Go Get Your Shinebox

Not WVU or sports related, but the director of Goodfellas, Casino and Taxi Driver finally got his due last night.


GOODFELLAS
Sure, mom, I settle down with a nice girl every night, then I'm free the next morning.

What's the fuckin' matter with you? What - what is the fuckin' matter with you? What are you, stupid or what? Tommy, Tommy, I'm kidding with you. What the fuck are you doin'? What are you, a fuckin' sick maniac?
How am I meant to know you're kidding? What you mean, you're kidding? You breaking my fuckin' balls?
I'm fuckin' kidding with you! You fuckin' shoot the guy?
He's dead.
Good shot. What do you want from me? Good shot. Fuckin' rat anyway. Kid's all rat. He'll grow up to be a rat.
You stupid bastard, I can't fuckin' believe you. Now, you're gonna dig the fuckin' thing now. You're gonna dig the hole. You're gonna do it. I got no fuckin' line. You're gonna do it.
Who the fuck cares? I'll dig the fuckin' hole. I don't give a fuck. What is it, the first hole I dug? Not the first time I dug a hole. I'll fuckin' dig a hole. Where are the shovels?

CASINO
I'm just curious. I saw you shuffling your checks with your right hand. Can you do that with both hands?
No.
Can't do it with both hands?
No, sir.
Can you do it with your left hand?
Well, I... I never tried.
So you're a righty?
Yeah.
[one of the guards repeatedly bangs the signaller's right hand with a hammer]
Now you're gonna have to learn with your left hand.

TAXI DRIVER
[Travis is trying his guns on the mirror] Huh? Huh?
[Draws]
Faster than you, fucking son of a... Saw you coming you fucking... shitheel.
[Reholsters]
I'm standing here; you make the move. You make the move. It's your move...
[Draws]
Don't try it you fuck.
[Reholsters]
You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Then who the hell else are you talking... you talking to me? Well I'm the only one here. Who the fuck do you think you're talking to? Oh yeah? OK.
[Draws]

The Color of Money:

I can always go back to whiskey, it's been very good to me.
