:15:01
Otherwise, if one more word of this
outrageous calumny reaches my ears, I shall sue!
:15:06
I shall take Miss Mackay
to the public courts...
:15:08
and I shall sue the trustees of Marcia Blaine,
if they support her.
:15:11
I will not stand quietly by
and allow myself to be crucified...
:15:15
by a woman whose fetid frustration
has overcome her judgment!
:15:19
If scandal is to your taste,
Miss Mackay, I shall give you a feast!
:15:23
- Miss Brodie!
- I am a teacher!
:15:26
I am a teacher,
first, last, always!
:15:28
Do you imagine
that for one instant...
:15:30
I will let that be taken
from me without a fight?
:15:33
I have dedicated, sacrificed
my life to this profession.
:15:37
And I will not stand by
like an inky little slacker...
:15:39
and watch you rob me
of it and for what?
:15:42
For what reason?
For jealousy!
:15:44
Because I have the gift
of claiming girls for my own.
:15:46
It is true I am
a strong influence on my girls.
:15:49
I am proud of it!
:15:51
I influence them to be
aware of all the possibilities of life...
:15:55
of beauty, honor, courage.
:15:57
I do not, Miss Mackay, influence them
to look for slime where it does not exist!
:16:02
I am going.
:16:04
When my class convenes,
my pupils will find me composed...
:16:07
and prepared to reveal to them
the succession of the Stuarts.
:16:12
And on Sunday, I will go to Cramond
to visit Mr. Lowther.
:16:16
We are accustomed,
bachelor and spinster...
:16:18
to spend our Sundays together
in sailing and walking the beaches...
:16:21
and in the pursuit
of music.
:16:24
Mr. Lowther is teaching me
to play the mandolin.
:16:26
Good day, Miss Mackay.
:16:38
Uh, Mr. Lowther...
:16:40
I am sure I need not
suggest to you that we keep...
:16:43
the details of Miss Brodie's
little... tantrum to ourselves.
:16:47
- Yes...
- I've no doubt that you, as well as I...
:16:49
- have her interests at heart.
- Well, l...
:16:52
Thank you,
Mr. Lowther.
:16:54
No doubt you have
other duties to attend to.
:16:56
Oh, yes. Yes, Miss Mackay.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
