Listen, and understand. That terminator is out there. It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.

From the sequel-

"Hasta la Vista, baby!"

"If you want me, just whistle. You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and... blow."

"What do you call this?"

"Well, this piece is called 'Lick My Love Pump.'"

“I have always depended on the kindness of strangers.”

— Blanche Dubois, A Street Car named Desire

Might as well show and comment on the scene. Nowadays, Blanche would be given some prescriptions for meds and she'd be out of that hospital in maybe four weeks.

That baby is now about seventy-two years old, although he / she is never really shown so maybe it's just a movie prop.

In a movie, if somebody says they are from the future, always believe them. I love it later at the police station when the psychiatrist scoffs at every true thing he says.

Come out and plaaaay!!

A pretty ridiculous movie salvaged by the great location filming, as in the opening credits - I think it's the A train / Fulton Street line in Brooklyn. Otherwise: an integrated gang from Coney Island? New York gangs generally didn't wear "colors" in public because they were too easy to spot. A gang of mimes? That headgear that Cleon is was wearing. Etc. Okay, maybe the film is a satire, deliberately exaggerated for effect.

The subway map is authentic for the time period, however. Warning, politically incorrect dialogue (1979).

You’re very lucky to have a father who understood the importance of schooling you in classic movies. Can there be a more important subject? I know, some people say medicine is a critical subject, but I think that’s just med school propaganda. I mean, how much more time do you spend watching movies than seeing your doctor.

My early introduction to the classics came in the form of watching late night movies after the news. It was a great introduction to some fantastic actors: Gary Cooper, James Stewart, Jimmy Cagney, Humphrey Bogert, Walter Brennan, Spencer Tracy, Katherine Hepburn, Jean Arthur, Ingrid Bergman, Lauren Bacall, Kim Novak, Marlene Dietrich and a long list of others. I also got to learn about many great directors and movies.

I do remember Sterling Hayden. Do you have any favourite movies or directors from the 1930s, 40s, or 50s?

Then Michael had to shoot McCluskey through the head. A good hitman makes sure the job is complete. Filmed at a read restaurant on White Plains Road in The Bronx. "Try the veal, it's the best in the city."

You asked Millie, not me, but I'd nominate Billy Wilder as a director. Actor: Edward G. Robinson.

Well before my time. But my father, being in the exhibition business, has schooled me well on Classic Movies. The film is about the perfect heist that ended up being not so perfect. Sterling Hayden is the big name in it. He was also the tallest man in the movie, but he usually was. If you've seen the Godfather, you've seen him. The bad cop that Micheal shot in the throat.

He was also General Jack D. Ripper in Dr. Strangelove. Great exchange from that movie:

Ripper: You know when fluoridation first began?

Mandrake: I... no, no. I don't, Jack.

Ripper: Nineteen hundred and forty-six. 1946, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works.

If my ficverse psychologist were there, she would have responded with the following line- “Pay zero necessary attention to this fool, Sarah. You need to believe Kyle, as does everyone. To show you how much that is so, my big friend here is going to cut open his arm.”

Favorite line from another James Cameron film, Titanic-

“Put your hands on me, Jack!”

Perhaps. She was a troubled soul. Which are always the best characters in movies/plays IMHO. Who wants to watch somebody be perfect. It's not real.

My friend was getting a divorce. We stopped by to pick up paperwork. He says, c'mon in and listen to a crazy woman. So I follow and before we open the door she starts. She kept calling him dickless over and over. Ladies, NOT DICKLESS!! Finally, I step in and used this quote. I thought my friend was going to fall out of his chair!!!

"Flying today sir?"
An old British war movie (Dambusters or 633 Squadran maybe).

An affirmative answer earns the pilot a second egg for breakfast.

I'm very lucky to have my parents. And they chose me, which has always blown me away.

You seem very loveable, Millie. I’m not surprised they chose you.

 

[MillieDynamite]

Well, they made me loveable, if loveable, I be. LOL

Still a classic movie..
