Nightfall (1956)

Brian Keith: John

Quotes 

• John : [after Red has pistol-whipped Vanning into unconsciousness]  Feel better?

  Red : Yeah.

  John : Look, Red, tonight's his night. Might be a short one. Might be a long one. But he's gonna keep breathing until we get an answer out of him. You got that?

  Red : [Sarcastically]  Oh, John, you got a soft spot!

  John : Like the top of your head. That's your whole trouble. You know that? The top of your head never closed up when you were a kid... neither did your mouth!

• John : Well, maybe we can get this thing straightened out, and everything will be fine.

  James Vanning : [Sardonically]  And "dandy." Don't forget the "dandy."

  John : Oh, yeah - "dandy."
