Aaaah! dialogue i remember it well, movies without it are for kids with an attention span of a flea. Watched a good movie on TCM last week 'All the Kings Men' no not the remake with Sean Penn, the original made in 1949 with Broderick Crawford.

A lot of good ones mentioned already, but a couple of my favorites were ones where the dialogue rose far above the type of movie in which it appeared:

Army of Darkness: "Good. Bad. I'm the one with the gun."

Repo Man: "Duke: The lights are growing dim Otto. I know a life of crime has led me to this sorry fate, and yet, I blame society. Society made me what I am.
Otto: That's bulls***. You're a white suburban punk just like me.
Duke:Yeah, but it still hurts."

Those are great quotes, thanks. Have you seen Bubba Ho-Tep? "Bigger than a peanut butter and banana sandwich"

Heat with Robert Nino & Al Pacino 1995

The scene where they are in the resturant together, I sit there trying to figure out who has the better actor. Good movie all the way around though. Great cast.

The Women
1939 film directed by George Cukor adapted from the Clare Boothe play.

Have to give credit where credit is due...Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet
The 1968 Franco Zeffirelli production of course. I have watched it countless times. Just a beautiful film that really does justice to the play and it's words.

Summer and Smoke, 1961 film adapted from the Tennessee Williams play.
