The Mirror Crack'd Quotes

  • Lola Brewster: I could eat a can of Kodak and puke a better movie.

  • Vicar: Oh, Mr. Rudd. I understand that you are a fillum producer.

    Jason Rudd: Oh, no, sir. A director.

    Vicar: Is there any difference?

    Jason Rudd: Yes, sir. The, uh, producer supplies all the money; the director spends it. Then the producer yells that the director is spending too much money; the director doesn't pay any attention, and goes right on spending. The director gets all the credit; the producer gets an ulcer. You see, it's all very simple; excuse me.

  • Lola Brewster: You seem lovely, as always. Of course, there are fewer lights on than usual. In fact, any fewer, and I'd need a seeing-eye dog.

    Marina Rudd: What are you doing here so early, dear? I thought the plastic surgery seminar was in Switzerland.

    Marina Rudd: Oh, I do know the saying. But what does it have to do with you?

    Lola Brewster: Cute angel. So do tell. How does it feel to be back, after being away SO LONG?

  • Lola Brewster: Chin up, darling... both of them.
