TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Sir John Hurt also played this character in the television movie The Naked Civil Servant (1975). Quentin Crisp said of Sir John Hurt, that he was his representative here on Earth.

This movie was named after Sting's song "Englishman in New York" (the song is about Quentin Crisp).

This movie could be considered a sequel to The Naked Civil Servant (1975).

A continuation concerning the latter part of his life in New York City during the 1980s and 1990s.

The film that Crisp refers to having an acting offer for, and is then briefly seen in, is 'Orlando' (1992) based on the 1928 Virginia Woolf novel. Although Crisp had occasionally appeared on film before, this particular film is deemed to have brought him to the attention of a younger audience who may have been unaware of him and brought in further offers of acting work, much of which he accepted. This also helped make him financially secure for the rest of his life.

Popular Dialogues

"Quentin Crisp: Persistence is your greatest weapon. It is in the nature of barriers that they fall. Do not seek to become like your opponents. You have the burden and the great joy of being outsiders. Every day you live as a kind of triumph. This you should cling onto. You should make no effort to try and join society. Stay right where you are. Give your name and serial number and wait for society to form itself around you. Because it will most certainly will. Neither look forward where there is doubt nor backward where this is regret. Look inward and ask not if there is anything outside that you want but whether there is anything inside that you have not yet unpacked."

"Quentin Crisp: Buying is more American than thinking."
