The Gambler
Movie Quote Quiz

Neville Baraka: What about your family?
Jim Bennett: I got all I could get.
Neville Baraka: Can I get the money from them? If I send you to Mexico, you know, 'Oh my God! I don't know what happened to him!' Get my friend Valario to mail 'em your dick.
Jim Bennett: My family don't make the money because they pay up easily.
Neville Baraka: Apparently that's genetic.

Roberta: I've said goodbye before to people I love.
Jim Bennett: Yeah, whatever did happen to Dad?

Jim Bennett: You're born as a man with the nerves of a soldier, the apprehension of an angel.

Jim Bennett: I could stand here, stark naked, and I could yell AS loud AS I want, and nobody would care.

Jim Bennett: I'll do the best I can. You can go knowing that, okay?
Ed: You're me now... if you'll have it.

Revealing mistake: Jim parts his hair on the left side. The stacks of his books on display in the hallway include a photo of him with his hair parted on the right side, but otherwise looking the same. Hair that is persistently parted on one side will not easily part on the other side and lay across the head in the same way. (The image was reversed). (00:25:20)

Trivia: The name of the L.A. University where Jim is a professor is not pointed out, but it must be fictional. The West L.A. College (WLAC) has a basketball team nicknamed the "Wildcats" and Lamar's basketball uniform (white with red lettering and trim) looks strikingly similar to those worn by WLAC Wildcats, but WLAC is a community (two-year) college where Lamar could not be a "junior."
