00:57Don't you touch that, Lorna, you'll strain yourself.
00:59Are you all right?
01:00Yeah.
01:01Oh, I've never seen so much stuff in all my life, I really haven't.
01:04Anyone would think that you were settling in for good.
01:06I'm not taking anything I shan't need.
01:09You'll be back in a couple of months.
01:10Oh, give him a chance, mate.
01:12But it's so silly, it's so impractical.
01:14Well, it's better than working in a stuffy office.
01:17I haven't worked in an office for months.
01:18I got the sack, remember?
01:20You did not get the sack.
01:22You resigned.
01:24There are plenty more offices.
01:25If there aren't, I've tried.
01:27Hello, Breeze.
01:28Hello, everyone.
01:29Hello, Mrs Harvey.
01:30She's going to get plenty of fresh air.
01:32She'll catch cold.
01:33And she'll get bronchitis.
01:35That old cottage is bound to be damp.
01:36Mr Jessop's arranged for someone to light a fire.
01:39Who's Mr Jessop?
01:40He's that terrible old farmer, I'll be bound.
01:42Actually, he's been very helpful.
01:44But the rent he's charging for that tiny cottage, it's outrageous!
01:47It's a burnished cottage with an acre of land.
01:49Now, now, now, my.
01:51That's enough.
01:54You'll ruin your hands, Lorna.
01:57All that digging and all that hoeing and all those lovely hands.
02:00Who ever heard of a herb farm?
02:02Have you ever heard of one before?
02:04I think you're a fool letting yourself be led on like this.
02:09I'm not being led on.
02:10It's my life and my decision.
02:13It's such a dreadful waste of money in these hard times.
02:16It's not going to cost very much.
02:18Anyway, it isn't my money.
02:19No, that's right.
02:20I blame your Miss Anthony.
02:21It was her idea.
02:22It was our idea.
02:23Well, one of these days she may be glad of those few pennies.
02:26And it's Anstie, not Anthony.
02:53Breeze Anstie.
02:54Who ever heard of anybody calling themselves Bees Anstie?
03:24My lord no more.
03:27My lord no more.
03:54Did your family say anything?
03:55Not really.
03:57They're worried about money.
03:59They always are.
04:00What about the idea?
04:02Don't you like the idea about the herb farm?
04:05I didn't understand it.
04:07Well, it is a bit special.
04:11Do you know, there's not one proper herb farm anywhere in the country.
04:15Not a single one.
04:17Not in that part of the world anyway.
04:19Not anywhere?
04:20No.
04:22It's funny.
04:24When I tell people my plans, they just give in.
04:29You know, it's a waste of time, I'll do.
04:35Oh, I'm tired.
04:37Don't worry, we're almost there.
04:39Oh, good.
04:43Is that right?
04:44Yes.
05:01Oh, my God.
05:14We're almost there.
05:19Lorne, I hope everything is all right, good luck.
05:25Please let me know if you need any help.
05:28Please, Jessup.
05:30But we don't, do we?
05:33Let's do everything ourselves, Lorne.
05:36Oh, smell this, Lorne. Isn't it marvellous?
05:42Perfection.
05:42Look at the sky.
05:44It's extraordinary blue.
05:46You know, this is how it should be.
05:51This is how people were meant to live.
06:31It's important to be at home.
06:31Can we take some light?
06:34It's a big one.
06:35I've got the sky.
06:35It's too good to be at home.
06:37I've got some light light.
06:40It's a big one.
07:09I'll see you next time.
07:11Which room do you want?
07:12Oh, I'm not particular.
07:25Oh, marvellous.
07:34This place is filthy.
07:36Never mind, we'll clean it tomorrow.
07:49After you, who could buy my sky of blue?
07:56After you, who could I love?
08:02After you, why should I take the time to try?
08:08Or who else could qualify after you?
08:15Hold my hand and swear, you'll never cease to care.
08:21Or without you there, what would I do?
08:25I could search years, but who else could change my tears into laughter after you?
08:38Oh!
08:50Brave New World.
08:52I couldn't finish that.
08:54Oh, and it's a wonderful book.
08:56You should try again.
08:58I can see I'm going to have to broaden your mind.
09:07My nanny used things like rigs and hoes could cost so much.
09:11Well, we must have imports.
09:12They're the main part of our capital expenditure.
09:14Yes, I know, but look at that.
09:19Twelve and six for a fork.
09:22And then there's the rent and the plants to buy.
09:25I've got enough for both of us.
09:28Oh, I'll get the plants, Lord.
09:30I know more about that.
09:31I suppose if we're careful,
09:33we could live in about, well, thirty shillings a week.
09:36We do have a total capital of three hundred pounds a year.
09:39Yes, I know.
09:40We ought to save at least seventy-five pounds and keep it in the bank.
09:44Lord, you do worry needlessly.
10:02When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound
10:05and time shall be no more.
10:08Bergamot.
10:09Monada didyma.
10:10Didyma.
10:11The plants grow about three foot high
10:12and are not particular as to soil.
10:15A long spell of dirt leaves them stunted
10:17because they're used to swamps.
10:19I think we should have about sixty of these.
10:21An annual shovel is raised from seed.
10:24Now we're going to need about twenty packets.
10:27Twenty, twenty-five.
10:30Shall we bother about chives?
10:32Oh, yes.
10:33Chives.
10:34Allium.
10:35Schoenoprasum.
10:36These plants are usually planted in groups of bulbs.
10:40Now I would have thought we'd probably need about five dozen.
10:56è«–.
10:57LÃ m...
11:00here's a roof for you.
11:03That's for remembrance.
11:08It's beautiful.
11:14It hasn't rained in ten days.
11:16Well, it's July. It often doesn't.
11:18Suppose there's a drought?
11:20Oh, my Lord. Ten days without rain isn't exactly a drought.
11:24I'm not saying it is. Honestly.
11:26I'm only trying to be realistic.
11:40Dear Lorna, it's over a week since we heard from you.
11:44Is anything wrong?
11:45I do hope you're keeping out of the sun during all this dreadfully hot weather.
11:49I remember how the heat used to make you so listless.
11:52The papers are saying this is a real drought, almost a national record.
11:57Daddy hasn't been at all well.
11:58He worries about you so much, and this brings on his headaches.
12:01Do right soon.
12:04Love from us both, darling.
12:05Ma'am.
12:26John!
12:28John!
12:33John!
12:35John!
12:36John!
12:43What's the matter?
12:44Oh, the pumps guy.
12:46Oh.
12:50Is there enough for a wash?
12:51Oh, there's hardly enough for a cup of tea.
12:56I've got an idea.
12:58What?
13:01It's over here at the bottom of the path.
13:04Oh, it'll be so good to wash all over again.
13:07There.
13:08Look at that.
13:09It's amazing we never found it before.
13:12Isn't it lovely?
13:13Lovely.
13:16Gosh.
13:17It must be a week since we had a proper bath.
13:22Well, I suppose we'd better take the plunge.
13:24With nothing on?
13:25Well, why ever not?
13:26Someone might see us.
13:28Here?
13:28People do wonder about.
13:30Oh.
13:30Well, I'm going in.
13:32That's why I brought the soap and towels.
13:39Oh.
13:41Oh, Lord.
13:42It's beautiful.
13:44It's so warm.
13:47Like silk.
13:52Oh.
13:53Oh, Lord.
13:58What's the matter?
14:01Nothing.
14:04I thought you said it was warm.
14:06Well, it is over here.
14:08Come over here.
14:13Why don't you swim?
14:14I'm not used to it yet.
14:22Hey, fetch me the soap.
14:25All right.
14:36Come on.
14:38Let me wash you.
14:39Wash my sins away.
14:41Hey, wash my back.
14:42All right.
14:46Oh.
14:47That's lovely.
14:48It's lovely.
14:56What are you staring at?
14:59Oh.
14:59Oh.
14:59Well, you're so big.
15:02I didn't realize you were so big.
15:04I like that.
15:05You mean fat.
15:06No, I don't.
15:07You look like a woman.
15:10Give me the soap.
15:11I wash you.
15:14Oh, wash me hard, Lord.
15:17I want to be really clean.
15:24Lovely.
15:30Come on out now, please.
15:32Oh, just one more swim.
15:34Oh, I do love swimming here.
15:38It's like silk.
15:41Come out.
15:42Come out and cover your shame.
15:58Hey, I feel wonderful.
16:00Yes.
16:00Really wonderful.
16:02This must be the most wonderful summer I've ever known.
16:06I'm a bit worried, though.
16:08Long.
16:08You are funny.
16:10A few days without rain isn't going to hurt us.
16:12I suppose it goes on and everything dies.
16:15They're spending far too much money.
16:18You are irritating sometimes.
16:22I don't mean to be.
16:23Yes, that's what makes it worse.
16:35I don't know what we'll do.
16:38This really is a drought.
16:42When did it last rain?
16:44Oh, ages ago.
16:49It's dead.
16:51Everything is dead.
16:54Oh, you!
16:59Breathe!
17:00Leave me alone!
17:07Help!
17:08Help!
17:09Help!
17:11Help!
17:13Oh, breathe.
17:15Don't cry.
17:18I'm sorry.
17:19It's just hopeless.
17:22Nothing's hopeless.
17:23It is hopeless.
17:24Nonsense.
17:25It is.
17:25We'll buy some more plants.
17:27We'll start again.
17:29Oh, you!
17:31Oh, Lorne, why did we do it?
17:33You know perfectly well.
17:34Why don't be silly.
17:35Oh, Lorne.
17:36We want it to be independent and self-sufficient.
17:39We want to live in a country and have some freedom.
17:42Well, we got all those things.
17:44Now, dry your eyes and don't be silly.
17:47We'll buy some more plants.
17:49We'll start again.
17:49We'll never go ahead.
17:51Please, please stay with me.
17:52On Wednesday.
17:55Hold me.
17:57I've got you.
17:58Hold me tighter.
18:16Now, about this letter of yours.
18:18I hope you didn't mind.
18:19Mind?
18:20Our writing and asking for your advice.
18:22Oh, good Lord, no.
18:23That's what we're here for.
18:25Country-wide marketing specializes in the distribution of what we call rural products.
18:30That means we're here to help people no matter how large their problem is.
18:34Or how small.
18:35Hmm?
18:35We've only got an acre.
18:37A home farm?
18:38Hmm.
18:38Oh, well.
18:39Full marks for originality.
18:42That is what we hoped.
18:44Damn.
18:44Good idea.
18:45An acre's all you needed initially.
18:47Well, we have had a patch of bad luck.
18:50We planted too early.
18:52And then there was the drought and quiet.
18:55We weren't exactly certain what to do.
18:57And then Lorne, Miss Harvey, saw your advertisement in a magazine.
19:01Jolly glad.
19:03Jolly glad you did.
19:06First of all, let me say this.
19:09There's no reason why a small herb farm shouldn't be a most successful enterprise.
19:14But it's not just a question of digging and planting.
19:16Aunt Milk?
19:17No, thank you.
19:18You've got to be properly organized in a dozen different ways.
19:23You'll have to employ packers when the time comes.
19:26How do you go about it?
19:28You'll have to buy boxes to pack the herbs in.
19:30What sort of boxes?
19:31What sizes?
19:32Who makes them?
19:32How much do they cost?
19:34Sugar?
19:35No, thank you.
19:36Remember, you've got to be businesslike if you want to run a business.
19:41We will try, Miss Wells.
19:42We will do our best.
19:44Yes, do.
19:46We're on to all sorts of markets here, and we can take all your stuff...
19:51...if it's good, on a commission basis.
19:53When shall you be ready for production, Miss Harvey?
19:55Production?
19:57Next year, we hope.
19:59Right.
20:01Up to date, what have you done?
20:03I mean, about organization.
20:05Nothing much.
20:06Hmm.
20:07Well, then you must start.
20:10Look, I think it might be a good idea if I came down to see you.
20:14In about two months' time.
20:16Let me know if that suits you.
20:18Drop me a card, yes or no, that'll be enough.
20:20I'm sure it'll be all right.
20:22Splendid.
20:22I'll send you a comprehensive selection of our pamphlets.
20:25Thank you very much.
20:27Not at all.
20:28You're not a good thing, you girls, if you work hard and come to me whenever you're stuck.
20:32But don't try to be elegant.
20:34You're amateurs, and you can't afford to be amateurs.
20:38Going straight back, are you?
20:39Well, no.
20:40As we'd driven so far, we thought we'd stay overnight.
20:43And have an evening out.
20:45Ha!
20:45Good idea.
20:49I really believe we've got something now.
20:52Something to work for.
20:54To look forward to.
20:55I know it.
20:56Two doubles and one single.
21:09Eight pence or a shilling?
21:11It is a celebration.
21:14Two shillings, please.
21:21Eight pence or a shilling?
21:22Eight pence.
21:23But she only threw a hat at you because you were the one man on board picking up boots.
21:27Shut up!
21:27Shut up!
21:27Shut up, damn you!
21:28Shut up, I tell you!
21:29Shut up!
21:34Dear, knowing you, I accept your verdict.
21:36You have made your choice, and I see the way of it.
21:39I don't know much about love, how long it lasts, or what the remedies are.
21:45But I love you, Emily, so much that I can't write anymore.
21:51Only blessings and prayers for you.
22:20Don't you dare say I told you, sir.
22:24She...
22:25Caught the train for Rangoon.
22:32But I can't make it out why she was...
22:38Um, you think that this has got a...
22:41Give it to me.
22:42What do you mean by hiding my letters?
23:04She's gone.
23:07She was a fraud.
23:10She thanks me for my company and says her father kept a cleaning shop in Berlin.
23:18The little swine.
23:21Yes!
23:22That's what she is!
23:24The swine!
23:25To treat you like that!
23:28Oh, I could!
23:29What a fool she's made of me!
23:32What a fool!
23:33Oh, Fred!
23:35Poor Fred!
23:35Oh, for God's sake, keep your pity!
23:39When I tell you again, if you say I told you, sir, I'll strangle you.
23:42I will.
23:42I swear I will.
23:47Wish I could strangle her.
23:50It wasn't a bad film, was it?
23:52Oh, Lord.
23:53It was pretty rubbishy.
23:54Well, perhaps it was a bit far-fetched.
23:56I thought the man in it was very good.
23:58You mean his acting?
24:00Well, he was very good-looking.
24:02And he looked the part.
24:04Hmm.
24:05Yes, I suppose he was.
24:15Oh, damn.
24:16I've forgotten my toothbrush.
24:18Do you mind if I use yours?
24:19No, of course not.
24:22Have you ever been in Love Land?
24:24Yes.
24:27Did it go on long?
24:28Two years.
24:31Did you?
24:34Did it ever come to anything?
24:36No.
24:36I mean...
24:37Did you...?
24:40Yes.
24:47When?
24:49Four years ago.
24:53Who wanted it most?
24:55We both did.
24:57We couldn't go on without it.
24:59Well, it wouldn't have meant anything.
25:01Pass in my nightie.
25:05Lord, what's it like?
25:06The loving part.
25:08The proper loving.
25:12Well, you must know.
25:13I...
25:14I can't describe it.
25:17Is it like an electric shock?
25:20No.
25:23Well, you take something from each other.
25:27And something in you is fulfilled.
25:31That doesn't make sense.
25:33It's not supposed to make sense.
25:40Does it change you physically?
25:42Yes, I suppose it must.
25:44You don't notice it till afterwards.
25:47Afterwards?
25:48Till you must do without it.
25:54What about you?
25:56No.
25:58I never really wanted to.
26:02That's funny.
26:04What's funny about that?
26:06I meant it's funny how little we know about each other.
26:09Well, what more do we need to know?
26:11Nothing.
26:16What happened to him?
26:17He went back to India.
26:19Is he a soldier?
26:20Yes.
26:21Well, army doctor.
26:26So he went off and left you?
26:28He had to go back.
26:30After all, I was only 23 and straight out of college.
26:33What difference does that make?
26:35Well, if it was going to make a difference, that'd be that.
26:39If not, come back and marry me.
26:42I think that's awful.
26:43To be so cold and calculating about it.
26:46I think it's awful.
26:48Who suggested making love?
26:50He did.
26:51He was older.
26:52Sounds a bit cheap of him.
27:01I'm sorry.
27:06Anyway.
27:08I'm glad it's all over.
27:10I never said it was all over.
27:14Night.
27:31It's a very violent road.
27:32I don't care.
27:33I know this.
27:33I'm just walking right.
27:33It's all over.
27:34I'm not a child.
27:35Any kind of thing.
27:36No, I don't care.
27:36It's all over.
27:46Why do you want to say it?
27:47Dearest mother and daddy, I'm so glad to hear that you're both keeping well.
27:52Everything is going splendidly here, and we're both beginning to feel really confident that we can make a go of
27:58things.
27:59Forgive me for writing so seldom, but the days pass far too quickly, and there's always tons to do.
28:04We never seem to finish.
28:06We're up very early in the morning, and we're usually working through until it's dark.
28:11Nevertheless, we're both enjoying our lives here very much.
28:14Take care of yourselves, and please don't worry about me.
28:18I'm very well and very happy.
28:20Write soon, your loving daughter, Lorna.
28:23What date is it?
28:25November the 8th.
28:28Can I have something?
28:30It's my birthday.
28:34Very happy returns.
28:54Here we are.
29:11The damp patch gets bigger by the hour.
29:15It's no wonder you're in.
29:16Oh, it's not that bad.
29:18You're exaggerated.
29:20No, I'm not.
29:21I'm almost running down the walls.
29:24You'll drown.
29:29I think you should move in with me, till we get Mr. Jessup to do something about it.
29:34Oh, I can't do that.
29:35You'll get my cold.
29:37You're silly.
29:38My bed's big enough for both of us.
29:44All right, Miss Anstey.
29:46Whatever you say, Miss Anstey.
29:52But tomorrow.
29:54I've been talking about you girls to an old friend of mine
29:57who runs a very high-class wholesale grocery business.
30:00Tip-top fellow in every way.
30:02And I'm pretty sure he'll want to take whatever you've got to sell.
30:04That'd be marvelous.
30:05Wonderful.
30:06I shall be seeing him again shortly, and I'll let you know what he decides.
30:09We've made lists of all the different herbs we're growing, and a rough estimate of quantity.
30:13I can fetch it.
30:22Yes.
30:23I think your cottage is charming, Miss Anstey.
30:26Quite delightful.
30:28I can't bear things to be ugly.
30:30I believe that everything in this world should be beautiful.
30:34Alas, it isn't.
30:36Then we must try to make it so.
30:41How would you describe yourself, Miss Anstey?
30:44As a romantic or an idealist?
30:48Well, both, in a way.
30:51If that's possible.
30:53Possible?
30:54But a little dangerous, I should have thought.
30:56Why?
30:57You don't want to clutter up your life with a lot of sticky romanticism.
31:01All sorts of heartbreaks and disappointments.
31:04My lawn makes sure that I keep my feet very firmly on the ground.
31:09I owe a lot to her.
31:11She keeps me down to earth.
31:13Nonsense.
31:14You weren't supposed to be listening.
31:16Don't take any notice of her, Miss Wills.
31:18She's the one with all the bright ideas.
31:20Well, I think it's a splendid partnership.
31:23Quite splendid.
31:24Are those the lists?
31:25Yes.
31:27Good.
31:27First class.
31:35Who do you love?
31:36Won't you tell me who?
31:38Who do you want to be kind and true?
31:41Who do you think thinks the world of you and loves you too?
31:47How do you like to be held like this?
31:51Who do you suppose would be nice to kiss?
31:54Who do you need to be near to make a fuss of you?
31:58Who do you think the world of you and what you do when you do?
32:16I don't think so. I'm tired of days. Listless.
32:21I think there's no air.
32:25It's just this humid weather, and you've been working too hard.
32:29Well, who cares? At least we've got something to work for.
32:37I meant what I said, you know.
32:40Meant what?
32:41To me the rules about owing everything to you.
32:43Oh, please.
32:45I do hope we hear from her. I'm sure we will.
32:48That man, the grocery man,
32:52do you really think he will buy our stuff?
32:56Stop worrying and go to sleep.
32:59Mind if I read a bit? No.
33:06Read out loud.
33:14Being your slave, what should I do but tend upon the hours and times of your desire?
33:21I have no precious time at all to spend, nor services to do till you require.
33:28Nor dare I chide the world without end hour, whilst I, my sovereign, watch the clock for you.
33:36Nor think the bitterness of absence sour when you have bid your servant once adieu.
33:43Nor dare I question with my jealous thought where you may be, or your affairs suppose.
33:50But like a sad slave, stay and think of naught, save where you are, how happy you make those.
34:00So true a fool is love, that in your will, though you do anything, he thinks no ill.
34:12All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small.
34:20Oh, it's always wise and what...
34:22Hey, it's Bill.
34:24What's he doing here at this time of the day?
34:27Telegram!
34:28Miss Wills!
34:29Oh, Lord, you must be Miss Wills!
34:37Oh, Harry Lawn!
34:46Well?
34:55It's from Vernon!
34:57Vernon?
34:59He's coming back!
35:02Vernon?
35:03I told you about him!
35:12Oh, please!
35:13Oh, please!
35:14He's coming home!
35:16The man from India?
35:21You never told me his name.
35:46Lorne?
35:50Lorne for goodness sake where are you?
35:52I thought it was your turn to cook.
35:55I'm up here.
35:56What do you want?
35:59What on earth are you doing?
36:14You've moved your things?
36:16Yes. The damp's almost gone.
36:22Are you going to get supper?
36:23I won't be long.
36:25Breeze?
36:26Yes?
36:27Vernon wants us to meet as soon as we can.
36:35You're using that lipstick like an India rubber.
36:38There's no need to dab it on like that you know.
36:42Here.
36:44Let me.
36:58There.
37:00That's much better.
37:01Oh, thanks.
37:03Whatever made you get this awful orange?
37:05Used to like it.
37:08It's not at all your colour, you know.
37:09I know.
37:10I wanted Ceres.
37:12I liked Flame.
37:14I always liked her.
37:18When are you going to meet him?
37:20I thought I'd ask him down for a few days.
37:22You don't mind, dear?
37:24Not at all.
37:36You mean, this is where you live?
37:40Yes.
37:41Do you like it?
37:42Yes, it's very quaint.
37:45Yes, it's very charming, I'm sure.
37:48Yes, it's great.
37:49I knew you'd like it.
37:51Oh, dear.
37:53Under now.
37:54When I first had intimation of your project, my dear,
37:59I had some notion that you'd taken a place of...
38:01What do we say?
38:03A place of size.
38:05I know it doesn't look very big, but you try working it.
38:08I thought you'd call it a farm.
38:09Yes.
38:10This is just a garden.
38:11Well, we call it a farm.
38:13It couldn't very well be bigger because of the forest.
38:16The forest?
38:19The forest!
38:20That's your forest, is it?
38:21Oh!
38:23Oh!
38:24Oh!
38:26Oh!
38:27Oh!
38:27Oh!
38:27Oh!
38:28Oh!

38:32Oh!

39:02it must have been very important. well it's not for me to say how important it is but I had
39:08business.
39:10that's so Elona? yes it is nice to have you here Vernon. isn't it? it was cozy the three of
39:17us.
39:18I can see you two have formed quite a partnership. yes. when was it you first bumped into each other?
39:25I wrote and told you. oh yes the Rudolf Steiner Hall wasn't it? it was McCauley was giving a talk.
39:30that's right I remember. and you got on like a house on fire. and had lunch the following day.
39:39may I have my coffee please? oh sorry Breeze. whose idea was it for lunch? whose idea?
39:47I like to know the details. thank you. I always like to know the details of how people meet.
39:54I think it was your idea wasn't it Breeze? was it? but those thought the food was rather poor.
40:01what they need some decent English herbs you said? yes. so the lunch and the herb farm were both your
40:07idea?
40:08yes. Breeze has been marvelous. none of this would have happened without her.
40:13hmm. we found this place within a week. how energetic. I was lucky. and she put down the money.
40:20she's been marvelous throughout the whole thing. you're obviously a person of some determination. Breeze.
40:37it's me again. I think I left my dressing down behind the door. come in.

48:44You'll never cease to care
48:47For without you there

48:56But who else could change my tears
49:00Into laughter after you?
49:06Though with joy I should be reeling
49:09That at last she came my way
49:12There's no further use concealing
49:15That I'm feeling far from gay
49:19For the rare allure about her
49:22Makes me all the plainer see
49:25How inane, how vain, how empty
49:29Life without her would be
49:36The End
49:37The End
49:40The End
49:48The End
49:54The End
