Soldiers Three (1951)

Cyril Cusack: Private Dennis Malloy

Quotes 

• Officer : [upon having their feet inspected, an officer points at a coin-size mark on the bottom of Pvt. Sykes' foot]  What kind of a blister is that?

  Pvt. Bill Sykes : 'Tis a birthmark, sir.

  Officer : Hmm. Your mother must have been frightened by a banker.

  Pvt. Archibald Ackroyd : [after a moment Sykes tries to crawl away but Ackroyd and Malloy grab his foot and look at the mark]  A rupee - by all that's holy, hid away in his sock.

  Pvt. Dennis Malloy : [Malloy picks up the sock and digs out the rupee]  Not a rupee amongst us, you see...

  Pvt. Bill Sykes : But lads, I was only...

  Pvt. Archibald Ackroyd : I can understand selling out a friend for 20 bob, but a bloomin' rupee - that takes the lowest of the low.

  Pvt. Bill Sykes : [Malloy drops the rupee to the ground]  Hey...

  Pvt. Dennis Malloy : [Ackroyd wipes his hands off on his uniform and he and Malloy walk away]  G'day.
