      7.4 points. I can't stand on the shoulders of giants and point out that this 50-year-old film could be more subtle. All I can say is that it's smooth and fun, the lines are witty and humorous, and all the memes were well-used and advanced in the 1960s. So, kudos to the...

    Movie quotes

    • Oscar Madison: Why doesn't he hear me? I know I'm talking. I recognize my voice.

    • Felix Ungar: You don't understand. I'm nothing without my wife and kids. I'm nothing!

      Oscar Madison: You're not nothing. You're something. You're a person. You're flesh and blood, bones, hair, nails and ears. You're not a fish. You're not a buffalo. You're you! You walk, and talk, and cry, and complain, and eat little green pills, and send suicide telegrams. No one else does that, Felix, no one! I'm telling you, you're the only one of its kind in the world!

    • Gwendolyn Pigeon: I haven't cried since I was fourteen!
