My proposition is to post a line from a movie, one you think most people would know. (not too obscure)

The goal is to name the movie. You can add who said it, the character or the actor or both if you want.

I'll start with an easy one to get this going.

Amazing how blank your mind goes in this situation... :)


I think I'll go back to the original idea for this thread and pick something that might be a bit easier, to see if we can move things along for a while. How about:

"It's beyond my control".

:) I have no idea. But, just to get the ball rolling (even if it's so wrong, it makes you fall off your seat...)
It...sounds like a line in a...political movie! You know, the ones where you tell 'em to do something, but they go, sorry, I can't do that, it's beyond my control...

Oh, wait. That's real life...never mind, carry on ;D

Sounds like a sci-fi movie.

Neither politics nor sci-fi.

Comedy? Romance?

Jul-10-2013 11:04

Definitely not comedy, and I wouldn't really call it romance, either, though it is about relationships between men and women.

Men are from Mars, women are from venus?
Forrest Gump?

How about a drama? documentary?

Has it won any awards?

Jul-11-2013 05:14

Neither of those titles. It is a drama.

It was nominated for seven Oscars and won three, and nominated for ten BAFTAS, of which it won two. Various other awards as well.

American film?

Was it filmed before or after 2000?
