Very amusing, my dear Deschamps.
1:00:18
Thank you, Your Honor...
I mean... Your Majesty.
1:00:21
Don Francisco has already warned
me of your whimsical proclivities.
1:00:25
My whimsical proclivities are nothing much.
1:00:28
They can't compare with
my ludicrous ineptitudes.
1:00:32
So... this is the fabulous Duke Deschamps,
1:00:38
the man whose cold steel and warm heart...
1:00:41
have captivated the continent.
1:00:43
Too true. Too, too true.
1:00:47
Your prowess with the sword. A
thousand men killed. How do you do it?
1:00:51
It's nothing, just a flick of the
wrist. En garde, parry, thrust.
1:00:56
Two dozen roses to the widow.
1:00:59
And...
1:01:01
These stories, these hundreds of women...
1:01:06
waiting for your kisses
in every corner of France,
1:01:09
how do you do that? I've got a fast horse.
1:01:13
To proceed. I regret, my boy, that
Princess Maria is indisposed...
1:01:17
and cannot join this evening's celebration.
1:01:20
But I assure you she will be
present at her own wedding tomorrow.
1:01:23
That's fine. It's my first marriage.
I'd like to have all the trimmings.
1:01:34
The minuet in honor of
your country. Oh, thank you.
1:01:38
Countess.
1:01:40
In the absence of the princess,
1:01:42
my niece Countess Velasquez
will serve as your partner.
1:01:46
Do you object to the arrangement? Object?
1:01:51
It's the nicest arrangement
I've had all day. Thank you.
1:01:54
Shall we dance?
