Okay.. I want to tell you something.. when the Jaws die, nobody cry.. when my Kong die, everybody cry. Everybody love my Kong.. kids, women, intellectuals, all love my Kong.
- film producer Dino DeLaurentis (RIP),
in answer to Tom Snyder's question, "Mr. De Laurentiis, a few members of the Hollywood press have said that with all the money you spent on 'King Kong', you could have made twenty good movies instead. Some reporters have called you everything from a 'toy commercial maker' to a ruthless 'monkey pimp'. How, sir, do you answer these charges?
