Fade to Black (2006)

Christopher Walken: Brewster

Quotes 

• Brewster : [Pete Brewster, Lucky Luciano and Luciano's henchman have driven Welles out to a deserted stretch of dirt road and forced him out of the car]  You call yourself an American?

  'Lucky' Luciano : Listen - he's just another name on that list. I say we waste him. Let the Reds take the rap.

  'Lucky' Luciano : [Luciano's henchman punches and beats Welles, who falls to the ground. Henchman then approaches Welles and points a pistol to his head]  You got somethin' to say about that, Mr. Welles? Somethin' smart?

  Orson Welles : [Thug, with gun to Welles' head, racks the slide on his pistol]  Christ, Pete, stop him! You gotta' stop him!

  Brewster : [Coldly indifferent]  I don't have to stop him. You heard what he said: you're just a name on a list.

  Orson Welles : [Welles, in pain, grunts and groans on the ground] 

  Brewster : How can we possibly shoot you, when you played such a sterling part for Uncle Sam? You know that "list"... when we first planted it and you made such a big splash with it in the Press - well, it was more than I could have hoped. You know the best part? Originally, you weren't even on the list. You know why?... You're not that important. You were kind of an afterthought.

  'Lucky' Luciano : You're not worth the bullet, Mr. Welles.

  Brewster : [Welles, still on the ground, glares up at him]  Don't judge me! The war never stopped. It just went underground. We simply have to win. Now, it's all about sacrifices, and whether you're tough enough to make them.

  Orson Welles : Maybe you made too many, Pete. I remember when you had a soul, not just a job.

  Brewster : You're entitled to your opinion.

  Orson Welles : It's a free country.

  Brewster : [Walking back to the car, leaving Welles lying in the road]  Fuck you, Orson.

  Orson Welles : Fuck you, Pete.

  [Brewster and the others drive off, leaving Welles deserted in the road] 

• Brewster : I don't care who does what to whom in this country, but you're an American citizen, that makes you my responsibility. You're so lucky not to be floating face down in the Tiber right now. So please, finish your lousy movie and try to stay out of trouble for five minutes.

  Orson Welles : Maybe you're right.

  Brewster : I know I'm right.

  Orson Welles : It is a lousy movie.
