Somebody Up There Likes Me (1956)

Donna Jo Gribble: Yolanda Barbella

Quotes 

• Yolanda Barbella : [after hearing on the radio that Rocky loses a major middleweight champion fight]  Norma, he'll be all right.

  Norma : Sure he will. He's hard and tough. He can take anything. But I can't.

  Yolanda Barbella : He had to lose sometime.

  Norma : It isn't whether he loses or wins. All he has to do is step into that ring and I'd like to run and hide, knowing maybe they'll hurt him, cripple him.

  Ma Barbella : Did you ever tell this to Rocky? Did you ever ask him to stop fighting?

  Norma : It's his whole life, everything he's got.

  Ma Barbella : Then it's your whole life too. Don't ever make the mistake of forgetting that like I did.

  Norma : That's right. I didn't marry a man, did I? I married a middleweight.
