Oh, ah. Now I see why you think I would have known it. Is it The Fog?

Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

Er, well. I guessed it. :o

This is a really minor line, but if one of you re-enactors doesn't know this one, I shall be severely disappointed.

"I ask for nothing!"

"And you shall receive it, in abundance!"

Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

So that would make it your turn.

Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

"Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while."

:lol:

I'll let someone else have a go at this one.

Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father: prepare to die."

Sophia and Mission,

Unless me misses me guess, those lines be from the same movie as the one above. AND if you can't guess the movie from that one then you ain't seen the movie!

But how's about this one: "Your neck will be stretched as long as your memory, one of these days."

Enjoy . . .

since it's been a few days an' not a guess at th' last line there....

Sadly I' don't know the answer... but I will add a set of quotes...

"Why, He fought a duel this morning!"

"Well, he also fought one this afternoon...."

The Duelists is one of those movies that a co-worker and I like to quote, alot. I wish I had a dollar for every time he sent me an email saying "Volunteers?!? Volunteers?!? That woods stinks of Cossacks." In this pirate's opinion, it is one of the best movies of all time. And anyone who quotes from it I hold in the highest regard. B)

Talk about weird parallels. A friend of mine and I used to send WB Cartoon quotes to each other via corporate IM (the only time I've ever used IM, actually). I can't tell you how many times we'd say, "You can't do that. Gee-ology of the ground's all wrong!"

That's how I assembled my WB Cartoon quote file. It's not quite as sublime as The Duelists, but there you are.

BTW, I have no idea what that Tomcat quote is from.

Thanks for the link. A friend lent me a collection of Joseph Conrad stories once just because he knew of my fondness for The Duelists. Having given it some thought, The Duelists, to me, is not just one of my favorite movies, it is a near perfect movie. Ymmv.

Joseph Conrad... fellow Pole... and Sagittarian. I believe his short story Heart of Darkness is the basis for Apocalypse Now. And the ships from Alien and Aliens got their names from one of his stories...

And... whose turn is it? Blackbead? I think you owe us some hints. Otherwise, I'm taking it. B)

The Duelists. Tom Conti plays a surgeon in the beginning of the film. Armand sends him to Ferraud after their first fight. He says something else along the lines of, "I've anatomized the military mind (man?). I've literally picked through his brains." And then something something about still not being able to understand them. The tomcat quote falls in there. Gee, I'm getting rusty. Time to watch it again.

Blackbead actually gave us a quote, but no one's guessed it. I Googled it, so I'll just shut up.

Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

The first two should be easy, but ya gotta dig deep on the last one I bet!

So, ye be wantin' a clue, eh? Well, imagine Randolph Scott playing the son of an English lord and you have the weakest part of this old film. This is one you can buy on a DVD coupled with another film. But, the cast (other than Scott) is first rate and the period setting is full of accurate details.

Regarding "The Duelists": It has to be one of the best representations of the uniforms of the Napoleonic period I have ever seen. I just wish that someone would remake it with a REAL budget. According to the director (and can anyone name him??), their budget was so small that they couldn't have more than 10 or 15 people in any shot. Some of the camp scenes are shot so that you are looking out the front of a tent and they had the same people walk back and forth several times to make the camp look like it had lots of folks around. Can you imagine a version of this film with the same cinematogrophy and battles the size of the ones in "Alexander" or "Braveheart" or "Spartacus"?? Makes this old military historians mouth water.

So, thought of the Randolph Scott pirate film, yet??

Ah my dear Blackbead, we do seem to stumble onto common ground to revisit subjects of past conversations. ( Namely Napoleonic Cavalry.)

As to your original query of Randolph Scott, it keeps tugging at the back of my mind.....

BUT...

In regard to your other, a strange synchronicty and similarity occures. The director of The Duelists and the afore mentioned actor have the same initials...R.S. and for that matter, the same last name.

The Duelists, was the first major film in the directorial career of Ridley Scott.

And I fully agree, I would love to see this film redone with the budget it deserves. I would be curious to see what another screenwriter would do in regard to things that were not used from the original tale...The Duel a.k.a. The Point of Honor.

...Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn, Tombless, with no rememberance over them: Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like a Turkish mute, shall have a toungueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph... King Henry V- William Shakespeare
