April 19[edit]

Mrs Doubtfire - "Actors"[edit]

In the film Mrs Doubtfire, what does it mean when Lou, Lydia and Miranda (in a deleted scene) say "actors" after Daniel quits his voice-acting job when he questioned cartoon smoking? 86.143.101.46 (talk) 19:36, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not having seen the scene, we can only guess. If this is a one-word sentence spoken in a contemptuous tone, Actors!, the meaning is, That is the kind of dumb behaviour one can expect of actors.  --Lambiam 20:39, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If it made no sense, maybe that's why it was deleted. --←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 21:05, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So they mend "dumb/stupid actors"? And when Daniel told Lydia and Chris if Miranda finds out he is Mrs Doubtfire, he said he'll only see them through plate glass. Does that mean she'll have him locked up by being thrown into jail for fraud or impersonation? 86.143.101.46 (talk) 18:33, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
