“If You Were Here” by the Thompson Twins plays as Samantha (Molly Ringwald) and Jake kiss over her birthday cake. (Sixteen Candles)
Just before Meg Ryan goes to meet her online mystery man, Tom Hanks wonders “Well... if I hadn't been "Fox Books" and you hadn't been "The Shop Around the Corner," and you and I had just met... I would've asked for your number. And I wouldn't have been able to wait 24 hours before calling you up and saying, Hey, how about... oh, how about some coffee, or drinks, or dinner, or a movie... for as long as we both shall live?” in You’ve Got Mail.
Drew Barrymore in the first ten minutes (and only the first ten minutes) of Scream.
Scarlett vows, “As God is my witness, as God is my witness they're not going to lick me! I'm going to live through this and when it's all over, I'll never be hungry again! No, nor any of my folk.
