Mr. Smith Goes to Washington1939
Genre: Drama
Rating: NOT RATED
Runtime: 129 minutes
James Taylor:
What did you mean "count me out"?
Joseph Paine:
You can't pull that steamroller stuff. Your methods won't do here. However it happened, this boy's a Senator. This is Washington, Jim!
James Taylor:
My steamroller methods don't go here? They've done pretty well by you.
Joseph Paine:
This boy is different. He's honest. He thinks the world of me. We can't do this to him!
James Taylor:
Should I just stand around and let that drooling infant wrap that Willet Creek dam appropriation around my neck? Not me. Either he falls in line or I'll break him so open they won't find the pieces.
Joseph Paine:
Jim, I won't stand for it.
James Taylor:
You won't stand for it?
Joseph Paine:
I don't want any part of crucifying this boy.
James Taylor:
Our steamroller methods are getting too hard for your sensitive soul? The Silver Knight is getting too big for us. My methods have been all right for the past twenty years. Since I picked you out of a hole in the wall and blew you up to look like a senator. And now you can't stand it. Maybe you don't have to. You and the boy ranger can go home together.
Joseph Paine:
Jim, you don't have to...
James Taylor:
It's all right. Seems a shame to part company after all these years.
