A Lion Is in the Streets1953
Hank Martin:
[Angrily] Castleberry, there's a disease called Pellegra. You ever hear how it's ommunicated?
Verity Wade:
Hank, we were talkin' about the house...
Hank Martin:
It's communicated by not gettin' enough to eat, and it's very common in counties where your cotton gins are. [to Jules] Jules, I'm very sorry. I don't mean any offense to you, but my wife and I can't eat where a man what's been committin' pellegra.
Jules Bolduc:
Well, I don't...
Robert L. Castleberry IV:
I think I do. Would you mind explainin' your remark, sir?
Hank Martin:
Not at all. I'm callin' you a thief... a blood-suckin' thief!
Jules Bolduc:
Hank, that's enough. You know very well there's a state inspection board that takes care of them things.
Hank Martin:
What I wanna know is who inspects the inspectors?
Jules Bolduc:
Governor Charles Swindon inspects the inspectors. He's a self-made man just like you, and he's my friend... and he's honest, just like Robert Castleberry, who also happens to be my godfather.
Hank Martin:
Well, Jules, I never had no godfather, and I was almost too poor to have a father, so I must be poor, and you must be vey. very, right.
