Alberto: Are you interested in hearing about these robberies or are you just gonna sit there and let the Alzheimer’s run its course?

Probably the best line in any movie I've seen in the past few months...and I see about 20 movies a month.

Liked this one too :

Sheriff Marcus Hamilton: "That looks like a man who can foreclose on a house"

I don't remember the exact line, but one of the locals says something like,
"I'm gonna gut him and strap him to my hood."

Marcus replies, "I can't let you do that."

I like the one where the guy says if he found them he would hang them in a tree from a short rope and Jeff Bridges says then you would be up on murder charges and the guy says "that's if you could find the tree"

[–] Professor59 8 years ago

Actual line: "Well that would simplify things for everyone, except you."
Then, "That's if you can find the tree."

I liked the exchange at the end where they invite one another in order to put each other to peace.

I like the Ranger back and forth at the hotel.

Yeah. But I ain't stupid.

I liked when Bridges and his partner were stopped by the cattle street crossing, and the cowboy wrangler goes, "21st century and I'm out here with a horse herding cattle. And I wonder why my kids don't want any part of this?" I just started laughing. So true.

That cowboy wrangler was Taylor Sheridan, the movie's screenwriter.
