The title of a film from a year or so ago, 'Dirty Pretty Things': I was wondering if the 'dirty pretty' expression was coined by the film's screenwriter or whether it's been used before. Also there's a track on Alex Parks' album from last November called 'Dirty Pretty Words', so I was wondering if the title of that song had been drawn from the film, or whether the expression had been around before the film anyway.

Whosoever draws his sword against the prince, must throw the scabbard away.
