I don't know why you think posting a part from WIKI automatically makes it match the movie iaind is looking for.

I think that the decision should be iaind's call, after all he is the one who is asking.
If you have a better match, please feel free to post it as well, in the meantime consider that in many cases facts gets crossed, and recollections tend to get mixed up over time. I also have seen the movie, and can see some similarities with iaind's clues.

From Roger Ebert:

The movie is considerably slowed down by the unnecessary character of a suicidal file clerk, who does nothing of any interest until late in the movie, when Nick befriends her in a scene that serves no purpose, except to delay us on our way to the happy climax, which can be seen signaling eagerly from the next reel.
