What's Eating Gilbert Grape?

Becky:
Tell me what you want, as fast as it comes to you.

Gilbert:
Uhh...

Becky:
Okay?

Gilbert:
'Kay.

Becky:
Okay. What do you want?

[He's thinking about it]

Becky:
Faster!

Gilbert:
Okay. I want a new thing. House. I want a new house. And a family.

[He sighs heavily]

Gilbert:
I want Momma to take aerobics classes. I want Ellen to grow up. I want a new brain for Arnie. I want...

Becky:
What do you want for you? Just for you?

Gilbert:
I want to be a good person.

Gilbert:
[climbing of the water tower] It's not going to happen again. This is the last time. Right Arnie?

Arnie:
It's the last time.

Gilbert:
Okay. Let's go.

Arnie:
But I want to go back up there again.

Becky:
I love the sky. It's so limitless.

Gilbert:
It is big. It's very big.

Becky:
Big doesn't even sum it up, right? That word big is so small.

Gilbert:
You know what? You're such a big boy.

Arnie:
Yeah!

Gilbert:
You're such a big boy.

Arnie:
I'm a big boy!

Gilbert:
You know what? I bet you could do this all by yourself if you really wanted to. Could you do this by yourself?

Arnie:
I'm a big boy!

Gilbert:
Yeah, you're a big boy. Now take this...

Arnie:
Take this.

Gilbert:
Wash everything, your towels are there.

Arnie:
Okay!

Gilbert:
And your robe is there.

Arnie:
Okay! The big boy is gonna wash himself!

Gilbert:
[to Becky] I don't know what to say.

Arnie:
Say "thank you," Gilbert. "Thank you."

Gilbert:
[whispering] Thank you.

Betty:
Hey. I could have had any guy, any guy, but I chose you. I chose you.

Gilbert:
Why did you?

Betty:
[pause] Because... I knew you'd always be there. Because I knew you'd never leave.

Gilbert Grape:
We don't really move. I mean, we'd like to, but... my mom is sort of attached to the house. Attached is, I guess, not the right word. She's pretty much wedged in.

Gilbert Grape:
I know a boy whose name is Arnie... he's, uh, 'bout to turn 18 and have a big party. I know a boy whose name is Arnie. C'mon down, buddy.

Arnie Grape:
I'm having a birthday party, but you're not invited, but you can come if you want.
