Shirley MacLaine nel ruolo di...
Ella Hirsh
- Ella Hirsch: Wrong dresser. It's in the sock drawer.
- Maggie Feller: What?
- Ella Hirsch: My cash. That's what you were looking for, right? That's what you want.
- Maggie Feller: No! God.
- Ella Hirsch: [sighs] Oh, well. I guess after being absent for some 20-odd years or so I can't expect you to want to have a relationship with me. How much?
- Maggie Feller: How much what?
- Ella Hirsch: Money, Maggie! How much money were you hoping to get from me?
- Maggie Feller: I don't know.
- Ella Hirsch: Yes, you do.
- Maggie Feller: I want to go to New York. Maybe... act. I think I'd be good at it.
- Ella Hirsch: Hmm, clearly. How much do you need?
- Maggie Feller: Three grand.
- Ella Hirsch: *That* you would not have found in the sock drawer. How much do you have?
- [Maggie looks away; Ella nods]
- Ella Hirsch: Well, I won't give you three thousand dollars, but I'll do this: they need help over at the Assisted Living Center. You get that job, stop loafing around here like some princess, and I will match what you earn, penny for penny.
- Maggie Feller: [stares at her, shocked] You would do that? Why?
- Ella Hirsch: Because I'm your grandmother.
- Lewis Feldman: My Charlotte taught me everything - cooking, dishes how to use a cell phone - even my old laundry.
- Ella Hirsch: You must miss her.
- Lewis Feldman: Everyday. You?
- Ella Hirsch: Well I didn't know your wife, so no I can't say I do.
- [They laugh]
- Ella Hirsch: [on her daughter's death] It wasn't a car accident. I mean... it was a car, and... there was a crash, but...
- Mrs. Lefkowitz: How do you know it was on purpose?
- Ella Hirsch: She wrote a note. It came the day after the funeral.
- Mrs. Lefkowitz: What'd it say?
- Ella Hirsch: One line: "Please take care of my girls."
- Mrs. Lefkowitz: And you didn't.
- Ella Hirsch: [starts to cry] Mm-mmm.
- Mrs. Lefkowitz: You didn't because you couldn't. Now you can, so you will. Ella, bubbeleh, you did the best you could in a very bad situation. You got nothing to feel guilty about. And you tell that to Miss Hotsy-Totsy Pants.
