La Momie (1932)

Partager la citation sur facebook Frank: Stuck in the desert for two months, and it was hot! That tomb...
Helen/The Princess: What tomb?
Frank: Surely you read about the princess?
Helen/The Princess: So you did that.
Frank: Yes. The fourteen steps down and the unbroken seals were thrilling. But when we came to handle all her clothes and her jewels and her toilet things - you know they buried everything with them that they used in life? - well, when we came to unwrap the girl herself...
Helen/The Princess: How could you do that?
Frank: Had to! Science, you know. Well after we'd worked among her things, I felt as if I'd known her. But when we got the wrappings off, and I saw her face... you'll think me silly, but I sort of fell in love with her.
Helen/The Princess: Do you have to open graves to find girls to fall in love with?

Partager la citation sur facebook Frank: Oh, I know it seems absurd when we've known each other such a short time. But I'm serious.
Helen/The Princess: Don't you think I've had enough excitement for one evening, without the additional thrill of an strange man making love to me?

Assistant: Maybe he got too gay with the vestal virgins in the temple.
Dr. Muller: Possibly.

Joseph: In the interest of science. Even if I believed in the curse, I'd go on with my work for the museum. Come back with me, and we'll examine this great find together.
Dr. Muller: I cannot condone an act of sacriledge with my presence.

Ralph: [eagerly] Well, let's see what's inside!

Partager la citation sur facebook Ralph: He went for a little walk! You should have seen his face!

Partager la citation sur facebook Frank: You seem to think this thing has all the devils of hell in it. Why not burn it and be done with it?
Dr. Muller: An excellent suggestion...
