1
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,000
DESIREE

2
00:01:54,900 --> 00:01:56,351
Well, here you are finally.

3
00:01:56,923 --> 00:01:58,018
Thanks Heaven.

4
00:01:58,502 --> 00:02:00,215
Desiree, you realize how late you are
Where were you?

5
00:02:00,918 --> 00:02:01,231
I'll catch up.

6
00:02:01,231 --> 00:02:02,859
Your brother and sister and I
were concern about you.

7
00:02:03,407 --> 00:02:04,106
I went for a walk.

8
00:02:04,364 --> 00:02:05,313
A walk?

9
00:02:05,313 --> 00:02:05,606
In the park.

10
00:02:06,399 --> 00:02:07,827
Are you trying to say that you
went for a walk through the park?

11
00:02:08,702 --> 00:02:10,485
Desiree don't crumble your bread

12
00:02:10,890 --> 00:02:12,304
A walk in the park at this hour? 
That's foolish.

13
00:02:13,053 --> 00:02:14,771
Anything could happen to a young girl alone.

14
00:02:14,771 --> 00:02:16,354
I wasn't alone, I was with a young man.

15
00:02:19,130 --> 00:02:19,880
Yes, a young man.

16
00:02:20,595 --> 00:02:23,156
He came into our shop at closing time,
he want to look at some silk.

17
00:02:23,659 --> 00:02:25,702
You walked about the town
with a complete stranger?

18
00:02:26,139 --> 00:02:28,523
He's not a complete stranger,
he introduce himself.

19
00:02:30,112 --> 00:02:32,585
Finish your soup Desiree,
is cold enough already.

20
00:02:32,859 --> 00:02:33,825
That's scandalous!

21
00:02:34,606 --> 00:02:37,465
I still have my virtue,
Julie, honestly.

22
00:02:37,932 --> 00:02:38,697
You are impossible.

23
00:02:39,066 --> 00:02:40,006
He did hold my elbow.

24
00:02:40,471 --> 00:02:43,546
Who tell her about these things? Marie?

25
00:02:43,894 --> 00:02:46,306
It's improper, you are no longer a child.

26
00:02:46,555 --> 00:02:49,101
That's the first time in
this house that anyone...

27
00:02:49,519 --> 00:02:51,037
Has admitted I'm not a child.

28
00:02:51,375 --> 00:02:53,355
I did it for you.

29
00:02:53,732 --> 00:02:54,532
For me?

30
00:02:54,934 --> 00:02:56,007
I told him all about you.

31
00:02:56,558 --> 00:02:58,025
How beatiful you are, how bright...

32
00:02:59,165 --> 00:03:00,175
It was only a half-lie.

33
00:03:01,331 --> 00:03:02,389
Julie should met some men.

34
00:03:04,802 --> 00:03:07,096
It would be easier for us if she had a husband

35
00:03:07,366 --> 00:03:08,830
Marie,please kindly clear the table.

36
00:03:09,770 --> 00:03:10,972
He's from Corseca, a refugee.

37
00:03:11,463 --> 00:03:13,788
Refugee indee, adventurer more likely.

38
00:03:14,318 --> 00:03:16,132
Is very dangerous in this time to assume...

39
00:03:16,379 --> 00:03:19,003
Ettiene it has been five 
years since the revolution

40
00:03:19,262 --> 00:03:20,917
We don't know what this young man's about.

41
00:03:21,151 --> 00:03:22,824
I told you he was about some silk.

42
00:03:24,633 --> 00:03:26,927
Anyway, I've invite him to visit us tomorrow.

43
00:03:27,572 --> 00:03:29,186
To visit us?

44
00:03:29,403 --> 00:03:31,107
He has a brother he told me all about.

45
00:03:31,557 --> 00:03:33,397
This is disgraceful.

46
00:03:33,647 --> 00:03:35,227
They live in Marsseille,the brother is visiting.

47
00:03:35,227 --> 00:03:36,969
You will have to cancel that invitation.

48
00:03:36,969 --> 00:03:38,103
But his brother is a general.

49
00:03:38,456 --> 00:03:40,313
Even general are suspect in these days.

50
00:03:40,695 --> 00:03:42,671
But I've never seen a real general close-up.

51
00:03:43,686 --> 00:03:45,007
Some times...
Yes?

52
00:03:45,243 --> 00:03:46,295
Some times...?

53
00:03:47,566 --> 00:03:49,149
Some times my family make me sick.

54
00:04:11,734 --> 00:04:12,565
I'm sorry..

55
00:04:14,512 --> 00:04:16,083
I didn't mean it, I love my family.

56
00:04:17,735 --> 00:04:18,735
I love you all.

57
00:04:19,233 --> 00:04:20,754
Desiree you have to acept one fact...

58
00:04:21,433 --> 00:04:23,402
Since Papa die I'm the 
head of the family and I...

59
00:04:25,538 --> 00:04:27,598
Is really not enough 
time to cancel the invitation.

60
00:04:28,202 --> 00:04:31,058
Is he handsome, the one for me?

61
00:04:31,993 --> 00:04:33,600
Oh, very handsome by daylight.

62
00:04:33,951 --> 00:04:35,209
But I haven't seen him by moonlight.

63
00:04:35,425 --> 00:04:36,717
Does these aventurers have a name?

64
00:04:37,528 --> 00:04:39,897
Bonapat o Buonaparte something like that.

65
00:04:40,460 --> 00:04:42,070
Bonapat what an impossible name...

66
00:04:43,875 --> 00:04:44,489
Madame

67
00:04:44,489 --> 00:04:45,392
Good Evening.

68
00:04:46,262 --> 00:04:48,105
Bonaparte, Joshep Bonaparte.

69
00:04:48,565 --> 00:04:50,725
We were very happy you could acept
my sister's invitation.

70
00:04:51,028 --> 00:04:51,960
Thank you, sir.

71
00:04:52,473 --> 00:04:53,614
My brother Napoloene.

72
00:04:54,491 --> 00:04:56,278
We are also glad that you could come
citizen genral.

73
00:04:57,144 --> 00:04:59,385
It was not difficult, I had not where to go.

74
00:05:01,820 --> 00:05:05,317
My brother means that no one else
had been kind enough to invite us.

75
00:05:05,317 --> 00:05:08,513
What I meas is...that after hearing Joseph
tell of your charming daughters

76
00:05:08,747 --> 00:05:10,686
I could have gone 
nowhere else Madame Clary.

77
00:05:12,528 --> 00:05:15,726
Yes, shall we be...uh, seated?

78
00:05:16,001 --> 00:05:16,739
Thank you

79
00:05:17,364 --> 00:05:18,487
Citizen General.

80
00:05:19,093 --> 00:05:19,951
Thank You.

81
00:05:24,237 --> 00:05:25,384
We shall have some wine presently

82
00:05:29,309 --> 00:05:31,154
Well, you have a lovely garden.

83
00:05:32,414 --> 00:05:34,661
Its early yet, when the lilacs are out...

84
00:05:34,915 --> 00:05:36,987
and the climbing roses,
round the summerhouse

85
00:05:38,952 --> 00:05:41,262
that is...the roses are out but in
the autumn the lilacs...

86
00:05:46,454 --> 00:05:47,889
Your brother is too young to be a general.

87
00:05:49,340 --> 00:05:51,476
Not necessarily madam.

88
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:53,784
Lafayette was a general at 20.

89
00:05:54,969 --> 00:05:56,405
Has your brother be a general long.

90
00:05:57,997 --> 00:06:00,110
Since last year when 
he command the troops...

91
00:06:00,110 --> 00:06:01,710
and drove the english out of Toulon.

92
00:06:04,236 --> 00:06:06,890
Toulon..mademoiselle 
I'm sure you've heard of it.

93
00:06:09,873 --> 00:06:11,615
Sometimes my ignorance is beyond beliefe...

94
00:06:12,464 --> 00:06:14,190
Would it be indiscreet citizen general...

95
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,797
to inquire whether or not you are in our
city on official business?

96
00:06:17,498 --> 00:06:19,087
I have no command at present...

97
00:06:21,055 --> 00:06:23,478
But I shortly expect to be in charge
of the Italian campaign.

98
00:06:24,051 --> 00:06:25,832
Italian? But we are not in war with Italy.

99
00:06:26,298 --> 00:06:29,404
Its my own personal idea I've
told Robespierre about it...

100
00:06:29,842 --> 00:06:33,832
Is it true that Robespierre closed all
the House of Pleasure in Paris?

101
00:06:34,212 --> 00:06:35,344
Desiree!

102
00:06:36,751 --> 00:06:38,853
Please forgive my sister, sometimes...

103
00:06:39,388 --> 00:06:40,687
Your sister has the happy faculty...

104
00:06:40,687 --> 00:06:42,026
of saying the first thing that
comes into her mind.

105
00:06:44,695 --> 00:06:46,955
She is without guile, a quality
almost unbelievable in a woman.

106
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,544
Desiree doesn't drink wine yet.

107
00:06:52,524 --> 00:06:54,710
Why not? Wine is healhful, strenghtening.

108
00:06:55,169 --> 00:06:55,899
Please.

109
00:06:56,334 --> 00:06:57,802
Young girls don't need strenghtening.

110
00:06:58,505 --> 00:07:00,703
If you will permit 
me one slight contradiction,madame.

111
00:07:01,012 --> 00:07:01,839
They often do.

112
00:07:03,851 --> 00:07:06,346
Yes, citizen Clary, we must press on
to offensive war in Italy

113
00:07:07,023 --> 00:07:07,877
Offensive war?

114
00:07:09,063 --> 00:07:11,932
It is our sacred duty to instill
into all European people

115
00:07:12,541 --> 00:07:14,801
our great ideas of liberty, 
equality and fraternity.

116
00:07:15,758 --> 00:07:17,393
and, if necessary, 
with the help of the cannon.

117
00:07:21,884 --> 00:07:25,400
And now which one of you two ladys will
be kind enough to show me your garden.

118
00:07:45,865 --> 00:07:47,114
You were staring at me in the parlor.

119
00:07:47,439 --> 00:07:48,373
What were you staring at?

120
00:07:49,424 --> 00:07:50,222
Your uniform.

121
00:07:51,931 --> 00:07:53,335
I didn't think a general could be so shabby.

122
00:07:53,823 --> 00:07:55,442
You must be very... poor.

123
00:07:57,773 --> 00:07:58,733
I am Desiree.

124
00:08:00,887 --> 00:08:03,287
Tell me when do you think my brother
and your sister will be married.?

125
00:08:03,724 --> 00:08:05,324
Married?

126
00:08:05,740 --> 00:08:07,145
Yes.They're made for each other.

127
00:08:07,615 --> 00:08:09,112
I spoke to Joshep about it last night.

128
00:08:09,423 --> 00:08:10,823
But last night thay haven't even met.

129
00:08:11,325 --> 00:08:12,834
Last night you and I hadn't even met.

130
00:08:13,554 --> 00:08:15,769
And here we are 
arm in arm in a magic garden.

131
00:08:16,422 --> 00:08:17,795
Flowers blooming music playing...

132
00:08:18,138 --> 00:08:19,535
We must hurry or we lose them.

133
00:08:19,843 --> 00:08:20,729
Exactly.

134
00:08:21,603 --> 00:08:23,167
Confess you must thought yesterday when

135
00:08:23,420 --> 00:08:25,772
you invited Joseph that it would be a
good idea for your sister to marry him.

136
00:08:26,222 --> 00:08:27,956
I thought nothing of the sort.

137
00:08:28,435 --> 00:08:32,242
You mustn't never pretend with me Desiree.

138
00:08:39,019 --> 00:08:41,835
Wait, we better give them 
a chance to get better acquainted...

139
00:08:42,245 --> 00:08:43,305
before they betrothe.

140
00:08:48,016 --> 00:08:50,119
I should like to know why you are so
concern about this marriage.

141
00:08:50,607 --> 00:08:51,712
Shh, I tell you.

142
00:08:52,178 --> 00:08:53,633
Your family obviously very well-to-do...

143
00:08:54,065 --> 00:08:56,732
I'm sure that your father left a 
considerable dowry for you and your sister.

144
00:08:58,124 --> 00:09:00,947
Do you mean your brother would 
want to marry Julie only for her dowry.?

145
00:09:02,694 --> 00:09:04,630
How can you say that? She's a lovely girl.

146
00:09:05,815 --> 00:09:07,481
She's in anyway almost as lovely as yourself.

147
00:09:09,150 --> 00:09:10,741
I'm sure that Joseph find her delightful.

148
00:09:11,569 --> 00:09:13,645
And they will be very happy together.

149
00:09:15,285 --> 00:09:16,940
I'm going to tell Julie every word you've said.

150
00:09:17,827 --> 00:09:20,277
Exactly, that's why 
I'm explaining it to you so carefully.

151
00:09:21,351 --> 00:09:23,815
You see I want my family to be well settled,
Joshep will be the first.

152
00:09:24,409 --> 00:09:26,670
The other will have to 
wait till I have my attempt victories.

153
00:09:27,222 --> 00:09:29,014
And you think you can 
make people do as you wish

154
00:09:29,557 --> 00:09:31,116
The life will come out just as you plan it?

155
00:09:33,081 --> 00:09:36,232
Have you ever heard of destiny, Desiree?

156
00:09:39,758 --> 00:09:41,154
Desiree,desired one.

157
00:09:44,129 --> 00:09:45,614
It's a beautiful name it becomes you.

158
00:09:47,264 --> 00:09:49,231
I will probably kiss you before very long.

159
00:09:51,270 --> 00:09:52,634
And not for your dowry.

160
00:09:58,466 --> 00:10:00,653
They play the Marseillaise every night.

161
00:10:01,856 --> 00:10:02,959
In the park.

162
00:10:03,627 --> 00:10:05,186
It's always the last number.

163
00:10:09,855 --> 00:10:11,707
Today that song 
its played throughout France.

164
00:10:12,862 --> 00:10:15,094
Tomorrow it will be played throughout Europe.

165
00:10:17,249 --> 00:10:19,599
A ragged army marching on wooden shoes.

166
00:10:22,377 --> 00:10:24,404
And you don't believe in destiny.

167
00:10:26,423 --> 00:10:27,994
No one knows what's ahead.

168
00:10:30,489 --> 00:10:32,038
Strange most people say that.

169
00:10:34,284 --> 00:10:35,441
I know what's ahead.

170
00:10:37,041 --> 00:10:38,789
I one of the men that makes history.

171
00:10:40,061 --> 00:10:42,023
You laugh?

172
00:10:44,375 --> 00:10:47,058
Well, I'm afraid I always try to laugh.

173
00:11:08,023 --> 00:11:09,116
You lied.

174
00:11:10,291 --> 00:11:11,829
Wine is not strenghtening.

175
00:11:20,316 --> 00:11:22,955
I wish...the night

176
00:11:24,091 --> 00:11:25,807
Could have gone...on...

177
00:11:26,743 --> 00:11:28,366
and on and on.

178
00:11:34,481 --> 00:11:35,481
What are you doing?

179
00:11:36,323 --> 00:11:38,133
I'm starting the diary Papa gave me.

180
00:11:38,662 --> 00:11:40,118
Finally, I have something to write in it.

181
00:11:42,282 --> 00:11:43,144
Did he kiss you?

182
00:11:43,623 --> 00:11:44,467
Julie!

183
00:11:45,464 --> 00:11:46,462
Did yours kiss you?

184
00:11:46,899 --> 00:11:50,175
Please...a girl allows herself
to be kissed only...

185
00:11:51,379 --> 00:11:52,439
Well she allows...

186
00:11:52,766 --> 00:11:56,071
Oh, you're still too young,
to understand these things.

187
00:11:58,666 --> 00:11:59,369
How...

188
00:11:59,910 --> 00:12:01,053
can...

189
00:12:02,020 --> 00:12:03,217
it...

190
00:12:05,182 --> 00:12:06,529
happens so quickly?

191
00:12:12,691 --> 00:12:13,905
Are you having a daydream up there?

192
00:12:14,825 --> 00:12:20,095
What are you thinking about?

193
00:12:20,740 --> 00:12:22,406
I was thinking that life is very simple.

194
00:12:26,149 --> 00:12:28,085
Life is never simple, but I agreed being in love...

195
00:12:28,332 --> 00:12:29,725
helps to make it less complicated.

196
00:12:35,761 --> 00:12:37,009
This is an attractive piece.

197
00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:39,589
Oh, it's too brittle.This piece is better.

198
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,499
See those gold threads? That gives it vitality

199
00:12:43,219 --> 00:12:44,358
You're a born silk merchant's daughter

200
00:12:44,777 --> 00:12:48,528
Papa always said is in my blood.

201
00:12:48,957 --> 00:12:50,578
This is for Julie wedding gown.

202
00:12:50,783 --> 00:12:53,544
Quite unfashionable,we've sold
none since the revolution.

203
00:12:53,823 --> 00:12:55,513
But the ladies in Paris are no longer ladies.

204
00:12:55,774 --> 00:12:59,323
Today everything they were is transparent.

205
00:12:59,690 --> 00:13:00,957
Oh,Surely, not everything.

206
00:13:04,666 --> 00:13:05,917
General Napoleone Buonaparte?

207
00:13:06,553 --> 00:13:07,458
Yes?

208
00:13:08,271 --> 00:13:09,566
We went first to your barracks,sir.

209
00:13:09,782 --> 00:13:10,845
They told me we could find you here.

210
00:13:12,886 --> 00:13:13,510
Well, what is it?

211
00:13:14,166 --> 00:13:16,852
Warrent for the arrest of 
Citizen General Buonaparte.

212
00:13:18,398 --> 00:13:19,462
Napoleone.

213
00:13:24,825 --> 00:13:26,636
Was this issued with the
knolewdge of citizen Robespierre?

214
00:13:28,072 --> 00:13:31,389
I regret to inform you that citizen Robespierre
was guillotined in Paris three days ago.

215
00:13:46,224 --> 00:13:47,574
I must go with them, please inform my family.

216
00:13:48,143 --> 00:13:49,098
I don't know where they live?

217
00:13:49,359 --> 00:13:50,409
17 Rue Pavillon.

218
00:13:51,224 --> 00:13:55,069
Even on a summer day a sargent's uniforme
should be fastened properly.

219
00:13:56,130 --> 00:13:57,498
Where will they take you?

220
00:13:57,710 --> 00:13:58,688
I don't know. It doesn't matter.

221
00:13:58,688 --> 00:13:59,851
Wait for me, I'll be back.

222
00:14:09,717 --> 00:14:11,589
What have I said from the start.: adventurer.

223
00:14:11,589 --> 00:14:14,210
Well, this will be the end of him.

224
00:14:54,434 --> 00:14:55,371
Napoleone.

225
00:15:00,434 --> 00:15:01,982
I've just been release, I can't stay here.

226
00:15:03,168 --> 00:15:04,115
You must be cold.

227
00:15:04,333 --> 00:15:05,040
Only my feet.

228
00:15:05,332 --> 00:15:06,926
Come and sitdown 
I have many things to tell you.

229
00:15:07,393 --> 00:15:08,223
Was it bad?

230
00:15:08,514 --> 00:15:11,416
No, specially when 
one consider the little packages

231
00:15:12,698 --> 00:15:13,714
I hopo you got them

232
00:15:13,995 --> 00:15:16,674
I did.The books, the wine, the cake...

233
00:15:18,584 --> 00:15:19,997
And the underdrawers.

234
00:15:21,030 --> 00:15:22,108
Were they the right size?

235
00:15:22,854 --> 00:15:23,677
Almost.

236
00:15:24,573 --> 00:15:25,332
What happened?

237
00:15:26,627 --> 00:15:28,422
They charge me 
with plotting against the goverment.

238
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,313
But the men in the 
Ministry of Defense are gentlemen...

239
00:15:30,657 --> 00:15:32,039
and when they found they had no evidence...

240
00:15:32,274 --> 00:15:33,764
they ordered me to duty.

241
00:15:34,964 --> 00:15:36,001
I'm so glad you're free.

242
00:15:36,395 --> 00:15:37,873
I am to report at once to special mission,

243
00:15:38,115 --> 00:15:39,653
for tracking down hidden royalists.

244
00:15:41,511 --> 00:15:42,513
Would it be dangerous?

245
00:15:43,261 --> 00:15:44,894
I'm an artillery expert not a policeman.

246
00:15:46,298 --> 00:15:48,640
It'll keep me away 
from the front,let me be forgotten.

247
00:15:49,762 --> 00:15:51,673
You could ask for a discharge.

248
00:15:52,163 --> 00:15:53,714
You might joint Etienne in the firm.

249
00:15:56,562 --> 00:15:57,737
Are you mad?

250
00:15:58,436 --> 00:16:00,245
Do you realise that
 I'm the best general in France..

251
00:16:00,245 --> 00:16:02,905
do you really believe I'd work in a silk shop?

252
00:16:03,164 --> 00:16:04,207
I didn't mean any offense.

253
00:16:04,838 --> 00:16:05,881
Is anyone there?

254
00:16:06,234 --> 00:16:07,296
Come into the house.

255
00:16:07,919 --> 00:16:08,905
Who is there? Who is it?

256
00:16:08,905 --> 00:16:10,540
It's me, General Bonaparte.

257
00:16:10,775 --> 00:16:12,116
It can not be you, you're in prison.

258
00:16:12,442 --> 00:16:13,214
You'll get wet.

259
00:16:13,214 --> 00:16:15,584
Anyway, what are you doing here in the
middle of the night in this weather?

260
00:16:15,970 --> 00:16:16,551
Napoleon!

261
00:16:16,551 --> 00:16:17,736
Be still!

262
00:16:17,968 --> 00:16:18,903
With whom are you talking?

263
00:16:21,231 --> 00:16:22,240
He's talking to me.

264
00:16:24,163 --> 00:16:25,768
General you owe me an explanation.

265
00:16:26,063 --> 00:16:27,034
I'll give you an explanation.

266
00:16:28,109 --> 00:16:30,995
I have the honor to request your
sister's hand in marriage.

267
00:16:31,749 --> 00:16:34,065
No! With all my strenght..No!

268
00:16:34,489 --> 00:16:36,674
One Buonaparte is quite enough in a family.

269
00:16:37,017 --> 00:16:37,719
Loon!

270
00:16:39,634 --> 00:16:41,201
Desiree como inside at once!

271
00:16:42,629 --> 00:16:44,549
Did you mean that, or were you angry?

272
00:16:45,192 --> 00:16:46,320
About my hand?

273
00:16:46,597 --> 00:16:48,419
How could one help being angry? Your
brother shout at me like a loon...

274
00:16:48,933 --> 00:16:50,508
and you ask me to become a ribbon peddle.

275
00:16:51,945 --> 00:16:52,837
Obviously I meant it.

276
00:16:53,897 --> 00:16:56,872
I came here directly from prison with the 
express purpose to ask you to marry me.

277
00:17:00,918 --> 00:17:01,678
Will you marry me?

278
00:17:01,898 --> 00:17:03,270
Yes,Oh, yes.

279
00:17:05,155 --> 00:17:06,034
You'd better go in

280
00:17:06,452 --> 00:17:07,657
No, it's lovely out here.

281
00:17:09,229 --> 00:17:10,819
I must go now, say good bye to my family.

282
00:17:11,058 --> 00:17:12,289
I'm leaving for Paris in the morning.

283
00:17:12,627 --> 00:17:13,304
For Paris.

284
00:17:13,628 --> 00:17:15,219
Yes, I must speak 
with a gentleman in the Ministry.

285
00:17:15,688 --> 00:17:17,921
But you can't, if you go to Paris
you'll be desobeying your orders.

286
00:17:18,233 --> 00:17:19,138
And perhaps I'll be shot.

287
00:17:20,292 --> 00:17:21,542
Can you loan me some money?

288
00:17:21,851 --> 00:17:23,838
Well,I only have 98 francs in my drawer.

289
00:17:24,110 --> 00:17:26,628
98 francs will do, throw 
them down when you get upstairs.

290
00:17:28,637 --> 00:17:29,868
I'll go to Paris and convince them.

291
00:17:29,868 --> 00:17:31,286
And when I come back we'll be married

292
00:17:32,254 --> 00:17:34,874
Please remember that I love you.

293
00:17:51,336 --> 00:17:53,412
Oh, Paulette, have you ever seen such silk?

294
00:17:56,501 --> 00:17:57,438
Oh!

295
00:17:57,812 --> 00:18:00,774
Isn't this a loving piece of material.

296
00:18:01,586 --> 00:18:03,771
This'll make a beautiful gown, 
don't you think?.

297
00:18:04,031 --> 00:18:07,680
I told you a hundred times before
you're not to handle our silk by any of you.

298
00:18:08,336 --> 00:18:10,353
Just because your 
brother Joshep married my sister

299
00:18:10,554 --> 00:18:13,251
is not reason why should I have to put up
with the entire Buonaparte family.

300
00:18:13,632 --> 00:18:15,597
Oh, it's not Bounaparte any longer.

301
00:18:15,597 --> 00:18:19,443
Yes,yes, I know he changed it, 
its Napoleon Bonaparte.

302
00:18:19,694 --> 00:18:21,159
But it is easier to pronounce.

303
00:18:21,378 --> 00:18:22,813
Frankly I wish I'd never heard it.

304
00:18:25,329 --> 00:18:28,494
The next time you write your brother
tell him Desiree won't wait forever.

305
00:18:29,551 --> 00:18:30,863
She hasn't heard from him in months.

306
00:18:31,238 --> 00:18:33,235
That's because he's having
such a wonderful time in Paris.

307
00:18:33,919 --> 00:18:36,418
You know he hobnot 
with all the diplomats and politicians.

308
00:18:36,823 --> 00:18:38,444
And he spent must of his time in salons.

309
00:18:38,669 --> 00:18:41,347
All famous people gather there.

310
00:18:42,429 --> 00:18:44,113
And drink champage all day long.

311
00:18:44,424 --> 00:18:47,711
A man who spend his time that way

312
00:18:48,109 --> 00:18:49,956
Doesn't deserve to marry a girl like Desiree.

313
00:18:50,353 --> 00:18:51,190
Ouch!!

314
00:18:54,158 --> 00:18:55,295
Desiree where are you going?

315
00:18:55,564 --> 00:18:56,439
To Paris.

316
00:18:59,430 --> 00:19:00,337
Desiree!

317
00:19:15,032 --> 00:19:15,743
Who is she?

318
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:17,135
De Beauharnais!

319
00:19:17,870 --> 00:19:18,683
Josephine.

320
00:19:18,896 --> 00:19:19,711
Josephine?

321
00:19:19,711 --> 00:19:20,570
Yes.

322
00:19:39,729 --> 00:19:40,897
What do you wish, Mademoiselle?

323
00:19:41,375 --> 00:19:42,420
I wish to go in.

324
00:19:42,809 --> 00:19:43,591
Do you have an invitation?

325
00:19:43,845 --> 00:19:46,025
No, but I believe I know someone
who's probable in there.

326
00:19:46,242 --> 00:19:47,477
Are you a friend of Madame Talienne?

327
00:19:47,477 --> 00:19:48,615
No.

328
00:19:48,898 --> 00:19:51,175
Well,if you have no escort,
I can not allow you to enter.

329
00:19:52,264 --> 00:19:52,958
But, I must go in.

330
00:19:52,958 --> 00:19:56,272
But I've told you, you can't enter
unless you are a personal friend

331
00:19:56,272 --> 00:19:57,259
or are with a gentleman...

332
00:19:57,831 --> 00:19:59,712
Ladies like you must 
keep to the rue St.Honore.

333
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,108
Now, if you don't mind...

334
00:20:04,013 --> 00:20:04,826
Oh!

335
00:20:05,652 --> 00:20:06,492
I'm very sorry citizeness.

336
00:20:06,868 --> 00:20:07,823
It was really my fault.

337
00:20:10,914 --> 00:20:11,912
Oh, I beg your pardon.

338
00:20:12,121 --> 00:20:13,973
I should like to belong to you...

339
00:20:16,062 --> 00:20:17,651
This is hardly the time or the place.

340
00:20:17,905 --> 00:20:20,697
No, I mean for a few momentos only...
until we get inside.

341
00:20:21,583 --> 00:20:23,228
You see I must go in, but I have no escort.

342
00:20:26,973 --> 00:20:28,636
Please forgive me, I shouldn't have bother

343
00:20:29,259 --> 00:20:31,748
No bother.

344
00:20:43,694 --> 00:20:44,985
Whom shall I announce General?

345
00:20:45,375 --> 00:20:46,407
Your name citizeness?

346
00:20:46,670 --> 00:20:47,389
Desiree.

347
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:48,717
And the rest of it?

348
00:20:53,628 --> 00:20:56,403
General Jean-Baptiste Bernardotte.

349
00:20:56,642 --> 00:20:59,058
And citizeness Desiree...

350
00:21:06,311 --> 00:21:07,151
You found him yet?

351
00:21:08,165 --> 00:21:10,132
No...How do you know?

352
00:21:11,036 --> 00:21:12,164
What a surprise!

353
00:21:12,455 --> 00:21:14,801
What a pleasant surprise, 
General Bernardotte!

354
00:21:15,029 --> 00:21:16,485
I've just return from the front, 
Madame Talienne.

355
00:21:16,685 --> 00:21:18,994
As always, my first pleasure is
to joint your magic circle.

356
00:21:19,209 --> 00:21:23,632
Returning from the front,it's flattering,
but I see you've found a companion in Paris.

357
00:21:23,983 --> 00:21:25,077
Yes, by a happy chance.

358
00:21:25,513 --> 00:21:28,602
The moment the citezeness and I saw 
one another,we fell into each other's arms.

359
00:21:29,038 --> 00:21:31,722
Well, old friend or not my dear you'll
going to have to share him with us.

360
00:21:32,254 --> 00:21:34,282
I want to show you 
the most fantastic woman.

361
00:21:44,908 --> 00:21:46,322
He was a waiter my dear,a waiter.

362
00:21:46,549 --> 00:21:48,122
And now he's Madame Racomiert's lover.

363
00:21:48,122 --> 00:21:48,122
Oh, no!

364
00:21:52,034 --> 00:21:53,304
Oh, he's gone so low.

365
00:21:55,250 --> 00:21:57,152
My motto would be "Never be in a hurry".

366
00:21:57,511 --> 00:21:59,366
People will not stand for the bread
shortage much longer...

367
00:21:59,896 --> 00:22:01,832
After all, they did not win a revolution for that.

368
00:22:22,896 --> 00:22:24,170
Is he teaching you to 
speak corsican, madame?

369
00:22:26,784 --> 00:22:29,309
It's impossible for you to understand
anything simple, Monsieur Talleyrand.

370
00:22:29,850 --> 00:22:31,459
I love Napoleon, and he loves me.

371
00:22:31,846 --> 00:22:33,968
Believe me its not y
our soul he loves nor your body...

372
00:22:34,516 --> 00:22:35,404
Its your influence.

373
00:22:35,873 --> 00:22:37,150
Oh, come now, you forget yourself.

374
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,666
Yes, I guess so, but 
I'm carried away by the truth.

375
00:22:40,789 --> 00:22:42,423
Perhaps you seeks glory, my darling.

376
00:22:43,407 --> 00:22:45,295
But we won't be grudge by that, won't we?

377
00:22:45,676 --> 00:22:47,530
The pursuit of glory 
creates solely a great hero...

378
00:22:47,977 --> 00:22:49,785
contemp of it creates a great man.

379
00:22:51,302 --> 00:22:53,437
Perhaps the pursuit of an extraordinary
woman can creates both.

380
00:22:54,591 --> 00:22:56,576
You're becoming an expert at that.

381
00:22:59,289 --> 00:23:01,800
Yes, yes, well, everyone a toast, a toast...

382
00:23:02,150 --> 00:23:05,018
To General Bonaparte 
and his beloved Josephine.

383
00:23:05,702 --> 00:23:07,914
May they be as happy
 married as they are singles.

384
00:23:09,369 --> 00:23:10,897
Desiree!!

385
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,119
Please remeber that I love you...

386
00:23:17,039 --> 00:23:18,303
Mademoiselle...What is it?

387
00:24:27,993 --> 00:24:28,786
Let me go...

388
00:24:29,087 --> 00:24:29,846
Come, I'll take you home.

389
00:24:30,081 --> 00:24:30,968
No, leave me alone.

390
00:24:31,691 --> 00:24:32,560
Put me down!

391
00:24:41,703 --> 00:24:42,451
Drive along, anywhere.

392
00:24:42,699 --> 00:24:43,262
Yes, sir.

393
00:24:43,605 --> 00:24:44,560
Back to Madame Talienne's?

394
00:24:44,837 --> 00:24:45,341
No!

395
00:24:45,591 --> 00:24:46,195
Anywhere.

396
00:25:02,699 --> 00:25:04,873
I disgrace you at Madame Talienne's.

397
00:25:06,037 --> 00:25:07,369
I...I should apologize.

398
00:25:11,215 --> 00:25:12,091
I apologize.

399
00:25:14,835 --> 00:25:15,897
I'm not sorry for anything else,

400
00:25:17,166 --> 00:25:18,704
I threw champagne at her dress on purpose.

401
00:25:21,139 --> 00:25:22,345
Champagne leaves spots...

402
00:25:26,025 --> 00:25:27,523
She's far most beautiful than I...

403
00:25:28,335 --> 00:25:29,425
A lady of the world.

404
00:25:33,265 --> 00:25:36,865
I really must try not to cry so much.

405
00:25:43,543 --> 00:25:45,135
I'll get your coat wet,

406
00:25:45,942 --> 00:25:47,631
Don't worry tears don't leave spots.

407
00:25:56,289 --> 00:25:57,365
We were to have been married

408
00:25:58,578 --> 00:26:01,058
I believe in him as I never believe
in another human being.

409
00:26:02,449 --> 00:26:04,041
Now, without a word he just...

410
00:26:05,150 --> 00:26:06,605
Really it doesn't have 
to be the end of everything.

411
00:26:06,878 --> 00:26:08,111
Oh, it does, it does.

412
00:26:09,549 --> 00:26:11,952
In the life of every 
woman there is only one great love.

413
00:26:14,104 --> 00:26:15,009
How could you be that certain?

414
00:26:16,946 --> 00:26:19,895
It say so in all the novels, it must be true.

415
00:26:21,841 --> 00:26:24,912
I really don't like 
discussing another man's affairs.

416
00:26:25,181 --> 00:26:27,572
But there is something you should
know about General Bonaparte.

417
00:26:29,363 --> 00:26:31,495
Aside for his interest in 
Josephine, he was engage for

418
00:26:31,963 --> 00:26:35,949
a long time with the daughter of a wealthy
silk merchant in Marseilles.

419
00:26:36,674 --> 00:26:37,984
His brother's married her sister.

420
00:26:39,515 --> 00:26:41,311
So, you see, he 
wouldn't have married you in any case.

421
00:26:42,587 --> 00:26:46,367
He's choice is between a bumpkin with a large
dowry and a paramount with useful connections...

422
00:26:48,424 --> 00:26:50,579
unfortunately you have neither 
dowry or useful connections.

423
00:26:51,681 --> 00:26:52,603
How do you know that?

424
00:26:54,395 --> 00:26:55,614
I can tell by looking at you.

425
00:26:56,674 --> 00:26:58,015
Perhaps that's why you are so attractive.

426
00:27:03,466 --> 00:27:04,647
13 Rue Tabac.

427
00:27:07,173 --> 00:27:08,738
Would you allow me 
to call on you tomorrow?

428
00:27:10,203 --> 00:27:11,420
Aren't you in love with her?

429
00:27:12,386 --> 00:27:13,117
Good heavens, who?

430
00:27:13,336 --> 00:27:14,245
Madame Taliennes.

431
00:27:15,642 --> 00:27:17,313
No, I'm in love with you.

432
00:27:19,886 --> 00:27:21,778
Oh, I can't bear a General, none of you...

433
00:27:23,039 --> 00:27:24,472
Well there are Genrals and Generals...

434
00:27:25,979 --> 00:27:27,656
Again, will you allow 
me to call on you tomorrow?

435
00:27:27,906 --> 00:27:28,454
NO.

436
00:27:29,745 --> 00:27:30,618
Perhaps, I'm too old.

437
00:27:31,242 --> 00:27:33,337
I'm leaving Paris tomorrow for Mar...

438
00:27:33,629 --> 00:27:35,381
I'm leaving Paris tomorrow.

439
00:27:36,063 --> 00:27:37,360
And I'm never going to return.

440
00:27:39,544 --> 00:27:40,437
13 Rue Tabac.

441
00:27:54,725 --> 00:27:56,099
Good night and thank you.

442
00:28:01,258 --> 00:28:02,650
Truly many thanks.

443
00:28:05,220 --> 00:28:07,310
Don't worry, I'll go in and stay.

444
00:28:07,862 --> 00:28:08,683
It's not that, it just...

445
00:28:10,181 --> 00:28:11,116
What I said just now...

446
00:28:11,462 --> 00:28:12,758
I was teasing of course, in a way...

447
00:28:14,693 --> 00:28:16,235
But you are the very most attractive...

448
00:28:16,531 --> 00:28:17,878
Oh, it wouldn't do it, General, really not.

449
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,215
It isn't that you are too old for me...

450
00:28:22,226 --> 00:28:23,742
but you can see for yourself.

451
00:28:24,551 --> 00:28:26,132
I'm much too short for you.

452
00:28:33,882 --> 00:28:35,921
December 15, 1797.

453
00:28:37,409 --> 00:28:41,872
I suppose by now the whole 
world knows Napoleon Bonaparte.

454
00:28:42,755 --> 00:28:48,651
His face is everywhere, they call him the strong
man of France, ever since he conquered Italy.

455
00:28:49,606 --> 00:28:50,761
Just as he said he would.

456
00:28:52,052 --> 00:28:53,976
He certainly has taken care of his family.

457
00:28:54,953 --> 00:28:59,791
Who ever thought Joseph would be
Ambassador of the French Republic in Rome.?

458
00:29:01,371 --> 00:29:03,990
Anyway, I'm glad Julie ask 
me to come and stay with them.

459
00:29:04,772 --> 00:29:06,405
Marseilles has too many memories...

460
00:29:07,651 --> 00:29:08,527
and who knows?

461
00:29:08,821 --> 00:29:10,260
Diplomatic life may be interesting.

462
00:29:13,245 --> 00:29:16,747
Diplomatic life is dull, dull, dull...

463
00:29:18,094 --> 00:29:19,508
and this gloomy palace...

464
00:29:20,371 --> 00:29:22,491
these cold floors and high ceilings...

465
00:29:23,158 --> 00:29:25,076
and these awful statues...

466
00:29:25,725 --> 00:29:28,761
at any moment I expect them to turn into
fountains spouting water...

467
00:29:29,024 --> 00:29:30,677
from all sort of unlikely places.

468
00:29:31,403 --> 00:29:35,343
And it's always so drafty and...Ah-Choo!

469
00:29:36,595 --> 00:29:39,593
Oh, one thing is certain...I hate palaces.

470
00:29:55,783 --> 00:29:57,716
You are glad you came to 
Paris with us, don't you?

471
00:29:58,291 --> 00:29:58,747
Yes.

472
00:29:59,789 --> 00:30:01,721
You are quite sure you 
want to come to his dinner party?

473
00:30:02,896 --> 00:30:03,500
Yes.

474
00:30:04,239 --> 00:30:05,841
We'll be close by, if...

475
00:30:06,357 --> 00:30:08,480
Well, now that he's married 
to Josephine, of course...

476
00:30:11,581 --> 00:30:12,986
Do you feel anything for him anymore?

477
00:30:13,236 --> 00:30:13,672
No!

478
00:30:18,288 --> 00:30:18,884
No.

479
00:30:33,233 --> 00:30:38,007
His Excellency and Madame Joseph 
Bonaparte and Mademoiselle Clary.

480
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:47,429
Julie.

481
00:30:47,429 --> 00:30:48,151
Madame.

482
00:30:48,546 --> 00:30:49,261
Joseph.

483
00:30:50,351 --> 00:30:51,799
Madame.

484
00:30:52,109 --> 00:30:52,781
Welcome to Malmaison, Mademoiselle.

485
00:30:53,036 --> 00:30:53,971
It's good of you to come.

486
00:30:53,971 --> 00:30:55,627
The delight is complety mine, madame.

487
00:30:58,558 --> 00:30:59,274
Good evening.

488
00:31:00,493 --> 00:31:03,249
It's inconceivable, the little girl I once knew.

489
00:31:04,995 --> 00:31:06,544
Desiree you become a temptress

490
00:31:07,179 --> 00:31:08,959
You've not seen me in a long time General.

491
00:31:09,254 --> 00:31:09,862
Too long.

492
00:31:10,787 --> 00:31:12,421
Your success as our Ambassador in Vienna...

493
00:31:12,690 --> 00:31:16,135
I intend to stay in Paris as long as
Joseph and Julie are here, General.

494
00:31:16,903 --> 00:31:18,443
I shall see that they remain indefinitely.

495
00:31:20,364 --> 00:31:21,926
The tradition of the great diplomats...

496
00:31:24,184 --> 00:31:27,710
Ah, Bernadotte, you know 
my brother and his wife.

497
00:31:31,629 --> 00:31:33,284
You seem to be acquainted 
with the young lady.

498
00:31:34,011 --> 00:31:34,978
I don't recall that I am.

499
00:31:35,903 --> 00:31:37,663
Joseph, Julie come and meet everybody.

500
00:31:38,867 --> 00:31:42,570
Them allow me to present her, Miss Clary, 
General Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte.

501
00:31:56,476 --> 00:31:58,211
The British isles can 
never be invaded by the sea.

502
00:31:59,377 --> 00:32:00,301
But here is another way.

503
00:32:02,187 --> 00:32:06,387
Can you image batallion transported
across the channel by air?

504
00:32:06,967 --> 00:32:07,634
By air?

505
00:32:07,972 --> 00:32:10,203
Huge ballons constructed 
to remain aloft for hours.

506
00:32:10,922 --> 00:32:12,327
Each carrying a half dozen men.

507
00:32:12,857 --> 00:32:15,280
I've seen the design's fantastic possibilities.

508
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,119
All of this, of course, it will have to wait.

509
00:32:19,033 --> 00:32:21,969
It is now safe to reveal something that
Bernadotte and a few others know.

510
00:32:22,799 --> 00:32:24,547
In a few weeks, 
I should leave for the Egyptian campaigne.

511
00:32:25,696 --> 00:32:27,414
We will sail from Toulon with 400 ships..

512
00:32:28,145 --> 00:32:30,130
and Two thousand pieces of artillery.

513
00:32:31,284 --> 00:32:33,373
We will unite East and West

514
00:32:34,540 --> 00:32:37,238
40 centuries will look down upon us
and we will not desappointed them.

515
00:32:41,250 --> 00:32:42,611
What do you make of it, Bernadotte?

516
00:32:46,054 --> 00:32:46,614
Egypt...

517
00:32:46,885 --> 00:32:50,773
It will prove that cannon is more
efecctive than bow and arrow.

518
00:32:53,355 --> 00:32:54,466
You misjudge my motives...

519
00:32:54,997 --> 00:32:56,806
Victory in Egypt, if necessary, 
is one more step,

520
00:32:57,134 --> 00:32:58,702
In bringing order and peace to Europe.

521
00:32:59,016 --> 00:33:00,085
Order and peace with conquest.

522
00:33:01,112 --> 00:33:03,546
I'll tell you frankly if I were
Minister of Defense, I'd forbid you to sail.

523
00:33:05,354 --> 00:33:07,821
Then we must make certain 
that you're not made Minister of Defense.

524
00:33:08,239 --> 00:33:09,610
At least until after I depart.

525
00:33:10,751 --> 00:33:12,666
General Bernadotte 
doesn't approve of conquest...

526
00:33:13,187 --> 00:33:14,196
Not even of ladies.

527
00:33:14,945 --> 00:33:18,004
It must have been painful for you
in Vienna without one at court.

528
00:33:18,396 --> 00:33:20,832
At court and elsewhere.

529
00:33:22,919 --> 00:33:24,430
Perhaps you never found the right lady.

530
00:33:24,773 --> 00:33:26,207
I found her once but she simply vanished.

531
00:33:28,330 --> 00:33:29,795
I drink to her memory.

532
00:33:34,952 --> 00:33:36,570
This one over here it's
called the Donna Velota.

533
00:33:39,632 --> 00:33:40,731
I've seen it somewhere.

534
00:33:41,214 --> 00:33:42,371
It used to hang in Italy

535
00:33:43,391 --> 00:33:44,420
and I borrowed it.

536
00:33:46,353 --> 00:33:47,985
Her smile reminds me of your wife's.

537
00:33:49,607 --> 00:33:50,687
Your tone is cold.

538
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:53,945
Did you expect it to be otherwise?

539
00:33:54,820 --> 00:33:56,712
I thought I done everything I could
to make it up to you.

540
00:33:57,584 --> 00:33:59,393
By sending me every 
eligible bachelor you knew.

541
00:33:59,904 --> 00:34:01,424
I choose only my must trusted aids...

542
00:34:01,684 --> 00:34:03,493
soldiers who have distinguished 
themselves in the field of battle...

543
00:34:03,710 --> 00:34:06,168
I am not a decoration to be rewarded
for some deserving officer.

544
00:34:06,571 --> 00:34:08,034
It's time you were married.

545
00:34:08,289 --> 00:34:10,717
Believe me, only in marriage can a
woman find the real meaning in life.

546
00:34:11,581 --> 00:34:13,247
I should like to throw 
these candlesticks at you.

547
00:34:14,712 --> 00:34:17,661
Well...if you must, 
let's not set fire to the place.

548
00:34:23,586 --> 00:34:25,321
Desiree, I must make you understand...

549
00:34:26,956 --> 00:34:29,140
Without Josephine I could not have
achieve command in Italy.

550
00:34:30,780 --> 00:34:32,683
As a result of that, deeds await me of which

551
00:34:33,007 --> 00:34:34,848
the present generation cannot even dream.

552
00:34:36,461 --> 00:34:39,831
These chuckleheads who 
call me bloodthirsty mad, ambitious,

553
00:34:40,107 --> 00:34:41,368
I'm none of these.

554
00:34:42,212 --> 00:34:43,916
I am the French Revolution.

555
00:34:44,570 --> 00:34:45,862
And I shall know how to protect it.

556
00:34:47,649 --> 00:34:49,077
The Crown of France lies in the gutter...

557
00:34:49,715 --> 00:34:52,790
It needs only to be pick it up...

558
00:34:53,084 --> 00:34:54,349
with the point of a sword.

559
00:34:55,813 --> 00:34:57,094
Do you understand that?

560
00:34:58,460 --> 00:34:58,997
Do you?

561
00:34:59,831 --> 00:35:01,898
I don't...I'm not certain.

562
00:35:08,989 --> 00:35:10,559
We must be friends always.

563
00:35:12,663 --> 00:35:14,840
The garden are lovely here in Malmaison.

564
00:35:16,314 --> 00:35:17,529
There are chesnut trees.

565
00:35:17,831 --> 00:35:19,496
And a lake with black and white swans,

566
00:35:21,278 --> 00:35:23,008
and a charming little building...

567
00:35:24,518 --> 00:35:27,503
No, I don't want to walk in the
garden with you again, ever!

568
00:35:43,583 --> 00:35:44,509
Would you object madam,

569
00:35:44,509 --> 00:35:46,392
If I invited your sister for a little drive.?

570
00:35:47,233 --> 00:35:48,948
But of course General, any afternoon..

571
00:35:49,292 --> 00:35:50,216
I meant right now.

572
00:35:50,883 --> 00:35:52,130
Yes, right now.

573
00:35:52,411 --> 00:35:53,401
But it's after dark.

574
00:35:53,606 --> 00:35:54,504
Only a little.

575
00:36:23,099 --> 00:36:24,548
A silk merchant's daughter from Marseilles...

576
00:36:25,064 --> 00:36:25,926
Why didn't you tell me?

577
00:36:26,438 --> 00:36:27,282
I was too proud.

578
00:36:28,282 --> 00:36:29,197
I was too confident.

579
00:36:30,042 --> 00:36:31,607
I called the next day 
at the house at the rue Tabac.

580
00:36:31,915 --> 00:36:32,963
They would tell me nothing about you.

581
00:36:33,379 --> 00:36:34,470
I asked them not to.

582
00:36:35,687 --> 00:36:37,294
Thereby cost us a waste of three years.

583
00:36:38,558 --> 00:36:39,804
But I thought of you many times.

584
00:36:41,759 --> 00:36:42,572
Have I changed?

585
00:36:44,319 --> 00:36:45,147
You're more nourished.

586
00:36:47,526 --> 00:36:48,917
And I no longer hate Paris.

587
00:36:50,101 --> 00:36:51,882
It must be the loveliest place in the world.

588
00:36:52,523 --> 00:36:53,448
I never want to leave.

589
00:36:53,896 --> 00:36:54,379
Nor I.

590
00:36:56,256 --> 00:36:58,075
Except that I'll probably 
be in command of troops again,

591
00:36:59,371 --> 00:37:00,054
but I found a house

592
00:37:00,054 --> 00:37:01,695
that should be perfect for you and the child.

593
00:37:03,017 --> 00:37:03,581
What child?

594
00:37:04,191 --> 00:37:05,685
Our child of course.

595
00:37:07,483 --> 00:37:09,290
Ordinarily I'm a man of manners and protocol.

596
00:37:09,694 --> 00:37:12,254
I'd call on you,and your family, 
bring you flowers,

597
00:37:12,474 --> 00:37:13,335
Take you to the theater.

598
00:37:13,797 --> 00:37:15,809
I'd do whatever is required 
of a man before he proposing.

599
00:37:17,481 --> 00:37:18,682
Three years is enough time to waste.

600
00:37:19,545 --> 00:37:20,177
Oh, no, please.

601
00:37:29,884 --> 00:37:31,076
There's no help for it.

602
00:37:39,199 --> 00:37:40,540
You're the second man I've ever kissed.

603
00:37:42,505 --> 00:37:43,440
Do it again.

604
00:37:52,926 --> 00:37:54,217
I was born in a small city

605
00:37:54,435 --> 00:37:55,579
called Pau in Gascony.

606
00:37:56,405 --> 00:37:58,274
My father was a clerk in a law office.

607
00:37:58,605 --> 00:37:59,961
Joined the army when I was 17.

608
00:38:01,444 --> 00:38:02,829
You're not the second girl I've ever kissed.

609
00:38:04,268 --> 00:38:05,439
I don't mind really.

610
00:38:05,703 --> 00:38:06,806
I'm not apologizing.

611
00:38:08,413 --> 00:38:09,059
One more statistic.

612
00:38:10,590 --> 00:38:12,721
Ever since the moment I left you
that night in the rue Tabac.

613
00:38:14,272 --> 00:38:15,437
I've been in love with you.

614
00:38:27,102 --> 00:38:29,599
I met him first. I loved him.

615
00:38:31,379 --> 00:38:32,344
You will always know that.

616
00:38:34,340 --> 00:38:35,059
Do you still love him?

617
00:38:36,743 --> 00:38:37,928
I haven't found out yet.

618
00:38:40,287 --> 00:38:41,142
I hope not.

619
00:38:43,764 --> 00:38:45,229
You think you could ever be in love with me?

620
00:38:48,557 --> 00:38:49,566
I think so...

621
00:38:51,750 --> 00:38:53,406
My sweet General of the bridge.

622
00:38:54,638 --> 00:38:55,872
Then we'd better risk the other.

623
00:38:57,023 --> 00:38:58,119
Perhaps it doesn't matter that I-no...

624
00:38:58,739 --> 00:39:00,395
No, I meant perhaps it doesn't matter...

625
00:39:00,611 --> 00:39:02,202
that I'm too short for you.

626
00:39:03,638 --> 00:39:04,562
The trousseu's all ready.

627
00:39:04,926 --> 00:39:06,653
I embroidered the monogram long ago.

628
00:39:07,425 --> 00:39:10,904
B's but...I didn't know they'd be for Benardotte.

629
00:39:28,158 --> 00:39:29,483
Look at him, he's red.He's crab red.

630
00:39:30,299 --> 00:39:31,326
He looks so offended

631
00:39:31,622 --> 00:39:32,947
Perhaps because we named him Oscar.

632
00:39:33,293 --> 00:39:34,711
You can be sure I had nothing to say about it.

633
00:39:35,193 --> 00:39:36,275
It's a hideous name.

634
00:39:36,630 --> 00:39:37,599
It is a noble name.

635
00:39:38,459 --> 00:39:39,905
It belongs to a Nordic Hero.

636
00:39:40,716 --> 00:39:42,451
May we join this happy ocassion?

637
00:39:43,094 --> 00:39:43,960
Of course.

638
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:44,836
We're honored.

639
00:39:46,675 --> 00:39:48,952
We've come to pay our compliments
to the Bernadotte Dynasty.

640
00:39:50,498 --> 00:39:50,942
Well...

641
00:39:57,579 --> 00:39:58,566
How small he is.

642
00:39:59,579 --> 00:40:00,970
They're always small at the beginning.

643
00:40:05,807 --> 00:40:06,869
Oh, I brought these for you.

644
00:40:07,150 --> 00:40:07,939
They are beautiful.

645
00:40:08,406 --> 00:40:09,813
They are from our garden in Malmaison.

646
00:40:10,045 --> 00:40:11,277
They are lovely. I put them in a vase.

647
00:40:11,764 --> 00:40:13,058
May I come with you?

648
00:40:13,492 --> 00:40:13,854
Please.

649
00:40:17,003 --> 00:40:17,644
There we are.

650
00:40:19,272 --> 00:40:19,779
There baby, all right.

651
00:40:21,356 --> 00:40:22,061
Quiet baby.

652
00:40:25,129 --> 00:40:27,095
I hear that you're not please
about my return from Egypt.

653
00:40:27,693 --> 00:40:29,155
A commander's place is with his troops.

654
00:40:29,738 --> 00:40:31,265
I returned to the place I was needed most.

655
00:40:32,088 --> 00:40:33,324
The situation here is desperate,

656
00:40:34,649 --> 00:40:36,831
riots,corruption, political murders...

657
00:40:37,725 --> 00:40:39,047
The government won't last out the month.

658
00:40:41,218 --> 00:40:43,184
I've tried and tried to grow stems like these.

659
00:40:43,184 --> 00:40:44,506
I took envy in your roses.

660
00:40:45,621 --> 00:40:46,877
I envy you your son.

661
00:40:47,676 --> 00:40:49,858
Some day I hope he'll come to visit
one of yours and Napoleon's.

662
00:40:51,558 --> 00:40:52,835
It's kind of you to hope that.

663
00:40:55,038 --> 00:40:55,832
Strange isn't it?

664
00:40:56,299 --> 00:40:58,219
With my first husband, 
I didn't really wish for children...

665
00:40:58,515 --> 00:41:00,502
And I had two quite quickly, 
for I was twenty.

666
00:41:01,791 --> 00:41:02,339
In fact...

667
00:41:02,602 --> 00:41:03,727
You're not speaking of leadership.

668
00:41:04,262 --> 00:41:06,282
What you suggest is 
dictatorship with you as the dictator.

669
00:41:07,469 --> 00:41:09,000
I'll tell you what it's up to us Bernadotte...

670
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,651
It's up to the general of 
the army to save the republic.

671
00:41:11,938 --> 00:41:12,789
What do you object to?

672
00:41:13,211 --> 00:41:14,057
Your methods...

673
00:41:14,396 --> 00:41:16,391
I see, but I must know who 
support me and who does not.

674
00:41:17,266 --> 00:41:19,247
It force me to know where do you stand?

675
00:41:19,890 --> 00:41:21,683
You came here to ask me to join in treason...

676
00:41:21,683 --> 00:41:23,130
I must ask you to leave my house.

677
00:41:25,783 --> 00:41:28,344
Well, your husband is a very stubborn man.

678
00:41:40,978 --> 00:41:43,431
Write that on November 9, 1799...

679
00:41:43,911 --> 00:41:46,967
Napoleon Bonaparte was proclaimed
the first consul of the French Republic.

680
00:41:48,468 --> 00:41:50,649
Those who tried to walk out of the
chamber of deputies in protest...

681
00:41:50,869 --> 00:41:52,011
were turned back at the exits...

682
00:41:52,898 --> 00:41:54,455
by the bayonets of Bonaparte's aides.

683
00:41:56,129 --> 00:41:57,388
If we're forced to flee...

684
00:41:57,671 --> 00:41:58,574
I could dress as a boy.

685
00:42:00,618 --> 00:42:02,043
You've been reading novels again.

686
00:42:03,649 --> 00:42:05,334
Desiree, have you heard?

687
00:42:05,958 --> 00:42:07,796
Joseph's to be Foreign Minister.

688
00:42:08,310 --> 00:42:09,775
And we're moving to the Tuileries.

689
00:42:11,015 --> 00:42:12,430
Josephine's going to do everything over...

690
00:42:12,662 --> 00:42:14,002
It's all so dingy and old-fashioned.

691
00:42:14,002 --> 00:42:15,536
Her appartment's to be in white...

692
00:42:16,030 --> 00:42:18,812
Imagine me, Julie Clary, in the Tuileries.

693
00:42:20,934 --> 00:42:22,288
You're not still writing in your diary!

694
00:42:23,192 --> 00:42:24,657
Oh, Ha, Ha, How funny!

695
00:42:25,116 --> 00:42:25,827
Why funny?

696
00:42:26,062 --> 00:42:27,465
Because everything's so different...

697
00:42:28,527 --> 00:42:31,148
I have an order from the first consul.

698
00:42:32,103 --> 00:42:34,879
General Bernadotte is to 
report to him, tomorrow at 11:00.

699
00:42:36,099 --> 00:42:37,029
So very different.

700
00:42:41,741 --> 00:42:43,338
The Nation has chosen me as its guardian...

701
00:42:43,994 --> 00:42:45,281
We've averted civil war.

702
00:42:46,966 --> 00:42:49,263
Bernadotte I ask you to join my council of state.

703
00:42:51,094 --> 00:42:51,944
Why do you do this?

704
00:42:52,152 --> 00:42:53,710
Because France can not afford to lose

705
00:42:53,924 --> 00:42:55,022
One of her most able man.

706
00:42:56,068 --> 00:42:57,386
Listen to me Bernadotte.

707
00:42:57,386 --> 00:42:58,968
Listen to some of the things I've planned.

708
00:42:59,791 --> 00:43:00,850
A unified code of laws...

709
00:43:01,337 --> 00:43:02,097
a bank of France...

710
00:43:03,161 --> 00:43:04,469
We need new roads and harbors...

711
00:43:04,469 --> 00:43:05,571
I will abolish hereditary titles...

712
00:43:06,176 --> 00:43:07,154
all these things and more...

713
00:43:07,997 --> 00:43:09,138
A new program for the republic...

714
00:43:10,077 --> 00:43:12,210
You're the last man of consequence to oppose it.

715
00:43:13,541 --> 00:43:14,896
I've never oppose the republic.

716
00:43:15,895 --> 00:43:16,579
Then you accept?

717
00:43:18,720 --> 00:43:22,071
Well I'm delight. I'm delight for yourself
as well as for your wife.

718
00:43:22,576 --> 00:43:24,161
She was never one to lurk in alleyways.

719
00:43:24,368 --> 00:43:25,597
Pasting up inflammatory posters.

720
00:43:26,705 --> 00:43:29,435
And Bernadotte if you chose to number
yourself among my friends...

721
00:43:31,710 --> 00:43:33,956
Well. you'll be most welcome...

722
00:43:35,551 --> 00:43:36,485
I give you my loyalty.

723
00:43:37,841 --> 00:43:39,073
I cannot promise you affection.

724
00:43:42,645 --> 00:43:44,129
Oscar, it's time for your lunch.

725
00:43:44,659 --> 00:43:46,863
Desiree, you're late already for the
coronation rehearsal.

726
00:43:48,219 --> 00:43:49,434
I never saw such a girl...

727
00:43:50,075 --> 00:43:51,980
The old dragon gets grouchier every year.

728
00:43:52,927 --> 00:43:55,328
Mama, will the Emperor wear his crown to bed?

729
00:43:56,172 --> 00:43:58,044
I don't know dear, it may be too heavy for him.

730
00:43:58,467 --> 00:43:59,354
Nor for Napoleon.

731
00:44:00,527 --> 00:44:01,664
Emperor of the French.

732
00:44:02,738 --> 00:44:04,501
Remember that night when he came to
visit us in Marseille?

733
00:44:05,253 --> 00:44:06,436
Would you ever have dreamed it then?

734
00:44:06,436 --> 00:44:08,868
No, but I'm sure he did, he always felt
that nothing was beyond him.

735
00:44:09,931 --> 00:44:13,289
Look Mama, I'm a Marshal of France, 
Just like Papa.

736
00:44:15,663 --> 00:44:18,250
Do you know his brother wants me to call
him Marshal "My Lord",even his wife.

737
00:44:18,875 --> 00:44:19,821
I never heard you do it.

738
00:44:19,821 --> 00:44:22,129
Oh, I do...but only in our bedroom.

739
00:44:22,727 --> 00:44:23,429
Desiree!

740
00:44:25,811 --> 00:44:29,638
Notre Dame. The interior of Notre Dame,
dressed for his majesty's coronation.

741
00:44:30,242 --> 00:44:32,647
Behold, if you please, his majesty.

742
00:44:32,965 --> 00:44:34,889
Lo...her majesty.

743
00:44:35,629 --> 00:44:38,842
The Imperial Orb so, the scepter thus,

744
00:44:39,056 --> 00:44:40,881
the sword of Charlemagne thus...

745
00:44:42,024 --> 00:44:44,521
You ladies each a wife 
of a Marshal of France accordingly...

746
00:44:45,314 --> 00:44:48,341
Now, the organ peals, the procession begins.

747
00:44:48,681 --> 00:44:51,186
Lightly, gracefully,and above all joyously...

748
00:44:51,959 --> 00:44:53,931
Her majesty start so...

749
00:44:54,266 --> 00:44:56,534
The sisters os his gracious majesty...

750
00:44:56,855 --> 00:44:58,544
lift the train of her majesty's robe...

751
00:44:58,814 --> 00:45:00,727
I don't want to carry the train...

752
00:45:00,978 --> 00:45:03,647
Nither I,she can pull it by herself,
let her walk on her knees...

753
00:45:03,891 --> 00:45:05,281
Mesdames, I implore you...

754
00:45:05,716 --> 00:45:07,479
It is his majesty's expressed wish.

755
00:45:07,827 --> 00:45:09,199
Not if he throws me out of France.

756
00:45:15,471 --> 00:45:17,856
Madame Bernadotte 
we haven't seen you in some time.

757
00:45:18,666 --> 00:45:19,413
How is your family?

758
00:45:19,632 --> 00:45:20,512
Very well your majesty.

759
00:45:21,055 --> 00:45:22,677
Your little boy, is he growing fast?

760
00:45:22,970 --> 00:45:24,425
Very fast, thank you your majesty.

761
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:28,774
What is it, Monsieur Duprier?

762
00:45:29,273 --> 00:45:32,644
Your Majesty, she's the Emperor's sister
but she is also the wife of a Marshal...

763
00:45:32,941 --> 00:45:33,412
Well?

764
00:45:33,705 --> 00:45:36,513
18 Marshal's wives, 9 pairs side by side...

765
00:45:36,824 --> 00:45:39,008
But she's also to help carry her majesty's train..

766
00:45:39,475 --> 00:45:41,044
This leaves 17 ladies only...

767
00:45:41,315 --> 00:45:45,060
How can 17 ladies form 2s, 
none to walk by themselves?

768
00:45:45,486 --> 00:45:48,761
Might I be of assistance in this difficult
and strategic operation?

769
00:45:54,485 --> 00:45:57,466
You see, we will have only 16
Marshals' wives in the procession..

770
00:45:58,102 --> 00:46:01,866
The extra one, the odd one,will carry...

771
00:46:02,084 --> 00:46:03,951
one on her majesty's lace handkerchiefs.

772
00:46:06,328 --> 00:46:07,547
On a pillow.

773
00:46:08,263 --> 00:46:10,167
Now,I think that will be a very poetic touch.

774
00:46:10,457 --> 00:46:11,507
A stroke of genius, your majesty.

775
00:46:11,861 --> 00:46:15,032
Now, I think we should allow...Uh,

776
00:46:17,790 --> 00:46:18,975
Uh, Madame,uh...

777
00:46:21,316 --> 00:46:23,437
Madame Bernadotte the responsability of this.

778
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:26,620
I think she will look lovely in sky blue.

779
00:46:27,632 --> 00:46:29,661
Sky blue isn't becoming to me,
I haven't worn it in years.

780
00:46:30,488 --> 00:46:31,292
Yes, well...

781
00:46:35,279 --> 00:46:36,228
Proceed, I will watch.

782
00:46:36,604 --> 00:46:38,951
Ladies, if you please,your positions.

783
00:46:39,772 --> 00:46:40,337
Organist.

784
00:46:42,969 --> 00:46:45,559
So, Your Majesty if I may be permitted.

785
00:46:46,482 --> 00:46:50,583
So, now ladies, we remember our
position as we rehearsed them?

786
00:46:51,754 --> 00:46:53,420
So, Your Majesty, mesdames...

787
00:46:53,732 --> 00:46:55,361
Her Majesty's train, I implore you.

788
00:46:55,717 --> 00:46:58,320
Madame Bernadotte,
in your position, if you please.

789
00:46:58,910 --> 00:47:00,067
So, Music.

790
00:47:01,033 --> 00:47:05,323
1 and 2 and 3 and 4...

791
00:47:06,075 --> 00:47:10,548
1 and 2 and 3 and 4...

792
00:47:11,671 --> 00:47:15,020
And lightly, gracefully,joyously...

793
00:47:15,602 --> 00:47:16,383
Happily.

794
00:47:16,870 --> 00:47:18,942
Left and right and...

795
00:47:19,336 --> 00:47:22,404
What seem to be the difficulty?

796
00:47:23,050 --> 00:47:24,514
We refuse to carry her train.

797
00:47:25,310 --> 00:47:27,106
We're made to do the job of page girls.

798
00:47:27,461 --> 00:47:28,958
You've heaped honors 
in everybody, but what are we?

799
00:47:29,192 --> 00:47:30,080
Your own sisters.

800
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:31,015
Nothing.

801
00:47:31,624 --> 00:47:33,075
Well, what exactly do you wish to be?

802
00:47:33,783 --> 00:47:35,230
If you want to know, a princess.

803
00:47:35,540 --> 00:47:36,164
Yes, a princess.

804
00:47:36,539 --> 00:47:39,148
I thought I treated my family with
more distinction that they deserved.

805
00:47:39,377 --> 00:47:40,488
You're Marsahlls' wives!.

806
00:47:41,063 --> 00:47:43,517
Your husband is in the Ministry of Finance,
a fiddle player!

807
00:47:44,807 --> 00:47:46,147
You are the countess Bourges!

808
00:47:46,678 --> 00:47:50,173
Yes, you made me marry the only man I knew I
wasn't the tinist bit in love with.

809
00:47:50,983 --> 00:47:53,760
Sir, I beg you graciously that you
grant your sisters' request.

810
00:47:56,289 --> 00:47:57,754
So that we may get on with the rehearsal.

811
00:47:58,369 --> 00:48:00,275
Princesses of what? Where?

812
00:48:02,996 --> 00:48:04,119
Very well. kneel.

813
00:48:09,064 --> 00:48:12,402
Now each of you are 
an Imperial Highness, a princess.

814
00:48:12,402 --> 00:48:14,540
Now, will you kindly arise and  carry the train?

815
00:48:23,712 --> 00:48:26,024
Sire, it is about the virgins.

816
00:48:28,384 --> 00:48:29,070
What about them?

817
00:48:29,531 --> 00:48:30,907
None can be found at court.

818
00:48:32,106 --> 00:48:33,106
Why must we have them?

819
00:48:33,311 --> 00:48:35,370
His majesty command 
that the coronation be modeled...

820
00:48:35,584 --> 00:48:37,706
in every details after the 
medeval ceremony at Durance...

821
00:48:37,990 --> 00:48:40,594
Thus, 12 virgins must walk to the altar...

822
00:48:40,842 --> 00:48:42,215
after the anointing of Emperor.

823
00:48:43,691 --> 00:48:48,255
I am sure they are at least 12
suitable ladies left in France.

824
00:48:51,936 --> 00:48:52,875
In sky blue.

825
00:48:58,672 --> 00:49:01,311
Last week the army even 
drafted the son of the coachman.

826
00:49:01,911 --> 00:49:03,327
Do you know how old is he?

827
00:49:04,013 --> 00:49:05,178
He is fifteen.

828
00:49:06,635 --> 00:49:08,257
What country will he die in?

829
00:49:08,695 --> 00:49:09,454
Bavaria?

830
00:49:09,826 --> 00:49:10,669
Spain?

831
00:49:11,732 --> 00:49:14,278
I tell you they are taking boys of 15.

832
00:49:14,728 --> 00:49:15,683
I know Mary.

833
00:49:16,004 --> 00:49:17,557
My nephew's at the Austrian front.

834
00:49:18,053 --> 00:49:19,424
My brother's only son.

835
00:49:20,485 --> 00:49:23,418
The marched him away 
with roses tied to his mosket.

836
00:49:25,271 --> 00:49:26,477
Everything went wrong.

837
00:49:28,005 --> 00:49:29,111
They can't find any virgins.

838
00:49:29,529 --> 00:49:31,791
And Josephine's crown with 
the other ladies,doesn't fit properly.

839
00:49:32,994 --> 00:49:34,777
She and Napoleon are having 
a church wedding tonight.

840
00:49:35,478 --> 00:49:37,065
The Pope won't crown them unless they do.

841
00:49:37,300 --> 00:49:38,562
They only had a civil ceremony before.

842
00:49:39,562 --> 00:49:40,268
What's this?

843
00:49:40,683 --> 00:49:44,241
It came for you this afternoon
from the Imperial household.

844
00:49:45,691 --> 00:49:46,925
And I'm to have a special role.

845
00:49:47,173 --> 00:49:48,581
I don't dance with all the other wives.

846
00:49:48,812 --> 00:49:51,405
I come in all alone carrying Josephine's
handkerchief on a cushion.

847
00:49:52,330 --> 00:49:53,056
Isn't that quaint?

848
00:49:53,663 --> 00:49:55,909
He's ask me to wear sky blue, which I detest.

849
00:49:56,627 --> 00:49:58,146
I don't care for you having a special role.

850
00:49:58,581 --> 00:49:59,217
He wishes...

851
00:49:59,578 --> 00:50:00,326
What did you say?

852
00:50:00,559 --> 00:50:02,774
The Emperor wished it, that I can't very well
do anything about it.

853
00:50:03,336 --> 00:50:04,458
The Emperor wished it?

854
00:50:05,363 --> 00:50:05,862
Jean?

855
00:50:05,862 --> 00:50:08,951
Everytime he sees you, the comedy,
the opera, his receptions, now...

856
00:50:09,373 --> 00:50:10,282
That's ridiculous!

857
00:50:10,282 --> 00:50:12,155
Do you realize how long it's been since he and...

858
00:50:16,908 --> 00:50:17,986
I'm nothing but a memory to him.

859
00:50:20,608 --> 00:50:22,741
Yes, a memory he'd undoubtedly like to refresh.

860
00:50:26,238 --> 00:50:27,546
"Madame la Marechal...

861
00:50:28,097 --> 00:50:30,854
In Marseilles, you kindly 
lent me some of your savings...

862
00:50:32,572 --> 00:50:33,975
so that I might travel to Paris...

863
00:50:34,835 --> 00:50:36,896
This journey had bought me good fortune...

864
00:50:37,770 --> 00:50:40,546
It is an obligation I take 
pleasure in meeting today...

865
00:50:41,892 --> 00:50:43,427
The amount involved at this time was...

866
00:50:45,207 --> 00:50:46,473
...was 98 francs..

867
00:50:49,482 --> 00:50:52,277
Thank you, Napoleon".

868
00:51:00,963 --> 00:51:03,115
If he cannot forget it's 
because I'm part of his youth.

869
00:51:06,424 --> 00:51:07,547
I won't go to the coronation.

870
00:51:09,449 --> 00:51:11,059
I'll stay in bed with a cold.

871
00:51:12,225 --> 00:51:15,177
I'm seriously ill with a cold, 
headache and sore throat.

872
00:51:15,802 --> 00:51:18,029
And I cannot take 
part of the coronation ceremony.

873
00:51:23,083 --> 00:51:24,394
Oh, I love you very much.

874
00:51:26,055 --> 00:51:26,686
And I...

875
00:51:27,451 --> 00:51:28,407
I'm not going to cry...

876
00:52:38,675 --> 00:52:40,422
Heavens! He crowned himself!

877
00:53:18,298 --> 00:53:21,760
A long time ago I pressed these roses
Josephine brought me.

878
00:53:22,946 --> 00:53:24,852
Even then I think 
she knew what would happen...

879
00:53:26,053 --> 00:53:30,313
And later, I remember the way she
looked at him at the coronation.

880
00:53:32,118 --> 00:53:35,488
Just five years back almost to the day.

881
00:53:38,660 --> 00:53:41,885
Well,this is one of his affairs I won't attend.

882
00:53:42,790 --> 00:53:45,269
This time I am staying in bed
with a cold I don't have.

883
00:53:46,878 --> 00:53:50,153
For several years past I've lost
all hopes of having children...

884
00:53:50,436 --> 00:53:52,180
for my beloved wife, the Empress Josephine.

885
00:53:53,084 --> 00:53:54,803
Yet political necessities of my monarchy

886
00:53:55,052 --> 00:53:57,424
requieres that I leave heirs to the throne,
on with providence repleace me...

887
00:53:58,722 --> 00:54:01,166
The interest of France demand...

888
00:54:01,448 --> 00:54:03,226
the dissolution of our marriage.

889
00:54:13,585 --> 00:54:16,879
I wish to state that my marriage is an obstacle...

890
00:54:17,095 --> 00:54:18,575
to the welfare of the nation.

891
00:54:19,532 --> 00:54:23,006
as I no longer expect to be able...

892
00:54:24,026 --> 00:54:26,189
to fulfill my...

893
00:54:27,768 --> 00:54:29,931
obligations.

894
00:54:35,643 --> 00:54:38,642
To fulfill my obligations, I resigned to my love...

895
00:54:39,564 --> 00:54:41,622
I owe everything to his majesty's kindness...

896
00:54:42,352 --> 00:54:44,160
As occupant of the 
throne on which he pleaces me...

897
00:54:44,700 --> 00:54:48,684
I have received abundant testimony of the
love and affection of the French people.

898
00:54:49,433 --> 00:54:50,982
It is with regard of these sentiments

899
00:54:51,514 --> 00:54:53,958
that I consent's to the wishes of my regal consul.

900
00:54:57,672 --> 00:54:59,237
You were the only one who stayed away.

901
00:55:00,009 --> 00:55:02,320
Perhaps I was the only 
one who knew how you really felt.

902
00:55:03,690 --> 00:55:04,834
That's why I sent for you.

903
00:55:06,126 --> 00:55:09,267
I wanted someone 
with me who knew how I really felt.

904
00:55:12,460 --> 00:55:13,632
I have to leave in the morning.

905
00:55:14,735 --> 00:55:16,594
The workmen are 
coming to redecorate the rooms.

906
00:55:19,715 --> 00:55:21,444
You were the only one who stayed away.

907
00:55:24,471 --> 00:55:27,205
Her Majesty wishes to retire now.
Finish that in the morning.

908
00:55:27,941 --> 00:55:29,276
Not "her majesty" anymore.

909
00:55:31,604 --> 00:55:33,770
Please take the rest of this,
it will help you to sleep.

910
00:55:34,329 --> 00:55:36,471
I've had so much already.

911
00:55:39,448 --> 00:55:41,555
You threw a glass of champagne on me once.

912
00:55:42,665 --> 00:55:44,099
I made you very unhappy.

913
00:55:47,403 --> 00:55:48,308
Forgive me.

914
00:55:49,014 --> 00:55:50,014
I didn't mean to.

915
00:55:50,304 --> 00:55:52,052
It's long ago and long since healed.

916
00:55:59,685 --> 00:56:01,369
You ought to tint your hair, Desiree.

917
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:02,400
When you wash it...

918
00:56:02,674 --> 00:56:03,502
just a little.

919
00:56:04,083 --> 00:56:05,404
Give it a reddish glow.

920
00:56:06,752 --> 00:56:07,746
It would be lovely.

921
00:56:07,985 --> 00:56:08,652
Yes Madame.

922
00:56:10,266 --> 00:56:11,264
It would be lovely.

923
00:56:12,924 --> 00:56:13,236
She's...

924
00:56:14,222 --> 00:56:15,514
She's only 18, you know...

925
00:56:17,075 --> 00:56:17,994
That Marie-Louise...

926
00:56:19,623 --> 00:56:21,213
that austrian princess he's marrying.

927
00:56:22,792 --> 00:56:24,021
She's....she's a Hapburg

928
00:56:25,531 --> 00:56:27,183
The Hapburgs are very prolific...

929
00:56:28,852 --> 00:56:30,618
She'll have no end of little princes.

930
00:56:32,225 --> 00:56:34,003
No end of little Hapsburg Bonapartes.

931
00:56:35,079 --> 00:56:36,096
I must leave now, madam.

932
00:56:37,081 --> 00:56:40,224
Please, he always knew I
couldn't have a child by him.

933
00:56:41,082 --> 00:56:42,118
I told him so.

934
00:56:42,963 --> 00:56:44,297
I even told him why.

935
00:56:45,704 --> 00:56:46,859
He always knew, Desiree.

936
00:56:49,833 --> 00:56:50,106
He...

937
00:56:52,706 --> 00:56:54,221
He always knew.

938
00:57:17,198 --> 00:57:18,762
Don't desert him, Desiree.

939
00:57:21,704 --> 00:57:25,060
When he loses his powers, he'll need someone.

940
00:58:14,388 --> 00:58:15,263
Who's there?

941
00:58:17,854 --> 00:58:18,038
Me.

942
00:58:21,054 --> 00:58:21,798
Who's me?

943
00:58:24,779 --> 00:58:25,933
I was just leaving.

944
00:58:27,786 --> 00:58:29,228
To begin with, what are you doing here?

945
00:58:30,299 --> 00:58:33,015
I wonder myself,her majesty sent for me.

946
00:58:34,448 --> 00:58:36,839
Oh, for consolation, I suppose.

947
00:58:37,881 --> 00:58:39,824
How very inventive of her to choose you.

948
00:58:40,844 --> 00:58:42,863
I always envied Josephine's sense of theater.

949
00:58:43,559 --> 00:58:45,642
You are unkind sir, she's trully heartbroken.

950
00:58:46,304 --> 00:58:47,648
Don't whistle so with pity.

951
00:58:48,022 --> 00:58:52,034
She leaves with 700 dresses,250 hats,
3 million francs a year...

952
00:58:52,435 --> 00:58:53,326
Has she been crying?

953
00:58:54,172 --> 00:58:54,656
Yes.

954
00:58:55,402 --> 00:58:56,849
Well, she'll cry for several days.

955
00:58:57,181 --> 00:59:00,364
Have a facial massage 
and go out and order ten new gowns.

956
00:59:01,813 --> 00:59:03,497
If you'll just show me the way out of here...

957
00:59:05,039 --> 00:59:06,148
The door to the hall is there,

958
00:59:08,073 --> 00:59:09,675
Don't you want to put your shoes on first?

959
00:59:25,388 --> 00:59:26,275
Desiree.

960
00:59:27,823 --> 00:59:29,006
Citizeness Desiree.

961
00:59:30,475 --> 00:59:33,605
Tell me, how is that fine fellow, your brother?

962
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:37,800
He's been living here for some time.

963
00:59:39,844 --> 00:59:42,684
There is now a Paris branch of Clary and Son.

964
00:59:43,869 --> 00:59:46,212
Oh, yes Clary and son.

965
00:59:47,446 --> 00:59:49,158
I remember you wanted me to go to work for him...

966
00:59:50,284 --> 00:59:51,387
Selling ribbons, I believe.

967
00:59:53,604 --> 00:59:54,992
Yes, your majesty.

968
00:59:57,959 --> 01:00:02,644
Well, we're quite different people now, aren't we?

969
01:00:02,043 --> 01:00:03,173
Or are we the same?

970
01:00:04,339 --> 01:00:06,544
If I may have my shoes, please.

971
01:00:08,256 --> 01:00:10,143
It's a pity you're married to Bernadotte.

972
01:00:12,654 --> 01:00:14,233
Well,to the future, them.

973
01:00:15,928 --> 01:00:17,458
Marie-Louise of Austria.

974
01:00:20,455 --> 01:00:21,984
Politically, she's very desirable.

975
01:00:23,325 --> 01:00:26,819
There is a certain look of fertility about her.

976
01:00:29,445 --> 01:00:30,748
You don't approve of this marriage?

977
01:00:31,250 --> 01:00:33,184
I do not approve of your divorce, sire.

978
01:00:34,984 --> 01:00:36,930
I marry and divorce for France.

979
01:00:38,488 --> 01:00:40,999
And you will kindly stop calling me sire?.

980
01:00:46,988 --> 01:00:50,233
This belonged to the 
last austrian to inhabit these quarters...

981
01:00:50,503 --> 01:00:51,390
Marie Antoniette.

982
01:00:51,723 --> 01:00:53,416
The new austrian undoubtedly want to waltz.

983
01:00:54,559 --> 01:00:56,692
I never learned, teach me.

984
01:00:58,894 --> 01:01:00,269
I cannot! Not here.

985
01:01:01,190 --> 01:01:01,880
Here...

986
01:01:03,921 --> 01:01:05,264
and now.

987
01:01:13,722 --> 01:01:14,677
We are different.

988
01:01:17,537 --> 01:01:19,057
I will not try to kiss you again.

989
01:01:21,022 --> 01:01:22,053
Let us waltz.

990
01:01:23,766 --> 01:01:24,472
No.

991
01:01:24,859 --> 01:01:25,736
We will waltz.

992
01:01:30,850 --> 01:01:32,682
No.you have to keep on turning.

993
01:01:35,065 --> 01:01:36,123
1,2, 3...

994
01:01:36,529 --> 01:01:37,558
1,2, 3...

995
01:01:37,952 --> 01:01:39,089
2, 3...

996
01:01:41,646 --> 01:01:42,195
2, 3...

997
01:01:46,607 --> 01:01:48,011
1, 2, 3...

998
01:01:48,376 --> 01:01:49,403
1, 2, 3...

999
01:01:55,784 --> 01:01:58,156
"Our armies are everywhere now,
even in Spain...

1000
01:01:59,255 --> 01:02:00,921
and my husband's been heaped with honors.

1001
01:02:01,683 --> 01:02:04,446
Oscar's likes best Denmark's
order of the elephant.

1002
01:02:05,616 --> 01:02:08,201
But Jean-Baptiste treasures
this one from Sweden.

1003
01:02:09,263 --> 01:02:11,467
Since he's been wounded and
sent home,the last time...

1004
01:02:11,679 --> 01:02:13,008
I have seen him look at it often.

1005
01:02:13,961 --> 01:02:15,929
With a most curious smile."

1006
01:02:49,011 --> 01:02:49,783
Desiree.

1007
01:02:50,200 --> 01:02:51,042
Desiree, wake up.

1008
01:02:51,809 --> 01:02:52,848
Wake up, hurry!

1009
01:02:53,117 --> 01:02:53,910
Put something around you.

1010
01:02:54,206 --> 01:02:55,004
Why must I wake up?

1011
01:02:55,691 --> 01:02:56,285
What is it, Papa?

1012
01:02:57,001 --> 01:02:57,903
There is a new lord?

1013
01:02:58,121 --> 01:02:59,121
You'll heard all about it, just hurry.

1014
01:02:59,121 --> 01:03:00,869
There have been rumors for some time.
I didn't want to tell you.

1015
01:03:01,230 --> 01:03:03,054
Help Madame Bernadotte, a robe,
anything. Do you understand?

1016
01:03:04,112 --> 01:03:05,890
No, I don't understand a thing!.

1017
01:03:09,250 --> 01:03:11,061
As chamberlain of his majesty, Charles XIII...

1018
01:03:11,443 --> 01:03:13,254
I have the honor to 
report that the swedish parlament...

1019
01:03:13,908 --> 01:03:15,033
has unanimously elected...

1020
01:03:15,827 --> 01:03:19,357
Jean-Baptiste Barnadotte 
heir to the throne of Sweden.

1021
01:03:21,491 --> 01:03:23,255
Heir...to the throne.?

1022
01:03:24,034 --> 01:03:26,578
King Charles whises to adopt Marshal 
Bernadotte as his beloved son...

1023
01:03:27,222 --> 01:03:29,322
and receive him as a Crown Princes.

1024
01:03:30,496 --> 01:03:34,354
That would mean that I'd be
crown princess of Sweden.

1025
01:03:34,689 --> 01:03:35,425
Yes, Madame.

1026
01:03:36,033 --> 01:03:37,277
And eventually, Queen.

1027
01:03:37,654 --> 01:03:39,868
Queen?

1028
01:03:42,447 --> 01:03:43,694
But I don't know how to be a Queen.

1029
01:03:44,629 --> 01:03:47,751
We regret that you are not at time to
become accostumed to the idea.

1030
01:03:48,719 --> 01:03:49,811
We shall await your decision.

1031
01:03:52,025 --> 01:03:53,023
I'll make it quickly.

1032
01:03:55,692 --> 01:03:57,653
You gentlemen must have had a
long and timed journey.

1033
01:03:57,951 --> 01:03:58,993
You must join us for a glass of wine..

1034
01:04:00,044 --> 01:04:02,112
Look Papa,three crowns and a lion.

1035
01:04:02,565 --> 01:04:03,799
What a beatiful coat of arms.

1036
01:04:04,267 --> 01:04:07,436
Please, tell me why the 
sweden chose my husband.

1037
01:04:08,261 --> 01:04:10,619
Madame Bernadotte has not occupied
herself with affairs of state.

1038
01:04:11,569 --> 01:04:15,454
Madame, for a century now,the importance of
Sweden as a great nation

1039
01:04:15,725 --> 01:04:16,794
has been failing.

1040
01:04:17,167 --> 01:04:19,669
Our present king is very old, he's childless.

1041
01:04:20,427 --> 01:04:21,645
If he dies without a heir...

1042
01:04:21,972 --> 01:04:24,922
there are certains forces within the
nation that may provoke civil war.

1043
01:04:25,935 --> 01:04:28,166
If that happens our country may well dissapears...

1044
01:04:28,558 --> 01:04:31,700
We're an ancient state madame, 
we want to survive.

1045
01:04:32,084 --> 01:04:33,947
My husband is not swedish.

1046
01:04:34,219 --> 01:04:36,154
Precisely, we need fresh blood.

1047
01:04:36,746 --> 01:04:38,836
We need a man on 
stature that Europe respects.

1048
01:04:39,587 --> 01:04:41,848
To be honest, we need a marshal of France.

1049
01:04:42,379 --> 01:04:45,876
And Bernadotte es the only marshal
who is not servile to Napoleon.

1050
01:04:46,439 --> 01:04:47,728
But I'd have not learn swedish.

1051
01:04:48,026 --> 01:04:49,320
I'm terrible at lenguages.

1052
01:04:49,881 --> 01:04:53,103
Your Royal Higness I trust I will be your guide ...

1053
01:04:54,050 --> 01:04:55,704
May I teach you your first swedish word?

1054
01:04:56,511 --> 01:04:57,390
Skaal.

1055
01:04:59,678 --> 01:05:00,833
Skaal.

1056
01:05:01,068 --> 01:05:01,664
Skaal.

1057
01:05:01,943 --> 01:05:03,173
Sk..skaal.

1058
01:05:20,012 --> 01:05:22,119
Well, you submitted a 
remarkable request, Bernadotte.

1059
01:05:23,486 --> 01:05:25,075
You wish to surrender your french citizenship.

1060
01:05:25,075 --> 01:05:26,293
and resign from the army.

1061
01:05:28,837 --> 01:05:30,836
I can respect a man's desires to ascent a throne

1062
01:05:31,066 --> 01:05:33,582
but to changes his nationality is
extremely incomprehensible.

1063
01:05:35,330 --> 01:05:38,740
My brother Joseph is King of Spain,
and he remains a french citizen.

1064
01:05:39,614 --> 01:05:41,986
Louis King of Holland but he would't
like anybody calling him a dutchman.

1065
01:05:42,899 --> 01:05:46,250
Jerome of Wesphalia, Marshal Murat,
Caroline's husband

1066
01:05:46,916 --> 01:05:50,397
King of Naples, all rulers,
yet all still frenchmen.

1067
01:05:51,173 --> 01:05:55,559
Madame Bernadotte have you given
considerables thoughts to this matter?

1068
01:05:56,108 --> 01:05:57,119
I have sir.

1069
01:05:57,576 --> 01:05:59,052
Do you know where Sweden is?

1070
01:05:59,741 --> 01:06:00,674
The North Pole.

1071
01:06:01,444 --> 01:06:02,952
Crown Princess of Icecle land.

1072
01:06:03,482 --> 01:06:06,588
And always in want, tell her something
of swedish court ceremony.

1073
01:06:07,322 --> 01:06:08,433
It is very rigid madam.

1074
01:06:09,161 --> 01:06:11,681
The Swedish Royal House 
is extremely conventional.

1075
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:15,468
My feet hurt sire, may I sit down?

1076
01:06:19,210 --> 01:06:20,911
The Swedish Royal House is also mad.

1077
01:06:21,487 --> 01:06:23,828
The present king is incapable of
pronounce one coherent sentence.

1078
01:06:24,449 --> 01:06:26,685
The one before he was deposed
because he was insane.

1079
01:06:29,146 --> 01:06:29,909
Really.

1080
01:06:32,779 --> 01:06:34,299
Since I hope to join that monarchy, sire.

1081
01:06:34,902 --> 01:06:36,229
I must ask you not to insult it.

1082
01:06:37,108 --> 01:06:38,072
I request your decision.

1083
01:06:45,758 --> 01:06:47,747
Your majesty, England has been breaking...

1084
01:06:48,006 --> 01:06:50,338
our continental blokade through Sweden.

1085
01:06:56,586 --> 01:06:57,697
What a joke on the english...

1086
01:06:58,799 --> 01:07:00,611
A French Marshal on the swedish throne.

1087
01:07:02,107 --> 01:07:03,625
Very well, Bernadotte, go to Sweden.

1088
01:07:04,514 --> 01:07:06,466
But of course I can not allowe you
to renounce your citizenship.

1089
01:07:07,115 --> 01:07:07,991
It would be impossible.

1090
01:07:08,427 --> 01:07:09,381
I will call upon you

1091
01:07:09,612 --> 01:07:10,987
should the frontiers of France need defending.

1092
01:07:11,829 --> 01:07:14,435
That will not become necessary since
France no longer have any frontiers.

1093
01:07:15,289 --> 01:07:17,489
His majesty's suggesting 
that with you in Stockholm.

1094
01:07:18,036 --> 01:07:20,189
the...shall we say interests...

1095
01:07:20,844 --> 01:07:22,871
of France and Sweden would always coincide.

1096
01:07:25,181 --> 01:07:27,103
I should, of course, always serve
the interest of Sweden.

1097
01:07:30,639 --> 01:07:32,157
And the interests of France.

1098
01:07:34,090 --> 01:07:35,984
I should serve the interest of my former country

1099
01:07:36,621 --> 01:07:38,705
whenever they do not conflict
with the interest of Sweden.

1100
01:07:44,118 --> 01:07:46,522
Can it possible be that you have forgotten...

1101
01:07:46,738 --> 01:07:48,487
what your former country meant to you?

1102
01:07:49,924 --> 01:07:52,435
Can it be that you've forgotten
the battles which you fought

1103
01:07:52,668 --> 01:07:54,074
and the army which you led?

1104
01:07:55,132 --> 01:07:57,724
It is possible that you have
forgotten the ideals of your youth?

1105
01:07:59,384 --> 01:08:00,873
I remember the ideals of my youth,sire.

1106
01:08:02,029 --> 01:08:03,589
But at times when I feel 
that I have been betrayed.

1107
01:08:07,258 --> 01:08:07,881
Go on.

1108
01:08:09,130 --> 01:08:10,675
I've watch you juggle the thrones of Europe...

1109
01:08:12,136 --> 01:08:13,469
I've seen you makes kings and queens...

1110
01:08:13,469 --> 01:08:14,584
with your brothers and sisters...

1111
01:08:15,733 --> 01:08:18,240
Theirs subjects despise them.

1112
01:08:19,363 --> 01:08:21,297
I will not be a puppet to be move for your pleasure...

1113
01:08:22,347 --> 01:08:25,136
If I go to Sweden it will be as the
swedish crown prince or not at all.

1114
01:08:26,271 --> 01:08:28,204
Sweden may not posses the grandeur of Spain...

1115
01:08:28,797 --> 01:08:29,796
the climates of Naples,

1116
01:08:30,689 --> 01:08:32,207
It possesses something far richer...

1117
01:08:32,823 --> 01:08:34,040
a free parliament.

1118
01:08:34,807 --> 01:08:36,411
It has chosen me to rule it freely.

1119
01:08:37,617 --> 01:08:39,002
I will govern according with my own ideas...

1120
01:08:39,364 --> 01:08:40,592
and those of my people.

1121
01:08:43,492 --> 01:08:45,973
Will you remind him that hi is a frenchman

1122
01:08:47,194 --> 01:08:49,576
and his emperor has the right to command him!

1123
01:08:49,919 --> 01:08:50,950
You were born to command, sire.

1124
01:08:52,092 --> 01:08:53,539
I was not born  to obey.

1125
01:08:55,506 --> 01:08:57,158
You will remain a marshal of France.

1126
01:08:58,269 --> 01:09:00,918
and when there's a new war,
you will lead one of my armies...

1127
01:09:01,837 --> 01:09:04,287
and furthermore you will add your
swedish regiments to ours!

1128
01:09:06,739 --> 01:09:08,257
Would you make me a greater man than yourself

1129
01:09:08,874 --> 01:09:10,568
by obliging me to refuse a crown?

1130
01:09:19,300 --> 01:09:20,841
Madame, is this your wish?

1131
01:09:23,168 --> 01:09:24,240
It is my wish, sire.

1132
01:09:24,541 --> 01:09:26,456
Very well, I see you have your
interest, and I have mine.

1133
01:09:50,888 --> 01:09:52,537
Your Royal Highness will love Stockholm.

1134
01:09:52,896 --> 01:09:53,961
It's a beautiful city.

1135
01:09:54,816 --> 01:09:56,784
They called it the Venice of the North.

1136
01:09:57,966 --> 01:09:59,761
I prefer the Venice of the South.

1137
01:10:01,885 --> 01:10:03,036
I put on muy woolen underdrawers

1138
01:10:03,322 --> 01:10:04,488
but I'm still freezen!

1139
01:10:05,942 --> 01:10:08,138
Don't worry nobody are 
going to look under my skirts.

1140
01:11:30,836 --> 01:11:32,271
I hate palaces!

1141
01:11:35,396 --> 01:11:37,856
Well, literally the royal family 
request that you stop sliding

1142
01:11:38,093 --> 01:11:39,556
acroos the throne room with Oscar.

1143
01:11:40,492 --> 01:11:42,052
Desiree you must learn a little restraint.

1144
01:11:42,884 --> 01:11:44,409
That's the most difficult thing of all.

1145
01:12:06,720 --> 01:12:08,124
I just can't cope with any of it!

1146
01:12:08,383 --> 01:12:09,155
Not any of it!

1147
01:12:09,506 --> 01:12:12,224
I walk wrong, I curtsy wrong, I talk wrong.

1148
01:12:12,457 --> 01:12:13,752
I can't even manage the names.

1149
01:12:14,477 --> 01:12:15,802
Countess Lewenhaupt.

1150
01:12:15,802 --> 01:12:15,802
Baron Lewenhelm.

1151
01:12:18,884 --> 01:12:20,413
Chancellor Wederstaed.

1152
01:12:20,803 --> 01:12:23,329
Dorfningholm, and Durogartem.

1153
01:12:23,664 --> 01:12:25,160
Everything is witn a umlaut.

1154
01:12:26,089 --> 01:12:27,728
The Royal Family has suggested a few tutors.

1155
01:12:28,124 --> 01:12:30,756
Tutors, John? I haven't been able to
learn anything since I was ten.

1156
01:12:33,282 --> 01:12:37,153
Oh, I'll try, I'll try.

1157
01:12:39,245 --> 01:12:40,708
Lu-ven-haupt.

1158
01:12:41,881 --> 01:12:43,298
Lu-end-Haupt.

1159
01:12:43,910 --> 01:12:46,249
Lu- Ven- Haupt.

1160
01:12:47,508 --> 01:12:49,228
Lu- Ven- Haupt.

1161
01:13:02,798 --> 01:13:06,201
But when I aught in spring appears...

1162
01:13:06,813 --> 01:13:13,330
The flowers will remember...

1163
01:13:13,991 --> 01:13:15,029
Oh...

1164
01:13:15,248 --> 01:13:18,491
Cold and White in the winter night...

1165
01:13:19,259 --> 01:13:22,331
Lies the drifted snow...

1166
01:13:22,643 --> 01:13:24,356
Snow...

1167
01:13:27,322 --> 01:13:29,181
I wanted to ask you my dear daughter...

1168
01:13:29,415 --> 01:13:31,379
whether you feel you are fulfilling your duties.

1169
01:13:31,596 --> 01:13:33,301
as crown princess of Sweden.

1170
01:13:34,623 --> 01:13:35,994
I don't know your Majesty.

1171
01:13:37,449 --> 01:13:38,710
You don't know, my dear daughter?

1172
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:42,969
Well I can't judge, I'd never
been a crown princess before.

1173
01:13:43,422 --> 01:13:46,217
It's extremely unfortunate that you do not know.

1174
01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:50,909
but I'll tell you how a crown
princess does not fulfill her duties.

1175
01:13:52,062 --> 01:13:55,216
A crown princess does not fall asleep in public.

1176
01:13:55,983 --> 01:13:59,823
At court functions, she remains
awake and converses graciously.

1177
01:14:00,601 --> 01:14:02,579
She does not act as she was deaf and dumb.

1178
01:14:04,074 --> 01:14:07,823
I am sorry, your Majesty, but I keep still
so as not to embarrass my husband.

1179
01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:11,166
I sometimes say things which 
proof to be embarrasing.

1180
01:14:11,798 --> 01:14:13,748
A crown princess does not allow her servants

1181
01:14:14,017 --> 01:14:15,617
to call her by her name.

1182
01:14:15,994 --> 01:14:18,350
Marie? But she has called me Desiree all my life.

1183
01:14:19,115 --> 01:14:22,567
A crowm princess does not 
wander in the streets alone.

1184
01:14:22,567 --> 01:14:24,045
Inspecting the silk stores.

1185
01:14:24,388 --> 01:14:26,103
And why not? I used to be in the business

1186
01:14:26,789 --> 01:14:28,992
I must insist that you forget that you used to be!

1187
01:14:29,209 --> 01:14:31,364
I'm sorry your Majesty but I 
forget nothing or nobody!

1188
01:14:31,802 --> 01:14:32,966
You will have to in the future.

1189
01:14:33,683 --> 01:14:35,934
Your behavior is already 
one burden to the swedes people.

1190
01:14:36,670 --> 01:14:38,727
Do not permit your origin to become another.

1191
01:14:39,393 --> 01:14:40,410
If I may leave now.

1192
01:14:40,410 --> 01:14:41,326
No, you may not.

1193
01:14:41,326 --> 01:14:42,845
I am leaving your Majesty.

1194
01:14:45,258 --> 01:14:46,416
I am leaving Sweden.

1195
01:14:57,841 --> 01:14:59,167
May I anounce your Royal Highness?

1196
01:14:59,393 --> 01:15:01,577
No, thank you. I'm accostumed to seeing
my husband without being anounced.

1197
01:15:01,952 --> 01:15:03,260
But I'm obliged to anounce you.

1198
01:15:03,544 --> 01:15:04,311
Who obliges you to?

1199
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:06,443
Tradition, your Royal Highness, for centuries...

1200
01:15:06,443 --> 01:15:08,596
Oh, don't threat, I won't upset 
your tradition much longer.

1201
01:15:12,872 --> 01:15:14,090
Your Royal Highness.

1202
01:15:14,435 --> 01:15:15,076
Your Royal Highness.

1203
01:15:15,635 --> 01:15:16,863
Is there something particular, Desiree?

1204
01:15:16,863 --> 01:15:18,081
Yes, I wish to speak to you.

1205
01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:21,046
I'll wait untill you've finished.

1206
01:15:28,459 --> 01:15:31,030
It's a question of breaking trade with England.

1207
01:15:31,235 --> 01:15:32,388
Or defying Napoleon.

1208
01:15:33,526 --> 01:15:34,695
There are no other choices.

1209
01:15:35,573 --> 01:15:37,332
We must mantain peace with Napoleon.

1210
01:15:37,675 --> 01:15:40,036
Napoleon's idea of peace is no one
should mention or oppose him.

1211
01:15:40,389 --> 01:15:42,096
I will not allow him to dictate our trade policies.

1212
01:15:42,890 --> 01:15:45,247
If your Royal Highness keep to that
there will be resistance.

1213
01:15:46,004 --> 01:15:48,023
I hope you can considerer your own position.

1214
01:15:50,046 --> 01:15:52,123
I fully realize that I am still on
probation here in Sweden...

1215
01:15:52,688 --> 01:15:53,278
You are...uh...

1216
01:15:57,138 --> 01:15:58,771
Gentlemen, I believe we'll consider
this another time.

1217
01:16:13,788 --> 01:16:15,288
Now if you'll tell me what is so important...

1218
01:16:15,540 --> 01:16:17,086
that a council of state must stop for it?

1219
01:16:19,300 --> 01:16:20,891
I had a dreadful scene with the Queen.

1220
01:16:22,203 --> 01:16:24,866
I was unspeakable, but so was she.

1221
01:16:27,096 --> 01:16:29,359
Don't be angry with me 
Jean Baptiste, please, don't...

1222
01:16:29,579 --> 01:16:30,359
How can I not be angry?

1223
01:16:31,043 --> 01:16:32,374
Didn't you hear what we were discussing?

1224
01:16:33,091 --> 01:16:34,772
Do you do any effort to know what's
going on in the world?

1225
01:16:35,832 --> 01:16:37,535
Napoleon's set on a new blood bath in Europe...

1226
01:16:38,258 --> 01:16:40,769
Someone must stop him somewhere, 
and you want me to concern myself with

1227
01:16:40,769 --> 01:16:42,276
a spat between you and the Queen.?

1228
01:16:44,287 --> 01:16:45,852
Well, whatever it's about, 
perhaps the Queen is right.

1229
01:16:50,730 --> 01:16:52,434
I came to tell you that I'm leaving.

1230
01:16:59,097 --> 01:17:00,122
I'm going home.

1231
01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:12,838
You are home.

1232
01:17:14,286 --> 01:17:15,129
I'm sorry Desiree.

1233
01:17:16,095 --> 01:17:17,500
I'm tired, I'm upset these days.

1234
01:17:25,083 --> 01:17:25,581
Look.

1235
01:17:26,869 --> 01:17:28,281
There's Oscar in the front rank.

1236
01:17:41,966 --> 01:17:44,259
Why do they always 
march into battle with music.?

1237
01:17:45,206 --> 01:17:46,174
It help them to keep in step.

1238
01:17:47,660 --> 01:17:48,690
He'll make a goodn soldier.

1239
01:17:50,812 --> 01:17:52,244
Some day he'll make a good prince.

1240
01:17:52,787 --> 01:17:54,597
And a good king like his father.

1241
01:17:57,171 --> 01:17:58,592
Do you know what they call his mother?

1242
01:18:00,634 --> 01:18:01,367
A foreigner.

1243
01:18:04,440 --> 01:18:06,890
That is why I must return to France.
I only embarrass you here.

1244
01:18:07,732 --> 01:18:11,155
I lower your prestige more every day.
Say you'll let me go, Jean.

1245
01:18:12,167 --> 01:18:13,306
Do not ask me to say it.

1246
01:18:15,989 --> 01:18:17,705
When your position here is stronger,

1247
01:18:18,547 --> 01:18:20,993
and the people accept you 
complety, I will come back.

1248
01:18:21,356 --> 01:18:22,336
When will that be?

1249
01:18:23,114 --> 01:18:25,533
Not until Napoleon is stopped there
will be any security for me.

1250
01:18:25,877 --> 01:18:26,661
Or peace for anyone.

1251
01:18:28,075 --> 01:18:29,041
I cannot let you go.

1252
01:18:29,041 --> 01:18:30,076
I cannot do it without you.

1253
01:18:30,076 --> 01:18:31,622
Dear, you cannot do with me.

1254
01:18:31,899 --> 01:18:33,699
There's too much at stake!YOu know it.

1255
01:18:37,642 --> 01:18:39,059
Why do you look at me like that?

1256
01:18:40,401 --> 01:18:41,261
Because you are right.

1257
01:18:42,382 --> 01:18:43,196
Because I love you.

1258
01:18:45,411 --> 01:18:46,499
BEcause he will see you again.

1259
01:18:51,569 --> 01:18:55,285
When it's spring in Paris, I'll go to our brigde.

1260
01:18:57,124 --> 01:19:00,355
Look out at the Seine, and remember.

1261
01:19:27,636 --> 01:19:28,572
Let's go back to the table.

1262
01:19:33,380 --> 01:19:34,585
I'm so glad I made you come.

1263
01:19:35,547 --> 01:19:36,736
After all, it's an occasion.

1264
01:19:37,483 --> 01:19:39,866
And you've been here 
eight months, living like a nun.

1265
01:19:41,106 --> 01:19:42,051
Skaal.

1266
01:19:42,051 --> 01:19:42,987
Happy new year, Desiree.

1267
01:19:51,119 --> 01:19:52,196
The emperor.

1268
01:20:17,557 --> 01:20:20,241
I regret that affairs of state
kept me from joining you until now.

1269
01:20:20,990 --> 01:20:24,158
Now I asked my son to be with us here on 
these eve,from this great year for France.

1270
01:20:25,435 --> 01:20:28,033
To the health of his young majesty.

1271
01:20:28,461 --> 01:20:29,225
It's for you.

1272
01:20:41,238 --> 01:20:42,236
He's damp.

1273
01:20:44,223 --> 01:20:45,127
Precious.

1274
01:20:55,227 --> 01:20:57,685
I heard that your royal higness return
to France some time ago.

1275
01:20:58,614 --> 01:21:00,790
May I ask what caused for
you to leave your own country?

1276
01:21:01,530 --> 01:21:02,446
The cold, sire.

1277
01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:03,692
So, the cold.

1278
01:21:04,630 --> 01:21:07,247
Member of visiting royal houses 
usually request an audience...

1279
01:21:07,499 --> 01:21:08,558
when they visit my capital.

1280
01:21:09,870 --> 01:21:10,742
Court courtesy.

1281
01:21:11,522 --> 01:21:13,442
I did not think your 
majesty overly concern himself

1282
01:21:13,442 --> 01:21:14,818
with matters of courtesy.

1283
01:21:17,045 --> 01:21:19,853
You well.Madame, 
since you're no longer a citinzen,

1284
01:21:20,704 --> 01:21:22,560
you remain in France 
because of my courtesy.

1285
01:21:43,736 --> 01:21:46,188
1,2,3...1,2,3..

1286
01:21:46,468 --> 01:21:47,454
You do well your majesty.

1287
01:21:48,171 --> 01:21:49,932
I was taught well your royal highness.

1288
01:21:56,450 --> 01:21:58,229
That must be the real 
reason why she left Sweden.

1289
01:21:58,667 --> 01:22:00,818
Yes, she's still in love with him.

1290
01:22:03,223 --> 01:22:05,083
He's still in love with her, I'm sure of it.

1291
01:22:05,812 --> 01:22:07,495
My brother and his affairs, he's such a fool.

1292
01:22:09,679 --> 01:22:11,396
When do you plan to 
return to Stockholm, Madame?

1293
01:22:11,941 --> 01:22:13,663
When it is no longer cold there, sire.

1294
01:22:17,224 --> 01:22:18,066
Do you not miss your son?

1295
01:22:18,661 --> 01:22:20,593
Only a little less than I miss his father.

1296
01:22:27,643 --> 01:22:29,703
In the meantime your husband
is playing a dangerous game.

1297
01:22:30,190 --> 01:22:32,501
Reports reach me that Sweden
is discussing alliancde with Russia.

1298
01:22:33,292 --> 01:22:34,155
Now, how truth is this?

1299
01:22:34,902 --> 01:22:36,880
I only know that Sweden 
whishes to remain at peace.

1300
01:22:38,067 --> 01:22:38,690
Impossible!

1301
01:22:39,313 --> 01:22:40,832
Time has come for choosing sides.

1302
01:22:41,670 --> 01:22:44,181
Do you realize that in a few days I will
send the greatest army of all times...

1303
01:22:44,855 --> 01:22:46,886
to Russia and if not Russia to England?

1304
01:22:47,834 --> 01:22:50,826
Urge your husband to win our friendship
not oure enemity for your own safe.

1305
01:22:51,035 --> 01:22:52,512
I'm sorry but I Know nothing about politics.

1306
01:22:55,449 --> 01:22:57,286
You would do well to take me seriously.

1307
01:22:57,986 --> 01:23:00,489
You forget I was the first person 
who ever took you seriously.

1308
01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:05,740
You've developed Desiree.

1309
01:23:09,437 --> 01:23:10,232
Ladies and Gentlemen,

1310
01:23:11,234 --> 01:23:13,530
answer me,has the nation 
ever had such a lovely hostage?

1311
01:23:16,462 --> 01:23:17,049
You laugh?

1312
01:23:18,689 --> 01:23:21,468
Earlier I was working on 
an order to Marshal Davout...

1313
01:23:22,285 --> 01:23:23,743
it instruct him to march across Sweden

1314
01:23:24,042 --> 01:23:25,693
to cover the left flank 
of our approach to Russia.

1315
01:23:26,481 --> 01:23:28,382
Technically that puts us at war with Sweden.

1316
01:23:28,911 --> 01:23:31,139
and her royal highness is my hostage.

1317
01:23:31,729 --> 01:23:33,102
But I offer her my protection.

1318
01:23:35,100 --> 01:23:36,221
And for the first act of the new year was

1319
01:23:36,441 --> 01:23:38,062
the disregard of the neutrality of another country.

1320
01:23:38,344 --> 01:23:38,751
No.

1321
01:23:39,332 --> 01:23:40,575
My last act in the old year.

1322
01:23:45,272 --> 01:23:46,518
The church-bells will ring with our victories.

1323
01:23:47,208 --> 01:23:49,923
Before next new year's 
eve I will sleep in Moscow.

1324
01:24:40,962 --> 01:24:42,646
Desiree! Desiree!

1325
01:24:42,646 --> 01:24:44,411
Oh, Maarie, thank the 
lord it was a dream!

1326
01:24:45,151 --> 01:24:46,534
It was terrible Marie!

1327
01:24:46,735 --> 01:24:48,126
I saw Oscar on the battlefield.

1328
01:24:48,503 --> 01:24:51,230
He was all grown-up and wounded 
and bleeding.and blood everywhere.

1329
01:24:52,228 --> 01:24:53,244
Bonaparte is here, Desiree.

1330
01:24:55,334 --> 01:24:56,033
He's here.

1331
01:24:57,425 --> 01:25:00,111
He has return from Moscow, just now.

1332
01:25:17,893 --> 01:25:19,141
Allow me, Your Royal Higness.

1333
01:25:19,698 --> 01:25:21,796
I am General Coulaincourt, the Emperor's Aide.

1334
01:25:26,769 --> 01:25:28,309
No one in Paris knows that we have returned.

1335
01:25:29,716 --> 01:25:31,414
We have ridden for many days and nights.

1336
01:25:35,211 --> 01:25:36,882
Did you obtain that dressing gown in Sweden?

1337
01:25:40,118 --> 01:25:41,386
No, it's from Paris.

1338
01:25:43,055 --> 01:25:43,832
Very becoming.

1339
01:25:45,704 --> 01:25:47,203
Marie bring some brandy, please.

1340
01:25:51,931 --> 01:25:53,099
You seem surprise to see me.

1341
01:25:54,721 --> 01:25:55,252
Of course.

1342
01:25:56,998 --> 01:25:58,363
And yet we're old friends.

1343
01:25:59,575 --> 01:26:00,357
As I remember.

1344
01:26:02,668 --> 01:26:04,100
Why should you be surprised at my visit?

1345
01:26:06,202 --> 01:26:06,793
The late hour

1346
01:26:08,824 --> 01:26:10,446
and the fact that you come unshaven.

1347
01:26:13,596 --> 01:26:14,783
Yes, forgive me.

1348
01:26:15,968 --> 01:26:17,810
I seen to have forgotten about it

1349
01:26:18,589 --> 01:26:19,340
in the last few days.

1350
01:26:19,731 --> 01:26:20,619
May I ask why...-

1351
01:26:20,883 --> 01:26:23,456
No, no, you may not ask...anything.

1352
01:26:31,151 --> 01:26:33,553
Coulaincourt, I should like to be
alone with your royal higness

1353
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:34,968
if you don't mind.

1354
01:26:35,284 --> 01:26:35,935
Thank you, sire.

1355
01:26:37,526 --> 01:26:38,465
Your royal Higness.

1356
01:26:44,504 --> 01:26:47,916
I was about to ask why I'm honored
with this unexpected call.

1357
01:26:49,466 --> 01:26:50,944
This call is no honor.

1358
01:26:55,395 --> 01:26:56,497
I'm here on a mission.

1359
01:27:04,877 --> 01:27:06,514
I have come from the steppes of Russia.

1360
01:27:06,731 --> 01:27:08,166
Where my soldiers lies buried

1361
01:27:10,120 --> 01:27:11,792
The ones that still lives are snowblind.

1362
01:27:12,128 --> 01:27:14,032
and they whimper and cry like children

1363
01:27:14,032 --> 01:27:16,123
who do not understand 
what has happened to them.

1364
01:27:19,305 --> 01:27:20,396
I have come from a land

1365
01:27:21,321 --> 01:27:24,532
where men crowl under 
dead comrades to keep warm.

1366
01:27:26,045 --> 01:27:27,634
How can I send a shawl?

1367
01:27:29,600 --> 01:27:31,085
I knitted a shawl for my nephew.

1368
01:27:32,658 --> 01:27:33,657
Help me to get it to him.

1369
01:27:33,936 --> 01:27:34,673
He needs it there.

1370
01:27:36,358 --> 01:27:37,588
I have the number of his regiment.

1371
01:27:37,588 --> 01:27:38,793
He would be easy to find.

1372
01:27:38,793 --> 01:27:40,164
Your majesty has couriers.

1373
01:27:40,382 --> 01:27:43,857
He needs his shawl, this 
warm shawl I'm knitting.

1374
01:27:48,788 --> 01:27:52,940
A shawl to Russia for my 100,000 dead,

1375
01:27:53,395 --> 01:27:54,581
For my frozen granadiers.

1376
01:27:56,745 --> 01:28:00,020
A gray, warm shawl for my Grand Army.

1377
01:28:02,174 --> 01:28:03,078
Go to bed, dearest.

1378
01:28:27,571 --> 01:28:30,393
Do you know who met with the Czar
before the battle of Moscow?

1379
01:28:32,655 --> 01:28:34,434
Do you know who 
advised him to burn the city

1380
01:28:34,434 --> 01:28:36,014
so that my troops could not winter there?

1381
01:28:37,243 --> 01:28:38,233
Do you know who suggested that

1382
01:28:38,443 --> 01:28:40,069
I be taking prisoner during my retreat?

1383
01:28:41,067 --> 01:28:43,891
Yes, I'm sure I know. My husband.

1384
01:28:44,388 --> 01:28:45,418
Yes, your husband.

1385
01:28:47,434 --> 01:28:49,182
Your husband, I want 
you to write him a letter.

1386
01:28:51,191 --> 01:28:52,926
A personal letter, inmediately.

1387
01:28:55,439 --> 01:28:56,383
Perhaps if it comes from you...

1388
01:28:56,636 --> 01:28:59,041
he might remember that he 
once was a frenchman.

1389
01:29:00,769 --> 01:29:02,285
I want you to tell him that
 I have returned to Paris

1390
01:29:02,562 --> 01:29:03,981
to prepare the final defeat of my enemies.

1391
01:29:05,573 --> 01:29:06,652
Tell him that I offer him an alliance.

1392
01:29:08,286 --> 01:29:11,281
And tell him that I would like Marshal
Bernadotte to march by my side once again.

1393
01:29:13,030 --> 01:29:14,403
And that is why you came to see me.

1394
01:29:16,866 --> 01:29:17,521
Yes.

1395
01:29:21,142 --> 01:29:22,067
and of course I was...

1396
01:29:24,295 --> 01:29:26,351
cold and tired and alone.

1397
01:30:10,517 --> 01:30:12,329
"Jean-Baptoiste has answered the letter...

1398
01:30:13,652 --> 01:30:16,697
and his answer is he will 
march against Napoleon...

1399
01:30:17,146 --> 01:30:18,164
not with him."

1400
01:30:24,182 --> 01:30:25,276
"Napoleon is defeated...

1401
01:30:26,152 --> 01:30:28,348
and Jean had led one 
of the armies which fought him."

1402
01:30:31,018 --> 01:30:32,808
"The allied troops 
are about to enter Paris."

1403
01:30:36,012 --> 01:30:37,664
"How I hope Jean is with them."

1404
01:30:58,428 --> 01:30:59,453
Oh, Jean.

1405
01:31:22,638 --> 01:31:24,773
I read that you might seek a divorce...

1406
01:31:27,066 --> 01:31:29,653
In order to marry a Russian Grand Duchess.

1407
01:31:31,831 --> 01:31:35,770
To strenghten the alliance 
between Russia and Sweden.

1408
01:31:36,678 --> 01:31:38,267
Don't believe everything you read.

1409
01:31:43,166 --> 01:31:44,615
If you think it would be wise...

1410
01:31:47,645 --> 01:31:49,186
I would make only one condition.

1411
01:31:51,291 --> 01:31:52,680
That I become your mistress.

1412
01:31:55,350 --> 01:31:57,987
It's impossible. Too expensive.

1413
01:31:59,959 --> 01:32:01,790
You'll simply have to remain my wife.

1414
01:32:15,445 --> 01:32:17,391
I killed many frenchmen on
 my way back to this bridge.

1415
01:32:20,874 --> 01:32:23,090
At Leipzig he sent my 
old regiments against me.

1416
01:32:23,622 --> 01:32:24,942
Men I'd fought with as comrades.

1417
01:32:25,862 --> 01:32:27,645
I reviewed them as prisioner of war.

1418
01:32:28,145 --> 01:32:29,846
Don't torture yourself, darling.

1419
01:32:30,994 --> 01:32:32,118
Now I go to face him.

1420
01:32:32,713 --> 01:32:34,071
the last link in the chain.

1421
01:32:35,022 --> 01:32:35,788
I pray...

1422
01:32:39,574 --> 01:32:42,122
Jean, I wanto to come back.

1423
01:32:46,082 --> 01:32:49,550
I never knew how lonely it could be
to be alone, untill you left.

1424
01:32:49,995 --> 01:32:50,733
Soon?

1425
01:32:51,586 --> 01:32:53,489
Very soon.

1426
01:32:54,166 --> 01:32:55,161
Now that we're rid of him.

1427
01:33:02,090 --> 01:33:03,586
Thank you for choosing the Island of Elba.

1428
01:33:04,661 --> 01:33:06,052
It will remind me of my birthplace.

1429
01:33:07,622 --> 01:33:09,746
Vegetation in there is not too 
unlike of that of Corsica.

1430
01:33:16,754 --> 01:33:17,047
Well.

1431
01:33:19,182 --> 01:33:20,757
Well, gentlemen I'm ready for exile.

1432
01:33:25,410 --> 01:33:26,343
Bernadotte.

1433
01:33:37,858 --> 01:33:40,168
I have nothing in common 
with those other friends of yours.

1434
01:33:41,882 --> 01:33:43,755
But you, a man who rose from the ranks...

1435
01:33:45,188 --> 01:33:47,597
A soldier whose loyalty I've always cherished.

1436
01:33:50,354 --> 01:33:52,833
Your deployment at Leipzig 
against me was brilliant.

1437
01:33:54,766 --> 01:33:56,129
The tactics of a genius.

1438
01:33:57,593 --> 01:34:00,465
That is true. I learned them from you.

1439
01:34:02,100 --> 01:34:03,524
French standard's in the dirt.

1440
01:34:11,209 --> 01:34:12,415
Tell me Bernadotte.

1441
01:34:14,330 --> 01:34:15,763
Did you enjoy your triumph?

1442
01:34:17,637 --> 01:34:18,621
How did you feel?

1443
01:34:19,882 --> 01:34:20,913
In despair.

1444
01:34:21,962 --> 01:34:23,243
Despair.

1445
01:34:25,281 --> 01:34:29,992
Well, that at least, is becoming to the most
illustrious traitor France has ever known.

1446
01:34:32,706 --> 01:34:34,672
History will determine which of us was the traitor.

1447
01:34:36,014 --> 01:34:37,791
But even if it affords you any satisfaction...

1448
01:34:38,914 --> 01:34:40,943
know that when I leave 
your sight, I leave France.

1449
01:34:42,316 --> 01:34:44,220
I will never be back.

1450
01:34:53,330 --> 01:34:55,845
There is the difference. I will be back.

1451
01:35:01,024 --> 01:35:02,354
"He has escape from Elba..."

1452
01:35:03,563 --> 01:35:04,609
"It will be more war."

1453
01:35:05,860 --> 01:35:07,590
"How will I ever get back to Sweden?"

1454
01:35:10,614 --> 01:35:12,206
"There has been a battle at Waterloo."

1455
01:35:13,053 --> 01:35:15,484
"And now Napoleaon is 
barricade at Malmaison."

1456
01:35:15,876 --> 01:35:17,197
"And want to fight to the death."

1457
01:35:17,561 --> 01:35:18,790
"At the gates of Paris."

1458
01:35:19,589 --> 01:35:21,600
"There will be more killings, more blood."

1459
01:35:22,876 --> 01:35:24,560
"Napoleon must be stopped."

1460
01:35:24,923 --> 01:35:28,085
"Jean said it a long ago, 
someone must stop him."

1461
01:35:28,555 --> 01:35:29,664
"Somewhere."

1462
01:35:31,011 --> 01:35:33,522
His own battalions 
protect him at Malmaison.

1463
01:35:34,346 --> 01:35:35,855
Their bayonets are drawn.

1464
01:35:36,462 --> 01:35:38,696
If we try to cease him, more men will die.

1465
01:35:41,866 --> 01:35:44,551
Unless he is turn over
to the Allied Command tonight.

1466
01:35:45,247 --> 01:35:47,040
We cannot save Paris from destruction.

1467
01:35:48,168 --> 01:35:50,118
He is stubborn and bitter, Madam.

1468
01:35:51,082 --> 01:35:53,430
But you, you have known him well.

1469
01:35:54,172 --> 01:35:55,761
He's always seemed to...

1470
01:35:57,353 --> 01:35:58,882
perhaps a woman...

1471
01:36:50,010 --> 01:36:50,815
Desiree.

1472
01:36:51,318 --> 01:36:52,841
Her Royal Highnees 
wishes to see the Emperor.

1473
01:36:53,580 --> 01:36:54,324
Oh, no...

1474
01:36:55,144 --> 01:36:56,447
Oh, just let me...

1475
01:36:57,476 --> 01:36:59,114
Desiree, he won't see you.

1476
01:37:46,760 --> 01:37:47,853
Why, Desiree...

1477
01:37:48,601 --> 01:37:49,955
I'm sorry if I startled you.

1478
01:37:53,073 --> 01:37:55,558
Well. I'm not accustomed 
to having visitors here recently.

1479
01:37:58,182 --> 01:38:00,563
But then, you and I, always 
met, rather unexpectedly.

1480
01:38:01,925 --> 01:38:03,017
Won't you please sit down?

1481
01:38:13,820 --> 01:38:17,222
You know, I once asked you to walk in
this garden with me, and you refused.

1482
01:38:17,887 --> 01:38:20,175
Yes, I was afraid of you.

1483
01:38:21,394 --> 01:38:22,747
Well, you had reason to be.

1484
01:38:26,634 --> 01:38:31,035
You know Desiree, that hat doesn't
suit you at all.not at all.

1485
01:38:31,283 --> 01:38:32,231
May I remove it?

1486
01:38:33,696 --> 01:38:35,099
I'm here for a purpose.

1487
01:38:35,806 --> 01:38:36,731
I'm sure you are.

1488
01:38:40,768 --> 01:38:42,183
Do you remember when we first met?

1489
01:38:44,422 --> 01:38:46,426
That was the night you told 
me you knew your destiny.

1490
01:38:48,475 --> 01:38:49,827
That was the first night I kissed you.

1491
01:38:52,123 --> 01:38:54,574
You were thinking about my dowry, General.

1492
01:38:57,689 --> 01:38:59,800
No, not entirely.

1493
01:39:01,331 --> 01:39:02,509
Trully not entirely.

1494
01:39:05,896 --> 01:39:09,077
I wonder what my destiny
would have been had I married you.

1495
01:39:11,078 --> 01:39:12,384
The same, I think.

1496
01:39:14,195 --> 01:39:14,944
Perhaps.

1497
01:39:16,086 --> 01:39:18,688
But the history of Empires 
often depends on such trifles.

1498
01:39:20,437 --> 01:39:21,870
So does the history of people.

1499
01:39:23,947 --> 01:39:24,616
Yes.

1500
01:39:26,277 --> 01:39:27,536
Well, you're here on a mission.

1501
01:39:29,832 --> 01:39:31,643
I bring you a message 
from the French Government.

1502
01:39:32,703 --> 01:39:34,309
You were sent to me as a courier?

1503
01:39:36,461 --> 01:39:38,500
Do they think I'll be 
swayed by sentiment?

1504
01:39:38,896 --> 01:39:39,778
What a shabby device!

1505
01:39:39,778 --> 01:39:40,889
I wanted to come.

1506
01:39:41,899 --> 01:39:45,554
Yes,indee you always enjoy taking
the role of the courageous lady.

1507
01:39:45,554 --> 01:39:48,721
I'm not at all corageous, just the opposite.

1508
01:39:49,752 --> 01:39:51,906
But when there is a great deal
at stake I can make the effort.

1509
01:39:53,600 --> 01:39:56,595
I'm to tell you that the allies will
not accept the surrender of Paris.

1510
01:39:56,813 --> 01:39:58,155
Unless you leave France.

1511
01:39:59,112 --> 01:40:01,681
If you do not give yourself up today,
the city will be destroyed.

1512
01:40:02,163 --> 01:40:03,740
There's nothing you will let that message

1513
01:40:03,740 --> 01:40:05,911
to consent before you may 
take it back with the same answer.

1514
01:40:06,236 --> 01:40:08,327
I can still mobilize 100,000...

1515
01:40:08,644 --> 01:40:10,245
And how many of them will die?

1516
01:40:11,322 --> 01:40:13,707
How many more men would lie
in they grave because of you?

1517
01:40:14,581 --> 01:40:16,532
How many more french mothers will hate you?

1518
01:40:17,327 --> 01:40:20,704
How many more children would grow up cursing
your name because they have no fathers?

1519
01:40:22,898 --> 01:40:25,862
I've to shed blood but only where it 
was indicated.

1520
01:40:27,140 --> 01:40:29,401
What indicates it to you now?

1521
01:40:29,698 --> 01:40:30,623
Your destiny?

1522
01:40:53,224 --> 01:40:55,472
I judge my conduct by my conscience.

1523
01:40:56,553 --> 01:40:58,138
And my conscience is not troubled.

1524
01:41:00,882 --> 01:41:03,675
Day by day,I, too, gave my life for my country.

1525
01:41:10,593 --> 01:41:14,286
And yet, my mother did not 
wish me to become emperor.

1526
01:41:16,083 --> 01:41:18,685
She did not even attend my coronation.

1527
01:41:20,743 --> 01:41:24,174
I made Caroline's husband a 
marshall and he joined my enemies.

1528
01:41:24,831 --> 01:41:27,533
I made Bernadotte a marshall
and he fought me in the fields.

1529
01:41:33,461 --> 01:41:34,533
I made war...

1530
01:41:36,111 --> 01:41:37,777
in order to secure peace...

1531
01:41:40,119 --> 01:41:42,604
nor for a year, but for a dozen centuries...

1532
01:41:44,894 --> 01:41:47,075
I dreamed of a United States of Europe.

1533
01:41:49,964 --> 01:41:52,378
Frenchmen,Italians, Germans, Poles, Russians,...

1534
01:41:52,711 --> 01:41:54,066
And all the others...

1535
01:41:55,376 --> 01:41:57,996
One law, one conaige, one people.

1536
01:42:01,211 --> 01:42:02,882
Was that so rush a dream?

1537
01:42:07,312 --> 01:42:08,291
No.

1538
01:42:10,133 --> 01:42:11,647
Only the way you dreamed.

1539
01:42:17,199 --> 01:42:18,305
And now,

1540
01:42:19,917 --> 01:42:21,852
I'm to let myself be taken to that

1541
01:42:22,162 --> 01:42:25,888
godforsaken rock in the ocean- Saint Helena.

1542
01:42:28,821 --> 01:42:32,347
I returned from Elba but
I will never return from Saint Helena.

1543
01:42:34,826 --> 01:42:36,236
Is this what you ask?

1544
01:42:37,639 --> 01:42:39,179
It is what France ask.

1545
01:43:00,583 --> 01:43:04,183
It is customary to handle one's sword
to the officer taken one prisioner.

1546
01:43:04,919 --> 01:43:06,739
Bernadotte will explain it to you.

1547
01:43:09,535 --> 01:43:11,951
At this moment, I surrender to the allies.

1548
01:43:18,705 --> 01:43:20,520
Please don't hold it like un umbrella.

1549
01:43:26,660 --> 01:43:28,493
Good-bye Napoleone...

1550
01:43:35,351 --> 01:43:37,783
No one has called me that for a very long time.

1551
01:43:41,591 --> 01:43:44,475
Tell me Desiree, when did you begin
to fall out of love with me?

1552
01:43:46,738 --> 01:43:47,676
I don't know.

1553
01:43:49,172 --> 01:43:50,622
Somewhere along the way.

1554
01:43:54,621 --> 01:43:57,398
Strange our paths, your 
and mine, and Bernadotte's.

1555
01:44:01,748 --> 01:44:03,743
You will go to Sweden and become a Queen.

1556
01:44:07,815 --> 01:44:09,737
The two must oustanding men of our time...

1557
01:44:09,952 --> 01:44:11,176
have been in love with you.

1558
01:44:12,122 --> 01:44:13,198
And you're no real beauty.

1559
01:44:13,198 --> 01:44:14,757
But you have a way with you.

1560
01:44:17,475 --> 01:44:19,830
Go and tell my brothers 
to prepare for my departure.

1561
01:44:19,830 --> 01:44:21,372
I want to be alone for a while.

1562
01:44:30,470 --> 01:44:31,281
Desiree...

1563
01:44:33,073 --> 01:44:34,093
Our engagement...

1564
01:44:37,614 --> 01:44:39,381
it wasn't only the dowry...

1565
01:44:44,073 --> 01:44:45,678
Go along now, before I repent.

1566
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000
Go along now, before I repent.
