maeve66There were two Day 232s, so I combined the second with this Day 233 topic.
Movies I never tire of:
Reds
Another Country
My Beautiful Laundrette
Star Wars The first one, 1977, e.g. "number 4"
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Monty Python and the Life of Brian
The Full Monty
Rang de Basanti
Om Shanti Om
Bunty Aur Babli
Dhoom 2
Omkara
Dor
Lagaan
Iqbal
Movies that are quotable, and some quotes:
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Dennis: What I object to is you automatically treat me like an inferior.
King Arthur: Well I am king.
Dennis: Oh, king eh? Very nice. And how'd you get that, eh? By exploiting the workers. By hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society.
King Arthur: I am your king.
Woman: Well I didn't vote for you.
King Arthur: You don't vote for kings.
Woman: Well how'd you become king then?
[Angelic music plays... ]
King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king.
Dennis: [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Dennis: Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you.
Dennis: Oh but if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away.
Dennis: Come and see the violence inherent in the system. Help! Help! I'm being repressed!
King Arthur: Bloody peasant!
Dennis: Oh, what a giveaway! Did you hear that? Did you hear that, eh? That's what I'm on about! Did you see him repressing me? You saw him, Didn't you?
* * *
Oh, and Happy Bastille Day! The French in that movie didn't take any shit from the monarchist Brits, now did they?
French soldier: Go away, you sons of silly persons! I fart in your general direction! Go away or I shall taunt you a second time!
