“Sometimes in the blankness of having given it all up, and let go of your agenda, and felt like you completely failed, and just the devastation of that… sometimes it’s in the next moment, in her case it was true, the next moment when you begin again… where the truth of what you were meant to do occurs.” ~ Mary McDonnell (Talking about Laura Roslin)

There is a moment in “The Philadelphia Story” that was, according to Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart, improvised. It’s the scene when Jimmy Stewart comes to Cary Grant’s house and he’s drunk. And Jimmy Stewart hiccups; that was thrown in. You can see that Jimmy’s amused and Cary looks down and he was amused that Jimmy was amused. They almost broke up!

Peter Bogdanovich

THE GREATEST SCENE OF ALL TIME.
