They told me, Francis Hinsley,
They told me you were hung,
With red protruding eyeballs
And black protruding tongue
—The Loved One, by Evelyn Waugh
In one scene in Lost in Translation, John and Charlotte run into an actress played by Anna Faris. She's registered under the fake name Evelyn Waugh and is the stereotypical young shallow starlet that some people assume is typical of Los Angeles. Charlotte points out that Evelyn Waugh was male, and John chastises her, "Why do you have to point out how stupid everyone is?" In almost every scene, John wants to make other people comfortable at Charlotte's expense.
