Prizzi's Honor movie plot

2022-10-03 18:57
The Pulitzer family is a cruel and violent family. The standard of their honor is to trample on the law and break the bones of their opponents. Charlie Paterna ( Jack Nicholson ) is a killer in this family, but he doesn't agree with such honor standards, at least in his mind he thinks so.
At the wedding of a family member, he rejected Menos Pulitzer ( Anjelica Huston ), who had long admired him, because he met the beautiful Irene Walker ( Kathleen Turner ). Irene is a tax consultant in public. In fact, she is also a professional killer like Charlie. Because of this, she fell in love with Charlie. But when Irene betrayed the Pulitzer family, Charlie found that he was in a dilemma, whether to kill her or marry her?

Prizzi's Honor quotes

  • Charley Partanna: Do I ice her? Do I marry her?

  • [Charlie is telling Maerose about Irene]

    Charley Partanna: I met her in a church. It just happened. I knew she was the woman for me. She'd organized the scam in Vegas. I go looking for the bad guy and it turns out to be my woman, can you imagine this? Not only that - Pop tells me she's the piece man for the Nettabino contract. Just the same, I love her, Mae... I love her.

    Maerose Prizzi: Well...

    Charley Partanna: How can I live with this? I gotta do something about it. I gotta straighten it out.

    Maerose Prizzi: Then do.

    Charley Partanna: Do what? Do I ice her? Do I marry her? Which one of these?

    Maerose Prizzi: Marry her, Charley. Just because she's a thief and a hitter doesn't mean she's not a good woman in all the other departments. If she was some kind of fashion model, well it wouldn't last more than thirty days. But you and she is in the same line of business. You are lucky you found each other, you know that, Charley?

    Charley Partanna: Yeah, I guess.

    Maerose Prizzi: She's an American! She had a chance to make a buck so she grabbed it. Marry her, Charley. Then at least I'll be able to get something out of it... I'll be able to go back in the family.

    Charley Partanna: Yeah.
