Miss Potter (2006): the Potters Disapprove

The clip the potters disapprove from Miss Potter (2006)

Come along, Norman, it's only her father.
Come in.
Thank you very much, Mr. Potter, for taking the time
out of your very busy day.
Goodbye, Mr. Warne.
If you will not accept our advice in this decision,
then we will have to impose that advice.
Respect our knowledge and the worth of our opinions, Beatrix.
Oi! Get over there!
I said that I'll do it and I will.
Norman Warne is a tradesman, Beatrix. No Potter can marry into trade,
and that's final.
And what are we?
Father's money comes from Grandfather's printing works
in Lancashire. A trade, Mother.
And if Grandfather hadn't run for parliament,
we'd still be living in the shadow of his factories.
Your legacy came from Grandfather Leech's cotton trade.
When did we become so high and mighty?
We're parvenus, Mother. Social climbers.
Your father and I We will not allow this marriage for your own good,
and there is no reason to become insulting!
It's not an insult! It's the truth!
Our lives are pretension and social aspiration.
Sir this and Lady that!
Norman Warne is a gentleman of comfortable means,
and not one bit beneath us, and I intend to marry him.
Not if you expect to take one penny of your inheritance!
You haven't disinherited Bertram for running off
with a wine merchant's daughter.
Happily, I am a published author. I have means of my own.
This discussion is over.
