- Quotes
Marguerita Ventura: You bitch!
Rosie Velez: Ever since I came here, you've done nothing but treat me like shit. Who the hell do you think you are? Yeah, I was a dance hall girl, but what makes you so high and mighty? You own a whorehouse! A whorehouse!... and with only three whores in it. One of them is just a senile old cow.
[aside to Big Ed]
Rosie Velez: No offense, honey.
[back to Maguerita]
Rosie Velez: And the other one's so new at it, she doesn't know which end to use. So what does that make you? The only whore in Chili Verde. Yeah, I came here for the gold, because I've been poor all my life.
Marguerita Ventura: You've got it all wrong, honey. You've been cheap all your life.
Rosie Velez: Cheap?
[picks up a chair, and breaks it over Maguerita]
Rosie Velez: This furniture is cheap.

Music & Lyrics by Karen Hart
Arranged & Conducted by Peter Matz
Performed by Mike Stull
Divine, in her flashy and suburban style, might seem out of place from the western universe, but the contrast is happy, even constituting a rival to the height of the exuberant Marguerita, manager of the local brothel.
An original and entertaining film that has aged well and could have been directed by John Waters.
