Favorite Lines

This movie has some great lines. Here are a few that I can think of right off the top of my head. Part of the reason why I like these lines is the way Ruth Roman says them. She delivers each line with gusto in that wonderfully husky, gravelly voice of hers!

"That's just so much horsesh*t!"

"We came home just in time not to pay her extra!"

"She thinks of everything!"

"Mrs. Gentry, just what do you think you're doing?"

Whada' you mean nothing happened?! I come home and you got your damn tit in his mouth!!"

"You BITCH!"

Feel free to make corrections or add your own favorite line.

I like Ma's misplaced clemency as bourne out by her line (when she catches sis zapping Baby with a cattle prod) 'Hey, he's your brother, not an animal! Lock him in the closet instead ...'

The tatas in the mouth comment is one of my favorites too.

To further the cattle prod scene, I also loves when sexy blond sister says...

"Baby doesn't walk, baby doesn't talk, baby doesn't stand"

It goes something like that.

The ultimate line is surely...

"Wheres my best worker..?"

So many deliriously campy lines, so little time....

"I ate too many eggrolls!"

"You're always making a little piglet out of yourself!"

"I'm a scorpio, we're very cautious!"

"You know, Scorpios really aren't cautious. Just dangerous!"

"When you're a winner Alba, the possibility of losing doesn't even exist!"

"What the hell d'you think YOU'RE doing?!"

"You're abusing a mental-case and it's a criminal offence!"

"Once in a while I do a tv commercial!"

"That tricky bitch!"

"Do you like physical exercise?"

"I just wanted to face you before telling you you're sick, Mrs Wadsworth!"

"Fine, you said it. Now get the hell off of my property!"

"Mama. When you set out to do something you sure don't screw around!"

"Why don't you just hang loose and have a good time?"

"Why don't you and mama get loaded together?"

Such timeless lines...... hours of pleasure!

"My great big baby husband!"

"We should have let them take him." "The circus?!"

I love that movie.

I think it's the blonde sister at the party who says she is hungry and is then cornered by the middle aged guy who attempts to grope her, to which she pushes him away and replys,
"I said I was hungry.Not starving".
Classic.

Anything said by Ruth Roman is pure camp in this movie. She made Joan Crawford look like Shirley Temple. The older she got the more she looked like a linebacker in drag, but I love that about her, she should have been put in more of these roles.

"Nothing happened? With your damn tit in his mouth, and you call that nothing? Lying bitch!"

One of the best quotes I've ever heard.

Come, fly the teeth of the wind. Share my wings.

i can't stop laughing at this twisted trainwreck of a movie... whoever wrote and produced this was not well.

Different (but similar) movie: Orphanage Superintendent Mrs. Deere (Gloria Grahame) to her handyman (Len Lesser) when she's visited by suspicious social worker Milton Selzer: Lesser: ''He want's in the freezer''. Grahame: ''Then that's where wee'l put him''. ''Blood And Lace'' (1971)''.
