Spoken with a thick southern accent by a character actor, no longer with us, who spoke one of the most memorable lines in a subsequent film:
Hermanos de mi alma, hermanos de my corazón
OK, had to cheat - "Brothers of my soul, brothers of my heart"? I was thinking music movies and trying to remember if anybody said something like that in
La Bamba, but no...
At any rate, in the process, I found an interesting review of
Harper that included the line "The film also isn’t helped by a plot that’s so convoluted and directionless The Big Sleep seems like a model of clarity by comparison"
How about something a little more low brow:
"We are wasting valueless time here"
