Street Musician: At one point Sophie stands with a group of other beggars, singing along while a man plays the violin. She also holds a baby doll to look more sympathetic. | |

Astonishingly Appropriate Interruption | |
| Savage Messiah (1972) / int_3b4e5e81 | comment |
Astonishingly Appropriate Interruption: Henri is telling his friend that he wants to pick up some women, specifically "...really fantastic women. Big, fleshy, breasty, sexy, man-eating—". Cue Helen Mirren who fits that description, as Gosh Boyle, asking Henri for a light. | |

| Savage Messiah (1972) / int_3cf44d4b | comment |
High-Class Glass: Gosh's father is a cavalry officer, and an absurd parody of a Colonel Blimp-type. He completes the package with a monocle. | |

Bourgeois Bohemian | |
| Savage Messiah (1972) / int_4756a7f | comment |
Bourgeois Bohemian: Gosh. She plays at being a suffragette, making loud and theatrical "Votes for Women" protests. Later, she's an enthusiastic nude model for Henri. But it's clear that she really just wants attention, and at the start of World War I she joins up for a women's auxiliary corps. | |

Cute, but Cacophonic; Gosh Boyle. She's drop-dead gorgeous but a beyond terrible singer, as shown when she sings a little suffragette ditty at a nightclub. | |

This Is My Chair: The protagonists first meet when Sophie accuses Henri of sitting in her spot at the library. Henri tells her that this is a public library with no reserved seats and tells her to sit in the other chair. Sophie shoves Henri's books and papers aside with her basket. Henri moves into the other seat. | |

Mistaken for Romance: At first Henri and Sophie stay with Henri's family in the French countryside, but then Sophie is reported to the mayor as a foreigner involved in the 'improper reception' of men. Sophie is evicted from the district for this crime, even though, as she says, she doesn't like sex. | |
