Uhm, maybe. I’d have to watch it again to find out. The movie I’m thinking of is live action and goes back a ways, in terms of both setting and production. I’ve seen it dubbed into different languages, and that line is always the same. Which is why I remember it so well. If I gave you the name of the main character, you’d probably know the film right away. ---

Oh I know I have heard that one and it’s driving me crazy. I want to look it up but that would spoil the thrill of remembering. Now I’m going to wake up in the middle of the night with the answer, but by then someone else will have guessed it. _ **Grrr.** _ ---
