Title: ID a movie quote... Post by: JohnL on May 09, 2003, 02:34:37 AM Inspired by Chris's recent post about a movie quote.
Back during the thread about actors who have played Satan, a scene popped into my head, and for the life of me, I can't think of what movie it's from. A guy is talking to the devil (who looks like a normal person) and he says something like "I'm not falling for that, you're trying to tempt me!" to which the devil replies (as near as I can recall) "Man gives into temptation freely enough on his own, thank you very much." I'm sure it's something painfully obvious, but I just can't place it. Title: Re: ID a movie quote...

Gabriel Byrne made one hell of a Devil I must say (no pun intended). Title: Re: ID a movie quote... Post by: JohnL on May 09, 2003, 11:28:08 PM I seem to recall it being in a more light-hearted movie.

No, whatever it was, I'm pretty sure that it was at least part comedy. I get the impression (although I could be wrong) that the devil wasn't portrayed as a bad guy out to corrupt people, just someone who handles those people who are already evil. I keep thinking it might be Oh God, You Devil or the Liz Hurley version of Bedazzled. Title: Re: ID a movie quote... Post by: Susan on May 11, 2003, 10:30:40 AM Dogma? I'm trying to remember if there even was a devil character in that.
