A little fun with movie quotes.

Not a big fan of Dr. Zhivago -- I think it promotes/glorifies adultery, so I have a problem with it from that standpoint.

But I did see it a couple of times, so the quote finally clicked in my head.

 

[Pemican]

"Now you listen to me, I'm an advertising man, not a red herring. I've got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex-wives and several bartenders that depend upon me, and I don't intend to disappoint them all by getting myself "slightly" killed."

This sounds like a Gregory Peck line.....I'm going to guess ..... "Arabesque'

Very close! One word off. Support your local _____?

Sheriff, the two movies were pretty much the same..........but, yes, it was the Sheriff one...........

Who do you think is running Congress? Farmers? Engineers? Teachers? Businessmen? No, my friends. Congress is run by lawyers. A lawyer is trained for two things and two things only. To clarify - that's one. And to confuse - that's the other. He does whichever is to his client's advantage. Did you ever ask a lawyer the time of day? He told you how to make a watch, didn't he? Ever ask a lawyer how to get to Mr. Jones' house in the country? You got lost, didn't you? Congress is composed of five hundred and thirty-five individuals. Two hundred and eighty-eight are lawyers. And you wonder what's wrong in Congress. No wonder we often know how to make a watch, but we don't know the time of day.

You got it! That was a funny movie! James Garner was a great actor.

Nope, sorry, not a Gregory Peck line (although I agree with you, it DOES sound like him). Think Cary Grant...

 

[mailmandan]

Think Cary Grant...

Since you mentioned Cary Grant, it's now ringing a bell! Is it North by Northwest?

Yes! Good Job!

Here's another classic:

"You think I'm licked. You all think I'm licked. Well, I'm not licked. And I'm going to stay right here and fight for this lost cause. Even if the room gets filled with lies like these, and the Taylors and all their armies come marching into this place."

um, methinks I hearz Jimmy Stewart...............hehe.............but will see who gets the title of the movie

"I shall call him squishy, and he shall be mine, he shall by my squishy."

"The only thing that separates us from the animals is our ability to accessorize."

"As you wish."

 

[santuzza]

[santuzza]

"Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera!"

Never rub another mans rhubarb!

lol...within its circles, it's pretty famous, but here ya go:

"Grandpa, maybe you could come over and read it again to me tomorrow?"

"As you wish."

From one of my favorite movies....should be pretty easy cuz of the clue in the quote:

"The kid gets it all. Just plant us in the damned garden with the stupid lion."

 

[MollyConnor]

"Avoid using the word "very" because it's lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don't use very sad, use remorse. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do."
