A scene from The Magnificent Ambersons 1942
Eugene

Remember this. Our first machine. The original Morgan Invincible.

Isabel

I remember.

Fanny

How quaint!

Lucy

Did you ever see anything so lovely...as your mother [Isabel] - she's a darling, and Papa looks as if he were going to either explode or utter loud sounds.

Isabel

It makes us all happy Eugene. Give him your hand, Fanny. There. If brother Jack were here, Eugene would have his three oldest and best friends congratulating him all at once. We know what brother Jack thinks about it, though.

Eugene

I used to write verse about twenty years ago. Remember that?

Isabel

I remember that too.

Eugene

I'm almost thinking I could do it again. To thank you for making a factory visit into such a kind celebration.
