Vince Rizzo Quotes in City Island (2009)

Vince Rizzo: Did you sleep outside last night?

Vince Jr.: No, no, no. I did heroin with a bunch of prostitutes at the Plaza Hotel. I'm thinking of becoming a pimp.

Vince Rizzo: Good. I'll see you later.

Tony: Can I ask you, like, why I'm chained to a Ford?

Vince Rizzo: I'm gonna unchain you, Tony, but first I gotta tell you something. You see this house here? That's my home. My grandfather built this home and I share it with my family.

Tony: Oh, you got them chained up in the house too?

Vince Rizzo: You're gonna get real nice food and a real nice place to live for the first time in 3 years, so you better behave yourself.

Tony: And all this because you knew my bitch mother?

Vince Rizzo: Well, I gotta admit, you know, Nan could be difficult sometimes. But... she was also...

Tony: A drunk and a whore.

Vince Rizzo: Why do you call her that?

Tony: She used to punish me for not boosting cases of vodka from the liquor store I worked at, by screwing my friends. Which base does 'drunk' and 'whore' not cover?

Vince Rizzo: Don't you have any fond memories of her?

Tony: Well, at least she was around. My father left before I was born.

Vince Rizzo: [pauses] What do you know about him?

Tony: He's dead.

Vince Rizzo: That's too bad.

Tony: Eh, the only thing that's too bad, is I didn't get a chance to visit his deathbed and dance in his ugly face for leaving me with that bitch.

Vince Rizzo: Okay, let's go.
