- Quotes
Victor: [watching Felicie dance around the Irish bar] Wow!
[Love-struck, he tosses her a rose. Felicie reaches up to catch it, but loses her balance and falls onto a table. Merante, who was seated nearby, stands up and removes his hat. Felicie gasps in fear]
Mérante: [sternly] I hope that tomorrow you act with a little more dignity.
[starts to walk out]
Mérante: Anyway, tonight was...
[puts his hat back on and smiles]
Mérante: A GOOD performance.
Felicie: [flattered] Thank you, sir.

I do kinda wish the subplot of victor could have tied in more with the main focus of Felicie but it is what it is, I ain't complaining.
Finally, It was hilarious and very charming too. Perfect for families. Enjoy the movie!
