** Mistress Quickly's scene at the start of the play where she gives what critics consider Falstaff's funeral elegy is also highly memorable. In the Henry IV plays she was a SatelliteCharacter to Falstaff and fundamentally a brothel madam stereotype, but the wonderfully moving prose with which she commends Falstaff to "Arthur's bosom" is unforgettable, especially in Creator/OrsonWelles' ''Film/ChimesAtMidnight'' (where she's played by Margaret Rutherford).
