1 00:00:08,359 --> 00:00:11,192 Your son is arrived from London. 2 00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:18,871 - Father... - John... 3 00:00:20,479 --> 00:00:27,476 You will see in my will the estate of Norland was left to me in a way - 4 00:00:27,639 --> 00:00:33,635 - That prevents me from dividing it between my two families. 5 00:00:33,799 --> 00:00:41,592 Norland, in its entirety, is therefore yours by law. 6 00:00:41,759 --> 00:00:47,550 And I am happy for you and Fanny. 7 00:00:48,879 --> 00:00:55,671 But your stepmother, my wife and daughters are left only 500 a year. 8 00:00:55,839 --> 00:01:00,515 Barely enough to live on. Nothing for the girls' dowries. 9 00:01:01,879 --> 00:01:07,272 - You must help them. - Of course. 10 00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:10,795 You must promise to do this. 11 00:01:12,279 --> 00:01:17,228 I promise, Father. I promise. 12 00:01:17,999 --> 00:01:20,797 Help them? What do you mean? 13 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:28,229 I mean to give them 3,000. The interest will be an extra income. 14 00:01:28,399 --> 00:01:34,952 - The gift will fulfil my promise. - Without question. More than amply. 15 00:01:35,119 --> 00:01:40,955 One had rather. On such occasions. do too much than too little. 16 00:01:41,119 --> 00:01:45,431 Of course, he did not stipulate a particular sum. 17 00:01:47,879 --> 00:01:50,439 What do you say to 1,500, then? 18 00:01:50,599 --> 00:01:55,912 What brother would be so kind to his real sisters. Let alone half-blood? 19 00:01:56,079 --> 00:02:01,949 - They can hardly expect more. - What can you afford? 20 00:02:05,199 --> 00:02:11,593 100 a year to their mother is better than losing 1,500 at once. 21 00:02:11,759 --> 00:02:17,595 Should she live longer than 15 years we'd be completely taken in. 22 00:02:17,759 --> 00:02:22,230 People live forever when an annuity is to be paid them. 23 00:02:23,759 --> 00:02:28,435 20 now and then will amply discharge my promise, you're right. 24 00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:34,151 I'm convinced that your father had no idea of giving them money. 25 00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:39,632 - They will have 500 a year. - What more could they want for? 26 00:02:39,799 --> 00:02:45,396 No housekeeping, carriage, horses, few servants, keeping no company... 27 00:02:45,559 --> 00:02:47,789 How comfortable! 28 00:02:47,959 --> 00:02:52,669 They will be much more able to give you something. 29 00:03:13,439 --> 00:03:16,511 Marianne. can you play something else? 30 00:03:16,679 --> 00:03:21,036 Mamma has been weeping since breakfast. 31 00:03:29,159 --> 00:03:31,957 I meant something less mournful. 32 00:03:34,239 --> 00:03:40,075 A visitor in my own home! It is not to be borne. Elinor. 33 00:03:40,239 --> 00:03:45,552 - Mamma, we have nowhere to go. - John and Fanny will be here soon. 34 00:03:45,719 --> 00:03:50,110 Do you expect me to be here to welcome them? Vultures! 35 00:04:02,399 --> 00:04:07,519 I will start making inquiries for a new house at once. 36 00:04:07,679 --> 00:04:11,957 Until then, we must try to bear their coming. 37 00:04:13,959 --> 00:04:19,591 Margaret, are you there? Come down, John and Fanny will be here soon. 38 00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:25,995 Why are they to live at Norland? They have a house in London. 39 00:04:26,159 --> 00:04:33,429 Houses go from father to son, not father to daughter. It is the law. 40 00:04:34,439 --> 00:04:40,435 - Come, we'll play with your atlas. - It's not mine. It's their atlas. 41 00:04:46,439 --> 00:04:49,476 Do sit down. 42 00:04:49,639 --> 00:04:57,068 We are looking for a new home, and can only retain Thomas and Betsy. 43 00:04:57,239 --> 00:05:00,788 We're sorry to have to leave you all. 44 00:05:00,959 --> 00:05:06,955 But we are certain you will find the new Mrs. Dashwood a fair mistress. 45 00:05:07,119 --> 00:05:12,432 My only real concern is how long it will take them to move out. 46 00:05:33,399 --> 00:05:38,234 - How is Mrs. Ferrars? - She is always in good health. 47 00:05:38,399 --> 00:05:43,109 My brother is with her this season. Quite the most popular bachelor. 48 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,554 He has his own barouche. 49 00:05:49,079 --> 00:05:55,154 - You have two brothers? - Yes. Edward is the elder. 50 00:05:55,319 --> 00:05:59,471 He's travelling up from Plymouth and will break his journey here. 51 00:06:03,599 --> 00:06:09,117 - If that is agreeable to you. - Dear John... 52 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,396 This is your home now. 53 00:06:14,719 --> 00:06:21,067 - Fanny wants the key to the silver. - What does Fanny want with it? 54 00:06:21,239 --> 00:06:25,869 One can presume she wants to count it. What are you doing? 55 00:06:26,039 --> 00:06:32,638 Gifts for the servants. Where is Margaret? She's taken to hiding. 56 00:06:32,799 --> 00:06:39,238 - At least she can escape Fanny. - You've not said a word to her. 57 00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:43,756 I have. I've said yes and no. 58 00:06:56,639 --> 00:06:59,790 Good morning, Fanny. 59 00:07:01,079 --> 00:07:03,877 Good morning, Miss Marianne. 60 00:07:04,039 --> 00:07:08,555 How did you find the silver? Was it all genuine? 61 00:07:08,719 --> 00:07:14,237 - When may we expect your brother? - Edward is due tomorrow. 62 00:07:14,399 --> 00:07:21,510 He will not stay long. Will Margaret give up her room for him? 63 00:07:21,679 --> 00:07:27,788 The view is incomparable, and I want him to see Norland at its best. 64 00:07:48,879 --> 00:07:53,236 Mrs. Dashwood. Miss Dashwood. Miss Marianne. 65 00:07:53,399 --> 00:07:56,630 My brother, Edward Ferrars. 66 00:07:57,599 --> 00:08:00,716 Do sit down. 67 00:08:02,399 --> 00:08:08,031 Where is Miss Margaret? I'm beginning to doubt of her existence. 68 00:08:08,199 --> 00:08:13,831 Forgive us, Mr. Ferrars. My youngest is shy of strangers at present. 69 00:08:13,999 --> 00:08:21,314 I am shy of strangers myself, and I have nothing like her excuse. 70 00:08:21,479 --> 00:08:25,597 How do you like your view, Mr. Ferrars? 71 00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:32,391 Very much. Your stables are handsome and beautifully kept. 72 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,790 Stables? Your windows overlook the lake. 73 00:08:35,959 --> 00:08:41,989 An error led me to a family room, but I've rectified the situation. 74 00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:46,675 I am happily installed in the guest quarters. 75 00:08:46,839 --> 00:08:49,512 Tea! 76 00:08:50,159 --> 00:08:56,348 They're all spoilt. Miss Margaret is always up trees and under furniture. 77 00:08:56,519 --> 00:08:59,989 I've barely had a civil word from Marianne. 78 00:09:00,159 --> 00:09:06,473 They've just lost their father. Their lives will never be the same. 79 00:09:06,639 --> 00:09:09,790 That is no excuse. 80 00:09:12,039 --> 00:09:14,155 Library. 81 00:09:17,159 --> 00:09:22,631 - These are mostly foreign. - Indeed. Magnificent. 82 00:09:22,799 --> 00:09:26,428 I've never liked the smell of books. 83 00:09:26,599 --> 00:09:32,151 The dust, perhaps. I hear you have great plans for the walnut grove. 84 00:09:32,319 --> 00:09:37,074 I shall have it knocked down to make place for a Grecian temple. 85 00:09:37,239 --> 00:09:42,632 That does sound interesting. Would you show me the site? 86 00:09:47,919 --> 00:09:54,028 Too expensive, and we do not need four bedrooms. We can share. 87 00:09:54,199 --> 00:09:56,349 This one. Then. 88 00:09:56,519 --> 00:10:00,034 We have only 500 a year. 89 00:10:00,199 --> 00:10:03,271 I'll send out more inquiries today. 90 00:10:06,879 --> 00:10:13,637 Pardon my intrusion, but I think I have found what you're looking for. 91 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,677 Won't you come out? We haven't seen you all day. 92 00:10:26,839 --> 00:10:34,757 We'll have to enlarge it. Mattocks will help you adjust to our hours. 93 00:10:35,999 --> 00:10:44,668 Forgive me, do you by any chance have a reliable atlas? 94 00:10:44,839 --> 00:10:49,754 - I believe so. - I must check the Nile's position. 95 00:10:49,919 --> 00:10:54,151 My sister tells me it is in South America. 96 00:10:54,319 --> 00:11:00,792 No! No, she's quite wrong. 97 00:11:00,959 --> 00:11:04,952 I believe it is in Belgium. 98 00:11:05,119 --> 00:11:09,032 Surely not. You must be thinking of the Volga. 99 00:11:09,199 --> 00:11:14,273 - The Volga, which starts in... - In Vladivostok. And ends in... 100 00:11:14,439 --> 00:11:18,318 - Wimbledon. - Yes. Where coffee beans come from. 101 00:11:18,479 --> 00:11:21,949 The source of the Nile is in Abyssinia. 102 00:11:22,119 --> 00:11:26,635 Is it? Interesting. 103 00:11:26,799 --> 00:11:32,431 - How do you do? Edward Ferrars. - Margaret Dashwood. 104 00:11:32,599 --> 00:11:37,673 It adjoins this property, and would be a desirable addition. 105 00:11:37,839 --> 00:11:43,038 - I'll ride there and speak to... - Gibson. 106 00:11:43,199 --> 00:11:50,116 - He'll be pleased enough to sell. - He'll want more than it is worth. 107 00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:21,433 Have I hurt you? 108 00:13:20,879 --> 00:13:24,315 Thank you. Forgive me. 109 00:13:25,119 --> 00:13:28,156 That was my father's favourite. 110 00:13:31,039 --> 00:13:36,557 Thank you for helping Margaret. She's changed since you came. 111 00:13:36,719 --> 00:13:39,597 I enjoy her company. 112 00:13:39,759 --> 00:13:43,798 - Has she shown you the tree house? - Not yet. 113 00:13:43,959 --> 00:13:48,908 Would you do me the honour, Miss Dashwood? 114 00:13:49,079 --> 00:13:53,436 - It is very fine out. - With pleasure. 115 00:13:55,039 --> 00:14:00,159 - Margaret always wanted to travel. - I know. She's off to China soon. 116 00:14:00,319 --> 00:14:06,076 I'm to go as her servant, on the understanding I'll be badly treated. 117 00:14:06,239 --> 00:14:12,508 - What will your duties be? - Sword fighting and swabbing. 118 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,318 Which will take precedence? 119 00:14:24,119 --> 00:14:28,954 All I have ever wanted is the quiet of a private life. 120 00:14:29,119 --> 00:14:33,909 But my mother is determined to see me distinguished. 121 00:14:34,079 --> 00:14:40,996 Orator. Politician. Even a barrister would do. If I drove a barouche. 122 00:14:41,159 --> 00:14:43,992 What do you wish for? 123 00:14:44,159 --> 00:14:48,755 I prefer the church, but that is not smart enough for my mother. 124 00:14:48,919 --> 00:14:53,356 She prefers the army, but that is too smart for me. 125 00:14:53,519 --> 00:14:57,273 - Would you stay in London? - I hate London. 126 00:14:57,439 --> 00:15:02,593 Country living is my ideal. A small parish where I might do some good. 127 00:15:02,759 --> 00:15:06,752 Keep chickens... Give very short sermons. 128 00:15:10,839 --> 00:15:15,196 You feel idle and useless. Imagine how that is compounded - 129 00:15:15,359 --> 00:15:20,911 - When one has no choice of any occupation whatsoever. 130 00:15:22,239 --> 00:15:26,118 Our circumstances are therefore precisely the same. 131 00:15:26,279 --> 00:15:29,874 Except that you will inherit your fortune. 132 00:15:31,599 --> 00:15:35,592 We cannot even earn ours. 133 00:15:35,759 --> 00:15:41,356 Perhaps Margaret is right. Piracy is our only option. 134 00:15:43,199 --> 00:15:46,430 What is swabbing exactly? 135 00:15:47,119 --> 00:15:51,317 "No voice divine the storm allayed. No light propitious shone." 136 00:15:51,479 --> 00:15:56,758 'When snatched from all effectual aid, we perished, each alone." 137 00:15:56,919 --> 00:16:02,073 "But I, beneath a rougher sea, and whelmed in deeper gulfs than he..." 138 00:16:02,239 --> 00:16:04,230 No. Edward. 139 00:16:04,399 --> 00:16:08,756 "No voice divine the storm allayed. No light propitious shone." 140 00:16:08,919 --> 00:16:13,310 'When snatched from all effectual aid, we perished, each alone." 141 00:16:13,479 --> 00:16:18,234 Can you not feel his despair? Try again. 142 00:16:23,239 --> 00:16:29,348 "No voice divine the storm allayed. No light propitious shone." 143 00:16:29,519 --> 00:16:34,798 'When snatched from all effectual aid, we perished, each alone." 144 00:16:37,719 --> 00:16:40,870 Mamma... 145 00:16:42,159 --> 00:16:46,789 Look. This has just arrived. 146 00:16:46,959 --> 00:16:52,158 "I should be pleased to offer you a home at Barton Cottage, as soon..." 147 00:16:52,319 --> 00:16:56,517 - It's from Sir John Middleton. - Even Elinor must approve the rent. 148 00:16:56,679 --> 00:17:00,877 - Has she not yet seen this? - No. I will fetch her. 149 00:17:01,039 --> 00:17:04,031 Wait, let us delay. 150 00:17:04,199 --> 00:17:09,990 I believe that Edward and Elinor have formed an attachment. 151 00:17:10,159 --> 00:17:15,074 It would be cruel to take her away so soon. Devonshire is so far. 152 00:17:15,239 --> 00:17:20,597 - Do you disapprove her choice? - By no means. 153 00:17:20,759 --> 00:17:25,389 - Edward is very amiable. - Amiable? But...? 154 00:17:25,559 --> 00:17:30,872 There is something wanting. He is too sedate. His reading... 155 00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:34,270 Elinor has not your feelings. 156 00:17:34,439 --> 00:17:40,514 Can he love her? Can the soul be satisfied with polite affections? 157 00:17:40,679 --> 00:17:45,309 To love is to be on fire. Like Juliet. Guinevere. Heloise. 158 00:17:45,479 --> 00:17:50,997 - They made rather pathetic ends. - Pathetic? To die for love? 159 00:17:51,159 --> 00:17:55,949 - What could be more glorious? - Your romantic sensibilities... 160 00:18:02,519 --> 00:18:09,391 "Is love a fancy or a feeling? No, it is immortal as immaculate truth." 161 00:18:09,559 --> 00:18:13,518 "'Tis not a blossom shed when youth drops from life's stem." 162 00:18:13,679 --> 00:18:20,915 "It grows without water, nor ray of promise cheats the pensive gloom." 163 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,827 A pity Edward has no passion for reading. 164 00:18:25,999 --> 00:18:31,995 You asked him to read. then you made him nervous. 165 00:18:32,159 --> 00:18:38,837 Your behaviour is cordial. You like him in spite of his reading. 166 00:18:38,999 --> 00:18:45,871 I think him everything that is amiable and worthy. 167 00:18:46,039 --> 00:18:48,837 Praise. Indeed. 168 00:18:48,999 --> 00:18:53,948 He shall have my devotion when you tell me he is to be my brother. 169 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,397 - What shall I do without you? - Without me? 170 00:18:58,559 --> 00:19:04,395 I'm sure you will be very happy, but promise you won't live far away. 171 00:19:04,559 --> 00:19:11,317 - There is no question of... - Do you love him? 172 00:19:13,159 --> 00:19:19,348 I do not deny that I think very highly of him. That I... 173 00:19:20,079 --> 00:19:24,834 ...greatly esteem him. I like him. 174 00:19:24,999 --> 00:19:32,030 Esteem? Like? Use these words again and I shall leave the room! 175 00:19:32,199 --> 00:19:37,990 Believe my feelings to be stronger. Further than that. Do not believe. 176 00:19:39,559 --> 00:19:42,631 Is love a fancy or a feeling? 177 00:19:42,799 --> 00:19:46,633 - Or a Ferrars? - Go to bed. 178 00:19:47,799 --> 00:19:52,919 "I do not deny that I think very highly of him." 179 00:19:53,079 --> 00:19:56,674 "That I... greatly esteem him." 180 00:19:58,639 --> 00:20:02,109 "That I like him." 181 00:20:19,639 --> 00:20:24,110 We are so happy that you invited Edward to Norland. 182 00:20:24,279 --> 00:20:27,476 We're all very fond of him. 183 00:20:27,639 --> 00:20:33,953 We have great hopes for him. Mother expects much of him. 184 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:39,955 And in marriage. She's determined both he and Robert will marry well. 185 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,078 But I hope she desires them to marry for love. 186 00:20:44,239 --> 00:20:50,951 The heart doesn't always lead us in the most suitable direction. 187 00:20:51,839 --> 00:20:59,189 Edward is a compassionate person. Penniless women prey on that type. 188 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:06,356 Having entered into an understanding he would never go back on his word. 189 00:21:06,519 --> 00:21:09,716 But it would lead to his ruin. 190 00:21:09,879 --> 00:21:15,397 I'm worried. Mother will withdraw all financial support from him - 191 00:21:15,559 --> 00:21:21,555 - Should he plant affection in less exalted ground than he deserves. 192 00:21:22,919 --> 00:21:26,673 I understand you perfectly. 193 00:21:30,639 --> 00:21:32,630 Devonshire? 194 00:21:32,799 --> 00:21:38,431 My cousin, Sir John Middleton, has offered us a small house. 195 00:21:38,599 --> 00:21:41,159 He must be a man of property. 196 00:21:41,319 --> 00:21:46,393 He's a widower from Barton Park. It is Barton Cottage he has offered. 197 00:21:46,559 --> 00:21:51,314 A cottage? Charming. A cottage is always very snug. 198 00:21:51,479 --> 00:21:55,392 You will not leave before the summer? 199 00:21:55,559 --> 00:22:00,189 We can no longer trespass upon your sister's goodwill. 200 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:04,557 - You will come and stay with us. - I should like that. 201 00:22:04,719 --> 00:22:07,836 Edward has long been expected by our mother. 202 00:22:07,999 --> 00:22:14,347 Come as soon as you can, Edward. Remember, you're always welcome. 203 00:22:39,319 --> 00:22:44,916 - Can't you take him with you? - We can't afford him. 204 00:22:45,079 --> 00:22:50,711 Perhaps he could make himself useful in the kitchen... Forgive me. 205 00:22:54,399 --> 00:22:56,993 Miss Dashwood... 206 00:22:58,799 --> 00:23:03,714 Elinor... I must speak to you. 207 00:23:08,039 --> 00:23:11,952 There is something of great importance that I need to... 208 00:23:13,479 --> 00:23:18,872 ...tell you... about my education. 209 00:23:22,399 --> 00:23:26,108 - Your education? - Yes. 210 00:23:26,279 --> 00:23:32,036 It was conducted. oddly enough, in Plymouth. 211 00:23:33,839 --> 00:23:39,072 - Do you know it? - Plymouth? No. 212 00:23:39,239 --> 00:23:43,471 I was four years there. 213 00:23:43,639 --> 00:23:48,076 In a school run by Mr. Pratt. 214 00:23:51,599 --> 00:23:56,468 - Pratt? - Precisely. Pratt. 215 00:23:56,639 --> 00:23:58,834 While I was there... 216 00:23:59,639 --> 00:24:03,314 That is to say, he had a... has a... 217 00:24:06,839 --> 00:24:10,388 You're needed in London this instant. 218 00:24:10,559 --> 00:24:16,475 - I'm leaving this afternoon. - Mamma wishes you to leave at once. 219 00:24:19,679 --> 00:24:22,796 Excuse me. 220 00:24:51,679 --> 00:24:55,513 Edward promised he would bring the atlas to Barton. 221 00:24:56,799 --> 00:25:01,714 I'll wager he will do so in less than a fortnight. 222 00:25:01,879 --> 00:25:05,030 Dear Edward... 223 00:25:23,999 --> 00:25:27,389 Hello there! 224 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,679 Sir John... 225 00:25:42,799 --> 00:25:48,510 Dear ladies!

Poor souls! 229 00:26:04,399 --> 00:26:07,630 Why did you not come up to the park first? 230 00:26:07,799 --> 00:26:12,554 - We saw you pass. - I made John call the carriage. 231 00:26:12,719 --> 00:26:17,235 - She would not wait. - We have so little company. 232 00:26:17,399 --> 00:26:22,996 I feel as though I know you already. Delightful creatures! 233 00:26:23,159 --> 00:26:28,916 - You'll dine at Barton Park daily. - Dear Sir John. We cannot... 234 00:26:29,079 --> 00:26:35,632 No refusals! I'm quite deaf to them. But I insist! 235 00:26:35,799 --> 00:26:39,474 Let us settle in. But thank you very much. 236 00:27:03,439 --> 00:27:08,638 Send your man up for the carriage as soon as you're ready. Goodbye. 237 00:27:08,799 --> 00:27:13,634 Don't thank us. 238 00:27:30,959 --> 00:27:34,554 Your feet are cold. 239 00:27:58,319 --> 00:28:02,597 What have you been doing? You can grow potatoes in this dirt. 240 00:28:02,759 --> 00:28:07,355 It's cold. I'm cold. 241 00:28:16,319 --> 00:28:20,710 Where can Brandon be? I hope he's not lamed his horse. 242 00:28:20,879 --> 00:28:25,350 Col. Brandon is the most eligible bachelor in the county. 243 00:28:25,519 --> 00:28:31,515 He is bound to go for one of you. He's a better age for Miss Dashwood. 244 00:28:31,679 --> 00:28:36,309 But I dare say she's left her heart behind in Sussex. 245 00:28:36,479 --> 00:28:41,473 I see you, Miss Marianne! I think I've unearthed a secret. 246 00:28:41,639 --> 00:28:45,552 You are worse than my best pointer. 247 00:28:46,839 --> 00:28:52,755 Is he a butcher. Baker. Candlestick maker? I'll winkle it out of you. 248 00:28:52,919 --> 00:28:59,154 - She's good at winkling. - We've none of us any secrets here. 249 00:28:59,319 --> 00:29:03,631 Or if we do. we do not keep them long. 250 00:29:03,799 --> 00:29:08,315 - He's curate of the parish. - Or perhaps a handsome lieutenant. 251 00:29:08,479 --> 00:29:13,394 - Give us a clue. Is he in uniform? - He has no profession. 252 00:29:13,559 --> 00:29:16,676 He's a gentleman? 253 00:29:16,839 --> 00:29:24,075 - You know there is no such person. - There is. His name begins with F. 254 00:29:25,719 --> 00:29:28,836 F? A promising letter. 255 00:29:30,319 --> 00:29:35,598 Foster? Forrest? Fotheringay? Featherty? 256 00:29:35,759 --> 00:29:39,354 - Fortescue? - Fondant? 257 00:29:39,519 --> 00:29:43,717 Might I play your pianoforte? 258 00:29:44,799 --> 00:29:48,155 Yes. Of course. 259 00:29:48,319 --> 00:29:53,234 - We don't stand on ceremony here. - Please forgive... 260 00:29:53,399 --> 00:29:58,189 I cannot remember when we last had a song in the house. 261 00:31:15,679 --> 00:31:20,275 Brandon! Come and meet our beautiful new neighbours. 262 00:31:20,439 --> 00:31:26,036 What a pity you're late. You have not heard our songbird. 263 00:31:26,199 --> 00:31:28,429 A great pity. 264 00:31:28,599 --> 00:31:33,309 This is my good friend Col. Brandon. We served in the East Indies. 265 00:31:33,479 --> 00:31:39,509 - Not a better fellow in the world. - You've been to the East Indies? 266 00:31:39,679 --> 00:31:42,955 - What's it like? - Hot. 267 00:31:43,119 --> 00:31:46,907 The air is full of spices. 268 00:31:48,479 --> 00:31:53,234 Now. Miss Dashwood. it's your turn to entertain us. 269 00:31:53,399 --> 00:31:57,870 And I believe I know what key you will sing in. 270 00:31:58,039 --> 00:32:01,475 F-major... 271 00:32:13,119 --> 00:32:17,590 You have no right to parade your ignorant assumptions... 272 00:32:17,759 --> 00:32:22,310 - You told me. - I told you nothing. 273 00:32:22,479 --> 00:32:26,870 - They'll meet him when he comes. - You don't speak of such things. 274 00:32:27,039 --> 00:32:31,032 - Everyone else was. - Mrs. Jennings is not "everyone". 275 00:32:31,199 --> 00:32:36,114 I like her. She talks about things. We never talk about things. 276 00:32:36,279 --> 00:32:43,754 If you can say nothing appropriate, limit your remarks to the weather. 277 00:32:47,839 --> 00:32:52,151 Surely they have enough reeds for a Moses basket. 278 00:33:27,719 --> 00:33:29,869 You know what they're saying? 279 00:33:30,039 --> 00:33:37,389 Word is, you've developed a taste for certain company. And why not? 280 00:33:37,559 --> 00:33:42,428 A man like you in his prime... She'd be a fortunate young lady. 281 00:33:42,599 --> 00:33:46,956 Marianne Dashwood would no more think of me than of you. 282 00:33:47,119 --> 00:33:53,069 - Don't think of yourself so meanly. - And all the better for her. 283 00:34:18,479 --> 00:34:22,267 Besotted... An excellent match. 284 00:34:22,439 --> 00:34:26,830 - He's rich and she's handsome. - How long have you known him? 285 00:34:26,999 --> 00:34:31,948 As long as I've been here, and I came 15 years back. 286 00:34:32,119 --> 00:34:37,068 His estate is but four miles hence. He and John are very thick. 287 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:42,108 He has no wife and children. He had a tragic history. 288 00:34:43,039 --> 00:34:48,909 He loved a ward to the family. They were not permitted to marry. 289 00:34:49,079 --> 00:34:52,594 - On what grounds? - Eliza was poor. 290 00:34:52,759 --> 00:34:57,958 She was flung out of the house, and he was packed off to the army. 291 00:34:58,119 --> 00:35:02,192 I think he'd have done himself harm if not for John. 292 00:35:02,359 --> 00:35:07,228 - What became of the lady? - She was passed from man to man. 293 00:35:07,399 --> 00:35:10,835 She disappeared from good society. 294 00:35:10,999 --> 00:35:14,878 When Brandon returned from India he searched and searched. - 295 00:35:15,039 --> 00:35:18,156 - Only to find her dying in a poorhouse. 296 00:35:18,319 --> 00:35:24,189 I thought my daughter Charlotte might have cheered him up. 297 00:35:24,359 --> 00:35:30,355 Look at him now! So attentive! 298 00:35:31,759 --> 00:35:36,992 - I should try a little experiment. - Please. Let the colonel alone. 299 00:35:37,159 --> 00:35:40,629 All suitors need a little help. 300 00:35:41,399 --> 00:35:48,714 - We haven't heard you play of late. - You have a superior musician here. 301 00:35:48,879 --> 00:35:56,194 Brandon shares your passion for music. He plays the pianoforte well. 302 00:35:56,359 --> 00:36:02,514 You know as many melancholy tunes as Miss Marianne. 303 00:36:02,679 --> 00:36:07,912 You must play us a duet. Let us see you both side by side. 304 00:36:08,079 --> 00:36:13,153 I do not know any duets. Forgive me, Colonel. 305 00:36:18,519 --> 00:36:24,674 Will we never have peace? The rent is low. But it comes on hard terms. 306 00:36:24,839 --> 00:36:29,515 Mrs. Jennings has nothing to do but marry off everyone else's daughters. 307 00:36:29,679 --> 00:36:32,068 There's a parcel arrived. 308 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,231 Look! 309 00:36:37,639 --> 00:36:43,794 When is a man safe from such wit. if infirmity does not protect him? 310 00:36:43,959 --> 00:36:47,998 If he is infirm. then I am at death's door. 311 00:36:48,159 --> 00:36:54,792 - He complained of rheumatism. - "A slight ache" was his phrase. 312 00:36:58,679 --> 00:37:02,433 Edward said he would bring it himself. 313 00:37:04,079 --> 00:37:11,315 "It gives me great pleasure to restore this atlas to its owner." 314 00:37:11,479 --> 00:37:17,349 "Business prevents my delivering it, which will hurt me more than you." 315 00:37:17,519 --> 00:37:21,956 "Memories of your kindness must sustain me. And I remain - 316 00:37:22,119 --> 00:37:25,270 - Your devoted servant, E.C.

Elinor. - We are not engaged, Mamma. 322 00:38:00,039 --> 00:38:05,909 - But he loves you, dearest. - I am by no means assured of that. 323 00:38:06,079 --> 00:38:12,109 And had he such a preference, there would certainly be obstacles - 324 00:38:12,279 --> 00:38:16,477 - To his marrying a woman of no rank who cannot afford to buy sugar. 325 00:38:16,639 --> 00:38:22,077 - But your heart must tell you... - It is better to use one's head. 326 00:38:30,919 --> 00:38:35,231 - It can't be good for me. - It is. Stop complaining. 327 00:38:35,399 --> 00:38:40,109 - It's giving me a cough. - It is not giving you a cough. 328 00:38:40,279 --> 00:38:44,067 It's lovely.

I felt the bone. And it's sound. 346 00:40:51,399 --> 00:40:56,154 - I cannot begin to thank you. - Do not think of it. 347 00:40:56,319 --> 00:41:00,870 - Will you not be seated? - I'd leave a water mark. 348 00:41:01,039 --> 00:41:07,877 - But permit me to call tomorrow. - We shall look forward to it. 349 00:41:08,039 --> 00:41:11,076 I'll show you out. 350 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,436 Margaret, get the gentleman's hat. 351 00:41:16,559 --> 00:41:22,031 - His name! - To whom are we so much obliged? 352 00:41:22,199 --> 00:41:25,555 John Willoughby of Allenham at your service. 353 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:29,394 John Willoughby of Allenham... 354 00:41:30,559 --> 00:41:33,631 What an impressive gentleman! 355 00:41:33,799 --> 00:41:38,236 He lifted me as if I weighed no more than a dried leaf. 356 00:41:38,399 --> 00:41:43,268 - Tell me if I hurt you. - She feels no pain, Mamma. 357 00:41:43,439 --> 00:41:47,352 Margaret, ask Betsy to make up a cold compress. 358 00:41:47,519 --> 00:41:50,795 Please don't say anything important. 359 00:41:50,959 --> 00:41:56,238 - He expressed himself well. - With decorum and honour. 360 00:41:56,399 --> 00:42:01,678 - And spirit and wit and feeling. - And economy.

I should go out and keep watch. 370 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:06,635 You're looking out for Willoughby. You'll not think of Brandon now. 371 00:43:06,799 --> 00:43:09,313 Come in. 372 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:13,914 Good morning, Brandon. 373 00:43:14,079 --> 00:43:19,551 - How is the invalid? - Thank you so much, Colonel. 374 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:26,192 Why set your cap at Willoughby when you've already made such a conquest? 375 00:43:26,359 --> 00:43:29,351 I'll not set my cap at anyone. 376 00:43:29,519 --> 00:43:34,309 - Lady Allen's nephew? - He visits. For he's to inherit. 377 00:43:35,759 --> 00:43:42,597 He has a pretty estate of his own. Combe Magna in Somerset. 378 00:43:42,759 --> 00:43:48,516 I'd not give him up to a younger sister for tumbling down hills. 379 00:43:50,839 --> 00:43:58,154 The man himself. Come. Brandon. We know when we are not wanted. 380 00:43:58,319 --> 00:44:01,994 Thank you so much for calling. 381 00:44:02,839 --> 00:44:06,195 Marianne. The colonel and Sir John are leaving. 382 00:44:06,359 --> 00:44:09,749 Goodbye. Thank you for the flowers. 383 00:44:20,319 --> 00:44:26,155 - How do you do, Colonel? - How do you do, more like. 384 00:44:42,519 --> 00:44:48,549 - Mr. Willoughby, what a pleasure! - The pleasure is all mine. 385 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:53,747 - Miss Marianne has not caught cold? - You've found out my name. 386 00:44:53,919 --> 00:44:59,357 The area is crawling with my spies. You cannot venture out to nature... 387 00:44:59,519 --> 00:45:04,195 - So nature must be brought to you. - How beautiful. 388 00:45:04,359 --> 00:45:11,151 - These are not from the hothouse. - Mine is not the first offering. 389 00:45:11,319 --> 00:45:17,918 - They come from an obliging field. - I always prefer wild flowers. 390 00:45:18,079 --> 00:45:22,516 - Would you...? - Our gratitude is beyond words. 391 00:45:22,679 --> 00:45:30,313 I've grieved for this Ionely house. Then I heard it was taken. 392 00:45:30,479 --> 00:45:36,475 I felt an interest which nothing can account for but my present delight. 393 00:45:36,639 --> 00:45:39,870 Pray sit, Mr. Willoughby. 394 00:45:40,039 --> 00:45:44,032 Who is reading Shakespeare's sonnets? 395 00:45:45,519 --> 00:45:48,989 - Marianne is reading them out. - And which are your favourites? 396 00:45:49,159 --> 00:45:52,231 Mine is 116. 397 00:45:52,399 --> 00:45:56,392 "Let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediments." 398 00:45:56,559 --> 00:46:00,154 "Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds. - 399 00:46:00,319 --> 00:46:04,278 - Or bends with the remover to remove..." 400 00:46:04,439 --> 00:46:09,035 - How does it continue? - "No. It is an ever fixed mark..." 401 00:46:09,199 --> 00:46:15,149 - "That looks on tempests..." - Is it "tempests"? 402 00:46:16,599 --> 00:46:23,198 It's strange you are reading these. I carry them with me always. 403 00:46:31,559 --> 00:46:35,074 Until tomorrow then... 404 00:46:37,559 --> 00:46:42,508 My pocket sonnets are yours. A talisman against further injury. 405 00:46:42,679 --> 00:46:45,147 Goodbye. Thank you. 406 00:46:50,639 --> 00:46:56,908 Good work. Marianne. You covered Shakespeare, Scott, poetry. 407 00:46:57,079 --> 00:47:03,188 When you know his views on romance, you'll have nothing left to talk of. 408 00:47:03,359 --> 00:47:08,956 I suppose I erred against decorum. I should have talked of the weather. 409 00:47:09,119 --> 00:47:13,351 Mr. Willoughby can be in no doubt of your enthusiasm for him. 410 00:47:13,519 --> 00:47:16,397 Should I hide my regard? 411 00:47:16,559 --> 00:47:22,429 - No. But we know so little of him. - Time does not determine intimacy. 412 00:47:22,599 --> 00:47:27,389 Seven years is too little for some, seven days is enough for others. 413 00:47:27,559 --> 00:47:32,075 - Or seven hours. In this case. - I feel I know him already. 414 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:37,313 Had I more shallow feelings, I could perhaps conceal them as you do. 415 00:47:37,479 --> 00:47:42,030 - I'm sorry... - Don't trouble yourself, Marianne. 416 00:47:44,959 --> 00:47:47,871 I do not understand her. 417 00:48:15,199 --> 00:48:17,952 Marianne... 418 00:48:19,439 --> 00:48:24,593 - Haven't you finished yet? - No. Patience. 419 00:48:35,919 --> 00:48:39,468 You're not going to deny us beef as well as sugar? 420 00:48:39,639 --> 00:48:44,429 - There is nothing under ten pence. - Do you want us to starve? 421 00:48:44,599 --> 00:48:48,478 No. Just not to eat beef. 422 00:49:29,479 --> 00:49:33,677 If my behaviour was improper, I should be sensible of it. 423 00:49:33,839 --> 00:49:39,391 It has caused impertinent remarks. Do you not doubt your discretion? 424 00:49:40,439 --> 00:49:46,833 If Mrs. Jennings' remarks prove impropriety, we are all offending. 425 00:49:46,999 --> 00:49:50,594 Good morning, Colonel. 426 00:49:51,199 --> 00:49:57,274 Miss Dashwood. Miss Marianne. I come to issue an invitation. 427 00:50:00,319 --> 00:50:04,358 A picnic on my estate at Delaford. 428 00:50:04,519 --> 00:50:08,990 If you would care to join us on Thursday next. 429 00:50:09,159 --> 00:50:14,313 Mrs. Jenning's daughter and husband are travelling up especially. 430 00:50:15,679 --> 00:50:19,558 We should be delighted, Colonel. 431 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:24,429 I will, of course, be including Mr. Willoughby in the party. 432 00:50:24,599 --> 00:50:28,592 I should be delighted to join you. 433 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:36,152 Good morning, Miss Dashwood. Good morning, Colonel. 434 00:50:36,319 --> 00:50:39,391 The colonel has invited us to Delaford. 435 00:50:39,559 --> 00:50:45,077 - I hear you have a fine pianoforte. - A Broadwood Grand. 436 00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:50,518 - Then I shall play for you all. - We shall look forward to it. 437 00:51:02,919 --> 00:51:10,234 - Your sister seems very happy. - She does not hide her emotions. 438 00:51:10,399 --> 00:51:15,792 Her romantic prejudices tend to set propriety at naught. 439 00:51:15,959 --> 00:51:21,317 - She is wholly unspoilt. - Rather too unspoilt. 440 00:51:21,479 --> 00:51:26,553 The sooner she is acquainted with the ways of the world, the better. 441 00:51:30,199 --> 00:51:34,989 I knew a lady with the same sweetness of temper - 442 00:51:35,159 --> 00:51:40,597 - Who was forced into a better acquaintance with the world. 443 00:51:40,759 --> 00:51:45,310 The result was only ruination and despair. 444 00:51:46,359 --> 00:51:50,477 Do not desire it. Miss Dashwood. 445 00:51:52,399 --> 00:51:57,348 Col. Brandon's lawn is perfect for kite launching. 446 00:51:57,519 --> 00:52:00,113 Mind the pretty ribbons. 447 00:52:02,079 --> 00:52:07,358 Imagine my surprise when Charlotte and her master appeared with Lucy. 448 00:52:07,519 --> 00:52:10,431 The last person I expected to see. 449 00:52:10,599 --> 00:52:15,434 She came to join in the fun. There is no such luxury at home. 450 00:52:15,599 --> 00:52:19,148 I'd not seen you for so long. 451 00:52:19,319 --> 00:52:23,232 You sly thing! It was the Dashwoods she wanted to see. 452 00:52:23,399 --> 00:52:27,870 I've heard nothing but "Dashwood" for I don't know how long. 453 00:52:28,039 --> 00:52:33,830 What do you think of them? My mother wrote of little else in her letters. 454 00:52:33,999 --> 00:52:37,992 - Are they not as she described? - Nothing like. 455 00:52:38,159 --> 00:52:41,151 You are quite rude today. 456 00:52:41,319 --> 00:52:47,269 He's to be an MP. And he is forced to make everybody like him. 457 00:52:47,439 --> 00:52:53,196 - I said nothing so irrational. - Mr. Palmer's so droll. 458 00:52:53,359 --> 00:52:57,955 Here he comes! Now you shall see, Charlotte. 459 00:53:04,159 --> 00:53:06,912 Hello, Mr. Willoughby! 460 00:53:07,079 --> 00:53:11,197 You must meet my daughter Charlotte, and Mr. Palmer. 461 00:53:11,359 --> 00:53:17,958 - And our cousin, Miss Lucy Steele. - Welcome to our party. 462 00:53:23,279 --> 00:53:26,191 May I sit beside you? 463 00:53:26,359 --> 00:53:30,398 I've longed to meet you. I've heard nothing but praise for you. 464 00:53:31,359 --> 00:53:37,798 Sir John and Mrs. Jennings are too excessive in their compliments. 465 00:53:37,959 --> 00:53:43,431 The praise came from another source. One not inclined to exaggeration. 466 00:53:44,119 --> 00:53:46,758 What can this be? 467 00:53:56,959 --> 00:54:00,269 Is Col. Brandon here? 468 00:54:08,439 --> 00:54:11,670 - My horse! - What's the matter? 469 00:54:11,839 --> 00:54:15,752 - I must away to London. - Impossible! 470 00:54:15,919 --> 00:54:21,391 We can't picnic without our host. Come up to town tomorrow. 471 00:54:21,559 --> 00:54:27,828 - Or wait until we return. - I can't afford to lose one minute. 472 00:54:27,999 --> 00:54:32,709 - Forgive me. - I hope it's nothing serious. 473 00:54:32,879 --> 00:54:37,111 Upon my soul, this is all very unusual. 474 00:54:38,839 --> 00:54:45,153 - Frailty, thy name is Brandon. - Some cannot bear pleasure. 475 00:54:45,319 --> 00:54:49,597 You are a wicked pair. Col. Brandon will be missed. 476 00:54:49,759 --> 00:54:56,358 Why? Everyone speaks well of him, but no one remembers to talk to him. 477 00:54:56,519 --> 00:55:00,034 Nonsense. He is highly respected at Barton Park. 478 00:55:00,199 --> 00:55:04,954 - Which is enough censure in itself. - Really, Willoughby. 479 00:55:05,119 --> 00:55:09,829 Come, come, Mr. Impudence. I know your wicked ways. 480 00:55:09,999 --> 00:55:16,393 Reveal your beau. No secrets between friends. I'll winkle it out of you. 481 00:55:16,559 --> 00:55:23,635 I'll have you married to the colonel by tea, or I'll swallow my bonnet. 482 00:55:23,799 --> 00:55:28,475 - As if you could marry him. - Why should you dislike him? 483 00:55:30,039 --> 00:55:34,271 Because he threatened me with rain when I wanted it fine. 484 00:55:34,439 --> 00:55:40,469 He found fault with my high flyer and will not buy my brown mare. 485 00:55:40,639 --> 00:55:43,949 If it will be of satisfaction to you. - 486 00:55:44,119 --> 00:55:48,909 - I believe his character to be. In all other respects, irreproachable. 487 00:55:49,079 --> 00:55:54,437 In return for this acknowledgement, don't deny me the privilege - 488 00:55:54,599 --> 00:55:59,036 - Of disliking him as much as I adore... 489 00:56:02,879 --> 00:56:06,394 ...this cottage. 490 00:56:06,559 --> 00:56:12,668 - I have plans for improvements. - That. I will never consent to. 491 00:56:12,839 --> 00:56:16,912 Not a stone must be added to its walls. 492 00:56:17,079 --> 00:56:22,073 Were I rich enough, I'd rebuild Combe Magna to this exact image. 493 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:28,553 - With a fire that smokes? - Especially the fire that smokes. 494 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:33,554 Then I'd be as happy at Combe as I've been at Barton. 495 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:39,237 But this place has one claim on my affections none other can share. 496 00:56:39,399 --> 00:56:42,596 Promise never to change it. 497 00:56:47,399 --> 00:56:54,111 I'm honoured you risk your honour by seeing me to the gate unaccompanied. 498 00:56:54,279 --> 00:56:59,558 - That is what Elinor would say. - And she would be right. 499 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:04,998 Miss Marianne, will you grant me an interview tomorrow... alone? 500 00:57:05,159 --> 00:57:09,550 - Willoughby, we are always alone. - But there is... 501 00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:13,758 There is something very particular I should like to ask you. 502 00:57:13,919 --> 00:57:19,676 Of course. I shall ask Mamma if I may stay behind from church. 503 00:57:20,759 --> 00:57:23,831 Thank you. 504 00:57:23,999 --> 00:57:27,548 Until tomorrow. Then. 505 00:57:40,839 --> 00:57:42,989 Oh. Virtue... 506 00:57:43,159 --> 00:57:49,029 Silently and with fear, enter the hearts of all that hear me this day. 507 00:57:49,199 --> 00:57:53,158 Will he kneel down when he asks her? 508 00:57:53,319 --> 00:57:56,629 They always kneel down. 509 00:58:09,399 --> 00:58:12,516 What is wrong, dearest? 510 00:58:12,679 --> 00:58:17,275 Willoughby? What is the matter? 511 00:58:17,439 --> 00:58:22,069 Forgive me... I am sent... 512 00:58:22,239 --> 00:58:27,438 Lady Allen exercised the privilege of riches upon a dependent cousin. 513 00:58:27,599 --> 00:58:33,231 - She is sending me to London. - This morning? 514 00:58:33,399 --> 00:58:38,917 What a disappointment. Your business won't detain you for long, I hope? 515 00:58:39,079 --> 00:58:44,915 You are kind. But I have no idea of returning immediately to Devonshire. 516 00:58:45,079 --> 00:58:50,790 - I am invited only once a year. - Can you wait for our invitation? 517 00:58:52,559 --> 00:59:00,352 My engagements are of such a nature... I dare not flatter my... 518 00:59:00,519 --> 00:59:05,593 It's folly to linger in this manner. I will not torment myself further. 519 00:59:05,759 --> 00:59:08,637 Willoughby, come back! 520 00:59:08,799 --> 00:59:12,951 Ask Betsy to make a cup of tea for Marianne. 521 00:59:13,119 --> 00:59:18,910 - What is wrong, my love? - Do not ask me questions. 522 00:59:24,879 --> 00:59:28,918 - They must have quarrelled. - That is unlikely. 523 00:59:30,199 --> 00:59:35,319 Perhaps Lady Allen disapproves of his regard for Marianne. 524 00:59:35,479 --> 00:59:40,234 - An excuse to send him away. - Then why did he not say so? 525 00:59:40,399 --> 00:59:44,711 - It's not like him to be secretive. - What do you suspect? 526 00:59:44,879 --> 00:59:51,955 - Why was his manner so guilty? - You think he's been acting a part? 527 00:59:52,119 --> 00:59:56,635 - No. He loves her. I am sure. - Of course! 528 00:59:56,799 --> 01:00:00,633 Has he left her any assurance of his return? 529 01:00:00,799 --> 01:00:03,393 Ask if he proposed. 530 01:00:03,559 --> 01:00:08,553 No! I cannot force a confidence from Marianne. Neither should you. 531 01:00:08,719 --> 01:00:13,554 We must trust her to confide in us in her own time. 532 01:00:13,719 --> 01:00:17,268 There was something underhand in his manner. 533 01:00:17,439 --> 01:00:19,953 You will think the worst of him. 534 01:00:20,119 --> 01:00:25,876 I give him the benefit of my good opinion. He deserves no less. 535 01:00:26,039 --> 01:00:28,758 I am very fond of Willoughby. 536 01:00:28,919 --> 01:00:32,229 Mamma... Mamma! 537 01:00:36,479 --> 01:00:40,028 She would not let me in. 538 01:01:22,599 --> 01:01:28,788 - If only this rain would stop. - If only you would stop. 539 01:01:28,959 --> 01:01:33,953 'Twas you took her off my hands, Mr. Palmer. A good bargain, too. 540 01:01:34,119 --> 01:01:39,876 Now I have the whip hand over you, for you cannot give her back. 541 01:01:41,719 --> 01:01:46,793 Marianne, play with us. Looking at the weather will not bring him back. 542 01:01:46,959 --> 01:01:51,032 - She ate nothing at dinner. - We're all forlorn these days. 543 01:01:53,439 --> 01:01:58,957 Dear Miss Dashwood, perhaps now we might have our... discussion. 544 01:01:59,119 --> 01:02:03,954 - Our discussion? - I've longed to ask you something. 545 01:02:04,119 --> 01:02:10,558 You might think me impertinent. It is an odd question. 546 01:02:10,719 --> 01:02:16,874 If only he'd gone to Combe Magna. We live but half a mile away. 547 01:02:17,039 --> 01:02:22,318 - Five and a half. - I cannot believe it is that far. 548 01:02:22,479 --> 01:02:27,394 - I can't believe it. - Try. 549 01:02:28,919 --> 01:02:34,755 You may ask any manner of question if that is of any help. 550 01:02:34,919 --> 01:02:40,994 Are you acquainted with your sister-in-law's mother Mrs. Ferrars? 551 01:02:41,159 --> 01:02:47,109 Fanny's mother? No. I have never met her. 552 01:02:47,279 --> 01:02:53,627 You must think me strange to ask. If only I dared tell... 553 01:02:53,799 --> 01:02:59,157 If she tells you of the famous Mr. F, you must pass it on. 554 01:03:00,999 --> 01:03:04,958 Will you take a turn with me, Miss Dashwood? 555 01:03:08,479 --> 01:03:13,712 I had no idea you were at all connected with that family. 556 01:03:13,879 --> 01:03:18,111 I am nothing to Mrs. Ferrars at present. 557 01:03:18,279 --> 01:03:25,469 But the time may come when we may be very intimately connected. 558 01:03:25,639 --> 01:03:28,949 What do you mean? 559 01:03:30,839 --> 01:03:34,832 Do you have an understanding with Fanny's brother Robert? 560 01:03:34,999 --> 01:03:40,835 The youngest? No. I have never met him in my life. 561 01:03:40,999 --> 01:03:46,278 - With Edward. - Edward Ferrars? 562 01:03:47,279 --> 01:03:52,433 Edward and I have been secretly engaged these five years. 563 01:03:55,159 --> 01:03:58,629 You may well be surprised. 564 01:03:58,799 --> 01:04:05,113 I only mention it because I entirely trust you to keep our secret. 565 01:04:05,279 --> 01:04:09,955 Edward looks on you quite as his own sister. 566 01:04:10,999 --> 01:04:16,232 I am sorry. Surely we... 567 01:04:16,399 --> 01:04:20,392 We surely do not mean the same Mr. Ferrars. 568 01:04:20,559 --> 01:04:26,794 Yes. He was under the tutelage of my uncle, Mr. Pratt, in Plymouth. 569 01:04:26,959 --> 01:04:32,477 - Has he never spoken of it? - Yes... Yes. I believe he has. 570 01:04:34,999 --> 01:04:41,632 I wanted his mother's approval, but we loved each other so much. 571 01:04:43,199 --> 01:04:50,879 You must have seen how capable he is of making a woman attached to him. 572 01:04:53,039 --> 01:04:57,032 I cannot pretend it has not been hard on both of us. 573 01:04:57,199 --> 01:05:02,034 We can scarcely meet above twice a year. 574 01:05:10,679 --> 01:05:14,592 You seem out of sorts. Are you quite well? 575 01:05:14,759 --> 01:05:20,834 - I have not offended you? - I must know what you are saying. 576 01:05:20,999 --> 01:05:27,950 - Promise me you'll not tell a soul. - Miss Dashwood is quite engrossed. 577 01:05:29,079 --> 01:05:31,718 I give you my word. 578 01:05:31,879 --> 01:05:37,112 - What has so fascinated you? - Tell us all! 579 01:05:37,279 --> 01:05:44,196 - We were talking of London. - Do you hear that, Charlotte? 580 01:05:44,359 --> 01:05:49,353 - Charlotte and I concocted a plan. - The best plan in the world! 581 01:05:49,519 --> 01:05:53,990 I make for London shortly, and I invite you, Lucy. - 582 01:05:54,159 --> 01:05:58,835 - And both the Misses Dashwood to join me. 583 01:06:01,239 --> 01:06:04,356 Can I go? 584 01:06:04,519 --> 01:06:10,230 You will all come to my Chelsea home and taste of the season's delights. 585 01:06:10,399 --> 01:06:13,072 Please, can I go? 586 01:06:13,239 --> 01:06:19,951 - Do you not long for it to be so? - I came here with no other view. 587 01:06:21,199 --> 01:06:28,514 - We can't leave our mother. - She can spare you very well. 588 01:06:28,679 --> 01:06:33,389 - Of course she can! - I could not be more delighted. 589 01:06:33,559 --> 01:06:38,758 I will brook no refusal. Let us strike hands on the bargain. 590 01:06:38,919 --> 01:06:45,233 If I don't have you married by Michaelmas, it will not be my fault. 591 01:06:52,759 --> 01:06:56,195 I've never been so grateful. 592 01:06:56,359 --> 01:07:01,558 I shall see Willoughby, and you will see Edward. 593 01:07:01,719 --> 01:07:06,839 - Are you asleep? - With you in the room? 594 01:07:07,639 --> 01:07:14,989 You can't feel as calm as you look. Oh, I will never sleep tonight. 595 01:07:15,159 --> 01:07:19,391 What were you and Miss Steele talking about so long? 596 01:07:19,559 --> 01:07:23,438 Nothing of significance. 597 01:07:39,399 --> 01:07:45,395 How do you think I like poking about in that big house without Charlotte? 598 01:07:47,159 --> 01:07:52,279 I wrote to Edward, yet I do not know how much I may see of him. 599 01:07:52,439 --> 01:07:57,752 Secrecy is vital. He'll never be able to call. 600 01:07:57,919 --> 01:08:02,595 My only comfort has been the constancy of his affection. 601 01:08:02,759 --> 01:08:07,469 You're fortunate never to have had any doubts on that score. 602 01:08:07,639 --> 01:08:14,431 I am of a jealous nature. Had he talked more of one young woman... 603 01:08:14,599 --> 01:08:19,389 But he's not given a moment's alarm on that count. 604 01:08:19,559 --> 01:08:24,314 Imagine how glad he'll be to learn that we are friends. 605 01:08:29,239 --> 01:08:33,790 - Have you missed me, Pigeon? - Very much, ma'am. 606 01:08:33,959 --> 01:08:39,477 - Is everything in order? - I suggest the ordering of coal. 607 01:08:39,639 --> 01:08:46,078 There you are, Pooter. Still alive, I see... Tea, Pigeon. 608 01:08:46,239 --> 01:08:52,508 You do not waste any time. Give it to Pigeon. 609 01:08:52,679 --> 01:09:01,030 Mrs. Jennings says your sister will buy her wedding clothes in town. 610 01:09:02,119 --> 01:09:06,909 John and Fanny are in town. We should be forced to see them. 611 01:09:15,239 --> 01:09:19,073 I think it was for next door. 612 01:09:19,239 --> 01:09:24,518 Sit down for two seconds. You're making me nervous. 613 01:09:40,279 --> 01:09:43,874 Oh, Elinor, it is Willoughby. 614 01:09:44,039 --> 01:09:47,111 Indeed it is. 615 01:09:52,799 --> 01:09:55,597 Excuse me. Colonel. 616 01:09:55,759 --> 01:09:58,432 Colonel... 617 01:09:59,839 --> 01:10:04,594 What a pleasure to see you. Have you been in London all this while? 618 01:10:04,759 --> 01:10:08,388 What a pleasure to see you. Have you been in London all this while? 619 01:10:08,559 --> 01:10:13,314 I have heard reports through town... 620 01:10:14,799 --> 01:10:19,190 Tell me once and for all: 621 01:10:19,359 --> 01:10:23,671 Is everything resolved between your sister and Mr. Willoughby? 622 01:10:26,479 --> 01:10:32,190 Though neither one has informed me of their understanding. - 623 01:10:32,359 --> 01:10:37,558 - I have no doubt of their mutual affection. 624 01:10:37,719 --> 01:10:41,314 Thank you, Miss Dashwood. 625 01:10:41,479 --> 01:10:45,518 To your sister I wish all imaginable happiness. 626 01:10:45,679 --> 01:10:52,630 To Mr. Willoughby, that he may endeavour to deserve her. 627 01:10:54,239 --> 01:10:57,595 What do you mean? 628 01:10:58,559 --> 01:11:01,756 Forgive me... 629 01:11:04,519 --> 01:11:07,716 Forgive me. 630 01:11:18,399 --> 01:11:24,429 - Where is dear Edward. John? - And who is Edward? 631 01:11:24,599 --> 01:11:29,354 My brother. Mr. Edward Ferrars. 632 01:11:29,519 --> 01:11:33,478 Ferrars with an F? 633 01:11:37,919 --> 01:11:43,710 Are there any messages? No message at all? No cards? 634 01:11:43,879 --> 01:11:49,033 - You do not ask for your messages. - No, for I do not expect any. 635 01:11:49,199 --> 01:11:53,078 I have very little acquaintance in town. 636 01:12:08,799 --> 01:12:14,237 Not another word about the ham bone. You and Cartwright sort it out. 637 01:12:14,399 --> 01:12:19,792 - No messages. - Do not fret, my dear. 638 01:12:19,959 --> 01:12:24,794 This good weather is keeping many a sportsman in the country. 639 01:12:24,959 --> 01:12:30,113 But the frost will soon drive them to town. Depend on it. 640 01:12:30,279 --> 01:12:33,396 I had not thought of that. 641 01:12:33,559 --> 01:12:36,471 And Miss Dashwood may set her heart at rest. - 642 01:12:36,639 --> 01:12:42,157 - For your sister-in-law is inviting Mr. F to the ball tonight. 643 01:12:43,039 --> 01:12:43,559 Do be careful. the horses have been here. 644 01:12:43,559 --> 01:12:47,188 Do be careful. the horses have been here. 645 01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:52,995 It is beginning to rain also. Follow me. 646 01:13:20,639 --> 01:13:24,314 Mamma! This is very merry! 647 01:13:25,679 --> 01:13:30,548 - Do you spy anyone we know? - No. Mr. Palmer has a better view. 648 01:13:30,719 --> 01:13:35,474 - Do you see anyone we know? - Unfortunately not. 649 01:13:35,639 --> 01:13:40,997 How can you be such a tease? There is Mrs. John Dashwood. 650 01:13:44,399 --> 01:13:47,709 Come along, my dears. 651 01:13:50,079 --> 01:13:52,877 There you are! 652 01:13:53,039 --> 01:13:57,476 How hot it is...

My brother-in-law... 657 01:14:16,639 --> 01:14:18,789 Mr. Robert Ferrars. 658 01:14:20,319 --> 01:14:23,629 Miss Dashwood. Miss Steele. Miss Marianne. 659 01:14:24,919 --> 01:14:28,628 My dear ladies, we meet at last. 660 01:14:30,279 --> 01:14:34,318 You must be the younger brother. Is Mr. Edward not here? 661 01:14:34,479 --> 01:14:39,234 - Miss Dashwood was counting on him. - He is far too busy. 662 01:14:39,399 --> 01:14:44,519 There's no special acquaintance here to make his attendance worthwhile. 663 01:14:44,679 --> 01:14:49,992 What are the men about these days? Are they in hiding? 664 01:14:50,159 --> 01:14:57,270 In the absence of your brother you must dance with Miss Dashwood. 665 01:15:00,519 --> 01:15:03,397 It would be my honour. 666 01:15:08,479 --> 01:15:14,827 Perhaps Miss Steele might consider reserving the allemande? 667 01:15:52,919 --> 01:15:57,629 You reside in Devonshire. Miss Dashwood? 668 01:15:59,959 --> 01:16:03,918 - In a cottage? - Yes. 669 01:16:04,999 --> 01:16:09,948 I am excessively fond of a cottage. 670 01:16:10,119 --> 01:16:15,147 If I had any money to spare, I should build one myself. 671 01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:29,039 Mr. Willoughby... 672 01:16:29,199 --> 01:16:32,828 - How do you do, Miss Dashwood? - Very well. 673 01:16:32,999 --> 01:16:37,595 - How is your family? - We are all extremely well. 674 01:16:39,079 --> 01:16:42,276 Thank you for your kind inquiry. 675 01:16:43,959 --> 01:16:46,314 Willoughby! 676 01:16:56,679 --> 01:16:59,751 Good God, Willoughby... 677 01:17:01,599 --> 01:17:05,387 Will you not shake hands with me? 678 01:17:05,559 --> 01:17:09,347 How do you do, Miss Marianne? 679 01:17:10,599 --> 01:17:15,389 What is the matter? Why have you not come to see me? 680 01:17:15,559 --> 01:17:20,075 Were you not in London? Have you not received my letters? 681 01:17:20,239 --> 01:17:24,915 I had the pleasure of receiving the information you sent to me. 682 01:17:26,879 --> 01:17:31,350 For heaven's sake, Willoughby, tell me what is wrong. 683 01:17:33,559 --> 01:17:37,154 Thank you. I am most obliged. 684 01:17:37,319 --> 01:17:41,790 Excuse me, I must rejoin my party. 685 01:18:00,919 --> 01:18:05,629 Go to him. Force him to come to me instantly. 686 01:18:05,799 --> 01:18:09,678 You must come away. 687 01:18:10,999 --> 01:18:17,108 - Do you know them? - Acquaintances from the country. 688 01:18:24,599 --> 01:18:28,638 Come away, dearest. 689 01:18:35,239 --> 01:18:39,915 I do not understand. I must speak to him... 690 01:18:40,079 --> 01:18:44,675 My goodness. Come, dear. You need some air. 691 01:18:56,639 --> 01:19:00,951 Lucy! We must go. 692 01:19:01,119 --> 01:19:06,113 It would be our pleasure to escort your young charge home. 693 01:19:06,279 --> 01:19:08,509 How kind. 694 01:19:08,679 --> 01:19:13,673 She actually sent him messages during the night? 695 01:19:23,959 --> 01:19:28,430 - Marianne, please tell me. - Do not ask me questions. 696 01:19:28,599 --> 01:19:35,550 - You have no confidence in me. - You confide in no one. 697 01:19:36,719 --> 01:19:41,952 - I have nothing to tell. - We neither of us do. 698 01:19:42,119 --> 01:19:47,273 I, because I conceal nothing. You, because you communicate nothing. 699 01:19:53,399 --> 01:19:58,632 Lady Charteris ought to limit her invitation list. It was very warm. 700 01:19:58,799 --> 01:20:01,871 I am glad we left early. 701 01:20:02,479 --> 01:20:06,438 There now... 702 01:20:09,319 --> 01:20:15,394 Lovers' quarrels are swift to heal. That letter will do the trick. 703 01:20:15,559 --> 01:20:22,078 I must be off. I do hope he doesn't keep her waiting much longer. 704 01:20:22,239 --> 01:20:24,958 It hurts to see her this way. 705 01:20:27,359 --> 01:20:30,795 What a welcome I had from Edward's family. 706 01:20:30,959 --> 01:20:37,228 You never said how agreeable your sister-in-law is. Robert, also. 707 01:20:37,399 --> 01:20:42,871 It is fortunate that none of them knows of your engagement. 708 01:20:51,079 --> 01:20:57,917 "Dear Madam. I am at a loss to see how I might have offended you." 709 01:20:58,079 --> 01:21:03,517 "If I have given rise to a belief of more than I meant to express. - 710 01:21:03,679 --> 01:21:07,388 - I regret not having been more guarded." 711 01:21:07,559 --> 01:21:10,437 "My affections are engaged elsewhere." 712 01:21:10,599 --> 01:21:16,231 "It is with regret that I return your letters and the lock of hair." 713 01:21:16,399 --> 01:21:20,995 "I am, et cetera, John Willoughby." 714 01:21:22,999 --> 01:21:25,797 Dearest... 715 01:21:27,639 --> 01:21:35,114 It is better than if your engagement had carried on before he ended it. 716 01:21:35,279 --> 01:21:37,998 We're not engaged. 717 01:21:38,159 --> 01:21:42,835 I thought he left you with some kind of understanding. 718 01:21:42,999 --> 01:21:49,791 - He's not so unworthy as you think. - Did he tell you that he loved you? 719 01:21:49,959 --> 01:21:58,310 Yes. No... Never absolutely. It was implied but never declared. 720 01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:03,348 Sometimes I thought it had been, but it never was.

Your sister-in-law drove her to hysteria. 846 01:35:41,319 --> 01:35:45,232 How long have you known? 847 01:35:47,359 --> 01:35:52,479 - Since Mrs. Jennings invited us. - Why did you not tell me? 848 01:35:52,639 --> 01:35:55,711 Lucy told me in confidence. 849 01:35:55,879 --> 01:35:59,633 - I could not break my word. - He loves you! 850 01:35:59,799 --> 01:36:04,827 - He tried to tell me about Lucy. - He cannot marry her. 851 01:36:06,159 --> 01:36:10,550 Should he treat her worse than Willoughby treated you? 852 01:36:10,719 --> 01:36:17,033 - He can't marry without love. - He promised a long time ago. 853 01:36:17,199 --> 01:36:25,436 He may harbour some regret, but he he will be happy he kept his word. 854 01:36:25,599 --> 01:36:33,597 It is bewitching to think one's happiness depends on one person. - 855 01:36:33,759 --> 01:36:38,230 - But it is not always possible. We must accept. 856 01:36:38,399 --> 01:36:43,678 Edward will marry Lucy, and you and I will go home. 857 01:36:43,839 --> 01:36:46,672 Always resignation and acceptance. 858 01:36:47,439 --> 01:36:50,875 Always prudence and honour and duty. 859 01:36:51,039 --> 01:36:54,395 Elinor, where is your heart? 860 01:36:55,039 --> 01:36:59,351 What do you know of my heart, or anything but your own suffering? 861 01:36:59,519 --> 01:37:04,468 For weeks this has been pressed on me, when I could not speak of it. 862 01:37:04,639 --> 01:37:11,351 Forced on me by the person whose prior claims ruined all my hopes. 863 01:37:11,519 --> 01:37:16,274 I endured her exaltation, knowing I was divided from Edward forever. 864 01:37:16,439 --> 01:37:21,911 If not bound to silence.
