Nope.

Playing off a theme in the previous film's title.

You are, all of you, amateurs. And international affairs should never be run by gentlemen amateurs. Do you have any idea of what sort of place the world is becoming all around you? The days when you could just act out of your noble instincts, are over. Europe has become the arena of realpolitik, the politics of reality. If you like: real politics. What you need is not gentlemen politicians, but real ones. You need professionals to run your affairs, or you're headed for disaster!

I know this one, and there haven't been any guesses since Friday...

(Guin, you may want to add another quote and/or clue....)

If nobody gets it today, I'll take it tomorrow....

(Unless Big RR, you would prefer to take it, since I did one fairly recently)

It costars one of my favorite actresses, and an Academy award winning actor.

Since you claimed it Jim, I'll defer to you; the rest of you have the rest of the 24 hours.

My bad, they are both Academy Award winners, but Dales got it anyway.

Damn, this could certainly compromise the fairness of the game and subsequently the prize distribution.

Maybe we need Pricewaterhouse Coopers to insure the integrity of the awards process.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Word for word translators don't quite capture the idioms of a different language.

The proper capture is this: Was vom Tage übrig blieb

Two years high school, two years college German - from which I merely recognized your translator results aren't how a German would say The Remains of the Day; I Googled to get the proper idiomatic translation. ;)
