Quote From Today... Devil and the Deep (1932)

   "I know sir, it was only about dinner last night!"

With Tallulah Bankhead.


Devil and the Deep was Cary Grant's 4th full length feature film.



Cmdr. Charles Sturm: [opening lines] You dropped this.

[hands Jaeckel a letter]

Lt. Jaeckel: [embarrassed] Oh. Thank you sir.

Cmdr. Charles Sturm: From my wife.

Lt. Jaeckel: Yes, sir.

Cmdr. Charles Sturm: I recognised the handwriting.

Lt. Jaeckel: Yes, it's just a note, telling me that...

Cmdr. Charles Sturm: That's alright, my boy - you don't have to explain. I'm a husband, not a jailer.

Lt. Jaeckel: I know sir, it was only about dinner last night.

Cmdr. Charles Sturm: My friend, this isn't the Middle Ages. A woman can write letters to whom she pleases, can't she?
