Probably NONE of you will remember NOW VOYAGER with Bette Davis and Paul Henreid.

There is the famous scene where he puts two cigarettes in his mouth, lights the both of them, then hands one to her.

Wouldn't fly today, but boy did it fly 70 or so years ago!!!

Guess again, Melody!

Best quote too...."Don't let's ask for the moon. We have the stars."

I had never seen the movie, but my mother always talked about it being one of her favorites. It's now a favorite of mine.

You wanna talk OLD?? One of my fave movies of ALL time.

Yankee Doodle Dandy starring James Cagney. He plays George M. Cohan and at the end of their vaudeville act, he always came forward and said....

My Father thanks you,
My Mother thanks you,
My sister thanks you, AND
I thank you.

I love James Cagney movies. You dirty rat!!!

They don't make em like that anymore.

Speaking of Talladega Nights, my favorite is the prayer scene.

"Dear Lord Baby Jesus, I want to thank you for this wonderful meal, my two beautiful son's, Walker and Texas Ranger, and my Red-Hot Smokin' Wife, Carley"

'Nother one, Moonstruck when Cher smacks Nick, "SNAP OUT OF IT!" Love it!

I might as well admit that most of Airplane keeps me in tears of laughter, especially when all the passengers get in line with weapons of moderate destruction to clock the whiney dude.

AMN - absolutely! I love the people in the control tower, especially that guy freaking out in the background.

Blazing Saddles is another one that keeps me laughing, especially this scene....Madeline Kahn singing "She's Tired."

One of my favorites is from the movie Fried Green Tomatoes where Kathy Bates is waiting in the parking lot for a space to open and two young girls in a Red VW convertible zip into the spot. Bates tells the girls she was waiting on the spot... one girl says, "tough" the other says, "Face it lady we're younger and faster" and go on their way.

Bates' character sits back.... says Towanda... and rams the VW several times... the girls run out and ask Bates "What are you doing?, Are you crazy?" Bates looks up and says "Face it girls, I'm older and I have more insurance" then drives off....
