I have written a short screenplay for my Media Production class at school, it is a short film noir type story about a hit man and at the moment I am going over the screenplay and fixing bits and the like. Now I saw The Usual Suspects yesterday and in it I heard possibly the best line I have ever heard in a film "How could you shoot the devil in the back? what if you miss?" - Kevin Spacey.
Now I have realised this line would work perfectly in one scene of my film and I would love to use that line some how but I'm not sure if it would sound tacky using a line from another film in mine. So what do you guys think? To quote or not to quote?
