What's your best movie quote?

The Pursuit of Happyness, 2006

Hey. Don't ever let somebody tell you... You can't do something. Not even me. All right? All right. You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period.

Our greatest glory is not in falling, but rising every time we fall.

  -- Sylvester Stallone as prize fighter Rocky Balboa.  A similar quote widely attributed in English to the Chinese philosopher Confucius told of 'not failing' but 'rising every time you fail'.

In My Fair Lady, referenced above, while Eliza is being cleaned up by the female staff of Prof. Henry Higgins' household, Higgins is in the upstairs library bantering with Col. Hugh Pickering (Wilfrid Hyde-White) below.  Pickering is concerned that with Eliza moving in for tutoring, Higgins might take advantage of her...

Pickering:  Are you a man of fine character where women are concerned?
Higgins:  Have you ever met a man of fine character where women are concerned?
Pickering:  Yes, frequently.
Higgins:  Well, I haven't... So here I am, a confirmed old bachelor and likely to remain so.

This leads to Higgins' rendition of the song "Never Let a Woman In Your Life!"

--

Despite receiving extensive vocal training after securing the male lead in the film, Rex Harrison could not sing a note.  Ultimately, director George Cukor decided to let Harrison "quasi-speak" his way through the musical, just as he had done in the stage version on Broadway.  (Source: IMDb)

Ironically, Audrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle didn't sing in the film either!  Eliza's voice was dubbed by Marni Nixon (per answers.com).  Julie Andrews (as Mary Poppins) won the Academy Award for Best Actress of the year.  Cukor won Best Director for My Fair Lady and the film won the award for Best Picture.

My Fair Lady's ensuing scene features Eliza's father, Alfred P. Doolittle, played by Britain's famous comic actor Stanley Holloway, who could actually sing.  He had "a splendid baritone voice," according to his biographer.

With his merry band of pub crawlers in tow, Holloway launches into the song "With a Little Bit of Luck" in his Cockney accent, including the lines...

The gentle sex was made for man to marry
To share his nest and see his food is cooked
The gentle sex was made for man to marry, but
With a little bit o' luck
With a little bit o' luck
He can have it all and not get hooked!

Alfie's luck holds up through the coda.  While his drinking buddies are inadvertently swatted into a large ditch, he winds up strolling into a pub arm-in-arm with a saloon gal 50 years his junior.

We gotta have a doctor.  I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin' babies.

-- Butterfly McQueen as Prissy, in Gone With the Wind (1939).

McQueen grew to dislike intensely the obsequious part she had performed as a slave in the O'Hara household, a role she considered demeaning. (Turner Classic Movies) 

The iconic line she delivered in her unique and high-pitched voice about "birthin' babies" nevertheless lives on in the history of cinema.

----

McQueen was not permitted to attend the premiere of Gone With the Wind, a star-studded gala that was held in Atlanta at a whites-only theater.  (Wikipedia)

Her smiles, her frowns,
Her ups, her downs
Are second nature to me now
Like breathing out and breathing in...

I was serenely independent and content before we met...
Surely I could always be that way again
And yet,
I've grown accustomed to her look...
Accustomed to her voice
Accustomed .. to her face.

-- Prof. Higgins (Rex Harrison) in My Fair Lady (1964),
realizing his deep affection for Eliza Doolittle.
Song title... "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face."

"Food fight!"

   -- John Belushi as Bluto in Animal House (1978).  Scruffy Bluto crashes the preppies' table in a campus cafeteria .. and within minutes, insanity ensues.

The film was shot on location at the University of Oregon at Eugene.  The SNL star's role turned out to be his big-screen breakout performance.

The scene is currently available online...

About Sidney Poitier.

[From his obituary in the New York Times following his death this month at his home in Los Angeles....]

Although often simmering with repressed anger, his characters responded to injustice with quiet determination.  They met hatred with reason and forgiveness, sending a reassuring message to white audiences and exposing Mr. Poitier to attack as an Uncle Tom when the civil rights movement  took a more militant turn in the late 1960's.

"It's a choice, a clear choice," Mr. Poitier said of his film parts in a 1967 interview.  "If the fabric of the society were different, I would scream to high heaven to play villains and to deal with different images of Negro life that would be more dimensional.  But I'll be damned if I do that at this stage of the game."

Sidney Poitier was 94.
