Here's a weird fact. Just now watched Kind Hearts and Coronets, and between 53 and 54 minutes in, Alec Guinness, playing this time the somewhat demented rector of the church, after both had been drinking, says to Dennis Price, "My Lord, the Port is with you." I had to listen to this three times to get the wording right.

This is eerily close to Obi-Wan Kenobi's comment to Luke Skywalker in Star Wars, "Luke, the Force is with you." One wonders if it is not deliberate. Does it deserve mention in this or the Star Wars or the Alec Guinness article? I don't know. Bill Jefferys 02:53, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

I read the script, and I noticed that as soon as I read the line. I was all, "Priest, church, windows, Star Wars, poison, e—Star Wars?" Yeah, you got the wording right. And I doubt it should be added, it's a coincidence. VolatileChemical 02:07, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Does anyone think we should list how the family members die? If this comment is ignored, I'll just wait a few days and put it on myself. VolatileChemical 09:09, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

I personally think it adds too much detail, but I'm not strongly opposed to it. Clarityfiend 21:17, 5 June 2006 (UTC)


I think that the way in which he dispatches his victims should be mentioned. This is, from a personal POV, one of my favourite films. The comments are quite exquisite. Darkmind1970 15:33, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
