The Tailor of Panama (2001)

Lola Boorman: Sarah

Quotes 

• Harry Pendel : Oh, yes. The lies. Very, very sorry about the lies. Louisa, I never did work in Saville Row, did I? Not as such. I learned the tailoring in prison. I burned down my Uncle Benny's warehouse to help him out. And then when I done my time, Uncle Benny, he gives me my portion, sends me out here so I can't get into trouble. I pretended he was Arthur Braifwaite. You see, lying's what we do in prison, luv. It's instead of love, really. You tell a thing the way it ought to be because that's so much better than how it is. Well, it's that bad. If you follow me.

  Louisa Pendel : Why didn't you just tell me from the start?

  Harry Pendel : [sobbing]  Because I fell in love with you, my princess, and I knew that I wasn't good enough for you. Not as I stood.

  Louisa Pendel : Harry, you are such a fool.

  Sarah Pendel : [Coming downstairs]  Dad, you promised to tell me a story. Where were you?

  Harry Pendel : Oh, Sarah, I'm so sorry.

  Sarah Pendel : No need to cry about it, Dad.

  Mark Pendel : [Coming downstairs]  Hi, Dad.

  Sarah Pendel : Hi, Mum.

  Harry Pendel : What do you want me to do?

  Louisa Pendel : What do I want you to do? What you always do.

  [pregnant pause] 

  Louisa Pendel : Make breafast.

  Mark Pendel : Can we have pancakes?
