00:00And so it begins, the crumbling of the polished façade, the unravelling of the carefully
00:15curated life we've built for ourselves, free of scandal and inconvenient truths, of hidden
00:26desires and secret longings, but should they emerge, do we let them lie, or do we pursue
00:35them, and are we prepared for the consequences?
00:43Who's bossed that lady that just called?
00:48Did she upset you?
00:51No, no, not at all, I just, um, come here and take your linkters.
00:56But it's horrible.
01:00Oh, so is whooping cough.
01:05Now, go and do your reading.
01:07Go.
01:07So, I was thinking, Mama, I need a new riding coat, so should we visit Miss Louisa today?
01:22Oh, er... I think not. She mentioned last night she's booked up for several months in advance. Well, she'll fit me in. And I want to take some bonbons for the children. No. No?
01:37No. Their mother may not want them to have sweet things. It's so sad, Grandma Ma. Her father died before they were born and she had to bring them up all alone. So brave.
01:44Yes, very commendable. All the more reason not to overburden her. Are you joining us for the opera tonight?
01:51What is it? Traviata?
01:58All that weeping and wailing annoys me.
02:00June, you should wear the pink silk. I've invited the cartarets to our box.
02:05Why? So we can all become better acquainted.
02:25So we can all become better acquainted.
02:27Why?
02:28So we can all become better acquainted.
02:41June must be thrilled.
02:43So many young men clamoring to dance.
02:45What a picture she looked.
02:47That gown was a triumph.
02:48Almost a disaster, but the girl worked wonders.
02:51Girl?
02:52You were ogling her, remember?
02:54That little chick a bit.
02:55You might have introduced me.
02:56I took care not to.
02:58She seemed awfully thick with Jo.
03:00The dressmaker?
03:01Who's this?
03:02Pretty young thing.
03:03Quite charming.
03:03Remind me, why she was thick with Jo?
03:06Well, perhaps he was thanking her for saving the day.
03:08Can you get an appointment with her?
03:10That's what I'm hoping for.
03:12After June's war, everyone will be after her.
03:15Shall we?
03:26What are you doing?
03:29Seeking employment.
03:32I was a typist.
03:34Oh, how demeaning.
03:37I need something to tide me over until I can find a way to pay for Paris.
03:41Oh, you're still persisting with that madness.
03:45Why wouldn't I?
03:54Sir?
03:55Yeah.
03:57Good.
04:03Congratulations.
04:05Very much.
04:06Very much.
04:07Very well done.
04:08Very well done.
04:09Thank you, sir.
04:09Good to see you.
04:10the point is there is no prior instance of a chairman resigning and therefore no precedent
04:18for the eldest son's accession before his father's death so in the case of joe increasingly at odds
04:23with the aims of the firm if it were brought before the board how much further he might deviate
04:27how that could endanger the future of the company sheer insanity of prizing tradition over merit
04:32it's archaic it's wasteful and if it goes ahead and missed opportunity it is not a foregone
04:38conclusion i will insist it be brought before the board in the meantime we build the case against joe
05:08i saw her at the ball last night the girl from venice
05:22louisa how did she come to be there she makes gowns tunes gown
05:30well she's a widow she lives in soho do you have any idea no not an inkling
05:35will you see her again i don't know
05:40were you told who to marry
05:49i chose freely
05:52your father was my first love and when he died i was sure i would never get over him
06:02but he did nothing compares to first love we persuade ourselves the fever is real
06:08and then if we're lucky we meet our true soulmate and discover something more
06:17profound so papa's your soulmate like magnets perhaps the attraction of opposites
06:26gentlemen today i can announce that foresight and co has been offered a unique opportunity
06:41my old friend sir jimmy buckland has finally succeeded in his scheme to deploy a tribe from
06:46upper india to the gold mines of salon carried in the teeth of great difficulties it should
06:51double the output of his mines and quarter the lives of his workers well whether one expires of
06:56miserable old age on one's own barren soil or prematurely of damp at the bottom of a foreign
07:01mine i hardly of small consequence as long as it benefits the shareholders well i imagine it's
07:06some consequence to the widows may i continue thank you sir jim as a personal favor to me
07:17has given us advance notice so that we may use the information to our advantage
07:21by offering our clients and indeed ourselves the chance to invest it is quite literally a golden
07:30opportunity it's a risk which we have an impeccable record for calculating still feels like gambling to me
07:40are we agreed yes agreed yes adjourned
07:54i'll be back later i have an appointment anyone we know no
08:10is it to your taste
08:24i could admire the tonal qualities but no it doesn't move me may i ask what does
08:31a more vibrant style something which captures the fleetiness of a moment rather than preserves it in
08:37an aspect you're a romantic my stepmother says i'm utterly unfit for decent society your crime
08:46i dance the polka the waltz the ballet
08:53my mother was a dancer and i seem to have inherited her talent passion there i said it now's your chance to
09:01escape and yet as you see i'm still here
09:17so no escape from what the opera the carter it's the scheme to throw me to the wolves horatio
09:35oh isn't he more of a poodle
09:43well look who i have i know she's not mine but i take her with me when i'm feeling vexed or miserable
09:50and she always cheers me up is that why you got her
09:54she was a gift from a friend someone i met in italy
10:04an attachment short-lived let me guess she wasn't suitable you were forbidden to pursue her we just
10:12went our separate ways and then you met mama yes i'm not sure i want to fall in love sounds like torture
10:24well they can also be magnificent
10:33joe never seems to learn i was today in the boardroom wittering on about widows and gambling
10:40oh poor cyril how he frets when he knows i'm going out shall i stay behind and pet him for you
10:45oh dear no that would defeat the whole purpose of the evening the purpose being to dangle june and
10:49die before the carterets and hope they bite what he fails to grasp is the need for us to be led by
10:54sound commercial nurse darling we simply want you to find someone who deserves you we were to
11:00maintain our position as london's premier brokers the board should be worried and you look so handsome
11:05the board will be worried she won't be able to resist you i will make sure of that
11:19so glad you could join us lady carteret oh my dear to be seen in the company the illustrious
11:38foresight who wouldn't leap at the chance lovely to see so many young people but sad to think
11:48they're seldom masters of their own fate i like to think we take their views into account tradition
11:54is what counts stability no impulsive changing of the guard
12:02but sometimes is it not a fresh perspective that is exactly what is needed provided the
12:06proposed candidates up to the task i understand you're an avid reader but i
12:15have you read frankenstein uh no i you'll find you have some sympathy for the creature
12:22no will of its own forced to do another's bidding until of course it rebels
12:27ah you seem to have left my wife at home perhaps i could prevail on your father or you could just not
12:41drink
12:45oh my cousins mama i might just um of course
12:55i do beg your pardon are you hurt
13:11do i look like a damsel in distress on the contrary are you with friends family my mother thinks this is
13:19the place to meet the right people would i fall into that category i seriously doubt it do i sense a renegade
13:31june foresight
13:34philip bussini

13:49the
14:06the
14:08I adore Chaviata.
14:29Makes one positively melt, don't you find?
14:38I adore Chaviata, sorrini, alisea,
14:46and then it's the end of the night.
14:53ORCHESTRA PLAYS
15:23Did you miss me, Pudding?
15:31Oh, don't suck.
15:33I promise I'll make it up to you.
15:35Always affecting, Traviata.
15:38Lost love and all that.
15:43Perhaps we should be celebrating love found.
15:46Perhaps we should.
15:53Can you believe June tonight?
16:07Determined not to cooperate.
16:11The Carterets, our plans.
16:15Will you speak to her?
16:18Saying what?
16:20That there's a time and a place for everything.
16:23And the time for June is now.
16:29She's 18.
16:32She has to put away childish things.
16:38She worships you.
16:40If you tell her, we would only ever choose someone worthy of her.
16:48But perhaps you think your father made the wrong choice for you.
16:51I made the choice.
17:04I made the choice.
17:04One, two, seven, four, nine, four.
17:06I met the choice.
17:07I said I אם止.
17:08Because I gave her to you.
17:21Okay.
17:22And I didn't know.
17:22I don't know what so.
17:23I feel like you say it's theirças above you.
17:24I'm not afraid.
17:25You must go.
17:38I can't bear to leave you.
17:42Your family needs you.
17:44Your father has summoned you home.
17:47And I return.
17:50Where will you be?
17:52Florence, Rome?
17:55Well, you write to me.
17:57Tell me where you'll be.
17:58Joe, stop.
18:02Let's not pretend.
18:06What?
18:07These past few months...
18:09Have been the most precious of my life.
18:11And mine too, but...
18:14I always knew they would come to an end.
18:18Why must they?
18:20Because I am a lady's maid and you're a gentleman.
18:23I want a new gentleman that unmarried a lady's maid.
18:29You're dreaming.
18:33Believe me, I'm not.
18:37If you still feel this way in a year's time...
18:40I feel the same way in 50 years' time.
18:47Then I have your address.
18:49It's all right.
18:55Wherever you are...
18:58I'll come to you.
19:00I'll come to you.
19:00I'll come to you.
19:02I'll come to you.
19:19Bye.
19:28Bye.
19:29Bye.
19:30Bye.
19:31Bye.
19:31Louisa. Louisa, please.
19:51Please, keep your voice down.
19:54My assistant is asleep.
19:58Why have you come?
20:01Honestly, I don't know.
20:07To prove you aren't a figment of my imagination.
20:13Or to see the only person who ever completely understood me.
20:19Did. We are very different now.
20:22Yet here we are.
20:31Do you still paint?
20:40Really.
20:42It's one of the many things I gave up to serve the God of Commerce.
20:47Sad to hear it.
20:48Well, tell me about your husband.
20:53Late husband.
20:55Is there any point in...
20:57Well, were you happy?
21:01Did you love him?
21:02Uh, that's...
21:08It's my assistant.
21:09Um, do you sleepwalks?
21:11You must go.
21:14Please don't come here again.
21:15Yes, sir.
21:27You must go.
21:34More.
21:34I don't know.
22:04I don't know.
22:34I don't know.
23:04I don't know.
23:34I don't know.
23:36I don't know.
23:38I don't know.
23:40I don't know.
23:42I don't know.
23:44I don't know.
23:46I don't know.
23:48I don't know.
23:50I don't know.
23:52I don't know.
23:54I don't know.
23:56I don't know.
24:00I don't know.
24:02I don't know.
24:04I don't know.
24:06I don't know.
24:08I don't know.
24:10I don't know.
24:12I don't know.
24:16I don't know.
24:18I don't know.
24:20I don't know.
24:22I don't know.
24:24I don't know.
24:26I don't know.
24:28I don't know.
24:30I don't know.
24:32I don't know.
24:34I don't know.
24:36I don't know.
24:38I don't know.
24:40I don't know.
24:42I don't know.
24:44I'm convinced he has Miss Carteret in his sights.
24:48Parcheter told me he's on the river this afternoon with a picnic.
24:52Which can only mean an imminent announcement.
24:55I'm sure we can all agree Olivia Carteret is an excellent choice.
25:00Certainly fits the bill for a man destined to be chairman.
25:05Miss Heron, we've known each other a matter of weeks.
25:09So I have no right to question any choice you might make.
25:11But today when I heard you speak of Paris.
25:13You've got me rash, irresponsible.
25:15Far from it.
25:16I understood the impulse.
25:18The desire.
25:19And I recognized that I wish to encourage it.
25:22Encourage?
25:23It's true that Paris has a somewhat shady reputation.
25:27Though I myself found it captivating.
25:30You've been.
25:31In my youth.
25:33And would not be averse to visiting again.
25:35If you were there.
25:38Though my family.
25:40My family.
25:41Well no doubt they disapprove.
25:42Perhaps.
25:43We needn't tell them.
25:44Mrs. Forsyte.
25:45I hope I'm not disturbing you.
25:46Won't you take a seat?
25:51I've always been curious about you.
25:52The girl who first captured his heart.
25:55Not that he ever spoke of you.
25:56One just instinctively knows.
25:57One just instinctively knows.
25:58The girl who first captured his heart.
26:02One just instinctively knows.
26:03That one wasn't the first.
26:04One just instinctively knows.
26:05One just instinctively knows.
26:06That one wasn't the first.
26:07What made you come to my house?
26:08You begged me to.
26:09And you were curious.
26:10What made you come to my house?
26:11You begged me to.
26:12And you were curious.
26:13What made you come to my house?
26:14You begged me to.
26:15And you were curious.
26:16And hoped to see him.
26:17I've never attempted to see him.
26:18I've never attempted to see him.
26:19I've never tried to contact him.
26:20I've never asked him for anything.
26:23Does she mean that a woman brought you up in the house?
26:24You asked her to stay around the house.
26:26Mrs. Forsyte.
26:27If the girl who first captured his heart.
26:27At $247inas.
26:28But?
26:29I wonder if to take a seat?
26:30Other things.
26:31It would book a person since.
26:32Good.
26:33What made you come to my house?
26:35As the girl who first captured his heart.
26:38Not that he ever spoke of you.
26:40One just instinctively knows.
26:42But one wasn't the first.
26:44What made you come to my house?
26:45You begged me to.
26:46And you were curious.
26:47And hoped to see him.
26:48Does he know about the children?
26:50No.
26:52You understand he never can.
26:54It would ruin him.
26:56In his business, reputation is everything.
26:59And in mine.
27:01I came here with nothing, single-handedly raised...
27:04These two children, whilst building a business,
27:07do you seriously imagine that I wish to endanger my own good name?
27:09And should he try to see you?
27:14I will tell him to go away.
27:18I can't.
27:48I thought your scrawling days were long gone.
28:05Something you wanted, Sam.
28:07Perhaps you should give it all up.
28:09Quit the grind and daub away to your heart's content.
28:14Perhaps I should.
28:16Why don't you?
28:19Ask my father or yours.
28:21Of course.
28:24You're here to save us.
28:27How noble.
28:32Good day to you, Sam's.
28:45What did I say?
28:47First time we boxed at Oxford.
28:49I never make it as a fighter because I like it as a man.
28:54Remind me why we became friends.
28:56Because we both needed a punch bag.
28:58And I was missing size.
28:59So, brother, a number of us have been speaking and we're keen to hear Joe's vision for the company.
29:10Vision?
29:10Ahead of the vote.
29:13What vote?
29:15There'll be no vote.
29:16The decision is mine.
29:17Yeah, but it must be ratified.
29:19It's tradition.
29:20Eldest son to eldest son.
29:22Well, with respect.
29:24Well, you broke with tradition when you pushed Joe into the chair before your demise.
29:28Even so...
29:29I mean, surely.
29:31You want all the board to be fully behind the new appointment?
29:34Don't think I don't know what you're about.
29:38You have your eye on the prize for Soames.
29:41I think we both know he's the better man for the job.
29:53Isaac.
29:54Just curious.
29:56Did you pick up any sense from the other partners what they think of Joe's promotion?
30:00I know what I think.
30:04Tell me.
30:06He's passionate.
30:07Struggles to compromise.
30:09But that's why this company needs him.
30:13In ten years, he's never let you down.
30:18I don't believe he ever will.
30:22Thank you, Isaac.
30:30Your father just told me.
30:38Beggars believe the idea of a vote.
30:41Expected.
30:43Well, you know James is setting you up to fail.
30:45Quite.
30:47Disappoint him.
30:50You have the vision, the ability.
30:54You deserve it.
30:56We deserve it.
30:57So let's be very considered about our next move.
31:03I'll throw it away in a moment of madness.
31:05I'll throw it away in a moment of madness.
31:11I'll throw it away in a moment of madness.
31:13I'll throw it away in a moment of madness.
31:15I'll throw it away in a moment.
31:20Cyril, paw, paw, paw, Cyril, paw, paw.
31:29Ah! Well done, Cyril.
31:32That's so funny.
31:33You're a clever dog.
31:38Someone's looking pleased with themselves.
31:40Happy Miss Carteret.
31:42Happy Soames, if it's any sense.
31:44Which I'm certain he does.
31:46Well, I mustn't be late.
31:48I told June I'd take her with me, but Frances has forbidden her to go.
31:51Get where?
31:52The dressmaker, Mrs Louisa.
31:55Who also does wedding gowns.
31:57Why did Frances forbid her?
31:58No idea, but she was absolutely insistent.
32:00June is not to go.
32:02Well, I'm heading into town myself. Can I drop you?
32:04Silk Street in Soho.
32:06There's a jewellers nearby. Won't you join us?
32:09Thank you. No. I will make my own arrangements.
32:17My dear, are you quite well?
32:23Yes.
32:26That is, a matter has come to my attention.
32:31I'm not quite sure how to manage it.
32:37That will be, um, Mrs Darty?
32:40Uh, is Mrs Burnham home?
32:52Children, put those down. Come here.
33:00Hello.
33:02Are you...
33:02My children, yes.
33:03Yes.
33:03Yes.
33:10And their father?
33:14He died.
33:15A long time ago.
33:17Before we were born.
33:21How old are you?
33:22Ten.
33:23Hannah, take the children.
33:24But, Mama, please do as I say I need to speak.
33:27With this child, I'll come to you soon.
33:28Who is their father?
33:45Is he dead?
33:48Is he?
33:49As good as.
34:02Dear God, Luisa, you couldn't think to tell me.
34:05What should I have said?
34:08No claim on you.
34:09We barely knew each other.
34:11I saw myself for what I was.
34:14A diversion.
34:17I loved you.
34:18You desired me as I desired you.
34:21And what we had was, was brief and careless.
34:25And could never have come to anything.
34:30You should have looked for me.
34:32After Venice.
34:33You knew my family.
34:34You knew my name.
34:34I did look for you.
34:36When I knew I was with child.
34:38I had every intention of seeking you out.
34:40So why didn't you?
34:42I read about your marriage in the newspaper.
34:44What else could I do but make my own arrangements?
34:50Earned enough to set aside for my confinement.
34:53I took in mending, embroidery, anything I could to provide for my child.
35:00Children, as it turned out.
35:01But if you told me.
35:03Then what?
35:04You had a wife, a stepchild, a family name.
35:07Is that supposed to be your guilty secret?
35:12Better to find my own means to provide for my children.
35:17Our children.
35:21Our children.
35:24They can never know.
35:28Please don't make this difficult.
35:30Our lives need not be thrown into disarray simply because we happen to meet again.
35:44As you wish.
35:49But at first I'd like to see the children again.
35:53Don't do this.
35:56Please let me see them, Louisa.
35:57Please.
36:13Children, come here.
36:18And it is certain the children are his?
36:23Beyond doubt.
36:27And he doesn't know.
36:29Does anyone?
36:30Nor must they.
36:32James and Soames especially.
36:33Indeed.
36:35How trustworthy is this girl?
36:37Could she threaten to expose him?
36:38I don't believe she will.
36:40She's posing as a widow.
36:42Good.
36:42And a respectable dressmaker.
36:45So we are confident the matter will go no further?
36:49We are.
36:57Come.
36:59This is a friend of mine.
37:09Hello.
37:12I'm Joe.
37:14How funny.
37:15So am I.
37:18But everyone calls me Joss.
37:22May I call you Joss?
37:23I'm Holly.
37:30I know he looks older.
37:32But we're twins.
37:37It's a pleasure to meet you, Holly.
37:40Are you crying?
37:44Yes, I am crying.
37:45Are you sad?
37:50No.
37:53I'm happy.
37:57Happier than you can imagine.
38:01Sorry.
38:04I don't wish to scare you.
38:06That's the last thing I want.
38:08Please, you must leave.
38:10I have clients to you.
38:12The back door, this way.
38:13Please don't come here again.
38:41I'll see you at dinner, Pa.
38:42I'll see you at the end.
39:08Bye.
39:09Bye.
39:10Bye.
39:11Bye.
39:11Bye.
39:12Bye.
39:12Bye.
39:12I was told you were looking for me.
39:26I came just now from Soho.
39:29Yes?
39:30From the dressmaker, Louisa.
39:33She and I knew each other years ago.
39:36I'm aware.
39:39I've seen her myself.
39:42Then you know about...
39:43The children.
39:44Yes.
39:50Nothing about their existence is simple.
39:57And clearly there are consequences.
40:00Yes.
40:02The possibility of discovery.
40:06How it can be used against you.
40:08Just as we're in touching distance of everything we've worked for.
40:16We're a partnership.
40:18A family.
40:20Let's not complicate or compromise.
40:24We can put all of this behind us and go on as before.
40:26I don't think you understand.
40:30I can't go on as before.
40:33Before, I was unaware.
40:35But you're under no obligation.
40:36I can't wish away two human beings, Francis.
40:42You mean to acknowledge them?
40:45I mean not to know their existence.
40:47I mean not to know their existence.
40:59For now.
41:02Promise me.
41:04No one need know.
41:07It would be catastrophic.
41:10For you as chairman.
41:13For us as a family.
41:14For me as your wife.
41:15I promise.
41:26How could you?
41:27Why does it take care of them?
41:29Depending on my job.
41:30Why does it take care of me?
41:30Why does it take care of myself?
41:32Why is it take care of myself?
41:34Would you ask if I didn't take care of myself?
41:36I have mercy in my friends, I have mercy in my home.
41:37I have mercy in my care.
41:38If you're in care of myself, transfers.
41:40I will never leave you in the hospital.
41:40Then I will try to new, when I una gefährdome.
41:41If you're in the hospital allow me to let them out,
41:42which will make me see you with this again.
41:47And what you do?
41:50I will make it look full of myключash.
41:51How would you tell me to make me?
41:51If I want to know your familyري...
41:54I w resort to be there and see her rest Lord.
41:55Share your daughter.
42:55I knew her before your mother and I had met.
43:07But it makes no difference to us. You're still my beloved daughter.
43:10Except now I have to share you.
43:11No.
43:12Mama has to share you.
43:13No.
43:13It's her, isn't it, Luisa? The one who gave you this?
43:29Forgive me, Miss Herron, but in the spirit of our recent conversation, I wanted to bring you a gift.
43:55Oh, they're beautiful. Oh, thank you.
44:07I hope they might speed you on your way to Paris and the fulfillment of your desires.
44:15Oh, Mr. Forsyte, you've been such a friend to me.
44:19I hope so. I do. And yet, with your permission, I would like to think of myself as more than a friend.
44:36Forgive me. I am well-schooled in matters of business.
44:45Less so in matters of the heart, which, to be frank, has never been touched by a single soul until...
44:59Believe me, I never intended to speak so soon, but your imminent departure...
45:05I can no longer leave unsaid what I've known from the moment I saw you.
45:15You are my heart's desire.
45:18I cannot imagine a life without you.
45:24Mr. Forsyte, this is...
45:27unexpected.
45:28But not, I hope, unwelcome.
45:32I...
45:32To be truthful, I'm...
45:36a little astonished. We scarcely know each other.
45:39But what we do know might lead us to be... hopeful.
45:44Perhaps.
45:46Um...
45:50Then let me say one more thing.
45:55I'm convinced we could be happy.
45:58But if you find we cannot...
46:00Though, God help me, I'll move heaven and earth to make us so...
46:05I will release you, and you will be free.
46:11That's...
46:12Very generous.
46:15But if you agree to our engagement...
46:18We will go to Paris together.
46:21And from there, plan our future.
46:23And it will be all that you've dreamed of.
46:28And more.
46:36Just imagine, Cyril...
46:38Dear Soames engaged, and replacing Joa's chair.
46:44That day could be closer than you think.
46:47Come on, child.
47:08Spit it out.
47:09Earth...
47:10Do you know...
47:11Do you know what she's doing?
47:12Do you know what she said?
47:13Go, go, go.
47:43Go, go, go.
