Name the Movie from the Quote

[blake_logan]

And to follow on with the apparent mother theme.....

 

"I'm not going to put her in a home. I'm going to kill her."

[thebrinkoftime]

Throw Momma From the Train, the Danny Devito classic with that broad from the goonies?

[blake_logan]

Nope.  The quoted movie was about 17 years before 'Throw Mama...'

[blake_logan]

Hmmm....perhaps another clue is in order.  A second quote from the movie:  "I'd know that tush anywhere!"

[BEKelley]

Is that from Love and Other Disasters?  If so, then:

 

“Youth ages, immaturity is outgrown, ignorance can be educated, and drunkenness sobered, but stupid lasts forever.”

[Kiltie69]

Ok that one gave it away I think, Going Ape.  Poor Gordon.

 

[blake_logan]

Sorry, B_E.  There are lots of good quotes from "Love & other Disasters", but that's not one of them.

 

I've always known this movie as "Where's Poppa?" but checking for additional quotes last night, I discovered that it is also known as "Going Ape" so contratulations to Kilty for a correct guess.

 

Directed by Carl Reiner, it's the story of a dutiful son, Gordon Hocheiser (played by George Segal), who promised his father on his death bed that he would take care of  his mother (played by Ruth Gordon) and never put her in a home.  As mom's dementia progressed, Gordon's life went to hell while his brother Sidney continually reminded him of his promise to his dying father.  The mother would frequently ask "Where's Poppa?", hence the title.   I guess the a.k.a. "Going Ape" title came from the scenes where Gordon wears a gorilla costume. Highly recommended if you're into dark comedy.  Not politically correct.

[Kiltie69]
