  • The question is simply stated in the subject. Again, from which movie is the quote: "I would walk on glass and eat donkeys for you."


  • Excellent and detailed answer. Research well done, juggler. Thanks. :)


  • Hello.

    The movie was "My Boyfriend's Back" (1993).
    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107626/

    The actor who uttered the line was Matthew Fox, now known from the television show "Lost."
    I ran the quote through a newspaper database available through my local public libray and came up with:
    'It's time to take another look at 1993's "My Boyfriend's Back," a comedy about a teenager who dies, and then crawls out of his grave to take his dream date to the prom. ...Matthew Fox of "Party of Five" looks very clean-cut as the dead guy's rival, Buck Van Patten. Fox wears tennis sweaters and a letterman's jacket, and woos his steady by saying things like, "I would walk on glass and eat donkeys for you."' source: Chicago Sun-Times, June 8, 1998, page 33

    A "Lost" fan also mentioned the quote last year on a messageboard devoted to that show:
    "... i also like how he said he would eat donkeys for her.. how random was that??!!" source: Lost Forum, 4/26/205
