Las dos primos recuerdan momentos felices de su infancia, como el tiempo que pasaron juntas y la influencia de una estricta anciana en su educación.

    Thornton, un fabricante de textiles, se presenta ante la familia Hale. Él está buscando a la hija de Hale para salvaguardar su educación.

    A medida que crece la tensión entre los trabajadores que exigen mejores condiciones y los industriales que desean controlar la situación, Margaret se encuentra dividida entre sus amistades y su lealtad a su familia y su padre. La cuestión de la clase social y la lucha de poder entre capital y labor se convierte en un tema central.

    while you say for a while you'll return
  • 00:03:36

    London has to offer you why should you
  • 00:04:03
    wish to bury yourself in the country
  • 00:04:05
    life may be Fuller and richer elsewhere
  • 00:04:07
    elsewhere Margaret there is no place for

    prey well it is generally noised in
  • 00:04:28
    London but I've been Edith's companion
  • 00:04:30
    all these years because my mother
  • 00:04:32
    suffers from ill health well is that not
  • 00:04:35
    true partly true the real reason is that
  • 00:04:39
    my aunt considered my mother had married
  • 00:04:41
    beneatha that is why I've been as it
  • 00:04:44

    me a country Parish was not what was in
  • 00:14:26
    her mind for all her years she wished me
  • 00:14:29
    to
  • 00:14:30
    climb a month ago her wish was
  • 00:14:34
    granted the bishop offered me a much
  • 00:14:37
    better living a town
  • 00:14:41
    Parish I refused
  • 00:14:43
    it poor mama had I accepted I would have
  • 00:14:47
    had to make a fresh Declaration of my
  • 00:14:48
    Conformity I would have had to declare
  • 00:14:50
    again my belief in the whole of the
  • 00:14:53
    Liturgy and
  • 00:14:55
    I I do
  • 00:14:57
    not I I cannot have you acquainted the
  • 00:15:00
    bishop with all this he has been most
  • 00:15:02
    kind he has tried many arguments
  • 00:15:05
    arguments which I have applied to myself
  • 00:15:08
    with no
  • 00:15:11
    avail on Sunday I preach my farewell
  • 00:15:15
    summon next
  • 00:15:19
    Sunday but what does mama say to this
  • 00:15:24
    she she does not know not know
  • 00:15:30
    you have not told her I'm a coward
  • 00:15:33
    Margaret but she must be told she
  • 00:15:36
    must she
  • 00:15:40
    must I would like you to to help me to
  • 00:15:43
    tell her the idea of her distress fills
  • 00:15:46
    me with
  • 00:15:47
    Dread I shall be out tomorrow saying
  • 00:15:50
    farewell to the
  • 00:15:52
    parish perhaps
  • 00:15:55
    then it is a painful thing but she must
  • 00:15:58
    be told
  • 00:16:01
    but let us have everything
  • 00:16:03
    clear what is going to happen to us
  • 00:16:06
    where should we go where should we live
  • 00:16:08
    I have been in correspondence with your
  • 00:16:10
    godfather with with Mr Bell he has
  • 00:16:12
    helped me throughout my life ever since
  • 00:16:15
    my days at Oxford when I when I studied
  • 00:16:17
    under Him He suggests that we should
  • 00:16:19
    take up residence in Milton Milton he
  • 00:16:23
    knows the place well he he he was born
  • 00:16:25
    there Milton the town in the north yes
  • 00:16:27
    Margaret manufacturing Town
  • 00:16:32
    yes but why why there Mr Bell owns a
  • 00:16:37
    great deal of property there of
  • 00:16:38
    tenaments and houses and
  • 00:16:41
    factories he rarely sees them but he is
  • 00:16:44
    bound to to to keep up his connections
  • 00:16:48
    he he assures me there's a very good
  • 00:16:50
    opening for a private tutor there a
  • 00:16:53
    private tutor I must earn food for the
  • 00:16:56
    family Margaret small income I have is
  • 00:16:59
    not enough not nearly enough but in
  • 00:17:01
    Milton of all places but what in the
  • 00:17:04
    world of Manufacturers want with the
  • 00:17:05
    classics they are the accomplishments of
  • 00:17:08
    gentlemen but Mr Bell tells me there are
  • 00:17:10
    many who are conscious of their
  • 00:17:11
    deficiencies and willing to
  • 00:17:14
    learn dear papa I have one pupil already
  • 00:17:18
    oh Mr Bell has recommended me to a
  • 00:17:21
    tenant of his a Mr Mr Thornton a most
  • 00:17:24
    intelligent man have you met
  • 00:17:27
    him no of course not you will probably
  • 00:17:30
    find here some very pretentious
  • 00:17:34
    nobody when do we
  • 00:17:38
    leave in a
  • 00:17:41
    fortnite a
  • 00:17:43
    fortnite not exactly to the day nothing
  • 00:17:46
    is fixed but something must be
  • 00:17:50
    fixed oh poor
  • 00:17:53
    mama to know nothing about it but what
  • 00:17:56
    does he mean DS he knows better than the
  • 00:17:59
    church is that it can't the bishop do
  • 00:18:01
    anything to change his mind I'm afraid
  • 00:18:03
    not it is all settled he is going to
  • 00:18:06
    leave Helston in a
  • 00:18:08
    fortnight a
  • 00:18:10
    fortnite oh no that's not right I call
  • 00:18:12
    that very unfeeling how goody it is his
  • 00:18:15
    conscience mama no it's not his
  • 00:18:17
    conscience it's
  • 00:18:22
    him forgive
  • 00:18:24
    me he is the man I married and I love
  • 00:18:27
    him
  • 00:18:29
    but how different all this is from what
  • 00:18:31
    I
  • 00:18:35
    expected I had hopes of a cathedral
  • 00:18:38
    clister you know such a gentle life is a
  • 00:18:41

    Homer and Plato are somewhat
  • 00:24:09
    Advanced do not conjugations and
  • 00:24:12
    declensions come first not to his Mr
  • 00:24:14
    thoron until the age of 15 he attended a
  • 00:24:18
    school he
  • 00:24:20
    did how much do you know about you only
  • 00:24:23
    what Mr Bell has told me in his letters
  • 00:24:25
    and what is that at the age of
  • 00:24:28
    Mr Thornton was left to support his
  • 00:24:31
    mother and sister
  • 00:24:33
    alone his father
  • 00:24:36
    had his father had speculated wildly had
  • 00:24:41
    gambled with other people's money and
  • 00:24:45
    lost he took his own life according to
  • 00:24:48
    Mr Bell young Thornton was removed from
  • 00:24:52
    the school and found employment in a
  • 00:24:54
    draper shop and he was paid 50 15
  • 00:24:58
    Shillings a week of that sum three
  • 00:25:01
    Shillings were set aside as savings and
  • 00:25:03
    a similar amount was used to pay off his
  • 00:25:06
    father's debts one
  • 00:25:08
    wonders one wonders how they lived and
  • 00:25:11
    yet now he is a manufacturer would
  • 00:25:14
    self-help Margaret
  • 00:25:17
    self-help but there is certainly a power
  • 00:25:19
    and a resolution in his
  • 00:25:21
    face I should never wish to cross swords
  • 00:25:24
    with a man of Mr Thornton's
  • 00:25:26
    temperament
  • 00:25:29
    well one thing at least is
  • 00:25:32
    certain we
  • 00:25:33
    have chosen a new
  • 00:25:36
    home yes
  • 00:25:38
    papa we have a
  • 00:25:45
    house oh this fog you can smell it in
  • 00:25:49
    the house it creeps in
  • 00:25:56
    everywhere
  • 00:25:57
    [Music]
  • 00:26:00
    Margaret do this catch for me if we
  • 00:26:03
    don't keep the windows tightly shut we
  • 00:26:05
    should be
  • 00:26:07
    [Music]
  • 00:26:10
    choked
  • 00:26:12
    Richard Richard how are we to spend the
  • 00:26:14
    rest of our lives here these last few
  • 00:26:17
    weeks have been the worst part of the
  • 00:26:19
    Year my dear the the spring will be here
  • 00:26:21
    presently and with the Sun the the fogs
  • 00:26:24
    will disperse is there ever any sun in
  • 00:26:27
    Milton
  • 00:26:28
    I've seen no sign of it well in London
  • 00:26:30
    Mama the fogs are sometimes far worse
  • 00:26:33
    but then you had friends in London so
  • 00:26:35
    did I when I was a girl gay social
  • 00:26:38
    evenings that could shut out any
  • 00:26:41
    fog but here we were quite
  • 00:26:44
    desolate I took the liberty of light in
  • 00:26:46
    the lamps
  • 00:26:52
    ma'am I know they're half hour before
  • 00:26:55

  • 00:26:56
    time but
  • 00:26:58
    but just best to get these shutters
  • 00:27:00
    barred up it's a good idea Dixon ah
  • 00:27:05
    it'll keep the bad air
  • 00:27:07
    out fog brings an awful smell with it
  • 00:27:11
    from these
  • 00:27:15
    canals
  • 00:27:16
    Margaret yes mama get me My Wo

    this hour unescorted oh mama you heard
  • 00:27:33
    the factory Hooters well well hundreds
  • 00:27:35
    of girls have just finished their day's
  • 00:27:37
    work and are walking home alone at this
  • 00:27:39
    moment but you're not a factory girl
  • 00:27:41
    Margaret no M but I'm going to visit one
  • 00:27:44
    visit one I've promised who is she
  • 00:27:47
    Margaret neighbors Papa she and her
  • 00:27:50
    father live nearby oh not in the
  • 00:27:51
    backtack houses if we are not to remain
  • 00:27:54
    desolate we must mix a little more but
  • 00:27:56
    Margaret such such people you you cannot
  • 00:27:58
    be serious but I am have you been
  • 00:28:02
    invited yes twice well that is what
  • 00:28:05
    makes it so
  • 00:28:06
    embarrassing I cannot pass them again in
  • 00:28:08
    the street and let them invite me a
  • 00:28:10
    third
  • 00:28:11
    time the girl is so desperately sick and
  • 00:28:13
    Ill it's pitiful to see her Margaret
  • 00:28:17
    loves to do good works but this is not
  • 00:28:19
    Hampshire dear we haven't the means to
  • 00:28:21
    comfort the poor there's no arms box to
  • 00:28:24
    distribute is there Richard no my mother
  • 00:28:27
    this is not
  • 00:28:28
    charity it is a girl of my own age but
  • 00:28:32
    she's too ill to work in the factories
  • 00:28:33
    as she used to she needs a
  • 00:28:36
    friend I need a friend
  • 00:28:38
    too here is my real opportunity of
  • 00:28:41
    getting to know someone who lives here

    but Margaret she lives in one of those
  • 00:28:44

    that is why I've put off going to see
  • 00:28:53
    them I
  • 00:28:54

  • 00:28:58
    life is so much richer when you are part
  • 00:29:00
    of it all one thing is certain Mar this
  • 00:29:04
    northern town and its ways has a great

    and how would you translate that Mr th
  • 00:34:40
    see always aim at the highest honors and
  • 00:34:43
    surpass all those around you Noble
  • 00:34:46
    sentiments aren't they Noble oh yes here
  • 00:34:50
    we have hippus telling his son glus he
  • 00:34:53
    must never forget he is a Highborn
  • 00:34:55
    Aristocrat super ior to all others if I
  • 00:34:59
    may say so Mr hail coming from the south
  • 00:35:01
    with aristocratic connections yourself
  • 00:35:03
    You' be bound to give the lines that
  • 00:35:04
    interpretation what other interpretation
  • 00:35:06
    is there you see to my mind Homer's
  • 00:35:11
    exhortation is to any man those from the
  • 00:35:13
    north of England had he own them he
  • 00:35:15
    wants them to use their brains and their
  • 00:35:17
    talents in a competitive way to rise
  • 00:35:19
    above the the common multitude it's got
  • 00:35:21
    nothing to do with
  • 00:35:23
    aristocracy he's saying those who can
  • 00:35:26
    battle the hard and got the wit to do it
  • 00:35:27
    deserve the best positions in
  • 00:35:30
    society he's got a message for today as
  • 00:35:32
    Homer nevertheless Mr Thon I must insist
  • 00:35:36
    that Homer is here talking about the
  • 00:35:39
    aristocratic Warrior ideal I think so
  • 00:35:42
    yes hippus is only one Ally of the
  • 00:35:45
    Trojans amongst many yet he insists that
  • 00:35:48
    his tribe must shine above all others
  • 00:35:51
    but you could say that of us the
  • 00:35:53
    northern tribe you say we've got
  • 00:35:54
    something which is far superior to
  • 00:35:56
    anything the South can provide and what
  • 00:35:58
    is more we know it and what is the
  • 00:36:00
    something you have got Mr Thornton do
  • 00:36:02
    beg your pardon Miss H I didn't hear you
  • 00:36:04
    come in Margaret do go through Mr
  • 00:36:06
    Thornton and we shall have some tea
  • 00:36:09
    after our herculan labors no labor sit
  • 00:36:13
    down won't you thank
  • 00:36:17
    you and what have you got Mr Thornton
  • 00:36:19
    that is so superior to the
  • 00:36:23
    south in
  • 00:36:25
    short hard work work and true
  • 00:36:28
    determination the will to
  • 00:36:31
    win only some of you Mr Thornton only
  • 00:36:34
    people like you
  • 00:36:38
    Margaret have you a carding room Mr
  • 00:36:41
    Thornton and do the girls die from the
  • 00:36:43
    fluff carding room I don't follow Marg
  • 00:36:47
    no doubt Mr Thornton will explain you
  • 00:36:50
    have been talking to some of the workers
  • 00:36:52
    yes then let me tell you this Miss hail
  • 00:36:55
    I'm willing to install a wheel in my
  • 00:36:56
    Mill
  • 00:36:57
    a great wheel that'll make a draft carry
  • 00:36:58
    away the dust it'll cost £600 but I'm
  • 00:37:01
    willing to install it and why don't you
  • 00:37:04
    because the hand say they prefer to work
  • 00:37:05
    without ventilation they say if they
  • 00:37:07
    stop swallowing the fluff they get
  • 00:37:11
    hungry even the gods are powerless Mr
  • 00:37:13
    hail when it comes to such
  • 00:37:14
    ignorance and who keeps them ignorant Mr
  • 00:37:17
    Thornton you who study
  • 00:37:20
    Homer who keeps them ignorant Miss hail
  • 00:37:22
    it's one of the great beauties of our
  • 00:37:24
    system that a working man can't better
  • 00:37:25
    himself because even become a master if
  • 00:37:27
    he applies himself now I've risen they
  • 00:37:30
    haven't I've become a master and as such
  • 00:37:33
    I employed despotism I hope a wise one
  • 00:37:37
    but a despotism nevertheless in a
  • 00:37:38
    heroical sense I mean indeed I make
  • 00:37:41
    order out of chaos that's what a master
  • 00:37:44
    does and I think my order is infinitely
  • 00:37:47
    Superior to their chaos you put your own
  • 00:37:50
    interest first of course certainly I do
  • 00:37:52
    miss hail my interest must always come
  • 00:37:54
