Werner Herzog and Bruno S. in La ballade de Bruno (1977)

Quotes

La ballade de Bruno

Edit
  • [last lines]
  • Deputy Sheriff: We have a 10-80 out here, a truck on fire, we have a man on the lift. We are unable to find the switch to turn the lift off, can't stop the dancing chickens. Send an electrician, we're standing by.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: We're in America now. I thought that in America everything would get better and that we would finally reach our goal. But no. Bruno is being chopped off as if he'd never existed. You wouldn't recognize me any more.
  • Eva: Bruno, nobody kicks you here.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: No, not in that way. Not visibly. But they do it mentally.
  • Eva: Well, taking a boat to New York and Florida... Isn't there a park there? What's it called? Where the bears run around free?
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: That's the Grizzlies.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: Right when a person is writhing in pain, it hurts so bad. And that pain is a spiritiual pain, it's deep inside.
  • Bank employee: We want to help; but, frankly, we need - the money.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: Stroszek! First name, Bruno. Five foot six. Eye color, brown. Oval.
  • Eva: Where have you been, Bruno?
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: I was on holiday.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: I'm starting a new life today.
  • Eva: If you want something, you're never too old.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: I imagined that things would be different in America. I thought I'd get rich quick through my work.
  • Eva: Stop it, Bruno. I'm really fed up with this subject. As I've said before, everyone can make money in America. It's no problem at all. I'll manage, you'll see.
  • Eva: Well, what have you got in mind?
  • Trucker Pimp: Oh, I thought maybe we could go out and have a drink and dance a little bit and have some fun and then come back down to the tractor and talk on the CB radio and listen to some music and whatever.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: Who knows what fate has in store for you?
  • Eva: What? I didn't understand that.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: Yes, that's right. Who knows what fate has in store fo you?
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: The prison doors are open. We're no longer in Germany. Over here, you have to be careful.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: When people are despised - I mean when they're grown-up and they long for love and they're banished from the bedroom. He's not supposed to sleep with you any more.
  • Eva: Yes, but look...
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: He has to sleep in a separate room - like somebody in a cage.
  • Eva: Bruno, listen to me. Look, I need to be alone once in a while.
  • Der Bruno Stroszek: Bruno was so stupid, stupid, stupid to have done this in the first place, to have come to America, where my whole world is collapsing again. I might as well have stayed where I came from. No. No. No. I'm really pessimistic about all this.
  • Trucker Pimp: Say, I got something I want you to see. I want to give you a shot at a foxy beaver back here.
