00:41The call of duty, is it to ourselves or to others?
00:54Each generation debates the dilemma.
01:01Follow the money or follow your heart.
01:14The call of duty, is it to ourselves?
01:44June and I agree, you mustn't reproach yourself.
01:48The children, it's not as if you left them unprovided for.
01:54They'll inherit a considerable sum when they reach their maturity.
01:59They will.
02:02And I understand the struggle.
02:05The power of first love, and when there are consequences...
02:08I've cut ties with her, Frances.
02:12There's nothing more to be said.
02:15And for that, June and I are grateful.
02:19So, may we now turn our attention to the carterettes?
02:26Brace you.
02:29Figaro, he's slower than treacle.
02:45I feel quite neglected.
02:49Two weeks and not even a postcard.
02:53Surely he can't be that busy.
02:55Oh, I don't know.
02:57Well, firstly, I'm enjoying the peace.
03:00So much less drama.
03:04I doubt Joe would agree with you.
03:06Oh, Monty.
03:07Yes!
03:11Once the dust has settled, we need to implement the succession without delay.
03:15Why the urgency?
03:23I waited a long time.
03:25To become chairman.
03:28Nothing prepares you for the loneliness.
03:32The lack of a mentor.
03:34Everyone waiting for you to fail.
03:45So, I want you to take on the mantle now, while I'm still here to guide you.
03:50And since Soames is away, we can use his absence.
03:56To do what?
03:57To assure the doubters that you and not he are the man for the job.
04:09When will you tell them?
04:11I've already written to my father.
04:21I told him Forsyte and Co. should explore new markets.
04:24That I intend to set up an office here in Paris, where I can have complete autonomy.
04:30Won't he applaud that?
04:32No.
04:33He'll want me in London.
04:35Fulfilling his lifelong ambition.
04:36To thwart his brother.
04:38Oh, believe me, I do a better job than my cousin, but I've told him I need a new challenge.
04:43You have me.
04:45Am I not challenge enough?
04:48You are.
04:50Let me see.
04:51What are you?
04:54A wild thing.
04:57A wood nymph.
04:59A goddess.
05:02I saw the sunrise today.
05:05What?
05:07Where?
05:08When?
05:10In the gardens.
05:12You went out alone?
05:15I loved the early morning night.
05:18But, my darling, we're husband and wife now.
05:20We should want to do everything together.
05:24Everything?
05:25Is that not what marriage is about?
05:30Of course.
05:32The next time I'll wake you.
05:34Hmm.
05:39Ah, Forsyte.
05:41Is it true?
05:43Soames missing in action?
05:44Yes.
05:45Miss Honeymoon.
05:46Poor excuse, I grant you.
05:48Can I help?
05:49Hmm.
05:49Salon Gold.
05:50Sir Jimmy Buckland's venture.
05:52Soames told me it's a gold mine.
05:55Literally.
05:56Good.
05:57Count me in.
05:59To the tune of...
06:02Well, it's your choice, of course, Mr. Cully, but...
06:06I'd advise against.
06:08I...
06:09Sir Jim has a dubious safety record.
06:12Prone to accidents and human fatalities.
06:15I really...
06:15And?
06:16If there are a few careless laborers lost down a mine.
06:21Small price to pay for such fabulous returns.
06:23Couldn't agree more.
06:24James Forsyte.
06:25Allow me to expedite your purchase this way.
06:30With me?
07:54Mrs. Farrington.
07:56Anna, what a lovely surprise.
07:58Oh, my dear Louisa.
08:03You don't look a day older.
08:05That's kind of you to say.
08:08How's it been?
08:09A struggle, but so much worse if you hadn't stepped in.
08:12I take no credit.
08:14I gave you a helping hand.
08:16The rest you've done yourself.
08:19Oh.
08:21How...
08:23How...
08:24Inspiring.
08:25Inspiring.
08:26And to that end...
08:30I have a favor to beg.
08:32Of course.
08:33Anything.
08:34I hesitate to ask.
08:36It would involve a risk.
08:38And it concerns...
08:40My forthcoming fundraising event.
09:00June.
09:07June.
09:12Hmm.
09:33thank you i thought you might not come it was very impertinent of you to ask me
09:37but perhaps you think the rules of polite society don't apply to us perhaps i think
09:41the petty parochial irrational seriously can men and women not be friends do friends accept gifts
10:08when old age shall this generation waste thou shalt remain
10:12in midst of other woe than ours a friend to man to whom thou sayest beauty is truth truth beauty
10:20that is all you know on earth and all you need to know
10:31where shall we live
10:34the side the tuileries the chans elise
10:42when i was tiny we lived in three rooms above a baker's shop
10:49and my father bought me a canary
10:53but my mother said that wild things should never be kept in cages
10:58so she let it fly away
11:00no doubt to be eaten by a cat
11:07well three rooms won't do for us
11:10we shall need to entertain
11:13forge connections
11:14oh now you're about to discover my guilty secret

15:09thank you
15:43Soames, finally, I trust he's announcing his imminent return.
16:21Not coming home.
16:23On my heart, I shall faint.
16:24Can it be true?
16:25It must be her doing.
16:27Well, you can't deny she's a bewitching little creature.
16:30What can he be thinking?
16:32Setting up on his own in Paris of all places.
16:35Although, with Soames gone, might a fellow step up?
16:38What fellow?
16:40Someone with expertise on risk, investment.
16:44Gambling, you mean?
16:45And for the mantle of favoured child.
16:47Think about it, Freddie.
16:48With Soames away, you and I are the preeminent pair of our generation.
16:54Nobody is to hear of this.
16:56Understood.
16:57Of course.
16:58On my honour.
17:00My heart will break.
17:03How should we live without him?
17:21Prepare yourselves.
17:28Is he serious?
17:29No, he's clever.
17:31If Joe gets the chair, do you see Soames taking orders?
17:34This way, he gets to be master of his own domain.
17:37Good thinking.
17:37No, not good.
17:39Defeatist.
17:40Joe mustn't be allowed to get the chair.
17:42Soames must return and fight his corner.
17:45I need to send a telegram.
17:51Dear Mrs. Forsyte, so good of you to come.
17:55Did I hear there may soon be exciting news about your daughter and young Horatio?
18:01I couldn't possibly comment.
18:04I couldn't possibly comment.
18:05Lady Carter at her cell dropped a hint.
18:10She's asked me to donate to her charity for the reclamation of fallen women.
18:17And I wondered whether you might be persuaded to join us.
18:22Of course.
18:23One must support any scheme that takes these wretched creatures off the streets.
18:29Perhaps we can find ways to alleviate their wretchedness.
18:36They're both very hot.
18:38Try to get some sleep, my darlings.
18:40I don't like it.
18:41What Mrs. Barrington wants you to do?
18:43She couldn't have asked me our worst time.
18:45Were these Forsyte buzzing around?
18:47She wasn't to know.
18:48I've never told her who the children's father was.
18:51If you do it, it could ruin you.
19:19An invitation to Frampton Park.
19:23Oh, what's that?
19:25The Carteret family seat.
19:28Oh.
19:29Am I invited?
19:31Oh.
19:32I think we both know you're the main attraction, my love.
19:36Oh.
19:36Oh.
19:37Oh.
19:38Oh.
19:38Oh.
19:39Oh.
19:39Oh.

20:06Oh.
20:08Oh.
20:16Hello, everybody.
20:20Come on, let's sit.
20:24My dear friends.
20:26Oh, it's beautiful.
20:30So, champagne?
20:31You ready, guys?
20:32We celebrate, right?
20:34But no, you have to try.
20:37Our speciality of medicine is to be a special guest.
20:38They have the absinthe.
20:43Come on, let's go!
20:46Come on, let's go!
20:47Come on, let's go together!
20:49Come on, let's go together!
20:52Oh!
20:54Oh!
20:56Oh!
20:59Oh!
20:59Hey!
21:05Hey!
21:08Hey!
21:09Hey!
21:12How could I be so stupid?
21:13I thought if I appeared compliant,
21:15I'd be so stupid.
21:22How could I be so stupid?
21:26I thought if I appeared compliant,
21:30then...
21:31Mama would be more sympathetic,
21:33would take my wishes into account, but...
21:35but now that's...
21:36Phantom Park?
21:37Yes.
21:40That can only mean one thing.
21:44He intends to propose.
21:57I suppose we'll never meet again.
22:00I wish you could be otherwise.
22:05Perhaps you should marry me.
22:09I think I'd prefer it.
22:15No.
22:16I...
22:16I really would prefer it.
22:19June.
22:21Let's be serious.
22:22How on earth would we live?
22:23Well, I'd have my settlement.
22:24There'll be no settlement.
22:25If your father refuses his consent,
22:27and believe me, he will...
22:28Then we'll run away.
22:29And live on what?
22:30I have debts.
22:32No reputation.
22:33I'm yet to secure a meaningful commission.
22:35Sometimes I live on cocoa for a week.
22:36Well, none of this matters if we love each other.
22:42I...
22:44I shouldn't have said that.
22:47He did.
22:58And...
23:00so...
23:09so much.
23:26Ah!
23:27Oh, Alice.
23:29So great!
23:30Metro!
23:31When would you like me to dance with me?
23:34It's changing.
23:34We're heading for this culture.
23:36I dated to be the Vietnam War.
23:38de madame l'honneur a l'autre if i can join them at the start of the new season
23:43let's go get giselle
23:47but what one can have too much of a good thing
24:11so do you intend to make a habit of advising clients against surefire investment
24:19what's this salon gold as predicted colossal profits but it seems joe is unable to conquer his
24:27squeamishness i doubt i will you should ask darty sure he's made of sterner stuff did i hear my
24:34name sir jimmy buckland's gold mine shares currently showing a 40 uplift oh i like the sound of that
24:49the purpose of this firm is solely to make a profit for its clients but if the heir apparent
24:55shows queasiness at its methods is he really acting in our best interest
25:11it appears horatio carteret is partial to june
25:19well think of that when we go to frampton park i believe he will ask for her hand
25:26and he's the heir which eventually means of course that june herself will be lady carteret
25:32just what those hind mighties need a bit of spark and personality
25:39feather in your cap my dear and to you too june of course assuming her father consents why wouldn't he
25:49you can you think of a reason what less june can
25:57my love
26:02sorry it's miles away what was the question
26:07is there any reason i shouldn't consent to you marrying horatio carteret
26:13yes i believe there is on account of the fact that i'm already engaged
26:22his name's philip bassini he's an architect one of the new school and very bright he lives on culver
26:30street it's also his office he's still awaiting his first commission but he's so talented he's sure to
26:37be in great demand once darling that's enough no one finds this remotely amusing i don't know
26:45i met him at the opera he's a modernist and utterly rejects outmoded traditions such as asking your
26:52father for his daughter's hand before he proposes well actually i proposed well of course you did
27:03what am i to understand there's actually some truth to this ridiculous
27:09june what are you doing following my heart
27:16oh dear but how did where could you tell her it's out of the question june a word please
27:34did you know anything about this why would i we know she likes to confide in you oh perhaps you
27:42thought i disapprove which obviously you do
27:52you don't understand it's not like anyone i've ever known he cares about things that matter about right
27:59and wrong he doesn't want to control me he wants me to be just who i am and that's unlike
28:04anyone you ever
28:05known yes
28:14so i should meet him
28:35so
28:42so

31:37please
31:46ladies
31:47you've done me the honor of
31:50inviting me to join your campaign
31:53and while i suspect that the scale of my donation may have influenced your choice
32:00i hope i may have something more than guineas to offer
32:16no doubt you think we're presumptuous
32:19daring to aspire to the hand of an heiress
32:22as you can see
32:24my cuffs are frayed my coat is worn
32:25and to demonstrate the gulf between us
32:27you invite me to a place whose membership fees four times my annual salary
32:30actually
32:32i chose it because it's around the corner from your office
32:39tell me about yourself
32:47i'm a radical
32:50i've declined bow to convention
32:55my family's undistinguished
32:56my studies have left me in debt so if you've come here to tell me that i must look elsewhere
33:00i
33:01could
33:01i've come here to ask
33:10i've never met anyone like her
33:13we see the world in the same way
33:16she's spirited and brave and yes i love her and if you don't believe me then what if i do
33:25believe you
33:27you've supported this cause long before i arrived the hostels you fund for the women you save
33:34the clergy you pay to instruct them in the error of their ways the homes you find amongst the childless
33:41gentry for their wretched offspring
33:44no one can doubt the rigor of your purpose
33:48but what is the ultimate aim of your charity
33:51punishment
33:52moral superiority
33:54or material
33:55assistance
33:57let me introduce to you
33:59a lady
34:00whose history
34:01you may find
34:03instructive
34:10and some of you know me
34:11you
34:12honor me with your custom
34:15and kind enough to invite me into your homes
34:17ten years ago i was penniless homeless
34:22mrs parker barrington heard of my distress
34:26she could have judged me
34:28made a reckoning of my failings
34:30but instead she asked me how she could help
34:32she found me lodgings
34:34a midwife
34:35sustenance
34:36she asked me what skills i possessed and employed me as a dressmaker
34:39recommended me to her friends
34:42many of you
34:43have helped to make me what i am today
34:46not a burden on society
34:49but a contributor
34:52heartwarming story
34:53but there's a vast difference between you
34:56and the women that we try to help
34:59you are not what we call fallen
35:02and if i was would i deserve the workhouse
35:05my children removed
35:06myself consigned to penitence and shame
35:09widowhood and poverty are not sins
35:20i wasn't a widow
35:24my children were born out of wedlock
35:28their father
35:39died
35:41before they were born
35:47and how do you judge me
35:50do i appear less deserving to you now
35:54not to me
35:57and not i hope
35:59to any
36:00here
36:01thank you so much
36:05thank you
36:37thank you
36:39thank you
36:45Forgive me, I must go.
36:54You don't strike me as a fortune hunter.
37:00How would you support her?
37:03Oh, well, that is at present.
37:07I can't.
37:08But I have prospects. I'm currently seeking a major commission.
37:12But is money the be-all and end-all?
37:15It is for those who are used to it.
37:20I can't agree to this marriage.
37:25Until you've completed your first commission.
37:30Till then I consent to an engagement.
37:35I have no doubt we'll be seeing a lot of each other.
38:02I'm here, my dear ones.
38:03I'm here now.
38:10You agreed to an engagement.
38:13Why?
38:16He's impulsive, argumentative, and currently without means.
38:20Could be years before he makes his first commission.
38:23Exactly.
38:24And by then the romance would have lost his sheen.
38:27Or stood the test of time.
38:29And you're willing to take that chance?
38:34What is this?
38:37You living vicariously?
38:40Allowing June to do what you always regretted not doing?
38:46Not in the slightest.
38:50I'm wholly at peace with my decision.
39:01I knew it.
39:02You were never going to consent because you've no idea how it feels to truly follow your heart.
39:09So go on.
39:09Tell me.
39:20Will you give you permission to get engaged?
39:25She...
39:31And now we assure the outside world that we couldn't be happier.
39:45Is there a pact to lower the tone of this family?
39:51First Soames, now June.
39:54There's no one regard for pedigree.
39:57You'll note the lack of announcement.
40:00June's engagement?
40:01No surprise.
40:03I wouldn't advertise such a mismatch.
40:06No wonder the engagement party is closed family only.
40:10Poor Frances had such high hopes.
40:13She must be so disappointed.
40:21Did I ever tell you that when I was five I fell into the Seine?
40:25Where were your parents?
40:27Beside me.
40:27But I could swim so my mother was happy for me to take risks.
40:31She was a gambler?
40:32Mm-hmm.
40:33Like you?
40:34With other people's money?
40:36I take calculated risks.
40:38Mm-hmm.
40:39Like chance in your happiness for someone you barely know.
40:44Come with me.
40:46I have a surprise.
40:51Isaac mentioned June's engagement.
40:54Oh, we couldn't be more delighted.
40:56Of course, June could have had her pick, but we believe that young people should follow their hearts.
41:01Oh, I wholly agree.
41:03I want to thank you for joining us the other day.
41:07I hope you were persuaded of the cause.
41:11Dear Louisa, she's such a shining example of what can be achieved.
41:16Yes, yes, very commendable.
41:20Still, it's a struggle with two little ones to take care of.
41:24I mean, they both go down with a fever.
41:27Well, I'm so sorry.
41:28I have to dash.
41:29I'm expected at the Devonshires for luncheon.
41:43Are they very sick?
41:46Scarlet fever, apparently.
41:50Poor darlings.
42:02I don't know.
44:47And when we're settled in our new apartment, should we invite your family to come visit?
44:51Yes.
44:52Yes, of course.
44:55My love, there's something I haven't mentioned.
45:01A telegram from my father.
45:03Is he well?
45:05Beside himself.
45:06Huh.
45:07But I told him my plans in a letter when I should have done it face to face.
45:11What was I thinking?
45:14I believe I must return.
45:15I believe I must return.
45:18Cut short on honeymoon.
45:21And my audition, should I rearrange?
45:23By all means.
45:24But you must see I owe my father an explanation.
45:28I'm a person.
45:33Of course.
45:35Of course, I do see that.
45:38So let's return to London and settle things.
45:42Once and for all.
45:43Well, it's our best.
45:52Come on.
45:54Come on.
45:55Very fine.
46:12How do we know that this fellow isn't some money-grubbing opportunist?
46:19What is Frances thinking?
46:21She will know that when the heart is set on something, the more it's forbidden, the more it's craved.
46:30Surely you don't imagine June wants this boy just to prove she can have it?
46:37I once knew a couple of young men who pursued the same girl simply so the other wouldn't get her.
46:47Let me fetch you a drink.
47:04Something a mess?
47:06What?
47:08Nothing to concern you.
47:13No one would believe we used to be best of friends.
47:16It was a long time ago.
47:19Before the old man pitted us against each other.
47:21Ha!
47:23Yes.
47:24Shape up.
47:25Make sacrifices.
47:27Was it a sacrifice?
47:30For you?
47:33Alexandra.
47:39No more than it was for you.
47:42Do you sometimes wonder where she disappeared to?
47:46As do I.
47:49Yes.
47:50It all turned out for the best.
47:54Emily and you.
47:56Edith and I.
47:58Yes.
48:00Splendid women.
48:04Saved us from ourselves.
48:12I almost feel sorry for him.
48:14Don't.
48:16Did you see his hat?
48:18Left it on a chair and Emily must have stuck it for a cat.
48:25Uncle James.
48:27You look as if you'd like to commission a new house and here's Phil just brimming with
48:31clever ideas.
48:32I suspect your uncle's perfectly content with his own house.
48:35But should the opportunity ever arise, I'm sure you could come to my office and view
48:39my portfolio.
48:40There now.
48:41What a kind invitation.
48:44Well.
48:46Here we are.
48:48Frances and I ask you to join us in raising a glass to the newly engaged couple.
48:53June and Philip.
48:55June and Philip.
49:03How to thwart a rebel.
49:05Take away their cause.
49:09Yes.
49:18Yes.
49:20Yes.
49:22Yes.
49:23Yes.
49:25Yes.
50:30Are they?
50:35Please tell me they're not.
50:38They're not.
50:40Their fever's passed.
50:41They're sleeping.
50:45Thank God.
