mr6666 Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 "I've snapped and plotted all my life. There's no other way to be alive, king, and fifty all at once. " --from what film? Link to post Share on other sites
cmvgor Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Peter O'Toole in The Lion in Winter "Now, Henry, you a rich man. And a rich man can't afford to go broke." Link to post Share on other sites
cmvgor Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Sunup til Midnight is long enough to wait. The "rich man" line was Walter Burke to James Garner in The Wheeler-Dealers. Maybe this one will be easier: "My career was cut short by a woman and a bank. She developed a taste for bonded bourbon; I robbed a bank." Link to post Share on other sites
daneldorado Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Sure sounds like "Jailhouse Rock" (1957). Dan Link to post Share on other sites
cmvgor Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 You nailed it, daneldorado. Mickey Shaughnessy to Elvis Presley. It is now your turn give a quote of your own. Take it away! Link to post Share on other sites
daneldorado Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Okay, why not try this one: "Do you remember Mr. Craverly? The biology teacher? Aw, it's terrible what happened to him. He went to this party and he met this girl. And she seemed kind of tired, sick maybe...." Name the movie, and the speaker of the quote.

cmvgor Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Not a clue. Someone else will have to answer that one. Link to post Share on other sites

He went to this party and he met this girl. And she seemed kind of tired, sick maybe...." Name the movie, and the speaker of the quote. Nobody? Okay, if it helps, the "Mr. Craverly" in the quote ends up taking the girl home with him, and they spend the night. That should light a few bulbs.

Okay, some more clues: This film was made in the late 20th century. And it involves the talents of FIVE (5) Oscar winners, plus two (2) Oscar nominees. Name the film, and the speaker of the quote.

Shasta66 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 The movie is Postcards From the Edge and the speaker is Dennis Quaid playing Jack Faulkner. I wanted to answer sooner but I couldn't come up with another quote!!! Try this one: "You be the host. It's your party. Happy birthday, welcome home, and we who are about to die salute you."

daneldorado Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Assuming my answer was right, here's a new quote for you: "A career is just fine, but it's no substitute for marriage. Don't you think a man is the most important thing in the world? A woman isn't a woman until she's been married and has children." Who said that, and in what film?

shejtmarku Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 i have a question. the quote is in regards to the usage of the term "indian sign." i've heard it used by bogie in "the big sleep" and recently joan crawford in "the woman." i'm guessing it's something to do w/bad luck or a jinx of sorts. any suggestions?
