My favorite hedonistic quote comes from that movie (but it's not one of Eve's). "I loaf, in a decorative and highly charming manner..."

Zachary Scott was hot and had a way with dialogue, too. Mildred Pierce is a great movie, and not merely for Joan (who is too soapy for me, until she she slaps the vicious Veda). It's the satellites that surround her, the many parts that sum up this movie. Jack Carson is always wonderful, too and tosses off a few great lines.

Eve Arden flirting with the mousy accountant, bwahahaha, rowr.
