I wish I could write dialog like this:
night scene
John Fain
I just saw something in your eyes that I don't like.
I saw a foolish thought.
You understand me,
anything happens,
anything at all,
your fault,
my fault,
nobody's fault,
my little bother will blow that kids head right off
It's as simple as that.
No matter who else gets killed, that boy dies.
Shotgun misses him, it don't matter,
you already know about the rifle on him
That won't be as messy as a shotgun at three feet,
but that boy will be just as dead.
You understand me
Big Jake Nods
John Fain
Say it
Big Jake
I understand
John Fain
Now open it up
Big Jake tosses the key at John Fain's feet.
Big Jake
That's the stuff that dreams are made of
John Fain opens trunk filled with newspaper clippings
Gang member #1
What's a million dollars look like, John?
John Fain slowly looks up at Big Jake
Big Jake whispering
Now you understand
anything goes wrong
anything at all
your fault
my fault
nobody's fault
it don't matter
I'm going to blow your head off
It's as simple as that
Gang member #1
What'd he say?
Gang member #2
I can't hear him
Big Jake whispering
No matter what else happens
No matter who gets killed
I'm going to blow your head off.
