Overview

The year is 1880. On the outskirts of the fictional small Scottish town of Levenford there stands a strange building, half cottage, half castle, embraced with thick stone walls. The townsfolk nickname the fortress "Hatter's Castle", for James Brodie, the man who built it. Brodie is a hatter who keeps the members of the family in fear and submission; he is brutal, arrogant, selfish and cruel. His wife, who has long been ailing, and his daughter Mary, are in awe of him. His son Angus, aged 15, alone dear to his heart, suffers under his love as the others suffer under his sternness.

00:05:10 What do you say, Brodie? They want to appoint a school physician.

00:08:10 I don't see how I can. You see...

00:10:59 My husband comes in at 5:30 and he's always on the stroke.

00:14:58 Mother was feeling so ill all of a sudden.

00:18:23 But you'll need to stick into your work.

00:22:57 Dear, dear.

00:26:12 Miss Brodie, would you say that uh...

00:29:03 I didn't expect to see you here after what happened that night.

00:33:08 It's nothing, dear. It will soon pass.

00:38:05 Catch.

00:42:15 Actually, I've heard it said before that you claim to be related to us.

00:46:07 They're coming up here.

00:51:06 I can't marry you.

00:54:53 You can't ask Father for money. He'd never give us a penny.

00:59:29 What have you done with the money you got from Grierson?

01:03:12 You've not got the guts of a louse.

01:09:02 There's no need to get hoity-toity about it.

01:15:29 Good morning, Mrs. Brodie. How are you today?

01:18:42 Just try to think calmly. You're sure to remember it.

01:23:42 Foyle

01:27:44 Hats for nothing, hats for nothing. Quick! Who wants free hats?

01:36:59 I've killed him.
