00:00:26,410 --> 00:00:29,090
Poisons can take many forms.
3
00:00:29,890 --> 00:00:31,170
powders,
4
00:00:31,770 --> 00:00:32,970
liquids,
5
00:00:33,610 --> 00:00:34,730
ideas
6
00:00:36,730 --> 00:00:38,090
Appearances differ,
7
00:00:38,930 --> 00:00:41,090
but the function is the same.
8
00:00:47,170 --> 00:00:50,970
Take root in the darkness
and in the stillness,
9
00:00:52,690 --> 00:00:54,410
and like fire
10
00:00:56,250 --> 00:00:57,650
feeds
11
00:00:58,210 --> 00:00:59,810
and grows,
12
00:01:01,090 --> 00:01:02,730
gobbles
13
00:01:04,690 --> 00:01:06,490
and destroy.
14
00:01:08,410 --> 00:01:10,730
My minister murdered.
15
00:01:11,890 --> 00:01:13,970
His wife murdered.
16
00:01:15,410 --> 00:01:18,890
The dead murderer
by his own hand.
17
00:01:19,850 --> 00:01:22,210
And still the contagion spreads.
18
00:01:25,450 --> 00:01:27,330
It's on my walls.
19
00:01:29,770 --> 00:01:32,930
It's in my blood
and in my mind.
20
00:01:36,930 --> 00:01:39,650
Is it any wonder that
I haven't slept?
21
00:01:44,530 --> 00:01:48,210
If such tragedies happen to me
while I wake up,
22
00:01:51,370 --> 00:01:55,090
what kind of hell awaits me
Should I ever fall asleep?
23
00:02:04,610 --> 00:02:08,610
you have failed me for
last time, Monsignor Marchal.
24
00:02:14,730 --> 00:02:16,050
I don't know that man.
25
00:03:55,970 --> 00:03:58,650
Would you have him put in jail,
Sir, or in the nearest ditch?
26
00:03:59,370 --> 00:04:01,690
Lord, when you were born,
I was six years old.
27
00:04:01,930 --> 00:04:04,090
Hold your tongue!
Let him talk!
28
00:04:07,530 --> 00:04:09,770
From that day until today,
I have prayed that Almighty God
29
00:04:09,810 --> 00:04:11,730
would give me
the opportunity to serve you.
30
00:04:18,490 --> 00:04:20,330
today I kneel before you
31
00:04:20,570 --> 00:04:22,130
to pray for one thing,
32
00:04:24,210 --> 00:04:25,850
sorry.
33
00:04:50,570 --> 00:04:51,970
You have it.
34
00:05:27,130 --> 00:05:29,290
I came to express my regret.
35
00:05:30,290 --> 00:05:32,570
your sympathy
it is unnecessary
36
00:05:33,170 --> 00:05:35,730
No one has served His Majesty
with greater devotion.
37
00:05:37,410 --> 00:05:41,290
But I won't just miss you
as a colleague.
38
00:05:42,610 --> 00:05:44,490
I will miss you as a friend.
39
00:05:45,210 --> 00:05:48,050
then let me
give you some advice:
40
00:05:48,290 --> 00:05:51,370
the truth and
nothing but the truth.
41
00:05:51,610 --> 00:05:54,290
I fear the king
He is deaf to warn.
42
00:05:55,250 --> 00:05:58,170
Tell him what he needs to know,
It's not what you want to hear.
43
00:05:58,930 --> 00:06:01,210
If they take us all our lives,
44
00:06:01,450 --> 00:06:03,930
We soon forget how to walk.
45
00:06:10,490 --> 00:06:13,090
I don't understand
why the king allowed it.
46
00:06:13,810 --> 00:06:15,850
A sign of weakness, perhaps?
47
00:06:16,970 --> 00:06:20,250
Magnanimity, strength.
48
00:06:21,090 --> 00:06:24,330
A cruel moment,
type the next one.
49
00:06:25,090 --> 00:06:27,450
The winds of power are not constant.
50
00:06:28,650 --> 00:06:31,730
Now, let's talk about the future.
51
00:06:32,410 --> 00:06:34,290
How could I pay you?
52
00:06:34,530 --> 00:06:36,130
With your loyalty.
53
00:06:37,210 --> 00:06:40,250
The patio is a staircase.
Have you ever noticed that?
54
00:06:40,910 --> 00:06:44,310
But the opportunity is not
shine equally for all,
55
00:06:44,910 --> 00:06:48,310
but you can't believe you have
the misfortune of being a woman.
56
00:06:50,430 --> 00:06:52,030
In this way,
57
00:06:52,830 --> 00:06:55,950
when my noble clients
require a little help,
58
00:06:56,190 --> 00:06:57,830
I'm here.
59
00:06:58,910 --> 00:07:00,510
And there are many.
60
00:07:00,750 --> 00:07:02,830
How can I help you?
61
00:07:03,430 --> 00:07:06,650
I fear my good friend,
Lady of Montespan,
62
00:07:06,750 --> 00:07:08,310
You may soon need allies.
63
00:07:10,070 --> 00:07:12,110
I want you to become friends with her.
64
00:07:13,030 --> 00:07:15,910
What use would she have of me?
She already has you.
65
00:07:16,150 --> 00:07:18,950
The more powerful your friends are,
66
00:07:19,550 --> 00:07:22,950
the longer you stay
climb the ladder
67
00:07:24,630 --> 00:07:26,470
While I help you up,
68
00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:28,350
you help me
69
00:07:28,590 --> 00:07:30,430
expand my clientele
70
00:07:31,470 --> 00:07:34,070
on every step
that meets your foot.
71
00:07:36,350 --> 00:07:37,870
I will do what you ask me.
72
00:07:52,670 --> 00:07:54,630
The world may be poisoned
but you are the antidote.
73
00:07:54,870 --> 00:07:57,270
And until you realize this?
74
00:07:57,590 --> 00:07:59,670
he will continue
to interfere,
75
00:07:59,910 --> 00:08:02,550
questioning,
hitting people.
76
00:08:03,790 --> 00:08:06,190
It's not what you do,
it's who you are
77
00:08:08,870 --> 00:08:10,870
This poison is like love.
78
00:08:11,110 --> 00:08:12,310
How is that?
79
00:08:13,950 --> 00:08:16,350
It has a mysterious ingredient.
80
00:08:17,430 --> 00:08:20,070
I still don't know
where does it come from
81
00:08:21,430 --> 00:08:24,430
but I won't stop searching
until I find out.
82
00:08:30,270 --> 00:08:33,710
You see, it's not what I do,
It's who I am.
83
00:08:36,350 --> 00:08:37,430
Where are you going?
84
00:08:37,990 --> 00:08:41,510
To a house of ill repute.
Many of these women are very sick.
85
00:08:43,350 --> 00:08:45,350
Will I find you here?
When will I come back?
86
00:08:45,590 --> 00:08:47,590
Do you want to find me?
87
00:08:49,230 --> 00:08:50,710
You are the detective.
88
00:09:04,950 --> 00:09:08,030
The English will have sight
from the Dutch coast in days.
89
00:09:08,270 --> 00:09:09,790
Turenne will remain in command
90
00:09:10,030 --> 00:09:13,070
but you take charge
of the assault on Maastricht.
91
00:09:14,030 --> 00:09:15,110
I?
92
00:09:16,830 --> 00:09:18,230
And Amsterdam?
93
00:09:19,230 --> 00:09:20,670
will be yours
94
00:09:21,310 --> 00:09:24,950
You are putting all the destiny
of France in my hands, why?
95
00:09:25,190 --> 00:09:27,070
I barely have to say it.
96
00:09:27,750 --> 00:09:29,510
It might be good to hear.
97
00:09:30,990 --> 00:09:31,870
Glory.
98
00:09:32,110 --> 00:09:33,990
Whose?
Our.
99
00:09:35,990 --> 00:09:38,390
it's time for you
engrave your name in history.
100
00:09:39,550 --> 00:09:42,110
I always had the impression
only one of us could win.
101
00:09:42,350 --> 00:09:43,870
There can be two winners,
102
00:09:44,110 --> 00:09:46,390
as long as they are
on the same side.
103
00:09:47,750 --> 00:09:50,030
we are on the same side,
isn't it?
104
00:09:55,150 --> 00:09:56,630
How are you sleeping?
105
00:10:00,030 --> 00:10:00,950
come,
106
00:10:02,150 --> 00:10:03,510
Let's consider the route.
107
00:10:36,150 --> 00:10:37,510
Madame d'Clermont.
108
00:10:37,750 --> 00:10:39,670
I think the Duchess d'Cassel
109
00:10:39,910 --> 00:10:42,150
now is the right thing to do
steering mode
110
00:10:43,350 --> 00:10:44,670
Duchess.
111
00:10:46,270 --> 00:10:48,230
I'm not proud of the title.
112
00:10:49,230 --> 00:10:52,710
I must apologize.
I have not offered my condolences
113
00:10:52,950 --> 00:10:54,190
for your mother
114
00:10:54,430 --> 00:10:56,510
It was quite a blow.
115
00:10:58,390 --> 00:11:00,390
Your own mother is...
Disappeared.
116
00:11:01,070 --> 00:11:02,790
A few years ago.
117
00:11:03,510 --> 00:11:06,470
She'll be looking down,
I'm certainly glad to see you
118
00:11:06,710 --> 00:11:08,270
happily married.
119
00:11:08,750 --> 00:11:11,950
I don't see how any
marriage can be happy.
120
00:11:13,110 --> 00:11:15,510
If the terms are satisfactory,
the union
121
00:11:15,750 --> 00:11:16,710
productive...
122
00:11:17,030 --> 00:11:18,310
For some, heaven.
123
00:11:18,550 --> 00:11:20,430
Others, a prison
124
00:11:21,030 --> 00:11:22,550
no escape
125
00:11:22,790 --> 00:11:24,670
There is always
means of escape.
126
00:11:25,590 --> 00:11:29,030
it is merely
a case of finding it.
127
00:11:31,590 --> 00:11:35,030
I have a friend who
specializes in such matters.
128
00:11:41,350 --> 00:11:42,790
Excuse me.
129
00:11:52,830 --> 00:11:55,470
Another four weeks,
maybe five.
130
00:11:56,350 --> 00:11:58,830
Do you have other children?
Five.
131
00:11:59,750 --> 00:12:00,830
Where are they?
132
00:12:01,070 --> 00:12:04,310
Well one fell to smallpox
and two with my cousin in Lyon.
133
00:12:04,550 --> 00:12:06,910
and father Etienne
takes care of others.
134
00:12:07,150 --> 00:12:08,270
Father Étienne?
135
00:12:08,510 --> 00:12:11,390
Take confession and give money
to those who don't win.
136
00:12:11,630 --> 00:12:14,310
And, if we have unwanted children,
137
00:12:14,550 --> 00:12:16,950
He takes them out of our hands and places them
in a hospital for orphans and strays.
138
00:12:17,190 --> 00:12:18,910
he is a saint,
Mark my words.
139
00:12:19,150 --> 00:12:21,870
I'll be back in a week.
Avoid too much effort.
140
00:12:22,110 --> 00:12:24,950
Then I'll spend my days in bed!
141
00:12:26,510 --> 00:12:28,150
You must be Father Etienne.
142
00:12:28,390 --> 00:12:31,470
And you must be the angel that
Help these girls in their woes.
143
00:12:31,710 --> 00:12:34,390
I wouldn't call pregnancy an affliction.
I would like to!
144
00:12:35,950 --> 00:12:38,190
Do you care for unwanted babies?
145
00:12:38,430 --> 00:12:41,990
Well we have a little house to
orphans near Saint-Denis, yes.
146
00:12:42,470 --> 00:12:43,870
Each one receives food,
147
00:12:44,110 --> 00:12:48,230
a bed, an education, and they are
stay as far away as possible...
148
00:12:48,470 --> 00:12:49,790
...the sins of his mother.
149
00:12:50,950 --> 00:12:52,830
Well, I prefer mistakes.
150
00:12:54,110 --> 00:12:55,990
If only there was
more like you
151
00:12:56,230 --> 00:12:58,230
We all do what we can.
152
00:13:05,310 --> 00:13:06,590
I'll come back later
153
00:13:06,830 --> 00:13:07,910
drunk
154
00:13:09,110 --> 00:13:12,630
Then I'll wait
find you and the bed
155
00:13:13,790 --> 00:13:14,910
quite hot.
156
00:13:35,030 --> 00:13:38,990
Brother, history will show you
be the best player in France.
157
00:13:39,230 --> 00:13:41,870
What you notice about billiards
There is no strategy.
158
00:13:42,310 --> 00:13:43,750
Just tactics.
159
00:13:50,110 --> 00:13:52,470
You deliberately failed, Thomas.
160
00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:55,710
No, sir. I simply
He lacked the necessary skill.
161
00:13:58,230 --> 00:14:00,150
I would have thought that
a man who faces such a journey
162
00:14:00,390 --> 00:14:01,950
would have his mind
on other matters.
163
00:14:02,190 --> 00:14:03,990
What trip would that be?
164
00:14:07,630 --> 00:14:08,590
You can speak freely.
165
00:14:08,830 --> 00:14:11,030
Madame de Montespan
He has my trust.
166
00:14:11,270 --> 00:14:13,510
have an intelligent woman
like one's advice
167
00:14:13,750 --> 00:14:15,150
is maybe,
the best tactic of all.
168
00:14:15,390 --> 00:14:16,790
If you allow me, madam,
169
00:14:17,030 --> 00:14:19,710
I believe that women are equal to men.
when it comes to strategy.
170
00:14:20,310 --> 00:14:21,510
Explain.
171
00:14:21,730 --> 00:14:24,190
Well it seems to me, sir,
than to live in Versailles
172
00:14:24,430 --> 00:14:27,870
It is a constant balance between
power and negotiation.
173
00:14:28,110 --> 00:14:29,390
are the women
174
00:14:29,630 --> 00:14:32,270
who should negotiate the corridors
of Versailles without any power at all.
175
00:14:32,510 --> 00:14:35,150
Not all women are powerless.
176
00:14:36,510 --> 00:14:39,190
Please don't do it
misunderstand me, ma'am.
177
00:14:39,430 --> 00:14:42,590
Your skills can
not be visible to the majority
178
00:14:42,830 --> 00:14:45,190
but they are
just as effective.
179
00:14:47,070 --> 00:14:49,310
The journey, Lord, is the war.
180
00:14:49,550 --> 00:14:51,870
you are preparing
leave for Holland.
181
00:14:53,950 --> 00:14:55,590
No, I'm staying here.
182
00:14:59,150 --> 00:15:02,390
I see.. So who will do it?
Lead the army, sir?
183
00:15:02,630 --> 00:15:04,070
My brother.
184
00:15:07,190 --> 00:15:10,350
Yes, he showed great bravery.
in the Spanish Netherlands.
185
00:15:10,590 --> 00:15:12,750
I remember hearing
such stories about him.
186
00:15:12,990 --> 00:15:15,110
He is a master of the battlefield.
187
00:15:15,350 --> 00:15:18,430
As long as you are a master of war,
Isn't that right, sir?
188
00:15:18,670 --> 00:15:22,070
Battles require tactics,
War requires a strategy.
189
00:15:22,790 --> 00:15:24,070
Are you saying that my brother
190
00:15:24,310 --> 00:15:25,910
Is he also good at billiards?
191
00:15:26,990 --> 00:15:29,030
I'm saying
nothing at all, sir.
192
00:15:29,270 --> 00:15:31,030
Not from where I'm standing.
193
00:15:31,270 --> 00:15:33,190
It's quite surprising
how many words
194
00:15:33,430 --> 00:15:35,110
are emanating
from your mouth
195
00:15:35,390 --> 00:15:38,670
I was rather under the impression
that the writers were busy writing
196
00:15:38,910 --> 00:15:40,510
instead of talking.
197
00:15:42,150 --> 00:15:46,190
My only wish, Lord,
is to chronicle your exploits.
198
00:15:47,750 --> 00:15:49,670
why did you do it
not speak before?
199
00:15:49,910 --> 00:15:51,270
after death
of his son,
200
00:15:51,510 --> 00:15:53,670
I was wondering, maybe she
He was not in his right mind.
201
00:15:53,950 --> 00:15:56,990
Madame de Montespan does
nothing without foresight.
202
00:15:57,510 --> 00:16:01,430
She is a forceful woman and God is
punishing her with equal power.
203
00:16:01,670 --> 00:16:04,870
I hope your compulsion
It was not persuasive.
204
00:16:05,110 --> 00:16:09,230
Your Majesty, my wishes
of chastity are sacrosanct.
205
00:16:09,790 --> 00:16:13,110
I'm relieved to hear it. the king
must be informed, of course.
206
00:16:13,830 --> 00:16:15,310
We will visit it together.
207
00:16:15,790 --> 00:16:18,190
It will, without a doubt,
dismiss my own account.
208
00:16:18,710 --> 00:16:22,270
but can hardly question
the word of a man of God.
209
00:16:52,310 --> 00:16:54,150
Very attractive,
don't you think?
210
00:16:55,070 --> 00:16:57,030
As are its contents.
211
00:17:01,470 --> 00:17:02,670
Fragrances?
212
00:17:03,230 --> 00:17:04,870
In some ways, yes.
213
00:17:05,350 --> 00:17:07,270
Each one is carefully crafted.
214
00:17:07,510 --> 00:17:10,870
to induce certain
feelings and pleasures.
215
00:17:11,110 --> 00:17:13,350
Whether you are looking for rest
216
00:17:13,910 --> 00:17:15,510
or stimulation,
217
00:17:16,430 --> 00:17:18,630
We have just what you need.
218
00:17:23,610 --> 00:17:28,190
Here, the perfect stimulus
for a sad day.
219
00:17:28,430 --> 00:17:32,790
Only 6,000,
but for you...(five)
220
00:17:39,390 --> 00:17:41,030
you are watching
for something special?
221
00:17:44,830 --> 00:17:46,950
Deep waters, Your Highness?
222
00:17:47,190 --> 00:17:49,390
No, and I have no intention of doing so.
223
00:17:49,630 --> 00:17:51,670
Well, allow me
convince you otherwise.
224
00:17:51,910 --> 00:17:55,870
Being in Versailles and not throwing
one's money is frowned upon.
225
00:17:57,150 --> 00:17:58,390
Good morning, Your Highness.
226
00:17:58,630 --> 00:18:01,630
Can I interest you in some silks?
227
00:18:01,870 --> 00:18:03,830
I find that wool is
more insulating.
228
00:18:04,070 --> 00:18:05,670
but then you
They carry a sheep.
229
00:18:05,910 --> 00:18:07,910
It's better than using a worm.
230
00:18:10,430 --> 00:18:13,430
All of these are attractive.
Fragrance?
231
00:18:13,910 --> 00:18:16,550
Fragrance packaging, Your Highness,
to perfume your fabric.
232
00:18:16,790 --> 00:18:17,750
That's all?
233
00:18:21,950 --> 00:18:23,430
Oh, how strange.
234
00:18:32,750 --> 00:18:36,710
Duchess, your beauty puts
every woman in the room to shame!
235
00:18:37,230 --> 00:18:39,390
you once mentioned
a friend of yours
236
00:18:40,430 --> 00:18:42,910
offering marriage advice.
237
00:18:43,150 --> 00:18:46,590
I think you will find it
a source of great wisdom.
238
00:18:47,110 --> 00:18:48,910
Where will I find it?
239
00:18:54,190 --> 00:18:55,870
His hand...
240
00:18:57,470 --> 00:18:59,070
in your person?
241
00:19:00,830 --> 00:19:02,230
To stabilize, perhaps?
242
00:19:03,110 --> 00:19:06,390
That, of course, was the first thought.
That came to mind, sir.
243
00:19:06,630 --> 00:19:07,270
However...
244
00:19:07,510 --> 00:19:09,710
Have you ever lost a child?
245
00:19:10,670 --> 00:19:11,950
No, sir.
246
00:19:12,390 --> 00:19:16,350
So what qualifies you to speak?
of your mood or motives?
247
00:19:16,590 --> 00:19:19,950
If I understand the details correctly,
His motives were very clear.
248
00:19:20,190 --> 00:19:22,470
and inappropriate towards
someone from the fabric.
249
00:19:22,710 --> 00:19:24,390
They were from a
sensual nature.
250
00:19:26,870 --> 00:19:27,710
My king?
251
00:19:28,830 --> 00:19:30,670
Leave the matter to me.
252
00:20:33,590 --> 00:20:36,110
It's like you
seduce all women?
253
00:20:38,030 --> 00:20:39,510
Did it work?
254
00:20:40,150 --> 00:20:41,790
You're still here.
255
00:20:44,390 --> 00:20:45,670
I like that.
256
00:21:11,390 --> 00:21:12,870
Did you miss me?
257
00:21:14,590 --> 00:21:17,030
If the King sees you...
You are dead.
258
00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:19,670
He has given me his blessing.
259
00:21:20,350 --> 00:21:22,070
I kissed her hand.
260
00:21:22,310 --> 00:21:23,510
and now,
261
00:21:24,430 --> 00:21:25,990
I kiss yours.
262
00:21:28,750 --> 00:21:31,270
we have so much
catch up to do.
263
00:21:42,270 --> 00:21:44,070
Father Pascal came to visit me,
264
00:21:44,310 --> 00:21:46,430
just after the pass
of our daughter.
265
00:21:47,590 --> 00:21:51,830
I felt weak and weak
and I almost collapsed.
266
00:21:52,710 --> 00:21:54,710
How I did it, I
extended a hand
267
00:21:54,950 --> 00:21:57,110
and I hugged him
for the cassock.
268
00:21:57,630 --> 00:21:58,870
helped me stand up
269
00:21:59,110 --> 00:22:02,030
but his hands wandered
in the most intrusive way.
270
00:22:03,790 --> 00:22:05,830
you don't have
mentioned this before.
271
00:22:06,950 --> 00:22:07,910
I didn't do,
272
00:22:08,150 --> 00:22:10,630
Because, frankly, I
feel sorry for him.
273
00:22:11,270 --> 00:22:13,390
Imagine listening
the sordid confessions
274
00:22:13,630 --> 00:22:16,350
of the most beautiful women
in court, all day...
275
00:22:16,590 --> 00:22:19,030
he is a hungry man
at a banquet
276
00:22:19,790 --> 00:22:23,510
Haven't you noticed how
He looks at her: Your Majesty?
277
00:22:24,310 --> 00:22:26,390
One has to wonder
what else is really going on.
278
00:22:49,310 --> 00:22:51,190
Are you in love with him?
279
00:22:54,350 --> 00:22:55,510
My king...
280
00:22:56,350 --> 00:22:58,750
I think he made up this story.
get jealous
281
00:22:58,990 --> 00:22:59,910
and to seduce you.
282
00:23:00,150 --> 00:23:01,830
Why do you listen?
to that woman?
283
00:23:02,070 --> 00:23:03,390
Why do you hate her so much?
284
00:23:03,630 --> 00:23:08,190
Is it wrong to hate the woman who is
Poisoned and twisted my husband's mind?
285
00:23:08,630 --> 00:23:10,990
at least you admit it
hate was your motivation.
286
00:23:11,230 --> 00:23:12,590
You're putting me through hell!
287
00:23:12,830 --> 00:23:16,870
The flames will work wonders
for the ice around your heart!
288
00:24:01,390 --> 00:24:03,150
Ariadne sent me.
289
00:24:12,230 --> 00:24:14,350
Your husband is sick.
290
00:24:15,470 --> 00:24:17,110
How do you know?
291
00:24:18,510 --> 00:24:19,830
Because you are here.
292
00:24:21,870 --> 00:24:23,390
Is there a cure?
293
00:24:24,150 --> 00:24:25,390
There is.
294
00:24:29,830 --> 00:24:31,510
A slow treatment,
295
00:24:32,190 --> 00:24:37,110
which can cause discomfort
over a period of time
296
00:24:37,950 --> 00:24:41,510
or a quick fix
with instant effect.
297
00:24:46,030 --> 00:24:48,990
The slow treatment,
will he notice?
298
00:24:50,230 --> 00:24:53,990
He will have but he will have
no sense of cause.
299
00:24:58,630 --> 00:24:59,790
My dear,
300
00:25:00,870 --> 00:25:02,710
The choice is simple:
301
00:25:03,110 --> 00:25:04,310
death
302
00:25:04,990 --> 00:25:06,350
or suffering.
303
00:25:18,550 --> 00:25:20,070
Suffering.
304
00:25:27,310 --> 00:25:28,630
Why the king
305
00:25:28,870 --> 00:25:30,910
get to declare war
and not me?
306
00:25:31,150 --> 00:25:32,870
Why can't I do that?
307
00:25:33,390 --> 00:25:36,630
In fact, you know,
I think I will do it.
308
00:25:37,350 --> 00:25:41,110
I will declare war on someone today.
309
00:25:48,150 --> 00:25:49,550
you can't go
310
00:25:50,830 --> 00:25:52,430
I prohibit it
311
00:25:53,430 --> 00:25:54,910
I don't care.
312
00:25:57,510 --> 00:25:58,550
Very good.
313
00:25:59,830 --> 00:26:01,430
Then I'll go with you!
314
00:26:02,870 --> 00:26:04,230
You can't stop me.
315
00:26:04,470 --> 00:26:08,350
If you want to come to war,
You can't bring this.
316
00:26:11,950 --> 00:26:15,510
Unfortunately then,
I will remain.
317
00:26:16,390 --> 00:26:19,390
Anyway, you know my opinion.
about mud and tulips.
318
00:26:20,270 --> 00:26:21,630
I will stay here,
keep the bed warm.
319
00:26:21,870 --> 00:26:22,990
And spend my money.
320
00:26:24,070 --> 00:26:26,270
Fortunately, you can
stop worrying about it,
321
00:26:26,510 --> 00:26:28,910
because I have entered
an inheritance
322
00:26:30,030 --> 00:26:31,950
My uncle Hugh, you miserable son of a bitch!
323
00:26:32,870 --> 00:26:36,510
The only time I saw him smile
It was when his wife fell from a horse.
324
00:26:36,990 --> 00:26:38,710
You will miss him terribly,
I guess.
325
00:26:41,670 --> 00:26:43,950
not as much as me
I will miss you, darling.
326
00:26:49,910 --> 00:26:52,630
I beg your pardon.
The door...
327
00:26:53,950 --> 00:26:55,230
Bontemps?
328
00:26:56,630 --> 00:26:58,110
What's happening?
329
00:27:01,510 --> 00:27:04,670
once sent
me to tell you,
330
00:27:06,550 --> 00:27:08,870
If the situation ever arises,
331
00:27:09,310 --> 00:27:12,470
If a woman ever bends her mind
332
00:27:12,710 --> 00:27:14,110
in matters of state...
333
00:27:14,350 --> 00:27:17,150
How can you be sure it is
What affects her so much?
334
00:27:17,390 --> 00:27:19,230
All I know is,
335
00:27:20,270 --> 00:27:22,790
since then
He has chosen the lady,
336
00:27:24,830 --> 00:27:28,670
Our needs are abundant and
Your time is finite.
337
00:27:32,150 --> 00:27:34,510
We can all be drunk with love, Bontemps.
338
00:27:34,910 --> 00:27:36,990
drunk or sober,
339
00:27:40,510 --> 00:27:42,710
He won't listen to me.
340
00:27:48,510 --> 00:27:50,110
As his valet,
341
00:27:50,630 --> 00:27:52,350
I don't have a voice
342
00:28:20,510 --> 00:28:22,590
come and have
a drink with me
343
00:28:25,790 --> 00:28:29,390
Maybe you should
Try to get some sleep, sir.
344
00:28:31,150 --> 00:28:32,910
Kings do not sleep.
345
00:28:33,390 --> 00:28:35,870
The wise do it,
Your Majesty.
346
00:28:37,150 --> 00:28:39,190
I have seen you sleep.
347
00:28:44,510 --> 00:28:47,190
I must speak my mind, sir.
348
00:28:48,710 --> 00:28:51,030
These are not
the words of a valet.
349
00:28:53,110 --> 00:28:56,670
No, sir. They are
the words of a friend.
350
00:28:58,510 --> 00:29:00,350
Well I don't
I want to hear them.
351
00:29:01,470 --> 00:29:03,790
I anticipated it, Lord,
352
00:29:04,390 --> 00:29:07,310
So, I have given
my words to another.
353
00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:10,270
Highness!
354
00:29:22,590 --> 00:29:23,350
So,
355
00:29:24,110 --> 00:29:26,230
both my brother
and my valet
356
00:29:26,470 --> 00:29:28,950
They are conspiring against me,
is it okay?
357
00:29:31,030 --> 00:29:33,190
Not long ago, you looked at me
in the eyes and said...
358
00:29:33,430 --> 00:29:34,550
Is this crazy?
359
00:29:34,790 --> 00:29:37,470
"Any woman
influence me in matters of state..."
360
00:29:37,710 --> 00:29:38,390
That's enough!
361
00:29:38,630 --> 00:29:40,470
"...you will tell me and
In the morning, she will be gone."
362
00:29:40,710 --> 00:29:41,910
I said enough!
363
00:29:42,150 --> 00:29:43,190
Father!
364
00:29:43,430 --> 00:29:44,830
It was your idea, right?
365
00:29:45,070 --> 00:29:45,710
This show!
366
00:29:45,950 --> 00:29:47,070
It was mine.
367
00:29:47,310 --> 00:29:48,830
You?
You don't care enough!
368
00:29:49,070 --> 00:29:50,150
Father! Yeah!
369
00:29:50,910 --> 00:29:52,950
Yeah!
it was my idea
370
00:29:57,230 --> 00:29:58,630
Friend.
371
00:30:05,870 --> 00:30:07,070
Abandon!
372
00:30:40,470 --> 00:30:41,750
A jug of wine!
373
00:30:41,990 --> 00:30:44,030
it is not yet
9:00!
374
00:30:44,270 --> 00:30:46,270
I have made a
enemy of the queen
375
00:30:46,510 --> 00:30:48,030
and she is plotting against me.
376
00:30:48,270 --> 00:30:49,390
I need wine
377
00:30:49,630 --> 00:30:51,270
I can understand
his disapproval
378
00:30:51,510 --> 00:30:54,910
but conspiring against another
It seems far beyond his character.
379
00:30:55,150 --> 00:30:57,190
but it's that idiot priest!
380
00:30:57,430 --> 00:30:58,510
He has turned her into that.
381
00:30:58,750 --> 00:31:01,590
Father Pascual?
I find that surprising.
382
00:31:01,830 --> 00:31:03,190
He is devoted
383
00:31:03,430 --> 00:31:04,350
and inspiring.
384
00:31:04,590 --> 00:31:06,470
Sometimes, Françoise, you are so naive.
385
00:31:06,710 --> 00:31:10,190
I wonder if it's just an elaborate prank.
You're playing with all of us.
386
00:31:15,350 --> 00:31:16,710
...in my office.
387
00:31:16,950 --> 00:31:18,990
We are the only people
who work here!
388
00:31:19,230 --> 00:31:20,990
The nobles come here to play,
389
00:31:21,230 --> 00:31:23,030
and not to work.
Your niece, Isabella,
390
00:31:23,270 --> 00:31:24,270
arrived?
391
00:31:24,950 --> 00:31:27,390
imminently,
as I understand it.
392
00:31:28,190 --> 00:31:30,950
I hope I have been clear, I must confess
I begged him not to come.
393
00:31:31,510 --> 00:31:32,470
Why not?
394
00:31:32,710 --> 00:31:35,030
Versailles is no place for
a young and impressionable girl.
395
00:31:35,270 --> 00:31:37,790
She insisted, naturally.
Like everyone does.
396
00:31:38,030 --> 00:31:40,550
Hoping to come to court
hoping to catch
397
00:31:40,790 --> 00:31:42,310
some important noble eye.
398
00:31:43,430 --> 00:31:44,670
But lately,
399
00:31:45,670 --> 00:31:48,070
I find that the palace is
a den of depravity.
400
00:31:49,310 --> 00:31:50,710
The most inappropriate.
401
00:31:54,150 --> 00:31:55,870
Will we win?
402
00:31:56,950 --> 00:31:58,150
I think so.
403
00:31:58,390 --> 00:32:00,710
but I confess
I was surprised when
404
00:32:00,950 --> 00:32:02,910
the King decided to stay.
405
00:32:03,750 --> 00:32:05,070
As glorious as he is
406
00:32:05,870 --> 00:32:09,470
On the battlefield,
he is not his brother.
407
00:32:09,910 --> 00:32:12,510
Without a doubt, he prefers
confront your adversaries
408
00:32:12,750 --> 00:32:14,150
closer to home.
409
00:32:14,790 --> 00:32:17,190
But where is the glory in that?
410
00:33:17,070 --> 00:33:19,750
Swords over muskets any day,
if you ask me!
411
00:33:19,990 --> 00:33:22,430
A fight is not a fight unless
There's a blade involved!
412
00:33:22,670 --> 00:33:24,230
You don't go.
413
00:33:28,270 --> 00:33:31,190
Kings must lead,
they don't follow
414
00:33:32,390 --> 00:33:35,790
I am called by a higher purpose
to command my armies myself.
415
00:33:36,030 --> 00:33:38,350
I am the one who must go.
You must stay here.
416
00:33:41,590 --> 00:33:44,110
Is it like that?
No apologies, no nothing!
417
00:33:44,350 --> 00:33:47,310
I can't stay here any longer.
418
00:33:50,470 --> 00:33:52,190
What is this higher purpose?
419
00:33:54,830 --> 00:33:57,830
Bontemps, he came to me
because I was worried
420
00:33:58,070 --> 00:33:59,590
because we are all worried.
421
00:34:01,510 --> 00:34:04,030
then you will know
Why should I go?
422
00:34:04,270 --> 00:34:05,790
Take me with you.
423
00:34:07,030 --> 00:34:09,390
Side by side on the battlefield...
424
00:34:09,630 --> 00:34:11,830
I need you here,
while I'm away.
425
00:34:13,030 --> 00:34:15,910
Who knows, maybe in war,
I will find some peace
426
00:34:16,830 --> 00:34:18,950
but the palace needs
protection with rules
427
00:34:19,190 --> 00:34:20,830
with an iron fist.
428
00:34:21,270 --> 00:34:23,510
Our survival depends on both of us.
429
00:34:24,110 --> 00:34:26,310
I'm going to fight the war in Holland.
430
00:34:26,550 --> 00:34:27,870
Please,
431
00:34:28,230 --> 00:34:30,150
brother
Fight the war here.
432
00:34:33,830 --> 00:34:35,550
I'm sorry, Felipe.
433
00:34:36,950 --> 00:34:38,230
destiny calls us
434
00:34:38,470 --> 00:34:39,990
to a greater mission.
435
00:34:56,190 --> 00:34:57,950
Maybe Your Majesty
436
00:34:58,190 --> 00:34:59,430
has forgotten.
437
00:35:03,830 --> 00:35:07,030
while I appreciate
the bravery of my brother,
438
00:35:07,270 --> 00:35:10,070
I think it's a winner
of battles, not wars.
439
00:35:10,870 --> 00:35:13,710
I will drive
attacks Holland.
440
00:35:14,230 --> 00:35:15,830
This is wonderful news, Lord!
441
00:35:16,070 --> 00:35:18,110
Your loyalty gives
my great consolation.
442
00:35:21,070 --> 00:35:24,230
The question of the Regent remains.
443
00:35:30,150 --> 00:35:31,350
Madam,
444
00:35:32,510 --> 00:35:34,430
I owe you an apology.
445
00:35:35,230 --> 00:35:37,430
my mother asked you
for your help.
446
00:35:37,670 --> 00:35:38,910
you gave it with pleasure
447
00:35:39,150 --> 00:35:42,670
and received, in return,
a betrayal of that good will.
448
00:35:45,190 --> 00:35:47,470
Is that why you came here?
449
00:35:48,070 --> 00:35:49,830
Apologize?
450
00:35:51,510 --> 00:35:52,910
In part.
451
00:35:54,790 --> 00:35:59,150
I also came here because
We have a common acquaintance.
452
00:35:59,750 --> 00:36:01,590
a curious woman,
lives in the town.
453
00:36:01,830 --> 00:36:03,590
sometimes it goes
By the name of
454
00:36:03,830 --> 00:36:04,910
Ariana.
455
00:36:05,790 --> 00:36:07,950
Do you know her?
Yes.
456
00:36:09,510 --> 00:36:14,150
and now she has
He asked me to help you.
457
00:36:16,630 --> 00:36:18,030
With what?
458
00:36:18,670 --> 00:36:20,270
You tell me.
459
00:36:22,710 --> 00:36:25,110
Well I can't think
what she meant.
460
00:36:32,070 --> 00:36:34,790
Do you know the
The queen's new confessor?
461
00:36:35,030 --> 00:36:36,230
Father Pascual.
462
00:36:40,590 --> 00:36:42,230
I know your face
463
00:36:43,430 --> 00:36:45,990
and reputation
464
00:36:48,830 --> 00:36:51,910
Maybe we should
take a walk in the garden.
465
00:36:52,150 --> 00:36:54,230
I heard the lilies are in bloom.
466
00:37:25,390 --> 00:37:27,750
you are here
for confession, perhaps?
467
00:37:28,030 --> 00:37:30,750
No, I came here in
468
00:37:30,990 --> 00:37:33,030
a matter of some delicacy.
469
00:37:33,790 --> 00:37:36,510
I will help you
any way I can.
470
00:37:37,950 --> 00:37:40,390
there is a letter
that has to be written
471
00:37:40,630 --> 00:37:42,750
a person of great importance.
472
00:37:42,990 --> 00:37:45,270
Surely you are capable of writing.
473
00:37:46,310 --> 00:37:50,950
My father taught me how to drive
a sword, not a pen. To shame!
474
00:37:52,470 --> 00:37:54,150
The content, as I said,
475
00:37:55,510 --> 00:37:58,070
They really are the most sensitive.
476
00:38:00,350 --> 00:38:01,670
I see.
477
00:38:03,350 --> 00:38:04,630
Come with me.
478
00:38:12,910 --> 00:38:14,670
What do you mean?
479
00:38:15,630 --> 00:38:17,270
"To my Queen...
480
00:38:18,990 --> 00:38:20,070
my life,
481
00:38:22,070 --> 00:38:23,070
my love,
482
00:38:25,510 --> 00:38:26,830
have mercy on me.
483
00:38:28,870 --> 00:38:30,110
Forgive me.
484
00:38:32,230 --> 00:38:34,030
I was tempted
485
00:38:37,350 --> 00:38:39,350
for the sins
486
00:38:43,670 --> 00:38:44,910
of the meat."
487
00:38:49,630 --> 00:38:54,110
Can you please press
this flower between the fold?
488
00:38:55,830 --> 00:38:58,310
I think this is what
the sky must smell.
489
00:38:58,830 --> 00:39:00,830
The chapel must
be full of them.
490
00:39:01,510 --> 00:39:03,270
Very nice.
491
00:39:03,910 --> 00:39:05,470
What is the meaning of this card?
492
00:39:06,510 --> 00:39:08,070
Unfortunately, it's a suicide note.
493
00:39:08,310 --> 00:39:09,070
my son,
494
00:39:09,310 --> 00:39:11,790
you don't plan
take your life?
495
00:39:14,510 --> 00:39:15,630
It's not mine, no.
496
00:39:40,910 --> 00:39:43,510
Take care of me while
I take my break
497
00:39:44,150 --> 00:39:46,110
and free me from danger.
498
00:39:47,190 --> 00:39:49,790
May your grace
be with me always.
499
00:39:50,510 --> 00:39:51,510
Amen.
500
00:39:54,670 --> 00:39:55,710
Amen.
501
00:40:00,830 --> 00:40:02,950
I admire your devotion.
502
00:40:04,470 --> 00:40:06,870
I don't know a greater love
in this world.
503
00:40:10,790 --> 00:40:14,750
Will you pray for me, lady,
When do I go to war?
504
00:40:17,030 --> 00:40:19,030
Lord I pray for you
505
00:40:20,590 --> 00:40:22,070
every day.
506
00:40:39,510 --> 00:40:42,150
I wish I could
be of greater comfort.
507
00:40:43,590 --> 00:40:46,550
I don't need comfort
I need another brother.
508
00:40:48,990 --> 00:40:50,470
What are you going to do?
509
00:40:51,270 --> 00:40:52,910
What I always do:
510
00:40:53,670 --> 00:40:54,470
nothing.
511
00:40:55,750 --> 00:40:57,270
And he knows it.
512
00:40:58,910 --> 00:41:02,670
Do you want me to say what I think?
or what you want to hear?
513
00:41:04,150 --> 00:41:08,270
I think you are behaving like a child
He always wants the toys that other children have.
514
00:41:09,630 --> 00:41:11,830
instead of sulking
because your brother is king,
515
00:41:12,070 --> 00:41:14,630
you should be a
king in his own right.
516
00:41:14,990 --> 00:41:16,670
He has an empire.
517
00:41:17,230 --> 00:41:19,470
Why can't you?
build an empire?
518
00:41:20,550 --> 00:41:21,510
He has a dynasty.
519
00:41:22,790 --> 00:41:24,590
Why can't you?
build a dynasty?
520
00:41:27,630 --> 00:41:29,230
you are my king
521
00:42:07,510 --> 00:42:08,870
KNOCK KNOCK!
522
00:42:10,110 --> 00:42:12,750
I have found
just what you need:
523
00:42:12,990 --> 00:42:15,470
a little thick wool
the sheep of England.
524
00:42:15,710 --> 00:42:17,350
Perfect for hats, gloves.
525
00:42:17,590 --> 00:42:19,510
and if you are like that
leaning, underwear.
526
00:42:22,510 --> 00:42:24,270
I come back?
527
00:42:24,510 --> 00:42:25,790
Good idea!
528
00:42:39,270 --> 00:42:40,190
I see.
529
00:42:43,110 --> 00:42:46,270
Here I was looking
someone to declare war on,
530
00:42:47,150 --> 00:42:50,270
when the answer was
right under my nose.
531
00:43:06,430 --> 00:43:08,870
According to him
laws of our kingdom,
532
00:43:09,110 --> 00:43:13,190
I, Louis XIV, King of France,
533
00:43:14,110 --> 00:43:18,030
I solemnly confirm that in my
absence due to war,
534
00:43:18,270 --> 00:43:21,190
the regency of france
and all his possessions
535
00:43:21,430 --> 00:43:23,790
will be placed
in the hands of
536
00:43:24,030 --> 00:43:26,990
Maria Theresa of Austria,
Queen of France,
537
00:43:27,750 --> 00:43:29,670
Queen Consort of Navarre.
538
00:43:53,670 --> 00:43:56,030
My mother made the
same role with distinction
539
00:43:58,270 --> 00:44:00,950
I know I can trust you
do the same.
540
00:44:16,830 --> 00:44:18,150
I'll take you to the living room
541
00:44:18,390 --> 00:44:21,830
to make some key introductions.
542
00:44:23,790 --> 00:44:25,510
Please allow me that honor?
543
00:44:28,110 --> 00:44:32,110
Knight of Lorraine,
May I introduce you to my niece, Isabelle.
544
00:44:32,990 --> 00:44:35,030
Isabelle... The knight,
545
00:44:35,710 --> 00:44:38,270
one of the court
546
00:44:39,150 --> 00:44:40,910
most charming singles.
547
00:44:43,550 --> 00:44:46,670
I can see now,
you will be a great success.
548
00:44:47,270 --> 00:44:49,990
I assure you that it is in good hands.
549
00:44:57,510 --> 00:45:00,910
Isabelle, let me introduce you to one of the
most glorious members of the royal family.
550
00:45:01,150 --> 00:45:04,190
Philip, Duke of Orleans,
Duke of Anjou and brother of the King.
551
00:45:04,470 --> 00:45:06,030
Welcome to Versailles.
552
00:45:06,270 --> 00:45:08,190
I trust that I will
Will I see you later?
553
00:45:08,430 --> 00:45:12,110
Who knows? Isabel and me
We have a very busy day ahead of us.
554
00:46:29,270 --> 00:46:30,750
Excuse me.
555
00:46:33,950 --> 00:46:36,030
I'm looking for some seeds.
556
00:46:36,270 --> 00:46:37,470
What type of seeds?
557
00:46:38,430 --> 00:46:39,750
Akar Saga.
558
00:46:40,630 --> 00:46:41,790
Why that seed?
559
00:46:42,070 --> 00:46:43,870
I am a student of
the healing arts.
560
00:46:45,350 --> 00:46:47,910
No one can take from this plant.
561
00:46:48,470 --> 00:46:50,070
I can't help you.
562
00:46:50,110 --> 00:46:51,990
I have many other seeds
with ? properties.
563
00:46:52,230 --> 00:46:54,110
maybe you have
some Ashoka seeds?
564
00:46:54,350 --> 00:46:56,350
I have a patient with
an intestinal disorder.
565
00:46:56,910 --> 00:46:58,430
Yes of course.
566
00:47:05,750 --> 00:47:07,110
Thank you.
567
00:47:08,630 --> 00:47:09,990
Excuse me.
568
00:47:20,830 --> 00:47:22,670
Aid! Aid! Aid! Aid!
569
00:47:25,550 --> 00:47:27,390
Get out of my way!
570
00:47:29,990 --> 00:47:30,670
Out!
571
00:47:30,910 --> 00:47:32,110
Do you hear me?
572
00:47:35,670 --> 00:47:36,990
Are you hurt, dear?
573
00:47:37,230 --> 00:47:39,510
May I suggest that
Can I help you get out of here?
574
00:47:40,190 --> 00:47:41,510
Come on!
575
00:47:42,550 --> 00:47:43,710
Step aside!
576
00:47:44,150 --> 00:47:45,190
Get out of my way!
577
00:48:05,110 --> 00:48:08,190
I think this was intentional.
for you, Your Majesty.
578
00:48:13,270 --> 00:48:15,110
Is it because of his hand?
579
00:48:18,110 --> 00:48:20,470
How could he do such a thing?
580
00:48:20,710 --> 00:48:22,470
How indeed?
581
00:48:36,350 --> 00:48:37,670
I'm sorry for your loss.
582
00:48:37,910 --> 00:48:40,190
He is not a man to
take your own life.
583
00:48:40,430 --> 00:48:42,350
The note was in his hand.
584
00:48:43,910 --> 00:48:45,150
Do you think otherwise?
585
00:48:45,390 --> 00:48:48,390
I don't know what to think, sir.
I'm too bound by pain right now.
586
00:48:49,110 --> 00:48:53,030
Do you understand the weight that falls
on your shoulders in my absence?
587
00:48:54,510 --> 00:48:56,910
Trust your advisors,
keep your own advice,
588
00:48:57,150 --> 00:48:58,390
hide your true feelings.
589
00:48:59,230 --> 00:49:01,870
Good morning, madam.
Make me proud of you.
590
00:49:02,110 --> 00:49:05,190
Your word will be law, Lord, and
disobedience will find its reward.
591
00:49:26,270 --> 00:49:28,190
Please take me with you.
592
00:49:29,230 --> 00:49:31,670
I will be safer in the war in Holland
593
00:49:31,910 --> 00:49:33,670
that at war here.
594
00:49:36,310 --> 00:49:38,430
Do you fear the queen as regent?
595
00:49:40,590 --> 00:49:43,630
At this moment, sir, I fear
everything I've dreamed of.
596
00:49:49,070 --> 00:49:51,030
No harm will come to you.
597
00:49:52,830 --> 00:49:55,830
Your Majesty does not see
how strong he is.
598
00:49:57,070 --> 00:49:58,590
She knows the place
you have in my heart
599
00:49:58,830 --> 00:50:01,750
and she will do anything
she can come between us.
600
00:50:06,550 --> 00:50:09,870
She will rule in my name,
not on your own.
601
00:50:11,790 --> 00:50:14,310
You decided to be you
Prime Minister himself!
602
00:50:14,550 --> 00:50:16,750
You decided to rule alone.
You chose me!
603
00:50:16,990 --> 00:50:19,510
You kissed me by the fountain.
It was you and only you!
604
00:50:19,750 --> 00:50:21,070
Enough!
605
00:50:22,910 --> 00:50:24,150
Enough!
606
00:50:30,350 --> 00:50:32,990
I can't remember the
Last time I really slept.
607
00:50:46,110 --> 00:50:47,510
Take some herbs, Your Highness.
608
00:50:49,950 --> 00:50:51,590
It will help.
609
00:50:57,510 --> 00:50:59,550
If you say they will help you.
610
00:51:00,950 --> 00:51:03,750
I do it, with all my heart.
611
00:51:31,510 --> 00:51:33,190
What happens now?
612
00:51:35,310 --> 00:51:39,790
We close our eyes and
We welcome sweet oblivion.
613
00:52:55,990 --> 00:52:58,550
You knew it was coming, right?
614
00:53:02,110 --> 00:53:03,870
Tomorrow I'm going to war.
615
00:53:07,230 --> 00:53:09,270
I needed to say goodbye.
616
00:53:41,630 --> 00:53:44,630
His Highness, the King.
617
00:53:55,310 --> 00:53:56,750
I was lost
618
00:53:57,430 --> 00:53:59,670
but now, they find me.
619
00:54:02,190 --> 00:54:03,470
I was lost
620
00:54:04,870 --> 00:54:07,470
but now, they find me.
621
00:55:18,942 --> 00:55:28,942
