Quotes 

• [after watching a sound effects recording session for a cartoon train] 

  Doris : How did you like it?

  Robert Benchley : Oh, fine, fine. Only after all, wouldn't it be a lot easier just to wreck a real train?

• Doris : [Holding up a cel of Bambi in front of her]  Like it?

  Robert Benchley : I'd be all right if you could get that reindeer out of the way.

  Doris : I'll see if I can scare up the background that goes with it.

  Robert Benchley : Nothing wrong with the one I just saw.

  Doris : [a man hands her a painting]  Thanks. This is his background. He fits right on top of it, like this. There.

  Robert Benchley : And very cunning, too. I'd like to take him home with me.

  [Bambi suddenly comes to life and hides behind a rock in the background] 

  Robert Benchley : What do you know? He took me seriously.
