Quotes:

[Omar hands John a CD]
Omar: Cop dropped this off. Snow White and the Seven Dwarves the real story?
John Amsterdam: Close.
Omar: I always thought Dopey got the bum rap. Just because he doesn't talk doesn't mean he doesn't have something to say. And what's the deal with Happy? Why does he have to be fat? Are most fat people you know happy?
