Awesome, awesome movie. I can't wait for The Life Aquatic.
My fave quotes:
(Pagoda Stabs Royal)Royal-That's the last time you put a knife in me! Y'hear me?
Richie : Did you say you were on Mescaline?
Eli : I did indeed. Very much so.
Raleigh : You made a cuckold of me.
Margot : I know.
Raleigh : Many times over.
Margot : So sorry.
[Royal motions to Pagoda]
Royal : He saved my life, you know. Thirty years ago. I was knifed at a bazaar in Calcutta, and he carried me to the hospital on his back.
Ari : Who stabbed you?
[Royal motions to Pagoda again]
Royal : He did. There was a price on my head, and he was a hired assassin. Stuck me in the gut with a shiv
Medical Student : Can the boy tell time?
Raleigh : Oh, my Lord, no!
Raleigh : [Into tape recorder, softly] Dudley suffers from a rare disorder combining symptoms of amnesia, dyslexia, and color-blindness, with a highly acute sense of hearing.
Dudley Heinsbergen : [from adjoining room] I'm not color blind, am I?
Raleigh : I'm afraid you are.
Royal : I've always been considered an asshole for about as long as I can remember. That's just my style. But I'd really feel blue if I didn't think you were going to forgive me.
Henry Sherman : I don't think you're an asshole, Royal. I just think you're kind of a son of a bitch.
Royal : Well, I really appreciate that.
Tennis Announcer 1: That's 72 unforced errors for Richie Tenebaum. He's playing the worst tennis of his life. What's he feeling right now?
Tennis Announcer 2: I don't know, Jim. There's obviously something wrong with him. He's taken off his shoes and one of his socks and... actually, I think he's crying.
Royal : You wanna talk some jive? I'll talk some jive. I'll talk some jive like you've never heard!
