Quotes
Paul Andros: Pay no attention. Drunks cry very easily. It's only the whiskey.
Share this
The Duchess of Brighton: what a ridiculous form of locomotion flying is. They tie you to your chair and tell you you're going, then they make scarifying noises with their engines, then they untie you and tell you're not going at all. Can you imagine the Queen Mary behaving like that?

Frances Andros: For most of those thirteen years I've loved him. But I don't know him.

Q
"The V.I.P.s"---The Screenplay---How Did it Come About?
A
Chicago Tribune, Friday, October 28, 1960:LOOKING AT HOLLYWOODby Hedda Hopper. . . . Terence Rattigan tells me he's made a deal with Sol Siegel to write an orginal, "Very Important Persons," for Metro. The story tells what happens to VIPs who have to sit around the lounge of a London airport during a 24 hour delay. he'll begin writing while homeward bound on the Queen Elizabeth. . . ._____________________________
