Not Birth of a Nation?
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Double bill perhaps but BoN doesn't star John McCain.For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

I can’t think of any more obvious clues than to just give it away:
Next turn open to whoever takes it first!

I don't believe that this one has been done:
-- Do you like apples?
-- Yeah.
-- Well, I got her number. How do you like them apples?

I don't think so; keep hunting.

I totally know this, that’s one of my favorite lines/scenes in any movie! But I’m ineligible, and starting to run out of movie quote ideas, anyway . . .

Re: Name That Movie!
No, now you can still answer this one; you don't win anything but the good will of all your peers (and even those who are better than you).

I'm gonna go way out on a limb and guess: "Good Will Hunting"?

Re: Name That Movie!
Okay, here goes.
A poem read near the end of the film.
Takes place in Mexico.
Richard Burton, Deborah Kerr and others.
A poem read near the end of the film.
From a black and white film made in the early 1960's.How calmly does the orange branch observe
Without a cry, without a prayer,
With no betrayal of despair.
Sometime while night obscures the tree
The Zenith of its life will be
Gone past forever, and from thence
A second history will commense.
A chronicle no longer old,
A bargaining with mist and mould,
And finally the broken stem
Te plummeting to earth; and then
An intercourse not well designed
For beings of a golden kind
Whose native green must arch above
The earth's obscene, corrupting love.
And still the ripe fruit and the branch
Observe the sky begin to blanch
Without a cry, without a prayer,
With no betrayal of despair.
O Courage could you not as well
Select a second place to dwell,
Not only in that golden tree
But in the frightened heart of me?
Takes place in Mexico.
Richard Burton, Deborah Kerr and others.

How about this... the original, of course.

Re: Name That Movie!
Sorry, RayThom.
Close but no panatela.
The plot in a nutshell:
A defrocked Episcopal clergyman leads a bus-load of middle-aged Baptist women on a tour of the Mexican coast and comes to terms with the failure haunting his life.

Re: Name That Movie!
this should be answered pretty quickly by anyone who saw the movie, especially with the plot summary. And, if I recall correctky, that same poem was read at the author's funeral.
