Evans' voice was symphonic; she wrings whole sentences out of single words, she drawls and gurgles, whoops and splutters. She's a madness of grandeur and establishment poise.There's nothing like it anywhere in drama.

"The line is immaterial!" Lady Bracknell - Influence lost.
@SmudgeThomas
3 жыл бұрын
The joke is rather lost nowadays, but at the time, the London Chatham and Dover had one side of Victoria, (the Western, smaller side) and the other was the London, Brighton and South Coast. "The Chatham" was regarded as one of the worst of the Victorian railways, catering to those who desired especially cheap accommodation. "The Brighton Line" by contrast went for the luxury market, running Pullman trains by the time Earnest came out, the most luxurious restaurant cars, with an hour to get to Brighton in them. A time still considered good today. Thus Lady Bracknell reveals that she is so contemptuous that the fact it's the nicer side doesn't matter.

I read this play many years ago and thought it was the funniest thing I'd ever read. Wilde was brilliant! I specifically remember this scene, which Dame Edith performs perfectly, though nowadays it's often performed with a man playing Lady Bracknell. There is a bit of this scene that was left out of the film. Lady Bracknell asks Jack which number on Belgrave Square his house is. When he tells her, she replies, "The unfashionable side! But I suppose that can be changed". "The side or the fashion?" he asks. "Both, if necessary," she replies in her inimitable arrogant tone.
