Although I thought he just said, “I never knew, nor ever learned, her name.” How about: D1: “I’m having an old friend for dinner.” D2: “Definitely my favorite sin.” D3: “It came to that the first time you sentenced a man to death whom you knew to be innocent.” D4: “Stand by to cast off.” D5: “Asshoooooole!!!” D6: “Will you never learn?” (I’ll be very impressed by anyone who gets that one). D7: “Justice will live as long as the human heart, and the law, as long as the human mind.” D8: “Second time.” D9: “Bid the soldiers shoot.” D10: “I wish to talk to you.” ---

D1 is “Silence of the Lambs” D2 is “The Devil’s Advocate” Okay, here are two, one _easy_ one and one not quite so easy Baker 1 “After all, tomorrow is another day!” Baker 2 “See? Didn’t I promise you fireworks?” ---

So what’s the real answer? And for **D5: “Asshoooooole!!!”** , I’ll answer _A Fish Called Wanda_. ---

S1 is “Angel Heart.” A hint about NDP 17 (“Don’t be silly.”). The next-to-last line of the movie is, “Are you in pictures?” Here’s another slam-dunk easy one: NDP 18 - “It’s a strange world, isn’t it?” ---

Kudos to **Labdad** for getting _A Fish Called Wanda_, and to **Baker** , for getting _Silence of the Lambs_ and _The Devil’s Advocate_. Here’s another one D11: “Closer than that, Walter.” ---
