Minnie: “You know, I think that movies are a conspiracy… because they set you up… They set you up from the time you’re a little kid. They set you up to believe in everything… in ideals and strengh and good guys and romance – and, of course, love… So… you go out, you start looking. Doesn’t happen, you keep looking. You get a job… and you spend a lot of time fixing up things – your apartment and jazz. And you learn how to be feminine – you know, quotes: “feminine”? You learn how to cook… But there’s no Charles Boyer in my life… I never even met a Charles Boyer. I never met Clark Gable. I never met Humphrey Bogart… I mean, they don’t exist – that’s the truth. But the movies set you up and no matter how bright you are, you believe it.”
