I can’t believe I didn’t think of this one sooner. It’s the funniest closing line I’ve ever heard in a movie. RA 3: “Stand still, \_\_\_\_\_\_\_, it’ll all be over in a minute.” ---

A Clockwork Orange!!! \ I suppose if I take one, I should put one out there, eh? “You’re still here? Get outta here! Go on! Leave! Shoo.” (I have to be honest, I paraphrased, because I’m at work. But its VERY close if not completely accurate) ---

Congrats to **Bryan Ekers** for identifying _The Caine Mutiny_ and to **Motog** for getting _Double Indemnity._ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/guess-the-movie-from-the-closing-line/143965.md?page=5) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/guess-the-movie-from-the-closing-line/143965.md?page=7)
