Prompt:
"Why insult someone when you can say something nice in a very sarcastic tone?"
Maggie Smith as Violet Crawley in Downton Abbey
Write about insults and/or Maggie Smith. Also, if you wish, how would you show a sarcastic tone of a character in a story?

How sad I was to hear the news of Maggie Smith’s demise. My husband and I have been fans of her since her role in the Prime of Miss Jean Brody. We immediately looked to see what movies of hers were streaming and rediscovered The lady in the Van on Amazon Prime.
What a performance. She must have been already eighty years of age when this movie was made. It brought us both to laughter and tears. It is based on a true story and I recommend it to anyone.
The script writing was great and sarcasm abounded but the written word is hard pressed to show sarcasm, it is in the telling.
