"Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."
Clark Gable's line to Vivien Leigh in 1939's "Gone With the Wind" led the AFI's list, announced in the organization's annual top-100 special that aired on CBS Tuesday.
Brando had the No. 2 and 3 quotes — "I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse," from "The Godfather" and his "I coulda been a contender" speech from "On the Waterfront."
Judy Garland's Dorothy Gale came in fourth with "Toto, I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore," from The Wizard of Oz." At No. 5 was "Here's looking at you, kid," spoken by Rick (Humphrey Bogart) to Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) in "Casablanca."
Rounding out the top 10:
6. "Go ahead, make my day," Clint Eastwood, "Sudden Impact."
7. "All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up," Gloria Swanson, "Sunset Blvd."
8. "May the Force be with you," Harrison Ford, "Star Wars."
9. "Fasten your seatbelts. It's going to be a bumpy night," Bette Davis, "All About Eve."
10. "You talking to me?", Robert De Niro, "Taxi Driver."
--And MP&S must give a special nod to #90: "A martini. Shaken, not stirred" from "Goldfinger."
