Movies where the title is said only once, as the last line of dialogue

what about Antelope Don't Run No More?

I think one could sneak into this category by making an untitled silent film.

Watched one tonight

4. And We Were Young (2015)

5. Permanent Vacation (1980)

6. While You were Sleeping
7. The Great Mouse Detective

Oh yeah from KM!
8. The Breakfast Club

"So, I guess Rosebud was the sled... of CITIZEN KANE!"

"Lemme tell ya, Lance. This war's really starting to feel like the apocalypse now."

"You blew it up! Damn you to hell! You blew up... THE PLANET OF THE APES!"

I still say Leo McKern's last drowned-out dialogue line of "Help" qualifies.

that one is iffy since it's obviously in the title song, but - and it's been a long time since I've seen Help! - appearing in a song, sung, is not "said" or "dialogue," so I guess it fits

Ta.

The Hours did this.

That's The Way of The World (IIRC)

"Once more, we have survived the threat of war and found a fragile peace. I thought I could give you all the gift of the freedom from war, but I was wrong. It's not mine to give. We're still a young planet. There are galaxies out there. Other civilizations for us to meet and to learn from. What a brilliant future we could have. And there will be peace – there will be peace when the people of this world want it so badly that their governments will have no choice but to give it to them. I just wish you could all see the Earth the way that I see it. Because when you really look at it, it's just Superman IV: The Quest for Peace"

The Wicker Man almost makes it but then there's a bit of swearing and singing afterwards.. damn.

Yea "Tubthumping" plays

"and that's when i learned why they called it The Brown Bunny"

haven't seen it but i'm just going to assume that The Man Who Walked Up A Hill And Came Down A Mountain is one of these

Insane Clown Posse

Can't believe nobody has mentioned Juggalos yet

 [closing narration] Dear Mr. Vernon, we accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong. But we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us - in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is
Violent J
and Shaggy 2 Dope
Does that answer your question?
Sincerely yours, the Insane Clown Posse

Too many jokes itt. I want to see a real list. Looks like we're close to ten examples if not more.

Got this via cheating, but "I, Frankenstein" is the last line of "I, Frankenstein" (2014) and I doubt it's said before then.

Abre los ojos ("Open Your Eyes") ends with a woman's voice saying "abre los ojos", though I don't remember if it's said earlier in the movie. IIRC Vanilla Sky (the Hollywood remake) also ends with the same line, not with someone saying "vanilla sky".

My wife's parents watched the whole of "No Country for Old Men" which ends with two old men sat discussing events.

"B-but they didn't say it!"

(it was definitely implied, though)

Abre Los Ojos also begins with someone saying the title iirc.

Spotlight does it, do they say it beforehand though? I'm assuming they.. must but can't remember.

But what we found out is that each one of us is
Violent J
and Shaggy 2 Dope

I was thinking of this one too, but someone yells "Faygo!" after that so I don't think it counts.

When I finally came in, Debbie was home from work, and I told her everything about baby's day out.

actually it ends with Tommy Lee Jones' character describing a dream to his wife, the old men discussing the condition of the country is a couple scenes earlier </sic>

XPs They say "Spotlight" alot, since it's the name of their department.

yeah but that is a good example, I liked Spotlight but remember laughing really hard at that last line bc Michael Keaton picked up the phone and said "Spotlight!" like Batman

I haven't seen the movie but I thought his character's name was Bob Spotlight?

close, he goes by Robert

Robert Anthony Spotlight, of the Amherst Spotlights.

Hard To Be A God comes very close to this actually

I worked at a movie theater when this was out and lots of old people came out of it different levels of furious and confused at the ending, my favorite being the baffled lady who approached me shaking her head saying "I don't get it... so it was all just a DREAM??"

What did that demo think of the end of There Will Be Blood?

Not enough bowling iirc

otm tbh

5. Permanent Vacation (1980)

^^^ especially noteworthy as jarmusch goes out of his way to have "my boyfriend's back" playing from a car stereo earlier in the film, then cut it off just before it gets to the title phrase.

ah good catch!

How Green Was My Valley (1941) just barely misses, final line: "How green was my valley then..."

need confirmation on these:

9. The Hours (2002)
10. That's the Way of the World (1975)
11. I, Frankenstein (2014)

Ha, I searched text but didn't scan for images. Well no harm in allowing ol' Moe to tug our heartstrings once a year or so

9. The Hours (2002)

Have to withdraw this one as it isn't only said once.
