The Jazz Singer (1980)

James Booth: Paul Rossini

Quotes 

• Jess Robin : [watching as Keith Lennox does a rock version of "Love on the Rocks"]  He's just kidding around, right?

  Molly Bell : No, they're doing it for real.

  Jess Robin : This song is supposed to be a ballad.

  Paul Rossini : That's his style, mister. Made him a millionaire.

  Jess Robin : Yeah, but the thing is it's too fast. You can't hear the words.

  Paul Rossini : Yeah, that's why we brought you down here. He changed the tempo. You got to change the lyrics.

  Keith Lennox : [shouts]  Hold it!

  [whistles, then screaming at the top of his lungs] 

  Keith Lennox : HOLD IT!

  [the music stops and the Four Brothers yank their headsets off in agony] 

  Keith Lennox : What are you playing? I told you three... how many times... Three times I've told you, it's too slow! Don't you understand, it's too slow. I want it faster, all right? Faster. Da da da da, all right? Boom boom boom boom!

  Paul Rossini : We can hear the "boom boom" in here, darling. It really sounds wonderful...

  Keith Lennox : [interrupts him]  I don't give a monkey's what you can hear, all right?

  Paul Rossini : But we're going to...

  Keith Lennox : [motioning with his hand]  Shut it! Just shut it, all right?
