Your beautiful.

Because you loved me.

You didn't lie to me, did you?

No, I didn't.

What about?

There must have been other girls before me, I mean.

Help me.

It's just...

Well, do all men have marriage beds?

Joe?

Come on, it's time you'll be late.

You didn't tell me you were going out?

I forgot.

My father asked me last night where I go.

What does he think you are?

The girlfriend.

I'll be gone in a minute.

When are we supposed to be going tonight?

A wash of whatever it is they teach.

I don't know.

Figures, numbers, that sort of thing.

We're trying to get a job in a bank.

We're going to improve ourselves, remember?

I think you're a bastard.

Well, I can hardly tell her the truth, can I?

I think you're a bastard.

Well, I can hardly tell her the truth, can I?

I thought she was madly in love with you.

Exactly. Why spoil it?

Anyways, you'll bet.

You all right?

Yes.

I shall be low.

Oh, look, she's a nice girl.

And respectable.

For what?

Tomorrow.

My father, if he knew it.

You will come to the house, won't you?

I told you.

This is my room as well, you know.

I'll move out.

Joseph?

Yes?

Is it true what you are?

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

Yes?

Is it true what your hand says?

What does he say?

The book finders only work in the morning.

Oh, didn't you know?

That's why Johann and I became book binders.

All that time off.

Shall I come down with you?

No.

Somebody might see us.

I'll come tomorrow, Rebecca.

I'll be here.

Darling, uh...

Goodbye, Joseph.

Oh, goodbye.

Book binders.

Ah, yes, I forgot to tell you, didn't I?

Anyway, thank you.

Stop, John, thank me.

Then why don't you tell her the truth?

She doesn't want to hear it.

She's going to find out what we do sooner or later.

By which time no doubt we should have grown tired of each other.

Come on, baby.

Come on, baby.

Come on, baby.

Oh my god!

Oh my god!

Master me.

Oh!

A musician.

What a

good idea!

You came to our house!

You lied to us!

Would you have let me come if I told you the truth?

But Anna, to deceive Anna!

I would have told you one day.

What I did was unforgivable.

I can't but thank you and Mrs. Strime for all the kindness you showed me.

At the very least I can do is let you carriage.

Your hand, please, there's no need to be hasted.

I thought I'd find this very difficult.

You're a disappointment to us. I won't deny that.

Yet we always like you.

There is Anna, to think of her mother and I, want only her happiness.

Surely after what is happening...

I have a certain influence.

What might expect to obtain your modest position in a counting house, perhaps?

A new start?

Please don't think that I'm ungrateful.

It's just that after the way I've behaved I...

Are you sure this is what Anna would want?

She is in love with you.

And I love her.

Right, of course you know I do.

It's just that...

Anna, why don't you say something?

It's what Anna wants.

But I like being a musician. I don't want to be anything else.

There are times when one has to do things one doesn't want to do.

I'm not putting this very well.

Indeed you will appreciate it.

There are certain things a father hopes never to have to say.

I never believe it will happen to one's self.

Shame, humiliation.

Anna.

I'm going to have a child.

So you see, one must do what is for the best.

Anna.

You understand?

A family brings responsibility.

One wouldn't want one's daughter to marry someone who wasn't...

Who didn't have certain prospects.

Marry? Of course.

Yes, you have my word.

If that's what Anna wants, I shall give up music.

Thank you.

I wanted go hand to look at these before the morning.

I bought a well at the arrangements.

Is he in bed?

If he is, it's not here.

Well, I left them eyes earlier tonight.

To do this. They've obviously finished late.

Three o'clock.

Well, sometimes...

You're a poor lie.

You should sit down in her.

It's easier to stand.

There's no wine, I'm afraid.

The room looks nice. You've done it very well.

If there was any money to spend on it,

you hadn't given us the bed.

Johann is a good player. He's the best I have.

It's what he enjoys.

Oh.

Perhaps your father will...

Perhaps when the babe is born.

No.

We used to go around.

Playing together.

You were certainly out of tune.

Literally scraping a living.

He was 14 then.

I sometimes think he still is.

And the grown-ups must make allowances.

Oh, I envy him.

Many things.

Oh, um...

I'll leave these here.

And go.

Anna, you should rest.

I'll wait for him.

Hold on.

I'll be back.

Now, what are you doing out there, Sophie?

Hey?

Move.

Go on.

Go on.

Oh.

Hey, late. What are you doing here?

Resting.

But you should go home.

I come here so that I don't have to go home.

I take it the whorehouse through you out.

Helps.

Don't you feel anything?

Fear.

Anything at all.

Of course I feel. All the bloody time.

When I'm with her, I feel...

When I'm not, I feel guilty.

You expect the whole world to revolve around your satisfaction, don't you?

You should work.

I do. I work for you.

You play.

Now, you have a talent that may or may not be worth something.

No, get out.

I want to sleep.

We're so bloody virtuous, aren't we?

Go home to your wife.

And so famous, everybody loves Joseph Leather.

Because I work!

Here, every evening.

Writing, arranging, inventing.

So that tomorrow there may be something new.

I'm not going to go home.

Anything at all.

Your mom and I are fancy.

I'm fancy.

So that tomorrow there may be something new.

Something will keep both of us going.

Then if all can work.

I have to be happy.

I said any fool can work.

They're too good for this earth.

I'm going to go.

Blow out the candle before you go.

Joseph.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

You're awake.

How do you feel?

Shani.

Yes, Mother?

Keep the other children quiet.

You woke up for a minute.

I'm going to go.

Is this sleep?

I've nearly finished.

Why don't you come tonight?

You could.

To tell my life.

Why not?

You never do.

I couldn't.

Tonight you could come tonight.

You're sick.

Oh, it's not better.

I just wouldn't feel right.

Not in...

I'd feel it wrong.

Why shouldn't you enjoy yourself?

Don't you think I do?

I have you and the baby.

If only I could make you understand.

See there, it's just a piece of paper.

And there's suddenly this, this people, the orchestra.

I said I'd visit him.

I forgot.

Don't you want me to?

I suppose so.

Joe.

Well, he just uses us.

My music's as good as his.

Better.

He pays well.

We're happy, isn't that enough?

It's the publishers.

You know that.

All I know is that everything I write has Joseph Lanner's name on it, not mine.

He's our friend.

Yes.

Oh, I won't go if you drive right in.

No, go.

I don't mind.

It's just a...

With him not there tonight.

He's ill.

That's what you want.

No, it's not the same.

You're late.

For what?

I want to go through them before we open.

You're nearly as bad as Lanner.

How is he?

Lanner's gone to see him.

What's this?

Music.

Since when did you take to writing?

Since a long time.

I should take more care.

Oh, it'll be all right.

It's just rest, that's all.

Mary, find someone to look after you.

Yes.

Your Honor's lucky.

That's what I tell you.

You need his telling?

He's settling down.

Well, we all have to set up the things as they are.

I don't wait.

Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen,

it is with regret that I must announce the

indisposition of Mr. Joseph Lanner.

I have the privilege of replacing him this evening.

Give him a chance.

Tonight, for the very first time in Vienna,

we are to present an evening of music by Mr. Johann Strauss.

Johann Strauss, to be played by the Johann Strauss Orchestra.

Thank you.

It's not really very fun to play this.

Can't say I blame you.

Not all that appealing, especially at 4am in the morning.

Did it actually seem quite pleased when I told him I was expecting again?

Well, it sounds very secure.

Safe.

Dow?

No, not at all.

I'll go.

Mr. Lanner, forgive me when you must come.

You must come across.

Thank you.

You're here.

You're ill.

Go home.

You're fittin' up, please, Hammon.

Tonight, we are playing my music.

My orchestra.

And my orchestra.

What am I supposed to mean?

Don't I mention, stressful ladies?

I know that.

Passcodes!

Is that right?

Go.

Look out!

Look out!

Stop it!

No!

No! I told you no!

We have a country!

No contract!

You're her!

After eight years, if it's a question of money.

There isn't enough money in Vienna.

We are rich! We've made each other rich!

The whole world has heard of your hand-strokes.

Only heard of. That's the difference.

Now they're going to see.

Johannes!

Johannes! Your family?

What is there we cannot offer you?

Can you offer me the spurlana, please, at the spurl?

Nana, he has the prestige, perhaps, but it is your music that they all want.

You are the one. You all have been.

Ever since that night.

Ever since I kept you on, gave you your chance.

Johannes.

I'm a business man. I try to understand.

But it makes no sense.

Look again at these. Munich, Paris, Frankfurt, London, Edinburgh, perhaps even America.

It's a fortune. It's what I want.

But what shall I do?

You'll find someone else.

Someone to take your place to most people. It never happens.

To others once in a lifetime. Only once.

I'm a business man.

At the time of this disaster nobody will go for that war.

That could be our problem.

That would never happen.

If not, R

Thank you.

Hey, Blaine.

Joseph, go back to your room.

Mommy.

Look after the girls.

There's nothing more to say.

No.

Without him, we should.

Do you still blame me?

No.

So many years ago, it wasn't me you told Lana that night.

Do you care?

No.

Whoever you believe it was, you should be grateful.

It made you famous.

The curiosity.

It's what you wanted.

The crowds come.

Don't marry his right, isn't that enough?

No.

Why?

In God's name, why?

They come.

Because once upon a time, Lana hit me and I hit him back.

Now we have rival orchestras.

He hates me and I hate him.

That's why they come.

Scandal, not music.

They dance.

They buy it.

They buy the court fanfare if I put my name to it.

I worth more.

My music is worth more.

The children?

Me?

I told you.

I'll send you money.

I'm expecting again.

I have to go.

There's no other way.

Not for me.

You don't have to go for me.

Doctor.

The women.

I understand.

I don't mind anymore.

I do.

Vienna is nothing.

Everywhere they want me, my orchestra, my music,

must be right.

Always the music.

That's what I am.

Your music got bigger.

1977 min films

I unbearable,

I know what you will feel.

No matter what the parties are,

I cannot ever get it wrong.

Well, dearest Anna and children, there is little to write about the concerts that we gave

in Budapest, but here in Berlin it's a different story.

Yesterday we paid for King Frederick William himself.

Who's King Frederick Crillium?

Shh!

And it was a huge success.

Good.

Next we move to Dresden.

Proud.

Oh!

Shh!

I'm sorry I can send no money, but despite success the expenses of touring the orchestra

are fantastic.

Yesterday we actually ate swan's flesh at a banquet given in our honor.

The whole orchestra insists on staying in the very best hotel here in Paris, as they

did in Brussels, Amsterdam, Hamburg and everywhere else.

The acclaim is great, but the profit I'm afraid is very small.

There is discontent in the orchestra.

Some of them have threatened to leave me if I do not pay more.

Where should I find it?

Just to note that the coronation here in England was splendid, I've never been so well received,

but the queen who complimented me and dined at Richmond with deuce and princes.

Tomorrow we travel to Birmingham and thence to Dabley.

I'm so proud.

Mrs. Strauss, your husband.

Is he dead?

He collapsed in England.

All the cross-journable brought him where all it's left.

It's a fever.

Been delirious.

We must get him to bed.

We're in there.

Where am I?

Home.

They brought you home.

Home.

Home.

Home.

Home.

Home.

It's time.

Home.

Home.

Stop it.

Stop playing that damn thing.

We'll none of you understand.

We were too noisy, yes.

Go to your rules, too.

Will you play for us one day?

Perhaps one day, yes.

My teacher at school says he remembers you playing at the Myers.

Go along with you.

Charlie, don't forget the time.

I'm 34 and he remembers.

If you could practice.

I've been ill.

It's six months.

Six months, six years.

What is it, Matt?

Are they all left me?

All of them.

You drove them too hard.

You drove yourself to her.

And now they're playing in ballrooms and theaters.

How's the way too long forgotten?

If you wanted to.

If you had the will.

Go begging, cap and hand.

Grovel to some fifth rate musician for a standardies orchestra.

Come back to you if you ask them.

I ask nothing of them.

There must be something.

There is no money.

You had all that was to have.

You were challenged.

While you were away, we managed.

Not for myself.

They say that Lana has 200 musicians.

Music director at the court, he must be rich.

I should never ask his help if that's what you're afraid of.

It's time for my walk.

You, hun.

What must walk?

Blues away the cobwebs.

That's one of his tunes they're playing.

They should pay him for it.

I'm going now.

Careful.

Where's Chate?

What do you want?

Who are you?

Nobody.

I'm going to go.

Master.

You give lessons.

No, no, no.

I'm with Mr. Lana at the show.

Like all the rest.

I stayed with you as long as I could.

Now you give lessons to my son?

He's clever.

So that one day he may be destroyed so that one day you can bleed him dry in the precious

name of music.

Father!

Give me that.

Now you're like them.

Just because you won't play, just because nobody wants you.

Father!

Father!

It's very sick.

It's very sick.

It must be different for him.

I'm going to go.

Shall I leave you?

Do as you please.

I often ask the publishers if they have anything new from you.

But there never is anything.

I've been ill.

What if it happens?

One works too hard.

Travels too far.

Believes one can go on forever.

I was healed myself once.

A long time ago.

I have learned that one needs to rest.

I have no orchestra.

No interest in it.

I play your music when it comes to dancing.

The people still want to dance.

But there are problems.

If I was a clever young man, he's going to look after the court for me when I'm away.

I had hoped that the Emperor might...

Unfortunately, he's yet to forgive you for writing music for Victoria's coronation.

It's stupid.

But politics aren't you?

I ask no favours of you.

No, no, no, no.

It is I who ask of you.

There are balls every night.

This one can't.

You will have your own programme.

Your own musicians.

You do it how you will.

Far back is busy.

You're away.

You're away.

And I'm the best you can do.

If you don't want to work, you will find an excuse for everything.

Anna!

Joseph is leaving.

I'm trying to help.

Anna?

You just happened to meet him.

No!

I went to see him.

I asked him to help.

If I humiliate you, I'm sorry.

I would rather not have done so.

I should have saved you something, Father.

Since you came back, we have tried.

But the other day, when you heard, Shani, the time came to stop pretending.

You were no longer part of us.

No doubt we'd grow away from you as well.

I grew used to you not being here.

The children became our life. They had to.

We are proud of you.

We want you back.

We want you to become part of us again.

You're a great man.

You're a great man.

You're a great man.

You're a great man.

You're a great man.
