The Irishman2019
Russell Bufalino:
You don't need money, do you?
Jimmy Hoffa:
It's not about money.
Russell Bufalino:
Well, if it's not about money, then I'm really having trouble understanding, because I don't know what all the talk is about?
Jimmy Hoffa:
It's my union. Is that hard to understand?
Russell Bufalino:
No, no. It's your union, that's right. It'll always be your union. You could step down and still run it...
Jimmy Hoffa:
No, you don't step down.
Russell Bufalino:
What do you mean?
Jimmy Hoffa:
Russ, you don't step down to run a union. You step down to go to your grave.
Russell Bufalino:
Well, listen. I still think... I can't help but think, I'm sorry, but is there another reason or something?
Jimmy Hoffa:
This is my union! What do you mean another reason?! [short pause] This is my union! All right, let's start with that! And then try to understand things!
Russell Bufalino:
Listen, some people, not me. But some people, they're a little concerned. Some people, not me. They think that you might...
Jimmy Hoffa:
I might...
Russell Bufalino:
You might be demonstrating a failure to show appreciation.
Jimmy Hoffa:
[short pause] I'm not showing appreciation?
Russell Bufalino:
According to, you know, some people...
Jimmy Hoffa:
I went to school for five f***ing years.
Russell Bufalino:
Yes, you did.
Jimmy Hoffa:
Five f***ing years! I didn't name one f***ing name!
Russell Bufalino:
You did the right thing.
Jimmy Hoffa:
I did the right thing.
Russell Bufalino:
You did the right thing.
Jimmy Hoffa:
[pointing to Tony Pro] Sat there everyday with that whining cocksucker from New Jersey, talking to me about his woes, his problems, and all I wanted to do was finish my ice cream in peace. This cocksucker shows up at a meeting! Fifteen minutes late! Wearing f***ing shorts! Who wears shorts to a meeting?
Russell Bufalino:
Nobody.
Jimmy Hoffa:
That's right.
Russell Bufalino:
Nobody.
Jimmy Hoffa:
I'm not showing appreciation.
Russell Bufalino:
It's not me. According to some people.
Jimmy Hoffa:
No, I know it's not you! Some people, some people say I'm not showing appreciation. Well, then f*** them.
Russell Bufalino:
I'm trying to help you, Jim.
Jimmy Hoffa:
I know you are. But nobody threatens Hoffa.
