A scene from The First Wives Club 1996
Elise

You wouldn't understand, you're civilians!

Brenda

That's it. (infuriated) I understand. (she grabs the bottle from Elise)

Elise

Hey... give that back...

Brenda

I'm saying this to you with love, compassion and the spirit of true sisterhood: you are full of SHIT!

Elise

What?

Brenda

(pouring the alcohol down the sink)

So okay, alimony sucks! Okay, you didn't get to play a policewoman in a Wonder bra! But look at you! You grew up gorgeous, and thanks to Cher's pioneering efforts, you still haven't hit puberty! And once upon a time, you were a great actress, you've even got an Oscar to prove it! You've spent your whole life with people sucking up to you, but I'm sure Annie will agree with me when I say your perception of life is somewhat altered!
