Chinatown

1:00:00

- Financially speaking, of course.

1:00:03

What are you charging her?

1:00:07

My usual fee,
plus a bonus if I get results.

1:00:11

Are you sleeping with her?

1:00:15

You have to think about that
to remember?

1:00:21

If you want an answer to that question,
I'll put one of my men on the job.

1:00:28

- Good afternoon.
- Mr Gittes...

1:00:32

She's just lost her husband.
I don't want her taken advantage of.

1:00:37

- Sit down.
- What for?

1:00:42

You may think you know what you're
dealing with, but believe me, you don't.

1:00:48

- Why is that funny?
- The DA used to say that in Chinatown.

1:00:53

Was he right?

1:00:56

Exactly what do you know about me?
Sit down.

1:01:04

You're rich, and too respectable
to want your name in the newspapers.

1:01:10

Of course I'm respectable. I'm old.

1:01:14

Politicians, ugly buildings and whores
get respectable if they last a long time.

1:01:19

I'll double your fee and pay you
$10,000 if you find Hollis's girlfriend.

1:01:25

- Girlfriend?
- Disappeared, hasn't she?

1:01:30

- Wouldn't it be useful to talk to her?
- Maybe.

1:01:35

If he was murdered,
she may be the last to see him alive.

1:01:40

When was the last time you saw him?

1:01:44

Sheriff's gold posse. Damn fools.

1:01:46

They paid $5,000 apiece
toward the sheriff's re-election.

1:01:50

I let them practice up here.

1:01:56

- Do you know when you last saw him?
- At my age you tend to forget.
