Ace in the Hole (1951) A: Charles Tatum (Kirk Douglas) B: Lorraine Minosa (Jan Sterling)
A: Look, Mrs. Minosa, they're having a rosary at that little church this evening. I want you to be there. B: I don't go to church. Kneeling bags my nylons. A: You're makin' enough dough to buy yourself another pair. I want you to be there because I'm sending Herbie down to get a couple of shots. Understand? B: Okay. But only because you wrote me up so pretty in today's paper. You sure can make with the words. "A figure of fair-haired loveliness... in the lengthening shadow of the cursed mountain"-- A: Unquote. [chuckles] Tomorrow this'll be yesterday's paper, and they'll wrap a fish in it. B: And another thing, mister. Don't ever slap me again.
This line comes from Audrey, the wife of Billy Wilder.
