Robinson, Bruce (1999). Withnail and Us. Channel 4. Event occurs at 1:31. The movie takes place over, um... you know, two or three weeks and the reality of the story was over two or three years. The cottage They draw up in a yard and get out of the car. Withnail staggers around aimlessly as Marwood gets the baggage from the boot. Ebert, Roger (25 March 2009).

He starts to leave.

Outside the cottage Marwood is leaning on the wall. Withnail emerges and walks briskly over to him. You shouldn't treat each other so badly. [He rubs Marwood's hands between his own] This boy's been out there, frozen to the marrow, and you just sit in here drinking. Now, come along. He's going to revitalize himself in here while you finish the vegetables. It may only be the wolves that listen, but Withnail is on stage, and all his bitterness and injured pride are poured into his performance.Jonze, Tim (14 November 2011). "My favourite film: Withnail and I". The Guardian . Retrieved 15 November 2011. I have to confess, I first heard about Withnail and I in terms of a drinking game – could you watch the film while matching the two lead characters shot for shot, pint for pint, Camberwell carrot for Camberwell carrot? Never point guns at people! Extremely dangerous. Now, what about this roasting dish? What are we going to cook it in? You're looking very beautiful, man. Have you been away? St. Peter preached the Epistles to the Apostles looking like that. Have you got any food? Early in the film, Withnail reads a newspaper headline "Boy Lands Plum Role for Top Italian Director" and suggests that the director is sexually abusing the boy. This is a reference to the sexual harassment that Robinson alleges he suffered at the hands of Zeffirelli when, at age 21, he won the role of Benvolio in Romeo and Juliet. [12] Robinson attributed Uncle Monty's question to Marwood ("Are you a sponge or a stone?") as a direct quote from Zeffirelli. [13] [14] The headline "NUDE AU PAIR'S SECRET LIFE" was an actual headline from News of the World on 16 November 1969. [15]

Well, there's this local type hanging about. Poacher. We got into a bit of a tiff and he threatened me with a dead fish. [Monty giggles] Yes, it was rather amusing, actually. When you came in, we thought it was him and we thought that you cleaning your boots was him sharpening the knife. Get that damned little swine out of here! It's trying to get itself in with you. It's trying for even more advantage. It's obsessed with its gut. It's like a bloody rugby ball now. It will die! It will die! Great script, shame about the transcription which is strewn with errors. For example: Gielgud becomes, inexplicably, Gylgod. Bobby H has it right- get the book instead.

We need you!

You must, you must. That poop will bore through the glaze. We'll never be able to use the dinner service again. [Rummaging through a drawer] Here, get it with the pliers. Murphy, Peter.
