When Nick discovers that he killed the cop, he decides to use Peggy's apartment as hideout to wait the police manhunt cool down.

She's there. She hurt herself.

- What do you have?

- I'm going.

It was an accident.

It's you! I will kill you!

I will kill you, dirty coward!

Gently, little.

It's a child.

Go ahead. Do what you want.

You big coward!

Tom, stop!

Coward, I'll kill you...

Good evening, Mr. Dobbs.

Your lady is fine?

I did not see her.

She is fine.

Dad...

Tommy!

What is going on? Tell me.

Do you go?

- And your mother?

- I'm going.

What are you doing here?

He sent me shopping.

I do not want to go back.

It must.

Because he said it?

You do everything he says.

It's him, the boss.

That's nice, is not it?

And alcohol?

I gave you the money.

They did not let me take it away.

To the soup!

Get there.

Atable, grandpa.

Sit.

The coffee can wait.

Peg not come in?

She had to work late.

Nice feast, huh?

It is Nick Robey who regales.

Your belly will be

as big as your eyes?

It was not worth cooking.

Look at this turkey!

What's this?

Our dinner.

And all that?

It's yours.

I bought this for all of us.

Take some turkey.

I like stew.

I got it.

But you will eat my dinner.

We can not force

people to everything.

I'm listening to you, grandpa.

Every human being has limits

that he refuses to cross

and no one can force

him, even with a weapon.

Even if his life is threatened.

People are so.

That's what they

say in the books,

but it's wrong.

You will eat my dinner.

Eat or chill one of you.

You will not do that.

I will not hesitate

to poke your head.

You will not kill us for

such a stupid reason.

At the slightest detonation, the

neighbors will alert the police.

Shoot even in the

air, and you're done.

It's not worth it.

Pass me the butter, Tommy.

You forget one thing, grandpa.

Few people can identify

a bullet detonation.

Possible.

But when you play your life,

it changes everything.

That is true.

But I take the risk.

Cut the turkey.

Cut it out!

I beg you, Fred.

Mrs,

f*** me this garbage stew.

And bring clean plates.

- Who is here?

- I'm coming to deliver alcohol.

You have not heard a detonation?

My faith, no.

Surely an exhaust pipe.

Let's eat.

It's funny.

I just asked you

a stash for two or three days.

You would do it for a cat.

What do you want?

I can not sleep there.

I want my bed.

Do what you are told.

Peg will be furious if

she finds me there.

Go to sleep.

- Where you go?

- I am thirsty.

He can not do anything.

Do not worry.

Listen.

Where is Peg?

Or?

Why did not she come back?

She has an interest in arriving.

Come on, mom,

rest.

Where you were?

- Or?

- At a friend's house.

- The guy is not up?

- I was with a friend.

That's it!

You had to give me an answer.

Your mother did not want to know anything.

Dalton Trumbo

James Dalton Trumbo (December 9, 1905 – September 10, 1976) was an American screenwriter and novelist who scripted many award-winning films including Roman Holiday, Exodus, Spartacus, and Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo. One of the Hollywood Ten, he refused to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) in 1947 during the committee's investigation of communist influences in the motion picture industry. He, along with the other members of the Hollywood Ten and hundreds of other industry professionals, was subsequently blacklisted by that industry. His talents as one of the top screenwriters allowed him to continue working clandestinely, producing work under other authors' names or pseudonyms. His uncredited work won two Academy Awards: for Roman Holiday (1953), which was given to a front writer, and for The Brave One (1956) which was awarded to a pseudonym of Trumbo's. When he was given public screen credit for both Exodus and Spartacus in 1960, this marked the beginning of the end of the Hollywood Blacklist for Trumbo and other screenwriters. He finally was given full credit by the Writers' Guild for all his achievements, the work of which encompassed six decades of screenwriting. more…
