Memorable Monologue: My Best Friend's Wedding


"Suddenly, a familiar song. And, you're off your chair in one, exquisite movement... wondering, searching, sniffing the wind like a dapple deer. Has God heard your little prayer? Will Cinderella dance again? And then, suddenly, the crowds part and there he is: sleek, stylish... radiant with charisma. Bizarrely, he's on the telephone. But then, so are you. And then he comes towards you... the moves of a jungle cat. Although you quite correctly sense that he is... gay... like most devastatingly handsome single men of his age are, you think... what the hell. Life goes on. Maybe there won't be marriage... maybe there won't be sex... but, by God, there'll be dancing."

~ Rupert Everett as George in My Best Friend's Wedding (1997)

Memorable Monologue: Cruel Intentions


"You spend all your time preaching about waiting for love. Well here it is. Right in front of you, and you're going to turn your back on it. So I guess we're just f*ucked. I'll move on. But you are going to have to live the rest of your life knowing that you've turned your back on love. And that makes you a hypocrite. Have a nice life."

~ Ryan Phillipe as Sebastian Valmont in Cruel Intentions (1999)

Audacious Audition: Mason Gamble for Dennis the Menace

When looking at youtube vids for my last audacious audition, I saw this one in related videos, and HAD to check it out.

Mason Gamble is such a cutie-patootie, and he played the character of Dennis the Menace like he was born to do it. So precocious! *Angie googles definition of precocious* Yep that's the right word.

This was an amazing film adaptation. How could they go wrong with Walter Mathau and Christopher Lloyd? Perfect casting. Did you know Dennis the Menace (1993) was written by John Hughes? Awesomeness.

Anyways, watch little Mason snag this role.

Delightful Dialogue: Priscilla: Queen of the Desert


Bernadette: What's this?

Felicia: That, my darling, is my most treasured posession in the whole wide world.

Bernadette: What is it?

Felicia: Well, a few years ago I went on a pilgrimmage backstage to an ABBA concert, hoping to grab an audience with her Royal Highness Agnetha. Well, when I saw her ducking into the ladies loo, naturally I followed her in. And after she'd finished her business I ducked into the cubicle only to find she'd left me a little gift sitting in the toilet bowl.

Bernadette: What are you telling me? This is an ABBA turd?

~ Guy Pearce and Terence Stamp in Priscilla: Queen of the Desert (1994)

Memorable Monologue: The Road to Wellville


"My brother, W.K. Kellogg, worked for me as a low-paid assistant for many years. Now he's off on his own and amassin' fortunes with my corn flake invention. Unfortunately, he has chosen the family name to promote it. But the whole world knows only one Kellogg: me, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg! Surgeon, inventor, author, and crusader for biological livin'! I do not seek monetary rewards, for I am called to a greater glory. Here at the Battle Creek Sanitarium, the spirits soar, the mind is educated, and the bowels - -the bowels are born again!"

~ Anthony Hopkins as Dr. John Harvey Kellogg in The Road to Wellville (1994)

Delightful Dialogue: The Very Thought of You


Frank: My perfect partner is me.

Martha: You?

Frank: Yeah, me... with breasts.

~ Rufus Sewell and Monica Potter in The Very Thought of You (1998)

Memorable Monologue: Good Will Hunting


"So if I asked you about art, you'd probably give me the skinny on every art book ever written. Michelangelo, you know a lot about him. Life's work, political aspirations, him and the pope, sexual orientations, the whole works, right? But I'll bet you can't tell me what it smells like in the Sistine Chapel. You've never actually stood there and looked up at that beautiful ceiling; seen that. If I ask you about women, you'd probably give me a syllabus about your personal favorites. You may have even been laid a few times. But you can't tell me what it feels like to wake up next to a woman and feel truly happy. You're a tough kid. And I'd ask you about war, you'd probably throw Shakespeare at me, right, 'once more unto the breach dear friends.' But you've never been near one.

You've never held your best friend's head in your lap, watch him gasp his last breath looking to you for help. I'd ask you about love, you'd probably quote me a sonnet. But you've never looked at a woman and been totally vulnerable. Known someone that could level you with her eyes, feeling like God put an angel on earth just for you. Who could rescue you from the depths of hell. And you wouldn't know what it's like to be her angel, to have that love for her, be there forever, through anything, through cancer. And you wouldn't know about sleeping sitting up in the hospital room for two months, holding her hand, because the doctors could see in your eyes, that the terms 'visiting hours' don't apply to you. You don't know about real loss, 'cause it only occurs when you've loved something more than you love yourself. And I doubt you've ever dared to love anybody that much.

And look at you... I don't see an intelligent, confident man... I see a cocky, scared shitless kid. But you're a genius Will. No one denies that. No one could possibly understand the depths of you. But you presume to know everything about me because you saw a painting of mine, and you ripped my fucking life apart. You're an orphan right?

You think I know the first thing about how hard your life has been, how you feel, who you are, because I read Oliver Twist? Does that encapsulate you? Personally... I don't give a shit about all that, because you know what, I can't learn anything from you, I can't read in some fuckin' book. Unless you want to talk about you, who you are, then I'm fascinated. I'm in. But you don't want to do that do you sport? You're terrified of what you might say. Your move, chief."

~ Robin Williams as Sean Maguire in Good Will Hunting (1997)

Delightful Dialogue: Tommy Boy


Tommy: I l-left a message.

Richard Hayden: A message? What number did you call?

Tommy: Two, four, niner, five, six, seven...

Richard Hayden: I can't hear you, you're trailing off and did I catch a niner in there? Were you calling from a walkie-talkie?

Tommy: No, it was cordless.

Richard Hayden: You know what? Don't. Not here, not now.

~ Chris Farley and David Spade in Tommy Boy (1995)

Memorable Monologue: Magnolia


"There is the account of the hanging of three men, and a scuba diver, and a suicide. There are stories of coincidence and chance, of intersections and strange things told, and which is which and who only knows? And we generally say, 'Well, if that was in a movie, I wouldn't believe it.' Someone's so-and-so met someone else's so-and-so and so on. And it is in the humble opinion of this narrator that strange things happen all the time. And so it goes, and so it goes. And the book says, 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"

~ Ricky Jay as the Narrator in Magnolia (1999)
