The Taking of Power by Louis XIV

00:00:04 THE RISE OF LOUIS XIV

00:04:52 But he was bled three times yesterday

00:08:42 That's what saddens me

00:10:25 Take Brouage, for example

00:14:15 I have never aspired to rise above my station

00:16:31 If Fouquet becomes Prime Minister...

00:25:25 ...to be generous to my unfortunate family

00:28:10 Are you moved ?

00:29:54 In January, 49, we were forced to flee by night...

00:31:53 Forgive me, Madame

00:34:02 You know the King as well as I do

00:41:08 You will provide counsel when I seek it

00:43:19 This is the report

00:45:03 I am not averse to pleasure, but you abandon all restraint

00:51:05 ...and takes an interest in everything

00:54:10 Twenty thousand pistoles

00:56:55 I shall read it after. Here is my mother

00:59:41 Sire, Monsieur d'Artagnan is here

01:03:48 The nobles must again depend on the King for everything

01:05:18 ...and introduce more equitable, indirect taxation

01:08:48 I shall establish myself in my father's chateau at Versailles

01:11:02 Have you estimated how many the palace will accommodate?

01:16:08 Is the pancake mixture ready?

01:27:56 Neither sun nor death may be outfaced
