"Library. These are mostly foreign."
"Indeed. Magnificent."
"I've never liked the smell of books."
"The dust perhaps."
Is there any quicker way to make the audience for a Jane Austen movie know the character they're watching is meant to be a villainess than by having her literally turn up her nose at a gorgeous library? I mean she might as well have scooped out sweet Emma Thompson's eyes with gardening shears. (Seriously though Harriet Walter just makes the best bitch.)
Happy birthday, Ang Lee!
