Cruel

• Lord Byron (yes, it's very old) called this the 'under look'.

• Many animals will express their aggression by taking this position. If an animal flattens their ears back while giving a Kubrick Stare, they may be planning to attack.

• Anthony Kiedis of Red Hot Chili Peppers describes his "seductive stare" as the "Classic Kiedis Chin Tilt". Needless to say, it is very much a Kubrick Stare

“Bond is a masculine fantasy, but of course, he ALSO appeals to women,  though he ought to look like Bad News.

One of the adjectives Fleming repeatedly uses about Bond is “cruel.” And he IS cruel. He kills nearly 40 people in the adventures described by Fleming.”

Charlie:

We're gonna resign, Leona. 

It's what has to happen now. 

Elliot Hirsch, Sloan Sabbith, 

Terry Smith, Dayside ACN, ACN. 

We understand the integrity of the news is more important--

Leona Lansing:

Than one individual. 

That is beautiful. 

Not as beautiful as Daniel Craig.

Charlie:

Leona.

Leona Lansing:

I'd have sent my plane.

Charlie:

We're not f***ing around.

Leona Lansing:

You will resign when I fire you 

out of petty malice and not before.

Charlie:

Our trust numbers are--

Leona Lansing:

Yeah, they're bad.

Charlie:

They're fatal.

Will:

Firing Jerry was obviously the right thing to do, 

but it wasn't enough 

and we've known that for two months. 

Charlie and I have to go.

Leona Lansing:

And Twiggy over here?

Mac:

It was my fault.

Leona Lansing:

McMac. Can I call you McMac? 

Doesn't matter, I'm gonna anyway, 

McMac. Your head's up your ass.

Mac:

Mrs. Lansing.

Leona Lansing:

Guy comes in here into my hizzy-- guy comes in here, cooks an interview, no remorse. It goes on air. You, I don't know what you'd do to Sherlock Holmes this thing. I wouldn't be able to figure it out and I'm the smartest person in the room.

Will:

Well, I wouldn't go that--

Leona Lansing:

Oh, shut the f*** up, 

you Daniel Craig wannabe.

Will:

I don't want to be Daniel Craig.

Leona Lansing:

Well, you should want 

to be Daniel Craig. 

Everybody should.

Will:

Leona, are you stoned?

Leona Lansing:

[catching sight of her own reflection in a window] 

You know, my makeup 

lasts a long time.

Will:

Oh, jeez.

Mac:

Mrs. Lansing.

Leona Lansing:

No, no, please, call me-- Continue to call me Mrs. Lansing.

Will:

Leona--

Leona Lansing:

Guy comes into my house which I love. 

Which I bet you guys didn't know. 

But I love it. I love ACN. 

You don't make me a nickel 

and you cause headaches for the divisions that do, 

but you make me-- 

You make me so proud. 

God, guy comes in here, 

cooks an interview, 

and this ends up with-- 

'Cause he's unemployable 

he gets a $5 million settlement 

and the three of you leave? 

Oh, I don't think so. 

And McMac. 

That's a name that's really starting to grow on me. 

She doesn't have to go. 

Nobody's ever heard of her. 

But she's going to do the honorable thing. 

And what's expected of me, huh? 

Not to do the honorable thing? 

What's expected of me? 

No, I do not accept your resignations! 

And Jerry Dantana's not gonna get one f***ing dollar! 

I got some kick-ass courtroom outfits.

Will:

You have to accept our resignations 

and you have to settle. 

He'll take it to trial and win. 

There was an institutional failure 

and he was the only one fired.

Rebecca Halliday:

Then you'll need a good lawyer. 

Lee, don't accept their resignations.

Leona Lansing:

I already wasn't accepting their resignations, Becca. 

Don't horn in on my honorable thing. 

God, I mean, can't a lady have--

Charlie:

[in desperation] 

Leona, we don't have the trust of the public anymore!

Leona Lansing:

Get it back!
