The Devil Makes Three (1952)

Quotes

The Devil Makes Three

Edit
  • Lt. Parker: Not a bad town, what's left of it. There's a brawl tonight: beer, broads, and knockwurst. You're invited.
  • Heisemann: [singing] Who has got the money? Who has got the geld? Is there that much pinke-pinke, In the whole wide world?
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: Merry Christmas. You will like it here at the Silhouette. At midnight, Kris Kringle comes down the chimney and does a strip tease.
  • Heisemann: [singing] Was that the man with the little mustache? Quite without blinking an eye, The house will be standing for 1000 years, Then came the bombs from the sky...
  • Lt. Parker: If she's still alive and she's still pretty, there are just so many joints in Munich where she could be and I know every one of 'em.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: Not Willie, she wasn't the type.
  • Lt. Parker: If she's been hungry long enough, she's the type.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: Well, when in Salzburg, be a Salz.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: Willie, you and your family gave me the best present I ever got. You saved my life. Ever since, I've been wanting to come back and spend Christmas with the Lehrts again.
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: So you could get us off your conscience for the rest of your life?
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: Call it that, if you like.
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: Every American I meet has a conscience or a wife who doesn't understand him.
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: Come in, Captain. You won't have to look at the scenery any more. I can pull the blinds.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: Here, order something, skinny.
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: I'm not too skinny.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: O-o-o-order something anyway.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: [observing some German jitterbuggers] Das ist gut, ja.
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: I don't think I could ever learn to do dat.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: Sure you could. All you need is a good, hard hit on the head.
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: You are filled with pity and gratitude and guilt. That's what you're mistaking for love.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: Look, Willie, I don't feel like playing games. The thought of you in this clip joint gives me the creeps. And I'm going to do something about it.
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: What could you do? There's a whole ocean and a whole war between us. You won it. We lost it.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: Willie smuggled a few camera lenses and needles, that's hardly enough to stitch together a new Hitler.
  • Lt. Parker: Don't you understand? The fräulein took you for a ride. We want you to return the favor, that's all.
  • Cabaret Singer: [singing] Can love come back again? Do we still dare to try? Can we begin again? Oh, there must be a way, Can we forget the tears, That we shed yesterday?
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: Policemen don't have consciences to bother them. If they did, they wouldn't be policemen.
  • Heisemann: [singing] Not long ago the Christmas tree stood proudly in the hall, Upon it starry candles sung and underneath it children sung, Of "Deutschland, Über Alles",,,
  • Wilhelmina (Willie) Lehrt: Are you the man they always use to trap women?
  • Heisemann: Let's save time, Captain.
  • Capt. Jeff Eliot: I've got plenty of time!
  • Heisemann: I don't think you have.
  • Col. James Terry: You're home early. What happened? Did her husband open the door?
  • Lt. Parker: The family I went to see were bombed out.
  • Col. James Terry: A Kraut family?
  • Lt. Parker: Yeah, a Kraut family. They were wonderful people.
