'tis really funny when Doyle, after being cured of his drug addiction, is driven through the city, and he sees a woman eating an ice cream. He says: That's what I need now. He's told that a woman would kill him, and he clarifies: Not the woman, moron; what she's eating.
share I also liked in the one of the withdrawal scenes when Doyle's explaining why Whitey Ford was such a great picture, and says he was a lefty in explanation of what a south paw means.
Henri's line "He was a communist?" was too funny.
"Congratulations, Major. It appears that at last you have found yourself a real war." Ben Tyreen
My favourite is when Henri read the file of Doyle in the washroom: "Jimmy Doyle, nickname: popeye ....cute.....spinach !"
he was obviously referring to the popeye cartoon that was quite big in europe at the time...
Actually I always thought Hackman resembles the angry sailor, how could been the 6th choices ?
When Doyle mentioned that's (the woman eating the ice cream) what he needs now, I thought it would be the opposite of how it turned out. The French cop would say, I'll get you a cone (since Doyle was chained up) but then Doyle would say, "Not the ice cream, a-hole, the woman."
I liked much the part when they walk donw the stairs at the beginning and French sais you: "hey, Popeye, you are - how do you say - homesick? I'll send for some spinach"... Lol
The April fool's day fish joke was also funny.
And also I like an old woman whom Doyle pushed aside at the square just before Doyle realised that that the frog 1 boarded a ship. That woman waived with her hand near her head :) LOL
Popeye: "Are you Catholic?"
Henri: "Retired."

I half expected her to yell out "Watsamatta you!?" but then I remembered the film was taking place in France and not Italy.
"Mickey Mantle sucks!", anyone?
shareWhen the woman chucks the water out of the bucket into the street as Doyle walks past; he stops and looks at her as you would.
And the interrogation scene - And then your kneecaps. One, two. Kneecaps. Oatmeal. I'll make oatmeal outta your *beep* kneecaps.
The scene at the bar, with Doyle trying to get a drink, and the exchange between Doyle and Henri during the rehabilitation sequence (apart from the famous Mickey Mantle line) - one of my favourite exchanges being:
HENRI
Tell me about southpaw.
DOYLE
I told you!!
"I'll knock your dick stiff...look at my hat"
shareFavourite moments were with the bar tender getting drunk and then later when Doyle's being held captive the nice old English lady addict steals his watch in the most gentle of ways!

A man's got to know his limitations
The funniest scene, was during one of the shootouts, when out of the blue, you see a scared sh**tless dog go racing by in the opposite direction of the action!
It was so funny, because it was so unexpected..... and so obviously real and unscripted.
I don't know if it has been said already
But the scene where they ask for his passport in his hotel room and he takes off his robe and throws it
It lands in the toilet
I busted out loud with laughter
