I know there's a guy chased by some paperboy over the 2 bucks.
Is this "Breaking All the Rules"?
Same year.
"Sorry Johnny, I don't have a dime."
Johnny: "Didn't ask for a dime. Two dollars."
"My little brother got his arm stuck in the microwave. So my mom had to take him to the hospital. My grandma dropped acid this morning, and she freaked out. She hijacked a busload of penguins. So it's sort of a family crisis. Bye!"
I only remember it for the guy falling off an overpass onto an expressway,
and surviving only because he fell onto a dump-truck's trash cargo.
On the other side of the overpass, guys saw the dump-truck pass
with him in the cargo area.
They commented to each other that it was a shame
"When folks be throwing away a perfectly good whiteboy like that."
==================
Ok, next movie.
"I've just decided to switch our Friday schedule to Monday, which means that the test we take each Friday, on what we learned during the week, will now take place on Monday, before we've learned it.
But, since today is Tuesday, it doesn't matter in the slightest."
"I've just decided to switch our Friday schedule to Monday, which means that the test we take each Friday, on what we learned during the week, will now take place on Monday, before we've learned it.
But, since today is Tuesday, it doesn't matter in the slightest."
"No, no, don't speak--for some moments in life there are no words."
"We must remember there are many more important things, many more important things . . . off hand, I can't think of what they are, but I'm sure there must be something."

"So shines a good deed in a weary world."
"That's right, you don't know because only I know. If you knew and I didn't know then you'd be teaching me instead of me teaching you, and for a student to be teaching his teacher is presumptuous and rude. Do I make my self clear?"

"Yes, sir."
"Is it my soul that calls upon my name?"
"Oh, you should never, never doubt what nobody is sure about."
"The suspense is terrible. I hope it'll last."
"Where is fancy bred? In the heart, or in the head??

"99...44...100 percent pure."
"Across the desert lies the promised land."
"All I ask is a tall ship and a star to sail her by."
'Round the world and home again, that's the sailor's way!"
"A small step for mankind, but a giant step for us."
"Invention, my dear friends, is ninety-three percent perspiration, six percent electricity, four percent evaporation, and two percent butterscotch ripple."
"A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men."

Charlie's teacher.
(My favorite quote from the movie.)
"No, no, don't speak--for some moments in life there are no words."
Wonka, to Mike Teevee's mom, when she went incoherent after the incident with her son/
"We must remember there are many more important things, many more important things . . . off hand, I can't think of what they are, but I'm sure there must be something."
The television news anchor, discussing what happens after the 5th ticket will be found.
"So shines a good deed in a weary world."
Wonka at the movie's climax.
"That's right, you don't know because only I know. If you knew and I didn't know then you'd be teaching me instead of me teaching you, and for a student to be teaching his teacher is presumptuous and rude. Do I make my self clear?"
"Yes, sir."
Charlie's teacher again.

"Oh, you should never, never doubt what nobody is sure about."

"A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men."
"A thing of beauty is a joy forever."
All Wonka, himself quoting a number of sources (Oscar Wilde, the Bible...)
Now, bear in mind, none of us has been in New York before. There are the Broadway shows - we'll have to find out how to get tickets. There's also a lot of street crime, but I believe we can watch that for free. We want the essentials. Dinettes. Complete bedroom groups. Convenient credit, even though we've been turned down in the past.

I'm guessing that WW won't mind my adding a clue: the movie starred Danny Kaye. George

Once again, you posted a quote from a movie, where you could have posted 1/2 the script without me getting it, except for the one quote you posted. This was from early on in "Red Dawn."

"It's not that bad.
Well, I'm not saying I'd like to build a summer home here, but the trees are actually quite lovely."
"We'll never survive."
"Nonsense. You're only saying that because no one ever has."

I didn't pick 2 of the best-known quotes, so I didn't think it was THAT easy.
However, it's your turn. :)
