Zea Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 There's plenty of catchy tag lines throughout many classic movies, i.e. "We're gonna need a bigger boat", from "JAWS"; "Leave the gun, take the canolis", from "THE GODFATHER". But it's that very last, lingering line we most remember and will quote years later. It stays w/you through the credits and beyond and is often integrated in all forms of future media. To say that I've got more than a couple, would be an egregious understatement. But to leave room for all your others, I'll limit myself to two for now: What are your favorite or most memorable classic last movie lines? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampersand Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Some Like It Hot (1959), even though the entire final scene is memorable, the last escalating exchange is just perfect. Nobody's perfect 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sepiatone Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 OK, first------ MY favorite line in THE GODFATHER is NOT the one about the gun and canolis. But rather--- "I don't want my brother coming out of that toilet with just his D**K in his hand!" But for the thread, all I can quickly come up with is from both PYGMALION and MY FAIR LADY---- "Where the devil are my slippers?" And in true "Sepiaform", I'll be hit with more later on after signing off the forum. Sepiatone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, Ham, while it's a well remembered line it's not the last one in the film. "After all, tomorrow is another day," is the final line, as said by Scarlett. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
