2.  What movie is this quote from?

No! You stay alive! If they don't kill you, they'll take you north up to the Huron lands. Submit, do you hear? You're strong! You survive! You stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you! No matter how long it takes, no matter how far. I will find you!

3.  What movie is this?

It is a movie about the Irish Republican Army set in Dublin in 1922.  It won John Ford his first Oscar for Best Director.  It was based on the novel by Liam O’Flaherty.  It was released in 1935 and although not a box office hit, it was critically acclaimed.  It was nominated for Best Picture (losing to “Mutiny on the Bounty”).  It won for Actor (Victor McLaglen), Screenplay (Dudley Nichols), Score (Max Steiner), and Director.  The studio did not want to make the picture because of its depressing nature.  When the execs were convinced that Ford was worth the risk, they insisted that he stay under a $250,000 budget.  Ford gave up his salary, shot the film in 17 days and brought it in around $243,000.
