I’ll not want

16
00:02:27,188 --> 00:02:38,157
He makes me down to lie

17

in green pastures

You pig! Grow up, can’t you?

Coffee anyone?

23
00:03:29,542 --> 00:03:31,877
-Franta?
-No, I must dash.

24
00:03:31,961 --> 00:03:35,380
Another job?
You must be rolling in it.

25
00:03:35,465 --> 00:03:42,512
Can you lend me a hundred
till Monday? You’ll get it back

26
00:03:43,264 --> 00:03:45,974
I know. Or I wouldn’t lend it

27
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:47,017
Thanks

28
00:04:07,705 --> 00:04:09,081
At last!

29
00:04:34,023 --> 00:04:38,277
Your car is ideal. So practical

30
00:04:39,904 --> 00:04:41,780
Get yourself a Trabant

31
00:04:41,948 --> 00:04:46,618
You simply can’t keep up.
I’m sorry, but you can‘t.

32
00:04:46,703 --> 00:04:52,249
There are plenty of lesser
cellists who can play at funerals.

33
00:04:52,333 --> 00:04:54,209
How much is a Trabant?

34
00:04:55,628 --> 00:04:58,588
-New or second-hand?
-Second-hand

35
00:04:58,923 --> 00:05:03,844
You’d need a hatch-back.
Twenty, twenty-five thousand

36
00:05:04,554 --> 00:05:05,679
Slow down

37
00:05:12,729 --> 00:05:15,147
They looked better from behind

38
00:05:15,481 --> 00:05:18,483
That’s why I didn’t look round

39
00:05:24,157 --> 00:05:26,033
Bills, bills!

40
00:05:27,076 --> 00:05:30,495
Vultures, the lot of you

41
00:05:50,099 --> 00:05:54,394
Helenka. It’s me, Louka

42
00:05:55,104 --> 00:06:00,192
I suddenly felt so lonely
so guess who I thought of?

43
00:06:03,154 --> 00:06:04,946
You, of course

44
00:06:05,698 --> 00:06:09,701
Would you be scared to spend
a night in my ‘tower’?

45
00:06:10,453 --> 00:06:12,204
To the theatre?

46
00:06:13,664 --> 00:06:17,376
No, I’m not cross. How could I be?

47
00:06:17,710 --> 00:06:21,046
Run along then. ‘Bye

48
00:06:34,811 --> 00:06:38,605
Zuzi? It’s me, Louka

49
00:06:38,981 --> 00:06:45,195
Zuzi, I suddenly felt so lonely
so guess who I thought of?

50
00:06:48,699 --> 00:06:50,158
Oh, he’s home?

51
00:06:50,701 --> 00:06:52,994
Right. ‘Bye

SOCIALISM - OUR SECURITY

53
00:06:59,961 --> 00:07:05,799
Czechoslovak socialism is now more
democratic but unchanged in essence

54
00:07:05,883 --> 00:07:11,012
Economically inefficient, it has
no regard for human dignity

55
00:07:11,347 --> 00:07:13,598
It’s on the point of collapse

56
00:07:13,975 --> 00:07:15,725
Twenty thousand. . .

57
00:07:16,144 --> 00:07:21,273
. . .for Trabant needing repair.
Daylight robbery!

58
00:07:21,607 --> 00:07:24,401
This is Radio Free Europe

59
00:07:28,531 --> 00:07:29,865
Good morning

60
00:07:31,909 --> 00:07:35,537
The lettering needs restoring,
doesn’t it?

61
00:07:36,372 --> 00:07:39,666
-It’s the rain
-I could put it right

62
00:07:41,085 --> 00:07:43,253
I restore headstones.

63
00:07:43,421 --> 00:07:48,091
And it’s cheap. A gold letter costs
five crowns. Silver costs three.

64
00:07:48,176 --> 00:07:53,096
I recommend gold.
The silver wouldn’t stand out.

65
00:07:53,181 --> 00:07:55,474
How much would you charge?

66
00:07:55,808 --> 00:07:58,018
There aren’t many letters

67
00:08:03,441 --> 00:08:08,195
Thirty-six letters. That would be
one hundred and eighty crowns

68
00:08:09,155 --> 00:08:11,490
Why is it so expensive?

69
00:08:12,033 --> 00:08:15,952
Because you have to use.. .

70
00:08:16,287 --> 00:08:18,830
.. .real gold dust

71
00:08:21,250 --> 00:08:26,505
Pity there are two T’s in his name.
You’d have saved five crowns

72
00:08:26,589 --> 00:08:28,089
Franta!

73
00:08:29,133 --> 00:08:33,803
You won’t recognize
the grave next time, Mrs Horáčková.

74
00:08:33,888 --> 00:08:35,764
All in gold.

75
00:08:38,809 --> 00:08:45,941
He makes me lie down

76
00:08:46,943 --> 00:08:50,028
in green pastures

77
00:08:50,112 --> 00:08:54,366
And leads me. . .

78
00:08:55,117 --> 00:08:59,579
.. .the quiet waters by

79
00:09:46,002 --> 00:09:49,296
Do you know how long
I’ve waited for this?

80
00:09:49,630 --> 00:09:54,342
Two years. Ever since
that usherette’s funeral

81
00:09:55,052 --> 00:09:58,346
-It’s awful
-All that time!

82
00:09:58,681 --> 00:10:05,061
No, awful that we measure time
in funerals - like funeral directors

83
00:10:05,479 --> 00:10:08,732
You were never married, do you?

84
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,235
My late father always said. ..

85
00:10:12,570 --> 00:10:16,323
If you want a musical career,
don’t marry

86
00:10:16,657 --> 00:10:19,117
Stay single

87
00:10:19,327 --> 00:10:22,495
Celibate, no kissing.

88
00:10:26,375 --> 00:10:28,793
Do you always get hiccups?

89
00:10:29,003 --> 00:10:31,254
Yes, always afterwards

90
00:10:31,339 --> 00:10:35,175
When it’s. .. that good

91
00:10:38,304 --> 00:10:40,013
Try this

92
00:10:40,723 --> 00:10:44,351
Bite your little finger

93
00:10:44,685 --> 00:10:49,356
It puts pressure on
the hiccup points

94
00:10:51,025 --> 00:10:57,030
Or try lifting your left leg
at the same time as your right arm. . .

95
00:10:57,323 --> 00:11:01,951
. ..so the blood drains out

96
00:11:04,664 --> 00:11:07,707
First time I heard that.
What’s that noise?

97
00:11:10,086 --> 00:11:12,087
It’s the pigeons

98
00:11:13,005 --> 00:11:16,508
Sharpening their beaks
on the window sill

99
00:11:17,551 --> 00:11:22,764
I must have got it wrong
Lift up your left leg

100
00:11:23,724 --> 00:11:25,725
That’s my right leg

101
00:11:26,060 --> 00:11:28,687
The other way about then

102
00:11:29,021 --> 00:11:35,193
Why did they chuck you
out of the Philharmonic?

103
00:11:36,904 --> 00:11:39,948
I don’t feel like talking about it

104
00:11:40,157 --> 00:11:42,075
Then don’t

105
00:11:44,537 --> 00:11:47,205
Guess what? It works

106
00:11:47,540 --> 00:11:49,833
I told you it would

107
00:11:51,085 --> 00:11:55,296
Why are they
sharpening their beaks?

108
00:11:55,631 --> 00:11:59,509
That’s easily explained

109
00:12:02,221 --> 00:12:04,305
So they’re sharp

110
00:12:05,057 --> 00:12:07,225
You are an idiot!

111
00:12:21,949 --> 00:12:24,576
-Hi, comrade
-God bless you too

112
00:12:24,994 --> 00:12:30,081
I’ve loads of orders for you.
Three in gold, two in silver

113
00:12:30,416 --> 00:12:31,583
Here you are

114
00:12:31,917 --> 00:12:35,962
It’s all written down

115
00:12:36,297 --> 00:12:41,301
Mr Broz, a grave-digger like you
brings joy to the whole cemetery

116
00:12:42,470 --> 00:12:44,763
You’re doing it so well

117
00:12:45,347 --> 00:12:50,059
I’m trying not to smudge it.

118
00:12:51,145 --> 00:12:54,439
Mr. Louka, tell us
about the concert in America.

119
00:12:54,523 --> 00:12:57,776
-Which one?
-The one at the hall.

120
00:12:57,860 --> 00:13:03,782
-I already told you about it.
-But Ladik hasn‘t heard it yet.

121
00:13:04,241 --> 00:13:10,789
We played ‘‘My Country’’ in New York.

122
00:13:10,915 --> 00:13:13,875
-By Dvorak.
-By Smetana.

123
00:13:14,627 --> 00:13:19,047
Carnegie Hall was packed.

124
00:13:19,965 --> 00:13:24,803
We didn’t get much of a welcome.

125
00:13:24,929 --> 00:13:30,767
We were tired after our trip,
but we got a second wind.

126
00:13:30,893 --> 00:13:33,228
Which races were there?

127
00:13:33,938 --> 00:13:40,401
Chinese, Japanese, Mexicans. . .

128
00:13:40,820 --> 00:13:45,365
I wondered what
this one big black fellow

129
00:13:45,825 --> 00:13:53,581
could get out of songs
about places he didn’t know.

130
00:13:53,958 --> 00:13:55,834
Now listen.

131
00:13:56,460 --> 00:14:04,592
When we finished playing
you could hear a pin drop.

132
00:14:05,511 --> 00:14:09,097
-Then all hell broke loose.
-Applause.

133
00:14:09,181 --> 00:14:16,229
We were in shock.
It was like an avalanche.

134
00:14:16,981 --> 00:14:29,117
While we were bowing
I could see the black man clapping.

135
00:14:29,869 --> 00:14:37,917
Tears were streaming down his face.

136
00:14:38,586 --> 00:14:45,091
Music exceeds race and nationality.

137
00:14:46,302 --> 00:14:48,595
I was beside myself.

138
00:14:49,513 --> 00:14:51,389
And I’m finished.

139
00:15:17,875 --> 00:15:21,252
Don’t touch it!

140
00:15:21,712 --> 00:15:24,714
You only owe me 37,600 now

141
00:15:24,798 --> 00:15:28,885
I’m doing my best
but I really need a car

142
00:15:29,094 --> 00:15:33,222
We could sort out the car problem

143
00:15:33,307 --> 00:15:36,017
Yes, but how would I pay?

144
00:15:36,101 --> 00:15:39,896
Exactly my point.
I’ve a wonderful job for you

145
00:15:40,314 --> 00:15:44,776
30,000 for a day’s work
Straight into your pocket

146
00:15:44,860 --> 00:15:48,196
Daddy, Andy has a tick

147
00:15:50,699 --> 00:15:53,159
Do you have a pet at home?

148
00:15:53,494 --> 00:15:55,119
No, no pets

149
00:15:55,204 --> 00:15:57,538
Do you have a baby?

150
00:15:58,248 --> 00:15:59,540
Nor a baby

151
00:15:59,625 --> 00:16:01,626
What do you have?

152
00:16:01,752 --> 00:16:05,296
Go out and play
I’ll deal with the tick

153
00:16:07,758 --> 00:16:12,345
I won’t beat about the bush.
It’s a question of marriage

154
00:16:12,429 --> 00:16:15,264
I have this old ‘aunt’

155
00:16:15,557 --> 00:16:19,936
I’m not marrying
Least of all an old aunt

156
00:16:20,020 --> 00:16:22,814
-She’s Russian
-Worse still

157
00:16:23,023 --> 00:16:25,566
It’s not the aunt, it’s her niece

158
00:16:25,651 --> 00:16:27,568
Not even a niece

159
00:16:27,653 --> 00:16:31,447
Just a fake marriage

160
00:16:32,866 --> 00:16:37,787
No, I’m against marriage
in any shape or form

161
00:16:38,914 --> 00:16:41,499
Cheers, cheers!

162
00:16:46,255 --> 00:16:48,798
She’s visiting her aunt.. .

163
00:16:48,882 --> 00:16:52,635
.. .and needs our papers
to avoid being sent back

164
00:16:55,055 --> 00:16:58,558
Sounds fishy. It’s not for me

165
00:16:59,018 --> 00:17:04,230
In six months you get a divorce

166
00:17:04,648 --> 00:17:06,941
-Is Andy here?
-He has a tick

167
00:17:07,026 --> 00:17:09,569
I thought I’d lost you

168
00:17:09,695 --> 00:17:11,821
We’re talking business

169
00:17:11,905 --> 00:17:15,241
-You know what I think
-Leave us alone

170
00:17:16,368 --> 00:17:22,540
A fake wedding, Mr Louka.
Just pretending! For 40 grand

171
00:17:23,208 --> 00:17:25,084
It was 30 before

172
00:17:25,169 --> 00:17:28,296
She’d willingly pay you 40

173
00:17:28,422 --> 00:17:32,717
You could buy a car
and still repay me 20,000

174
00:17:33,260 --> 00:17:36,471
It’s better
than renovating headstones

175
00:17:37,264 --> 00:17:39,515
Graves, graves

176
00:17:39,808 --> 00:17:42,226
A heck of a job

177
00:17:44,104 --> 00:17:46,522
You’ve lots of pets

178
00:17:46,607 --> 00:17:51,402
A grave-digger has to have
living things around him

179
00:17:51,820 --> 00:17:56,949
Her name is Nadezda.
It’s just a business deal

180
00:17:58,994 --> 00:18:03,206
I can’t, Mr Broz.
It’s not for me

181
00:18:22,267 --> 00:18:24,227
Franta, stop that

182
00:18:35,072 --> 00:18:38,324
Come to see your mother,
have you?

183
00:18:38,659 --> 00:18:40,827
Yes, how are you?

184
00:18:41,203 --> 00:18:44,789
-Hi Fanda!
-Hi! -Surprised?

185
00:18:45,791 --> 00:18:48,209
They’re finished already.

186
00:18:48,293 --> 00:18:51,504
-Know the name of this building?
-Nope.

187
00:18:51,588 --> 00:18:54,298
-Coconut.
-Coconut?

188
00:18:54,842 --> 00:18:57,718
Meaning ‘‘Communist church’’.

189
00:18:59,471 --> 00:19:02,348
-Hi. -Hi.
-Geeze. . .

190
00:19:20,576 --> 00:19:22,160
Frankie!

191
00:19:22,327 --> 00:19:26,497
Go home and practise.
Today was too awful!

192
00:19:29,168 --> 00:19:33,921
I thought you might come.
Guess what I’ve made for lunch

193
00:19:34,047 --> 00:19:35,882
Potato dumplings

194
00:19:35,966 --> 00:19:39,510
I was in the chemist’s.
I said ‘‘I’ll make him dumplings’’

195
00:19:39,595 --> 00:19:41,345
That’s great

196
00:19:42,556 --> 00:19:45,725
Vic has written.
Look in the cupboard

197
00:19:46,059 --> 00:19:50,980
It arrived yesterday.
He sent beautiful photographs.

198
00:19:51,064 --> 00:19:54,108
Yet you didn’t even send a postcard.

199
00:19:54,193 --> 00:19:58,362
The Philharmonic was in Belgium.
Were you there?

200
00:19:58,447 --> 00:20:02,909
I heard about it on the radio.
You can’t even drop your mom a line.

201
00:20:02,993 --> 00:20:04,952
There wasn’t enough time.

202
00:20:05,037 --> 00:20:10,124
The Belgians dragged us around
from pillar to post.

203
00:20:11,793 --> 00:20:14,337
Read it aloud

204
00:20:14,671 --> 00:20:16,547
Maybe later

205
00:20:16,632 --> 00:20:22,345
Sometimes I think you don’t like
your brother. What did he do to you?

206
00:20:22,638 --> 00:20:25,556
What he did was leave

207
00:20:25,849 --> 00:20:31,604
And you hold that against him?
He went with nothing. ..

208
00:20:31,980 --> 00:20:34,941
. . .and now he has a good business

209
00:20:35,025 --> 00:20:37,568
And I have bugger all

210
00:20:37,653 --> 00:20:42,573
You’re a virtuoso player,
you’ll have money again one day

211
00:20:42,658 --> 00:20:46,244
Here you are. There’s lots more

212
00:20:46,870 --> 00:20:51,123
Mr Holecek says
we need new guttering

213
00:20:51,750 --> 00:20:54,252
-New guttering?
-Yes

214
00:20:54,419 --> 00:20:57,755
The gutters have rusted through

215
00:20:57,965 --> 00:21:02,802
He said 2,000 would cover it
Materials and labour

216
00:21:03,470 --> 00:21:09,350
I can’t afford it.
This house has cleaned me out

217
00:21:09,559 --> 00:21:13,271
I’ve had to sell my car. I’m in debt

218
00:21:13,355 --> 00:21:16,023
Where am I to find the money?

219
00:21:16,108 --> 00:21:18,609
Don’t talk like that

220
00:21:18,735 --> 00:21:23,739
Frankie, the house is yours
now you’ve bought Vic out

221
00:21:24,241 --> 00:21:28,327
But for that, we’d have lost it
to the state, when Vic emigrated

222
00:21:28,412 --> 00:21:31,831
Would you want me to live
with strangers?

223
00:21:34,501 --> 00:21:37,712
We’ll finish our coffee,
then we’ll play. Okay?

224
00:21:37,796 --> 00:21:40,589
We haven’t played together in ages.

225
00:21:40,674 --> 00:21:42,550
See you tonight!

226
00:21:44,011 --> 00:21:45,886
Just don’t fall!

227
00:21:54,062 --> 00:21:57,356
Still playing for corpses, Franta?

228
00:22:00,527 --> 00:22:04,363
What about you? Still playing
for gall-bladder patients?

229
00:22:04,531 --> 00:22:09,869
Yes. Come see us.
The music at the spa is more cheerful.

230
00:22:10,871 --> 00:22:15,666
Bye! I’m hurrying to catch the bus.
Goodbye, Mrs Loukova.

231
00:22:15,751 --> 00:22:20,504
You, maestro,
are going to play at the colonade.

232
00:22:21,465 --> 00:22:25,468
What’s this about corpses?

233
00:22:25,552 --> 00:22:28,846
That’s what we call
a concert audience. ..

234
00:22:28,930 --> 00:22:32,350
.. .when it’s dead
and doesn’t respond

235
00:22:34,102 --> 00:22:39,774
It was blocked here. Otherwise
the gutters are in fairly good shape

236
00:22:42,110 --> 00:22:45,529
Except for the odd spot

237
00:22:49,993 --> 00:22:52,828
Well, I’ll be blowed!

238
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,082
How did this get here?

239
00:22:59,419 --> 00:23:03,714
It’s not very valuable, Frankie

240
00:23:04,174 --> 00:23:08,135
Just a piece of costume jewelry

241
00:23:08,261 --> 00:23:12,264
That’s not entirely certain.
How did it get there?

242
00:23:14,768 --> 00:23:17,186
Where did you get it?

243
00:23:17,270 --> 00:23:19,146
I found it

244
00:23:20,649 --> 00:23:23,984
And what do you think it’s worth?

245
00:23:24,069 --> 00:23:26,362
You tell me

246
00:23:26,446 --> 00:23:31,575
I could give you five
or maybe ten crowns for it

247
00:23:36,998 --> 00:23:40,584
A couple are walking along
your street

248
00:23:40,836 --> 00:23:45,506
She says ‘‘You and this trinket
can both go to hell!’’

249
00:23:45,632 --> 00:23:50,719
And she tosses it into the air.
That’s how I see it

250
00:23:51,179 --> 00:23:54,515
Mr Broz, I think I agree

251
00:23:54,724 --> 00:23:58,769
Of course.
There’s no other explanation

252
00:24:00,021 --> 00:24:05,776
I mean this bogus marriage.
I might agree to it

253
00:24:12,576 --> 00:24:17,371
You can talk to Nadezda in German

254
00:24:18,081 --> 00:24:22,668
She translates
from Russian into German

255
00:24:23,086 --> 00:24:25,963
I’m afraid I speak neither

256
00:24:26,047 --> 00:24:29,550
Oh, you Czechs,
the story of your life!

257
00:24:29,843 --> 00:24:34,013
First you’re allergic to Germans
and then it’s Russians

258
00:24:34,097 --> 00:24:38,434
It’s not that.
I’ve no head for languages

259
00:24:38,685 --> 00:24:43,063
Anyway, who cares
how they talk together?

260
00:24:43,648 --> 00:24:47,026
Every Czech knows some Russian

261
00:24:48,403 --> 00:24:51,822
Every Czech speak a bit Russian

262
00:24:51,907 --> 00:24:53,115
Except me

263
00:24:53,909 --> 00:24:55,910
Except him?

264
00:24:56,870 --> 00:25:00,498
They won’t suspect.
What’s important. ..

265
00:25:01,041 --> 00:25:07,254
.. .is for Maestro Louka to know there
are no tricks. Divorce in six months

266
00:25:09,132 --> 00:25:13,594
A fake wedding, that’s all.
No hidden agenda

267
00:25:13,678 --> 00:25:19,517
Nadezda has a little boy.
And she’s very young

268
00:25:20,268 --> 00:25:25,231
You could be her father.
What would she do with you?

269
00:25:28,068 --> 00:25:32,655
Tamara, tell him
it has to be a real wedding

270
00:25:33,448 --> 00:25:37,451
We want a real wedding

271
00:25:37,661 --> 00:25:41,705
There must be a reception. ..

272
00:25:41,790 --> 00:25:49,505
.. .and a wedding night.
Everything like a normal wedding

273
00:25:49,756 --> 00:25:51,257
A wedding night?

274
00:25:51,341 --> 00:25:56,095
The first night you’ll sleep
together. But in different rooms

275
00:25:56,221 --> 00:26:00,349
To avoid suspicion -
in case you’re followed

276
00:26:05,855 --> 00:26:07,314
A deposit

277
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:11,902
Have you any idea how much
it costs to fix Russian officials?

278
00:26:14,489 --> 00:26:17,324
You don’t want to know

279
00:27:07,667 --> 00:27:10,586
Franta, I’m amazed

280
00:27:10,670 --> 00:27:12,963
Good luck

281
00:27:14,591 --> 00:27:17,468
She’s a beauty, a real beauty!

282
00:27:17,677 --> 00:27:19,386
Must you be everywhere?

283
00:27:24,225 --> 00:27:29,772
-Hi, Eman. Louka here.
-They’re blowing their horns. . .

284
00:27:33,276 --> 00:27:37,821
Keep this to yourself.
Huh? This is a fun place.

285
00:27:37,906 --> 00:27:42,993
-There was a girl who loved him.. .
-Please be quiet.

286
00:27:43,495 --> 00:27:50,125
Don’t tell anyone
what you saw at Vysehrad, Eman.

287
00:27:51,711 --> 00:27:56,215
I don’t want anyone
to know about the wedding.

288
00:27:57,592 --> 00:28:02,471
-Don’t sing so loud.
-It’s either all or nothing.

289
00:28:02,555 --> 00:28:06,100
Keep it under wraps.

290
00:28:06,393 --> 00:28:08,268
Who’d you tell?

291
00:28:08,812 --> 00:28:11,021
You’re an idiot, Eman.

292
00:28:13,149 --> 00:28:17,069
And with his finger on the trigger

293
00:28:17,862 --> 00:28:20,531
he looks into the bushes. . .

294
00:29:09,748 --> 00:29:10,831
Friends

295
00:29:11,082 --> 00:29:12,374
Druzya

296
00:29:12,500 --> 00:29:16,545
I like my wife, Nadezda,
very much

297
00:29:16,629 --> 00:29:20,257
I like my wife very much

298
00:29:23,511 --> 00:29:25,512
I’ve decided. . .

299
00:29:27,223 --> 00:29:30,642
. . .that Nadezda my wife and I. . .

300
00:29:31,060 --> 00:29:35,439
. . .shall enjoy a truly beautiful.. .

301
00:29:35,523 --> 00:29:38,275
. . .real wedding night

302
00:29:40,236 --> 00:29:42,821
-What did he say?
-A joke

303
00:29:42,906 --> 00:29:48,452
It would be a great pity
if a Czech man denied. . .

304
00:29:48,620 --> 00:29:56,168
. ..his Russian wife
her unde. . . undeni. . .

305
00:29:56,753 --> 00:30:00,088
. . .undeniable right

306
00:30:02,634 --> 00:30:05,844
-Wait, where are you going?
-Frantisek, you drink a lot.

307
00:30:05,929 --> 00:30:07,679
Yes, we drank a lot. ..

308
00:30:07,764 --> 00:30:11,225
Fabulous, Mr Louka, but have a seat.

309
00:30:11,309 --> 00:30:16,355
Because we drank so much,
I now ask that the guests

310
00:30:16,439 --> 00:30:21,527
such as Broz,
return to their own homes

311
00:30:22,111 --> 00:30:24,780
and leave the couple alone.

312
00:30:25,782 --> 00:30:27,658
Come, Nadyezda.

313
00:30:27,951 --> 00:30:33,372
We should all keep in mind
that a wedding night. . .

314
00:30:33,456 --> 00:30:36,625
You only get one wedding night.

315
00:30:37,710 --> 00:30:45,259
I’d like Nadyezda Ivanovna
to remember Prague for a long time.

316
00:30:45,426 --> 00:30:51,682
And I promise tonight I’ll be as hot-
blooded as any Russian Don Juan

317
00:30:51,891 --> 00:30:53,267
Idiot!

318
00:30:53,518 --> 00:30:55,310
I’ll be. ..

319
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,356
. ..a real Cassanova!

320
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:04,194
Mr Louka, they don’t understand
your jokes. They’re terrified

321
00:31:04,696 --> 00:31:06,530
Very proper

322
00:31:06,614 --> 00:31:11,702
Every bride should be terrified
on her wedding night

323
00:31:12,328 --> 00:31:18,625
The baby’s coming.
The contractions have started

324
00:31:21,588 --> 00:31:24,006
Go home. Look after the children

325
00:31:26,467 --> 00:31:28,260
I have to go

326
00:31:56,789 --> 00:31:59,458
Nadezda!

327
00:32:01,336 --> 00:32:03,337
Wife!

328
00:32:42,710 --> 00:32:44,461
New, isn’t it?

329
00:32:44,587 --> 00:32:46,254
Not quite

330
00:32:46,339 --> 00:32:50,509
No? It looks pretty new to me

331
00:32:50,718 --> 00:32:53,470
No rust anywhere

332
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,056
These cars never rust

333
00:32:56,140 --> 00:32:59,810
Then it was a good buy

334
00:33:02,814 --> 00:33:08,318
Look at all those Russians!
They’re like locusts

335
00:33:11,197 --> 00:33:15,158
Would you believe it? Lots of Czechs
do business with them

336
00:33:15,243 --> 00:33:20,247
It’s certainly cheaper - diesel,
petrol, coal

337
00:33:21,499 --> 00:33:25,919
But collaborating like that!
Fine patriots, they are

338
00:33:26,963 --> 00:33:29,464
When the Russians invaded. . .

339
00:33:29,549 --> 00:33:33,510
.. .people said they wouldn’t even
give them stale bread or water

340
00:33:33,594 --> 00:33:36,930
And look at them now

341
00:33:37,015 --> 00:33:42,436
Just as well
you didn’t live to see it

342
00:33:43,563 --> 00:33:46,314
I‘ve brought you coffee and chocolate.

343
00:33:46,399 --> 00:33:50,819
Did you give a concert abroad?
Where? I missed that.

344
00:33:50,903 --> 00:33:54,156
In.. . In Switzerland.

345
00:33:55,700 --> 00:34:00,203
The Swiss have always
had the best chocolate.

346
00:34:08,337 --> 00:34:10,088
Like a lift?

347
00:34:16,345 --> 00:34:18,305
Is this your dowry?

348
00:34:19,223 --> 00:34:22,684
I see people can’t keep
their mouths shut

349
00:34:23,478 --> 00:34:25,145
It’s a nice car

350
00:34:25,897 --> 00:34:29,524
You’re better off
in more ways than one

351
00:34:29,650 --> 00:34:33,528
-Look, this marriage.. .
-I’m not interested

352
00:34:33,946 --> 00:34:37,324
I live alone
Nothing has changed

353
00:34:37,450 --> 00:34:41,703
I’m such an idiot, I nearly
divorced because of you

354
00:34:42,455 --> 00:34:45,624
Klara, let’s go to my place

355
00:34:47,418 --> 00:34:50,253
Stop, I’d like to get out

356
00:34:52,298 --> 00:34:55,050
I want to get out

357
00:35:10,316 --> 00:35:13,485
I’ve done all your washing
and ironing

358
00:35:13,569 --> 00:35:15,278
Great

359
00:35:15,488 --> 00:35:19,699
We’re supposed to
decorate the windows

360
00:35:19,826 --> 00:35:24,412
Another anniversary?
I can’t keep up with them

361
00:35:24,747 --> 00:35:30,544
They’re judging again
for the best-decorated building

362
00:35:31,420 --> 00:35:35,132
My windows are too high
for them to see

363
00:35:35,216 --> 00:35:39,344
Don’t you believe it.
They watch us like hawks

364
00:35:39,428 --> 00:35:44,975
I darned two pairs of socks for you.
Should’ve seen the holes.

365
00:35:45,059 --> 00:35:49,771
Put up one Russian flag
and one of ours.. .

366
00:35:51,232 --> 00:35:53,942
.. .so they leave me in peace

367
00:35:54,026 --> 00:36:00,740
That’s 70 crowns. I’ll add it
to the 200 you already owe me

368
00:36:00,825 --> 00:36:03,493
You can have it right now

369
00:36:03,619 --> 00:36:05,370
Right now?

370
00:36:05,788 --> 00:36:07,497
I’ve no change

371
00:36:07,582 --> 00:36:09,833
Keep it

372
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:14,629
How do you do?

373
00:36:15,923 --> 00:36:18,258
Mr Stocklasa sent me

374
00:36:18,342 --> 00:36:22,804
He did, did he?
Hold this

375
00:36:33,629 --> 00:36:36,672
And what was
Mr Stoklasa’s message?

376
00:36:36,924 --> 00:36:40,301
He wanted you to look me over

377
00:36:41,637 --> 00:36:45,139
That is, he wanted you to
hear me play

378
00:36:47,684 --> 00:36:53,940
-You’re putting flags up?
-No way. I’m too old for all that

379
00:36:54,066 --> 00:36:55,024
Like a drink?

380
00:36:55,109 --> 00:36:56,609
Yes, please

381
00:36:58,278 --> 00:37:01,906
I play the viola
but I want to play the cello

382
00:37:02,282 --> 00:37:05,034
-Why. . .
-Do that?

383
00:37:06,745 --> 00:37:09,372
I like the size

384
00:37:11,542 --> 00:37:15,503
You prefer big instruments, do you?

385
00:37:17,464 --> 00:37:19,841
Play something, then

386
00:37:23,804 --> 00:37:27,473
You’ve long fingers. That’s good

387
00:37:32,896 --> 00:37:35,690
I feel nervous with you there

388
00:37:38,944 --> 00:37:42,071
Squeeze more with your knees

389
00:37:43,782 --> 00:37:45,533
Shall I play?

390
00:37:45,659 --> 00:37:47,743
Like that?

391
00:38:09,183 --> 00:38:10,892
Louka?

392
00:38:11,727 --> 00:38:13,936
Which friend?

393
00:38:15,606 --> 00:38:17,607
This minute?

394
00:38:17,858 --> 00:38:20,067
Who are you?

395
00:38:24,573 --> 00:38:26,324
Blanka

396
00:38:27,868 --> 00:38:30,411
We must make it some other time

397
00:38:30,495 --> 00:38:32,163
That’s a pity

398
00:38:33,415 --> 00:38:34,916
I know

399
00:38:35,918 --> 00:38:39,086
Come to the Green Tree

400
00:38:41,173 --> 00:38:43,674
Come to the Green Tree!

401
00:38:44,801 --> 00:38:48,429
Can I sit or do we move again?

402
00:38:48,513 --> 00:38:50,097
It’s all right here

403
00:38:50,182 --> 00:38:53,851
Are you a spy?
Is grave-digging a hobby?

404
00:38:53,936 --> 00:38:57,188
Mr Louka, we’re in deep shit

405
00:38:59,942 --> 00:39:01,651
Nadezda has emigrated

406
00:39:01,735 --> 00:39:03,319
Where to?

407
00:39:03,403 --> 00:39:04,737
Germany

408
00:39:04,821 --> 00:39:07,114
West Germany?

409
00:39:08,784 --> 00:39:12,536
She went as an interpreter
and stayed on

410
00:39:13,997 --> 00:39:17,750
She’s got a bloke.
A married businessman

411
00:39:17,834 --> 00:39:23,422
She’s nuts about him. But I thought
she’d have him visit her here

412
00:39:27,970 --> 00:39:32,556
-Why not go straight there?
-From Russia to West Germany?

413
00:39:32,641 --> 00:39:37,228
They’re not allowed. Russians
can come here but can’t go there

414
00:39:37,312 --> 00:39:40,731
So how come she got there?

415
00:39:40,816 --> 00:39:44,944
Because she has Czech papers,
thanks to you

416
00:39:47,739 --> 00:39:52,535
She left her son here,
so she was allowed to go

417
00:39:52,953 --> 00:39:56,038
Why did she go, if he’s married?

418
00:39:56,123 --> 00:39:59,125
That’s her problem, Mr Louka

419
00:39:59,251 --> 00:40:04,255
But the cops are bound to get
curious about you

420
00:40:04,923 --> 00:40:09,010
I knew it was idiotic.
I felt it in my bones

421
00:40:09,094 --> 00:40:13,889
I’m sorry.
But you’ll be all right, you’ll see

422
00:40:13,974 --> 00:40:17,685
The boy will stay with the aunt

423
00:40:18,437 --> 00:40:20,855
When should I expect them?

424
00:40:20,939 --> 00:40:23,482
-Who?
-The cops

425
00:40:26,445 --> 00:40:28,070
I’d say soon

426
00:41:17,621 --> 00:41:19,205
Frantisek Louka?

427
00:41:19,331 --> 00:41:20,331
Yes.

428
00:41:20,457 --> 00:41:23,000
You’re this lad’s father?

429
00:41:24,169 --> 00:41:28,964
We’ve the old lady he was
staying with, in our ambulance

430
00:41:29,049 --> 00:41:32,551
She’s had a stroke.
She says you’ll take over

431
00:41:33,345 --> 00:41:38,140
But I’m nobody.
I’m only his stepfather

432
00:41:38,225 --> 00:41:41,811
That’s your problem.
Sort it out among yourselves

433
00:41:41,895 --> 00:41:44,939
She says he’s to stay with you

434
00:42:00,288 --> 00:42:01,872
Come on then

435
00:42:05,836 --> 00:42:10,005
Don’t just stand there.
Come on in

436
00:42:21,476 --> 00:42:24,770
Mr Broz, do you know
what’s happened?

437
00:42:24,896 --> 00:42:30,443
You knew? Then come
and fetch him at once

438
00:42:30,569 --> 00:42:33,154
This wasn’t in the deal

439
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:37,867
We can’t solve this on the telephone

440
00:42:38,034 --> 00:42:40,786
Pop by tomorrow

441
00:42:41,788 --> 00:42:43,706
I can’t hear you

442
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:50,963
One night won’t kill you.
Give him a bath and put him to bed

443
00:43:11,109 --> 00:43:13,736
You have some slippers?

444
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,199
Something to wear indoors

445
00:43:20,869 --> 00:43:24,914
A fine conversation
this is going to be!

446
00:43:24,998 --> 00:43:27,708
This is all I needed

447
00:43:28,543 --> 00:43:30,961
Here they are

448
00:43:33,006 --> 00:43:35,591
Slippers. Yours

449
00:43:36,092 --> 00:43:41,096
Take your shoes off
and put your slippers on

450
00:43:41,264 --> 00:43:49,313
Look, stop snivelling. I’m not
over the moon about this myself

451
00:43:49,397 --> 00:43:53,901
Stick it out for one night here and
then it’s off to the grave-digger’s

452
00:43:53,985 --> 00:43:57,780
He got us into this mess.
It’s up to him to get us out

453
00:43:58,240 --> 00:44:01,200
Look what’s here

454
00:44:02,118 --> 00:44:07,122
Some crayons and paper.
You can draw

455
00:44:07,582 --> 00:44:12,461
Why don’t you sit down
and draw something?

456
00:44:12,546 --> 00:44:15,297
Scribble, scribble!

457
00:44:16,925 --> 00:44:20,594
Stare out of the window.
What do I care?

458
00:44:49,291 --> 00:44:53,210
As you’re so pig-headed,
take a good look

459
00:45:11,813 --> 00:45:13,397
Eat

460
00:45:18,361 --> 00:45:21,196
At least drink your tea

461
00:45:23,700 --> 00:45:25,200
Tea

462
00:45:25,327 --> 00:45:28,954
Russian tea,
what you lot drink non-stop

463
00:45:29,039 --> 00:45:31,165
I’ve put sugar in it

464
00:45:36,004 --> 00:45:38,964
Don’t pretend you don’t understand

465
00:45:39,049 --> 00:45:42,468
You must understand something

466
00:45:43,345 --> 00:45:45,888
We’re both of us Slavs

467
00:45:47,265 --> 00:45:50,643
I don’t speak Russian,
you don’t speak Czech. . .

468
00:45:50,727 --> 00:45:55,272
. . .but you must understand the word
‘tea’. We have it, you have it

469
00:45:56,191 --> 00:45:58,859
We use the same word

470
00:46:01,279 --> 00:46:03,197
There you are

471
00:46:04,366 --> 00:46:06,325
That’s it

472
00:46:07,577 --> 00:46:12,039
Today there are 1 1 5,000
heavily-armed Soviet soldiers. ..

473
00:46:12,123 --> 00:46:14,958
. . .in our country

474
00:46:20,215 --> 00:46:25,219
Stop snivelling and sleep.
One night won’t kill you

475
00:46:41,986 --> 00:46:44,196
Be like that then

476
00:47:18,106 --> 00:47:20,858
She was against the wedding

477
00:47:21,234 --> 00:47:22,359
Who was?

478
00:47:22,444 --> 00:47:24,903
Marush, my wife

479
00:47:26,406 --> 00:47:30,951
She kept saying
‘‘You’ll get him into trouble’’

480
00:47:31,035 --> 00:47:33,120
She was right there

481
00:47:33,204 --> 00:47:39,126
I know. So I can’t ask her
to take in a fifth child

482
00:47:39,753 --> 00:47:44,298
Mr Louka, our place is
a madhouse these days

483
00:47:44,382 --> 00:47:46,925
Try to put up with him

484
00:47:47,010 --> 00:47:50,012
I’ll let you off 2,000

485
00:47:50,430 --> 00:47:52,681
Three, 4,000

486
00:47:52,766 --> 00:47:57,060
Put yourself in my shoes.
What am I to do with him?

487
00:47:57,145 --> 00:48:00,439
Can’t that woman
with gold teeth take him in?

488
00:48:00,523 --> 00:48:03,692
Pasha? She’s in Leningrad

489
00:48:03,902 --> 00:48:09,323
Look, his aunt will be out of
hospital in a fortnight

490
00:48:09,407 --> 00:48:12,367
Keep the boy. It’s in your interest

491
00:48:12,452 --> 00:48:17,956
That’s why the aunt left him
with you - for your own sake

492
00:48:18,041 --> 00:48:23,712
Looking after your wife’s child
makes your marriage look genuine

493
00:48:24,756 --> 00:48:26,924
In whose eyes?

494
00:48:27,008 --> 00:48:30,719
The authorities’, when
they come to interrogate you

495
00:48:30,929 --> 00:48:33,347
You’ve been questioned before?

496
00:48:33,431 --> 00:48:36,266
I was. Once

497
00:48:37,268 --> 00:48:42,189
The first cop was a softie.
The second was called Novotny

498
00:48:42,273 --> 00:48:45,025
He was sharp as a razor

499
00:48:45,109 --> 00:48:48,487
Mark my words, they’ll pounce

500
00:48:48,571 --> 00:48:52,449
And they’ll grind you down,
Mr Louka

501
00:49:25,191 --> 00:49:32,865
When my old mother
rocked my cradle.. .

502
00:49:36,911 --> 00:49:42,499
. . .she taught me to sing.. .

503
00:50:22,749 --> 00:50:26,543
Mr Louka,
you didn’t put up the flags

504
00:50:26,628 --> 00:50:29,504
You said you’d do it

505
00:50:29,589 --> 00:50:34,718
I’ve been too busy. I’m doing
concerts every day for the workers

506
00:50:34,802 --> 00:50:39,640
You’re the only one who
didn’t do it. All the others did

507
00:50:39,724 --> 00:50:43,143
What a nice little boy.
Who are you?

508
00:50:43,227 --> 00:50:46,104
He’s my nephew

509
00:50:46,272 --> 00:50:47,981
What’s your name?

510
00:50:48,066 --> 00:50:50,317
He won’t talk, he’s terribly shy

511
00:50:50,401 --> 00:50:56,698
I don’t care about the flags but
you’re drawing attention to yourself

512
00:51:01,537 --> 00:51:03,580
I’m a coward

513
00:51:04,999 --> 00:51:06,792
Last year.. .

514
00:51:07,335 --> 00:51:11,463
. . . I didn’t give a damn
and it was okay

515
00:51:11,547 --> 00:51:16,468
But we mustn’t upset them
now we’re in the shit

516
00:51:16,678 --> 00:51:19,554
Ours - yours

517
00:51:20,682 --> 00:51:22,599
What was that?

518
00:51:22,684 --> 00:51:23,976
Ours

519
00:51:24,143 --> 00:51:25,477
Yours

520
00:51:26,145 --> 00:51:30,273
So you can understand
when you want to

521
00:51:30,566 --> 00:51:34,277
The thing is, we put up your flag
because we have to

522
00:51:34,362 --> 00:51:37,906
Once we put it up in gratitude

523
00:51:38,116 --> 00:51:42,703
But that was before we realised
that you Russians are scoundrels

524
00:51:42,787 --> 00:51:48,125
You understand? No, you don’t.
You lot take up too much room

525
00:51:48,251 --> 00:51:51,837
Wherever you march, you stay

526
00:51:52,046 --> 00:51:56,675
But not you,
you’ll go back to your aunt

527
00:51:56,759 --> 00:52:01,513
The moment she’s better, I’ll pack
Your chemodan and you’ll be off

528
00:52:06,310 --> 00:52:08,145
Chemodan

529
00:52:08,271 --> 00:52:13,775
That’s all the Russian I know
because they stole mine in Moscow

530
00:52:13,860 --> 00:52:17,779
You steal suitcases and territory

531
00:52:18,197 --> 00:52:20,741
Ours is beautiful

532
00:52:20,825 --> 00:52:26,121
What’s beautiful about it?
It’s just red like your underpants

533
00:52:26,205 --> 00:52:29,291
-Ours is beautiful
-No, ours is

534
00:52:29,584 --> 00:52:32,544
Oh, you don’t know anything

535
00:52:32,628 --> 00:52:35,088
Look what I bought you

536
00:52:35,423 --> 00:52:37,716
A Russian egg

537
00:52:38,217 --> 00:52:40,218
Some Czech hens. . .

538
00:52:40,303 --> 00:52:44,056
. . .lay Russian eggs
without knowing it

539
00:52:48,102 --> 00:52:49,728
Grandma!

540
00:52:52,065 --> 00:52:55,192
Hello.
I’ve come for my lesson

541
00:52:56,819 --> 00:52:59,196
-It’s a bad day?
-Not at all

542
00:52:59,322 --> 00:53:02,491
It’s just that I’ve a ‘visitor’

543
00:53:03,826 --> 00:53:06,912
He’s your little boy?

544
00:53:07,205 --> 00:53:09,498
-A grandson?
-Of course not

545
00:53:09,582 --> 00:53:15,378
I’m babysitting for a colleague.
The boy is Russian

546
00:53:18,216 --> 00:53:19,841
Hello

547
00:53:21,052 --> 00:53:24,513
-What’s your name?
-Kolya

548
00:53:32,563 --> 00:53:34,439
Shall I begin?

549
00:54:00,758 --> 00:54:04,678
We’ll put the light on
so you’re not scared

550
00:54:05,721 --> 00:54:08,557
And here’s a steamboat

551
00:55:31,849 --> 00:55:34,309
Ours is beautiful

552
00:55:35,394 --> 00:55:38,897
So you did put
the flags up after all!

553
00:56:05,258 --> 00:56:08,385
Nurse, take the child out

554
00:56:08,844 --> 00:56:11,471
Am I going to see Grandma?

555
00:56:14,642 --> 00:56:18,103
She died yesterday.
At seven a.m.

556
00:56:19,647 --> 00:56:21,815
You’re her. . . what?

557
00:56:22,191 --> 00:56:25,318
Nothing. Just an acquaintance

558
00:56:26,070 --> 00:56:29,030
There was nobody
to take her things

559
00:56:29,699 --> 00:56:33,451
Dressing gown,
teeth, spectacles, watch. ..

560
00:56:43,045 --> 00:56:45,255
Where’s Grandma?

561
00:56:46,549 --> 00:56:49,551
Grandma is asleep

562
00:56:49,677 --> 00:56:52,470
We mustn’t wake her

563
00:57:11,574 --> 00:57:16,286
Write to the Welfare Office
and have him put into care

564
00:57:16,704 --> 00:57:20,165
Say you’re his stepfather.
His mother has left.. .

565
00:57:20,833 --> 00:57:23,877
. . .and you can’t look after him

566
00:57:25,338 --> 00:57:28,715
He can’t stay here

567
00:57:28,841 --> 00:57:32,218
-Look what he’s drawn
-A coffin, isn’t it?

568
00:57:32,428 --> 00:57:35,638
It’s not a bad drawing

569
00:57:36,599 --> 00:57:39,851
Gentlemen, the dead won’t wait

570
00:58:26,190 --> 00:58:28,942
Are you his dad or his grandad?

571
00:58:29,860 --> 00:58:31,444
His grandad

572
00:58:31,612 --> 00:58:37,450
Fill in these forms
and send them to Comrade Zubata

573
00:58:38,035 --> 00:58:41,538
-And when do you think. . .?
-I can’t say

574
00:59:01,684 --> 00:59:07,313
I don’t understand.
You say the boy is from Yugoslavia

575
00:59:08,149 --> 00:59:12,193
His parents let him
come to you just like that?

576
00:59:13,487 --> 00:59:16,573
So he’d see the Czech countryside

577
00:59:17,867 --> 00:59:22,871
And why is he called Kolya?
Isn’t that a Russian name?

578
00:59:24,123 --> 00:59:28,460
Kolya is the same as Nikolai
in Jugoslav

579
00:59:33,591 --> 00:59:36,843
Couldn’t he spend a few days here?

580
00:59:36,927 --> 00:59:38,261
Who?

581
00:59:39,346 --> 00:59:41,473
He’s pale

582
00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:45,477
He needs fresh air and
he’d be company for you

583
00:59:45,561 --> 00:59:51,274
What’s the world coming to? Parents
leaving their kids just anywhere

584
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:58,573
People with a career in music
shouldn’t have children

585
00:59:58,824 --> 01:00:04,120
Like you. It should be
either music or a family

586
01:00:04,205 --> 01:00:06,539
How long would it be for?

587
01:01:02,763 --> 01:01:05,890
You see them? Always driving. . .

588
01:01:06,225 --> 01:01:08,768
.. .back and forth

589
01:01:13,732 --> 01:01:16,150
Our soldiers

590
01:01:16,277 --> 01:01:19,112
No, not yours. They’re Russian

591
01:01:19,196 --> 01:01:21,698
Look, the king

592
01:01:21,907 --> 01:01:25,118
Russians. Russian soldiers

593
01:01:26,620 --> 01:01:28,580
What’s he saying?

594
01:01:28,789 --> 01:01:34,919
I don’t know. Maybe they
remind him of Yugoslav soldiers

595
01:01:35,170 --> 01:01:38,006
Here, Kolya, it’s almost ready

596
01:02:10,247 --> 01:02:13,166
You lied to me. He’s Russian

597
01:02:13,292 --> 01:02:15,501
Yes, I lied to you

598
01:02:15,919 --> 01:02:18,671
How could you do it?

599
01:02:19,006 --> 01:02:22,925
Mother, not all Russians are alike

600
01:02:25,429 --> 01:02:27,555
We’re not at home

601
01:02:28,974 --> 01:02:32,268
But he saw me come in

602
01:02:34,355 --> 01:02:38,232
May we wash our hands?

603
01:02:38,359 --> 01:02:42,070
-You want to wash your hands?
-The water’s off

604
01:02:43,072 --> 01:02:45,281
Water cut off

605
01:02:45,574 --> 01:02:47,492
Water off?

606
01:02:47,576 --> 01:02:50,953
Burst pipe somewhere

607
01:02:51,830 --> 01:02:54,957
Never mind. Goodbye

608
01:02:58,962 --> 01:03:01,047
It’s running

609
01:03:01,340 --> 01:03:04,092
The water’s not off

610
01:03:04,468 --> 01:03:07,762
I’m not having a Russian child here

611
01:03:08,347 --> 01:03:14,102
Come along, we’ll go and see
uncle Ruzicka. You’ll like it there

612
01:03:15,062 --> 01:03:20,274
Fancy lying to your own mother.
Vic would never do that

613
01:03:20,734 --> 01:03:25,822
First you show no interest in
children and then it’s a Russian!

614
01:04:00,190 --> 01:04:01,941
Come and look

615
01:04:05,863 --> 01:04:09,449
-What’s happening in Prague?
-Same as here

616
01:04:09,658 --> 01:04:14,829
There’s this soothsayer who predicts
it will all collapse this year

617
01:04:14,913 --> 01:04:17,582
They’ve said that for 40 years

618
01:04:17,666 --> 01:04:25,173
He’s had this vision.
There were Communists buying. . .

619
01:04:25,591 --> 01:04:28,050
. . .rods of gold

620
01:04:28,135 --> 01:04:32,680
They were rushing off
in great hordes to Russia

621
01:04:33,849 --> 01:04:38,311
But Gorbachev took their rods. . .

622
01:04:39,146 --> 01:04:41,981
. ..and used them to flog
their backsides

623
01:04:42,065 --> 01:04:46,027
He said ‘‘Leave the gold here
and go back home’’

624
01:04:46,445 --> 01:04:49,238
But nobody wanted them
any more

625
01:04:49,323 --> 01:04:53,409
The young people and nurses
rebelled against them

626
01:04:53,494 --> 01:04:57,038
So they chased them out. . .

627
01:04:57,206 --> 01:05:00,291
. . .and set up colonies for them
in Albania. . .

628
01:05:00,375 --> 01:05:03,294
. ..like Red Indian reservations

629
01:05:03,378 --> 01:05:05,880
What a vision!

630
01:05:06,048 --> 01:05:08,758
Why did the nurses rebel?

631
01:05:08,842 --> 01:05:10,718
I’ve no idea

632
01:05:24,858 --> 01:05:26,901
Our people?

633
01:05:28,028 --> 01:05:30,071
Yes, yours

634
01:05:31,532 --> 01:05:34,116
Going to Moscow?

635
01:05:36,745 --> 01:05:39,413
No, they’re here to stay

636
01:05:39,623 --> 01:05:43,084
They just go back and forth

637
01:05:43,335 --> 01:05:46,295
Do they live here?

638
01:05:47,172 --> 01:05:50,007
Unfortunately, they do

639
01:05:53,053 --> 01:05:55,888
Just like me

640
01:06:14,408 --> 01:06:18,202
The shows’s off. We had
the Russian kids yesterday. . .

641
01:06:18,287 --> 01:06:21,080
. . .but today there’s nobody

642
01:06:21,373 --> 01:06:24,667
The show’s off. Come along

643
01:06:31,717 --> 01:06:34,802
How big an audience do you need?

644
01:06:34,887 --> 01:06:37,889
At least five.
But this is a Russian film

645
01:06:37,973 --> 01:06:41,267
‘Angelika’ is on tomorrow

646
01:06:41,894 --> 01:06:44,478
Give me five tickets

647
01:06:44,563 --> 01:06:48,608
Mr Lansky, don’t go.
We’re doing a performance

648
01:06:50,193 --> 01:06:51,611
Hi, Franta

649
01:07:25,646 --> 01:07:27,980
Where’s my grandma?

650
01:07:28,065 --> 01:07:30,191
She’s asleep

651
01:07:36,198 --> 01:07:39,909
Mr Louka, registered letter for you

652
01:07:40,410 --> 01:07:44,956
I signed so you wouldn’t have to go
to the post office

653
01:07:46,041 --> 01:07:47,959
Just fancy!

654
01:07:48,043 --> 01:07:52,463
Our building came second
in the decorationg competition

655
01:07:52,756 --> 01:07:56,842
But for that stupid fellow Pech,
we’d have been first

656
01:07:56,927 --> 01:08:02,098
It’s from the police.
Probably a parking ticket

657
01:08:03,433 --> 01:08:07,687
Now you’ll have
to go and see them, I suppose

658
01:08:33,171 --> 01:08:35,715
I’m Pokorny.
You’ll be Mr Louka

659
01:08:37,843 --> 01:08:41,262
-How come. ..?
-I couldn’t leave him

660
01:08:41,346 --> 01:08:45,975
But during the interrogation. ..
Comrade, take care of this child

661
01:08:46,059 --> 01:08:49,395
He’ll bawl his head off

662
01:08:50,480 --> 01:08:54,233
This is most unusual

663
01:08:58,030 --> 01:09:02,867
-You’ve no kids?
-Yes, but I don’t take them to work

664
01:09:05,037 --> 01:09:08,080
Maybe I could ask Jitka. . .

665
01:09:34,232 --> 01:09:39,278
Jitka, look after this boy.
Use Kopecky’s office

666
01:09:44,743 --> 01:09:48,162
Go and play with auntie

667
01:09:49,206 --> 01:09:52,291
He won’t go with strangers

668
01:09:52,584 --> 01:09:55,211
-How old is he?
-Five

669
01:09:55,504 --> 01:10:00,049
He only speaks Russian.
Can’t he stay?

670
01:10:00,258 --> 01:10:04,845
If you’ve some paper
and a pencil, he’ll draw

671
01:10:11,478 --> 01:10:14,021
Sit down, Mr Louka

672
01:10:15,941 --> 01:10:19,777
You wouldn’t have any crayons?
He prefers colours

673
01:10:20,403 --> 01:10:23,906
So you decided to marry, Mr Louka?

674
01:10:24,074 --> 01:10:29,203
Well, well, how surprising.
A confirmed bachelor like you. ..

675
01:10:29,329 --> 01:10:32,206
.. .suddenly, at fifty-five!

676
01:10:32,332 --> 01:10:37,211
Yes, a man can go off the rails
even at my age

677
01:10:37,796 --> 01:10:43,342
Well, she’s very young and pretty

678
01:10:43,552 --> 01:10:48,264
-Love works in strange ways.
-You know how it is

679
01:10:48,348 --> 01:10:51,392
Where did you meet?

680
01:10:51,726 --> 01:10:55,062
-In a restaurant
-Which one?

681
01:10:55,605 --> 01:10:58,566
It was the Malostranska café

682
01:10:59,901 --> 01:11:04,446
She was sitting alone
and there was no other table free

683
01:11:05,615 --> 01:11:08,492
-We got talking
-You speak Russian?

684
01:11:08,952 --> 01:11:12,746
Only a few words.
From school

685
01:11:14,457 --> 01:11:16,792
-Your cigarette. . .
-Want one?

686
01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:21,046
-No. It fell out
-That’s always happening

687
01:11:22,924 --> 01:11:24,341
Very nice

688
01:11:24,426 --> 01:11:28,012
He draws well. That violin. . .

689
01:11:28,096 --> 01:11:30,264
Cello. It has a spike

690
01:11:30,348 --> 01:11:34,185
You’re right.
A violinist might stab himself

691
01:11:34,603 --> 01:11:37,646
My kid doesn’t draw as well

692
01:11:37,898 --> 01:11:40,524
-What’s his name?
-Radek, after my wife

693
01:11:40,609 --> 01:11:43,944
-She has a man’s name?
-No, it’s Radka really

694
01:11:47,657 --> 01:11:49,491
How’s it going?

695
01:11:49,576 --> 01:11:52,328
Captain Novotny, Mr Louka

696
01:11:59,044 --> 01:12:06,675
My dear man, you seem to have
a bad influence on your family

697
01:12:08,678 --> 01:12:13,641
Your brother emigrates,
your wife emigrates.. .

698
01:12:15,477 --> 01:12:19,730
You didn’t live together
very long, did you?

699
01:12:20,440 --> 01:12:23,400
Nobody saw her at your place

700
01:12:24,277 --> 01:12:27,196
We lived together for a few days. . .

701
01:12:27,447 --> 01:12:31,617
. . .but she only spoke Russian
and me Czech

702
01:12:32,994 --> 01:12:37,581
Surely you were aware of that
before the wedding?

703
01:12:38,500 --> 01:12:43,545
Of course. But there were
other problems as well

704
01:12:44,547 --> 01:12:50,261
She kept opening the windows.
She was so used to Siberian winters

705
01:12:53,765 --> 01:12:57,268
So we decided we’d live apart

706
01:12:58,603 --> 01:13:01,981
Okay, you’ve had your fun

707
01:13:02,190 --> 01:13:06,819
Now spit it out. How much
were you paid, you jerk?

708
01:13:06,903 --> 01:13:09,571
Isn’t that a bit familiar?

709
01:13:09,739 --> 01:13:12,741
I’ll be as familiar as I like

710
01:13:12,993 --> 01:13:18,289
I call a jailbird anything I choose
And that’s what you’ll be

711
01:13:18,415 --> 01:13:20,749
I asked you a question

712
01:13:20,834 --> 01:13:24,169
-Comrade, take this child
-We tried

713
01:13:28,967 --> 01:13:31,593
How did you buy a car?

714
01:13:31,678 --> 01:13:35,222
I saved up and borrowed the rest

715
01:13:35,307 --> 01:13:37,224
From whom?

716
01:13:38,018 --> 01:13:41,729
My colleague Parizek and Mr Broz

717
01:13:43,023 --> 01:13:46,400
Did Nadezda Bilyukovova tell you
she planned to emigrate?

718
01:13:46,484 --> 01:13:48,360
That caught me out

719
01:13:48,903 --> 01:13:52,573
And her son,
that caught you out too?

720
01:13:52,699 --> 01:13:54,116
Absolutely

721
01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:57,119
What will you do with him?

722
01:13:58,079 --> 01:14:04,168
I don’t know. Maybe I’ll keep him
now he’s mine in law

723
01:14:04,711 --> 01:14:07,588
Look here, my dear man

724
01:14:08,631 --> 01:14:12,051
This marriage was a put-up job

725
01:14:12,677 --> 01:14:16,972
Tell your fairy tale about
falling in love to someone else

726
01:14:17,057 --> 01:14:22,770
And don’t think you’ll be playing
with the Philharmonic much longer

727
01:14:23,021 --> 01:14:27,524
You’ll be lucky to fiddle at
funerals. We’ll make sure of that

728
01:14:27,609 --> 01:14:30,486
HE DOES FUNERALS ALREADY !

729
01:14:30,737 --> 01:14:33,989
Why not try to save your skin?

730
01:14:34,074 --> 01:14:37,326
Tell us who
arranged the wedding

731
01:14:37,410 --> 01:14:40,245
and how much you’ve got for it

732
01:14:41,206 --> 01:14:45,042
This won’t be the last time we meet.

733
01:14:45,168 --> 01:14:47,920
Go back home,
and have a good think

734
01:14:48,004 --> 01:14:53,467
Then maybe you’ll come back
and see us before we send for you

735
01:14:56,137 --> 01:14:57,805
Well, that’s it

736
01:14:58,306 --> 01:15:00,391
That’s it. . .

737
01:15:00,934 --> 01:15:02,643
. ..my dear man

738
01:15:02,852 --> 01:15:06,897
Two or three more interrogations
and you’ll be speaking Czech

739
01:15:43,601 --> 01:15:46,645
-If it isn’t Marketa!
-Mischa

740
01:15:46,771 --> 01:15:48,522
Of course

741
01:15:57,407 --> 01:16:04,163
-And what are you doing?
-I play in a sort of ensemble

742
01:16:20,013 --> 01:16:21,597
Jesus, the boy!

743
01:16:21,848 --> 01:16:22,973
Excuse me

744
01:16:57,217 --> 01:17:02,554
A small boy is lost on Line B.
His name is.. .

745
01:17:03,515 --> 01:17:08,644
Kolya. He should be taken to
the guard at any station

746
01:17:08,937 --> 01:17:13,774
Kolya, don’t worry and don’t run off

747
01:17:15,026 --> 01:17:19,613
Stay in the metro
and we’ll find you

748
01:17:20,949 --> 01:17:22,991
End of message

749
01:19:07,055 --> 01:19:08,805
Kolya!

750
01:19:20,568 --> 01:19:22,861
What a fright you gave me

751
01:19:26,074 --> 01:19:28,909
She was wailing down the telephone

752
01:19:29,494 --> 01:19:33,705
-What she said?
-’’Kolya, my darling baby’’

753
01:19:34,290 --> 01:19:39,878
When I said her aunt was dead, she
wanted to get on a train right away

754
01:19:40,296 --> 01:19:43,048
But I talked the idiot out of it

755
01:19:43,132 --> 01:19:47,469
I told her they’d send her
straight to Siberia

756
01:19:47,762 --> 01:19:52,265
-And the Red Cross?
-She’s applied for the boy

757
01:19:52,433 --> 01:19:57,145
And there are international
agreements on mothers and kids

758
01:19:57,689 --> 01:20:00,232
She sends you her greetings

759
01:20:00,316 --> 01:20:02,275
Charming of her

760
01:20:19,794 --> 01:20:21,753
Hello, Grandma

761
01:20:23,256 --> 01:20:25,716
It’s me, Kolya

762
01:20:35,977 --> 01:20:40,647
We went to see you
but you were asleep

763
01:20:41,315 --> 01:20:44,901
Please come back, Grandma

764
01:20:54,829 --> 01:20:58,165
Come on out.

765
01:21:00,835 --> 01:21:02,919
Come along

766
01:21:06,424 --> 01:21:09,259
Zuzi? It’s Louka

767
01:21:09,510 --> 01:21:14,264
I suddenly felt so lonely
and guess who I. ..?

768
01:21:15,433 --> 01:21:19,269
Can you speak?
He’s in the country?

769
01:21:20,062 --> 01:21:22,147
Lucky you

770
01:21:22,273 --> 01:21:26,860
Oh, in the lavatory!
He takes his time, doesn’t he?

771
01:21:26,986 --> 01:21:30,822
Listen, I’m looking after
a Russian kid

772
01:21:30,907 --> 01:21:36,495
Russian. Belongs to a violinist from
Leningrad. He can’t get to sleep

773
01:21:36,871 --> 01:21:42,292
You teach Russian.
Could you read him a story?

774
01:21:43,669 --> 01:21:46,213
Anything. He’s five

775
01:21:46,506 --> 01:21:49,508
Go and find something. I’ll wait

776
01:21:50,343 --> 01:21:53,011
She’s a teacher

777
01:21:54,847 --> 01:21:56,765
A fairy tale

778
01:21:58,976 --> 01:22:03,146
‘The Eagle and the Lamb’.
Fantastic! I’ll pass you over

779
01:22:08,528 --> 01:22:11,196
Yes, Kolya Bilyukov

780
01:22:11,531 --> 01:22:14,533
No, I’m not scared of eagles

781
01:22:15,159 --> 01:22:19,579
High on a Caucasian mountain peak
lived an eagle

782
01:22:20,623 --> 01:22:26,211
One day he flew so high
he reached a star

783
01:22:27,296 --> 01:22:30,590
On that star,
there was a little house

784
01:22:31,050 --> 01:22:35,428
In the house, lived an old sheep
and her lamb

785
01:22:36,138 --> 01:22:40,058
‘‘I’ve come to visit you’’
said the eagle

786
01:22:40,810 --> 01:22:44,604
‘‘I’ve come to see how you live’’

787
01:22:48,192 --> 01:22:50,694
Lovely

788
01:22:59,203 --> 01:23:01,079
Thanks, Zuzi

789
01:23:03,040 --> 01:23:05,625
You left them here?

790
01:23:06,002 --> 01:23:08,211
Black lace ones?

791
01:23:08,504 --> 01:23:11,298
And you went home without them!

792
01:23:11,424 --> 01:23:15,010
No, I’d have found them

793
01:23:16,178 --> 01:23:21,558
I’d like to see you too, Zuzi,
but I can’t right now. I’ll call you

794
01:23:22,059 --> 01:23:23,602
Bye.

795
01:24:00,222 --> 01:24:01,765
Hello

796
01:24:04,143 --> 01:24:06,394
What’s your name?

797
01:24:07,772 --> 01:24:10,190
My name’s Kolya

798
01:24:12,193 --> 01:24:14,611
Do you want some bread?

799
01:24:15,321 --> 01:24:17,489
Go away

800
01:24:17,823 --> 01:24:20,617
Stop feeding the pigeons

801
01:24:25,957 --> 01:24:27,832
And shut the window

802
01:25:15,756 --> 01:25:20,385
Through pastures green. ..

803
01:25:21,053 --> 01:25:24,347
.. .He leadeth me. . .

804
01:25:24,432 --> 01:25:28,727
.. .the quiet waters by

805
01:26:00,134 --> 01:26:03,762
What are you playing?

806
01:26:04,096 --> 01:26:06,556
I’m doing your job

807
01:26:18,319 --> 01:26:19,652
That’s enough

808
01:27:01,112 --> 01:27:03,613
We’re up as high as the birds

809
01:27:03,697 --> 01:27:05,740
As high as the birds

810
01:27:28,973 --> 01:27:31,307
His mummy isn’t at home?

811
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:34,811
She’s abroad at the moment

812
01:27:37,606 --> 01:27:39,816
He must have antibiotics

813
01:27:40,317 --> 01:27:44,195
Every four hours.
Set your alarm clock

814
01:27:44,780 --> 01:27:48,283
With a quarter aspirin.
You have some?

815
01:27:49,076 --> 01:27:50,493
Yes

816
01:27:52,371 --> 01:27:55,665
There’s a danger of meningitis

817
01:27:55,833 --> 01:28:00,628
If the fever continues, apply
cold compresses. You can do that?

818
01:28:00,838 --> 01:28:03,006
Yes, of course

819
01:28:03,591 --> 01:28:07,260
-Will your wife be away long?
-Possibly

820
01:28:08,012 --> 01:28:11,890
You’ll need a note for your employer

821
01:28:12,016 --> 01:28:13,600
I guess.

822
01:29:19,667 --> 01:29:22,085
It will feel a bit cold

823
01:29:22,711 --> 01:29:26,297
Hold on, it’s going to be all right

824
01:29:29,551 --> 01:29:31,594
You’ll be all right now

825
01:29:31,679 --> 01:29:36,432
Klara, I’m sorry about
calling you out so late

826
01:29:36,558 --> 01:29:37,809
That’s okay

827
01:29:37,893 --> 01:29:41,938
No, really, I mean it.
Good night now

828
01:29:42,189 --> 01:29:46,442
No need to say good night.
I’m staying till the morning

829
01:29:46,819 --> 01:29:49,487
And what will you say at home?

830
01:29:50,030 --> 01:29:54,617
That an old flame of mine
had a child

831
01:29:55,369 --> 01:29:57,829
And he couldn’t cope

832
01:30:05,087 --> 01:30:09,382
A magpie or a jay.
They steal shiny things

833
01:30:12,928 --> 01:30:17,098
You’re right.
Nobody thought of that

834
01:30:18,517 --> 01:30:22,895
It’s still beautiful,
even if it has no value

835
01:30:26,150 --> 01:30:29,485
When I said
we couldn’t have children.. .

836
01:30:30,321 --> 01:30:35,825
. . . I didn’t mean that I can’t.
You must have misunderstood

837
01:30:40,289 --> 01:30:43,916
When is he supposed to take
his next pill?

838
01:30:44,043 --> 01:30:47,378
At five. I set the alarm

839
01:30:52,092 --> 01:30:55,261
You’re less selfish than I thought

840
01:30:55,346 --> 01:30:59,557
I never imagined you’d worry like
this about someone else’s child

841
01:31:01,935 --> 01:31:05,521
Neither did I

842
01:31:10,861 --> 01:31:15,615
Weren’t you afraid to make
that fake marriage?

843
01:31:16,825 --> 01:31:19,535
You a dissident, of all people

844
01:31:19,620 --> 01:31:22,372
I am not a dissident

845
01:31:23,457 --> 01:31:27,293
I’ve just been punished
for my own stupidity

846
01:31:27,586 --> 01:31:31,422
They used to let me go to the West

847
01:31:33,008 --> 01:31:36,177
One time, the Party officer said. . .

848
01:31:36,261 --> 01:31:40,264
‘‘Your brother has emigrated
but we trust you’’

849
01:31:40,808 --> 01:31:45,561
When I returned,
I had to fill in the usual forms

850
01:31:45,729 --> 01:31:51,275
One of the questions was ‘‘Did you
meet an emigré?’’ I wrote yes

851
01:31:51,860 --> 01:31:56,322
Then it said ‘‘State in detail
what you discussed’’

852
01:31:56,407 --> 01:32:00,326
I wrote ‘‘The usual shit,
Comrade Blaha’’

853
01:32:00,911 --> 01:32:02,662
Is that all?

854
01:32:02,746 --> 01:32:05,665
I guess he felt hurt

855
01:32:05,749 --> 01:32:09,293
And I thought you’d done
something heroic!

856
01:32:09,378 --> 01:32:12,630
Bit of a let-down, isn’t it?

857
01:32:15,968 --> 01:32:18,553
But you did it so nicely

858
01:32:29,648 --> 01:32:32,442
I want you to have this

859
01:32:51,545 --> 01:32:55,631
Lovely.
And you’ve stopped drawing coffins

860
01:32:56,008 --> 01:32:59,302
Story by telephone

861
01:33:03,724 --> 01:33:06,184
You’d like a story?

862
01:33:06,268 --> 01:33:10,688
Good. Let’s call the teacher auntie

863
01:33:11,231 --> 01:33:20,364
Could I have the one about
the eagle? I liked that one

864
01:33:25,871 --> 01:33:29,790
It was the uncle.
He’s no good at stories

865
01:33:31,460 --> 01:33:34,837
We’ll have to manage alone

866
01:33:39,593 --> 01:33:43,763
Once upon a time, there was
a grandpa and a grandma

867
01:33:44,306 --> 01:33:47,183
A grandpa and a grandma

868
01:33:48,018 --> 01:33:53,105
They had a grandson
who was called Budulinek

869
01:33:55,484 --> 01:33:59,237
One day Grandma said
‘‘Budulinek, my dear

870
01:33:59,446 --> 01:34:05,076
‘‘We’re going to the woods.
You will be here on your own

871
01:34:05,869 --> 01:34:10,164
‘‘Don’t open the door to
anyone at all’’

872
01:34:10,249 --> 01:34:13,417
Don’t open the door

873
01:34:13,961 --> 01:34:17,713
That’s it. And so they left

874
01:35:24,948 --> 01:35:27,074
We had otters once

875
01:35:27,159 --> 01:35:29,368
What’s otters?

876
01:35:29,661 --> 01:35:32,413
You keep asking ‘‘What’s that?’’

877
01:35:32,497 --> 01:35:36,709
It’s an animal about this big
with whiskers like me

878
01:35:38,128 --> 01:35:41,213
It eats trout

879
01:35:41,673 --> 01:35:43,633
What’s trout?

880
01:35:43,800 --> 01:35:45,301
A fish

881
01:35:45,510 --> 01:35:47,511
Fish!

882
01:35:48,013 --> 01:35:51,807
But because the water is
poisoned now by acid rain.. .

883
01:35:51,892 --> 01:35:54,935
- you won’t understand
and nor do I -

884
01:35:55,270 --> 01:35:57,855
. . .the fish died

885
01:35:57,981 --> 01:36:00,024
Fish kaput?

886
01:36:00,651 --> 01:36:03,986
So the otters died too

887
01:36:04,780 --> 01:36:06,947
The otters are kaput too?

888
01:36:07,032 --> 01:36:10,743
So now you have a River Otter. ..

889
01:36:11,078 --> 01:36:14,121
. . .with no otters in it

890
01:36:18,293 --> 01:36:20,378
Oh, my God!

891
01:36:28,428 --> 01:36:32,348
Some East German bloke
is celebrating his birthday

892
01:36:34,059 --> 01:36:36,477
What’s a birthday?

893
01:36:36,687 --> 01:36:39,897
That’s the day he was born

894
01:36:40,440 --> 01:36:44,694
And when am I going to have
a birthday?

895
01:36:44,778 --> 01:36:47,279
When were you born?

896
01:36:48,657 --> 01:36:51,492
You’re five but when were you born?

897
01:36:51,576 --> 01:36:53,369
I don’t know

898
01:36:53,453 --> 01:36:58,416
Then it’s a bit difficult,
isn’t it?

899
01:37:10,137 --> 01:37:11,971
‘Night, Dad

900
01:37:14,015 --> 01:37:15,933
‘Night

901
01:37:31,199 --> 01:37:34,702
Happy birthday.. .

902
01:37:39,332 --> 01:37:44,253
The main thing is
you’re healthy and happy

903
01:37:50,260 --> 01:37:52,553
What’s in it?

904
01:38:04,399 --> 01:38:07,651
Fantastic!

905
01:38:07,778 --> 01:38:10,529
Why must you live at the top?

906
01:38:10,614 --> 01:38:13,532
I’m from the Department of
Social Security

907
01:38:13,617 --> 01:38:20,456
You sent us an application regarding
this boy some time back

908
01:38:21,041 --> 01:38:24,376
We’ve only just got round to it

909
01:38:24,836 --> 01:38:29,048
In the meantime,
we’ve sorted things out

910
01:38:29,132 --> 01:38:32,718
You play at night, don’t you?

911
01:38:32,803 --> 01:38:35,846
No, only during the day now

912
01:38:36,723 --> 01:38:39,850
-Where does the boy sleep?
-Over there

913
01:38:45,106 --> 01:38:47,566
He doesn’t have his own bed?

914
01:38:47,651 --> 01:38:50,945
No, but there’s enough room. . .

915
01:38:54,866 --> 01:38:57,076
So it’s the boy’s birthday?

916
01:38:57,410 --> 01:39:02,373
Not really. But I don’t have
his papers

917
01:39:04,835 --> 01:39:10,256
I wrote that application
when I wasn’t coping very well

918
01:39:10,340 --> 01:39:12,383
The boy is Russian?

919
01:39:14,469 --> 01:39:16,303
Not now, my dear

920
01:39:16,388 --> 01:39:19,014
He understands Czech now

921
01:39:19,099 --> 01:39:24,520
His mother went to the West
and shows no interest in the boy

922
01:39:24,604 --> 01:39:28,649
That’s untrue.
She applied to the Red Cross

923
01:39:28,984 --> 01:39:31,902
-Look, Mr Mouka
-Louka

924
01:39:33,488 --> 01:39:38,909
Czech nationality by marriage. . .

925
01:39:39,077 --> 01:39:42,246
.. .she is still a Russian

926
01:39:42,372 --> 01:39:46,292
So the Russian authorities still
have an interest in this child

927
01:39:46,376 --> 01:39:50,462
The matter may well be
taken out of our hands

928
01:39:51,882 --> 01:39:55,968
They’ll probably put him in a home

929
01:39:56,469 --> 01:39:58,929
That’s my opinion

930
01:39:59,180 --> 01:40:05,644
Miss Zubata, that letter of mine. ..
couldn’t it be declared void?

931
01:40:05,729 --> 01:40:10,232
Why? They’ll take care of the boy

932
01:40:10,567 --> 01:40:13,110
I’ll be back, Mr Mouka

933
01:40:16,990 --> 01:40:21,827
Next time, I’ll bring someone
from the Russian embassy.. .

934
01:40:22,871 --> 01:40:25,998
. ..and they can take over

935
01:40:26,583 --> 01:40:28,626
A nice little boy

936
01:40:29,544 --> 01:40:31,629
Goodbye for now

937
01:40:51,483 --> 01:40:52,691
Chemodan?

938
01:40:52,776 --> 01:40:57,279
Yes, before Miss Zubata
comes to get us

939
01:41:19,970 --> 01:41:22,638
Franta! What’up?

940
01:41:22,847 --> 01:41:25,349
Can you put us up?

941
01:41:25,433 --> 01:41:27,518
But of course

942
01:41:28,269 --> 01:41:31,230
These springs are a bit ropey. . .

943
01:41:31,314 --> 01:41:35,609
. . .but, held down by this blanket,
they should be all right

944
01:41:36,111 --> 01:41:41,198
This is Uncle Houdek
but you’ll say Goudek, I suppose

945
01:41:44,577 --> 01:41:50,833
A great power, yet they
can’t say the letter H!

946
01:41:54,921 --> 01:42:00,926
I’ll enjoy hiding you. It’ll be
my way of joining the resistance

947
01:42:01,636 --> 01:42:05,514
-Will your conductor take me on?
-Definitely.

948
01:42:05,682 --> 01:42:11,228
Though he’ll wonder why you
want to play on a bandstand

949
01:42:11,312 --> 01:42:15,691
We’ll tell him. . .
I know, I’ve a great idea

950
01:42:15,775 --> 01:42:19,528
You’re convalescing
after a gall-bladder operation

951
01:42:19,612 --> 01:42:22,865
We’ll have you drinking the waters

952
01:42:25,118 --> 01:42:27,828
Illegal activity. Great!

953
01:42:54,189 --> 01:42:57,816
The police blocked
the central streets. ..

954
01:42:57,901 --> 01:43:00,861
. . .so there was no escape

955
01:43:02,280 --> 01:43:05,866
Students, when faced
with the riot police.. .

956
01:43:05,950 --> 01:43:12,247
. . .sang the national anthemn.
They were savagely attacked. . .

957
01:43:12,373 --> 01:43:17,002
Franta, I think the whole thing
has collapsed

958
01:43:17,796 --> 01:43:19,379
Just because. ..

959
01:43:19,464 --> 01:43:21,215
Shut up!

960
01:43:21,299 --> 01:43:29,598
Prague’s university students call
on everyone to demonstrate

961
01:43:30,391 --> 01:43:35,354
It’s a pity we joined the resistance
so late. It’s boiled over!

962
01:43:35,438 --> 01:43:39,525
We should be there, Franta.
It’s come at last

963
01:43:52,455 --> 01:43:58,669
At last. At last!

964
01:44:24,195 --> 01:44:27,656
Nobody wanted them any more

965
01:44:27,991 --> 01:44:31,618
The young people
and the nurses rebelled

966
01:44:31,703 --> 01:44:34,204
They chased them out. . .

967
01:44:34,289 --> 01:44:37,291
. . .and set up a reservation
for them in Albania

968
01:44:37,375 --> 01:44:39,793
What a vision!

969
01:45:15,872 --> 01:45:18,165
There’s your mummy

970
01:45:23,922 --> 01:45:25,839
Come along

971
01:45:49,364 --> 01:45:53,533
I can’t thank you enough

972
01:46:20,520 --> 01:46:22,521
Goodbye, Dad

973
01:46:22,605 --> 01:46:24,273
Goodbye

974
01:46:24,816 --> 01:46:28,986
When will you come and see us?

975
01:46:54,679 --> 01:46:57,139
Goodbye
