00:23Do you truly love me?
00:28Trust me.
00:37But, Mrs Edwards...
00:39Mrs Edwards thinks you're a child still.
00:43But we know better than that, don't we?
01:11But when will you come back?
01:14See you.
01:16Very soon.
01:19But when?
01:20Very soon.
01:23Very soon.
01:23Very soon.
01:42Very soon.
02:02You should prepare yourself.
02:04I have done all I can.
02:07I have done all I can.
02:19I have done all I can.
02:51I have done all I can.
03:13I have done all I can.
03:18I have done all I can.
03:25I have done all I can.
03:33I have done all I can.
03:36I have done all I can.
04:13Norland Park
04:15Ours at last
04:18Come to bed
04:21I promised father I would do something for them
04:24You are the most generous of men
04:27I hope you don't intend to spoil them
04:30Not spoil them
04:31I have written to Mary
04:33Saying that they may expect us on Monday
04:39Blow out the candle, dear
04:45Monday
04:47But that's today
04:49I had not thought it would be so soon
04:52Are there no heart at all?
04:53It is their house now, Marianne
04:55But why, Eleanor?
04:56It isn't fair, is it?
04:58It is the way things are, Meg
05:00Mr. John Dashwood is father's only son
05:02And sons are always heirs
05:04There's nothing anyone can do about it
05:06How can you be so calm about it?
05:08Oh, mother, don't cry, dear
05:09But what will we do?
05:10Will we have to live with gypsies?
05:12I'd rather live with the gypsies than share a roof with Aunt Fanny
05:15She's an insufferable woman
05:16If she comes to live here, I might even poison her
05:24I thought of giving the girls a thousand pounds apiece
05:27Would that be fair, do you think?
05:30A thousand apiece?
05:31Are you mad?
05:33Do you rob your only child of his rightful inheritance?
05:37Henry
05:37Your father proposes to steal three thousand pounds from you
05:42And give it to his half-sisters
05:44You think it too generous
05:46Five hundred apiece?
05:48Ooh, that would be beyond anything generous
05:51When you think that they will have three thousand on their mother's death
05:55A very comfortable fortune for any young woman, I should have thought
06:00But your papa is set on loving you, Henry
06:04Perhaps the matter does require further thought
06:06But I'm determined to help them, Fanny
06:11Mama, they won't expect you to give up your own bedroom
06:14It is their house now
06:15Of course, they will expect the best it has to offer
06:17Mama, our brother has a kind heart
06:23He wouldn't want you to be uncomfortable
06:26He promised papa he would look after us all
06:30Yes, yes, he did
06:32And he will
06:34I'm sure of it
06:36To say the truth, I am convinced your father had no idea of your giving them any money at all
06:43What would they spend it on?
06:45They will have no carriage, no horses
06:48Hardly any servants
06:51Yes
06:52I suppose
06:53And consider, my dear, you owe no particular gratitude to your father
06:56Nor attention to his wishes
06:58But we very well know that if he could
07:00He would have left almost everything in the world to them
07:09Upon my word, I do believe you're right
07:11My father must have meant nothing more than what you said
07:14Just a general concern for their welfare
07:18Occasional presence of fish and game and so forth
07:21Exactly
07:23There, there, darling
07:25We shan't let the past start
07:27You know, we shan't
07:46I shan't speak to them when they come in
07:49Yes, you will
07:50We shall all be on our best behaviour
07:53Because we are the visitors now
08:01Oh, really, Mary, there's no need for that
08:06Well, here we are at last
08:16After you, my dear
08:18Of course
08:22So, Eleanor
08:23Still at your music?
08:26Marianne still sketching away?
08:28You see?
08:29I remember everything
08:30Other way round, Aunt
08:32Marianne is the musician
08:34Oh, yes
08:37And what about you, Margaret?
08:39I'm going to be a writer
08:40A writer?
08:42Well, pen and paper cost very little
08:45You have made a sensible choice
08:47This is an elegant dinner service
08:50Of course, you will have no use for it
08:52When you move to a smaller place
08:54My dear
08:55And of course, it belongs here
08:58Belongs to the house
08:59And the house belongs to you
09:01Though you neither care for it
09:03Nor need it
09:04Nor deserve it
09:06Marianne
09:16You know you really can't say things like that
09:18At the dinner table
09:20To their faces
09:21Well, it's true
09:21She cares nothing for Norland
09:23Only for the pounds, shillings and pence
09:24It's worth
09:25And it's quite clear
09:26Our brother has no intention
09:27Of honouring his promise to papa
09:29I know, but
09:31My dears
09:33Mr. Gridley
09:34Has found us two very suitable houses
09:38Beecham Court
09:39And Thrush Place
09:40I favour Beecham Court
09:42Look, Marianne
09:43It has a gazebo
09:44And the grounds are very manageable
09:46I should think
09:47Mama, they're both far beyond our income
09:50We have only £400 a year
09:55Well, they're both smaller than Norland
09:58Eleanor
10:02Mama, we need to think
10:03Very differently now
10:07We could hardly afford the gatehouse
10:09At Beecham Court
10:18I suppose you would have us live in a rabbit hutch
10:20Not quite, Mama
10:22A cottage would answer very well
10:24Sometimes, Eleanor
10:26I think you don't understand how I feel
10:28I do, Mama
10:30Truly, I do
10:33But we have to be practical
10:35Oh, here you all are
10:37I wondered where you were all hiding
10:41I have just heard from my brother Edward
10:43He is coming to stay
10:45And we expect his visit to be a long one
10:47So we are very favoured
10:49I believe you have never met him
10:51No
10:52As the eldest son
10:53He will, of course, inherit a considerable fortune
10:55And we expect great things of him
10:58Parliament, perhaps
11:00He will make his mark upon the world
11:02No doubt of that
11:04So much to do before he arrives
11:06He has a very discerning eye
11:08And I shouldn't want him to find fault with anything
11:12Well, things to do
11:14Things to do
11:21I bet he is just like her
11:23I bet he is just like her
11:48This might be fine
11:49That's why she isSQL
11:59Um, she is just like she some
11:59She has a 아니야
12:03Guns
12:03For one corner
12:03At the bottom
12:40Martha!
12:50Martha, what are you doing?
12:52Didn't you do them a week ago?
12:53Mrs John Dashwood's orders, Miss.
12:55They're all to be done again with the gentleman coming.
12:59Those carpets are clean.
13:02Go and see to your work.
13:05Thank you, Miss Eleanor.
13:20Good morning.
13:21Oh, I was just...
13:23Beating carpets?
13:24Yes.
13:25Edward Ferrars, how do you do?
13:28My horse has thrown a shoe, so I came by way of the stables.
13:32Eleanor Dashwood.
13:35Would you like some help?
13:37With the carpet beating?
13:40No.
13:42I'd better take you in to see your sister.
13:54Edward!
13:56The state of view!
13:57Where are your things?
13:59They're sending them on from the inn.
14:00I felt like a ride, so I borrowed a horse.
14:02How long are you going to stay?
14:04Margaret.
14:04I am entirely dependent on Mrs Dashwood, of course.
14:08I wouldn't want to overstay my welcome.
14:15I shall have you shown to your room immediately.
14:21What on earth possessed you to arrive here looking like a country bumpkin?
14:25My dear Fanny, we are in the country after all.
14:35I think the first thing to do is rip out all this stingy old panelling, so dark and dusty,
14:42I'm sure you will agree, and all these old books.
14:44How could a gentleman bear to sit in a gloomy old den like this?
14:50Oh, Eleanor.
14:54Well, do not let us disturb you.
14:59Here, will you take this?
15:01Franny?
15:03Yes, Edward?
15:04Let me explain.
15:07This is a library.
15:09A place of refuge.
15:11Libraries should be full of dusty old books and nooks and corners and places to hide away in.
15:22Do you know, Fanny, I do believe this library is quite perfect just as it is.
15:28Edward, you know you only say these things to annoy me.
15:40I'm afraid it must pain you to see my sister refurbishing Norland after her own taste.
15:46It is her house now.
15:48She must do a cheesy split, I suppose.
15:50She's doing her level best to refurbish me, too.
15:54I'm a grave disappointment to my family, Miss Dashwood.
15:58Fanny would like me to be a great man of some sort.
16:02Important.
16:04Talked about.
16:05Riding around in a barouche.
16:07And you don't see yourself in a barouche?
16:10A pony and trap would do me very well.
16:13I want to go into the church, you see.
16:15A quiet country parish.
16:17But that's not smart enough for my family.
16:22I think we all have to find our own ways to be happy.
16:26So do I.
16:28And I think I prefer your notion of happiness.
16:31Do you?
16:33Good.
16:34A quiet country parish it is, then.
16:40This must be a very hard time, V.
16:44Your father's death.
16:46My own father died when I was 17.
16:52I was like a boat that had lost its anchor.
16:57We must all have someone to listen to us.
17:01To understand what we feel.
17:06Eleanor!
17:08It's not fair.
17:10What's not fair?
17:11Henry's got my pony.
17:13Nobody asked me if he could ride him.
17:15And he's pulling his mouth.
17:16Meg, he doesn't mean any harm.
17:18And you're much too big now for such a little horse.
17:21It is a matter of principle.
17:23You are quite right.
17:24I will speak to my sister about it.
17:27Meanwhile, how about setting your sights a bit higher than a pony?
17:31And the story.
17:56You are quite right.
18:00You are quite right.
18:01Maybe they're故iy.
19:16Oh, Mama.
19:18How shall we do without her?
19:20Oh, my love.
19:22It'll scarcely be a separation.
19:24We shall take a house within a few miles of them and meet every day.
19:29You will gain a brother.
19:31A real affectionate brother.
19:35Edward is very amiable, but for me there is something wanting.
19:42Mama, I am not sure that he really loves poetry, and I am sure he only praises Eleanor's drawings because
19:47they are hers.
19:49Yes, but I require so much.
19:52I think I shall never see a man that I can really and truly love.
19:56My dear, you're not yet seventeen. It's a little early to despair of finding happiness.
20:01Yes.
20:04Do you love him?
20:10I think very highly of him.
20:16I like him, Marianne.
20:18But is he worthy of you?
20:21He has no taste for drawing or music or anything of that kind.
20:25There are worse faults than failing to appreciate your music.
20:29But his reading last evening, so calm and spiritless.
20:34He has a different style from yours.
20:36He allows the words to speak for themselves.
20:39Well?
20:41When you tell me to love him as my brother-in-law, I promise I'll think him as perfect as
20:44you do.
20:46Marianne, there is no question of that.
20:48Not yet.
20:50He has family duties. He has obligations.
20:52What obligations?
20:55I don't know.
20:56If he loves you, he will act upon his feelings whatever his family might say.
21:00Marianne, stop.
21:01Nothing has been said between us.
21:05I do have feelings for him.
21:08And I believe he returns them.
21:10But please don't hope for something that may never happen.
21:14Then you're not engaged.
21:17I was sure that you were in secret.
21:20No.
21:22Well, I'm sure it will happen very soon.
21:25And so am I.
21:27Margaret!
21:28Get down from there this minute!
21:30Get down from there, Margaret!
21:31I am sorry!
21:37Get down from there!
21:40I am sorry, Margaret!
21:47Get down from there, Margaret!
21:51Get down from there to find me.
21:52You're in secret!
21:53I am sorry to walk in the house.
21:53Get down from there.
21:54I'm sorry!
21:54Oh, je se...
21:59Stay a moment, if you would, Mary.
22:06I just wanted to give you a little hint about my brother Edward.
22:12I think he is enjoying his visit, Fanny.
22:15You must know that my mother, Mrs. Ferrars, has very high hopes of him.
22:21I'm sure he will fulfil them.
22:22Both in terms of his career and his marriage.
22:25He will be expected to marry a young lady either of high rank or great fortune, preferably both.
22:33I see.
22:35His happiness will depend upon our mother's wishes.
22:39If he goes against her, he will get nothing.
22:43So, you see, any young woman who tries to draw him in will find herself gravely disappointed.
22:58Just a little hint, Mary.
23:06Thank you, Fanny.
23:07I'm much obliged to you.
23:23It's from Sir John Middleton, a cousin of mine.
23:27He has offered us a cottage on his estate.
23:31Sir John is so genteel and accommodating, and he writes in such a warm and friendly style.
23:37What do you think, Eleanor?
23:38The cottage is small, and the rent is very moderate.
23:42We should probably need only two servants.
23:44I think we should consider it, Mama.
23:46I shall write and accept Sir John's offer immediately.
23:48Without seeing it?
23:49I am determined to leave this house before the week is out.
24:00A cottage in Devonshire.
24:03You will be very cosy.
24:06Devonshire is a long way away.
24:08Not too far for our true friends to visit us, Mr Ferris.
24:11I hope we shall be able to welcome you at Barton Cottage very soon.
24:15Thank you, Mrs Dashwood.
24:17It would be an honour.
24:28Sir John Middleton must be very well set up to be able to offer you hospitality at so low a
24:33rent, Mary.
24:34He says he saw the opportunity to do a good turn and was glad to take it.
24:39Such kindness, a man we have never even met.
25:07Excuse me, Edward.
25:09I must just ask Mama something.
25:11Come along, Meg.
25:26Shall you be very sorry to leave Norland?
25:30Of course.
25:32But in the circumstances...
25:35Yes.
25:36Yes, quite.
25:39Yes.
25:43These last few weeks have been very happy ones for me.
25:48For me too.
25:52In fact, I don't think I've ever been happier.
25:58Yes.
26:04I'm very glad to have been able to offer you friendship at this difficult time.
26:11And I want you to know that I very much value your friendship too.
26:50Excuse me.
26:52Excuse me.
26:53Yes.
26:53Yes.
26:55Yes.
27:18Thank you, John.
27:30Edward promise you'll come and see us soon as soon as I can
28:05well my dear I have no knees for you we shall see him again very soon I know we shall
28:48take care of me
28:51Oh, no!
29:21Oh, no!
29:54Oh, no, no!
29:55Look, it's a suit!
29:56And you think that's a cotton?
30:23Oh, mama, how romantic.
30:42Oh, no, no!
30:44Oh, no, no!
30:56We should have thought to send Thomas and Alison ahead of us.
31:07With a fire in every room, it will soon be cheerful.
31:10Who is to light the fires?
31:13Well...
31:15I could light a fire.
31:18I should think.
31:26No door will.
31:38It is the door to the door.
31:39It is a door to the door...
31:41And even if we don't, the door will noise.
31:42Um, it's a door.
32:11Eleanor, can we really settle here, do you think?
32:14Of course we can.
32:17We must.
32:20Mama, there's someone coming!
32:22Oh, good heavens.
32:24Hello!
32:31So, Cousin Mary, pleasure to meet you at last.
32:34There we are.
32:35Just a little something for your larder.
32:39Welcome to Devonshire.
32:42I cannot thank you enough for your kindness, Sir John.
32:45No, no, no, none of that.
32:47I'm delighted to have you here.
32:49I like nothing so much as company.
32:52I saw you drive past the house.
32:53You should have come in.
32:55So, these are your girls?
32:57Yes.
32:58Well, well, well.
32:59How are you, my dears?
33:01Uh, this is my eldest, Eleanor.
33:04And Marianne, and my youngest, Margaret.
33:07Delightful.
33:08Well, very pleased to welcome three such pretty girls.
33:11I dare say we'll find you all husbands before the year's out.
33:14How's that?
33:17Um...
33:17Why, whatever's the matter?
33:18What did I say?
33:19My youngest sister is perhaps a little young for a husband, sir.
33:23Is she?
33:24Yes, I suppose she is.
33:27I know nothing of these matters.
33:29I leave it to the women.
33:30My mother-in-law, Mrs Jennings, is a great authority on these matters.
33:33And you will meet her by and by.
33:35Because I insist that you dine at Barton Park today and every day until you are properly settled.
33:40Oh, that is too...
33:40I insist, I absolutely insist.
33:43And my dear wife wouldn't hear of anything else.
33:46Company, company, where would we be without company?
33:49I will send the carriage for you at four o'clock.
33:51Sharp.
33:52Sharp.
34:25My dear, have you ever seen such pretty girls?
34:29Indeed.
34:30You are almost welcome.
34:35Ah, here's my mother-in-law.
34:37What kept you so long, madam?
34:39Too much time at your looking-glass, I'll be bound.
34:42Wicked man.
34:43Oh, my looking-glass days are over these many years.
34:49Well, now.
34:53We must see what we can do for them, eh, Mrs Jennings?
34:55Lovers, husbands, that sort of thing.
34:57What?
34:58Well, how do we know they haven't left their hearts behind in Sussex, eh?
35:01Eleanor has.
35:03Ah, now we come to it.
35:06I thought I saw a little blush.
35:07No, really.
35:09Consider nothing settled, for a certain gentleman is coming to stay with us,
35:13who may make you forget all your fancies.
35:16What do you say, Sir John?
35:18Colonel Brandon.
35:20Yes, indeed.
35:21A military hero.
35:23Served in the East Indies.
35:25They say he had his heart broke,
35:27and he has never looked at a woman since.
35:31Not in that sort of way, you know.
35:34But when he sees the Miss Dashwoods, I think we may find he has to change his mind.
35:39I think he may.
35:40I think he may.
35:42He stayed faithful to his first love, do you say?
35:45I like that.
35:47That is as it should be.
35:48For myself, when I fall in love, it will be forever.
35:52Very proper.
35:54And very romantic.
35:56And just what a young lady ought to think.
35:58Colonel Brandon has arrived.
36:01Bring him in, Jenkins.
36:02Bring him in.
36:05Come in, dear friend.
36:06We were just speaking of you.
36:09I'm not intruding?
36:10Not a bit of it.
36:11You couldn't have arrived at a better time.
36:13Lady Middleton?
36:15Mrs. Jennings?
36:16Naughty man to keep away so long.
36:18I had some necessary business.
36:21Mrs. Dashwood.
36:23Miss Dashwood.
36:26Miss Marianne Dashwood.
36:30Miss Margaret Dashwood.
36:32Honour to make your acquaintance.
36:34Now, what do you say, Mrs. Dashwood?
36:36I think you'd do for one of them, don't you?
36:54Let's go.
36:58Let's go.
36:59No, don't you?
37:00I think you can do it.
37:02No, don't you?
37:03Oh, my God.
37:12PIANO PLAYS
37:36First-class category. Well done indeed.
37:39What do you think, Brandon? You know music?
37:44Yes, um, remarkable.
37:47May I play now, Mama?
37:49Of course, my dear. The more, the merrier.
37:57Your sister plays with extraordinary feeling for one so young.
38:01She would be grateful for your good opinion, I'm sure.
38:04I once knew a young woman who played with that intensity of feeling.
38:09But, um, I think your sister has a shurer technique.
38:14I would be glad to pass on your compliments, but why should you not tell her yourself?
38:18We were talking about your performance, Marianne.
38:20Oh.
38:22Remarkable.
38:23Yes, so you said.
38:25I cannot tell whether that means you approve it or not.
38:28I noticed you played the last movement of Passionato, Miss Dashwood, and I believe the composer marked it allegro.
38:34And you disapprove of that?
38:36No, not at all.
38:38I found it, um, original.
38:43Oh.
38:45If we are to dine at Barton Park every night, we'll be paying a heavy price for Sir John's generosity.
38:50Marianne, that's unkind.
38:52Sir John is all affability.
38:55And Mrs Jennings seems delighted to have our company.
38:58Eleanor, how could you bear their relentless vulgar tees?
39:01I was embarrassed.
39:02But they meant no harm.
39:04And Lady Middleton, so cold and insipid.
39:08And they all pretended to like music, though none of them listened to it, nor cared for it.
39:12Colonel Brandon listened with great attention.
39:14Yes, and found fault with my playing.
39:15I think Colonel Brandon has a little more discernment than your usual audience.
39:19I think he's the sort of man that likes to find fault with everybody and everything.
39:48I think he's the sort of man that likes to find fault with everybody and everything.
40:29Mama, it's that man's!
40:31It's Colonel Brandon!
40:35Meg, Meg!
40:48Colonel Brandon, ma'am.
40:50I don't know.
41:00I had occasion to ride over to my home at Delaford earlier this morning.
41:03I took the liberty of bringing you these flowers, Mrs. Dashman.
41:06Oh.
41:08Well, thank you. They're beautiful.
41:10And I, uh, looked out some music,
41:12which I thought might be of interest to Miss Marianne.
41:25I think you overestimate my abilities, sir.
41:28I think not.
41:30You have an instrument here?
41:32Yes. Of sorts.
41:34Well, I have a very fine piano forse at Delaford
41:36that deserves to be played on more often.
41:38I hope you will try it one day.
41:43Will you sit down? Take some refreshment, Colonel.
41:46Thank you. No, I shan't intrude on you any longer.
41:48I'm sure I shall have the pleasure of seeing you all soon at Barton Park.
41:51Good day.
42:05I'll see you later.
42:06Thanks a lot.
42:06Bye bye.
42:09Bye bye bye.
42:13Bye bye.
42:20Bye bye.
43:21There's no doubt of that.
43:23I wouldn't have thought it.
43:24I was near to despairing of him.
43:26But it'll be a fine match, Mrs. Dashwood.
43:29For he's a rich man with a good heart.
43:34Marianne is very young.
43:36Seventeen is a little too soon to be thinking of marriage.
43:39Not a bit of it, my dear.
43:41I was married at sixteen myself.
43:43The sooner the better, I say.
43:46But you'll bear him some fine big sons.
43:49What do you say, Miss Eleanor?
43:51Your sister's stolen a march on you.
43:53I hope you didn't have designs on the colonel yourself.
43:56Has the colonel spoken to you about his feelings for my sister?
43:59Well, not in so many words.
44:01But you can't mistake it.
44:04The man's besotted with her.
44:06And why should he not be?
44:12He'd be a fine catch for any girl.
44:16If she could get him.
44:28And is this what everybody thinks?
44:32How mortifying!
44:34Eleanor!
44:35You like him, Marianne?
44:37Yes!
44:39But because he is the only person in the neighbourhood
44:42with whom one can have an intelligent conversation,
44:44I never thought he meant...
44:46Eleanor, he's too old!
44:48He is 35, Marianne.
44:52Five years younger than I am,
44:54and I never thought of myself as being quite decrepit.
44:56That's unfair, Mama.
44:57You know I never meant that.
44:59Most people, I think,
45:01would still consider Colonel Brandon a young man.
45:03No one's forcing him upon you, my dear,
45:05but men of 35 have married girls of 17 before, I believe.
45:14You do both realise it will be impossible for me to speak to him again.
45:21Except in company.
45:22His name's the only job.
45:24What?
45:44I don't know.
45:45I know.
46:04Marianne, Colonel Brandon's coming.
46:07Come on, Meg, out the back.
46:09What for?
46:09A healthy walk.
46:12Marianne?
46:14Really?
46:15I told you, Mama.
46:19Come on, Meg.
46:22Marianne.
46:28But I don't want to go for a walk.
46:31Yes, you do.
46:32It's about Colonel Brandon, isn't it?
46:35Don't you like him anymore?
46:36I simply felt an urgent need of fresh air and exercise.
46:41I think it's going to rain.
47:01Is there a felicity in the world superior to this?
47:07Margaret, we will walk here at least two hours.
47:27I told you it was rain.
47:29What of it?
47:31Sweet, refreshing rain.
47:34Born that I was a little tiny girl with a hey-ho.
47:38The wind and the rain.
47:41It's so mad!
47:44Well, my compliments to Miss Marianne and Miss Margaret.
47:47Marianne will be so sorry to have missed you, Colonel Brandon.
47:50I'm sure she'd want to thank you for the books.
47:52So thoughtful of you.
47:53No, not at all.
47:54Well, good day, Mrs Dashwood.
47:56Miss Dashwood.
47:56Won't you wait till the rain has stopped?
47:58No.
47:59Well, I, uh, fear I've outstayed my welcome already.
48:03Good day.
48:11I don't like this, Marianne.
48:13And I'm all wet.
48:15This has all been a very silly idea.
48:17Nonsense!
48:19A little rain never hurt anybody.
48:21Come on, let's...
48:34Are you hurt?
48:36Don't move.
48:37Stay there.
48:37I'll come to you.
48:41Where are you injured?
48:43My ankle.
48:45You will commit me.
48:46I know a little about these things.
48:58No bones broken.
49:01But it's a bad sprain.
49:03You mustn't walk on it.
49:05It's the good to put your arm around my neck.
49:08Go ahead, Margaret.
49:12Mama, Helena!
49:14Mama, Helena!
49:21Mama, we're running down the hill.
49:23Marianne fell and hurt herself.
49:25And the other man is carrying her.
49:26Don't be alarmed, I beg you, madam.
49:28Her injuries are minor.
49:29Her sprained ankle and some bruising only.
49:32Here, let me set you down.
49:34Ah.
49:37There.
49:41Forgive the intrusion, madam.
49:42I couldn't think I was to manage it.
49:44I happened to be passing.
49:45I saw her fall.
49:46Clearly, she was unable to stand or walk.
49:48And so here we are.
49:50She'll need to rest the ankle for a few days.
49:52But she should recover very soon.
49:54Excuse me.
49:55And now I'll leave you.
49:57Oh, um, will you not sit down for a moment, sir?
50:01Warm yourself by the fire.
50:02No, thank you, madam.
50:03I won't intrude any longer.
50:06Perhaps you will allow me to return tomorrow
50:08to see how your daughter...
50:12Your daughter...
50:12Oh, my younger daughter, Marianne.
50:14To see how your daughter, Marianne, is progressing.
50:17This is so kind of you, sir.
50:19May we know your name?
50:20My name is Willoughby, ma'am.
50:22Willoughby of Allenham.
50:27Until tomorrow, then.
50:33Thank you again, Mr. Willoughby.
50:41Well.
50:44Willoughby.
50:46Willoughby of Allenham.
50:47It's a good name, isn't it, Eleanor?
50:48It has a poetic ring.
50:50Willoughby of Allenham.
50:52He was very handsome, wasn't he, Marianne?
50:55He has a true natural grace and strength.
50:59He picked me up and carried me as if I were no more than a feather.
51:01And you put your arm right around his neck.
51:03I saw you.
51:04What of that?
51:05Truly good manners have nothing to do with convention.
51:08I thought Mr. Willoughby's manners were impeccable.
51:11And such a sweet smile.
51:13Did you remark his eyes, Mama?
51:15Mm-hmm.
51:15He has very fine eyes.
51:20Willoughby.
51:22Willoughby of Allenham.
51:23Willoughby of Allenham has left some very muddy footprints in the passage.
51:32Willoughby?
51:33Is he in the country?
51:34I'll ride over and invite him to dinner on Thursday.
51:37Do you know him, then?
51:38Know him?
51:38Very well.
51:40He comes down every year.
51:44Er, what kind of a man is he?
51:46Well, he's as good a kind of fellow as ever lived.
51:49He's a very decent shot.
51:50And there's no bolder rider in England.
51:53But what is he like?
51:54What are his manners on closer acquaintance?
52:00Upon my soul, I don't know much about him as to all that.
52:04He's a pleasant, cheerful fellow.
52:06And he has the prettiest little pointer bitch I've ever seen.
52:09Was he out with her today?
52:10Yes.
52:11Well, there you are.
52:13Is he married, Sir John?
52:15Mama!
52:16Ah.
52:17Ah.
52:18I see where this is leading.
52:21No, he is not married.
52:23He comes down to visit the old lady at Allenham Court and he will inherit there.
52:27He also has a pretty little estate of his own in Somersetshire.
52:32Aye, aye.
52:33I see how it will be.
52:35You will set your cap at him now.
52:37Never think of poor Brandon.
53:04He's coming.
53:06Willoughby is coming.
53:08Quickly.
53:09Quickly, quickly.
53:12Mr. Willoughby, ma'am.
53:17And how is the invalid this morning?
53:19Pretty well, I thank you.
53:21Thanks to you, Mr. Willoughby.
53:23Not at all.
53:24I count myself lucky to have been passing at the time.
53:27I was up early this morning.
53:28I picked these wild strawberries for you.
53:31Wild strawberries?
53:32I love wild strawberries.
53:34I thought you might.
53:35Shall I?
53:37Thank you, Mr. Willoughby.
53:40Oh, thank you.
53:41We have been hearing all about you, Mr. Willoughby.
53:44Sir John says that you are very fond of dancing.
53:47Indeed I am.
53:48And hope to have the pleasure of proving it to you all before long.
53:51When Miss Marianne's ankle is fully recovered.
53:53Yeah.
53:55Meg.
54:00You care for poetry, too?
54:03Not very much.
54:05Oh, I see you're reading Pope.
54:09Are you fond of Pope?
54:10No.
54:11My sentiments exactly.
54:13He's too rational for me.
54:15More to be admired than loved.
54:16That is just what I think.
54:18Do you know Lord Byron?
54:19No, I have heard of him.
54:20So we'll go no more roving so late into the night.
54:23Though my heart be still as loving, the moon be still as bright.
54:27He is a true romantic.
54:28That is just the sort of thing I like.
54:30And I.
54:37Isn't it extraordinary, Mama, that it should have been Mr. Willoughby who was passing when I fell down the hill?
54:42Oh, yes.
54:43It might have been some uncouth old farmer who'd never read a word of Byron in his life.
54:49Oh, who could that be?
54:50Colonel Brandon, ma'am.
54:58I, uh, I heard of your accident.
55:00I trust you were not seriously injured?
55:02No, not at all.
55:04No, I see that you are not.
55:05Thank God for that.
55:07Colonel Brandon, um, do you know Mr. Willoughby?
55:12Ah, yes.
55:13How do you do, sir?
55:15Very well, thank you, Brandon.
55:17Thank you, Brandon.
55:26Well, having ascertained that Miss Marion is on the mend, I will intrude no longer.
55:32Good day to you.
55:41Extraordinary.
55:43He's an extraordinary man.
55:59What are your intentions towards Miss Marianne Dashiell?
56:02I cannot be blamed if Marianne prefers my company to yours.
56:05We're closer in age, in temperament, in taste.
56:08If we were doing wrong, I should have felt it at the time.
56:10But it's already exposed you to some very impertinent remarks from Sir John and Mrs. Jennings.
56:15Ellen, I don't care what those people think.
56:18I'm sure Edward would never be unwilling or reluctant to see us.
56:22What did he come here for if not to propose to you?
56:25I don't know.
56:27I'm sorry to say our expedition will have to be postponed.
56:29I'm called away on urgent personal business.
56:34Willoughby!
56:35When are you coming back?
56:37Willoughby!
56:38Your sister's engagement to Mr. Willoughby is widely spoken of.
56:42Is everything finally settled?
56:43No.
56:47Willoughby!
56:48Oh, my God.
57:18Oh, my God.
