Mmmmmm...you are so right. A wonderful Noir with Joseph Cotten as the intense police inspector, the uber-suave Charles Boyer as Paula's tormenting husband, Ingrid Bergman as the victim who eventually finds her strength...and the film debut (I do believe), of a 17 year-old Angela Lansbury as the schemeing, sexy maid who helps with the deception.
Nice to meet you, Oldies, and...of course...your turn!
Burt: I figure a man’s like a blade of grass, he grows up in the spring, strong healthy and green, then he reaches middle age, and he ripens as it were, and then in the autumn he, like a blade of grass he finishes, fades away and he never comes back, just like a blade of grass
Burt: you know, I read something once years ago, and I learned it by heart, Theodore Roosevelt said it, he said: it’s not the critic that counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or when the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena ...
I finally googled this one. It does star a famous actor and was released during my lifetime, though I don't recall it appearing in theaters. (Oldies, I don't think that gives much away -- I've been around 50 years.)

Crimson Tide?

I'm guessing that WW won't mind my adding a clue: the movie starred Danny Kaye. George

Once again, you posted a quote from a movie, where you could have posted 1/2 the script without me getting it, except for the one quote you posted. This was from early on in "Red Dawn."
