ocemily Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Well actually my favourite version is the Gordon MacRae and Shirley Jones version, nobody can sing it as wonderful as them.

coolrob1955 Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 "The hand of God reaching down into the mire could not elevate you to the depths of degredation" I think that line is from 'Nothing Sacred'. It's a great line and I often use it myself with my employees to put then in their place. Try it, it works. Regards Link to post Share on other sites

Geniebeanie Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 From Monty Python's Holy Grail. "Bring out your dead, Bring out your dead" "Wait a minute I am not dead yet!" Bop! "Yes you are" As a lover of Python It is one of the best lines they ever wrote. Of course I do have a Python's sense of humor. I been watching them ever since they were on PBC.

LaraKathleen Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Plastics is always a fun one, just because people who have never seen The Graduate also wonder what in the world you are talking about. Also Cary Grant's "You remind me of a man. What man? A man with a power. What power? The power of who do. Who do? You do." My sister and I like to recite that with each other. Jimmy Stewart in Harvey-"Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" -- she always called me Elwood -- "In this world, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. And you may quote me." And as just a funny thing...in one of the new Star Wars films, I believe it is number 2, Obi Wan asks Annikan to send a message to Yoda for him, care of the old folks home, and yes is really is old folks home, my friends and I put on the sub titles.

McTeague Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 From The Thin Man (1934): Marion (Gertrude Short): "I don't like crooks. And if I did like 'em, I wouldn't like crooks that are stool pigeons. And if I did like crooks that are stool pigeons, I still wouldn't like you." I saw my first Powell and Loy on TCM a few weeks ago, and I'm hooked. Link to post Share on other sites

allycat1920 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I love the All About Eve line to, but its actually, "[fasten your seatbelts its going to be a bumpy night." You were close. Great line though Link to post Share on other sites
Wayne Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 From "The Producers" (1968) --- I forget exactly what it is that Dick Shawn is doing, but I believe he's sucking his thumb and holding a banana to his ear like a telephone, when we hear Zero Mostel holler from offscreen: "That's our Hitler!!!!!"

GarboManiac Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 I love it when, in Twentieth Century, Carole Lombard as Lily Garland is trying to explain her relationship with John Barrymore. He keeps an eye on everything she does and never lets her go anywhere: "Simply because he doesn't want me to mingle with what he calls riff-raff, and that?s everybody in the world except us two!"

shearerchic04 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 --Joan Crawford's line as Crystal Allen in The Women: There is a name for you, ladies, but it isn't used in high society... outside of a kennel. --Bette Davis in All About Eve: Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night! --Vivien Leigh in Gone With the Wind: Tara! Home. I'll go home. And I'll think of some way to get him back. After all... tomorrow is another day Link to post Share on other sites
GarboManiac Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Oh, yeah! I forgot about The Women. I loved it when Butterfly McQueen asks Crawford, "Will I find anything in that ice box of yours?" And, before Joan can answer, Virginia Grey says, "Yeah! Cobwebs and a bottle of Gin!" The other one I think was way ahead of its time was Cary Grant in Hepburn's flimsy feather covered robe in Bringing Up Baby. May Robson asks him, "Why are you wearing those clothes?" He answers, "Because I just went GAY all of a sudden!" Link to post Share on other sites
