Rollie Totheroh Quotes in Chaplin (1992)

[Sennett is explaining the film industry to Chaplin as Rollie edits a film]

Mack Sennett: Now I know this is all new to ya, but remember something, we're all new. This is not an ancient industry. This whole place here is built around speed. Start the story, start the chase. I get bored easy.

Rollie Totheroh: How much you reckon Mack? Couple yards of Mabel?

Mack Sennett: Hmm, yeah. Nah, make it three. But don't go thinking we sacrifice quality. I never make more than two motion pictures a week, but I'll spend up to a thousand dollars on each of 'em if I have to.

Mack Sennett: Jesus!

Rollie Totheroh: You told him to change, right?

Mack Sennett: What is he putting on? A suit of armor?
