Thomas Crown

• A woman could trust me as long as her interests weren't too contrary to my own.

• Have you figured out what you're going to say to your board when they realize you paid me thirty million more than others were offering?

• Do you want to dance? Or do you want to dance?

Catherine Banning

• I saw him wreck a 100,000 dollar boat because he liked the splash.

• You think I'd believe you'd leave your hard stolen painting around a Caribbean hut?

• You're not boring, I'll give you that.

Dialogue

Thomas Crown: May I ask you a very personal question?

Catherine Banning: Why not.

Thomas Crown: Would you like another hit of espresso?

[Catherine looks confused.]

Thomas Crown: Would you..

Catherine Banning: ..like another hit of espresso, that's the very personal question?

Thomas Crown: That's as good as it gets.

Catherine Banning: Excuse me, may I ask you a very personal question?

Thomas Crown: Oh sure, by all means.

Catherine Banning: Do you really think I am going to sleep with the man I am investigating?

Thomas Crown: Is that the question?

Catherine Banning: Yes that's it.

Thomas Crown: Now why should I answer your question when you didn't seriously commit to my espresso?

Catherine Banning: All right, then I'll seriously commit to your espresso.

Catherine Banning: What makes you think they failed? Maybe it was a successful robbery. Maybe they were setup to fail.

Detective McCann: Why?

Catherine Banning: Diversion, make a lot of noise over there so over here in this room you can take a hundred million off the wall and waltz right out the front door. Oh that's good.

Catherine Banning: You complimented me.

Thomas Crown: How?

Catherine Banning: They were bankers.

Thomas Crown: Who?

Catherine Banning: Who? The suits. You're transferring assets. Getting ready to run.

Thomas Crown: Suppose I did run. What would you have? Not the painting, not the five million dollar fee, and not me.

Catherine Banning: Yes.

Thomas Crown: Suppose I gave you ten.

Catherine Banning: To fail? How would I hide it?

Thomas Crown: I'd teach you.

Catherine Banning: You really think there's happily ever after for people like us?

Catherine Banning: That island isn't Manhattan.

Thomas Crown: It's not?

Catherine Banning: I have appointments.

Thomas Crown: Wanna keep 'em?

Catherine Banning: Oh! This must go over!

Thomas Crown: With whom?

Catherine Banning: Whoever you bring here.

Thomas Crown: I never bring anyone here.
