00:00All our hopes depend on you now, darling.
00:10If you don't bring this off, we are ruined.
00:48To Lady Julia Monogram.
00:50Dearest Julia, I wonder that you have not called to see me or invited me since I have been in London.
00:56There is to be a small soiree here on Tuesday next.
01:00I say small, but large enough so that you need not speak to the Melmotts if you should not wish to.
01:12Dearest Julia, how I long to see you and all my real friends.
01:17Yours, as ever, Georgiana Longstaff.
01:21Lady Julia Monogram.
01:26Julia, dear, you came.
01:29I can't stop. Sir Damos doesn't even know I'm here.
01:33Who are all these dreadful people?
01:36They aren't all dreadful. Look, there's Lord Nidderdale.
01:40I can't bear money grubbing.
01:43Georgiana, you have to understand.
01:46If you stick with these...
01:52...Melmotts, we can't know you. Nobody can.
01:56You'd much better go back to the country.
02:00Oh, my God. Who's that dreadful-looking man leering at us over there?
02:04He's not so bad as all that.
02:06His name is Mr. Bregget. He's the head of a banking firm in the city.
02:10Darling, he looks like a Jew.
02:12Is that so very bad? The Prime Minister is a Jew.
02:16But one wouldn't have him in one's house.
02:18Oh, he's coming over.
02:20Georgiana, I do feel for you.
02:25But if you will let yourself down like this, you can't expect not to be dropped.
02:29Perhaps we'll see each other in the country. Goodbye.
02:36Would you excuse me?
02:38Good evening, Miss Longstaff.
02:40Mr. Bregget.
02:42Might I ask who that lady was?
02:44Her name is Lady Julia Monogram. She was my oldest friend.
02:48And she's upset you?
02:50Not at all.
02:51No, I think she has. And that distresses me.
02:55Would it help you at all to speak a bit?
03:00You are very kind. Thank you.
03:02Would it help you at all to speak a bit?
03:06You are very kind. Thank you. No.
03:09Would you excuse me?
03:32Quickly.
03:35Use these stairs. Come. I'll show you.
03:50He is not there.
03:52I say, over here.
03:54Oh, Felix, my love.
04:02You took a deuce long time about it.
04:04I had to go to Papa's horrible party and talk to Lord Nidderdale.
04:07Poor you. Good job I had this.
04:09Give it to me!
04:13What is your plan?
04:15Sorry, I don't follow. What plan?
04:17To run away, of course.
04:19Oh, Lord, well...
04:20We think it will be best to sail to New York from Liverpool.
04:23Who's we?
04:24The Donnelly.
04:26The Donnelly?
04:28Yes.
04:30The Donnelly.
04:32The Don is sort of everything.
04:34She will come with me. She will be my cousin.
04:36I will go as a French girl. You can be an American, should you like that.
04:39We will call you Mr Smith.
04:41I say, that's clever. That's clever.
04:43We must not travel together.
04:45We board separately.
04:47And the captain can marry us on board.
04:50They can do that, you know, the Don says.
04:52And then we will be together.
04:54Never apart again.
04:56Look here, Marie.
04:58A thing like this is going to need some ready cash.
05:00Now, should I get your papa to cash in my shares?
05:02See, the thing is, he might smell a rat.
05:04Oh, money is nothing.
05:08Papa keeps a great pile of cheques in his bookroom,
05:10made out to cash.
05:12A hundred pounds each. I can take one of those.
05:14I say, that's useful.
05:16That's useful.
05:18Might as well take two while you're there.
05:20So, it is settled.
05:22We will go on wednesday week.
05:25Really? As soon as that?
05:27I hadn't actually thought...
05:29But yes, we must.
05:31Papa is saying I must marry him later today, in two weeks.
05:33Look here, Marie. What if you're wrong about the money?
05:35Your own money, that is.
05:37And your governor doesn't come round.
05:39Where should we be then?
05:41Nothing venture, nothing have.
05:43Yes, but we might venture everything
05:45and end up with nothing, you know.
05:47You'd have me.
05:49Psst.
05:51Come quick.
05:53I think we must go now.
05:55Good night, my love.
05:57Marie!
05:59Wait!
06:11Got Breguet coming to see me this morning, Miss Longestaff.
06:13His firm is brokering a loan for us.
06:17Asked if you'd be at home.
06:19He's taken a fancy to you, that Breguet.
06:21I should snaffle him up, if I were you.
06:23He's well stuffed, this Breguet.
06:25He'd see you all right.
06:27Mr. Melmott, I wish you'd avoid
06:29such coarse expressions.
06:31Oh.
06:33I do beg your pardon.
06:41What shall I tell him, Miss Longestaff?
06:43Shall I set him up
06:45or shall I not?
06:47Well, shall I set him on?
06:49You may tell, Mr. Breguet,
06:51that I am at home
06:53and a pleasure.
07:03We must hurry.
07:07Wait at the door.
07:09All right.
07:11Wait at the door.
07:17What?
07:43What?
07:45What?
07:47I want to go with them.
07:55Qu'est-ce que c'est qu'il arrive?
07:59Dépêchez-vous.
08:01Merde.

10:13Qu'est-ce que c'est qu'il arrive?
10:15Bonjour, monsieur.
10:17Qu'est-ce que c'est qu'il arrive?
10:19Bonjour, monsieur.
10:21Can it be in some clear, cold place?
10:25The sound of the sea in our ears.
10:29We've been on such journeys, you and I.
10:33One last little trip to see the real sea.
10:39And then will you release me from my promise?
10:45Perhaps I shall.
10:50Where shall we go?
10:52How far away is Pince-Ess?
10:54Cromer is much nearer.
10:57Or Lowest Off,
10:59what your car used to take me there as a boy.
11:02That's a clear, cold place, if you like.
11:06Then Lowest Off it shall be.
11:10I should like to see the place where you were happy as a boy.
11:16I won't ask you to stay.
11:18Just to take me.
11:20I can return by myself.
11:24You couldn't refuse me that, could you?
11:35Montague, you say?
11:37Mr Paul Montague?
11:39Yes, I knew him at once.
11:41I'd seen him in the square ever so many times.
11:43I don't think he knew me this way as I hope not.
11:46What the devil was he doing in Islington?
11:48Same as you.
11:50Come see his old friend, Mrs Hurtle, the American lady.
11:53We should see her, Felix.
11:55She's a stunner, great big flash.
11:57They're going to be married, you know.
11:59Are they?
12:01Otherwise Mrs Picton won't let him upstairs.
12:03He goes upstairs, does he?
12:05Well, I'm damn Paul Montague.
12:08The thing is, what if he did know me and tells the squire
12:11and the squire comes after me, what am I to tell him?
12:14He'll mind his own business. Waiter, brand new water, quick about it.
12:17I don't think that'll quite do, Felix.
12:19And what am I to say to Aunt as well?
12:21I've said nothing all along just to oblige you.
12:24But I think you should have something to say to me.
12:27Oh, I mean it.
12:29Oh, look, if you bother me, I shall cut it, you know.
12:32Cut it?
12:33Yes, cut it.
12:35Why can't you wait till I'm ready to say something?
12:37I can't wait much longer.
12:39Where am I to go if Mrs Picton turns me out?
12:42Look, Ruby, I've told you, I'll find a little place for you.
12:44Now, I've got to go on a trip to New York.
12:46I'll be back in a month, then we'll see what's to be done, you know.
12:49I want to know whether you'll marry me or not.
12:52Marry you?
12:55No, I think not.
12:57I know a trick worth two of that.
12:59Well, you shan't see me ever again, then.
13:03Ruby, I meant not yet.
13:05Ruby! Oh, damn, blast it all.
13:30Yes, this seems in order.
13:33Mademoiselle?
13:34Mademoiselle Racine.
13:36This is my cousin, Madame de Tours.
13:40Well, forgive me, Mademoiselle, do you have any identification?
13:44Why should I need it?
13:46The check is made out to bearer.
13:50Oh, I see.
13:52I see.
13:54I see.
13:56It's made out to bearer.
14:02Yes, of course.
14:04Perhaps I should ask Mr Melmont to confirm the check by telegraph.
14:09It is rather a large sum.
14:11Not to Mr Melmont.
14:13And I think he would be very angry to be bothered by such a small matter.
14:18Of course.
14:23Would Mademoiselle like the money in banknotes?
14:25Notes of ten pounds.
14:29Two hundred and fifty pounds in ten-pound notes.
14:56Merci, Monsieur.
15:13There you are.
15:16Now, it is all arranged.
15:18The Don has got our tickets.
15:19We will leave on Wednesday for Liverpool.
15:21You can catch a train at seven o'clock.
15:25Right, seven o'clock. Why aren't I coming with you?
15:27It would be the act of a fool to let ourselves be seen together before the ball itself.
15:31Ah, right. That's just what I thought myself.
15:33I have bought all my wedding clothes, Felix.
15:35Oh, have you? Jolly good.
15:36They'll go ahead in my box, but I shall keep all my jewels with me.
15:40Now, here's the money for your ticket.
15:42And when we get to New York, we'll telegraph and write to Papa,
15:45and, of course, he'll make the best of it.
15:47Do you think he will? He's a pretty savage old bird.
15:49Yes, he will. He will have to.
15:51Now, remember, the Liverpool train, seven o'clock, and when they...
15:55The Liverpool train, seven o'clock, Wednesday.
16:01Don't be late.
16:08Oh, Felix, you're going through with it.
16:10Seeing as you were so set on it, Ma.
16:12Now, it's not fair to lay all the responsibility on me.
16:16You and that fellow Brown.
16:18Don't worry about that.
16:20Felix Carbery is man enough to take the consequences,
16:22and it's an affair of honour.

19:04Look.
19:10Roger.
19:16That lady I take.
19:18It is Mrs Hurtle.
19:20Yes.
19:22Yes, may I introduce her?
19:24No. I never thought you were without fault, Paul.
19:26But I am surprised to discover that you are a liar and a scum.
19:28But I am surprised to discover that you are a liar and a scum.
19:30Good day.
19:34Please, Roger. This isn't what you think it is.
19:49What is it? You tell me it's all over between you and
19:52that woman and a week later I find you here together.
19:54It is all over. I wrote to her asking her to release me.
19:58She came to England. She sent for me.
20:02She begged me not to desert her in her loneliness. What was I to do?
20:05So you intend to marry her, after all? No, do you understand? I am trying to separate
20:09myself from her. Honourably. You go about it in a very strange way, bringing
20:13her to a seaside hotel as if she were a woman. Is she no regard for her character? Have you?
20:22Perhaps these things don't matter any more. What do I know about the way people live now?
20:30Roger, I can't simply abandon her until she accepts that it is over between us.
20:34And meanwhile, you offer yourself as a lover to a pure, innocent girl like Hedda Carberry.
20:38Have you told Hedda about this woman and your relations with her?
20:42No. No, I thought not. Do you think she'll be happy to be dragged
20:48into this mess that you have made for yourself? You think so little of me.
20:57Are you so proud of your own dealings with Hedda?
21:01What do you mean by that? You think of her and speak of her as a child,
21:07Roger. All your intercourse with her has been as a grown man with a child, and now you offer
21:13yourself to her as a lover. How could you regard your advances to her with anything
21:20but embarrassment and disgust? That's what I mean.
21:27I don't see how our friendship can survive this, Paul.
21:50I don't see how our friendship can survive this, Paul.
