She’s so gay tonight
She’s like spring tonight
She’s a rollicking, frollicking thing tonight
So disarming, soft and charming
She is not thinking of me
No, she’s not thinking of me
(Lerner and Lowe, Waltz at Maxim’s)



CLO-CLO. What did they say before the bad card came up?
MARIA. You’ll meet a rich man and he will give you money.
CLO-CLO (disdainfully). You and your cards. Meet a richman! I look for them with money. What rich man hasn’t money. And for what was I born if it wasn’t for money? You’re not telling me anything.
Screen Play by Ardel Wray
from the novel Black Alibi by Cornell Woolrich
