Singin in the Rain Quote

Don Lockwood : What's your lofty mission in life that lets you sneer at my humble profession?
Kathy Selden : I'm an actress...
Don Lockwood : Oh...
Kathy : ...on the stage.
Don Lockwood : Oh, on the stage, well I'd like to see you act, what are you in right now? I could brush up on my English, or bring along an interpreter, that is if they'd let in a *movie* actor.
Kathy Selden : I'm not in a play right now, but I will be. I'm going to New York...
Don Lockwood : Oh, you're going to New York and then some day we'll all hear of you, won't we? Kathy Selden as Juliet, as Lady Macbeth, as King Lear. You'll have to wear a beard for that one of course.
Kathy Selden : Laugh all you want, but at least the stage is a dignified profession.
Don Lockwood : [ scoffing ] Dignified profession.
Kathy : What do you have to be so conceited about? You're nothing but a shadow on film... just a shadow. You're not flesh and blood.
Don Lockwood : Oh, no? [ moves amorously towards her ]
Kathy : Stop!
Don Lockwood : What can I do to you, I'm only a shadow.
