Lady Chatterley Page #2

Synopsis: Sir Clifford has returned from the Great War to his estate near Sheffield, paralyzed from the waist down. Lady Constance, his young wife, cares for him, but she's lifeless, enervated. Her physician prescribes the open air, and she finds a quiet retreat at the hut - the workplace - of Parkin, the estate's gamekeeper. The rhythms of nature awaken Connie - daffodils, pheasant chicks - and soon she and Parkin become lovers. She's now radiant. Parkin, too, opens up. Class distinctions and gender roles may be barriers to the affair becoming more. Connie's trip to France, with her father and sister, bring the lovers to a nuanced resolution.

I'm clearly at everyone's mercy.

I think this chair needs pushing.

Would you be so kind

as to push me home, Parkin?

I hope I didn't offend you at all.

No, no offence, sir.

Would you like me

to push the chair?

Please do.

Is that really necessary?

You should have let us push before.

Parkin, it only remains for me

to thank you.

I need another engine for this chair.

Go and have a beer

in the kitchen, won't you?

No, thank you, sir.

I'll be getting back.

I'll lunch in my room

If you don't mind.

As you wish, my dear.

Cards.

- 3.

- 2.

- You're here...

- Yes.

You're on time.

Yes, it was very easy.

Do you hear those noises?

It's the trees.

It sounds like they call each other,

each in their own language.

And what are they?

Pine trees.

You leave the light on?

At night, I do.

Then people can't tell

if I'm in or not.

What people?

I don't know. Anybody.

Do you want something to eat?

No, thank you.

But you eat if you're hungry.

I'm all right.

I'll just make some tea.

Do you want one?

Yes, please.

Will you love me?

Yes... I'll love you.

You must love me.

You should take that off.

Take yours off then.

Turn round.

Turn round

Before you put the candle out.

You're already awake?

Yer better go.

Is it sunny?

It will be.

How curious. It's tiny now.

Like a bud.

When did you say

Hilda was coming for you?

On Thursday.

Oh, yes, that's right, Thursday.

When will you be back?

A month later.

If you ever do come back.

- Why wouldn't I come back?

- Who knows?

The hand of God...

An earthquake...

Or a heart quake.

Talking of which,

is your sister looking

for a new husband too?

I mean, as well as yours.

Not that I know of.

The plan only concerns you?

Would you like to know

my conditions?

- Your conditions?

- As the legal father.

Or had that detail slipped your mind?

Go ahead.

The child will be English

on both sides.

On the father's side,

of at least decent stock.

I shall bear it in mind.

Right...

- I thought you'd got lost.

- Lost? No.

But I was getting ready to leave.

When do you go?

Tomorrow.

- Tomorrow?

- Yes.

My sister's picking me up.

We leave after lunch.

- Where are you going?

- To London, then Paris.

And near the Italian border,

near Menton.

Not where the war was?

No. Much further south.

By the seaside.

It's only for a month.

Won't you be glad to see me again?

You know...

it'll do me good to go away.

I haven't been away in so long.

Ay, it'll do you good.

What are you doing?

I want to run in the rain.

Don't you think you're wet enough?

No, not at all.

I have to take all this off.

Wait.

It's pretty.

You need a flower too.

Wait there.

It's too long.
