Quotes25

  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: [singing] Out where they say, "Let us be gay," I'm going Hollywood. I'll ballyhoo greetings to you, I'm going Hollywood. Hey, while you sleepyheads are in that hay, I'll be dancing - I'm gonna be dancing with a sun-kissed baby. And I'm on my way - here's my beret, I'm going Hollywood!
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: [singing] There may be blondes and brunettes that are hard to resist, You surpass them like a queen, You got those lips that were meant to be kissed, And you're over sweet sixteen, Oh, beautiful girl, you're a gorgeous creature, Beautiful girl, let me call the preacher, If I had you, you'd be my dreams come true, I forgot the words, So that will have to do, Beautiful girl.
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams, Sylvia Bruce: [singing] We'll make hay while the sun shines, We'll make love when it rains...
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: Hey, come out of the clouds. Come down to earth. You're in Hollywood. Hollywood, California.
  • Sylvia Bruce: Yes, I know. This is Hollywood, isn't it. Everything a motion picture set. It's all artificial. The costumes, the scenery, the people.
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: You're telling me.
  • Sylvia Bruce: Yes, I'm telling you. You're just part of this. You belong here. Possibly you're just as fake as the scenery.
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: Oh, you think so, huh?
  • Sylvia Bruce: You're really no more sincere than those songs of yours about love and the moonlight or whatever else it is your crooning about. You're just a voice that croons about something that once was real. You're not real, Bill Williams. You're just a fake!
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: [singing] For you were born to be kissed, I can't resist, You are temptation and I am yours, Here is my heart, Take it and say we'll never part, I'm just a slave, only a slave, To you, temptation.
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: How's my leadin' lady?
  • Lili Yvonne: Oh, Billy, I feel terrible. I wish I had never left Paris. What did we drink last night?
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: Oh, you mean that green stuff. What do you call it? Oh, absinthe. Oh, but, I liked it. Yes sir, I like everything French!
  • Sylvia Bruce: Are you going somewhere?
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: Yes. I'm going to Hollywood.
  • Sylvia Bruce: Oh, oh, that's too bad. But, why are you going?
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: I'm going out there to make a movie. Don't you read the papers?
  • Sylvia Bruce: No. And I don't go to movies very often either.
  • Sylvia Bruce: I just came up here to thank you.
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: Thank me? For what?
  • Sylvia Bruce: For what you did for me last night.

  • Sylvia Bruce: I was at Miss Briarcroft's School.
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: Did I go to a school last night?
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: You know what that goofy press agent of mine did? He went out and cooked up a big send off for me. You know, me no like big send offs. Me very smart boy! Me sneak on train.
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: You're the Director of the picture! You tell 'em about it. Tell 'em it's gigantic, terrific, stupendous! Tell 'em it's barely colossal.
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: I'll see you down there. Toodle-oo, cheerio, and pip pip.

  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: What are *we* going to do about it?
  • Sylvia Bruce: Yes, it's an awful problem, isn't it?
  • Sylvia Bruce: Remember, Monsieur Williams, it's 'bon jour' and not 'bon jouwa.' And the next thing to remember is 'au revoir.'
  • Bill 'Billy' Williams: What does that mean?
  • Sylvia Bruce: It means: till we met again. Au revoir.
