Curry, however, did allow Gerald B. Mullin, Dayan's senior attorney, to introduce as evidence letters among top McDonald's executives referring to Dayan as a "son of a bitch" who should be removed "at all costs" from "the McDonald's system." Mullin used that correspondence to allege that McDonald's is trying to screw Dayan out of a hamburger empire which could include 166 McDonald's worth billions of dollars...
...plunging into the chilly water. Our junior senator is the man standing on the shore yelling, "Turn back." It's the fear of fast water; the fear that should the center not hold mere anarchy would be loosed upon the world, and that mere anarchy would be a bitch.

Furious that her husband has sunk all his assets, (half hers by California law) into a piece of celluloid, she chases him through the house. "You son of a bitch," she cries. Farmer stops, and says, "Variety headline: 'Sally Miles Swears!' Another $10 million at the box office." Edwards excels at manic scenes like these. Farmer's irrationality, portrayed to perfection by Mulligan, overcome the hopelessly commonplace performances of Larry Hagman, as one of the producers' yes men, and William Holden...
