Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street Page #7

The ladies would greatly

appreciate it, sir...

Well... you are the

expert in these matters...

Can you take a moment?

Would you like a bit of... bay rum, sir?

Oooh, bay rum is bracing.

Let me out!

Please, let me out!

Toby?

Where is he?

Toby!

Where are you, love?

Toby!

Nothings gonna harm you...

Not while Im around...

Toby!

Where are you hiding?

Nothings gonna harm you, darling...

Not while Im around.

Toby...

Mr. Todd...?

You wait for him here.

I'll return with the coach

in less than half an hour...

Don't worry,

no one will recognize you...

You're safe now.

Safe...

So we run away and then

all our dreams come true?

I hope so...

I have never had dreams.

Only nightmares.

Johanna...

When were free of this place

all the ghosts will go away.

No, Anthony, they never go away.

I'll be right back to you...

Half an hour and we'll be free.

Beadle... Beadle...

No good hiding, I saw you!

Are you in there still?

Beadle... Beadle...

Beadle dear, Beadle...

Who are you?

What are you doing here?!

Ah, evil is here, sir.

The stink of evil - from below

- from her!...

She's the Devil's wife!

Oh, beware her, sir.

She with no pity...

...in her heart...

Hey, don't I know you, mister?

Where is she?

Below, your Honor.

With my neighbor.

Thank heavens the

sailor did not molest her.

Thank heavens, too, she has seen

the error of her ways.

She has?

Oh yes, your lesson was well learned.

She speaks only of you,

longing for forgiveness.

Then she shall have it.

She'll be here soon, you say?

Yes.

Excellent, my friend!

How about a shave?

Sit, sir. Sit.

Pretty women!

- Pretty women, yes.

Johanna, Johanna...

Pretty women...

Pretty women are a wonder...

What we do for pretty women...

Blowing out their candles,

combing out their hair-

Then they leave-

Even when they leave you

and vanish, they somehow

can still remain there

with you there...

How seldom it is one

meets a fellow spirit!

With fellow tastes -

in women, at least.

What? What's that?

The years no doubt

have changed me, sir.

But then, I suppose

the face of a barber -

The face of a prisoner in the dock

- is not particularly memorable.

Benjamin Barker!

BENJAMIN BARKER!

Rest now, my friend,

Rest now forever,

Sleep now the untroubled

sleep of the angels.

Come for a shave, have you, lad?

No - I...

Everyone needs a good shave-!

Forget my face.

Die! Die! God in heaven - die!

You!

Why did you scream?

He was clutching onto my dress,

but he's finished now...

I'll take care of it. Open the door.

Open the door, I said!

"Don't I know you?" she said...

You knew she lived.

I was only thinking of you!

You lied to me...

No, no, not lied at all.

No, I never lied.

Lucy... Said she took the poison - she did -

Never said that she died -

Poor thing, she lived -

I've come home again...

- But it left her weak in the head,

All she did for months

was just lie there in bed-

Lucy...

- Should've been in hospital,

Wound up in Bedlam instead,

poor thing...

Better you should think she was dead.

- Oh, my God...

Yes, I lied 'cos I love you!

- Lucy...

I'd be twice the wife she was!

I love you!

Could that thing have

cared for you like me?

What have i done?!

Mrs. Lovett, you're a bloody wonder,

Eminently practical and yet

appropriate as always,

As you've said repeatedly, there's

little point in dwelling on the past.

No, come here, my love...

- Everything I did I swear I thought

Not a thing to fear, my love...

- was only for the best, believe me!

- What's dead... is dead.

- Can we still be married?

The history of the world, my pet-

- Do you mean it?

Oh, Mr. Todd,

Oh, Mr. Todd, leave it to me.

Is learn forgiveness

and try to forget.

By the sea, Mr. Todd,

we'll be comfy-cozy,

By the sea, Mr. Todd,

where there's no one nosy...

And life is for the alive, my dear,

so let's keep living it-!

Just keep living it,

really living it-!

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...
