"Give me a glass of water and a couple of lesbians."

[Richardo]

...from romantico's thread about the 1973 movie "The Last of Sheila" --> http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=5398306&mesg_id=5398306

I found it a hilarious line and thought I'd share it with the Lounge - that's just the kind of guy I am.

What's one of your favorite absurd lines from a movie?

[SteppingRazor]

1. My all time favorite absurd line has to be from Fletch:

"Do you have the Beatles' White Album? Never mind, just get me a glass of hot fat. And bring me the head of Alfredo Garcia while you're out there. "

[Guava Jelly]

2. "girl we couldn't get much better ..ya dig"

From the movie "The Doors"
And on a more serious quote.
It was King arthur to Guinevere from the movie Excalibur

"I have often thought...

...that in the hereafter of our lives...

...when I owe no more to the future...

...and can be just a man...

...that we may meet
and you will come to me...

...and claim me yours...

...and know that I am your husband.

It is a dream I have."

something about that scene always did something to me.I mean to be so in love with a woman who was so in love with someone else...freaken deep shit!!

3. "I've been to a World's Fair, a picnic and a rodeo ....

...and that's the STUPIDEST thing I've ever heard come over a set of headphones."

Slim Pickens in 'Dr Strangelove'

4. "Do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are

studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk, ice cream? Ice cream, Mandrake? Children's ice cream!...You know when fluoridation began?...1946. 1946, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual, and certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works. I first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love...Yes, a profound sense of fatigue, a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I-I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. Loss of essence. I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women, er, women sense my power, and they seek the life essence. I do not avoid women, Mandrake...but I do deny them my essence."

-General Jack D. Ripper in "Dr. Strangelove"

5. From "The Manchurian Candidate" (1962)

Eugenie Rose Chaney (Janet Leigh): "Maryland is a beautiful state."
Bennett Marco (Frank Sinatra): "This is Delaware."
Eugenie Rose Chaney: "I know, I was one of the orginal Chinese workmen who laid the track on this straight."

Some of the weirdest dialogue I've ever heard in a film is from "The Manchurian Candidate"
