Mum, Mum! She is quoting that old movie again!

Is it from 1950?

Paul, how do you want this to work? Do we end the round as soon as I see a correct answer? Or do we wait until I've been sufficiently amused by all the wrong ones?

By the way, for a correct answer to count according to Paul's rules, it needs to include 1) the missing word and 2) the name of the movie.

Bonus points from me if you can name the character, the actor, and explain why the line is so deliciously awesome in the context of the scene in which it is spoken.

"It's a ---- of a -----, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have."

Also, the obvious rule should be no looking it up on the interwebz.

You might wanna check the rules again in the OP.

The idea is to fill in a missing word from a movie quote, and then name the movie. Also - round 2 hasn't ended yet, and the winner of that will probably get the next turn at providing a quote.

Edit... sorry, but I think your edit came a little too late. Also, round two is still not over.

Well I'm perfectly comfortable giving Tribesman the win on mine, as I'm pretty sure he knows the answer.


@Tribesman - and yes I am impressed, about the only thing most people remember as far as lines from that movie is the other one. But the one I used is still my favorite.
