Your favorite line delivery in a movie

31
My favorite lines are any lines by Clark Gable when he's telling off a woman.

from It Happened One Night:
Ellie: Now, don't get so excited, Peter. The man just asked a civil question.
Peter Warne: Oh, is that so? Say, how many times have I told you to stop butting in when I'm having an argument?
Ellie: Well, you don't have to lose your temper!
Peter Warne: [mockingly] "You don't have to lose your temper." That's what you said the other time, too. Every time I try to protect you. The other night, at the Elks Dance, when that big Swede made a pass at you!
Ellie: He didn't make a pass at me! I told you a million times!
Peter Warne: Oh, no? I saw him. He kept pawing you all over the dance floor!
Ellie: [the detectives stand there, flustered] He didn't! You were drunk!
Peter Warne: Aw, nuts! You're just like your old man! Once a plumber's daughter, always a plumbers daughter! There isn't an ounce of brains in your whole family!
Ellie: [sobbing] Oh, Peter Warne, you've gone far enough! I won't stand for it anymore!
Peter Warne: Aw, shut up!


Not to mention his lines in Gone With the Wind. That man knew how to handle women.

Just about any Crispin Glover line has a memorable delivery.


Your words are true, sir.

Also, every line from This is Spinal Tap has a memorable delivery. "Kick this ass for me." "These go to 11." "It IS green." "Derek Smalls on bass guitar--he wrote this." Etc.
