"The Hollywood Reporter" surveyed more than 1,600 producers, directors, actors, agents, publicists, craft workers, and, of course, writers.

For the latest issue of "The Hollywood Reporter," the trade magazine surveyed more than 1,600 producers, directors, actors, agents, publicists, craft workers, and, of course, writers.

From the valley girl slang in "Clueless" to Marlon Brando lamenting his has-been status in "On the Waterfront," memorable movie dialogue stays with audiences long after the credits role. "As if" you can't quote your favorite movie lines - by heart and in character.

The feature also includes backstories behind some of those terrific lines.

What would top your list?
