A Beautiful Mind (John Forbes Nash Jr.)

Category: Movie Role: John Forbes Nash Jr. From: A Beautiful Mind

Thank you. I’ve always believed in numbers and the equations and logics that lead to reason. But after a lifetime of such pursuits, I ask, “What truly is logic? Who decides reason?” My quest has taken me through the physical, the metaphysical, the delusional and back. And I have made the most important discovery of my career, the most important discovery of my life: It is only in the mysterious equations of love that any logic or reasons can be found. I’m only here tonight because of you. You are the reason I am. You are all my reasons. Thank you.

A Boy Named Charlie Brown (Linus Van Pelt)

Category: Movie Role: Linus Van Pelt From: A Boy Named Charlie Brown

Well, I can understand how you feel. You worked hard, studying for the spelling bee, and I suppose you feel you let everyone down, and you made a fool of yourself and everything. But did you notice something, Charlie Brown?… The world didn’t come to an end.

42nd Street (Julian Marsh)

Category: Movie Role: Julian Marsh From: 42nd Street

All right, now, everybody. Quiet, and listen to me. Tomorrow morning, we’re gonna start a show. We’re gonna rehearse for five weeks and we’re gonna open on scheduled time. And I mean scheduled time. You’re gonna work and sweat and work some more. You’re gonna work days and you’re gonna work nights. And you’re gonna work between time when I think you need it. You’re gonna dance until your feet fall off and you’re not able to stand up any longer. But five weeks from now, we’re going to have a show! Now, some of you people have been with me before. You know it’s gonna be a tough grind. It’s gonna be the toughest five weeks that you ever lived through. Do you all get that? Now anybody who doesn’t think he’s gonna like it had better quit right now. What do I hear? Nobody? Good. Then that’s settled. We start tomorrow morning.

10 Things I Hate About You (Katarina “Kat” Stratford)

Category: Movie Role: Katarina "Kat" Stratford From: 10 Things I Hate About You

I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare, I hate your big dumb combat boots and the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick, it even makes me rhyme. I hate the way you’re always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. I hate it that you’re not around. And the fact that you didn’t call. But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you, not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.

101 Dalmatians (Cruella de Vil)

Category: Movie Role: Cruella de Vil From: 101 Dalmatians

You beasts! But I’m not beaten yet. You’ve won the battle, but I’m about to win the wardrobe. My spotty puppy coat is in plain sight and leaving tracks. In a moment I’ll have what I came for, while all of you will end up as sausage meat, alone on some sad, plastic plate. Dead and medium red. No friends, no family, no pulse. Just slapped between two buns, smothered in onions, with fries on the side. Cruella De Vil has the last laugh!

12 Monkeys (Jeffrey Goines)

Category: Movie Role: Jeffrey Goines From: 12 Monkeys

Right, right, right. Okay, okay. It’s all in good fun, all in good fun. Here’s some games here, and there’s, Get out! Get out! He was in my chair. Games, Games. Here’s some games. Games that want to get out, ha. See? More games. Games, they vegetize you. See? Bah! If you play the games you’re voluntarily taking a tranquilizer. I guess they gave you some chemical restraints, huh? Drugs! What’d they give you? Thorazine? Haldol? How much, how much?? Learn your drugs, know your dosages, it’s elementary. … Telephone call? That’s communication with the outside world. Doctors discretion. Uh-uh. Nah. Hey, if all these nuts could make just make phone calls, it would spread insanity oozing through telephone cables. Oozing to the ears of all these poor, sane people. Infecting them. Wackos everywhere, a plague of madness. In fact, very few Jim, Jim, very few of us here are actually mentally ill. I’m not saying you’re not mentally ill, for all I know you’re crazy as a loon. But that’s not why you’re here. That’s not why you’re here, that’s not why you’re here!! You’re here because of the system. There’s the television. It’s all right there. All right there. Look, listen, kneel, pray. Commercials. We’re not productive anymore. We don’t make things anymore. It’s all automated. What are we for then? We’re consumers. Yeah. Okay, okay, buy a lot of stuff, you’re a good citizen. But if you don’t buy a lot of stuff, if you don’t, what are you then I ask you? What? Mentally ill! Fact, Jim, fact. If you don’t buy things: toilet paper, new cars, computerized blenders, electric operated sexual devices, stereo systems with brain implanted headphones, screwdrivers with miniature built in radar devices, voice activated computers! … Right. That’s right. You’re a very attractive woman. Ha! So, uh, you want to watch a television show, you go to the charge nurse, you tell her the day, the time, the show you want to see. But you have to tell her before the show comes on. There was this guy, and he was always requesting shows that had already played. Yes! No! You have to tell her before. He couldn’t quite grasp the idea that the charge nurse couldn’t make it be yesterday, you can’t turn back time, thank you Einstein. Now he, he was nuts! He was a fruit cake Jim!

12 Monkeys (Jeffrey)

Category: Movie Role: Jeffrey From: 12 Monkeys

JEFFREY: WHO CARES WHAT PSYCHIATRISTS WRITE ON WALLS? (moves to Fale, jabs him with a finger) You think I told her about the Army of the 12 Monkeys? Impossible! Know why, you pathetically ineffectual and pusillanimous “pretend-friend-to-animals”?! I”ll tell you why: because when I had anything to do with her six years ago, there was no such thing – I hadn”t even thought of it yet!JEFFREY abruptly switches from rage to good humor, adopting a supercilious smile and a patronizing tone.Here”s my theory on that. While I was institutionalized, my brain was studied exhaustively in the guise of mental health. I was interrogated, x-rayed, studied thoroughly. Then, everything about me was entered into a computer where they created a model of my mind.They all stare, mesmerized, at the strutting JEFFREY. Is he serious? Is he crazy? Doesn”t matter – he”s charismatic.Then, using the computer model, they generated every thought I could possibly have in the next, say ten years, which they then filtered through a probability matrix to determine everything I was going to do in that period. So you see, she knew I was going to lead the Army of the Twelve Monkeys into the pages of history before it ever even occurred to me. She knows everything I”m ever going to do before I know it myself. How about that? Now I have to get going – do my part. You guys check all this stuff out and load up the van. Make sure you have everything. I”m outta here.RelatedShareTweetPin

127 Hours (Aron Ralston)

Category: Movie Role: Aron Ralston From: 127 Hours

You know, I’ve been thinking. Everything is… just comes together. It’s me. I chose this. I chose all this. This rock… this rock has been waiting for me my entire life. It’s entire life, ever since it was a bit of meteorite a million, billion years ago. In space. It’s been waiting, to come here. Right, right here. I’ve been moving towards it my entire life. The minute I was born, every breath that I’ve taken, every action has been leading me to this crack on the out surface.
Good morning, everyone! It’s 6:45 Tuesday morning in BJ Canyon! The weather is great. I figure by now that Leona, my housemate – Hi, Leona! – has missed me hopefully since I didn’t show up last night. Another hour and a half they’ll miss me for not showing up at work… Hi, Brion at work! Best case scenario is they notify the police and after a 24 hour hold they file a report, a missing person’s report. Which means noon tomorrow it’s official that I’m gone. I do still have the tiniest bit of water left. Well, actually, I’ve resorted… I’ve had a couple pretty good gulps of urine that I saved in my Camelbak. I sort of let it distill… It tastes like hell. So, it’s 70 hours since I left on my bike from Horseshoe Trailhead during which time I have consumed 3 liters of water, a couple of mouthfuls of piss… Did I say the weather is great? Well, it is. Though flash floods potential is still present. There’s four-prong major canyons upstream from me that all converge in this 3 foot wide gap where I am. The rock I pulled down on top of me, it was put there by flood. Still, I’d get a drink.
Mom, Dad, I really love you guys. I wanted to take this time to say the times we’ve spent together have been awesome. I haven’t appreciated you in my own the way I know I could. Mom, I love you. I wish I’d returned all of your calls, ever. I really have lived this last year. I wish I had learned some lessons more astutely, more rapidly, than I did. I love you. I’ll always be with you.

17 Again (Mike)

Category: Movie Role: Mike From: 17 Again

MIKE: You know, Stan, I feel sorry for you. (Mike speaks loudly now, playing to the cafeteria.) Oh but I do. All too well. You”re the man. Captain of the basketball team. Dates the pretty girls. High school is your kingdom. But, People, Stan”s a bully. Why? It would be way too easy to say Stan preys on the weak because he”s simply a dick. No, Stan”s more complex than that. According to leading psychiatrists Stan is a bully for 1 of 3 reasons. 1, under all that male bravado there”s an insecure little girl banging on the closet door trying to get out. 2, like a caveman, Stan”s brain is underdeveloped. Therefore Stan is unable to use self-control so he acts out aggressively. And the third reason – I”d argue that Stan suffers from all 3.RelatedShareTweetPin

2 Days in Paris (Marion)

Category: Movie Role: Marion From: 2 Days in Paris

To sum up the four hours of discussion that followed, it’s not easy being in a relationship much less to truly know the other one and accept them as they are with all their flaws and baggage. Jack confessed to me his fear of being rejected if I truly knew him, if he showed himself totally bare to me. Jack realized after two years of being with me that he didn’t know me at all, nor did I know him. And to truly love each other, we needed to know the truth about each other, even if it’s not so easy to take.
