More burns from _The Women_ (1939):
Exercise instructress: [instructing Mrs. Fowler in her exercises] Up, over. Up, down. Up, stretch! Up, together.
Sylvia Fowler: No more up. This has got me down.
Exercise instructress: Rest a moment and relax your diaphragm muscles.
[under her breath]
Exercise instructress: If you can.
Exercise instructress: Arms flat. Crawl slowly up the wall.
Sylvia Fowler: The way you say that makes me feel like vermin.
Exercise instructress: That shouldn't be much effort. I mean, crawling up the wall.
Exercise instructress: Mrs. Fowler you've hardly moved a muscle.
Sylvia Fowler: Whose carcass is this, yours or mine?
Exercise instructress: It's yours, but I'm paid to exercise it.
Sylvia Fowler: You sound like a horse trainer.
Exercise instructress: No, Mrs. Fowler, but you're getting warm.
Sylvia Fowler: [Holding up a bottle of Summer Rain perfume] A friend of ours, Mrs. Stephen Haines, simply dotes on this.
Crystal Allen: Really!
Sylvia Fowler: Her husband picked it out for her. Perhaps you sold it to him. Stephen Haines, the engineer?
Crystal Allen: Oh, I'm afraid I don't remember. You see, we have so many men come in here.
Sylvia Fowler: Awfully good-looking. Tall, fair, distinguished. I'm sure you wouldn't overlook him.
Crystal Allen: I'm sorry, but when one's mind is on one's own business.
Sylvia Fowler: Of course. And, as you say, you have so many men.
Crystal Allen: It will be out tomorrow, Mrs. Prowler.
Sylvia Fowler: [Turns around and gives her the evils] _Fowler! _
Edith Potter: Weren't you going to Africa to shoot, Nancy?
Nancy Blake: As soon as my book's out.
Sylvia Fowler: I don't blame you. I'd rather face a tiger any day than the sort of things the critics said about your last book.
Nancy Blake: You're so resourceful darling. I ought to go to you for plots.
Sylvia Fowler: You ought to go to someone.
Lulu: Will I find anything in that ice box of yours?
Pat: Yeah, cobwebs and a bottle of gin.
Sylvia Fowler: [Showing her nails to Mary] Mary, how do you like that?
Nancy Blake: Too, too adorable.
Sylvia Fowler: Ah, you have no idea how it stays on. I get it at Sydney's. You should go, Mary. A wonderful new manicurist. Olga's her name; she's marvelous. Isn't that divine? Jungle Red!
Nancy Blake: Looks like you've been tearing at somebody's throat!
Sylvia Fowler: You know I go to Sydney's for my hair. Oh, you ought to go, pet. I _despise_ whoever does yours.
Little Mary Haines: I saw Mrs. Potter at the zoo that day.
Mrs. Moorehead: Who was she visiting with? The snakes?
Peggy Day: Oh, I wish I could make a little money writing the way you do!
Nancy Blake: If you wrote the way I do, that's just what you'd make.
Sylvia Fowler: You're not a very popular author, are you, dear?
Nancy Blake: Not with you.
Beautician at Sydneys #1: [to Gillingswater] You don't look a day over 35!
[walks into room]
Beautician at Sydneys #1: That old gasoline truck, she's 60 if she's a minute.
Beautician at Sydneys #2: Who is she?
Beautician at Sydneys #1: Gillingswater.
Beautician at Sydneys #2: Oh, that old bag! One more permanent and she won't have a hair on her head.
Beautician at Sydneys #1: [taking a puff out of her cigarette] She's got plenty on her arms baby!
Olive: She sure does shed, don't she!
Edith Potter: What are you going to write next, Nancy? Animal stories?
Nancy Blake: [looking at Sylvia Fowler] I wouldn't have to go to Africa for that.
Child on train: Mommy, will daddy come to Reno?
Lady on train: No, darling.
Child on train: Mommy, where is daddy?
Lady on train: I don't know and I don't care. In the future you'll please refer to him as That heel!
Sylvia Fowler: I'd die before I hurt Edith.
Nancy Blake: [offering Sylvia a tray of nuts] Nuts?
Mary Haines: I'll be doing the cooking so you know what he'll get.
Little Mary Haines: I know - indigestion.
Mrs. Spencer's friend: [gasp] Good grief! I hate to tell you, dear, but your skin makes the Rocky Mountains look like chiffon velvet!

Not only did you put His girl Friday in the honorable mentions, but you also choose the wrong part.
Are we to forget that epic phone call?
Now, get this, you double-crossing chimpanzee: There ain't going to be any interview and there ain't going to be any story. And that certified check of yours is leaving with me in twenty minutes. I wouldn't cover the burning of Rome for you if they were just lighting it up. If I ever lay my two eyes on you again, I'm gonna walk right up to you and hammer on that monkeyed skull of yours 'til it rings like a Chinese gong

You know Hornbeck, I'm getting damn sick of you. The scene where Drummond puts Brady on the stand is awesome but my favorite scene from Inherit The Wind is the ending when Drummond finally goes off on Hornbeck. That entire exchange is just amazing, one cynic calling out an even bigger cynic, Drummond showing he's more sentimental than he's ever let on, and showing he still had tremendous respect for Brady despite how the trial turned them against each other. Great performances from Spencer Tracey and ESPECIALLY Gene Kelly

Guess who's coming to dinner is a very early example of woke indoctrination from Hollywood. And it featured two closeted gay actors, Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn. It's sad how we went from this all the way to the Kardashians and the infamous video where a black rapper plugs her every which way and then relieves himself on her face. The endless coverage of this sorry family (which also includes Woman of the Year Bruce Jenner) over 20 years is not happenstance. There is a nasty agenda behind it.

Good screenwriters are so few and far between today. Many of them could learn a thing or two if they actually took the time to study classic films in depth before attempting to write anything. Having a grasp on intelligent vocabulary, not to mention simple spelling seems to be a lost commodity these days. I love You're gonna need a bigger boat from Jaws. And I'll have what she's having from When Harry met Sally. Those are just two that I love. But there are countless others along with the ones shown here.

Innuendo was so creative. Song lyrics were the same way. Censorship certainly had its problems, but an advantage was the clever writing, along with artistic delivery. Loved everyone of these! My favorite is from the classic, given some attention in this video, All About Eve. There were no words necessary as Bette Davis gives a toast back to the raised glass of recognition from actor George Sands, in the form of a chomp on a celery stalk! So unexpected, but gets the point across very effectively!

Dinner at Eight -. Kitty - Jean Harlow, Carlotta - Marie Dressler
Kitty: I was reading a book the other day.
Carlotta: [shocked at the thought] Reading a book?
Kitty: Yes. It's all about civilization or something. A nutty kind of a book. Do you know that the guy said that machinery is going to take the place of every profession?
Carlotta: Oh, my dear, that's something you need never worry about
Not really an insult to Kitty but very funny for their last lines of the movie.

Lawrence of Arabia has several great burns, delivered flawlessly by Peter OToole. Theres the famous so long as the Arabs fight tribe against tribe, so long will they be a little people, a SILLY people - greedy, barbarous, and cruel, AS YOU ARE! But my personal favorite is when the racist officer tries to kick Lawrence and his Arab servant out of a bar, saying this is a bar for British officers, and Lawrence fires back, Thats alright, were not particular.

There's no twinkle in Gable's eye, he's as heartbroken as she is.
How can you possibly not even mention Dinner at Eight?
Jean Harlow: I was reading a book the other day.
Marie Dressler: Reading a book?
Jean Harlow: Yes, it's all about civilization or something. A nutty kind of a book. Do you know the guy says machines are going to replace every profession.

Great list. but you missed one of the best!
Early on in 1934's Babes in Toyland (a/k/a March of the Wooden Soldiers, villainous Barnaby tries to blackmail heroine Bo Peep into marriage by threatening to foreclose on Peep's mom. Peep's answer:
I wouldn't marry you if you were young, which you can't be. if you were honest, which you never were. and if you were about to die tomorrow, which is too much to hope for!
OUUUUUCH!

WC Fields, I have forgotten the title but he's playing a jailhouse lawyer: They have no more case against you than a sheep has against a butcher.
That or the bit from Ninotchka where a wealthy woman is talking to an older black porter:
Woman: You mean you carry people's bags for them?
Porter: Well, that's my business.
Woman: That's not a business, that's social injustice!
Porter: Well, that depends on the tip.

Most people would probably not consider McLintock! a classic movie (though it is my favorite John Wayne movie, but it's got some pretty good burns between John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. Case in point:
Katherine, the first thing I learned about fighting Indians is to wait until daybreak.
What does Indian fighting have to do with this conversation?
Indian fighting is good experience for our kind of conversations!

Marion, I don't like crooks. And if I did like em, I wouldn't like crooks that are stool pidgeons. And if I did like crooks that are stool pidgeons, I still wouldn't like you.

From the Sound of Music:
Zeller: Perhaps those who would warn you that the Anschluss is coming - and it is coming, Captain - perhaps they would get further with you by setting their words to music.
Von Trapp: IF the Nazis take over Austria, I have no doubt, Herr Zeller, that you will be the entire trumpet section.
Zeller: You flatter me, Captain.
Von Trapp: Oh how clumsy of me. I meant to accuse you.

Probably doesn't pass the Classic Bar but 1981's Body Heat has a couple nice burns
You're not that smart are you? I like that in a man.
I think I've underestimated you, Ned. I don't know why it took me so long. You've started using your incompetence as a weapon.
I always think David Mamet movies with all the fun language must have great insults in them, but I can't think of any in particular.

One of the best burns ever could have been in a movie, but happened in real life. Clare Booth Luce and Dorothy Parker (who were famous enemies) happened upon a hotel entrance at the same time. Clare Booth Luce paused to let Dorothy Parker in first, saying, age before beauty. Without missing a beat, Dorothy Parker says, pearls before swine and sweeps into the hotel.

I think my favorite line from The Man Who Came to Dinner is the nurse's parting shot to Mr. Whiteside: If Florence Nightingale had nursed you, Mr. Whiteside, she would have married Jack the Ripper instead of founding the Red Cross. My mom was the nurse in a community production of the play, and she got applause for that line every night.

I think the best Wizard of Oz quips are the ones against Ms. Gulch when she tries to euthanize Toto, like Being a Christian woman, I can't say it, Hes really gentle. with gentle people that is, and I'll bite you myself! You wicked old witch. I mean, the foreshadowing alone in that last one.

I'm a huge fan of classics for the witty dialogue. The strict censorship, at the time, gave us the best lines ever. Frankly, my dear, I don't give a dam. was a shocker. At the time, no swearing was permitted. Favorite line in the bunch; As long as they have sidewalks, you'll have a job.

98% of the script was straight from the book. MGM paid a hefty fine for using damn, but nothing else had the same effect. My grandmother wasn't allowed to watch it for that one word; she was also 10yo in 1939, so I wouldn't have wanted her to watch it, anyway, if I were my great grandma.

Ann Blyth, the actress who performed the role of Joan Crawford's daughter in Mildred Pierce, is one of the last artists from the Golden Age of Hollywood films. Even at her present age of 94, her beauty and grace still remain iconic and timeless.

Perhaps one of my all-time favorite brush-offs was Olivia de Havilland in The Heiress. She goes from sweet and naive to icy and distant and scores the ultimate revenge against the man who spurned her even if she is not happier in the end.

Crystal Allen (Joan Crawford) Yes. For some of their very best insults!
