“You were going 70 miles an hour in a 45-mile zone. Could I see your license, please?”
“Those little pieces of paper with your picture on it?”
“Yes.”
“Oh, I don’t have one.”
“Come again.”
“I don’t have one. I don’t believe in them.”
“How long have you been driving?”
“About forty-five minutes…”
One of the best scenes ever filmed. I didn’t have the heart to break it up.
Were there any cars in Dr. Strangelove? Actually, were there any non-aerial vehicles? (A wheelchair, I suppose.)
oh, wait… thats the cold war spoof movie huh… the one with all the bomber planes… Aww, man. I have no idea why I thought it was something else. I should remember, my teacher did make our class watch it when we learned about the cold war. (He was somewhat of a nut, that movie wasn’t very educational)
ETA: Maybe I just won’t try to use my brain at night. It seems to malfunction.
“Not very educational” from a factual point of view, perhaps, but I think it does show something about the Cold War mentality / mindset — we forget nowadays that a lot of the rhetoric in “Dr. Strangelove” was real stuff that real people were saying and believing. (Not the P.O.E. stuff, but the — well, the “mine shaft gap” comes to mind, for instance.) It’s a hilarious movie even if you don’t think about the context, but if you pay attention to the context you do get a decent, though obviously distorted, view of how people thought about things “back then”…
[@Bry and the other 30-somethings: Remember The Day After? I was 13, and my blood ran cold at the sight of that mushroom cloud.]
I have no idea what that quote’s from, awryone. I apparently stink at this game, primarily because I haven’t seen a lot of these movies being quoted.
HInts?
That scene was with one of the title characters during a tree rescue.
I remember The Day After and it scared my little brain thoroughly.
Also, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, is one of my favorite comedies. If this game goes on, I’ll use a lot of Kubrick.Well, based on the clue I’m going to randomly guess Greystoke.
I remember The Day After also. Back then, I had this odd concept that these “landmark miniseries” were so important that I had to record them and keep the VCR tapes. I also recorded V, and Amerika. You remember that one? The whole “the Russians won the Cold War and took us over” for some reason was scarier to me than the bomb.
Mark for the win.
Game on.ETA: MitchO…That Amerika with the backwards(Russian) K? Scared shitless!
Ended up doing a play and eventually touring the southwest in a VW van with one of that miniseries’ stars, Don Reilly.
Haven’t thought about that in ages. Thanks.No. No, Mother, I have not been drinking. No. No. These two men, they poured a whole bottle of bourbon into me. No, they didn’t give me a chaser.
Re: Mark’s quote: I knew the actor straight off — you really can’t even read the line without hearing it in this person’s voice. Pretty sure I had the movie right, and Google confirms…
awryone- “We bought a VW van, I had to sell all my Star Wars figures that I had, and ask my dad to co-sign for a loan” OK so it is P&S and not JoCo, close enough.
No idea about the movie quote by the way.
