Gigi Coming of Age Quotes

How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Gigi.

Quote #7

GASTON (singing): [...] you're not at all that funny little girl I knew/ oh no, overnight, there's been a breathless change in you.

Seriously? All that's changed about Gigi is that she's been dressed up in grownup clothes. What's changed is Gaston's lust levels.

Quote #8

GIGI: When it's over, Gaston Lachaille goes off with another lady. And I have only to go into another gentleman's bed. That won't do for me. I'm not changeable. That won't do for me. Grandmama and Aunt Alicia are on your side, but this concerns me too. And I think I should have something to say about it. And what I say is, it won't work. It won't work!

Diagnosis: Adulthood. Gigi understands more about Gaston than he thinks, and she's letting him hear it. Even though he wants to avoid this conversation, she wants a say in her future, and she's pipin' up. After this though, she surrenders and says she'd rather have him this way than not at all. Our hearts are breaking.
