《50 Million Frenchmen (1931)》Storyline
You caught Toots and me at a bad time.We were ready to bite anybody""s head off.Especially a certain blonde""s.Look, five of us, we come down here for the deep-sea fishing all the way from Milwaukee.More than a year, we""d been planning to come down here and fish our brains out.So what happens? One guy brings a blonde.And after we all swore up and down, no dames! But he""s gotta bring her, this guy.Well, if she isn""t drunk and crying, she""s got a hangover and arguing.One minute she gets sore at you and won""t talk to you at all.The next, she""s makin"" a play for you right in front of the guy! And he gets sore at us, mind you, not her.Delighted with her arrival, he called for his wife Cora (Dorothy Cumming), a tough pioneer woman, o welcome his cousin ("Cora! Letty""s come!"), but she was less than thrilled to greet Letty, as she was tending to the hree young children.We brought you here.It""s the truth.We lived in peace together.It was Semos.He""s the one who killed everybody." Attar believed Leo, telling Thade: "Everything I have believed is a lie.You and your family have betrayed us.I won""t help you anymore." Thade was incensed and fired the gun wildly, but to no avail - and eventually crouched huddled under the control panel.The Irishman hero/vagabond, strolling in the streets of New York City, tells the audience in his first line (with a wry, brogue accent), a flashback, that he has made a stupid fool of himself:When I start out to make a fool of myself, there""s very little can stop me.
