Django Unchained (2012)

Tom Wopat: U.S. Marshall Gill Tatum

Quotes 

• Dr. King Schultz : My name is Dr. King Schultz, and like yourself, Marshall, I am a servant of the court. The man lying dead in the dirt, who the good people of Daughtrey saw fit to elect as their sheriff, who went by the name of Bill Sharp, is actually a wanted outlaw by the name of Willard Peck, with a price on his head of 200 dollars. Now, that's 200 dollars, dead or alive.

  U.S. Marshall Gill Tatum : The hell you say!

  Dr. King Schultz : I'm aware this is probably disconcerting news. But I'm willing to wager this man was elected sheriff sometime in the last two years. I know this because three years ago, he was rustling cattle from the B.C. Corrigan Cattle Company of Lubbock, Texas. Now, this is a warrant, made out by circuit court Judge Henry Allen Laudermilk of Austin Texas. You're encouraged to wire him. He'll back up who I am, and who your dear departed sheriff was. In other words Marshall... you owe me 200 dollars.

  Django : I'll be damned!

• U.S. Marshall Gill Tatum : [the Marshall has arrived to confront Dr Schultz]  This is U.S. Marshall Gill Tatum.

  Dr. King Schultz : Wunderbar, Marshall! I have relieved myself of all weapons, and just as you have instructed, I am ready to step outside, with my hands raised above my head. I trust, as a representative of the criminal justice system of The United States of America, I shan't be shot down in the street, by either you or your deputies, before I've had my day in court.

  U.S. Marshall Gill Tatum : You mean like you did our sheriff?

  Dr. King Schultz : Yes, that's exactly what I mean! Do I have your word as a lawman, not to shoot me down like a dog in the street?

  U.S. Marshall Gill Tatum : Well, as much as we'd all enjoy seein' somethin' like that, ain't nobody gonna cheat the hangman in my town.

  Dr. King Schultz : Fair enough Marshall, here we come!

  [to Django] 

  Dr. King Schultz : They're a little tense out there. So don't make any quick movements, and let me do the talking.

  U.S. Marshall Gill Tatum : Come ahead. You unarmed?

  Dr. King Schultz : Yes indeed we are. Marshall Tatum, may I address you and your deputies, and apparently the entire town of Daughtrey, as to the incident that just occurred?

  U.S. Marshall Gill Tatum : Go on...

  Dr. King Schultz : My name is Dr. King Schultz, and like yourself, marshall, I am a servant of the court. The man lying dead in the dirt, who the good people of Daughtrey saw fit to elect as their sheriff, who went by the name of Bill Sharp, is actually a wanted outlaw by the name of Willard Peck, with a price on his head of two hundred dollars. Now, that's two hundred dollars, dead or alive.
