Short filmTranscript
00:04The loss of my father was a leap into the unknown. Longbourn was my childhood home,
00:11and although I had my struggles here, it was all I had ever known. From now on,
00:18would I be relying on the hospitality of my sisters, destined to spend my days as my mother's
00:25companion? What other choice did I have? I do not expect any of you to understand my pain.
00:38The bond Mr. Bennett and I shared was a rare thing. I do not know that I shall ever eat
00:45again.
00:49Who is that? I do not know, Mama. What sort of person would
00:54impinge upon our hour of mourning so distastefully?
00:59Charlotte!
01:02I am afraid you find us in a state of some disarray.
01:06Let me tell you, understandably.
01:07We have been wanting to see you all since we heard the terrible news,
01:11but knew you would need time as a family to-
01:14Together your things.
01:15Yourselves.
01:16Together.
01:20I want to make it quite clear.
01:24No.
01:27Quite clear that there's no rush for you to leave Longbourn.
01:31Hm.
01:32Thank you, Mr. Collins.
01:34You are quite welcome to stay here with us for a full two weeks.
01:37Two weeks?
01:39Mrs. Bennett, there really is no hurry for you and Mary to leave.
01:42But I have arranged some help with the packing.
01:44So you are not obliged to undertake such a difficult task during your hour of need?
01:50Mm.
01:52Oh!
02:01Mama.
02:02You must come and stay with Mr. Beanley and Knight Netherfield.
02:06Well, we have a number of cooks and more servants than we know what to do with.
02:11Oh, Jane.
02:13I would be delighted.
02:15It would bring me great comfort to be in a citable property with a large number of staff at my
02:20disposal.
02:21Ha ha.
02:22Ha ha.
02:23Ha ha.
02:23And Mary, you of course must come too.
02:28But if you're worried about company, Caroline Bingley stays with us often.
02:33Well, yes, but I have not yet thought through my future prospects.
02:38Hmm.
02:39Speaking of your prospects, Mary, I have received a letter from my brother and his wife in London.
02:45Their governess has been called back to Norfolk and they have asked me to send you to stay
02:50with them until a suitable replacement is found.
02:53There is going to be a governess.
02:55Oh, Mary.
02:55Mary, I would very much like to help, but, um, you will need me, Mama.
03:01I have already accepted their offer.
03:04They're sending a carriage.
03:06But, Mama, do not worry about me, Mary.
03:09I shall have Jane by my side.
03:12Oh.
03:19Hmm.
03:20Hmm.
03:23Hmm.
03:26If my options in life really were marriage or misery, it looked very much as though I
03:32was destined for misery.
03:40Mrs. Bennet is indisposed.
03:45Oh.
03:46Of course.
03:48Thank you, Hill.
03:50Hmm.
03:57Um, what if the children don't like me?
04:01Why should they not like you?
04:03You're a perfectly likable soul.
04:07I have nothing ready to teach them.
04:10Mary, nobody knows more facts about anything than you.
04:16It's time for you to get out and see the world.
04:19Meet some other people that live in it.
04:22I think it'll do you good.
04:25Do not be frightened, Miss Mary.
04:27Oh, no, I'm not.
04:27I'm not.
04:28No, I'm just, um...
04:30What if it's regulable?
04:49And also, in love, since you were in love.
04:50I find it's my best.
04:50Have a great deal.
04:50Bye-bye.
04:50Bye-bye.
04:51Bye-bye.
04:54Bye-bye.
04:57Bye-bye.
05:59You must be hungry after your journey.
06:01Would you like some toasted cheese?
06:02But first we'll show you your room.
06:04Come in, come in.
06:07It's right at the top of the house, so you won't be disturbed by the children.
06:28How's your mother?
06:31Mother, she's had a most trying time of late.
06:33Well, you all have.
06:36Mother as well.
06:37Thank you for inquiring.
06:40And how are you, Mary?
06:42It must have been a terrible shock.
06:48It was.
06:50Well, thank you for stepping in at such short notice.
06:53We don't stand on ceremony here, especially with the children, so if you don't mind that, you'll do well with
06:59us.
07:00And the rest of your belongings will be brought up any moment.
07:03Do you have all you need?
07:04I do.
07:18Which mountain range is found here with your audience?
07:23Oh!
07:37Oh, that's good.
07:40Not so good.
07:41Mary, won't you join us for breakfast?
07:44Oh, no, no, sir, thank you, sir.
07:45I'm not at all hungry this morning.
07:47I shall see the children upstairs.
08:01Mary Ann, would you like to start?
08:04Miss Bennet, it's a pleasure to meet you.
08:07I am Mary Ann Gardner, and I'm 11 years old.
08:10It's my pleasure to meet you too, Miss Mary Ann.
08:15George!
08:18Yes, thank you, George.
08:20And this is...
08:25This is Rebecca.
08:27Thank you, Miss Rebecca.
08:30And if an organised body is not in the situation and circumstances best adapted to its sustenance and propagation,
08:41then, in conceiving an indefinite variety among the individuals of that species,
08:48we must be assured that, on the one hand,
08:52those which depart most from the best adapted constitution
08:55will be the most liable to perish.
09:01You've made him go to sleep.
09:08Let us move on to history, shall we?
09:11Now, in 1492,
09:14Christopher Columbus discovered America.
09:16Where is America?
09:18Ah, yes, America.
09:25Where has Rebecca gone?
09:27There were very clearly three of you in this room when I began looking at the globe,
09:31and now there are two of you.
09:32She vanished.
09:34She's a magician.
09:36Oh, magic is nothing but illusion and trickery.
09:38Oh.
09:39Now, where could she be?
09:42Tom, you're here!
09:43Tom, can we finish lessons now?
09:45Yes.
09:46Oh, forgive the intrusion.
09:47I came to tell you that dinner is served.
09:50You must be Miss Bennet.
09:53I...
09:53I must be.
09:55Oh, yes, I am.
09:56Oh, Tom, Hayward.
09:58Oh.
09:59Friend of the family.
10:05Aren't there normally three of you?
10:07There were three, certainly,
10:09but I was looking at America,
10:13and when I looked back, it was...
10:20Do you have mice, Miss Bennet?
10:23For if you do,
10:24might I suggest you do not keep them in the toy trunk?
10:28Well, I...
10:30I wasn't sure.
10:31I thought perhaps mice like toy trunks.
10:34No, you see, in there,
10:35they cannot get to their cheese.
10:37Actually, it's a fallacy that mice like cheese.
10:42Of course.
10:43They're much more partial to root vegetables and grains.
10:46Yes, indeed.
10:48I'm a rabbit.
10:52Mr. Hayward?
10:55Mr. Hayward,
10:56I am keeping a rabbit in the toy trunk
10:59because I...
11:04Because rabbits are not at all social creatures.
11:07Exactly.
11:07Yes, they are.
11:08Oh.
11:12Now, why exactly do you have a new governess?
11:16Is it that you keep eating them?
11:19Oh.
11:23Tom helped Edward with the legal matter some years ago,
11:26and we've been friends ever since.
11:28You're neither of our former loungers.
11:30Oh.
11:31Yes.
11:32Oh.
11:33What is a revolutionary Republican?
11:39Well, as discussed during the lesson,
11:43they're often associated with Jacobinism,
11:45but my point really was...
11:47It sounds like you had a very interesting first day, Miss Burnett.
11:50Well, uh...
11:51Have you read Catherine Corley, Miss Burnett?
11:54Yes, I have.
11:55Yes.
11:57Mary told us about smallpox.
11:59I shall never sleep again.
12:01Well, you asked me to be truthful.
12:03Was there deadly rash?
12:04She said it can leave one blind or dead.
12:08That is not quite how I put it.
12:10Blind or dead, she said.
12:11Well, that is true.
12:12There's a mortality rate of about...
12:14Thirty percent.
12:17Exactly.
12:19George cried three times.
12:22There was something in my eye.
12:24We held hands until Mary had finished talking.
12:28Well, you're never too young to learn about life.
12:31I think our game is in order, don't you?
12:33I think that's a very good idea.
12:35Yes.
12:36Yes.
12:36I'm first.
12:37But what should we play?
12:39Graces.
12:39Graces.
12:40Ah.
12:40Let's show Mary how to play graces.
12:43Yes.
12:44Marianne.
12:46Well called, Mary.
12:47Bravo.
12:48Bravo.
12:49Bravo.
12:49You're to back up.
12:50Woo.
12:51Oh.
12:53That counts.
12:54It doesn't need it.
12:56It doesn't need it.
12:57Oh.
12:58You'll need to get someone to look at that.
13:01Send it to Blythe.
13:02She'll fix it for you.
13:04Ready?
13:05Woo.
13:05Marianne.
13:06Yes.
13:07Oh, well done.
13:08Flare play.
13:09You look like a wizard.
13:11Yes.
13:17Are you sure you won't join in, Mary?
13:20Oh, no.
13:21I'm not, I'm not good at games.
13:22Oh, that doesn't matter at all.
13:25Yes.
13:27Well, you couldn't possibly be as ungainly as I am.
13:30Really, I'd only spoil it.
13:38George.
13:39Ready?
13:49Yes, Tom.
13:49It's Mr. Gardner.
13:51Oh.
13:52Oh.
14:09Yes?
14:11Mary?
14:14Oh, do not look so grave, my dear. You're not in trouble.
14:18With the weather getting warmer, we're about to become more sociable.
14:21Oh, oh, please, do not feel any obligation to involve me.
14:24I shall be quite content to stay upstairs with the children.
14:26Mary, we want you to join us.
14:30But I do not sparkle at dinners.
14:34In our house, no one is obliged to sparkle.
14:39Then, of course.
14:41But we need to get you properly dressed.
14:44Oh, I thought perhaps tomorrow we could go to the haberdashers and you could pick out some fabrics.
14:48I do not really care for dresses.
14:51That's a shame, but very well.
14:55Perhaps think about it, Mary.
14:57There is a dress allowance as part of your governess' wages.
15:01I have thought about it.
15:03And I would very much like to accept your kind offer.
15:06That's excellent news.
15:09Oh, good night, Mary.
15:11And thank you for today.
15:20This must be such a change for Meriton.
15:23It most certainly is.
15:35What do you think of the deep greens?
15:38We have a soiree coming up.
15:39Now, I think deep green would be perfect.
15:43Mother has always said it's terribly difficult to get any colour to work with my complexion.
15:47Really?
15:48Well, perhaps your complexion's changed, because I can see many colours here which would work well on you.
15:53But the most important thing being is that you choose fabrics that you truly like.
15:59But Mother says that Mother isn't here.
16:05Mrs. Gardiner.
16:07Oh.
16:07Miss Bennet.
16:08Tom!
16:10It's the Hayward.
16:10Have you brought your jacket to be mounted?
16:13I have just this minute dropped it off.
16:14Well, now that you're here, you can make yourself useful.
16:17Miss Bennet needs to choose some dress fabric.
16:21I find myself quite overwhelmed by the choice.
16:23Well, I shall be honest and say that my experience of picking dress fabric is limited.
16:28To say the least.
16:29What?
16:30I shall try.
16:32Have you seen the names of these colours?
16:35We've got Dust of Ruins, Corbeau, or Flamme de Bonche.
16:41Anyone?
16:42I think I shall take the Drake's Neck with a splash of Nunkey.
16:47Anyone for Gamboge?
16:49Well, I mean, that's just yellow.
16:51Yes.
16:52Yes.
16:55I think my advice would be to choose the colours that make one feel most like oneself.
17:00And I am sorry not to be of more use.
17:02I should return to my desk and a particularly unexciting land negotiation.
17:09Good day.
17:10Good day.
17:15Oh, poor Tom.
17:17You work so hard.
17:18Really?
17:19Underneath that light-hearted manor.
17:21Carries the weight of the world on his shoulders.
17:26Now, have you decided?
17:29I have chosen.
17:31Very well, Mary.
17:35The first is this crimson.
17:38And then I thought perhaps a spring green trim.
17:42Lovely.
17:43Yes.
17:43But you will need two dresses.
17:45So perhaps...
17:47China blue?
17:49Hmm.
17:52Do you think a dress in the spring green alone would be garish?
17:57What do you think, Mary?
18:00Some people may think it is wild.
18:03But...
18:04I like it.
18:06Then I think you should please yourself and not worry what others may think.
18:11You've done a very good job.
18:13Now.
18:39Oh, my gosh.
18:43Oh, my gosh.
18:46The gardeners are out.
18:47They're buying shoes for the children.
18:49Oh.
18:51Would you like to play graces?
18:55Well, yes.
19:03Ready?
19:04Yes.
19:07Oh.
19:12I did it.
19:13You did?
19:14Natural?
19:15Beginner's luck.
19:16All right.
19:19Ready?
19:20Mm.
19:21Oh, what?
19:23Oh.
19:25Oh.
20:26I prefer facts to whimsy.
20:31Whimsy?
20:32I've tried, uh, well, Cowper, uh, Byron, even some Dryden, but, um, well, it seems to me
20:40that it's all just words.
20:44What were you expecting?
20:46Are you a scholar, sir?
20:49No.
20:50I'm a barrister, junior.
20:52And though the law is my business, poetry is my passion.
20:56What do you like to read?
20:59Uh, works of non-fiction.
21:01Um, histories and, uh, and geology.
21:05And what do you like to read for pleasure?
21:08That is reading for pleasure.
21:11There is nothing you like about poetry.
21:16Well, some poems are mercifully short.
21:22Well, now that you have thrown down the gauntlet, I will not rest until you have appreciated
21:28the merits of poetry.
21:32I believe that this is the book that will open the heart of Miss Mary Bennet.
21:41Oh?
21:44The gardener's home.
21:45Oh, is it?
21:46Oh, yes.
21:47Yes.
21:47Of course.
21:48Uh, well, yes.
21:50Um.
21:52Oh, Tom!
22:16And we'll need more scallops.
22:18Mrs. Shonley will claim she could possibly before helping herself to seven.
22:23It must be very strange without your family here.
22:27There was always at least one argument about stolen perfume.
22:35Mary, you look lovely.
22:39I'm not sure.
22:43I think we should let your hair fall naturally.
22:45No point trying to force it into curls if it doesn't want to go.
22:52I don't know.
23:07It doesn'tinis yo n S S S S ing.
23:14Mrs. We?
23:17Yes, thanks for listening.
23:19There was nothing new he gives you.
23:31Um, I mean, that's basically it, but they're awfully fun, they're fun.
23:40Good evening, I do not believe we have met.
23:43I'm Miss Baxter, delighted to meet you, Miss Baxter, I am Miss Bennet, I have not long
23:50move to London from Hertfordshire, Mr Fanshawe, a friend of my mother's died eating those nuts,
24:03one got stuck in his throat and that was it, he was quite dead in minutes, I hope I didn't
24:13cause any offence, that was marvellous, oh I shall keep that story in mind for when I
24:17wanted to be rid of someone, but forgive me, it wasn't deliberate.
24:22I hate the first 20 minutes of these evenings, I never know who to talk to and I often find
24:28myself saying the wrong things.
24:34Your dress is striking, it looks very well on you.
24:37You really think so?
24:38I feel a little bold in it.
24:40Well, you're in London, Miss Bennet, if you're going to be bold, here is the place to do it.
24:46Perhaps London will be the start of something new for you.
24:49Perhaps it will.
24:50Well, and if you want to be shown around town, I could call on you.
25:03London, it turned out, was a place of learning, as much as teaching, a place of trying new
25:10things, and though I had never liked change, I seemed to be enjoying myself.
25:19Much about me felt different, after just one week.
25:24Being here had lifted my spirits, I felt something long forgotten, hope.
25:32Are you looking for someone?
25:36You must tell me all about it in a moment.
25:40Nick, there's a gentleman I'd like you to meet.
25:43We have something of an understanding.
25:45Please may I introduce Mr. Tom Hayward.
25:53We've already met.
25:55Miss Bennet?
25:55Oh, of course, you must have.
25:58Oh, I see you went for the Pomona train.
26:01Uh, it's, um, spring green is quite different to Pomona.
26:05Well, it suits you very well.
26:08Tom!
26:09Excuse us, ladies.
26:11You must come and meet my colleague, Mr. May.
26:16Mr. Hayward and I met three years ago this spring.
26:20We are hoping to be married next year.
26:23Not everything went exactly as I would have liked.
26:26Come on.
26:27Oh.
26:28Please excuse us, of course.
26:29Come, Mary.
26:30It'll be fun.
26:31Of course a man such as Mr. Hayward would have secured a match.
26:36But I had made friends, and that was enough.
26:46I did not know what tomorrow would bring.
26:49But for now, at least I had someone to dance with.
