STAFF SGT. DIGNAM
"Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe fuck yourself."
 |
| Mark Wahlberg as Dignam from The Departed. |
Staff Sgt. Dignam. The man
swears like a sailor, he spends hours coming up with cutting and petty insults, and he has absolutely no mercy filter on his sharp tongue. Indiscriminately and randomly he attacks every single person who rubs him the wrong way. Doesn't matter if they're a senior officer, an extremely dangerous mobster, or
Leonardo Dicaprio. And yet despite the fact that this man is a Grade A Asshole, he has his righteousness and his loyalty, and from that he won't back down.
The Departed (2006) is a movie of epic proportions in itself, great movie, great plot, great characters, and yet still, Dignam steals the show completely. Now all I can do is sit back and wait for
Departed Thunder (20??), in which Dignam and
Les Grossman engage in a full out tongue-lashing epic battle of the wits. But between you and me, my bet's on Dignam.
Best moment: His last scene in the movie. Hands down.

| Dignam revs up for a bitchslap. |
Because he's so fucking quotable:Police Camera Tech: Who the fuck are you?
Dignam: I'm the guy who does his job. You must be the other guy.
Dignam: My theory on Feds is that they're like mushrooms, feed 'em shit and keep 'em in the dark.
Lazio: Do you have anyone in with Costello presently?
Dignam: Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe fuck yourself.
Ellerby: Go fuck yourself.
Dignam: I'm tired from fucking your wife.
Ellerby: How is your mother?
Dignam: Good, she's tired from fucking my father.
