Classic movie. I actually have the orignial script somewhere at home!
These are some of my fave quotes:
(Elwood & Jake in the old police car that Elwood uses to pick up Jake after getting out of prison)
ELWOOD: You don't like it?
JAKE: No I don't like it.
(Elwood floors it and jumps over an open drawbridge)
JAKE: Of course it's got a lot of pickup.
ELWOOD: It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Blues Mobile or what?
(Jake after lighting a cigarette)
JAKE: Fix the cigarette lighter.
ELWOOD:It's a 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.
JAKE: Hit it!
Jake : We're putting the band back together.
Elwood : What kind of music do you usually have here?
Claire: Oh, we got both kinds. We got country *and* western.
I love the restaurant scene too where Jake and Elwood are behaving like total pigs to get Mr Fabulous? to come back to the band! lol
