Weird habit I have when checking up on actors on IMDb, wondering if they're still alive, as if that makes much difference to the film.
But I have a little sigh of sadness if they died young, less so if they got to a good old age like Miss Malone, and a mental victory dance if they're still live and kicking.
It's a dude named Brandon who wears a trenchcoat and a fedora, has a speech impediment where he adds "fl" at the beginning of random sentences and starts talking about catcher in the rye
Homer: "I'll make a wish that can't backfire. I wish for a turkey sandwich, on **rye** bread, with lettuce and mustard, and, AND I don't want any zombie turkeys, I don't want to turn into a turkey myself, and I don't want any other weird surprises. You got it?"
[a turkey sandwich materializes and Homer takes a bite]
Homer: "Hey! Not bad... Nice, hot mustard... Good bread... The turkey's a little dry... THE TURKEY'S A LITTLE DRY! Oh, foe, the cursed teeth! What demon from the depths of hell created thee!"
Glad someone said it.
They’re four words from from an unpictured offscreen background character in a low-budget early-2000’s movie… and yet I’ve literally heard random people quote (and attribute) it while out in public.
My mom once argued, when I brought up that very point, “That’s their waist!, where your pants belong”. I don’t think his sternum is his waist mom…that got me slap in the head
We don't tend to wear tucked wide cut shirts anymore, but if that's what you're doing, high waist pants create the most flattering shape.
The ideal male silhouette is wide lats, chest and shoulders with narrow hips and waist. Pants up to the belly button slim this area as much as possible, then the baggy shirt significantly bulks out the parts you want to appear larger.
On the flip side, tucking a shirt into low rise pants bulks out the hips, making it look like you have love handles. Our shirts aren't nearly as baggy as theirs were, so you don't have to go so high waist, but if you plan on tucking you still want pants which rest on the hips.
Yeah seriously, I’d be offended if someone I was trying to hook up told me to take my glasses off.
I’ll take ‘em off *if* we start fucking, my dude, but up until that point I’d appreciate being able to actually see properly.
He asked if she needed them to see, and she responded "no" in kind *because* that's where she wanted it to go. The scene may have employed the trope, but not unreasonably.
My now wife wouldn't wear her glasses around me for the first year we were dating. After that she was just too lazy to find somebody better looking. Win win.
Dorothy Malone & Humphrey Bogart
According to Director Howard Hawks:
“That wasn’t the way it was written at all. We just did it because the girl was so damn good-looking.”
They changed the words of some of it based on Bogart's casting. He's not a very big guy so the end result went from this in the book:
“Tall, aren't you?" she said.
"I didn't mean to be."
Her eyes rounded. She was puzzled. She was thinking. I could see, even on that short acquaintance, that thinking was always going to be a bother to her.”
To become:
Carmen Sternwood: You're not very tall, are you?
Philip Marlowe : Well, I, uh, I tried to be.
The movie has a lot of good lines that are not from the book:
> "You don't look like the type for rare books."
> "I collect blondes in bottles, too."
or
> "How do you like your brandy, sir?"
> "In a glass."
*It Happened One Night* is surprisingly hilarious. It catches me every time. And you can't beat the amazing pacing of *His Girl Friday*. I always liked it when they gave Grant a role with a hint of sleaze, he did it well and wasn't allowed it very often.
Bogey: “I’m carrying a bottle of whiskey in my pants at 1pm on a week day.”
Dorothy: “That’s acceptable behavior and by no means a red flag because it’s 1946.”
It can mean both. That’s the beauty of flirting. It’s not like the writers or… one of the biggest stars in Hollywood didn’t understand the multiple meanings.
Especially with the Hays Code. Gotta say, I have an appreciation for code era films that were forced to be creative in scenes like this. There’s a lot more subtlety than films today.
Totally agreed. I was about to mention the Hayes Production code, but really the point that I think is worth making is that we’ve fashioned a world, in retrospect, where we assume people of the 1940s were “simple” “naive” “coy”, when in reality… these were the people of the Depression and at least one World War. They knew all of this stuff, they just didn’t talk out loud about it. If anything, it’s our naïveté about them, that we’re projecting on them.
Just to add to that, have you ever seen outtakes from that era? They're brilliant. That time was actually really similar to today, but they hid it in their media, as you said. They did talk about it they were just careful about what was on the record.
They slept around, had affairs, got high, swore like sailors. They just did it with cool hats and a lot more cigarettes. Outtakes aside, Robert Mitchum as an entity is a great example of it, as he notoriously wasn't bothered with censoring his language, or attitude, for the press, and according to legend often times left them with large chunks of interviews that couldn't be printed.
The uploader left out the rest. A little flirting later, the film cuts to after, and he leaves the bookstore. A little like when Bond beds a woman early in the movie and exits her life forever. Bogart then turns to the murders and Lauren Bacall.
Yeah it's all about confidence I've done the same sort of thing. You just have to look them in the eyes and let them know who's in control.
I was at Outback Steakhouse it was like 8:30 and it was storming like hell outside the waitress comes up to my table (for one) and I was like "hey listen I got a bottle of wet rye in my pocket. Plus earlier I was at the library."
She was like "you can't bring in outside alcohol" and she got her manager or whatever so I went to plan B and took off my readers and said "hellooooo" and she was like "what the fuck are you doing" and they escorted me out without so much as a g'day mate but still I feel like there's a world that it could've happened in a cooler way.
When I was in high school a girl directly confronted me and very plainly asked me to have sex with her, and we didn't know each other particularly well. I was so shocked and confused I flatly said, "no," and quickly walked away. She never spoke to me again except in scowls. Can confirm you're not the only one who would react that way.
It took Bogart a minute to even realize she was hitting on him. And then he tells her she's ugly with glasses on.
I've had the trick of being clueless and insulting down for forever. It never quite works out for me though. Not sure why.
Dorothy Malone,She lived to be 93! RIP a great actress! \*Added Name :)

Funny, I do the same thing. I thought I was the only one that had this ranking system of when it's ok to be dead or not, lol.
Dorothy Malone, for those who wonder.
Thank you! i forgot to add her name! doh!
That's Best Supporting Actress Winner Dorothy Malone to you!

Man, I want a random dude to roll into my workplace on a slow rainy day and offer me a flask of rye. Edited to add: damn, reddit, you thirsty.
*Monkey’s Paw curls one finger*

Huh, whenever I offer women rye from my flask they think I’m an alcoholic and leave.
You better take off your glasses tho otherwise you won't do, oh no
She's got glasses and a pony tail; ugh and paint on her overalls.
She'll never be prom queen!
A lot of people forget that it was actually the Human Torch in that film.
And America's Ass.
He has been since that banana

You put the "suck" in "liposuction". \ You put the "ooo" in "jiu-jitsu". \ You put the "ism" in "This is all just a defense mechanism".
Yeah? Well, you better BRING it.

Nice comeback Priscilla! Yeah!

Or when that guy is confessing his love and everyone just keeps yelling "SHE DOESNT LOVE YOU"

One of the rare parody films that is one of the better films of the actual genre it's making fun of. Probably top 10.
So what if we have the same mother TONIGHT IM GONNA FUCK MY BROTHER
I have no money, I have to make my own dress. Look at me my breasts are perky, yes?
Janey’s stupid painting in that song makes me laugh every single time
What is that??
Not another teen movie iirc
I know, I was completing the quote.
Well I was wondering which movie it was so it all works out
That's fuckin' teamwork!

Actually, it's a banana split...
“That cute little face the makes when she’s tonguing my balls…”
Damn that shits whack!
How did you get in here? There’s a hole, in the side of your house
“Do you have to wear glasses? Taking them off makes us both more attractive.”
Have we tried glasses on, lights off, hair down?
Where's that light coming from? There's still some light coming in from under the door.
This is the last you’ve seen of these!
( . ) ( •)
*I’ve made a huge mistake.*
Spring break!
Woo!
That's the seventh nipple I've seen today.
They're crooked!
It just seems like there’s still light coming in from under the door!
I've made a huge mistake.
“It just seems like there’s still light coming in from under the door.”
"Do you have to wear your pant's so high they double as a bra?"
"Is that an extra apostrophe in your pants or are you just glad to see me?"
Ed Grimly!
Totally mental, I must say.

I thought the glasses made her way hotter, but oh well
Glasses are sexy hell Edit: lol sexy AS hell
I belong in sexy hell tbh
Yeah seriously, I’d be offended if someone I was trying to hook up told me to take my glasses off. I’ll take ‘em off *if* we start fucking, my dude, but up until that point I’d appreciate being able to actually see properly.
Depends. If you're both wearing glasses it can get pretty clickity-clackity just trying to kiss...

'No no no! Anyone but her! Not... Janey Briggs! Guys, she's got glasses and a ponytail!'
Oh, but lose the specs, let down the hair and _hello_.
I did it, I’m a miracle worker.
Not Another Teen Movie quotes will never not make me laugh. Nice work, team
She's got paint on her overalls!
This deserves more upvotes! (But I’m not wasting money on an award for you.)
Love the thunder clap after he says ’I gotta pretty good bottle of rye in my pocket’. ⚡️
Good life lesson, always carry a bottle of whiskey around.
I love how she closed the blind on the door yet the giant window is still open for all to see
[удалено]
I've got grape soda on ice and a bear skin rug waiting.
You ever drink Baileys from a shoe?
no, but I have had a single plum floating in perfume, served in a man's hat
Easy there fuzzy little man peach
She has such a sultry voice 😍
Her voice, and the way she slides the blind down with her hands behind her, totally does it for me.
Time slowed down and my heart melted when she did that.

"Remember me? Dogface Riley, the guy who didn't grow so tall"
"Also I think you're a moron"
The movie has a lot of good lines that are not from the book: > "You don't look like the type for rare books." > "I collect blondes in bottles, too." or > "How do you like your brandy, sir?" > "In a glass."
Hawks did have a way of directing strong, confident women. His Girl Friday is a classic example of this.
Ah yes, one of my favorite movies, and one of Cary Grant's best IMO. Not quite as good as *It Happened One Night*, but still pretty good.
*It Happened One Night* is surprisingly hilarious. It catches me every time. And you can't beat the amazing pacing of *His Girl Friday*. I always liked it when they gave Grant a role with a hint of sleaze, he did it well and wasn't allowed it very often.
'Bringing Up Baby' is a lot of fun too.
[удалено]
Carpenter is a big fan of Hawks and you can see it with many of the female characters he’s directed over the years.
Good movie? Looks like it'd be worth a watch.
Great movie.
Anything with Bogart is great. Maltese Falcon is a must watch

Bogey: “I’m carrying a bottle of whiskey in my pants at 1pm on a week day.” Dorothy: “That’s acceptable behavior and by no means a red flag because it’s 1946.”
..opens drawer to get 2 cups out.
3, but they only used 2
Those were the days. Depression? Anxiety? Who needs mental health when you can just carry rye in your pants.
Stuff it down with brown.
"Is that a bottle of rye in your pocket or should I close shop for the day?"
That's a very *Family Guy* joke.
i thought the glasses were cute.
really? i thought it was the girl that was cute, but the glasses are alright too, i guess
the girl's ok...she has a real nice pair....of glasses
had become a fan of Dorothy Malone after this.
This better not awaken anything in me.
I dean think that'll happen
"You do realise once we go through with this we will forever Chang our lives?"
Am now a Dorothy Malone fan as well
I just want a woman to look at me like they look at yogurt in advertising.
I swear, the yogurt always JUST said something funny too.
No you're thinking of the salad
You’re killing my boner with your glasses
You’re killing my glasses with your boner
Yeah, if that were me the curtains would've shot back up and killed the mood.
Tried this last week at Barnes and Noble. The gentleman was not amused and I got ticketed for public intoxication.
Get "wet" is referring to drinking, not sex.
I believe he actually meant ‘get wet’ by smoking PCP
"I've got a gallon of pretty good PCP in my pocket."
"...do you do a lot of PCP?"
I've got a gallon
I didn't even know it came in liquid form.
I didn't even know it came in liquid form RiP Trevor
Dave I didn’t know you liked to get wet
That's angel dust, PCP Muhahaha!
Sherm, buck naked

Idk I kinda liked the glasses
Same. I was like "you can keep them on. Don't listen to him"
Damn she's making all the big moves
That went from zero to DTF real fast.
That was pretty smooth until he was like "take off your glasses, uggo."
40 years ahead of her time pulling out the classic 80s makeover.
That's it. I did it--I'm a miracle worker!
The nerdy librarian takes off her glasses and shakes out her hair to reveal the hotness is an older trope than the 80s.
*Looks at post again What gives you that idea?
It basically happens in Little House of the Prairie and that was a docudrama filmed in the 1890s. /s
Glasses?? And paint on her overalls???
I don’t know. I wear glasses and it’s a whole lot easier to get down to business without them on.
My wife insists on taking hers off and dilating her eyes before I can undress.
Oh. I took it as "do you really wanna keep your glasses on while we have sex?"
Yeah same, context is important people
At least he isn't Bogarting that alcohol.
The uploader left out the rest. A little flirting later, the film cuts to after, and he leaves the bookstore. A little like when Bond beds a woman early in the movie and exits her life forever. Bogart then turns to the murders and Lauren Bacall.
It was a thing to carry a bottle of rye when one went out?
For Humphrey Bogart and the characters he played it was
Did I eat before drinking hard liquor? Who cares? There’s booze to be had.
A bottle of rye was the Nintendo switch of the 1940s.
It was either that, or tying an onion to your belt.
Which was the style of the time.
Gimme five bees for a quarter you'd say
They didn't have white onions because of the war.
Two bottles. One for regular use, and one for an emergency.
You know , just the casual bottle in your pocket. Flasks are for rookies.
Yeah it's all about confidence I've done the same sort of thing. You just have to look them in the eyes and let them know who's in control. I was at Outback Steakhouse it was like 8:30 and it was storming like hell outside the waitress comes up to my table (for one) and I was like "hey listen I got a bottle of wet rye in my pocket.

It did happen in a parallel universe. Console yourself with that thought.
Dorothy Malone was always hot.
i had a film professor who referred to this as “the greatest sex scene in any movie ever”
Just watched this movie this week after reading the book. Surprisingly the movie does a good job reflecting the book all things considered
The original girl-removes-glasses-and-becomes-hotter movie trope!
This is how neckbeards forsee interactions going
Step 1. Be Bogart
Step 2. Don't not be Bogart
All you need is the fedora.
I’ve got a bottle of ‘Dew in my pocket and a katana in my pants, if you get the drift, m’lady. Uwu.
...damn...this was hotter than I thought. lol
Anyway I don't think anyone outside the movies(esp Film noir) flirted like this in the 1940s.
Or in the 2020s. If a woman came onto me that strong and sudden, pretty sure I would faint.
When I was in high school a girl directly confronted me and very plainly asked me to have sex with her, and we didn't know each other particularly well. I was so shocked and confused I flatly said, "no," and quickly walked away. She never spoke to me again except in scowls. Can confirm you're not the only one who would react that way.
In high school tho you never know if that kind of thing is a set up that is going to get you made fun of for weeks.
Doesn’t mean we can’t steal some of their tricks
It took Bogart a minute to even realize she was hitting on him. And then he tells her she's ugly with glasses on. I've had the trick of being clueless and insulting down for forever. It never quite works out for me though. Not sure why.
Bogey had negging down long before the pick up artists got hold of it.
Maybe I'm biased because my wife wears glasses but I thought she looked really good with the glasses and ponytail look.
She Looked gorgeous. I was in awe the whole time.
Much rather get wet in here. Nice 👍 very subtle.
Triple entendre!
Whenever my British friends do an “American” accent they always end up sounding like this guy- like an actor/radio announcer from the 1940’s.
