“Lady Sylvia McCordle:Mr Weissman -- Tell us about the film you're going to make.
Morris Weissman:Oh, sure. It's called "Charlie Chan In London". It's a detective story.
Mabel Nesbitt:Set in London?
Morris Weissman:Well, not really. Most of it takes place at a shooting party in a country house. Sort of like this one, actually. Murder in the middle of the night, a lot of guests for the weekend, everyone's a suspect. You know, that sort of thing.
Constance:How horrid. And who turns out to have done it?
Morris Weissman:Oh, I couldn't tell you that. It would spoil it for you.
Constance:Oh, but none of us will see it.”

“Hollywood Rule:
RULE #1: You only need a license to do three things in the film business: blow up a building, wash someone’s hair, or drive a truck. You need no license, certification, documentation, or, for that matter, any filmmaking experience to be a writer, producer, director, actor, or even a studio executive. All you need is money.”

“Recognizing that the movie business was the entertainment business that wasn’t moving fast enough to fill my creative and financial coffers was an impetus to grow, and that has taken me and so many of my colleagues into a larger world.”

“Call me old-fashioned, but The Shape of Water is a tour de force. Maddening. Heartfelt. Sick. Nostalgic. An Ode to Todd McCarthy, Arnold Glassman, and Stuart Samuels’ documentary film, Visions of Light. By all means, take a bow.”
