Think of a movie you love and post some dialogue...
Offer a hint as to the context, the lighting or soundtrack, describe a scene...
Other posters have to figure out the movie
I will start:
A few dudes are going fishing...
'Were going to need a bigger boat'
Driver talking to cop in stopped car:
Only two things in the world I'm scared of
cop:Only scared of two things, what's that?
Women and the police.
"White Lightning"
Stout flick. Has a tilt to it of a semi documentary. Touches a lot of bases in the running time. Sharp edged.
Beatty is on fire there.
Sold as a good old boy fun time. Ain't none of that. It's murderous at the core and it spends a lot of time loitering that core. Reynolds keeps his nose to grindstone & delivered this---whole.
Beatty perfectly cast
shareYes. He was flawless.
& the part where Reynolds comes across the young college kids in the diner and gently queries them about his brother. They're shy and so beautiful. It's a wonderful scene.
& when he has pangs of guilt and tosses his little notebook into the fire.
Bo Hopkins is at his prime. "Rockford Files" will come a knockin' soon. Then "Midnight Express." It's all in front of him.
R.G. Armstrong lights up the screen, just dominates it.
Reynolds trying to seduce Louise Latham in order to get information. The production caught her just right there. Still beautiful, she's extraordinary in that scene. In that pale yellow summer dress.
Good citation, yatz,,,I can remember sitting in the theater watching this damn thing...45 years ago. I God's. I ain't got another 45 left.
“Now I know why they call you gator ha-haah” (Burt’s iconic laugh)
shareYep, the venerable "Lou." She'd passed thru that home for unwed mothers long ago, or, what seemed so long ago by then. It's a complete movie, a complete story told in a 100 mins.
Beatty, wrestlin with civil rights & changing times. And they don't dwell on it, or, take forever to get to it & thru it, or, judge it. They leave that to us. And his lawyer is fantastic:::"It-can't-be-like-it-was." Man, especially American man can never get that boiler plate thru our thick skulls....i.e., "J.C." doesn't hear a word he's telling him.
& Matt Clark rises up and is equal to the task. Injects vibrancy into the role & film. He's so upset that it's palpable.
Hot damn, yatz, thanks for citing this film. It's made my day. So many good memories. The thoughtful music throughout, some of it very beautiful, as I recall, causing introspection by & of the Cubster. And the sound effects when he rips off the bandages there at the end and takes off in his souped up sedan.
Makes my heart beat like a trip hammer.
You got it, yatz, a Tuesday afternoon Direct Hit. Tip O' the tam, yatz, bowin' at the waist.
The old yatz comin' thru for the Cubby!!!
Yr welcome
I miss the 70s
This is an easy one,,,the scene has intensive puking from multiples "Issues" and not from seasickness, well perhaps partially from sea sickness.
Two-2-Two lines:
Character One: "God be with you."
Character Two: "I will see you on the beach."
ID my use of "Issues" as completion.
Bully threatening our hero:
"So, why don't you make like a tree and get outta here?"
Back to the Future
shareJeez, Mitch. How many times have you seen that movie? 10 Times???
shareVery funny. Ha Ha. Maybe twice. A memorable scene.
shareI know. I'm also a comedian in my spare time. I'm very versatile.
shareI had it coming to me. Sorry about the criticism.
shareYes, you did!😜
I've probably seen Back to the Future 10 times as well throughout my life. I can't believe you've only seen if twice, it's such a classic!
Once I see a movie, I am more or less finished with it. I am not a big rewatch guy. I am always on the look for movies I have not seen. Last night I watched 'To Sir, with Love' for the first time.
shareOkay, interesting. Personally, I love to rewatch movies I love. Not more than once a year, because that kinda ruins it. BTTF is one of those movies I can't help but watch every time it's on tv.
shareI didn't figure you that-a-way, howie. My wife is like that. It's the end of the world when I want her to join me in watching something again. Even when she does it I can feel bad vibes coming from her chair area.
shareComedy western featuring Terence Hill and Henry Fonda
"The secret to long life is to try not to shorten it." [paraphrased]
A skilled gunslinger in his own right (Hill) wants to get his idol (Fonda) in the history books by overcoming a "wild bunch" who have loads of dynamite in their saddle bags.
*Title refers to the main character's name.
*Also features a cover version of Richard Wagner's 'Ride of the Valkyries'
Either My Name Is Trinity or They Call Me Trinity , I think - ???
shareSo close, though those two films co-starred Bud Spencer, just a couple of years off, released in 73'.
Here's a brief summary:
Jack Beauregard (Henry Fonda) is an aging gunslinger who wants to retire peacefully to Europe. Three gunmen attempt to ambush him in a barbershop. After he has dispatched them, the barber's son asks his father if there is anyone in the world faster than Beauregard, to which the barber replies, "Faster than him? [spoiler]Nobody!"[/spoiler]

I saw it within the past year , but I cannot recall its name
Terence really surprised me in his Tv show , Father Matteo - showing he could also act in a dramatic role
I never seen Father Matteo, but it sounds interesting, thanks for the recommendation. I'm mostly familiar with him from his westerns, great at saying a lot in so few words through his body language and expressions. I can sense you know what it is so you've earned it at this point:
My Name is Nobody
Nobody: [reads the names on the crosses in the Indian cemetery] Sam Peckinpah. That's a beautiful name in Navajo.
great movie - him & his brother Bud (r.i.p.) were also good in Miami Supercops - not on the same level as the westerns by any means , but still good.
