“YOU’RE AN INANIMATE FUCKING OBJECT!” – In Bruges (2008)
Last but by no means least is this fantastic exchange between a husband and wife on Christmas Day in In Bruges. Ralph Fiennes’s mobster Harry reacts poorly to the news that his hired man has refused a job, and goes on to take his frustration out on the phone, what his wife correctly points out is “an inanimate fucking object”. Without thinking, he explodes with all the wit of a telemarketer, with the hilarious comeback, “YOU’RE AN INANIMATE FUCKING OBJECT,” before going on to deliver an earnest apology.
