De Niro tops best one-liner poll


Robert De Niro's sinister taunt "You talkin' to me?" has been voted the most memorable line in movie history.

The quote, from the star's 1976 film Taxi Driver, topped a poll of 100 UK cinema managers.

Second choice was Sean Connery's: "Bond, James Bond" - ahead of Michael Caine's "What's it all about?" from Alfie.

The poll was conducted by the Odeon cinema chain reports The Sun.

Spokesman Richard Storton said: "Old catchphrases have clearly stood the test of time."
