"The bourguignon was just a little tough."

"Maybe the way you are eating your jaws are getting tired."

"Speaking of overworked jaws, why don't you treat yours to a sabbatical and fetch me a wine list?"

"This is all they have."

"This? The last time I saw a specimen like this, they had to shoot the horse!"

"How lucky can you get? In one evening a Rockefeller... and a Groucho Marx."

"Oh, they didn't shoot a real horse... just a costume with two waiters in it."

"I shall think of a sharp retort while I am getting your roast chicken."

"It's a wise man who knows when to throw in the towel."

"And it is a moron who gives advice to a horse's arse."

"Are you impugning this lady's integrity?"

"She's impugning my salad."

"Apparently the mob doesn't find homosexuality to be an acceptable lifestyle... "

"Kill him, but mustn't kiss him."

"I know what you're thinking... and you ought to be ashamed of yourself."

"What are you doing?"

"I am, uh, helping you to stand up!"

"That's funny, I thought I *was* standing up!"

"Maybe you'd like to lie down."

"You're confusing me!"

"I might want to play some golf."

"Boss, it's snowing outside!"

"We'll use red balls."

"He's fantastic."

"He's a phony."

"What do you mean?"

"If he's a Polish count, I'm Greta Garbo."

"Well, Greta, whatever he is, I think he's divine."

"In spite of what you think, Monsieur Labisse, there are professions where practice *does* make perfect. ..."

"What in hell was that?"

"B flat."

"You promised to pay me on Tuesday, then on Wednesday, then on Thursday..."

"What's that?"

"What?"

"Spaghetti?"

"Uh, yes, with meatballs."

"I'll sleep with you for a meatball."

"You would?"

"Oh, missed your chance."

"it's anybody's guess what I could end up with."

"Oh, I'd guess about thirty days."

"If all goes well, I expect to leave here poor, but sated. I have a... a bug in my purse. At the appropriate moment it goes in my salad."

"It'll never work."

"A bug in my salad?"

"In a place like this, it would be an even if there WASN'T a bug in your salad."

"What about a... cockroach?"

"A cockroach!"

"Shhh! Bigger than your thumb!"

"Ew, God! "

"I just find it hard to believe that you're a man."

"Because you found me attractive as a woman?"

"Yes, as a matter of fact."

"That happens frequently."

"Not to me."

"Just proves the old adage: "There's a first time for everything." "

"I don't think so."

"But you're not a hundred per cent sure?"

"Practically."

"Ah, but to a man like you, someone who believes he could never, under any circumstances find another man attractive, the margin between "practically" and "for sure" must be as wide as the Grand Canyon. "

The bug in the salad gave it away. Most of these lines involved Julie Andrews and Robert Preston trying to scam a meal.

"Victor, Victoria."

George

[MaddyWolf]

I must have been hungry when posting the quotes. I didn't realise how many of them involved food.

You are right, most quotes involved Victoria and Toddy. Although there are also quotes with Victoria's landlord, King Marchand, Squash, the Chez Lui's owner and 3 of the dancers from "Victor" 's show...

As you guessed it, it's your turn now, George. :)

[Lifted Up]

Oldie, please, another oldie for this oldie!

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"A man can't turn tail and run just because a little personal risk is involved. What did Shakespeare say? "Cowards die a thousand deaths, the brave man... only 500"?"

"It's as clear as a buttonhook in the well water!"

"So what the heck? You're welcome! Join us at the picnic! You can eat your fill of all the food you bring yourself."

George

[Lifted Up]

Did I con you into that one with my last post?

Not that I know all the oldies; I am still swimming in shame at not getting "The Great Escape".

gotta be "The Music Man". Never saw it on stage, but sure did on the screen as a kid.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

You got it, Mr. Up! "Music Man" it is.

Your turn.

George

[WordWolf]

Aw, fudge. I was planning on using that one next.

[Lifted Up]

"If I were my father, I'd have you tortured"

"No. If you were your father, I doubt very much if I would have kissed you".

More to come today if no one gets it from this in the next few hours.

...SPECIAL FOR WORDWOLF...

"The Beautician and the Beast"?

[Lifted Up]

"The Beautician and the Beast"?

George

Nope. For my next entry, should I go with another quote, or a time pinning hint, or another type of hint?

[Lifted Up]

"If I were my father, I'd have you tortured"

"No. If you were your father, I doubt very much if I would have kissed you".

"Any idea how we get out of here?"

"I don't know. I've been all over this place. I've been up this street, up that one, up that one. How are we gonna get out here?"

"Why don't you try the high road up there?"

"Okay. I'll take the high road, you take the low road. So long."

[Lifted Up]

This is not an obscure movie. The first one I thought of, the original 1959 "Journey to the Center of the Earth" was, I think, and I did not use it for that reason. This one is a classic of its kind, better IMO than any of its several sequels/spinoffs.

[Lifted Up]

Oh, good, I see George logged in today; I bet he'll get it.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Not yet!

George

[Lifted Up]

"If I were my father, I'd have you tortured"

"No. If you were your father, I doubt very much if I would have kissed you".

"Any idea how we get out of here?"

"I don't know. I've been all over this place. I've been up this street, up that one, up that one. How are we gonna get out here?"

"Why don't you try the high road up there?"

"Okay. I'll take the high road, you take the low road. So long."

"At times like this, I wish I was but a simple peasant."

"It's times like this that make me realize how lucky I really am."

"I've never really known another man like him. He can keep ten girls in the air at once and make each one happy."

"Amazing, sort of a contemporary Don Juan?"

I saw this movie because it was recommended to our class by my favorite Hindu, Mr. Evans, my 8th grade algebra teacher. He said it was much better than a well known satire flick which was playing at the same time.

If no one gets this by tomorrow, I guess I will resort to the semi-givaway kind of clues. I know in all courtesy when you-re up on this thread, you have a certain duty...

"Well, who owns the most fabulous diamond in the world?"

"I suppose I do."

"When the present government seized power, they claimed the diamond was the property of the people. There's even some talk of the international court deciding the issue."

"I'll tell you what, why don't I steal the diamond, leave that old glove or whatever it is behind, and you and I can split the insurance."

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Casino Royale" (the original one)?

George

[Lifted Up]

Nope...

"I am willing to bet you ten thousand francs, that the phantom is in Cortina at this very moment. Even, perhaps, in this very room."

"How exciting. What do you think, Mr. Tucker?"

"Oh, I agree with the inspector. You see, Ten of his last fifteen victims have been guests at Angela Dunning's parties."

"What are we all talking about?"

"The notorious Phantom."

"I'm afraid I never heard of him."

"From the little I've read about him, he seems to be quite a fellow."

"Believe me. There are few thieves who are as clever as the Phantom. Each theft is completely different and unique, classic in its conception."

"I thought you were working on the theory that he does repeat himself."

"Well, only as far as Angela Dunning's parties are concerned. However, there is one other duplication, but that is his ah... trademark, his calling card, so to speak. He always leaves a white monogrammed glove."

"Sounds terribly theatrical."

The biggest names in this movie are its star and its composer, with the composer IMO having a bit of an edge.

I was hoping someone could get this today. I may be too busy to post next couple of days. Not that I will be playing the stock market. besides having no money to do so, I couldn't deal with all those buyers and *******.

[now I see]

Is it the Pink Panther?

[Lifted Up]

Is it the Pink Panther?

yea, George must not've seen it, or not seen it enough.

Your turn!!!

[now I see]

Er...thanks....George is the "master" alright.....were you trying to stump him? It was the mention of the glove that gave it away for me....if he'd have seen it, he would have guessed it, I can always delete my answer so we can see if he does guess it?
