1
00:00:58,330 --> 00:01:03,866
The death of aunt Ann was a blow that
hit the Forsyte family uncommonly hard.
2
00:01:03,966 --> 00:01:05,731
It was not so much
that she had died suddenly,without warning,
3
00:01:07,354 --> 00:01:10,013
although they did feel it
was unreasonable of her to go without a word.
4
00:01:10,634 --> 00:01:11,971
Unlike Ann, somehow,
to do that...
5
00:01:13,082 --> 00:01:14,102
but that she
had gone at all.
6
00:01:14,302 --> 00:01:16,920
If one Forsyte could let go
her grasp of life,
7
00:01:16,940 --> 00:01:19,814
why then, any of them
might do the same.
8
00:01:20,014 --> 00:01:22,059
It was unnerving.
9
00:01:23,258 --> 00:01:24,200
Uncle Swithin, I'm told,
10
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,832
was so upset by the funeral that
all he could take for dinner
11
00:01:27,032 --> 00:01:30,098
was a partridge and an imperial
pint of champagne.
12
00:01:32,988 --> 00:01:35,968
But on Forsyte 'change,
the living, as subjects for gossip,
13
00:01:36,068 --> 00:01:38,311
take precedence over the dead.
14
00:01:38,807 --> 00:01:41,271
My presence at the funeral caused
a considerable sensation.
15
00:01:41,471 --> 00:01:46,499
My father had deliberately stated, in public,
that affection is more important
16
00:01:46,913 --> 00:01:48,892
than conventional morality
and respectability.
17
00:01:53,784 --> 00:01:56,152
Absorbing too,
although I hadn't yet heard the full story,
18
00:01:56,351 --> 00:01:59,568
were the increasing rumors
about Soames' wife, Irene,
19
00:02:00,579 --> 00:02:02,751
and the young architect,
Philip Bosinney.
20
00:02:05,253 --> 00:02:08,146
Swithin's description of the famous drive
to Robin hill began it all,
21
00:02:09,715 --> 00:02:13,195
but since then those two had
been seen together, alone,
22
00:02:13,395 --> 00:02:15,329
in the most unlikely places.
23
00:02:26,433 --> 00:02:30,968
Jo. Jo, you really think we should go?
24
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,071
Yes, I do.
25
00:02:33,575 --> 00:02:35,487
After all, you and my father
pushed me into the first steps.
26
00:02:36,070 --> 00:02:38,126
So for you to visit him at
Stanhope's gate is...
27
00:02:38,654 --> 00:02:40,085
well, it's simply
the logical development.
28
00:02:40,588 --> 00:02:42,291
But June.
What if june's there?
29
00:02:42,795 --> 00:02:44,923
Her attitude is, quite honestly,
unimportant.
30
00:02:45,434 --> 00:02:46,907
Yes, I suppose so.
31
00:02:47,554 --> 00:02:49,474
Now that she's getting married,
she's going to leave your father anyway.
32
00:02:51,005 --> 00:02:53,541
But Jo, you understand how
she must feel towards me.
33
00:02:54,484 --> 00:02:57,400
After all, I took you away from her mother.
34
00:02:57,725 --> 00:02:58,908
Yes, so you did.
35
00:02:59,897 --> 00:03:02,709
You deprived a Forsyte of her property,
and that's unforgivable.
36
00:03:02,809 --> 00:03:04,309
You see?
She must hate me.
37
00:03:04,596 --> 00:03:06,678
My darling, I was only joking.
38
00:03:06,878 --> 00:03:09,236
Yes, I know you were.
But I worry.
39
00:03:09,613 --> 00:03:11,792
Then you mustn't.
It was all a long time ago.
40
00:03:11,992 --> 00:03:13,031
June's grown up now.
41
00:03:13,231 --> 00:03:16,179
She has her own life to lead.
Yes, of course.
42
00:03:17,822 --> 00:03:19,437
And she did like me once.
43
00:03:20,469 --> 00:03:21,413
Yes, so she did.
44
00:03:22,315 --> 00:03:24,298
If I remember, that's when
I began to like you too.
45
00:03:25,940 --> 00:03:27,377
Off you go.
46
00:03:27,597 --> 00:03:28,781
Do your shopping.
47
00:03:28,981 --> 00:03:30,425
And I'll meet you at my father's at 4:00.
48
00:03:31,768 --> 00:03:34,080
Oh, dear.Very well, then.
Enjoy yourself. I'll see you later.
49
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:38,400
Jo...
50
00:03:42,007 --> 00:03:44,483
That woman, so elegant.
51
00:03:45,310 --> 00:03:46,750
Do you think
she's beautiful?
52
00:03:47,487 --> 00:03:50,006
Yes. Yes, I do.
53
00:03:51,431 --> 00:03:53,493
There's something about her
face. It reminds me of you.
54
00:03:55,052 --> 00:03:57,234
What nonsense, darling.
We couldn't be more unlike.
55
00:03:57,643 --> 00:03:59,028
No, no, the expression.
56
00:03:59,228 --> 00:04:02,482
How you used to look sometimes,
before we became free.
57
00:04:04,650 --> 00:04:05,736
She's waiting.
58
00:04:06,683 --> 00:04:08,810
For whom, do you think?
59
00:04:09,010 --> 00:04:11,969
Her husband or...or her lover?
60
00:04:12,769 --> 00:04:13,525
My god.
61
00:04:14,473 --> 00:04:15,865
Jo, do you
recognize her?
62
00:04:16,415 --> 00:04:17,112
No, but I know him.
63
00:04:17,312 --> 00:04:19,620
My father introduced us after the funeral.
His name is Bosinney.
64
00:04:22,290 --> 00:04:22,842
But it can't be.
65
00:04:24,152 --> 00:04:25,749
Why, that's the man
that June's going to marry.
66
00:04:25,949 --> 00:04:28,438
Yes, my darling.
It is.
67
00:04:29,988 --> 00:04:30,949
But who is she?
68
00:04:31,582 --> 00:04:34,096
I don't know,
but look at them.
69
00:04:35,566 --> 00:04:38,488
I am looking.
They are in love.
70
00:04:40,122 --> 00:04:42,238
I must go, before he recognizes me.
No, wait.
71
00:04:58,335 --> 00:04:59,426
She must be married,
72
00:04:59,626 --> 00:05:02,735
or they wouldn't meet so secretly
and for so short a time.
73
00:05:04,844 --> 00:05:05,868
Poor lovers.
74
00:05:07,460 --> 00:05:09,386
Poor June.
75
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:15,848
Cream and sugar?
76
00:05:16,496 --> 00:05:17,904
No sugar, please.
77
00:05:22,829 --> 00:05:24,157
Thank you, june.
78
00:05:24,893 --> 00:05:27,204
Helene?
- Thank you.
79
00:05:28,403 --> 00:05:30,170
Try one of those macaroons,
won't you?
80
00:05:30,715 --> 00:05:32,153
Cook's rather proud of them.
Oh, no.
81
00:05:32,745 --> 00:05:34,337
Oh, yes, yes, yes.
82
00:05:37,872 --> 00:05:39,096
For grandpapa.
83
00:05:39,895 --> 00:05:41,424
No cream, but I expect
you remember that.
84
00:05:42,408 --> 00:05:44,118
Mm-hm. Never spoil the flavor
of a good tea.
85
00:05:44,718 --> 00:05:46,445
And I agree with you, father,
so long as it is a good tea.
86
00:05:47,029 --> 00:05:48,164
Yes.
87
00:05:48,464 --> 00:05:49,225
Do you like it?
88
00:05:49,425 --> 00:05:51,402
Thank you. It has an excellent flavor..
89
00:05:51,739 --> 00:05:52,857
So it should too.
90
00:05:54,047 --> 00:05:56,357
I resigned from the firm years ago,
but I still get my tea there.
91
00:05:57,532 --> 00:05:58,674
I'll send you around
a case tomorrow.
92
00:05:59,013 --> 00:06:00,360
You're very kind, but...
93
00:06:00,698 --> 00:06:04,181
father, well you see, Helene swears by bullivants.
94
00:06:05,212 --> 00:06:06,830
Bullivants?
95
00:06:07,262 --> 00:06:09,177
They don't know tea from sawdust.
Grandpapa!
96
00:06:09,625 --> 00:06:10,946
I don't care, what's more.
97
00:06:11,126 --> 00:06:13,617
No, my dear, we can't have you
drinking such rubbishy stuff.
98
00:06:15,957 --> 00:06:18,414
You've been painting,I hear.
Yes, as usual.
99
00:06:19,126 --> 00:06:21,217
What sort of price would you get
now for your things?
100
00:06:22,265 --> 00:06:24,184
When I sell one,
what it's worth, I suppose.
101
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,095
Not nearly as much.
All artists are underpaid.All of them.
102
00:06:29,057 --> 00:06:32,118
When I think of the way people,
rich people, treat artists...
103
00:06:32,753 --> 00:06:35,240
well, it's disgraceful.
Come on now,I don't know.
104
00:06:35,479 --> 00:06:37,673
There's a market value for art
same as any other commodity.
105
00:06:38,521 --> 00:06:40,328
Now I'm as interested in art
as the next man,
106
00:06:41,096 --> 00:06:44,915
but it is a luxury,not a necessity like...
107
00:06:45,115 --> 00:06:47,207
like tea, for instance.
108
00:06:47,958 --> 00:06:48,895
Touche.
109
00:06:50,062 --> 00:06:53,780
I still think it's disgraceful.
An artist works and slaves
110
00:06:54,388 --> 00:06:57,219
to create something beautiful,
and nobody cares whether he lives or dies.
111
00:06:58,563 --> 00:07:00,106
Mr. Soames Forsyte.
112
00:07:02,329 --> 00:07:04,345
Excuse me, sir.
I expected you to be alone.
113
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,337
But as you see, I am not.
114
00:07:07,647 --> 00:07:09,464
Perhaps I can call and see you another time.
115
00:07:09,664 --> 00:07:10,358
If you wish.
116
00:07:10,553 --> 00:07:14,338
In the meantime, Helene,
my dear, this is Jo's cousin,
117
00:07:14,538 --> 00:07:16,751
Soames, my brother James' boy.
118
00:07:17,822 --> 00:07:19,068
My daughter-in-law.
119
00:07:19,780 --> 00:07:21,220
How do you do?
120
00:07:21,795 --> 00:07:24,306
Well, cousin Soames...
you don't change much with the years.
121
00:07:24,506 --> 00:07:25,244
If you'll excuse me.
122
00:07:25,444 --> 00:07:27,156
Nonsense, boy. Now you're here.
Sit down.
123
00:07:27,844 --> 00:07:29,066
June, give your cousin
a dish of tea.
124
00:07:29,516 --> 00:07:30,797
Certainly.
Cream and sugar, Soames?
125
00:07:30,997 --> 00:07:32,355
Thank you, but I don't want any tea.
126
00:07:33,105 --> 00:07:35,350
Well then, what do you want?
127
00:07:35,550 --> 00:07:37,193
Nothing.I'd better go.
128
00:07:37,504 --> 00:07:39,910
No, you don't.
You came here wanting something.
129
00:07:40,627 --> 00:07:42,242
It isn't business, or you'd deal
with it through the office.
130
00:07:43,011 --> 00:07:45,875
It's hardly a social call, or you'd sit down
and take your tea like a gentleman.
131
00:07:46,075 --> 00:07:49,343
So, what is it?
- A family matter? Eh?
132
00:07:49,542 --> 00:07:54,367
No. Well, yes.
I suppose, in a way.
133
00:07:54,992 --> 00:07:56,367
Then speak up.
134
00:07:56,823 --> 00:07:58,103
This is my family.
135
00:07:58,990 --> 00:08:01,660
What concerns me,concerns them.
136
00:08:01,860 --> 00:08:03,045
What about the prospective member?
137
00:08:03,556 --> 00:08:04,781
What? What do you mean?
138
00:08:05,081 --> 00:08:07,101
I think he means Bosinney.
Precisely.
139
00:08:07,836 --> 00:08:10,355
Phil?
- Is it something to do with the house?
140
00:08:10,547 --> 00:08:11,984
Since you ask, yes.
141
00:08:12,284 --> 00:08:13,804
What is it? What's happened?
142
00:08:14,004 --> 00:08:15,724
Jo, shouldn't we leave?
I think, father..
143
00:08:15,924 --> 00:08:16,775
No, I'd prefer you to stay,
144
00:08:16,975 --> 00:08:18,361
as uncle Jolyon considers you're concerned.
145
00:08:19,111 --> 00:08:20,383
And you may be.
146
00:08:21,492 --> 00:08:22,768
Well?
147
00:08:23,524 --> 00:08:25,410
Our distinguished architect
is getting himself into a mess.
148
00:08:26,519 --> 00:08:28,158
The construction of my house is finished,
149
00:08:28,358 --> 00:08:29,718
there now remains the decorations.
150
00:08:30,965 --> 00:08:33,353
The cost so far is much higher
than I intended to pay,
151
00:08:33,553 --> 00:08:35,039
much higher than his estimates.
152
00:08:36,034 --> 00:08:39,286
He has totally disregarded all protests
and suggestions for economy,
153
00:08:39,580 --> 00:08:40,850
and I've just had to pay up.
154
00:08:41,615 --> 00:08:43,455
Now, as you know it was agreed
that he should do the decorations.
155
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,482
So..I ventured
156
00:08:46,966 --> 00:08:50,734
to write to him asking for a detailed
estimate and urging the strictest economy.
157
00:08:52,119 --> 00:08:53,769
Perhaps you might be interested
to hear the gist of his reply.
158
00:08:53,969 --> 00:08:55,612
What's all this got to do with us?
159
00:08:56,844 --> 00:08:58,756
Since he's supposed to be marrying june,
160
00:08:58,956 --> 00:09:00,683
I'd have thought it might have been of some interest.
161
00:09:02,188 --> 00:09:04,338
He says,
"if I am to go on with the decoration,
162
00:09:04,538 --> 00:09:07,669
"I should like you to understand
that you must give me a free hand.
163
00:09:07,844 --> 00:09:09,776
"You never come down without suggesting
164
00:09:09,976 --> 00:09:12,057
something that goes counter to my scheme.
165
00:09:12,350 --> 00:09:15,663
So please make up your mind
whether you want me to decorate or to retire,
166
00:09:15,915 --> 00:09:17,184
which on the whole I'd prefer to do.
167
00:09:17,636 --> 00:09:19,810
"But understand that if I decorate,
I do so alone,
168
00:09:20,010 --> 00:09:21,563
without interference of any sort."
169
00:09:22,247 --> 00:09:24,189
Well, that seems clear enough.
170
00:09:24,757 --> 00:09:26,957
Yes. I'm to give a free hand
to spend my money like water.
171
00:09:27,565 --> 00:09:28,717
No estimates, no controls.
172
00:09:29,172 --> 00:09:30,308
He gives you an alternative,
soames.
173
00:09:30,788 --> 00:09:32,019
He offers to resign.
Let him.
174
00:09:32,995 --> 00:09:35,371
No, he mustn'T.
That would be wicked.
175
00:09:36,105 --> 00:09:37,444
It's his house. Phil's!
I beg your pardon?
176
00:09:38,472 --> 00:09:39,769
I know it's your money,
but that's all.
177
00:09:40,851 --> 00:09:42,485
The house is his because he created it,
178
00:09:42,685 --> 00:09:44,780
and it'll still be his
when you're dead and gone.
179
00:09:45,697 --> 00:09:48,786
You don't own it any more than
you could own a Rembrandt,
180
00:09:48,986 --> 00:09:50,696
however much you paid for it.
181
00:09:50,915 --> 00:09:52,086
You don't know what you're
talking about.
182
00:10:00,835 --> 00:10:02,633
For once, Soames,
I'm inclined to agree with you.
183
00:10:03,868 --> 00:10:06,367
But Jo's right,
if don't trust a man, don't employ him.
184
00:10:07,037 --> 00:10:07,908
It's not so simple.
185
00:10:08,108 --> 00:10:10,306
I'd have to start all over
again with a new man,
186
00:10:10,939 --> 00:10:12,368
with new designs, more delay,
a lot of extra expense anyway.
187
00:10:14,825 --> 00:10:16,498
Appears to have you in a cleft stick.
188
00:10:17,162 --> 00:10:18,242
No.
189
00:10:18,946 --> 00:10:20,233
I know my remedies,
I'm a lawyer.
190
00:10:21,882 --> 00:10:24,406
I came around because someone
ought to warn Bosinney,
191
00:10:24,606 --> 00:10:26,595
in his own interests, not to go too far.
192
00:10:27,413 --> 00:10:28,534
I thought a word from you
would carry weight.
193
00:10:29,431 --> 00:10:31,298
No, you can manage your own affairs.
194
00:10:31,498 --> 00:10:33,157
I'll have nothing to do with it.
195
00:10:33,341 --> 00:10:35,044
You can leave me out of it.
196
00:10:35,273 --> 00:10:36,214
And me, I'm afraid.
197
00:10:36,414 --> 00:10:38,086
He's unlikely to listen
to anything I might say.
198
00:10:42,170 --> 00:10:46,884
I should like to ask a question if I may,
199
00:10:47,184 --> 00:10:49,077
because no one has mentioned it.
200
00:10:49,277 --> 00:10:53,369
Now this house is finished,
the construction, of course.
201
00:10:55,047 --> 00:10:56,438
Are you pleased with it?
202
00:10:56,918 --> 00:11:00,061
I mean, do you approve of
what the architect has done?
203
00:11:01,373 --> 00:11:02,773
Yes, I suppose so.
204
00:11:03,437 --> 00:11:05,499
And your wife,
does she like it?
205
00:11:06,547 --> 00:11:08,015
I believe so.
206
00:11:08,366 --> 00:11:10,744
And forgive me, but you are not a poor man.
207
00:11:10,944 --> 00:11:13,268
This extra cost will not cripple you.
208
00:11:14,197 --> 00:11:14,948
No?
209
00:11:16,357 --> 00:11:17,569
Then I think you should be content.
210
00:11:19,137 --> 00:11:20,945
How seldom can one find the perfect thing?
211
00:11:22,569 --> 00:11:26,561
When you do, you should be content,
whatever you have to pay.
212
00:11:29,443 --> 00:11:30,975
I'm obliged to you.
213
00:11:31,687 --> 00:11:33,873
I'm exceedingly obliged
to you all.
214
00:11:34,494 --> 00:11:36,040
Good day.
215
00:11:39,311 --> 00:11:40,508
It's intolerable.
216
00:11:40,743 --> 00:11:42,896
That infernal young jackanapes
coming in here, upsetting everybody!
217
00:11:42,984 --> 00:11:47,257
What did he mean, gran,
when he spoke of remedies?
218
00:11:47,291 --> 00:11:49,605
Can he do anything to phil?
219
00:11:49,635 --> 00:11:51,745
Of course not.
Lawyer's claptrap.
220
00:11:52,715 --> 00:11:55,386
All the same, my dear,
he's an ugly customer,
221
00:11:56,081 --> 00:11:57,736
especially where
property's concerned.
222
00:11:58,321 --> 00:12:01,846
Perhaps you had better have
a word with young Bosinney.
223
00:12:02,446 --> 00:12:05,965
Tell him not to go too far.
Tell him not to drive Soames.
224
00:12:06,065 --> 00:12:08,576
Tell him?
How can I?
225
00:12:08,776 --> 00:12:12,023
How can I tell him anything?
I never see him.
226
00:12:12,906 --> 00:12:14,499
I haven't seen him for weeks.
227
00:12:17,730 --> 00:12:19,365
Oh, Jo...?
Yes, please, please.Please do.
228
00:12:24,691 --> 00:12:26,074
June.
229
00:12:28,186 --> 00:12:29,729
June, dear.
Don't touch me.
230
00:12:32,201 --> 00:12:33,673
But can't I help you?
231
00:12:34,737 --> 00:12:36,207
I'd so like to.
232
00:12:37,151 --> 00:12:38,522
I don't need help.
233
00:12:38,722 --> 00:12:42,228
Not from anyone, and
especially not from you.
234
00:12:46,244 --> 00:12:47,643
Jo, my dear boy.
235
00:12:48,259 --> 00:12:50,139
I don't know what
to make of him.
236
00:12:51,490 --> 00:12:54,345
They tell me he works hard,
but I see no good coming of it.
237
00:12:54,937 --> 00:12:56,256
He's impractical,
no method.
238
00:12:58,906 --> 00:13:00,187
He never comes here now,
239
00:13:00,387 --> 00:13:03,696
but when he did, he never looked
at June the way he ought to.
240
00:13:05,350 --> 00:13:06,684
He's not after her money.
241
00:13:07,292 --> 00:13:08,972
He'd be off tomorrow with
his bargain, if she gave a sign.
242
00:13:10,067 --> 00:13:12,875
But she won't.
She'll stick to him, never let go.
243
00:13:14,627 --> 00:13:17,459
Well, I've persuaded her to
come away with me for a month.
244
00:13:17,659 --> 00:13:18,255
Switzerland.
245
00:13:19,300 --> 00:13:20,868
She used to like
the mountains.
246
00:13:20,903 --> 00:13:22,881
She's gone to her room.
247
00:13:24,815 --> 00:13:29,000
Father, I regret to have to say this,
but there's a rumor going around.
248
00:13:29,199 --> 00:13:32,041
You've heard it too?
249
00:13:32,061 --> 00:13:34,728
At the club.
Do you know it?
250
00:13:35,094 --> 00:13:36,956
Helene? Oh, yes.
251
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,224
There's always gossip and scandal.
252
00:13:39,424 --> 00:13:41,728
I don't believe a word of it.
But it's true.
253
00:13:44,209 --> 00:13:47,055
How do you know?
We saw them together.
254
00:13:47,255 --> 00:13:50,004
Today in the gardens, when I was painting.
255
00:13:55,837 --> 00:13:57,326
So it is true.
256
00:13:57,868 --> 00:13:59,093
And I'm afraid it's
the real thing, father.
257
00:13:59,661 --> 00:14:01,356
Real? What do you mean?
- Not a summer flirtation.
258
00:14:01,980 --> 00:14:04,835
They are in love,
seriously and deeply.
259
00:14:05,588 --> 00:14:07,043
How can you tell?
260
00:14:08,562 --> 00:14:11,089
By their attitude towards
each other,
261
00:14:11,768 --> 00:14:14,176
by their faces,
hers especially.
262
00:14:15,175 --> 00:14:18,150
We think she must be married,
but whoever she is...
263
00:14:18,782 --> 00:14:21,269
What?
You don't know?
264
00:14:23,133 --> 00:14:25,499
They haven't told you that,
Jo,at the club?
265
00:14:25,698 --> 00:14:25,973
No.
266
00:14:25,993 --> 00:14:28,374
Well, I will.
267
00:14:28,583 --> 00:14:31,036
Her name is irene forsyte.
268
00:14:31,236 --> 00:14:33,463
Oh, no.
Soames' wife.
269
00:14:34,233 --> 00:14:35,216
Oh, my god. Yes.
270
00:14:35,416 --> 00:14:38,609
That's what they've been
chattering about for weeks.
271
00:14:38,809 --> 00:14:40,445
Pretty, isn't it?
272
00:14:44,438 --> 00:14:46,263
Jo, I want you to go along
and see this young Bosinney.
273
00:14:46,463 --> 00:14:47,714
Father, what can I do?
274
00:14:49,039 --> 00:14:50,871
We must know what he intends.
The thing can't just drift.
275
00:14:51,565 --> 00:14:52,757
Surely I'm the last person...
you're the only one.
276
00:14:52,957 --> 00:14:54,750
I'd lose my temper,
rap him over the knuckles.
277
00:14:54,950 --> 00:14:56,783
It wouldn't do.
278
00:14:58,826 --> 00:15:01,525
I'm sorry, but can you honestly
see me playing the heavy, father?
279
00:15:01,725 --> 00:15:06,106
Asking a man his intentions,
bringing him up to the mark?
280
00:15:06,306 --> 00:15:08,431
It's a distasteful thing
to have to do anyway,
281
00:15:08,631 --> 00:15:10,236
but for me,it's simply ludicrous.
282
00:15:10,436 --> 00:15:13,091
Bosinney would just laugh in my face.
283
00:15:13,870 --> 00:15:16,453
Jo, darling,
it's a very small thing to be laughed at.
284
00:15:17,944 --> 00:15:20,925
June's your daughter, and she needs help.
285
00:15:21,475 --> 00:15:23,101
She's fretting,there's no doubt about it,
286
00:15:23,301 --> 00:15:24,451
fretting herself to a shadow.
287
00:15:25,599 --> 00:15:26,893
Very well.
I'll think about it.
288
00:15:27,093 --> 00:15:30,571
But if I do decide to go see him,
don't expect anything to come of it.
289
00:15:31,559 --> 00:15:32,742
From what I've heard today,
290
00:15:32,942 --> 00:15:37,282
this young mr. Bosinney is not
the easiest man to deal with.
291
00:15:37,878 --> 00:15:39,175
And therefore,as you request,
292
00:15:39,375 --> 00:15:41,345
I give you a free hand with the decorations.
293
00:15:41,545 --> 00:15:43,297
But I want it clearly understood
294
00:15:43,317 --> 00:15:45,628
that the total cost of the house,
295
00:15:45,828 --> 00:15:49,609
inclusive of your fee,
must not exceed 12,000 pounds.
296
00:15:50,663 --> 00:15:52,844
This gives you an ample margin and,
297
00:15:53,044 --> 00:15:56,469
as you know,
is far more than I originally contemplated.
298
00:16:13,019 --> 00:16:14,066
"Dear Forsyte:
299
00:16:14,698 --> 00:16:16,520
If you think that in such
a delicate matter as decoration
300
00:16:17,049 --> 00:16:19,951
I can bind myself to the exact pound,
I'm afraid you're mistaken.
301
00:16:20,151 --> 00:16:23,942
I can see that you are tired
of the arrangement and of me,
302
00:16:24,227 --> 00:16:25,777
and therefore I had better resign."
303
00:16:44,894 --> 00:16:47,038
"Dear Bosinney,
in both our interests it is undesirable
304
00:16:47,238 --> 00:16:48,978
that matters should be left at this stage.
305
00:16:50,331 --> 00:16:52,373
I did not mean to say
that if you should exceed
306
00:16:52,573 --> 00:16:54,305
the sum named in my letter by 10 or 20
307
00:16:54,612 --> 00:16:57,401
or even 50 pounds,
there would be any difficulty between us.
308
00:16:58,290 --> 00:17:00,561
This being so, I should like you to reconsider your answer.
309
00:17:01,576 --> 00:17:04,358
You have a free hand in the
terms of this correspondence."
310
00:17:11,181 --> 00:17:12,515
Pompous ass.
311
00:17:14,451 --> 00:17:15,763
Well, you've read the letters.
312
00:17:16,987 --> 00:17:19,203
There's his latest one.
313
00:17:22,657 --> 00:17:24,151
"Dear Forsyte, very well.
314
00:17:24,791 --> 00:17:26,337
Philip Bosinney."
315
00:17:27,014 --> 00:17:30,189
There it is, in writing.
Can't go back on that,can he?
316
00:17:30,452 --> 00:17:32,265
He'd better not.
No, even he must realize i mean what I say.
317
00:17:34,376 --> 00:17:36,837
Your mother and I would like to see the house.
318
00:17:37,565 --> 00:17:38,813
When do you think we can come?
319
00:17:40,325 --> 00:17:41,411
Any time you like.
320
00:17:42,299 --> 00:17:43,747
Should we say saturday
fortnight?
321
00:17:43,911 --> 00:17:45,308
I shall be down in southampton on friday,
322
00:17:45,508 --> 00:17:46,958
but I could come up from there to meet you.
323
00:17:47,386 --> 00:17:48,897
Then we'll drive down
and take Irene.
324
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,520
I daresay she'll have plenty
to say about the decoration.
325
00:17:53,488 --> 00:17:55,734
You can ask her,
but I doubt if she'll go.
326
00:17:56,638 --> 00:17:58,638
Won't go?
- What's the meaning of that?
327
00:17:59,117 --> 00:18:00,469
She's going to live there,
isn't she?
328
00:18:01,989 --> 00:18:03,356
I don't know,
they don't tell me,
329
00:18:04,796 --> 00:18:06,603
but I don't know what's come
to women nowadays.
330
00:18:07,178 --> 00:18:08,365
I never used to have
any trouble with them.
331
00:18:08,866 --> 00:18:10,177
But now, "won't do this,
won't do that."
332
00:18:10,662 --> 00:18:12,442
You mark my words,she's
had too much liberty.
333
00:18:12,642 --> 00:18:13,649
She's spoiled.
334
00:18:13,841 --> 00:18:15,573
I won't have anything said against her.
335
00:18:15,773 --> 00:18:17,727
No? Well, there's too much talk altogether.
336
00:18:18,175 --> 00:18:19,395
Talk?
337
00:18:23,176 --> 00:18:24,033
What about?
338
00:18:24,576 --> 00:18:25,904
What about? How should I know
what about?
339
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:27,396
Now you take my advice.
340
00:18:27,596 --> 00:18:28,828
Don't you listen to anything
they say at Timothy's,
341
00:18:29,028 --> 00:18:29,866
or anywhere else for that matter.
342
00:18:29,921 --> 00:18:30,557
I don't.
343
00:18:31,121 --> 00:18:33,310
She's a good little thing at heart.
Your mother's quite sure of that.
344
00:18:34,849 --> 00:18:36,419
That's very kind of mother.
And so am I.
345
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,319
But she ought to settle down a
bit, away from distractions.
346
00:18:40,519 --> 00:18:43,312
Yes, Robin hill's the place.
347
00:18:44,061 --> 00:18:46,277
But I knew how it'd be.
348
00:18:46,625 --> 00:18:49,003
Unless a woman has children
and responsibilities...
349
00:18:49,854 --> 00:18:52,009
mr. Soames, sir Herbert's
here to see you.
350
00:18:52,863 --> 00:18:53,863
I'll come.
351
00:19:07,186 --> 00:19:08,393
Your mother-in-law couldn't come.
352
00:19:09,385 --> 00:19:10,593
She's got a sore toe.
353
00:19:11,081 --> 00:19:12,320
I'm sorry.
354
00:19:14,687 --> 00:19:15,927
You look peaky.
355
00:19:16,639 --> 00:19:18,350
The drive down
will do you good.
356
00:19:24,028 --> 00:19:25,770
Soames is very fond of you.
357
00:19:26,603 --> 00:19:28,059
He won't have anything said against you.
358
00:19:29,498 --> 00:19:31,465
Why don't you show him more affection?
359
00:19:32,857 --> 00:19:34,344
I can't show what i haven't got.
360
00:19:35,529 --> 00:19:36,719
I don't know what you're about.
361
00:19:37,271 --> 00:19:38,847
He's a very good husband.
You're not married to him.
362
00:19:39,310 --> 00:19:40,169
What's that? Eh?
363
00:19:41,675 --> 00:19:43,306
He gives you everything you want,
takes you everywhere.
364
00:19:43,722 --> 00:19:45,098
And now he's built you this house in the country.
365
00:19:46,524 --> 00:19:49,152
It's not as if you had anything of your own.
No.
366
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:52,926
I'm sure we've all tried
to be kind to you.
367
00:19:53,447 --> 00:19:54,574
And we're all fond
of you.
368
00:19:55,030 --> 00:19:57,046
If you'd only behave...
369
00:19:57,909 --> 00:19:59,952
I mean, if you'd only
be more of a wife to him.
370
00:20:04,300 --> 00:20:05,960
Well, now the house is finished, I suppose
371
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,374
June and that young fellow
will be getting married, eh?
372
00:20:09,111 --> 00:20:10,447
I don't know.
You should ask her.
373
00:20:10,998 --> 00:20:13,158
I hear she's away in Switzerland
with her grandfather.
374
00:20:13,573 --> 00:20:15,037
Does she write to you?
- No.
375
00:20:15,917 --> 00:20:17,604
But I thought you and she
were such great friends.
376
00:20:17,928 --> 00:20:19,303
Again, I suggest you ask her.
377
00:20:22,342 --> 00:20:23,862
Well, it's very odd.
378
00:20:24,853 --> 00:20:26,493
I can't get a plain answer to a
plain question, but there it is.
379
00:20:28,747 --> 00:20:29,863
Well, don't say i haven't warned you.
380
00:20:30,063 --> 00:20:30,970
Soames doesn't talk much,
381
00:20:31,170 --> 00:20:33,529
but he won't put up with a great
deal more of this sort of thing.
382
00:20:33,804 --> 00:20:34,978
What sort of thing?
383
00:20:35,661 --> 00:20:36,839
Well, how should I know?
384
00:20:38,959 --> 00:20:40,470
Let me tell you, you'll have
nobody but yourself to blame.
385
00:20:40,950 --> 00:20:43,413
What's more, you'll get
no sympathy from anyone.
386
00:20:43,613 --> 00:20:48,668
Thank you.I'll bear that in mind.
387
00:20:49,404 --> 00:20:51,267
Whatever happens, I'm to get no sympathy.
388
00:20:52,716 --> 00:20:54,242
It's a long time since I expected any.
389
00:21:21,198 --> 00:21:22,629
Well, how do you do, mr. Forsyte?
390
00:21:22,857 --> 00:21:24,180
Come down to see for yourself?
- How are you?
391
00:21:24,729 --> 00:21:26,010
Soames here yet?
- Not yet.
392
00:21:26,613 --> 00:21:28,044
Will you excuse me,
please?
393
00:21:30,859 --> 00:21:33,187
Well, very impressive.
394
00:21:35,881 --> 00:21:38,034
You've been spending money
pretty freely here, I should say.
395
00:21:38,861 --> 00:21:40,437
Now what did that cost?
396
00:21:41,619 --> 00:21:42,819
What would you think?
- I?
397
00:21:43,284 --> 00:21:45,674
I have no idea.
Two or three hundred,I dare say.
398
00:21:45,702 --> 00:21:47,001
The exact sum.
399
00:21:55,553 --> 00:21:58,841
That tree out there,that ought to come down.
400
00:21:59,041 --> 00:22:00,312
Oh, you think so?
401
00:22:00,512 --> 00:22:02,347
You think with that tree in the way,
402
00:22:02,547 --> 00:22:04,842
you don't get enough
view for your money, eh?
403
00:22:06,483 --> 00:22:07,546
Well, I don't see what
you want with a tree.
404
00:22:09,295 --> 00:22:11,067
It shall come down tomorrow.
Don't say I thought it should come down.
405
00:22:11,139 --> 00:22:13,258
I know nothing about it.
No?
406
00:22:13,489 --> 00:22:15,803
Nothing to do with me.
You do it on your own responsibility.
407
00:22:16,595 --> 00:22:18,371
But you'll allow me to mention your name?
- Certainly not.
408
00:22:20,251 --> 00:22:22,537
Better leave the tree alone.
It's not your tree.
409
00:22:26,607 --> 00:22:28,316
You must have spent a deuce
of a lot on these columns.
410
00:22:28,516 --> 00:22:29,589
Now what did they cost?
411
00:22:30,324 --> 00:22:33,681
Can't tell you offhand,
but I know it was a deuce of a lot.
412
00:22:34,792 --> 00:22:37,890
I should think so.
I should...
413
00:22:38,458 --> 00:22:42,121
the picture gallery lies behind these
curtains, worked by these ropes.
414
00:22:44,127 --> 00:22:46,759
This one to open them,
and this one to close them.
415
00:22:48,903 --> 00:22:52,900
The ropes cost ten and six
a yard, including the tassels.
416
00:22:54,037 --> 00:22:55,973
Well, you've certainly spread yourself here.
417
00:23:00,374 --> 00:23:02,424
I had no idea you were coming down today.
418
00:23:02,524 --> 00:23:03,542
I'm glad.
419
00:23:04,010 --> 00:23:06,792
I nearly didn't, but I couldn't
forgot the chance of seeing you.
420
00:23:07,466 --> 00:23:08,124
And now?
421
00:23:08,465 --> 00:23:09,089
I'm glad too.
422
00:23:10,827 --> 00:23:13,181
I was lectured all the way down,
but it was worth it.
423
00:23:13,381 --> 00:23:15,544
When shall I see you again?
Soon.
424
00:23:16,974 --> 00:23:18,347
Bosinney!
425
00:23:21,409 --> 00:23:22,919
I want a word with you.
426
00:23:26,824 --> 00:23:28,597
Have you seen these latest accounts?
427
00:23:28,797 --> 00:23:29,783
Yes, I believe so.
428
00:23:29,793 --> 00:23:31,256
And you realize
what you've done?
429
00:23:31,455 --> 00:23:33,338
Yes I've finished your house
for you.
430
00:23:34,805 --> 00:23:36,757
Here it stands, beautiful,
a work of art,
431
00:23:37,139 --> 00:23:39,101
ready for you
to take possession.
432
00:23:39,528 --> 00:23:41,565
And I suppose you're quite
satisfied with yourself.
433
00:23:42,901 --> 00:23:44,828
I'll tell you what you've done.
You've put yourself in queer street.
434
00:23:45,277 --> 00:23:47,402
And if you don't know it now
you will, before you're very much older!
435
00:23:47,602 --> 00:23:48,780
What's the matter?
What's all this?
436
00:23:49,502 --> 00:23:52,556
Our young friend has exceeded
his instructions again, that's all.
437
00:23:53,216 --> 00:23:54,677
So much of the worse
for him.
438
00:23:59,868 --> 00:24:01,930
Tomorrow?
439
00:24:04,836 --> 00:24:06,394
There's a storm coming up.
440
00:24:07,026 --> 00:24:08,383
Shouldn't we go home?
Yes.
441
00:24:08,583 --> 00:24:10,746
We can't take you,I suppose, mr. Bosinney?
442
00:24:11,016 --> 00:24:12,490
No.
Well then, goodbye.
443
00:24:14,869 --> 00:24:16,245
Goodbye, mr. Forsyte.
444
00:24:22,483 --> 00:24:25,685
Mr. Forsyte, don't you get caught in any storms, will you?
445
00:24:55,788 --> 00:24:57,155
Thank you, Bilson.
446
00:24:57,394 --> 00:24:59,250
We shan't need anything more tonight.
You may go to bed.
447
00:24:59,473 --> 00:25:01,592
Thank you, madam.Good night.
448
00:25:01,792 --> 00:25:02,625
Good night.
449
00:25:17,980 --> 00:25:20,260
Where are you going?
To bed.
450
00:25:22,555 --> 00:25:24,146
You haven't spoken
a word all evening.
451
00:25:25,122 --> 00:25:28,944
You rarely do nowadays,
to me.
452
00:25:32,587 --> 00:25:34,074
What do you think about?
453
00:25:41,495 --> 00:25:42,943
No, don't go.
454
00:25:46,622 --> 00:25:49,517
I've been looking up my correspondence
with your friend,the buccaneer.
455
00:25:51,261 --> 00:25:53,100
He's made a fool of himself,and he'll have to pay.
456
00:25:54,627 --> 00:25:56,779
I don't know what you're talking about.
You soon will.
457
00:25:57,425 --> 00:25:59,401
It's a mere trifle, of course,
quite beneath your contempt.
458
00:26:00,288 --> 00:26:02,009
A matter of 400 pounds.
459
00:26:03,271 --> 00:26:04,541
Are you saying you're going
460
00:26:04,741 --> 00:26:07,046
to make him pay that
towards this hateful house?
461
00:26:07,783 --> 00:26:08,710
I am.
462
00:26:09,341 --> 00:26:10,540
And you know he's got nothing?
- Yes.
463
00:26:10,965 --> 00:26:12,348
Then you're even meaner
than I thought.
464
00:26:16,139 --> 00:26:17,770
What is your idea
of a wife's duty?
465
00:26:19,360 --> 00:26:20,849
I've never known.
466
00:26:21,608 --> 00:26:25,671
Soames, do you remember the day
I agreed to marry you?
467
00:26:26,607 --> 00:26:29,168
I promised then to do my utmost
to be a good and loving wife to you.
468
00:26:29,268 --> 00:26:30,445
And I've tried to keep that promise.
469
00:26:32,017 --> 00:26:33,272
My god, soames.How I've tried!
470
00:26:34,301 --> 00:26:35,684
Been very little sign of it.
471
00:26:36,164 --> 00:26:37,397
But you made a promise too.
472
00:26:38,403 --> 00:26:40,023
You said that if our marriage
weren't a success you'd let me go.
473
00:26:40,091 --> 00:26:41,605
Is it a success?
474
00:26:41,801 --> 00:26:44,845
It would be, if you behaved yourself.
475
00:26:45,092 --> 00:26:47,155
You promised.
476
00:26:47,175 --> 00:26:49,522
I did no such thing!
You swore it, Soames, on your honor.
477
00:26:52,239 --> 00:26:53,391
Will you let me go?
478
00:26:53,888 --> 00:26:55,207
How can I? We're married!
479
00:26:56,332 --> 00:26:57,923
Well then, don't talk such nonsense.
Never, do you hear me?
480
00:26:58,739 --> 00:26:59,859
Never again.
I won't put up with it.
481
00:27:01,137 --> 00:27:03,211
Then you won't let me go?
482
00:27:03,461 --> 00:27:04,496
What would you do if I did?
483
00:27:04,905 --> 00:27:06,245
You've got no money.
I could manage somehow.
484
00:27:07,227 --> 00:27:09,225
Once and for all, I will not
have you say such things.
485
00:27:09,969 --> 00:27:15,384
It's wrong and impossible,
so never speak of it again.
486
00:27:18,523 --> 00:27:19,732
Don't you understand?
487
00:27:21,084 --> 00:27:22,683
Do you still
refuse to believe it?
488
00:27:24,498 --> 00:27:25,946
I loathe you, Soames.
489
00:27:28,664 --> 00:27:30,311
I loathe the very sight of you.
490
00:28:00,782 --> 00:28:01,990
There you are.
491
00:30:01,715 --> 00:30:02,986
Unlock this door.
492
00:30:03,771 --> 00:30:05,233
You hear me?
- Unlock this door!
493
00:30:07,505 --> 00:30:09,345
Let me in at once!
494
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,712
I insist that you let me in!
495
00:30:47,878 --> 00:30:49,443
Irene?
496
00:30:53,985 --> 00:30:55,625
Irene?
497
00:31:22,271 --> 00:31:23,383
Who are you?
498
00:31:23,943 --> 00:31:25,510
Oh, yes, I remember.
You're a Forsyte.
499
00:31:26,245 --> 00:31:27,605
I've seen you
at the club.
500
00:31:28,101 --> 00:31:29,940
Yes, and we were introduced
after the funeral. Come in.
501
00:31:30,596 --> 00:31:31,860
Thank you.
502
00:31:33,331 --> 00:31:35,578
My name is Jo,
short for Jolyon.
503
00:31:36,626 --> 00:31:40,354
Ah, yes,
the senior branch.
504
00:31:41,424 --> 00:31:42,744
Yes, I suppose so.
505
00:31:43,552 --> 00:31:44,679
And unless I've
been misinformed,
506
00:31:45,278 --> 00:31:47,194
the ex-prodigal twig?
507
00:31:47,741 --> 00:31:49,612
You could say that.
508
00:31:50,588 --> 00:31:51,797
I say, look here,
forgive the mess.
509
00:31:52,308 --> 00:31:54,172
I'm having my annual cleanup.
510
00:31:54,372 --> 00:31:56,906
I've had to sack my cleaning woman.
Was she dishonest?
511
00:31:57,431 --> 00:31:58,462
On the contrary, no.
512
00:31:58,662 --> 00:32:01,447
It was I who was sorely tempted to steal...
her wages.
513
00:32:01,647 --> 00:32:03,313
I'm stony broke.
514
00:32:03,392 --> 00:32:06,621
I see. I understand.I sympathize.
I know how it feels.
515
00:32:06,821 --> 00:32:08,726
You? A Forsyte knows how it feels?
516
00:32:09,174 --> 00:32:10,360
I assure you.
517
00:32:11,008 --> 00:32:14,431
Well... but then you escaped
from them, didn't you?
518
00:32:14,955 --> 00:32:15,811
Yes.
519
00:32:16,547 --> 00:32:18,701
Why?
- I'm sorry.I shouldn't ask, but...
520
00:32:20,521 --> 00:32:23,063
if ever we get to know each other properly,
I'll tell you the whole story.
521
00:32:24,526 --> 00:32:26,053
I'll hold you to that.
522
00:32:26,998 --> 00:32:28,597
And now, if you'll excuse me,
I simply must get on.
523
00:32:29,188 --> 00:32:30,429
Yes, of course.
Let me help you.
524
00:32:31,005 --> 00:32:32,472
No, you don't know my methods.
525
00:32:32,672 --> 00:32:34,578
No, you just follow me around and talk.
526
00:32:36,570 --> 00:32:38,867
You can begin by telling
me why you came here.
527
00:32:39,067 --> 00:32:39,676
Let me.
528
00:32:40,482 --> 00:32:41,931
Thank you.
529
00:32:45,508 --> 00:32:47,187
You didn't come here just to
look at a starving architect, now, did you?
530
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:53,999
Your father asked you to come.
In a way.
531
00:32:55,142 --> 00:32:56,398
Yes.
532
00:32:57,575 --> 00:32:58,934
You know, I like him.
533
00:32:59,725 --> 00:33:01,677
He's a stuffy old philistine,
but he's honest. I like him.
534
00:33:02,197 --> 00:33:03,515
He'd be gratified
to hear it.
535
00:33:04,123 --> 00:33:05,578
Don't you be pompous.
It doesn't suit you.
536
00:33:06,170 --> 00:33:07,667
Is the house finished?
- Yes.
537
00:33:08,898 --> 00:33:10,313
Excuse me.
Is it good?
538
00:33:10,826 --> 00:33:13,041
I'm nearly satisfied.
I congratulate you.
539
00:33:13,129 --> 00:33:14,852
Oh, I don't know.
No?
540
00:33:15,975 --> 00:33:17,431
I'd have thought you'd be glad to get a long job
off your hands.
541
00:33:18,134 --> 00:33:20,834
But I suppose you feel as I
feel when I sell a painting,
542
00:33:21,034 --> 00:33:22,556
a child has grown up and gone.
543
00:33:24,542 --> 00:33:26,101
Yes. Something's gone
out of you, and...
544
00:33:27,205 --> 00:33:28,772
yes, gone.
545
00:33:30,024 --> 00:33:32,099
I didn't know you painted.
Only watercolors, I'm afraid.
546
00:33:33,003 --> 00:33:35,208
It's a very difficult medium.
Any fool of an amateur can paint in oils.
547
00:33:36,184 --> 00:33:38,136
You just slap it on, slap it on.
548
00:33:38,336 --> 00:33:40,776
If you don't like it,slap some more on.
549
00:33:41,985 --> 00:33:44,318
I've known politicians
who can paint quite respectably in oils.
550
00:33:45,749 --> 00:33:46,757
Do you paint well?
551
00:33:47,461 --> 00:33:49,388
Oh, I improve.
But the hard thing for me is to believe in it.
552
00:33:49,912 --> 00:33:51,968
Then how can you do it?
553
00:33:52,383 --> 00:33:53,885
Work's no good unless you
believe in it.
554
00:33:54,344 --> 00:33:55,733
That's exactly what
i've always said.
555
00:33:59,484 --> 00:34:00,748
You want to how I manage it,
I'll tell you.
556
00:34:01,970 --> 00:34:03,390
I'm a forsyte, so I concentrate.
557
00:34:05,014 --> 00:34:07,173
Painting's the only thing
i'm fit to do, so I do my damndest.
558
00:34:08,344 --> 00:34:10,480
Always hoping, of course,
at the back of my Forsyte mind,
559
00:34:11,206 --> 00:34:13,693
that I'll be successful,
and sell my paintings well
560
00:34:14,302 --> 00:34:16,629
and finish up as president of the
royal society of watercolor artists.
561
00:34:18,085 --> 00:34:21,732
A Forsyte, whatever his name may be,
is not an uncommon animal.
562
00:34:22,685 --> 00:34:23,942
How do you recognize him?
563
00:34:25,133 --> 00:34:26,549
By his sense of property.
564
00:34:27,317 --> 00:34:29,620
A Forsyte, as I see him,
is a slave to property.
565
00:34:30,651 --> 00:34:32,123
He knows a good thing.
He knows a safe thing.
566
00:34:33,226 --> 00:34:34,859
And he keeps a firm hold
on his property
567
00:34:35,864 --> 00:34:37,864
whether it be houses, money,
reputation,
568
00:34:39,312 --> 00:34:40,864
or wives.
569
00:34:42,903 --> 00:34:44,562
Yes.
570
00:34:45,494 --> 00:34:46,718
Plenty of Forsytes
in my profession.
571
00:34:47,317 --> 00:34:49,573
Architects? Yes, plenty.
And musicians, painters,
572
00:34:50,325 --> 00:34:53,970
writers, clergymen, journalists,
business and professional men.
573
00:34:55,210 --> 00:34:59,193
The majority of sound, able, three-percent
respectable citizens are Forsytes.
574
00:35:00,832 --> 00:35:02,232
You should patent the word.
575
00:35:02,848 --> 00:35:04,471
Yes. I should like to lecture
on the subject.
576
00:35:09,805 --> 00:35:12,486
Well, now you've got it all there.
577
00:35:12,685 --> 00:35:14,888
What are you going to do with it?
- God knows.
578
00:35:30,172 --> 00:35:31,956
Well? What's the message?
579
00:35:34,092 --> 00:35:36,138
It's dangerous to go against the majority.
580
00:35:37,379 --> 00:35:39,395
Never let anything carry you away.
581
00:35:40,342 --> 00:35:42,269
A house. A painting.
582
00:35:43,956 --> 00:35:45,901
A woman.
583
00:35:46,101 --> 00:35:47,076
They tell me you did.
584
00:35:47,726 --> 00:35:49,295
You forget, I'm a forsyte.
I hold on.
585
00:35:50,798 --> 00:35:52,998
But I wouldn't recommend
every man to go my way.
586
00:35:55,100 --> 00:35:56,742
Thanks.
587
00:35:57,358 --> 00:35:59,476
It's very kind of you.
But you're not the only people who can hold on.
588
00:36:01,901 --> 00:36:04,547
That's my message,
in case anyone's interested.
589
00:36:04,970 --> 00:36:06,555
Now you really must excuse me.
As you can see, I'm busy.
590
00:36:08,023 --> 00:36:10,637
Problems to solve,
property to dispose of.
591
00:36:16,509 --> 00:36:18,489
My regards to your father.
592
00:36:19,104 --> 00:36:20,968
Well, come in.
593
00:36:26,219 --> 00:36:28,068
Good afternoon.
594
00:36:40,726 --> 00:36:42,086
I thought you'd come today.
595
00:36:42,870 --> 00:36:44,641
No, I knew it.
Did you?
596
00:36:45,581 --> 00:36:47,056
So I've been trying
to tidy up.
597
00:36:49,715 --> 00:36:51,243
You're not very good
at it, are you?
598
00:36:53,554 --> 00:36:55,745
It's rather one of
the many things I do badly.
599
00:36:57,512 --> 00:37:00,384
Who was that man?
Who?- Him.
600
00:37:01,310 --> 00:37:02,909
Oh, him.
Nobody that need concern us.
601
00:37:07,813 --> 00:37:08,938
Is this the day?
602
00:37:09,603 --> 00:37:11,577
Is it? At last?
603
00:37:12,215 --> 00:37:13,542
Yes, Philip.
604
00:37:22,265 --> 00:37:25,233
It's been so long, my darling, so long.
605
00:37:25,687 --> 00:37:27,591
Your fault,your fault...
of course, my fault,
606
00:37:28,694 --> 00:37:30,222
but how should I know?
607
00:37:31,845 --> 00:37:33,630
You knew from the very beginning.
Yes, yes, I knew.
608
00:37:34,557 --> 00:37:36,101
No other man but you,
no other love.
609
00:37:37,251 --> 00:37:38,579
But I had to be sure.
610
00:37:39,243 --> 00:37:40,898
Oh, no, not of you,
but of myself.
611
00:37:41,538 --> 00:37:44,041
And now at I am.
Completely and utterly sure.
612
00:37:45,009 --> 00:37:49,432
All my doubts and indecisions and fears are gone,
like a child's bad dream.
613
00:37:50,607 --> 00:37:52,406
I never thought it
could happen, but it has.
614
00:37:54,181 --> 00:37:57,565
I'm deeply in love,
oceans deep.
615
00:38:00,761 --> 00:38:03,472
So kiss me, Philip, and love me.
616
00:38:05,119 --> 00:38:07,527
Nothing else in the whole world is of any importance.
617
00:38:18,462 --> 00:38:20,477
And that's their defense.
618
00:38:21,580 --> 00:38:22,694
And you'd better read it.
619
00:38:22,894 --> 00:38:23,903
I will.
620
00:38:24,103 --> 00:38:26,677
What line are they taking?
- They admit the facts.
621
00:38:27,498 --> 00:38:31,794
But on the question of the letters
between us, they raise a point.
622
00:38:31,994 --> 00:38:33,914
Briefly, they say,
that "to speak of a free hand"
623
00:38:34,114 --> 00:38:36,274
in the terms of this
correspondence is an irish bull.
624
00:38:37,386 --> 00:38:38,470
That cat won't jump.
625
00:38:39,333 --> 00:38:40,725
Any judge will make
short work of that.
626
00:38:41,390 --> 00:38:42,652
Have you taken
an opinion on it?
627
00:38:43,252 --> 00:38:44,516
Yes, waterbuck, Q.C.
628
00:38:45,018 --> 00:38:46,731
He says it's a nice point.
629
00:38:48,297 --> 00:38:50,122
An able fellow, Waterbuck.
Are you briefing him?
630
00:38:51,001 --> 00:38:51,426
Yes.
631
00:38:51,626 --> 00:38:55,515
Well, I shouldn't have thought
the case was open and shut, but I can't tell.
632
00:38:56,874 --> 00:38:58,154
If Waterbuck talks
of a nice point...
633
00:38:58,260 --> 00:39:00,355
Excuse me, father.
We'll talk about it later, I have to go.
634
00:39:03,635 --> 00:39:04,562
Gradman.
635
00:39:05,593 --> 00:39:07,233
Gradman, do we know
who the judge is yet?
636
00:39:07,705 --> 00:39:09,872
Forsyte versus bosinney?
- Yes, mr. Soames.
637
00:39:10,704 --> 00:39:12,376
Mr. Justice Bentham,
I heard this morning.
638
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,943
He's a strong judge.
Stands no nonsense.
639
00:39:15,559 --> 00:39:18,055
All the better.
Well, Soames.
640
00:39:19,261 --> 00:39:21,029
Your precious house
is finished, I hear.
641
00:39:22,043 --> 00:39:23,516
But you're not
living in it, eh?
642
00:39:24,626 --> 00:39:26,355
Excuse me.
I hear other things too.
643
00:39:26,811 --> 00:39:28,113
And I don't like
what I hear.
644
00:39:28,545 --> 00:39:30,010
Excuse me!
645
00:39:30,212 --> 00:39:32,684
Is Mr. Forsyte free, Gradman?
- Yes, I believe so, sir.
646
00:39:33,548 --> 00:39:34,934
Then I'll go in.
647
00:39:38,071 --> 00:39:39,356
How are you, Jolyon?
648
00:39:40,028 --> 00:39:42,083
Haven't seen you for an age.
Two months.
649
00:39:42,628 --> 00:39:44,650
You've been to Switzerland,
they tell me.
650
00:39:45,194 --> 00:39:47,121
What's this I hear about Soames
and young Bosinney?
651
00:39:48,201 --> 00:39:50,553
Well, Bosinney's got himself into a mess.
652
00:39:50,839 --> 00:39:52,277
I knew how it'd be.
653
00:39:52,755 --> 00:39:54,364
Soames warned him
time and time again.
654
00:39:54,739 --> 00:39:57,143
Well, he took no notice and Soames
lost his patience in the end.
655
00:39:57,464 --> 00:39:58,864
You can't blame him.
How much?- Eh?
656
00:39:59,957 --> 00:40:01,123
How much was he over?
- Three hundred and fifty.
657
00:40:01,823 --> 00:40:03,287
Soames did the right thing.
He paid all the bills...
658
00:40:03,966 --> 00:40:06,781
Soames is suing Bosinney for the amount.
He's a fool.
659
00:40:07,061 --> 00:40:08,064
You've no business
to say so.
660
00:40:08,896 --> 00:40:10,344
Who brought that fellow
into the family? Tell me that.
661
00:40:11,159 --> 00:40:12,990
He hasn't a penny, and now
he'll probably go bankrupt.
662
00:40:13,518 --> 00:40:15,978
Soames'll lose his money and his costs,
I shouldn't wonder.
663
00:40:16,078 --> 00:40:17,499
Serve him right.
664
00:40:17,596 --> 00:40:18,984
I don't know why he's worried
over a few 100 pounds.
665
00:40:19,184 --> 00:40:20,138
I thought he was a man of property.
666
00:40:20,764 --> 00:40:22,428
Whatever he is, that's not
the point. It isn't the money.
667
00:40:27,466 --> 00:40:28,935
I hope you know what you're at.
668
00:40:30,822 --> 00:40:33,085
You must manage
your own affairs, but if you take my advice,
669
00:40:33,788 --> 00:40:35,275
you'll settle out of court.
670
00:40:36,342 --> 00:40:40,082
I've come for my will.
671
00:40:40,101 --> 00:40:40,763
Your will?
672
00:40:40,963 --> 00:40:42,696
Are you going to change your arrangement?
- My concern.
673
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:45,003
I'm taking it
out of your hands.
674
00:40:45,706 --> 00:40:46,881
What?
- Yes.
675
00:40:47,337 --> 00:40:49,332
And I'm moving the business
of my companies away from this firm.
676
00:40:50,895 --> 00:40:52,159
Away from the family?
677
00:40:52,583 --> 00:40:54,862
High time. I need
an independent legal advisor.
678
00:40:56,590 --> 00:40:57,861
And let me add this, James.
679
00:40:58,485 --> 00:41:02,196
I have no use for a lawyer that brings legal
actions for the sake of petty revenge.
680
00:41:09,685 --> 00:41:12,036
Oh, hello.
681
00:41:12,627 --> 00:41:14,204
I didn't know you were here.
682
00:41:15,178 --> 00:41:16,258
Hello.
683
00:41:16,707 --> 00:41:18,977
How was Switzerland?
Mountainous.
684
00:41:22,073 --> 00:41:23,319
June.
685
00:41:23,967 --> 00:41:26,679
Yes?
- Don't you think you ought to give up?
686
00:41:27,222 --> 00:41:29,185
- Give up? Of course not.
687
00:41:32,076 --> 00:41:33,324
Anyway, give up what?
688
00:41:34,619 --> 00:41:36,579
Fighting battles
you can't win.
689
00:41:37,394 --> 00:41:38,746
I don't know what you mean.
I think you do.
690
00:41:39,354 --> 00:41:42,290
However, no matter.
It's not for me to advise you.
691
00:41:42,559 --> 00:41:44,197
With that, I agree.
692
00:41:44,872 --> 00:41:46,711
But I think I'll take a chance,
just this once.
693
00:41:47,814 --> 00:41:49,421
You're very young.
Your whole life ahead of you.
694
00:41:50,149 --> 00:41:51,894
It can be
full and happy.
695
00:41:52,500 --> 00:41:54,547
Don't wear yourself out
in a hopeless struggle.
696
00:41:55,875 --> 00:41:57,425
And it is hopeless,
believe me.
697
00:41:57,921 --> 00:41:59,937
I don't believe you.
Why should I?
698
00:42:00,865 --> 00:42:02,756
What do you know?
699
00:42:02,956 --> 00:42:06,071
Ah, Jo, thanks for coming.
700
00:42:07,524 --> 00:42:09,183
June, you're not going?
701
00:42:09,781 --> 00:42:11,453
I'm going to see
mrs. Smeech.
702
00:42:12,308 --> 00:42:13,917
Yes. Well, see you
for dinner?
703
00:42:14,332 --> 00:42:15,748
Yes, gran, of course.
704
00:42:21,453 --> 00:42:23,749
Mrs. Smeech, a worn-out old washerwoman
with bad legs,
705
00:42:24,693 --> 00:42:27,028
lives in Paddington,
one of June's lame ducks.
706
00:42:27,724 --> 00:42:30,555
She collects them.
What good it does, I can't tell.
707
00:42:31,455 --> 00:42:34,088
She has a warm heart,
and a fine hot temper to go with it.
708
00:42:35,369 --> 00:42:37,648
Yes. She takes after your mother.
709
00:42:38,702 --> 00:42:39,685
Well, Jo?
710
00:42:40,365 --> 00:42:42,300
Did you see young Bosinney?
- Yes, I saw him.
711
00:42:43,045 --> 00:42:45,717
He's a strange chap, a little
too bohemian for me.
712
00:42:46,356 --> 00:42:47,835
And for me too,
by a long chalk.
713
00:42:48,929 --> 00:42:50,705
Still...
that's in his nature.
714
00:42:51,592 --> 00:42:53,728
Who are we to criticize,
if it makes him a better artist?
715
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,976
That's your damned tolerance, Jo.
I've no patience with it.
716
00:42:57,583 --> 00:42:59,446
Well, he has his own virtues.
What?
717
00:42:59,950 --> 00:43:01,936
Different from ours maybe.
718
00:43:02,135 --> 00:43:03,881
He's as far removed from me
as I am from from uncle James.
719
00:43:04,641 --> 00:43:05,832
What virtues, may I ask?
720
00:43:06,489 --> 00:43:08,234
A keen intelligence, humor,
721
00:43:09,130 --> 00:43:10,585
complete dedication
to his work.
722
00:43:11,452 --> 00:43:13,831
Does that make him
the right husband for June?
723
00:43:14,815 --> 00:43:17,462
No, the worst possible.
Disastrous, I'd say.
724
00:43:18,806 --> 00:43:20,935
Besides, he's out of love with her.
725
00:43:22,205 --> 00:43:25,356
Did he say so?
No, never mentioned her name.
726
00:43:26,415 --> 00:43:27,494
I had an odd feeling
about that.
727
00:43:27,975 --> 00:43:30,287
Almost as if he'd forgotten
her existence.
728
00:43:30,894 --> 00:43:32,182
Damn the man. Damn him.
729
00:43:33,173 --> 00:43:35,211
How dare he come here,
make love to June,
730
00:43:35,411 --> 00:43:38,194
steal her affections and then
sneak off without a word?
731
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,846
Because he's obsessed, totally,
completely obsessed with someone else.
732
00:43:43,381 --> 00:43:44,972
It's like having an accident,falling under a train.
733
00:43:46,331 --> 00:43:47,425
He doesn't know where he is.
734
00:43:47,969 --> 00:43:49,584
That's fanciful.
735
00:43:49,784 --> 00:43:51,600
Was she mentioned?
736
00:43:52,818 --> 00:43:55,343
No. I shan't go into details,
but it's quite obvious.
737
00:43:56,510 --> 00:43:58,238
These two are lovers.
738
00:43:58,853 --> 00:44:01,109
What's to be done, Jo?
- What's to be done?
739
00:44:02,006 --> 00:44:03,773
How can we protect june?
740
00:44:04,324 --> 00:44:05,748
It'll all come out,
you know.
741
00:44:06,227 --> 00:44:09,184
Soames is vindictive.
And there's legal action coming up.
742
00:44:09,276 --> 00:44:10,262
Does june know about that?
743
00:44:10,715 --> 00:44:13,757
The whole family it's the talk
of Timothy's,confound the lot of them.
744
00:44:15,931 --> 00:44:18,818
But the odd thing, when I spoke to June about it,
745
00:44:19,950 --> 00:44:20,960
it seemed to brighten her up
746
00:44:21,718 --> 00:44:23,677
as though it might
do her some good.
747
00:44:24,262 --> 00:44:26,030
She'll have some mad scheme
in her head, no doubt.
748
00:44:27,189 --> 00:44:28,525
Well, I don't know.
749
00:44:29,124 --> 00:44:31,305
I don't know how
it's all going to end.
750
00:44:57,462 --> 00:44:59,415
Phil! Phil!
751
00:45:00,735 --> 00:45:02,212
If you're there, Phil,
let me in.
752
00:45:07,770 --> 00:45:09,161
Where are you, Phil?
753
00:45:10,581 --> 00:45:12,283
Where are you?
754
00:47:23,699 --> 00:47:25,314
Very pretty.
755
00:47:29,433 --> 00:47:33,160
I don't like that blouse.
It's a shapeless thing.
756
00:47:33,679 --> 00:47:34,967
Don't touch me.
Where have you been?
757
00:47:35,350 --> 00:47:36,701
Tell me at once.
Where have you been?
758
00:47:37,325 --> 00:47:39,229
In heaven,
out of this house.
759
00:47:48,354 --> 00:47:49,490
Soames, don't.
760
00:47:50,195 --> 00:47:51,482
Kill me if you like,
but don't.
761
00:47:52,137 --> 00:47:53,960
I'd rather you killed me.
Kill you? Why should I?
762
00:47:54,552 --> 00:47:55,817
There's no need
to kill you.
763
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:57,455
Anybody can have you.
Can't they?
764
00:47:57,771 --> 00:48:00,157
No...
can't they?!
765
00:48:00,510 --> 00:48:02,558
Well I can too!
766
00:48:02,922 --> 00:48:05,769
You're my wife.
You're my wife!
767
00:48:05,984 --> 00:48:08,723
No!
You're my wife!59049
