I saw this movie when it came out in theaters. TT has commented on knowing who the kid was, I only knew the movie but it blew me away.
For some reason, the stuff Sonny said always stuck with me. Around the Poker Table we all agreed this was sage advice.
[ QUOTE ]
Sonny: Alright, listen to me. You pull up right where she lives, right? Before you get outta the car, you lock both doors. Then, get outta the car, you walk over to her. You bring her over to the car. Dig out the key, put it in the lock and open the door for her. Then you let her get in. Then you close the door. Then you walk around the back of the car and look through the rear window. If she doesn't reach over and lift up that button so that you can get in: dump her.

Calogero 'C' Anello: Just like that?

Sonny: Listen to me, kid. If she doesn't reach over and lift up that button so that you can get in, that means she's a selfish broad and all you're seeing is the tip of the iceberg. You dump her and you dump her fast.

and of course, who could forget...
[ QUOTE ]
Sonny: You gotta do what your heart tells you to do. Let me tell you somethin' right now. You're only allowed three great women in your lifetime. They come along like the great fighters, every ten years. Rocky Marciano. Sugar Ray Robinson. Joe Louis. Sometimes you get 'em all at once. Me? I had my three when I was 16. That happens. What are you gonna do? That's the way it goes, you know? Tell you right now. See this girl? Maybe this girl, she put wind in your sails. Maybe she's your first great one.

and of course, if she don't reach over and grab that door lock or handle, she's not one of the great ones - the door test knows all /images/graemlins/grin.gif
To this day, I'll still lock my driver's side door once in a while and see if she'll reach over before I get there...it's easy when your car is a P.O.S. that doesn't have auto-locking doors /images/graemlins/mad.gif
and I keep thinking to myself "crap...only got two great ones left - already used up one."
