I’m just trying to find out if anybody in this room knows what the hell law is being broken, besides cruelty to animals!”

I may be wrong (I probably am!) but this quote is from the third movie (The Enforcer) in the series while the OP and first reply is from the second (Magnum Force).

This scenario and question Harry asks in the interview process is awesome! Of course Harry has many memorable quotes in all of these movies.

You're not wrong. But it is easy to have some of these run together in memory. I am just proud that anyone recognized such an arcane, off the wall quote from any of these early to mid seventies movies.

The Nerd-dom ran strong with me as a kid re: a lot of things, including “Dirty Harry” movies. When the original, “Magnum Force,” or “The Enforcer” aired, I sit by the TV with with a cassette recorder and spare tapes at the ready. Record the whole movie from start to finish. And listen to it all about a zillion times over.

All that to say, yes, I knew the opening line of this thread straight-away haha…

As I ponder it, I see that The Nerd indeed abides with me yet! Smile

Hypothetical situation, huh? All right, I'm standing on the street corner, and Mrs. Grey there comes up and propositions me. She says if I come home with her, for $5 she'll put on an exhibition with a Shetland pony...

The Mayor: Callahan... I don't want any more trouble like you had last year in the Fillmore district. You understand? That's my policy.

Harry Callahan: Yeah, well, when an adult male is chasing a female with intent to commit rape, I shoot the bastard - that's my policy.

The Mayor: Intent? How'd you establish that?

Harry Callahan: When a naked man is chasing a woman through a dark alley with a butcher knife and a hard on, I figure he isn't out collecting for the Red Cross.


The Mayor: I think he's got a point.

Tell you something. If the rest of you could shoot like them, I wouldn't care if the whole damn department was queer.

Suicide Jumper: Don't you try to get me!

Harry Callahan: Not me, no. You're the one who wants to get yourself killed. Not me. That always happens with you men, you know? At the last minute, you wanna grab on to something or take somebody with you, but down you go. Not me, brother.

Suicide Jumper: Aren't you gonna try to grab me?

Harry Callahan: A friend of mine was up about 20 floors with a jumper a few years ago. The jumper grabbed him, they went off, 20 floors down. Just mashed 'em all to bits. You couldn't tell which legs were which, you couldn't tell which arms were which, it was a terrible mess. And I'll tell ya, I almost threw up myself. I'd just like your name and address, that's all.

Suicide Jumper: Why?

Harry Callahan: Well like I said, it's such a mess down there afterwards. And it makes identification impossible, even if they do find your driver's license in all that blood and everything.

Suicide Jumper: I think... I think I'm gonna puke!

Harry Callahan: Aw, don't do that, son. I mean all those people down there looking up? The fire chief looking up, his face?

So which movie are we quoting? Happy to produce obscure quotes from the first 4-

“Get the hell out of the way, hammerhead”

“May I make a suggestion?”

“I may have to move fast and I don’t need too much linguini to hold me back”

“He lost his balls. He got killed”

Co-Pilot: Excuse me, Captain. This may seem silly, but - can you fly?

Callahan: Nope. Never even had a lesson.
