EPISODE 6

MANCHURIA, CHINA, 1904

SAINT PETERSBURG, 1875

What did the doctor say?

She's doing very well.

He recommended bathing.
We're ust about to ive her a bath now.

She takes after you, madam.

No... She's not at all like me.

She takes after her father.

Where is the count?

With His Excellency Prince Yashvin.

- Anna, this is Prince Yashvin.
- We've met before.

Last year, at the races.

This year I attended the races
at the Corso in Rome.

I've heard you don't fancy living abroad.

I know about you, know all your tastes,
although we have seldom met.

I'm sorry about that,

because my tastes are mostly poor.

Well, I must be off.

I only dropped in.
I heard you were back,

and wished to see how you are.

Do you expect
to be long in St. Petersburg?

Not long.
We shall be leaving

for the count's family estate
any day now.

So I won't see you again?

Where do you dine?

You could dine with us.

At least you will see him.

Of all his friends in the regiment,
Alexei is fondest of you.

I'd be delighted.

I must be going.

Alexei, no need to see me out.
Anna, it was an honor.

- I also must be going. I have a meeting.
- Wait.

I have something to say to you.

Is it all right
that I asked him to lunch?

You did quite right.

Alexei.

have your feelings changed?

If they have,
you must tell me.

I need to know.

Are you talking about, Anna?

Where do you spend your time?

It seems you're avoiding me.

Yesterday you dined out.
And you haven't seen me since

yesterday afternoon.

Now you're home,
but with someone else.

And you're running off again
goodness knows where.

Why "goodness knows"?

I have a meeting planned,
I told you.

An important meeting with my brother.
About money.

When are we going to the country?

We can go next week if you like.

All that's left is
to settle the inheritance.

I really must go.

- I'm already late.
Yes, yes. Go.

Forgive me for asking you
about your relations with...

Well, you know who I mean.

I know, and I want to speak to you
about the matter frankly.

I regard my relationship with Anna
as a marriage.

I hope that's clear?

Vodka, wine?

- Wine.
- Wine, and some vodka for me.

So I hope to arrange for her divorce
and then to marry her.

Meanwhile I consider her
as much my wife

as any other would be.

- Please pass this on to Mother.
- All right, if that's what you want.

I couldn't care less
if society approves.

But if my family wants to be
on good terms with me,

they'll treat her as my wife.

All right, I see. Calm down.

I have always respected your judgement.

I don't know if you're right
it's your life and your decision, but...

don't count on Mother.
She'll not forgive her.

She's convinced Karenina is the cause
of the trouble with your career.

What about you?

Will you cast stones, too?

For my part
I have nothing against Mrs. Karenina.

You see, I'm putting great hopes in you.

You must just make a point to visit Anna,
and to receive her into your house.

I love you, Alexei,
and would, of course, but...

But I doubt
I can help you with this.

Don't think I'm judging
I would never.

I can't, and won't, go into details.

But we have to call a spade a spade.

Then why are you refusing?

Isn't that what you're trying to say?

I have daughters to bring up.

I must live for their sake,
for my career.

Supposing I went to visit Anna.

She'd know
I couldn't receive her at my house,

unless she met only those
who think as we do.

And that would dishonor her!
I can't receive her!

She's fallen no lower than other women

you all receive in the hundreds.

Alexei, don't be angry with me.
I'm not to blame.

I'm not angry with you.

Alexei...

Well, perhaps not ruin it,

but at least weaken it.

For me, it cannot be otherwise.

At last!

I am so glad to see you!

I imagine after such a glorious trip,
our St. Petersburg must seem horrid.

I can even imagine
your Roman honeymoon!

What of the divorce?

Is it all settled?

There's not yet been a divorce.

Where are you staying?

At my house.

Let them cast stones,
I'll still pay you a visit.

Yes, tell Anna
I'll certainly visit.

You won't be here long, I suppose?

I hope not
We intend to go to my estate.

To your estate.

Yes. I just have to divide
the inheritance with my brother.

To the country, you mean?

Yes. We've decided
that life must change.

Please.

And when will the divorce be?

Nowadays, its so simple.

What's keeping you, Alexei?

Anna doesn't want it.

Can she not see
that it's in her interest?

Or can you not see?

Can you not grasp
what sort of situation you are both in?

What exactly am
I supposed to grasp?

You will not be accepted.

Of course.

I have no illusions.

Court society won't accept Anna, but...

those dear to us can
and must understand us.

Oh God.

I may toss my bonnet over the mill,
but you can expect a cold shoulder

from the more starched collars.

Until you marry.

How can you be so mistaken, Alexei?

I thought those ideas
were old-fashioned

that now, with modern progress...

that the views of society

had changed.

And so?

I thought it was not yet settled,
whether society would accept us.

Alexei, surely you understand,
society will always be open to you.

But for Anna
it will be closed forever.

Hands extended to you
will be immediately withdrawn from her.

When are you leaving?

What a pity.

Then I probably can't visit.

We shan't see each other
for a while.

Goodbye.

Though I wish it were 'before long...'

I beg you not to delay with the divorce.

Anna, are you truly going
to the theater?

What concerns you so?

No reason whatsoever.

That's just what I say.

Anna, please. Why do this?

Come to your senses.

I don't understand
what you mean.

- You know you can't go.
- Why not?

I'm not going alone.
Yashvin's coming with me.

- But surely you know...
- I don't want to!

I don't want to know.

Regret what I've done?
No no, and no!

And if I could
I would do the same again.

the Important thing is
that we love each other.

Is there nothing else?

Why can't I go?

I love you,
and nothing else matters.

As long as you haven't changed.

My feelings cannot change.
You know that.

But please don't go.

I implore you.

Then I beg you to explain
why I should not go!

Because it might cause you...

I don't understand at all.

About Lankovsky's Powerhouse,

he's a fine colt
I'd advise you to buy him.

He's weak in the hindquarters,
but his legs and head couldn't be better.

Ma'am has sent me to say
she has gone to the theater.

Well, shall we go?

I'm not going.

Well, I must,
I promised Anna.

Well, so long.
And if you change your mind...

- take Krasinsky's seat in the stalls.
- I can't, I'm busy!

What is it today?

Fourth subscription...

My brother and his wife are there.

Mother, most likely.

So all St. Petersburg's there.

Now she's gone in,

taken off her fur cloak,

and made her appearance.

Why is she putting me in this position?

Lavrenty!

Get my dress-coat ready.

I wil not stay here
another second.

It's disgraceful for respectable people
to sit near such a woman.

Vronsky! I hardly recognized you.

You don't look the soldier.
Maybe a diplomat, or an actor.

to see your old friends?

I will sometime, I'm sure.
Forgive me.

- Mother.
- Why aren't you courting Mrs. Karenina?

She's causing a sensation.

Adelina Patti is quite forgotten.

- Please don't talk about it.
- I'm only saying what everyone is saying.

- Varya.
- That Kartasova woman had no right.

It was vile. Madame Karenina...

What? What about Kartasova?

She's an idiot, that's all.

What did she do?

She insulted Karenina.

She said something in a loud voice
and left the box.

Ah, Alexei my friend!
It's disgusting.

I was just about to go up to her box...

Sorry, but it's up to me.

You're to blame for it all.

I asked you...

I begged you not to go.

I knew it would be unpleasant for you.

Unpleasant!

It was horrible!

As long as I live,
I shall never forget it.

She said it was a disgrace
to sit near me!

The words of a stupid woman.

But why take the risk,

why provoke..

I hate your tranquility.

You should not have driven me to this.

If you loved me...

Anna! How does my love come into this?

Yes,

if you loved as I do

if you suffered as I do...

Mr. Karenin!

Mrs Kameneva.

Good day, Mr. Karenin.

You see, here we meet again.

- Are you alone?
- Yes.

You're still carrying him
around with you?

You know, I ordered a coffim in Mukdeny

and wanted to send him
to Russia by train, but...

the coffin wasn't ready in time
and they wouldn't take him.

They wouldn't take him.
And they abandoned the station.

Mrs. Kameneva, I understand.
But there must be something we can do?

This is also unacceptable.
He's starting to smell.

Bury him here. I'll arrange it.

- You can't keep carrying him around.
- No. I'll take him home.

If I leave him here,
I'll go mad for sure.

- Could I have something to eat, please?
- Yes, of course.

Thank you.

Yegorov!

- Feed her and fodder the horse.
- Yes, sir!

- Who is that?
- Varvara Kameneva.

She was a sister in our hospital.

She left her child and came here
to be closer to her husband.

He was an artillery officer
who served in our corps.

Killed two weeks ago.

She's trying to send his body
back to Russia.

Hauling it around like that.

Mrs. Kameneva!

Listen to me:

He must be buried.

You can't bring him back.

Yes,

and then hurry home!

You have a child!

If something happens to you,
then what of the child?

- Do you think so?
- Yes.

There's an officers' cemetery.

The doctor's office
and ditspensairy will be here.

The storeroom and linen room, here.

Next the shower rooms.
As you requested,

we installed marble baths.

For the surgeon's ward
we ordered

beds with improved springs.

I noticed the cornices aren't finished.
When will they be ready?

In two or three weeks.

Good afternoon, Anna.

The walls on the lower floor
are plastered faux marble,

the windows are in, only the parquet
isn't ready yet, it's being varnished.

- The whole of the upper floor is ready...
- The pediment is still too low.

I said the foundation
ought to be raised.

Yes, that would have been better,
but it's finished now.

Then it must bre reinforced.

Perhaps, yes, we could add
an additional partition.

That won't do any good.
A partition would clearly

not provide enough support
for the gable wall.

Here, in the attic,

we must put up
a special dividing wall.

No less than ten inches thick.

This building must
match the hospital.

- Otherwise it's an unplanned afterthought.
- Yes. I'll give it thought.

I also have a few remarks
about the ventilation.

- I've looked at your draughts.
- Something with the ventilation?

Pardon, but this is a new design.

Yes, but aren't you putting a stove
in the next room?

A stove, yes.

Then there won't be enough distance
between the inlet and outlet openings.

- Anna.
- I made some calculations,

- with Karl's help.
- Yes.

Since the pressure gradient on both sides

increases the velocity pressure
of the wind by 15-30%,

then, clearly, the gradient at the center
of the lower openings will be...

Correct?
So, the pressure gradient

at the center of the upper openings
will be...

Therefore we may conclude
that in order to achieve

the necessary draught,
we need to increase the distance

between the inlet and outlet openings

by this amount...

"0.007 feet"

So it's all very simple.
Isn't it, Karl?

Oh yes, it's quite simple.

Yes, yes...
Anna, forgive me, but

how are you so...?

Building the hospital
occupies a great deal of my interest.

Did you follow all that?

Yes, of course,
I'll do some more calculations.

Ah! Excuse me. Goodbye..

Anna, I'm amazed at your knowledge.
Where does it come from?

I've read the books and journals
you're subscribed to.

What? You've read them all?

But that's specialist literature
Architecture, agriculture, horse-breeding...

And ironmongery.

Why are you doing this?

Can't you guess?

My one desire is not only to please you,
but also to serve you.

She's woken up.
Look who's woken up!

What a lovely horsie...

Ooh, look how fast he's going!
Gallopy-gallopy.

Gallopy-gallopy! Isn't he?

Anya.

They've stopped.

I didn't dare believe it! Dolly
why didn't you let me know?

- How wonderfull!
- Hello, my darling.

I'm so glad! Alexei!

We are so glad to see you.

- You must be tired from the journey?
- No, no, not at all.

Then let's have some tea.
Lavrenty!

Have the corner room made ready.
Come this way.

- How is your little girl?
- Anya?

Very well. She's grewing well.

We've had such troubles with nannies.

I'd shaw her to you.
But you know...

I sometimes feel I'm in the way
in the nursery.

It was different with the first.

- Not the other way round?
- Oh, no.

By the way, you know,
I saw Sergei.

But we'll talk about that later.
I have so much to tell you.

You're looking at me and wondering
how I can be happy in my position.

I'm ashamed to confess it,
but I'm unforgivably happy.

Something, magical has happened,
as in a dream,

in which you're in terror and panic,

and then vou wake.

And discover all the horrors are gone.

I've awakened.
I've llived through the agony and dread,

but for so long now, espeeially
since we've'-come here, I'm so happy!

I'm so glad.
I'm verry glad for you.

- Why didn't you write?
- Why?

I didn't dare to.
You forget my position.

You didn't dare? To me?

If only you knew how I...

- We'll talk about that later
- No, no.

How do you regard my position?
What do you think of it?

I think...

I don't think anything. I always
loved you, and if you love someone,

you love them just as they are,
not how you'd like them to be.

If you have anv sins, then they've been
forgiven for this visit, and those words.

How I envy you Anna!

You envy me?

I don't think you understand.

I look back on my life,
fifteen years of marriage.

And what was it?

Pregnancy, sickness, dullness of mind,

not caring about anything.
Lord!

Birth, the agony,
endless agony,

then nursing the baby,
sleepless nights, terrible pain.

What do they attack you for?
Am I any better?

One may say
I have a husband whom I love.

It's true, I do love him,
not as would like to, but I do.

And you loved yours.
How are you to blame?

You just want to live!
God put that need in our hearts.

And I would have done the same.

Perhaps I was wrong to listen
at that terrible time,

when you came to Moscow.

I should have left him then
and started a new life.

I would have loved
and been truly loved.

Is this any beftter?
I don't respect him.

I need Stiva, and I put up with him.
Is that any better?

I see that you don't understand
my position.

No I do understand
I think what you did was quite right,

and I would never judge you.

You are happy,
and you make someone else happy.

You're not broken, like me,

but just as you always were.
clever, fresh open-minded.

It's good you don't know
what it was like in St. Petersburg.

But I'm here and I'm happy.

- If only I'd known you didn't despise me!
- Anna, how can you?

I'm so happy I'm talking nonsense.

I'm glad to see you, darling,
with all my heart!

And I'm glad you will see me as I am.
That I don't have anything to prove.

I just want to live,
doing evil to no one, except myself.

Let me tell you about what
we are doing on the estate. Alexei...

given his means, you see
now that we have moved to the country,

he can have a big influence
on life in this province.
