Anastasia
1997
Vladimir: She certainly has a mind of her own. Dimitri: Yeah. I hate that in a woman.
Dowager Empress Marie: You were the boy, weren't you - the servant boy who got us out? You saved her life and mine and you restored her to me. Yet you want no reward. Dimitri: Not anymore. Dowager Empress Marie: Why the change of mind? Dimitri: It was more a change of heart. I must go.
Anya: Men are such babies.
Anastasia: Oh no, not me... nope! No... nobody ever told me I had to prove I was the grand duchess! Dimitri: Look, I... Anastasia: Show up, yes. Look nice, fine. But lie?
Anya: Do you really think I'm royalty? Dimitri: You know I do! Anya: Then stop bossing me around!
Anya: Years of dreams just can't be wrong!
Bartok: Just wishing I could do the job for you, sir. I'd give her a HA! And a HI-YA! And then a OUU-WA! And I'd kick her, sir.
Dowager Empress Marie: You'll stop at nothing, will you? Dimitri: I'm probably about as stubborn as you are.
Sophie: It's a perfect ending. Dowager Empress Marie: No. It's a perfect beginning.
Bartok: Oh sure blame the bat, what the heck, we're easy targets.
Anastasia: Wha - ? Hey! Why are you circling me? What were you, a vulture in another life?
Rasputin: Bartok! Get me a comb, find some cologne! I want to look my best! Bartok: That might take some work, sir.
Bartok: Hey, what happened to the party idea?
Bartok: Stress. It's a killer.
Bartok: Master! You're alive? Rasputin: In a matter of speaking! (Rasputin's eyeball pops out, Bartok catches it) Bartok: Whoa, that fell right out there, sir!
(Dimitri and Anya are learning how to waltz) Vladimir: (singing) It's one-two-three / and suddenly / I see it at a glance / She's radiant / And confident / and born to take this chance. / I taught her well. / I planned it all! / I just forgot... / Romance! / Vlad, how could you do this? / How will we get / through this? / I never should have / let them dance...
Dimitri: (singing) Paris holds the key to her past. / Yes, Princess, I've found / you at last. / No more pretend, / You'll be gone, / That's the end...
Dimitri: What are you looking for? Anastasia: The Russian Circus. I think it's still in here.
Anastasia: I'm not afraid of you. Rasputin: I can fix that.
Bartok: And we're back to the crushing.
Bartok: Please sir, forget the girl and get a life. Rasputin: Oh, I'll get a life, Bartok - her's!
Rasputin: In the still of the night I was tossing and turning / And the nightmare I had was as dark as can be / It scared me out of my wits / A corpse falling to bits / Then I opened my eyes and the nightmare was me!
Dowager Empress Marie: (about Dmitri to Anastasia) He didn't take the money.
Anastasia: (singing) I never cared for Stroganoff! Vladimir: (singing) She said that like a Romanov!
Anastasia: (singing) And I recall his yellow cat! Vladimir: (singing to Dmitri) I don't believe we told her that...
Bartok: You're on your own now sir! This can only end in tears!
Vladimir: (after tempting Anya to be Anastasia) I'm telling you we're walking away too soon! Dimitri: I'm telling you I've got it all under control... ok walk a little slower...
Dowager Empress Marie: You're a very good actress, best yet in fact. But I've had enough. (starts to walk away) Anastasia: Peppermint? Dowager Empress Marie: Oil for my hands. Anastasia: Yes... I spilled a bottle. The carpet was soaked and it forever smelled of peppermint - like you. I used to lie on that rug and oh how I missed you while you were away...
Dimitri: I don't want your money. Dowager Empress Marie: What do you want then? Dimitri: Unfortunately, nothing you can give.
