Beat me to it. And 6 is the Marx Brothers, but I can't remember which movie.

helflaed has quoted the entire dialogue within the film - the best part is it's said by Marcel Marceau. You should be able to remember it from that.

I see - thanks.

"Non" is theonly line of dialogue in the entire film- and is delivered by Marcel Marsaud!
