Quotes 

• Howard Biggers : Well, he hasn't treated you much better. How about that phony seven-year contract, and that picture-part you had to turn down last month?

  Laura Lockridge : Emmy, is that true?

  Emmy Reinhart : It was a dreadful part, with no lines. Some deaf and dumb farm girl who gets forcibly compromised. Well, they gave it to Jane Wyman. I didn't want to play it anyway.

• Ellery Queen : You make a terrific Dormouse, Mrs. Lockridge.

  Laura Lockridge : Thank you. I don't make a bad doormat, either, Mr. Queen.
