 Douglas Fairbanks Jr. Quotation"The trouble with Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. is that he likes everything he sees - and he sees everything." - Clemence Dane I was only saying to the Queen the other day how I hate name dropping... "I never tried to emulate my father. Anyone trying to do that would be a second-rate carbon copy." [speaking in 1990] "I suppose many people don't even know if I'm still alive - well, perhaps I'm not." Movie Title: The Prisoner of Zenda (1937) as Rupert of Hentzau: Rupert of Hentzau : I see you want to let the drawbridge down. I just killed a man for that. Rudolph Rassendyll : An unarmed man, of course. Rupert of Hentzau : Of course! Rupert of Hentzau : Someone once called fidelity a fading woman's greatest defense and a charming woman's greatest hypocracy. And you're very charming. And Michael's very busy and likely to be more so. Rupert of Hentzau : Touché, Rassendyll! I cannot get used to fighting furniture - where did you learn it? Rudolph Rassendyll : That all goes with the old school tie. Rudolph Rassendyll : Well, then, here's your last fencing lesson. Look out for your head. [during his sword fight with Rupert, Rudolph "retreats" towards the drawbridge's controls] Rupert of Hentzau : You'd be a sensation in a circus. I can't understand it. Where did you learn such roller skating? Rudolph Rassendyll : Coldstream Guards, my boy. Come on, now, when does the fencing lesson begin? Rupert of Hentzau : Stand still and fight, you coward! Rupert of Hentzau : Why don't you let me kill you quietly? Rudolph Rassendyll : Oh, a little noise adds a touch of cheer. You notice I'm getting closer to the drawbridge rope? Rupert of Hentzau : You're so fond of rope, it's a pity to finish you off with steel. What did they teach you on the playing fields of Eton? Puss in the corner? Rudolph Rassendyll : Oh, chiefly not throwing knives at other people's backs. |
