From Quiz "Sweeney Todd" Lyrics

4. Fill the blank in this lyric. 'From the Dardanelles to the mountains of _______.'

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": The 2007 Movie

Answer: Peru

This is in the opening song, 'No Place Like London'. This lyric is sung by Anthony. Anthony is the sailor who rescues Todd from drowning off the coast of Australia and, although he's probably been to most of these places, he specifically mentions 'the mountains of Peru'. In this song, and in this lyric, he is saying that all the places he's been don't compare to London (hence, the song's name 'No Place Like London').

5. Who was Sweeney Todd's first victim?

From Quiz 2007 Movie of "Sweeney Todd"

Answer: Pirelli

Signor Adolfo Pirelli was the first murder victim of Sweeney Todd. He was also the creator of Pirelli's Miracle Elixir. Todd killed him because he remembered who Todd really was. The part of Signor Adolfo Pirelli was played by Sacha Baron Cohen (who also played Borat). He sung the song "The Contest".

6. At the beginning of the movie, Mrs. Lovett warned Sweeney Todd that she likely baked the worst type of what treat in all of London?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd" (2007) Facts and Fun

Answer: Pie

Sweeney Todd visited Mrs. Lovett early on in the film and she baked him a pie while she sang a song. She informed him that it likely would be the worst pie he had ever tasted in all of London. She also stated it would take a lot more than ginger ale for him to wash out the disgusting taste of the pie from his mouth.

7. "Wait what's your rush what's your hurry? You gave me such a fright. I thought you was a _______."

Answer: ghost

8. Fill in the missing lyric from "The Worst Pies in London": "Is that just disgusting? You have to ______ it. It's nothing but crusting. Here drink this, you'll need it..."

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": Lyrics

Answer: concede

During this scene, Mrs. Lovett greets Mr. Todd and offers him some ale and one of her pies, or should I say one of the 'Worst Pies in London'? She knows, as well as anyone else who tastes her pies, that they are disgusting because the price of meat is too high.

9. Mrs. Lovett takes Sweeney upstairs and shows him his silver razors. What finishes his quote?: "Well, I've come home to find you...and we're together, and we'll do ______. Won't we?"

From Quiz 2007 Movie of "Sweeney Todd"

11. Who was Judge Turpin's ward?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd" (2007) Facts and Fun

Answer: Johanna

Near the beginning of the movie, Anthony was in front of a huge home and asked a nearby beggar woman if she knew who lived there. She answered him by stating it was the residence of Judge Turpin. She also claimed that Judge Turpin's ward, Johanna, lived there as well. It was revealed in the movie that Judge Turpin falsely convicted her father of a crime as well as raped her mother. As Judge Tarpin's ward, Johanna was only able to look out at the window.

12. The following two lines are sung at the same time. Which two people sang these lyrics: "Soon you'll know splendors you never have dreamed" and "Splendors you never have dreamed."

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": Lyrics

Answer: Mr. Todd and Mrs. Lovett

In this scene, Mrs. Lovett reunites Mr. Todd with his razors for shaving, as he used to be a barber prior to being sent away for a crime he did not commit. While he is singing to his razors, Mrs. Lovett is singing to him. He missed his razors, and she missed him. He is telling his razors that they'll know splendors because once again he'll be using them.

13. Who is the only person Tobias Ragg sees drop through the chair chute?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": A Compilation

Answer: Beadle Bamford

After Beadle falls through the chair, Toby, Mrs. Lovett's apprentice, is surprised and terrified, and hides in the sewer. Toby is not seen again until he comes out of the sewer to kill Mr. Todd. Beadle Bamford is the Judge's second in command. He always does what Turpin tells him to and is always courteous in adressing him. This is shown with a humorous exaggeration in the song, "Ladies in Their Sensitivities", where Beadle says the phrase "my lord" fifteen times, even though this is the shortest song throughout the movie.

14. Who is Judge Turpin's helper, or right-hand man?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": The 2007 Movie

Answer: Beadle Bamford

He is also commonly known as 'the Beadle'. He helps the Judge in all of his schemes, and acts as his advisor in court. He's evil, but not as evil as Turpin.

15. Who made "the worst pies in London"?

From Quiz 2007 Movie of "Sweeney Todd"

Answer: Mrs. Lovett

Helena Bonham Carter played the part of Mrs. Lovett. Mrs. Lovett was a widow. Her husband had died. In the beginning she told us that many people came to buy her meat pies, but as the years went on less and less people came into her pie shop, and as she said in "The Worst Pies In London", times were very hard.

16. When Anthony first met with Judge Turpin, he claimed he could not find which location?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd" (2007) Facts and Fun

Answer: Hyde Park

Anthony spoke with Judge Turpin at his home and he claimed that he kept getting lost while looking for Hyde Park. Judge Turpin asked him to sit down and have something to drink. While they spoke, Judge Turpin confronted Anthony about the way he looked at Johanna. When Judge Turpin threw Anthony out of his home, he told him the direction to Hyde Park.

17. Who sings about their "cage" and how it is "damask and dark"?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": Lyrics

Answer: Johanna

Johanna only sings one song in the entire movie, and that is "Green Finch and Linnet Bird". While in the actual stage play, Johanna does sing more than once, they cut out several songs and parts in the movie to save time and focus more on other characters. Johanna is singing about her 'cage' because she is locked in the house where she resides and is not allowed to do anything.

18. Who tells Anthony 'who the girl in the window' is?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": The 2007 Movie

Answer: Lucy

Of course, this girl is Johanna, and you discover this in the song 'Alms, Alms'. Lucy is the beggar woman, whom you later discover is actually Todd's missing and crazy wife, and the mother of Johanna. She doesn't remember any of this though, because of the poison she drank when she attempted suicide.

19. What was the name of Sweeney Todd's wife?

From Quiz 2007 Movie of "Sweeney Todd"

Mrs. Lovett told him that Lucy had poisoned herself after he had been sent away. Todd was very upset to hear this news. He said that all he wanted to do was to come home to a loving family - poor Todd. Johanna was Todd's daughter. Jayne was the actress who played the part of Johanna. Mrs. Lovett was the meat pie maker who became Todd's partner.

20. Who did Anthony ask for help with springing Judge Turpin's ward from his home?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd" (2007) Facts and Fun

21. Who said..."Who's up for a free shave"?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd" Lyrics

Answer: Sweeney Todd

Answer: Mischief

The old beggar woman notices that something isn't right and she sings about it.

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": A Compilation

This is the last part of the song, which takes place directly after Todd has his chance to kill the Judge and they try to decide what to do with the body of Pirelli.

25. Who beats Anthony to a pulp in the beginning of the movie, after he first sees Johanna?

From Quiz "Sweeney Todd": The 2007 Movie

Answer: The Beadle

Under Turpin's command, he beats Anthony for watching Johanna in the window, as a warning never to show his face on that street again. Anthony, of course, does not follow this rule, he returns to that street numerous times, to observe and rescue Johanna.

From Quiz 2007 Movie of "Sweeney Todd"
