Movie Trivia Thread

"Wrists are for girls, I'm slitting my throat" is from Ginger Snaps and spoken by Ginger. Good choice, I have all three films on dvd.

From a film with some great cinematography...


"Don't look at Jacgues as if he was a human being, he comes from another planet."

[Hyo shin]

"Don't look at Jacques as if he was a human being, he comes from another planet."

Enzo in Le Grand Bleu.

From another Canadian horror movie:

"Thirty seconds after you're born you have a past and sixty seconds after that you begin to lie to yourself about it."

[Jennpurr]

That's Juliana from The Brood

Other truth is, my brother's in prison, my sister cheats on welfare by pretending one of her babies is still alive, my daddy's dead, and my momma weighs 312lbs. If I was thinking straight I'd go back home, find a used trailer, buy a deep fryer and some oreos. Problem is, this the only thing I ever felt good doing. If I'm too old for this then I got nothing. That enough truth to suit you?

That's Maggie in Million Dollar Baby, finally out on dvd next week btw.


Back to obscure Canadian movies


"There are things that have to be said to advance the plot and establish the characters, and those things get said whether you want to say them or not. Don't fight it. Just avoid it."

[seurat]

"I mean, I'm a wheelchair girl now. And it's hard to pretend that I'm a beautiful rock star. Remember, Daddy?"

That's from the hauntingly beautiful The Sweet Hereafter, spoken by the equally beautiful Sarah Polley.

I feel like I should be saying Canadian movies for 400, Alex.


Here's another one ...

"Without music, life would be a mistake."

Here's another one ...

"Without music, life would be a mistake."

Ahem... that's Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche's.

Which they used in the film When Night is Falling, and spoken by Petra.

Since you recognized the quote anyway, I think you're up.

The thread is dying so you may need to clue us in on that one

~Lou

[Jennpurr]

I know. I was going to anyway, but thank you for bumping the thread back up. I thought that one may have been hard, so I'll give you the answer and do a simple one to get it going again.

My last one was from Dark Water. The line was said by, Dahlia, played by Jennifer Connelly. Excellent movie, I might add.

K. Here's the new one. This one should be easier.


Chewing gum is really gross. Chewing gum I hate the most.

That's Alex Reid as Beth in The Descent

An old-ish movie now...

"I think it's brilliant! What an idea! And I was there! He took the idea! He saw it ripe on the tree, he plucked it, and he put it in his pocket. It's, it's, dare I say... genius? Ah, no, no! But maybe, ooh! ah! maybe it is! Maybe I'm in the presence of greatness, maybe I just don't know it. But I saw it..."

[boomstick79]

That's a rather big nosed Steve Martin in Roxanne

"The Emperor... wants to conquer outer space. Yoda... wants to explore inner space. That's the fundamental difference between the good...and the dark side... of the Force."

~Lou

[Jennpurr]

That's Moff from Human Traffic, right?

I was going for the rat. Normally, I have a very sweet disposition as a dog. In fact, more than once, James suggested that I make the change permanent. The tail I could live with. But the fleas? They're murder.

That one is probably too easy, but what the heck.

Bobby Boucher in "The Waterboy" (did you just watch that, Marie? It was on TV. LOL)

What if I told you insane was working fifty hours a week in some office for fifty years at the end of which they tell you to piss off; ending up in some retirement village hoping to die before suffering the indignity of trying to make it to the toilet on time? Wouldn’t you consider that to be insane?

[Beamer311]

Steve Buschemi as Garland Green in Con Air

I know I've made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you.
