1
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:25,920
How did you get hold of one like that?
2
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,400
I didn't do that.
"Countess de Valois" bought it.
3
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,680
With a little help
from the poor fallen women.
4
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,440
Damn it, Jeanne.
How much do you shovel in?
5
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,440
Plenty.
6
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:42,680
Since she miscarried, the queen has
clung to her other children.
7
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,600
It is said that her skin color
is like sour milk.
8
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,000
But her absence
fits into our plans.
9
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,480
The common courtiers
can't disprove my story.
10
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,000
they think
that I am the queen's new friend.
11
00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:06,520
What about the necklace?
12
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,360
How will you persuade the goldsmith?
13
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,440
I don't want that.
I just have to convince the target.
14
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,720
Which you still haven't found.
15
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,560
Villette, you worry too much.
16
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,960
Versailles teems with rich idiots,
who wants to please the queen.
17
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,760
I just need to find a fool,
there is enough desperation to
18
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,600
to want to buy the world's most expensive
necklace for her.
19
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,760
-You make me look like mesdames!
- No, it looks nice.
20
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,280
Stop messing around.
21
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,480
Stop.
22
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:47,280
-Mousseline!
-Your Majesty.
23
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,080
I'm perfectly fine.
I have rested long enough.
24
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,840
Take care of the dauphin.
He has had a very restless night.
25
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,240
-What is it?
-A gift.
26
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,840
Can you take care of Mousseline?
27
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,640
So come. Let's dry it off.
28
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:12,160
This perfume lifts my spirits,
when I'm not quite myself.
29
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,080
I am not used to this weakness.
30
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:20,720
-What if I don't stay like before?
- You will be.
31
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,960
You are stronger than you think.
32
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,880
Please go.
33
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,320
Have you found the letters?
34
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:41,840
I have investigated the theft
discreetly.
35
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,640
- Nothing has been found.
-Where are they?
36
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,080
Do you understand that?
37
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:54,120
If they reach Louis,
will he divorce me.
38
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,040
The thief also took other things.
39
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,080
It is likely that he does not know
what he has.
40
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,560
Do you remember how cold it was?
41
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,800
He must have used them
as ignition.
42
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,000
Breteuil, if he burned them,
43
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,640
would the heat had illuminated my words!
44
00:04:22,840 --> 00:04:25,520
- It is much appreciated.
-Of course. With pleasure.
45
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,680
To the poor fallen women, thank you.
46
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,560
-Excuse me, are you drunk?
-And then what?
47
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:40,400
I am married to a miserable man
and I live a miserable existence.
48
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,720
I have to find joy somewhere.
49
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:49,080
There is the Countess de Valois.
I have to talk to her.
50
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,400
Maybe you should
start a charity.
51
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,000
Or at least get a hobby.
52
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:04,080
People will start confusing you
with a fish wife.
53
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,400
Do you know the Countess de Valois?
54
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,760
Is she really friends
with the queen?
55
00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:15,120
Let me tell you a secret.
56
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,480
You must get over your crush
in Antoinette, it is pitiful.
57
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,400
Pathetic!
58
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,840
Princess de Lamballe seems sad.
59
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,880
She will do anything
to gain the queen's favor.
60
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:34,680
The problem is,
61
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,400
that I still lack payment
for the arms to America.
62
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,200
Talk to Calonne. It's his business now.
63
00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:43,640
Thanks.
64
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,920
I was hoping to make money
on my new piece,
65
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,400
The Marriage of Figaro,
but your Majesty forbade it.
66
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:54,040
What did you expect?
It makes fun of the ruling classes.
67
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,680
Their words were dangerous,
Beaumarchais.
68
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,280
You're right, I went too far,
but i have made changes,
69
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,680
and the piece is now
a harmless romantic farce.
70
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,200
Your Majesty, help me.
71
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:10,760
They have always been a patron of the arts.
72
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:13,480
We loved yours
The Barber of Seville.
73
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:18,240
We loved you in it.
Do you remember that, Your Majesty?
74
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:20,800
They made the theater shine.
75
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:26,680
Would a performance be so bad,
if only the humor is left?
76
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,920
Don't we all need a little fun?
77
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,840
I read the new pages.
78
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,160
If politics is not mentioned,
religion or government,
79
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,360
can we start with
a private performance at Versailles.
80
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,840
It will be superficial entertainment
without consequences.
81
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,200
I hope so. I would hate
to lock you in the Bastille.
82
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,920
It will be fun. Really fun.
83
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:16,640
I should... I have to talk to Rose.
84
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:21,080
Yes. About costumes.
85
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,120
Excuse me.
86
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,920
What did Fersen say, Antoinette?
87
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:02,360
- Nothing. He barely looked at me.
- He must be looking forward to seeing you.
88
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,480
No, that would be worse.
89
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,240
I must avoid him.
I hope he doesn't stay long.
90
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,480
You deserve love, Antoinette.
91
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,040
I was born to duty,
not for happiness.
92
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:23,240
At least the little man's is
fever better. Are we feeling better?
93
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,880
And you, you stand by my side.
94
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,200
I got you the job so you could
help me pay off the debt.
95
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,160
There is less in the treasury,
than you might think.
96
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,640
I can only give you 300,000
so far.
97
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,120
Saint James must have 400,000
in this month.
98
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,040
If he wants to break my legs,
I send him to you.
99
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,200
Uh, can I?
100
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,760
Powder your hair, Calonne.
The king is calling you.
101
00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,480
Duchess de Polignac.
I'm not interrupting, am I?
102
00:09:00,560 --> 00:09:05,640
- Not at all. Good evening.
-Good evening.
103
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,320
They had to cut expenses, but
new bills arrive daily.
104
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,480
They actually asked me to repair
the catastrophic hole in the economy.
105
00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:21,080
It is said that France is weak.
Cuts would confirm that.
106
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,320
They need investment
to show strength.
107
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,680
New roads and prisons.
Invest in your vision.
108
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:31,480
A new port at Cherbourg.
Cuts are not the solution.
109
00:09:31,560 --> 00:09:35,560
-They need to spend money.
- I have no money.
110
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,920
Then we have to increase the loans.
111
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,840
Show me a plan.
112
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,360
I don't know. Should I play theater
when the dauphin is sick?
113
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,800
He's just teething.
114
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,760
Tell me everything. How's it going?
with the new position in the Palais-Royal?
115
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,520
Duke of Orléans
treat me well
116
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,960
I hope his son does too.
117
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,560
If Chartres gives you trouble,
You are always welcome back.
118
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,800
I know that.
119
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,000
Is this The Wedding of Figaro?
120
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,200
Beaumarchais recruited me.
My sour mine
121
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,560
obviously fits perfectly
to Marcellina.
122
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,920
-But you don't like theatre.
- No, that's silly.
123
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,960
But I need a hobby.
I considered gardening,
124
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,560
but this allows me to
to annoy you, so it was.
125
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,640
Now don't be late
for your first test day.
126
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,920
Yes, ma'am! At once, madam!
127
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,280
Sorry. All roles are filled.
128
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,520
They can't hold me
from her forever.
129
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,480
-Why not?
-She will also get tired of you.
130
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:02,200
Perhaps. But you don't see
the whole chessboard, Lamballe.
131
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,280
Only the queen.
132
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,440
Wait for me!
133
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,560
Goodbye, Your Majesty, friends.
134
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,120
Let me introduce ours
actors and set the stage.
135
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,520
Our hero, Figaro,
is a man of the world
136
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,960
who have experienced
both ups and downs
137
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,240
and has had to live on his merits.
138
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,160
We meet Figaro
the night before his wedding
139
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,680
with the beautiful Susanna.
140
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,200
Figaro's master is Count Almaviva.
Like many other powerful nobles
141
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,880
has he a right to take
the virginity of the local brides
142
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,400
the night before their wedding.
143
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:59,520
And he is keen on
to seduce the lovely Susanna.
144
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,800
Oh! Here we have Count Almaviva.
145
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:12,160
Your Majesty. All together.
146
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,720
Here is a script for you.
Take the stage.
147
00:12:24,680 --> 00:12:31,000
Now that we're all here,
let's let Figaro set the scene.
148
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:35,240
Saint George,
act five, scene three, please.
149
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,440
“Woman, woman, woman!
150
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,560
What a weak one,
deceitful creature you are.
151
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:50,600
No living thing
can deny its nature.
152
00:12:50,680 --> 00:12:53,240
Is it your role to cheat?
153
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,800
After she had sworn
before Her Grace,
154
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,840
that she would not go, and herself
while the ceremony was going on…”
155
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,560
Parliament in Paris
is already working against me.
156
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,760
What if they don't want to approve
an extension of my loans?
157
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,040
-There is another way.
-No.
158
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,160
I can't raise taxes
for the clergy and nobility.
159
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,960
Why not? While you have been
distracted by war,
160
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,800
have they turned back time
to the Middle Ages.
161
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,880
They have taken control
the parliament.
162
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,320
They do not contribute to the state at all.
163
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,920
France does not develop until then
financial system is fair,
164
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,800
and one is taxed according to means,
not origin.
165
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,240
Our situation is precarious enough.
166
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,320
I refuse to light a fuse
under the country.
167
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,360
are we done
or do you also want to take a bath?
168
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,680
We are done.
169
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,600
Find a way to get my new loans
approved in parliament.
170
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:08,160
Yes, Your Majesty.
171
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:19,440
Do you remember the Swede who had to
be the queen's favorite?
172
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,720
-He plays opposite her.
-No.
173
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,200
She has a hard time saying
something coherent.
174
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:29,800
-Do you have a purpose for teasing?
-Maybe the queen deserves it.
175
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,200
-For your information.
-Thanks.
176
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,680
For your information.
Every evening at 21.00.
177
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,960
Cagliostro. Cardinal Rohan
has apparently become his benefactor
178
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,320
and will launch him in Paris.
179
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,560
Is it cheating?
"Occultist, Alchemist and Healer."
180
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,400
I met him in Strasbourg.
181
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:53,040
Unlike most doctors,
he heals more than he kills.
182
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:57,720
-He knows how to create a stir.
-Popularity is power.
183
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,240
The Palais-Royal would be
a perfect place for his audience.
184
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,000
You should invite him and hear,
what he has to say.
185
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,960
COUNT CAGLIOSTRO
186
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:08,400
Look who's here.
187
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,880
It is unbearable.
I have to withdraw from the play.
188
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,400
Your Majesty.
189
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,920
A cardinal,
who wants a queen.
190
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:35,720
"I'm not suggesting... I..."
191
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,720
Why so many words?
192
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:42,200
They will never find the feeling
if you don't look up.
193
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,920
Let's move on.
Act One, Scene Eight.
194
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:53,920
The count's first attempt
on seduction. Come on.
195
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,080
Come on.
196
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,040
“Has something made you sad, Susanna?
You sit and talk to yourself."
197
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,000
“Would you like something, sir?
198
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,560
If I were seen alone with you…”
199
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,280
"It would be very inconvenient,
if I was seen here.
200
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,360
But you must be aware
my feelings.
201
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:28,960
I assume Basilio has
Told you I love you."
202
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,480
Excuse me.
203
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,720
“I only have one more moment
to explain my plan, so listen."
204
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:45,480
“I only have one eye…
I... I won't listen!”
205
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,160
- Stop! That's fine. Your Majesty?
-What?
206
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,240
What's wrong?
207
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:56,000
Count Fersen, Almaviva is dying
of longing for this woman.
208
00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:01,440
Look at her. He must have her.
209
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,880
And, Your Majesty,
we must be able to believe your refusal.
210
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,360
Unleash yourselves.
211
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,040
Release the emotions.
212
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,600
Again!
213
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,800
Antoinette. Please stop.
214
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:40,000
I thought we could be friends.
215
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,640
-I don't want to be friends.
- I withdraw from the play.
216
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,560
-I don't want to hurt you.
- It's too late.
217
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,960
You were gone for three years, and now ter
you you as if nothing happened.
218
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,600
Why are you here?
219
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,440
I have applied for the command
over the Swedish regiment.
220
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,800
-Why are you here?
-Because I wanted to see you again.
221
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,480
Hold up! I haven't heard anything from you,
not a word.
222
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,240
I had to read the reports
to read if you were dead.
223
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,720
I couldn't write.
224
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,560
My letters would have remained
intercepted and put you in danger.
225
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,480
What happened between us
belongs to the past.
226
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,040
You are chasing a memory.
227
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,920
-I have never forgotten you.
- Now please stop!
228
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:38,560
I'm not the girl you knew.
I am the mother of the future king.
229
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,640
You are right about that.
You have changed.
230
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,440
But I think
that you have sacrificed something of yourself.
231
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,360
And I have to admit that it gets
me to love you even more.
232
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:12,320
-Susanna?
-Would you like something, sir?
233
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,080
It would be…
234
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:23,800
very inconvenient
if I was seen here.
235
00:19:26,360 --> 00:19:29,560
But you must be aware
my feelings.
236
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,880
Cheeky Antoinette!
237
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,440
Who are you?
238
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,120
Marguerite de Gourbillon.
239
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:40,000
Beaumarchais has hired me
to help you with your lines.
240
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,840
- I don't need help.
-Haven't you?
241
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,680
-What have you got?
- He thinks you are hopeless.
242
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,400
Don't you have any money?
243
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,160
I can shamelessly flatter,
but you hear enough of that.
244
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:55,120
- Do I?
- Their breath stinks of cognac.
245
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,200
Let me guess:
Provence does not satisfy you?
246
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,200
- How dare you!
- I also have a husband.
247
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,320
-Yes.
-Out in the country.
248
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,400
But I chose not to
marriage ruin my life.
249
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,880
They know nothing about my marriage.
250
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,280
I have seen your husband
strut around...
251
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,280
like a very small rooster.
252
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:34,040
There is freedom here,
if you want it.
253
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,680
-Why am I hosting this?
-Cagliostro has an amazing ability.
254
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:56,760
He predicted
the death of the queen mother precisely.
255
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,480
-Cagliostro gives me ant crawl.
- Forget him.
256
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,960
- We need to talk to his benefactor.
-The cardinal?
257
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,800
He is a Rohan, one of the Elders
and wealthiest families in France.
258
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:21,080
He is the perfect victim.
Greedy, stupid and naive.
259
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,840
I use this water
to gather my attention.
260
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:29,040
To listen to the angels in the spheres.
261
00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:32,000
A trick from a fairground.
262
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:38,080
There is a message
to a clergyman.
263
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,960
They will get close
a beautiful woman.
264
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:43,680
Oh god.
265
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:47,720
But double sorrow
hardens her heart
266
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,920
and makes her more powerful
than any man.
267
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,800
-He's talking about you.
-Or every other woman in here.
268
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,880
Or do you also believe in your horoscope?
269
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,040
We're going.
270
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,440
Think I succeeded
to get you away from Cardinal Rohan.
271
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,840
He liked to keep me on a leash.
272
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,560
Their luxuries
keeps you close, too?
273
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,160
Chartres is not my benefactor,
but my protégé.
274
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,880
- So? What do you teach him?
-Philosophy, politics.
275
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,200
He can bring about change in France,
276
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:25,960
but he is lazy.
I hope you can change that.
277
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,440
What do you suggest?
278
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,480
He seems smitten with your girlfriend.
279
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,800
You do too.
You stare at her.
280
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:37,280
I will see when the big one
magician conjures her away.
281
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,200
Honestly, how can you
take it seriously?
282
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,160
Since I was kicked out
of Versailles,
283
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,240
must i find my entertainment
where I can.
284
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,040
Count Cagliostro, please come.
285
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:55,920
They are magicians.
Show us your best trick.
286
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,560
I consider myself
as a more curious type.
287
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,240
- I seek hidden knowledge.
-Of course.
288
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,320
If you look closely,
is science, magic and religion
289
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,560
not very far apart.
290
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,360
Nobody believes in God anymore.
But they believe in Cagliostro.
291
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,560
Be careful what you say, cousin.
God gives us the right to rule.
292
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:21,600
That he gave your brother that right gets me
to doubt him even more.
293
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,760
-See.
-There is one more message.
294
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,040
Yes.
295
00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:30,600
The Dauphin will not inherit
The throne of France.
296
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,520
France will look for a new king.
297
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:39,040
A prince of the blood,
which is present in this room.
298
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,920
good night
299
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:27,320
"Are unruly,
and much more than you think…”
300
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,960
-"I don't want..."
- Go.
301
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,520
-Stay!
-Lady?
302
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,600
I practice.
303
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,320
Did you really mean to?
to perform?
304
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,520
-Why not?
- You have no talent.
305
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,200
Even in the highest strata of society
306
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,640
women only get condescension
and contempt of men.
307
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,120
By showing false respect
we are lured into slavery.
308
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,640
If we own something,
we are treated like children.
309
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,680
If we step beside,
we are punished as adults.
310
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,240
In all your dealings with us,
311
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,600
deserves your views
only disgust or pity.
312
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:09,320
Beaumarchais is talentless. He
wasn't even born into the nobility.
313
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,040
-Oh no!
-He came up with his title.
314
00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:14,160
Yet he sees us so clearly.
315
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,280
That's the feeling we were looking for.
316
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,160
And again, to be sure.
317
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:52,240
For love to whom you generously
abolished a wretched privilege.
318
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,160
Speak, my dear.
319
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,120
To speak freely is a right,
you have for life
320
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,000
so you might as well start now.
321
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:03,760
It's not something I want.
Just leave me alone, please!
322
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:07,120
But first say what you wanted to say.
323
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,120
- I don't remember what it was.
-On a wife's duty.
324
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,160
Come talk to me in the garden later,
when it's getting dark.
325
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,400
I will make it worthwhile.
326
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:29,600
If I take your place in the garden,
you don't have to go, sweet girl.
327
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,880
Where will you meet?
328
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,320
The garden is the only thing I remember.
329
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,960
Don't you want to kiss your mother-in-law,
my beautiful Sus?
330
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,600
I was very unhappy
when I was a child.
331
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,200
I was about to stay
the most unhappy wife,
332
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,840
but now I am blessed.
333
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,240
You clearly have no idea,
what has taken place.
334
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,440
But you will probably tell me that.
335
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:48,960
Your wife plays a maid
on the stage in front of Fersen.
336
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,960
Is Count Fersen in the play?
337
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,200
His modern ideas
eroding our position.
338
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,720
You must stop the decay,
before it affects the entire building.
339
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,840
Cancel the performance.
340
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:05,880
-Two weeks.
-No.
341
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,200
-Two weeks?
-Two weeks.
342
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:13,320
Two weeks at anchor off Finistère.
Then we sailed across the Atlantic
343
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,440
by a detour
to avoid the English,
344
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,200
and then we went ashore at Rhode Island.
345
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,760
-How exciting.
-Unfortunately not.
346
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,440
The English fleet blockaded us,
347
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:28,360
and we were stuck in camp at Newport
for a whole year.
348
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,440
A year?
349
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:35,600
I'm sure you found ways
to entertain yourself on.
350
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,760
Were the women very beautiful?
351
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,800
One or two passed the test.
352
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:49,040
But I was more interested
in the local nature and wildlife.
353
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,720
Liar.
354
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:57,960
All that I see of the world,
is the view from a window.
355
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,440
I know nothing.
356
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,720
Then I will be your eyes.
357
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,640
Or...
358
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:19,560
You could stay here.
I can find a position for you.
359
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:23,840
Say yes.
360
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:28,480
I don't want to be another person
who needs alms from you.
361
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,880
This new command sends me
just a few hours north.
362
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,920
When I have leave,
can i come and visit you
363
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,400
I like that.
364
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,760
Using the cardinal as a target
is crazy.
365
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,800
The Rohan family is powerful. They
treat their enemies mercilessly.
366
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:06,040
Just. The jeweler will not
doubt a cardinal.
367
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,960
If we get caught,
we will be hanged.
368
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:14,960
We have enough to buy a farm.
I will provide for you…
369
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,080
-Will you provide for me?
- Yes, I want to.
370
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:26,400
You've been in Paris too long.
All the good country in this country
371
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,080
belongs to the nobility and the church.
372
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,880
Buy the farm if you want.
373
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,960
You will end up with
to sleep in a pig pen
374
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,600
and wear yourself out,
while everything you produce
375
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:43,520
goes to a gentleman who wants to mash himself
and fuck your wife and your daughters.
376
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,800
Only the rich are safe from starvation.
377
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:54,240
Only the fabulous,
unheard of and untouchable realm.
378
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,520
You are either with me
or against me.
379
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,440
forgive me father
for I have sinned.
380
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,960
I tried to seduce
a wonderful and virtuous woman.
381
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,440
-Countess Jeanne de Valois.
- Valois?
382
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:20,520
Yes. She is a descendant
of King Henry II.
383
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:26,080
I wanted to take advantage of Jeanne because
her influence with the queen.
384
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,800
They are close friends.
385
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,720
I have heard that the Countess
got Calonne the job.
386
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,800
Tell me more.
387
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,960
Good day, gentlemen. You are invited
for the performance The Marriage of Figaro.
388
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:47,720
Good day. They should come
and see our performance.
389
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:51,040
Ladies, you are invited
for our performance
390
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:54,000
The Wedding of Figaro.
I hope you come and see it.
391
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,440
-I'd better stick my eyes out.
- Well, now.
392
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,880
Good day gentlemen,
You are invited to the performance.
393
00:32:59,960 --> 00:33:01,560
THE WEDDING OF FIGARO
394
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,080
I hope you will come
and watching The Marriage of Figaro.
395
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,480
Of course.
396
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:07,960
Good day, ladies.
397
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:13,000
You are invited to the performance
The Marriage of Figaro...
398
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,920
Countess de Valois, right?
399
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:24,480
It's strange.
Their name is everywhere.
400
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:28,200
And yet, until a few weeks ago
ago, we had no idea who you were.
401
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,520
What are you saying, princess?
402
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,720
That you might just claim
to be friends with the queen
403
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,760
to collect
for your "charity".
404
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:44,880
I'm not a thief.
405
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,920
Although I have to admit,
that there are chapters in my life,
406
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,160
which I am not proud of.
407
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:55,640
But the queen is kind
and forgive my mistakes.
408
00:33:55,720 --> 00:34:00,480
You might want to know that
if you were still close to her.
409
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,000
Where did you get it from?
410
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:12,440
A gift from the Queen.
It's adorable, isn't it?
411
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,360
-Are you invited to her play?
-Yes.
412
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,560
Now I remember that the queen
mentioned your charity.
413
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,800
I will look forward to teaching you
better to know, princess.
414
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:29,640
We have not been introduced.
Cardinal Louis de Rohan.
415
00:34:29,720 --> 00:34:31,920
Cardinal.
416
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,040
Maybe we could make a deal
a time to talk in private.
417
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,360
Excuse me.
I didn't want to disturb you.
418
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,840
- You don't.
- I just wanted to come and...
419
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:00,800
He just fell asleep.
420
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:05,080
I feel like I'm so busy
that I neglect my family.
421
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,400
How is my wife?
422
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,920
The play works wonders
for her health. She seems happy.
423
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,000
Well. That's good.
424
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,480
And Count Fersen? Is he...?
425
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,520
I guess she liked him once.
426
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,280
They have nothing to fear.
427
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,200
I wasn't supposed to
have doubted her.
428
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:37,120
Things fill the mind,
when you have no one to talk to.
429
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,000
I know that feeling well.
430
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,520
Thank you, Duchess.
431
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,760
What are you looking for?
Maybe a kiss from Count Fersen?
432
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,040
I'm not telling anyone.
433
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:27,160
- Don't you?
- Not right now, anyway.
434
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:33,840
Maybe we're right
a privacy here.
435
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,080
Don't think I like you now.
436
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:47,280
-Do you have...
- I heard nothing.
437
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,240
Oh god.
438
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,960
They trust people too easily,
Your Majesty.
439
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,080
But some close to you
do not wish you the best.
440
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,480
They would sacrifice you
to promote themselves.
441
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,320
Who?
442
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:06,560
Saint George,
if you know something, say it.
443
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:10,920
- Just tell me.
-Just be careful, Antoinette.
444
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:17,840
Fersen.
445
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,480
Josephine knows it.
She knows about us.
446
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:42,960
- We were...
-Forgive me.
447
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,320
-I had a question about a scene.
- I hope that answered…
448
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,320
This performance has been cancelled.
449
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,200
- Louis...
-Remember who you are.
450
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:24,800
I am so sorry, Beaumarchais.
I couldn't complete the play.
451
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:31,360
- The disease came over me.
-She was terribly ill.
452
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,000
We move the show,
until you are well.
453
00:38:39,720 --> 00:38:42,040
But...
454
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,480
Maybe the king won't allow that?
455
00:38:51,240 --> 00:38:52,760
I understand.
456
00:38:55,040 --> 00:39:01,000
I had hoped
for the sake of my finances,
457
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,200
that this performance would lead to a
professional performance in Paris.
458
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,040
Sorry, Beaumarchais.
459
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,720
How much did Louis really see?
460
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,920
Nothing. Everything!
461
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:28,600
The last thing I want
is to hurt him. What should I do?
462
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,200
You have to show him
that he has not lost you.
463
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:36,680
How?
464
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:12,880
It was silly.
465
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,680
It was so stupid
to accept that role.
466
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,880
It made me seen
as inappropriate. I'm sorry.
467
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,920
If others had discovered you
alone with him…
468
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,040
It will never happen again.
469
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,440
Never.
470
00:40:32,720 --> 00:40:34,720
I promise.
471
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,360
Was Beaumarchais very upset?
472
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:44,840
Yes.
473
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,920
He shouldn't
be punished for my mistake.
474
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,640
Maybe you could give him
a public appearance in Paris
475
00:40:52,720 --> 00:40:54,560
with professional actors?
476
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,680
The people will love it,
477
00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:00,760
and Beaumarchais
might finally make some money.
478
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,400
I like
the latest version.
479
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,120
It will probably be popular.
I will consider it.
480
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,080
I feel terrible.
481
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,480
Will you forgive me?
482
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,200
Stay with me.
483
00:41:58,240 --> 00:42:00,040
Slowly.
484
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,000
-Your Eminence.
-Countess.
485
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:22,400
They are probably late for it,
but finally got in.
486
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:42,840
-Henri II de Valois, my ancestor.
- I have presents.
487
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,200
A substantial donation
for your little charity.
488
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,920
The poor fallen women
is in debt to you.
489
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,760
Sit down.
490
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,760
The women you support
are shameless sinners.
491
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,640
Do you indulge in this sort of thing too?
492
00:43:04,720 --> 00:43:08,280
I am a respectable woman, and that
so are those for whom I am responsible.
493
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,960
It is men like you who offend
God with that kind of question.
494
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,680
-Go. Take your money with you.
- Countess, you misunderstand.
495
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:20,560
-You don't want to seduce me then?
- Oh dear, no!
496
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,040
How did you get that idea?
497
00:43:28,720 --> 00:43:33,160
Forgive me, Cardinal. Occasionally
I offend unintentionally.
498
00:43:33,240 --> 00:43:38,000
I have the same error. That's how I came
on edge with the queen.
499
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:43,240
Then we are soul mates.
And now close friends.
500
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,040
Ask your waiter for wine.
I'll stay a little longer.
501
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:49,320
What a lovely idea, but impossible.
502
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,560
I have to meet with
other benefactors tonight.
503
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,760
But will the queen
hear about my donation?
504
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,640
Yes, but of course you have to
don't mention it to her.
505
00:43:57,720 --> 00:44:00,120
She believes that charity
should remain private.
506
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,360
But she usually sends
a thank you letter for larger donations.
507
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,160
-When can I expect...
-And now, unfortunately, I have to go.
508
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:16,680
How much?
509
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,240
Enough for one more month's rent here
510
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:25,800
and to buy the finest ink.
It's time to be queen.
511
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,120
Sorry. Excuse me.
512
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:55,120
Welcome
the king and queen in Paris.
513
00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,680
Good evening.
514
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:04,320
Please take a seat
for the official premiere
515
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,880
on The Wedding of Figaro.
516
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:23,520
-What will this lead to?
- Just wait.
517
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,640
19 feet by 26.
518
00:45:38,720 --> 00:45:41,640
Look, Figaro. My wedding kiss.
519
00:45:41,720 --> 00:45:44,440
do you think
Does it sit better like this?
520
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,200
My dear, it's perfect.
521
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:52,360
Would you like something, sir?
If I was seen alone with you…
522
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:56,400
It would be very inconvenient,
if I was seen here.
523
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:59,160
But you must know my feelings.
524
00:45:59,240 --> 00:46:04,200
Susanna, do you mean he had
intending to seduce you?
525
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:09,080
No. His Grace would not do it
all that trouble for a servant.
526
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,240
He tried to buy me.
527
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,920
Message him immediately,
that you will meet him in the garden.
528
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,320
Take this pen,
then we decide the place.
529
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,120
- Write to him?
- There are no other options.
530
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,240
But madam,
it should be you who…
531
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,640
I take full responsibility.
532
00:46:27,720 --> 00:46:30,200
New text for the old melody.
533
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:37,240
“How sweet is the gentle evening breeze
under the broad chestnut trees..."
534
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:43,760
"Under the broad chestnut trees."
535
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:47,600
- Go on.
-Don't you think he will understand?
536
00:46:54,960 --> 00:47:01,880
Woman, woman, woman. Sure one
weak, deceitful creature you are.
537
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:05,400
No living thing
can deny its nature.
538
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,360
Is it your role to cheat?
539
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,400
After she had sworn
before Her Grace,
540
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:12,840
that she didn't want to go.
541
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:17,560
No, count, you won't have her.
They won't get her!
542
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:21,720
Just because you are a mighty lord,
You are not necessarily a genius.
543
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:26,120
Nobility, wealth, rank, high positions.
544
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,760
That kind of thing makes a man so proud.
545
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:35,040
But what have you done for?
to deserve them? Just being born.
546
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,920
If your privileges are removed,
so what is left?
547
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:42,200
-An ordinary man.
-Have you changed the text?
548
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,960
-While I was one among many...
- That's true.
549
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,360
...I had to use
more skill and intelligence
550
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:52,960
just to survive, and then you dare
to cross blades with me?
551
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,160
-Did you agree to this?
-No.
552
00:47:56,240 --> 00:48:00,240
-Beaumarchais betrayed us.
- Well, but a man has to eat...
553
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,640
so I sharpen my pen and ask
on the latest debate topic.
554
00:48:04,720 --> 00:48:10,800
I have been told that if I
avoids mentioning government,
555
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:14,040
religion, politics,
556
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:18,920
morality, public figures,
influential bodies, the opera,
557
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,720
or any other form of theatre,
and anyone who is something
558
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,120
I can freely publish what I want!
559
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,920
Once I have permission
from two or three censors.
560
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,240
Stop the censorship!
561
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,560
I will not discuss it.
The case is closed.
562
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,400
- We can probably save the situation.
-"We"?
563
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:10,000
You clearly have no understanding
for politics or affairs of state.
564
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,000
It's not fair!
565
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:15,360
Louis, you never let me
to understand, but I can help.
566
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,640
You have done enough.
567
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:22,280
It's not my fault.
He was supposed to be our friend!
568
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,720
A crowd has gathered
at the Bastille.
569
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,600
They call Beaumarchais a hero
and you a despot.
570
00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:31,360
We'll never get rid of that piece.
It will haunt us.
571
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,000
I am the king!
572
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:23,200
They shout that Beaumarchais
to be released from the Bastille.
573
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,800
I have underestimated you.
574
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:30,440
I didn't think there would be
arise so much anger over a piece.
575
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:32,880
The arrest shows
what a tyrant louis is
576
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:37,080
and that popularity
can be lost and won.
577
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:40,440
- I am hardly a man of the people.
-Not yet.
578
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:42,360
To fulfill Cagliostro's prophecy,
579
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,240
may you replace louis
in their hearts and minds.
580
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:49,560
A king anointed by his people,
just like in England.
581
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,600
A constitutional monarch.
582
00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:01,040
I told Louis.
I warned him.
583
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:08,880
I have tried to support him,
but it is hopeless.
584
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:12,200
A king must be steadfast.
585
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,840
Authority.
586
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,240
-How long has he been gone?
-Several hours.
587
00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:45,000
Where have you been looking?
588
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:49,520
They have checked to the east.
Now they check to the west.
589
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:51,880
Saddle my horse.
I'm heading north.
590
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:53,920
It won't work, Your Majesty.
591
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,920
Enter Louis' office.
Then I'll explain it there.
592
00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,480
Bring me Calonne's records.
593
00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,840
- Call the Council of Ministers together.
-What are you doing?
594
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,680
- I must secure the king's papers.
- It is not necessary.
595
00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:13,600
I will get started
the initial paperwork.
596
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,160
You don't decide here.
597
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,880
No, not yet.
598
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,960
But don't worry.
When I take over the regency,
599
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:31,080
shall I take care of you?
and your children.
600
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,000
How dare you!
601
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,120
It is too early
to adopt this position.
602
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:40,280
The news must not reach Paris before we
agree on a public statement.
603
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,720
- I know my duty.
- Vergennes.
604
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,000
Let's wait and see
how the situation develops.
605
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:50,440
No, no hesitation. The people must know
that the crown is safe in my hands.
606
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:56,000
Provence. Issue a statement that,
that the king has sprained his ankle.
607
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:04,320
We were worried about you.
Very concerned.
608
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:07,280
You won't get rid of me that easily.
609
00:53:13,720 --> 00:53:16,440
Provence seems disappointed.
610
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,560
-The Doctor, Your Majesty.
- Thank you, Breteuil.
611
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:35,760
Breteuil.
612
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,440
They are right.
If anything happens to Louis,
613
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:44,360
Provence will crush me and the children.
614
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:47,520
And I won't be able to stop him.
I can't defend myself
615
00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:50,200
because I don't have money
or resources,
616
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,080
and all i have
belongs to France.
617
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:56,720
I don't own anything.
618
00:53:56,800 --> 00:54:00,560
I have to be
a queen with real power.
619
00:54:01,720 --> 00:54:04,120
The people will not care about that.
620
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,640
Then we must be ready for battle.
621
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:21,080
