Redbeard Quotes in The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc (1999)

[At Joan's insistence, a letter is fired by arrow over the British walls]

Joan of Arc: [voice-over] This is the third and last time I will write to you... If you are still here at noon, I warn you that you will hear from me to your very great destruction. Please give me your answer speedily.

Redbeard: [yells from the tower] Go fuck yourseves!

Joan of Arc: What did he say?

Aulon: He said he'd think about it.

[the English garrison are all bewildered to see the French, under Jeanne's direction, wheeling the siege tower towards the wall - backwards]

Redbeard: What the fuck is she playing at?

[From the inner keep, Buck sees the tower approaching, and starts to laugh]

Glasdale: Crazy bitch. She doesn't even know how to use it.

[as the tower nears the ditch, Buck stops laughing, realizing what's about to happen. The tower topples into the ditch... ]

Redbeard: Oh, my God!

[He turns and runs as the tower smashes down the drawbridge, throwing the outer wall wide open and forming a perfect bridge over the ditch]

Glasdale: FUCK! CLOSE THE DOORS!

Buck: [panicking] Close the doors!

Redbeard: Captain! Captain!

[the doors to the inner keep are shut, trapping Redbeard outside, as the French stream into the fortress]
