Movie quotes

  • (..) Only for a moment, Mrs. Hamilton. It was in the library. You had broken something. Yes, Captain Butler, I remember you. Ladies, the Confederacy asks for your jewelry on behalf of our noble cause. We aren't wearing any. We're in mourning. Wait. On behalf of Mrs. Wilkes and Mrs. Hamilton. (..)
