This is one of my favorite quotable movies. May I mention my favorite line:

"I just LOVE TRAINS!"

Yours?

You ... fascinate me!

anything that happens in the courtroom is totally hilarious, especially the scene with the Baron. Also, when they're trying to arrange to have Marylin killed and are fretting over the legal jargon to make sure they're protected.

"Will ya be renting kilts?" The Scottish clergyman was hilarious.

I've always wanted to be a June Bride...

"What? Have you forgotten 'Kirschner'?"

and

"Heinz the Baron Krauss von Espy! Heinz the Baron Krauss von Espy! Heinz the Baron Krauss von Espy!"

It's so cleverly silly that I laugh out loud every time I watch this wonderful film.

Rex: My wife has me between a rock and a hard place.
Miles Massey: That's her job. You should respect that.

I crack up at the tone Clooney uses on that line :D

If my answers frighten you then you should cease asking scary questions.

Even more funny out of context as a random quote: "Let the record show that the Baron has identified Rex Rexroth as the silly man!"

reply

Haaa! :)

I really have to go with, "Are you...Wheezy Joe?"

reply

The "Silly Man" quote is seconded!

I liked everything Gus Petch says about nailing asses.

"Yup.. I nailed his ass."

"What are you talking about? 'Tell Tale Signs'? Look, I see a ass. I nail it. I don't sneak around sniffing the sheets. God damn it! I'm Gus Petch!"

"You want tact, call a tactician. You want a ass nailed, you call Gus Petch."
