1
00:00:58,534 --> 00:01:01,570
I'm trying to remember him. 

2
00:01:02,663 --> 00:01:04,739
John. 

3
00:01:07,751 --> 00:01:11,500
I need to
to tell you about him. About us. 

4
00:01:13,215 --> 00:01:16,667
Why we did those things 
we did. 

5
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,577
My beloved children. You know
not me, but I am your mother. 

6
00:01:45,707 --> 00:01:48,376
Maybe you never forgave me. 

7
00:01:48,584 --> 00:01:52,452
Maybe you hate me. 
I hope not. 

8
00:01:54,090 --> 00:01:57,791
I know now that I never
will see you again. 

9
00:01:58,011 --> 00:02:03,385
That is why I write to tell
tell you the truth before it's too late. 

10
00:02:17,197 --> 00:02:21,111
I was married off to your father, 
King Christian 7. , -

11
00:02:21,326 --> 00:02:24,576
- before I even
had met him. 

12
00:02:24,788 --> 00:02:30,079
I had never left England, 
but was now Queen of Denmark. 

13
00:02:30,294 --> 00:02:33,330
A new life, a new language. 

14
00:02:33,547 --> 00:02:35,623
Good day.

15
00:02:38,010 --> 00:02:41,213
Shall we go for a walk in the park?

16
00:02:42,556 --> 00:02:47,977
I had prepared for this one
day since I was a little girl. 

17
00:02:48,187 --> 00:02:52,564
- Hurry up, the wagons have arrived.
- He must have one of each.

18
00:02:52,775 --> 00:02:55,692
To be queen
in an exotic country. 

19
00:02:55,903 --> 00:02:59,604
To love and honor my husband
unconditionally. 

20
00:03:01,617 --> 00:03:06,493
Christian was charming, 
interested in art and literature -

21
00:03:06,706 --> 00:03:12,293
- and liked acting.
He was a perfect husband. 

22
00:03:13,296 --> 00:03:18,290
What if he doesn't like me?
What if they don't like me?

23
00:03:18,509 --> 00:03:21,510
Come here. Come and see.

24
00:03:23,431 --> 00:03:26,385
I want to tell you a secret.

25
00:03:27,227 --> 00:03:32,767
If you can get the king to visit
your bedroom on the first night, -

26
00:03:32,983 --> 00:03:36,398
- you will be perceived
as a great success.

27
00:03:39,656 --> 00:03:41,696
Is it true?

28
00:03:46,496 --> 00:03:49,331
I know you will make me proud.

29
00:04:45,014 --> 00:04:49,510
Your Majesty. Louise von Plessen,
Their new court mistress.

30
00:04:49,727 --> 00:04:53,061
It's Reventlow,
His Majesty's tutor.

31
00:04:53,273 --> 00:04:56,227
Welcome, Your Majesty.

32
00:04:56,443 --> 00:04:59,562
Could you imagine
to meet the king?

33
00:06:03,469 --> 00:06:05,509
The queen.

34
00:06:10,226 --> 00:06:12,302
Your Majesty.

35
00:07:56,167 --> 00:07:58,705
Gourmand, old boy.
were you there

36
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,829
were you there

37
00:08:01,047 --> 00:08:03,621
were you there
Have you missed dad?

38
00:08:03,842 --> 00:08:06,594
Did you miss dad, huh?

39
00:08:25,739 --> 00:08:29,191
Your Royal Highness,
concentrate.

40
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,240
Why? I never get to
to use it for something.

41
00:08:53,142 --> 00:08:57,354
- When will I see Christian again?
- His Majesty comes to the table.

42
00:08:57,563 --> 00:09:00,350
Do you know where all my books are?

43
00:09:00,566 --> 00:09:05,608
The court is reviewing them.
Some of them will probably be sent back.

44
00:09:07,490 --> 00:09:08,949
Why?

45
00:09:09,158 --> 00:09:12,907
A part of your books is
under censorship in Denmark.

46
00:09:15,790 --> 00:09:17,996
Excuse me.

47
00:09:19,085 --> 00:09:21,291
I didn't know that.

48
00:09:21,504 --> 00:09:25,584
I'll probably come up with something else,
They can read in.

49
00:09:31,723 --> 00:09:35,673
Minister Bernstorff.
He has absolute power in the castle.

50
00:09:35,894 --> 00:09:37,803
Minister Warberg.

51
00:09:38,021 --> 00:09:42,813
Stay far away from him.
He has a very distinct smell.

52
00:09:57,332 --> 00:10:02,041
- It must be Christian's stepmother.
- Queen Dowager Juliane Marie.

53
00:10:02,254 --> 00:10:05,457
And the Majesty's half-brother,
the crown prince.

54
00:10:05,674 --> 00:10:09,174
She and her son are
not popular among the people.

55
00:10:09,386 --> 00:10:11,877
Why not?

56
00:10:12,097 --> 00:10:17,174
Because His Majesty never has
considered them part of the family.

57
00:10:17,394 --> 00:10:21,973
The Danish people have always had
a strange nose for that kind of thing.

58
00:10:39,667 --> 00:10:42,585
I think you were so far gone.

59
00:10:45,506 --> 00:10:49,456
They have dramatic flair,
dear queen.

60
00:10:49,677 --> 00:10:53,461
You come and visit me
after tonight's program?

61
00:11:07,737 --> 00:11:10,193
"Come on. Let's go to the prison.

62
00:11:10,407 --> 00:11:15,069
The two of us will sing there
like birds in our cage. "

63
00:11:52,325 --> 00:11:56,903
She is adorable.
And so talented.

64
00:11:57,121 --> 00:11:59,197
Yes. Thanks.

65
00:11:59,415 --> 00:12:02,202
The nobles are smitten with her.

66
00:12:02,418 --> 00:12:06,796
- They think she is badly needed.
- Why that?

67
00:12:07,006 --> 00:12:12,677
I have heard several people talk about her
exactly what Denmark needed.

68
00:12:12,887 --> 00:12:16,588
A gifted, artistic soul
on the throne.

69
00:12:39,706 --> 00:12:43,075
Yes, thank you, I think so
we've had enough!

70
00:12:46,254 --> 00:12:47,998
What?

71
00:12:48,215 --> 00:12:50,042
What?

72
00:12:50,259 --> 00:12:53,710
I get a headache
of the unbearable noise!

73
00:12:56,890 --> 00:12:58,682
Come now.

74
00:12:58,892 --> 00:13:03,139
Take your small, fat leather basses
and sit down.

75
00:13:03,355 --> 00:13:05,431
Come now!

76
00:13:31,384 --> 00:13:34,835
The king is here to visit
the queen as agreed.

77
00:13:35,054 --> 00:13:37,426
It will probably work.

78
00:13:59,913 --> 00:14:01,372
Yes...

79
00:14:27,858 --> 00:14:29,732
Yes...

80
00:14:36,242 --> 00:14:38,115
Yes.

81
00:15:10,652 --> 00:15:12,893
Excuse me.

82
00:15:22,664 --> 00:15:25,499
You must not steal my light.

83
00:15:29,546 --> 00:15:31,788
What do you mean?

84
00:15:34,759 --> 00:15:37,796
Take off your clothes and lie down.

85
00:16:04,665 --> 00:16:07,868
“How much I
have sweated and toiled... 

86
00:16:09,044 --> 00:16:13,374
... and yet the least
nothing done. "

87
00:16:13,591 --> 00:16:18,217
Wish I had the strength to
to forgive Christian his behavior.

88
00:16:18,429 --> 00:16:22,130
“Someone to hinder
people out in the fear of God.

89
00:16:24,018 --> 00:16:25,643
So... "

90
00:16:25,853 --> 00:16:29,471
But I was too young to understand, 
how sick he was. 

91
00:16:31,734 --> 00:16:37,903
I could only think that I
was going to spend my life with him. 

92
00:16:41,286 --> 00:16:44,405
I started to hate him for it. 

93
00:16:52,005 --> 00:16:55,872
Seen from the outside, I came soon
in happy circumstances. 

94
00:16:56,092 --> 00:16:59,177
You were on your way, Frederik. 

95
00:17:00,180 --> 00:17:03,715
The king wants to visit
the queen's chambers.

96
00:17:03,934 --> 00:17:07,219
We have just started
with another game of chess.

97
00:17:07,437 --> 00:17:10,806
It is several times a week.
What does she imagine?

98
00:17:11,024 --> 00:17:13,729
When I had
fulfilled my duty, -

99
00:17:13,944 --> 00:17:17,064
- I see no reason to
to maintain the facade. 

100
00:17:19,116 --> 00:17:22,070
It ended up costing me dearly. 

101
00:17:26,373 --> 00:17:28,282
Christian, stop!

102
00:17:28,500 --> 00:17:32,166
I never want to see
your ugly face again! Do you hear?

103
00:17:32,379 --> 00:17:35,250
You're fired, you cow!

104
00:17:57,029 --> 00:17:59,271
Look, look. Calm down now.

105
00:17:59,490 --> 00:18:03,358
A true queen gives birth
with silence and dignity.

106
00:18:13,713 --> 00:18:16,667
Yes... Shh...

107
00:18:21,596 --> 00:18:24,004
He has a stomach ache.

108
00:18:26,309 --> 00:18:29,263
I am planning a trip
around Europe.

109
00:18:29,479 --> 00:18:32,266
I've been gone for at least a year, maybe two.

110
00:18:32,482 --> 00:18:36,895
Do you think it has any significance
for me, whether you are here or not?

111
00:18:39,990 --> 00:18:42,907
This was my life. 

112
00:18:43,118 --> 00:18:45,158
My destiny. 

113
00:18:45,370 --> 00:18:48,490
I had accepted it.

114
00:18:48,707 --> 00:18:53,120
Or rather... it could
very well have been my life. 

115
00:18:58,801 --> 00:19:02,170
you know
where can i find the hospital?

116
00:19:03,430 --> 00:19:05,222
Thank you very much.

117
00:19:12,189 --> 00:19:15,309
sorry,
is Doctor Struensee here?

118
00:19:19,864 --> 00:19:22,734
- Johann Struensee?
- Who is asking?

119
00:19:22,950 --> 00:19:28,786
Count Rantzau asks you to
to come and see him at once.

120
00:19:28,998 --> 00:19:33,078
Count Rantzau? You are sure of
Do you have the right Struensee?

121
00:19:33,294 --> 00:19:38,289
- I shouldn't come without you.
- A count who calls. Get off.

122
00:19:39,717 --> 00:19:43,798
Should I leave my bleeding patient?
for a count?

123
00:19:44,013 --> 00:19:48,058
It may be that he pays. It is
more than can be said about them here.

124
00:19:49,561 --> 00:19:54,982
- What the hell is wrong?
- Will you hold it up for a moment?

125
00:20:03,033 --> 00:20:06,449
You're a bit of a mystery,
Struensee.

126
00:20:06,661 --> 00:20:11,240
Your father is one of the most conservative
priests throughout Germany.

127
00:20:11,458 --> 00:20:15,207
Still you press
provocative tributes -

128
00:20:15,420 --> 00:20:18,671
- to the revolutionaries
French thinkers.

129
00:20:18,882 --> 00:20:23,260
Had you not written them anonymously,
you were screwed.

130
00:20:29,435 --> 00:20:32,969
Well written.
Very Voltaire-inspired.

131
00:20:33,188 --> 00:20:37,020
Calm down now.
We won't hurt you.

132
00:20:39,403 --> 00:20:42,523
It is completely normal wear and tear.

133
00:20:42,740 --> 00:20:47,117
But I'm sure, the young women
in your circle of friends are satisfied.

134
00:20:47,328 --> 00:20:49,866
- Shut up.
- I like him.

135
00:20:50,081 --> 00:20:54,161
- Am I done here?
- Struensee, do you want to change positions?

136
00:20:55,795 --> 00:20:59,378
- What kind of position is it?
- The king's physician.

137
00:21:02,969 --> 00:21:07,512
Brandt and me have been
up at the top of the Danish court.

138
00:21:07,724 --> 00:21:13,809
All the way up and sniffing between the legs
on the most chaste minister's wives.

139
00:21:14,022 --> 00:21:18,850
When King Frederik died,
then Bernstorff did a cleansing.

140
00:21:19,069 --> 00:21:21,642
So we ended up in the world's arsehole.

141
00:21:21,863 --> 00:21:28,281
- Yes, sorry.
- We really miss life at court.

142
00:21:28,495 --> 00:21:34,118
The king is in Hamburg now. He is in
in full swing with his big European trip.

143
00:21:34,334 --> 00:21:37,869
But they are stuck.
He is too ill to continue.

144
00:21:39,715 --> 00:21:42,466
What is he doing wrong?

145
00:21:46,972 --> 00:21:51,385
Now the court has come up with the brilliant idea
to find a personal life doctor, -

146
00:21:51,602 --> 00:21:55,350
- who will take care of the king
on the rest of the trip.

147
00:21:58,275 --> 00:22:03,436
So now we want to see if we can get your name
on the list of candidates.

148
00:22:05,366 --> 00:22:08,901
You should
borrow a set of clothes first.

149
00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:12,453
I will never come
in the vicinity of the king.

150
00:22:12,665 --> 00:22:16,116
- Why not?
- I am an ordinary city dweller.

151
00:22:16,335 --> 00:22:20,119
And as you two found out,
so I am an information man.

152
00:22:20,339 --> 00:22:23,874
- I guess we are, too.
- I am. Rantzau just thinks so.

153
00:22:24,093 --> 00:22:28,755
We don't talk about it at court.
Just talk about your priest.

154
00:22:28,973 --> 00:22:31,725
The court loves that kind of shit.

155
00:22:33,728 --> 00:22:38,189
And now if I got the position,
which is totally unlikely?

156
00:22:38,399 --> 00:22:43,358
Then you use your position to get
me and Brandt back in the inner circle.

157
00:22:49,953 --> 00:22:55,160
What does a personal life doctor do?
Is he blowing his nose at the king or... ?

158
00:22:55,375 --> 00:23:00,084
Licking his feet, wiping his ass.
This is the king we are talking about.

159
00:23:56,646 --> 00:23:59,053
No! No!

160
00:23:59,273 --> 00:24:01,811
I don't want to!

161
00:24:10,243 --> 00:24:12,699
Johann Struensee?

162
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:23,290
They may have heard,
that the king is a bit capricious.

163
00:24:23,506 --> 00:24:28,299
- Only rumours. Do you have a theory?
- He was very difficult as a child.

164
00:24:28,512 --> 00:24:34,135
Most of his problems stem
from an excessive penchant for masturbation.

165
00:24:35,852 --> 00:24:38,094
Yes, beware.

166
00:24:52,202 --> 00:24:56,948
- Your Majesty, my name is...
- I don't need any doctor.

167
00:24:59,919 --> 00:25:03,169
The court believes
They need a doctor.

168
00:25:05,591 --> 00:25:08,462
Do you have any idea why?

169
00:25:09,553 --> 00:25:11,961
I like to drink.

170
00:25:12,181 --> 00:25:17,341
I like whores with big
breasts and I like to fight.

171
00:25:19,605 --> 00:25:21,728
What's wrong with that?

172
00:25:23,484 --> 00:25:25,809
I am king!

173
00:25:41,669 --> 00:25:45,963
What if you weren't king?
What would make you happy?

174
00:25:50,053 --> 00:25:53,718
"To sleep and if possible to dream."

175
00:25:58,728 --> 00:26:03,556
"Hope often fails, and soon there
where most fulfillment can seem when. "

176
00:26:09,323 --> 00:26:14,317
“The world is a stage, and everyone
men and women are only actors. "

177
00:26:16,955 --> 00:26:21,083
"Each comes and goes,
when his time is.

178
00:26:21,293 --> 00:26:24,543
And each has
many roles to play. "

179
00:26:27,466 --> 00:26:31,464
“What a work of art
is not man?"

180
00:26:31,679 --> 00:26:36,969
- "There is something rotten in Denmark."
- I don't like it. Take another.

181
00:26:37,184 --> 00:26:39,177
Come on!

182
00:26:41,313 --> 00:26:43,187
A horse...

183
00:26:43,399 --> 00:26:46,400
"My kingdom for a horse."

184
00:26:46,611 --> 00:26:50,560
"Our life is woven from a motley thread,
mixed with good and bad. "

185
00:27:02,293 --> 00:27:05,247
Confusion has arisen about, -

186
00:27:05,463 --> 00:27:08,879
- where and when
the French tenor must sing.

187
00:27:09,092 --> 00:27:14,169
In the dining room after dessert.
But wait until the service is carried out.

188
00:27:14,389 --> 00:27:17,473
- Are you ready at the square?
- In a moment.

189
00:27:17,684 --> 00:27:20,471
Then we call on you and the ministers.

190
00:27:20,687 --> 00:27:23,474
That was all, Your Majesty.

191
00:27:23,690 --> 00:27:26,146
Court Marshal...

192
00:27:27,652 --> 00:27:30,653
- Do you remember Gourmand?
- The dog.

193
00:27:30,864 --> 00:27:34,198
Of course, Your Majesty. And thank you.

194
00:28:06,734 --> 00:28:08,940
Your Majesty.

195
00:28:11,989 --> 00:28:14,397
Where are the people?

196
00:28:17,286 --> 00:28:20,121
Is there no one to pay tribute to the king?

197
00:28:20,331 --> 00:28:23,914
It was expected
Your Majesty would be exhausted.

198
00:28:24,127 --> 00:28:28,171
I will be welcomed by my people.
Get them.

199
00:28:29,257 --> 00:28:33,207
Get the people now!
Otherwise, I jump in the channel.

200
00:28:35,179 --> 00:28:37,635
Are you listening? I'm jumping in the channel!

201
00:28:37,849 --> 00:28:42,143
It's a good idea. A fresh trip
in the channel will be good for you.

202
00:28:42,353 --> 00:28:44,560
N�.

203
00:28:44,773 --> 00:28:48,770
- Yes. Do you think so?
- Absolutely.

204
00:28:48,985 --> 00:28:52,188
Shall we?

205
00:28:52,405 --> 00:28:55,490
Yes, maybe a little later. Come on.

206
00:28:59,246 --> 00:29:02,282
His Majesty
has dismissed Reventlow.

207
00:29:02,499 --> 00:29:06,248
His tutor, who has looked after him,
since he was a child.

208
00:29:06,461 --> 00:29:09,462
The new doctor of life is
a bad influence.

209
00:29:09,673 --> 00:29:13,671
He is an amoral libertine,
who pulls the Majesty along...

210
00:29:16,472 --> 00:29:20,006
Aren't you going to spend the evening?
with the king?

211
00:29:20,225 --> 00:29:23,974
He wants to show Doctor Struensee
around the castle.

212
00:29:33,739 --> 00:29:37,819
- Struensee! You follow politics.
- It happens.

213
00:29:38,035 --> 00:29:42,744
You must come with me to the council today,
otherwise I will be bored.

214
00:29:44,792 --> 00:29:48,742
It seems like an innocent satire,
Mr. Guldberg.

215
00:29:48,963 --> 00:29:52,747
It is unfortunate to call satire,
who mocks the nobility, too innocent.

216
00:29:52,967 --> 00:29:57,463
What will be next?
The court? The king? The church?

217
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,551
I don't want to put anyone
in prison for a poem -

218
00:30:00,767 --> 00:30:03,554
- about the size
of a nobleman's popo.

219
00:30:03,770 --> 00:30:08,348
A fine and a one-year ban
to publish must be appropriate.

220
00:30:15,115 --> 00:30:18,899
He has exhausted the entire court
appanage in just four months.

221
00:30:19,119 --> 00:30:22,819
He won't leave us alone,
before we give him an answer.

222
00:30:23,790 --> 00:30:27,705
She was quite pleased
and asked to give -

223
00:30:27,919 --> 00:30:30,589
- the Russian envoy
a little attention.

224
00:30:30,797 --> 00:30:35,044
The vast areas
of old forest...

225
00:30:35,260 --> 00:30:38,047
If we don't, the people will...

226
00:30:38,263 --> 00:30:43,174
... cannot allow that primitive
sailors humiliate our ships.

227
00:30:43,393 --> 00:30:45,682
... 15 per tonnage.

228
00:30:45,896 --> 00:30:49,680
- What is it?
- Just sign, Your Majesty.

229
00:30:49,900 --> 00:30:52,901
... the land drill form is...

230
00:30:53,112 --> 00:30:56,397
...will throw some of the...

231
00:30:56,615 --> 00:31:00,364
... and to our naval officers.
The decision has been made.

232
00:31:08,252 --> 00:31:11,419
They all think I'm crazy.

233
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,171
Hello.

234
00:31:20,014 --> 00:31:23,763
What the hell is the point?
Why haven't we heard from you?

235
00:31:23,976 --> 00:31:26,550
Nice to see you again, Rantzau.

236
00:31:26,771 --> 00:31:29,974
Have we been showered?
What the hell are we doing here?

237
00:31:30,191 --> 00:31:34,141
- Are we not good enough for court?
- Come inside.

238
00:31:42,454 --> 00:31:44,992
Rantzau! Burnt!

239
00:31:48,460 --> 00:31:53,371
- Your Majesty.
- I have missed you. Welcome home.

240
00:32:11,024 --> 00:32:13,776
Why should Copenhagen?
stink of shit?

241
00:32:13,986 --> 00:32:17,485
I have the stench of shit in my nose,
I have shit on my shoes.

242
00:32:17,698 --> 00:32:20,652
I'm king of the shit town.

243
00:32:21,744 --> 00:32:25,741
Your Majesty,
come and have a little tear.

244
00:32:25,956 --> 00:32:30,417
Do you think it is appropriate to drink
get drunk in whorehouses every single night?

245
00:32:30,628 --> 00:32:33,083
So anyone and everyone can see it.

246
00:32:34,131 --> 00:32:39,256
- The people have nothing against it.
- Your opinion does not interest me.

247
00:32:39,470 --> 00:32:41,510
Christian?

248
00:32:43,891 --> 00:32:46,098
Sorry, mom.

249
00:32:57,530 --> 00:33:01,907
Why was it just me?
Who should have the boring goose?

250
00:33:02,118 --> 00:33:07,243
There are so many princesses, and
so I get someone who is angry all the time.

251
00:33:07,457 --> 00:33:11,040
When she's not playing queen,
she sleeps in her room.

252
00:33:11,252 --> 00:33:14,918
Have you considered
if she could be ill?

253
00:33:15,131 --> 00:33:19,509
Of course. She must be sick.
Nobody can be that boring.

254
00:33:19,719 --> 00:33:24,346
- You must see her, Struensee.
- The queen doesn't like me.

255
00:33:24,558 --> 00:33:28,057
- One of your court doctors...
- No, it must be you.

256
00:33:28,270 --> 00:33:32,054
Make fun of her.
I want a fun queen.

257
00:33:32,274 --> 00:33:35,358
I will send her up to your chamber.

258
00:33:44,369 --> 00:33:48,996
- I can't see that you are doing anything wrong.
- I could have told you that.

259
00:33:49,208 --> 00:33:52,541
It's your mood,
it's crazy about it.

260
00:33:52,753 --> 00:33:56,288
- Excuse me?
- Your mood.

261
00:33:56,507 --> 00:34:00,836
They are in a bad mood.
Do you get enough fresh air?

262
00:34:02,471 --> 00:34:07,892
What about leisure activities?
I have heard that you are a skilled pianist.

263
00:34:08,102 --> 00:34:10,973
They have heard wrong.

264
00:34:11,188 --> 00:34:12,980
Are you done?

265
00:34:13,190 --> 00:34:16,773
I would suggest the court
a stay at the summer residence.

266
00:34:25,328 --> 00:34:28,613
With your permission, of course.

267
00:34:34,295 --> 00:34:36,039
Rousseau.

268
00:34:42,470 --> 00:34:47,346
"Man is born free,
and it is everywhere in links. "

269
00:34:55,275 --> 00:34:58,561
do you mind
that I borrow this one?

270
00:35:28,684 --> 00:35:32,219
The one who comes last
smoking in the water!

271
00:35:32,438 --> 00:35:34,265
No!

272
00:35:36,609 --> 00:35:39,812
Yes! King Christian 7th,
ladies and gentlemen.

273
00:35:59,549 --> 00:36:03,167
I hear there is a smallpox epidemic
on the way in Copenhagen.

274
00:36:03,386 --> 00:36:07,680
- What do you say, Struensee?
- Let's hope it's a small one.

275
00:36:21,196 --> 00:36:24,779
Shall you charm all the nobles,
Struensee?

276
00:36:24,991 --> 00:36:28,277
Maybe we should hire a few more.

277
00:36:36,211 --> 00:36:39,829
Interesting book collection you have.

278
00:36:40,048 --> 00:36:44,960
One day you must tell me how
They had it smuggled into the castle.

279
00:36:50,976 --> 00:36:53,681
Are you riding, Your Majesty?

280
00:36:55,105 --> 00:36:57,775
Not if I can be free.

281
00:36:59,109 --> 00:37:01,779
It feels so... lumpy.

282
00:37:01,987 --> 00:37:05,403
That's because you're riding a ladies' saddle.

283
00:38:24,113 --> 00:38:28,941
I would love to be your new doctor
don't be to blame for you getting sick.

284
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:30,986
Shhh...

285
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,449
It reminds me of England.

286
00:39:18,877 --> 00:39:21,712
Locke and Voltaire are excellent.

287
00:39:21,922 --> 00:39:27,260
But parts of the Enlightenment's thoughts
is a bit beside the point, don't you think?

288
00:39:27,469 --> 00:39:32,131
Rousseau's idea of waste
civilization and live in the trees.

289
00:39:32,349 --> 00:39:36,678
- He knows that is no longer possible.
- Still running.

290
00:39:36,895 --> 00:39:41,806
The way we have built society
up, makes it difficult to live your life.

291
00:39:42,025 --> 00:39:43,769
Like for example?

292
00:39:43,986 --> 00:39:49,442
Religion. marriage. Everything that there
deprives us of our personal freedom.

293
00:39:49,658 --> 00:39:55,744
- Stop having children, Struensee.
- I didn't think so either.

294
00:39:58,459 --> 00:40:00,914
What do you want to see?

295
00:40:01,921 --> 00:40:04,875
I want to travel the world -

296
00:40:05,091 --> 00:40:08,460
- and see the places
one has only read about.

297
00:40:10,221 --> 00:40:13,222
Sounds like a good life.

298
00:40:20,732 --> 00:40:23,483
- What is it?
- A wooden horse.

299
00:40:29,240 --> 00:40:31,778
You don't have to be afraid.

300
00:40:32,619 --> 00:40:34,944
You must not...

301
00:40:42,545 --> 00:40:45,037
- Is he dead?
- Yes.

302
00:40:51,221 --> 00:40:55,005
He has been punished by his master.

303
00:41:00,897 --> 00:41:03,768
Why have they done it?

304
00:41:07,279 --> 00:41:09,319
Why?

305
00:41:10,532 --> 00:41:14,826
He must have stolen something. St
the wrong place. I don't know.

306
00:41:15,037 --> 00:41:19,117
But someone has thought,
he was to be tortured to death for it.

307
00:41:22,962 --> 00:41:25,713
There is nothing we can do.

308
00:41:25,923 --> 00:41:29,422
Half of the court
own estates in the area.

309
00:41:29,635 --> 00:41:33,763
The farmers belong here
probably someone we know.

310
00:41:56,037 --> 00:41:58,872
Brandt, do you know where Struensee is?

311
00:41:59,082 --> 00:42:04,123
Yes, he went back to Copenhagen.
It was something like a smallpox epidemic.

312
00:42:09,843 --> 00:42:14,588
I don't know what we should do.
There is no room for more in there.

313
00:42:16,141 --> 00:42:19,640
- How many are dead?
- Almost 20 today.

314
00:42:40,624 --> 00:42:43,993
Who is he?
I've seen him before.

315
00:42:44,211 --> 00:42:47,295
He is a servant at court, doctor.

316
00:42:49,383 --> 00:42:51,791
They are crazy, Struensee.

317
00:42:52,011 --> 00:42:55,546
It is one thing to carry out experiments
on the population, -

318
00:42:55,764 --> 00:42:58,600
but to risk the crown prince's life?

319
00:42:58,809 --> 00:43:05,523
- I am trying to secure his life.
- What is he even doing out there?

320
00:43:05,733 --> 00:43:09,434
Life medicine has nothing to do
out at the city's hospitals.

321
00:43:09,654 --> 00:43:15,194
More than 700 people are dead,
and most of them are children.

322
00:43:15,409 --> 00:43:20,072
Today the disease reached
over the canals at Christiansborg.

323
00:43:20,289 --> 00:43:23,207
Have you tried this variolation?

324
00:43:23,418 --> 00:43:27,285
- Yes. Among other things, on myself.
- What is the survival rate?

325
00:43:28,590 --> 00:43:32,753
- There is always a certain risk...
- Some risk!

326
00:43:32,969 --> 00:43:37,465
But if it goes well, and it is
I'm sure he'll be immune.

327
00:43:37,682 --> 00:43:42,178
The crown prince is the heir to the throne of the kingdom.
He is protected by Our Lord.

328
00:43:42,395 --> 00:43:46,974
A smallpox epidemic is not the norm.
It takes both kings and queens.

329
00:43:47,192 --> 00:43:49,600
You know that very well.

330
00:43:51,404 --> 00:43:53,860
Your Majesty?

331
00:44:31,862 --> 00:44:34,614
Mom, can't we just go now?

332
00:44:37,868 --> 00:44:42,281
- Then it's just a matter of waiting.
- Dear Struensee, come and sit here.

333
00:45:20,370 --> 00:45:23,870
The variolation went well.

334
00:45:24,082 --> 00:45:26,324
Thank you, dear God.

335
00:45:26,543 --> 00:45:29,580
God has nothing to do with this.

336
00:45:32,925 --> 00:45:35,712
How many lives
Can your method save?

337
00:45:35,928 --> 00:45:39,131
Most, if you do it right.

338
00:45:40,766 --> 00:45:43,435
What are we waiting for?

339
00:45:45,229 --> 00:45:49,013
- Are you laughing at me?
- I'm not the right person to ask.

340
00:45:51,277 --> 00:45:55,488
Her Majesty proposes,
that the court should administer -

341
00:45:55,698 --> 00:45:59,909
- an extensive smallpox variolation
to the city's hospitals.

342
00:46:00,119 --> 00:46:03,535
We have investigated the matter,
but the cost…

343
00:46:03,748 --> 00:46:07,033
We are really excited for,
as it is.

344
00:46:07,251 --> 00:46:12,957
Inform your majesty that the proposal will
be taken up for consideration later.

345
00:46:25,562 --> 00:46:29,096
- What is this?
- Your Majesty?

346
00:46:56,176 --> 00:46:57,801
Anonymous.

347
00:47:06,562 --> 00:47:09,017
"JS."

348
00:48:29,354 --> 00:48:31,561
- Rantzau.
- Your Majesty.

349
00:48:31,773 --> 00:48:35,107
May I present
Madame Sophie Livernet.

350
00:48:35,319 --> 00:48:40,111
- Your Majesty, it is an eagle.
- The essence of my heart.

351
00:48:42,910 --> 00:48:46,279
He swears only half as much
together with her.

352
00:48:46,497 --> 00:48:52,452
She is only interested in his money.
Her family has lost their fortune.

353
00:48:52,670 --> 00:48:55,161
As long as he is happy.

354
00:48:55,381 --> 00:49:00,458
Men shut out all reason,
when it comes to beautiful, young women.

355
00:49:02,096 --> 00:49:05,880
"Le Morte d'Arthur".
Have you read it? Thomas Malory.

356
00:49:06,100 --> 00:49:08,306
I have heard about it.

357
00:49:08,519 --> 00:49:12,766
King Arthur's knight, Lancelot,
has an affair with Queen Guinevere.

358
00:49:12,982 --> 00:49:17,478
The king discovers them, orders
slay them, and the kingdom falls.

359
00:49:23,034 --> 00:49:25,442
You are an idiot.

360
00:49:26,996 --> 00:49:32,869
I don't feel like standing around and grieving
at the grave with your severed head.

361
00:49:57,653 --> 00:50:01,235
- Your Majesty.
- No, stay seated.

362
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:08,576
I succeeded
to get away from the court ladies.

363
00:50:08,789 --> 00:50:11,494
Many years of training.

364
00:50:21,177 --> 00:50:24,676
Do you ever think we'll be free?

365
00:50:25,973 --> 00:50:28,049
The people, I mean.

366
00:50:29,060 --> 00:50:31,183
Humanity.

367
00:50:35,358 --> 00:50:38,228
Will your beloved information -

368
00:50:38,444 --> 00:50:42,774
- set us free from stupidity
and fear of divine punishment?

369
00:50:46,119 --> 00:50:48,692
I think so. Yes.

370
00:50:53,209 --> 00:50:57,421
Frederik's generation will be
the bannermen of the new era.

371
00:51:02,052 --> 00:51:05,337
Shall we lie on our deathbeds
and rejoice over, -

372
00:51:05,555 --> 00:51:08,841
that new times rush by outside?

373
00:51:17,025 --> 00:51:21,652
All your wonderful thoughts
reach no further than the paper.

374
00:51:25,033 --> 00:51:29,197
I have just as many powers
at court as a maid.

375
00:51:32,374 --> 00:51:34,616
And my husband?

376
00:51:34,835 --> 00:51:38,038
I guess he has some kind of powers.

377
00:51:40,674 --> 00:51:45,882
They don't realize how much
influence you have on Christian.

378
00:51:48,724 --> 00:51:51,476
He trusts you blindly.

379
00:51:59,777 --> 00:52:02,446
What should you wear to the masquerade ball?

380
00:52:02,655 --> 00:52:07,566
I come as a French court jester.
I want to talk like this here.

381
00:52:07,785 --> 00:52:12,328
Like a Frenchman.
All evening.

382
00:52:17,003 --> 00:52:21,629
Do you remember what you once said
that everyone at court thinks you're crazy?

383
00:52:25,136 --> 00:52:29,134
- It's fun.
- I don't think you are.

384
00:52:30,809 --> 00:52:36,230
Some people are so sealed
of their fate that they must hide -

385
00:52:36,439 --> 00:52:39,440
deep inside their own minds.

386
00:52:44,448 --> 00:52:47,982
You can stay
a great king, Christian.

387
00:52:51,246 --> 00:52:55,789
You can really make a difference if
you dare to use your power in the council.

388
00:52:56,001 --> 00:52:58,872
I don't know anything about those things.
I can't do that.

389
00:52:59,087 --> 00:53:02,088
I'm sure you can.

390
00:53:02,299 --> 00:53:04,541
How?

391
00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:09,967
By doing what you love most.
Play plays.

392
00:53:14,436 --> 00:53:19,098
Just like at the theatre.
Where the lines are already written.

393
00:53:22,653 --> 00:53:25,358
Acting?

394
00:53:31,162 --> 00:53:34,163
What would you like to change?

395
00:53:38,586 --> 00:53:42,584
Dear members of the council.

396
00:53:47,971 --> 00:53:54,768
No more shall the noble, refined
the nose is disturbed by the stench of the city.

397
00:53:54,978 --> 00:53:59,640
No more shall the people be suffocated
in the fumes of their own waste.

398
00:53:59,858 --> 00:54:01,981
- Your Majesty...
- I...

399
00:54:02,193 --> 00:54:07,152
... King Christian 7. ,
hereby declare war on shit.

400
00:54:07,365 --> 00:54:11,695
From tonight onwards there will be three
times so many night men on the streets.

401
00:54:11,912 --> 00:54:17,701
- Where would the money come from?
- I knew you would ask about that.

402
00:54:17,918 --> 00:54:22,165
The money must be found by cutting
a smaller amount of the pensions -

403
00:54:22,381 --> 00:54:27,422
- for those who have income from
their estates and therefore fairly possessed -

404
00:54:27,636 --> 00:54:30,672
do not need any pension.

405
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,308
Excellent, Your Majesty.
Several night months.

406
00:54:41,734 --> 00:54:46,941
And Gourmand must be appointed
to �res member of the council.

407
00:55:06,843 --> 00:55:08,716
Struensee!

408
00:55:27,614 --> 00:55:29,939
Your Majesty.

409
00:55:32,619 --> 00:55:36,486
- They recognized me.
- I can do that blindfolded.

410
00:55:38,124 --> 00:55:41,458
But otherwise you are not
particularly inventive.

411
00:55:41,670 --> 00:55:45,798
No, I guess I'm not
so good for mask balls.

412
00:55:48,135 --> 00:55:52,631
For me it's the only night
where all people can be themselves.

413
00:55:54,391 --> 00:55:59,053
But you never take off the mask,
are you doing well?

414
00:56:05,736 --> 00:56:07,859
Your Majesty.

415
00:56:10,741 --> 00:56:13,113
Can I get clean?

416
00:56:46,027 --> 00:56:47,652
Thanks!

417
00:58:19,455 --> 00:58:21,863
Was that it?

418
00:58:24,586 --> 00:58:27,421
Am I such a boring dance partner?

419
00:58:27,630 --> 00:58:32,127
I'm sure there are many
standing in line to dance with you.

420
00:59:40,413 --> 00:59:42,655
Where have you been?

421
00:59:44,208 --> 00:59:47,542
- Hello, Christian.
- I got a new idea.

422
00:59:47,754 --> 00:59:49,296
What?

423
00:59:49,506 --> 00:59:53,883
What if you had empty cards,
who drove around town -

424
00:59:54,094 --> 00:59:58,672
- and picked people up when they stayed
too drunk to find home?

425
01:00:00,100 --> 01:00:03,469
- Yes. Why not?
- Yes.

426
01:00:21,038 --> 01:00:24,074
You come and read
for us tonight, mother?

427
01:00:24,291 --> 01:00:27,742
no i think
I go to bed early.

428
01:03:27,394 --> 01:03:31,392
I am not asking you to forgive
me for what I did, -

429
01:03:31,607 --> 01:03:36,068
- but for the first time in my life
I was happy. 

430
01:03:37,154 --> 01:03:43,987
"Should those poor, unwanted children only
thrown out on the street or killed?

431
01:03:44,203 --> 01:03:47,287
No, I say.
There must be a... "

432
01:03:47,498 --> 01:03:52,290
We thought we could have everything
at once. We were naive. 

433
01:03:52,503 --> 01:03:56,631
- "A home where mothers can..."
- Don't repeat it.

434
01:03:59,802 --> 01:04:04,429
Then I just got another idea.
I propose a law to...

435
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:10,679
For a moment it seemed as if we
could do something. Change things up. 

436
01:04:14,067 --> 01:04:19,061
Our small group of enlighteners
grew. So did the ideas. 

437
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:24,108
- It's still the same...
- I think we should introduce...

438
01:04:24,327 --> 01:04:26,486
- No...
- We have talked about it.

439
01:04:26,705 --> 01:04:29,871
But the council was too strong. 

440
01:04:30,875 --> 01:04:35,004
And the harder it got, 
the more resistance he got, -

441
01:04:35,213 --> 01:04:39,293
- the more indifferent
Christian began to stay. 

442
01:04:39,509 --> 01:04:43,128
You have to introduce
smallpox variolation to the people.

443
01:04:43,347 --> 01:04:46,431
We have talked about that.
There is no money for that.

444
01:04:46,642 --> 01:04:48,681
Fine.

445
01:05:07,121 --> 01:05:12,198
All our ideas are voted down,
before Christian can open his mouth.

446
01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:24,129
What if you became a member
of the council?

447
01:05:27,391 --> 01:05:30,558
Christian is all alone in there.

448
01:05:31,938 --> 01:05:35,141
He needs someone
to defend themselves.

449
01:05:35,358 --> 01:05:39,356
I definitely will
be elected unanimously.

450
01:05:41,990 --> 01:05:43,698
I mean it.

451
01:05:49,956 --> 01:05:54,250
That would give us a chance
against all the wigs.

452
01:05:54,461 --> 01:05:58,838
It is something a little different than proposing
night lights and street lighting.

453
01:05:59,633 --> 01:06:03,049
Bernstorff is getting old.

454
01:06:03,261 --> 01:06:07,722
The ministers are not so loyal
before him as they have been.

455
01:06:21,446 --> 01:06:24,613
what are you doing
Doctor Struensee?

456
01:06:24,825 --> 01:06:27,281
I do nothing.

457
01:06:29,371 --> 01:06:32,657
The king continues
his progress in the council.

458
01:06:32,875 --> 01:06:36,742
Smallpox variolation,
the home for the unwanted children.

459
01:06:37,880 --> 01:06:40,834
That one must reward
women for fornication.

460
01:06:41,050 --> 01:06:43,588
It is repulsive.

461
01:06:44,678 --> 01:06:49,839
I am concerned about the nature of
his proposal. Where they originate from.

462
01:06:50,893 --> 01:06:54,227
Variolation is the queen's idea.

463
01:06:54,438 --> 01:06:59,147
She wants to be at the front
as the people's saving angel.

464
01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:02,563
I think it's the German.

465
01:07:02,780 --> 01:07:08,451
I've heard scary rumors about
Struensee, but cannot prove anything.

466
01:07:08,661 --> 01:07:12,326
But your influence is enough
all the way to the colonies.

467
01:07:18,838 --> 01:07:23,796
Allow me to be very direct,
dowager queen.

468
01:07:24,010 --> 01:07:27,510
I know your ambitions
for your son.

469
01:07:29,558 --> 01:07:34,516
That Christian steps into character
as king, is not in your interest.

470
01:07:35,522 --> 01:07:38,606
Regardless of who whispers to him in court.

471
01:07:41,319 --> 01:07:45,697
- They don't go along with it.
- And maybe they do.

472
01:07:45,908 --> 01:07:49,193
These are 100 year old laws,
we are talking about.

473
01:07:49,411 --> 01:07:55,200
- Would you like someone to help you?
- You, but I can't myself.

474
01:08:00,589 --> 01:08:04,753
It doesn't make any sense.
A regular doctor on the board?

475
01:08:04,969 --> 01:08:08,587
He is not
an ordinary doctor, unfortunately.

476
01:08:08,806 --> 01:08:13,302
We have found anonymous writings in
Altona, which Struensee has authored.

477
01:08:14,770 --> 01:08:20,606
- Which scriptures are we talking about?
- Thoughts on the farmer's rights.

478
01:08:20,818 --> 01:08:24,768
Proposal for halving of
the farmer's committed working hours.

479
01:08:24,989 --> 01:08:30,363
Proposal for the abolition of landlordism
right to physically punish his slaves.

480
01:08:30,578 --> 01:08:35,703
Question marks around the whole idea
about the landlord's ownership of the farmer.

481
01:08:35,917 --> 01:08:39,037
Including the staff band.
I'm not done!

482
01:08:39,254 --> 01:08:43,797
Abolition of torture during interrogation
of prisoners and criminals.

483
01:08:44,008 --> 01:08:48,255
Limitations of the church's influence
in public interests.

484
01:08:48,471 --> 01:08:53,714
Basic speculation
about the stultifying nature of religion.

485
01:08:53,935 --> 01:08:57,304
There are over 100 such pages.

486
01:08:57,522 --> 01:09:02,599
The king allows himself to be dictated to directly
by an informant.

487
01:09:04,029 --> 01:09:07,647
Denmark is one of the last bastions
in a depraved Europe.

488
01:09:07,866 --> 01:09:12,279
If we let foreigners in
the country with their unchristian ideas…

489
01:09:12,496 --> 01:09:17,074
May I remind you that we are
several foreigners present here today.

490
01:09:17,292 --> 01:09:22,916
Bernstorff, there is not one here, there
do not admire you and your work.

491
01:09:23,132 --> 01:09:27,343
They cannot allow such a dangerous man
as Struensee at court.

492
01:09:27,553 --> 01:09:31,218
It will be unforgivable
in everyone's eyes.

493
01:09:35,853 --> 01:09:38,723
- There's something wrong.
- It will probably work.

494
01:09:48,783 --> 01:09:52,697
Do you have any interesting suggestions
to us today, Your Majesty?

495
01:10:11,222 --> 01:10:16,465
I have recently come
to the conclusion that it is…

496
01:10:17,562 --> 01:10:20,682
... time for new blood
in the �red conseil.

497
01:10:22,359 --> 01:10:26,143
New thoughts for new times,
so to speak.

498
01:10:26,363 --> 01:10:32,697
I can imagine you have found it
right candidate in Doctor Struensee?

499
01:10:35,330 --> 01:10:39,826
Sit down again, Your Majesty.
That is out of the question.

500
01:10:41,253 --> 01:10:44,752
- If I must be allowed?
- You have not spoken here.

501
01:10:44,965 --> 01:10:51,466
What is so dangerous about letting one
citizen gets the floor when it comes to...

502
01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:55,345
We are familiar with
Their country-damaging ideas.

503
01:10:57,770 --> 01:11:00,521
Sit down, Your Majesty.

504
01:11:06,028 --> 01:11:10,524
I call for a separate vote on
to remove Struensee from the court -

505
01:11:10,741 --> 01:11:13,908
and expel him from Denmark.

506
01:11:27,633 --> 01:11:29,673
No...

507
01:11:33,639 --> 01:11:35,632
No, no, no...

508
01:11:39,854 --> 01:11:41,894
Stop!

509
01:11:44,192 --> 01:11:46,231
Let him go.

510
01:11:49,447 --> 01:11:53,860
Release him at once,
or I'll have your heads chopped off!

511
01:12:02,169 --> 01:12:05,787
- Your Majesty.
- I am king!

512
01:12:07,132 --> 01:12:09,504
Shhh!

513
01:12:15,307 --> 01:12:17,763
Bernstorff...

514
01:12:18,685 --> 01:12:21,556
... you are relieved of your post.

515
01:12:25,567 --> 01:12:29,648
And then I explain
the whole council for dissolved!

516
01:12:31,073 --> 01:12:36,233
Surrender at my command
the management of all the country's affairs -

517
01:12:36,453 --> 01:12:43,251
- to a cabinet consisting only of me
himself and Johann Friedrich Struensee.

518
01:12:54,347 --> 01:12:57,016
Goodbye, piss ants.

519
01:13:02,939 --> 01:13:06,639
I did it.
I did it!

520
01:13:06,859 --> 01:13:09,814
- Did you see me right there?
- Yes, I see you.

521
01:13:13,366 --> 01:13:18,740
Are you aware of what has happened?
All the things we can do now?

522
01:13:18,955 --> 01:13:21,363
Yes.

523
01:13:21,583 --> 01:13:23,990
I can already feel it.

524
01:13:24,210 --> 01:13:26,998
The change.

525
01:14:25,064 --> 01:14:28,314
It was an indescribable feeling. 

526
01:14:29,736 --> 01:14:34,314
All our thoughts and ideas
could now become a reality. 

527
01:14:39,579 --> 01:14:42,200
We sat up day and night. 

528
01:14:44,167 --> 01:14:49,541
The next few months alone remained there
issued several hundred laws. 

529
01:14:51,675 --> 01:14:53,963
Everything was possible. 

530
01:14:56,054 --> 01:15:01,297
Denmark had become a pioneering country, 
admired throughout Europe. 

531
01:15:03,937 --> 01:15:07,021
The information had finally arrived. 

532
01:15:30,881 --> 01:15:34,546
- Rantzau, a long time ago.
- It's quite an office.

533
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:38,592
It's not my office.
It's the cabinet. How does it work?

534
01:15:38,806 --> 01:15:45,010
Pissing. I spend all my time
to find out all the new laws.

535
01:15:45,229 --> 01:15:49,938
You get powerful ideas,
like the rest of us change clothes.

536
01:15:50,151 --> 01:15:54,398
People have no idea
which leg they must stand on.

537
01:15:54,614 --> 01:15:57,899
Struensee,
you are a fucking provincial doctor.

538
01:15:58,117 --> 01:16:02,779
You have never owned anything.
You don't even have a title.

539
01:16:02,997 --> 01:16:05,868
And now you think
you can rule an entire country.

540
01:16:06,084 --> 01:16:09,951
So it's nice that I have
my noble friend to advise me.

541
01:16:10,171 --> 01:16:13,338
You have enough titles for both of us.

542
01:16:18,054 --> 01:16:19,881
TO KING CHRISTIAN

543
01:16:20,974 --> 01:16:23,097
What is it?

544
01:16:23,310 --> 01:16:27,604
It is a letter to Christian
from Voltaire.

545
01:16:36,406 --> 01:16:40,618
- Voltaire himself.
- Yes, it is almost impossible to fathom.

546
01:16:41,912 --> 01:16:45,198
He must have heard
about everything we've done.

547
01:16:53,007 --> 01:16:55,842
- What's wrong?
- I'm pregnant.

548
01:17:11,942 --> 01:17:14,516
You know what that means, right?

549
01:17:19,033 --> 01:17:23,446
Everyone knows I haven't
been with Christian.

550
01:17:27,083 --> 01:17:29,704
That's not going to happen either.

551
01:17:29,919 --> 01:17:32,493
I will have to.

552
01:17:34,924 --> 01:17:36,833
No.

553
01:17:39,721 --> 01:17:43,588
Do you want, our child
must end up in the gutter?

554
01:17:51,524 --> 01:17:54,691
Blah, blah, blah...

555
01:17:54,903 --> 01:17:59,980
"The rising sun,
as you, the lights of the North, -

556
01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:03,699
- in Your infinite wisdom
has come to life.

557
01:18:03,912 --> 01:18:06,071
Voltaire. "

558
01:18:07,457 --> 01:18:12,582
Northern lights? Struensee, I am
afraid, history is on my side.

559
01:18:14,756 --> 01:18:18,172
You have not visited
the queen's bedroom for over a year.

560
01:18:18,385 --> 01:18:23,628
It will be interpreted as if you are neglecting
your marital obligations.

561
01:18:23,849 --> 01:18:27,183
No. No, she doesn't want to.

562
01:18:30,731 --> 01:18:35,938
Yes, on the contrary. She has told me
that she wants it to happen.

563
01:18:36,153 --> 01:18:39,071
I can't get it
up to stand with her.

564
01:18:43,452 --> 01:18:46,619
Just think of it as more acting.

565
01:18:59,135 --> 01:19:04,889
I will resume my visits
in the queen's chambers from last night.

566
01:19:19,864 --> 01:19:23,280
- Christian.
- Mother.

567
01:19:33,003 --> 01:19:35,042
Come on.

568
01:20:02,950 --> 01:20:06,651
Stop coming here.
I stink at him.

569
01:20:15,630 --> 01:20:19,710
We must see each other
as little as possible from now on.

570
01:20:19,926 --> 01:20:22,761
For the child's sake.

571
01:20:34,315 --> 01:20:36,687
Please go.

572
01:20:48,204 --> 01:20:51,490
The revival I have seen
could be the devil, -

573
01:20:52,584 --> 01:20:56,795
- and Satan has the power to take over
the beautiful figure of a tempter.

574
01:20:57,881 --> 01:21:02,093
Maybe he's taking advantage of my weakness
and my heaviness, -

575
01:21:02,302 --> 01:21:08,175
- in that kind of soul he has a lot
power, and entices me to mortal sin.

576
01:21:08,392 --> 01:21:11,476
Move, Brandt.
You hit me in the neck.

577
01:21:11,687 --> 01:21:16,016
Clear proof, I must have it.

578
01:21:17,443 --> 01:21:24,324
My acting is the thing. It brings
the king's bread ready for the day.

579
01:21:29,371 --> 01:21:34,283
Christian, I don't think so.
we can be more intimate.

580
01:21:34,502 --> 01:21:40,505
- It's not healthy.
- Well, no, the child. It is clear.

581
01:21:42,635 --> 01:21:45,589
Maybe you'd rather
must sleep with yourself.

582
01:21:45,805 --> 01:21:50,846
No, no, no. I like
to sleep here with you.

583
01:21:56,232 --> 01:22:00,360
can you hear me
when I speak here? What?

584
01:22:00,570 --> 01:22:04,568
Can you hear, it's dad talking?
Can you hear dad?

585
01:22:16,211 --> 01:22:20,339
- And what do we see here?
- An investigation of the court's expenses.

586
01:22:20,549 --> 01:22:22,956
Why that?

587
01:22:23,176 --> 01:22:26,759
Because the country has a bad economy,
so we have to cut.

588
01:22:26,972 --> 01:22:31,052
Hm... Yes, yes, yes. No...

589
01:22:31,268 --> 01:22:34,055
Now just sign.

590
01:22:36,898 --> 01:22:38,772
I have an idea.

591
01:22:38,984 --> 01:22:45,069
How about a new holiday where all the
young ladies at court must be naked?

592
01:22:45,282 --> 01:22:48,402
- It's not a game.
- It could be fun.

593
01:22:48,619 --> 01:22:52,451
If they walked around any
and frolicking around...

594
01:22:52,665 --> 01:22:55,749
Stop the hell!

595
01:22:57,670 --> 01:23:00,421
You mustn't scold me.

596
01:23:02,424 --> 01:23:05,710
You mustn't scold me.
You mustn't scold me.

597
01:23:05,928 --> 01:23:07,636
Excuse me.

598
01:23:07,847 --> 01:23:11,097
You mustn't scold me.
I am the king.

599
01:23:30,078 --> 01:23:32,913
Christian, try looking here.

600
01:23:37,544 --> 01:23:43,499
That decree means that you don't need to
sign each and every document.

601
01:23:43,717 --> 01:23:46,671
It's enough that I do it.

602
01:23:51,016 --> 01:23:54,800
So you don't need me anymore
to sign the laws?

603
01:23:55,020 --> 01:23:58,720
Paperwork bores you.
You need to have fun.

604
01:23:58,940 --> 01:24:01,645
I have fun with you.

605
01:24:02,861 --> 01:24:05,482
It's just a formality.

606
01:24:06,448 --> 01:24:09,899
So we can spend our time together
on the good things.

607
01:24:39,023 --> 01:24:42,309
I appoint you
herewith to the king...

608
01:24:44,070 --> 01:24:46,228
... of Prussia.

609
01:24:48,449 --> 01:24:50,276
Boom!

610
01:24:58,876 --> 01:25:03,337
I was visited by the bailiff.
I am in debt for up to both years.

611
01:25:03,548 --> 01:25:06,999
Satan's leeches.
If you want to get it sorted.

612
01:25:07,218 --> 01:25:10,468
I can't just erase your debt.

613
01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:14,381
Of course you can.
You just have to sign.

614
01:25:14,601 --> 01:25:17,768
Should I let my friends
use government money?

615
01:25:17,979 --> 01:25:23,104
- How do I explain it to the people?
- Up in the ass with the people.

616
01:25:23,318 --> 01:25:27,268
Can't you hear what I'm saying?
I'm flat.

617
01:25:33,996 --> 01:25:36,534
Sophie is about to leave me.

618
01:25:39,209 --> 01:25:42,578
I can see it in her eyes.

619
01:25:43,839 --> 01:25:46,295
She doesn't smile at me anymore.

620
01:25:48,635 --> 01:25:51,127
I can lend you some money.

621
01:25:51,347 --> 01:25:55,131
How much is needed
to keep them from the door?

622
01:25:58,354 --> 01:26:01,105
Who the hell do you think you are?

623
01:26:16,873 --> 01:26:20,953
Her Majesty is not
particularly social at the moment.

624
01:26:21,169 --> 01:26:26,543
- She keeps to herself.
- Has she ever been social?

625
01:26:32,430 --> 01:26:35,846
May I be allowed
to follow you a little out of the way?

626
01:26:40,980 --> 01:26:44,895
I'm not going to stay
at the summer castle much longer.

627
01:26:45,110 --> 01:26:48,276
- Back to duties?
- Yes.

628
01:26:50,657 --> 01:26:53,278
How does it work?

629
01:26:53,493 --> 01:26:55,984
It kicks all the time.

630
01:26:57,247 --> 01:27:00,248
He wants to go out
and see his beautiful mother.

631
01:27:00,459 --> 01:27:02,665
You mean she.

632
01:27:23,065 --> 01:27:28,356
You are well aware that this is treason,
if you are keeping something hidden from me.

633
01:27:28,571 --> 01:27:33,945
If this kind of adultery takes place,
and you have seen something, -

634
01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:36,995
- then it is a mortal sin
not to say that.

635
01:27:37,204 --> 01:27:40,408
You smoke directly into purgatory.

636
01:27:40,625 --> 01:27:43,910
We swear. We don't know anything.

637
01:27:47,006 --> 01:27:49,414
You can go now.

638
01:27:49,634 --> 01:27:52,635
And not a word to anyone about this.

639
01:27:57,183 --> 01:27:59,970
I know what I saw.

640
01:28:05,567 --> 01:28:08,437
I have seen something.

641
01:28:11,990 --> 01:28:14,066
It's close.

642
01:28:27,631 --> 01:28:30,632
Why has construction stalled?

643
01:28:30,842 --> 01:28:34,176
we have no money
before taxes are claimed.

644
01:28:34,388 --> 01:28:39,762
- All those changes cost money.
- We must look at the apanage of the nobles.

645
01:28:41,520 --> 01:28:46,265
- Do you mean it?
- They are just draining the treasury.

646
01:28:46,483 --> 01:28:49,057
You bring the whole court against you.

647
01:28:49,278 --> 01:28:52,398
- How much will it release?
- Not enough.

648
01:28:52,615 --> 01:28:56,149
Guldberg whispers to all of them,
who will listen to him.

649
01:28:56,368 --> 01:28:59,737
Military court?
We haven't been at war in 50 years.

650
01:28:59,955 --> 01:29:02,791
The military court. Are you sure?

651
01:29:04,627 --> 01:29:10,131
Her Majesty has given birth to a daughter.
She can be inspected in a moment.

652
01:29:41,498 --> 01:29:45,198
- I need peace.
- Yes, there must be a celebration.

653
01:29:45,418 --> 01:29:48,870
Everyone is invited up
in my chambers. Come on.

654
01:29:49,756 --> 01:29:52,128
Doctor Struensee.

655
01:29:54,428 --> 01:29:56,504
Will you look at me?

656
01:30:32,049 --> 01:30:34,421
Louise Augusta.

657
01:30:36,012 --> 01:30:38,467
Louise Augusta.

658
01:30:53,696 --> 01:30:55,736
i love you

659
01:30:58,576 --> 01:31:00,902
i love you

660
01:31:08,628 --> 01:31:11,084
We are a family now.

661
01:31:14,843 --> 01:31:17,250
How small she is.

662
01:31:18,805 --> 01:31:23,301
- We must tell His Majesty that.
- We must not go directly to the king.

663
01:31:23,518 --> 01:31:28,761
- Are you suggesting we ignore it?
- We don't want to involve Christian.

664
01:31:29,483 --> 01:31:34,441
All that has happened throws
serious doubts about his judgement.

665
01:31:34,655 --> 01:31:38,237
The people are no longer served by him.

666
01:31:44,248 --> 01:31:48,993
Your Royal Highness.
They talk about overthrowing the majesty.

667
01:31:49,211 --> 01:31:52,829
- There would be chaos.
- On the contrary.

668
01:31:53,048 --> 01:31:59,418
There would be order. A new cabinet
consisting of righteous men.

669
01:31:59,638 --> 01:32:02,889
The people want to chop us to pieces.

670
01:32:03,100 --> 01:32:07,180
Not if we have
the next heir to the throne.

671
01:32:10,942 --> 01:32:14,891
How will you achieve it, without
the king has us all hanged?

672
01:32:15,113 --> 01:32:20,107
Let's just say that Struensee itself
has given us a very effective weapon.

673
01:32:20,326 --> 01:32:24,620
Struensee, it's me, Brandt!
I am alone. Come on!

674
01:32:25,999 --> 01:32:30,993
Christian's bodyguards have just returned
back from town. He has gone berserk.

675
01:32:37,135 --> 01:32:39,840
Hurry up!
He destroys everything.

676
01:32:49,815 --> 01:32:52,021
Christian.

677
01:32:54,653 --> 01:32:57,108
The King of Prussia.

678
01:32:58,240 --> 01:33:00,149
What has happened?

679
01:33:03,412 --> 01:33:06,911
Was it always just her
you wanted?

680
01:33:09,376 --> 01:33:11,867
Was that it?

681
01:33:15,090 --> 01:33:17,498
Is it true?

682
01:33:17,718 --> 01:33:19,960
Is that your child?

683
01:33:21,680 --> 01:33:23,507
No.

684
01:33:27,686 --> 01:33:30,224
Swear.

685
01:33:30,439 --> 01:33:33,773
I swear it's not true.

686
01:33:41,993 --> 01:33:45,029
That's not true, Christian.

687
01:33:53,880 --> 01:33:57,545
Why would anyone want to
write something like that, what?

688
01:34:01,262 --> 01:34:03,967
Something vicious.

689
01:34:08,520 --> 01:34:11,355
Leave me alone, you little tail.

690
01:34:15,193 --> 01:34:17,233
Come on!

691
01:34:19,406 --> 01:34:23,653
This is what he read.
They are distributed all over the city.

692
01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:51,892
They are taking her from us.

693
01:35:01,824 --> 01:35:05,822
Doctor Struensee?
I didn't think you came down here.

694
01:35:06,746 --> 01:35:10,790
But it's never too late
to ask for forgiveness.

695
01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:14,535
You are exempt
for your duties at court.

696
01:35:14,754 --> 01:35:18,253
Your things are being packed.

697
01:35:18,466 --> 01:35:21,039
You can't do that.
I am employed by...

698
01:35:21,260 --> 01:35:23,834
i can do
what suits me.

699
01:35:33,481 --> 01:35:36,186
You destroy my country, Struensee.

700
01:35:36,401 --> 01:35:41,277
Blessed by a king,
we both know is disturbed.

701
01:35:41,489 --> 01:35:44,609
Who is most disturbed?
The king...

702
01:35:44,826 --> 01:35:49,702
... or someone who sincerely believes
The earth was created in six days?

703
01:35:50,832 --> 01:35:53,786
Disappear or I'll have you removed.

704
01:36:00,592 --> 01:36:04,210
I don't like the people in the city
writes such lies.

705
01:36:04,429 --> 01:36:07,680
I think you should stay at the castle.

706
01:36:07,891 --> 01:36:12,434
- It is so boring here.
- I have a surprise for you.

707
01:36:14,940 --> 01:36:19,234
- Christian, with Moranti.
- No, he looks funny!

708
01:36:22,448 --> 01:36:26,991
He has escaped from a slave trader
and has found its way to our kitchen.

709
01:36:28,412 --> 01:36:31,449
He could make a good page.

710
01:36:37,129 --> 01:36:40,914
I want to play with him
but I can't take care of him.

711
01:36:41,134 --> 01:36:46,590
No, of course not. Brandt will
be with you all the time.

712
01:36:46,806 --> 01:36:50,305
I hate Brandt.
I want you with me.

713
01:36:50,518 --> 01:36:52,760
I'll be right back.

714
01:36:57,984 --> 01:37:01,435
Shouldn't you show Moranti
around the castle?

715
01:37:47,534 --> 01:37:52,161
They say you have poisoned Christian.
That you will drive him insane.

716
01:37:57,628 --> 01:38:02,005
That you want to kill your own son,
that only Louise is the heir.

717
01:38:02,216 --> 01:38:08,753
The rest is about the evil foreigner,
that will bring the country to ruin.

718
01:38:14,812 --> 01:38:20,483
We can't get around it.
We need to reintroduce censorship.

719
01:38:22,237 --> 01:38:24,906
It spreads.
We need to...

720
01:38:25,114 --> 01:38:27,154
So do it!

721
01:38:28,201 --> 01:38:31,072
Do it. Reintroduce the censorship.

722
01:38:33,581 --> 01:38:35,408
Piss!

723
01:38:47,179 --> 01:38:51,722
Caroline, you haven't
slept for several days.

724
01:38:56,063 --> 01:38:58,305
They hate us.

725
01:39:01,860 --> 01:39:03,900
Come on.

726
01:39:07,866 --> 01:39:10,239
- What is it?
- Laudanum.

727
01:39:10,452 --> 01:39:13,868
That will help you
to calm down a bit.

728
01:39:19,128 --> 01:39:21,453
That's enough.

729
01:39:51,160 --> 01:39:55,407
Your Majesty! What are you doing?
my personal doctor in your chamber?

730
01:39:55,623 --> 01:39:58,458
We contented ourselves
with a little game of chess.

731
01:39:58,668 --> 01:40:02,618
Is it a new kind of chess,
since you don't have any clothes on?

732
01:40:08,803 --> 01:40:12,007
- Why aren't you at Louise's?
- His Majesty insisted.

733
01:40:12,224 --> 01:40:15,390
He wanted to spend time with the child.

734
01:40:22,275 --> 01:40:24,434
Get away from her.

735
01:40:27,781 --> 01:40:30,355
I didn't do anything.

736
01:40:30,576 --> 01:40:32,402
Mother...

737
01:40:34,580 --> 01:40:37,581
I'm not your mother!

738
01:40:37,791 --> 01:40:42,334
You must never be alone
with her again, do you understand?

739
01:40:43,839 --> 01:40:45,962
You are sick.

740
01:41:25,548 --> 01:41:30,009
Would you like to know who it is?
the little nephew's real father?

741
01:41:34,140 --> 01:41:37,806
- Your Majesty...
- The real father...

742
01:41:40,689 --> 01:41:43,809
... is the King of Prussia!

743
01:41:44,025 --> 01:41:47,359
The King of Prussia
has bun my mother!

744
01:41:47,571 --> 01:41:51,485
- Your Majesty...
- The little bitch licks his cock.

745
01:41:52,576 --> 01:41:56,621
- I'm not someone... Let it be...
- Fuck, fuck, fuck!

746
01:41:58,165 --> 01:42:00,738
Burnt!

747
01:42:00,959 --> 01:42:03,996
My finger!
Let go! My finger!

748
01:42:04,213 --> 01:42:06,289
Stop! Stop!

749
01:42:07,925 --> 01:42:10,630
What the hell are you thinking?

750
01:42:17,226 --> 01:42:20,642
- You have lied to me.
- Would you like to be alone?

751
01:42:20,855 --> 01:42:23,476
Would you like to be completely alone again?

752
01:42:23,691 --> 01:42:29,314
It's going to happen if you behave
you like that. Like crazy.

753
01:42:57,434 --> 01:43:00,850
Christian. Christian...

754
01:43:04,941 --> 01:43:08,606
You are right.
I have lied to you.

755
01:43:11,490 --> 01:43:13,815
I have never...

756
01:43:14,034 --> 01:43:16,441
I don't want to hear about it.

757
01:43:17,537 --> 01:43:19,577
I don't want to.

758
01:43:21,375 --> 01:43:25,075
- Everything must be as before.
- Yes.

759
01:43:25,295 --> 01:43:29,874
We must be like before.
Do you hear?

760
01:43:30,092 --> 01:43:32,797
We must be like before.

761
01:43:35,013 --> 01:43:37,255
Just like before.

762
01:43:43,439 --> 01:43:48,777
If you ask me, they have murdered
the king. When was the last time you saw him?

763
01:43:48,986 --> 01:43:53,198
He is not dead. They have blocked
him inside the dungeon.

764
01:44:01,707 --> 01:44:06,204
You were right. They are like
a bunch of rescue dogs.

765
01:44:12,176 --> 01:44:14,881
It happens at the court ball.

766
01:44:19,350 --> 01:44:21,557
In two days?

767
01:44:28,318 --> 01:44:32,398
- Christian would never...
- It is too late to waver now.

768
01:44:34,074 --> 01:44:37,110
Put your trust in Our Lord.

769
01:45:32,633 --> 01:45:34,959
Caroline?

770
01:45:35,178 --> 01:45:37,847
What's going on with you?

771
01:45:39,348 --> 01:45:42,184
Why do you have
didn't get dressed?

772
01:45:42,393 --> 01:45:46,605
- I'm not in the mood for prom.
- But we will have to.

773
01:46:03,790 --> 01:46:06,032
You could leave.

774
01:46:08,795 --> 01:46:13,338
Take a position in Germany,
France, maybe even England.

775
01:46:14,176 --> 01:46:17,011
- I can't do that.
- Why?

776
01:46:18,096 --> 01:46:20,967
I could come and visit you.

777
01:46:21,183 --> 01:46:23,306
We could be free.

778
01:46:23,518 --> 01:46:26,270
And leave the country to the priests?

779
01:46:28,941 --> 01:46:32,773
I don't have much left
for Denmark at the moment.

780
01:46:32,986 --> 01:46:37,447
You're not yourself, Caroline.
Can't we talk about it later?

781
01:46:41,537 --> 01:46:44,158
I think I'll sleep alone tonight.

782
01:46:49,128 --> 01:46:52,912
Will you at least be nice
to put on a dress?

783
01:46:59,305 --> 01:47:01,630
They sent for me.

784
01:47:01,849 --> 01:47:06,013
Are you aware that Struensee will cut
further down on the military?

785
01:47:06,229 --> 01:47:08,268
I've heard rumours.

786
01:47:08,481 --> 01:47:12,693
The Norwegian seamen are in rebellion,
because their money is delayed.

787
01:47:12,902 --> 01:47:15,440
It's not just rumours.

788
01:47:16,531 --> 01:47:20,445
The next thing to be cut,
is the king's bodyguard.

789
01:47:23,788 --> 01:47:27,038
Unless we do something now.

790
01:47:28,877 --> 01:47:33,503
They have seen for themselves,
what happens here at court.

791
01:47:33,715 --> 01:47:37,582
And what is about to happen
with our country.

792
01:47:37,802 --> 01:47:42,014
It is time to choose whether you want to
be among those who allowed it to happen, -

793
01:47:42,224 --> 01:47:44,893
or those who acted.

794
01:47:47,479 --> 01:47:50,266
Rantzau, wake up.

795
01:47:53,944 --> 01:47:56,945
I see the bailiff has been here.

796
01:48:00,534 --> 01:48:03,820
And I wanted to get
my goods in France back?

797
01:48:08,751 --> 01:48:10,743
And a seat at the council?

798
01:48:10,961 --> 01:48:15,540
Yes, and the misunderstood collection
of your debt is corrected.

799
01:48:17,927 --> 01:48:21,841
- And he must be banished, nothing else?
- Yes.

800
01:48:27,520 --> 01:48:30,011
What the hell is that?

801
01:48:33,860 --> 01:48:37,276
It is the sound of a nation,
that is reborn.

802
01:48:46,623 --> 01:48:50,323
We want to see the king!
Death to the German!

803
01:48:50,543 --> 01:48:54,078
Death to the German!
Death to the German!

804
01:48:54,297 --> 01:48:58,626
Death to the German!
We want to see the king!

805
01:48:58,843 --> 01:49:01,085
We want to see the king!

806
01:49:01,304 --> 01:49:05,598
Death to the German!
Death to the German!

807
01:50:02,033 --> 01:50:04,571
- I can't.
- It will probably work.

808
01:50:04,786 --> 01:50:06,612
I can't.

809
01:50:06,829 --> 01:50:08,952
No...

810
01:50:09,165 --> 01:50:12,748
- No, no! I can't.
- You don't have to be afraid.

811
01:50:12,961 --> 01:50:16,793
- They just want to see you.
- No, I can't.

812
01:50:17,006 --> 01:50:20,007
- They kill me.
- No, they don't.

813
01:50:20,218 --> 01:50:23,883
Yes, they kill me.
They're killing me!

814
01:50:24,097 --> 01:50:28,011
- No one is going to kill you.
- No!

815
01:50:28,226 --> 01:50:30,764
- Christian...
- No!

816
01:50:32,939 --> 01:50:36,024
You are the king now.

817
01:50:36,234 --> 01:50:38,642
You have to take care of it.

818
01:51:03,971 --> 01:51:07,885
Take it easy! The king is on his way!
Step back!

819
01:51:19,695 --> 01:51:24,322
They're going home in a little while.
As soon as they start to freeze.

820
01:51:37,588 --> 01:51:39,830
Do you remember…

821
01:51:41,551 --> 01:51:44,042
... our first night?

822
01:51:47,557 --> 01:51:51,092
It feels as if we have
been unhappy ever since.

823
01:51:59,527 --> 01:52:02,232
I have been happy.

824
01:52:14,459 --> 01:52:17,033
Come up to me tonight.

825
01:52:26,305 --> 01:52:29,471
May I have the last dance of the evening?

826
01:52:33,479 --> 01:52:36,052
Of course.

827
01:53:05,970 --> 01:53:10,383
Death to the German!
We want to see the king!

828
01:53:13,937 --> 01:53:19,726
- Stay away! What is going on?
- Calm down. We will save your life.

829
01:53:19,943 --> 01:53:23,109
- Have they broken into the castle?
- It can't last long.

830
01:53:23,321 --> 01:53:27,900
The only way to stop this
is about to give them the German.

831
01:53:31,037 --> 01:53:33,707
I can't do that.

832
01:53:33,915 --> 01:53:37,000
- Your Majesty...
- I can't do that!

833
01:53:37,210 --> 01:53:39,784
I can't do that.

834
01:53:40,005 --> 01:53:42,959
Your Majesty...

835
01:53:43,175 --> 01:53:44,966
Rantzau.

836
01:53:45,177 --> 01:53:49,091
I have to tell you something
that has been bothering me for a long time.

837
01:53:49,306 --> 01:53:53,553
Struensee, Brandt and the queen
plans to kill you.

838
01:53:59,650 --> 01:54:02,319
I've heard them talk about it myself.

839
01:54:02,528 --> 01:54:04,402
No...

840
01:54:05,990 --> 01:54:08,741
I heard them planning it.

841
01:54:08,951 --> 01:54:12,652
I am Struensee's friend.
I have no reason to lie.

842
01:54:15,458 --> 01:54:18,874
That was why
Brandt bit my finger.

843
01:54:25,051 --> 01:54:28,336
Sign.
It's an arrest warrant.

844
01:54:30,139 --> 01:54:34,007
- I can't do that.
- Your Majesty...

845
01:54:34,227 --> 01:54:37,347
Listen. Listen to them out there.

846
01:54:41,234 --> 01:54:46,774
The people demand that you act.
Sign before it's too late.

847
01:54:49,784 --> 01:54:54,742
- I can't.
- They can. Sign. Come on.

848
01:54:56,916 --> 01:55:00,036
Sign before it's too late.

849
01:55:00,253 --> 01:55:02,460
- I can't.
- Write!

850
01:55:47,051 --> 01:55:50,883
Johann Friedrich Struensee,
you are under arrest for conspiracy -

851
01:55:51,097 --> 01:55:55,094
- against His Majesty the King
and the Danish people.

852
01:55:56,394 --> 01:56:01,981
- Now let's see what the king says.
- He has signed the arrest warrant.

853
01:56:02,191 --> 01:56:04,231
Take him.

854
01:56:19,501 --> 01:56:23,249
Shut up in the name of the king!

855
01:56:41,982 --> 01:56:45,814
Where is Christian?
Step aside.

856
01:56:46,028 --> 01:56:48,982
Step aside.
I want to see Christian.

857
01:56:49,198 --> 01:56:52,401
Caroline, it's over.

858
01:57:15,349 --> 01:57:18,801
I hope it's worth it.
They kill Johann.

859
01:57:19,020 --> 01:57:21,807
He is banished to Altona.

860
01:57:22,023 --> 01:57:24,229
You naive idiot.

861
01:57:29,489 --> 01:57:33,700
- Have you come to enjoy the view?
- Frederik stays here.

862
01:57:35,370 --> 01:57:38,489
- What?
- Take Louise because you are still breastfeeding.

863
01:57:38,706 --> 01:57:42,075
But the crown prince stays with his father.

864
01:57:42,293 --> 01:57:43,918
No.

865
01:57:45,463 --> 01:57:47,788
No, he can't.

866
01:57:49,259 --> 01:57:51,465
He stays with me.

867
01:57:55,432 --> 01:57:57,508
You don't touch him.

868
01:57:57,726 --> 01:58:01,558
Can't you hear what I'm saying?
Leave him alone!

869
01:58:24,461 --> 01:58:26,917
Julianne?

870
01:58:27,548 --> 01:58:30,465
You mustn't do that.

871
01:58:33,554 --> 01:58:37,967
Frederik, you don't have to be afraid.
Mother is coming back.

872
01:58:39,518 --> 01:58:42,223
Mother is coming back.

873
01:59:30,403 --> 01:59:34,448
We have come for
to hear your confession.

874
01:59:34,658 --> 01:59:37,861
I have nothing to confess.

875
01:59:40,205 --> 01:59:43,372
You seduced the queen
and conspired against the court -

876
01:59:43,583 --> 01:59:48,292
- with the intention of murdering the king
and lead Denmark in trouble.

877
01:59:51,300 --> 01:59:54,005
I have nothing to confess.

878
01:59:57,765 --> 02:00:02,059
You have done that illegally,
but there is a new cabinet now.

879
02:00:19,453 --> 02:00:23,914
- They sent for me.
- Anything new?

880
02:00:25,293 --> 02:00:28,626
Johann has admitted the affair.

881
02:00:28,838 --> 02:00:33,167
They have simply tortured him
for days, and then he gave in.

882
02:00:36,137 --> 02:00:38,924
I would advise you to confess as well.

883
02:00:40,850 --> 02:00:45,346
This is a prayer for Christian
about begging Johann and Brandt.

884
02:00:46,523 --> 02:00:49,892
Make sure he gets it personally.

885
02:01:05,333 --> 02:01:09,034
Doctor Struensee,
my name is M�nter.

886
02:01:17,012 --> 02:01:19,681
I know your father quite well.

887
02:01:23,477 --> 02:01:25,600
What do you want, priest?

888
02:01:27,314 --> 02:01:33,150
The king wants to thank you
and Brandt on the day of the execution.

889
02:01:38,826 --> 02:01:41,282
Looks like you're saved.

890
02:01:44,498 --> 02:01:47,867
But the cabinet
Want something in return.

891
02:01:48,085 --> 02:01:52,546
A statement that you have
erred in all your deeds.

892
02:01:52,757 --> 02:01:56,173
And that you seek
Almighty God's forgiveness.

893
02:01:58,763 --> 02:02:05,133
A statement you must dictate to me,
and which the cabinet will later publish.

894
02:02:17,907 --> 02:02:22,237
I have thought a lot about God
the last few days.

895
02:02:24,998 --> 02:02:28,034
It doesn't surprise me, my son.

896
02:02:34,091 --> 02:02:37,210
They are sure of
the execution is not today?

897
02:02:37,427 --> 02:02:40,631
Yes, I am completely sure of that.

898
02:02:42,849 --> 02:02:47,346
There has been noise from the castle square
all morning. Where are they going?

899
02:02:47,563 --> 02:02:50,848
I haven't heard anything
Your Majesty.

900
02:02:55,070 --> 02:02:59,946
I'm looking forward to seeing Struensee
face when I kiss him.

901
02:03:01,619 --> 02:03:04,026
Do you think he's mad at me?

902
02:03:04,246 --> 02:03:07,331
No. But why should he be?

903
02:03:07,541 --> 02:03:09,368
Yes.

904
02:03:17,802 --> 02:03:21,634
Who found out that the king must
did people beg at the last minute?

905
02:03:21,848 --> 02:03:25,430
It was less harrowing,
if you just got over it.

906
02:03:25,643 --> 02:03:30,982
It is a tradition. The people must
hail the merciful king.

907
02:03:32,317 --> 02:03:34,143
Yes.

908
02:03:53,964 --> 02:03:56,419
What is there?

909
02:03:58,218 --> 02:04:00,507
Nothing.

910
02:04:58,029 --> 02:04:59,772
Damn it!

911
02:05:02,784 --> 02:05:04,990
where is the king

912
02:06:00,384 --> 02:06:02,424
Satan!

913
02:06:04,638 --> 02:06:06,596
I am one of you.

914
02:06:08,225 --> 02:06:10,432
I am one of you!

915
02:06:10,644 --> 02:06:12,518
I am one of you!

916
02:06:12,730 --> 02:06:14,936
I am one of you!

917
02:08:19,985 --> 02:08:24,563
You promised nothing would happen
with him. That he should only be banished.

918
02:08:24,781 --> 02:08:29,324
- It must have been a slander.
- And my place on the council?

919
02:08:29,536 --> 02:08:34,198
I can't bear to hear any more of you.
They have received more than enough.

920
02:08:40,214 --> 02:08:45,041
Your Majesty, we are in safe hands
with the young crown prince.

921
02:08:45,260 --> 02:08:48,510
Just go out
and mother you with your negro.

922
02:09:04,196 --> 02:09:06,403
i love you

923
02:09:10,328 --> 02:09:12,901
I love you so much.

924
02:09:18,711 --> 02:09:21,119
See you again soon.

925
02:09:22,215 --> 02:09:24,540
I promise.

926
02:09:24,759 --> 02:09:29,385
I'm glad it was
Germany, I was exiled to. 

927
02:09:29,597 --> 02:09:33,975
Not far from where Johann
grew up and worked. 

928
02:09:36,062 --> 02:09:40,558
And at my new house in Celle
I was met by an old friend. 

929
02:09:44,404 --> 02:09:50,158
I have lived here for five years now. 
In spite of the fact that I commended them, -

930
02:09:50,368 --> 02:09:55,280
- the court keeps me under surveillance
and will not let me leave Celle. 

931
02:10:01,004 --> 02:10:07,043
The reason I am writing now is, 
that I have become seriously ill.

932
02:10:07,261 --> 02:10:13,513
I don't survive, but now I have
told what really happened. 

933
02:10:13,725 --> 02:10:18,304
They must first have it,
when they are old enough to understand.

934
02:10:18,522 --> 02:10:21,143
I'll probably take care of that.

935
02:11:15,997 --> 02:11:20,576
As you have seen with your own eyes, 
has Denmark fallen back decades -

936
02:11:20,794 --> 02:11:23,083
- after Johann's death. 

937
02:11:27,884 --> 02:11:34,386
While the rest of Europe is flourishing, 
has your country become a dark place -

938
02:11:34,599 --> 02:11:38,182
- guided by faith
and suspicion. 

939
02:11:45,068 --> 02:11:50,110
My dear children, I would like 
I could see you now. 

940
02:11:50,908 --> 02:11:53,066
Who have you become?

941
02:11:55,204 --> 02:11:59,451
Frederik, have you inherited
Christian's temperament?

942
02:12:00,543 --> 02:12:03,627
Louise, do you have Johann's eyes?

943
02:12:05,715 --> 02:12:10,341
Your Royal Highnesses,
I'm so glad you came.

944
02:12:30,698 --> 02:12:34,945
"My beloved children. You do not know me,
but I am your mother.

945
02:12:35,161 --> 02:12:38,744
I don't know what you think about me.
Maybe you hate me..."

946
02:12:38,957 --> 02:12:41,199
Frederick. 

947
02:12:41,418 --> 02:12:43,706
Louise Augusta. 

948
02:12:44,587 --> 02:12:48,502
You are Denmark's best hope
for a brighter future. 

949
02:12:49,885 --> 02:12:52,839
I know you will make me proud. 

950
02:12:55,390 --> 02:13:01,725
I love you very much. 
Your mother, Caroline Mathilde. 

951
02:13:22,293 --> 02:13:24,332
Sheep.

952
02:17:34,049 --> 02:17:37,133
