Quotes
-
Colonel Winter : Can't fathom a man giving it up for art.
Anthony Blunt : Never trust a man who looks down his nose at art. Although looking down your nose, I suppose you'd ravage your mustache, past which you can't see much at all.
Colonel Winter : Are you trying to be funny or are you insulting me?
Anthony Blunt : I'm insulting you. I had finished what I wanted to do in hush-hush. That's why I packed it in.
Colonel Winter : What do you mean? Finished what?
Colonel Winter : Passing the name of every single MI5 agent on to the Russians. Good to see you, Winter.

Anthony Blunt : You should get a coat.
Guy Burgess : I got this one.
Anthony Blunt : Channel crossings can be chilly. Samara is a cold place.
Guy Burgess : Not as cold as Cambridge. Remember, permanently the nineteenth of February.

Porter : [last lines]
Porter : [at Cambridge] How are you, Sir?
Anthony Blunt : All right.
Porter : And your lot?
Anthony Blunt : My lot?
Porter : Let me see now... Burgess, Maclean, Philby. Are they all gone on to great things?
Anthony Blunt : I don't know.
Porter : Lost touch?
Anthony Blunt : Yes, lost touch. All gone.
[turns away to leave, then looks back over his shoulder]
Anthony Blunt : Great things? Yes. Yes, they all went on to *great* things.
