Nebraska (film)

Nebraska is a 2013 film about an aging, booze-addled father who makes the trip from Montana to Nebraska with his estranged son in order to claim a million-dollar Mega Sweepstakes Marketing prize. Directed by Alexander Payne. Written by Bob Nelson. Woody Grant [to David] Have a drink with your old man. Be somebody! Kate Grant [upon learning Woody has "won" a million dollars] I never knew the son of a bitch even wanted to be a millionaire! He should have thought about that years ago and worked for it! I ain't fiddlin' with no cow titties. I'm a city girl! [lifts her dress and flashes a tombstone] You see this? You could have had all this to yourself, and look what you missed out on. Other Ross Grant: [in a physical altercation with his cousin] Hey, watch the face, okay? I'm on TV. Dialogue Kate Grant: That's Ed Pegram singing. [to Woody] Did you know that he was always trying to get in my bloomers? David Grant: Jesus Mom! Was the whole town trying to seduce you? Kate Grant: These boys grow up staring at the rear ends of cows and pigs, it's only natural that a real woman will get them chafing their pants. Kate Grant: [looking at graves] There's Woody's little sister, Rose. She was only nineteen when she was killed in a car wreck near Wausa. What a whore! David Grant: Mom! Kate Grant: Nah, I liked Rose, but my God, she was a slut. David Grant: C'mon... Kate Grant: I'm just telling you the truth! David Grant: Where's your family? Kate Grant: Oh, they're over in the Catholic cemetery. Catholics wouldn't be caught dead around all these damn Lutherans. [approaches another tombstone] Here's Delmer, Woody's cousin, he was a drunk. One time we were wrestling and he felt me up. Grabbed a handful of boob and Woody was right there and didn't have a clue, did ya Woody? Receptionist: [about Woody] Does he have Alzheimer's? David Grant: No, he just believes what people tell him. Receptionist: That's too bad. Aunt Betty: Now Kate, we only want what's fair and what's fair is if Woody lends us back some money. Kate Grant: You can all go fuck yourselves! Aunt Flo: Martha, where's Bart and Cole? Aunt Martha: Oh, they're off doing some volunteer work picking up trash off the streets. Kate Grant: It's community service; for Bart's rape. Aunt Martha: Sexual assault! Kate Grant: What's the difference? Aunt Martha: A huge difference... it's... well... the boys can explain it to you better than I can... Kate Grant: Why do you want meatloaf if it isn't even on the dinner menu? Woody Grant: 'Cause I like it. Waitress: What can I get you? Woody Grant: Do you have any meatloaf? Waitress: No, that's only part of our lunch specials. Kate Grant: He'll have the chicken. Waitress: Fried or grilled? Woody Grant: Fried. Kate Grant: He'll have it grilled. I think I'd like the roast beef, but I'm not entirely sure. What do you recommend? Waitress: Everything's all good ma'am, but I especially like the tilapia. Kate Grant: Oh, then I'll have the roast beef. David Grant: I'll have the tilapia. Receptionist: [after telling Woody he hasn't won the money] I can give you a free gift. Would you like a hat or a seat cushion? David Grant: Dad? Do you want a hat or a seat cushion? Woody Grant: I'll take a hat.
