Morning, Mr Kynaston.
Your picture's selling well.
:38:22
Anyone want to buy a rabbit?
:38:26
Mr Kynaston.
:38:36
Mr Betterton.
:38:38
I wish to discuss with you
:38:39
the role of Emilia.
:38:41
Bit over the top for that, aren't we, sunshine?
:38:43
Not me, sir. Not me.
:38:46
I come to speak
on behalf of Mrs Margaret Hughes.
:38:50
- Mr Kynaston.
- Aha! Mrs Hughes. Settling in, I see.
:38:53
That dress one of mine?
:38:55
I made it for myself.
:38:57
Oh, of course you did.
You're so good at the needle and pin.
:39:00
- Mr Kynaston, I must apologise...
- Oh, no, no.
:39:03
Please. Just a question, as you are
quite obviously going to audition today.
:39:07
Do you know the Five Positions
of Feminine Subjugation?
:39:11
What?
:39:13
The Five Positions
of Feminine Subjugation. No?
:39:16
Or perhaps you're more acquainted
with the Pose of Tragic Acceptance?
:39:20
Or the Demeanour of Awe and Terror?
:39:22
- Mr Kynaston...
- The Supplicant's Clasp?
:39:24
Or the Attitude of Prostrate...
:39:25
Funny, you've seen me perform them
a thousand times.
:39:28
- Mr Kynaston!
- Now, there's a feminine gesture.
:39:31
You seem to have managed
the Stamp of Girlish Petulance.
:39:37
I just wanted to act.
:39:38
- I just wanted to do what you do.
- But, madam,
:39:41
I have worked half my life to do what I do.
:39:45
14 boys crammed in a cellar.
:39:47
When I trained, I was not permitted to
wear a woman's dress for three years.
:39:51
I was not permitted to wear a wig for four,
not until I had proved
:39:54
that I had eliminated every masculine gesture,
every masculine intonation, from my very being.
:39:58
What teacher did you have?
What cellar was your home?
