The Last Days of Disco Quotes

Matt Keeslar as Josh Neff

  • (Matt Keeslar) "Book this clown."
  • (Matt Keeslar) "Take The Tortoise and the Hare. Okay, the tortoise won one race. Do you think that hare is really going to lose any more races to turtles? Not on your life."
  • (Unnamed) "I like that tortoise."
  • (Matt Keeslar) "So do I. But if you were a betting person, would you say, "That tortoise won against the hare; in future races I'm backing him"? No. That race was almost certainly a fluke and afterwards the tortoise is still a tortoise, and the hare a hare."
  • (Matt Keeslar) "A lot of people like to say they won't take no for an answer. I just wanted you to know that I'm not one of them; I can be easily discouraged. I will take no for an answer."
  • (Matt Keeslar) "There is something depressing about it, and it's not really about dogs. Except for some superficial bow-wow stuff at the start, the dogs all represent human types, which is where it gets into real trouble. Lady, the ostensible protagonist, is a fluffy blond Cocker Spaniel with absolutely nothing on her brain. She's great-looking, but; let's be honest; incredibly insipid. Tramp, the love interest, is a smarmy braggart of the most obnoxious kind; an oily jailbird out for a piece of tail, or -- whatever he can get."
  • (Kate Beckinsale) "Oh, come on."
  • (Matt Keeslar) "No, he's a self-confessed chicken thief, and all-around sleazeball. What's the function of a film of this kind? Essentially as a primer on love and marriage directed at very young people, imprinting on their little psyches the idea that smooth-talking delinquents recently escaped from the local pound are a good match for nice girls from sheltered homes. When in ten years the icky human version of Tramp shows up around the house, their hormones will be racing and no one will understand why. Films like this program women to adore jerks."

Mackenzie Astin as Jimmy

  • (Unnamed) "'Yuppie scum'? In college, before dropping out, I took a course in the propaganda uses of language; one objective is to deny other people's humanity, or even right to exist."
  • (Mackenzie Astin) "In the men's lounge someone scrawled 'kill yuppie scum'."
  • (Unnamed) "Do yuppies even exist? No one says, "I am a yuppie," it's always the other guy who's a yuppie. I think for a group to exist, somebody has to admit to be part of it."
  • (Mackenzie Astin) "That's like something out of the Nazis."
  • (Mackenzie Astin) "There's no chance of you getting infatuated with me again, is there?"

Kate Beckinsale as Charlotte Pingress

  • (Kate Beckinsale) "What if in a few years we don't marry some corporate lawyer? What if we marry some meatball, like you? Or not you, personally, but someone with similarly low socioeconomic prospects."
  • (Kate Beckinsale) "You know the Woodstock generation of the 1960s that were so full of themselves and conceited?"
  • (Kate Beckinsale) "It's really important there be more group social life. Not just all this ferocious pairing off."
  • (Kate Beckinsale) "Anything I did that was wrong, I apologize for. But anything I did that was not wrong, I don't apologize for."
  • (Kate Beckinsale) "Maybe in physical terms I'm a little cuter than you, but you should be much more popular than I am."
  • (Unnamed) "I think it's much better to wait until things happen naturally. Forcing things never works."
  • (Kate Beckinsale) "That's not true. Forcing things usually works beautifully."

Robert Sean Leonard as Tom Platt

  • (Robert Sean Leonard) "Actually, there's one theory that the environmental movement of our day was sparked by the rerelease of Bambi in the late 1950s."
  • (Unnamed) "If when making love, the man -- spurts -- outside the woman, does that count as sexual intercourse?"
  • (Robert Sean Leonard) ""Spurts"?"
  • (Unnamed) "If it -- squirts outside, without getting in -- does that count as losing your virginity?"
  • (Robert Sean Leonard) "No part of the man got in at any time?"
  • (Unnamed) "I don't think so."
  • (Robert Sean Leonard) "I think part has to get in to be considered sexual intercourse."
  • (Unnamed) "So then I was a virgin."

David Thornton as Bernie Rafferty

  • (David Thornton) "So you don't know anything about this investigation."
  • (Unnamed) "No --. Well, a sort of acquaintance of mine who now works in Morgenthau's office approached me, but -- I didn't tell him anything."
  • (David Thornton) "You didn't tell me about that."
  • (Unnamed) "I didn't think it was important, it only just happened."
  • (David Thornton) "When?"
  • (Unnamed) "Tonight; just now."
  • (David Thornton) "Why did you use the past perfect, then?"
  • (Unnamed) "I used the past perfect?"
  • (David Thornton) "Yeah: "I was approached." It sounds like a while ago."
  • (Unnamed) "I tease him a little bit --"
  • (David Thornton) "No teasing, Des."
