All language subtitles for 1998 - Le comte de Monte Cristo_ part 2 (Depardieu) [dx50-FRA]-spa

Good afternoon, Your Honor
I say, Your Highness, Your Grace.

My friend, I'm just a man
starving

BARBIZON INN

Use this

You are right

I must not allow my manners
betray my true identity

Since you worked for a count,
Teach me...

...the customs of the high society

A rich count like you
should never show that he is hungry

Very good

Can't I pour my own wine?

Yes, but in moderation. Thus

With great moderation and even
with a touch of disdain as if it were vinegar.

Laughter is allowed
Isn't it?

A true count laughs discreetly
as if coughing

High society people are destined to be bored to tears
to be bored to tears

What idiots!

Take your napkin. Just the corner
Delicately, like this

You are going to teach me good manners

Give me lessons...

...of behavior. Attitudes and habits

Teach me to be an asshole,
or pretend to be

Hello Beauchamp

Here is the latest edition.
All about today's trial

Death for Gervaise Rebuffet

But Villefort is quoting
this afternoon

He will ask for death and he will get it,
as always

And tomorrow Valentina will wear
her usual blue ribbons

Why not?

Miss de Villefort is captivating.

I met her a few times in Marseille
when she was visiting her grandmother

When do you have lunch?

- We are waiting for Monte Cristo
- For whom?

His Excellency,
the Count of Monte Cristo

This is the man who saved my life.
He barely gave me a chance to thank him

I am happy to do so today
before all of you

You never told me how you managed
to tear me away from my kidnappers

I negotiated, Viscount

Money buys everything.
Even a man's life.

Maximiliano Morrel de...

from Marseille, right?

Are you a fortune teller?

I heard your name from a friend
of mine, Lord Wilmore

He is your friend...

You are a business contact

Sometimes he advises me
about my fortune...

...which is considerable

Are you only interested in money?

My servants and I chased them with our scimitars...
with our scimitars...

...and the camels disappeared
behind the dunes

We returned to our tents and
under the starry desert sky.

...we share the most delicious
roasted sheep

You are an extraordinary storyteller
storyteller

I guess I should have been
have imprisoned me

Is that all?
Clearly you know nothing...

...from jail

What about you?

During the July Revolution I was...

The July Revolution? Forgive my ignorance
but I was away from France for so long

Three days of riots...

...who put Luis Felipe

on the throne

Beauchamp's newspaper joined the...

...with the rioters. He was arrested

like a common thief

I spent three days and nights in prison.
You can imagine what I endured...

for 72 hours

Without wishing to play down the importance of your
your ordeal...

...I knew someone who was sunk in the darkness of a dungeon...
in the darkness of a dungeon...

...for 175,200 hours

Goodness gracious! Tell us more

I will write an article

Yes, tell us

You are too cheerful and carefree.

...to understand despair

Do you think so?

What about two people

...whose love is frustrated?

Go to

I'd better tell you about the
Benghazi camel drivers

One day I got it into my head
to buy a white female camel

You conquered them.
They find you extraordinary

Even Beauchamp says
that Paris will be at your feet

I would ask your permission to retire

After meeting my parents
who want to express their gratitude

Especially my mother

Did you mention me?
What did you say?

She is anxious to meet you

Me too

My father loves horse racing

I can't see how anything can surpass
such a magnificent animal unless....

Unless?

Nothing

May I present the
Count of Monte Cristo?

Finally. I had given up hope
hope of meeting you

We owe you...

Nothing. What I did was very little

Anyone would have...

About

We drew the curtains because of the heat
but let me see you in the light

Please

Leave the curtains as they are

Bright light burns my eyes
I'm like an owl these days

The sun of the sands of the
Arabian desert...

...has damaged my eyesight

Did you travel in the East?

I lived there

For how long?

More than twenty years

- Fascinating place
- Yes, but also cruel

Yes, their tortures
are so sophisticated

In France also

Thank God we abolished torture

There are other means of
to make a man suffer

Less violent, no doubt...

but worse, since we can
we can prolong them...

for years

What a conversation! We are here

...to celebrate

Count, would you like a cup of coffee?

What is happening?

Are you ill, mother? You look so pale

It is nothing. Just the heat

This end-of-summer heat is sweltering

I hope you have chosen to live
on the banks of the Seine

The river is so refreshing

At least when he doesn't bring
its stench

Where are you living?

Hotel Monte Cristo

Which address?

An excellent address
that I have yet to find

Let it go, sir. I always lose anyway.
I only play to make Fernando happy.

Don't you like chess?

My wife believes that games
last forever

That is true.
I started one twenty years ago

Not finished?

It will soon be

In fact, my opponent is already
in checkmate, but he does not know it yet.

It's the best of the game

Go to

For the Count of Monte Cristo
by Mr. Bertuccio.

He is my assistant. Excuse me.
The Monceau Plain

Pardon?

You asked for my address
The Monceau Plain

It's almost in the field

Soledad

I am used to it

But you could mitigate it

...with a visit

Forgive me,
but I must go to court

- I must hear Villefort's presentation
- Villefort?

Did you leave Marseille?

You were transferred to Paris in...
How long ago?

Nearly twenty years

Already twenty years

- Would you like to listen to it?
- I couldn't bring myself to order it

I look forward to

...that your discomfort has passed

For God's sake, yes

Who is this Gervaise Rebuffet
who is on trial today?

An abortionist

But what does crime matter?
Justice is like Spanish bullfighting.

The bull is there only for
the glory of the bullfighter

This woman... What do I say 'woman'?
Does she still deserve...

...to be called a woman?

- This child murderer
- You can't say that

The word 'child' is wrong. I remind the
Court that the Rebuffet woman,

is not charged with infanticide

But of being an 'angel maker'.
A term too cute for her horrible crime

Gervaise Rebuffet...

has murdered children in the most
most repugnant form

It led them to death...

...in the womb of their mothers

This temple of life...

...that she profaned

The most sacred of asylums
that violated

How many times have you
savagely destroyed...

...which is for me, at least,
the most precious thing?

a child

Even if you had done it once
it would have been too often

The fact is that
when the guillotine strikes...

...will not make of you an angel

Because you belong in hell

If you want to attend the execution,
I can get...

...a pass for you.
But you'll have to be there early

It must be wonderful
to see justice at work

You have once again honored
your reputation

no great merit, you know

how I feel about
the children

Villefort. Procurator of the King

Excuse me,
I have to go get a document...

on an important issue

But, of course

- Who cleans here?
- Excuse me?

Who cleans the room?

Cleaners, I guess.
Why do you ask?

Don't you wonder why she cried?
Yes, to soften up the jury, but it didn't work.

I feel sorry for those who
must dry their tears

Dry quickly

The Castle of If

The most feared prison in the kingdom

When I was in Marseille
I sent people there

Why did you leave Marseille?
Didn't you like it?

Embarrassing question. But I will forget
my modesty and answer you

I was promoted

For services performed?

Of course

To whom?

What other cause could it serve?
cause could it serve?

Forgive me if I seem indiscreet.

This is the first time I have
I've met with a Procurator

Are you afraid? It is natural

- I am intrigued

You inflict such terrifying
sentences...

...don't you ever have doubts?

Doubts?

Regrets?

Defendants must have doubts

Not me.

No regrets?

Never.

Are you not afraid to stand before God
to be judged in your turn?

Good.

My conscience is clear

Mine too

I am not afraid of death

Unless you arrive too early

...and prevents me from completing
the great task I have set myself

A big task?

You will find it interesting.
It is to do justice

- You?
- Me

You cannot, Lord

It would be a great confusion if anyone could control
could control the judiciary. Not that you are just anyone

but justice is the job of the magistrates

Rest assured, I have no intention
to replace the justice of men

- No other
- Yes

Yes, there is

The one we are discussing now.
The righteousness of God

Please excuse me

Valentina, the Count of Monte Cristo

To what do I owe this surprise visit?

I just heard such unexpected news.
I don't know if...

You can speak in front of the Count

He plans to replace God.
God knows everything.

So nothing you say will surprise him

Is it true that Franz d'Epinay who was to serve another year in
another year in Algeria...

... will you be returning to Paris soon?

It is true that I used my contacts
to get him to come back soon

You are the first to know

that my daughter and Viscount
Franz dEpinay will soon be engaged

I would not want my presence to prevent
Miss de Villefort from expressing her delight

My apologies to the Count of Morcerf

What are you doing here?
young Morrel?

At your age, men prefer
taverns to the courts

- Are you in trouble?
- No

Not at all. At your service, Count

What is happening?

The worst. Franz dEpinay
back from Algeria

Care

Sir, I beg you. He is all I have.
Do not kill him

Have mercy on him.

- What did he mean?
- Mercy for his son who will die tomorrow

Don't let it make you sad

Welcome, sir

Your new home is beautiful.
Bertuccio has done very well

I made you travel far away.
I would hate to regret it

The only sad one is young Hassan

- Why?
- Because he can't see the sea

Tomorrow hire some workers to make a lagoon.
make a lagoon. I want it as big as possible

I want papyri growing on the banks
like those of Alexandria

...and blue water full of fish

As the Bible:
"God created the earth and the sea'

It is for the young Hassan that I tried to be God.
He misses the sea

This is very different from Marseille

You have thirty rooms here

The kitchen has a chef, a sauce specialist, a pastry chef and seven assistants
a pastry chef and seven assistants

Take note

My people will have one day off per week

A whole day? In Paris the custom...

In my house, people will live
under my rules

People will be amazed.

I hope so

I came to Paris to surprise, amaze, astonish,
amaze, fascinate and bewilder

Close the door

- You know who I am
- If you want me to know, yes

But if not...

Say my name, my real name

It's been so long since I've heard it

Are you sure you won't regret it?

Please...

Say it

Captain Edmundo Dantes
I am at your service

Captain Edmundo Dantes

Sounds so good

Dangerous too.
What if someone recognizes you?

The mask is perfect.
Even Villefort didn't know it

What about your voice?

Having ignored the cries
of Edmundo Dantes...

...Villefort could not recognize
the voice of Monte Cristo

Villefort maybe

But her?

Her?

Captain Dantes' former girlfriend

Mercedes is as beautiful as she was

Maybe more

Suffering can make people...

more beautiful

Did she suffer, even a little bit?

She seems so comfortable with this sumptuous life
for which she was not destined

The way she was running barefoot in the forest with her hair
in the forest with her hair down...

...like a little savage

Where has the midday sun gone?

How dark is the night over Paris!

Here the stars are
chandeliers of a theater...

...lanterns, carriages that illuminate
illuminate the streets

I need a woman

Would you like me to find one for you?

A woman to take to the theater...

...and riding in carriages. You gave me
the idea, if not the desire

I talk too much. It's an Italian defect

Isn't a beautiful woman essential for a
a rich foreigner on vacation in Paris?

Can I be credible without a woman?

I do not know your tastes

The only thing I demand...

...is that nothing about her
reminds me of Mercedes

I need a blonde

And more doll than wild

Their eyes will be blue

I might have an accent,
but not Spanish

And finally, she must not
be a countess

Nice day, isn't it?

My name is Bertuccio

- Can we talk?
- About what?

I found an interesting option

Baroness Caroline de Jouy-Maubert?
You call it an option?

Baroness? Perfect

Countess is no good.
But Baroness is fine.

It's my patron saint, bandit

Stop. You'll scare the horses.

My regards, Baroness.
And I am sorry

What a pity! You would have been perfect

Baron, how can a great banker
like you can be so shy?

Danglars. Everyone knows that
rail is the future

Mr. Arago disagrees and he is the greatest
physician of our times

He says that when your railroads...

...disappear in a tunnel
at 30km per hour...

...the pressure will kill passengers

Danglars Bank will not contribute
to such atrocities

I am an honest, scrupulous
and responsible

Who is talking about such a crazy speed?
The current one is 17km per hour...

Downhill only

I am in a meeting

The gentleman can't wait...

...more than ten minutes

Let him go, then

Count of Monte Cristo?
Never heard of him

I do

I heard that he is an Italian aristocrat....

I see. Another poor immigrant.

Napoleon wanted to invade Europe
Now we have been invaded

Wrong,

The fortune of this Monte Cristo
is reputed to be colossal

Absolutely colossal

Do you plan to entrust it to our bank?

That changes everything

Forgive me. We'll continue later

Naturally, your reputation
has reached my ears

It is an honor and a pleasure
to welcome you

Now to business.
How much do you think

invest?

No amount

I am not bringing you money

- I ask you
- To me?

Well, yes. Aren't you a banker?

Yes, of course

This letter from Thomson & French...

gives me unlimited credit
with your bank

Limited credit?
What does that mean?

I think it is quite clear

It means that during my stay in Paris, which is calculated to last a year..,
which is calculated to last a year...

...I can withdraw as much as I want

This is unheard of

If Thomson & French
brought me here,

...is because they trusted your
establishment

However, sir...

...if your bank does not have the
capacity to face this credit...

...I will report to Thomson & French
and take my business to another bank

Wait, don't be hasty

We cannot displease
Thomson & French...

...our largest correspondent in Europe

But the word "unlimited"

How much do you think
you will need?

Now? I would say...

I will be generous

- One million?
- One million?

It is considerable. But you come from
Thomson & French...

One million?

Do not thank me

It's huge, but we are a young bank
and we need to build our reputation

Six

Six what?

Six million

Six million francs?

To begin with

Six million?

I want 500,000 immediately

Half in gold. Half in banknotes

500,000 now?

Just as the words "unlimited credit
have a meaning...

...so does the word
"immediately"

You meet one of the richest men in the world...
the richest men in the world...

...and instead of filling up your coffers
empty them

You will be a laughing stock

You know nothing about high finance,
my dear

I am of no use to you.
Not even to give you a son

- You have reproached me enough
- I never asked for a son

- I would have loved a girl
- Don't be hypocritical

I know you wanted a son
to succeed you

Of course it saddens me to think
of the bank passing to strangers

Don't worry. Young Morcef will buy it

His father can afford such a toy

- The Morcef are not really unknown.
- How so?

It is good for a banker to be a friend
of a couple from France

Someone you had fun with
in Marseille

What fun?

Come to bed, Hermine.
We must go to the Jockey Club tomorrow

Will your Monte Cristo be there?

I guess so

Are you interested in careers?

I gave him his six million today

But before tomorrow you can't
buy a horse, train it, hire a...

Monte Cristo may be rich
but he is not God

Did Father Farias teach you chemistry?

It is a great credit to him because
we had no way of checking our formulas

Our laboratory was here

What will you do with all this?

First I will humiliate Morcef by beating him
in the Jockey Club race

- With which horse?
- Noiraud

You shall inscribe him as Pharaoh

A new name won't make it
faster

It will not last ten meters

You will put this down his throat

What is it, a tonic?

You hold an elixir capable of
of converting a simple spark,

into a shining star

Who is the owner of this Pharaoh?

An Englishman, Lord Wilmore

- Did you see him?
- He didn't come...

...on the run

Admirable. Defeated by
an invisible Englishman...

...whose horse looks like a skeleton

It was not your horse's fault

I'm sorry, I know how much this race meant
this race meant to you

Not just for me. Danglars bet 3,000 francs
on my horse

Villefort bet on me too
I was humiliated

Stop brushing it

- Tomorrow we will liquidate it
- But sir...

It is as it should be
To be defeated by a jackass....

- Take it to the slaughterhouse
- It's not fair

Not bad
Only Pharaoh was better

Get rid of him or I'll kill him myself.

I'm going out

Where to? It's almost time for dinner

You have ruined my appetite

Incredible

Shall we stop here, Countess?

We are leaving

Where to?

Anywhere. But drive fast
The air is stifling tonight

Certainly the Countess is beautiful

Clearly your father intervened
to bring Franz dEpinay back early,

...to hasten your marriage

This marriage will not take place

- It is you that I will marry
- Your father will not consent

He has ambitions for you,
I am too poor

You are not so poor
You don't own boats?

Bad luck has
hit our firm

Our ships have sunk one by one
I have only one left, the Pharaoh

Buy more

With what money?

I talked to Danglars about my plans...

Forget about it. We have an ally,
my grandfather

For him, Epinay is a cursed name.
He will want to prevent me from carrying it

What can you do?

Your love for Mr. Noirtier makes you forget that he is paralyzed and cannot speak.
that he is paralyzed and cannot speak

He makes himself understood by blinking

My last chance is Monte Cristo.
It is rich and generous

I sympathize with him
Maybe he'll lend me the money....

He doesn't. His wealth is too noisy
to be totally honest

My father has ordered an investigation

Beware. Don't commit yourself to a man
who may soon be arrested

In a different way,
Madame de la Richardais is not bad either

Who is it?

You sent me on a mission
to find you...

a mistress. Let's talk frankly

Your future lover... I mean
your potential future lover, is 31 years old

Camille de la Richardais is blonde
and very virtuous

Oh. The virtue of a woman...

- She is very faithful
- What do we do with her husband?

No, she is faithful to the memory of
her husband. She is a widow

- At 31?
- A duel gone wrong

He is an angel locked up in his house
and only comes out on Fridays to confess

Let's go see this angel

Domimus vobiscum dear brother

How did you get in?

The door was open.
All is well in the house of the Lord

Your Friday penitent,
Madame de la Richardais

- I am her uncle
- Is the dear child's uncle a priest?

- A Jesuit

Can I replace you to
hear your confession?

Of course

I never know at what time your niece
comes to reconcile with the Lord...

and with my rheumatism, waiting
in this damp church...

It is agreed

Go and read your book by the fire.

Thank you, my dear brother

If you are bored waiting for your niece
you will find some books here

I don't know where to put them

I particularly recommend

...this monograph.
It is written in Varaha el Boar...

...in the Hindu tradition in accordance
with its hyperbolic origins

It is entertaining. You will see

You also have the newspaper
"El Mensajero".

I will gladly consult the year 1815

It was the year I was ordained

"The mystery of the assassination of
General d'Epinay

"Suspicions first hovered around
Mr. Noirtier of rue Coq-Heron....

"Epinay had sworn to arrest the
ex-Emperor Napoleon....

"...to ever return to France."

Farias was right. This was
the subject of the letter from the Island of Elba

Villefort thought I would read the letter.

He sent me to jail, killing
two birds with one stone

He protected his father and
did the monarchy a favor

A favor that was well rewarded

Forgive me for I have sinned

You are not alone

Good morning, Your Honor

So, Boville...

how is the investigation progressing?

With caution, Sir

We must not raise
Monte Cristo's suspicions.

I'm gathering all the details I can
details I can

Whose?

My agents have identified a man
man who seems to know him well

A Jesuit named Busoni

See you tonight

A priest? Beware of priests

The Crown Procurator only answers to the King.
to the King. Priests answer to God

Everyone knows that God is just an idea

We must be careful that our ideas do not
do not reach us

You won't absolve me, will you?

I know that the sin of greed that I commit
in my dreams is abominable

But I can't resist

It is not a sin

You love a roast lamb, eel fricassee

you cannot resist a dozen oysters

you weep with joy at a grilled sausage or a
or a cherry cream, so what?

Who the hell, if I may,
do you think is God? He's not a spoilsport.

He put so much beauty in the world.....
You can't be sad or so narrow-minded

Naturally he is interested in your soul

But you are not really interested
in what you put in your mouth

Especially in such a beautiful mouth

Father!

Sorry to bother you

I am not here for money. All I ask
is that you talk to Baron Danglars...

...to reconsider your position

It will, son. I assure you

We will ask dear Mr. Danglars to reconsider many things
to reconsider many things

It is late. You must prepare

I forgot. Every night is a party for you
You are so lucky

What is it tonight? The opera?

Tonight, game

You're risking a lot in that game.
What if Boville arrests you?

To arrest me, you would have to know
to know who I am

What if he recognizes you?

Because did you ever inspect
the Castle of If?

If Mercedes didn't recognize me,
Boville won't

She is a woman in love

A policeman is different

A woman in love?

If she had loved Edmundo,
she would not have married Ferdinand

So you want to know who is
the Count of Monte Cristo?

Who is it really?

Assuming you know

The Count...

...is one of my penitents

Interesting. Extremely interesting

I am bound by the seal of confession

Very annoying

But I can reveal one thing

Excellent

One word will suffice. That man

...is the devil

I don't really believe in the devil

Are you shocked?

No, but you surprise me.
I thought you had met them

With the devil?

With the damned.
Have you never descended into hell?

When you used to make your rounds in the prisons,
don't you remember the screams...

the complaints, the requests for help?
Do you have such a short memory?

How do you know these things?

I was one of those condemned

Your name?

Abate Farias

Faria? That reminds me of something

The Castle of If

You will pay for the Castle of If,
for your indifference to suffering

One day you will pay.
Not to me, but to God

God does not exist, I am
sure of that

Dinner is served

- What's up?
- We have planned

...watercress soup, fricassee and
rhubarb compote

But the stew is so popular in
Auteuil...

...the lady will have to make do
with the watercress and rhubarb

I'll pretend it's fasting, that's all.

The Count of Monte Cristo
begs you to forgive him...

for this audacious visit

Since he has been in Paris,
has heard of you every day

Fearing never to meet you at the
the Opera or at court,

How could I get out? I am a poor widow,
I had to sell my jewelry and my dresses

The poor count simply had to
meet you

So he decided to try an
oriental costume

To get closer to an unreachable person...

...one takes his caravan to his door

Madam, my caravan,
please forgive her humility

To be honest, I don't understand

But since all these delicious things
are waiting for us, shall we eat?

- Sophie, help us
- Don't worry

I have thought about the service as well

What is this? I can't wait to try it

Can I eat that black stuff in
in a metal container?

Caviar

The container is red

Don't you eat? At first some flavors
are disconcerting...

but then they are absolutely delicious

I devour you with my eyes, madam.
That's enough

To think that I was reduced
to watercress and rhubarb

- Why did you do this?
-I told you, to get to know you better

I am little enough to interest you. When
know who I am, you will be disappointed.

My only disappointment is that you have not
tasted the greenfinches

Bertuccio

Come on, get up

It is still dark

It's going to be a busy morning

Send Camille the best dressmaker,
hairdresser...

...and jeweler. Money doesn't matter,
I have unlimited credit

Do you mean that the dinner...

...was it adequate?

She was exquisite and so was she

Come on, a little more energy

The telegraph network has more than
than 534 stations...

...towers, pigeon lofts and
church steeples...

...creating a connection
between the 24 largest cities in France

As you can see, I am in
in charge of the last station before Paris

Progress is a great thing,
you should be proud to work here

Yeah, except I have to climb up there.
one of these days I'll break my neck

When the wind blows in the winter
through the tower,

...respiratory diseases
are the order of the day

I can imagine, but don't you get paid
you get paid for these risks?

- How much do you earn?
- 1000 francs

Of course I have lodging
and a plot of land to grow my vegetables.

But 1,000 francs is a starvation wage.

When I can no longer climb,
how will I live?

I assume that the director will
will pay you a pension

What a pension!

What if I offered you 25,000 francs?

It is a fortune.
What do you want in return?

Send a telegram that I will dictate to you

Impossible, I am only allowed to
transmit messages from another station

?30,000?

?35,000?

Come on, no more steps,
no more north wind

At least it's decent,
your telegram?

It's about justice, not decency.

Madame Sevenet, are you still
satisfied with that hat store?

I told you it was a good deal.

Dear Mr. Tucherer, making a fortune with straps and ropes?
with straps and ropes?

Hello, Beauchamp

A telegram has just arrived
to my newspaper

I thought:
"This is for Baron Danglars."

How much this time?

I have started to frequent a dancer,
she is absolutely adorable

But it's a little...

200 francs will be sufficient

It is perfectly

Except for his teeth. He has
hungry for money

You can extend to 500

She could also...

...walking the streets

They all do. Give me that telegram

"Exiled King Charles returns to Spain
Catalonia is at war

"Barcelona...

rebels in support of King Charles".

Spain slides into chaos

I have 500,000 in Spanish shares

When my newspaper publishes the news...

...will be worthless

I must have sold them by then. Thank you

Danglars. You have really mastered
the Stock Exchange

He started a run
selling his Spanish shares

What intuition! Who would have predicted
all this uprising in Spain?

And if King Charles appears...

...to take the throne from
Elizabeth II?

The information I received
leaves no room for doubt

Tonight, Carlos will cross
the Sierra de Guadarrama

It will make a triumphant entry
at the Escorial

Congratulations, Baron

In your haste I hope you have not sold all your
sold all your Spanish shares at a loss

- I did, but the loss was minimal
- Really?

Nothing compared to the misfortune
that will strike...

...to the poor unfortunate people who
still have their shares

I must speak to you

My dear Beauchamp.
Is your dancer happy?

It's not about her. I have the
latest edition of "The Messenger".

With a denial,
King Charles never left Bourges

What do you mean?

But then.

Then nothing. Charles is in Bourges
and Isabel II in Madrid

Spaniards still play castanets,
serene and peaceful under the sun

It's a joke. You had a telegram...

It was a fake

It seems that the telegrapher had
a fit of insanity

He escaped leaving his station
unattended. It's all here

Spanish stocks are going up

Buy

Are you worried about something?

Within an hour Spanish stocks will have recovered
will have recovered and probably doubled

its yesterday's value

With what I lost when I sold them and the loss of value due to
loss of value due to their increase...

...I will lose at least one
million francs

There is the rich Italian count

Monte Cristo is not Italian
It comes from the island of Malta

Are you sure? I heard it was Turkish

When I think that my father was
invited to the King's box

I wish I had been too.
Don't you, madam?

Valentine don't call me ma'am, I've
I have been your father's wife for quite a while...

As for us to act like friends, I know.

I saw Monte Cristo.
Do you already have your own box?

No. And since we are indebted to him
him for saving our son...

I invited him to share ours

The Huguenots. Music by Meyerbeer

Booklet by M. Scribe

Oh yes, The Huguenots. I can see that
this is going to be another hilarious evening

Do you have anything juicy to tell me?

I am responsible for your justice
not for your entertainment

Under my predecessors
people were having more fun

Today, France's only obsession
is to get rich

No government

...to the French, I raise fat cattle...

Always the same thick necks
and plump shoulders

Finally someone new

Who is that man in the Morcerf box?

A foreigner who has just come to Paris

I will be happy to present it to you when we
we have the results of the investigation

The research?

A simple formality. We just want to
find out where his enormous fortune comes from

...because fortune is incompatible
with virtue

Why are people always suspected
of people because of their fortune?

I am also rich

But you are the King

This is what they told Louis XVI.
Leave the Count of Monte Cristo alone

He is the guest of Morcerf

Not enough for you?
It is for me

Does the King know you?

Don't be jealous. You know me best

This is only the third time we have met

Too late. The tragedy is beginning

Thank you. I am so happy to be here

You deny me the opera, the
only night that the King goes

Losing a million is
like losing a loved one

One has the decency to stay at home

You think you are more important than
you are

Who cares about your million?

I will get it back

With this.
Lord Wilmore sent me this letter

Suggests investing in Zacatecas gold mines in Mexico
of Zacatecas in Mexico

at the source of the Aguanaval river

Do you know this Wilmore?

Not personally

Don't worry. Wilmore is one of
one of Thomson & French's largest shareholders

A bank in which we can have complete confidence

When you introduced me to the King
I was so confused

Why? The king is like any other man

You are not
Everyone is fascinated by you

And how do you see me?

With infinite gratitude

However, I return this to you

I was happy and proud to wear it
but it is too beautiful for me

This necklace is yours,
if you don't want it, sell it

And use the money to fix your roof

Why did my poor husband become so obsessed with it
that he went into debt to buy it?

I think he was proud to live
in the house of Saint-Merans

The Saint-Merans of Marseille?

- Do you know them?
- By name

It is an old and great family
that has always served the Crown loyally.

Helene de Saint-Meran
was the first wife of Villefort

That man with the cold look
in the King's box

Did Villefort live here?

He probably only used it
as a country house

Won't you come in to warm up
before returning to Paris?

Sophie must have lit a fire

It's a little early to play with fire

You are right, especially since today is Thursday
that today is Thursday

That means that tomorrow is Friday,
which is the day I go to confession

You will have less to confess if I do not give in to temptation...
yield to temptation...

...to enter

Were you going to steal?
I caught you red-handed, bandit.

Maybe you wanted to kill someone

No. I am not stupid enough to kill
the goose that lays the golden eggs

I came to talk business

With whom?

With the dirty guy who lives here

You have the wrong address

I have a secret
that's worth its weight in gold

Who do you think we are?

I will break your head

Leave it at

See?

Get up

Do you have a secret to sell?

- Interested?
- Tomorrow...

...go to the address I will give you

- You will be well paid
- An address?

- The police station?
- No. A priest

Busoni

Father Busoni, I know that you were
set a trap for you. Have mercy

in the name of Jesus. Do not send me...

to jail?

The last time we met I made you rich
with a diamond valued at 50,000 francs.

It should be enough
for a decent life

She tried to take it from me,
I had a knife handy...

Shut up! It's always the same story.
Lowliness, treason, infamy

You make me sick, all of you

Come on, Caderousse,
I hear you have a secret to sell

It's not for you, it's only good for
blackmail someone

Speak or I will deliver you to the
justice of men, while you wait for the justice of God.

I have to accuse...

...to a judge

- Well, to a Solicitor
- Vilefort?

Did you guess?

It does not matter. Continue to

He did what he wanted without being disturbed

What did you do?

Things priests don't do

Made love

With whom?

Hermine Danglars, a banker's wife

She had a child from that secret love

Without Danglars knowing about it?

Didn't you notice?

When the child was born, the lovers
lovers thought he was dead

It was good for them. No children,
no scandal

Villefort put the baby in a box and buried it in the garden at night.
buried him in the garden at night

He thought no one knew

But a passing thief
thought it was treasure

So when Villefort left...

found the child, brought him back to life...

...and raised it as his own

How do you know this?

The child was with me in
that prison in Toulon

His adoptive father had told him
about his birth. And Toussaint told me

Toussaint? I guess they found him on
All Saints' Day

But why was he in prison?

He visited some beautiful houses
uninvited

Interesting for the son of a Solicitor

- We escaped together
- How much?

It is worth a fortune, Villefort
and Mrs. Danglars would pay...

But I'm just a poor priest.
I won't buy your story, I'll rent it

How?

For 500 francs per month

For six months.
You and Toussaint must remain silent.

After that, do whatever you want to do.

Well my dear...

Have you heard it?

I received the same thing an hour ago

"Madame de la Richardais requests the pleasure of your company
pleasure of your company for lunch".

It is natural for me to invite you

He is poor and you are married to a banker.
banker. But she doesn't know me

He did not conceive of anyone.
Must have made a random list

She is a peasant woman whose husband did not have
time to refine or to get pregnant

Queen of Swords to the King of Hearts

Certainly not. I never play with the Queen
of Swords, it means death

I will not go to that luncheon

Seeing that house again is
more than I can bear

I am sure you understand

- But you will have to go
- Never

Could be a trap

How could this little Richardais
set a trap for us?

She is an innocent

Lunch in the countryside. Charming,

Full of people we don't know?

This Richardais nobody

Her husband did not even have
the Legion of Honor

You are wrong. We will meet everyone

...since we are the only ones who are invited

What does "we" mean?

About us. The people of Marseille.
The merry band of the old days

The only outsider will be Monte Cristo

The tables will be under a tent

What color?

White, the color of innocence

What about the menu?

Exactly the same preparation
in Marseille...

...for the engagement of
Edmundo and Mercedes

Same dishes, same wine, same flowers
We had mimosas

Why is this? You will be recognized

How can they know that I am
Edmundo Dantes?

Sometimes even I doubt it.
It's like a dream, a book...

...another life

In any case, this day had to come
come at some point

...it will be worse for them than for me...

I thought of something crazy

What is it?

- I don't know your first name
- My first name?

Yes, sir. Anatole, Charles, Edouard
or Paul. All men have a first name

What is yours? You never told me

Really?

Seriously, which one is it?

I could say Athanase

O Chrysande

The truth? My parents must have been careless
They forgot to give me a name

- It is horrible
- No, ma'am

It is wonderful.
Call me what you like

You say I can baptize you?

Yes, what name do you choose?

Guess, it begins with 'E'.

Why 'E'?

To match what you are

'E' for eccentric, extraordinary

'E' for exceptional, for expectation

By Eric, Ernesto, Etienne

O Edmundo

This is my choice

No, I am not visible

Don't you say anything?
Don't you like my dress?

You look stunning,
perhaps too dazzling for a lunch...

...with this little Richardais

Is she so charming that she arouses such affection in you?
she arouses such affection in you?

What's the matter? I just said "small"...

...to reinforce its insignificance

The other night, I heard you used...

...an extraordinary dress

I didn't see it, but the Gazette
of the ladies...

...published sketches

It had the grace of a coat rack

We don't have to go to this luncheon.
I'll send a footman with an apology.

We will go. The presence of Monte Cristo
will make it bearable

I'm sure we'll find it entertaining
It's so eccentric

The Order of St. Louis?

- You didn't say...
- King's Reward

I attach little importance to
such things

I am so proud of you

Are you impressed? Tell your mother to hurry
hurry, the carriage is coming soon

You look radiant

Isn't life wonderful?

Not the day for a scene

I'm not making a scene

But if you play the stock market,
use your own funds

Do you know how much your latest speculations
your latest speculations?

Do you never speculate?

I don't improvise
I use the smartest ones...

to the most informed advisors

Thanks to Monte Cristo, I am the only
French banker investing in Zacatecas.

So far it is not a big gold mine

Women are impatient creatures

Let them dig a little deeper
deeper, then you will see

Zacatecas is just the beginning

Monte Cristo convinced me to invest
one million in the breeding of Russian sturgeon.

That will be our greatest path
and we will have a party

They are arriving

- I'm so nervous
- There's no reason

If my husband could see me, his poor
Camille with such important guests

You look so solemn

Why would it be solemn? A picnic lunch
in the country is a joyous occasion

Come and see how much fun we will have.

They are spiced fish eggs
eaten with a touch of olive oil and pepper.

They are delicious on toast

Countess, look at this wonderful dish

For delicate palates, we have eel with celery
with celery, tomato and bitter oranges

I see that the Baron has noticed
our marinated sardines and red mullet

Try it, Baron

What a strange idea, this menu
Marseillaise

It is the Count's idea.
Don't you like it?

...something more original than pork and
pork and salmon pie

I thought you were being nostalgic.

Nostalgic.

To be nostalgic, I would have
to have known Marseille

- Don't you know her?
- I know her so well...

...as anyone who stops there before sailing...
sailing...

...to the East

Come and admire my pond.
The Count gave me...

...astonishing aquatic lilacs
of the imperial gardens...

...from Kyoto

I never go near ponds
I don't like mosquitoes

But don't allow me to deprive your other guests of that
other guests of that enchanting view

Your childhood must have been hell

- Why?
- Mosquitoes

I hear they are fierce in the south.

- You left Marseille for them?
- I left to follow my husband

Madame de la Richardais would do the same

Wherever you go, she will go

Do not deny it

To the opera your feelings
for her were very clear

I approve

You will not find a more beautiful
more beautiful

You were right
to fall in love

At twenty...

...one makes mistakes

Let's drink to your happiness

No, thank you.

Don't you want happiness?

Yes, I have the right to it as
anyone else, maybe more so

Then you reject your wine

If I want something, I serve myself

You lived in the East

Isn't it customary there
that those who share a meal...

...are friends forever?

By refusing the wine that I offer you....

...are you rejecting my friendship?

Why would I do that?

What would be the reason for this?

Thanks to the generosity of Count...

...I was able to brighten up this dreary house

I changed the curtains and furniture

- Except in the bedroom
- You can't show...

On the contrary, I am
I am sure you will be fascinated

Something terrible happened in here,
I dissuaded Camille from changing it.

why try to hide the past?

It always reappears, especially
when it is marked by horror

Not feeling well?

It's the heat. I think I'll go out, the
fresh air will do me good

- I will accompany you
- Your legal duties come before chivalry.

If there was a crime,
you must go and see

Words cannot describe it

In this bed where she so often
surrendered to her lover...

...imagine a woman lying on her back

Her hair sticking together with sweat

Twisted by the pain of childbirth

next to him, on a sheet, a baby

that neither moves nor cries

Was the baby dead?

Who knows?

Neither a doctor nor a midwife was called,
the birth was a complete secret

If the child is dead,
the scandal can be avoided

Man takes inert baby

He looks around for something that can be used as a coffin
that can be used as a coffin

See a small trunk. Places the child
child in it and closes the lid

All this denaturalized father
has to do is go to the garden

It has rained all night, the soil is loose, it is easy to dig a pit.
loose, it's easy to dig a pit

- What do you say to this, Villefort?
- What about me?

He is horrified

It is understandable. Such a monster deserves
a trial and severe punishment

From a brute, one could understand

But the Count says he was
an eminent person

What makes it more difficult to forgive

I'm sorry, I don't believe a word
of this fable...

...so cleverly told

I would be relieved if you were right

All old houses have their legends...

...invented by servants who were fired
for drunkenness and seeking revenge...

...by spreading slander and libel

Not at all

This story is true, I can prove it

I challenge you

You missed something,
the Count told us...

a chilling story. See

Come and listen to the rest at least

Careful with the head

I had the garden dug up

- And here...
- You didn't have the right to porofanar....

No, sir

I did not desecrate anything,
we did not find the remains of the child

As I said, it is a fable

But look at this

The cook playing the gravedigger?

I felt that I had to put back
what we had taken out

I know the law doesn't like people
people who destroy or burn...

...any evidence

It is empty

Certainly empty

Empty today. But was it empty
the night he was buried?

Surely not

Why bury an empty
empty trunk?

I agree. I believe there was
a child in the trunk

- Can you try it?
- I can't

- But you...
- Why me?

It's your job to test things

Even with so little to start with

If the child was not dead...

He was buried alive

And he may still be alive...

...today

Next to this vile couple...

...Gervaise Rebuffet who lost her head
was an angel

You must find and punish
the monsters...

...who committed such an unspeakable act

- Careful, it's hemlock
- I know it

It is poisonous, throw it away
and wash your hands carefully

Don't worry. I'm
used to this

Poisons can be controlled,
like everything else

Take hemlock, for example

Mixed with clay and vinegar
is perfect for beautiful hair

Mixed with salt
restores the shine of antique silver

You are an expert

My husband has often
chased poisoners

You learn fascinating facts
from the archives of a trial

How about this?

Do you know this?

Digitalis purpurea

Contains digitalin which
slows the heartbeat

Can cause death...

...in the right quantity

To be effective, it must be removed from
two-year-old plants

Flowers and death have always
have always gone hand in hand

They say that "garden" comes from
the old word for paradise

...which means the afterlife

The truth is that I am
terrified of death

Why play with it?

Therapy for torment

It reassures me to put death in jars,
make powders and creams from it

I feel in control,
is at my service

Except that death cannot be caged like a lion.
like a lion. Can you always control it?

Absolutely

From time to time I check
if it is obeying me

Experiment on slugs, caterpillars,
abandoned cats, pigeons...

So we have the cleanest
cleanest garden in Paris

Dear child,

stop worrying you like a little
little girl. For autumn...

...you may be married

Madame de Saint-Meran wrote to me,
Your grandmother will attend...

...to your wedding

I would love to see her, but
this marriage may not take place

Nothing can stop it now

Franz dEpinay and I finally agree
agree on everything

Discussed your dowry

But I emphasized that I was
entering the most integral family you can find in the world.

That's worth more than a huge fortune

You are like me. Marriages make me
cry more than funerals

Not to be disturbed

I thought about it all night

Her little face turning blue,
her little chest that wouldn't rise up

So he wasn't dead?

Apparently not

How could this be?

I am not a doctor

He must have been in that state
called deep lethargy

A type of sleep in which vital functions are suspended
vital functions are suspended

Did anyone see you bury the trunk, dig it up and you didn't
dug it up and you didn't notice anything?

Note what?

I saw you again, you were
so upset

A stranger took our son.
He brought him back to life, embraced him and took him away.

Is this the case?

Yes, that probably happened

What are you going to do now?

About what?

About what? But he's my boy, my son.
You must find him

Let's see. If I were still alive, I would be
in my twenties

With that information alone, do you want me to
me to find it?

In France, young people in their twenties
young people in their twenties

Of course a miracle
could lead me to him.

What would your reaction be?

Joy at meeting his real parents
real parents

You are married to a rich man

I'm not a pauper either

I am sure that greed
would prevail over the joy of reunion

He would ask us to account for

Could you count Danglars...

...that you gave to another man the son
that he always wanted from you?

"Give two million to this child
who is not yours, or he will say....

"...that I deceived you."

Why do you take men?

So they are. Cash registers

Believe me

Just as we have forgotten each other
of each other, forget this too

If you ever go to a church, don't
pray for the return of a ghost

You say that to a mother?

Don't exaggerate, you were
a mother as I am a father

By accident

You were indifferent

Why are you like this?

Is it because my stupid husband
is in a delicate situation?

Are you ashamed to be friends with
Danglars' wife?

Delicate' is an understatement.

your husband is close to bankruptcy

Let's hope it does not involve fraud

I would hate to have to charge him

Goodbye

- Think about your partner
- What partner?

First it was destroyed by your insistence
on making me your lover

And then yesterday...

...when they unearthed that horrible
trunk all covered in dirt

I have nothing left

Of course it fits you

A lot of money

At least for now

At our age that's all that matters
