Curiosidades
According to "Story Of The Scene: 'A Private Function', Malcolm Mowbray, 1984" published in the April 25, 2008 edition of "The Independent", "(Dame) Maggie Smith found herself obliged to vault over the back of one porker when she was hemmed in during one kitchen scene, and everyone on-set was traumatized by their earthy nature." The pigs used in this movie were "unpredictable and often quite dangerous."

Pifias
When Mr Nuttal is with Mrs Forbes in the bedroom (and she's reading through the list of ingredients for the Royal wedding cake) there is coughing in the background (which sounds like a female).

Citas
Joyce Chilvers: I think sexual intercourse is in order, Gilbert.

Porcine Perfection

Why do I love this movie sooooo much. Because it is one of the most delightful movies ever made.

From the opening shots of Dame Maggie Smith and her aged mother (Liz Smith) jostling for space on the Wurlitzer seat to the closing shots of Michael Palin and Richard Griffiths looking sadly at Betty on the platter this is a movie where every scene has something new.

The contents of Michael Palin's lunch box, Richard Griffiths popping his little trotter over the edge of the chair to get a chocolate for Betty, Liz Smith checking her nightgown for malodorous fumes, Bill Paterson and his wonderful artistry with green paint ( don't miss this line its great), Michael Palin's overt Pythonesque chiropodist sign, and Liz Smiths startled look watching him clean it, these are just a taste of the subtle visual and aural moments that make this movie magic (moments that obviously went completely over the head of a previous reviewer).

Alan Bennetts plot is original and actually believable, as snobbery of all kinds can be found alive and well in any nation in the world at any time, and Denholm Elliot and Dame Maggie Smith would have to be crowned the King and Queen of snobbery for their efforts in this.

Many people read some books over and over This is a movie I watch over and over. I have this movie on Video and I shall definitely be buying it on DVD as well
