Another oldie but goodie. Quote a line (or lines) of dialog from a movie. The person who correctly guesses the film posts the next quote.
"How are you gonna be a revolutionary if you're such a traditionalist? You hold onto the past, but jazz is about the future."

"Mrs Brown says that in London everyone is different, and that means anyone can fit in. I think she must be right - because although I don't look like anyone else, I really do feel at home. I'll never be like other people, but that's alright..."

No... if you want a clue, it's a very appropriate one for this week...?

Still no guesses on this one,
@Gsavage14. Another clue?
I googled this one. It's from Paddington, a 2014 movie about the sweet little bear that I somehow missed.
Let's try this one:
"Then I saw it. I saw a mom who would die for her son. A man who would kill for his wife. A boy, angry and alone. Laid out in front of him, the bad path. I saw it. And the path was a circle. Round and round. So I changed it."
Ooo, Looper; a great film even with Bruce Willis.

Hey, I
like Bruce Willis! ;)
The quote sounds familiar, but it's a little too generic. Can you give some hints?

It stars a married couple and is about a wronged man who changes himself. The heroine says the quote, looking modest.

Might have to play another,
@valmont. I googled it and it's a movie I've somehow never gotten around to seeing . (I'm sure I'd love it.) The quote doesn't seem to be prompting anybody's memory, alas
Is it Bringing Up Baby?
I just had to think it through out loud. It's Indiscreet. Cary Grant pretends to be married and Ingrid Bergman gets mad when she finds out he was lying to her. I adore that movie! I'm thinking those are the only two they did together. Though I could be wrong. I'll come back in a few with another.
Well it will be years before we know if the immediate benefits of the operation are lasting or maybe just passing or perhaps... there's a strong possibility that the patient will always be limited. Relieved of acute anxiety yes, but limited.
The movie is adapted from a play.
It's a one act play
Ohhhhh...I feel like I know this...
Guessing: is it Wit?
No. But that was a good movie.
Here is the response to the earlier quote:
But what a blessing Dr. to be just peaceful. To be just suddenly peaceful. After all that horror. After those nightmares.
And if you don't get it from that. The last line of this response, which I omitted, should give it away.
Why does this sound so familiar? :-\
Not The Miracle Worker?
Oh is it Suddenly Last Summer?
Cool! New quote coming after work!
Once, it was see somebody, get excited, get married. Now, it's read a lot of books, fence with a lot of four-syllable words, psychoanalyze each other until you can't tell the difference between a petting party and a civil service exam.
A shot in the dark. Is it When Harry Met Sally?
Quote from: AmyG on Aug 01, 2017, 08:00 PMA shot in the dark. Is it When Harry Met Sally?
No, this film is not so recent.

The term "petting party" suggests that the movie probably came out in the late 50s, early 60s, but I'm still drawing a blank. Any clues,

Both of this picture's stars appeared in a number of films by its director. But this was the only one they appeared in together. (The quote is not spoken by either of their characters.)
To Catch a Thief?

No, but you've got the right idea.

Rear Window?
Yes! Perhaps time for another viewing, C:-) it's probably Hitch's most quotable film.
Oh HELL and I've been watching all the Hitchcock films in chronological order with the TCM college course....
"Well, when Johnny was first starting out, he was signed to a personal services contract with this big-band leader. And as his career got better and better, he wanted to get out of it. But the band leader wouldn't let him."
I guessed this in person but he wouldn't confirm or deny. Is it The Godfather?
Quote from: AmyG on Aug 05, 2017, 03:34 PMI guessed this in person but he wouldn't confirm or deny. Is it The Godfather?
Yes, it is. (And, no, folks. I really didn't give her any hints, even nonverbal.)
Maybe not, but did she make you an offer you couldn't refuse? ;D
Ultimately, the band leader was made an offer he couldn't refuse.
I'll be back after work with a quote.
I'm sorry, but I can't let you do this. Dr Post would never approve. She doesn't approve of fashion magazines. It's chi-chi and an unrealistic approach to self-impressions as well as economics.
Ha, that's Funny Face.
Yes it is!

This movie has been mentioned quite a bit recently due to its star having some, er, "disputes"...
Ooooh, is that Hush...Hush Sweet Charlotte?
Mine ...
Him: Pai Mei taught you the five point palm-exploding heart technique?
Her: Of course he did.
Him: Why didn't you tell me?
Her: I don't know... because I'm a bad person.
Him: No. You're not a bad person. You're a terrific person. You're my favorite person, but every once in a while, you can be a real c**t.
Kill Bill, Part X?
Him: Anything different is good. Do you know what today is?
Her: No, what?
Him: Today is tomorrow. It happened.
That is Groundhog Day!

It certainly sounds familiar, Darin (which probably means it's from one of my favorite movies and I'll be embarrassed when I find out what it is). Hint?
Oh drat, I completely missed this! Sorry everyone. The speaker is describing his typical workday. Here is more from the same scene:
I'd say in a given week, I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual work.
It's a workplace comedy, some might say the ultimate workplace comedy.

One of the first movies of the early 70s golden age of film, though it actually came out in 1967. One of the greatest comedies ever made and possibly my favorite movies of all time.

Oh, no, Mrs. _______. I find you very desirable.

She: I find what you're wearing most becoming. Greek, isn't it?
He: I have a fondness for almost all Greek things.
She: As an almost all-Greek thing, I'm flattered.
