G U A R A N T E D T O M A K E Y O U L A F F….  
As a court clerk, I am well-versed in the jury selection process. First a computer randomly selects a few hundred citizens from the entire county to report for jury duty on a particular day. Then another computer assigns 40 of those present to a courtroom. Then the 40 names are placed into a drum, and a dozen names are pulled. During jury selection for one trial, the judge asked potential Juror No. 1 if there was any reason he could not be a fair and impartial juror. “There may be,” he replied. “Juror No. 12 is my ex-wife, and if we were on the same jury, I guarantee we would not be able to agree on anything.” Both were excused.

What movie is this quote from??? “You’re tearing me apart!” “What?” “You, you say one thing, he says another, and everybody changes back again!” “That’s a fine way to behave!” “Well, you know who he takes after.”
 
Answer: Rebel Without a Cause! In this scene rebellious and troubled teenager Jim Stark (James Dean) is trying to explain to his parents why they are the cause of much of his inner turmoil. Both his parents are present in this scene, but his father (Jim Backus) says nothing. Jim cries line one in anguish and his surprised mother (Ann Doran) says line two. Jim explains with line three and his annoyed mother says line four. Jim’s grandmother adds line five. In one telling scene Jim tells a police court psychiatrist (Edward Platt) how his domineering mother and his paternal grandmother make “mush” out of his father. In another telling scene, his father is wearing a frilly apron while on his hands and knees, when Jim gently pulls him upright and says, “Dad… stand… don’t…”
 
In the 1958 Academy Awards “Rebel Without a Cause” was nominated for three Academy Awards, including Natalie Wood for Best Actress in a Supporting Role and Sal Mineo for Best Actor in a Supporting Role, but it didn’t win any. The three main young actors in this movie all died young: James Dean died in a car accident at age 24, Sal Mineo was stabbed to death in a robbery at age 37, and Natalie Wood drowned at age 43. The three movies James Dean starred in before his death were “East of Eden” (1955), “Rebel Without a Cause” (1955), and “Giant” (1956).
