00:00:30¶¶
00:00:59Evening, sir.
00:01:10How is she?
00:01:11She's still hot, but she's sleeping.
00:01:18That's something.
00:01:22I believe there's no danger, sir.
00:01:30I'm sorry.
00:01:41How is she?
00:01:42Much the same.
00:01:44I still don't think the doctor, though, do you?
00:01:46No.
00:01:47Though he should not go out all the same.
00:01:49Neither of you?
00:01:50No.
00:01:51I'll, um...
00:01:52I'll write them a line.
00:01:55That's a poor dude.
00:01:56They may be that side, but they're still family.
00:01:59You can carry the flag, Dad.
00:02:01Through the valley of death.
00:02:03Well, I hope you know what you're doing, playing Cupid.
00:02:15Introducing our Winifred to that darty fellow.
00:02:18Is he a good sort?
00:02:20Yes, he is, uncle.
00:02:21At least, all the ladies think so.
00:02:24Thank you, governor.
00:02:33Courage, mon brave.
00:02:35They'll adore you.
00:02:37Not now.
00:02:38Soames?
00:02:39Come on, Monty.
00:02:47Of all people, it's Soames who should carry on the family name.
00:02:52Cart before the horse.
00:02:54What are your thoughts about a wife, Soames?
00:02:57None as yet, but I assure you, Cousin George, you'll be the first to hear.
00:03:01That one will chime in.
00:03:03I'm sorry, auntie.
00:03:05Find yourself a wife, Soames, dear.
00:03:08Young Jolion sent a very kind apology, Julia.
00:03:12I so hope it's not serious.
00:03:14Oh, serious?
00:03:16Um, little girl, Jill.
00:03:18Oh, dear, dear, dear.
00:03:20Slight fever.
00:03:21Nothing to worry about.
00:03:22You must be worried, Jolion.
00:03:24Children all over, dying of diphtheria.
00:03:26A slight fever.
00:03:28Children get fevers.
00:03:30Don't know why that means they couldn't come.
00:03:31The governess is there.
00:03:32People worry too much.
00:03:33Very attractive there, governess.
00:03:36June, don't sit on her.
00:03:38Oh, all right.
00:03:40Is she French?
00:03:45I think you can go out now, after all.
00:03:49It's, um, rather late now.
00:03:50The cousin's engagement party is awkward to turn up at this hour.
00:03:57I'm sorry, sir.
00:04:00Oh, I don't really mind.
00:04:02And Mrs. Forsyte?
00:04:05She will be upset?
00:04:06I-I don't think you and mistress particularly minds.
00:04:10I-I don't think you and mistress particularly minds.
00:04:19Are you happy, Helen?
00:04:20You-I do so want you to be happy.
00:04:33Yes.
00:04:37Which, of course, I am.
00:04:41course I am. June's improving. Will you go up to her? Not just yet. Why? I don't wish
00:05:01to see Miss Hilmer at present. Why not? Because quite frankly she irritates me. Whenever I
00:05:10see her, she appears on the brink of a spiritual collapse. She wasn't born for a
00:05:14servant's life. She's not a servant. Oh come Francis, what else is a governess when
00:05:20all is said? The Reverend Scholes said in his sermon last Sunday, what shall it
00:05:32profit a man if he gain his own soul and lose all his property? Which is fine of
00:05:37your skulls as he has no property. Ladies and gentlemen, look at her speech. On this
00:05:48auspicious occasion, I would like to... Well, the point is, Winifred, God bless her, but
00:05:58she's the finest filly I've ever clapped eyes on. No, it won't spare her blood. She is, ladies and
00:06:02gentlemen. More than that, she has breeding and pedigree. Yeah, yeah. Was he brought in
00:06:08settlement? She has consented to be my wife. Further, my future father-in-law, thank you,
00:06:14sir, for welcoming me into your family. To your daughter. Parents, had they been here, would
00:06:18have rejoiced, sir, to join the name of Forsythe to that of Darty. Proud as you like, sir. And so,
00:06:25ladies and gentlemen, may I propose a toast to Miss Winifred Forsythe. Winifred. What are the
00:06:36Darties? Unfortunately dead. Morning, Mr. Sames. Morning. Morning, sir. Morning, Mr. Sames. Morning,
00:06:44sir. Morning. Morning, sir. Morning, sir. Morning, Mr. Sames, sir. Mr. James and Graham? Yes,
00:06:51in your office. And with a slight dyspepsia, I would say, sir. Morning, father. Yeah, morning.
00:06:57Yeah, I'm not sure about that mutton. Emily will get Welsh. Now, then, it's Darty. What do you think?
00:07:03Good-looking fellow. There's his mind. He's plausible enough. Spirited. Talks why not.
00:07:09He's bringing nothing. Well, it's not his fault his parents died, I suppose. Winifred's fond.
00:07:17What are you settling on, her? I was thinking 10,000 to be increased with children.
00:07:21More. More. Less.
00:07:27Outright? And you think not outright.
00:07:33Not for life, then. Not for life, even.
00:07:40You're worried about him. You question his nature.
00:07:51When one looks around the park, Freddie, one can't help thinking about your family.
00:07:59All your uncles and aunts dotted around.
00:08:01Freshly picnic spalling.
00:08:03It feels as if, between them, they own half of London.
00:08:06I think they almost do.
00:08:09Dash bad luck in our family.
00:08:11All I need's a bit of cash to start me off, and you'll see, Freddie.
00:08:14Your family will own one half of London, and I'll own the other.
00:08:18Is that what'll happen once?
00:08:19Once your papa coughs up.
00:08:22The way I see it, it's not so much what James's money will bring to me,
00:08:27it's what I'll bring to James's money.
00:08:28Daddy's not settling on me, Monty.
00:08:34What?
00:08:35No.
00:08:37We're to find a house, which he'll rent for us, and I'll get an allowance.
00:08:43But as for basic settlement, it's no go, I'm afraid.
00:08:47I don't understand.
00:08:49I'm afraid that's the case.
00:08:50But what I mean to say...
00:08:56Oh, don't be upset.
00:09:01What is it? Doesn't trust me? What's the game?
00:09:03Well, we will have a house.
00:09:04Which he'll rent, so it's not ours.
00:09:07Oh, yes.
00:09:10There's a fellow who'll make his way in the world.
00:09:12I know.
00:09:16It's a bit thick, old girl.
00:09:20Are you very furious?
00:09:24It's not what a fellow expects.
00:09:28The trick is to just draw what you see.
00:09:32No.
00:09:34I can't do that.
00:09:35Anybody can do it.
00:09:37Children are the best artists.
00:09:40They just draw them straight from the soul.
00:09:44It's easy.
00:09:47I'd be flattered if you drew me.
00:09:50I'd be flattered.
00:09:54June, are you coming?
00:09:58Hello, Dad.
00:10:00I thought you were out.
00:10:03No.
00:10:07I wasn't.
00:10:08We'll pick up on this later.
00:10:19I'll pick up on this later.
00:10:28I don't think so.
00:10:39All right.
00:11:10That woman should go.
00:11:33I have done nothing.
00:11:35And if somebody has accused me, that somebody is the most despicable liar.
00:11:40Who is it?
00:11:41Nobody has accused you.
00:11:42Is there something to accuse you of?
00:11:46I swear there is not.
00:11:48A governess.
00:11:51If you mean that I show the young lady respect and consideration, then yes.
00:11:55I stand accused of that.
00:11:56She should go.
00:11:58She has nowhere to go.
00:12:00Why should she go?
00:12:01Can you say that your behavior towards her has been beyond reproach?
00:12:05Yes.
00:12:05Good.
00:12:06That's why she should go.
00:12:08Before there is something to question.
00:12:12Will you tell her to leave?
00:12:15Frances, what reason can I give?
00:12:19Your reason is that I'm asking you.
00:12:21She does not need a reason.
00:12:22She does not need a reason.
00:12:52I've been asked to let you go.
00:13:08Oh, I'm not surprised.
00:13:12I wasn't born for this kind of life.
00:13:14I know I can be resentful sometimes, but I never expected to find myself in this situation.
00:13:22The quality of your work is not in question.
00:13:25Oh.
00:13:27I see.
00:13:28I hope Mrs. Forsyte will provide me with a character.
00:13:34You don't understand that it...
00:13:36There's been an implication that my conduct towards you has been improper.
00:13:45And I've denied any impropriety, which, as you know, has been the case.
00:13:57In my mind, I'm guilty of the grossest misconduct.
00:14:01I believe that misconduct can only happen where there's no love.
00:14:15It's my belief.
00:14:16I don't know what you are.
00:14:36I don't know.
00:14:37I don't know.
00:14:38Oh.
00:14:38Oh, my God.
00:15:08Whatever was between you, Jolyon, I'm prepared to ignore.
00:15:20We will not talk about it, and we will go on as if nothing had happened.
00:15:27Until this evening, nothing had happened.
00:15:33What?
00:15:38Be careful.
00:15:45Please be careful.
00:15:46Frances, I am truly sorry.
00:15:52I am leaving you.
00:15:55We married in haste.
00:15:57I am not prepared to discuss this in front of a servant.
00:15:59There is no servant here.
00:16:00You don't know what you're saying.
00:16:01Frances, is there love between us?
00:16:08Is there passion?
00:16:12We have a daughter.
00:16:18You can all do well.
00:16:20You are an excellent mother.
00:16:22Do you intend to leave her, too?
00:16:23Well, how could I take it from you?
00:16:25Why are you doing this to me?
00:16:28Why have you brought her in here?
00:16:33I would give anything not to be cruel.
00:16:34I feel more for Hélène than I have ever felt for you.
00:16:46That is such a disgusting thing to say.
00:16:50But you feel nothing for me.
00:16:51We can at least have honesty and respect.
00:16:54The master and the governess.
00:17:06I love him.
00:17:07You love him.
00:17:09And yet you say there's been nothing between you.
00:17:12Yes.
00:17:13I cannot believe it.
00:17:15Until tonight, there's been nothing between us except...
00:17:20Except?
00:17:21Except?
00:17:21Except?
00:17:21Except?
00:17:24A recognition.
00:17:29What do you mean?
00:17:30We recognized.
00:17:37There is a bond existing between us.
00:17:43Is it really so easy?
00:17:46What do you mean?
00:17:48Is that all it takes?
00:17:51A recognition.
00:17:54Look, we must be honest.
00:17:57You never wanted me.
00:17:58Of course I wanted you!
00:18:01But how come one show everyone is certain to be rejected?
00:18:05Don't touch me!
00:18:06Don't touch me!
00:18:06I need you to leave me, Jolyon.
00:18:18I'll stay at my club.
00:18:30Frances, I am so sorry.
00:18:34Frances, I am so sorry.
00:18:37It was not your fault.
00:18:42There was no recognition.
00:18:44Hello, Dad.
00:18:46I'll say this to once.
00:18:55You knew Frances four months before you married her, and that was on the rebound from Chloe.
00:19:12I mean, you've known this woman for how long? Six months, yeah?
00:19:19And you throw up everything for her, your wife, your child, your home.
00:19:25And in a couple of years, you see another pretty petticoat,
00:19:28and you'll be doing it again.
00:19:30You're susceptible, Joe. You need to know that and to fight it.
00:19:33It's not like that.
00:19:36If you have this sort of leanings,
00:19:38there are ways you can deal with them you wouldn't talk to me about.
00:19:42You're married for life
00:19:46to a very good person.
00:19:51And you're breaking her heart.
00:19:54I know.
00:19:58A little jewel?
00:20:03What do you know about this woman?
00:20:07I know what I feel for you.
00:20:10Oh, shitty!
00:20:12Silly!
00:20:14Silly fellow.
00:20:19Now, if you force me to chew, it should be on your own.
00:20:21I won't run with the hair and hunt with the hounds.
00:20:24I'm reducing your allowance.
00:20:25300 of you.
00:20:27No.
00:20:27Maybe no.
00:20:27You'll get what you're given.
00:20:29I want nothing.
00:20:30You must give it to Francis.
00:20:31How will you do?
00:20:35Well, I'll work for a little.
00:20:36It'll probably do me good.
00:20:38You'll be the damn dogs.
00:20:39Well, I hope not.
00:20:43Don't do this, my boy.
00:20:47The whole world will know.
00:20:49She's a governess.
00:20:51Look at the scandal.
00:20:51I'm sorry, Dad.
00:21:03That's it, then.
00:21:05My house is barred to you, boy.
00:21:07Simple as that.
00:21:08I can't see you.
00:21:09I lost you sir.
00:21:19Goodbye, Miss Hilmer.
00:21:42Goodbye, Parfitt.
00:21:43Why is Miss Hilmer still here, Parfitt?
00:21:45The carriage is to take her to her lodging, sir.
00:21:48Well, you can get her a cab.
00:21:50And take those things out of the hall.
00:21:51There's a servant's entrance.
00:21:53Oh, had you forgotten?
00:21:54Very good, sir.
00:21:58Goodbye, sir.
00:22:00Goodbye, Carola.
00:22:09Goodbye, I'll be right back.
00:22:19Goodbye.
00:22:21The girl with the dark hair and the alabaster skin.
00:22:36What's her name?
00:22:39Irene Heron.
00:22:41Her father died this year.
00:22:44No money.
00:22:46Will you introduce me to her?
00:22:48If you wish.
00:22:51Miss Heron, how nice to see you again.
00:23:07Mr. Liverser.
00:23:08May I introduce Mr. Soames Foresight?
00:23:11Miss Irene Heron.
00:23:13Miss Heron, delighted to meet you.
00:23:15Mr. Foresight.
00:23:16Mr. Foresight is from London.
00:23:18Excuse me.
00:23:19Liverser.
00:23:20Oh, dear.
00:23:21Excuse me.
00:23:21We have a word.
00:23:22After you.
00:23:24You're the very man I wanted to see.
00:23:25I have a proposition to make to you.
00:23:27I think you'll find it.
00:23:28May I?
00:23:28Yes.
00:23:31Yes, indeed you are.
00:23:37I'm told you've recently lost your father.
00:23:40Allow me to offer my mercy and serendomances.
00:23:44I've attended one or two of these gatherings.
00:24:01Here in Bournemouth, they're at the edge of what's respectable for those in mourning.
00:24:05I'm sure no one would take offense.
00:24:07Some would.
00:24:08Some do.
00:24:10Well, mourning is a delicate matter.
00:24:12Introduce me, Irene.
00:24:14Mr. Foresight.
00:24:16My late father's wife, Mrs. Heron.
00:24:19I'm pleased to make your acquaintance, Mr. Foresight.
00:24:22That was all mine, Mrs. Heron.
00:24:26Better get back.
00:24:30It's been enchanting, Mrs. Heron.
00:24:35Mrs. Heron.
00:24:36He seems to kill me.
00:24:51He seems to kill me.
00:24:51Excuse me.
00:25:10Excuse me.
00:25:11Excuse me.
00:25:43They walk most mornings on the pier.
00:26:01Mrs. Heron, would you object to my walking with you?
00:26:06It would be most agreeable.
00:26:09Are you from our part of the world, Mr. Forsyte?
00:26:12From London.
00:26:13Park Lane.
00:26:14In business?
00:26:15I'm a solicitor in partnership with my father.
00:26:18This is my first visit to Bournemouth.
00:26:20We hope not your last.
00:26:22I could very well recur.
00:26:25Good.
00:26:25Good night.
00:26:26Daddy.
00:26:27Good night.
00:26:30Good night.
00:26:32Good night.
00:26:43Good night.
00:26:43Irene, I shall walk alone today.
00:27:03Very well.
00:27:06I'm sure you'll miss me violently.
00:27:13I'm sure you'll miss me violently.
00:27:43I'm sure you'll miss me violently.
00:28:13You're quite well.
00:28:14Thank you, yes.
00:28:16Your stepdaughter?
00:28:17A slight indisposition.
00:28:19Oh dear.
00:28:20But well enough to play the piano rather beautifully, I must admit.
00:28:25I should very much like to hear her.
00:28:27We must arrange it.
00:28:28Did I express my condolences on your sad grievance, Mrs. Heron?
00:28:32I'm sure I understood you to have.
00:28:35It was rather a shock, Professor Heron passing so suddenly and leaving us so little provided for.
00:28:41I have barely 50 pounds a year for Irene, for example.
00:28:45For a young woman, I'm sure you will appreciate Mr. Forsyte. It's rather...
00:28:49more expensive.
00:28:51Yes, it must be a concern for you.
00:28:54Mr. Forsyte.
00:28:56Yes, Mrs. Heron.
00:28:58There is no Mrs. Forsyte, I take it.
00:29:02No, Mrs. Heron.
00:29:03There is to be an exhibition of paintings tomorrow at the pavilion.
00:29:10Irene and I will be attending at 10 o'clock in the morning.
00:29:13I will be attending at 10 o'clock in the morning.
00:29:43I think its place is everywhere.
00:29:59Do you admire this painting, Mrs. Heron?
00:30:04I do.
00:30:06You don't find it rather modern?
00:30:09It has vigour and honesty.
00:30:14But is it accomplished as a work of art?
00:30:17If you mean is it strictly representational, then clearly not.
00:30:21But look at the life in the trees and the vibrant colour.
00:30:25There is such a strong sense of the artist in it, don't you think?
00:30:28I believe that whoever painted it has a passionate feel for beauty.
00:30:34Yes, yes, and for life.
00:30:40Within a well in one's hallway, for example.
00:30:41I suspect that the majority of hallways would entirely disgrace it.
00:30:50There is a lot of light.
00:30:51There is a lot of light.
00:30:52A lot of light.
00:30:53There is a lot of light.
00:30:54There is a lot of light.
00:30:55There is a lot of light.
00:30:56I have to leave my card at the door.
00:30:57I have a deliverable.
00:30:58He is a man of good character and considerable substance.
00:31:01You know nothing about him.
00:31:03I know a great deal about him.
00:31:05I have made enquiries.
00:31:06Clearly we are not suited.
00:31:09It's been a pleasure.
00:31:10Mrs. Herron.
00:31:11Miss Herron.
00:31:12The last London calls.
00:31:13We are so sorry.
00:31:14Well, I shall be returning to Bournemouth next week.
00:31:15Perhaps you will do us the honour of calling.
00:31:16Miss Herron?
00:31:17Mr. Forsyte.
00:31:18Mr. Forsyte.
00:31:39Oh, by the way, that landscape you admired.
00:31:46I have bought it.
00:31:48For your hallway, Mr. Forsyte.
00:31:53Well, until next week.
00:31:58Your father left us fifty pounds a year.
00:32:08Do you know how much these mourning clothes have cost?
00:32:11And that's before we even start to think about living.
00:32:19What people do at times like this is we move to a larger house.
00:32:22Do we need a larger house?
00:32:23I would like to own somewhere.
00:32:25I'm happy to rent.
00:32:27But for you and the children, Elena,
00:32:28I mean, if something happened to me, it would all be provided for.
00:32:31We can't afford to buy.
00:32:33Don't worry, Jo, as long as she don't let anything happen to you.
00:32:37It was implacable Forsyte.
00:32:40My father has never even seen his grandson.
00:32:44Probably never see this one.
00:32:46Yes, we do need to move.
00:33:01It's quite clear, you see.
00:33:06Your grandfather's will states that the interest should be paid to you quarterly.
00:33:11But that the capital must remain intact.
00:33:13It also states the capital can be touched in an appropriate circumstance.
00:33:17My point is this is such a circumstance.
00:33:19I'm about to have a second child and we need a larger home.
00:33:23Well, what does you say?
00:33:25Well, forgive me.
00:33:27Forgive me.
00:33:28I can think of no more appropriate circumstance than the need for a house.
00:33:31For that woman.
00:33:34For Hélène and our children.
00:33:37Quite.
00:33:38And you see, this is where there is a problem,
00:33:39because the will is again clear that such a circumstance
00:33:42should be decided at the discretion of the trustees.
00:33:44Of course.
00:33:45The trustees being Mr. Septimus, small, deceased, and my father.
00:33:49Discretion, as you'll appreciate, involves rather more than expedience.
00:33:54It involves conscience.
00:33:57And uniquely, in this case, the good name of our family.
00:34:01Do I take it there is a moral dimension to this discussion?
00:34:05You'll be paid the quarterly instalments, as we discussed.
00:34:08You have no fear in that matter.
00:34:10Good day to you, Forsyte.
00:34:20And to you, Forsyte.
00:34:25Are you still doing your sketching?
00:34:27I used to like one or two of your things.
00:34:40Good afternoon, sir.
00:34:41Good afternoon, sir.
00:34:42Good afternoon
00:36:07That really was accomplished and delightful.
00:36:12I don't know what the girl's done with the tea.
00:36:29Do you excuse me, Mr. Forsythe?
00:37:15I'm so sorry.
00:37:17I'm afraid I cannot accept.
00:37:19i'm aware this has come suddenly yes but you see i've made up my mind

00:40:43yes and then suddenly your time is up
00:40:45and what yesterday would have seemed a fearful callousness has become respectable it is such hypocrisy
00:40:50mm-hmm we must dance we must dance now
00:40:55so ask george clear waltz the waltz what are you thinking of dancing of course what else
00:41:00minifred miss heron here is in mourning it is absolutely not the done thing
00:41:04oh sam you're such a stick monty you ask him
00:41:07some things old boy are best left to the ladies when to dance is one george i demand a waltz
00:41:12soames ask miss heron to dance this is impossible oh then i will miss heron would you do me the honor
00:41:30a shade ventures it may i think answer why soames has not proposed to her such recklessness
00:41:39means he must question her character i'm so terribly sorry it's not like our own at all
00:41:47wouldn't afraid to believe we're disapproved i believe so too imagine the outrage if they
00:41:52knew i was in an interesting condition i see foresight we can't have this

00:54:45This is true exile.
00:54:47It's cruel.
00:54:49And so typical.
00:54:50Well, they stick with their own, Helen.
00:54:54It is, uh, well, outside.
00:55:01What will happen to June?
00:55:05She'll be fine.
00:55:07She'll now be the whole focus of Dad's life.
00:55:13I'm so sorry.
00:55:20I feel such a sense of guilt.
00:55:22Oh, don't.
00:55:28You understand what this means.
00:55:33We can be married now.
00:55:37Will you marry me?

01:00:02Your mama didn't.
01:00:04No fault of hers.
01:00:08Graham?
01:00:09Graham?
01:00:10My dear.
01:00:11I have something to say.
01:00:16I rather thought you had.
01:00:18There is a certain person.
01:00:24Ah?
01:00:25Ah?
01:00:26What do you mean?
01:00:29Ah.
01:00:30I don't know what I mean.
01:00:32Well, anyway, there is.
01:00:34And this person is a man?
01:00:38An architect.
01:00:40How old is he?
01:00:42How old is he?
01:00:4326.
01:00:44And you're 17.
01:00:46What does that matter?
01:00:48Not a hoot.
01:00:50Except I remember certain persons when I was 17.
01:00:54And they didn't matter.
01:00:55And they didn't matter either.
01:00:56And they didn't matter either.
01:00:57He matters a very great deal.
01:00:58Exactly what I should have said of 17.
01:01:00I love him.
01:01:02This is maybe.
01:01:04And I suppose he's penniless.
01:01:06He earned £100 last year.
01:01:07That's what I said.
01:01:08He's penniless.
01:01:09Besides, he doesn't need money.
01:01:11He's so splendid, Graham.
01:01:13He's often lived on cocoa for a week.
01:01:15No granddaughter of mine will marry a man who will feed her on cocoa.
01:01:21I will.
01:01:22You will not.
01:01:23I will.
01:01:24No.
01:01:25Yes.
01:01:26No!
01:01:27Graham, Phil will have money.
01:01:32He's a brilliant architect.
01:01:35I will say yes to an engagement.
01:01:41But you're not marrying until he's on 400 a year.
01:01:48Thank you!
01:01:51Thank you!
01:01:52Thank you!
01:01:53Thank you!
01:02:23Good morning, Smither.
01:02:24Oh, good morning, Miss Anne.
01:02:25And how are we today?
01:02:26Well, enough.
01:02:27I shall get up this afternoon, Smither.
01:02:28Now, the doctor said you must stay in bed.
01:02:29No sense.
01:02:30There is to be a reception for Miss June's young man at Mr. Jolion's house.
01:02:34You're not strong enough.
01:02:35And I shall attend.
01:02:36You're not strong enough.
01:02:37And I shall attend.
01:02:38You're not strong enough, Miss Anne.
01:02:39You're not strong enough, Miss Anne.
01:02:40I shall attend.
01:02:41Oh, very well, Miss Anne.

01:06:15This is Mr. Bussini, Aunt Anne.
01:06:18How do you do, Miss Forsythe?
01:06:19Here, wrap this round you. It'll be a comfort.
01:06:21That's right.
01:06:23You must keep warm.
01:06:24You're a good-looking young fellow.
01:06:27But I doubt whether you're the right lover for dear June.
01:06:32Where is Soli?
01:06:33Aunt Anne?
01:06:34I'm here, Aunt Anne.
01:06:37Well, she feels I'm not right for you.
01:06:38She'll have to call it off, I'm afraid.
01:06:40We are not calling it off.
01:06:43Dear Soli.
01:06:43Thank you, dear Soli.
01:06:44Excuse me.
01:06:45Well, what do you think of him?
01:06:47Oh, June, I couldn't possibly say in his hearing.
01:06:51Well, it's quite splendid.
01:07:00You seem very thick with June today.
01:07:02Laughing and so forth.
01:07:05You'll never laugh or smile with me like that.
01:07:10On Tuesday, she's going to the Royal Academy with Mr. Bussini and invited me.
01:07:13I think not.
01:07:14Are you saying you weren't allowed?
01:07:19If they need a chaperone, they can call one of the aunts.
01:07:22They don't need to bother you.
01:07:23But I should like to go.
01:07:25Then I'll take you.
01:07:26I should like to go with June.
01:07:27I've said you're not going.
01:07:29Are you really going to forgive me?
01:07:30Most certainly.
01:07:32Wives shouldn't mix with young girls like that.
01:07:33She's a senseless thing.
01:07:34I'll take you.
01:07:43I'll take you.
01:08:13I thought I might sleep in the Burlington room.
01:08:22What, tonight?
01:08:23Not just tonight.
01:08:26What on earth are you saying?
01:08:28I don't know, really.
01:08:31Except I don't sleep well as a general rule.
01:08:37You're wanting separate rooms?
01:08:40What about the servants?
01:08:41They'd know.
01:08:43I don't know how you can think of such a thing.
01:08:47Well, if I am able to sleep,
01:08:50then is it really so important that the servants might know?
01:08:54Would know?
01:08:55How does it make me look?
01:08:56You know how servants gossip.
01:08:57Because this isn't about sleeping, is it?
01:09:07I sometimes wonder what your idea of a wife's duty is.
01:09:13I have decided to sleep in a separate room.
01:09:26Does he do anything?
01:09:37You mean such as beat me or drink?
01:09:43No, no, no, nothing like that.
01:09:47Does he see other women?
01:09:53Not that I'm aware.
01:09:54I think one should face the evil.
01:10:08I think one should face the evil.
01:10:08What does that mean?
01:10:10Separation.
01:10:11Separation.
01:10:12Separation.
01:10:13Oh.
01:10:14I have no money.
01:10:17I have no means of obtaining any, and what would I do?
01:10:23You won't say anything, will you, June?
01:10:25Course I won't.
01:10:41Good morning, Julie.
01:10:56Good morning, Emily.
01:10:57No, you can't.
01:10:58You must sit here.
01:10:59Oh, sorry.
01:11:00Where's James?
01:11:01Good morning.
01:11:01Walking to improve your liver.
01:11:03Hester has a headache.
01:11:12A Sunday headache.
01:11:15And Anne?
01:11:18Frail, Emily.
01:11:19Very, very frail.
01:11:21We're concerned.
01:11:22Irine looks pale.
01:11:38She's not.
01:11:39No.
01:11:43Aren't they going to?
01:11:44Julie, I do not possess that knowledge.
01:11:49Anne is so keen that someone should have a son.
01:11:53I should do.
01:11:53No two ways of having.
01:11:54James.
01:11:57Though I suppose with separate rooms, there isn't much.
01:12:01Julia.
01:12:02Separate rooms means two bad habits.
01:12:05No.
01:12:08They don't even share the same bedroom anymore.
01:12:11You mustn't say a word.
01:12:12You must not say a word.
01:12:14Of course I won't.
01:12:16You haven't.
01:12:19Anne Hester doesn't gossip.
01:12:22I won't say a word.
01:12:43I'll never say a word.
01:12:45I'll never say a word.
01:12:45A most beautiful house in a remarkable spot.
01:13:07And I think you'd rather take to Bissinni.
01:13:09Do you?
01:13:09Yes, he's rather a find of mine.
01:13:14You should encourage him.
01:13:15I don't believe Soames Forsyte cares for you except as a possession.
01:13:19I'm not thinking about Soames Forsyte.
01:13:21Life is a dance we must learn.
01:13:34Into the night we will turn.
01:13:38Time holds the secrets of our song.
01:13:43Moments are given, then gone.
01:13:46Come have this dance with me, darling.
01:13:51I'll hold you tight till the dawn.
01:13:55Let the night see how I love you.
01:14:00So the moon can tell the sun.
