Quotes
Anne Osborne:
[Anne and Remy are on the scene of a triple murder]
Why don't you believe that the killers were cops?
Remy McSwain:
Because if they were cops, they would've stayed right here. And when we arrived, we would've found plants, guns, knives, all kinds of evidence that they resisted arrest. That's somethin' every cop in the world knows how to do.
Anne Osborne:
That sure doesn't surprise me.
Remy McSwain:

[smiles wickedly]
Remy McSwain:

STEAMY...SEXY...SLEAZY... This is a film where you can see a genuine sexual chemistry between two actors. Unlike Mr Soderburgh's highly over-rated Out Of Sight, which was surrounded by a great bally-hoo about it's steamy love scenes, which weren't quite convincing to most of us watching, Big Easy actually delivers the goods. Oh yes!
Watch it! Need I say more?
