The Great Gatsby (2000 TV Movie)

Richard Jutras: Owl Eyes

Quotes 

• Owl Eyes : What do you think?

  Jordan Baker : About what?

  Owl Eyes : About THAT.

  Jordan Baker : Books?

  Owl Eyes : They're real. Here. Let me show you. They have pages in them. See? A bonafide piece of printed matter. It fooled me. I've been drunk for about a week and I thought a library would sober me up.

  Jordan Baker : Did it help?

  Owl Eyes : I can't tell you. I've only been here an hour.

• Owl Eyes : [At Gatsby's funeral]  I couldn't get to the house.

  Nick Carraway : Neither could anybody else.

  Owl Eyes : Why my God, they used to go there by the hundreds. Poor son of a bitch.

  Nick Carraway : [Narrating]  Daisy hadn't sent a message or a flower. Poor son of a bitch.
