Dirty Dancing (1987) as Frances "Baby" Houseman

View Quote [voiceover] That was the summer of 1963, when everybody called me Baby, and it didn't occur to me to mind. That was before President Kennedy was shot, before the Beatles, when I couldn't wait to join the Peace Corps, and I thought I'd never find a guy as great as my dad. That was the summer we went to Kellerman's.

View Quote Johnny Castle: [seeing Baby] Yo, cousin, what's she doing here?
Billy Kostecki: She came with me. She's with me.
Frances "Baby" Houseman: [to Johnny] I carried a watermelon. [to herself] I carried a watermelon.

View Quote Frances "Baby" Houseman: So you're really a Rockette? I think you're a wonderful dancer.
Penny Johnson: Yeah, well, my mother kicked me out when I was 16. I've been dancing ever since. It's the only thing I ever wanted to do anyway.
Frances "Baby" Houseman: I envy you.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) as Jeanie Bueller

View Quote Excuse me. If whoever's in the house is still in the house, I'd like you to know that I have just called the police. If you have any brains whatsoever, you'll get your ass out of my house real quick. I'd also like to add that I have my father's gun. And a scorching case of herpes.

View Quote [thinking to herself] Maybe I'm overreacting. Maybe Ferris isn't such a bad guy. After all, I got a car. He got a computer. But still, why should he get to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants? Why should everything work out for him? What makes him so god damn special? [out loud] Screw him.

View Quote [speaking to the police] There is an intruder--male, Caucasian, possibly armed, certainly weird--in my kitchen. M-my-my-my name is Bueller. Look, it's real nice that you hope my brother is feeling better, but I'm in danger, okay? I am very cute, very alone and very protective of my body. I don't want it violated or killed, all right?! I need help! Speak any English?! Dick head!

A Real Pain (2024) as Marcia

View Quote Marcia: Last year my daughter married a very rich man.
Benji: Oh, ****.
Marcia: And she's incapable of having a conversation with any depth anymore.
Benji: Well, yeah, of course. Money's like **** heroin for boring people.

View Quote Marcia: If I hear from my kids once a month, it's a shock.
Benji: Oh, Marcia. **** those guys. Man, I wouldn't miss a week.

View Quote Marcia: David, we numb ourselves to avoid thinking about our impact.
Eloge: Ignoring the proverbial slaughterhouse to enjoy the steak, as it were.
Benji: Yes, Eloge! Damn, that's a good analogy.
David: No, and I get that, I get all that, it just seems like maybe there's, like, a time and a place to grieve, and maybe it's not...
Benji: Yo, Dave.
David: What?
Benji: We're on a **** Holocaust tour. If now is not the time and place to grieve, to open up, I don't know what to tell you, man.
