Accident/Incident

Dumb Stuff it’s fun to find out Very few contractions--"aren't" for "are not" or "wouldn't" for "would not", for example--are used in the dialogue in this movie (the songs are a different story). While it makes the language seem stilted and excessively formal at times, this is true to the writings of Damon Runyon. He also eschewed the use of contractions, and this characteristic gave his works a very recognizable style.

Quote(s) Overheard in the green room “Did you spill something?” Tamar “It isn’t sticky, though…” a voice from the green room…

Accident/Incident

Dumb Stuff it’s fun to find out The "blank dice" gag is a reference to an old gambler's trick in which the sides of a pair of dice are altered so that only odd numbers come up on each die when you make a roll, so that both dice make an even number.

Accident/Incident

Dumb Stuff it’s fun to find out In the Middle Ages, up until the late 18th century, New Year's Day was celebrated on March 25 (Feast of the Annunciation) in most European towns.[10]In some areas of France, New Year's was a week-long holiday ending on April 1.[2][3] Many writers suggest that April Fools originated because those who celebrated on January 1 made fun of those who celebrated on other dates.[2] The use of January 1 as New Year's Day was common in France by the mid-16th century,[7] and this date was adopted officially in 1564 by the Edict of Roussillon.   “slurking” in 2014 Jesee Smart coined the phrase.  To slouch, creepily.  A cross between the ink panther and a sneaky sneaker

Quote(s) “Is that in the song?” Jesee
