First and Last, Walk Away

on the first and last images from motion pictures. I should note here that for future reference "first" shot always refers to the first image with something in it. I've jettisoned way too many movies because they start with a shot of an empty blue sky. Doing this series I've realized that a great number of movies start with a blank blue screen (sky) and then pan down to a building, house, yard, person or skyline or some such, as is the case here.

A great number of movies end with shots of people walking down streets, too. So here's another clue in the first and last lines of dialogue:

first: How about I dry you off?
last: by the time I count to fifty. One...

Can you guess the movie?

The answer is after the jump.
