The Oscar (1966)

Joseph Cotten: Kenneth Regan

Quotes 

• Kenneth Regan : These are exhibitors' reports, they speak very clearly and very loudly. They say do not send any more Frank Fane product. Send *botulism* or *typhus*, don't send Fain.

• Kenneth Regan : Once in a while when the weather is cooler, and you move a little faster, you bring me meat like this meat. It all has different names, prime rib of Gloria, shoulder cut of Johnny, filet Fane meat.

• Kenneth Regan : Why does it take me years to learn a lesson? Why do I continue to put money into actors whose films simply don't sell tickets?

• Kenneth Regan : I'm not saying Fane isn't a good actor, he's just not good box office.

• Alfred 'Kappy' Kapstetter : Some of Frankie's pictures have been your biggest grossers.

  Kenneth Regan : Certainly! Which ones? I'll tell you which ones. This one costarring John Wayne, this one with Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine, this one with Kirk Douglas.
