Movie quotes

  • (..) Why do you have this big tufty on your head? My big tufty on my head is because I'm younger. This is the younger Dwalin. So Dwalin wasn't bald when he was younger. He lost his hair through stress. I was interviewed by my own daughter. She asked some pretty good questions, if I remember rightly. (..)
