Postcards from the Edge (1990)

Oliver Platt: Neil Bleene

Quotes 

• Neil Bleene : We're talking about two minutes of film - two minutes of screen time out of ninety.

  Suzanne Vale : Is it correctable?

  Neil Bleene : Oh, come on. It's not as though you farted during all your dialogue; we sat there in rushes saying 'what's all that noise all over her lines?'

  Suzanne Vale : I'm so relieved. That analogy has bathed me in relief.

• Neil Bleene : I've been in the theatre. I'm actually a theatre director. Sometimes certain line-readings apply. Like in comedy, it is a rule. Inflections go up at the end.

  Suzanne Vale : That's a comedy RULE?

  Neil Bleene : Well, not so much rule as guideline.
