Sorry Robert, those particular movies you mention are lacking the common thing shared by my movie and The Last Detail, Top Gun, The Sand Pebbles, Mister Roberts, Officer & Gentleman, Caine Mutiny, They Were Expendable, Operation Petticoat and In Harm's Way.

Chris? You are enjoying this, right? B*stard ;-) Héhé

Hah! Keep trying!

Mike: "If ya have to jump in after him, I'll stick around until the Hornet sends one of its copters!"

Nestor: "He looks froze! I'll have to go down!"

"The Bridges at Toko-Ri"(sp) ?

Bingo! Finally, we have a winnah! Well, it was a good run while it lasted. Heh.

Grumble Grumble...and some mumbling under my breath.

It took the helicopter clue for me to finally get it Chris.

Here's mine:

"I knew a man who was stabbed to death by a woman; gave him the surprise of his life. "
"I once knew a woman who was beaten to death by a man. I don't think it surprised *her* at all."

I take from the clue that it is a Navy piece... but I am drawing a blank on 1950's Navy movies... anyone else?

The Duellists!! I just saw this recently! There was a Ridley Scott "Directors" show on cable and he went in depth about making his first picture. (those "Directors" shows are really good) I decided to Netflix it because I love almost all his films...it has a commentary of Ridley on the DVD too. I personally didn't like the picture to much, but it might just need another viewing.

Hah I knew there were too many Ridley Scott fans here. That didn't take long. Go ahead, Chris.

I love this film....so, I'm going to give a bonus line (hint):

Okay, stand aside, you guys! You're usin' up my oxygen...................

"But I tried. Goddammit, I sure as hell did that much. Didn't I?"

Bonus line (hint):

"I can put a bug so far up her ass, she don't know whether to shit or wind her wristwatch."

one flew over the cuckoo's nest :-)

It was to easy, I know....just wanted to move the game along. :)

Jack Nicolson has the best lines in all his movies!

100 percent sure I'm right so I'm going to give the next one

"What life? I got no life!... I'm in the dark here!!!.... do you understand.. I'm in the dark!!

"Scent of a Woman"?
