Prompt, severe, inflexible.

It is therefore an

[clamoring continues]

27
00:04:29,353 --> 00:04:32,523
Now, she was guilty of
three charges against you:

28
00:04:33,690 --> 00:04:35,984
depletion of the
national treasury,

29
00:04:37,236 --> 00:04:41,740
conspiracy against the internal
and external security of state,

30
00:04:42,824 --> 00:04:48,205
and high treason for acting
in the interests of the enemy.

31
00:04:51,625 --> 00:04:53,669
Mercy for the villains?

32
00:04:56,213 --> 00:04:57,214
No.

33
00:04:58,173 --> 00:05:00,843
Mercy for the innocent.

34
00:05:00,926 --> 00:05:03,637
- Mercy for the unfortunate.
- [people cheering]

35
00:05:04,137 --> 00:05:06,431
Mercy for humanity.

[clamoring]

37
00:05:10,602 --> 00:05:14,523
[revolutionary] An inescapable
outcome of democracy's connection

38
00:05:15,232 --> 00:05:18,819
in relation to the nation's
immediate demands at this moment…

39
00:05:18,902 --> 00:05:21,405
The British navy have
taken the port of Toulon.

40
00:05:21,905 --> 00:05:24,241
Half the French fleet
is trapped there.

41
00:05:24,324 --> 00:05:27,619
If we lose those ships,
the Republic will fall.

42
00:05:28,704 --> 00:05:32,124
Lucky for us, there are only
2,000 English troops in Toulon.

43
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:39,000
But we are short of artillery and led
by a general who was a court painter.

44
00:05:40,340 --> 00:05:43,010
It is not necessary to
recapture Toulon itself.

45
00:05:44,011 --> 00:05:47,222
The town is not a town.
The town is a port.

46
00:05:48,515 --> 00:05:50,809
If the harbor's untenable
to the English fleet,

47
00:05:50,893 --> 00:05:52,102
the town must surrender.

48
00:05:52,811 --> 00:05:56,398
My brother, Captain Bonaparte,
as artillery officer,

49
00:05:56,481 --> 00:06:00,611
has organized heated shots
against English ships.

50
00:06:01,195 --> 00:06:04,072
He has proven his
commitment to the Republic.

51
00:06:05,449 --> 00:06:07,451
And how do you propose
to take the harbor?

52
00:06:08,243 --> 00:06:10,746
Capture the fort that
dominates the harbor,

53
00:06:11,455 --> 00:06:12,789
and you have the city.

54
00:06:18,003 --> 00:06:21,924
We must make an example,
or other cities will fall.

55
00:06:23,592 --> 00:06:25,260
And I, for one,

56
00:06:25,344 --> 00:06:29,431
will never let the royalists
or the English take my region.

[soldier] Morning, sir.

61
00:06:44,988 --> 00:06:45,989
General Carteaux?

62
00:06:47,407 --> 00:06:48,408
He's over there.

63
00:06:54,665 --> 00:06:58,502
[Napoleon] Lucien, my dear
brother, I am in Toulon already.

64
00:06:59,795 --> 00:07:05,592
The troops are in a poor state, and your
conscripts untrained and undisciplined.

65
00:07:06,343 --> 00:07:10,013
Without equipment and
resources, I see only failure.

66
00:07:24,653 --> 00:07:29,241
We are collecting scrap iron to recast
small mortars more suitable for my plan.

67
00:07:30,117 --> 00:07:31,577
If we do not succeed,

68
00:07:32,286 --> 00:07:37,082
those in power will only see us as
Corsican ruffians unfit for higher office,

69
00:07:37,165 --> 00:07:39,668
and our mother's
ambitions will be quashed.

70
00:07:52,264 --> 00:07:55,350
[peddler 1] That's it,
madam. Fine eye you have.

71
00:07:55,434 --> 00:07:58,604
- [peddler 2] There you go.
- [peddler 3] I'll still be here next week.

[people chattering]

73
00:08:02,357 --> 00:08:04,109
[Napoleon] The British
control the big guns

74
00:08:04,193 --> 00:08:06,236
that point out at
their fleet offshore.

75
00:08:07,029 --> 00:08:11,575
Take those guns, and we can fire
onto them and end this blockade.

[soldiers chattering]

77
00:08:24,963 --> 00:08:28,926
[Napoleon] Surprise is my
advantage, but I will win by fire.

I cannot wait for your arrival.

00:08:32,261 --> 00:08:34,014

[citizen] Get him.

180
00:17:23,961 --> 00:17:25,546
- [clicks]
- [onlookers gasp]

181
00:17:25,628 --> 00:17:26,630
[sighs]

182
00:17:27,714 --> 00:17:28,715
[gunshot]

183
00:17:31,635 --> 00:17:33,720
[people muttering]

184
00:17:33,804 --> 00:17:36,181
[Robespierre breathing
heavily, groaning]

185
00:17:41,562 --> 00:17:43,605
[choking]

186
00:17:43,689 --> 00:17:46,525
[screams]

187
00:17:47,818 --> 00:17:49,027
You missed.

188
00:17:49,111 --> 00:17:50,654
[Robespierre wheezes]

189
00:17:52,155 --> 00:17:53,699
The guillotine, my friend.

190
00:17:54,867 --> 00:17:56,702
[prisoners clamoring, cheering]

191
00:19:02,100 --> 00:19:05,103
- [audience laughing]
- [puppeteer screaming]

192
00:19:09,608 --> 00:19:11,235
[audience groans]

193
00:19:13,695 --> 00:19:15,155
[audience applauding]

194
00:19:15,239 --> 00:19:16,782
[musicians singing]

195
00:19:21,411 --> 00:19:23,413
[audience laughing]

196
00:19:30,796 --> 00:19:31,797
[Barras chuckles]

197
00:19:36,635 --> 00:19:39,137
[exclaiming]

198
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:45,561
[laughs]

199
00:19:48,230 --> 00:19:49,231
[groans]

200
00:19:52,192 --> 00:19:53,944
[growling]

201
00:19:54,027 --> 00:19:56,113
[singing continues]

202
00:20:05,873 --> 00:20:06,874
Ooh.

203
00:20:15,257 --> 00:20:18,093
- [classical music playing]
- [people chattering, laughing]

204
00:20:24,725 --> 00:20:26,393
[croupier] A seven, madame.

205
00:20:30,063 --> 00:20:31,190
[ball guest] Deal again.

206
00:20:42,075 --> 00:20:43,076
Deal again.

207
00:20:50,542 --> 00:20:51,627
[croupier] Your bet.

208
00:21:02,596 --> 00:21:03,597
Seven again.

209
00:21:06,266 --> 00:21:08,101
No. No win.

210
00:21:11,146 --> 00:21:13,148
I'll be out first. That's mine.

211
00:21:23,158 --> 00:21:24,535
Why are you staring at me?

212
00:21:25,869 --> 00:21:27,204
- Am I?
- Mmm.

213
00:21:28,247 --> 00:21:29,331
- No, I was not.
- Yes.

214
00:21:29,998 --> 00:21:31,166
Oh, you weren't?

215
00:21:32,417 --> 00:21:33,418
I was.

216
00:21:34,878 --> 00:21:37,464
I was staring
at... at your face.

217
00:21:38,924 --> 00:21:40,843
What is this
costume you have on?

218
00:21:41,468 --> 00:21:43,303
- This is my uniform.
- [scoffs]

219
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,140
- I led the French victory at Toulon.
- [chuckles]

220
00:21:53,897 --> 00:21:55,315
Do not tell me your name.

221
00:21:58,277 --> 00:21:59,278
[chuckles]

222
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,041
[clears throat]

223
00:22:14,126 --> 00:22:15,586
- General?
- [Napoleon] Mmm?

224
00:22:15,669 --> 00:22:19,006
There is a very young man
who wishes to see you.

225
00:22:19,089 --> 00:22:21,800
His name is, uh,
Eugène Beauharnais.

226
00:22:22,718 --> 00:22:23,719
Mmm.

227
00:22:24,303 --> 00:22:25,387
Ow.

228
00:22:26,597 --> 00:22:27,598
[clears throat]

229
00:22:31,018 --> 00:22:32,019
[Junot] Citizen.

230
00:22:40,569 --> 00:22:41,904
General Bonaparte.

231
00:22:42,487 --> 00:22:43,488
Yes?

232
00:22:43,572 --> 00:22:47,743
My name is Eugène Beauharnais,
son of Joséphine Beauharnais.

233
00:22:48,493 --> 00:22:49,494
What do you want?

234
00:22:50,621 --> 00:22:52,039
My father's saber.

235
00:22:52,664 --> 00:22:57,085
I-It was taken from him before
he was arrested and executed.

236
00:22:58,086 --> 00:22:59,338
Yes?

237
00:22:59,421 --> 00:23:03,675
I-It would mean a great deal to me and
to my mother if it were returned to us.

238
00:23:03,759 --> 00:23:05,636
It's all we have of him.

239
00:23:05,719 --> 00:23:07,179
The sword is a weapon.

240
00:23:08,722 --> 00:23:11,808
I cannot allow citizens to have
weapons in their possession.

241
00:23:12,392 --> 00:23:15,979
The sword is a keepsake for me
to remember my dear late father.

242
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,565
Perhaps, but it is a
weapon nevertheless.

243
00:23:22,194 --> 00:23:23,946
Young man, why are you here?

244
00:23:24,821 --> 00:23:28,700
My mother said that you were the only
man of authority to retrieve the sword.

245
00:23:41,171 --> 00:23:43,841
All of these are from officers
who were sentenced to die.

246
00:23:46,718 --> 00:23:48,846
Did no one think to attach
names to any of them?

247
00:23:50,973 --> 00:23:53,892
No, there are no names.

248
00:24:08,282 --> 00:24:09,449
[bell rings]

249
00:24:18,542 --> 00:24:19,668
General Bonaparte?

250
00:24:30,095 --> 00:24:31,180
Thank you.

251
00:24:37,978 --> 00:24:39,938
Is there reason to
introduce myself?

252
00:24:41,899 --> 00:24:42,900
No, General.

253
00:24:43,734 --> 00:24:44,818
[Napoleon] Good.

254
00:24:46,862 --> 00:24:49,364
My compliments to the
chef of this fine family.

255
00:25:00,042 --> 00:25:02,711
[chuckling]

256
00:25:10,427 --> 00:25:12,095
Would you like to sit closer?

257
00:25:16,099 --> 00:25:17,100
[laughs]

258
00:25:20,896 --> 00:25:23,148
[chuckling]

259
00:25:29,112 --> 00:25:30,822
[Joséphine] Do I look
like I'm in love?

260
00:25:32,324 --> 00:25:34,993
Do you find him without appeal?

261
00:25:40,123 --> 00:25:41,375
No.

262
00:25:41,458 --> 00:25:43,126
Then perhaps that is enough.

263
00:25:48,507 --> 00:25:50,592
Do not underestimate your grace.

264
00:25:53,971 --> 00:25:54,972
[sighs]

265
00:25:59,351 --> 00:26:00,352
[sighs]

266
00:26:09,319 --> 00:26:10,320
[sniffs]

267
00:26:18,954 --> 00:26:19,955
[groans]

268
00:26:41,476 --> 00:26:43,645
When you look at me, do
you see an aristocrat?

269
00:26:47,858 --> 00:26:48,859
No.

270
00:26:52,696 --> 00:26:54,740
My husband had more
than one lover.

271
00:26:57,034 --> 00:26:59,912
And when his head was cut off,
all his mistresses watched.

272
00:27:06,835 --> 00:27:10,380
When I was in prison, I was told the
only way to survive was to get pregnant.

273
00:27:12,132 --> 00:27:14,468
So, General…

274
00:27:20,933 --> 00:27:23,519
do I need warn you
of my indiscretions?

275
00:27:25,479 --> 00:27:26,480
No, madame.

276
00:27:28,065 --> 00:27:30,150
Does where I have
been concern you?

277
00:27:35,447 --> 00:27:36,448
No, madame.

278
00:27:54,007 --> 00:27:56,093
If you look down,
you'll see a surprise.

279
00:27:57,469 --> 00:27:59,888
And once you see it,
you will always want it.

280
00:28:14,528 --> 00:28:16,405
[crowd clamoring]

281
00:28:16,488 --> 00:28:19,366
People of France, don't be
fooled. There are more of us!

282
00:28:19,449 --> 00:28:22,369
- [crowd cheers]
- We can occupy this Convention!

283
00:28:23,078 --> 00:28:24,997
Long live the king!

284
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,250
[all chanting] Long live the
king! Long live the king!

285
00:28:28,333 --> 00:28:30,335
[chanting continues]

286
00:28:38,135 --> 00:28:40,012
[chanting continues]

287
00:28:40,095 --> 00:28:42,306
No doubt you've seen the
chaos in the streets.

288
00:28:42,389 --> 00:28:43,390
Yes.

289
00:28:44,308 --> 00:28:46,018
There is a belief
amongst the Committee

290
00:28:46,101 --> 00:28:48,979
that there is an attack on the
Council coming by this mob.

291
00:28:50,314 --> 00:28:54,651
I have less than 4,000 troops and
very little in the way of weapons.

292
00:28:55,694 --> 00:28:59,656
There are 40 cannons in Sablons. I
could have them here in three hours.

293
00:28:59,740 --> 00:29:01,658
This mob is 20,000 strong.

294
00:29:02,701 --> 00:29:03,702
Yes.

295
00:29:07,748 --> 00:29:11,835
As my second-in-command,
what would you intend to do

296
00:29:11,919 --> 00:29:14,630
if this assignment of defense
was transferred to you?

297
00:29:21,386 --> 00:29:24,598
I accept, on the condition that
I command this as I see fit.

298
00:29:24,681 --> 00:29:26,266
Without interruption.

299
00:29:27,809 --> 00:29:29,728
I will not lead as
second-in-command.

300
00:29:32,314 --> 00:29:33,941
[soldiers shouting, clamoring]

301
00:29:38,570 --> 00:29:39,696
Come on!

302
00:29:45,369 --> 00:29:47,871
[chanting, shouting]

303
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:02,886
Fire!

304
00:30:10,352 --> 00:30:12,271
[screaming]

305
00:30:20,195 --> 00:30:22,239
[whimpering]

306
00:30:22,322 --> 00:30:27,369
According to the law of
20th September, 1792,

307
00:30:28,161 --> 00:30:31,164
Marie-Josèphe-Rose Tascher,

308
00:30:31,248 --> 00:30:36,295
born 23rd June,
1767, in Martinique,

309
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:41,133
accepts as her husband
Napoleon Bonaparte,

310
00:30:41,216 --> 00:30:47,216
born February, 1768,
in Ajaccio, Corsica.

311
00:30:49,308 --> 00:30:50,601
Do you consent?

312
00:30:50,684 --> 00:30:51,685
- Yes.
- I do.

313
00:30:52,186 --> 00:30:53,604
[court official] Do you consent?

314
00:30:56,398 --> 00:30:57,816
Yes. I do.

315
00:30:58,609 --> 00:31:01,486
I declare you
united in marriage.

316
00:31:16,043 --> 00:31:18,378
- [kissing]
- [Joséphine chuckling]

317
00:31:22,883 --> 00:31:24,760
[guests] To the savior
of the Republic!

318
00:31:24,843 --> 00:31:26,512
[guest 1] And to
Madam Bonaparte.

319
00:31:26,595 --> 00:31:28,096
[guests] To Madam Bonaparte.

320
00:31:35,062 --> 00:31:37,064
[guests chattering]

321
00:31:46,281 --> 00:31:49,785
This guy right next to me?
[continues indistinctly]

322
00:31:59,878 --> 00:32:02,047
- [Joséphine] Mmm.
- [guest 2] He wants my saber.

323
00:32:07,970 --> 00:32:10,472
[grunting]

324
00:32:18,438 --> 00:32:20,774
Let that good work
make us a son.

325
00:32:20,858 --> 00:32:22,985
[panting]

326
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,663
[sighs, inhales deeply]

327
00:32:36,582 --> 00:32:37,916
[Napoleon] Dear Joséphine,

328
00:32:38,876 --> 00:32:43,088
I follow in the footsteps of
Alexander the Great and Caesar,

329
00:32:43,172 --> 00:32:45,507
as I have been sent
to liberate Egypt.

330
00:32:46,550 --> 00:32:48,802
I have 40,000 men,

331
00:32:48,886 --> 00:32:52,890
and the sights are wondrous,
and the weather is stifling hot.

332
00:32:54,558 --> 00:32:57,978
I have already conquered Italy,
who surrendered without conflict.

333
00:32:58,061 --> 00:33:00,147
[Egyptian officer shouting]

334
00:33:00,230 --> 00:33:03,275
[Napoleon] The Directory has approved
my plan for attacking England

335
00:33:03,358 --> 00:33:04,860
through their eastern empire.

336
00:33:05,819 --> 00:33:09,114
But my achievements seem
slight, as they keep us apart.

337
00:33:09,198 --> 00:33:13,327
[Egyptian soldiers chanting]

338
00:33:20,751 --> 00:33:22,836
[shouting]

339
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:23,921
[grunts]

340
00:33:31,053 --> 00:33:32,137
[horse whinnies]

341
00:33:36,850 --> 00:33:38,060
[Napoleon] Dear wife,

342
00:33:39,019 --> 00:33:41,688
This love I have for
you is a kind of death.

343
00:33:42,606 --> 00:33:44,983
There is no survival
for me except in you.

344
00:33:45,067 --> 00:33:46,485
Hello again.

345
00:33:46,568 --> 00:33:47,819
[Napoleon] What are you doing?

346
00:33:48,403 --> 00:33:49,488
No letters from you.

347
00:33:49,571 --> 00:33:50,614
Good morning, Lucille.

348
00:33:50,697 --> 00:33:53,075
[Napoleon] If you loved me,
you'd write me twice a day.

349
00:33:53,951 --> 00:33:56,370
Tell me there are no
snakes in your bed,

350
00:33:56,453 --> 00:33:59,748
in your legs,
inside what is mine.

351
00:34:00,999 --> 00:34:02,501
You must write me and tell me

352
00:34:02,584 --> 00:34:06,088
that you realize that I love you
beyond the limits of imagination,

353
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,091
that only you can please me.

354
00:34:11,677 --> 00:34:13,637
[indistinct shouting]

355
00:35:55,781 --> 00:35:57,449
[soldier chuckles]

356
00:36:30,107 --> 00:36:34,862
Are there limits to
what I can tell you?

357
00:36:36,905 --> 00:36:37,948
There shouldn't be.

358
00:36:39,992 --> 00:36:42,995
Should I tell you something at the
risk of giving you personal pain?

359
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,249
Yes. [chuckles]

360
00:36:53,213 --> 00:36:57,801
Your wife has taken a lover
named Hippolyte Charles.

361
00:37:09,396 --> 00:37:13,275
[laughing]

362
00:37:18,363 --> 00:37:21,742
- You expect me to believe this? [laughs]
- Yes. [chuckles]

363
00:37:22,743 --> 00:37:25,078
That my wife would
do this to me? Mmm.

364
00:37:26,205 --> 00:37:27,206
Yes.

365
00:37:37,591 --> 00:37:39,968
No dessert for
you. You may leave.

366
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:44,932
I would never lie to you.

367
00:38:01,532 --> 00:38:02,533
How do you know this?

368
00:38:08,580 --> 00:38:12,376
Lucille is my lover.
She writes to me.

369
00:38:13,919 --> 00:38:15,963
Joséphine's lady-in-waiting
is your lover?

370
00:38:27,349 --> 00:38:31,103
Prepare two frigates and two smaller
vessels in the greatest secrecy.

371
00:38:32,563 --> 00:38:33,897
I'm returning home.

372
00:38:34,523 --> 00:38:36,191
- Napoleon…
- Hmm?

373
00:38:36,275 --> 00:38:38,277
…this will be seen as desertion.

374
00:38:40,988 --> 00:38:44,575
General Kléber will be informed of his
succession in command after I've left.

375
00:38:51,290 --> 00:38:53,625
[cheering]

376
00:38:53,709 --> 00:38:56,003
[citizen] Napoleon
the victorious!

377
00:39:04,928 --> 00:39:06,138
[sighs]

378
00:39:21,236 --> 00:39:23,238
[citizens cheering]

379
00:39:28,702 --> 00:39:31,038
[carriage driver]
Hyah, hyah, hyah!

380
00:39:46,553 --> 00:39:47,804
Where's my wife?

381
00:39:47,888 --> 00:39:49,640
She has left to
greet you in Lyon.

382
00:39:49,723 --> 00:39:52,309
- [dog yelps]
- Do not lie to me. Where is my wife?

383
00:39:52,851 --> 00:39:54,603
She left earlier today, General.

384
00:39:54,686 --> 00:39:56,563
- Lyon?
- Yes, sir.

385
00:39:56,647 --> 00:39:59,775
The entire world knows of
my arrival, but not my wife?

386
00:40:04,029 --> 00:40:05,656
[dog whining]

387
00:40:05,739 --> 00:40:07,157
[thunder rumbling]

388
00:40:23,298 --> 00:40:25,801
[groans, gasps]

389
00:40:29,805 --> 00:40:31,682
[whimpers]

390
00:40:35,519 --> 00:40:39,022
[crying, breathing shakily]

391
00:40:40,274 --> 00:40:42,109
[bell rings]

392
00:40:42,776 --> 00:40:45,779
- [dogs barking]
- [thunder rumbling]

393
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,119
[Napoleon] What kind
of creature are you?

394
00:40:55,247 --> 00:40:57,791
How could you care so little

395
00:40:57,875 --> 00:40:59,751
- for me and my feelings?
- [groans]

396
00:41:01,128 --> 00:41:03,714
You are a selfish little pig.

397
00:41:03,797 --> 00:41:04,798
[mutters]

398
00:41:06,175 --> 00:41:08,177
Do you think so lowly of me?

399
00:41:09,511 --> 00:41:11,388
No. I don't.

400
00:41:11,471 --> 00:41:12,472
Then why?

401
00:41:15,225 --> 00:41:18,270
Because you're what? Say it.

402
00:41:22,524 --> 00:41:23,525
I'm sorry.

403
00:41:24,443 --> 00:41:25,694
That's not enough.

404
00:41:25,777 --> 00:41:26,945
[sighs]

405
00:41:27,529 --> 00:41:30,449
- What do you... What do you want me to say?
- I want you to say

406
00:41:30,532 --> 00:41:33,827
that I am the most important
thing in the world!

407
00:41:34,995 --> 00:41:36,163
You are.

408
00:41:36,246 --> 00:41:38,707
- Say it!
- You're... You're... You're... You're...

409
00:41:38,790 --> 00:41:43,462
You're the most important thing
in my life, in the world. You a...

410
00:41:43,545 --> 00:41:46,882
- And without me, you are nothing.
- I'm nothing.

411
00:41:46,965 --> 00:41:48,634
And you will do anything!

412
00:41:49,718 --> 00:41:51,053
I'll do anything.

413
00:41:54,598 --> 00:41:56,225
I'm not built like other men.

414
00:41:59,603 --> 00:42:01,939
And I'm not subject
to petty insecurity.

415
00:42:07,611 --> 00:42:08,904
You're a beast.

416
00:42:13,659 --> 00:42:15,035
I feel sorry for you.

417
00:42:19,373 --> 00:42:20,666
You want to be great?

418
00:42:23,669 --> 00:42:24,670
Hmm?

419
00:42:28,507 --> 00:42:30,926
You are nothing without me.

420
00:42:32,469 --> 00:42:33,470
Say it.

421
00:42:41,854 --> 00:42:42,938
Say it.

422
00:42:49,111 --> 00:42:54,533
You are just a brute that
is nothing without me.

423
00:42:55,909 --> 00:42:59,872
I am just a brute that
is nothing without you.

424
00:42:59,955 --> 00:43:00,831
Yes.

425
00:43:00,914 --> 00:43:06,914
You are nothing without
me or your mother.

426
00:43:07,671 --> 00:43:11,175
[Napoleon breathing heavily]

427
00:43:11,258 --> 00:43:12,342
My mother…

428
00:43:16,513 --> 00:43:17,723
[sighs]

429
00:43:19,183 --> 00:43:20,392
[Joséphine sighs]

430
00:43:27,274 --> 00:43:28,442
Did you have affairs?

431
00:43:31,153 --> 00:43:32,154
Of course I did.

432
00:43:39,494 --> 00:43:40,954
And did you love them?

433
00:43:42,581 --> 00:43:44,625
No. No, I did not.

434
00:43:50,923 --> 00:43:52,049
Were they pretty?

435
00:43:54,259 --> 00:43:56,094
Yes, some of them.

436
00:43:59,097 --> 00:44:00,599
They served their purpose.

437
00:44:02,851 --> 00:44:03,852
More than I do?

438
00:44:04,811 --> 00:44:08,649
They cried less. That
made them more attractive.

439
00:44:12,069 --> 00:44:13,070
Don't...

440
00:44:14,404 --> 00:44:16,949
Don't leave me.
Please, don't leave me.

441
00:44:20,744 --> 00:44:22,246
[whispering] Just
don't leave me.

442
00:44:23,997 --> 00:44:27,084
You don't have to forgive me. Just
promise me you won't leave again.

443
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:36,552
What is it that made you
desert your troops in Egypt?

444
00:44:36,635 --> 00:44:37,636
Shh!

445
00:44:40,055 --> 00:44:41,056
Citizens…

446
00:44:43,350 --> 00:44:44,601
what country are we in?

447
00:44:48,397 --> 00:44:51,400
Because she doesn't resemble
the France that I left.

448
00:44:54,903 --> 00:44:57,990
Who should be responsible for
her governance while I'm away?

449
00:44:59,616 --> 00:45:01,743
Because it is not
you, Citizen Gohier.

450
00:45:02,578 --> 00:45:03,579
It is not you.

451
00:45:03,662 --> 00:45:07,374
It certainly is not you. Although
you're very good at scowling.

452
00:45:10,210 --> 00:45:12,421
It is not you, Barras.

453
00:45:12,504 --> 00:45:13,547
Or you, Talleyrand.

454
00:45:14,965 --> 00:45:15,966
Or you, Sieyès.

455
00:45:17,509 --> 00:45:18,510
So, who?

456
00:45:20,012 --> 00:45:22,639
Who should be responsible?
Fouché, do you have any ideas?

457
00:45:24,016 --> 00:45:25,434
- No?
- [sighs]

458
00:45:27,227 --> 00:45:30,022
I have returned to France
to find her bankrupt.

459
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,775
Printing money that
is spent within hours,

460
00:45:35,694 --> 00:45:37,988
the Austro-Russian
overrun of Italy,

461
00:45:39,072 --> 00:45:41,325
the Anglo-Russian
occupation of Holland,

462
00:45:42,075 --> 00:45:47,956
and what appears to be the imminent
invasion of France herself.

463
00:45:50,918 --> 00:45:54,421
And yet, you accuse
me of desertion.

464
00:45:55,839 --> 00:45:59,218
Added to which the discovery
that my wife is a slut.

465
00:46:12,397 --> 00:46:17,569
The only thing that every French citizen
can agree on is that you are our Caesar.

466
00:46:21,156 --> 00:46:22,157
What do you want?

467
00:46:24,159 --> 00:46:25,577
[chuckles]

468
00:46:26,245 --> 00:46:27,246
Well…

469
00:46:29,706 --> 00:46:33,168
the people would accept my
rule if I have your support.

470
00:46:35,546 --> 00:46:40,175
Like you, though, I believe
that the Directory is corrupt.

471
00:46:41,802 --> 00:46:46,723
But together, we can save this country
from a restoration of the monarchy,

472
00:46:47,683 --> 00:46:49,935
and we can preserve the
ideals of the Revolution.

473
00:46:52,646 --> 00:46:56,400
And I think that a seizure
of power is possible

474
00:46:57,734 --> 00:46:59,570
with your help,
at the right time.

475
00:46:59,653 --> 00:47:02,865
And I think this
is the right time.

476
00:47:03,615 --> 00:47:06,285
So, you expect me
to be your sword?

477
00:47:08,036 --> 00:47:09,037
[chuckles]

478
00:47:12,916 --> 00:47:17,754
I expect that a coup d'état,
well-timed, well-executed…

479
00:47:20,340 --> 00:47:23,302
could transfer power into
the hands of three consuls:

480
00:47:24,219 --> 00:47:25,512
myself, Ducos…

481
00:47:28,098 --> 00:47:29,141
and you.

482
00:47:29,766 --> 00:47:30,767
[scoffs]

483
00:47:31,810 --> 00:47:33,645
I'm inviting you to
the winning side.

484
00:47:34,146 --> 00:47:35,731
[chuckling]

485
00:47:35,814 --> 00:47:36,815
Hmm?

486
00:47:37,941 --> 00:47:40,485
It's a simple letter of
resignation we would like you to...

487
00:47:40,569 --> 00:47:42,696
I am not signing anything.

488
00:47:42,779 --> 00:47:46,074
You can piss before
I sign anything away!

489
00:47:46,158 --> 00:47:47,159
Gentlemen.

490
00:47:49,119 --> 00:47:50,537
[panting]

491
00:47:50,621 --> 00:47:52,414
[grunting]

492
00:47:54,791 --> 00:47:57,544
[shouts] Who's doing this?

493
00:47:58,879 --> 00:48:00,047
Good morning, Paul.

494
00:48:01,381 --> 00:48:02,382
Hmm.

495
00:48:03,217 --> 00:48:05,344
I'm going to make this
very simple for you.

496
00:48:06,345 --> 00:48:09,723
I have documents announcing your
resignation from the Council.

497
00:48:10,349 --> 00:48:13,393
You must retire before you
have your breakfast, please.

498
00:48:14,645 --> 00:48:18,982
Tell them I return with joy to
the ranks of simple citizen.

499
00:48:20,943 --> 00:48:21,944
I shall.

500
00:48:25,864 --> 00:48:27,115
[knocking]

501
00:48:27,199 --> 00:48:29,201
There are some gentlemen
here to see you.

502
00:48:30,035 --> 00:48:33,956
Citizen Moulins, we have a letter
of resignation for you to sign.

503
00:48:34,831 --> 00:48:37,584
- No, no, no. I am eating my breakfast.
- [spouse] No.

504
00:48:37,668 --> 00:48:40,337
I am enjoying a
succulent breakfast.

505
00:48:40,420 --> 00:48:44,758
This is outrageous! I shall finish
my breakfast before you touch me!

506
00:48:44,842 --> 00:48:47,678
- [cries] No!
- Enjoy your breakfast.

507
00:48:48,345 --> 00:48:50,764
[wailing]

508
00:49:09,283 --> 00:49:10,576
[Council member 1] Director!

509
00:49:11,410 --> 00:49:13,787
I believe the time has come
to demand an explanation.

510
00:49:13,871 --> 00:49:15,557
- [Council member 2] Hear, hear!
- [clamoring]

511
00:49:15,581 --> 00:49:20,711
Uh, thi-this emergency session
is to draw a list of nominations

512
00:49:20,794 --> 00:49:25,299
for a... a new Directory
to deal with the threat...

513
00:49:25,382 --> 00:49:27,968
- [members clamoring]
- the threat of the royalists.

514
00:49:28,051 --> 00:49:30,179
We are being asked
to pass a resolution

515
00:49:30,262 --> 00:49:33,098
forming a provisional
government to three councils:

516
00:49:34,224 --> 00:49:37,728
General Bonaparte and Citizen
Sieyès and Roger Ducos.

517
00:49:39,313 --> 00:49:41,440
Where are the five
members of the Directory?

518
00:49:41,523 --> 00:49:43,567
[members clamoring]

519
00:49:43,650 --> 00:49:45,628
[Council member 1] Have
they magically disappeared?

520
00:49:45,652 --> 00:49:48,780
- [Council member 3 chuckles]
- And we are here, surrounded by troops,

521
00:49:48,864 --> 00:49:50,699
isolated far from Paris.

522
00:49:50,782 --> 00:49:52,367
- [clamoring]
- Order! Order!

523
00:49:52,451 --> 00:49:55,287
[Council member 1] This is
becoming increasingly clear:

524
00:49:56,205 --> 00:49:59,082
that your brother,
Napoleon Bonaparte,

525
00:50:00,292 --> 00:50:04,171
with his show of military
might, is acting as an outlaw.

526
00:50:04,254 --> 00:50:07,424
- [members clamoring]
- [Lucien] I vow to solve this matter.

527
00:50:07,508 --> 00:50:11,261
[Council member 1] And that this is a
ridiculous and poorly executed takeover.

528
00:50:11,345 --> 00:50:12,971
A power-hungry upstart.

529
00:50:13,055 --> 00:50:16,016
- [members shouting]
- [Napoleon] Enough! Enough!

530
00:50:16,099 --> 00:50:20,020
If there is any question of what
is happening here, I will answer!

531
00:50:20,103 --> 00:50:21,396
How dare you!

532
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:25,317
This is... You have
violated the constitution!

533
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,444
- You have...
- [Council member 4] Hold him!

534
00:50:28,028 --> 00:50:30,822
- [Council member 5] Get him!
- [struggling]

535
00:50:30,906 --> 00:50:32,616
[all clamoring]

536
00:50:36,787 --> 00:50:38,997
- Arrest him!
- Stop him!

537
00:50:39,081 --> 00:50:40,624
[panting]

538
00:50:40,707 --> 00:50:42,000
Oh, fuck!

539
00:50:42,084 --> 00:50:44,086
[Council members shouting]

540
00:50:45,087 --> 00:50:46,088
[yelps]

541
00:50:47,506 --> 00:50:48,882
[Council member 6] Kill him!

542
00:50:50,008 --> 00:50:51,969
[grunts, panting]

543
00:50:52,970 --> 00:50:56,014
[guards straining]

544
00:50:56,098 --> 00:50:57,808
- [mutters]
- Let me through!

545
00:51:00,853 --> 00:51:02,104
Right. [pants]

546
00:51:02,187 --> 00:51:06,275
We are being terrorized by
deputies armed with daggers!

547
00:51:06,817 --> 00:51:10,279
And these madmen have
outlawed themselves

548
00:51:10,362 --> 00:51:12,990
by their attempt on the
liberty of this country!

549
00:51:13,073 --> 00:51:15,576
- They're trying to kill me!
- They're trying to kill him.

550
00:51:16,076 --> 00:51:18,161
- [Council member 7] Open these doors!
- [grunts]

551
00:51:20,497 --> 00:51:21,498
[Lucien grunts]

552
00:51:22,374 --> 00:51:24,042
[Council member 3]
Let us out of here!

553
00:51:24,126 --> 00:51:28,964
I will kill my brother if he betrays
the freedom of the French people!

554
00:51:30,424 --> 00:51:31,925
Get in there now!

555
00:51:32,009 --> 00:51:34,428
- [Lucien] Fuck.
- [guards shouting]

556
00:51:38,098 --> 00:51:40,225
[guard 1] Move,
move. Get back. Back.

557
00:51:41,518 --> 00:51:42,895
[guard 2] Move it. Move it!

558
00:51:44,771 --> 00:51:47,900
- [guard 3] Back. Move back.
- [guard 4] Move back. Out of the way.

559
00:51:48,567 --> 00:51:50,652
[guard 5] Move, move. Backwards.

560
00:51:55,365 --> 00:51:57,034
[Council members gasping]

561
00:51:57,117 --> 00:51:58,452
Good luck, brother.

562
00:52:02,789 --> 00:52:04,791
[Napoleon panting]

563
00:52:09,171 --> 00:52:10,172
Stand aside.

564
00:52:23,101 --> 00:52:24,353
Shall we vote?

565
00:52:27,856 --> 00:52:28,857
Where are we going?

566
00:52:28,941 --> 00:52:31,568
[people cheering]

567
00:52:31,652 --> 00:52:33,570
All our harsh words
are behind us.

568
00:52:36,406 --> 00:52:38,951
I need you to be my
most tender friend.

569
00:52:42,788 --> 00:52:45,958
Over this door is our destiny.

570
00:52:49,878 --> 00:52:52,506
[cheering continues]

571
00:54:02,701 --> 00:54:04,703
[French officer] Present arms!

572
00:54:17,257 --> 00:54:19,343
- [aristocrat] First Consul.
- My lord.

573
00:54:20,344 --> 00:54:21,345
Milady.

574
00:54:22,596 --> 00:54:23,764
[inhales sharply]

575
00:54:25,265 --> 00:54:27,142
- Citizen Bonaparte.
- Citizen Bonaparte.

576
00:54:27,226 --> 00:54:28,769
- First Consul.
- Citizen Bonaparte.

577
00:54:28,852 --> 00:54:30,062
First Consul.

578
00:54:33,607 --> 00:54:34,900
Come, little one.

579
00:54:35,609 --> 00:54:38,529
You get into the bed
of your master's.

580
00:54:39,446 --> 00:54:41,281
[chuckling]

581
00:54:43,700 --> 00:54:45,702
[aristocrats chattering]

582
00:54:51,959 --> 00:54:54,753
Hello, madame!

583
00:54:54,837 --> 00:54:56,421
Hello, good evening.

584
00:55:01,969 --> 00:55:03,595
Mother, the Duke of Avignon.

585
00:55:03,679 --> 00:55:04,847
It's good to meet you.

586
00:55:14,857 --> 00:55:17,359
Ah. Could this be Joséphine?

587
00:55:18,569 --> 00:55:21,196
- Mother, Joséphine. Joséphine, Mother.
- [Letizia] Good to see you.

588
00:55:21,738 --> 00:55:23,991
Oh, it's Charles.

589
00:55:24,950 --> 00:55:25,951
This way.

590
00:55:35,586 --> 00:55:39,173
[scribe] "Your Majesty, England and
France are wasting their prosperity."

591
00:55:39,256 --> 00:55:40,256
Let me try again.

592
00:55:42,676 --> 00:55:45,304
- Your Royal Majesty, England and France…
- [clears throat]

593
00:55:45,387 --> 00:55:48,182
- are wasting their prosperity…
- Your... Your Majesty.

594
00:55:48,807 --> 00:55:49,975
What did I say?

595
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:54,271
[stammers] "Your... Your...
Your Royal Majesty."

596
00:55:55,522 --> 00:55:57,649
"Your Royal Ma"...
[inhales deeply]

597
00:55:57,733 --> 00:56:01,528
Your Majesty, England and France
are wasting their prosperity.

598
00:56:03,906 --> 00:56:06,325
I am not ashamed to
take the initiative.

599
00:56:06,408 --> 00:56:09,161
I have, I think, sufficiently
proven to the whole world

600
00:56:09,244 --> 00:56:12,080
that I do not fear
the chances of war.

601
00:56:13,415 --> 00:56:17,711
But peace is my heartfelt
wish for England and France.

602
00:56:19,129 --> 00:56:20,130
Read it back to me.

603
00:56:21,048 --> 00:56:24,551
I have notified all foreign powers
of your accession to the Consul,

604
00:56:24,635 --> 00:56:28,138
I have addressed letters to
all diplomatic agents abroad,

605
00:56:28,222 --> 00:56:32,142
and I understand that you have made
friendly overtures of peace to England.

606
00:56:32,226 --> 00:56:33,519
Ca-Caulaincourt.

607
00:56:34,561 --> 00:56:37,356
What I need from you is
a better understanding

608
00:56:37,439 --> 00:56:39,233
of the Russian Tsar Alexander.

609
00:56:39,942 --> 00:56:42,778
Would you consider the tsar
an ally to England or France?

610
00:56:44,571 --> 00:56:48,575
Well, I would think that his trade
with England is more beneficial to him

611
00:56:48,659 --> 00:56:50,077
than his trade with France.

612
00:56:50,661 --> 00:56:54,790
And do you have a sense of British
influence in the Russian courts?

613
00:56:54,873 --> 00:56:57,376
[Caulaincourt] I do not, but
I imagine it is quite robust.

614
00:56:58,669 --> 00:56:59,753
Robust?

615
00:57:04,842 --> 00:57:07,678
What kind of man is
he? Describe him.

616
00:57:09,263 --> 00:57:11,098
Well, he's young. [sighs]

617
00:57:12,891 --> 00:57:14,393
- He's vain.
- [scoffs]

618
00:57:15,477 --> 00:57:17,479
He's popular, and he
wishes to remain so.

619
00:57:17,563 --> 00:57:18,647
He's popular?

620
00:57:21,441 --> 00:57:22,442
Really?

621
00:57:22,526 --> 00:57:25,654
His greatest fear is to be killed
in his bed, like his father.

622
00:57:25,737 --> 00:57:27,489
[laughs]

623
00:57:28,490 --> 00:57:32,786
This makes him dangerously fickle
to whoever last has his attention.

624
00:57:33,912 --> 00:57:36,999
So he needs an ally that
he can also call a friend.

625
00:57:43,964 --> 00:57:45,174
No more bets.

626
00:57:48,844 --> 00:57:50,220
What a surprise.

627
00:57:50,888 --> 00:57:52,264
How nice to see you out.

628
00:57:53,348 --> 00:57:54,600
Excuse me, gentlemen.

629
00:57:55,100 --> 00:57:57,603
Good evening. I'm just
trying to lose some money.

630
00:57:57,686 --> 00:58:01,273
Ah. Well, after this hand, why
don't you come and join me?

631
00:58:01,356 --> 00:58:03,066
I'm at my usual table.

632
00:58:03,150 --> 00:58:04,318
That's a lovely idea.

633
00:58:06,361 --> 00:58:07,362
Good evening.

634
00:58:08,488 --> 00:58:10,782
Mmm. Did you hear?

635
00:58:12,784 --> 00:58:17,706
Your Majesty received a letter of
peace from the First Consul today.

636
00:58:19,583 --> 00:58:23,170
Monsieur Talleyrand,
if I may be honest?

637
00:58:23,253 --> 00:58:24,254
Of course.

638
00:58:24,338 --> 00:58:29,092
Austria's coalition with England is in
such a strong position against France,

639
00:58:29,176 --> 00:58:33,055
that these peace
overtures are clearly

640
00:58:33,138 --> 00:58:35,516
only for your handling
of French public opinion.

641
00:58:35,599 --> 00:58:38,519
[chuckles] Oh, my friend.

642
00:58:40,562 --> 00:58:42,648
- You know me so well.
- [diplomat chuckles]

643
00:58:43,398 --> 00:58:46,860
Yes, it is true. It is public
opinion Napoleon is after.

644
00:58:46,944 --> 00:58:49,905
But my warning to you is
that he's as hungry for it

645
00:58:49,988 --> 00:58:52,074
as any man in the
history of the world.

646
00:58:52,157 --> 00:58:53,951
So my suggestion, with respect,

647
00:58:54,034 --> 00:58:57,788
would be to take this little
offering of peace from him…

648
00:59:00,832 --> 00:59:06,547
or suffer the consequences from
a man bent on peace at any cost.

649
00:59:09,091 --> 00:59:11,802
The English ambassador, Lord
Whitworth, has arrived, Consul.

650
00:59:20,686 --> 00:59:23,897
Do not look at me as if you
don't know what I'm about to say.

651
00:59:25,607 --> 00:59:28,318
Are you aware of my letter
of peace to your king?

652
00:59:29,111 --> 00:59:30,153
I am not.

653
00:59:31,613 --> 00:59:32,906
Shall I repeat it?

654
00:59:32,990 --> 00:59:36,660
[inhales deeply] No,
you may not. [sighs]

655
00:59:36,743 --> 00:59:39,121
Take this as a
warning to your king.

656
00:59:39,204 --> 00:59:41,874
I will keep you
guessing and scared.

657
00:59:41,957 --> 00:59:44,084
You will watch your
borders and your back,

658
00:59:44,168 --> 00:59:47,087
and your manners are bound,
sooner or later, to be French.

659
00:59:47,171 --> 00:59:49,548
I will offer no more
letters of peace,

660
00:59:49,631 --> 00:59:54,052
and I will take the lack of a swift
reply as an act of disrespect!

661
00:59:54,136 --> 00:59:57,264
You think you're so great
because you have boats!

662
01:00:01,101 --> 01:00:03,937
'Tis a shame such a great
man should have no manners.

663
01:00:17,326 --> 01:00:18,327
Yes?

664
01:00:20,913 --> 01:00:21,914
Are you pleased?

665
01:00:24,583 --> 01:00:27,085
Are you about to tell me
something that will make me angry?

666
01:00:28,045 --> 01:00:29,421
Let's hope not.

667
01:00:29,505 --> 01:00:34,134
The European families think nothing
more of you than a Corsican thug.

668
01:00:34,885 --> 01:00:36,595
- Therefore…
- [chuckles]

669
01:00:36,678 --> 01:00:40,349
…I'm going to suggest something
that's been a long time arriving.

670
01:00:41,391 --> 01:00:46,063
I suggest that you abandon your
role as First Consul of France

671
01:00:47,022 --> 01:00:51,443
in exchange for the title
"Victorious Consul."

672
01:00:53,487 --> 01:00:55,906
By another name, "king."

673
01:00:55,989 --> 01:00:58,784
[chuckles]

674
01:00:58,867 --> 01:00:59,868
What?

675
01:00:59,952 --> 01:01:02,329
[scoffs] "King."

676
01:01:04,206 --> 01:01:05,749
Uh, yes, king.

677
01:01:08,627 --> 01:01:09,628
King?

678
01:01:20,514 --> 01:01:23,392
- [chuckles]
- Mmm.

679
01:01:23,475 --> 01:01:25,477
[murmuring]

680
01:01:29,648 --> 01:01:31,525
My hair has been set.

681
01:01:31,608 --> 01:01:34,403
- [murmuring continues]
- The way you like it.

682
01:01:36,864 --> 01:01:39,366
- [whines]
- [scoffs] Oh, you filthy man.

683
01:01:39,449 --> 01:01:40,993
My hair has been set now.

684
01:01:41,577 --> 01:01:44,037
[murmuring continues]

685
01:01:45,289 --> 01:01:47,541
I have the most beautiful wife.

686
01:01:47,624 --> 01:01:49,543
- [whines]
- I... All right, come on then.

687
01:01:52,588 --> 01:01:53,589
Hat off.

688
01:01:55,966 --> 01:01:56,967
Mmm.

689
01:01:58,927 --> 01:02:00,053
[grunts]

690
01:02:00,804 --> 01:02:02,598
Give me your hand.
Give me your hand.

691
01:02:03,682 --> 01:02:05,517
- You feel that?
- [sighs] What?

692
01:02:07,144 --> 01:02:08,270
Can you feel that?

693
01:02:08,353 --> 01:02:10,731
- That's yours. That's yours.
- [breathing heavily]

694
01:02:10,814 --> 01:02:11,940
It's yours.

695
01:02:12,024 --> 01:02:13,025
Thank you.

696
01:02:14,943 --> 01:02:16,820
[grunts, breathing heavily]

697
01:02:26,705 --> 01:02:28,415
[chuckles] Oh.

698
01:02:30,292 --> 01:02:31,502
[Napoleon] Mmm.

699
01:02:34,421 --> 01:02:37,382
Oh. [chuckles] Stop.

700
01:02:38,550 --> 01:02:39,927
Why aren't you pregnant?

701
01:02:44,223 --> 01:02:47,518
Is that a question, or
is that an accusation?

702
01:02:48,519 --> 01:02:49,937
- [Napoleon] Mmm.
- [sighs]

703
01:02:51,730 --> 01:02:52,940
It was a question.

704
01:02:53,732 --> 01:02:55,234
[grunts, chuckles]

705
01:02:55,317 --> 01:02:56,527
Now it's an accusation.

706
01:03:00,239 --> 01:03:03,242
Well, I've seen Dr. Corvisart,
and he has no answer.

707
01:03:07,621 --> 01:03:10,290
Only that I do what Madame
de Rémusat has done.

708
01:03:12,668 --> 01:03:13,669
[Napoleon] Which is?

709
01:03:13,752 --> 01:03:16,213
[sighs] Which is…

710
01:03:18,799 --> 01:03:21,510
along with hopeful thinking
and a bit of red wine,

711
01:03:21,593 --> 01:03:24,429
he suggested I take the
waters at Aix-la-Chapelle.

712
01:03:27,891 --> 01:03:29,101
And why haven't you?

713
01:03:30,477 --> 01:03:33,355
As wife of the First Consul,
I haven't found the time.

714
01:03:33,438 --> 01:03:36,358
I spend many hours
cleaning up after you.

715
01:03:40,904 --> 01:03:42,364
Find the time.

716
01:03:44,032 --> 01:03:47,536
[inhales sharply] I don't need to explain
to you the importance of this, do I?

717
01:03:48,495 --> 01:03:49,788
What, you want an heir?

718
01:03:50,581 --> 01:03:52,332
I want one now.

719
01:03:52,416 --> 01:03:54,126
[smacking lips]

720
01:03:54,209 --> 01:03:58,380
- [chuckling]
- [Napoleon growling]

721
01:04:05,512 --> 01:04:07,723
- [growling continues]
- [laughing]

722
01:04:10,017 --> 01:04:13,061
Oh, my God. [gasps, chuckles]

723
01:04:15,230 --> 01:04:16,648
- [growls]
- [chuckles]

724
01:04:16,732 --> 01:04:18,734
[choir singing in Latin]

725
01:04:54,645 --> 01:04:56,480
[song ends]

726
01:05:00,150 --> 01:05:02,861
May God affirm
you on his throne,

727
01:05:04,196 --> 01:05:09,159
and Christ give you to rule
with him in his eternal kingdom.

728
01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:30,556
[attendees gasping]

729
01:05:35,227 --> 01:05:38,522
I found the crown of
France in the gutter.

730
01:05:40,524 --> 01:05:44,862
I picked it up with the tip
of my sword and cleaned it…

731
01:05:46,947 --> 01:05:49,074
and place it atop my own head.

732
01:05:50,868 --> 01:05:52,870
[attendees murmuring]

733
01:06:15,684 --> 01:06:20,981
The most glorious, the
most august Napoleon,

734
01:06:21,064 --> 01:06:23,609
emperor of the French,

735
01:06:23,692 --> 01:06:27,029
is crowned and enthroned!

736
01:06:27,863 --> 01:06:29,573
Long live the emperor!

737
01:06:29,656 --> 01:06:32,159
[all] Long live the emperor!

738
01:06:32,743 --> 01:06:34,661
Long live the emperor!

739
01:06:35,662 --> 01:06:38,290
[choir singing in Latin]

740
01:07:07,903 --> 01:07:09,905
[tapping]

741
01:07:14,701 --> 01:07:16,495
[Napoleon] I do not
support this idea.

742
01:07:16,578 --> 01:07:19,248
You suggest divorce
after years of debate.

743
01:07:19,331 --> 01:07:21,124
You can see that
it has me divided.

744
01:07:21,208 --> 01:07:22,209
[Talleyrand] Mmm.

745
01:07:23,836 --> 01:07:25,254
[sighs]

746
01:07:25,337 --> 01:07:27,089
I am not ambitious.

747
01:07:27,172 --> 01:07:29,007
I've never declared
war with anyone.

748
01:07:32,761 --> 01:07:33,762
No.

749
01:07:36,014 --> 01:07:40,352
You are the greatest leader
in the history of the world

750
01:07:40,435 --> 01:07:42,396
and the world's only
chance at peace.

751
01:07:47,442 --> 01:07:51,363
The security of the empire and peace
in the world depends upon an heir.

752
01:07:51,864 --> 01:07:52,865
[sighs]

753
01:07:55,284 --> 01:07:57,286
[dinner guests chattering]

754
01:07:59,037 --> 01:08:02,207
[Joséphine] It was
an option. [chuckles]

755
01:08:02,291 --> 01:08:03,792
And I said it at the time.

756
01:08:11,049 --> 01:08:12,676
[Napoleon] Are you
enjoying yourself?

757
01:08:14,636 --> 01:08:18,098
I'm going to war to
defend our people,

758
01:08:18,182 --> 01:08:20,642
and my wife cannot
provide me an heir.

759
01:08:24,354 --> 01:08:27,024
If you do not bear
me a child tonight,

760
01:08:28,817 --> 01:08:30,359
there will be a divorce.

761
01:08:32,738 --> 01:08:36,116
Hasn't been enough lovemaking
in this home to bear a child.

762
01:08:37,201 --> 01:08:38,535
Yes, there has.

763
01:08:39,745 --> 01:08:43,372
- [Joséphine sighs]
- There have been years of it. Years.

764
01:08:45,125 --> 01:08:46,542
And with more than just me.

765
01:08:47,336 --> 01:08:51,423
- [inhales deeply] Oh.
- And still you are empty.

766
01:08:51,506 --> 01:08:53,008
And you're fat.

767
01:08:54,801 --> 01:08:58,055
I enjoy my meals. I do.

768
01:08:58,971 --> 01:09:00,724
Destiny has brought me here.

769
01:09:00,807 --> 01:09:03,268
Destiny has brought
me this lamb chop.

770
01:09:06,854 --> 01:09:07,898
[yelps]

771
01:09:28,710 --> 01:09:29,711
Joséphine.

772
01:09:32,464 --> 01:09:33,465
[sniffles]

773
01:09:34,258 --> 01:09:35,591
- Come then.
- [sniffles]

774
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:37,761
Come.

775
01:09:41,223 --> 01:09:43,140
[sighs]

776
01:09:44,475 --> 01:09:48,354
I love your talents
and your taste.

777
01:09:50,607 --> 01:09:53,277
And while I'm away, I
will miss your grace.

778
01:09:53,777 --> 01:09:55,320
- [sighs]
- And your dignity.

779
01:09:56,613 --> 01:09:58,407
And I will come back to you.

780
01:10:00,576 --> 01:10:01,577
[sighs]

781
01:10:12,254 --> 01:10:13,255
[horse whinnying]

782
01:10:13,338 --> 01:10:15,340
[Austrian soldiers chattering]

783
01:10:18,969 --> 01:10:21,221
[Austrian soldier shouts]

784
01:10:27,686 --> 01:10:29,813
[Austrian soldier shouts]

785
01:10:32,441 --> 01:10:34,610
To today's victory. Hmm?

786
01:10:35,235 --> 01:10:37,237
Look, I'm always here
for you, Francis.

787
01:10:38,238 --> 01:10:41,533
But I must admit, I'm overwhelmed with
the excitement of the battlefield.

788
01:10:42,576 --> 01:10:44,369
I should not deceive
you, Alexander.

789
01:10:44,453 --> 01:10:47,581
This battle against him will
be brutal and terrifying.

790
01:10:50,667 --> 01:10:52,294
[sighs]

791
01:11:04,681 --> 01:11:06,683
[French soldiers shouting]

792
01:11:08,685 --> 01:11:10,812
[grunting]

793
01:11:12,189 --> 01:11:14,233
- [soldiers grunting]
- [officer] Come on!

794
01:11:14,316 --> 01:11:16,193
Get in defensive position!

795
01:11:26,662 --> 01:11:28,455
[Napoleon] My good
wife, Joséphine.

796
01:11:29,248 --> 01:11:32,960
My God, it's cold here.
I miss your warmth.

797
01:11:34,378 --> 01:11:38,006
On this day, we celebrate the first
anniversary of our coronation.

798
01:11:39,842 --> 01:11:42,511
My previous ally has now
joined with my enemy.

799
01:11:43,637 --> 01:11:47,474
The Russian Tsar Alexander joined
forces with the prince of Austria.

800
01:11:48,559 --> 01:11:51,186
I have heard that he's been
studying the art of war

801
01:11:51,270 --> 01:11:53,021
and trying to emulate
my battle tactics.

802
01:11:53,105 --> 01:11:54,022
More fires.

803
01:11:54,106 --> 01:11:55,524
He tries to copy me,

804
01:11:56,191 --> 01:11:58,944
but he is a little boy who
will make a terrible mistake.

805
01:12:00,112 --> 01:12:04,074
I am certain I will bring the laurels of
another glorious victory to my army today.

806
01:12:05,117 --> 01:12:07,286
Yours, Napoleon.

807
01:12:07,369 --> 01:12:10,497
- [shouts]
- [French soldiers cheering]

808
01:12:22,759 --> 01:12:25,596
Hey, tie it from the back.
Peg that corner to the ground.

809
01:12:25,679 --> 01:12:26,680
That's it.

810
01:12:30,726 --> 01:12:33,687
[French soldier shivering]

811
01:12:33,770 --> 01:12:36,148
Fuck. [inhales shakily]

812
01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:02,090
[Russian soldier
speaking Russian]

813
01:13:04,718 --> 01:13:06,762
- [horse blusters]
- [speaking Russian]

814
01:13:29,243 --> 01:13:31,662
[breathing heavily]

815
01:13:31,745 --> 01:13:33,038
- Your Majesty.
- Mmm?

816
01:13:33,997 --> 01:13:35,499
We are discovered.

817
01:13:37,084 --> 01:13:38,085
Good.

818
01:13:39,503 --> 01:13:40,671
Tell the men to rest.

819
01:13:57,271 --> 01:13:58,272
[sighs]

820
01:13:59,565 --> 01:14:02,860
[Russian soldier
speaking Russian]

821
01:14:11,118 --> 01:14:16,123
I-N-F-S.

822
01:14:17,958 --> 01:14:19,209
Infantry sighted.

823
01:14:33,348 --> 01:14:36,852
I-M-T.

824
01:14:39,396 --> 01:14:40,606
Imminent!

825
01:14:40,689 --> 01:14:43,233
[clamoring]

826
01:14:43,317 --> 01:14:45,360
Stand to!

827
01:14:45,444 --> 01:14:48,113
- [officer 1] Stand to!
- [officer 2] Stand to!

828
01:14:48,197 --> 01:14:49,865
- Stand to!
- Stand to.

829
01:14:49,948 --> 01:14:53,160
- [officer 3] Wake up, men. Get ready!
- [soldiers] Stand to!

830
01:14:53,243 --> 01:14:54,912
[officer 4] Come on, get up!

831
01:14:57,331 --> 01:14:58,999
[panting]

832
01:15:01,126 --> 01:15:03,128
[cavalry approaching]

833
01:15:06,798 --> 01:15:09,218
[breathing shakily]

834
01:15:09,301 --> 01:15:11,553
[Austrian soldier shouting]

835
01:15:22,397 --> 01:15:23,607
Wait, wait.

836
01:15:24,149 --> 01:15:25,150
[officer 5] Ready!

837
01:15:25,234 --> 01:15:28,820
Wait! Let them think they
have the higher ground.

838
01:15:42,084 --> 01:15:44,086
[cavalry approaching]

839
01:15:49,383 --> 01:15:51,385
[Austrian soldier 1 shouting]

840
01:15:53,929 --> 01:15:55,931
[Austrian soldier 2 shouting]

841
01:15:57,391 --> 01:15:59,393
[all shouting]

842
01:16:14,867 --> 01:16:16,076
[French soldier 1] Fire!

843
01:16:19,371 --> 01:16:20,622
Fire away!

844
01:16:28,338 --> 01:16:29,607
[French soldier 2] Fire at will!

845
01:16:29,631 --> 01:16:32,467
[all shouting]

846
01:16:36,054 --> 01:16:37,139
Send in the infantry.

847
01:16:37,222 --> 01:16:39,600
Take their position on the
higher ground. At the double.

848
01:16:39,683 --> 01:16:42,477
- [French soldier 3] Take the ground!
- [all shouting]

849
01:16:51,445 --> 01:16:53,447
[gunfire]

850
01:17:14,426 --> 01:17:17,137
Cavalry from the west.
Pierce their flanks.

851
01:17:31,151 --> 01:17:34,238
Retreat! Withdraw!

852
01:17:34,321 --> 01:17:35,822
[Austrian soldier 3] Withdraw!

853
01:17:47,501 --> 01:17:48,961
[Austrian soldier
4] It's a trap!

854
01:17:53,507 --> 01:17:55,175
Retreat!

855
01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:00,722
[horses whinnying]

856
01:18:08,188 --> 01:18:09,189
[grunts]

857
01:18:10,691 --> 01:18:12,693
[panting]

858
01:18:16,989 --> 01:18:18,448
[shouts]

859
01:18:33,463 --> 01:18:36,592
- [Napoleon] Uncover the cannons.
- [French officer] Cannons!

860
01:18:40,888 --> 01:18:43,140
- [Napoleon] Fire!
- [French soldiers] Fire!

861
01:18:47,019 --> 01:18:48,179
[French soldier 4] Reloading!

862
01:18:56,737 --> 01:18:57,863
[screams]

863
01:18:58,822 --> 01:19:00,908
[screaming]

864
01:19:06,330 --> 01:19:08,040
[French soldier 5]
Keep to the one side.

865
01:19:19,718 --> 01:19:21,428
[Austrian general
1] Off the ice!

866
01:19:28,810 --> 01:19:30,812
[screaming]

867
01:19:52,751 --> 01:19:54,753
[screaming]

868
01:19:56,713 --> 01:19:59,091
[grunting, screams]

869
01:19:59,174 --> 01:20:01,176
[grunting, groaning]

870
01:20:11,603 --> 01:20:14,314
Renounce, sir. We're pinned in.

871
01:20:16,900 --> 01:20:19,403
Off the ice! Withdraw!

872
01:20:26,285 --> 01:20:27,494
Cut off their retreat.

873
01:20:30,914 --> 01:20:32,791
Hyah, hyah, hyah!

874
01:20:38,505 --> 01:20:41,550
Hyah, hyah, hyah!

875
01:20:43,385 --> 01:20:45,387

876
01:20:47,598 --> 01:20:48,932
[gasps]

877
01:21:18,754 --> 01:21:21,548
Francis. So nice to
finally meet you.

878
01:21:22,132 --> 01:21:23,717
Please come in where it's warm.

879
01:21:24,551 --> 01:21:26,970
- Thank you.
- You must forgive me.

880
01:21:27,054 --> 01:21:29,556
This has been my only palace
for the last two months.

881
01:21:30,766 --> 01:21:34,770
Seems very agreeable. You
make excellent use of it.

882
01:21:34,853 --> 01:21:36,813
Well, we do what we
can on the battlefield.

883
01:21:37,606 --> 01:21:39,900
- Yes, we do, don't we?
- Mm-hmm.

884
01:21:39,983 --> 01:21:42,152
It's nice to finally
meet another emperor.

885
01:21:43,445 --> 01:21:45,697
Uh, where, may I
ask, is Alexander?

886
01:21:45,781 --> 01:21:48,158
Are we waiting for his
arrival before we get started?

887
01:21:48,242 --> 01:21:51,954
I do not believe he
will be joining us.

888
01:21:52,037 --> 01:21:54,540
- He's beside himself with rage.
- [sighs]

889
01:21:57,000 --> 01:22:01,213
I realize I must compliment you for
making me commit an enormous error.

890
01:22:02,297 --> 01:22:04,049
- An error?
- [Napoleon] Yes.

891
01:22:05,175 --> 01:22:06,593
What error have you made?

892
01:22:08,595 --> 01:22:11,723
To be speaking with you here and
accepting this invitation for peace,

893
01:22:12,599 --> 01:22:14,309
I have not followed
up my victory.

894
01:22:15,769 --> 01:22:19,022
I could have taken the whole
Russian and Austrian army prisoners.

895
01:22:21,942 --> 01:22:22,943
Yes.

896
01:22:23,652 --> 01:22:25,654
But after all, there
will be less tears.

897
01:22:27,197 --> 01:22:31,535
And I know you will remember
this gesture of kindness. Yes?

898
01:22:32,953 --> 01:22:34,580
Thank you. [sighs]

899
01:22:38,625 --> 01:22:39,626
Toast?

900
01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:54,760
To friendship, a glorious peace
and the best interest of Europe.

901
01:23:01,481 --> 01:23:03,442
Mmm. Burgundy.

902
01:23:03,525 --> 01:23:05,986
- [classical music playing]
- [chattering, laughing]

903
01:23:24,755 --> 01:23:27,216
- [dog whines]
- [whines] Hold on.

904
01:23:27,299 --> 01:23:28,383
- [barks]
- Hey, whoa, whoa!

905
01:23:28,467 --> 01:23:30,427
- [chuckling]
- Whoa, we don't say woof.

906
01:23:30,511 --> 01:23:33,639
Okay. [babbles]

907
01:23:33,722 --> 01:23:36,808
That's my boy. Attaboy.

908
01:23:36,892 --> 01:23:39,728
Come here. Come here.
Sit, sit, sit. [babbling]

909
01:23:39,811 --> 01:23:41,313
- [dog barks]
- [barks]

910
01:23:54,117 --> 01:23:57,204
It is time to put this
mystery to rest, Emperor.

911
01:23:57,746 --> 01:24:00,541
I want to know if
it's you or Joséphine.

912
01:24:01,124 --> 01:24:07,124
And to that end, we will conduct
a very practical experiment.

913
01:24:10,759 --> 01:24:13,929
At the end of the
hallway... Take this...

914
01:24:14,805 --> 01:24:18,767
Waiting for you, undressed,
ready to receive,

915
01:24:19,726 --> 01:24:24,189
is 18-year-old Eléonore
Denuelle de La Plaigne.

916
01:24:27,359 --> 01:24:29,528
She's brunette with brown eyes.

917
01:24:30,112 --> 01:24:32,281
And the object of this, well,

918
01:24:32,364 --> 01:24:37,619
hardly unpleasant task is to
see if you can father a child.

919
01:24:38,996 --> 01:24:40,998
- And then we will have an answer…
- Mmm.

920
01:24:41,081 --> 01:24:42,833
…to this nagging question

921
01:24:42,916 --> 01:24:47,963
of who is keeping who from an
heir to the throne of France.

922
01:24:51,925 --> 01:24:52,926
[sighs]

923
01:24:53,468 --> 01:24:54,595
Shall we go?

924
01:24:55,220 --> 01:24:56,555
May I have another, please?

925
01:25:43,977 --> 01:25:45,979
[chattering, laughing]

926
01:25:56,406 --> 01:25:58,033
The girl is pregnant.

927
01:25:58,116 --> 01:26:00,327
You made her
pregnant. [chuckles]

928
01:26:01,995 --> 01:26:02,996
[Napoleon] Mm-hmm.

929
01:26:03,080 --> 01:26:05,082
[chattering, laughing]

930
01:26:13,382 --> 01:26:15,008
Uh, I know I didn't see her.

931
01:26:15,092 --> 01:26:16,927
[speaking indistinctly]

932
01:26:22,224 --> 01:26:24,393
When are you going
to insist we divorce?

933
01:26:26,103 --> 01:26:27,896
Oh, isn't that wonderful?

934
01:26:29,731 --> 01:26:33,777
From the only woman that I've ever
loved and given all that I've conquered.

935
01:26:33,861 --> 01:26:39,825
I'm just too tired to wait for you
to tell me what I know is coming.

936
01:26:42,244 --> 01:26:43,495
If you insist.

937
01:26:46,456 --> 01:26:48,959
[sighs] I'll make
it easy for you.

938
01:26:53,505 --> 01:26:57,926
[sighs] I know you will
have a bastard child.

939
01:27:03,140 --> 01:27:06,935
If I succeed in making the birth of
a boy that I shall call my own son,

940
01:27:07,853 --> 01:27:11,815
I want you as a witness to pretend
the confinement of the empress.

941
01:27:14,026 --> 01:27:15,235
[stammers] Your Highness,

942
01:27:15,319 --> 01:27:18,780
you are asking me to lie about the
status of the mother of your heir.

943
01:27:20,490 --> 01:27:22,492
That is another way
of putting it, yes.

944
01:27:22,576 --> 01:27:23,577
[scoffs]

945
01:27:24,745 --> 01:27:30,501
Emperor… [sighs] …it is my
honor and my duty, of course,

946
01:27:30,584 --> 01:27:32,503
to do as you require of me.

947
01:27:32,586 --> 01:27:36,465
But if asked, I cannot contain
that which I know to be the truth.

948
01:27:37,508 --> 01:27:39,510
And painful though it is,

949
01:27:39,593 --> 01:27:44,097
the truth is that the empress is no
longer capable of bearing you a child.

950
01:27:55,442 --> 01:27:58,237
My good Joséphine. [sighs]

951
01:27:59,696 --> 01:28:00,697
Hmm?

952
01:28:02,491 --> 01:28:04,117
You know how I've loved you.

953
01:28:07,079 --> 01:28:10,457
It is you, to you alone,

954
01:28:11,667 --> 01:28:15,254
that I owe the few moments of
happiness I have known in this world.

955
01:28:15,337 --> 01:28:16,380
Hmm.

956
01:28:19,216 --> 01:28:22,970
My destiny is more
powerful than my will.

957
01:28:25,055 --> 01:28:31,055
And my affections must yield
to the interests of my people.

958
01:28:31,645 --> 01:28:33,647
[chuckling]

959
01:28:52,708 --> 01:28:55,961
The imperial decree for the
dissolution of the marriage

960
01:28:57,129 --> 01:29:00,841
between the Emperor Napoleon
and the Empress Joséphine.

961
01:29:05,304 --> 01:29:06,305
[sniffles]

962
01:29:09,474 --> 01:29:14,771
"My people desire that this throne,
where providence has placed me,

963
01:29:15,314 --> 01:29:16,982
would be given to my children.

964
01:29:18,734 --> 01:29:22,905
However, I have lost hope of
having children from my marriage

965
01:29:22,988 --> 01:29:25,657
to my beloved wife,
Empress Joséphine.

966
01:29:26,658 --> 01:29:30,746
I have then been led to listen
only to the good of the state

967
01:29:30,829 --> 01:29:34,249
and to want the dissolution
of years of my life."

968
01:29:34,333 --> 01:29:35,334
[Josephine chuckles]

969
01:29:38,962 --> 01:29:39,963
[grunts]

970
01:29:41,298 --> 01:29:46,011
You have embellished
my life for 15 years.

971
01:29:48,263 --> 01:29:53,685
The memories of which will remain
forever etched in my heart.

972
01:30:02,653 --> 01:30:03,654
[sniffles]

973
01:30:07,491 --> 01:30:08,492
[sniffles]

974
01:30:10,035 --> 01:30:14,414
"Our marriage has become an obstacle for
the prosperity of France." [chuckles]

975
01:30:16,542 --> 01:30:21,046
"She has been deprived
of one day being governed

976
01:30:21,129 --> 01:30:24,967
by the descendants of the man
brought to us by providence

977
01:30:25,050 --> 01:30:27,511
to mend the evils of
a terrible revolution

978
01:30:28,136 --> 01:30:31,515
and restore faith, the
throne and the social order."

979
01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:38,856
Sorry.

980
01:30:38,939 --> 01:30:40,065
[stammers, coughs]

981
01:30:40,732 --> 01:30:43,318
- Emperor. Wait.
- Go. No, listen, listen. All right?

982
01:30:43,402 --> 01:30:46,029
This is for your country.
That's what this is, all right?

983
01:30:46,113 --> 01:30:47,739
- [whimpers]
- Now say it.

984
01:30:49,199 --> 01:30:50,409
Say it.

985
01:30:57,124 --> 01:31:00,169
"Our marriage has become an obstacle
for the prosperity of France.

986
01:31:02,171 --> 01:31:04,715
Agreeing to the dissolution
of our marriage,

987
01:31:05,340 --> 01:31:07,801
as I must, does not
change my feelings.

988
01:31:14,016 --> 01:31:20,016
The emperor will have in me
a-always his... his truest friend."

989
01:31:33,327 --> 01:31:34,953
[Napoleon breathes shakily]

990
01:31:39,416 --> 01:31:41,251
[sniffling]

991
01:31:54,473 --> 01:31:55,557
[Joséphine] Emperor,

992
01:31:56,391 --> 01:31:59,561
you have just pronounced the
word which separates us forever.

993
01:32:01,396 --> 01:32:03,982
Your mistaken
ambition has ever been

994
01:32:04,650 --> 01:32:08,862
and will continue to be the
guide of all your actions.

995
01:32:09,738 --> 01:32:10,948
Nevertheless,

996
01:32:11,740 --> 01:32:15,202
you can never doubt the sincerity
of my wishes for your happiness.

997
01:32:16,453 --> 01:32:20,040
May it at least afford me some
consolation for my sufferings.

998
01:32:21,166 --> 01:32:23,710
- Yours, Joséphine.
- Thank you.

999
01:32:24,378 --> 01:32:26,713
- Good morning, madame.
- Thank you. What's your name?

1000
01:32:26,797 --> 01:32:28,966
- Fleur.
- Fleur. Pleasure.

1001
01:33:20,559 --> 01:33:22,561
[chuckling]

1002
01:33:31,528 --> 01:33:32,529
I miss you.

1003
01:33:37,993 --> 01:33:39,995
Marital life is
very agreeable now.

1004
01:33:44,791 --> 01:33:47,377
You've shown such
great courage so far.

1005
01:33:47,461 --> 01:33:49,630
[sighs]

1006
01:33:49,713 --> 01:33:51,215
You must maintain it.

1007
01:33:52,633 --> 01:33:55,552
Do not permit yourself
to fall into melancholy.

1008
01:34:01,099 --> 01:34:02,809
You look best when you're happy.

1009
01:34:07,648 --> 01:34:09,233
Please take care of your health.

1010
01:34:10,234 --> 01:34:11,610
It is precious to me.

1011
01:34:12,945 --> 01:34:14,279
Will you write me tomorrow?

1012
01:34:15,072 --> 01:34:16,198
Mm-hmm.

1013
01:34:18,659 --> 01:34:19,785
And the next day?

1014
01:34:20,494 --> 01:34:21,495
Yes.

1015
01:34:22,579 --> 01:34:23,705
And the day after that?

1016
01:34:25,040 --> 01:34:26,041
Mm-hmm.

1017
01:34:27,543 --> 01:34:29,378
- And the day after that?
- Yeah.

1018
01:34:32,798 --> 01:34:33,799
Good.

1019
01:34:39,221 --> 01:34:40,222
[kisses]

1020
01:34:41,306 --> 01:34:42,349
[door closes]

1021
01:34:44,059 --> 01:34:47,896
Once, an English ambassador
challenged my reasons for war.

1022
01:34:48,564 --> 01:34:52,025
He said, "You French,
you fight only for money,

1023
01:34:52,109 --> 01:34:54,278
while we English,
we fight for honor."

1024
01:34:55,445 --> 01:34:59,116
I replied, "Everyone
fights for what they lack."

1025
01:34:59,867 --> 01:35:02,411
[chuckles, stammers]

1026
01:35:02,494 --> 01:35:05,497
This is not... This is not your story.
This never happened to you, did it?

1027
01:35:05,581 --> 01:35:06,581
Of course it did.

1028
01:35:06,623 --> 01:35:08,059
- Of course it did.
- What do you mean?

1029
01:35:08,083 --> 01:35:10,169
We had the same saying with
my people and the Turks.

1030
01:35:10,252 --> 01:35:11,461
- [chuckles]
- Do you?

1031
01:35:11,545 --> 01:35:13,630
The English lack honor.
We can agree on that.

1032
01:35:13,714 --> 01:35:16,466
- [Alexander] Listen, there is... [sighs]
- [mosquito buzzes]

1033
01:35:17,301 --> 01:35:22,222
There's nothing I think we can agree
more with than our hatred for Britain.

1034
01:35:25,559 --> 01:35:30,063
I just have to say
that it actually...

1035
01:35:30,147 --> 01:35:33,650
It would be my absolute pleasure and
honor if I could call you my brother.

1036
01:35:37,446 --> 01:35:39,448
There is a way for you
to call me brother.

1037
01:35:41,992 --> 01:35:47,039
Last night, at
dinner, I was… [sighs]

1038
01:35:47,122 --> 01:35:49,458
…charmed by your sister.

1039
01:35:49,541 --> 01:35:50,918
[chuckles]

1040
01:35:51,001 --> 01:35:52,002
Is she spoken for?

1041
01:35:52,085 --> 01:35:53,921
Ah. Sadly, yes.

1042
01:35:54,004 --> 01:35:57,716
She's to be married to the
Duke of Oldenburg, I'm afraid.

1043
01:35:58,425 --> 01:36:01,386
Uh, and what of her
younger sister? Anna?

1044
01:36:01,470 --> 01:36:03,805
[stammers] Is there a
formal offer for Anna?

1045
01:36:03,889 --> 01:36:06,099
- [mosquito buzzes]
- [blows]

1046
01:36:07,851 --> 01:36:08,852
[chuckles]

1047
01:36:10,854 --> 01:36:14,399
Uh, well, you see, An-Anna,
she's 15 years old.

1048
01:36:15,609 --> 01:36:16,777
That is a detail.

1049
01:36:16,860 --> 01:36:18,695
[mosquitoes buzzing]

1050
01:36:20,197 --> 01:36:24,785
Our friendship is built on our
mutual distrust of England.

1051
01:36:25,494 --> 01:36:29,873
When we hold to the Continental
Blockade, we choke them from the trade,

1052
01:36:29,957 --> 01:36:32,251
and we fight for our
most sacred rights.

1053
01:36:32,334 --> 01:36:34,503
That is what is
important between us.

1054
01:36:35,170 --> 01:36:36,171
I just had a thought.

1055
01:36:36,839 --> 01:36:38,131
- No.
- No, say it.

1056
01:36:38,215 --> 01:36:39,842
- Should I tell you?
- Please.

1057
01:36:41,093 --> 01:36:43,846
Imagine an army. 50,000 men.

1058
01:36:44,346 --> 01:36:47,599
Russians, Frenchmen,
perhaps even Austrians,

1059
01:36:47,683 --> 01:36:50,394
marching by way of
Constantinople into Asia

1060
01:36:50,477 --> 01:36:52,145
would have only to
reach the Euphrates

1061
01:36:52,229 --> 01:36:54,565
to make England tremble and
bring her down on her knees

1062
01:36:54,648 --> 01:36:56,400
- before the continent.
- [chuckles]

1063
01:36:59,695 --> 01:37:00,863
It is incredible.

1064
01:37:02,072 --> 01:37:03,073
Toast.

1065
01:37:07,619 --> 01:37:08,704
[sighs]

1066
01:37:09,913 --> 01:37:11,415
- To you.
- To us.

1067
01:37:12,624 --> 01:37:17,546
His Majesty, the Emperor Napoleon,
wishes to make a formal offer to Austria

1068
01:37:17,629 --> 01:37:19,840
and to His Majesty,
King Francis,

1069
01:37:21,049 --> 01:37:24,344
for the hand of the
archduchess, Marie-Louise.

1070
01:37:26,013 --> 01:37:27,139
His eldest daughter.

1071
01:37:28,473 --> 01:37:29,683
No.

1072
01:37:30,726 --> 01:37:33,520
Uh, this union would bring
together Austria and France

1073
01:37:33,604 --> 01:37:35,731
in an unbreakable
matrimonial bond.

1074
01:37:37,524 --> 01:37:39,526
[in German] Is this a joke?

1075
01:37:41,904 --> 01:37:47,904
[in German] I may find it
humorous… but His Majesty does not.

1076
01:38:06,553 --> 01:38:08,281
[in English] Did you
have a pleasant journey?

1077
01:38:08,305 --> 01:38:09,848
It was wonderful. Thank you.

1078
01:38:16,021 --> 01:38:17,439
You're quite petite.

1079
01:38:18,482 --> 01:38:19,691
I'm not accustomed to that.

1080
01:38:21,026 --> 01:38:22,444
[Marie-Louise chuckles]

1081
01:38:23,570 --> 01:38:24,863
How do I look to you?

1082
01:38:26,490 --> 01:38:28,242
Do I resemble my portrait?

1083
01:38:28,825 --> 01:38:33,163
Oh, yes. And even more
handsome and strong.

1084
01:38:34,456 --> 01:38:37,960
And you are even more
handsome, more be-beautiful.

1085
01:38:38,710 --> 01:38:42,005
[chuckles] I hope you're
pleased with your choice.

1086
01:38:43,674 --> 01:38:46,844
I hope so too. Would you
like to see the bedroom?

1087
01:38:46,927 --> 01:38:49,221
[chuckles] Yes, thank you.

1088
01:39:01,692 --> 01:39:03,819
Your Majesty, your son.

1089
01:39:15,789 --> 01:39:17,791
[breathing shakily]

1090
01:39:20,752 --> 01:39:22,004
[doors close]

1091
01:39:22,087 --> 01:39:23,213
[soldier shouts, distant]

1092
01:39:23,297 --> 01:39:24,631
- Hello.
- [baby fusses]

1093
01:39:24,715 --> 01:39:26,717
[soldiers shouting, distant]

1094
01:39:28,635 --> 01:39:30,179
- [soldier] Fire!
- [distant gunfire]

1095
01:39:30,262 --> 01:39:33,182
- [baby crying]
- Oh. [shushing]

1096
01:39:33,265 --> 01:39:34,975
[crying stops]

1097
01:39:35,058 --> 01:39:38,103
[shouting continues, distant]

1098
01:39:38,187 --> 01:39:39,396
My little king.

1099
01:39:44,401 --> 01:39:46,904
[carriage driver]
Hyah, hyah, hyah!

1100
01:39:46,987 --> 01:39:48,989
[horse hooves approaching]

1101
01:39:52,743 --> 01:39:53,869
[carriage driver] Hold.

1102
01:40:02,461 --> 01:40:04,880
[baby fusses]

1103
01:40:20,479 --> 01:40:21,897
[baby coos]

1104
01:40:32,199 --> 01:40:33,367
[baby grunts]

1105
01:40:42,167 --> 01:40:43,585
[coos]

1106
01:40:48,715 --> 01:40:50,717
[cooing]

1107
01:40:52,219 --> 01:40:53,971
Oh, sweet child.

1108
01:40:55,848 --> 01:40:57,266
[baby grunts]

1109
01:41:04,523 --> 01:41:10,195
One day, you will understand
what I have sacrificed for you.

1110
01:41:10,988 --> 01:41:13,949
[baby cooing]

1111
01:41:15,742 --> 01:41:17,744
[sighs]

1112
01:41:20,205 --> 01:41:23,083
[Napoleon] My dear
Joséphine, I'm sad today.

1113
01:41:23,625 --> 01:41:27,462
Tsar Alexander has turned against
me and forced me to invade Russia.

1114
01:41:28,422 --> 01:41:33,260
He's decided to open his ports to
England while taxing the French.

1115
01:41:34,595 --> 01:41:38,390
I must wipe away my melancholy
and begin the march to Moscow.

1116
01:41:39,433 --> 01:41:42,311
I've convinced the heads of
Europe of this resolution,

1117
01:41:42,394 --> 01:41:46,899
and so I command the combined
forces of France, Austria, Italy,

1118
01:41:46,982 --> 01:41:48,692
Germany and Poland.

1119
01:41:49,276 --> 01:41:51,945
I see nothing but
success in my future.

1120
01:41:52,029 --> 01:41:54,907
[French soldier 1] Keep
your lines. Steady.

1121
01:41:57,242 --> 01:41:58,911
[French soldier 2] To the front.

1122
01:41:58,994 --> 01:42:00,913
[French soldier
3] Keep your step.

1123
01:42:02,998 --> 01:42:05,292
[speaking Russian]

1124
01:42:06,752 --> 01:42:08,480
- [shouting, grunting]
- [French soldier 1] Take cover!

1125
01:42:08,504 --> 01:42:09,624
[French soldier 2] Get down!

1126
01:42:15,802 --> 01:42:17,596
[French general]
Get down! Get down!

1127
01:42:17,679 --> 01:42:20,265
[Russian soldiers
speaking Russian]

1128
01:42:27,439 --> 01:42:30,776
[French general]
Hyah, hyah! Hyah!

1129
01:42:30,859 --> 01:42:32,903
After them! After them!

1130
01:42:36,532 --> 01:42:37,866
[grunts]

1131
01:42:44,248 --> 01:42:45,415
[Russian soldier grunts]

1132
01:42:47,209 --> 01:42:49,878
[grunting]

1133
01:42:51,255 --> 01:42:52,506
Whoa, whoa.

1134
01:42:55,300 --> 01:42:57,219
- [horse nickering]
- Whoa.

1135
01:43:06,687 --> 01:43:08,313
[horse whinnies]

1136
01:43:14,111 --> 01:43:17,781
- Get back! Drop back. Retreat.
- [grunts] Fall back!

1137
01:43:17,865 --> 01:43:19,867
[soldiers shouting]

1138
01:44:25,182 --> 01:44:27,100
[Napoleon] My dear Joséphine.

1139
01:44:28,685 --> 01:44:31,939
I'm writing to you because I have
just won a great battle today.

1140
01:44:33,565 --> 01:44:35,859
Tomorrow we will
resume our advance.

1141
01:44:36,568 --> 01:44:38,946
Moscow is now only
200 miles away.

1142
01:44:39,029 --> 01:44:42,491
And I think of you all
the while. All yours.

1143
01:44:43,200 --> 01:44:45,035
[French soldier 1] Nearly
there. Nearly there.

1144
01:44:52,459 --> 01:44:54,878
- [French soldier 2] Thank you, sir.
- [speaks indistinctly]

1145
01:44:55,671 --> 01:44:57,130
[soldier coughing]

1146
01:45:00,551 --> 01:45:03,470
- Thank you, Admiral.
- You were the brave of Austerlitz.

1147
01:45:31,790 --> 01:45:33,792
[dogs barking]

1148
01:46:06,200 --> 01:46:08,410
[dogs barking]

1149
01:46:08,493 --> 01:46:10,037
[Napoleon shouting]
Where are you?

1150
01:46:23,133 --> 01:46:25,427
300,000 souls
lived in this city.

1151
01:46:27,304 --> 01:46:28,680
And they've all just left?

1152
01:46:47,866 --> 01:46:50,786
Little boy.

1153
01:46:50,869 --> 01:46:54,248
Pspspsps.

1154
01:46:55,999 --> 01:46:57,543
Where are you?

1155
01:47:02,005 --> 01:47:03,632
Don't be frightened.

1156
01:47:04,466 --> 01:47:06,677
I'm just gonna give
you a little spanking.

1157
01:47:37,541 --> 01:47:39,042
It's not very sporting, is it?

1158
01:47:40,919 --> 01:47:42,796
For his honor and
Russia's, not mine.

1159
01:47:48,218 --> 01:47:50,179
There's dignity to
be had in defeat.

1160
01:47:52,639 --> 01:47:54,641
[snoring]

1161
01:47:54,725 --> 01:47:56,268
[fire crackling]

1162
01:47:56,351 --> 01:47:58,812
[gasps, breathing heavily]

1163
01:48:33,847 --> 01:48:34,848
Who did this?

1164
01:48:36,266 --> 01:48:37,267
They did.

1165
01:48:38,769 --> 01:48:41,980
No, they did not. Be sensible.

1166
01:48:44,900 --> 01:48:48,028
- Who set these fires?
- [sighs]

1167
01:48:48,111 --> 01:48:51,532
Your Majesty, they did.

1168
01:48:55,369 --> 01:48:56,537
[sighs]

1169
01:48:57,162 --> 01:49:00,123
He'd rather burn his own
city than negotiate with me.

1170
01:49:00,916 --> 01:49:02,960
I didn't think he
had the courage.

1171
01:49:08,423 --> 01:49:13,971
Well, we'll go to Saint Petersburg
and have him burn that too.

1172
01:49:15,848 --> 01:49:19,393
We have let too
much time slip away.

1173
01:49:21,103 --> 01:49:24,481
We would be marching
into the Russian winter

1174
01:49:25,440 --> 01:49:29,486
with horses that are not
raised for this weather.

1175
01:49:31,029 --> 01:49:34,283
If we go back to Poland, we
can wait out the winter months.

1176
01:49:36,869 --> 01:49:37,869
Hmm?

1177
01:49:37,911 --> 01:49:39,121
[shouts]

1178
01:49:49,798 --> 01:49:53,302
[Joséphine] Napoleon, your letters
are a soothing balm to my heart.

1179
01:49:54,219 --> 01:49:55,512
I fear for you.

1180
01:49:56,263 --> 01:49:58,432
Remember that I alone
know your health…

1181
01:49:58,515 --> 01:49:59,975
- [spits]
- …your fears.

1182
01:50:00,767 --> 01:50:04,313
I thank you as tenderly
as I will always love you.

1183
01:50:04,855 --> 01:50:05,898
Joséphine.

1184
01:50:07,566 --> 01:50:09,151
[Napoleon] My friend, Joséphine.

1185
01:50:10,319 --> 01:50:11,486
"Friend."

1186
01:50:12,571 --> 01:50:14,740
It is strange to write
that word to you.

1187
01:50:15,991 --> 01:50:17,993
You have always
been so much more.

1188
01:50:18,076 --> 01:50:20,078
[soldiers coughing]

1189
01:50:20,162 --> 01:50:22,581
[fife playing]

1190
01:50:26,084 --> 01:50:30,881
[Napoleon] Despite careful organization,
there have been breakdowns in supply.

1191
01:50:32,466 --> 01:50:37,262
We're suffering sickness,
desertion and famine.

1192
01:50:39,306 --> 01:50:40,432
We are winning.

1193
01:50:40,516 --> 01:50:42,518
[soldiers coughing]

1194
01:50:52,653 --> 01:50:55,989
- [Napoleon] Us or Cossacks?
- [French general] Us.

1195
01:50:59,201 --> 01:51:03,830
[Napoleon sighs] Joséphine.
Fortune has abandoned me.

1196
01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:07,709
I know that it is
what fate has for me.

1197
01:51:08,418 --> 01:51:10,587
Your words rattle in my head.

1198
01:51:12,256 --> 01:51:14,258
I am nothing without you.

1199
01:51:18,595 --> 01:51:22,266
[politician] Of the 600,000
men you sent to Russia,

1200
01:51:22,349 --> 01:51:25,227
only 40,000 have returned.

1201
01:51:25,310 --> 01:51:30,941
Therefore, you have been
exiled in no uncertain terms.

1202
01:51:32,734 --> 01:51:37,698
The allied coalition of Austria,
Prussia, Russia and England,

1203
01:51:39,491 --> 01:51:41,785
and with the agreement
of the French Council,

1204
01:51:42,995 --> 01:51:46,748
grant you sovereignty
of the island of Elba.

1205
01:51:48,500 --> 01:51:51,587
A revenue of two million
francs from the French funds,

1206
01:51:52,588 --> 01:51:56,008
pensions for the Bonaparte family
and the Empress Marie-Louise.

1207
01:51:57,176 --> 01:52:02,389
It also provides for Empress Joséphine
to retain all of her properties

1208
01:52:03,891 --> 01:52:07,728
and an allotted annual
income of one million francs.

1209
01:52:09,730 --> 01:52:11,398
[sighs]

1210
01:52:36,840 --> 01:52:38,425
I love France too much.

1211
01:52:43,680 --> 01:52:45,933
All I've desired was its glory.

1212
01:52:48,727 --> 01:52:50,687
I would never bring
her misfortune.

1213
01:52:53,190 --> 01:52:56,401
They want me to
abdicate. [sighs]

1214
01:52:56,485 --> 01:52:58,028
Fine, I'll abdicate.

1215
01:53:13,293 --> 01:53:15,295
[townsfolk chattering
in Italian]

1216
01:54:04,845 --> 01:54:05,846
Your Highness.

1217
01:54:07,598 --> 01:54:08,599
Empress.

1218
01:54:23,655 --> 01:54:24,656
[Joséphine] Here.

1219
01:54:29,536 --> 01:54:32,164
[Alexander] Joséphine,
Joséphine. Hmm?

1220
01:54:32,915 --> 01:54:34,416
[chuckles] I am charmed.

1221
01:54:36,502 --> 01:54:39,713
But… [sighs]

1222
01:54:42,049 --> 01:54:46,303
…you do not have to lock yourself
away just because he's not here.

1223
01:54:48,055 --> 01:54:50,432
I know what it is like
to be underestimated.

1224
01:54:52,059 --> 01:54:58,059
But your eyes, your
charm and your spirit,

1225
01:54:59,274 --> 01:55:00,484
it is in there.

1226
01:55:01,318 --> 01:55:04,863
It is yours, and you can use it.

1227
01:55:09,076 --> 01:55:11,620
[classical music playing]

1228
01:55:48,907 --> 01:55:50,242
[Napoleon] Dear Joséphine,

1229
01:55:50,993 --> 01:55:54,079
You are mine. You
will always be.

1230
01:55:55,622 --> 01:55:58,166
- I cannot stand it any longer.
- [crew member shouting]

1231
01:55:58,250 --> 01:56:00,502
It has been 300
days on this rock,

1232
01:56:01,170 --> 01:56:04,548
and I'm ready to come home
and reclaim what's mine:

1233
01:56:05,174 --> 01:56:06,967
you and France.

1234
01:56:18,979 --> 01:56:21,815
[crew members shouting]

1235
01:56:25,152 --> 01:56:26,904
[Napoleon] I'm taking your ship.

1236
01:56:26,987 --> 01:56:29,865
If you do not provoke me,
you do not have to fear me.

1237
01:56:48,926 --> 01:56:50,135
[Joséphine] Napoleon,

1238
01:56:51,094 --> 01:56:55,307
I'm a flower that opens its
petals and smiles to the sunshine,

1239
01:56:56,433 --> 01:56:59,937
unconscious that the storm
is near which will lay me low

1240
01:57:00,020 --> 01:57:03,106
- and scatter leaves to the heavens.
- [groans]

1241
01:57:03,190 --> 01:57:05,192
Come quickly, my friend.

1242
01:57:17,788 --> 01:57:19,248
[kisses]

1243
01:57:33,762 --> 01:57:37,182
- [wheezing]
- If you would open your mouth, please.

1244
01:57:37,975 --> 01:57:40,018
[groaning]

1245
01:57:42,437 --> 01:57:43,438
Thank you.

1246
01:57:48,360 --> 01:57:49,570
Thank you.

1247
01:57:50,362 --> 01:57:53,699
Well, your chest is congested.
Your throat is aflame.

1248
01:57:54,867 --> 01:57:56,702
My suggestion is to stay in bed.

1249
01:57:57,536 --> 01:58:00,497
[wheezing] But
Napoleon is coming.

1250
01:58:01,039 --> 01:58:03,792
It would be unwise to
receive any visitors.

1251
01:58:03,876 --> 01:58:05,502
But Napoleon is coming.

1252
01:58:05,586 --> 01:58:06,670
I understand.

1253
01:58:19,725 --> 01:58:21,727
[wheezing]

1254
01:58:26,231 --> 01:58:28,192
[Dr. Corvisart] Just
keep her comfortable.

1255
01:58:48,003 --> 01:58:49,046
Whoa, whoa!

1256
01:58:56,094 --> 01:58:57,179
Your Majesty.

1257
01:59:02,017 --> 01:59:03,310
You may speak.

1258
01:59:03,393 --> 01:59:06,563
Bonaparte, Your Majesty.
He has returned.

1259
01:59:06,647 --> 01:59:08,690
A ship landed on a beach
in Antibes this morning,

1260
01:59:08,774 --> 01:59:09,650
and they're on the march.

1261
01:59:09,733 --> 01:59:12,778
Napoleon Bonaparte is
marching towards Paris.

1262
01:59:12,861 --> 01:59:16,073
[breathing heavily]

1263
01:59:16,156 --> 01:59:17,449
More.

1264
01:59:17,533 --> 01:59:18,534
Your Majesty.

1265
01:59:51,942 --> 01:59:52,942
Afternoon, Colonel.

1266
01:59:53,861 --> 01:59:55,070
[colonel] Your Majesty.

1267
01:59:55,654 --> 01:59:56,738
General Marchand,

1268
01:59:56,822 --> 01:59:59,408
in defense of the royal
government of King Louis XVIII,

1269
02:00:00,200 --> 02:00:03,245
requests that you surrender your
weapons and cease your march

1270
02:00:03,954 --> 02:00:06,623
so that you may be arrested
and returned to your island.

1271
02:00:07,666 --> 02:00:11,545
Will you please inform the general that
I shall like to come and speak with him?

1272
02:00:13,255 --> 02:00:15,257
I have no fight with
my own Fifth Army.

1273
02:00:17,050 --> 02:00:18,051
Sir.

1274
02:00:27,102 --> 02:00:28,562
He wishes to speak.

1275
02:00:30,063 --> 02:00:31,064
Make ready!

1276
02:00:34,818 --> 02:00:36,028
Present.

1277
02:00:47,039 --> 02:00:52,002
Soldiers of the Fifth
Regiment, do you recognize me?

1278
02:00:55,797 --> 02:00:57,925
Do you recognize me, soldiers?

1279
02:00:59,843 --> 02:01:01,428
[French soldier] Yes, Emperor!

1280
02:01:01,512 --> 02:01:04,556
[laughing]

1281
02:01:07,643 --> 02:01:08,852
[Napoleon] I miss you.

1282
02:01:11,605 --> 02:01:13,607
I'm melancholy for my home…

1283
02:01:15,901 --> 02:01:18,070
and for our victories together.

1284
02:01:21,281 --> 02:01:22,783
I want to come home.

1285
02:01:24,243 --> 02:01:25,536
Will you join me?

1286
02:01:27,287 --> 02:01:29,039
Long live the emperor!

1287
02:01:29,122 --> 02:01:32,334
- Long live the emperor!
- Long live the emperor!

1288
02:01:32,417 --> 02:01:36,547
- Long live the emperor!
- Long live the emperor!

1289
02:01:36,630 --> 02:01:39,049
- [pledging continues]
- [cheering]

1290
02:01:48,851 --> 02:01:50,853
[crying]

1291
02:02:16,545 --> 02:02:21,466
On May 26th,
Dr. Corvisart was called

1292
02:02:22,759 --> 02:02:27,931
and found her chest congested
and her throat inflamed.

1293
02:02:30,309 --> 02:02:32,811
Her illness was diphtheria.

1294
02:02:35,898 --> 02:02:41,778
On May 29th, last sacrament
was given, and she died.

1295
02:02:46,408 --> 02:02:48,285
And no one thought to notify me?

1296
02:02:54,082 --> 02:02:55,292
[sighs]

1297
02:02:58,587 --> 02:02:59,588
Hortense.

1298
02:03:02,508 --> 02:03:05,260
Do you blame...
[breathes shakily]

1299
02:03:05,344 --> 02:03:06,553
Do you blame me?

1300
02:03:08,847 --> 02:03:10,390
- [sniffles]
- I don't blame you.

1301
02:03:10,474 --> 02:03:11,475
Of course not.

1302
02:03:14,353 --> 02:03:19,233
I'm not to bear the burden of
responsibility… [breathes shakily]

1303
02:03:19,316 --> 02:03:21,235
…for the misfortunes
of your mother.

1304
02:03:22,361 --> 02:03:24,446
I want the letters that I
wrote to her. [sniffles]

1305
02:03:24,530 --> 02:03:28,575
I'm sorry, I don't have them.
They were stolen by her valet.

1306
02:03:30,118 --> 02:03:31,286
[blows]

1307
02:03:31,370 --> 02:03:32,579
Where did she keep them?

1308
02:03:34,957 --> 02:03:37,459
In the cupboard in her
bedroom, next to her bed.

1309
02:03:41,088 --> 02:03:42,506
What did he do with them?

1310
02:03:44,925 --> 02:03:46,510
Her valet sold them.

1311
02:03:52,933 --> 02:03:54,893
- [cries]
- [Hortense] I'm sorry.

1312
02:03:57,855 --> 02:03:58,856
I forgive you.

1313
02:04:03,652 --> 02:04:06,780
[congress member] Napoleon
Bonaparte has destroyed

1314
02:04:06,864 --> 02:04:10,742
the only title upon which
his very existence depended.

1315
02:04:12,160 --> 02:04:15,497
This congregation
of allies shall form

1316
02:04:15,581 --> 02:04:19,042
along the borders of
France and Belgium an army.

1317
02:04:19,126 --> 02:04:21,795
70,000 troops from England,

1318
02:04:23,130 --> 02:04:25,716
120,000 troops from Prussia.

1319
02:04:27,801 --> 02:04:31,763
This vermin has routed
the farmyards of Europe

1320
02:04:32,639 --> 02:04:34,808
while the farmers snored.

1321
02:04:35,392 --> 02:04:37,603
We should have struck
this blow long ago.

1322
02:04:38,687 --> 02:04:43,025
He has held the world
hostage with his egotism,

1323
02:04:43,108 --> 02:04:46,320
his insatiable hunger for power,

1324
02:04:46,403 --> 02:04:49,823
and his lack of
simple good manners.

1325
02:04:50,782 --> 02:04:53,243
We will all sleep
again without him.

1326
02:04:54,411 --> 02:04:59,541
I believe I speak for all of us when I
say that the only regret we all share

1327
02:05:00,250 --> 02:05:03,670
is that we allowed this
vermin to live at all.

1328
02:05:04,838 --> 02:05:08,467
250,000 men with the traitor.

1329
02:05:09,676 --> 02:05:15,641
25,000 men, 125,000 men

1330
02:05:15,724 --> 02:05:18,393
and 100,000 men…

1331
02:05:21,897 --> 02:05:25,234
against our 125,000 men.

1332
02:05:27,694 --> 02:05:29,279
This is a fight on land.

1333
02:05:30,948 --> 02:05:33,951
This is what Britain does not
know how to do that I know.

1334
02:05:36,245 --> 02:05:40,332
Strike quickly against
Wellington and Blücher.

1335
02:05:41,124 --> 02:05:42,709
Defeat them separately.

1336
02:05:43,752 --> 02:05:47,172
Disallow them from
uniting forces here.

1337
02:06:00,227 --> 02:06:01,436
Morning.

1338
02:06:01,520 --> 02:06:03,522
- Morning.
- [grunts]

1339
02:06:03,605 --> 02:06:05,065
The Prussians are advancing.

1340
02:06:06,149 --> 02:06:07,651
We should begin the offensive.

1341
02:06:08,360 --> 02:06:10,445
[Napoleon] We must wait
for the ground to dry.

1342
02:06:12,948 --> 02:06:16,243
Blücher will never make it in time.
I'll have Wellington by lunch.

1343
02:06:23,667 --> 02:06:26,837
[thunder rumbling]

1344
02:06:28,797 --> 02:06:30,215
[sighs, grunts]

1345
02:06:32,176 --> 02:06:33,594
[clears throat]

1346
02:06:39,057 --> 02:06:42,269
I never get wet if I can
help it. [clears throat]

1347
02:07:28,357 --> 02:07:31,276
[thunder rumbling]

1348
02:07:47,960 --> 02:07:49,336
What shall I tell the men?

1349
02:07:51,380 --> 02:07:53,090
Tell them to make the rain stop.

1350
02:07:56,093 --> 02:08:00,430
- [British soldier 1] Coming through!
- [British soldier 2] In formation!

1351
02:08:01,890 --> 02:08:04,560
[Wellesley] Now's your
time, lads. Now's your time.

1352
02:08:05,894 --> 02:08:07,521
Now, listen very carefully.

1353
02:08:08,981 --> 02:08:13,902
Patience is the order of the day
today. Patience shall win the day.

1354
02:08:14,653 --> 02:08:16,905
We must hold this ground.

1355
02:08:17,614 --> 02:08:19,408
Let them come to us.

1356
02:08:19,491 --> 02:08:21,326
[soldiers] Huzzah!

1357
02:08:26,665 --> 02:08:27,916
Go on, boys. Go on.

1358
02:08:30,085 --> 02:08:31,086
Whoa.

1359
02:08:31,879 --> 02:08:33,088
Good morning, General Blücher.

1360
02:08:33,172 --> 02:08:35,799
- Good morning.
- Estimated time of arrival, sir?

1361
02:08:35,883 --> 02:08:38,218
- Officer?
- About five hours.

1362
02:08:38,302 --> 02:08:39,887
About five hours.

1363
02:08:56,445 --> 02:08:57,821
Come on, boys. Come on, boys.

1364
02:08:59,072 --> 02:09:00,073
[grunts]

1365
02:09:02,826 --> 02:09:04,828
[soldier shouting, distant]

1366
02:09:10,375 --> 02:09:11,668
Oh, there he is.

1367
02:09:12,586 --> 02:09:18,258
He appears to be…
[chuckles] …just sleeping.

1368
02:09:19,718 --> 02:09:25,140
One thing you cannot resist,
my friend, is a frontal attack.

1369
02:09:28,060 --> 02:09:31,063
Let's see how this general
can attack our position.

1370
02:09:34,066 --> 02:09:38,904
Sir. I have the emperor in my
sights. Do I have permission to fire?

1371
02:09:38,987 --> 02:09:40,113
Certainly not.

1372
02:09:40,614 --> 02:09:42,967
Generals commanding armies have
better things to do with their time

1373
02:09:42,991 --> 02:09:44,093
than to shoot at one another.

1374
02:09:44,117 --> 02:09:46,578
Hold your fire, rifleman,
on pain of death.

1375
02:09:46,662 --> 02:09:48,455
Go on, boys. Come, come.

1376
02:09:48,539 --> 02:09:50,332
[British soldier] A
runner coming through!

1377
02:09:51,834 --> 02:09:53,502
Blücher, 11 to 12 miles, sir.

1378
02:09:54,336 --> 02:09:56,171
[British general 1]
Attention, follow me.

1379
02:09:56,672 --> 02:09:59,216
- Blücher at 11 to 12 miles, sir.
- Jesus Christ.

1380
02:09:59,299 --> 02:10:01,385
- I want a report every hour.
- Yes, sir.

1381
02:10:04,179 --> 02:10:07,850
[French soldier] Runner
coming through. Make way.

1382
02:10:07,933 --> 02:10:10,853
Oh. Oh.

1383
02:10:12,437 --> 02:10:15,357
[panting] Prussians on
the roadside, 12 miles.

1384
02:10:21,613 --> 02:10:25,492
Prussian troops have been sighted
on the road, sire. Twelve miles.

1385
02:10:29,121 --> 02:10:30,330
Ready the cannons.

1386
02:10:33,959 --> 02:10:35,627
Ready the cannons!

1387
02:10:35,711 --> 02:10:38,714
[French soldiers clamoring]

1388
02:10:38,797 --> 02:10:40,841
[French general] Go on! Move!

1389
02:10:46,221 --> 02:10:49,516
[French soldiers shouting]

1390
02:10:50,267 --> 02:10:52,853
[French soldier 1]
Ready! Cannons are ready!

1391
02:10:52,936 --> 02:10:54,813
[French soldier 2]
Cannons are ready!

1392
02:10:54,897 --> 02:10:56,607
[French general] The
rain has stopped, sir.

1393
02:11:05,532 --> 02:11:07,242
Prepare to fire!

1394
02:11:10,662 --> 02:11:12,247
[breathes heavily]

1395
02:11:16,877 --> 02:11:19,463
- Fire!
- [French soldiers] Fire!

1396
02:11:25,469 --> 02:11:27,012
[British general 2] Take cover!

1397
02:11:29,806 --> 02:11:32,142
Straight into position. Steady.

1398
02:11:32,226 --> 02:11:36,313
Prepare for the
advance. Get ready.

1399
02:11:37,648 --> 02:11:39,107
Prepare for the advance.

1400
02:11:39,191 --> 02:11:41,276
Readjust to 195!

1401
02:11:41,360 --> 02:11:43,403
Adjust 195!

1402
02:11:43,487 --> 02:11:46,156
[French soldier] Elevation 195.

1403
02:11:49,201 --> 02:11:50,327
Adjusted!

1404
02:11:52,287 --> 02:11:55,165
Prepare to fire! Fire!

1405
02:11:55,249 --> 02:11:56,792
[French soldiers] Fire!

1406
02:11:59,169 --> 02:12:01,797
[British soldiers
shouting, screaming]

1407
02:12:01,880 --> 02:12:05,008
[British general 2] Keep your
head down. Seventh, take over.

1408
02:12:11,598 --> 02:12:13,809
[screaming]

1409
02:12:13,892 --> 02:12:16,770
- [British soldier] Out the way!
- [British general 3] Hold fast, men!

1410
02:12:20,816 --> 02:12:24,319
Infantry, advance!

1411
02:12:24,403 --> 02:12:26,780
- [march playing]
- [French general 1] Left company!

1412
02:12:26,864 --> 02:12:30,701
[speaks indistinctly] And march!

1413
02:12:30,784 --> 02:12:32,870
[French general 2]
Get in formation. Now!

1414
02:12:34,872 --> 02:12:35,998
Keep to the line!

1415
02:12:37,249 --> 02:12:38,250
Join!

1416
02:12:40,377 --> 02:12:42,171
[drums playing]

1417
02:12:47,634 --> 02:12:51,722
[French general] Second wave,
advance! Over the top, men!

1418
02:12:52,723 --> 02:12:54,141
Hold the line!

1419
02:12:54,224 --> 02:12:56,185
Cannons!

1420
02:12:56,894 --> 02:12:58,687
- Fire!
- [French soldiers shouting]

1421
02:13:02,107 --> 02:13:03,650
[British general 1] Get ready.

1422
02:13:04,735 --> 02:13:05,986
[British general 3] Hold fast.

1423
02:13:06,778 --> 02:13:08,197
[British general 2] Fire!

1424
02:13:17,539 --> 02:13:19,666
[British general 3] You
there, get on that cannon.

1425
02:13:21,710 --> 02:13:23,587
[French soldiers clamoring]

1426
02:13:29,801 --> 02:13:30,844
[British soldier] Fire!

1427
02:13:33,597 --> 02:13:34,973
[screaming]

1428
02:13:37,726 --> 02:13:39,520
[French general 2] Fill the gap!

1429
02:13:41,355 --> 02:13:42,773
[French general
1] Keep the line!

1430
02:13:44,816 --> 02:13:47,236
[soldiers shouting]

1431
02:13:50,280 --> 02:13:52,908
Skirmishers, keep
advancing! [yelps]

1432
02:13:52,991 --> 02:13:54,385
[French general 2]
Get in formation.

1433
02:13:54,409 --> 02:13:56,161
Fire at will.

1434
02:14:01,458 --> 02:14:03,794
[British general 2] Keep
them back, men. Fire.

1435
02:14:03,877 --> 02:14:06,880
[drums playing]

1436
02:14:06,964 --> 02:14:10,133
Go on, go on. Don't
let them rally!

1437
02:14:14,388 --> 02:14:17,099
[British general 2 speaks
indistinctly] …the strike position.

1438
02:14:17,182 --> 02:14:19,643
[French runner] Get up,
boys. Go on. Go on, boys.

1439
02:14:21,228 --> 02:14:22,563
Whoa, whoa.

1440
02:14:25,107 --> 02:14:28,026
Prussians, roadside, five miles.

1441
02:14:29,736 --> 02:14:31,363
[French general] Five
miles, maybe less.

1442
02:14:33,365 --> 02:14:35,033
We have to act before
Blücher arrives.

1443
02:14:35,701 --> 02:14:36,702
Out.

1444
02:14:39,538 --> 02:14:40,539
Out!

1445
02:14:51,466 --> 02:14:54,219
- [British general 2 shouting]
- [French general] Cavalry!

1446
02:14:55,512 --> 02:14:57,306
Charge!

1447
02:14:57,389 --> 02:14:59,641
[French army shouting]

1448
02:15:04,313 --> 02:15:05,814
Prepare to receive cavalry.

1449
02:15:05,898 --> 02:15:08,358
[British general] Prepare
to receive cavalry.

1450
02:15:09,359 --> 02:15:10,777
[soldiers shouting]

1451
02:15:17,034 --> 02:15:21,413
[Wellesley] We must hold our
ground. Stand fast to the last man.

1452
02:15:21,496 --> 02:15:23,749
We must not be beat!

1453
02:15:24,541 --> 02:15:26,793
Or what will they
say in England?

1454
02:15:26,877 --> 02:15:30,047
- [British general] Hold the line.
- [British soldier] Keep it tight.

1455
02:15:30,130 --> 02:15:33,008
[soldiers shouting]

1456
02:15:34,384 --> 02:15:37,888
[British general] Steady,
men. Stay in formation.

1457
02:15:41,308 --> 02:15:43,685
[French soldier] Long
live the emperor!

1458
02:15:46,021 --> 02:15:47,940
[British general] Company, halt!

1459
02:15:48,607 --> 02:15:51,985
[British general 2] Form
square! Form square!

1460
02:16:02,246 --> 02:16:04,915
[shouting, clamoring]

1461
02:16:07,626 --> 02:16:10,212
[French general] Long
live the emperor!

1462
02:16:13,298 --> 02:16:16,969
[British general] One section,
fire. Two section, fire.

1463
02:16:17,928 --> 02:16:20,681
[soldiers shouting, grunting]

1464
02:16:27,646 --> 02:16:28,646
[screams]

1465
02:16:30,482 --> 02:16:31,483
[grunts]

1466
02:16:33,360 --> 02:16:36,280
[French general] What do we do,
sir? We can't break through.

1467
02:16:36,362 --> 02:16:38,922
[British general] Keep them running.
Get in back with the square.

1468
02:16:41,535 --> 02:16:43,120
Show them your British steel.

1469
02:16:46,748 --> 02:16:49,709
[breathing heavily]

1470
02:16:54,798 --> 02:16:56,758
[French general] Present arms!

1471
02:16:58,135 --> 02:16:59,136
[huffs]

1472
02:17:00,469 --> 02:17:01,805
Shoulder, hold!

1473
02:17:06,393 --> 02:17:08,145
- They're here, the Prussians.
- [grunts]

1474
02:17:11,022 --> 02:17:12,900
- [grunts]
- First over the rise, Emperor.

1475
02:17:12,983 --> 02:17:14,692
[panting]

1476
02:17:28,999 --> 02:17:31,293
[soldiers shouting]

1477
02:17:38,925 --> 02:17:41,011
[French soldier 1] We need
to find a way through!

1478
02:17:43,847 --> 02:17:45,967
[French soldier 2] Break the
square. Break the square!

1479
02:17:46,975 --> 02:17:48,602
[screams]

1480
02:17:50,145 --> 02:17:51,772
[clamoring]

1481
02:17:56,485 --> 02:17:57,778
[Napoleon] Charge bayonets.

1482
02:17:58,654 --> 02:18:00,489
[French general]
Charge bayonets!

1483
02:18:02,574 --> 02:18:07,120
Your Emperor is with you. You
are the brave of Austerlitz.

1484
02:18:07,995 --> 02:18:09,540
Never surrender.

1485
02:18:10,374 --> 02:18:12,876
For homeland and glory!

1486
02:18:19,758 --> 02:18:22,511
[British general] Shoulder
to shoulder! Form lines!

1487
02:18:22,593 --> 02:18:24,263
[British general 2]
Shoulder to shoulder.

1488
02:18:25,638 --> 02:18:27,724
[soldiers shouting]

1489
02:18:29,101 --> 02:18:30,101
[exclaims]

1490
02:18:31,227 --> 02:18:32,521
Infantry, advance.

1491
02:18:33,021 --> 02:18:38,861
- Battalion! [indistinct] Advance!
- [sighs]

1492
02:18:44,532 --> 02:18:45,909
[French general] Keep the line!

1493
02:18:48,202 --> 02:18:50,414
[British general] Footmen, fire!

1494
02:18:54,334 --> 02:18:56,420
Second line, fire.

1495
02:19:00,340 --> 02:19:01,717
Prepare to charge!

1496
02:19:04,136 --> 02:19:05,512
Charge!

1497
02:19:10,767 --> 02:19:12,269
[soldiers shouting]

1498
02:19:12,352 --> 02:19:14,062
[British general]
Go on! Batter them!

1499
02:19:16,481 --> 02:19:18,650
[British general 2]
Advance! Advance!

1500
02:19:30,913 --> 02:19:32,121
Cavalry advance, sir?

1501
02:19:33,373 --> 02:19:34,665
Cavalry advance.

1502
02:19:35,250 --> 02:19:37,669
[British general] Prepare
for counterattack.

1503
02:19:37,753 --> 02:19:42,508
Men, enter. Full support.

1504
02:19:42,591 --> 02:19:45,177
[shouting]

1505
02:19:55,604 --> 02:19:56,605
[screams]

1506
02:19:57,105 --> 02:19:58,690
[screaming]

1507
02:19:59,399 --> 02:20:01,318
[soldiers screaming, grunting]

1508
02:20:11,078 --> 02:20:13,288
[grunting]

1509
02:20:17,459 --> 02:20:21,255
No. He can't help himself.

1510
02:20:22,506 --> 02:20:24,216
[British general] Sir, Blücher.

1511
02:20:30,931 --> 02:20:31,932
Thank God.

1512
02:20:32,432 --> 02:20:37,396
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

1513
02:20:38,730 --> 02:20:41,608
Come see how masse
de la France dines!

1514
02:20:41,692 --> 02:20:44,278
Yeah! Hyah!

1515
02:20:44,361 --> 02:20:45,487
[pants]

1516
02:20:46,280 --> 02:20:48,198
[gunshot fires]

1517
02:21:10,470 --> 02:21:12,764
Yeah! Yeah!

1518
02:21:14,099 --> 02:21:16,268
[soldiers struggling]

1519
02:21:19,605 --> 02:21:20,898
[shouting, screaming]

1520
02:21:47,216 --> 02:21:51,678
The battle is mine. There
will be an end to the war.

1521
02:21:57,893 --> 02:21:59,228
[whistle blowing]

1522
02:21:59,311 --> 02:22:01,146
[British general]
Senior officer, on deck!

1523
02:22:03,690 --> 02:22:05,567
Good day, good day, good day.

1524
02:22:08,820 --> 02:22:14,201
I am the first to admit when I
make a mistake. But I never do.

1525
02:22:14,284 --> 02:22:16,119
Because it is geometry.

1526
02:22:17,579 --> 02:22:19,957
I simply know precisely
where to place a cannon.

1527
02:22:21,500 --> 02:22:26,213
But tragically I cannot transfer this
knowledge to my marshals. [sighs]

1528
02:22:27,297 --> 02:22:30,509
That might be what is
most difficult in life.

1529
02:22:32,469 --> 02:22:34,137
Accepting the
failures of others.

1530
02:22:35,222 --> 02:22:36,473
You must not do that.

1531
02:22:38,934 --> 02:22:40,269
Encourage greatness.

1532
02:22:45,607 --> 02:22:47,818
- Mind your head, sir.
- [Wellesley grunts]

1533
02:22:49,653 --> 02:22:51,405
[British general]
Mind your head, sir.

1534
02:22:58,537 --> 02:23:01,623
- What are they doing there?
- Sir, it's the midshipmen. They adore him.

1535
02:23:01,707 --> 02:23:02,791
Well, get 'em out.

1536
02:23:02,875 --> 02:23:04,793
Clear the room. Uh, quickly.

1537
02:23:21,185 --> 02:23:23,228
- Your grace...
- Good morning, General.

1538
02:23:23,312 --> 02:23:24,605
These boys are delightful.

1539
02:23:26,523 --> 02:23:27,816
May I sit down?

1540
02:23:27,900 --> 02:23:28,901
Please.

1541
02:23:28,984 --> 02:23:31,486
[clears throat, sniffs]
And this breakfast.

1542
02:23:32,487 --> 02:23:36,867
Now I know why you have such
a successful navy. Thank you.

1543
02:23:37,659 --> 02:23:40,287
- [grunts]
- [Wellesley clears throat]

1544
02:23:42,748 --> 02:23:45,125
I've never visited the
English countryside.

1545
02:23:45,209 --> 02:23:47,085
I imagine I'll
love the Cotswolds…

1546
02:23:50,547 --> 02:23:53,634
- soft flowing hills, gentle light.
- [sighs]

1547
02:23:55,594 --> 02:23:59,973
Uh, my dear sir, it is only
by a narrow margin of opinion

1548
02:24:00,057 --> 02:24:02,267
that you have been spared
the fate of being shot.

1549
02:24:02,351 --> 02:24:03,435
[scoffs]

1550
02:24:03,519 --> 02:24:06,271
[chuckles] Politically,
I'm afraid it's impossible

1551
02:24:06,355 --> 02:24:09,775
for the British government to
allow you to stay in England.

1552
02:24:11,860 --> 02:24:14,905
You are permitted three
officers and 12 servants

1553
02:24:14,988 --> 02:24:17,199
to accompany you into exile.

1554
02:24:18,033 --> 02:24:21,703
Exile will be contained to
the island of Saint Helena

1555
02:24:21,787 --> 02:24:26,375
under the watchful eye of Governor
Hudson Lowe and his family.

1556
02:24:26,458 --> 02:24:27,459
[grunts]

1557
02:24:28,710 --> 02:24:29,711
Saint…

1558
02:24:30,921 --> 02:24:34,341
Helena. It's a small island.

1559
02:24:34,424 --> 02:24:36,802
[chuckles] More
of a rock, really.

1560
02:24:37,845 --> 02:24:40,597
A thousand miles from
the mainland of Africa.

1561
02:24:41,348 --> 02:24:45,853
I'm told it's very pretty, tranquil.
You'll have time to reflect.

1562
02:24:47,563 --> 02:24:49,731
Your correspondence
will be monitored,

1563
02:24:49,815 --> 02:24:53,360
your presence verified twice
daily by the orderly officer.

1564
02:25:03,620 --> 02:25:06,874
[crew member] Fix that rigging
line. Draw up the sails.

1565
02:25:08,458 --> 02:25:09,793
Go below deck!

1566
02:25:15,048 --> 02:25:16,466
[crew shouting]

1567
02:25:18,927 --> 02:25:23,265
[Joséphine] What will you do
now? I hate to see you alone.

1568
02:25:24,641 --> 02:25:29,438
Will you come to me?
Will I forgive you?

1569
02:25:31,106 --> 02:25:33,525
My sweet, stubborn Emperor.

1570
02:25:34,610 --> 02:25:37,196
I let you loose and
let you come to ruin.

1571
02:25:38,530 --> 02:25:41,742
Next time, I will be Emperor,

1572
02:25:41,825 --> 02:25:43,744
and you will do as I say.

1573
02:25:51,001 --> 02:25:53,712
[Napoleon] Well, you were right.

1574
02:25:55,130 --> 02:25:57,674
Every night I beg to
see you in my dreams.

1575
02:25:58,592 --> 02:26:01,887
And when I do, you turn me away.

1576
02:26:22,449 --> 02:26:25,327
- [soldiers chattering]
- [children laughing]

1577
02:26:34,336 --> 02:26:36,296
Girls, what's the
capital of France?

1578
02:26:38,841 --> 02:26:39,842
Paris.

1579
02:26:40,551 --> 02:26:41,552
And Russia?

1580
02:26:42,261 --> 02:26:44,513
Petersburg. And Moscow before.

1581
02:26:46,473 --> 02:26:50,894
Moscow. And who burnt
Moscow to the ground?

1582
02:26:55,315 --> 02:26:56,316
I don't know, sir.

1583
02:26:57,776 --> 02:26:58,777
I did.

1584
02:26:59,570 --> 02:27:03,407
I believe, sir, the Russians
burnt it to get rid of the French.

1585
02:27:03,907 --> 02:27:04,908
Who told you that?

1586
02:27:05,701 --> 02:27:07,160
It's common knowledge, sir.

1587
02:27:10,038 --> 02:27:11,164
[children chuckle]

1588
02:27:11,248 --> 02:27:13,542
Go. Go play.

1589
02:27:15,127 --> 02:27:16,128
[child] En garde.

1590
02:27:19,423 --> 02:27:22,009
[Joséphine] Can I tell you
what I have waiting for you?

1591
02:27:22,092 --> 02:27:23,343
[children laughing]

1592
02:27:24,178 --> 02:27:28,390
It is a secret. And I will
show you when you arrive.

1593
02:27:31,977 --> 02:27:37,316
Come to me, Napoleon.
And let's try this again.
