Jack Van Meter: Get the hell down from there. While you're grandstanding here the city is starting to burn. Jimmy, for Chrissakes!
Det. Sgt. Eldon Perry Jr.: If the city is starting to burn, Jack, it's partly because of guys like you and me. And I may be a goddamm alcoholic but that doesn't mean I can't tell the truth - and I've got all the deep deep dirt right here. Somebody put the cuffs on me - let me start talking!

The great thing about this flick is that it doesn't try to be more than it is. Which is just a very entertaining, suspenseful cop movie.
Well worth a watch.
