My favorite movie quote is: "Frankly my dear, I could give a damn"
The actor was Clark Gable as Rhett Butler and he said it to Vivien Leigh as Scarlett O'Hara.
Now without using Google or a similar search engine; What is the movie?

I thought it was "don't" not "could", but the movie is Gone With the Wind.

The workers of Fredonia are demanding shorter hours.
Very well. We'll give them shorter hours. We'll start by making their lunch hour 40 minutes.

I'll bet you'ld think that if I dropped this cannon ball and this feather at the same time, that the cannon ball would land first....................and you'ld be absolutely right.

I do believe you are correct with the don't versus could.
The movie name is correct and first played years before I was born.
Seems to me it took place in Charleston where I once lived for a few months.

And here I was racking my brain for some movie (maybe a spoof?) where the same two actors played the same two characters but delivered the line with a subtly wrong change. I guess that's what you get when you tend to over-think things.

I have actually watched this movie and even read the original book within the past year.

A surprising number of classic movies were released in 1939; can you think of another very famous movie from 1939 and, without naming it, give a quote from it that establishes that you have the right movie.

(BTW, it only came out 4 years before *I* was born. That's not so long ago.)

"What we have here is failure to communicate."

And one of my favorite quotes from one of my least favorite movies:
"These go to eleven"

[Bazzer]

"Let them Sing" Hunt for Red October. Of Course to say this properly you must speak Connerese. "Let them Shing"

"Spam in a can" The Right Stuff

"Huston We have a problem" Apollo 13

"you're clear kid, let's blow this joint and go home" Star Wars

And my favorite quote from a TV shows
"smeghead" Red Dwarf
"Some say, he knows two fact about ducks....... and both are wrong" Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear when talking about the Stig.

These were about that time in the a movie made in North Africa:
Play it once, Sam. For old times' sake. - Ingrid Bergman
Here's looking at you, kid. - Humphrey Bogart
Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine. - Humphrey Bogart

I'm thinking "...and your little dog Toto too"

Casablanca (1942) is not quite so old as GWTW and the movie I am thinking of.

1939 was a blockbuster year for movies. Over 1500 of them are listed on IMdB. The list of first ten that I am looking at has only one movie that I am not familiar with, and that is not usually considered a classic. Out of the first fifty, I have only not-seen 6 or 7.

Think: "xxxx, we're not in xxxxxx anymore."

[--Pete]

Scott has it.

Check out this LIST. You will be astounded at the number of famous movies that came out in this single year.

Connerese My sister and I always laugh about what Sean Connery might order for breakfast: "Shereal, Shpecial K pleash. Eggsh. Shaushagesh. Bishcuitsh. What do you need my Shocial Shecurity Number for?"

Top Gear is my favorite television show..................................................... in the world when they added it to Netflix I almost cried.

I like this quote from both a movie and a television show:
Samuel L. Jackson, A Time To Kill: "Yes they deserve to die! And I hope the burn in Hell!"
Dave Chappelle, Chappelle's Show, playing Samuel L. Jackson: "YES THEY DESERVE TO DIE, AND I HOPE THEY BURN IN HELL!!"

Just finished the last episode on Netflix last night. Now what do I make kites to??????????????????

[SkyPuppet]

I often have the Netflix on when I'm working.......

Thru all the Top Gear on Netflix?? Start playing through the music documentaries! A to Zepplin is a great place to start

Time to start watching old episodes of The A-Team and Mission Impossible

Round it out with some Blue Planet or the Life of Birds, or some other documentary
