00:34:26,648 --> 00:34:30,486
that you realize that I love you
beyond the limits of imagination,

360
00:34:30,986 --> 00:34:33,238
that only you can please me.

361
00:34:36,784 --> 00:34:37,785
[song ends]

362
00:35:00,224 --> 00:35:03,227
[pensive music playing]

363
00:35:45,102 --> 00:35:48,105
[music turns ominous]

364
00:36:17,843 --> 00:36:19,845
[music crescendos, then stops]

365
00:36:54,212 --> 00:36:59,217
Are there limits to what I can tell you?

366
00:37:00,969 --> 00:37:02,095
There shouldn't be.

367
00:37:04,139 --> 00:37:07,059
Should I tell you something
at the risk of giving you personal pain?

368
00:37:09,144 --> 00:37:10,145
Yes.

369
00:37:17,319 --> 00:37:21,823
Your wife has taken a lover
named Hippolyte Charles.

370
00:37:33,710 --> 00:37:35,837
[laughing]

371
00:37:42,511 --> 00:37:44,680
-You expect me to believe this?
-Yes.

372
00:37:44,763 --> 00:37:46,807
[both laugh]

373
00:37:46,890 --> 00:37:49,226
That my wife would do this to me? Mm.

374
00:37:50,352 --> 00:37:51,353
Yes.

375
00:38:01,697 --> 00:38:04,116
No dessert for you. You may leave.

376
00:38:07,786 --> 00:38:09,287
I would never lie to you.

377
00:38:16,128 --> 00:38:18,130
[water splashing]

378
00:38:25,637 --> 00:38:26,888
How do you know this?

379
00:38:32,644 --> 00:38:34,688
Lucille is my lover.

380
00:38:35,647 --> 00:38:36,690
She writes to me.

381
00:38:38,025 --> 00:38:40,527
Joséphine's lady-in-waiting is your lover?

382
00:38:51,329 --> 00:38:53,832
Prepare two frigates
and two smaller vessels,

383
00:38:53,915 --> 00:38:55,333
in the greatest secrecy.

384
00:38:56,626 --> 00:38:58,045
I'm returning home.

385
00:38:58,128 --> 00:38:59,546
Napoleon...

386
00:39:00,422 --> 00:39:02,549
this will be seen as desertion.

387
00:39:05,052 --> 00:39:07,554
General Kléber will be informed
of his succession to command

388
00:39:07,637 --> 00:39:08,680
after I've left.

389
00:39:15,437 --> 00:39:18,148
[crowd cheering]

390
00:39:18,231 --> 00:39:20,358
[man] Napoleon the victorious!

391
00:39:26,114 --> 00:39:29,117
[poignant, pensive music playing]

392
00:40:02,109 --> 00:40:04,111
[dogs barking]

393
00:40:10,659 --> 00:40:11,827
Where's my wife?

394
00:40:11,910 --> 00:40:14,496
-She has left to greet you in Lyon.
-[dog yelps]

395
00:40:14,579 --> 00:40:16,832
Do not lie to me. Where is my wife?

396
00:40:16,915 --> 00:40:18,667
She left earlier today, general.

397
00:40:18,750 --> 00:40:20,710
-Lyon?
-Yes, sir.

398
00:40:20,794 --> 00:40:23,922
The entire world knows of my arrival
but not my wife?

399
00:40:30,512 --> 00:40:32,514
[thunder rumbling]

400
00:40:47,445 --> 00:40:49,114
[groaning]

401
00:40:54,953 --> 00:40:55,829
[groans]

402
00:41:04,379 --> 00:41:06,381
[chimes jingling]

403
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:08,842
[dogs barking]

404
00:41:14,306 --> 00:41:16,224
[Napoleon] What kind of creature are you?

405
00:41:19,394 --> 00:41:23,899
How could you care so little
for me and my feelings?

406
00:41:25,233 --> 00:41:28,528
-You are a selfish, little pig.
-No...

407
00:41:30,322 --> 00:41:32,407
You think so lowly of me?

408
00:41:33,575 --> 00:41:35,410
No. I don't.

409
00:41:35,493 --> 00:41:36,494
Then why?

410
00:41:39,289 --> 00:41:40,540
Because you're what?

411
00:41:41,791 --> 00:41:42,792
Say it.

412
00:41:46,630 --> 00:41:47,631
I'm sorry.

413
00:41:48,465 --> 00:41:49,591
That's not enough.

414
00:41:51,176 --> 00:41:53,011
What do you want me to say?

415
00:41:53,094 --> 00:41:58,183
I want you to say that I am
the most important thing in the world!

416
00:41:59,059 --> 00:42:01,144
-You are.
-Say it!

417
00:42:01,228 --> 00:42:07,484
You're the most important thing
in my life, in the world.

418
00:42:07,567 --> 00:42:10,153
-You--
-And without me, you are nothing.

419
00:42:10,237 --> 00:42:12,864
-I'm nothing.
-And you will do anything!

420
00:42:13,782 --> 00:42:15,200
I'll do anything.

421
00:42:18,662 --> 00:42:20,413
I'm not built like other men.

422
00:42:23,792 --> 00:42:26,211
And I'm not subject to petty insecurity.

423
00:42:31,675 --> 00:42:33,009
You're a beast.

424
00:42:37,806 --> 00:42:39,224
I feel sorry for you.

425
00:42:43,395 --> 00:42:44,771
You want to be great?

426
00:42:47,816 --> 00:42:48,650
Hm?

427
00:42:52,612 --> 00:42:55,073
You are nothing without me.

428
00:42:56,116 --> 00:42:57,534
Say it.

429
00:43:05,834 --> 00:43:07,002
Say it.

430
00:43:13,174 --> 00:43:18,680
You are just a brute
that is nothing without me.

431
00:43:19,973 --> 00:43:24,060
I am just a brute
that is nothing without you.

432
00:43:24,144 --> 00:43:24,978
Yes.

433
00:43:25,061 --> 00:43:26,646
You are nothing...

434
00:43:28,481 --> 00:43:31,901
without me or your mother.

435
00:43:31,985 --> 00:43:35,322
[gentle music playing]

436
00:43:35,405 --> 00:43:36,573
My mother...

437
00:43:51,379 --> 00:43:52,797
Did you have affairs?

438
00:43:55,258 --> 00:43:56,384
Of course I did.

439
00:44:03,641 --> 00:44:05,226
And did you love them?

440
00:44:06,227 --> 00:44:08,730
No. No, I did not.

441
00:44:15,028 --> 00:44:16,237
Were they pretty?

442
00:44:18,281 --> 00:44:20,325
Yes, some of them.

443
00:44:23,286 --> 00:44:24,829
They served their purpose.

444
00:44:26,915 --> 00:44:28,083
More than I do?

445
00:44:28,958 --> 00:44:32,796
They cried less.
That made them more attractive.

446
00:44:36,174 --> 00:44:37,175
Don't...

447
00:44:38,593 --> 00:44:41,096
[softly] Don't leave me.
Please don't leave me.

448
00:44:44,808 --> 00:44:46,267
Just don't leave me.

449
00:44:48,103 --> 00:44:51,272
You don't have to forgive me.
Just promise me you won't leave again.

450
00:44:54,651 --> 00:44:56,861
[music fades]

451
00:44:56,945 --> 00:45:00,698
What is it that made you desert
your troops in Egypt?

452
00:45:00,782 --> 00:45:01,616
Shh!

453
00:45:04,077 --> 00:45:05,120
Citizens...

454
00:45:07,455 --> 00:45:08,832
what country are we in?

455
00:45:12,502 --> 00:45:15,588
Because she doesn't resemble
the France that I left.

456
00:45:19,008 --> 00:45:22,512
Who should be responsible
for her governance while I'm away?

457
00:45:23,638 --> 00:45:25,974
Because it is not you, Citizen Gohier.

458
00:45:26,683 --> 00:45:27,767
And it is not you.

459
00:45:27,851 --> 00:45:31,563
It certainly is not you.
Although you're very good at scowling.

460
00:45:34,399 --> 00:45:36,484
It's not you, Barras.

461
00:45:36,568 --> 00:45:37,694
Or you, Talleyrand.

462
00:45:39,112 --> 00:45:40,196
Or you, Sieyès.

463
00:45:41,156 --> 00:45:42,365
So who?

464
00:45:44,117 --> 00:45:46,786
Who should be responsible?
Fouché, do you have any ideas?

465
00:45:48,121 --> 00:45:49,122
No?

466
00:45:51,291 --> 00:45:54,169
I have returned to France
to find her bankrupt.

467
00:45:55,545 --> 00:45:58,089
Printing money
that is spent within hours...

468
00:45:59,841 --> 00:46:02,093
the Austro-Russian overrun of Italy...

469
00:46:03,178 --> 00:46:05,638
the Anglo-Russian occupation of Holland,

470
00:46:06,222 --> 00:46:12,103
and what appears to be
the imminent invasion of France herself.

471
00:46:15,023 --> 00:46:18,526
And yet, you accuse me of desertion.

472
00:46:19,944 --> 00:46:23,364
Added to which the discovery
that my wife is a slut.

473
00:46:34,375 --> 00:46:35,210
[door slams]

474
00:46:36,503 --> 00:46:41,716
The only thing that every French citizen
can agree on is that you are our Caesar.

475
00:46:45,220 --> 00:46:46,221
What do you want?

476
00:46:48,806 --> 00:46:51,351
[laughs] Well...

477
00:46:53,937 --> 00:46:57,315
the people will accept my rule
if I have your support.

478
00:46:59,609 --> 00:47:04,364
Like you, though,
I believe that the Directory is corrupt.

479
00:47:05,949 --> 00:47:10,787
But together, we can save this country
from a restoration of the monarchy...

480
00:47:11,829 --> 00:47:14,082
and we can preserve
the ideals of the Revolution.

481
00:47:16,709 --> 00:47:20,547
And I think
that a seizure of power is possible...

482
00:47:21,881 --> 00:47:23,675
with your help, at the right time.

483
00:47:23,758 --> 00:47:26,928
And I think this is the right time.

484
00:47:27,762 --> 00:47:30,848
So you expect me to be your sword?

485
00:47:30,932 --> 00:47:32,934
[dogs barking outside]

486
00:47:36,896 --> 00:47:38,690
I expect that a coup d'état...

487
00:47:40,024 --> 00:47:41,901
well-timed, well-executed...

488
00:47:44,445 --> 00:47:47,615
could transfer power
into the hands of three consuls.

489
00:47:48,283 --> 00:47:49,701
Myself, Ducos...

490
00:47:52,287 --> 00:47:53,288
and you.

491
00:47:53,913 --> 00:47:54,914
[scoffs]

492
00:47:55,915 --> 00:47:58,209
I'm inviting you to the winning side.

493
00:47:58,293 --> 00:48:00,420
-[laughs]
-Hm?

494
00:48:00,503 --> 00:48:02,005
["Symphony No. 93 in D Major" playing]

495
00:48:02,088 --> 00:48:04,632
It's a simple letter of resignation
we would like you to--

496
00:48:04,716 --> 00:48:06,843
I am not signing anything.

497
00:48:06,926 --> 00:48:10,221
You can piss before I sign anything away!

498
00:48:10,305 --> 00:48:11,306
Gentlemen.

499
00:48:18,896 --> 00:48:20,106
[yells]

500
00:48:20,189 --> 00:48:21,691
Who's doing this?

501
00:48:22,984 --> 00:48:24,736
Good morning, Paul.

502
00:48:25,528 --> 00:48:26,362
[Paul] Hm?

503
00:48:27,238 --> 00:48:29,365
I'm going to make this
very simple for you.

504
00:48:29,991 --> 00:48:33,870
I have documents announcing
your resignation from the Council.

505
00:48:34,495 --> 00:48:37,540
You must retire
before you have your breakfast, please.

506
00:48:38,708 --> 00:48:42,920
Tell them I return with joy
to the ranks of simple citizen.

507
00:48:45,089 --> 00:48:46,090
I shall.

508
00:48:47,008 --> 00:48:50,011
["Symphony No. 93 in D Major" continues]

509
00:48:50,094 --> 00:48:51,179
[knocking on door]

510
00:48:51,262 --> 00:48:53,306
[woman]
There are some gentlemen here to see you.

511
00:48:54,098 --> 00:48:55,350
[Dumas] Citizen Moulin.

512
00:48:56,392 --> 00:48:58,895
We have a letter
of resignation for you to sign.

513
00:48:58,978 --> 00:49:01,606
-No, no, no. I am eating my breakfast.
-[Mrs. Moulin] No.

514
00:49:01,689 --> 00:49:04,484
I am enjoying a succulent breakfast.

515
00:49:04,567 --> 00:49:06,361
This is outrageous!

516
00:49:06,444 --> 00:49:08,613
I shall finish my breakfast
before you touch me!

517
00:49:08,696 --> 00:49:10,073
[Mrs. Moulin] No! [sobs]

518
00:49:10,156 --> 00:49:11,491
Enjoy your breakfast.

519
00:49:12,158 --> 00:49:13,159

00:49:17,455 --> 00:49:19,457

["Symphony No. 93 in D Major" continues]

[man 1] Director!

523
00:49:35,515 --> 00:49:37,892
I believe the time has come
to demand an explanation.

-[man 2] Hear, hear!
-[council chattering]

525
00:49:39,727 --> 00:49:44,816
Uh, this emergency session
is to draw a list of nominations

526
00:49:44,899 --> 00:49:49,779
for a new Directory
to deal with the threat--

527
00:49:49,862 --> 00:49:52,115
-[council chattering]
-The threat of the royalists.

528
00:49:52,198 --> 00:49:54,367
We are being asked to pass a resolution

529
00:49:54,450 --> 00:49:57,412
forming a provisional government
to three consuls:

530
00:49:58,287 --> 00:50:02,083
General Bonaparte
and Citizens Sieyès and Roger Ducos.

531
00:50:03,292 --> 00:50:05,586
Where are the five members
of the Directory?

532
00:50:05,670 --> 00:50:07,672
[council chattering]

533
00:50:07,755 --> 00:50:09,674
Have they magically disappeared?

534
00:50:10,258 --> 00:50:14,846
And we are here, surrounded by troops,
isolated far from Paris.

535
00:50:15,513 --> 00:50:16,514
Order. Order!

536
00:50:16,597 --> 00:50:19,434
[man 1]
This is becoming increasingly clear:

537
00:50:20,309 --> 00:50:23,312
That your brother, Napoleon Bonaparte,

of what has happened here, I will answer!

Right.

559
00:51:26,250 --> 00:51:30,797
We are being terrorized
by deputies armed with daggers.

560
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:34,300
And these madmen have outlawed themselves

561

on the liberty of this country!

566

I will kill my brother if he betrays
the freedom of the French people.

I am not ashamed to take the initiative.

I have, I think,
sufficiently proven to the whole world

that I do not fear the chances of war.

I have notified all foreign powers
of your accession to the Consul,

00:56:48,614 --> 00:56:52,284
I have addressed letters
to all diplomatic agents abroad,

621
00:56:52,368 --> 00:56:56,580
and I understand that you have made
friendly overtures of peace to England.

623
00:56:58,666 --> 00:57:01,377
What I need from you
is a better understanding

624
00:57:01,460 --> 00:57:03,879
of the Russian Tsar Alexander.

625
00:57:03,963 --> 00:57:07,341
Would you consider the tsar
an ally to England or France?

626
00:57:08,676 --> 00:57:12,763
Well, I would think that his trade
with England is more beneficial to him

627
00:57:12,847 --> 00:57:14,223
than his trade with France.

628
00:57:14,807 --> 00:57:16,100
And do you have a sense of...

629
00:57:16,892 --> 00:57:18,811
British influence in the Russian courts?

630
00:57:18,894 --> 00:57:21,522
I do not,
but I imagine it is quite robust.

631
00:57:22,773 --> 00:57:23,899
Robust?

632
00:57:28,863 --> 00:57:31,824
What kind of man is he? Describe him.

633
00:57:33,367 --> 00:57:34,577
Well, he's young.

634
00:57:36,912 --> 00:57:37,955
He's vain.

635
00:57:39,582 --> 00:57:41,500
He's popular, and he wishes to remain so.

636
00:57:41,584 --> 00:57:42,626
He's popular?

637
00:57:45,504 --> 00:57:46,589
Really?

638
00:57:46,672 --> 00:57:50,301
His greatest fear is to be killed
in his bed, like his father.

639

[laughs]

640
00:57:52,636 --> 00:57:56,974
This makes him dangerously fickle
to whoever last has his attention.

641
00:57:58,058 --> 00:58:01,228
So he needs an ally
that he can also call a friend.

I'm just trying to lose some money.

00:58:21,790 --> 00:58:22,625
Ah.

649
00:58:23,250 --> 00:58:25,461
Well, after this hand,
why don't you come and join me?

650
00:58:25,544 --> 00:58:27,046
I'm at my usual table.

651
00:58:27,129 --> 00:58:28,464
That's a lovely idea.

652
00:58:30,382 --> 00:58:31,383
Good evening.

653
00:58:32,676 --> 00:58:35,054
Mm. Did you hear?

654
00:58:36,805 --> 00:58:41,894
Your Majesty received a letter of peace
from the First Consul today.

655
00:58:43,562 --> 00:58:47,274
Monsieur Talleyrand, if I may be honest?

656
00:58:47,358 --> 00:58:50,027
-Of course.
-Austria's coalition with England

657
00:58:50,110 --> 00:58:53,072
is in such a strong position
against France,

658
00:58:53,155 --> 00:58:58,160
that these peace overtures
are clearly only for your handling

659
00:58:58,244 --> 00:59:00,663
-of French public opinion.
-[chuckles]

660
00:59:01,497 --> 00:59:02,623
Oh, my friend.

661
00:59:04,583 --> 00:59:06,794
-You know me so well.
-Hm.

662
00:59:07,503 --> 00:59:11,006
Yes, it is true,
it is public opinion Napoleon is after,

663
00:59:11,090 --> 00:59:14,093
but my warning to you
is that he's as hungry for it

664
00:59:14,176 --> 00:59:16,262
as any man in the history of the world.

665
00:59:16,345 --> 00:59:18,055
So my suggestion, with respect,

666
00:59:18,138 --> 00:59:22,017
would be to take
this little offering of peace from him.

667
00:59:24,895 --> 00:59:30,693
Or suffer the consequences
from a man bent on peace at any cost.

668
00:59:32,736 --> 00:59:35,990
The English ambassador, Lord Whitworth,
has arrived, Consul.

669
00:59:44,665 --> 00:59:48,043
Do not look at me as if you don't know
what I'm about to say.

670
00:59:49,628 --> 00:59:52,506
Are you aware of my letter of peace
to your king?

671
00:59:53,132 --> 00:59:54,216
I am not.

672
00:59:55,634 --> 00:59:57,052
Shall I repeat it?

673
00:59:58,304 --> 01:00:00,180
No, you may not.

674
01:00:00,848 --> 01:00:03,142
Take this as a warning to your king.

675
01:00:03,225 --> 01:00:05,894
I will keep you guessing and scared.

676
01:00:05,978 --> 01:00:08,147
You will watch your borders and your back,

677
01:00:08,230 --> 01:00:11,233
and your manners are bound,
sooner or later, to be French.

678
01:00:11,317 --> 01:00:13,569
I will offer no more letters of peace,

679
01:00:13,652 --> 01:00:18,198
and I will take the lack of a swift reply
as an act of disrespect!

680
01:00:18,282 --> 01:00:21,410
You think you're so great
because you have boats!

681
01:00:24,997 --> 01:00:28,083
'Tis a shame such a great man
should have no manners.

682
01:00:41,472 --> 01:00:42,473

683

Are you pleased?

684
01:00:48,604 --> 01:00:51,231
Are you about to tell me something
that will make me angry?

685
01:00:52,107 --> 01:00:53,567
Let's hope not.

686
01:00:53,650 --> 01:00:58,781
The European families think
nothing more of you than a Corsican thug.

687
01:00:58,864 --> 01:00:59,865
Therefore...

688
01:01:00,657 --> 01:01:04,495
I'm going to suggest something
that's been a long time arriving.

689
01:01:05,537 --> 01:01:10,209
I suggest that you abandon your role
as First Consul of France...

690
01:01:11,168 --> 01:01:15,714
in exchange
for the title "Victorious Consul."

691
01:01:17,591 --> 01:01:20,052
By another name, "king."

692
01:01:22,971 --> 01:01:23,972
What?

694
01:01:28,352 --> 01:01:30,062

-You feel that?
-What?

708
01:02:31,206 --> 01:02:33,292
Can you feel that? That's yours.

709
01:02:33,375 --> 01:02:36,044
That's yours. It's yours.

Oh? [laughs]

714
01:03:00,861 --> 01:03:01,862
Stop.

715
01:03:02,571 --> 01:03:04,198
Why aren't you pregnant?

716
01:03:06,492 --> 01:03:07,701
[Joséphine ] Hm.

717
01:03:08,410 --> 01:03:11,788
Is that a question,
or is that an accusation?

718
01:03:12,664 --> 01:03:13,499
[Napoleon] Hm.

719
01:03:15,834 --> 01:03:17,085
It was a question.

720
01:03:18,128 --> 01:03:19,213
[Joséphine grunts]

721
01:03:19,296 --> 01:03:20,839
Now it's an accusation.

722
01:03:24,384 --> 01:03:27,596
Well, I've seen Dr. Corvisart
and he has no answer.

723
01:03:27,679 --> 01:03:29,681
[chafing dish clinking]

724
01:03:31,642 --> 01:03:34,520
Only that I do
what Madame de Rémusat has done.

725
01:03:36,772 --> 01:03:37,773
[Napoleon] Which is?

726
01:03:39,274 --> 01:03:40,359
Which is...

727
01:03:42,694 --> 01:03:45,614
along with hopeful thinking
and a bit of red wine,

728
01:03:45,697 --> 01:03:48,659
he suggested
I take the waters at Aix-la-Chapelle.

729
01:03:51,995 --> 01:03:53,288
And why haven't you?

730
01:03:54,623 --> 01:03:57,459
As wife of the First Consul,
I haven't found the time.

731
01:03:57,543 --> 01:04:00,504
I spend many hours cleaning up after you.

732
01:04:05,008 --> 01:04:06,051
Find the time.

733
01:04:08,887 --> 01:04:11,557
I don't need to explain to you
the importance of this, do I?

734
01:04:12,558 --> 01:04:13,976
What, you want an heir?

735
01:04:14,726 --> 01:04:16,061
I want one now.

736
01:04:19,439 --> 01:04:21,441
[laughs softly]

737
01:04:22,609 --> 01:04:25,612
[Napoleon snorting
and Joséphine laughing]

738
01:04:34,037 --> 01:04:35,497
Oh, my God.

739
01:04:36,582 --> 01:04:37,499
[laughing]

740
01:04:40,877 --> 01:04:44,881

741
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:20,042
[music fades]

742
01:05:24,296 --> 01:05:27,049
May God affirm you on His throne...

743
01:05:28,300 --> 01:05:33,305
and Christ give you to rule with Him
in His eternal kingdom.

744
01:05:52,991 --> 01:05:53,825
[audience gasps]

745
01:05:59,373 --> 01:06:02,668
I found the crown of France in the gutter.

746
01:06:04,628 --> 01:06:09,132
I picked it up with the tip of my sword
and cleaned it...

747
01:06:11,093 --> 01:06:13,220
and place it atop my own head.

748
01:06:39,329 --> 01:06:45,043
The most glorious,
the most august Napoleon,

749
01:06:45,127 --> 01:06:47,629
emperor of the French,

750
01:06:47,713 --> 01:06:51,341
is crowned and enthroned!

751
01:06:51,883 --> 01:06:53,719
Long live the emperor!

752
01:06:53,802 --> 01:06:56,304
[all] Long live the emperor!

753
01:06:56,888 --> 01:06:58,807
Long live the emperor!

Schöpfung Singt Dem Herren Alle Stimmen"]

755

[scraping and tapping]

756
01:07:38,722 --> 01:07:40,640
[Napoleon] I do not support this idea.

757
01:07:40,724 --> 01:07:43,393
You suggest divorce after years of debate.

758
01:07:43,477 --> 01:07:45,520
You can see that it has me divided.

759
01:07:49,441 --> 01:07:53,153
I am not ambitious.
I've never declared war with anyone.

760
01:07:56,823 --> 01:07:57,824
No.

761
01:08:00,035 --> 01:08:04,498
You are the greatest leader
in the history of the world

762
01:08:04,581 --> 01:08:06,541
and the world's only chance at peace.

763
01:08:07,292 --> 01:08:08,168
[sighs]

764
01:08:11,087 --> 01:08:14,174
The security of the empire
and peace in the world

765
01:08:14,257 --> 01:08:15,717
depends upon an heir.

766
01:08:19,554 --> 01:08:22,557
[indistinct chatter]

767
01:08:23,183 --> 01:08:24,392
[Joséphine] It was an option.

768
01:08:26,311 --> 01:08:27,854
And I said it at the time.

769
01:08:35,070 --> 01:08:36,613
[Napoleon] Are you enjoying yourself?

770
01:08:38,740 --> 01:08:41,535
I'm going to war to defend our people,

771
01:08:42,327 --> 01:08:44,830
and my wife cannot provide me an heir.

772
01:08:48,458 --> 01:08:51,211
If you do not bear me a child tonight...

773
01:08:52,838 --> 01:08:54,506
there will be a divorce.

774
01:08:56,883 --> 01:09:00,345
Hasn't been enough lovemaking
in this home to bear a child.

775
01:09:01,346 --> 01:09:02,556
Yes, there has.

776
01:09:04,599 --> 01:09:07,686
There have been years of it. Years.

777
01:09:09,187 --> 01:09:10,689
And with more than just me.

778
01:09:12,107 --> 01:09:13,316
-And still...
-[sighs]

779
01:09:14,568 --> 01:09:15,569
you are empty.

780
01:09:15,652 --> 01:09:17,320
And you're fat.

781
01:09:18,780 --> 01:09:22,158
I enjoy my meals. I do.

782
01:09:23,118 --> 01:09:24,911
Destiny has brought me here.

783
01:09:24,995 --> 01:09:27,497
Destiny has brought me this lamb chop.

784
01:09:52,647 --> 01:09:53,857
Joséphine.

785
01:09:56,484 --> 01:09:57,485
[Joséphine sniffles]

786
01:09:58,320 --> 01:09:59,362
Come, then.

787
01:10:00,947 --> 01:10:01,948
Come.

788
01:10:08,580 --> 01:10:12,417
I love your talents and your taste.

789
01:10:14,669 --> 01:10:17,589
And while I'm away,
I will miss your grace.

790
01:10:18,131 --> 01:10:19,424
And your dignity.

791
01:10:20,675 --> 01:10:22,594
And I will come back to you.

792
01:10:36,399 --> 01:10:39,402
-[ominous music playing]
-[soldiers speaking indistinctly]

793
01:10:56,586 --> 01:10:58,713
To today's victory. Hm?

794
01:10:59,297 --> 01:11:00,966
Look, I'm always here for you, Francis.

795
01:11:02,467 --> 01:11:05,553
But I must admit, I'm overwhelmed
with the excitement of the battlefield.

796
01:11:06,221 --> 01:11:08,473
I should not deceive you, Alexander.

797
01:11:08,556 --> 01:11:11,726
This battle against him
will be brutal and terrifying.

798
01:11:21,194 --> 01:11:24,280
[music turns tense]

799
01:11:28,827 --> 01:11:30,829
[soldiers yelling indistinctly]

800
01:11:32,831 --> 01:11:34,958
[grunting and chattering]

801
01:11:37,377 --> 01:11:38,378
Come on!

802
01:11:38,962 --> 01:11:40,338
Get in defensive position!

803
01:11:50,682 --> 01:11:52,600
[Napoleon] My good wife, Joséphine,

804
01:11:53,351 --> 01:11:54,936
my God, it's cold here.

805
01:11:55,937 --> 01:11:57,272
I miss your warmth.

806
01:11:58,398 --> 01:12:02,318
On this day, we celebrate
the first anniversary of our coronation.

807
01:12:03,945 --> 01:12:06,823
My previous ally has now joined
with my enemy.

808
01:12:07,699 --> 01:12:11,703
The Russian Tsar Alexander joined forces
with the prince of Austria.

809
01:12:12,579 --> 01:12:14,748
I have heard
that he's been studying the art of war

810
01:12:14,831 --> 01:12:17,292
and trying to emulate my battle tactics.

811
01:12:17,375 --> 01:12:18,209
More fires.

812
01:12:18,293 --> 01:12:19,627
He tries to copy me,

813
01:12:20,253 --> 01:12:23,590
but he is a little boy
who will make a terrible mistake.

814
01:12:24,174 --> 01:12:27,052
I am certain I will bring
the laurels of another glorious victory

815
01:12:27,135 --> 01:12:28,219
to my army today.

816
01:12:29,220 --> 01:12:31,347
Yours, Napoleon.

817
01:12:32,015 --> 01:12:34,017
[soldiers cheering]

818
01:12:46,905 --> 01:12:49,783
Hey, tie it from the back.
Peg that corner to the ground.

819
01:12:49,866 --> 01:12:50,867
That's it.

820
01:12:53,661 --> 01:12:56,664
[tense, pensive music playing]

821
01:12:58,625 --> 01:12:59,626
Fuck.

-Your Majesty.
-Hm?

827
01:13:58,017 --> 01:13:59,102
We are discovered.

828
01:14:01,146 --> 01:14:02,147
Good.

829
01:14:03,565 --> 01:14:04,816
Tell the men to rest.

830
01:14:05,316 --> 01:14:08,319

[soldier] Ready!

851
01:15:49,295 --> 01:15:52,966

they have the higher ground.

Fire at will!

Send in the infantry.

860
01:17:01,284 --> 01:17:03,745
Take their position on the higher ground.
At the double.

-Thank you.
-You must forgive me.

This has been my only palace
for the last two months.

Seems very agreeable.
You make excellent use of it.

Well, we do what we can
on the battlefield.

It's nice to finally meet another emperor.

894
01:22:07,590 --> 01:22:09,717
Where, may I ask, is Alexander?

895
01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:12,303
Are we waiting for his arrival
before we get started?

896
01:22:12,386 --> 01:22:16,098
I do not believe he will be joining us.

897
01:22:16,182 --> 01:22:18,434
-He's beside himself with rage.
-[sighs]

898
01:22:20,978 --> 01:22:25,775
I realize I must compliment you
for making me commit an enormous error.

899
01:22:26,359 --> 01:22:28,235
-An error?
-Yes.

900
01:22:29,320 --> 01:22:31,197
What error have you made?

901
01:22:31,198 --> 01:23:22,590
GOPIHD

902
01:22:32,615 --> 01:22:36,452
To be speaking with you here
and accepting this invitation for peace,

903
01:22:36,535 --> 01:22:38,579
I have not followed up my victory.

904
01:22:39,789 --> 01:22:43,584
I could have taken the whole Russian
and Austrian army prisoners.

905
01:22:46,003 --> 01:22:47,004
Yes.

906
01:22:47,797 --> 01:22:49,882
But after all, there will be less tears.

907
01:22:51,300 --> 01:22:55,680
And I know you will remember
this gesture of kindness. Yes?

908
01:22:57,014 --> 01:22:58,015
Thank you.

909
01:23:02,812 --> 01:23:03,813
Toast?

910
01:23:07,483 --> 01:23:10,486
[lilting orchestral music playing]

911
01:23:12,780 --> 01:23:16,409
To friendship, a glorious peace...

912
01:23:17,368 --> 01:23:19,370
and the best interests of Europe.

913
01:23:25,626 --> 01:23:27,586
Mmm. Burgundy.

914
01:23:27,670 --> 01:23:30,673
[lilting orchestra music continues]

915
01:23:48,899 --> 01:23:50,484
-[dog whines]
-[Joséphine laughs]

916
01:23:50,568 --> 01:23:51,402
Hold on.

917
01:23:51,485 --> 01:23:52,945
-[barks]
-Hey, whoa!

918
01:23:53,696 --> 01:23:56,699
-Whoa, we don't say woof. Okay.
-[laughing]

919
01:23:57,867 --> 01:24:00,828
That's my boy. Attaboy.

920
01:24:00,911 --> 01:24:02,455
Come here, come here. Sit.

921
01:24:02,538 --> 01:24:05,458
-[muttering]
-[barks]

922
01:24:05,541 --> 01:24:08,544
[lilting orchestral music continues]

923
01:24:17,762 --> 01:24:21,766
It is time
to put this mystery to rest, emperor.

924
01:24:21,849 --> 01:24:25,186
I want to know if it's you or Joséphine.

925
01:24:25,269 --> 01:24:32,067
And to that end, we will conduct
a very practical experiment.

926
01:24:34,904 --> 01:24:38,073
At the end of the hallway-- Take this.

927
01:24:39,033 --> 01:24:43,037
Waiting for you, undressed,
ready to receive,

928
01:24:43,788 --> 01:24:48,334
is 18-year-old
Eléonore Denuelle de La Plaigne.

929
01:24:51,420 --> 01:24:53,672
She's brunette with brown eyes.

930
01:24:54,298 --> 01:24:58,344
And the object of this, well,
hardly unpleasant task...

931
01:24:59,303 --> 01:25:01,722
is to see if you can father a child.

932
01:25:03,015 --> 01:25:06,936
And then we will have an answer
to this nagging question

933
01:25:07,019 --> 01:25:12,191
of who is keeping who
from an heir to the throne of France.

934
01:25:13,651 --> 01:25:16,654
["Quartet No. 2 in C Minor" playing]

935
01:25:17,530 --> 01:25:20,366
-Shall we go?
-May I have another, please?

936
01:25:30,543 --> 01:25:31,544
[knocks on door]

937
01:26:08,122 --> 01:26:11,125
[indistinct chatter]

938
01:26:20,551 --> 01:26:23,470
The girl is pregnant.
You made her pregnant.

939
01:26:24,054 --> 01:26:24,889
Hm!

940
01:26:25,723 --> 01:26:27,141
[Napoleon speaking indistinctly]

941
01:26:27,224 --> 01:26:29,226
[chattering excitedly and laughing]

942
01:26:37,735 --> 01:26:39,320
I know I didn't hear her.

943
01:26:39,403 --> 01:26:41,405
[speaking indistinctly]

944
01:26:46,243 --> 01:26:48,662
When are you going to insist we divorce?

945
01:26:50,414 --> 01:26:51,999
Isn't that wonderful?

946
01:26:53,792 --> 01:26:57,922
From the only woman that I've ever loved
and given all that I've conquered.

947
01:26:58,005 --> 01:26:59,590
I'm just too tired...

948
01:27:01,216 --> 01:27:04,094
to wait for you to tell me
what I know is coming.

949
01:27:06,305 --> 01:27:07,765
If you insist.

950
01:27:11,435 --> 01:27:13,270
I'll make it easier for you.

951
01:27:19,401 --> 01:27:22,071
I know you will have a bastard child.

952
01:27:27,159 --> 01:27:31,330
If I succeed in making the birth of a boy
that I shall call my own son,

953
01:27:31,997 --> 01:27:36,126
I want you as a witness
to pretend the confinement of the empress.

954
01:27:38,629 --> 01:27:40,255
Your Highness, you are asking me

955
01:27:40,339 --> 01:27:42,883
to lie about the status
of the mother of your heir.

956
01:27:44,593 --> 01:27:46,553
That is another way of putting it, yes.

957
01:27:48,889 --> 01:27:49,890
Emperor,

958
01:27:50,849 --> 01:27:56,146
it is my honor and my duty, of course,
to do as you require of me.

959
01:27:56,230 --> 01:28:00,609
But if asked, I cannot contain
that which I know to be the truth.

960
01:28:01,694 --> 01:28:03,487
And painful though it is,

961
01:28:03,570 --> 01:28:05,614
the truth is that the empress

962
01:28:05,698 --> 01:28:08,283
is no longer capable
of bearing you a child.

963
01:28:19,503 --> 01:28:21,588
My good Joséphine.

964
01:28:23,882 --> 01:28:24,717
Mmm?

965
01:28:26,510 --> 01:28:28,387
You know how I've loved you.

966
01:28:31,140 --> 01:28:34,601
It is you, to you alone...

967
01:28:35,853 --> 01:28:39,398
that I owe the few moments of happiness
I have known in this world.

968
01:28:39,481 --> 01:28:40,482
Hm.

969
01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:47,156
My destiny is more powerful than my will.

970
01:28:49,074 --> 01:28:55,205
And my affections must yield
to the interests of my people.

971
01:28:55,289 --> 01:28:57,291
[laughing]

972
01:29:16,351 --> 01:29:20,189
The imperial decree
for the dissolution of the marriage...

973
01:29:21,148 --> 01:29:25,110
between the Emperor Napoleon
and the Empress Joséphine.

974
01:29:33,535 --> 01:29:39,291
"My people desire that this throne,
where providence has placed me,

975
01:29:39,374 --> 01:29:41,251
would be given to my children.

976
01:29:42,836 --> 01:29:46,924
However, I have lost hope
of having children from my marriage

977
01:29:47,007 --> 01:29:49,802
to my beloved wife, Empress Joséphine.

978
01:29:50,719 --> 01:29:54,765
I have then been led to listen
only to the good of the State

979
01:29:54,848 --> 01:29:58,393
and to want the dissolution
of years of my life."

980
01:30:05,442 --> 01:30:10,155
You have embellished my life for 15 years.

981
01:30:12,282 --> 01:30:17,913
The memories of which will remain
forever etched in my heart.

982
01:30:29,633 --> 01:30:32,636
[somber music playing]

983
01:30:34,012 --> 01:30:37,975
"Our marriage has become an obstacle
for the prosperity of France.

984
01:30:40,602 --> 01:30:42,229
She has been deprived...

985
01:30:43,939 --> 01:30:46,483
of one day being governed
by the descendants

986
01:30:46,567 --> 01:30:48,944
of the man brought to us by providence

987
01:30:49,027 --> 01:30:52,030
to mend the evils of a terrible revolution

988
01:30:52,114 --> 01:30:55,784
and restore faith, the throne,
and the social order."

989
01:31:01,665 --> 01:31:02,666
Sorry.

990
01:31:04,793 --> 01:31:07,421
-Emperor. Wait.
-Go. No, listen. All right?

991
01:31:07,504 --> 01:31:10,716
This is for your country.
That's what this is, all right?

992
01:31:10,799 --> 01:31:11,925
-[gasps]
-Now say it.

993
01:31:13,135 --> 01:31:13,969
Say it.

"Our marriage has become an obstacle
for the prosperity of France.

995
01:31:26,190 --> 01:31:29,318
Agreeing to the dissolution
of our marriage,

996
01:31:29,401 --> 01:31:31,987
as I must, does not change my feelings.

The emperor will have in me
always his truest friend."

[poignant music playing]

999

[Joséphine] Emperor,

1000
01:32:20,369 --> 01:32:23,914
you have just pronounced the word
which separates us forever.

1001
01:32:25,582 --> 01:32:28,001
Your mistaken ambition has ever been...

1002
01:32:28,877 --> 01:32:32,881
and will continue to be,
the guide of all your actions.

1003
01:32:33,757 --> 01:32:34,841
Nevertheless...

1004
01:32:35,884 --> 01:32:39,805
you can never doubt the sincerity
of my wishes for your happiness.

1005
01:32:40,472 --> 01:32:44,142
May it at least afford me
some consolation for my sufferings.

1006
01:32:45,310 --> 01:32:46,311
Yours...

1007
01:32:46,395 --> 01:32:47,229
Thank you.

1008
01:32:47,312 --> 01:32:48,438
...Joséphine.

1009
01:32:48,522 --> 01:32:50,857
-Good morning, madame.
-Thank you. What's your name?

1010
01:32:50,941 --> 01:32:53,068
-Fleur.
-Fleur. Pleasure.

1011
01:33:14,798 --> 01:33:16,800
[music fades]

1012
01:33:55,714 --> 01:33:56,715
I miss you.

1013
01:34:02,179 --> 01:34:04,306
Marital life is very agreeable now.

1014
01:34:08,852 --> 01:34:11,313
You've shown such great courage so far.

1015
01:34:13,732 --> 01:34:15,275
You must maintain it.

1016
01:34:16,777 --> 01:34:19,696
Do not permit yourself
to fall into melancholy.

1017
01:34:25,243 --> 01:34:27,245
You look best when you're happy.

1018
01:34:31,792 --> 01:34:33,210
Please take care of your health.

1019
01:34:34,378 --> 01:34:35,754
It is precious to me.

1020
01:34:37,089 --> 01:34:38,340
Will you write me tomorrow?

1021
01:34:39,716 --> 01:34:40,550
Mm-hm.

1022
01:34:42,719 --> 01:34:43,929
And the next day?

1023
01:34:44,679 --> 01:34:45,680
Yes.

1024
01:34:46,640 --> 01:34:48,016
And the day after that?

1025
01:34:49,142 --> 01:34:50,018
Mm-hm.

1026
01:34:51,686 --> 01:34:53,063
And the day after that?

1027
01:34:57,109 --> 01:34:57,943
Good.

1028
01:35:05,409 --> 01:35:06,410
[door closes]

1029
01:35:08,203 --> 01:35:11,748
Once, an English ambassador
challenged my reasons for war.

1030
01:35:12,707 --> 01:35:16,086
He said, "You French,
you fight only for money,

1031
01:35:16,169 --> 01:35:18,547
while we English, we fight for honor."

1032
01:35:19,673 --> 01:35:23,343
I replied,
"Everyone fights for what they lack."

1033
01:35:24,636 --> 01:35:25,762
[chuckles]

1034
01:35:25,846 --> 01:35:29,516
Uh... this is not your story.
This never happened to you, did it?

1035
01:35:29,599 --> 01:35:30,725
Of course it did.

1036
01:35:30,809 --> 01:35:32,060
-Of course it did.
-What?

1037
01:35:32,144 --> 01:35:34,396
We had the same saying
with my people and the Turks.

1038
01:35:34,479 --> 01:35:35,605
-[laughs]
-Do you?

1039
01:35:35,689 --> 01:35:37,649
The English lack honor.
We can agree on that.

1040
01:35:37,732 --> 01:35:39,234
-Listen, there is...
-[mosquito buzzes]

1041
01:35:40,068 --> 01:35:43,697
[sighs] There's nothing
I think we can agree more with...

1042
01:35:45,073 --> 01:35:46,741
than our hatred for Britain.

1043
01:35:49,703 --> 01:35:51,413
I just have to say that...

1044
01:35:53,123 --> 01:35:54,207
it actually...

1045
01:35:54,791 --> 01:35:57,794
It would be my absolute pleasure and honor
if I could call you my brother.

1046
01:36:01,465 --> 01:36:03,508
There is a way for you to call me brother.

1047
01:36:06,136 --> 01:36:08,930
Last night, at dinner, I was...

1048
01:36:11,099 --> 01:36:13,435
charmed by your sister.

1049
01:36:15,020 --> 01:36:16,146
Is she spoken for?

1050
01:36:16,229 --> 01:36:17,314
Ah.

1051
01:36:17,397 --> 01:36:21,860
Sadly, yes. She's to be married
to the Duke of Oldenburg, I'm afraid.

1052
01:36:22,527 --> 01:36:25,113
And what of her younger sister? Anna?

1053
01:36:26,323 --> 01:36:28,033
Is there a formal offer for Anna?

1054
01:36:28,116 --> 01:36:30,118
-[flies buzzing]
-[sniffles]

1055
01:36:32,287 --> 01:36:33,163
Ha.

1056
01:36:35,081 --> 01:36:38,543
Uh... well, you see,
Anna, she's 15 years old.

1057
01:36:39,669 --> 01:36:40,837
That is a detail.

1058
01:36:44,257 --> 01:36:48,929
Our friendship is built
on our mutual distrust of England.

1059
01:36:49,554 --> 01:36:53,850
When we hold to the Continental blockade,
we choke them from the trade,

1060
01:36:53,934 --> 01:36:56,394
and we fight for our most sacred rights.

1061
01:36:56,478 --> 01:37:00,232
That is what is important between us.
I've just had a thought.

1062
01:37:00,941 --> 01:37:02,275
-No.
-No, say it.

1063
01:37:02,359 --> 01:37:03,985
-Should I tell you?
-Please.

1064
01:37:05,195 --> 01:37:08,365
Imagine an army. Fifty thousand men.

1065
01:37:08,448 --> 01:37:11,618
Russians, Frenchmen,

Uh, this union would bring together
Austria and France

1080

I must wipe away my melancholy
and begin the march to Moscow.

1120
01:42:03,493 --> 01:42:06,412
I've convinced the heads of Europe
of this resolution,

1121
01:42:06,496 --> 01:42:11,000
and so I command the combined forces
of France, Austria, Italy,

I have just won a great battle today.

01:57:15,237 --> 01:57:19,450
I'm a flower that opens its petals
and smiles to the sunshine...

1242
01:57:20,451 --> 01:57:24,163
unconscious that the storm is near
which will lay me low

1243
01:57:24,246 --> 01:57:26,290
and scatter leaves to the heavens.

1244
01:57:27,249 --> 01:57:29,168
Come quickly, my friend.

1245
01:57:30,586 --> 01:57:33,589
["What Power Art Thou
(King Arthur)" playing]

1246
01:57:33,672 --> 01:57:35,674
[indistinct chatter]

1247
01:57:57,154 --> 01:57:58,822
[Joséphine groaning]

1248
01:57:58,906 --> 01:58:01,325
If you would open your mouth, please.

1249
01:58:02,117 --> 01:58:02,951
[groans]

1250
01:58:06,580 --> 01:58:07,581
Thank you.

1251
01:58:12,419 --> 01:58:13,420
Thank you.

1252
01:58:14,463 --> 01:58:17,883
Well, your chest is congested.
Your throat is aflame.

1253
01:58:18,926 --> 01:58:20,844
My suggestion is to stay in bed.

1254
01:58:23,263 --> 01:58:24,723
But Napoleon is coming.

1255
01:58:25,265 --> 01:58:27,893
It would be unwise
to receive any visitors.

1256
01:58:27,976 --> 01:58:29,603
But Napoleon is coming.

1257
01:58:29,686 --> 01:58:30,771
I understand.

1258
01:58:31,522 --> 01:58:34,525
["What Power Art Thou
(King Arthur)" continues]

1259
01:58:50,332 --> 01:58:52,251
[Corvisart] Just keep her comfortable.

1260
01:59:20,279 --> 01:59:21,321
Your Majesty.

1261
01:59:26,118 --> 01:59:26,952
You may speak.

1262
01:59:27,536 --> 01:59:30,497
Bonaparte, Your Majesty. He has returned.

1263
01:59:30,581 --> 01:59:32,708
A ship landed on the beach
in Antibes this morning,

1264
01:59:32,791 --> 01:59:33,792
and they're on the march.

1265
01:59:33,876 --> 01:59:36,920
Napoleon Bonaparte
is marching towards Paris.

1266
01:59:40,299 --> 01:59:42,467
-More.
-Your Majesty.

1267
01:59:43,886 --> 01:59:46,889
[fife and drum music playing]

1268
01:59:49,433 --> 01:59:51,435
[horses whinnying]

1269
02:00:16,001 --> 02:00:17,252
Afternoon, colonel.

1270
02:00:18,003 --> 02:00:19,212
[colonel] Your Majesty.

1271
02:00:19,838 --> 02:00:20,881
General Marchand,

1272
02:00:20,964 --> 02:00:23,675
in defense of the royal government
of King Louis XVIII,

1273
02:00:24,259 --> 02:00:27,387
requests that you surrender your weapons
and cease your march,

1274
02:00:28,180 --> 02:00:30,515
so that you may be arrested
and returned to your island.

1275
02:00:31,725 --> 02:00:35,729
Will you please inform the general that
I shall like to come and speak with him?

1276
02:00:37,314 --> 02:00:39,650
I have no fight with my own Fifth Army.

1277
02:00:41,193 --> 02:00:43,070
-Sir.
-[horse whinnies]

1278
02:00:51,244 --> 02:00:52,704
He wishes to speak.

1279
02:00:54,164 --> 02:00:55,165
Make ready!

1280
02:00:59,461 --> 02:01:00,504
Present.

1281
02:01:11,181 --> 02:01:13,350
[Napoleon] Soldiers of the Fifth Regiment,

1282
02:01:14,935 --> 02:01:16,228
do you recognize me?

1283
02:01:19,898 --> 02:01:21,775
Do you recognize me, soldiers?

1284
02:01:23,944 --> 02:01:25,570
[soldier] Yes, Emperor!

1285
02:01:25,654 --> 02:01:27,656
[soldiers laughing]

1286
02:01:31,743 --> 02:01:32,869
[Napoleon] I miss you.

1287
02:01:35,789 --> 02:01:37,791
I'm melancholy for my home...

1288
02:01:39,960 --> 02:01:41,712
and for our victories together.

1289
02:01:45,549 --> 02:01:46,967
I want to come home.

1290
02:01:48,343 --> 02:01:49,720
Will you join me?

1291
02:01:51,388 --> 02:01:53,223
Long live the emperor!

1292
02:01:53,306 --> 02:01:56,476
-Long live the emperor!
-Long live the emperor!

1293
02:01:56,560 --> 02:02:00,689
-Long live the emperor!
-Long live the emperor!

1294
02:02:04,860 --> 02:02:06,737
Long live the emperor!

1295
02:02:07,487 --> 02:02:08,905
Long live the emperor!

1296
02:02:09,364 --> 02:02:12,367
[auspicious music playing]

1297
02:02:12,993 --> 02:02:15,328
Long live the emperor!

1298
02:02:17,664 --> 02:02:19,124
Long live the emperor!

1299
02:02:19,875 --> 02:02:22,878
[auspicious music continues]

1300
02:02:35,974 --> 02:02:38,226
[music fades]

1301
02:02:40,729 --> 02:02:45,525
On May 26th, Dr. Corvisart was called...

1302
02:02:46,777 --> 02:02:52,074
and found her chest congested
and her throat inflamed.

1303
02:02:54,367 --> 02:02:56,828
Her illness was diphtheria.

1304
02:02:59,998 --> 02:03:01,374
On May 29th...

1305
02:03:03,627 --> 02:03:06,004
last sacrament was given and she died.

1306
02:03:10,509 --> 02:03:12,427
And no one thought to notify me?

1307
02:03:22,646 --> 02:03:23,688
Hortense.

1308
02:03:26,566 --> 02:03:27,567
Do you blame--?

1309
02:03:29,528 --> 02:03:30,612
Do you blame me?

1310
02:03:33,406 --> 02:03:34,533
I don't blame you.

1311
02:03:34,616 --> 02:03:35,659
Of course not.

1312
02:03:38,620 --> 02:03:41,540
I'm not to bear
the burden of responsibility...

1313
02:03:43,375 --> 02:03:45,502
for the misfortunes of your mother.

1314
02:03:46,503 --> 02:03:48,547
I want the letters that I wrote to her.

1315
02:03:48,630 --> 02:03:52,801
I'm sorry, I don't have them.
They were stolen by her valet.

1316
02:03:55,512 --> 02:03:56,930
Where did she keep them?

1317
02:03:59,099 --> 02:04:01,601
In the cupboard in her bedroom,
next to her bed.

1318
02:04:05,230 --> 02:04:06,731
What did he do with them?

1319
02:04:08,984 --> 02:04:10,652
Her valet sold them.

1320
02:04:16,992 --> 02:04:17,993
[sobs]

1321
02:04:18,076 --> 02:04:19,244
I'm sorry.

1322
02:04:21,913 --> 02:04:22,998
I forgive you.

1323
02:04:27,794 --> 02:04:31,256
[Arthur]
Napoleon Bonaparte has destroyed

1324
02:04:31,339 --> 02:04:34,968
the only title upon which
his very existence depended.

1325
02:04:36,303 --> 02:04:38,138
This congregation of allies...

1326
02:04:38,972 --> 02:04:43,185
shall form along the borders of France
and Belgium an army.

1327
02:04:43,768 --> 02:04:46,104
Seventy thousand troops from England...

1328
02:04:47,272 --> 02:04:49,733
120,000 troops from Prussia.

1329
02:04:51,943 --> 02:04:55,906
This vermin has routed
the farmyards of Europe...

1330
02:04:56,823 --> 02:04:58,783
while the farmers snored.

1331
02:04:59,534 --> 02:05:01,953
We should have struck this blow long ago.

1332
02:05:02,829 --> 02:05:07,125
He has held the world hostage
with his egotism,

1333
02:05:07,209 --> 02:05:10,462
his insatiable hunger for power,

1334
02:05:11,087 --> 02:05:13,965
and his lack of simple good manners.

1335
02:05:14,883 --> 02:05:17,427
We will all sleep again without him.

1336
02:05:18,553 --> 02:05:23,683
I believe I speak for all of us when I say
that the only regret we all share

1337
02:05:24,351 --> 02:05:27,729
is that we allowed
this vermin to live at all.

1338
02:05:29,105 --> 02:05:32,609
Two hundred and fifty thousand men
with the traitor.

1339
02:05:34,319 --> 02:05:39,532
Twenty-five thousand men,
125,000 men,

1340
02:05:40,367 --> 02:05:42,077
and 100,000 men...

1341
02:05:46,081 --> 02:05:49,376
against our 125,000 men.

1342
02:05:51,836 --> 02:05:53,421
This is a fight on land.

1343
02:05:55,048 --> 02:05:58,385
This is what Britain does not know
how to do that I know.

1344
02:06:00,303 --> 02:06:04,266
Strike quickly
against Wellington and Blücher.

1345
02:06:05,267 --> 02:06:06,768
Defeat them separately.

1346
02:06:07,894 --> 02:06:11,356
Disallow them from uniting forces here.

1347
02:06:13,233 --> 02:06:16,236
[dramatic music playing]

1348
02:06:24,327 --> 02:06:26,204
-Morning.
-Morning.

1349
02:06:27,747 --> 02:06:29,457
The Prussians are advancing.

1350
02:06:30,208 --> 02:06:31,793
We should begin the offensive.

1351
02:06:32,627 --> 02:06:34,421
[Napoleon]
We must wait for the ground to dry.

1352
02:06:37,132 --> 02:06:40,260
Blücher will never make it in time.
I'll have Wellington by lunch.

1353
02:06:47,809 --> 02:06:49,811
[thunder rumbling]

1354
02:07:03,199 --> 02:07:05,577
I never get wet if I can help it.

1355
02:07:15,295 --> 02:07:17,297
[soldiers chattering]

1356
02:08:12,102 --> 02:08:13,520
[general] What shall I tell the men?

1357
02:08:15,397 --> 02:08:17,107
Tell them to make the rain stop.

1358
02:08:20,235 --> 02:08:24,572
-[British soldier 1] Coming through!
-[British soldier 2] In formation!

1359
02:08:26,074 --> 02:08:28,701
[Arthur]
Now's your time, lads. Now's your time.

1360
02:08:30,120 --> 02:08:31,496
Now, listen very carefully.

1361
02:08:33,081 --> 02:08:38,044
Patience is the order of the day today.
Patience shall win the day.

1362
02:08:38,837 --> 02:08:41,172
We must hold this ground.

1363
02:08:41,840 --> 02:08:43,633
Let him come to us!

1364
02:08:43,716 --> 02:08:45,718
[cheering]

1365
02:08:50,807 --> 02:08:52,058
Go on, boys. Go on.

1366
02:08:54,185 --> 02:08:55,061
Whoa!

1367
02:08:56,020 --> 02:08:57,355
Good morning, General Blücher.

1368
02:08:57,439 --> 02:08:59,899
-Good morning.
-Estimated time of arrival, sir?

1369
02:08:59,983 --> 02:09:02,360
-Officer?
-About five hours.

1370
02:09:02,444 --> 02:09:04,028
About five hours.

1371
02:09:20,712 --> 02:09:21,963
Come on, boys. Come on, boys!

1372
02:09:34,601 --> 02:09:35,768
Now, there he is.

1373
02:09:36,728 --> 02:09:38,521
He appears to be...

1374
02:09:39,314 --> 02:09:42,233
[chuckles] just sleeping.

1375
02:09:43,943 --> 02:09:49,365
But the one thing you cannot resist,
my friend, is a frontal attack.

1376
02:09:52,327 --> 02:09:55,288
Let's see how this general
can attack our position.

1377
02:09:58,166 --> 02:10:03,046
Sir. I have the emperor in my sights.
Do I have permission to fire?

1378
02:10:03,129 --> 02:10:04,172
Certainly not.

1379
02:10:04,923 --> 02:10:07,467
Generals commanding armies
have better things to do with their time

1380
02:10:07,550 --> 02:10:08,760
than to shoot at one another.

1381
02:10:08,843 --> 02:10:10,720
Hold your fire, rifleman,
on pain of death.

1382
02:10:10,803 --> 02:10:14,474
-Go on, boys. Come, come!
-[soldier] A runner coming through!

1383
02:10:16,059 --> 02:10:17,644
Blücher, 11 to 12 miles, sir.

1384
02:10:18,478 --> 02:10:20,063
[soldier] Attention. Follow me.

1385
02:10:20,730 --> 02:10:23,358
-Blücher at 11 to 12 miles, sir.
-Jesus Christ.

1386
02:10:23,441 --> 02:10:25,527
-I want a report every hour.
-Yes, sir.

1387
02:10:28,821 --> 02:10:31,991
[French soldier]
Runner coming through! Make way!

1388
02:10:32,075 --> 02:10:33,076
Whoa!

1389
02:10:36,538 --> 02:10:39,499
Prussians on the roadside, 12 miles.

1390
02:10:45,797 --> 02:10:50,051
Prussian troops have been sighted
on the road, sire. Twelve miles.

1391
02:10:53,388 --> 02:10:54,472
Ready the cannons.

1392
02:10:58,101 --> 02:10:59,978
Ready the cannons!

1393
02:11:00,603 --> 02:11:02,855
[soldiers yelling]

1394
02:11:02,939 --> 02:11:04,983
[general] Go on! Move!

1395
02:11:14,409 --> 02:11:16,953
[soldier 1] Ready! Cannons are ready!

1396
02:11:17,036 --> 02:11:19,038
[soldier 2] Cannons are ready!

1397
02:11:19,122 --> 02:11:20,665
The rain has stopped, sir.

1398
02:11:29,591 --> 02:11:31,384
Prepare to fire!

1399
02:11:40,977 --> 02:11:43,605
-Fire!
-[soldiers] Fire!

1400
02:11:49,611 --> 02:11:51,154
[British general] Take cover!

1401
02:11:51,237 --> 02:11:53,239
[British soldiers yelling]

1402
02:11:53,948 --> 02:11:56,284
[British general]
Straight into position. Steady.

1403
02:11:56,868 --> 02:12:00,288
Prepare for the advance! Get ready!

1404
02:12:01,789 --> 02:12:03,249
Prepare for the advance.

1405
02:12:03,333 --> 02:12:05,418
Readjust to 1-9-5!

1406
02:12:05,501 --> 02:12:07,462
Adjust 1-9-5!

1407
02:12:07,545 --> 02:12:10,423
[French general] Elevation 1-9-5.

1408
02:12:13,343 --> 02:12:14,469
Adjusted!

1409
02:12:16,387 --> 02:12:19,265
Prepare to fire! Fire!

1410
02:12:19,349 --> 02:12:20,350
Fire!

1411
02:12:26,064 --> 02:12:29,233
[British general]
Keep your heads down. Take cover!

1412
02:12:29,817 --> 02:12:32,320
[British soldiers yelling]

1413
02:12:36,240 --> 02:12:37,116
[soldier screams]

1414
02:12:38,076 --> 02:12:40,662
-[soldier] Out the way!
-[general] Hold fast, men!

Fire!

1426
02:13:26,124 --> 02:13:27,208
Make ready!

1427

Fire!

1429
02:13:41,681 --> 02:13:43,641
You there, get on that cannon.

1430
02:13:53,818 --> 02:13:54,986
Fire!

1431
02:14:02,368 --> 02:14:03,619
[French general 1] Fill the gap!

1432
02:14:05,371 --> 02:14:06,914
Keep the line!

1433
02:14:14,422 --> 02:14:16,883
[French general 2]
Skirmishers, keep advancing!

1434
02:14:16,966 --> 02:14:18,468
[French general 1] Get in formation.

1435
02:14:18,551 --> 02:14:20,011
Fire at will!

1436
02:14:25,600 --> 02:14:27,935
[British general]
Keep them back, men. Fire!

1437
02:14:31,105 --> 02:14:34,275
Go on, go on. Don't let them rally!

Get that gun back in strike position!

[messenger]
Get up, boys! Go on. Go on, boys!

1441
02:14:45,870 --> 02:14:46,871
Whoa. Whoa.

1442
02:14:49,373 --> 02:14:52,293
Prussians, roadside, five miles.

1443
02:14:53,920 --> 02:14:55,463
[French general] Five miles, maybe less.

1444
02:14:57,465 --> 02:14:59,759
We have to act before Blücher arrives.

1445
02:14:59,842 --> 02:15:00,843
Out.

1446
02:15:03,721 --> 02:15:04,722
Out!

1447
02:15:16,859 --> 02:15:18,361
[French general] Cavalry!

1448
02:15:19,612 --> 02:15:21,447
Charge!

1449
02:15:21,531 --> 02:15:23,533
[French soldiers yelling]

1450
02:15:28,371 --> 02:15:29,956
Prepare to receive cavalry.

1451
02:15:30,039 --> 02:15:32,667
[British general]
Prepare to receive cavalry!

1452
02:15:33,501 --> 02:15:36,504
[tense music playing]

1453
02:15:41,676 --> 02:15:45,555
[Arthur] We must hold our ground.
Stand fast to the last man.

1454
02:15:45,638 --> 02:15:47,807
We must not be beat!

1455
02:15:48,683 --> 02:15:50,935
Or what will they say in England?

1456
02:15:51,018 --> 02:15:54,188
-[British general 1] Hold the line!
-[British general 2] Keep tight!

[French general] Long live the emperor!

1463
02:16:37,440 --> 02:16:41,360
[British general 1]
One section, fire. Two section, fire.

1464
02:16:55,708 --> 02:16:57,418
[British general 2] Hold that line! Fire!

1465
02:16:57,501 --> 02:17:00,421
[French general] What do we do, sir?
We can't break through.

1466
02:17:00,504 --> 02:17:02,965
-Keep them running.
-Get them back in the square!

1467
02:17:05,176 --> 02:17:07,261
Show them your British steel.

1468

["U Lamentu Di U Pastore" playing]

1469
02:17:19,065 --> 02:17:20,858
[French general 1] Present arms!

02:17:24,570 --> 02:17:26,197
Shoulder arms!

1471
02:17:30,618 --> 02:17:32,495
[French general 2]
They're here, the Prussians.

1472
02:17:35,665 --> 02:17:37,541
First over the rise, emperor.

1473
02:18:03,067 --> 02:18:05,152
[French general 1]
We need to find a way through!

1474
02:18:07,989 --> 02:18:09,991
-Break the square.
-Break the square!

1475
02:18:20,501 --> 02:18:21,919
[Napoleon] Charge bayonets.

1476
02:18:22,712 --> 02:18:24,755
Charge bayonets!

1477

Your emperor is with you!
You are the brave of Austerlitz!

1478
02:18:32,138 --> 02:18:33,681
Never surrender!

1479
02:18:34,473 --> 02:18:36,934
For homeland and glory!

1480
02:18:37,727 --> 02:18:40,146
[suspenseful music playing]

1481
02:18:43,899 --> 02:18:46,527

Shoulder to shoulder.

1484
02:18:55,327 --> 02:18:56,996
Infantry, advance.

Cavalry advance, sir?

1497

Cavalry advance.

1498
02:20:04,939 --> 02:20:06,649

Sir, Blücher.

1502
02:20:55,197 --> 02:20:56,490
Thank God.

Your Majesty!

1505
02:21:02,788 --> 02:21:05,708
Come see how a Marshal of France dies!

1506
02:21:05,791 --> 02:21:07,209
Hyah!

1507
02:21:35,321 --> 02:21:36,989
Hyah! Hyah!

1508
02:22:11,232 --> 02:22:15,903
The battle is mine.
There will be an end to the war.

[Napoleon] I am the first to admit
when I make a mistake.

1513
02:22:36,590 --> 02:22:37,758
But I never do.

1514
02:22:38,384 --> 02:22:40,177
Because it is geometry.

1515
02:22:41,679 --> 02:22:44,515
I simply know precisely
where to place a cannon.

1516
02:22:45,683 --> 02:22:50,354
But, tragically, I cannot transfer
this knowledge to my marshals.

1517
02:22:51,313 --> 02:22:54,441
That might be
what is most difficult in life.

1518
02:22:56,485 --> 02:22:58,279
Accepting the failures of others.

1519
02:22:59,321 --> 02:23:00,656
You must not do that.

1520
02:23:03,200 --> 02:23:04,493
Encourage greatness.

-What are they doing there?
-Sir, it's the midshipmen. They adore him.

1526
02:23:25,931 --> 02:23:26,932
Get them out.

1527
02:23:27,516 --> 02:23:29,101
Clear the room. Quickly.

1528
02:23:45,409 --> 02:23:47,453
-Your Grace--
-Good morning, general.

-May I sit down?
-Please.

1532
02:23:54,335 --> 02:23:55,544
And this breakfast.

1533
02:23:56,628 --> 02:23:59,131
Now I know why you have
such a successful navy.

1534
02:24:00,174 --> 02:24:01,175
Thank you.

1535
02:24:06,764 --> 02:24:09,266
I've never visited
the English countryside.

1536
02:24:09,350 --> 02:24:11,352
I imagine I'll love the Cotswolds.

1537
02:24:14,730 --> 02:24:18,108
Soft rolling hills, gentle light.

1538
02:24:19,735 --> 02:24:24,073
My dear sir,
it is only by a narrow margin of opinion

1539
02:24:24,156 --> 02:24:26,408
that you have been spared
the fate of being shot.

1540
02:24:26,992 --> 02:24:28,160
[scoffs]

1541
02:24:28,243 --> 02:24:30,496
Politically, I'm afraid it's impossible

1542
02:24:30,579 --> 02:24:33,916
for the British government
to allow you to stay in England.

1543
02:24:35,918 --> 02:24:38,921
You are permitted three officers
and 12 servants

1544
02:24:39,004 --> 02:24:41,340
to accompany you into exile.

1545
02:24:42,174 --> 02:24:45,886
Exile will be contained
to the island of Saint Helena,

1546
02:24:45,969 --> 02:24:50,432
under the watchful eye
of Governor Hudson Lowe and his family.

1547

Helena.

1549
02:24:57,064 --> 02:24:58,273
It's a small island.

1550
02:24:59,483 --> 02:25:00,859
More of a rock, really.

1551
02:25:02,027 --> 02:25:04,822
A thousand miles
from the mainland of Africa.

1552
02:25:05,531 --> 02:25:09,993
I'm told it's very pretty, tranquil.
You'll have time to reflect.

1553
02:25:11,662 --> 02:25:13,872
Your correspondence will be monitored,

1554
02:25:13,956 --> 02:25:17,501

by the orderly officer.

and you will do as I say.

I don't know, sir.

02:27:21,833 --> 02:27:22,834
I did.

1579
02:27:23,710 --> 02:27:27,965
I believe, sir, the Russians burnt it
to get rid of the French.

1580
