Don't they ever dress proper?

564
00:39:16,888 --> 00:39:19,553
What's proper varies
throughout the world,

565
00:39:19,583 --> 00:39:21,598
depending on customs and climate.

566
00:39:21,706 --> 00:39:25,375
For their climate and according to their
customs, they were dressed properly.

00:39:25,788 --> 00:39:28,289
Are you from South Africa, sir?
Of course not.

00:39:44,131 --> 00:39:46,883
Change. Take your hairstyles.

574
00:39:46,967 --> 00:39:49,177
That's a form of rebellion, isn't it?

575
00:39:49,261 --> 00:39:51,179
Aye? What, sir?

576
00:39:51,263 --> 00:39:54,808
Don't you just do it to be different
from adults? Isn't that the reason?

577
00:39:54,892 --> 00:39:56,935
Well, they've messed up
the world a bit, haven't they, sir?

578
00:39:57,019 --> 00:39:59,687
You can say that again.
So you rebel.

579
00:39:59,772 --> 00:40:03,733
Even the way you dress
is a form of rebellion, now, isn't it?

580

the new fashion, sir.

to be different, to rebel, sir?

It is your duty
to change the world, if you can.

00:40:16,664 --> 00:40:21,418

should go and see it.

00:54:58,169 --> 00:55:00,087
It's all right.

847
00:55:06,052 --> 00:55:07,594
What's with you?

848
00:55:07,679 --> 00:55:10,264
Are you addressing me, Denham?
Yeah.

849
00:55:10,348 --> 00:55:14,101
Potts was only being funny. What'd you call
him pinhead for in front of chimney sweep?

850
00:55:14,185 --> 00:55:16,562
Going after Potts
in front of him?

851
00:55:16,646 --> 00:55:18,564
I was only having a little joke.
Sir didn't mind.

852
00:55:18,648 --> 00:55:20,263
He said we could ask
him anything, didn't he?

853
00:55:20,294 --> 00:55:21,347
You call those questions?

854
00:55:21,401 --> 00:55:24,737
Always on about his color. You've got
nothing better to talk about, have you?

855
00:55:24,821 --> 00:55:27,406
You're just wasting our time. And,
Seales, you ought to know better.

856
00:55:27,490 --> 00:55:29,408
What have I done?
I didn't say nothing.

857
00:55:29,492 --> 00:55:32,161
No, you never say nothing.
And you're half-colored too.

858

You sit on your fat ass
and keep your trap shut.

859
00:55:34,831 --> 00:55:36,832
If they want to know,
why don't they ask you?

860
00:55:36,916 --> 00:55:40,085
I'm not sir, that's why.

00:55:40,170 --> 00:55:42,087

You fancy him, that's what.

00:56:01,733 --> 00:56:04,360
Well, this is a fine how do you
do, isn't it, Potts, old mate?

865
00:56:04,444 --> 00:56:06,298

how to make a salad.

Sure. Why not?

My old man never cooked
nothing in his whole life.

872
00:56:25,215 --> 00:56:27,716
He says that's woman's work,

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

874

But suppose you're on your own,

875
00:56:32,097 --> 00:56:33,889
as you certainly will be shortly,

876
00:56:33,973 --> 00:56:36,475
then you'll have to do it for
yourselves sometimes, won't you?

Now. Hmm?

882
00:56:51,408 --> 00:56:53,325
A normal English salad.

883
00:56:53,410 --> 00:56:56,662
Not fit for human consumption,
even if you remove the usual slugs...

884
00:56:56,746 --> 00:57:00,479
and add a dash of the extraordinary...
a bit of mayonnaise.

885

well, even though you're broke.

Oh, I don't
understand you a bit, sir.

I mean, you're a toff...
and you ain't.

Huh?

903
00:57:55,638 --> 00:57:59,057
What he means is...
Well, blimey.

904
00:57:59,142 --> 00:58:02,728
I can't sort of put it into
words or anything, but...

905
00:58:02,812 --> 00:58:06,231
Well, sir, you're like us,
but you ain't.

You know what I mean,
don't you?

908
00:58:13,990 --> 00:58:16,867
Well, I... I don't know how
to answer you, except to say...

00:58:16,951 --> 00:58:20,204
that I teach you truths...
my truths.

910
00:58:20,288 --> 00:58:23,582
Yeah, it is kind of scary,
dealing with the truth.

00:58:24,626 --> 00:58:26,919
Scary and dangerous.

912

had a salad with, uh,

913
00:58:32,509 --> 00:58:35,427

Put that down, Potter! You
knew Fats couldn't do that.

You've always
had it in for him.

Yes, thank you, sir.

More frightened
than anything else.

1033
01:06:22,478 --> 01:06:24,562
Why'd you make him
do that jump?

1034
01:06:25,648 --> 01:06:27,565
He just stood there
and refused to obey.

1035
01:06:27,650 --> 01:06:32,237
When he jumped, well, he sent the
buck flying and I couldn't catch him.

1036
01:06:32,321 --> 01:06:34,239
Oh.

1037
01:06:34,323 --> 01:06:37,575

But it was him, sir!
He made Fats do it!

1046

Fats said he couldn't do it! The bloody

We was all narked.

You're supposed to be learning
self-discipline here.

1055

Potter, you owe Mr. Bell
an apology.

1056
01:07:58,949 --> 01:08:01,659
Huh? No (ALL SHOUTING)

1057
01:08:01,744 --> 01:08:05,830
Why should he apologize? Just 'cause
Bell's a bleedin' teacher, eh?

1058
01:08:05,915 --> 01:08:07,999
You'd better
answer that, Potter.

1059
01:08:08,084 --> 01:08:10,543
Do you think you behaved
like a... like an adult?

1060
01:08:22,765 --> 01:08:24,766
How about Bell apologizing
to Buckley, eh?

1061

not Mr. Bell.

hasn't he?

1071

with what I sign or won't sign.

because you're afraid,

1180
01:18:17,943 --> 01:18:19,860
MAN: Morning, Mr. Thackeray.
MAN 1: How are you. How's the kids?

1181
01:18:19,945 --> 01:18:22,113
Hello, guv.

1182
01:18:23,782 --> 01:18:26,283
Hello, sir.
It's a lovely day, ain't it?

1183
01:18:26,368 --> 01:18:28,494
Your kid ain't top of the class.

1184
01:18:28,578 --> 01:18:30,496
Who's got everything?

1185
01:18:45,887 --> 01:18:50,141
Mark! Hi! Hi!

1186
01:18:50,225 --> 01:18:52,309
Hi. You look as if
you'd won the pools.

1187
01:18:52,394 --> 01:18:54,311
Oh, better.
Whoop!

1188
01:18:54,396 --> 01:18:57,481
I got me a job... a real one...
when school ends.

1189
01:18:57,566 --> 01:19:00,651
Third assistant engineer
in a radio factory in the midlands.

1190
01:19:00,736 --> 01:19:04,321
They even sent me the fare.
Oh, that's marvelous.

1191
01:19:04,406 --> 01:19:07,491
Well, it's not that good,
but it's a start after so long.

1192
01:19:07,576 --> 01:19:11,162
Think she's gonna take
those flowers, Bert?

1193
01:19:11,246 --> 01:19:13,497

(DOOR OPENS)

1197
01:19:32,267 --> 01:19:35,352
Sit down, Miss Dare.
I'd like to talk to you.

1198
01:19:35,437 --> 01:19:37,855
Has my mum been in?
Yes.

1199
01:19:41,109 --> 01:19:44,361
The funeral
is Saturday, 10:30.

1200
01:19:47,949 --> 01:19:52,203
About my mum, sir? She's very
worried about you, Miss Dare.

1201
01:19:53,455 --> 01:19:55,372
Couldn't you
call me Pamela?

1202
01:19:57,626 --> 01:20:00,044
I think not, for the moment.

1203
01:20:00,128 --> 01:20:03,047
She says that you've
been staying out late.

1204
01:20:03,131 --> 01:20:05,049
Oh, I've just been
round to Gran's.

1205
01:20:05,133 --> 01:20:07,718
It's just round the corner.
It's not far.

1206
01:20:08,804 --> 01:20:10,721
Why haven't you told
your mother then?

1207
01:20:10,806 --> 01:20:12,723
Because she doesn't
care about me.

1208
01:20:12,808 --> 01:20:15,184
Well, now,
you know that's not true.

1209
01:20:18,355 --> 01:20:20,272
You're not in trouble, are you?

1210
01:20:20,357 --> 01:20:22,566
(SCOFFS)
Oh, no, sir.

1211
01:20:22,651 --> 01:20:25,736
Nowadays that's only
for fools, isn't it?

1212
01:20:25,821 --> 01:20:27,905
We're the luckiest bunch of kids,

1213
01:20:27,989 --> 01:20:30,658
the luckiest generation
that's ever been, aren't we?

1214
01:20:30,742 --> 01:20:32,785
We're the first to be really free...

1215
01:20:32,869 --> 01:20:35,746
to enjoy life, if we want,

1216
01:20:35,831 --> 01:20:37,748
without fear.

1217
01:20:38,917 --> 01:20:40,501
Well, what is the trouble?

1218
01:20:40,585 --> 01:20:44,171
Look, if you don't want to talk,
just say the word.

1219
01:20:44,256 --> 01:20:47,424
It doesn't bother me.

1220
01:20:47,509 --> 01:20:50,761
Well, it was all right
up until about a year ago.

1221
01:20:50,846 --> 01:20:52,763
Of course I miss Dad.
H-He was wonderful.

1222
01:20:52,848 --> 01:20:56,100
But... it's just one
of those things, isn't it?

1223
01:20:58,353 --> 01:21:01,438
Mum works up in a dress shop
up in the West End,

1224
01:21:01,523 --> 01:21:03,440
and we got on fine.

1225
01:21:05,193 --> 01:21:07,611
Then men friends
started calling on her.

1226
01:21:09,030 --> 01:21:11,448
Well, you know
what neighbors are like.

1227
01:21:13,201 --> 01:21:16,120
That's all, really.
There's nothing else to tell.

1228
01:21:17,747 --> 01:21:19,665
She doesn't like me.

1229
01:21:19,749 --> 01:21:21,959
I'm in the way.

1230
01:21:22,043 --> 01:21:24,962
Well, she's young and pretty,
isn't she?

1231
01:21:25,046 --> 01:21:27,756
I shall be glad when I can
leave school and be on my own.

1232
01:21:29,384 --> 01:21:31,802
Obviously, your mother loves you,

1233
01:21:31,887 --> 01:21:34,388
and you owe her much more
than any teacher.

1234
01:21:34,472 --> 01:21:36,974
I think you're wrong
about her.

1235
01:21:37,058 --> 01:21:41,312
Did she tell you that I found her
with one of her friends?

1236
01:21:41,396 --> 01:21:44,481
At home? At my home?

1237
01:21:44,566 --> 01:21:47,192
No, I bet she didn't,
but she was.

1238
01:21:47,277 --> 01:21:50,529
All families have problems.
I can't solve that for you.

1239
01:21:50,614 --> 01:21:52,531
But staying out late won't help.

1240
01:21:52,616 --> 01:21:54,992
Well, it helps me.
I can't stand the sight of her,

1241
01:21:55,076 --> 01:21:57,995
and if you were me,
you'd feel the same.

1242
01:21:58,079 --> 01:21:59,997
I'm in no position to judge.

1243
01:22:00,081 --> 01:22:03,167
I know that people make mistakes.
Are you saying it's my fault?

1244
01:22:03,251 --> 01:22:05,169
I'm saying that forgiveness
is the gift of God...

1245
01:22:05,253 --> 01:22:08,547
that people make mistakes... that it's up
to you to make peace with your mother.

1246
01:22:08,632 --> 01:22:12,426
Why should I? I haven't done anything.
Grow up, Miss Dare.

1247
01:22:12,510 --> 01:22:14,678
It's up to you to give her
another chance.

1248
01:22:14,763 --> 01:22:17,389
I told you what she did.
Why are you taking her side?

1249
01:22:17,474 --> 01:22:20,184
Because you're wrong
not to give her a second chance.

1250
01:22:20,268 --> 01:22:22,770
Everybody deserves that.

1251
01:22:24,022 --> 01:22:25,940
I thought you'd understand.
I thought you were different.

1252
01:22:26,024 --> 01:22:27,942
I thought I could trust you.

1253
01:22:28,026 --> 01:22:29,944
But you're just as Denham said.

1254
01:22:30,028 --> 01:22:32,112
