Name that Film

Very simple.

Put up a line from a film.

The person who guesses the film (sans Google or other engine) - gets to put up another line (which may be assisted by Google)

For example - an easy starter.

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning"

Score extra point for including associated trivia and remember that this is easier than rowing. :twisted:

Apocalypse Now (Francis Ford Coppola directed & Martin Sheen had a heart attack during filming?)

Correct.

Like I said an easy opener.

Try to keep it clean (and preferably in English).

Another easy opener then...

"You're gonna need a bigger boat"

Jaws

Another easy one to keep things rolling:

Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world...

Nope - need to go back a few more years (1980's)

Following Paul's line of thought, is it maybe:
Close encounters of the third kind?

Hmmm - I thought this would be very easy but I guess the "they're easy when you know them" rule applies.

You are not right Rodger - but again, a good guess.

Another guess, then:
Independence Day?
