Oh, yes, I can answer that.

- Yes.
- Good.

I'm a bachelor,
but not, I might add, a lonely one.

I spend a great deal of time abroad.

And as for my London life,
well, it amuses me...

39
00:04:06,079 --> 00:04:11,000
but it's not the sort of amusement
that one could suitably share with children.

40
00:04:12,377 --> 00:04:16,297
In brief, Miss Giddens,
I am a very selfish fellow...

41

Then the children
do not live with you?

No. They are at
my country estate in Bly.

50
00:04:41,406 --> 00:04:44,241
A rather large, rather lonely place.

51
00:04:44,326 --> 00:04:47,620
Still, I'm sure you'll agree with me,

- But not you, Miss Flora.

Now, you know you're not allowed
in the house with that toad or turtle...

or whatever it is.

it would be so beautiful.

Well, we do our best.

Though half the rooms are empty now -
locked and empty.

157
00:12:15,235 --> 00:12:18,195
All the same,
it's too big a job to keep clean.

158
00:12:19,239 --> 00:12:22,241
But what I always say is,
it's a heaven for children.

159
00:12:22,325 --> 00:12:24,159
Oh, yes, a heaven.

160
00:12:24,244 --> 00:12:26,870
And what an enchanting child she is.

161
00:12:26,955 --> 00:12:28,831
There's not another like her.

162
00:12:28,915 --> 00:12:32,167
Though, mind you, she has her ways.
You have your work cut out.

163
00:12:32,252 --> 00:12:33,794
I don't doubt.

164
00:12:33,878 --> 00:12:37,339
But she seems -
Well, she certainly looks angelic.

165
00:12:37,424 --> 00:12:38,924
Well, she is too.

166
00:12:39,008 --> 00:12:41,635
But she does like to wander,
to go off by herself.

167
00:12:41,719 --> 00:12:44,805
- We're always hunting her.
- Oh, yes. I heard you.

168
00:12:44,889 --> 00:12:48,475
Just now, as I was coming through
the garden, I heard you call her name.

169
00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:50,561
Oh, not me, miss.

170
00:12:50,645 --> 00:12:53,188
Perhaps it was Anna or Cook.

171
00:12:53,273 --> 00:12:54,857
Well, someone.

172
00:12:54,941 --> 00:12:57,901
Sit down, miss, and have your tea.

173
00:12:57,986 --> 00:13:01,989
Mmm. It'll be dark in here soon.

Why don't you come in, Miss Giddens?

This is a very old house.

And anyway, I saw the light
from your candle under the door.

- You should be asleep.
- I'm much too excited.

- By being home. By seeing Flora.

- Is it?

381
00:26:13,989 --> 00:26:15,740
Yes.

while you're lying awake?

about school?

Oh, no.

allowed to go back.

that it is a very serious matter...

Can't you? I can.

393

He'll say,
"Don't bother me. I'm too busy."

- Miles, that's not true.
- Isn't it?

You've met him, haven't you?
You know what he's like.

He doesn't care about me or Flora.

00:47:23,007 --> 00:47:26,301
Where shall I go,
for my lord is away?

678
00:47:27,678 --> 00:47:31,014
Whom shall I love
when the moon is arisen?

679
00:47:32,016 --> 00:47:36,353
Gone is my lord,
and the grave is his prison.

What shall I say
when my lord comes a-calling?

681
00:47:40,691 --> 00:47:44,903
What shall I say
when he knocks on my door?

682
00:47:44,987 --> 00:47:49,449
What shall I say
when his feet enter softly...

leaving the marks of his grave
on my floor?

684
00:47:53,829 --> 00:47:55,747
Enter, my lord.

685
00:47:55,831 --> 00:47:58,583
Come from your prison.

686
00:47:58,668 --> 00:48:01,503
Come from your grave...

Look at that.

690
00:48:18,145 --> 00:48:20,689
- What, miss?
- I was afraid for them.

691
00:48:20,773 --> 00:48:23,817
But what if he knows?
What if Miles knows?

692
00:48:23,901 --> 00:48:26,987
Knows what, Miss Giddens, dear?

693
00:48:27,071 --> 00:48:31,324
You think I'm imagining it, and yet just now
you yourself saw and heard Miles -

694
00:48:31,409 --> 00:48:33,368
Playing a game.

695
00:48:35,204 --> 00:48:37,998
You told me Quint and Miles
were always together.

696
00:48:38,082 --> 00:48:39,791
But Master Miles
wasn't to blame for that.

697
00:48:39,875 --> 00:48:42,210
- Yes, but couldn't you have stopped it?
- I wasn't in charge, miss.

698
00:48:42,295 --> 00:48:44,671
It wasn't for me to question
the master's arrangements.

699
00:48:44,755 --> 00:48:47,340
The master put Quint in charge here.

700
00:48:47,425 --> 00:48:51,928
Besides,
no one could go against Quint.

701
00:48:52,013 --> 00:48:54,014
You were afraid of him?

702
00:48:57,518 --> 00:48:59,686
But what of Miss Jessel?

703
00:48:59,770 --> 00:49:04,065
Couldn't she have done something?
Or was she afraid of him too?

704
00:49:04,150 --> 00:49:06,026
Not at first. At least -

705
00:49:06,110 --> 00:49:10,447
In the beginning, when she first came here,
she was always happy and smiling.

706
00:49:10,531 --> 00:49:12,741
Very fond of music she was...

707
00:49:12,825 --> 00:49:14,492
and dancing.

708
00:49:14,577 --> 00:49:18,955
She and Miss Flora used to dance together,
dance by the hour.

709
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:20,874
But she changed.

710
00:49:20,958 --> 00:49:22,459

I knew they'd be overexcited.

716
00:49:34,138 --> 00:49:35,722
- It's long past their bedtime.
- Yes.

But what did you mean
about Quint and Miss Jessel?

718
00:49:38,684 --> 00:49:41,519
Look, miss, they're dead, gone.

719
00:49:41,604 --> 00:49:45,106

of what's over and done with.

- No, dear. What?

He said that once, when he was on the lake,
he could see a hand waving on the bottom.

that's what she called it.

burned out and dry.

There was no cruelty
she wouldn't suffer.

797

If he struck her - Oh, yes,
and I've seen him knock her to the floor -

798
00:55:33,872 --> 00:55:38,334
she'd look at him as though
she wanted the weight of his hand.

No pride, no shame.

800
00:55:41,088 --> 00:55:43,756
Crawl to him on her hands and knees,
she would.

801
00:55:43,841 --> 00:55:48,094
And him laughing at her.
Such a savage laugh he had.

802
00:55:48,178 --> 00:55:52,348
Oh, it hurts me to remember.

803
00:55:52,433 --> 00:55:56,352
Bad she was, but no woman
could have suffered more.

804
00:55:58,063 --> 00:56:01,274
A person ought to keep quiet about it.

805
00:56:01,358 --> 00:56:03,526
You must tell me.

00:56:03,610 --> 00:56:08,156
Oh, miss, there's things
I've seen I - I'm ashamed to say.

811
00:56:23,047 --> 00:56:25,882
They didn't care that you saw them?

812
00:56:28,385 --> 00:56:30,303
And the children?

813
00:56:30,387 --> 00:56:35,683
I can't say, miss.
I-I don't know what the children saw.

814
00:56:35,768 --> 00:56:38,352
But they used to follow
Quint and Miss Jessel...

815
00:56:38,437 --> 00:56:40,980
trailing along behind
hand in hand, whispering.

816
00:56:41,065 --> 00:56:43,816
There was too much whispering
in this house, miss.

817
00:56:43,901 --> 00:56:46,194
Oh, yes, I can imagine.

818
00:56:47,321 --> 00:56:51,449
Yes, I can imagine what sort of things
they whispered about.

819
00:56:52,076 --> 00:56:54,827
Quint, Miles.

820
00:56:54,912 --> 00:56:56,662
I can hear them together.

821
00:56:56,747 --> 00:56:59,957
But there was nothing wrong
in Master Miles wanting to be with Quint.

822
00:57:00,042 --> 00:57:02,585
Quint taught him to ride
and took him walking.

823
00:57:02,669 --> 00:57:05,880
- The poor lad needed someone to -
- To corrupt him?

824
00:57:05,964 --> 00:57:08,341
But Master Miles
is a good boy, miss.

825
00:57:08,425 --> 00:57:11,010
- There's nothing wicked in him.
- Unless he's deceiving us.

826
00:57:11,095 --> 00:57:13,679
Unless they're both deceiving us.

827
00:57:13,764 --> 00:57:16,557
- The innocents.
- Innocents they are, miss.

828
00:57:16,642 --> 00:57:19,060
It's not fair.
You have no right to accuse them of -

829
00:57:19,144 --> 00:57:21,646
Oh, forgive me, Mrs. Grose.
I'm not accusing.

830
00:57:21,730 --> 00:57:26,984
I'm just trying to put it together,
to understand.

831
00:57:27,069 --> 00:57:29,946
Tell me, were the children happy?

832
00:57:30,030 --> 00:57:32,198
Oh, they seemed to be.
The same as now.

833
00:57:32,282 --> 00:57:36,202
But sometimes I used to wonder if
they really cared for them, those two...

834
00:57:36,286 --> 00:57:39,288
or if they weren't
just using them.

835
00:57:40,582 --> 00:57:43,126
Using them?

836
00:57:43,210 --> 00:57:46,045
Yes, of course they were...

837
00:57:46,130 --> 00:57:48,089
and still are.

838
00:57:49,466 --> 00:57:51,926
And in the end, what happened to her,
Miss Jessel?

839
00:57:52,010 --> 00:57:55,012
Oh, that was pitiful.

840
00:57:55,097 --> 00:57:59,308
When Quint was found,
she went into blackest mourning.

841
00:57:59,393 --> 00:58:02,145
Her, that should have
hated the man.

842
00:58:02,229 --> 00:58:05,439
She grieved till there was something
crazy in her eyes.

843
00:58:05,524 --> 00:58:08,109
Never slept. Never ate.

844
00:58:08,193 --> 00:58:11,779
I used to hear her wandering about
all over the house, sobbing.

845
00:58:12,906 --> 00:58:15,741
Couldn't go on.

846
00:58:15,826 --> 00:58:18,452
Finally she died.

And if you're planning another cruelty -

1181
01:25:07,394 --> 01:25:10,897
But to wake a child out of a bad dream,
is that a cruelty?

1182
01:25:10,981 --> 01:25:12,857
[Sighs]

1183
01:25:12,941 --> 01:25:14,525
If you were my age...

1184
01:25:14,610 --> 01:25:17,195
and had cared for
as many children as I have...

1185
01:25:17,279 --> 01:25:21,532
you'd know that waking a child can sometimes
be worse than any bad dream.

1186
01:25:21,617 --> 01:25:22,950
- No.
- It's the shock.

1187
01:25:23,494 --> 01:25:26,078
And then being suddenly deprived.

1188
01:25:26,163 --> 01:25:29,123
No, no, you're wrong.
You're talking nonsense.

1189
01:25:29,208 --> 01:25:30,792
As you say, miss.

1190
01:25:31,668 --> 01:25:34,170
You and Flora
will leave tomorrow.

1191
01:25:34,254 --> 01:25:37,590
It is my decision.
I shall send the servants away.

1192
01:25:37,674 --> 01:25:42,303
He put me in charge -
in sole charge, Mrs. Grose.

1193
01:25:42,387 --> 01:25:46,724
Tomorrow
I must be alone here with Miles.

1194
01:25:48,060 --> 01:25:50,937
Miss, may I ask what I am
to tell their uncle?

1195
01:25:53,148 --> 01:25:55,024
The truth.

1196
01:25:56,151 --> 01:25:58,194
The truth?

1197
01:25:59,613 --> 01:26:01,155
Yes, miss.

1198
01:26:02,324 --> 01:26:03,866
Thank you.

1199
01:26:20,467 --> 01:26:23,261
Mrs. Grose,
have you got my letter?

1200
01:26:23,345 --> 01:26:26,430
- What letter, miss?
- To their uncle. I left it on the desk.

1201
01:26:26,515 --> 01:26:28,516
Oh, I haven't touched it, miss.

1202
01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:30,768
Well, I wonder who -

1203
01:26:30,853 --> 01:26:33,771
Oh, of course. Miles.

1204
01:26:33,856 --> 01:26:36,607
- You're accusing him of stealing?
- Well, what matter?

1205
01:26:36,692 --> 01:26:40,027
It's just one thing more for us
to talk about when we're alone.

1206
01:26:41,196 --> 01:26:45,116
- Where is Master Miles?
- He went out early this morning.

1207
01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:47,451
But I shall wait for him.

1208
01:26:47,536 --> 01:26:49,203
He'll come to me.

1209
01:26:50,914 --> 01:26:55,376
Well, I-I suppose
Miss Flora and I had best be on our way.

1210
01:26:57,045 --> 01:26:58,963
Give her my love...

1211
01:26:59,047 --> 01:27:01,090
when she's better.

1212
01:27:01,174 --> 01:27:04,051
And, Mrs. Grose, please...

1213
01:27:04,136 --> 01:27:06,804
wait till you see Miles again...

1214
01:27:06,889 --> 01:27:08,890
before you judge me.

1215
01:27:08,974 --> 01:27:10,433
I can't judge you, miss.

1216
01:27:11,226 --> 01:27:13,394
A body can only judge themselves.

1217
01:27:16,315 --> 01:27:18,900
May God be with you, miss.

1218
01:27:21,403 --> 01:27:24,780
[Door Opens, Closes]

[Bird Squawking]

1224
01:29:40,375 --> 01:29:42,752
So, here you are.

1225
01:29:42,836 --> 01:29:46,213
I say, are we having tea in here?

1226
01:29:46,298 --> 01:29:49,717
- Yes, Miles.
- How very grand and grown-up.

1227
01:29:49,801 --> 01:29:54,472
Yes, and we can
talk together now, like adults.

1228
01:29:54,556 --> 01:29:56,766
Jolly nice, I call it.

1229
01:29:58,393 --> 01:30:01,437
I feel quite the master of the house.

1230
01:30:02,272 --> 01:30:04,315
Where are the servants?

1231
01:30:04,399 --> 01:30:06,108
They've gone home.

1232
01:30:06,193 --> 01:30:11,280
Oh, did you send them,
or did they take fright and run away?

1233
01:30:11,364 --> 01:30:12,782
What do you mean?

1234
01:30:12,866 --> 01:30:17,661
Well, you're afraid,
and perhaps you made them so.

1235
01:30:17,746 --> 01:30:21,457
And of what -
assuming you are right -

1236
01:30:21,541 --> 01:30:23,375
of what am I afraid, Miles?

1237
01:30:23,460 --> 01:30:28,005
I'm not a mind reader, my dear.
I've told you that before.

1238
01:30:28,090 --> 01:30:30,925
But I do sense things.

1239
01:30:31,760 --> 01:30:34,386
Don't worry.
There's a man in the house.

1240
01:30:35,388 --> 01:30:37,932
- Is there?
- Yes. Me.

1241
01:30:38,016 --> 01:30:39,433
I'll protect you.

1242
01:30:45,315 --> 01:30:48,067
[Chuckles]
I say, it is fun.

1243
01:30:48,777 --> 01:30:51,112
We've got the whole house
to ourselves.

1244
01:30:51,196 --> 01:30:55,157
More or less.
There are still the others.

1245
01:30:57,244 --> 01:30:59,995
Poor Flora.
Is she awfully ill?

1246
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:01,497
I mean, is it serious?

1247
01:31:02,165 --> 01:31:03,833
Has she gone to hospital?

1248
01:31:03,917 --> 01:31:06,377
No, just to London.

1249
01:31:06,461 --> 01:31:10,172
I think Bly
didn't agree with her anymore.

1250
01:31:10,257 --> 01:31:12,758
- This house upset her.
- Suddenly?

1251
01:31:12,843 --> 01:31:14,927
Oh, no, I had seen it coming on.

1252
01:31:15,011 --> 01:31:18,013
Did you?
Then why didn't I?

1253
01:31:18,098 --> 01:31:23,269
I love Flora, and I know what she feels
before she feels it herself.

1254
01:31:24,396 --> 01:31:26,647
She loved this house.

1255
01:31:27,816 --> 01:31:29,692
She was as happy here -

1256
01:31:30,485 --> 01:31:32,778
As happy as I am.

1257
01:31:32,863 --> 01:31:35,322
- Are you?
- What?

1258
01:31:35,407 --> 01:31:37,116
So very happy.

1259
01:31:40,078 --> 01:31:42,163
Are you, Miles?

1260
01:31:44,875 --> 01:31:47,168
If you'll excuse me.

1261
01:31:49,546 --> 01:31:51,338
- Miles, you haven't -
- [Door Closes]

1262
01:32:04,186 --> 01:32:08,105
Poor Flora. She must have been upset
to have forgotten Rupert.

1263
01:32:13,236 --> 01:32:16,447
Why did you want to
be alone with me?

1264
01:32:16,531 --> 01:32:18,782
I think you know very well.

1265
01:32:18,867 --> 01:32:20,409
What do I know?

1266
01:32:20,493 --> 01:32:25,206
Or rather, what is it
that you want to know?

1267
01:32:25,290 --> 01:32:29,752
Well, for one thing, why that night
when you were supposed to be in bed...

1268
01:32:29,836 --> 01:32:31,295
why were you in the garden?

1269
01:32:31,379 --> 01:32:32,713
I told you.

1270
01:32:32,797 --> 01:32:35,216
The real reason, Miles.

1271
01:32:36,343 --> 01:32:39,887
It's beyond me why you go on
asking a fellow questions...

1272
01:32:39,971 --> 01:32:43,349
when every time he answers you
you tell him it isn't true.

1273
01:32:43,433 --> 01:32:46,018
Because you are not telling the truth!

1274
01:32:46,102 --> 01:32:48,812
Don't shout.
Don't be so angry.

1275
01:32:48,897 --> 01:32:51,148
It does something to your face.

1276
01:32:51,233 --> 01:32:54,360
It makes you look ugly and cruel.

1277
01:32:54,444 --> 01:32:58,239
Miles. Miles, listen to me.

1278
01:32:58,323 --> 01:33:00,783
I'm not a cruel person.

1279
01:33:00,867 --> 01:33:03,535
I'm sometimes very foolish
and I make mistakes...

1280
01:33:03,620 --> 01:33:06,455
but I'm not cruel.

1281
01:33:06,539 --> 01:33:10,376
My father taught me
to love people and help them.

1282
01:33:10,460 --> 01:33:12,795
Help them even if
they refuse my help.

1283
01:33:12,879 --> 01:33:14,797
Even if it hurt them sometimes.

1284
01:33:14,881 --> 01:33:18,050
And that's the only reason I'm here
is to help you.

1285
01:33:18,134 --> 01:33:20,803
Whatever you've done,
I'm not against you.

1286
01:33:20,887 --> 01:33:23,931
- I don't think it's your fault.
- But I haven't done anything.

1287
01:33:24,015 --> 01:33:27,726
Then why were you
sent home from school?

1288
01:33:29,187 --> 01:33:30,771
It must be...

1289
01:33:32,107 --> 01:33:33,732
because I'm different.

1290
01:33:33,817 --> 01:33:38,320
But you aren't.
You're like any other boy.

1291
01:33:38,405 --> 01:33:41,365
Ah, now who isn't telling the truth?

1292
01:33:41,449 --> 01:33:45,995
If you really thought that,
we wouldn't be having these conversations.

1293
01:33:46,079 --> 01:33:49,748
No, my dear, you don't think
I'm like any other boy.

1294
01:33:49,833 --> 01:33:51,250
That's why you're afraid.

1295
01:33:52,627 --> 01:33:55,212
If I am, it's for you.

1296
01:33:55,297 --> 01:33:57,756
And I am afraid for you, Miles.

1297
01:33:57,841 --> 01:34:00,301
- If you don't tell me now -
- There's nothing.

1298
01:34:00,385 --> 01:34:03,178
Isn't there?
Why did you take my letter?

1299
01:34:03,263 --> 01:34:05,764
You did take it, didn't you?

1300
01:34:06,975 --> 01:34:08,684
Yes, I took it.

1301
01:34:08,768 --> 01:34:10,269
Why?

1302
01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:14,064
To see what you said about us.

1303
01:34:14,149 --> 01:34:16,734
- Us?
- [Rustling]

1304
01:34:16,818 --> 01:34:19,236
Well, about me.

1305
01:34:19,321 --> 01:34:21,947
- [Rustling]
- And what did you discover?

1306
01:34:22,490 --> 01:34:25,200
You thanked my uncle
for trusting you.

1307
01:34:25,285 --> 01:34:27,202
You apologized for troubling him...

1308
01:34:27,287 --> 01:34:29,705
for asking him to come down.

1309
01:34:29,789 --> 01:34:31,665
Go on, Miles.
What else did I say?

1310
01:34:32,417 --> 01:34:36,587
That's all I read. I heard footsteps.
I threw it on the fire.

1311
01:34:36,671 --> 01:34:39,465
And did you take other things?

1312
01:34:39,549 --> 01:34:41,633
Is that what you did at school?

1313
01:34:41,718 --> 01:34:43,635
No, I'm not a thief.

1314
01:34:43,720 --> 01:34:46,096
Then what did you do, Miles?

1315
01:34:46,181 --> 01:34:51,018
I - Well, I - I said things.

1316
01:34:55,023 --> 01:34:56,732
Yes, Miles?

1317
01:34:59,861 --> 01:35:02,529
Sometimes I hurt things.

1318
01:35:04,157 --> 01:35:06,867
And sometimes at night...

1319
01:35:06,951 --> 01:35:09,203
when everything was dark -

1320
01:35:10,997 --> 01:35:12,706
- What?
- They screamed.

1321
01:35:13,458 --> 01:35:15,542
The masters heard about it.

1322
01:35:16,961 --> 01:35:21,757
They said I frightened
the other boys.

1323
01:35:24,677 --> 01:35:26,595
And when...

1324
01:35:26,679 --> 01:35:31,183
did you first see
and hear of such things?

1325
01:35:31,267 --> 01:35:35,104
Why, I - I made them up.

1326
01:35:39,234 --> 01:35:41,443
Who taught them to you?

1327
01:35:41,528 --> 01:35:44,238
I told you,
they just came into my head.

1328
01:35:44,322 --> 01:35:46,573
What were they?

1329
01:35:46,658 --> 01:35:49,368
Shall I tell you
who taught them to you?

1330
01:35:49,452 --> 01:35:51,120
I won't ever again.
I promise.

1331
01:35:51,204 --> 01:35:53,956
Shall I tell you who taught you
the things you've done, the things you've said?

1332
01:35:54,040 --> 01:35:56,166
Shall I tell you his name?

1333
01:35:56,251 --> 01:35:59,211
You don't fool me.
I know why you keep on and on.

1334
01:35:59,295 --> 01:36:00,838
- [Gasps] Miles.
- It's because you're afraid.

1335
01:36:00,922 --> 01:36:02,714
You're afraid you might be mad.

1336
01:36:02,799 --> 01:36:06,468
So you keep on and on, trying to make me
admit something that isn't true.

1337
01:36:06,553 --> 01:36:08,929
Trying to frighten me
the way you frightened Flora.

1338
01:36:09,013 --> 01:36:11,515
- Miles. Please.
- But I'm not Flora. I'm no baby.

1339
01:36:11,599 --> 01:36:13,809
You think you can
run to my uncle with a lot of lies.

1340
01:36:13,893 --> 01:36:17,104
But he won't believe you,
not when I tell him what you are -

1341
01:36:17,188 --> 01:36:20,065
a damned hussy,
a damned dirty-minded hag!

1342
01:36:20,150 --> 01:36:21,567
- You never fooled us.
- Miles!

1343
01:36:21,651 --> 01:36:24,278
We always knew.
[Laughing]

1344
01:36:53,266 --> 01:36:56,226
- Miles?
- Forgive me.

1345
01:36:56,311 --> 01:36:59,771
Hush, darling, hush.

1346
01:36:59,856 --> 01:37:01,356
There.

1347
01:37:01,441 --> 01:37:03,484
- I didn't mean it.
- Oh.

1348
01:37:03,568 --> 01:37:05,986
It wasn't you.

Forgive me.

Oh, Miles. Dear Miles.

The man you've been meeting...

1360

His name, Miles.
Tell me his name!

1370
01:38:00,166 --> 01:38:03,710
He's here,

I have you.
