It’s from some damn Bette Davis picture, some goddamn Warner Brothers epic._ No one guessed these, so: The first is from _Beyond the Forrest._ The iconic line from that movie was of course, _“what a dump!”_ The second is from _Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf_. Elizabeth Taylor impersonating Bette Davis’s line from _Beyond the Forrest_. Ironically, most people misremember Davis delivering the line as Taylor said it.
