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."

"We'll be staying with Uncle Abram!!!!!!!"
"Yes, Mama!"
"'We'll be staying with Uncle Abram',
'We'll be staying with Uncle Abram',
the whole world has to know our business!!!!"
" As Abraham said, "I am a stranger in a strange land...”"
"Moses said that."
"Ah. Well, as King David said, "I am slow of speech, and slow of tongue.""
"That was also Moses."
"For a man who was slow of tongue, he talked a lot."
"How is your brother-in-law? In America?"
"Oh, he's doing very well."
"Oh, he wrote you?"
"No, not lately."
"Then how do you know?"
"If he was doing badly, he would write."
'"You made many many poor people, I realize of course it's no shame to be poor,
but it's no great honor either. Now what would be so terrible if I had a small fortune?"

Time to be more obvious...
"What are the markings on her back?"

I was keying on Hey, hey, hey.
It would appear that someone is talking with a computer, but I don't recognize the show.

Master Control Program!
Abbreviated MCP, of course.
I haven't seen this movie in a long time!
Would you believe someone gave this movie a bad review simply because they
overheard a small child come out of the theater, wishing aloud they could live
in the world inside the computer?
(I thought kids were allowed to use their imagination....)
This has to be TRON.
If he'd capitalized 'User', I might have gotten it sooner.....

Right.
"It is far easier to whisper advice from behind the scenes rather than risk its merit at the point of attack."
It's easier to ADVISE the king than to BE the king...
"D*, I KNEW I was getting hosed."
Ralph, discovering the King of Zambisi could marry whoever he wanted.
"We'll put the velour industry on full standby."
His assistant, Cedric, on hearing he'd redecorate his private apartments.
"On the contrary. You are a good and decent man, and you've acted honorably. I shall try to follow your example."
"We've got nothing in common and she's got a voice like a tuba. If she had her way, we'd have sex on a bed of nails on national television. But at least the party stinks."
Just before the meltdown at the reception.
"Hey, homes! Whas happenin'! Gimme quintet, brother!"
"I do not comprehend, Your Majesty!"
Meeting the King of Zambisi, and thinking "jive" was his native language.
"That's right! String him up! Wanker!"
A British guy, watching on television as Ralph settled some overdue business.
I think this movie was a LOT more entertaining than most people might think.
So long as one remembers it's meant to just entertain, of course.

"Mister... you can say anything you want about me. I'm gonna have to ask you not to talk about my horse that way."
"How is the coffee? If you were to put a horseshoe in it, do you suppose it would stand erect?"
"At your age uncle, I suppose it is that only thing that might!"
"Boldly spoken... for a man with no wives."

"What about your ability to tell the future?"
"If I had the ability to foretell the future, perhaps I would have bet on a painted horse."
"I didn't join this race to finish in second place!"
"Why did you then?"
"Mister... you can say anything you want about me. I'm gonna have to ask you not to talk about my horse that way."
