Quotes
-
Simon Gordon : [Seeing Fred mixing himself a drink] Starting a little early aren't you, Fred?
Uncle Fred : I'm a playboy. I'm a wastrel. Admit it, dear brother Simon. But this is a wedding, not a board meeting. Why don't you take your hair down?

Johnny Midnight : Fred, you're a social liability. You're the laziest man I know and you're totally irresponsible. But I can't believe you'd knife a woman to death.
Uncle Fred : I don't believe you, Johnny. Why this sudden switch back to my side?
Johnny Midnight : Well, you handle a knife like a canoe paddle. Whoever killed Lila used the knife expertly.
Uncle Fred : Well, is that the kind of evidence you're gonna hand Chief Talman, Johnny? He'll laugh in your face.
Johnny Midnight : You're wrong two ways. He won't be laughing. And it won't be my face.
