October 4: Clips from the Quills trailer was shown on E! News Daily this evening! (Thanks to Morgan for the tip!) Following is the transcript and a few screen captures:
Host Steve Kmetko introduced the trailer and did some voiceover explanations.
Kmetko: A movie with Hollywood's heavy hitters - Kate Winslet, Geoffrey Rush and Michael Caine - none of them actually from Hollywood - all star in the period drama Quills, and E! has your exclusive first look.
Abbe: It's nothing but an encyclopedia of perversions! One man killed his wife after reading them! |
Marquis: It's a fiction. |
|
|
Kmetko: And quite interesting fiction. Geoffrey Rush plays the infamous French writer Marquis de Sade, whose sexual writings get him sent to an asylum.
Marquis: [Talking with the Abbe] Conversation, like certain portions of the anatomy, always runs more smoothly when lubricated.
Kmetko: While institutionalized, Geoffrey meets up with Kate Winslet, a maid who secretly smuggles out his controversial stories.
Madeleine: Tell me, is it awfully violent? |
Marquis: Most assuredly. |
|
|
Madeleine: And terribly erotic? |
Marquis: Fiendishly so. |
|
|
[Madeleine giggles, then reaches for the pages de Sade is holding. He pulls them away.]
Marquis: A kiss for each page. |
|
|
|
Kmetko: But life becomes more difficult when this writer's pages are finally read. [Scene of Madeleine listening to a story being read.]
His doctor, played by Michael Caine, sees it as a way to keep Rush locked up forever.
Doctor: [As de Sade is being 'treated'] A few more months of this, and you'll be fine.
Abbe: [As he holds a distraught Madeleine] You mean to take us all down with you.
Madeleine: Don't come any closer, Abbe - God's watching.
Kmetko: And a good time was had by all. You can find out who makes it out alive when Quills opens November 22nd.
