00:00Many interesting people come to Koologon, like Major Bradbury, schoolmaster, ex-commando,
00:19two military crosses, the Croix de Guerre.
00:22That's me, that's my uncle, General Bradbury.
00:24You know, he's the son of a Viscount.
00:25You mean he's a real live lord?
00:27Bradbury, a scholar and a gentleman, definitely a VIP.
00:33Koichi is very impressed.
00:35Is this important?
00:37It says, welcome to my classroom, Mr. Bradbury, sir.
00:41That's very nice of you, Koichi, thank you very much.
00:43Nine-year-old boys are allergic to hear us.
00:46I remember once in France, a hell of a battle was going on.
00:49Ooh, they were throwing the lot at us.
00:55But none of this really happened.
00:57Bradbury was never a soldier.
01:00He is a fraud, a faker, living in a fantasy world.
01:06A paper tiger.
01:07It was at the party, by sheer accident, that the paper tiger appeared to grow claws.
01:28When a man pretends to be something more than he is, he usually hurts no one but himself.
01:45But when Bradbury and the boy are kidnapped by terrorists, when an act of courage can mean the difference between life and death,
01:52phony credentials, phony credentials don't count for much.
01:55They can find no record of Bradbury ever having served in the British army.
02:00David Niven has played many roles in a distinguished career.
02:10As Bradbury, the paper tiger, he gives his most memorable performance.
02:16But they'll murder us if they find out.
02:18My father will send airplanes to search for us.
02:21And as soon as they see them, they'll shoot us.
02:23Just like that.
02:23And in paper tiger, a new star is born.
02:29His name is Ando.
02:31He is nine years old.
02:33Ando doesn't mean to be a scene stealer.
02:35It just happens.
02:36What on earth are you doing?
02:38My father said I should always be able to look at myself in the mirror and not be ashamed.
02:45I have not been trusting him with Bradbury after all the many brave things he has done.
