Marnie

Alfred Hitchcock = genius. For those of you who do not know, Marnie is a movie he directed in 1964, starring Tippi Hedren and Sean Connery. It came on last night, so the entire family sat down to watch it and have a family movie night. Needless to say, only Kelly and I fully appreciated it. Dad and the boys thought it was pathetic, seeing as it was and "old movie" ("That's not a real background! That's a painting!"), and mom, though she enjoyed it, said it wasn't special enough to watch again. I, politely, disagree.

Mark Rutland: Atlantic City opens for races at the end of the month. We could drive out there next Saturday...
Marnie Edgar: Alright. Are you fond of horses?
Mark Rutland: No, not at all.

Lil Mainwaring: How do you take your tea ...?
Marnie Edgar: Usually with a cup of hot water and a tea bag.

Mark Rutland: Well why didn't you just jump over the side [of the ship]?
Marnie Edgar: The idea was to kill myself - not feed the damn fish.

Marnie Edgar: You don't love me. I'm just something you've caught! You think I'm some sort of animal you've trapped!
Mark Rutland: That's right - you are. And I've caught something really wild this time, haven't I? I've tracked you and caught you and by God I'm going to keep you.

I'm not familier with the movie, but I absolutely loved the quotes from it!
