Movie Quote of the Day (‘Austin Powers,’ As the Spy Faces the Limits of His Sex Appeal)


Vanessa Kensington [played by Elizabeth Hurley]: "If you were the last man on earth and I was the last woman and the future of the human race depended on it, I would still refuse you!"

Austin Powers [played by Mike Myers]: “So what's your point, Vanessa?" — Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997), screenplay by Mike Myers, directed by Jay Roach

This post is dedicated to a friend of mine (AND HE KNOWS WHO HE IS!!!), who regards Ms. Hurley as a prime example of a species he refers to as the DHBB—i.e., “Dark-Haired British Beauty.”
