The other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions." Well, that's essentially how I feel about life - full of loneliness, and misery, and suffering, and unhappiness, and it's all over much too quickly.” followed by “This guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, Doc, my brother’s crazy. He thinks he’s a chicken. The doctor says, Well, why don’t you turn him in? And the guy says, I would but I need the eggs. Well I guess that’s pretty much how I feel about relationships. You know they’re totally irrational and crazy and absurd but I guess we keep going through it because, uh, most of us need the eggs.” Edited August 6, 20196 yr by Mdhorn

November 1, 20196 yr 8 hours ago, HouTex said: The entire movie is quotable. Agreed, there are many quotable lines. But when the house band cranks up La Marseillaise and the patrons all join in and drown out the Nazis, and the hooker with a heart of gold at the bar sings out "Aux armes, citoyens!" and shouts "Vive la France!" at the end, it gets me right in the old heart every time. Strong, strong stuff. I don't know of a more memorable sequence in any film.

It's so brilliantly delivered from an otherwise subdued Pacino. i know you're a big comedy/comedians guy, but nice to see you're a mamet fan too. not sure if you're into his other stuff, but state and main, house of games, and spanish prisoner are among my favorites (that he's written and directed). whenever i'm stuck on anything i'm writing, i put on mamet, simon, goldman, sorkin to get me going. they're all represented on this thread, 3/4 on this page.
