I Wish I'd Said It

I watched John Wayne in "The High and The Mighty" recently.  This is a film that was originally released 50 years ago and hasn't been seen since.   FIFTY YEARS AGO.  It's a classic, I tell ya.

It was an airplane horror "we're going to crash" before-they-had-special-effects movie.  And I loved it.  Not because I like horror, or plane crashes or any kind of excessive drama.  I like dialogue.  And the following line, said by one of the female passengers on the plane, was like a tiramisu dessert after a king crab dinner for me:

"I always thought your brain would fit nicely in a demitasse."

Dang. Wish I'd had the opportunity to spout that one to someone, sometime. .
