Quotes 

  • Anthony Hope : [singing in the first lines]  I have sailed the world, beheld its wonders, from the Dardanelles to the mountains of Peru. But there's no place like London.

    Sweeney Todd : No, there's no place like London.

    Anthony Hope : [spoken]  Mr. Todd?

    Sweeney Todd : You are young. Life has been kind to you. You will learn.

  • Sweeney Todd : [sings]  There was a barber and his wife, / And she was beautiful. / A foolish barber and his wife. / She was his reason and his life, / And she was beautiful. / And she was virtuous. / And he was... naive. / There was another man who saw / That she was beautiful, / A pious vulture of the law, / Who with a gesture of his claw / Removed the barber from his plate. / Then there was nothing but to wait / And she would fall, / So soft, / So young, / So lost, / And oh, so beautiful.

    Anthony Hope : And the lady, sir, did she succumb?

    Sweeney Todd : [sings]  Oh, that was many years ago... / I doubt if anyone would know.

    [turns and speaks to Anthony] 

    Sweeney Todd : I'd like to thank you, Anthony. If you hadn't spotted me, I would be lost on the ocean still.

    Anthony Hope : Will I see you again?

    Sweeney Todd : You might find me, if you like, around Fleet Street, I wouldn't wonder.

    [looks down the street] 

    Anthony Hope : [holds out his hand for Sweeney to shake]  Until then, my friend.

    [Sweeney ignores Anthony and walks down the street] 

  • Anthony Hope : [Johanna is being hauled off to the asylum]  Where are you taking her? Tell me or I'll...

    Judge Turpin : You'll kill me, boy? Well here I stand!

  • Judge Turpin : Oh yes... such practices. The Geishas of Japan, the concubines of Siam, the catamites of Greece, the harlots of India. I have them all here, drawings of them. Everything you've ever dreamed of doing with a woman. Would you like to see?

    Anthony Hope : I think there's been some mistake.

    Judge Turpin : I think not. You gandered at my ward, Johanna. You gandered at her. YES, sir, you gandered!

    Anthony Hope : I meant no harm.

    Judge Turpin : Your meaning is immaterial. Mark me! If I see your face again on this street, you'll rue the day you were born.

  • Anthony Hope : You wait for him here. I'll return with a coach in less than half an hour. Don't worry no one'll recognize you. You're safe now.

    Johanna : Safe? So we run away and then all our dreams come true?

    Anthony Hope : I hope so.

    Johanna : I've never had dreams. Only nightmares.

    Anthony Hope : Johanna... when we're free of this place, all the ghosts will go away.

    Johanna : No, Anthony. They never go away.

  • [Judge Turpin leaves from the barbershop thanks to Anthony's blundering] 

    Sweeney Todd : [quietly]  Out.

    Anthony Hope : Mr. Todd... you have to help me!

    Sweeney Todd : [louder]  Out.

    Anthony Hope : [persistent]  Mr. Todd, please, I...

    Sweeney Todd : [roars]  *Out*!

    [Anthony runs out, and Mrs. Lovett hurries in] 

    Mrs. Lovett : [arriving]  All this running and shouting, wot's going on?

    Sweeney Todd : [sings]  I had him! His throat was bare, beneath my hand!

    Mrs. Lovett : There, there, dear, calm down...

    Sweeney Todd : No! I had him! His throat was there, and now he'll never come again!

    Mrs. Lovett : [sings to calm him]  Easy now. Hush, love, hush. / I keep telling you,

    Sweeney Todd : *When*?

    Mrs. Lovett : What's your rush?

    Sweeney Todd : Why did I wait? / You told me to wait! / Now he'll never come again!

    [he goes toward the window and looks at it] 

    Sweeney Todd : There's a hole in the world like a great black pit, / And it's filled with people who are filled with shit, / And the vermin of the world inhabit it, / But not for loooong!

  • Anthony Hope : [sings]  I feel you, Johanna, / I feel you. / Do they think that walls can hide you? / Even now I'm at your window. / I am in the dark beside you, / Buried sweetly in your yellow hair, / Johanna...

    Sweeney Todd : [sings]  And are you beautiful and pale, / With yellow hair, like her? / I want you beautiful and pale, / The way I've dreamed you were, / Johanna...

    Anthony Hope : Johanna...

    Sweeney Todd : And if you're beautiful, what then, / With yellow hair, like wheat? / I think we shall not meet again, / My little dove, my sweet Johanna...

    Anthony Hope : I'll steal you, Johanna...

    Sweeney Todd : Goodbye, Johanna. / You're gone, and yet you're mine. / I'm fine, Johanna, / I'm fine.

    Anthony Hope : Johanna...

  • Sweeney Todd : [sings]  And if I never hear your voice, / My turtledove, my dear, / I still have reason to rejoice: / The way ahead is clear, / Johanna...

    Anthony Hope : [sings]  I feel you, Johanna...

    Sweeney Todd : And in that darkness when I'm blind / With what I can't forget / It's always morning in my mind, / My little lamb, my pet, / Johanna... / You stay, Johanna, / The way I've dreamed you are. / Oh look, Johanna, / A star! / A shooting star!

    Anthony Hope : Buried sweetly in your yellow hair...

  • Sweeney Todd : [sings]  And though I'll think of you, I guess, / Until the day I die, / I think I miss you less and less / As every day goes by, / Johanna...

    Anthony Hope : [sings]  Johanna...

    Sweeney Todd : And you'd be beautiful and pale, / And look too much like her. / If only angels could prevail, / We'd be the way we were, / Johanna...

    Anthony Hope : I feel you, Johanna...

    Sweeney Todd : Wake up, Johanna! / Another bright red day! / We learn, Johanna, / To say / Goodbye...

    Anthony Hope : I'll steal you...

  • [Anthony barges into the barbershop, not realizing that Todd and the Judge are there] 

    Anthony Hope : Mr. Todd! I'm running away with Johanna! She'll marry me Sunday!

    [He stops short as he sees the judge in the barber's chair] 

    Anthony Hope : [the Judge hears this and gets angry] 

    Judge Turpin : You... there is indeed a higher power to warn me thus in time.

    [wipes his face and goes to Anthony] 

    Judge Turpin : Johanna, elope with you? I'll make sure that neither you nor any other man shall ever set eyes in her again!

    [turns to Todd] 

    Judge Turpin : And as for you, barber... that's all too clear what company you keep! Serve them well and hold their custom, for you'll have none of mine!

    [storms out of the barbershop] 

  • [from trailer] 

    Anthony Hope : [comes rushing in looking for Sweeney only to see Mrs.Lovett]  Oh, I'm sorry. Excuse me...

    Mrs. Lovett : Mrs.Lovett, son.

    Anthony Hope : A pleasure, ma'am.

    [he finally see's Sweeney] 

    Anthony Hope : [really quickly]  Mr.Todd, there's a girl who needs my help. Such a sad girl, and lonely but beautiful to and...

    Sweeney Todd : [he leads Antony to a chair]  Slow down, son.

    Anthony Hope : [sits down]  Yes, I'm sorry. This girl has a guardian who keeps her locked away, but then this morning she dropped this

    [holds up a key] 

    Anthony Hope : surely a sign that Johanna wants me to help her. That's her name, Johanna, and Turpin is her guardian. He's a judge of some sort. Once he goes to court, I'm going to skip into the house, release her, and beg her to come away with me tonight!

    Mrs. Lovett : Oh, this is very romantic.

    Anthony Hope : [he turns to Mrs.Lovett]  Yes.

    [he turns back to Todd] 

    Anthony Hope : But I don't know anyone in London, you see, and I need somewhere safe to bring her until I've hired a coach to take us away. If I could keep her just for an hour or two, I'd be forever in your debt.

    Mrs. Lovett : Bring her 'ere, love.

    Anthony Hope : [to Mrs.Lovett]  Thank you, ma'am.

    Anthony Hope : [to Todd] 

    Anthony Hope : Mr.Todd...?

    Sweeney Todd : [Sweeney can only nod in agreement] 

  • Anthony Hope : Is everything alright, Mister Todd?

    Sweeney Todd : I beg your indulgence, Anthony. My mind is far from easy. In these once familiar streets I feel shadows... everywhere...

    Anthony Hope : Shadows?

    Sweeney Todd : ...Ghosts.
