1:Do you accept people of the Jewish persuasion?

2: I'm sorry, we do not.

1:Don't apologize - neither does Dad.

argh that rings some bells. I'm thinking it's kind of a cult film.

I can't hear line 1 in anything other than Walters voice from the big lebowski, so I'm gonna go with that.

glottis8

nope.. not the big lebowski... this movie is way older.

here is another quote.

I]Lunch is served; it's fish[/I
1: I hope you don't mind. I believe they should be served with the head.
2: Fine... long as you don't serve the chicken that way.

Hmmmm... I feel like this might be something Woody Allen. But I'm also thinking I don't actually know what the movie is...

Zipfinator

From Dusk Till Dawn?

I don't think that the family was Jewish in that though.

Time to think of movies that have Jewish people in them...

glottis8

not a Woody Allen either.

Not From Dusk till Dawn.



another quote?

SURE!

"Either you bring the water to L.A. or you bring L.A. to the water."

Stinger88

Sounds like Groucho Marx?

Is it that old?

I don't know that movie, but this one is from 1974. Here is another quote.

"So there's this guy Walsh, do you understand? He's tired of screwin' his wife... So his friend says to him, "Hey, why don't you do it like the Chinese do?" So he says, "How do the Chinese do it?" And the guy says, "Well, the Chinese, first they screw a little bit, then they stop, then they go and read a little Confucius, come back, screw a little bit more, then they stop again, go and they screw a little bit... then they go back and they screw a little bit more and then they go out and they contemplate the moon or something like that. Makes it more exciting." So now, the guy goes home and he starts screwin' his own wife, see. So he screws her for a little bit and then he stops, and he goes out of the room and reads Life Magazine. Then he goes back in, he starts screwin' again. He says, "Excuse me for a minute, honey." He goes out and he smokes a cigarette. Now his wife is gettin' sore as hell. He comes back in the room, he starts screwin' again. He gets up to start to leave again to go look at the moon. She looks at him and says, "Hey, whats the matter with ya. You're screwin' just like a Chinaman!"

Groucho Marx was a (very famous) person. Made movies long before 1974. Used alot of One liners, thats why I thought it might be him.

anyway. Nah...dont know this one.

glottis8

Ah... i see... i have seen his face. Looks like the writer in Barton Fink.

I can give you another tip...

This is a Roman Polanski movie, and it has Jack Nicholson in it. It's a really good movie.

Zipfinator

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest?

Pretty sure I spelled that wrong, but it's the best guess I have based on that info.

glottis8

nope. Not that one either. Should i just give the movie name and move on to another movie with quote?

blankslatejoe

chinatown?

blankslatejoe

If that's it i'm not sure if I get full credit--your director/cast hint was all Im guessing from...though there was something about water and the west coast in that--a damn or irrigation/reservoir or something..been a long time since I saw it.

glottis8

you got it bankslatejoe!

blankslatejoe
