Evey Hammond: [voiceover] Remember, remember, the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot... But what of the man? I know his name was Guy Fawkes and I know, in 1605, he attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still ...

Trivia
Evey winds up living with Finch. While Finch is explaining about his trip to Larkhill to Dominic you see a quick scene in which Evey is walking away from a vase of Scarlet Carsons, Finch is in the mirror holding a drink. See more »Goofs
During V's speech in the BTN, the first shot of Finch (right before he says "bloody hell...") shows him standing in an office. The next shot of Finch, during the same speech shows him standing in front of the BTN and no longer in the office, with no emotion on his face from ever having moved. See more »Quotes

OK, I only went to see this because of the Wachowski brothers involvement. I went totally expecting to hate this movie about a terrorist but it was so much more. I'm amazed to say that it's AWESOME! While not an action picture there's plenty of action and at least one funny homage to The Matrix. You've gotta see it. It's very inspiring, believe it or not and it didn't make me want to blow up buildings either. It just made me appreciate freedom even more. Hugo Weaving is terrific and Natalie Portman leaves Princess Amadala far behind with her performance as Evey. Everyone's great. Stephen Rea is terrific too. I just can't believe I liked this movie. I'm still in shock.
