Phyl Moore: He is an actor. Unless you have reviewed him, had intercourse with him, or done both simultaneously, he won't remember you.

Gabriel Baker: Wonderful! Authenticity, optimism and a dog!
Catrin Cole: Anything else?

Tom Buckley: Since you're so keen to flex your femininity, you can tidy up!
Tom Buckley: It's never for anything. Why do you think that people like films? It's because stories are structured; have a shape, a purpose, a meaning; and when things gone bad they're still a part of a plan; there's a point to them. Unlike life.
Tom Buckley: Film, Mrs Cole. Real life with the boring bits cut out. Don't confuse facts with truth, and, for Christ's sake, don't let either of them get in the way of the story.
Roger Swain: [to Catrin] Ministry wages start at three and ten, and obviously they can't pay you as much as the chaps. So shall we say two pound a week?
Phyl Moore: Are you a cinema goer?

Catrin Cole: Yes.

[Ambrose Hilliard strays into the frame during a shoot]

Walter, The Director (Careless Talk Film): Cut! Can someone please get Mr. Hilliard out of Dunkirk?

Phyl Moore: Do you know? If one were 20 years younger and differently inclined, one would almost be tempted...
Tom Buckley: Banished from the set. What in God's name possessed you?

Catrin Cole: The actor was ruining the script.

Tom Buckley: Of course he was, he's an actor.

The theme is reminiscent of the last subway train. . Although the plot is very cliché, I like it very much. The British lines and performances are really comfortable, especially the performance of the male lead leaving the female lead in the office after being rejected. The last heroine came back to work not because of someone's inspiration, but because of the power of the movie itself
