:51:00
I wrote a poem.
:51:01
"When I am dead, cremate me. "
:51:05
That's how it begins.
:51:06
"When I am dead, cremate me. "
:51:08
What do you think of that
for an opening line?

:51:14
It's... challenging.
:51:15
I'm a challenging sort of man.
:51:17
That's why people don't like me.
:51:19
I don't go along with the
ordinary ways of thinking.

:51:22
Then we are exactly alike.
:51:25
Another glass of brandy?
:51:28
I find that alcohol,
taken in sufficient quantities,

:51:31
can produce all the effects
of drunkenness.

:51:34
You were there for ages.
:51:36
You stayed talking
till after four.

:51:38
I knew you'd like him
once you'd met him.

:51:41
He's got charm, I admit that.
:51:43
But that's bad.
:51:45
Men shouldn't be charming.
:51:47
It's disgusting.
:51:48
Don't think much of his action.
:51:51
Let's have a look at the bay.
:51:53
Mind you,
Wilde's no fool.

:51:55
Talks wonderfully.
Really wonderfully.

:51:57
But that means nothing
:51:58
when what he says
is such rot.

:52:01
Worse than rot - evil.
:52:02
Which is why I insist
:52:04
you stop seeing him
forthwith.

:52:06
What's that supposed to mean?
:52:08
I will cut off
your allowance

:52:10
if you don't do
as I say.

:52:12
Trot him up and down
a bit!

:52:14
Look, Father...
:52:15
You wasted your time at Oxford,
:52:17
pretending you were going
into the Foreign Office,

:52:19
where that Jew queer Rosebery
is Foreign Secretary

:52:22
and buggers the juniors,
including your brother.

:52:24
That's all lies.
:52:26
Spent your time
writing obscene poetry.

:52:28
My poems aren't obscene.
:52:29
They're in the manner
of Wilde,

:52:31
that's filthy enough
for me.

:52:32
Have you read any
of Oscar's poems?

:52:34
I wouldn't sully my mind
:52:36
with perverted trash
like that.

:52:38
Tell him to
pick his feet up!

:52:40
He's not straight!
:52:43
Are you calling Oscar a pervert?
:52:45
Because that's libellous!
:52:46
I'm not saying
he IS one,

:52:48
I'm saying
he's POSING as one.

:52:50
Which is worse.
:52:51
His wife's divorcing him,
did you know that?

:52:55
For sodomy!
:52:56
That's COMPLETELY untrue.
:52:59
I hope it is.
