Movie Quote of the Day (‘A Fish Called Wanda,’ on One Guy’s Spectacular Stupidity)

Archie Leach [played by John Cleese]: “Your brother [“Otto,” played by Kevin Kline, pictured] didn't bring you here this time, did he?”

Wanda [played by Jamie Lee Curtis]: “No.”

Archie: “He's no idea?”

Wanda: “He doesn't have a clue.”

Archie: “What?”

Wanda: “He's so dumb...”

Archie: “Really?”

Wanda: “...he thought that the Gettysburg Address was where Lincoln lived.”— A Fish Called Wanda (1988), screenplay by John Cleese, directed by Charles Crichton and John Cleese

Poor Otto would never have guessed that the last day of the Battle of Gettysburg (featuring Pickett’s Charge) occurred on July 3, 1863, or that the “Address” in question was connected to the fighting.
