Death Wish (1974)

[edit]

Paul Kersey

[edit]
  • Hey!

Freak #1

[edit]
  • We want money, mother, now get it!
  • Goddamn rich cunt! I KILL RICH CUNTS!

Dialogue

[edit]
Jack Toby: We gotta let the cops handle this, Dad.
Paul Kersey: Yeah? Well, what if the cops can't handle this?
Sam Kreutzer: You know, decent people are going to have to work here and live somewhere else.
Paul Kersey: By "decent people," you mean people who can afford to live somewhere else.
Sam Kreutzer: Oh Christ, you are such a bleeding-heart liberal, Paul.
Paul Kersey: My heart bleeds a little for the underprivileged, yes.
Sam Kreutzer: The underprivileged are beating our goddamned brains out. You know what I say? Stick them in concentration camps, that's what I say.
Paul Kersey: You've got a prime figure. You really have, you know.
Joanna Kersey: That's a euphemism for fat.
Paul Kersey: Any chance of catching these men?
Lt. Briggs: There's a chance, sure.
Paul Kersey: Just a chance?
Lt. Briggs: I'd be less than honest if I gave you more hope, Mr. Kersey. In the city, that's the way it is.
Ames Jainchill: You're probably one of them knee-jerk liberals that thinks us gun boys would shoot our guns because it's an extension of our penises.
Paul Kersey: Never thought about it that way. It could be true.
Ames Jainchill: Well, maybe it is. But this is gun country.
Frank Ochoa: We want you to get out of New York... Permanently.
(pause)
Paul Kersey: Inspector... By sundown?
Paul Kersey: Nothing to do but cut and run, huh? What else? What about the old American social custom of self-defense? If the police don't defend us, maybe we ought to do it ourselves.
Jack Toby: We're not pioneers anymore, Dad.
Paul Kersey: What are we, Jack?
Jack Toby: What do you mean?
Paul Kersey: I mean, if we're not pioneers, what have we become? What do you call people who, when they're faced with a condition or fear, do nothing about it, they just run and hide?
Jack Toby: Civilized?
Paul Kersey: No.
Sam Kreutzer: I'll bet muggings are down, and they're afraid to tell us.
Paul Kersey: There's only one way to find out. Take a walk on Columbus Avenue tonight.

Elliott Cass: Are you free tomorrow Paul?
Paul Kersey: Sure, What else would I be doing?
(several gunshots are heard and the credits roll)
Paul Kersey: Where's my wallet?
Jiver: I ain't got it!
Paul Kersey: Goodbye
(Kersey then shoots Jiver in the head with his Beretta Cheetah pistol)
