Withnail & I - Marwood Quotes

Marwood (first name: Peter) has been described by Bruce Robinson as having a very generous role in the film... “He doesn’t have the fireworks like Grant, he doesn’t have the laughs; he’s setting up the laughs for Withnail all the time.”

The official screenplay includes quotes that didn't make the film.
