June Mathis Quotes in Valentino (1977)

June Mathis: I want you to see him in something romantic. I want you to see him in something dramatic.

Richard Rowland: Honey, I can't offer this guy to a director like Rex Ingram.

June Mathis: He'll bite. Don't you forget. You didn't want Rex either until I sold him to you! Bert. Bert! Can you kill this and run The Married Virgin.

Richard Rowland: Married Virgin? Ha-ha. What I hear of Valentino, it's the perfect casting. Ha-ha-ha. I'm sorry, June. Ha-ha-ha.

June Mathis: Well, at least give him a screen test!

Richard Rowland: It would be a waste of good film stock. Hey, isn't this the jerk that married that starlet, what's her name, Jean Acker? And on their wedding night, she locked him out of the honeymoon suite? Heh? Ha-ha-ha. Hey, this guy doesn't want a screen test, he wants a sex test. Ha-ha-ha.

June Mathis: Oh, what about your wholesome boy next door, Wally Reegan? Can he get through a day without cocaine?

Richard Rowland: At least Wally sniffs it. Which is more than Valentino does for his wife.

June Mathis: Everyday is Halloween in Tinsel Town!

Newshound: What would you call him? In a word?

June Mathis: Ha, in a word! To me, he was, a dancer.

Newshound: That's right, he was a gigolo.
