It (1927)

Antonio Moreno: Cyrus T. Waltham

Quotes 

• Adela Van Norman : Miss Van Cortland seems to be rather lacking in reserve, doesn't she?

  Cyrus Waltham Jr. : Personally, I think she has plenty - in reserve!

• Cyrus Waltham Jr. : Madame Glyn, we've been talking about your latest story. Just what *is* this "IT"?

  Madame Glyn : Self-confidence and indifference as to whether you are pleasing or not - and something in you that gives the impression that you are not all cold. That's "IT"!

  Madame Glyn : [emphasizing, with her finger, to Cyrus]  If you have "IT", you will win the girl you love.

• Cyrus Waltham Jr. : Betty, I'm crazy about you...

  Betty Lou Spence : [ebullient]  I love you too!

  Cyrus Waltham Jr. : I'll buy you diamonds, clothes, anything you want...

  Betty Lou Spence : [insulted]  What are you trying to do? Offer me one of those "left-hand" arrangements?

  Cyrus Waltham Jr. : I'm crazy about you! Isn't that enough?

  Betty Lou Spence : [walking out]  I suppose that's what you men call "love"!

• Cyrus Waltham Jr. : You idiot! Who's the girl?

  Monty Montgomery : She's a ripping sort, really. She's positively top heavy with IT!

• Cyrus Waltham Jr. : You know what sort she is - with a fatherless child!

  Monty Montgomery : But I say - he isn't fatherless.

• Cyrus Waltham Jr. : What the devil are you doing?

  Monty Montgomery : No - too bad - but you haven't any 'IT'!

• Adela Van Norman : Of course you're reading Elinor Glyn's latest story, 'IT'?

  Cyrus Waltham Jr. : Monty was raving about it today. What *is* 'IT'?

• Cyrus Waltham Jr. : I've been thinking things over, Betty. I want to talk to you - seriously.

  Betty Lou Spence : Be serious - with *you*? How silly!

• Betty Lou : Are you mad at me because I slapped you?

  Cyrus Waltham Jr. : No.

  Betty Lou : No? I'm sorry - but a girl *has* to do that. You know how those things are!
