Movie quotes

  • (..) I'm just trying to sell the furniture. It's a beautiful bed, if you can get the bugs out of it. (bomb dropping) Interested in old prints at all? The frame's fixed to the wall but I could unscrew it. How did this escape? I know what it is. It's the museum in the street outside the Palace of Justice. (..)
