01:10The End
01:32What? Up already, Miss Eyre?
01:35I see you're an early riser.
01:39Did you sleep well?
01:41You were so tired after your journey.
01:43Thank you, Mrs. Fairfax.
01:44I'm not a bit tired now.
01:46What a beautiful place Stormfield is.
01:49It's not in the order it should be by any means.
01:52I wish Mr. Rochester would take it into his head to live here as permanent late.
01:56Mr. Rochester?
01:57Your employer, my dear.
01:58The owner of Stormfield.
01:59But doesn't Stormfield belong to you?
02:01To me?
02:02Oh, bless you, Miss Eyre.
02:04I know you're the housekeeper.
02:06But you engaged me.
02:08Mr. Rochester commissioned me to find a governess for a dale.
02:11She's his ward, you know.
02:12You seem to be a beautiful person.
02:14Oh, I see.
02:16I hope he approves of me.
02:18To be sure he will.
02:19If he ever sees you.
02:21He's travelling abroad at the moment.
02:23And now, my dear, I'm sure you'd like to see the rest of Stormfield.
02:26Oh, yes, yes, I should.
02:28Come an old man.
02:29You know, when Mr. Rochester does visit the house, he's always come so unexpectedly.
02:36I have to be always prepared for him.
02:38So that the place is in apple pie order.
02:41Swept and polished.
02:42This way, my dear.
03:25Now, if I have the keys, we can go to the upper floor.
03:27Just a moment, Miss Eyre.
03:39Mrs. Fairfax.
03:40Mrs. Fairfax.
03:41Oh, Miss Eyre.
03:42Oh, that laugh.
03:42That horrible laugh.
03:44Oh, you can hear me?
03:44It's nothing, my dear, the servant.
03:46Grace Poole, I expect.
03:47It's damn it horrible.
03:48Inhuman.
03:50It is again.
03:52Well, you go down, my dear.
03:53I must speak to Grace.
03:55I'll show you the rest of the place another time.
04:10Grace.
04:14Too much noise, Grace.
04:16Remember instructions.
04:33Good morning, Miss Eyre.
04:35I am very glad to make your connaissance.
04:38Acquaintance.
04:40I am very glad to make your acquaintance.
04:42I am very glad to give you your lessons, Adele.
04:47Comment allez-vous, Adele?
04:49Je me porte bien, mademoiselle, et vous m'aime.
04:51Make her speak English, Miss Eyre.
04:53She can speak it very well when she sees it.
04:55I do not like to speak English.
04:57I cannot train it on the things I wish to say.
05:01And a very good thing, too, if you ask me.
05:03Make her work hard.
05:04She's been idle far too long.
05:05Come along, Adele.
05:07Let's see how much you know.
05:09Mademoiselle?
05:10Yes?
05:11What is your first name?
05:12James.
05:13Will you be staying here, mademoiselle?
05:15All the time?
05:16Yes, I shall stay here all the time.
05:19Have you been lonely?
05:21Monsieur Rochester.
05:23He brought me to England.
05:26He said I would come and live with him.
05:29But he has gone away again.
05:31And you've got me now, Adele.
05:33I shan't go away.
05:34We'll be friends, won't we?
05:36Oh, mademoiselle, I will work so hard for you.
05:38I will work so hard.
05:42Come along now.
05:43Time for lessons.
05:57Oh, Adele.
05:58Come here.
05:59Look.
06:00A picture of you.
06:01So is he.
06:02And in my best dress, too.
06:05I look so pretty.
06:07Stuff and nonsense.
06:08You look like an ordinary little girl, which is exactly what you are.
06:11Isn't she, Miss Eyre?
06:13Oh, look at Adele.
06:15Oh, thorn-cilled again.
06:17How lovely it looks in the autumn.
06:19Isn't Miss Eyre clever?
06:21Are you taking your sketchbook for this day?
06:24No, it's too cold to sit about for long.
06:26I'll just walk through the wood and that.
06:28Are you coming with me, Adele?
06:30Oh, Miss Eyre.
06:31Oh, I don't think she should, not with her cold.
06:34You go along while it's still fine.
06:36Don't stay out too late.
06:37I won't.
06:39Au revoir, Adele.
06:39I'll leave you after them, Adele.
06:42I mean, come back soon.
06:44Don't stay out too late.
06:50Bye-bye.
07:17Get out of the way!
07:26Are you hurt?
07:28Come here!
07:36Are you afraid of horses?
07:38No.
07:39Shall I bring it to you?
07:40No, wait a minute.
07:42Come on.
07:44Yeah, help me over here.
07:47If you'd managed to get out of the way sooner, I'd never have come off!
07:51You're in the woods right through, sir.
07:53I can't see why you have to jump at all.
07:57I haven't seen you before.
07:58Where are you from?
07:59Thornfield Hall, sir.
08:01Thornfield?
08:02Rochester's place?
08:02Yes, sir.
08:04You're not a servant?
08:06No, I'm the governess.
08:08Ah, of course I'd forgotten.
08:12What are you doing out in the middle of the afternoon?
08:15Huh?
08:18You mean it's none of my business?
08:22Shall I bring your horse to you, sir?
08:25Yes.
08:29And bring my whip!
08:32No, no, no, no, no!
08:33The chicken, don't you?
08:34Yes.
08:35No, no, no I'm not a farmer.
08:36No, no, no, no, yes, everyone's a dog.
08:41No, no, no.
08:43What?
08:43I'm being a farmer.
08:44This looks 10 years old.
08:46Yes, no.
08:46No, it's a dog.
08:46If the dog is on the side, he can't handle it.
08:49Yes, no!
08:53There's no dog at no walk.
08:58The dog is on the side.
08:59You're on the side of the road.
09:00In the side, he can't handle it.
09:54Come here, Miss Erd.
10:07Sit down.
10:11Have you no other dress than that, Miss Erd?
10:14I have one other, sir.
10:15Then why don't you wear it?
10:16It's my good dress.
10:17I keep it for important occasions.
10:19And you don't think the first time you meet your employer an important occasion?
10:22I didn't know you wear that, sir.
10:23Mr. Rochester says he has brought me a present.
10:26Have you present too, Miss Erd?
10:27Presence, that's all you ever ask me for.
10:30Did you expect a present, Miss Erd?
10:32You're a stranger to me, sir.
10:34There's no reason why you should give me a present.
10:39You've been here how long?
10:41Three months, sir.
10:42Adele shows great improvement.
10:44Where did you come from?
10:45Lowood.
10:46Isn't that a charity concern?
10:47Yes.
10:47How long were you there?
10:48Eight years.
10:50You must love life to have survived there so long.
10:52Off you go, Adele.
10:53I want to speak to Miss Erd.
11:00And Adele, look at my box tomorrow.
11:02Tomorrow, mind, not tonight.
11:04You may find your present.
11:05Oh, excuse me.
11:06Go to bed!
11:13Come over here, Miss Erd.
11:15I'll have a look at you.
11:24So that's where you've got that look of another world.
11:26At Lowood.
11:28How old are you?
11:30Now come, you're too young to be coy about your age.
11:32Eighteen, sir.
11:33What did you learn at Lowood?
11:34Can you play?
11:35A little.
11:36That's what every woman says.
11:37There is a piano.
11:38Go and play.
12:00That's enough.
12:05You're right, Miss Erd.
12:06You play a little.
12:10Adele's been telling me you were fond of sketching, is that, sir?
12:13Yes, sir.
12:13I suppose you'll say now that you draw a little.
12:21My book is here, sir.
12:23You may judge for yourself.
12:25Well, sit down.
12:26I hate people to stand over, man.
12:31You seem very fond of my property, Miss Erd.
12:33I think it's very beautiful, sir.
12:35You do.
12:36Oh, Dornfield has been in my family for generations.
12:42When I was your age, I used to think of it like that.
12:44A beautiful place, serene and timeless.
12:48When things change, a place one loves can become a place one hates.
12:52I can congratulate you, Miss Erd.
12:54Draw more than a little.
12:55One day you may even draw well.
12:57I wish you good night.
13:02Good night.
13:02Good night, sir.
13:16Good night.
13:17Good night.
13:21God.
13:22Yes, sir.
13:25peek.
13:26Oh, Mr. Rochester.
13:29Oui, oh, he is so good.
13:31I'm going to go and search him now,
13:33with me inside you.
13:34Oh, we mustn't disturb him, Adele.
13:36Please, please. I want him to see.
13:39Very well.
13:40Do I look beautiful?
13:43Ask Mr. Rochester.
13:52Monsieur, Monsieur, regardez.
13:56I didn't send for you, Miss Eyre.
13:57What is the matter?
13:58Adele wishes to show you her present, sir.
14:00Well, she's shown it to me. Now go.
14:02But, Miss Eyre...
14:03Go when I tell you!
14:07Not you, Miss Eyre. You, Miss Eyre.
14:15Sit down.
14:46I see I'm under scrutiny, Miss Eyre.
14:48Do you find me handsome?
14:49No, sir.
14:51I'm considered blunt, but you're better at it than I am.
14:53I see I'm under scrutiny, Miss Eyre.
14:53I think you're past, Miss Eyre.
14:54Why?
14:55Why should you say you think me handsome
14:57when you know that I'm not?
14:59Because I employ you?
15:00Because I pay you thirty pounds a year?
15:01Not at all.
15:02I shouldn't have spoken myself like that, sir.
15:04May interest me. I want to know more of them.
15:06Miss Eyre,
15:07when I turned Adele so abruptly out of the room just now,
15:10there was a look of puzzlement on your face.
15:11Or perhaps it was a look of disgust at my behavior.
15:13Why, Miss Eyre?
15:14You made it clear yesterday, sir,
15:16it was not my face to judge your actions.
15:18You think Adele my child, don't you?
15:20I don't know, sir.
15:21Neither do I.
15:26I was very much in love some years ago, Miss Eyre.
15:29Her name was Céline Barron.
15:31She danced with a parasopola.
15:34I believe I treated her well.
15:36One day I happened to call when I was not expected.
15:38I discovered I had a rival.
15:40We had a scene, and I parted with her forever.
15:43Some years later, she went off to Italy
15:45with some opera singer she'd died down.
15:48Left Adele, who had been born
15:50six months before our quarrel desperately.
15:52So you see,
15:54you are teaching the illegitimate daughter
15:56of a French opera girl.
16:00Do you want to leave?
16:01Do you want me to get another governess?
16:03No, sir.
16:04Adele is not answerable for her mother's faults,
16:06or yours.
16:08Don't prick at me, Miss Eyre.
16:11I like you better when you speak honestly.
16:13I suppose your lowward upbringing still clings to you.
16:15Why did you keep such company, sir?
16:18When we are desperately unhappy, Miss Eyre,
16:20we seek oblivion.
16:22It doesn't matter what company we find it in.
16:25Give me a model answer to that.
16:27I don't see why you should have been unhappy.
16:29You have so much.
16:30So much?
16:32I have nothing, nothing that matters.
16:34If you knew what a torment it wants to me to be here now.
16:38I hate Thornfield.
16:39I hate everything about it.
16:40Sorry.
16:44I'm sorry.
16:46I see that puzzled look again.
16:51And this time,
16:52it's something I can't explain.
16:55Without your duties to perform,
16:56I must be keeping you.
16:58You may leave, Miss Eyre.
17:02Yes, sir.
17:06Yes.
17:45You may leave, Miss Eyre.
18:15You may leave, Miss Eyre.
18:18You may leave, Miss Eyre.
18:39Who's there?
18:41Who's there?
18:50Who's there?
18:52Oh
19:39Wake up, sir! Wake up! Wake up, sir!
19:54Wake up, Mr. Rogers, sir! Wake up, sir!
20:23Wake up, sir! Wake up, sir!
20:30I think that's all right.
20:35Come on.
20:41Stay there. Don't move.
20:45But you...
20:49Grace! Grace!
20:53What in God's name have you done?
20:57The door won't be unlocked again.
21:06Now then, what happened?
21:08I had a laughter. A horrible laughter.
21:11Then I came out of my room. I saw the smoke.
21:13Did you see anything else?
21:14No, sir.
21:17You're cold, sir.
21:19Shall I ask Mrs. Fairfax to make you up another bed?
21:21No. No.
21:22No one must know of this.
21:24I sleep downstairs until morning.
21:26Say nothing to anyone.
21:27But the damage, sir!
21:27No, I say it was my fault.
21:28You know nothing.
21:30But...
21:30He won't, sir.
21:33Now go back to your room.
21:34It's quite safe now.
21:36Good night, sir.
21:38Jane Eyre!
21:40Mr. Rochester.
21:44You've saved my life.
21:56There, Adele.
21:57Don't be so stupid.
21:59Mr. Rochester won't be away for long.
22:01You always say that.
22:03And then he goes away for months and months.
22:05Well, this time he'll be back in two days with a party of guests.
22:09That'll make the house nice and lively for you, won't it?
22:12Now go and wash your face.
22:14Run along.
22:19Oh, good morning, Miss Eyre.
22:20Good morning.
22:21I'm afraid Adele's a little upset to be saying goodbye to Mr. Rochester.
22:24He's gone to the Englands.
22:26Will he be back tonight?
22:28Not if Miss Blanchingham happens to be there.
22:30Miss Blanchingham?
22:31She and Mr. Rochester have known each other for a long time.
22:34People say she's used several good offers because of him.
22:39What is she like?
22:40Oh, a most beautiful young woman.
22:42And quite surprisingly accomplished.
22:44I've never known Mr. Rochester praise anyone so much.
22:47But then, of course, she is very beautiful.
22:50You shall see that to yourself when he brings her here with the other guests
22:53for the house party tomorrow.
22:55Well, now I must go and see how the maids are getting on upstairs.
22:58You heard about Mr. Rochester's accident last night.
23:02What?
23:03Oh, oh, yes.
23:04Knocking over to the candle and setting the bed curtains alight.
23:06It might, of course, have clearly a fire.
23:12Come on.
23:12Come on.
23:13Come on.
23:19Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Thornfield.
23:22And most welcome of all.
23:25Be early.
23:27It was time you returned to Thornfield, Rochester.
23:30You've been away far too long.
23:31Indeed you have, Rochester.
23:32Yes, indeed.
23:33Yes, indeed.
23:33Because it's so nice to be here.
23:37She's beautiful, Miss Ingram.
23:39Is she not, mademoiselle?
23:40Yes, yes.
23:40As beautiful as my mamma.
23:42Yes, she not.
23:43Oh, that's right.
23:44Don't forget your duties opposed to the rest of us, Rochester.
23:48Shall we go down and meet them, mademoiselle?
23:53No, Adair.
23:54You, please.
23:56We aren't wanting them there.
23:58Ah, my baby.
24:28Ah, my baby.
