Raquel Welch as Queenie

David Dukes as James Morrison

• (David Dukes) "Christ, what a crew. Take a look at Madeleine True. People flocked to the movies she made, loving the cutie-pie parts she played. She was every man's sweetheart, every woman's guide. Venus -- and Adonis, which she never tried to hide. Men dreamed of a real-life wife like this adorable thespian."
• (David Dukes) "Poor fools they."
• (David Dukes) "The typical pair of minor movie producers stood engrossed, bewailing high production cost, each of which had suffered most. In twenty minutes each had lost the sum of 60 million dollars. After which they stood, panting, tragic-eyed, mopping at sadly wilted collars."
• (David Dukes) "Then Jackie, perfect of form and face. In his veins flowed the blood of more than one race. He left a subtle trail of scent, floating behind him as he went. An Apache dancer, with a special act, New York or Paris, his house was packed. He'd brought marijuana for all to puff, and later he'd bring out the stronger stuff. Cocaine, morphine, Turkish hash -- all the makings of a proper bash."

The wheel was spinning, the course was charted. Comedy was beginning, and tradgedy had started."

• (David Dukes) "Eddie Mangione, here with Grace. A muscular stuntman, with a brutish face. Good-natured, if sober, and gentle enough. But watch if you crossed him, he could get rough."
• (David Dukes) "Behold the Brother's D'Armano, otherwise known as Oscar and Phil. They sang, they played the piano, they lisped, their voices were shrill. They reeked of powder, rouge, pomade, piano wasn't all they played. They gave new meaning to the concept of, the old-fashioned virtue of brotherly love."

• (David Dukes) "They were there for kicks, or bucks, or laughter -- but Queenie, what was Queenie after?"
