The Game
Movie Quote Quiz

Christine: What is the going rate for a trapped-in-an-elevator adventure?

Nicholas: Seymour Butts. Never get tired of that one.

Nicholas: I don't care about the money. I'm pulling back the curtain. I want to meet the wizard.

Conrad: They just fuck you and they fuck you and they fuck you, and then just when you think it's all over, that's when the real fucking starts.

Nicholas: No, what is this? What are you... selling?
Jim Feingold: Oh. It's a game.

Nicholas: I got this key out of a mouth of this... wooden clown.
Christine: ...Never mind.

Conrad: They won't leave me alone! I'm a goddam human piƱata.

New Member Ted: You know, I envy you. I wish I could go back and do it for the first time, all over again. Here's to new experiences.

Nicholas: I'm being toyed with by a bunch of depraved children.

Nicholas: Did I have a choice? Did I have a choice?

Daniel Schorr: Discovering the object of the game is the object of the game.

Jim Feingold: The game is tailored specifically to each participant. Think of it as a great vacation, except you don't go to it, it comes to you.

Jim Feingold: We're like an experiential Book-of-the-Month Club.

Deliberate mistake: Every time Nicholas enters his gate at home, it's daylight and then when he drives up to the house it is night. Either he has a 300 mile property or there is something else going on. It would appear that it is deliberate as it happens many times in the film. Symbolically, Nick is leaving the world as he appears with wealth and privilege (light) and entering the real van Orton world of solitude and sadness (dark). (00:09:00 - 00:09:55)

Trivia: The final party scene was filmed over a three night period at the real Palace Hotel. To save money, the same food was used all three nights, which stank up the place for days.
