Movie quotes

  • (..) - where your cousin Frank was tortured. I have seen it on screen. It is like that one. But on the other side of the road. It has an ocean view. There is something you do not understand. This ticket is magic. Any second we will drive right into a theatre. Maybe I need to warm it up. (..)
