1. Pick one dozen movies that are ones that you have special feelings about.
2. Pick a few lines of dialogue that mean something to you.
3. As people guess the film, strike out that entry.
4. If possible, after the film is guessed, explain why that movie made the list.
It's #1 up there that makes this interesting for me - it's not just about best quotes or funniest quotes or most meaningful quotes. I chose to go beyond "I really liked it!"; not all of these films are great films or even very good films, but they all represent moments, turning points, realizations for me, either in my life or my history with experiencing film. (I'll also be curious to see if all of them get recognized - no GoogleCheating!)
ETA: I will post reasons for choosing these films after the guessing game is over.
