Line 6:
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Finch has a lot of fans especially among readers that aren't entirely convinced of V's virtue.
* [[Genius Bonus]]: In the film, when V drops in on Creedy's residence, their conversation is masked by Beethoven's 5th Symphony -- the viewers only hear the first bar but, when interpreted as Morse Code, it's the letter V (...-).
** The first bar of the 5th Symphony opened BBC broadcasts throughout [[WW 2]] as part of the "V for Victory" campaign, making this more of a [[Shout -Out]] or nod of the head than a genius bonus for those with knowledge of the era.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: One of the first actions of open rebellion and anarchy by the citizens against the Norsefire government is when a Norsefire officer [[Moral Event Horizon|kills a little girl]] [[Disproportionate Retribution|for making a spraypainting of V on a Norsefire Propaganda sign]]. On August 7th, 2011, London started suffering from a continuous riot by the population over a police officer shooting someone during a dispute.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: In the film, the Norsefire symbol ressembles a Cross of Lorraine, the Free French Forces symbol. The Free French Forces fought Nazi Germany.
