I'll guess "To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar"

Ooo nice one.

Just rewatched that end scene to be certain in my own mind and teared up just seeing it! Always thought it was such a moving film.

Don't they also say the title in the middle of the film:

During their conversation, the pair are released by a drunken Hara, as a different prisoner confessed to delivering the radio. As they leave, Hara calls out in English, "Merry Christmas, Lawrence!"

"It's one of those films where the central conflict wouldn't work nowadays because of the existence of mobile phones. If the film had been made today the scientists could have simply phoned up the ants and sorted out their differences instead of spending several days trying to kill them all."

Can I just say that this joke deserved more applause than it got, which was no applause. Reading it back even I was surprised by the punchline, and I wrote it, although it was three years ago and a long time ago because that was pre-COVID. 2019 was pre-COVID, wasn't it? A long time ago.

Long time ago. I'd forgotten about this thread. I suggested Themroc because the dialogue is just screeching. Isn't there an Orson Welles film where he reads about the credits? But the last line would be "and this film is copyright RKO pictures 1949 all rights reserved" and Orson Welles never directed a film with that title.

A qualified entry here:

The Outfit (1973) was released in certain regions as The Good Guys Always Win, which is the last line of dialogue in the movie, said only once.

“And then they realized, they were no longer little girls: they were little women.”

Is one of the best Simpsons jokes of all time because I, and number of other people, are so illiterate that they think the joke is just Moe crying and that’s how little women ends. pic.twitter.com/2ZzdR5KeL4

Just realized that The Byrds' "Eight Miles High" opens with the title phrase, which is never repeated again for the rest of the song

not sure if it's the last line but "I think we'll call you the Super Mario Brothers" was definitely in the last few minutes of the 1991 movie. think that line's in the new movie too

I think Bogdanovich's "What's Up Doc?" does end with Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd singing the title; but the phrase first shows up somewhat early in the film, then several times more near the ending.

Sweetie, You Won't Believe It

Assuming the translation is accurate. Fun movie, anyway.
