00:00Music
00:22Miss Bennet
00:26You are quite unlike anyone I have ever met
00:31You speak your mind with a refreshing directness
00:35And you do not force yourself to conform to society's ideals
00:39I imagine it will come as no surprise when I say I
00:45Have developed the greatest affection for you
00:53I cannot understand why a man such as Mr Ryder would propose to Mary
00:57Oh shush, perhaps he won't
01:00Mother may have got her hopes up for nothing
01:02We shall never know his intentions if you two keep talking
01:06What is happening?
01:07Mr Ryder and Mary are in the library and appear to be having a serious conversation
01:12I suppose most women of better looks and livelier character were already taken
01:15It cannot be a match driven by passion
01:18Not all matches driven by passion turn out well
01:21Lizzie, I cannot hear what they are saying
01:23Will you all just be quiet?
01:27In these past few days, I have felt a deeper understanding between us
01:36I believe you felt it too
01:38I took to heart the things that you said
01:43And you must
01:45For I believe we should be very happy together
01:49Miss Bennet, I have a mind to go abroad to Italy
01:54Somewhere with a lake in front of me and a mountain behind
01:59Lakes are usually found in mountainous areas
02:02No, although some are found in dormant volcanic craters
02:05I cannot imagine going to Italy without you
02:08Miss Bennet
02:10And therefore, I wondered
02:15Whether you might do me
02:17The greatest honour
02:19Of coming with me
02:23Well, I...
02:24We could read poetry all day
02:27And drink wine all evening
02:29Oh, I do
02:30I like poetry
02:31And I like wine
02:33What we have loved, others will love
02:35And we will teach them how
02:37Let us teach each other
02:40I don't speak any Italian
02:42But I suppose I could learn
02:44That's the spirit, Miss Bennet
02:46This is why we are such a strong match
02:48You have the courage of my convictions
02:53How so?
02:54You understand the appeal of living boldly
02:58Living with freedom
03:00Unburdened by the shackles of marriage
03:03Sorry, just to be very clear
03:06So you're suggesting that I live with you
03:10In Italy
03:12But that we remain unmarried
03:17Yes, exactly
03:18Together
03:20But free
03:24For what woman wants to be owned in such a way?
03:28Oh
03:30What do you say?
03:34I don't know what to say
03:37Of course, of course
03:38You must sleep on it
03:40But if you accept
03:42We could leave for London tomorrow
03:43And plan our trip to Italy
04:07Well, Mary?
04:09Come, Mary dear
04:11Who would have thought you'd make such an excellent match?
04:14No, he didn't propose
04:17Mama
04:18What do you mean he did not propose?
04:21I mean that he called me in there to talk about a sermon
04:29On good works
04:31Mary, this is no time for one of your poor attempts at humour
04:35Mama
04:36Mr Ryder showered you with attention
04:39Only to pull you aside to discuss a sermon
04:44Well
04:44We shall see about that
04:47I am sure Mr Ryder will make his intentions clear in his own time
04:51Yes
04:53Yes, he will
04:55Mary
04:57I shall choose your dress for supper
05:00Perhaps something of Liz's
05:02Hmm
05:03Hmm
05:08Uh, interestingly
05:10Charlotte
05:12Mr Collins
05:14It looks as though you were all waiting for us
05:16We were not
05:17Mrs Bennet, I am pleased to see you looking so well
05:20I see you didn't rush to pay your respects
05:23Do not wish to impose?
05:26How are you?
05:27All
05:28I long to know everything
05:30Well, there is something of a situation involving Mary
05:34Thank you, Lydia
05:34We were just getting ready for supper
05:36Come
05:38Ha
05:39Yes
05:41Ha ha ha ha
05:42Thank you
05:43Ha ha ha
05:44You sit up straight, dear
05:47Mary is looking very well tonight, Mr Ryder
05:51Do you not agree?
05:52I do indeed
05:53My daughters are a handsome set
05:56They most certainly are
05:58More wine, Mama
05:59This is the wine you requested
06:01And only one unmarried
06:04Did you hear Charlotte's news of Longbourn, Mama?
06:07In the drawing room we have opened up an orange room
06:09How did you enjoy your ride this afternoon, Mr Ryder?
06:12Mmm, it was very pleasant
06:14Excellent company
06:16Mother, Mr Darcy and I are thinking of holding a dinner in honour of your recovery
06:21Mmm
06:23Very good idea, Lizzie
06:25Was it your horse, Miss Bennet, that picked these blackberries where it came?
06:30Is that what she was doing this afternoon?
06:32Well, if it is, I feel quite terrible now for having dragged her away
06:35So you should
06:36You are, but delicious
06:37Have you always lived in London, Mr Ryder?
06:40I have
06:41Although, my plan is to move to Italy
06:44Quite soon
06:45Italy?
06:46How long for?
06:48To settle for the rest of my days
06:49Or for as long as my fancy takes me
06:53Well, wherever you choose
06:55You will need a knowledgeable companion by your side
06:59As you know, Mary reads a great deal
07:03She has a very well-informed mind
07:05Though do not let that put you off
07:07Miss Bennet is an extraordinary young woman
07:10Young
07:11Why Italy?
07:12For its history
07:13Its beauty
07:15To wake up each morning to a view of a mountain
07:18Ah, er, in reality mountainous regions play havoc with one's rheumatism
07:22Well, I think that sounds quite perfect
07:25It really does
07:28You find Longborn tedious with its draughts
07:30I hardly think you would cope in mountains
07:33I will never know, will I?
07:38I did not know you spoke Italian, Mr Ryder
07:46I am quite looking forward to the peace and stillness of a foreign lad
07:51Yes
07:53Yes, it would be most welcome
08:06Mary?
08:11I remember very well being the subject of mother's plotting
08:15It is quite a lot to bear
08:17Yeah, isn't it?
08:21Engagements can take time
08:24It is no small decision
08:26And important not to rush
08:28If Mr Ryder does not propose
08:30You must not think it is a reflection on you
08:33Mr Ryder has already proposed
08:38Mary, that is excellent news
08:42Isn't it?
08:47It was a kind of proposal
08:52Oh?
08:54Mr Ryder proposed that I live with him in Italy
08:59Reading poetry and drinking wine
09:03That sounds quite perfect
09:04It does
09:05Doesn't it?
09:06It does
09:07I think I'd very much like to travel
09:09I would certainly rise to the challenge of a new language
09:13I have to give him my decision tomorrow morning
09:16Well, what did you mean by a kind of proposal?
09:21Mr Ryder believes that we should go to Italy
09:27But remain unmarried
09:31He proposed that you should be his mistress?
09:34Not in those words
09:35I have never heard such a suggestion in my life
09:37Oh, well, sadly
09:37Lizzie, I think most of us will never find ourselves in a romantic situation as perfect as yours
09:41But he insults you
09:42He does not
09:43Oh, Mr Ryder believes that women shouldn't be owned in such a way as marriage
09:48So he prefers a modern arrangement
09:49I'm sure he does
09:51One that is far more convenient for him
09:53If he tires of this arrangement, he can easily move on
09:56Whilst your reputation is ruined forever
09:59Do you think he will tire of me?
10:01Of course not, Mary
10:02I...
10:04Marriage is the only thing a woman has to protect herself against such difficulties
10:08Tell me you are not seriously considering his offer
10:13I mean, I've begun to think
10:15I'm not...
10:16I'm not much suited to conventional life
10:21I've always been the odd one out
10:26Oh, I know
10:27I know the scandal would be huge
10:28I know Mother would be mortified
10:30But Mr Ryder
10:32He treats me well
10:34He makes me laugh
10:35He is...
10:36He is interested in me
10:41And I could escape
10:56Mr Ryder is clearly fond of you
11:01And it is admirable
11:03That he has his own way of seeing the world
11:10But you deserve better than this offer
11:16Lizzie
11:18You have grown up with no shortage of suitors
11:20And you're at home, too
11:23You have always been...
11:24Mary, we've had largely the same upbringing
11:26No, no
11:27We may have grown up in the same house
11:29With the same mother and father
11:30And the same sisters
11:31But your experience of life has been wholly different to my own
11:36You were celebrated
11:38And you were...
11:39You were respected
11:40I was not
11:43I mean, for the rest of you
11:44Even in your worst moments growing up
11:46You could look to me and think
11:49At least I'm not Mary
11:51That's not true
11:52It's absolutely true
11:54But I always admired your strength
11:56That you never cared what Mother or any of us thought
11:59Of course I could
12:00Of course I could
12:01Well, you always did things your own way
12:02That was the only way I knew
12:11Mary, all I want is to protect you
12:15Or protect yourself
12:16From whatever shame I might bring on the family
12:22How could you think such a thing?
12:39Do you love Mr. Ryder?
12:42Oh, yes
12:42When do you think such a thing?
12:47Angry, ergon withนะคะ
12:47Oh, yes
13:02Then you drop it
13:07Will you close your eyes
13:07When you've been asleep
13:08I don't appreciate it
13:08Let you think, baby, let you know
13:08Oh, yes
13:10What aスト
13:10Choose your eyes
13:10Devil
13:28Ah, good morning, Miss Bennet.
13:31Good morning.
13:32And it is a perfect morning for travelling.
13:41I have enjoyed these last few days with you enormously.
13:46You have been a beam of light in the darkness, and I do not know what I would have done
13:53without
13:53your company.
13:55I have felt the same way.
14:03But I cannot accept your interesting proposal.
14:13I thought you and I were aligned.
14:17I appreciate how important your ideas are to you.
14:20I know how strongly you feel about freedom in love, but, well, I am still very much bound
14:34by the expectations of society.
14:39And the expectations I have for myself.
14:47Of course.
14:49I see.
14:52Goodbye, Mr. Ryder.
14:58My best wishes to your family.
15:32Good morning, Mary.
15:34Mother.
15:36I trust you slept well last night?
15:39I did, yes.
15:41You must keep up your strength.
15:43Who knows what today may bring?
15:47Ah, here he is.
15:50Oh, what are you doing here?
15:52Oh, I was...
15:54Do join us, cousin.
15:56Where on earth is Mr. Ryder?
15:59Ah.
15:59Er, Mr. Ryder has left.
16:01Don't be ridiculous, Mr. Collins.
16:03He has no plans to leave.
16:05I saw him.
16:06Er, I saw him climb into his carriage and go.
16:11Mary?
16:12Yes, Mr. Ryder has left.
16:14He's left.
16:15Bemberley.
16:15Did he make you an offer of marriage?
16:20I will not be marrying Mr. Ryder.
16:25I will not be marrying anyone.
16:28What did you do?
16:30I'm sure Mary didn't do anything.
16:32Why is everything with you so relentlessly disappointing?
16:39Beautiful morning.
16:53Mother, I am sorry if I have disappointed you.
16:59I sometimes think you delight in vexing me.
17:02I do not.
17:05It is not too late.
17:08Too late.
17:09Too late for what, Mother?
17:11To write to Mr. Ryder and beg his forgiveness.
17:15His forgiveness?
17:17For whatever it is you did that drove him away.
17:22Oh.
17:23Do you really believe a man of such means will come along again for you?
17:29But I...
17:30Do you think the gardeners will have you back when they hear what you have done to Mr. Ryder?
17:35Mother...
17:35If you will not write to him and ask him to return, then I shall write to my brother and
17:41tell him you are obliged to stay here with me.
17:46If you are incapable of taking advantage of the opportunities London Society offers you
17:52in finding you in finding you a match, then you shall remain here with me instead.
17:57And you shall remain here with me.
18:24Then,ç”±ome.
18:26Can you try to bring to your � Deaf question for you?
18:27And...
18:27Good luck, thank you, honey.
18:29Good luck with mother.
18:30Bye to you, honey.
18:56You make it worse.
19:07Mary, don't do that.
19:11Sorry, mother.
19:14You endlessly try my patience.
19:21Enough.
19:22No, no, but please, help.
19:38Do not leave on my account, Miss Bennet.
19:43Sorry, I cannot provide good company today.
19:49I've noticed you've been most subdued of late.
19:52If I can be very help, do you say we men of the cloth can offer the most useful counsel?
19:58Thank you, Mr. Collins.
20:01I am, I'm...
20:03I'm often alone myself.
20:05Mrs. Collins has so many duties and preoccupations that she has very little time left to spend with me.
20:11Oh.
20:12It seems I have the habit of frustrating her, as I tend to do everyone.
20:20No, not at all, Mr. Collins.
20:25My father often commented that I was worthless.
20:28I thought a great deal about turning myself into something different, someone easy and obliging, but...
20:38Somehow, I...
20:39I can't.
20:42I've always struck the wrong note with people, even in childhood.
20:49I felt the same way many times.
20:53I...
20:54I think you have much to offer, Mr. Collins.
21:00Ah, excuse me.
21:02I realise I'm now burdening you with my troubles.
21:04No, no, not at all.
21:08What are you reading?
21:10Hmm?
21:11Oh, er...
21:13Aristotle.
21:16I'm...
21:17looking into the question of happiness.
21:23Happiness?
21:24Hmm.
21:26What it is.
21:28How one might find it.
21:33Do you, um...
21:34Do you have an answer?
21:37Well...
21:38I'm not quite sure.
21:40I...
21:41I've found some points of interest.
21:45Please, would you tell me what you know, Mr. Collins?
21:49Oh, er...
21:50What I've discovered seems to suggest that it is only through self-knowledge that genuine happiness is experienced.
21:59Through self-knowledge?
22:00Hmm.
22:00I...
22:01I think it is only when we have examined and understood our strengths and weaknesses and been honest enough about
22:08what we truly desire from life,
22:11only then do you have any chance at all of retaining happiness.
22:17So, what Aristotle is saying is that our happiness is in our own hands?
22:28Yes.
22:29Oh.
22:30I think so, yes.
22:32Interesting thought, isn't it?
22:35It's most interesting.
22:44It must be Mr. Ryder coming back to try again!
22:51Oh!
22:57Oh!
23:01Oh!
23:02Uncle...
23:02Mary!
23:05Jane!
23:16You reminded us of the importance of protecting our health, and so Edward and I have decided to spend some
23:24much-needed time in the lakes.
23:26Wonderful, quite wonderful.
23:28All that wind would play havoc with my nerves.
23:31And we were wondering whether Mary might join us.
23:35Mary?
23:35Yes, we thought perhaps Mary could join us in the late and then return with us to London.
23:40Elizabeth wrote to us explaining that Mary was without much to occupy her here.
23:45She has a very good occupation. She is my companion.
23:49I think it's a very sensible idea for Mary to get some fresh air.
23:52Oh, do you now? What do you think, Mary?
23:55Mary will not leave me.
23:57She knows I do not have many years left.
23:59And she wants to spend this precious time at my side.
24:03Isn't that right, Mary?
24:07Mother, Mr. Darcy and I have arranged a new companion for you.
24:12She's called Susan.
24:14Susan?
24:15Am I to be looked after by a Susan?
24:19We very much enjoy Mary's company.
24:22As do I.
24:23And knowing her passion for words were...
24:25She is forbidden to leave.
24:31Aunt.
24:33Uncle.
24:35Thank you for your invitation.
24:42I would be delighted to join you.
24:44What do you mean?
24:46I think, dear sister, she means she will be joining us in the Lake Districts.
24:50What a good idea.
24:52A good decision, Mary.
24:53Well done.
24:54A most excellent decision.
24:56Always good to challenge oneself.
24:57Oh, do be quiet, Mr. Collins.
25:00Well done, Mary.
25:02Well done.
25:03You should probably go and pack.
25:05I will help.
25:07Oh!
25:19I envy you.
25:22You envy me?
25:24The lakes.
25:26London.
25:27I never did experience much of life.
25:30It is a bold and brave decision, Mary.
25:33And for what it's worth, I think it's the right one.
25:41Forgive me, Charlotte.
25:42I don't want to speak out of turn.
25:46I mean, I often have.
25:50Only you seem...
25:54quite unhappy.
26:03When my mother told me the only choice for a woman was marriage or misery,
26:09she negated to tell me it was possible to be both married and miserable.
26:17Yes, well, my father let us in on that particular secret some years ago.
26:22Yes.
26:23But I do believe that
26:26if you look a little under the surface,
26:29you will find more to Mr. Collins than you imagine.
26:38Goodbye, Mother.
26:41I will write.
26:44As you wish.
26:48Susan!
26:51Susan!
27:01Mary, I am so sorry if you have ever felt that I was ashamed of you.
27:07For I am not.
27:09I am very proud of you.
27:19I am so sorry if I am so sorry if I am so sorry.
27:20I am so scared, Lizzie.
27:23What if I made all the wrong decisions?
27:31Mary, you will flourish.
27:48I had made my escape and would not look back I did not know what was next but I
27:56knew that I could not return to live with my family ever again
28:05I have something for you thank you mr. Collins
28:30could it be that I decide my future
28:34I felt sure that the lakes would offer me a chance for peace and reflection
28:38oh Mary I ought to have told you Tom Haywood will be joining us in the lakes
28:44I should have known that my life was never that simple
28:48thank you
