Aunt Lucy

Famous quotes containing the words aunt and/or lucy:

    The obvious parallels between Star Wars and The Wizard of Oz have frequently been noted: in both there is the orphan hero who is raised on a farm by an aunt and uncle and yearns to escape to adventure. Obi-wan Kenobi resembles the Wizard; the loyal, plucky little robot R2D2 is Toto; C3PO is the Tin Man; and Chewbacca is the Cowardly Lion. Darth Vader replaces the Wicked Witch: this is a patriarchy rather than a matriarchy.
    Andrew Gordon, U.S. educator, critic. “The Inescapable Family in American Science Fiction and Fantasy Films,” Journal of Popular Film and Television (Summer 1992)

    Lucy: I know I’ll enjoy Oklahoma City.
    Jerry: But, of course. And if it should get dull, you can always go to Tulsa for the weekend.
    Vina Delmar, U.S. novelist, playwright. Lucy (Irene Dunne)
