...Egypt's ex-King Farouk, interviewed by Milan's weekly Tempo, was still looking like the fat of the land, but disclosed that he no longer lives off it. Moaned he: "I lived in wonderful palaces with a thousand-and-one-night atmosphere. But I was never personally rich . . . The revolutionists have seized my private property ...

...bachelor on your hands. I ain't never gonna get married." But his mother (Esther Minciotti) can't let well enough alone, and finally Marty bursts out bitterly, "Whatever it is that women like, I ain't got it . . . I'm a fat little man, a fat ugly man . . . All that ever happened to me . . . was girls made me feel like I was a bug . . . I got feelings . . . I had enough pain. No thanks, Ma . . . You know what I'm gonna get for my trouble? . . . A big night of heartache...
