Movie quote
Belloq: "Look at this. It's worthless (Holds up Atari E.T. cart.) - ten dollars from a vendor in the street. But I take it, I bury it in the sand for thirty years, it becomes priceless. Like the Ark.

I remember someone in a movie saying, "Take something that's junk, bury it for a while until it becomes in fashion again, and it's now worth something."
"And if you bury it for a hundred years it becomes priceless?"
"No, it's pretty much junk again."
"And if you bury it for a hundred years it becomes priceless?"
"No, it's pretty much junk again."
Given the general rise in expenses and fall in the typical standard of living, the future ain't what it used to be.

I had to call my brother and ask him, and he knew immediately. Echoes of a Summer. And looking it up in Wikipedia I remembered it was Jodie Foster who said the line about after you bury it for a hundred years it's junk again.AArdvark wrote:What movie was that?
