And this whole part only gets better when little Glorie's parents show up.

I always role on the floor in laughter and some disgust about the line earlier in the movie when Mame is at little Glorie's parent's and they tell Mame the neighborhood is "restricted and exclusive" and Mame asks something like "restricted from whom and exclusive of what?" That is priceless.

It was a great moment for equal rights being introduced into the conversation back then considering we hadn't even gotten to African Americans being equal citizens yet. It was actually rather bold.
