"American Narcotics" that doesn't write about drugs

Hello, Dad.
You know, I remember a lifetime ago
I was about three-and-a-half feet tall
weighing all of 60 pounds, but every inch your son.
Those Saturday mornings going to work with my dad
and we'd climb into that big green truck.
I thought that truck was the biggest truck in the universe, Pop.
I remember how important the job we did was.
How, if it weren't for us,
people would freeze to death.
I thought you were the strongest man in the world.

Remember those home movies when Mom would dress up like Loretta Young?
Ice creams and football games? Waino, the Tuna?
Day I left for California, only to come home with the FBI chasing me?
That FBI agent, Trout...
when he had to get on his knees to put my boots on, you said--
That's where you belong,
you son of a bitch.
Puttin' on Georgie's boots.
That was a good one, Dad .
That was really something.

You remember that?
And that time you told me that money wasn't real?
Well, old man, I'm 42 years old
and I finally realize...
what you were trying to tell me
so many years ago.
I finally understand.
You're the best, Dad.

I just wish I could've done more for you.
I wish we had more time.
Anyway...
"May the wind always be at your back
and the sun always upon your face
and the winds of destiny to carry you aloft to dance with the stars. "
- "Dance with the stars."

I love you, Dad.
Love, George.
No one can resist lines like this, movie Johnny Depp did it all by himself, and the rest of the embellishments are wonderful, he's a genius.

    120 minutes, I watched 100 minutes of dog blood, but the last 20 minutes were really good. . . Depp's acting is really good! !

Blow quotes

  • Judge: George Jung, you stand accused of possession of six hundred and sixty pounds of marijuana with intent to distribute. How do you plead?

    George: Your honor, I'd like to say a few words to the court if I may.

    Judge: Well, you're gonna have to stop slouching and stand up to address this court, sir.

    George: [stands] Alright. Well, in all honesty, I don't feel that what I've done is a crime. And I think it's illogical and irresponsible for you to sentence me to prison. Because, when you think about it, what did I really do? I crossed an imaginary line with a bunch of plants. I mean, you say I'm an outlaw, you say I'm a thief, but where's the Christmas dinner for the people on relief? Huh? You say you're looking for someone who's never weak but always strong, to gather flowers constantly whether you are right or wrong, someone to open each and every door, but it ain't me, babe, huh? No, no, no, it ain't me, babe. It ain't me you're looking for, babe. You follow?

    Judge: Yeah... Gosh, you know, your concepts are really interesting, Mister Jung.

    George: Thank you.

    Judge: Unfortunately for you, the line you crossed was real and the plants you brought with you were illegal, so your bail is twenty thousand dollars.

  • Prisoner in class: [to George] Jive ass turkey.
