Sycophantic, Phlegmatic and Pusillanimous

More from Look Back in Anger. I had to rewind 4 times to figure out what the hell Richard Burton was saying, and it turned out to be Sycophantic, Phlegmatic and Pusillanimous. Go to Webster's to figure out what he's saying. I'm watching this movie about 2 minutes at a time. Right now, it appears he's decided to be "Angry". Mayhaps is what the title is all about?
