Escape to Tampico (1958)

Louis Mercier: Raoul Gireaux

Quotes 

• [Maverick is astounded when the Gireauxs offer him six thousand dollars to pursuade a man wanted for murder to return from Mexico] 

  Raoul Gireaux : There's no mistake. We have a mutual friend, Monsieur Carpentier. He advised us on your qualifications.

  Bret Maverick : My qualifications?

  Raoul Gireaux : A man of imagination, but realistic. A man of personal freedom, but responsible. And most important, a man of expensive tastes, but bankrupt. That is why we want you.

• [Raoul gave Bret a thousand dollar bill just to listen to his proposition] 

  Bret Maverick : You said I could keep this even if I refuse?

  Raoul Gireaux : Yes.

  Bret Maverick : In that case, how can I refuse.
