MADAME WALEWSKA'S ROMANCE

2
00:01:09,386 --> 00:01:11,855
This film narrates a historical love.

3
00:01:12,055 --> 00:01:14,490
Details presented by the author

4
00:01:14,658 --> 00:01:18,322
preserve the spirit
of this immortal romance.

5
00:01:21,398 --> 00:01:26,268
JANUARY 1807
EAST POLAND

6
00:01:34,645 --> 00:01:37,239
Open in the name
of the Tsar of Russia!

7
00:01:37,314 --> 00:01:41,512
We are in Poland.
We don't take orders from the Tsar!

8
00:02:17,020 --> 00:02:19,114
- Water for the horses!
- But, Your Excellency...

9
00:02:19,690 --> 00:02:21,784
You go, quickly!

10
00:02:45,215 --> 00:02:47,309
That's what I call
comfort, Vladimir!

11
00:02:58,228 --> 00:02:59,093
Who are you?

12
00:02:59,363 --> 00:03:02,822
I'm Count Walewski.
It's an honor to have you in my home.

13
00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:06,035
- A Polish nobleman!
- With the grace of God.

14
00:03:06,870 --> 00:03:09,567
I will ask the servants to
bring them firewood, gentlemen.

15
00:03:09,673 --> 00:03:11,937
Wood smells better
what ancient tapestries.

16
00:03:12,008 --> 00:03:16,946
I recognized him immediately,
excellence. By the frame.

17
00:03:19,950 --> 00:03:20,940
Anastas...

18
00:03:31,228 --> 00:03:34,198
Well, what a surprise
Is that it, Wladi?

19
00:03:36,967 --> 00:03:38,264
Go back to your room now.

20
00:03:38,368 --> 00:03:44,239
How can you send such a woman
charming for your room alone?

21
00:03:52,783 --> 00:03:55,582
Why weren't you here
to welcome us?

22
00:03:57,087 --> 00:03:59,112
I hope my husband has them
received well in my absence.

23
00:03:59,222 --> 00:04:03,181
Husband! Did you hear that, Wladi?
That's her husband!

24
00:04:06,096 --> 00:04:08,758
Don't worry.
We'll figure it out!

25
00:04:09,266 --> 00:04:10,358
The French!

26
00:04:12,402 --> 00:04:14,393
All to your horses!

27
00:04:21,978 --> 00:04:24,174
I will return, my Polish countess!

28
00:04:27,117 --> 00:04:30,610
- Oh, Anastas.
- It's okay, Marie.

29
00:04:33,590 --> 00:04:37,356
You shouldn't have come down, Marie,
but I'm proud of you.

30
00:04:37,427 --> 00:04:40,522
Nothing happened.
It was a nightmare.

31
00:04:40,630 --> 00:04:43,258
A nightmare we share
with the furniture.

32
00:04:50,974 --> 00:04:54,467
The Polish spearmen.
God be praised!

33
00:05:06,022 --> 00:05:10,550
- Mr. Paul!
- Stephan.

34
00:05:10,660 --> 00:05:11,821
Paul!

35
00:05:17,133 --> 00:05:20,000
Let me see her!
How you have grown!

36
00:05:20,370 --> 00:05:22,896
A real lady!
It's stunning!

37
00:05:23,206 --> 00:05:25,675
Oh, Paul, Paul, Paul.

38
00:05:25,809 --> 00:05:28,403
It's Mr. Paul, Count.
He came back.

39
00:05:28,512 --> 00:05:31,379
Anastas, this is my brother Paul.
My husband.

40
00:05:31,848 --> 00:05:34,476
- I'm very happy to meet you.
- Thank you, sir.

41
00:05:36,219 --> 00:05:37,983
Welcome to our home.

42
00:05:39,222 --> 00:05:40,189
The Cossacks?

43
00:05:40,390 --> 00:05:44,520
Don't let it spoil
your return home.

44
00:05:44,594 --> 00:05:45,459
Thank you, sir.

45
00:05:45,595 --> 00:05:49,896
Our visitors have rearranged
the Russian-style living room!

46
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:51,126
But it won't be for long.

47
00:05:51,201 --> 00:05:54,171
Anastas, where are you?

48
00:05:54,671 --> 00:05:56,161
Pelagia.

49
00:05:56,773 --> 00:05:59,970
May I introduce you to Marie's brother,
Lieutenant Paul Lachinski,

50
00:06:00,076 --> 00:06:02,204
of Polish lancers
with the French army.

51
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,441
I know His Majesty.

52
00:06:04,548 --> 00:06:06,642
My sister, Pélagia Walewska.

53
00:06:06,716 --> 00:06:09,515
Don't remember anything
of the last 40 years.

54
00:06:09,586 --> 00:06:11,577
For her, Poland
It's still glorious.

55
00:06:12,422 --> 00:06:14,516
Poland will return
to be glorious, madam.

56
00:06:14,858 --> 00:06:17,122
Stephan, light the fire
in the hall for Mr. Paul.

57
00:06:17,193 --> 00:06:19,184
No need, Stephan.
I can't stay, Marie.

58
00:06:19,262 --> 00:06:20,627
I need to drive my
detachment to Yarnov.

59
00:06:20,730 --> 00:06:22,596
Can't stay
for a day?

60
00:06:22,699 --> 00:06:24,963
I am really sorry. I was lucky to be able
come here just for a moment.

61
00:06:25,035 --> 00:06:26,901
Lucky for us, my dear Paul.

62
00:06:26,970 --> 00:06:29,667
I bring great news:
the Emperor is in Poland!

63
00:06:31,274 --> 00:06:35,370
Is Napoleon here?
Then we are free!

64
00:06:35,645 --> 00:06:36,908
I hope so.

65
00:06:37,981 --> 00:06:42,509
So there was a party?
Why don't they ever tell me anything?

66
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,015
That's enough for today!

67
00:06:48,825 --> 00:06:50,315
Majesty...

68
00:06:53,463 --> 00:06:56,558
If you'll excuse me,
That's enough for me for today.

69
00:06:56,833 --> 00:07:00,360
As your stay will be brief, Paul,
dedicate your time to Marie.

70
00:07:00,503 --> 00:07:03,473
- Are you sure you're okay?
- I'm fine, my dear, thank you.

71
00:07:04,174 --> 00:07:06,541
- Goodnight my dear.
- Goodnight.

72
00:07:06,676 --> 00:07:09,873
May the great conqueror,
who you trust so much,

73
00:07:10,347 --> 00:07:13,373
be so good to Poland
how much you are with me.

74
00:07:13,683 --> 00:07:15,811
And how are you with me, Anastas.

75
00:07:17,854 --> 00:07:20,721
God accompany you. I hope we
Let's meet again soon.

76
00:07:20,824 --> 00:07:22,189
I hope we meet
again soon.

77
00:07:27,998 --> 00:07:31,127
It's exactly as I imagined.
Nothing changed.

78
00:07:31,201 --> 00:07:33,795
Neither do you.
But he changed his hairstyle.

79
00:07:33,937 --> 00:07:37,373
It was to be expected. The last time
who saw me, I was wearing braids.

80
00:07:37,674 --> 00:07:39,369
They were great for pulling.

81
00:07:39,709 --> 00:07:42,508
Now that I'm a countess
You wouldn't do that anymore.

82
00:07:42,612 --> 00:07:43,909
And why not?

83
00:07:59,829 --> 00:08:02,764
Today we have duck, Mr. Paul.
Still like it?

84
00:08:02,832 --> 00:08:05,199
If I like it! I run after the smell
with eyes closed.

85
00:08:07,637 --> 00:08:09,628
I'm glad you brought
Stephan with you.

86
00:08:09,706 --> 00:08:11,538
It's good to have someone there.

87
00:08:11,975 --> 00:08:15,775
- Home... oh, Paul...
- This one is majestic!

88
00:08:15,845 --> 00:08:19,679
Countess, still writes "Ns"
on the icy glass of the windows?

89
00:08:20,684 --> 00:08:22,345
Mine came out
always the opposite.

90
00:08:22,419 --> 00:08:25,753
And we were going to run away to enlist
to Napoleon's army.

91
00:08:26,156 --> 00:08:28,090
Men are the lucky ones.

92
00:08:28,858 --> 00:08:33,125
- You know him, don't you, Paul?
- Not intimately.

93
00:08:33,363 --> 00:08:36,526
- Do you see him very often?
- Almost never. Always at a distance.

94
00:08:36,599 --> 00:08:38,124
Tell me about him, Paul.

95
00:08:38,868 --> 00:08:40,233
He is the hope
of the world, Marie.

96
00:08:40,336 --> 00:08:41,804
Just think...

97
00:08:42,005 --> 00:08:45,441
at the age of 30, he graduated from cadet
the Emperor of France.

98
00:08:47,343 --> 00:08:51,712
It's so strange to live in the same
world than him and not see him.

99
00:08:51,781 --> 00:08:54,250
- One day, who knows?
- And what is the empress like?

100
00:08:54,350 --> 00:08:56,614
Much older,
grown children.

101
00:08:56,686 --> 00:08:58,620
But no children of his.

102
00:08:59,789 --> 00:09:01,757
Count Walewski
You also have children, don't you?

103
00:09:02,292 --> 00:09:06,092
My dear, I have
a grandson your age.

104
00:09:06,529 --> 00:09:07,963
Maybe a little older.

105
00:09:08,565 --> 00:09:10,727
The count is a man
charming and distinguished.

106
00:09:11,234 --> 00:09:12,531
Isn't that right?

107
00:09:12,602 --> 00:09:16,869
Have you ever seen someone so courteous, generous
and so truly noble?

108
00:09:17,741 --> 00:09:20,108
- Are you happy?
- Of course.

109
00:09:20,210 --> 00:09:21,803
I want everything
good for you.

110
00:09:21,878 --> 00:09:26,543
But I don't want everything.
I just want to see our country free.

111
00:09:27,050 --> 00:09:28,677
Tell me more about the emperor.

112
00:09:29,919 --> 00:09:35,221
To this day he sleeps on a cot,
like any soldier.

113
00:09:35,291 --> 00:09:37,783
Don't care about
food and is tireless.

114
00:09:37,894 --> 00:09:39,760
Work more than
any of us.

115
00:09:40,130 --> 00:09:42,758
Knows more than anyone
thinker in the world!

116
00:09:43,666 --> 00:09:48,627
When he passes by the wounded, they
they seem comforted, proud,

117
00:09:49,405 --> 00:09:52,864
and die happy,
as if he were a god.

118
00:09:54,244 --> 00:09:57,270
Then it will be God
that will save Poland!

119
00:09:58,348 --> 00:10:01,511
Return!
March!

120
00:10:03,419 --> 00:10:05,285
Unfortunately I have to
continue to Yarnow.

121
00:10:05,355 --> 00:10:07,289
If you stayed here, maybe
could see the Emperor.

122
00:10:07,457 --> 00:10:09,789
- The Emperor here?
- He will change horses in Bronie

123
00:10:09,859 --> 00:10:10,792
in about 2 hours.

124
00:10:10,860 --> 00:10:12,521
In Bronie?

125
00:10:13,930 --> 00:10:17,059
- God bless you, sister.
- God bless you.

126
00:10:19,135 --> 00:10:23,072
Regiment! Forward!

127
00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:32,712
It's cold here,
Countess Marie.

128
00:10:35,318 --> 00:10:39,653
Prepare the sleigh and horses,
Stephan. I'm going to Bronie.

129
00:10:39,789 --> 00:10:40,950
For Bronie?

130
00:11:03,813 --> 00:11:05,577
Let's stretch our legs.

131
00:11:09,552 --> 00:11:13,147
- Poland is hard on horses.
- Worse for our spine.

132
00:11:13,223 --> 00:11:16,682
I don't understand why Russia and Prussia
They went to so much trouble to share it.

133
00:11:16,893 --> 00:11:18,827
It was the only prey within reach!

134
00:11:20,230 --> 00:11:23,029
If it is to fight in winter,
before it was closer to Paris.

135
00:11:23,233 --> 00:11:26,225
If you were Napoleon,
Duroc, it certainly would be.

136
00:11:28,037 --> 00:11:29,402
Always a joke!

137
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,274
Get out of there!

138
00:11:33,109 --> 00:11:35,305
- What happened, D'Ornano?
- A woman, Your Majesty.

139
00:11:35,411 --> 00:11:36,776
Get out of there!

140
00:11:48,391 --> 00:11:49,552
Who are you?

141
00:11:51,027 --> 00:11:53,496
- Marie Walewska.
- Marie Walewska.

142
00:11:54,631 --> 00:11:59,660
- Did you come here to pray?
- Yes... no, Your Majesty.

143
00:11:59,769 --> 00:12:02,295
Majesty?
So you know who I am.

144
00:12:02,605 --> 00:12:05,302
Yes, Your Majesty,
I knew immediately.

145
00:12:05,408 --> 00:12:07,342
What are you doing here?
Marie Walewska?

146
00:12:08,478 --> 00:12:13,245
- It had to come, Your Majesty.
- Like this? Was it sent? By whom?

147
00:12:13,650 --> 00:12:15,084
By no one, Your Majesty.

148
00:12:15,585 --> 00:12:19,852
But it's in Poland,
in my country, finally.

149
00:12:19,923 --> 00:12:22,119
The moment I dreamed of
since it was...

150
00:12:22,225 --> 00:12:24,216
Ah, a patriot!

151
00:12:24,294 --> 00:12:26,058
I need to know
better the Poles.

152
00:12:26,129 --> 00:12:27,460
The carriage is
Ready, Your Majesty.

153
00:12:28,231 --> 00:12:31,690
Are you real or were you born
of a snow mountain?

154
00:12:32,802 --> 00:12:34,930
As His Majesty prefers.

155
00:12:35,004 --> 00:12:37,974
The snow disappears,
I prefer it to be real.

156
00:12:39,676 --> 00:12:40,871
Quite real.

157
00:12:40,977 --> 00:12:41,910
- Sir.
- Yes?

158
00:12:41,978 --> 00:12:44,447
The horses are ready.
There are still 40 km to go until dawn.

159
00:12:44,514 --> 00:12:47,711
Very good.
Marie Walewska.

160
00:12:48,451 --> 00:12:50,818
We need to build a
temple here, D'Ornano.

161
00:13:08,838 --> 00:13:10,670
TWO WEEKS LATER

162
00:13:10,873 --> 00:13:13,205
PRINCE PONIATOWSKI'S PALACE

163
00:13:13,443 --> 00:13:14,933
WARSAW

164
00:13:21,884 --> 00:13:23,682
Warsaw is wonderful!

165
00:13:23,886 --> 00:13:28,983
I attended many dances like this
before our Poland was divided.

166
00:13:30,193 --> 00:13:33,390
- My dear Walewski!
- Senator!

167
00:13:36,499 --> 00:13:39,764
- The Cossacks know how to use whips.
- My poor friend!

168
00:13:41,037 --> 00:13:44,473
May God grant that our years of
vassalage be numbered!

169
00:13:44,574 --> 00:13:46,838
If Napoleon consents,
God must want it.

170
00:13:47,043 --> 00:13:50,673
Marie, this is our great statesman
and patriot, Senator Malachowski.

171
00:13:50,913 --> 00:13:52,745
- My wife.
- Madam!

172
00:13:53,216 --> 00:13:56,675
I kiss the hand that refused
give up our independence.

173
00:13:56,819 --> 00:13:57,980
Thanks.

174
00:13:59,722 --> 00:14:03,818
Duke of Talleyrand, Prince of Benevento,
Minister of Foreign Affairs

175
00:14:03,926 --> 00:14:07,260
and Grand Chamberlain of
His Majesty the Emperor.

176
00:14:09,499 --> 00:14:11,297
The Emperor has arrived.

177
00:14:15,071 --> 00:14:19,565
Let's go to our seats, honey.
We will be presented to the Emperor.

178
00:14:20,343 --> 00:14:21,811
Presented to the emperor?

179
00:14:21,944 --> 00:14:24,572
It's the surprise I promised you.

180
00:14:40,696 --> 00:14:43,495
His Majesty the Emperor.

181
00:15:13,896 --> 00:15:15,386
Senator Malachowski.

182
00:15:15,598 --> 00:15:16,895
Me too, Senator,

183
00:15:16,999 --> 00:15:20,299
I always refused to accept
dictates of the enemies of my homeland.

184
00:15:20,470 --> 00:15:21,596
Count Potowski.

185
00:15:21,737 --> 00:15:24,104
I know the story
from your illustrious family, Count.

186
00:15:24,173 --> 00:15:26,835
- I need to tell you something.
- What happened, dear?

187
00:15:27,110 --> 00:15:28,236
Well, I... I...

188
00:15:28,311 --> 00:15:30,439
Count and Countess
Nicolai Stakowska.

189
00:15:30,646 --> 00:15:35,641
In my old age I will be able to write:
"During my reign, beauty prospered."

190
00:15:35,985 --> 00:15:37,953
Prince and Princess Novomirska.

191
00:15:38,421 --> 00:15:40,753
- Countess Votowska.
- Countess.

192
00:15:41,824 --> 00:15:44,418
Greet you, Your Majesty,
is to go down in history.

193
00:15:44,494 --> 00:15:47,623
- Do you think this is good?
- Oh, Your Majesty!

194
00:15:47,697 --> 00:15:49,688
- Prince and Princess Mirska.
- Princess.

195
00:15:49,799 --> 00:15:52,734
What happiness it is to live
in your era, Majesty.

196
00:15:52,802 --> 00:15:55,737
- I share your happiness.
- Your Majesty.

197
00:15:55,838 --> 00:15:59,206
The Chamberlain, Count Anastas Walewski
and Countess Walewska.

198
00:15:59,442 --> 00:16:04,471
His son, Count Augustus Walewski
and Countess Augustus Walewska.

199
00:16:06,215 --> 00:16:10,243
Walewski...
The name is familiar to me.

200
00:16:10,553 --> 00:16:12,647
Are you the Camarista's granddaughter?

201
00:16:13,222 --> 00:16:14,712
Your wife, Your Majesty.

202
00:16:16,659 --> 00:16:19,458
Your wife...
Whose chamberlain are you, Count?

203
00:16:19,529 --> 00:16:21,657
From the last king of
Poland, Your Majesty.

204
00:16:21,731 --> 00:16:25,690
That was almost 40 years ago.
He must have been very young.

205
00:16:25,801 --> 00:16:27,997
I'm 75 years old, Your Majesty.

206
00:16:28,137 --> 00:16:30,936
- Is this your first wife?
- My third, Your Majesty.

207
00:16:31,007 --> 00:16:34,204
I must congratulate you
for extreme good taste.

208
00:16:34,810 --> 00:16:36,175
How old are you, madam?

209
00:16:36,746 --> 00:16:38,510
If it is an order, Your Majesty,

210
00:16:38,581 --> 00:16:41,016
would be one that every woman
has the right to disobey.

211
00:16:41,150 --> 00:16:42,311
Brave response.

212
00:16:42,385 --> 00:16:44,911
I will never forget an act of courage,
whether male or female.

213
00:16:45,221 --> 00:16:47,747
- Is this your son?
- Yes, Your Majesty.

214
00:16:47,990 --> 00:16:49,958
-This?
- My grandson.

215
00:16:50,493 --> 00:16:52,154
My congratulations.

216
00:16:52,228 --> 00:16:55,755
For a grandmother, it is extraordinarily
well preserved.

217
00:16:55,898 --> 00:16:59,528
It's a shame I didn't meet her younger.

218
00:17:01,671 --> 00:17:03,435
Count and Countess Igor Ougenska.

219
00:17:04,707 --> 00:17:06,334
What can you tell me?

220
00:17:06,842 --> 00:17:08,435
It wasn't important.

221
00:17:26,295 --> 00:17:28,923
Talleyrand, this
prom overshadows yours.

222
00:17:29,131 --> 00:17:31,566
There is no demerit in being overshadowed
by friends, Your Majesty.

223
00:17:31,801 --> 00:17:34,293
Companions,
Be careful with my Minister.

224
00:17:34,537 --> 00:17:37,302
He will promise them everything
and give them, well...

225
00:17:37,373 --> 00:17:38,704
much less.

226
00:17:38,774 --> 00:17:41,072
- While I promise them nothing...
- Nothing, Your Majesty?

227
00:17:41,143 --> 00:17:45,102
Nothing, Senator, but
I will give you much more.

228
00:17:45,214 --> 00:17:46,841
We don't expect promises.

229
00:17:46,916 --> 00:17:49,112
Dispatched his soldiers
in a new mobilization

230
00:17:49,218 --> 00:17:51,050
because it represents
a new spirit in Europe.

231
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:53,316
My soldiers are so brave
as the Poles.

232
00:17:53,422 --> 00:17:55,356
I admire them so much
as the French.

233
00:17:55,458 --> 00:17:58,120
With emissaries of this breed,
there are high hopes.

234
00:17:58,227 --> 00:18:01,857
Beautiful women. I imagine that
the dresses are from Paris.

235
00:18:02,431 --> 00:18:04,957
What else do we export?
beyond freedom.

236
00:18:05,067 --> 00:18:07,195
I didn't know freedom was so
important to you, Prince.

237
00:18:07,270 --> 00:18:09,864
All I learned was
with Your Majesty.

238
00:18:10,172 --> 00:18:13,039
We are ready to give
our blood, Your Majesty.

239
00:18:14,176 --> 00:18:16,167
Talleyrand will tell them
what we need.

240
00:18:16,412 --> 00:18:18,608
- This Count Walewski...
- Yes, Your Majesty?

241
00:18:18,681 --> 00:18:22,618
Must be very rich to support
such a beautiful and young woman.

242
00:18:22,685 --> 00:18:23,777
He's very rich.

243
00:18:23,853 --> 00:18:25,685
We really need
of your protection, Majesty.

244
00:18:25,788 --> 00:18:29,315
My presence here
It is a proof of friendship.

245
00:18:29,592 --> 00:18:33,256
This Countess Walewska
must have been very poor.

246
00:18:34,764 --> 00:18:36,459
She was, Your Majesty.

247
00:18:36,632 --> 00:18:38,623
We appreciate your
solidarity, Your Majesty.

248
00:18:38,968 --> 00:18:43,303
Unfortunately, this is not enough to prevent
let enemies divide us.

249
00:18:43,372 --> 00:18:47,639
We need your protection,
an alliance that gives us security.

250
00:18:47,710 --> 00:18:50,042
I undertake to take care
for your interests.

251
00:18:50,146 --> 00:18:51,113
Duroc.

252
00:19:09,865 --> 00:19:13,631
- You're being cheeky, Captain.
- It's not my intention, I want to be honest.

253
00:19:13,703 --> 00:19:15,671
- Captain D'Ornano.
- Marshal.

254
00:19:16,472 --> 00:19:18,600
Countess, I present to you
Marshal Duroc.

255
00:19:18,808 --> 00:19:21,641
I would grant the honor
of the first dance, madam?

256
00:19:21,711 --> 00:19:24,305
I'm sorry, it's already promised
to Captain D'Ornano.

257
00:19:24,380 --> 00:19:27,577
His Majesty suggests
let the Captain go to rest,

258
00:19:27,683 --> 00:19:29,310
the trip was exhausting.

259
00:19:32,488 --> 00:19:35,321
Forgive me if I was attacked
of sudden tiredness.

260
00:19:35,725 --> 00:19:38,387
If the Emperor allows me,
I forgive him.

261
00:19:38,828 --> 00:19:40,193
But nothing stops...

262
00:19:41,063 --> 00:19:42,497
May I dream about you.

263
00:19:45,167 --> 00:19:46,362
If I can sleep.

264
00:20:18,601 --> 00:20:20,865
Should have brought her
along with me from Bronie.

265
00:20:22,071 --> 00:20:24,096
would be infringing
the rules, Your Majesty.

266
00:20:24,206 --> 00:20:26,300
It was one of my few mistakes.

267
00:20:26,375 --> 00:20:28,901
Good thing the campaign
it's just beginning.

268
00:20:31,046 --> 00:20:35,643
- Do I dance well, Countess?
- Your Majesty dances beautifully!

269
00:20:35,718 --> 00:20:37,846
It must be your inspiration.

270
00:21:15,624 --> 00:21:17,092
It's calling to
Attention, Your Majesty.

271
00:21:17,293 --> 00:21:20,228
It wouldn't be the first time.
I'm glad to see you again.

272
00:21:20,296 --> 00:21:22,321
You are violating the
rules, Your Majesty.

273
00:21:23,933 --> 00:21:25,094
Form a line!

274
00:21:30,639 --> 00:21:32,937
Did you see how the rules
follow the conduct?

275
00:21:41,851 --> 00:21:43,945
Can you see me tomorrow, Countess?

276
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:45,612
No, Your Majesty.

277
00:21:45,688 --> 00:21:47,816
That night he came to see me,
wasn't it?

278
00:21:47,890 --> 00:21:49,654
But not to be seen.

279
00:21:49,725 --> 00:21:52,057
That night I followed an impulse
of hero worship.

280
00:21:52,161 --> 00:21:54,186
You can't follow
that impulse again?

281
00:21:54,330 --> 00:21:56,492
Yes, Your Majesty,
but from a distance.

282
00:22:00,369 --> 00:22:02,963
I must understand that if
Did you disappoint, madam?

283
00:22:03,138 --> 00:22:05,129
- No, Your Majesty...
- And then?

284
00:22:05,674 --> 00:22:07,768
I'm afraid of being disappointed,
Majesty.

285
00:22:07,977 --> 00:22:09,467
You are being discourteous!

286
00:22:09,545 --> 00:22:11,240
It wasn't mine
intention, Your Majesty.

287
00:22:12,014 --> 00:22:13,948
They're watching us, Your Majesty.

288
00:22:16,752 --> 00:22:20,117
Sorry, I'm not used to this.
It's my first visit to Warsaw.

289
00:22:20,322 --> 00:22:22,450
Mine too.
What a beautiful coincidence!

290
00:22:22,525 --> 00:22:24,459
Tomorrow we will compare
our impressions.

291
00:22:25,060 --> 00:22:28,086
I'll send Duroc to get her.
He will lead you to me.

292
00:22:28,898 --> 00:22:30,491
I have a husband, Your Majesty.

293
00:22:30,566 --> 00:22:32,056
He's twice your age!

294
00:22:32,701 --> 00:22:36,729
He has his dignity,
your honor and your pride.

295
00:22:36,839 --> 00:22:38,170
Just like me, Your Majesty.

296
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,107
Now I understand.
It's the pride they have in common!

297
00:22:42,545 --> 00:22:44,877
This does not match a
conqueror, Your Majesty.

298
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,845
When you have conquered, Countess,
you can teach me lessons!

299
00:22:47,917 --> 00:22:51,717
I don't intend to teach you anything.
Allow me to withdraw, Your Majesty.

300
00:22:51,854 --> 00:22:53,049
You're being presumptuous!

301
00:22:54,056 --> 00:22:57,219
- You have just destroyed a god, Your Majesty.
- We are not in times of gods.

302
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:01,353
I thought I had recreated them.
I see I was wrong.

303
00:23:09,104 --> 00:23:10,128
Duroc.

304
00:23:28,757 --> 00:23:32,625
I've never seen him so excited.

305
00:23:34,263 --> 00:23:38,131
Gentlemen, behold
his ambassador there.

306
00:23:47,776 --> 00:23:50,211
I can only think
and dream about you.

307
00:23:50,412 --> 00:23:53,677
My affection for your country
would only increase

308
00:23:53,816 --> 00:23:56,945
if you took pity on my loneliness.
N.

309
00:24:14,370 --> 00:24:17,237
I'm beginning to think that your Emperor
admire you, my dear.

310
00:24:17,473 --> 00:24:19,441
I keep this together
with the others?

311
00:24:23,812 --> 00:24:26,179
He is very agile,
This is your Emperor.

312
00:24:27,483 --> 00:24:31,317
It must be necessary since you want
conquer the world.

313
00:24:31,487 --> 00:24:35,424
But not to conquer a ballroom
or a woman, don't you think?

314
00:24:36,291 --> 00:24:38,282
- What should I do?
- To do?

315
00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:42,456
These letters, these flowers,
these insults to you.

316
00:24:44,633 --> 00:24:48,729
How about we go inland,
far from it all?

317
00:24:49,038 --> 00:24:52,474
Yes, that would be a good idea.

318
00:24:52,641 --> 00:24:54,405
Of course it would be.

319
00:24:54,977 --> 00:24:59,141
His Highness, Prince Poniatowski,
Your Excellency, Senator Wabitchka.

320
00:24:59,248 --> 00:25:00,511
My dear Prince...

321
00:25:00,883 --> 00:25:03,375
Senator...
Senator Wabitchka.

322
00:25:03,485 --> 00:25:06,147
- I hope I don't bother you.
- Welcome.

323
00:25:06,221 --> 00:25:07,518
Excuse me.

324
00:25:09,158 --> 00:25:11,183
I ask you to stay, Countess.

325
00:25:13,562 --> 00:25:16,759
We still haven't made it
the Emperor's final word.

326
00:25:17,833 --> 00:25:21,360
The Duke of Talleyrand is our friend.
He sympathizes with our cause,

327
00:25:21,437 --> 00:25:23,428
but cannot guarantee
our independence.

328
00:25:23,539 --> 00:25:26,372
Our efforts with
Napoleon have been useless.

329
00:25:26,442 --> 00:25:27,409
Thank you, madam.

330
00:25:27,509 --> 00:25:29,443
He doesn't promise us anything.

331
00:25:30,212 --> 00:25:32,806
Now ask us
40,000 more men,

332
00:25:33,015 --> 00:25:34,710
more horses, cannons,
equipment...

333
00:25:34,917 --> 00:25:38,376
Malakovski has already given away all his fortune
for Napoleon's army.

334
00:25:38,587 --> 00:25:41,716
The point is, if we refuse,
Poland will be lost.

335
00:25:42,224 --> 00:25:45,524
And there are rumors that Napoleon
is negotiating with Russia.

336
00:25:45,928 --> 00:25:49,262
With an alliance between France and Russia,
imagine what would become of Poland.

337
00:25:49,765 --> 00:25:54,396
And if we accept, neither
that way we would be sure.

338
00:25:55,437 --> 00:25:58,236
- That's why we came to you.
- Me?

339
00:25:58,307 --> 00:26:01,174
Yes, my dear,
Only you can help us.

340
00:26:02,878 --> 00:26:04,539
This is...

341
00:26:05,147 --> 00:26:08,845
Excuse me to say, my dear Count,
but in certain moments of crisis

342
00:26:08,951 --> 00:26:11,215
immense sacrifices
Are these demands of the people?

343
00:26:11,420 --> 00:26:13,684
What sacrifice can we
do for Poland

344
00:26:13,756 --> 00:26:16,453
that has not already been done
protecting our honor?

345
00:26:16,658 --> 00:26:19,753
May our children and grandchildren
haven't already done it?

346
00:26:19,828 --> 00:26:24,425
They are suggesting that I can succeed
Where did the Polish legions fail?

347
00:26:24,900 --> 00:26:26,595
Is that it, gentlemen?

348
00:26:27,302 --> 00:26:28,565
Yes.

349
00:26:29,905 --> 00:26:34,103
My young lady... I'm an old man,
I can call her that.

350
00:26:34,843 --> 00:26:39,110
Know that we would have given
our life to spare her from this,

351
00:26:39,181 --> 00:26:42,811
as we have done with our
assets and our pride.

352
00:26:43,152 --> 00:26:45,519
In vain we kneel
in front of this man.

353
00:26:45,754 --> 00:26:48,086
Maybe with the
lady be different.

354
00:26:48,357 --> 00:26:53,022
We came to you because we believe that
the fate of Poland is in your hands.

355
00:26:53,929 --> 00:26:56,455
Therefore, no
it would be a dishonor to him.

356
00:26:57,332 --> 00:27:01,428
Maybe I was born beautiful to
so that Poland can be liberated.

357
00:27:02,604 --> 00:27:06,768
You are a woman and Napoleon,
After all, just one man.

358
00:27:06,975 --> 00:27:10,605
And like anyone else,
perhaps it can be taken to

359
00:27:11,046 --> 00:27:13,743
give without asking for anything in return.

360
00:27:17,386 --> 00:27:18,751
Goodbye, friend.

361
00:27:22,457 --> 00:27:25,119
This was the most
unhappy in my life.

362
00:27:33,569 --> 00:27:34,559
Sirs!

363
00:27:34,837 --> 00:27:38,171
I didn't want to upset my
wife with your presence,

364
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,540
which of you is responsible
for this ignoble visit?

365
00:27:41,643 --> 00:27:46,012
- Which one of you should I duel?
-You would have to kill us all, my friend.

366
00:27:46,548 --> 00:27:50,041
At crucial moments, we put
our country's honor above yours.

367
00:27:50,586 --> 00:27:52,611
The country is yours too, Anastas.

368
00:27:54,423 --> 00:27:57,290
Why every time
that this savage spits

369
00:27:57,392 --> 00:28:00,054
every honorable man
Should you wipe your face?

370
00:28:01,063 --> 00:28:04,556
Be aware that the
Countess Walewska will see this afternoon

371
00:28:04,666 --> 00:28:06,634
as part of our nightmare.

372
00:28:06,735 --> 00:28:09,102
Something to be piously forgotten!

373
00:28:10,172 --> 00:28:11,640
Goodbye, gentlemen.

374
00:28:18,247 --> 00:28:20,181
What are you in
thinking, Marie?

375
00:28:23,185 --> 00:28:26,849
I thought if one day
my countrymen will say:

376
00:28:27,289 --> 00:28:32,625
"There goes Marie Walewska, who could
to have saved Poland, and it didn't."

377
00:28:32,728 --> 00:28:37,063
My dear, great men
they can also be mistaken.

378
00:28:37,733 --> 00:28:40,896
From so much aiming for shine
of Polish freedom,

379
00:28:40,969 --> 00:28:44,803
Maybe they no longer see the way
to take to achieve it.

380
00:28:45,374 --> 00:28:47,638
If Poland is to be saved,

381
00:28:47,943 --> 00:28:50,537
It won't be that way, Marie.

382
00:29:09,798 --> 00:29:11,926
MY CARE FOR YOUR COUNTRY
IT WOULD ONLY INCREASE

383
00:29:12,134 --> 00:29:14,296
SEVEN APIEDASSES
OF MY LONELINESS.

384
00:29:16,772 --> 00:29:18,103
Oh, madam.

385
00:29:19,174 --> 00:29:21,541
What a surprise.
The Emperor will be happy.

386
00:29:43,165 --> 00:29:46,191
Forgive me, madam, but
my duties are inexorable.

387
00:29:46,435 --> 00:29:48,130
Continue with the
sovereign of Prussia.

388
00:29:48,270 --> 00:29:50,602
"If Your Highness accepts

389
00:29:50,672 --> 00:29:53,835
contribute 300 heads
of cattle, and 40,000 men..."

390
00:29:54,009 --> 00:29:56,444
Make 50,000.
There's no point in bargaining.

391
00:29:56,511 --> 00:30:01,449
"...and 50,000 men, the conquest
of India will be guaranteed."

392
00:30:01,516 --> 00:30:03,883
You can go to sleep.
We'll see you in a few hours.

393
00:30:03,986 --> 00:30:06,455
So, finally you came!

394
00:30:07,990 --> 00:30:09,822
I expected that
came earlier.

395
00:30:10,192 --> 00:30:13,787
Why didn't you come last week,
after my first letter?

396
00:30:16,298 --> 00:30:18,596
I'm afraid His Majesty
don't understand.

397
00:30:18,967 --> 00:30:20,230
I understand perfectly.

398
00:30:20,736 --> 00:30:23,899
He decided to make
coquettish with me.

399
00:30:24,172 --> 00:30:27,164
It didn't even pass me by
head, Your Majesty.

400
00:30:27,242 --> 00:30:28,710
That's better.

401
00:30:29,011 --> 00:30:31,776
I appreciate coquetry
when it is instinctive.

402
00:30:31,980 --> 00:30:33,914
But now you need to recant.

403
00:30:34,149 --> 00:30:36,982
I was looking forward to seeing her
all week.

404
00:30:37,185 --> 00:30:40,644
A week of hours that
would have brought us happiness!

405
00:30:41,056 --> 00:30:45,892
You are the only woman for whom
I already had to beg for favors.

406
00:30:46,661 --> 00:30:49,631
I understand how you
It must be hard to beg.

407
00:30:49,831 --> 00:30:51,492
Even for me...

408
00:30:51,700 --> 00:30:53,964
What a lovely supplicant
You must be.

409
00:30:54,069 --> 00:30:55,867
Come on, Marie,
take off your coat.

410
00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:58,973
Ready.

411
00:31:01,576 --> 00:31:02,600
Sit down.

412
00:31:03,545 --> 00:31:06,310
The hat too.
Hide your beautiful hair.

413
00:31:07,682 --> 00:31:09,047
That's better.

414
00:31:09,551 --> 00:31:11,019
What soft hair.

415
00:31:11,186 --> 00:31:12,984
Like a child's.

416
00:31:14,122 --> 00:31:18,218
I love that face. Didn't take it off
his eyes during the dance.

417
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,955
While Talleyrand and others
They were talking about politics and I thought:

418
00:31:22,597 --> 00:31:26,397
"I have to hold that
proud face in my hands,

419
00:31:26,468 --> 00:31:29,768
I have to kiss that mouth,
that beautiful mouth...

420
00:31:29,871 --> 00:31:31,236
made just to be loved."

421
00:31:35,877 --> 00:31:37,743
You're shy, Marie.

422
00:31:42,717 --> 00:31:46,244
This is not your first
case, Marie, or is it?

423
00:31:47,089 --> 00:31:49,558
- I've never had affairs, Your Majesty!
- None?

424
00:31:49,658 --> 00:31:52,184
I only love one thing: my country!

425
00:31:52,794 --> 00:31:55,559
Help him, Your Majesty.
We are in your hands.

426
00:31:55,630 --> 00:31:58,998
Do not allow a proud people
Beg for what is rightfully yours!

427
00:31:59,134 --> 00:32:01,728
They are desperate
and the Lord is powerful.

428
00:32:01,803 --> 00:32:02,929
Help us, Your Majesty!

429
00:32:03,138 --> 00:32:07,268
Our brothers fought for you.
They fought for freedom

430
00:32:07,342 --> 00:32:09,606
with the same ardor
with which he fought for France.

431
00:32:09,744 --> 00:32:13,442
This does not constitute a link
between you and freedom?

432
00:32:14,583 --> 00:32:17,075
His Majesty is the
hope of the world.

433
00:32:17,419 --> 00:32:20,047
A word from you
and we will be free.

434
00:32:20,188 --> 00:32:22,714
Say it, Your Majesty, say it!

435
00:32:22,824 --> 00:32:24,451
Beautiful.

436
00:32:25,527 --> 00:32:27,552
You are beautiful,
Marie Walewska.

437
00:32:27,929 --> 00:32:30,261
I sought him out as a woman.

438
00:32:30,432 --> 00:32:33,026
A desperate woman
for the cause of his country.

439
00:32:33,168 --> 00:32:35,136
Forgive me, Your Majesty,
but there was no other way.

440
00:32:35,871 --> 00:32:39,364
I speak on behalf of
a broken people.

441
00:32:39,608 --> 00:32:41,235
Can't you answer me?

442
00:32:41,710 --> 00:32:43,200
- Beautiful...
- Your Majesty!

443
00:32:43,345 --> 00:32:47,111
Let me announce
to my people that they are free.

444
00:32:47,949 --> 00:32:49,314
Who sent it?

445
00:32:50,986 --> 00:32:52,454
I love my country, Your Majesty.

446
00:32:52,521 --> 00:32:57,015
- Who sent it?
- You, Your Majesty, sent for me.

447
00:32:57,125 --> 00:32:58,718
By God, what irony!

448
00:32:59,794 --> 00:33:02,092
I hate it
nosy women,

449
00:33:02,164 --> 00:33:05,293
I lose my head over someone who
finds no to please me,

450
00:33:05,367 --> 00:33:09,235
and much less herself,
but to talk about politics.

451
00:33:10,505 --> 00:33:14,772
His letters made it clear that he knew
the only reason that would bring me here.

452
00:33:15,844 --> 00:33:19,280
- Well, now it's here...
- Not willingly, Your Majesty.

453
00:33:19,347 --> 00:33:21,372
- By my will then.
- Majesty...

454
00:33:21,516 --> 00:33:26,215
except for justice, no
Can I remove him out of pity?

455
00:33:26,354 --> 00:33:30,723
Pity is for the despicable,
these do not concern us!

456
00:33:34,062 --> 00:33:35,223
Stop!

457
00:34:05,093 --> 00:34:06,424
Leave it alone, Stephan.

458
00:34:07,929 --> 00:34:11,388
- Go to sleep.
- I heard Countess Marie's sleigh...

459
00:34:11,700 --> 00:34:13,327
I will receive the Countess.

460
00:34:27,549 --> 00:34:28,482
Between.

461
00:34:46,101 --> 00:34:48,627
I went back to listen to my
sentence, Anastas.

462
00:34:48,737 --> 00:34:52,765
I dare not utter the words
that go through my head.

463
00:34:52,841 --> 00:34:55,435
Maybe yes. It's been forever
I say them to myself.

464
00:34:55,510 --> 00:34:57,638
My head is a
swirl of words.

465
00:34:57,746 --> 00:35:00,738
Oh, Marie!
You fool! You fool!

466
00:35:00,949 --> 00:35:06,581
Yes... foolish!
A fool.

467
00:35:14,496 --> 00:35:18,990
I will leave for Rome as soon as I can.
I will ask for our marriage to be annulled.

468
00:35:19,100 --> 00:35:23,537
The palace is yours. His income
earned should provide for your future.

469
00:35:23,605 --> 00:35:24,936
Goodbye.

470
00:35:27,942 --> 00:35:31,537
Oh... Anastas.

471
00:35:43,158 --> 00:35:44,319
What is it, Stephan?

472
00:35:44,559 --> 00:35:47,256
French soldiers are
asking for refuge for the night.

473
00:35:47,362 --> 00:35:48,796
Their general is on his way.

474
00:35:50,031 --> 00:35:54,161
Prepare the living quarters. See
how many there are, they may be hungry.

475
00:35:55,070 --> 00:36:00,668
I haven't seen one in a long time
Such a dull night at Court.

476
00:36:01,576 --> 00:36:04,705
- I'm sorry if we bothered you, madam.
- I hope you accept what I can offer.

477
00:36:04,813 --> 00:36:06,838
- He's dismissed. Wait for instructions.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

478
00:36:12,387 --> 00:36:14,583
I hope we
forgive the intrusion.

479
00:36:14,889 --> 00:36:18,223
I would be grateful if you would allow me
my men spent the night here.

480
00:36:20,729 --> 00:36:23,562
Eat of our bread and salt
and welcome to this home.

481
00:36:23,665 --> 00:36:26,600
If a guest enters
In this house, God too.

482
00:36:26,768 --> 00:36:28,862
She is very attentive,
Marie Walewska.

483
00:36:33,842 --> 00:36:36,971
I hope you are well accommodated.
Good evening, Your Majesty.

484
00:36:47,789 --> 00:36:49,655
This way, Your Majesty.

485
00:36:56,364 --> 00:36:58,025
I won't need you.
Goodnight.

486
00:37:03,037 --> 00:37:06,701
Bring coffee and tell your boss
I want to talk to her.

487
00:37:59,861 --> 00:38:01,488
Who are you?

488
00:38:04,132 --> 00:38:05,065
Who are you?

489
00:38:05,133 --> 00:38:08,933
Don't be impertinent, young man.
Reply. Who are you?

490
00:38:09,671 --> 00:38:11,503
Well, look at me.

491
00:38:11,606 --> 00:38:14,200
I've never seen him before.
Who are you?

492
00:38:15,143 --> 00:38:19,478
- I'm Napoleon.
- Napoleon? Napoleon of what?

493
00:38:22,317 --> 00:38:23,751
Bonaparte.

494
00:38:23,852 --> 00:38:26,947
Napoleon Bonaparte?
What kind of name is that?

495
00:38:27,155 --> 00:38:28,748
What is your nationality?

496
00:38:29,157 --> 00:38:33,651
I was born in Corsica, adopted by France,
Emperor by merit.

497
00:38:34,395 --> 00:38:40,027
So he is Emperor.
Emperor of what?

498
00:38:40,301 --> 00:38:41,826
Emperor of France, madam.

499
00:38:44,506 --> 00:38:46,770
So he is Emperor of France!

500
00:38:47,208 --> 00:38:52,169
So my great friend,
His Majesty Louis XVI,

501
00:38:52,247 --> 00:38:55,706
abdicated in your favor?

502
00:38:55,817 --> 00:38:58,149
At the time he didn't know,

503
00:38:58,353 --> 00:39:00,378
but in a way, yes.

504
00:39:01,155 --> 00:39:04,090
This house is turning
an insane asylum!

505
00:39:04,225 --> 00:39:05,920
I'm sorry, madam.

506
00:39:06,027 --> 00:39:10,726
We once had a guest
who claimed to be the Sultan of Turkey,

507
00:39:11,165 --> 00:39:13,634
but it was a good
card player.

508
00:39:13,768 --> 00:39:16,931
- Do you know how to play, young man?
- I've played it a few times.

509
00:39:17,372 --> 00:39:18,635
Come here!

510
00:39:19,607 --> 00:39:22,702
Why are you so distressed,
"Emperor"? Come here!

511
00:39:24,445 --> 00:39:25,469
Sit down.

512
00:39:27,382 --> 00:39:31,751
Since you are Emperor, you must
being able to play for money.

513
00:39:31,886 --> 00:39:33,081
You can determine the buy-in.

514
00:39:33,288 --> 00:39:36,417
Your money must be so
Fantastic as its title!

515
00:39:36,524 --> 00:39:40,154
- We will play for competence.
- I'm used to it. I liked.

516
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,045
What was it before
become Emperor?

517
00:40:02,417 --> 00:40:05,751
- Corporal.
- As I thought. A soldier!

518
00:40:06,287 --> 00:40:08,881
Why is it called Emperor?

519
00:40:09,057 --> 00:40:12,049
It can be both.
Alexander was.

520
00:40:12,226 --> 00:40:15,890
Every crazy person thinks
which is Alexander.

521
00:40:16,230 --> 00:40:21,532
Now, if Alexander went mad,
Who would he think he was?

522
00:40:22,604 --> 00:40:23,765
Napoleon!

523
00:40:26,941 --> 00:40:30,138
The Lady Countess
He says he's sorry, Your Majesty.

524
00:40:30,678 --> 00:40:34,444
Come on, play, Emperor,
Corporal, Alexandre!

525
00:40:34,649 --> 00:40:37,516
- Is he also Caesar?
- A little.

526
00:40:37,619 --> 00:40:40,782
-Be careful!
- That's what everyone says, madam.

527
00:40:40,922 --> 00:40:44,222
- Hey, what are you doing? The hand is mine!
- I won with a lady.

528
00:40:44,292 --> 00:40:46,283
Never seen one
queen in your life!

529
00:40:46,361 --> 00:40:48,295
Here is my queen!
Plus I have two queens!

530
00:40:48,363 --> 00:40:51,162
And Ithree.
Therefore there should be 5 in the deck.

531
00:40:51,366 --> 00:40:53,562
You're stealing, little corporal!

532
00:40:53,668 --> 00:40:55,966
If there are three, who is
You're stealing!

533
00:40:56,037 --> 00:41:00,406
How dare you say I stole it!
I'll have you kicked out of the army for this!

534
00:41:00,508 --> 00:41:02,442
One more word
and I forget that I am the Emperor!

535
00:41:02,510 --> 00:41:06,378
You'll forget, right?
Well, I'll make sure you never forget!

536
00:41:06,481 --> 00:41:07,846
I don't want to forget!

537
00:41:07,949 --> 00:41:09,212
This is an outrage!

538
00:41:09,317 --> 00:41:13,413
I will bring this to your attention
from King Louis XVI, you cheat!

539
00:41:13,554 --> 00:41:16,353
- Pelagia!
- How did this madman get here?

540
00:41:16,491 --> 00:41:17,981
He's a cheater in the game!

541
00:41:18,059 --> 00:41:19,584
Let's go to sleep, it's already late.

542
00:41:19,694 --> 00:41:21,560
He's a corporal and he cheats!

543
00:41:21,663 --> 00:41:24,132
I'm going to go out and check the silver.

544
00:41:24,198 --> 00:41:26,166
I'll check for the lady.
Let's go to bed.

545
00:41:26,234 --> 00:41:30,228
- I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
- Your Majesty? Do you still speak to him?

546
00:41:30,338 --> 00:41:32,102
- Maybe it would be more prudent.
- Prudent?

547
00:41:32,240 --> 00:41:34,208
Are you afraid of a cable?

548
00:41:34,642 --> 00:41:36,007
Just wait!

549
00:41:38,813 --> 00:41:40,076
Countess Walewska.

550
00:41:42,083 --> 00:41:44,177
She is an extraordinary figure.

551
00:41:44,819 --> 00:41:46,981
In fact.
Good evening, Your Majesty.

552
00:41:47,088 --> 00:41:48,453
Please stay.

553
00:41:49,557 --> 00:41:51,047
Is this an order, Your Majesty?

554
00:41:52,827 --> 00:41:54,522
Since you insist.

555
00:41:56,197 --> 00:41:57,665
Sit down, Marie Walewska.

556
00:42:05,173 --> 00:42:06,470
I had to come.

557
00:42:08,009 --> 00:42:11,877
I came to bring you the spoils
of a victory he did not seek:

558
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,072
my regret
and my admiration.

559
00:42:15,550 --> 00:42:18,542
Your Majesty has already demonstrated
his admiration abundantly.

560
00:42:19,020 --> 00:42:20,784
I beg you to spare me
of his repentance.

561
00:42:20,855 --> 00:42:22,448
I'm your friend, Marie.

562
00:42:23,291 --> 00:42:25,817
Not even you could do it
from a slave friend of his.

563
00:42:26,060 --> 00:42:28,586
The time for
friendship has passed.

564
00:42:31,132 --> 00:42:33,760
I have your permission
to withdraw?

565
00:42:34,569 --> 00:42:36,003
You insist.

566
00:42:39,941 --> 00:42:41,272
Marie.

567
00:42:42,777 --> 00:42:47,908
A little while ago, as I walked out the door,
this place has become unbearable.

568
00:42:48,483 --> 00:42:49,848
I feel alone.

569
00:42:50,251 --> 00:42:53,516
Loneliness is not a small thing to have
pay for power, Your Majesty?

570
00:42:54,255 --> 00:42:57,020
I must understand that
the leader of Europe,

571
00:42:57,091 --> 00:42:59,560
with 1 million men
ready to give their lives to him,

572
00:42:59,627 --> 00:43:01,891
cannot order one
be your friend?

573
00:43:02,396 --> 00:43:06,060
Why don't you make a decree?
abolishing your loneliness?

574
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,266
I appeal to your generosity, Marie.

575
00:43:08,436 --> 00:43:10,598
I will be so generous
how much it was with me.

576
00:43:11,973 --> 00:43:16,103
He says he feels alone.
But where would I find a friend?

577
00:43:16,677 --> 00:43:19,612
In your heart?
He's very full of himself.

578
00:43:20,314 --> 00:43:23,807
In your mind?
She's busy with the world!

579
00:43:24,252 --> 00:43:27,222
And your desires don't
are worthy of friendship.

580
00:43:28,122 --> 00:43:31,717
You will always be alone, Your Majesty.
But you have to bear it.

581
00:43:31,793 --> 00:43:33,989
It's even merciless
with yourself.

582
00:43:35,129 --> 00:43:37,621
It's not you who is
being merciless?

583
00:43:37,698 --> 00:43:40,895
Not me, but the truth.

584
00:43:42,003 --> 00:43:44,267
Imagine you know me
very well, isn't it?

585
00:43:44,472 --> 00:43:48,670
Your Majesty, you are enlightened!

586
00:43:49,677 --> 00:43:52,476
My victories are
Enlightened, Marie.

587
00:43:54,315 --> 00:43:56,306
But I have known some defeats.

588
00:43:59,954 --> 00:44:02,082
When I was
child at school,

589
00:44:02,190 --> 00:44:06,855
I was poor, shy, unloved.
He was thin and malnourished.

590
00:44:07,028 --> 00:44:11,397
There was a big fireplace
in the main room and it was very cold.

591
00:44:11,499 --> 00:44:15,333
I tried to get closer to the fire,
but the older boys rejected me.

592
00:44:15,636 --> 00:44:17,434
I could never warm up.

593
00:44:17,672 --> 00:44:19,800
Since then I have never been able
feel warm.

594
00:44:20,408 --> 00:44:22,536
I will never feel
sufficiently heated.

595
00:44:23,678 --> 00:44:25,271
It was a defeat.

596
00:44:26,581 --> 00:44:28,015
At 27 years old...

597
00:44:28,983 --> 00:44:32,510
I had to leave the woman I loved
to command an army of the Republic.

598
00:44:33,487 --> 00:44:36,320
The world acclaimed me
as the Savior of France.

599
00:44:37,491 --> 00:44:41,423
My wife received the news of my
victories in the arms of other men.

600
00:44:42,496 --> 00:44:43,964
Also a defeat.

601
00:44:45,333 --> 00:44:47,529
The blood ties
are strong in me.

602
00:44:48,202 --> 00:44:51,297
Raise brothers and sisters to the throne.

603
00:44:52,173 --> 00:44:57,009
They thanked me with their
quarrels, jealousy, selfishness.

604
00:44:57,678 --> 00:44:59,305
Another defeat.

605
00:45:02,917 --> 00:45:04,510
And I don't have a son.

606
00:45:05,586 --> 00:45:06,678
Nobody.

607
00:45:07,922 --> 00:45:09,890
Just my mother
continues to be...

608
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:13,521
my mother.

609
00:45:15,196 --> 00:45:16,493
But even she...

610
00:45:16,864 --> 00:45:19,856
After all, a person suffers alone,

611
00:45:20,067 --> 00:45:23,901
die alone...
dream alone...

612
00:45:26,240 --> 00:45:27,605
My dreams...

613
00:45:30,311 --> 00:45:32,780
I want to conquer the impossible:

614
00:45:33,114 --> 00:45:34,707
peace in Europe.

615
00:45:35,149 --> 00:45:37,481
Victories generate
revenge wars.

616
00:45:37,718 --> 00:45:41,086
Revenge wars
generate reprisal wars.

617
00:45:41,289 --> 00:45:43,951
An incessant cycle
of bloodshed.

618
00:45:44,058 --> 00:45:48,154
I want to end forever
with this unstable balance of power,

619
00:45:48,229 --> 00:45:51,665
synonym for war
to the slightest oscillation of the scale.

620
00:45:53,267 --> 00:45:56,362
My dream is to create
the United States of Europe.

621
00:45:57,171 --> 00:45:59,469
A new idea was
introduced into the world:

622
00:45:59,907 --> 00:46:01,773
democracy.

623
00:46:02,443 --> 00:46:04,571
Men are born
free and equal.

624
00:46:04,779 --> 00:46:08,613
We are human beings first.
Races and nations come later.

625
00:46:09,116 --> 00:46:12,416
I want a federative Europe,
with a common law.

626
00:46:12,620 --> 00:46:18,218
Common interests, common happiness,
hope for a common future.

627
00:46:23,364 --> 00:46:24,957
And they call me a tyrant.

628
00:46:26,167 --> 00:46:29,102
They scare little children
with my name.

629
00:46:31,138 --> 00:46:33,106
This is also a defeat.

630
00:46:37,445 --> 00:46:40,210
Next time you see me
like an enlightened one,

631
00:46:40,448 --> 00:46:41,938
remember this.

632
00:46:43,117 --> 00:46:44,380
Good evening, madam.

633
00:46:45,186 --> 00:46:46,711
Good evening, Your Majesty.

634
00:47:44,111 --> 00:47:45,704
I love you, Marie.

635
00:48:12,940 --> 00:48:14,931
Against my will, I love her.

636
00:48:16,110 --> 00:48:17,976
I believe in you.

637
00:48:18,412 --> 00:48:19,777
Come with me, Marie.

638
00:48:20,314 --> 00:48:23,181
I will never yearn again
by spring.

639
00:48:24,218 --> 00:48:27,188
In spring you will have
to go into combat.

640
00:48:27,254 --> 00:48:29,018
You will be in danger fighting.

641
00:48:29,156 --> 00:48:32,956
I will always long for winter,
when it will be safe.

642
00:48:33,994 --> 00:48:36,088
I signed many treaties,

643
00:48:36,997 --> 00:48:40,331
but it's the first time
that I feel at peace.

644
00:48:49,910 --> 00:48:51,435
TWO MONTHS LATER

645
00:48:51,645 --> 00:48:53,773
FINCKENSTEIN CASTLE

646
00:48:54,014 --> 00:48:56,142
EAST PRUSSIA

647
00:49:08,195 --> 00:49:10,459
Duke of Talleyrand,
welcome to Finckenstein!

648
00:49:10,831 --> 00:49:12,697
I don't think I'll ever recover!

649
00:49:12,967 --> 00:49:15,834
Finckenstein! Finckenstein!

650
00:49:16,971 --> 00:49:22,000
The world is stunned by the Emperor
gathering court 900 km out of nowhere!

651
00:49:22,276 --> 00:49:25,712
Yet we both know
Why is he here, isn't it, Duroc?

652
00:49:26,046 --> 00:49:28,413
May you know, Prince,
but I highly doubt it.

653
00:49:28,516 --> 00:49:29,984
If I'm right, will you admit it?

654
00:49:30,117 --> 00:49:33,417
You can keep teasing me,
but you won't take anything from me.

655
00:49:33,487 --> 00:49:35,353
I'm too old
to fall into traps.

656
00:49:35,556 --> 00:49:36,887
Well...

657
00:49:39,226 --> 00:49:41,251
It didn't hurt to try.

658
00:49:41,362 --> 00:49:43,558
Maybe the Emperor is here
to have privacy.

659
00:49:43,664 --> 00:49:46,656
In this case you were successful!

660
00:49:50,504 --> 00:49:52,268
- Prince.
- Count Wallenstein.

661
00:49:52,373 --> 00:49:53,807
- Excellence.
- D'Ornano.

662
00:49:53,874 --> 00:49:55,638
The Emperor awaits you.

663
00:49:55,709 --> 00:49:58,076
Unfortunately!
Otherwise I would be in Paris.

664
00:49:59,213 --> 00:50:00,510
D'Ornano...

665
00:50:00,915 --> 00:50:04,078
The Austrian emissary had the
impertinence of trying to get it out of me

666
00:50:04,185 --> 00:50:06,950
the reason why the Emperor
is in Finckenstein.

667
00:50:07,154 --> 00:50:08,417
So do you know?

668
00:50:08,489 --> 00:50:13,256
As a diplomat it is my duty to know everything.
What do you think, D'Ornano?

669
00:50:16,864 --> 00:50:20,198
As a soldier it is my duty
I don't know anything, Your Excellency.

670
00:50:20,401 --> 00:50:21,994
I will tell the Emperor that you have arrived.

671
00:50:23,771 --> 00:50:25,102
Excellence.

672
00:50:27,908 --> 00:50:29,933
Inform His Majesty that the
Duke of Talleyrand has arrived.

673
00:50:30,044 --> 00:50:31,705
It is available
of His Majesty.

674
00:50:32,079 --> 00:50:35,879
Excellent! Talleyrand will have fun
with the Ambassador of Persia.

675
00:50:40,854 --> 00:50:43,789
Keep going, Constant,
What were you going to say about the confectioner?

676
00:50:43,958 --> 00:50:48,259
He said it's not wise
leave him alone with a woman.

677
00:50:48,596 --> 00:50:50,724
- Cold water.
- Why not?

678
00:50:50,798 --> 00:50:53,995
He doesn't know how to control himself,
Majesty.

679
00:50:54,568 --> 00:50:56,559
Pounce before you even look!

680
00:50:56,637 --> 00:50:57,832
Boat, Constant?

681
00:50:57,938 --> 00:51:01,568
Figuratively speaking, Your Majesty.

682
00:51:01,775 --> 00:51:05,143
And what do women say
of this extraordinary confectioner?

683
00:51:05,613 --> 00:51:07,980
You know how it is, Your Majesty.

684
00:51:08,148 --> 00:51:11,948
I believe that consciousness
feminine is overrated.

685
00:51:15,222 --> 00:51:18,157
Do you understand how the position
It's delicate, isn't it, Constant?

686
00:51:18,259 --> 00:51:20,250
Yes, Your Majesty, yes...

687
00:51:25,332 --> 00:51:28,267
- Cold water, Your Majesty.
- Thanks.

688
00:51:28,569 --> 00:51:30,936
- You can go, Constant.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

689
00:51:31,305 --> 00:51:35,765
And tell the confectioner to take care
just your sweets!

690
00:51:35,843 --> 00:51:36,969
Of course, Your Majesty.

691
00:51:37,278 --> 00:51:40,805
Seems to like that Constant
tell you about these cases, right?

692
00:51:40,914 --> 00:51:44,373
You're right. I learn so much
with kitchen gossip

693
00:51:44,451 --> 00:51:46,249
as with the chatter of the Court.

694
00:51:46,787 --> 00:51:48,881
The kitchen is a
miniature world.

695
00:51:49,290 --> 00:51:52,157
What a small world
This is yours, Majesty.

696
00:51:52,593 --> 00:51:55,528
- It's too small for you.
- Your robe, Your Majesty.

697
00:51:57,831 --> 00:51:59,356
Let it be a lesson to you!

698
00:52:01,535 --> 00:52:06,302
That's what I call charming.
Being here alone with you.

699
00:52:06,607 --> 00:52:08,097
Alone, Your Majesty?

700
00:52:09,009 --> 00:52:10,477
With my family, of course.

701
00:52:10,778 --> 00:52:12,212
Very welcoming family.

702
00:52:12,379 --> 00:52:14,177
With a unique father.

703
00:52:14,448 --> 00:52:16,917
- Egocentric!
- And why not?

704
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:20,483
Are you ever alone?

705
00:52:20,788 --> 00:52:22,483
With you, always.

706
00:52:22,690 --> 00:52:24,055
Now... right now?

707
00:52:24,325 --> 00:52:28,353
I only see your beautiful face,
I only hear your voice.

708
00:52:29,496 --> 00:52:31,430
Do you also hear what I say?

709
00:52:31,865 --> 00:52:32,696
For example?

710
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:34,224
I love you.

711
00:52:34,735 --> 00:52:35,827
Clearly.

712
00:52:36,337 --> 00:52:38,328
One day you will stop loving me.

713
00:52:40,474 --> 00:52:42,670
He spoke?
I didn't hear her.

714
00:52:43,677 --> 00:52:44,701
He's not eating.

715
00:52:45,045 --> 00:52:46,342
And you're eating too fast.

716
00:52:46,513 --> 00:52:48,379
That's what my mom always says.

717
00:52:49,149 --> 00:52:51,447
What his mother called him
When did you get mad?

718
00:52:51,518 --> 00:52:55,955
Of several things. But you
You never call me by my name, Marie.

719
00:52:56,390 --> 00:52:58,222
It would be like me
head to History!

720
00:53:01,729 --> 00:53:04,699
What his mother called him
when did you love him?

721
00:53:05,232 --> 00:53:06,825
Napoleone.

722
00:53:07,735 --> 00:53:09,601
Napoleone.

723
00:53:11,004 --> 00:53:14,599
We're really sitting together
at the same table, in this room?

724
00:53:15,743 --> 00:53:19,236
Maybe I was actually born
from inside a snow mountain.

725
00:53:20,047 --> 00:53:22,175
You will leave into the night...

726
00:53:22,950 --> 00:53:25,885
and I will become nothing.

727
00:53:25,953 --> 00:53:31,653
No, you're not made of snow, darling.
And it has never been so real.

728
00:53:34,128 --> 00:53:35,892
Because I'm in love.

729
00:53:38,465 --> 00:53:40,092
Madly in love.

730
00:53:41,268 --> 00:53:43,032
Deeply in love.

731
00:53:44,037 --> 00:53:45,232
Where are my boots?

732
00:53:45,639 --> 00:53:48,574
Where the damn Constant
put my coat on?

733
00:53:48,709 --> 00:53:50,837
It's in front of you, Your Majesty.

734
00:53:50,944 --> 00:53:51,968
Oh, here it is.

735
00:53:53,814 --> 00:53:56,511
- Marie!
- Yes, Napoleone.

736
00:53:57,317 --> 00:53:58,682
I am really happy.

737
00:53:59,987 --> 00:54:01,182
And you?

738
00:54:02,823 --> 00:54:06,953
With a little more encouragement
I may come to love him very much.

739
00:54:08,328 --> 00:54:09,693
Don't tell me!

740
00:54:12,466 --> 00:54:16,903
My dear. You gave me
the only thing I was missing:

741
00:54:17,738 --> 00:54:19,536
a light heart.

742
00:54:24,144 --> 00:54:26,010
Could sing
so happy!

743
00:54:26,346 --> 00:54:27,871
Why don't you sing?

744
00:54:29,416 --> 00:54:32,579
I am extremely cautious
on certain issues.

745
00:54:32,686 --> 00:54:34,347
But you dance, Your Majesty.

746
00:54:35,322 --> 00:54:38,087
- Of course.
- It's not very prudent.

747
00:54:40,494 --> 00:54:45,261
Everyone says I have
a natural talent for dancing.

748
00:54:45,332 --> 00:54:46,697
Well, they lied.

749
00:54:47,167 --> 00:54:50,467
Very good!
Then I order you to teach me!

750
00:54:58,712 --> 00:54:59,873
Napoleon.

751
00:55:00,347 --> 00:55:01,678
Napoleone.

752
00:55:03,317 --> 00:55:04,409
Nonsense!

753
00:55:09,356 --> 00:55:11,654
Don't you realize that the
world awaits me?

754
00:55:11,892 --> 00:55:13,883
In that case, there is
than learning to dance!

755
00:55:13,994 --> 00:55:15,484
I will be at your side
disposition, madam.

756
00:55:29,376 --> 00:55:30,537
Good morning, gentlemen.

757
00:55:34,414 --> 00:55:36,246
Did you have a good trip, Talleyrand?

758
00:55:36,350 --> 00:55:39,547
Everything that interests me
is to serve His Majesty.

759
00:55:40,087 --> 00:55:42,522
Charming place.
Finckenstein.

760
00:55:42,990 --> 00:55:45,459
Do you think?
Well, I don't like it.

761
00:55:45,659 --> 00:55:50,831
Well, accept my conditions on
name of your superior, the Shah of Persia?

762
00:56:03,377 --> 00:56:07,211
THIS IS THE FIRST STEP, DEAR.
M.

763
00:56:09,750 --> 00:56:10,512
What?

764
00:56:11,585 --> 00:56:14,350
Your Excellency says yes, Majesty.

765
00:56:15,255 --> 00:56:17,724
So Your Excellency
changed his mind.

766
00:56:17,791 --> 00:56:21,284
Your Excellency is quite
flexible today, Your Majesty.

767
00:56:21,395 --> 00:56:25,559
My Foreign Minister would only have
to gain from this great example.

768
00:56:25,632 --> 00:56:27,259
I hope the air
by Finckenstein

769
00:56:27,367 --> 00:56:30,894
help me meet the
your desires more satisfactorily.

770
00:56:31,271 --> 00:56:32,739
I have my doubts, Talleyrand.

771
00:56:32,873 --> 00:56:36,400
Convey my message
and my thanks to your King.

772
00:56:41,715 --> 00:56:43,046
You're going to get burned, Your Majesty.

773
00:56:43,283 --> 00:56:46,719
When you focus your energy
in foreign policy you are admirable.

774
00:56:46,787 --> 00:56:47,913
Keep it up.

775
00:56:57,064 --> 00:57:00,261
If it weren't for the music
Excellent, I would have given up already.

776
00:57:00,601 --> 00:57:02,865
- Happy, dear?
- Radiant!

777
00:57:03,070 --> 00:57:05,539
Your joy is contagious.

778
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:09,569
I love you,
Napoleon Bonaparte.

779
00:57:15,449 --> 00:57:18,111
What Talleyrand wouldn't give for
know what's going on inside.

780
00:57:18,185 --> 00:57:19,118
Talleyrand?

781
00:57:19,186 --> 00:57:21,450
Yes, you're dying to know
what I do in Finckenstein.

782
00:57:21,521 --> 00:57:25,822
But I have no intention
to satisfy your curiosity.

783
00:57:29,663 --> 00:57:30,459
Between.

784
00:57:31,031 --> 00:57:36,299
The Duke of Talleyrand sends his
regards to Countess Walewska.

785
00:57:41,808 --> 00:57:43,298
Your Majesty.

786
00:57:44,478 --> 00:57:45,604
Madam.

787
00:57:46,647 --> 00:57:51,107
Glad to see a familiar face
in this charming house.

788
00:57:51,618 --> 00:57:53,882
I didn't know that
I knew the Countess.

789
00:57:53,954 --> 00:57:57,720
Not only did I meet her
how captivated I was.

790
00:57:57,791 --> 00:57:59,657
Your eyes are very generous,
Excellence.

791
00:57:59,726 --> 00:58:00,989
Just selfish.

792
00:58:01,061 --> 00:58:03,393
I consider the advice
very helpful.

793
00:58:03,530 --> 00:58:07,228
With your permission, now
Let's take care of business.

794
00:58:11,004 --> 00:58:15,441
Charming. When I was young
I also played the violin.

795
00:58:15,809 --> 00:58:17,641
- And gave up?
- Unfortunately.

796
00:58:18,178 --> 00:58:19,646
What a loss for music!

797
00:58:20,514 --> 00:58:24,451
Who knows we can
entertain you with some duets?

798
00:58:24,518 --> 00:58:26,486
Where are the documents?

799
00:58:26,820 --> 00:58:29,983
The document creating
the Grand Duchy of Warsaw.

800
00:58:30,223 --> 00:58:36,356
I am happy to inform you first
hand of the liberation of his country.

801
00:58:37,898 --> 00:58:40,424
It wouldn't be in
first hand, Your Excellency.

802
00:58:40,667 --> 00:58:45,628
However, I am happy that my seclusion
be interrupted for the first time

803
00:58:45,706 --> 00:58:50,007
by someone so dedicated
to the liberator of my country.

804
00:58:52,779 --> 00:58:54,440
Thank you, Your Excellency.

805
00:58:55,749 --> 00:58:58,514
Well, the rest can wait.

806
00:58:58,719 --> 00:59:00,813
See you later
in the reception room.

807
00:59:01,221 --> 00:59:02,882
Thank you, Your Majesty.

808
00:59:03,423 --> 00:59:04,686
Madam.

809
00:59:08,195 --> 00:59:09,822
Excellent, Marie.

810
00:59:11,031 --> 00:59:12,021
Excellent!

811
00:59:12,966 --> 00:59:16,266
A crown would fall
right in that pretty head.

812
00:59:16,703 --> 00:59:19,570
I'm only interested in being
crowned by your love.

813
00:59:20,807 --> 00:59:23,572
I wish mine was as
lasting as yours then.

814
00:59:23,810 --> 00:59:26,245
Why didn't you tell me what
What was I doing for my country?

815
00:59:26,313 --> 00:59:29,339
I intended. But always
I ended up saying "I love you".

816
00:59:29,750 --> 00:59:33,118
Talleyrand ruined
my surprise!

817
00:59:33,286 --> 00:59:36,051
He clapped his hands,
Dear Countess Marie?

818
00:59:36,123 --> 00:59:40,117
Oh no. That's enough for today.
It played beautifully.

819
00:59:40,227 --> 00:59:42,559
Thank you, Countess Marie.

820
00:59:43,296 --> 00:59:46,163
Something was wrong
with the notes.

821
00:59:46,266 --> 00:59:50,134
There goes the only man in Europe
who completely ignores me!

822
00:59:51,171 --> 00:59:53,765
- Do you find Talleyrand amusing?
- Very.

823
00:59:53,940 --> 00:59:54,873
Me too.

824
00:59:55,175 --> 00:59:58,770
Without a doubt it is the biggest
scoundrel from Europe.

825
00:59:58,979 --> 01:00:01,471
- I wouldn't do anything without him.
- Serious?

826
01:00:01,581 --> 01:00:03,948
He would do anything to destroy me.

827
01:00:04,117 --> 01:00:07,747
- Why?
- If you destroy me, you destroy the Revolution.

828
01:00:08,188 --> 01:00:10,122
The future we aspire to,

829
01:00:10,357 --> 01:00:12,792
the dreams I told you about.

830
01:00:13,460 --> 01:00:16,054
Talleyrandé or
their biggest enemy.

831
01:00:17,531 --> 01:00:20,967
So why is he your Minister?
Why do you support it?

832
01:00:21,802 --> 01:00:24,328
Because it's the best
diplomat from Europe!

833
01:00:24,538 --> 01:00:27,838
Because I'm the only person in the
world that cannot deceive.

834
01:00:28,108 --> 01:00:31,703
And because I like your talk,
more than any other.

835
01:00:33,046 --> 01:00:35,811
See, Marie, the sparrows are back.

836
01:00:36,850 --> 01:00:40,309
I feel spring in the air.
We need to gallop across the fields!

837
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:44,457
Come on, baby, and fill your lungs.
It's like wine in your veins.

838
01:00:44,825 --> 01:00:46,452
Time to march.

839
01:00:51,665 --> 01:00:52,461
Between.

840
01:00:54,367 --> 01:00:56,461
Your Excellency,
Marshal Duroc.

841
01:00:56,536 --> 01:00:57,833
Send him in.

842
01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:04,474
- So, Duroc?
- The 8th Brigade is ready to go.

843
01:01:04,544 --> 01:01:06,239
The Polish Division under the command
by General Dumbrovsky

844
01:01:06,346 --> 01:01:10,180
with twelve artillery batteries
under Marshal Mortier as well.

845
01:01:10,483 --> 01:01:11,780
Very good. Wait for me.

846
01:01:12,219 --> 01:01:14,313
Are you going to leave Finckenstein, Marshal?

847
01:01:14,487 --> 01:01:16,819
In a week no one will say
that we were here.

848
01:01:17,057 --> 01:01:19,082
- The Emperor too?
- Of course!

849
01:01:20,927 --> 01:01:22,622
Seems eager to
leave, Marshal.

850
01:01:22,729 --> 01:01:24,754
The Russians are focused
in Friedland.

851
01:01:24,865 --> 01:01:27,129
We have a small
surprise for them.

852
01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:28,292
Undoubtedly.

853
01:01:28,702 --> 01:01:32,468
I will review the troops in your honor.
You can see it from the window.

854
01:01:39,379 --> 01:01:40,642
The Emperor.

855
01:01:53,226 --> 01:01:55,024
That was Napoleon!

856
01:01:55,095 --> 01:01:58,258
He didn't even know I existed and
Suddenly I am called to introduce myself.

857
01:01:58,365 --> 01:02:01,027
I will arrange your accommodation,
Cel. Lachinski, and I'll let you know it's arrived.

858
01:02:01,101 --> 01:02:02,796
Excuse me, Captain.
Stephan!

859
01:02:02,936 --> 01:02:05,132
- Mr. Paul!
- What are you doing here?

860
01:02:05,272 --> 01:02:06,933
Is Count Walewski here?
Where is my sister?

861
01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:09,702
- No, sir... Yes, sir.
- Where are they?

862
01:02:09,910 --> 01:02:12,538
Countess Marie is
up there, sir...

863
01:02:12,612 --> 01:02:14,205
Take me to her, Stephan.

864
01:02:15,548 --> 01:02:18,518
Hurry, Stephan. Don't see
who is facing a colonel?

865
01:02:20,420 --> 01:02:22,286
Countess Walewska's brother.

866
01:02:28,061 --> 01:02:29,324
Between.

867
01:02:30,330 --> 01:02:32,094
- Countess Marie...
- Paul!

868
01:02:32,332 --> 01:02:34,664
- Oh, Paul!
- Marie, darling!

869
01:02:34,768 --> 01:02:36,600
This was the biggest surprise
of my life!

870
01:02:36,670 --> 01:02:39,970
What are you doing here? That man
Aren't you the Emperor's bodyguard?

871
01:02:40,073 --> 01:02:42,235
- Yes.
- What are you doing here?

872
01:02:43,109 --> 01:02:46,306
At the moment I am being
hugged by my favorite brother.

873
01:02:47,914 --> 01:02:49,382
You can go, Stephan.

874
01:02:49,582 --> 01:02:51,573
By the way, what do you
are you doing here?

875
01:02:51,785 --> 01:02:54,880
Paul Lachinski, Colonel of
His Majesty's Infantry.

876
01:02:55,355 --> 01:02:56,481
Here's the proof.

877
01:02:56,690 --> 01:02:58,158
Congratulations!

878
01:02:58,591 --> 01:03:02,084
My Paul, a Colonel!
How proud I am.

879
01:03:02,162 --> 01:03:06,099
And I of you. But not yet
He said why he's here.

880
01:03:07,100 --> 01:03:10,035
- Can't you guess, Paul?
- Guess?

881
01:03:11,204 --> 01:03:12,899
But of course, Poland!

882
01:03:13,173 --> 01:03:14,937
Your husband is here
to see the Emperor.

883
01:03:15,108 --> 01:03:17,543
He is not satisfied with what
What did the Emperor do for Poland?

884
01:03:18,478 --> 01:03:21,072
- Paul.
- Yes, Marie?

885
01:03:22,949 --> 01:03:24,144
Come here.

886
01:03:30,690 --> 01:03:34,957
Paul, when we were kids
we understood each other so well.

887
01:03:36,396 --> 01:03:39,229
Remember how we sat
for hours without saying a word

888
01:03:39,466 --> 01:03:42,299
knowing very well what
did the other think and feel?

889
01:03:43,303 --> 01:03:45,101
It hasn't been that long.

890
01:03:46,072 --> 01:03:48,404
- We haven't changed, have we?
- Of course!

891
01:03:50,176 --> 01:03:53,202
- I left my husband.
- Did you leave your husband?

892
01:03:53,346 --> 01:03:55,940
I love the Emperor.
That's why I'm here.

893
01:03:56,549 --> 01:03:58,347
You understand, don't you, Paul?

894
01:03:58,485 --> 01:03:59,816
This is impossible!

895
01:03:59,886 --> 01:04:02,412
- And truth.
- Marie!

896
01:04:03,757 --> 01:04:06,055
Marie, don't you
realize what he did.

897
01:04:06,159 --> 01:04:08,491
But I'm happy.
Very happy!

898
01:04:09,929 --> 01:04:11,294
Happy!

899
01:04:19,873 --> 01:04:24,470
Everyone who greeted me must have known.
They must have laughed at me.

900
01:04:24,544 --> 01:04:26,308
No, Paul! Not true!

901
01:04:26,413 --> 01:04:30,372
Strange that he saw
my merits in your arms!

902
01:04:31,551 --> 01:04:33,849
It doesn't mean anything
for my only brother

903
01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:35,888
that I have found
a reason to live?

904
01:04:35,955 --> 01:04:39,391
The two people I love most in the world,
my sister and the Emperor.

905
01:04:40,427 --> 01:04:42,555
- This ends everything!
- Don't leave me, Paul!

906
01:04:42,629 --> 01:04:45,098
I only have you left in the family.
I have no one else!

907
01:04:45,298 --> 01:04:46,663
There's the Emperor!

908
01:04:46,766 --> 01:04:48,393
Oh, Paul!

909
01:05:04,284 --> 01:05:06,446
Did you call, Countess Marie?

910
01:05:06,653 --> 01:05:09,987
No, Stephan.
Thank you, Stephan.

911
01:05:37,517 --> 01:05:40,851
TWO YEARS LATER
JULY 1809

912
01:05:40,954 --> 01:05:44,652
RUE DE LA HOUSSAIE
PARIS

913
01:05:51,531 --> 01:05:53,021
This way, Your Highness.

914
01:05:58,471 --> 01:06:00,838
I will call the Countess.

915
01:06:02,108 --> 01:06:04,042
Countess Marie.

916
01:06:17,724 --> 01:06:19,351
Is it Marie Walewska?

917
01:06:19,626 --> 01:06:21,890
- Yes, Your Highness
- I'm his mother.

918
01:06:21,961 --> 01:06:23,952
I know.
Don't want to sit down?

919
01:06:24,063 --> 01:06:26,930
Her husband petitioned Rome
to annul your marriage.

920
01:06:27,066 --> 01:06:28,830
- Yes, madam.
- At your request.

921
01:06:28,968 --> 01:06:31,494
- No, madam.
- No?

922
01:06:31,571 --> 01:06:36,202
So I didn't know that my son
Do you intend to divorce Joséphine?

923
01:06:36,309 --> 01:06:38,505
This rumor has been around for years.

924
01:06:38,578 --> 01:06:40,012
This time it's a fact.

925
01:06:42,015 --> 01:06:46,009
Well it's a strange coincidence
that my son's divorce

926
01:06:46,085 --> 01:06:48,918
and the annulment of your marriage
occur simultaneously.

927
01:06:49,989 --> 01:06:53,323
It's strange to suppose that I can
influence His Majesty

928
01:06:53,393 --> 01:06:54,588
in such a serious decision.

929
01:06:54,694 --> 01:06:55,718
Not at all!

930
01:06:55,828 --> 01:06:58,258
My son is not just Emperor,
is also a man!

931
01:06:58,531 --> 01:07:01,000
Come on, be honest with me!

932
01:07:02,101 --> 01:07:04,695
- I love him.
-And what else?

933
01:07:05,038 --> 01:07:07,700
- What else would there be?
- Be your wife.

934
01:07:07,874 --> 01:07:12,368
I never placed hope
in unattainable happiness.

935
01:07:13,046 --> 01:07:15,208
Do you accept this situation?

936
01:07:16,449 --> 01:07:18,645
If he accepts it, so do I.

937
01:07:22,755 --> 01:07:24,553
She spends a lot of time alone.

938
01:07:24,624 --> 01:07:27,719
We don't know anyone in Paris.
And no one knows us.

939
01:07:27,927 --> 01:07:31,261
In two years,
two long wars.

940
01:07:31,431 --> 01:07:34,059
One in Spain,
and now in Austria.

941
01:07:34,300 --> 01:07:38,897
As you can see, I have good reasons
to hate wars.

942
01:07:42,909 --> 01:07:44,240
I liked you.

943
01:07:45,311 --> 01:07:46,801
Sit here.

944
01:07:48,147 --> 01:07:52,584
Thanks. I also liked the lady.
It looks like him.

945
01:07:53,586 --> 01:07:57,284
It seems like we're the only ones who
They only think about his happiness.

946
01:07:57,924 --> 01:07:59,619
It's not because of a lack of selfishness

947
01:07:59,726 --> 01:08:02,696
since happiness
Ours depends on him.

948
01:08:03,229 --> 01:08:05,197
Many women do not
would think so!

949
01:08:05,465 --> 01:08:08,594
Most are not lucky
to love him as we do.

950
01:08:09,102 --> 01:08:11,093
I was unfair to you.

951
01:08:11,304 --> 01:08:15,070
Mothers are often like this
with those who love their children.

952
01:08:15,642 --> 01:08:18,942
Maybe someday I
may also be unfair

953
01:08:19,012 --> 01:08:20,707
and for the same reason.

954
01:08:24,817 --> 01:08:26,649
Are you expecting a child?

955
01:08:26,753 --> 01:08:27,777
Yes.

956
01:08:28,087 --> 01:08:30,419
- Does he know?
- Not yet.

957
01:08:37,930 --> 01:08:40,592
- When will you tell him?
- As soon as I see him.

958
01:08:40,933 --> 01:08:42,594
Countess Marie.

959
01:08:43,670 --> 01:08:45,798
Captain D'Ornano.

960
01:08:46,506 --> 01:08:47,769
D'Ornano!

961
01:08:48,107 --> 01:08:49,939
It must be a message
from the Emperor to you.

962
01:08:50,009 --> 01:08:53,639
He can't see me here.
Is there another way out of this house?

963
01:08:53,713 --> 01:08:55,044
Yes, through the garden.

964
01:08:56,482 --> 01:08:58,314
Another time you
tell me what it was.

965
01:08:58,384 --> 01:09:00,478
I can go out alone.

966
01:09:12,131 --> 01:09:13,496
Captain D'Ornano!

967
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:15,268
Tell me everything!

968
01:09:15,468 --> 01:09:17,493
I received orders to take her
immediately to Vienna.

969
01:09:17,570 --> 01:09:19,095
-Vienna?
- Immediately.

970
01:09:19,572 --> 01:09:23,372
- But I need to pack my bags...
- Then do them... immediately.

971
01:09:23,476 --> 01:09:24,739
Immediately!

972
01:09:25,345 --> 01:09:29,043
- But what about the Emperor, he...
- You're impatient to see her, madam.

973
01:09:30,483 --> 01:09:33,316
He must be tired.
Don't want to stay for dinner?

974
01:09:33,386 --> 01:09:34,581
Can I?

975
01:09:34,687 --> 01:09:37,520
But I have to
accompany her to Vienna...

976
01:09:37,590 --> 01:09:38,955
"Immediately"!

977
01:09:40,660 --> 01:09:42,355
I'll be back in an hour.

978
01:09:42,428 --> 01:09:43,953
Captain D'Ornano...

979
01:09:44,864 --> 01:09:46,354
thank you.

980
01:09:50,737 --> 01:09:52,762
Stephan, did you hear?

981
01:09:52,872 --> 01:09:57,537
Of course. We just settle in
in a place we already have to leave.

982
01:09:57,877 --> 01:09:59,572
I'm so happy, Stephan!

983
01:10:03,049 --> 01:10:04,983
THREE WEEKS LATER

984
01:10:05,184 --> 01:10:08,347
SCHÓNBRUNN CASTLE
VIENNA

985
01:10:21,567 --> 01:10:22,728
I have a message
for the Emperor.

986
01:10:22,935 --> 01:10:25,927
You'll have to wait, Captain.
There are several marshals in front of you.

987
01:10:27,774 --> 01:10:29,538
His Majesty called me.

988
01:10:30,076 --> 01:10:31,510
Marshal!

989
01:10:32,245 --> 01:10:35,237
- D'Ornano! And Paris?
- Wonderful!

990
01:10:35,948 --> 01:10:39,543
Marshal, can you advise His Majesty
that Madame Walewska has already arrived?

991
01:10:42,622 --> 01:10:46,991
It would be a disaster! Luckily still
I got some young people watching me

992
01:10:47,093 --> 01:10:49,562
whose blood was not
tainted by success.

993
01:10:49,796 --> 01:10:51,321
Duroc, you arrived at the right time!

994
01:10:51,631 --> 01:10:55,761
Listen, I'm tired of so much
English interference in the Peninsula.

995
01:10:55,902 --> 01:10:57,597
I intend to promote a blockade.

996
01:10:57,670 --> 01:10:59,138
Russia won't like it
of that, Your Majesty.

997
01:10:59,505 --> 01:11:01,132
Yes, they already told me!

998
01:11:01,407 --> 01:11:06,868
So, if you don't like it we will have
to declare war on Russia, right?

999
01:11:06,946 --> 01:11:10,143
It's all or nothing.
With His Majesty it will be everything.

1000
01:11:10,450 --> 01:11:13,317
See? Young people still
believe me!

1001
01:11:13,419 --> 01:11:14,887
I have no objection, Your Majesty.

1002
01:11:14,954 --> 01:11:19,050
At least we won't have to insist
in that dream of a unified Europe.

1003
01:11:20,193 --> 01:11:23,322
From now on, Talleyrand,
I am Europe!

1004
01:11:24,330 --> 01:11:25,957
That's all, gentlemen.

1005
01:11:26,098 --> 01:11:29,625
Now let's talk to the young man
who tried to kill me this morning.

1006
01:11:32,104 --> 01:11:33,970
Ferdinand! Max!

1007
01:11:42,482 --> 01:11:43,415
Let him go.

1008
01:11:45,618 --> 01:11:50,146
I decided to spare his life.
On one condition.

1009
01:11:50,523 --> 01:11:53,788
Make a public retraction of the
reasons he gave for murdering me.

1010
01:11:53,860 --> 01:11:57,455
I will shout the reasons in front of the squad
by firing squad, Napoleon Bonaparte.

1011
01:11:57,563 --> 01:11:59,998
Young people around the world will know
how they were betrayed by a tyrant!

1012
01:12:00,166 --> 01:12:03,625
- Take him!
- His promise of freedom was just power!

1013
01:12:03,703 --> 01:12:06,365
Power to extinguish the last spark
of freedom in Europe!

1014
01:12:06,539 --> 01:12:09,236
My voice will be stronger
than your weapons!

1015
01:12:09,408 --> 01:12:12,275
With our victory assured
things like that won't matter.

1016
01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:15,348
If only he would recant.

1017
01:12:15,548 --> 01:12:18,017
When you see the squad,
he will change his mind.

1018
01:12:20,486 --> 01:12:23,251
You were never one
revolutionary, my friend.

1019
01:12:24,824 --> 01:12:26,758
But I hope you're right.

1020
01:12:26,859 --> 01:12:29,157
- Your Majesty.
- Yes, Duroc.

1021
01:12:30,162 --> 01:12:31,596
Madame Walewska ends
arriving from Paris.

1022
01:12:31,764 --> 01:12:34,631
As? Why didn't they tell me?
Go call her!

1023
01:12:34,734 --> 01:12:36,099
Leave it. I will go to her.

1024
01:12:36,202 --> 01:12:39,297
Forgive my dark presence
at such a happy time, Your Majesty.

1025
01:12:39,572 --> 01:12:40,562
Regarding your divorce...

1026
01:12:40,740 --> 01:12:43,107
It has already been decided.
You can get going!

1027
01:12:43,209 --> 01:12:46,702
Yes, but we were talking about something else.
Of what comes next.

1028
01:12:47,179 --> 01:12:49,876
Oh... Oh, yes...

1029
01:12:50,616 --> 01:12:52,914
Well... Duroc...

1030
01:12:53,019 --> 01:12:56,478
Greet the Countess for me
and say I'll wait for you for dinner.

1031
01:12:56,556 --> 01:12:57,990
- Yes, Your Majesty.
- And, Duroc...

1032
01:12:58,057 --> 01:13:02,824
Fill your apartment with flowers.
Red roses. She loves it.

1033
01:13:02,962 --> 01:13:03,952
Very well, Your Majesty.

1034
01:13:04,096 --> 01:13:06,428
- Well, keep it brief.
- That's what I want, Your Majesty.

1035
01:13:06,566 --> 01:13:08,591
Agreed that just
two of the royal families

1036
01:13:08,701 --> 01:13:11,693
would be beneficial to you
in terms of marriage.

1037
01:13:11,771 --> 01:13:14,706
In my opinion, an alliance
with Russia it would be more political

1038
01:13:14,774 --> 01:13:17,709
as a union with the
Habsburgs would be more prolific.

1039
01:13:18,544 --> 01:13:21,570
Here's a Romanov, Your Majesty.

1040
01:13:21,647 --> 01:13:25,584
And here a Habsburg,
Princess Marie Louise.

1041
01:13:26,252 --> 01:13:30,587
Well, you know these royal bloodlines.
Which will give me a dynasty?

1042
01:13:30,723 --> 01:13:32,521
If you think about your
succession, Majesty,

1043
01:13:32,592 --> 01:13:37,257
I can only say that grandmother
Marie Louise had sixteen children.

1044
01:13:37,330 --> 01:13:40,265
Oh, ten... sixteen?

1045
01:13:40,967 --> 01:13:45,063
Oh, may God protect her!
That decides everything!

1046
01:13:45,271 --> 01:13:48,866
Tell me, Emperor
would you oppose the union?

1047
01:13:49,108 --> 01:13:52,908
The Emperor is on the run.
You have no choice but to accept.

1048
01:13:54,347 --> 01:13:56,281
Marie Louise.

1049
01:13:56,916 --> 01:13:59,408
Too bad "Marie"
be part of the name.

1050
01:13:59,485 --> 01:14:02,614
"Hamburg" is what
matters in the name.

1051
01:14:02,788 --> 01:14:07,658
Yes, yes, for the Napoleons
that will happen to me.

1052
01:14:08,761 --> 01:14:11,628
-What is that?
- Fireworks for your birthday.

1053
01:14:13,466 --> 01:14:15,093
Magnificent!

1054
01:14:15,201 --> 01:14:18,535
No one would say
how much they hate me.

1055
01:14:23,042 --> 01:14:26,342
See, Stephan, how Vienna
celebrates his birthday.

1056
01:14:29,215 --> 01:14:33,880
Stephan, Stephan,
my life is so wonderful!

1057
01:14:34,020 --> 01:14:37,888
Yes, Countess Marie,
it was a long road.

1058
01:14:42,028 --> 01:14:42,824
It arrived.

1059
01:14:43,496 --> 01:14:45,089
Wait, Stephan, I will.

1060
01:14:52,571 --> 01:14:55,040
- Marshal Duroc.
- Welcome to Schônbrunn, Madame.

1061
01:14:55,141 --> 01:14:58,600
The Emperor sent his carriage.
It will be my pleasure to escort you to the castle.

1062
01:14:59,478 --> 01:15:01,503
Ah... I thought...

1063
01:15:01,580 --> 01:15:04,880
We think Your Majesty better
stay at the castle today.

1064
01:15:05,317 --> 01:15:08,947
- He suffered an attack today.
- Was he injured?

1065
01:15:09,021 --> 01:15:12,184
No, Madame. We arrested the young man
madman entering the palace.

1066
01:15:12,258 --> 01:15:15,057
Did you want to assassinate the Emperor?
Why?

1067
01:15:15,161 --> 01:15:18,961
A revolutionary.
He called the Emperor a tyrant.

1068
01:15:19,699 --> 01:15:21,724
Swore he would try again
given the opportunity.

1069
01:15:22,201 --> 01:15:25,694
His Majesty was very generous.
He offered to spare him if he recanted.

1070
01:15:25,771 --> 01:15:28,297
- Did he accept?
- Not yet. But you must do it.

1071
01:15:29,175 --> 01:15:30,301
I'm ready.

1072
01:15:34,280 --> 01:15:37,306
These were private rooms of the
Austrian Emperor until 4 weeks ago.

1073
01:15:37,416 --> 01:15:40,408
- It was a great victory, wasn't it?
- Without a doubt, Countess.

1074
01:15:59,805 --> 01:16:02,137
Was in danger
and I wasn't around.

1075
01:16:03,709 --> 01:16:07,509
- How good to have you in my arms again!
- Don't let me go.

1076
01:16:13,552 --> 01:16:15,714
This wrinkle is a
little more marked.

1077
01:16:16,088 --> 01:16:18,420
And some gray hair.

1078
01:16:18,491 --> 01:16:22,689
- It's my fortieth birthday.
- You are immortal.

1079
01:16:22,928 --> 01:16:24,259
I'm an old man.

1080
01:16:24,330 --> 01:16:26,799
Are we going to fight now?

1081
01:16:27,399 --> 01:16:31,529
Come. Let me introduce you
to the splendor of the Habsburgs!

1082
01:16:35,841 --> 01:16:37,002
Then?

1083
01:16:37,176 --> 01:16:39,645
Emperor Joseph did not
You seem very happy, don't you?

1084
01:16:40,746 --> 01:16:42,840
Thrones are not
guarantee of happiness.

1085
01:16:43,015 --> 01:16:46,474
Oh, but you...
your throne is yourself

1086
01:16:46,619 --> 01:16:48,587
and the love of the French
who gave it to you.

1087
01:16:49,255 --> 01:16:50,950
Aren't you happy about that?

1088
01:16:51,791 --> 01:16:54,658
I am happy. And you?

1089
01:16:58,297 --> 01:16:59,787
Sit down.

1090
01:17:02,301 --> 01:17:03,996
Don't look at me.

1091
01:17:07,139 --> 01:17:09,836
I will never be unhappy again.

1092
01:17:11,143 --> 01:17:13,237
You have brought me great happiness.

1093
01:17:13,312 --> 01:17:15,007
And I will bring even more.

1094
01:17:16,782 --> 01:17:19,444
- Napoleone.
- Yes, Marie?

1095
01:17:20,486 --> 01:17:24,286
I've been feeling alone,
I love him so much.

1096
01:17:25,057 --> 01:17:29,392
- I came to see her whenever I could.
- I know, I know.

1097
01:17:29,528 --> 01:17:32,691
I should have come more often,
how I wanted.

1098
01:17:32,798 --> 01:17:33,993
I know...

1099
01:17:35,968 --> 01:17:36,935
I...

1100
01:17:39,171 --> 01:17:41,640
But I will never feel alone again.

1101
01:17:41,740 --> 01:17:45,768
I'm not just any man,
I don't have any life...

1102
01:17:46,378 --> 01:17:50,542
I know, my dear... I know.

1103
01:17:51,183 --> 01:17:52,150
Marie...

1104
01:17:56,222 --> 01:17:59,214
I'm determined
to found a dynasty.

1105
01:18:00,159 --> 01:18:01,991
I need to have an heir.

1106
01:18:02,194 --> 01:18:06,563
I decided to marry a princess
of European royal blood.

1107
01:18:13,105 --> 01:18:15,472
I need an ally
who you can trust.

1108
01:18:16,041 --> 01:18:19,306
I can't have all my enemies
on my knees, as I did with Austria,

1109
01:18:19,612 --> 01:18:22,638
just to see them rise again
and fight me again.

1110
01:18:22,748 --> 01:18:24,273
You can continue
like this forever.

1111
01:18:24,450 --> 01:18:29,251
I can conquer your armies
with artillery, but not his hatred.

1112
01:18:30,055 --> 01:18:34,652
Today, in this castle
of the powerful Habsburgs

1113
01:18:34,793 --> 01:18:38,388
I decided to grant them the peace that
I will need to make it prevail more.

1114
01:18:38,898 --> 01:18:41,731
To them I have been a
adventurer, an opportunist.

1115
01:18:41,967 --> 01:18:47,906
I have to become one of yours,
mix my blood with theirs.

1116
01:18:49,942 --> 01:18:51,740
Think...

1117
01:18:52,978 --> 01:18:57,779
A son of Napoleon
born of a Habsburg!

1118
01:18:58,651 --> 01:19:01,484
It's fixed, it's a
fait accompli.

1119
01:19:02,788 --> 01:19:04,882
It's the most sensible decision.

1120
01:19:10,162 --> 01:19:11,186
Marie.

1121
01:19:19,939 --> 01:19:20,963
Marie.

1122
01:19:24,410 --> 01:19:25,935
What did you say?

1123
01:19:27,146 --> 01:19:28,580
Nothing...

1124
01:19:30,516 --> 01:19:31,677
Come in.

1125
01:19:51,337 --> 01:19:52,498
Madam...

1126
01:20:06,185 --> 01:20:07,277
You are dismissed.

1127
01:20:12,558 --> 01:20:14,322
Aren't you going to eat?

1128
01:20:21,967 --> 01:20:23,833
Why don't you say anything?

1129
01:20:26,538 --> 01:20:29,838
If you were in my place,
what would you say?

1130
01:20:30,075 --> 01:20:33,773
I'm not a woman.
I can't put words in your mouth.

1131
01:20:35,214 --> 01:20:37,911
So maybe there are no words.

1132
01:20:38,083 --> 01:20:42,748
Marie, understand, dear.
This doesn't change anything between us.

1133
01:20:43,188 --> 01:20:46,055
I ask you, I beg you
that listen to me.

1134
01:20:46,325 --> 01:20:48,089
This is a state matter.

1135
01:20:48,494 --> 01:20:51,828
It has nothing to do with
what I feel, I love you.

1136
01:20:51,897 --> 01:20:53,831
I always want her close to me.

1137
01:20:53,899 --> 01:20:55,890
I don't even know the princess!

1138
01:20:56,001 --> 01:21:00,700
This fusion of royal blood
It is a necessary necessity.

1139
01:21:01,673 --> 01:21:03,664
Royal blood!

1140
01:21:04,009 --> 01:21:06,842
Weak, cold, anemic.

1141
01:21:07,112 --> 01:21:11,413
A dead house.
And you will live in it! A tomb!

1142
01:21:11,550 --> 01:21:14,850
A wife who hates him
and a family that despises him!

1143
01:21:15,788 --> 01:21:18,314
Do you think they will forget
who defeated them?

1144
01:21:18,757 --> 01:21:21,351
How will they hate him for
invade your family!

1145
01:21:21,427 --> 01:21:22,360
Marie!

1146
01:21:22,895 --> 01:21:24,158
Between!

1147
01:21:26,965 --> 01:21:28,126
Then?

1148
01:21:28,233 --> 01:21:30,895
His Majesty's orders
were fulfilled.

1149
01:21:31,203 --> 01:21:33,001
He doesn't...

1150
01:21:33,105 --> 01:21:35,096
He hasn't recanted, Your Majesty.

1151
01:21:37,142 --> 01:21:38,234
Didn't say anything?

1152
01:21:40,546 --> 01:21:43,641
His last words were:
"Freedom forever!"

1153
01:21:44,650 --> 01:21:46,448
"Death to the tyrant!"

1154
01:21:51,824 --> 01:21:53,019
Imbecile!

1155
01:21:54,893 --> 01:21:56,486
Crazy!

1156
01:21:57,996 --> 01:22:00,863
- This has never happened to me before.
- He deserved it.

1157
01:22:01,733 --> 01:22:03,201
He was a criminal.

1158
01:22:08,507 --> 01:22:11,135
Thank you, Duroc.
Goodnight.

1159
01:22:18,350 --> 01:22:20,876
I did what I could to
save your life.

1160
01:22:21,620 --> 01:22:23,714
It was better for him to die.

1161
01:22:24,756 --> 01:22:27,851
There is a time to dream
It's time to see reality.

1162
01:22:28,026 --> 01:22:31,519
Who doesn't follow
your time deserves to die!

1163
01:22:32,998 --> 01:22:36,957
What happened to you?
What made him change so much?

1164
01:22:37,469 --> 01:22:39,961
What are you doing
with yourself,

1165
01:22:40,038 --> 01:22:42,166
with me, with everyone
who believed in you?

1166
01:22:42,774 --> 01:22:45,038
There is no other child
that you can love

1167
01:22:45,110 --> 01:22:47,738
but one born of blood
that you once despised?

1168
01:22:48,347 --> 01:22:51,146
If you are to take the throne
safely,

1169
01:22:51,483 --> 01:22:54,111
he has to have royal blood.

1170
01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:56,947
If it weren't for that,

1171
01:22:57,289 --> 01:22:59,758
if the circumstances
don't force me,

1172
01:23:00,826 --> 01:23:03,420
you would be my Empress.

1173
01:23:03,662 --> 01:23:08,190
Because it's you, and only
you, who I love.

1174
01:23:15,073 --> 01:23:20,011
If you really loved me,
That love would save your love.

1175
01:23:23,248 --> 01:23:26,684
Politics has no heart.
Just head.

1176
01:23:26,885 --> 01:23:30,412
Remember the days when ideas
Were they stronger than a throne?

1177
01:23:30,856 --> 01:23:32,881
Remember the
French Revolution?

1178
01:23:32,991 --> 01:23:36,291
Revolution, Revolution!
That was a phase of my youth!

1179
01:23:36,695 --> 01:23:39,562
I'm over it!
That's what you don't understand!

1180
01:23:39,665 --> 01:23:43,624
You lied to yourself
and for what he promised the world.

1181
01:23:43,735 --> 01:23:48,104
Lied to everyone who died for you
believing in a new Europe.

1182
01:23:48,740 --> 01:23:53,371
They were betrayed, just like me
and that boy!

1183
01:23:53,545 --> 01:23:58,244
When could he have been generous
dared to just be fair!

1184
01:23:58,350 --> 01:24:01,684
I can't change my entire policy
just to meet your feelings.

1185
01:24:02,287 --> 01:24:04,483
Power has conquered him!

1186
01:24:05,691 --> 01:24:07,523
This is your ilk now.

1187
01:24:07,726 --> 01:24:10,889
These images of the Habsburgs,
merciless and cruel!

1188
01:24:12,364 --> 01:24:14,196
Undead!

1189
01:24:15,067 --> 01:24:17,058
Death on thrones.

1190
01:24:18,437 --> 01:24:20,132
What a shame!

1191
01:24:20,806 --> 01:24:25,676
Europe's liberator
became a son-in-law!

1192
01:24:28,447 --> 01:24:31,041
It's foolish of me to expect a
woman understand me!

1193
01:24:31,116 --> 01:24:34,746
You will see!
Russia will see, England will see!

1194
01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:37,584
Or am I a slave to power...

1195
01:24:37,889 --> 01:24:39,687
or your master!

1196
01:24:41,793 --> 01:24:42,760
Then?

1197
01:24:42,928 --> 01:24:44,953
Why do you look at me like that?

1198
01:24:45,764 --> 01:24:50,895
Because I'm seeing it
for the first and last time.

1199
01:24:50,969 --> 01:24:52,937
This is grotesque!

1200
01:24:54,506 --> 01:24:56,474
Be sensible, Marie.

1201
01:24:57,342 --> 01:25:02,473
Your mind has entered a border
whose region I don't understand.

1202
01:25:03,615 --> 01:25:04,776
Marie.

1203
01:25:04,916 --> 01:25:07,010
Oh, Napoleone...

1204
01:25:07,286 --> 01:25:11,723
I had so much to tell you
that now I can't.

1205
01:25:16,428 --> 01:25:18,556
What am I talking about?

1206
01:25:18,764 --> 01:25:22,064
It was just some silly plans
for next winter.

1207
01:25:23,268 --> 01:25:25,760
Very selfish plans.

1208
01:25:26,705 --> 01:25:28,298
I'm sorry.

1209
01:25:34,646 --> 01:25:35,943
Where are you going?

1210
01:25:38,050 --> 01:25:39,415
Where...

1211
01:26:13,652 --> 01:26:20,183
Alexander, I baptize you,
in the name of the Father, the Son...

1212
01:26:45,684 --> 01:26:49,177
TWO YEARS LATER
DECEMBER 1812

1213
01:26:49,354 --> 01:26:54,815
BEAT IN RETREAT OF THE GREAT ARMY
FROM MOSCOW VIA POLAND

1214
01:27:36,334 --> 01:27:38,996
Wake up, you fool!
You will die if you sleep!

1215
01:27:39,171 --> 01:27:41,265
I want to die!

1216
01:27:43,008 --> 01:27:46,638
- I want to sleep!
- Wake up! Soon we will be in Paris!

1217
01:27:46,912 --> 01:27:49,279
And after Paris, what?

1218
01:27:50,615 --> 01:27:53,983
Do you think the Emperor
Will it give you peace of mind later?

1219
01:27:54,786 --> 01:27:56,550
It will be more hungry,

1220
01:27:57,088 --> 01:27:59,022
more killing,

1221
01:27:59,624 --> 01:28:03,424
more millions of people
dying like flies.

1222
01:28:03,762 --> 01:28:08,632
Again, the same as always,
as long as he lives!

1223
01:28:09,935 --> 01:28:11,403
That Emperor!

1224
01:28:11,470 --> 01:28:13,063
You are delusional, Your Majesty.

1225
01:28:13,939 --> 01:28:16,374
Why don't you join
me, comrade?

1226
01:28:16,508 --> 01:28:19,000
You won't be hungry anymore...

1227
01:28:19,211 --> 01:28:24,581
neither cold nor killing...

1228
01:28:24,883 --> 01:28:28,478
Come on, go ahead...
Your Emperor also wants peace.

1229
01:28:28,653 --> 01:28:32,453
Leave me alone, you fool!

1230
01:28:43,802 --> 01:28:44,928
Your Majesty!

1231
01:28:48,874 --> 01:28:52,367
Sorry, Your Majesty.

1232
01:29:04,589 --> 01:29:08,924
This isn't my fault.
I also have to suffer.

1233
01:29:20,605 --> 01:29:24,303
TWO YEARS LATER
AUGUST 1814

1234
01:29:24,543 --> 01:29:27,069
ELBA ISLAND

1235
01:29:34,352 --> 01:29:36,218
Napoleone!

1236
01:29:37,589 --> 01:29:39,114
Napoleone!

1237
01:29:42,460 --> 01:29:44,053
Napoleone.

1238
01:29:44,596 --> 01:29:46,792
- Oh, mom!
- It's past noon.

1239
01:29:46,898 --> 01:29:50,425
If you stop eating you will complain
again from your stomach.

1240
01:29:51,136 --> 01:29:54,299
Do you think this lens will bring
France closer?

1241
01:29:56,308 --> 01:29:58,140
I was looking at Corsica.

1242
01:29:58,276 --> 01:30:00,745
My France and my Corsica.

1243
01:30:00,812 --> 01:30:03,281
The French love me,
and I love them.

1244
01:30:03,381 --> 01:30:06,316
If they loved him, they wouldn't
would keep him trapped on this island.

1245
01:30:06,985 --> 01:30:08,282
Let's go home.

1246
01:30:08,587 --> 01:30:12,023
It's not the French.
They love me.

1247
01:30:12,257 --> 01:30:14,783
And I have to preserve
this love for my son.

1248
01:30:15,393 --> 01:30:17,987
The Empress knows
how much I want to see him.

1249
01:30:18,396 --> 01:30:24,563
Didn't bring it yesterday, won't bring it today
and he won't do it tomorrow.

1250
01:30:31,676 --> 01:30:33,007
What is it, D'Ornano?

1251
01:30:33,311 --> 01:30:37,145
They saw a flag ship
English heading towards Naples.

1252
01:30:38,083 --> 01:30:41,109
- It's my son! He's here!
- You need to make sure!

1253
01:30:41,186 --> 01:30:44,315
He's my son.
I knew the Empress would bring him!

1254
01:30:57,369 --> 01:30:59,167
Can you see the
Empress, D'Ornano?

1255
01:30:59,371 --> 01:31:01,169
I see a woman with
a child, Your Majesty.

1256
01:31:01,506 --> 01:31:03,600
I can clearly recognize it.

1257
01:31:03,675 --> 01:31:05,336
You have a good view, Your Majesty.

1258
01:31:05,610 --> 01:31:07,874
Seven months ago
I don't see my son!

1259
01:31:22,360 --> 01:31:24,351
- Dismiss the troops.
- Yes sir.

1260
01:31:54,993 --> 01:31:56,154
Madam.

1261
01:31:59,330 --> 01:32:01,424
You are disappointed, Your Majesty.

1262
01:32:01,533 --> 01:32:03,297
I was waiting for my son.

1263
01:32:04,069 --> 01:32:05,901
I brought your son.

1264
01:32:07,338 --> 01:32:08,430
My son?

1265
01:32:08,740 --> 01:32:11,038
Yours and mine.

1266
01:32:13,511 --> 01:32:14,774
Alexander.

1267
01:32:31,796 --> 01:32:33,764
Boy of my heart.

1268
01:32:52,317 --> 01:32:54,308
We arrived at our
destiny, Madame.

1269
01:32:56,755 --> 01:32:59,690
It looks very nice
and welcoming.

1270
01:32:59,758 --> 01:33:02,284
- I hope it fits well.
- Thanks.

1271
01:33:11,503 --> 01:33:13,767
Bianca will take you to the
your chambers, Madame.

1272
01:33:13,838 --> 01:33:15,169
Thanks.

1273
01:33:17,142 --> 01:33:20,976
He took a long trip.
Need to rest.

1274
01:33:21,079 --> 01:33:22,513
Thanks.

1275
01:33:24,616 --> 01:33:26,277
We will have dinner together.

1276
01:33:29,788 --> 01:33:33,122
If you'll excuse me, I need
take care of my mulberry trees.

1277
01:33:34,425 --> 01:33:36,689
We perform miracles with them.

1278
01:33:36,961 --> 01:33:41,330
I have already established a prosperous
trade with Naples.

1279
01:33:42,500 --> 01:33:44,332
I would like you to see them.

1280
01:33:45,670 --> 01:33:47,263
I would love.

1281
01:33:49,340 --> 01:33:52,332
We can produce silk
on a large scale here.

1282
01:33:53,378 --> 01:33:56,541
It will soon be an industry
which will compete with England.

1283
01:33:58,550 --> 01:34:00,143
Until dinner, Madame.

1284
01:34:02,821 --> 01:34:04,414
This way, ma'am.

1285
01:34:11,863 --> 01:34:15,390
First we unpack our bags,
So we do it again...

1286
01:34:15,700 --> 01:34:19,000
So we undo and redo,
and so it goes...

1287
01:34:19,804 --> 01:34:21,738
Where did that man go, Stephan?

1288
01:34:21,806 --> 01:34:25,640
First of all, which man?
Second, how will I know?

1289
01:34:25,710 --> 01:34:28,077
You know, man
of the big hat.

1290
01:34:28,346 --> 01:34:31,338
Come wash your hands, Alexandre.

1291
01:34:31,416 --> 01:34:33,942
So far this is the worst
everyone's place.

1292
01:34:35,053 --> 01:34:38,887
I've seen bigger hats
and I didn't even care.

1293
01:34:40,558 --> 01:34:42,253
Are we going to live here?

1294
01:34:44,395 --> 01:34:46,329
I don't know, Alexander.

1295
01:34:46,531 --> 01:34:48,659
We have our own house.

1296
01:34:51,069 --> 01:34:52,503
Can I come in?

1297
01:34:53,738 --> 01:34:56,673
Please, Your Highness.
Stephan...

1298
01:35:00,411 --> 01:35:01,936
Come closer, my son.

1299
01:35:07,919 --> 01:35:09,216
What is it called?

1300
01:35:10,121 --> 01:35:13,648
- Alexandre Florian Joseph...
- Walewski.

1301
01:35:14,926 --> 01:35:16,189
Between.

1302
01:35:17,428 --> 01:35:21,387
With Your Majesty's compliments,
Can I take the boy to him?

1303
01:35:21,532 --> 01:35:23,000
Go with Bianca.

1304
01:35:23,134 --> 01:35:27,071
- Alexandre, will you give me a kiss?
- Yes, ma'am.

1305
01:35:30,441 --> 01:35:31,772
Thank you, Alexander.

1306
01:35:35,046 --> 01:35:36,844
Any news about her?

1307
01:35:36,915 --> 01:35:39,441
I'm a stranger
in Her Majesty's circles.

1308
01:35:39,550 --> 01:35:43,077
You know she's an unfaithful wife.
A disloyal woman.

1309
01:35:43,154 --> 01:35:47,421
Even her son she neglects.
The whole world knows.

1310
01:35:48,126 --> 01:35:51,323
- Does he know?
- Sometimes I feel tempted to tell.

1311
01:35:52,397 --> 01:35:54,263
What good would it do us to hurt him?

1312
01:35:58,436 --> 01:36:00,598
I'm glad you're here.

1313
01:36:01,005 --> 01:36:03,440
I expected our
visit would please you.

1314
01:36:04,776 --> 01:36:07,302
But I think he was disappointed.

1315
01:36:07,412 --> 01:36:11,906
You're wrong. Maybe with you
and the son will be happy.

1316
01:36:12,517 --> 01:36:15,145
Everything I want
is to bring you peace.

1317
01:36:20,191 --> 01:36:21,488
Who's coming there?

1318
01:36:31,369 --> 01:36:32,632
Lejeune!

1319
01:36:41,379 --> 01:36:42,369
So, Lejeune?

1320
01:36:42,480 --> 01:36:44,915
Gérard committed suicide
so as not to be arrested, Your Majesty.

1321
01:36:44,983 --> 01:36:46,417
Destroyed the message.

1322
01:36:48,319 --> 01:36:50,981
- Where did it happen?
- In Saint-Tropez, Your Majesty.

1323
01:36:57,328 --> 01:36:59,456
Gerard too.

1324
01:37:04,902 --> 01:37:06,495
We'll try again.

1325
01:37:07,038 --> 01:37:11,999
The Allies are watching.
Both Italy and France... and Elba.

1326
01:37:14,379 --> 01:37:15,972
We'll try again!

1327
01:37:16,881 --> 01:37:18,645
Look at Alexandre, Napoleone!

1328
01:37:18,850 --> 01:37:22,286
Don't take your eyes off you!

1329
01:37:23,021 --> 01:37:25,046
What do you like most
to do, Alexandre?

1330
01:37:25,156 --> 01:37:27,625
- I like riding my pony.
- And what else?

1331
01:37:28,026 --> 01:37:30,461
I like listening to Stephan
telling stories.

1332
01:37:31,429 --> 01:37:35,696
- What kind of stories?
- Of soldiers you err.

1333
01:37:35,900 --> 01:37:40,064
I also liked stories
of soldiers and kings!

1334
01:37:40,371 --> 01:37:42,203
Let's be great friends.

1335
01:37:42,507 --> 01:37:44,805
- Do you know stories, sir?
- Yes.

1336
01:37:44,876 --> 01:37:47,243
- From soldiers?
- Yes.

1337
01:37:47,345 --> 01:37:48,813
And of kings?

1338
01:37:50,748 --> 01:37:52,944
Yes, my son, I know.

1339
01:37:53,084 --> 01:37:54,552
Can you tell me some?

1340
01:37:55,920 --> 01:37:58,355
One day I will tell you a...

1341
01:37:59,957 --> 01:38:01,254
when you have finished.

1342
01:38:01,359 --> 01:38:02,793
When will it end?

1343
01:38:04,562 --> 01:38:06,360
Eat, Alexander.

1344
01:38:07,365 --> 01:38:09,163
You too, son.

1345
01:38:09,367 --> 01:38:11,734
Alexandre is getting sleepy.

1346
01:38:11,803 --> 01:38:15,797
It's past your time.
May I take you to your room, Your Majesty?

1347
01:38:15,907 --> 01:38:18,342
- Of course, Madame.
- Say good night, Alexandre.

1348
01:38:21,879 --> 01:38:24,849
- Good evening, madam.
- Good night, my son.

1349
01:38:28,786 --> 01:38:31,312
Good evening, sir.
Don't forget my story.

1350
01:38:31,489 --> 01:38:34,356
I will remember because
especially from you.

1351
01:38:36,594 --> 01:38:38,392
- Goodnight.
- Good evening, sir.

1352
01:38:43,835 --> 01:38:47,465
- Did you know that an insect makes silk?
- And even?

1353
01:38:47,572 --> 01:38:50,064
And they only live in mulberry trees.

1354
01:38:50,274 --> 01:38:51,935
How interesting.

1355
01:38:53,444 --> 01:38:55,071
Now your prayers.

1356
01:38:58,116 --> 01:39:03,611
Our Father who art in heaven,
to whom I give my heart,

1357
01:39:04,021 --> 01:39:08,390
bless my mother and my father,
that I've never seen.

1358
01:39:08,526 --> 01:39:13,157
Help him to be good,
Protect him from evil and bring him peace.

1359
01:39:13,297 --> 01:39:17,063
Mom, I liked that man.
He wears such a big hat.

1360
01:39:17,135 --> 01:39:19,126
Finish your prayer, Alexandre.

1361
01:39:19,537 --> 01:39:24,532
Make me worthy of him. Bless Stephan
and Uncle Paul, amen!

1362
01:39:24,675 --> 01:39:26,871
Why does he wear a hat
so big?

1363
01:39:27,278 --> 01:39:28,905
Come on, sleep.

1364
01:39:30,648 --> 01:39:33,015
- Good night, mom.
- Goodnight.

1365
01:40:00,811 --> 01:40:03,303
I will love the storms of Elba,

1366
01:40:03,514 --> 01:40:08,475
just like the people,
the sea and the sunny village.

1367
01:40:10,421 --> 01:40:16,258
It will be so good to be near you,
just you, your mother and Alexandre.

1368
01:40:16,694 --> 01:40:18,890
It's everything I ever wanted.

1369
01:40:19,263 --> 01:40:22,255
Until this the world
out there would deny me.

1370
01:40:22,867 --> 01:40:27,703
The world outside doesn't know
that I'm here. Nobody knows.

1371
01:40:31,042 --> 01:40:32,373
Nobody?

1372
01:40:32,610 --> 01:40:34,078
No soul.

1373
01:40:40,117 --> 01:40:42,643
Marie, this was God's work!

1374
01:40:43,955 --> 01:40:45,423
Can you help me!

1375
01:40:45,790 --> 01:40:47,121
Help how?

1376
01:40:47,225 --> 01:40:50,559
I need to send a message
to the Count of Montholon.

1377
01:40:51,095 --> 01:40:54,554
I can't trust anyone.
I'm being watched.

1378
01:40:56,033 --> 01:40:57,398
Will you come back?

1379
01:40:57,468 --> 01:41:00,631
They think I'll stay here
rotting on this island?

1380
01:41:00,938 --> 01:41:04,135
Those Austrians think
that will keep me here forever?

1381
01:41:04,642 --> 01:41:05,768
I will return to France!

1382
01:41:05,876 --> 01:41:08,846
The world will leave you alone
if you let me.

1383
01:41:09,313 --> 01:41:12,476
- What else can you do?
- I can fix all my mistakes.

1384
01:41:12,583 --> 01:41:15,712
I will honor my ideas.
They will be rescued.

1385
01:41:15,786 --> 01:41:18,118
Do you remember, Marie?
I will make them come true!

1386
01:41:18,222 --> 01:41:20,054
If you love me, help me!

1387
01:41:20,124 --> 01:41:23,924
It's because I love you that I beg
that it is not destroyed.

1388
01:41:24,629 --> 01:41:28,725
Listen to me, Napoleone!
He's fought too many wars.

1389
01:41:28,799 --> 01:41:31,598
Too many men have died,
too much hope!

1390
01:41:32,336 --> 01:41:36,432
France is tired.
Let her rest! You love her.

1391
01:41:45,349 --> 01:41:47,147
What do you expect me to do?

1392
01:41:47,685 --> 01:41:51,053
Lower your head and allow
continue to punish me forever?

1393
01:41:51,155 --> 01:41:54,591
Here there is peace and you can
find happiness.

1394
01:41:55,293 --> 01:41:58,627
He always believed in his destiny.
He brought him here.

1395
01:41:58,829 --> 01:42:01,764
Believe him now.
Be at peace with him.

1396
01:42:03,267 --> 01:42:05,964
Peace comes so soon...
with death!

1397
01:42:06,771 --> 01:42:10,207
Think about it before ordering
let another man die for you.

1398
01:42:10,608 --> 01:42:13,873
Death is despicable.
I've faced it thousands of times.

1399
01:42:14,111 --> 01:42:15,943
It's the life we ​​have to face!
I have to go back!

1400
01:42:16,013 --> 01:42:18,675
- You have to take the message to me.
- It's too late!

1401
01:42:19,350 --> 01:42:21,785
The whole of Europe will have time
to arm themselves against you.

1402
01:42:21,852 --> 01:42:23,342
It's not too late!

1403
01:42:23,487 --> 01:42:27,117
There is no shortage of evidence that the army
You are still faithful to me, your Emperor!

1404
01:42:27,224 --> 01:42:30,524
Marie, believe me.
This time we will succeed.

1405
01:42:30,628 --> 01:42:32,563
But the world is against you!

1406
01:42:32,563 --> 01:42:34,759
No! I'm not Emperor
only from soldiers!

1407
01:42:34,865 --> 01:42:37,357
I am Emperor of workers
and peasants.

1408
01:42:37,501 --> 01:42:38,991
We have strong bonds in common.

1409
01:42:39,070 --> 01:42:41,368
They no longer exist.
They will disown him!

1410
01:42:41,472 --> 01:42:44,271
They'll remember when they see me!
They will believe in me again!

1411
01:42:44,375 --> 01:42:47,140
I won't be able to persuade him.
Your arguments are very strong.

1412
01:42:47,211 --> 01:42:49,305
All I can do is try to protect him
with my love.

1413
01:42:49,380 --> 01:42:51,872
But I know, I know that
it's too late!

1414
01:42:52,016 --> 01:42:54,041
It's not too late!
Not yet.

1415
01:42:54,385 --> 01:42:57,082
Think! Think!
I'm going to Paris!

1416
01:43:02,593 --> 01:43:05,255
I need to be faithful to those who died.
They believed in me!

1417
01:43:05,763 --> 01:43:09,131
They will march with me in the name of freedom
with their torches lit!

1418
01:43:09,400 --> 01:43:11,198
I will light up the world again!

1419
01:43:11,268 --> 01:43:14,033
Prussia, Austria, even England!

1420
01:43:15,673 --> 01:43:19,769
Marie, you have to
help me! You must!

1421
01:43:26,350 --> 01:43:28,148
Give me the message.

1422
01:43:54,478 --> 01:43:56,810
Gentlemen, France
awaits us.

1423
01:43:56,914 --> 01:44:00,547
We will be in Flanders before
for England to mobilize.

1424
01:44:18,335 --> 01:44:20,997
We will destroy our
enemies one by one.

1425
01:44:21,338 --> 01:44:25,368
The time has come to restore
the glory of the Empire forever!

1426
01:44:37,121 --> 01:44:39,089
ONE MONTH AFTER WATERLOO

1427
01:44:39,290 --> 01:44:41,281
JULY 1815

1428
01:44:41,425 --> 01:44:44,554
ROCHEFORT PORT
FRANCE

1429
01:45:04,482 --> 01:45:05,574
Your Majesty.

1430
01:45:06,650 --> 01:45:08,414
A messenger from the English.

1431
01:45:09,687 --> 01:45:12,679
Captain Maitland greets him.
If you have already said goodbye to everyone,

1432
01:45:12,790 --> 01:45:15,383
asks you to board the Bellerophon
as soon as you can.

1433
01:45:15,459 --> 01:45:17,223
He wants to leave at high tide.

1434
01:45:17,661 --> 01:45:19,425
I've already said goodbye to everyone.

1435
01:45:20,064 --> 01:45:25,002
I only have one thing left to take care of.
Can you wait for me outside, gentlemen?

1436
01:45:38,215 --> 01:45:40,047
Your Imperial Majesty

1437
01:45:55,199 --> 01:45:56,462
Who is it?

1438
01:45:56,734 --> 01:45:58,930
- D'Ornano, Your Majesty.
- You can come in.

1439
01:46:02,673 --> 01:46:03,834
Marie!

1440
01:46:09,680 --> 01:46:11,705
This is against my orders.

1441
01:46:16,253 --> 01:46:19,746
My dear, I wanted
spare her from that.

1442
01:46:20,391 --> 01:46:22,086
So you don't know me.

1443
01:46:22,459 --> 01:46:25,451
Napoleone, I came to help you escape.

1444
01:46:25,563 --> 01:46:28,931
Run away to where?
Even France denies me.

1445
01:46:29,033 --> 01:46:31,525
There is a ship in Bordeaux.
He's leaving for America.

1446
01:46:31,602 --> 01:46:35,202
Will I run away?
I've never done this before.

1447
01:46:35,773 --> 01:46:36,706
What is that?

1448
01:46:37,074 --> 01:46:39,270
Clothes to disguise yourself.

1449
01:46:39,743 --> 01:46:41,211
Women's clothes?

1450
01:46:42,947 --> 01:46:46,440
I said I was accompanied.
It can be at the bottom of the carriage.

1451
01:46:46,550 --> 01:46:47,881
I'll say he's sick.

1452
01:46:47,952 --> 01:46:53,982
Ah, Marie, a great tragedy
it turns into comedy as soon as we sit down.

1453
01:46:54,491 --> 01:46:59,362
Suppose I wear this ridiculous thing
over my soldier boots.

1454
01:46:59,430 --> 01:47:02,923
Suppose you arrive at the ship
and to America.

1455
01:47:03,100 --> 01:47:04,431
And then?

1456
01:47:04,501 --> 01:47:06,492
He would be alive, safe.

1457
01:47:06,971 --> 01:47:11,169
No, my dear.
I still need to follow my destiny.

1458
01:47:11,308 --> 01:47:13,640
But why do you want to give yourself up?
to the English?

1459
01:47:13,777 --> 01:47:17,304
You know how they hate him.
They will kill you, Napoleone.

1460
01:47:17,781 --> 01:47:20,876
And make me a martyr?
Oh, no...

1461
01:47:21,085 --> 01:47:23,850
They will keep me very much alive.

1462
01:47:23,921 --> 01:47:28,392
They need to remove any trace
of greatness from me before I die.

1463
01:47:28,959 --> 01:47:32,657
Europe's young people cannot
have heroes to idolize.

1464
01:47:35,132 --> 01:47:36,600
Marie, I have to go.

1465
01:47:36,967 --> 01:47:38,230
I'll go with you.

1466
01:47:38,769 --> 01:47:41,238
Death and exile
must be faced alone.

1467
01:47:41,705 --> 01:47:44,299
Where am I going would mean
his death too.

1468
01:47:44,375 --> 01:47:46,309
I would die next to you.

1469
01:47:46,477 --> 01:47:50,572
Ah, Marie, this love of yours...

1470
01:47:50,981 --> 01:47:53,814
Why hasn't he doubled yet?
my heart?

1471
01:47:54,018 --> 01:47:57,511
Not even steel could have resisted your love,
but I resisted.

1472
01:47:58,355 --> 01:48:01,552
And now that everything is lost,
I feel it invade me.

1473
01:48:03,394 --> 01:48:05,988
We will never be apart again.

1474
01:48:10,234 --> 01:48:13,898
No... I was delirious just thinking about it
to take her with me.

1475
01:48:14,371 --> 01:48:16,131
I can't, I shouldn't.

1476
01:48:17,241 --> 01:48:19,107
You are too delicate, Marie.

1477
01:48:19,209 --> 01:48:23,146
One day I will be able to see mercy in those eyes.
What will I do then?

1478
01:48:24,548 --> 01:48:27,210
What I feel now will last
for the rest of my life.

1479
01:48:27,751 --> 01:48:31,949
This look will light up the whole
the darkness that awaits me.

1480
01:48:34,425 --> 01:48:40,455
Goodbye, Marie.
You gave so much, for so little.

1481
01:48:42,700 --> 01:48:47,001
You gave me so much more than love,
Napoleon Bonaparte.

1482
01:48:48,205 --> 01:48:50,537
It touched me and gave me life.

1483
01:48:51,108 --> 01:48:54,408
You lifted me and the whole world
lost importance...

1484
01:48:55,279 --> 01:48:58,738
I will never have again
this world back.

1485
01:49:02,386 --> 01:49:04,821
Goodbye, my love...

1486
01:49:07,891 --> 01:49:09,916
Now I want
say goodbye to my son.

1487
01:49:27,578 --> 01:49:30,047
He only knows him
as your Emperor.

1488
01:49:32,049 --> 01:49:33,312
Alexander.

1489
01:49:38,322 --> 01:49:41,451
- Come here, young man.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

1490
01:49:46,597 --> 01:49:49,396
I'm leaving and I want
give him some orders.

1491
01:49:49,633 --> 01:49:51,226
Yes, Your Majesty.

1492
01:49:51,435 --> 01:49:54,302
I will leave Countess Walewska
in your care.

1493
01:49:54,772 --> 01:49:59,073
- Take good care of her for the rest of her life.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

1494
01:49:59,143 --> 01:50:01,840
- Do you have a sword?
- No, Your Majesty.

1495
01:50:03,413 --> 01:50:06,781
This one I used
when I conquered Italy.

1496
01:50:06,984 --> 01:50:09,976
He was only twenty years old
than you now.

1497
01:50:10,921 --> 01:50:12,946
Please, Your Majesty.

1498
01:50:14,758 --> 01:50:18,626
Yes. Maybe he will live
in a better world.

1499
01:50:19,663 --> 01:50:21,427
Instead, you
I'll give you a kiss.

1500
01:50:36,647 --> 01:50:38,342
Where did he go, mom?

1501
01:50:41,451 --> 01:50:42,816
To that ship.

1502
01:50:52,062 --> 01:50:53,427
And then?

1503
01:50:54,398 --> 01:50:57,698
Don't talk, Alexandre, not now.

1504
01:51:09,246 --> 01:51:11,908
He has a star
that you need to follow.

1505
01:51:12,316 --> 01:51:15,149
Let us pray that it brings you peace.

1506
01:51:31,368 --> 01:51:38,741
END
