陛下 Your Majesty.
爸爸 你的早餐準備好了 Papa, we've made you breakfast.
只是弗朗索瓦太小了 拿不住托盤 Only Francoise is too little to carry the tray,
只好叫菲利普來幫把手 so we have Philippe to help.
沒錯 叔父 我最強壯了 Yes, Uncle. I am the strongest.
我可以拿動 I could carry it.
- 夫人 - 陛下早安 - My queen. - Good morning, Majesty.
眾所周知 即將到來的五月份 Be it known that we intend to hold court
我們在將會在凡爾賽宮 at the Palace of Versailles
臨朝聽政 within the coming month of May.
鼓掌 Clap.
看出來 及時做出正確的反應的重要性了嗎 Do you see how important it is to elicit the appropriate response?
是的 Yes.
在這個美好吉祥的時節 To this auspicious end,
人性的最美之處 the finest examples of humanity
將會在永恆壯麗的凡爾賽宮 shall embody the true glory of France
將法國的榮耀展現得熠熠生輝 in a palace of eternal and resounding splendor.
記下來 Take note.
人民崇尚你的口才 Your eloquence they must love,
人民敬畏你的風度 your demeanor they must fear.
我還下令 I have further commanded
叫法國最頂級的大師 that the greatest masters of France will realize this vision
來打造這世間無二的 unparalleled in the history of the world
精緻園林 in gardens of exquisite
和極美景致 and matchless beauty.
天堂 Heaven
就應是這裏的樣子 shall be here.
小 混 亂
主人 天要黑了 The light is fading, master.
點火 Torches!
夫人？ Madame?
是那個嗎？ Is it?
明天十一點起 為期一周 A week tomorrow at 11:00.
別忘了這裙子很長 Don't forget about the length.
要是踩到了 就會從腰部撕開 If you stand on the hem, you'll rip it at the waist.
這裏勒得有點緊 It's pinching me here.
謝謝 Thank you.
勒·諾特爾大師 Master Le Notre,
很高興認識您 I am delighted to make your acquaintance.
我一直很仰慕您的作品 I've long been an admirer of your work.
勒·諾特爾？ Le Notre?
要我評價的話 實在高明 Too clever by half, if you ask me.
遠超出他父輩的名氣 And riding on his father's name.
我應徵的策略就是模仿 The strategy I employ is to imitate.
王室喜歡聽好話 They cannot resist flattery.
權貴之人只愛慕虛榮 'Tis all vanity to these bigwigs.
當然如果想加入必須有絕技 Of course, once you're in, you must have the talent.
談到虛榮心 Speaking of vanity,
紳士們 這頂帽子真不錯 there's a hat, now, gentlemen.
那人是誰？ Who is this person?
是鮑勞夫人 That's Madame de Barra.
真是美呆了 I'm astounded by that.
這是莫夫先生的規劃圖 Monsieur Mauve's plans.
克勞德 還有多少人競選？ How many more candidates, Claude?
這個之後還有三個 先生 但是快了 Three more, monsieur, after this one, but the end is in sight.
或許無聊 或許失禮 我的觀點很明確 Dullness or disrespect, that is my apparent choice.
要不是國王要求的面積太大 If the king's demands were not so vast,
我就親自參與園林的修建了 I would build the gardens myself.
大師 說的沒錯 Indeed, master.
那現在… And in the meantime...
莫夫先生 Monsieur Mauve.
鮑勞夫人 Madame de Barra.
杜拉斯先生 Monsieur Duras.
- 新做的大衣？- 賤內的主意 - That a new coat? - The wife's idea.
週二舊衣服上濺上了泥點 Be covered in mud by Tuesday,
但是她覺得我們會成功 but by then she thinks we'll have this job,
所以即便花了不少錢 這件衣服也是值的 so the coat will have been a worthwhile extravagance.
聽來合乎情理 Sound reasoning.
先生們 還未有幸相識 Gentlemen, I've not had the pleasure.
這是讓·裏斯和丹尼爾·勒·維耶勒 Jean Risse and Daniel Le Vielle,
這位是薩賓·鮑勞夫人 Madame Sabine de Barra.
你們都是來面試的嗎？ You're all here for the interview?
沒錯 你呢？ We are, and you?
彼此彼此 The same.
夫人 在巴黎待了多久？ Been in Paris long, madame?
兩年 Two years.
之前做過誰的項目嗎？ And you've worked for someone before that?
我認識省內所有的承包商 I know all the contractors in the provinces.
所有的都是男人 All the gentlemen, that is.
先生 我沒為什麼人做過項目 There is no gentleman, monsieur.
都是獨自完成 I work for myself.
我們都是參加這次面試的嗎？ We all to be interviewed at this time?
我們來得比較早 We're here early
偷偷觀察了一下其他參與者 to spy out the other candidates.
- 我已經從裏面出來了 - 你聊得怎麼樣 - I've been in already. - Oh, how did you fare?
聊了將近一個小時 Spent upwards of an hour with him.
聊到了工程細節 走著瞧吧 Very detailed examination of the work, so, you know, we shall see.
他一定對你印象深刻 You must have impressed him.
我為他的父親工作過 I worked for his father.
我不無希望 I'm not disheartened.
他看上去也蠻有希望的 He seems not disheartened, too.
鮑勞夫人 Madame de Barra.
先生們 失陪 Well, gentlemen.
祝你好運 Best of fates to you.
夫人 我是克勞德·穆蘭 Claude Moulin, madame.
是勒·諾特爾大師的助理 Secretary to Master Le Notre.
您之前與大師見過面嗎？ Have you met the master before?
沒有 I have not.
夫人 Madame.
先生 Sir.
很高興結識您 I'm delighted to make your acquaintance.
一直以來 我都很仰慕您的作品 I have long been an admirer of your work.
我很高興來參加… I am so pleased to attend...
夫人 這是你的規劃圖嗎？ These are your plans, madame?
有些已經在市郊建成了 Yes. Some are to be seen around the country.
有些仍在施工中 Others are still in progress,
還未完成 not yet completed.
然而 根據要求按您的指示 準備了兩套規劃圖紙 However, as required, there are two sets of plans to your instructions.
第五套和第六套 The fifth and sixth, I believe.
沒準被壓在下面了… Perhaps at the bottom...
我已經仔細看過了 I have examined them.
那… Ah. So...
夫人 我能問你一個問題嗎？ May I ask you a question, madame?
大師 隨意問 By all means, master.
你遵循設計的秩序嗎？ Are you a believer in order?
- 秩序？- 景觀設計的秩序 - Order? - Order over landscape?
非常遵循 Well, I admire it.
這些平面上看不出秩序的痕跡 Looking at these plans, there seems to be no trace.
我不贊成 I would not agree.
我認為六的模數 I think there is pattern enough
可以完完全全表現出一種模式… in number six to suggest absolutely...
你遵循景觀設計的秩序嗎？ Do you believe in order over landscape?
秩序 貌似需要回顧羅馬或文藝復興時期 Order seems to demand that we look back to Rome or to the Renaissance.
我的意思是 What I'm saying is, surely,
目前 就沒有法國人自己獨創的 isn't there something uniquely French
大家都推崇的形式嗎？ as yet not celebrated by us?
要想做到也需要遵循秩序 Which needs the rules of order to attain it.
我所有的作品 All of my work
都基於你所不贊同的原則 is based on a principle you choose to deny.
我懷疑 I wonder that you tender yourself
你來申請和我合作 for a position with someone you believe
卻覺得我的思想已過時 to be outdated.
先生 我… Sir, I...
我對您大規模的作品 I have nothing but admiration
除了仰慕 並無其他 for the scale of your work.
你是第一個應用這種技術的人 You were the first to use such techniques.
我為我冒昧的無禮行為 I must apologize for any insult that I may have unwittingly
道歉 offered you.
也許 夫人 Perhaps, madame,
當你和我的家族一樣 when you have been in the public eye
成為公眾焦點 and available for ridicule
容易被人嘲弄 for as long as my family has,
到時候你會對今天的對話有新的理解 you will think again about this conversation.
慢走 Good day to you.
你看有三分鐘嗎？ Three minutes, would you say?
談得怎麼樣？還不錯嗎？ How was the interview? Well?
不怎麼樣 Not so well.
大師 你有傾向的人選嗎？ You have a preferred candidate, master?
國王希望提升完美度 The king wants to improve on perfection
達到不可能的高度 and reach for the impossible.
我被野蠻人包圍了 I'm surrounded by barbarians.
要是做不到 必死無疑 No doubt it's death if I fail him.
更可能是蹲大牢 Prison, more like.
放手一搏 聽天由命 Get your hands dirty, see what grows.
如果是你父親 他會這麼做 That's what your father would have done.
您曾說過 "不論身份 除非遇見 You once said, "No man, however grand,
沒有人會知道他想要的是什麼" "knows what he wants until you give it to him."
沒錯 True.
有位先生相見你 A gentleman wishes to see you.
勒·諾特爾先生 Monsieur Le Notre.
- 他來了？- 別擔心 我留下來幫你 - Here? - Don't worry, I'll stay.
快 Come on.
給 Oh! Here.
去吧 Go on.
夫人馬上會來見你 Madame will be with you presently.
我的父親教會我園藝 My father taught me gardening.
他鼓勵我發現 重塑美麗 He encouraged me to see beauty and re-create it,
與其說是創作 更像是一種信仰的實現 not as an exercise, more as an act of faith.
他說 上帝創造人類的時候 就在花園裏 He told me that God put us first into a garden,
當我們離開伊甸園 命中注定進行覓尋 重塑 and when we lost Eden, we were fated to search and reinvent it again,
但是我們之中 只有部分人有這樣的天賦 but only some of us have the gift of knowing this.
只有部分人有這樣的天賦 Only some of us have that gift.
今天見面前 我偷偷觀察了一下你 I spied on you today before you attended the interview.
你移動了我的一隻花盆 You moved one of my pots.
是的 I did.
我很好奇 I was curious.
我不會佔用你太多時間 I will not take up too much of your time.
我又重新看了下你的規劃圖 I have been looking again at your plans.
你並沒有把它們當回事 我能接受 You did not care for them. I am none the less for it.
說實話 我習慣了 In plain truth, I am used to it.
我沒有說不把你的圖紙當回事 I did not say I did not care for your plans.
我說我並沒有發現設計中的秩序 I said I could find no order in them.
這一堆亂糟糟的東西 This abundance of chaos,
就是你心中的伊甸園嗎？ this is your Eden?
是我的探求 My search for it.
我今天提到 作為公眾人物的壓力 I spoke today of the pressure of being in the public eye.
你可以隨意重複 但是夫人 在我的世界裏 I will spare you any repetition, but, madame, in my world,
即便是無政府狀態 也須由王室操控 even anarchy is by royal command,
即便是混亂 也須有預期而循 and chaos must adhere to budget.
晚安 Good evening.
再見 先生 Later, messieurs.
紳士們 Gentlemen.
歡迎來到凡爾賽 Welcome to Versailles.
希望你找到這沒費什麼力氣 You found your way here without too much effort, I hope.
你給我的地圖太精確了 The map you sent was wonderfully accurate.
我出去還會用到 I shall need it to get back out again.
我們四處轉轉 We shall be traveling about a bit.
鮑勞夫人 這是賽倫先生和維爾先生 Madame de Barra, Monsieur Sualem and De Ville.
他們正在參與馬利水廠 They are building the Marly waterworks
和從那到凡爾賽溝渠的修建 and an aqueduct from there to Versailles,
希望這樣可以減緩這水資源緊俏的問題 which we hope will alleviate the severe water shortage here.
- 夫人 - 先生們 - Madame. - Gentlemen.
鮑勞夫人將會參與 Madame de Barra will be constructing
凡爾賽假山林的建造 the Rockwork Grove here at Versailles.
水源 或者說水源的緊俏 Water, or rather the lack of it,
是個壓迫性的關鍵問題 will be a pressing concern.
大師 國王的目標已經… Master, the king's ambitions are already...
大且不定 我們只要做到迎合需求 Are vast and ever changing, and our task is to meet them.
並無冒犯 沒人能夠滿足無限的需求 With respect, no man can meet infinite demand.
維爾先生 國王的需求不是無限的 The king's commands are not infinite, De Ville.
只是國王的需求而已 They are the king's commands.
的確如此 但是溝渠提供不了太多水 Well, quite so, but the aqueduct can only do so much.
剛開始修建時 When we began construction,
我就在想… I was under the impression that...
過去的已經過去了 The past is history.
我們的任務是 根據現有的規劃 Our task is to suppress nature to our will,
使自然服務於我們的意志 according to the present plans.
但是先生 錢在一點點花掉 But, monsieur, the money being spent.
溝渠帶來凡爾賽的水足夠了 The aqueduct will carry sufficient water
因為必須夠用 to the gardens of Versailles because it must.
記住這個就夠了 That is your brief.
夫人？ Madame?
基本上用了你的方案 It is essentially your plan,
是你提議的六的模數 number six in your submission, I believe.
這部分完全是我最初的構想 This part is entirely original to myself.
看見了嗎？ You see?
和這邊你的規劃完全吻合 It fits onto this end of your plan.
你可以看看這邊怎麼弄 Now you can see the extent of the enterprise.
是的 Yes.
這片場地又大又平 It's a large, flat area.
可以設一個分層佈置的舞台 An arena with tiered sides.
沒錯 Indeed.
管絃樂隊 The orchestra
可以在這裏演奏 will be up here.
管絃樂隊？ Orchestra?
舞場 A ballroom.
露天舞場 It's an outdoor ballroom.
我們有很多施工人員 There is a pool of builders.
需要什麼儘管挑 Select whatever supplies you care to.
想怎麼裝儘管提 Commission whatever embellishments you think appropriate.
時間是有限的 Time is not unlimited.
這是預算 Here's the budget.
盡量控制在範圍內 Try not to exceed it.
大師？ Master?
為什麼選擇了我？ Why me?
林子大了 These gardens should be large enough
什麼鳥都可以有 to embrace voices other than my own.
媽媽 Mama!
來了 I'm coming.
鮑勞夫人 Madame de Barra.
請原諒我來府上打擾您 先生 Monsieur, forgive me for disturbing you at home,
我一直在修改規劃圖紙 but I've been reworking the plans.
如果… 如果在山頂 If... If We fill
修建一座水庫 a reservoir at the top of the hill,
我們就有足夠的水 we would have enough water to run the fountains
供給噴泉和建築物了 and the building works.
如果循環利用 就不需要持續供水 We don't need water continually if we just recycle it.
壓力會將水重新帶回起點 Pressure will force it back up to the start again.
這有條河 And there's a river,
在這地下 here, underground.
我能看看嗎？當然 May I? Of course.
夫人 謝謝你 Well, thank you, madame.
我會仔仔細細研究一下細節的 I will examine these in more detail.
如果反添了麻煩 那我很抱歉 I must apologize if this adds to the turmoil.
我習慣了 I am trained to it.
我可以像好的植物一樣 經受風吹雨打 Like a good plant, I submit.
我們在賭桌邊等了一小時 We waited an hour for a gaming table.
蒙特斯龐和洛贊一直霸佔著 Montespan and Lauzun had monopolized them.
然後聽說她家著火了 Anyway, then came the news her house was on fire.
我們堅信這噩耗會讓她喪失打牌的鬥志 We felt sure this would end her winning streak.
顯然並沒有 侯爵夫人沒有停下來 Apparently not. The marquise played on.
她孩子們沒事 她又能怎樣呢？ Her children were safe, what could she do?
心態之好 為之動容 She showed wonderful spirit and was clapped for it.
安德烈 我穿這條裙子怎麼樣？ How does this dress look on me, Andre?
安德烈 你聽見我說話了嗎？ Andre, are you listening?
非常美 You look very well in it.
你在研究什麼 那麼重要？ What are you studying that's so important?
規劃圖 Some plans.
凡爾賽 Versailles.
這些是那個女人拿來的圖嗎？ Are these the drawings that woman brought to the house?
- 是的 - 猜到了 - They are. - I see.
安德烈 幫我把手套上的扣子繫好 Button these gloves for me, Andre.
不是很靈巧 Blunt instruments.
沒準就是如此 我們才夠般配 Perhaps that's what makes us a good match.
你富有創造力 You're creative,
但是幹不了細活 but unable for the more delicate maneuvers.
安德烈 你別忘了 Don't forget that, Andre.
我天生貴族 I'm the expert.
你無論做得多好 也只是個園藝師 You're merely the gardener, however grand.
要是沒有我的助力 Without me to promote your interests, well,
用你天才的想像力 好好想想 use your famous imagination.
這些足夠一天的用量了 That's more than enough for one day.
怎麼… What...
你們都… Where are you...
你們都去哪？ Where are you going?
盧克？ Luc?
夫人 瞧瞧你 The sight of you, madame.
這麼大清早的你起來幹嘛？ What time were you up this morning?
是不是又沒睡覺？ Did you not sleep again?
記不清了 I don't remember.
你必須多注意身體 You must take more care.
這樣下去 身體會垮掉 You'll never last at this rate.
那我們該怎麼辦？ Then what will become of us?
我總會權衡的 I always think of something. Hmm.
今天到的 Came today.
說什麼了？ What does it say?
有你認識的嗎？ Anyone you know?
杜拉斯先生 Monsieur Duras.
想來看看你隊伍帶得怎麼樣 Need to know your way around the crews.
結果就剩下你和這堆垃圾了 Otherwise, you end up with the wasters.
之前分給你的人 The lot you had before,
在其他地方侯著呢 they're cooling their heels on another site.
他們不會再來搗亂了 木材商也不會了 Won't bother us again. Same with the timber suppliers.
都是你面試時的一個朋友推薦來的 One of your friends at the interview recommended them.
他可能沒有考慮清楚 Perhaps he hadn't thought it through.
你考慮清楚了嗎？ And you have?
如果你做不成 我們都跟著受罪 If you fail, we all fail.
我承認牽連不多 但是會有 Not pretty, I'll grant, but it's true.
然後呢… So...
然後 我瞭解到委任者的一些調查 So, I learned after some inquiries
除你之外 who had the commissions, and everybody had good laborers
每個人都有左膀右臂 coming out their ears except you.
還不是托你面試時那個朋友的福 Thanks to your friends at the interview.
有些人要比別人失去更多 Some men take losing harder than others.
另一方面 我自己用巨輪換了個老婆 I, on the other hand, have a leviathan for a wife
已然習慣了失去 and am very used to being on the losing end.
什麼大事小情她都要插手 She issued very precise instructions
我從不敢忤逆 which, as I say, I would never dare go against.
大事小情？ Instructions?
"叫她快去幹活" "Ask her for work."
和巨輪相比 人類簡直渺小的可以摧毀 Well, a man snaps like a carrot exposed to the leviathan.
此外 我還有幾個小孩子 Besides, I have little ones.
我在別處就算再卑微 They make me proud,
他們也使我感到驕傲 even if I am humbled elsewhere.
我能把這東西摘下來嗎？ Can I take this off now?
有人給我發了一張去盧浮宮的請帖 I've been issued an invitation to the Louvre.
天哪 Gracious me.
我猜也像這裏一樣壯觀 不錯啊 Supper, too, I expect. Very nice.
會有很多人嗎？ Will there be others there?
凡爾賽會成為我們國家的核心 Versailles shall be the heart of our kingdom,
那裏留存人性最美的典範 inhabited by the finest examples of humanity,
自古以來人類就擁有的美德 fit for the gods of old to behold
在園中可歡歌笑語 and finding their echo in gardens
亦可移步換景 where each new turn brings another excitement.
噴泉輕緩的水流 Fountains whose gentle flow
鎮定我們浮躁的雙耳 is balm enough to ease a ringing ear.
和煦的清風 吹來叢中橙花盛放的幽香 Scented groves of orange blossom blown by temperate winds.
何等輕快 何等美艷 何等希望 What light, what beauty, what hope.
凡爾賽 凡爾賽 Versailles, Versailles,
凡爾賽啊 Versailles.
借過 Oh, pardon me.
夫人 應該從這邊走 I believe this is the way forward, madame.
依我看 夫人 Some cool night air is, I think,
來感受一下清爽的晚風怎麼樣？ in order, madame, do you not?
哦 Oh.
謝謝 Thank you.
夫人 第一次來參加宮廷儀式嗎？ Your first time at court, madame?
這… 這個是宮廷儀式？ Is... Is that where I am?
不然你覺得呢？ Where did you imagine yourself to be?
我不知道 Well, I don't know.
以為是凡爾賽園藝師的聚會而已 A reception for the gardeners of Versailles.
小屋裏的聚餐嗎？ A sort of shed affair?
打扮蠻精緻 How exquisite.
簡直鶴立雞群 A tiara amongst the weeds.
我覺得自己… I think I...
低估了這次活動的層次 先生 I have underestimated the event on some level, monsieur.
安托萬·農帕·科蒙 Antoine Nompar de Caumont,
卜奎利安侯爵 杜克·洛贊 Marquis de Puyguilhem, Duc de Lauzun.
叫我安托萬 Antoine.
- 薩賓·鮑勞 - 好名字 - Sabine de Barra. - Charmed.
我帶你下去走走吧 Now, let me give you the grand tour.
你瞭解我們多少 夫人 我們是籠子裏的金絲雀？ What do you know of us, madame, we mice in a trap?
遺憾地說 並不太瞭解 Not a thing, I'm sorry to say.
四季更替 我們的居所不變 Winter, summer, autumn, spring, we are here.
沒有國王的允許 我們是不可以離開的 We may not leave without permission of the king.
是籠子裏的金絲雀 Yes, mice in a trap.
這地方不大 上上下下只有兩千人左右 A small community, there's only about 2,000 of us.
互相之間都認識 Everybody knows everybody else.
每個人都得和這個圈子打交道 Everybody has worked their way through the group.
"和這個圈子打交道"？ "Worked their way through"?
競爭 合作 等等 Fought with, had an affair with, that kind of thing.
蒙特斯龐侯爵 每次都遲到 Marquise de Montespan. Late, as usual.
是國王的情婦 給他生了不下四個孩子 She's the king's mistress. Has at least four of his children,
但是國王變心了 but his attention has wandered.
現在有新歡了 Now there is a new star rising.
- 哦？- 是曼特農夫人 - Oh? - Madame de Maintenon.
- 她在場嗎？- 極信仰上帝 - And she is here? - Devoted to God.
和一些人不同 Never attends anything as frivolous as a party,
她從不參加這樣無聊的聚會 unlike some people.
別看他們 他們在談論咱們呢 Don't look. They're talking about us.
鮑勞夫人 Madame de Barra.
你… You are...
我… 來晚了？ Am I... Am I late?
不是 No.
- 早了？- 也不是 - Early? - No.
那是什麼？ What, then?
你來了 Here.
你們一起工作的嗎？挺好的 One of your gardeners? Perfect.
我得去陪侯爵共進晚餐了 I must accompany the marquise to supper.
把我的新朋友交給你了？ I could surrender my new friend into your care?
沒問題 Of course.
先生 看好她 Guard her well, monsieur.
周圍都在直勾勾地盯著呢 The vultures are circling.
我很榮幸 It has been my pleasure.
夫人？ Madame?
這裏的生活很特別 It seems an extraordinary life.
但是你可以隨意進出嗎？ But you may come and go?
沒錯 Oh, yes.
我會去附近走走 I'm out and about.
現在他們都要搬到凡爾賽去了 And now they're all moving to Versailles.
搬到小村莊 To a village.
你不和他們一起嗎？ Will you not join them?
慢慢的 我會瘋掉的 I would go slowly mad.
哦 Oh.
他們怎麼看你 種菜的 還是什麼？ Do they think of you as a vegetable grower or something?
夫人 你對我的虛榮心毫不關心 You show no consideration for my vanity, madame.
我敢說你沒有虛榮心 I'm quite sure you possess none.
那麼你呢 薩賓·鮑勞夫人？ What of you, Madame Sabine de Barra?
你會愛慕虛榮嗎？ Are you prone?
記得我戴的帽子嗎？ You remember my hat?
印象深刻 It would be impossible to forget.
花了不少錢 It was a considerable expense.
完全沒有必要的開銷 And entirely unnecessary.
諾利 Nolly!
我的小夥伴 My dear old cabbage!
先生 Monsieur.
快來親我一下 要麼你死定了 Give me a kiss instantly or I shall take grave offense.
看我的帽子多棒 你覺得呢？ What a splendid hat. Do you think so?
今天試戴了一下 之前是從來不戴帽子的 I'm trying it out, I never wear a hat.
- 沒錯 - 別壓到我的假髮 - No. - Fear of squashing my wig.
這位是？ But who's this?
親愛的女士你真美 我扶你 Dear lady, you are prostrate. Allow me.
我來介紹一下 May I present
這是奧爾琳家族的菲利普·杜克 His Royal Highness Philippe, Duke of Orleans?
閣下 這位是薩賓·鮑勞夫人 Your Highness, this is Madame Sabine de Barra.
夫人 很高興認識你 Delighted, madame.
這樣一位品味精緻的女人 How is it that a woman of such exquisite taste
怎麼能和安德烈這樣的土小子在一起呢？ falls in with a clay kicker like Andre here?
閣下 不得不說 我自己也是個土姑娘 I must confess to being a clay kicker myself, Your Highness.
在凡爾賽 我在大師手下工作 I am working for the master at Versailles.
難以想像 I am unable to picture it.
給我們詳細地介紹一下你自己吧 Do tell us how it is that you are.
請讓我介紹一下瓦斯侯爵 Oh. May I present Marquis du Vasse?
- 勒·諾特爾大師 鮑勞夫人 - 很高興認識你們 - Master Le Notre, Madame de Barra. - Delighted.
但是夫人 我還是很好奇 But the mystery remains, madame.
這樣一位難掩風韻的女人 What is a woman of such restrained sophistication
和諾利在這幹嘛呢？ doing with Nolly here?
我是從時尚的角度說的 I speak from the opposite end of the fashion scale.
我不感到這樣不好 我喜歡自己這樣 I don't apologize for it, I like it about myself.
說吧夫人 別叫我一直說下去了 Answer, madame. Stop me talking.
為了賺錢 這是唯一可以做的 It was the only thing I knew how to do, for money.
你喜歡做你的工作？會激勵你？ And you enjoy your profession? It stimulates you?
有過一段艱難的時刻 It has seen me through some very hard times
但是教會了我獨立 and allowed me to be independent.
親愛的們 Dearest!
一般別人怎麼說 我就怎麼做 I simply do as I am told.
即便是屈尊娶了一個大只的德國女人 Even down to marrying large German women.
但我承認 她比我上一任老婆好多了 Though, I confess, I like her better than my last wife,
那女人冷淡得像只門釘一樣 謝天謝地 who is dead as a doornail now, thank God.
快吻我 老公 我需要愛的滋潤 Do kiss me, husband. Lam in need of affection.
和自己的愛人在一起 感覺太好了 It is wonderful to have access to one's spouse.
親愛的 我們這樣太不禮貌了 My dear, we're being very rude.
巴拉汀公主 奧爾琳家族公爵夫人 Princess Palatine, Duchess of Orleans,
容我介紹 這位是鮑勞夫人 她… may I present Madame de Barra, who...
諾利 鮑勞夫人是做什麼的？ Nolly, what is Madame de Barra engaged to do?
親愛的注意聽一定會吸引你的 Hold for this, my dear, it will interest you.
她在凡爾賽 負責一座小瀑布的修建 She is to build a water cascade at Versailles.
這是園林設計中獨一無二的 Nothing like it will exist in the gardens.
這麼棒 How fascinating.
我非常喜歡工程類的事情 I am a great admirer of engineering.
夫人 你一定要答應帶我們去看看 Madame, you must promise to show us.
或許 閣下 Perhaps Your Highnesses
你們不介意在盧浮宮的溝渠旁用午餐吧？ would care to take lunch at the Louveciennes aqueduct?
在市郊嗎？ Is it in the country?
我在市郊總是迷路 I always disappear in the country.
但現在我們都要搬到凡爾賽去了 But now that we are to move out to Versailles,
就像只人形水母 I shall become a human jellyfish.
悲慘得不知何從 A miserable, formless being.
勒·諾特爾大師 我們很樂意參加 We should love to come, Master Le Notre.
我想大家都會去的 Everybody should really attend, I imagine.
來吧 鮑勞夫人 Come, Madame de Barra.
陪我轉轉 給我講講你們的方案 Take a turnabout with me and tell me of your scheme.
很樂意 閣下 With pleasure, Your Highness.
諾利 鮑勞夫人讓我家親愛的感到興奮 Well, Nolly, Madame de Barra has certainly thrilled my dearest.
也讓你感到興奮嗎？ Has she thrilled you also?
她讓人快樂 而且很會做事 She's very diverting and extremely clever at what she does, I think.
真的嗎？ Do you indeed?
我很高興 I am glad.
小伙子不錯 Good man.

當我來到這樣的地方 When I come to a place like this,

我感覺能夠勝任了 and I feel fitter for things.

討論這種事 我感覺不忠誠 I feel disloyal in discussing such matters.
你也結婚了？ You are also married?
沒有 No.
我丈夫去世了 My husband died.
很抱歉 I'm sorry.
你今天說我不計後果 Today you said I was reckless,
不過不計後果是為了捨棄安全 but to be reckless is to abandon safety,
但我認為 是安全捨棄了我 but I think maybe it is safety that has abandoned me.

來訂購灌木 因此要求見到您本人 to order shrubs, such as I require, from your good self.
我還帶了一些精選的多年生植物 I have brought with me a selection of perennials
我想著可以交換 I thought we might exchange.
這是四季花嗎？ Is this the Four Seasons?
是的 沒錯 Yes, I believe so.
嗯 Mmm.
真香 Divine.
顏色也很漂亮 Good color, too.
你說你有精選的植物？ You say you have a selection of plants?
還沒卸貨 在車裏 I had them unloaded into a little cart,
本來打算把它們運送到這裏的 intending to have them conveyed here,
不過好像沒人幫忙 but there seems to be no one about.
我想一個人清靜 把地們都叫走了 I wished to be alone, I had them sent away.
妒果你想一個人清靜的話 那我可以以後再來 If you wish to be alone, I could come back.
不 不 No, no, no.
我發現我今天需要你陪我 I find you are the very company I need today.
對我來說 沒有誰比我這個 Nothing would suit me better than for me,
國王的園丁更合適 the king's gardener,
來給多年生植物提建議了 to take some advice on perennials.
請允許我來幫你 夫人 Allow me, madame, to assist you.
嗯 Hmm.
太好了 先生 Most kind, monsieur.
你真是個梨子專家 大師 You are a devoted pear man, master.
我挺喜歡梨子 但不是極其喜歡 I quite like them, not overly.
噢 Oh...
我覺得大師在跟我開玩笑 I think the master is playing a trick on me.
玩笑？ A trick?
是的 我知道你寫的有關梨子的書 Well, yes, I do know of your book on pears.
我寫了有關梨子的書？ My book on pears?
噢 對 我是寫過一本關於梨子的書 Oh, yes, I have written a book on pears.
我在書裏寫了 我非常喜歡梨子 I believe I said I liked them a lot in my book.
是的 沒錯 I believe you did.
還有多年生植物 And perennials.
你喜歡花嗎？大師 You like flowers, master?
鮑勞夫人 所有的花我都非常喜歡 Madame de Barra, I love all flowers passionately.
我還因為在凡賽爾 種花種的太多 However, I am banished from using as many as I would like
而被勒·諾特爾大師將我驅逐出去 at Versailles by the Master Le Notre.
他縱容我 待在一些小花壇裏 He indulges me in a few small parterres.
我還希望我能跟他交換住所 I'd hoped to be able to convert him when we took up residence.
然後… However...
噢 Oh!
看來你很瞭解我了 You're wise to me now, madame.
那我們就當我沒說 繼續前面的話題吧？ May we ignore all that and continue as before?
今天 Today, I am
我是昆蒂尼先生 Monsieur de la Quintinie.
沒錯 Indeed.
你是的 And you are.
你從凡賽爾搬出來 反而更好吧？陛下 You are the better for the move to Versailles, sire?
沒錯 Very much.
遠離城市 對小孩有好處 It's good for the children to be away from the city.
我知道所有人都覺得這是壓榨 I know it's a crush for everybody.
不過我認為 除非我搬進去 I felt, though, that I should never get the builders out
否則我絕對不會把建築工趕出去 unless I moved in.
你跟建築工熟嗎？鮑勞夫人 You are familiar with builders, Madame de Barra?
目前 我正在修建你在凡賽爾的花園 At present, I am building in your gardens at Versailles.
哪個建築商？ Which construction would that be?
假山林子 The Rockwork Grove.
這個我很熟 I am familiar with it.
我自己做不了主 I cannot claim it entirely as my own.
勒·諾特爾大師看了一下我的草圖 Master Le Notre took a simple sketch of mine
然後就建的非常出色 and made it outstanding, so...
你看出我不情願了吧 You see my reluctance.
你很欽佩他 是嗎？ You admire the master, madame?
他是我瞭解的最徹底的人 He is the most complete person I know.
我也想有個人這麼形容我 You make me lonely for someone to describe me thus.
這些是你的花嗎？ These are your flowers?
我妻子最近去世了 My wife died recently.
你聽說了嗎？ Did you hear?
聽說了 陛下 I did, sire.
我記得你結婚那天的場景 I remember the day of your marriage.
我希望是這樣 那花足了錢 I hope so, it cost enough.
儘管她父親承擔了很大一部分 Though her father paid for a large portion.
他投錯資了 願上帝保佑他 Astray in his wits, bless him.
很悠久的血統 卻沒帶來一件好事 A long bloodline, never a good thing.
她很天真 真的 She was an innocent, really.
但她很美麗 But she was nice.
而且對我很忠誠 And devoted to me.
在她死後我找到了這個 I found this after she died.
這是我們生活的賬目 It's just an account of our lives.
她的字就像孩子寫的一樣 The writing's like a child's.
你看到這裏了嗎？ You see here?
"今天我從陛下手裏救下了一朵花" "Today I saved a flower from His Majesty."
然後是時間地點 And then the time and the place.
這個小女人的生活秘密 This little woman's secret life.
我覺得失去了太多 I feel the loss of it.
我想我該再結一次婚了 I should like to marry again.
這次我選的對象 This time someone I choose,
不是法國人 not the state.
你有過喜歡的人嗎？ Has Your Majesty someone in mind?
有過 但她太虔誠了 I have, but the lady's very pious.
很多個晚上我漫步到她的房間時 我們只是坐下聊天 Most evenings I stroll over to her rooms, and we just sit and talk.
但我就是喜歡這份閒適 But it is the ease of it I like.
閒適 The ease.
不幸的是 她出身太低微了 Unfortunately, she is of no birth,
所以 我有點無計可施了 so, you see, I am at a little impasse.
如果你要和你選中的女人 If you were to be married to
結婚時 the lady of your choosing,
非得讓所有人都知道嗎？ would it be necessary for everyone to know?
如果只是夫妻兩個人私下舉行婚禮 If the ceremony were private, between the couple,
又有誰會指責這樣的結果呢？ who would be in a position to argue the outcome?
事後去指責會顯得很愚蠢 They would be foolish to do so afterwards, when it was done.
嗯 Mmm.
沒錯 Yes.
我們要爭論的東西太多了 So much to contend.
你有什麼打算 鮑勞夫人 And what of you, Madame de Barra?
是什麼動力驅使著你？ What pulse drives you?
你有愛的人嗎？ There is someone you love?
我不能說 I cannot say.
為什麼？ Why?
因為… 這是我的私事 Because... Because of something private.
是什麼愛如此私密 連分享一下都不可以？ What is so private that it cannot be shared in love?
是時候了 夫人 The time has come, madame,
我們都應該放下過去 for us both to face down our past
活在當下 and live in the present.
我應該寫一封供園丁傳閱的信 I shall write a letter from one gardener to another,
我們可以說 回信可以播下種子 shall we say, in return for seeds sown.
那會帶你入場 It will bring you to the court,
在那裏 where my eye
我會一直關注著你 will always be on you.
我不會忘了我們在花園度過的時光 鮑勞夫人 I shall not forget our day in the garden, Madame de Barra.
你還在玩這些小玩意兒 安德烈 Are you still fiddling with your bits, Andre?
它能幫助我思考 It helps me think.
給你的 For you.
上面有鳶尾花紋 It has the fleur-de-lis.
我想這是國王寄來的？ Is it from the king, I wonder?
是一封邀請函？ Is it an invitation?
你還有什麼需要嗎 夫人 There is something you need, madame?
安德烈？這麼保密？ Andre? So secret?
既然你問了 我就告訴你吧 I must inform you, since you ask,
這週末我就要動身去楓丹白露了 that I leave for Fontainebleau at the end of the week.
楓丹白露？ Fontainebleau?
我不知道那兒有什麼活動啊 I was not aware there were activities.
侯爵夫人一定是忘記了 The marquise must have forgotten.
我一個人去 I will travel there alone.
坦率地講 夫人 這就是現狀 Plainly, madame, that is the position.
如果你想指責我也沒關係 If you will excuse me.
鮑勞夫人 Madame de Barra.
她就是你生活中的另一面的嗎 如果我硬要問的話 Is she an aspect of your life I must now include?
安德烈 一個建築師？ Andre, a builder?
我才是建築師 夫人 I'm a builder, madame.
而你就是投資者 You are funded by that profession.
這真有趣 Very amusing.
或許這就是你和她的夢幻生活 Perhaps that is the fantasy between you and she.
誠心所願 So be it.
但是 我必須要求你把這些 However, I must request that
和我們的生活分離開來 you keep it separate from our lives.
如果這層關係被大眾得知 If this liaison became common knowledge,
這就會使我成為笑柄 it would make me a laughingstock.
這會令我毛骨驚然 It makes my flesh crawl.
夫人 我想提醒你的是 是你製造了這個機會 I remind you, madame, that it was you who embarked on this path.
是你 也只有你一手打造了我們現在的生活 You and only you dictated how we live now,
你真的做了 夫人 and you did it, madame,
在我最需要你的時候 when I needed you most.
安德烈 Andre.
我感覺我們的關係處在破裂的邊緣 I feel us at the edge of something here.
我努力想要把我們拉回來 I'm trying to pull us back.
你知道你自己承受了多大的傷害 You knew the damage you inflicted,
但你可以自由地選擇過你的生活 but you have been free to live your life as you wished
而不需要考慮會尷尬 without embarrassment from me.
現在我也請求獲得同等的待遇 I ask you now to extend me the same courtesy.
安德烈 你必須在這裏做一個明智的決定 Andre, you must make the sensible choice here.
別讓我出局 我求你了 Do not exclude me, I beg you.
我也求過你一次 I begged you once.
你還記得嗎 Do you remember?
請允許我把當時你給我的建議還給你 Allow me to give you the same advice you gave me then.
你說 "這是一種非常特別的感覺 You said, "It is a matter of feeling special.
"如果我們不能 彼此讓對方感到特別 "If we are unable, one, to make the other feel special,
"我們必須承認這個事實 "we must just accept it,
"然後到別人那裏 "seek comfort elsewhere
"尋求安慰 "with others.
"這是我誠摯的請求 親愛的 "It is an honest contract, my dear.
"你會慢慢習慣的" "You'll grow used to it."
那就是你說的一切 That is what you said.
根垛怎麼樣了？ What's the root ball like?
有點干 It's a bit dry.
晚上再浸泡一遍 Soak them overnight.
或許沒必要了 You may not need to.
保險起見 Just secure them, then.
我們得把這層蓋上 We should cover these tiers.
我需要更多的繩子 I need more rope.
我需要更多吃的 I need more food.
而且要熱的 In the warm.
你先去 我馬上來 You go on, I'll follow.
鮑勞夫人 Madame de Barra.
我是勒·諾特爾 My name is Le Notre.
夫人有事嗎 Madame.
你有沒有注意要有些人 Did you ever see someone
在你的生活中扮演著重要的角色？ and know that they were to play a role in your life?
我知道你是個寡婦 You're a widow, I believe.
那該多孤獨啊 How lonely that must be.
我有幾次注意到了 安德烈有了秘密的開心事 I've known for some time that Andre had some secret happiness,
但我的丈夫的計劃是只會跟我結婚 but my husband's ambitions are married only to mine.
你也不是第一個人讓他分心了 You're not the first diversion,
我相信在那個時刻 and I believe at the moment,
你不會是唯一的一個 not the only one.
你只是一個過客 You will come and you will go.
懂了嗎 夫人 Understand me, madame.
我的丈夫很擅長做這些事情 It suits my husband and I this way.
你真美 Pretty thing.
我們發現了 連接蓄水池和噴泉的閘門 We found the sluice gate that connects the reservoir to the fountain.
如果我們灌滿水池 水管的壓力就會上升 If we fill it, the pressure in the pipes will build,
然後我們就可以把果園給淹了 and we can flood the grove.
去做吧 Do it.
等會兒 Later.
用木頭壓住 Use the wood to hold it down!
水閘肯定開了 The sluice gate must be open!
我們人手不夠 We need more hands!
那就祈禱吧 Then pray.
該死的發生了什麼 To hell with that.
謝謝 Thank you.
還能修嗎 Will it mend?
會修好的 It will mend.
這一層太薄弱了 The tiers were too weak.
閘門一直開著 The gate was left open.
這不能怪誰 You cannot be blamed for that, or the storm.
我該怎麼做 What should I do?
適應 Adapt.
就像訓練良好的植物一樣？ Like a well-trained plant?
就像訓練良好的植物一樣 Like a well-trained plant.
我對你來說只是一種消遣嗎？ Am I part of an amusement for you?
絕對不是 Not at all.
我對這一切都不習慣 I'm unused to all this.
你是真心的嗎 Is it honest?
- 是嗎？- 不是 - Are you? - No.
當我在花園裏看到你的第一眼開始 我就已經不誠實了 I have not been honest since I watched you in my garden.
你的心跳得很猛烈 而我的很緩慢 Your heart beats fiercely. Mine just ticks.
我沒有那樣的天賦去承受這樣的奇跡 I have not gifts to offer such a wonder.
如果你餓了 我可以給你吃的 If you are hungry, I'll feed you.
如果我瘋了 也麻煩你告訴我 If I am mad, you will tell me.
你沒瘋 You are not mad.
你一點也不瞭解我 You don't know all of me yet.
你餓嗎？ Are you hungry?
餓極了 Starving.
你不開心嗎？ Are you not happy?
是 Yes.
我快要忍不住哭泣了 That's what is making me cry.
我不能 I can't.
什麼也別問 Don't ask me.
我該說什麼？"這就是原創"？ What am I to say? "It is original"?
"還是尚未確定"？ "Continue indefinitely"?
你們是這麼期望的嗎？ Do you expect that of us?
你們是和鮑勞夫人一起工作 You've been working with Madame de Barra.
你要為這個設計負責嗎？ Are you committed to this design?
如果要我說 陛下 If I may say, Your Majesty,
我一開始也像您一樣懷疑 I was just as skeptical as you are in the beginning, like.
但現在呢？ But now?
我改變主意了 就是這樣 陛下 I'm a convert, so to speak, Your Majesty.
就算是現在 這個挫折自然造成的 陛下 Even now, the setbacks were due to nature, sire.
完美不該向自然低頭 Perfection does not bow to nature.
地上的那些是什麼？ What on earth are those things?
陛下 我很開心你會問這個 因為那就是 Well, sire, I'm glad you asked me that, because that, really,
鮑勞夫人真正在做的東西 is what Madame de Barra is.
這個怪東西 陛下 Odd, sire.
我可以給您展示一下嗎？ May I show Your Majesty?
你讓我想起了我對僊女和牧人的評論 You will recall what I said about Nymphs and Shepherds.
年紀大了 看東西就更透徹了 As we age, we see things more clearly.
這個項目 This project,
還值得繼續嗎？ is it worthy of us?
鮑勞夫人的眼光是史無前例的 There's no precedent for Madame de Barra's vision.
信任是我們唯一能給創新者的東西 陛下 Trust is all we can give to those who reach into the new, sire.
但如果能用美麗來形容她的設想的話 But when beauty can be described with such imagination,
那麼她的作品會高於我所知道的一切 then her art, above all I know,
值得歸王室享有 is worthy of the king.
我只看到了泥巴 I see only mud.
你很快就會改觀了 Your words we will weigh later.
但現在 麻煩通知鮑勞夫人 For now, inform Madame de Barra
我會在楓丹白露見她一面 that I shall see her at Fontainebleau.
我不知道 I do not know
這裏面有什麼故事 what story this tells
或對你造成多大的傷害 or what harm it is part of.
這對你我都是一個不好的結局 This is a bad end for both of us,
對此我很抱歉 and I am sorry for it.
歡迎來到楓丹白露 Welcome to Fontainebleau.
安托萬 你看起來真漂亮 Antoine. How beautiful you look.
我覺得這是必須的 I believe it is compulsory.
確實 然而有些女士要穿上就更難了 Indeed. However, some of the ladies find it more of a challenge.
我想說 我好像沒看到你有這個問題 I am bound to say, I see no trace of that challenge in you.
別這麼說 夫人 Do not talk to me about it, madame.
我已經為經費焦頭爛額了 更糟糕的是 I am ruined by the expense, and worse,
別人還對我的遊戲橫加干涉 it is interfering with my gaming.
我必須承認陪你下樓是一個妙計 I must confess that escorting you down is something of a coup.
為什麼呢？ How so?
因為那很多人都想認識你 There are several parties who are anxious to meet you.
不會吧 I am no one.
我身上有什麼有趣的地方嗎？ What could the interest be?
夫人 你自己看 Madame, you answer yourself.
你看到他們看你的眼神了嗎 You see how they look at you?
你在這群大人物中只是一個無名小卒 You are no one where everybody is someone,
但你依然在這裏 and yet you are here.
這就讓你更特殊了 That makes you more the someone.
特別是你還有個伴說話 Especially if you have conversation.
我無話可說了 Words just tumble.
看到了嗎？ You see?
人們都饒有趣味地看著我們走過 因為我很高興 People are looking our way with interest, because of my mirth.

這是你第一次來楓丹白露嗎 Is this your first time at Fontainebleau?
- 是的 - 你是出生平民嗎？ - It is. - Have you no birth?
我一點貴族的血統都沒有 Not a drop. No blood whatsoever.
你能來這裏完全是你自己努力所得 You are here entirely on your own merits.

沒有那個母親能忍受失去自己的孩子 Nobody may ban a child from its mother's heart.
我把孩子都委託給曼特農照顧 I commended all my children into Maintenon's care.
她現在會怎麼評價我呢 How she has turned on me now.
聖潔的老女人 Saintly old bitch.
我很吃驚有一個女修道院沒有承認她 It is an amazement to me a convent has not claimed her.
那裏衣服太少了 Costume's not as lavish.
國王來了 Oh. The king comes.
你以前出席過嗎？ Have you been presented before?
沒有 No.
陛下 我樂意 Your Majesty, it is my pleasure
為您呈見鮑勞夫人 to present Madame de Barra.
夫人 Madame.
陛下 Your Majesty.
它是四季花嗎？ Is it a Four Seasons?
是的 陛下 It is, sire.
對世界上大多數著名的園藝師來說 For the most famous gardener in the world.
請允許我 Allow me,
獻給陛下 Your Majesty.
一股淡淡的 誠摯的香氣 A light, honest scent.
自然而不勉強 Natural and unforced.
有些玫瑰看起來已經凋敗 Some of the roses seem faded
和過了花期了 and overblown.
這就是等待著玫瑰的命運啊 陛下 That fate awaits all roses, sire.
繼續 夫人 Continue, madame.
所有的玫瑰的開放是有自然原理的 陛下 All roses are open to the elements, Your Majesty.
它們蓓蕾 盛開然後凋謝 They bud, bloom and fade.
是那樣嗎 夫人 Is that so, madame?
玫瑰完全沒意識到自己的成長 The rose grows entirely unaware,
只是自然地從一種狀態轉到另一種狀態 changing naturally from one state to another,
儘管自然有時候對她很殘忍 and although the elements may treat her cruelly,
但她毫無所知 只是繼續自己的使命 she knows nothing of it and continues to her end
也絲毫不評判她的美麗 without judgment on her beauty.
唉 Alas,
這跟我們是不一樣的 'tis not the same for us.
如果玫瑰能說話 If such a rose could speak,
她會說什麼呢？ what would she say?
我就在這裏 Yes, I am here
在自然的眼睛下奉獻自己 and gave service under nature's eye,
我死去後 我的孩子會接過我的事業 and after me, my children will be.
還有比這更偉大和更優雅的一生嗎？ Is there any greater contribution or more graceful end?
看來玫瑰是明智的 A wise rose.
那麼園藝師能為玫瑰提供什麼 And what protection can the gardener afford this rose
來面對猛烈的自然變化呢？ from the harsh elements of change?
耐心 關照 Patience, care
而一點來自太陽的溫暖 and a little warmth from the sun
就是我們最大的希望了 陛下 are our best hope, Your Majesty.
我很感激你 夫人 關於那段可愛的言論 I'm obliged to you, madame, for that sweet reminder.
現在跟我一塊走吧 Now walk with me.
然後告訴我你對於 And tell me of
我們花園的計劃 your progress in our garden.
她和藹 Her kindness,
毫不怯場 unbribed.
你今晚很勇敢 That was very brave tonight.
我希望他聽進去了 I hoped he might listen.
你太謙虛了 Enough humility.
你在這裏啊 There you are.
菲利普 Philippe.
你已經穿好衣服了 You're dressed.
我要去沙特爾談生意 I'm off on business to Chartres.
我想帶瑪麗克萊爾一起去 Thought I would take Marie-Claire.
那裏有一個很好的玩偶店和一個餡餅店 There's a good puppet stand and a pie shop.
瑪麗克萊爾 你在那裏嗎？ Marie-Claire! Are you there?
爸爸 你找到她了嗎？ Papa! Did you find her?
這裏有個美女芭比睡在你媽媽身邊 Here is Belle Boobie asleep with Mama.
你好 瑪麗克萊爾 Hello, Marie-Claire.
你個淘氣娃娃 You naughty doll!
過來接受懲罰吧 Come here and I shall punish you.
哦 天哪 她還好嗎 Oh, my goodness. Is she all right?
別傻了 她是布做的 Don't be silly. She's made of cloth.
薩賓 我有點事想跟你說 Sabine, I have something to tell you.
多久了？ How long?
我們最近的關係不是很親近 We've not been close of late.
而且大部分的男人都有情人 在這樣的環境和氛圍下 And most men take mistresses in clue course in such circumstances.
這樣的環境？ Such circumstances?
她叫什麼？ What's her name?
黛安 Diane.
她住哪裏？ Where does she live?
貝裏 Berry.
哦 Oh.
不遠 Not too far.
馬車來了 There's the coach now.
我們之後再談 We'll talk again on this matter.
你什麼時候回來 When will you be back?
今晚 夫人 This evening, madame.
別叫我 "夫人" 菲利普 Do not "madame" me, Philippe.
瑪麗克萊爾 繫緊鞋帶 不然鞋子會掉的 Marie-Claire, tie your laces. You'll fall over them.
我不會 媽媽 在那等著 I can't, Mama. Wait there.
主人 看看這個 Master, look at this.
瑪麗克萊爾 Marie-Claire.
瓊 輪子 Jean, the wheel.
我告訴過主人了 I told the master.
他說能撐到貝裏的 He said it would do until Berry.
貝裏？ Berry?
瑪麗克萊爾 Marie-Claire!
我沒有親媽媽 I did not kiss Mama.
停下 停下 Stop! Stop!
不 不 No, no!
不 不 No! No!
薩賓 Sabine!
她是我最美的成果 She was the most beautiful thing I ever made,
我害死了她 and I killed her.
你難道想他們死嗎？你是這麼打算的嗎？ Did you intend them to die? Is that what you planned?
這是… 這是你丈夫的選擇 It was... It was your husband's choice.
是他帶走了你的孩子 He took away the child.
不 都是我的錯 No, it was my fault.
是我的錯 是我讓他帶她走的 It was my fault. I let him take her away.
那為什麼沒人怪你？ What if no one person is to blame?
責怪又有什麼用呢？ And what use is blame?
發生在你身上的已經夠多了 It is enough to have it happen to you.
你恢復得已經夠久了 It is enough to recover from it.
就像我們經常問自己的那樣 That is as much as we may ask of ourselves.
已經夠了 That is enough.
我該怎麼幫你好嗎？ What is it that would help you?
只要抱著我 If you held me.
你妻子怎麼樣了？ What will happen to your wife?
這跟我們以前已經不一樣了 This was not the way we started.
我們必須教會對方如何舉止 So we must have taught each other how to behave.
如果要責備的話她也好不到哪兒去 I am to blame for it as much as she.
她會自己過活的 She will live her own life.
她知道的 She knows that now.
那我們呢？ And us?
我們會塑造彼此 We will shape each other.
這不是正確的路 This isn't the right way.
沒錯的 就是這條 我們在柵欄後面 哦 Yes, it is. We're behind that fence. Oh!
天殺的 For heaven's sake!
這是租來的 I have to rent this.
浪費錢 Waste of money!
什麼意思？ What do you mean?
沒人會看到我們的 No one will see us.
這是來自天堂的音樂 The music comes from the heavens.
一路順風 薩賓 Fair winds, Sabine.
夫人 你真該慶幸有這麼多朋友 Madame is lucky in her friends.
他很滿意 He loves it.
我看起來很糟糕嗎？ Do I look very flushed?
不 你看起來美極了 No, you look beautiful.
你在奉承我嗎？ Are you flattering me?
這樣不行嗎？ Is that wrong?
再叫我一次夫人 Call me madame again.
