This thread has been dead for while, so I thought I'd revive it with a super-easy quote (for anyone who's seen this movie)....it's now my favorite scene of all time, I think :)

Man 1: (singing) "His name was Robert Ford, that dirty rotten cow......" Is something wrong mister?

Man 2: I'm Robert Ford.

Nothing to be sorry about, it was a good quote which had me stumped for months! Somehow I'd never thought about First Man Into Space! :D

ianungstad is right, though it would be an appropriate quote for Do The Right Thing too!

You were both so close I accept the answer, it was "Blood of a poet" by Jean Cocteau!

What next? It seems that the last question had two winners. I guess the next one is up for grabs.
