2006-12-21
Famous lines of movie dialogue -- such as "Stella!" and "You had me at hello" -- take center stage in the official poster for the Academy Awards. Copies of the 27- by 40-inch poster are being sold for $25 each through http://www.oscars.org, the official Web site of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. "They are the unforgettable lines that you hear in everyday conversations, in meetings, at parties, or walking down the street," Academy president Sid Ganis said. Among the prominent lines on display are "Stella!" from "A Streetcar Named Desire," "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!" from "Network," "Snap out of it!" from "Moonstruck" and "You had me at hello" from "Jerry Maguire." Nominations for the 79th Academy Awards will be announced on January 23 and the Oscar ceremony will take place in Hollywood on February 25. Reuters/Hollywood Reporter
