April 11, 201412 yr He was great in Saving Private Ryan. He's been in several others, but I really enjoyed him in We Were Soldiers also.
April 11, 201412 yr Bingo I really just remembered the I rule! part of the quote. I remembered him buying a car so I figured that had to be it.
April 11, 201412 yr I really just remembered the I rule! part of the quote. I remembered him buying a car so I figured that had to be it. I actually really like the monologue from the end of the movie. Beautiful, poignant and sad all at the same time. Here's a link to it...but it's a movie spoiler for those of you who haven't seen the movie before:
April 11, 201412 yr Played by Barry Pepper. Don't know why, but he's one of my favorite actors. He was great in Saving Private Ryan. Don't forget about The Green Mile.
April 11, 201412 yr I can never tell if I made these too hard or too easy, but here you go: #1 “When you kill a king, you don't stab him in the dark. You kill him where the entire court can watch him die.” #2 “Did you ever hear the story of Icarus, who continually rolled the ball up the hill? But when he got too close, the ball melted in the heat of the Sun. You're all like Icarus.” #3 “Hey, Bobby we should really get together sometime. I haven't been over at the new house since you moved. By the way, I want to apologize for last year at your old house about those bushes. I had no idea they all would catch on fire like that. You were right. I should never have put the barbeque grill that close.” #4 “All these men here know they're going to die. So, each night when they make it back, it's a bonus. So, every cup of tea, every cigarette is like a little celebration. You just have to accept that.” #5 “Basketball is like poetry in motion, cross the guy to the left, take him back to the right, he's fallin' back, then just J right in his face. Then you look at him and say, "What?" #6 “The basement. You'll love it! It's like a cave. With a pool table.” #7 “If we don't have order, we have nothing. Where we go one, we go all.” #8 “Yeah, horses're fascinating animals. Dumb as fenceposts but very intuitive. In that way they're not too different from high school girls: they may not have a brain in their head but they do know all the boys want them.” (changed the last three words to be BGP appropriate) #9 “I know you can fight. But it's our wits that make us men.” #10 “You can't have roots and wings.”
April 11, 201412 yr Don't forget about The Green Mile. Definitely. One of his best was when he played Roger Maris in 61.
April 11, 201412 yr I think #9 is from Braveheart, the uncle talking to young William after his father died.
April 11, 201412 yr 2. Heavyweights; that one used to drive me nuts because he's conflating two different myths. Only recently did I come to the conclusion that it's a pretty complicated bit to show that that dude never had any clue what he was talking about.
