 Cybill Shepherd Quotation"I think the measure of your success to a certain extent will be the amount of things written about you that aren't true." "When a film wraps, the actors often like to keep some of their props or wardrobe as mementos. I wanted the heart-shaped locket and brown and white saddle shoes that Jacy wore, but (Bogdanovich's wife) Polly was in charge of costumes and wouldn't give them to me. I guess she figured I had enough of a souvenir: her husband." (Commenting on movie debut in "The Last Picture Show") "I had the serendipity of modeling during a temporary interlude between Twiggy and Kate Moss, when it was actually okay for women to look as if we ate and enjoyed life." Movie Title: Martha, Inc.: The Story of Martha Stewart (2003) as Martha Stewart: Martha Stewart : Hey, slut! I'm writing your mother a letter telling her you're a whore. Movie Title: So Graham Norton (1998) as Herself: Himself : You sort of shocked Elvis in a way. Herself : I did. I did. I did. I did. That man loved to eat, I'm telling you. He could eat a plate of chicken-fried steak this big, but there was one thing Elvis wouldn't eat. Movie Title: Chances Are (1989) as Corinne Jeffries: [Corinne hasn't had sex since her husband died 20 years ago] Corinne Jeffries : I don't know if it's just his body I'm attracted to or his soul... or if it's just me. Oh, I'm feeling generally... attracted. The truth is, I'm so ripe I'm about to fall off the vine. [Philip thinks Alex is only after Corinne's money] Corinne Jeffries : You're wrong. He wants my body. Corinne Jeffries : My psychiatrist says I suffer from the halo effect, the tendency of widows to idealize their dead husbands. He says it keeps me from falling in love again. He has a point, but I can't imagine I'll ever stop loving Louie. [to her psychiatrist] Corinne Jeffries : I came here to tell you that I'm interested in someone... a man. Well, he's almost a man... he's twenty-two years old. But it's not like I'm rushing into anything - I've know him for twenty-six years... It's a little complicated. Movie Title: Taxi Driver (1976) as Betsy: Travis Bickle : One of these days I gotta get myself organizized. Betsy : Organizized? Dont you mean organized? Travis Bickle : No, organizized. Betsy : Oh, like that sign that says "Thimk." Betsy : Taking me to a place like this is about as exciting as saying to me "Let's fuck." Travis Bickle : I'll tell you why. I think you're a lonely person. I drive by this place a lot and I see you here. I see a lot of people around you. And I see all these phones and all this stuff on your desk. It means nothing. Then when I came inside and I met you, I saw in your eyes and I saw the way you carried yourself that you're not a happy person. And I think you need something. And if you want to call it a friend, you can call it a friend. Betsy : Are you gonna be my friend? Travis Bickle : Yeah. Travis Bickle : I would say he has quite a few problems. His energy seems to go in the wrong places. When I walked in and I saw you two sitting there, I could just tell by the way you were both relating that there was no connection whatsoever. And I felt when I walked in that there was something between us. There was an impulse that we were both following. So that gave me the right to come in and talk to you. Otherwise I never would have felt that I had the right to talk to you or say anything to you. I never would have had the courage to talk to you. And with him I felt there was nothing and I could sense it. When I walked in, I knew I was right. Did you feel that way? Betsy : I wouldn't be here if I didn't. Betsy : You know what you remind me of? Travis Bickle : What? Betsy : That song by Kris Kristofferson. Travis Bickle : Who's that? Betsy : A songwriter. 'He's a prophet...he's a prophet and a pusher, partly truth, partly fiction. A walking contradiction.' Travis Bickle : [uneasily] You sayin' that about me? Betsy : Who else would I be talkin' about? Travis Bickle : I'm no pusher. I never have pushed. Betsy : No, no. Just the part about the contradictions. You are that. Movie Title: Once Upon a Crime... (1992) as Marilyn Schwary: Marilyn Schwary : Two thousand francs? Hercules Popodopoulos : I'm sorry, is the amount not adequate? Marilyn Schwary : What, are you planning on bringing friends? Listen mister, maybe this is what hookers look like in Greece, but I'm no hooker, I'm a housewife. We do it for free! Hercules Popodopoulos : Madame, I admire your insouciance. Marilyn Schwary : Well, it's the dress; it shows everything. Movie Title: Texasville (1990) as Jacy: Jacy : It's ironic you broke all your ribs right before the Adam and Eve skit. I wonder what a psychiatrist would make of that. Duane : I din't break all my ribs, I just broke three. Jacy : That doesn't affect the irony honey-pie. Jacy : Gameshows are what life's really like. You win things that look great at the time but turn out to be junk, and you lose things you might want to keep forever... just because you're unlucky. Movie Title: Moonlighting (1985) as Maddie / Maddie Hayes / Kate/Maddie: David : And then last night, an idea hit me! Maddie : Left a bruise, I hope. David : Who is the one person out there, who is spreading happiness and joy out there in the world? Maddie : Steven Spielberg? David : SANTY CLAUS!! Maddie : If people are meant to be together, they'll find each other, no matter where, no matter what, right? Isn't that right? Maddie : Just when I think you've gone as low as you can go, you find a basement door! Maddie : You have the morals of rabbit, the character of a slug, and the brain of a platypus. Maddie Hayes : Well, let me remind you Mr. Addison, that one case does not a detective make. David Addison : Well, let me remind you Ms. Hayes, that I HATE IT WHEN YOU TALK BACKWARDS. Maddie Hayes : David, may I please have some ANSWERS?! David Addison : Delaware, all of the above, 90 degrees. Maddie Hayes : That man belongs in a pound. Agnes DiPesto : Pound of what? [Reading a ransom note.] Maddie Hayes : "Exactly"'s all in capital letters. What do you think that means? David Addison : I think it means exactly what it says. Maddie Hayes : Unhand me! David Addison : I'll try, but I don't think they'll come off! Maddie Hayes : Good husband, are we married merrily? David Addison : Yea, verily, we are married merrily... though at first warily, and unfortunately quite sterilely. Maddie Hayes : Wipe that stupid grin off your face. David Addison : This is the smartest grin I know. Security Officer: I'm sorry, but you're not on the guest list. David Addison : That's because we're not guests. We're looking for a man with a mole on his nose. Security Officer: A mole on his nose? Maddie Hayes : A mole on his nose. Security Officer: [to Maddie] What kind of clothes? Maddie Hayes : [to David] What kind of clothes? David Addison : What kind of clothes do you suppose? Security Officer: What kind of clothes do I suppose would be worn by a man with a mole on his nose? Who knows? David Addison : Did I happen to mention, did I bother to disclose, that this man that we're seeking with the mole on his nose? I'm not sure of his clothes or anything else, except he's Chinese, a big clue by itself. Maddie Hayes : How do you do that? David Addison : Gotta read a lot of Dr. Seuss. Security Officer: I'm sorry to say, I'm sad to report, I haven't seen anyone at all of that sort. Not a man who's Chinese with a mole on his nose with some kind of clothes that you can't suppose. So get away from this door and get out of this place, or I'll have to hurt you -- put my foot in your face. Maddie Hayes : David, I just don't think-- David Addison : [interrupting] That's okay, you look good. Petruchio/Addison: You see through me, Kate. No tuner I. But I wish it were within my talents to play piano for you. Kate/Maddie : 'Tis a sad thing indeed. You're the only man I know who suffereth from pianist envy. David Addison : I know who he is, he paints naked girls. Maddie Hayes : Nudes. David Addison : Nudes, right. Nakeds have staples in them. Mortician: This is him, Edward O'Leary. Recognize him? Maddie Hayes : I don't know, we never knew him. Mortician: Then what did you want to look at the body for? Maddie Hayes : What did we want to look at the body for? David Addison : We're private detectives. It's what we do. Mortician: You wanna look at any others while you're here? Maddie Hayes : No thanks. Our limit is one stiff per day. [Maddie grabs David by the throat] Maddie Hayes : Addison! You better figure out a way to get me off this train! David Addison : Whoa! Lady, I will gladly get you off this train. I will throw you off this train, if necessary, but kindly refrain from any physical act that is not of an erotic nature. Maddie Hayes : Brian Baker called me names. Preston Holt lied to me. Omar Gaus mocked me. I don't think I like men anymore. David Addison : We still like you. Maddie Hayes : I didn't even know you had a brother. David Addison : Never thought of him as a brother--just mom and dad's science project. David Addison : Could've fooled me. Maddie Hayes : A gnat with a lobotomy could fool you. David Addison : What about this banquet? I don't want to go. Maddie Hayes : We're going. It's very important. David Addison : Important for what? Okay, it will give us a chance to fight in public, but what else? Maddie Hayes : I wouldn't want you losing any more sleep over me. David Addison : Believe me, if and when I ever find myself over you, the last thing I'll be thinking about is sleeping. Maddie Hayes : I had no idea. David Addison : That's okay. I got lots of 'em. I'll loan you one. Maddie Hayes : You are eye crust! David Addison : The better to see you with, my dear. Maddie Hayes : You are navel lint! David Addison : Expensive navel lint. Maddie Hayes : You are-- David Addison : Don't go much lower, they'll take us off the air. Maddie Hayes : Since when did my personal life outside the office become fair game for your amusement inside the office? David Addison : If I remember correctly, since you started working here. Maddie Hayes : I got an idea! David Addison : Excuse me? Maddie Hayes : An idea. You know, an original thought. You've heard of them. Anyway, I was just lying in my bed last night, just lying there, feeling terrible about telling that poor man that he couldn't write Mrs. Woodley anymore, when suddenly, BA-BING! I get this idea -- David Addison : Ba-what? Maddie Hayes : Huh? David Addison : Ba-what? I thought I just heard you say ba-bing. Maddie Hayes : Ba-bing? So what if I did say ba-bing? So what? Anyway, David, I suddenly realized -- why are you looking at me like that? David Addison : Huh? Maddie Hayes : Why are you looking at me like that? David Addison : You're doing me. Maddie Hayes : I'm WHAT? David Addison : You're doing me, Maddie. You come in here, you slam the door, you say ba-bing, you sit on the corner of that desk -- I know what I'm talking about, Maddie Hayes. This is not just some idea I plucked out of my head willy-nilly -- now I'm doing you! Maddie Hayes : David! Are you all right? David Addison : Trust me Maddie, we are doing this backwards. Let's just go to your office and start all over. Maddie Hayes : You're an animal! David Addison : Exactly. Maddie Hayes : And what does that mean? David Addison : The male of the species engages in sexual congress no less than forty-six thousand, five hundred and three times from the time he is thirteen until the time he runs out of ammo. Maddie Hayes : You know that and you can't remember our zip code? Maddie Hayes : David! Can I have a minute of your time, please? David Addison : Take two, they're small. Maddie Hayes : [singing] I told you I love ya, now get out. Movie Title: Moonlighting (1985) as Madelyn 'Maddie' Hayes: [repeated throughout series during arguments] David Addison : [yelling] Fine! Madelyn 'Maddie' Hayes : [yelling] Fine! [both stalk into their offices and slam the doors behind them] Movie Title: The Last Picture Show (1971) as Jacy Farrow: [Telephone Conversation] Duane Jackson : Hi Jacy, it's Duane. Jacy Farrow : What's on your feeble mind Duane? Jacy Farrow : [to Lester Marlow] Thank God, I'm glad I weren't on fire - I would've burned to death. All you've got is one button undone. |
