1
00:00:01,749 --> 00:00:04,499
(dramatic music)

2
00:01:40,666 --> 00:01:43,416
(dramatic music)

3
00:02:01,874 --> 00:02:02,874
Halt.

4
00:02:05,457 --> 00:02:06,351
What?

5
00:02:06,375 --> 00:02:07,392
Are you sure?

6
00:02:07,416 --> 00:02:09,517
No, we'll see if it's true first.

7
00:02:09,541 --> 00:02:10,541
Out torches.

8
00:02:12,041 --> 00:02:13,041
Forward.

9
00:02:13,832 --> 00:02:16,582
(dramatic music)

10
00:02:42,541 --> 00:02:44,350
Hey, gently there, gently.

11
00:02:44,374 --> 00:02:46,058
Have a little more respect
for the King's wine.

12
00:02:46,082 --> 00:02:49,249
(light hearted music)

13
00:02:52,749 --> 00:02:55,392
And we'll drink it to your
health, old fancy-face.

14
00:02:55,416 --> 00:02:58,392
And to the downfall of His
Majesty King Louis the XI.

15
00:02:58,416 --> 00:03:00,791
Well, I'm glad you reminded me.

16
00:03:02,249 --> 00:03:03,101
No, no.

17
00:03:03,125 --> 00:03:04,808
Why give yourself the trouble, Rene?

18
00:03:04,832 --> 00:03:05,933
Why?

19
00:03:05,957 --> 00:03:07,725
To help him forget what we look like.

20
00:03:07,749 --> 00:03:09,725
I don't think he'll remember us.

21
00:03:09,749 --> 00:03:11,541
Will you, sour-breeches?

22
00:03:14,791 --> 00:03:17,142
He's a little soft in the
head, aren't you, uncle?

23
00:03:17,166 --> 00:03:17,934
You see.

24
00:03:17,958 --> 00:03:19,642
Why he isn't any softer
in the head than I am.

25
00:03:19,666 --> 00:03:21,100
Exactly.

26
00:03:21,124 --> 00:03:23,892
Rene!

27
00:03:23,916 --> 00:03:24,975
It's one thing to borrow a little

28
00:03:24,999 --> 00:03:27,142
of His Majesty's food and wine.

29
00:03:27,166 --> 00:03:28,267
But nothing like that.

30
00:03:28,291 --> 00:03:29,850
We'll hang for it you fool.

31
00:03:29,874 --> 00:03:30,892
Then let us hang.

32
00:03:30,916 --> 00:03:32,433
[Man] The Watch!

33
00:03:32,457 --> 00:03:34,642
(suspenseful music)

34
00:03:34,666 --> 00:03:35,850
[Man] The candle, hurry.

35
00:03:35,874 --> 00:03:38,874
(suspenseful music)

36
00:03:48,707 --> 00:03:50,308
After him!

37
00:03:50,332 --> 00:03:53,332
(suspenseful music)

38
00:04:00,916 --> 00:04:01,726
There he goes.

39
00:04:01,750 --> 00:04:04,749
(suspenseful music)

40
00:04:12,957 --> 00:04:15,100
He must be somewhere.

41
00:04:15,124 --> 00:04:17,541
Some of you search that
way, the rest follow me.

42
00:04:22,374 --> 00:04:25,374
(suspenseful music)

43
00:04:27,541 --> 00:04:28,683
(dramatic chord)

44
00:04:28,707 --> 00:04:30,100
[Man] There he is.

45
00:04:30,124 --> 00:04:31,267
After him!

46
00:04:31,291 --> 00:04:34,291
(suspenseful music)

47
00:05:24,249 --> 00:05:25,374
Good morning, Father.

48
00:05:27,916 --> 00:05:29,392
Now what trouble are you in?

49
00:05:29,416 --> 00:05:30,225
Well...

50
00:05:30,249 --> 00:05:31,059
No, don't tell me.

51
00:05:31,083 --> 00:05:33,058
I'd better know nothing whatever about it.

52
00:05:33,082 --> 00:05:36,017
But you wound me, Father,
you wound me deeply.

53
00:05:36,041 --> 00:05:38,225
I have just returned from the country.

54
00:05:38,249 --> 00:05:40,517
My first thought is naturally
for my foster father.

55
00:05:40,541 --> 00:05:43,600
I fly to your domicile
and how am I received?

56
00:05:43,624 --> 00:05:45,392
Like a fly in the soup.

57
00:05:45,416 --> 00:05:46,725
In the first place, you
have not been in the country.

58
00:05:46,749 --> 00:05:47,601
Because you couldn't get through

59
00:05:47,625 --> 00:05:49,600
the Burgundian lines without wings.

60
00:05:49,624 --> 00:05:53,058
And if there is one man in
France who has not got wings,

61
00:05:53,082 --> 00:05:55,433
it is you, François.

62
00:05:55,457 --> 00:05:56,767
And in second place.

63
00:05:56,791 --> 00:05:58,183
I hear that you were drunk every night

64
00:05:58,207 --> 00:06:00,350
last week in the Fir Cone Tavern

65
00:06:00,374 --> 00:06:04,433
with a wench who rejoices
in the name of Fat Marge.

66
00:06:04,457 --> 00:06:05,600
[Francois] That's not true, Father.

67
00:06:05,624 --> 00:06:07,041
I choose to believe it.

68
00:06:08,249 --> 00:06:10,683
Have you ever shown me
anything but ingratitude?

69
00:06:10,707 --> 00:06:12,017
Brought me anything but misery

70
00:06:12,041 --> 00:06:14,392
since I took you in at the age of six?

71
00:06:14,416 --> 00:06:15,642
That is true, Father.

72
00:06:15,666 --> 00:06:17,957
At seven you were an
expert in breaking windows.

73
00:06:17,999 --> 00:06:18,893
Is that the milk?

74
00:06:18,917 --> 00:06:19,975
Yes.

75
00:06:19,999 --> 00:06:21,517
At eight, you stole a chicken

76
00:06:21,541 --> 00:06:22,892
from the spit of Master Ledoux.

77
00:06:22,916 --> 00:06:24,433
A small, thin chicken.

78
00:06:24,457 --> 00:06:25,975
Don't cloud the issue.

79
00:06:25,999 --> 00:06:27,225
At 11 you stole a goat.

80
00:06:27,249 --> 00:06:28,058
Yes.

81
00:06:28,082 --> 00:06:29,059
A fat goat.

82
00:06:29,083 --> 00:06:30,975
And at fourteen.

83
00:06:30,999 --> 00:06:32,475
At fourteen you were carefully

84
00:06:32,499 --> 00:06:34,725
avoiding your classes at the university

85
00:06:34,749 --> 00:06:37,850
to spend your days fishing and gambling

86
00:06:37,874 --> 00:06:39,975
and writing questionable verse.

87
00:06:39,999 --> 00:06:42,350
Yet I took a master's
degree, you can't deny that.

88
00:06:42,374 --> 00:06:43,850
And for what?

89
00:06:43,874 --> 00:06:45,808
So that you could become
the foulest example

90
00:06:45,832 --> 00:06:47,517
of laziness and loose
living that's ever been...

91
00:06:47,541 --> 00:06:48,351
(door knocks)

92
00:06:48,375 --> 00:06:50,183
[Man] Open in the King's name!

93
00:06:50,207 --> 00:06:51,267
What have you done?

94
00:06:51,291 --> 00:06:54,433
Nothing, nothing, I just
came from the country.

95
00:06:54,457 --> 00:06:56,142
[Man] Open I say!

96
00:06:56,166 --> 00:06:57,725
Tell them, tell them you were sleeping.

97
00:06:57,749 --> 00:06:58,558
You saw no-one.

98
00:06:58,582 --> 00:06:59,434
I'll not tell a lie, François.

99
00:06:59,458 --> 00:07:02,332
That's all right but you
don't have to be chatty either.

100
00:07:04,249 --> 00:07:09,249
Open!

101
00:07:09,499 --> 00:07:10,350
Good morning, Father.

102
00:07:10,374 --> 00:07:11,184
I'm sorry to disturb you

103
00:07:11,208 --> 00:07:13,058
but the King's storehouse
has just been robbed.

104
00:07:13,082 --> 00:07:14,808
The King's storehouse, robbed?

105
00:07:14,832 --> 00:07:16,100
Yes.

106
00:07:16,124 --> 00:07:17,642
By the poor no doubt.

107
00:07:17,666 --> 00:07:18,892
They are so hungry.

108
00:07:18,916 --> 00:07:21,767
And the sight of all those
hams and chickens and cheeses.

109
00:07:21,791 --> 00:07:23,767
You seem to know a good
deal about this, Father.

110
00:07:23,791 --> 00:07:24,892
I?

111
00:07:24,916 --> 00:07:27,350
I knew nothing at all
about it until you told me.

112
00:07:27,374 --> 00:07:29,725
Nevertheless, one of the thieves
was seen climbing your wall.

113
00:07:29,749 --> 00:07:30,892
Did you see him?

114
00:07:30,916 --> 00:07:32,207
Climbing over my wall?

115
00:07:33,291 --> 00:07:36,017
No, I can truthfully say I did not.

116
00:07:36,041 --> 00:07:37,892
You see, I was here in the kitchen.

117
00:07:37,916 --> 00:07:39,642
You can't see the wall from the kitchen.

118
00:07:39,666 --> 00:07:41,041
Ah, search the house.

119
00:07:48,582 --> 00:07:49,832
Is this your breakfast?

120
00:07:51,124 --> 00:07:52,350
It was my breakfast.

121
00:07:52,374 --> 00:07:53,183
(upstairs clattering)

122
00:07:53,207 --> 00:07:54,207
Upstairs, quick.

123
00:08:04,291 --> 00:08:05,291
After him.

124
00:08:15,082 --> 00:08:16,999
I'll see you again, Father.

125
00:08:37,374 --> 00:08:39,975
Well, now perhaps I may
finish my breakfast in peace.

126
00:08:39,999 --> 00:08:40,999
Eh, Father?

127
00:08:44,582 --> 00:08:49,582
You come with me.

128
00:09:03,249 --> 00:09:04,933
But Father.

129
00:09:04,957 --> 00:09:07,707
(dramatic music)

130
00:09:14,541 --> 00:09:16,642
But Father, it will soon
be daylight, and I...

131
00:09:16,666 --> 00:09:19,416
(dramatic music)

132
00:09:38,249 --> 00:09:40,666
Now pray, you sinner, pray.

133
00:09:41,666 --> 00:09:44,416
(dramatic music)

134
00:11:17,249 --> 00:11:18,249
Well.

135
00:11:19,374 --> 00:11:21,933
(whistle blows)

136
00:11:21,957 --> 00:11:23,749
Go on, go on, play.

137
00:11:25,999 --> 00:11:29,058
(whistle blows)

138
00:11:29,082 --> 00:11:30,142
Wait here, Milady.

139
00:11:30,166 --> 00:11:32,374
I'll dig them out in a
way they'll remember.

140
00:11:40,957 --> 00:11:42,457
I was afraid you'd gone.

141
00:11:44,582 --> 00:11:45,518
I've never seen you before in my life.

142
00:11:45,542 --> 00:11:47,892
But you've forgotten, my dreams.

143
00:11:47,916 --> 00:11:49,433
I dreamt of you always.

144
00:11:49,457 --> 00:11:51,892
Each night we'd roam
the starry way together.

145
00:11:51,916 --> 00:11:54,183
Each morning I'd wake
with despair in my heart.

146
00:11:54,207 --> 00:11:56,683
To realize no mortal could be so fair.

147
00:11:56,707 --> 00:12:00,142
Yet here you are, the loveliest
lady this side of heaven.

148
00:12:00,166 --> 00:12:01,767
I find to my shame my dreams

149
00:12:01,791 --> 00:12:03,142
have done you less than justice.

150
00:12:03,166 --> 00:12:04,433
Oh Milady.

151
00:12:04,457 --> 00:12:07,725
Milady, I eat and drink
thinking only of you.

152
00:12:07,749 --> 00:12:09,666
Wherever I look I see you only.

153
00:12:11,166 --> 00:12:13,017
Of course, if I had better
manners I'd keep this to myself.

154
00:12:13,041 --> 00:12:14,600
But you see, I have no manners.

155
00:12:14,624 --> 00:12:15,933
I do indeed.

156
00:12:15,957 --> 00:12:17,350
But we are as we are.

157
00:12:17,374 --> 00:12:19,058
For what purpose, no-one knows.

158
00:12:19,082 --> 00:12:20,707
Perhaps, perhaps I was born

159
00:12:20,749 --> 00:12:22,850
to inhale the perfume of your hair.

160
00:12:22,874 --> 00:12:24,791
And to exhale the music of the ages.

161
00:12:26,249 --> 00:12:28,850
May I, may I read you a poem?

162
00:12:28,874 --> 00:12:29,768
No.

163
00:12:29,792 --> 00:12:30,999
Thank you, Milady.

164
00:12:32,332 --> 00:12:34,308
If I were king.

165
00:12:34,332 --> 00:12:36,225
Love, if I were king.

166
00:12:36,249 --> 00:12:38,142
What tributary nations would I bring

167
00:12:38,166 --> 00:12:39,975
to stoop before your scepter.

168
00:12:39,999 --> 00:12:43,225
And to swear allegiance to
your lips and eyes and hair.

169
00:12:43,249 --> 00:12:45,558
Beneath your feet what
treasures I would fling.

170
00:12:45,582 --> 00:12:48,475
The stars should be your
pearls upon a string.

171
00:12:48,499 --> 00:12:49,475
The world a ruby.

172
00:12:49,499 --> 00:12:50,309
[Woman] Milady.

173
00:12:50,333 --> 00:12:52,933
The world a ruby for your finger ring.

174
00:12:52,957 --> 00:12:55,642
And you should have the sun and
moon to wear if I were king.

175
00:12:55,666 --> 00:12:57,767
Like these wild dreams and wilder world.

176
00:12:57,791 --> 00:13:00,457
Holy joke, seize that ruffian.

177
00:13:02,082 --> 00:13:03,082
Milady.

178
00:13:03,832 --> 00:13:06,832
Milady, won't you accept this poem?

179
00:13:10,957 --> 00:13:12,142
[Man] Shall we beat him, Milady?

180
00:13:12,166 --> 00:13:14,058
Yes, but not too hard.

181
00:13:14,082 --> 00:13:15,082
Just lightly.

182
00:13:15,791 --> 00:13:19,892
There he is.

183
00:13:19,916 --> 00:13:21,707
You thought you'd got away, did you?

184
00:13:22,749 --> 00:13:23,684
Aren't you Francois Villon?

185
00:13:23,708 --> 00:13:26,100
Francois Villon, Captain.

186
00:13:26,124 --> 00:13:27,683
At your service.

187
00:13:27,707 --> 00:13:28,707
Oh.

188
00:13:29,499 --> 00:13:31,582
Is this the man you saw in the storehouse?

189
00:13:33,207 --> 00:13:36,225
I have never laid eyes on him before.

190
00:13:36,249 --> 00:13:37,957
Have I, fancy-face?

191
00:13:39,582 --> 00:13:41,350
Are you sure?

192
00:13:41,374 --> 00:13:43,041
I have an eye like an eagle.

193
00:13:44,624 --> 00:13:45,767
Maybe.

194
00:13:45,791 --> 00:13:47,767
I think we we'll take
him along to make sure.

195
00:13:47,791 --> 00:13:48,916
One moment, Captain.

196
00:13:49,999 --> 00:13:51,558
There must be some mistake.

197
00:13:51,582 --> 00:13:54,207
I saw this gentleman at
his prayers in church.

198
00:13:55,332 --> 00:13:56,332
Good day.

199
00:14:03,082 --> 00:14:04,059
Well.

200
00:14:04,083 --> 00:14:05,832
Let the gentlemen go.

201
00:14:07,499 --> 00:14:08,933
But only for the time being.

202
00:14:08,957 --> 00:14:09,767
Alright.

203
00:14:09,791 --> 00:14:10,791
Forward.

204
00:14:13,457 --> 00:14:15,041
Goodbye, sour-breeches.

205
00:14:46,499 --> 00:14:48,558
Now Francois, admit.

206
00:14:48,582 --> 00:14:50,308
You feel better for it, don't you?

207
00:14:50,332 --> 00:14:52,058
I do, Father, I do.

208
00:14:52,082 --> 00:14:53,392
You see, my son?

209
00:14:53,416 --> 00:14:56,142
Time spent in church is not wasted.

210
00:14:56,166 --> 00:14:57,892
Indeed not, Father.

211
00:14:57,916 --> 00:15:00,767
She, she smiled at me.

212
00:15:00,791 --> 00:15:01,791
Smiled?

213
00:15:04,374 --> 00:15:07,124
(dramatic music)

214
00:15:31,499 --> 00:15:32,499
Katherine.

215
00:15:36,541 --> 00:15:37,393
Good morning, Katherine.

216
00:15:37,417 --> 00:15:38,850
Morning, Noel.

217
00:15:38,874 --> 00:15:40,725
Why didn't you attend
me at mass this morning?

218
00:15:40,749 --> 00:15:41,933
I was on duty all night.

219
00:15:41,957 --> 00:15:44,183
I'm just off to the east
gate now with reinforcements.

220
00:15:44,207 --> 00:15:45,018
Has there been fighting?

221
00:15:45,042 --> 00:15:47,392
No, the Burgundians won't attack.

222
00:15:47,416 --> 00:15:48,226
Why should they when they know

223
00:15:48,250 --> 00:15:50,225
they can soon starve us into submission.

224
00:15:50,249 --> 00:15:53,683
But are we to wait for
that and, and do nothing?

225
00:15:53,707 --> 00:15:55,975
The longer we delay the
weaker our people get.

226
00:15:55,999 --> 00:15:58,683
While the Burgundians
grow stronger each day.

227
00:15:58,707 --> 00:16:01,308
Why don't we attack them
and get it over with?

228
00:16:01,332 --> 00:16:02,767
Have we no arms?

229
00:16:02,791 --> 00:16:04,475
Have we no men to fight for us?

230
00:16:04,499 --> 00:16:06,725
(man applauds)

231
00:16:06,749 --> 00:16:08,433
Well spoken, Lady Katherine.

232
00:16:08,457 --> 00:16:10,433
Spoken with all the impatience of youth

233
00:16:10,457 --> 00:16:11,393
with its life before it

234
00:16:11,417 --> 00:16:13,892
and the courage of a woman
who doesn't have to fight.

235
00:16:13,916 --> 00:16:14,809
Forgive me, Your Majesty.

236
00:16:14,833 --> 00:16:16,642
Such words are dangerous, cousin.

237
00:16:16,666 --> 00:16:19,433
Suppose one of my generals,
fired by your oratory,

238
00:16:19,457 --> 00:16:21,350
rushed out to meet the enemy.

239
00:16:21,374 --> 00:16:23,350
We might all get our throats cut.

240
00:16:23,374 --> 00:16:24,874
Suppose we won the battle.

241
00:16:25,749 --> 00:16:28,933
No, no, no, my generals
never win battles.

242
00:16:28,957 --> 00:16:31,850
No more than my guards protect
me against my own people.

243
00:16:31,874 --> 00:16:33,892
Did you know we had thirteen
outbreaks last night?

244
00:16:33,916 --> 00:16:36,308
Even my private storehouse was robbed.

245
00:16:36,332 --> 00:16:37,143
[Katherine] Oh, Your Majesty.

246
00:16:37,167 --> 00:16:39,892
Yes, yes it's all very depressing.

247
00:16:39,916 --> 00:16:41,808
The robbing of my storehouse especially

248
00:16:41,832 --> 00:16:44,600
denotes a sad lack of patriotism.

249
00:16:44,624 --> 00:16:47,017
And a sad lack of food, Your Majesty?

250
00:16:47,041 --> 00:16:47,893
Huh?

251
00:16:47,917 --> 00:16:49,100
Quite so.

252
00:16:49,124 --> 00:16:49,933
Yes.

253
00:16:49,957 --> 00:16:50,768
And now my dear I think you had

254
00:16:50,792 --> 00:16:51,933
better run along to the Queen.

255
00:16:51,957 --> 00:16:54,100
And help her with her Embroidery

256
00:16:54,124 --> 00:16:56,017
or whatever it is she
does with her spare time.

257
00:16:56,041 --> 00:16:58,100
And if you are bound for
the east gate, master Noel

258
00:16:58,124 --> 00:17:00,183
I suggest you get there
before night overtakes you.

259
00:17:00,207 --> 00:17:01,207
Good morning.

260
00:17:09,999 --> 00:17:11,808
D'Aussigny, what brings you here?

261
00:17:11,832 --> 00:17:12,975
I've just come from a meeting

262
00:17:12,999 --> 00:17:15,933
with a delegation from
the citizens of Paris.

263
00:17:15,957 --> 00:17:18,267
Well, what do they want now?

264
00:17:18,291 --> 00:17:19,433
They realize the futility

265
00:17:19,457 --> 00:17:21,058
of further resistance to the Burgundians.

266
00:17:21,082 --> 00:17:22,392
And appeal to me as Grand Counselor

267
00:17:22,416 --> 00:17:24,517
of France to intercede with Your Majesty.

268
00:17:24,541 --> 00:17:25,351
Perhaps they would like me

269
00:17:25,375 --> 00:17:27,850
to abdicate and surrender the city?

270
00:17:27,874 --> 00:17:29,707
They feel by making terms with the enemy

271
00:17:29,749 --> 00:17:31,683
we would save further
risk to life and property.

272
00:17:31,707 --> 00:17:33,933
Yes, the good citizens
of Paris are much concerned

273
00:17:33,957 --> 00:17:35,957
with their lives and their property.

274
00:17:35,999 --> 00:17:37,933
They say such an act
by Your Majesties part

275
00:17:37,957 --> 00:17:40,124
would assure your sainthood in history.

276
00:17:41,457 --> 00:17:44,957
Yes but my ambitions
are a little more modest.

277
00:17:44,999 --> 00:17:47,808
Tell the good committee we
already have one Saint Louis.

278
00:17:47,832 --> 00:17:49,350
Two might cause confusion.

279
00:17:49,374 --> 00:17:51,041
Good morning, my dear D'Aussigny.

280
00:17:52,707 --> 00:17:53,749
Good morning, sire.

281
00:18:02,416 --> 00:18:03,850
Tell me, Oliver.

282
00:18:03,874 --> 00:18:06,225
If you were one of our
beloved rabble that is,

283
00:18:06,249 --> 00:18:08,142
cold and hungry.

284
00:18:08,166 --> 00:18:10,475
With no good reason to love your King.

285
00:18:10,499 --> 00:18:12,058
What would you do, eh?

286
00:18:12,082 --> 00:18:14,058
You'd desert to the enemy, wouldn't you?

287
00:18:14,082 --> 00:18:15,350
Never, Sire.

288
00:18:15,374 --> 00:18:16,374
You think not?

289
00:18:17,207 --> 00:18:20,142
That is because you are
not one of the rabble.

290
00:18:20,166 --> 00:18:21,642
You are under obligations to your king

291
00:18:21,666 --> 00:18:24,600
who has rewarded you well
for faithful services.

292
00:18:24,624 --> 00:18:25,933
But there are some who have not

293
00:18:25,957 --> 00:18:28,767
your high sense of
loyalty, my dear Oliver.

294
00:18:28,791 --> 00:18:30,308
Look at this arrow now.

295
00:18:30,332 --> 00:18:33,142
It came over the walls last
night from the Burgundian camp.

296
00:18:33,166 --> 00:18:33,933
See?

297
00:18:33,957 --> 00:18:34,934
A very clever device.

298
00:18:34,958 --> 00:18:36,142
It's a message.

299
00:18:36,166 --> 00:18:37,957
It is written in gibberish.

300
00:18:38,957 --> 00:18:42,207
But the one for whom it was
intended would understand it.

301
00:18:43,666 --> 00:18:46,874
Wouldn't it be interesting
to know who that one is?

302
00:18:47,874 --> 00:18:48,684
Eh, Oliver?

303
00:18:48,708 --> 00:18:50,183
Yes.

304
00:18:50,207 --> 00:18:51,683
Yes.

305
00:18:51,707 --> 00:18:54,582
It must be someone important.

306
00:18:56,874 --> 00:18:58,392
The Burgundians won't
go to all this trouble

307
00:18:58,416 --> 00:19:01,058
to send a billet-doux to a serving wench.

308
00:19:01,082 --> 00:19:03,499
Then it must be someone with power.

309
00:19:04,457 --> 00:19:07,291
Someone very close to me.

310
00:19:08,124 --> 00:19:09,350
Am I making you nervous, Oliver?

311
00:19:09,374 --> 00:19:10,226
No, Sire.

312
00:19:10,250 --> 00:19:12,433
I know that Your Majesty trusts me.

313
00:19:12,457 --> 00:19:13,892
Yes, yes, Oliver.

314
00:19:13,916 --> 00:19:15,457
I trust you across the room.

315
00:19:15,499 --> 00:19:17,666
And that's farther than
I trust anyone else.

316
00:19:18,916 --> 00:19:19,726
Well?

317
00:19:19,750 --> 00:19:21,225
Your Majesty.

318
00:19:21,249 --> 00:19:23,850
The prisoner is most obstinate.

319
00:19:23,874 --> 00:19:26,808
Has he been fully persuaded?

320
00:19:26,832 --> 00:19:28,433
Yes, Your Majesty.

321
00:19:28,457 --> 00:19:30,249
But he still refuses to confess.

322
00:19:31,249 --> 00:19:32,683
A foolish fellow.

323
00:19:32,707 --> 00:19:34,225
Perhaps a little of my persuasive powers

324
00:19:34,249 --> 00:19:35,350
may cause him to change his mind.

325
00:19:35,374 --> 00:19:36,374
Give me that arrow.

326
00:19:37,749 --> 00:19:38,791
Come on, both of you.

327
00:19:51,124 --> 00:19:53,916
Nasty smell down here, as if
the cook had burnt the roast.

328
00:20:00,166 --> 00:20:01,350
Come now.

329
00:20:01,374 --> 00:20:02,475
Tell me my man.

330
00:20:02,499 --> 00:20:03,832
For whom was this intended?

331
00:20:05,499 --> 00:20:06,309
Come, come, come.

332
00:20:06,333 --> 00:20:07,725
Why bring all this suffering on yourself?

333
00:20:07,749 --> 00:20:09,457
Better use your tongue while you have it.

334
00:20:09,499 --> 00:20:10,933
He still has his tongue,
hasn't he Tristan?

335
00:20:10,957 --> 00:20:11,934
[Tristan] Yes, Your Majesty.

336
00:20:11,958 --> 00:20:14,957
Now do be sensible.

337
00:20:14,999 --> 00:20:17,433
After being watched for days
you were seen picking this up.

338
00:20:17,457 --> 00:20:19,392
You plucked it from the ground
and hurried off with it.

339
00:20:19,416 --> 00:20:22,207
You were followed first by one,
then a second, then a third.

340
00:20:22,249 --> 00:20:23,933
You took to your heels
but they brought you down.

341
00:20:23,957 --> 00:20:26,225
Now you'd better speak
while you can speak.

342
00:20:26,249 --> 00:20:27,666
Where were you taking it to?

343
00:20:29,082 --> 00:20:30,082
Where, I said where?

344
00:20:30,957 --> 00:20:31,957
Where?

345
00:20:33,457 --> 00:20:35,183
The landlord.

346
00:20:35,207 --> 00:20:37,666
The Fir Cone Tavern.

347
00:20:38,624 --> 00:20:40,517
Mercy, mercy.

348
00:20:40,541 --> 00:20:42,207
And for whom was it intended?

349
00:20:52,957 --> 00:20:55,058
Well, well, well.

350
00:20:55,082 --> 00:20:57,332
Very interesting, if true.

351
00:21:00,374 --> 00:21:03,017
Where is this, this Fir Cone Tavern?

352
00:21:03,041 --> 00:21:04,808
The Fir Cone Tavern, sire?

353
00:21:04,832 --> 00:21:06,558
Why it is in the court of miracles.

354
00:21:06,582 --> 00:21:07,642
A hell spot.

355
00:21:07,666 --> 00:21:10,392
Frequented by wantons,
cut-throats, beggars, thieves.

356
00:21:10,416 --> 00:21:11,416
The scum of Paris.

357
00:21:12,832 --> 00:21:14,082
Very interesting.

358
00:21:15,416 --> 00:21:16,475
Give him some water.

359
00:21:16,499 --> 00:21:17,642
Only a little.

360
00:21:17,666 --> 00:21:18,666
Come along.

361
00:21:23,541 --> 00:21:28,541
(light hearted music)
(people chattering)

362
00:21:44,791 --> 00:21:45,601
Sorry, masters.

363
00:21:45,625 --> 00:21:47,267
I have more here now than I can serve.

364
00:21:47,291 --> 00:21:48,624
Try some other tavern.

365
00:21:52,166 --> 00:21:54,892
Oh, yes, of course.

366
00:21:54,916 --> 00:21:57,832
Right this way, gentlemen, if you please.

367
00:22:01,249 --> 00:22:04,249
(people chattering)

368
00:22:11,957 --> 00:22:13,642
Be seated, gentlemen.

369
00:22:13,666 --> 00:22:15,808
Now, what is your pleasure, my master?

370
00:22:15,832 --> 00:22:17,475
A Demi-flagon of Burgundy.

371
00:22:17,499 --> 00:22:18,309
Let me have it.

372
00:22:18,333 --> 00:22:19,558
Out of sight, you numbskull.

373
00:22:19,582 --> 00:22:21,124
You want to have us all hanged?

374
00:22:22,041 --> 00:22:24,666
Give me the note and break
that shaft into kindling.

375
00:22:25,749 --> 00:22:27,142
A Demi-flagon of Burgundy.

376
00:22:27,166 --> 00:22:29,707
At once, my masters, at once.

377
00:22:32,082 --> 00:22:34,558
There is one for the gibbet.

378
00:22:34,582 --> 00:22:35,808
Eh, Tristan?

379
00:22:35,832 --> 00:22:38,183
But who is the other one, Sire?

380
00:22:38,207 --> 00:22:39,517
The traitor.

381
00:22:39,541 --> 00:22:40,558
Patience.

382
00:22:40,582 --> 00:22:42,892
I hesitate to even mention his name.

383
00:22:42,916 --> 00:22:44,475
Until I am quite certain.

384
00:22:44,499 --> 00:22:46,392
But the man confessed it to you.

385
00:22:46,416 --> 00:22:48,600
But under what persuasion?

386
00:22:48,624 --> 00:22:49,767
Under similar conditions I'd

387
00:22:49,791 --> 00:22:51,683
have confessed to the burning of Rome.

388
00:22:51,707 --> 00:22:53,041
Even to playing the fiddle.

389
00:22:53,957 --> 00:22:55,041
Hello, gentlemen.

390
00:22:56,957 --> 00:22:57,934
Get off my lap.

391
00:22:57,958 --> 00:22:59,933
Not until you buy me a drink, birdikins.

392
00:22:59,957 --> 00:23:01,808
Will you kindly remove yourself?

393
00:23:01,832 --> 00:23:03,666
Now, now, pussykins.

394
00:23:04,874 --> 00:23:07,207
Why don't you ignore her?

395
00:23:07,249 --> 00:23:09,017
[Man] The wine, gentlemen.

396
00:23:09,041 --> 00:23:11,267
Oh yes, and bring two big spice steaks.

397
00:23:11,291 --> 00:23:12,226
Hear, hear.

398
00:23:12,250 --> 00:23:13,392
And some bread and cheese.

399
00:23:13,416 --> 00:23:15,166
Your change, master.

400
00:23:19,582 --> 00:23:20,749
Lady please.

401
00:23:22,916 --> 00:23:25,350
Why, we can stay drunk
for a month on this.

402
00:23:25,374 --> 00:23:26,183
No, you must give that to me.

403
00:23:26,207 --> 00:23:27,184
Oh, no you don't.

404
00:23:27,208 --> 00:23:29,475
My generous lover.

405
00:23:29,499 --> 00:23:32,666
(light hearted music)

406
00:23:34,207 --> 00:23:35,207
Come on.

407
00:23:37,249 --> 00:23:38,249
Ah, Marie.

408
00:23:41,082 --> 00:23:42,475
Hello all of you.

409
00:23:42,499 --> 00:23:44,832
Food and wine for everybody.

410
00:23:47,207 --> 00:23:50,207
(people chattering)

411
00:23:56,916 --> 00:23:58,475
Take this food and wine out of here.

412
00:23:58,499 --> 00:23:59,600
Do you want to ruin my trade?

413
00:23:59,624 --> 00:24:01,267
Why not at all, my good Turgis.

414
00:24:01,291 --> 00:24:02,725
You supply the tankards.

415
00:24:02,749 --> 00:24:05,749
(audience laughing)

416
00:24:09,582 --> 00:24:10,393
Huguette.

417
00:24:10,417 --> 00:24:12,183
So sorry to see you in such bad company.

418
00:24:12,207 --> 00:24:15,666
And you, Colette with,
with Father Time himself.

419
00:24:16,707 --> 00:24:18,100
Oh, Father Time.

420
00:24:18,124 --> 00:24:21,100
Lay not thy thrust upon
this budding flower.

421
00:24:21,124 --> 00:24:23,308
On bitter seas are passion tossed.

422
00:24:23,332 --> 00:24:24,957
Forgive its tiny hour.

423
00:24:26,749 --> 00:24:28,225
And thou Huguette.

424
00:24:28,249 --> 00:24:32,892
Waste not thy heart upon
this juiceless mold.

425
00:24:32,916 --> 00:24:35,683
'Ere all thy fragrant youth depart

426
00:24:35,707 --> 00:24:39,225
and leave thee useless, old.

427
00:24:39,249 --> 00:24:41,183
Isn't that beautiful?

428
00:24:41,207 --> 00:24:42,767
Who is this cockroach?

429
00:24:42,791 --> 00:24:45,082
Why that's Francois Villon, the poet.

430
00:24:45,916 --> 00:24:47,725
A tinker of verses, gentlemen.

431
00:24:47,749 --> 00:24:48,767
No offense.

432
00:24:48,791 --> 00:24:50,707
Poetry is its own worst enemy.

433
00:24:50,749 --> 00:24:52,225
Come, join me in a bottle of wine.

434
00:24:52,249 --> 00:24:53,374
Fit for a king.

435
00:24:56,791 --> 00:24:59,791
(people chattering)

436
00:25:04,041 --> 00:25:06,207
Well here's to King Louis.

437
00:25:07,249 --> 00:25:08,707
May the hide rot in his carcass

438
00:25:08,749 --> 00:25:10,957
and may the Burgundians
take the city away from him.

439
00:25:10,999 --> 00:25:11,934
(audience laughing)

440
00:25:11,958 --> 00:25:14,933
Or better still, may they
take him away from the city.

441
00:25:14,957 --> 00:25:16,933
(audience laughing)

442
00:25:16,957 --> 00:25:19,475
For he who does nothing, gets nothing.

443
00:25:19,499 --> 00:25:23,100
And he who dares nothing,
deserves nothing.

444
00:25:23,124 --> 00:25:24,142
To King Nothing.

445
00:25:24,166 --> 00:25:26,308
(audience laughing)

446
00:25:26,332 --> 00:25:28,791
You drink more than is
good for you, my friend.

447
00:25:30,541 --> 00:25:32,933
What can a man do but drink
when France going to the devil

448
00:25:32,957 --> 00:25:35,058
and a nincompoop sits on the throne?

449
00:25:35,082 --> 00:25:38,249
I suppose you could do
better if you were king?

450
00:25:40,291 --> 00:25:42,475
I don't wish to appear
boastful, brother long-nose

451
00:25:42,499 --> 00:25:44,308
but I think a child of
two could do better.

452
00:25:44,332 --> 00:25:45,309
[Louis] Really?

453
00:25:45,333 --> 00:25:46,767
Really.

454
00:25:46,791 --> 00:25:48,683
Had I been born in a brocaded bed,

455
00:25:48,707 --> 00:25:51,308
I might have led armies and served France.

456
00:25:51,332 --> 00:25:52,808
As it is, you see me here

457
00:25:52,832 --> 00:25:55,392
consorting with cut-throats and wantons.

458
00:25:55,416 --> 00:25:58,100
And wasting my time on a
dull old buzzard like you.

459
00:25:58,124 --> 00:26:00,933
(audience laughing)

460
00:26:00,957 --> 00:26:05,957
Well, if it's so easy to
be king how would you begin?

461
00:26:06,082 --> 00:26:07,642
First, I would eat.

462
00:26:07,666 --> 00:26:09,350
Not common food like this of course.

463
00:26:09,374 --> 00:26:11,058
Something more suited to my station.

464
00:26:11,082 --> 00:26:14,183
Having fortified myself on
hummingbirds and goldfish.

465
00:26:14,207 --> 00:26:16,642
My next step would be to clean house.

466
00:26:16,666 --> 00:26:21,017
The vermin who infest the
palace I would hang in clusters.

467
00:26:21,041 --> 00:26:24,183
Ah, but you would
make exceptions surely?

468
00:26:24,207 --> 00:26:27,267
That, that kindly old hermit.

469
00:26:27,291 --> 00:26:29,207
Isn't his name Tristan?

470
00:26:31,749 --> 00:26:33,017
That old murderer?

471
00:26:33,041 --> 00:26:34,808
I'd hang him first.

472
00:26:34,832 --> 00:26:36,600
And suspend the others from his toes.

473
00:26:36,624 --> 00:26:39,457
(audience laughing)

474
00:26:39,499 --> 00:26:40,393
Well now.

475
00:26:40,417 --> 00:26:42,707
Leaving Tristan swinging in the breeze.

476
00:26:43,624 --> 00:26:44,832
What would you do next?

477
00:26:45,749 --> 00:26:47,683
Try to know my subjects.

478
00:26:47,707 --> 00:26:48,643
Try and earn their devotion

479
00:26:48,667 --> 00:26:50,957
and loyalty instead of their loathing.

480
00:26:50,999 --> 00:26:52,892
By abolishing taxes, I suppose?

481
00:26:52,916 --> 00:26:53,851
No.

482
00:26:53,875 --> 00:26:56,332
By abolishing despair
and substituting hope.

483
00:26:58,082 --> 00:27:00,683
By knowing the longings in their hearts.

484
00:27:00,707 --> 00:27:02,166
As a man of the people would.

485
00:27:03,749 --> 00:27:04,726
Seeing them as they are

486
00:27:04,750 --> 00:27:05,850
and admitting that their vices

487
00:27:05,874 --> 00:27:07,666
are as deep-rooted as their virtues.

488
00:27:08,624 --> 00:27:10,332
I would treat them as my children.

489
00:27:11,291 --> 00:27:12,541
Instead of as my enemies.

490
00:27:13,916 --> 00:27:16,100
So, by knowing the worst in them

491
00:27:16,124 --> 00:27:17,933
might bring out the best in them.

492
00:27:17,957 --> 00:27:20,517
You should have been
an orator, my friend.

493
00:27:20,541 --> 00:27:21,642
I am an orator.

494
00:27:21,666 --> 00:27:24,142
(audience laughing)

495
00:27:24,166 --> 00:27:26,433
Thank you, thank you, my subjects.

496
00:27:26,457 --> 00:27:28,416
Now where is that boar's head?

497
00:27:35,874 --> 00:27:37,267
Ah, my little dove.

498
00:27:37,291 --> 00:27:39,058
Which do you prefer,
the brains or the snoot?

499
00:27:39,082 --> 00:27:39,893
Francois.

500
00:27:39,917 --> 00:27:43,725
What would you do for me if you were king?

501
00:27:43,749 --> 00:27:45,308
For you?

502
00:27:45,332 --> 00:27:47,517
Beneath your feet, what
treasures I would fling.

503
00:27:47,541 --> 00:27:50,017
The stars shall be your
pearls upon a string.

504
00:27:50,041 --> 00:27:51,041
The world.

505
00:27:55,957 --> 00:27:59,267
The world a ruby for your finger ring.

506
00:27:59,291 --> 00:28:02,225
And you shall have the
sun and the moon to wear.

507
00:28:02,249 --> 00:28:03,767
If I were king.

508
00:28:03,791 --> 00:28:06,041
Would you do that for me?

509
00:28:08,916 --> 00:28:11,767
I said, when did you write that anyway?

510
00:28:11,791 --> 00:28:12,850
I never heard it.

511
00:28:12,874 --> 00:28:14,058
I don't remember.

512
00:28:14,082 --> 00:28:16,433
You lie like the seven
hounds of hell, you snake.

513
00:28:16,457 --> 00:28:17,892
You wrote it for some other wench.

514
00:28:17,916 --> 00:28:19,433
I swear on my hereditary honor...

515
00:28:19,457 --> 00:28:21,350
You haven't any hereditary honor.

516
00:28:21,374 --> 00:28:22,351
Oh?

517
00:28:22,375 --> 00:28:25,207
May the Stygian flames
burn my gun to a crisp

518
00:28:25,249 --> 00:28:26,850
and scatter the ashes in the Styx.

519
00:28:26,874 --> 00:28:28,808
You don't have to get poetic.

520
00:28:28,832 --> 00:28:30,642
You are a dirty liar and I can tell it

521
00:28:30,666 --> 00:28:32,017
by the look in your eye.

522
00:28:32,041 --> 00:28:34,350
You're a two-faced
double-dealing, deceiving brute

523
00:28:34,374 --> 00:28:38,207
and I only wish I could
think of something to.

524
00:28:40,166 --> 00:28:42,582
Here, clown, for your rhymes.

525
00:28:44,291 --> 00:28:45,291
Oh my.

526
00:28:46,582 --> 00:28:49,017
Thank you, Milady, that's
more than I usually get.

527
00:28:49,041 --> 00:28:52,183
I suppose you're going
to keep it, you dog.

528
00:28:52,207 --> 00:28:53,957
Francois, Francois!

529
00:28:55,332 --> 00:28:56,184
You must leave.

530
00:28:56,208 --> 00:28:57,392
Hurry, they came back.

531
00:28:57,416 --> 00:28:58,268
Who, the Watch?

532
00:28:58,292 --> 00:29:00,683
Yes, the guard at the
storehouse betrayed you.

533
00:29:00,707 --> 00:29:01,725
The tortured him.

534
00:29:01,749 --> 00:29:02,559
I told you you'd hang us all.

535
00:29:02,583 --> 00:29:04,642
The minute they left
I hurried along here

536
00:29:04,666 --> 00:29:06,433
on the chance of finding and warning you.

537
00:29:06,457 --> 00:29:08,249
And they followed you.

538
00:29:15,916 --> 00:29:18,558
We've done nothing wrong
here, Milord Constable.

539
00:29:18,582 --> 00:29:21,225
We obey the laws, we
pay His Majesty's taxes.

540
00:29:21,249 --> 00:29:22,059
You see?

541
00:29:22,083 --> 00:29:24,142
It is all receipted, Milord.

542
00:29:24,166 --> 00:29:25,874
You have but to glance at it.

543
00:29:28,999 --> 00:29:30,642
Don't you think it rather odd

544
00:29:30,666 --> 00:29:33,957
that my Grand Constable
should come here himself?

545
00:29:34,874 --> 00:29:36,933
You mean, that he?

546
00:29:36,957 --> 00:29:38,808
I'll take this with
me and examine it later.

547
00:29:38,832 --> 00:29:39,643
Yes.

548
00:29:39,667 --> 00:29:41,808
Do you have a rogue here named Villon?

549
00:29:41,832 --> 00:29:44,183
There he is, Milord.

550
00:29:44,207 --> 00:29:45,933
Francois, don't let them take you.

551
00:29:45,957 --> 00:29:47,142
Quick, quick.

552
00:29:47,166 --> 00:29:48,558
Down with the King!

553
00:29:48,582 --> 00:29:51,332
(dramatic music)

554
00:30:28,707 --> 00:30:31,041
Order, in the King's name.

555
00:30:34,124 --> 00:30:35,791
Drop your arms, all of you!

556
00:30:57,957 --> 00:30:58,957
Milord.

557
00:31:03,582 --> 00:31:06,183
A pretty night's work, Master Villon.

558
00:31:06,207 --> 00:31:07,874
D'Aussigny, Lafarge.

559
00:31:09,499 --> 00:31:12,166
So it was you my dear D'Aussigny.

560
00:31:13,832 --> 00:31:14,642
Take him out and hang him.

561
00:31:14,666 --> 00:31:15,476
No!

562
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:17,499
One moment, young man.

563
00:31:19,749 --> 00:31:22,017
Who are you to interfere
with the King's justice?

564
00:31:22,041 --> 00:31:23,832
I am the King's justice.

565
00:31:26,499 --> 00:31:27,957
Your Majesty.

566
00:31:31,749 --> 00:31:33,291
Long live the King.

567
00:31:37,666 --> 00:31:39,791
Greetings to you my loyal subjects.

568
00:31:43,457 --> 00:31:46,749
And especially to you, master philosopher.

569
00:31:47,666 --> 00:31:49,957
Kneel, Francois, the King.

570
00:31:53,124 --> 00:31:54,892
I'm afraid it's a
little late for etiquette.

571
00:31:54,916 --> 00:31:55,916
Quite so.

572
00:31:57,541 --> 00:31:59,142
Captain.

573
00:31:59,166 --> 00:32:01,975
Arrest the leaders and take
them to the palace dungeon.

574
00:32:01,999 --> 00:32:02,999
Your majesty.

575
00:32:34,832 --> 00:32:36,142
I knew there was something wrong

576
00:32:36,166 --> 00:32:38,100
the minute I sat in his lap.

577
00:32:38,124 --> 00:32:39,225
I suspected him.

578
00:32:39,249 --> 00:32:40,475
Well, if you suspected him

579
00:32:40,499 --> 00:32:41,476
why didn't you say something about it?

580
00:32:41,500 --> 00:32:44,267
Ah well, it doesn't matter anymore.

581
00:32:44,291 --> 00:32:45,642
Why did you have to insult him?

582
00:32:45,666 --> 00:32:47,475
Why couldn't you keep your mouth shut?

583
00:32:47,499 --> 00:32:49,558
Yes and the way you're
gonna hang everybody.

584
00:32:49,582 --> 00:32:50,393
Upside down and...

585
00:32:50,417 --> 00:32:51,582
You leave him alone, you.

586
00:32:53,541 --> 00:32:55,457
Can't you see he's writing poetry.

587
00:32:56,541 --> 00:32:58,933
A fine time to be writing poetry.

588
00:32:58,957 --> 00:33:00,767
What time could be finer?

589
00:33:00,791 --> 00:33:03,017
If a man isn't inspired by his own death

590
00:33:03,041 --> 00:33:04,850
he is beyond inspiration.

591
00:33:04,874 --> 00:33:06,600
Now here is our epitaph.

592
00:33:06,624 --> 00:33:08,207
Epitaph, what's that?

593
00:33:09,082 --> 00:33:11,767
Usually, something
good about somebody bad.

594
00:33:11,791 --> 00:33:13,350
After they are dead.

595
00:33:13,374 --> 00:33:14,933
Oh.

596
00:33:14,957 --> 00:33:16,975
Oh brother men who after us shall live.

597
00:33:16,999 --> 00:33:20,100
Let not your hearts be
hardened to our fate.

598
00:33:20,124 --> 00:33:23,017
For if some pity to ourselves he gives.

599
00:33:23,041 --> 00:33:25,957
Then shall yourselves
the warmer mercy rate.

600
00:33:27,374 --> 00:33:28,892
You see us here.

601
00:33:28,916 --> 00:33:31,850
Five, six, strung up in state.

602
00:33:31,874 --> 00:33:35,350
Once, good-lived flesh that
throbbed with blood and wine.

603
00:33:35,374 --> 00:33:39,767
And now the stench.

604
00:33:39,791 --> 00:33:42,267
Where worms and maggots dine.

605
00:33:42,291 --> 00:33:45,916
While we, the bones in moldy ashes fall.

606
00:33:47,749 --> 00:33:50,207
Let no-one laugh at our absurd design,

607
00:33:51,457 --> 00:33:54,082
but pray to God that he forgives us all.

608
00:33:55,249 --> 00:33:57,916
(door clatters)

609
00:34:02,166 --> 00:34:03,666
Francois Villon.

610
00:34:07,582 --> 00:34:08,582
Francois.

611
00:34:09,707 --> 00:34:11,392
Francois, don't leave me.

612
00:34:11,416 --> 00:34:13,517
I'm afraid I must.

613
00:34:13,541 --> 00:34:15,683
But I will come back, I always come back.

614
00:34:15,707 --> 00:34:17,082
But this time you won't.

615
00:34:18,999 --> 00:34:20,392
We'll meet again.

616
00:34:20,416 --> 00:34:22,183
Sometime, somewhere.

617
00:34:22,207 --> 00:34:23,433
I promise.

618
00:34:23,457 --> 00:34:25,850
Now, now smile.

619
00:34:25,874 --> 00:34:27,308
I want to remember you that way.

620
00:34:27,332 --> 00:34:28,332
Come on, smile.

621
00:34:29,832 --> 00:34:31,666
Then say something funny.

622
00:34:32,749 --> 00:34:33,749
Funny?

623
00:34:35,666 --> 00:34:38,475
Here goes Francois, child of France.

624
00:34:38,499 --> 00:34:40,933
To swing into his final dance.

625
00:34:40,957 --> 00:34:43,475
His neck at last shall have the chance

626
00:34:43,499 --> 00:34:45,767
to weigh the tonnage of his pants.

627
00:34:45,791 --> 00:34:48,457
(both laughing)

628
00:35:20,416 --> 00:35:23,082
Good morning, you may leave us.

629
00:35:26,457 --> 00:35:29,100
I suppose you're wondering
what I'm going to do with you.

630
00:35:29,124 --> 00:35:30,933
Your Majesty is not
the imaginative type.

631
00:35:30,957 --> 00:35:32,041
I can almost guess.

632
00:35:32,999 --> 00:35:34,808
Don't you think that's
rather a dangerous tone

633
00:35:34,832 --> 00:35:36,475
to use under the circumstances?

634
00:35:36,499 --> 00:35:38,600
What danger is there beyond hanging?

635
00:35:38,624 --> 00:35:39,624
What indeed.

636
00:35:40,416 --> 00:35:42,600
Compared with other
choicer forms of amusement,

637
00:35:42,624 --> 00:35:43,683
hanging becomes a pleasure.

638
00:35:43,707 --> 00:35:44,933
Hmm?

639
00:35:44,957 --> 00:35:46,017
I could have you boiled in oil

640
00:35:46,041 --> 00:35:47,433
or sliced or drawn and quartered

641
00:35:47,457 --> 00:35:49,892
and there are other tortures
that for the moment escape me.

642
00:35:49,916 --> 00:35:52,100
I beg Your Majesty's pardon.

643
00:35:52,124 --> 00:35:55,517
You should, especially as
I'm not going to hang you yet.

644
00:35:55,541 --> 00:35:56,518
Your Majesty.

645
00:35:56,542 --> 00:35:58,100
Now, now, now, don't get emotional.

646
00:35:58,124 --> 00:36:00,392
I am nothing if not a just man.

647
00:36:00,416 --> 00:36:02,308
Last night you did me a slight favor

648
00:36:02,332 --> 00:36:04,183
by ridding me of my chief traitor.

649
00:36:04,207 --> 00:36:06,058
Quite unintentionally, my friend.

650
00:36:06,082 --> 00:36:07,808
Nevertheless, you shall have your reward.

651
00:36:07,832 --> 00:36:09,475
Your Majesty will not know my gratitude.

652
00:36:09,499 --> 00:36:11,142
No, I probably won't.

653
00:36:11,166 --> 00:36:13,725
On the other hand you
did insult me publicly.

654
00:36:13,749 --> 00:36:15,725
You did make revolutionary speeches.

655
00:36:15,749 --> 00:36:17,558
Naming yourself as my successor.

656
00:36:17,582 --> 00:36:19,642
And you did rob my private storehouse

657
00:36:19,666 --> 00:36:21,558
and eat the loot right under my nose.

658
00:36:21,582 --> 00:36:23,517
I didn't know it was
Your Majesty's nose.

659
00:36:23,541 --> 00:36:25,350
But you knew it was my storehouse.

660
00:36:25,374 --> 00:36:26,642
And you topped off the evening

661
00:36:26,666 --> 00:36:30,558
by assassinating my Grand
Constable in cold blood.

662
00:36:30,582 --> 00:36:32,183
Yes.

663
00:36:32,207 --> 00:36:35,267
Yes, this places us on
the horns of a dilemma.

664
00:36:35,291 --> 00:36:36,933
Your Majesty admitted he was a traitor.

665
00:36:36,957 --> 00:36:38,683
Even so, he was still
my Grand Constable.

666
00:36:38,707 --> 00:36:39,600
So don't split hairs.

667
00:36:39,624 --> 00:36:40,476
But he started the fight.

668
00:36:40,500 --> 00:36:42,225
And you finished it.

669
00:36:42,249 --> 00:36:45,166
Leaving me to punish you and
reward you for the same deed.

670
00:36:47,416 --> 00:36:50,249
Something which would have
puzzled King Solomon himself.

671
00:36:51,291 --> 00:36:52,642
Of course you might hang me at one end

672
00:36:52,666 --> 00:36:54,082
and pin a medal on the other.

673
00:36:58,416 --> 00:37:02,392
A greater king would
hang you out of hand.

674
00:37:02,416 --> 00:37:04,041
A lesser king would forgive you.

675
00:37:04,916 --> 00:37:07,166
I probably fall somewhere between the two.

676
00:37:08,082 --> 00:37:10,017
And this is my decision.

677
00:37:10,041 --> 00:37:11,392
Since you have deprived me of

678
00:37:11,416 --> 00:37:12,892
the services of my Grand Constable.

679
00:37:12,916 --> 00:37:13,726
[Francois] I'm...

680
00:37:13,750 --> 00:37:15,058
Don't interrupt me.

681
00:37:15,082 --> 00:37:17,308
And since you think it so
easy to rule these carrion

682
00:37:17,332 --> 00:37:19,308
who call themselves my subjects.

683
00:37:19,332 --> 00:37:22,499
I hereby appoint you Grand
Constable of France and Brittany.

684
00:37:23,707 --> 00:37:25,558
Grand Constable?

685
00:37:25,582 --> 00:37:27,850
Defender of my crown,
Commander-in-Chief of my armies,

686
00:37:27,874 --> 00:37:29,183
and dispenser of justice.

687
00:37:29,207 --> 00:37:30,100
High, middle and low.

688
00:37:30,124 --> 00:37:31,058
Is this a jest?

689
00:37:31,082 --> 00:37:32,082
Not at all.

690
00:37:32,874 --> 00:37:35,183
Heretofore, I selected Grand Constables

691
00:37:35,207 --> 00:37:37,517
from the noble families of France.

692
00:37:37,541 --> 00:37:38,476
And they've all proved themselves

693
00:37:38,500 --> 00:37:39,933
either traitors or cowards.

694
00:37:39,957 --> 00:37:41,850
This time I am appointing
one from the people.

695
00:37:41,874 --> 00:37:44,475
It's true you come from
the gutter, my friend,

696
00:37:44,499 --> 00:37:47,707
but you have a certain
native sense of loyalty,

697
00:37:47,749 --> 00:37:50,308
courage and common knowledge.

698
00:37:50,332 --> 00:37:53,600
At least, it will prove
an interesting experiment.

699
00:37:53,624 --> 00:37:55,392
Oh yes, and of course you will
need a title to go with it.

700
00:37:55,416 --> 00:37:56,416
Get on your knees.

701
00:37:58,874 --> 00:38:00,392
I suppose this will have to do.

702
00:38:00,416 --> 00:38:02,082
Get down, get down, go on, go on.

703
00:38:03,166 --> 00:38:04,725
Francois.

704
00:38:04,749 --> 00:38:07,142
I dub thee Count de Montcorbier.

705
00:38:07,166 --> 00:38:09,124
Hereditary Knight of the Golden Buckle.

706
00:38:10,916 --> 00:38:12,916
Yes, and now I think you need a bath.

707
00:38:14,416 --> 00:38:16,832
(bell rings)

708
00:38:20,124 --> 00:38:22,291
Show the Count de
Montcorbier to his rooms.

709
00:38:23,624 --> 00:38:25,082
This way, Milord.

710
00:38:33,041 --> 00:38:35,100
(Francois laughs)

711
00:38:35,124 --> 00:38:36,207
Your Majesty.

712
00:38:37,124 --> 00:38:39,249
My Lord Grand Constable.

713
00:38:47,374 --> 00:38:50,124
(Louis laughing)

714
00:38:55,957 --> 00:38:59,166
(light hearted music)

715
00:39:06,957 --> 00:39:08,374
Milord Tristan.

716
00:39:15,374 --> 00:39:17,350
Your Majesty.

717
00:39:17,374 --> 00:39:19,850
My Lord Tristan, what
is all this I hear?

718
00:39:19,874 --> 00:39:21,183
D'Aussigny murdered?

719
00:39:21,207 --> 00:39:22,558
Yes, Your Majesty.

720
00:39:22,582 --> 00:39:23,767
How horrible.

721
00:39:23,791 --> 00:39:24,684
Yes, Your Majesty

722
00:39:24,708 --> 00:39:27,350
but what does it matter since
he was proven a traitor?

723
00:39:27,374 --> 00:39:29,642
Nevertheless, a very highborn traitor.

724
00:39:29,666 --> 00:39:31,725
I cannot understand His Majesty

725
00:39:31,749 --> 00:39:34,558
taking such terrible risks
to bring about his downfall.

726
00:39:34,582 --> 00:39:35,518
When he could so easily have

727
00:39:35,542 --> 00:39:37,933
disposed of him with a
cup of poisoned wine.

728
00:39:37,957 --> 00:39:40,058
[Tristan] I quite agree, Your Majesty.

729
00:39:40,082 --> 00:39:42,267
And the scoundrel that murdered him.

730
00:39:42,291 --> 00:39:43,475
Who was he?

731
00:39:43,499 --> 00:39:46,207
A cut-throat of the
first order, Your Majesty.

732
00:39:46,249 --> 00:39:49,892
A flea-bitten poet named Francois Villon.

733
00:39:49,916 --> 00:39:50,726
Francois Villon?

734
00:39:50,750 --> 00:39:52,666
What is it, my child?

735
00:39:54,249 --> 00:39:56,725
He is the one I told
you about, Your Majesty.

736
00:39:56,749 --> 00:39:58,975
The one who accosted me at the church.

737
00:39:58,999 --> 00:40:00,225
Ah, the scoundrel.

738
00:40:00,249 --> 00:40:02,058
Hanging is too good for him.

739
00:40:02,082 --> 00:40:02,893
I shall implore...

740
00:40:02,917 --> 00:40:04,249
I beg of Your Majesty not to.

741
00:40:05,291 --> 00:40:07,808
The poor fellow is in
enough trouble as it is.

742
00:40:07,832 --> 00:40:09,374
If Your Majesty will permit.

743
00:40:10,374 --> 00:40:12,457
The purpose of my visit is to inform you.

744
00:40:12,499 --> 00:40:15,100
That His Majesty requests the immediate

745
00:40:15,124 --> 00:40:17,350
attendance of the court in the throne room

746
00:40:17,374 --> 00:40:19,683
to meet with the new Grand Constable.

747
00:40:19,707 --> 00:40:21,683
[Queen] The new Grand Constable?

748
00:40:21,707 --> 00:40:22,933
Who is he?

749
00:40:22,957 --> 00:40:25,666
The Count de Montcorbier, your Majesty.

750
00:40:27,541 --> 00:40:30,291
If may say so, Your
Excellency is greatly improved.

751
00:40:31,166 --> 00:40:32,600
Thank you, Oliver.

752
00:40:32,624 --> 00:40:33,434
I'm glad you think so.

753
00:40:33,458 --> 00:40:34,791
I feel as slippery as a worm.

754
00:40:36,082 --> 00:40:37,308
And your quarters, Your Excellency?

755
00:40:37,332 --> 00:40:38,933
I trust Your Excellency approves of them?

756
00:40:38,957 --> 00:40:40,100
My Excellency approves.

757
00:40:40,124 --> 00:40:42,725
Very nice, very nice.

758
00:40:42,749 --> 00:40:45,308
I suppose I have larger rooms
for more formal occasions.

759
00:40:45,332 --> 00:40:46,808
Why of course, Your Excellency.

760
00:40:46,832 --> 00:40:49,642
You have your state chambers,
your private trial room.

761
00:40:49,666 --> 00:40:51,017
Your personal torture chamber.

762
00:40:51,041 --> 00:40:51,851
And your...

763
00:40:51,875 --> 00:40:53,558
That is enough.

764
00:40:53,582 --> 00:40:55,642
Now what do I do?

765
00:40:55,666 --> 00:40:57,225
Do, Your Excellency?

766
00:40:57,249 --> 00:40:58,517
You govern.

767
00:40:58,541 --> 00:40:59,808
You govern France.

768
00:40:59,832 --> 00:41:01,541
Oh yes, of course, I govern.

769
00:41:06,707 --> 00:41:10,225
Do you spell de Montcorbier
with a small or capital 'D'?

770
00:41:10,249 --> 00:41:11,058
Small.

771
00:41:11,082 --> 00:41:12,058
Small.

772
00:41:12,082 --> 00:41:13,082
Milord.

773
00:41:14,416 --> 00:41:17,058
Now, we had better
start at the beginning.

774
00:41:17,082 --> 00:41:19,933
We're still besieged by
the Burgundians I believe.

775
00:41:19,957 --> 00:41:21,957
At last reports, we
were Your Excellency.

776
00:41:21,999 --> 00:41:23,600
Well, that takes care of that.

777
00:41:23,624 --> 00:41:26,433
Now the food situation.

778
00:41:26,457 --> 00:41:28,249
Ah, we have enough for six months.

779
00:41:29,082 --> 00:41:31,517
Well, that seems to take care of that.

780
00:41:31,541 --> 00:41:32,957
Who has enough for six months?

781
00:41:32,999 --> 00:41:35,183
[Oliver] Why the palace
and the army, Milord.

782
00:41:35,207 --> 00:41:37,207
And what about the people?

783
00:41:37,249 --> 00:41:38,249
The people?

784
00:41:39,124 --> 00:41:41,433
Oh, you mean the people?

785
00:41:41,457 --> 00:41:43,433
Yes, that's who I mean.

786
00:41:43,457 --> 00:41:46,850
The people are hardly a
military factor, Milord.

787
00:41:46,874 --> 00:41:48,332
No, of course not.

788
00:41:52,124 --> 00:41:53,183
Now tell me, my friend.

789
00:41:53,207 --> 00:41:56,058
How does a Grand
Constable fill up his day?

790
00:41:56,082 --> 00:41:57,892
Well first he inspects the guard.

791
00:41:57,916 --> 00:42:00,183
Reports to His Majesty, attends levies.

792
00:42:00,207 --> 00:42:02,392
And tries all prisoners
both civil and military.

793
00:42:02,416 --> 00:42:03,933
Prisoners?

794
00:42:03,957 --> 00:42:05,725
Have we no prisoners today?

795
00:42:05,749 --> 00:42:07,475
Only those arrested last night

796
00:42:07,499 --> 00:42:10,017
at the Fir Cone Tavern, Your Excellency.

797
00:42:10,041 --> 00:42:11,392
What, are they still here?

798
00:42:11,416 --> 00:42:13,100
[Oliver] Of course.

799
00:42:13,124 --> 00:42:14,850
And I'm expected to try them?

800
00:42:14,874 --> 00:42:15,684
[Oliver] Of course.

801
00:42:15,708 --> 00:42:17,392
Ha-ha, when?

802
00:42:17,416 --> 00:42:20,142
At your convenience, there is no hurry.

803
00:42:20,166 --> 00:42:21,166
No hurry?

804
00:42:21,916 --> 00:42:24,267
If you had been shut
up in a slimy dungeon.

805
00:42:24,291 --> 00:42:27,308
Fearful, hopeless, thinking
each moment were your last.

806
00:42:27,332 --> 00:42:29,475
You would know whether
there was any hurry or not.

807
00:42:29,499 --> 00:42:32,957
I, I meant no offense, Your Excellency.

808
00:42:32,999 --> 00:42:34,207
No of course not, you.

809
00:42:35,374 --> 00:42:37,850
Your worst offense is surely ignorance.

810
00:42:37,874 --> 00:42:39,475
Come, let's try the prisoners immediately.

811
00:42:39,499 --> 00:42:42,082
Yes, Milord, this way, Milord.

812
00:42:48,249 --> 00:42:49,058
This way.

813
00:42:49,082 --> 00:42:50,059
Milord.

814
00:42:50,083 --> 00:42:51,933
His Majesty's compliments.

815
00:42:51,957 --> 00:42:52,934
And will you attend him

816
00:42:52,958 --> 00:42:55,183
in the throne room to meet the court.

817
00:42:55,207 --> 00:42:56,892
My compliments to His Majesty

818
00:42:56,916 --> 00:42:58,600
but I have some prisoners
to try immediately.

819
00:42:58,624 --> 00:42:59,808
But, Milord.

820
00:42:59,832 --> 00:43:03,142
I hardly think His Majesty
will enjoy being kept waiting.

821
00:43:03,166 --> 00:43:04,850
Neither would the prisoners.

822
00:43:04,874 --> 00:43:05,874
Come on, Oliver.

823
00:43:06,666 --> 00:43:07,666
But, Milord.

824
00:43:12,332 --> 00:43:15,332
(people chattering)

825
00:43:17,249 --> 00:43:19,808
Yes, yes, he comes from Nancy.

826
00:43:19,832 --> 00:43:22,892
But if Mr. Montcorbier comes
from Nancy, Your Majesty.

827
00:43:22,916 --> 00:43:25,308
How did he get through
the Burgundian lines?

828
00:43:25,332 --> 00:43:28,517
Well, there is such a thing
as a Flag of Truce, my dear.

829
00:43:28,541 --> 00:43:30,183
A Flag of Truce?

830
00:43:30,207 --> 00:43:31,541
Oh, but of course.

831
00:43:38,957 --> 00:43:39,957
Well?

832
00:43:53,624 --> 00:43:54,892
Well, well, well.

833
00:43:54,916 --> 00:43:56,957
Your Majesty, my Lords and Ladies.

834
00:43:56,999 --> 00:43:58,642
The court will remain assembled.

835
00:43:58,666 --> 00:43:59,666
Come along.

836
00:44:06,374 --> 00:44:07,374
Milord.

837
00:44:16,291 --> 00:44:17,600
Your Excellency.

838
00:44:17,624 --> 00:44:19,267
The prisoners before you

839
00:44:19,291 --> 00:44:21,892
are charged with violating the curfew.

840
00:44:21,916 --> 00:44:26,017
Assault and battery,
suspicion of conspiracy.

841
00:44:26,041 --> 00:44:28,308
Suspicion of having participated

842
00:44:28,332 --> 00:44:31,308
in the robbery of the King's storehouse.

843
00:44:31,332 --> 00:44:33,683
Receiving stolen goods,

844
00:44:33,707 --> 00:44:36,749
and showing armed resistance to arrest.

845
00:44:38,457 --> 00:44:40,416
[Francois] Give me their names.

846
00:44:47,249 --> 00:44:48,624
Robin Turgis.

847
00:44:50,374 --> 00:44:51,767
Yes, Your Majesty?

848
00:44:51,791 --> 00:44:54,267
I didn't have anything to
do with it your dignity.

849
00:44:54,291 --> 00:44:55,767
All I did was receive a paper

850
00:44:55,791 --> 00:44:57,267
from one man and give it to another man.

851
00:44:57,291 --> 00:44:59,058
And I hadn't the slightest idea

852
00:44:59,082 --> 00:45:00,767
it had anything to do with the enemy.

853
00:45:00,791 --> 00:45:01,874
So help me.

854
00:45:03,541 --> 00:45:05,767
And yet your received
a hundred gold pieces

855
00:45:05,791 --> 00:45:07,433
for each transaction I believe.

856
00:45:07,457 --> 00:45:08,808
That is a lie, Your Dignity.

857
00:45:08,832 --> 00:45:10,600
All I got was ten.

858
00:45:10,624 --> 00:45:12,642
If anybody got a hundred
pieces it wasn't me,

859
00:45:12,666 --> 00:45:14,558
all I got was ten.

860
00:45:14,582 --> 00:45:17,142
I only did it five times.

861
00:45:17,166 --> 00:45:19,475
I've got fifty pieces here to prove it.

862
00:45:19,499 --> 00:45:21,749
Because I wouldn't touch the filthy money.

863
00:45:24,416 --> 00:45:27,433
Robin Turgis, you are a thief.

864
00:45:27,457 --> 00:45:32,457
A receiver of stolen goods,
conspirator, and worst of all,

865
00:45:32,916 --> 00:45:35,558
you water your wine.

866
00:45:35,582 --> 00:45:36,433
But Milord.

867
00:45:36,457 --> 00:45:37,457
Silence!

868
00:45:39,916 --> 00:45:41,433
If I had it within my power

869
00:45:41,457 --> 00:45:43,933
I would have you all hanged and strangled.

870
00:45:43,957 --> 00:45:45,850
Roasted over a slow fire

871
00:45:45,874 --> 00:45:48,874
and boiled in your own diluted wine.

872
00:45:49,832 --> 00:45:54,350
However, his Sovereign Majesty, Louis XI,

873
00:45:54,374 --> 00:45:57,725
defender of the faith and
champion of the people

874
00:45:57,749 --> 00:46:01,558
has decided on a new
policy of extreme mercy.

875
00:46:01,582 --> 00:46:05,707
So I am reluctantly
constrained to fine you,

876
00:46:05,749 --> 00:46:07,683
oh, fifty gold pieces.

877
00:46:07,707 --> 00:46:10,041
Which you will pay to
the Captain of the Watch.

878
00:46:12,916 --> 00:46:16,041
Does, does that mean that I am free?

879
00:46:17,374 --> 00:46:19,017
It means you are entirely free.

880
00:46:19,041 --> 00:46:20,392
Now get out.

881
00:46:20,416 --> 00:46:25,416
Free!

882
00:46:25,916 --> 00:46:28,725
Long live the king!

883
00:46:28,749 --> 00:46:30,332
Long live the king!

884
00:46:31,457 --> 00:46:33,041
Long live the king!

885
00:46:34,291 --> 00:46:35,874
Long live the king!

886
00:46:43,582 --> 00:46:46,582
Next we have Rene de Montigny.

887
00:46:47,541 --> 00:46:52,374
Guy Tabarie, Colin De Cayeulx,
Casin Cholet, Jehan LeLoup.

888
00:46:58,582 --> 00:47:01,791
As fine a bunch of
rascals as I've ever seen.

889
00:47:03,624 --> 00:47:05,082
Are you guilty or not-guilty?

890
00:47:06,082 --> 00:47:07,683
There must be some mistake Milord.

891
00:47:07,707 --> 00:47:08,518
Not guilty, Your Honor.

892
00:47:08,542 --> 00:47:09,558
I was home in bed.

893
00:47:09,582 --> 00:47:10,892
I'm only a poor locksmith.

894
00:47:10,916 --> 00:47:12,142
And I studied for the cloth.

895
00:47:12,166 --> 00:47:13,166
Silence!

896
00:47:13,874 --> 00:47:16,517
Rene De Montigny, you were seen leaving

897
00:47:16,541 --> 00:47:18,017
the kings storehouse in company

898
00:47:18,041 --> 00:47:19,850
with the gentleman on your left.

899
00:47:19,874 --> 00:47:23,558
And that arch-rogue, Francois Villon.

900
00:47:23,582 --> 00:47:25,017
That's a lie, Your Honour.

901
00:47:25,041 --> 00:47:26,350
Villon was with me all the time

902
00:47:26,374 --> 00:47:28,267
the storehouse was being robbed.

903
00:47:28,291 --> 00:47:30,558
[François] Oh, and how did you know

904
00:47:30,582 --> 00:47:32,225
the storehouse was being robbed?

905
00:47:32,249 --> 00:47:33,767
You just said so.

906
00:47:33,791 --> 00:47:34,933
Didn't he say so?

907
00:47:34,957 --> 00:47:36,558
I don't know anything about it.

908
00:47:36,582 --> 00:47:37,850
I was home in bed.

909
00:47:37,874 --> 00:47:39,142
[Francois] Ladies, ladies.

910
00:47:39,166 --> 00:47:41,600
You must not disrupt the
dignity of this court.

911
00:47:41,624 --> 00:47:42,624
[Man] Silence!

912
00:47:43,832 --> 00:47:47,350
Now, Rene De Montigny.

913
00:47:47,374 --> 00:47:50,142
Did you rob the King's
storehouse or didn't you?

914
00:47:50,166 --> 00:47:51,933
Storehouse?

915
00:47:51,957 --> 00:47:53,933
I didn't even know he had a storehouse.

916
00:47:53,957 --> 00:47:54,768
Neither did I.

917
00:47:54,792 --> 00:47:56,808
I'm just a poor but honest locksmith.

918
00:47:56,832 --> 00:47:57,933
And I was home in bed.

919
00:47:57,957 --> 00:47:59,308
So was I.

920
00:47:59,332 --> 00:48:00,707
We were all in bed.

921
00:48:04,291 --> 00:48:06,142
It's become more and more evident

922
00:48:06,166 --> 00:48:08,600
that a grave injustice has been committed.

923
00:48:08,624 --> 00:48:10,517
Since you were all home in bed.

924
00:48:10,541 --> 00:48:14,058
You can't possibly have robbed
His Majesty's storehouse.

925
00:48:14,082 --> 00:48:17,517
Probably, this Villon
did it all by himself.

926
00:48:17,541 --> 00:48:18,683
That's a lie.

927
00:48:18,707 --> 00:48:19,850
He was with me I tell you.

928
00:48:19,874 --> 00:48:21,541
I won't ask you where.

929
00:48:26,499 --> 00:48:29,416
Now, if you will let me
finish what I was saying.

930
00:48:30,416 --> 00:48:32,933
Since it's apparent you are all innocent

931
00:48:32,957 --> 00:48:35,707
and have in consequence
suffered false imprisonment.

932
00:48:35,749 --> 00:48:39,017
I'm unfortunately obliged
to award you damages.

933
00:48:39,041 --> 00:48:40,683
Much as it pains me.

934
00:48:40,707 --> 00:48:44,100
I decree that you shall each
receive seven gold pieces.

935
00:48:44,124 --> 00:48:45,332
The Captain of the Watch

936
00:48:46,791 --> 00:48:48,225
has in his charge 50 gold pieces.

937
00:48:48,249 --> 00:48:51,975
Seven times seven being, 49.

938
00:48:51,999 --> 00:48:53,267
There will be one piece left over

939
00:48:53,291 --> 00:48:55,142
which you will give to the poor, Captain.

940
00:48:55,166 --> 00:48:57,166
Without failure, Excellency.

941
00:49:02,291 --> 00:49:05,392
Long live the king, long live the king!

942
00:49:05,416 --> 00:49:08,666
Long live the king, long live the king!

943
00:49:09,957 --> 00:49:10,957
Silence!

944
00:49:12,249 --> 00:49:15,558
I echo your sentiments
regarding the life of the king.

945
00:49:15,582 --> 00:49:17,558
But do not be deceived.

946
00:49:17,582 --> 00:49:20,100
His Majesty is not hoodwinked.

947
00:49:20,124 --> 00:49:22,475
If he forgives you in this instance,

948
00:49:22,499 --> 00:49:25,350
it is because he knows
also that you were hungry.

949
00:49:25,374 --> 00:49:27,892
And he hopes that his kindness towards you

950
00:49:27,916 --> 00:49:31,517
will breed a little
decency in your own hearts,

951
00:49:31,541 --> 00:49:33,642
which I doubt.

952
00:49:33,666 --> 00:49:35,124
Now, get out!

953
00:49:36,291 --> 00:49:37,666
Long live the king!

954
00:49:42,457 --> 00:49:44,267
Could I ask a question, Milord?

955
00:49:44,291 --> 00:49:45,350
No you may not.

956
00:49:45,374 --> 00:49:47,058
Just one moment, Captain.

957
00:49:47,082 --> 00:49:48,082
You may go.

958
00:49:49,707 --> 00:49:50,707
Milord.

959
00:49:56,874 --> 00:49:58,291
What is it, my child?

960
00:50:03,166 --> 00:50:05,933
Could you tell me if Villon is safe?

961
00:50:05,957 --> 00:50:07,666
At the present time, yes.

962
00:50:08,499 --> 00:50:11,475
Thank heaven and God bless His Majesty.

963
00:50:11,499 --> 00:50:12,499
Amen to that.

964
00:50:13,332 --> 00:50:15,374
Why are you so interested in this rascal?

965
00:50:16,541 --> 00:50:17,808
Because I love him.

966
00:50:17,832 --> 00:50:21,183
Oh he's a dog if there ever there was one.

967
00:50:21,207 --> 00:50:22,517
But I love him.

968
00:50:22,541 --> 00:50:24,308
He doesn't deserve it.

969
00:50:24,332 --> 00:50:25,850
I know that.

970
00:50:25,874 --> 00:50:27,892
Your name is Huguette, isn't it?

971
00:50:27,916 --> 00:50:29,267
Yes, Your Honor.

972
00:50:29,291 --> 00:50:31,017
Villon spoke to me about you.

973
00:50:31,041 --> 00:50:33,100
He said you might ask
about him and if you did

974
00:50:33,124 --> 00:50:36,041
to tell you he doesn't
deserve your affection,

975
00:50:37,416 --> 00:50:38,749
and to give you this ring.

976
00:50:46,291 --> 00:50:47,791
Isn't he wonderful.

977
00:50:49,457 --> 00:50:50,666
Thank you, Milord.

978
00:50:51,666 --> 00:50:53,166
I wonder who he stole it from.

979
00:50:55,832 --> 00:50:57,892
Will they free him too?

980
00:50:57,916 --> 00:50:59,642
[François] Oh, probably.

981
00:50:59,666 --> 00:51:01,642
Thank you Milord, for all your kindness.

982
00:51:01,666 --> 00:51:04,249
(gentle music)

983
00:51:22,457 --> 00:51:24,933
Good morning, My Lord.

984
00:51:24,957 --> 00:51:28,308
Oh Tristan, how do you
like my new magnanimity?

985
00:51:28,332 --> 00:51:30,808
I think Your Majesty will
live to regret the whole joke.

986
00:51:30,832 --> 00:51:32,100
The trouble with you Tristan is

987
00:51:32,124 --> 00:51:33,767
that you have no sense of humor.

988
00:51:33,791 --> 00:51:35,892
You are looking at a new Louis, Tristan.

989
00:51:35,916 --> 00:51:37,683
You have just seen my new method

990
00:51:37,707 --> 00:51:40,017
of dealing with habitual criminals.

991
00:51:40,041 --> 00:51:43,541
We don't hang them, we
cover them with gold.

992
00:51:44,374 --> 00:51:46,350
And now, my dear Lord Constable.

993
00:51:46,374 --> 00:51:48,892
Would you deign to meet
my Queen and my Court

994
00:51:48,916 --> 00:51:51,933
before they collapse
from utter exhaustion?

995
00:51:51,957 --> 00:51:53,082
Your Majesty.

996
00:51:54,666 --> 00:51:57,207
My Lord Grand Constable.

997
00:52:00,416 --> 00:52:02,517
[Man] His Majesty the King.

998
00:52:02,541 --> 00:52:05,291
(dramatic music)

999
00:52:16,041 --> 00:52:19,475
My dear, this is the
Count de Montcorbier.

1000
00:52:19,499 --> 00:52:20,499
My Lord.

1001
00:52:22,582 --> 00:52:24,267
I can't see him very well.

1002
00:52:24,291 --> 00:52:25,600
What does he look like?

1003
00:52:25,624 --> 00:52:26,624
My Lord.

1004
00:52:28,416 --> 00:52:31,475
My Lord D'Asteurbine, the
Provost Marshall of Paris.

1005
00:52:31,499 --> 00:52:32,434
My Lord.

1006
00:52:32,458 --> 00:52:33,517
Monsignor De Grigney.

1007
00:52:33,541 --> 00:52:34,351
My Lord.

1008
00:52:34,375 --> 00:52:36,600
And the Count Conflere.

1009
00:52:36,624 --> 00:52:37,624
My Lord.

1010
00:52:39,041 --> 00:52:43,183
General Barbezier, General
Dudon, General Saliere.

1011
00:52:43,207 --> 00:52:44,600
The Count de Montcorbier.

1012
00:52:44,624 --> 00:52:45,975
I was saying Your Majesty that I am not

1013
00:52:45,999 --> 00:52:48,892
familiar with the name de Montcorbier.

1014
00:52:48,916 --> 00:52:50,874
Though heraldry is my dearest hobby.

1015
00:52:51,707 --> 00:52:54,558
Well, I can't say the same
for the name of Dudon, General.

1016
00:52:54,582 --> 00:52:56,600
Ever since you won the battle of Montlhéry

1017
00:52:56,624 --> 00:52:59,392
I have watched your success
with increasing enthusiasm.

1018
00:52:59,416 --> 00:53:04,267
But I, I did not win
the battle of Montlhéry.

1019
00:53:04,291 --> 00:53:07,100
Oh yes, yes, of course,
yes, you lost it, yes.

1020
00:53:07,124 --> 00:53:08,600
But there was the siege of Liege.

1021
00:53:08,624 --> 00:53:11,183
We lost that one too, my dear Count.

1022
00:53:11,207 --> 00:53:12,207
Oh did we?

1023
00:53:12,957 --> 00:53:14,683
I am so sorry.

1024
00:53:14,707 --> 00:53:16,267
Come along, come along.

1025
00:53:16,291 --> 00:53:19,041
We must talk about your
battles some other time, General.

1026
00:53:23,874 --> 00:53:27,308
Duchess De Longée, Vicomte de Grachiria.

1027
00:53:27,332 --> 00:53:29,166
Senator of Paris, the Count de Mont...

1028
00:53:34,957 --> 00:53:36,225
You must think this rude of me

1029
00:53:36,249 --> 00:53:40,308
but my name is De Montcorbier.

1030
00:53:40,332 --> 00:53:41,143
Silly, isn't it?

1031
00:53:41,167 --> 00:53:43,374
I looked at you and I
nearly forgot my name.

1032
00:53:44,332 --> 00:53:46,100
No doubt Your Lordship has many

1033
00:53:46,124 --> 00:53:47,267
important things on his mind.

1034
00:53:47,291 --> 00:53:48,101
No, no, no, no.

1035
00:53:48,125 --> 00:53:49,725
I have nothing on my mind at all.

1036
00:53:49,749 --> 00:53:51,267
You just affect me that way.

1037
00:53:51,291 --> 00:53:53,624
I had no idea that you, that I.

1038
00:53:54,541 --> 00:53:55,624
Do you live here?

1039
00:53:56,874 --> 00:53:59,767
I'm one of Her Majesty's
ladies-in-waiting.

1040
00:53:59,791 --> 00:54:01,517
What a fortunate queen.

1041
00:54:01,541 --> 00:54:04,183
Do you know, the moment I set
eyes on you I said to myself

1042
00:54:04,207 --> 00:54:06,558
there is all the beauty in the universe.

1043
00:54:06,582 --> 00:54:08,017
Past, present and future.

1044
00:54:08,041 --> 00:54:10,308
Personified and embodied
in this exquisite creature.

1045
00:54:10,332 --> 00:54:11,808
Milord.

1046
00:54:11,832 --> 00:54:13,558
What is it?

1047
00:54:13,582 --> 00:54:15,058
What is what, Milord?

1048
00:54:15,082 --> 00:54:16,892
The name of all this loveliness.

1049
00:54:16,916 --> 00:54:17,916
Milord.

1050
00:54:19,499 --> 00:54:22,291
My name is Katherine DeVaucelles.

1051
00:54:23,374 --> 00:54:24,933
What a beautiful name.

1052
00:54:24,957 --> 00:54:27,749
(dramatic music)

1053
00:54:38,207 --> 00:54:39,018
Your Majesty.

1054
00:54:39,042 --> 00:54:40,433
A Herald from the Duke of Burgundy

1055
00:54:40,457 --> 00:54:42,808
has entered the city
under a Flag of Truce.

1056
00:54:42,832 --> 00:54:44,249
He demands audience.

1057
00:54:47,457 --> 00:54:48,999
Admit the Herald of Burgundy.

1058
00:54:53,874 --> 00:54:55,017
Your Majesty.

1059
00:54:55,041 --> 00:54:57,017
If the terms of surrender
are at all reasonable,

1060
00:54:57,041 --> 00:54:59,350
I should be very tempted to accept.

1061
00:54:59,374 --> 00:55:00,184
Would you?

1062
00:55:00,208 --> 00:55:02,100
The army is extremely
unsettled, Your Majesty.

1063
00:55:02,124 --> 00:55:03,767
Desertions every day, Your Majesty.

1064
00:55:03,791 --> 00:55:04,601
Thank you.

1065
00:55:04,625 --> 00:55:06,291
I shall remember what you have said.

1066
00:55:09,291 --> 00:55:12,041
(dramatic music)

1067
00:55:17,041 --> 00:55:19,124
The herald of Burgundy.

1068
00:55:33,124 --> 00:55:35,683
You have something to say, Sir Herald?

1069
00:55:35,707 --> 00:55:37,291
[Herald] I have, Your Majesty.

1070
00:55:38,374 --> 00:55:40,183
Then say it, my friend.

1071
00:55:40,207 --> 00:55:42,683
In the name of the Duke
of Burgundy and his allies,

1072
00:55:42,707 --> 00:55:46,058
assembled in overwhelming forces
outside the walls of Paris,

1073
00:55:46,082 --> 00:55:50,183
I hereby summon you, Louis of France,

1074
00:55:50,207 --> 00:55:52,558
to surrender this city unconditionally

1075
00:55:52,582 --> 00:55:56,666
and to throw yourself in
confidence, upon my master's mercy.

1076
00:55:57,707 --> 00:55:59,600
And if I refuse, Sir Herald?

1077
00:55:59,624 --> 00:56:01,850
For the city, famine until the end.

1078
00:56:01,874 --> 00:56:03,558
Then fire and the sword.

1079
00:56:03,582 --> 00:56:06,666
For yourself, no hope of pardon.

1080
00:56:11,499 --> 00:56:13,308
And if I surrender the city?

1081
00:56:13,332 --> 00:56:15,142
For yourself and your court,

1082
00:56:15,166 --> 00:56:17,808
an honorable retreat to
the Duchy of Epignée.

1083
00:56:17,832 --> 00:56:20,957
(Francois laughs)

1084
00:56:20,999 --> 00:56:23,725
You mean a dishonorable retreat.

1085
00:56:23,749 --> 00:56:25,207
Who are you?

1086
00:56:25,249 --> 00:56:27,142
The Count de Montcorbier.

1087
00:56:27,166 --> 00:56:30,433
Knight of the Golden Buckle,
Grand Constable of France.

1088
00:56:30,457 --> 00:56:33,225
Chief of the armies,
dispenser of all justice,

1089
00:56:33,249 --> 00:56:35,058
high, middle and low.

1090
00:56:35,082 --> 00:56:37,082
No, no, no, don't bother to look around.

1091
00:56:38,082 --> 00:56:41,541
I am replacing the traitor who
was in your master's employ.

1092
00:56:43,374 --> 00:56:45,767
And don't make any more
movements like that

1093
00:56:45,791 --> 00:56:47,600
or I will have you hanged

1094
00:56:47,624 --> 00:56:49,582
and sent back to your master in a bag.

1095
00:56:51,166 --> 00:56:53,058
You have bad manners, my friend

1096
00:56:53,082 --> 00:56:54,808
and you rate yourself too highly.

1097
00:56:54,832 --> 00:56:57,475
You are not the envoy
of a conquering hero.

1098
00:56:57,499 --> 00:56:59,933
But the servant of a group
of shabby little vassals.

1099
00:56:59,957 --> 00:57:02,392
Rebellious serfs of a noble lord.

1100
00:57:02,416 --> 00:57:05,517
Now, go back and tell them this.

1101
00:57:05,541 --> 00:57:07,600
Kings are great in the
eyes of their people

1102
00:57:07,624 --> 00:57:09,933
but the people are great
in the eyes of God.

1103
00:57:09,957 --> 00:57:13,142
And it is the people of France
who are speaking to you now.

1104
00:57:13,166 --> 00:57:15,350
We are well armed and provisioned.

1105
00:57:15,374 --> 00:57:17,517
We are warm and comfortable
behind our strong walls,

1106
00:57:17,541 --> 00:57:19,267
we laugh at your threats.

1107
00:57:19,291 --> 00:57:23,933
But if we who eat were starved,
if we who drink were dry,

1108
00:57:23,957 --> 00:57:26,100
if we who are warm were frozen,

1109
00:57:26,124 --> 00:57:28,642
our answer would still be the same.

1110
00:57:28,666 --> 00:57:31,957
We laugh at you, we, the
people, and the King.

1111
00:57:33,457 --> 00:57:35,100
And this is your answer?

1112
00:57:35,124 --> 00:57:36,416
No.

1113
00:57:37,541 --> 00:57:38,582
No, not all.

1114
00:57:39,416 --> 00:57:42,017
We give you one week
to disband and get out.

1115
00:57:42,041 --> 00:57:43,183
If at the end of the week you are still

1116
00:57:43,207 --> 00:57:44,957
cluttering up the outskirts of our city

1117
00:57:44,999 --> 00:57:48,267
we will attack and destroy
you to the last man.

1118
00:57:48,291 --> 00:57:51,308
Now, we don't wish to be annoyed further.

1119
00:57:51,332 --> 00:57:53,582
But, but Your Majesty.

1120
00:57:54,999 --> 00:57:57,308
You heard My Lord Grand Constable.

1121
00:57:57,332 --> 00:57:59,308
[Francois] Get out.

1122
00:57:59,332 --> 00:58:00,309
Yes.

1123
00:58:00,333 --> 00:58:02,433
There is nothing else you can do.

1124
00:58:02,457 --> 00:58:03,850
Get out.

1125
00:58:03,874 --> 00:58:06,457
(Louis laughs)

1126
00:58:07,291 --> 00:58:10,291
(audience laughing)

1127
00:58:24,332 --> 00:58:26,916
(gentle music)

1128
00:58:42,416 --> 00:58:43,892
But what do you think, Milord?

1129
00:58:43,916 --> 00:58:45,600
Will the Burgundians retreat or,

1130
00:58:45,624 --> 00:58:48,142
or will they stay and be slaughtered?

1131
00:58:48,166 --> 00:58:50,541
I'm afraid they will
stay and be slaughtered.

1132
00:58:51,582 --> 00:58:53,916
You will attack at
dawn or during the night?

1133
00:58:55,832 --> 00:58:57,225
Which would you prefer?

1134
00:58:57,249 --> 00:58:59,874
Well I should think,
you are making fun of me.

1135
00:59:01,249 --> 00:59:04,183
My lady, I'm smiling
because my heart is singing.

1136
00:59:04,207 --> 00:59:06,933
And because I love your
faith in the French.

1137
00:59:06,957 --> 00:59:08,767
We will attack at dawn or dusk or noon

1138
00:59:08,791 --> 00:59:10,916
or midnight and we will win.

1139
00:59:10,957 --> 00:59:11,768
[Katherine] How well you talk.

1140
00:59:11,792 --> 00:59:14,600
Yes, I only hope I
can fight half as well.

1141
00:59:14,624 --> 00:59:16,142
But you may be killed.

1142
00:59:16,166 --> 00:59:18,308
[Francois] Not if I can help it.

1143
00:59:18,332 --> 00:59:21,374
And yet, what a glorious death.

1144
00:59:22,666 --> 00:59:24,207
To die for France.

1145
00:59:25,499 --> 00:59:28,100
Yes, it's better than
some I can think of.

1146
00:59:28,124 --> 00:59:30,707
But death in any form should
be avoided if possible.

1147
00:59:32,582 --> 00:59:34,707
Will you wear my
kerchief into the battle?

1148
00:59:37,457 --> 00:59:39,892
Aren't you afraid it may
take my mind off the fighting?

1149
00:59:39,916 --> 00:59:40,916
Milord.

1150
00:59:42,457 --> 00:59:43,808
Milord.

1151
00:59:43,832 --> 00:59:46,642
The generals are assembled
in the council chamber.

1152
00:59:46,666 --> 00:59:47,643
I will attend at once.

1153
00:59:47,667 --> 00:59:49,183
Very well Milord.

1154
00:59:49,207 --> 00:59:51,683
Generals, council chamber?

1155
00:59:51,707 --> 00:59:53,392
I have called a council of war.

1156
00:59:53,416 --> 00:59:54,558
A council of war?

1157
00:59:54,582 --> 00:59:56,183
Then we shall know know very
soon when you will attack.

1158
00:59:56,207 --> 00:59:57,143
Very soon.

1159
00:59:57,167 --> 00:59:58,183
Will you bring me word?

1160
00:59:58,207 --> 00:59:59,392
Of course.

1161
00:59:59,416 --> 01:00:01,267
But where shall I find you?

1162
01:00:01,291 --> 01:00:02,100
I will wait here.

1163
01:00:02,124 --> 01:00:03,124
Here?

1164
01:00:04,124 --> 01:00:05,475
It might take long.

1165
01:00:05,499 --> 01:00:07,100
I wouldn't mind.

1166
01:00:07,124 --> 01:00:08,249
You might catch cold.

1167
01:00:09,582 --> 01:00:10,600
Do you think so?

1168
01:00:10,624 --> 01:00:13,433
Haven't you some little
corner you can call your own?

1169
01:00:13,457 --> 01:00:15,600
Out of the draft.

1170
01:00:15,624 --> 01:00:18,308
Well, you might find me

1171
01:00:18,332 --> 01:00:20,475
behind the fourth door on the left

1172
01:00:20,499 --> 01:00:22,499
on the third floor of the new east wing.

1173
01:00:23,374 --> 01:00:24,725
If you can remember it.

1174
01:00:24,749 --> 01:00:27,558
It is engraved on my
brain in letters of fire.

1175
01:00:27,582 --> 01:00:30,166
(gentle music)

1176
01:00:54,416 --> 01:00:56,392
[Man] It's an insult Your
Majesty that I should be asked

1177
01:00:56,416 --> 01:00:57,892
to discuss this matter with such a man.

1178
01:00:57,916 --> 01:00:59,433
[Man] I quite agree with General Dudon.

1179
01:00:59,457 --> 01:01:00,933
The whole thing's a waste
of time, Your Majesty.

1180
01:01:00,957 --> 01:01:02,808
[Man] He knows nothing of the situation.

1181
01:01:02,832 --> 01:01:04,082
It's out of the question.

1182
01:01:09,249 --> 01:01:12,100
Your Majesty, my Lords.

1183
01:01:12,124 --> 01:01:13,850
We were just discussing your plans

1184
01:01:13,874 --> 01:01:15,207
to attack the Burgundians.

1185
01:01:16,874 --> 01:01:18,225
It's a very interesting opinion, General

1186
01:01:18,249 --> 01:01:19,725
but it leaves me in the dark.

1187
01:01:19,749 --> 01:01:21,350
I think the General meant to convey...

1188
01:01:21,374 --> 01:01:23,392
That it is ridiculous, absurd.

1189
01:01:23,416 --> 01:01:24,850
Even if I commanded my soldiers

1190
01:01:24,874 --> 01:01:26,475
to attack they wouldn't fight.

1191
01:01:26,499 --> 01:01:28,475
The foundation of strategy is to surround.

1192
01:01:28,499 --> 01:01:30,558
You can't find from the inside out.

1193
01:01:30,582 --> 01:01:31,393
Even Caesar...

1194
01:01:31,417 --> 01:01:34,350
May I suggest, then
let us surround them.

1195
01:01:34,374 --> 01:01:36,308
And how can we surround them?

1196
01:01:36,332 --> 01:01:38,308
How can an egg surround its shell?

1197
01:01:38,332 --> 01:01:39,683
That brings up an interesting...

1198
01:01:39,707 --> 01:01:40,518
It's preposterous.

1199
01:01:40,542 --> 01:01:42,600
But why can't we break
through their lines?

1200
01:01:42,624 --> 01:01:45,183
Because they won't leave
them for us to break through.

1201
01:01:45,207 --> 01:01:47,892
They'll retreat and pin us
against the walls of Paris.

1202
01:01:47,916 --> 01:01:48,851
It's quite apparent General

1203
01:01:48,875 --> 01:01:50,017
you have an answer to everything.

1204
01:01:50,041 --> 01:01:51,600
It's quite apparent you have

1205
01:01:51,624 --> 01:01:52,850
no knowledge of military maneuvers.

1206
01:01:52,874 --> 01:01:53,684
You're right, General.

1207
01:01:53,708 --> 01:01:55,600
I've only studied yours and
I've learnt nothing from them.

1208
01:01:55,624 --> 01:01:56,476
Sir!

1209
01:01:56,500 --> 01:01:57,725
My wonder is that you chose the sword

1210
01:01:57,749 --> 01:01:58,892
when care so little for fighting.

1211
01:01:58,916 --> 01:02:01,642
If you'd care for a
sample of my fighting!

1212
01:02:01,666 --> 01:02:04,058
Aren't you afraid general
that I might surround you?

1213
01:02:04,082 --> 01:02:05,957
Gentlemen, gentlemen.

1214
01:02:05,999 --> 01:02:08,541
This is not helping us
with the Burgundians.

1215
01:02:10,457 --> 01:02:12,017
My Lord Constable.

1216
01:02:12,041 --> 01:02:13,308
What are your orders?

1217
01:02:13,332 --> 01:02:15,308
That we attack within the week.

1218
01:02:15,332 --> 01:02:17,017
And what do you say to that, General?

1219
01:02:17,041 --> 01:02:19,767
Even if I commanded such a
thing my soldiers would rebel.

1220
01:02:19,791 --> 01:02:23,874
Because it is ridiculous,
asinine, imbecilic and insane.

1221
01:02:25,041 --> 01:02:27,850
There is your answer, my Lord Constable.

1222
01:02:27,874 --> 01:02:29,642
I order you to attack within the week.

1223
01:02:29,666 --> 01:02:31,124
And I refuse.

1224
01:02:32,041 --> 01:02:33,183
Your Majesty.

1225
01:02:33,207 --> 01:02:35,767
Have I your permission
to re-join my command?

1226
01:02:35,791 --> 01:02:37,517
What?

1227
01:02:37,541 --> 01:02:38,999
Yes, my General.

1228
01:02:49,541 --> 01:02:52,124
(gentle music)

1229
01:02:57,541 --> 01:02:59,142
Your supper, Milady.

1230
01:02:59,166 --> 01:03:01,308
Thank you, Anna.

1231
01:03:01,332 --> 01:03:02,892
You may go to bed.

1232
01:03:02,916 --> 01:03:04,933
Will there be anything else, Milady?

1233
01:03:04,957 --> 01:03:07,392
No thank you, Anna, goodnight.

1234
01:03:07,416 --> 01:03:08,683
Goodnight, Milady.

1235
01:03:08,707 --> 01:03:11,291
(gentle music)

1236
01:03:14,874 --> 01:03:16,392
In that way I'm sure we would succeed.

1237
01:03:16,416 --> 01:03:17,600
But my dear Count.

1238
01:03:17,624 --> 01:03:19,142
Without the support of General Dudon

1239
01:03:19,166 --> 01:03:21,142
who seemed quite adamant to your plan

1240
01:03:21,166 --> 01:03:23,933
it would be useless for us
to attempt what you suggest.

1241
01:03:23,957 --> 01:03:24,850
But, my dear General.

1242
01:03:24,874 --> 01:03:25,874
If I.

1243
01:03:27,041 --> 01:03:28,017
What are you talking about?

1244
01:03:28,041 --> 01:03:28,850
Your Majesty.

1245
01:03:28,874 --> 01:03:29,684
Your Majesty.

1246
01:03:29,708 --> 01:03:31,999
Have we your permission
to re-join our commands?

1247
01:03:33,332 --> 01:03:34,749
You may, Generals.

1248
01:03:49,707 --> 01:03:50,707
Oh Milord.

1249
01:03:57,582 --> 01:04:00,683
It's not quite as easy
as you thought, is it?

1250
01:04:00,707 --> 01:04:02,225
Your Majesty, if you will
give me a little time...

1251
01:04:02,249 --> 01:04:03,725
Ah yes.

1252
01:04:03,749 --> 01:04:06,975
But you haven't much time,
have you, my dear Count?

1253
01:04:06,999 --> 01:04:09,017
I don't quite understand, Your Majesty.

1254
01:04:09,041 --> 01:04:10,041
Didn't I tell you?

1255
01:04:11,374 --> 01:04:12,725
No I suppose I didn't.

1256
01:04:12,749 --> 01:04:14,892
Well now, let me see.

1257
01:04:14,916 --> 01:04:18,017
You freed eight prisoners
from the Fir Cone Tavern

1258
01:04:18,041 --> 01:04:20,683
and gave each of them a small present, eh?

1259
01:04:20,707 --> 01:04:21,601
Yes, Your Majesty.

1260
01:04:21,625 --> 01:04:24,475
What did you do about
the ninth prisoner?

1261
01:04:24,499 --> 01:04:26,517
But there were only eight.

1262
01:04:26,541 --> 01:04:28,100
Only eight?

1263
01:04:28,124 --> 01:04:30,225
Now, I could have sworn
that there were nine.

1264
01:04:30,249 --> 01:04:31,517
Tristan.

1265
01:04:31,541 --> 01:04:34,291
How many prisoners were taken
from the Fir Cone Tavern?

1266
01:04:36,582 --> 01:04:38,642
Nine, Your Majesty.

1267
01:04:38,666 --> 01:04:40,392
Nine, yes but that would include...

1268
01:04:40,416 --> 01:04:42,100
That's right, Villon.

1269
01:04:42,124 --> 01:04:44,475
Francois Villon.

1270
01:04:44,499 --> 01:04:47,124
That rogue is always raising
his ugly head, isn't he?

1271
01:04:48,124 --> 01:04:50,416
I still don't understand, Your Majesty.

1272
01:04:51,457 --> 01:04:52,475
Yet I believe I am speaking

1273
01:04:52,499 --> 01:04:54,308
perfectly plainly, my dear Count.

1274
01:04:54,332 --> 01:04:55,767
I'm asking you what sentence

1275
01:04:55,791 --> 01:04:57,850
you are passing on a
ruffian who resisted arrest

1276
01:04:57,874 --> 01:05:00,374
and murdered one of my
officers while doing so.

1277
01:05:01,332 --> 01:05:02,850
What would you suggest?

1278
01:05:02,874 --> 01:05:05,791
Boiling him in oil or
breaking him on the wheel?

1279
01:05:06,957 --> 01:05:09,291
Nothing so melodramatic, my dear Count.

1280
01:05:10,166 --> 01:05:11,433
As I have said before.

1281
01:05:11,457 --> 01:05:14,600
This Villon rendered us a slight service

1282
01:05:14,624 --> 01:05:16,725
which we are repaying

1283
01:05:16,749 --> 01:05:20,082
with a week of exalted splendor.

1284
01:05:20,124 --> 01:05:20,916
A week?

1285
01:05:20,957 --> 01:05:22,892
A week exactly.

1286
01:05:22,916 --> 01:05:24,642
And at the end of that week

1287
01:05:24,666 --> 01:05:25,850
I shall expect you to build me

1288
01:05:25,874 --> 01:05:28,916
an extra fine gibbet and
from it, hang master Villon.

1289
01:05:34,124 --> 01:05:35,124
Yes.

1290
01:05:37,082 --> 01:05:40,558
You know, for a few hours Your Majesty

1291
01:05:40,582 --> 01:05:42,850
had me almost disappointed in him.

1292
01:05:42,874 --> 01:05:45,892
I'm glad that your
faith in me was sustained

1293
01:05:45,916 --> 01:05:47,725
my dear Villon.

1294
01:05:47,749 --> 01:05:48,642
Goodnight.

1295
01:05:48,666 --> 01:05:49,666
Goodnight.

1296
01:05:50,332 --> 01:05:51,683
Oh yes.

1297
01:05:51,707 --> 01:05:53,100
Your Majesty.

1298
01:05:53,124 --> 01:05:54,308
Oh yes.

1299
01:05:54,332 --> 01:05:56,332
My Lord Grand Constable.

1300
01:06:09,374 --> 01:06:13,100
But Your Majesty, what if he escapes?

1301
01:06:13,124 --> 01:06:14,767
He won't escape.

1302
01:06:14,791 --> 01:06:17,475
I have taken care of that.

1303
01:06:17,499 --> 01:06:19,183
Did you see his face?

1304
01:06:19,207 --> 01:06:21,957
(Louis laughing)

1305
01:06:31,999 --> 01:06:34,749
(dramatic music)

1306
01:07:27,874 --> 01:07:28,874
Milord.

1307
01:07:30,124 --> 01:07:33,058
Were you intending to leave the palace?

1308
01:07:33,082 --> 01:07:36,142
I was thinking of taking
the air before retiring.

1309
01:07:36,166 --> 01:07:37,725
But His Majesty doesn't want anyone

1310
01:07:37,749 --> 01:07:39,350
to leave the palace at night.

1311
01:07:39,374 --> 01:07:41,291
Only with an armed escort.

1312
01:07:43,541 --> 01:07:44,434
Yes, yes, of course.

1313
01:07:44,458 --> 01:07:46,433
Now that's a wise precaution.

1314
01:07:46,457 --> 01:07:49,100
In that case, I'll take
the air in the battlement.

1315
01:07:49,124 --> 01:07:49,934
Goodnight.

1316
01:07:49,958 --> 01:07:51,308
Goodnight.

1317
01:07:51,332 --> 01:07:54,332
(suspenseful music)

1318
01:08:06,124 --> 01:08:07,308
Oliver, after him.

1319
01:08:07,332 --> 01:08:08,642
You too, Tristan.

1320
01:08:08,666 --> 01:08:10,225
Quick, quick.

1321
01:08:10,249 --> 01:08:13,249
(suspenseful music)

1322
01:08:50,374 --> 01:08:52,416
There you are.

1323
01:08:52,457 --> 01:08:54,475
I was afraid you had forgotten.

1324
01:08:54,499 --> 01:08:55,499
Shush.

1325
01:08:56,624 --> 01:08:57,601
How could I?

1326
01:08:57,625 --> 01:09:00,624
(suspenseful music)

1327
01:09:06,832 --> 01:09:08,767
What is it, Milord?

1328
01:09:08,791 --> 01:09:12,267
I was just making sure
the palace was well guarded.

1329
01:09:12,291 --> 01:09:13,350
It is.

1330
01:09:13,374 --> 01:09:15,600
Now you must forget your duties.

1331
01:09:15,624 --> 01:09:16,434
Come.

1332
01:09:16,458 --> 01:09:18,916
(gentle music)

1333
01:09:29,582 --> 01:09:30,582
Sit down.

1334
01:09:31,457 --> 01:09:32,457
Thank you.

1335
01:09:38,874 --> 01:09:40,142
I had some food brought.

1336
01:09:40,166 --> 01:09:41,999
I am not hungry, thank you.

1337
01:09:47,082 --> 01:09:48,892
You are not comfortable.

1338
01:09:48,916 --> 01:09:50,541
Let me put a cushion behind you.

1339
01:09:54,541 --> 01:09:56,433
Now, when do we attack?

1340
01:09:56,457 --> 01:09:58,183
Well, we don't.

1341
01:09:58,207 --> 01:09:59,183
We don't?

1342
01:09:59,207 --> 01:10:00,101
It seems you can't fight

1343
01:10:00,125 --> 01:10:01,517
from the inside out or the outside in.

1344
01:10:01,541 --> 01:10:04,225
Or anywhere in fact if
you're afraid of the enemy.

1345
01:10:04,249 --> 01:10:06,350
The generals were very firm about that.

1346
01:10:06,374 --> 01:10:08,267
The scurvy cowards.

1347
01:10:08,291 --> 01:10:10,267
Why didn't you terminate their commands?

1348
01:10:10,291 --> 01:10:11,308
Too many of them.

1349
01:10:11,332 --> 01:10:14,267
More than I could replace
to attack in a week.

1350
01:10:14,291 --> 01:10:15,600
Then attack in two weeks.

1351
01:10:15,624 --> 01:10:17,808
His Majesty only gave me one.

1352
01:10:17,832 --> 01:10:19,433
How can he expect you to do in a week

1353
01:10:19,457 --> 01:10:21,267
what the others haven't done in a year?

1354
01:10:21,291 --> 01:10:22,725
Because I said I could.

1355
01:10:22,749 --> 01:10:24,892
I said it was easy.

1356
01:10:24,916 --> 01:10:27,041
His Majesty is proving
to me that it isn't.

1357
01:10:30,124 --> 01:10:31,124
It's a pity.

1358
01:10:32,374 --> 01:10:33,892
Because I think now I'd be quite willing

1359
01:10:33,916 --> 01:10:36,350
to give my life to save the city

1360
01:10:36,374 --> 01:10:37,749
and to make you proud of me.

1361
01:10:38,624 --> 01:10:39,624
Oh, My Lord.

1362
01:10:42,374 --> 01:10:43,541
I am so sorry.

1363
01:10:44,707 --> 01:10:47,350
I had visions of the city free again.

1364
01:10:47,374 --> 01:10:49,558
Food coming through the gates.

1365
01:10:49,582 --> 01:10:52,207
And travelers from far off places.

1366
01:10:52,249 --> 01:10:54,082
Hunts in the forest at Fontainebleau.

1367
01:10:57,249 --> 01:10:59,957
And I wanted you to take me
on a picnic in the spring.

1368
01:11:01,541 --> 01:11:03,933
I might not have been able to anyway.

1369
01:11:03,957 --> 01:11:05,142
[Katherine] Why not?

1370
01:11:05,166 --> 01:11:07,142
Oh, the spring is some time off.

1371
01:11:07,166 --> 01:11:11,041
And time does strange things
to people, doesn't it?

1372
01:11:12,374 --> 01:11:13,374
I wonder.

1373
01:11:14,832 --> 01:11:16,850
I wonder in what misty isle the voice

1374
01:11:16,874 --> 01:11:18,624
of Sappho thrills the air.

1375
01:11:19,666 --> 01:11:21,892
In what green valley of the Nile

1376
01:11:21,916 --> 01:11:25,666
does Cleopatra still despair
for Anthony, the debonair?

1377
01:11:27,749 --> 01:11:30,142
The wind has blown them all away.

1378
01:11:30,166 --> 01:11:33,725
The good, the bad, the foul or the fair.

1379
01:11:33,749 --> 01:11:36,082
Where are the snows of yesterday?

1380
01:11:37,832 --> 01:11:38,832
Who wrote that?

1381
01:11:40,166 --> 01:11:43,142
Oh, a person of no importance.

1382
01:11:43,166 --> 01:11:45,100
Who is to be hanged.

1383
01:11:45,124 --> 01:11:47,707
[Katherine] What a pity.

1384
01:11:47,749 --> 01:11:49,850
You shouldn't feel too sorry for him.

1385
01:11:49,874 --> 01:11:52,433
Such wretches are born and live
in the shadow of the gibbet.

1386
01:11:52,457 --> 01:11:53,957
The starved and tortured.

1387
01:11:53,999 --> 01:11:56,392
The slightest wrong they commit
is punishable by hanging.

1388
01:11:56,416 --> 01:11:58,683
So when at last they do hang,

1389
01:11:58,707 --> 01:12:00,291
well they've always expected it.

1390
01:12:01,457 --> 01:12:04,100
Aren't we lucky we're
not in their shoes?

1391
01:12:04,124 --> 01:12:05,541
Yes, it is nice, isn't it.

1392
01:12:08,207 --> 01:12:09,874
The poor starving people.

1393
01:12:17,416 --> 01:12:19,207
They'd fight soon enough
if they didn't have

1394
01:12:19,249 --> 01:12:21,517
so much food to stuff themselves with.

1395
01:12:21,541 --> 01:12:22,642
Who?

1396
01:12:22,666 --> 01:12:24,392
[Katherine] The generals, the army.

1397
01:12:24,416 --> 01:12:25,832
Big, fat pigs.

1398
01:12:28,541 --> 01:12:29,808
That's it.

1399
01:12:29,832 --> 01:12:31,433
Of course, that's it.

1400
01:12:31,457 --> 01:12:32,267
What?

1401
01:12:32,291 --> 01:12:33,101
Of course they'd fight.

1402
01:12:33,125 --> 01:12:34,433
When their stomachs
flapping against their backs

1403
01:12:34,457 --> 01:12:35,683
they'll fight soon enough.

1404
01:12:35,707 --> 01:12:36,559
Why should they fight

1405
01:12:36,583 --> 01:12:38,267
with six month's food in the storehouses?

1406
01:12:38,291 --> 01:12:39,892
The bloated bourgeois.

1407
01:12:39,916 --> 01:12:42,267
But when that's taken away from them.

1408
01:12:42,291 --> 01:12:44,600
Oh, what a brain!

1409
01:12:44,624 --> 01:12:47,666
You gorgeous heaven-sent
dream of loveliness.

1410
01:12:48,624 --> 01:12:49,434
Just think.

1411
01:12:49,458 --> 01:12:51,350
Tomorrow will be a
happy day for the hungry

1412
01:12:51,374 --> 01:12:52,642
and a busy day for storehouses.

1413
01:12:52,666 --> 01:12:53,643
You mean you're gonna...

1414
01:12:53,667 --> 01:12:55,392
I mean I'm gonna open every storehouse

1415
01:12:55,416 --> 01:12:56,433
and give away all the food.

1416
01:12:56,457 --> 01:12:57,975
Wonderful.

1417
01:12:57,999 --> 01:12:59,392
And now I must leave you

1418
01:12:59,416 --> 01:13:01,499
before I ruin your reputation completely.

1419
01:13:02,832 --> 01:13:06,142
My reputation doesn't seem
to have bothered you up to now.

1420
01:13:06,166 --> 01:13:09,291
Since knowing you better
I respect you even more.

1421
01:13:10,332 --> 01:13:11,457
Dare I kiss your hand?

1422
01:13:12,791 --> 01:13:16,267
As you have already
kissed me on the lips,

1423
01:13:16,291 --> 01:13:18,267
I think you're becoming a little formal.

1424
01:13:18,291 --> 01:13:19,642
Did I really?

1425
01:13:19,666 --> 01:13:21,767
I thought I was dreaming.

1426
01:13:21,791 --> 01:13:24,374
(gentle music)

1427
01:13:33,957 --> 01:13:34,957
Katherine.

1428
01:13:37,332 --> 01:13:38,892
I.

1429
01:13:38,916 --> 01:13:43,433
Yes?

1430
01:13:43,457 --> 01:13:44,457
Goodnight.

1431
01:13:45,707 --> 01:13:46,707
Goodnight.

1432
01:13:53,582 --> 01:13:55,808
He, he never knew that
he was being followed?

1433
01:13:55,832 --> 01:13:58,225
He hadn't the slightest suspicion of it.

1434
01:13:58,249 --> 01:14:00,225
Did you order the gibbet?

1435
01:14:00,249 --> 01:14:01,892
Bright and early, Your Majesty.

1436
01:14:01,916 --> 01:14:04,850
Of the stoutest oak
and masterfully joined.

1437
01:14:04,874 --> 01:14:06,225
Be careful he doesn't hang you on it

1438
01:14:06,249 --> 01:14:07,642
before you get a chance to hang him.

1439
01:14:07,666 --> 01:14:09,933
Your Majesty, your Majesty!

1440
01:14:09,957 --> 01:14:10,808
What is it, what is it?

1441
01:14:10,832 --> 01:14:11,707
He's gone.

1442
01:14:11,749 --> 01:14:12,541
Who's gone?

1443
01:14:12,582 --> 01:14:13,725
The Grand Constable.

1444
01:14:13,749 --> 01:14:14,601
What?

1445
01:14:14,625 --> 01:14:15,892
Why didn't the palace guards stop him?

1446
01:14:15,916 --> 01:14:18,142
Your Majesty, he took
the guard with him.

1447
01:14:18,166 --> 01:14:19,850
He took the?

1448
01:14:19,874 --> 01:14:21,183
Tristan, my clothes.

1449
01:14:21,207 --> 01:14:26,207
(dramatic music)
(people chattering)

1450
01:14:38,707 --> 01:14:41,142
In the King's name.

1451
01:14:41,166 --> 01:14:43,642
Being duly apprised

1452
01:14:43,666 --> 01:14:47,267
of some shortage of food in
certain sections of our city,

1453
01:14:47,291 --> 01:14:50,933
I hereby command the
keepers of my storehouses

1454
01:14:50,957 --> 01:14:52,517
to relieve the condition

1455
01:14:52,541 --> 01:14:54,058
by the immediate distribution

1456
01:14:54,082 --> 01:14:56,100
of whatever stores are necessary

1457
01:14:56,124 --> 01:15:00,291
for the relief and comfort
of my beloved people.

1458
01:15:02,624 --> 01:15:07,558
Signed, signed King Louis the Eleventh,

1459
01:15:07,582 --> 01:15:09,058
defender of the faith.

1460
01:15:09,082 --> 01:15:12,082
(audience cheering)

1461
01:15:14,832 --> 01:15:16,082
Forward guards.

1462
01:15:22,374 --> 01:15:23,600
[Man] But Lord Constable...

1463
01:15:23,624 --> 01:15:25,350
[Francois] Silence.

1464
01:15:25,374 --> 01:15:27,433
This is an emergency, people are starving.

1465
01:15:27,457 --> 01:15:28,642
Do as I tell you or I'll hang you

1466
01:15:28,666 --> 01:15:31,767
by one of your own meat hooks
before you can say Louis XI.

1467
01:15:31,791 --> 01:15:34,791
(people chattering)

1468
01:15:37,124 --> 01:15:37,933
Food.

1469
01:15:37,957 --> 01:15:38,851
Food!

1470
01:15:38,875 --> 01:15:41,874
(people chattering)

1471
01:15:45,957 --> 01:15:47,100
Thank you Milord!

1472
01:15:47,124 --> 01:15:49,683
But Milord, I'll never
be able to get in there.

1473
01:15:49,707 --> 01:15:54,624
Well then, follow us, we're
opening all the storehouses.

1474
01:15:59,249 --> 01:16:01,832
Here is my breakfast at last.

1475
01:16:07,874 --> 01:16:08,684
Where are my eggs?

1476
01:16:08,708 --> 01:16:10,642
There aren't any eggs, Your Majesty.

1477
01:16:10,666 --> 01:16:11,683
What do you mean?

1478
01:16:11,707 --> 01:16:13,933
His Majesty has given them all away.

1479
01:16:13,957 --> 01:16:16,642
What do you mean, he's
given them all away?

1480
01:16:16,666 --> 01:16:18,017
To the people, Your Majesty.

1481
01:16:18,041 --> 01:16:19,207
That's what the steward said

1482
01:16:19,249 --> 01:16:21,017
when he came back from the storehouse.

1483
01:16:21,041 --> 01:16:23,892
We tried every one but it
was always the same thing.

1484
01:16:23,916 --> 01:16:26,600
His Majesty has given everything away.

1485
01:16:26,624 --> 01:16:28,207
But this is ridiculous.

1486
01:16:28,249 --> 01:16:29,457
Not His Majesty?

1487
01:16:30,416 --> 01:16:31,416
I can't believe it.

1488
01:16:32,291 --> 01:16:34,767
Katherine go immediately to His Majesty

1489
01:16:34,791 --> 01:16:36,142
and inform him of what has happened.

1490
01:16:36,166 --> 01:16:38,850
And tell him I must have
eggs for my breakfast.

1491
01:16:38,874 --> 01:16:40,975
And I don't care where he gets them.

1492
01:16:40,999 --> 01:16:42,725
Yes, Your Majesty.

1493
01:16:42,749 --> 01:16:44,058
Fish.

1494
01:16:44,082 --> 01:16:45,374
From the moat I suppose?

1495
01:16:46,999 --> 01:16:48,767
Actually Your Majesty,
there is no hope of victory.

1496
01:16:48,791 --> 01:16:51,142
You are very comforting, my friends.

1497
01:16:51,166 --> 01:16:52,624
Well, what is it, what is it?

1498
01:16:54,249 --> 01:16:55,683
The Lady Katherine

1499
01:16:55,707 --> 01:16:58,332
with an important
message from Her Majesty.

1500
01:17:07,749 --> 01:17:09,642
I am sorry to disturb Your Majesty.

1501
01:17:09,666 --> 01:17:11,767
But Her Majesty wishes me to inform you

1502
01:17:11,791 --> 01:17:14,166
that she would like some
eggs for her breakfast.

1503
01:17:15,874 --> 01:17:19,683
Well, wouldn't the kitchen
be a good place to try?

1504
01:17:19,707 --> 01:17:21,999
She did, Your Majesty
and there weren't any.

1505
01:17:22,874 --> 01:17:23,684
Really, Katherine.

1506
01:17:23,708 --> 01:17:25,892
I don't want to appear rude
or criticize your mistress

1507
01:17:25,916 --> 01:17:28,100
but I'm busy this morning.

1508
01:17:28,124 --> 01:17:30,642
I don't know anything about
eggs or where they keep them.

1509
01:17:30,666 --> 01:17:32,058
But I believe usually in storehouses.

1510
01:17:32,082 --> 01:17:35,392
Well, the steward reports
he went to all the storehouses

1511
01:17:35,416 --> 01:17:37,933
and there weren't any eggs.

1512
01:17:37,957 --> 01:17:40,642
That's ridiculous, I
have hundreds of eggs.

1513
01:17:40,666 --> 01:17:41,933
Now be a good girl and run along

1514
01:17:41,957 --> 01:17:43,558
and take your troubles to someone else.

1515
01:17:43,582 --> 01:17:45,749
I am supposed to be
the King, not the chef.

1516
01:17:46,624 --> 01:17:47,624
Yes, Your Majesty.

1517
01:17:57,916 --> 01:17:58,916
Eggs.

1518
01:18:01,457 --> 01:18:02,725
Eggs.

1519
01:18:02,749 --> 01:18:07,749
(people chattering)
(upbeat music)

1520
01:18:34,124 --> 01:18:36,207
What is that, what is it?

1521
01:18:40,249 --> 01:18:42,808
Tristan, what is all that
babble about out there?

1522
01:18:42,832 --> 01:18:44,933
I trust Your Majesty's sense of humor

1523
01:18:44,957 --> 01:18:46,058
is functioning well this morning.

1524
01:18:46,082 --> 01:18:48,183
What are you talking about?

1525
01:18:48,207 --> 01:18:50,767
Your Grand Constable
has opened the storehouses

1526
01:18:50,791 --> 01:18:53,725
and given away all the
food to the populace.

1527
01:18:53,749 --> 01:18:54,601
All?

1528
01:18:54,625 --> 01:18:56,291
To the last bean.

1529
01:18:57,707 --> 01:19:00,124
I trust Your Majesty is well amused.

1530
01:19:01,374 --> 01:19:03,267
How much food have
we here in the palace?

1531
01:19:03,291 --> 01:19:05,517
How much food have
we here in the palace?

1532
01:19:05,541 --> 01:19:09,475
There is sufficient for
perhaps five days, Your Majesty.

1533
01:19:09,499 --> 01:19:10,666
Five days?

1534
01:19:15,499 --> 01:19:17,642
Be careful, Milord, his Majesty knows.

1535
01:19:17,666 --> 01:19:19,058
Of course he knows.

1536
01:19:19,082 --> 01:19:20,683
That's what we intended.

1537
01:19:20,707 --> 01:19:23,207
Now give me for a few moments.

1538
01:19:24,499 --> 01:19:25,683
I tried to warn Your Majesty.

1539
01:19:25,707 --> 01:19:26,517
Five days.

1540
01:19:26,541 --> 01:19:27,541
Now you see?

1541
01:19:29,749 --> 01:19:30,749
Good morning.

1542
01:19:32,041 --> 01:19:33,433
Am I intruding?

1543
01:19:33,457 --> 01:19:35,600
If so I can easily pay my respects later.

1544
01:19:35,624 --> 01:19:36,434
Oh no.

1545
01:19:36,458 --> 01:19:38,600
I believe we were just discussing you.

1546
01:19:38,624 --> 01:19:41,183
Well, how nice.

1547
01:19:41,207 --> 01:19:42,517
Your Majesty will be delighted to hear

1548
01:19:42,541 --> 01:19:45,267
that your goodwill mission
is a complete success.

1549
01:19:45,291 --> 01:19:47,058
My goodwill mission?

1550
01:19:47,082 --> 01:19:49,350
I presume you refer to the
giving away of all my food.

1551
01:19:49,374 --> 01:19:50,184
Exactly.

1552
01:19:50,208 --> 01:19:51,600
It would have warmed Your Majesty's heart

1553
01:19:51,624 --> 01:19:53,933
if you had seen how
greatfuly it was received.

1554
01:19:53,957 --> 01:19:55,666
No doubt, no doubt.

1555
01:19:57,082 --> 01:19:59,433
Permit me to ask you one simple question.

1556
01:19:59,457 --> 01:20:01,517
What do you propose to do
when all Paris is starving?

1557
01:20:01,541 --> 01:20:03,975
But, Your Majesty,
France is full of food.

1558
01:20:03,999 --> 01:20:06,457
The country outside is
groaning with grain.

1559
01:20:06,499 --> 01:20:09,517
Mountains of flour, mildew in the mill.

1560
01:20:09,541 --> 01:20:13,183
The pigs beseech you to
accept their fattest hams.

1561
01:20:13,207 --> 01:20:15,642
All we have to do is to go and get them.

1562
01:20:15,666 --> 01:20:16,933
And to do so I suppose

1563
01:20:16,957 --> 01:20:18,975
you suggest we fly over
the Burgundian lines?

1564
01:20:18,999 --> 01:20:21,183
No, not at all, Your Majesty.

1565
01:20:21,207 --> 01:20:23,183
We can fight through them.

1566
01:20:23,207 --> 01:20:24,707
Don't you think so, Generals?

1567
01:20:26,832 --> 01:20:29,517
Your Majesty's ears must have burned.

1568
01:20:29,541 --> 01:20:30,933
Never have I heard such lovely things

1569
01:20:30,957 --> 01:20:32,558
said about a living monarch.

1570
01:20:32,582 --> 01:20:35,933
Everywhere it was, God
bless our gracious Louis.

1571
01:20:35,957 --> 01:20:37,933
And Long live the King.

1572
01:20:37,957 --> 01:20:40,433
Long live the King!

1573
01:20:40,457 --> 01:20:43,457
(audience cheering)

1574
01:20:51,791 --> 01:20:52,601
You know.

1575
01:20:52,625 --> 01:20:55,892
There is something about all
this I don't quite understand.

1576
01:20:55,916 --> 01:20:57,225
What's hard to understand?

1577
01:20:57,249 --> 01:20:59,725
The people have got no food
so the king gives it to them.

1578
01:20:59,749 --> 01:21:01,517
I say, long live the king.

1579
01:21:01,541 --> 01:21:02,725
Yeah.

1580
01:21:02,749 --> 01:21:04,457
Why does Louis worry about us?

1581
01:21:05,291 --> 01:21:06,749
He never did it before.

1582
01:21:07,957 --> 01:21:09,350
There is only one thing to it.

1583
01:21:09,374 --> 01:21:11,058
They're fattening us for the Kill.

1584
01:21:11,082 --> 01:21:12,642
They expect attacks from the Burgundians

1585
01:21:12,666 --> 01:21:14,433
and they're trying to buy our help.

1586
01:21:14,457 --> 01:21:15,600
Well, why shouldn't we help?

1587
01:21:15,624 --> 01:21:18,142
This is our city and Louis is our King.

1588
01:21:18,166 --> 01:21:19,225
What did he ever do for you?

1589
01:21:19,249 --> 01:21:21,392
Well, he sent us all his food.

1590
01:21:21,416 --> 01:21:23,207
That's it, you see, it is a trick.

1591
01:21:24,957 --> 01:21:27,767
Trying to buy your loyalty
through your stomachs.

1592
01:21:27,791 --> 01:21:30,100
Well, when the Burgundians
are fighting the Parisians

1593
01:21:30,124 --> 01:21:32,725
and the Parisians are
fighting the Burgundians.

1594
01:21:32,749 --> 01:21:34,350
I know what I'll be doing.

1595
01:21:34,374 --> 01:21:36,374
Yes, you'll be hiding in a cellar.

1596
01:21:44,749 --> 01:21:46,416
[Father] My child.

1597
01:21:47,332 --> 01:21:48,143
Good evening, Father.

1598
01:21:48,167 --> 01:21:51,058
Weren't you with François
Villon when he was arrested?

1599
01:21:51,082 --> 01:21:52,183
I was, Father.

1600
01:21:52,207 --> 01:21:53,975
I heard that you and the
others were being released.

1601
01:21:53,999 --> 01:21:55,207
But what about Francois?

1602
01:21:56,082 --> 01:21:57,808
He wasn't with us.

1603
01:21:57,832 --> 01:21:59,225
Then the worst has happened.

1604
01:21:59,249 --> 01:22:00,392
Oh no, Father.

1605
01:22:00,416 --> 01:22:03,124
The Grand Constable himself
told me he was alright.

1606
01:22:04,124 --> 01:22:05,850
I wish I could believe that.

1607
01:22:05,874 --> 01:22:07,517
But you can.

1608
01:22:07,541 --> 01:22:10,517
The new Grand Constable
is a very kindly man.

1609
01:22:10,541 --> 01:22:12,225
He must be.

1610
01:22:12,249 --> 01:22:15,933
Without him all these people
would still be without food.

1611
01:22:15,957 --> 01:22:17,100
Yes and look at them.

1612
01:22:17,124 --> 01:22:20,207
Gorging themselves today
and starving again tomorrow.

1613
01:22:27,832 --> 01:22:30,416
(gentle music)

1614
01:22:58,749 --> 01:22:59,749
Katherine.

1615
01:23:02,416 --> 01:23:03,683
Well, it's happened.

1616
01:23:03,707 --> 01:23:05,933
Tonight His Majesty had his last meal.

1617
01:23:05,957 --> 01:23:08,225
Now they will have to fight.

1618
01:23:08,249 --> 01:23:09,933
What do you mean?

1619
01:23:09,957 --> 01:23:13,142
Our glorious army has
determined not to fight.

1620
01:23:13,166 --> 01:23:16,433
Neither cold nor
starvation, insults or abuse

1621
01:23:16,457 --> 01:23:18,582
will swerve them from that noble impasse.

1622
01:23:19,541 --> 01:23:20,666
Then we have failed?

1623
01:23:21,916 --> 01:23:23,832
And my week ends tonight.

1624
01:23:26,082 --> 01:23:29,017
Is that why you've avoided me all week?

1625
01:23:29,041 --> 01:23:32,707
No, no I was busy.

1626
01:23:32,749 --> 01:23:33,957
At the walls, trying to.

1627
01:23:45,749 --> 01:23:46,749
Why?

1628
01:23:49,791 --> 01:23:51,225
Katherine.

1629
01:23:51,249 --> 01:23:52,850
Have you ever asked yourself

1630
01:23:52,874 --> 01:23:55,124
where the Count de Montcorbier came from?

1631
01:23:55,999 --> 01:23:56,809
No.

1632
01:23:56,833 --> 01:23:58,725
Did it ever occur to you that perhaps

1633
01:23:58,749 --> 01:24:00,499
he came from the court of miracles?

1634
01:24:01,749 --> 01:24:02,684
Milord.

1635
01:24:02,708 --> 01:24:05,183
For a minute you had me
thinking you were serious.

1636
01:24:05,207 --> 01:24:08,957
Katherine, I am Francois Villon.

1637
01:24:11,166 --> 01:24:12,392
Francois Villon?

1638
01:24:12,416 --> 01:24:13,416
The gutter poet.

1639
01:24:14,207 --> 01:24:18,058
Companion of the finest company
of cut-throats and rogues,

1640
01:24:18,082 --> 01:24:20,541
thieves and murderers
that France can boast of.

1641
01:24:24,874 --> 01:24:27,666
But why did you do this to me?

1642
01:24:28,749 --> 01:24:30,166
I never intended to.

1643
01:24:31,832 --> 01:24:34,124
It started as the jest of a king.

1644
01:24:35,332 --> 01:24:38,957
And then I loved you.

1645
01:24:40,082 --> 01:24:41,267
Love?

1646
01:24:41,291 --> 01:24:42,101
[François] With all the meaning

1647
01:24:42,125 --> 01:24:44,142
that the word can have in paradise.

1648
01:24:44,166 --> 01:24:45,166
Love?

1649
01:24:46,957 --> 01:24:49,791
I could not give you any
godlier thing if I were king.

1650
01:24:54,249 --> 01:24:55,249
Please go.

1651
01:24:57,124 --> 01:24:58,267
Please.

1652
01:24:58,291 --> 01:25:01,041
(dramatic music)

1653
01:25:12,707 --> 01:25:14,957
Our commands are completely
demoralized, Your Majesty.

1654
01:25:14,999 --> 01:25:16,892
Not a man will obey his officer.

1655
01:25:16,916 --> 01:25:18,183
They refuse to man the walls.

1656
01:25:18,207 --> 01:25:19,059
I'll have them hanged!

1657
01:25:19,083 --> 01:25:20,725
But who's to hang them, Your Majesty?

1658
01:25:20,749 --> 01:25:22,725
They will not man the
walls until they're fed.

1659
01:25:22,749 --> 01:25:24,558
In the mean time, the
west gate is unprotected.

1660
01:25:24,582 --> 01:25:26,142
But we have no food to give them.

1661
01:25:26,166 --> 01:25:28,100
Your Majesty might pacify them

1662
01:25:28,124 --> 01:25:30,267
with some sort of entertainment.

1663
01:25:30,291 --> 01:25:32,392
Such as perhaps immediately hanging

1664
01:25:32,416 --> 01:25:34,600
the noble Lord who gave away their food.

1665
01:25:34,624 --> 01:25:36,666
An excellent idea, Milord.

1666
01:25:39,499 --> 01:25:40,517
[Man] What is it, Father?

1667
01:25:40,541 --> 01:25:43,433
[Father] I must see His
Majesty, or the Grand Constable.

1668
01:25:43,457 --> 01:25:45,767
[Man] I'm sorry Father
but that's impossible.

1669
01:25:45,791 --> 01:25:46,768
[Father] I tell you I must.

1670
01:25:46,792 --> 01:25:48,267
I have urgent news.

1671
01:25:48,291 --> 01:25:49,291
Wait.

1672
01:25:57,957 --> 01:25:58,851
What is it, Father?

1673
01:25:58,875 --> 01:26:01,933
Milord, it is very urgent
that I see His Majesty.

1674
01:26:01,957 --> 01:26:02,957
Or the...

1675
01:26:04,416 --> 01:26:05,683
Francois?

1676
01:26:05,707 --> 01:26:06,707
Francois.

1677
01:26:09,207 --> 01:26:10,143
But Francois.

1678
01:26:10,167 --> 01:26:11,267
One moment, Father.

1679
01:26:11,291 --> 01:26:12,291
You may go.

1680
01:26:15,249 --> 01:26:16,642
Now what is it, Father?

1681
01:26:16,666 --> 01:26:17,892
Francois.

1682
01:26:17,916 --> 01:26:19,058
What does this mean?

1683
01:26:19,082 --> 01:26:20,600
You here, dressed like a.

1684
01:26:20,624 --> 01:26:21,850
I'll explain that later.

1685
01:26:21,874 --> 01:26:23,225
Now what is your urgent message?

1686
01:26:23,249 --> 01:26:25,975
I can tell that only to the
King or the Grand Constable.

1687
01:26:25,999 --> 01:26:27,767
I am the Grand Constable.

1688
01:26:27,791 --> 01:26:30,017
François, this is no time for jesting.

1689
01:26:30,041 --> 01:26:31,850
Montigny has assembled his cockleshells

1690
01:26:31,874 --> 01:26:33,058
at the court of miracles.

1691
01:26:33,082 --> 01:26:34,933
Hundreds, thousands of them.

1692
01:26:34,957 --> 01:26:37,308
They know the Burgundians
will attack soon.

1693
01:26:37,332 --> 01:26:40,392
And then they plan to
sack and loot the city.

1694
01:26:40,416 --> 01:26:43,308
But Francois, if you were
there you could stop them.

1695
01:26:43,332 --> 01:26:45,582
They'd listen to you, they always have.

1696
01:26:47,916 --> 01:26:50,916
(suspenseful music)

1697
01:26:52,416 --> 01:26:53,225
[Man] Milord.

1698
01:26:53,249 --> 01:26:54,058
What is it?

1699
01:26:54,082 --> 01:26:54,893
The Burgundians have attacked.

1700
01:26:54,917 --> 01:26:57,142
They've already broken
through the west gate.

1701
01:26:57,166 --> 01:26:58,291
Then it is too late.

1702
01:26:59,457 --> 01:27:01,100
Too late.

1703
01:27:01,124 --> 01:27:03,392
No, Father, it is not too late.

1704
01:27:03,416 --> 01:27:04,850
You say my friends listen to me.

1705
01:27:04,874 --> 01:27:06,541
Then perhaps they will follow me.

1706
01:27:12,332 --> 01:27:13,350
Francois.

1707
01:27:13,374 --> 01:27:16,850
Where is he, where is he, where is he?

1708
01:27:16,874 --> 01:27:20,058
So there you are, my Lord Grand Constable.

1709
01:27:20,082 --> 01:27:21,600
You've failed, haven't you.

1710
01:27:21,624 --> 01:27:23,392
And failed miserably.

1711
01:27:23,416 --> 01:27:24,416
Arrest him.

1712
01:27:25,582 --> 01:27:27,142
After him, after him!

1713
01:27:27,166 --> 01:27:29,916
(dramatic music)

1714
01:27:35,291 --> 01:27:36,226
He's got away, Your Majesty.

1715
01:27:36,250 --> 01:27:37,475
So he got away, did he?

1716
01:27:37,499 --> 01:27:39,225
Very well then, issue a command.

1717
01:27:39,249 --> 01:27:40,475
Anyone seeing that man to arrest him.

1718
01:27:40,499 --> 01:27:42,350
If he resists arrest, cut him down.

1719
01:27:42,374 --> 01:27:43,850
To your posts, Generals.

1720
01:27:43,874 --> 01:27:46,624
Do your best and God save France.

1721
01:27:47,666 --> 01:27:49,683
We have been fools long enough.

1722
01:27:49,707 --> 01:27:51,142
While they're doing the fighting,

1723
01:27:51,166 --> 01:27:53,183
we'll sack and loot the city.

1724
01:27:53,207 --> 01:27:54,892
We'll never get a chance like this again.

1725
01:27:54,916 --> 01:27:57,916
(audience cheering)

1726
01:27:59,416 --> 01:28:01,933
Hey, that's only part of it.

1727
01:28:01,957 --> 01:28:03,600
I want you to remember this.

1728
01:28:03,624 --> 01:28:06,933
If the Burgundians take
the city, we were helping.

1729
01:28:06,957 --> 01:28:08,058
On the other hand,

1730
01:28:08,082 --> 01:28:10,392
if the city should win
we were helping the city.

1731
01:28:10,416 --> 01:28:13,183
(audience laughing)

1732
01:28:13,207 --> 01:28:14,267
We were on our way to
the walls when we thought

1733
01:28:14,291 --> 01:28:16,933
we saw some Burgundians in a house.

1734
01:28:16,957 --> 01:28:18,017
We took after them

1735
01:28:18,041 --> 01:28:20,642
and during the fighting
the thieving Burgundians

1736
01:28:20,666 --> 01:28:21,850
took the silver.

1737
01:28:21,874 --> 01:28:25,933
That is all very fine but
I would like to know this.

1738
01:28:25,957 --> 01:28:26,791
Who's going to lead us?

1739
01:28:26,832 --> 01:28:28,183
Why I am of course.

1740
01:28:28,207 --> 01:28:29,225
You?

1741
01:28:29,249 --> 01:28:30,101
Well, I don't want any part of it!

1742
01:28:30,125 --> 01:28:32,683
Why for two whites I'd...

1743
01:28:32,707 --> 01:28:33,518
(Francois laughing)

1744
01:28:33,542 --> 01:28:35,767
Why, for two whites you
would murder your own mother.

1745
01:28:35,791 --> 01:28:38,791
(people chattering)

1746
01:28:41,166 --> 01:28:44,267
Your oratory is improving, my dear Rene.

1747
01:28:44,291 --> 01:28:45,642
Don't you think so, Huguette?

1748
01:28:45,666 --> 01:28:46,850
Villon.

1749
01:28:46,874 --> 01:28:47,683
Villon.

1750
01:28:47,707 --> 01:28:48,518
Francois.

1751
01:28:48,542 --> 01:28:51,558
(people chattering)

1752
01:28:51,582 --> 01:28:53,749
Yes, Francois Villon.

1753
01:28:54,749 --> 01:28:55,808
I've come to tell you a few things

1754
01:28:55,832 --> 01:28:58,517
my friend de Montigny
forgotten to tell you.

1755
01:28:58,541 --> 01:29:02,433
Now, we all know there is
no honor among thieves.

1756
01:29:02,457 --> 01:29:04,808
So I'm not going to
talk to you about honor.

1757
01:29:04,832 --> 01:29:08,600
And I'm not appealing
to any patch of decency

1758
01:29:08,624 --> 01:29:10,207
I know you never had.

1759
01:29:10,249 --> 01:29:13,725
Now, as you stand there
the city is falling.

1760
01:29:13,749 --> 01:29:16,183
Falling to thieves like ourselves.

1761
01:29:16,207 --> 01:29:19,517
Cut-throats who have come
all the way from Burgundy

1762
01:29:19,541 --> 01:29:21,433
to take what belongs to us.

1763
01:29:21,457 --> 01:29:25,767
Beggars to beg the bread
from our beggars' mouths.

1764
01:29:25,791 --> 01:29:30,791
Cutpurses to cut our purses,
and Macks to mash our women.

1765
01:29:31,957 --> 01:29:35,267
Are we going to let these
poachers move in our preserve?

1766
01:29:35,291 --> 01:29:38,308
These country louts show us how it's done.

1767
01:29:38,332 --> 01:29:41,058
Are they going to starve us to death?

1768
01:29:41,082 --> 01:29:42,082
[All] No!

1769
01:29:43,082 --> 01:29:44,808
Then I tell you this.

1770
01:29:44,832 --> 01:29:47,058
There is no city that can be conquered

1771
01:29:47,082 --> 01:29:48,475
unless it wants to be.

1772
01:29:48,499 --> 01:29:53,058
And whether they like it or
not, we are part of the city.

1773
01:29:53,082 --> 01:29:54,517
(audience cheering)

1774
01:29:54,541 --> 01:29:58,433
The part that knows how
to fight or don't we?

1775
01:29:58,457 --> 01:29:59,434
Why, of course we do.

1776
01:29:59,458 --> 01:30:01,433
Good, then let's fight.

1777
01:30:01,457 --> 01:30:02,892
I say, let us fight.

1778
01:30:02,916 --> 01:30:05,600
(audience cheering)

1779
01:30:05,624 --> 01:30:08,017
Come on, to the west gate!

1780
01:30:08,041 --> 01:30:13,041
(dramatic music)
(people yelling)

1781
01:31:18,041 --> 01:31:19,558
We're completely overwhelmed sir.

1782
01:31:19,582 --> 01:31:21,225
We should retire and defend the palace.

1783
01:31:21,249 --> 01:31:22,350
Yes, yes.

1784
01:31:22,374 --> 01:31:23,183
Get my horse.

1785
01:31:23,207 --> 01:31:24,018
Milord!

1786
01:31:24,042 --> 01:31:26,791
(dramatic music)

1787
01:31:29,457 --> 01:31:32,957
It's the Grand Constable
himself leading the people.

1788
01:31:34,082 --> 01:31:36,832
(dramatic music)

1789
01:32:12,166 --> 01:32:13,808
It's a rout, they're on the run.

1790
01:32:13,832 --> 01:32:15,225
Quick, our horses.

1791
01:32:15,249 --> 01:32:17,999
(dramatic music)

1792
01:32:27,624 --> 01:32:28,558
Ah, Tabarie.

1793
01:32:28,582 --> 01:32:29,393
We've got them on the run.

1794
01:32:29,417 --> 01:32:30,517
Come on, after them.

1795
01:32:30,541 --> 01:32:31,933
Come on.

1796
01:32:31,957 --> 01:32:34,707
(dramatic music)

1797
01:32:46,707 --> 01:32:47,707
Barbezier.

1798
01:32:47,749 --> 01:32:50,499
(dramatic music)

1799
01:32:51,416 --> 01:32:52,666
Quick Father.

1800
01:32:54,832 --> 01:32:55,683
Master Noel.

1801
01:32:55,707 --> 01:32:56,518
Yes, sir?

1802
01:32:56,542 --> 01:32:58,725
Take some men and arrest that traitor.

1803
01:32:58,749 --> 01:32:59,643
Traitor?

1804
01:32:59,667 --> 01:33:01,142
You heard His Majesty's orders.

1805
01:33:01,166 --> 01:33:02,392
Carry them out.

1806
01:33:02,416 --> 01:33:03,749
Come, gentlemen.

1807
01:33:18,332 --> 01:33:19,332
Francois.

1808
01:33:20,291 --> 01:33:22,041
[Francois] It's me.

1809
01:33:24,124 --> 01:33:25,541
Don't leave me.

1810
01:33:27,041 --> 01:33:28,683
[Francois] I won't.

1811
01:33:28,707 --> 01:33:31,291
(gentle music)

1812
01:33:59,874 --> 01:34:01,767
My orders are to arrest you, Milord.

1813
01:34:01,791 --> 01:34:02,892
Arrest?

1814
01:34:02,916 --> 01:34:03,726
Why, this man has...

1815
01:34:03,750 --> 01:34:05,666
I'm sorry Father, his Majesty's orders.

1816
01:34:13,332 --> 01:34:15,957
(bells ringing)

1817
01:34:19,749 --> 01:34:24,749
(upbeat music)
(audience cheering)

1818
01:34:31,874 --> 01:34:34,624
(dramatic music)

1819
01:34:44,916 --> 01:34:46,933
I have the honor to inform Your Majesty

1820
01:34:46,957 --> 01:34:49,558
that our arms have been
victorious on every side.

1821
01:34:49,582 --> 01:34:52,142
The Duke of Burgundy and his
armies are in full retreat.

1822
01:34:52,166 --> 01:34:54,183
Well, well, well.

1823
01:34:54,207 --> 01:34:56,183
You have done wonders, General.

1824
01:34:56,207 --> 01:34:58,475
Not entirely alone, Your Majesty.

1825
01:34:58,499 --> 01:34:59,892
I have received able support

1826
01:34:59,916 --> 01:35:03,183
from General Saliere
and General Barbezier.

1827
01:35:03,207 --> 01:35:04,267
Your Majesty's orders have been

1828
01:35:04,291 --> 01:35:05,808
carried out to the last word.

1829
01:35:05,832 --> 01:35:07,225
Even to the running down and arrest

1830
01:35:07,249 --> 01:35:08,850
of your traitorous Grand Constable.

1831
01:35:08,874 --> 01:35:11,267
Whose fate is now in Your Majesty's hands.

1832
01:35:11,291 --> 01:35:12,291
Excellent.

1833
01:35:13,332 --> 01:35:14,957
The Count de Montcorbier.

1834
01:35:14,999 --> 01:35:17,392
Having proved himself
a coward and a traitor

1835
01:35:17,416 --> 01:35:20,100
is hereby sentenced to be hanged this day.

1836
01:35:20,124 --> 01:35:23,517
Your Majesty.

1837
01:35:23,541 --> 01:35:26,475
Your Majesty, a great
injustice is being done.

1838
01:35:26,499 --> 01:35:28,225
Last night we were facing defeat

1839
01:35:28,249 --> 01:35:31,041
when the city was saved
by Francois Villon.

1840
01:35:31,957 --> 01:35:33,808
Yes, Francois Villon.

1841
01:35:33,832 --> 01:35:36,475
The man you know as the
Count de Montcorbier.

1842
01:35:36,499 --> 01:35:39,457
The one Your Majesty has
just sentenced to death.

1843
01:35:39,499 --> 01:35:40,499
But Your Majesty...

1844
01:35:42,957 --> 01:35:45,249
Very interesting, continue.

1845
01:35:49,457 --> 01:35:51,225
Your Majesty, if you will permit me.

1846
01:35:51,249 --> 01:35:53,267
This Reverend gentleman will
prove to you conclusively

1847
01:35:53,291 --> 01:35:54,933
that what Lady Katherine said is true.

1848
01:35:54,957 --> 01:35:56,183
Yes.

1849
01:35:56,207 --> 01:35:57,558
But surely, Your
Majesty will not listen?

1850
01:35:57,582 --> 01:35:59,832
I shall hear the Reverend gentleman.

1851
01:36:02,957 --> 01:36:04,100
Proceed, Father.

1852
01:36:04,124 --> 01:36:04,934
It is true, Your Majesty.

1853
01:36:04,958 --> 01:36:07,308
When I told Francois the rabble

1854
01:36:07,332 --> 01:36:09,332
were planning to sack and loot the city.

1855
01:36:10,207 --> 01:36:13,124
(metal clattering)

1856
01:36:28,207 --> 01:36:30,558
Good morning, Master Cut-throat.

1857
01:36:30,582 --> 01:36:31,975
Ah, don't tell me.

1858
01:36:31,999 --> 01:36:34,100
I am to have the honor
of your personal escort

1859
01:36:34,124 --> 01:36:36,017
to the gibbet, Your Majesty.

1860
01:36:36,041 --> 01:36:37,225
I have been given to understand

1861
01:36:37,249 --> 01:36:38,892
that you and some other footpads

1862
01:36:38,916 --> 01:36:40,517
had something to do with the defeating

1863
01:36:40,541 --> 01:36:41,933
of the Burgundians last night.

1864
01:36:41,957 --> 01:36:43,100
Is that true or is it not?

1865
01:36:43,124 --> 01:36:44,267
Answer me, yes or no?

1866
01:36:44,291 --> 01:36:46,475
Well, I suppose I did.

1867
01:36:46,499 --> 01:36:48,433
Well only this, my friend.

1868
01:36:48,457 --> 01:36:51,725
That once more you have made
everything very complicated.

1869
01:36:51,749 --> 01:36:53,850
You have a devilish talent for seating me

1870
01:36:53,874 --> 01:36:55,475
on the point of the sword of justice.

1871
01:36:55,499 --> 01:36:58,767
And it is becoming
uncomfortable in the extreme.

1872
01:36:58,791 --> 01:37:00,475
I'm sorry I have no cushion to offer

1873
01:37:00,499 --> 01:37:03,017
for Your Majesty's comfort.

1874
01:37:03,041 --> 01:37:03,851
Now, now, please.

1875
01:37:03,875 --> 01:37:06,017
Please spare me your witticisms.

1876
01:37:06,041 --> 01:37:08,808
It's difficult enough
trying to be King of France.

1877
01:37:08,832 --> 01:37:10,749
I have found that out, Your Majesty.

1878
01:37:12,541 --> 01:37:14,600
You know, you know, that's the first

1879
01:37:14,624 --> 01:37:16,892
nice thing you have ever said to me.

1880
01:37:16,916 --> 01:37:19,558
Yes, well now, François Villon.

1881
01:37:19,582 --> 01:37:21,350
In recognition of your heroic

1882
01:37:21,374 --> 01:37:23,517
but murderous services to the crown

1883
01:37:23,541 --> 01:37:25,058
I hereby commute your sentence

1884
01:37:25,082 --> 01:37:27,183
of death to life imprisonment.

1885
01:37:27,207 --> 01:37:28,017
Life?

1886
01:37:28,041 --> 01:37:29,041
Don't interrupt me.

1887
01:37:30,124 --> 01:37:31,267
You shall be imprisoned within

1888
01:37:31,291 --> 01:37:33,558
the confines of our beautiful France.

1889
01:37:33,582 --> 01:37:35,957
To wander or dally as you see fit.

1890
01:37:35,999 --> 01:37:37,725
The stars shall be your roof.

1891
01:37:37,749 --> 01:37:40,433
And your bed, the lush meadows of Normandy

1892
01:37:40,457 --> 01:37:42,725
or the warm sands of Brittany.

1893
01:37:42,749 --> 01:37:43,643
Yes.

1894
01:37:43,667 --> 01:37:44,933
Yes, that's almost poetry, isn't it.

1895
01:37:44,957 --> 01:37:46,517
Poetry.

1896
01:37:46,541 --> 01:37:48,933
The most beautiful I
ever heard, Your Majesty.

1897
01:37:48,957 --> 01:37:52,392
Yes but as you're an
inveterate mischief-maker.

1898
01:37:52,416 --> 01:37:54,933
A rabble-rouser and sower of dissension.

1899
01:37:54,957 --> 01:37:56,183
I forbid you to ever show yourself

1900
01:37:56,207 --> 01:37:58,308
again inside the walls of Paris.

1901
01:37:58,332 --> 01:38:02,225
You can have the rest of
France, but I must have peace.

1902
01:38:02,249 --> 01:38:04,767
I sympathize, Your Majesty.

1903
01:38:04,791 --> 01:38:05,850
You'll be turned over to the custody

1904
01:38:05,874 --> 01:38:06,933
of your foster father who will see to it

1905
01:38:06,957 --> 01:38:08,767
that you leave Paris before dawn tomorrow.

1906
01:38:08,791 --> 01:38:09,791
Now get out.

1907
01:38:10,749 --> 01:38:11,892
Your Majesty.

1908
01:38:11,916 --> 01:38:13,267
My Lord, oh get out, get out, get out.

1909
01:38:13,291 --> 01:38:14,101
Lady Katherine.

1910
01:38:14,125 --> 01:38:16,017
One more thing.

1911
01:38:16,041 --> 01:38:18,350
The Lady Katherine.

1912
01:38:18,374 --> 01:38:19,226
Katherine?

1913
01:38:19,250 --> 01:38:20,725
It may interest you to know that it was

1914
01:38:20,749 --> 01:38:23,642
through her intercessions
that your neck has been saved.

1915
01:38:23,666 --> 01:38:24,683
Before you leave the palace

1916
01:38:24,707 --> 01:38:26,832
the Lady Katherine would
like a word with you.

1917
01:38:32,624 --> 01:38:34,124
No, it's better this way.

1918
01:38:36,416 --> 01:38:38,207
Will you thank the Lady Katherine?

1919
01:38:39,249 --> 01:38:40,642
And tell her that someday I hope

1920
01:38:40,666 --> 01:38:43,999
to make the saving of my
neck worthy of her efforts.

1921
01:38:54,791 --> 01:38:57,933
He told me to tell you that
this was the end, Milady.

1922
01:38:57,957 --> 01:39:00,933
If something can have an end
that never had a beginning.

1923
01:39:00,957 --> 01:39:04,100
That he's going on hoping to
find a further understanding

1924
01:39:04,124 --> 01:39:06,166
of the things that have now come to him.

1925
01:39:07,416 --> 01:39:08,767
Father, when did he leave?

1926
01:39:08,791 --> 01:39:10,225
About an hour ago, my child.

1927
01:39:10,249 --> 01:39:11,683
What road did he take?

1928
01:39:11,707 --> 01:39:13,725
I promised not to tell.

1929
01:39:13,749 --> 01:39:14,749
Was it the east?

1930
01:39:15,707 --> 01:39:16,517
No.

1931
01:39:16,541 --> 01:39:17,351
The south?

1932
01:39:17,375 --> 01:39:19,142
I promised not to tell.

1933
01:39:19,166 --> 01:39:21,475
Thank you, Father, thank you.

1934
01:39:21,499 --> 01:39:24,082
(gentle music)

1935
01:39:47,416 --> 01:39:49,957
Milady, there is a man
walking on the road ahead.

1936
01:39:51,916 --> 01:39:53,350
Is he the one, Milady?

1937
01:39:53,374 --> 01:39:54,517
Yes.

1938
01:39:54,541 --> 01:39:56,183
Shall we overtake him?

1939
01:39:56,207 --> 01:39:59,808
No, no, we mustn't overtake
him until he is very tired.

1940
01:39:59,832 --> 01:40:02,183
He is a very obstinate man.

1941
01:40:02,207 --> 01:40:04,957
(dramatic music)
