Favorite Movie Quotes: Best in Show
"Doctor, question that's always bothered me and a lot of people: Mayflower, combined with Philadelphia, a no-brainer, right? Cause this is where the Mayflower landed. Not so. It turns out Columbus actually set foot somewhere down in the West Indies. Little known fact."

Favorite Film Quotes: A Beautful Mind
Phone photo 1167
In the Columbo episode "Strange Bedfellows" (1995) I caught this creative spelling of the word "Bizarre." Then I decided to capture it for all to see.
Interesting the villain in this story has the surname McVeigh, and between the time this was filmed and then aired homegrown right-wing terrorist Timothy McVeigh murdered 168 people (including children) and injured many more in Oklahoma City via some militia-inspired concocted explosive.
Perhaps the writer had a premonition on the psychopathic connection of this name when the show was produced in 1995.
The writer, "Lawrence Vail," has a short list of writing credits in the IMDB. Can anyone shed some light on this guy?

Favorite Movie Quotes: Beat the Devil
"Time. Time. What is time? Swiss manufacture it. French hoard it. Italians squander it. Americans say it is money. Hindus say it does not exist. Do you know what I say? I say time is a crook"

Favorite Movie Quotes: Battle of Britain
"If you think we're going to gamble on Herr Hitler's guarantees, you're making a grave mistake. All those years in England seems to have left you none the wiser. We're not easily frightened. Also we know how hard it is for an army to cross the Channel. The last little Corporal who tried came a cropper. So don't threaten or dictate to us until you're marching up Whitehall, and even then we won't listen."
Favorite Movie Quotes: Batman Returns
Catwoman: "You poor guys! Always confusing your pistols with your privates."
