All language subtitles for Cotton Mary (1999) CD2 - TURKiSO -

She'd love to see you.
Come. Come. Come this way.

It's so hot.

See?

All English made.

Madam knows you brought
someone? Madam's right-hand man.

Tea, please.

- Shall I call madam?
- Get down, Rosie. I'll tell madam myself.

Master bedroom.

Oh, too soft.

Antique bed.

Lily, there's no soap
in here! Get up quickly!

Lily, is that you?
Lily?

Do I know you?

You remember Rosie, sir,
from the hospital?

I'll talk to madam later, sir,
but if you know of a job, sir?

Hello, sir.
Nice to meet you.

Mary auntie is helping
me to look for a job.

You see, she's from my
place. She's my niece.

Oh, what sort of a job
are you looking for?

Something useful.
I'm a bright girl.

Yes, I can see you are.

Mary, um, you wouldn't
get me some soap, would you?

Oh, yes, sir.
Come on, Rosie.

How about a translating job? Nothing
too complicated. I'd pay by the hour.

Anything you'd
be interested in?

Oh, yes, sir.

Mary? Mary?

Mary? Mary?

Come on, Lily. Come and
join in with the play.

They need everyone they
can get. Oh, really?

From what I could see, there was
plenty of interest the other day.

Happy gardening.

So hot and
she's gardening?

Madam, this is
my Rosie, madam.

She's from
Tenga Seri only.

I told her, madam, that you might
know of possibility for job, madam.

Oh, not now, Mary.

She's my sister's
child, madam.

She's my responsibility.
That will be all, Mary!

I said-
How do you do?

Excuse me, madam.

I think the child has
to be changed. Well-

Surely you should
be doing that, Mary.

It's not
Abraham's job.

Never mind.
They're all like that.

Mmm.

What's Mary
cooking for dinner?

Mary cooking,
Mary cooking.

- What's wrong?
- Nothing is wrong, madam. Nothing.

I can't work
like this, madam.

I'd better go. You can get
someone else to feed your baby.

Well, why are you upset?
What's the matter?

Nothing, madam!
Nothing!

Get- Get this man
to look after your child.

- What are you saying about the baby?
- You talk to me like that.

Outside?
We're just poor people, madam.

It's not nice
to talk like that!

Oh, for goodness sake. I didn't
mean anything towards you.

You know that I couldn't
do without you.

He's your family servant.
Let him look after you.

You can't go.
You can't.

What would I do
without you? Please.

Mary. Please.

Abraham?

Abraham?
Hey!

I'm in charge here.
You ask for me.

Show me your fish.

The other one.

And we always have
to take the ferry there,

because it's on the other
side of the canal.

I don't like to go there any more,
but she forces me. Theresa!

- Mummy's calling you.
- Oh, I thought Mummy went out.

She's there!
Upstairs. Go and see.

Madam know she is sitting
with you like this, huh?

What are you starting
all the time with me?

This is not your place.
Please go out!

I asked you, does madam
know? There is nothing.

She brings her work and
does. I'm going to tell madam.

I know you, Abraham.
I know your butler type.

All you men
are like this only.

Just because you work for madam,
you think you can do all this?

Don't start trouble.
Be careful.

Oh, showing
your legs and all!

I'll show you.
Let me show you, huh?

Rosie!
Afternoon, Ma.

I've brought important
papers for master.

He hired me,
you know, Auntie.

Master hired you?
Oh, yes.

For translating work. What
kind of translating work?

He's making an article-
health systems.

What health system? Rich people's
health? Poor people's health?

I have
to travel with master.

We have to take private
boat, you know? What?

Master told you that?
Oh, yes.

He said- He said
he wants full cooperation.

Madam won't like it. She doesn't
like it at all. I like it!

If you act up, Rosie,
you'll be out!

Master won't stand
for any cheeky nonsense.

Anyway, master is busy.
He can't see you.

You know, Rosie? You
shouldn't bother him like this.

Bother?
Bother? Bother?

You're bothered, Mary.
Cheeky.

- Powder, madam.
- Powder.

Eh, some more soap also. Soap
- Soap?

We just got soap.
Where did it go?

Fresh tea.
Thank you, Abraham.

What's for dinner, madam? In a minute.

Butter, madam.

Please, madam.
I don't like to say, but...

Theresa's spending too much
time with that man, madam.

What do you mean?

She's all the time in the
servants' quarters, madam!

It's not nice!
Young girl and all?

And madam, too many things
are missing also. What things?

From the larder, madam.

So many things. Too
much butter, jam, lotion.

Lots of things.
I can't say how much.

I don't understand. I've known Abraham
and his family since I was a child.

Yes, madam.

Have you said anything
to him directly?

No, madam.
I can't say!

He'll be fighting with me!

Oh, I'll take him, madam.
I've got it.

She's so hungry.

Oh, poor baby, madam.

I have her.

Madam, that-
that Abraham man,

he doesn't like it
when I go into the larder.

The baba needs
powder, soap and all.

I feel so shy, madam. His hand
is all the time inside that room.

Well, take my keys
then. Yes. Oh, no, madam.

Your house keys and all!
Yes, go on. Take them.

No, no, no, madam!

Thank you, madam.
Thank you.

Leave it, Ma!

You'll
drive him away!

You'll
have nothing!

Go and lie down. What do
you know about anything?

What do I know?

I know!

I had everything
when I was your age.

You have one chance and
you're going to spoil it...

and end up
with nothing!

You think you're all alone,
you can do whatever you like?

Jealous?

Where are you going?

The article is about rich people's
health or poor people's health?

All people's health.
Personal health.

Heart.
Lungs.

Stomach.
Lungs.

Teacher's pet.

Heart.
Teacher's pet.

- Heart is for-
- Pumping blood.

Very nice.

Lungs are for-
Who can tell me?

Theresa,
you must be knowing.

You breathe in the air and the
lungs swell up like balloons.

Very good.
Heart, lungs, stomach.

Heart. Lungs. Stomach.

Thank you, teacher.

Thank you, children.

What happened?
Look at the time!

What about school?

I'm not going to school today.
I don't feel well.

Can you call Mummy?
I want to see her.

Stomach pain?
I told you.

See, what a dirty fellow.
He's making everybody sick.

Whole household
is suffering.

Madam's calling you.

Good morning, madam.
Ah, Abraham.

Theresa's says she's
not feeling very well,

and Mary thinks she might
have had some bad food.

Hope it wasn't anything
from this house.

No, madam. Everything is boiled
here. The kitchen is clean.

Shall I make some tea
for Theresa?

Nice, milky tea?
Yes, why don't you?

Yes, madam.

Look here!
I'll make the tea.

Look at this! Ayah, what
kind of business is this?

What do you want of me? You're
after me since the beginning.

What is this?
Look here!

Everybody's going
to get sick with this.

All the cutlery, huh?

Each and every one
with dirty marks!

I wash this cutlery every day.
Twice, three times a day.

Then I dry, then
I keep it in the cupboard.

Every day since 25 years,
and you say this is dirty?

Madam, see what this man is
doing? What is going on here?

Uh-
What's wrong?

Abraham didn't do
anything. Nothing's wrong.

God is watching you,
Abraham.

I said, "Oh, my God. She cut his hair. "

"Really? She did it?"

"Yes, a small piece of hair.
And she tied it to a tree. "

"Where did she tie it?"

"Near the Periyar River. "

"And why did she do it?"

"Oh, yes. To drive him mad. Abraham. "

"Which Abraham?"

"First Abraham. "

"And the wind from the river,
the Periyar River,

"was blowing
his hair on the tree.

"And blowing and blowing.

Until
he became mad, mad. "

Mary, what are you going
on about? Mad, mad, mad.

Mary,
will you answer me?

Nothing, madam.

It's just a story that
these hilly people told me.

Anyway,
he is a dirty.

He uses same toilet hand
for everything.

He doesn't have our
cleaning standards, madam!

How can I do my job
with this going on?

If the child get sick, madam,
your doctor told you only.

Any sickness
and the baby will go.

Yes, I know.
And this child,

she goes and sits with him
in the servants' quarters.

After hours, madam.
What kind of thing is that?

What are people going to say?
This is too bad. All right.

Please. Please. Please,
madam. Mummy, it's not Abraham.

Abraham, I think you should get on
with your work. He didn't do anything.

Theresa is sick and you
shouldn't play with her.

Come on, Theresa.

Yes, madam.

- What time is it?
- It's lunchtime, darling.

Slept so badly.

Been lying awake worrying
about everything.

You came back so late!

The rehearsals.
We had a few drinks.

John, we never get a chance
to talk about anything.

I need to talk to you.
I have a meeting, Lily.

Can't be late.

John, maybe we should
get back to England.

Take baby
to a proper doctor.

We could get a flat in
London. We could... try again.

Why don't you
rearrange things?

Throw out some
of your parents' stuff.

You know, make the house
look more like our old place.

John,
I'm worried about Abraham.

Mary's been saying
dreadful things about him.

Huh? I don't know what to do.

What?
Of course I love you.

We'll have
a long talk tonight.

No, thank you.

Abraham, I-
Madam?

Master's very worried,
and so am I. Madam?

There have been things missing
from the house, and it's not clean.

And I-I don't think
I can keep you any more.

But madam, I have not stolen even
a spoon of sugar from this house.

Of course I'll give you
excellent references.

I don't think
you understand.

I can't can't have the house
in this sort of poor state.

She's against me
from the beginning, madam.

Thank you, Abraham. I can't
discuss this. I'm sorry.

I'll have your chits
and things sent home.

But madam,
this is my home.

I've had this uniform
altered for you.

Important job,
you know?

No drinking, hmm?

You drunken
good-for-nothing-

What were you doing outside,
huh? Pulling up madam's garden?

I told you
to cut some flowers.

All flowers are beautiful. Come.

This is for you.
Now sit down.

After cleaning, you go into
the garden and cut some flowers.

Small, small purple ones
for master's bedside?

Don't throw them out.

You know
right hand serving?

I know right hand, left hand,

front hand, back hand
- Not so much talking.

Come only
when madam calls you.

For tonight, master needs double
whisky soda inside. You'll remember?

Double whisky.
No mistakes, understand?

Morning. Could I have
breakfast as soon as possible?

- I'm in a bit of a rush.
- Coming, master. Coming. Coming.

Shh-shh-shh.

Come on.
Shhh.

Come on.
It's okay. It's okay.

It's okay. It's okay.
Shh-shh-shh.

That's it.

Oh, I'll take her,
master.

I'll take her.
Thank you, Mary.

Come on.

Oh, I'll give you your
breakfast, master, please.

Please eat
your breakfast.

It's okay, Mary.
I can manage. Thank you.

Madam is coming
on Wednesday.

In two weeks...
at 4:00.

And she always likes
to have tea outside.

Will you keep your mind on
the job, on the child? Uh.

Mattie, did you hear?
Madam is coming. Yes.

Sister, does she like
fowl or ham?

Fowl. Why are you so
worked up about madam?

No use taking so much trouble.
Just give her a cup of tea.

No. Madam must have
a party.

I'm going to pull out
some tablecloths and-

Mira. Come.

You must take out some
good chairs for madam, hmm?

What shall I wear?

I think I'll wear
my maroon dress.

Mattie, do you think she
will like my maroon dress?

She's going to like it.
She's going to love it.

You're Mattie's princess,
my darling.

You're Mattie's queen.

Are you going
to cut your hair?

Go on!
Go to school!

Always sneaking and
peeking, here and there.

You know what's going to
happen? Snake is going to come,

and it's
going to bite you!

Dress is ready. I'll take
it. I'm going upstairs.

You do your duty, man.

I'm going to take the child
out for the afternoon.

Cousin, cousin doesn't mean you
don't have to do your job, no.

Hello, Cotton Mary.
Good morning. Good morning.

You look very nice today.

This is special tongue
for you.

Very hard to get it.

You don't want?
Very hard to get it.

This is master's favorite,
yeah? This and fish curry.

Come on! Hurry up!
I haven't got all day.

I want Minnie's Hair Salon.
Straight ahead, madam.

Are you looking out for someone? Minnie.

Frieda,
look who's here.

Trim, please.

Something like this.
One minute, please.

Isn't she wearing
one of Lily's dresses?

My dear! And her
white leather shoes.

Just extraordinary!
Poor Lily.

I don't know if this color's
going to suit me.

Excuse me. Oh, sorry, I
think I have got the wrong-

No, madam, This is the right
place. Please, take your seat.

She's not a normal ayah.
I don't know who she is.

Better give her a chair. You know?

Just a minute, please.
Have a seat.

I have a lunch appointment.
Don't take too long, miss.

Some coffee or tea for
you? Coffee. Two sugar.

Dear Lily. We really must
call in and see her more often.

And see that she's all right.
She's on her own far too often.

John is gallivanting around chasing rogue
elephants and goodness knows what else.

Chasing what?
Elephants, dear.

Your time's up, Mrs. Smyth. Good.

I want it short.

Yes. I think
it will suit you well.

Excuse me.

Now put the gum
over here. Yes.

Lift and then press it.

Yes, very good.

Oh, I love this music.

Mattie,
you're so sweet.

And there you go. Give this bit
to auntie and leave this here.

Come fast!

Ah! Careful my dress!
Be careful of her dress!

You give this to me later,
and I'll iron it out for you.

Oh, sticky toffee!
Will madam like it?

Mmm! Yeah, madam will love
it! Will madam like it?

It's delicious! Go and
give it back. And come back.

You heard what they got up to
at the club last week?

Does her husband know?
Well, how could he not?

I heard she took a boat to Bombay and
started up some sort of publishing.

I wouldn't have thought
she needed to.

There's a terrible smell
coming from over there.

It's coming from the baby
carriage. It smells quite rancid.

- What smells? Who is she?
- Mary! Cotton Mary!

- Who wants to know?
- Would you tell her to lower her voice?

Hey,
everyone has to talk.

You can't shut me up.

My father was an officer in the
British regiment. What's the difference?

Just because I'm black you think
you can talk to me like this? Hey?

Here, you want to smell
it? Take it! Take it!

Take it away! Take it! Smell
it! You want to smell, huh?

You also want to smell it?
You want to see?

Go on! Go on!
Go on!

Oh, that's vile. Good
God, get rid of it!

Now you smell it also.
It's all right, Gladys.

I need
some water.

Gladys, calm down.
She's going now.

She's gone too far.
This is simply disgusting.

See?
No smell is coming now.

Oh, Frieda, you ever seen
such a scene? Oh, dear.

Theresa, what are you doing
here? Why aren't you at school?

Darling, what's the matter?
Why are you crying? What is it?

You just want her to stay
here because of the baby.

All you care about is the
baby. Oh, that's not true.

- I care about you too.
- You can't even feed her.

You don't even care if she
takes us to her sister's house.

Where?
Where does she take you?

Those horrible old ladies
just staring at me.

And her sister's
in a wheelchair.

Who?
Who's in the wheelchair?

Mary's sister. She's
the one feeding the baby.

Darling, Mummy
couldn't feed the baby.

I tried, but I couldn't, and
so, I asked Mary to help me.

- The baby was very sick.
- What about Abraham?

Why can't
Abraham come back?

Abraham didn't do anything. You
should never have sacked him.

No.
I know you're right.

You're right.
I'm sorry, darling.

I'm sorry.

He was my friend. Mm.

This was
his house too.

I know
you're right.

Daddy's gone.

And now
Abraham's gone too.

It's all
your fault.

Where are we,
Mummy?

I haven't been here
since I was a girl.

This is where Abraham lives. Abraham!

Hurry, Mummy!

Abraham?

Is Abraham here?

Abraham is not
living here since long time.

I thought this was
his mother's house.

- She used to have all her things here.
- Mother is dead.

Abraham is living
in that English house.

Not coming here.

Right.

Thank you.

Come along,
darling.

We'll have to go.

Blossom. My child,
nobody is coming.

Can I take
you inside, please?

Those people are usually so punctual.

Madam is coming! Yeah? Go,
go, go. Get the flag. Go.

Hold my hand, Mattie.
I'm so nervous.

Wave the flag!
Wave the flag!

Sister,
what a beautiful dress!

Thank you!
Thank you all very much.

Please! Eat!

Eat and enjoy yourselves.

Let's begin the feast!

What? Who's going
to wait for madam, huh?

Raise your hands!

No!
No one eats!

Before, you know, I had
so many other children.

Remember?

Madam always
came to see me.

I don't know why.
Why so many weeks this-

this madam
is not coming.

I'm- I'm taking much care and
I- I still didn't get nothing.

What nothing? Madam sent
so many beautiful things.

You know,
people are asking me,

"Who's the mother?
What does she look like?

"This madam,
whose child is this?

This child who comes
here every day?"

What do you care
what people say?

You do your job
and that's all, no?

She wants something
from madam, like what?

It's not enough
that I bring Baba here?

She wants
something more, huh?

What more?

These are modern times, sister.

Mr. Gandhi
come and gone!

How long are you going
to wait for madam?

Huh?

Sister, God is with us
in this place.

We may be poor, but
we have our self-respect.

What you want?
Money?

Here, here, here. Take it! Give it back!

Give it back!
Give it back!

I'm not a prostitute to take
money from you. You understand?

Mary, go!

Go and look
for your master.

See what he does
to your Rosie.

See which times
have changed!

Open your eyes, sister!
Open your eyes!

Who dares to talk about
my master like this?

A man like
my own father?

Who are you,

Anglo-Indian thing?

Just a crippled
Anglo-Indian thing...

worth nothing!

And you want madam to come?
Just so she can see...

what you are-
a half-caste girl...

with no legs!

Take this!
Take this!

Where's your father?
Your father?

You have no father.

All your talk about this
regiment, that regiment.

You have a father
in the British army?

Your father
was no more...

than a poor boy shining
British shoes!

And you?
Who are you?

You are no more than a chi-chi!
A half-chat! A blackie-white!

Jesus, it's Mary!

Mary has a sister in the
almshouse. My Blossom auntie.

Oh.

Madam's
milk was no good.

So my Blossom auntie's
feeding Baba.

Baba takes
her milk over there.

What are
you talking about?

Milk.

Get off!

What's wrong?
What is it?

Johnny?

What's wrong?

Rosie!
Is she coming up here?

Rosie! Rosie!
It's Cotton Mary!

I want to see you!

Come out!

Master!
Master!

Master!

Rosie!

Rosie, Rosie.
It's Cotton Mary.

What have
you done, Rosie?

Come out!
I want to talk to you!

God is with me, Rosie!

Poor Mary doesn't
know what to say.

My God! Oh, Rosie!

She thinks we should
all keep quiet.

"Listen to the master.
Say your prayers, Rosie.

Don't be cheeky, Rosie.
Don't spoil your good name. "

You want to check me now?
Come, check me now. See.

No! No! I can do anything!
I can do anything!

No one cares any more.
Not even your precious master.

What the hell
is going on?

Where's the baby?
With Mary. Why?

Why didn't you tell me you were
sending her to some woman on the street?

- What do you mean?
- You've handed the baby over...

to be fed by some sort of bloody
half-breed in an almshouse!

How dare you
question me like this?

It was the only hope I
had. Don't be ridiculous.

Look, I couldn't feed her!
Don't you understand that?

You could've asked friends!
You could've asked the doctor!

You wouldn't even speak
with the doctor!

You've neglected
the children, Lily.

Is that what they're
saying about me at the club?

What else
do they say about me?

Do they talk about
all your trips around India?

Why you stay away
for so long?

It's not India, Lily.
You know that, don't you?

It's not India.

All right. Come on.
Let's get you to bed.

Come on.
It's late.

Oh, Baba.

Do anything you want.

Master is gone.

Madam is in her bedroom... sleeping.

No one to care, man.

Is that child sick?

She's fine. She'll just
have to get used to it now.

Oh, madam. What do
you think you're doing?

Where have you been? You
realize it's already past 10:00.

And why is she coughing?
Is she sick?

I'm sick now, madam.

Leave me.

We are not your servants
all the time.

- India is a free country now.
- Like to have a drink, madam?

He's drunk.
Get him out of here!

Don't take any notice! She likes
to shout at servants this way!

They're all like that.
He acts like a big man.

British "yes, sir-no, sir" man.

Shoes must be shined.
Shirts must be nicely pressed.

And, oh, yes, special
breakfast. And what?

He goes to the bed
with that thing!

No self-respect!
Nothing!

Oh, chi-chi, chi-chi,
chi-chi.

Ohh.

Don't stand
on one leg, girl,

or the boys will think
you're asking for it.

- What are you talking about?
- Oh. You don't know anything.

Eyes are closed all the time.

Very good. Keep your
eyes closed, darling.

You'll sleep well, sweetheart.
Better not to see.

- What have you got around your neck?
- You gave it to me, madam.

You took it, didn't you?
You stole it from me!

Look at you. Everything
you're wearing is mine.

What? You throw things away
and then you come and ask me?

Open your eyes. Better go
and look for your husband.

Better find him first.

I want you to leave.
Now.

I want you to get all your
things, and get out of here!

I'll go, madam.
You can stay here alone.

I'm going now, madam.
I'm going.

And you too!
Get out of here!

Go on!
Let's go!

Spying, eh? What you
going to do? Tell Johnny?

Theresa.

Shhh.

She looks
like a mad woman.

What a shame.

Give me a sip.
My throat is so dry.

Take some more.

Oh, look at her. How filthy
she is. Oh, what happened?

Oh, God. Poor thing. Poor Mary. How sad.

She's so dirty. We could have
told her this would happen.

How sad to see her
like this.

Sister, you can
put on a fresh dress.

One of mine will do. Oh,
yes, she's looking so filthy.

She needs to get out
of this dress immediately.

Auntie, please come.
Mattie, let's give her a bath.

Come on, let's take her
inside. Soap and water, please.

Come on.

And she can sleep there.

Good. Put the mat there.
Let her rest.

Mary. Here.
Sit here.

And Mira, fresh soap
and water in the bath.

What do you expect
of the English?

They pick you up
and drop you.

She was not like
our church madam.

They would
never act like that!

Ungrateful wretch.

Very good, Mali. Put them
in the back of the car.

Oh, except
the little one.

Nanu, the little white one
I'd like with me.

Theresa, if you want to take
this, look after it yourself.

- I've got too much to carry.
- Now, you do understand, don't you, darling.

Daddy has to stay and do
some more work for his job.

But Mummy's going to write to me and
tell me all about your new school.

And you'll be able to see
your old friends again.

And you'll be back
before you know it.

Will you stay here at
the house? Yes, of course.

And the things in your room will be
where you left them when you return.

Everything
will be the same again.

Okay?
Okay.

And when you come back,
the baby will be much better,

and we can all go for a long trip
to the beach. Come on, Theresa.

We don't want
to be late now.

Nearly slipped.

Do take care.
Bye.

Come on,
in you go.

Bye, John.
Bye.

You mustn't
stand like that.

Do you want to be
like some village girl?

See what happened to that
Dorothy DeCosta's child?

You'll get one wallop
and you'll be out.

Come here.
Come here.

Sit down.

Say your prayers. Our
Father, Our Father,

- who art in heaven,
- who art in heaven,

hallowed be Thy name.
Hallowed be Thy name.

- Thy kingdom come- - Thy kingdom
come- Did madam have a nice house?

- Was it a big house?
- You keep your mind on the job.

Otherwise, how will you
get out of this place?

Keep your mind
on the job.

- Give us this day...
- Give us this day...

our daily bread...
our daily bread...

and forgive us
our trespasses,

and forgive us
our trespasses,

as we forgive those...
as we forgive those...

that trespass against us.

That trespass
against us.

And lead us not...
And lead us not...

into temptation,
into temptation,

but deliver us from evil,

for Thine is the kingdom-
