礼帽 (1935)

Dale Tremont:

What is this strange power you have over horses?

Jerry Travers:

[thinks] Horsepower?

Dale Tremont:

How could I have ever fallen in love with a man like you!

[Dale slaps Jerry, then storms off]

Jerry Travers:

She loves me.

Jerry Travers:

I think I feel an attack coming on. There's only one thing that can stop me.

Dale Tremont:

Why, you must tell me what it is!

Jerry Travers:

My nurses always put their arms around me.

Dale Tremont:

I dropped up from the room below where I've been trying to get some sleep!

Jerry Travers:

Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't realize I was disturbing you. You see, every once in a while I suddenly find myself... dancing.

Dale Tremont:

Oh, I suppose it's some kind of an affliction.

Horace Hardwick:

You know how wives are.

Jerry Travers:

No I don't. How are they?

[Talking about the horse]

Dale Treemont:

Who was his dam?

Jerry Travers:

What?

Dale Treemont:

I said, who was his dam?

Jerry Travers:

I don't know miss, he didn't give a damn.

Jerry Travers:

All is fair in love and war, and this is revolution!

Jerry Travers:

In dealing with a girl or horse, one just lets nature take its course.

[He is reading a telegram]

Alberto Beddini:

'Come ahead. stop. Stop being a sap. stop. You can even bring Alberto. stop. My husband is stopping at your hotel. stop. when do you start. stop.' I cannot understand who wrote this.

Dale Tremont:

Sounds like Gertrude Stein.

Dale Tremont:

Madge, have you any objections if I scare your husband so that he'll never look at another woman?

Madge Hardwick:

Dale, no husband is ever too scared to look.

Horace Hardwick:

You mean to sit there and tell me that that girl slapped your face in front of all those people for nothing?

Jerry Travers:

Well, what would you have done? Sold tickets?

Madge Hardwick:

65

My dear, when you're as old as I am, you take your men as you find them - if you can find them.

Bates:

We are Bates.

Alberto Beddini:

Never again will I allow WOMEN to wear my dresses!

Dale Tremont:

I hate men! I hate you! I hate all men!

Alberto Beddini:

I promised my dresses that I would take them to Venice and that you would be in them!

Jerry Travers:

[realising why Dale has been behaving so peculiarly] She's been mistaking me for you this whole time.

Madge Hardwick:

Well, no wonder she said he was interesting.

Horace Hardwick:

Yes, no wonder... I resent that!

Jerry Travers:

Are you afraid of thunder?

Dale Tremont:

Oh, no. It's just the noise.

Jerry Travers:

You know what thunder is, don't you?

Dale Tremont:

Of course. It's something about the air.

Jerry Travers:

No, no. When a clumsy cloud from here meets a fluffy little cloud from there, he billows towards her. She scurries away and he scuds right up to her. She cries a little and there you have you showers. He comforts her. They spark. That's the lightning. They kiss. Thunder.
