My favourite quote is from Gone with the Wind

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gn26pEDEhyY&feature=player_detailpage

As God is my witness, as God is my witness they’re not going to lick me. I’m going to live through this and when it’s all over, I’ll never be hungry again. No, nor any of my folk. If I have to lie, steal, cheat or kill. As God is my witness, I’ll never be hungry again

Not a speech but it’s one of my favourite moments from any film

I’m just transfixed by how Denis Lavant moves.
The more keen-eyed amongst you will remember him from the Stella Artois advert and UNKLE’s Rabbit in the headlights video

From Pelle the Conqueror

Pelle: Father?
Lassefar: Everything’s gonna be fine.
Pelle: Tell it again.
Lassefar: This new country we’re going to is very different.
Pelle: Talk more about it.
Lassefar: They put raisins in the pork roast and butter on the bread. They put a lot of butter on the bread. Brandy is cheap as water and it is so strong that it knocks you off. But your father can take it, Pelle, because he’s strong.
Pelle: And children are free all day.
Lassefar: Yes, Pelle, yes.
Pelle: Tell it again.
Lassefar: You get so well paid that children don’t need…
Pelle: Don’t need to work. They can play all day long.
Lassefar: [smiling] Yes.

Not a big fan of gone with the wind, though. Anyway, i’ll see your David Selznick film and raise you with:

I’ve put this up before as the best quote ever

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgmO32IdwuE

Liam Neeson…Taken

I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don’t have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

Marko: [after a long pause] Good luck.

Apparently they are going t make a sequel to Casablanca…. not a remake of the original film but picking up the characters of Rick and Ilsa 30 years on and telling the story of what happened to the characters… but how do you cast actors to be the new Bogart and Bergman? who could be the new duo… and if they had kids….. who could play them??

Casablanca wasn’t just a film it was an art-form, a masterpiece…. I wonder does Hollywood have the talent to carry this one off or should they leave it well alone?
