line o rama


ok, i just got Across the Universe on dvd and noticed in the preview for blonde ambition starring jessica simpson that she is doing the scene from big business where country sadie first gets pushed aside and misses a cab then rushes a guy getting into another cab, knocks him down and rides away. this led me to the message board to see if anyone else had noticed and i cant believe the total lack of a "favorite quotes" thread for this movie. as someone who knows big business pretty much word for word, i'll only post a few. please post your favorites as well!
*roone to chuck; like your kimona , d'you get that in Nam?
*country sadie, after finding out she is going to new york city with rose; oh, i gotta get me some of those press on nails! do those things really stay on? i mean, i dont want em flippin off in any of those FANCY NIGHTCLUBS!
*country sadie, investigating the plaza suite and finding a soap in the shape of a swan; COULD YOU DIE? (also her saying that the sink in their living area is "what the french call a bidet kills me)
city sadie, to a twitterpated city rose before the board meeting; NOW EAT THE DAMN MUFFIN AND FOR GOD'S SAKE, try to show some poise(scrunch, scrunch).

go ahead and let out your best sadie, rose, grahm, chuck, roone or iona!

My favorite, and it cracks me up every time, and I quote it whenever anyone says the words...
City Sadie to Country Rose at breakfast before they know of each other...in Country Rose's accent... "The meetin?"

I like it when Lily Tomlin misses the chauffeur ridden car outside the hotel as it speeds off without her. The tramp tells her "That happened to me once."
