Todd's Light and Shadow

He hugged Lucy, blood splattered her face

Vision, blood on the ground, long music, the screen ended

Ten years later, this image is still reverberating

The most cruel scene in the world is this

The end of obsession is to destroy it by myself

Lucy is his obsession

Damn everyone who hurts her

including himself

never forget nor forgive

Therefore, the second half of life must be revenge

Such people with blood on their hands

In the end, I couldn't forgive myself

Damn them, damn Lovett, damn herself

The wheel of fortune has traveled to this moment, there is no way to turn back

That's the meaning of his life

also the meaning of death

blood on face

Cut throat again and again

pierced vein jet

Not enough to be a reason for darkness

"She has yellow hair

This is my only memory

but it doesn't matter

live like a walking dead

better in her name."

mentioned in Johanna's trio

Maybe you're not what I remember

Maybe not as holy and flawless as she is

But so what?

I still have reason to take solace

The road ahead is still clearly visible

I'm sinking into myself, even if I miss you less and less

I understand, I understand

I understand that I beautify you too much

But this is my belief

Faith that lasts the rest of your life

Other than that, there is no other reason to live

Just need a god to illuminate, even if I have fallen into darkness

i like black color

If there is no light, black is not so black

So, I dare to say goodbye to you

not because i love you

but when darkness becomes a habit

I can get rid of my dependence on the light and sink completely

but i failed

Killed his own wife

All the reasons for self-deception are no longer valid

From this moment, there is no way to reconcile myself

You can't even lie to yourself

everything is meaningless

revenge? it's ridiculous

Even I have become my own laughing stock

Lucy, I've come home again

Lucy, oh my god

His expression, I can't believe it, it hurts my heart

The belief that supported me has collapsed

How to face this self in the future

Before it's time to get ready to be darkness itself

the light has gone out

no place to stay

You can't even deceive yourself

Maybe the cruelest place in the world

As for Lovett

Her cautiousness, her accommodating, her love

I understand but I am not involved

She's not my ideal

between light and shadow

Gray is not the color I want

Only absolute light can pull me back from absolute darkness

When the light in fantasy is extinguished

Death is the only antidote

How can I be honest with myself?

The stained blood distorted his face

even hideous

Such a man yearns for the light

Butcher knife becomes justice

The stump in the meat grinder has become a necessity of faith

Maybe there's no black and white at all

Only the despair of self-disintegration

At least, death is also an exit

    The first 1 hour is very positive, but the ending part makes the movie a lot less

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street quotes

  • Mrs. Lovett: So what are we gonna do about the boy?

    Sweeney Todd: Send him up!

    Mrs. Lovett: No, Mr. T. Surely one's enough for today. Besides, I was thinking of hiring the lad to help me run the shop. Your poor knees aren't what they used to be.

    Sweeney Todd: All right.

    Mrs. Lovett: Of course, we're gonna have to stock up on the gin. Boy's drinking like a sailor.

  • Judge Turpin: I have news for you, my friend. In order to shield her from the evils of this world, I have decided to marry my dear Johanna.

    Beadle: Ah, sir, happy news indeed.

    Judge Turpin: Strange, though, when I offered myself to her, she showed a certain reluctance.

    Beadle: [sings] Excuse me, my lord. / May I request, my lord, / Permission, my lord, to speak? / Forgive me if I suggest, my lord, / You're looking less than your best, my lord, / There's powder upon your vest, my lord, / And stubble upon your cheek. / And ladies, my lord, are weak.

    Judge Turpin: Stubble, you say? Perhaps I am a little overhasty in the morning.

    Beadle: [sings] Fret not though, my lord, / I know a place, my lord, / A barber, my lord, of skill. / Thus armed with a shaven face, my lord, / Some eau de cologne to brace my lord / And musk to enhance the chase, my lord, / You'll dazzle the girl until...

    Judge Turpin: Until?

    Beadle: [sings] She bows to your every will.
