"Dunaway does not chew scenery. Dunaway starts neatly at each corner of the set in every scene and swallows it whole, costars and all."
Variety, review of Mommie Dearest

Jerry Atrick: You even swallow it!
"Boy, those Canadians can really write."

"It's so hard to chew the scenery when he's wearing dentures."
Mike J. Nelson, Riff Trax
