Like any good movie title, any good title drop needs to relate back to the themes of the story and what the filmmakers are trying to say. In Bruges is a great example of this, as it has a lot to say about punishment, Catholicism, and especially, morality.

All of which are summed up here in this single line. There are other lines throughout the film that accomplish this synergy, but this manages to incorporate a title drop into a line that also has to do the job of conveying the theme of the work in a single sentence - thereby pulling double duty, and still coming off completely natural.

A lot of this success has to do with the acting, granted, but the line is still excellent in a vacuum, getting across how trapped our two leads feel by the city of Bruges, the situation they put themselves in, and the lives they lead.
