. I'm a terrible, frightful flirt. Did you ever hear of a nice girl that wasn't? But now I guess you'll tell me I'm not a nice girl.
Daisy Miller, Peter Bogdanovich (1974)
I'm not sure this 1976 BBC production has aged terribly well. A shame because it's fiercely literate and wise, thoughtful and stimulating, but this production is very stagey, studio bound and actory. As with the same author's less well regarded After The War it positions people at a time where the future looks bright and then follows their compromises and disappointments into middle age. It's six plays really. Interconnected stories about like after Cambridge for a glittering generation. Some episodes are more successful than others. I liked An Early Life and A Country Life, and the finale, but yawned rather through some of the others. Too many quips and self satisfied, well crafted one liners. Rather exhausting.
So, because I'm a beautiful woman, the only reason any man wants to talk to me is because he wants to fuck me? Is that what you're saying?
Eyes Wide Shut, Stanley Kubrick (1999)
Mark Wallace: “Darling, what's French for 'Inspector, I don't believe a word you're saying and you're not gonna get a damn penny?'” Joanna Wallace: 'Oui, monsieur.'

Joanna Wallace: [upset] “You just want me to become a beautiful memory, the sooner the better!” Mark Wallace: “Who said anything about beautiful?”
Mark Wallace: [Joanna has returned from an affair] “Hello.” Joanna Wallace: “Hello.” Mark Wallace: “Well?” Joanna Wallace: [softly, on the verge of tears] “I'm back.” Mark Wallace: “Enjoy yourself?” Joanna Wallace: [nods] “Yes, thank you. But I *missed* you.” [Mark sarcastically rolls his eyes, not believing her] Joanna Wallace: “I *did*.” Mark Wallace: “Why?” Joanna Wallace: “Because he's so serious.” Mark Wallace: “I thought you liked people who were serious.” Joanna Wallace: “But he's *so* serious. Mark Wallace: “Well, I'd better make some funny faces...” Joanna Wallace: [softly] “You don't need to make funny faces.” [Mark gives no response] Joanna Wallace: “Mark, I'm back!” Mark Wallace: “You humiliate me. You humiliate me... and then you come back.” Joanna Wallace: [nods tearfully] “That's right.” Mark Wallace: “Thank God!”
[he hugs her and they tearfully kiss]
One thing no one will ever, ever say in this country: “I wish you’d sent me to a Comprehensive.”
A character in Frederic Raphael’s novel Fame & Fortune, replying to his daughter’s assertion that she never asked to be privately educated.
