      It's uncalled for, isn't it?

      I tend to think so; but when you've got a job to do, you've got to do it well; and I tend to think Tommy does.
      'Middle' enough for you, David?

    From the IMDb bio of Geoffrey Holder, who played Baron Samedi in 'Live and Let Die':
    "Upon winning the best-director Tony Award in 1975, he said in his acceptance speech, "Just try making that out of a cola nut!" This was a reference to his television commercial for 7-Up, which ended with the same words."
