The Last Duel Edit

A child needs his mother

A coincidence.

A cold, callous man who does not love you as I do.

A cold, callous man who does not love you as I do.

A fact not lost on Pierre, I'm certain.

A good soldier and good fortune are not long parted.

A healthy child in these times

A libertine after my own heart.

A little color on one's face proves they're alive.

A love...

A most unspeakable charge has been brought against you.

A name.

A **** cannot cause a pregnancy.

A tragic result, Jean,

A woman

A woman I would devote my whole life to.

About the kissing.

Absolutely not.

Adam Louvel, milady.

Adam Louvel?

Adam Louvel?

Adjudicating this matter who,

Against a man I once considered a friend.

Against any and all enemies of my king.

Against my wife,

Agreed.

Ah, hear me say I'm in love with you.

ALICE: Milady, we've returned.

All 32 members of Your Majesty's court.

All of France is talking about this, and I'm innocent.

All right, let us look at the map.

All right, men! Make preparations for battle!

All the aforesaid charges,

All while speaking of duty and honor.

All you have done is bring shame to our family.

ALL: Amen.

ALL: For the king!

Allow me to introduce my daughter.

Almost so low that one might see the queen's pierced nipples.

Although I am not certain I am experiencing

Among others,

An affair?

An heir to the family name.

And a verdict will be rendered by your overlord

And absolutely none of this is your concern.

And accuse Le Gris to hide this.

And all of France?

And all other manner of people.

And any other,

And at great risk to her name and reputation,

And be tried by the Church

And because I once stood godfather to his late son!

And carnally

And carnally

And command its garrison as captain

And despite my protestations and my revulsion,

And do not look so sad.

And do you experience pleasure at the end?

And drink you all under the table.

And every night hereafter.

And everything that comes with it.

And extends all the way to the hill beyond.

And from what I have heard,

And gifted to my most faithful of squires

And he does not like to kiss me.

And he will be hanged.

And he will.

And he'll stay that way if he knows what's good for him.

And hereby do accuse this squire

And how often they want.

And how would you have done that in my household?

And I am your friend.

And I do hereby deny

And I further maintain, saving the honor of Your Majesty,

And I further maintain...

And I know

And I may not live to see him grow.

And I would do anything for you.

And I've forgotten the name of it, um...

And if this said Jacques Le Gris

And now, you insist upon me?

And now, you've made an enemy of Count Pierre.

And now...

And on the peril of damnation of my soul,

And otherwise, call himself a man of arms.

And our allies have failed to take the port at Brest.

And our sovereign lord,

And Pierre simply gave it to you.

And prolific.

And ready to honor the marriage.

And reveal you for having borne false witness.

And risks nothing!

And shortly after, a man came, unannounced.

And show the good faith of the house Carrouges.

And stricken from the record.

And such an act did, in fact, take place,

And summarily burned alive.

And that could render our child an orphan.

And that he is false

And the collection of rents?

And the cost of labor has now risen.

And the truth will prevail.

And there are many others like me who would prefer you not perish.

And there is no end to my decency.

And there was Le Gris,

And to render him dead at an appointed time.

And to stand before me for the second time in as many years,

And we have been wronged.

And we need to be ready.

And what else?

And what of Aunou le Faucon?

And what of the bride price?

And what of you?

And what said Pierre?

And when they say they do not have it?

And wholly without guilt.

And wicked to say this thing.

And wickedly lied!

And with Our Lady,

And with the aid of God,

And without five of the nine squires under my command.

And yet, here you are,

And yet, under extraordinary pressure

And you are saddled with a terrible burden.

And you are six months pregnant.

And you know as well as anyone our enemy's present.

And you will confound

Any arms that have been forged with spells,

Apparently fruitless.

Apparently, he's letting her out of the dungeon for one time only.

Appreciation of one another's extraordinary good looks.

Are there any more questions?

Are you gonna let your wife speak to me in a tone like this?

Are you ill?

Are you not happy for me?

Are you Squire Jean de Carrouges?

Are you telling me the truth?

Are you telling me the truth?

Are you telling me the truth?

Are you... Are you all right?

Armed in the manner that pleases him,

Arriving in the village next week?

As an appellant in your court

As captain here at Belleme.

As does yours.

As he has in the past.

As I have put the books in order, as well as everything else.

As I say, starting at the hunting grounds.

As if by magic.

As long as you are fulfilling your wifely duties.

As the fates would have it,

As to the sworn testimony of Lady Marguerite,

As well as the lessons learned.

As well as your knighthood.

As you wish. Take your leave. Do as you like.

At the task of producing an heir.

At what cost?

Attempts to flee Paris,

Aunou le Faucon.

Axe, axe!

Aye, great,

Badge of honor.

Badge of honor.

BAILIFF: God be with you, milady.

BAILIFF: His Majesty, King Charles VI!

Be thou a knight in the name of God.

Be thou a knight in the name of God.

Bearing an heir.

Because a feud between your lordship's vassals

Because what happened to me is wrong.

Because you gave it to me.

Bed more,

Before my king and all of France.

Before my master left, he had told me to do so.

Before nightfall.

Before they are dead.

Before this insouciant knight troubles our king any further with this nonsense.

Bernard is a frugal man

BERNARD: Marie!

Besides a bountiful harvest,

Besides,

Best be in there when she does.

Between victory and defeat,

Bitter taste in the mouth?

Brings naught but trouble and distraction.

Broke.

But at what cost?

But Aunou le Faucon is worth twice what I owe.

But by which old man will tire first.

But do not let your loyalty blind you.

But does he know you to be the most exquisite,

But does he know you to be the most...

But he was not alone.

But he was not alone.

But he's illiterate, though, isn't he?

But I cannot return empty handed.

But I count him as a friend.

But I do not complain of ****.

But I must defend my name.

But I spied candlelight, and I knew it must be you.

But I swear to you, this charge of **** is false.

But I will miss you.

But if you find it pleasurable, then you are.

But in this hall

But is love a sin, Father?

But it is no trouble.

But my honor compels me to speak.

But my husband does not trust him.

But that's not all this Pierre wants.

But the common mind has no capacity for this sort of nuance.

But there was much about this world that he understood.

But what of my name?

But you are ill. You must stay here, indoors.

But you cannot change right from wrong nor wrong from right.

But you have not been yourself of late.

But you see

But you would die happy.

But, instead, it's become more repulsive.

By this squire

By whomever marries your daughter.

Can he not simply be tried for his crime in the courts?

Captain, rise and be recognized.

Captain. Milady.

Carrouges may yet bleed out.

Carrouges needs an heir.

Carrouges will be furious.

Carrouges, there was no ****.

Carrouges.

Carrouges.

Carrouges.

Carrouges' wife reads? (LAUGHING)

Charges of **** will be brought against you

Charming, I hear.

Charms, enchantments, or any other evil arts,

CLERGY: It is not a matter of course.

Combined with various other factors,

Come down, my boy! Le Gris!

Come on, then!

Come on, you failed scum...

Come, Pierre.

Come.

Come.

Comes from a long line of war horses.

Confess to me.

Congratulations, my friend.

Could be preventing conception.

Could I wait inside while he's reshod?

Could you not run?

CRESPIN: Pax! Well done!

CRESPIN: Pax! Well done!

Crop yields are down. Labor costs are up.

CROWD: Bravo!

Crude as he is.

Cunt.

De Thibouville?

Declare yourself.

Denies his crime,

Deny, deny, deny.

Despite Le Gris' many deplorable qualities,

Did feloniously

Did he not side with the English against us at Poitiers?

Did I go crying to my lord

Did not suit me.

Did she not leave Alice?

Did you experience pleasure?

Did you not miss me?

Did you not miss me?

Do all squires enjoy such lavish gifts?

Do as you must.

Do not feel badly, my love.

Do not feel badly, my love.

Do not keep Our Lord Pierre waiting.

Do not let this obduracy take you.

Do not open the door.

Do they complain?

Do you enjoy having intercourse with your husband?

Do you know the name of this cheese?

Do you not recall?

Do you swear upon your life

Do you think I would deny the rabble of Argentan

DOCTOR: Flaccid joints.

DOCTOR: How is your sleep?

Does that knowledge also apply to numbers?

DOWRY LAWYER: The wedding will proceed!

DOWRY LAWYER: You will have 330 livres in coin,

Drink this.

DRIVER: Whoa!

Dull? The book is wretched.

Duty demands that I report to Pierre.

Each man is to fight

Enjoy your time in Paris,

Enlighten me, my squire, as to what is right.

Especially

Everyone who looks at a woman with lust

Everything I have is yours.

Everything I have is yours.

Everything started functioning properly, and his fortunes turned.

Everything will be the way it was...

Everywhere, always, at all times, and to all men.

Evidently, Pierre is not happy.

Excellent.

Except an heir.

Except for weapons or devices of equal design

Exquisite...

Faith, Marguerite.

Fascinating woman?

Fascinating woman?

Father. Mother.

Find more favor... (CHUCKLES)

Fine.

Fitted by the neck with an iron collar,

Five.

For a more satisfying wedding night.

For anyone here to be armed,

For as I see it, last time you emerged was to file suit against me

For Crespin's celebration.

For having such a beautiful wife.

For land I lawfully owned

For land that is rightfully mine.

For services rendered by him unto me.

For the accused to burn for 20 to 30 minutes

For the king!

For the king!

For your own safety.

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.

Formally, this is not about her.

From what I have heard,

Furnishings, cloth, and jewels

GATEKEEPER: Declare yourself!

GATEKEEPER: Open the gates!

Gave me this as a sign of his gratitude.

Gentlemen, welcome.

Give my old friend a kiss.

Give my old friend a kiss.

Give our old friend a kiss

Go upstairs before the others think you a harlot.

God has spoken,

God is faithful.

God will not punish those who tell the truth.

God will spare those who tell the truth.

Good evening.

Good evening.

Good friend. No, almost,

Good God, man, tell me you're not here to sue me again.

Good morning to you, milady.

Good morning, Henri.

Good night, dear.

Good night.

Good night.

Got on with my life.

Had I had known the truth would deprive me of this love,

Happens to be me. (CHUCKLES)

Has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

Has been telling any and all who will listen

Has falsely

Has my mother quarreled with you yet again?

Has now resigned the campaign and orders us home.

Have a gown made.

Have you ever known me to lack the company of women?

Have you heard we've a famous tailor from Paris

Have you lost your dignity?

He attacked me.

He believed he would succeed. His intentions were good.

He copies the dresses Queen Isabeau's been seen wearing.

He does not favor me as he does you.

He forced you?

He has become Pierre's most trusted.

He has bled for this king.

He has quite the wine cellar.

He is filing an appeal to His Majesty at this very moment.

He is not like Jean, handsome and generous.

He knows of me.

He may acquire more property in this world,

He may kill you.

He needs us all right now.

He pinned me down, I protested.

He poisons milord with evil advice.

He postures and mopes about like a black cloud.

He ****d me.

He ****d me.

He will call me "sir."

He will never change. Why even try?

He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear.

He will.

He would have been spared the sight of this humiliation.

He would say I have enough dresses.

He'll marry his own daughter to Jean de Carrouges.

He's coming!

He's handsome.

He's no fucking fun.

He's not without reason.

He's providing shelter and vittles for us.

He's saying he will take the matter to the king.

He's suing me!

He's suing you, too. He's suing us both.

He's well enough to travel.

He's with us now.

Hear, hear. Well spoken, old friend.

Heaven and earth what?

Heaven and earth!

Hello.

HENRI: Yes, milord.

Henri?

HERALD: Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye!

HERALD: My lords! My lords!

Here, as a man of honor,

Here, come take some evil inside you.

Here.

His accounts were in complete chaos.

His Majesty needs us all right now.

How a smile and a kind word go much further than a threat.

How can I seek absolution for love?

How can this be?

How can you speak to me like this?

How can you speak to me this way?

How dare you speak to me this way.

How dare you?

How dare you?

How do you sue for that which was never yours?

How does a man of war become so learned in letters?

How is it the other vassals paid?

However, I think a great deal of yours.

However, she's fast at work growing our eighth child

I am

I am a good wife.

I am innocent of the crime!

I am lost.

I am not afraid.

I am not like you, Jean.

I am proud of you.

I am so happy to see you.

I am telling the truth.

I am telling the truth.

I am very glad you chose to attend.

I am your wife.

I ask forgiveness.

I begged you to find another way, and now I may be burned alive.

I believe I would have done what many women before me had done.

I beseech you, tell no one.

I bought this mare for breeding.

I came here to tell you I will not be joining you

I cannot be silent. I must speak.

I cannot bear to see you in such hardship.

I cannot bear to see you in such hardship.

I cannot just give it to him.

I cannot.

I carry a sin that weighs heavy upon my heart.

I charge that during the third week of this January past,

I confessed my adultery, and performed my penance.

I could not have asked

I decide who is the captain at Belleme.

I did not have this problem with my first wife.

I do not accept this!

I do not know.

I do not read Latin.

I do not wish to interrupt such an occasion,

I don't embark on it just to fight.

I don't embark on this campaign recklessly.

I don't have it.

I don't imagine one would suffer too greatly

I don't know.

I enjoy doing these tasks.

I fail to see the amusement here, milord.

I finally gave birth to a son who I love more than I could have ever imagined...

I forbid you from leaving the grounds.

I grace you with honor, knight.

I had no idea what a lucky man Carrouges was

I have a great favor to ask.

I have a plan.

I have all that I need.

I have already visited all the other tenants in his domain.

I have business with the treasurer for my payment.

I have come to see you.

I have committed the sin of adultery

I have missed you.

I have no legal standing without your support.

I have seen those.

I have such wonderful memories of my summers there.

I have to go.

I hazard my life in combat with Jacques Le Gris.

I hereby find said Jacques Le Gris to be completely innocent

I hope this was pleasurable for you.

I just wondered if I could come inside and warm myself while he's reshod.

I knew the man, so I let him in.

I knew the man, so I let him in.

I know all about your squire.

I know he is stubborn.

I know how powerful you are.

I know not what to say.

I know that this reconciliation must have been difficult.

I know you love me, too. You must.

I know you miss it.

I know you yearn to defend your name and your honor,

I know your house's finances are fragile.

I know your house's finances are fragile.

I love you more than any other, and I would do anything for you.

I make no apologies for Robert de Thibouville.

I may have more power than you think.

I much prefer Percival's Courtesy.

I must know. This is a serious matter.

I need money.

I offer you a name of value.

I once held a place in his heart.

I once thought his appearance would become more pleasing,

I only speak the truth.

I order the criminal complaint annulled

I pledge to do whatever is necessary to prove my innocence.

I prefer not to be pink.

I prefer to take my chances with the wolves.

I prefer you to be in good spirits as I go off to war.

I prepared for a life in the church.

I present myself,

I present myself,

I present the knight, Sir Jean de Carrouges!

I remember my father built a swing on the largest tree in the estate.

I said to Pierre,

I say to you whatever I like.

I screamed until I lost my voice.

I screamed, I cried out as best I could, but there was no one here.

I screamed.

I see you have some sun on your face, milady.

I see.

I see.

I serve the king.

I shall be heard!

I shall be prepared to assume this captaincy

I shall return in a few months.

I shall wait up for absolutely none of you.

I should expect she's capable of performing her wifely duties?

I should like to see my friends.

I should like to stay a while longer.

I should like to use the horses.

I should not be seen nor heard with you.

I spoke the truth.

I stand ready

I swear I shall serve you for life.

I swear it.

I think of nothing else.

I think that it is Roquefort.

I think very little of his character.

I think you would enjoy it. We will ride

I think... (CHUCKLES) There you go.

I thought it rather dull.

I told her in no uncertain terms.

I trust your little death was a memorable and a productive one.

I understand the numbers,

I understand.

I want a child so very badly.

I want him to answer for what he has done.

I want only for your happiness.

I was angered, but I spoke well.

I was born with neither a name nor wealth.

I was in Paris when the news came.

I was not here to protect you.

I was overpowered. There was nothing I could do.

I was pinned down, I could not breathe.

I was ****d.

I was ****d.

I was trying to have a word with your lord.

I will appeal to God.

I will assume the captaincy.

I will be fighting under Admiral de Vienne.

I will be in my chamber.

I will be safe and well attended to by Alice and your mother,

I will explain your situation.

I will find the largest tree and do the same.

I will keep quiet, too.

I will not allow him to be the last man to have known you.

I will not allow it to go unpunished.

I will not allow this to go unpunished.

I will not appeal to the king.

I will not be patronized

I will not be silent.

I will not be staying, milord.

I will not be staying, milord.

I will protect this fortress of Belleme

I will read. The Book of Love.

I will return in just a few months, my love.

I will sue! I will sue you for this!

I will.

I wonder.

I work better alone.

I would devote my whole life to.

I would happily strengthen that reputation.

I would not wager against Jean de Carrouges in battle.

I would've stopped it.

I... (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

I'd hoped to surprise you at court.

I'll be away one week.

I'll be away one week.

I'm a very jealous man, milady.

I'm afraid there's more to my visit than I have let on.

I'm alive.

I'm ashamed to have to ask a great favor.

I'm bound for Paris.

I'm not a coward.

I'm not permitted to open the door.

I'm owed money by the treasurer.

I'm pregnant.

I'm proud of you, milord.

I'm ready.

I'm so sorry to have to ask.

I've heard all about you from the ladies at court.

I've never enjoyed this particular cheese, but sadly, it's everywhere.

I've never felt such joy. I'm pregnant.

I've never seen you like this, milord.

I've only been married a short time,

I've said publicly that this never happened!

I've waited for 20 years!

If after five years of marital relations,

If either combatant should carry onto the field of battle

If either man

If he goes alone, he will die.

If I could...

If the story is known across Normandy,

If we are to sow the oats in time for harvest,

If we...

If you appeal to the king, he will only side with Pierre

If you die, all you have will revert to Count Pierre.

If you run, I will only chase you.

If you run, I will only chase you.

If you run, I will only chase you.

If your husband hears of this,

If your husband hears of this, he may kill you.

If your husband were to lose the duel, it would demonstrate God's judgment

In addition to the estate at Mont a Gudot as well as...

In appreciation of my service.

In as many languages as you do, I'm told.

In his sleep.

In honor of your service to our king.

In just three years,

In my company,

In Saint Pierre.

In the case of ****,

In the third week of January last,

In this case, Jean de Carrouges.

Including God's will,

Indeed,

Indeed, I return a knight.

Indeed?

Is cause for a celebration.

Is it greater than love?

Is it?

Is that understood?

Is that you are to be stripped and shorn,

Is this not part of the dowry?

It comes as God wills it.

It costs money.

It does, milord.

It has various colors laced through it. Oh, uh...

It is a property crime against her male guardian.

It is I. Helen of Troy.

It is imperative that you have a pleasurable conclusion

It is only just to support the men who fight for the king.

It is ordered now that the parties present the affidavits

It is quite common

It is strictly prohibited,

It is to be part of my daughter's dowry.

It is true, I confess, it is a feeling I've never had before.

It is unfortunate, however,

It is. Will wonders never cease?

It never happened.

It should be settled quietly.

It was an honor to be there with you.

It was not against her will.

It was right.

It will always be your word against that of Jean de Carrouges.

It will be taken as a sign of his guilt.

It would be better for the health of the mare

It's a boy.

It's a great honor for Pierre

It's a much more challenging and interesting novel.

It's a roof over our heads.

It's a shame we had not met until tonight.

It's been a year since Belleme.

It's been hard going for them.

It's Marie. I'm here to see Marguerite. Is she in?

It's me.

It's my pleasure to host you and your men.

It's my pleasure.

It's not my doing.

It's not safe.

It's one of my most valuable estates.

It's strange she would claim **** and risk her life.

It's taken all my strength not to return to her.

It's the only way he could pay what he owed.

It's the quality that most recommends you.

It's time to heal this wound.

It's too great and storied a name for you to treat it so recklessly.

It's, uh, I, Adam Louvel, milady.

Jacques Le Gris entered our home without my permission and...

Jacques Le Gris,

Jacques Le Gris.

Jacques, it is you and I here.

JACQUES: 14.

JACQUES: For your own safety.

JACQUES: He needs money as well.

JACQUES: He's suing me.

JACQUES: I think you'd enjoy it.

JACQUES: It's good to see you, my friend.

JACQUES: Lance, lance! Hurry!

JACQUES: Milady, forgive me for intruding.

JACQUES: No, you have much to live for.

JACQUES: Oh, you feel yourself guilty.

JACQUES: The wolves have not slept, either.

JACQUES: They're baiting you, Jean.

JACQUES: This is it.

JACQUES: You have.

JACQUES: You heard the lady. Leave us!

Jean de Carrouges evidently,

Jean de Carrouges has filed a lawsuit for a piece of property.

Jean de Carrouges will not be the new captain at Belleme.

Jean de Carrouges,

Jean de Carrouges!

Jean does what he feels is necessary.

Jean insisted I not be left alone. You heard him.

Jean, an invitation has arrived.

Jean, have you not heard?

Jean, I intend to speak the truth.

Jean, I'm very pleased to see you. It's been a long time.

Jean, please! I am telling you the truth. You must believe me.

Jean, we were ordered by Pierre to hold this bridge.

Jean, we were ordered by Pierre to hold this bridge.

Jean, you are unwell.

JEAN: (SIGHS) It's a pity Pierre took that estate from your father.

JEAN: All the preparations are made.

JEAN: And Argentan.

JEAN: And so, I ask for your help.

JEAN: For the king!

JEAN: I have missed you.

JEAN: I return a knight.

JEAN: I will make no apology for how you men fought today.

JEAN: I will not stand by whilst Lower Normandy falls.

JEAN: I'll have that piece of land as well.

JEAN: I'm owed money.

JEAN: If the story is known across Normandy,

JEAN: It would require a full convening

JEAN: Lance! Lance!

JEAN: Leave us.

JEAN: My God, Marguerite,

JEAN: Open the gate!

JEAN: Quickly! Give it to me!

JEAN: So, this is Aunou le Faucon.

JEAN: The gates remain closed!

JEAN: What a beauty.

JEAN: What of this here? The one to the north?

JEAN: While I'm gone,

JEAN: You and I agreed this land should be assumed

JEAN: You promised me.

Jean.
