This is a question game.
The standing rule is no using Google or other search engine to find the answer. Either you've seen the movie and heard the quote, or you haven't. If nobody gets the correct movie title, in say, 72 hours or less, then the one posting the quote can reveal the movie title at their own discretion.
The one correctly naming the movie then gets to pose the next quote. If nobody guesses correctly, the questioner gets to go again. If it's still a draw after that, then, someone else can jump in. I can't think of any other ways this could go wrong, but then this is LNF, after all.
Rules subject to change.
I'll start:
"Don't let's ask for the moon. We have the stars."

We'll see what happens.

I mentioned this ? to my wife yesterday. She thinks it was spoken by Bette Davis. If so, it's got to be the movie where she falls in love aboard a ship. Or maybe not. Any movie of hers that I can think of the name, it's the wrong name. Must Google! |

If you Google you cannot win.
I will reveal the answer on Friday if nobody gets it before then.
Sorry!

I had to Google. Friday is my mother's funeral. I couldn't wait. P.S. Great movie! I'm ashamed of myself for forgetting its name. |

OK, in view of Bama's hesitancy, I will reveal the puzzle answer on Thursday, or tomorrow.

OK, since Bama was the only one to give this a try, and he has to do something else on Friday, I'm going to give out the answer now. Bama was very close:
The movie is "Now, Voyager", produced in 1942, starring Bette Davis and Paul Henreid. The story was adapted from a novel of the same name, and centers around Davis' character who was raised in a very oppressive upper class Boston family. After a painful adolescence and early womanhood, she finally blossoms when she is romanced by an unhappily married man on a pleasure cruise. The line in question is from the last scene in the film, back in the elegant Boston mansion which Davis has now inherited, where Davis says it to Henreid as he tries to picture their future, if any.

OK, here's the next movie quote:
"Nobody's perfect."
Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to guess what movie that quote comes from, without the use of search engines like Google.

that's impossible. Its in probably 1000 movies. There is one even with that title. I assume you're talking about a black and white film. |

BINGO!
Absolutely correct!
I might add, that it's the last line in that film.
Now, it's your turn to come up with a movie quote to stump us all... and it doesn't have to be the last line in the film, either.

"I've heard that you're a low-down Yankee liar." Greg , 1953. Kind of like Robin Hood with revolvers, only much more melodramatic. OK, here's my quote: |
