01:53conversation
01:54Word gets out there's a Guinness lady coming from Dublin. Some of the people in Clune Boom might want a
01:58conversation with you about justice
02:14Who are you, me pretty fair bhaid, and who are you, me honey?
02:18Well, who are you, me pretty fair bhaid, and who are you, me honey?
02:22Oh, she answered me, class of modestly, oh, I am me mother's darlin'
02:26Well, me too, my dear, father, little dad, diary, father, little Larry, oh
02:33Oh, will you come to me mummy's house when the moon is shining clearly?
02:38At my castle, in the Clune, there are old prison cells, and the corridors in our dungeons are wider than
02:43this
02:46If I'd known I was coming to visit a crofter's cottage, I would have dressed accordingly
02:51This is the old part of the house, madam
02:54In the new part, you could parade an elephant
02:58Have you ever seen an elephant?
03:00No, madam
03:02They are extremely intelligent animals, and they probably wouldn't accept an invitation to tea from a family that was here
03:11But, I'm here now
03:16How do I look?
03:21Very good
03:23The brewer's butters at least, not the ones
03:29This way, madam
03:30And it's there we lay till the break of the day, and there will no one did hear us
03:34There we lay till the break of the day, and there will no one did hear us
03:38Then my hallows pull all me close
03:41Say, darling, I must leave you
03:43With me too, lady, ah, fall a little lad
03:45Mary, fall a little lady, oh
03:52Lady Olivia Charlotte Hedges White
03:56Daughter of the Third Earl of Bantry
04:00Before we begin, you should know I value honesty, above all else
04:03What lies ahead may be awkward and embarrassing, so let's dispense with the pretense of tea
04:07And at least open a bottle of Madeira
04:16And since the House of Guinness is famously leaky when it comes to secrets
04:20Perhaps once the bottle is open, we can be left to serve ourselves
05:06And since the House of Guinness is open, it's open to the door
05:19I want him.
05:52Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!
05:59Stop! Stop! Stop!
06:09Fetch your doctor, please.
06:10There are no doctors in Clune, though.
06:11Then at least fetch a fucking woman. Get out, all of you.
06:14No. Stop!
06:19Stop!
06:21Stop!
06:21Stop!
06:23Stop!
06:24Stop!
06:25Stop!
06:26Stop!
06:29Stop!
06:37Stop!
06:41Stop.
06:43Stop.
06:46No!
06:48I'm giving you my help.
06:50You're going to bring me back to God's love.
07:06Don't let me go to God's love.
07:09God!
07:11I thought your Guinness is ugly black.
07:14You've lost your baby.
07:16what's gonna be our race.
07:20Oh, baby.
07:39The...
07:40This Madeira was a gift.
07:43We have wonderful relations
07:46with all the English winters in Portugal.
07:49In the summer,
07:50we go and stay in their castles.
07:53Wind blows off the Atlantic and...
07:57Well...
07:57It smells like freedom.
08:01I didn't know that freedom smelt of anything.
08:05Do you know Portugal, Lady Olivia?
08:08As I'm sure you can imagine,
08:10the European Grand Tour is rather beyond the means
08:11of the Earls of Bantry these days.
08:13Well, then,
08:15Portugal would come as a pleasant surprise.
08:18Perhaps
08:19a place for a honeymoon,
08:21should you decide to...
08:24to agree to our...
08:27To agree to your what?
08:33What are we calling it?
08:36A proposal?
08:37Yes, it is a proposal.
08:38Does she always speak for you?
08:39In matters of the heart.
08:41The heart.
08:42Oh, my.
08:44Do you shoot?
08:45And ride.
08:47In London,
08:48they would laugh at your Bantry brogue.
08:49In London,
08:50I would adapt to the ways
08:51of the dreadful Saxon savages.
08:55In the letter of proposal,
08:56I think it was made clear
08:57what kind of marriage we are offering.
08:59A mariage blanc.
09:00What is your understanding
09:02of that expression?
09:04It means if you were to choose me,
09:06we would marry.
09:08And I would take your name.
09:12But I will not be obliged
09:14to take your cock.
09:17Arthur, perhaps we could
09:18speak for a moment in private.
09:20Exactly that, Olivia.
09:22A mariage blanc is a marriage in form,
09:24but not in function.
09:25Without being indelicate,
09:27you will still be at liberty
09:28to function in other places.
09:30We are rather getting ahead of ourselves.
09:33I will,
09:35from time to time,
09:37function.
09:39In other places.
09:45And in my own way.
09:47But then what about me?
09:50A time may come
09:51when I will want
09:51that kind of affection.
09:53Well, these things
09:53are normally understood,
09:55but not said out loud.
09:56I think Arthur and I
09:57are both out loud people.
09:59If a time comes
10:00when you
10:02quietly,
10:04discreetly
10:05decide
10:06that you wish
10:07to function in...
10:08With someone
10:08who we mutually
10:10agree is pleasing...
10:11No, no, no.
10:12You will not have
10:12absolute veto.
10:14You trust my judgment.
10:16Arthur, we must adjourn
10:17this meeting immediately
10:18before...
10:18Before we all start
10:19telling the truth out loud.
10:21Well, here it is.
10:23But if an occasion
10:24arises when a smile
10:25reaches me,
10:26I want assurances
10:27that I will be
10:28at liberty to...
10:32to fuck and forget
10:33whosoever I choose
10:34so long as the servants
10:35don't find out.
10:42Arthur, I would remind you
10:43there are other names
10:44on the list.
10:45Burn the list.
10:46Ah, Arthur.
10:46In four months' time,
10:48I will be standing for election
10:49as Conservative Member of Parliament
10:50for Dublin.
10:51At heart, I am a Liberal,
10:52but I'm sure love will prevail.
10:53For Conservative Party functions,
10:55Rotary Bowls,
10:55Hunt Bowls,
10:56Shoot Stoppers,
10:57you will be by my side.
10:58And once you are elected?
10:59Oh, there will be grand tours.
11:02London,
11:03Europe,
11:04perhaps New York.
11:05For all of them,
11:06you will be arm in arm
11:07with me as my dutiful wife.
11:10I will pay your father's debts.
11:12And you will get
11:13an annual income
11:14of ten thousand pounds.
11:18Fifteen.
11:19Twelve.
11:21Fifteen it is.
11:22Arthur.
11:24In that case,
11:26proposal accepted.
11:29Well, I had to decide
11:30an hour and a half
11:31for this,
11:32followed by a croquet.
11:34There will be no croquet.
11:35Oh, thank God
11:37there will be no croquet.
11:39No?
11:40No?
11:41No?
11:42No?
11:44No.
11:45No.
11:45No.
12:02No.
12:09No.
12:11Not that one, not that one.
12:32We're in Hedges.
12:34Too impetuous for the appointments.
12:38We'll hear about the vacant position of International Vanguard.
12:42Then you appear to be applying for a job which doesn't exist.
12:47Sir?
12:49Oh, but I believe it does exist.
12:52But for the moment, this vacancy only exists in so age our head.
12:58At least to begin with, it concerns America.
13:12Let me explain.
13:14I have a friend who is a maid.
13:16What has that to do with America?
13:18Oh, she cleans your house, Miss Agnes.
13:22And sometimes she tidies her papers that you've left open on your desk.
13:25Who the fuck are you?
13:29Well, my first name is Byron, after the poet.
13:32My second name is Hedges, after my father.
13:36My mother's name...
13:40was Guinness.
13:43My mother was Patricia White Guinness.
13:46From the banking side of the family.
13:48Patricia White Guinness had an affair.
13:50And with a f-f-f-fenian.
13:52The horrible...
13:55And a bastard was born.
13:58You?
13:59She has the...
14:01Guinness certainty from my mother,
14:03and the...
14:04rebel instinct from my father.
14:06There.
14:06And where is America?
14:08In this wonderful tale of a bastard's progress.
14:11It is my pre-destined destination, Cousin Edward.
14:15Cousin?
14:17You see, according to certain papers that my friend found on your desk,
14:21you have decided to plant a black flag of Guinness.
14:29In American soil.
14:32They colonized the coasts.
14:35Flood the deserts.
14:36Submerge the Rockies in part.
14:38Not exactly how I expressed it in my scribbles.
14:40No, but in the scribbles there is passion.
14:43Passion for expansion.
14:49I've heard rumors, Cousin Edward, that...
14:52Since you and your brother have taken on this mighty Leviathan,
14:55you've decided to do things differently.
14:58And...
14:58Since I am of like mind and like you,
15:01an impetuous member of the same generation,
15:04of the same family,
15:05I've already secured a passport for travel.
15:10And a berth on a ship called the Magellan,
15:13sailing from Liverpool to New York one week from now.
15:16Or will be accommodated in New York
15:18by my cousin in the Bury district.
15:21Like my father, he is also a Fenian
15:23and a member of the Fenian Brewerhood.
15:25With whom...
15:27our relations are very, very poor.
15:30Do you have intentions to change that?
15:32More intelligence from your maid?
15:34No.
15:36Intelligence from my own intelligence.
15:40You know as well as I do,
15:43that for the brewery to be accepted in New York and Boston,
15:47for your beer to even make it through the docks.
15:51You will need the help and approval
15:53of the Fenian Brotherhood now.
15:56Bastard that I am,
15:58I am the bridge which you can walk across
16:00from boat to dock without cost or commitment.
16:04Sooner or later,
16:04you're gonna have to make friends with the Fenians, cousin.
16:08We cannot give money to the Fenian rebels.
16:17If I may be blunt,
16:20I hear your elder brother doesn't give a fuck.
16:24So you're going to need someone who does.
16:33Let the legitimate and illegitimate sides of the family
16:37conquer America together, cousin Edward.
16:50Comrade, look up at the great clock.
16:54At one o'clock outside Newgate prison in London,
16:57our comrade Michael Barrett will be hanged.
17:00for planting a bomb in London.
17:02When five witnesses have sworn a note
17:05that he was in Scotland at the time.
17:08An innocent man, lynched for obeying crown,
17:11for a crime he did not commit.
17:15The British tried to starve us in the famine,
17:18and now they want to hang us.
17:20He is being hanged for being an Irish man who loves freedom.
17:33May God bless him,
17:35and may God damn those who deny us our freedom!
17:44Arrest her!
17:46Clear the path!
17:50Stop!
17:51This is a peaceful and awful protest!
17:54You have no right!
17:55Ellen Platham!
17:56Come with us!
17:57All right!
18:01Stop!
18:06Give us a shot!
18:21No!
18:24No!
18:29No!
18:40No!
18:41No!
18:42No!
19:04Was there something to bury?
19:07No.
19:08There's barely two months, barely a thing or so.
19:13Two months.
19:17And I see time points out the father.
19:28I didn't know.
19:31But he knew.
19:34He brought me here.
19:38To punish me.
19:42For a sin.
19:47Are the guards still outside?
19:49There's no need for guards.
19:51I sent them away.
19:53I run what's left of Bloom Boo.
19:57From the carriage.
20:00I saw so many poor people.
20:03So many graves.
20:06From the great famine, yes.
20:09Finish your cup.
20:11All those people starved to death.
20:13We don't talk about those things.
20:17I'll get someone to get you something to wear underneath.
20:19And you can finish your journey.
20:21By ADD.
20:22Chat.
20:23What is your real name?
20:26Sultan.
20:27Is that how I'm known?
20:28My father left the big house at Connock to his children.
20:32I am one of them.
20:34Oh, I know who you are.
20:36And when I feel better,
20:39I would very much like to come back to Clung Boo
20:42and have you show me around.
20:44Because I think God made this happen here for a reason.
20:50Perhaps he is telling me what I should do with my life.
20:53I'll finish your cup.
20:54Or you'll have no life left to live.
21:03Here!
21:04Hold me!
21:05Hold it here!
21:05I'm in here, darling.
21:06Bring it in here!
21:07Get back!
21:09Get in there, you big bitch!
21:15Here you are, Royce.
21:18I told them to do you no harm.
21:21You told them?
21:23You told the police and they obey?
21:27Yes.
21:29It is the unjust reality.
21:33Across the sea, an innocent man was just hanged.
21:36Twelve people died in the explosion from a bomb he planted.
21:39You swallow that Saxon shit, even though you're Catholic.
21:45A tormented one.
21:46Do you want to?
21:49Why did you bring me here?
21:51We brought you here to concentrate your mind.
21:53On what?
21:54On this.
21:59Mr. Edward Guinness invites you to join him for tea
22:02at the Imperial Hotel, Sackville Street,
22:05this Friday at 4pm.
22:10The Imperial.
22:11For tea and cake
22:12and conversation.
22:18You can tell Mr. Edward Guinness
22:20that I've no desire for conversation
22:22and I have political,
22:23moral and gastronomical objections
22:25to meeting at that hotel.
22:26You don't have to eat.
22:30They don't allow people like me in.
22:33If you don't have a dress suitable for the venue,
22:35I am authorised to help out.
22:43You spilled your fucking money away.
22:46I'm not a whore.
22:47Ah, but you see,
22:50I am.
22:52Those above me,
22:53they give me money
22:55to protect them,
22:56to fend for them.
22:58I even fuck them when they ask.
23:02You tell Mr. Edward Guinness
23:05that he knows my terms of engagement
23:07and we Fenians will remain silent
23:09about his brother's sexual proclivities.
23:12If his brother opens up his mind
23:14to the Fenian cause,
23:15you don't need tea and fucking cakes
23:18to understand something so simple.
23:20I think what Mr. Guinness wants to understand
23:23is you.
23:26He wants a new beginning.
23:28He wants to shut me up before the election.
23:31I think today has proven
23:32that if we wanted to shut you up,
23:34you would be shut up
23:37in a place like this
23:38for a very long time.
23:41And if the old man were alive,
23:46oh, glory,
23:48that is what I would have done
23:51and not even mentioned it in confession.
23:58But Mr. Edward Guinness wants to hear
24:01a different point of view.
24:04Shall I keep my money?
24:10You make yourself at home.
24:12Give me that fucking five pounds.
24:44Come.
24:51So, what did you think of her?
24:53She asked me the same question.
24:56She asked me what I thought of her.
24:59How she looked.
25:03And what did you say?
25:04As a servant, I have no right to an opinion, so I said nothing.
25:09But if you were to express an opinion of the woman who was almost certain to become my future wife...
25:18It is decided.
25:21Dagnus is insisting on some due diligence regarding her lineage, and that we both have a week of reflection.
25:25But for myself, I have reflected.
25:32Hmm.
25:36Before then, it is your opinion of her that interests me.
25:41If I was forced to...
25:43You are being forced.
25:47I would say that after a very brief encounter, she is rather too sharp.
25:58That'll be all.
26:04Now, the potter seal of disapproval removes all doubt.
26:10I would go to St. Patrick's Cathedral and speak to the dean to begin making arrangements.
26:14You prepare the maids, the butlers, the grooms...
26:18For a Guinness wedding.
26:19I am him.
26:28Are you afraid to stay?
26:32I don't know.
26:34I don't know.
26:35You are afraid.
26:47I don't know.
26:49Over there, I don't know.
27:34What's this about age? What the fuck?
27:40What does the letter say?
27:42You just won't fucking believe what Rafferty just pinned to the wall of that shed.
27:45The letter Mr. Rafferty just gave me, it says that when I retire from my labors this coming Friday,
27:54even though it will be my 65th birthday on that day, and I'll be too old to work,
28:03they don't have to carry on paying me anyway.
28:06They will carry on paying me, even though I'm at home by the fire and no longer employed.
28:14And the letter says it's called an old age pension.
28:23Mr. Rafferty, you made the announcement?
28:25I pinned a notice on the wall, but I could not bring myself to announce it out loud.
28:29It is plain madness.
28:31It is the future, Mr. Rafferty.
28:32My brother will soon be standing for election,
28:34and new electoral rules mean that more ordinary workers will be allowed to vote.
28:38So you give the money for nothing?
28:40And next week we will announce phase two of the new Guinness Workers' Health and Benefits Scheme.
28:45What the fuck is in phase two?
28:47You've had enough shucks for one day, Mr. Rafferty.
29:00Yes, father, I am deadly serious.
29:26Three cheers to Mr. Edward Guinness!
29:29And he's back!
29:30Second pension!
29:32He's back!
29:33He's back!
30:02Christine, how the hell did you get in here?
30:03Well, I came here to tell you that it's decided.
30:06What is?
30:07You and I.
30:09Your father's will has left you penniless.
30:12You'll be totally dependent on your brother's charity.
30:15Penniless and dependent are like twin tigers which will scare away any woman of substance
30:18who is looking for a husband.
30:21But if you marry me, you won't need your father's money or your brother's charity.
30:26My endowment is small, but if we are in love, we can be happy and we can live in London
30:31if you want.
30:32There's a doctor there and he can help you stop your drinking and taking gas.
30:36Already stopped.
30:36I've already written to him.
30:37He said there's no such thing.
30:39It's a hopeless case.
30:45Except when it comes to love.
30:48When it comes to loving me, Christine, you are a hopeless case.
30:59Can you sit down, please?
31:13Can you sit down, please?
31:21Can you sit down, please?
31:51Once I use my name as a boss, I have to prove that I can do things on my own.
32:00I'm going to prove my father wrong.
32:04His will has given me purpose.
32:09For that, I might one day thank him.
32:48Do you have road boots?
32:49Too big for you.
32:52I'd like to borrow them, please.
33:15Sure.
33:18Show me.
33:32The question was, where was God?
33:35The answer was, he was nowhere.
33:39My husband walked to Swimfort, in rags to get seat.
33:44He would rent enough to baptise you.
33:50I got a message you got as far back as the castle.
33:55And I found him starved to death, covered with crows and magpies.
34:02Three children followed him.
34:06Donal.
34:07Green.
34:08Green.
34:09And a leaf.
34:17Are your children buried here?
34:20We were too weak to do graves.
34:24They dug a hole.
34:26They left it open and they threw them in.
34:30And you're that hungry.
34:31You can't cry.
34:35And they gave us seed from the parish in 48th.
34:38But we were so hungry, we cooked the seed.
34:41There was nothing left to plant.
34:43There was typhus.
34:45Dysentery.
34:50And we had nothing left for rent.
34:53So that Baron Brown, the house your father bought, he started the evictions.
34:59And he sent down his crowbar invincibles.
35:02Threw us into the field.
35:05Two more children.
35:07Gone.
35:08Gone.
35:10Cauch.
35:11And Fionn.
35:18Then there was the line of skeletons.
35:21And rags walking to Killala Quay.
35:25Where the soldiers put them on a boat bound for Quebec.
35:30And they were gone.
35:34We were left.
36:00What else do you want me to show you?
36:05Why did you stay?
36:06Why did you stay here?
36:08Settle your head, pay them.
36:12Send your bones to sleep.
36:17Every moment that we read
36:23Brings a moment's peace.
36:28You'll not be missing nothing.
36:31The sun shines sleeping too.
36:37The stars are lining up low.
36:44To watch your dreams with you.
36:49And if you make a wish on one.
36:54When you walk, there's a step you miss.
37:00What?
37:00The way you walk.
37:03These boots are too big for me.
37:05Well, there's a weakness on your left.
37:07What weakness?
37:09When you walk, sometimes you have to step forward.
37:12And when you bend your knee, it almost gives way.
37:15I have felt a weakness lately.
37:18But I had a doctor in Dublin do tests on my blood and he said there was nothing wrong with
37:22me.
37:23Well, it's me that's wrong, so.
37:26You should get back to your carriage.
37:29It's going to a rail.
37:32The important thing is, I came here to help you.
37:36Good night, rivers and planning.
37:40They're planning what I can do to help you people.
37:43Good night, big old, bold world.
37:47Good night, world, good night.
37:53Dear Arthur and Edward, I came to Ashford Castle to survey the property that our father left us.
38:01Along the way, I was taken ill.
38:04For reasons I don't need to divulge.
38:07I was held up in a village which is part of the Ashford Estate.
38:11I saw the devastation that was caused by the famine 20 years ago.
38:16I also saw the conditions that the people here still endure.
38:20Not absolute starvation anymore, but close to it.
38:24Just a few miles from our own front door.
38:27When I get back to Dublin, I suggest we have a meeting.
38:31I will propose, in the name of God, that from now on, at least 10% of all profits...
38:37Oh, Annie.
38:3910% of all profits made from the brewing business be devoted to feeding, housing, and saving the souls of
38:45the deserving poor on all of our states.
38:47Also in Dublin, and eventually in London and beyond.
38:52So we save the whole fucking world.
38:55Our family motto is...
38:57Spesmea in Deo.
38:59My hope is in God.
39:00With God's help, let us bring hope to all those who currently live without hope.
39:05Oh, my love, your devoted sister, Anne.
39:08Well, 10% is an absurd amount, even for little Annie.
39:15Tell me about this woman who's going to be my new sister-in-law.
39:18We don't agree, 10% is absurd.
39:21I think the principle is sound, but we would need to agree on an amount.
39:25No, no, no, we have a duty of care to the people who work for us, not to the people
39:29who happen to be standing at the roadside looking hungry when our sister's carriage breaks down.
39:34It wasn't her carriage.
39:36It was her mind then, which is broken down.
39:39We are going to need a set of values.
39:45Is this you putting forward an idea for us to discuss, or have you already decided?
39:50Arthur, if you want to get elected, you need more than just a wife at your side.
39:54What has my election got to do with it?
39:55Well, what effect do you think our decision to introduce old age pensions will have on your vote?
40:02It will increase it, maybe double it.
40:04It wasn't even my fucking decision, you presented it to me.
40:06Yes, as part of a wider plan, Arthur.
40:10Let's say it's you and Anne against me.
40:12This isn't hide and fucking seek.
40:13No, no, no, no, and I'm the what?
40:16The stubborn one.
40:18The bored one.
40:19The one who's only over half-listed.
40:20Mostly, yes.
40:21Well, now you have my attention.
40:2310 fucking percent gets my attention.
40:25I have your attention?
40:27Good.
40:36Read this.
40:40Byron Hedges.
40:42Who the fuck is Byron Hedges?
40:45That is a copy of a letter of authority that I gave to him to take to New York.
40:53You gave to him.
40:55Well, you were at the cathedral discussing floral arrangements.
41:01You look like the little brother who did something wrong.
41:10What have you done wrong, Eddie?
41:18Byron Hedges is a Fenian.
41:20Byron Hedges is a Fenian.
41:21His connections in New York are with the Fenian Brotherhood.
41:26One, two, three.
41:28Now you explode.
41:38It's my fault, really.
41:42You're being so distracted.
41:47That is just a copy, Arthur.
41:49The original is aboard a ship that's already left Liverpool.
41:53When I'm back from Portugal, after the wedding, I will begin to assert some kind of rational control.
41:57Yes.
41:58Yes, yes, yes.
41:59The future, Arthur.
42:00In the future, we will see both sides of the home rule debate.
42:04For now, we are in the middle.
42:06Our concern is the people.
42:07What the fuck do I care about the people for and the Conservatives?
42:10Benevolence equals votes.
42:12Votes equal power.
42:14Power equals expansion.
42:16And expansion equals greater profits.
42:18After the wedding, we will sit down and speak rationally, brother.
42:22Not ten percent.
42:24Five percent.
42:26And some of that we spend in New York and Boston.
42:29Guns and ammunition for our new Fenian friends.
42:32No, Arthur, of course not.
42:33Charitable works.
42:39Since I have your attention, I will propose that from now on, in America and elsewhere,
42:48in the world, the new symbol of Guinness will be this.
42:55It will be our trademark, and it will represent what we are.
43:00The heart of Irish hero, Brian Boru, a symbol of all Ireland.
43:06Of Celtic Ireland.
43:10Of Catholic Ireland.
43:12You want to put it on the fire?
43:16Christ!
43:19All this goodness!
43:21This kindness!
43:23Pensions and harps!
43:24It's just you...
43:24You're submitting to fucking blackmail!
43:27Fuck off!
43:28Fuck off!
43:32If the Fenians were my fault, and bit by bit, you would nudge me to their side.
43:36Just to save a fucking factory!
43:37Brummery!
43:38Yes!
43:39And to save your name, Arthur!
43:43Are you brave?
43:45Are you that brave?
43:48Are you that brave to have it all revealed?
43:53So do you want me to continue to walk the time rope?
44:17All those in favour of adopting the Irish harp as the Guinness trademark.
44:23Look, say, I.
44:34I.
44:40Mr. Guinness, would you like to order something whilst you're waiting for your guest?
44:45Yes. Two bottles of Guinness.
44:48Of course, sir.
44:56Madam, the staff entrance is around the back in Sackville Place.
45:00No, Colin. The lady is expected. Follow me.
45:18Mr. Guinness, Miss Ellen Cochran.
45:22Oh, Miss Cochran.
45:25Please, take a seat.
45:41As you see, I'm known in the city.
45:43And I imagine you knew the effect that my entrance would have.
45:46I knew very well the effect your entrance would have.
45:52The black armband is for Michael Barrett, I assume?
45:56For an innocent man who was lynched in a public place, yes.
45:59I actually sent a letter to the Home Secretary suggesting his clemency.
46:04But in London, unlike in Dublin, the Guinnesses don't always get their way.
46:10For now, yes.
46:15Would you like me to pour, sir?
46:16No, I'll pour.
46:19I don't drink in the daytime.
46:21These are not for drinking.
46:23They are purely for the purpose of illustration.
46:27What illustration?
46:30You see, there is a particular technique when it comes to pouring Guinness.
46:38When you start to pour, the beer, quite rightly, is very excited to be free.
46:44And it fizzes in the glass.
46:46So while the first glass settles and gets used to the situation, you start to pour the next.
47:01And then you wait for the porter to calm down.
47:05I call it the Guinness Minute.
47:07I was told that you wanted to meet me.
47:10Can you get to the point?
47:11This is my point.
47:13These two have poured glasses of Guinness.
47:16Represent the state of Ireland.
47:18At this moment, excited by your dream of independence.
47:22But in need of a little time to reflect.
47:26And you reduce our struggles to beer?
47:29That's what I know, Miss Cochran.
47:33I also know that when you complete the pour, to fill the glass, it is important that you do it
47:40slowly.
47:42Carefully.
47:47And as with your political struggle, you will only be successful if you keep your head.
48:11I'm still not drinking what you poured in me, Mr. Guinness.
48:14Miss Cochran, what I am offering is that we go on a journey as honorable people.
48:20And we go on the journey together.
48:24A long, slow stroll, arm-in-arm with the capitalists and the unionists.
48:29The situation is simple.
48:31When your brother is elected, he will use all that famous Guinness power and influence to make the English parliament
48:39see the wisdom of Irish independence.
48:42We can help him by showing him that the Fenians are not wild bandits.
48:47I wanted to meet you here, in a public place, to make a statement that all of Dublin society can
48:53understand.
48:57Also, my brother is getting married, and we are inviting carefully selected Dubliners who represent different parts of society.
49:05I'm invited to a Guinness wedding.
49:07I know you are not married, but you can bring your brother.
49:12I'm keen to meet him as well.
49:22I have certain rules, which I mostly abide by.
49:27Sometimes I break my rules.
49:31Cutting off the walls, looking like a rabbit hound.
49:33Get up out of that, get up off the ground.
49:35I'll tell you to the chair, if you don't simmer down.
49:37You're the world's worst patron, saved up stout.
49:39Actually, Lee, didn't I bar you's last week?
49:41And what are you doing with a spliff in your mouth?
49:42Right there, never mind, what'll it be like?
49:45Another round, another round, another round, another round, another round, another round, another round, another round, another round, another round,
49:52another round, another round, another round.
49:54I'm assuming Green Calico and the Woollen Chow will be just grand.
49:58On a grand day, it'll be.
