00:42:01I am hungry for her but I don't understand why do you make me want to live?
00:42:10what do you mean? suppose you took this happiness away when I wasn't looking
00:42:19and lose my own I'm not used to happiness makes me afraid but I'm here
00:42:26but I'm here
00:42:35I'm not afraid but I'm here
00:42:42the six weeks I've been here could be a year
00:42:51I feel like I'm floating in an opium dream
00:42:58this climate
00:43:00now it rains everyday at the same time like clockwork
00:43:07that way everybody knows how long they can stay in bed
00:43:09you'll be the death of me
00:43:16Josephine spent most of her life in bed
00:43:18she came from Martinique like my mother and she became empress of all France
00:43:25close your eyes
00:43:28and she became empress of all France

00:44:01well, you could be like me
00:44:02firch welch
00:44:04a lil irish
00:44:06a lil pirate
00:44:08my lil outcast
00:44:10Oh, my dear brother, did you plan it together?
00:44:16Richard Mason, the fool, he knew.
00:44:20And my wife, how little I really knew of her.
00:44:40And my wife, how little I really knew of her, how little I really knew of her, how little I really knew of her.
00:45:10And my wife, how little I really knew of her.
00:45:40Come and dance.
00:46:01No, thank you.
00:47:04happened to your mother? There was a fire. You know about the fire? Yes. She died then.
00:47:17I'm sorry. I won't bring it up again. I promise. Never make promises. What did you say?
00:47:27Never make promises. Why? Then they'll never be broken.
00:47:34She will look you in the eye and tell you lies.
00:48:04I'm sorry.
00:48:20Anyway, you'll stay till the weekend, won't you?
00:48:39The governor's having a small surrey on Saturday.
00:48:42You know, it's a pity Antoinette didn't come.
00:48:45Her mother was a beautiful dancer.
00:48:48That's something I've been meaning to ask you about.
00:48:50Whatever happened to her mother?
00:48:51Nettie?
00:48:52Oh, she died shortly after the fire.
00:48:55She was very badly burned trying to save her little boy.
00:48:58Now, I never knew that Antoinette had a brother.
00:49:03Well, she never talks of him, of course, having lost him like that.
00:49:10Off to England, probably.
00:49:13I rather envy them.
00:50:25I believe in it completely.
00:50:26Antoinette obviously prefers the open air to our stuffy little society down here in Spanish town.
00:50:32She'd be a most welcome addition to our dances, but of course she isn't English, is she?
00:50:35She might feel a little left out.
00:50:37Oh, I don't know.
00:50:38I think you'll find many of the best dances were invented by the French.
00:50:42Yes.
00:50:43Come, Edward.
00:50:44We must do our duty by the wallflowers.
00:51:15Apparently they had snow at home at Noel.
00:51:32It amuses me how all of you here talk of England as home.
00:51:38Have you ever actually been there?
00:51:40No, not yet.
00:51:42Mummy plans to take me next year.
00:51:45She hopes to present me at court, if we can afford it.
00:51:49Sadly, our situation's not what it was.
00:51:52But surely as you were born in this country, this is your home.
00:51:56Certainly not, Mr. Rochester.
00:51:58Even in the good times, it was a fit place for a lady.
00:52:01You're supposed to lead.
00:52:07One, two, three, you.
00:52:12How can you be a gentleman when you smell like a horse?
00:52:15Benbow.
00:52:16Benbow.
00:52:18Rub him down well, will you?
00:52:20I've ridden him hard.
00:52:21It's good to be back.
00:52:23Good afternoon, sir.
00:52:24Good afternoon, Hilda.
00:52:25How is your journey, sir?
00:52:26Very good, thank you.
00:52:28Ladies?
00:52:29Finish quickly and go tell Christophine I want her.
00:52:53Christophine is leaving.
00:52:56Leaving?
00:52:57Christophine don't like this sweet honeymoon house no more.
00:53:01And your husband look like he sees zombie.
00:53:05Maybe he don't like honeymoon house no more either.
00:53:11No!
00:53:12I'll eat you back, my cat.
00:53:14I'll eat you back.
00:53:15For God's sake, Edwinette.
00:53:19Go away, child.
00:53:20You call her a child.
00:53:22She's older than the devil and more cruel.
00:53:25That's Christophine.
00:53:26Yes, master.
00:53:27It's past midday.
00:53:35The white cockroach to marry, the white cockroach to buy English mom.
00:53:42The white cockroach to marry, the white cockroach to buy English mom.
00:53:48You're not leaving.
00:53:49I am.
00:53:50And what about me?
00:53:51Get up, girl, and dress yourself.
00:53:53Woman must have spunks to live in this world.
00:53:55The young master don't like me, the young master don't like me, and perhaps I don't like him.
00:54:00If I stay, I just bring trouble and bone of contention to your house.
00:54:04Then go.
00:54:05Then go.
00:54:08Emily.
00:54:10Smile like that once more.
00:54:11Just once more.
00:54:13And I'll mash your face like I'm mashed planting.
00:54:16You hear me?
00:54:17And I give you bellyache like you never see bellyache.
00:54:21Answer me, girl!
00:54:21Yes, Christophine.
00:54:27Now, Putus, you get yourself out of bed.
00:54:30Did you hear what the girl was singing?
00:54:36White cockroach.
00:54:38That's me.
00:54:39That's why they call all of us who were here before their own people sold them to the slave
00:54:43traders.
00:54:46Why are you looking at me like that?
00:54:49Get out.
00:54:51I want to get dressed.
00:54:55I want to get dressed for dinner.
00:54:56I want to get dressed for dinner.
00:55:00Why did you go away without telling me?
00:55:17Hello.
00:55:20Nettie.
00:55:22That was my mother's name.
00:55:24It suits you.
00:55:27Oh, sit with me.
00:55:30I'm sorry, I haven't been myself lately.
00:55:45This country is still so strange to me.
00:55:50Sometimes I feel as though I may lose myself in it.
00:55:53You'll go back to England, won't you?
00:56:08I feel like a walk in the garden.
00:56:09I can hardly hear the insects now.
00:56:28Perhaps I am getting used to everything after all.
00:56:31Let's toast again to happiness.
00:56:38Let's toast again to happiness.
00:56:38Perhaps.
00:57:04I'm sorry.
00:57:05I haven't told you.
00:57:05I'm sorry.
00:57:06I'm sorry.
00:57:06Sorry sir, the mistress is going to pay a visit. She'll be back tonight. She'll make up her mind in a hurry and she's gone.
00:57:36Do you know this man?
00:57:47Yes, I know Daniel.
00:57:50Why does he keep writing to me?
00:57:51He doesn't tell you that. He writes you two letters and he doesn't say why.
00:57:55Is his name really Cosway?
00:57:59Some people say yes, some people say no.
00:58:03Some people say there are many people called Cosway. They are related.
00:58:09But I don't know about that.
00:58:14You may go.
00:58:18I am sorry for you.
00:58:19What?
00:58:20I say not master.
00:58:22You ask me a hard thing. I tell you a hard thing. Pack up and go. When a man don't love you, more you try, more he hate you.
00:58:35A rich girl like you, pick up your skirt and walk out. Do it and he come after you.
00:58:41He wouldn't come after me.
00:58:43And I'm not rich. Everything I had belongs to him. That's English law.
00:58:47Law?
00:58:48The mason boy do it.
00:58:51Him worse than Satan self.
00:58:54How he turns to you.
00:58:55I'm rich田 and Dudleyu
00:58:59I
00:59:03I
00:59:22Daniel Cosway?
00:59:33Yes, sir.
00:59:36Why did you ignore my message to stop writing to me?
00:59:39Many people say things behind your back.
00:59:42I don't care what people say behind my back.
00:59:45But you do, sir.
00:59:47Mind very much.
00:59:49They make monkey out of you.
00:59:50I mind.
00:59:51You're a troublemaker, Daniel Cosway.
00:59:53If that's your real name.
00:59:55Same name as your wife.
00:59:57Same father.
00:59:59Oh, yes, sir.
01:00:00Everything I say is true.
01:00:04Ask that devil, Richard Mason, three questions.
01:00:09Is your wife's mother a lunatic?
01:00:13Was her brother a born imbecile?
01:00:16And is your wife going the same way as her mother?
01:00:18Is her mother alive?
01:00:23Last I hear, she live in a house on the hill, taking in any man who asks.
01:00:29Fine English gentleman like you don't want to touch a little yellow rat like me, huh?
01:00:48You believe me, but you want everything quiet like the English do, all right.
01:00:53But if I keep my mouth shut, it seems like you owe me something.
01:00:58What's 500 pounds to you?
01:01:00All right, get back to your wife's house, my sister's house.
01:01:11You will see what I can do and give her my love.
01:01:16You are not the first to kiss her pretty face.
01:01:20You knew what I wanted as soon as you saw me.
01:01:23Push up.
01:01:26If a man don't love you, I can't make him.
01:01:28Yes, you can.
01:01:29You can make people love or hate or die.
01:01:32You believe that Tintin story about Obia?
01:01:34You know, if he would come to me just once more, I'd make him love me again.
01:01:45Prutus.
01:01:47Obia is too strong for a white man.
01:01:51It would only cause big trouble.
01:01:53Plenty of people tell your husband's stories about you and your mother.
01:02:00And they don't know what to believe.
01:02:03Cool him.
01:02:04Calm him.
01:02:06Tell him all that happened, but don't cry.
01:02:09Crying's no good with him.
01:02:11He won't believe me.
01:02:23I'll do what you ask me, but only if you talk to him first.
01:02:46I'll do what you ask me, but only if you talk to him first.
01:02:53You want to know about my mother because of what Daniel tells you.
01:03:02She wasn't mad.
01:03:04She was lonely.
01:03:06That can be a kind of madness.
01:03:10After the fire, my stepfather bought a house
01:03:12and hired someone to look after her.
01:03:17And then he forgot her.
01:03:19Is she still alive?
01:03:23She died not long ago.
01:03:27You told me she died after the fire.
01:03:32You lied!
01:03:33Because they told me to say so.
01:03:36And it's true.
01:03:39There are always two deaths.
01:03:42The real one and the one people see.
01:03:44Have a drink.
01:03:52Have a drink.
01:03:52The real one and the other people see.
01:03:52The real one and the other people see.

01:04:00The real one and the other people see.
01:04:01The real one and the other people see.
01:04:02The real one and the other people see.
01:04:03The real one and the other people see.
01:04:04The real one and the other people see.
01:04:05The real one and the other people see.
01:04:06The real one and the other people see.
01:04:07The real one and the other people see.
01:04:08The real one and the other people see.
01:04:09The real one and the other people see.
01:04:10The real one and the other people see.
01:04:11Let's go.
01:04:12Let's go.
01:04:13I've tried to make you understand, but not.
01:04:43Nothing's changed, has it?
01:04:49Where did you go this morning?
01:04:54To see Christophine.
01:04:59To ask her what to do?
01:05:02She told me to leave you.
01:05:06Don't you think that might be the best thing?
01:05:09If one of us went away for a while.
01:05:16Your mouth is colder than my head.
01:05:31Your mouth is colder than my head.
01:06:01Tell me I didn't mean it when I said one of us should leave.
01:06:06I don't want that.
01:06:19I don't want that.
01:06:22We're letting ghosts trouble us.
01:06:25We can be happy, I know we can.
01:06:27I swear, before I drank I longed to bury my face in her hair as I used to do.
01:06:53She need not have done what she did to me.
01:06:56I'll always swear that.
01:06:59She need not have done it.
01:07:26She need not have done it.
01:07:28She should be loved.
01:07:31She can be I'm not a young girl that has been a young girl.
01:07:36I know I will never forget.
01:09:11I am sorry for you.
01:09:33Is that the only song you know?
01:09:47I am sorry for you.
01:10:17I am sorry for you.
01:10:24Something out.
01:10:54I am sorry for you.
01:11:24This came from England.
01:11:54My brother has been killed in a riding accident.
01:12:11It means the family estate belongs to me.
01:12:21No.
01:12:28No more.
01:12:30I will find Christophine.
01:12:40I rang the bell because I was thirsty.
01:12:47Can no one hear?
01:12:49And who are you to tell me what to do?
01:12:50Christophine?
01:12:51Me now!
01:12:52I won't have that woman in my house!
01:12:54So it's your house now, is it?
01:12:56I thought you liked the black people, but no, you like the light brown girls better, don't
01:13:00you?
01:13:01You blame the old planters, but you do the same thing.
01:13:04Slavery was not a matter of liking or disliking.
01:13:07It was a question of justice.
01:13:09Justice?
01:13:10My mother whom you all talk about.
01:13:13What justice did she have?
01:13:15Mother.
01:13:16What in God's name are you talking about?
01:13:21Nettie!
01:13:23Nettie's not my name.
01:13:25She's trying to turn me into someone else.
01:13:28That's Obia!
01:13:31I love this place.
01:13:32I've spoiled it.
01:13:33And I hate it now.
01:13:34Like I hate you.
01:13:35And before I die, I'll show you how much I hate you.
01:13:52Don't you love me at all?
01:13:58No, I do not.
01:13:59Not at this moment.
01:14:02Not at this moment.
01:14:07Not at this moment.
01:14:10That's how you are.
01:14:12A stone!
01:14:13Serves me right.
01:14:14Aunt Cora told me all about you.
01:14:16All about you and how your daddy gives everything to your brother.
01:14:20Oh, for God's sake, Andrelate, shut up and go back to bed!
01:14:23I bought you!
01:14:24I bought you!
01:14:26Ow!
01:14:27Ow!
01:14:28Ow!
01:14:29Ow!
01:14:30Touch me once.
01:14:31You will soon see if I'm a dumb coward like you are.
01:14:34Traitor!
01:14:35Furnicator!
01:14:36Furnicator!
01:14:37You, hush up.
01:14:38And don't cry.
01:14:39Crying's no good with him.
01:14:40I told you before.
01:14:41Why you don't take that girl somewhere else?
01:14:42Why you do that in this place?
01:14:43Why you do that in this place?
01:14:44You want her to hear you!
01:14:46So, my wife ran off to tell you, did she?
01:14:47I might have known.
01:14:48She'd tell me nothing.
01:14:49She's a creole girl.
01:14:50She has the sun in her.
01:14:51She has more pride than you.
01:14:52She has more pride than you.
01:14:53She's no good with him.
01:14:54She's no good with him.
01:14:55I told you before.
01:14:56Why you don't take that girl somewhere else?
01:14:57Why you do that in this place?
01:14:58Why you do that in this place?
01:14:59You want her to hear you!
01:15:00Like, I told you, did she?
01:15:02You probably heard too!
01:15:03No, I tell you, did you.
01:15:04You told her that she is.
01:15:05So, my wife ran off to tell you, did she?
01:15:08I might have known.
01:15:09She'd tell me nothing!
01:15:11She's a creole girl.
01:15:13She has the sun in her.
01:15:14She has more pride than you.
01:15:16I know that, girl.
01:15:17She'd never ask you for love again.
01:15:19She'd die for you.
01:15:20But I betty.
01:15:23She'd love you so much.
01:15:24She'd love her again.
01:15:27A little.
01:15:28like you can't love,
01:15:31or they will tear her to pieces like they do her mother.
01:15:34I'll always look after her. I promise you that.
01:15:37She don't come to your house and beg you to marry her.
01:15:41It's you come all the long way to her house.
01:15:45And you love her till she's drunk with it,
01:15:48till she can't see the sun.
01:15:51Then you say you don't want her and break her up.
01:15:54What you do with her money, eh?
01:15:59That has nothing to do with you.
01:16:01Take it.
01:16:03Leave her enough so she can live.
01:16:04Take the rest and go. You're not without honor.
01:16:07And who will take care of her?
01:16:09I will.
01:16:13Take her away from this place.
01:16:17Maybe to Martinique.
01:16:21That girl was made for loving.
01:16:26She'd marry someone else.
01:16:28Oh, no, she will not.
01:16:31She's my wife, and I intend to look after her for the rest of her life.
01:16:35Now, say goodbye to your mistress and go.
01:16:39Who are you to tell me to go? This Miss Antoinette's house.
01:16:42I assure you, it belongs to me.
01:16:45Now, you will leave immediately, or I'll get the men to put you out.
01:16:49You think the men here touch me?
01:16:51Then I'll get the soldiers up.
01:16:56I've kept some of that wine with the poison in it.
01:16:59No soldiers here.
01:17:01No chain gang either.
01:17:04No treadmill.
01:17:05This is a free country.
01:17:11And I, a free woman.
01:17:17Do you think I wanted this?
01:17:18I'd give my eyes never to have seen her or this abominable place.
01:17:27First true damn word, you say.
01:17:29Finally, it seems quieter here.
01:17:51And Antoinette?
01:17:57Don't.
01:18:00Where's Christophine?
01:18:04She won't be coming back.
01:18:08Everything's clearer without her.
01:18:11For both of us.
01:18:12Antoinette.
01:18:32Antoinette.
01:18:32Antoinette.
01:18:42Antoinette.
01:19:12Where are you?
01:20:12The Rose of Trilly is a very fine vessel.
01:20:32I've travelled on a couple of times myself now.
01:20:35Know the captain well.
01:20:38This is so sudden.
01:20:42She doesn't seem herself.
01:20:53Well, she'll be better looked after in England than in this country.
01:21:04Antoinette, do you really want to go?
01:21:05Well, I think it's time to say our goodbyes.
01:21:12Goodby, my darling girl.
01:21:14Goodby.
01:21:16Well, I expect I'll be visiting you at Thornfield Hall.
01:21:19Yes, I expect so, Richard.
01:21:21I expect so, Richard.
01:21:27all of us.
01:21:32All of us.
01:21:39All of us.
01:21:42All of us.
01:21:42All these beautiful gyms.
01:21:43All of us.
01:21:44All of us.
01:21:44Now of us.
01:21:45All of us.
01:21:45And of us.
01:21:46All of us.
01:21:46What is the name of the king?
01:21:46I hated the beauty of the place
01:21:56and its magic
01:21:58and the secret I'd never know
01:22:00Above all, I hated her
01:22:03For she'd left me thirsty
01:22:07and all my life would be thirst
01:22:09and longing for what I'd lost
01:22:12before I had found it
01:22:16To be continued
01:22:46Congratulations, sir.
01:22:50Congratulations.
01:23:16I had to tell you the news.
01:23:45Yes.
01:23:47The master's marrying our Jane Eyre.
01:23:48He's waited long enough.
01:23:51How is she?
01:23:52Lost as usual?
01:23:55She's not lost her spirit.
01:23:57I don't turn my back on her when she's got that look on her face.
01:24:02When I first came here, I thought it would be for a reason.
01:24:07I waited for him to come, but he did not come.
01:24:12He hired a woman to look after me, and then he forgot me.
01:24:19Now I know what I must do in this house where I am cold and not belonging.
01:24:26I will dream the end of my dream.
01:24:41I will dream the end of my dream.
01:24:48Let's see.
01:24:49Let's go.
01:24:50What am I doing?
01:24:51I'm looking for the end of my dream.
01:24:53Let's go.
01:24:54Let's go.
01:24:55Let's go.
01:24:56Let's go.
01:24:57Let's go.
01:24:58Let's go.
01:25:00Let's go.
01:25:01Let's go.
01:25:31Let's go.
01:26:01Let's go.
