Inspired by an excellent McSweeney's piece, I thought I'd come up with some movies, in three lines or less.

Harold and Maude:

HAROLD
I love the shock of pretending to commit suicide. Oh, death, I yearn for you.

MAUDE
No! Live! Greet each morning with a breath of fire! Suicide isn't the answer... unless you're 80.

HAROLD
Maude....?

Mary Poppins

MR. BANKS
We rather need someone to take care of our ill-behaved moppets.

MARY
Indeed - but only until you have a mental breakdown and stumble out of the bank on a wooden leg named Smith. Spit-spot.

BERT
'Alo, 'alo! I 'ave a 'orrible cockney accen'... buy a kite, mister?

When Harry Met Sally

SALLY
I hate you, Harry.

HARRY
You love me, Sally.

SALLY
You're right, you're right. I know you're right.

... now, you!
