"Charlie Don't Surf" in the movie?
It's a favorite Clash song of mine.

I love it too.

I actually saw it on Broadway in 2005. It starred Alan Alda; Jeffrey Tambor; Liev Schreiber (who won a Tony award for Best Featured Actor in a Play for his portrayal of Ricky Roma); Gordon Clapp; Tom Wopat; and Frederick Weller. The part Alec Baldwin played in the film was written specifically for him and was not in the play.

I bought a poster and waited outside the theater and got four of the actors to sign it (didn't get Alan Alda or Jeffrey Tambor; they must have left earlier or later than the autograph seekers waiting outside). As soon as I got home, I had the poster framed. Paid $15.00 for the poster and $115 for framing - ha! I didn't mind. It's one of my most prized possessions.

Several years later, there was another revival of it on Broadway with Al Pacino playing Shelley Levine. Boy, would I have loved to see that one.

There are parts of that movie where the dialog is almost lyrical. I'm not a big fan of David Mamet, but he sure got this one right.

I know this could be from a lot of movies, but it was from dialogue between a mismatched couple.
