Dated Article...but some light entertainment

"19. Walter Mattheu to Barbra Streisand during an on set argument while making HELLO DOLLY!: “I have more talent in my farts than you have in your whole body.”

[StAnDeliver]

"10. Christopher Plummer on Julie Andrews: “Working with her is like being hit over the head with a big Valentine’s Day card, every day."

This one always bummed me out bc I enjoy the movie bc of their work together; he went on to call her "treacly" and a bit of a perfectionist. It's mild compared to other quotes, but takes some varnish off their scenes together.

#17. I one of my favorites “He could drive a Saint to Hell in a Dogsled!”. I have known people like that, Oh yes.

[headstamp 2]

“17. Trevor Howard on Marlon Brando: “Unprofessional and absolutely ridiculous. He could drive a saint to hell in a dogsled.”

Nothing like a British thespian. LOL

I met Richard Kiel (Jaws in Moonraker) a few years ago. I asked him how people in Hollywood got along. He named some names of other actors that he strongly disliked, so they are not all one big happy family.

“12. Ernest Borgnine on Mickey Rooney: “I`ve got the Oscar, he`s got a therapist. Checkmate!” “

My favorite.

I doubt a lot of these are authentic, but I do know that #22 is real, with Oliver Reed dissing Jack Nickolson. Oliver Reed was one of those rare nutcase drunks who had real talent. Reed was at one time the highest paid actor in Britain, but no one remembers him much nowadays. A real alpha male who could drink you under the table and then beat the whole bar at arm wrestling.

Drinking finally killed him.

Interesting to hear Harris insult Michael Caine, as I doubt Harris was sober for long enough at any point of his life to form an impression. I met Caine in Austin years ago when they were filming Miss Congeniality and found him to be a gentleman. One of my favorite actors of all time too.

I always thought all these people got along! I guess they were just acting.

[Veto!]

Wonderful, keepable, reusable b@tchy quotes. I particularly like 21:

21. John Cassavetes on Ricardo Montalban: “Ricardo Montalban is to improvised acting what Mount Rushmore is to animation.”

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Mel Brooks about Sinatra,

Hollyweird....
Directors, they’re the ones who should be talking.

[mykroar]

28. John Gielgud on Ingrid Bergman: “Ingrid Bergman speaks five languages and can’t act in any of them.”

ROFL

[TBP]

Groucho Marx to brother Chico:

“I have a good mind to join a club and beat you over the head with it.”

About Chico:

“There were three things my brother was always on — a phone, a horse, or a broad.”

[Charles Henrickson]

21. John Cassavetes on Ricardo Montalban: “Ricardo Montalban is to improvised acting what Mount Rushmore is to animation.”

I LOL'ed on that one.

I agree with Cary Grant (#8) on James Dean. He has to be the most over rated actor of all time.

[vladimir998]

“...and that God-awful James Dean.”

I always thought he was vastly overrated. That’s heresy among libs, however.

[xp38]

The first one disappoints me but the rest are liberals dissing each other and confirming the idea that show business is like high school with money.
