Funny / The Phantom of the Opera (1962)

• Harry's snarkiness makes for some hilarious moments:
  Harry: What I don't understand is how Ambrose D'Arcy can write so much excellent music in the last few years when he has so little musical taste.
  D'Arcy: [coming up behind him] Thank you, Mr. Hunter.
  Harry: [without missing a beat] You're welcome.

  Christine: [uncomfortable with the idea of being alone with the lecherous D'Arcy] Mr. Hunter, Lord Ambrose has very kindly offered to coach me in my singing.
  Harry: Has he?
  Christine: Tonight.
  Harry: [surprised] Tonight?
  Christine: Yes, and I wondered if you could possibly spare the time. That is, if you'd care to.
  Harry: But of course. [glancing at D'Arcy, his voice filled with wry amusement] Nothing I'd like better than watching Ambrose teaching you how to sing.

  Harry: [to Christine, after she has been dismissed from the opera] I insist that you come and celebrate.
  Mrs. Tucker: Celebrate, Mr. Hunter?
  Harry: Yes, Mrs. Tucker. Today we both got the sack.
  Christine: Oh, no, Harry.
  Harry: Oh, yes, Harry.
• The scene where Harry and Christine visit the opera house at night after closing (to investigate the strange goings-on there) and meet the cleaning women. They accuse Harry of "looking for a nice dark corner to do a bit of courting" with Christine, and one of them attempts to shoo him off with her broom. To get rid of them, Harry comes up with a phony story about losing a diamond brooch in the auditorium. The greedy women rush off to find it.
• When the rat catcher offers two of his rats to Harry and Christine:
  Rat Catcher: I could let you have them both for tuppence, sir. They'd make a lovely pie, y'know.
  Harry: We're vegetarians.
  Rat Catcher: Pity.
