 Irma P. Hall QuotationMovie Title: Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil (1997) as Minerva: [At the cemetery for a funeral.] John Kelso : Why don't you come in? Minerva : I never enter the office on Sunday. Ba-a-d juju. Minerva : To understand the living, you got to commune with the dead. Movie Title: Soul Food (1997) as Mama Joe: Mama Joe : A family has got to stay strong. Movie Title: Buddy (1997) as Emma: Emma : It's enough to drive you to the nut house. Of course this place probably already is the nut house. Movie Title: The Ladykillers (2004) as Marva Munson: Marva Munson : Niggas! Two thousand years after Jesus, thirty years after Martin Luther King, the age of Montel; sweet Lord of mercy is that where we at? Marva Munson : The apostle John said, "Behold, there is a stranger in our midst come to destroy us." Professor G.H. Dorr : [soon after he has fallen from a tree] I also hold a number of other advanced degrees, including the baccalaureate from a school in Paris, France, called the Sorbonne. Marva Munson : Sore bone. Well, that fits. Marva Munson : [walking in after the explosion in the basement] Professor, I'm surprised! Professor G.H. Dorr : Well... uh... properly speaking, madam, we are surprised. You are taken aback. Though I do acknowledge that the sense that you intend is gaining increasing currency through its use, yes. Marva Munson : Now I want to know what's goin' on. Professor G.H. Dorr : Oh, indeed, indeed. The thirst for knowledge is a very commendable thing. Though I do believe that when you hear the explanation you shall laugh riotously, slappin' your knee and perhaps even wipin' away a giddy tear, relieved of your former concern. Lump here is an avid collector of Indian arrowheads, and having found one simply lying on your cellar floor - a particularly rare artifact of the Natchez tribe? Lump Hudson : Nats... what? Professor G.H. Dorr : He enlisted the entire ensemble in an all-out effort to sift through the subsoil in search of others. And apparently, in doing so, we hit a mother lode of natural gas. I myself became acutely aware of the smell of "rotten eggs." And it was just at this inopportune moment that the General here violated the cardinal rule of this house and lit himself a cigarette. The General : So sorry. Marva Munson : Well, what about all that money? Professor G.H. Dorr : Ah. The money. Well, the money is Mr. Pancake's. Garth Pancake : That's right. Professor G.H. Dorr : Who only just remortgaged his home in order to raise the money for a surgical procedure that will correct the wandering eye of his common-law wife, Mountain Water, who suffers from astigmia, strabismus and a general curdling of the vitreous jelly. Mr. Pancake is an ardent foe of the Federal Reserve, and is, in fact, one of those eccentrics one often reads about hoardin' his entire life savings, in Mr. Pancake's case, in a Hefty bag that is his constant companion. The Steel Sak. Garth Pancake : Don't trust the banks. Never have. |
