Mickey Moran: [at rehearsal] Ah, terrible. Terrible! Don, terrible!
Rosalie Essex: I didn't think so.
Mickey Moran: No, but, it's the way you read the lines. I mean, there's no feeling to it or anything! Look, maybe we'd better try it here on the couch. Don, come over here and sit beside her. I want a more *virile* approach, like Clark Gable would do it. Now, come on, do it once for me, will you?
Don Brice: Your Majesty, I have a feeling I'm going to find Egypt fascinating.
Mickey Moran: No, no, that's still not it, Don. Let me show you, will you? Just stand up there for a minute. Look.
[with a Clark Gable accent]
Mickey Moran: Now, see here, Cleo. You've stalled me for the last time. You can't push Mark Antony around like that and get away with it, see. Last month, I took over the south side. Now, I'm taking over the palace. And what's more, I'm taking over you, see? Get your things packed. We're taking a honeymoon on the Nile. I've got a barge waiting with the motor running.
[stops the Gable accent]
Mickey Moran: Now, you see, Don? That's more the way Gable would do it.
Don Brice: Well, Gable and I work differently.
Mickey Moran: Yeah, that's why he works more often
