If you isolate each line of dialog, this film is great. Adolf Norbecker is clearly Adolph Coors who would become the target of a lavender boycott.
Loretta Swit is straight-up Madison Avenue -- yes they can be as well-paid and as slack jawed as they are in the initial pitch. The body language throughout is excellent.
Our market is for the guy who reached for the American Dream and came up with a beer in one hand and his dick in the other, yep that's me!
I work hard to keep radios off your shoulder. And it just goes on mocking all the 80s icons like Phil Donohue and other feminists.
The slogan "whip out your Norbecker" is priceless, especially when they're shown drinking and driving!
