Between Mel Brooks ( "That was my virgin-alarm. It's programmed to go off
before you do!") and Woody Allen ("Hey, don't knock masturbation! It's
sex with someone I love.") they could fill pages. What I find inspiring is
dialogue that just keeps rolling. And no one could deliver better than
Barbara Stanwyck. For those born during Nixon's Presidency, Barbara
Stanwyck was an actress of such range (sex, drama, comedy and everything in
between) that its unlikely she will ever be equaled except for maybe Irene
Dunne (oh...for those born during Nixon's Presidency, Irene Dunne was an
actress.............)
Stanwyck & MacMurray DOUBLE INDEMNITY
_Phyllis_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001766/) : Mr. Neff, why don't you
drop by tomorrow evening about eight-thirty. He'll be in then.
_Walter Neff_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0534045/) : Who?
_Phyllis_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001766/) : My husband. You were
anxious to talk to him weren't you?
_Walter Neff_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0534045/) : Yeah, I was, but I'm
sort of getting over the idea, if you know what I mean.
_Phyllis_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001766/) : There's a speed limit in
this state, Mr. Neff. Forty-five miles an hour.
_Walter Neff_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0534045/) : How fast was I
going, officer?
_Phyllis_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001766/) : I'd say around ninety.
_Walter Neff_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0534045/) : Suppose you get down
off your motorcycle and give me a ticket.
_Phyllis_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001766/) : Suppose I let you off
with a warning this time.
_Walter Neff_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0534045/) : Suppose it doesn't
take.
_Phyllis_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001766/) : Suppose I have to whack
you over the knuckles.
_Walter Neff_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0534045/) : Suppose I bust out
crying and put my head on your shoulder.
_Phyllis_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001766/) : Suppose you try putting
it on my husband's shoulder.
_Walter Neff_ (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0534045/) : That tears it.
