00:02:59 Maman!
00:03:09 Cecile, darling.
00:03:11 Cecile, do you remember Madame de Merteuil?
00:03:18 Why, yes, of course.
00:03:23 What a beautiful young lady.
00:03:26 The last time I saw you,
00:03:33 Madame, is it true that I'm getting married?
00:03:37 Who told you that?
00:03:40 Everybody's been talking about it.
00:03:43 I'm not supposed to say anything...
00:03:47 ...but yes, it's true.
00:03:52 -Please, Madame, please.
00:04:00 Your mother's been so secretive about it.
00:04:03 But can you try and find out, please?
00:04:12 It's really sweet to see Cecile
00:04:18 Yes, she's excited, very excited.
00:04:21 -lt almost has me worried.
00:04:24 She's been at that convent since she was 11.
00:04:30 She's so innocent, so unprepared.
00:04:34 As long as her husband doesn't mind.
00:04:37 On the contrary.
00:04:41 Who is he?
00:04:43 It was he who suggested
00:04:48 That's very thoughtful. I like this in a man.
00:04:51 Who is he?
00:04:54 I'd rather not say.
00:04:56 I agreed to let him make the announcement.
00:04:59 I see.
00:05:02 My dear,
00:05:05 She could learn so much from you.
00:05:08 I want her to enter this marriage
00:05:14 ...and as wise as you are.
00:05:17 You flatter me.
00:05:57 Cecile.
00:06:00 Do you see how I hold my fan?
00:06:08 Yes.
00:06:12 -Vicomte.
00:06:21 Mademoiselle.
00:06:27 Won't you introduce me
00:06:30 Cecile, if you allow your hand
00:06:34 ...men will take it as an encouragement.
00:06:40 Is this your first opera, mademoiselle?
00:06:44 Should I answer?
00:06:49 If you do answer...
00:06:52 ...a man will take it as an invitation.
00:06:54 If you don't,
00:07:02 So what should I do?
00:07:05 What do you want to do?
00:07:11 Yes, this is my first opera.
00:07:14 -I've never been to one before.
00:07:18 Monsieur de Valmont,
00:07:29 That young lady is the daughter of my cousin...
00:07:33 ...Madame de Volanges.
00:07:36 She's about to get married,
00:07:40 So you keep away from her.
00:07:43 How old did you say she was?
00:07:46 Fifteen, you monster.
00:07:48 I just wanted to let you know
00:07:53 Where are you going?
00:07:54 Do you really want to know?
00:07:56 If you want to tell me.
00:07:59 I'm going to visit my old aunt.
00:08:01 Your old aunt.
00:08:04 My old aunt, yes.
00:08:07 How old is your old aunt?
00:08:11 You know her, Madame de Rosemonde.
00:08:14 Madame de Rosemonde is still alive?
00:08:17 So if you get bored with playing chaperon,
00:08:22 And if you come, I'll be very happy.
00:08:24 Very happy.
00:08:30 Give my love to Madame de Rosemonde.
00:08:44 Who was that?
00:08:46 Cecile, that man is very bad
00:08:51 Your mother shouldn't even know
00:08:56 Is he your lover?
00:08:59 Cecile...
00:09:03 One doesn't ask questions like that.
00:09:07 Certainly not of a widow.
00:09:10 Widows don't have lovers?
00:09:13 No, they don't.
00:09:39 More.
00:09:41 More?
00:09:44 I want more.
00:09:47 Then...
00:09:48 ...you might have to find yourself another lover.
00:09:53 No.
00:09:57 I'm very happy with the one I have.
00:10:02 You're not bored yet?
00:10:06 Unspeakably bored.
00:10:11 When shall I see you again?
00:10:15 Monday?
00:10:18 Monday. I can't.
00:10:24 -Tuesday?
00:10:28 I'm afraid not.
00:10:31 Wednesday?
00:10:40 I'll have to let you know.
00:10:46 Are you seeing somebody else?
00:10:49 Of course not.
00:11:10 Good afternoon, Madame.
00:11:46 No, it's A in the right hand, not B-flat.
00:12:01 -Madame!
00:12:11 This is...
00:12:14 I'm sorry.
00:12:17 -Chevalier de Danceny.
00:12:19 He's giving me my music lessons.
00:12:21 -Nervous?
00:12:24 Don't be silly. Everyone will love your singing.
00:12:34 That's not it.
00:12:39 It's my husband, my fiance.
00:12:42 I know he's going to be there.
00:12:51 Can you try and find out who he is?
00:12:55 Please?
00:13:20 My dear.
00:13:23 Cecile is so nervous. Poor thing.
00:13:26 She believes that her fiance is here today. Is he?
00:13:30 See? How does she know that? She's so clever.
00:13:33 -I never told her anything.
00:13:36 -You'll keep it to yourself?
00:13:38 Come. I'll introduce you, but...
00:13:43 Why is he so secretive?
00:13:47 I think he has a mistress,
00:13:50 I heard she's a little...
00:13:52 I understand.
00:13:57 Monsieur de Gercourt, may I introduce you
00:14:03 You two know one another?
00:14:11 Do we?
00:14:15 If you remember that we do, madame...
00:14:17 ...then your memory must be better than mine.
00:14:23 Then I suppose that we don't.
00:14:34 You couldn't have made a better choice, my dear.
00:14:40 "A knight riding through the glade
00:14:44 "Chanced on a pretty maid
00:14:47 "And as the sunlight played
00:14:49 "He wooed the pretty lady
00:14:54 "'Sir, go thy way,' the maiden replied
00:14:58 "'My lord came today to make me his bride
00:15:05 "'There are others, other roses
00:15:08 "'Leave me to my lord and go'
00:15:16 "Now, he did not believe it true
00:15:21 "Swore he would win the maid
00:15:24 "But her lord came and slew
00:15:27 "Both knight and pretty lady
00:15:31 "Friends, though your rose be so fair..."
00:15:36 She's so adorable.
00:15:38 I can't even feel jealous.
00:15:42 I wish you all the happiness in the world.
00:15:47 Thank you.
00:15:52 Lovely.
00:16:13 Is she...
00:16:15 Just resting, sir. Just resting.
00:16:18 -Shall I...
00:16:23 Let's take it out.
00:17:40 Is it my turn?
00:17:43 Do you remember me?
00:17:47 Of course I remember you.
00:17:50 -Just jog my memory a little.
00:17:57 Of course you are, my dear.
00:17:59 -I just arrived.
00:18:07 Where is my table?
00:18:14 Where is everybody?
00:18:23 Sir.
00:18:26 There she is.
00:18:36 Give me a push.
00:19:06 May I invite you for a ride?
00:19:09 No, you may not.
00:19:11 -Why not?
00:19:13 Neither can I.
00:19:15 No. My husband, he would
00:19:18 -Where is your husband, madame?
00:19:21 -You live in Rouen?
00:19:24 My husband is a judge
00:19:28 Do you love your husband, madame?
00:19:31 Yes, I love him very much.
00:19:34 -So why aren't you with him?
00:19:37 Besides, when my husband works on
00:19:42 -Does he often work on important cases?
00:19:48 -Then you must be an exceptional woman.
00:19:54 -Not exceptional. Why?
00:19:57 -Are you married, Monsieur de Valmont?
00:20:03 I'm in love.
00:20:04 -You're in love.
00:20:07 -Then why aren't you with her?
00:20:12 I'm talking to her right now.
00:20:18 -You shouldn't have said that.
00:20:22 No, as long as the feeling's
00:20:26 Does that mean you don't love me?
00:20:30 Of course I don't love you.
00:20:43 Don't do that!
00:20:47 Monsieur de Valmont!
00:20:51 Monsieur de Valmont, please!
00:21:09 Don't do that. You frightened me.
00:21:12 What does it matter if I drown?
00:21:16 Look, sometimes my friends
00:21:20 I'm not so silly that I don't see what you want.
00:21:24 Yes? What do I want?
00:21:29 If you don't stop talking that way,
00:21:31 All I want is to be near you...
00:21:34 ...and to hear you telling me over and over
00:21:38 No.
00:21:41 No, I'm not clever enough to talk to you.
00:21:49 Help!
00:21:52 Help me!
00:22:06 Help me!
00:22:18 Help! Help!
00:22:42 Vicomte.
00:22:46 What happened?
00:22:48 An accident.
00:22:51 So you did come.
00:22:54 Thank you, Azolan. I won't be needing you.
00:22:56 Yes, he will.
00:22:58 Prepare his traveling clothes and pack the rest.
00:23:02 -We're going to Paris.
00:23:05 Wait.
00:23:08 -Why?
00:23:10 ...very much.
00:23:15 You may go.
00:23:22 What is it?
00:23:26 You remember my little cousin
00:23:31 Yes.
00:23:33 -You remember she's getting married?
00:23:37 Guess to whom.
00:23:41 How could I guess?
00:23:45 Monsieur de Gercourt.
00:23:58 Where do I fit in?
00:24:02 You're the only one who can help me.
00:24:04 Do you want me to challenge him to a duel?
00:24:12 Vicomte, for what I have in mind...
00:24:15 ...I need you very much alive.
00:24:19 You know, little Cecile...
00:24:21 She reminds me so much of myself
00:24:30 She's naive, innocent...
00:24:37 ...pure.
00:24:44 Yes?
00:24:47 I want you to put an end to it.
00:24:50 I want you to take her virginity.
00:25:00 I want Gercourt to discover
00:25:04 ...that he didn't get there first.
00:25:08 I want to make him the laughingstock of Paris.
00:25:18 You want me to seduce a little girl...
00:25:22 ...who's seen nothing...
00:25:24 ...who knows nothing...
00:25:26 ...who'll probably flop on her back
00:25:30 You don't need me for that. Anyone can do that.
00:25:36 But I thought you liked her.
00:25:40 Besides, I can't go to Paris now.
00:25:45 -Why?
00:25:50 And you hear the birds singing.
00:25:58 Who is she?
00:26:09 May I change the subject, madame?
00:26:12 Change anything you want, my dear.
00:26:15 Do you love your husband?
00:26:23 Yes.
00:26:27 Yes, I love him very much.
00:26:30 Then why are you here?
00:26:33 Why aren't you with him?
00:26:37 I'm afraid the Marquise and I share
00:26:42 Seems that Madame de Tourvel's husband
00:26:48 Men always say they prefer to be alone,
00:26:52 So, I go where he goes.
00:26:55 -Out of love?
00:27:00 Fear, maybe?
00:27:02 Fear? Of what?
00:27:06 -That you might be tempted.
00:27:11 Shush, my love.
00:27:15 Are you hinting
00:27:18 Not now, but, if you were alone...
00:27:22 Monsieur de Valmont,
00:27:27 You're right.
00:27:29 If a woman wants a little adventure,
00:27:33 She can manage it perfectly well
00:27:39 Isn't that true, madame?
00:27:43 That's not at all what I meant, madame.
00:27:49 Monsieur de Valmont,
00:27:54 ...but...
00:27:56 ...believe me,
00:27:59 Nonsense!
00:28:00 A true woman is a contradiction in terms.
00:28:06 Not always.
00:28:08 I believe that some women stay true.
00:28:13 I find them fascinating.
00:28:17 Men usually do.
00:28:20 I've noticed that.
00:28:23 Why is that?
00:28:26 Because men are always
00:28:30 They want us to be angels.
00:28:33 But in bed, they want us to be demons, my dear.
00:28:37 Yes, indeed.
00:28:38 But there always comes that morning surprise...
00:28:43 ...when you wake up in the arms
00:28:48 Do you agree, Vicomte?
00:28:52 I believed that for a long time.
00:28:55 -And you don't anymore?
00:28:57 It seems to me, Vicomte,
00:29:02 ...and another in the country.
00:29:05 Maybe I believe one thing when I'm in love
00:29:09 There's something
00:29:14 If you had your choice of all the ladies present...
00:29:18 ...in whose arms would you spend the night?
00:29:24 No. That's not fair to Monsieur de Valmont.
00:29:27 The question is...
00:29:29 ...which one of you ladies
00:29:42 We all would?
00:29:45 Not me.
00:29:47 Not me.
00:29:57 I don't think the question is worth answering.
00:30:03 I suppose that just leaves me.
00:30:19 -Good night.
00:30:32 Valmont...
00:30:34 You disappoint me.
00:30:37 That's what's keeping you here? Tell me.
00:30:41 Are you really falling in love?
00:30:44 Would that make you jealous?
00:30:47 Not really.
00:30:50 -Why not?
00:30:54 -I don't think so.
00:30:58 What do you want to wager?
00:31:02 Anything you want.
00:31:06 You.
00:31:09 Your body.
00:31:11 And if you lose?
00:31:15 Anything you want.
00:31:20 I want you to...
00:31:23 ...shut yourself in a monastery,
00:31:29 ...and repent for all your sins.
00:31:33 I accept.
00:31:36 Good night, my little monk.
00:31:41 I'm afraid you'll be very lonely.
00:31:45 Remember me in your prayers sometime.
00:32:12 You know, I keep thinking about
00:32:17 I said so many things.
00:32:21 It had to do with your husband's nose.
00:32:26 And I thought you weren't interested.
00:32:42 Where have you been?
00:32:45 -Why? What happened?
00:32:47 -lt's Cecile.
00:32:50 Come.
00:32:57 Did I show you the cabinet I gave Cecile?
00:33:02 It's an exquisite piece.
00:33:06 I told her,
00:33:12 Do you know what she said?
00:33:15 "Maman, you know it will never be locked."
00:33:22 Isn't that the sweetest thing
00:33:28 Yes.
00:33:30 It's locked.
00:33:32 -I have a duplicate key, of course.
00:33:36 So I looked inside.
00:33:38 Do you know what I found?
00:33:41 Letters. Love letters.
00:33:45 -From...
00:33:50 -That little boy?
00:33:54 What did you do?
00:34:00 I didn't do anything.
00:34:03 Cecile doesn't even know I've read the letters.
00:34:07 I don't want her to know I have a key.
00:34:11 -Does her fiance know about this?
00:34:17 Why don't I talk to her
00:34:21 Yes?
00:34:26 Cecile.
00:34:28 Madame! Where have you been?
00:34:31 How beautiful you look!
00:34:34 Thank you.
00:34:37 We must go to the opera again sometime.
00:34:40 I'd love to. It was so wonderful to see all that.
00:34:45 And those chandeliers and the music.
00:34:48 You should ask your music teacher
00:34:52 I'll do that.
00:34:55 You happy with your music teacher?
00:34:57 He's a wonderful teacher, and...
00:35:03 Yes?
00:35:07 I can't tell you.
00:35:11 Cecile...
00:35:14 ...if we're to be friends...
00:35:16 ...we must trust each other completely.
00:35:21 He's been writing me letters.
00:35:24 Has he?
00:35:27 He writes so beautifully, madame.
00:35:31 What does he say?
00:35:34 I don't know, really.
00:35:36 He has all these feelings.
00:35:38 He's sad.
00:35:41 He has longings.
00:35:43 Do you love him, Cecile?
00:35:45 No, I don't.
00:35:50 So, should I answer him?
00:35:52 If you don't love him...
00:35:55 ...it would be very wrong to encourage him.
00:36:02 But, madame, I lied.
00:36:05 I lied to you. I do love him. I'm so in love.
00:36:14 I don't want to marry my husband, madame.
00:36:18 He's old, and he's ugly.
00:36:22 I love Danceny.
00:36:25 Please, madame, help me.
00:36:31 Let's write Danceny a letter.
00:36:36 I've already written him one.
00:36:39 May I see it?
00:37:41 You're not telling him
00:37:47 Get your pen.
00:38:02 -What do you call him?
00:38:06 Dear Chevalier...
00:38:18 Your love gives me the courage
00:38:23 I long to meet you somewhere...
00:38:27 ...where we can finally be alone.
00:38:33 Our biggest obstacle is my mother.
00:38:44 -So?
00:38:47 Do you think so?
00:38:49 You won't believe
00:38:52 Really?
00:38:54 For example, do you know how
00:38:58 -How?
00:39:02 ...Cecile shouldn't know that I told you.
00:39:05 My dear.
00:39:08 They put them in the strings of the harp.
00:39:14 "Pity the fate of a fair young maiden
00:39:17 "Searching the meadows and woods in fear
00:39:21 "Useless for her to expend all her efforts
00:39:24 "Or to flee when a shepherd draws near
00:39:28 "If at night, as she turns to go home
00:39:31 "He who has watched her will then appear

00:39:45 "I'm a great wizard, a wizard am I
00:39:48 "I'm a great wizard, a wizard am l"
00:39:58 When you practice, mademoiselle,
00:40:02 It's...
00:40:06 One-two-three.
00:40:09 Your rhythm's quavering a bit.
00:40:11 You have to try and keep it steady.
00:40:24 Your daughter's a wonderful student, madame.
00:40:27 Take the cover off, Emile.
00:40:34 Why, maman?
00:40:48 What is this?
00:40:55 What is this?
00:41:01 I don't know.
00:41:03 It's a letter, madame.
00:41:06 It's a letter I wrote to your daughter.
00:41:08 She doesn't know anything about it.
00:41:13 I'm glad to hear that, at least.
00:41:18 Will you wait for me here, young man?
00:41:39 Come.
00:41:47 Sit down.
00:42:02 Now tell me the truth.
00:42:05 You knew about the letter, didn't you?
00:42:09 No, I didn't. I swear I didn't know.
00:42:12 -ls this the first letter he wrote to you?
00:42:15 So why are you locking your cabinet?
00:42:20 Is it locked?
00:42:22 Give me the key.
00:42:26 I don't know where it is.
00:42:31 It's hanging round your neck.
00:42:40 I'm sorry, maman.
00:42:43 Forgive me. Please. I'm sorry.
00:42:46 Please, maman, forgive me.
00:43:01 Madame...
00:43:02 Young man, you have abused my hospitality...
00:43:05 ...and you have abused
00:43:08 You will never be admitted to this house again.
00:43:11 Here are the letters you had the audacity
00:43:16 I want you to send me the letters
00:43:20 -You may go.
00:43:23 I don't want to have to call my footman.
00:43:26 Madame, I just want you to know that
00:43:30 ...and I will never give back
00:43:34 In them, she opened her heart to me, not to you.
00:43:37 I won't betray her confidence.
00:43:38 Her trust means more to me than all your anger.
00:43:41 Good-bye.
00:43:58 No!
00:44:15 Chevalier!
00:44:18 Do you remember me?
00:44:21 I have a letter for you from Cecile.
00:44:23 My dear Cecile...
00:44:36 ...to be alone with you is my greatest desire.
00:44:43 And Madame de Merteuil...
00:44:46 ...has devised a plan for us to meet.
00:44:51 She will explain all the details to you.
00:44:55 I'll invite you and your mother to the opera.
00:44:58 But maman has forbidden me
00:45:03 Precisely.
00:45:06 Which is why you will decline my invitation...
00:45:09 ...like a good girl...
00:45:12 ...so that your mother suspects nothing.
00:45:16 Do you understand?
00:45:19 Yes.
00:45:20 Then, when your mother and I...
00:45:24 ...are just about to leave for the opera...
00:45:26 ...I want you to run in and say...
00:45:28 Maman!
00:45:30 Maman, may I come with you?
00:45:33 Please? I promise... Maman.
00:45:36 Let me come with you! Please!
00:45:39 Please?
00:45:43 My angel, don't think I don't love you,
00:45:48 ...so stop acting like a silly child
00:47:50 So, here's your dress.
00:47:54 Let's change first.
00:47:55 Why?
00:47:57 Because you want to look beautiful, don't you?
00:48:05 You want me to change into this?
00:48:08 Madame de Merteuil had it made
00:48:11 Really?
00:48:26 Who lives here?
00:48:28 No one.
00:48:47 Take a sip, mademoiselle.
00:50:09 Madame de Merteuil has such exquisite taste.
00:50:15 But my legs show.
00:50:17 They look nice.
00:50:30 Mademoiselle, you look ravishing!
00:51:27 Mademoiselle, do you realize
00:51:32 Yes.
00:51:42 Please read it now.
00:52:07 Chevalier, this is a poem.
00:52:11 No. It's a song you know.
00:52:36 You stay. Stay.
00:52:39 -What's the matter?
00:52:42 I keep thinking about Cecile.
00:52:44 It just broke my heart to see her so miserable.
00:52:46 I must go home. You stay.
00:52:58 "Love
00:52:59 "If you will come to me
00:53:03 "I will be true to thee
00:53:05 "Two lovers true are we..."
00:53:08 No. You're making the same mistake again.
00:53:10 It's A in the right hand, not B-flat.
00:53:17 Is this a long song, Chevalier?
00:53:19 It's another 12 verses.
00:53:33 So?
00:53:40 What a nincompoop!
00:53:41 "Love
00:53:42 "Flowers bloom in my heart..."
00:53:45 Sorry to interrupt. Cecile has to go.
00:53:48 Cecile, get dressed.
00:53:50 -Why?
00:53:53 -Your mother is on her way home.
00:53:56 -Don't panic, but we must hurry.
00:53:59 -How much can we trust your maid?
00:54:01 Your mother will question her.
00:54:03 -Yes?
00:54:08 -ls this true?
00:54:12 Is it?
00:54:15 I think it is.
00:54:18 Will you help us, please?
00:54:20 Is this any time to discuss marriage?
00:54:27 Cecile!
00:54:30 -Martine!
00:54:34 Where is Cecile?
00:54:36 Cecile?
00:54:37 She's...
00:54:40 ...she has...
00:54:43 Where is she?
00:55:16 Have you been at your post all night?
00:55:19 Yes, madame.
00:55:20 -Has anyone come in?
00:55:24 Martine.
00:55:31 Yes, madame?
00:55:37 Did she go and see that music teacher?
00:55:41 I don't know, madame.
00:55:45 She only talks to Madame de Merteuil now.
00:55:48 And she...
00:55:51 She...
00:55:52 Emile.
00:56:07 Maman. Forgive me, please, maman. Please.
00:56:10 I wanted to be with you so much!
00:56:14 My dear, don't be harsh with her.
00:56:19 -Maman.
00:56:21 Of course I forgive you.
00:56:25 Maman! Please, maman. I'm sorry.
00:56:29 Please forgive me. Please!
00:56:33 Maybe...
00:56:35 ...I just don't understand her.
00:56:40 Do you think she's ready to be married?
00:56:45 Of course she is.
00:56:49 I even thought...
00:56:51 ...of sending her back to the convent.
00:56:55 No.
00:56:58 No.
00:57:01 I would just get her out of Paris for a while.
00:57:06 If you like, I could take her to the country.
00:57:24 It isn't easy to find you.
00:57:28 I have a surprise for you.
00:57:30 Monsieur de Valmont...
00:57:32 ...I must talk to you.
00:57:34 -I know a place. Give me your hand.
00:57:36 No.
00:57:42 Why didn't you ever tell me?
00:57:47 -What?
00:57:52 -What are you talking about?
00:57:56 I'm a brilliant archer?
00:57:58 You'll see. Come on.
00:58:16 Azolan.
00:58:18 What are you waiting for?
00:58:34 Good boys.
00:58:38 Here, sir.
00:58:40 -But I've never shot an arrow in my life.
00:58:45 ...and your other hand here.
00:58:55 There.
00:58:57 -Ready?
00:58:57 Now let go.
00:59:12 What a shot!
00:59:14 I knew I was right.
00:59:17 You are a brilliant archer.
00:59:23 Now, if you were to take this coin...
00:59:27 ...and throw it in that bush,
01:00:13 -May I read you something?
01:00:18 This letter is from a close friend of mine.
01:00:24 "All his life,
01:00:28 "...a consummate master of the art of seduction.
01:00:31 "Hundreds of women,
01:00:34 "...have paid for it.
01:00:36 "He has charmed his countless victims...
01:00:38 "...designing his every gesture,
01:00:42 "...in a cold-blooded scheme...
01:00:44 "...that has only one squalid end:
01:00:47 "to destroy the woman's honor."
01:00:51 Is this true?
01:00:56 Who wrote that?
01:00:59 Is it?
01:01:10 Monsieur de Valmont,
01:01:14 I am not, and I never will be, one of those women.
01:01:19 I know that.
01:01:23 So, why do you keep trying?
01:01:29 I don't even know.
01:01:54 Vicomte.
01:01:57 Can we offer you a ride?
01:02:02 Look who I brought with me.
01:02:07 -You remember my little cousin.
01:02:14 Would you like to join us?
01:02:28 Attaque!
01:02:30 En garde.
01:02:32 Attaque!
01:02:33 En garde.
01:02:35 Attaque.
01:02:37 En garde.
01:02:46 Next.
01:03:03 Next.
01:04:00 -What's your name, young man?
01:04:04 Good wrist.
01:04:08 I don't, sir.
01:04:18 Next.
01:04:30 Such a pity that he doesn't have any children.
01:04:34 Children just adore my nephew.
01:04:37 I'm not a child!
01:04:39 Of course not. You're a knight defending
01:04:43 Attaque!
01:04:52 Madame?
01:04:54 You've known Monsieur de Valmont
01:04:58 Yes. A long time.
01:05:05 What kind of man is he?
01:05:07 He's...
01:05:12 If I had a brother,
01:05:22 Do you think a man can change?
01:05:28 How old are you?
01:05:34 May I offer you some advice?
01:05:37 Yes.
01:05:41 I think you should leave this place, madame.
01:05:45 I think you should go and join your husband.
01:05:50 Why do you say that?
01:05:54 Are you in love with Monsieur de Valmont?
01:05:58 No, certainly not.
01:06:05 That's good.
01:06:08 Sorry. I'm sorry.
01:06:13 Because he's in love with you, you know?
01:06:18 I'm dying.
01:06:19 I'm dying. Forgive me my sins. Have mercy!
01:06:29 -I'm dying. Forgive me!
01:06:32 I won!
01:09:47 Good night, my dears.
01:09:49 -Good night.
01:09:58 I don't recognize you. Just look at her.
01:10:02 How can you resist this?
01:10:05 Please don't start that again.
01:10:08 How's it going with the little Tourvel?
01:10:15 Would you like to cancel our bet?
01:10:17 Certainly not.
01:10:20 -Aren't you getting a little too serious?
01:10:24 About love, my angel.
01:10:29 What else?
01:10:32 I have to write a letter to Danceny.
01:10:34 It's all right.
01:10:37 It's all right. You don't have
01:10:41 He's our friend.
01:10:44 Would you come and read it after I finish
01:10:48 Why don't you ask Monsieur de Valmont?
01:10:52 He knows what men like to hear.
01:10:56 Would you, monsieur?
01:10:58 Of course he will. Now go up, start your letter.
01:11:02 -He'll be right up to help you.
01:11:13 You never stop, do you?
01:11:21 All I'm asking is that
01:11:51 Monsieur de Valmont.
01:11:54 -May I talk to you for a moment, please?
01:12:18 Come in.
01:12:19 -Sit down, please.
01:12:23 -Yes?
01:12:29 I would never tell you what to do...
01:12:33 ...but...
01:12:36 Please...
01:12:37 Go away.
01:12:39 Please, go away.
01:12:41 I know I should be the one to leave.
01:12:44 I know it's my duty, but I haven't the strength.
01:12:47 I can't go on like this.
01:12:49 When I sit down, you sit next to me.
01:12:54 I blush in your company, and everybody sees it.
01:12:58 But, when...
01:13:01 When I am alone...
01:13:08 Please, go away. I beg you.
01:13:11 Please.
01:13:13 Please go.
01:13:20 Is that what you want?
01:13:25 Do you want me to say...
01:13:28 ...that I don't want you to leave?
01:13:31 I can't say that. I can't!
01:13:33 No!
01:14:03 All right. Let's see what you have.
01:14:14 No.
01:14:17 This is no way to write a love letter.
01:14:22 Take a new sheet.
01:14:29 Dear madame...
01:14:35 Monsieur le Chevalier.
01:14:44 Did I err in giving you my heart?
01:14:48 -"Err" with double "R"?
01:14:57 Why do I feel...
01:15:00 ...now that I'm not with you...
01:15:04 ...that I love you...
01:15:06 ...even more?
01:15:11 Why am I haunted by your face...
01:15:16 ...my every waking minute...
01:15:20 ...and every dreaming minute...
01:15:24 ...of my nights?
01:15:34 Did I say to stop writing?
01:15:36 No.
01:15:38 So go on.
01:15:41 Ever since I've known you,
01:15:47 I know that you love me...
01:15:51 ...and I pray your love will last.
01:15:56 If we had another moment alone...
01:16:00 ...I know you would take me in your arms...
01:16:04 ...and I long to be with you.
01:16:12 I long to be with you.
01:16:16 Are you deaf?
01:16:19 No.
01:16:20 So keep writing.
01:16:30 I long to share...
01:16:34 ...all those sweet moments.
01:16:37 Now...
01:16:40 ...I only dream of them.
01:16:44 And the longer I'm without you...
01:16:49 ...the more vivid my dreams become.
01:16:56 I only hope...
01:16:58 ...that you think of me...
01:17:03 ...with the same passion that I feel for you.
01:17:14 Do you have a better way to say it?
01:17:19 No.
01:17:21 So?
01:17:35 One day...
01:17:38 ...we'll be together...
01:17:40 ...and we'll know the joys of love.
01:17:45 And no man...
01:17:48 ...no...
01:17:51 ...god...
01:17:53 ...can prevent this.
01:17:59 I must stop writing now.
01:18:06 I close my eyes...
01:18:09 ...and you are here with me.
01:18:12 The castle is quiet...
01:18:15 ...and I'm so happy.
01:18:18 I love you.
01:18:20 I love you.
01:19:14 My God. What happened?
01:19:18 Something awful happened, madame.
01:19:22 Something...
01:19:25 What?
01:19:26 I don't even know. It all happened...
01:19:29 Monsieur de Valmont wanted me to write...
01:19:34 ...so I was writing that letter.
01:19:36 And?
01:19:42 You know.
01:19:51 Monsieur de Valmont is quite a writer, isn't he?
01:19:58 Believe me, madame.
01:20:01 I kept saying no.
01:20:04 But I kept doing what he wanted me to do.
01:20:07 But I don't love him, madame.
01:20:10 Really, I don't.
01:20:15 There were moments when...
01:20:17 ...I felt like I did.
01:20:20 If my mother should find out about this.
01:20:26 Cecile.
01:20:33 You're not a little girl anymore.
01:20:36 Yes.
01:20:38 Your mother must never know about this.
01:20:42 But she wants me to marry Monsieur de Gercourt.
01:20:44 So?
01:20:47 You marry Monsieur de Gercourt.
01:20:52 But I love Danceny.
01:20:57 Danceny will be your lover.
01:21:01 You will marry Gercourt...
01:21:04 ...and you will keep Danceny as your lover.
01:21:11 Do you understand?
01:21:13 No.
01:21:15 You don't marry your lover.
01:21:18 You don't?
01:21:25 I'm sorry.
01:21:28 I must seem very stupid to you, madame.
01:21:30 No.
01:21:35 You're the first person that...
01:21:40 No one's ever talked to me
01:21:45 I love you, Cecile.
01:21:48 I love you, too, madame.
01:22:05 Did you like what you did
01:22:16 Then you have nothing to worry about, Cecile.
01:22:42 Good morning, madame.
01:22:48 Where is everybody?
01:22:51 Why is everybody late this morning?
01:22:54 Do you remember me?
01:22:57 Madame de Volanges.
01:22:59 I know.
01:23:01 I've come from Paris.
01:23:04 Why?
01:23:07 I've come to take my daughter home.
01:23:09 You know. Cecile.
01:23:12 She's such a little darling. We all adore her.
01:23:40 Yes?
01:23:52 Cecile!
01:23:54 Maman.
01:23:58 Good morning, ladies.
01:24:02 Madame, what an enchanting surprise.
01:24:06 Marquise.
01:24:11 Mademoiselle, let us see your hands.
01:24:18 Do you call those clean?
01:24:21 Go on. Quickly.
01:24:23 We're all so in love with your daughter.
01:24:29 -You must be very proud.
01:24:34 I would hesitate
01:24:39 -I beg your pardon?
01:24:44 I think I know what is best
01:24:49 But can't you see that she's
01:24:51 Are you...
01:24:53 -Are you talking about that harp teacher?
01:24:57 Are you suggesting that
01:25:01 Exactly.
01:25:03 Are you losing your mind?
01:25:06 You can't build a lasting marriage...
01:25:08 ...on the fancies of a 15-year-old girl.
01:25:11 Why not?
01:25:13 Look around you.
01:25:15 Look at all the tragedies caused
01:25:19 It's just as tragic when a mother
01:25:23 Vicomte, you know nothing
01:25:27 You've never even been married.
01:25:30 Those bonds are often very strong.
01:25:33 And you'd be surprised.
01:25:38 My sweet girl.
01:25:40 If I understand what
01:25:44 ...you have a dilemma.
01:25:50 -I do?
01:25:54 ...would you rather marry that Monsieur de...
01:26:02 -Gercourt.
01:26:03 Or the other one...
01:26:05 ...the one with the harp?
01:26:12 I'd do whatever maman wants me to do.
01:26:21 But that's not what my aunt is asking you.
01:26:23 If you had the choice, who would you pick?
01:26:31 I guess I would marry Monsieur de Gercourt...
01:26:39 ...and keep Monsieur de Danceny for a lover?
01:26:44 And maman will have
01:26:50 So the dilemma is solved.
01:26:53 Let us eat.
01:26:54 Are we not going to wait for Madame de Tourvel?
01:26:56 Madame who? Yes, of course.
01:27:01 She went back to Paris this morning.
01:27:03 I don't even know why.
01:27:06 It was all very unexpected...
01:27:08 ...and she was in such a state.
01:27:12 I had difficulty going back to sleep
01:27:27 What did he say?
01:27:32 I don't know! I'm deaf in this one.
01:28:22 Don't tell anyone I'm back.
01:29:32 Sleep.
01:29:35 Sleep on.
01:29:37 Let me just stay here and look at you.
01:29:46 Night after night,
01:29:54 -Would you rather I was quiet?
01:30:04 Do you want me to bring you some milk?
01:30:07 A glass of wine?
01:30:10 What do you want? Tell me.
01:30:18 Your horse is in the stable.
01:30:22 Say something.
01:30:24 Anything. I want to hear your voice.
01:30:31 When does your husband come back?
01:30:37 It doesn't matter anymore.
01:30:42 I wrote him a letter while you were sleeping.
01:30:46 I told him everything.
01:30:49 -May I see the letter?
01:30:56 No. Don't move.
01:30:57 I'll prepare something for you.
01:31:02 I'll wait on you.
01:31:04 I want to serve you.
01:32:22 "My dear...
01:32:24 "...I feel so much tenderness toward you...
01:32:27 "...that I cannot bear to face
01:32:31 "You were right.
01:32:33 "For a few illusory moments,
01:32:37 "I know now I cannot.
01:32:39 "I urge you to find another lover...
01:32:43 "...one who is worthy of you...
01:32:45 "...and I thank you for what you have given me."
01:32:57 Vicomte!
01:33:01 I didn't even have a chance to thank you
01:33:05 -My pleasure.
01:33:08 Mine.
01:33:14 Marquise.
01:33:16 You lost your bet.
01:33:21 No.
01:33:23 Yes.
01:33:30 I'm very impressed.
01:33:34 How was it?
01:33:38 Quite wonderful.
01:33:40 Better than Cecile?
01:33:42 Yes.
01:33:44 Better than me?
01:33:47 No one compares to you.
01:33:52 How true.
01:33:55 In fact, I couldn't wait to claim my reward.
01:33:58 -What reward?
01:34:02 -Valmont, that was just a joke.
01:34:06 Please!
01:34:09 Would you have locked yourself in
01:34:13 -But I didn't lose.
01:34:14 lf. That's not even a question.
01:34:17 Yes, it is. Imagine that you lost.
01:34:19 -But I won.
01:34:20 Don't try to change the subject.
01:34:23 And am I something that one wins as a wager?
01:34:26 Yes! Because you accepted it.
01:34:27 I know. You won, but if you did lose...
01:34:30 -But I didn't!
01:34:32 What are you going on about? I won,
01:34:46 Now you sound just like a husband.
01:34:54 Do you want to know why I never remarried?
01:34:59 So that no one could ever claim
01:35:06 You are confusing bets and marriages, madame.
01:35:10 One must always honor a bet.
01:36:08 You don't want me?
01:36:14 You had your chance.
01:36:20 Yes?
01:36:30 Thank you, Victoire.
01:36:45 I'm sorry, but you'll have to leave now.
01:36:51 Show me the letter.
01:36:57 -Vicomte.
01:37:01 Certainly.
01:37:12 Here.
01:37:20 Is this a declaration of war?
01:37:24 If you wish.
01:38:07 -Monsieur de Valmont?
01:38:09 I'm Chevalier de Danceny.
01:38:13 Sir, I'm infinitely grateful to you
01:38:22 Would you be kind enough to forward my reply?
01:38:26 It's extremely important that
01:38:29 I'll deliver it myself.
01:38:33 Monsieur de Valmont.
01:38:35 Shall I announce you?
01:38:38 I'll announce myself.
01:39:06 -Who's there?
01:39:29 He says he wants to die for me.
01:39:32 Sounds as if he loves you.
01:39:34 He's asking me if he should challenge
01:39:38 Do you still love him?
01:39:43 Believe me, sir, I've been trying not to love him.
01:39:47 I pray to God all the time to make me forget him.
01:39:52 But since I pray all the time...
01:39:53 ...I think about him all the time.
01:39:56 Then you only have one choice.
01:39:59 What?
01:40:02 -We have to write Danceny another letter.
01:40:09 But...
01:40:12 We will only write, won't we, sir?
01:40:15 Yes.
01:40:17 Yes, we'll only write.
01:40:22 Thank you.
01:40:37 I believe that the only way
01:40:43 ...is for us to run away together now.
01:40:47 It is?
01:40:48 Yes, it is.
01:40:55 But the prospect of a life in a foreign country...
01:41:00 ...frightens me.
01:41:02 Yes, it does.
01:41:10 -Who is it?
01:41:13 I have someone with me.
01:41:16 I won't disturb you for long.
01:41:20 Just a minute, maman.
01:41:24 It's lovely of you to do this.
01:41:25 I've discussed
01:41:30 ...but I left the final announcement to you,
01:41:33 Yes, maman.
01:41:41 Mademoiselle.
01:41:47 I hope this small token will please you.
01:41:51 Thank you.
01:41:55 -May I open it?
01:42:03 It's beautiful!
01:42:06 Thank you. Look, maman.
01:42:09 You will be pleased to know that our marriage...
01:42:11 ...will be celebrated in the royal chapel,
01:42:22 Ladies, this has been a pleasure.
01:42:25 Thank you, my dear.
01:42:48 Did you hear that about the King?
01:42:51 So is this the end of Danceny?
01:42:57 No.
01:43:01 I suppose I should be firm with myself now...
01:43:05 ...shouldn't I?
01:43:09 You should.
01:43:21 Where were we?
01:43:23 "But the prospect of a life
01:43:27 On the other hand...
01:43:29 "Madame de Merteuil thinks
01:43:32 "...and keep you as a lover.
01:43:35 "Do you think this is good advice,
01:43:40 What is it?
01:43:42 Thank you, sir.
01:43:44 I couldn't thank you enough.
01:43:59 -Yes?
01:44:05 Show him into the salon.
01:44:33 Chevalier.
01:44:34 I was just thinking about you.
01:44:38 I want to send a letter to Cecile, madame.
01:44:42 By all means.
01:44:45 No, madame. You sit down.
01:44:48 You will write, and I will dictate.
01:44:52 It will be your letter to Cecile.
01:44:55 My letter?
01:44:57 Interesting. We never tried that.
01:45:08 I'm ready.
01:45:10 My dear Cecile.
01:45:19 I must apologize for the advice I gave you.
01:45:25 Young man...
01:45:26 ...that's not my style, to apologize.
01:45:38 Keep writing.
01:45:54 If you truly love your Danceny...
01:45:58 ...as much as I believe you do...
01:46:02 ...then it would be a crime to marry anyone else.
01:46:07 That's good.
01:46:09 That's good, but...
01:46:15 May I ask you a question?
01:46:18 Yes.
01:46:22 How old are you?
01:46:25 I'm 17.
01:46:29 Why do you want to be a husband...
01:46:33 ...when you can be a lover?
01:46:40 Keep writing.
01:46:46 Why don't you leave all the boredom
01:46:49 ...and keep the excitement of love for yourself?
01:46:53 -Keep writing, I said.
01:46:56 But...
01:46:59 Do you really believe yourself
01:47:07 What?
01:47:09 Sir, come here quick and look out the window.
01:47:34 I made it very clear that you weren't home,
01:47:42 What do you want me to do?
01:48:15 Why did you come?
01:48:18 What do you think you'll find here?
01:48:25 That you love me.
01:48:29 Do you want me to lie to you?
01:48:35 Yes.
01:49:53 Where is she?
01:49:58 She left.
01:50:01 She woke me up. It was still dark.
01:50:06 -Did she say anything?
01:50:13 I'm not at home to anyone.
01:50:15 It's Monsieur de Valmont.
01:50:19 Show him into the salon.
01:50:56 You must have a lot of courage, Vicomte...
01:51:02 ...to come here after you sent that...
01:51:03 ...lunatic harp teacher to kill me.
01:51:09 I apologize for that.
01:51:17 It was a silly thing to do.
01:51:24 I feel awful.
01:51:29 Are you surprised?
01:51:35 You are an awful man.
01:51:41 Do you think a man can change?
01:51:45 Yes.
01:51:49 For the worse.
01:51:54 I think you're as awful as I am.
01:51:59 I am.
01:52:01 That's why we should never be enemies.
01:52:07 We should always be friends...
01:52:11 ...good friends.
01:52:14 -More than that.
01:52:21 Even more.
01:52:24 You're not proposing marriage?
01:52:27 What if I were?
01:52:32 But that's wonderful.
01:52:38 Wonderful.
01:52:42 Tell me.
01:52:45 Which of us
01:52:56 I'm sorry.
01:53:10 I've missed you so much.
01:53:19 I still love you, you know?
01:53:40 Isn't it lonely when there's no one
01:53:46 Yes, it is.
01:53:47 Would you like to share my latest secret?
01:53:51 Yes.
01:53:54 Come.
01:54:25 I've explained to Monsieur de Danceny...
01:54:27 ...that Cecile lost her virginity in your arms...
01:54:32 ...but he didn't believe me.
01:54:33 So since you happen to be here...
01:54:36 ...would you mind telling him about it yourself?
01:55:27 I want that.
01:55:30 -But the same money...
01:55:34 Yes, sir.
01:55:43 I'm sorry, monsieur. Madame de Volanges...
01:55:46 -What?
01:55:49 Strict orders.
01:55:51 No.
01:55:53 No, monsieur, seriously.
01:56:48 -Who is it?
01:57:13 We're leaving now.
01:57:15 We have to go now, right now.
01:57:18 Nobody must recognize you.
01:57:22 You understand?
01:57:26 And Danceny is already waiting.
01:57:29 He's in the country. It's very far.
01:57:31 -We have to go now, right now.
01:57:35 Yes, he is.
01:57:38 No, he's not.
01:57:41 Vicomte.
01:57:46 I thought it was time that Cecile knew the truth.
01:57:54 Monsieur de Valmont,
01:58:47 Monsieur de Valmont?
01:58:50 I am Baron de Segur,
01:58:55 Chevalier de Danceny expects you
01:59:03 We are his witnesses.
01:59:10 I'll meet him there.
02:00:00 You!
02:00:05 Yes, you.
02:00:07 And him.
02:00:08 Him!
02:00:10 And him!
02:00:42 Sit!
02:00:47 Sit!
02:00:53 Good boy.
02:01:02 Sir.
02:01:05 Sir, are you sure you feel up to a duel?
02:01:35 Sir.
02:02:19 Gentlemen.
02:02:22 Sir, where are your witnesses?
02:02:28 Monsieur le Duc, will you step up, please?
02:02:32 Monsieur le Baron.
02:02:37 Hurry up. Come on, don't be afraid.
02:02:40 Hurry up.
02:02:45 Sir.
02:02:48 It would be embarrassing
02:02:52 So what do we do, send for our harps?
02:02:58 If you offer me your apology,
02:03:00 My apology?
02:03:02 You want my apology?
02:03:05 After everything I've done for you...
02:03:10 ...you will forgive me.
02:03:14 You...
02:03:16 ...defend yourself.
02:03:19 Madame.
02:05:23 Madame, can I tell you a secret?
02:05:41 A secret that I haven't told anyone yet.
02:05:44 Yes, my child.
02:05:52 I think I'm pregnant.
02:05:59 I'm quite sure that I am.
02:06:05 Is it...
02:06:11 ...Valmont's?
02:06:28 My angel.
02:06:35 My sweet angel.
