![]() Michael Rennie Quotation"I suppose women find me attractive because I am polite, charming, courteous...a gentleman. My romantic reputation is an exaggeration. The realities are a bit different." "Some people making pictures in Hollywood are not outstanding for brains. How their minds work, I can't understand." Movie Title: The Wicked Lady (1945) as Kit Locksby: Caroline : I hate cruelty. Kit Locksby : That's unusual... in a woman. Movie Title: Demetrius and the Gladiators (1954) as Peter: Messalina : [arrogantly] You'll never get him back. What can you offer him ? The company of slaves and beggars ? The refuse of Rome ? Poverty and self-denial ? Prayers ? Tears ? Death ? You see, I've studied your teachings, and I, Fisherman, I can give him the world. If he has to choose between us, do you think he'd hesitate for one minute ? Of course not. And that's why you hate me. I can see it in your eyes. Peter : What you see in my eyes in pity. [she tosses her goblet of wine in his face] Messalina : Get out ! Demetrius : We traveled here together from Galilee, persuading people to give up their lives for a beautiful dream. [he attempts to hand a goblet of wine to Peter] Demetrius : Take it Peter. It's real... hot spiced, with cinnamon and cloves. [chuckles and looks towards Messalina] Demetrius : Did you know that Jesus could turn water into wine? And that was only one of his tricks. Peter : Yes, only one. Anything that was base, He could make noble. He found a leper and made him clean. He found death and He made life. He found you a slave, and He made you free. Demetrius : Get out! Peter : And now you've won a great victory over Him, haven't you tribune ? You've made yourself a slave again. Movie Title: The Lost World (1960) as Lord John Roxton: Lord John Roxton : The best title for a woman is still "Mrs!". Lord John Roxton : The best title for a woman is still "Mrs"! Movie Title: The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) as Klaatu: Klaatu : Your choice is simple. Join us and live in peace or pursue your present course and face obliteration. We shall be waiting for your answer. The decision rests with you. Klaatu : I'm worried about Gort. There's no limit to what he could do. He could destroy the earth! Mr. Harley : You're impatience is understandable. Klaatu : I'm impatient with stupidity. My people have learned to live without it. Mr. Harley : I'm afraid my people haven't. Klaatu : We have come to visit you in peace and with goodwill. Klaatu : I won't resort to threats, Mr. Harley. I merely tell you the future of your planet is at stake. Klaatu : In matters of aggression, we have given them absolute power over us. This power cannot be revoked. At the first signs of violence, they act automatically against the aggressor. The penalty for provoking their action is too terrible to risk. Barnhardt : Have you tested this theory? Klaatu : I find it works well enough to get me from one planet to another. Helen : I thought you were... Klaatu : I was. Klaatu : We do not claim to have achieved perfection, but we have a system, and it works. Klaatu : I came here to give you these facts. It is no concern of ours how you run your own planet. But if threaten to extend your violence, this earth of yours will be reduced to a burned-out cinder. |
