I couldn’t use ‘Die Zürcher Verlobung’, as there are no quotes for it at IMDb; also, it’s in German. Shame, though, it’s an extremely funny film.

Is a bit of a cheat, unless I'm mistaken, because I'm sure that's a line from Doctor Who, The Awakening. Which, um, isn't a movie. *g*
ETA: Ah, no, the line from Doctor Who doesn't have the "why..." at the start.
Everyone who's done this meme on my Flist has included a line from Galaxy Quest. I think I may have to watch the darned thing...
David.
