• Hedda Hopper : We've been friends for a long time. When did you become such a bastard?

  Kirk Douglas : I've always been a bastard. You just never noticed.

• Edward 'Ed' Muhl : Kirk, if you don't get rid of Trumbo, I will.

  Kirk Douglas : And right after I quit, you can re-shoot all my scenes. You see, Ed, for better or worse, I AM Spartacus.

• Edward 'Ed' Muhl : Kirk. Hedda Hopper just told me the American Legion is going to boycott us unless you get rid of Trumbo.

  Kirk Douglas : Ed, he's not done with the script. His name will never be on the thing. What's anybody boycotting?

  Edward 'Ed' Muhl : [to the make-up artists]  Kirk... Just a second. Please. Please. Just give me five seconds, please.

  [the make-up artists clear away] 

  Edward 'Ed' Muhl : Listen. Twenty million Americans are saying loud and clear, they will never buy a ticket to our movie unless you fire one writer. Here's fifty. Pick one.
