The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes1970

Holmes:
[after he learns Madame Petrova wants him to impregnate her] This is all very flattering, but surely there are other men, better men.

Nikolai Rogozhin:
To tell truth, you were not the first choice. We considered Russian writer, Tolstoy.

Holmes:
Oh, that's more like it. The man's a genius.

Nikolai Rogozhin:
Too old. Then we considered philosopher, Nietzsche.

Holmes:
Well, absolutely first-rate mind.

Nikolai Rogozhin:
Uh-uh. Too German. Then we considered Tchaikovsky.

Holmes:
Oh, you couldn't go wrong with Tchaikovsky.

Nikolai Rogozhin:
We could, and we did. It was catastrophe.

Holmes:
Why?

Nikolai Rogozhin:
You don't know? Because Tchaikovsky, how shall I put it? Women not his glass of tea.
