**[00:13] ---**
The House of Lancaster still clings
to the throne in defiance of reason.
**[00:17] ---**
The same throne that they wrongfully
usurped from the House of York.
**[00:22] ---**
Indeed. My father was executed
for the crime of treason,
**[00:26] ---**
and our house plunged into dishonor.
**[00:29] ---**
Your Grace's blood has always
been more noble than the king's.
**[00:35] ---**
You have the stronger claim
to the throne, after all.
**[00:41] ---**
Warwick, should I become king?
**[00:44] ---**
I swear on this white rose
**[00:47] ---**
that I will put you on the throne,
Your Majesty, King Richard.
**[00:53] ---**
Father.
**[00:54] ---**
I am going to rouse
a tempest in this land.
**[00:58] ---**
I promise to return with
a golden circlet in hand.
**[01:03] ---**
A golden circlet?
**[01:05] ---**
Within that circlet lies paradise.
**[01:08] ---**
"Inspired by William Shakespeare"
Every joy and blessing
that the poets imagine.
**[01:13] ---**
I want to fight alongside you, Father.
**[01:16] ---**
I know. I hope you'll support me
on the battlefield when you're older.
**[01:20] ---**
Richard, my son, I gave you my name,
and I have high hopes for you.
**[01:26] ---**
Yes, Father!
**[01:27] ---**
My father is my light.
**[01:30] ---**
Only he will save me
from darkness and gloom.
**[01:42] ---**
"Original manga" "Aya Kanno"
**[01:48] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:50] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:53] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:59] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:27] ---**
Well, Richard, do you surrender?
**[02:30] ---**
That's Edward for you.
**[02:32] ---**
Let me try again, Edward!
**[02:33] ---**
That's enough, Lord Richard.
**[02:36] ---**
Your mother will scold you
if you're injured.
**[02:40] ---**
Richard, go home with Catesby.
**[02:43] ---**
Edward, let's race back to the house.
**[02:46] ---**
Challenge accepted, George.
**[02:48] ---**
See you later, Richard.
**[02:50] ---**
Edward!
**[02:54] ---**
Catesby, give me your horse!
**[02:57] ---**
Lord Richard, it's too dangerous alone.
**[03:00] ---**
Ride with me.
**[03:01] ---**
I can do it!
**[03:11] ---**
I want to help my father soon.
**[03:14] ---**
I'll fight alongside him to win the throne
back from the Lancastrians.
**[03:19] ---**
It will be my father's!
**[03:25] ---**
Mother!
**[03:27] ---**
Mother!
**[03:28] ---**
Witches live deep in the forest.
**[03:31] ---**
That's why you must never go there alone.
**[03:37] ---**
Mother?
**[03:45] ---**
Richard.
**[03:47] ---**
--Mother.
--Richard!
**[03:48] ---**
--Richard!
--Richard!
**[03:50] ---**
Richard!
**[03:51] ---**
Demon child! Did your mother abandon you?
**[03:53] ---**
Of course she did!
**[03:54] ---**
The day you were born,
a terrible storm laid trees low!
**[03:58] ---**
Owls screeched!
**[03:59] ---**
Crows croaked in the night!
**[04:00] ---**
To herald the coming
of an age of misfortune!
**[04:03] ---**
Your mother suffered
abnormal birthing pains!
**[04:06] ---**
And after all that, her child...
**[04:10] ---**
...was a blood-soaked demon
who defied the will of God!
**[04:15] ---**
Let me prophecy, Richard.
**[04:18] ---**
One day, a host of the elderly who have
lost their children, of widows, of orphans
**[04:25] ---**
will lament the untimely
deaths you have caused.
**[04:29] ---**
"Why was he ever born?" they will cry,
as they curse the day of your birth!
**[04:38] ---**
Help!
**[04:42] ---**
That was dangerous!
**[04:43] ---**
Please! I think he's hurt.
**[04:48] ---**
A white boar.
**[04:51] ---**
He might bite.
**[05:00] ---**
Thank you for saving him.
**[05:03] ---**
I just thought he'd make a good
addition to tonight's dinner.
**[05:06] ---**
Mother!
**[05:07] ---**
What have you been doing? You're so dirty.
**[05:10] ---**
George fell in the mud.
**[05:12] ---**
Edward pushed me!
**[05:14] ---**
Come along, my sweet little
princes. Change your clothes.
**[05:21] ---**
Are you hurt, Lord Richard?
**[05:25] ---**
Of course I'm not hurt.
**[05:27] ---**
My father taught me horsemanship.
**[05:32] ---**
When will I be able to
surpass my brothers?
**[05:41] ---**
When will my arms thicken?
**[05:46] ---**
When will I be able to be like my father?
**[05:51] ---**
I am a son of Richard Plantagenet,
Duke of York.
**[05:55] ---**
I must be able to do it.
**[06:01] ---**
His Grace has returned
from the battlefield.
**[06:06] ---**
Finally! Father returns in triumph.
**[06:09] ---**
Welcome home, Father!
**[06:11] ---**
Father!
**[06:22] ---**
Richard, I almost didn't recognize you.
**[06:25] ---**
I've improved my swordplay and learned to
ride full-grown horses like my brothers.
**[06:30] ---**
Is that so? My, how you've grown.
**[06:34] ---**
I swear to become a bold warrior
worthy of being a king's son.
**[06:41] ---**
Father?
**[06:42] ---**
I was victorious in my battle
against the Lancastrians,
**[06:48] ---**
but the king begged me to guard
the people for his lifetime.
**[06:53] ---**
Parliament strongly favored his petition,
**[06:56] ---**
and I was forced to settle
for the title of Protector.
**[07:00] ---**
I will not be king.
**[07:03] ---**
Not while King Henry lives.
**[07:10] ---**
Have they no shame?
**[07:13] ---**
Let's fight them again!
**[07:14] ---**
The crown belongs on your head, Father!
**[07:18] ---**
Richard.
**[07:19] ---**
We'll force them to acknowledge you!
**[07:22] ---**
But...
**[07:23] ---**
Father.
**[07:26] ---**
"Within that circlet lies paradise.
**[07:29] ---**
Every joy and blessing
that the poets imagine."
**[07:33] ---**
You told me that yourself, Father.
**[07:36] ---**
Let us fight.
**[07:37] ---**
We'll dye this white rose red
with Henry's blood!
**[07:42] ---**
Father!
**[07:47] ---**
Gentlemen,
**[07:48] ---**
I will cross swords with
the Lancastrians once more.
**[07:52] ---**
This storm will rage until a golden
crown gleams upon my brow!
**[07:58] ---**
Sharpen your swords and prepare for war!
**[08:05] ---**
I will become king.
**[08:08] ---**
I know.
**[08:09] ---**
I'll help you, Father.
**[08:12] ---**
No. You're still too young
to give your life.
**[08:15] ---**
But Father,
I've been training to fight for--
**[08:18] ---**
Preserve my name, Richard.
It's the name of a king.
**[08:27] ---**
Richard! Give up already.
**[08:30] ---**
We're still kids.
**[08:36] ---**
Damn it!
**[08:50] ---**
You can't do it, Richard.
**[08:52] ---**
Not with your body.
**[09:01] ---**
Who are you?!
**[09:04] ---**
I'm Joan of Arc.
**[09:07] ---**
I'm you.
**[09:10] ---**
Speak sense, you French witch!
**[09:13] ---**
How could you be me?!
**[09:15] ---**
I know everything there is
to know about you, Richard.
**[09:19] ---**
Even the secret you keep hidden.
**[09:23] ---**
Here. Take a look.
**[09:25] ---**
Your body...
**[09:28] ---**
...is neither a man's nor a woman's.
**[09:32] ---**
Lord Richard!
**[09:34] ---**
--I beg your--
--It's too late for that.
**[09:36] ---**
You and my parents are the only
people who know about this.
**[09:42] ---**
A demon child.
**[09:47] ---**
Lord Richard.
**[09:48] ---**
I've had enough!
**[09:50] ---**
You mustn't!
**[09:54] ---**
Your body is precious.
**[10:07] ---**
You ugly boar.
**[10:09] ---**
You're just like me.
**[10:30] ---**
Your Grace, the men are
fatigued from this long battle.
**[10:34] ---**
I suggest a withdrawal.
**[10:35] ---**
A king stands firm.
**[10:36] ---**
--But as things stand--
--I promised Richard that I would fight
until the bitter end!
**[10:38] ---**
--I promised Richard that I would fight
until the bitter end!
**[10:44] ---**
Has Father returned?
**[10:49] ---**
Are you York's son?
**[10:57] ---**
To a Lancastrian victory!
**[10:59] ---**
To our King Henry!
**[11:03] ---**
O Lord, please guard my husband and son.
**[11:08] ---**
Mother, I'm sure that Father
and Edward are fine.
**[11:12] ---**
Right, Richard?
**[11:13] ---**
Father...
**[11:14] ---**
You demon! This only happened because you
beguiled him with your honeyed words!
**[11:20] ---**
--Mother?
--When you spoke to him...
**[11:24] ---**
...your face was the very picture
of a devil!
**[11:27] ---**
You are a demon child!
**[11:30] ---**
--What's wrong, Mother?
--You just don't know, George.
**[11:33] ---**
A demon dwells within his body!
**[11:47] ---**
Demon child!
**[11:49] ---**
O Lord,
**[11:51] ---**
preserve my husband and son
from the devil's clutches.
**[11:58] ---**
Father!
**[12:03] ---**
Father, are you safe?
**[12:16] ---**
Where am I?
**[12:33] ---**
Who's there? What are you doing?
**[12:47] ---**
I'm making a sundial.
**[12:52] ---**
Here, I'll show you.
**[12:57] ---**
You watch each minute pass
**[12:59] ---**
and ponder how many minutes
and years make up a person's life.
**[13:05] ---**
You're an odd man.
**[13:07] ---**
All shepherds do this.
**[13:09] ---**
Are you a shepherd?
**[13:13] ---**
Me?
**[13:14] ---**
Yes!
**[13:18] ---**
You count the time and then divide it up.
**[13:20] ---**
How many hours spent herding flocks?
**[13:22] ---**
Days until the ewes get with child?
Weeks until they give birth?
**[13:26] ---**
Years until you shear the lambs?
**[13:29] ---**
What a delightful life it must be.
**[13:33] ---**
Shepherds are lucky. You have it easy.
**[13:37] ---**
I suppose so.
**[13:38] ---**
This world is nothing
but tragedy and desire.
**[13:43] ---**
Shepherds are far happier than kings.
**[13:46] ---**
That can't be!
**[13:48] ---**
Paradise lies within that royal crown!
**[13:53] ---**
Meeting you here delights
me more than any crown.
**[13:59] ---**
Come. Join me.
**[14:10] ---**
Hey!
**[14:13] ---**
I have nightmares under
a canopy, but never here.
**[14:19] ---**
Do you ever have nightmares?
**[14:23] ---**
What kind of nightmares?
**[14:26] ---**
I often dream of my mother abandoning me.
**[14:32] ---**
But in the end, God always reaches
down a hand of light to me.
**[14:44] ---**
Light...
**[14:45] ---**
"Why was he ever born?" they will cry,
as they curse the day of your birth!
**[14:58] ---**
Father.
**[15:00] ---**
My light isn't God.
**[15:05] ---**
I'm sure that Death would come
for you if you went to sleep here.
**[15:12] ---**
That might not be so bad,
if my death could save someone.
**[15:17] ---**
What difference would the
death of one shepherd make?
**[15:22] ---**
That's true.
**[15:26] ---**
I like you!
**[15:28] ---**
You're right. I'm just a shepherd.
**[15:31] ---**
In the end, God will call me to
His side just like everyone else.
**[15:38] ---**
I don't want to die.
**[15:41] ---**
I'm sure I couldn't go to heaven if I did.
**[15:44] ---**
I mean, I'm...
**[15:47] ---**
...a demon child.
**[15:55] ---**
That's why I can't get
my mother to love me.
**[16:05] ---**
I'll pray for you.
Would you tell me your name?
**[16:11] ---**
Richard.
**[16:16] ---**
My name is Henry.
**[16:18] ---**
Richard, would you be my friend?
**[16:24] ---**
Then, let's stay here forever.
**[16:28] ---**
I'm sure you won't freeze.
**[16:32] ---**
Not if you hold each other close.
**[16:35] ---**
Are you going back to that cell again?
**[16:37] ---**
Poor little Richard.
**[16:40] ---**
You know that no one will love you.
**[16:43] ---**
My father will shine
his light into any prison.
**[16:49] ---**
My duty is to guard
my mother until he does!
**[16:59] ---**
"Henry."
**[17:01] ---**
I hate to even speak that name.
**[17:04] ---**
Hey! Wake up!
**[17:07] ---**
I've been waiting for you, Richard.
**[17:09] ---**
You look great in those shackles.
**[17:11] ---**
Just like a bear before
the hounds torment it to death.
**[17:14] ---**
I guess that makes you a dog, then.
**[17:17] ---**
You can act brave and bite,
**[17:19] ---**
but one swipe of a forepaw will send you
off with your tail between your legs.
**[17:22] ---**
Don't get cocky, you filthy demon.
**[17:26] ---**
Your body holds a secret.
**[17:28] ---**
Isn't that what your mother told you?
**[17:31] ---**
The jailer told me.
**[17:33] ---**
Have you got a devil's tail?
**[17:35] ---**
Or are you hiding a beast's
body under your clothes?
**[17:40] ---**
Let's find out.
**[17:54] ---**
Stop spouting pointless insults
and learn from your father's piety.
**[17:59] ---**
You'll be dining in heaven tonight.
**[18:02] ---**
Hey. Stop it.
**[18:03] ---**
You ugly demon.
**[18:05] ---**
Your brutality is proof of what you are!
**[18:07] ---**
Stop it!
**[18:20] ---**
He's... a woman?
**[18:25] ---**
Hurry! The Yorkists are coming!
**[18:26] ---**
You there! What are you doing?!
**[18:31] ---**
Richard!
**[18:32] ---**
Edward!
**[18:34] ---**
Edward, Mother is...
**[18:35] ---**
Don't worry. We just saved them both.
**[18:38] ---**
Our forces have already occupied
London and captured Henry.
**[18:42] ---**
We've won!
**[18:45] ---**
Henry of Lancaster...
**[18:49] ---**
...offer His Grace the throne.
**[18:52] ---**
Henry, the House of York
will inherit the throne.
**[18:56] ---**
There is no need to stain the ground
of England with any more blood.
**[19:03] ---**
Long live His Grace, the Duke of York!
**[19:05] ---**
Edward, you've served your father well.
**[19:09] ---**
I'm proud of you.
**[19:12] ---**
You were truly magnificent.
**[19:14] ---**
No heir could be more worthy.
**[19:18] ---**
I'm not the best.
**[19:20] ---**
With this, your reign
has practically begun.
**[19:23] ---**
No, I'm not king yet.
**[19:25] ---**
As long as Henry lives--
**[19:27] ---**
In that case, Father,
**[19:30] ---**
you should execute Henry at once.
**[19:33] ---**
Wait, Richard. Henry still has his uses.
**[19:37] ---**
We should proceed with caution until
parliament recognizes His Grace's claim.
**[19:42] ---**
I suggest we enjoy this banquet first.
**[19:45] ---**
My daughters are anxious
to dance with the princes.
**[19:50] ---**
The girl from the woods.
**[19:53] ---**
I-I never said anything
about wanting to dance.
**[19:58] ---**
I'll excuse myself.
**[20:00] ---**
Where are you going?!
**[20:04] ---**
I'm a poor dancer.
**[20:06] ---**
Well... I actually can't dance either.
**[20:10] ---**
I'd rather spend my time learning
swordsmanship than dancing.
**[20:13] ---**
I like swordplay better too!
**[20:14] ---**
You do?!
**[20:18] ---**
You're an odd girl.
**[20:20] ---**
Y-You're quite strange yourself.
**[20:23] ---**
You're... different from
everyone else, somehow.
**[20:31] ---**
Don't get the wrong idea, Richard.
**[20:33] ---**
You're not like anyone else.
**[20:40] ---**
You're "different"!
**[20:44] ---**
You're all alone!
**[20:50] ---**
Once you go to war, even Edward
may not be a match for you, Richard.
**[20:55] ---**
Father.
**[20:57] ---**
I heard your voice on the battlefield--
telling me that a king keeps fighting.
**[21:03] ---**
I felt a special bond between us then,
**[21:08] ---**
Richard.
**[21:11] ---**
As your father, I swear to never
retreat from battle again.
**[21:17] ---**
I swear too!
**[21:19] ---**
I swear that I'll take
Henry's head myself!
**[21:25] ---**
I'm not a king anymore.
**[21:29] ---**
I'm just a shepherd.
**[21:32] ---**
I long to see you,
**[21:34] ---**
Richard.
**[21:42] ---**
Father, if it would help to make you king,
**[21:47] ---**
I would even slay God.

**[00:03] ---**
Margaret, the Lancastrian queen, has
raised troops and conquered the north.
**[00:09] ---**
I will march north and settle
matters with her myself.
**[00:16] ---**
Edward, take charge of the Welsh border.
**[00:19] ---**
Yes, Father!
**[00:21] ---**
Earl of Warwick, defend London for me.
**[00:24] ---**
Yes, Majesty.
**[00:27] ---**
Father!
**[00:28] ---**
Take me with you! I won't be a burden!
**[00:37] ---**
Richard.
**[00:39] ---**
Father.
**[00:40] ---**
My love!
**[00:42] ---**
Please, leave me Richard!
**[00:45] ---**
Don't take my little Richard from me!
**[00:50] ---**
I know he will go off to war someday,
**[00:53] ---**
but he is still too delicate now.
He needs his mother.
**[00:58] ---**
Please! Please have pity on
a foolish woman's whim!
**[01:06] ---**
Richard, I won't be gone long.
**[01:10] ---**
Guard your mother until I return.
**[01:18] ---**
Father.
**[01:23] ---**
I'll never let you go to him.
**[01:27] ---**
Your existence will be the death of him.
**[01:30] ---**
Your words become curses
that bring others to ruin.
**[01:34] ---**
You filthy demon child!
**[01:37] ---**
You cannot live without
devouring the souls of others!
**[01:40] ---**
O Lord, I will guard them
all from this devil.
**[01:45] ---**
That shall be my penance
for giving birth to him!
**[01:56] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:58] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[02:01] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[02:07] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:49] ---**
The Lancastrian stronghold is under our
noses! Keep your swords in hand!
**[03:54] ---**
Fortune favors us!
**[04:05] ---**
This can't be all of Margaret's forces.
**[04:08] ---**
They must have run in fear of our army.
**[04:12] ---**
Something's not right.
How can our enemy number so few?
**[04:26] ---**
It's almost Christmas, huh?
**[04:29] ---**
I guess a big family celebration
is out of the question, considering.
**[04:35] ---**
Say, Mother, where has Richard gone?
**[04:41] ---**
I sent him to a safe place.
**[04:44] ---**
To the Tower.
**[04:47] ---**
Are there prisoners in the Tower?
Apart from me, I mean.
**[04:50] ---**
Prisoners? Goodness, no!
There are only noble personages here.
**[04:55] ---**
Noble prisoners, then.
**[04:59] ---**
Of course.
**[05:00] ---**
Henry must be here.
**[05:02] ---**
If I weren't locked up,
I'd kill him at once
**[05:06] ---**
and race to my father's side
with his head!
**[05:09] ---**
York was quite a disappointment.
**[05:12] ---**
Is this all he amounts to
without Warwick and Edward?
**[05:16] ---**
Your Majesty! We will secure your escape!
**[05:18] ---**
What king would sacrifice his men
to save only his own skin?
**[05:22] ---**
But Your Majesty!
**[05:24] ---**
I swore an oath to stand my ground.
It's a crown or an honorable death for me!
**[05:38] ---**
Lancaster!
**[05:46] ---**
A king...
**[05:48] ---**
A king stands firm! He never retreats!
**[05:54] ---**
I swore it by my name!
**[06:00] ---**
I swore it to you, Richard!
**[06:08] ---**
Richard, everyone who
passes under this tree
**[06:12] ---**
must kiss whoever is
near them at the time.
**[06:16] ---**
Is that true?
**[06:18] ---**
So, even Mother won't
get mad if I kiss her?
**[06:20] ---**
Of course she won't!
**[06:22] ---**
But the rule is that you must
do it at least 12 times,
**[06:25] ---**
so kiss me first.
**[06:27] ---**
Father!
**[06:30] ---**
Father!
**[06:38] ---**
Richard?
**[06:40] ---**
Oh, good. You're still alive.
**[06:44] ---**
Hurry up and kill me.
I have only moments of life left.
**[06:49] ---**
No, Your Majesty.
**[06:50] ---**
I kept you alive to disgrace you.
**[06:55] ---**
Now, put this on. I worked hard
to weave it specially for you.
**[06:59] ---**
Look, Your Majesty.
It's the "crown" you so longed for.
**[07:10] ---**
Dear me.
**[07:12] ---**
How it becomes you!
**[07:14] ---**
Come, gentlemen! Salute him!
**[07:19] ---**
This isn't the end.
**[07:21] ---**
You must entertain me more before you die,
**[07:26] ---**
York.
**[07:30] ---**
Go on! Keep struggling!
Lose your composure!
**[07:32] ---**
My wrath won't be sated until
the world sees your disgrace!
**[07:37] ---**
Even if I die, wings of vengeance
**[07:41] ---**
will rise again from my ashes.
**[07:45] ---**
So, that hope is the source
of your noble bearing.
**[07:49] ---**
I've heard the stories.
**[07:51] ---**
Edward the womanizer.
George the simpleton.
**[07:55] ---**
And then there's your youngest.
**[07:58] ---**
I hear you lavish your affections
on that little boy most of all.
**[08:03] ---**
What are you scheming?
**[08:04] ---**
"Scheming"? Perish the thought.
**[08:07] ---**
I merely wanted you to have this
in your last moments, Your Majesty.
**[08:13] ---**
Here you are.
**[08:15] ---**
Take a good look, York.
**[08:17] ---**
I wrung the blood that stains this cloth
from your beloved youngest son's heart.
**[08:24] ---**
Richard!
**[08:29] ---**
Go on. Wipe your tears with it.
**[08:54] ---**
Yes! That's the look I wanted!
**[08:55] ---**
I wanted to see your handsome
face twisted in despair!
**[08:59] ---**
Poor, pitiful York!
**[09:02] ---**
All right, I've had my fun.
**[09:07] ---**
Now, despair and die.
**[09:13] ---**
Your Lordship, we can't hold out here!
**[09:16] ---**
Send the rearguard south!
I'll lead the main force!
**[09:19] ---**
Hold London at any cost!
**[09:22] ---**
Prince Edward! It appears that they've
already moved His Majesty, King Henry.
**[09:32] ---**
My queen,
**[09:33] ---**
I recaptured King Henry in transit
and took him under my protection.
**[09:39] ---**
Well done.
**[09:40] ---**
Take all that your hearts desire!
**[09:43] ---**
We will continue our advance.
**[09:46] ---**
Next time, I'll wipe York's head
with his son's *real* blood.
**[10:01] ---**
Father.
**[10:08] ---**
Where am I?! What are you doing here?!
**[10:11] ---**
This is a Lancastrian subject's house,
**[10:14] ---**
and you're a prisoner in my custody.
**[10:16] ---**
We'll stay here temporarily until
I can join my mother's army.
**[10:20] ---**
Margaret's army? You mean
the Lancastrians are advancing?
**[10:25] ---**
You don't know anything?
**[10:27] ---**
Not even that your father is--
**[10:31] ---**
What about my father?!
Did something happen to him?!
**[10:34] ---**
Your father is in the city of York.
It's too far to go alone.
**[10:39] ---**
I wouldn't mind taking you there,
**[10:42] ---**
if you'll agree to stay with me.
**[10:44] ---**
What should I stay with
a Lancastrian for?!
**[10:47] ---**
If I go to see my father, I'll do it
with my mother and brother.
**[10:52] ---**
I hear that your mother already took
your brother and fled, Richard.
**[10:57] ---**
They abandoned you.
**[11:05] ---**
Mother?
**[11:12] ---**
It wouldn't be the first time
I was abandoned.
**[11:20] ---**
Hang on! Our troops will
capture this area soon!
**[11:24] ---**
Why stop me?
**[11:25] ---**
I've been abandoned; that makes
me worthless as a hostage.
**[11:29] ---**
Well...
**[11:31] ---**
I don't know why either,
**[11:33] ---**
b-but I think it's because you're a woman!
**[11:37] ---**
I'm not a woman.
**[11:39] ---**
My father called me his son.
**[11:42] ---**
He named me "Richard."
**[11:54] ---**
Damn it. Which way should I go?
**[11:57] ---**
I have to reach Father soon!
**[11:59] ---**
Hey.
**[12:01] ---**
What are you doing there?
**[12:03] ---**
We Lancastrians have occupied this town.
**[12:11] ---**
Most of the townsfolk have fled.
**[12:15] ---**
Think. Think, Richard.
**[12:18] ---**
It's a long way to York.
**[12:20] ---**
You need a horse.
**[12:21] ---**
If the Lancastrians have taken the town,
then getting out won't be easy.
**[12:26] ---**
You don't know anything?
**[12:28] ---**
Not even that your father is--
**[12:31] ---**
I have to reach Father soon!
**[12:35] ---**
Are you really from this town?
**[12:40] ---**
Father!
**[12:42] ---**
I need to reach you soon!
**[12:58] ---**
Come off already, damn it!
**[13:00] ---**
Hurry up and come off!
**[13:22] ---**
A wife and children.
**[13:32] ---**
He's these children's father...
**[13:36] ---**
...and I killed him.
**[14:00] ---**
Father!
**[14:05] ---**
Who's that over there?
**[14:10] ---**
O Lord! Richard!
**[14:13] ---**
Is it really you?
**[14:20] ---**
I'm so glad.
**[14:22] ---**
I thought I'd never see you again.
**[14:24] ---**
Why?
**[14:26] ---**
Why did you have to turn up
at a time like this?!
**[14:30] ---**
What have you been doing all this time?
What brings you here?
**[14:34] ---**
Stay back!
**[14:36] ---**
Stay back!
**[14:37] ---**
All right.
**[14:39] ---**
In that case, Richard, you come to me.
**[14:42] ---**
I've been longing to see you.
**[14:45] ---**
Who asked you?
**[14:48] ---**
I made up my mind to go it alone.
**[14:52] ---**
All alone.
**[14:53] ---**
I have to go alone, and yet...!
**[14:56] ---**
Wait! Richard!
**[14:59] ---**
Let go of me! I don't have time for your--
**[15:01] ---**
I want to go with you!
**[15:03] ---**
Won't you take me along?!
**[15:05] ---**
You?
**[15:08] ---**
What... What do you want
to come with me for?
**[15:11] ---**
I want to be with you.
**[15:13] ---**
When I'm with you,
I feel as though I can be myself.
**[15:17] ---**
That's why I want to go back
to that forest with you.
**[15:21] ---**
Then, I want to spend every day tending
sheep and obeying the church bells.
**[15:28] ---**
I want to live in peace and quiet.
**[15:31] ---**
Wouldn't a life like that spare
you from getting hurt like this?
**[15:36] ---**
Hurt?
**[15:40] ---**
I'm not hurt at all.
**[15:42] ---**
This is...
**[15:44] ---**
...someone else's blood.
**[15:48] ---**
I'm not like you.
**[15:50] ---**
If you're not hurt,
**[15:53] ---**
then why are you crying?
**[15:55] ---**
I...
**[15:57] ---**
I don't need anyone.
**[16:01] ---**
Richard!
**[16:03] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[16:06] ---**
I've been looking for you.
**[16:08] ---**
Let us return to our London together.
**[16:14] ---**
My father is waiting for me.
**[16:19] ---**
He's waiting for me.
**[16:23] ---**
So, our unit is the only one left.
**[16:26] ---**
Fighting on won't do us much good
now that the main force is gone.
**[16:29] ---**
It's too soon to give up!
**[16:31] ---**
Edward's forces are coming to our aid!
**[16:34] ---**
Whatever happens,
we must hold out until he arrives!
**[16:46] ---**
I won't let His Majesty's dream--
*my* dream--come to an end yet!
**[16:54] ---**
Father.
**[17:03] ---**
Which road will take me to York?
**[17:06] ---**
It's that way, direction-wise.
**[17:09] ---**
Hey.
**[17:10] ---**
Are you all right? You don't look well,
and York's a long way off.
**[17:14] ---**
I don't have time to rest.
**[17:17] ---**
Is that so?
**[17:18] ---**
Watch out for robbers, then.
**[17:24] ---**
Behold, Your Majesty.
**[17:27] ---**
Could anything be more delightful?
**[17:30] ---**
It's a shame that Warwick's
corpse is lacking,
**[17:33] ---**
but York, who tried to
steal your crown, is--
**[17:35] ---**
I don't want to hear about that!
**[17:37] ---**
Oh, how horrible!
**[17:39] ---**
I made a covenant with the Duke of York,
**[17:42] ---**
and now it's come to this!
**[17:47] ---**
That's true, isn't it, Your Majesty?
**[17:50] ---**
You ceded the throne to York and his sons.
**[17:55] ---**
Tell me, Your Majesty:
**[17:57] ---**
What outrage cost your son his place
in the line of succession?
**[18:02] ---**
Tell him in person.
**[18:05] ---**
Mother!
**[18:06] ---**
Father would never disinherit me.
**[18:09] ---**
Everyone knows that the
king's son will be the next king!
**[18:13] ---**
Of course.
**[18:14] ---**
Even the lowliest beast
cares for its young.
**[18:18] ---**
That's why the sight of
enemies frightens them.
**[18:21] ---**
Now, look! Look, Henry!
**[18:23] ---**
Look at the soldiers you killed!
At the son you abandoned!
**[18:27] ---**
It's not my fault! I couldn't help it!
**[18:30] ---**
I couldn't help it!
**[18:32] ---**
I just didn't want anyone to die!
**[18:36] ---**
Forgive me! Forgive me!
**[18:40] ---**
What a cowardly, contemptible,
shameless king.
**[18:44] ---**
I wish that I had never become your wife.
**[18:48] ---**
Oh, my darling William.
**[18:52] ---**
You no longer have a body to embrace,
**[18:54] ---**
and you took my heart with you to heaven.
**[18:58] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[19:00] ---**
Forgive me, York.
**[19:03] ---**
Forgive me. Forgive me.
**[19:06] ---**
Damn. I drove the horse too hard.
**[19:18] ---**
I hate forests at night.
**[19:47] ---**
The Lancastrians must have
ransacked this house.
**[19:53] ---**
Father, I hope that you
have hot food to eat.
**[20:01] ---**
Is someone there?
**[20:08] ---**
A deserter from the
Lancastrian army, are you?
**[20:12] ---**
He'll make a perfect mark.
Hurry up and strip him down.
**[20:16] ---**
Don't try anything, kid!
**[20:18] ---**
You sons of bitches did
a number on our village!
**[20:22] ---**
Hey, this brat's a woman.
**[20:25] ---**
We're in luck.
**[20:26] ---**
No.
**[20:27] ---**
I'm not a woman!
**[20:29] ---**
Stop! Stop!
**[20:31] ---**
Father!
**[20:33] ---**
What is this brat?
**[20:41] ---**
I'm not a woman.
**[20:44] ---**
Father, save me!
**[20:46] ---**
Demon child! Demon child!
**[20:49] ---**
You're wrong!
**[20:50] ---**
I'm not a demon child!
**[20:52] ---**
I'm my father's son!
**[20:55] ---**
Only my father will save me
from the darkness.
**[21:23] ---**
Father!
**[21:40] ---**
Father.
**[21:44] ---**
My light.

**[00:08] ---**
Oh, Warwick!
**[00:11] ---**
My father is...
**[00:13] ---**
His dukedom may live on in me,
**[00:16] ---**
but he is no longer with us!
**[00:19] ---**
Edward.
**[00:20] ---**
If you are his son,
then do not stop at a dukedom.
**[00:24] ---**
Call yourself a king.
**[00:26] ---**
Claim the crown, or you are
no child of Richard Plantagenet!
**[00:31] ---**
Warwick.
**[00:33] ---**
My troops will acclaim
you King of England.
**[00:38] ---**
London has barred its gates
against the Lancastrians.
**[00:41] ---**
That will force them to withdraw for now.
**[00:45] ---**
We'll end this war then.
**[00:48] ---**
Gentlemen, this next battle
will shape our future.
**[00:52] ---**
All those who love England, follow me!
**[00:56] ---**
My father called you
the "savior of his soul."
**[01:01] ---**
I feel as he did, Warwick.
**[01:03] ---**
Let us vow to chain our souls together.
**[01:07] ---**
When you fall, so shall I!
**[01:11] ---**
I have no need of tears.
**[01:14] ---**
Our mourning clothes are steel chains.
**[01:17] ---**
We'll bring our swords of vengeance
down on Lancastrian helms!
**[01:21] ---**
O Lord, grant us strength!
**[01:24] ---**
No matter how much I weep,
**[01:27] ---**
merely breathing is enough
to stoke the fires of my rage
**[01:31] ---**
and burn my body to ashes.
**[01:39] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:41] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:44] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:50] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:45] ---**
Warwick.
**[03:49] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[03:50] ---**
I swore to my beloved that I would
be with her if I returned alive.
**[03:57] ---**
You should not say such things,
even in jest.
**[04:01] ---**
I never jest.
**[04:05] ---**
And right now, I'm "with" you, Warwick.
**[04:14] ---**
Where am I?
**[04:19] ---**
What am I doing?
**[04:24] ---**
Everywhere I look is pitch dark.
**[04:28] ---**
Fire!
**[04:35] ---**
I can no longer...
**[04:37] ---**
see any color but the red of blood.
**[04:43] ---**
How many of them can we
kill before they close with us?
**[04:48] ---**
The will of heaven will decide the rest.
**[04:59] ---**
What do I desire?
**[05:02] ---**
Tears cannot quench the fires
that consume me.
**[05:18] ---**
Go! Crush the Yorkists in a single charge!
**[05:24] ---**
Leave this to me! Fall back and--
**[05:26] ---**
I swore to stand with you, Warwick!
**[05:28] ---**
In heaven's name!
**[05:31] ---**
Look, Warwick. Look at the sun.
**[05:53] ---**
Blood! It's blood that I need!
**[05:55] ---**
More! More! More!
**[05:58] ---**
I want more blood!
**[06:02] ---**
Enemy reinforcements?!
**[06:04] ---**
Yes, they number in the thousands.
**[06:07] ---**
Our men's morale will inevitably suffer.
**[06:09] ---**
Might I suggest we retreat
while we still can?
**[06:19] ---**
That sun is a good omen!
**[06:21] ---**
Heaven sides with us!
**[06:23] ---**
Now is the time to avenge my father!
**[06:26] ---**
The world is dark.
**[06:28] ---**
I have been forever robbed of light.
**[06:32] ---**
In the dark, I can see
only the color of blood.
**[06:36] ---**
So, I will cover the world...
**[06:38] ---**
In blood! Blood! Blood!
**[06:40] ---**
Blood!
**[06:45] ---**
I'll color it with blood!
**[07:00] ---**
Are you a Lancastrian?
**[07:05] ---**
Help me. I can't move.
**[07:09] ---**
Please.
**[07:11] ---**
My family's waiting for me.
**[07:16] ---**
I can't see.
**[07:17] ---**
I don't recognize your face.
**[07:22] ---**
Will you color it for me?
**[07:24] ---**
Color the world?
**[07:26] ---**
I'm sure that I'll be able to see then.
**[07:51] ---**
Yes. Even without light,
**[07:55] ---**
all that my eyes see--the whole
world--will be in color.
**[08:01] ---**
It won't be dark anymore.
**[08:17] ---**
Hey, this one's breathing.
**[08:19] ---**
So kill him.
**[08:21] ---**
I know, but his rose is so bloody
I can't tell if it's white or--
**[08:25] ---**
Wait a moment.
**[08:27] ---**
I know him.
**[08:34] ---**
I'm amazed you recognized me.
**[08:38] ---**
I've known you ever since you were born.
**[08:41] ---**
Simply to be at your side.
**[08:44] ---**
That is the role assigned to me in life.
**[08:49] ---**
You needn't feel bound by loyalty.
**[08:52] ---**
My father is no longer of this world.
**[08:57] ---**
And so, I resigned my post
and went in search of you.
**[09:01] ---**
In order to deliver you
into your mother's arms.
**[09:06] ---**
Officially, you fled along with your
lady mother and Lord George.
**[09:11] ---**
That is as it must be.
**[09:13] ---**
Your father would want it that way.
**[09:21] ---**
Yes, you're right.
**[09:24] ---**
I'm sure that's what Father would want.
**[09:29] ---**
I am the shadow,
**[09:30] ---**
the darkness behind the light.
**[09:33] ---**
As your king, I now declare to you:
**[09:36] ---**
We have won! Victory is ours!
**[09:39] ---**
Long live King Edward!
**[09:44] ---**
But that's fine.
**[09:47] ---**
I'll go on walking alone,
even in the dark.
**[09:52] ---**
I've found a way to do it.
**[10:24] ---**
Are you *still* dressing, Richard?!
**[10:28] ---**
Pardon me, George.
**[10:32] ---**
Richard, you're always nearly late because
you won't let servants help you.
**[10:37] ---**
It was never a problem with Catesby.
**[10:42] ---**
That was two years ago.
He no longer serves the House of York.
**[10:48] ---**
Oh, yeah. He's with
Lord Hastings now, isn't he?
**[10:56] ---**
King Edward is here!
**[10:58] ---**
His Majesty's beauty always astounds me.
**[11:01] ---**
I know! You'd think he
was born to be king.
**[11:06] ---**
And that's the "Kingmaker,"
the Earl of Warwick.
**[11:09] ---**
The Yorkists would never have
emerged victorious without him.
**[11:13] ---**
Lord George and Lord Richard
have grown handsome as well.
**[11:17] ---**
But Lord Richard rather frightens me.
**[11:20] ---**
He seems so unapproachable.
**[11:22] ---**
Now that the crown of victory is ours,
**[11:25] ---**
battle-scarred armor has
been reduced to decoration.
**[11:29] ---**
George! Richard!
**[11:32] ---**
Richard, I'm told that you've barred
servants from your chambers.
**[11:36] ---**
You are the Duke of Gloucester now.
**[11:39] ---**
You cannot rule without
your people's trust.
**[11:43] ---**
Forgive me.
**[11:44] ---**
I am ashamed to expose
my frail body to their sight.
**[11:48] ---**
You are slender, and your skin
is as smooth as a maiden's.
**[11:54] ---**
But you needn't be ashamed.
**[11:56] ---**
Such trifles don't determine
a man's worth.
**[11:59] ---**
What does determine it, then?
**[12:04] ---**
Women.
**[12:05] ---**
My brothers, do any of
these strike your fancies?
**[12:09] ---**
They are all lovely ladies.
**[12:12] ---**
Wh-Why don't you court them, then?
**[12:15] ---**
I'm already promised to a lady in France.
**[12:19] ---**
Warwick is formally pursuing
the engagement.
**[12:24] ---**
My brothers, your king commands you!
**[12:28] ---**
Choose partners for today from
among these maidens here!
**[12:32] ---**
What should we do, Richard?
I know you hate this sort of thing.
**[12:36] ---**
It's just for this party.
**[12:38] ---**
His Majesty will be satisfied
once we choose.
**[12:42] ---**
You know, you've changed a little.
**[12:45] ---**
Ever since Father died.
**[12:47] ---**
I'm not a child anymore.
**[12:50] ---**
Come on. Let's put ourselves
in the running.
**[12:53] ---**
I-I'll stay out of it.
**[12:55] ---**
I'm not good with men.
**[12:58] ---**
Oh, honestly, Anne.
**[13:00] ---**
I know that you can't
stop thinking about--
**[13:03] ---**
I said I don't want to!
**[13:05] ---**
You can join in on your own!
**[13:09] ---**
Oh, my.
**[13:12] ---**
Anne Neville.
**[13:14] ---**
Lord Richard!
**[13:16] ---**
Um, I-I'm...
**[13:18] ---**
I'm sorry about before!
**[13:20] ---**
I wanted to apologize.
**[13:22] ---**
I realized that I might have said
something awful to you.
**[13:25] ---**
I really didn't mean to.
**[13:28] ---**
I hoped that you and I could be, um...
**[13:34] ---**
...friends.
**[13:39] ---**
Anne, give me your hand.
**[13:45] ---**
Where did that come from?!
**[13:47] ---**
If Lord Richard is with my sister,
then you must be my partner!
**[14:03] ---**
I was right, Warwick.
**[14:06] ---**
Your daughters have grown quite beautiful.
**[14:10] ---**
I envy my brothers.
**[14:12] ---**
I trust that my French lady
is quite the beauty as well.
**[14:17] ---**
Leave everything to me.
**[14:20] ---**
I plan to do nothing
without your approval.
**[14:24] ---**
The two of us won this throne together.
**[14:28] ---**
Wait!
**[14:30] ---**
Your Royal Majesty, I beg of you.
**[14:34] ---**
This is a celebration.
**[14:36] ---**
I will hear business during--
**[14:37] ---**
I have made many requests
these past two years,
**[14:40] ---**
yet I was never granted an audience.
**[14:44] ---**
I beg Your Majesty to return
my late husband's lands,
**[14:48] ---**
which were confiscated in the war.
**[14:50] ---**
Confiscated?
**[14:52] ---**
That would make your late husband
a Lancastrian, I presume.
**[14:56] ---**
Interesting. You're a courageous woman.
**[15:00] ---**
What's your name?
**[15:01] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[15:05] ---**
I am called Elizabeth Woodville.
**[15:13] ---**
Very well. I will hear your petition.
**[15:16] ---**
But not during a banquet. Leave us.
**[15:26] ---**
Your Majesty, as I was saying about your
engagement to the French lady...
**[15:33] ---**
Elizabeth Woodville.
**[15:37] ---**
Where have I...?
**[15:39] ---**
Show yourself.
**[15:41] ---**
I made you tremble with fear as a child,
**[15:44] ---**
but you're used to me now.
**[15:47] ---**
What's so funny?
**[15:49] ---**
Have you fallen in love?
**[15:52] ---**
With the beautiful Elizabeth?
**[15:54] ---**
Nonsense.
**[15:55] ---**
But she's in your thoughts.
**[15:57] ---**
Charming little Anne.
**[15:59] ---**
I don't fall in love.
**[16:01] ---**
You could never get her
to love you back, anyway.
**[16:05] ---**
Not with your body.
**[16:07] ---**
Enough!
**[16:08] ---**
I'm joking.
**[16:10] ---**
After all, your affections lie elsewhere.
**[16:14] ---**
Richard, you are neither
a man nor a woman,
**[16:18] ---**
but you are also both a man *and* a woman.
**[16:26] ---**
I won't love anyone.
**[16:30] ---**
Anyone at all.
**[16:32] ---**
Queen Margaret! King Henry's spirit
has at last returned to him!
**[16:40] ---**
Where... Where am I?
**[16:44] ---**
In Scotland.
**[16:46] ---**
Those abominable Yorkists
seized the throne,
**[16:49] ---**
and forced us, the rightful royal family,
into exile in a foreign land.
**[16:55] ---**
The war is over.
**[16:58] ---**
What a deplorable state of affairs!
**[17:02] ---**
I'm no longer king.
**[17:06] ---**
I'm free. Free!
**[17:10] ---**
What's gotten into you, Edward?
**[17:13] ---**
Why a hunting trip?
**[17:15] ---**
It's nice to hunt without
a crowd once in a while.
**[17:18] ---**
Look, my brothers.
**[17:20] ---**
That day, I saw the sun
above the snowy battlefield.
**[17:25] ---**
That single sun split into three,
**[17:27] ---**
and then rejoined into one.
**[17:30] ---**
The three suns are us three brothers.
**[17:33] ---**
It was a divine revelation commanding
us to rule this land in concert.
**[17:39] ---**
We three York brothers
are under the sun's aegis.
**[17:43] ---**
Let us strengthen our bonds
by hunting under this sun's light.
**[17:47] ---**
Now, we'll see which of us can
bring down the largest game!
**[17:52] ---**
He's certainly in a good mood.
**[18:08] ---**
I long to see you.
**[18:14] ---**
I trust you've read my letter,
**[18:17] ---**
Elizabeth?
**[18:20] ---**
Yes. You wrote that you would
return my husband's lands.
**[18:24] ---**
And in exchange, I ask for your love.
**[18:28] ---**
I believe I wrote as much.
**[18:30] ---**
Your Royal Majesty,
as I am an English subject,
**[18:33] ---**
my love has always been yours.
**[18:36] ---**
Elizabeth, it is the fruits
of love that I desire.
**[18:40] ---**
Put plainly,
**[18:44] ---**
I want to sleep with you.
**[18:47] ---**
Then Your Majesty must send me
to sleep in a prison cell.
**[18:55] ---**
You would slay a king
to preserve your honor?
**[19:01] ---**
I would.
**[19:03] ---**
You're the first woman
who has ever refused me.
**[19:07] ---**
Elizabeth, I'm more eager
to test you than ever.
**[19:13] ---**
Your Majesty, I am too lowly
to be your queen,
**[19:18] ---**
but I am too noble to be your mistress.
**[19:22] ---**
My queen? You're bolder than
your gentle looks suggest.
**[19:28] ---**
How amusing.
**[19:30] ---**
Would you be my queen, Elizabeth?
**[19:36] ---**
Those who love Your Majesty
would never permit it.
**[19:40] ---**
Elizabeth, you are the only one I love.
**[19:45] ---**
I'll hear no more refusals.
**[19:50] ---**
I am king, and I have made my decision.
**[19:59] ---**
So, this is why he
suddenly wanted to hunt.
**[20:13] ---**
You saw us.
**[20:16] ---**
For the present, this secret
stays just between us.
**[20:21] ---**
Richard,
**[20:22] ---**
I have decided...
**[20:25] ---**
...to make her my queen.
**[20:31] ---**
What is this letter?!
**[20:32] ---**
King Edward and his Yorkists killed your--
**[20:34] ---**
Anthony...
**[20:38] ---**
Do you know what this is?
**[20:41] ---**
It's a memento of my husband.
**[20:44] ---**
I still love only one man.
**[20:48] ---**
And so, I will avenge him.
**[20:51] ---**
I'll become queen,
bend the king to my will,
**[20:55] ---**
and the Royal Family of York,
my husband's killers, will be ours.
**[21:03] ---**
Edward's French marriage
will bring even greater power
**[21:06] ---**
to the Royal Family of York.
**[21:10] ---**
Your son looks more
like you than ever lately.
**[21:14] ---**
Sometimes I mistake him for you,
**[21:17] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[21:20] ---**
I promise to defend your crown,
**[21:25] ---**
no matter who threatens it.
**[21:42] ---**
Hey, have you heard?
**[21:44] ---**
They say King Edward comes hunting here.
**[21:47] ---**
Incognito?
**[21:49] ---**
Of course. I mean, this *is* King Edward.
**[21:52] ---**
You hide your wives and
daughters when he comes by.
**[21:56] ---**
Excuse me.
**[21:57] ---**
I'm looking for someone.

**[00:01] ---**
Excuse me.
**[00:02] ---**
I'm looking for someone.
**[00:04] ---**
What're they like?
**[00:06] ---**
He's small and thin,
with black hair and clothes.
**[00:09] ---**
What's his name?
**[00:11] ---**
His name?
**[00:14] ---**
He's named Richard.
**[00:17] ---**
Does he live around here?
**[00:19] ---**
No, but I have faith that I'll meet him.
**[00:22] ---**
The taste of blood.
**[00:24] ---**
The scent of blood.
**[00:25] ---**
That act must be the same.
**[00:38] ---**
Richard, are you drunk?
**[00:41] ---**
Yes.
**[00:42] ---**
A little.
**[00:44] ---**
Everyone's the same, anyway.
**[00:46] ---**
When they discover the real me,
they turn to flight.
**[00:51] ---**
The field of battle is all I need.
**[00:58] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:00] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:03] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:09] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:51] ---**
O God, God, God!
**[02:54] ---**
Marrying that man was the start
of all my misfortunes!
**[03:00] ---**
I wish he would just stay missing.
**[03:03] ---**
Edward.
**[03:05] ---**
I'm joking, Mother.
**[03:07] ---**
Our restoration would be
impossible without him.
**[03:11] ---**
A Lancastrian revival will
restore your rights as well.
**[03:17] ---**
But that man abandoned his son.
**[03:20] ---**
A true king would never disinherit me,
his own flesh and blood.
**[03:28] ---**
He did abandon me back then.
**[03:32] ---**
Sobbing all the while
**[03:35] ---**
that he "couldn't help it."
**[03:40] ---**
He is... no longer my father.
**[03:47] ---**
In that case, Edward,
your *mother* commands you:
**[03:51] ---**
--Retrieve His Majesty, King Henry.
--Why me?!
**[03:54] ---**
It would be a fatal blow to us
if he fell into enemy hands.
**[03:59] ---**
--But--
--If you insist that he
is not your father,
**[04:03] ---**
then prove it.
**[04:05] ---**
Prove that unlike your father,
you can do your duty with distinction.
**[04:10] ---**
Prove that you are the next King
of England, whatever he may be.
**[04:18] ---**
Very well.
**[04:21] ---**
I will bring him back for you,
and not for love of him.
**[04:29] ---**
You're going hunting with Edward *again*?
**[04:32] ---**
He's been infatuated with hunting
since that trip we took.
**[04:36] ---**
Yes, quite "infatuated."
**[04:38] ---**
I get it!
**[04:39] ---**
Edward wants to practice
in secret, doesn't he?
**[04:42] ---**
Don't try to hide it.
**[04:44] ---**
I merely accompany him.
**[04:47] ---**
Lord Richard!
**[04:48] ---**
A letter for Your Grace.
**[04:50] ---**
Leave it in my room.
**[04:53] ---**
Goodbye, George.
**[04:56] ---**
Hey, is that a letter from Anne?
**[04:58] ---**
And for you, Lord George,
another letter from Lady Isabelle.
**[05:03] ---**
K-Keep your voice down!
**[05:04] ---**
I merely accompany him...
**[05:10] ---**
...to preserve His Majesty's secret.
**[05:15] ---**
I'm off to see Elizabeth.
**[05:17] ---**
Spend a few days hunting and tell
anyone who asks that I was here.
**[05:23] ---**
Is this really necessary?
**[05:25] ---**
People will find out eventually.
**[05:28] ---**
You're right. Our relationship will become
public knowledge sooner or later.
**[05:34] ---**
And that's why I've decided to take action
before things get complicated.
**[05:41] ---**
I'm going to marry her now,
while our secret is still safe.
**[05:46] ---**
That doesn't sound like a jest.
**[05:48] ---**
I never jest.
**[05:51] ---**
You see, Richard,
**[05:53] ---**
I doubt that I'll ever meet
another woman to match her.
**[05:58] ---**
If I let her go, I'll regret it
as long as I live.
**[06:03] ---**
But still...
**[06:04] ---**
You're already my accomplice.
Is that clear?
**[06:08] ---**
Does love make people as blind as this?
**[06:16] ---**
The king of a country,
marrying a minor noble's widow?
**[06:21] ---**
Complications are inevitable.
**[06:24] ---**
It's nonsense.
**[06:26] ---**
He speaks as though
that woman is more valuable.
**[06:31] ---**
As though she's worth more than
the crown that Father died for.
**[06:37] ---**
Meeting you here delights me
more than any crown.
**[06:45] ---**
This isn't that forest.
**[06:48] ---**
He couldn't be here.
**[06:51] ---**
That was our last meeting.
**[06:56] ---**
I'll never see him again.
**[07:01] ---**
He and I...
**[07:06] ---**
...*should* never meet again.
**[07:10] ---**
Richard?
**[07:13] ---**
Oh, I knew that God would unite us.
**[07:17] ---**
I had faith that I would see you again.
**[07:20] ---**
Have you been well?
**[07:22] ---**
Why does he always turn up
in my path without warning?
**[07:30] ---**
What are you doing here?
**[07:33] ---**
I'd love to return
to that forest with you.
**[07:35] ---**
You and I live in different places.
**[07:39] ---**
Get back to your sheepfold.
**[07:45] ---**
I'm not a shepherd.
**[07:48] ---**
I'm a traveler now.
I've been traveling in search of you.
**[07:53] ---**
You are my home to return to.
**[07:58] ---**
Why are you so obsessed
with me, of all people?
**[08:02] ---**
Because! Because you've been
my salvation all this time!
**[08:06] ---**
I was your salvation? Me?
**[08:12] ---**
You were my only solace
through all those days of war.
**[08:16] ---**
So, please, let me stay with you.
It needn't be for long.
**[08:25] ---**
Until the rain stops.
**[08:32] ---**
Undress. I'll give you fresh clothes.
**[08:35] ---**
Do you live alone?
**[08:37] ---**
Do you want to know my past?
**[08:39] ---**
No. I don't care what you are.
**[08:42] ---**
It's you yourself that I like.
**[08:46] ---**
You're lying. If you ever found
out about the real me...
**[09:00] ---**
What?!
**[09:02] ---**
You ought to undress too.
**[09:04] ---**
I wouldn't want you to get sick.
**[09:08] ---**
I'll bring you fresh clothes. Wait here.
**[09:13] ---**
He may be womanish,
but he has a man's body.
**[09:17] ---**
Of course he does.
**[09:19] ---**
But I'm different.
**[09:22] ---**
No matter how hard I train,
**[09:24] ---**
my marks of womanhood remain.
**[09:28] ---**
Binding my chest can't
fill the void within me.
**[09:37] ---**
Hey! What are you doing in the kitchen?
**[09:40] ---**
Making soup. I'd been hoping
to surprise you with it.
**[09:46] ---**
Oh, wow! It's real food!
**[09:48] ---**
Just so you know,
I've never cooked before either.
**[09:54] ---**
Something's missing.
**[09:56] ---**
How about cinnamon? I'll get some!
**[10:02] ---**
Should a devout shepherd really
be dining this late at night?
**[10:07] ---**
Well...
**[10:10] ---**
I haven't eaten since yesterday.
**[10:13] ---**
I'm sure God will understand.
**[10:16] ---**
So this wasn't out of gratitude?
You were just hungry?
**[10:20] ---**
No. I really did want to thank you.
**[10:23] ---**
Don't worry about it. Just eat up.
**[10:26] ---**
All right.
**[10:29] ---**
It's delicious.
**[10:35] ---**
I've never tasted such delectable soup.
**[10:38] ---**
I'm sure farmers' soups
are nothing but beans.
**[10:41] ---**
I don't mean that.
**[10:42] ---**
Just that cooking for myself
tasted wonderful.
**[10:45] ---**
I did most of the cooking, remember?
**[10:48] ---**
Yes. That's what made it so delicious.
**[10:52] ---**
Thank you, Richard.
**[10:57] ---**
It looks like it will rain all night.
**[11:01] ---**
I'll lend you a bed.
**[11:02] ---**
You will?
**[11:04] ---**
Our promise was until the rain stops.
**[11:07] ---**
Just leave on your own in the morning.
**[11:10] ---**
What am I saying?
**[11:13] ---**
Can't we share a bed?
**[11:17] ---**
Your room is that way.
**[11:19] ---**
I want to keep talking with you.
**[11:22] ---**
I can't bear to part with you
when I wake up.
**[11:25] ---**
I'm not a child!
**[11:27] ---**
Get to sleep on your own.
**[11:36] ---**
I can't let this go on.
**[11:39] ---**
If I spend any longer with him...
**[11:42] ---**
Richard, what is your favorite thing?
**[11:47] ---**
What's your favorite food?
**[11:50] ---**
Your favorite song or color of sky?
**[11:54] ---**
Your favorite game for rainy days?
**[11:57] ---**
Don't confuse me any more
than you already have.
**[12:11] ---**
It's really pouring.
**[12:13] ---**
You sound pleased.
**[12:15] ---**
I am! I'd love to go on talking with you.
**[12:19] ---**
I'd rather not,
but a promise is a promise.
**[12:23] ---**
Besides which, I doubt that Edward
will be back anytime soon.
**[12:29] ---**
Strawberries.
**[12:30] ---**
Huh?
**[12:32] ---**
That's my favorite food.
**[12:34] ---**
I love them too!
**[12:37] ---**
Prince Edward!
**[12:39] ---**
A man in the tavern claims
to have met King Henry.
**[12:41] ---**
Are you sure he's not some lying drunk?
**[12:44] ---**
He said King Henry was looking
for a man named Richard.
**[12:48] ---**
Richard?
**[12:50] ---**
You don't play cards or chess.
**[12:52] ---**
How do you pass the time on days
you don't make sundials?
**[12:56] ---**
I'm glad you remembered that.
**[12:58] ---**
I'm not fond of competing
with other people.
**[13:02] ---**
I want to hear more of your stories.
**[13:04] ---**
I don't know any more.
**[13:06] ---**
Even a fairy tale would do.
**[13:11] ---**
I don't read as much as my brother.
**[13:17] ---**
This is... the story of a demon child.
**[13:22] ---**
On the day that child was born,
a terrible storm laid trees low.
**[13:28] ---**
Crows croaked in the night to herald
the coming of an age of misfortune.
**[13:35] ---**
The child's mother suffered
abnormal birthing pains
**[13:38] ---**
and despised her hideous offspring.
**[13:41] ---**
The prophets said that one day, everyone
would curse the day that child was born.
**[13:50] ---**
Did no one love that child?
**[13:53] ---**
Some approached him in ignorance,
**[13:55] ---**
but even they left when they
learned he was a demon.
**[13:59] ---**
Did anyone love that child?
**[14:03] ---**
He was loved by...
**[14:12] ---**
That wasn't a very good story.
**[14:14] ---**
That's the end.
**[14:17] ---**
Richard.
**[14:19] ---**
Richard!
**[14:29] ---**
Maybe I drank too much.
**[14:31] ---**
I've never had so much wine before.
**[14:35] ---**
I don't know why, but I always say
shameful things when I'm with you.
**[14:41] ---**
Why do I only tell you?
**[14:44] ---**
Because we're friends.
**[14:47] ---**
Maybe with you, I...
**[14:56] ---**
Richard.
**[15:00] ---**
Please forgive me,
**[15:02] ---**
O Lord!
**[15:05] ---**
Oh, no!
**[15:07] ---**
A-Are you all right?
**[15:09] ---**
I-I'm sorry.
**[15:11] ---**
I'm... not fond of lightning.
**[15:21] ---**
I don't care for it much myself.
**[15:23] ---**
I'll share your bed tonight.
**[15:28] ---**
You called me your salvation.
**[15:32] ---**
I think that I'm the one our meetings
**[15:37] ---**
have been saving.
**[15:44] ---**
If my father is in this area,
we haven't a moment to waste.
**[15:48] ---**
I'll scout ahead.
**[15:50] ---**
Please wait, Your Highness!
**[15:51] ---**
We'll stand out if we all go.
You wait here.
**[15:58] ---**
Henry?
**[16:01] ---**
Could Richard be here?
**[16:06] ---**
When I'm with you like this,
I could almost forget about England.
**[16:10] ---**
You mustn't do that, my king.
**[16:15] ---**
Tell me, Elizabeth, have you
ever heard this fairy tale?
**[16:21] ---**
Somewhere or other,
**[16:23] ---**
there lived a prosperous father who
owned a book that recorded the future.
**[16:28] ---**
Even his son's fate was
written in that book.
**[16:34] ---**
"He will marry the daughter of a poor
farmer who lives by the cathedral,"
**[16:39] ---**
is what the book said.
**[16:47] ---**
The father found that girl
**[16:51] ---**
and tried again and again
to part her from his son.
**[16:56] ---**
But every time, a miracle occurred...
**[17:00] ---**
...and brought the two together.
**[17:05] ---**
The moral is that no one can defy fate.
**[17:21] ---**
Richard!
**[17:23] ---**
Hey!
**[17:24] ---**
Are you hurt?!
**[17:26] ---**
Damn it! What should I do?!
**[17:39] ---**
Henry?
**[17:41] ---**
Thank God!
**[17:44] ---**
Did he...?
**[17:46] ---**
Was I...?
**[17:52] ---**
Look, Richard!
**[17:54] ---**
It's a miracle! They weren't washed away!
**[17:57] ---**
Look!
**[18:00] ---**
Strawberries.
**[18:02] ---**
They grow thickly on that bank.
**[18:04] ---**
I'd hoped to make it a secret
and surprise you.
**[18:09] ---**
You mean you didn't leave?
**[18:12] ---**
Didn't I tell you?
**[18:15] ---**
You're my home to return to.
**[18:27] ---**
What did I just...?
**[18:30] ---**
What am I thinking?
**[18:32] ---**
Henry, you make me mad.
**[18:37] ---**
I'm afraid I'm going to lose
**[18:40] ---**
the answers I've gotten and...
everything else.
**[18:44] ---**
But even so...
**[18:46] ---**
Even so, forever and ever, I...
**[18:53] ---**
We promised.
**[18:55] ---**
Could we make another promise?
**[18:58] ---**
If we could promise to meet again,
**[19:00] ---**
I could live with that as
my home to return to.
**[19:04] ---**
Don't. If I spend any more time with you--
**[19:08] ---**
Please, Richard.
**[19:12] ---**
The house's owner has returned.
**[19:14] ---**
Don't come here again.
**[19:16] ---**
I've never made a promise
to meet you before,
**[19:20] ---**
but we still ended up like this.
**[19:22] ---**
Yes, you're right.
**[19:24] ---**
I'm sure we'll meet again.
**[19:42] ---**
So you are a man, Richard.
**[19:45] ---**
Tell me, what is she like?
**[19:48] ---**
What do you mean?
**[19:50] ---**
You don't need to hide it. Have you
arranged another rendezvous?
**[19:55] ---**
No.
**[19:57] ---**
Do you regret it?
**[20:01] ---**
Not as much as your marriage.
**[20:03] ---**
I don't regret that.
**[20:06] ---**
I loved as my soul bid me.
**[20:09] ---**
Our meeting was God's will.
**[20:13] ---**
Look, Richard. It's beautiful.
**[20:24] ---**
Edward seems in an awfully
good mood again today.
**[20:29] ---**
Your Majesty, I wish to make a report.
**[20:33] ---**
Warwick, you've returned.
Is your news good?
**[20:36] ---**
Naturally.
**[20:37] ---**
That's perfect.
**[20:39] ---**
I wish to make an announcement
here today as well.
**[20:44] ---**
After you, Earl of Warwick.
**[20:47] ---**
Very well.
**[20:49] ---**
Allow me to inform you all that an
engagement has been contracted
**[20:53] ---**
between King Edward and Lady Bona,
sister-in-law to the King of France.
**[20:59] ---**
Oh, what wonderful news!
**[21:01] ---**
Congratulations, Your Majesty!
**[21:04] ---**
Allow me to join in--
**[21:07] ---**
Your Majesty?
**[21:11] ---**
Warwick, ever since we vanquished
the Lancastrians in battle,
**[21:15] ---**
a sturdy chain has bound
our souls together,
**[21:20] ---**
has it not?
**[21:22] ---**
As God is my witness.
**[21:23] ---**
In that case...
**[21:24] ---**
Don't tell me...
**[21:26] ---**
I have something to tell you all as well.
**[21:41] ---**
Allow me to introduce you.
**[21:44] ---**
This is my wife.

**[00:01] ---**
Allow me to introduce you.
**[00:04] ---**
This is my wife.
**[00:06] ---**
What's the meaning of this, Edward?!
**[00:09] ---**
I have already been formally
wed to this lady, Elizabeth.
**[00:13] ---**
I therefore cannot marry Lady Bona.
**[00:18] ---**
My king, do you realize
what you are saying?
**[00:23] ---**
A sovereign's marriage
is not a personal matter.
**[00:27] ---**
I understand that,
**[00:28] ---**
but I can't help having met her!
**[00:31] ---**
I cannot undo my compact
with the King of France!
**[00:34] ---**
Nor I my compact with God!
**[00:36] ---**
How could you put base lusts
before the good of England?
**[00:40] ---**
Make your choice: that woman, or me!
**[00:43] ---**
I choose love!
**[00:45] ---**
Oh, I can't keep myself from smiling.
**[00:48] ---**
Now I'm queen in fact as well as name.
**[00:58] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:00] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:03] ---**
These royal houses with roses
for their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:09] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:53] ---**
God save Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth!
**[03:03] ---**
Have you heard?
**[03:04] ---**
Queen Elizabeth's younger sister
married the Duke of Buckingham.
**[03:08] ---**
But the queen's family is too
lowly to marry into a dukedom.
**[03:13] ---**
The leading nobles of the realm
are bowing and scraping to us.
**[03:18] ---**
Not even the Kingmaker can ignore me now.
**[03:23] ---**
Lord Warwick.
**[03:27] ---**
Excuse me. Who might you be?
**[03:32] ---**
You must be joking.
**[03:33] ---**
Surely you haven't forgotten
your queen's younger brother?
**[03:37] ---**
I beg your pardon.
**[03:39] ---**
Her Majesty's whim brings more
parvenus to court almost daily of late.
**[03:46] ---**
By the way, my lord,
**[03:48] ---**
have you given our reply
to the King of France yet?
**[03:53] ---**
I can't believe it.
**[03:55] ---**
He's the king of a whole country.
**[03:57] ---**
He could've at least
consulted us or his council.
**[03:59] ---**
Does my marriage displease you?
**[04:02] ---**
I agree with Warwick.
**[04:05] ---**
Then I suppose you're
still my only ally, Richard.
**[04:09] ---**
Even now.
**[04:11] ---**
Richard, don't tell me
you knew about this!
**[04:15] ---**
I'm not on anyone's side.
**[04:20] ---**
It's going to be war.
**[04:22] ---**
There will be war with France,
mark my words.
**[04:25] ---**
Why do you think so?
**[04:27] ---**
Because your brother acted the fool.
**[04:30] ---**
Watch your tongue, brat.
**[04:32] ---**
I'm no brat.
**[04:33] ---**
I'm the Duke of Buckingham.
**[04:35] ---**
The one your brother saddled with
some provincial dame for a wife.
**[04:41] ---**
You're an amusing fellow.
**[04:44] ---**
It seems you speak my language, Richard.
**[04:49] ---**
I prefer women of lofty status.
**[04:54] ---**
Hey.
**[04:56] ---**
Ow!
**[04:57] ---**
I'm no woman, Duke.
**[05:01] ---**
I hear the French king, Louis,
is a cautious man.
**[05:05] ---**
I doubt he'd be so quick to raise an army.
**[05:13] ---**
King Edward was married already, you say?
**[05:17] ---**
Is this the amity that England
seeks with France?
**[05:21] ---**
Warwick,
**[05:22] ---**
have you not sacrificed much
to set a crown upon his head?
**[05:28] ---**
Is this your reward?
**[05:31] ---**
Will you still call him your king?
**[05:38] ---**
If we get another war to turn
the world upside down,
**[05:42] ---**
then even I might end up king.
**[05:45] ---**
If you weren't a child,
I'd lop off your head for treason.
**[05:49] ---**
Haven't you ever considered it, Richard?!
**[05:51] ---**
You could be king yourself!
**[05:55] ---**
Me, king?
**[05:57] ---**
That's right.
**[05:58] ---**
Needless to say, there are a lot of
people between us and the crown.
**[06:03] ---**
It's like a lightless forest of briars.
**[06:06] ---**
But if war breaks out, we could blaze
a trail through it with our axes!
**[06:12] ---**
Can your scrawny arms lift an axe?
**[06:15] ---**
Not now, but if you feel inclined
to carry one in my place...
**[06:21] ---**
...then becoming your very own
kingmaker sounds like fun.
**[06:37] ---**
Me, become king?
**[06:40] ---**
With this shameful body of mine?
**[06:44] ---**
Don't dream of the impossible.
**[06:46] ---**
There's no kingdom for me.
**[06:50] ---**
But who's worthy to be king if I'm not?
**[06:54] ---**
Father is no longer with us.
**[06:56] ---**
Is Edward worthy of the crown?
**[06:59] ---**
Is Henry, or his son?
**[07:02] ---**
Never.
**[07:07] ---**
Preserve my name, Richard.
It's the name of a king.
**[07:15] ---**
The name... of a king.
**[07:21] ---**
Your Majesty, Henry's
transport is complete.
**[07:25] ---**
How pitiful.
**[07:26] ---**
A former king, captured by
peasants, of all people?
**[07:31] ---**
Does Richard know of this?
**[07:33] ---**
The Duke of Gloucester hasn't
found out yet, but when he does...
**[07:38] ---**
I suppose I'd better keep him
out of London for a while.
**[07:42] ---**
As a matter of fact,
**[07:43] ---**
the Earl of Warwick made
a request on that subject.
**[07:48] ---**
I gave orders to admit no one.
**[07:50] ---**
That servant is out of a job.
**[07:53] ---**
No one in this realm can
defy my command, Richard.
**[07:59] ---**
No one but the king.
**[08:02] ---**
I only take orders from the true king.
**[08:06] ---**
Aren't you the same?
**[08:08] ---**
Don't touch my father.
**[08:10] ---**
What brings you here?
**[08:12] ---**
I've come to collect you.
**[08:25] ---**
Warwick is riding with Richard?
What is he scheming?
**[08:32] ---**
Welcome to Middleham Castle.
**[08:35] ---**
Welcome home, Father.
**[08:38] ---**
You'll be living with us
here for a short while.
**[08:42] ---**
Anne, Isabelle, be on your best behavior.
**[08:58] ---**
I've grown much stronger since then.
**[09:01] ---**
I've learned to fight.
**[09:04] ---**
I've matured as a man.
**[09:07] ---**
And yet, my body always remains imperfect.
**[09:16] ---**
I'm deluding myself.
**[09:20] ---**
It's no delusion, Richard.
**[09:23] ---**
You're in love with Henry.
**[09:26] ---**
Stop.
**[09:28] ---**
You really long to--
**[09:30] ---**
Stop! I'm not a woman!
**[09:32] ---**
Women style their long hair, wear dresses,
**[09:35] ---**
and wait at home for
the men who defend them!
**[09:38] ---**
So, I'm not a woman!
**[09:39] ---**
Anne! You've got to talk to him!
**[09:42] ---**
But I've sent him so many letters,
and he's never answered any of them.
**[09:49] ---**
A boar?
**[09:50] ---**
Hey. Stop that, Whitey.
**[09:52] ---**
I'm sorry. It's normally better behaved.
**[09:58] ---**
Is this the boar from back then?
**[10:01] ---**
I always thought it ended up being
served at that night's dinner.
**[10:08] ---**
Anne!
**[10:13] ---**
I-I'll be your training partner!
**[10:17] ---**
I'm a good rider!
**[10:18] ---**
I-I can outride any
gentleman in the castle.
**[10:26] ---**
Oh, my, Anne.
**[10:28] ---**
The hem of your dress is torn!
**[10:30] ---**
Could that boar be to blame?
**[10:33] ---**
Surely, damaging a lady's
dress requires an apology?
**[10:40] ---**
You've forced my hand.
**[10:41] ---**
But in exchange, I won't go easy on you,
**[10:44] ---**
Anne.
**[10:49] ---**
Duke Richard! Over here!
**[10:59] ---**
I'll admit it.
**[11:00] ---**
Your horsemanship is impressive.
**[11:04] ---**
Truly?
**[11:05] ---**
I'm so glad.
**[11:06] ---**
I've always been jealous of boys,
ever since I was little.
**[11:11] ---**
To be honest, I would have
much rather ridden off to battle
**[11:15] ---**
than sat around in dresses
doing embroidery.
**[11:18] ---**
But when my father hears me say so,
he scolds me for my ignorance
**[11:22] ---**
of the horrors of war.
**[11:24] ---**
No.
**[11:26] ---**
If you'd been a man, I'm sure you
would have made a fine knight.
**[11:32] ---**
Thank you.
**[11:38] ---**
Oh, look, Duke Richard!
**[11:40] ---**
So many acorns!
**[11:42] ---**
Let's scoop some up to bring home.
I'm sure that Whitey will love them.
**[11:48] ---**
Anne is different from other women.
**[11:53] ---**
It's strange. Being with her
puts my mind at ease.
**[11:59] ---**
She doesn't disturb
my thoughts like he does.
**[12:04] ---**
In fact, when we're like this,
I feel like I could forget everything.
**[12:09] ---**
Oh, no! The acorns.
**[12:12] ---**
Should we wrap them in a cloak to carry?
**[12:14] ---**
We should make another trip.
We can bring Whitey.
**[12:21] ---**
I just have to avoid getting too close,
**[12:24] ---**
so that I won't fear losing you.
**[12:27] ---**
If I don't grab your hand,
I won't have to let go.
**[12:36] ---**
How could a sacred king take
a woman like her for his wife?
**[12:41] ---**
Edward shows Richard too much favor.
**[12:44] ---**
I was his favorite before
his marriage, but now...
**[12:48] ---**
Honestly, Duke George!
You've spoken of nothing but King Edward!
**[12:52] ---**
I haven't had a chance
to see you in so long.
**[12:55] ---**
I'm sorry, Isabelle.
**[12:57] ---**
Still, is King Edward really
suited for a sacred throne?
**[13:05] ---**
You seem like you would make
a far better king to me.
**[13:12] ---**
Isabelle.
**[13:19] ---**
Oh, Duke George. You mustn't.
**[13:25] ---**
Would you care for another cup?
**[13:29] ---**
Warwick? What brings you--
**[13:32] ---**
I cannot countenance congress
before marriage, My Lord Duke.
**[13:37] ---**
O-Oh, well, this isn't--
**[13:38] ---**
Did you not say so yourself?
**[13:41] ---**
Such a woman should not
be the wife of a king.
**[13:45] ---**
I must ask you to restrain yourself.
**[13:49] ---**
This is the precious body
of a future queen.
**[13:53] ---**
A queen?
**[13:55] ---**
Isabelle? Of what country?
**[14:01] ---**
Of yours,
**[14:04] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[14:18] ---**
Another cold day.
**[14:23] ---**
Shh! Keep quiet!
**[14:27] ---**
U-Um... I was planning to wait
until you finished working.
**[14:31] ---**
You'll take ill. It's so cold
that the rivers have frozen.
**[14:36] ---**
Y-Yes, they have!
**[14:38] ---**
That's why I hoped you would
go skating with me!
**[14:42] ---**
Are you really sure about this?
You were in the middle of business.
**[14:47] ---**
I'd just started feeling sluggish.
**[14:50] ---**
I'm more concerned about your footing.
**[14:54] ---**
I-I'll be fine!
**[14:56] ---**
I've skated lots of times before.
**[15:01] ---**
Let's race each other to that tree!
**[15:05] ---**
I don't mind.
**[15:06] ---**
You won't beat me!
**[15:12] ---**
The time I spend with Anne does more
than anything else to stabilize me.
**[15:17] ---**
Anne allows me to be myself.
**[15:21] ---**
Duke Richard! Victory is mi--
**[15:27] ---**
I've never felt this way...
**[15:31] ---**
...about another person before.
**[15:38] ---**
Anne, your foot.
**[15:40] ---**
Excuse me. It was untied.
**[15:42] ---**
O-Oh, no.
**[15:45] ---**
Please don't mention it.
**[15:53] ---**
What a blunder.
**[15:54] ---**
You couldn't help it
in this freezing weather.
**[15:57] ---**
What a shame. I was hoping
to make a snowman next.
**[16:03] ---**
Together.
**[16:05] ---**
Is making a snowman too childish?
**[16:09] ---**
No, but I'm not confident
I could do it well.
**[16:14] ---**
I've only made one once,
when I was little.
**[16:17] ---**
I was staring outside on my own,
so my attendant taught me how.
**[16:25] ---**
Was that attendant Mr. Catesby,
by any chance?
**[16:30] ---**
Yes, it was. How did you know?
**[16:33] ---**
I remember him.
**[16:35] ---**
I mean, he was always by your side.
**[16:41] ---**
That was the first time Duke Richard
ever told me about his childhood.
**[16:47] ---**
I'm so happy.
**[16:52] ---**
Do you know what kind
of presents women like?
**[16:56] ---**
How should I know?
**[16:59] ---**
You're a woman, technically.
**[17:01] ---**
I told you, I'm you.
**[17:04] ---**
Half of you is a woman,
so you should know too.
**[17:09] ---**
I wouldn't be happy to get
dresses or hair ornaments.
**[17:13] ---**
I'm not a woman.
**[17:14] ---**
See? You do know.
**[17:17] ---**
You haven't been yourself these days.
**[17:21] ---**
I mean, you're reading romances.
**[17:27] ---**
Loving a woman doesn't
make you a man, you know.
**[17:32] ---**
I've always been a man!
**[17:35] ---**
Oh, I was talking about this book.
**[17:38] ---**
I'm just wishing her well.
Don't get the wrong idea.
**[17:41] ---**
Exactly!
**[17:43] ---**
You'd better forget about happy endings
**[17:46] ---**
unless you can believe to the bitter end.
**[17:52] ---**
I'm not hoping for one.
**[17:54] ---**
It's... It's just that Anne
isn't like other women.
**[18:01] ---**
Where is George?
**[18:03] ---**
With His Majesty,
asking leave to marry me.
**[18:07] ---**
Asking leave? The king himself
already proved that unnecessary.
**[18:13] ---**
I can't rely on George to
dethrone the king as he is.
**[18:17] ---**
I'll need other allies.
**[18:23] ---**
Anne, you look well.
**[18:26] ---**
Yes, I feel much better.
**[18:28] ---**
Thanks to Richard's visit, I suppose.
**[18:32] ---**
Keep it up.
**[18:34] ---**
Continue seducing Richard
until he's infatuated with you.
**[18:39] ---**
"S-Seducing"?
**[18:41] ---**
What an awful way to put it, Father!
**[18:44] ---**
He's still young.
**[18:47] ---**
He can't resist the lure
of a woman's body.
**[18:49] ---**
Stop it. It's not like that between us.
**[18:53] ---**
Listen, Anne.
**[18:55] ---**
I'm going to marry you to Richard.
**[19:00] ---**
You must understand the
Nevilles' current circumstances.
**[19:04] ---**
We need Richard's support.
**[19:09] ---**
You mean you plan to use Duke Richard?
**[19:11] ---**
Naturally.
**[19:13] ---**
It's an aristocratic marriage.
**[19:15] ---**
But Duke Richard is so
kind and pure of heart.
**[19:22] ---**
No!
**[19:23] ---**
Anne.
**[19:25] ---**
I refuse!
**[19:27] ---**
I've never defied you before, Father,
**[19:30] ---**
but this is too far!
**[19:32] ---**
I'll arrange the match,
even if it isn't to your liking.
**[19:37] ---**
Even if you don't love Richard.
**[19:42] ---**
You need only continue to captivate
his heart as you have been.
**[19:47] ---**
I won't do it!
**[19:49] ---**
I-I'll never marry like that!
**[19:53] ---**
I refuse to marry Duke Richard!
**[20:04] ---**
Because I...
**[20:06] ---**
I really do...
**[20:08] ---**
I really do care for him.
**[20:18] ---**
What an idiotic blunder.
**[20:21] ---**
I know how suspicious Richard is.
**[20:24] ---**
I'll never be able to
win him over after this.
**[20:28] ---**
History has gone astray,
and I must set it right.
**[20:30] ---**
He was the true king, not his son!
**[20:35] ---**
I am the Kingmaker, and I'll decide
who is fit to wear the crown.
**[20:41] ---**
Richard is with the Earl of Warwick?
I hope he'll be all right.
**[20:46] ---**
There's nothing to worry about.
**[20:49] ---**
This is a message to Warwick.
**[20:51] ---**
A message?
**[20:53] ---**
Yes. I'm telling him that I trust him.
**[20:58] ---**
You should just focus on
the child you're carrying.
**[21:02] ---**
I suppose.
**[21:04] ---**
I don't love you. Not one bit.
**[21:08] ---**
Once Edward is dead and my child is king,
**[21:12] ---**
the Woodvilles will hold all power,
and my revenge will be complete.
**[21:18] ---**
Come out nice and healthy now,
my little trump card.
**[21:24] ---**
Aren't you glad, Richard?
**[21:27] ---**
This had to happen sooner or later.
**[21:30] ---**
You must have known that.
**[21:33] ---**
No one will love you
but blood and the dead.
**[21:41] ---**
That's right, Richard.
**[21:43] ---**
Fall into the warm depths of darkness.

**[00:02] ---**
She's the spitting image of His Majesty.
**[00:05] ---**
She's a lovely little princess.
**[00:09] ---**
I see.
**[00:11] ---**
A girl? It will be a prince next time.
**[00:14] ---**
Once an heir is born, the Duke
of Clarence will lose his place.
**[00:18] ---**
Just like the Earl of Warwick.
**[00:21] ---**
Why?!
**[00:22] ---**
Why can't I marry Isabelle?!
**[00:25] ---**
Some are uneasy about your
growing too close to Warwick.
**[00:30] ---**
Who's been saying that?
**[00:34] ---**
Did that woman put you up to this?
**[00:43] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[00:45] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[00:48] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[00:54] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:34] ---**
Lift your head, Margaret.
**[02:38] ---**
The haughty and ambitious Edward
**[02:41] ---**
now proclaims himself the
rightful King of England.
**[02:46] ---**
But the true king is...
**[02:47] ---**
Yes, the true king, my father is...
**[02:51] ---**
If only I had been quicker to find him!
**[02:57] ---**
What's going on?
What is Father doing with Richard?!
**[03:01] ---**
Wasn't the throne enough?!
Does he plan to take everything from me?!
**[03:13] ---**
But King Henry yet lives.
**[03:16] ---**
Time is of the essence.
**[03:19] ---**
The enemy's strength grows even as we--
**[03:21] ---**
Oh, I see you've arrived.
**[03:28] ---**
What are *you*...
**[03:30] ---**
...doing here?!
**[03:32] ---**
You shameless familiar of York!
**[03:37] ---**
Damn you!
**[03:40] ---**
Your Majesty, my virtuous queen.
**[03:45] ---**
Sheathe your sword, Prince.
**[03:48] ---**
He is none other than your savior.
**[03:52] ---**
Warwick is going to save us?!
**[03:57] ---**
Your Majesty, I beg you
to forget our past enmity.
**[04:04] ---**
I too have been dishonored
by the rebel Edward.
**[04:11] ---**
Henceforth, I wish to become
your loyal servant
**[04:14] ---**
and to restore King Henry
to his proper station.
**[04:20] ---**
You speak as though you've become God.
**[04:26] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[04:30] ---**
I'm delighted, Warwick.
**[04:32] ---**
Your words have turned
all my hatred into love.
**[04:38] ---**
If you and I...
**[04:42] ---**
...and the King of France join forces,
**[04:45] ---**
we should be able to depose
the false king in short order.
**[04:49] ---**
Mother.
**[04:50] ---**
But only if you can provide proof
that you are not deceiving me.
**[04:57] ---**
Proof?
**[04:59] ---**
What I desire is...
**[05:05] ---**
...your love.
**[05:07] ---**
In token of which, give your eldest
daughter Anne to my prince in marriage.
**[05:24] ---**
Is anything the matter,
**[05:26] ---**
Crown Prince Edward?
**[05:28] ---**
How are York's sons?
**[05:31] ---**
Say... Richard, for example?
**[05:35] ---**
Richard currently resides at my castle.
**[05:39] ---**
My daughter is with him, and--
**[05:40] ---**
I see! He's at your castle.
**[05:44] ---**
I don't want to marry Warwick's daughter,
**[05:47] ---**
but Mother would never let me refuse.
**[05:50] ---**
Still, before I'm married,
I want to see her!
**[05:55] ---**
To see Richard!
**[05:57] ---**
Warwick, please, take me to England!
**[06:11] ---**
Richard.
**[06:13] ---**
Richard!
**[06:15] ---**
I've found you!
**[06:17] ---**
Stay back!
**[06:19] ---**
Richard?
**[06:20] ---**
I'm sure you'd leave me too,
**[06:23] ---**
if you knew the real me.
**[06:25] ---**
That's not true.
I'll stay with you always.
**[06:29] ---**
Duke Richard!
**[06:31] ---**
--Anne.
--Duke Richard,
**[06:33] ---**
it's been so hard for me.
**[06:36] ---**
Pretending to like you, I mean.
**[06:40] ---**
After all, the truth is...
**[06:43] ---**
I actually despise you!
**[06:50] ---**
Richard!
**[06:51] ---**
Stay away.
**[06:53] ---**
Stop it. I can't take anymore.
**[06:59] ---**
Richard!
**[07:15] ---**
There's no one else here.
**[07:18] ---**
No one to hurt you and no one to love you.
**[07:24] ---**
This is a royal palace just for you.
**[07:33] ---**
Father, what's come over you?
**[07:37] ---**
Where is Anne?
**[07:38] ---**
My lady sister is...
**[07:40] ---**
Who is this?
**[07:42] ---**
Wait in the drawing room.
**[07:44] ---**
I will bring Anne to you shortly.
**[07:47] ---**
All right. You needn't rush.
**[07:51] ---**
I've done my best to mend relations
between Anne and Gloucester, but--
**[07:58] ---**
That no longer matters.
**[08:01] ---**
I've decided to take you both to France.
**[08:04] ---**
What's brought this on?
**[08:08] ---**
George will accompany us.
**[08:18] ---**
Then it's finally time to begin?
**[08:23] ---**
Where on earth is she?
**[08:26] ---**
What are you doing there?
**[08:28] ---**
Richard!
**[08:30] ---**
You're not of this castle.
**[08:32] ---**
I-I only just arrived with Warwick!
**[08:36] ---**
I took a stroll and got
separated from him.
**[08:39] ---**
Do you remember, Richard?
**[08:43] ---**
I kissed those lips of yours.
**[08:49] ---**
Duke Richard!
**[08:50] ---**
Anne.
**[08:51] ---**
This is her?
**[08:53] ---**
I found lots of raspberries growing
in the woods the other day.
**[08:59] ---**
Would you come with me to pick some?
**[09:01] ---**
We could go on horseback again and--
**[09:03] ---**
Anne.
**[09:05] ---**
You needn't force yourself anymore.
**[09:08] ---**
I release you.
**[09:13] ---**
I'd thank you not to wander off alone.
**[09:20] ---**
Warwick, I will return to the king.
**[09:24] ---**
I'm sorry to hear it.
**[09:26] ---**
"Sorry"? That's an odd response.
**[09:29] ---**
I thank you. This is all the
result of your tutelage.
**[09:36] ---**
I'll never let my emotions sway me
and lose sight of my position again.
**[09:42] ---**
This was the last time.
**[09:48] ---**
Why don't you stop Richard?!
**[09:52] ---**
Your mother took the stake
I'd planned to tie him to.
**[09:57] ---**
What stake? You mean Anne?
**[10:01] ---**
I see.
**[10:02] ---**
Still, it looked to me like your daughter
has feelings for Richard.
**[10:07] ---**
A child's fancy, soon forgotten.
**[10:11] ---**
I can't be so sure.
**[10:12] ---**
I know you. Who knows when
you'll change your mind
**[10:16] ---**
and start plotting to marry Anne
to Richard after all.
**[10:21] ---**
This is the last they'll ever see
of each other. The very last.
**[10:25] ---**
I can't trust you until I've seen you
bring down the king with my own eyes.
**[10:32] ---**
What do you intend to do, then?
**[10:34] ---**
I'll stay until that happens.
**[10:37] ---**
If we reclaim the throne, I should be
free to decide Richard's fate.
**[10:43] ---**
Anyone who gets in my way
can rot in the Tower until they die.
**[10:49] ---**
Very well. I won't object.
**[10:52] ---**
You'll get your chance to see the moment
the king falls to his knees.
**[11:01] ---**
To arms!
**[11:05] ---**
Have you heard the rebel
army's proclamations?
**[11:09] ---**
They claim you've betrayed
the old nobility
**[11:12] ---**
and shown undue favor to
my family, the Woodvilles.
**[11:16] ---**
Nonsense, although I have
heard similar rumors before.
**[11:21] ---**
Too much worry is bad for your health.
**[11:24] ---**
You're showing signs of another
pregnancy, remember?
**[11:27] ---**
True.
**[11:28] ---**
That's right, and that's why I can't
have you dying on me just yet.
**[11:34] ---**
Not until I give birth to an heir.
**[11:44] ---**
This clamor. The weight of steel.
**[11:47] ---**
Tension and excitement
that make me tremble.
**[11:51] ---**
I've come home to the battlefield.
**[11:54] ---**
What a shame that the Duke
of Clarence is in France.
**[11:58] ---**
He'll miss Gloucester's first campaign.
**[12:01] ---**
It's not just George.
Warwick isn't here either.
**[12:06] ---**
Your Majesty, a message.
**[12:08] ---**
Is that a coincidence?
**[12:12] ---**
I don't believe it!
**[12:15] ---**
I never gave him my permission.
**[12:18] ---**
George has married Isabelle Neville.
**[12:28] ---**
Your Majesty, I believe a temporary
retreat would be advisable.
**[12:33] ---**
Why?
**[12:34] ---**
It's possible that George
is in league with Warwick.
**[12:38] ---**
They may plan to rebel
against Your Majesty.
**[12:41] ---**
Why? What would drive them to rebellion?
**[12:45] ---**
Your Majesty, there are rumors that the
Earl of Warwick instigated this uprising.
**[12:50] ---**
Let's return to London
and augment our forces.
**[12:53] ---**
Hastings is correct, my lord brother!
**[12:56] ---**
Marrying without your permission
is a clear act of rebellion!
**[13:00] ---**
You must punish him severely
to ensure that he can never defy us--
**[13:03] ---**
Anthony!
**[13:05] ---**
George is my brother by blood.
**[13:08] ---**
And I've faced deadly danger with Warwick;
he's more than a brother to me.
**[13:15] ---**
If those two ever betrayed me, then...
**[13:20] ---**
But that could never happen.
**[13:37] ---**
That dream again.
**[13:42] ---**
There's no one else here.
**[13:45] ---**
This is a royal palace just for you.
**[13:48] ---**
I feel at ease in there.
**[13:50] ---**
But there's no palace for me in reality.
**[13:54] ---**
That'd never happen.
**[13:56] ---**
Just suppose. If the Earl of Warwick
defeats King Edward,
**[14:00] ---**
the Duke of Clarence
could be the new king.
**[14:05] ---**
Attack!
**[14:10] ---**
Edward!
**[14:11] ---**
Where's the king?!
**[14:12] ---**
Aim for the king's tent!
**[14:14] ---**
Defend His Majesty!
**[14:26] ---**
Hurry up and run!
**[14:28] ---**
Hey, women came out of that tent!
**[14:30] ---**
Have you found the duke?!
**[14:32] ---**
I need a weapon.
**[14:33] ---**
I don't see Richard anywhere!
**[14:37] ---**
Search everywhere!
**[14:43] ---**
Move, woman. You're in my way.
**[14:54] ---**
Are you really a woman?
**[14:57] ---**
I hear the king's little brother
is awfully small.
**[15:00] ---**
Well, we'll find out once
the bosses see you.
**[15:03] ---**
Lord Warwick and the
Duke of Clarence, I mean.
**[15:06] ---**
I knew it! So, he really
is after the throne!
**[15:10] ---**
Got that? Now, come with me.
**[15:12] ---**
Wait.
**[15:14] ---**
H-Hey.
**[15:17] ---**
Here's your proof.
**[15:27] ---**
I never thought this body of
mine would prove useful.
**[15:31] ---**
I need to rejoin the main force quickly.
**[15:36] ---**
What a wanton woman.
You picked a fine time to tempt a man.
**[15:40] ---**
Tell me, was the king's thing good?
**[15:42] ---**
St-Stop!
**[15:52] ---**
Your Grace!
**[15:54] ---**
--Catesby.
--This way!
**[15:57] ---**
I confirmed that His Royal Majesty
and Lord Hastings went this way.
**[16:01] ---**
Why didn't you go with Hastings?
He's your lord.
**[16:05] ---**
I didn't see you with them.
**[16:08] ---**
What could be more natural than a knight
of the realm defending the royal family?
**[16:13] ---**
I know I've told you not to let
loyalty to my father bind you.
**[16:20] ---**
My humble apologies.
**[16:22] ---**
Don't mind me. I can run.
**[16:24] ---**
We need to rejoin Edward
as soon as possible.
**[16:29] ---**
I beg your pardon.
**[16:30] ---**
Hey! There he is!
**[16:32] ---**
Over here!
**[16:33] ---**
Come quick!
**[16:34] ---**
We caught the king!
**[16:41] ---**
Warwick? How could you repay
my trust with treachery?
**[16:48] ---**
That's a poor jest, Edward.
**[16:52] ---**
"Edward"? You called me your king.
**[16:56] ---**
Edward, it was you who betrayed my trust.
**[17:01] ---**
You cast me down and disgraced me.
**[17:05] ---**
Warwick, mend your speech
and call me king this instant.
**[17:10] ---**
Do that, and I'll forgive you all your--
**[17:12] ---**
It appears that you have yet
to grasp your position.
**[17:15] ---**
You are no longer my king, nor are you
worthy to govern the kingdom.
**[17:21] ---**
I will reclaim the land and return
it to its rightful sovereign.
**[17:28] ---**
What "rightful sovereign"?
**[17:33] ---**
He is here now.
**[17:36] ---**
King George is my true sovereign,
and I, his vassal.
**[17:45] ---**
I see no signs of pursuit.
**[17:47] ---**
Whatever hogwash Warwick
used to justify this,
**[17:51] ---**
George could never take the throne.
**[17:53] ---**
Assuming that King Edward
lives, of course.
**[17:58] ---**
Catesby, you said that it's natural
for a knight to defend royalty.
**[18:03] ---**
Tell me; what would you do
if I betrayed the king?
**[18:09] ---**
What would you do if I sought the throne?
**[18:21] ---**
Your Grace.
**[18:26] ---**
I will...
**[18:29] ---**
...defend the Royal Family of York.
**[18:32] ---**
Your lord father saved my life.
**[18:37] ---**
It is my destiny to follow
the House of York.
**[18:43] ---**
Everyone must want a follower like you.
**[18:48] ---**
Think, Richard.
**[18:51] ---**
What's the best choice?
**[18:54] ---**
Who is most worthy of the throne?
**[19:02] ---**
Unless I fight, I'll lose everything
**[19:05] ---**
to those who have no right.
**[19:10] ---**
Now that the king has been defeated,
who does England belong to?
**[19:14] ---**
Who is sitting on the throne now?
**[19:18] ---**
Elizabeth! The king was ambushed!
**[19:22] ---**
The king is dead?
**[19:23] ---**
N-No, but they took him prisoner.
**[19:26] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[19:27] ---**
Lord Warwick and the Duke of
Clarence are leading troops here!
**[19:30] ---**
What?!
**[19:31] ---**
Warwick, that foolish man.
**[19:37] ---**
If you're going to flee,
take my wife with you.
**[19:40] ---**
She's one of your little sisters.
**[19:43] ---**
Come with us yourself, Buckingham.
**[19:46] ---**
Make ready!
**[19:47] ---**
Why should I go with
the women and children?
**[19:50] ---**
Hey, Anthony.
**[19:52] ---**
What about Richard?
**[19:53] ---**
I haven't heard of his capture.
**[19:55] ---**
I'm more concerned about my father.
Warwick wants revenge on our whole family!
**[20:00] ---**
He'll kill us all!
**[20:02] ---**
I'll never let him do that.
**[20:06] ---**
Never.
**[20:09] ---**
Once you have the queen,
take her directly to the Tower.
**[20:13] ---**
Treat her with the utmost care.
**[20:15] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[20:16] ---**
After all, pregnant women die so easily.
**[20:22] ---**
I'll never let Warwick have his way.
**[20:27] ---**
My vengeance isn't over yet.
**[20:35] ---**
Why, Duke of Buckingham.
**[20:37] ---**
Have you seen the queen, by any chance?
**[20:40] ---**
What would you do if I had?
**[20:42] ---**
You're an intelligent fellow. You ought to
know what the safest course is.
**[20:48] ---**
Once Edward and the queen's family
are gone, George will be the new king?
**[20:55] ---**
But in that case, the next in line
to the throne would be...
**[21:00] ---**
Of course, my lord. If I see her,
I'll inform you at once.
**[21:06] ---**
We're leaving.
**[21:10] ---**
This chance is too good to pass up.
**[21:13] ---**
If the throne rests on
unsteady foundations...
**[21:17] ---**
Hey. Search for Richard.
**[21:20] ---**
Find him before Warwick.
**[21:21] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[21:23] ---**
I've decided to make you my king.
**[21:28] ---**
A man who has no awareness as king.
**[21:31] ---**
A man who is unqualified to be king.
**[21:34] ---**
Neither of them is fit for the throne.
**[21:37] ---**
Even so,
**[21:38] ---**
Warwick, I will never, *never*
give the kingdom to you.
**[21:45] ---**
We're going to rescue King Edward.

**[00:04] ---**
Who'll you wager on?
**[00:06] ---**
My money's on George.
**[00:07] ---**
I'm for King George too.
**[00:10] ---**
He has the Earl of Warwick on his side.
**[00:13] ---**
No one in England can
beat the Kingmaker at--
**[00:16] ---**
I'll wager on Edward.
**[00:18] ---**
That's a woman for you.
The girls all go for a good-looking man.
**[00:23] ---**
I suppose so. Just once, I'd love
to see King Edward in the flesh.
**[00:28] ---**
I believe he's being held near here?
**[00:30] ---**
He's not here anymore.
**[00:32] ---**
I wouldn't mind telling you where he
went if you'll show me a good time.
**[00:36] ---**
Tell me. Immediately.
**[00:39] ---**
M-My humble apologies.
**[00:42] ---**
If you must wait on me,
I wish you'd serve me a woman.
**[00:48] ---**
Edward.
**[00:51] ---**
I'll grant your wish and serve you...
**[00:55] ---**
...a woman's head.
**[01:00] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:02] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:05] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:11] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:51] ---**
Y-You lie.
**[02:53] ---**
Say it isn't true.
**[02:58] ---**
Merely a jest.
**[03:00] ---**
I'm sorry to say that your wife fled to
an abbey before we could reach her.
**[03:05] ---**
So, I asked someone to take her place.
**[03:09] ---**
Namely...
**[03:13] ---**
...your father-in-law.
**[03:16] ---**
Warwick. Do you honestly believe
you'll get away with this?
**[03:20] ---**
Have no fear.
**[03:22] ---**
Once parliament formally deposes you
and King George is on the throne,
**[03:28] ---**
your wife will no longer
even be worth killing.
**[03:32] ---**
Preposterous! God alone has
the right to take my crown!
**[03:37] ---**
True. If I do not take it,
**[03:41] ---**
I may well have God do so.
**[03:45] ---**
It's as I feared.
**[03:47] ---**
I knew that Warwick was no friend of ours.
**[03:51] ---**
Does he plan to send me back to France
**[03:54] ---**
and pretend that our
alliance never happened?
**[04:03] ---**
What did you say?!
**[04:05] ---**
How many times do I have to
tell you?! We're out of room!
**[04:08] ---**
Then chase a few paupers
out and make some!
**[04:16] ---**
Who are you?!
**[04:19] ---**
This heraldry
**[04:21] ---**
is Warwick's.
**[04:27] ---**
Not a bad blade. I think I'll keep it.
**[04:30] ---**
You bitch!
**[04:33] ---**
Being slain by a woman
would stain your reputation.
**[04:37] ---**
Even if you bought your honor with gold.
**[04:40] ---**
Damned riffraff!
**[04:42] ---**
You're a strong one.
**[04:44] ---**
If you're looking for an inn,
we've got room for two.
**[04:48] ---**
You do? I'd like to rest our horses.
**[04:51] ---**
I don't want any trouble,
**[04:53] ---**
but who ever heard of a fugitive couple?
**[04:57] ---**
Come, my guests! We've got newcomers!
**[05:01] ---**
Your Grace.
**[05:02] ---**
It's better than the ground.
**[05:04] ---**
--But...
--Make a wall of yourself, then.
**[05:13] ---**
Pardon me.
**[05:19] ---**
When I was little,
**[05:21] ---**
I once woke you after having
a nightmare, did I not?
**[05:27] ---**
I never expected to gain the
warmth of another body again.
**[05:35] ---**
Not after that day...
**[05:39] ---**
...Henry.
**[06:00] ---**
Your Grace. The man from yesterday was
indeed one of Warwick's messengers.
**[06:06] ---**
He's in there.
**[06:09] ---**
Catesby and I could never bring
Edward out of there alone.
**[06:13] ---**
If only we had more allies.
**[06:18] ---**
Damn. I can't overlook Warwick's
treachery and slink back to France.
**[06:23] ---**
This could doom my love as well.
**[06:28] ---**
Richard!
**[06:32] ---**
Aren't you Warwick's man?
**[06:33] ---**
N-No!
**[06:35] ---**
I came here as his guest,
but I've never once trusted him.
**[06:38] ---**
Yet you've followed him all this way?
**[06:41] ---**
I want to strike back at
Warwick now. Don't you?
**[06:45] ---**
You know who I am?
**[06:47] ---**
No! All I know is that
you're a charming lady.
**[06:53] ---**
I want you to do me a favor.
**[06:55] ---**
Take me into the castle
with you as your woman.
**[07:01] ---**
Is this a dream?
**[07:04] ---**
I don't want my face seen.
**[07:07] ---**
May the two of us act
alone except while riding?
**[07:10] ---**
Of course.
**[07:19] ---**
It's like a dream come true.
I'm going to be queen.
**[07:25] ---**
What is Father thinking,
imprisoning His Majesty?
**[07:30] ---**
Edward is the one to blame.
**[07:32] ---**
Father has merely seen justice done.
**[07:38] ---**
Duke Richard...
**[07:40] ---**
We act as soon as we reach
the castle and the troops disperse,
**[07:45] ---**
when they're most exhausted
and least cautious.
**[07:49] ---**
All right.
**[07:50] ---**
It appears that you're
quite a special guest.
**[07:54] ---**
You're permitted a certain
degree of unusual activity.
**[07:59] ---**
Therefore,
**[08:00] ---**
I want you to offer me to King
Edward as a high-class prostitute.
**[08:06] ---**
O-Offer you to him?!
**[08:08] ---**
No! I forbid it! You ought to
take better care of yourself!
**[08:14] ---**
I won't actually sleep with him.
**[08:16] ---**
Me? With a man? It's absurd.
**[08:19] ---**
But I can make use of this body.
**[08:21] ---**
This detestable body of mine.
**[08:25] ---**
Very well. If you really insist.
**[08:31] ---**
But, um, let me ask you one thing.
**[08:34] ---**
A-Are you... a virgin?
**[08:39] ---**
You have a genius for irritating me.
**[08:42] ---**
D-Do you have a lover?
**[08:45] ---**
I have nothing of the kind,
and I never will.
**[08:50] ---**
Truly? There was nothing
between her and my father?
**[08:55] ---**
Her body is still untouched?
**[08:59] ---**
No. Richard is putting her trust in me.
**[09:04] ---**
But I'll never get
another chance like this.
**[09:15] ---**
Your Grace!
**[09:19] ---**
Have years of misfortune
made me forget my pride?
**[09:23] ---**
I'm the prince of Lancaster.
**[09:26] ---**
I'll take what I want honestly and openly.
**[09:30] ---**
I am a future king!
**[09:36] ---**
We still have time before we go to an inn.
Care to take a look around?
**[09:40] ---**
What for?
**[09:41] ---**
Oh, well...
**[09:43] ---**
I thought a "high-class prostitute"
should have somewhat finer clothes.
**[09:49] ---**
The surest way to a woman's heart...
**[09:53] ---**
...is with gifts!
**[09:55] ---**
I think these will do.
**[09:57] ---**
You can't be too careful.
**[09:59] ---**
What do you say to this?
Wouldn't it suit you?
**[10:02] ---**
Would you care to try it on?
**[10:03] ---**
No.
**[10:04] ---**
Come on. Try it.
**[10:08] ---**
It would be hard to swing a sword.
**[10:10] ---**
You look lovely! I wish I could
have your portrait painted.
**[10:14] ---**
How about this?
**[10:15] ---**
Some cloth to hide my face will do.
**[10:20] ---**
Why?! I have plenty of money!
**[10:22] ---**
You'll look more feminine
in fancier clothes!
**[10:27] ---**
That's why I refused.
**[10:30] ---**
Do I look like a woman to you?
**[10:33] ---**
Of course you do.
**[10:37] ---**
I see.
**[10:42] ---**
What a difficult woman.
I knew this wouldn't be simple.
**[10:47] ---**
But that's her charm.
**[10:50] ---**
There are a lot of people.
Take care not to lose me.
**[10:55] ---**
What do you think of my manliness?!
**[10:58] ---**
It's hard to walk. Let go.
**[11:10] ---**
Strawberry pies? Would you like one?
**[11:14] ---**
Shopkeeper! Two pies, and make it quick!
**[11:17] ---**
Buy one more for me.
**[11:19] ---**
I'll buy as many as you like!
**[11:38] ---**
Is it good? Would you like mine too?
**[11:41] ---**
Aren't you going to eat it?
**[11:42] ---**
It's fine. I wanted to buy
you something you wanted.
**[11:47] ---**
Wasn't there anything you wanted?
**[11:50] ---**
What I want is...
**[11:58] ---**
I want a crown.
**[12:02] ---**
Only the king can have a crown.
**[12:06] ---**
I know that, but--
**[12:08] ---**
Even wishing for one is a sin.
**[12:11] ---**
But once we save the king, I'm sure
he'll thank you with a circlet of gold.
**[12:16] ---**
Have you...
**[12:18] ---**
Have you never wished for something?
**[12:21] ---**
Never wanted something,
even if you sinned to get it?
**[12:28] ---**
Even if...
**[12:31] ---**
...I sin...
**[12:37] ---**
I wish they'd give us a bit of a rest.
**[12:39] ---**
We're shorthanded.
There's fighting all over these days.
**[12:44] ---**
Convince them like I told you. Don't fail.
**[12:47] ---**
Have no fear. I'll preserve your virtue.
**[12:52] ---**
Hello, gentlemen.
Thank you for your service.
**[12:55] ---**
Whoa there. I realize you must be
wondering what brings me here.
**[13:00] ---**
I'll tell you how it is:
**[13:02] ---**
I've brought Edward some game to hunt.
**[13:06] ---**
The lucky devil.
**[13:08] ---**
Now, will you make way for us?
**[13:13] ---**
Edward!
**[13:15] ---**
Excuse me.
**[13:16] ---**
Please leave the door open. Just in case.
**[13:20] ---**
So, I'll be watched.
**[13:27] ---**
Who are you? What's this about?
**[13:31] ---**
You wouldn't be an assassin, would you?
**[13:33] ---**
No.
**[13:35] ---**
Certainly not.
**[13:37] ---**
Rich--
**[13:42] ---**
Pardon me, Your Grace.
**[13:44] ---**
I merely wish to soothe your cares
with all my heart, Duke Edward.
**[13:52] ---**
How charming.
**[13:54] ---**
Show me proof of your intentions, then.
**[13:57] ---**
I see.
**[13:59] ---**
You've come prepared.
**[14:01] ---**
Still, this is a rare opportunity.
**[14:04] ---**
You there. Jailers.
**[14:05] ---**
What would you say to shutting
that door and joining us?
**[14:12] ---**
Why?
**[14:13] ---**
Why does no one come?
**[14:15] ---**
My Lord! There's strife or signs
of it throughout England!
**[14:18] ---**
Lords report that it's difficult
for them to leave their lands!
**[14:21] ---**
My Lord! A request for aid!
**[14:23] ---**
This vow requires your attention first!
**[14:25] ---**
I am...
**[14:27] ---**
I am the king!
**[14:31] ---**
The lack of a king is
the cause of this unrest.
**[14:34] ---**
It requires legitimate royal
authority to subdue.
**[14:37] ---**
Then make me king and--
**[14:39] ---**
I cannot make you king
without holding a parliament.
**[14:44] ---**
Not unless Edward was to die.
**[14:47] ---**
The guard should be lighter if we circle
around from this side.
**[14:51] ---**
Catesby is waiting with
horses outside the castle.
**[14:54] ---**
Let's hurry.
**[15:03] ---**
Th-These walls are quite high.
**[15:05] ---**
Take off your cloak. You'll drown.
**[15:11] ---**
Your Majesty, I've instructed Catesby
to hurry to us when I give the signal.
**[15:16] ---**
Very well. Follow close behind me.
**[15:32] ---**
Please make haste. A patrol is coming.
**[15:35] ---**
Hey.
**[15:40] ---**
Will you join us?
**[15:44] ---**
No.
**[15:46] ---**
I see. This is goodbye, then.
**[15:49] ---**
Take care that you don't end up hanged.
**[15:51] ---**
W-Wait!
**[15:53] ---**
Take this. I bought it in the marketplace.
**[15:56] ---**
Care for it as you would me.
**[16:06] ---**
Until the day... the day we meet again.
**[16:11] ---**
When the time comes, I swear
I'll come for you as a king.
**[16:19] ---**
Your Majesty. Both the time
and place demand speed.
**[16:22] ---**
We must sail overseas before we're found.
**[16:29] ---**
Impossible. They can't have
caught up to us so soon.
**[16:39] ---**
Your Majesty, King Edward IV...
**[16:43] ---**
...your servant Buckingham
has come to escort you.
**[16:48] ---**
I'm impressed by your swiftness.
**[16:51] ---**
The time will come when
I reward your loyalty.
**[16:55] ---**
Please rest as long as you wish tonight.
**[16:58] ---**
I shall furnish you with
women if you require it.
**[17:01] ---**
How thoughtful of you, but there's
something I want more than women now.
**[17:12] ---**
Leave. I'm about to change.
**[17:14] ---**
Those clothes become you.
**[17:17] ---**
How did you know what we were doing?
**[17:20] ---**
I was looking for you.
**[17:22] ---**
I didn't expect you to rescue Edward,
but it was a stroke of luck.
**[17:27] ---**
A war to avenge your brother will
bolster your heroism and legitimacy.
**[17:32] ---**
What's your point?
**[17:33] ---**
It's still not too late.
**[17:37] ---**
Remove one of the brambles
between you and the throne.
**[17:41] ---**
If anyone asks, just say that
**[17:43] ---**
he had already been killed when
you arrived to rescue him.
**[17:55] ---**
Don't mistake me.
**[17:57] ---**
I want security for the
Royal Family of York.
**[18:01] ---**
It isn't women that I want now.
**[18:04] ---**
I want only one thing:
**[18:07] ---**
You, Warwick.
**[18:10] ---**
You mocked me.
**[18:12] ---**
I will never be able
to experience joy again
**[18:17] ---**
until I hold your head in my hands.
**[18:20] ---**
Edward has escaped?
**[18:22] ---**
Someone infiltrated the
castle and abducted him.
**[18:25] ---**
He has any number of partisans.
**[18:27] ---**
We haven't located Richard yet either.
**[18:31] ---**
The king's rescue will bolster
our enemies' morale.
**[18:34] ---**
Spread rumors that we released him.
**[18:37] ---**
--Yes, my lord!
--There's no cause for alarm!
**[18:39] ---**
Even if Edward does raise troops,
he could never defeat us now!
**[18:45] ---**
I am the king! The people are with us!
**[18:49] ---**
But unrest due to the lack of a
sovereign has halved our supporters.
**[18:54] ---**
Circumstances are as uncertain
as a tossing ship.
**[18:57] ---**
Wait!
**[19:00] ---**
I'm his honored guest.
**[19:04] ---**
Isn't that right, Warwick?
**[19:07] ---**
Who are you?
**[19:11] ---**
Who did you say was king?
**[19:14] ---**
Tell me, Warwick.
**[19:16] ---**
Who is the king?
**[19:19] ---**
King George.
**[19:21] ---**
Are you prepared to kill your brother?
**[19:25] ---**
K-Kill him? We can just capture him again.
**[19:29] ---**
I knew it. George won't bring me victory.
**[19:32] ---**
I have no other choice.
**[19:34] ---**
I'll ask you again.
**[19:36] ---**
My prince,
**[19:38] ---**
as promised, I shall offer
you my daughter.
**[19:42] ---**
"Prince"?! What's the meaning of this?!
**[19:44] ---**
What promise?! Tell me, Warwick!
**[19:58] ---**
I'm grateful to see you again,
my dear Warwick.
**[20:03] ---**
Now, Edward,
**[20:05] ---**
claim your bride.
**[20:11] ---**
Why?!
**[20:13] ---**
You told me that I would
be queen, didn't you?!
**[20:16] ---**
Circumstances have changed.
**[20:19] ---**
Anne.
**[20:21] ---**
You are to be Edward's wife.
**[20:24] ---**
The wife of the future king.
**[20:26] ---**
Henceforth, the Nevilles will share the
fortunes of the House of Lancaster.
**[20:33] ---**
It can't be.
**[20:35] ---**
It's horrible! Horrible!
**[20:39] ---**
Isabelle...
**[20:40] ---**
Aren't you lucky?
**[20:42] ---**
You'll be queen someday.
**[20:45] ---**
I feel like a fool for celebrating.
**[20:47] ---**
I'm miserable. Simply miserable.
**[20:53] ---**
Forgive me, Isabelle,
**[20:55] ---**
but the misery is mine.
**[20:59] ---**
I fooled myself into thinking
we understood each other
**[21:02] ---**
and fell in love with Duke Richard.
**[21:06] ---**
This is only ceremony.
**[21:08] ---**
My heart...
**[21:13] ---**
My heart isn't here.
**[21:17] ---**
Once more, Warwick.
**[21:20] ---**
Proclaim it to everyone here.
**[21:23] ---**
Speak the name of England's king.
**[21:27] ---**
On this wonderful day,
**[21:30] ---**
the Lord God has restored our true
king to his throne once more.
**[21:37] ---**
I give thanks for this joyous
opportunity to praise his name.
**[21:42] ---**
Our sovereign...
**[21:46] ---**
His Majesty, King Henry VI.

**[00:23] ---**
Have the servants handle the rest.
**[00:37] ---**
Oh.
**[00:40] ---**
You've come to see me, Richard.
**[00:46] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[00:48] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[00:51] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[00:57] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:38] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[02:39] ---**
Are you awake?!
**[02:41] ---**
You must be tired. It's been so long since
you last attended to public business.
**[02:47] ---**
Your Majesty, how do you feel?
**[02:51] ---**
Warwick.
**[02:53] ---**
God's will and your hand have
freed me from my imprisonment.
**[02:58] ---**
But this place...
This place is suffocating.
**[03:02] ---**
Why not depart the palace for a time?
**[03:05] ---**
What?
**[03:06] ---**
I mean rest your mind on a pilgrimage.
**[03:11] ---**
That should be the best thing
for your health as well.
**[03:15] ---**
But if I did that...
**[03:17] ---**
Have no fear. We shall bear
the heavy burden of government.
**[03:23] ---**
You needn't appear in public; we'll let
it be known that you've taken ill.
**[03:30] ---**
I suppose you're right.
**[03:32] ---**
This must be a sign from God.
**[03:35] ---**
Warwick, I name you Protector.
**[03:39] ---**
I relinquish my authority to you.
**[03:43] ---**
A wise decision, Your Majesty.
**[03:49] ---**
Margaret is still in France.
**[03:52] ---**
If we can assault London now--
**[03:54] ---**
It's a shame about Anne.
Weren't you fond of each other?
**[03:59] ---**
And that Lancastrian brat,
of all people, took her from you.
**[04:03] ---**
If that's how it appeared to you,
**[04:06] ---**
it was a trick of Warwick's machinations.
**[04:08] ---**
He's a crafty man. Crafty enough
to inveigle my own brother.
**[04:14] ---**
Warwick and George are the
greatest nobles save the king.
**[04:17] ---**
Anthony and Hastings have returned to us,
**[04:21] ---**
but our forces are still insufficient.
**[04:25] ---**
Therefore, I'd like to ask a favor of you.
**[04:30] ---**
While I admire His Majesty's
wisdom and virtue,
**[04:35] ---**
I must object to his choice
of officers for once.
**[04:38] ---**
Why, my lord?
**[04:39] ---**
Because there is someone far more
fit to be Protector than me.
**[04:46] ---**
Duke George.
**[04:48] ---**
This is our sovereign's will,
but how will you take it?
**[04:54] ---**
I...
**[04:56] ---**
Ever since I betrayed my brother,
I've had no choice but to trust this man.
**[05:02] ---**
If you agree to it, then so will I.
**[05:06] ---**
But first, I want to discuss
the succession to--
**[05:09] ---**
Our first order of business is
to declare Edward a traitor.
**[05:13] ---**
We must confiscate all his
wealth and lands at once.
**[05:16] ---**
Of course, but--
**[05:17] ---**
We'll discuss that at another time.
**[05:24] ---**
George and the Lancastrian prince.
**[05:26] ---**
Whichever I eventually
place on the throne,
**[05:29] ---**
the choice is mine to make.
**[05:32] ---**
I have everything in hand.
**[05:36] ---**
I am now the King of England
in all but name.
**[05:49] ---**
Catesby, take this.
**[05:52] ---**
Richard, deliver this
Yorkist flag to George.
**[05:57] ---**
Tell him that this is my final warning,
**[06:01] ---**
and that he's free to
choose how he uses it.
**[06:06] ---**
Handle it carefully, and don't
let anyone see inside it.
**[06:13] ---**
Must Your Grace carry out such
a dangerous mission yourself?
**[06:17] ---**
The fact that he entrusted it to me
**[06:19] ---**
means that I'm to do all
I can to convince George.
**[06:22] ---**
I see. I'm in awe of the strength
of your brotherly bonds.
**[06:28] ---**
This is less "brotherly love"
than it is a battle for pride.
**[06:33] ---**
If we lose, there will be
no victory in the real war.
**[06:36] ---**
Not for any of us.
**[06:40] ---**
Your Grace.
**[06:42] ---**
But the bond between George
and Warwick is surprisingly firm.
**[06:47] ---**
George stayed with Warwick even after he
sided with Lancaster. Can I move him?
**[06:53] ---**
Can I...?
**[06:55] ---**
No. I *will* succeed.
**[06:58] ---**
I'll win England back from them.
**[07:00] ---**
Hey. You there.
**[07:03] ---**
They're in a carriage. Outrun them.
**[07:20] ---**
Well?
**[07:21] ---**
Nothing unusual.
**[07:23] ---**
But I hear that group from
earlier is at a nearby inn.
**[07:28] ---**
We'll lodge here for the night.
**[07:30] ---**
Investigate them just
in case, and be careful.
**[07:34] ---**
This is holy ground.
**[07:36] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[07:37] ---**
Remove your weapons and join me in prayer.
**[07:42] ---**
No matter where I run,
death and bloodshed follow me.
**[07:48] ---**
Your Majesty, you mustn't
listen to his honeyed words.
**[07:51] ---**
He schemes to bend
Your Majesty to his will.
**[07:54] ---**
--It's treachery.
--It's treason, Your Majesty.
**[07:56] ---**
--Command us.
--Order us.
**[07:57] ---**
--Your Majesty.
--Your Majesty!
**[07:59] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[08:03] ---**
Please, take me somewhere far away,
**[08:07] ---**
to a truly free world,
kind and filled with love.
**[08:13] ---**
Richard.
**[08:18] ---**
Another infiltration, then?
**[08:20] ---**
That was a crisis,
and we had a collaborator.
**[08:24] ---**
Even if we do, we'll need more--
**[08:27] ---**
Your meals are ready, my good sirs.
**[08:30] ---**
Did you order food?
**[08:31] ---**
I serve all my guests a light meal.
You have the place to yourselves today!
**[08:35] ---**
Now please, come downstairs.
**[08:51] ---**
Hey.
**[08:53] ---**
We've changed our minds.
Bring our meals to this room.
**[08:56] ---**
Yes, sir. Right away.
**[08:59] ---**
Honestly. We can't even
eat in peace like this.
**[09:03] ---**
Shall we change inns?
**[09:06] ---**
No.
**[09:08] ---**
I'm sure of it.
**[09:09] ---**
So, that group we saw
*were* Yorkist remnants.
**[09:13] ---**
That flag you say you saw proves it.
**[09:18] ---**
Outside!
**[09:19] ---**
I'll follow you!
**[09:21] ---**
Wait!
**[09:23] ---**
Yorkist dregs!
Have you come for his life?!
**[09:27] ---**
Who?
**[09:28] ---**
I won't let you!
**[09:36] ---**
A Lancastrian noble?
He seemed like a man of some status.
**[09:40] ---**
What is he doing here?
**[09:45] ---**
Henry?
**[09:47] ---**
Richard.
**[09:50] ---**
Where did he go?!
**[09:51] ---**
Find him!
**[09:52] ---**
Come on!
**[09:55] ---**
Richard...
**[09:56] ---**
Richard!
**[09:58] ---**
What are you doing here?
**[10:00] ---**
Richard, you're hurt!
**[10:02] ---**
This isn't...
**[10:09] ---**
...my blood...
**[10:11] ---**
Richard!
**[10:15] ---**
Mr. Catesby, sir!
**[10:17] ---**
Explanations can wait. Let's go.
**[10:21] ---**
Edward.
**[10:22] ---**
You took this lovely maiden's hand
**[10:26] ---**
and made a firm vow to make
her your wife, did you not?
**[10:30] ---**
Yes, Mother. I gladly made her my wife.
**[10:34] ---**
If that's so, why haven't you
consummated your marriage yet?
**[10:40] ---**
W-Well...
**[10:41] ---**
There are any number of ways
to put someone in the mood.
**[10:45] ---**
M-Mother.
**[10:48] ---**
Do it tonight. Is that clear?
**[10:53] ---**
Do your duty. Love is not necessary.
**[11:11] ---**
I know everything.
**[11:15] ---**
You... had feelings
for Richard, didn't you?
**[11:21] ---**
I did.
**[11:23] ---**
This isn't only hard on you, you know!
**[11:25] ---**
I was in love with a woman myself!
**[11:27] ---**
If your feelings still persist, then--
**[11:30] ---**
No. I've already rid myself of them.
**[11:33] ---**
Is that all?
**[11:36] ---**
Was your love so easily discarded?
**[11:40] ---**
Unbelievable.
**[11:42] ---**
My feelings are nothing like yours.
**[11:45] ---**
I swore an oath to God
that I would have her.
**[11:50] ---**
That I'd let nothing stop me.
**[11:53] ---**
--Not even--
--You have no idea!
**[11:55] ---**
You can't imagine how deeply
I cared for Duke Richard!
**[11:59] ---**
Your feelings don't amount
to much! I can tell!
**[12:02] ---**
--You couldn't!
--I do!
**[12:05] ---**
I love Richard far more than you do!
**[12:11] ---**
God...
**[12:13] ---**
...would never allow such a thing.
I mean--
**[12:16] ---**
It's your love He won't allow.
**[12:19] ---**
If you still have regrets, I'll tell you:
**[12:21] ---**
Richard...
**[12:23] ---**
...is actually a woman.
**[12:26] ---**
She normally dresses as a man
and lives hiding her true sex.
**[12:32] ---**
Please be serious.
**[12:35] ---**
It's a lie.
**[12:36] ---**
I know that Duke Richard is as
slender and pretty as a woman, but...
**[12:41] ---**
Still,
**[12:42] ---**
he did always seem to be
hiding something deep in his heart.
**[12:47] ---**
Got that? No matter how
deeply you love Richard,
**[12:51] ---**
as long as you're a woman,
she'll never requite your feelings.
**[13:05] ---**
Are you all right, Richard?
**[13:09] ---**
Henry.
**[13:11] ---**
Are there any yarrow leaves near here?
**[13:14] ---**
They're jagged leaves on a tall plant.
**[13:17] ---**
I understand. Wait for me!
**[13:24] ---**
It will take a deeper
wound than this to kill me.
**[13:28] ---**
I need to rejoin Catesby
and the others soon.
**[13:32] ---**
Richard, are you at death's door?
**[13:36] ---**
Die!
**[13:39] ---**
Vanish alone, deep in the forest.
**[13:42] ---**
No one will save you.
**[13:45] ---**
No one will mourn a demon's death.
**[13:48] ---**
In the end, you're all alone.
**[13:52] ---**
Until the very end!
**[14:01] ---**
Richard.
**[14:06] ---**
We've come to punish you.
**[14:09] ---**
To punish you for surviving.
**[14:11] ---**
To punish you for being born.
**[14:13] ---**
Back then...
**[14:16] ---**
You should have died!
**[14:23] ---**
Begone, demon!
**[14:26] ---**
Henry.
**[14:29] ---**
O Lord, protect him.
**[14:32] ---**
If you must take a life,
at least make it mine.
**[14:42] ---**
Could you see the demons?
**[14:50] ---**
Wolves are demons given flesh.
**[14:53] ---**
The Lord God saved us.
**[14:57] ---**
I thought... I thought that I
would never see you again.
**[15:03] ---**
I thought I *shouldn't* see you again.
**[15:06] ---**
And yet...
**[15:09] ---**
I've missed you all this time.
**[15:12] ---**
I longed to see you, Richard.
**[15:15] ---**
I'm truly, truly glad.
**[15:22] ---**
Duke Richard.
**[15:24] ---**
No animals will come here.
I found it earlier.
**[15:30] ---**
Aren't you cold?
**[15:33] ---**
Henry... You're warm.
**[15:54] ---**
It wasn't a dream.
**[16:00] ---**
Richard. I'm so glad.
**[16:03] ---**
It wasn't a dream.
**[16:05] ---**
I'm sorry! Your wound...
**[16:08] ---**
I'll pick fresh leaves for you.
**[16:11] ---**
Wait.
**[16:12] ---**
Richard?
**[16:15] ---**
It's nothing.
**[16:18] ---**
Why am I so fainthearted?
**[16:20] ---**
I'll be right back.
**[16:23] ---**
I can't afford to die.
**[16:25] ---**
Not until England belongs
to the House of York again.
**[16:30] ---**
But if I fail to convince George,
I might be killed on the spot.
**[16:37] ---**
Hurry back, Henry.
**[16:43] ---**
So, they did flee on horseback.
**[16:45] ---**
Do you think the king is safe?
**[16:48] ---**
The king? Henry should be in the Tower
of London. What would bring him here?
**[16:54] ---**
But Duke Richard matters more now.
**[17:00] ---**
Richard!
**[17:03] ---**
If it hurts, drink this.
**[17:05] ---**
I found a spring, but I had
nothing to carry water in.
**[17:09] ---**
This is fine.
**[17:12] ---**
Stay here. I'll leave as soon as I'm well.
**[17:19] ---**
When I look up at the sky,
I remember the first time I met you.
**[17:25] ---**
You never change, do you?
**[17:28] ---**
I often dream of my mother abandoning me.
**[17:32] ---**
Do you still have nightmares?
**[17:36] ---**
The world stays just the same,
**[17:39] ---**
but my beautiful memories
with you purify me.
**[17:45] ---**
They beautify the world.
**[17:53] ---**
Even alone, it wasn't frightening.
**[17:56] ---**
Rather... the loneliness has been
kind ever since losing Father.
**[18:02] ---**
That's why I swore to never waver again.
**[18:07] ---**
And yet...
**[18:12] ---**
You weaken me.
**[18:19] ---**
Should you be moving?
**[18:21] ---**
I'll starve if I leave everything to you.
**[18:24] ---**
You mentioned a spring?
**[18:26] ---**
Yes. I marked a trail there.
**[18:29] ---**
Well done. I'll fetch water today.
**[18:33] ---**
You'll go alone?
**[18:34] ---**
Gather branches and wait for me.
**[18:42] ---**
So many signs. Is he a child?
**[18:47] ---**
No one will see me here.
**[19:03] ---**
Should you be in the water?
**[19:06] ---**
I'm fine! I'm just washing out the blood.
**[19:08] ---**
What if you collapsed? I'll help you.
**[19:12] ---**
Stay back.
**[19:18] ---**
If you come near me now...
**[19:21] ---**
...you'll see this body of mine.
**[19:25] ---**
Richard.
**[19:28] ---**
You're bloodstained.
**[19:32] ---**
You're all clean now, Richard.
**[19:35] ---**
You're truly... spotless.
**[19:42] ---**
Oh, my.
**[19:43] ---**
What a surprise. Someone beat us here.
**[19:46] ---**
I'll get out first, Henry.
**[19:50] ---**
I haven't seen you around.
**[19:52] ---**
Village girls? I'm in luck.
**[19:55] ---**
If I dress now, then...
**[19:57] ---**
Oh, my. What a lovely
face you've got, mister.
**[20:01] ---**
This is our secret paradise.
**[20:06] ---**
Tell you what. For you,
**[20:09] ---**
I'll make it free.
**[20:13] ---**
What?!
**[20:15] ---**
Hey! Henry!
**[20:20] ---**
Mother. Mother.
**[20:24] ---**
Mother?
**[20:26] ---**
How wicked of you.
Henry can see us, you know.
**[20:30] ---**
It's fine. He's still a child.
**[20:34] ---**
You're the only one I truly love.
**[20:37] ---**
Let's leave all the rest to Henry and
spend every day together like this.
**[20:42] ---**
You're a demon. The loveliest
and most lascivious there is.
**[20:46] ---**
You're right; I am a demon.
**[20:48] ---**
A demon of love.
**[20:52] ---**
My mother's infidelity and betrayal
never stopped haunting me.
**[20:59] ---**
It was like a curse.
**[21:01] ---**
And that's why you fear them?
**[21:03] ---**
You see women as demons?
**[21:06] ---**
No. It's not women that I fear.
**[21:10] ---**
What frightens me is...
**[21:13] ---**
...desire.
**[21:15] ---**
Love--lust--is a sin.
**[21:18] ---**
I'm in pain, but why?
**[21:21] ---**
I won't love anyone.
**[21:24] ---**
Why does it hurt?
**[21:26] ---**
I don't need anyone to love if I have
a friend I can trust with all my heart.
**[21:32] ---**
I'm not a woman, and yet...
**[21:38] ---**
You're my angel, Richard.
**[21:44] ---**
I love Henry.

**[00:04] ---**
You're my angel, Richard.
**[00:11] ---**
If...
**[00:12] ---**
If I stay with you, we won't
be able to remain friends.
**[00:18] ---**
How shallow I am.
**[00:20] ---**
The moment I realize I love him,
I desire his love in return.
**[00:24] ---**
What's wrong?
**[00:26] ---**
You'll be cold on your own, Richard.
**[00:35] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[00:37] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[00:40] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[00:46] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:27] ---**
Henry seems to have fled
while on a pilgrimage.
**[02:30] ---**
You've seen his face,
have you not, Mr. Catesby?
**[02:33] ---**
If we managed to capture him, then--
**[02:35] ---**
Saving His Grace takes priority!
**[02:39] ---**
Give the places we've
already checked another look.
**[02:42] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[02:49] ---**
What's this?
**[03:01] ---**
It can't be.
**[03:02] ---**
No, I'm sure of it. That man is...
**[03:05] ---**
Henry.
**[03:06] ---**
Your Grace!
**[03:10] ---**
Catesby.
**[03:11] ---**
Wait; he's not our enemy.
**[03:15] ---**
I was too injured to move for a time,
and this man saved me.
**[03:21] ---**
But that man is--
**[03:24] ---**
My friend.
**[03:26] ---**
Catesby, wait a moment.
**[03:34] ---**
He's an old acquaintance of mine.
**[03:37] ---**
He came to take me away.
**[03:39] ---**
No!
**[03:41] ---**
I told you that I would leave
as soon as I was well.
**[03:45] ---**
There are things that I must do.
**[03:48] ---**
Winning George to our cause
and annihilating Lancaster.
**[03:53] ---**
And... And when you've done them?
**[03:55] ---**
Can we be together always then?
**[03:59] ---**
Once the war is over,
there will be no place for me.
**[04:04] ---**
Let's promise to meet
again under that tree.
**[04:09] ---**
I'll always be waiting for you here.
**[04:14] ---**
Very well.
**[04:16] ---**
You have my word.
**[04:20] ---**
I'm certain it will all be over
by this time next year.
**[04:25] ---**
Then we'll meet here in a year's time.
**[04:29] ---**
It's a promise, Richard.
**[04:32] ---**
A promise.
**[04:39] ---**
Your Grace, who was that man?
**[04:42] ---**
I don't know his past, although
he said he was a shepherd.
**[04:48] ---**
Catesby, have you ever loved someone?
**[04:53] ---**
If your love could never be requited,
**[04:57] ---**
would you still want to be with them?
**[05:00] ---**
To stay beside them forever,
unable to tell them how you feel?
**[05:11] ---**
What should I do now?
**[05:13] ---**
In George's eyes, I'm a traitor. What hope
do I have in a straightforward talk?
**[05:28] ---**
I remember when Christmas was approaching.
**[05:32] ---**
The time when I lost Father.
**[05:37] ---**
George can't have forgotten either.
**[05:45] ---**
What's this about?!
**[05:47] ---**
Duke George.
**[05:48] ---**
Why, if it isn't Your Grace!
**[05:51] ---**
Please believe me! I really saw him!
**[05:54] ---**
He's merely a lying drunk, sir.
**[05:56] ---**
Nonsense! I saw him with my own two eyes!
**[06:00] ---**
Saw who?
**[06:02] ---**
A ghost with long hair.
**[06:05] ---**
He glides along the castle walls
like this, glowing the whole time.
**[06:13] ---**
Huh? I could swear I see
him behind Your Grace.
**[06:17] ---**
Here's sixpence. Now go home.
**[06:22] ---**
Take care, sir.
Spirits are stronger this time of year.
**[06:29] ---**
If anything's haunting me, it's no ghost.
**[06:34] ---**
It's...
**[06:36] ---**
What's the matter?
**[06:39] ---**
The banquet is about to start.
**[06:42] ---**
Now for the best part!
**[06:43] ---**
Let's choose tonight's "king"!
**[06:46] ---**
If there's a bean in your cake,
you're king!
**[06:49] ---**
Who's the lucky winner?
**[06:51] ---**
Why, it's Lord Warwick!
**[06:53] ---**
The throne is yours, Your Majesty.
**[06:55] ---**
I suppose I've no choice.
**[06:59] ---**
That should have been my seat.
**[07:02] ---**
Why is Warwick sitting on that throne?
**[07:06] ---**
No. Henry is king, and the Lancastrian
prince will succeed him.
**[07:11] ---**
Where did I go wrong?
**[07:13] ---**
Now, Your Majesty, I shall summon
the actors for the masque.
**[07:17] ---**
I was meant to be the king's nearest
brother and his heir apparent.
**[07:22] ---**
Your Grace, the attendees wish to
present you with this splendid wine.
**[07:26] ---**
Bring me all you have; I'll drink all
the wine in the castle dry!
**[07:31] ---**
I am the lawful King of England!
**[07:36] ---**
Where is he? Where is my son?
**[07:40] ---**
Father!
**[07:45] ---**
Father, I pledge my life to
the battle for your crown!
**[07:51] ---**
Will you join me, George?
**[07:53] ---**
I will! I swear it, Father!
**[07:58] ---**
Your Grace, a breath of fresh air
might do you good.
**[08:04] ---**
Oh, yes.
**[08:06] ---**
You've had a bit too much to drink.
**[08:11] ---**
I guess I got in the way of your party.
**[08:16] ---**
I can leave without Your Majesty's help.
**[08:27] ---**
Did I... Did I make the wrong choice?
**[08:30] ---**
Even if I did, it's too late now.
**[08:36] ---**
An actor from the masque?
**[08:41] ---**
George.
**[08:44] ---**
My son.
**[08:46] ---**
George, where is my crown?
**[08:51] ---**
Will a son of York dye
the white rose with blood?
**[08:55] ---**
I-Impossible.
**[08:58] ---**
No, it can't be you.
**[09:00] ---**
George, sully not the spirit of York!
**[09:04] ---**
Do so, and you will
receive your just deserts!
**[09:08] ---**
Come. Place the crown in my hands.
**[09:12] ---**
Stop, Father!
**[09:28] ---**
A virtuoso performance, Catesby.
**[09:31] ---**
You were the spitting image of my father.
**[09:35] ---**
Continue spreading rumors of the ghost.
**[09:39] ---**
Give George a glimpse of our
father at every opportunity.
**[09:44] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[09:45] ---**
The more pressure we apply,
the more effective that flag will prove.
**[09:51] ---**
George is simple. This will move
him more than any argument.
**[09:56] ---**
It means making my father's
ghost our tool,
**[09:59] ---**
but all of this is to avenge his death.
**[10:02] ---**
You're determined to defeat Lancaster?
To defeat Henry?
**[10:06] ---**
Naturally. He murdered my father.
**[10:10] ---**
I won't let him off with
the Tower next time.
**[10:13] ---**
I swear that I'll slay him
on the battlefield.
**[10:17] ---**
My Lord!
**[10:18] ---**
I bring news!
Edward has set sail for England
**[10:22] ---**
with the support of Burgundy!
**[10:26] ---**
Just you wait, Warwick.
**[10:28] ---**
I'm going to rouse a tempest.
**[10:32] ---**
It will rage until a golden
crown gleams upon my brow!
**[10:40] ---**
What is your command, My Lord?!
**[10:42] ---**
Do you honestly believe that the King
of France has taken no measures?
**[10:46] ---**
Full speed ahead!
**[10:48] ---**
Sail for our England's sake, even if
the storm winds would deny us!
**[10:58] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[10:59] ---**
I wondered where you'd gone.
**[11:01] ---**
Please come inside. You'll take ill.
**[11:05] ---**
I'll remain here. I will not go to war.
**[11:09] ---**
That's for the best.
**[11:12] ---**
We shall speedily apprehend the Yorkist
nobles and gather loyal forces to--
**[11:17] ---**
Don't kill them!
**[11:19] ---**
I've had my fill of war.
**[11:21] ---**
Overawe them with a massive
army and drive them off.
**[11:26] ---**
The war will end if we stamp out our foes.
**[11:30] ---**
Now, gentlemen, take leave of His Majesty.
**[11:33] ---**
Farewell, my sovereign.
**[11:35] ---**
Farewell, Your Majesty.
**[11:38] ---**
By Your Majesty's leave.
**[11:41] ---**
Allow me to kiss Your Majesty's hand
**[11:45] ---**
as proof of my loyalty.
**[11:51] ---**
Virtuous George,
**[11:54] ---**
may God be with you.
**[11:59] ---**
The war will end?
**[12:02] ---**
Even if the body withers, the soul--
the spirit of vengeance--will endure.
**[12:14] ---**
You know I'm not going to try anything.
**[12:17] ---**
This is to fool my mother.
**[12:23] ---**
I'm disappointed in you, Edward.
**[12:25] ---**
Mother! You see, um--
**[12:26] ---**
Even Henry did his duty as a man.
**[12:30] ---**
Is your courage less than his?
**[12:32] ---**
O-Of course not!
**[12:34] ---**
No, it must be.
**[12:37] ---**
You're less of a man than Henry is.
**[12:41] ---**
You're wrong. That can't be true.
**[12:47] ---**
Then prove it to me here and now.
**[12:52] ---**
In your mother's presence.
**[12:56] ---**
A king must perform before
far more subjects than this.
**[13:00] ---**
If this is beyond you,
then you are unfit for the crown.
**[13:05] ---**
You understand, don't you, Anne?
**[13:09] ---**
No matter how deeply you love Richard,
**[13:12] ---**
as long as you're a woman,
she'll never requite your feelings.
**[13:22] ---**
Don't you mind?
**[13:25] ---**
I'm your wife.
**[13:29] ---**
Duke Richard will never smile on me again.
**[13:36] ---**
Your wife has more resolve than you.
It's like looking at Henry and me.
**[13:40] ---**
Silence!
**[13:43] ---**
I'm not like my father!
**[13:45] ---**
And inferior to him?
I could never be that!
**[13:49] ---**
Watch, Mother! I'll prove that
I'm a man to be proud of!
**[14:01] ---**
Wait.
**[14:03] ---**
I'll be your wife,
but promise me one thing.
**[14:08] ---**
If you capture Duke Richard
in battle, don't kill him.
**[14:14] ---**
That was already my intention.
**[14:25] ---**
We're having no difficulties
raising an army.
**[14:28] ---**
Yes, my lord. And Queen
Margaret's fleet should soon arrive.
**[14:34] ---**
Once her reinforcements swell our ranks,
**[14:37] ---**
the sham army Edward borrowed from
foreign powers will be no match for us.
**[14:43] ---**
My Lord, who shall
welcome Queen Margaret--
**[14:45] ---**
I've already sent someone.
**[14:50] ---**
The most trustworthy man I have.
**[14:57] ---**
Well done, Richard. I must thank
God for our safe reunion.
**[15:02] ---**
Edward, are these all of our forces?
**[15:07] ---**
I doubt that this will be
enough to win in battle.
**[15:11] ---**
That's why I sent you.
**[15:14] ---**
Unless George returns to us...
**[15:19] ---**
...then this is where Edward must fall.
**[15:30] ---**
George.
**[15:32] ---**
Traitor! Have you forgotten that
my sister is the true queen?!
**[15:36] ---**
How could you forsake your
own brother for Henry?!
**[15:39] ---**
Be silent, Anthony.
**[15:42] ---**
Answer me, George. Who do you serve?
**[15:47] ---**
I serve the King of England.
Isn't that obvious?
**[15:52] ---**
George, I am bound for York
as merely the Duke of York.
**[15:58] ---**
I have no other motive. Let me pass.
**[16:01] ---**
That I cannot do.
**[16:05] ---**
Brother, I came here to serve a king!
**[16:10] ---**
Not a duke!
**[16:13] ---**
The House of York is the house of our
father, who shed his blood for England.
**[16:19] ---**
I cannot bring it to ruin.
**[16:21] ---**
Edward, proclaim yourself king at once!
**[16:25] ---**
This time, I will be your subject!
**[16:30] ---**
George!
**[16:32] ---**
My brother!
**[16:35] ---**
You are ten times dearer to me
now than when we parted.
**[16:38] ---**
Dearer than when I harbored
not a drop of hatred for you.
**[16:43] ---**
E-Edward.
**[16:46] ---**
Warwick and his allies are
raising troops everywhere.
**[16:50] ---**
We'll slip between them and
reach London before they do.
**[16:54] ---**
They've left Henry alone in the palace.
**[16:57] ---**
Once we get inside, he's ours.
**[17:00] ---**
Henry!
**[17:05] ---**
We're bound for London?
**[17:07] ---**
We plan to head south after
raising troops in York.
**[17:11] ---**
More should flock to our banner
now that George has joined us.
**[17:16] ---**
Your Grace.
**[17:19] ---**
Please allow me to see to Henry.
**[17:22] ---**
What do you mean?
**[17:24] ---**
If you were to--
**[17:25] ---**
Mr. Catesby!
**[17:27] ---**
Lord Hastings summons you.
**[17:30] ---**
Return to your master.
Your mission with me is over.
**[17:37] ---**
With my own hands...
**[17:39] ---**
My name is Edward Plantagenet,
and I am the rightful King of England!
**[17:45] ---**
--...I'll take vengeance on
Henry for Father's death!
--Now, onward, brave soldiers!
**[17:54] ---**
So, you came to see me.
**[17:56] ---**
Please tell me: have I been a bad king?
**[18:03] ---**
I never turned a deaf ear
to my people's pleas.
**[18:09] ---**
I never deprived them of their
wealth or made them suffer.
**[18:15] ---**
I...
**[18:16] ---**
I never wanted to be king.
**[18:23] ---**
Do you want to go outside?
**[18:25] ---**
Of course you do; it's a lovely day.
**[18:29] ---**
Once it gets a little warmer,
so many flowers will bloom.
**[18:33] ---**
Then summer will come.
**[18:36] ---**
Trees will bear fruit and
their leaves will fall.
**[18:40] ---**
And then, I'll be able...
**[18:46] ---**
I'll be able to see you again.
**[18:50] ---**
Henry!
**[18:52] ---**
Where are you?!
**[18:57] ---**
Richard?
**[18:59] ---**
Buckingham! Where is King Henry?!
**[19:01] ---**
How should I know?
**[19:03] ---**
Warwick had me locked up
until mere moments ago.
**[19:10] ---**
Wait! Are you planning to kill Henry?!
**[19:16] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[19:17] ---**
Please flee! The Yorkists have
invaded to take you prisoner!
**[19:23] ---**
If I'm captured now,
I'll never see Richard again.
**[19:29] ---**
Hurry! The confusion will mask
your escape if you go now!
**[19:36] ---**
What of Henry?!
**[19:37] ---**
We've searched the house,
but he's not here.
**[19:40] ---**
Search all of London!
**[19:42] ---**
I'll reward whoever finds him!
**[19:45] ---**
It wouldn't be wise to kill Henry now.
**[19:48] ---**
Rash actions will cost you
your brother's trust.
**[19:54] ---**
You speak like a loyal subject.
**[19:59] ---**
Look at that.
**[20:02] ---**
Edward.
**[20:03] ---**
Elizabeth!
**[20:09] ---**
I'm so glad you're safe.
**[20:12] ---**
I'm sorry for my delay.
**[20:13] ---**
Edward, this is your son.
**[20:19] ---**
O Lord!
**[20:23] ---**
Bless this boy!
**[20:25] ---**
His heir is born,
and his brother returned.
**[20:29] ---**
Even if Edward were to die now, the throne
would not be yours immediately.
**[20:34] ---**
When did I wish for the throne?
**[20:38] ---**
It's high time you were honest.
**[20:40] ---**
I refuse to believe that my words
have never once moved you.
**[20:51] ---**
I'll always be waiting for you here.
**[21:00] ---**
I'll annihilate Lancaster
and avenge my father.
**[21:04] ---**
Then, it will all be over.
**[21:07] ---**
Once there are no more
battlefields, I'll be--
**[21:10] ---**
I thought you were like me--
smoldering with constrained ambition.
**[21:18] ---**
It appears I was mistaken.
**[21:22] ---**
How did they avoid our notice?
**[21:25] ---**
We were supposed to have them
hemmed in. What is George doing?!
**[21:31] ---**
Well, no matter. Edward can
take London or kill Henry,
**[21:37] ---**
but he can't change the fact
that our forces outnumber his.
**[21:42] ---**
Edward, I promise that I'll
take your head myself!

**[00:07] ---**
What do you think, Anne?
**[00:09] ---**
Won't my heroic figure impress her?
**[00:15] ---**
What do you like about Duke Richard?
**[00:20] ---**
Good question.
**[00:22] ---**
I like how strong-willed she is,
and she has a charming face as well.
**[00:26] ---**
But you're enemies.
**[00:28] ---**
Enemy or not, she can
be mine if I become king.
**[00:32] ---**
Also, she never pays attention to me.
**[00:36] ---**
I like that about her.
**[00:39] ---**
Do you, um...
**[00:42] ---**
Do you resent your father for
things turning out this way?
**[00:47] ---**
I don't resent him.
**[00:50] ---**
This is all fate, dictated by God.
**[00:55] ---**
God, God, God!
**[00:58] ---**
Don't put your trust in God!
To hell with any fate decided for you!
**[01:02] ---**
Take what you want with your own strength!
**[01:05] ---**
You can't have Richard, though.
**[01:11] ---**
That's a surprise, coming from you.
**[01:14] ---**
Why do you laugh?
**[01:16] ---**
But women are best when
they're cheerful. That's for certain.
**[01:20] ---**
Edward.
**[01:21] ---**
We may not be able to love each other,
but I'm sure we can be friends.
**[01:28] ---**
Friends...
**[01:30] ---**
Say, would you mind playing chess with me?
**[01:34] ---**
I'm really hopeless at embroidery.
**[01:40] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:42] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:45] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:51] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:37] ---**
The mist has thickened.
**[03:41] ---**
This is the end.
**[03:43] ---**
I *will* avenge father's death
on Lancaster in this battle!
**[03:50] ---**
King Edward!
**[03:56] ---**
Not so much as a flourish
of trumpets. What an insult!
**[04:02] ---**
Warwick.
**[04:04] ---**
It appears you've lost your way.
**[04:07] ---**
You're the one who's lost.
**[04:10] ---**
Do you intend to challenge us
with such a paltry force?
**[04:13] ---**
You don't know how to treat ambassadors,
**[04:16] ---**
you aren't content with one woman,
**[04:18] ---**
and you can't even contrive
to defend yourself!
**[04:21] ---**
How can a man like you shoulder
the burden of a kingdom?!
**[04:25] ---**
Even your own brother forsook you!
**[04:29] ---**
Look, Edward.
**[04:31] ---**
The brother who abandoned you has come,
leading an army to rival your own!
**[04:38] ---**
You're late. Did Margaret's
forces arrive in time?
**[04:54] ---**
Did you think my brother
cold enough to turn his blade
**[04:58] ---**
against his own blood and rightful king?
**[05:01] ---**
Hear me, Warwick!
**[05:03] ---**
I've repented my infidelity,
and to regain my brother's trust,
**[05:07] ---**
I hereby denounce you as my mortal foe!
**[05:11] ---**
Now our forces are evenly matched!
**[05:13] ---**
I'll return the wound you gave
my heart a hundred-fold!
**[05:17] ---**
You'll pay for this.
**[05:19] ---**
Traitor!
**[05:24] ---**
If Henry made good his escape
from London, he could be in that army.
**[05:29] ---**
Charge!
**[05:37] ---**
How are we supposed to fight in this mist?
**[05:40] ---**
Follow me!
**[05:43] ---**
I can see! I can see the
red blood of Lancaster!
**[05:54] ---**
Your Majesty, until the battle is decided,
**[05:57] ---**
I suggest you remain concealed
away from Warwick's host.
**[06:02] ---**
O Lord.
**[06:05] ---**
May victory favor whoever you will.
**[06:09] ---**
No. I don't wish for
anyone to come to harm.
**[06:13] ---**
Not a soul.
**[06:15] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[06:16] ---**
I...
**[06:17] ---**
I've always believed that
my heart was with my people.
**[06:23] ---**
But I kept averting my gaze from reality--
from everyone's pain.
**[06:29] ---**
I must witness it with my
own eyes, close at hand.
**[06:33] ---**
As king, I must see its end.
**[06:46] ---**
Duke Richard!
**[06:48] ---**
In this mist, we risk...
**[06:50] ---**
Richard!
**[06:52] ---**
If we attack each other
by mistake in this mist,
**[06:56] ---**
fear and suspicion could lead to a rout.
**[07:00] ---**
Buckingham.
**[07:02] ---**
You'll halt the soldiers
here as "Richard."
**[07:06] ---**
What?!
**[07:08] ---**
Listen. From now on, this man is me.
**[07:11] ---**
Assist the duke.
**[07:13] ---**
Y-Yes, sir!
**[07:14] ---**
Wait, Richard!
**[07:15] ---**
Are you going to charge in alone?
**[07:18] ---**
Not alone. I'll have comrades.
**[07:21] ---**
What comrades?
**[07:24] ---**
Our forces are evenly matched,
**[07:27] ---**
but they'll be reinforced
if the battle drags on.
**[07:32] ---**
Edward, I'll join the battle
alongside Richard and his men.
**[07:36] ---**
George, if you slay Warwick,
Isabelle will never...
**[07:39] ---**
But...
**[07:42] ---**
Remain at my side.
I'll strike down Warwick.
**[07:49] ---**
We just need some blow to turn the tide.
**[07:56] ---**
Warwick's banner.
**[07:58] ---**
The main Lancastrian force
must be that way.
**[08:11] ---**
You there.
**[08:12] ---**
Follow me!
**[08:14] ---**
There's the enemy line!
They haven't noticed us in the mist!
**[08:18] ---**
We can take them by surprise!
**[08:20] ---**
I'm off to win glory!
Any cowards can stay here!
**[08:23] ---**
--Wait for me!
--Let's go!
**[08:25] ---**
I'll join you!
**[08:26] ---**
Don't miss this opportunity!
**[08:28] ---**
Follow me, Lancastrian soldiers.
**[08:35] ---**
Allies?
**[08:38] ---**
Slay the foe!
**[08:43] ---**
Shatter Lancaster!
**[08:45] ---**
My lord earl!
**[08:47] ---**
The rear of our main line
has suddenly collapsed!
**[08:50] ---**
What?! Has the enemy been reinforced?!
**[08:53] ---**
No, my lord. It seems that...
our own men are fighting each other.
**[09:00] ---**
They're fighting each other?
That's pleasant news.
**[09:03] ---**
I knew that heaven was on our side!
**[09:06] ---**
Gentlemen! Victory is within our grasp!
**[09:08] ---**
Let us crush them in a single blow!
**[09:12] ---**
Advance!
**[09:13] ---**
Charge!
**[09:21] ---**
This infernal mist!
**[09:36] ---**
Impossible.
**[09:37] ---**
Warwick!
**[09:38] ---**
Did you not swear to make me king?!
**[09:42] ---**
No. No.
**[09:44] ---**
You must understand, I...
**[09:46] ---**
You defiled my spirit!
**[09:49] ---**
No, I gave you everything.
**[09:53] ---**
I gave it all to make you king!
**[09:55] ---**
Yes! I am your king!
**[10:00] ---**
Warwick!
**[10:02] ---**
Edward!
**[10:05] ---**
How I loathe your face.
**[10:07] ---**
It's you who defiled your father's spirit!
**[10:10] ---**
Edward!
**[10:11] ---**
Don't interfere! This man's life is mine!
**[10:15] ---**
A duel between us?
**[10:17] ---**
Have you forgotten that I taught
you swordsmanship as a child?
**[10:29] ---**
The sun will set soon, Edward.
**[10:32] ---**
I knew that you were strong, Warwick.
**[10:35] ---**
I can't let you defeat me yet.
**[10:37] ---**
Still, you have talent.
Perhaps it runs in your blood.
**[10:43] ---**
He'll soon surpass me.
**[10:52] ---**
Warwick.
**[10:53] ---**
If I fall in the course of our endeavor,
**[10:58] ---**
please, place Edward on the throne.
**[11:04] ---**
Swear it to me.
**[11:06] ---**
Swear that York will have the crown.
**[11:18] ---**
Now!
**[11:20] ---**
Warwick!
**[11:25] ---**
My lord! Please escape!
**[11:26] ---**
Our army will collapse if this goes on!
**[11:29] ---**
We should fall back and regroup!
**[11:32] ---**
He fled! Pursue him!
**[11:34] ---**
Wait!
**[11:35] ---**
You must... You must take him alive.
**[11:39] ---**
Do not kill him.
**[11:42] ---**
Damn!
**[11:43] ---**
I refuse to let this be the end!
**[11:45] ---**
I've bent all of England to my will!
**[11:49] ---**
If we join with Margaret's army,
we can fight again at once!
**[11:53] ---**
The crown...
**[11:55] ---**
The crown is still in my hands!
**[12:11] ---**
Warwick, your time is over.
**[12:15] ---**
From now on, I am...
**[12:17] ---**
...the kingmaker.
**[12:21] ---**
Warwick!
**[12:22] ---**
Who struck him?!
**[12:24] ---**
Seize and behead his killer at once!
**[12:26] ---**
Warwick. Oh, my sorrowful shadow.
**[12:31] ---**
If you die, my darkness dies with you.
**[12:37] ---**
A-Are you there?
**[12:41] ---**
Is someone...?
**[12:44] ---**
So, Death has veiled your eyes.
**[12:47] ---**
Don't you recognize your mortal foe?
**[12:50] ---**
It's strange.
**[12:52] ---**
Now that I know I'll lose you,
I remember only the beautiful times.
**[12:57] ---**
Oh, so even glory is worthless now.
**[13:01] ---**
My hands are empty, and my body
will soon sink into the earth.
**[13:08] ---**
Nothing remains to me.
**[13:15] ---**
Long live His Majesty!
**[13:18] ---**
Look. The young new king is here.
**[13:29] ---**
How dignified and handsome he is.
**[13:32] ---**
Father, is that King Henry VI?
**[13:36] ---**
Why, that's Richard Plantagenet,
Duke of York.
**[13:40] ---**
King Henry is over there.
**[13:47] ---**
That's the king?
**[13:49] ---**
The Duke of York looks
far statelier and more regal.
**[13:56] ---**
Oh, how beautiful would he look
**[14:00] ---**
with a crown upon his head?
**[14:15] ---**
I will hold back your departing soul.
**[14:19] ---**
Do not die by any hand but mine.
**[14:23] ---**
I am your king.
**[14:28] ---**
My...
**[14:30] ---**
My king?
**[14:33] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[14:36] ---**
Let us meet again... before the Lord God.
**[14:51] ---**
What's wrong?
**[14:52] ---**
You can follow us in a carriage, you know.
**[14:55] ---**
I'll be fine. I'm anxious to
find out how the war is going.
**[15:00] ---**
The outcome is obvious.
**[15:02] ---**
By the time we arrive, your father
will be toasting our victory
**[15:07] ---**
with a goblet of Yorkist blood.
**[15:09] ---**
Father would never harm the House of York!
**[15:14] ---**
He's really the most
compassionate person there is.
**[15:19] ---**
Oh, I don't think that Warwick
will kill the York brothers.
**[15:24] ---**
He's a reasonable man at heart.
**[15:28] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[15:31] ---**
But I'm frightened.
**[15:34] ---**
I feel like this battle will change
my heart, no matter what happens.
**[15:42] ---**
Rest easy.
**[15:45] ---**
Whatever happens, you'll still be my wife.
**[15:50] ---**
I'm not like my father!
I'm a man who protects his family!
**[15:55] ---**
So, just pray for a
Lancastrian victory for now.
**[15:59] ---**
You're a member of the House of Lancaster.
**[16:03] ---**
You're right. I'm not a Neville anymore.
**[16:07] ---**
From now on, I'll defend the royal
family as a Lancastrian noblewoman.
**[16:14] ---**
A Yorkist is fleeing! Give chase!
**[16:16] ---**
No! I'm not with York!
**[16:22] ---**
H-Help! I'm...
**[16:24] ---**
Don't worry.
**[16:32] ---**
I'm your king.
**[16:35] ---**
You're the king?
**[16:38] ---**
My subject, your suffering is my own.
**[16:43] ---**
But all that I can do is pray.
**[16:47] ---**
A-Are you really the king?
I don't believe it.
**[16:51] ---**
You look like a young man.
**[16:54] ---**
I've come to weep like you do.
**[16:59] ---**
You and I are the same.
**[17:05] ---**
You're lying.
**[17:07] ---**
If you really are the king,
**[17:09] ---**
your brow should be wrinkled
with long years of suffering.
**[17:14] ---**
Your skin should be stained
with blood and dirt.
**[17:17] ---**
You could never keep yourself so clean!
**[17:20] ---**
We ended up covered in blood
because our king refused to be!
**[17:25] ---**
It's all your fault!
I'm going to die because of you!
**[17:29] ---**
I'll die without even
knowing what life is--
**[17:33] ---**
Who are you?
**[17:35] ---**
Are you a Lancastrian?!
A Yorkist?! Tell me, or I'll kill you!
**[17:39] ---**
Why did you...?
**[17:42] ---**
He was a Lancastrian.
**[17:44] ---**
What? That can't be!
**[17:49] ---**
O Lord.
**[17:51] ---**
It's not my fault!
A nobleman ordered me to do it!
**[17:55] ---**
On the battlefield, killing is the only
choice, whoever we fight for!
**[17:59] ---**
We must kill!
**[18:01] ---**
We do it to live!
**[18:03] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[18:06] ---**
Did I imagine it?
**[18:08] ---**
No. I'm sure I heard it.
**[18:11] ---**
Where is he? King Henry is here somewhere!
**[18:18] ---**
Over here, Richard.
**[18:21] ---**
Henry is that way.
**[18:23] ---**
Do you expect me to believe you?
**[18:26] ---**
Don't interfere.
**[18:28] ---**
It's true. I'm not lying.
**[18:31] ---**
Now, come on.
Your beloved Henry is waiting.
**[18:36] ---**
Hm? That's not right.
**[18:38] ---**
It's King Henry who's waiting for you.
**[18:40] ---**
Oh, no. Your beloved Henry
is waiting for you too.
**[18:47] ---**
Come, Richard.
**[18:48] ---**
Come this way if you want to see Henry.
**[18:53] ---**
Wait, Richard.
**[18:55] ---**
Don't listen to the witch.
**[18:57] ---**
That woman means only to deceive you.
**[19:01] ---**
The king is beyond that thicket.
**[19:04] ---**
If you follow the witch, you'll never
be able to slay Henry again.
**[19:09] ---**
Avenge me.
**[19:11] ---**
Secure the throne for York!
**[19:14] ---**
Richard, come with me
if you want to see Henry.
**[19:18] ---**
Richard, trust me.
**[19:21] ---**
Trust only my words.
**[19:23] ---**
Do it to kill Henry!
**[19:25] ---**
Come, Richard!
**[19:29] ---**
Joan.
**[19:31] ---**
Richard.
**[19:32] ---**
Begone, fiend!
**[19:36] ---**
Richard.
**[19:38] ---**
But I'm the only one
**[19:42] ---**
who knows the real you.
**[19:45] ---**
Father, I will avenge you
with my own hands.
**[19:50] ---**
Swear it, Richard.
**[19:52] ---**
Like you did then.
**[19:56] ---**
Please guide me, Father.
**[19:59] ---**
Lead me to King Henry!
**[20:04] ---**
Please escape while you
still can, Your Majesty!
**[20:08] ---**
Why did this man die?
**[20:11] ---**
Or that boy?
**[20:14] ---**
Neither of them would
have died if not for me.
**[20:18] ---**
It's my fault.
**[20:20] ---**
Wait for me. Once I've slain the king,
**[20:23] ---**
I'll go to our forest, Henry.
**[20:27] ---**
It's you yourself that I like.
**[20:30] ---**
That's right. No matter who
you are, you're my...
**[20:36] ---**
What is it?
**[20:37] ---**
Unless my eyes deceive me,
I saw King Henry!
**[20:41] ---**
He was over that way.
**[20:43] ---**
Did you say Henry?
**[20:49] ---**
Duke Richard!
**[20:53] ---**
I killed them.
**[20:58] ---**
I've been killing them.
**[21:00] ---**
Let's flee, Your Majesty!
**[21:02] ---**
Names and titles don't matter.
**[21:05] ---**
Henry, you are my light.
**[21:09] ---**
So, I'm going to kill the king...
**[21:17] ---**
...and gain light.
**[21:30] ---**
Henry.
**[21:33] ---**
Richard.
**[21:37] ---**
Who are you?
**[21:40] ---**
My...
**[21:42] ---**
My name is Richard.
**[21:45] ---**
Richard Plantagenet.
**[21:49] ---**
Son of the Duke of York,
whom the Lancastrians murdered.
**[21:55] ---**
Henry... who are you?
**[22:02] ---**
I am...
**[22:04] ---**
I am the King of England.

**[00:02] ---**
I can't remember what
happened after the battle.
**[00:07] ---**
And yet...
**[00:14] ---**
Your Grace.
**[00:18] ---**
Pardon me. I knocked many times,
but received no indication.
**[00:24] ---**
Bring me wine. Enough to drown in.
**[00:27] ---**
You've drunk enough.
It's more important that you eat--
**[00:31] ---**
That's an order!
**[00:32] ---**
But...
**[00:33] ---**
Why didn't you tell me?!
You must have known who he was!
**[00:40] ---**
With that same smile he gave me
**[00:44] ---**
and those hands he held me with,
**[00:47] ---**
he ordered the death of York.
**[00:50] ---**
And yet...
**[00:52] ---**
And yet, I...
**[01:00] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:02] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:05] ---**
These royal houses with roses
for their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:11] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:52] ---**
How are Anthony's wounds?
**[02:55] ---**
They aren't serious,
**[02:57] ---**
but I doubt he can fight
in the next battle.
**[03:01] ---**
I see.
**[03:02] ---**
And what of Richard?
He didn't attend the banquet.
**[03:07] ---**
But I need him on the battlefield,
no matter what.
**[03:11] ---**
I will check on him.
**[03:14] ---**
Now, if you'll excuse me.
**[03:16] ---**
Wait.
**[03:19] ---**
Find the man who defied
my order and killed Warwick.
**[03:24] ---**
I will punish whoever disobeyed his king.
**[03:28] ---**
Count on it.
**[03:30] ---**
Understood, Your Majesty.
**[03:33] ---**
Why? Why did I meet him?
**[03:36] ---**
If we hadn't met that day,
at that time, then...
**[03:47] ---**
Hey!
**[03:52] ---**
What are you doing?
**[03:54] ---**
I committed the sin of disloyalty.
**[03:58] ---**
And you want to punish yourself?
**[04:02] ---**
Kill me.
**[04:04] ---**
Very well. I'll kill you.
**[04:08] ---**
But if you die, York will lose.
**[04:15] ---**
Listen, Richard. I'm not interested
in your inner turmoil,
**[04:20] ---**
but you're the cornerstone of our army.
**[04:22] ---**
If you really want to die, consider that
you just did, and this is hell.
**[04:29] ---**
So...
**[04:31] ---**
You may remain mad.
**[04:34] ---**
Merely slay the enemies before you.
Think of nothing else.
**[04:39] ---**
Go on killing, Richard.
**[04:43] ---**
That is my...
**[04:46] ---**
...my punishment.
**[04:53] ---**
Father.
**[04:55] ---**
I thought I understood that it
was an honor to die in battle.
**[05:01] ---**
But I convinced myself that York
would spare my father in the end.
**[05:07] ---**
It's no honor to die in battle.
**[05:10] ---**
When you die, everything ends.
**[05:11] ---**
George turned traitor
and your father was killed.
**[05:16] ---**
There's no mercy in the House of York.
**[05:20] ---**
I'll be blunt: Warwick's death
has made our victory uncertain.
**[05:29] ---**
That said, I will not retreat.
**[05:33] ---**
The Yorkists' goal isn't to drive us off;
it's the annihilation of Lancaster.
**[05:39] ---**
Why tell me that?
**[05:42] ---**
I married into this country
from France when I was 15.
**[05:47] ---**
The court manipulated the unstable Henry.
**[05:51] ---**
It was a writhing nest of demons
determined to ensnare me.
**[05:56] ---**
I've never once loved Henry.
**[05:59] ---**
God took the man I truly loved.
**[06:04] ---**
But I still have Edward.
**[06:08] ---**
Anne, you're a kind girl,
**[06:12] ---**
so I suppose you've begun to love Edward.
**[06:16] ---**
Don't let York take that child's life.
**[06:20] ---**
As long as my boy Edward lives,
**[06:25] ---**
Lancaster can rise from the ashes.
**[06:29] ---**
But what can I do?
Once the fighting starts--
**[06:34] ---**
Don't let him fight.
**[06:41] ---**
I can't say any more myself.
**[06:45] ---**
Do you understand, Anne?
This is not an order.
**[06:50] ---**
I'm going to put Edward's
life in your hands.
**[06:57] ---**
Lords! Lend me your ears!
**[07:00] ---**
Your sovereign, Henry, is now a prisoner.
**[07:03] ---**
His authority has been usurped and his
lands turned to execution grounds!
**[07:09] ---**
Oh, my tears threaten to rob me of speech.
**[07:13] ---**
The Earl of Warwick
was our anchor. I admit it.
**[07:17] ---**
But what of that?
**[07:19] ---**
Though our mast may be
broken and our anchor gone,
**[07:23] ---**
I am still here!
**[07:25] ---**
As is the prince of the blood royal!
**[07:28] ---**
Muster your courage!
**[07:30] ---**
In God's name!
**[07:32] ---**
You who love the red rose,
march forth to victory!
**[07:42] ---**
Gentlemen, I take it
you're prepared for war?
**[07:46] ---**
This is the moment I've been waiting for!
**[07:50] ---**
Bring my horse!
**[07:52] ---**
Wave the bloody flag!
**[07:54] ---**
It's victory or an honorable death!
**[08:12] ---**
I want to rush out this instant
**[08:14] ---**
and strike down fully
armored Yorkist soldiers!
**[08:20] ---**
Edward, run away now.
**[08:24] ---**
What do you mean?
**[08:25] ---**
I've picked out a double to take
your place on the battlefield.
**[08:29] ---**
Are you mad? You must be joking.
**[08:31] ---**
It's to guard the blood of Lancaster!
**[08:36] ---**
I...
**[08:37] ---**
I thought that you, at least,
would understand how I feel.
**[08:44] ---**
If you lose, the Yorkists will kill you.
**[08:49] ---**
They even killed my father.
**[08:51] ---**
And my mother and Isabelle
aren't with me anymore.
**[08:56] ---**
You're the only family I have.
**[09:01] ---**
If we win this battle...
**[09:03] ---**
No, I'm certain we'll win.
**[09:06] ---**
It will go down in history as
the first battle of a great king.
**[09:11] ---**
You're, well... the first
friend I've ever had.
**[09:17] ---**
Believe in me.
**[09:20] ---**
I doubt I'll be able to sleep tonight.
**[09:23] ---**
Shall we play chess?
**[09:25] ---**
It will be practice for tomorrow's battle.
**[09:31] ---**
I'm so sorry, Edward.
**[09:38] ---**
Behold, Queen Margaret.
This places the foe downhill from us.
**[09:43] ---**
What's more, they'll be forced to array
themselves amid brush and briars.
**[09:49] ---**
Well done. I leave the command
entirely in your hands.
**[09:53] ---**
But what of the crown prince?
**[09:56] ---**
The prince is still young.
**[09:58] ---**
I've instructed him to obey
and learn from you.
**[10:03] ---**
Haven't I, Edward?
**[10:05] ---**
Damn Lancaster!
**[10:06] ---**
I didn't expect such a
well-arranged formation.
**[10:09] ---**
But we surpass them in morale.
**[10:12] ---**
And in number of cannons,
according to reports.
**[10:15] ---**
But they have more men!
**[10:18] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[10:22] ---**
I have a plan.
**[10:39] ---**
Warriors who bear the sign
of the white rose,
**[10:43] ---**
the time to put an end to
this long war has come at last!
**[10:48] ---**
Do not forget the wounds we have suffered,
the comrades we have lost,
**[10:53] ---**
or my father's wrongful death!
**[10:56] ---**
York has the lawful claim unto the crown!
**[11:00] ---**
I will prove that with my sword today,
on this battlefield!
**[11:04] ---**
York! York! York! York!
**[11:08] ---**
Buckingham, is everything
ready in the woods?
**[11:13] ---**
As you ordered.
**[11:15] ---**
Then commence battle.
**[11:20] ---**
Keep firing! Don't give the enemy
a moment's respite!
**[11:27] ---**
The unexpectedly fierce rain of cannon
fire will soon make them anxious.
**[11:32] ---**
Duke Richard!
**[11:34] ---**
Look there!
**[11:35] ---**
The enemy's right wing!
**[11:37] ---**
They've moved!
**[11:39] ---**
Left, men! Circle around them!
**[11:46] ---**
Are you awake, Your Highness?
Please, remain resting.
**[11:51] ---**
Where am I?
**[11:55] ---**
Where is my armor?! My sword?!
**[11:58] ---**
No, Your Highness! Please do not leave
this room until the battle is ended.
**[12:04] ---**
This is Anne's doing!
**[12:08] ---**
Don't end yet, battle!
**[12:10] ---**
Wait for me, York!
**[12:17] ---**
Don't give an inch!
**[12:19] ---**
Let anger govern my heart!
**[12:21] ---**
My sword, don't lose your edge yet!
**[12:27] ---**
An ally?
**[12:30] ---**
No, not an ally!
**[12:35] ---**
You're...
**[12:37] ---**
Richard!
**[12:40] ---**
You know my name?
**[12:42] ---**
I'm sorry, but I don't have time to talk!
**[12:44] ---**
Please make way!
I don't want to strike you down!
**[12:47] ---**
So, you've thrown in your lot with
Lancaster! I can't let you pass, then!
**[12:55] ---**
Damn it!
**[13:00] ---**
Wait! Why won't you fight?!
**[13:03] ---**
--Because...
--Are you afraid to die?!
**[13:06] ---**
No!
**[13:25] ---**
Richard, I can't fight you because
**[13:30] ---**
I love...
**[13:38] ---**
Richard.
**[13:40] ---**
Lie there in shame.
**[13:45] ---**
Richard!
**[13:49] ---**
Where's our support?!
**[13:51] ---**
Our unit won't last!
**[13:56] ---**
Richard! Curse you!
**[13:59] ---**
Look! The enemy fled!
**[14:01] ---**
We've routed them! Crush them now!
**[14:12] ---**
Don't let a single Lancastrian escape!
Chase them down and kill them!
**[14:16] ---**
The Lancastrian Prince is escaping!
**[14:23] ---**
Queen Margaret! Please save your--
**[14:27] ---**
You have no allies left.
**[14:30] ---**
Do you imagine I fear the leader
of some Yorkist rebels?
**[14:36] ---**
Now, guide me, executioner.
**[14:40] ---**
Murder a queen anointed by God
with those filthy hands of yours.
**[14:49] ---**
We've captured Margaret! Victory is ours!
**[14:53] ---**
No, the prince is still on the run.
**[14:55] ---**
"The prince"?! Anne said she
had a double ready, but...
**[14:59] ---**
It can't be!
**[15:04] ---**
It will be fine. I can get away.
I can ride a horse better than anyone.
**[15:09] ---**
Get as far away as you can now, Edward!
**[15:16] ---**
Margaret must have given herself
up to let the prince escape.
**[15:20] ---**
We'll join in his pursuit!
**[15:22] ---**
Anne, don't tell me you took my place!
**[15:25] ---**
It's to guard the blood of Lancaster!
**[15:28] ---**
Is Mother behind this?
**[15:31] ---**
She denied me a sword, and now she
wants me to sacrifice my wife to flee?
**[15:37] ---**
Who's there?!
**[15:38] ---**
Who do you take me for?!
**[15:50] ---**
You're Edward of Lancaster.
**[15:52] ---**
This voice!
**[15:53] ---**
I'm going to present your
mother with your head.
**[15:56] ---**
Wait!
**[16:02] ---**
Edward! Why?!
**[16:04] ---**
Anne?!
**[16:06] ---**
Richard.
**[16:08] ---**
Hear me! I am the son of Henry VI,
the rightful King of England!
**[16:13] ---**
I am Crown Prince Edward!
**[16:18] ---**
You're the crown prince?!
**[16:21] ---**
Run! Run away, Edward!
**[16:30] ---**
Lancaster,
**[16:32] ---**
how many times must you make me...?!
**[16:47] ---**
I see you haven't turned a hair.
**[16:49] ---**
I shall endure my fate without a struggle.
**[16:53] ---**
No matter what that fate may be?
**[17:00] ---**
H-How?
**[17:02] ---**
What are you doing here?
**[17:05] ---**
Mother, I'm no longer a child
for you to lead by the hand!
**[17:11] ---**
What foolishness!
**[17:14] ---**
Sons of York! The prince is still a child!
**[17:17] ---**
He is not even worthy of your hatred!
**[17:20] ---**
If you seek vengeance, take it on me.
**[17:23] ---**
It was I who struck off
your father's head!
**[17:27] ---**
You can't have forgotten.
**[17:29] ---**
Your father wept pitifully as he died!
**[17:34] ---**
Lancaster!
**[17:36] ---**
Oh, I'll never forget how that
conceited rebel died like a worm,
**[17:43] ---**
or his miserable, tear-stained head!
**[17:46] ---**
Lancaster!
**[17:48] ---**
Or the moment I lopped it off
with my own hands!
**[17:51] ---**
My heart still rejoices when I recall it!
**[17:56] ---**
When I recall your father's foolish death!
**[17:59] ---**
Silence! I'll stop your heart
for you right now!
**[18:02] ---**
Wait, George!
**[18:03] ---**
Killing one who seeks death
would be charity.
**[18:07] ---**
Say your prayers, prince of Lancaster.
**[18:10] ---**
Wait! Wait!
**[18:12] ---**
Unlike me, the prince is merciful!
**[18:14] ---**
He'll pray for York!
Now, pray! Pray, Edward!
**[18:24] ---**
You are going to be king,
**[18:26] ---**
Edward.
**[18:30] ---**
It will come to war soon.
**[18:32] ---**
Who should we side with?
**[18:35] ---**
Prince Edward!
**[18:36] ---**
Is anything the matter?!
**[18:43] ---**
King...
**[18:45] ---**
Look, Mother! I'll be a splendid king!
**[18:49] ---**
When I'm king, I'm certain
**[18:51] ---**
everyone will look at me.
**[19:05] ---**
Say something befitting a subject.
**[19:09] ---**
What are you saying?
**[19:10] ---**
Kneel, insolent wretches!
**[19:12] ---**
Lustful Edward!
**[19:14] ---**
Traitorous George!
**[19:15] ---**
Reprobates born of filthy rebel blood!
**[19:18] ---**
I am your king!
**[19:26] ---**
Once I'm king,
**[19:27] ---**
all my wishes will come true.
**[19:33] ---**
T-Traitors!
**[19:35] ---**
Edward! Edward!
**[19:37] ---**
Kill me! This instant!
**[19:39] ---**
Why won't you kill me, cowards?!
**[19:42] ---**
Of course! Richard! Where is he?!
**[19:44] ---**
That demon would never
spurn a petitioner for blood.
**[19:47] ---**
If you're looking for Richard,
he's in hell now
**[19:50] ---**
until he eradicates
the House of Lancaster.
**[19:55] ---**
It hurts. I can't breathe.
**[19:58] ---**
Is this the end?
**[20:00] ---**
None of my wishes have come true yet.
**[20:04] ---**
I didn't care about the crown.
**[20:07] ---**
What I...
**[20:08] ---**
What I really wanted was...
**[20:12] ---**
I had a wish that I wanted to
come true, no matter what it took.
**[20:32] ---**
Richard, have you come for me?
**[20:37] ---**
Just one last wish.
**[20:42] ---**
Listen, Richard.
**[20:44] ---**
I love you!
**[20:52] ---**
At least let it be you.
**[20:55] ---**
I want to perish at your hand.
**[21:12] ---**
Kill me too! Hurry!
**[21:15] ---**
Yes, I'll kill you.
**[21:17] ---**
Wait!
**[21:18] ---**
We've already done too much. Stop.
**[21:21] ---**
Why? This woman is the root of it all!
**[21:25] ---**
That's why death is too good for her.
**[21:28] ---**
Margaret, go on living in despair.
**[21:38] ---**
Edward, my darling son.
**[21:42] ---**
Why were you killed and I left alone?
**[21:46] ---**
Kill me! Kill me this instant!

**[00:06] ---**
All hail! God save the king!
**[00:09] ---**
Bless King Edward IV!
Bless the Royal Family of York!
**[00:14] ---**
We've repurchased the throne
with our enemies' blood.
**[00:18] ---**
Where is Richard, the star
performer in our victory?
**[00:22] ---**
Well, Richard said that he would go...
**[00:26] ---**
...to the Tower.
**[00:29] ---**
A thousand soldiers' blood
may pay for a throne,
**[00:34] ---**
but only a king's blood
can pay for my father's soul.
**[00:41] ---**
I'm simply going to speak
with the former king.
**[00:44] ---**
But Your Grace, I can't admit you
without the king's permission.
**[00:48] ---**
And, well, Henry's longstanding
illness has worsened.
**[00:52] ---**
He can't converse.
He doesn't even know who he is.
**[00:56] ---**
You mean he's forgotten
that he was ever king?!
**[01:04] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:06] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:09] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:15] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:55] ---**
A blessing! A blessing on this cursed day!
**[02:58] ---**
You look nothing like your brothers!
**[03:01] ---**
You're a demon child!
**[03:02] ---**
All hail! Bless the demon child!
**[03:05] ---**
The season of malediction will come again!
**[03:11] ---**
Beautiful. That was a splendid dance.
**[03:14] ---**
But it's no match for
the beauty of my queen.
**[03:18] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[03:19] ---**
Oh, what a surprise!
**[03:21] ---**
Here's the most beautiful person
in the whole world!
**[03:24] ---**
My noble mother!
**[03:26] ---**
Edward!
**[03:31] ---**
You look just like your
father would as king.
**[03:34] ---**
George!
**[03:35] ---**
Mother!
**[03:36] ---**
George!
**[03:38] ---**
Your father's soul
has reunited our family,
**[03:44] ---**
and our bonds will now endure forever.
**[03:48] ---**
Richard, embrace our mother as well.
**[03:51] ---**
Save that for another time.
**[03:54] ---**
Your Majesty, everyone is waiting
for the banquet to resume.
**[03:58] ---**
That's true.
**[04:00] ---**
Then henceforth let us indulge ourselves
in entertainment and spectacle!
**[04:06] ---**
The war is over!
**[04:12] ---**
My light will never return.
**[04:18] ---**
Even if I kill, and kill, and kill.
**[04:31] ---**
Here's your meal.
**[04:33] ---**
He doesn't even stir.
Are we sure he's not dead?
**[04:37] ---**
I'll take it from here.
**[04:39] ---**
You go join in the party.
**[04:42] ---**
But...
**[04:43] ---**
Let's take him up on his kind offer.
**[04:46] ---**
Our humble thanks, Your Grace.
**[05:16] ---**
I've come to kill you.
**[05:20] ---**
Do you recognize me?
**[05:24] ---**
I don't.
**[05:27] ---**
I don't know why
**[05:31] ---**
you left me.
**[05:35] ---**
The wolves are watching me.
**[05:40] ---**
The wolves want to gobble me up.
**[05:44] ---**
I'm scared!
**[05:46] ---**
Help, Mother!
**[05:52] ---**
Henry.
**[06:07] ---**
Henry.
**[06:09] ---**
Look at me!
**[06:10] ---**
Look at the face of the man
who's going to kill you!
**[06:18] ---**
Are you going to run away like that?
**[06:23] ---**
Look, Henry!
**[06:36] ---**
Don't leave me alone.
**[06:53] ---**
I despise you.
**[06:56] ---**
I hate you more than I can bear.
**[07:10] ---**
Richard...
**[07:18] ---**
Henry!
**[07:20] ---**
Impossible. Even as a joke,
that's in poor taste.
**[07:24] ---**
Could you have been
drunk and seeing things?
**[07:27] ---**
Edward, you don't know
what Richard really is.
**[07:32] ---**
That child is a demon!
**[07:34] ---**
He seduces people to their destruction!
**[07:36] ---**
"Seduces"? It's not as though
he slept with Henry.
**[07:40] ---**
Oh, how horrible!
**[07:42] ---**
O Lord, protect our family!
**[07:46] ---**
Your mother's fears are quite reasonable.
**[07:49] ---**
Your Majesty's throne still rests
on unsteady foundations.
**[07:54] ---**
It will do so as long as Henry exists.
**[07:58] ---**
But have no fear.
**[08:00] ---**
I know the best way to assuage
both your and your mother's doubts.
**[08:11] ---**
Excuse me, Your Majesty.
**[08:14] ---**
Fine cloth, is it not? Perfect to make
matching cloaks for my queen and I.
**[08:19] ---**
Would you like one?
**[08:20] ---**
No, not me.
**[08:22] ---**
Dress with more flare.
**[08:24] ---**
Elegance, not bravery, will be
the mark of power from now on.
**[08:29] ---**
Your Majesty, why did you summon me?
**[08:31] ---**
Before you exchange your armor for silks,
**[08:34] ---**
there is one piece of business
left to attend to.
**[08:38] ---**
An ember of the Lancastrian
inferno that scorched England.
**[08:42] ---**
The last spark that threatens
the peace of York.
**[08:47] ---**
Richard...
**[08:50] ---**
Kill Henry.
**[08:53] ---**
If anyone learns that I murdered a former
king who had no intention to rebel,
**[08:58] ---**
the people will assuredly censure us.
**[09:01] ---**
It must be done in secret.
**[09:03] ---**
You are the only person
I can trust to do this for me.
**[09:08] ---**
Is that clear, Richard? I won't wait long.
**[09:12] ---**
Show your loyalty to me.
**[09:19] ---**
I wish it would never stop.
**[09:22] ---**
Then, I could stay with you forever.
**[09:28] ---**
"You"?
**[09:31] ---**
Who do I mean?
**[09:34] ---**
You seem so sad.
**[09:37] ---**
I know your name.
**[09:42] ---**
Richard.
**[09:47] ---**
Richard.
**[09:49] ---**
Why?
**[09:52] ---**
It hurts.
**[09:53] ---**
Once more, just once more, let us kiss.
**[10:01] ---**
Who are you?
**[10:03] ---**
Henry, let me tell you of a demon child.
**[10:08] ---**
Of a demon child born cursing
the world and cursed by it in turn.
**[10:13] ---**
Of Richard.
**[10:33] ---**
Richard, you are a curse.
**[10:35] ---**
You are sin itself.
**[10:37] ---**
I must atone for your sins!
**[10:57] ---**
Give me the key.
**[11:00] ---**
Command me.
**[11:04] ---**
Please command me to kill Henry.
**[11:10] ---**
I've prepared a corpse that resembles him.
**[11:16] ---**
I said, give me the key.
**[11:24] ---**
Once I kill him, it will end.
**[11:27] ---**
It won't end unless I kill him.
**[11:34] ---**
The prophet said
**[11:37] ---**
the wolf will come,
and the innocent lamb will offer up
**[11:42] ---**
its throat to the demon's fangs.
**[11:45] ---**
The shepherd has gone away.
**[11:53] ---**
Even if you don't remember anything,
**[11:56] ---**
I remember every last detail.
**[11:59] ---**
That day, when I first met you,
**[12:03] ---**
I escaped the darkness,
and there you were.
**[12:07] ---**
You always appeared without warning
**[12:09] ---**
to heal my wounds and to tear them open.
**[12:14] ---**
I had no guarantee of seeing you,
but my longing for you still tormented me.
**[12:19] ---**
I hated you more than I could bear.
**[12:24] ---**
And yet,
**[12:26] ---**
I considered giving up everything
**[12:30] ---**
if it meant I could live with you.
**[12:35] ---**
I had a dream.
**[12:38] ---**
A foolish dream.
**[12:40] ---**
But there's nothing left of it now.
**[12:51] ---**
All that remains...
**[12:57] ---**
...is my sin.
**[13:01] ---**
You're...
**[13:03] ---**
I was born burdened
with the sin of my body.
**[13:08] ---**
I'm not a man.
**[13:12] ---**
I'm neither a man nor a woman.
**[13:15] ---**
I was born with two sexes.
**[13:18] ---**
You're the only one I'll tell the truth.
**[13:21] ---**
At the end, I'll show you my true form.
**[13:25] ---**
The real me.
**[13:31] ---**
Please, God.
**[13:35] ---**
Please.
**[13:40] ---**
Henry,
**[13:42] ---**
please love me.
**[14:02] ---**
Henry.
**[14:05] ---**
Let's sin
**[14:08] ---**
and go to hell together.
**[14:18] ---**
Now, confess.
**[14:21] ---**
I dreamed many times.
**[14:24] ---**
Those eyes,
**[14:25] ---**
hair,
**[14:26] ---**
lips,
**[14:28] ---**
warmth.
**[14:30] ---**
I've never felt like this before.
Not for anyone.
**[14:37] ---**
His presence was my salvation.
**[14:39] ---**
He's my dear friend,
but before I knew it...
**[14:45] ---**
I found him... found him beautiful.
**[14:51] ---**
That feeling took hold of me
and made me suffer.
**[14:55] ---**
I couldn't help it!
**[14:57] ---**
I want to touch him!
**[15:00] ---**
To take everything from him!
**[15:03] ---**
What treachery.
**[15:05] ---**
What blasphemy. What a terrible sin!
**[15:08] ---**
Your body is brimming with dreadful lust!
**[15:11] ---**
Your wanton mother's impure blood!
**[15:14] ---**
With her blood, you defiled God!
**[15:16] ---**
Henry, the Lord God will forgive you.
**[15:21] ---**
A demon instigated
every sin in this world.
**[15:25] ---**
That demon led you astray
with its demonic flesh.
**[15:32] ---**
Wanton nightmares. Suffering.
**[15:36] ---**
Hatred.
**[15:37] ---**
Impulses.
**[15:39] ---**
Lust.
**[15:41] ---**
Good boy, Henry.
**[15:44] ---**
Stop!
**[15:47] ---**
Henry.
**[15:51] ---**
Stay back.
**[15:53] ---**
Don't come near me, demon!
**[15:57] ---**
Henry.
**[16:00] ---**
The prophet said the day you were born,
a terrible storm laid trees low.
**[16:08] ---**
Owls screeched.
Crows croaked in the night.
**[16:11] ---**
Stop.
**[16:12] ---**
To herald the coming
of an age of misfortune!
**[16:16] ---**
Richard!
**[16:18] ---**
Your mother suffered
abnormal birthing pains!
**[16:22] ---**
And after all that, her child
**[16:25] ---**
looked nothing like its parents
and defied the will of God!
**[16:30] ---**
It was a blood-soaked demon!
**[16:36] ---**
One day, a host of people
who have lost children...
**[16:39] ---**
Silence.
**[16:40] ---**
...will lament the untimely
deaths you have caused.
**[16:43] ---**
Silence.
**[16:44] ---**
"Why was he ever born?" they will cry--
**[16:45] ---**
Silence! Silence! Silence! Silence!
**[16:59] ---**
As they curse the day...
**[17:04] ---**
...of your birth.
**[17:18] ---**
Oh!
**[17:19] ---**
Hung be the heavens with black!
Yield day to night!
**[17:23] ---**
King Henry VI! England never lost
a king of so much worth!
**[17:29] ---**
Comets, importing change
of times and states,
**[17:32] ---**
scourge the bad revolting stars
**[17:34] ---**
that have consented
to our kind king's death!
**[17:40] ---**
My most beloved brother.
**[17:42] ---**
And your lovely wife, Isabelle.
Has your sister been well since then?
**[17:47] ---**
Your Majesty is too kind.
Words cannot express my gratitude.
**[17:52] ---**
My lady sister, however,
is still unwell due to her distress.
**[17:58] ---**
Please have no fear.
**[18:00] ---**
We'll tend to Anne and the Neville
estate with the utmost care.
**[18:04] ---**
How reassuring. Many desire
the Earl of Warwick's vast wealth.
**[18:10] ---**
See to it that no rogue
leads your sister astray.
**[18:15] ---**
Yes, Your Majesty. I will be most careful.
**[18:19] ---**
Especially of upstart minor nobles.
**[18:24] ---**
I won't let that woman's
relatives control the royal family.
**[18:27] ---**
Your inheritance and Anne's combined
make my power a match for the king's.
**[18:34] ---**
That's why we need to keep Anne with us.
**[18:39] ---**
Murdered? Don't talk nonsense.
**[18:42] ---**
Everyone's saying it.
**[18:43] ---**
They say Richard killed King Henry.
**[18:46] ---**
I saw him on the battlefield.
**[18:48] ---**
Richard mercilessly struck down
the Earl of Warwick as he fled!
**[18:54] ---**
Well, I wouldn't put it past Richard.
**[19:03] ---**
--Isabe--
--No, not "Isabelle."
**[19:05] ---**
Call me "Your Grace," Anne.
**[19:08] ---**
Oh, excuse me.
Anne is my elder sister's name.
**[19:13] ---**
You're merely a stable hand.
**[19:16] ---**
Yes, Your Grace.
**[19:20] ---**
I'm terribly sorry.
I've been feeling a little unwell lately.
**[19:24] ---**
Men seeking your inheritance
visit every day.
**[19:27] ---**
I can't possibly let them meet you.
**[19:31] ---**
You understand, don't you?
I want to keep my family safe.
**[19:38] ---**
I was the only one
pardoned after that battle.
**[19:43] ---**
Even though I failed to protect anything.
**[19:46] ---**
So, at least...
**[19:50] ---**
How tragic.
**[19:52] ---**
She'll never heal if
she remains unmarried.
**[19:55] ---**
Anne Neville, you mean?
**[19:57] ---**
We should help her marry soon.
**[19:59] ---**
The thought of her plight worries me.
**[20:03] ---**
Especially the thought of allowing
George to hold such vast wealth.
**[20:09] ---**
I at least want to offer him
one last red rose for Lancaster.
**[20:18] ---**
Please wait!
**[20:19] ---**
Please!
**[20:20] ---**
Please allow me to mourn
King Henry's passing!
**[20:24] ---**
Lower the casket.
**[20:30] ---**
Pardon me, Lady Anne Neville.
**[20:35] ---**
Richard.
**[20:37] ---**
How could you...?
**[20:40] ---**
King Henry!
**[20:43] ---**
Does this look like Henry to you?
**[20:45] ---**
We can hardly exhibit a body
covered in sword wounds.
**[20:49] ---**
You really did kill him?
**[20:54] ---**
I did.
**[20:56] ---**
--And my father!
--I killed him.
**[20:58] ---**
Your husband too.
**[21:00] ---**
As Edward lay bound and sobbing,
I took my sword to his neck and--
**[21:05] ---**
Stop!
**[21:09] ---**
What? I've been feeling
strange for some time.
**[21:11] ---**
Don't tell me...
**[21:13] ---**
Do you think your family will protect you?
**[21:16] ---**
They only want to guard your fortune.
**[21:19] ---**
Sooner or later,
you'll become an obstacle.
**[21:23] ---**
Everyone is waiting
eagerly for your death.
**[21:26] ---**
D-Demon.
**[21:30] ---**
The Duke Richard I knew is dead.
**[21:35] ---**
A demon took his noble soul.
**[21:39] ---**
But Lady Anne, let me confess:
**[21:43] ---**
I became that way for love.
**[21:47] ---**
Love for you drove me.
**[21:56] ---**
Richard, I've thought of
the reward you'll enjoy most.
**[22:01] ---**
Marriage to Anne Neville.
**[22:04] ---**
You were my light.
**[22:07] ---**
In dream and reality, I sought for you.
**[22:12] ---**
If it would win me a
moment in your embrace,
**[22:15] ---**
I would even have slaughtered
every person in the world.
**[22:20] ---**
This is also for the Royal Family
of York. I trust you understand,
**[22:24] ---**
Richard?
**[22:26] ---**
If I cannot convince you,
please take this sword...
**[22:31] ---**
...and bury it in my breast.
**[22:36] ---**
Liar.
**[22:37] ---**
I'm not lying.
**[22:40] ---**
Tell me the truth.
**[22:43] ---**
Anne, I want you to marry me.
**[22:47] ---**
I'm certain he's not sincere.
**[22:52] ---**
After all, he... he...
**[22:58] ---**
Richard is dead--
**[23:01] ---**
died alone in the woods that day.

**[00:02] ---**
Preserve my name, Richard.
It's the name of a king.
**[00:07] ---**

"Demon Child"
**[01:04] ---**
Well, Richard, do you surrender?
**[01:07] ---**
That's Edward for you.
**[01:09] ---**
Let me try again, Edward!
**[01:11] ---**
That's enough, Lord Richard.
**[01:13] ---**
Your mother will scold
you if you're injured.
**[01:18] ---**
Catesby, give me your horse!
**[01:21] ---**
This story follows Richard,
the Duke of York's third son,
**[01:27] ---**
whose body harbors a secret
known only to a few.
**[01:32] ---**
When will my arms thicken?
**[01:37] ---**
You can't do it, Richard.
**[01:39] ---**
Not with your body.
**[01:41] ---**
Here. Take a look.
**[01:43] ---**
Your body...
**[01:44] ---**
is neither a man's nor a woman's.
**[01:49] ---**
Born with two sexes,
Richard is shunned by the duchess
**[01:55] ---**
and tormented by Joan the witch,
who lurks deep within Richard's mind.
**[02:01] ---**
I will become king.
**[02:04] ---**
The Duke of York,
Richard's father and namesake,
**[02:07] ---**
treated Richard without prejudice
and showered Richard with love.
**[02:12] ---**
My father is my light.
**[02:15] ---**
Only he will save me
from darkness and gloom.
**[02:20] ---**
Richard's one wish
**[02:23] ---**
was for the duke to reclaim the throne
from his foes, the House of Lancaster.
**[02:30] ---**
I will not be king.
**[02:33] ---**
But despite the Duke of York's
victory in war,
**[02:37] ---**
parliament refused to
acknowledge him as king.
**[02:40] ---**
He became Lord Protector to King Henry VI.
**[02:44] ---**
Have they no shame?
**[02:45] ---**
Let's fight them again!
**[02:47] ---**
The crown belongs on your head, Father!
**[02:50] ---**
We'll dye this white rose red
with Henry's blood!
**[02:54] ---**
The Duke of York resolved to make
war for his throne once more.
**[03:00] ---**
You demon! This only happened because you
beguiled him with your honeyed words!
**[03:05] ---**
You are a demon child!
**[03:08] ---**
That night, something seemed to draw
Richard into an encounter with a man.
**[03:08] ---**
"A Pair Guided by Fate"
**[03:14] ---**
What are you doing?
**[03:18] ---**
I'm making a sundial.
**[03:21] ---**
There was something strange about
that man that drew Richard to him.
**[03:26] ---**
Both of them had gone through
life without their mothers' love.
**[03:32] ---**
I'm sure I couldn't go
to heaven if I died.
**[03:35] ---**
I'm a demon child.
**[03:37] ---**
That's why I can't get
my mother to love me.
**[03:43] ---**
I'll pray for you.
Would you tell me your name?
**[03:48] ---**
Richard.
**[03:50] ---**
My name is Henry.
**[03:52] ---**
Richard, would you be my friend?
**[03:57] ---**
But that man was Richard's sworn enemy,
King Henry of the House of Lancaster.
**[04:04] ---**
The two met without realizing
that they were foes.
**[04:07] ---**
Thus, their fate was
silently set in motion.
**[04:11] ---**
With King Henry's capture,
**[04:13] ---**
"Father and Child"
**[04:14] ---**
the Duke of York seemed to have
gained the upper hand in battle.
**[04:19] ---**
But he was defeated by
Henry's wife, Queen Margaret,
**[04:23] ---**
and taken prisoner himself.
**[04:27] ---**
Richard raced through the chaos,
determined to save the duke's life.
**[04:33] ---**
We Lancastrians have occupied this town.
**[04:35] ---**
Are you really from this town?
**[04:37] ---**
Father!
**[04:39] ---**
I need to reach you soon!
**[04:43] ---**
A wife and children.
**[04:45] ---**
He's these children's father...
**[04:48] ---**
...and I killed him.
**[04:54] ---**
Father!
**[04:56] ---**
My father is waiting for me.
**[04:59] ---**
He's waiting for me.
**[05:04] ---**
Father!
**[05:07] ---**
My light.
**[05:11] ---**
Meanwhile,
**[05:11] ---**
"Light and Shadow"
**[05:12] ---**
the duke's eldest son, Edward,
**[05:14] ---**
and his trusted ally, the Earl of Warwick,
gave Margaret's army battle.
**[05:19] ---**
Look, Warwick. Look at the sun.
**[05:22] ---**
That sun is a good omen!
**[05:25] ---**
Enemy reinforcements?!
**[05:26] ---**
They number in the thousands.
**[05:31] ---**
I have been forever robbed of light.
**[05:35] ---**
In the dark, I can see
only the color of blood.
**[05:39] ---**
So, I will cover the world...
**[05:41] ---**
...in blood! Blood! Blood!
**[05:43] ---**
Blood!
**[05:45] ---**
The victorious Edward declared
himself King of England.
**[05:51] ---**
"Two Years Later"
**[05:52] ---**
He decided to secure his position
**[05:55] ---**
by wedding the sister-in-law
of the King of France.
**[05:59] ---**
Anne, give me your hand.
**[06:01] ---**
The Earl of Warwick's
daughter, Anne Neville,
**[06:05] ---**
was the only woman Richard would trust.
**[06:09] ---**
But she was becoming embroiled
in the battle for the crown as well.
**[06:14] ---**
I trust that my French lady
is quite the beauty as well.
**[06:19] ---**
Leave everything to me.
**[06:21] ---**
I plan to do nothing
without your approval.
**[06:25] ---**
But at the same time, Edward met with
the widowed Elizabeth Woodville in secret.
**[06:33] ---**
Elizabeth, however,
had designs of her own.
**[06:36] ---**
I will avenge him.
**[06:37] ---**
The Royal Family of York,
my husband's killers, will be ours.
**[06:42] ---**
If I let her go,
I'll regret it as long as I live.
**[06:46] ---**
Does love make people as blind as this?
**[06:50] ---**
He speaks as though that
woman is more valuable.
**[06:54] ---**
As though she's worth more than
the crown that Father died for.
**[07:00] ---**
As shadows crept up on
the Royal Family of York,
**[07:03] ---**
Richard had a fateful reunion with Henry.
**[07:08] ---**
Richard?
**[07:10] ---**
I had faith that I would see you again.
**[07:13] ---**
Why does he always...?
**[07:15] ---**
Why are you so obsessed
with me, of all people?
**[07:18] ---**
Because! Because you've
been my salvation all this time!
**[07:21] ---**
I was your salvation? Me?
**[07:24] ---**
Their unexpected life together
**[07:27] ---**
cast a ray of light into
Richard's closed-off heart.
**[07:33] ---**
Henry, you make me mad.
**[07:38] ---**
I'm afraid I'm going to lose
**[07:41] ---**
the answers I've gotten
and... everything else.
**[07:45] ---**
But even so...
**[07:47] ---**
Even so, forever and ever, I...
**[07:53] ---**
God save Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth!
**[07:53] ---**
"Qualities of a King"
**[07:57] ---**
The public announcement
of Edward's marriage to Elizabeth
**[08:01] ---**
began to throw doubt onto the
supposed security of the House of York.
**[08:07] ---**
If we get another war to turn
the world upside down,
**[08:11] ---**
then even I might end up king.
**[08:13] ---**
Haven't you ever considered it?!
**[08:15] ---**
You could be king yourself!
**[08:17] ---**
Me, become king?
**[08:20] ---**
With this shameful body of mine?
**[08:22] ---**
But who's worthy to be king if I'm not?
**[08:26] ---**
Preserve my name, Richard.
It's the name of a king.
**[08:33] ---**
The name... of a king.
**[08:36] ---**
With his sister-in-law's
engagement broken,
**[08:40] ---**
the King of France supported a
renewed Lancastrian bid for the throne.
**[08:44] ---**
And then...
**[08:45] ---**
What are *you*...
**[08:47] ---**
...doing here?!
**[08:49] ---**
Damn you!
**[08:50] ---**
Your Majesty, my virtuous queen.
**[08:54] ---**
He is none other than your savior.
**[08:58] ---**
Where's the king?!
**[09:00] ---**
Aim for the king's tent!
**[09:02] ---**
Edward was captured due
to Warwick's stratagems.
**[09:05] ---**
How could you repay
my trust with treachery?
**[09:08] ---**
I will reclaim the land and
return it to its rightful sovereign.
**[09:13] ---**
What "rightful sovereign"?
**[09:16] ---**
He is here now.
**[09:18] ---**
King George is my true
sovereign, and I, his vassal.
**[09:23] ---**
It's as I feared.
**[09:25] ---**
I knew that Warwick
was no friend of ours.
**[09:29] ---**
Does he plan to
send me back to France
**[09:32] ---**
and pretend that our
alliance never happened?
**[09:35] ---**
Richard was forced to choose
which elder brother to support.
**[09:40] ---**
A man who has no awareness as king.
**[09:43] ---**
A man who is unqualified to be king.
**[09:45] ---**
Neither of them is fit for the throne.
**[09:48] ---**
Even so,
**[09:49] ---**
Warwick, I will never, *never*
give the kingdom to you.
**[09:52] ---**
We're going to rescue King Edward.
**[09:57] ---**
Richard unknowingly joined forces with
Crown Prince Edward of Lancaster
**[10:03] ---**
and took advantage of Richard's own
hated body to successfully rescue Edward.
**[10:09] ---**
Catesby is waiting with
horses outside the castle.
**[10:12] ---**
In response, Warwick...
**[10:14] ---**
I'm grateful to see you again,
my dear Warwick.
**[10:19] ---**
Now, Edward,
**[10:21] ---**
claim your bride.
**[10:24] ---**
Anne. You are to be Edward's wife.
**[10:28] ---**
Henceforth, the Nevilles will share
the fortunes of the House of Lancaster.
**[10:34] ---**
Warwick.
**[10:35] ---**
Proclaim it to everyone here.
**[10:37] ---**
Speak the name of England's king.
**[10:40] ---**
I give thanks for this joyous
opportunity to praise his name.
**[10:45] ---**
Our sovereign...
**[10:46] ---**
His Majesty, King Henry VI.
**[10:49] ---**
...became King Henry's
Protector and seized power.
**[10:54] ---**
I am now the King of
England in all but name.
**[10:59] ---**
Richard, deliver this
Yorkist flag to George.
**[11:01] ---**
"For Love"
**[11:04] ---**
This is my final warning.
**[11:06] ---**
The outnumbered House of York
embarked on a massive gamble.
**[11:11] ---**
George stayed with Warwick even after
he sided with Lancaster. Can I move him?
**[11:17] ---**
No. I *will* succeed.
**[11:20] ---**
I'll win England back from them.
**[11:23] ---**
En route, Richard suffered a Lancastrian
attack and fled into the woods.
**[11:32] ---**
Henry?
**[11:32] ---**
Richard.
**[11:34] ---**
Find him!
**[11:35] ---**
Come on!
**[11:37] ---**
I thought that I would
never see you again.
**[11:40] ---**
I thought I *shouldn't* see you again.
**[11:43] ---**
And yet...
**[11:44] ---**
I longed to see you, Richard.
**[11:46] ---**
I'm truly, truly glad.
**[11:48] ---**
When I look up at the sky,
I remember the first time I met you.
**[11:54] ---**
Do you still have nightmares?
**[11:58] ---**
The world stays just the same,
**[12:00] ---**
but my beautiful memories
with you purify me.
**[12:06] ---**
I'm in pain, but why?
**[12:08] ---**
I'm not a woman, and yet...
**[12:13] ---**
You're my angel, Richard.
**[12:17] ---**
I love Henry.
**[12:21] ---**
Your Grace!
**[12:23] ---**
Wait; he's not our enemy.
**[12:25] ---**
But that man is--
**[12:27] ---**
My friend.
**[12:30] ---**
He's an old acquaintance of mine.
**[12:32] ---**
He came to take me away.
**[12:34] ---**
No!
**[12:36] ---**
There are things that I must do.
**[12:39] ---**
Can we be together always
once you've done them?
**[12:43] ---**
Let's promise to meet
again under that tree.
**[12:48] ---**
Very well. You have my word.
**[12:52] ---**
The throne is yours, Your Majesty.
**[12:54] ---**
I suppose I've no choice.
**[12:56] ---**
That should have been my seat.
**[12:58] ---**
Why is Warwick sitting on that throne?
**[13:02] ---**
Where did I go wrong?
**[13:05] ---**
"White and Red"
**[13:06] ---**
At last, the curtain rose on the decisive
battle between York and Lancaster.
**[13:13] ---**
It appears you've lost your way.
**[13:15] ---**
You're the one who's lost.
**[13:18] ---**
Do you intend to challenge
us with such a paltry force?
**[13:22] ---**
The brother who abandoned you has come.
**[13:24] ---**
You're late. Did Margaret's
forces arrive in time?
**[13:34] ---**
I've repented my infidelity,
and to regain my brother's trust,
**[13:38] ---**
I hereby denounce you as my mortal foe!
**[13:42] ---**
I'll return the wound you gave
my heart a hundred-fold!
**[13:46] ---**
You'll pay for this.
**[13:47] ---**
Traitor!
**[13:53] ---**
How are we supposed to fight in this mist?
**[13:56] ---**
Follow me!
**[13:57] ---**
I can see! I can see the
red blood of Lancaster!
**[14:02] ---**
--Your Majesty!
--I...
**[14:04] ---**
I've always believed that
my heart was with my people.
**[14:09] ---**
But I kept averting my gaze
from reality--from everyone's pain.
**[14:15] ---**
I must witness it with my own eyes.
**[14:17] ---**
As king, I must see its end.
**[14:20] ---**
There's the enemy line!
They haven't noticed us in the mist!
**[14:24] ---**
We can take them by surprise!
**[14:26] ---**
I'm off to win glory!
**[14:27] ---**
--Wait for me!
--Let's go!
--Follow me, Lancastrian soldiers.
**[14:29] ---**
--I'll join you!
--Follow me, Lancastrian soldiers.
**[14:31] ---**
Shatter Lancaster!
**[14:34] ---**
With the aid of Richard's quick wit,
the Yorkist army gained the upper hand.
**[14:39] ---**
Finally...
**[14:41] ---**
Damn!
**[14:42] ---**
I refuse to let this be the end!
**[14:44] ---**
I've bent all of England to my will!
**[14:47] ---**
The crown is still in my hands!
**[14:51] ---**
Warwick, your time is over.
**[14:54] ---**
From now on, I am
**[14:56] ---**
the kingmaker.
**[14:58] ---**
Where is he? King Henry is here somewhere!
**[15:02] ---**
Come, Richard.
**[15:04] ---**
Come this way if you want to see Henry.
**[15:08] ---**
Wait, Richard.
**[15:10] ---**
That woman means only to deceive you.
**[15:13] ---**
Richard, come with me.
**[15:15] ---**
Trust only my words.
**[15:17] ---**
Do it to kill Henry!
**[15:19] ---**
Begone, fiend!
**[15:22] ---**
Richard.
**[15:25] ---**
But I'm the only one
**[15:29] ---**
who knows the real you.
**[15:30] ---**
Father, I will avenge you
with my own hands.
**[15:34] ---**
Lead me to King Henry!
**[15:39] ---**
I killed them.
**[15:43] ---**
I've been killing them.
**[15:46] ---**
Let's flee, Your Majesty!
**[15:48] ---**
Wait for me. Once I've slain the king,
**[15:51] ---**
I'll go to our forest, Henry.
**[15:54] ---**
That's right. No matter
who you are, you're my...
**[15:57] ---**
Duke Richard!
**[15:59] ---**
Names and titles don't matter.
**[16:01] ---**
Henry, you are my light.
**[16:05] ---**
So, I'm going to kill the king...
**[16:13] ---**
...and gain light.
**[16:22] ---**
Henry.
**[16:24] ---**
Richard.
**[16:26] ---**
Who are you?
**[16:29] ---**
My name is Richard Plantagenet.
**[16:34] ---**
Son of the Duke of York,
whom the Lancastrians murdered.
**[16:39] ---**
I am the King of England.
**[16:55] ---**
The battle ended in a Yorkist victory.
**[16:56] ---**
"In Darkness"
**[16:57] ---**
King Henry was imprisoned
in a state of despondency.
**[17:02] ---**
But as for Richard's heart...
**[17:05] ---**
Why?
**[17:06] ---**
If we hadn't met that day,
at that time, then...
**[17:12] ---**
Hey!
**[17:17] ---**
If you really want to die, consider
that you just did, and this is hell.
**[17:23] ---**
So...
**[17:25] ---**
You may remain mad.
**[17:28] ---**
Merely slay the enemies before you.
Think of nothing else.
**[17:33] ---**
Go on killing, Richard.
**[17:37] ---**
That is my...
**[17:41] ---**
My punishment.
**[17:46] ---**
Both Queen Margaret
**[17:49] ---**
and her son Edward, Prince of Wales,
became prisoners of war.
**[17:53] ---**
The House of Lancaster
was coming to its end.
**[17:56] ---**
Say your prayers, prince of Lancaster.
**[18:00] ---**
Kneel, insolent wretches!
**[18:01] ---**
I am your king!
**[18:07] ---**
I had a wish that I wanted to
come true, no matter what it took.
**[18:13] ---**
At least let it be you.
**[18:16] ---**
I want to perish at your hand.
**[18:24] ---**
Kill me too!
**[18:26] ---**
Kill me this instant!
**[18:31] ---**
Kill Henry.
**[18:35] ---**
Edward IV gave his brother
Richard an order
**[18:39] ---**
to assassinate Henry as a show of loyalty.
**[18:42] ---**
It must be done in secret.
**[18:44] ---**
Even if you don't remember anything,
**[18:47] ---**
I remember every last detail.
**[18:55] ---**
You're...
**[18:56] ---**
I'm neither a man nor a woman.
**[19:01] ---**
I was born with two sexes.
**[19:04] ---**
You're the only one I'll tell the truth.
**[19:07] ---**
At the end, I'll show you my true form.
**[19:11] ---**
The real me.
**[19:14] ---**
Henry,
**[19:16] ---**
please love me.
**[19:24] ---**
Let's sin
**[19:27] ---**
and go to hell together.
**[19:32] ---**
Henry.
**[19:33] ---**
A demon instigated
every sin in this world.
**[19:37] ---**
That demon led you astray
with its demonic flesh.
**[19:44] ---**
Stop!
**[19:47] ---**
Henry.
**[19:48] ---**
The prophet said, the day you were born,
a terrible storm laid trees low.
**[19:56] ---**
Richard!
**[19:57] ---**
Your mother suffered
abnormal birthing pains!
**[20:02] ---**
And after all that, her child
**[20:04] ---**
looked nothing like its parents
and defied the will of God!
**[20:08] ---**
It was a blood-soaked demon!
**[20:11] ---**
One day, a host of people
who have lost children
**[20:14] ---**
Silence.
**[20:15] ---**
will lament the untimely
deaths you have caused.
**[20:18] ---**
Silence! Silence! Silence! Silence!
**[20:31] ---**
As they curse the day...
**[20:37] ---**
...of your birth.
**[20:49] ---**
Of the House of Lancaster,
only Anne Neville was pardoned.
**[20:54] ---**
Please have no fear.
**[20:56] ---**
We'll tend to Anne and the Neville
estate with the utmost care.
**[21:01] ---**
I won't let that woman's relatives
control the royal family.
**[21:04] ---**
Your inheritance and Anne's combined
make my power a match for the king's.
**[21:10] ---**
We should help her marry soon.
**[21:13] ---**
The thought of her plight worries me.
**[21:17] ---**
Especially the thought of allowing
George to hold such vast wealth.
**[21:23] ---**
Please wait!
**[21:25] ---**
Please!
**[21:26] ---**
Please allow me to mourn
King Henry's passing!
**[21:30] ---**
Lower the casket.
**[21:36] ---**
Pardon me, Lady Anne Neville.
**[21:39] ---**
You really did kill him?
**[21:44] ---**
I did.
**[21:45] ---**
--And my father!
--I killed him. Your husband too.
**[21:50] ---**
As Edward lay bound and sobbing,
I took my sword to his neck and--
**[21:54] ---**
Stop!
**[21:58] ---**
What? I've been feeling
strange for some time.
**[22:01] ---**
Don't tell me...
**[22:02] ---**
I became that way for love.
**[22:06] ---**
Love for you drove me.
**[22:09] ---**
Richard, I've thought of the
reward you'll enjoy most.
**[22:14] ---**
Marriage to Anne Neville.
**[22:17] ---**
You were my light.
**[22:20] ---**
In dream and reality, I sought for you.
**[22:25] ---**
If it would win me a moment
in your embrace,
**[22:29] ---**
I would even have slaughtered
every person in the world.
**[22:34] ---**
This is also for the Royal Family of York.
I trust you understand,
**[22:38] ---**
Richard?
**[22:40] ---**
If I cannot convince you,
please take this sword...
**[22:44] ---**
...and bury it in my breast.
**[22:50] ---**
Liar.
**[22:51] ---**
I'm not lying.
**[22:53] ---**
Tell me the truth.
**[22:56] ---**
Anne, I want you to marry me.
**[23:01] ---**
I'm certain he's not sincere.
**[23:05] ---**
After all, he... he...
**[23:11] ---**
Richard is dead--
**[23:15] ---**
died alone in the woods that day.
**[23:25] ---**
Thus, our play proceeds to its second
act amid a whirl of love and hate.
**[23:25] ---**
"Thus, on to act two"
**[23:29] ---**
If it will allow me to escape destiny,
**[23:32] ---**
I'll become a demon.
**[23:33] ---**
I'll make anyone who harms him pay,
whomever they may be!
**[23:36] ---**
Remember this pain.
**[23:37] ---**
"Part Two begins"
**[23:39] ---**
**[23:41] ---**

**[00:04] ---**
I am myself alone.
**[00:07] ---**
Therefore, demon,
**[00:09] ---**
refashion my mind to suit my body!
**[00:13] ---**
I that have neither pity, love, nor fear
**[00:16] ---**
shall send all who wish our house's
downfall straight to the pits of hell!
**[00:20] ---**
Behold our sun!
**[00:23] ---**
The winter of our discontent has passed!
**[00:30] ---**
Well? What do you think?
**[00:32] ---**
You look lovely, Princess Elizabeth.
**[00:34] ---**
Ugh! Elizabeth is my mother's name.
**[00:37] ---**
Call me "Beth."
**[00:39] ---**
You're making quite the effort.
**[00:41] ---**
Do you fancy some gentleman in attendance?
**[00:44] ---**
It's n-nothing like--
**[00:49] ---**
Are you hurt, my lady?
**[00:54] ---**
Uncle Richard!
**[00:56] ---**
Beth. You've grown into a
fine lady since I last saw you.
**[01:00] ---**
Anne! Tell Richard to visit
London more often!
**[01:04] ---**
Come this way.
The banquet is about to start.
**[01:08] ---**
Another day of ridiculous farce.
**[01:23] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:25] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:28] ---**
These royal houses with roses
for their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:34] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:17] ---**
Welcome, one and all!
**[03:19] ---**
Let us enjoy our summer!
**[03:22] ---**
God save King Edward IV!
**[03:24] ---**
God save King Edward IV!
**[03:30] ---**
Look, Father! A dragon!
**[03:32] ---**
Kill it! Kill it, Saint George!
**[03:35] ---**
Kill it! Kill it! Kill it!
**[03:37] ---**
But the script says--
**[03:39] ---**
Stand aside!
**[03:42] ---**
George! George!
**[03:43] ---**
Hooray!
**[03:45] ---**
Your Royal Highnesses,
**[03:47] ---**
your servant George, Duke of Clarence,
has slain the wicked dragon!
**[03:53] ---**
George! Are you drunk?!
Sheathe your sword!
**[03:58] ---**
You seem quite displeased
that I've reduced your authority.
**[04:02] ---**
Shut up.
**[04:14] ---**
Richard. Have you been well?
**[04:16] ---**
I have. How is your wife?
**[04:20] ---**
Mine is concerned for her as well.
**[04:22] ---**
She's well, thanks to you.
**[04:24] ---**
God took pity on me for losing
lands to my little brother
**[04:28] ---**
and blessed us with children.
**[04:31] ---**
Speaking of which, you're taking
a long time to make a second!
**[04:35] ---**
Don't tell me you're neglecting Anne.
**[04:38] ---**
Rumor has it that you've never
shared a bed since you married her.
**[04:41] ---**
Whose child is your only son?
Let's check if he looks like--
**[04:45] ---**
I don't feel well.
**[04:47] ---**
Please excuse me.
**[04:49] ---**
Here is what you've all been waiting for!
The "cakes of destiny"!
**[04:53] ---**
Please reach under the cloth
and take a cake!
**[04:55] ---**
The shape of your cake
predicts your future!
**[04:59] ---**
Fortune telling? Hogwash.
**[05:01] ---**
Hey! Bring me more wine!
**[05:08] ---**
For once, I agree with George.
**[05:15] ---**
How does this shape appear to you?
**[05:18] ---**
Hm...
**[05:19] ---**
What is it?
**[05:20] ---**
I've got it! It's a horseshoe!
**[05:25] ---**
Oh! I know, Father!
**[05:26] ---**
It's a letter G!
**[05:30] ---**
I beg your pardon!
**[05:32] ---**
It was the children's fault,
and more importantly...
**[05:35] ---**
Hastings, provide that good
woman with a new dress.
**[05:39] ---**
Of course.
**[05:41] ---**
Come with me.
**[05:51] ---**
The Duke of Gloucester,
**[05:53] ---**
Richard Plantagenet.
**[05:56] ---**
A bloodstained G, is it?
**[05:58] ---**
Buckingham. That isn't my future.
**[06:02] ---**
Then choose one for yourself.
**[06:04] ---**
I merely obey my sovereign.
**[06:06] ---**
With whose policy you seemed dissatisfied
in the recent French campaign.
**[06:11] ---**
Mind your tongue.
**[06:12] ---**
If you're thinking of Warwick's murder,
some lay the blame at Richard's feet.
**[06:18] ---**
I've long admired your virtue, Richard.
**[06:23] ---**
I'll make the choice with you.
We'll pick out your future.
**[06:31] ---**
Take any dress you like.
**[06:33] ---**
His Majesty bid me say as much.
**[06:36] ---**
I'll wait outside the door.
**[06:39] ---**
But I can hardly change
dresses all on my own.
**[06:46] ---**
Would you lend me a hand?
**[06:56] ---**
What say I assist you?
**[06:59] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[07:00] ---**
At first glance,
I knew what lurks within you.
**[07:06] ---**
Beauty and debauchery.
**[07:08] ---**
Your Majesty, I have a husband.
**[07:11] ---**
All the better.
**[07:12] ---**
Join us, Hastings.
**[07:14] ---**
Wait!
**[07:16] ---**
Please wait, Your Majesty!
**[07:19] ---**
Have you ever made use of this?
**[07:21] ---**
It is a miraculous elixir that inspires
sweet, licentious passion.
**[07:28] ---**
Who are you?
**[07:31] ---**
My name is Jane.
**[07:34] ---**
Have you ever slept with a witch,
Your Royal Majesty?
**[07:40] ---**
Can a witch predict the future?
**[07:44] ---**
She can read signs. Such as...
**[07:49] ---**
...those "cakes of destiny," for example.
**[07:56] ---**
He spent last night alone as well.
**[08:01] ---**
This body makes even
wishing for a wife a sin.
**[08:06] ---**
Or so I thought.
**[08:10] ---**
Shouldn't I join you?
**[08:13] ---**
You would only end up
feeling unwell again.
**[08:16] ---**
Father.
**[08:19] ---**
Richard, hold him before you set out.
**[08:27] ---**
You look as lovely as always.
**[08:30] ---**
Flowers should go to your mother,
**[08:33] ---**
Edward.
**[08:37] ---**
Farewell.
**[08:42] ---**
Let's see your father off.
**[08:46] ---**
He truly looks more like *him* every year.
**[08:50] ---**
I feel as though Richard reproaches me
every time he says Edward's name.
**[08:55] ---**
As though our loveless days
are the price I must pay.
**[08:59] ---**
You left your wife behind?
**[09:02] ---**
As did you.
**[09:03] ---**
I sleep with her enough from day to day.
**[09:06] ---**
The soul and the body
are separate matters.
**[09:09] ---**
I suppose.
**[09:12] ---**
If God gave us flesh to punish us,
**[09:17] ---**
then after all,
**[09:18] ---**
this body is just a prison of the soul...
**[09:22] ---**
The death of my soul brought me peace.
**[09:26] ---**
I would never have been
imprisoned without it.
**[09:32] ---**
Nothing beats drinking wine with my son.
**[09:35] ---**
Look! I drained it in no time!
**[09:37] ---**
George, why don't you drink a little less?
**[09:41] ---**
I hear you used wild words at the banquet.
**[09:43] ---**
I only spoke the truth!
**[09:45] ---**
Let me prophecy, my unfortunate son!
**[09:47] ---**
By the time you inherit, our house will be
reduced to penniless country gentlemen!
**[09:51] ---**
That's quite enough!
**[09:56] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[09:58] ---**
Everything I do turns out wrong.
**[10:01] ---**
There's no hope left for me.
**[10:05] ---**
George, you aren't hopeless at all.
**[10:08] ---**
You ought by all rights to rival the king.
**[10:12] ---**
Isabelle.
**[10:15] ---**
No matter how much you hate him,
you mustn't let it show.
**[10:19] ---**
Don't worry, and have faith in me.
**[10:23] ---**
I chose to stand by you,
even after you turned on my father.
**[10:28] ---**
I even sacrificed my own sister.
**[10:34] ---**
I've prepared what Your Grace requested.
**[10:38] ---**
Will it really work?
**[10:40] ---**
It will, Your Grace.
**[10:42] ---**
However,
**[10:44] ---**
every curse comes at a price.
**[10:47] ---**
I don't care.
**[10:50] ---**
It doesn't matter if I get to be queen.
**[10:53] ---**
You mean everything to me,
**[10:56] ---**
my George.
**[11:08] ---**
How's that?!
**[11:09] ---**
Marvelous, Your Highness!
**[11:10] ---**
How idiotic. He really is
a child if he enjoys that.
**[11:15] ---**
George never came.
**[11:18] ---**
I doubt he was invited. Hardly surprising
after the way he behaved last time.
**[11:23] ---**
And not only last time.
**[11:27] ---**
Father! Look at this!
**[11:31] ---**
I see.
**[11:32] ---**
It's nearly nightfall.
You should be in bed.
**[11:36] ---**
I'd still like to--
**[11:37] ---**
Take tonight to rest after
these days of feasting.
**[11:41] ---**
Would you find my presence inconvenient?
**[11:44] ---**
Did you say something?
**[11:48] ---**
Nothing at all.
**[11:50] ---**
So, the queen's spell has broken at last.
**[11:53] ---**
Another new witch
must have taken her place.
**[11:58] ---**
Yes. This is nothing unusual.
**[12:01] ---**
Still, while he's had
new favorites before,
**[12:05] ---**
he's never neglected me for any of them.
**[12:14] ---**
It doesn't matter.
I no longer need the king's love.
**[12:19] ---**
Mother?
**[12:22] ---**
I hold the winning hand:
**[12:25] ---**
my sons who will ascend the throne.
**[12:29] ---**
Now, gentlemen,
the remainder of the night is ours!
**[12:36] ---**
That woman.
**[12:38] ---**
Your Grace, please drink your fill.
**[12:47] ---**
My lords, I have prepared this
miraculous wine specially for tonight!
**[12:52] ---**
Welcome to Elysium!
**[13:04] ---**
He calls this "Elysium"?
**[13:08] ---**
To your brother, I suppose it is.
**[13:11] ---**
I believed that paradise
and light lay within that circlet.
**[13:18] ---**
Within that circlet lies paradise.
**[13:22] ---**
What?
**[13:23] ---**
My head is spinning.
**[13:25] ---**
Richard.
**[13:28] ---**
Father?
**[13:29] ---**
Join us.
**[13:35] ---**
Richard, this is paradise.
**[13:38] ---**
Yes, Richard. Have your fill of pleasure.
**[13:44] ---**
Relax your inhibitions.
**[13:48] ---**
Stop.
**[13:49] ---**
Please stop.
**[13:50] ---**
Demon! Demon! Demon!
**[13:55] ---**
My soul perished back then,
**[13:57] ---**
and yet it was so easily recalled.
**[14:01] ---**
--What a feeble "death."
--Hey! Richard!
**[14:03] ---**
Hang on!
**[14:07] ---**
They're mad.
**[14:09] ---**
This is no paradise.
**[14:13] ---**
That man...
**[14:15] ---**
That man...
**[14:18] ---**
...is not my father.
**[14:27] ---**
Where am I?
**[14:29] ---**
I remember nothing more.
**[14:31] ---**
Did someone touch this body of mine?
**[14:35] ---**
Your Grace.
**[14:37] ---**
Catesby.
**[14:40] ---**
Please forgive my impertinence.
**[14:44] ---**
The guests have dispersed.
**[14:46] ---**
I doubt anyone remembers
what happened last night.
**[14:50] ---**
Thank you.
**[14:52] ---**
I wish that I could have warned you.
**[14:55] ---**
Lord Hastings told me
that His Majesty's lover,
**[14:59] ---**
a woman called Jane,
can compound a variety of drugs.
**[15:03] ---**
You're more attuned to
court gossip than I am now.
**[15:07] ---**
My master, Lord Hastings,
is an intimate of the king.
**[15:15] ---**
I'm in your debt.
**[15:17] ---**
Your Grace, about that day--
**[15:18] ---**
Don't speak of it! It's over!
**[15:21] ---**
It all came to an end that day.
**[15:25] ---**
That aside, tell me about Jane.
**[15:29] ---**
This is merely a rumor,
**[15:32] ---**
but she apparently
termed herself a "witch."
**[15:37] ---**
A witch.
**[15:38] ---**
After tasting this, ordinary lovemaking
becomes merely a chore.
**[15:44] ---**
What once seemed to shine so brightly
**[15:47] ---**
always loses its luster
once it becomes mine.
**[15:50] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[15:52] ---**
But Jane is different.
**[15:54] ---**
The more I have of her, the more I want.
**[15:57] ---**
She'll lead me from this
dull throne to Elysium.
**[16:03] ---**
Is something the matter?
**[16:04] ---**
I've felt my health
declining rapidly of late.
**[16:08] ---**
Especially the day after my enjoy--
**[16:10] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[16:12] ---**
I'm merely a bit tired.
**[16:14] ---**
Now, would you summon Jane for me?
**[16:17] ---**
I'm certain that she'll give me
unlimited strength.
**[16:21] ---**
Fetch Jane. I'll keep watch
at His Majesty's side.
**[16:27] ---**
I doubt it's serious,
**[16:29] ---**
but don't let the court, and especially
Queen Elizabeth, hear of this.
**[16:39] ---**
I want to know who that woman really is.
**[16:42] ---**
If she is a witch, I'll simply...
**[16:45] ---**
Your Grace.
**[16:49] ---**
This is no festival.
**[16:51] ---**
Picture it in your mind.
**[16:53] ---**
And pray.
**[16:54] ---**
Pray!
**[16:55] ---**
Cast your anger and resentment...
**[16:57] ---**
...into this fire!
**[17:04] ---**
What's this?
**[17:09] ---**
"Death to King Edward"?
**[17:11] ---**
That's a cursed doll.
**[17:16] ---**
I wonder who could have
wished death on His Majesty.
**[17:20] ---**
F-Forgive me,
**[17:22] ---**
O Lord.
**[17:24] ---**
Isabelle! Are you all right?!
This is so sudden!
**[17:27] ---**
Her health has never
recovered from childbirth.
**[17:30] ---**
She gave birth more than six months ago!
**[17:33] ---**
I suspect that stress is also to blame.
**[17:36] ---**
Hang on, Isabelle!
**[17:38] ---**
Your Majesty, I can venture a guess
at the cause of your ailment.
**[17:43] ---**
At the identity of the one who cursed you.
**[17:46] ---**
My medicine... There...
**[17:51] ---**
Isabelle, all I've ever
done is let you down.
**[17:55] ---**
I'm truly sorry.
**[17:57] ---**
But I swear...
**[17:59] ---**
Let me swear that
I'll turn over a new leaf.
**[18:07] ---**
Cursing the king would
be the gravest of crimes!
**[18:10] ---**
Who is it? Tell me their name.
**[18:14] ---**
Your Majesty, do you remember
the "cakes of destiny"?
**[18:19] ---**
Red wine stands for blood,
and the capital G is an initial.
**[18:24] ---**
It can't be.
**[18:26] ---**
But it is. Bloodstained George.
**[18:30] ---**
I love you, Isabelle.
We'll always be together.
**[18:37] ---**
Right, Isabelle?
**[18:41] ---**
Isabelle? Isabelle!
**[18:44] ---**
But without proof...
**[18:46] ---**
Your Majesty, I have the proof here.
**[18:51] ---**
What's this?!
**[18:52] ---**
Those three dolls contained slips of paper
**[18:55] ---**
bearing wishes for the death
of Your Majesty and the princes.
**[19:00] ---**
But this isn't George's writing.
**[19:02] ---**
Your Majesty, entrust this matter to me.
**[19:05] ---**
I will question George about
the truth behind this "curse."
**[19:11] ---**
What are you after?
**[19:14] ---**
Is your plan to frame George
to convince me that you're a witch?
**[19:19] ---**
Who can say?
**[19:21] ---**
You won't escape suspicion.
**[19:24] ---**
The witch who made the palace a den
of vice will burn like Joan of Arc.
**[19:30] ---**
Did I make it a den of vice?
**[19:33] ---**
The king has forgotten war and
cares more for lust than his realm.
**[19:38] ---**
His younger brother is a sot
**[19:40] ---**
whose emotional outbursts make him
the House of York's Achilles' heel.
**[19:45] ---**
Am I wrong?
**[19:46] ---**
What's your point?
**[19:48] ---**
I've taken an interest in you.
**[19:50] ---**
Unlike other men, what's within
you promises complexity.
**[19:55] ---**
Know your place!
**[19:57] ---**
Merely a jest.
Nobles seek meaning in everything.
**[20:01] ---**
I have no goals;
I simply wish to enjoy life.
**[20:09] ---**
I'll go on alone from here.
**[20:11] ---**
--But...
--If you swear allegiance to York,
**[20:14] ---**
forget this and depart!
**[20:17] ---**
If we let that witch live, she'll serve
as a check against the queen.
**[20:21] ---**
George, however, is now only a thorn
in the House of York's side.
**[20:25] ---**
And as he threatens York,
**[20:29] ---**
I will arrest George.
**[20:38] ---**
Why didn't you invite me?
**[20:40] ---**
I've been looking for you.
**[20:42] ---**
I saw you set out with your man.
**[20:45] ---**
You overheard us?
**[20:47] ---**
However often you deny it--
**[20:48] ---**
Buckingham, assist me.
**[20:52] ---**
You mean it?
**[20:53] ---**
Wait. There's something I must know first.
**[20:57] ---**
Are you hiding anything from me?
**[21:01] ---**
Swear that you have no secrets from me.
**[21:03] ---**
If we're to be partners,
we must share everything.
**[21:08] ---**
I swear it.
**[21:11] ---**
In that case, Richard,
**[21:14] ---**
my king, order me, and I shall
grant your every wish.
**[21:19] ---**
You're mistaken about one thing.
Catesby isn't my man.
**[21:24] ---**
Is he not? He still seems
to be serving you admirably.
**[21:29] ---**
As one who swears allegiance to York,
I will accompany you.
**[21:35] ---**
As you wish.
**[21:37] ---**
Let's go.
**[21:38] ---**
We'll eliminate those who would
harm York by any means necessary.
**[21:43] ---**
I did touch it back then.
**[21:47] ---**
I touched my future.

**[00:01] ---**
Say, have you heard?
**[00:03] ---**
Yes. I suppose the rumors were true.
**[00:06] ---**
A "G" really will doom the royal family.
**[00:10] ---**
George can no longer
make rational decisions.
**[00:13] ---**
It was simple to lay the blame on him.
**[00:16] ---**
I can hardly believe that
George really was cursing me.
**[00:22] ---**
Still, I won't charge him yet.
I'll keep him under surveillance.
**[00:26] ---**
He may come to his senses given time.
**[00:29] ---**
But what example will it set
if he goes unpunished for--
**[00:32] ---**
Richard, I could not be more
grateful for your efforts.
**[00:37] ---**
It's a little early,
but this banquet is over!
**[00:40] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[00:41] ---**
Yes, your health comes first.
**[00:44] ---**
We should have killed him.
**[00:47] ---**
That's always the way.
**[00:48] ---**
Hope makes people mad.
**[00:51] ---**
I wish for a family celebration today.
**[00:55] ---**
Richard!
**[00:56] ---**
We're going out on the town tonight!
Join us!
**[01:05] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:07] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:10] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:16] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:56] ---**
Your Majesty!
Please make yourself at home!
**[03:00] ---**
I've brought my brothers along!
**[03:04] ---**
I thought Your Majesty had forgotten us
in your obsession with that woman.
**[03:09] ---**
She's a rose, but you're lilies.
**[03:12] ---**
All flowers are beautiful.
**[03:14] ---**
I'm so disgusted I'm actually impressed.
**[03:17] ---**
This isn't the first time.
**[03:19] ---**
I'll simply wait it out as I always do.
**[03:25] ---**
Tell the king I enjoyed myself.
**[03:27] ---**
I'll while the time away as I see fit.
**[03:30] ---**
Please. I'll work for my pay.
**[03:33] ---**
I'll merely do as I'm bid,
as long as it's for York.
**[03:37] ---**
How rude!
**[03:39] ---**
What's this? A whore putting on airs?
**[03:41] ---**
Drink up!
**[03:46] ---**
Wh-Who the devil are you?!
**[03:47] ---**
The Duke of Gloucester,
**[03:49] ---**
Richard Plantagenet.
**[03:52] ---**
B-Beg pardon, Your Grace!
**[03:57] ---**
Thank you, Richard!
**[04:00] ---**
Are you drunk, Beth?
**[04:02] ---**
I know! Let's party together!
**[04:07] ---**
No. This place isn't proper for you to--
**[04:10] ---**
Then we'll go out on the town!
**[04:12] ---**
I've always wanted to see it!
**[04:16] ---**
Look at this! Doesn't it suit me?
**[04:21] ---**
A princess out at night in men's garb?
What's the world coming to?
**[04:24] ---**
It's better than letting
her run off alone.
**[04:27] ---**
Please bless me!
**[04:29] ---**
May the Lord save me,
whom my parents abandoned!
**[04:32] ---**
Sin begot sickness,
and a demon took hold of my flesh!
**[04:37] ---**
What difference is there
between him and me?
**[04:40] ---**
Without the protective cloak of rank and
name, this body would make me like him.
**[04:44] ---**
I've seen you before.
**[04:47] ---**
We've met somewhere,
haven't we, my good sir?
**[04:50] ---**
Get back.
**[04:51] ---**
Too good for me, are you?!
**[04:53] ---**
You look like some drifter,
just like we are!
**[04:57] ---**
Just like him?
**[05:02] ---**
Yes! I won!
**[05:05] ---**
Remember, you all swore to obey
the "king's" orders if you lost!
**[05:09] ---**
I'm as good as my word.
**[05:12] ---**
Command me, Your Majesty.
**[05:14] ---**
Ahem!
**[05:16] ---**
Very well. Your sovereign orders you...
**[05:20] ---**
...to each tell me who
your first love was!
**[05:24] ---**
No one.
**[05:25] ---**
What?! No way! What about your wife?!
**[05:28] ---**
Never.
**[05:29] ---**
Unbelievable. I was hoping
for some lovely stories.
**[05:34] ---**
You'll both tell me something
romantic, won't you?
**[05:39] ---**
It was my wife.
**[05:40] ---**
I knew it!
**[05:42] ---**
You married your first love!
You and Anne really are a perfect couple!
**[05:48] ---**
And what about you, Catesby?
**[05:50] ---**
I'm curious as well.
**[05:52] ---**
Did a stick in the mud like you
ever care for women?
**[05:56] ---**
Ridiculous. Of course not.
**[05:58] ---**
Yes.
**[06:02] ---**
I have loved only one person in my life.
**[06:06] ---**
What is she like? Are you still together?
**[06:10] ---**
I had no idea you cared
for anyone in that way.
**[06:15] ---**
Is this person kind?
**[06:18] ---**
They are.
**[06:20] ---**
I see.
**[06:21] ---**
--Your Grace--
--I'm king this time.
**[06:26] ---**
I've decided on my order.
**[06:28] ---**
Richard, kiss whichever
of us you most trust.
**[06:33] ---**
Your Grace!
**[06:35] ---**
You can't do that!
**[06:37] ---**
It's a royal command.
Aren't you the most loyal of all?
**[06:46] ---**
Hope makes people mad.
**[06:52] ---**
It's just as you said, Buckingham.
**[06:57] ---**
Merely a jest, Richard.
**[07:01] ---**
Is it over?
**[07:02] ---**
Yes. That's enough of nightlife.
**[07:13] ---**
A long time ago, he carried me
a long way on his back.
**[07:22] ---**
People don't change.
**[07:24] ---**
If you feel as though someone has,
you just didn't know them well enough.
**[07:31] ---**
Richard, become ruthless.
**[07:34] ---**
You still have hope for people.
**[07:37] ---**
If you give that up, you'll be able
to have hope for yourself.
**[07:42] ---**
Like you do?
**[07:44] ---**
Yes.
**[07:47] ---**
I am like no one else.
**[07:52] ---**
I am myself alone.
**[07:56] ---**
If this body gives me any cause
for hope, it is only my blood.
**[08:01] ---**
The blood of York will conceal
the sin of this body.
**[08:06] ---**
Not even God can overcome its authority.
**[08:12] ---**
Buckingham.
**[08:16] ---**
Kill George.
**[08:20] ---**
As you wish.
**[08:27] ---**
I know an assassin named James Tyrrell.
**[08:30] ---**
He will perform any dirty job
to perfect so long as he is paid.
**[08:34] ---**
I'll convey your orders to his go-between.
**[08:37] ---**
Simply killing him is not enough.
**[08:40] ---**
With George gone,
the queen's power will grow.
**[08:44] ---**
Then we need only convince the king
**[08:47] ---**
that the Woodvilles drove
George to his death.
**[08:51] ---**
Tell me your plan.
**[08:55] ---**
Richard, you're going to
see George, aren't you?
**[08:58] ---**
Hello, Mother.
**[09:00] ---**
I knew that this day
would come eventually.
**[09:05] ---**
What do you mean?
**[09:08] ---**
Lady Cecily!
**[09:09] ---**
Richard!
**[09:11] ---**
You may fool the rest of them,
but never me!
**[09:13] ---**
You're a demon that destroys everything!
**[09:16] ---**
O Lord!
**[09:18] ---**
Please keep my dear sons safe!
**[09:27] ---**
M-Mother...?
**[09:30] ---**
George.
**[09:33] ---**
Richard?!
**[09:34] ---**
G-Give me wine!
This is more than I can bear!
**[09:39] ---**
A sentence of death
will be pronounced today.
**[09:42] ---**
Impossible! I haven't been
summoned to court!
**[09:44] ---**
Those demons that thrive around
the king arranged it all.
**[09:49] ---**
So, the Woodvilles are to blame!
**[09:51] ---**
George, I can't leave you like this.
**[09:56] ---**
Richard.
**[09:58] ---**
You're the only ally I have.
**[10:00] ---**
Yes. I'll save you,
even if I must take your place.
**[10:13] ---**
That man's crimes against
His Royal Majesty are unpardonable.
**[10:16] ---**
They are an act of treason
and an affront to God!
**[10:20] ---**
Thus, capital punishment is--
**[10:21] ---**
Wait!
**[10:22] ---**
Do you mean to murder me
without so much as a trial?!
**[10:26] ---**
Who called for my execution?!
**[10:28] ---**
You there! Seize him!
**[10:29] ---**
Quiet, you shameless Woodville!
**[10:32] ---**
You've risen in rank,
but your soul's as lowly as ever!
**[10:35] ---**
Go back to hell, you clan of demons!
**[10:38] ---**
I will not hear this.
**[10:40] ---**
Listen, everyone!
**[10:41] ---**
Demons are manipulating the king
into selling England to the devil!
**[10:46] ---**
I am their human sacrifice!
**[10:49] ---**
Edward is a murderer!
**[10:50] ---**
--Someone, seize him this instant!
--This faithless king must pay!
**[10:55] ---**
Don't touch me!
**[10:57] ---**
If you kill me, you'll go to hell!
**[10:59] ---**
God would thank his killer.
**[11:02] ---**
It's high time you told your brother
**[11:05] ---**
that he's not the man on trial here.
**[11:10] ---**
Die for the royal family anointed by God,
**[11:14] ---**
my brother.
**[11:21] ---**
This is open rebellion!
**[11:23] ---**
He called us a clan of demons
in front of everyone!
**[11:26] ---**
He must certainly be stripped of power.
**[11:28] ---**
Too lenient!
This isn't his first betrayal!
**[11:31] ---**
Your Majesty, the queen has suffered
the greatest slight to her honor.
**[11:36] ---**
My honor is of little concern.
**[11:39] ---**
But a slight to the king's honor must not
go unpunished no matter its source.
**[11:46] ---**
If he lets it stand...
**[11:47] ---**
We'll have a real rebellion next!
**[11:49] ---**
Treason will beget further treason.
**[11:53] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[11:57] ---**
Send wine to his cell.
**[11:59] ---**
Before his execution.
**[12:10] ---**
I doubt Mother will ever forgive me.
**[12:14] ---**
George was always her favorite.
**[12:18] ---**
When we were little, she would tell him
stories about the witch of the forest.
**[12:25] ---**
They scared him so much that
he'd come to hide in my bed.
**[12:31] ---**
He'd say that children who got lost
in the woods became witches.
**[12:35] ---**
He thought I became a witch?
**[12:38] ---**
He's a pure soul; he'll believe anything.
**[12:41] ---**
Divine miracles and
demonic whisperings alike.
**[12:48] ---**
Who's there?
**[12:50] ---**
You're no guard.
**[12:52] ---**
My last supper?
**[12:55] ---**
Royal dignity didn't amount
to much in the end.
**[12:59] ---**
I merely exchanged peaceful
rest for suspicion and sorrow.
**[13:05] ---**
I never dreamed of this back then.
**[13:10] ---**
I assumed that family ties
would last forever.
**[13:14] ---**
But I have one hope left.
One last ray of light.
**[13:19] ---**
Only my little brother.
He promised to save me.
**[13:26] ---**
George was a bungling man,
but a lovable brother.
**[13:31] ---**
He did betray me once,
but he returned to me in the end.
**[13:37] ---**
He swore his fealty to me.
**[13:40] ---**
I don't wish to feud with him anymore,
but I can't avoid fraternal conflict.
**[13:47] ---**
Not so long as I am king.
**[13:52] ---**
He sent you to rescue me?
**[13:55] ---**
How compassionate he is.
**[13:58] ---**
Please take your rest, Brother.
**[14:00] ---**
No.
**[14:02] ---**
It won't do.
**[14:03] ---**
I'll rescind the order.
**[14:05] ---**
I'll cancel George's execution!
**[14:07] ---**
Yes. Let us spare him.
**[14:11] ---**
Richard.
**[14:12] ---**
Are you Richard's man?
**[14:15] ---**
Here to rescue--
**[14:17] ---**
Where do I know you from?
**[14:33] ---**
No.
**[14:34] ---**
Please... Save me.
**[14:36] ---**
Good night.
**[14:39] ---**
Brother.
**[14:51] ---**
Jewels, gold...
**[14:55] ---**
What good are they now?
**[15:01] ---**
Oh. This must be hell.
**[15:11] ---**
George.
**[15:32] ---**
George is dead?
But I countermanded his execution.
**[15:36] ---**
He likely took his own life in his grief.
**[15:38] ---**
Why?!
**[15:40] ---**
Why did no one plead for his life?!
**[15:43] ---**
Why did no one warn me not
to take my brother's life?!
**[15:47] ---**
Far from it, you incited me
to order his death!
**[15:50] ---**
All of you did!
**[15:52] ---**
--What? But...
--Leave us! This instant!
**[15:57] ---**
--Your Majesty!
--Your Majesty!
**[15:58] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[15:59] ---**
Stay strong!
**[16:02] ---**
This is absurd!
**[16:03] ---**
He plans to blame this all on us?!
**[16:06] ---**
He wanted George gone more than anyone!
**[16:09] ---**
He may be secretly relieved,
but he can't show it.
**[16:12] ---**
How dare you besmirch His Majesty!
**[16:15] ---**
It seems His Majesty's
survival is in doubt.
**[16:19] ---**
Now George is dead, what will
happen if the king dies, too?
**[16:23] ---**
Perish the thought!
**[16:25] ---**
There's nothing to worry about.
**[16:27] ---**
He has a fine, legitimate
prince to succeed him.
**[16:33] ---**
The prince is still a child.
He'll need someone to govern for him.
**[16:37] ---**
And I suppose you think
that should be you?!
**[16:40] ---**
With George gone,
**[16:42] ---**
is not the king's brother, the Duke
of Gloucester, the natural choice?
**[16:47] ---**
W-Well...
**[16:48] ---**
Nevertheless, when you consider
how we Woodvilles have labored for--
**[16:52] ---**
Richard and the rest of us have been
shedding blood for His Majesty!
**[16:57] ---**
We've been fighting for him since
the Woodvilles were Lancastrian!
**[17:01] ---**
Isn't that right, Your Majesty?
**[17:03] ---**
Lord Hastings!
**[17:07] ---**
Yes, it is.
**[17:10] ---**
And my husband died
in battle at St. Albans.
**[17:13] ---**
His corpse was disgracefully
plundered and dumped in an alley,
**[17:19] ---**
leaving only this single memento.
**[17:28] ---**
I am no longer the widowed Lady Grey.
**[17:33] ---**
I am the wife of Edward Plantagenet
and the Queen of England!
**[17:39] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[17:41] ---**
Please, all of you, be silent.
**[17:44] ---**
To squabble on a day like this is
an insult to my brother's passing.
**[17:49] ---**
Despising each other as foes is
a suffering more bitter than death.
**[17:55] ---**
I can endure no more such torment.
**[18:00] ---**
W-Well said. I may have
been a touch indecorous.
**[18:04] ---**
Forgive me, Richard.
**[18:12] ---**
I'm impressed. You silenced mighty
nobles with a single tear.
**[18:17] ---**
Not even a witch could do that.
**[18:19] ---**
This makes one less person
between you and the throne.
**[18:24] ---**
Who will it be next? The princes?
**[18:27] ---**
The king?
**[18:29] ---**
I will merely eliminate anyone
who threatens the royal family.
**[18:34] ---**
Even someone you love?
**[18:38] ---**
Yes.
**[18:39] ---**
I even killed the person
I love most in this world.
**[18:45] ---**
I'll return to my duchy for now.
**[18:51] ---**
What a ruckus.
**[18:53] ---**
Your Grace, allow me to deliver a warning
**[18:57] ---**
about your precious sovereign.
**[19:01] ---**
A man in the city is spreading
rumors about his body's secret.
**[19:06] ---**
What secret?
**[19:08] ---**
Oh, my. Don't tell me you didn't know.
**[19:11] ---**
Explain yourself.
**[19:13] ---**
Why not investigate for yourself?
**[19:16] ---**
A secret?
**[19:19] ---**
He swore that he had none from me!
**[19:48] ---**
There's no reason to mourn.
**[19:51] ---**
It will all serve to sustain
our precious York.
**[19:56] ---**
Who's there? No one is to enter
my chambers without--
**[20:00] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[20:02] ---**
What's wrong?
**[20:04] ---**
I had a dream that you
passed away, Father.
**[20:07] ---**
There was a war, and you... you...
**[20:21] ---**
I've emerged victorious from many battles.
**[20:24] ---**
I won't die so easily.
**[20:27] ---**
Truly?
**[20:29] ---**
I need my son to have more courage.
**[20:33] ---**
You're the Earl of Salisbury now.
**[20:36] ---**
Do you feel better?
**[20:40] ---**
I want you to hug me.
**[20:44] ---**
I-I'm sorry! I'll get stronger!
**[20:48] ---**
Come here.
**[20:57] ---**
Please! Listen to what I have to say!
**[21:00] ---**
A demon in the palace? Don't talk rubbish.
**[21:02] ---**
Listen! This is important!
**[21:04] ---**
I haven't got time for your fantasies!
**[21:07] ---**
It's true!
**[21:08] ---**
He's the demon child from back then!
**[21:11] ---**
Listen to me!
**[21:14] ---**
Your Grace. What brings you here?
**[21:18] ---**
What brings you?
**[21:21] ---**
Of course.
**[21:22] ---**
You've been a loyal servant to our king.
**[21:25] ---**
Tell me.
**[21:27] ---**
What secret does Richard's body hide?
**[21:30] ---**
So, you do know.
**[21:32] ---**
Why didn't Richard tell me?
**[21:34] ---**
Speak! What are you hiding?!
**[21:40] ---**
I'll make anyone who harms him pay,
whomever they may be!
**[21:46] ---**
Your Grace!
**[21:47] ---**
His Royal Majesty has...!

**[00:01] ---**
O Lord, please save my father.
**[00:11] ---**
That was a superb performance,
**[00:14] ---**
my queen.
**[00:21] ---**
Edward had everything that I never could.
**[00:26] ---**
He was the spitting image
of our father and a perfect man.
**[00:30] ---**
But...
**[00:31] ---**
You look dreadful.
**[00:36] ---**
Richard...
**[00:41] ---**
You're no longer a king.
**[00:44] ---**
It's time to die, Brother.
**[00:49] ---**
Your time has come, Edward.
**[00:54] ---**
Let us go to atone for the sins that not
even a royal fortune could spare you.
**[01:05] ---**
As you say,
**[01:08] ---**
Warwick.
**[01:15] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:17] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:20] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:26] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:06] ---**
In the name of the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Ghost. Amen.
**[03:31] ---**
That was certainly abrupt.
**[03:33] ---**
Death takes irresistibly
and without warning.
**[03:38] ---**
Just like killing on the battlefield.
**[03:41] ---**
Death must be busy.
**[03:46] ---**
Buckingham, do you remember
the first person you killed?
**[03:52] ---**
No. What of it?
**[03:55] ---**
I just recalled mine.
**[03:58] ---**
John Grey,
**[04:00] ---**
Elizabeth's former husband.
**[04:03] ---**
I'd heard he was slain
by some nameless soldier.
**[04:07] ---**
Why tell me this?
**[04:09] ---**
I swore to keep no secrets.
**[04:18] ---**
I wagered all I have on you.
**[04:21] ---**
Don't betray me.
**[04:27] ---**
Today is All Fool's Day!
**[04:29] ---**
Men are women, and children are adults!
**[04:32] ---**
In this world gone mad,
a beggar can even become a king!
**[04:37] ---**
Would you like a crown of your own?
**[04:40] ---**
I could never be king.
**[04:44] ---**
Why not? This is a world gone mad.
**[04:48] ---**
Even a demon could be king here.
**[04:51] ---**
Your Grace, I bring urgent
tidings from Lord Hastings.
**[04:55] ---**
Earl Rivers means to
make himself Protector.
**[04:58] ---**
He is escorting the Prince of Wales
to the palace with a large army.
**[05:03] ---**
I have troops in readiness as well.
**[05:06] ---**
I'll leave to meet the prince at once.
**[05:08] ---**
By escorting the new king and
making a show of our dignity
**[05:12] ---**
I, Anthony Woodville, Earl Rivers,
shall secure my place as Protector.
**[05:17] ---**
Fetching the prince isn't your only job.
**[05:22] ---**
You're to seize Richard
and bring him to the Tower.
**[05:26] ---**
He murdered John.
I mean to execute him personally.
**[05:32] ---**
Thank you for telling me
the truth about John's death.
**[05:37] ---**
Buckingham, my kingmaker.
**[05:42] ---**
Once he learns of Earl Rivers's actions,
**[05:45] ---**
he's certain to give chase
at the head of a large army.
**[05:49] ---**
You're to call on him alone
and dine amicably with him.
**[05:53] ---**
Once he's off his guard,
arrest him for treason.
**[05:57] ---**
But what if his troops surround me?
**[06:00] ---**
In that event, the troops
I have in readiness
**[06:06] ---**
will kill Richard.
**[06:10] ---**
Ugh! What are these clothes?!
**[06:12] ---**
I don't want to go to the palace in these!
**[06:15] ---**
Your Royal Highness--
**[06:16] ---**
Call me "Majesty"!
**[06:17] ---**
I am your king!
**[06:19] ---**
M-My apologies, Your Majesty.
**[06:22] ---**
Spoiled little shit.
**[06:24] ---**
And I lack for companions.
**[06:26] ---**
Why hasn't Richard joined us?
**[06:29] ---**
He's close at hand.
Earl Rivers has gone to fetch him.
**[06:33] ---**
Please, Your Majesty,
take your ease here tonight.
**[06:42] ---**
Welcome, Richard!
I've been waiting for you!
**[06:45] ---**
Earl Rivers. Is this your whole party?
**[06:48] ---**
It is. What of it?
**[06:50] ---**
He's supposed to have an army.
What's the meaning of this?
**[06:55] ---**
Where is the Prince of Wales?
**[06:57] ---**
Pardon my saying so, but you
appear too few for his guard.
**[07:01] ---**
Now, let us rest from our travels!
**[07:05] ---**
I was certain that you would come!
**[07:07] ---**
I take it you've brought
these forces to defend us?
**[07:13] ---**
Oh, my dear brother-in-law!
**[07:16] ---**
For the sake of His Late Majesty's repose,
**[07:18] ---**
let us join hands in support
of our new sovereign!
**[07:22] ---**
Have some wine.
**[07:23] ---**
We shall both enjoy ourselves this night!
**[07:31] ---**
The earl seems to have drunk too much.
Bear him to his chambers.
**[07:36] ---**
I'll retire as well.
**[07:39] ---**
It appears your master's
fears were unfounded.
**[07:43] ---**
I hope so, but I'm not so sure.
**[07:48] ---**
"Join hands in support
of our new sovereign"?
**[07:51] ---**
I desire stability for
the Royal Family of York.
**[07:54] ---**
I even sacrificed George to secure it.
**[07:59] ---**
That day, why did my father
decide to become king?
**[08:04] ---**
A light that I can wish
for but never obtain.
**[08:10] ---**
Who goes there?!
**[08:12] ---**
A thief?
**[08:17] ---**
I suggest you keep quiet.
**[08:19] ---**
If the truth about your body gets out,
you'll burn at the stake.
**[08:24] ---**
Who are you?
**[08:26] ---**
Forgotten, have you?
I remember you clear as day.
**[08:32] ---**
In an abandoned shack in the woods
**[08:35] ---**
was a child in a dirty cloak
and ill-fitting chain mail.
**[08:38] ---**
And beneath it lay...
**[08:42] ---**
...a demon's body.
**[08:44] ---**
It can't be! You were there?
**[08:47] ---**
You must think your soldiers
will keep you safe.
**[08:51] ---**
Well, I've got an army on my side too.
**[08:55] ---**
Isn't that right,
**[08:56] ---**
Your Grace, the Duke of Buckingham?
**[08:58] ---**
Buckingham?!
**[09:00] ---**
Won't you deny this man's ravings?
**[09:06] ---**
What are you after?!
**[09:10] ---**
Do it.
**[09:16] ---**
Look. This proves he's a demon.
**[09:26] ---**
I wasn't convinced until
I saw with my own eyes.
**[09:29] ---**
Now do you get it?
**[09:31] ---**
He's a demon, sent into the royal
family to bring England to ruin!
**[09:36] ---**
It's strange. I feel nothing.
**[09:39] ---**
This is a natural outcome.
**[09:42] ---**
Light
**[09:43] ---**
will never shine on a demon.
**[09:47] ---**
I knew God was watching over me.
**[09:50] ---**
Now, where's the title and gold
you promised me, Your Grace?!
**[09:54] ---**
I'll grant your wish.
**[10:02] ---**
What is this about?
**[10:04] ---**
Any further conversation would
lower the value of my soul.
**[10:09] ---**
Are you going to execute me?
**[10:12] ---**
Earl Rivers will arrest you
for treason at dawn.
**[10:17] ---**
The Woodvilles have no intention
of sharing power with you.
**[10:21] ---**
And with this body,
you're hardly "worthy" of the crown.
**[10:26] ---**
I see.
**[10:29] ---**
Why did you hide it from me?
**[10:31] ---**
Did you think the knowledge
would make me despair?
**[10:35] ---**
Did you fear to lose me?
**[10:39] ---**
You?
**[10:40] ---**
Yes. When we first met,
I took you for a woman.
**[10:44] ---**
And my imagination was correct.
**[10:46] ---**
Stop! I'm--
**[10:47] ---**
A man? True, you are that.
**[10:51] ---**
But has your "womanhood" ever known love?
**[10:54] ---**
You've always lived with
your true self hidden.
**[10:58] ---**
I can tell.
**[11:00] ---**
We're two of a kind.
**[11:04] ---**
If you offer your hidden self to me,
I'll be the partner of a demon.
**[11:11] ---**
Demon.
**[11:12] ---**
Demon.
**[11:13] ---**
Bloodstained demon...
**[11:15] ---**
Who defied...
**[11:16] ---**
...the will of God.
**[11:18] ---**
Richard, this is your last chance.
**[11:20] ---**
Will you seize your desire,
or perish empty-handed?
**[11:27] ---**
Come.
**[11:30] ---**
Say it. What do you truly want?
**[11:34] ---**
Admit that you want
what you've always desired!
**[11:40] ---**
I want...
**[11:43] ---**
What do you want?
**[11:46] ---**
I want...
**[11:47] ---**
I want the crown!
**[11:51] ---**
I'll give you the crown.
**[11:56] ---**
Remember this pain.
**[11:59] ---**
It's the seal of our pact.
**[12:02] ---**
The pain of our mutual sin.
**[12:06] ---**
I prayed and wished, but the voices
of my curse never faded.
**[12:12] ---**
If the lost warmth I've foolishly
clung to can never be mine again,
**[12:18] ---**
if it will allow me to escape destiny...
**[12:23] ---**
I'll become a demon.
**[12:36] ---**
Are you awake?
**[12:39] ---**
I've had fresh clothes prepared for you.
**[12:42] ---**
I'll help you dress.
**[12:45] ---**
The Woodvilles believe
that I've betrayed you.
**[12:49] ---**
Your Grace.
**[12:51] ---**
Don't worry. Last night,
**[12:56] ---**
I carried Richard to bed.
**[13:00] ---**
Now, Rivers must be dreaming
of himself on the throne about now.
**[13:11] ---**
Good morning, Earl Rivers.
**[13:14] ---**
Goodness. I drank too much
last night to put him off his guard.
**[13:18] ---**
Now, is all as we planned?
**[13:20] ---**
Naturally.
**[13:23] ---**
This will make me the
mightiest man in England!
**[13:26] ---**
I'll be kinglier than the king!
**[13:30] ---**
Anthony Woodville, Earl Rivers,
commands you in the king's name!
**[13:34] ---**
Seize the traitor!
**[13:37] ---**
Wh-What are you doing?!
Don't arrest *me*! Seize--
**[13:40] ---**
Earl Rivers.
**[13:42] ---**
R-Richard!
**[13:44] ---**
Stop! Damn it all!
**[13:45] ---**
You betrayed me, Buckingham!
**[13:47] ---**
I've merely seen justice done.
**[13:50] ---**
*You* are the traitor.
**[13:53] ---**
Rivers.
**[14:00] ---**
Unhand me! What's this about?!
**[14:02] ---**
My mother will make you pay!
**[14:04] ---**
--Imprison the rebels in my castle.
--I said, unhand me! Let go!
**[14:07] ---**
--Buckingham,
--Don't you know who I am?!
**[14:09] ---**
--we're going to collect
His Royal Highness.
--Take your filthy hands off me!
**[14:13] ---**
The prince is here!
**[14:15] ---**
It's Prince Edward--I mean, King Edward V!
**[14:19] ---**
God save the king!
**[14:20] ---**
God save His Royal Majesty!
**[14:22] ---**
God save the king!
**[14:26] ---**
At last...
**[14:27] ---**
At last, the time has come!
**[14:29] ---**
My blood--Woodville blood--
will rule over the blood of York.
**[14:34] ---**
John, I'll bless and avenge your death.
**[14:39] ---**
Richard the sinner! You will paint
this festival red with your blood
**[14:44] ---**
without so much as setting
foot in London again.
**[14:49] ---**
Your Majesty, and my beloved younger bro--
**[14:53] ---**
Mother!
**[15:00] ---**
I have just returned,
**[15:03] ---**
my dear sister-in-law.
**[15:05] ---**
Mother!
**[15:10] ---**
Richard.
**[15:12] ---**
Where are my brother and Grey?
**[15:15] ---**
Queen Elizabeth, I bear
regrettable tidings on that subject.
**[15:19] ---**
I wanted to hurry on to London,
**[15:22] ---**
but Rivers and Grey went
and got themselves arrested!
**[15:25] ---**
Wh-What?
**[15:27] ---**
They spoke honeyed words and
concealed venom in their hearts.
**[15:33] ---**
They schemed to charge me
with crimes I did not commit.
**[15:37] ---**
Impossible! Nonsense!
**[15:39] ---**
He's the one who plotted rebellion!
**[15:41] ---**
Guards! Seize Gloucester!
**[15:45] ---**
Curse you useless lot!
**[15:47] ---**
Dorset has taken leave of his
senses! Defend His Majesty!
**[15:50] ---**
What?! Damn you!
**[15:53] ---**
Wait! Don't let him escape!
**[15:54] ---**
Dorset.
**[15:56] ---**
I don't believe it.
He abandoned his mother and fled.
**[16:01] ---**
You are safe now, Your Majesty.
**[16:04] ---**
I shall purge England of all villains
who would disturb its peace.
**[16:10] ---**
Let us proceed to the palace.
**[16:14] ---**
What could have happened?
**[16:16] ---**
This...
**[16:18] ---**
This can't be...
**[16:22] ---**
The palace is now free of your enemies.
**[16:26] ---**
Does Elizabeth still trust you?
**[16:30] ---**
I have many ways to ensure that she does.
**[16:34] ---**
She's even called me her "kingmaker."
**[16:38] ---**
What, are you jealous?
**[16:41] ---**
You're *my* kingmaker.
**[16:44] ---**
Elizabeth still has her uses.
Pretend to be her ally.
**[16:49] ---**
Of course, my king.
**[16:52] ---**
Your Grace.
**[16:53] ---**
His Majesty summons you.
**[16:56] ---**
Very well.
**[17:03] ---**
Spying is a fine hobby. I'll let you
watch to the end next time.
**[17:08] ---**
I told you that I'll show no mercy
to anyone who harms His Grace.
**[17:14] ---**
But if he wishes it,
even if it will harm him...
**[17:19] ---**
I've become a demon's partner
to grant Richard's wishes.
**[17:25] ---**
Can you do as much?
**[17:27] ---**
Can you stain your hands with God's blood?
**[17:33] ---**
He discovered the whole plot,
**[17:35] ---**
including your involvement.
**[17:39] ---**
Don't you mean that
you revealed it to him?
**[17:43] ---**
Or have you been in league
with him all along?
**[17:47] ---**
Never. I have proof.
**[17:50] ---**
Or should I say... a witness?
**[17:55] ---**
Mother.
**[17:56] ---**
Beth?!
**[17:58] ---**
I asked Buckingham to help Richard.
**[18:02] ---**
What?!
**[18:04] ---**
I can never face him with
a smile again because of you!
**[18:08] ---**
Uncle Anthony and Grey
only got their just deserts!
**[18:11] ---**
You should be grateful that
Buckingham still forgave you!
**[18:17] ---**
Consider a wise daughter
your greatest treasure.
**[18:20] ---**
I suggest you give up open involvement
in government and seek sanctuary.
**[18:26] ---**
That will spare Richard a
dreadful decision as well.
**[18:32] ---**
I see I have no choice.
**[18:35] ---**
Very well.
**[18:39] ---**
In exchange, I'll take the
younger prince with me.
**[18:42] ---**
If you deny me,
I'll take my life this instant.
**[18:46] ---**
You don't want me to die yet, do you?
**[18:50] ---**
As you wish,
**[18:53] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[18:58] ---**
Thank you for inviting me tonight.
**[19:01] ---**
Our enemies are no more!
**[19:03] ---**
Yes. To our king.
**[19:05] ---**
To the king.
**[19:10] ---**
My wine hasn't tasted
so fine in many a night.
**[19:13] ---**
All thanks to your timely
warning, Lord Hastings.
**[19:18] ---**
Think nothing of it!
We've long been comrades in arms!
**[19:23] ---**
But we can't relax yet.
**[19:25] ---**
Not while that woman is the queen mother.
**[19:30] ---**
Then let's send someone to watch her.
**[19:32] ---**
I know just the woman: Jane!
**[19:35] ---**
Your witch?
**[19:37] ---**
Well, mine at the moment.
**[19:39] ---**
Intercourse with a witch seems
to bring superhuman pleasures.
**[19:44] ---**
Enough to make you putty in her hands.
**[19:46] ---**
Oh, no, the bond between us
is one of simple love.
**[19:52] ---**
Although I admit that its beginning
was quite stimulating.
**[19:56] ---**
I thought so. To open a tight-closed
bud, begin with a shock.
**[20:04] ---**
We can depend on Hastings's support.
**[20:07] ---**
No. He supports Edward.
**[20:12] ---**
Why are you upset?
**[20:14] ---**
Why did you look at me that way?
**[20:16] ---**
That way? What way?
**[20:19] ---**
Don't tell me you thought that
**[20:22] ---**
one time would be sufficient
to purchase my soul.
**[20:26] ---**
I'll undress myself.
**[20:30] ---**
Lord Richard?
Is something wrong with your left eye?
**[20:34] ---**
The servants' children
called my eyes strange.
**[20:38] ---**
Even Mother always says so.
**[20:41] ---**
Why am I different?
**[20:44] ---**
It isn't love that I want.
**[20:47] ---**
I need a pact.
**[20:51] ---**
Now, grave more pain into me
to your heart's content.
**[20:55] ---**
Before the wound of our pact heals.
**[20:58] ---**
My skin color is different.
Is that strange?
**[21:03] ---**
No, not at all.
**[21:05] ---**
You're not strange either, Lord Richard.
**[21:09] ---**
You still don't understand.
**[21:12] ---**
Mere pain fades quickly.
**[21:15] ---**
I told you:
**[21:17] ---**
Offer your secret self to me.
**[21:20] ---**
Listen, Richard. I'm about to mark you...
**[21:24] ---**
I'll hide it with my hair.
**[21:27] ---**
If you hide it, you won't feel sadness.
**[21:32] ---**
...with sweet suffering.
**[21:37] ---**
Can you do as much?
**[21:39] ---**
What can I do?
**[21:41] ---**
Yes. This is fine.
**[21:44] ---**
Richard, only I know the true you.
**[21:49] ---**
Even pleasure becomes pain.
**[21:52] ---**
In this ceremony that
resembles love, I will be killed
**[21:56] ---**
and reborn.
**[22:02] ---**
Listen well, all of you.
**[22:04] ---**
The weak, mad King Henry VI
**[22:07] ---**
could not rule England
without his uncle's help.
**[22:11] ---**
I'm no incompetent, but this is tradition.
**[22:15] ---**
Yes. That man required
a Protector even in adulthood.
**[22:22] ---**
The situation is different.
**[22:24] ---**
Now, my lords, I trust that we are agreed?
**[22:26] ---**
What choice is there with Rivers gone?
**[22:29] ---**
No one who objects would
be here in the palace.
**[22:33] ---**
Richard, Duke of Gloucester,
we name you our Lord Protector.
**[22:38] ---**
I humbly accept.
**[22:46] ---**
The light that my father
almost seized back then.
**[22:50] ---**
This is a transient light.
**[22:54] ---**
Back then, we were but powerless
children dreaming of the future.
**[23:00] ---**
A crowd stood between us and the crown.
**[23:06] ---**
But now there are only
two princes in our way.
**[23:10] ---**
Now, seize the rose!
**[23:13] ---**
Even if
**[23:14] ---**
my hands end up drenched in blood.

**[00:05] ---**
Lord Richard.
**[00:07] ---**
Catesby.
**[00:08] ---**
Mother says she'll take me to the woods
today because the weather is fine.
**[00:14] ---**
Come. Let's go deep into the woods.
**[00:19] ---**
Catesby, um...
**[00:22] ---**
If I get lost in the woods,
**[00:24] ---**
come and find me, okay?
**[00:27] ---**
Catesby.
**[00:28] ---**
I'll go on alone.
**[00:37] ---**
Sweet strawberry pies.
**[00:39] ---**
Why not bring one home to your family?
**[00:44] ---**
I have no reason to call on him.
**[00:48] ---**
If Richard won't speak against
His Majesty's whims,
**[00:51] ---**
you'll have to rely on the queen mother.
**[00:54] ---**
But then...
**[00:55] ---**
Asking her for a bit of advice
wouldn't be a betrayal.
**[01:00] ---**
Don't tell me...
**[01:05] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:07] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:10] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:16] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:56] ---**
The next council will decide whether
you take the throne at the coronation.
**[03:01] ---**
Who might take our side?
**[03:05] ---**
By my reckoning, it's evenly split.
**[03:08] ---**
The Earl of Northumberland
and Lord Howard are ours.
**[03:12] ---**
Hastings and Stanley could be persuaded.
**[03:15] ---**
And the Bishop of Ely?
**[03:17] ---**
We can buy his support.
**[03:20] ---**
I'll speak to him, then.
**[03:22] ---**
I'll meet with Howard
and the others as well.
**[03:25] ---**
But what if they won't join us?
**[03:28] ---**
No one could refuse your
impassioned whisper in their ear.
**[03:34] ---**
And if that fails?
**[03:36] ---**
We'll need to kill them.
**[03:38] ---**
Otherwise, it will be our heads
on the executioner's block.
**[03:42] ---**
We've embarked on a game
of chance against God.
**[03:46] ---**
If Hastings goes that way,
**[03:49] ---**
what will become of him?
**[03:51] ---**
Of whom?
**[03:52] ---**
Catesby is a loyal man.
**[03:57] ---**
Will he look at me with hate in his eyes?
**[04:02] ---**
If he truly cares for the
royal family, he'll understand.
**[04:06] ---**
But if he becomes a briar in our path,
**[04:10] ---**
I'll clear him from it personally.
**[04:18] ---**
Mother! He's here!
**[04:20] ---**
I see. You've kept me waiting.
**[04:24] ---**
Hastings the dolt!
**[04:29] ---**
Thank you for your visit, Lord Hastings.
**[04:33] ---**
Q-Queen Elizabeth.
**[04:36] ---**
I'm sorry that I can't do more for you,
**[04:39] ---**
but I now spend my days
praying for a quiet life.
**[04:43] ---**
I guarantee your safety
so long as you remain here.
**[04:47] ---**
But I was hoping you'd advise me.
**[04:51] ---**
Goodness. Do you need
advice from the likes of me?
**[04:56] ---**
To earnestly seek knowledge from
your enemy shows nobility of spirit.
**[05:01] ---**
Lord Hastings, a man like
you should be Protector!
**[05:06] ---**
Y-You give me too much credit.
**[05:08] ---**
No. I could safely entrust
Edward to *your* care.
**[05:16] ---**
Should I report to His Grace?
**[05:19] ---**
But if the Duke of Buckingham
learned of this...
**[05:24] ---**
Where are you bound for, Lord Hastings?
**[05:28] ---**
An abbey is hardly a fitting place
to rendezvous with a lover,
**[05:32] ---**
although it would suit an interview
with the queen dowager.
**[05:36] ---**
She's had a complete change of heart!
**[05:39] ---**
You needn't fear her designs on--
**[05:40] ---**
Your Grace!
**[05:42] ---**
I wish to make a statement.
**[05:44] ---**
Lord Hastings acts with the interests
of the royal family at heart.
**[05:50] ---**
Punish me if I speak falsely.
**[05:55] ---**
I see. In that case, I wish to speak
with you in your master's stead.
**[06:00] ---**
Come.
**[06:03] ---**
Why did you shield Hastings?
**[06:05] ---**
Is your wish to remain pure until death?
**[06:11] ---**
Whom do you serve?
**[06:14] ---**
My master is...
**[06:15] ---**
Do you think you
understand him best of all?
**[06:19] ---**
Kindness isn't what he desires now.
**[06:23] ---**
You can't become a demon.
**[06:26] ---**
You can't save Richard.
**[06:37] ---**
You met with the Bishop of Ely.
**[06:40] ---**
Were you able to buy him off?
**[06:43] ---**
Wait!
**[06:44] ---**
What is this mark?!
**[06:46] ---**
It appears the bishop has immoral tastes.
**[06:50] ---**
He asked for my body rather than gold.
**[06:55] ---**
Did he defile you?
**[06:58] ---**
I'll gouge out his guts
and tear him apart!
**[07:01] ---**
What is there to be upset about?
**[07:03] ---**
This won us the bishop's support.
**[07:07] ---**
Why are you angry? Tell me.
**[07:11] ---**
Our oath.
**[07:14] ---**
I haven't broken it.
**[07:17] ---**
This body will not open to anyone but you.
**[07:22] ---**
Thank you for earlier!
**[07:24] ---**
You're the purest and most
upstanding man I've ever seen.
**[07:30] ---**
Whom do you serve?
**[07:33] ---**
You can't save Richard.
**[07:40] ---**
Your Grace.
**[07:42] ---**
Catesby?
**[07:44] ---**
I wish to speak to you.
**[07:45] ---**
I can't just now.
**[07:47] ---**
I don't mind. Come in.
**[07:51] ---**
It's about Lord Hastings.
**[07:55] ---**
Pardon me.
**[08:01] ---**
If he becomes a briar...
**[08:04] ---**
If you turn your sword on me, then...
**[08:13] ---**
Lord Hastings often meets the queen
dowager secretly at Westminster.
**[08:19] ---**
I'm certain that their ties
are strengthening.
**[08:24] ---**
And what do you intend
to do about Hastings?
**[08:29] ---**
If he shows signs of treachery,
**[08:33] ---**
I'll dispatch him at once.
**[08:36] ---**
Your master is loyal to
the royal family, while I...
**[08:41] ---**
I am about to betray even the
blood of York to gain the crown.
**[08:49] ---**
I have only ever served a single lord.
**[08:53] ---**
Only you, Your Grace.
**[08:57] ---**
I'm a demon. Consigning you
to hell gives me relief
**[09:03] ---**
as you look at me in pain,
bound by your loyalty.
**[09:09] ---**
Then from now on, consider my orders
as Richard's. We're halves of one whole.
**[09:15] ---**
Yes, Your Grace.
**[09:18] ---**
In that case, would you
begin by lopping off
**[09:22] ---**
that traitor's head?
**[09:25] ---**
His blood will seal our compact.
**[09:34] ---**
This warmth burns me.
**[09:37] ---**
Nothing is as vivid as this warmth.
**[09:40] ---**
Your Grace, allow me.
**[09:43] ---**
I'm about to meet with Lord Howard
and others at a tournament.
**[09:47] ---**
They're strongly behind us, but...
**[09:50] ---**
Will they still consent
to back you as king?
**[09:55] ---**
I'll have them forge a pact as well.
**[09:57] ---**
D-Duke of Gloucester!
**[10:00] ---**
Bishop of Ely. What is it?
**[10:02] ---**
I-I must tell you...
**[10:04] ---**
Then you may speak to me.
**[10:07] ---**
But it is a private matter.
**[10:09] ---**
No matter. Proceed.
**[10:13] ---**
You see... a service is planned for the
queen mother and her son, Edward V.
**[10:20] ---**
A church service?!
**[10:21] ---**
I've heard nothing of this.
**[10:23] ---**
You were not meant to.
**[10:26] ---**
The archbishop proposed it,
**[10:28] ---**
but the queen dowager worked through
Lord Hastings to request it of him.
**[10:33] ---**
Good day, Duke of Gloucester.
**[10:35] ---**
Please visit to sample my strawberries
whenever it pleases you.
**[10:40] ---**
This proves Hastings a traitor.
**[10:44] ---**
Still, I hadn't expected
Elizabeth to be so bold.
**[10:47] ---**
Holding this service
**[10:50] ---**
will demonstrate that the queen
dowager still wields great power.
**[10:55] ---**
But if we prevent it,
**[10:56] ---**
we'll suffer a fatal backlash as
enemies of the poor widowed queen.
**[11:01] ---**
This is a declaration of war from God
**[11:05] ---**
against the devil.
**[11:07] ---**
The devil has the devil's way.
**[11:11] ---**
I thought it a sin even to wish
for warmth, but now it is mine.
**[11:18] ---**
I'll take what I desire by force.
**[11:24] ---**
Lord Hastings, has the date
of the service been set?
**[11:29] ---**
Actually, the service has been canceled.
**[11:33] ---**
And what's more, there's to be a service
for the Duke of Gloucester instead.
**[11:39] ---**
Impossible!
**[11:40] ---**
Who gave the order?!
**[11:42] ---**
It was a royal decree.
**[11:45] ---**
Richard must have talked the king into it.
**[11:48] ---**
That demon!
**[11:49] ---**
Frankly, given his current position,
**[11:53] ---**
he might issue royal orders
without the king's knowledge.
**[11:56] ---**
Also, um... I hate to say this,
**[12:00] ---**
but the Duke of Gloucester
demands the younger prince as well.
**[12:05] ---**
Queen Elizabeth...
**[12:11] ---**
That demon gives no quarter!
**[12:14] ---**
Does he plan to take all my
hopes and leave me in despair?
**[12:18] ---**
But I've devoted my life to revenge.
**[12:21] ---**
The more he takes,
the hotter my soul burns.
**[12:25] ---**
Just you watch, Richard.
**[12:27] ---**
Next time, I'll be the one
to dash your hopes.
**[12:31] ---**
Mother.
**[12:33] ---**
Of course. Why didn't I realize?
**[12:37] ---**
Who knows--and hates--Richard most of all?
**[12:43] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[12:44] ---**
The Duke of Gloucester's actions clearly
overstep his authority as Protector!
**[12:50] ---**
True. He has been a bit
highhanded of late.
**[12:53] ---**
Don't you agree, Your Excellency?
**[12:55] ---**
A-Absolutely.
**[12:57] ---**
Yes! He's far too impudent!
Far too tyrannical!
**[13:01] ---**
Wait, Lord Hastings!
**[13:04] ---**
Lord Howard.
**[13:05] ---**
It's cowardly to speak
thus in his absence!
**[13:08] ---**
His Majesty formally delegated his
power to the Duke of Gloucester.
**[13:13] ---**
It is you who are impudent!
**[13:14] ---**
Mere excuses!
It's obvious who is in the right!
**[13:18] ---**
A mother's purehearted--
**[13:19] ---**
Hastings!
**[13:21] ---**
Church services are dull.
**[13:23] ---**
--But Your Majesty--
--Leave us.
**[13:28] ---**
--They say Hastings is sleeping
with the queen mother.
**[13:28] ---**
--First the witch and now the wife? --He must want to be the king's father.
**[13:32] ---**
I realized too late.
**[13:35] ---**
The palace is already
full of rotten apples.
**[13:39] ---**
The few of us left must
talk amongst ourselves.
**[13:42] ---**
I know just the place!
**[13:44] ---**
May God bless you, guardians of justice.
**[13:47] ---**
Lord Stanley. Lord Hastings.
Bishop of Ely.
**[13:52] ---**
The royal family is doomed
**[13:54] ---**
unless we seize England back
from that lawless fiend, Richard!
**[13:58] ---**
But our situation is even
more dire than before.
**[14:02] ---**
Richard was a reserved
and straightforward soldier.
**[14:05] ---**
Now, he has a strange
power to attract people.
**[14:08] ---**
It's practically magical!
**[14:10] ---**
Wealth and power cast a potent spell.
**[14:15] ---**
Qu-Quite right!
**[14:17] ---**
If only we knew his secret weakness.
**[14:22] ---**
Some scandal that would
shake people's faith in him.
**[14:25] ---**
I take it that's why
you called, Elizabeth.
**[14:29] ---**
Why you summoned me!
**[14:31] ---**
Mother-in-law!
**[14:32] ---**
Please forgive my abrupt summons.
**[14:35] ---**
God has left this task to us.
**[14:37] ---**
Elizabeth, I understand.
Your sorrow is my own,
**[14:42] ---**
although my sorrow is many times greater.
**[14:47] ---**
But the fruit of my womb and his
wickedness lies behind it all.
**[14:54] ---**
In exchange for my aid,
I want you to promise me one thing:
**[15:00] ---**
Kill Richard.
**[15:04] ---**
I've tried many times myself,
but I couldn't do it.
**[15:07] ---**
Oh! If only I could have
slain him with words!
**[15:11] ---**
I should have exposed Richard's secret
and let the world punish him sooner!
**[15:16] ---**
What secret?
**[15:18] ---**
I concealed it because it could have
brought ruin on our house.
**[15:24] ---**
And in consequence,
**[15:25] ---**
my cowardice has allowed
that demon to flourish!
**[15:31] ---**
But now I have no more left to lose.
**[15:34] ---**
Nothing but my dear Edward's children.
**[15:38] ---**
Yes, precisely!
**[15:39] ---**
For those darling children's sakes,
**[15:41] ---**
tell us the truth about Richard now!
**[15:45] ---**
Richard Plantagenet is...
**[15:53] ---**
A blood-soaked demon
who defied the will of God!
**[15:57] ---**
Let me prophecy!
**[15:58] ---**
One day, a host of the elderly,
of widows, of orphans
**[16:04] ---**
will lament the untimely
deaths that demon caused!
**[16:08] ---**
What did he say?
**[16:09] ---**
Duke Richard is...?
**[16:10] ---**
This will let us strike a fatal
blow against Gloucester,
**[16:14] ---**
although it is quite hard to believe.
**[16:17] ---**
No, thinking back, his actions
were always strange.
**[16:22] ---**
It all makes sense. We shall indict
him at the next council meeting
**[16:27] ---**
and expose his true demonic
nature to the light of day!
**[16:32] ---**
Why was he born?
**[16:33] ---**
Why was he ever born?!
**[16:35] ---**
Curse the day of his birth!
**[16:37] ---**
Curse the demon!
**[16:38] ---**
The demon, Richard Plantagenet!
**[16:47] ---**
What a racket.
**[16:49] ---**
He must want the next council
to have you burned at the stake.
**[16:53] ---**
Is that your idea of informing?
**[16:55] ---**
It's too late to beg for your life.
**[16:58] ---**
I knew His Grace's secret,
but I didn't tell it.
**[17:03] ---**
But do you truly understand yourself?
**[17:07] ---**
Have you felt at all unusual?
**[17:09] ---**
If you have need of medicines,
just say the word.
**[17:13] ---**
That potion that sapped the king's will?
**[17:16] ---**
An abortifacient.
**[17:19] ---**
Take care. It causes
inflammation in sunlight.
**[17:25] ---**
It won't be a demon on display
at the next council meeting.
**[17:30] ---**
It will be his head.
**[17:36] ---**
Where is the rest of the council?
**[17:38] ---**
Oh, we must have arrived too early.
**[17:41] ---**
Even the Duke of Gloucester
isn't here yet.
**[17:46] ---**
Can't you stand in for him?
**[17:50] ---**
You know his mind better than anyone.
**[17:53] ---**
Me? We may be close friends,
but I can't fathom his innermost thoughts.
**[17:59] ---**
Just as you and I cannot
know each other's minds.
**[18:05] ---**
Pardon my tardiness, my lords.
**[18:11] ---**
Now, what shall we discuss?
**[18:13] ---**
Why, the coronation, of--
**[18:15] ---**
By the way, Your Excellency,
**[18:18] ---**
was that not an intimate time
we spent the other day?
**[18:21] ---**
Just us two.
**[18:24] ---**
You promised to send me
strawberries from your garden.
**[18:28] ---**
Would you go and fetch them now?
**[18:30] ---**
N-Now?
**[18:32] ---**
Yes, now.
**[18:33] ---**
E-Excuse me.
**[18:36] ---**
Now, what date shall we set?
**[18:39] ---**
The others are too late.
**[18:41] ---**
Duke of Gloucester,
**[18:43] ---**
may I step out for a moment as well?
**[18:46] ---**
By all means.
**[18:53] ---**
Lord Hastings,
**[18:54] ---**
the other councilors have
convened in another location.
**[18:59] ---**
Damn! So, Gloucester *has* bought them off.
**[19:02] ---**
Catesby! Gather as many
of the nobles here as you can!
**[19:06] ---**
They can witness the charges!
**[19:08] ---**
As for that, they are already here.
**[19:12] ---**
Incredible. You're the most
capable and loyal man I know.
**[19:17] ---**
Gloucester is your former lord,
so I'm sure your feelings are conflicted.
**[19:24] ---**
I merely wished for His Grace
to walk in the warm light.
**[19:32] ---**
You should at least be
the one to end his misery.
**[19:40] ---**
Duke of Gloucester! Let me tell you
the *true* purpose of this council!
**[19:45] ---**
Listen well! Richard Plantagenet
schemes to overthrow the kingdom!
**[19:49] ---**
His mother, Duchess Cecily, has revealed
the truth, heedless of her own dishonor!
**[19:56] ---**
Richard harbors a demon in his flesh!
**[20:04] ---**
Richard! If you claim innocence,
then present proofs!
**[20:08] ---**
Here and now!
**[20:11] ---**
A cursed demon, am I?
**[20:14] ---**
And who cursed me?
**[20:17] ---**
My body has been twisted into
this ghastly, demonic form.
**[20:23] ---**
Are not those who cast that
curse the *true* demons?
**[20:27] ---**
Hastings and his allies!
**[20:31] ---**
You are the demons!
**[20:33] ---**
Y-You lie!
**[20:35] ---**
Then behold.
**[20:40] ---**
I was not born this way.
**[20:46] ---**
This is the result of your curse.
**[20:49] ---**
Put these rebels to death!
**[20:53] ---**
Now I'm certain of everything,
even without proof!
**[20:57] ---**
You fools seek the empty favor of a demon!
**[21:00] ---**
Catesby! Seize Richard!
**[21:05] ---**
That day, I could not save him.
**[21:09] ---**
Lord Richard! Lord Richard!
**[21:12] ---**
What shall I do? If Lord Richard is...
**[21:15] ---**
Your Grace,
**[21:16] ---**
I can never become the light
that illumines your path.
**[21:21] ---**
Even so...
**[21:24] ---**
...to me, you are life itself.
**[21:29] ---**
Lord Hastings, prepare yourself.
**[21:31] ---**
Even you?!
**[21:33] ---**
Disgusting! I would rather die
than see a demon crowned!
**[21:39] ---**
Even so, I will never leave you alone.
**[21:43] ---**
No matter how deep into
darkness your path takes you.

**[00:05] ---**
This man was once
the king's closest friend.
**[00:08] ---**
After the king's death,
he sometimes guided me like a brother
**[00:13] ---**
and sustained this kingdom.
**[00:16] ---**
Even so...
**[00:20] ---**
...those who sell their souls
to demons are bound for hell.
**[00:24] ---**
What's going on?!
**[00:26] ---**
Listen well!
**[00:27] ---**
The queen dowager's
family and Lord Hastings
**[00:30] ---**
attempted to assassinate
the Duke of Gloucester!
**[00:33] ---**
Lord Stanley.
**[00:36] ---**
You backed the wrong horse.
**[00:40] ---**
Did you all see that?!
**[00:43] ---**
Lord Hastings not only spread baseless
slanders against the Duke of Gloucester,
**[00:48] ---**
but even attempted to murder
the duke by sorcery!
**[00:51] ---**
Yet have not fear!
**[00:52] ---**
He was executed before our eyes
and his schemes forestalled!
**[00:56] ---**
The Lord God could see the justice
in the Duke of Gloucester's heart!
**[01:03] ---**
Our Lord Protector! Please have mercy!
**[01:06] ---**
I swear to turn over a new leaf
and serve you body and soul!
**[01:12] ---**
Very well.
**[01:13] ---**
Hear me: it is not yet too late.
**[01:17] ---**
If we can join hands for England's sake,
**[01:21] ---**
I shall call you
**[01:23] ---**
my brothers.
**[01:26] ---**
I'm so close.
**[01:27] ---**
Soon, my hands will be able to grasp
**[01:31] ---**
the light!
**[01:36] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:38] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:41] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:47] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:29] ---**
Queen Dowager Elizabeth.
**[03:31] ---**
What a shame.
**[03:33] ---**
All of your schemes have fallen flat.
**[03:36] ---**
Buckingham!
**[03:37] ---**
You had cause to want the
Duke of Gloucester dead at any cost.
**[03:45] ---**
He is the true heir to the throne,
more legitimate than your sons.
**[03:51] ---**
What?! How dare you!
**[03:53] ---**
Catesby, speak the dreadful truth
you once heard on the field of battle.
**[04:00] ---**
What I am about to say is supported
by a wealth of testimony.
**[04:06] ---**
I swear to the Lord Our God
that I speak the truth.
**[04:11] ---**
Our former king, Edward IV,
**[04:13] ---**
was already married to another woman
before he met Elizabeth Woodville.
**[04:20] ---**
Elizabeth Woodville is
not the king's lawful wife.
**[04:25] ---**
Therefore, her son Edward
is not a legitimate king.
**[04:29] ---**
This is a grievous mistake!
**[04:32] ---**
A lowly weed has put down
roots in the sacred palace!
**[04:36] ---**
But gentlemen!
**[04:38] ---**
Fortunately, the prince does not yet
wear a golden crown upon his brow!
**[04:44] ---**
We can still correct our error!
**[04:47] ---**
God is watching over us!
**[04:54] ---**
Enact justice.
**[04:58] ---**
Take both brothers away!
**[05:01] ---**
To the Tower of London
with this false king!
**[05:03] ---**
S-Stop it!
**[05:04] ---**
Take your filthy hands off me!
**[05:07] ---**
I am king!
**[05:09] ---**
Damn that demon!
**[05:10] ---**
Richard! You'll pay for this!
**[05:26] ---**
The time has come at last.
**[05:29] ---**
How you and I have waited for this moment.
**[05:32] ---**
"You and I"...?
**[05:37] ---**
Once the time comes, we need
no longer reaffirm our pact.
**[05:43] ---**
The king's body belongs to the kingdom.
**[05:46] ---**
Naturally.
**[05:48] ---**
Are you worried about what Jane said?
**[05:52] ---**
But do you truly understand yourself?
**[05:56] ---**
Rest easy. That's not possible.
**[05:59] ---**
Do you have proof of that,
or do you merely wish to believe it?
**[06:03] ---**
The terrible nights will return,
**[06:07] ---**
even though I've already known warmth.
**[06:11] ---**
Richard?
**[06:12] ---**
It's for the crown.
**[06:14] ---**
Our pact is merely a ritual to that end.
**[06:17] ---**
Isn't that right, Richard?
If you have the makings of a king...
**[06:22] ---**
I...
**[06:24] ---**
...can't sleep without you.
**[06:31] ---**
Forget that.
**[06:34] ---**
How you toy with my resolve.
**[06:37] ---**
Coupling isn't the extent of our pact.
**[06:40] ---**
Tell me your desire.
**[06:46] ---**
Just be at my side.
**[06:50] ---**
Until the darkness burns
away in the morning sunlight.
**[06:56] ---**
Have you heard?! Edward V and his brother
were taken to the Tower of London!
**[07:00] ---**
What on earth is going on?!
**[07:02] ---**
If that's true,
the next heir to the throne
**[07:05] ---**
can only be him!
**[07:09] ---**
What's wrong? Doesn't this feel real?
**[07:13] ---**
When I thought I held it,
**[07:15] ---**
light has always turned
to curses in my hands.
**[07:20] ---**
This time, it's real.
**[07:22] ---**
No one remains between us and the throne.
**[07:25] ---**
All the briars have been cleared away.
**[07:28] ---**
You need only wish.
**[07:30] ---**
Now, all shall be as you desire.
**[07:34] ---**
Where is the Duke of Gloucester?
**[07:36] ---**
Praying at the Tower of London, I hear.
**[07:39] ---**
Pressing on his wounds
and praying, they say.
**[07:42] ---**
Fools! They'll all act out
his script if nothing is done.
**[07:48] ---**
Let me tell you what he has already done!
**[07:54] ---**
He killed his friends,
killed his brothers,
**[07:56] ---**
and now he's praying in feigned innocence
**[08:00] ---**
in that place!
**[08:02] ---**
Henry VI died here.
**[08:06] ---**
I killed him.
**[08:09] ---**
He called me a demon.
**[08:11] ---**
Richard is without compassion, for he
**[08:16] ---**
was not fashioned in God's image!
**[08:19] ---**
Now you mention it, there were
rumors about his true self.
**[08:23] ---**
I heard them, too. About what he really is.
**[08:26] ---**
Yeah! Everyone was saying that Richard,
Duke of Gloucester is a demon!
**[08:30] ---**
You must not crown a demon king!
**[08:33] ---**
If a demon takes the throne, England
will be plunged into the depths of ruin!
**[08:39] ---**
Your Grace! A mob surrounds the Tower!
**[08:42] ---**
Demon!
**[08:43] ---**
Get out, demon!
**[08:44] ---**
Don't crown the demon!
**[08:47] ---**
Your Grace...
**[08:48] ---**
They call for me, and I shall answer.
**[08:52] ---**
Are you ready, Buckingham?
**[08:54] ---**
The script is complete. Now, act it.
**[08:58] ---**
The curses of the dead
only trouble humans.
**[09:01] ---**
Demons merely do as they wish.
**[09:06] ---**
Listen. This is a ruse.
**[09:08] ---**
No matter how I beg you,
**[09:11] ---**
simply spurn my demands
like a pure maiden.
**[09:14] ---**
It's your cue, Richard.
Your role is "God."
**[09:18] ---**
Yes.
**[09:20] ---**
I'll give a performance of holiness
that will hoodwink God himself.
**[09:31] ---**
Demon, you say?! Nonsense!
**[09:34] ---**
This is the legitimate
scion of the Plantagenets,
**[09:38] ---**
the renowned Duke of Gloucester!
**[09:40] ---**
The new King of England!
**[09:42] ---**
What insolence! You may play the saint,
**[09:46] ---**
but you can't hide
the rot within, usurper!
**[09:49] ---**
Buckingham, face me.
**[09:56] ---**
How dare you?! I am not the king!
**[09:59] ---**
True, I have long desired the crown.
**[10:03] ---**
But only to offer to Prince Edward,
my beloved brother's heir!
**[10:08] ---**
Your Majesty is mistaken!
**[10:10] ---**
That boy is no prince!
**[10:13] ---**
You all must know as well!
**[10:15] ---**
Lustful Edward IV neglected war
and even despoiled his subjects' wives!
**[10:20] ---**
At last, he conceived
those boys in bigamy!
**[10:23] ---**
Nonsense! Don't let the demon's
tawdry act deceive you!
**[10:27] ---**
You may be my friend,
but I'll forgive no more such slights!
**[10:31] ---**
If speaking the truth is a crime,
then I await my punishment.
**[10:36] ---**
But you have never yet killed
anyone who spoke the truth.
**[10:42] ---**
Your love for your brother's
children is what drives you.
**[10:46] ---**
You wish to give them the exalted
station and happiness of kingship!
**[10:52] ---**
I have only one desire:
**[10:55] ---**
A light to shine on this dark world.
**[10:59] ---**
On bloody mornings,
troubled days, and lonely nights.
**[11:06] ---**
A light to illuminate our proper path.
**[11:11] ---**
I want someone to be that light.
**[11:14] ---**
Not "someone."
**[11:16] ---**
You. You will become the light
that shines on this world.
**[11:22] ---**
The chaos of a child king's reign
begets suffering for the people.
**[11:28] ---**
None know the pains of such
an age better than you.
**[11:33] ---**
Of course. Strife will break out
around a powerless king.
**[11:39] ---**
I don't want to see that chaos again.
**[11:41] ---**
I lost my son in the wars.
**[11:43] ---**
Yes, and I my father.
**[11:47] ---**
My father...
**[11:48] ---**
My father was everything to me.
**[11:52] ---**
All lies! Even those tears!
**[11:56] ---**
It doesn't look that way to me.
**[12:00] ---**
I felt a special bond between us.
**[12:05] ---**
Preserve my name.
**[12:06] ---**
Yes, Father.
**[12:11] ---**
Duke of Gloucester!
**[12:13] ---**
If you will not listen
to all my entreaties,
**[12:16] ---**
I will be forced to claim the throne
through another bloodline!
**[12:20] ---**
--Stop!
--Duke of Gloucester, stop the wars!
**[12:22] ---**
Please! Please, Your Grace!
**[12:24] ---**
All of you join in!
**[12:25] ---**
Hear our pleas!
**[12:27] ---**
Grant our wish, Duke of Gloucester!
**[12:29] ---**
--King!
--King!
**[12:30] ---**
King!
**[12:31] ---**
Save us!
**[12:32] ---**
Defend us!
**[12:34] ---**
O Lord, please!
**[12:35] ---**
Wait!
**[12:37] ---**
I will not allow England to fall to ruin,
**[12:40] ---**
even if I must forsake my
soul's justice to prevent it.
**[12:44] ---**
Buckingham, people of London,
**[12:47] ---**
I will become king
**[12:51] ---**
and shoulder the weight of destiny!
**[12:54] ---**
O Lord!
**[12:55] ---**
Praise be to God!
**[12:58] ---**
Richard, named for his father,
shall become the light of this world!
**[13:11] ---**
God save our new king!
**[13:16] ---**
What's going on? Some kind of festival?
**[13:20] ---**
Yes.
**[13:20] ---**
The new king's coronation.
**[13:23] ---**
Edward V's coronation?!
**[13:26] ---**
Then Richard's reign is over!
**[13:28] ---**
Yes, that means we'll soon be free.
**[13:32] ---**
O little robin, bearer of good news!
**[13:34] ---**
Let's toast our new king together!
**[13:37] ---**
To our king!
**[13:41] ---**
The day I was given life,
a terrible storm laid trees low.
**[13:48] ---**
Owls screeched and crows
croaked in the night
**[13:52] ---**
to herald the coming
of an age of misfortune.
**[14:05] ---**
Tell me, Father, why does
everyone do what the king says?
**[14:10] ---**
Because God chose the king.
**[14:15] ---**
If God chose me...
**[14:18] ---**
If I became king,
would I never be sad again?
**[14:21] ---**
Of course not.
You would have your every wish.
**[14:26] ---**
Listen, Richard.
**[14:27] ---**
Within that crown--
that golden circlet--lies paradise.
**[14:34] ---**
Let me prophecy, Richard.
**[14:36] ---**
One day, a host of the elderly,
of widows, of orphans
**[14:40] ---**
will bless you even as they lament
the loved ones they have lost.
**[14:46] ---**
Because God...
**[14:48] ---**
Because God has chosen this bloody demon.
**[14:55] ---**
Now I bless you with your royal title!
**[15:01] ---**
Your Majesty, Richard III,
King of England!
**[15:06] ---**
May God's blessing be upon you!
**[15:12] ---**
May the Lord God redeem us as well.
**[15:19] ---**
Make way for His Majesty!
**[15:22] ---**
Allow me to congratulate Your Majesty!
**[15:24] ---**
Bless His Majesty, King Richard III!
**[15:28] ---**
Does it truly blind people this much?
**[15:32] ---**
They heap praises upon
the crown's radiance,
**[15:36] ---**
never noticing the demon's horns
hidden by its halo of light.
**[15:43] ---**
The wounds of civil strife have healed,
and peace breathes once more!
**[15:48] ---**
I humbly pray to God that
this peace may be eternal.
**[15:56] ---**
This is impressive for
an impromptu celebration.
**[15:59] ---**
Of course it is. It was originally
meant for Edward V.
**[16:03] ---**
Now, please turn your attention
to our next entertainment!
**[16:07] ---**
Almighty God! I beg your permission
to create a heaven here!
**[16:13] ---**
I am God, the King of Kings!
**[16:16] ---**
O Lord! Eternal loyalty to you alone!
**[16:21] ---**
I thought this play was
chosen to please Edward.
**[16:26] ---**
Why this subject?
**[16:28] ---**
Listen well, angels!
**[16:29] ---**
Touch not my throne while I am gone!
**[16:33] ---**
I know what God said,
**[16:35] ---**
but if I sat on that throne,
might I gain power equal to His?
**[16:41] ---**
My radiance has earned me
a rank second only to Him.
**[16:47] ---**
My name is Lucifer!
**[16:50] ---**
Your light is many times brighter
and more beautiful than God's!
**[16:54] ---**
You should sit upon His throne at once!
**[16:57] ---**
All Heaven belongs to you and me!
**[17:00] ---**
Behold! The power of God is now mine!
**[17:04] ---**
Kneel before your true sovereign!
**[17:07] ---**
This is clearly...
**[17:09] ---**
Lèse-majesté! Make them cease at once!
**[17:12] ---**
Northumberland, leave them.
**[17:14] ---**
But...
**[17:16] ---**
Show us the rest.
**[17:18] ---**
What folly!
**[17:19] ---**
Fall into Hell and be bound there forever!
**[17:23] ---**
God loves me no more!
**[17:26] ---**
I envy humans, who have God's love!
**[17:31] ---**
Yes, this certainly is Richard.
**[17:34] ---**
Or at least it *was*.
**[17:38] ---**
I shall reward you
for that fine diversion.
**[17:41] ---**
Catesby, show them the finest hospitality.
**[17:45] ---**
Actor, you are invited
to tomorrow's banquet.
**[17:49] ---**
I'll show you the sequel to your play.
**[17:51] ---**
But in Richard's world this time.
**[17:55] ---**
Change everything about
tomorrow's banquet.
**[17:59] ---**
Make sure no one could
mistake it for Edward's.
**[18:02] ---**
My banquet will show them
that Richard's new age has come!
**[18:08] ---**
Edward.
**[18:09] ---**
Mother. Father.
**[18:12] ---**
I wanted to bid you goodnight.
**[18:16] ---**
Your Royal Highness.
**[18:18] ---**
Pardon me; I've never had the chance
to properly introduce myself before.
**[18:24] ---**
I am delighted to see that you
have grown into a splendid youth.
**[18:29] ---**
Th-Thank you very much,
Duke of Buckingham.
**[18:34] ---**
Buckingham, may I have a moment?
I wish to speak with you.
**[18:41] ---**
I'll sleep with Anne tonight.
**[18:45] ---**
I'm king, and spending nights
with the queen is a king's duty.
**[18:51] ---**
Naturally.
**[18:53] ---**
Do you mind?
**[18:55] ---**
Our pact has been fulfilled.
**[18:59] ---**
Become a perfect king.
**[19:01] ---**
That is my wish.
**[19:08] ---**
The royal apartments.
**[19:10] ---**
Will you drink?
**[19:14] ---**
Yes.
**[19:15] ---**
What?
**[19:16] ---**
Well, it's strange, but I'm nervous.
**[19:20] ---**
I've never been in your room before.
**[19:23] ---**
Although we've been married so long.
**[19:26] ---**
Get used to it.
**[19:27] ---**
As should you.
**[19:29] ---**
If only we had always been so close,
**[19:33] ---**
like I dreamed of back then.
**[19:36] ---**
Maybe for us, this is...
**[19:39] ---**
It's all too late.
**[19:42] ---**
The queen is the king's other half.
**[19:47] ---**
We must support each other to survive.
**[19:55] ---**
Richard, are you hurt?
**[20:01] ---**
Richard?
**[20:05] ---**
Sorry. I'm tired tonight,
and there's another feast tomorrow.
**[20:10] ---**
It's fine.
**[20:11] ---**
Am I drunk on my newfound light?
**[20:14] ---**
Without the crown's radiance to hide in,
I'm only a demon--only Richard.
**[20:21] ---**
Am I more frightened
now that I've obtained it?
**[20:25] ---**
Now that I know what it's like
to be "permitted" warmth?
**[20:30] ---**
In this hazy world,
**[20:32] ---**
the path my soul showed me
was always clear and bright.
**[20:38] ---**
I created a king--
an ideal king--and yet...
**[20:47] ---**
Are my feelings for Richard...?
**[20:55] ---**
I was scared stiff tonight.
**[20:58] ---**
I always said it was a bad idea.
**[21:01] ---**
Thank goodness King Richard
was the forgiving sort.
**[21:04] ---**
Yeah,
**[21:05] ---**
but you never know when
a king will change his mind.
**[21:09] ---**
Let's make ourselves scarce
before we end up hanged for--
**[21:15] ---**
I can smile and murder while I smile,
**[21:19] ---**
and cry, "Content!" to that
which grieves my heart,
**[21:23] ---**
and wet my face with artificial tears.
**[21:26] ---**
I'll deceive more slyly than Ulysses could
**[21:29] ---**
and slay more gazers than the basilisk.
**[21:34] ---**
Can I do this...
**[21:40] ---**
...and cannot get...
**[21:43] ---**
...a crown?

**[00:09] ---**
Hey! This is His Grace,
the Duke of Buckingham's--
**[00:12] ---**
Oh, Y-Your Majesty.
**[00:16] ---**
All chambers belong to the king.
**[00:18] ---**
But, um, His Grace
is absent at the moment.
**[00:24] ---**
I doubt he'll return before morning.
**[00:28] ---**
Patrol outside for a while.
**[00:30] ---**
At once!
**[00:34] ---**
Not before morning?
**[00:38] ---**
What's strange about that?
**[00:41] ---**
Of course he'd rather spend the night
in someone else's company.
**[00:48] ---**
I thought I'd gained everything.
**[00:51] ---**
So why?
**[00:54] ---**
Why does golden slumber elude me?
**[00:59] ---**
I want heat. That scalding heat.
**[01:04] ---**
Who are your hands embracing now?
**[01:08] ---**
I have no one but you
to embrace this body.
**[01:15] ---**
Buckingham.
**[01:17] ---**
Richard, what brings you here?
**[01:27] ---**
I'll be going.
**[01:32] ---**
Return to your chambers, quickly.
**[01:36] ---**
I said I would.
**[01:38] ---**
You are a king.
**[01:42] ---**
Why?
**[01:43] ---**
Buckingham, why are you so damp?
**[01:49] ---**
This way! Hurry!
**[02:03] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[02:05] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[02:08] ---**
These royal houses with roses
for their crests battled for the throne.
**[02:14] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:54] ---**
Who are they?
**[03:55] ---**
The players from the banquet.
**[03:58] ---**
They acted the play that mocked the king.
Is he making an example?
**[04:02] ---**
I saw His Majesty give his man
an order at the time.
**[04:06] ---**
His enemies perish before you know it.
An old trick of demons.
**[04:15] ---**
So, what will Your Royal Majesty do now?
**[04:18] ---**
You can create an Eden and play
the saint at your next banquet,
**[04:24] ---**
but these poor martyrs' deaths
will overshadow all your efforts.
**[04:31] ---**
I look forward to the play's next act.
**[04:38] ---**
Why are they together?
**[04:41] ---**
He was merely passing time with a friend.
**[04:46] ---**
Pardon me.
**[04:48] ---**
His Majesty bids me remain at your side,
**[04:53] ---**
given last night's killings.
**[04:57] ---**
So, Richard does think of me sometimes.
**[05:02] ---**
His Majesty is always
concerned for his queen.
**[05:09] ---**
Then why couldn't he do his duty at night?
**[05:14] ---**
Edward and I did ours, even without love.
**[05:19] ---**
It was for our futures.
**[05:22] ---**
You know him better than anyone.
**[05:25] ---**
If he's hiding something, tell me!
**[05:33] ---**
Back then, Richard leapt back,
as if to hide his body.
**[05:38] ---**
What did I tell you?
Richard will never love you.
**[05:43] ---**
Because Richard
**[05:45] ---**
is a woman.
**[05:48] ---**
Mother.
**[05:49] ---**
Father told me to join you.
**[05:55] ---**
Edward.
**[05:57] ---**
Yes. I see.
**[05:59] ---**
I needn't worry.
**[06:01] ---**
That could never be true.
**[06:05] ---**
Your Majesty, pay no heed
to the idle chatter of the mob.
**[06:09] ---**
Most likely, those fellows
fell out over their reward.
**[06:13] ---**
No one else has a motive
for their killing.
**[06:17] ---**
That man wasn't among the corpses.
**[06:21] ---**
Do I worry too much?
**[06:23] ---**
If there was a motive,
it was precisely this situation.
**[06:27] ---**
It was a perfect opportunity
to pin the blame on His Majesty.
**[06:33] ---**
You haven't worn your spectacles
since last night.
**[06:38] ---**
I was careless.
**[06:39] ---**
I'll have a new pair made.
**[06:41] ---**
No, my king, I would rather
not see clearly now.
**[06:48] ---**
I suppose not.
**[06:54] ---**
Listen. The banquet will proceed
according to schedule.
**[06:59] ---**
But first, deliver one of these letters
to every guest at once.
**[07:04] ---**
Make sure every denizen of
"Richard's paradise" receives one.
**[07:09] ---**
Nobles and servants.
**[07:11] ---**
Soldiers and clerics.
**[07:13] ---**
And of course, that man as well.
**[07:17] ---**
"My dear actor,
**[07:19] ---**
Tonight, come to my paradise
as other than yourself.
**[07:24] ---**
After Lucifer's Fall comes Adam and Eve."
**[07:28] ---**
A staple of festival plays, then.
**[07:31] ---**
Take care, Lord Richmond.
**[07:35] ---**
The Earl of Richmond has been
a fugitive since the Lancastrian defeat.
**[07:40] ---**
I am but a traveling performer!
**[07:43] ---**
But my lord, only you can restore
the House of Lancaster now.
**[07:48] ---**
Please refrain from, um, rash actions.
**[07:53] ---**
If I die, that too shall be God's will!
**[07:57] ---**
How silly.
**[07:59] ---**
Fate is already determined.
**[08:02] ---**
The Lord will choose me in the end.
**[08:07] ---**
Still, what a bore!
**[08:10] ---**
Come as "other than myself"?
**[08:12] ---**
Our king, the Creator, must find
a fiend like me inconvenient.
**[08:18] ---**
And really, who can blame him?
**[08:21] ---**
If the devil came to his banquet,
**[08:25] ---**
it would spell the end of
Adam and Eve's beautiful Eden!
**[08:30] ---**
What?
**[08:35] ---**
Welcome to the demons' paradise.
**[08:39] ---**
Demons?
**[08:41] ---**
"Come as other than yourself."
There are no rules.
**[08:45] ---**
You can become anything you wish.
**[08:49] ---**
This is your paradise.
**[08:52] ---**
Now, dance. Dance however you please.
**[08:56] ---**
I've never had such fun at a banquet!
**[08:59] ---**
It's a childhood dream come true!
**[09:02] ---**
A toast to our new king!
**[09:04] ---**
To King Richard III!
**[09:07] ---**
To our king!
**[09:10] ---**
Richard! Richard III!
**[09:15] ---**
I like it!
**[09:17] ---**
To this marvelous paradise!
**[09:20] ---**
It's lovely, Richard.
**[09:23] ---**
It wouldn't be worth taking otherwise.
**[09:27] ---**
Richard.
**[09:29] ---**
Are we Adam and Eve?
**[09:32] ---**
What do you mean?
**[09:33] ---**
I want to ask you something.
**[09:36] ---**
What is it?
**[09:37] ---**
Come.
**[09:38] ---**
Have you been hiding anything from me?
**[09:42] ---**
Tell me, Richard! Why are we
the only ones who are still ourselves?
**[09:48] ---**
If you have other costumes
prepared, tell me.
**[09:53] ---**
We can't just go as the king and queen.
**[09:58] ---**
I'm sorry, but I have none.
**[10:00] ---**
Then we're in luck.
**[10:02] ---**
You see, I have some ready here.
**[10:05] ---**
I got us disguises.
**[10:07] ---**
Disguises? They look
like ordinary clothes to me.
**[10:11] ---**
Not that one.
**[10:13] ---**
You'll wear this.
**[10:16] ---**
The king and queen trade places.
**[10:18] ---**
Doesn't it suit the theme perfectly?
**[10:21] ---**
Don't tell me she noticed something then.
**[10:26] ---**
If Richard really were a woman,
**[10:29] ---**
he would never appear as one in public.
**[10:35] ---**
If you don't want to, say so.
**[10:38] ---**
Do you have a reason
to avoid women's clothing?
**[10:42] ---**
Mother!
**[10:44] ---**
Will Father go in costume, too?
**[10:46] ---**
Yes! Your father will be the queen.
**[10:50] ---**
Your Majesty, if you have
nothing else, take my mask.
**[10:55] ---**
I'd love to see that!
**[10:57] ---**
Anne wouldn't test me if she was certain.
**[11:10] ---**
I have no choice. A firm refusal
would only deepen her suspicions.
**[11:16] ---**
How odd. I don't feel repulsed
like I did back then.
**[11:21] ---**
Is that because it's a costume?
Or because I've become a demon?
**[11:27] ---**
I never thought you'd end up
helping me to dress as a woman.
**[11:32] ---**
If I'd been raised as a woman,
**[11:35] ---**
would you have helped me
into a dress like this every day?
**[11:39] ---**
No, I doubt that I would have been
stationed at your side in that case.
**[11:45] ---**
Oh, I suppose not.
**[11:48] ---**
Excuse me.
**[11:50] ---**
If I were a woman, everything
would have been different.
**[11:56] ---**
But my beloved father called me his son,
**[12:01] ---**
so that alone became my pride.
**[12:05] ---**
Mother, you look so dashing!
It's wonderful!
**[12:09] ---**
Richard looked as though he had
to be pressured into wearing it.
**[12:14] ---**
Still, I'm sure I've been
worried for nothing.
**[12:18] ---**
I mean, it simply couldn't be true.
**[12:23] ---**
Anne.
**[12:37] ---**
Will this do?
**[12:39] ---**
I've never seen anyone
so beautiful before!
**[12:51] ---**
Is it too obvious who I am?
**[12:53] ---**
I should have worn a mask after all.
**[12:56] ---**
No wonder Edward got confused.
**[13:00] ---**
Even my body feels so hot
just being near her.
**[13:05] ---**
What's gotten into me?
**[13:07] ---**
Why does she seem so beautiful?
**[13:11] ---**
I beg your pardon, madam.
**[13:13] ---**
Would you care to dance with us?
**[13:15] ---**
N-No, he--*she*--is with me.
**[13:19] ---**
Why, sir! None of us
are ourselves tonight!
**[13:23] ---**
His Majesty commands it.
**[13:25] ---**
Let's dance.
**[13:26] ---**
Let's all forget about birth and names!
**[13:30] ---**
If...
**[13:32] ---**
If I weren't...
**[13:38] ---**
If I weren't Richard, then...
**[13:43] ---**
Stand aside, shepherd.
**[13:45] ---**
Now, let's go.
**[13:47] ---**
Where have I...?
**[13:49] ---**
No, I wouldn't recognize him
even if we had met.
**[13:54] ---**
That goes for everyone tonight.
**[13:58] ---**
I'll dance with this beauty!
**[14:00] ---**
No, I will!
**[14:01] ---**
I've been waiting longer!
**[14:03] ---**
Back off! She'd never choose you!
**[14:06] ---**
Now, my lady!
**[14:08] ---**
Make your choice!
**[14:10] ---**
Who? Who am I looking for?
**[14:13] ---**
Come on, Richard.
You've got to find them soon.
**[14:17] ---**
You have everything now,
so what are you afraid of?
**[14:21] ---**
Who will you choose?
**[14:23] ---**
--Who?
--Who?
**[14:25] ---**
Who?!
**[14:27] ---**
Who will I...?
**[14:32] ---**
A demon!
**[14:34] ---**
It's a demon!
**[14:39] ---**
You remind me of someone I know.
**[14:43] ---**
This voice.
**[14:45] ---**
These hands.
**[14:47] ---**
This warmth.
**[14:49] ---**
Buckingham. I've been
looking for you all this time.
**[14:56] ---**
It's simple. I don't put my soul
into words spoken for a woman.
**[15:03] ---**
But I can never speak the truth.
**[15:07] ---**
Even if I love so madly that my
soul's hellfire threatens to consume me.
**[15:14] ---**
Thank goodness you aren't
who you remind me of.
**[15:17] ---**
I would never want to let you go
again if you were.
**[15:21] ---**
No. I refuse.
**[15:23] ---**
I'll never let you release me again!
**[15:25] ---**
Don't go!
**[15:27] ---**
You can't be...
**[15:29] ---**
Richard!
**[15:30] ---**
I'm not Richard,
and you aren't yourself either.
**[15:36] ---**
Not tonight.
**[15:38] ---**
The beauty left with the devil.
**[15:40] ---**
If that was her costume,
what is she normally?
**[15:45] ---**
Richard.
**[15:48] ---**
Wait a moment.
**[15:50] ---**
Where are we going?
**[15:51] ---**
I don't care, as long as no one
recognizes us as a king and a duke.
**[15:59] ---**
Just tonight.
**[16:01] ---**
It's just for tonight.
**[16:11] ---**
How far do you intend to ride?
**[16:13] ---**
Further than this.
**[16:16] ---**
To somewhere where we can escape
from this whole world.
**[16:19] ---**
We'll be alone in these woods.
**[16:22] ---**
Hey! Stop the horse! We'll crash!
**[16:25] ---**
No subjects, nobles, or kings.
**[16:28] ---**
Richard!
**[16:31] ---**
Richard!
**[16:36] ---**
Do you want to die?!
**[16:42] ---**
Is that how the king you made
makes you look?
**[16:49] ---**
Does he fear losing everything he's built?
**[16:55] ---**
Or does he...
**[16:57] ---**
Why did you make me realize?
**[16:59] ---**
I may deny it with my mind,
but I can never again claim...
**[17:05] ---**
...that I have never loved anyone.
**[17:12] ---**
Look.
**[17:14] ---**
We were in a field of roses
when we made our pact as well.
**[17:20] ---**
I can never go back.
**[17:23] ---**
Not now that I realize the truth.
**[17:26] ---**
We're the same.
That's what you told me then.
**[17:33] ---**
Yes, I did.
**[17:35] ---**
We want the same thing.
**[17:38] ---**
Say it. Tell me your desire.
**[17:43] ---**
In truth, I've always...
**[17:47] ---**
...from the very beginning, I've...
**[17:52] ---**
Richard, I want you.
**[17:57] ---**
You belong to me.
**[18:23] ---**
We'll take ill if we
fall asleep like this.
**[18:26] ---**
I wouldn't mind freezing to death
if you're with me.
**[18:32] ---**
Return in my clothes.
**[18:34] ---**
Don't be ridiculous.
My brother kept a house near here.
**[18:40] ---**
Its caretaker should be absent tonight.
**[18:42] ---**
By the way, why were
you dressed like this?
**[18:46] ---**
Anne and Edward begged me.
**[18:48] ---**
Are you hurt?
**[18:50] ---**
I don't have my glasses.
**[18:53] ---**
Here.
**[18:57] ---**
Don't let go.
**[18:59] ---**
Never let go of my hand.
**[19:03] ---**
The night forest is always looking
for a chink in your warmth.
**[19:11] ---**
I wonder where Father went.
**[19:18] ---**
A boar?
**[19:21] ---**
Maybe I imagined it.
**[19:29] ---**
I beg your pard--
**[19:33] ---**
Who is he?
**[19:35] ---**
Might you be King Richard's son?
**[19:39] ---**
Y-Yes.
**[19:40] ---**
You don't look like him.
**[19:42] ---**
You're nothing alike, from the color
of your hair to the tips of your toes.
**[19:48] ---**
It makes me wonder:
**[19:50] ---**
Are you really his son?
**[19:53] ---**
What?
**[19:55] ---**
If your father was actually some man
from who knows where,
**[20:00] ---**
then that rumor might be true.
**[20:04] ---**
F-Father?
**[20:05] ---**
Sorry, but I'm not your father.
**[20:09] ---**
Elizabeth! What are you doing here?
**[20:12] ---**
I told you to call me Beth, remember?
**[20:21] ---**
Elizabeth.
**[20:24] ---**
The late king's daughter.
**[20:30] ---**
I never thought I'd see this place again.
**[20:34] ---**
You were my only salvation.
**[20:37] ---**
This place where I spent
that time with him.
**[20:42] ---**
Where are the clothes?
**[20:43] ---**
I'll fetch them while you warm yourself.
**[20:47] ---**
You don't need much looking after.
**[20:50] ---**
Who do you take me for?
I'm no longer a child.
**[20:54] ---**
Who am I comparing him to?
**[20:56] ---**
It can't be.
**[20:58] ---**
Is something wrong?
**[21:00] ---**
You've been odd since
we came to this house.
**[21:03] ---**
Are you well?
**[21:05] ---**
Nothing's wrong. I'm fine, Buckingham.
**[21:10] ---**
Yes. He's different.
**[21:13] ---**
Richard,
**[21:15] ---**
won't you call me by
my real name now, not my title?
**[21:20] ---**
My name.
**[21:23] ---**
Your name.
**[21:26] ---**
Yes. Henry Stafford.
**[21:30] ---**
Call me Henry.
**[21:33] ---**
But it's just so...
**[21:38] ---**
Just so much like that day,
which will never come again.
**[21:45] ---**
Are you here?

**[00:03] ---**
All begins and ends.
**[00:06] ---**
Within that cycle was I born,
unlooked for.
**[00:11] ---**
Who am I?
**[00:13] ---**
As of today, you're James Tyrrell.
**[00:17] ---**
Bring everyone salvation.
**[00:21] ---**
Where is James Tyrrell?
**[00:24] ---**
Tyrrell's a shepherd, sir.
**[00:26] ---**
We only give him room
and board for his work.
**[00:31] ---**
Then tell the shepherd this:
**[00:33] ---**
The future King Richard is his new master.
**[00:40] ---**
The living are punished.
**[00:44] ---**
We live today that we might perish.
**[00:51] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[00:53] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[00:56] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:02] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:42] ---**
Are you cold?
**[02:43] ---**
I'm fine as long as I have wine.
**[02:46] ---**
But this tastes dreadful.
**[02:48] ---**
We should have made a hot soup.
**[02:54] ---**
Forget about that time.
**[03:00] ---**
Having you with me is enough.
**[03:08] ---**
You're shaking.
**[03:10] ---**
Let me bear your darkness
and past with you.
**[03:14] ---**
I'm your other half.
**[03:18] ---**
I can't help but remember.
**[03:23] ---**
Remember the man who killed my heart.
**[03:28] ---**
The man I killed.
**[03:35] ---**
You once told me that you
killed someone you loved.
**[03:40] ---**
Yes. I loved him.
**[03:44] ---**
But that's because I didn't know.
**[03:48] ---**
He was a foe of York
and my father's killer:
**[03:53] ---**
the Lancastrian king!
**[03:56] ---**
I was young then. I found unease
and loneliness hard to bear.
**[04:03] ---**
He was my salvation.
**[04:06] ---**
He was innocent as a child my own age
**[04:09] ---**
and a grown man, warm as a father.
**[04:14] ---**
But in the end... he couldn't love me.
**[04:19] ---**
I thought my wounds were gone,
**[04:22] ---**
but the more fulfilled I am,
the wider they open.
**[04:26] ---**
So I can't help thinking that one day
**[04:30] ---**
you'll do the same.
**[04:35] ---**
Richard.
**[04:37] ---**
Call to me.
**[04:39] ---**
Say my name.
**[04:44] ---**
Yes.
**[04:46] ---**
Memories are merely timeworn corpses.
**[04:51] ---**
Henry.
**[04:55] ---**
Henry...
**[04:59] ---**
Why?
**[05:00] ---**
Why do I know this sound?
**[05:08] ---**
What? What?
**[05:11] ---**
What's come over me?
**[05:13] ---**
It won't stop.
**[05:16] ---**
When I pose as a shepherd
or feel the heat of blood
**[05:20] ---**
my dim existence seemed a little brighter.
**[05:26] ---**
The Duke of Buckingham
asked you to save someone.
**[05:31] ---**
His name is...
**[05:32] ---**
...George Plantagenet.
**[05:35] ---**
King Edward's little brother.
**[05:43] ---**
But perhaps, since before I was born,
**[05:48] ---**
I've always, always...
**[05:53] ---**
I too want to love someone.
**[05:58] ---**
What?
**[06:00] ---**
I'll go look.
**[06:03] ---**
Who--
**[06:06] ---**
Where have I seen this man before?
**[06:10] ---**
The Lancastrian king!
**[06:13] ---**
That's it. This is no mere resemblance.
**[06:17] ---**
He looks identical!
**[06:19] ---**
Name yourself!
**[06:21] ---**
The man who found me
called me James Tyrrell.
**[06:25] ---**
James Tyrrell!
**[06:27] ---**
I've been watching all along.
**[06:29] ---**
The way he opens his heart
to you is beautiful.
**[06:35] ---**
I want to join you in that radiance.
**[06:41] ---**
If you leave at once,
I promise to grant your wish later.
**[06:46] ---**
If you understand, go!
**[06:57] ---**
Honestly. There's such a thing
as being *too* kind to commoners.
**[07:01] ---**
You need to be stern with them.
**[07:03] ---**
Royalty must--
**[07:05] ---**
B-By the way, Beth,
what brings you to the palace?
**[07:08] ---**
I got an invitation.
**[07:10] ---**
Uncle Richard must have realized that
I could safely join in a masquerade.
**[07:17] ---**
What about Aunt Elizabeth?
**[07:19] ---**
She gave me permission,
if you can believe it.
**[07:23] ---**
God has not yet forsaken us.
**[07:28] ---**
I'll prepare a dress for you
somehow, so go in style.
**[07:31] ---**
But I thought you couldn't
stand Uncle Richard.
**[07:36] ---**
Your life is your own.
**[07:39] ---**
A mother shares her daughter's happiness.
**[07:46] ---**
Knowing my mother, I'm sure
she's scheming something.
**[07:51] ---**
Even so...
**[07:54] ---**
...I wanted to see you all.
**[08:00] ---**
But I should really leave
before I'm recognized.
**[08:07] ---**
I want to dance more.
**[08:10] ---**
Would you dance with us too?
**[08:16] ---**
Sure!
**[08:20] ---**
You went too far.
**[08:22] ---**
When do you mean?
**[08:23] ---**
The play! Tonight! All of it!
**[08:26] ---**
Oh, but it was just so fun that--
**[08:28] ---**
You'll endanger my position if
you make yourself conspicuous!
**[08:32] ---**
But it seems we have
a full cast of actors now.
**[08:36] ---**
Actors?
**[08:37] ---**
Yes.
**[08:38] ---**
And a script ending in a checkmate.
**[08:41] ---**
Dad.
**[08:42] ---**
"Dad"?!
**[08:45] ---**
What gives you the right to call me that?
**[08:47] ---**
Oh, please. We've known
the feel of the same hole.
**[08:53] ---**
You're my wife's son, not mine!
**[08:56] ---**
Leave me! I want no more
to do with rebels!
**[09:01] ---**
I suppose you wouldn't want
a rebel to call you "dad."
**[09:05] ---**
But how will you feel once I'm king?
**[09:09] ---**
What do you mean?!
**[09:12] ---**
Well then, "Father," farewell.
**[09:16] ---**
See you in the palace.
**[09:21] ---**
I brought you clothes.
**[09:23] ---**
Allow me.
**[09:30] ---**
And now the night is over.
**[09:33] ---**
We're a king and a duke again.
**[09:36] ---**
Yes, Your Royal Majesty.
**[09:42] ---**
Henry!
**[09:53] ---**
Ugh. I wish the party would never end.
**[09:57] ---**
Don't be silly. It *was* fun, though.
**[10:01] ---**
Who do you think that beautiful lady was?
**[10:04] ---**
Did you see the child dressed as a cat?
**[10:09] ---**
A charming little boy?
**[10:11] ---**
I danced with him!
**[10:13] ---**
Oh? You saw his face, then.
**[10:16] ---**
That was His Majesty's only son, Edward.
**[10:21] ---**
I think he did look like the queen!
**[10:23] ---**
No one recognizes him because
he hasn't been to London much.
**[10:28] ---**
His Majesty probably wanted to hide him.
**[10:31] ---**
After all,
**[10:33] ---**
the boy looks nothing like the king.
**[10:37] ---**
Ow.
**[10:39] ---**
I'm so sorry.
**[10:44] ---**
Prince Edward?
**[10:46] ---**
I hear that my father loved to fight.
**[10:52] ---**
I'm no good at it.
**[10:54] ---**
I'd rather study.
**[10:58] ---**
Troubled times forced him to take up arms.
**[11:02] ---**
Is something worrying you?
**[11:04] ---**
I was told that I look
nothing like my father.
**[11:10] ---**
That I'm not his son.
**[11:15] ---**
Edward.
**[11:17] ---**
Father.
**[11:19] ---**
Tell me about it.
**[11:22] ---**
The first time was at the banquet.
I was only startled then.
**[11:28] ---**
But the next morning...
**[11:30] ---**
It's true. Just look at his hair.
**[11:33] ---**
I sense no royal blood in him.
**[11:35] ---**
So, a cuckoo's child caused
their estrangement.
**[11:39] ---**
Everyone whispered strange
things when they saw me.
**[11:43] ---**
They've never been an affectionate couple.
**[11:46] ---**
Is that all?
**[11:48] ---**
Don't you all remember that rumor?
**[11:52] ---**
"Demon."
**[11:55] ---**
They called you a demon, Father.
**[11:58] ---**
I couldn't argue back.
**[12:02] ---**
I hated it,
**[12:04] ---**
but I was too frightened to speak.
**[12:06] ---**
I'm a weakling, so I need to get stronger.
**[12:12] ---**
For a moment, I imagined
**[12:15] ---**
this child turning his back
on me like my mother did.
**[12:22] ---**
What a pretty garden.
**[12:24] ---**
When I was your age,
I never once admired a flower.
**[12:31] ---**
The white rose was an oath of vengeance.
**[12:34] ---**
The red rose was proof of shed blood.
**[12:38] ---**
But now they all seem beautiful.
**[12:43] ---**
I needn't seek meaning in them;
they're simply there.
**[12:50] ---**
Before I knew it, I found them dear to me.
**[12:58] ---**
I didn't resemble my father either.
**[13:02] ---**
But no one shared a stronger
bond than we did.
**[13:08] ---**
Is this feeling truly hypocrisy or pity?
**[13:13] ---**
Gorgeous, dashing, and kind.
**[13:17] ---**
Father!
**[13:20] ---**
You are my light!
**[13:23] ---**
I may not know the true nature of love,
**[13:27] ---**
but I'm certain that I feel it now.
**[13:31] ---**
Edward, my son.
**[13:35] ---**
By your mere presence, you...
**[13:42] ---**
Buckingham, I trust you realize
why I summoned you.
**[13:46] ---**
Yes. The absurd rumors running
rampant in the palace.
**[13:50] ---**
No matter how often I suppress them,
they return like cursed ghosts.
**[13:56] ---**
These rumors are fatal to a king.
**[13:59] ---**
Edward is shaken as well.
**[14:03] ---**
I sense intent behind
these rumors' spread.
**[14:07] ---**
I'll take measures at once,
and so should Your Majesty.
**[14:11] ---**
Such as?
**[14:13] ---**
Even if we find the culprit,
the threat will return
**[14:16] ---**
until we cut it off at the source.
**[14:19] ---**
The best way to dispel
these untoward rumors
**[14:24] ---**
is for the queen to bear
you a child at once.
**[14:29] ---**
That isn't...
**[14:30] ---**
Your Majesty, I speak
as your loyal retainer.
**[14:34] ---**
But what if she rejects me?
**[14:39] ---**
Rejects this body of mine?
**[14:41] ---**
Unthinkable. She knows her duty as queen.
**[14:46] ---**
--She must realize--
--She doesn't know.
**[14:49] ---**
She doesn't know me.
**[14:53] ---**
What about you?
**[14:55] ---**
Everything.
**[14:57] ---**
What do you mean?
**[15:00] ---**
I've never made love to her.
**[15:04] ---**
Edward isn't my son by blood.
**[15:10] ---**
You swore
**[15:13] ---**
to keep no secrets.
**[15:15] ---**
Buckingham.
**[15:16] ---**
Disinherit him.
**[15:18] ---**
Have you forgotten that we
condemned Edward V as illegitimate?
**[15:24] ---**
If he is not of your blood, you must--
**[15:26] ---**
His blood is royal.
**[15:29] ---**
His father was King Henry's son.
**[15:31] ---**
The Lancastrian prince?!
**[15:33] ---**
He's not your son *and* of
our enemies' bloodline?!
**[15:37] ---**
Even your brother's sons would be better!
**[15:40] ---**
This is no distant memory!
**[15:42] ---**
You must see what a
threat this secret poses
**[15:46] ---**
to King Richard III!
**[15:52] ---**
I will protect Edward.
**[15:55] ---**
That child is my son.
**[16:01] ---**
I always had suspicions...
**[16:06] ---**
...but I trusted you.
**[16:11] ---**
Henry.
**[16:14] ---**
Why? Why?
**[16:17] ---**
The child of King Henry's son?
**[16:20] ---**
Don't give in to emotion.
Think what you ought to do.
**[16:23] ---**
There must be a solution.
**[16:29] ---**
I've been waiting, Henry.
**[16:31] ---**
Why here, of all places?
**[16:33] ---**
I have no time to indulge you now.
**[16:36] ---**
Begone!
**[16:37] ---**
No. You promised me.
**[16:40] ---**
Return to where you belong!
**[16:42] ---**
No. I won't leave until you tell me.
**[16:45] ---**
How can I love people?
**[16:48] ---**
Like you love that person
and that person loves you.
**[16:53] ---**
Why would you want to know love?
**[16:57] ---**
Once you do, you can never go back.
**[17:00] ---**
I thought I need only
cut a path through briars.
**[17:04] ---**
I feared nothing then, but no more.
**[17:08] ---**
My feelings distract me
even at this moment.
**[17:13] ---**
Why? Why?
**[17:16] ---**
What did I give up on you for?
**[17:21] ---**
Explain yourself!
**[17:23] ---**
You looked sad.
**[17:25] ---**
Don't treat me like a weakling!
**[17:28] ---**
But I want to save miserable people.
**[17:31] ---**
The strong don't seek my salvation.
**[17:34] ---**
That's right. I don't need you!
**[17:39] ---**
But what of Richard?
**[17:41] ---**
Richard said he'd protect
the Lancastrian boy.
**[17:45] ---**
The blood of Henry VI!
**[17:49] ---**
Edward's sons would be better, he says?
**[17:53] ---**
Why?
**[17:54] ---**
We swore to shoulder my darkness and
past together. To be halves of one whole.
**[18:05] ---**
What if...
**[18:07] ---**
What if he never returns?
**[18:11] ---**
What if I've lost him?
**[18:15] ---**
That's impossible.
**[18:18] ---**
Calm down.
**[18:19] ---**
We can resolve a trifle
like this soon enough.
**[18:22] ---**
He only left to take measures.
**[18:24] ---**
Yes. He's my other half.
**[18:27] ---**
He'll soon be--
**[18:28] ---**
Buckingham!
**[18:31] ---**
It's me, Richard.
**[18:33] ---**
Anne.
**[18:34] ---**
My lady's maids asked to see
acrobatics at tonight's dinner.
**[18:39] ---**
May I call for jesters?
**[18:41] ---**
Yes. I don't mind.
**[18:43] ---**
Richard, you look ill.
**[18:47] ---**
I lost sight of you partway
through the banquet,
**[18:51] ---**
but I see you partied through the night.
**[18:55] ---**
You were truly beautiful that night.
**[19:00] ---**
Richard, let me see to
the dinner arrangements.
**[19:04] ---**
I'm sure that Edward
will like jesters too.
**[19:11] ---**
I meant to ask him
**[19:14] ---**
who the devil that abducted
the beauty was.
**[19:19] ---**
But that look on Richard's face...
**[19:23] ---**
What am I doing?
I can't let this shake me.
**[19:27] ---**
I have everything I wished for right here.
**[19:37] ---**
Catesby, where's Buckingham?
**[19:41] ---**
He will be dining with a guest
in his chambers tonight.
**[19:47] ---**
I see.
**[19:49] ---**
Father, may I ask you for something?
**[19:52] ---**
Yes. What?
**[19:54] ---**
I'd like you to bring Beth
back to the palace.
**[19:59] ---**
Disinherit him.
**[20:01] ---**
She seemed so happy dancing
with everyone at the party.
**[20:07] ---**
He wants me to abandon this child?
**[20:10] ---**
Absurd.
**[20:12] ---**
There must be another way.
**[20:14] ---**
No matter how many briars bar my path.
**[20:17] ---**
That's right. You even made
this crown worthwhile.
**[20:22] ---**
Familiar unease and fear
crawled up from the darkness,
**[20:26] ---**
forming a dark pool in my heart
no matter how I tried to stop it.
**[20:31] ---**
Father?
**[20:33] ---**
Do as you please.
**[20:35] ---**
Do you mean it?
**[20:37] ---**
Richard?
**[20:38] ---**
Don't mind me. I'll be right back.
**[20:45] ---**
Where are you? Hurry to my side,
**[20:49] ---**
Henry!
**[20:58] ---**
Jesters and more food than they can eat!
**[21:02] ---**
It must be nice to be king!
**[21:04] ---**
And the former king sits
reading in an animal pen.
**[21:07] ---**
Be quiet and dream of Mom,
you illiterate baby.
**[21:11] ---**
"I miss you, Mommy!
Take me away from here!"
**[21:16] ---**
I only said that once! In my sleep!
**[21:18] ---**
Stop harping on about it!
**[21:21] ---**
He's useless! He was just born sooner!
**[21:24] ---**
Being stuck in here with him is hell.
**[21:28] ---**
Really, when will we be
able to leave this place?
**[21:31] ---**
Richard had better not
leave us here forever.
**[21:38] ---**
Your Majesty,
**[21:40] ---**
King Edward V.
**[21:44] ---**
Have no fear.
**[21:46] ---**
I've come to save you.

**[00:01] ---**
Your Majesty,
**[00:03] ---**
King Edward V.
**[00:06] ---**
Have no fear.
**[00:09] ---**
I've come to save you.
**[00:12] ---**
Who are you?!
**[00:14] ---**
You have nothing to fear from me.
**[00:17] ---**
Look: I've brought you sweet treats.
**[00:21] ---**
Did my mother send you?
**[00:23] ---**
The *true king* has many allies.
**[00:27] ---**
As we speak, the palace is abuzz with
talk that Richard's son is illegitimate.
**[00:32] ---**
Support for him has been on
the wane since his accession.
**[00:36] ---**
Everyone is saying that, after all,
Edward V was the rightful king.
**[00:44] ---**
It took those fools long
enough to realize.
**[00:48] ---**
The palace eagerly awaits
Your Majesty's return.
**[00:53] ---**
Now go, before the guards notice.
**[00:57] ---**
Make haste. Your supporters
await you at the gate.
**[01:01] ---**
Await the true king's return.
**[01:06] ---**
When time is out of joint, the hero
saves the true king and sets it right.
**[01:12] ---**
Not for himself--oh, no--
**[01:15] ---**
but for justice only.
**[01:18] ---**
But what is "justice"?
**[01:20] ---**
The right bloodline? The proper ritual?
**[01:23] ---**
Not at all.
**[01:25] ---**
It's who everyone likes.
**[01:32] ---**
Dreadful news!
**[01:34] ---**
The children have escaped the Tower!
**[01:38] ---**
Fate has been decided from the first.
**[01:44] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:46] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:49] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:55] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:35] ---**
What's all the fuss?
**[03:36] ---**
The children in the Tower escaped!
**[03:39] ---**
What?!
**[03:40] ---**
Fortunately, they were returned
to the Tower at once,
**[03:44] ---**
but the intruder hasn't been found.
**[03:48] ---**
Unhand me! I am King Edward V!
**[03:52] ---**
Richard!
**[03:53] ---**
I hear your son's bloodline is in doubt!
**[03:56] ---**
And no wonder: you *are* a demon!
**[04:00] ---**
Take them away!
**[04:02] ---**
Just you watch!
**[04:03] ---**
Everyone will beg me to take
my throne back soon!
**[04:06] ---**
I have hordes of supporters!
**[04:11] ---**
I knew those rumors were to blame.
**[04:14] ---**
If this is all according
to our enemy's script,
**[04:18] ---**
then that boy is a liability.
**[04:21] ---**
Henry, shall I save you?
**[04:26] ---**
If you'll give me what I desire...
**[04:30] ---**
What do you mean?
**[04:32] ---**
You aren't my king,
but my king does love you.
**[04:37] ---**
If you teach me about love,
I will grant your wish.
**[04:44] ---**
I'll kill whomever you desire.
**[04:52] ---**
Don't make a fuss.
**[04:54] ---**
I don't want it said that I took ill
so soon after my accession.
**[04:59] ---**
But the queen ordered me
to summon physicians at once.
**[05:02] ---**
I assume you refused.
How could I show a physician this body?
**[05:07] ---**
Your coronation in York
is fast approaching.
**[05:11] ---**
She refuses to make the journey
if your health is poor.
**[05:16] ---**
I can't approve a long
journey while ill either.
**[05:20] ---**
Then bring *her* to me.
**[05:24] ---**
Buckingham did say he had
engaged her as a royal physician.
**[05:32] ---**
You are still a criminal.
**[05:35] ---**
If you harm His Majesty,
you may not live to regret it.
**[05:42] ---**
It's an honor to see you again,
**[05:46] ---**
Your Royal Majesty.
**[05:50] ---**
By your leave.
**[05:53] ---**
Any pain? Any changes in your diet?
**[05:57] ---**
No.
**[05:58] ---**
Nausea, perhaps?
**[06:00] ---**
Well... I've had much on my mind.
**[06:04] ---**
Have you been feverish?
**[06:10] ---**
How dare you?!
**[06:13] ---**
I can't diagnose him without touching him.
**[06:16] ---**
I've never examined his body before.
**[06:19] ---**
Would you please show me everything?
**[06:26] ---**
Show no surprise.
**[06:28] ---**
I forbid it.
**[06:32] ---**
May I draw the curtains?
**[06:40] ---**
That's all for today.
I don't have the tools to do more.
**[06:44] ---**
And your conclusion?
**[06:47] ---**
Your Majesty has regular
intercourse with someone.
**[06:53] ---**
I trust you can imagine the rest?
**[07:00] ---**
I'm not a woman!
**[07:02] ---**
But you are both a woman and a man.
**[07:07] ---**
The possibility exists.
**[07:11] ---**
With this body?
**[07:13] ---**
Such a thing could never be.
**[07:16] ---**
Everyone's body is different--unique.
**[07:20] ---**
If you need medicine, send for me.
**[07:25] ---**
Although I'd like you to release me first.
**[07:36] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[07:38] ---**
Forgive me. I know you depart tomorrow,
**[07:41] ---**
but I wish to return to my estates.
**[07:44] ---**
Why?
**[07:46] ---**
I have long been absent.
It seemed a good opportunity.
**[07:50] ---**
Farewell.
**[07:59] ---**
You are a demon child!
A bloodstained devil!
**[08:05] ---**
Richard? Perhaps we should stop.
**[08:08] ---**
Anne, ride on ahead of me.
I'll soon catch up.
**[08:12] ---**
Very well.
**[08:14] ---**
I'll await you in York.
**[08:21] ---**
Your Majesty, I will accompany you.
**[08:30] ---**
I'll kill whomever you desire.
**[08:35] ---**
The answer is obvious.
**[08:37] ---**
For the throne, and for you.
**[08:43] ---**
Buckingham.
**[08:48] ---**
I came to speak with you.
**[08:51] ---**
Can we be alone somewhere to--
**[08:52] ---**
Inform the chamberlain
that His Majesty has arrived.
**[08:56] ---**
Welcome him with all due ceremony.
**[09:00] ---**
Where is your wife?
**[09:02] ---**
She is a Woodville.
**[09:04] ---**
She hasn't shown herself to me
once since your accession.
**[09:11] ---**
I'm likely your only ally in this house.
**[09:16] ---**
Your house *was* originally Lancastrian.
**[09:20] ---**
But I thought highly of your father.
**[09:24] ---**
I need more time.
**[09:26] ---**
I'm devising the best solution
to our problem.
**[09:33] ---**
What was I hoping to hear?
**[09:35] ---**
Forgiveness? Apology? Or...
**[09:40] ---**
Very well.
**[09:42] ---**
Richard!
**[09:44] ---**
No. Words don't matter.
**[09:49] ---**
I simply desired to see you.
**[09:59] ---**
Are you well?
**[10:03] ---**
Henry.
**[10:09] ---**
I can't remain calm while I'm with you.
**[10:14] ---**
I try to set my feelings
aside, but I can't.
**[10:18] ---**
I cannot bear the mere thought
that anything but me
**[10:23] ---**
has even a tiny place in your heart.
**[10:28] ---**
Before I know it, I think:
**[10:32] ---**
What can I do...
**[10:38] ---**
What can I do to make you mine alone?
**[10:43] ---**
Richard, we can't go on.
**[10:51] ---**
You fainted. I shouldn't have pushed you.
**[10:54] ---**
I'm fine. My physician agrees.
**[10:58] ---**
Physician? You summoned Jane?
**[11:01] ---**
Yes.
**[11:02] ---**
And she found nothing wrong?
**[11:04] ---**
Jane said...
**[11:06] ---**
Your Majesty has regular
intercourse with someone.
**[11:11] ---**
I trust you can imagine the rest?
**[11:14] ---**
It's impossible, of course.
**[11:17] ---**
If that's true--
**[11:19] ---**
It can't be. It's nightmarish.
**[11:23] ---**
But if by any chance it is true?
**[11:28] ---**
I have that medicine.
**[11:32] ---**
--Richard.
--Don't worry.
**[11:35] ---**
It's all Jane's absurd fancies.
**[11:38] ---**
It's not possible.
**[11:39] ---**
More importantly, Henry,
**[11:42] ---**
go to York with me.
**[11:44] ---**
I'm to be crowned in my father's city.
**[11:48] ---**
I want you at my side.
**[11:50] ---**
We won the crown together.
**[11:54] ---**
You cut through every briar in my path.
**[12:00] ---**
And your health?
**[12:02] ---**
I'll be fine, as long as you're with me.
**[12:07] ---**
Relaxing has restored my appetite.
**[12:10] ---**
I hardly took a bite earlier.
**[12:13] ---**
I'll bring food, then.
**[12:16] ---**
A duke will serve me personally?
**[12:19] ---**
He will.
**[12:24] ---**
What is this pain?
**[12:27] ---**
I have that medicine.
**[12:28] ---**
It feels like something
gouging out my entrails.
**[12:32] ---**
I tried so many times
to discard my love for you.
**[12:37] ---**
To cool my head and plot
measures against the prince.
**[12:42] ---**
All for the crown.
**[12:45] ---**
No. No!
**[12:48] ---**
It's all a mistake!
**[12:51] ---**
My desire isn't for the crown.
**[12:54] ---**
That day we met,
**[12:57] ---**
I wished from the bottom
of my heart for...
**[13:26] ---**
What's going on?!
**[13:29] ---**
Richard.
**[13:32] ---**
Henry, explain yourself.
**[13:35] ---**
I'm going to keep you here.
**[13:39] ---**
I won't let you go to York.
**[13:44] ---**
You won't let me go to York?
**[13:46] ---**
That's right.
**[13:47] ---**
What?! Enough nonsense!
**[13:51] ---**
It's not nonsense.
**[13:53] ---**
With the passage of time, your hair will
grow out like a black veil.
**[13:57] ---**
Once it covers your shoulders, no one
will recognize you as "King Richard."
**[14:01] ---**
Are you mad?!
**[14:04] ---**
I'll let it be known that
the king is gravely ill.
**[14:06] ---**
Leave governance to me.
**[14:09] ---**
That flimsy excuse won't--
**[14:10] ---**
I know you wanted this too!
**[14:14] ---**
That night, our desires
were one and the same.
**[14:18] ---**
If you were no longer king,
we could be together always.
**[14:22] ---**
We needn't give up on loving each other.
**[14:26] ---**
Should I go to check on him?
**[14:29] ---**
He promised to return by morning.
**[14:33] ---**
His Majesty is a man of his word.
**[14:39] ---**
I'll take you outside once you calm down.
**[14:42] ---**
I have beautiful places to show you.
**[14:46] ---**
I won't keep you shut up
in a tower forever.
**[14:49] ---**
I plan to prepare a house where
we can live in secret.
**[14:55] ---**
Live with Henry in the woods or somewhere?
**[14:58] ---**
Live as an anonymous woman,
unknown to anyone?
**[15:04] ---**
Taste the golden dew of sleep in
the embrace of gentle warmth?
**[15:09] ---**
That would be far too good for a demon.
**[15:14] ---**
With love that I thought would
never be within my grasp?
**[15:18] ---**
What more could a demon dare to wish for?
**[15:22] ---**
What's wrong?
**[15:23] ---**
Nothing.
**[15:25] ---**
I have something to give you.
**[15:27] ---**
Proof that I pledge my soul to you.
**[15:31] ---**
What more can I ask for?
**[15:33] ---**
Congratulations, Richard.
**[15:35] ---**
You'll never again shrink, alone and
freezing, from the voices of your curse.
**[15:40] ---**
Am I wrong?
**[15:42] ---**
I did wish to prolong our time
together as long as possible,
**[15:47] ---**
even if it meant discarding
that blood and name.
**[15:54] ---**
Even the name of a king.
**[15:56] ---**
I already told you. His Majesty
departed this morning.
**[15:59] ---**
That can't be true!
**[16:01] ---**
Ask His Grace again!
**[16:04] ---**
Richard.
**[16:06] ---**
I was held prisoner many
times in my childhood.
**[16:09] ---**
I believe you were as well, Henry.
**[16:12] ---**
Our lives always belonged
to someone with power.
**[16:17] ---**
We cursed our impotence
and struggled against fate.
**[16:22] ---**
Aren't these the briars
we strove to clear away?
**[16:28] ---**
You're right. I did wish.
**[16:31] ---**
That's why, that night, I told you plainly
**[16:35] ---**
that I desired the crown
with all my heart.
**[16:40] ---**
The future we swore together is...
**[16:44] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[16:45] ---**
Catesby!
**[16:46] ---**
I saw you in the window and grew worried.
**[16:50] ---**
Duke of Buckingham, explain yourself.
**[16:52] ---**
Catesby, sheathe your sword.
**[16:58] ---**
Unchain me, Buckingham.
**[17:06] ---**
Yes, Your Majesty.
**[17:11] ---**
Was it wise to let him go unpunished?
**[17:14] ---**
His crimes are my own.
**[17:17] ---**
Follow me when you're ready.
**[17:19] ---**
I'll be waiting in York.
**[17:22] ---**
He *will* come to York.
**[17:24] ---**
Buckingham is my other half.
**[17:28] ---**
Richard,
**[17:29] ---**
what do you truly desire?
**[17:32] ---**
Is that really...
**[17:34] ---**
Is that really your wish?
**[17:38] ---**
Once lost, it can never be regained.
**[17:41] ---**
Will you choose a future of sleepless
nights in the depths of despair
**[17:45] ---**
crushed by the weight of what you've lost?
**[17:50] ---**
I'm not the briars that
bind you now, Richard.
**[17:54] ---**
The blood on your throne
and the "name of a king" are.
**[17:59] ---**
Henry,
**[18:00] ---**
have you decided on your wish?
**[18:04] ---**
If all goes as planned,
**[18:05] ---**
we can meet the royal procession
to York at the church up ahead.
**[18:11] ---**
George is buried in that church.
**[18:14] ---**
I'll pray for him.
**[18:16] ---**
The Lancastrian Edward is there as well.
**[18:19] ---**
That's true.
**[18:22] ---**
Edward. That boy's father.
**[18:27] ---**
Does someone you knew rest here?
**[18:30] ---**
My family.
**[18:35] ---**
It's so quiet.
**[18:37] ---**
The clamor of the city and my days
at war seem as though they never were.
**[18:43] ---**
Many soldiers perished in this land.
**[18:47] ---**
Even Prince Edward,
who fought for Lancaster.
**[18:52] ---**
I fought here that day myself.
**[18:55] ---**
It's not much, but accept my contribution.
**[19:00] ---**
You remind me of Prince Edward's father.
**[19:03] ---**
King Henry VI was a pious and
compassionate man like you.
**[19:09] ---**
Unlike the current king.
**[19:12] ---**
What sort of man is
the current king, then?
**[19:16] ---**
A villain who slew even
his friends and brothers.
**[19:20] ---**
He would murder even a child
to further his ambitions.
**[19:25] ---**
Richard III is a demon king.
**[19:29] ---**
Yes, he's right.
**[19:31] ---**
I became a demon,
and all to gain my crown.
**[19:36] ---**
I ensnared, robbed, and killed
all who stood in my way.
**[19:44] ---**
He and I became demons together.
**[19:48] ---**
But now...
**[19:52] ---**
Please wait.
**[19:54] ---**
Might you be...
**[19:59] ---**
The light is overhead.
**[20:03] ---**
Your Majesty, King Richard III!
**[20:07] ---**
I expect to visit more
frequently from now on.
**[20:12] ---**
I'll teach all England who Richard III is.
**[20:17] ---**
His name, his face,
**[20:19] ---**
and his power.
**[20:21] ---**
The reign of Richard III
is just beginning.
**[20:35] ---**
Has my sentence been passed,
or have you merely come to torment me,
**[20:41] ---**
Duke of Buckingham?
**[20:42] ---**
I'm a sinner, but so are you!
**[20:46] ---**
You'll get your just deserts in time!
**[20:49] ---**
As you say.
**[20:52] ---**
I took part in a usurpation
and deceived the innocent.
**[20:59] ---**
Please forgive me, Your Excellency.
**[21:02] ---**
Richard is bewitching and charming.
His devilish charisma led me astray.
**[21:07] ---**
I took leave of my senses.
**[21:10] ---**
I trust you will understand.
**[21:12] ---**
O-Of course! You couldn't help it!
**[21:15] ---**
If Your Grace repents
and turns over a new leaf,
**[21:19] ---**
the Lord God will surely forgive you!
**[21:22] ---**
I came here to do just that.
**[21:25] ---**
Your Excellency, let us atone
for our sins together.
**[21:30] ---**
Henry,
**[21:31] ---**
have you decided on your wish?
**[21:34] ---**
Yes. And I'll teach you
what you wish to know.
**[21:43] ---**
James Tyrrell,
**[21:46] ---**
kill Richard III.

**[00:03] ---**
That day, gasping for breath,
**[00:06] ---**
I sought my father.
**[00:08] ---**
I felt certain that he
awaited me in this city.
**[00:11] ---**
Father!
**[00:14] ---**
Edward.
**[00:15] ---**
Anne.
**[00:16] ---**
Pardon my delay.
**[00:18] ---**
We've been waiting for you.
**[00:22] ---**
So have the people of York.
**[00:24] ---**
Waiting for Richard III to come home.
**[00:28] ---**
Be a king for the sake of his name,
until you die in glory.
**[00:38] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[00:40] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[00:43] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[00:49] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[02:32] ---**
Rebellion?
**[02:34] ---**
I was astonished to hear it
from the Duke of Buckingham.
**[02:38] ---**
He grew dissatisfied because the king
denied him his promised reward.
**[02:44] ---**
In the end,
**[02:46] ---**
he came to worry that his own
head would be the next to roll.
**[02:52] ---**
And so, he desires your aid. You are an
honorable gentleman and our comrade.
**[02:56] ---**
Our rebellion needs
a trustworthy new leader.
**[03:02] ---**
It's difficult to believe,
**[03:04] ---**
but if Buckingham, a great lord
and the king's right hand, revolts,
**[03:10] ---**
the foundations of Richard III's
reign will be worse than shaken.
**[03:17] ---**
A rebel leader?
**[03:20] ---**
You called, Dad?
**[03:22] ---**
I've told you not to call--
**[03:24] ---**
Why, this is a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity to get ahead!
**[03:28] ---**
If you play your cards right, you'll come
out on top no matter who triumphs!
**[03:33] ---**
But can you trust Buckingham?
He was so devoted to the king.
**[03:39] ---**
Is that what you're thinking, Dad?
**[03:41] ---**
I concur.
**[03:43] ---**
I have no wish to fight a losing battle.
**[03:47] ---**
Then how about this?
**[03:48] ---**
Tell Buckingham to bring you a gift if
he's serious about turning on Richard.
**[03:56] ---**
Those boys in the Tower are still alive.
**[03:59] ---**
Many still view them as
the rightful heirs to the crown.
**[04:05] ---**
I suppose.
**[04:06] ---**
You *suppose*?!
**[04:08] ---**
You pose as a fence-sitter
in perfect safety,
**[04:11] ---**
all the while plotting to put your
stepson at the head of a rebel army!
**[04:16] ---**
I wish to be *king*, Father.
**[04:19] ---**
And should a parent not
reward his child's efforts?
**[04:22] ---**
Hm?
**[04:24] ---**
Tell Buckingham that
**[04:27] ---**
you'll join forces with him if he
kills the children in the Tower.
**[04:34] ---**
Damn Stanley.
**[04:36] ---**
I anticipated this response,
but he's still a nuisance.
**[04:40] ---**
But by joining forces with his stepson,
the Earl of Richmond,
**[04:45] ---**
I can win Lancastrian
support for my cause.
**[04:49] ---**
I had considered how to eliminate those
boys as a means to protect Richard,
**[04:55] ---**
but if I kill them now,
Richard must be the culprit.
**[05:00] ---**
When shall I kill him?
**[05:03] ---**
The time is not yet ripe.
**[05:05] ---**
To kill Richard,
we'll first need a sacrifice.
**[05:09] ---**
Will that truly save him?
**[05:12] ---**
Yes, and you as well.
**[05:16] ---**
Is that your love?
**[05:20] ---**
It is.
**[05:36] ---**
He's just late. He *will* come back.
**[05:40] ---**
He'll announce himself and kiss
my hand without a hint of shame.
**[05:46] ---**
I know he will.
**[05:49] ---**
Richard.
**[05:52] ---**
Can you hear them, Richard?
**[05:55] ---**
I know you can hear those longing cries.
**[05:58] ---**
They call the name of a king.
**[06:01] ---**
Now go, Richard.
**[06:03] ---**
I am with you.
**[06:07] ---**
King Richard!
**[06:08] ---**
It's King Richard!
**[06:10] ---**
King Richard III is here!
**[06:15] ---**
Noble and bold people of York.
**[06:19] ---**
Thank you for your warm welcome.
**[06:22] ---**
I once beheld hell in this city.
**[06:26] ---**
The sun was extinguished,
leaving only deepest darkness.
**[06:30] ---**
Such was the death of my father,
whom I loved him best in all the world.
**[06:35] ---**
Yet for all the tears I shed on his grave,
**[06:38] ---**
my sword shed far more enemy
blood on the field of battle!
**[06:44] ---**
And now,
**[06:46] ---**
I have returned here!
**[06:49] ---**
I offer this golden light to my
great father and the city of York!
**[06:55] ---**
King Richard III!
**[06:56] ---**
Long live the king!
**[07:04] ---**
Light for this city.
**[07:11] ---**
I wish to promote those whom
the light has not yet touched.
**[07:17] ---**
Once I return to London--
**[07:18] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[07:20] ---**
A man just delivered this.
**[07:24] ---**
This is from Buckingham!
**[07:27] ---**
And the messenger?
**[07:28] ---**
His, um, hood hid his face,
but he bid me give you this.
**[07:34] ---**
It can't be!
**[07:37] ---**
Richard?
**[07:38] ---**
I know that you'll come back.
I'm certain of it!
**[07:42] ---**
You will
**[07:44] ---**
return to me!
**[07:48] ---**
Henry!
**[08:00] ---**
It can't be.
**[08:02] ---**
Who is he? Am I hallucinating?
**[08:06] ---**
You're wrong, Richard. I'm James Tyrrell.
**[08:10] ---**
Your assassin.
**[08:22] ---**
It's not time for that yet.
**[08:26] ---**
This man is James Tyrrell?
**[08:29] ---**
He's the very image of Henry VI.
**[08:33] ---**
How...?
**[08:34] ---**
How could this be?
**[08:36] ---**
Even his voice is identical.
**[08:38] ---**
I need to know you better.
**[08:42] ---**
Before the time comes.
**[08:46] ---**
--Wait!
--Your Majesty!
**[08:49] ---**
You were late in returning.
**[08:51] ---**
Did the Duke of Buckingham...?
**[08:57] ---**
It wasn't him.
**[08:59] ---**
It wasn't Henry.
**[09:09] ---**
That clown gave us these sweets.
**[09:12] ---**
I'll eat them all while Edward's sleeping.
**[09:15] ---**
Damnation!
**[09:16] ---**
E-Edward?
**[09:17] ---**
Damn! Damn! Damn!
I'm too furious to sleep!
**[09:20] ---**
Why don't my "supporters"
come to my rescue?!
**[09:22] ---**
Are they all incompetent?!
**[09:24] ---**
P-Please calm down, Edward.
**[09:26] ---**
Try to imagine something happy,
like what you'll do once you're restored.
**[09:33] ---**
Good idea.
**[09:36] ---**
If he ever does get the throne back,
**[09:38] ---**
I'll have to go back to waiting
on him like a servant.
**[09:44] ---**
Before that happens,
I might as well just...
**[09:47] ---**
I'll start with a feast.
**[09:48] ---**
Huh?
**[09:49] ---**
I'll summon Mother, and Elizabeth, too.
**[09:53] ---**
And then
**[09:55] ---**
I'll execute Richard as
an example to everyone.
**[09:59] ---**
And his son too?
**[10:02] ---**
After we show him his
father's miserable corpse.
**[10:05] ---**
How his wife will weep and despair!
**[10:08] ---**
We'll bake the bodies into pies
and make his servants eat them.
**[10:11] ---**
We'll toast with blood for wine!
**[10:13] ---**
Why stop there?
Let's think up something crueler.
**[10:18] ---**
I feel a bit better.
**[10:20] ---**
Huh?
**[10:22] ---**
If you weren't here...
**[10:26] ---**
If I were alone, I would have gone mad.
**[10:29] ---**
S-Stop. That's not like you.
**[10:33] ---**
Will we kill each other someday too?
**[10:38] ---**
Like our father and our uncles did?
**[10:43] ---**
I've been thinking.
**[10:45] ---**
If we get out of here...
**[10:49] ---**
...I'd like us to be friends.
**[10:53] ---**
Edward.
**[10:59] ---**
Shall we eat them together?
**[11:04] ---**
Hey. Keep quiet.
**[11:06] ---**
What does it matter?
Our client owns the Tower.
**[11:14] ---**
How sweet they look.
**[11:16] ---**
This must be the beauty
of the Lord's chosen.
**[11:20] ---**
Still, they sleep like logs.
**[11:24] ---**
Almost like they're dead already.
**[11:28] ---**
Hm?
**[11:32] ---**
One can never be too careful.
Hard biscuits are best for long journeys.
**[11:42] ---**
Henry.
**[11:44] ---**
Richard.
**[11:45] ---**
Not you!
**[11:46] ---**
I need to know you better.
**[11:49] ---**
What the devil does it mean?!
**[11:51] ---**
I feel like I'm losing my mind.
**[11:55] ---**
What is there to fear?
**[11:57] ---**
*We* are God's anointed king.
**[12:02] ---**
That's right. The war is over.
**[12:05] ---**
No one can threaten me now.
**[12:10] ---**
Pardon me.
**[12:12] ---**
Tidings just arrived from London.
**[12:15] ---**
Your Majesty?
**[12:20] ---**
Buckingham is... in revolt.
**[12:27] ---**
The Duke of Buckingham, revolt?
**[12:30] ---**
Impossible.
**[12:32] ---**
Richard.
**[12:34] ---**
Unless you relinquish your crown in
one month's time, by St. Luke's Day,
**[12:39] ---**
an army will march on London
to dethrone Richard III.
**[12:45] ---**
Therefore, I cannot go to York.
**[12:49] ---**
I have only one wish.
**[12:53] ---**
Richard, a forest called Dean
lies on the road to my castle.
**[12:59] ---**
Let us meet there. We will cross
the river, and then the sea.
**[13:05] ---**
Richard...
**[13:11] ---**
Forsake your crown and come to
those woods before the day appointed.
**[13:16] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[13:18] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[13:20] ---**
Say nothing of this to anyone.
**[13:23] ---**
Which matter do you mean?
**[13:26] ---**
Buckingham, of course!
**[13:30] ---**
I beg your pardon.
**[13:33] ---**
Forgive me, Catesby.
**[13:35] ---**
Now, what news from London?
**[13:38] ---**
The children in the Tower are gone.
**[13:41] ---**
Make haste to London.
**[13:43] ---**
Certainly.
**[13:44] ---**
No, wait!
**[13:45] ---**
Something's wrong.
If the rebels absconded with them,
**[13:50] ---**
could Buckingham be involved?
**[13:52] ---**
To quash the rebellion, I must raise
troops and strike the foe before--
**[13:57] ---**
Foe? Am I going to slay him?
**[14:00] ---**
Nonsense!
**[14:03] ---**
Spread rumors that the children are dead.
They'll make poor figureheads that way.
**[14:08] ---**
At once.
**[14:10] ---**
Why, Henry?
**[14:13] ---**
Why?!
**[14:50] ---**
It can't be.
**[14:52] ---**
Would that it were but a nightmare.
**[14:55] ---**
Yet there are witnesses.
**[14:59] ---**
The lifeless bodies of King
Edward V and Prince Richard
**[15:03] ---**
were taken from the Tower
in the dead of night.
**[15:09] ---**
How horrible!
**[15:11] ---**
No! No! Not my darling sons!
**[15:15] ---**
No. It isn't true.
**[15:16] ---**
Why, God?!
**[15:18] ---**
That beautiful sapling should have grown
to prop up all of England as king!
**[15:24] ---**
And yet... And yet...
**[15:26] ---**
That demon must have done it!
**[15:29] ---**
How much will you take from me
before you're satisfied, Richard?!
**[15:34] ---**
Why not kill me as well?!
**[15:36] ---**
Make Westminster my grave, and--
**[15:38] ---**
Your Majesty mustn't say such things.
**[15:43] ---**
Look. You still have a fine princess.
**[15:50] ---**
You're right. The Lord sends us trials,
**[15:55] ---**
but justice always wins out in the end.
**[15:59] ---**
We shall unite our two lights
**[16:02] ---**
and help them ascend to a lofty
height second only to God.
**[16:06] ---**
My Beth and your son Richmond
**[16:10] ---**
will reach England's
highest rank of dignity.
**[16:15] ---**
How odd. The brothers always
look out of that window.
**[16:19] ---**
Now that you mention it,
I haven't seen them.
**[16:22] ---**
They've vanished from the Tower.
Rumor has it they're dead.
**[16:25] ---**
How could it be a mystery?
**[16:28] ---**
They were in the palace.
**[16:30] ---**
Our greatest enemy is within.
**[16:32] ---**
He'll never let anyone
stand in his way and live.
**[16:35] ---**
He even slew innocent children
to defend his stolen throne!
**[16:39] ---**
Tear that demon from the throne!
**[16:43] ---**
Soldiers swarm to join us.
**[16:45] ---**
The stratagem was a success.
**[16:47] ---**
The Marquess of Dorset,
who was in hiding, sends word
**[16:51] ---**
that the boys' death has
sparked uprisings far and wide.
**[16:56] ---**
What of Richmond?
**[16:58] ---**
He sailed from Brittany leading troops,
**[17:01] ---**
and his mother has obtained Queen
Elizabeth's consent to that matter.
**[17:06] ---**
And Stanley?
**[17:08] ---**
Naturally, he'll join his wife and son.
**[17:11] ---**
He *is* our intermediary.
**[17:15] ---**
My father was a Lancastrian.
**[17:18] ---**
And so you follow suit!
**[17:20] ---**
My blood and title are both
worthless to me now.
**[17:25] ---**
I want only one thing.
**[17:28] ---**
Only you, Richard.
**[17:31] ---**
Your Majesty honors me!
**[17:34] ---**
Lend me your strength
to build a new England.
**[17:38] ---**
Nothing would give us
northerners more pleasure.
**[17:43] ---**
I pledge that my soul shall
always be with Your Majesty.
**[17:48] ---**
Do I go to the forest where he waits,
**[17:50] ---**
or do I face down rebellion as a king?
**[17:53] ---**
The appointed day is almost upon us.
**[17:56] ---**
Hey, everybody!
**[17:57] ---**
His Majesty was just here!
**[18:00] ---**
Our king!
**[18:02] ---**
Must I choose?
**[18:05] ---**
You must know better than
anyone how I longed for that.
**[18:10] ---**
Mother?
**[18:11] ---**
What's wrong?!
**[18:17] ---**
Perhaps I've overexerted myself.
**[18:20] ---**
It's my turn to fall ill.
**[18:23] ---**
I've burdened you.
**[18:26] ---**
Because of my indecision...
**[18:29] ---**
It's not your fault.
**[18:31] ---**
In fact, I feel better in York.
**[18:35] ---**
Part of me always wondered
**[18:40] ---**
if choosing you was a mistake.
**[18:44] ---**
Was it right for you to become
king and for me to support you?
**[18:50] ---**
But when I saw the people bless you,
**[18:53] ---**
it struck me that this is a new beginning.
**[18:57] ---**
When you spoke of England's future,
you looked like your father in profile.
**[19:03] ---**
You were noble and beautiful.
**[19:06] ---**
Anne.
**[19:08] ---**
I'll get well soon.
**[19:11] ---**
Edward will have his
knighting ceremony soon.
**[19:17] ---**
Edward, rise as a knight.
**[19:21] ---**
Be a guardian to all
the just and the weak.
**[19:26] ---**
Yes, Your Majesty!
**[19:33] ---**
Father!
**[19:41] ---**
Are you well?
**[19:43] ---**
I don't want that boy's childhood
to be sorrowful, like ours was.
**[19:50] ---**
Let's make a land for him, together.
**[19:54] ---**
A beautiful kingdom.
**[19:57] ---**
Amid betrayal after betrayal,
they chose me.
**[20:01] ---**
Both Anne and Buckingham.
**[20:04] ---**
I can't lose one of them.
**[20:07] ---**
I can't make that choice.
**[20:10] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[20:11] ---**
Catesby.
**[20:13] ---**
What's my schedule today?
**[20:15] ---**
Inspecting an abbey?
**[20:17] ---**
Your Majesty! King Richard!
**[20:22] ---**
Command me. The day is nearly here.
**[20:25] ---**
Will you gather troops?
**[20:27] ---**
Or go to the forest?
**[20:37] ---**
You think I could?
**[20:39] ---**
What would become of Anne
and Edward with me gone?
**[20:43] ---**
What of the people who believed in me?
**[20:47] ---**
I merely obey your wishes.
**[20:52] ---**
My wishes?
**[20:59] ---**
I'll...
**[21:01] ---**
I'll speak to Buckingham once more!
**[21:05] ---**
That's right. There are other ways.
**[21:07] ---**
No one yet knows of his rebellion.
**[21:09] ---**
There's still hope for--
**[21:11] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[21:13] ---**
Urgent news! Kent is in revolt!
**[21:18] ---**
Our forces in Kent have risen?
**[21:20] ---**
I gave no order!
**[21:22] ---**
The king must know our plans now.
**[21:25] ---**
It's a little premature,
but we must march.
**[21:28] ---**
Come, Your Grace, signal the advance!
**[21:32] ---**
What's so shocking about that?
**[21:34] ---**
Kent is always rebellious.
**[21:37] ---**
His Grace, the Duke of
Buckingham is behind it!
**[21:39] ---**
This is treason!
**[21:40] ---**
Yes! He's turned on us!
**[21:42] ---**
Your Majesty! Your orders?!
**[21:44] ---**
We must act at once!

**[00:00] ---**
--Your Majesty!
--Your Majesty!
**[00:01] ---**
Your Majesty, punish the rebels
with force of arms!
**[00:05] ---**
Calm down! Are you certain that the
Duke of Buckingham leads the rebels?
**[00:09] ---**
We can't afford mistakes!
**[00:11] ---**
The rebels have proclaimed it,
and the duke hasn't denied it!
**[00:15] ---**
Your Majesty, Buckingham has declared
the Earl of Richmond his new king!
**[00:19] ---**
Richmond? Does he even
have a claim to the throne?
**[00:24] ---**
He comes of the Lancastrian royal line.
**[00:27] ---**
A new king?
**[00:30] ---**
But he... He was *my* kingmaker.
**[00:35] ---**
King Richard, if His Grace truly
has joined the Lancastrians,
**[00:39] ---**
the boys in the Tower...
**[00:41] ---**
If the Lancastrian Richmond really
means to seize the crown,
**[00:48] ---**
then the next briar in his path will be...
**[00:52] ---**
He's had...
**[00:54] ---**
He's had more than enough time
to give me his answer.
**[00:58] ---**
If Richard can't cut through the briars,
then there's only one path.
**[01:03] ---**
Like I did then,
I'll take it upon myself to...
**[01:08] ---**
If I weren't king, I might have
run to you immediately.
**[01:15] ---**
I might have given up
everything without a thought.
**[01:20] ---**
But if I release my grip now...
**[01:26] ---**
--Your Majesty!
--Your Majesty!
**[01:30] ---**
Call soldiers!
**[01:33] ---**
Assemble our finest troops at once!
**[01:39] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:41] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:44] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:50] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:36] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[03:37] ---**
I am the king.
**[03:40] ---**
Back then, I could have
thrown it all away.
**[03:44] ---**
But now...
**[03:46] ---**
Sooner or later,
God will pass judgment on me
**[03:50] ---**
for forsaking my oath of love and trust.
**[03:56] ---**
Are you truly certain about this?
**[04:00] ---**
Was there any other way?
**[04:08] ---**
Are you saying that I should
never have become king?
**[04:12] ---**
If I had never lain with him...
**[04:16] ---**
If I weren't a demon child...
**[04:20] ---**
King Richard.
**[04:22] ---**
Pondering what-ifs does no good.
**[04:25] ---**
Isn't that right, Henry?
**[04:29] ---**
I was able to grasp the light
because I had you with me.
**[04:33] ---**
I seized my desire with these hands.
**[04:37] ---**
So, I will never allow this body
to rule my soul again.
**[04:44] ---**
Catesby, go to London and fetch Jane.
**[04:49] ---**
As fast as you can.
**[04:56] ---**
Northumberland,
**[04:57] ---**
I'm glad you came.
**[04:59] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[05:02] ---**
I... I'm a knight too! I'll fight!
**[05:06] ---**
Edward.
**[05:08] ---**
I'll help you, Father.
**[05:16] ---**
Going to war means killing others,
**[05:20] ---**
or sometimes dying before
you get a chance to fight.
**[05:24] ---**
Battle is pointless and brutal.
**[05:27] ---**
Honor demands stifling your feelings
to fight in the reek of mud and blood.
**[05:33] ---**
Can you do that?
**[05:37] ---**
I cannot take him into battle.
**[05:41] ---**
Not this kind child.
**[05:44] ---**
Father,
**[05:46] ---**
this seems so painful for you.
**[05:48] ---**
So... So, I'll join you!
**[05:54] ---**
The king must fight.
**[05:57] ---**
Even against friends and family
when they turn on him.
**[06:15] ---**
Richard, I don't know what passed between
you and the Duke of Buckingham,
**[06:21] ---**
but I believe in you.
**[06:24] ---**
Both as a father and as a king.
**[06:27] ---**
We shall march southwest
and strike the main rebel force!
**[06:32] ---**
Advance with all haste!
**[06:35] ---**
Edward,
**[06:37] ---**
keep Anne safe for me.
**[06:43] ---**
Your Excellency, proceed as we planned.
**[06:46] ---**
Days of rain have seriously delayed us.
**[06:50] ---**
Now that we can't hope
to reach London ahead of him,
**[06:55] ---**
we'll have to take that route.
**[06:58] ---**
Richard,
**[06:59] ---**
I'll march to the place
where we were to meet.
**[07:03] ---**
Your Majesty, our scouts report that
Buckingham has already left his castle,
**[07:08] ---**
but his destination remains unknown.
**[07:11] ---**
Still, he can't march
quickly in this rain.
**[07:16] ---**
The forest.
**[07:17] ---**
True. He could enter the forest of Dean
and ford the river to reach London.
**[07:23] ---**
I thought we had already
parted ways for good,
**[07:27] ---**
and yet...
**[07:29] ---**
Give the order to our whole force!
**[07:32] ---**
To the forest of Dean!
**[07:35] ---**
I know where my other half will go.
**[07:39] ---**
He's waiting for me in that forest.
**[07:45] ---**
If we cut through the woods
and ford the river, London is ours!
**[07:50] ---**
I don't care if I fall to earth or my good
name is dragged through the mud.
**[07:55] ---**
I will end our kingdom
with my own two hands.
**[07:59] ---**
Where are you, Buckingham?
**[08:02] ---**
Once we meet, it will all be over.
**[08:05] ---**
And yet...
**[08:07] ---**
Our scouts bring word!
Buckingham's army is in these woods!
**[08:12] ---**
My frozen blood flows backwards.
**[08:16] ---**
It cries out for that heat.
**[08:18] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[08:20] ---**
Your heat that burned away my curse.
**[08:23] ---**
Not even merciless
arrows of rain can quell it.
**[08:27] ---**
My soul burns with longing.
**[08:30] ---**
Even if it brings everything to an end.
**[08:42] ---**
Half of my divided self
wails with desire for you.
**[08:52] ---**
Buckingham, I cannot allow
you to reach London!
**[08:56] ---**
Is that your answer?
**[09:00] ---**
If so...
**[09:07] ---**
I must slay Richard III here and now.
**[09:11] ---**
Your Majesty! Leave Buckingham to--
**[09:13] ---**
Stay back!
I'll see to this personally!
**[09:16] ---**
Come, Richard!
**[09:22] ---**
Buckingham!
**[09:23] ---**
You can't run forever!
**[09:27] ---**
Buckingham!
**[09:30] ---**
Raise your sword.
**[09:32] ---**
You mean to kill me, don't you?
**[09:35] ---**
In that moment when your burning
golden eyes reflect only me...
**[09:45] ---**
...supreme bliss lights my soul ablaze.
**[10:25] ---**
I've never dreamed of killing you.
**[10:29] ---**
--Then why--
--I want to kill...
**[10:33] ---**
...King Richard III!
**[10:45] ---**
Richard, it's not too late.
**[10:48] ---**
Richard III could vanish here,
in the midst of battle.
**[10:52] ---**
A little evidence left behind
would convince everyone
**[10:56] ---**
that King Richard and
the Duke of Buckingham
**[10:59] ---**
perished in the floodwaters,
still locked in combat.
**[11:04] ---**
Is that why you led me
away from the troops?
**[11:07] ---**
We'll go abroad and forsake our names.
**[11:10] ---**
I'll stay at your side, clearing briars
from your path as long as I live.
**[11:15] ---**
Even the loyalty to your father
that binds you now.
**[11:20] ---**
Loyalty to my father?
**[11:22] ---**
Yes.
**[11:24] ---**
Your longing for the crown must have
its roots in your father's ambition.
**[11:31] ---**
Was that truly your own wish?
**[11:36] ---**
It's true that I sometimes wondered
if my light lay elsewhere.
**[11:43] ---**
But I only sought such salvation
because I had lost hope.
**[11:49] ---**
Buckingham,
**[11:50] ---**
you opened my eyes to the truth.
**[11:57] ---**
Now that the light is mine, I know.
**[12:02] ---**
My father's spirit is no briar.
**[12:05] ---**
His wish, memory,
and suffering are all a part of me.
**[12:14] ---**
Those are the thorns I mean.
**[12:17] ---**
So are Anne, Edward, and all the rest.
**[12:20] ---**
England, and even you.
**[12:23] ---**
That's why...
**[12:26] ---**
...I can't go with you.
**[12:30] ---**
I have only one wish now!
**[12:33] ---**
Flee, Henry!
**[12:36] ---**
Flee in the boat I meant to take with you?
**[12:40] ---**
Flee to a world without you?
**[12:44] ---**
What would such a world be worth?
**[12:48] ---**
It's the best we can do now.
**[12:52] ---**
If we live, we have a future.
**[12:54] ---**
No matter where you go,
I promise to find you and follow.
**[12:59] ---**
Until I do,
**[13:00] ---**
I'll think of this ring as you.
**[13:10] ---**
Not a mere ring.
**[13:12] ---**
If only I could sear
this kiss into your hand!
**[13:16] ---**
A mark to remind you
**[13:19] ---**
of these lips, which will always
call your name with love.
**[13:39] ---**
Say no more, but swear you'll write to me.
**[13:46] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[13:49] ---**
Take this ring. It bears the royal seal.
**[13:52] ---**
You'll find it useful in a tight spot.
**[13:54] ---**
Go!
**[14:01] ---**
Richard.
**[14:08] ---**
Your Majesty!
The river has burst its banks!
**[14:11] ---**
Fall back at once!
**[14:12] ---**
The flood has scattered our foes.
**[14:15] ---**
They won't be able to run far.
**[14:19] ---**
It's fading.
**[14:21] ---**
The cruel rain is stealing
the last vestige of warmth,
**[14:26] ---**
as though it had all been an
illusion from the very beginning.
**[14:37] ---**
Your Grace!
**[14:37] ---**
You're unhurt!
**[14:39] ---**
Let us retreat to a friendly manor
**[14:41] ---**
and wait for the Earl of
Richmond's reinforcements!
**[14:44] ---**
I'll fetch you a horse!
**[14:48] ---**
Richmond won't come.
**[14:52] ---**
A storm is delaying his forces.
**[14:55] ---**
Those soldiers might
betray you if they knew.
**[14:59] ---**
I wouldn't mind if they did.
**[15:04] ---**
You called me a part of you.
**[15:09] ---**
But to me, Richard, you are everything.
**[15:18] ---**
Tyrrell, take this.
**[15:23] ---**
I'll have no more need of it.
**[15:27] ---**
I have one last duty to fulfill.
**[15:45] ---**
I hear that His Majesty is in residence.
**[15:48] ---**
Why, Sir Catesby!
**[15:50] ---**
Inform the king that
I've returned from London.
**[15:53] ---**
Make way!
**[15:54] ---**
Hey, isn't that...?
**[15:59] ---**
Buckingham?!
**[16:04] ---**
How?
**[16:05] ---**
His Grace seems quite resigned.
**[16:08] ---**
I'm told that his comrades
sold him for a reward.
**[16:14] ---**
It can't be. He should have
been able to escape.
**[16:17] ---**
So, why is he...?
**[16:19] ---**
Behead the traitors who gave him up.
**[16:22] ---**
The rebel Buckingham deserved no better!
**[16:25] ---**
Death is the only punishment for treason!
**[16:29] ---**
That's right.
**[16:31] ---**
I've slaughtered countless
foes before now.
**[16:36] ---**
It's only natural that he
would be no exception.
**[16:43] ---**
Why, Henry?
**[16:45] ---**
Why did you come back?
**[16:49] ---**
Is this the ending King Richard wanted?!
**[16:52] ---**
Continue to protect Richard
as you always have.
**[16:56] ---**
I have another role.
**[16:58] ---**
That's all.
**[16:59] ---**
Your "role" is to betray him
and be executed?
**[17:05] ---**
I wanted to obtain something at any cost.
**[17:09] ---**
Ever since childhood.
**[17:11] ---**
The two of us finally seized it.
**[17:14] ---**
Because of that, I realized that we
had been looking at different lights.
**[17:20] ---**
I shouldn't have to tell you that I take
what I want by any means necessary.
**[17:26] ---**
You drew out his secret desires
**[17:31] ---**
and cruelly led him down
a path of wickedness.
**[17:35] ---**
Your sins are beyond forgiveness!
**[17:38] ---**
True.
**[17:39] ---**
And I won't change.
**[17:42] ---**
As long as I live, I'll long to possess
Richard completely. I can't help it.
**[17:47] ---**
If you realize that,
you could live on and atone!
**[17:50] ---**
Don't play the saint!
**[17:52] ---**
You would commit any heinous
crime for his sake as well.
**[17:56] ---**
I know that I would kill
Richard if left unchecked!
**[18:03] ---**
Even so, I still believe
that you should not die.
**[18:09] ---**
If you imagine that I mean
to scar Richard with my death,
**[18:17] ---**
you're mistaken.
**[18:19] ---**
My role is to clear the briars
from Richard's path.
**[18:26] ---**
Even if I turn out to be one of them.
**[18:31] ---**
I doubt that I'll ever be able to
agree with your way of thinking.
**[18:37] ---**
Does Your Grace have any last requests?
**[18:41] ---**
Execute me soon.
**[18:44] ---**
A long prison stay will
leave me dingy and haggard.
**[18:49] ---**
I want to look my best for Richard.
**[18:53] ---**
I'll inform him.
**[18:55] ---**
Wait. Just one more thing.
**[18:58] ---**
Enough. Say no more.
**[19:01] ---**
--But--
--I don't want to hear any more!
**[19:03] ---**
It's his final wish.
**[19:06] ---**
He wants to see you one final time!
**[19:11] ---**
Meeting him will blunt my resolve.
**[19:15] ---**
Incompatible desires threaten
to tear my soul apart.
**[19:21] ---**
King Richard.
**[19:23] ---**
Where is she?
**[19:25] ---**
You brought Jane, didn't you?
**[19:28] ---**
Your Majesty summoned me?
**[19:30] ---**
I've brought what you desire.
**[19:33] ---**
Catesby, leave us.
**[19:37] ---**
A drink of that will end it?
**[19:41] ---**
I... I only wanted... to be king.
**[19:50] ---**
No one's life is without regret.
**[19:56] ---**
The date of Your Grace's
execution has been set.
**[20:00] ---**
Tomorrow.
**[20:02] ---**
Won't Richard come to see me?
**[20:06] ---**
Tomorrow is All Souls' Day.
**[20:08] ---**
We may pray for anyone's soul then.
**[20:12] ---**
For friends, for foes,
and even for despicable traitors.
**[20:19] ---**
Prayers? What could be less fitting
**[20:25] ---**
for demons like us?
**[20:28] ---**
No. You're...
**[20:30] ---**
You're no demon!
**[20:33] ---**
The only demon was me!
**[20:36] ---**
God, if you exist, I'll spend
my last hours in prayer.
**[20:42] ---**
Please, do not punish Richard.
**[20:46] ---**
Your Grace, the Duke of Buckingham!
**[20:48] ---**
Marriage? It's absurd.
**[20:51] ---**
They were fighting to
the death not long ago.
**[20:53] ---**
Now they make a show of merriment.
**[20:56] ---**
This marriage is the end of my life.
**[21:00] ---**
Living like a pet dog, with no will
of my own, is no better than death.
**[21:10] ---**
Training at a time like this?
**[21:12] ---**
Some noble's child?
**[21:14] ---**
More importantly, are they a boy?
**[21:21] ---**
Ow.
**[21:23] ---**
Are you suicidal?!
**[21:25] ---**
Duke Richard! The feast is beginning!
**[21:28] ---**
I'll be there soon!
**[21:29] ---**
H-Hey...
**[21:31] ---**
Use your head more, damn brat.
**[21:34] ---**
Don't die even if you are weak.
**[21:42] ---**
Shameless wretch!
**[21:43] ---**
Traitor!
**[21:45] ---**
Traitor!
**[21:46] ---**
I don't believe in God or fate.
**[21:51] ---**
I have no regrets.
**[21:54] ---**
I was born in this world
and got to meet you.
**[22:00] ---**
I have nothing to say. Do it.
**[22:06] ---**
But if I had one final wish...
**[22:14] ---**
...it would be...
**[22:17] ---**
It would be to see you... once more.
**[22:39] ---**
Henry.
**[22:43] ---**
Wait for me in hell.
**[22:49] ---**
I swear that we'll meet again.
**[23:08] ---**
This blood seals the pact
**[23:13] ---**
that will reunite us.

**[00:03] ---**
My beloved fatherland, I have returned!
**[00:08] ---**
How I've longed to see you, Lord Richmond!
**[00:11] ---**
No,
**[00:12] ---**
my king!
**[00:15] ---**
Stanley.
**[00:16] ---**
Where is your stepson Richmond?
**[00:21] ---**
I will mete out death to traitors,
**[00:25] ---**
be they great lords, close relatives,
**[00:28] ---**
or intimate friends.
**[00:29] ---**
It matters not how well I loved them.
**[00:32] ---**
I make no exceptions.
**[00:37] ---**
My lords!
**[00:38] ---**
We must fortify the crown so that
no one will ever again foment rebellion!
**[00:43] ---**
I shall bolster the royal forces
**[00:46] ---**
and adjudicate rights and
arms with greater severity!
**[00:50] ---**
I will not have charlatans
counterfeiting lineage
**[00:53] ---**
and armorial bearings to lay
false claim to royal blood!
**[01:00] ---**
There must be no exceptions.
**[01:03] ---**
I slew even my other half
with my own hands.
**[01:07] ---**
Richard,
**[01:09] ---**
would you make a few moments for me?
**[01:18] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[01:20] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[01:23] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[01:29] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[03:09] ---**
Don't go deep into the forest,
and don't make a fuss.
**[03:12] ---**
I won't.
**[03:15] ---**
It's been so long
**[03:16] ---**
since you and I visited
the woods like this.
**[03:19] ---**
Somehow, it all seems like a dream.
**[03:24] ---**
The rain has long since ceased,
**[03:27] ---**
yet I search wherever I go.
**[03:31] ---**
It's all a bad dream.
**[03:34] ---**
Anne?
**[03:36] ---**
It's not just the battlefield,
or the councils or feasts.
**[03:40] ---**
A royal palace isn't right for Edward.
**[03:43] ---**
What's come over you?
**[03:45] ---**
Please, Richard.
**[03:47] ---**
Disinherit him.
**[03:50] ---**
What do you--
**[03:52] ---**
I haven't long to live.
**[03:56] ---**
I had an attack of
tuberculosis as a child.
**[03:59] ---**
Now I have it again.
**[04:01] ---**
You recovered once before.
**[04:03] ---**
I know my own body better than--
**[04:07] ---**
Anne!
**[04:09] ---**
I thought that I'd be able to shape
this kingdom alongside you.
**[04:13] ---**
I thought that I'd be able
to guard Edward's future.
**[04:18] ---**
Even if I die, the threats
to his life will continue.
**[04:22] ---**
As long as he's a king's son, he's doomed
to a life of blood and conspiracy.
**[04:27] ---**
You made certain of that!
**[04:29] ---**
Didn't you, Richard?
**[04:32] ---**
Why?
**[04:33] ---**
Set Edward free
**[04:35] ---**
from the curse of this
dreadful circlet of light.
**[04:39] ---**
Why is God so insatiable?
**[04:42] ---**
Why does He keep taking from me?
**[04:46] ---**
My whole body is on the verge of freezing.
**[04:49] ---**
Next time, make a true heir
with someone you can truly love.
**[04:55] ---**
No! This is wrong!
**[04:56] ---**
This isn't the place!
**[04:58] ---**
The king's bed can't be this cold.
**[05:03] ---**
Where?
**[05:07] ---**
Where is he?
**[05:14] ---**
Why isn't he here?
**[05:15] ---**
How can he not be here?!
**[05:18] ---**
Your Majesty?
**[05:22] ---**
He's...
**[05:24] ---**
He's gone!
**[05:27] ---**
Yet I can't sleep without him.
**[05:29] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[05:31] ---**
Call me "Richard."
**[05:33] ---**
Like he did.
**[05:36] ---**
I want... that heat.
**[05:39] ---**
K-King Richard.
**[05:41] ---**
Just close your eyes.
Imagine the woman you fancy.
**[05:45] ---**
King Richard!
**[05:48] ---**
We can't.
**[05:50] ---**
Heat of the flesh can't warm your soul.
**[05:55] ---**
I know.
**[05:56] ---**
No one knows that better than me.
**[06:00] ---**
I want to see him.
**[06:02] ---**
But he's gone.
**[06:04] ---**
Because I loved him.
**[06:07] ---**
All I love is vanishing.
**[06:09] ---**
Everything I care for will be gone.
**[06:13] ---**
I sinned to obtain my desire.
**[06:17] ---**
Is all this the wages of sin?
**[06:22] ---**
King Richard,
**[06:24] ---**
I'll stay with you to the last.
**[06:33] ---**
My sovereign, I have
something to show you.
**[06:37] ---**
And that is?
**[06:38] ---**
This is the purpose that the Duke
of Buckingham entrusted to me.
**[06:45] ---**
Lord Oxford,
**[06:47] ---**
our army is safe in the hands
of a veteran such as yourself.
**[06:52] ---**
But we are not yet heroes.
**[06:56] ---**
Richard can claim to be
the legitimate king.
**[07:00] ---**
And what of our forces?
**[07:02] ---**
Foreigners!
**[07:03] ---**
Traitors!
**[07:05] ---**
Richmond, whose claim to the
throne is, frankly, rather dubious.
**[07:09] ---**
It's too late for such worries.
**[07:11] ---**
What do you think we
need to make us heroes?
**[07:16] ---**
Power?
**[07:17] ---**
Victory?
**[07:18] ---**
And a story.
**[07:23] ---**
Come one, come all!
**[07:25] ---**
The show's about to start!
**[07:28] ---**
Actors?
**[07:29] ---**
Yes. Heroism requires one thing above all.
**[07:34] ---**
--Namely...
--Here, we shall reenact the hidden
truth of the royal palace!
**[07:36] ---**
--Here, we shall reenact the hidden
truth of the royal palace!
**[07:39] ---**
Its cursed reality!
**[07:41] ---**
A consummate...
**[07:42] ---**
The wicked tale of King Richard III!
**[07:49] ---**
...villain!
**[07:54] ---**
A nightingale?
**[07:56] ---**
Did it wander here out of season?
**[08:00] ---**
What will burial benefit a soulless brute?
**[08:04] ---**
Only human beings may enter
the Kingdom of Heaven.
**[08:09] ---**
Your Majesty, I bear fresh tidings!
**[08:12] ---**
The Earl of Richmond's army
has come ashore in Wales!
**[08:16] ---**
So, Richmond has come at last.
**[08:19] ---**
The Earl of Oxford and several
other lords have joined his cause.
**[08:24] ---**
Shall I summon the council?
**[08:26] ---**
Deliberation is pointless.
**[08:28] ---**
We have no choice but to give battle!
**[08:32] ---**
Have you heard?
Sympathizers are flocking to his banner.
**[08:36] ---**
The king might fall if nothing is done.
**[08:40] ---**
Lord Stanley, if you go southwest,
we would be happy to--
**[08:45] ---**
My lords!
**[08:46] ---**
I take it you're so well prepared
for war that you have time for gossip?
**[08:51] ---**
N-Not quite. I must depart
to ready my forces!
**[08:55] ---**
And I must levy troops.
**[08:58] ---**
Ungrateful fair-weather friends.
**[09:01] ---**
Still, considering this
string of rebellions...
**[09:04] ---**
How can you join in such talk?!
**[09:07] ---**
I can't help feeling uneasy.
**[09:09] ---**
Ever since the war with Buckingham,
**[09:12] ---**
the king has been a shell of himself.
**[09:16] ---**
My health hasn't returned.
**[09:18] ---**
Is that medicine to blame? Or is it...
**[09:22] ---**
King Richard!
**[09:23] ---**
King Richard!
**[09:24] ---**
Richard.
**[09:26] ---**
Richard!
**[09:29] ---**
They're all looking for
a chance to turn on you.
**[09:33] ---**
Incessant rebellions. A dying queen.
**[09:36] ---**
If you lose your precious heir as well,
**[09:39] ---**
you'll lose everything.
**[09:42] ---**
Even the crown you killed
your other half to keep.
**[09:49] ---**
How is Her Majesty?
**[09:51] ---**
She's stable now,
**[09:53] ---**
but to be honest, the end
could come at any time.
**[09:56] ---**
And the Prince of Wales shows
symptoms of the same disease.
**[10:07] ---**
If you let that boy go,
you have no future.
**[10:11] ---**
I'm well aware of that.
**[10:15] ---**
Joan, you've made just one error.
**[10:19] ---**
What I sought to protect
at any cost was...
**[10:25] ---**
Anne?!
**[10:26] ---**
Mother?! Where are you going?!
**[10:29] ---**
That place is too haunted by death!
**[10:33] ---**
This is my only chance to flee!
**[10:35] ---**
Please wait!
**[10:36] ---**
Mother!
**[10:38] ---**
Everyone will worry. Let's turn back.
**[10:41] ---**
Listen, Edward.
**[10:43] ---**
I'm going... to die soon.
**[10:46] ---**
D-Die?
**[10:48] ---**
When I'm gone, the palace will be
a den of those who wish you dead.
**[10:53] ---**
Especially if Richard loses his war.
**[10:57] ---**
The king's son will be executed, or else
imprisoned for the rest of his days.
**[11:02] ---**
Before that happens--
**[11:03] ---**
Anne! Wait!
**[11:04] ---**
Father.
**[11:08] ---**
No!
**[11:10] ---**
No!
**[11:11] ---**
I can't stay here!
**[11:13] ---**
This place--that palace--
isn't what I hoped for!
**[11:18] ---**
Anne.
**[11:19] ---**
I want to go back.
**[11:20] ---**
Back to the way I was
before I met you that day!
**[11:24] ---**
Back to who I was
before my life was stolen!
**[11:27] ---**
Wait, Anne!
**[11:29] ---**
I wasn't even allowed to dream.
**[11:32] ---**
A woman's duty
**[11:34] ---**
is merely to love whoever
is placed before her.
**[11:41] ---**
Anne...
**[11:43] ---**
Let go.
**[11:46] ---**
Listen, Richard.
**[11:47] ---**
You are... my curse.
**[11:51] ---**
And not because I loved you.
**[11:54] ---**
I wasn't bound because I loved you,
**[11:57] ---**
but because I wanted you to love me.
**[11:59] ---**
All this time,
you wouldn't even fetter me.
**[12:03] ---**
I bound myself with briars.
**[12:08] ---**
Her every wish for love
**[12:11] ---**
nurtured briars to tie her down.
**[12:19] ---**
You wanted to be loved.
**[12:22] ---**
Richard.
**[12:23] ---**
Anne, I'm sorry.
**[12:27] ---**
Here and now,
**[12:29] ---**
let's cut through those briars together.
**[12:35] ---**
I chose a bloody path of my own free will.
**[12:40] ---**
You needn't burden yourself with my fate.
**[12:50] ---**
Edward,
**[12:52] ---**
I love you.
**[12:55] ---**
Even if it costs me everything.
**[12:59] ---**
Once he's clear of London,
announce that the Prince of Wales is dead.
**[13:05] ---**
I want to hold his
"funeral" before the war.
**[13:09] ---**
Is this... a letter from Anne?
**[13:12] ---**
Why is the seal unbroken?
**[13:29] ---**
Was that really for the best?
**[13:31] ---**
The death of an heir
is a fatal blow to a king.
**[13:34] ---**
If your wife were to pass as well...
**[13:37] ---**
Silence!
**[13:38] ---**
Anne *will* pull through.
**[13:41] ---**
You know she won't. Isn't that why
you want to grant her wish?
**[13:46] ---**
Now her wish is mine as well.
**[13:50] ---**
Give this to Edward for me.
**[13:54] ---**
It's a memento of his father.
**[13:57] ---**
Jane, take good care of Edward--
**[14:01] ---**
I mean, of that nameless boy.
**[14:06] ---**
Your Majesty! You mustn't enter!
**[14:08] ---**
If you catch the queen's illness--
**[14:11] ---**
Stand aside! Anne is my wife!
**[14:14] ---**
Richard.
**[14:16] ---**
Lie down, Anne. This isn't good for you.
**[14:21] ---**
We didn't lose that boy,
**[14:24] ---**
did we?
**[14:25] ---**
No, he gained a new life.
**[14:31] ---**
Thank you.
**[14:32] ---**
Anne!
**[14:34] ---**
Richard...
**[14:36] ---**
Now I can die peacefully.
**[14:39] ---**
Don't talk nonsense. You'll get well soon.
**[14:42] ---**
I'll host a feast to
celebrate your recovery.
**[14:45] ---**
I'll even have a new dress made for you.
**[14:48] ---**
You wear the dress.
I like how you look in one.
**[14:53] ---**
I'll grant your every desire.
**[14:57] ---**
No wish is beyond the king's power.
**[15:03] ---**
Your Majesty,
**[15:05] ---**
I am deeply grateful for
your boundless kindness.
**[15:10] ---**
You even provided my daughter
with this lovely dress.
**[15:13] ---**
It was all Anne's wish.
**[15:16] ---**
I had that dress made for her.
**[15:19] ---**
I'm sure she would be
pleased to see you wear it.
**[15:23] ---**
How do you expect me to look
Uncle Richard in the eye?
**[15:27] ---**
I'm engaged to his enemy!
**[15:30] ---**
But not wedded to him.
**[15:32] ---**
Queen Anne will soon be dead.
**[15:35] ---**
Thus, Richard desires your bloodline.
**[15:39] ---**
He wouldn't!
**[15:40] ---**
This is all for your happiness.
**[15:43] ---**
If you wish to return to the palace,
I will go with you.
**[15:47] ---**
After all,
**[15:49] ---**
you're my last ray of hope.
**[15:55] ---**
Uncle!
**[16:00] ---**
No matter how much ill people speak
of you, I won't believe them!
**[16:08] ---**
I pray that your life will be blessed
**[16:11] ---**
and that you live out your
full span of years in peace.
**[16:15] ---**
Edward was always concerned for you.
**[16:19] ---**
Richard,
**[16:20] ---**
perhaps you really did free us out
of the goodness of your heart.
**[16:25] ---**
But with that kind whim,
you dug your own grave!
**[16:32] ---**
My name is Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond!
**[16:35] ---**
I have come to reclaim England from you!
**[16:38] ---**
My brave and earnest gentlemen!
**[16:40] ---**
Please, lend Richmond your strength
to dethrone this demon king!
**[16:46] ---**
Down with Richard III!
**[16:49] ---**
Demon! Demon! Demon!
**[16:59] ---**
Dear Duke Richard,
**[17:02] ---**
Do you remember that day at the banquet?
**[17:05] ---**
I was truly glad that you asked
me to dance with you then.
**[17:11] ---**
It's strange. When I picture
you in my mind's eye,
**[17:15] ---**
I soar out of the darkness,
like a skylark at dawn.
**[17:20] ---**
How I would love to dance
with you again someday.
**[17:25] ---**
Until that day comes,
**[17:29] ---**
I pray for your happiness.
**[17:41] ---**
Brave soldiers of England!
**[17:44] ---**
The traitor Richmond now seeks
to usurp our rightful throne!
**[17:49] ---**
He devastates our land in
his march toward London!
**[17:53] ---**
But our foes are beaten curs
who once fled England in defeat!
**[17:58] ---**
A common thorn has more power to wound us!
**[18:01] ---**
We are the righteous
shield of our fatherland!
**[18:05] ---**
In the name of your king, to battle!
**[18:07] ---**
Advance!
**[18:09] ---**
Even if God watches over Richmond,
**[18:13] ---**
there are no more briars in my path.
**[18:16] ---**
There's nothing left to me.
**[18:19] ---**
What are you doing?!
**[18:21] ---**
--Make way!
--Impertinent wretch!
**[18:22] ---**
Do you know to whom you speak?!
**[18:25] ---**
I am the mother of your king!
**[18:30] ---**
Have you come to pray
for victory in battle?
**[18:33] ---**
I have indeed.
**[18:35] ---**
For Richmond's victory.
**[18:37] ---**
Then kindly stand aside, Mother.
**[18:40] ---**
Beat the marching drums!
**[18:41] ---**
Richard.
**[18:43] ---**
The day you were born...
**[18:46] ---**
A terrible storm laid trees low.
**[18:49] ---**
Owls screeched.
Crows croaked in the night!
**[18:53] ---**
Your mother suffered
abnormal birthing pains!
**[18:57] ---**
And after all that, her child was...
**[19:01] ---**
...a blood-soaked demon
that defied the will of God!
**[19:09] ---**
So, this voice that always tormented me
**[19:12] ---**
was yours all along.
**[19:16] ---**
Richard, you are unfit to be king.
**[19:20] ---**
I should have been
truthful before it came to this.
**[19:23] ---**
I should have revealed our secret,
which I'd hoped to take to my grave.
**[19:29] ---**
Your father
**[19:31] ---**
was not Richard Plantagenet, Duke of York.
**[19:39] ---**
I have no more time
to waste on your ravings.
**[19:43] ---**
Ten months and ten days before your birth,
**[19:46] ---**
during our days of strife with Lancaster,
**[19:49] ---**
my husband Richard was
overcome by rage and desperation.
**[19:53] ---**
Between that pressure and his lust
for the crown, he had no place for me.
**[19:58] ---**
So I...
**[19:59] ---**
I...
**[20:01] ---**
You look nothing like
your father or brothers.
**[20:04] ---**
Everything about you is proof of my deed!
**[20:10] ---**
True, I don't resemble Father.
**[20:13] ---**
But I'm just like you, Mother!
**[20:18] ---**
We clung to what we could never have
**[20:21] ---**
and punished ourselves to
escape our senseless suffering.
**[20:25] ---**
We called ourselves sinners and demons.
**[20:28] ---**
We could never have endured it otherwise!
**[20:31] ---**
No!
**[20:32] ---**
Mother,
**[20:34] ---**
you are no sinner.
**[20:37] ---**
You're a victim.
**[20:41] ---**
No! I am no victim!
**[20:45] ---**
I sinned!
**[20:47] ---**
Your birth was my punishment!
**[20:50] ---**
Although my husband always loved me,
**[20:53] ---**
he... he...
**[20:56] ---**
He refused to love my darkness.
**[21:00] ---**
How slender and frail she is.
**[21:04] ---**
She's small, like I am.
**[21:07] ---**
Have I been under this
person's sway all this time?
**[21:12] ---**
Mother, please pray.
**[21:16] ---**
Pray for Richmond's triumph
**[21:18] ---**
and my death.
**[21:20] ---**
I hope that will be a comfort to you.
**[21:25] ---**
For all my hatred,
**[21:27] ---**
I...
**[21:29] ---**
In truth, I always...
**[21:38] ---**
Mother...
**[21:40] ---**
Goodbye.
**[21:43] ---**
Goodbye, my "curse."

**[00:06] ---**
Mother...
**[00:09] ---**
Goodbye.
**[00:11] ---**
Goodbye, my "curse."
**[00:24] ---**
It's your fault!
**[00:25] ---**
--Irredeemable!
--We know your sins!
**[00:28] ---**
What are you doing there?
**[00:37] ---**
You're...
**[00:40] ---**
I know you'll accept me.
**[00:43] ---**
You don't know anything.
**[00:48] ---**
And you're alone.
**[00:52] ---**
Richard, forgive me.
**[00:56] ---**
These aren't my memories, I'm certain.
**[01:00] ---**
They're fragments I've heard
**[01:03] ---**
from the tale of another Henry
who looked so much like me.
**[01:15] ---**
Where is the enemy now?
**[01:18] ---**
Reports place them in
the vicinity of Tamworth.
**[01:22] ---**
We'll fight on Bosworth field, then.
**[01:26] ---**
Inform the men.
**[01:28] ---**
There will be no food
or rest on the battlefield.
**[01:31] ---**
Let them enjoy their last suppers tonight.
**[01:36] ---**
He's so haggard.
**[01:39] ---**
Why does God demand so much of him?
**[01:44] ---**
You too, Catesby.
**[01:46] ---**
If you want something, name it.
**[01:49] ---**
No fine wine or gift could
fully repay your loyalty.
**[01:54] ---**
I wish only for Your Majesty's
health and peace of mind.
**[01:57] ---**
Speak your true desire!
**[01:59] ---**
Don't wish for my sake!
**[02:02] ---**
What would you do if I was gone?
**[02:06] ---**
What would you live for if
all this was no more?
**[02:33] ---**
I believed that only my
crown remained to me.
**[02:39] ---**
And yet...
**[02:41] ---**
Your father
**[02:43] ---**
was not Richard Plantagenet, Duke of York.
**[02:48] ---**
Did he know?
**[02:53] ---**
Did Father know all along?
**[03:05] ---**
If even my name and my blood
were all an illusion,
**[03:12] ---**
then what is the sense of this war?
**[03:28] ---**
Hey, where are you going?
**[03:34] ---**
Strange.
**[03:37] ---**
Something like this
**[03:39] ---**
happened before.
**[03:51] ---**
It's warm.
**[03:53] ---**
Far warmer than that empty bed.
**[04:01] ---**
I might as well just...
**[04:07] ---**
You think so too?
**[04:10] ---**
It feels good to sleep here.
**[04:15] ---**
It...
**[04:17] ---**
It can't be.
**[04:19] ---**
You're...
**[04:26] ---**
Have you come to kill me, James Tyrrell?!
**[04:31] ---**
That isn't my real name.
**[04:35] ---**
I have no name now.
**[04:38] ---**
No name, no past, no friends.
**[04:42] ---**
Nothing.
**[04:46] ---**
Nothing.
**[04:48] ---**
Even Buckingham is gone now.
He has no more need to kill me.
**[04:54] ---**
I truly have nothing left.
**[04:57] ---**
I believed that claiming the crown
would gain me paradise,
**[05:03] ---**
but that paradise was
home to myself alone.
**[05:08] ---**
I didn't mind that.
**[05:10] ---**
Solitude had been kind to me.
**[05:14] ---**
But now, I find it...
**[05:17] ---**
Richard,
**[05:18] ---**
if you want to flee,
I'll take you from here.
**[05:22] ---**
If you wish for salvation...
**[05:26] ---**
After all, you have nothing left.
**[05:32] ---**
Henry,
**[05:33] ---**
were you also afflicted by isolation
within your royal crown?
**[05:39] ---**
I've never wished to
see you more strongly.
**[05:42] ---**
The weight of the crown.
The coldness of the royal bed.
**[05:47] ---**
I have so many things
to talk with you about now.
**[05:51] ---**
But that day, at the end,
**[05:54] ---**
why were you on the battlefield?
**[05:59] ---**
You must have had the means to escape.
**[06:07] ---**
That rainy night you spent
with the Duke of Buckingham,
**[06:12] ---**
I learned what this emptiness
truly is for the first time.
**[06:17] ---**
I'm not here merely to perish.
**[06:20] ---**
To sustain my existence,
I want just one...
**[06:24] ---**
One ray of light.
**[06:25] ---**
Impossible.
**[06:26] ---**
To him, the crown was--
**[06:29] ---**
Light is not paradise.
**[06:31] ---**
You ought to know that too.
**[06:33] ---**
Light and briars are one and the same.
**[06:38] ---**
Even so,
**[06:40] ---**
you can't help seeking it.
**[06:47] ---**
Because to seek is the meaning of living.
**[06:50] ---**
Whitey, wait.
**[06:52] ---**
That isn't the way home.
**[06:55] ---**
Will you go with that boar?
**[06:58] ---**
I doubt it can survive long in the forest.
**[07:11] ---**
Yes, you'll go home.
**[07:15] ---**
You don't care if the world rejects you,
**[07:18] ---**
as long as that's where you want to be.
**[07:25] ---**
What will you do?
**[07:28] ---**
Where do you long to be?
**[07:31] ---**
I...
**[07:32] ---**
I wish to be...
**[07:36] ---**
...neither beneath a cold
canopy nor in a warm forest.
**[07:42] ---**
I gained everything and
became king with this body.
**[07:47] ---**
Not by blood or by name.
**[07:49] ---**
I wished for it.
**[07:54] ---**
*That* is my reason to fight.
**[08:01] ---**
Then, you'll return to the battlefield.
**[08:05] ---**
It's where the king belongs.
**[08:10] ---**
I have a request for you.
**[08:14] ---**
Would you be my light?
**[08:18] ---**
Your light?
**[08:22] ---**
We've both lost so many things.
**[08:30] ---**
I want you... to be my friend.
**[08:46] ---**
Yes, let's be friends.
**[08:50] ---**
Thank you, Richard.
**[09:01] ---**
Now, let us return.
**[09:04] ---**
Even if a sleepless battlefield awaits me.
**[09:15] ---**
As long as that's the place I sought.
**[09:21] ---**
You're my friend.
**[09:28] ---**
Now, I can have no regrets...
**[09:33] ---**
...when I kill you,
**[09:35] ---**
Richard.
**[09:44] ---**
York of the white rose.
**[09:46] ---**
Lancaster of the red rose.
**[09:49] ---**
These royal houses with roses for
their crests battled for the throne.
**[09:55] ---**
People call their strife
the "Wars of the Roses."
**[10:06] ---**
The world's in an uproar again.
**[10:09] ---**
Our livelihood's up and vanished.
**[10:11] ---**
Shall we look for the next James Tyrrell?
**[10:14] ---**
Forrest, Dighton,
**[10:17] ---**
I'll send you some news
as thanks for feeding me.
**[10:22] ---**
How many times have I
returned to war since childhood?
**[10:27] ---**
At first, I merely sought revenge.
And now...
**[10:33] ---**
Archers, front and center.
**[10:35] ---**
Howard, take command.
**[10:37] ---**
Stanley, Northumberland,
see to your own troops.
**[10:40] ---**
--At once!
--Certainly.
**[10:44] ---**
Where is Stanley?
**[10:47] ---**
Observing Richmond's army,
or so he claims.
**[10:50] ---**
Tell him to array his troops
by dawn tomorrow.
**[10:55] ---**
It appears my stepfather
still can't make up his mind.
**[11:00] ---**
Is this the time to be so easygoing?
**[11:02] ---**
I hear that the foe outnumbers us.
**[11:05] ---**
And most of those extra troops
are under my stepfather's command.
**[11:09] ---**
And what if that wasn't all?
What if most of our foes
**[11:13] ---**
sided with us?
**[11:18] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[11:19] ---**
Don't worry. It's nothing.
**[11:26] ---**
Lord Northumberland,
**[11:28] ---**
has it reached you too?
**[11:30] ---**
This letter was apparently sent to
the major leaders of the king's army.
**[11:38] ---**
Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond,
**[11:41] ---**
has formally married Elizabeth,
daughter of Edward IV.
**[11:46] ---**
These signatures are genuine.
**[11:48] ---**
In which case, Richmond is no longer
a mere Lancastrian usurper.
**[11:54] ---**
He will be a righteous hero,
shouldering the regrets of kings past.
**[12:09] ---**
Howard, thank you for your report.
**[12:12] ---**
The cowards only know underhanded tricks.
**[12:14] ---**
Tomorrow, we'll teach them
how to fight with swords.
**[12:22] ---**
Your Majesty.
**[12:24] ---**
Unsettling rumors were already
circulating before our march.
**[12:29] ---**
Your Majesty, please retreat.
**[12:33] ---**
Even if your throne is taken now,
**[12:35] ---**
you reclaim it once you rally
and regain your strength.
**[12:40] ---**
I won't get another chance.
This deadly illness worsens by the day.
**[12:47] ---**
I thought I was leaving my peaceful
palace for a bloody, dreadful battlefield.
**[12:54] ---**
But now that I'm here,
my heart is shockingly calm.
**[12:59] ---**
I'm certain now:
this is where the king belongs.
**[13:04] ---**
This is the place I sought.
**[13:08] ---**
Do you plan to die in battle?
**[13:17] ---**
You told me to name my desire.
**[13:22] ---**
I...
**[13:25] ---**
I only wished that you could
walk the path you desired.
**[13:32] ---**
Never once have I barred your way
for the sake of my own desires.
**[13:40] ---**
But if you'll hear one
selfish request at the end,
**[13:44] ---**
then please...
**[13:46] ---**
Please grant my wish.
**[13:50] ---**
King Richard, live!
**[13:54] ---**
Live for me!
**[14:09] ---**
Forgive me, Catesby.
**[14:21] ---**
Forgive me.
**[14:23] ---**
I'm frightened!
**[14:25] ---**
I dreamed of a horrible forest!
**[14:33] ---**
Please, have no more nightmares.
**[14:37] ---**
Never again.
**[14:55] ---**
My lord!
**[14:57] ---**
Yes?
**[14:58] ---**
Someone claims to have information for us.
**[15:07] ---**
Tell me.
**[15:09] ---**
How did you feel about this body of mine?
**[15:14] ---**
I've found you beautiful.
**[15:18] ---**
Ever since you were born.
**[15:28] ---**
I am the king.
**[15:30] ---**
I will not fight to lose.
**[15:41] ---**
Gentlemen! Richard III is a
bloody tyrant and a homicide!
**[15:46] ---**
One raised in blood,
and one in blood established!
**[15:50] ---**
He schemed to come by what he has and
slaughtered even his fellow schemers!
**[15:55] ---**
Since the moment of his birth,
**[15:58] ---**
that demon has ever been God's enemy!
**[16:04] ---**
Draw your swords now!
**[16:06] ---**
Bend your bows like full moons!
Spur your chargers into a sea of blood!
**[16:14] ---**
A crown...
**[16:15] ---**
...or an honorable death!
**[16:36] ---**
Your Majesty, our front line is faltering!
**[16:39] ---**
We still have Lords Stanley and
Northumberland's forces in reserve!
**[16:44] ---**
The enemy knows that too.
**[16:47] ---**
Oxford is a proven veteran.
Why would he waste his men like this?
**[16:53] ---**
Order Northumberland to advance.
**[17:00] ---**
I cannot join in a war without a future.
**[17:05] ---**
How could the Earl of
Northumberland betray us?
**[17:08] ---**
More traitors are sure to follow.
**[17:12] ---**
To think that I still had more to lose.
**[17:16] ---**
I can't blame them. Who would
choose to join a demon's fall to hell?
**[17:22] ---**
In which case...
**[17:25] ---**
I will go!
**[17:42] ---**
Your Majesty!
**[17:44] ---**
Fight! Don't give an inch!
**[17:46] ---**
Your king is here!
**[17:50] ---**
That's...
**[17:52] ---**
Richmond's main line!
**[17:54] ---**
Stanley's forces lie ahead!
**[17:56] ---**
If he went for reinforcements...
**[18:02] ---**
Those who would enter heaven, leave us.
**[18:05] ---**
But if you would follow me,
**[18:09] ---**
we go to hell together!
**[18:14] ---**
Follow the king!
**[18:26] ---**
Richmond!
**[18:44] ---**
A body double?!
**[18:48] ---**
A king hardly needs to fight personally.
**[18:53] ---**
Call me when the battle is over.
**[19:00] ---**
All troops, advance.
**[19:03] ---**
Our enemy is...
**[19:08] ---**
...the vile King Richard III!
**[19:14] ---**
My fate is sealed.
**[19:20] ---**
But...
**[19:26] ---**
I care not how loudly the world wails,
**[19:30] ---**
nor how firmly God denies me.
**[19:34] ---**
Again, and again...
**[19:39] ---**
...and again...
**[19:43] ---**
...I will reach for the light.
**[19:49] ---**
Won't someone come for me?
**[19:52] ---**
Everyone went away.
**[19:58] ---**
Richard, I'm right here.
**[20:05] ---**
I was always alone.
**[20:10] ---**
I am neither a man nor a woman.
**[20:14] ---**
I thought of myself as
the loathsome Joan of Arc.
**[20:21] ---**
That's right. You were me.
**[20:26] ---**
Me bound by my curse,
convinced that even to wish was a sin.
**[20:31] ---**
You feared demons,
sought solace in your wounds,
**[20:34] ---**
and despised yourself more than anyone.
**[20:39] ---**
The other me from back then.
**[20:46] ---**
Now, is it time for my cue?
**[20:50] ---**
If your information proves true,
I'll give you the title you desire,
**[20:56] ---**
my dear Tyrrell.
**[20:59] ---**
Did you slay Richard?
**[21:01] ---**
Well... He fell from his horse.
After that, I don't know.
**[21:04] ---**
And was his horse black?
**[21:07] ---**
Yes, sir. I think so.
**[21:10] ---**
That was a fake.
**[21:12] ---**
The real Richard is mounted...
**[21:19] ---**
...on a white steed.
**[21:30] ---**
Who are you?
**[21:34] ---**
I am you.
**[21:38] ---**
I love you,
**[21:40] ---**
Richard.
**[21:48] ---**
Richard.
**[21:50] ---**
Richard.
**[22:03] ---**
Richard, I...
**[22:08] ---**
I love you.
**[22:15] ---**
Fate turns and turns again.
**[22:22] ---**
No matter how many times I seize it...
**[22:29] ---**
No matter how many times I lose it...
**[22:35] ---**
I refuse to let you die!
**[22:38] ---**
Not even if you wish for it!
**[22:49] ---**
Very well.
**[22:51] ---**
When I wake,
**[22:54] ---**
I'll grant your wish.
**[23:17] ---**
But now...
**[23:21] ---**
Now, for just a short while,
**[23:25] ---**
let me sleep
**[23:29] ---**
in a beautiful dream.
