Famous quotes with Rave about

  • The best part about the movie, and everybody seems to rave about it, is the boot camp part.
    R. Lee Ermey
  • I have twice seen Macready act; once in and once in . I astounded a dinner-party by honestly saying I did not like him. It is the fashion to rave about his splendid acting; anything more false and artificial, less genuinely impressive than his whole style, I could scarcely have imagined. The fact is, the stage-system altogether is hollow nonsense. They act farces well enough; the actors comprehend their parts and do them justice. They comprehend nothing about tragedy or Shakespeare, and it is a failure. I said so, and by so saying produced a blank silence, a mute consternation.
    Charlotte Brontë
