(church bell ringing) |
00:01:50 |
- Huh! |
00:01:52 |
(tinkling) |
00:01:53 |
- Miss Angelica! |
00:02:00 |
Come along! Quickly now. |
00:02:04 |
Now remember, |
00:02:06 |
finish your studies. |
00:02:07 |
Come on, in you go. |
00:02:11 |
(horses neighing) |
00:02:33 |
Nice clear voices, please. |
00:02:35 |
(knocking) |
00:02:39 |
Well, well, Miss Deverell returns. |
00:02:41 |
I hope this time |
00:02:42 |
you have a better excuse |
00:02:45 |
- I've been sick, Miss Dawson. |
00:02:47 |
- And being sick has prevented |
00:02:52 |
- No. I've done it. |
00:02:54 |
- Then perhaps you'd care |
00:02:56 |
- Of course I will. |
00:02:59 |
- Shh, shh, shh...! |
00:03:05 |
(girl coughing) |
00:03:08 |
- "In the depths of the forest, |
00:03:10 |
"sheltered from the four winds |
00:03:13 |
"by ancient oaks |
00:03:14 |
"whose leaves in summertime |
00:03:18 |
"stands, stark against the vast |

00:03:34 |
- You obviously read |
00:03:38 |
- No, I never read. |
00:03:40 |
- You're quite sure you haven't |
00:03:43 |
or Miss Corelli? |
00:03:44 |
- Books don't interest me. |
00:03:46 |
- So what do you do |
00:03:49 |
- I play the harp, mostly. |
00:03:50 |
(class laughing) |
00:03:52 |
- You'll get no marks |
00:03:55 |
Your homework |
00:03:57 |
and unless I'm mistaken, |
00:03:59 |
you do not live in a great house |
00:04:03 |
but over your mother's |
00:04:05 |
(class laughing) |
00:04:13 |
And now the next one. |
00:04:15 |
Miss Brown, I think. |
00:04:39 |
- Angel! |
00:04:41 |
Uh, I'm so sorry, |
00:04:42 |
Robert, would you take over |
00:04:47 |
I want a word with you, |
00:04:49 |
- What is it now? |
00:04:51 |
How dare you say those things |
00:04:53 |
"Not my real father"? |
00:04:56 |
How d'you think this makes me |
00:05:00 |
- Who cares |
00:05:02 |
- We'd have nothing today |
00:05:05 |
this business. |
00:05:06 |
- What I understand |
00:05:08 |
the name of Deverell will shine |
00:05:11 |
- That's enough! Your lies |
00:05:13 |
(laughing) |
00:05:16 |
"Grocer found dead - |
00:05:17 |
suicide suspected as mother |
00:05:22 |
How dare you hit me!? |
00:05:24 |
- I'm sorry, but I'm sick of it. |
00:06:03 |
- "In 1885, |
00:06:05 |
"into one of the oldest |
00:06:09 |
"in all England... |
00:06:12 |
"... was born a lively |
00:06:15 |
"who, in later years, |
00:06:18 |
"at the pinnacle of her glory |
00:06:21 |
"would be known to the world |
00:06:24 |
as Lady Irania." |
00:06:35 |
- Angel, your dinner's ready. |
00:06:40 |
You're still angry with me? |
00:06:42 |
- Leave me alone. |
00:06:52 |
- Madam says she's looking |
00:06:55 |
Miss Angelica. |
00:06:57 |
I'm wondering |
00:07:01 |
She's always dreamed of going |
00:07:04 |
- Why, Lottie... |
00:07:06 |
that would be |
00:07:09 |
- And that way, |
00:07:11 |
people won't think |
00:07:13 |
which could be bad |
00:07:15 |
- Angel, |
00:07:17 |
sweetheart, your aunt's got |
00:07:19 |
- I shall never go |
00:07:22 |
- Really? |
00:07:24 |
Because school told me |
00:07:27 |
all about your little visits. |
00:07:29 |
- Never like that! |
00:07:30 |
- Never like you, Aunt Lottie: |
00:07:33 |
serving other people. |
00:07:34 |
- Serving other people's |
00:07:37 |
We're all servants of God. |
00:07:39 |
- Well, you won't make me |
00:07:41 |
- Of course, I was forgetting. |
00:07:43 |
Humility and selfishness |
00:07:45 |
count for nothing in this world! |
00:07:46 |
- Calm down, Lottie. And, Angel, |
00:07:49 |
(laughing) |
00:07:50 |
She's only trying |
00:07:52 |
There's no reason to insult her. |
00:07:53 |
- I don't want her apologies, |
00:07:55 |
She can be out on the streets |
00:07:59 |
- I am starving, |
00:08:00 |
as it happens. |
00:08:02 |
some tea and toast, |
00:08:03 |
assuming dear Aunt Lottie |
00:08:04 |
has left us any. |
00:08:08 |
- How dare you talk like that! |
00:08:09 |
- Please, Lottie, |
00:08:11 |
- Exactly! Both of you |
00:08:13 |
so I can concentrate |
00:08:23 |
- Coward... |
00:08:25 |
(panting) |
00:08:28 |
I love thee... |
00:08:29 |
(panting) |
00:08:31 |
I love thee |
00:08:33 |
and now you wouldn't... |
00:08:58 |
... she loved... |
00:09:01 |
his soul... |
00:09:02 |
as she looked... |
00:09:06 |
into the eyes |
00:09:10 |
of her lover... |
00:09:12 |
(panting) |
00:09:14 |
... and call... |
00:09:16 |
and call... |
00:09:19 |
too fast... |
00:09:26 |
... and wept... |
00:09:29 |
with desperation. |
00:09:34 |
(exhaling heavily) |
00:09:35 |
The... End. |
00:09:41 |
(sighing) |
00:10:23 |
- Hmm... |
00:10:25 |
Nothing wrong with your heart. |
00:10:26 |
Nothing wrong with you at all, |
00:10:29 |
- Are you sure? |
00:10:30 |
- Why don't you want |
00:10:32 |
Problems with your lessons? |
00:10:34 |
- No. |
00:10:35 |
- Your friends? |
00:10:39 |
I've written a novel. |
00:10:40 |
- A novel? |
00:10:42 |
Well, that's no reason |
00:10:45 |
- I'm waiting to hear |
00:10:47 |
- You do realize |
00:10:49 |
are very busy people. |
00:10:50 |
- Oh, yes - but I've already had |
00:10:52 |
- And? |
00:10:54 |
- Well, they're still |
00:10:57 |
But they're all |
00:10:59 |
- Well, I'm sure |
00:11:01 |
but in the meantime, |
00:11:02 |
don't you go |
00:11:04 |
You must go back to school - |
00:11:24 |
(knocking) |
00:11:30 |
There's a letter for you. |
00:11:33 |
- Who's it from? |
00:11:35 |
- How do I know? |
00:11:36 |
It's from London. |
00:11:45 |
"Dear Miss Deverell, |
00:11:46 |
"it gives me great pleasure |
00:11:49 |
"the company... Lady Irania... |
00:11:51 |
suitable for publication." |
00:11:53 |
Oh! |
00:11:55 |
- A publisher wants to meet me. |
00:11:57 |
- Whatever for? |
00:11:59 |
- To publish my book, Mummy! |
00:12:01 |
I've done it! |
00:12:04 |
I'm going to be a famous writer! |
00:12:13 |
(continues reading letter |
00:12:15 |
"... market |
00:12:18 |
"... depending, of course, |
00:12:19 |
on the success |
00:12:20 |
we would be happy |
00:12:22 |
(continues reading: inaudible) |
00:12:26 |
- Mr. Gilbright |
00:12:35 |
- I know I'm late - I got lost |
00:12:38 |
- Miss Deverell. Theo Gilbright. |
00:12:46 |
It must be your first time |
00:12:49 |
- Yes. |
00:12:52 |
- I have to say, |
00:12:54 |
I was really expecting |
00:12:57 |
- You mean now you've seen me, |
00:12:58 |
you won't publish my book? |
00:13:01 |
Your age |
00:13:03 |
Although I do have to say |
00:13:05 |
that the style |
00:13:07 |
of your novel |
00:13:09 |
Some of us thought |
00:13:10 |
"old lady in rural retreat," |
00:13:12 |
others were more inclined |
00:13:15 |
in his fifties." |
00:13:18 |
- Do I look like a man? |
00:13:21 |
- No, it's just that, uh |
00:13:24 |
we get a lot of submissions |
00:13:27 |
- Well, mine wasn't. |
00:13:30 |
I'm very proud of my book. |
00:13:35 |
And do you think |
00:13:37 |
- Oh, yes! I can let you have it |
00:13:40 |
- Oh! And what will |
00:13:43 |
- It's about an actress. |
00:13:45 |
- Are you interested |
00:13:47 |
- Not really. |
00:13:49 |
I've never been. |
00:13:51 |
- Well, I imagine |
00:13:53 |
- No. I don't have the time. |
00:13:56 |
I prefer writing. |
00:13:57 |
The minute I start, |
00:13:59 |
- But you must at least have |
00:14:01 |
- I quite like Shakespeare. |
00:14:03 |
Except when |
00:14:09 |
- Miss Deverell, |
00:14:10 |
I personally find |
00:14:13 |
... style totally compelling. |
00:14:15 |
And I'm sure |
00:14:18 |
Which is why - |
00:14:20 |
as I wrote to you - |
00:14:21 |
we'd be delighted |
00:14:22 |
Given one or two |
00:14:27 |
- What adjustments? |
00:14:31 |
- Well, for example, chapter nineteen: |
00:14:33 |
your - ahem - description of childbirth |
00:14:36 |
is a little on the shocking side. |
00:14:39 |
I'm not sure the "pints of blood" passage |
00:14:42 |
is strictly necessary. |
00:14:43 |
- Then you clearly don't know |
00:14:46 |
- No, but I am a father, |
00:14:48 |
and I can assure you childbirth |
00:14:51 |
- That's because you're not the one bleeding. |
00:14:57 |
- Now, chapter twenty-five. |
00:15:00 |
Lady Irania's dinner party. |
00:15:01 |
Just a detail, but you don't actually |
00:15:04 |
need a corkscrew to open champagne. |
00:15:07 |
- I think you're wrong. |
00:15:09 |
- I don't think I am wrong, actually. |
00:15:18 |
Well, look, it's nothing hugely important. |
00:15:20 |
But what do you say: I give you |
00:15:23 |
you make these changes |
00:15:26 |
- No. |
00:15:27 |
- I'm sorry? |
00:15:29 |
- I won't change a single word |
00:15:48 |
- Final boarding! |
00:15:58 |
(background chatter) |
00:16:41 |
- Miss Deverell. |
00:16:43 |
- Oh. Mr. Gilbright. |
00:16:44 |
What're you doing here? |
00:16:46 |
- I came to apologize |
00:16:49 |
It was... clumsy of me. |
00:16:52 |
They're plenty of other |
00:16:54 |
- The fact is, I've been |
00:16:56 |
and we're prepared to take a risk |
00:16:59 |
and publish Lady Irania |
00:17:02 |
- I don't see that is a risk. |
00:17:04 |
- I just wanted to protect you |
00:17:06 |
- I'm not frightened of critics. |
00:17:08 |
- Splendid. |
00:17:09 |
Well, what time is your train? |
00:17:13 |
- What about travelling back tomorrow? |
00:17:15 |
We could have dinner. |
00:17:17 |
My wife would be delighted |
00:17:22 |
Or perhaps another time, |
00:17:23 |
when you've spoken |
00:17:24 |
- I don't need |
00:18:03 |
I've never tasted wine before. |
00:18:05 |
- Hmm. Does it come up |
00:18:07 |
- I never really had any. |
00:18:13 |
- That's Theo's |
00:18:14 |
We have it shipped over specially |
00:18:17 |
from France. |
00:18:19 |
(laughing) |
00:18:20 |
- My mother would be |
00:18:22 |
She wears |
00:18:24 |
to show she'd never touch |
00:18:26 |
even if offered it by Christ in Heaven. |
00:18:28 |
- I don't like to think |
00:18:30 |
we've given you something |
00:18:33 |
- I want to live my own life. |
00:18:34 |
- For someone |
00:18:36 |
you describe the effects |
00:18:37 |
of drunkenness remarkably well. |
00:18:39 |
- I know I do. |
00:18:42 |
- Theo's read me parts |
00:18:44 |
You must've done |
00:18:47 |
- Oh, no. I made the whole thing |
00:18:50 |
- I see. Which is presumably |
00:18:53 |
seems the fruit of a somewhat |
00:18:55 |
- Miss Deverell and I |
00:18:57 |
have already discussed |
00:18:58 |
- Some of Miss Deverell's |
00:19:02 |
well, to say the least, daring. |
00:19:04 |
- I didn't realize you were |
00:19:08 |
I thought you were my publisher's wife. |
00:19:12 |
- Right... |
00:19:14 |
Shall we go through for coffee? |
00:19:16 |
I'm sure Miss Deverell |
00:19:26 |
(classical music) |
00:19:46 |
- Are those real pearls |
00:19:47 |
your wife's wearing, |
00:19:50 |
- Well, yes, I... I think so. |
00:19:58 |
- And has your wife |
00:20:13 |
(meowing) |
00:20:16 |
Oh! Isn't he adorable?! |
00:20:26 |
- You'll make her sick |
00:20:28 |
She's already been fed. |
00:20:29 |
In the kitchen. |
00:20:31 |
- Don't stop playing, Hermione. |
00:20:32 |
- Oh, isn't that sweet? |
00:20:34 |
Look, the poor little thing, |
00:20:37 |
- She! |
00:20:39 |
What about Scarlatti? |
00:20:40 |
- No. If Miss Deverell |
00:20:43 |
I need to feed the canaries. |
00:20:45 |
- Oh, canaries? I love birds. |
00:20:48 |
- I'm afraid not. |
00:20:53 |
- Well, I wish you'd tell me |
00:20:56 |
Miss Deverell. |
00:20:58 |
What does your father do? |
00:20:59 |
- My father? |
00:21:01 |
- He's dead. |
00:21:02 |
- I'm so sorry. |
00:21:05 |
- And you were born in Norley? |
00:21:06 |
I don't think I know Norley. |
00:21:08 |
What's it like? |
00:21:10 |
- I don't want to talk about it. |
00:21:12 |
- Really? |
00:21:19 |
- I hate Norley. |
00:21:23 |
It's hideous. |
00:21:27 |
Miles and miles of ugly streets |
00:21:31 |
and ugly brick houses. |
00:21:36 |
The people |
00:21:42 |
My mother owns a grocery shop |
00:21:47 |
But please, please, |
00:21:49 |
I don't want anyone |
00:21:52 |
- I-I... I understand. |
00:21:55 |
- You see... |
00:21:59 |
... nothing I'm telling you... |
00:22:01 |
seems real. |
00:22:04 |
And one day... |
00:22:07 |
... I might even stop |
00:22:30 |
- The thing is, Lottie... |
00:22:33 |
... what if Angel |
00:22:36 |
and we just don't understand? |
00:22:38 |
- A mother might be excused |
00:22:41 |
but the fact is, Emmy, |
00:22:44 |
and it's got to be |
00:22:47 |
- Stop? She just writes |
00:22:49 |
It makes me shudder to think |
00:22:52 |
- And where in heaven's name |
00:22:55 |
you know... |
00:22:57 |
the facts of life? |
00:22:58 |
- Well, certainly not from me! |
00:23:13 |
- Thank you very much. |
00:23:17 |
Nice to meet you. |
00:23:20 |
Who shall I make it out to? |
00:23:34 |
- Just one more, please! |
00:23:45 |
- ... the pleasure |
00:23:47 |
to Miss Angel Deverell. |
00:24:11 |
- Where am I? |
00:24:13 |
Where am I? |
00:24:14 |
- You're here with me, |
00:24:17 |
safe in the Castle |
00:24:20 |
- Oh, my darling Sebastian! |
00:24:23 |
My eyes! |
00:24:25 |
I can no longer see! |
00:24:27 |
No longer see the silver tears! |
00:24:29 |
- Rest now. |
00:24:31 |
Let sweet sleep |
00:24:33 |
- Oh, my faithful Sebastian, |
00:24:36 |
you who have never |
00:24:39 |
say, has my whole life |
00:24:42 |
(snoring) |
00:24:44 |
Was it a dream? |
00:24:46 |
- No, my Lady Irania, it was no dream. |
00:24:49 |
Your life has been one |
00:24:53 |
And you live in the Castle of Silver Tears! |
00:24:57 |
- Ah, Sebastian! |
00:25:00 |
Only you... |
00:25:02 |
have truly loved me. |
00:25:04 |
(audience): Ah.... |
00:25:07 |
(applause) |
00:25:24 |
- Ladies and gentlemen, |
00:25:25 |
it is my great pleasure |
00:25:28 |
that we have |
00:25:30 |
the author of our play, |
00:25:34 |
(crowd reacting) |
00:25:43 |
- Stand up, Angel. |
00:26:02 |
(cheering) |
00:26:30 |
- Thank you for coming. |
00:26:32 |
- Truly marvellous. |
00:26:34 |
It's nice to meet you. |
00:26:37 |
- Why don't you say hello |
00:26:40 |
- Oh, I daren't. |
00:26:41 |
- Why not? |
00:26:44 |
- Yes, but what if |
00:26:47 |
- Congratulations, |
00:26:49 |
- Oh, thank you, Lord Norley. |
00:26:51 |
- A most magnificent evening. |
00:26:53 |
- I'm glad you enjoyed it. |
00:26:54 |
This is my publisher. |
00:26:56 |
- Theo Gilbright. |
00:26:57 |
- I was just saying to Theo-- |
00:27:00 |
to introduce my niece, Nora. |
00:27:03 |
Come on now, Nora. |
00:27:06 |
Homage from one writer |
00:27:09 |
- Uncle, you're not to mention |
00:27:11 |
in front of Miss Deverell. |
00:27:13 |
- I write a little verse, yes. |
00:27:16 |
- My own. |
00:27:18 |
Nora Howe-Nevinson. |
00:27:20 |
It's nothing compared |
00:27:23 |
astonishingly beautiful work, |
00:27:25 |
- Thank you, you're very kind. |
00:27:27 |
- May I also present |
00:27:29 |
Mr Esme Howe-Nevinson. |
00:27:33 |
- So you must be... |
00:27:35 |
- Nora's brother. Exactly. |
00:27:40 |
- It was Miss Deverell, Esme, |
00:27:42 |
- Most generous. |
00:27:45 |
by Watts |
00:27:46 |
to the City Art Gallery. |
00:27:47 |
One of the town's |
00:27:49 |
Another, of course, |
00:27:51 |
being Miss Deverell herself. |
00:27:53 |
I wasn't acquainted |
00:27:56 |
- Oh, well, the play |
00:27:59 |
It hardly does justice |
00:28:00 |
to the complexities |
00:28:02 |
- And why Watts? |
00:28:04 |
- I'm sorry? |
00:28:05 |
- Out of all the painters |
00:28:08 |
why would you choose Watts? |
00:28:10 |
I'd always wondered how these |
00:28:13 |
into provincial galleries. |
00:28:16 |
- Esme! |
00:28:17 |
It must've cost |
00:28:19 |
in a few years, |
00:28:22 |
I'm simply letting |
00:28:24 |
know the facts. |
00:28:26 |
- Well, in future, |
00:28:29 |
- Please do. |
00:28:30 |
To offer it |
00:28:36 |
- You must forgive my nephew. |
00:28:38 |
Esme is a painter himself, |
00:28:40 |
Such miserable pictures. |
00:28:41 |
Back streets |
00:28:44 |
No sparing the sordid details. |
00:28:52 |
- That was quite a compliment |
00:28:55 |
I'm always pleased to see |
00:28:58 |
The brother, though... |
00:29:00 |
Rather rude. |
00:29:01 |
Good-looking, though. |
00:29:14 |
- Stop! |
00:29:15 |
- Stop the car! |
00:29:18 |
- What is it? |
00:29:21 |
- Turn off to the right. |
00:29:50 |
- Splendid old place. |
00:29:52 |
- Yes. |
00:29:54 |
- Is it empty? |
00:29:56 |
- My aunt used to work there, |
00:29:58 |
but the family lost everything |
00:30:01 |
- Did you go there as a child? |
00:30:08 |
When I was little, |
00:30:09 |
I used to think I would live |
00:30:14 |
It was all I ever dreamed of. |
00:30:18 |
Everyone told me |
00:30:21 |
because I said out loud |
00:30:23 |
the things |
00:30:30 |
But all I wanted |
00:30:33 |
To wish and to wish |
00:30:37 |
and to make it true. |
00:31:01 |
- A gift from Paradise. |
00:31:05 |
- Thank you. |
00:31:17 |
- It's getting rather cold. |
00:31:19 |
Perhaps we should go. |
00:31:53 |
- Come on! |
00:32:01 |
- Don't you think |
00:32:03 |
- Of course not. |
00:32:08 |
- Just to think of your aunt |
00:32:10 |
- Well, I'm not a servant. |
00:32:13 |
You should be proud of me. |
00:32:14 |
- Oh, of course |
00:32:18 |
It's just so big... |
00:32:28 |
- Round to the left. |
00:32:31 |
- Be careful, |
00:32:33 |
Oh... |
00:32:36 |
Oh, good! Come on! |
00:32:43 |
Lovely! |
00:32:44 |
Oh, excellent! |
00:32:49 |
Yes, be very careful... |
00:32:51 |
Oh, did you see your bedroom? |
00:32:53 |
- Oh, yes, yes, |
00:33:04 |
(playing some notes) |
00:33:15 |
- "She knew... |
00:33:19 |
"... from the first... |
00:33:22 |
"moment... |
00:33:24 |
in her short--" |
00:33:26 |
- Angel, Miss Howe-Nevinson |
00:33:28 |
She wants to see you. |
00:33:30 |
- I think she's the sister |
00:33:32 |
of that young painter |
00:33:34 |
- And he is here? |
00:33:41 |
- I brought you the poems, |
00:33:44 |
- Oh, yes... of course. |
00:33:50 |
- Please don't be too critical. |
00:33:51 |
They're really |
00:33:53 |
- Oh, no doubt. |
00:33:56 |
- But the real reason I... |
00:33:58 |
Miss Deverell, |
00:34:01 |
... the hugest... hugest favour |
00:34:02 |
- I... Mother! I thought |
00:34:06 |
It is the servants' job. |
00:34:07 |
- But you know |
00:34:10 |
- It would be much more helpful |
00:34:12 |
and rested. |
00:34:14 |
- Alright, sweetheart. |
00:34:20 |
- You were saying, Nora? |
00:34:22 |
- I wanted to offer you |
00:34:25 |
- Services? |
00:34:28 |
- I mean as personal secretary. |
00:34:30 |
with all the trivial things |
00:34:31 |
a great novelist like yourself |
00:34:34 |
- But I already have |
00:34:36 |
- But not someone |
00:34:40 |
Not someone |
00:34:44 |
Do they even |
00:34:47 |
- No, I suppose not. |
00:34:50 |
- Then please take me on. |
00:34:52 |
To work for you |
00:34:55 |
beautiful way |
00:34:59 |
There are so many things, |
00:35:01 |
I could do for you. |
00:35:06 |
- You still haven't told me |
00:35:09 |
- Don't talk to me about Esme. |
00:35:12 |
- When my uncle paid for |
00:35:15 |
my brother behaved so badly |
00:35:17 |
- In Italy? What do you mean? |
00:35:20 |
There was one who was |
00:35:23 |
be ruined on his account - |
00:35:25 |
until her husband found out. |
00:35:27 |
and we had to pack up |
00:35:32 |
- What was this woman like? |
00:35:33 |
- Beautiful - a countessa - |
00:35:36 |
but with Esme, |
00:35:38 |
- Was he in love with her? |
00:35:40 |
- Oh! Love? My brother's |
00:35:43 |
other than himself, that is. |
00:35:45 |
And it was all |
00:35:47 |
I was forced to sell my own |
00:35:49 |
- You mustn't be |
00:35:53 |
One day he'll find his feet |
00:35:56 |
just as I live |
00:35:58 |
- But you've never even seen |
00:36:00 |
- No, but I've imagined them. |
00:37:05 |
Well, well... |
00:37:06 |
Miss Deverell. |
00:37:09 |
This is... unexpected. |
00:37:11 |
- I was in the neighbourhood, |
00:37:12 |
and seeing as your sister |
00:37:16 |
I just thought-- |
00:37:21 |
Forgive the mess, |
00:37:22 |
but I've only |
00:37:25 |
If I'd known a lady was coming, |
00:37:27 |
cleared some of this up. |
00:37:29 |
- Oh, you mustn't worry. |
00:37:33 |
I-I'm something |
00:37:37 |
- And... how's my sister? |
00:37:42 |
- Nora is very well |
00:37:44 |
- I can imagine. |
00:37:47 |
She's always had a gift |
00:37:49 |
for living |
00:37:51 |
Please. |
00:37:52 |
- Well, she certainly |
00:37:54 |
I've always encouraged her |
00:37:56 |
to share in the brilliance |
00:37:58 |
- So... to what do I owe |
00:38:01 |
of this visit? |
00:38:02 |
- I've come |
00:38:05 |
- Really? |
00:38:07 |
- Well, since you were so cruel |
00:38:10 |
I thought I could make amends |
00:38:13 |
one of your paintings |
00:38:15 |
(laughing) |
00:38:18 |
Anyway, I don't think |
00:38:20 |
- That's what I'm here |
00:39:00 |
Ah. |
00:39:02 |
I can't paint Italy. |
00:39:05 |
- Yes. Of course. |
00:39:07 |
Italy is so banal. |
00:39:10 |
You're much more inspired |
00:39:13 |
- I'm so pleased you say that. |
00:39:16 |
I didn't think you'd like |
00:39:19 |
as Nora calls them. |
00:39:20 |
- My favourite's the, uh... |
00:39:22 |
level-crossing. |
00:39:24 |
- Mine as well. |
00:39:27 |
- I'd like to buy it, |
00:39:35 |
- I don't know. |
00:39:37 |
- Would you be prepared |
00:39:43 |
Well, I... paid 300 |
00:39:45 |
and I'm sure your paintings |
00:39:47 |
at least as much, |
00:39:52 |
- Considering all your kindness |
00:39:55 |
you can have it for... |
00:40:00 |
... shall we say 400? |
00:40:02 |
- Four-hundred pounds? |
00:40:10 |
- I'm glad you didn't like the Italian one. |
00:40:13 |
- There's something about Italy |
00:40:14 |
which brings out the vulgar |
00:40:18 |
Don't you think? |
00:40:24 |
And... |
00:40:26 |
what are your fees |
00:40:28 |
- For a portrait? |
00:40:29 |
I don't paint portraits. |
00:40:34 |
- Not even mine? |
00:40:35 |
- I wouldn't want to be accused |
00:40:37 |
of making a smudge-painting |
00:40:39 |
- Maybe being smudged |
00:40:41 |
is nicer than it sounds. |
00:40:46 |
- Let's see. |
00:41:06 |
Very beautiful eyes... |
00:41:10 |
Very clear skin... |
00:41:15 |
And hair... |
00:41:17 |
that glistens in the light... |
00:41:19 |
(laugh shyly) |
00:41:23 |
Don't tell me you're not used |
00:41:27 |
- I really should be going. |
00:41:30 |
And shall we say tomorrow, |
00:41:32 |
at the same time? |
00:41:36 |
- You don't mean |
00:41:37 |
to paint the portrait here? |
00:41:39 |
- Why not? I like the light. |
00:41:41 |
- I... I'd just imagined |
00:41:43 |
- Trust me, this is perfect. |
00:41:45 |
- And what about clothes? |
00:41:47 |
I was thinking something |
00:41:49 |
Or maybe something |
00:41:50 |
completely simple like... |
00:41:53 |
(scoffing) |
00:41:55 |
- No, come just as you are |
00:41:57 |
- But this dress is so drab. |
00:41:59 |
- It's not the dress |
00:42:32 |
I read one of your books, |
00:42:34 |
- Oh, really? |
00:42:35 |
Aspasia. |
00:42:38 |
My landlady lent it to me. |
00:42:40 |
I read it straight through. |
00:42:42 |
(Angel laughing slightly) |
00:42:44 |
And I realized |
00:42:47 |
- My secret? |
00:42:51 |
- I think the secret |
00:42:56 |
is that you communicate |
00:42:58 |
not your readers. |
00:43:01 |
Am I right? |
00:43:03 |
- Yes. Possibly. |
00:43:12 |
Are... are you tired? |
00:43:15 |
The thing is, Angel, |
00:43:18 |
I find you utterly surprising |
00:43:26 |
But how can I paint you |
00:43:27 |
if I don't know |
00:43:33 |
Because you give me little hints |
00:43:36 |
about your childhood, |
00:43:38 |
but none of it connects. |
00:43:41 |
Something's missing. |
00:43:46 |
How can I paint you |
00:43:50 |
- Maybe I don't know |
00:43:53 |
- What happened to you in Italy? |
00:44:03 |
- I've never been to Italy. |
00:44:06 |
- Alright, maybe not in Italy, |
00:44:09 |
but to do with Italy. |
00:44:12 |
What was it? |
00:44:14 |
Was it love? |
00:44:19 |
I'm sure it was something |
00:44:24 |
- It was jealousy. |
00:44:48 |
(knocking) |
00:44:49 |
(sighing) |
00:44:52 |
- Who is it? |
00:44:54 |
- Oh, Nora! |
00:44:57 |
Come in, come in! |
00:45:01 |
- The doctor's very worried, |
00:45:02 |
I really think you ought |
00:45:05 |
- It's very sweet of you to be |
00:45:08 |
but I've lots of professional |
00:45:10 |
particularly now. |
00:45:11 |
As soon I'm finished |
00:45:18 |
- You're seeing him, |
00:45:20 |
- Seeing who? Theo? |
00:45:25 |
- What makes you say that? |
00:45:27 |
- Be careful. |
00:45:30 |
(laughing) |
00:45:31 |
I'm not a child, Nora. |
00:45:33 |
And I hardly see Esme |
00:45:35 |
as life-threatening. |
00:45:37 |
I was pleasantly |
00:45:39 |
They may not match |
00:45:41 |
my own ideas of beauty, |
00:45:44 |
- I'm not talking |
00:45:46 |
I'm talking about him. |
00:45:52 |
- You're not jealous, are you? |
00:45:54 |
- Jealous? |
00:45:57 |
- Of my interest |
00:46:00 |
- But it's not |
00:46:02 |
- It's true. |
00:46:04 |
I do like Esme. |
00:46:06 |
But in the same way |
00:46:10 |
Come. |
00:46:23 |
I hated being an only child. |
00:46:28 |
I would have loved |
00:46:33 |
A sister like you. |
00:46:50 |
But what did the doctor say? |
00:46:52 |
is more dangerous |
00:46:54 |
He's not sure she'll recover, |
00:46:56 |
- Well, what's he doing about it? |
00:46:58 |
There must be some kind |
00:47:00 |
- I'm just telling you |
00:47:12 |
- You're here...! |
00:47:15 |
Angel... |
00:47:17 |
My darling. |
00:47:20 |
- Your hands are freezing. |
00:47:23 |
- Have you told Aunt Lottie? |
00:47:26 |
- Of course. |
00:47:29 |
- Why isn't she here? |
00:47:32 |
- I don't know. |
00:47:35 |
- I'm frightened |
00:47:38 |
- Don't say that. |
00:47:40 |
I used to love it... |
00:47:42 |
when she could come |
00:47:45 |
at the grocery. |
00:47:47 |
Remember? |
00:47:49 |
- Of course. |
00:47:51 |
But you'll get better |
00:47:56 |
- You're so sweet to me. |
00:48:01 |
Angel... |
00:48:03 |
- I want you to forgive me |
00:48:05 |
for bringing you up |
00:48:08 |
I know it was hard for you, |
00:48:10 |
and even harder |
00:48:13 |
You were such |
00:48:19 |
So cheeky... |
00:48:21 |
and clever. |
00:48:25 |
He worshipped you. |
00:48:28 |
You know what I regret most? |
00:48:33 |
- It's not having the time |
00:48:36 |
to see you marrying |
00:48:38 |
and have a child. |
00:48:40 |
- But I don't have time |
00:48:43 |
I have my work. |
00:48:45 |
- Your work... |
00:48:47 |
your books... |
00:48:54 |
(exhaling) |
00:48:56 |
Oh, no! |
00:48:58 |
Oh, no! |
00:49:00 |
No! |
00:49:02 |
No, don't leave me! |
00:49:06 |
Oh, please don't leave me... |
00:49:10 |
(sobbing): |
00:49:12 |
please don't leave me. |
00:49:23 |
- Well? |
00:49:26 |
- Oh, my God... |
00:49:31 |
(crying) |
00:49:34 |
- On behalf |
00:49:36 |
I would like to offer |
00:49:39 |
on the death of your mother, |
00:49:41 |
a woman well known by us all |
00:49:46 |
- My mother was above all else |
00:49:51 |
- Was she? |
00:49:55 |
- She played the piano. |
00:49:59 |
She was considered to be |
00:50:00 |
one of England's |
00:50:04 |
- I see. That's something |
00:50:08 |
- Her natural humility |
00:50:10 |
prevented her |
00:50:13 |
... exceptional musical gift. |
00:50:17 |
- And like yourself, |
00:50:20 |
- My childhood |
00:50:24 |
It's true I was brought |
00:50:28 |
but from where, |
00:50:32 |
I always thought |
00:50:35 |
perhaps from my father's side. |
00:50:39 |
But my mother passed away |
00:50:40 |
before she could divulge |
00:51:03 |
(background chatter) |
00:51:10 |
(laughing mockingly) |
00:51:11 |
- Well... I wonder |
00:51:14 |
to make an appearance. |
00:51:15 |
- She should be already here. |
00:51:18 |
- She's probably anxious. |
00:51:19 |
- Oh, I think |
00:51:21 |
about the people |
00:51:23 |
- I did explain nobody |
00:51:26 |
It's not personal. |
00:51:29 |
They resent the fact |
00:51:35 |
Have you seen my brother? |
00:51:37 |
- Oh, yes. |
00:51:41 |
Excuse me. |
00:51:45 |
- Mr. Howe-Nevinson, |
00:51:48 |
- Of course. |
00:51:51 |
- Well, I think it's wonderful |
00:51:53 |
that your sister's working |
00:51:54 |
She seems absolutely devoted. |
00:51:57 |
- In love with her? |
00:51:59 |
- Oh, yes. Passionately. |
00:52:02 |
- Are you by any chance Miss |
00:52:05 |
whose talents Miss Deverell |
00:52:08 |
- I am, actually. |
00:52:09 |
- Then allow me |
00:52:11 |
Hermione Gilbright, |
00:52:12 |
"the publisher's wife." |
00:52:14 |
- Delighted to meet you. |
00:52:18 |
- My wife's a great devotee |
00:52:20 |
She's extremely keen |
00:52:22 |
- Particularly your portrait |
00:52:23 |
I can't wait to see it. |
00:52:24 |
- Angel made off with it |
00:52:27 |
I believe she wants to use it |
00:52:30 |
- Haven't you been told? |
00:52:31 |
- Told what? |
00:52:34 |
she intends to unveil it here |
00:52:42 |
- Didn't you know, |
00:52:57 |
(piano playing) |
00:53:03 |
(applause) |
00:53:08 |
Well, your darling Angel |
00:53:11 |
her mother's death |
00:53:14 |
- Oh, thank you for coming. |
00:53:17 |
Thank you so much. |
00:53:19 |
Thank you so much for coming. |
00:53:21 |
It's my pleasure. Thank you. |
00:53:23 |
Thank you. |
00:53:27 |
- Tell her |
00:53:30 |
- So kind. |
00:53:34 |
- Angel, you're beautiful. |
00:53:35 |
- Where's Esme? |
00:53:38 |
- Drinking, I should imagine. |
00:53:39 |
- Actually, I think he left. |
00:53:42 |
- How incredibly rude. |
00:53:44 |
Angel arranged all this for him |
00:53:45 |
- When did he leave? |
00:53:48 |
- Angel! |
00:53:53 |
- Whatever's got into her? |
00:53:55 |
- Could it be love? |
00:54:05 |
- Esme! |
00:54:09 |
Esme! |
00:54:11 |
Esme! |
00:54:13 |
Why did you leave? |
00:54:15 |
I wanted to surprise you. |
00:54:17 |
- Why do you want |
00:54:20 |
I hate those people. |
00:54:21 |
- I thought |
00:54:23 |
- Make me happy? |
00:54:24 |
Make yourself happy, |
00:54:26 |
- No, that's not true. |
00:54:29 |
I want everyone else |
00:54:31 |
- You're wasting your time, |
00:54:34 |
My paintings are worthless! |
00:54:36 |
- Don't say that! |
00:54:38 |
You just need someone |
00:54:43 |
- When I look |
00:54:45 |
I could almost believe it. |
00:54:46 |
- You have to believe it, Esme, |
00:54:50 |
(thunder crashing) |
00:54:52 |
I could pay off all your debts. |
00:54:56 |
You'd be free from all |
00:54:58 |
that keep you here. |
00:55:00 |
Come with me |
00:55:03 |
Marry me, Esme. |
00:55:06 |
- Marry you? |
00:55:07 |
Isn't that what the man's |
00:55:09 |
- Who cares? I love you. |
00:55:12 |
- You love me? |
00:55:13 |
- I've loved you |
00:55:16 |
and I'll go on loving you |
00:55:46 |
Continue please, Nora. |
00:55:56 |
(crowd, shocked): Oh...! |
00:56:43 |
(donkey braying) |
00:57:19 |
- Oh... |
00:57:20 |
I'm so pleased you're back. |
00:57:22 |
I was so worried, |
00:57:25 |
- It's not because |
00:57:26 |
I just missed Paradise! |
00:57:29 |
- Oh, it's so good to be home! |
00:57:32 |
But where's Sultan? |
00:57:34 |
I imagined him bounding down |
00:57:36 |
- Edwina, fetch Sultan |
00:57:38 |
- Yes, miss. |
00:57:42 |
- Oh, you put the portrait here. |
00:57:45 |
I'd rather imagined it |
00:57:48 |
- It's easily moved. |
00:57:49 |
- And the curtains. I thought |
00:57:51 |
- I don't believe so. Of course |
00:57:54 |
(dog barking) |
00:57:55 |
- Oh, Sultan! Hello, boy! Hello. |
00:57:58 |
Oh, Sultan, have you forgotten |
00:58:02 |
(laughing) |
00:58:03 |
(dog whimpering) |
00:58:08 |
That's not Sultan. |
00:58:10 |
I didn't want to spoil things |
00:58:13 |
But Sultan... |
00:58:15 |
- No! |
00:58:16 |
- But I tried to find |
00:58:18 |
(Esme laughing) |
00:58:26 |
- Oh, well. Thank you, Nora. |
00:58:29 |
(whispering): Yes, the workmen |
00:58:32 |
- Come, my darling. |
00:58:34 |
- How exciting. |
00:58:42 |
- My word. |
00:58:43 |
- Well, you've never |
00:58:47 |
(Esme whistling) |
00:58:51 |
- Extraordinary. |
00:58:53 |
- You're happy? |
00:58:54 |
- Oh, but I haven't shown you |
00:58:58 |
- Later. |
00:59:01 |
So? What do you think? |
00:59:05 |
- It's... wonderful. |
00:59:07 |
(Angel laughing) |
00:59:08 |
But all this sunlight... |
00:59:13 |
- It's not really normal |
00:59:16 |
A studio normally faces north. |
00:59:17 |
- So? You can finally have |
00:59:20 |
in your paintings! |
00:59:23 |
- Aren't you happy? |
00:59:27 |
- This is where you're going |
00:59:31 |
- Nobody has ever given me |
00:59:36 |
Thank you, Angel. |
00:59:53 |
- Can I come in? |
01:00:01 |
- Ready? |
01:00:10 |
You can come in now. |
01:00:14 |
- Oh. What is it? |
01:00:16 |
- Water from the sacred spring |
01:00:18 |
Legend says |
01:00:20 |
and it used to inspire |
01:00:24 |
(laughing) |
01:00:26 |
I brought it back |
01:00:29 |
- Oh, thank you, Angel. |
01:00:32 |
Oh... |
01:00:42 |
- Good night, sweet, sweet Nora. |
01:00:44 |
- Good night, Angel. |
01:00:50 |
Good night, Esme. |
01:01:00 |
- I'm not sure there's room |
01:01:03 |
under the same roof. |
01:01:04 |
- Of course there is. |
01:01:07 |
And I need you both, |
01:01:28 |
Where did you go? |
01:01:30 |
- Walking in the garden. |
01:01:32 |
- And did you find |
01:01:35 |
- It's too dark to see, |
01:01:37 |
but it's certainly ideal |
01:01:40 |
- Oh, no! |
01:01:41 |
Please don't hunt |
01:01:45 |
Poor defenceless creatures. |
01:01:48 |
- Take care, |
01:01:49 |
I'm about to attack |
01:01:52 |
right now. |
01:01:54 |
- No, Esme! Don't! |
01:01:56 |
(giggling) |
01:01:58 |
Oh, no, let him stay. |
01:02:01 |
(dog whimpering) |
01:02:11 |
Not in front of the dog. |
01:02:14 |
- Dogs are used to it. |
01:03:03 |
- "Her pale eyelids |
01:03:05 |
"fluttering down |
01:03:07 |
"over her huge blue eyes... |
01:03:12 |
"... and the great love |
01:03:17 |
"... slumbering sweetly |
01:03:22 |
"... she whispered |
01:03:29 |
"'This is the most beautiful day |
01:03:33 |
"Together forever... |
01:03:36 |
... living in Paradise'." |
01:03:43 |
And how are my lovely flowers? |
01:03:48 |
Why do you have |
01:03:50 |
What's wrong with using colour? |
01:03:52 |
- But these are colours. |
01:03:54 |
Look: grey, burnt umber... |
01:03:57 |
This part here's violet. |
01:03:59 |
- But it's ridiculous. |
01:04:01 |
They don't look anything |
01:04:05 |
- All I'm doing |
01:04:07 |
- In which case, what you see |
01:04:10 |
- Since when was my darling |
01:04:14 |
Everything you write's |
01:04:16 |
- But I'm not interested |
01:04:18 |
but what's beautiful. |
01:04:20 |
- As far as I'm concerned, |
01:04:31 |
- Do you know where Esme is? |
01:04:33 |
- I think he is with Marvell. |
01:04:36 |
- Maybe, or at the races. |
01:04:37 |
(knocking) |
01:04:39 |
- Excuse me, madam. |
01:04:42 |
- No, madam. Sorry, madam. |
01:04:44 |
But something terrible's |
01:04:46 |
- Well? What is it? |
01:04:48 |
- War! |
01:04:49 |
They've declared war! |
01:04:51 |
- Oh, my God, is she ever |
01:04:54 |
- Angel, show some compassion. |
01:04:56 |
Her fiance's joining the army. |
01:04:58 |
- John, the gardener? |
01:05:00 |
- Well, I hope he doesn't come |
01:05:02 |
wanting his job back |
01:05:05 |
- A couple of months? |
01:05:06 |
A war can last for years. |
01:05:09 |
Please forgive us, |
01:05:12 |
- Don't worry. |
01:05:13 |
I've just come |
01:05:15 |
- To do what? |
01:05:17 |
- I'm going to London. |
01:05:19 |
I'm enlisting. |
01:05:20 |
- Esme! |
01:05:24 |
- This afternoon. |
01:05:25 |
- You can't! |
01:05:29 |
You can't do this to me. |
01:05:31 |
We've just moved |
01:05:33 |
- Angel, please don't. |
01:05:34 |
This is not personal. |
01:05:36 |
- Not personal? |
01:05:38 |
- The country's at war. |
01:05:39 |
I can't stay here cut off |
01:05:42 |
It wouldn't be right. |
01:05:43 |
- Oh! So killing animals |
01:05:47 |
You need a war to satisfy |
01:05:50 |
- Don't be so ridiculous. |
01:05:51 |
You don't know |
01:05:53 |
It's got nothing to do with it. |
01:05:54 |
- You're all the same: |
01:05:58 |
needing to kill |
01:06:00 |
- Well, if men |
01:06:02 |
you'll be much better off |
01:06:04 |
- You have no right |
01:06:05 |
to do this! |
01:06:07 |
- Yes, I can. |
01:06:22 |
- I warn you! |
01:06:24 |
If you walk out that door, |
01:06:26 |
you'll find it |
01:06:37 |
- Please, Angel... |
01:06:39 |
(sobbing) |
01:06:41 |
... that's enough. |
01:06:48 |
- Take care of her. |
01:06:50 |
She's not as strong as we think. |
01:06:52 |
- Of course I will. |
01:06:56 |
I'm proud of you, Esme. |
01:07:00 |
- I'm doing my duty, that's all. |
01:07:13 |
- God knows how she'd go on |
01:07:15 |
- You're not to talk like that. |
01:07:19 |
Esme will be back. |
01:07:25 |
(sobbing) |
01:07:41 |
- Good afternoon. |
01:07:43 |
- Oh, I'm sorry, sir, |
01:07:45 |
- Oh. |
01:07:46 |
- Don't tell Miss Deverell, |
01:07:48 |
with the war-wounded |
01:07:50 |
- Well, good. |
01:07:53 |
I do so wish I'd seen Esme |
01:07:57 |
- Oh, really? |
01:07:59 |
See, I thought |
01:08:01 |
that you disinherited. |
01:08:03 |
I had no idea his uniform |
01:08:06 |
- What a wonderful thing |
01:08:09 |
- I'm simply saying, |
01:08:11 |
that I'm glad to see Esme |
01:08:13 |
finally becoming a man. |
01:08:17 |
You must miss him a great deal. |
01:08:20 |
- If there's anything I can do-- |
01:08:23 |
- There's nothing anyone can do! |
01:08:26 |
I have my work. |
01:08:28 |
- There's a great loss |
01:08:29 |
every time we drag you |
01:08:32 |
But I do believe that |
01:08:36 |
you might feel |
01:08:40 |
you were fighting |
01:08:43 |
- What do you mean, |
01:08:45 |
- Well, for example, |
01:08:47 |
you could allow us |
01:08:48 |
to set up a second hospital |
01:08:51 |
- Paradise? A hospital? |
01:08:54 |
- Yes. |
01:08:55 |
It would be extremely useful |
01:09:02 |
- This war... |
01:09:04 |
has separated me |
01:09:08 |
It has been the cause |
01:09:13 |
I do not allow Nora |
01:09:17 |
to mention it in my presence. |
01:09:19 |
And I will never let Paradise |
01:09:22 |
fall into the hands |
01:09:29 |
More tea, Lord Norley? |
01:09:35 |
- I think perhaps it would be |
01:09:38 |
- Better for the war effort, |
01:09:48 |
- Madam? |
01:09:54 |
- I'm leaving. |
01:10:57 |
(crying in pain) |
01:11:00 |
- Oh! |
01:11:07 |
- How advanced was it? |
01:11:10 |
- If only my brother |
01:11:12 |
- I suppose it could've made |
01:11:15 |
- And what should I do now? |
01:11:17 |
- Once she's over the shock, |
01:11:20 |
She just needs rest. |
01:11:34 |
- You're feeling better? |
01:11:39 |
- Do you want me |
01:11:45 |
- Tell him to come home... |
01:11:49 |
... even if it's just on leave. |
01:11:54 |
Tell him that I miss him |
01:11:56 |
and that I forgive him. |
01:12:02 |
But nothing about the baby. |
01:12:05 |
- He has a right to know, Angel. |
01:12:07 |
- He has no right to know. |
01:12:10 |
He deserted me. |
01:12:12 |
- He didn't desert you. |
01:12:13 |
He just, for the first time |
01:12:17 |
made a grown-up decision. |
01:12:19 |
- He's ruined everything. |
01:12:21 |
Everything. |
01:12:23 |
- He hasn't ruined everything. |
01:12:25 |
- I'm still here. |
01:12:28 |
to wait for him to come home. |
01:12:33 |
- Esme's desperate |
01:12:38 |
If he finds out I lost his baby, |
01:12:45 |
Please... |
01:12:47 |
promise me you won't tell him. |
01:12:54 |
- I promise. |
01:12:56 |
(train whistle blowing) |
01:12:58 |
- Oh, darling! |
01:13:03 |
(background chatter) |
01:13:07 |
- Mr. Gilbright. |
01:13:08 |
Did you have a good trip? |
01:13:10 |
- A long one, |
01:13:12 |
- Very good of you to come. |
01:13:16 |
I said I was visiting |
01:13:18 |
(chuckling) |
01:13:19 |
- I had to lie to my wife |
01:13:21 |
Thank you. |
01:13:24 |
I don't know |
01:13:27 |
Her last book, I'm afraid, |
01:13:31 |
- I thought |
01:13:33 |
- No, I'm afraid |
01:13:35 |
Her readers are disturbed |
01:13:37 |
by this new-found pacifism. |
01:13:40 |
in a romantic novel. |
01:13:42 |
I've said this to Angel, |
01:13:46 |
- But she's still |
01:13:49 |
Nothing can alter that. |
01:13:50 |
- What she needs to do |
01:13:52 |
to the way she used to write |
01:13:55 |
to distract them |
01:13:56 |
If she doesn't, I ask myself |
01:13:59 |
And I'm not just saying this |
01:14:02 |
but as her friend. |
01:14:04 |
Miss Howe, are you alright? |
01:14:06 |
Carefully. |
01:14:26 |
- Who on earth is she? |
01:14:28 |
- She's an old acquaintance. |
01:14:30 |
My God, what if Angel finds out |
01:14:34 |
How could Esme do this to her? |
01:14:37 |
I'm going to talk to him. |
01:14:39 |
- No, no, no! Nora, Nora, Nora. |
01:14:41 |
Leave him be. Really. |
01:14:51 |
- Well? What's it like? |
01:14:55 |
- Not wonderful. |
01:14:58 |
- Such a shame. |
01:15:02 |
- Don't tell me |
01:15:06 |
- Now everybody's |
01:15:08 |
I do feel |
01:15:11 |
Perhaps I understand you more. |
01:15:15 |
- Understand me? |
01:15:17 |
Because you had |
01:15:19 |
when no one else would. |
01:15:22 |
- I'm pleased to hear you |
01:15:25 |
(scoffing) |
01:15:27 |
- I can't take her side |
01:15:29 |
There's not one of her books |
01:15:34 |
But I've come |
01:15:36 |
Despite all her bad taste |
01:15:39 |
she fought for her dreams |
01:15:41 |
and got everything she wanted: |
01:15:46 |
Even the man she loved. |
01:15:49 |
- The man she loved. |
01:15:54 |
- Are you still |
01:15:58 |
(scoffing) |
01:16:04 |
- Your eyes. |
01:16:14 |
- Angel! |
01:16:16 |
A telegram! |
01:16:20 |
- Well, open it. |
01:16:21 |
Oh, my God, he's been killed. |
01:16:25 |
- He's wounded. |
01:16:27 |
They're sending him home. |
01:16:31 |
They're sending him home! |
01:16:38 |
- And what will you do |
01:16:41 |
- Paint! I'd love you |
01:16:44 |
You should see them |
01:16:47 |
- I'm not sure Esme is going |
01:16:50 |
Not after |
01:16:51 |
- But we have |
01:16:54 |
None of it matters now. |
01:16:56 |
Things'll be just as they were. |
01:16:58 |
- Just as they were? |
01:17:00 |
- Yes. You've lost your leg, |
01:17:03 |
And I'll buy you a wheelchair, |
01:17:04 |
and then you can go |
01:17:20 |
Do you want me to help you? |
01:17:22 |
- No. |
01:17:41 |
- Good night. |
01:17:45 |
What're you doing? What is it? |
01:17:48 |
(sighing heavily) |
01:17:51 |
- I've missed you, Angel. |
01:17:57 |
- Are you sure |
01:18:00 |
With your leg...? |
01:18:07 |
(grunting) |
01:19:17 |
- Actually, I don't think |
01:19:20 |
if you left a second time. |
01:19:21 |
- So what do you expect me |
01:19:26 |
Try to bury me alive? |
01:19:28 |
- No, I expect you |
01:19:31 |
- Paint what? |
01:19:35 |
Sultan? |
01:19:36 |
Angel's cats? |
01:19:37 |
- Paint what you saw in the war. |
01:19:41 |
- Nobody's interested in that. |
01:19:43 |
They'd rather forget. |
01:19:48 |
- I was looking |
01:19:50 |
and there were |
01:19:52 |
- So what? Throw them away. |
01:19:54 |
- I liked them. |
01:19:56 |
(laughing) |
01:20:02 |
- Come on, Nora. |
01:20:04 |
You've never liked |
01:20:14 |
You saw me in London, |
01:20:20 |
- Yes. |
01:20:23 |
- Did you tell her? |
01:20:29 |
- No. |
01:20:33 |
(Angel giggling) |
01:20:34 |
- "Dear madam, |
01:20:36 |
"having had personal experience |
01:20:39 |
"I would ask you |
01:20:42 |
"those sadistic descriptions |
01:20:45 |
As a lover of literature |
01:20:47 |
(Angel laughing) |
01:20:48 |
That's enough. Burn it. |
01:21:00 |
Thank you, my darling. |
01:21:03 |
- Angel... |
01:21:04 |
- There's something |
01:21:06 |
- Oh? |
01:21:08 |
- What do you mean? |
01:21:09 |
- I've got none left |
01:21:15 |
I'm very, very sorry. |
01:21:18 |
I realize how much |
01:21:20 |
having married a gambler. |
01:21:21 |
A chronic one, at that. |
01:21:26 |
- I've never regretted it. |
01:21:30 |
Have you? |
01:21:32 |
- You're the one |
01:21:35 |
Nora always said |
01:21:37 |
- I don't have any money. |
01:21:41 |
- That's it, then, |
01:21:42 |
I'm finished. |
01:21:43 |
- Of course not. |
01:21:46 |
I can get money. |
01:21:47 |
It's just a case of giving |
01:21:52 |
- I feel despicable |
01:21:54 |
- How soon? |
01:21:57 |
- Well, with gambling debts, |
01:22:01 |
for a little while, |
01:22:03 |
- Don't worry, |
01:22:06 |
and I'm not going |
01:22:09 |
until I've written "The End." |
01:22:44 |
- Oh! |
01:22:46 |
Angel, it's magnificent. |
01:22:48 |
Theo's going to be so pleased. |
01:22:50 |
- Going to make even more money |
01:22:56 |
(whispering words) |
01:23:03 |
- "... of what he had..." |
01:23:49 |
- Marvell! Marv! |
01:23:51 |
Just in time! |
01:24:25 |
(panting) |
01:24:37 |
- You write too much. |
01:24:39 |
- Oh, get off. |
01:24:45 |
Oh! What are you doing?! |
01:24:47 |
- Giving you a little present |
01:24:49 |
for writing all your lovely, |
01:24:51 |
(Angel screaming) |
01:24:55 |
(screaming) |
01:24:57 |
- A little baby...! |
01:24:59 |
A little baby boy! |
01:25:02 |
With one little leg. |
01:25:03 |
(Angel screaming and crying) |
01:25:06 |
A little baby... |
01:25:08 |
Esme, stop it! Stop it! |
01:25:11 |
Esme! |
01:25:14 |
You...! |
01:25:15 |
Get off! You pig! |
01:25:18 |
(sobbing) |
01:25:21 |
How could you be such a fool? |
01:25:24 |
Can't you see |
01:25:33 |
(Angel crying) |
01:25:39 |
- It's alright. |
01:25:50 |
He's gone. |
01:25:53 |
- Gone? What do you mean? |
01:25:55 |
- With Marvell. |
01:25:58 |
- To the races? Hunting? |
01:26:01 |
- I don't think so. |
01:26:07 |
- What did he say? |
01:26:09 |
- Nothing. He wouldn't talk. |
01:26:32 |
- You alright, sir? |
01:27:02 |
- Oh, my darling! |
01:27:05 |
You came back! |
01:27:08 |
Nora said you'd be gone forever, |
01:27:13 |
You won't ever leave me again, |
01:27:17 |
- No. |
01:27:20 |
- And look what came for you |
01:27:41 |
(liquid gurgling) |
01:28:14 |
(door opening and closing) |
01:28:15 |
(dog barking) |
01:28:17 |
- Sultan! |
01:28:18 |
What's the matter? |
01:28:22 |
Hey...? |
01:28:47 |
(gasping) |
01:28:49 |
(screaming) |
01:29:09 |
- "... and when our bodies... |
01:29:12 |
"still burning |
01:29:16 |
"of star-crossed lovers |
01:29:19 |
"were at last sundered, |
01:29:23 |
"Esme lifted my heavy hair |
01:29:27 |
"and whispered, |
01:29:28 |
"like voluptuous caresses, |
01:29:32 |
"these fatal words... |
01:29:43 |
"'May this infinite love |
01:29:46 |
"'join us body and soul |
01:29:50 |
"'even beyond death... |
01:29:55 |
"'... and may our hearts |
01:30:03 |
- Thank you, Miss Deverell. |
01:30:06 |
Grant Esme eternal peace. |
01:30:08 |
Let us reflect upon psalm 39, |
01:30:19 |
(Angel crying) |
01:30:28 |
(sobbing) |
01:31:44 |
- Thank you. |
01:31:47 |
- Ah, so this will be a whole |
01:31:51 |
- Yes, absolutely. |
01:31:53 |
I think his work deserves |
01:31:56 |
And I think the public |
01:31:59 |
for this kind |
01:32:01 |
- Restricted palette? |
01:32:04 |
- Uh, no... |
01:32:05 |
n-not at all. |
01:32:07 |
I simply mean painting |
01:32:09 |
In this case, |
01:32:11 |
- Ah, yes. |
01:32:13 |
Poor Esme never liked painting |
01:32:17 |
He much preferred scenes... |
01:32:20 |
in pubs or factories. |
01:32:25 |
- For the time |
01:32:28 |
he was completely happy. |
01:32:29 |
That is my one consolation |
01:32:34 |
- And how... |
01:32:36 |
- A heart attack. |
01:32:38 |
- It must've been |
01:32:40 |
having his sister here with you. |
01:32:43 |
- So unlike her brother. |
01:32:47 |
But then she always has been. |
01:33:07 |
What is this flower called? |
01:33:10 |
- Uh... I'm afraid |
01:33:12 |
I... I've never known |
01:33:16 |
- Esme would've known. |
01:33:21 |
- Ah! |
01:33:22 |
Here is Esme's dictionary |
01:33:26 |
His favourite book - |
01:33:28 |
Oh! |
01:33:32 |
Thank you. |
01:33:37 |
- Here's the flower. |
01:33:39 |
- Sorry? |
01:33:43 |
- Go! Leave! |
01:33:44 |
- Um, we... |
01:33:46 |
to photograph the canvas? |
01:33:48 |
- Leave this house! Go now! |
01:33:59 |
- "... nor could you and I |
01:34:01 |
"as ecstatically happy together |
01:34:05 |
Don't try |
01:34:07 |
I don't understand. |
01:34:10 |
It makes no sense. |
01:34:12 |
- Unless he lied to me. |
01:34:15 |
Unless he came back from France, |
01:34:19 |
Came back to England, |
01:34:23 |
Is that what happened? |
01:34:24 |
- Listen, |
01:34:26 |
I'm sure of it. |
01:34:27 |
That's just some old letter |
01:34:30 |
Look - it's not even signed. |
01:34:32 |
- Then why does it say "leave"? |
01:34:35 |
Those are the words: |
01:34:39 |
Meaning there was more than one. |
01:34:43 |
- Esme did not come home |
01:34:46 |
It's absurd. |
01:34:49 |
- Your brother lied to me. |
01:34:52 |
I give everything |
01:34:54 |
and he deceives me. |
01:34:56 |
- Angel, you've got to remember |
01:35:00 |
how much Esme loved you. |
01:35:01 |
And it's only |
01:35:03 |
that you will see |
01:35:06 |
completely wrong. |
01:35:07 |
But then that's what |
01:35:10 |
You're his sister, |
01:35:12 |
you're two of a kind. |
01:35:14 |
And you've both done very well |
01:35:17 |
Out of living off my money, |
01:35:20 |
off my success, |
01:35:22 |
out of living here in my house! |
01:35:24 |
- Angel, don't. |
01:35:32 |
Go on, |
01:35:33 |
tell me. |
01:35:37 |
Tell me. |
01:35:43 |
- You want the truth? |
01:35:46 |
- Yes. |
01:35:51 |
- Alright, then - I knew. |
01:35:54 |
But, Angel, I wanted |
01:35:57 |
I know how much |
01:35:59 |
and I also knew |
01:36:03 |
Perhaps that was wrong of me. |
01:36:08 |
Esme did have a mistress, yes. |
01:36:12 |
And he came home on leave |
01:36:15 |
to visit her in London. |
01:36:19 |
And the money he asked you for |
01:36:24 |
It was to keep her... |
01:36:28 |
... and her child. |
01:36:31 |
Until she got married. |
01:36:35 |
And he never got over it. |
01:36:52 |
- Wait for me here, Marvell. |
01:37:03 |
(knocking) |
01:37:08 |
- She's just coming. |
01:37:36 |
- Do you recognize Paradise? |
01:37:40 |
- Paradise...? |
01:37:42 |
- That's right - |
01:37:45 |
A long time before you did. |
01:37:53 |
- You're Angelica? |
01:37:55 |
- Yes. |
01:37:58 |
I drew that when I was little. |
01:38:02 |
Miss Deverell, I'm so happy |
01:38:06 |
I've always been |
01:38:08 |
In fact, I think I've read |
01:38:12 |
But please do sit down. |
01:38:15 |
- No, thank you. |
01:38:25 |
- How strange it is to meet now, |
01:38:28 |
have crossed before. |
01:38:34 |
- I did so love your aunt. |
01:38:37 |
She took such good care of me. |
01:38:39 |
And dear Esme |
01:38:43 |
I was so happy |
01:38:45 |
and found his feet again. |
01:38:47 |
- He... he talked about me? |
01:38:49 |
- Well, of course. |
01:38:51 |
We'd known each other |
01:38:54 |
and I was a kind of confidante |
01:38:58 |
But you knew that, naturally. |
01:39:03 |
- Of course. |
01:39:07 |
- His death came |
01:39:09 |
He was so young, |
01:39:11 |
and there were so many |
01:39:13 |
he might've achieved. |
01:39:26 |
- I brought you |
01:39:43 |
- Thank you. |
01:39:44 |
I'm very touched. |
01:40:04 |
- I should go. |
01:40:10 |
- You're sure you won't... |
01:41:00 |
- You're alright, ma'am? |
01:42:10 |
- Angel?! |
01:42:12 |
What are you doing? |
01:42:14 |
The doctor said to rest. |
01:42:16 |
- I was lonely. |
01:42:19 |
- Oh, come on. |
01:42:21 |
Get this 'round you, |
01:42:26 |
Then you're having a cup of tea |
01:42:31 |
(cats meowing) |
01:42:34 |
- Where's Silky Boy? |
01:42:36 |
- Why? Isn't he here? |
01:42:37 |
- I can't see him. |
01:42:40 |
- He's probably outside |
01:42:41 |
He's chopping wood. |
01:42:46 |
- He can't be outside |
01:42:51 |
- He'll soon be mewing |
01:42:57 |
- But you know |
01:43:01 |
- Angel? |
01:43:08 |
Angel! |
01:43:12 |
- Silky Boy? Silky Boy? |
01:43:15 |
- Angel! |
01:43:16 |
- Silky Boy, where are you? |
01:43:20 |
- Are you completely mad? |
01:43:29 |
Go back up into your room. |
01:43:30 |
I'll tell Marvell |
01:43:35 |
- I knew something terrible |
01:43:39 |
I've known it all day. |
01:43:44 |
(meowing) |
01:43:52 |
(meowing) |
01:44:03 |
(panting) |
01:44:13 |
(meowing) |
01:44:21 |
Hello. |
01:44:24 |
Don't worry, Silky Boy. |
01:44:26 |
Mummy's here now. |
01:44:32 |
It's so cold outside. |
01:44:35 |
You mustn't worry. |
01:44:37 |
I won't leave you outside again. |
01:44:53 |
- Thank you, Marvell. |
01:44:59 |
(gasping) |
01:45:04 |
(wheezing) |
01:45:08 |
- Where am I? |
01:45:10 |
Where am I? |
01:45:12 |
- You're here with me. |
01:45:17 |
- The grocery. |
01:45:19 |
Not the grocery! |
01:45:21 |
- No, of course |
01:45:24 |
You're in Paradise House |
01:45:27 |
- Nora... I can't see! My eyes! |
01:45:30 |
I can't see! |
01:45:31 |
- Just go to sleep. |
01:45:35 |
- Nora... |
01:45:44 |
Do you think... |
01:45:46 |
if I had had a baby... |
01:45:51 |
... that Esme... |
01:45:53 |
would still be alive? |
01:45:55 |
- Of course not. |
01:45:57 |
Don't say such foolish things. |
01:46:00 |
- Nora? |
01:46:08 |
Do you think |
01:46:14 |
Do you think |
01:46:18 |
None of it... was real? |
01:46:21 |
- No. |
01:46:25 |
No, my sweet Angel. |
01:46:27 |
Of course it was real. |
01:46:29 |
Your life has been magnificent. |
01:46:34 |
You live in Paradise House, |
01:46:36 |
and you're a very great writer. |
01:46:38 |
And you were passionately, |
01:46:49 |
- The only person... |
01:46:51 |
who ever really loved me, |
01:46:54 |
Nora, |
01:46:55 |
was you. |
01:47:02 |
(Nora crying quietly) |
01:47:04 |
I am Angel Deverell. |
01:47:11 |
- Please... please! |
01:47:13 |
Angel? Angel! |
01:47:16 |
No! No! No! |
01:47:20 |
(crying and screaming) |
01:47:25 |
Please... No! |
01:47:35 |
(sobbing) |
01:48:00 |
- Nora, tell me. |
01:48:02 |
What will you do now? |
01:48:03 |
- I don't know. |
01:48:07 |
I've had offers for Paradise. |
01:48:10 |
There's talk of turning it |
01:48:13 |
showing the paintings. |
01:48:15 |
- Well, that would please Angel. |
01:48:17 |
She always believed in him. |
01:48:19 |
- Hmm, perhaps. |
01:48:22 |
But all of her books - |
01:48:24 |
who cares about them now? |
01:48:28 |
- Fashion changes, |
01:48:30 |
and time can be cruel. |
01:48:34 |
- I'd always imagined her lying |
01:48:40 |
Speeches and crowds filing past. |
01:48:45 |
- Why don't you write |
01:48:48 |
You knew her so well, Nora. |
01:48:50 |
Not just her work, |
01:48:53 |
- Her life? Which life? |
01:48:56 |
The life she lived, |
01:48:58 |
or the life she dreamed? |
