Movie quotes

  • (..) There's room on my horse for two. Would you like to be wetted down now? - That's what I'd say. Quick, get the hose. - Get the hose out. It was fun. It was relaxed. It was collaborative. It's a long shoot but it was enjoyable. Every single day was kind of fun. You can go just as fast with two. (..)
