Favorite movie quotes....HIpChik

Here are some of my favorites: OK – I am a chick, so I HAVE to get in my one line from a chick-flick in. From Stepmom – time for a good cry movie – this is brilliant writing:

Isabel: Look down the road to her wedding. I'm in a room alone with her, fixing her veil, fluffing her dress, telling her no woman has ever looked so beautiful. And my fear is she'll think, "I wish my mom were here."

Jackie Harrison: And my fear is... she won't.

From Jerry Maguire:

Laurel Boyd: Don't cry at the beginning of a date -- cry at the end, like I do.

Fargo – my absolute favorite movie, ever. They are investigating the murder and Mr. Mohra calls the police with the following information:

Mr. Mohra: So, I'm tendin' bar there at Ecklund and Swedlin's last Tuesday and this little guy's drinkin' and he says, "So where can a guy find some action? I'm goin' crazy out there at the lake." And I says, "What kinda action?" and he says, "Woman action, what do I look like?" And I says, "Well, what do *I* look like, I don't arrange that kinda thing," and he says, "I'm goin' crazy out there at the lake," and I says, "Well, this ain't that kinda place."

Officer Olson: Uh-huh

Mr. Mohra: So he says, "So I get it, so you think I'm some kinda jerk for askin'," only he doesn't use the word jerk.

Officer Olson: I understand.

Mr. Mohra: And then he calls me a jerk and says the last guy who thought he was a jerk was dead now. So I don't say nothin' and he says, "What do ya think about that?" So I says, "Well, that don't sound like too good a deal for him then."

And, Money Pit – the kind of movie that Tom Hanks no longer claims as his own, BUT I STILL LOVE it. The stairs fall down only to have Tom Hanks’ character holding on to the upstairs floor, with his wife standing on his fingers. Later that evening, she is fumbling around with the mattress and he says: (I use this line on my husband all the time)

Walter: I’d help you with that, but someone stepped on all my fingers.

AND:

Anna: "That is such a dumb idea. Sometimes it amazes me you ever passed the bar."

Walter: "I'm not surprised. You've never passed a bar in your life."

Anna: "You are so much less attractive when I'm sober."

Walter: "Thank goodness it's not that often."
