Meet Joe Black?
No. Hint:

"You know, my grandfather was an egg farmer."

"This isn't going to be about your, uh, "rough childhood," is it?

"No, I used to candle eggs at his farm. Do you know what that is? You hold an egg up to the light of a candle and you look for imperfections. The first time I did it he told me to put all the eggs that were cracked or flawed into a bucket for the bakery. And he came back an hour later, and there were 300 eggs in the bakery bucket. He asked me what the hell I was doing. I found a flaw in every single one of them - you know, thin places in the shell; fine, hairline cracks. You look closely enough, you'll find that everything has a weak spot where it can break, sooner or later."

"You looking for mine?"

"I've already found yours."

"What is it?"

"You're a winner, Willy."

"Yeah. Well, I guess the joke's on me then, isn't it?"

"You bet your a**, old sport."

Great movie (it is on my PVR) - Fracture - great performances by Anthony Hopkins and that young feller (Ryan Gosling?)

You're thinking of Chinatown (Big Trouble in Little China is also a movie, starring Kurt Russell), but no. :smile2:
" Two Navy men are ordered to bring a young offender to prison but decide to show him one last good time along the way."
The Last Detail - 1973

sheesh - I was only 16!
(Hurry up and guess the answer in Hangman as I must log off soon (please!)
