Passport to Pimlico - 2004 version?
Ian Tindale:
Why was the original film called "Passport to Pimlico"? Terry Harper: The point was that you needed a passport to visit Pimlico... Yeah, but that doesn't really answer Ian's point: I mean, a passport isn't to a specific place... Note that people also say things like "your passport to adventure". I think the answer is that back in the days when passports were relatively rare and it was a big deal to have one, a passport *might* be good only for a specific place. Presumably whoever chose the title just liked the way it sounded by using "to". -- Mark Brader "Look, sir, we can't just do nothing." Toronto "Why not? It's usually best." -- Lawrence of Arabia My text in this article is in the public domain. |
