Film Noir Quotes    This will be tough, half are from the 40’s to the early 50’s, half are 1980 to now.  I also have a broad definition of Film Noir which includes most private eye flicks from the late 40's to early 50’s.  I’ve thrown you a few bones in there.  There may also be two quotes from the same movie.   1. “Frank... is a very sick and dangerous man.” 2. “Experience has taught me never to trust a policeman. Just when you think one's all right, he turns legit." 3. “Yeah, top spot. And I'm just one punch away." 4. “I should have been a chiropractor.” 5. “You know, a dame with a rod is like a guy with a knitting needle.” 6. "And after I pull off that miracle, maybe I'll go punch out God." 7. “You know what he'll do when he comes back? Beat my teeth out, then kick me in the stomach for mumbling.” 8. "I was the only guy who disagreed with the cops - and I had brain damage." 9. “You know, the trouble with women is they ask too many questions. They should spend all their time just being beautiful.” 10. “The people, Eddie, the people! Don't tell me about the people, Eddie. The people sit in front of their little TVs with their bellies full of beer and fall asleep.” 11. “You know, you remind me of an old Egyptian girlfriend of mine. The Sphinx." 12. "I don't think they let people like me carry guns." 13. "If a man looked at a woman's mouth before her eyes, he'd get fooled a lot less." 14. “You shouldn't kiss a girl when you're wearing that gun... leaves a bruise!” 15. “This is a snakeskin jacket!  And for me it's a symbol of my individuality, and my belief... in personal freedom.” 10:55:33 PM    Throw Me A Bone []
