8. What is your favorite movie quote? Can be more than one.
There are so many - but I choose these (again in random order) :
1.
Mr. Banks: “Winifred, where are the children?”
~ I simply adore MARY POPPINS (1964) - sometimes when I am with my sister and I haven't said anyhing for a few minutes (I tend to daydream..) she usually quotes this.. ~
2.
Elizabeth Imbrie: "We’ve come for the body of Macauly Connor."
C.K. Dexter Haven: "I’m so glad you came. Can you use a typewriter?"
Elizabeth Imbrie: "No, thanks. I’ve got one at home."
~ Elizabeth Imbrie of THE PHILADELPHIA STORY is one of my all-time favourite characters - maybe a little bit more if she is impersonated by the amazing Ruth Hussey.. and the dialogues are great in this play..~
3.
Miriam Aarons: "Well he could crack a coconut with those knees! - If he could get them together!"
~ Got to mention THE WOMEN (1939)! It’s full of awesome (and invidious) quotes - and amazing actresses. ~
4.
Susan Applegate (asked to speak Swedish): "I vant to be alone."
~ Hilarious! I like such film spoofs.. In case you do not know: It’s from THE MAJOR AND THE MINOR (1942)~
5.
Finally - these two people of CASABLANCA (1942) breake my heart - I am quite sentimental..:
Mr. Leuchtag: "Liebchen - sweetnessheart, what watch?"
Mrs. Leuchtag: "Ten watch."
Mr. Leuchtag: "Such watch?"
Carl: "Hm. You will get along beautiful in America, mm-hmm."
There are so many beautiful/classic lines from Casablanca.
ReplyDeleteI love The Major and the Minor...that is a cute line from that film.
I have never seen The Women. Hard to believe...but true.
Thanks for sharing, Irene.
