3. Witches of Eastwick
“I think – no, I’m positive – that you are the most unattractive man I have ever met in my entire life. You know, in the short time we’ve been together, you have demonstrated every loathsome characteristic of the male personality and even discovered a few new ones. You are physically repulsive, intellectually retarded, you’re morally reprehensible, vulgar, insensitive, selfish, stupid, you have no taste, a lousy sense of humour and you smell. You’re not even interesting enough to make me sick.”
The real beauty in this insult is the way it grows with each passing word- from just mild distaste to practically characterizing the subject of this sneer as Satan himself (sorry, spoilers). The Witches of Eastwick is full of clever dialogue like this- but you won’t find a better brush-off in movie history than this one.
