It was a commercial success and has become a cult classic but wasn't actually a blockbuster. It is certainly famous enough to be known and recently appeared muchly on the blitz of top 50/100 movie polls there have been this year.

Er... I meant KJ was right, and should I give another quote.
TOM

. . .well? Spit it out, Ush!
USH

Ok.
"There is one crime that cannot be forgiven. And that is desertion in the face of the enemy. The man who deserts can expect NO mercy. Jesus Christ is our commanding officer. And we are ALL deserters."

The Ten Commandments?
USH

Nah. Wouldn't that be pre-Jesus, anyway?
TOM
ToMaccoMr. Orange
Is it a modern movie, or one about Jesus?
USH
UshgarakPaladin
Modern (though ageing a little now in both time it was made and the time it depicted)

Another clue, Ush. How about another line from the movie.

It is a British film, it was directed by Lindsay Anderson.
Another quote:
"Go and warm a lavatory seat for me. I will be ready in five minutes."

Wait a sec! That line comes from the book "Boy" from Roald Dahl... perhaps the movie of Boy?
