and the popcorn goes to

With my MBA study and review marathon and my comprehensive examinations finished, I sat down for a night's good movie. As I look at our burgeoning collection of movies, I run my fingers along the various titles. And sometimes I stop and smile at a personal favorite.

Here are a few:

McManus: We're always looking for extra work -

Redfoot the Fence: Well. That's too bad. I got a ton of work and I don't have any good people. Not like you guys.
McManus: What's the job?

STAGE BEAUTY (2004)
She was the first of her kind. He was the last of his.

Ned Kynaston: Men aren't beautiful. What they do isn't beautiful either. Women do everything beautifully, especially when they die. Men feel far too much. Feeling ruins the effect. Feeling makes it ugly.
Ned Kynaston: Perhaps that's why I could never pull off the death scene. I- could never feel it in a way that wouldn't mar the-
