Darth Vader's 'Luke, I am your father' is the most misquoted film phrase
London, May 11 (ANI): Darth Vader's comment - "Luke, I am your father" - in one of the Star Wars films is the most misquoted phrase by film fans, according to a poll.
Vader's comment to Luke Skywalker in 'The Empire Strikes Back' has topped the list of the 'movie misquotes'.
The poll revealed that 17pct of film buffs thought that Darth Vader said: "Luke, I am your father."
However, he actually says: "No, I am your father."
The second spot went to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, with the evil Queen's quote: "Mirror, mirror, on the wall - who is the fairest of them all?"
However, she actually says: "Magic Mirror, on the wall."
Dirty Harry, played by Clint Eastwood, saying "Do you feel lucky, punk?" came third, while he actually says: "Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?"
"Play it again, Sam" in the 1942 film 'Casablanca', and "Hello, Clarice" from the 1991 film 'Silence of the Lambs' wrapped up the top five.
