Touche pas à la femme blanche (1974)

Actors: Catherine Deneuve (actress), Darry Cowl (actor), Marcello Mastroianni (actor), Ugo Tognazzi (actor), Marco Ferreri (actor), Alain Cuny (actor), Paolo Villaggio (actor), Daniele Dublino (actor), Philippe Noiret (actor), Franco Fabrizi (actor), Michel Piccoli (actor), Serge Reggiani (actor), Noël Simsolo (actor), Gianmarco Tognazzi (actor), Michel Piccoli (producer),

Plot: Director Mario Fererri reenacts the events leading up to the Battle of the Little Big Horn in this wild, highly stylized surreal farce set in and around a gaping excavation for a huge urban renewal project in 1974 Paris. The anachronistic backdrop highlights the incongruity of the broad comic characterizations of real life figures George Armstrong Custer, Sitting Bull, and Buffalo Bill.

Quotes:

The Mad Indian: It's your fauly, Sitting Bull. You sign peace treaties, and they wipe their asses with ourtreaties. They wipe their asses with them!::Sitting Bull: This is the soldier's fury. The wise President Nixon ignores all this, I hope.::The Mad Indian: They devastated our fields. Yes, our fields! They cut down our forests. Yes, our forests! They exterminated our game. Yes, our game! They poison us every day with their alcohol and their flour full of strychnine. But don't listen to me. I'm a madman! We are condemned to die on reservations. They slaughter us as soon as they have a chance, but their President doesn't know anything about it. But don't listen to me. I'm a madman. The President doesn't know anything about it.

The Anthropologist: [Watching the general comb his hair while eating potato chips] You have magnificent hair, General.::George A. Custer: Yes, it impresses the Indians.::[Holding up his comb]::George A. Custer: Now you understand why this is important.

George A. Custer: [Talking about Buffalo Bill] That old fag was my scout for two years. He frequently took the wrong path. [laughs]

Marie-Hélène de Boismonfrais: What I don't understand is the Indian's attitude. It's obvious that the Lord gave this land to white men so they could settle here, so why do they resist?::George A. Custer: Because they're savages. They're savages. I sometimes feel they're possessed by demons.::Marie-Hélène de Boismonfrais: May God preserve us from that!::George A. Custer: God and the Seventh Cavalry!

George A. Custer: Why did you abandon your houses?::Sitting Bull: Because you destroyed them. Sometimes there were still people inside them.::George A. Custer: You were ordered to go to the reservation.::Sitting Bull: My people are dying of hunger in the reservations.

George A. Custer: Whoever dies for the country hasn't lived in vain. I, on the contrary, will live for the country because I'm not that stupid.

George A. Custer: [as his command is being wiped out] Damned Indians! They don't know how to fight wars!

Eddie Ellis: How do you feel about advice from someone who's older and who's been around a bit longer?::Ann McCalley: To be perfectly frank, I prefer it from someone younger who hasn't been around at all. Their advice is usually a lot more fun.::Eddie Ellis: Ann, you know you can't possibly have any kind of permanent relationship with a guy like that.::Ann McCalley: I'm not looking for anything permanent, 'cause nothing ever is.::Eddie Ellis: Beautiful you are, practical you're not.::Ann McCalley: I don't wanna be practical, I just wanna be happy. And I find that when I'm with him, I'm very happy.::Eddie Ellis: For how long?::Ann McCalley: Doesn't matter. Hey, you don't pass on happiness just because it might not last. You take it while you can.

[Ann is held hostage by the Heads]::Pig: Ah, hello, my name is Miss Pig and I'm the group recreational leader here. Would you like a dip in the pool? Badminton, bowling on the green, anything you like. Don't you look lovely in your little frock? Oh, I used it for a bedspread last year, I think. Do you like my clothes? Straight from the Goodwill bag, free for nothing. Straight from the sewers, you think? Could you use me on the cover of your magazine? Well, we're just dying to hear your comments on our humble way of life, as compared to that of the fashion world.::Ann McCalley: Fuck off.::Pig: Oh, thank you very much.
