A game I liberated from Mo:
The Rules:
1. Pick 10 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb (Internet Movie Database) and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Indicate when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. No Googling or IMDb-ing. (That would be cheating, and no fun!)
Ready to Play?
1. "What kind of pie?" THE WAY WE WERE
2. "Leave the gun. Take the cannoli." THE GODFATHER
3. "Jean Louise, stand up. Your father's passing." TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD
4. "I'd buy some furniture and give the cat a name!" BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S
5. "Nine million terrorists and I gotta kill one with feet smaller than my sister!" DIE HARD
6. "You know, you can say it backwards, which is 'dociousaliexpiisticfagilcalirupes.'" MARY POPPINS
7. "Sometimes nothing can be a really cool hand." COOL HAND LUKE
8. "She's a drag. A well-known drag. We turn the sound down on her and say rude things." A HARD DAY'S NIGHT
9. "Pick me out a winner, Bobby." THE NATURAL
10. "Land is the only thing in the world worth working for, worth fighting for, worth dying for, because it's the only thing that lasts." GONE WITH THE WIND
BONUS QUESTION: One performer uttered two of these lines (in two different movies). Who is it? ROBERT REDFORD (#1 AND #9)
If you choose to play, let me know so I can come visit and see how I do with your quotes.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
Those are great. The temptation is too much for me to google...
ReplyDeleteOhhhh...I *think* I know 5,6 & 7, but I'll only guess at one (for now!)
ReplyDelete#5 (only because I came across it when picking one of MY lines) is from "Die Hard", I do believe.
(#6..."Mary Poppins"??)<<- ok, two.
I know #3 is from "To Kill a Mockingbird." I *think* #10 is from "Gone With the Wind." I did this awhile back on my blog, but I liked it so much I might do another one. If I do, I'll let you know.
ReplyDeleteI had popped in the other day and saw these but didn't have time to comment. I didn't Know AnY!! haha but now that I see the answers of course I'm saying OH YEAH, that's where its from!
ReplyDeleteThe cannoli one I KNEW I KNEW from somewhere, but I was thinking Bronx tale! great post!
