5. Yeah, yeah, I know that bromide. Something borrowed, something blue – old, new! Rice and old shoes, carry you over the threshold, Niagara Falls – all the silly tripe I’ve made fun of for years. Is this what I’ve come to? I can’t go through with it. I won’t marry you and that’s that!

#2 “The Philadelphia Story”
#6 “It’s a Wonderful Life”
Quotes of the 40s and not one Preston Sturges’ line?!
I just went through a list of movies I watched recently and picked at random.
I think #7 is “The Ghost and Mrs. Muir.”
#1 is The Letter
and I don’t know #3 but it seems a timeless line.
4 = I Married a Witch
#3 is High Sierra.
You people are GOOD!
#5 I had to look up, but I knew I’d heard it before; it’s one of my favorite old movies. Arsenic and Old Lace. My favorite line: “I take one teaspoon full of arsenic, then add half a teaspoon full of strychnine, and then just a pinch of cyanide.” All in that sweet old-lady voice. ^_^
Josephine Hull. I adore her.
