[pause]
Susy Hendrix: No, Susy, I'm not here.
Roat: Did you know they wanted to kill me? I did. I knew even before they did. They were awful amateurs, and that's why you saw through them.
Susy Hendrix: I saw through you too.
Roat: No, not all the way, Suzy. Even now, not all the way. The lovely thing was the way I let them set it all up.

Lisa: They should make heroin look like something else. Candy bars maybe.

The one remaining light in the theatres would be switched off as the last light source in the film went out.
Despite getting an Oscar nomination for this movie, Hepburn would not make another film until Robin and Marian.
