3
00:01:56,533 --> 00:01:59,117
Oh, shit! Go fuck yourself!
4
00:01:59,617 --> 00:02:01,242
You crafty bugger!
5
00:02:02,450 --> 00:02:04,283
It's my lucky day.
6
00:02:06,408 --> 00:02:07,492
Bruno!
7
00:02:09,658 --> 00:02:10,658
Bruno!
8
00:02:11,033 --> 00:02:12,825
Give it a rest, we're off duty.
9
00:02:13,450 --> 00:02:14,658
Come and play with us!
10
00:02:14,825 --> 00:02:18,450
I can't help it,
I love the sound of an engine purring.
11
00:02:18,617 --> 00:02:19,408
So what?
12
00:02:19,575 --> 00:02:22,283
It's like when your sister
sleeps on my shoulder.
13
00:02:26,783 --> 00:02:28,408
Bruno and his cars...
14
00:03:12,075 --> 00:03:13,533
Last one.
15
00:03:36,367 --> 00:03:37,492
Bruno!
16
00:04:04,033 --> 00:04:05,408
Bruno!
17
00:04:29,992 --> 00:04:31,408
Giacomo, give me a hand!
18
00:04:44,658 --> 00:04:46,033
There are more!
19
00:04:52,700 --> 00:04:53,992
Come on!
20
00:05:00,908 --> 00:05:01,908
Come on!
21
00:05:04,367 --> 00:05:06,533
Combes and Lassalle, left.
Dronne, straight ahead.
22
00:05:06,992 --> 00:05:08,408
Cassard, right.
23
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:40,367
Right, Marcel, see you tomorrow.
24
00:05:40,533 --> 00:05:41,783
Bye.
25
00:05:45,992 --> 00:05:47,367
Where are the promised arms?
26
00:05:47,533 --> 00:05:49,242
Where's the promised money?
27
00:05:49,408 --> 00:05:50,200
Nothing.
28
00:05:50,367 --> 00:05:52,908
I had 1,000 tonnes of arms
and 6 million francs delivered.
29
00:05:53,075 --> 00:05:55,408
It's all the General could get.
30
00:05:55,575 --> 00:05:58,117
Let's be clear:
driving out the Boches, of course,
31
00:05:58,283 --> 00:05:59,523
but Vichy and the cowards too.
32
00:05:59,658 --> 00:06:03,033
The parliamentarians won't hijack
the Resistance. They betrayed us.
33
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,075
- Of course.
- But the Resistance must unite.
34
00:06:07,033 --> 00:06:08,617
The Spanish Republicans failed
35
00:06:08,642 --> 00:06:12,017
because they couldn't
coordinate.
36
00:06:14,658 --> 00:06:17,783
Rex, I agree to the Secret Army.
37
00:06:20,658 --> 00:06:22,158
Who'll lead it?
38
00:06:24,867 --> 00:06:26,200
The General.
39
00:06:26,533 --> 00:06:27,742
Which one?
40
00:06:28,283 --> 00:06:29,403
Can you be serious?
41
00:06:29,533 --> 00:06:32,283
Are you following what's happening
in Casablanca?
42
00:06:32,450 --> 00:06:34,117
History is being written there.
43
00:06:34,283 --> 00:06:36,325
Casablanca is becoming the centre
44
00:06:36,492 --> 00:06:38,408
of Anglo-American power.
45
00:06:38,575 --> 00:06:40,367
It is at the Anfa Hotel
46
00:06:40,533 --> 00:06:44,492
that Mr Churchill and Mr Roosevelt,
aided by their chiefs of staff,
47
00:06:44,992 --> 00:06:47,408
are preparing the next offensive.
48
00:06:47,825 --> 00:06:52,075
Here is the General who will lead
the French Forces into battle.
49
00:06:54,283 --> 00:06:58,492
General Giraud will replace
Admiral Darlan at the head of the French.
50
00:07:02,783 --> 00:07:04,143
At least Roosevelt didn't choose
51
00:07:04,283 --> 00:07:05,643
a man who shakes Hitler's hand.
52
00:07:05,783 --> 00:07:09,450
They've found a useful idiot
to make France a vassal.
53
00:07:10,408 --> 00:07:11,867
How very subtle.
54
00:07:15,367 --> 00:07:18,492
But, General,
France's fate is being decided there,
55
00:07:18,658 --> 00:07:19,950
in Casablanca.
56
00:07:22,367 --> 00:07:23,658
You're here for...?
57
00:07:23,908 --> 00:07:25,783
Securing the perimeter.
58
00:07:26,242 --> 00:07:29,450
Against French dissidents.
General Giraud's orders.
59
00:07:38,950 --> 00:07:41,070
- Let's bag some Gaullists!
- It's an ants' nest.
60
00:07:41,408 --> 00:07:42,575
I want them all.
61
00:07:48,825 --> 00:07:50,242
Gendarmerie.
62
00:07:51,158 --> 00:07:52,200
Get up.
63
00:07:53,033 --> 00:07:54,158
Against the wall.
64
00:07:54,325 --> 00:07:56,992
- Hands on your head.
- Lambert, bring me the kid.
65
00:07:57,158 --> 00:07:58,242
Move.
66
00:07:59,992 --> 00:08:00,992
No!
67
00:08:01,575 --> 00:08:05,117
If you don't answer me,
I'll kill your family, then you.
68
00:08:05,283 --> 00:08:06,992
Is that what you want? Where's your dad?
69
00:08:09,158 --> 00:08:09,283
Don't do that. Stop.
70
00:08:09,450 --> 00:08:12,158
- Where's his father?
- I'm begging you.
71
00:08:13,283 --> 00:08:14,367
Move.
72
00:08:15,367 --> 00:08:16,367
Faster.
73
00:08:16,450 --> 00:08:17,700
- Name?
- Reynaud.
74
00:08:17,867 --> 00:08:18,867
Name?
75
00:08:19,325 --> 00:08:20,908
- Pennacchioni.
- Hurry up, get in.
76
00:08:21,492 --> 00:08:22,533
- Move.
- Name?
77
00:08:22,700 --> 00:08:23,992
- Giacalone.
- Get in.
78
00:08:46,158 --> 00:08:48,492
- Clean this up.
- Yes, sir.
79
00:08:49,825 --> 00:08:51,200
Lock these Gaullists up.
80
00:08:51,533 --> 00:08:54,367
- Come on, move along.
- Come on, hurry up. Hurry.
81
00:08:54,700 --> 00:08:55,742
Come on.
82
00:08:57,283 --> 00:08:58,658
General Giraud...
83
00:09:03,325 --> 00:09:06,158
I'll say it again,
Churchill has a plane ready for you.
84
00:09:06,450 --> 00:09:09,992
I won't go to Casablanca by plane
or by canoe, Pleven.
85
00:09:10,158 --> 00:09:11,408
General...
86
00:09:11,908 --> 00:09:15,033
The fate of the world is at stake.
And Churchill's inviting you.
87
00:09:15,742 --> 00:09:18,408
One doesn't invite de Gaulle to France.
88
00:09:19,867 --> 00:09:21,450
It's a trap.
89
00:09:46,908 --> 00:09:48,867
If de Gaulle doesn't go to Casablanca,
90
00:09:49,408 --> 00:09:50,825
for us, it'll be Giraud.
91
00:09:51,158 --> 00:09:52,492
I heard.
92
00:09:53,242 --> 00:09:55,450
Livia, code a telegram
for the General.
93
00:09:55,617 --> 00:09:57,134
We have to deal
with this Casablanca business.
94
00:09:57,158 --> 00:09:58,200
Understood.
95
00:09:59,533 --> 00:10:02,658
- Prisoners in the hangar.
- Yes, Captain.
96
00:10:05,950 --> 00:10:08,950
Message for de Gaulle:
"Mission accomplished in Libya.
97
00:10:09,117 --> 00:10:10,700
"Joining the British in Tripoli.
98
00:10:11,283 --> 00:10:12,450
"Signed, Leclerc."
99
00:10:12,783 --> 00:10:14,033
Received, Colonel.
100
00:10:52,617 --> 00:10:53,783
General...
101
00:11:03,700 --> 00:11:04,742
What, Blaise?
102
00:11:04,908 --> 00:11:05,950
General,
103
00:11:06,617 --> 00:11:08,575
there's talk of a fake General
104
00:11:08,742 --> 00:11:10,825
who claims to lead the Free French.
105
00:11:10,992 --> 00:11:13,158
He's not a fake General,
he's a real one!
106
00:11:14,283 --> 00:11:16,075
You're the hero of France.
107
00:11:16,242 --> 00:11:18,158
Her knight without fear or reproach.
108
00:11:18,325 --> 00:11:20,242
Not any more, Blaise!
109
00:11:20,617 --> 00:11:23,533
- Have you gone mad?
- The world admires you.
110
00:11:24,117 --> 00:11:26,325
You're in the newspapers.
111
00:11:26,492 --> 00:11:29,492
The Americans are even making
a film about you.
112
00:11:29,908 --> 00:11:32,450
Maybe Chaplin will play you.
113
00:11:32,617 --> 00:11:34,658
I don't give a damn, Blaise!
114
00:11:57,783 --> 00:11:58,783
Pleven.
115
00:11:59,450 --> 00:12:00,450
Ah.
116
00:12:00,908 --> 00:12:02,783
Tell him I'm going to Casablanca.
117
00:12:03,367 --> 00:12:04,492
Yes, General.
118
00:12:52,283 --> 00:12:53,283
Let's go!
119
00:13:01,742 --> 00:13:05,325
We're taking precautions
to keep your arrival secret.
120
00:13:05,492 --> 00:13:07,033
Is that a French decision?
121
00:13:07,700 --> 00:13:08,783
Absolutely.
122
00:13:29,450 --> 00:13:30,533
Stand back!
123
00:14:00,950 --> 00:14:03,950
Simplest thing:
create a binational army corps.
124
00:14:04,117 --> 00:14:06,033
Harold, can I help you?
125
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,075
- Hello, gentlemen.
- I'm looking for "Admiral Q".
126
00:14:09,992 --> 00:14:11,033
Churchill?
127
00:14:12,117 --> 00:14:14,575
He's with "Commodore Frankland".
128
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:29,950
Mr President...
129
00:14:30,117 --> 00:14:31,117
There we are!
130
00:14:32,325 --> 00:14:34,283
General de Gaulle has landed.
131
00:14:34,783 --> 00:14:36,700
Here comes the bride!
132
00:14:37,658 --> 00:14:39,867
Congratulations, you did it.
133
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:43,283
Eisenhower, is the groom ready?
134
00:14:43,825 --> 00:14:45,700
General Giraud is downstairs.
135
00:14:46,408 --> 00:14:48,492
We must celebrate!
136
00:14:49,658 --> 00:14:51,992
The end of the French shambles.
137
00:14:52,783 --> 00:14:55,658
Tomorrow we'll have
a single French army.
138
00:14:55,825 --> 00:14:57,742
One leader, one subordinate:
139
00:14:57,908 --> 00:14:59,408
order at last!
140
00:14:59,575 --> 00:15:02,075
Giraud's Army of Africa
is large,
141
00:15:02,242 --> 00:15:05,908
but de Gaulle's men have the sacred fire,
that's what matters.
142
00:15:06,783 --> 00:15:07,783
Perfect,
143
00:15:07,950 --> 00:15:10,533
they'll pass that fire on
to Giraud's men.
144
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:12,825
It's not that simple.
145
00:15:12,992 --> 00:15:15,367
The groom, as you put it,
146
00:15:15,825 --> 00:15:17,950
is surrounded by ex-Vichyites.
147
00:15:18,117 --> 00:15:21,408
To de Gaulle and his men,
they're traitors.
148
00:15:21,867 --> 00:15:24,408
Remind me of one thing:
149
00:15:25,033 --> 00:15:27,408
who pays for de Gaulle's army?
150
00:15:28,492 --> 00:15:31,575
I won't fund
his little war against Vichy.
151
00:15:31,742 --> 00:15:33,742
We'll smother him in a committee.
152
00:15:35,450 --> 00:15:39,242
You go all funny
whenever the French come up.
153
00:15:40,533 --> 00:15:43,867
You're like Frankenstein,
terrified of his monster.
154
00:15:44,033 --> 00:15:45,950
- Oh, please!
- You know what?
155
00:15:49,033 --> 00:15:50,533
I'll see him first.
156
00:15:53,742 --> 00:15:55,825
Be my guest...
157
00:15:57,867 --> 00:16:01,158
The heaviest cross I have to bear
in this war...
158
00:16:02,992 --> 00:16:04,950
is the Cross of Lorraine.
159
00:16:29,450 --> 00:16:32,408
General,
the President wished to see you alone.
160
00:16:32,575 --> 00:16:33,742
Follow me.
161
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,575
General de Gaulle,
162
00:16:50,075 --> 00:16:51,325
at last!
163
00:16:54,825 --> 00:16:56,242
It's such a pleasure
164
00:16:57,575 --> 00:16:59,700
to meet you.
165
00:17:01,325 --> 00:17:04,075
The pleasure is all mine,
Mr President.
166
00:17:05,116 --> 00:17:06,783
I can't say "welcome".
167
00:17:06,950 --> 00:17:08,783
This is your home.
168
00:17:25,366 --> 00:17:28,991
The collapse of your country
under the German invasion
169
00:17:29,450 --> 00:17:31,950
was a real shock: six weeks?
170
00:17:32,825 --> 00:17:34,533
We'll get you out of this.
171
00:17:34,992 --> 00:17:37,742
If you see a child
attacked by savages,
172
00:17:37,908 --> 00:17:39,783
you step in, don't you?
173
00:17:40,783 --> 00:17:43,825
France is not a child,
Mr President.
174
00:17:43,992 --> 00:17:46,075
She has never stopped fighting.
175
00:17:46,492 --> 00:17:48,408
- The troops...
- Your troops?
176
00:17:50,158 --> 00:17:52,200
Tell me, how many are we talking?
177
00:17:52,617 --> 00:17:53,950
10,000 men?
178
00:17:55,033 --> 00:17:56,617
A battalion in the desert?
179
00:17:57,242 --> 00:18:00,617
General Giraud's army is taking over.
180
00:18:01,950 --> 00:18:06,617
- General Giraud is a good soldier.
- He'll make a decent military leader.
181
00:18:06,783 --> 00:18:08,825
But war is a moral matter.
182
00:18:09,242 --> 00:18:12,700
Soldiers who will die must fight
for a moral cause.
183
00:18:12,867 --> 00:18:15,450
France needs a moral authority,
184
00:18:15,617 --> 00:18:18,700
- not an office manager.
- As long as France is occupied,
185
00:18:19,158 --> 00:18:21,700
no one has moral authority.
186
00:18:24,283 --> 00:18:26,033
You chose our side,
187
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:27,617
the side of freedom.
188
00:18:28,075 --> 00:18:30,408
But you remain a lone general,
189
00:18:30,575 --> 00:18:34,450
with no backing from parties or deputies,
and you've never been elected:
190
00:18:34,617 --> 00:18:36,575
- a rebel!
- Nor was Joan of Arc.
191
00:18:36,992 --> 00:18:39,492
She simply fought for France.
192
00:18:39,908 --> 00:18:42,617
General,
Winston and I are asking you
193
00:18:42,783 --> 00:18:44,783
to come to terms with Giraud.
194
00:18:44,950 --> 00:18:45,950
You understand?
195
00:18:46,825 --> 00:18:48,367
To help you,
196
00:18:48,533 --> 00:18:50,867
we've drafted a memorandum
197
00:18:51,700 --> 00:18:55,492
proposing a memorandum of understanding
between you two.
198
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,700
If it serves France's interests.
199
00:19:05,700 --> 00:19:06,742
Yes...
200
00:19:07,575 --> 00:19:09,825
The conference ends tomorrow,
201
00:19:10,408 --> 00:19:13,075
you'll exercise your legendary wisdom.
202
00:19:16,908 --> 00:19:17,992
Mr President.
203
00:19:18,283 --> 00:19:19,492
Until tomorrow, General.
204
00:19:30,867 --> 00:19:34,033
- What a character.
- Stark raving mad.
205
00:19:34,992 --> 00:19:37,825
He knows nothing about politics.
206
00:19:39,492 --> 00:19:41,575
I expected him to be harder.
207
00:19:42,242 --> 00:19:44,242
Don't leave without his signature.
208
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,908
I hope you thoroughly enjoyed
the tête-à-tête.
209
00:20:20,075 --> 00:20:21,575
Harold Macmillan.
210
00:20:21,950 --> 00:20:24,700
I'm the special envoy
of Prime Minister
211
00:20:24,867 --> 00:20:26,117
Churchill, and I...
212
00:20:26,617 --> 00:20:31,117
It's an agreement that fully
respects your rank, General.
213
00:20:31,283 --> 00:20:32,700
I'll stay in case
214
00:20:32,867 --> 00:20:34,658
- you have any quest...
- Save them
215
00:20:34,825 --> 00:20:36,075
for your enemies.
216
00:20:43,992 --> 00:20:45,950
Oh, my plane...
217
00:20:46,658 --> 00:20:48,408
crashed.
218
00:20:49,742 --> 00:20:51,575
Did I ask a question?
219
00:21:17,950 --> 00:21:18,950
To put me
220
00:21:19,450 --> 00:21:22,783
on a committee with Marcel Peyrouton,
221
00:21:22,950 --> 00:21:26,325
- a Vichyite from day one...
- General, they hold the cards.
222
00:21:26,492 --> 00:21:29,658
And Giraud brings them 400,000 men.
We're
223
00:21:29,825 --> 00:21:31,825
barely 13,000,
drivers and secretaries included.
224
00:21:31,992 --> 00:21:33,367
It's a done deal.
225
00:22:29,075 --> 00:22:30,835
We're more than ready...
226
00:22:32,992 --> 00:22:34,283
Mr President,
227
00:22:34,700 --> 00:22:37,992
all I need
is equipment for my troops.
228
00:22:38,158 --> 00:22:41,617
- You promised tanks...
- Don't worry, my friend.
229
00:22:41,783 --> 00:22:44,825
He says you'll get the tanks.
230
00:22:44,992 --> 00:22:48,992
Does your creature know
we have other fish to fry,
231
00:22:49,158 --> 00:22:50,242
do you think?
232
00:22:52,783 --> 00:22:53,825
Ah!
233
00:22:54,867 --> 00:22:58,742
Barely two brigades
and he walks in like Stalin!
234
00:23:03,242 --> 00:23:04,283
Morning, Gaulle.
235
00:23:04,450 --> 00:23:06,325
Sleep well, General?
236
00:23:07,992 --> 00:23:12,200
Regrettably, we cannot
accept the proposed agreement,
237
00:23:12,742 --> 00:23:15,742
but we shall discuss all that
with General Giraud...
238
00:23:15,908 --> 00:23:16,908
Among Frenchmen.
239
00:23:16,992 --> 00:23:20,242
You cannot obstacle the war,
General de Gaulle!
240
00:23:20,408 --> 00:23:23,700
If you don't sign,
I'll denounce you to Parliament
241
00:23:23,867 --> 00:23:26,158
and to the press, and we'll carry on
242
00:23:26,325 --> 00:23:27,575
without you.
243
00:23:27,742 --> 00:23:30,367
You are perfectly free
to dishonour yourself,
244
00:23:30,533 --> 00:23:32,908
- Prime Minister.
- Calm down.
245
00:23:39,075 --> 00:23:41,950
General, perhaps you're right,
246
00:23:42,408 --> 00:23:44,158
it's a little premature.
247
00:23:45,004 --> 00:23:49,147
For now, it will be enough
to confirm our commitment
248
00:23:49,533 --> 00:23:53,492
to finding a solution
that suits everyone
249
00:23:53,658 --> 00:23:56,450
and simply to shake hands.
250
00:24:00,117 --> 00:24:01,158
If you like...
251
00:24:01,325 --> 00:24:02,117
Very good!
252
00:24:02,283 --> 00:24:03,283
Please.
253
00:24:03,783 --> 00:24:05,575
Let's not waste time.
254
00:24:08,575 --> 00:24:09,908
Come, gentlemen...
255
00:24:12,408 --> 00:24:13,575
follow me!
256
00:24:20,867 --> 00:24:24,117
The closing press conference
will begin in 15 minutes.
257
00:24:24,283 --> 00:24:25,992
Ah, at last.
258
00:24:27,950 --> 00:24:29,075
My friends...
259
00:24:32,867 --> 00:24:34,408
You may come closer.
260
00:24:45,867 --> 00:24:47,492
Ta-da.
261
00:25:07,575 --> 00:25:09,992
- All set to break camp?
- Colonel!
262
00:25:11,658 --> 00:25:12,783
- Are you done?
- Almost.
263
00:25:12,950 --> 00:25:14,992
- Hurry up.
- I'm doing what I can.
264
00:25:15,158 --> 00:25:16,367
Colonel.
265
00:25:19,367 --> 00:25:20,533
Colonel.
266
00:25:20,700 --> 00:25:21,742
Colonel.
267
00:25:29,158 --> 00:25:31,575
- Congratulations.
- You've been made general.
268
00:25:31,742 --> 00:25:34,700
- Cut the crap.
- The General signed the promotion.
269
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,617
Combes, what is
Force L's first duty?
270
00:25:43,783 --> 00:25:45,867
Never obey a stupid order,
General.
271
00:25:46,033 --> 00:25:47,325
Exactly.
272
00:25:47,950 --> 00:25:51,367
- We break camp.
- Colonel, message from the Americans:
273
00:25:51,533 --> 00:25:54,367
"Stand by
and await Giraud's instructions."
274
00:25:54,533 --> 00:25:55,617
What?
275
00:25:56,075 --> 00:25:57,283
Yeah, that's it.
276
00:25:57,783 --> 00:26:00,242
De Gaulle has apparently
made a deal with Giraud.
277
00:26:01,867 --> 00:26:05,825
- What do we do, General?
- De Gaulle, with a Vichyite?
278
00:26:14,575 --> 00:26:15,617
Congratulations!
279
00:26:17,575 --> 00:26:19,325
Coming from you, Peyrouton?
280
00:26:19,492 --> 00:26:22,617
- The grassroots and the top.
- The city's rid of Gaullist scum.
281
00:26:22,783 --> 00:26:24,908
Their master has bowed his head.
282
00:26:25,533 --> 00:26:27,117
Checkmate.
283
00:26:28,408 --> 00:26:31,492
I like them more and more,
your American friends.
284
00:26:45,825 --> 00:26:48,075
France will be rid of the Germans,
285
00:26:48,367 --> 00:26:49,992
but not of the Vichyites.
286
00:26:51,867 --> 00:26:53,117
Giraud?
287
00:26:53,533 --> 00:26:54,533
But...
288
00:26:54,867 --> 00:26:56,450
The Resistance with him?
289
00:26:58,617 --> 00:27:01,200
Free France is about
to disappear.
290
00:27:05,908 --> 00:27:07,033
No, no, we can't
291
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,617
- sign with Giraud.
- We don't even know what we'd sign.
292
00:27:25,325 --> 00:27:26,950
So, how was the holiday?
293
00:27:27,367 --> 00:27:29,658
DE GAULLE ACCEPTS
GIRAUD'S TERMS
294
00:27:31,075 --> 00:27:33,200
We're studying our options.
295
00:27:38,992 --> 00:27:41,408
There's no point staying in London now.
296
00:27:41,825 --> 00:27:42,908
Here.
297
00:27:44,367 --> 00:27:47,117
We've received a note
from Downing Street.
298
00:27:47,283 --> 00:27:49,450
Churchill intends to keep you in London.
299
00:27:50,533 --> 00:27:53,158
He won't make a single plane
available to you.
300
00:27:53,950 --> 00:27:55,158
Except to Algiers.
301
00:27:55,742 --> 00:27:58,533
To go and come to terms with Giraud.
302
00:28:00,492 --> 00:28:03,908
So, Pleven, I'm a prisoner.
303
00:28:04,492 --> 00:28:05,617
Giraud is purely a soldier.
304
00:28:05,783 --> 00:28:08,450
You must sign with him
to neutralise him.
305
00:28:09,158 --> 00:28:11,950
Catroux is working
on an agreement
306
00:28:12,117 --> 00:28:14,492
- that leaves you a free hand.
- Free?
307
00:28:17,825 --> 00:28:20,658
You understand nothing about politics.
308
00:28:21,367 --> 00:28:24,325
Giraud is the Americans' puppet.
309
00:28:24,492 --> 00:28:25,492
A free hand...
310
00:30:20,742 --> 00:30:21,825
Rex.
311
00:30:21,992 --> 00:30:23,033
At your service!
312
00:30:23,867 --> 00:30:25,658
You're not down for this transport.
313
00:30:25,825 --> 00:30:27,950
- I must get to London.
- By the next moon,
314
00:30:28,117 --> 00:30:29,283
it'll be too late.
315
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,450
Listen to me,
it's vital for the General.
316
00:30:33,617 --> 00:30:35,658
If it were,
I'd have received an order.
317
00:30:35,825 --> 00:30:37,033
He doesn't know it.
318
00:30:39,408 --> 00:30:40,992
He needs my help.
319
00:30:53,325 --> 00:30:55,283
- Yes, Colonel?
- Break camp.
320
00:30:55,450 --> 00:30:56,825
What do we answer?
321
00:30:56,992 --> 00:30:58,825
That we never obey a stupid order.
322
00:30:58,992 --> 00:31:01,033
We carry on.
The General needs us.
323
00:31:01,492 --> 00:31:02,742
Received, General.
324
00:31:04,867 --> 00:31:05,867
Break camp!
325
00:31:09,242 --> 00:31:11,700
- He's given up?
- No, he's given up on Giraud.
326
00:31:12,742 --> 00:31:14,825
To join our troops in Tripoli.
327
00:31:16,242 --> 00:31:19,200
That's a good thing, isn't it?
328
00:31:26,533 --> 00:31:27,533
Perhaps.
329
00:31:30,658 --> 00:31:32,408
The French!
330
00:31:35,450 --> 00:31:37,742
BRITISH EIGHTH ARMY
331
00:31:48,325 --> 00:31:49,783
Well done, lads!
332
00:32:10,575 --> 00:32:12,450
Now for a good shower!
333
00:32:17,992 --> 00:32:20,283
- General Leclerc.
- General Montgomery.
334
00:32:21,242 --> 00:32:21,992
Mmm...
335
00:32:22,158 --> 00:32:23,158
Very good.
336
00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:34,117
To be frank,
337
00:32:34,283 --> 00:32:37,783
when I was told
you'd be crossing the Sahara,
338
00:32:37,950 --> 00:32:41,825
I doubted I'd see you alive again,
and here you are!
339
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,242
General Giraud must be proud.
340
00:32:45,533 --> 00:32:46,783
We want to fight.
341
00:32:47,742 --> 00:32:48,950
I understand.
342
00:32:49,117 --> 00:32:52,742
I'm grateful,
but it's a complex operation...
343
00:32:56,242 --> 00:32:57,533
If you insist.
344
00:32:57,700 --> 00:33:00,783
The US 1st Division is holding Gafsa.
345
00:33:00,950 --> 00:33:03,450
It'll catch Rommel in a pincer.
346
00:33:03,617 --> 00:33:06,325
My men will push him from the south
347
00:33:06,492 --> 00:33:08,242
to trap him in Tunis.
348
00:33:08,492 --> 00:33:11,200
If he gets past the Mareth Line,
he'll hit you from the rear.
349
00:33:11,367 --> 00:33:13,825
No, a battalion
will cover my left flank.
350
00:33:13,992 --> 00:33:16,867
You'll only have two divisions,
he has three.
351
00:33:19,450 --> 00:33:20,492
That's correct.
352
00:33:20,658 --> 00:33:22,450
We may look like tramps,
353
00:33:22,617 --> 00:33:25,200
but we're fast
and we know the desert.
354
00:33:25,367 --> 00:33:27,117
We'll cover your left flank.
355
00:33:27,283 --> 00:33:28,908
- How many of you?
- 1,000.
356
00:33:38,158 --> 00:33:40,158
We'll supply boots and rifles,
357
00:33:40,492 --> 00:33:42,533
and clean clothes!
358
00:34:16,367 --> 00:34:20,325
If one day our children
359
00:34:20,492 --> 00:34:24,158
Should ask their mothers
360
00:34:24,325 --> 00:34:25,450
Where we were
361
00:34:26,117 --> 00:34:28,825
- Why we're here no more
- Come on!
362
00:34:28,992 --> 00:34:32,908
Tell them that their fathers
363
00:34:33,408 --> 00:34:36,367
Were Leclerc's lads
364
00:34:37,283 --> 00:34:41,575
And that we never once surrendered
365
00:34:41,867 --> 00:34:45,575
Tremble, enemies of France
366
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:50,158
Tyrants drunk on blood and hate
367
00:34:50,325 --> 00:34:53,325
Those who know how to
die will give the world
368
00:34:54,117 --> 00:34:58,200
Peace and liberty
369
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,492
And when France calls upon us
370
00:35:03,158 --> 00:35:06,492
Let us conquer or let us perish
371
00:35:06,658 --> 00:35:09,950
A Frenchman must live for her
372
00:35:10,533 --> 00:35:14,283
For her, a Frenchman must die
373
00:35:14,450 --> 00:35:17,075
Yeah!
374
00:36:00,158 --> 00:36:01,450
Go north.
375
00:36:12,908 --> 00:36:14,158
Ammo!
376
00:36:22,158 --> 00:36:23,867
- All right, Mirloin?
- Yeah.
377
00:36:24,033 --> 00:36:25,575
About time.
378
00:36:26,033 --> 00:36:27,450
Here, for your trouble.
379
00:36:57,533 --> 00:36:58,533
What's this thing?
380
00:36:58,575 --> 00:36:59,658
Wait.
381
00:37:00,658 --> 00:37:01,867
Two more Stukas.
382
00:37:02,325 --> 00:37:03,575
So 18.
383
00:37:04,075 --> 00:37:05,367
Plus one, 19.
384
00:37:05,533 --> 00:37:07,033
A Panzer division.
385
00:37:08,783 --> 00:37:09,783
They're regrouping.
386
00:37:12,033 --> 00:37:13,700
Reconnaissance vehicles.
387
00:37:23,367 --> 00:37:26,908
- Heavy enemy presence.
- You're not equipped for this.
388
00:37:27,075 --> 00:37:28,367
Fall back towards the sea.
389
00:37:37,783 --> 00:37:38,950
Against a Panzer division?
390
00:37:39,700 --> 00:37:41,242
- Without a single tank.
- Oh!
391
00:37:42,867 --> 00:37:44,700
Dronne, Raynal,
392
00:37:44,867 --> 00:37:45,867
what's going on?
393
00:37:45,992 --> 00:37:48,617
Next skirmish,
you send them packing.
394
00:37:48,783 --> 00:37:49,783
A Panzer division,
395
00:37:50,533 --> 00:37:51,617
at full strength!
396
00:38:08,367 --> 00:38:10,450
Officers of Force L!
397
00:38:11,283 --> 00:38:13,450
- Come on, fall in.
- Quick, quick, quick!
398
00:38:27,950 --> 00:38:31,867
Our friends the Boches
want to cross the Mareth Line.
399
00:38:32,533 --> 00:38:33,283
Our line.
400
00:38:33,450 --> 00:38:35,367
- How many Boches?
- We counted
401
00:38:35,533 --> 00:38:36,867
19 planes.
402
00:38:37,033 --> 00:38:38,783
So there should be 90 tanks.
403
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:40,992
The 15th.
404
00:38:45,158 --> 00:38:46,658
There are two passes.
405
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,492
They'll go into both,
simultaneously.
406
00:38:52,242 --> 00:38:53,700
We'll let them in.
407
00:38:54,325 --> 00:38:55,867
They'll roll right over us.
408
00:38:56,575 --> 00:38:57,575
Dio,
409
00:38:58,367 --> 00:38:59,408
you'll hide your men
410
00:38:59,575 --> 00:39:01,117
on the northern one.
411
00:39:01,450 --> 00:39:03,242
Dronne,
412
00:39:03,408 --> 00:39:05,075
you'll take this one.
Combes,
413
00:39:05,450 --> 00:39:06,783
with me on the high ground,
414
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:08,825
- at the epicentre.
- But will we have
415
00:39:08,992 --> 00:39:10,408
air support?
416
00:39:10,867 --> 00:39:11,992
I don't think so.
417
00:39:13,033 --> 00:39:14,700
The RAF has been assigned
418
00:39:14,867 --> 00:39:17,492
- to priority missions in the east.
- General,
419
00:39:17,992 --> 00:39:19,533
we've won every battle so far.
420
00:39:19,700 --> 00:39:22,450
You want us to get hammered
by a Panzer division?
421
00:39:22,617 --> 00:39:23,908
It's not coming for us.
422
00:39:24,075 --> 00:39:26,158
Have you seen Montgomery's order?
423
00:39:26,742 --> 00:39:30,200
Avoid all contact and fall back
90 kilometres towards the sea.
424
00:39:30,783 --> 00:39:31,533
Take cover!
425
00:39:31,700 --> 00:39:33,158
General, get down!
426
00:39:37,992 --> 00:39:39,658
General, don't stay there!
427
00:39:48,408 --> 00:39:50,325
Has anyone forgotten
428
00:39:50,492 --> 00:39:51,783
Force L's first duty?
429
00:39:51,950 --> 00:39:53,950
But this isn't a stupid order.
430
00:39:57,242 --> 00:40:00,867
Some people have understood nothing
about Fighting France.
431
00:40:04,367 --> 00:40:08,033
Back home, kids are fighting
with nothing in their hands.
432
00:40:12,575 --> 00:40:15,617
True, we get no news.
433
00:40:17,075 --> 00:40:18,783
But we all have a brother,
434
00:40:18,950 --> 00:40:20,075
a sister,
435
00:40:20,242 --> 00:40:21,533
a cousin,
436
00:40:21,700 --> 00:40:24,950
who, leaning against a cellar wall,
fights off sleep
437
00:40:25,117 --> 00:40:27,450
to send intelligence to London.
438
00:40:28,533 --> 00:40:30,033
We all have a friend
439
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,700
who, sent to sabotage, comes out
of a wood, crosses a mountain,
440
00:40:33,867 --> 00:40:39,117
finds a boat on a beach with no sail,
no oars, no mast, no rigging
441
00:40:39,283 --> 00:40:41,200
and climbs aboard without a qualm.
442
00:40:43,825 --> 00:40:47,325
Over there, each one is alone
and in constant danger of death.
443
00:40:47,950 --> 00:40:49,992
And not a single one of them
would give up,
444
00:40:51,575 --> 00:40:54,617
without even knowing
if their mission will make a difference.
445
00:40:54,950 --> 00:40:57,700
They all trust that sooner or later
446
00:40:57,867 --> 00:41:00,992
the enemy will be drowned
by all these anonymous acts.
447
00:41:06,075 --> 00:41:07,075
So we,
448
00:41:08,492 --> 00:41:12,283
who are lucky enough to fight
together, armed,
449
00:41:12,825 --> 00:41:14,200
and in broad daylight,
450
00:41:15,950 --> 00:41:17,867
let us prove ourselves worthy.
451
00:41:23,242 --> 00:41:25,783
Does anyone here still want to retreat?
452
00:41:40,158 --> 00:41:41,158
Dismissed.
453
00:41:54,492 --> 00:41:55,532
Leave with the logistics.
454
00:41:55,658 --> 00:41:58,283
No, I'm doing my job
and I know the risks.
455
00:41:58,450 --> 00:42:01,367
This isn't about risks any more,
it's a suicide mission.
456
00:42:01,533 --> 00:42:02,742
Leave with this...
457
00:42:25,950 --> 00:42:27,408
Hey, Mademba!
458
00:42:41,033 --> 00:42:42,367
Jerries!
459
00:42:42,533 --> 00:42:43,867
The Boches are coming!
460
00:42:52,367 --> 00:42:53,367
12 tanks.
461
00:42:54,325 --> 00:42:55,367
No infantry in sight.
462
00:42:56,742 --> 00:42:58,492
No infantry support in sight.
463
00:42:59,658 --> 00:43:01,283
12 tanks. That doesn't add up.
464
00:43:02,075 --> 00:43:04,700
- They want us to show ourselves.
- Everyone in position!
465
00:43:11,492 --> 00:43:13,825
You'll fire on my command,
466
00:43:13,992 --> 00:43:15,950
and on my command only!
467
00:45:25,492 --> 00:45:27,575
- Two seconds!
- What are we waiting for?
468
00:45:28,408 --> 00:45:31,117
- We've got to fire!
- Fire, fire.
469
00:45:31,825 --> 00:45:33,492
What are we waiting for?
470
00:45:33,658 --> 00:45:34,908
Two seconds!
471
00:45:41,783 --> 00:45:43,658
That's the 12th tank.
472
00:45:43,825 --> 00:45:45,200
12th tank!
473
00:45:57,325 --> 00:45:58,367
Fire!
474
00:45:58,533 --> 00:45:59,283
Fire!
475
00:45:59,450 --> 00:46:00,450
Fire!
476
00:46:06,075 --> 00:46:07,075
Fire!
477
00:46:18,825 --> 00:46:19,825
Fire!
478
00:46:21,575 --> 00:46:22,575
Load.
479
00:46:38,367 --> 00:46:40,075
Right-hand charge, fire!
480
00:46:47,742 --> 00:46:48,742
Fire!
481
00:46:50,283 --> 00:46:51,283
Fire right!
482
00:47:05,992 --> 00:47:07,325
You, stay. You, take him
483
00:47:07,492 --> 00:47:10,325
to get treated.
Come back, we hold the position.
484
00:47:10,492 --> 00:47:11,742
Roger.
485
00:47:15,325 --> 00:47:17,117
At least 15 more tanks!
486
00:47:47,658 --> 00:47:49,367
The Secret Army is taking shape.
487
00:47:49,533 --> 00:47:50,950
We'll be able to strike hard.
488
00:47:51,908 --> 00:47:54,617
Hold back your blows
and keep your losses down.
489
00:47:55,700 --> 00:47:57,575
For now, we are alone.
490
00:47:59,992 --> 00:48:03,242
I stand alone against America,
and only America counts.
491
00:48:04,367 --> 00:48:05,367
Don't misunderstand me.
492
00:48:06,533 --> 00:48:10,450
Roosevelt is a Francophile.
He speaks French as well as we do.
493
00:48:11,575 --> 00:48:13,200
Then what's his problem?
494
00:48:14,075 --> 00:48:18,242
In 1940,
we were the bulwark against Hitler.
495
00:48:18,825 --> 00:48:19,992
When Paris fell,
496
00:48:20,158 --> 00:48:22,950
after we had fought
so badly and so little,
497
00:48:23,117 --> 00:48:24,325
he was shocked.
498
00:48:24,492 --> 00:48:25,700
As we all were.
499
00:48:26,033 --> 00:48:27,158
Exactly.
500
00:48:27,533 --> 00:48:29,908
So he ought to support Free France.
501
00:48:30,283 --> 00:48:32,992
To him, France no longer exists.
502
00:48:33,158 --> 00:48:36,950
And for a quiet life,
he puts a pawn in the centre of the board:
503
00:48:37,117 --> 00:48:38,242
Giraud.
504
00:48:38,658 --> 00:48:39,658
For a quiet life?
505
00:48:39,700 --> 00:48:41,325
So as not to face
506
00:48:41,492 --> 00:48:44,492
someone who intends
to make France a nation again.
507
00:48:47,117 --> 00:48:49,700
Prefect,
508
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,408
I have no support from parliamentarians.
509
00:48:52,575 --> 00:48:54,950
They voted full powers to Pétain.
510
00:48:55,117 --> 00:48:58,950
I have few soldiers, and they are
dissidents from a defeated army.
511
00:48:59,117 --> 00:49:00,117
In other words,
512
00:49:00,450 --> 00:49:03,492
I embody everything
the Americans loathe.
513
00:49:04,783 --> 00:49:05,908
I am weak.
514
00:49:06,950 --> 00:49:08,408
And I stand my ground.
515
00:49:12,325 --> 00:49:13,408
And Churchill?
516
00:49:13,658 --> 00:49:14,908
Ah, Churchill...
517
00:49:15,533 --> 00:49:19,075
I swear allegiance to Giraud
or he cuts off our supplies.
518
00:49:24,533 --> 00:49:26,283
Then the Resistance is dead.
519
00:50:02,325 --> 00:50:06,825
It may be that I am an obstacle
to France's future.
520
00:50:19,617 --> 00:50:22,158
I saw the Boches
repositioning to the south-east.
521
00:50:22,700 --> 00:50:24,492
We're going to get a right pasting.
522
00:50:25,658 --> 00:50:26,867
General,
523
00:50:27,033 --> 00:50:29,783
we've got to evacuate the wounded,
it's now or never.
524
00:50:31,617 --> 00:50:33,200
Evacuate immediately!
525
00:50:34,242 --> 00:50:35,825
Wounded into the ambulances!
526
00:50:37,075 --> 00:50:38,275
You're going with them, Davis.
527
00:50:40,533 --> 00:50:41,742
Listen carefully.
528
00:50:42,867 --> 00:50:44,200
We may all die here.
529
00:50:44,908 --> 00:50:47,075
But I need you to stay alive.
530
00:50:47,783 --> 00:50:51,242
So people know we are undefeated,
we, the Free French.
531
00:50:51,825 --> 00:50:53,492
The Boches never beat us.
532
00:50:53,658 --> 00:50:56,075
We do not retreat,
we do not submit.
533
00:50:56,242 --> 00:50:58,867
Our children won't be able to
reproach us when we return.
534
00:51:00,908 --> 00:51:02,158
Do you understand?
535
00:51:31,533 --> 00:51:34,283
Take the rest of the artillery
for a defensive line.
536
00:51:34,450 --> 00:51:35,658
Roger, General.
537
00:51:35,825 --> 00:51:37,283
Troops to the south-east!
538
00:51:37,450 --> 00:51:40,117
Troops moving to the south-east,
confirm.
539
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,325
Sometimes one card turns everything.
540
00:52:00,950 --> 00:52:02,242
The parliamentarians.
541
00:52:02,658 --> 00:52:04,200
The parliamentarians?
542
00:52:04,367 --> 00:52:06,242
Why not the political parties?
543
00:52:06,408 --> 00:52:08,450
- Why not, indeed.
- Because they betrayed
544
00:52:08,617 --> 00:52:09,783
France.
545
00:52:10,700 --> 00:52:14,117
They're still elected, legitimate
to the Allies. We're not.
546
00:52:14,283 --> 00:52:16,617
No Free Frenchman will accept that.
547
00:52:17,158 --> 00:52:19,908
Without Allied support,
who will fund them?
548
00:52:21,158 --> 00:52:22,658
What are you proposing?
549
00:52:23,117 --> 00:52:26,325
To gamble the fate
of Free France at cards?
550
00:52:26,658 --> 00:52:29,075
Draw parliamentarians at random,
551
00:52:29,242 --> 00:52:31,825
watched by the Germans
night and day?
552
00:52:32,242 --> 00:52:34,367
Gather them in one room
553
00:52:34,742 --> 00:52:37,533
with Resistance fighters
hunted by the Gestapo?
554
00:52:38,825 --> 00:52:41,533
And on top of that, you hope
555
00:52:41,700 --> 00:52:45,117
to get them to agree
when they cordially loathe each other?
556
00:52:46,617 --> 00:52:48,367
If you trust me, yes.
557
00:52:49,992 --> 00:52:53,117
That's not trust,
that's the faith of the early Christians.
558
00:52:53,283 --> 00:52:55,408
It took that
to create Free France
559
00:52:55,575 --> 00:52:56,783
with one aide-de-camp.
560
00:53:00,992 --> 00:53:02,325
I must go back.
561
00:53:05,533 --> 00:53:08,075
Don't go to Algiers
unless you're in a position of strength.
562
00:53:08,242 --> 00:53:09,742
Give me time to act,
563
00:53:09,908 --> 00:53:12,033
without believing any report,
any telegram,
564
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:14,492
any rumour.
I need time.
565
00:53:14,908 --> 00:53:16,700
Sign no agreement with Giraud.
566
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:20,700
If you approve my plan,
have a phrase broadcast on the BBC.
567
00:53:20,867 --> 00:53:24,950
- "The jack of diamonds is on the table."
- I can't afford to lose you.
568
00:53:25,867 --> 00:53:27,242
And if not,
569
00:53:27,825 --> 00:53:30,325
broadcast:
"The ace of spades is in my hand."
570
00:53:46,908 --> 00:53:47,908
Fire!
571
00:53:47,950 --> 00:53:48,950
Fire!
572
00:53:54,700 --> 00:53:56,075
They're everywhere!
573
00:54:25,950 --> 00:54:27,408
General!
574
00:54:38,450 --> 00:54:40,408
Leclerc hasn't fallen back.
575
00:54:40,658 --> 00:54:43,450
He's only evacuated his wounded.
576
00:54:43,825 --> 00:54:45,242
He's done for, General.
577
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,492
"In a few hours,
we will give you victory."
578
00:54:51,408 --> 00:54:53,492
They don't make them like him any more.
579
00:54:56,992 --> 00:54:59,700
Have our planes finished
their mission in the east?
580
00:54:59,867 --> 00:55:01,283
Not yet, General.
581
00:55:04,700 --> 00:55:05,783
No, General!
582
00:55:24,242 --> 00:55:25,700
It's over, General.
583
00:55:37,617 --> 00:55:38,742
With me!
584
00:55:42,283 --> 00:55:43,450
For honour.
585
00:55:43,908 --> 00:55:44,992
To the end.
586
00:55:45,783 --> 00:55:47,617
- He's mad!
- Come on.
587
00:56:09,033 --> 00:56:10,158
The British...
588
00:56:41,117 --> 00:56:43,325
- They're coming!
- General!
589
00:56:43,492 --> 00:56:44,950
We've won!
590
00:57:04,325 --> 00:57:06,242
Look, he's chasing them!
591
00:57:07,325 --> 00:57:09,158
Let's give him a hand!
592
00:57:54,825 --> 00:57:56,825
- General?
- Leave me alone, Passy.
593
00:58:07,617 --> 00:58:10,033
General, Leclerc is alive!
594
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:16,617
Well done, General.
595
00:58:16,783 --> 00:58:19,408
Leclerc held off
a Panzer division.
596
00:58:23,117 --> 00:58:24,242
With what tanks?
597
00:58:24,408 --> 00:58:27,200
- No tanks, General.
- Just him and his men.
598
00:58:27,367 --> 00:58:30,117
- 3 submachine guns and a few rifles.
- Incredible.
599
00:58:30,283 --> 00:58:32,575
Churchill congratulates you.
600
00:58:36,075 --> 00:58:38,408
- Long live Free France!
- Long live Free France!
601
00:58:38,575 --> 00:58:41,158
- Long live Free France!
- Long live Free France!
602
00:58:45,492 --> 00:58:46,992
To Free France!
603
00:59:04,283 --> 00:59:06,908
GAULLIST WARRIOR
HUNTS DOWN THE GERMANS
604
00:59:08,075 --> 00:59:12,075
ROOSEVELT ASSEMBLES
AN UNPRECEDENTED MILITARY COALITION
605
00:59:26,158 --> 00:59:27,950
Leclerc! Leclerc!
606
00:59:28,117 --> 00:59:32,658
Leclerc! Leclerc!
Leclerc! Leclerc! Leclerc!
607
00:59:32,825 --> 00:59:34,117
Leclerc!
608
00:59:34,283 --> 00:59:36,658
- Leclerc! Leclerc!
- De Gaulle!
609
00:59:36,825 --> 00:59:39,867
Leclerc! Leclerc! Leclerc! Leclerc!
610
00:59:40,033 --> 00:59:42,117
Shout "Long live de Gaulle!"
611
00:59:42,283 --> 00:59:44,033
- Leclerc!
- Long live de Gaulle!
612
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:46,117
- Long live de Gaulle!
- Leclerc! Leclerc!
613
00:59:46,283 --> 00:59:49,908
De Gaulle! De Gaulle!
De Gaulle! De Gaulle!
614
01:00:21,700 --> 01:00:23,117
For the BBC.
615
01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:25,742
Personal message.
616
01:00:32,492 --> 01:00:35,867
Praise is pouring in
from every Allied capital.
617
01:00:36,033 --> 01:00:39,117
A journalist who secured
an interview with General Leclerc
618
01:00:39,283 --> 01:00:41,742
on the battlefield quotes him:
619
01:00:42,533 --> 01:00:46,117
"We are undefeated,
we, the Free French.
620
01:00:46,283 --> 01:00:48,533
"The Boches have never beaten us.
621
01:00:48,867 --> 01:00:52,283
"We do not retreat.
We do not submit.
622
01:00:52,742 --> 01:00:55,950
"Our children won't be able to
reproach us when we return."
623
01:00:56,575 --> 01:00:59,617
And now, please listen
to some personal messages.
624
01:01:01,325 --> 01:01:03,700
"The jack of diamonds is on the table."
625
01:01:04,617 --> 01:01:05,617
I repeat.
626
01:01:06,033 --> 01:01:08,492
"The jack of diamonds is on the table."
627
01:01:08,908 --> 01:01:10,783
"The sun rises every day."
628
01:01:11,408 --> 01:01:12,658
I say it twice:
629
01:01:13,075 --> 01:01:15,158
"The sun rises every day."
630
01:01:16,617 --> 01:01:18,367
End of personal messages.
631
01:01:31,783 --> 01:01:33,450
In the La Fontaine drop.
632
01:01:34,700 --> 01:01:37,533
The Resistance can't have
gone easy on you.
633
01:01:38,158 --> 01:01:39,450
They want more money.
634
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:41,575
For weapons, for everything.
635
01:01:42,075 --> 01:01:43,283
And they're right.
636
01:01:44,283 --> 01:01:46,242
The General's doing all he can.
637
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:55,408
I missed one.
638
01:01:58,783 --> 01:02:00,700
Something under a table.
639
01:02:02,533 --> 01:02:03,825
"On" the table?
640
01:02:05,283 --> 01:02:06,617
The jack of diamonds?
641
01:02:08,992 --> 01:02:10,158
Livia?
642
01:02:11,075 --> 01:02:12,867
I don't know, boss.
643
01:02:27,533 --> 01:02:28,533
Let's go.
644
01:02:33,242 --> 01:02:35,617
We'll bring in the parliamentarians.
645
01:02:35,992 --> 01:02:37,575
You're either mad or a fool.
646
01:02:37,742 --> 01:02:39,617
We had an agreement, Rex.
647
01:02:39,783 --> 01:02:42,367
You're destroying the Resistance
because you can't control it.
648
01:02:42,658 --> 01:02:44,617
Not only
will we never accept it,
649
01:02:44,783 --> 01:02:47,283
we'll tell de Gaulle
it's us or you.
650
01:02:47,450 --> 01:02:49,325
- That's the last straw!
- We need them.
651
01:02:49,908 --> 01:02:50,908
Oh, sure.
652
01:02:50,950 --> 01:02:52,742
The General needs that legitimacy.
653
01:02:53,533 --> 01:02:55,533
And do you have them, the MPs?
654
01:02:56,408 --> 01:02:57,408
I'm working on it.
655
01:02:57,492 --> 01:02:58,533
Oh, really?
656
01:02:58,700 --> 01:02:59,908
Which ones?
657
01:03:00,075 --> 01:03:01,742
All those who reject Vichy.
658
01:03:01,908 --> 01:03:03,283
Even the Communists?
659
01:03:04,450 --> 01:03:06,450
- I'm working on it.
- Ah...
660
01:03:11,158 --> 01:03:12,242
Good luck.
661
01:03:13,283 --> 01:03:15,200
- Deputy...
- You want my endorsement
662
01:03:15,367 --> 01:03:18,033
while telling me
my party doesn't count.
663
01:03:18,450 --> 01:03:21,700
I'm not asking for your endorsement,
I'm asking for your support.
664
01:03:42,617 --> 01:03:45,283
- I'll be with you.
- I trust you.
665
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,617
The priority is to set up
in Algiers.
666
01:03:51,408 --> 01:03:54,700
Catroux has got the concessions
needed to sign.
667
01:03:57,950 --> 01:03:59,533
Your plane is waiting.
668
01:04:01,033 --> 01:04:03,950
You'll be on French soil
by tonight.
669
01:04:06,908 --> 01:04:08,200
Page 3.
670
01:04:08,825 --> 01:04:10,200
General?
671
01:04:10,367 --> 01:04:12,492
We won't get any more out of Gir...
672
01:04:14,158 --> 01:04:15,325
Page 3?
673
01:04:15,992 --> 01:04:17,242
Patience.
674
01:04:23,158 --> 01:04:24,408
Patience, Blaise.
675
01:04:25,992 --> 01:04:28,617
I will not give up the presidency
676
01:04:28,783 --> 01:04:31,283
nor accept
Peyrouton's resignation.
677
01:04:32,367 --> 01:04:34,033
The rest is up for discussion.
678
01:04:36,575 --> 01:04:38,492
A new proposal from General Giraud.
679
01:04:56,158 --> 01:04:57,242
Very well.
680
01:05:08,658 --> 01:05:09,950
Peyrouton.
681
01:05:10,450 --> 01:05:12,242
Er, General...
682
01:05:12,408 --> 01:05:15,575
Pétain's police minister,
the man who did the dirty work.
683
01:05:15,742 --> 01:05:17,408
- Once we're there...
- Peyrouton.
684
01:05:18,033 --> 01:05:20,200
Yes, yes, it suits him fine, but...
685
01:05:20,700 --> 01:05:23,575
the make-up of the committee
needs reworking.
686
01:05:24,325 --> 01:05:25,367
And the preambles.
687
01:05:25,533 --> 01:05:28,992
I can't stand being caught
between an ass and a madman.
688
01:05:30,408 --> 01:05:34,200
I'll make one last attempt.
Then, I'm telling you, I resign.
689
01:05:50,367 --> 01:05:51,408
Trust,
690
01:05:51,575 --> 01:05:55,075
- that means nothing.
- Our country's future is at stake.
691
01:05:55,242 --> 01:05:57,367
What you're asking of us
is impossible.
692
01:05:58,158 --> 01:05:58,992
I can't see
693
01:05:59,158 --> 01:06:00,575
a good outcome.
694
01:06:02,992 --> 01:06:04,408
We'll meet again, Deputy.
695
01:06:06,033 --> 01:06:09,325
I doubt my Communist Party
will be in favour.
696
01:06:33,325 --> 01:06:34,533
I'll manage it.
697
01:06:40,783 --> 01:06:43,825
I'll organise the founding
of the Council of the Resistance in Paris.
698
01:06:43,992 --> 01:06:46,783
- Easier for the parliamentarians.
- You like taking risks.
699
01:06:46,950 --> 01:06:50,450
You set our meeting
next to Milice headquarters.
700
01:07:05,408 --> 01:07:06,575
G...
701
01:07:25,408 --> 01:07:27,700
"Network blown."
702
01:07:35,158 --> 01:07:36,700
Look out!
703
01:07:45,575 --> 01:07:46,825
Wait three minutes.
704
01:08:13,742 --> 01:08:15,242
Shut up!
705
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:33,532
- Galibier and Suzette have been arrested.
- I was warned in time.
706
01:08:33,700 --> 01:08:35,867
- You're blown.
- We must move fast.
707
01:08:36,032 --> 01:08:37,532
Have the agents cancel
708
01:08:37,700 --> 01:08:39,867
their meetings.
Change the dead drops
709
01:08:40,032 --> 01:08:41,072
and the identity papers.
710
01:08:42,117 --> 01:08:43,218
Alert London
and tell Mercure to disappear.
711
01:08:43,242 --> 01:08:44,825
Meet in two hours.
712
01:08:44,992 --> 01:08:46,782
No change of plan, we carry on.
713
01:08:47,367 --> 01:08:48,950
Livia, if you're caught,
714
01:08:49,117 --> 01:08:51,492
try to hold out 48 hours without talking.
715
01:08:52,075 --> 01:08:55,032
If I'm caught, you'll put yourself
at Mr Bidault's service.
716
01:08:58,117 --> 01:08:59,325
Happy birthday.
717
01:09:00,075 --> 01:09:01,075
Come on.
718
01:09:03,117 --> 01:09:04,492
I have nothing more to add.
719
01:09:04,950 --> 01:09:06,657
This agreement is take it or leave it.
720
01:09:26,450 --> 01:09:28,117
My respects, gentlemen.
721
01:09:28,907 --> 01:09:30,867
Florence Conrad.
722
01:09:31,032 --> 01:09:33,325
I've bought 19 new ambulances.
723
01:09:34,742 --> 01:09:37,742
I've recruited 14 Frenchwomen
in New York City,
724
01:09:38,282 --> 01:09:41,617
trained in first aid
and able to drive.
725
01:09:44,075 --> 01:09:46,032
We want to fight.
726
01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:50,325
Very good.
727
01:09:51,407 --> 01:09:53,157
Very good.
General, would you...
728
01:09:53,325 --> 01:09:54,867
We want Leclerc.
729
01:09:55,700 --> 01:09:58,575
Wait, do you know how they live?
730
01:09:58,742 --> 01:10:01,492
No washrooms,
hundreds of kilometres a day
731
01:10:01,658 --> 01:10:04,408
with dogs, hens, fennec foxes...
732
01:10:04,575 --> 01:10:06,825
We have a genuine admiration
733
01:10:07,158 --> 01:10:09,158
for General Leclerc.
734
01:10:09,325 --> 01:10:13,617
Fine. I'll raise it with him
when he pauses between two raids.
735
01:10:14,033 --> 01:10:15,075
Ladies.
736
01:10:20,617 --> 01:10:23,200
The ambulances have arrived,
there are women with them.
737
01:10:23,575 --> 01:10:25,825
- They want to stay.
- Sort it out with them.
738
01:10:25,992 --> 01:10:27,658
This is a joke, isn't it?
739
01:10:30,908 --> 01:10:31,908
General Giraud's here.
740
01:10:40,533 --> 01:10:41,533
General.
741
01:10:45,950 --> 01:10:49,742
Last time, you were
the young Captain de Hauteclocque.
742
01:10:50,158 --> 01:10:51,908
You've made a name for yourself since.
743
01:10:52,658 --> 01:10:54,742
You're the one who trained me in arms.
744
01:10:54,908 --> 01:10:57,492
- That doesn't explain your successes.
- No.
745
01:10:57,658 --> 01:11:01,450
That's down to having no telephone
and no top brass nearby.
746
01:11:07,117 --> 01:11:09,242
First, I came to thank you.
747
01:11:11,783 --> 01:11:14,367
When I was taken prisoner
in Germany,
748
01:11:14,533 --> 01:11:16,575
my wife and children
were in danger,
749
01:11:16,742 --> 01:11:19,450
with no help and no means
in occupied France.
750
01:11:19,867 --> 01:11:21,742
Until a family took them in.
751
01:11:22,283 --> 01:11:23,450
Yours.
752
01:11:24,575 --> 01:11:26,283
Your wife took them in.
753
01:11:29,242 --> 01:11:30,533
She's well.
754
01:11:31,575 --> 01:11:34,200
She's heard talk
of a certain Leclerc,
755
01:11:34,367 --> 01:11:35,825
without knowing who he was.
756
01:11:41,158 --> 01:11:42,242
Philippe,
757
01:11:43,117 --> 01:11:47,908
today I'm in charge
of this immense battle for France.
758
01:11:48,575 --> 01:11:52,242
This war is bigger than us
and our petty convictions.
759
01:11:52,408 --> 01:11:55,742
I'll give Gaulle
a prominent place at my side.
760
01:11:55,908 --> 01:11:58,450
So let's stop the politics
and join forces.
761
01:12:01,450 --> 01:12:03,908
Not while you're surrounded
by criminals.
762
01:12:04,075 --> 01:12:05,408
What are you saying?
763
01:12:06,783 --> 01:12:07,908
Peyrouton.
764
01:12:08,075 --> 01:12:10,117
He's backed by the Supreme
Commander, Roosevelt.
765
01:12:10,283 --> 01:12:13,367
- You know what you can tell him?
- Philippe!
766
01:12:13,658 --> 01:12:17,117
Hitler's arse-lickers will end up
in the dustbin of history.
767
01:12:17,283 --> 01:12:18,867
Mind you don't join them there.
768
01:12:19,033 --> 01:12:22,242
Stop, or you'll answer for your words
before a court.
769
01:12:22,575 --> 01:12:24,158
French or American?
770
01:12:25,950 --> 01:12:28,283
Pff... Being quoted Trotsky, too...
771
01:12:30,325 --> 01:12:32,783
No pasarán!
772
01:12:33,450 --> 01:12:35,117
- Attention!
- No pasarán!
773
01:12:35,283 --> 01:12:36,533
Death to the bastards!
774
01:12:37,075 --> 01:12:39,117
- What the hell is this?
- We send them back.
775
01:12:39,533 --> 01:12:40,867
They're anarchists.
776
01:12:42,658 --> 01:12:43,783
No.
777
01:12:44,367 --> 01:12:47,117
Dronne, you'll handle them just fine.
778
01:12:47,283 --> 01:12:48,408
And that?
779
01:12:51,450 --> 01:12:52,783
Let it be.
780
01:12:52,950 --> 01:12:55,117
There'll never be enough ammo.
781
01:12:55,283 --> 01:12:57,200
- Attention!
- Viva!
782
01:12:57,367 --> 01:12:59,367
- Knees up!
- Come on!
783
01:12:59,533 --> 01:13:00,908
Come on, let's go.
784
01:13:07,658 --> 01:13:09,450
No, that won't do.
785
01:13:09,617 --> 01:13:10,617
Come in!
786
01:13:13,658 --> 01:13:16,200
Not enough.
Call me back in 20 minutes.
787
01:13:17,158 --> 01:13:21,033
No way my men and I
are parading in Tunis with Giraud.
788
01:13:22,408 --> 01:13:26,158
You helped win this victory,
you must parade!
789
01:13:26,325 --> 01:13:28,867
Then may we parade with your men?
790
01:13:31,283 --> 01:13:33,617
Do you hate Giraud that much?
791
01:13:35,117 --> 01:13:37,242
I'm very fond of him, alas.
792
01:13:39,658 --> 01:13:41,158
It would seem
793
01:13:42,075 --> 01:13:44,367
that being French today
794
01:13:44,950 --> 01:13:46,950
is a complicated thing.
795
01:13:50,617 --> 01:13:51,617
No, Catroux.
796
01:13:56,700 --> 01:13:58,158
We'll have to talk again.
797
01:13:59,075 --> 01:14:00,658
Goodbye, Catroux.
798
01:14:03,033 --> 01:14:04,408
- Ah!
- General.
799
01:14:04,575 --> 01:14:06,617
Delighted to see you in France, Monnet.
800
01:14:06,867 --> 01:14:08,658
Do you know Marcel Peyrouton?
801
01:14:09,408 --> 01:14:10,533
Pleased to meet you.
802
01:14:11,533 --> 01:14:13,075
To what do I owe the pleasure?
803
01:14:13,242 --> 01:14:16,117
- Getting bored in Washington?
- General,
804
01:14:16,283 --> 01:14:19,075
President Roosevelt himself
sent me.
805
01:14:20,117 --> 01:14:23,450
To remove our friend in London
from the picture for good...
806
01:14:23,617 --> 01:14:25,575
Oh, Gaulle? But he's finished.
807
01:14:25,742 --> 01:14:27,908
He took himself out of the picture.
808
01:14:28,075 --> 01:14:30,117
Apart from Catroux, left here to negotiate
809
01:14:30,283 --> 01:14:32,575
some puppet agreement or other
with us,
810
01:14:32,742 --> 01:14:34,117
nobody backs him any more.
811
01:14:34,825 --> 01:14:36,033
Except public opinion.
812
01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:37,367
Yes...
813
01:14:38,533 --> 01:14:40,033
- Here, take a look.
- Mm?
814
01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:41,908
This.
DE GAULLE BACKED IN AMERICA
815
01:14:42,408 --> 01:14:44,009
GIRAUD'S MEASURES:
A HARD BLOW FOR THE JEWS
816
01:14:44,033 --> 01:14:45,283
And then this.
817
01:14:45,450 --> 01:14:46,450
Yes.
818
01:14:46,617 --> 01:14:48,783
- For example.
- We're not going back
819
01:14:48,950 --> 01:14:52,200
to letting opinion run our lives,
to falling back
820
01:14:52,367 --> 01:14:56,492
into the dithering
that did France so much harm.
821
01:14:59,617 --> 01:15:02,700
If you want to keep
Roosevelt's support,
822
01:15:02,867 --> 01:15:04,867
you'll have to spare him
this sort of thing.
823
01:15:05,033 --> 01:15:07,533
Mr Monnet, the American papers
824
01:15:07,700 --> 01:15:09,325
are run by the Jews.
825
01:15:09,492 --> 01:15:10,825
It's up to them to fix it.
826
01:15:11,825 --> 01:15:14,742
I'm a soldier,
I don't do politics.
827
01:15:17,700 --> 01:15:19,408
There's nothing for you to worry about.
828
01:15:19,575 --> 01:15:22,908
Show that you embody
French values...
829
01:15:24,492 --> 01:15:25,908
and American ones.
830
01:15:35,367 --> 01:15:37,575
It's the speech
Giraud gave in Algiers.
831
01:15:37,742 --> 01:15:38,742
You should read it.
832
01:15:39,742 --> 01:15:43,408
- In tribute to Pétain?
- No, but it was a big success.
833
01:15:44,825 --> 01:15:48,867
A democratic programme,
compatible with the Americans.
834
01:15:49,033 --> 01:15:50,783
- Monnet did a good job.
- Ah.
835
01:15:52,367 --> 01:15:54,408
And in his speech,
836
01:15:54,992 --> 01:15:59,450
does Giraud restore French nationality
to the Jews of Algiers?
837
01:15:59,992 --> 01:16:01,492
No. But General,
838
01:16:02,700 --> 01:16:06,450
he's tightening his grip on Algiers
while...
839
01:16:07,450 --> 01:16:10,158
we wait for the British
to cut off our funds.
840
01:16:12,783 --> 01:16:15,867
Speaking of which, Churchill
has just left for Washington.
841
01:16:20,783 --> 01:16:23,158
And in case you mistake it
for the fireplace,
842
01:16:23,325 --> 01:16:24,725
the other file contains a message
843
01:16:24,867 --> 01:16:27,200
from the three main
Resistance networks.
844
01:16:32,992 --> 01:16:35,158
They're demanding Rex be dismissed.
845
01:16:46,283 --> 01:16:47,450
Patience.
846
01:16:58,700 --> 01:17:02,867
ACTION OF THE DAY
Must break with de Gaulle. Churchill.
847
01:17:03,033 --> 01:17:05,117
Gentlemen, de Gaulle
848
01:17:05,283 --> 01:17:06,575
is leading us on.
849
01:17:06,742 --> 01:17:10,242
He was meant to go to Algiers
to make peace with Giraud.
850
01:17:10,408 --> 01:17:13,242
Instead,
he's stirring up trouble in London,
851
01:17:13,408 --> 01:17:15,617
refusing any possible agreement.
852
01:17:17,075 --> 01:17:19,658
How much longer will we tolerate this?
853
01:17:21,700 --> 01:17:24,242
It's written here: break with de Gaulle.
854
01:17:24,658 --> 01:17:25,783
Let's vote.
855
01:17:25,950 --> 01:17:26,700
Thank you.
856
01:17:26,867 --> 01:17:29,075
I know it's written,
857
01:17:29,742 --> 01:17:32,658
but we must think twice about it.
858
01:17:35,283 --> 01:17:37,783
Have you read Montgomery's report?
859
01:17:37,950 --> 01:17:42,075
Leclerc refused to parade
with Giraud's troops in Tunis.
860
01:17:42,533 --> 01:17:44,867
Break with de Gaulle,
and we lose Leclerc.
861
01:17:45,026 --> 01:17:46,026
That would be absurd!
862
01:17:46,408 --> 01:17:49,075
If we don't break,
let's force him to go to Algiers.
863
01:17:49,242 --> 01:17:50,075
Now!
864
01:17:50,242 --> 01:17:51,242
But how?
865
01:17:59,367 --> 01:18:00,408
Listen to me.
866
01:18:00,950 --> 01:18:02,408
I have an idea.
867
01:18:09,742 --> 01:18:12,075
- First take a look...
- General,
868
01:18:12,242 --> 01:18:14,575
the BBC has just announced
you're leaving for Algiers.
869
01:18:14,742 --> 01:18:15,908
What?
870
01:18:18,033 --> 01:18:20,783
Well played. If you don't go,
you'll look weak.
871
01:18:20,950 --> 01:18:24,492
If I go to Algiers,
it's to tell Giraud to his face
872
01:18:24,658 --> 01:18:27,158
that there will never be any agreement
between him and me.
873
01:18:27,325 --> 01:18:31,825
General, first take a look
at what General Catroux proposes.
874
01:18:32,533 --> 01:18:33,533
This is London.
875
01:18:35,575 --> 01:18:36,742
It's disastrous.
876
01:18:38,408 --> 01:18:40,242
It's all fucked. He's going to crash.
877
01:18:48,950 --> 01:18:50,283
It's all I have.
878
01:18:57,617 --> 01:19:00,075
Code this for me
and send it immediately.
879
01:19:00,867 --> 01:19:03,117
"National Council of the Resistance
formed."
880
01:19:03,283 --> 01:19:04,992
But... it's not true!
881
01:19:07,992 --> 01:19:10,658
The Republic is well
worth a forgery, Livia.
882
01:19:13,825 --> 01:19:16,408
"All networks and parties
request swift installation.
883
01:19:16,575 --> 01:19:20,117
"Provisional Government in Algiers
under de Gaulle's presidency."
884
01:19:20,533 --> 01:19:23,283
- Boss...
- Arrange a meeting with everyone.
885
01:19:23,450 --> 01:19:24,992
Even the communists?
886
01:19:25,492 --> 01:19:27,075
And if you don't succeed?
887
01:19:27,742 --> 01:19:30,200
You're putting the General
at enormous risk.
888
01:19:30,367 --> 01:19:31,700
And the Resistance.
889
01:19:34,242 --> 01:19:36,283
Giraud still has the presidency.
890
01:19:36,450 --> 01:19:37,908
Peyrouton is still there.
891
01:19:38,575 --> 01:19:42,783
Whatever you do, don't tell me
it was better a month ago. It's true.
892
01:20:06,117 --> 01:20:07,117
Perfect.
893
01:20:09,158 --> 01:20:11,825
I'll discuss the details in Algiers.
894
01:20:12,658 --> 01:20:13,700
Gentlemen.
895
01:20:16,283 --> 01:20:17,950
What's going on?
896
01:20:32,658 --> 01:20:33,825
Here we go.
897
01:20:47,325 --> 01:20:48,492
Gentlemen,
898
01:20:48,950 --> 01:20:52,617
here is a message from General de Gaulle
addressed to us.
899
01:20:54,908 --> 01:20:57,742
"The terrible upheaval
into which disaster,
900
01:20:57,908 --> 01:21:00,117
"betrayal and usurpation
901
01:21:00,283 --> 01:21:02,742
"have plunged our country
will not end
902
01:21:02,908 --> 01:21:06,575
"merely because the German forces
have been crushed.
903
01:21:07,700 --> 01:21:11,158
"The nation must emerge from
its liberation independent.
904
01:21:13,575 --> 01:21:17,283
"It is up to you to assert the rights
905
01:21:18,283 --> 01:21:20,283
"and interests of France."
906
01:21:23,700 --> 01:21:25,158
I propose the following motion.
907
01:21:26,492 --> 01:21:29,908
Repudiating the Vichy dictatorship,
its men,
908
01:21:30,075 --> 01:21:32,617
its symbols and its offshoots,
909
01:21:33,200 --> 01:21:35,908
a National Council of the Resistance
is created
910
01:21:36,075 --> 01:21:38,075
and made up of the members present.
911
01:21:39,158 --> 01:21:43,033
It intends that a provisional government
be installed in Algiers
912
01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:46,700
and entrusted to General de Gaulle,
who was the soul of the Resistance
913
01:21:47,242 --> 01:21:48,908
in the darkest days
914
01:21:49,075 --> 01:21:53,658
and who has never stopped preparing
the rebirth of republican freedoms.
915
01:21:54,492 --> 01:21:57,033
- This is impossible.
- We'll never accept it.
916
01:21:57,200 --> 01:22:00,117
- He has no legitimacy.
- He wants power.
917
01:22:02,158 --> 01:22:03,158
Not a word
918
01:22:03,200 --> 01:22:05,658
about this Resistance Council,
General.
919
01:22:05,825 --> 01:22:08,033
I have my doubts. I'm looking into it.
920
01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:10,742
If it's a forgery,
it'll put him out of his misery.
921
01:22:11,242 --> 01:22:12,242
Indeed.
922
01:22:18,492 --> 01:22:19,325
Peyrouton.
923
01:22:19,492 --> 01:22:22,950
Are you going straight to meet
General Eisenhower?
924
01:22:23,117 --> 01:22:25,992
- We'll meet at his HQ.
- I beg your pardon?
925
01:22:26,158 --> 01:22:29,575
It's for Eisenhower to come to me,
not the other way round.
926
01:22:30,450 --> 01:22:31,867
We are in France.
927
01:22:33,325 --> 01:22:35,033
Let's go by the war memorial.
928
01:22:37,033 --> 01:22:37,867
The Communist Party
929
01:22:38,033 --> 01:22:41,033
doesn't endorse pipe dreams.
We know the Allies
930
01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:44,117
handed power to Giraud,
not to de Gaulle.
931
01:22:44,283 --> 01:22:47,492
It seems to me it's up to us
to express our will
932
01:22:47,658 --> 01:22:51,450
- on the future French government.
- The will of the parliamentarians?
933
01:22:52,492 --> 01:22:54,867
Not long ago,
that was to hand France to Pétain.
934
01:22:55,033 --> 01:22:56,273
You reject the parliamentarians
935
01:22:56,367 --> 01:22:58,075
and the political parties?
936
01:22:58,408 --> 01:23:01,325
You want to make the Resistance
a single party.
937
01:23:01,492 --> 01:23:03,172
What mandate from the people
do you claim?
938
01:23:03,242 --> 01:23:05,783
The Resistance rose up
against those fascist practices.
939
01:23:06,242 --> 01:23:08,200
No, the fascists have turned up here.
940
01:23:13,658 --> 01:23:15,033
Gentlemen!
941
01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:17,450
Every one of us is wanted
by the Gestapo.
942
01:23:17,617 --> 01:23:19,450
We have very little time left.
943
01:24:02,575 --> 01:24:06,033
France's interest must come
before that of the parties.
944
01:24:41,492 --> 01:24:43,992
"We are undefeated,
we, the Free French."
945
01:25:28,825 --> 01:25:29,617
We all know
946
01:25:29,783 --> 01:25:31,325
what that means.
947
01:25:32,408 --> 01:25:33,825
It's now or never.
948
01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,575
Who votes against the proposed motion?
949
01:25:42,200 --> 01:25:43,200
Who is in favour?
950
01:25:55,992 --> 01:25:58,200
So it is decided. Thank you, gentlemen.
951
01:26:33,367 --> 01:26:36,075
"Let it be known to all
that we are undefeated,
952
01:26:36,408 --> 01:26:38,075
"we, the Free French."
953
01:26:49,075 --> 01:26:53,575
This Committee... Council of Resisters,
where is it at?
954
01:26:54,367 --> 01:26:55,617
It has been created.
955
01:26:57,158 --> 01:26:58,200
Right...
956
01:27:04,408 --> 01:27:05,575
Oh!
957
01:27:05,992 --> 01:27:07,325
Here comes the diva.
958
01:27:22,325 --> 01:27:23,367
Good.
959
01:27:24,492 --> 01:27:28,242
General, as future president,
it's for you to open
960
01:27:28,408 --> 01:27:32,075
this meeting to create
a provisional government:
961
01:27:32,242 --> 01:27:34,158
the French Committee
of National Liberation.
962
01:27:36,117 --> 01:27:38,242
Yes, yes. So, well...
963
01:27:38,783 --> 01:27:40,992
- Does anyone have anything to say?
- Yes.
964
01:27:41,158 --> 01:27:42,200
I do.
965
01:27:43,908 --> 01:27:44,908
The French people
966
01:27:45,450 --> 01:27:47,325
have expressed their will.
967
01:27:48,033 --> 01:27:49,617
The French people?
968
01:27:49,783 --> 01:27:51,825
The National Council of the Resistance
969
01:27:51,992 --> 01:27:53,617
brings together all political parties
970
01:27:53,783 --> 01:27:56,325
as well as all the Resistance
movements.
971
01:27:58,492 --> 01:28:00,450
Here is the motion that was adopted.
972
01:28:00,617 --> 01:28:03,200
- Unanimously.
- Thank you, Pleven. I've read it.
973
01:28:12,742 --> 01:28:15,200
Their will, indeed,
cannot be ignored.
974
01:28:15,367 --> 01:28:16,367
Ah.
975
01:28:19,700 --> 01:28:20,700
In that case,
976
01:28:20,783 --> 01:28:23,242
I propose a de Gaulle-Giraud
co-presidency,
977
01:28:24,658 --> 01:28:27,408
with General Giraud
remaining head of the armed forces.
978
01:28:27,575 --> 01:28:28,742
Let's vote by hands.
979
01:28:39,117 --> 01:28:40,117
Good.
980
01:28:40,575 --> 01:28:43,283
The Provisional Government of France
is born.
981
01:28:43,867 --> 01:28:46,408
I demand the retirement
of the Governor of Algiers.
982
01:28:46,575 --> 01:28:50,408
- You demand nothing at all.
- Peyrouton is an excellent governor.
983
01:28:50,575 --> 01:28:52,575
A collaborator from the very start?
984
01:28:52,742 --> 01:28:56,492
- The cars are waiting.
- We'll discuss it at the next meeting.
985
01:28:58,867 --> 01:29:00,033
"I demand..."
986
01:29:00,783 --> 01:29:01,908
"I demand..."
987
01:29:12,283 --> 01:29:14,283
["Le Père la Victoire"]
988
01:29:14,450 --> 01:29:16,075
He pulled through.
989
01:29:25,950 --> 01:29:27,200
Take my glass.
990
01:29:31,283 --> 01:29:33,033
Surprise!
991
01:29:34,825 --> 01:29:36,158
Gentlemen,
992
01:29:37,033 --> 01:29:39,117
don't take my presence amiss.
993
01:29:40,242 --> 01:29:43,200
You know the love
994
01:29:43,367 --> 01:29:46,992
I've had for France
since childhood.
995
01:29:47,783 --> 01:29:50,367
She's going through hard times.
996
01:29:51,158 --> 01:29:54,242
I have always supported her
997
01:29:54,950 --> 01:29:59,075
and I always will.
998
01:30:00,367 --> 01:30:02,867
I'm sure that General Giraud
999
01:30:03,033 --> 01:30:05,075
and General de Gaulle
1000
01:30:06,325 --> 01:30:08,867
will give her back a destiny.
1001
01:30:10,783 --> 01:30:12,825
It's a great day for me.
1002
01:30:14,325 --> 01:30:15,325
So,
1003
01:30:15,742 --> 01:30:18,033
I shall now inflict upon you
1004
01:30:18,325 --> 01:30:20,117
my favourite song.
1005
01:30:25,283 --> 01:30:27,742
When I see our soldiers
1006
01:30:28,658 --> 01:30:33,242
Marching merrily behind the band
1007
01:30:33,533 --> 01:30:37,075
Ah, I say, marking time:
1008
01:30:37,242 --> 01:30:41,033
"As in days of old, France is fair"
1009
01:30:42,242 --> 01:30:44,283
As in times gone by
1010
01:30:44,450 --> 01:30:46,408
Soldiers, I see again
1011
01:30:46,575 --> 01:30:51,117
Carnot decreeing victory
1012
01:30:51,283 --> 01:30:54,450
March on to glory
1013
01:30:54,617 --> 01:30:56,992
My dear children
1014
01:30:57,158 --> 01:31:02,450
Come home triumphant
1015
01:31:02,617 --> 01:31:04,742
- Bravo! Bravo.
- Thank you.
1016
01:31:04,908 --> 01:31:06,492
To victorious France!
1017
01:31:07,117 --> 01:31:08,408
Vive la France!
1018
01:31:08,575 --> 01:31:09,908
Vive la France!
1019
01:31:30,325 --> 01:31:31,492
What a jackal!
1020
01:31:33,492 --> 01:31:36,867
Sometimes it takes a jackal
to lead a country.
1021
01:31:48,158 --> 01:31:49,176
Mr President...
1022
01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:50,825
This is unacceptable, Ike!
1023
01:31:50,992 --> 01:31:53,283
Deal with the de Gaulle problem.
1024
01:31:53,450 --> 01:31:54,492
Of course.
1025
01:31:54,742 --> 01:31:56,033
If I may,
1026
01:31:56,533 --> 01:32:00,408
with all due respect, Mr President,
we have a war to fight.
1027
01:32:00,575 --> 01:32:02,533
That's not a suggestion, General.
1028
01:32:02,700 --> 01:32:04,908
I will not accept this putsch.
1029
01:32:05,075 --> 01:32:06,367
Sort it out!
1030
01:32:12,325 --> 01:32:16,658
Set up a meeting
with Generals Giraud and de Gaulle...
1031
01:32:30,117 --> 01:32:31,117
Let go of me!
1032
01:32:33,408 --> 01:32:36,075
- Ow, you're hurting me!
- Let go of me.
1033
01:32:54,742 --> 01:32:55,742
Move!
1034
01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:08,075
The address.
1035
01:34:09,492 --> 01:34:10,533
Which one?
1036
01:34:11,992 --> 01:34:12,992
Talk!
1037
01:34:42,450 --> 01:34:45,950
Let it be known that we are undefeated,
we, the Free French.
1038
01:35:16,867 --> 01:35:18,492
Undefeated.
1039
01:35:21,200 --> 01:35:22,783
Say that again, please.
1040
01:35:25,575 --> 01:35:27,117
Undefeated.
1041
01:35:32,033 --> 01:35:33,367
"Undefeated"?
1042
01:35:35,367 --> 01:35:36,367
What does that mean?
1043
01:36:31,908 --> 01:36:32,908
Ah.
1044
01:36:33,158 --> 01:36:34,450
Your interpreter.
1045
01:36:35,617 --> 01:36:36,825
For him.
1046
01:36:47,408 --> 01:36:48,533
Generals,
1047
01:36:48,700 --> 01:36:50,033
as you know,
1048
01:36:50,200 --> 01:36:52,992
we are preparing
a huge military operation.
1049
01:36:53,158 --> 01:36:55,492
It will require
a strict chain of command
1050
01:36:56,325 --> 01:36:58,783
and a perfect division of tasks.
1051
01:36:59,200 --> 01:37:00,242
Of course.
1052
01:37:00,408 --> 01:37:02,617
I thought that was clear.
1053
01:37:02,908 --> 01:37:05,950
General Giraud
is the military leader of the French,
1054
01:37:06,117 --> 01:37:07,658
he must lead the army.
1055
01:37:07,992 --> 01:37:09,033
Yes, yes.
1056
01:37:09,658 --> 01:37:11,533
And also in charge
of political affairs
1057
01:37:11,700 --> 01:37:13,117
as co-president.
1058
01:37:13,283 --> 01:37:14,825
A small question:
1059
01:37:14,992 --> 01:37:17,117
as military leader of the Allies,
1060
01:37:18,075 --> 01:37:21,033
are you also in charge
of American policy?
1061
01:37:22,075 --> 01:37:23,700
But I am also the guarantor
1062
01:37:23,867 --> 01:37:26,950
of the Provisional Government
Roosevelt helped to establish.
1063
01:37:27,117 --> 01:37:29,450
- Where's the problem?
- I read your speech.
1064
01:37:29,617 --> 01:37:32,408
I thought you were
a committed republican.
1065
01:37:32,575 --> 01:37:36,492
Separating civil and military power
is the ABC of it.
1066
01:37:36,658 --> 01:37:40,075
You command an army of mercenaries,
wogs and communists,
1067
01:37:40,242 --> 01:37:42,033
generals promoted by a deserter.
1068
01:37:42,200 --> 01:37:44,492
- I never deserted.
- Nor did I.
1069
01:37:44,658 --> 01:37:46,575
Your 15,000 mercenaries
1070
01:37:46,742 --> 01:37:48,908
and your fascist methods,
we can do without them.
1071
01:37:49,075 --> 01:37:50,575
I'm called a fascist
1072
01:37:50,742 --> 01:37:54,075
because I demand respect
for republican rules.
1073
01:37:54,242 --> 01:37:56,742
You create problems
where there are none.
1074
01:37:57,575 --> 01:37:59,658
I won't work with this madman.
1075
01:38:04,158 --> 01:38:07,242
Let me be very clear,
General de Gaulle,
1076
01:38:07,867 --> 01:38:11,200
we will change nothing
in the current arrangement.
1077
01:38:11,367 --> 01:38:13,450
The man I deal with is Giraud,
1078
01:38:13,617 --> 01:38:14,783
him alone,
1079
01:38:15,158 --> 01:38:17,408
and on every matter. Full stop.
1080
01:38:19,825 --> 01:38:21,158
Thank you, General.
1081
01:38:26,200 --> 01:38:27,575
Like any...
1082
01:38:28,492 --> 01:38:30,367
great war leader,
1083
01:38:31,033 --> 01:38:34,492
you follow the instructions
of your President.
1084
01:38:35,033 --> 01:38:37,325
I understand and respect that.
1085
01:38:37,700 --> 01:38:40,075
I wish you victory
1086
01:38:40,242 --> 01:38:42,992
in the difficult operations ahead.
1087
01:38:44,742 --> 01:38:45,742
General.
1088
01:39:08,325 --> 01:39:09,825
Gentlemen...
1089
01:39:16,783 --> 01:39:20,533
- Right.
- Gentlemen, it's time to settle
1090
01:39:20,700 --> 01:39:23,450
the matter
of the separation of powers.
1091
01:39:24,242 --> 01:39:26,867
Didn't you hear
General Eisenhower?
1092
01:39:27,033 --> 01:39:29,200
I'm glad you mention it.
1093
01:39:29,367 --> 01:39:32,867
Could you tell us briefly, here,
what has just happened?
1094
01:39:34,200 --> 01:39:36,658
General Eisenhower summoned us
1095
01:39:36,825 --> 01:39:41,408
and decided that I would retain
civil and military powers,
1096
01:39:41,575 --> 01:39:43,533
which Gaulle wanted to dispute.
1097
01:39:45,117 --> 01:39:47,242
As you've just said,
we are dealing with
1098
01:39:47,408 --> 01:39:50,408
a clear case of foreign interference
1099
01:39:50,575 --> 01:39:53,075
against French sovereignty.
1100
01:39:54,158 --> 01:39:57,742
I propose we consider, here and now,
the proper way
1101
01:39:57,908 --> 01:40:00,450
to reassert our sovereignty.
1102
01:40:00,617 --> 01:40:03,367
Oh yes, and would we be here
without the Allies?
1103
01:40:03,533 --> 01:40:05,033
I propose an immediate vote.
1104
01:40:05,200 --> 01:40:06,325
Stop your act.
1105
01:40:06,492 --> 01:40:10,658
Does what happened constitute
interference by the American army
1106
01:40:10,825 --> 01:40:13,617
against the French
Provisional Government?
1107
01:40:15,533 --> 01:40:16,908
No, that...
1108
01:40:26,908 --> 01:40:28,408
Right, now let's vote on...
1109
01:40:30,117 --> 01:40:31,117
the question
1110
01:40:31,908 --> 01:40:33,117
before us.
1111
01:40:34,325 --> 01:40:38,575
In the French Republic
we are rebuilding right here,
1112
01:40:38,742 --> 01:40:43,200
can one person hold both
civil and military power?
1113
01:40:57,575 --> 01:41:01,033
In that case, General,
I see no other solution
1114
01:41:01,200 --> 01:41:02,783
than you resigning
from this committee.
1115
01:41:27,492 --> 01:41:31,075
Monnet, give notice of the three decisions
just taken
1116
01:41:31,242 --> 01:41:32,658
by France.
1117
01:41:32,825 --> 01:41:35,158
Issue the necessary decrees
here and now.
1118
01:41:39,117 --> 01:41:40,200
Very well.
1119
01:41:46,783 --> 01:41:47,783
General.
1120
01:41:49,617 --> 01:41:50,783
Rex...
1121
01:41:53,242 --> 01:41:54,492
Where?
1122
01:41:55,158 --> 01:41:56,533
At Gestapo headquarters.
1123
01:41:57,825 --> 01:41:58,950
We can't do anything.
1124
01:42:33,492 --> 01:42:34,825
Let's carry on.
1125
01:43:19,033 --> 01:43:20,033
Livia!
1126
01:43:21,908 --> 01:43:23,492
We got your message in time.
1127
01:43:25,283 --> 01:43:26,408
Thank you.
1128
01:43:31,492 --> 01:43:32,742
We don't know who talked.
1129
01:43:33,450 --> 01:43:35,158
But you were on the list.
1130
01:43:35,325 --> 01:43:37,825
You must disappear
to another town.
1131
01:43:38,117 --> 01:43:39,158
All right?
1132
01:43:49,283 --> 01:43:50,533
"My friend,
1133
01:43:50,700 --> 01:43:51,950
"The end is near.
1134
01:43:52,117 --> 01:43:53,700
"Here comes the reward.
1135
01:43:53,867 --> 01:43:56,450
"Soon, together,
we shall weep for joy.
1136
01:43:56,617 --> 01:43:57,867
"Charles de Gaulle."
1137
01:44:04,450 --> 01:44:05,783
We won't meet again.
1138
01:44:09,158 --> 01:44:10,325
Good luck.
1139
01:45:58,283 --> 01:45:59,283
Perfect!
1140
01:46:13,408 --> 01:46:16,158
- Must I get involved?
- You must talk to him.
1141
01:46:16,325 --> 01:46:17,700
I'll see to it.
1142
01:46:18,367 --> 01:46:19,700
Do it before noon.
1143
01:46:20,867 --> 01:46:22,408
Ah, McSherry!
1144
01:46:23,617 --> 01:46:25,450
Come and show us.
1145
01:46:25,617 --> 01:46:26,700
Yes, Mr President.
1146
01:46:38,825 --> 01:46:42,450
Remove "French Republic".
Just the flag.
1147
01:46:45,908 --> 01:46:48,117
Let's put "France" instead.
1148
01:46:48,283 --> 01:46:49,283
No.
1149
01:46:49,325 --> 01:46:50,617
Not a country,
1150
01:46:50,950 --> 01:46:51,950
not any more.
1151
01:46:52,117 --> 01:46:53,950
Just the flag.
1152
01:46:54,908 --> 01:46:56,033
Mr President...
1153
01:47:00,492 --> 01:47:03,200
Our men are ready
to administer France.
1154
01:47:03,367 --> 01:47:05,908
Each will take a département.
1155
01:47:06,575 --> 01:47:07,575
Perfect.
1156
01:47:07,908 --> 01:47:10,658
Eisenhower says he's counting
on the Free French,
1157
01:47:10,825 --> 01:47:12,533
from the landings onwards.
1158
01:47:12,700 --> 01:47:14,242
Let him say what he likes,
1159
01:47:14,408 --> 01:47:18,533
de Gaulle will be kept away
from the theatre of operations.
1160
01:47:19,783 --> 01:47:20,992
Next item?
1161
01:47:29,242 --> 01:47:32,242
Military Government
of Occupied Territories
1162
01:47:32,408 --> 01:47:34,075
"New Wallonia"?
1163
01:47:34,242 --> 01:47:35,367
This is unreal.
1164
01:47:35,533 --> 01:47:36,617
And yet...
1165
01:47:41,533 --> 01:47:44,492
Perhaps we should
talk to Roosevelt.
1166
01:47:48,533 --> 01:47:50,367
No... Anthony.
1167
01:47:52,867 --> 01:47:54,825
We must win this war.
1168
01:47:57,117 --> 01:47:59,867
We'll lance that boil
in due course.
1169
01:48:09,908 --> 01:48:12,158
Let's at least inform de Gaulle.
1170
01:48:13,492 --> 01:48:16,283
Discreetly, through his secret service.
1171
01:49:39,450 --> 01:49:40,658
General,
1172
01:49:41,492 --> 01:49:44,575
I ask you to form as soon as possible
1173
01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:46,617
an armoured division
1174
01:49:46,783 --> 01:49:49,408
combining the Free French Forces
1175
01:49:49,575 --> 01:49:50,575
at your disposal
1176
01:49:50,950 --> 01:49:54,908
and the troops of the African armies.
1177
01:49:55,075 --> 01:49:57,575
You will take command of it.
1178
01:49:57,742 --> 01:49:59,408
Where my arm is pointing.
1179
01:50:57,867 --> 01:51:00,325
Roosevelt intends to occupy France,
1180
01:51:00,492 --> 01:51:02,408
cut off a third of it,
1181
01:51:02,742 --> 01:51:05,408
and turn what's left
into a condominium.
1182
01:51:06,033 --> 01:51:08,617
Perhaps even keeping Pétain.
1183
01:51:11,117 --> 01:51:12,242
- General?
- Leclerc,
1184
01:51:13,200 --> 01:51:14,867
I know what I'm saying.
1185
01:51:15,033 --> 01:51:18,033
If we don't assert ourselves,
there will be no France.
1186
01:51:22,617 --> 01:51:24,825
A single battle will decide everything.
1187
01:51:26,033 --> 01:51:27,450
And I entrust it to you.
1188
01:51:29,158 --> 01:51:32,367
These instructions override any order,
wherever it comes from.
1189
01:51:32,533 --> 01:51:33,700
Past or future,
1190
01:51:33,867 --> 01:51:36,450
they are secret and irrevocable.
1191
01:51:37,825 --> 01:51:38,825
Philippe...
1192
01:51:43,700 --> 01:51:45,783
No more absurd risks.
1193
01:51:45,950 --> 01:51:48,492
If you fall before succeeding...
1194
01:51:54,408 --> 01:51:55,992
I have no other option.
1195
01:52:16,742 --> 01:52:21,158
I entrust you with the supreme battle
that will decide everything:
1196
01:52:23,283 --> 01:52:24,575
Paris.
1197
01:52:25,242 --> 01:52:28,367
My hands in yours.
Charles de Gaulle.
1198
01:52:41,325 --> 01:52:42,325
And so,
1199
01:52:43,992 --> 01:52:46,033
after three years
1200
01:52:46,992 --> 01:52:48,450
of unspeakable ordeals,
1201
01:52:48,617 --> 01:52:50,242
the French people
1202
01:52:50,783 --> 01:52:51,992
reappear.
1203
01:52:52,700 --> 01:52:55,658
It has a Council of the Resistance
1204
01:52:56,575 --> 01:52:58,033
that unites all those
1205
01:52:58,408 --> 01:53:02,492
who fight in secret
against the invader.
1206
01:53:03,742 --> 01:53:06,492
It has a Provisional Government.
1207
01:53:11,992 --> 01:53:14,033
It needs a great army.
1208
01:53:16,075 --> 01:53:18,117
It is in the desert
1209
01:53:18,283 --> 01:53:21,575
that, at this very moment,
there is re-emerging
1210
01:53:21,742 --> 01:53:25,117
the force we lacked
1211
01:53:25,283 --> 01:53:26,867
in 1940.
1212
01:53:28,408 --> 01:53:32,992
Fast, modern,
built entirely for attack.
1213
01:53:33,617 --> 01:53:37,408
The force that will unite all the French,
1214
01:53:37,575 --> 01:53:39,700
since it is born of their union.
1215
01:53:39,867 --> 01:53:40,867
Bravo!
1216
01:53:40,992 --> 01:53:41,783
You are assigned
1217
01:53:41,950 --> 01:53:44,450
to the 2nd Armoured Division
under my command.
1218
01:53:46,825 --> 01:53:49,533
It is the first great force
in which
1219
01:53:49,700 --> 01:53:53,742
Frenchmen are brought together who,
for three years, were divided.
1220
01:53:55,658 --> 01:53:57,158
Even enemies.
1221
01:53:58,658 --> 01:54:00,408
I ask you to reflect
1222
01:54:00,992 --> 01:54:03,075
on the importance of this reunion.
1223
01:54:04,117 --> 01:54:05,783
Around the world,
1224
01:54:05,950 --> 01:54:10,117
certain minds, supposedly realistic,
1225
01:54:10,283 --> 01:54:13,283
may have believed that for the French,
1226
01:54:13,450 --> 01:54:16,283
and for the French alone,
1227
01:54:16,450 --> 01:54:19,867
the war effort could exist
1228
01:54:20,033 --> 01:54:21,992
outside of morality.
1229
01:54:22,408 --> 01:54:25,283
Our country is in a situation
1230
01:54:25,450 --> 01:54:26,492
it has never known.
1231
01:54:27,908 --> 01:54:28,908
It has become
1232
01:54:29,742 --> 01:54:32,117
a second-rate nation.
1233
01:54:33,492 --> 01:54:35,158
Our elites have failed.
1234
01:54:36,242 --> 01:54:40,158
Tomorrow, when you see a dignitary,
you may well ask yourselves
1235
01:54:40,325 --> 01:54:43,033
whether he was incompetent before '40
1236
01:54:43,200 --> 01:54:44,658
or a coward since.
1237
01:54:46,325 --> 01:54:50,325
But we cannot afford
the luxury of internal divisions.
1238
01:54:50,492 --> 01:54:51,867
Theorists may have
1239
01:54:52,242 --> 01:54:53,575
imagined
1240
01:54:55,242 --> 01:54:58,492
that our soldiers, our sailors,
our airmen,
1241
01:54:58,658 --> 01:55:02,492
unlike all the soldiers,
all the sailors,
1242
01:55:02,658 --> 01:55:04,450
all the airmen in the world,
1243
01:55:04,617 --> 01:55:07,617
would go into battle
without caring why
1244
01:55:07,783 --> 01:55:10,325
they were facing death.
1245
01:55:10,700 --> 01:55:12,283
From the moment
1246
01:55:12,450 --> 01:55:14,867
you set foot on French soil,
1247
01:55:15,450 --> 01:55:16,810
you'll be thrown into battle,
1248
01:55:18,117 --> 01:55:19,325
with no transition.
1249
01:55:19,492 --> 01:55:20,492
France
1250
01:55:22,117 --> 01:55:25,700
is a tortured captive
1251
01:55:27,408 --> 01:55:29,075
who, under the blows,
1252
01:55:29,742 --> 01:55:31,450
in her dungeon,
1253
01:55:31,825 --> 01:55:34,783
has grasped once and for all
1254
01:55:35,075 --> 01:55:37,117
the causes of her misfortunes
1255
01:55:37,492 --> 01:55:39,200
and the infamy of her tyrants.
1256
01:55:39,742 --> 01:55:43,575
No time to get to know
the terrain or the enemy.
1257
01:55:44,825 --> 01:55:47,158
You'll have to take the initiative
1258
01:55:47,658 --> 01:55:49,283
- quickly.
- Without claiming
1259
01:55:49,450 --> 01:55:51,658
the gift of prophecy,
1260
01:55:51,825 --> 01:55:53,742
we need only listen
1261
01:55:53,908 --> 01:55:55,533
to our hearts beating
1262
01:55:56,575 --> 01:55:58,325
to say this:
1263
01:55:58,617 --> 01:55:59,617
In life,
1264
01:56:00,992 --> 01:56:04,367
you only succeed
if you're obsessed with an idea.
1265
01:56:16,742 --> 01:56:19,992
Recheck the inventory
and load the crates.
1266
01:56:24,658 --> 01:56:27,950
I thought armoured divisions
were off-limits to Negroes.
1267
01:56:28,700 --> 01:56:31,033
- Have you got a problem?
- Captain, Captain...
1268
01:56:31,367 --> 01:56:33,742
Captain, it's not worth it.
1269
01:56:33,908 --> 01:56:35,242
Let it go.
1270
01:56:42,992 --> 01:56:45,867
Because of them, we lost
our 4,000 Senegalese Tirailleurs.
1271
01:56:46,033 --> 01:56:47,575
Three quarters of the division.
1272
01:56:48,492 --> 01:56:51,408
Think of the men
instead of the division.
1273
01:56:51,825 --> 01:56:53,533
They fought like lions
1274
01:56:53,700 --> 01:56:55,367
and were sent home like the defeated.
1275
01:56:55,533 --> 01:56:58,533
The Americans
have rules for everything.
1276
01:56:58,700 --> 01:57:01,158
One day they'll lecture
the whole world.
1277
01:57:04,575 --> 01:57:06,492
Still, they're impressive.
1278
01:57:07,200 --> 01:57:08,200
This way.
1279
01:57:19,117 --> 01:57:20,117
Captain!
1280
01:57:20,450 --> 01:57:22,950
- Ariane?
- We're completely lost.
1281
01:57:23,617 --> 01:57:24,867
So are we.
1282
01:57:25,992 --> 01:57:27,242
Up on the ridge.
1283
01:57:31,783 --> 01:57:34,117
We haven't the faintest idea
what we're supposed to do.
1284
01:57:37,742 --> 01:57:39,450
We don't even know where Leclerc is.
1285
01:57:39,825 --> 01:57:41,505
- Or when.
- Or where we're meant to do it.
1286
01:57:48,367 --> 01:57:50,283
How long did it
take them to build that?
1287
01:57:51,825 --> 01:57:53,825
We won't find him any time soon.
1288
01:57:57,408 --> 01:57:59,700
Look, their General.
1289
01:58:12,867 --> 01:58:15,575
General, Mr Churchill on the line.
1290
01:58:19,075 --> 01:58:21,908
Between you and me,
do we need de Gaulle?
1291
01:58:22,908 --> 01:58:26,450
How many casualties
are we prepared to accept?
1292
01:58:27,033 --> 01:58:29,033
That's the question.
1293
01:58:29,450 --> 01:58:30,450
Be specific.
1294
01:58:30,617 --> 01:58:32,450
The more the Resistance deploys,
1295
01:58:32,617 --> 01:58:33,908
the fewer men we'll lose.
1296
01:58:34,075 --> 01:58:35,908
Every act of sabotage,
1297
01:58:36,075 --> 01:58:38,658
every Secret Army operation
1298
01:58:38,825 --> 01:58:41,867
against German logistics
will relieve us.
1299
01:58:42,033 --> 01:58:44,700
And we really need it.
1300
01:58:45,658 --> 01:58:49,283
De Gaulle's men
could make all the difference.
1301
01:58:49,450 --> 01:58:51,492
And I trust him.
1302
01:58:52,575 --> 01:58:55,158
- Have you told Roosevelt?
- More than once.
1303
01:58:55,325 --> 01:58:58,242
I'm not even allowed
to speak to de Gaulle.
1304
01:58:58,408 --> 01:59:01,325
How will we tell the British
that their children
1305
01:59:01,492 --> 01:59:04,158
died
because we didn't talk to de Gaulle?
1306
01:59:04,325 --> 01:59:05,658
I know, Anthony!
1307
01:59:08,367 --> 01:59:11,242
Can we avoid
breaking up his armoured division?
1308
01:59:12,242 --> 01:59:14,617
Leclerc's division
isn't up to standard,
1309
01:59:14,783 --> 01:59:17,367
it's short 253 vehicles.
1310
01:59:17,908 --> 01:59:19,492
Yes, I've read the file.
1311
01:59:20,700 --> 01:59:21,742
But...
1312
01:59:23,075 --> 01:59:24,617
could you step in?
1313
01:59:26,617 --> 01:59:28,533
Is your line secure?
1314
01:59:28,700 --> 01:59:29,700
Yes.
1315
01:59:31,700 --> 01:59:32,825
Well...
1316
01:59:33,992 --> 01:59:36,950
I might be able to find
some other vehicles.
1317
01:59:37,200 --> 01:59:39,325
And tell my men
to turn a blind eye.
1318
01:59:39,825 --> 01:59:41,992
- Would that help with de Gaulle?
- Yes.
1319
01:59:42,158 --> 01:59:43,242
Very well.
1320
01:59:47,825 --> 01:59:49,950
If we want our children to think
1321
01:59:50,117 --> 01:59:53,117
we acted like adults
on the eve of this historic moment,
1322
01:59:53,283 --> 01:59:55,825
we must bring de Gaulle over at once.
1323
01:59:57,325 --> 02:00:00,908
We can't land in France
behind his back!
1324
02:00:01,075 --> 02:00:02,408
What's that?
1325
02:00:02,908 --> 02:00:06,325
Eisenhower's message
if we succeed, and this...
1326
02:00:06,783 --> 02:00:08,158
is for the opposite.
1327
02:00:10,450 --> 02:00:11,825
Where's Mr Weather?
1328
02:00:12,117 --> 02:00:12,950
Sorry.
1329
02:00:13,117 --> 02:00:16,867
If we must brush with hell,
let us be brave and dignified.
1330
02:00:17,033 --> 02:00:20,575
That idiot said the storm would stop,
I want him to say it again.
1331
02:00:22,992 --> 02:00:24,075
De Gaulle!
1332
02:00:32,742 --> 02:00:36,283
The prefect is head of the police,
the Gendarmerie,
1333
02:00:36,450 --> 02:00:38,158
the fire brigade and the school.
1334
02:00:38,700 --> 02:00:41,408
- All together.
- The prefect is head of the police,
1335
02:00:41,575 --> 02:00:44,742
the Gendarmerie,
the fire brigade and the school.
1336
02:00:44,908 --> 02:00:46,408
All right, boys.
1337
02:00:46,825 --> 02:00:49,992
This is Mr McSherry,
who's in charge.
1338
02:00:50,158 --> 02:00:52,283
Go ahead, introduce yourselves.
1339
02:00:52,450 --> 02:00:53,575
Who's first?
1340
02:00:55,075 --> 02:00:56,450
What's your name?
1341
02:00:57,283 --> 02:00:59,992
- John Boivin.
- Lansing, Michigan, 39.
1342
02:01:00,158 --> 02:01:01,200
Posted to Limoges.
1343
02:01:05,492 --> 02:01:07,742
Bill Abella, from Tucson, Arizona.
1344
02:01:07,908 --> 02:01:10,033
Married, three kids.
1345
02:01:10,450 --> 02:01:13,575
I'm a winegrower,
I can't wait to get to Bordeaux!
1346
02:01:16,492 --> 02:01:17,617
Perfect.
1347
02:01:18,325 --> 02:01:19,367
Carry on.
1348
02:01:19,533 --> 02:01:20,908
From the top.
1349
02:01:21,825 --> 02:01:23,283
The Vichy government...
1350
02:01:25,867 --> 02:01:27,075
General.
1351
02:01:40,367 --> 02:01:42,867
This, on future military spending.
1352
02:01:44,117 --> 02:01:45,117
Ah!
1353
02:01:46,492 --> 02:01:47,492
General.
1354
02:01:50,908 --> 02:01:52,658
Prime Minister.
1355
02:01:52,825 --> 02:01:54,283
Thank you for coming.
1356
02:02:00,075 --> 02:02:01,492
Thank you, gentlemen.
1357
02:02:07,408 --> 02:02:09,450
I am taking it upon myself
1358
02:02:10,450 --> 02:02:13,492
to inform you that we will
1359
02:02:13,658 --> 02:02:17,075
launch a landing in Normandy
1360
02:02:17,242 --> 02:02:21,700
within the next few hours,
weather permitting.
1361
02:02:21,867 --> 02:02:23,825
Thank you for inviting me.
1362
02:02:23,992 --> 02:02:25,825
A few hours after
1363
02:02:25,992 --> 02:02:27,908
the operation is launched,
1364
02:02:28,450 --> 02:02:32,283
Eisenhower will give
a radio address.
1365
02:02:33,325 --> 02:02:35,367
It is essential
1366
02:02:36,033 --> 02:02:38,367
to show our unity
1367
02:02:39,283 --> 02:02:41,742
to spread fear among the enemy.
1368
02:02:45,908 --> 02:02:48,200
I hope you will agree
1369
02:02:48,367 --> 02:02:50,492
to speak after him.
1370
02:02:53,367 --> 02:02:56,242
By what right would Eisenhower
give orders
1371
02:02:56,408 --> 02:02:58,283
to the French people?
1372
02:03:00,117 --> 02:03:01,117
By what right
1373
02:03:03,408 --> 02:03:05,408
to the French Provisional Government?
1374
02:03:06,408 --> 02:03:10,075
Do you think I don't know
the Americans are about to land
1375
02:03:10,242 --> 02:03:13,533
carrying currency
printed in the United States?
1376
02:03:17,325 --> 02:03:18,742
I think
1377
02:03:19,075 --> 02:03:22,408
you should go and see Roosevelt
in Washington.
1378
02:03:22,783 --> 02:03:23,992
What for?
1379
02:03:24,575 --> 02:03:26,908
I've asked him ten times
to go and see him.
1380
02:03:27,075 --> 02:03:29,700
- He never saw fit to answer me.
- General,
1381
02:03:29,867 --> 02:03:31,908
the battle will be long.
1382
02:03:32,408 --> 02:03:34,200
You can still convince him.
1383
02:03:34,367 --> 02:03:36,492
Convince him of what, Mr Eden?
1384
02:03:37,700 --> 02:03:39,075
- The President...
- Sir,
1385
02:03:39,783 --> 02:03:43,325
if you don't publicly support
the Allied soldiers
1386
02:03:43,492 --> 02:03:46,117
who are coming to free your country,
1387
02:03:46,700 --> 02:03:51,450
we shall take it as an insult,
I and the entire Labour Party.
1388
02:03:51,700 --> 02:03:52,992
An insult?
1389
02:03:53,867 --> 02:03:55,742
I lived as a prisoner in London.
1390
02:03:55,908 --> 02:03:59,242
I had to face
systematic opposition in Algiers.
1391
02:03:59,408 --> 02:04:00,658
I sent proposals
1392
02:04:00,825 --> 02:04:03,450
that neither you nor Roosevelt
ever answered.
1393
02:04:03,617 --> 02:04:08,408
And now the Labour Party
would feel insulted by me.
1394
02:04:09,450 --> 02:04:12,450
I will not endorse
Eisenhower's statements by speaking
1395
02:04:12,617 --> 02:04:13,617
after him.
1396
02:04:15,700 --> 02:04:18,325
Go on, wage your war
with your counterfeit money.
1397
02:04:18,492 --> 02:04:21,033
General de Gaulle, know this
1398
02:04:21,200 --> 02:04:22,700
once and for all:
1399
02:04:22,867 --> 02:04:26,658
every time we have to choose
between you and Roosevelt,
1400
02:04:26,825 --> 02:04:28,617
we shall choose Roosevelt.
1401
02:04:29,783 --> 02:04:33,908
Between Europe and America,
we shall choose America.
1402
02:04:39,617 --> 02:04:42,242
I duly note it, Prime Minister.
1403
02:04:50,783 --> 02:04:52,867
No way is he going to France.
1404
02:04:56,533 --> 02:04:57,742
Put him in chains.
1405
02:05:58,367 --> 02:06:00,700
A crucial day in world history,
1406
02:06:01,158 --> 02:06:03,908
the day free people had hoped for.
1407
02:06:04,075 --> 02:06:05,658
It's D-Day.
1408
02:06:07,283 --> 02:06:09,075
These pictures from France
1409
02:06:09,242 --> 02:06:10,908
reveal the Allied victory.
1410
02:06:11,075 --> 02:06:12,075
An assault led
1411
02:06:12,242 --> 02:06:14,992
by General Eisenhower's
American troops.
1412
02:06:16,158 --> 02:06:18,825
The operations
were carefully planned
1413
02:06:18,992 --> 02:06:21,242
to drive back a determined enemy.
1414
02:06:21,658 --> 02:06:24,575
Here, Prime Minister Churchill
comes ashore.
1415
02:06:24,742 --> 02:06:27,367
He has followed the operations
with justifiable pride.
1416
02:06:27,533 --> 02:06:31,242
Four years ago, the British,
defeated in the Battle of France,
1417
02:06:31,408 --> 02:06:32,867
were evacuated.
1418
02:06:33,033 --> 02:06:34,408
Now they return,
1419
02:06:34,575 --> 02:06:36,742
cheered as heroes.
1420
02:06:37,408 --> 02:06:39,158
Some are asking:
1421
02:06:39,325 --> 02:06:41,658
where is General de Gaulle?
1422
02:06:41,825 --> 02:06:42,825
General,
1423
02:06:43,242 --> 02:06:46,492
the White House is announcing
your immediate visit to Washington.
1424
02:06:47,158 --> 02:06:48,478
Have you received an invitation?
1425
02:06:48,575 --> 02:06:50,075
- No.
- So?
1426
02:06:50,533 --> 02:06:53,867
You could ask for recognition
of the Government.
1427
02:06:54,325 --> 02:06:57,783
I will not go and apply
for the post with Roosevelt.
1428
02:06:59,867 --> 02:07:03,117
But if Eisenhower were allowed
to talk to us,
1429
02:07:04,158 --> 02:07:07,617
it would make operations easier
for the Resistance fighters,
1430
02:07:07,783 --> 02:07:10,700
for Leclerc and for the Allied forces.
1431
02:07:10,867 --> 02:07:14,033
Eisenhower wants to be able
to make contact with you.
1432
02:07:17,075 --> 02:07:18,325
I have an idea.
1433
02:07:33,617 --> 02:07:35,617
Welcome to Washington, General.
1434
02:07:47,242 --> 02:07:48,492
Get back!
1435
02:07:48,950 --> 02:07:50,367
Don't stand there!
1436
02:07:54,950 --> 02:07:57,325
My country made a mistake,
1437
02:07:57,492 --> 02:07:58,492
General.
1438
02:08:00,742 --> 02:08:04,783
We thought we could
cut ourselves off from the world's chaos.
1439
02:08:04,950 --> 02:08:08,117
It's now clear
that we must take charge of it.
1440
02:08:08,408 --> 02:08:11,617
That chaos includes some 150 countries.
1441
02:08:11,783 --> 02:08:16,075
Some must do their share:
Great Britain, the USSR.
1442
02:08:17,117 --> 02:08:19,575
The others will enjoy
our protection.
1443
02:08:21,575 --> 02:08:24,992
We'll set up permanent
military bases around the world,
1444
02:08:25,158 --> 02:08:26,950
including in France.
1445
02:08:28,367 --> 02:08:32,783
On that subject, no doubt
you have some requests for me.
1446
02:08:32,950 --> 02:08:35,283
Not that I know of, Mr President.
1447
02:08:38,783 --> 02:08:42,992
I believe we still haven't
recognised your...
1448
02:08:43,492 --> 02:08:44,575
Committee.
1449
02:08:44,950 --> 02:08:49,283
Is it the CFLN?
I struggle with acronyms.
1450
02:08:49,450 --> 02:08:52,242
It is now called
"the French Government",
1451
02:08:52,408 --> 02:08:55,533
which, incidentally, offers you
a small gift.
1452
02:08:56,294 --> 02:08:58,700
A symbol of French resilience,
1453
02:08:58,867 --> 02:09:00,367
it was made in 1942
1454
02:09:00,533 --> 02:09:04,367
while we waited for the parts
to repair the real submarine.
1455
02:09:04,533 --> 02:09:05,533
Well, I never!
1456
02:09:05,867 --> 02:09:07,533
Thank you very much.
1457
02:09:08,408 --> 02:09:09,408
And...
1458
02:09:09,950 --> 02:09:11,408
- Harry?
- Here, sir.
1459
02:09:12,783 --> 02:09:13,783
For you.
1460
02:09:20,533 --> 02:09:22,200
Thank you, Mr President.
1461
02:09:32,783 --> 02:09:33,533
Yeah...
1462
02:09:33,700 --> 02:09:35,367
We're three weeks behind.
1463
02:09:36,075 --> 02:09:38,117
The President wants us in Germany,
1464
02:09:38,283 --> 02:09:40,325
he has doubts about the Paris strategy.
1465
02:09:40,950 --> 02:09:41,950
But in fact...
1466
02:09:42,117 --> 02:09:46,408
The Germans control
all the key positions in Paris.
1467
02:09:46,742 --> 02:09:48,825
They're preparing to hold out.
1468
02:09:49,117 --> 02:09:52,492
It would take a very long time,
with heavy losses,
1469
02:09:53,200 --> 02:09:54,492
to retake the city.
1470
02:09:54,658 --> 02:09:56,200
ROOSEVELT RECOGNISES DE GAULLE
1471
02:09:56,367 --> 02:09:57,533
General?
1472
02:09:59,158 --> 02:10:00,283
Mm.
1473
02:10:01,533 --> 02:10:05,283
General Eisenhower has asked
to see you when you arrive.
1474
02:10:17,742 --> 02:10:19,575
The Allies won't be long!
1475
02:10:19,742 --> 02:10:22,325
If they don't come,
there won't be enough of us.
1476
02:10:31,950 --> 02:10:33,992
At Port-Royal, the Germans got there
1477
02:10:34,158 --> 02:10:36,075
before they'd had time to finish.
1478
02:10:41,658 --> 02:10:43,200
- Inside, children.
- Why?
1479
02:10:43,367 --> 02:10:45,033
- It's dangerous, come on!
- Come here.
1480
02:10:56,742 --> 02:10:58,700
Welcome to France, General.
1481
02:10:58,867 --> 02:11:01,450
Uprising in Paris.
They've put up barricades.
1482
02:11:01,617 --> 02:11:03,658
- Who ordered them to?
- No one.
1483
02:11:03,825 --> 02:11:05,158
It was spontaneous.
1484
02:11:05,825 --> 02:11:08,367
We must get there
before the Germans slaughter them.
1485
02:11:08,533 --> 02:11:10,242
Go, go, go!
1486
02:11:11,575 --> 02:11:13,908
The Paris Mint, with us!
1487
02:11:14,450 --> 02:11:15,658
Positions!
1488
02:11:25,075 --> 02:11:26,075
Hurry up.
1489
02:11:26,200 --> 02:11:28,992
Unload the sacks,
block the main entrance.
1490
02:11:29,450 --> 02:11:30,575
Gentlemen,
1491
02:11:31,450 --> 02:11:34,742
the Council orders us
to retake control of the Mint,
1492
02:11:34,908 --> 02:11:36,367
in the name of our sovereignty.
1493
02:11:37,575 --> 02:11:38,575
We need you.
1494
02:11:38,700 --> 02:11:40,242
It's the Mint of France.
1495
02:11:43,950 --> 02:11:45,033
Thank you.
1496
02:12:26,575 --> 02:12:28,658
Right, nearly done.
1497
02:12:28,825 --> 02:12:30,325
Get ready for what's next.
1498
02:12:32,742 --> 02:12:35,367
- Dronne, Porte d'Italie.
- Received.
1499
02:12:35,533 --> 02:12:37,676
Strauss, go round by the north
and come in through Asnières.
1500
02:12:37,700 --> 02:12:39,825
- Yes.
- I'll take the Porte d'Orléans.
1501
02:12:39,992 --> 02:12:40,992
General,
1502
02:12:41,117 --> 02:12:42,742
the supply lines have been attacked.
1503
02:12:42,908 --> 02:12:44,783
Three fuel lorries have been burnt.
1504
02:12:44,950 --> 02:12:46,533
Get me the Allied commander!
1505
02:12:56,783 --> 02:12:57,783
Cherbourg: 6.
1506
02:12:59,825 --> 02:13:01,992
Angoulême: 4.
1507
02:13:02,158 --> 02:13:03,408
Lisieux: 8.
1508
02:13:07,325 --> 02:13:08,950
8,000 francs, General.
1509
02:13:13,283 --> 02:13:14,742
Where are you going?
1510
02:13:14,908 --> 02:13:17,283
It's hotting up at the Hôtel
de Ville. I'm going to help.
1511
02:13:17,450 --> 02:13:18,700
Go, go!
1512
02:13:29,325 --> 02:13:30,367
Shit.
1513
02:13:31,075 --> 02:13:32,700
Oh shit, shit, shit.
1514
02:13:44,825 --> 02:13:46,200
Come on, hurry up.
1515
02:13:47,450 --> 02:13:48,575
Paul, faster.
1516
02:13:49,075 --> 02:13:50,075
Faster!
1517
02:13:50,450 --> 02:13:51,450
General.
1518
02:13:53,450 --> 02:13:55,033
General Gerow here, go ahead.
1519
02:13:55,617 --> 02:13:57,158
This is General Leclerc.
1520
02:13:57,325 --> 02:14:00,533
Resuming our advance on Paris.
Urgently need fuel.
1521
02:14:00,700 --> 02:14:04,617
- Negative, General.
- Third Army will head north.
1522
02:14:04,783 --> 02:14:07,325
You'll go on reconnaissance
with the First
1523
02:14:07,492 --> 02:14:09,575
and be under its command.
1524
02:14:09,992 --> 02:14:11,950
But the plan is to go to Paris!
1525
02:14:12,117 --> 02:14:13,492
I repeat:
1526
02:14:14,033 --> 02:14:15,825
the plan has changed.
1527
02:14:19,200 --> 02:14:20,742
General Leclerc...
1528
02:14:22,533 --> 02:14:23,867
Do you read me?
1529
02:14:24,492 --> 02:14:26,033
General Leclerc...
1530
02:14:27,075 --> 02:14:28,200
Please.
1531
02:14:36,242 --> 02:14:37,867
General de Gaulle.
1532
02:14:38,825 --> 02:14:39,825
General.
1533
02:14:40,950 --> 02:14:42,158
General Eisenhower,
1534
02:14:42,325 --> 02:14:45,617
an uprising is taking place in Paris
at this very moment.
1535
02:14:45,783 --> 02:14:49,575
Paris is too dangerous,
I won't risk it.
1536
02:14:49,742 --> 02:14:52,742
Then let's send Leclerc's division alone.
1537
02:14:53,658 --> 02:14:57,450
It takes more than one division
to take Paris. Impossible.
1538
02:14:57,617 --> 02:15:00,783
If we don't step in,
it will be a bloodbath.
1539
02:15:00,950 --> 02:15:03,575
We will never forgive ourselves.
1540
02:15:04,658 --> 02:15:06,367
I'm sorry, General.
1541
02:15:07,408 --> 02:15:08,867
I have orders.
1542
02:15:14,742 --> 02:15:18,200
They're warming up the engines.
1543
02:15:43,367 --> 02:15:44,950
Save your fuel.
1544
02:15:45,242 --> 02:15:46,742
Or give it to the others!
1545
02:15:50,075 --> 02:15:52,742
General, me and my Spaniards,
we've got enough
1546
02:15:52,908 --> 02:15:54,242
to make it to Paris.
1547
02:16:07,575 --> 02:16:09,742
What is Force L's first duty?
1548
02:16:14,950 --> 02:16:17,325
Dronne, take all your men.
1549
02:16:17,492 --> 02:16:19,575
Go whichever way you like.
Go for it!
1550
02:16:21,283 --> 02:16:22,367
Let's go!
1551
02:16:27,492 --> 02:16:30,367
- Tell the Parisians to hold on!
- We'll be there tomorrow.
1552
02:17:02,616 --> 02:17:03,658
General,
1553
02:17:03,950 --> 02:17:06,408
Leclerc has sent a company to Paris.
1554
02:17:08,366 --> 02:17:11,283
He has disregarded our instructions.
1555
02:17:11,450 --> 02:17:13,491
This is unacceptable!
1556
02:17:13,658 --> 02:17:15,908
I intend to redeploy his division
1557
02:17:16,075 --> 02:17:18,366
and relieve him of his command.
1558
02:17:20,033 --> 02:17:24,033
He's only doing his duty
to his country, General.
1559
02:17:26,450 --> 02:17:27,491
General...
1560
02:17:38,366 --> 02:17:41,033
This is a direct order to Leclerc.
1561
02:17:41,783 --> 02:17:43,866
And give his whole division
1562
02:17:44,575 --> 02:17:46,658
what it needs to reach Paris.
1563
02:17:47,616 --> 02:17:48,783
Yes, sir.
1564
02:18:02,991 --> 02:18:04,408
Paul!
1565
02:18:19,825 --> 02:18:20,950
- You OK?
- No!
1566
02:18:21,116 --> 02:18:23,950
He's bleeding out.
We've got to get him out of here!
1567
02:18:25,491 --> 02:18:27,658
- Try to cover us!
- We'll catch you up.
1568
02:18:46,366 --> 02:18:48,241
Here! There's almost nothing left.
1569
02:19:15,325 --> 02:19:16,741
Surrender!
1570
02:19:34,825 --> 02:19:38,408
Let it be known that we are undefeated,
we, the Free French.
1571
02:19:41,366 --> 02:19:44,533
We do not submit,
we do not retreat.
1572
02:19:45,408 --> 02:19:47,128
Our children won't
reproach us for anything.
1573
02:20:08,575 --> 02:20:11,242
Here's the back-up, make room!
1574
02:20:16,117 --> 02:20:17,825
They're at the end of the street!
1575
02:20:24,450 --> 02:20:26,783
The Germans are dead ahead,
300 metres!
1576
02:20:27,867 --> 02:20:30,867
- A platoon over there, 300 metres.
- Be ready.
1577
02:21:17,367 --> 02:21:19,575
On my school exercise books
1578
02:21:20,617 --> 02:21:23,408
On my desk and on the trees
1579
02:21:23,992 --> 02:21:26,533
On the sand, on the snow
1580
02:21:27,325 --> 02:21:29,242
I write your name
1581
02:21:29,825 --> 02:21:32,325
On every page I've read
1582
02:21:32,783 --> 02:21:36,117
On every blank page
1583
02:21:36,283 --> 02:21:37,450
Stone, blood
1584
02:21:37,992 --> 02:21:40,117
Paper or ash
1585
02:21:40,283 --> 02:21:41,408
I write your name
1586
02:21:43,242 --> 02:21:45,033
On the gilded images
1587
02:21:45,200 --> 02:21:47,450
On the weapons of warriors
1588
02:21:47,617 --> 02:21:50,117
On the crown of kings
1589
02:21:50,700 --> 02:21:52,033
I write your name
1590
02:21:52,450 --> 02:21:55,158
On the jungle and the desert
1591
02:21:55,742 --> 02:21:58,200
On the nests, on the broom
1592
02:21:58,367 --> 02:22:00,158
On the echo of my childhood
1593
02:22:00,325 --> 02:22:01,867
I write your name
1594
02:22:02,367 --> 02:22:04,575
On my shattered refuges
1595
02:22:05,158 --> 02:22:07,533
On my crumbled lighthouses
1596
02:22:07,700 --> 02:22:10,283
On the walls of my boredom
1597
02:22:10,575 --> 02:22:12,075
I write your name
1598
02:22:12,242 --> 02:22:15,033
On absence without desire
1599
02:22:15,200 --> 02:22:17,158
On naked solitude
1600
02:22:17,325 --> 02:22:19,742
On the steps of death
1601
02:22:19,908 --> 02:22:21,033
I write your name
1602
02:22:22,325 --> 02:22:24,325
On health restored
1603
02:22:24,492 --> 02:22:26,617
On danger gone away
1604
02:22:26,783 --> 02:22:29,283
On hope without memory
1605
02:22:29,450 --> 02:22:31,492
I write your name
1606
02:22:31,658 --> 02:22:34,492
And by the power of a word
1607
02:22:35,408 --> 02:22:37,617
I begin my life again
1608
02:22:38,492 --> 02:22:41,158
I was born to know you
1609
02:22:42,200 --> 02:22:43,908
To name you
1610
02:22:44,075 --> 02:22:45,075
Liberty
1611
02:23:37,242 --> 02:23:39,533
- Bravo!
- We fought too!
1612
02:24:08,408 --> 02:24:09,617
Hey, General!
1613
02:24:09,783 --> 02:24:13,158
- Carry on.
- That'll make kindling for the winter.
1614
02:25:13,200 --> 02:25:14,575
General,
1615
02:25:15,200 --> 02:25:18,992
it's time to proclaim
the restoration of the Republic.
1616
02:25:19,450 --> 02:25:20,992
France
1617
02:25:21,950 --> 02:25:24,492
never stopped fighting.
1618
02:25:24,658 --> 02:25:29,033
The Republic never ceased to exist.
1619
02:26:22,783 --> 02:26:24,075
Mr President.
1620
02:26:24,450 --> 02:26:26,242
Prime Minister.
1621
02:26:29,908 --> 02:26:31,408
We've come a long way
1622
02:26:32,158 --> 02:26:34,825
since I received you
1623
02:26:35,533 --> 02:26:36,950
alone,
1624
02:26:37,867 --> 02:26:39,325
in my office.
1625
02:26:39,950 --> 02:26:43,617
That day, you alone decided
the fate of France.
1626
02:26:44,908 --> 02:26:47,325
Well, you make
1627
02:26:48,117 --> 02:26:49,867
a better host
1628
02:26:50,533 --> 02:26:51,783
than guest.
1629
02:27:02,492 --> 02:27:04,283
Prime Minister,
1630
02:27:04,450 --> 02:27:05,450
today,
1631
02:27:05,950 --> 02:27:08,283
I propose an alliance to you.
1632
02:27:08,908 --> 02:27:10,908
To the east and to the west,
1633
02:27:11,075 --> 02:27:12,325
two great powers
1634
02:27:12,492 --> 02:27:14,158
are going to rule the world,
1635
02:27:14,325 --> 02:27:16,200
but our two nations can
1636
02:27:16,367 --> 02:27:18,867
guarantee their independence together
1637
02:27:19,033 --> 02:27:22,283
if their friendship comes above all else.
1638
02:27:24,200 --> 02:27:25,825
Mr President...
1639
02:27:27,450 --> 02:27:28,575
Er...
1640
02:27:29,033 --> 02:27:32,200
In politics, as in my strategy,
1641
02:27:32,367 --> 02:27:35,492
I prefer to win over the strongest
1642
02:27:36,158 --> 02:27:40,492
rather than stand in their way.
1643
02:27:41,492 --> 02:27:46,158
I make a point of being involved
in all the world's affairs.
1644
02:27:47,325 --> 02:27:49,908
I agree to nothing for nothing.
1645
02:27:50,658 --> 02:27:55,200
And I always collect a few dividends
for my country.
1646
02:27:57,617 --> 02:27:59,242
That's the way of the world.
1647
02:28:06,117 --> 02:28:07,325
I see.
1648
02:28:11,825 --> 02:28:13,158
Let's walk on.
1649
02:28:32,908 --> 02:28:35,908
When I see our soldiers
1650
02:28:36,075 --> 02:28:40,450
Marching gaily, band in front
1651
02:28:40,617 --> 02:28:43,658
Ah, I say, marking time:
1652
02:28:43,825 --> 02:28:47,492
"As of old, France is beautiful"
1653
02:28:47,658 --> 02:28:49,075
As in days gone by
1654
02:28:49,242 --> 02:28:51,283
Soldiers, I see again
1655
02:28:51,450 --> 02:28:55,742
- For you.
- Carnot celebrating victory
1656
02:28:55,908 --> 02:28:58,992
March on to glory
1657
02:28:59,158 --> 02:29:00,617
My dear children
1658
02:29:00,783 --> 02:29:07,742
Come back triumphant
1659
02:39:21,700 --> 02:39:24,242
