00:00Daddy Long Legs
00:07Judy! Judy!
00:12Yes, ma'am.
00:14Stop doing whatever you are doing and check the girls' hands and dresses.
00:18Everyone has to look perfect in front of the council members.
00:21Yes, ma'am.
00:23Hello, my name is Judy. I live in this orphanage.
00:28Today, the council members who sponsor our orphanage will visit us.
00:33We are very busy cleaning and tidying the girls.
00:36No rest for me. It's a lot of work.
00:42The council members just left, but the principal is calling me to her office.
00:47What did I do wrong?
00:51Oh, one of them is still here.
00:55What a tall shadow. He must be so tall.
01:01I have to go, I suppose, and face the scary sponsor.
01:05Did you see the man who just left?
01:07Fortunately not. Only from behind.
01:10He is our wealthiest sponsor.
01:12He got interested in your essay about melancholy Wednesdays.
01:16Especially because today is Wednesday.
01:19Oh, well...
01:21I find this essay ridiculous and embarrassing for the orphanage.
01:25But he liked it and proposed to give you a false college scholarship.
01:30Just because of this piece of preposterous writing.
01:33Isn't that preposterous, don't you think?
01:35College? For me?
01:37That tall ugly man thinks that I can become a writer
01:41and gave me a college scholarship and living expenses coverage.
01:46Unbelievable!
01:48All I have to do is write him a thank you letter once a month.
01:52I'm so happy. I believe I can fly.
01:57This is the girl's dormitory.
01:59I'm writing the first letter to my benefactor.
02:02I do not know anything about him.
02:04His name is John Smith, which cannot be real.
02:07All I know is that he is very tall.
02:10I've decided to call him Daddy Long Legs.
02:15Judy!
02:17I wanted to see where Sally was going.
02:20Of course.
02:22Sally and Julia are my new college friends.
02:25Sally is very laid back and friendly.
02:27Julia is a little stuck up, but it's not her fault.
02:30She's from a rich family.
02:32I am already homesick.
02:35What about you?
02:37I'm fine here.
02:39Is that a letter to family?
02:41In a way.
02:44I did not want my new friends to know that I grew up in an orphanage.
02:48Miss Judy, here's a parcel for you.
02:51Really? From whom?
02:53It's from Daddy Long Legs! How nice!
02:57I told him that I had the flu, and he sent me a little churro present.
03:02I did not even think that he read my letters.
03:05I was so excited that I sent him another letter right away.
03:11Please meet my uncle, Mr. Jervis.
03:14Come on, say hi!
03:16Nice to meet you.
03:18I am Julia's uncle, and have come to see the college.
03:21Unfortunately, I have class right now.
03:25Would you please show my uncle around the building, Judy?
03:28It will be my pleasure.
03:31The pleasure is all mine, really.
03:34I gave Mr. Jervis a tour around the campus.
03:38It seems that he enjoyed the tour as he kept smiling.
03:42I felt very easy with him, like I've known him my whole life.
03:47We had a heated discussion on Gothic literature over our afternoon tea.
03:52It made my heart flutter for no reason.
03:57Look! Judy has been selected for the short story contest!
04:02Wow!
04:03Oh, how exciting!
04:06I am happy for you, Judy.
04:08By the way, my uncle wants to invite both of you to New York.
04:12You're talking about Mr. Jervis?
04:14Yes, he said he would book a hotel room for you.
04:18He also bought tickets for the new production of Hamlet.
04:21He is a very generous man, isn't he?
04:26I'm over excited.
04:28I've never been to New York, and I've never been to a real theatrical play before.
04:33The world is a happy place.
04:35I should write to Daddy Long Legs all about it.
04:40We are in New York. What can be more thrilling?
04:43I finally saw my first play.
04:45I cried through the whole last act.
04:47Mr. Jervis was very kind and understanding.
04:52I will never be able to thank you enough.
04:55Yes, thank you for everything.
04:58I enjoyed our time together and wish you a safe trip.
05:03Judy, now it's my turn to invite you.
05:05We will go to our vacation house, ride a canoe.
05:08You will meet Jimmy's friends.
05:10We'll have the best time there.
05:14Oh, thank you. It sounds wonderful.
05:17Jimmy is Sally's brother.
05:19He's a very nice young man.
05:21I met him before when I visited Sally's family for the first time.
05:25I wrote Daddy Long Legs and told him I'm going to visit Sally's family again.
05:30I'm staying at a farm belonging to a friend of Daddy Long Legs.
05:34I received a letter from his secretary telling me to reject Sally's invitation
05:38and come to the farm instead.
05:40I tried to ask for permission again, but it didn't work.
05:43Sally has written to tell me what an exciting time she's having at her vacation home.
05:49Oh, I have no one to talk to here.
05:51Miss Judy! Miss Judy!
05:54I have a letter for you.
05:56Oh, isn't this great?
05:58You should open your letter quickly.
06:00Oh, Mr. Jervis!
06:03He told me that he spent his childhood on this farm.
06:06I'm so happy to see him and talk to him again.
06:12We made our way down from the mountains and headed for the farm.
06:19Oh, be careful!
06:21Thank you. Thank you.
06:25He caught my wrist just in time and didn't let me fall.
06:30We went riding through the forest together
06:33and then laid out a picnic in the shade of an old oak tree.
06:40Mr. Jervis and I had a wonderful time together,
06:43but I had to come back to college.
06:45Today's the college's anniversary, and there'll be a dance to celebrate.
06:49It'll be my first fall, and I invited Jimmy.
06:51Thank you for asking me to come, Judy.
06:53I'm sorry I only danced with you twice.
06:55There were so many people here.
06:59It's more exciting to dance with several different partners, isn't it?
07:02Well, I feel a bit bashful.
07:09I really enjoyed the party, Judy.
07:11Would you like to visit my house next time and camp out?
07:15Oh, that sounds wonderful!
07:17But first, will you go with me to the university dance next spring, Judy?
07:23Oh, I would love to!
07:25Judy, I think Jimmy's interested in you.
07:32Mr. Jervis came to visit our college again, but the timing was very unfortunate.
07:37Hello.
07:39Oh, Uncle, why didn't you write to tell me?
07:41Judy and I are just off to Princeton University right now.
07:46I'm so sorry, Mr. Jervis.
07:48Princeton? To visit Jimmy?
07:51I won't keep you then. I'll see you later.
07:54I'm sorry.
07:57I felt very awkward.
07:59Judy, have you noticed how often Mr. Jervis comes to visit now?
08:03I suppose he does.
08:05I have a little confession to make.
08:09Tell me.
08:10Mr. Jervis and I have been writing to each other since last winter.
08:14I haven't told Julie yet.
08:17So Jimmy has a rival now?
08:22I am a senior now, and I'm writing for a magazine.
08:26I write to Daddy Longlegs regularly.
08:29The novel I submitted to the competition has been rejected,
08:32although they have praised my writing skills and have encouraged me to keep going.
08:36I had hoped to give Daddy Longlegs a nice surprise before graduation.
08:40He must be disappointed, too.
08:44Congratulations, Judy.
08:47Congratulations?
08:49Thank you both, but what about...
08:55Mr. Smith apologizes that he cannot be here today.
08:59He sent you these roses to congratulate you, Miss Judy.
09:07What's wrong, Jimmy?
09:10What's wrong, Judy? What's wrong?
09:17I'm at Rock Willow Farm.
09:20Mr. Jervis is here, too, and he says he has something important to say to me.
09:25I wonder what it is.
09:27Judy...
09:30I'm listening, Mr. Jervis.
09:33Would you consider becoming my wife?
09:37Mr. Jervis, I don't think I can.
09:43Do you not like me?
09:45No, Mr. Jervis, it's not that.
09:49Please, Judy, I can make you happy.
09:52We are such good friends.
09:55And I know...
09:58I wish I could accept, but I...
10:02Can't you just tell me why?
10:05Can't you just tell me why?
10:08What's wrong?
10:10It isn't you.
10:12Is it because of Jimmy, then?
10:15I understand. Forgive me, Judy.
10:20I had to refuse him.
10:23I do love Mr. Jervis very much,
10:26but an orphan has no right to marry someone like him.
10:30I couldn't make myself tell him the truth,
10:33and he left the next day without saying goodbye.
10:40I will finally have the chance to meet Daddy Longlegs.
10:44Unfortunately, he is very ill.
10:46Mr. Jervis is also ill with pneumonia.
10:49I'm very worried about him.
10:53Excuse me!
10:56Miss Judy's here, sir.
11:00Come in, Judy. Are you surprised?
11:04Did you really never guess that I was Daddy Longlegs all along?
11:08Didn't you think of it?
11:10Mr. Jervis, of course!
11:12I should have seen it sooner.
11:15Oh, how could I have been such a simpleton?
11:18Judy, I know why you turned me down.
11:22You said in your letter that it was because you didn't want to admit you were an orphan.
11:26Oh, Mr. Jervis!
11:30My dearest Daddy Longlegs, a.k.a. Mr. Jervis,
11:35I am very happy and truly in love.
11:42Judy! Judy!
11:44Yes, ma'am!
11:47Tell me, when do I get to meet your charming Daddy Longlegs?
11:52Well...
