1
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:30,880
(MAN WHISPEКS) Stand by, fIies.
2
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,680
MAN 2: Stand by, flies.
3
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,120
MAN 3: Stand by, flies.
4
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:41,760
And cue.
5
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,520
Cue!
Cue!
6
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:11,680
MAN: lt is the cause,
it is the cause, my soul.
7
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:16,120
Let me not name it to you,
you chaste stars!
8
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,240
lt is the cause.
9
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,360
Yet l'll not shed her blood,
10
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,680
nor scar that whiter skin of hers
than snow,
11
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,480
and smooth as monumental alabaster.
12
00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:32,040
Yet she must die...
(TALKS)
13
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,440
..else she'll...
Shh!
14
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,800
..betray more men.
15
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,320
Рut out the light,
16
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,960
and then put out the light.
17
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,080
lf l quench thee, thou flaming minister,
18
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,720
l can again thy former light restore
19
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,400
should l repent me.
20
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,440
But once put out thy light,
21
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,320
thou cunning'st pattern
22
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,320
of excelling nature.
23
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,560
l know not where
is that Рromethean heat
24
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,520
that can thy light relume.
25
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,400
She wakes.
26
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,160
Who`s there?
27
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,040
Othello?
28
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,200
Ay, Desdemona.
Will you come to bed, my lord?
29
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:26,280
Have you pray'd tonight, Desdemona?
Ay, my lord.
30
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,560
lf you bethink yourself of any crime
31
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,920
unreconcil'd as yet to heaven and grace,
32
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,040
solicit for it straight.
33
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:37,920
Alas, my lord!
34
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,440
What do you mean by that?
35
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,200
Well, do it, and be brief. l will walk by.
36
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,120
l would not kill thy unprepared spirit.
37
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,160
No, heavens forfend!
38
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,600
l would not kill thy soul.
39
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,240
Talk you of killing?
40
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,560
Ay, l do.
41
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,200
What`s the matter?
42
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:08,280
Тhat handkerchief
that l so lov'd and gave thee.
43
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,640
Тhou gav'st to Cassio.
44
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,640
No, by my life and soul!
45
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,560
Send for the man and ask him.
46
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,200
Down, strumpet!
47
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,240
Kill me tomorrow; let me live tonight!
48
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,840
Nay, if you strive...
49
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,360
But half an hour!
Being done, there is no pause.
50
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,280
But while I say one prayer!
51
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,440
lt is too late!
52
00:04:42,840 --> 00:04:46,000
Oh, my good lord...
Bravo! Bravo!
53
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,920
Bravo!
54
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,160
Oh, my good lord, yonder`s...
55
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:55,680
Bravo!
56
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:57,520
Bravo, Mr Kynaston!
57
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,720
..foul murders done!
58
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:02,640
Bravo!
Well done, Mr Kynaston!
59
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,200
Bravo!
60
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,600
(AUDIENCE CHANTS)
Kynaston! Kynaston!
61
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,240
Oh, my good lord,
yonder`s foul murders done.
62
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:17,920
(APPLAUSE)
63
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,640
lt's the same every bloody show!
64
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,600
It`s not working.
What do you mean not working?
65
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,560
l'm trying to get through to the end.
Тhey're shouting, ``Kynaston! Kynaston!``
66
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,880
We haven't finished the show
for three bloody weeks.
67
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,320
Fucking Ned Kynaston!
Not again, Dickie!
68
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,080
It`s my scene his fans ruin.
69
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,760
My entrance! My lines!
70
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,000
Emilia dies too, you know.
71
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,920
Dear boy, l had no idea.
That does it.
72
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,520
I serve my notice, Mr Betterton. I quit!
MAN: Mr Kynaston!
73
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,560
Mr K! Mr K, you were briIIiant!
74
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,280
Such eyes, such hair,
such Iips and voice to thriII.
75
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,880
SureIy you were the most beautifuI
woman in the house.
76
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,680
See, Рepys likes it.
I`m talking about my death scene.
77
00:05:54,840 --> 00:05:56,760
Something`s eluding me.
A gesture` a tone.
78
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,000
You know what, Tommy?
l`m dying too soon.
79
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,720
Тhere's an actor for you. My death scene
doesn't go on long enough.
80
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,760
Grasp the fact, Mr Kynaston.
The performance is a grand success.
81
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,600
What l don't grasp is this.
Тhe King comes to the show last week...
82
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,640
This is OtheIIo?
Тhis is Othello.
83
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,960
And he says, the King says,
``Bravo, Betterton.
84
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,480
``Wonderful show.
Lots of thrills and chills.
85
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,880
``We're coming again, Saturday next.
One question, though.
86
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,840
``Could you make it cheerier?``
87
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,480
``Cheerier?`` says l. ``Yes,`` he said.
``Just make it a little bit more jolly.``
88
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,280
So l say,
89
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,080
``Your Majesty, Mr Shakespeare ends
his play with Desdemona strangled,
90
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,880
``Emilia stabbed,
and Othello disembowelling himself.
91
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,120
``Do you suggest we do away
with all that?``
92
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,840
``Oh, no,`` he says, ``kill 'em all.
Just make it jollier.``
93
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,880
What none of you glean
94
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,760
is that the King is expressing
a particularly salient view of the stage.
95
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,920
Ah, Your Grace, what salient view
of the stage would that be?
96
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,920
He wants surprises.
97
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,880
The King`s been away.
The theatre`s been closed for 1 8 years.
98
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,560
Now he`s back, the theatres are open,
what does he find?
99
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,600
The same old things.
100
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,440
Poetry, he approves.
101
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,040
Ideas, he approves.
Two Iadies to see Mr Kynaston.
102
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,760
Death, tragedy, comedy, yes.
But surprise him.
103
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,960
KYNASTON: What about sex,
vis-a-vis the stage?
104
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,240
You claim the King approves of love, the
idea. What about sex, the expression?
105
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,040
Poetry can express sex.
106
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,520
KYNASTON: So can sex.
107
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,440
Mr Kynaston, if you insist
on something more graphic, show a tit.
108
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,160
The King won`t complain.
How would you suggest I do that?
109
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,400
Surprise me.
110
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,320
Excuse me, two gentIeIadies
want to come backstage.
111
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,360
Тwo of them? Excellent.
112
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,360
They wish to be received
by Mr Kynaston.
113
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,480
Five minutes. Then bring them back.
114
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,560
Why five minutes?
Got to put my visage back on.
115
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,440
They want the illusion,
not some green room hermaphrodite.
116
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,520
This, Tommy, is why I deserve a share.
Oh, no.
117
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,400
What are you two taIking about?
118
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,800
Mr Kynaston's contract is up
and he's putting the screws on me.
119
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,000
I want a share of the company.
I`m as much a draw as you are. More so.
120
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:53,160
Рrove it!
121
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,560
Well, where are your fans?
Where are your ladies?
122
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,760
Oh, alright.
123
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,480
But a share of the company
is out of the question.
124
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:06,120
However, as a gesture of faith to prove
that l am trying to find a way,
125
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,440
in the interim, from this time forth,
126
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:13,320
you can have approval of any actor
who shares the stage with you.
127
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,040
Gentlemen, you are my witnesses.
Noted.
128
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,560
And I`m off to another show.
129
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,000
What show?
130
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,400
Something new.
l`II join you.
131
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,200
Good show, Betterton.
Lovely as always, Mr K.
132
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,760
Your Grace.
GentIemen.
133
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,240
BEТТERТON: Рepys.
134
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:31,800
Mmm!
135
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:36,760
WOMAN: Go away.
136
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,720
MAN: Ah! Mr Betterton!
137
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,400
Um, could I have a word with you
a moment, please?
138
00:08:44,560 --> 00:08:46,800
WOMAN: Oh, look.
139
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,560
Evening, Iadies.
140
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,160
(WOMAN LAUGHS)
141
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,560
I wasn`t good tonight.
142
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,200
You were splendid.
143
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:07,600
Yes.
144
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,080
But I wasn`t good.
145
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,000
Same old things.
146
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,760
Fortunately, they keep
giving us new audiences.
147
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,600
Why does one act?
148
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:29,400
When you act, you can be seen.
149
00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:31,360
Hmm?
150
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,160
Greet your public.
lt always cheers you up.
151
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,200
(DOOК OPENS)
152
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:48,760
Wait.
153
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,720
Wait!
154
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:58,840
Now.
155
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,720
Lady Meresvale and Miss Frayne.
156
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,120
Oh!
157
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,080
You start.
You do it.
158
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,120
Oh, you do it. I`ll die!
159
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,000
Mr Kynaston, we saw
the performance this evening.
160
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,920
We`re such fans, I can`t teII you.
161
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,840
She`s seen you six times. She has.
162
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,600
Juliet and Ophelia.
And the one with no hands.
163
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,960
Mr Kynaston, I am a great fan.
164
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,560
And I was wondering...
165
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,520
WeII...wouId you be wiIIing to ride
with us through St James`s tonight?
166
00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:31,520
It wouId be such an honour to have you.
167
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:33,440
Please, please, please!
PIease, pIease!
168
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,000
If you give me half an hour
to remove my face and clothes...
169
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:37,800
BOTH: Oh, no, don`t, please!
170
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,920
Mr Kynaston, we`d Iike you
to Ieave your appearance as is.
171
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,920
He said yes!
172
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,320
This is so good! (LAUGHS)
173
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,160
Mr Kynaston, if l may,
174
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,560
would you be able to make me
an advance on salary?
175
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,280
An advance? That`s unlike you.
Just till the end of the week.
176
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,320
How much?
Six.
177
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,560
Тhank you.
Will you be needing me later?
178
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,360
Oh, yes. Hopeless without.

How long do you think
you'll be with them?
180
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,920
Three hours, say?
Yes, l'll be here.

Is he coming?
183
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,600
Do hurry up, Mr Kynaston, please!
184
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,600

00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,280

You Iook different.
189
00:11:44,560 --> 00:11:47,000
Yes, l'm not really black.
190
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:21,760
Where were you?
191
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,720
Thought you`d abandoned us.
l couldn't get away.
192
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,040
Did you bring it?
She`d better had.
193
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,320
Mr Cockerell.
194
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,080
If you expect to perform,
I expect my guarantee.
195
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,240
It`s my risk, you know.
196
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,280
It`s iIIegaI to have these on stage.
197

(COUGHING)
198
00:12:53,960 --> 00:13:01,200
Both of us were rather wondering
if you were...reaIIy...
199
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,080
..weII, a gentIeman.
200
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,480
For, you see, my father`s a wigmaker.
201
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,560
He says you`re much too beautifuI
to be a gentIeman.
202
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,120
He says you must be a woman.
203
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,000
And my mother`s good friend,
the Earl of Lauderdale, says,
204
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:24,000
if you`re a man, you don`t
have a gentleman`s thingy.
205
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,840
He says you`re like those
Italian singers, the whatsits?
206
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:27,840
Castrati.
207
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:32,440
The Earl says they cut off
your castrati at birth.
208
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:33,800
Then you become a woman.
209
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,840
I take it the Earl of Lauderdale
is not a surgeon?
210
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,200
No, he`s an earl.
211
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,280
Well...
212
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,600
How then may we prove to both your
father and your mother`s special friend...
213
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,800
..that I do indeed have a thingy?
214

We`d have to...

00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,000
We`d have to touch it.
219
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,200

220
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,360
What?
221
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,720

Whatever it is.

Five pounds indeed.

350
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,680
(SNARLS)
Oh! Damn!
351
00:23:40,120 --> 00:23:41,280
Milady.
352
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,280
Don`t ever do that again!
353
00:23:44,360 --> 00:23:45,880
Oh, my God!
354
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,480
What are you doing here?
355
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,200
Тhought l'd surprise you.
356
00:23:52,360 --> 00:23:53,720
Oh! (LAUGHS)
357
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,120
Where've you been?
I was stranded in St James`s Park.
358
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,920
A frilly fop with a hard-on thought
I was a whore on the make.
359
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:02,920
Тhis is why l prefer Hyde Рark.
360
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,400
Тhere's so much less
of that sort of thing.
361
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,480
So, what happened?
362
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:14,000
Once he found my cock, off he went.
363
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,120
lt wasn't the case with me.
364
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,520
Let me show you something.
365
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:31,680
Here.
366
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,360
Read.
367
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,280
``I come unknown to any of the rest
to tell you news.
368
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,040
``I saw the lady drest.
369
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,760
``The woman plays today...
370
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,360
``The woman plays...`` The woman?
371
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,400
What? Hm?
372
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,960
An actress.
373
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:53,240
A what?
374
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:54,760
An actress.
375
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,320
(LAUGHS)
At Cockerell's Тavern.
376
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,160
Тhe Cockpit put up a little stage.
377
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,080
Very tatty, but still.
378
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,200
(LAUGHS) My, my, it`s a joke.
379
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:06,560
It`s a fake. Jimmy Noakes...
l know Jimmy Noakes.
380
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,680
And it was not Jimmy Noakes.
lt was not any man.
381
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:09,960
lt was a girl.
382
00:25:10,120 --> 00:25:14,120
But it`s illegal.
One did think as much.
383
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,680
Wha...
384
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,560
A woman playing a woman.
What`s the trick in that?
385
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,200
What was the play?
386
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,000
No!
387
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,240
lf you're wondering,
she did not play the Moor.
388
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,880
How was she?
What?
389
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,120
Oh, you mean the acting?
l never noticed the acting.
390
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,160
Did you go round after?
391
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,200
Oh, too crowded. Рepys went.
392
00:25:44,360 --> 00:25:46,080
lf two mice were fucking in a nutshell,
393
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,440
he'd find room to squeeze in
and write it down.
394
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,400
What was her name? The ``actress``?
395
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,920
Er, Mrs Margaret Hughes.
Margaret Hughes.
396
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,320
Тhe word is, she's going to be
at the Рalace tomorrow night.
397
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,000
The Palace?
398
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:00,960
Oh.
399
00:26:01,120 --> 00:26:03,000
Are you...you invited?
400
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,160

l'm always invited.
401
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:06,640
Are you going?
402
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,640
l might drop by.
Take me there.
403
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,720
You want to go to the Рalace?
Yes.
404
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,520
With me?
Yes.
405
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,000
You'll go as an acquaintance
who behaves himself.
406
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,080
And if you try to grow your part,
you'll find the role's been cut.
407
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,240
Agreed.
408
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,280
Right, then. Oh, Ned...
409
00:26:33,120 --> 00:26:35,120
Рut this on, will you?
410
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,720
l like to see a golden flow
as l die in you.
411
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,600
Would you ask your lady whores
to wear a wig to bed?
412
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,640
lf it made them more a woman.

Such mighty, mighty charms?

Bravo! Bravo!

WeII done!

(DOG BARKS)
424
00:28:23,120 --> 00:28:24,800
Ha, ha!
425
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:29,440
His Grace, the Duke of Buckingham,
and Mr Edward Kynaston!
426
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:30,920
George, you`re Iate!
427
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,600
Your Majesty.
428
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:38,240
I thought you`d skipped us.
Mwah, mwah. And Kynaston?
429
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,560
I know you. You`re...
The actor.
430
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,960
Oh, yes, you were in...
`Othello`, sir.
431
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:44,920
This Thursday last at Mr Betterton`s.
432
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,760
Were you? Not Iago, I hope.
I didn`t Iike him.
433
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,360
I played Desdemona.
434
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,800
Ah! That Kynaston.
435
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:54,480
Late wife of the murderous Moor.
436
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,240
Went to see the show Iast week.
437
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,000
The curtain was Iate.
I said, ``What`s the matter?``
438
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,920
They said, ``Your Majesty,
Desdemona is stiII shaving.``
439
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:03,960
(ALL LAUGH)
440
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,160
You paint a blush upon me, sir.
441
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,320
Do you know Miss Gwynn,
my pretty, witty NeII?
442
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,600
Mr Kynaston, I am a great admirer.
443
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,320
Oh!
444
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,600
NeII is the most ardent theatregoer
in London.
445
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:16,960
I used to be an orange girl.
446
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,040
I worked the stalls before,
during and after every performance.
447
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,960
Oranges! Oranges!
448
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,560
Two pence a pair!
Yes, exactIy.
449
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:31,360
Kynaston, about the `OtheIIo`.
Saw it Iast week. Good show.
450
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,880
But it needs some changes.
You see, it couId be a bit...
451
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:35,960
Jollier?
That`s what I said.
452
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:37,280
Yes, what we want are...
453
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,240
Surprises?
ExactIy.
454
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,160
But we don`t want to know
they`re coming.
455
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,160
MAN: Mr Samuel Рepys!
456
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,320
And Mrs Margaret Hughes!
457
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,720
Your Majesty.
Pepys, you brought a guest.
458
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,440
Mrs Hughes, Miss Gwynn.
459
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,680
I`d take your hand but my tit`d fall out.
460
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,360
And Mr Kynaston.
(GASРS)
461
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,360
Oh, are you overcome? Oh, dear.
462
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,920
Are you alright, Mrs Hughes?
Yes.
463
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,080
Sir Charles Sedley.
464
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,600
SedIey, I think you know everyone here.
465
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,240
Except for Mrs Hughes
and Mr Kynaston.
466
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,680
Kynaston...
467
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,040
It feels I`ve had the honour already.
468
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,800
Or you`ve already had
the honour of feeling it.
469
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,160
Obviously, I`m behind in my drinking.
470
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,360
Shall we go in for dinner?
Oh, we`re deepIy priviIeged.
471
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,160
Lady Jane BeIIamy, foIIow me.
472
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,520
Allow me, Mrs Hughes.
473
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,080
l can explain everything.
Why? Are you a philosopher?
474
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:33,080
You, Pepys, the Duke, this is all some
great joke the three of you are playing.
475
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,000
Mr Kynaston, l had no idea...
476
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,200
Mrs Hughes, will you sit next to me?
477
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,640
Don't make a scene.
478
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,880
George, do you know
Lady Jane BeIIamy?
479
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,600
No, but l certainly hope to.
480
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:53,680
Tell me about your parentage,
Miss Gwynn.
481
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:55,880
My mum was a whore,
my father in the navy.
482
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,920
I see.
That`s why I don`t ever do sailors.
483
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,640
l'm sorry l missed your performance
tonight, Miss Gwynn.
484
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:04,440
Will you do it again?
No.
485
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:08,760
And all that for a one-off.
Work, work, work, and it`s over in a pop.
486
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,320
Like Charlie.
What` my dear?
487
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:17,120
Miss Gwynn, I remind you, you are
speaking of the Father of his People.
488
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,080
Well...a lot of `em.
489
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,880
Mrs Hughes, have you seen
Mr Kynaston perform?
490
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,120
He`s doing Desdemona in `OtheIIo` now.
491
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,040
You`ve seen it, George?
Yes. l never tire of `Othello'.
492
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,960
Truth be told, sir,
he never tires of Desdemona.
493
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:33,240
(CHUCKLES)
494
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:38,240
Kynaston, isn`t there someone eIse
who does Desdemona?
495
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,640
Can`t think of his name now.
MAN: James Noakes.
496
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,600
Yes, good actor Noakes.
497
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,240
Not quite his part, though.
Doesn`t have your beauty.
498
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,760
(CHUCKLES)
No, Kynaston.
499
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,720
Desdemona is yours aIone. Ha, ha!
500
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,320
MARlA: Well, but if l may, sir.
501
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,720
A part doesn't belong to an actor,
an actor belongs to a part.
502
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,840
Don't you agree, sir?
503
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:08,280
Don`t know.
504
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,240
Do you agree, Mr Kynaston?
505
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,000
Oh, well, there have been
other Desdemonas before me, sir.
506
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:16,480
There will be more after.
507
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,400
In fact, the Duke of Buckingham saw
another one in London just last night.
508
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,040
Did you, Your Grace?
509
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,560
George, what performance
does Mr Kynaston refer to?
510
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,440
You showed me the fly bill.
511
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,920
I think I have it. Yes, here it is.
512
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,960
The Cockpit Tavern.
513
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,400
Yes, that was name of the theatre, wasn`
t it, Your Grace?
514
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,160
Well, it wasn't strictly a theatre.
515
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,640
``The woman...plays today,
516
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,240
``Mrs Margaret...``
517
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:50,680
Mrs Hughes.
518
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:52,880
Is this you?
519
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,040
Yes.
520
00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:58,720
You?
521
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,200
A woman?
522
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,920
Performed in a play?
523
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,640
In a public theatre
against the order of the Crown?
524
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,280
As His Grace said, it's not a real theatre.
525
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,320
lt's more a sort of tavern,
and hence, outside...
526
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:20,320
I am the First Minister, Mrs Hughes.
I know what the law...
527
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,360
Mrs Hughes.
528
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,720
This performance of yours,
was it too a one-off?
529
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,880
Well, sir, it certainly was novel.
530
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,120
But we had hoped to
have more chances.
531
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,480
NED: That`s the tricky thing
about novelty.
532
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,720
Do it more than once,
it`s not novel anymore.
533
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,480
MARlA: Тhat may be true, Mr Kynaston.
534
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,320
But in the theatre, l am told, there are
no old shows, just new audiences.
535
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:42,360
Ha!
536
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,200
Are you going to do it again?
She most certainly is not.
537
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:50,560
Sir, I insist you issue a proclamation
closing this Cockpit...
538
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:51,600
But, Charlie!
539
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,400
Sir...
SiIence!
540
00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:01,800
When my father was aIive,
541
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,840
it had Iong been iIIegaI
for a woman to perform in pubIic.
542
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,560
In the PaIace, of course,
it was women gaIore.
543
00:34:09,720 --> 00:34:12,520
Private musicaIes, masques...
544
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,920
No-one gave a damn.
545
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,640
Except...the cIerics.
546
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:22,200
One minister, a Mr Prynne,
547
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:30,200
wrote a pamphIet against aII actresses
as Iewd women and whores.
548
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,880
Now, my mother
549
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:41,320
acted in some of those court masques.
550
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,200
And she feIt Mr Prynne`s diatribe
was directed at her.
551
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:51,520
So, Mr Prynne was tried,
552
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:56,160
convicted and sentenced
to the stocks.
553
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:03,000
Where his feet were burned,
his ears Iopped off
554
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,040
and his tongue cut out.
555
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,520
Yet...in spite of aII this,
556
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,680
Mr Prynne never recanted.
557
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:18,160
Some say his stoicism
in the face of such excess...
558
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,840
..is what fanned the fIames
of the Puritan revoIt.
559
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:28,760
And so, off with my father`s head.
560
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,680
And I to HoIIand for 20 years.
561
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:43,320
I think it might be fun
to see women on the stage.
562
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,040
They have had them in France
for a Iong time now.
563
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:49,240
Yes.
564
00:35:50,240 --> 00:35:54,080
Whenever we`re about
to do something truly horrible,
565
00:35:54,240 --> 00:35:57,200
we always say
the French have been doing it for years.
566
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,960
Hyde, issue a procIamation.
567
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:04,680
Permission to perform is hereby granted.
568
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,320
To Mrs Hughes?
569
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,240
To aII women.
570
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,600
(SOME PEOPLE LAUGH)
571
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:23,600
We wish to see this new `OtheIIo`
at the earIiest possibIe convenience.
572
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:24,880
Say, Saturday.
573
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:26,320
Make note, Hyde.
574
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,960
Saturday, `Othello`. The other one.
575
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:34,600
So, Kynaston,
wiII you see Mrs Hughes perform?
576
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:37,440
Yes, l'd love to know
what you think of the death scene.
577
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,440
Oh, I`m always interested
in how my rivals die.
578
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:42,120
Your Grace?
579
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,960
Well, no. l've had
my fill of Desdemonas.
580
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,680
(CLEARS THROAT)
581
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,280
Shall I escort you home, Mrs Hughes?
582
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,520
Yes.
I`II see Mrs Hughes home.
583
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,160
I suddenIy find myseIf
a devotee of the stage.
584
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,200
Not in an artistic sense, of course.
585
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,440
But as a sort of patron.
586
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,320
l'm off as well.
Kynaston, shall l drop you?
587
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,000
Yes, I need my sleep.
588
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,080
We`re auditioning
new Emilias tomorrow,
589
00:37:07,240 --> 00:37:09,560
then two shows of you know what.
590
00:37:09,720 --> 00:37:11,560
Mrs Hughes, perhaps I`ll see you there?
591
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:13,840
Sir Charles.
592
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,760
``I shall never wear this glove again.``
593
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:26,240
Mrs Hughes.
594
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,640
The Cockpit Tavern is no pIace for
someone of your particuIar attractions.
595
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:34,960
I think you shouId audition
for Mr Betterton`s theatre tomorrow.
596
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,360
l couldn't.
And what about Mr Kynaston?
597
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:40,840
Surprise him.
598
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,080
Morning, Mr Kynaston.
Your picture`s selling well.
599
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,640
Anyone want to buy a rabbit?
600
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,440
Mr Kynaston.
601
00:38:22,240 --> 00:38:23,760
SEDLEY: Mr Betterton.
602
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,000
l wish to discuss with you
the role of Emilia.
603
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,320
Bit over the top for that,
aren`t we, sunshine?
604
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,880
Not me, sir. Not me.
605
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:35,600
l come to speak
on behalf of Mrs Margaret Hughes.
606
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:39,680
Mr Kynaston.
Aha! Mrs Hughes. Settling in, I see.
607
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,040
That dress one of mine?
l made it for myself.
608
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,240
Oh, of course you did.
You`re so good at the needle and pin.
609
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,120
Mr Kynaston, l must apologise...
Oh, no, no.
610
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:53,320
Please. Just a question, as you are
quite obviously going to audition today.
611
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,880
Do you know the Five Positions
of Feminine Subjugation?
612
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:58,640
What?
613
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,360
The Five Positions
of Feminine Subjugation. No?
614
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,840
Or perhaps you`re more acquainted
with the Pose of Tragic Acceptance?
615
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,680
Or the Demeanour of Awe and Terror?
616
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,800
Mr Kynaston...
How about the Supplicant`s Clasp?
617
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:11,360
Or the Attitude of Prostrate...
618
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,200
Funny, you`ve seen me perform them
a thousand times.
619
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,280
(SТAMРS FOOТ) Mr Kynaston!
Now, there`s a feminine gesture.
620
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,000
You seem to have managed
the Stamp of Girlish Petulance.
621
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,320
l just wanted to act.
622
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,520
l just wanted to do what you do.
623
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,000
But, madam, I have worked
half my life to do what I do.
624
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,320
14 boys crammed in a cellar.
625
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,360
Do you know when I was in training
for this profession,
626
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,640
I was not permitted to wear
a woman`s dress for three long years.
627
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,600
I was not permitted to wear a wig
for four, not until I had proved
628
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,560
that I had eliminated
every masculine gesture,
629
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:44,200
every masculine intonation,
from my very being.
630
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,720
What teacher did you learn from?
What cellar was your home?
631
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,760
l had no teacher, nor such a classroom.
632
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,720
But then, l had less need of training.
633
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,440
At any rate, Mr Kynaston,
l thank you for the professional advice.
634
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,840
But l did not come here today
to audition.
635
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:00,880
Oh, come, I saw Sedley downstairs
singing your praises...
636
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,000
What he does is his business.
637
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,720
Sir Charles has taken an interest in me.
638
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,840
Oh, Sir Charles! Sir Charles?
639
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:09,680
Other actors have aristocratic patrons.
640
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:11,680
Whom would you rather
take me in hand?
641
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:13,640
l did not come here to audition.
642
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,600
l only came to the theatre today
to collect my belongings...
643
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:17,760
Well, collect...
644
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,360
But now, sir! Oh, now...
645
00:40:23,720 --> 00:40:26,080
Oh, lest l forget.
646
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,320
Your advance, sir.
647
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,840
You'll be pleased to know
it was your generosity
648
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,880
that bought last night's performance.
649
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:35,920
Рut paid.
650
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:38,120
With interest.
651
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,200
BETTERTON: You want to pay me
to watch an audition?
652
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:43,200
SEDLEY: I do.
653
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,680
This could start a trend.
Who is your protege?
654
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,320
Mr Betterton,
this is Mrs Margaret Hughes.
655
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:52,320
Maria?
656
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,480
Maria?
lt's an off-stage name.
657
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,280
Oh. Oh, wait a minute.
658
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:01,080
So the Hughes that played
at Cockerell`s place last night
659
00:41:01,240 --> 00:41:03,280
was...was...our Maria?
660
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,640
AII of London is taIking about
Mrs Hughes` performance.
661
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,720
And, as you know, the King
has, just this past evening,
662
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,480
reIaxed the Iaws
against women pIaying women.
663
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:12,600
Yes, I heard.
664
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,080
And, as this is your day, Mr Betterton,
to seek out new EmiIias...
665
00:41:16,240 --> 00:41:17,640
Yes, yes, I see.
666
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,960
Ned, just in time! Such drama.
667
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,400
Our very own Maria
is going to take the stage.
668
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,880
Do you have a scene for us,
Maria...uh, Mrs...?
669
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,240
l do, actually.
Well, uh...
670
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,360
What will you be doing for us today?
A soliloquy.
671
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,680
From?
`Othello'.
672
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:36,600
And the role?
673
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:38,720
Desdemona.
674
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,360
Well...
675
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,080
This should be fun.
676
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:47,920
Sir Charles.
677
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,160
Thank you, Mrs Hughes.
678
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,440
What shall l do to win my lord again?
679
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,960
Good friends, go to him,
680
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:19,400
for, by this light of heaven,
l know not how...
681
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:23,800
May l start again?
682
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:25,320
Oh, please.
683
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,360
Тhank you.
684
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,600
What shall l do to win my lord again?
685
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,120
Good friends, go to him,
686
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,880
for, by this light of heaven...
687
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:42,160
..l know not how...
688
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,080
l know not how...
689
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,160
l know not how...
I know not how I lost him.
690
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,880
Yes, of course. Тhank you.
691
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,320
Not at all. I say it every night.
692
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,720

Oh, heavens.
I was going to suggest it myself.

696

Good friends, go to him,
697
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:19,880

l know not how l lost him.

711
00:43:59,960 --> 00:44:01,960

Тhat was it.

Was it? Oh, yes!
714
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:19,840
Yes, yes, of course it was.

And truth be told, their sense of smell.
726
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:49,760
I must confess, Mrs Hughes,
727
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,120
when I heard about your performance,
I was worried.

What would become of me?
729
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,320
And then, you auditioned for us.
730
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:00,040
You have taken a great load
off my mind.
731
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,080

00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:09,960
No, sir, please,
l'm late already for Mr Cockerell's.
734
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:13,720
Dear, dear. Well, good luck with the
show. I`d love to pop in and see it...
735
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,160
Yes, l'd arrange tickets,
but we're sold out.

one of the roles to play?

No, no, not you know who,
that`s you, of course.
743
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,320
But we are looking for an Emilia
and she might just...
744
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:39,160
..splash things up a bit.

What do you mean, you refuse?
748
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,000
I shall not act with her.
749

On what right?
My right, Mr Betterton.

You gave me approval over casting
and I hereby exercise said right.
751

a recently-departed dog was stuffed.
754

They made it dance with Punch
and Judy and that crowd clapped too.

for Mrs Hughes further, indeed...

..if you attempt to audition her
or any other woman ever again,

Mr Kynaston and me for a moment?
865
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:52,560
Certainly.
866
00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:57,720
You know, Mr K, the performance
of yours I always liked best?
867
00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:01,000
As much as I adored
your Desdemona and your Juliet,
868
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,880
I always loved best the ``britches`` parts.
869
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:06,000
Rosalind, for instance.
870
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:07,880
And not just because
of the woman stuff,
871
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,320
but also because of the man sections.
872
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:15,960
Your performance of the man stuff
seemed so right, so true.
873
00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,960
I suppose I felt
it was the most real in the play.
874
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:21,840
You know why the man stuff
seemed so real?
875
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,640
Because I`m pretending.
876
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,960
You see a man through the mirror
of a woman through the mirror of a man.
877
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,440
You take one of those reflecting glasses
away, it doesn`t work.
878
00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:32,720
The man only works because you see
him in contrast to the woman he is.
879
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,640
If you saw him
without the her he lives inside,
880
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:37,840
he wouldn`t seem a man at all.
881
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,360
Yes, you`ve obviously thought
longer on this question than I.
882
00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:58,680
l heard about your...
883
00:55:58,840 --> 00:56:00,680
NED: Yes, yes, I imagined you heard.
884
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:02,800
I imagined you might have
more than heard.
885
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,400
Perhaps you even heard
before it happened.
886
00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:09,360
l do not have your pillow.
887
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:12,240
Well, you could have said that
in front of them.
888
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:14,400
l have taken nothing
that belonged to you!
889
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,960
You wear my clothes, play my parts, you
live my life and you`ve taken nothing?
890
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:19,800
Woman`s perspective.
891
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:22,120
But at least a recognisable one.
That pillow was my own.
892
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:25,160
It was not the theatre`s. It was given
to me some time back, as you know.
893
00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:28,320
Yes, a dresser always knows
a gentleman's secrets.
894
00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,040
Of course, l have my own dresser now.
895
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:33,520
He's a man. He used to be an actor.
896
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:36,000
l don't suppose you'd guess what type?
897
00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:40,800
You know, madam, I am amazed
you have need of an audience!
898
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:44,400
With such self-regard as you display,
what room is left for the public`s love?
899
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:47,080
What do you know of love, sir?
900
00:56:47,240 --> 00:56:52,120
Or loyalty? Or adoration suffered
in deepest silence?
901
00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:59,800
Тhe only love you know, sir,
is what you act on stage.
902
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:10,120
The difference
between man and man...
903
00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:12,120
WiIt thou be gone...
904
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:15,480
It was the nightingale
and not the lark.
905
00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:17,640
That pierc`d the fearfuI hoIIow
of thine ear...
906
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:19,960
Oh, look, it`s Kynaston!
907
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:37,720
BETTERTON: O, you are men of stone.
908
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,080
O, you are men of stone.
909
00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:46,800
`Lear`.
910
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:50,920
How did you guess?
911
00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:54,360
Cordelia. You`re practising the carry.
912
00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:58,400
Light?
913
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:00,360
Lighter than you.
914
00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:02,200
That work in performance?
915
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,360
In performance,
I carry a real woman.
916
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:07,760
A former seamstress from Sheffield
twice my size.
917
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:10,560
So, what do you want?
918
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:13,360
Uh, I want another go
at the death scene.
919
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:16,160
Can`t. The Crown
would close me down if I did.
920
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,920
Tommy...
You cost me the Palace`s support.
921
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,000
You refused to act with women
on the day the King`s mistress,
922
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:26,000
a mistress desirous of a career on stage,
I might add, was watching.
923
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,600
Besides, the company`s full up.
924
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:32,240
You weren`t the only actor
cut loose by the law.
925
00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:34,560
The town`s full of your sort now.
926
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:36,640
Mr Betterton.
927
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,280
Time to see the GoneriIs.
928
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:41,960
Happy days.
929
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:49,480
Tommy, is she...?
930
00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:54,560
Is she good? The Hughes?
931
00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:56,680
As an actress?
932
00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:04,880
She`s a star.
933
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:09,320
She did what she did first.
934
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:12,000
You did what you did last.
935
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:40,360
Good God.
936
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:44,040
You'll poach in that.
Would Your Grace like me to disrobe?
937
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:46,440
Quiet. Тhis isn't the place.
938
00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:48,360
I thought you hated heat and steam.
939
00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:50,880
l'm purifying myself.
940
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:57,240
Why didn`t you come to my rooms
when you heard I`d been attacked?
941
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:01,480
l knew you wouldn't want me
to see what they'd done to you.
942
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:03,360
Why didn`t you write?
943
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:05,280
Ned, l've never been a word type.
944
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:07,240
Letters are dangerous.
945
01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:10,400
Тhey live on
long after their passions have died.
946
01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:12,440
They`re dangerous
only if they`re secret.
947
01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:14,600
l'd call us a secret, wouldn't you?
948
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:17,440
Тhere were beginning to be whispers.
949
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:20,040
Тhose things you said at the Рalace.
l warned you, Ned.
950
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,720
What shall I do to win my lord again?
951
01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:26,800
Don't. l'm getting married.
952
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:28,840
Jane Bellamy.
You met her, l believe?
953
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:31,800
lt's this Saturday. Тhe King's coming.
954
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,480
Dryden's composed a sonnet. Yes.
955
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:36,640
Jane's quite a charming thing, really.
956
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:38,800
Рretty, rich.
957
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:40,640
Surprisingly literate.
958
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:42,360
And a woman.
959
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:46,520
What`s she like in bed?
960
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:49,840
What`s she like...to kiss?
961
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:53,800
Does she wear a golden flow
as you die in her? Or don`t you know?
962
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:55,960
l don't want you!
963
01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,600
Not as you are now.
964
01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:02,720
l...
965
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:10,760
When l did spend time with you,
l...always thought of you as a woman.
966
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:16,600
When we were in bed,
it was always in a bed on stage.
967
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:22,800
l'd think, ``Here l am, in a play,
inside Desdemona.``
968
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:26,600
Cleopatra, poor Ophelia...
969
01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,160
You're none of them now.
970
01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,360
l don't know who you are.
971
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:37,760
l doubt you do.
972
01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:18,880
MAN: Over here!
973
01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:38,200
Kind sir, would point thy dagger at
this comely thicket, my lady...
974
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:42,160
Now, kind sir, would point thy dagger
at this comely thicket, my lady...
975
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:45,000
Madam, beg your pardon,
l'm looking for Miss Nell Gwynn.
976
01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:48,520
You won`t find her here. She`s in the
wings about to make her entrance.
977
01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:53,120
Kind sir, would point thy dagger...
Sir?
978
01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:58,880
Do forgive. We`re about to perform
one of our Palace musicales.
979
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:03,000
Sir, the guests?
980
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,560
You look familiar.
Sir, l am Edward Kynaston.
981
01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:11,120
Kynaston! How in hell
did you get in here?
982
01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:14,560
A former fellow actor is your undercook
and has long been dear a friend to me.
983
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:16,960
Then we`ll have to execute him.
Ohhh.
984
01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:19,320
Joke, joke.
985
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:21,680
Calm down, Kynaston.
986
01:03:21,840 --> 01:03:23,600
What on earth do you want
with Nell, anyway?
987
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:25,280
Nell doesn`t like you very much.
988
01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:28,320
Sir, when she came to Mr Betterton's
theatre, my bile was aimed at another.
989
01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:31,400
l did not even see Miss Gwynn.
I`m sure you can straighten it all out.
990
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,400
But it`s just not important to me.
991
01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:35,760
lt is to me!
992
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:38,160
CharIie, what`s
hoIding things up?
993
01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:47,640
(DOOR OPENS, LAUGHTER)
994
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:56,400
Say what you want.
995
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:08,880
l want to act.
996
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:10,840
Then act.
997
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:13,640
l want to act as l did before.
998
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:15,320
You mean the girls` parts?
lf you will.
999
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:20,440
I won`t. Balance the scales, Kynaston,
give the girls a chance.
1000
01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:24,680
Besides...it`s a sop to the Church.
1001
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:28,040
Priests always preach
about boys playing women.
1002
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,680
They say it leads
to effeminacy and sodomy.
1003
01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:33,480
Well, they`d know, Kynaston,
they`re priests.
1004
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:35,920
Act a man, Kynaston.
1005
01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:37,680
How hard could it be?
1006
01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,960
lt is not a question
of acting a man.
1007
01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:43,680
l can act a man.
1008
01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:46,520
Тhere's no artistry in that.
1009
01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:50,520
Тhere are things that l can be as
a woman that l cannot be as a man.
1010
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:52,640
Such as?
NELL: A star.
1011
01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:56,840
No, no, l think Mr Kynaston
could be a star in any guise.
1012
01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:01,320
lf indeed there is no artistry
in acting a man, then show us.
1013
01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:05,880
Рlay a man for us and perhaps
His Majesty will change his mind
1014
01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:07,600
as to whether you can play a woman.
1015
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:14,520
Yes, perform a soliloquy
that displays all that is bold and strong
1016
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:17,720
and masculine in a man.
1017
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,680
Let`s see you as...
1018
01:05:21,760 --> 01:05:23,600
..Othello.
1019
01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:52,760
It is the cause...
1020
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:59,200
It is the cause, my soul.
1021
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:04,200
Let me not name it to you...
1022
01:06:05,200 --> 01:06:06,600
..you chaste st...
1023
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:11,160
May I start again?
1024
01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:14,200
Oh, yes, yes, by all means.
Thank you.
1025
01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:23,240
It is the cause.
1026
01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:27,360
It is the cause, my soul.
1027
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:31,960
Let me not name it to you,
you chaste stars!
1028
01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,600
It is the cause.
1029
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:36,680
Yet I`ll not shed her blood.
1030
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:42,720
Nor scar that whiter skin of hers
than snow.
1031
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:44,440
Aargh!
1032
01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:50,280
Sorry, may I... Once more?
1033
01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:52,800

The woman.
1211
01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:08,800
And you are?
1212
01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:10,880
The man.
1213
01:21:21,960 --> 01:21:23,640
TeII me something.
Anything!
1214
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:25,600
How do you die?
1215
01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:28,400
What?
As Desdemona.
1216
01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:30,640
How do you die?
1217
01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:33,640
Oh, no, I`m sorry.
1218
01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:35,760
I wanted...
1219
01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:43,720
Your old tutor did you
a great disservice, Mr Kynaston.
1220
01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:48,040
He taught you how to speak
and swoon and toss your head,
1221
01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:51,120
but he never taught you
to suffer like a woman
1222
01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:53,240
or love like a woman.
1223
01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:59,960
He trapped a man in woman's form
and left you there to die!
1224
01:22:02,480 --> 01:22:05,720
l always hated you as Desdemona.
1225
01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:07,240
You never fought!
1226
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:09,800
You just died beautifully!
1227
01:22:13,040 --> 01:22:18,280
No...no woman would die like that,
no matter how much she loved him.
1228
01:22:18,440 --> 01:22:21,120
A woman would fight!
1229
01:22:30,160 --> 01:22:32,360
BETTERTON: I need a Desdemona!
1230
01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:33,360
What?
1231
01:22:33,520 --> 01:22:35,400
``Sheffield`s Gift to the Theatre``
has returned to her mother.
1232
01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:37,040
She`s having a baby!
1233
01:22:38,120 --> 01:22:40,520
A baby?
1234
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:42,760
Well, that didn`t happen
in the old days, did it?
1235
01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:44,720
It`s a catastrophe!
1236
01:22:44,880 --> 01:22:46,880
The Palace is reconsidering
its patronage,
1237
01:22:47,040 --> 01:22:49,760
the King is coming
to see the show tonight
1238
01:22:49,920 --> 01:22:51,760
and I need a Desdemona
by eight o`clock.
1239
01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:53,160
Right, who`s available?
1240
01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:57,320
There is onIy one actress in London
I`m aware of who knows the part,
1241
01:22:57,480 --> 01:23:00,200
and is currentIy between bookings.
1242
01:23:00,360 --> 01:23:01,640
MARlA: l won't do it!
1243
01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:04,480
SEDLEY: But didn`t you hear him?
It`s for the King!
1244
01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:05,880
But l'm no good.
1245
01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:07,560
Well, that never
stopped you before.
1246
01:23:07,720 --> 01:23:09,160
My dear, the King comes tonight
1247
01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:11,240
to decide whether to patronise
my theatre again.
1248
01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:15,840
If we put him off, he`ll know something`s
up! You must play, Mrs Hughes!
1249
01:23:18,720 --> 01:23:21,120
What do you intend
to do about this?
1250
01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:38,800
l can't play Desdemona.
1251
01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:40,880
l never could.
1252
01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:47,280
l don't know how to act.
1253
01:23:53,640 --> 01:23:54,960
Where is he?
1254
01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:57,480
If you couId just take her in hand.
1255
01:23:57,640 --> 01:23:59,640
Teach her some tricks
and turns.
1256
01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:03,200
Most of the pIay she`II get by,
it`s the end that`s bad.
1257
01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:04,600
When she dies.
1258
01:24:05,600 --> 01:24:07,680
She...she`s no good!
1259
01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:09,280
I say this as a friend.
1260
01:24:09,440 --> 01:24:12,640
Mr Kynaston, have you ever seen
Mrs Hughes on the stage?
1261
01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:15,920
I saw her audition, that was enough.
Why? What`s she like?
1262
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:17,120
You.
1263
01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:18,840
She does you.
1264
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:23,160
Every inflection, every bat of the eye,
bits of business, vocal tricks...
1265
01:24:23,320 --> 01:24:26,680
Then she shouldn`t be half-bad.
But it doesn`t work!
1266
01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:31,040
Forgive me.
1267
01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:33,160
I have spoken IoudIy.
1268
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:36,760
Did she send you here?
1269
01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:39,080
No-one knows we`ve come.
1270
01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:45,480
What do you offer me...
1271
01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:48,600
..pretty, witty Nell?
1272
01:24:51,440 --> 01:24:52,440
A friend.
1273
01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:54,360
Friends I`ve had. Give me an audience.
1274
01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:57,960
If that`s what you want,
you must take it with your own hands.
1275
01:24:58,120 --> 01:25:01,800
A man isn`t how he walks
or how he speaks.
1276
01:25:01,960 --> 01:25:03,840
It`s what he does.
1277
01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:12,600
Well?
1278
01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:14,680
What`s your answer?
1279
01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:45,120
GentIemen!
We have procured a tutor!
1280
01:25:45,280 --> 01:25:46,120
Oh!
1281
01:25:46,280 --> 01:25:47,720
Ned.
Tommy.
1282
01:25:47,880 --> 01:25:49,600
Kynaston!
1283
01:25:50,600 --> 01:25:53,240
Some rules of engagement...
First rule, you`re out.
1284
01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:55,920
Betterton!
1285
01:25:56,080 --> 01:25:58,560
No, no, no, no.
Best work in private, Sir Charles.
1286
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:06,920
We shall exeunt, Kynaston,
but mark our history and my property.
1287
01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:09,720
You are assisting my Desdemona.
1288
01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:11,800
Don't try anything funny.
1289
01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:19,400
lf you give her a funny voice
or a funny walk, a squint, l'll notice.
1290
01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:21,800
And l won't like it.
1291
01:26:21,960 --> 01:26:23,960
A critic is born.
1292
01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:27,600
And all because l thought you were
a whore and grabbed your cock!
1293
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:32,760
(LAUGHS)
1294
01:26:32,920 --> 01:26:35,320
Now, is there anything you want?
Some wine, some cheese?
1295
01:26:35,480 --> 01:26:37,640
A share.
Oh, ho, ho!
1296
01:26:37,800 --> 01:26:40,760
Now, I would say, ``What?``
And you will say?
1297
01:26:40,920 --> 01:26:42,160
``A share.``
How much?
1298
01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:44,080
Five.
Thief.
1299
01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:48,440
Shall I fetch her, Mr Kynaston?
Would you be a dear?
1300
01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:14,280
Mr Kynaston.
1301
01:27:23,280 --> 01:27:25,240
Mrs Hughes.
1302
01:27:32,560 --> 01:27:33,880
Let`s get to work, shall we?
1303
01:27:34,040 --> 01:27:35,240
Uh, yes.
1304
01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:38,000
Are you wearing that tonight?
1305
01:27:38,160 --> 01:27:40,400
Yes.
No, you`re not.
1306
01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:42,320
Sir Charles designed this costume
specially.
1307
01:27:42,480 --> 01:27:43,520
It looks it.
1308
01:27:43,680 --> 01:27:45,080
You`ll strip down to your shift.
1309
01:27:45,240 --> 01:27:47,920
Strip?! Look, if you think you can
teach me how to be a woman...
1310
01:27:48,080 --> 01:27:49,560
I`m not teaching you
how to be a woman.
1311
01:27:49,720 --> 01:27:51,040
I`m teaching you how to be Desdemona.
1312
01:27:51,200 --> 01:27:54,400
l don't want to be Desdemona.
l don't want to act ever again.
1313
01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:57,560
No! You claimed the role. Hold onto it
till they pry your fingers from its neck.
1314
01:27:57,720 --> 01:27:59,800
And more than a role,
you hold this theatre in your hands.
1315
01:27:59,960 --> 01:28:01,680
So stand still, dry your eyes and strip!
1316
01:28:01,840 --> 01:28:03,720
Muss your hair before the scene.
1317
01:28:03,880 --> 01:28:06,360
Not like that, that`s puffing it
to make it look attractive.
1318
01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:09,320
No, no, no, no lip paint. White cheeks.
1319
01:28:09,480 --> 01:28:12,240
Pale lips. Blood drains down with sleep,
not up to the face.
1320
01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:17,440
The way Betterton does the last scene,
there are 32 lines, cutting 1 7.
1321
01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:22,320
You`re the woman, I`m the man.
Start on the bed.
1322
01:28:23,480 --> 01:28:25,520
Not like that! That`s like me.
1323
01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:29,040
Is that how you sleep?
1324
01:28:31,080 --> 01:28:33,800
How am l supposed to know how
l sleep? l'm sleeping while l sleep!
1325
01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:35,720
Don`t act with what isn`t there!
1326
01:28:35,880 --> 01:28:39,960
The man`s been a festering boil
for three fucking hours, hasn`t he?
1327
01:28:40,120 --> 01:28:40,960
Yes.
1328
01:28:41,120 --> 01:28:43,920
He`s come up to your bedroom, woke
you up, told you to pray before you die.
1329
01:28:44,080 --> 01:28:46,000
So, what`s the line?
Yes! Тalk you of killing.
1330
01:28:46,160 --> 01:28:47,280
Ay, I do.
1331
01:28:47,440 --> 01:28:50,440
Тhen heaven have mercy on me!
Good girl. Keep going.
1332
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:52,520
Тhey are loves l bear to you. Ow!
1333
01:28:52,680 --> 01:28:54,560
Peace, and be still.
1334
01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:56,200
And I mean that.
1335
01:28:56,360 --> 01:28:59,120
But Othello is advancing on her.
Am I?
1336
01:28:59,280 --> 01:29:00,600
You see me moving?
1337
01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:03,640
You take two steps back on the first line,
then stumble on the last line.
1338
01:29:03,800 --> 01:29:05,640
l don't know if l can remember
the stumble.
1339
01:29:05,800 --> 01:29:07,600
Peace, and be still!
1340
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:10,160
By my life and soul,
send for the man and ask him.
1341
01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:12,360
``Send for the man and ask him.``
1342
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:14,920
That`s easy to say, isn`t it?
``Send for the man and ask him.``
1343
01:29:15,080 --> 01:29:16,720
Cassio`s name gives her the willies.
1344
01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:19,040
But she doesn't say the name Cassio.
Aha!
1345
01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:21,480
l'm lost.
1346
01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,440
If lago was going to poison the Moor`s
mind with a lover for Desdemona,
1347
01:29:24,600 --> 01:29:26,600
he had to pick someone
who made sense.
1348
01:29:26,760 --> 01:29:29,120
It couldn`t be...Jo-Jo the Mute Boy.
1349
01:29:29,280 --> 01:29:33,400
lago picked Cassio because, in truth,
Desdemona does fancy him.
1350
01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:38,280
So, when Othello mentions him,
she must say, ``Yes, call for Cassio.``
1351
01:29:38,440 --> 01:29:40,920
But his name doesn`t come easily.
1352
01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:43,400
But she doesn't say his name.
1353
01:29:44,400 --> 01:29:45,720
Yes.
1354
01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:48,280
This next exchange
of seven lines comes fast.
1355
01:29:48,440 --> 01:29:49,280
Why?
1356
01:29:49,440 --> 01:29:51,880
We want to get to the murder
faster than they expect.
1357
01:29:52,040 --> 01:29:54,520
But how can l say things like
``While l say one prayer`` fast?
1358
01:29:54,680 --> 01:29:57,080
No, you`re not in charge
of this part of the scene, the Moor is.
1359
01:29:57,240 --> 01:29:58,560
The Moor says his lines fast.
1360
01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:00,760
It`s up to you to slap your words in
as fast as you can.
1361
01:30:00,920 --> 01:30:03,560
Go.
Alas, he is betray'd, and l undone.
1362
01:30:03,720 --> 01:30:05,480
Out, strumpet!
Weep`st thou for him to my face?
1363
01:30:05,640 --> 01:30:07,440
O, banish me, my lord, but kill me not!
1364
01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:09,320
Down, strumpet!
Kill me tomorrow!
1365
01:30:09,480 --> 01:30:10,760
Nay, if you strive...
But half an hour!
1366
01:30:10,920 --> 01:30:13,040
Being done, there is no pause.
But while l say one prayer!
1367
01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:14,640
It is too late.
(SCREAMS)
1368
01:30:18,920 --> 01:30:22,280
See what comes out of rehearsal?
1369
01:30:25,320 --> 01:30:29,160
l had planned to scream anyway.
Good for you.
1370
01:30:29,320 --> 01:30:30,920
Тhrow me on the bed, kill me.
1371
01:30:31,080 --> 01:30:32,840
No.
We have to finish this off.
1372
01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:34,960
Save something for the moment.
1373
01:30:35,120 --> 01:30:39,160
Always do something different than you
planned. Good to throw yourself a bit.
1374
01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:41,520
Recall what we`ve done to this point
of the scene.
1375
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:43,360
Then when you die...
1376
01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:47,160
1377
01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:51,240
But how do l know
Mr Betterton will do as you have done?
1378
01:30:51,400 --> 01:30:53,440
You don`t. Because he won`t.
1379
01:31:00,240 --> 01:31:02,800
Right, ready to go?
Yes. I`m playing the Moor.
1380
01:31:03,920 --> 01:31:05,760
I beg your pardon?
Mrs Hughes insists.
1381
01:31:05,920 --> 01:31:07,920
Mrs Hughes?
l do.
1382
01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:09,760
But does he even know the part?
1383
01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:12,880
Yes, he knows it.
Right, now I`ll need bootblack.
1384
01:31:13,040 --> 01:31:15,080
I have bootbIack.
With you?
1385
01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:17,440
A scuff, sir, is a dreadfuI thing.
1386
01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:20,040
Now, out, all of you.
1387
01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:38,200
Mr Kynaston.
1388
01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:40,080
My thanks.
1389
01:31:49,760 --> 01:31:51,480
It`s not a good part, Desdemona.
1390
01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:53,040
Go for Cleopatra.
1391
01:31:53,200 --> 01:31:54,680
Cleopatra?
1392
01:31:54,840 --> 01:31:56,520
She kills herself
with the sting of an asp.
1393
01:31:56,680 --> 01:32:00,720
``Those who do die, do never recover.``
1394
01:32:02,160 --> 01:32:04,080
``I blame you for my death.``
1395
01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:14,440
What's that from?
1396
01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:18,520
See you on stage.
1397
01:32:31,880 --> 01:32:33,840
It is the cause.
1398
01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:40,960
It is the cause, my soul.
1399
01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:48,040
Let me not name it to you,
you chaste stars.
1400
01:32:49,640 --> 01:32:53,360
It is the cause.
1401
01:33:02,120 --> 01:33:04,360
Who's there? Othello?
1402
01:33:04,520 --> 01:33:06,000
Ay, Desdemona.
1403
01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:08,560
Will you come to bed, my lord?
1404
01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:10,640
Have you pray`d tonight,
Desdemona?
1405
01:33:10,800 --> 01:33:12,280
Ay, my lord.
1406
01:33:12,440 --> 01:33:14,280
If you bethink yourself of any crime
1407
01:33:14,440 --> 01:33:17,400
unreconcil`d as yet to heaven and grace,
solicit for it straight.
1408
01:33:17,560 --> 01:33:19,400
Alas, my lord,
what may you mean by that?
1409
01:33:19,560 --> 01:33:21,360
Well, do it, and be brief. I will walk by.
1410
01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:23,720
I would not kill thy unprepared spirit.
1411
01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:26,440
No, heaven forfend!
I would not kill thy soul.
1412
01:33:27,440 --> 01:33:28,720
Тalk you of killing?
1413
01:33:28,880 --> 01:33:30,120
Ay, I do.
1414
01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:32,680
Тhen heaven have mercy on me!
Think on thy sins.
1415
01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:37,240
Тhey are loves l bear to you.
Ay, and for that thou diest.
1416
01:33:40,240 --> 01:33:43,240
Тhat death's unnatural
that kills for loving.
1417
01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:46,760
Alas, why gnaw you
so your nether lip?
1418
01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:50,480
Some bloody passion
shakes your very frame.
1419
01:33:50,640 --> 01:33:52,200
Тhese are portents, but yet l hope,
1420
01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:54,360
l...l hope they do not point on...
1421
01:33:54,520 --> 01:33:56,760
Peace, and be still!
1422
01:34:00,440 --> 01:34:03,120
l will...l will so.
1423
01:34:12,440 --> 01:34:14,920
What's the matter?
1424
01:34:19,200 --> 01:34:21,120
That handkerchief...
1425
01:34:23,680 --> 01:34:25,680
..which I so lov`d and gave thee.
1426
01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:28,040
Thou gav`st to Cassio.
1427
01:34:28,200 --> 01:34:32,360
No, by my life and soul!
Send for Ca...the man and ask him.
1428
01:34:32,520 --> 01:34:34,120
His mouth is stopp`d.
1429
01:34:34,280 --> 01:34:36,520
Honest lago hath ta`en order for`t.
1430
01:34:36,680 --> 01:34:40,240
Alas, he is betray'd, and l undone!
1431
01:34:40,400 --> 01:34:41,240
(GASРS)
1432
01:34:41,400 --> 01:34:46,000
Out, strumpet!
Weep`st thou for him to my face?!
1433
01:34:46,160 --> 01:34:48,560
O, banish me, my lord, but kill me not!
1434
01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:50,320
Down, strumpet!
1435
01:34:50,480 --> 01:34:52,960
Kill me tomorrow, let me live tonight!
1436
01:34:53,120 --> 01:34:55,080
Nay, if you strive...
1437
01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:57,720
But half an hour!
Being done, there is no pause.
1438
01:34:57,880 --> 01:34:59,920
But while l say one prayer!
1439
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:02,760
It is too late.
1440
01:35:02,920 --> 01:35:04,040
No!
1441
01:35:08,920 --> 01:35:11,120
Put out the light!
1442
01:35:13,640 --> 01:35:16,280
Help! Help!
1443
01:35:18,240 --> 01:35:19,240
Help!
1444
01:35:20,760 --> 01:35:21,800
He's killing...
1445
01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:23,400
He's killing me!
1446
01:35:44,040 --> 01:35:45,520
(GROANS)
1447
01:35:48,240 --> 01:35:50,240
What noise is this?
1448
01:35:53,200 --> 01:35:55,160
Not dead?
1449
01:35:56,520 --> 01:35:58,560
Not quite yet dead?
1450
01:36:01,800 --> 01:36:03,960
I that am cruel am yet merciful.
1451
01:36:04,960 --> 01:36:07,160
I will not let thee linger in thy pain.
1452
01:36:10,840 --> 01:36:16,200
So...
1453
01:36:40,840 --> 01:36:43,160
O, my good lord,
yonder`s foul murder...
1454
01:37:01,880 --> 01:37:02,880
(lNHALES)
1455
01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:04,680
Oh!
1456
01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:06,080
MARlA: Falsely...
1457
01:37:07,280 --> 01:37:08,800
..falsely murder'd!
1458
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:12,080
Alas! Alas!
1459
01:37:13,080 --> 01:37:14,160
Alas...
1460
01:37:15,880 --> 01:37:17,680
..what cry is that?
1461
01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:19,800
Sweet mistress, speak!
1462
01:37:21,240 --> 01:37:23,000
Who hath done this deed?
1463
01:37:24,000 --> 01:37:25,640
Nobody.
1464
01:37:26,760 --> 01:37:28,200
l myself.
1465
01:37:30,160 --> 01:37:31,760
Farewell.
1466
01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:35,840
Commend me to my kind lord.
1467
01:37:37,880 --> 01:37:41,000
O, farewell!
1468
01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:59,680
Why, how should she be murder`d?
1469
01:37:59,840 --> 01:38:02,440
Bugger! (GIGGLES)
1470
01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:05,840

Bravo!

Brava!
1485

(APPLAUSE CONTINUES)
1488
01:39:23,360 --> 01:39:25,440
Рlease, we still have one more scene.
1489
01:39:26,960 --> 01:39:29,800
Mrs Hughes! Mr Betterton!
1490
01:39:29,960 --> 01:39:33,000
SureIy that was the finest night
I`ve ever had in the theatre.
1491
01:39:33,160 --> 01:39:34,320
What performances!
1492
01:39:34,480 --> 01:39:37,680

01:39:37,840 --> 01:39:40,840
WOMAN: l do think l did the most
extraordinary performance of my life.

Good show, Betterton! Ho, ho!
Thank you.
1496
01:39:52,720 --> 01:39:54,080
Thrills and chills.
1497
01:39:54,240 --> 01:39:56,840
That new ending - very, very real.
1498
01:39:57,000 --> 01:39:58,240
Almost too much so.
1499
01:39:58,400 --> 01:40:01,360
But restorative somehow. (LAUGHS)
1500
01:40:01,520 --> 01:40:03,280
Well, that`s tragedy for you.
1501
01:40:03,440 --> 01:40:05,880
Awe and terror`
and yet we still go to dinner.

(ALL LAUGH)
1503
01:40:09,440 --> 01:40:12,000
Where are Mrs Hughes
and Mr Kynaston?
1504
01:40:12,160 --> 01:40:14,560
You almost killed me!
1505

NED: I did kill you.
1506
01:40:19,520 --> 01:40:21,120
You just didn`t die.
1507
01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:26,840
Why didn't you finish me off?
1508
01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:32,760
I finally got the death scene right.
1509
01:41:19,840 --> 01:41:20,960
