What does that mean, a quote in the cookie file?
No guesses? Do we want hints or do we just not care and want to move on? Admittedly, the movie itself is a bit obscure, but the quote is typical of the writer/director...in fact, this was his debut film. Coming up with the writer/director will get you the win. Then you can pick from this studio filled with fabulous prizes.

I know, but I won't say. But I bet Austin Power's "Allow myself to introduce myself", and "Danger is my middle name", is an hommage to the movie.

Yes, you're probably right! Same genre, for sure.

Nope, not Python.
Thanks Clodfobble! I hadn't noticed that before! Do we want the answer, or does anyone else have a guess? (

No to all the above.
Another hint: A quote from one of this writer/director's well-known movies sounds an awful lot like his personal life: She's 17. I'm 42 and she's 17. I'm older than her father, can you believe that? I'm dating a girl, wherein, I can beat up her father.

It must be a Woody Allen flick. Casino Royale?

Woody Allen it is! Since I said getting the writer/director would suffice it looks like Jinx got it.
The movie is "What's Up, Tiger Lily" and it was a Japanese spy film that Woody bought, removed the voice track and dubbed his own, the new plot centering around a secret egg salad recipe. It's pretty funny. Your turn, Jinx!

God damn it, that's not all!! 'Cause if one of those things get down here then that will be all! And all this bullshit that you think is so important, you can kiss all that goodbye!
