Quotes7

  • Bruce Baxter: For God's sake, Denham, leave the native alone.
  • Jack Driscoll: I always knew you were nothing like the tough guy you play on the screen. I just never figured you for a coward.
  • Bruce Baxter: Hey, pal. Hey, wake up. Heroes don't look like me - not in the real world. In th real world they got bad teeth, a bald spot, and a beer gut. I'm just an actor with a gun who's lost his motivation. Be seeing you.
  • Bruce Baxter: What do you think, Driscoll? Dialogue's got some flow now, huh?
  • Jack Driscoll: [sarcastically] That was pure effluence.
  • Bruce Baxter: I beefed up the banter.
  • Jack Driscoll: Try to resist that impulse.
  • Bruce Baxter: It's just a bit of humor, bud. What are you a Bolshevik or something?
  • Jack Driscoll: Actors. They travel the world, all they ever see is a mirror.
  • Carl Denham: [filming the brontosaurs] Walk forward, Bruce.
  • Bruce Baxter: What?
  • Carl Denham: You're the star of this picture. Get into character and head towards the animals.
  • Bruce Baxter: What the hell kind of place is this? Are you sure about this, Denham? Don't we have a stand-in for this type of thing?
  • Carl Denham: I need you in the shot, or people will say they're fake.
  • Bruce Baxter: Oh, nobody's gonna think these are fake.
  • Carl Denham: [Before climbing to the top of the bug-pit] Just as you go down... for the third and final time... as your head disappears beneath the waves... and your lungs fill with water... do you know what happens in those last precious seconds before you drown?
  • Bruce Baxter: [pushing Denham towards the rope] Come on, buddy. Get up the rope. Come on. Get out of here. Come on.
  • Carl Denham: [continuing] Your whole life passes before your eyes. And if you've lived as a true American... you get to watch it all in color.
  • [smiles]
  • Bruce Baxter: Oh, and you will. Now why don't you climb up the rope, huh? Come on.
  • [calling out to Jack]
  • Bruce Baxter: Come on, Driscoll. Let's go!
  • [repeated line]
  • Bruce Baxter: Coming through!
  • Jack Driscoll: Where's Carl?
  • Bruce Baxter: Carl? He's up there, filming.
