Ocean's Eleven (2001) quotes
Director
Steven Soderbergh.
Danny Ocean and his eleven accomplices plan to rob three Las Vegas casinos simultaneously.
You scared?
– Rusty
You suicidal?
– Linus
Only in the morning.
– Rusty
Saul, are you sure you’re ready to do this?
– Danny
If you ever ask me that question again Daniel, you will not wake up the following morning.
– Saul
He’s ready.
– Danny
Look, we all go way back and uh, I owe you from the thing with the guy in the place and I’ll never forget it.
– Reuben
That was our pleasure.
– Danny
I’d never been to Belize.
– Rusty
You look down, they know you’re lying and up, they know you don’t know the truth. Don’t use seven words when four will do. Don’t shift your weight, look always at your mark but don’t stare, be specific but not memorable, be funny but don’t make him laugh. He’s got to like you then forget you the moment you’ve left his side. And for God’s sake, whatever you do, don’t, under any circumstances…
– Rusty
Rus?
– Livingston
Yeah?
– Rusty
Come look at this?
– Livingston
Sure.
– Rusty
You know what your problem is?
– Tess
I only have one?
– Danny
All right, you proved your point. You broke into my vault. Congratulations, you’re a dead man.
– Terry
There’s a ninety-five pound Chinese man with a hundred sixty million dollars behind this door.
– Danny
Let’s get him out.
– Linus
Yeah.
– Danny
I’m not sure what four nines does, but the ace, I think, is pretty high.
– Danny
They might as well call it whitejack!
– Frank
Tess is with Benedict now? She’s too tall for him!
– Saul
Where the fuck you been?
– Yen
Thirteen million and you drive this piece of shit cross country to pick me up?
– Danny
Blew it all on the suit.
– Rusty
I need the reason. Don’t say money. Why do this?
– Rusty
Why not do it?
– Danny
Because yesterday I walked out of the joint after losing four years of my life and you’re cold-decking “Teen Beat” cover boys.
– Danny
Because the house always wins. Play long enough, you never change the stakes, the house takes you. Unless, when that perfect hand comes along, you bet big, and then you take the house.
– Danny
Been practicing that speech, haven’t you?
– Rusty
Little bit. Did I rush it? Felt like I rushed it.
– Danny
No, it was good, I liked it. “Teen Beat” thing was harsh.
– Rusty
What? Did you guys get a group rate or something?
– Reuben
Ten says he shorts it.
– Turk Malloy
Twenty!
– Frank, Livingston, Saul
You gotta walk before you crawl.
– Danny
Reverse that.
– Rusty
Smash and grab job, huh?
– Linus
Slightly more complicated than that.
– Rusty
Well, yeah.
– Linus
Second task, power – on the night of the fight, we’re gonna throw the switch on Sin City. Basher, it’s your show.
– Danny
You want broke, blind, or bedlam?
– Basher
How about all three?
– Danny
Right, it’s done.
– Basher
Hit me.
– Shane West
It’s not blackjack.
– Rusty
We’ll need Saul.
– Danny
He won’t do it. He got out of the game a year ago.
– Rusty
Get religion?
– Danny
Ulcers.
– Rusty
…You could ask him.
– Danny
Hey, I could ask him.
– Rusty
You of all people should know, Terry, in your hotel, there’s always someone watching.
– Tess
