 Francesca Annis QuotationMovie Title: Macbeth (1971) as Lady Macbeth: Lady Macbeth : Look like the innocent flower but be the serpent under't. Lady Macbeth : Things without all remedy should be without regard. What's done is done. Lady Macbeth : Out, damned spot! Out I say! Lady Macbeth : And all the perfumes of Arabia could not sweeten this little hand! Oh, oh, oh! Movie Title: Lillie (1978) as Lillie Langtry: [Oscar Wilde is carrying a lily.] Oscar Wilde : I could only afford one bloom, and I told them it had to be the most perfect in all Covent Garden, as it was for you. Lillie Langtry : And you carried all the way here? Oscar Wilde : All the way on foot, and I hate walking. It was like a royal progress. As I passed down the Strand, I heard one pompous gentleman say loudly enough for all to hear, "There goes that bloody fool, Oscar Wilde." I bowed to him and said, "I am carrying this to Mrs. Langtry. Would you not gladly exchange places?" Lillie Langtry : [laughing] One day they'll send a doctor to certify you. Oscar Wilde : The only thing certifiable about me is my genius. Oscar Wilde : The truth is that I really do love you, yet it is the curse of my nature that I can desire but not possess beauty. It must always be just out of reach. I've wept for you and for myself. Lillie Langtry : If you let me, I would show you I'm more real than the goddess you imagine. Oscar Wilde : That is the one truth that I am frightened of. Movie Title: Krull (1983) as Lyssa Widow of the Web: Ynyr : I cannot stop the sand. Lyssa Widow of the Web : You cannot stop time. Go now. Save the other Lyssa. Lyssa Widow of the Web : These are the sands of my life. Except them and the spider will have no power to harm you. But your own life runs out with the sand. Ynyr : But what about your life? Lyssa Widow of the Web : I give it to the girl who bears my name. Movie Title: Wives and Daughters (1999) as Claire Gibson: Cynthia Kirkpatrick : In short, Mama, the one man may steal a horse - the other musn't look over the hedge? Claire Gibson : Oh, do be quiet child! All proverbs are vulgar, and I do believe that is the vulgarist of them all! I really think you're catching Roger Hamley's coarseness, Cynthia. Claire Gibson : I'm sure you will acknowledge that an engagement is an engagement. Squire Hamley : Did I say an engagement was an elephant ma'am? Claire Gibson : Don't be angry dear, for a minute there I thought you were going to lose your temper. Mr. Gibson : It would have been of no use. Claire Gibson : Riches are a great snare you know. Mr. Gibson : Be thankful you're spared temptation, my dear. Claire Gibson : I can't help but think it was such a pity I was born when I was. I should like to belong to this generation. Movie Title: Reckless (1997) as Anna Fairley: [On the phone] Anna Fairley : It's me. Owen Springer : Who's me? Anna Fairley : How many "me's" do you know? Owen Springer : That's beer and marmite. You eat the toast, weep the beer. It gives a kind of yeasty taste. Anna Fairley : That's disgusting! Anna Fairley : You come to this age and you think everything's clear. And suddenly it's not. Suddenly it's just not. Arnold Springer : How old are you? Anna Fairley : Not forty anymore. Anna Fairley : Did Arnold tell you what we've been talking about? Owen Springer : I even offered him money. He said it was classified. [PAUSE] Owen Springer : What did you talk about? Anna Fairley : It's classified. Richard Crane : The decorators came this morning. Anna Fairley : Good. Richard Crane : I don't know what they're doing there. Anna Fairley : I'm putting the house on the market. Richard Crane : You can't do that! Anna Fairley : Yes I can. You took a share in my company, I took over the mortgage. October 1993. Richard Crane : Don't you put your company on the line then? Anna Fairley : Oh absolutely, but I can live with that. You started those games. [On their adultery] Anna Fairley : I've tasted what you've tasted, Richard. I understand absolutey how confused you are. |
