The Sky Diver (1961)

Larry Pennell: Ted McKeever

Quotes 

• Jim Buckley : Look, Ted, Chuck got a call from Sonora, Mexico. We got a job airlifting supplies into a mining party. It's urgent, it's immediate, and it pays money.

  Ted McKeever : Why didn't you say so?

• Henry Kruger : [fondling the long-range super geiger counter]  Tell your party it got smashed. I'll buy it from you. $500, okay? That's a fair price.

  Ted McKeever : It's no sale.

  Henry Kruger : Wait a minute, buddy. In your white suit and pretty black boots you're forgetting something. This ain't the States. You can't make a phone call for the law. The only law out here is what a man makes for himself .

  Ted McKeever : You figurin' on making some?

  Henry Kruger : I'm figurin' on taking that thing away from you.

  Ted McKeever : Take it and you can have it.

  [brawl ensues] 

• Ted McKeever , Jim Buckley : [singing to the tune of "Beautiful Dreamer"]  Beautiful streamer open for me / Blue sky above me and no canopy / Waited to open, waited too long / Reached for my ripcord, the darn thing was gone!
