What do you want from the movies this year?
Cheaper tickets? Smarter superheroes? A love story and five watchable Oscar films?
Personally, I would settle for one great line.
You know, the kind that immediately transcends whatever picture gave it birth. It is echoed, referenced, repeated, misquoted, and, finally, embedded so deeply in our brains that we can barely communicate without it. “Show me the money!” “Make my day.” “Toto, I have a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.”
That memorable lines have evaporated from film is hardly a revelation. When the American Film Institute compiled its list of the 100 best movie quotes in 2005, only one 21st Century quote made the list. That would be the words “My precious,” from The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers, released in 2002.
Film hasn’t gotten more eloquent since. Just last week, The Wall Street Journal noted that Keanu Reeves speaks only 380 words in the whole of John Wick: Chapter 4. Reeves, according to the Journal’s John Jurgensen, averages four words per line of dialogue.
“The closest thing he has to a catchphrase?” writes Jurgensen. “’Yeah.’”
Still, great movie lines were never about eloquence. Some of the best, in fact, were frightfully austere, almost abstract, like those elliptical jazz song titles, “Now’s the Time” or “Don’t Be That Way.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger and his credited writers on The Terminator–James Cameron, Gale Anne Hurd and William Wisher–didn’t even need a noun to make you remember “I’ll be back.” (For the record, it was Number 37 on the AFI list.)
In truth, great movie lines aren’t so much written as discovered. They are found art–something the audience, for reasons of its own, chooses to extract from the sometimes hopeless muddle of words that

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Perhaps one of the biggest surprises in film and television last year was Liam Neeson’s cameo appearance on “Atlanta.” The actor appeared in the fourth season episode “New Jazz” and poked fun at his 2019 racism controversy. The actor ignited outrage on his “Cold Pursuit” press tour in February 2019 after revealing his past reaction to a friend’s sexual assault. Neeson’s friend was sexually assaulted by a Black man, so Neeson took to the streets with a weapon and hoped a “Black bastard” would “come out of a pub and have a go at me…so that I could, kill him.” In a new interview with GQ magazine, “Atlanta” creator Donald Glover opened up for the first time about recruiting Neeson for an episode that mocked the actor’s racism controversy.

I invited my dear friend and incredible artist, Oscar Isaac, to sing it with me for this very special acoustic version…Just two voices with two guitars, singing together this timeless, sweet, and nostalgic song from our motherland.”
