Clever V alliteration in speech from V for Vendetta

One of my favorite pieces of dialogue from a movie is the V speech from the movie, V for Vendetta.

There are communication theories in practice throughout the movie; it was a dream for my communications class!

Here it is on youtube:

The speech actually comes through clearer in this first video, which is just the speech with the words crossing the screen, plus it is longer than the movie snippet below:



Actual scene from the movie:

Have you read the original graphic novel? It's been a while since I've seen the movie, but I remember quite a bit more cleverness there than in the film.
