    Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — The Friends of Eddie Coyle

    Anyone else notice that Foley ends just about every conversation this way? I'm pretty sure it's the last line in the movie, too. I got so I was listening for it. Very cynical, very dry. Richard Jordan plays this part so well. (Another quirky little thing I liked is that Peter Boyle's character, Dillon, doesn't drive.)

      I haven't been able to tell anybody to have a nice day ever since I saw this film way back when. Whenever anybody says it to me, I see Richard Jordan with his hands in his pockets, so sincerely insincere. This film has that kind of effect on you - I still can't go to a hockey game, either.

          Funny I think that phrase was unique to the film and not the book. Most of the time in the novel Foley would tell Eddie that he wasn't making him do anything (for the NH sentence).

            I just love how goddamn insincere Foley is whenever he says that line.
