Short filmTranscript
00:45And so it begins, the crumbling of the polished facade, the unraveling of the carefully
00:55curated life we've built for ourselves.
01:01Free of scandal and inconvenient truths, of hidden desires and secret longings.
01:10But should they emerge?
01:12Do we let them lie?
01:15Or do we pursue them?
01:17And are we prepared for the consequences?
01:25Who was that lady that just called?
01:30Did she upset you?
01:33No, no, not at all.
01:34I just, um, come here and take your lingters.
01:37Yes.
01:41But it's horrible.
01:42And so is whooping cough.
01:48Now go and do your reading.
01:50Go.
02:14So, I was thinking, Mama, I need a new riding coat, so should we visit Miss Louisa today?
02:19Oh, uh, I think not.
02:23She mentioned last night she's booked up for several months in advance.
02:27Well, she'll fit me in.
02:30And I want to take some bonbons for the children.
02:33No.
02:36No.
02:39No.
02:39Their mother may not want them to have sweet things.
02:46It's so sad for Mama.
02:48Her father died before they were born.
02:50She had to bring them up all alone.
02:52So brave.
02:53Yes.
02:54Very commendable.
02:56All the more reason not to overburden her.
02:58Are you joining us for the opera tonight?
03:00What is it?
03:02Traviata.
03:03Traviata.
03:04All that weeping and wailing annoys me.
03:07June, you should wear the pink silk.
03:10I've invited the cartarets to our box.
03:14Why?
03:15So we can all become better acquainted.
03:29June must be thrilled.
03:31So many young men clamoring to dance.
03:33What a picture she looked.
03:35And that gown was a triumph.
03:37Almost a disaster.
03:38But the girl worked wonders.
03:40Girl?
03:40You were ogling her, remember?
03:42That little chick a bit.
03:43You might have introduced me.
03:45I took care not to.
03:46She seemed awfully thick with Jo.
03:49The dressmaker?
03:50Who's this?
03:50Pretty young thing.
03:51Quite charming.
03:52Remind me, why she was thick with Jo?
03:55Well, perhaps he was thanking her for saving the day.
03:57Can you get an appointment with her?
03:59That's what I'm hoping for.
04:01After June's war, everyone will be after her.
04:05Shall we?
04:06Hmm.
04:17What are you doing?
04:19Seeking employment.
04:22As a typist.
04:24Oh, how demeaning.
04:27I need something to tide me over until I can find a way to pay for Paris.
04:32Oh, you're still persisting with that madness.
04:36Why wouldn't I?
04:37What are you doing?
04:49For sure.
04:50I'm a lawyer.
04:51Right.
04:55Good to meet you.
04:56Great tradition.
04:57Thank you very much.
04:58You're very welcome.
04:59You're very welcome.
05:00You're very welcome.
05:00Very welcome.
05:01Thank you, sir.
05:01Well, it's good to see you.
05:03Thank you, Douglas.
05:05The point is, there is no prior incident of a chairman resigning, and therefore no precedent
05:11for the eldest son's accession before his father's death.
05:14So in the case of Joe...
05:15Increasingly at odds with the aims of the firm.
05:17If it were brought before the board, how much further he might deviate?
05:21How that could endanger the future of the company?
05:23The sheer insanity of the prizing tradition over merit.
05:26It's archaic, it's wasteful, and if it goes ahead, a missed opportunity.
05:31It is not a foregone conclusion.
05:32I will insist it be brought before the board, and in the meantime, we build the case against
05:37Joe.
06:13I saw her at the pool last night.
06:17The girl from Venice?
06:20Louisa.
06:21Joe.
06:22How did she come to be there?
06:24She makes gowns.
06:26June's gown.
06:28She's a widow.
06:29She lives in Soho.
06:30Do you have any idea?
06:31No, not an inkling.
06:33Will you see her again?
06:36I don't know.
06:44Were you told to marry?
06:48I chose freely.
06:52Because of your father was my first love.
06:55And when he died, I was sure I would never get over him.
06:59But he did.
07:01Nothing compares to first love.
07:04We persuade ourselves the fever is real.
07:08And then, if we're lucky, we meet our true soulmate and discover something more profound.
07:18So, Papa's your soulmate?
07:21Like magnets, perhaps?
07:23The attraction of opposites?
07:36Gentlemen, today I can announce that Forsyte & Co. has been offered a unique opportunity.
07:42My old friend, Sir Jimmy Buckland, has finally succeeded in his scheme to deploy a tribe from Upper India to
07:47the gold mines of Ceylon.
07:49Carried in the teeth of great difficulties, it should double the output of his mines.
07:53And quarter the lives of his workers?
07:55Well, whether one expires of miserable old age on one's own barren soil or prematurely at damp at the bottom
08:01of a foreign mine, I hardly...
08:02Surely of small consequence, as long as it benefits the shareholders.
08:06Well, I imagine it's of some consequence to the widows.
08:10May I continue?
08:15Sir Jim, as a personal favour to me, has given us advance notice so that we may use the information
08:22to our advantage.
08:23By offering our clients, and indeed ourselves, the chance to invest.
08:28It is, quite literally, a golden opportunity.
08:35It's a risk.
08:37Which we have an impeccable record for calculating.
08:41Still feels like gambling to me.
08:48Are we agreed?
08:50Yes, agreed.
08:52Adjourned.
08:57I'll be back later.
08:58I have an appointment.
08:59Anyone we know?
09:01No.
09:03No.
09:06No.
09:26Is it to your taste?
09:29I could admire the tonal qualities, but no, it doesn't move me.
09:33May I ask what does?
09:36A more vibrant style.
09:39Something which captures the fleetingness of a moment rather than preserves it in aspic.
09:44You're a romantic.
09:46My stepmother says I'm utterly unfit for decent society.
09:50Your crime?
09:51I dance.
09:54The polka?
09:55The waltz?
09:56The ballet.
09:58Ah.
09:59My mother was a dancer, and I seem to have inherited her...
10:04Talent.
10:05Passion.
10:06There, I said it.
10:07Now's your chance to escape.
10:09And yet, as you see, I'm still here.
10:34So, no escape.
10:37From what?
10:38The opera.
10:39The carterets.
10:40The scheme to throw me to the wolves.
10:44Horatio?
10:46Oh, isn't he more of a poodle?
10:52Well, look who I have.
10:54I know she's not mine, but I take her with me when I'm feeling vexed or miserable.
11:00And she always cheers me up.
11:03Is that why you got her?
11:06She was a gift.
11:08From a friend.
11:10Someone I met in Italy.
11:13An attachment?
11:16Short-lived.
11:17Let me guess.
11:18She wasn't suitable.
11:20You were forbidden to pursue her.
11:22We just went our separate ways.
11:25And then you met Mama?
11:28Yes.
11:31I'm not sure I want to fall in love.
11:33Sounds like torture.
11:37Well, he can also be magnificent.
11:45Jo never seems to learn.
11:47He's today in the boardroom, wittering on about widows and gambling.
11:52Oh, poor Cyril.
11:53How he frets when he knows I'm going out.
11:55Shall I stay behind and pet him for you?
11:57Oh, dear, no.
11:58That would defeat the whole purpose of the evening.
12:00The purpose being to dangle June and I before the carterets and hope they bite.
12:04What he fails to grasp is the need for us to be led by sound commercial nurse.
12:08Darling, we simply want you to find someone who deserves you.
12:12We were to maintain our position as London's premier brokers.
12:15The board should be worried.
12:16And you look so handsome.
12:18The board will be worried.
12:19She won't be able to resist you.
12:21We'll make sure of that.
12:46So glad you could join us, Lady Carteret.
12:49Oh, my dear, to be seen in the company of the illustrious foresights.
12:54Who wouldn't leap at the chance?
12:59Lovely to see so many young people.
13:02But sad to think they're seldom masters of their own fate.
13:06I like to think we take their views into account.
13:09Tradition is what counts.
13:11Stability.
13:12No impulsive changing of the guard.
13:17But sometimes, is it not a fresh perspective that is exactly what is needed?
13:21Provided the proposed candidate is up to the task.
13:24I understand you're an avid reader.
13:28But I...
13:31Have you read Frankenstein?
13:34Er, no, I...
13:35You'll find you have some sympathy for the creature.
13:38No will of its own.
13:40Forced to do another's bidding.
13:42Until, of course, it rebels.
13:51Ah, you seem to have left my wife at home.
13:55Perhaps I could prevail on your father.
13:58Or you could just not drink.
14:03Oh, my cousins.
14:05Mama, I might just, um...
14:07Of course.
14:25I do beg your pardon.
14:27Are you hurt?
14:30Do I look like a damsel in distress?
14:33On the contrary.
14:35Are you here with friends?
14:37Family.
14:38My mother thinks this is the place to meet the right people.
14:41Would I fall into that category?
14:44I seriously doubt it.
14:47Do I sense a renegade?
14:51June Foresight.
14:54Philip Basile.
14:57Bucking here.
15:51I adore Traviata.
15:52Makes one positively melt, don't you find?
16:26I adore Traviata,
16:33URTA, URTA, URTA, FIORTA
17:05Did you miss me, Pudding?
17:07Oh, don't suck. I promise I'll make it up to you.
17:12Always affecting, Traviata. Lost love and all that.
17:20Perhaps we should be celebrating love found.
17:24Perhaps we should.
17:41Can you believe June tonight?
17:45Determined not to cooperate.
17:49The Carterets, our plans.
17:54Will you speak to her?
17:57Saying what?
17:59That there's a time and a place for everything.
18:03And the time for June is now.
18:08She's 18.
18:12She has to put away childish things.
18:17She worships you.
18:21If you tell her, we would only ever choose someone worthy of her.
18:28But perhaps you think your father made the wrong choice for you.
18:44I made the choice.
18:45I'm so alive.
19:03You think we might do, too.
19:06In the future you're talking.
19:08I just do.
19:08I don't know.
19:10I don't know.
19:16You must go.
19:21I can't bear to leave you.
19:25Your family needs you.
19:28Your father has summoned you home.
19:31Will I return?
19:33Where will you be?
19:36Florence, Rome?
19:39Were you right to me?
19:41Tell me where you'll be.
19:42Joe, stop.
19:46Let's not pretend.
19:50What?
19:52These last few months...
19:54Have been the most precious of my life.
19:55And mine too, but...
19:59We always knew they would come to an end.
20:03Why must they?
20:05Because I am a lady's maid and you're a gentleman.
20:08I want a new gentleman to marry the lady's maid.
20:14You're dreaming.
20:18Believe me, I'm not.
20:23If you still feel this way in a year's time...
20:27I feel the same way in 50 years' time.
20:34Then I have your address.
20:37All right.
20:42Wherever you are...
20:46I'll come to you.
20:54I'll come to you.
20:57Love you.
21:01Bye.
21:02Bye.
21:08Bye.
21:24Louisa, Louisa, please.
21:40Please, keep your voice down.
21:44My assistant is asleep.
21:48Why have you come?
21:53Honestly, I don't know.
21:58To prove you aren't a figment of my imagination.
22:04I want to see the only person who ever completely understood me.
22:10Dude, we are very different now.
22:13Yet here we are.
22:26Do you still paint?
22:32Really?
22:34It's one of the many things I gave up to serve the god of commerce.
22:40Sad to hear it.
22:43Well, tell me about your husband.
22:46Late husband.
22:48Is there any point in...
22:49Well, were you happy?
22:54Did you love him?
23:00Uh, that's...
23:01It's my assistant.
23:03Um, she sleep walks.
23:05You must go.
23:07Please don't come here again.
23:35Please don't come here again.
23:46And he'll see you next time.
23:49You're happy.
23:53I'll see you next time.
23:56I'll see you next time.
23:56I'll see you next time.
23:57I'll see you next time.
24:02I'll see you next time.
24:05Hey, what?
26:07Perhaps you underestimate yourself.
28:08Mrs. Forsyte.
28:12I hope I'm not disturbing you.
28:16Won't you take a seat?
28:23I've always been curious about you.
28:27The girl who first captured his heart.
28:31Not that he ever spoke of you.
28:33One just instinctively knows that one wasn't the first.
28:42What made you come to my house?
28:45You begged me to.
28:47And you were curious.
28:50And hoped to see him.
28:51I've never attempted to see him. I've never tried to contact him. I've never asked him for anything.
28:58Does he know about the children?
29:01No.
29:02You understand he never can.
29:05It would ruin him.
29:07In his business, reputation is everything.
29:10And in mine.
29:12I came here with nothing. Single-handedly raised...
29:15These two children.
29:17Whilst building a business, do you seriously imagine that I wish to endanger my own good name?
29:21And should he try to see you?
29:25I will tell him to go away.
29:33If you do...
29:37What?
29:39What?
29:46I am 14 hour間.
29:47I am 14th Strike, tell his wife and tell his wife.
29:49Yes.
29:50bạn.
29:56It comes to your husband.
30:27I thought your scrawling days were long gone.
30:30Something you wanted, Sam?
30:31Perhaps you should give it all up.
30:34Quit the grind and daub away to your heart's content.
30:38Perhaps I should.
30:41Why don't you?
30:44Ask my father or yours.
30:46Of course.
30:49You're here to save us.
30:52How noble.
30:58Good day to you, Sam's.
31:11What did I say?
31:13First time we boxed at Oxford.
31:15I never make it as a fighter because I like to put men.
31:21I wonder why we became friends.
31:22Because we both needed a punch back.
31:24And I was missing sides.
31:29So, brother.
31:31A number of us have been speaking and, uh...
31:34Well, we're keen to hear Joe's vision for the company.
31:38Vision?
31:38Hmm.
31:39The head of the vote.
31:41What vote?
31:43There'll be no vote.
31:44The decision is mine.
31:45Yeah, but it must be ratified.
31:46It's tradition.
31:48Eldest son to eldest son.
31:50Well, with respect.
31:52Well, you broke with tradition when you pushed Joe into the chair before your demise.
31:57Even so...
31:57I mean, surely.
31:59You want all the board to be fully behind the new appointment?
32:03Don't think I don't know what you're about.
32:06You have your eye on the prize for Soames.
32:10I think we both know he's the better man for the job.
32:22Isaac, just curious.
32:26Did you pick up any sense from the other partners what they think of Joe's promotion?
32:31I know what I think.
32:34Tell me.
32:36He's passionate.
32:37Struggles to compromise.
32:40But that's why this company needs him.
32:44In ten years, he's never let you down.
32:49I don't believe he ever will.
32:53Thank you, Isaac.
33:06Your father just told me.
33:10Beggars belief, the idea of a vote.
33:13Expected.
33:14Well, you know James is setting you up to fail.
33:17Quite.
33:20Disappoint him.
33:22You have the vision, the ability.
33:26You deserve it.
33:29We deserve it.
33:31So let's be very considered about our next move.
33:36I'll throw it away in a moment of madness.
33:55Serial.
33:57Bo.
33:58Bo.
34:00Bo.
34:01Serial.
34:02Bo.
34:03Bo.
34:07There you go, clever dog.
34:13Someone's looking pleased with themselves.
34:15Happy Miss Carteret.
34:17Happy Soames, if it's any sense.
34:19Which I'm certain he does.
34:21Well, I mustn't be late.
34:23I told June I'd take her with me, but Francis has forbidden her to go.
34:27Go where?
34:28The dressmaker, Mrs Louisa.
34:30Who also does wedding gowns.
34:32Why did Francis forbid her?
34:34No idea, but she was absolutely insistent.
34:36June is not to go.
34:38Well, I'm heading into town myself.
34:39Can I drop you?
34:40Silk Street in Soho.
34:42There's a jeweler's nearby.
34:44Won't you join us?
34:46No, I will make my own arrangements.
34:57My dear, are you quite well?
35:00Yes.
35:03That is, a matter has come to my attention.
35:08I'm not quite sure how to manage it.
35:15That will be, um, Mrs. Darty?
35:24Uh, is Mrs. Burnham home?
35:30Children, put those down.
35:32Come here.
35:38Hello.
35:41Are you...
35:42My children, yes.
35:52And their father?
35:53He died.
35:55A long time ago.
35:57Before we were born.
36:01How old are you?
36:02Ten.
36:03Hannah, take the children.
36:04But Mama, please do us.
36:06I say I need to speak.
36:07With this, gentlemen, I'll come to you soon.
36:23Who is their father?
36:26Is he dead?
36:30Is he?
36:38That's good, us.
36:44Dear God, Luisa, you couldn't think to tell me.
36:47What should I have said?
36:50No claim on you.
36:51We barely knew each other.
36:54I saw myself for what I was.
36:56A diversion.
37:00I loved you.
37:01You desired me as I desired you.
37:04And what we had was brief and careless.
37:08And could never have come to anything.
37:14You should have looked for me.
37:16After Venice.
37:16You knew my family.
37:17You knew my name.
37:18I did look for you.
37:20When I knew I was with child, I had every intention of seeking you out.
37:23So why didn't you?
37:26I read about your marriage in the newspaper.
37:31What else could I do but make my own arrangements?
37:35Earned enough to set aside for my confinement.
37:38I took in mending, embroidery, anything I could to provide for my child.
37:44Children, as it turned out.
37:46But if you told me...
37:48Then what?
37:49You had a wife, a stepchild, a family name.
37:55Is that supposed to be your guilty secret?
37:58Better to find my own means to provide for my children.
38:02Our children.
38:07Our children.
38:11They can never know.
38:15Please don't make this difficult.
38:19Our lives need not be thrown into disarray simply because we happen to meet again.
38:32As you wish.
38:36But first I'd like to see the children again.
38:40Don't do this.
38:43Please let me see them, Louisa.
38:47Please.
39:02Children, come here.
39:07And it is certain the children are his?
39:12Beyond doubt.
39:16And he doesn't know.
39:18Does anyone?
39:20Nor must they.
39:21James and Soames especially.
39:23Indeed.
39:25How trustworthy is this girl?
39:27Could she threaten to expose him?
39:28I don't believe she will.
39:30She's posing as a widow.
39:32Good.
39:32And a respectable dressmaker.
39:35So we are confident the matter will go no further?
39:39We are.
39:48Come.
39:50This is a friend of mine.
40:01Hello.
40:04I'm Joe.
40:06How funny.
40:07So am I.
40:10But everyone calls me Joss.
40:14May I call you Joss?
40:21I'm Holly.
40:23I know he looks older.
40:24But we're twins.
40:29It's a pleasure to meet you, Holly.
40:33Are you crying?
40:37Yes, I am crying.
40:41Are you sad?
40:44No.
40:46I'm happy.
40:50Happier than you can imagine.
40:56Sorry.
40:59I don't wish to scare you.
41:01That's the last thing I want.
41:02Please, you must leave.
41:04I have clients to you.
41:07The back door, this way.
41:16Please don't come here again.
41:37I'll see you at dinner, pa.
41:48I'll see you at dinner, pa.
41:51I'll see you at dinner, pa.
41:54I'll see you at dinner, pa.
41:56I'll see you at dinner, pa.
41:58I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:01I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:04I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:05I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:06I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:06I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:07I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:08I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:10I'll see you at dinner, pa.
42:28I was told you were looking for me.
42:34I came just now from Soho.
42:37Yes?
42:39From the dressmaker, Louisa.
42:42She and I knew each other years ago.
42:45I'm aware.
42:47I've seen her myself.
42:50Then you know about...
42:52The children.
42:53Yes.
42:59Nothing about their existence is simple.
43:07And clearly there are consequences.
43:09Yes.
43:12The possibility of discovery.
43:16How it can be used against you.
43:20Just as we're in touching distance of everything we've worked for.
43:27We're a partnership.
43:29A family.
43:31Let's not complicate or compromise.
43:35We can put all of this behind us and go on as before.
43:39I don't think you understand.
43:41I can't go on as before.
43:44Before, I was unaware.
43:46But you're under no obligation.
43:48I can't wish away two human beings, Frances.
43:54You mean to acknowledge them?
43:57I mean not to know their existence.
44:11For now.
44:15Promise me.
44:17No one need know.
44:20It would be catastrophic.
44:23For you as chairman.
44:26For us as a family.
44:28For me as your wife.
44:32I promise.
44:40How could you?
44:41I mean not to know my wife.
44:41I believe.
44:58Why do you think?
46:45It's her, isn't it, Lisa?
46:48The one who gave you this.
47:12Forgive me, Miss Herron, but...
47:13In the spirit of our recent conversation, I wanted to bring you a gift.
47:23Oh, they're beautiful.
47:27Oh, thank you.
47:30I hope they might speed you on your way to Paris and the fulfilment of your desires.
47:38Oh, Mr. Forsyte, you've been such a friend to me.
47:42I hope so.
47:45I do.
47:48And yet...
47:52With your permission, I would like to think of myself as more than a friend.
48:04Forgive me.
48:06I am well-schooled in matters of business.
48:10Less so in matters of the heart.
48:15Which, to be frank, has never been touched by a single soul until...
48:24Believe me, I never intended to speak so soon, but...
48:28Your imminent departure...
48:32I can no longer leave unsaid what I've known from the moment I saw you.
48:41You are my heart's desire.
48:44I cannot imagine a life without you.
48:50Mr. Forsyte, this is...
48:54Unexpected.
48:55But not, I hope, unwelcome.
48:58I...
49:00To be truthful, I'm...
49:03A little astonished.
49:04We scarcely know each other.
49:06But what we do know might lead us to be...
49:08Hopeful.
49:12Perhaps...
49:15Um...
49:19Then let me say one more thing.
49:22I'm convinced we could be happy.
49:26But if you find we cannot...
49:29Though, God help me, I'll move heaven and earth to make us so...
49:33I will release you.
49:35And you will be free.
49:39That's...
49:41Very generous.
49:43But if you agree to our engagement...
49:47We will go to Paris together.
49:50And from there, plan our future.
49:54And it will be all that you've dreamed of.
49:57And more.
50:05Just imagine, Cyril...
50:08Dear Soames engaged...
50:10And replacing Joa's chair.
50:14That day could be closer than you think.
50:36Come on, child.
50:39Spit it out.
50:41Of course.
50:43Taylor...
50:44Come on, child.
50:48You...
50:51I am...
50:53I am...
50:55I'm...
50:56You...
50:57I am...
51:05You...
51:05I am...
51:07You...
51:08I am...
51:08I am...
51:08You...
51:10I am...
51:10And...
