Quotes

Anna

Edit
  • Olga: Trouble never sends a warning.
  • Olga: Adversity is a great teacher.
  • Lenny Miller: [as Anna explains that she has to cut off the man's finger herself] All right, okay! I understand! All right, shut him up! Take a deep breath, sir! Give her the fucking knife!
  • Anna: I work for the KGB, baby.
  • Vassiliev: [pointing a gun in Anna's face] There is only one way to leave the KGB. Do you want to know what it is ?
  • Anna: No, sir.
  • Vassiliev: So don't play with me.
  • Anna: [entering Miller's room] We're probably never going to get that dinner are we ?
  • Lenny Miller: Probably not.
  • Anna: [undressing] Then we'd better fuck instead.
  • Olga: [Last line]
  • [on being backstabbed by Anna]
  • Olga: Bitch.
  • Anna: [after beating up a model photographer] It's a wrap.
  • Alex Tchenkov: In six months, the information you have will be obsolete. They will come after you, wherever you are.
  • Anna: I never had a single day of freedom. Six months is an eternity. And I better have it.
  • [turning to Lenny]
  • Anna: Are we agreed?
  • Lenny Miller: I wish you the very best... for at least six months.
  • Alex Tchenkov: For now, enjoy the moment. Give yourself time, Anna. It plays in your favour. Let the currents move beneath you. Powers will shift. Enemies can vanish. Do what you can to stay alive. Time will do the rest.
  • [last lines]
  • Vassiliev: [while playing chess] Check.
  • Anna: [shoots him point blank] Mate.
  • Lenny Miller: [guns drawn on each other] Let me help her, Tchenkov.
  • Alex Tchenkov: What makes you think she needs your help?
  • [as agents start surrounding them]
  • Lenny Miller: She gonna die.
  • Alex Tchenkov: We're all going to die one day.
  • Olga: You Don't Fuck With The KGB
  • [last lines]
  • Olga: [on Anna blackmailing her] Bitch!
  • [is forced to erase Anna's entire KGB file]
  • Anna: [climbing into bed with her soon-to-be lover] It's only for tonight.
  • Alex Tchenkov: You're crazy. You'll never make it out of here alive.
  • Anna: Lay down.
  • Alex Tchenkov: You're a dead woman.
  • Anna: I love you too.
  • Piotr: If it wasn't for me, you'd be on the streets turning tricks for meals.
  • Alex Tchenkov: Anna Politova?
  • [Anna nods]
  • Alex Tchenkov: I understand you speak English.
  • [the girl nods again]
  • Alex Tchenkov: You're going to have questions... and I'll answer them. But first, I need you to listen.
  • [takes out pistol from jacket]
  • Alex Tchenkov: We all have turning points in our lives. Most of the time we can't see them until they're in our rear-view mirror. But I'm here to tell you this is one of those moments. Every intersection offers *several* possibilities. You just have to pick the right road. And sometimes, those choices have to be made quickly.
  • Piotr: [suddenly enters] Anna!
  • [growls something, gets shot down by Alex]
  • Anna: [coolly watched as another bullet shattered into the limp body] How do you know I speak English?
  • Alex Tchenkov: [removes silencer from pistol] A few days ago, you filed an application to enlist in the Navy. Why?
  • Anna: I'll enlist in anything that gets me out of this shitty existence.
  • Alex Tchenkov: Your father was a lieutenant. But you didn't write that on your application. And you were a cadet at Omsk Military Academy. But you dropped out at seventeen.
  • Anna: After my parents died.
  • [has vivid memory of horrific car crash]
  • Alex Tchenkov: It says here you like chess.
  • Anna: [has memory of playing against uniformed officers] I can play.
  • Alex Tchenkov: Your profile interests us. You have talents and skills that we can help you develop.
  • Anna: Like what?
  • Alex Tchenkov: A sharp mind. Calm under pressure. And a certain amount of anger can be useful. Mostly though, you're a blank key, which means you have the potential to open many doors.
  • Anna: You're offering me a job?
  • Alex Tchenkov: I'm offering you a fresh start. One year's military training. Four years operational in the field.
  • Anna: And when it's done?
  • Alex Tchenkov: Five minutes ago, you had no future. Now you want to know what it holds? In five years, you're free to go.
