Roman Holiday Quote

Joe Bradley : How much would a real interview with this dame be worth?
Mr. Hennessey : Are you referring to Her Highness?
Joe Bradley : I'm not referring to Annie Oakley, Dorothy Lamour, or Madame... How much?
Mr. Hennessey : What do you care? You've got about as much chance...
Joe Bradley : I know, but if I did? How much would it be worth?
Mr. Hennessey : Oh, just a plain talk on world issues, it would probably be worth two hundred and fifty. Her views on clothes, of course, would be worth a lot more, maybe a thousand... dollars.
Joe Bradley : I'm talking about her views on everything!... The private and secret longings of a Princess. Her innermost thoughts as revealed to your own correspondent in a private, personal, exclusive interview. [ His boss' mouth drops, awe-struck by the thought ]
Joe Bradley : Can't use it, huh? I didn't think you'd like it.
Mr. Hennessey : Come here! Love angle too, I suppose.
Joe Bradley : Practically all love angle.
Mr. Hennessey : With pictures.
Joe Bradley : Could be. How much?
Mr. Hennessey : That particular story will be worth five grand to any news service...
Joe Bradley : ...You said five grand? I want you to shake on that.
