Did a 6 hour ride today, and among the strange random thoughts, I tried to decide on my favorite all time movie line. I have a two way tie.
What we have here is a failure to communicate.
We’re gonna need a bigger boat.
"What we have here is a failure to communicate. "
A Paul Newman movie about the deep south. Can’t remember the name at the moment.
Don’t recognize the other but I’ll guess “African Queen”, although it sounds like something that might have been said on Noah’s Arc.
a) Hud b) Jaws (the original with Roy Schneider)
.
A) Cool Hand Luke B) Jaws
.
Oops, well I got one out of two
.
Yes, the line is from Cool Hand Luke, and the actual quote is “What we have here is failure to communicate.” No ‘a’. I know, I’m being picky to the point of anal retentiveness, but I just can’t help it!
I thought that was a line by some shriveled up axel rose grandma in the song “civil war”
.
Six hour ride done. My favorite:
“Ah yes. I knew your people, Sean. Your grandfather, he died in Australia, in a penal colony. And your father, he was a good man, too.”
I believe larrycalifornia’s lines were all from Raising Arizona.
