4.  “I’ve been surrounded my entire life by black faces. I only have one question: Why don’t they just rise up and kill the whites?” – Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio) – Django Unchained (Dir. Quentin Tarantino) (Screenwriter: Quentin Tarantino)

Quentin Tarantino’s candid approach to making a spaghetti western set in America’s slavery times is perfectly outlined here by Calvin Candie, who exemplifies the no-holds-barred attitude of the movie’s writer/director – and soon enough, Django himself.

5. “We’re in love. We just want to be together. What’s wrong with that?” – Suzy (Kara Hayward) – Moonrise Kingdom (Dir. Wes Anderson) (Screenwriter: Wes Anderson/Roman Coppola)

12-year-old Suzy breaks down her feelings with heart-aching simplicity, making a case for young love that no adult could easily rebute.

6. “Slavery, sir? It’s done.” – Abraham Lincoln (Daniel Day-Lewis) – Lincoln (Dir. Steven Spielberg) (Screenwriter: Tony Kushner)

President Lincoln’s agenda is nicely compressed into a single quote, one which highlights his respectful nature and relentless gusto – and an unrivalled dedication to see the cause through to the very end.
