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.
09:08Philip of Culver Street?
09:10June Renegade of Hyde Park.
09:34I thought you might not come.
09:35It was very impertinent of you to ask me,
09:37but perhaps you think the rules of polite society
09:40don't apply to us.
09:41Perhaps I think they're petty.
09:42Parochial?
09:43Irrational.
09:48Seriously, can men and women not be friends?
09:52Do friends accept gifts?
09:58Cute.
10:03Recite me one.
10:08When old age shall this generation waste,
10:11thou shalt remain,
10:12in midst of other woe than ours,
10:15a friend to man,
10:16to whom thou sayest...
10:17Beauty is truth.
10:19Truth, beauty.
10:20That is all you know on earth.
10:22And all you need to know.
10:31Where shall we live?
10:34Versailles.
10:36The Tuileries.
10:38The Champs-Elysees.
10:42When I was tiny,
10:44we 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
10:55should never be kept in cages.
10:58So she let it fly away.
11:00No doubt to be eaten by a cat.
11:06Well, 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.
11:18My mum never taught me how to play the hostess.
11:22That's it.
11:23Our marriage is over.
11:25Oh, my God.
11:27You realise we'll have a housekeeper?
11:30Servant?
11:31And your mother will think me woefully lacking.
11:33I'm sure she already thinks I've led you astray.
11:37Led me astray?
11:41Have you?
11:44My father taught me university
11:46was a waste of time and money.
11:49Likewise, Europe.
11:51The grand tour.
11:53So at 16,
11:54I was on the floor of the stock exchange.
11:57Learning the ropes.
11:59Oh, don't mistake me.
12:00None of it was wasted.
12:02But...
12:03Now...
12:06Is my duty to the company...
12:12Or to myself.
12:25You haven't led me astray.
12:28You've set me free.
12:48Someone's all of a glow.
12:51Must be the ride.
12:53The wind was bracing.
12:55Suits you.
12:57You should go more often.
12:59Well, I think I will.
13:19So, the hunt is on.
13:21Yes.
13:22Will it be a chase?
13:24Or a trap?
13:25Yes.
13:26Frances will have it all planned.
13:28She learned from the master.
13:29Yes.
13:31Utterly brazen.
13:33Might as well stick her on a plate
13:34with an apple in her mouth.
13:36Olivia sends her regrets.
13:39She's visiting the Fitzgeralds.
13:41She and young Antony
13:42have formed an attachment.
13:44Oh, how delightful.
13:45That was quick.
13:47Poor Cyril finds it all so confusing.
13:50Shall we find you a little treat?
13:53Why don't you?
13:56Have you met Mrs. Parker Barrington?
13:59She's back in London.
14:00I'd be happy to introduce you.
14:02Oh, no.
14:03No need.
14:04I knew her in Geneva
14:06when she was first married.
14:07Sweet girl.
14:09Husband and absolute cynic.
14:12She and I
14:13hiked the Matterhorn together.
14:22And I understand
14:24you have
14:25an extensive
14:26collection of moths.
14:28Yes.
14:29I've been longing to know
14:30what distinguishes a moth
14:32from a butterfly.
14:34Oh, well,
14:35in fact,
14:36they do have things in common.
14:37Both belong to
14:38Lepidoptera species
14:40from the Greek
14:41Lepis meaning scale
14:42and Terran meaning wing.
14:44Oh, fascinating.
14:51Well,
14:52that could hardly
14:53have gone better.
14:55June was transformed.
14:58You did her very proud.
15:02Suspended evening.
15:04Do you really think
15:05she's had a change of heart?
15:06It would certainly
15:07make things easier.
15:42Soames, 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?
17:22Prepare yourselves.
17:28Is he serious?
17:29No, he's clever.
17:31If Joe gets the chair, do you see Soames taking orders?
17:33This way, he gets to be master of his own domain.
17:36Good 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,
17:53so good of you to come.
17:55Did I hear there may soon be exciting news
17:58about your daughter and young Horatio?
18:01I couldn't possibly comment.
18:05Lady Carter at her cell dropped a hint.
18:10She's asked me to donate to her charity
18:13for the reclamation of fallen women.
18:16And I wondered whether you might be persuaded to join us.
18:22Of course, one must support any scheme
18:26that 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 at a worse time.
18:45All these foresights buzzing around.
18:47She wasn't to know.
18:48I've never told who the children's father was.
18:51If you do it,
18:54it could ruin you.
19:19An invitation to Frampton Park.
19:22Oh, what's that?
19:25The Carteret family seat.
19:28Oh.
19:29Am I invited?
19:31Oh.
19:32I think we both know
19:33you're the main attraction, my love.
19:52Oh.
19:53Ah, oh, oh.
19:58Ah, oh, oh.
19:59Mon ami, mon ami.
20:00Oh!
20:01Oh, bon appétit.
20:02Bonjour.
20:03Et voici mon chef, Marie, mes amis pour le col de la Vallée, Yvette Colette Patrice Flictor.
20:10Bonjour, Marie.
20:11Bonjour, enchanté.
20:13Bonjour.
20:14Moui, bon appétit.
20:16Bonjour, enchanté.
20:18Allons-y.
20:19Allez, allez tout le monde.
20:20Allez, on s'assoit.
20:23Oh, my dear family!
20:27Oh, it's beautiful!
20:30So, Champagne?
20:31Are you ready, guys?
20:32We celebrate, right?
20:34But no!
20:36We must absolutely try.
20:37Our home speciality is the absinthe.
20:42Come on, turn it!
20:47Come on, all together!
20:53Go!
20:54Go!
20:56Go!
20:58Go!
21:07Go!
21:13Stop!
21:14It's a big event, but it's better.
21:16You're so close!
21:17I'm so close.
21:23How could I be so stupid?
21:26I thought if I appeared compliant,
21:30then Mama would be more sympathetic,
21:33would take my wishes into account, but now that's...
21:36Frampton Park.
21:37Yes.
21:40That can only mean one thing.
21:44He intends to propose.
21:57I suppose we'll never meet again.
22:00You wish you could be otherwise?
22:05Perhaps you should marry me.
22:09I think I'd prefer it.
22:15No, I...
22:17I really would prefer it.
22:19June, let's be serious.
22:22How on earth would we live?
22:23I'd have my settlement.
22:24There'll be no settlement.
22:25If your father refuses his consent, and 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.
22:36None of this matters if we love each other.
22:42I...
22:44I shouldn't have said that.
22:47He did.
22:59And...
23:00So...
23:10So...
23:12It...
23:28It's great.
23:31When will you have the pleasure to see you dance with us?
23:34We're not joining them at the Cours du Ballet.
23:36I have a letter of reference to Madame Leneure-Arlandre.
23:41Super!
23:41Let's see if I can join them at the start of the new season.
23:50One can have too much of a good thing.
24:11Do you intend to make a habit of advising clients against sure-fire investment?
24:19What's this?
24:20Salon Gold, as predicted.
24:23Colossal profits.
24:24But it seems Joe is unable to conquer his squeamishness.
24:28I doubt I will.
24:29You should ask Darty.
24:31Sure he's made of sterner stuff?
24:33Did I hear my name?
24:34Sir Jimmy Buckland's gold mine.
24:37Shares currently showing a 40% uplift.
24:40Ooh, I like the sound of that.
24:48The purpose of this firm is solely to make a profit for its clients.
24:54But if the heir apparent shows queasiness at its methods,
24:58is he really acting in our best interest?
25:10It appears Horatio Carteret is partial to June.
25:19Well, think of that.
25:21When we go to Frampton Park, I believe he will ask for her hand.
25:26And he's the heir.
25:28Which eventually means, of course, that June herself will be Lady Carteret.
25:32Just what those high and mighties need.
25:35Bit of spark and personality.
25:39Feather in your cap, my dear.
25:41And to you too, June, of course.
25:44Assuming her father consents?
25:47Why wouldn't he?
25:49Can you think of a reason?
25:52Unless June can.
25:57My love?
26:02Sorry.
26:03It's miles away.
26:04What was the question?
26:07Is there any reason I shouldn't consent to you marrying Horatio Carteret?
26:13Yes.
26:14I believe there is.
26:15On account of the fact that I'm already engaged.
26:21His name's Philip Bassini.
26:24He's an architect.
26:25One of the New School and very bright.
26:28He lives on Culver Street.
26:30It's also his office.
26:32He's still awaiting his first commission, but he's so talented.
26:36He's sure to be in great demand once the one.
26:38Darling, that's enough.
26:40No one finds this remotely amusing.
26:42I don't know.
26:43No.
26:45No.
26:45I met him at the opera.
26:47He's a modernist and utterly rejects outmoded traditions such as...
26:52Asking your father for his daughter's hand before he proposes?
26:55Well, actually, I proposed.
26:59Well, of course you did.
27:02Am I to understand there's actually some truth to this ridiculous...
27:08June.
27:10What are you doing?
27:12Following my heart.
27:16Oh, dear.
27:17But how did...
27:20Where could you tell her?
27:22It's out of the question.
27:23June.
27:24A word, please.
27:35Did you know anything about this?
27:37Why would I?
27:38We know she likes to confide in you.
27:42Perhaps she thought I'd disapprove.
27:44Which, obviously, you do.
27:52You don't understand.
27:54He's not like anyone I've ever known.
27:56He cares about things that matter, about right and wrong.
28:00He doesn't want to control me.
28:02He wants me to be just who I am.
28:04And that's unlike anyone you've ever known?
28:05Yes.
28:14So I should meet him.
28:45I don't know if you have any.
28:50I'm so sick.
28:54I'm so sick.
28:57I'm so sick of that.
29:02I really have no idea.
29:02I'm so sick of a lot of worry.
29:02I feel good about it.
29:02I don't know if I can't.
29:02I'm so sick of it.
29:13I'm so sick of you.
29:13I don't know if you're a woman.
30:00What is it?
30:04Why are you looking at me like that?
30:08May a man not look upon his most treasured possession.
30:13Am I really such a thing?
30:15And more.
30:41How could I have done this?
30:45I failed to communicate the foresight imperative.
30:50Seize the crown, lead, instead of playing second fiddle.
30:59What's been the point of my life if not to set my son on the chair?
31:03Is that what you put in your telegram?
31:06Obviously not.
31:07What?
31:09I told him if he didn't take the next train home from Paris, I'd come and drag him home
31:12by his ear load.
31:14Oh, well, that'll do it.
31:16Oh, well, that'll do it.
31:46Ladies, you've done me the honor of inviting me to join your campaign.
31:53And while I suspect that the scale of my donation may have influenced your choice,
31:59please, I hope I may have something more than guineas to offer.
32:16No doubt you think we'd be presumptuous, daring to aspire to the hand of an heiress.
32:22As you can see, my cuff's afraid, my coat is worn, and to demonstrate the gulf between
32:26us, you invite me to a place whose membership is four times my annual salary.
32:32Actually, I 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.
32:57My studies have left me in debt.
32:58So if you've come here to tell me that I must look elsewhere, I can't...
33:01I've come here to ask why you love my daughter.
33:10I've never met anyone like her.
33:13We see the world in the same way.
33:17She's spirited and brave.
33:20And yes, I love her.
33:22And if you don't believe me, then...
33:24Oh, what if I do believe you?
33:27You've supported this cause long before I arrived.
33:31The hostels you fund for the women you save.
33:34The clergy you pay to instruct them in the error of their ways.
33:39The homes you find amongst the childless gentry 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, moral superiority, or material assistance?
33:57Let me introduce to you a lady whose history you may find instructive.
34:10As some of you know me, you honour me with your custom.
34:15I'm 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, a midwife, sustenance.
34:37She asked me what skills I possessed and employed me as a dressmaker.
34:40Recommended me to her friends.
34:42Many of you have helped to make me what I am today.
34:46Not a burden on society, but a contributor.
34:52Heartwarming story.
34:54But there's a vast difference between you and 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.
35:26My children were born out of wedlock.
35:28Their father...
35:40...died...
35:41...before they were born.
35:47Now do you judge me?
35:50Do I appear less deserving to you now?
35:54Not to me.
35:57And not, I hope, to any here.
36:04Thank you so much.
36:45Forgive me, I must go.
36:54You don't strike me as a fortune hunter.
37:00How would you support her?
37:03I will.
37:05That is, at present.
37:07I can't.
37:09But I have prospects.
37:10I'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, till 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.
38:20It could be years before he makes his first commission.
38:23Exactly.
38:23And 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?
38:45Not in the slightest.
38:49I'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.
39:11Tell me.
39:13Tell me.
39:20Will you give me permission to get engaged?
39:25She...
39:31And now we assure the outside world that we couldn't be happier.
39:42No, no, no.
39:43You pause off the table, but you know the rules.
39:46What?
39:47Is 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 close 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.
40:28But 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?
40:35I take calculated risks.
40:39Like chance in your happiness with 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.
41:17Yes.
41:18Very commendable.
41:20Still, it's a struggle with two little ones to take care of.
41:24And when 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.
41:48Apparently.
41:50Poor darlings.
41:52Poor darlings.
42:02Poor darlings.
42:02Poor darlings.
42:05Poor darlings.
42:06Ho-ro ha-ro.
45:09I should have done it face to face.
45:11What was I thinking?
45:14I believe I must return.
45:18Cut short our honeymoon.
45:21And my audition, should I rearrange?
45:23By all means.
45:25But you must see I owe my father an explanation.
45:28I'm a person.
45:33Of course.
45:35Of course.
45:35Of course.
45:35I do see that.
45:38So let's return to London and settle things.
45:42Once and for all.
45:43I'll see you.
45:45I'm so sorry.
45:56I'm so sorry.
