My favorite movie from a play, in fact it borders on being a filmed
play with the the stage curtain effect at the beginning is the 1952
Anthony Asquith directed "The Importance of Being Earnest". It also
comes with one of my favorite lines:
Lady Augusta Bracknell: Are your parents living?
Jack: I have lost both my parents.
Lady Augusta Bracknell: To lose one parent, Mr. Worthing, may be
regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness.
Also:
Lady Augusta Bracknell (delivered as only Edith Evans could): A
haaaandbaaag!
