Daily Dialgoue — July 16, 2010

“It’s my wedding present to him, but the way he wears it, you’d think it was a noose around his neck.”

 — Cora Smith (Lana Turner), The Postman Always Rings Twice (1946), screenplay by Harry Ruskin and Niven Busch, based on a novel by James M. Cain

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week is femme fatales.

Trivia: As a contrast to the fact she’s playing an inherently evil character, Lana Turner wears white throughout the film.
