Spills for Thrills (1940)

Quotes

Spills for Thrills

Edit
  • Title Card: This film is dedicated to the skill and courage of motion picture daredevils - Hollywood's stunt men and women.
  • [first lines]
  • Knox Manning: On with the show! The scene: a hundred-foot dive into a blazing tank. The actors, Hollywood stuntmen, trained and ready for the job.
  • Knox Manning: In the air, some of the world's greatest pilots have performed for Hollywood's cameras - Frank Clarke, Paul Mantz; they don't come any better.
  • Knox Manning: Female of the species is right - and what a gal! There are less than a dozen stuntwomen in motion pictures, and probably the best all-around performer is Mary Wiggins here. She's a real daredevil. She crashes cars and motorcycles, flies and stunts her own planes - she's an expert high and fancy diver, parachute jumper and tumbler! All of which hardly suggests the powderpuff.
  • Knox Manning: [on horse racing stuntmen] Somehow, these boys rarely get hurt, because they know how to fall. Their acrobatic training teaches them to relax and roll, like a barrel.
