A scene from The Philadelphia Story 1940
Mike

[drunk]

Are you still in love with her?...Liz thinks you are...But of course, women like to romanticize [hiccup] about things...I don't know, I-I can't understand how you can have been married to her and still know so little about her?...You know, Tracy's no ordinary woman. And you said some things to her this afternoon I resented.

Dexter

Well, I apologize Mr. Connor.

Mike

That's quite all right. Quite all right. But when a girl is like Tracy, she's one in a million. She's, she's sort of like a, she's sort of like a...

Dexter

A goddess?

Mike

No, no, no. No, you said that word this afternoon. No. No, she's, she's sort of like a queen. A radiant glorious queen. And you can't treat her like other women.

Dexter

No, I suppose not. But then I imagine Kittredge appreciates all that.

Mike

Kittredge! Kittredge appreciates Kittredge. Ah, that fake man of the people. He isn't even smart.
