 James McCaffrey QuotationMovie Title: The Truth About Cats & Dogs (1996) as Roy: Abby : Did you call me? Roy : What? Abby : I heard dumb bitch. I assumed you were talking to me. Roy : I was talking to her. Abby : Your name is dumb bitch TOO? No wonder I keep getting all of your mail! You know, we could be related. There are a lot of us dumb bitches here in LA. Movie Title: Max Payne (2001) as Max Payne: Joey Finito : Ladies and gentlemen, it's the Payne in the butt. Virgillio Finito : Payne to the Max! Max Payne : You're killing me. Did you get some wino downstairs to make it up, or did you come up with it yourselves? Don't answer that. A rhetorical question. Listen, I got something for your boss. Lupino around? Joey Finito : That kinda depends who's askin'. A friend or a junk squad plant. But don't answer! Its one of those... how you put it... rhetorical questions. Virgillio Finito : Lupino ain't in but he says bye! Max Payne : Vinnie Gognitti. Just the man I've been killing to see. Vinnie Gognitti : Payne! Freakin' fed! I knew from day one there was something screwy about you! What d'you think you're doing? You're a freakin' cop, you ain't got squat on us! You can't just come in here wavin' your piece like it meant something! [Gognitti shoots at Max, Max dodges and fires back] Vinnie Gognitti : Yeeaargh! Oh my God! Oh God! You shot me, aaaahh! You're dead Payne! What are you waiting for, ya apes, kill 'im! KILL 'IM! Thugs: With pleasure, boss! Max Payne : [Narrating] Gognitti bailed. I made like Chow Yun Fatt. Max Payne : I was so far past the point of no return, I forgot what it looked like as I passed it. Max Payne : He was trying to buy more sand for his hour glass. I wasn't selling any. Max Payne : When darkness fell, New York City became something else. Bad things happen in the night, on the streets of that other city. Noir York City. Max Payne : [narrating] The cardinal rule in going after someone with an intention to kill was no to make it personal... Which it almost always ended up being anyway. It did with me. Max Payne : So what does B.B. stand for anyway, backstabbing bastard? Max Payne : The shadows rushed me, bruised mug-shot faces hungry for revenge. They knew my weak points and closed in for the kill. The floor turned into a vortex of green blood. I fell. Max Payne : The crooks had enough explosives to send lady liberty into orbit. Max Payne : [Narrating] There was no glory in this... I hadn't asked for this grap... Trouble had come to me, in big dark swarms... The good and the Just, were like gold dust in this city. I had no illusions... I was not one of them, I was no hero... Just me and the gun, and the crook... My options decreased to a singular course [opening narration] Max Payne : They were all dead. The final gunshot was an exclamation mark on everything that had led to this point. I released my finger from the trigger, and it was over. [Max has punched Vinnie Gognitti] Vinnie Gognitti : Police brutality! Max Payne : I rate pretty high on that. Max Payne : I don't know about angels, but it's fear that gives men wings. Vinnie Gognitti : Book me, take me in, haul me to the freakin' jail, just don't hurt me! Max Payne : Your rights will be read at your funeral, Vinnie. Max Payne : One thing you can count on: You push a man too far, and sooner or later he'll start pushing back. Max Payne : Turn around, blow town, run away. That would have been the smart thing to do. I wasn't that smart. Max Payne : No Payne, No Gain. Max Payne : You play, you pay, you bastard. Nicole Horne : [On the P.A] It will be a cold day in Hell before I let a Narc Cop stop me. Ms. Sax, do your job. Mona Sax : Relax, Max. You're a nice guy. I don't kill nice guys. Max Payne : You're not bad yourself. Max Payne : [Narration] She was a nice girl. She was not a stone-cold killer. Now she's stone-cold dead. Max Payne : So much for being subtle. Max Payne : He had a baseball bat and I was tied to a chair. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do. Frankie Niagara : Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Frankie "the Bat" Niagara. Max Payne : "Niagara," as in you cry a lot? Max Payne : [narrating] There was nothing I could do. Alex was dead. I could tell by the empty, accusing stare of his eyes. Max Payne : [narrating] Lupino thought he could get to us by taking out Alex and leaving me to take the fall for it. All he had gotten was my attention. Max Payne : I was a Ninja, my Kung Fu was strong. Vinnie Gognitti : You - you can't just kill me in cold blood! Max Payne : You just keep telling yourself that. Vladamir : Bam! You're dead Max Payne. Max Payne : What's this supposed to be, Cops And Robbers? If you want something with me, get in line. [narrating] Max Payne : I would have laughed then, if I remembered how. Max Payne : [narrating] Collecting evidence had gotten old a few hundred bullets back. Max Payne : Everything ripped apart in a New York minute. Max Payne : [narrating] Punchinello wanted Payne? He'd see the pain. Max Payne : The sun went down with practiced bravado. Twilight crawled across the sky, laden with foreboding. Max Payne : The American dream come true, but dreams have a nasty way of going wrong when you're not looking... I didn't like the way the show started, they'd given me the best seat in the house... Front row center B.B. : You can't win this one, Max. Max Payne : Maybe, but I can make damn sure none of you do either. Max Payne : In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. Max Payne : Valkyr had been meant to be a white-winged maiden that would lift you to a warrior's heaven. But it turned out to be a one-way demon ride to hell. The devil was in the drug. I knew. I had met him. Max Payne : And now I was going to kill her- the queen of the underworld who had tried to lift herself a bit closer to heaven with her drug money. No begging, no bribes, she knew better - honor among killers, "We who are about to die." We both know how this would end: in pain and suffering. Vladimir : You get everything you need? Max Payne : Check!... Vladimir : Once you're through, book me up... I could use a professional like you.! Max Payne : I keep that in mind! Vladimir : Every time you get between a rock and a hard place... Just whistle... This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship Max Payne : You really make a big time Gangster out of this... Don't you? Max Payne : [Narrating] There were no hopes that Punchinello actually showed up, but things would soon get hot in the Don's restaurant... Max Payne : [Narrating] Gognitti ran out of steam in a dead end valley with steam boiling out of the sewer grates, like all the fires of hell were burning high beneath us... It was shakedown time. [As B.B. escapes in a getaway car] Max Payne : [Narrating] A bad cop on the take. A cowardly right-hand man fleeing from the scene, leaving his paid thugs to do his dirty work. Max Payne : [Narrating] Alex and I had a few moments of glory between us. Crime fighting comrades, the best in NYPD-DEA collaborative team... Good-hearted macho bullshit like that. I would have given anything to have him here as my back up. No such luck. No luck at all. Max Payne : [Narrating] Alex and I had a few moments of glory between us. Crime fighting comrades, the best in NYPD-DEA collaborative team... Good-hearted macho bullshit like that. I would have given anything to have him here as my back up. No such luck. No luck at all. [jumping out the window of an exploding office] Max Payne : It was an impressive floor show, but I didn't feel like staying for an encore. [after shooting a speaker in an elevator that is playing cheesy music] Max Payne : Thank you. Max Payne : Mona, looking good. Mona Sax : Max, we've gotta stop meeting like this. Max Payne : [narrating] I had taken on the role of the mythic detective: Bogart as Marlowe, or as Sam Spade going after the Maltese Falcon. Movie Title: Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne - A Film Noir Love Story (2003) as Max Payne: Max Payne : what about Mona Sax? Vladimir Lem : I know of her, her reputation as a hired killer. I hear she is a stone fox, I would fuck her. Max Payne : [narrating] Right then, I hated Vlad. Max Payne : [narrating] When you're looking down the barrel of a gun time slows down, your whole life flashes by, heartbreak and scars. Stay with it and you could live a lifetime in that split second Max Payne : [narrating] Vlad was right. There are no choices. Nothing but a straight line. The illusion comes afterwards, when you ask 'Why me?' and 'What if?'. When you look back and see the branches, like a pruned bonsai tree, or forked lightning. If you had done something differently, it wouldn't be you, it would be someone else looking back, asking a different set of questions. Max Payne : [narrating] The past is a gaping hole. You try to run from it, but the more you run, the deeper it grows behind you, its edges yawning at your heels. Your only chance is to turn around and face it. But it's like looking down into the grave of your love, or kissing the mouth of a gun, a bullet trembling in its dark nest, ready to blow your head off. Max Payne : [narrating] The past is a puzzle, like a broken mirror. As you peice it together, your image keeps shifting. And you change with it. It could destroy you, drive you mad. It could set you free. [Final Words] Max Payne : [narrating] I had a dream. In it, my wife was dead. But it was all right. Mona Sax : There's a contract out on us. Max Payne : There's no "us" in this. Max Payne : [narrating] For the first time in I don't know how long, I did not wish to be dead. Max Payne : [narrating] one last thing left to do... I was compelled to give Vlad his gun back... one bullet at a time. Max Payne : [narrating] When entertainment turns into a surreal reflection of your life, you're a lucky man if you can laugh at the joke. Luck and I weren't on speaking terms. Max Payne : [narrating] Your past has a way of sneaking up on you. You'll hear broken echoes of it everywhere, like a bad replay. You'll get mad at everyone for reminding you about it, even if it's all in your head. Max Payne : [narrating] Death is inevitable. Our fear of it makes us play safe, blocks out emotion. It's a losing game. Without passion you are already dead. Max Payne : [narrating] The trouble with wanting something is the fear of losing it, or never getting it. The thought makes you weak. Max Payne : [narrating] The things that I want by Max Payne. A smoke. A whisky. For the sun to shine. My wife and baby girl back. Unlimited ammo and a license to kill. Right then, more than anything, I wanted her. Max Payne : [narrating] I felt the rise of that old familiar feeling... I hated it... I welcomed it... Max Payne : [narrating] The genius of the hole: no matter how much time you spend climbing out, you can still fall back down in an instant. Max Payne : [narrating] As surely as the bullet rips through the victim's flesh, organ, and bone, it shatters the image of the man who pulled the trigger. Max Payne : [narrating] If Mona couldn't make it to the other side of the yard, I wouldn't make it out of there alive. It was that simple. Max Payne : [narrating] Like all the bad things in my life, it started with the death of a woman. Max Payne : [narrating] By talking of fate, Vlad had been asking for my blessing to his plan to murder me. I had been keeping to the back beat, reacting to Vlad's moves, cleaning up after him. [Max enters Vlad's resturant carrying a shotgun] Max Payne : No more. Max Payne : Mona? Mona Sax : Max, we've gotta stop meeting like this. [Max is given the choice to escape from his situation] Max Payne : [narrating] I didn't deserve to walk away. There are no happy endings. Max Payne : [narrating] She came to get me through the fire. Max Payne : [narrating] Winterson would've found a way to do this nice, neat and clean. Logic told me backup should be on its way, someone must've heard the gunfire - logic was such a liar... Max Payne : [narrating] firing a gun is a binary choice, you either pull the trigger or you don't... Max Payne : Vlad, shut up and stay alive I'm coming Vladimir Lem : Max! you heard him, he's coming for you! Mike the cowboy: hey, you Max Payne? Max Payne : afraid so... Mike the cowboy: Max! I'm Mike, Vladimir's friend! You are the sheriff, how about making me your deputy? Max Payne : let's go bail out your boss before he talks us all to death... Mike the cowboy: let's ride! Max Payne : [narrating] Vinnie was about to piss his pants, he'd end up short circuiting the bomb and blowing us both up... |
