The Fugitives (2001)

Joe Flaherty: Hooft

Quotes 

• Col. Staquait : Privates Hugo and Hooft, I hereby place you under arrest again. It's a shame you can only be executed once for your crimes.

  Jane Porter : Executed? What on Earth for?

  Col. Staquait : The worst crime a soldier can commit, my dear: refusing to obey a direct order.

  Jane Porter : Insubordination? Is that so serious?

  Col. Staquait : It is, when I'm giving the order.

  Jane Porter : And what was the order?

  Hugo : Well, Staquait ordered us to burn down a village!

  Hooft : But we wouldn't do it!

  Hugo : No!

  Col. Staquait : When an officer gives an order, a soldier carries it out! He doesn't whine nonsense about women and children!

  [to Jane] 

  Col. Staquait : Now, if you will excuse us, these two have a date with the executioner.
