:05:05
I'll tell you something,
Mrs. Hamilton,
:05:07
take a look down there
at that pool of shite.
:05:10
I swear there's a needle
for every point of light.
:05:13
It's like some bloody,
rotting animal,
:05:17
lying in the field,
crawling with maggots.
:05:19
Drugs done that to Dublin,
Mrs. Hamilton.
:05:21
And you lot,
you bleeding journalists,
:05:25
you do nothing.
:05:26
Anyone with a drop of the
buccaneering spirit, like meself--
:05:31
Arts theft?
Bank robberies?
:05:33
--gets fingered as a drugs
baron.
:05:36
Well, bollocks.
:05:38
Drugs is for jungle bunnies
and wankers, generally, not me.
:05:42
I've never suggested
that it was.
:05:44
That's why you're here,
talking to me.
:05:46
No.
:05:47
We're here because
I connived with you
:05:49
to dump a cop
on the side of the road.
:05:52
So, let's hope what you have
to say is worth the aggravation.
:05:56
Three weeks you've been
hanging around me,
:05:58
like a fart in a phone box.
:06:03
What I want to know, Martin,
:06:05
you're not political,
you don't deal drugs,
:06:07
you're just a straightforward
criminal.
:06:09
Please, God.
:06:11
So why do the guards
follow your car?
:06:13
They can dole it out,
but they can't take it.
:06:17
I irritate them. That cheery
glow about the place--
:06:20
it's the rings,
I run around them.
:06:23
Tell me then, enlighten me.
:06:26
How does a man like you
get to be a man like you?
:06:29
I grew up in Crumlin.
:06:32
You grew up
in Borstal, Martin.
:06:35
For theft.
:06:37
Offaly. 1 965.
:06:41
Seems I'm doing
all the talking here.
:06:44
When I was eight years old,
I stole a bar of chocolate.
:06:49
I was eating it
and I got caught.
:06:51
Policeman kicked the shite
out of me.
:06:53
Told the judge I resisted,
the judge sent me to Borstal.
:06:57
H e said for three months,
but they forgot about that.
