“Louis B. Mayer-These are the people who send us our profits, who send us your wages. I make movies, Judy, but it’s your job to give those people dreams. The economy’s in the gutter, and they pay for you. And I’ll tell you something else. In every one of those towns, believe me, there’s a girl who’s prettier than you. Maybe their nose is a little thinner at the bridge. They have better teeth than you. Or they’re taller, or they’re slimmer. Only, you have something none of those pretty girls can ever have. You know what that is?
Young Judy-No, sir.
Louis B. Mayer-You have that voice. It’ll maybe take you to Oz, someplace none of those pretty girls can ever go.”referring to movie audiences
