Help - what movie am I thinking of?

One of the characters is French, and he says to another, n'est-ce pas? and the other guy says something like "No thanks, I'm trying to quit."

Is it a Pink Panther movie?

Murder by Death has an exchange that goes ...

"N'est-ce pas?"
"No, cocoa."

But that's all I've got.

That's it! That's the one. I kept going through my head, trying to figure out who it was...Young Frankenstein? Nope. I didn't think it was Pink Panther, but I couldn't remember for sure!

Got it! Thank you SO much, Drae.

I'm pretty sure,
Vincent (Jean Reno) offers a ciggarette to Sam "n'est-ce pas?"
Sam (Robert De Niro) takes cigarette "No thanks, I'm trying to quit."
In Ronin.

CMC fnord!

Jamesir Bensonmum: I don't think we have any Nespa, sir. Just Hershey's.
