The Oscar (1966)

Jill St. John: Laurel Scott

Quotes 

• Laurel Scott : Ever since we hit this town you've been living off me. If you think I'm gonna work my tail off so you can run around with the Village chicks... oh, stop spreading the pollen around, Frankie, or else!

  Frankie Fane : Or else what? You'll chop my allowance? You'll turn me out of your warm bed? You're *nothin'*, that's what! So can that "or else" crap!

• Laurel Scott : [sighs]  Things haven't been going so good for us the past couple of months, have they?

  Frankie Fane : What you mean is, I'm not workin', so I'm a creep!

  Laurel Scott : You could get a job, Frankie. It wouldn't kill you.

  Frankie Fane : [grabs Laurel]  Tell me all about it. You twitch your hips and you think that's ten years on the road guy. Well, nobody ever gave me a dime that I didn't have to sweat for! So knock off with this lazy slob routine!

  Laurel Scott : You hurt me, Frankie!

  Frankie Fane : Send me a bill.

• Laurel Scott : I've gotta go to work. But when I come back you and me are gonna have a talk!

  Frankie Fane : Sure, if you like talking to yourself!

• Laurel Scott : This is one stupid, round-heeled broad who is finished! Done, d-o-n-e, done! Get the hell out of here, Frankie, right now. Out! You heard me, freeloader. And don't let the door hit you in the backside. Out! Out!

• Laurel Scott : All these years knocking around looking for a way out, not even wanting very much of anything. Just a little rest, some peace and quiet. I just wanted to be happy. I see other people, they get happy. I want mine. Is that asking a lot?

• Laurel Scott : To hell with him! What does he think I am? Dirt? Every morning I get the feeling he was gonna leave two dollars on the dresser for me. I am no slut, and nobody, nobody is gonna treat me like one!
