05:45mary
05:47mary
05:52mary
06:12she
06:17Miss Bennett, a letter for you.
06:31Mary!
06:36Mary, where on earth have you been all this time?
06:40I was walking the dog, Mama.
06:43Please.
06:58Who's the letter from, Mary?
07:01From one of my friends in London.
07:04What friend is that, Mary?
07:06Lydia.
07:08What friend is that, Mary?
07:12Her name is Miss Baxter.
07:14Anne Baxter.
07:15I've never heard of Miss Baxter.
07:17Then she surely does not exist.
07:19She most probably does not.
07:21Lydia is being most unkind.
07:23Be alone.
08:09Something seems to be troubling you, Mary.
08:13You seem full of concerns every time we mention London.
08:17Do I?
08:19I thought you would be eager to return.
08:25Does Mother's dog in any way remind you of Mother?
08:33Oh, Lizzie, oh.
08:36I embarrassed myself terribly when I left London.
08:40Caroline Bingley was there.
08:42She was determined to humiliate me.
08:44And I left in such a flurry.
08:47I smashed a bell jar of great sentimental value to its owner, a new friend, Mr Ryder.
08:55And everyone stared at us.
08:58Mary.
08:59No one else will have given it a second thought.
09:02It will seem worse to you, I'm sure.
09:05What person has not done something regrettable in their lives?
09:08You?
09:09You, Jane, Kitty, Lydia.
09:12Lydia?
09:14Oh, no.
09:15No, Lydia has.
09:17I can assure you, we all have.
09:22Anne wrote to tell me not to worry.
09:25You see?
09:26She's become a dear friend.
09:28She has something of an understanding with another good friend of mine, Mr Tom Haywood.
09:37Mr Haywood is, he's, he's just the kind, kindest man.
09:44I see.
09:47And have you met any gentlemen that have taken your eye?
09:51Me?
09:51No.
09:52Oh, no.
09:53No.
09:54London is, it's actually entirely without any eligible men.
09:58And I think I have to believe I'm not, I'm not really the marrying sort.
10:03Nonsense, Mary.
10:13A visitor for Miss Mary Bennet.
10:19Mr Ryder!
10:21What are you doing here?
10:23Miss Bennet.
10:24I hope you and your family won't consider this a great imposition, but you left London with such haste.
10:31Miss, I was most worried about your mother and wanted to offer my support in your hour of need.
10:38How do you do, Mr Ryder?
10:41Mrs. Bennet?
10:43Why, it is a pleasure to see you looking so well.
10:48I usually look much better than this, though my recovery has been quite extraordinary.
10:54I am, I'm glad to hear it.
11:00Miss Bennet, won't you introduce me to your sisters?
11:03Uh, uh, um, yes.
11:05Uh, this is Mrs. Elizabeth Darcy.
11:08Um, this is, this is Kitty Boncock.
11:10How do you do?
11:11Mrs. Jane Bingley and Mrs. Lydia Wickham.
11:13I'm enchanted to meet you all.
11:15How do you know Mary?
11:17Miss Bennet and I met at a soiree in London and share a similar taste in despicable crime pamphlets.
11:25Oh!
11:28Anyway, I was en route to visit my aunt, Lady Catherine de Burr, and wanted to pay my respects.
11:34Well, let us not stand upon ceremony.
11:38Elizabeth will arrange for us to take tea in the garden.
11:41Uh, Mr Ryder, do join us.
11:43No, I'm, I'm sure Mr Ryder will have more important matters to attend to.
11:48I have time.
11:51Are you well enough, Mama?
11:53Yes, thank you, Jane.
11:54I am perfectly well enough.
11:56Uh, Mary, take Mr Ryder to the garden.
12:00Uh, Lydia will deal with the dog.
12:02What?
12:03Mr Ryder, if this is about the real jar, I must.
12:10I have always felt that what a lady puts in her garden is so terribly important.
12:16Yes.
12:17Roses, of course.
12:18Of course.
12:18Your favourite flower?
12:20Well, I must say, I think we're all right.
12:22Yes, it's a good point.
12:30My turn!
12:34I see you forgot to mention Mr Ryder in your reports from London.
12:39You also forgot to mention how handsome he is.
12:43I mean, I've not really noticed his looks, I'm sure.
12:47Oh, he's come an awfully long way to see you.
12:50He's probably just thirsty.
12:52And nearby.
12:53Mary.
12:54What?
12:56Oh, you must stay with us, Mr Ryder.
12:59Oh, you must stay with us, Mr Ryder.
13:00Especially with the weather turning as it may well do.
13:02Do you not agree, Lizzie?
13:03You would be most welcome, Mr Ryder.
13:05Oh, that is very kind.
13:08Come, Miss Bennet.
13:09Show us your skills.
13:15Oh, you must stay with us.
13:16That's not what I am.
13:17It's a good start.
13:19Excellent.
13:21Well done, Mary.
13:23Yes.
13:24Bravo.
13:29I was sorry to see you leave London in such a hurry.
13:35Sir Ryder, have you come here to discuss, you know, the...
13:42Yes.
13:44Yes, Miss Bennet.
13:45I believe I have.
13:46I've been wondering whether to write to you on the subject.
13:49Oh, I wouldn't expect you to lead the conversation, Miss Bennet.
13:52Mr Ryder, are you here to talk about the bell jar?
13:57I'll correct you.
13:59The bell jar?
14:00What did you say?
14:02Miss Bennet, please do not trouble yourself over that.
14:06But it was your father's.
14:08I thought you'd be upset.
14:09Not at all.
14:10Please think no more of it.
14:23It is a pleasure to meet your family.
14:26Yes, my sisters are exceptional.
14:30I know.
14:31As are you, Miss Bennet.
14:34Oh, no.
14:35I am much more...
14:38I find it most refreshing that you do not fawn over potential husbands or...
14:44Have your mind constantly set on finding a match?
14:49Well, no, no.
14:51I don't really...
14:52I don't give it much thought.
14:55You lack artifice.
14:56Your qualities shine out.
14:58They're not corrupted by the false polish of the world.
15:04She's a...
15:05Observations of a very, very personal nature.
15:08Well, I have a very low opinion of the petty rules to which we submit ourselves in the name of
15:12good manners.
15:14Did you know that?
15:15I think you may have mentioned it once or twice.
15:18I believe, Miss Bennet, that our inability to say what we mean is one of the great curses of our
15:25age.
15:26We hide behind a thousand disguises that we like to call politeness.
15:32Hmm.
15:48Mr. Darcy sends his apologies.
15:50He has a seasonal headache.
15:52Oh.
15:53Hmm.
15:54Mr. Ryder, tell us about yourself.
15:57Mary mentioned you are an avid reader.
15:59Oh, uh, of poetry, perhaps.
16:02I find longer works are usually not for me.
16:05Really?
16:06I think the brevity of poetry is one of its principal attractions.
16:10I agree.
16:11Wholeheartedly.
16:13I only wish I had the fine mind of your sister.
16:16Miss Bennet has such an astute understanding of a wide range of literature.
16:21She does.
16:22She does.
16:24I do not know whether she gets it from me or her father.
16:28From you, mother, I am sure.
16:30Oh.
16:32There are very few people who have the insight of Miss Bennet.
16:35I could talk to you all day.
16:39I must admit, London has been a little grey without you.
16:46Are you joking?
16:47No, there are many interesting minds in London, all eager for thoughtful conversation.
16:53None as interesting as yours.
17:07Hello?
17:11Mother.
17:13I came to wish you goodnight.
17:19Here.
17:32Mr. Ryder would make an excellent match.
17:43I wonder what kind of endowment he has.
17:49I do not know, Mum.
17:51A sizable one, I'm sure.
17:55Good night, Mum.
18:02Good night, Mary.
18:05Good night, Mary.
18:26Good night.
18:35Good night.
18:38Good night.
18:54Sorry, don't, don't let me distract you.
18:59What are you reading, Mr. Ryder?
19:02A rather fascinating book, um, uh, Jesus.
19:08Right, it's upside down.
19:09Ah, so it is.
19:13What are you reading, Miss Bennet?
19:14Fordyce's Sermons to Young Women.
19:16Oh, insufferable rulemaking pedant.
19:19Would you like me to put it in the fire for you?
19:22It's not quite how I remember it, I'll admit.
19:39What are they talking about?
19:45Barry sounds serious.
19:47She is boring him, I know it.
19:49I think you should read Mrs. Macaulay.
19:51She will help you to better understand the world.
19:54I am no good at all at wasting my energy on anything that does not either move or please me.
20:01I think that is a shame, sir.
20:09You know, my father was a scholar.
20:12He devoted all his time to studying insects.
20:15Winged beetles, mostly.
20:17Of course, yes, the beetle in the jar.
20:21It's fascinating stuff, really.
20:25Well, I'm not so sure, but it occupied his every waking hour.
20:30He rarely emerged from his study.
20:34We hardly ever saw him.
20:38When I was 15 years old,
20:43he
20:46died quite suddenly.
20:49Oh.
20:51I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
20:53A few days after his death,
20:56I sat in his dark study and
21:01I thought about all the hours
21:03he'd spent in there.
21:05Away from his family.
21:07Away from life.
21:09And for what?
21:10For your father must have derived
21:12a great deal of pleasure from his work.
21:15Perhaps.
21:16But I think I learnt more about the point of human existence
21:20in that moment than my father learnt
21:22in a lifetime of study.
21:25From then on,
21:26I devoted myself
21:28to the pursuit of joy.
21:31Tell me, Miss Bennett.
21:35What makes you happy?
21:40Sorry, um,
21:41nobody's ever asked me
21:43such a question.
21:44Then you must consider it now.
21:47Well, um,
21:51reading.
21:52Reading.
21:53Learning.
21:54Teaching.
21:56And
21:58what of
22:00friendship?
22:04Of love?
22:07Uh, yes.
22:09No, of course, that.
22:12Life is short, Miss Bennett.
22:16Everything turns to dust
22:17in the end.
22:22We might as well experience
22:23some joy
22:24before that happens.
22:31Let's go riding.
22:36Yes.
22:37Let's.
22:44Ladies.
22:47What a waste.
22:50Well?
22:51Well, what?
22:51Are you going out walking again, Mary?
22:53No, Mr. Ryder and I are going riding.
22:54On a horse?
22:55Yes, that's generally the idea.
22:57But you hate horses.
22:58Mary,
22:58what are his intentions?
23:01To ride a horse,
23:02I think.
23:14Oh, no.
23:20Oh, dear.
23:21Oh, dear.
23:25Um.
23:26You're quite all right, Miss Bennett.
23:27I'm perfectly fine.
23:29Yes.
23:31No.
23:31Oh, dear.
23:33There we go.
23:34There we go.
23:36Now,
23:36I've been thinking
23:37about your argument.
23:39That, uh,
23:41that we should say
23:42more honestly
23:42what we think and feel.
23:44Oh, excellent.
23:45I knew you'd agree.
23:47Oh,
23:48I don't know that I do.
23:50I mean,
23:50surely even you must admit
23:52there may be occasions
23:53when,
23:54well,
23:54for all manner of reasons.
23:56Some things are best left unsaid.
23:57I cannot concur.
23:59I intend to live my life
24:00by bolder principles.
24:02In fact,
24:03that is why I came here,
24:05to put that belief
24:06into practice.
24:07Oh, really?
24:09Yes.
24:09I came here
24:10to commit
24:11the great impropriety
24:12of telling you honestly
24:13what I think of you.
24:15Oh.
24:17Mr. Ryder,
24:17I can assure you
24:18there's no need.
24:19I attempted to scribble
24:20a few lines,
24:20but then I thought of
24:22some verses
24:23of Mr. Wordsworth
24:24that captured
24:26your spirit perfectly.
24:29May I be allowed
24:30to recite them to you?
24:34Of course,
24:35Mr. Ryder.
24:35Please.
24:40She dwelt among...
24:42Excuse me.
24:44No.
24:47Please,
24:48take your time.
24:55She dwelt
24:56among the untrodden ways,
24:58beside the springs of Dove,
25:01a maid
25:02whom there were none to praise
25:04and very few to love.
25:07A violet
25:08by a mossy stone
25:10half hidden
25:11from the eye.
25:14Fair as a star
25:15when only one
25:17is shining in the sky.
25:25I think you see me
25:26as a lonely figure.
25:29I was brought up
25:30in Hertfordshire, sir,
25:31so the road to London
25:32was barely five miles away.
25:34It is possible
25:35to feel oneself alone
25:36even in such close
25:37proximity to town?
25:38Yes, but in my village
25:40it was quite untrue
25:41to say
25:42that there were none
25:42to praise
25:43and very few to love.
25:45There were scores
25:46of people
25:46very eager
25:48to praise my sisters.
25:49Perhaps living
25:50with your family
25:50in Meryton
25:52kept you
25:54half hidden
25:55from the eye.
25:57But now you've
25:58broken out
25:58on your own.
26:00You can be seen
26:01at last
26:01as you deserve.
26:03fair as a star
26:04when only one
26:06is shining
26:07in the sky.
26:13Oh!
26:18You are an actual
26:19Miss Bennett.
26:19Oh, I'm not.
26:21I know.
26:26Our conversation
26:27has made me
26:27very happy,
26:28very happy,
26:28Miss Bennett.
26:33Me too,
26:34Mr. Ryder.
26:50Walk on!
26:59Mary, there you are.
27:00What is the matter?
27:01What happened
27:02on the ride?
27:04We rode horses.
27:06Hmm.
27:07And mine was
27:08most unruly
27:09and it had a taste
27:10for brambles
27:10as if it had a mine
27:11it was only really
27:12and my saddle
27:12was not at all
27:13comfortable.
27:14Yeah, Mary.
27:14That's not a slight
27:15on the quality.
27:15Mary.
27:20It appears
27:21Mr. Ryder
27:22does have
27:22some sort
27:23of affection
27:23for you
27:23and
27:24I believe
27:25he is about
27:27to propose.
27:30Mother,
27:31I'm not
27:32completely sure
27:33that you are right
27:34and I
27:34really would hate
27:35to cause you
27:36any further
27:36disappointment.
27:36This is an opportunity
27:38that cannot be
27:39overlooked.
27:40He's a very
27:41eligible gentleman.
27:44You will say yes,
27:46won't you?
27:50There you are.
27:50What happened?
27:51What did he say?
27:52Did he ask you?
27:52He's not going to ask her.
27:54There's you.
27:56I...
28:01Miss Berry?
28:05Are you
28:07quite all right?
28:08Oh, it's
28:09nothing.
28:09Nothing at all.
28:12May I speak
28:12with you
28:13in private?
28:15I have something
28:15very important
28:16I want to discuss
28:17with you.
28:35Mother had told me
28:38to prepare myself
28:40but nothing
28:42could prepare me
28:43for what
28:45happened next.
