Movie Quote of the Day – It Happened One Night, 1934 (dir. Frank Capra)

Peter Warne: Oh this? Well, I like privacy when I retire. Yes, I’m very delicate in that respect. Prying eyes annoy me. Behold the walls of Jericho! Uh, maybe not as thick as the ones that Joshua blew down with his trumpet, but a lot safer. You see, uh, I have no trumpet.

Great film, but I don’t think Clark Gable is looking his best in that shot. Also it looks as though there has been some sort of embarrassing incident that means they have to dry the sheets in a hurry.
