You get a role in a movie but you only get one line. Who had the greatest one? I will go with this one for now. Whole movie based on CIA orders.



Again if you say more than one line you are out.

The Righteous Gemstones - Uncle Baby Billy (Walter Goggins) turns to his wife and says “ who wants to suck an old man’s d**k?”

age restricted on YouTube. Just search for it. Just need to watch the first 10 seconds.

“The greatest trick they devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist. And like that…. He is gone.”

Or ….

“Keaton always said “I don’t believe in God, but I’m afraid of him.” Well I believe in God and the only thing that scares me is Keyser Soze.”

I like the Usual Suspects

It would have been a really bad movie if he would have only had one line. Reading is fundamental.

Boba Fett's one line in Return of the Jedi ("AAAAAHH!") is memorable, for all the wrong reasons.

[Han] turns around blindly, and the long spear in his hand whacks squarely in the middle of Boba's rocket pack.

The impact of the swing causes the rocket pack to ignite. Boba blasts off, flying over the second skiff like a missile, smashing against the side of the huge Sail Barge and sliding away into the pit. He screams as his armored body makes its last flight past Lando and directly into the mucous mouth of the Sarlacc. The Sarlacc burps. Chewie growls a weak congratulations to Han.

Anton Chigurh: Don't put it in your pocket, sir. Don't put it in your pocket. It's your lucky quarter.

Gas Station Guy: Where do you want me to put it?

Anton Chigurh: Anywhere not in your pocket. Where it'll get mixed in with the others and become just a coin. Which it is.

I guess since I misunderstood the OP, I will change my answer to

"exposed themselves?!"

"Mister, you've got a lot of hard bark on you walking down here like this."

Any line in this final scene in "Hombre" will work but we've said the above line in my family for 50 years:

EXAMPLES:

GOOD EXAMPLE
The guy on the couch from Half Baked: "Thurgood, why don't you just focus on one thing at a time ? l'll be fine. The robbery is what's important now."

It's the only time he ever spoke. Not a great line, but a good example.

BAD EXAMPLE
Darth Vader: "I am your Father"
Count the number of sentences in your "GOOD EXAMPLE" then ask yourself "why am I dumb?"

Why would it matter how many lines they had? A SINGLE line is one sentence, not 3 or 4. If we're allowing a whole speech then the Blade Runner "Tears in Rain" speech wins hands down.

One continuous line of dialogue. Close enough. I didn't call you dumb, though.
I hope you don't feel offended and retreat into your own inner torment for decades on end requiring years of treatment because of my cruel selfish taunting. To imagine you'll be scarred for life is too great a burden for me to bear.

Please find the strength to get through these trying times. We're all pulling for you.
