poet in a bar

"The Night Is Not Quiet" shows the concept that the police are not necessarily good people, the robbers are not necessarily bad people, and the derailment of old men and girls is not necessarily wretched.

The robber boss, the old doctor, could have escaped easily, but he was arrested after two or three minutes of delay in order to watch a young girl dancing in the tavern. This made him not only look upright and reliable, but even a poet at heart.

Dix, who is considered to be a rogue, is actually very strong, and he never forgets his hometown.

Emmrich, who cheated with the girl, will do anything for money, but when he is in danger, he is very calm and cultivated, so as to appease the frightened girl.

The movie does not punish evil and promote good, it even shows the rigidity and rigidity of the "good" of the police chief, who only knows right and wrong. And the world is so complicated and people are so rich and multifaceted.

The Asphalt Jungle quotes

  • Det. Andrews: [knocking repeatedly on Angela's door] Okay, miss. It's a shame to bust this door in, but here goes.

    Angela Phinlay: [Angela suddenly opens the door] Haven't you bothered me enough, you big banana head? Just try breaking my door, and Mr. Emmerich will have you thrown out of the house!

    Det. Andrews: Afraid not, miss. He's got troubles enough. As a matter of fact, he's a dead duck.

    Police Commissioner Hardy: [voice heard from off-screen] Hurry up, Andrews! Bring the young lady in here.

    Angela Phinlay: Do I have to talk to him? Couldn't I just talk to you?

    Det. Andrews: Come on, baby. Get it over with. And... be smart. Tell the Commissioner the truth. That's the only thing to do. Come on.

    [leads her out the door]

  • Police Commissioner Hardy: He left prison yesterday at 12 noon, took a train for this city, time of arrival, 3:17. All you had to do was stay with him for 24 hours. If he didn't register, lock him up. What happens? He loses you five blocks from the depot, and a dangerous criminal is at large in this city.

    Lt. Ditrich: Two men on that detail ought to get medals for dumbness.

    Police Commissioner Hardy: They were assigned by you. You should get one too.
