Mrs. Miniver evaluation action
-
Vicar: [to Lady Beldon who has just entered the railway compartment he is already sharing with Mrs. Miniver] Good evening, Lady Beldon.
Lady Beldon: Good evening, vicar. Oh, oh, shopping's absolutely impossible nowadays! You can't get near the counter and when you do, they haven't got it and you pay twice as much for it.
Vicar: [laughs] What a wonderful description!
Lady Beldon: [to her servant] Sit down, Simmons, and don't snip!
[to the vicar]
Lady Beldon: My dear man, I spent the whole afternoon being pushed around by middle-class females buying things they can't possibly afford.
Kay Miniver: Oh dear, that means me.
Lady Beldon: Oh no, much worse!

Toby Miniver: Are you going to marry Carol, Vin?
Vin Miniver: Well, since you bring it up, Toby... I haven't had the nerve to ask her.
Toby Miniver: Why not? You're brave, aren't you?
Judy Miniver: Don't be so silly, Toby. Gentlemen don't propose when they're eating.
Toby Miniver: Why not?
Judy Miniver: Well, it isn't romantic.
Vin Miniver: Of course it isn't.
Carol Beldon: Toby.
Toby Miniver: What?
Carol Beldon: Why don't you ask me if I'm going to marry Vin?
Toby Miniver: Are you?
Carol Beldon: If he asks me.
Toby Miniver: He's afraid.
