Duncan McLeod: Morning, Jane. Lovely morning.
Jane Foster: Good morning, Mr McLeod.
Duncan McLeod: Did I mention that my other name was Duncan?
Jane Foster: I believe you did. I don't remember mentioning that mine was Jane.
Duncan McLeod: Obviously an oversight
Jane Foster: [looking at him painting] I'm glad to see that you do something else besides smuggling.
Duncan McLeod: Oh, yes.
Jane Foster: Why do you smuggle?
Duncan McLeod: Keeps me out of mischief. I'm afraid you take rather a poor view of me, don't you?
Jane Foster: Possibly. It's quite a normal view to take of people who break laws. I mean, willfully break them.
Duncan McLeod: Trying to tell me you've never broken one yourself?
Jane Foster: What do you mean by that?
Duncan McLeod: Well we all do from time to time, don't we? Some more than others. You know - extra rations, dodging income tax and so forth. Quite human little failings really.
Jane Foster: Does smuggling liquor across the Channel come under the category of a human little failing?
Duncan McLeod: Oh, definitely.
Jane Foster: If you ever get caught, I hope the Customs authorities take the same view.
Duncan McLeod: Thank you! Didn't think you cared that much.
Jane Foster: I don't! If you want the truth, Mr McLeod, I hate people like you. You don't smuggle because you need the money, you do it out of bravado; because you think it's smart to get away with something.
Duncan McLeod: I wouldn't say that...
Jane Foster: Your worse than a real crook because you can look at what you're doing objectively and know that it's wrong. You think it's a good joke. But it's not. It's bad...
Duncan McLeod: You look wonderful!
Jane Foster: You make me quite sick, Mr McLeod!

The pub in this film was named after a mythical creature.
A nice snapshot of postwar gentlemanly dodgy dealing with the only loser being the excise man so we were all rooting for the smugglers of course. The smuggling was not the central plot however so this was more of a romance story than an exciting smuggling film was it was till enjoyable even for those not all that keen on romantic films.
