Dial M for Murder Quote
C.A. Swan : Where's the nearest police station?
Tony Wendice : Opposite the church, two minutes walk.
C.A. Swan : Suppose I walk there now.
Tony Wendice : What would you tell them?
C.A. Swan : Everything.
Tony Wendice : Everything? All about "Mr. Adams" and "Mr. Wilson"?
C.A. Swan : I should simply tell them that you're trying to blackmail me into...
Tony Wendice : Into?
C.A. Swan : ...murdering your wife.
Tony Wendice : [ chuckles ] I almost wish you would. When she heard that we'd have the biggest laugh of our lives.
C.A. Swan : Aren't you forgetting something?
Tony Wendice : Am I?
C.A. Swan : You've told me quite a lot tonight.
Tony Wendice : So what of it?
C.A. Swan : Suppose I tell them how you followed her to that studio in Chelsea and watched them cooking spaghetti and all that rubbish. Wouldn't that ring a bell?
Tony Wendice : Oh, it certainly would. They'll assume that you followed her there yourself.
C.A. Swan : Me? Why should I?
Tony Wendice : Why should you steal her handbag? Why should you write her all those blackmail notes? Can you prove you didn't? You certainly can't prove I did. It will be a straight case of your word against mine.
