The Two Jakes1990

The Two Jakes is a 1990 film about a private investigator looking into adultery and murder... and the money that comes from oil. It is the sequel to Chinatown. more »


Jake Gittes:
We're talkin' about oil here, right, Ty?

Tyrone Otley:
Obviously. Mr. Rawley believes there's oil under the subdivision. He's endangering hundreds of lives drilling under those homes, with all the seismic activity. He's whipstocking! Someone has got to stop him!

Jake Gittes:
Well, I can't do that, Ty. Nobody can. Guys like Rawley don't get arrested; they get streets named after them. In this type of situation, it's best just to leave it alone. Rawley's stealin' from Berman. It's a big thief stealin' from a little thief. Who are we to quarrel?
