Young crone: "Two things you must know about the wise woman. One, she's wise. Two-"
Lord Blackadder: "She's a woman?"
Young crone: "Oh, so you do know her then?"
Lord Blackadder: "No, just a wild stab in the dark. Which, incidentally, is what you'll be getting if you don't tell me where I can find her."

OK, not a movie. But any excuse to quote Blackadder. (Taken from Blackadder II, "Bells". Also the first episode to feature "Bob".)
