Quotes 

• Gloria Marlowe : You ungrateful, untalented hypocrite.

• Gloria Marlowe : And, what were you when I co-starred you in my pictures? An obscure ham, riding on my ability, and you knew it. That's why you quit Hollywood before you were thrown out.

  Thornton Sayre : There's one little mistake, my dear. I quit Hollywood before you were thrown out.

• Gloria Marlowe : And why do you think you were so popular in those films on television? Because I made you a star again. By deceiving all of those nice little women into believing that you were the greatest lover since Casanova. Ho, ho, ho, what a laugh. You've got a heart as cold as a frozen halibut. And, you couldn't act your way out of a wet paper bag.

• Gloria Marlowe : What? You making pictures in Hollywood today?

  Thornton Sayre : Why not? Hollywood learned to talk after you left. There's an increasing demand for people with something to say.

• Gloria Marlowe : What were you when I found you on that California campus? A third-rate professor with a fourth-rate future.

  Thornton Sayre : Discovered by a fifth-rate actress with a mentality that defies classification.
