Quotes:

Journalist at press conference: What do you think about British cinema?::Cesar Valentin: Oh! That would be a very good idea!

Cesar Valentin: You don't know why you killed me? I don't think I like having been killed for no reason, and so you will think of one. *Now*

Cesar Valentin: Have we met?::Merrick: Eh, my name is Merrick. Horace T. Merrick. No doubt you have heard of me.::Cesar Valentin: Horace T. Merrick? Oh! Yes. The Nobel Prize for literature. Aren't you the man who didn't get it?

Cesar Valentin: The story of a young man waiting for a telephone call from his mother or his lover or who was it?::Merrick: His brother who was his lover.::Cesar Valentin: That's right. The phone call didn't come, the young man fell asleep on the sofa, when he woke up there was still no phone call, and you squeezed all that into four hundred pages. Amazing.

Cesar Valentin: Last year in the theatre we were doing "Othello". The moment I walked on stage the audience began to applaud and cheer. And I hadn't even opened my mouth. Clearly the audience couldn't possibly be applauding my performance as Othello as I couldn't begin playing him because of all the noise. So they're applauding me as a famous person. Valentin was getting all the applause while this poor chap Othello was standing there, hoping they would shut up.

Quotes:

Grimes: Mister, you've got alot of hard bark on you walkin' down here like this. Now, I owe you. You put two holes in me.::John Russell: Usually enough for most of 'em.::Grimes: Don't try it again, that Vaquero is more than a fair hand.::Grimes: You got the money?::John Russell: Guess I brought my dirty laundry down by mistake.::Grimes: Let me see it.::John Russell: Look for yourself.::Grimes: [opens bag, pulls out a handful of clothes] Well now, what'ya suppose hell's gonna look like?::John Russell: We all die, just a question of when.

[Grimes has just delivered an ultimatum to Mendez and the others]::John Russell: Hey. I got a question. How are you planning to get back down that hill?::Grimes: Now you wait a minute! I'm getting back down the same way I came up! (Begins running back down the hill. Russell shoots him as he is running)::Jessie: [as Grimes crawls away after being shot] Cicero Grimes, meet John Russell.

Jessie: And we got him a marble headstone. It had his name on it, and underneath, we had them put, "In the Fullness of His Years." Is that all right with you?::John Russell: I'll settle for that. I'm not on the slab.::Jessie: Well, what do you figure yours is going to read?::John Russell: "Shot Dead," probably.::Jessie: Don't people take to you, Mr. Russell?::John Russell: It only takes one who doesn't.

Doris Blake: You're just saying that so we won't go down there.::John Russell: They'll kill you both. That's why I'm saying it.

[Russell has just fatally shot the Mexican bandit]::Mexican Bandit: I would like at least to know his name.::Henry Mendez: He was called John Russell.

Henry Mendez: Hombre, which name today, which do you want?::John Russell: Anything but bastard will do.

Braden: Hey, what's going on?::Jessie: I'm moving you out. I want you to take your socks, your cigar stubs, your long johns, and your nickel-plated sheriff's badge, and amble back down the hall to your own room.::Braden: I like it here.::Jessie: Can't quite remember how you got squatter's rights in here, anyhow. Seems to me you came by one night to ask for an extra blanket and stayed a year.

Braden: I been working since I was ten years old, Jessie, cleaning spittoons at a dime a day. It's now thirty years later, and all I can see out the window here is a dirt road going nowhere. The only thing that changes the view is the spotted dog lifting his leg against the wall over there. Saturday nights, I haul out the town drunks. I get their 25-cent dinners and their rotgut liquor heaved up over the front of my one good shirt. I wear three pounds of iron strapped to my leg. That makes me fair game for any punk cowboy who's had one too many. No, Jess, I don't need a wife. I need out.

Jessie: That soldier would have helped you and you know it.::John Russell: I didn't ask for any.::Jessie: He didn't even have a gun.::John Russell: That's his business he don't wanna carry one.::Jessie: It takes a lot to light a fire under you, doesn't it.::John Russell: If it's alright with you, lady, I just didn't feel like bleeding for him. And even if it isn't alright with you.

Doris Blake: I've heard a lot of stories about what the Indians do to white women.::Grimes: They do the same thing to white women they do to Indian women, and they don't mind it much, red or white.

Okinawa (1952)

Actors: Jerome Thoms (editor), Richard Denning (actor), Cameron Mitchell (actor), Alvy Moore (actor), Pat O'Brien (actor), Rhys Williams (actor), Wallace MacDonald (producer), Leonard Stern (writer), Leigh Jason (director), Richard Benedict (actor), George A. Cooper (actor), James Dobson (actor), Jameson Brewer (writer), Alan Dexter (actor), Arthur A. Ross (writer),

Plot: Basically the story of the sea battle for Okinawa between the ships of the U.S. Navy and the Japanese suicide planes---the Kamaikazes---and, as such, is filled with stock footage from official U.S. war-department films and newsreels and from Japanese newsreels..and even a movie-within-a-movie where 1948's "Ladies of the Chorus" is shown to a crew of a ship in 1944. The factual story is interlaced with a fictional one dealing with the crew of an American destroyer which is assigned to an ocean picket line around Okinawa to protect the supply ships and the forces on the island. As such, it has the usual battle-weary skipper, the Latino wise-guy, the "Kid" and the "Old Veteran", and the brash, cigar-chewing "operator" on the ship who has cornered the entire supply of the ship's beer rations.
