Andera Quotes in Beautiful Girls (1996)

Tommy: Can I ask you a question?

Andera: Go ahead.

Tommy: How long have you been going out with you boyfriend?

Andera: Eight months.

Tommy: And it's good?

Andera: It's very good.

Tommy: He makes you happy?

Andera: Yeah. I look for that in a man you know. The ones that make me miserable don't seem to last.

Tommy: Right.

Andera: You know there are fours words I need to hear before I go to sleep. Four little words. "Good night sweet girl." That's all it takes. I'm easy, I know, but a guy who can muster up those four words is a guy I want to stay with.

Andera: So why the sad face?

Willie Conway: Job requirement. Happy piano players work the circus.

Andera: Are you drunk?

Willie Conway: I'm not sure. But the two of you look beautiful tonight.

Willie Conway: You know how it is, the beginnings? When you first fall in love and you can't eat, you can't sleep and getting a call from her, it makes your day. It's like seeing a shooting star.

Andera: It's the best.

Willie Conway: Yeah, but, inevitably it goes away. It quiets down. So, this is my thing see, why get married now? Why not have two, three more of those beginning things before I, you know, settle into the big fade?

Andera: The big fade, that's a awful way to put it.

Willie Conway: I look at you and I think it's amazing that there's a guy out there gets to do all kinds of things with you. He gets to make you happy and spend evenings with you...

Andera: ...make me martinis, listen to Van Morrison...

Willie Conway: ...smell your skin...

Andera: ...after a day at the beach.

Willie Conway: Yeah, and read the papers...

Andera: ...on a Sunday morning...

Willie Conway: ...a rainy Sunday morning, and pepper your belly with baby kisses... Sorry.

Andera: The thing is, there's a guy out there thinks the same thing about Tracy and he's jealous of you because you get to do all that with her. Willie: Let me ask you something; can you think of anything better than making love to an attractive stranger... with just an oil light to guide your way? Can you think of anything better?

Andera: Going back to Chicago. Ice cold martini. Van Morrison.

Willie Conway: Sunday papers. Got ya.

Willie Conway: Do you want to go home with me?

Andera: No.

Willie Conway: I had to ask, because to be honest with you, I don't find you the least bit attractive. Now do you want to go home with me?

Andera: No.

Tommy: How long you been going out with your boyfriend?

Andera: About 8 months.

Tommy: And it's good?

Andera: Yes, it's very good.

Tommy: He makes you happy?

Andera: Yeah. I look for that in a man, you know? The ones who make me miserable don't seem to last.
