Lynn Redgrave: Hanna
Quotes
-
James Whale : Who is this new yardman?
Hannah : Mr. Bugen... something B... I don't know. He came cheap!
-
Hannah : Poor Mr. Jimmy. There is much good in him, but he will suffer the fires of hell.
Clayton Boone : Oh yeah?
Hannah : That is what the priests tell me. His sins of the flesh will keep him from heaven.
Clayton Boone : Hell, everybody's got those.
Hannah : No. His is the worst. The unspeakable. The deed no man can name without shame. What is the good English? All I know is bugger, he's a bugger, men who bugger each other...
Clayton Boone : A homo?
Hannah : *Yes*, you *know*...
-
Hannah : Oh, men! Always pulling legs. Everything is comedy. Oh, how very amusing. How marvelously droll.
-
[Hannah is disturbed by the image of Boris Karloff as Frankenstein's Monster]
Hannah : Oh, that monster. How could you be working with him?
James Whale : Don't be daft. He's a very proper actor... and the dullest fellow imaginable.

[first lines]
Hannah : [whispering] She was ugly when I brought her. I not like her. Mr. Jimmy not like her. Better you indicate, Mr. David.
David Lewis : Stop.
Hannah : Shhh.
-
Hannah : Mr. Boone. He is an interesting friend.
James Whale : I'd hardly call our yardman a friend.
Hannah : No. But someone you can talk to.
James Whale : [Whale stops, turns to Hanna] Do you miss having someone to talk to, Hanna?
Hannah : I have my family. Also our Lord Jesus Christ.
James Whale : Of course. How is the old boy these days?
-
Hannah : [referring to Clayton while meeting with James] He looks plenty big. He won't need my help if anything goes flooey.
