Every decade has its funny movie lines, and the 1990s were no different. When actors deliver their best comedic lines, even in dramatic films, you can laugh, forget everyday details, and enjoy the plot that much more. Ideally, entertaining lines from comedies and dramas elevate us to a lighter, happier place, if only for a few moments.

BT: “Like I said, we’ll finish this tomorrow.”
