Dog Day Afternoon (1975) Sidney Lumet

- I'm robbing a bank because they got money here. That's why I'm robbing it. - No, what I mean is why do you feel you have to steal for money? Couldn't you get a job? - Doing what?

What do you mean non-union, like what? A bank teller? You know how much a bank teller makes a week? Not much. A hundred and fifteen to start, right? Now are you going to live on that? I got a wife and a couple of kids, how am I going to live on that? What do you make a week? - Well I'm here to talk to you Sonny... - Well I'm talking to you. We're entertainment, right? What do you got for us? - Well what do you want to get for it? Do you expect to be paid because... - No, I don't want to be paid, I don't need to be paid. Look, I'm here with my partner and nine other people, see. And we're dying, man. You know? You're going to see our brains on the sidewalk, they're going to spill our guts out. Now are you going to show that on television? Have all your housewives look at that? Instead of As The World Turns? I mean what do you got for me? I want something for that.
