Thomas. That monologue was adapted from 'Forgiving our Fathers,' by Dick Lourie.

This was the film version--

quote:
How do we forgive our fathers? Maybe in a dream. Do we forgive our fathers for leaving us too often or forever? Maybe for scaring us with unexpected rage, or making us nervous because there never seemed to be any rage there at all? Do we forgive our fathers for marrying or not marrying our mothers? For divorcing or not divorcing our mothers? And shall we forgive them for their excesses of warmth or coldness? Shall we forgive them for pushing or leaning? For shutting doors? For speaking through walls, or never speaking, or never being silent? Do we forgive our fathers in our age or in theirs? Or in their deaths? Saying it to them or not saying it? If we forgive our fathers, what is left?

This seems like a fun game. Can anyone just put in a quote, or only if you guess the last quote correctly?

Eh, well, I'll add one anyway, see what you guys think.

"Sardines, sardines!"

Find that one, hehe. [Evil]

The Bishop's Wife/The Preacher's Wife/Every Woman Needs and Angel (First one is original, second two are remakes)--Dont remember who said it...

EDIT-I don't know if they said it in the remakes, I never saw them...

Excellent, Damien!

Javert - I think anyone could start the next quote and who said it, not necessarily the correct answerer of the last one. Whayt do y'all think? Or would it be more fun to restrict it to the person answering correctly . . . details, details.

And NO ONE is allowed to ask where and who on the "nothing" quote. Absolutely not!!!! [Razz]

For some reason I thought that the "that's the beauty of it" quote was from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy... But I have no way of making sure, as my book's 40 miles away.

Noises Off as spoken (a lot) by Dotty. Great show.

Try this rarity:

I'll have to take exception to the content of the quote. A survey of non-English speakers yielded "diarrhea" as the most fair. But I think my mom told me that one, as opposed to an actual professional Linguist.

Actually it was Karen Pomeroy, Drew Barrymore's character (wasn't it? Checks head). Noah's character was the science teacher. But good job on figuring "Darko."

Okay - here's a pathetically easy one.

"Play it again, Sam."

List the number of times this was actually said and the correct order in which actor/esses said it. Oh - and name the movie. (Standing on your head, twirling your thumbs, wiggling your ears.)

http://www.gihanperera.com/home/casablanca.html

quote:
Rick: You know what I want to hear.
Sam: No, I don't.
Rick: You played it for her, you can play it for me.
Sam: Well, I don't think I can remember -
Rick: If she can stand it, I can. Play it.

quote:
Ilsa: Play it once, Sam. For old time's sake.
Sam: I don't know what you mean, Miss Ilsa.
Ilsa: Play it, Sam. Play As Time Goes By.

However, there are a suprising amount of movie cliches in Casablanca. Most of them in the last scene:

quote:
Rick: I'm saying it because it's true. Inside of us, we both know you belong with Victor. You're part of his work - the thing that keeps him going. If that plane leaves the ground and you're not with him, you'll regret it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon. And for the rest of your life.
Ilsa: What about us?
Rick: We'll always have Paris. We didn't have - we lost it until you came to Casablanca. We got it back last night.
Ilsa: When I said I would never leave you ...
Rick: And you never will. But I've got a job to do, too. And where I'm going you can't follow. What I've got to do, you can't be any part of. Ilsa, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. Some day you'll understand that. Here's looking at you, kid.
Laszlo: Welcome back to the fight. This time I know our side will win.

Louis: I'll have to arrest you, of course.
Rick: As soon as the plane goes, Louis.

Louis: Round up the usual suspects.

Rick: Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Edit: Of course, they're cliches now because the movie was so darn good.

And you'll note, like I said, that "Play it again, Sam" is never actually said.

I'd imagine that "Play it again, Sam" has been said in quite a few movies, even if none of them, as BtL pointed out, is Casablanca.

I'm sure it's not right, but Don Herzfeld's short film "Lily and Jim" has a similar line....

Lily: Do you drink coffee?
Jim: Uh... no, not really.
Lily: Oh... because I thought maybe we could go back to my apartment for some coffee or something.
Jim: I would love some coffee.

It's an absolutely hilarious little film, if you ever get a chance to see it. [Big Grin]
