Tina Turner: [Walks up to the hotel counter bruised and bloodied] I need to speak with your manager.
Hotel Clerk: Yes ma'am, right away. George!
Tina Turner: [George turns around] I'm... I'm Tina Turner. My husband and I just had a fight. I'm suppose to open at the Academy tonight. I have 36 cents and a Mobil card, but if you would give me a room, I SWEAR I will pay you back.

Laurence Fishburne was amazing in his role, he was very scary, and it just made you hate Ike for being so evil. Angela Bassett's performance was outstandingly amazing though - I've never seen so much good acting out of someone in a movie.
All in all, I loved the movie, and any awards for it were well rewarded.
