Quotes 

• Sgt. Lao Quan : Wait right here. Run now... and you'll be shot. Better to wait and become a POW. The Reds send POWs home.

  Chunsheng : So, no running?

  Sgt. Lao Quan : That's right. You want to go home, don't run.

  Xu Fugui : They won't shoot us?

  Sgt. Lao Quan : Not as long as you've got your hands up.

  Xu Fugui : How?

  Chunsheng : This will do the trick?

  Sgt. Lao Quan : Don't reach for your waist! Do that and you're dead. The Reds treat POWs well. I've been one before. Just put those hands up.

• Xu Fugui : You're the District Chief? It was you who killed my son? I had only one son, Chunsheng! I had only one son! And you killed him! You, behind the goddamn wheel!

  Town Chief : Don't be like that. The District Chief is upset, too.

  Chunsheng : How can I ever make it up? Take this for now. It's money. Tell me what else I can do.

  Xu Jiazhen : No one wants your money. I want my son. Give me back my son. You killed him! Give him back to me! Go away! Remember, you owe us a life. You killed him. Remember that. You killed him. Go away! Now!

  Town Chief : District Chief, let's go. I think you should go, Chief.

  Xu Fugui : Go away!

  Chunsheng : All right. I'm going. I owe you a life. I will remember.
