Movie quotes

  • (..) The part I got was basically not getting in. I don't even know how I got cast in my part. Me neither. I was the one who had a dress and prepared a song. I know. -Now you're going to be romantic with Danny on stage. It's probably my only shot at that, you know? Do you have a pen? -Yeah. Mom? (..)
