Dear Dictator - Questioning Relationships and Gender Roles
Darlene Mills: [[Monster (2003 film)|movie]
Sometimes I wish I could be a lesbian, you know? Like, I have spent my whole life chasing men, like they're gonna come in and fix all my problems. They're men. I mean, think about it. There are no girl rapists or serial killers... except for that chick they made a ] about, but that doesn't count, cause she looked like a dude.

Wonder Boys - The Impact of Choices in Writing
Hannah Green:
Grady, you know how in class you're always telling us that writers make choices?
Grady Tripp:
Yeah.
Hannah Green:
And even though your book is really beautiful, I mean, amazingly beautiful, it's... it's at times... it's... very detailed. You know, with the genealogies of everyone's horses, and the dental records, and so on. And... I could be wrong, but it sort of reads in places like you didn't make any choices. At all. And I was just wondering if it might not be different if... if when you wrote you weren't always... under the influence.
Grady Tripp:
Well... thank you for the thought, but shocking as it may sound, I am not the first writer to sip a little weed. Furthermore, it might surprise you to know that one book I wrote, as you say, "under the influence," just happened to win a little something called the Pen Award. Which, by the way, I accepted under the influence.

Jack and Jill - Misunderstandings Across Time Zones
Al Pacino:
Amongst this princely heap, if any here, by false intelligence... Hold me a foe if I unwittingly... or in my rage, committed aught that is hardly borne by any in this princely presence, I do reconcile myself to his friendly peace. Tis death to me to be at enmity, and desire all good men's love. Where were you, Popcorn?
Jack:
What do you mean? It's 5:30.
Al Pacino:
No, no, it's 9: 30 my time. I was waiting for you at 5:30.
Jack:
Oh, it's four hours the other way. I just... I got confused. I...
Al Pacino:
Okay, whatever, whatever, whatever. What's going on? How's she doing'?
Jack:
We're, uh, we're, uh, we're coming along. That's how we're doing.
Al Pacino:
Coming along? What does that mean, "coming along"? What does that mean?
Crowd #1:
Come on, wrap it up!
Jack:
It means we're getting there. We just need a little more time.
Al Pacino:
Put her on the phone. I want to hear her voice.
Jack:
Ah, she's not here right now.
Jill:
This reminds me of that boat movie with Leonardo.
Erin:
Titanic?
Jill:
No, the one with the iceberg.
Al Pacino:
Who is that?
Jack:
That was, uh, Poopsie.
Al Pacino:
Why won't you let me talk... Hey, can you... You got to be quiet. I can't hear him! All right? Please. Please! Yeah, listen, you get me this girl, or you don't get that Dunkaccino commercial, you understand? Don't you know me? Don't you know I would use all my power, all the power I have, to keep a commercial like that from happening'? Don't you know that?
Crowd #1:
Is he seriously breaking out The Godfather?
Crowd #2:
I swear to God, I'm going to cry.
Al Pacino:
Put her on! Put her on!
Crowd #3:
Pacino!
Jack:
Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right. Hang on for a second. I'll put her on. Hello'?
Al Pacino:
Jill, my darling, just to hear your voice. What are they doing? Why are they trying to keep us apart?
Jack:
Nobody's keeping me apart from anybody. I'm my own person. You remember that.
Al Pacino:
Oh, I know you're your own person. Nobody's like you.
Stunt Guy:
Uh... Would you like a little privacy? I could finish up for you.
Al Pacino:
No, no, it's okay. It's okay. Nobody wants to see you. But thanks, anyway. Jill. can you meet me when you dock in Spain'?
Jack:
But what about your Shakespeare show'? Don't you have that to do?
Al Pacino:
You kidding? This is L.A. They got Bruce Jenner playing Lord Rivers.
Jack:
Yeah, I don't think so.
Al Pacino:
Darling, put your brother on.
Jack:
Okay. Here he is. Hello. Jack's back.
Al Pacino:
Popcorn, we did it! We did it! I'm coming, I'm coming to get her!
Jack:
You're coming to get her? She just said, "I don't think so," I thought.
Al Pacino:
I can smell horny across an ocean. Here's how it's going to go down. 9PM tomorrow top deck, portside. I'll be there. Audience, could you tell me where I was?
Crowd #4:
But he, poor soul.
Al Pacino:
But he, poor soul, by your first order died.

Jack and Jill - A Misunderstanding Among Friends
Jill:
Oh, please! Tell me you don't feel this.
Jack:
I didn't feel it. Maybe if you did it harder.
Jack:
Little harder.
Erin:
No, Jill, stop it. He's kidding
Jill:
What?
Otto:
Donkey fight!
Erin:
Jill, are you okay?.
Jill:
Yeah, no, I'm fine. Gary, that was... He didn't 100% percent connect.
Gary:
Feel that, Daddy?
Jack:
I... I actually did feel something, there. Pride in my son.

Batman Begins - The Mask of Identity and Love
Rachel Dawes: [she kisses Bruce]
I never stopped thinking about you, about us, and when I heard you were back I started to hope. Then I found out about your mask.
Bruce Wayne:
My mask's just a symbol, Rachel.
Rachel:
No. This is your mask. Your real face is the one that criminals now fear. The man I loved — the man who vanished — he never came back at all. Maybe he's still out there somewhere. Maybe someday, when Gotham no longer needs the Batman, I'll see him again.

Batman Begins - Questioning Credibility in Mental Health Reports
Dr. Jonathan Crane:
Miss Dawes, this is most irregular. I have nothing further to add to the report I filed with the judge.
Rachel Dawes:
I have questions about your report.
Crane:
Such as?
Rachel:
Isn't it convenient for a 52-year-old man who has no history of mental illness to suddenly have a complete psychotic breakdown, just when he's about to be indicted?
Crane: [they look at Falcone, still muttering "Scarecrow"]
Well, as you can see for yourself, there is nothing "convenient" about his symptoms.
Rachel:
What's "scarecrow"?
Crane: [[Carl Jung|Jungian]
Patients suffering delusional episodes often focus their paranoia on an external tormentor. Usually one conforming to ] archetypes. In this case, a scarecrow. Outside, he was a giant. In here, only the mind can grant you power.
Rachel:
You enjoy the reversal?
Crane:
I respect the mind's power over the body. It's why I do what I do.
Rachel:
I do what I do to keep thugs like Falcone behind bars, not in therapy.

Batman Begins - Reunion at the Water's Edge
Rachel Dawes:
Bruce?
Bruce Wayne:
Rachel?
Rachel:
I had heard you were back. What are you doing?
Bruce:
Ugh, just swimming. Wow, it is good to see you.
Rachel:
You were gone a long time.
Bruce:
I know. How are things?
Rachel:
Same. Job's getting worse.
Bruce:
Can't change the world on your own.
Rachel:
What choice do I have when you're too busy swimming?
Bruce:
Rachel, all of, all this, it's not me. Inside, I am more.
Model #1:
Come on Bruce, come on!
Model #2:
We have some more hotels for you to buy.
Rachel:
Bruce. Deep down, you may still be that same great kid you used to be, but it's not who you are underneath. It's what you do that defines you.

Batman Begins - Justice and Corruption in Gotham City
Rachel Dawes:
The D.A. couldn't understand why Judge Faden insisted on making the hearing public. Falcone paid him off to get Chill out in the open.
Bruce Wayne:
Maybe I should be thanking him.
Rachel:
You don't mean that.
Bruce:
What if I do? My parents deserve justice.
Rachel:
Well, you're not talking about justice, you're talking about revenge.
Bruce:
Sometimes they're the same thing.
Rachel:
No, they're never the same. Justice is about harmony. Revenge is about you making yourself feel better, which is why we have an impartial system.
Bruce:
Your system is broken.
Rachel: [driving past a homeless camp; stops outside a bar]
Look beyond your own pain, Bruce. This city is rotting. People talk about the depression as if it's history, and it's not. Things are worse than ever down here. Falcone floods our streets with crime and drugs, preying on the desperate, creating new Joe Chills every day. Falcone may not have killed your parents, Bruce, but he's destroying everything they stood for. You want to thank him for that? Here you go. We all know where to find him, but as long as he keeps the bad people rich and the good people scared, nobody will touch him. Good people like your parents who will stand against injustice, they're gone. What chance does Gotham have when the good people do nothing?
Bruce:
I'm not one of your good people, Rachel.
Rachel:
What do you mean?
Bruce: [shows her the gun he planned to use on Chill]
All these years, I wanted to kill him. Now I can't.
Rachel:
Your father would be ashamed of you.
