    I have said in many comment sections that Mr McDowell’s character redemption arc may be one of my favorites of all time. He comes off as greedy and materialistic throughout the movie, but his awesome true colors show through when someone upsets “daddy’s little girl”.
    “No way, you don’t have enough money to buy my daughter off”, and “This America, Jack! You say one more word about my daughter and I will break my foot off in your royal a$$!” are my personal favorite lines in the movie.

Velvet?” And we randomly bust out singing “she’s your queen to be” when we see something that reminds us of Oha or a African woman.

      It’s also a glimpse into how nothing get done and money comes from both sides, but the wealthy side supports the wealthy interests instead of the countries.
      Support the Sugar manufacturers or the Dentist and Insurance companies? All votes go to keep the rich getting richer and you want to make change they’ll block you or make it difficult. The well being of others doesn’t compare to the greed of power and keeping it.

    It was so much fun to see you laughing with this! Now that you've seen Don Ameche in this and Trading Places, it's time for Cocoon! I think you'll love it (I'm sure it's been recommended). I have thought about if I would want the kind of attention that seems to follow "commoners" who marry royalty and that's not for me. I like privacy! But I would love to have the kind of money and influence that comes with being royalty, so I could help a lot of people (hopefully) and make some positive changes in the world. Lisa seems like that kind of person, so she's definitely going to be a hands-on "princess of the people".
