TWO FILMS WHICH DO IT EXACTLY (THE VERY LAST WORDS):
โ The Breakfast Club
It's the voice-over of the note the guy leaves the teacher, ending, "Yours sincerely, the Breakfast Club".
โ The Big Sleep (1978)
Set in London, with Robert Mitchum. It ends with a voice-over, basically quoting the book more-or-less verbatim. A good final monologue. Pity the film is absolutely terrible.
TWO FILMS WHICH PRETTY MUCH DO IT:
โ Cool Hand Luke
Once again a voice-over, George Kennedy saying "That old Luke smile. Oh, Luke. He was some boy. Cool Hand Luke, hell. He was a natural-born world-shaker."
โ Whoโs Afraid Of Virginia Woolf
Basically Richard Burton is saying "Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf?" and Elizabeth Taylor is saying "I am, George . . . I am."
Interestingly, Scorsese does a title drop (or almost-title-drop) near the end several times:
โ Goodfellas, in the voice-over, he says "we were wiseguys . . . goodfellas. And now it's all over" etc etc
โ Raging Bull, when he's practicing his nightclub act, & says "just give me a stage, where this bull here can rage" or something
โ The Departed, at the funeral for Leonardo DiCaprio
