Movie dialogue q: - 'He's in the boot'

You might be able to settle something that's been troubling me - I dimly remember a film or TV show (something like the Godfather or Sopranos-type show/film) that had the dialogue something like:

Interior car:

'Where is he?'
'He's in the boot'

Does this exist or did I dream it up? Yes looked on Google / movie quote sights / WAVlist etc.

I'd be interested in finding that or similar quotes...

Wouldn't it be 'trunk'? Or is this a gangster/Mother Hubbard crossover film?

There is some good trunk action early in Goodfellas, obviously, but not using those words.

Classic Sopranos episode "The Pine Barrens" also features a trunking interlude.

It's not Reservoir Dogs is it?

Actually, isn't it Jackie Brown?

yeah I'm looking for UK: boot rather than the US: trunk...so it probably was a UK or non-US gangster film (I said Sopranos / Godfather to say what type of film, not that it was a US-film...)

It definitely was 'boot'.

Can I ask why this is of interest to you? I assumed it was just bugging you, but then I saw that you also wanted similar quotes.

Well I remembered this quote - and thought hey - the internet is my friend and I'll find it in no time...nada, nuffink. It definitely was bugging me cos I dimly remembered it, and thought there at least must something similar if it was a figment of my muddled imagination.

I want to find a quote like that cos I'm running a remix project called 'Boot in 60 Seconds' - I'm DJing some of the tracks and wanted a nice short intro for them...I'm crap at remembering exactly where I heard stuff tho :-(
