Burt Reynolds credited as playing...
Jack Rhodes
- Gillian Bromley: [Rhodes has been coming on to her, trying to impress her with a Cary Grant impersonation] You can't be serious!
- Jack Rhodes: [Still doing "Cary Grant" impersonation] Why, I've never been more serious in my life.
- Gillian Bromley: Why are you imitating Tony Curtis?
- Jack Rhodes: [Normal voice] I'm not imitating Tony Curtis, I'm imitating Cary Grant.
- Gillian Bromley: You're doing Tony Curtis doing Cary Grant...
- Jack Rhodes: [Deflated] Oh...
- Gillian Bromley: Cary Grant doesn't even do "Cary Grant" any more.
- Gillian Bromley: [She and Rhodes have disguised themselves as Arabs, and have just cleared airport Customs inspection. Rhodes did his best to sound like an "Arab."] That was the worst Peter Sellers I have ever heard.
- Jack Rhodes: I wasn't doing Peter Sellers - I was doing Peter Sellers doing Omar Sharif!
- Jack Rhodes: How much do you want for the diamonds?
- Chief Insp. Cyril Willis: [Hesitantly] Well, um... Would you think that, um, one million dollars is fair?
- Jack Rhodes: [pauses] No... I don't think one million dollars is fair... I think THREE million dollars is fair.
- Chief Insp. Cyril Willis: [Surprised] Well, let me say this: I prefer YOUR definition of "fair."
- Jack Rhodes: [Ferguson is playing Ain't Misbehavin' at the piano] I've got a job. Diamonds. A million dollars.
- Ferguson: What's my share?
- Jack Rhodes: That is your share.
- Ferguson: [sings] I'm misbehavin'...
- Nigel Lawton: Pilot?
- Jack Rhodes: Ernst Mueller.
- Nigel Lawton: Last I heard he was flying Cubans into Africa.
- Jack Rhodes: I wonder if Castro knows he's a Nazi?
- Ernst Mueller: If it is Rhodes, it must be diamonds, ja?
- Jack Rhodes: Ah, still smart as a whip.
- Ernst Mueller: When is the job?
- Jack Rhodes: Soon. London.
- Ernst Mueller: It is London?
- Jack Rhodes: Starts in London. You'll fly over the Channel.
- Ernst Mueller: You know how many times I fly the channel?
- Jack Rhodes: Oh, many times. This time you won't be carrying any bombs. Won't be nearly as much fun, but then you'll go a lot faster.
- Ernst Mueller: If we dropped more bombs last time, different story.
- Jack Rhodes: Well, you don't win them all.
- Ernst Mueller: We don't win ANY of them!
- Jack Rhodes: Did you have any problems getting the plane?
- Nigel Lawton: No, one has one's friends. Here's the lease. You'll be pleased to see that we're a Panamanian corporation.
- Jack Rhodes: Based in Beirut.
- Nigel Lawton: With a Liechtenstein charter.
- Gillian Bromley: Did you remember to write "diamond thieves"?
- Nigel Lawton: No, no. I put "dope smugglers". Didn't want to arouse suspicion.
