Best Answer

Dr Jake Houseman, early on in the film when the Houseman family arrives at Kellerman's holiday resort. This part of the dialogue serves to show the difference between the Houseman sisters: the older Lisa is frivolous and vain; Frances 'Baby' Houseman is serious and politically aware.

Lisa Houseman: Oh, my God. Look at that! Ma, I should have brought those coral shoes. You said I was taking too much!
Marjorie Houseman: Well, sweetheart, you brought ten pairs.
Lisa Houseman: But the coral shoes match that dress!
Jake Houseman: This is not a tragedy. A tragedy is three men trapped in a mine, or police dogs used in Birmingham.
Baby: Monks burning themselves in protest.
Lisa Houseman: Butt out, Baby.
