Movie quotes

  • (..) We'll take a new image. Didn't you stand up and say it to the director's face? There was no dialogue. Last time I told him not to transport a pregnant antelope. As I pulled on the heel, he stuffed her in a crate, the birth started, and she died with her baby. He also wanted to sell Tanzinho. (..)
