    • A hint: I googled it, and it is obscure to put it mildly. So if it's a movie you've heard of, it's the wrong guess.

      • Yeesh. I thought it was quite well known. Fine.

        "Everything is Illuminated". Great film.

        New one. This one *should* be easy.

        Okay, Sparky, here's the deal: You wanna court the little lady, ya gotta be a straight shooter, do ya got it?
        "You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James Napier

        • That's a very popular book, but not so much on the movie front. Wasn't that the movie our friendly hobbit made in between LOTR and Sin City or something?

          I'm going to go out on a limb and say Sin City for that quote, also... though we were supposed to be using older movies in this thread I thought.

            Yes. One of the few instances where the movie is better than the book, I think. The book is half-good, half-average. The movie is all good.

            Sorry buddy. No dice.

            I guess I'm picking obscure quotes from a not-so-obscure movie. Additional clue:

                Maybe it was more popular in Australia than the U.S.?

                • Domestic Total Gross: $1,712,337


                  Not big in the US, certainly.

                  Foreign Total Gross: $1,888,124


                  Maybe they're all from Australia?

                  It was certainly a popular book, though, and a reasonably well advertised movie. Probably lost money just on advertising, I suspect...

                      • Okay, let's get an easy one out of the way so someone actually knowledgeable can go.

                        You wait till you've given them crabs. Then you'll really know hatred.
