I believe that is how Joe E. Brown ends that movie.

Re: Name that Film
Thanks Paul. Sometimes I scare myself.
This is probably too easy, but I like the quote and find myself using it a lot, usually in shorter form.
There's always an Arquillian Battle Cruiser, or a Corillian Death Ray, or an intergalactic plague that is about to wipe out all life on this miserable little planet, and the only way these people can get on with their happy lives is that they DO NOT KNOW ABOUT IT!

I love that film, "What' like I'm a clown, here to amuse you?". Brilliant scene, good old Pesci.

Correct. I think that's my favourite scene in any gangster movie.

Re: Name that Film
After all these years, I just watched it for the first time. Great to see all the famous faces pop up - all the blues legends as well as Twiggy - she was/is hot!Gregor Andrews wrote:The Blues Brothers?Wolfmiester wrote:ok then;

Growing up in the 80s, it was all my mates talked about - quoting lines from the film, but I never got around to watching it back then.

Good to see you are beating each other to the correct answer by a few seconds now, just like a rowing challenge.

Re: Name that Film
If it's any consolation, Paul, it's an hour earlier where you are, so really you beat me to the answer by around 59.5 minutes.
Great film by the way, Dr. Strangelove (or to call him by his real name, Dr. Merkwurdigliebe).
I'm not a film buff at all, so it was not that easy to think of a new quote.
"Is it safe?"
