The Crying Game 1992 quotes

Col

You could always make it up to her. When a girl runs out like that, she generally wants to be followed.

Fergus

She's not a girl, Col.

Col

Whatever you say.

Fergus

Do they know?

Dil

Know what, honey?

Fergus

Know what I didn't know? And don't call me that.

Dil

Can't help it! A girl has her feelings.

Fergus

Thing is, Dil, you're not a girl.

Dil

Details, baby, details.

Fergus

So they do know?

Dil

Alright, they do.

Fergus

Don't. I should've known, shouldn't I?

Dil

Probably.

Fergus

Kind of wish I didn't.

Dil

You can always pretend.

Fergus

That's true. Your soldier knew, didn't he?

Dil

Absolutely.

Dil

Ask to meet me again, Jimmy.

Fergus

Do you think that's wise?

Dil

Nothing's wise.

Fergus

I didn't mean to hit you.

Dil

I know that.

Fergus

I kind of liked you as a girl.

Dil

Well that's a start.

Fergus

So I'm sorry.

Dil

So make it up to me.

Fergus

How?

Dil

Ask to meet me again.

Dil

Got you the multivitamins and the iron tablets, hon.

Fergus

Don't call me that.

Dil

Sorry, love. Now, the white ones are magnesium supplement.

Fergus

Stop it, Dil.

Dil

I've got to keep you healthy, Jimmy. I'm counting the days. Two thousand three hundred and thirty-four left.

Fergus

Thirty-five.

Dil

I'm sorry, darling. I keep forgetting the leap year. What am I supposed to call you then, Jimmy?

Fergus

Fergus.

Dil

Fergus. Fergus my love, light of my life.
Fergus : Please, Dil.

Dil

Can't help it. You're doing time for me. No greater love, as the man says. Wish you'd tell me why.

Fergus

As the man said, it's in my nature.

Dil

He's still looking, Col.

Col

Persistent.

Dil

Good thing in a man.

Col

An excellent quality.

Dil

Maybe he wants something.

Col

I expect he does.

Dil

Ask him!

Col

Ask him yourself!

Dil

What you thinking of, hon?

Fergus

I'm thinking of your man.

Dil

Why?

Fergus

I'm wondering why you keep his things.

Dil

I told you. I'm superstitious.

Fergus

Did he ever tell you you were beautiful?

Dil

All the time. Even now.

Fergus

What do you mean?

Dil

He looks after me. He's a gentleman, too.

Dil

You gonna tell me what it is?

Jude

What is it?

Dil

Do you know her, Jimmy?

Jude

Jimmy, is it? Do you know me, Jimmy?

Fergus

Dil, this is Jude.

Dil

Are you following me?

Jude

Yeah! Just checking. Is he being nice to you, Dil?

Dil

Ever so nice, aren't you, Jimmy?

Jude

That's good. I'm glad. Young love, as they say?

Dil

Absolutely. The younger the better. Doesn't come YOUR way much, I suppose.

Jude

Don't go looking for it, Dil.

Dil

Well, maybe you'll get lucky... someday.

Jude

Bit heavy on the powder, isn't she?

Dil

A girl has to have a bit of glamour.

Jude

Oh, absolutely. As long as she can keep it. Isn't that right, James?

Fergus

So who's he?

Col

He's what she should run a mile away from.

Fergus

Then why doesn't she?

Col

Who knows the secrets of the human heart?

Fergus

What the ****, do you know about my people?

Jody

Only that you're all tough, undiluted mother****ers... And it's not in your nature to let me go.

Fergus

Shut the **** up, will ya?

Dil

I can take it Jimmy. Just not in the face.

Dil

I'm loud, darling, but never cheap.
