Mine has to be for some strange reason when aitch says 'Don, the steak was enourmas, size of it couldn't finish it' and also 'Handsome *beep* weren't he? Bloody Adonis!' Both these lines make me wet myslef with laughter and I'm not quite sure! But then again I mental.
Myriad of funny and vulgar lines, but the one that absolutely killed me was when Gal was on the phone and said, "Say my name."in that pained, vulnerable, confidential way.
...........Hate is the essence of weakness in the human mind...........
Mine has got to be when he is smoking on the plane and the guy sat behind him asks him to put his cigarrette out "Whats that Sancho! you want me to stub this out on your eyeball"
Some of the best lines are already mentioned here, particularly the "I'm a good listener" speech. But for me it has to be-
"What? Your just going to stand there? Your just going to stand there like Porky Pig?"
"I find this astonishing your amazing this is astounding. Repeat."
"You'll be there, YOUR MR ROUNDTREE!" "No!" "YES ROUNDTREE!" "No!" "YES GROVESNOR!"
And in a non-Don related line "stare at the back of your own fvcking head".
Oh and last but not least after Don has flipped out at Gal's implication that he only came to Spain for Jackie
"It's not what your Saying! It what's your not saying! insinuendos! You really demonstrating some whopping great ego, my friend! I'd keep that in check if I were you because that sort of big headedness CAN BE A RIGHT TURN OFF!! (I love the idea of Don advising someone on how to behave in social situations)
Starts kicking the kitchen
"FVCKING HELL FVCKING HELL!! I'd like to leave, now. Call me a taxi."
"I used to work in an office. When I was seventeen. Does that surprise you?"
"What, that you were seventeen?"
"They still meet up every Tuesday just off the Old Kent Road. The Wednesday wank they call it."
"You hunking spunk-bubble."
I can't remember the dialogue now, but the scene at the end in which Aitch is talking about monkeys with the Beatles haircut has me in stitches. "... and, apparently, they're very happy with it."
When Teddy is questioning Gal in the "Where's Don, Gal?" exchange, Gal just blurts out "I'm not into this no more, Ted". I think his character is summarised in that line.
By the time Sexy Beast came out I had been a fan of Ray Winstone for several years. I first saw him in Ladybird, Ladybird at the Chicago Film Festival in the early 90s. His talent for playing tough and troubled men was well established. Sexy Beast called for a different kind of tough guy: not a raging mad man like Don Logan, or a quieter, more disturbing tough guy like Teddy Bess, but a retired criminal who has found and won the heart of the love of his life. He is a man of honor who did his time without ratting out his partners in crime. His role, while not as flashy as Ben Kingsly's nor as menacing as Ian McShane's, calls for deeper complexity. Mr. Winstone succeeds with flying colors. There are so many wonderful moments of perfection in his portrayal that I am still entertained and impressed after many, many viewings of this wonderful film.
