Now git your hands on top your heads."

2. What do ya' know? Our next '70's classic is a western as well. In this one the local Sheriff is in his office attempting to wake up the town drunk, who he has in custody in cell number 2. Upon hearing the liquored up inmate groan with the impending doom of a new hangover, the Sheriff asks the puzzled convict "Are we awake?" to which the sot answers "We're not sure. Are we black?" What is this 1974 cinema great?
3. The setting for this next film is a seaside town. Everybody of importance, businessmen and women, authority figures and politicians, are gathered and arguing in a conference room at what is assumed to be city hall. The fracas is reaching a fever pitch when it's interrupted by a bloodcurdling screech that is delivered by a local old sea dog. After everyone has gone dead silent and the old salt is sure of their attention, he speaks this line "Y'all know me. Know how I earn a livin'. I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy." What is this celluloid great?
4. Alright, how about this scenario? We have two men. One is dressed in an overcoat and asking questions of the other, who is attired in a jogging outfit as he has just finished running a few laps around the track that our two characters are walking on. The one asking questions queries the other with "You know who you look like? John Garfield. Exactly, John Garfield, body and soul. Do people ever tell you that, Father?"

5. In this 1974 classic we find ourselves in a black and white scenario that has our lead star, and his lovely assistant, trying to locate the source of a strange music eminating from somewhere in the castle he has just inherited. Upon discovering that the music is coming from behind a bookcase, our characters end this scene with this infamous line "Put ze candle back!" What film was this line from?
6. Ok, let's go back to this period piece released in 1973. Our plot is revenge and our heroes are out to take down one of the most crooked moneymen in 1930's Chicago. Early in this film we find our protege meeting his mentor for the first time and, upon seeing this disheviled mess he's heard so much about, he says "Luther said I could learn some things from you. I already know how to drink." What's this Oscar winning film?
7. Here we are with another period piece. Set in 1940's New York, our story is based on family strengths and limitations in a criminal empire. The scene I provide is this, two men are leaving a fairly well kept house and yard as they are entering a large sedan with one passenger already sitting in the rear. The two men are discussing business they have on the other side of town as they roll out of the driveway. The line in question is "Well, think about it while you're driving, will ya? I wanna hit New York sometime this month. And watch out for the kids when you're backing out!" Can you identify this early 1970's blockbuster?
8. This 1971 piece is again set in New York City and is the true story of undercover police work. Our lead is running down a perp' and when he catches him, he roughs him up a bit, does a bit of the, in your face, yelling about how the punk stabbed his partner, rambles on about bowling scores and then asks the puzzled criminal "You still picking your feet in Poughkeepsie?" Can you tell me which movie this is?
9. The setting is 1950's Asia and we're watching a football game. The players are on the field and spectators are massed about on the sidelines when a gunshot is heard. Upon hearing the report of the pistol a female lead character screams "Oh my God! They've shot him!" The second line is "...you incredible nincompoop. It's the end of the quarter." What is this 1970 smash hit?
10. I saved the best for last. The time is the early 1960s. The setting is the foyer of a very elite sorority house where our male lead has just met the roommate of his supposed fiance. The roommate has just handed him a newspaper clipping which he reads aloud as follows "Sophomore dies in kiln explosion? Oh My God! I just talked to her last week. She was going to make a pot for me." What is this late 1970's comedy masterpiece?
