Down by Law movie plot

2021-12-23 08:01
Jack and Zac are two gangsters of New Orleans . One of them doesn’t know what to do, and the other simply has no ambitions. So they just mess around every day, and their girlfriends always complain, Zach’s. His wife kicked him out unbearably. Jack started pimping under the lobbying of his buddies and girlfriends, but due to his lack of experience, he was quickly framed and sent to prison. And Zac, who was driven out of the house by his wife, was also deceived by his friends. For money, he drove a car with a corpse in the trunk to swagger through the city, and followed him into Jack's prison.
The two people were frowning and irritable all day in prison. At first they were able to chat, but soon they started to fight for nothing. One day, they added another friend to their cell-the funny Italian traveler Bob. Bob's arrival brought joy to the boring prison life of Jack and Zach. His almost innocent behavior and foreigners' funny talk made the prison laugh. Bob is optimistic by nature, and with his encouragement, the other two men also began to consider the issue of freedom.

Down by Law quotes

  • Laurette: [to Zack] Because you... because you don't take care of me... ya don't want me... ya don't wanna make any fucking commitment to me... I'VE *FINISHED* WITH YOU, ZACK! I've completely *finished* with you! Why doncha just go find some other li'l girl... I mean... that shouldn't be too difficult for you! I'm FED UP with you and YOUR FUCKIN' STUPID RADIO SHOWS!

  • Preston: Zack ! Hey man ! What the fuck ya doin' here in the garbage ?

    Zack: [without looking at Preston] Just leave me alone, Preston. I'm in a bad mood.

    Preston: Then I'm just the man you've been looking for. In fact, I've been looking for you.

    Zack: That's a bad sign.

    Preston: Now, Zack , baby ! I got somethin' real good for you. An hour's work for a whole lotta scratch.

    Zack: I ain't interested.

    Preston: Then you ARE in a bad mood. You won't even let me propose it to you ! Can you just listen to me for one minute, will ya ? One minute of your, uh... valuable time ?

    Zack: [sighs in exasperation] Just fuck off, Preston.

    Preston: [chuckles and acts like he's going to walk away from him, but then goes back to him] All I wanna do is pay you a grand, in exchange of a single hour of your very very valuable time. But this ain't no break in, no delivery of controlled substances, none of this stuff. It's just to drive a car, from one part of town to another, alone. That's it.

    Zack: What kind of car will that be, Preston ?

    Preston: That will be a very nice car. A very nice, very expensive imported car, which just happens to be in between owners at the present time.

    Zack: [mutters to himself]

    Preston: Look man, all you gotta do is drive the car across town, park it, leave it. I can pay half grand upfront, and the other half later. The whole thing's over in an hour! It's very safe, very clean, and believe me, i can get a million guys to do this for me.

    Zack: Then why don't you do it yourself ?

    Preston: I'm offerin' a grand so I don't have to answer stupid questions like that.

    Zack: Well... I might consider the grand upfront... then I might think about it.

    Preston: Jesus !

    [a pause]

    Preston: Zack... you are in a nasty mood. So just to cheer you up a little bit, I give you 750 upfront. OK ?

    [Zack rises to leave him on the spot but he holds him back]

    Preston: Alright, alright, Mr. All-Mighty-Hot-Shit. I'm gonna do you this favour.

    [he gives Zack the keys of the car]

    Zack: [impressed, but still muttering to himself] Oh man ! A Jaguar !

    Preston: I'll give you the whole thing upfront

    [he gives Zack the money]

    Preston: Now you owe me.

    [long pause]

    Preston: Zack, you know you can buy yourself twenty girls for all of that ?
