Well, I had hoped that last week's tiebreaker round might have decided the winners of this round of Famous Last Words, but alas, it wasn't to be. None of the contenders are backing down, so I'm forced to try again. But first, here are the answers to last week's quotes:
1. “That was a lot of running. I’m out of breath.” ~ This was the gimme, coming as it did from a recent film, Noah Baumbach's Margot at the Wedding.
2. “Come on, chums! Snap out of it!” ~ This final-scene rallying cry was taken from documentary master Humphrey Jennings' sole feature, Fires Were Started….
3. “We’ve been friends a long time now. I never asked a friend to do something he really couldn’t do if I knew he couldn’t do it. Have a nice day.” ~ This one was the stumper, as the film, Peter Yates' Boston noir The Friends of Eddie Coyle, has yet to be released in any video format.
And now, here are the quotes for this week's tiebreaker. Hopefully, these will do the trick:
1. “You with your visions and your dreams.”
2. “You’re the only guy I know who would borrow money to repay a debt that you took to repay a debt.”
“And that’s why you love me.”
“That’s why I love you."
3. “Real life awaits us.”
Once again, I'll be notifying those who are still in contention via e-Mail, but everyone is welcome to play along for fun. Remember, submit your guesses to famouslastwords@nerve.com no later than 11:59 PM Eastern next Wednesday. Good luck, and here's hoping that I'll be able to post the winners at this time next week.
