Crossfire Trail (2001 TV Movie)

David O'Hara: Rock Mullaney

Quotes 

• Rock Mullaney : A Frenchman, a German, and an Irishman go into a saloon and order whiskeys. The drinks arrive and there's a fly in each one.

  Rock Mullaney : The Frenchman says, "Mon dieu! I can't drink this."

  Rock Mullaney : The German flicks the fly out of the whiskey and drinks it down.

  Rock Mullaney : The Irishman grabs the fly. He turns it upside down and he says, "Spit it out! Spit it out!"

• Rock Mullaney : May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the warm sun shine on your face. May the soft rain fall on your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hands.

  Joe Gill : And may you be three days in heaven before the Devil knows you're dead.

• Rock Mullaney : God invented the whiskey to keep the Irish from ruling the world.

• Joe Gill : [talking about meat]  Look here. This kid's killed this critter twice.

  J.T. Langston : You want it rare, there's a bunch of them running around outside. Why don't you go take a bite of one?

  Joe Gill : Mind your elders, boy. Mind your elders.

  Joe Gill : You know, I've been around this place a long time. I was here till Barkow moved Mrs. Rodney to town... and then he run me off.

  J.T. Langston : Why does she listen to him?

  Rafe Covington : She's alone, she's scared. He's got manners and smells nice.

  Joe Gill : Besides that, he wants this ranch and he wants it something fierce.

  J.T. Langston : Why does he want this place?

  Joe Gill : I don't know.

  Rafe Covington : Maybe he wants Mrs. Rodney fierce.

  Joe Gill : Maybe.

  Rafe Covington : Maybe both.

  Rock Mullaney : [door opens, Rock enters with guns pointed at him]  Is it Christmas yet?

  Rafe Covington : You don't look rich.

  Rock Mullaney : Maybe rich stopped mattering. Maybe Charlie mattered more. Maybe this gourmet cooking appealed to me.

  Rock Mullaney : [to Joe]  Brendan Mulaney.

  Joe Gill : Joe Gill.

  Rock Mullaney : Pleased to meet you, Joe.

  Joe Gill : Welcome here to Crazy Woman Ranch.

• Rock Mullaney : [sees the captain passed out]  Ah. That'll do it. Mutiny.

  J.T. Langston : Mutiny. What's the tariff on that?

  Rafe Covington : Hanging.

  J.T. Langston : I reckon we better not get caught.

• Joe Gill : [all four are cleaning their guns]  Well, one time he killed three fellas, cut their heads off. Hung them above the pawnshop, right by a sign that said: "Money to loan".

  Joe Gill : Then he's having supper with a guy one time... chased him down the end of main street... killed him, skinned him, nailed his hide to the barn door.

  Joe Gill : He's tougher than the back wall of a shooting gallery. And that, boys... is Bo Dorn.

  J.T. Langston : Sounds like one scary fella.

  Rafe Covington : Does, doesn't he?

  J.T. Langston : Maybe he's just passing through.

  Joe Gill : [next scene]  Nope. He doesn't leave Kansas unless he's on his way to kill somebody.

  Rock Mullaney : I'm betting that somebody is you, boss.

  Rafe Covington : No bet.

  Joe Gill : So you're gonna go to town and face this Bo Dorn fella... just to keep a promise to Charlie.

  Rock Mullaney : Come on now, Joe. There's more to this than real estate.

  Rafe Covington : [J.T. starts laughing]  What are you laughing at?

  J.T. Langston : Oh, I'm just reading the signs, Rafe. And the tracks is fresh.

  Rock Mullaney : About 115 pounds. Answers to the name of "Ann".

  Rafe Covington : [smiling]  She plays a nice piano.

• Rock Mullaney : This waiting is affecting my strategy.

  Joe Gill : Well, I do hope that stragety don't include plans for that queen because she's gone.

  Joe Gill : [to Rock]  No more Irish jokes.

  J.T. Langston : No, I like 'em.

  Rock Mullaney : There are two bulls at the top of a hill... in Cornamona. The young bull say to the old bull-...

  Joe Gill : Would it help if I gave you back your queen?

• J.T. Langston : [offers hand]  Howdy, ma'am. John Thomas Langston.

  Anne Rodney : Mr. Langston

  J.T. Langston : [with a big smile]  Nice to see ya.

  Rock Mullaney : Rock Mullaney. Pleased to meet you, ma'am.

• Rock Mullaney : [during a gun battle]  It's a first for me, Joe.

  Joe Gill : What's that?

  Rock Mullaney : I've never had to fight my way *into* a saloon before.

• Rock Mullaney : Old Hennesey's dying of the tuberculosis... so his missis sends for the priest to give him the last rites.

  Rock Mullaney : So the priest arrives at the death bed and says: "Hennesey, do you renounce Satan?"

  Rock Mullaney : "No," says Hennessey. "I do not." "You do not?" says the priest.
