Saul Rubinek credited as playing...
Bo Hodges
- Bo Hodges: You realize who goes to see movies. Eighty percent of them are between the ages of 12 and 22. And you know what the kids like?
- Michael Burgess: What?
- Bo Hodges: Well, this may sound silly to you, but kids go completely ape if you do three things in a picture: defy authority, destroy property, and take people's clothes off.
- Michael Burgess: [bollixed] What does that have to do with American history?
- Bo Hodges: Oh, come on, Michael, think about it for a second. Why do kids defy authority? Because they're in rebellion. The American revolution, Michael, was the ultimate rebellion. *And* they destroyed property! So all we had to do with these lunatics' help was to get their clothes off.
- Michael Burgess: [of the screenplay's historical inaccuracies] Tarleton was a vicious ruthless beast! Why would she fall in love with this guy?
- Bo Hodges: He's number four at the box office.
- Michael Burgess: What?
- Bo Hodges: Elliott James is an international star. He comes on the screen in Paris, they wet their pants in Manila. If she *doesn't* fall in love with him, the audience will set fire to the *ushers*.
- Michael Burgess: [Meeting the director for the first time] Yeah, the script is, uh... very interesting. There are only a couple of things I have a problem with.
- Bo Hodges: [unconcerned] Oh, yeah? What are they?
- Michael Burgess: The story, and the dialogue.
