Movie Classic - Miller's Crossing
There are a lot of things to love about Miller's Crossing but for me its the crackling dialogue. Here's some of my favourites;
Tony: Wake up, Tommy.
Tom: I am awake.
Tony: Your eyes were shut.
Tom: Who're you gonna believe?
Tom: ...She sees the angle - which is you - and she plays it. She's a grifter, just like her brother. They probably had grifter parents and grifter grandparents and someday they'll each spawn little grifter kids.
Tom: She speaks highly of you.
Bernie: Yeah, well you stick by your family.
Leo: They took his hair, Tommy. Jesus that's strange. Why would they do that?
Tom: Maybe it was Injuns.
Verna:...Maybe that's why I like you, Tom. I've never met anyone made being a sonofabitch such a point of pride.
Bernie: Don't smart me. See, I wanna watch you squirm. I wanna see you sweat a little. And when you smart me, it ruins it.
and my most favourite
Bernie: Cause ethically he's kinda shakey
