@samjonze i dont get it...what's so significant about that?

Brilliant dialogue.
Keeps the viewer engaged, and thrilled as much they are in their flirting!!

Body language, eye-contact, metaphor and double entendre, subtle but sexually charged. This is master film-making.

This was when broads could take care of themselves, weren't afraid to slap a guy when he deserved it, instead of relying on politically correct laws.

your theory is correct

This screams 1940's

"I wonder if you wonder." How nice to see another, darker, non-Three-Sons Fred McMurray. Thanks.

There's no better scene in all of noir!! That dialogue is a big part of what the genre is all about!
And in my own biased, opinionated mind, it validates a theory of mine: namely that the censors, quite unintentionally, helped create the feel of noir! They didn't allow overtly sexual talk or bedroom scenes, so the filmmakers (in the better movies) developed the double entendre into an art form. You just don't see it done to that level in modern movies. See "Detour" for another example.

They don't do anything like this cinematically anymore.
