Kim Basinger and Mickey Rourke in 9½ Weeks (1986)

Quotes

9½ Weeks

Edit
  • Elizabeth: How did you know? How did you know I'd respond to you the way I have?
  • John: I saw myself in you.
  • Elizabeth: You knew it would be over when one of us said stop. But you wouldn't say it. I almost waited too long.
  • John: Every time I see you, you're buying a chicken.
  • Elizabeth: Every time I see you, you're smiling at me.
  • John: You work and you work and you work. You meet with people you don't like, that you don't know, that you don't even want to know. And you try to sell them things and they try to sell you things, you go home, you listen to the wife nag and the kids bitch. You turn off the T.V., you wake up the next day and you do it all over again. But I'll tell you, the only thing that keeps me going is this chick. I've got this incredible chick on the side you see, and she is so hot, I can hardly believe it. She's got one of those heart-shaped asses. Have you ever had a chick with a heart-shaped ass?
  • John: How does it feel like to be out of control?
  • Harvey: I don't fast to lose weight, I fast to save money.
  • Chinatown Shopper: [after Elizabeth asks packed chickens] What... what are you going to do with them? Eat them?
  • Elizabeth: We are planning for the proper burial.
  • [laughs]
  • Elizabeth: [as John readies the double bed] You're taking a hell of a lot for granted, aren't you?
  • John: Am I?
  • Elizabeth: Either that, or you're practicing to be a maid at the Holiday Inn.
  • John: Yeah, I want you to know something. I want you to know that there's been lots of other girls. There's been lots of women.
  • [pauses]
  • John: But I never felt anything like this before.
