Nuts (1987)

Maureen Stapleton: Rose Kirk

Quotes 

• Francis MacMillan : You don't believe your mother loves you?

  Claudia Draper : God, of course, she loves me. She told you that. Didn't you hear her? He wrote it down. Now you stand up there asking, "Do you love your daughter?" And she says, "Yes, I love my daughter." And you think you've asked something real? And she thinks she said something real? You think because you toss this word "love" around like a Frisbee we're all gonna get warm and runny. No. Sometimes people love you so much their love is like a goddamn gun that keeps firing straight into your head. They love you so much you go right into a hospital. Right, Mama?

  Rose Kirk : I didn't know. I didn't know.

  Claudia Draper : No, you didn't want to know.

  Francis MacMillan : Mrs. Draper, I'm a little confused. Do you love your mother?

  Claudia Draper : Sure, I love her. So what?
