Every once in a while, I try to go back to this scene from the movie and consider it a yardstick to asses my English and how much my vocab has expanded. Of course I could take the short cut of jotting down the new terms in dialogue along with their definitions, but I feel as though that I'd be cheating myself.

V: Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished.

V: I am quite sure they will say so. But to whom, might I ask, am I speaking with?
Evey Hammond: I'm Evey.
V: Evey? E-V. Of course you are.
