New York Confidential (1955)

Broderick Crawford: Charlie Lupo

Quotes 

• Katherine (Kathy) Lupo : Should I be happy because you bought him like you buy everybody else?

  Charlie Lupo : I didn't buy him. Of course I talked to the boy. But what's wrong with helping Stan?

  Katherine (Kathy) Lupo : I told you to leave him alone. Now I wouldn't spit on him.

  Charlie Lupo : Be practical Kathy. I only did it for you. Haven't I always given you everything you ever wanted?

  Katherine (Kathy) Lupo : Yes Poppa - you've always given me everything: everything except for self respect and decency. That's something you can't buy.

• Charlie Lupo : You know Ben and your father with the first friends I had in this country.

  Nick Magellan : Yes, I know Charlie.

  Charlie Lupo : Ben saved my life down at the docks. Almost got killed doing it too. He's gonna have to go - that's all there is to it. The organisation comes first.

• Charlie Lupo : Loyalty - that's something you can't buy. Half the pigs that work for us can't even spell it. Oh - what I wouldn't give for a salami on rye and a kosher pickle.
