![]() Lee Grant Quotation"Many of the things I accomplished in life are because I was dead set on proving somebody wrong." "The 'Oscar' has endured because of our yearning for excellence. Getting one is like being appointed valedictorian from the bottom of the class. The 'outs' like me, get their moment to be 'in', for as long as it lasts." Movie Title: Mulholland Dr. (2001) as Louise Bonner: Betty Elms : (opens door) Yes? May I help you? Louise Bonner : Someone is in trouble. Who are you? What are you doing in Ruth's apartment? Betty Elms : She's letting me stay here. I'm her niece. My name's Betty. Louise Bonner : No, it's not. That's not what she said. Someone is in trouble. Something bad is happening! Movie Title: Citizen Cohn (1992) as Dora Cohn: Dora Cohn : You're telling this boy how to live? You are? Albert Cohn : That's the idea. Dora Cohn : [firmly] Don't. He's MINE. This is one boy they're NEVER going to forget! Movie Title: Plaza Suite (1971) as Norma Hubley: Norma Hubley : Roy, just talk nicely and she'll come out. Roy Hubley : We've had "nice talking," now we're gonna have "door breaking." [coaxing his wife while she's on the phone] Roy Hubley : Shtall em, shtall em. Just keep shtalling em. Whatever you do shtall em! Norma Hubley : [on the phone to the wedding reception] Yes Mrs. Eisler we'll be down in two minutes. Roy Hubley : Are you crazy?! I told you to shtall em! Norma Hubley [innocently]: I did stall them - you've got two minutes. [Peering through the keyhole on the bathroom door] Norma Hubley : Oh my god! Roy Hubley : What is it?! Norma Hubley : I ripped my stockings. Roy Hubley : Is she in there? Norma Hubley : She's in there, she's in there. Where am I going to get another pair of stockings? Roy Hubley : Well if she doesn't show up who's gonna look at you? Movie Title: Defending Your Life (1991) as Lena Foster: Bob Diamond : Did we ever stop to think that this young boy had a bond with his father? I don't think it had anything to do with the friend. I just think Daniel couldn't lie to his dad. That's all. Lena Foster : You're nodding, Mr. Miller. Does that mean you agree with Mr. Diamond? Daniel Miller : Oh, yes. I had a bond with my father. I pretty much never lied to him. Lena Foster : You never lied to your father? Would you like me to show you at least 500 examples? Daniel Miller : I said "pretty much" never lied. I didn't say I never, ever lied. You have to lie sometimes... in an emergency. But, ah, it doesn't mean the bond is affected. If you've got the bond the bond is always there, and if you have to lie occasionally you're not going to interfere with the bond. You know, the bond can wait for a little lie and... in the end it's there for you. You know, sometimes in the middle of a lie I found that the bond would kick in... maybe squeeze a little truth out. Bob Diamond : Psst, wrap it up. Daniel Miller : I'm through. |
