Adam's Rib
1949
Kip Lurie: Lawyers should never marry other lawyers. This is called in-breeding; from this comes idiot children... and other lawyers.
Adam Bonner: First of all, I should like to say that I think the arguments advanced by the counsel for the defense were sound... MERE sound!
Amanda Bonner: Let's all be manly!
Amanda Bonner: What I said was true, there's no difference between the sexes. Men, women, the same. Adam Bonner: They are? Amanda Bonner: Well, maybe there is a difference, but it's a little difference. Adam Bonner: Well, you know as the French say... Amanda Bonner: What do they say? Adam Bonner: Vive la difference! Amanda Bonner: Which means? Adam Bonner: Which means hurrah for that little difference.
Adam Bonner: What are ya? Sore about a little slap? Amanda Bonner: No. Adam Bonner: Well, what then? Amanda Bonner: (outraged) You meant that, didn't you? You really meant that. Adam Bonner: Why, no, I... Amanda Bonner: Yes, you did. I can tell. I know your type. I know a slap from a slug. Adam Bonner: Well, OK, OK. Amanda Bonner: I'm not so sure it is. I'm not so sure I care to expose myself to typical instinctive masculine brutality. Adam Bonner: Oh come now. Amanda Bonner: And it felt not only as though you meant it, but as though you felt you had a right to. I can tell. Adam Bonner: What've you got back there? Radar equipment?
Adam Bonner: No matter what you think you think, you think the same as I think.
Kip Lurie: Amanda, my love, why do you stay married to a legal beagle with ten thumbs?
Kip Lurie: Amanda, I'm on your side, I guess you know that. You've got me so convinced, I may go out and become a woman. Adam Bonner: And he wouldn't have far to go!
Amanda Bonner: And after you shot your husband... how did you feel? Doris Attinger: Hungry!
Beryl Caighn: And then I heard a noise. Adam Bonner: What kind of noise? Beryl Caighn: Like a sound.
