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."

You may not have seen the movie, but at least you're paying attention!
Correct!
I saw a Jay Leno "Jaywalking" segment where Leno was talking to a guy who'd never
heard the phrase "Competition is Everywhere." It didn't sound familiar.
The camera began a slow closeup of the man's t-shirt-
which had that written in big letters.
Glad that didn't happen here, even with something less obvious.
Your turn!
