The movie: Nothing but the Truth
Starring: Kate Beckinsale, Matt Dillon, Alan Alda, Angela Bissett, and Vera Farmiga
Story: Newspaper journalist discloses the name of an ordinary CIA agent
Crazy line: "Agent lost her protective detail when she quit the agency." (This led to her assassination.)
Someone apparently believes that CIA agents have a "protective detail" that protects them from assassinations.  |

I watched that movie and kept trying to guess who originally ousted her. Blew my mind when I found out who it was. Sorry I strayed from topic.

I was almost asleep by the end of the movie. It was the agents kid as I understood it.
I am surprised this thread has not generated much interest. So many movies have crazy assertions in them. |

I thought you meant the actual line "inspired".
There was a movie on Mystery Science Theater about a race car driver who could press a button on his watch and make himself invisible. In the credits, there was a line that said "Inspired by a novel by H. G. Wells."

I'd have to say the craziest, but true, movie line I enjoyed was on the movie 'Walk The Line'...the Johnny Cash story. Its where the group is on stage performing and he proposes to June Carter for the millionth time and she keeps turning him down. "I've asked you 40 different times in 40 different ways..." And after a brief pause she finally agreed. But it took him years of trying!

Interesting. I would have thought that Cash would be considered a better catch than most. Wonder what the story was. |

He was a philanderer and a drug addict, mostly. It's what the movie was about. |

Some people are just full of win. Did he smoke, drink, and snore as well?
For some reason I had always thought he was some kind of hero for doing prison concerts for free. There is good and bad in all of us I suppose. |
