First bad language you heard in a movie?

I was 12 when I heard Harrison Ford in Force 10 From Navarone:

[German army officer telling him to leave]
HF: "Ja, ja!" [drives away] "s**t-head."

almost certainly CROCODILE DUNDEE: "well you can eat it... but it tastes like s**t"  :bouncegiggle:

we were shown it on a big screen at school camp when I was 8.

I have since heard this line edited to "tastes like dung" in tv versions
Quotethe movie was cringe, corny, cheesy and "what the biscuits" is with this atrocious acting and childish corny thing of a movie???

That's an interesting question. I think I was sheltered more than most, because I can't remember cussing in movies when I was little. We didn't have cable, which helped. I recall seeing Raiders of the Lost Ark when I was eleven and hearing Marian say "goddamned partner" and feeling startled. I think certain things like onscreen cussing, nudity, violence are used to best effect when employed sparingly. Mrs. Weasley saying, "Not my daughter, you b***h!" in Harry Potter probably rang out more effectively than all the eff-words flung childishly around in Good Will Hunting.
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

Maybe Forrest Gump?  I know that's the first PG-13 movie I saw. Can't remember if there is cursing in there.
Kubrick, Nolan, Tarantino, Wan, Iñárritu, Scorsese, Chaplin, Abrams, Wes Anderson, Gilliam, Kurosawa, Villeneuve - the elite



I believe in the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

I'd guess Jaws.

Quote2 uses of "Jesus" 2 uses of 'Jesus H Christ' 2 uses of 'Jesus Christ' and 2 uses of "For Christ's sake".
Infrequent uses of langauge like 'Goddamn' 'Bastard' 'Son of a b***h' and 'Ass'. The word 's**t' is said a couple of times.

Probably THE SHINING? It's the first R-rated movie I can remember seeing, though there could have been others.

I have no idea.  I do however remember asking my mother what Joker meant when he said "this town needs an enema!"  Never did get a good answer from here.

Heavens. No idea. I mean, we watched "Waterhole #3" when I was around 4 or 5. Then I remember watching "Dirty Harry" at the drive-in with my folks. Given my dad picked what movies we went to see, I'm sure I was mentally scarred somewhere between the age of 4 to 7 by the language. But then, my dad was rather salty, so it didn't really register when I heard it in movies.

I will say that reading David Rabe's play "Streamers" made me physically ill from the constant barrage of expletives, but watching Altman's film of the play didn't affect me in the slightest.
I feel more like I do now than I did a while ago.

Probably The Transformers: The Movie (1986).
