Short filmTranscript
00:00He's so committed, to the exclusion of all else.
00:19Some says his career will prosper through the Robin Hill house.
00:21Which I must always remember.
00:23And of course it means we can marry, but there's never a chance to even talk about a date.
00:30I have a plan.
00:32One day next week, we'll arrange for Baines to take us both to Robin Hill.
00:37You could see how the house is coming and I can see Phil, perhaps surprise him.
00:40I don't wish to go there.
00:41Why not?
00:43I'm sorry June, I simply don't.
00:48So I continue to wait.
00:52Does he come here much?
00:59Not very much.
01:03Not to talk about the house?
01:05I think sometimes with Soames.
01:10Then you don't see him?
01:12No.
01:15Why can't he call once in a while?
01:18I do feel for you June, but this time will pass.
01:23But of course it will pass.
01:26How trite you are.
01:28Are we quarrelling?
01:33I don't know why we should be.
01:34No.
01:36No, nor do I.
01:40I think I should be going.
01:48Graham!
01:51I've just been beastly to Irene.
01:53I'll send Baines with a note to make it up.
01:55Lunch perfect?
01:56Yes, sir.
01:57What was your row about with Irene?
02:01I think it was really about Phil, not her.
02:04Not attentive enough?
02:06Not his fault.
02:07Remarkable house, I hear.
02:10Word is you've picked a man of rare talent.
02:16Thank you, Doctor.
02:18This will do.
02:19Here.
02:21Whoa there.
02:22Whoa there, boy.
02:46OK, Dockwood.
02:48Walk on, boy.
02:49Walk on.
03:16I'm not interested in well-being goods.
03:18It has to be perfect in every detail.
03:21I want you to get on with it right away.
03:23Yes, Governor.
03:24Someone to see you.
03:37Well, what do you think?
03:42Seems solid enough.
03:48But you can feel the mood of it.
03:50These rooms will have space, lights.
03:54There's no sense of confinement.
03:57One's spirit can live.
04:00Which is exactly what she wants, isn't it?
04:02Believe me, it's what you will want when you see it.
04:06You find her artistic, don't you?
04:10Yes, I do.
04:13Here are the accounts.
04:20Well, I don't understand.
04:21It's now 9,200 pounds.
04:22That's 700 pounds more than we said.
04:25I told you a dozen times there'd be extras.
04:27Well, I assumed a 10-pound note.
04:28Can 700 pounds be called an extra?
04:31Can I tell you something, Forsyte?
04:34You're getting a house that isn't to be
04:36bettered in the county.
04:38But it seems you don't want to pay for it.
04:40You want a first-rate man for a fourth-rate fee,
04:42and that's exactly what you've got.
04:44I'm bound to hunt another stroke of work for you.
04:46When I agree a price, it's what I expect to pay.
04:48Come on.
05:05Well, go over the figures and see how the money's gone.
05:14You know, in the early evening light
05:18it looks even more beautiful.
05:26Yes.
05:48Good evening, Bilston.
05:49Good evening, Miss June.
05:50Mr. Bessinis here.
05:51He's in the garden.
05:52Oh, good.
05:53I'll just go through.
05:54Don't hurry, Mrs. Forsyte.
05:57You can see what it's going to look like.
05:59My own ideas are becoming bricks and mortar
06:01for the very first time.
06:03I'm so excited for you, Somes.
06:05I really am.
06:06Somes doesn't understand what I'm trying to do,
06:08but I know you will.
06:10Come down to the house on Sunday.
06:12Uncle Swithin is taking me to Richmond Park.
06:14Well, that's very near Robin Hill.
06:17Were you talking about the house?
06:20Yes.
06:21Yes, we were.
06:22I still haven't seen it.
06:24Shall we all go down on Sunday?
06:26Swithin is taking me for a drive on Sunday.
06:29You can throw him over.
06:31June, I'm not in the habit of throwing people over.
06:39Shall we go in to supper?
06:41Yes.
06:42Yes.
06:47Madam?
06:48Wasn't it wonderful today?
06:50It was the first day of summer.
06:52Will you serve the wine now, please?
06:53Madam?
06:54Yes.
06:58This is a little sautern I've picked out for us, Bessinia.
07:01I think you'll rather enjoy it.
07:03It's a particular favorite of mine.
07:05These lilies are wonderful.
07:07Yes.
07:08Yes, the scent is extraordinary.
07:10Charlotte looks good.
07:11How can you like the scent?
07:12Serve Mr. Bessinia next.
07:15Wilson, take out the lilies.
07:19No, let them stay.
07:23Wilson.
07:24Let them stay.
07:54Will you bring me some water, please, Wilson?
07:56Yes.
08:01There were those women in the park as I came through.
08:04What women?
08:05You know.
08:07There seem to be more and more of them these days.
08:09I don't think we need to talk about them now.
08:11Don't you?
08:14When should one talk of them?
08:16I can't see the necessity to talk of them at all.
08:18Well, someone should.
08:19Magistrates.
08:20I can't think of who else.
08:21Oh, round them up, I suppose, and lock them away.
08:24And do mention them at dinner.
08:32Sydney, have some brownie.
08:35You're drinking nothing, June.
08:37No.
08:54I think we should leave now.
08:59So soon?
09:00It's been most pleasant, thank you.
09:02Come, Phil.
09:03June, aren't you being rather rude?
09:04Then stay.
09:05I'll go alone.
09:06Please.
09:07Don't.
09:08Really, I must.
09:10Good night.
09:12Thank you for dinner.
09:14Excuse me.
09:19Good night.
09:21Good night.
09:23Good night.
09:26And good luck.
09:42You found me appalling, I suppose.
09:44Yes.
09:48It's just that I never see you.
09:51I know you're desperately busy, but...
09:53We were finally together and you only seemed...
09:58You seemed never to look at me.
10:02I'm sorry, my dear, if that's how it appeared.
10:05You hardly seemed to notice me.
10:08I was merely being polite.
10:15Phil.
10:18I want to say something to you.
10:21Don't give me a chance to be nice to you.
10:23You haven't for ages.
10:27I want to mean everything to you.
10:30And I want to do everything for you.
10:41You could if you took me to your rooms on Sunday.
10:48Perhaps another day.
10:50Not Sunday.
10:52Why not Sunday?
10:54I have an engagement.
10:56With whom?
10:58An engagement which will prevent my taking you to my rooms.
11:00Work.
11:04I'm sorry.
11:18Who are you writing to?
11:20Uncle Swithin.
11:22Why?
11:26Because I don't think I should go anywhere on Sunday.
11:28You're not putting him off, are you?
11:30I am, as a matter of fact.
11:34I'm sorry.
11:36I don't think I should go anywhere on Sunday.
11:38You're not putting him off, are you?
11:40I am, as a matter of fact.
11:44I'm sorry.
11:46I'm not.
11:50I think you should go.
11:54Does it really matter to you?
11:56He's my uncle and I happen to know
11:58he's rather looking forward to it.
12:00It's one wifely duty you could manage to fulfil.
12:10Very well.
12:13I must say
12:15I like your hat.
12:17And that frock
12:19fits you like a skin.
12:21Yes.
12:23Tight as a drum.
12:25Now
12:27are you still on for Richmond Park?
12:29A look at the deer
12:31and the chestnut trees?
12:33Richmond is close to Robin Hill, isn't it?
12:35Similar neck
12:37of the woods, my dear.
12:39Uncle Swithin?
12:43Would you be a dear and drive me to Robin Hill?
12:45I haven't yet seen the house, you see.
12:47Certainly.
12:49Certainly, my dear.
12:51Get on, sonny. Get on.
13:13Come on.
13:37Welcome.
13:39Welcome to Robin Hill.
13:41Good afternoon, sir.
13:43I'm so glad you could come.
13:45Good lord.
13:47Extraordinary.
13:49Come. Let me show you around.
13:51Handsome.
13:53You'll be wanting statues.
13:55Bust of a Roman god.
13:57Can't beat a Roman god.
14:01Ah.
14:03That's more like it.
14:05Granite columns.
14:07Excellent space for a billionaire's room.
14:10Oh, no. It's to be an open courtyard
14:12with a glass ceiling.
14:14Glass ceiling?
14:16People who look through?
14:18People on the roof, you mean.
14:22You take my advice, Irene.
14:24Get yourself a billiards table.
14:26I'll gladly play you
14:28a frame or two for a fiver,
14:30but you'll lose.
14:32Ah.
14:34There's a good view from here.
14:36Who needs to go down there
14:39for the view?
14:41Monarch of all he surveys.
14:43I don't think he's surveying much.
14:45He slept for the last two months.
14:47What do you think?
14:51I think it will be beautiful.
15:09Ah.
15:27Irene.
15:31You must know I love you.
15:39Ah.
15:55I don't believe Soames Forsyte
15:57cares for you except as a possession.
15:59I'm not thinking about Soames Forsyte.
16:09Irene.
16:15Uncle Swithin is waiting.
16:17He's asleep.
16:21As is June for you.
16:35You'll never make anything of that house, young fella.
16:37Too new-fangled.
16:39The only good thing
16:41is the wine cellar.
16:43You'll have room
16:45for some six
16:47or seven hundred dozen.
16:51A very pooty little cellar.
16:53Get on, sonny. Get on.
17:01Go on, now.
17:03Get on.
17:06On you go.
17:16Good morning, Mr. Forsyte.
17:18You seeing your young man today?
17:22You ask me that
17:24every day.
17:26Oh.
17:28Won't ask it again, then.
17:36Is he taking you
17:38to the ball?
17:42Of course.
17:44You will be seeing him again, then.
17:46Of course.
17:48You will be seeing him again, then.
18:10Ah!
18:12Who's that?
18:15I'll get it.
18:19Dad.
18:23Hey! Oh, dropped it.
18:25There you go.
18:27Right, all right.
18:29Ah!
18:31Johnny, come over here.
18:37Want some of the drink?
18:39No, thanks. No?
18:41Your wife seems well.
18:44She is well.
18:46Have you tried before?
18:48I can't say so much for June.
18:50No?
18:52Anything I say, she bites my head off.
18:56I'd like to punch
18:58the fella's head.
19:00Is this Bassini?
19:02He never sees her.
19:04When he does, she comes home crying her eyes out.
19:06Perhaps it's better
19:08if it should come to an end.
19:10Well...
19:12I dare say your sympathy's with him.
19:14Both of them.
19:16Has he fallen
19:18for some other woman?
19:20They say so.
19:22And I suppose they've told you
19:24who it is?
19:28Soames's wife.
19:30So Svetlana tells me.
19:32Oh.
19:34She and June
19:36were bosom friends.
19:38Oh, poor June.
19:41We need to know what his intentions are.
19:43I can't do it.
19:45I don't know.
19:47But...
19:49He goes to your club, doesn't he?
19:51Dad!
19:53What's the matter?
19:55Dad, it's not been many years
19:57since the family closed ranks against me
19:59for doing precisely, it seems,
20:01what Bassini is about to do.
20:03I'm sorry, Dad.
20:11And if my son has failings,
20:13could he not improve upon them
20:15with your help?
20:19It is not his failings.
20:21It is him.
20:28Are there not matters that do yourself,
20:30my daughter?
20:32It would be a matter of wishing to.
20:34When you speak together,
20:36for example...
20:38We don't speak to any consequence.
20:40He is, for the most part, silent
20:42and I find that agreeable.
20:44Yes, he's unlike James
20:46in that respect.
20:48James has always spoken
20:50rather more than he needed.
20:58To outward appearances
21:00sometimes it's difficult
21:03to see that
21:05Soames would seem
21:07to be a very good husband.
21:09You are not married to him.
21:15I'm sorry.
21:19Is it?
21:21Is it to do with a certain
21:23close area within marriage?
21:29It's not that of a man.
21:32I have always rather dreaded
21:34the occurrence.
21:36Though I have, on the whole,
21:38enjoyed its results,
21:40my children have afforded me
21:42much pleasure
21:44and have distracted me
21:46from the relentlessness
21:48of marriage.
21:52I wondered if the house
21:54in Robin Hill
21:56might not prove congenial
21:58in that respect.
22:02Forgive me, my dear,
22:06but you seem so
22:08cold.
22:10I know.
22:12I know I do
22:14and I'm not a cold person.
22:16I am not, Emily.
22:18I know I am not.
22:20This is not me sitting here.
22:22This is
22:24some
22:26wife.
22:32What can I do?
22:38I do not love him.
22:40I cannot love him.
22:44I do not want to love him.
22:50Sorry.
22:54Sorry.
22:56And you do not think the children
22:58No.
23:00Never?
23:04No.
23:14This will do, just here.
23:16Very good, sir. World it!
23:24Thank you, Doc. Good on with you.
23:26Well done, boy.
23:30Good morning, Bessinia.
23:32Are you taking a break?
23:34I'm giving you notice
23:36to terminate my employment
23:38as the house is almost finished.
23:40You undertook to decorate.
23:42We have a contract.
23:44You've never once come down
23:46without suggesting something
23:48that runs counter to my scheme.
23:50If I am to decorate,
23:52then I must have a free hand.
23:54I'd say you've had a free hand all along.
23:56I haven't been able to make a single suggestion
23:59Just keep it below £12,000, that's all.
24:01How am I expected to predict to the pound?
24:03If you go over by, say,
24:05£50 or so, there'll be no difficulty
24:07between us, and in those terms,
24:09you may have a free hand.
24:11Will you put it in writing?
24:13Yes, I will put it in writing.
24:15Very well. Drive on.
24:17Bessini!
24:19Bessini!
24:25Darkwood, back to London.
24:29Up the window!
24:31Up the window!
24:59Belle?
25:05Belle?
25:21Belle?
25:29Belle?
25:39Belle?
25:59Hasn't she eaten anything?
26:01I'm afraid not, sir.
26:07Ah.
26:09I was thinking
26:11if you still haven't heard
26:13from young...
26:15from young Bessini,
26:17maybe one of the answers
26:19to your question
26:21might be a good one.
26:23I'm afraid not, sir.
26:25I'm afraid not, sir.
26:27Maybe one of the odds could take you.
26:29I'm not going.
26:31Are you tired?
26:33I'm not well.
26:35Well, perhaps I should send for...
26:37I need to rest.
26:57I want you to take me.
26:59What?
27:01To the ball.
27:03My dear girl, I'm about to go to bed.
27:05I'm sorry, Gran,
27:07but I want to go.
27:09I'm all right now.
27:11No, dear, no, this is quite foolish.
27:13Then I shall go on my own.
27:15You can't.
27:17Don't be a silly girl.
27:19Parfitt!
27:21Parfitt!
27:23Parfitt!
27:26Parfitt, have the carriage ready.
27:30I thought you were unwell.
27:34Get me some hot water.
27:36I'll have to wash.
27:38Yes, sir.
27:40It's nearly 11.
27:56I've seen someone you know.
27:58I see we've got the buccaneer.
28:00So what do we all think?
28:02Is he sweet on Mrs. Forsyte?
28:04Oh, George, don't be so silly.
28:06Rumour is, she's interested in him.
28:08Well, why shouldn't she amuse herself?
28:12Soames is so tiring.
28:14Mr. Bessinney's rather sheep.
28:16But as to do anything, of course she wouldn't.
28:20Where is June?
28:22I don't know.
28:25Where is June?
28:33I'll see you later.
28:35Soames looks put out.
28:37Why's that?
28:39I don't know.
28:41He'll be jealous.
28:43He'll be right if he had some cause, eh?
28:47Please, you're holding me too close.
28:49Come on.
28:51It seems to me you like a bit of close work.
28:53He'll do it all to himself.
28:59I wouldn't drink drunk if I were you.
29:01Cousin Soames!
29:03It's not nice in front of the girls.
29:17Phil?
29:19There you are.
29:22Come back inside. They're wondering where you are.
29:24Darcy, please.
29:26Leave her alone.
29:28I say, what's this, a twist?
29:30I said leave her alone.
29:32Now look here, Mr. Barker.
29:34I saw the way you were dancing with her just now.
29:36Just leave her alone.
29:38It's defending her honour, eh?
29:40Isn't that another thing a husband should do?
29:42Get out of here.
29:44Just get out of here before I kill you!
29:46All right, steady on, my chap.
29:48Steady on.
29:52Why did you not bring June?
29:54I didn't want her.
29:56You're engaged to her, Mr. Bessinney.
29:58But I shan't marry her,
30:00Mrs. Forsyte.
30:05Then you should tell her.
30:07And I will.
30:11Why shan't you marry her?
30:15I don't know.
30:17I don't know.
30:19I don't know.
30:21Can't you see what I feel for you?
30:23Are you blind?
30:25I believe you feel the same way.
30:29I'm sure you do not love your husband.
30:33Do you?
30:37I loathe him.
30:39Then come to me.
30:41I am married.
30:43What does that matter?
30:45It matters.
30:47Do you love me?
30:50Do you love me?
30:54Please, don't ask that.
30:56Could you love me?
30:58Don't say June.
31:00Say no if that's what you mean.
31:05Then no.
31:09I do not love you.
31:17Phil?
31:20Phil?
31:28Don't make me say it.
31:42I should give an eye to your wife, old boy.
31:44What?
31:46Might see more than you bargained for.
32:20Phil?
32:22Phil?
32:24Phil?
32:26Phil?
32:28Phil?
32:30Phil?
32:32Phil?
32:34Phil?
32:36Phil?
32:38Phil?
32:40Phil?
32:42Phil?
32:44Phil?
32:46Phil?
32:48Phil?
32:50Phil?
32:52Phil?
32:54Phil?
32:56Phil?
32:58Phil?
33:00Phil?
33:02Phil?
33:04Phil?
33:06Phil?
33:08Phil?
33:10Phil?
33:12Phil?
33:14Phil?
33:17Phil?
33:37June?
33:41June?
33:47June?
33:49June?
33:51June?
33:53June?
33:55June?
33:57June?
33:59June?
34:01June?
34:03June?
34:05June?
34:07June?
34:09June?
34:11June?
34:13June?
34:15Will you let me go?
34:17What?
34:19You promised you would let me go
34:21if our marriage was not a success.
34:25Is it a success?
34:27Behave yourself and it would be.
34:33Will you let me go?
34:35Of course I won't.
34:39Why do you never look at me like you look at him?
34:42What is wrong with me?
34:50I can't believe you're made of stone.
34:56God, I'll drink a beating
34:58and bring you to your senses is what you need.
35:02No!
35:04No!
35:06Oh, I'm sorry.
35:08I'm sorry.
35:11Oh, I'm sorry.
35:13I'm truly sorry.
35:15Let go of me.
35:17Let go!
35:21Forgive me.
35:40Forgive me.
36:10Irene, unlock the door.
36:14Irene?
36:20Unlock the door, Irene.
36:40Let me in! Let me in!
36:42I demand you open this door!
36:46Will you?
36:58Irene?
37:02Unlock the door, Irene.
37:06Irene.
37:10Irene.
37:40Irene.
38:10Thank you, Mom.
39:04Good afternoon, Madam.
39:10Thank you, Wilson.
39:40I heard from Father that old Jolyon took June off to the Alps this morning.
40:00Recuperation from her recent disappointment.
40:02Did he go along and say goodbye?
40:04No.
40:06No, I rather thought not.
40:08Excuse me.
40:10Wilson tells me you've been out all day.
40:12Yes.
40:14Where did he go?
40:16Robin Hill.
40:18Why would he have gone there?
40:20The house is finished.
40:22Yes, I'm aware of that.
40:24And a house needs furnishing before one can live in it.
40:26I went to see what might suit.
40:32Does that mean you may be reconciled to living there?
40:38Wait.
40:52There.
40:58My mother says Florence isn't chanting at this time of the year.
41:04Would it not be refreshing to holiday there?
41:08You cannot leave now, surely?
41:10Why not?
41:12The house needs your attention.
41:14You've spent all this money.
41:16It wouldn't be prudent.
41:22Sales!
41:24It's much more imposing than I'd imagined.
41:28The country will give a new perspective.
41:30And it will prove, I think, that life does not begin and end in London.
41:36Come on, boys.
41:38Yes, we're counting the days to the end of the week.
41:40When the architect moves out, Lirene and I move in.
41:42How long is the walk from the station?
41:44You'll be in a carriage, I suppose.
41:46Just here, thank you, Dockwood.
41:48What will the train fare set you back, Mr. Barana?
41:50Oh, much less than you'd think.
41:52People forget about these things.
41:54Now, if you'll all just wait here.
41:56I did send word ahead, but, um,
41:58we don't want you tripping over buckets and the like.
42:00I thought it was finished.
42:02All but, all but.
42:04All but. Right here.
42:06He's like a child with a new toy.
42:08Ha-ha! Welcome.
42:10Welcome to Robin Hill.
42:12Mother, mind the steps.
42:14Are you pleased with your new home, Irene?
42:16It's a work of art.
42:18Soames has always had good taste.
42:20I'm quite envious, Mr. Bosinney.
42:22You look alarmed at the prospect, sir.
42:24She wouldn't last five minutes in the country.
42:26Emily, look at this.
42:28Inspired!
42:30Room for your entire art collection.
42:32Yes, and more besides.
42:34And the light!
42:36The best views from the Verona.
42:38Come and see.
42:40I should worry about the clothes.
42:42I should worry about the bills.
42:44Hot water pipes everywhere.
42:46On a good day, one can see right across to...
42:48I shouldn't mention that...
42:50They are entranced by it.
42:52Despite themselves.
42:54Exactly. And this is just the beginning.
42:56You're going to be the toast of every drawing room in town.
42:58Come away with me forever.
43:02Mr. Bosinney,
43:04won't you be my guide?
43:06Of course.
43:08Forgive me. Excuse me.
43:10Come through.
43:12I'm rather intrigued about this central part.
43:14You will not make the effort
43:16to leave him for my parents.
43:18I'm here, aren't I?
43:20Yes, why is that?
43:22The truth is you care nothing for this house.
43:24You couldn't be more wrong.
43:26So much light in the centre of the house.
43:28It's almost like a courtyard, if you like.
43:30Yes, an internal courtyard.
43:32Uncle Swithin suggested a billiard table.
43:34Something to be said for that.
43:36Had Soames requested a games room?
43:38He'd have built me a table out of ebony
43:40and had the pockets lined with gold.
43:42The Queen herself might request that to no avail.
43:44Gold stands for everything I despise in decoration.
43:46£12,400, Bosinney,
43:48against an agreed starting figure of eight.
43:50Just remind me
43:52how we arrived at that figure?
43:54I'm rather tired of that conversation.
43:56We revised that sum.
43:58Yes, three times.
44:00Usually after the fact.
44:02You confirmed it in writing.
44:04£12,000 with a leeway of up to £50
44:06for accidents and your fastidiousness.
44:08Oh, Soames.
44:10There's nothing accidental about £400.
44:12But there is stained glass instead of clear.
44:14There is ebony instead of pitch pine.
44:16Granite instead of sandstone.
44:18There is breach of contract.
44:20There is invention instead of imitation.
44:22Who's behest?
44:24It's my name on the deeds
44:26and mine for which the house will be remembered.
44:28Your name, sir, is as worthless as your word.
44:30Look, I'm here to design,
44:32not to listen to your insults.
44:34You've broken your contract.
44:36I have the right to recover my money.
44:38You have here a house which will be the envy of your friends
44:40and at a rate which will never be repeated.
44:42Now, good afternoon to you, sir.
44:46Don't walk away from me.
44:48I have said my piece.
44:50You could force my hand, if you dare.
44:52To do what?
44:56To resort to the law.
44:58Soames.
45:00It would cost you more to bring the case
45:02than you could ever hope to win.
45:04I am arguing about the principle.
45:06Principle?
45:08There isn't a single person in this room
45:10who believes that is your motive.
45:12Least of all yourself.
45:20Come.
45:38Three hundred and fifty pounds.
45:40It's a mere trifle. It's quite beneath your contempt.
45:42No!
45:44No, you are beneath my contempt
45:46if you persist with this when you know
45:48that's nothing. Phil.
45:50How long have you been saying you want him out of your life?
45:52This binds you together for months.
45:54I will not see that man make a fool of me.
45:58No.
46:00You are quite capable
46:02of doing it by yourself.
46:06Will it really get to court?
46:08Soames is adamant it will.
46:10Brush your best togs off. It will be a standing room only in the gallery.
46:12I doubt it.
46:14Quite the joey where your brother is concerned.
46:16Quit to a bloater.
46:18She'd be hanging off the grapevine.
46:20It's a dull contractual wrangle, Monty.
46:22It's not Norton versus Lord Melbourne.
46:24There have been wars fought over less.
46:26Less than the hand of a woman?
46:28No, dear, keep up.
46:30It was Bessinie's sunken bath that did it.
46:32It was a marble flower tub, Julie,
46:34amongst other things.
46:36It was a woman.
46:38A marble woman?
46:40Irene Forsyte.
46:42No.
46:46What's 350 to a man like Soames?
46:48He's marking the buccaneers' guard
46:50just as his will be prosecuted.
46:54We must have heard the whispers
46:56when you said they danced
46:58at Swithin's Ball.
47:00You thought she meant a waltz.
47:02But Soames is the perfect husband.
47:04I can't believe it.
47:06Oh, you want to. Both of you admit it.
47:08Oh, please. One can see how men might find
47:10any charming.
47:12Monty's always failed to see the attraction.
47:14But quiet.
47:16If anything, a shrinking violet.
47:18I rather fear
47:20she's been plucked.
47:28And I rather fear we're going to be late.
47:30Come, dear. Late?
47:32Goodbye. Bye, dear.
47:34We have another call this afternoon, the chum of Monty's.
47:36Goodbye, dear. Do forgive us.
47:40Goodbye, ladies.
47:44Freddie, they love all the tattle.
47:46Well, I don't.
47:50I wish Winifred would leave that man at home.
47:52Don't you?
47:54Implying that I enjoy his tittle-tattle.
47:56Enjoy it?
47:58I could barely understand it.
48:00The Queen's English is a foreign language to him.
48:02Mm.
48:06Whatever shall we say to Soames?
48:08How on earth should we say it?
48:10No, we shall simply pass it over.
48:12We might.
48:14But with the likes of Montague Doughty.
48:16Quite the joey, indeed.
48:20And what did the solicitor say?
48:22He told me exactly what I knew.
48:24I have a case. Every bit as strong as Soames.
48:26Now people will see him for what he is.
48:28He is a solicitor.
48:30The son of a solicitor.
48:32He knows how to construct a case.
48:34Oh, as does my own fellow.
48:36He's instructed Jobling and Boulder,
48:38one of the best in the field.
48:40And I might be intimidated if I didn't have Wright on my side.
48:44You do believe that, don't you?
48:46Of course I do, Phil.
48:48But money speaks,
48:50even in a court of law.
48:52I have money.
48:54Or will have.
48:56There's the House of Wilson, and there'll be more work after that.
48:58My reputation's growing.
49:02What then?
49:04What should I do?
49:06Not fight? Just flee?
49:08We could do that.
49:10We could not.
49:12I could set up in Liverpool or Glasgow or Paris if I wanted to.
49:14I'm a free man.
49:16Soames cannot stop me from working.
49:18He could try.
49:20If I were with you, he would try.
49:22I don't think you should leave.
49:26You've done nothing wrong.
49:34You've done nothing wrong.
50:04Welcome home.
50:06Welcome home, sir.
50:08Lovely weather you're having, Parfitt.
50:10Yes, sir. Pleasant journey, sir.
50:12Truth to tell, I need another holiday to recover from the holiday.
50:14Hello, Parfitt.
50:16Miss June. I see you have been busy.
50:18We took a detour to Paris.
50:20Gran indulged me with a little shopping.
50:22Tell me, how I lived so long without knowing the difference
50:24between the rich and the poor.
50:26Well, it's a long story, isn't it?
50:28Well, it's a long story, isn't it?
50:30Well, it's a long story, isn't it?
50:32How I lived so long without knowing the difference
50:34between Buccleuch and Chenille.
50:36Don't start all that again, Gran.
50:38So Miss June is returning home refreshed.
50:40Like a new woman, Parfitt.
50:46Give me some tea on the study, Parfitt.
50:48Right away, sir.
50:50The convention would be to close this off.
50:52A wall here, a door here.
50:54I propose a hinged partition.
50:56A wall here, a door here.
50:58A huge folding door, if you like.
51:00Privacy and intimacy when you need it.
51:02But the etched glass panels
51:04means you lose none of the light.
51:06This I like.
51:08But I am still unconvinced about the veranda.
51:10But I am still unconvinced about the veranda.
51:12You did something similar in the house of Robin Hill.
51:14You did something similar in the house of Robin Hill.
51:16Well, similar, not the same.
51:18I should like to see it for myself.
51:20Well, it's clearer on here.
51:22Constructed.
51:24I need a better sense of the proportions.
51:26I no longer have access.
51:28You can speak to the owner, surely.
51:30I'm in dispute with the owner.
51:32Small matter, soon to be resolved.
51:34But I can show you an example of this type of thing.
51:36And if you're agreeable,
51:38I can have contracts drawn up by the end of the week.
51:40What kind of dispute?
51:42Oh, it's nothing. A few hundred pounds.
51:44You are owed.
51:48You owe?
51:50He says.
51:52I wish I'd known of this earlier.
51:54It has no bearing on the job. You have my word.
51:56Really, Mr. Wilson,
51:58I do assure you it's nothing.
52:00I suggest you come back to me
52:02when the matter is resolved.
52:04Well, if it's characters you require,
52:06I can provide them.
52:08When you're in a position to proceed, come back to me.
52:10Good day.
52:16He thinks I'm a thief.
52:18He wants to commission you.
52:20After the court case,
52:22once he knows I can be trusted,
52:24any client I approach now will feel the same.
52:26If he'd only signed the contract,
52:28I'd have borrowed against it.
52:30I could have withstood a loss in court.
52:32You won't lose.
52:34But if I do, I lose everything.
52:36Not everything.
52:38Home, business. It would bankrupt me, Irene.
52:40Not everything.
52:42Here.
52:46My father's.
52:50I cannot take this.
52:52We have to take our lead from Soames.
52:54Play this purely as a legal matter.
52:56We shall act the dutiful wife
52:58and the wronged architect.
53:00They shall know nothing of our plans.
53:02Even a hint of scandal
53:04could turn the judge against you.
53:06We shall behave like hypocrites.
53:08We shall behave discreetly.
53:12Just a few more weeks.
53:14It will be worth it in the end.
53:16But you doted on your father.
53:18I am offering you the watch.
53:20Memories are not for sale.
53:48Moments are given,
53:50then gone.
53:52Come have this dance
53:54with me, darling.
53:56I'll hold you tight
53:58till the dawn.
54:00Let the night
54:02see how I love you.
54:04So the moon
54:06can tell the sun.
