00:00:11The End
00:00:35One hundred years ago, Italy was not a united country as it is today.
00:00:39It was divided into separate states, governed by independent rulers or foreign viceroys,
00:00:45most of whom were content with the way things were.
00:00:48The king of Sardinia and Piedmont, however, by name Victor Emmanuel,
00:00:52had greater ambitions, encouraged by his prime minister, Cavour.
00:00:57Their idea was to unite Italy under their own rule.
00:01:00To do this, they would have to conquer Venice,
00:01:04the central band of states held by the Pope at Rome,
00:01:06and the kingdom of Naples and Sicily to the south.
00:01:10This kingdom had as its ruler the Bourbon Francis II.
00:01:13He was young and good-hearted, but powerless in the hands of corrupt prime ministers and generals.
00:01:20All over his kingdom, people wanted to throw off his government
00:01:24and unite with the northern states, whether in a kingdom or a republic, was not important.
00:01:29If only Italy could be free and won.
00:01:33In Palermo, the capital of Sicily,
00:01:36a group of conspirators was gathered in the cellar of a monastery
00:01:40early one morning in spring,
00:01:43waiting to begin the revolt that would lead to freedom.
00:01:49What time is it?
00:01:50You've got the watch, haven't you?
00:02:01It's now ten minutes after six.
00:02:04What time sunrise?
00:02:05The sacristan is going to give us a signal at sunrise.
00:02:08I know.
00:02:16Listen, it's him coming.
00:02:30The monastery's all surrounded.
00:02:32What?
00:02:32We're surrounded.
00:02:33Surrounded by who?
00:02:34Policemen, spies, soldiers.
00:02:36Oh, yes.
00:02:36Let's stay here and hide.
00:02:37We'll be safe this way.
00:02:38And the rest of them who are waiting for the signal to begin,
00:02:40the ones at Polaro and the ones at St. Anna.
00:02:42Then what shall we do?
00:02:43That's all, Lee.
00:02:44You go ahead of us to the bell tower and start ringing the bell.
00:02:47The square's not big.
00:02:48If we can manage to surprise the spies and soldiers,
00:02:51we'll be able to reach the streets.
00:02:52Then we can get people to join us.
00:02:53Let's go.
00:02:54Come on.
00:02:54Down with the boys.
00:03:01Shh.
00:03:02Be quiet.
00:03:03Close the trap door.
00:03:04Hurry.
00:03:05Hurry on up.
00:03:05Quick and come on.
00:03:13Bring the flag.
00:03:14Get a move on.
00:03:17Hurry.
00:03:23You go and send us to the bell tower.
00:03:25Be quiet.
00:03:25Go this way.
00:03:26We'll go out to the courtyard.
00:03:28Come on.
00:03:28Hurry.
00:03:30Hurry.
00:03:31Hurry.
00:03:32Hurry.
00:03:34Hurry.
00:03:37Hurry.
00:03:38Hurry.
00:03:56Hurry.
00:03:57Bring the bell.
00:03:57Get the flag out!
00:04:05You over there! Ready!
00:04:34Fire!
00:04:37Move out, man!
00:04:40Get in there!
00:04:58Shoot it now!
00:05:22Right about face!
00:05:25Front rank, kneel!
00:05:27Ready!
00:05:29Aim!
00:05:32Fire!
00:05:37I'm not dead!
00:05:39I've got a right to go free!
00:05:41I'm not dead!
00:05:42I've got a right to go free!
00:05:45Now you're free!
00:05:52The cries of these martyrs to freedom and national unity were not to go unheeded.
00:05:58In Genoa, a man named Giuseppe Garibaldi had heard them.
00:06:04Garibaldi had already fought many battles in the cause of United Italy.
00:06:08He had helped to make a republic with its capital at Rome for a short while.
00:06:12But the forces of reaction, and even Cavour, had soon put an end to that brief moment of freedom.
00:06:20Now, Garibaldi was more cautious in his actions.
00:06:23And yet he could not ignore the meaning of the conspiracy in Palermo.
00:06:27He began to be surrounded by adherents of Italian unity.
00:06:31To certain men who had fought with him before, but who were now in other armies,
00:06:35he sent his trusted agents to find out which ones were willing to leave everything and fight with him again.
00:07:04Here he is. We've brought him.
00:07:05Oh, Giuseppe Garibaldi. It's good to see you.
00:07:08I'm glad to find you well, General.
00:07:10Hello, Nino. Hello, no.
00:07:13Guzmaroli, I can imagine, has told you why you're here.
00:07:15No. Sit down, then.
00:07:18I was sitting in a cafe in Alessandria when I found him standing in front of me.
00:07:22The General wants you. Come on.
00:07:23He didn't even allow me to go home.
00:07:24He dragged me to the station, pushed me under the first train, and here I am.
00:07:27May I go now, General? Yes.
00:07:31You've never lost contact with your companions in Siena?
00:07:34Of course not.
00:07:36Then you must go down there to make recruits.
00:07:39Push all the way down the valley into Umbria.
00:07:41Win over everyone that's possible.
00:07:45Push on to Perugia to find out if the people of Perugia are willing to fight for liberty.
00:07:52But to be able to do this, you say I need money and firearms.
00:07:57Well, General, to do all that without money and arms.
00:07:59What are you saying?
00:08:01Do those people want to help or not?
00:08:03If they really want to, a few sticks and stones would be sufficient.
00:08:06Of course they'd be sufficient with you directing the music.
00:08:09You mean you don't want to go?
00:08:10Why don't you go?
00:08:11I don't want to see myself in cartoons.
00:08:13Hear people say that out of conceit I lied to Garabaldi.
00:08:18Blessed Florentines!
00:08:19Do-nothings and cowards!
00:08:25Don't listen to him.
00:08:27We all know what he's like.
00:08:28Never manages to be calm for long.
00:08:31Anyway, at this moment, he's only useful for attracting attention elsewhere.
00:08:40We'll talk about it tomorrow.
00:08:42Yes, General, but...
00:08:43Will you also take care to leave me your address?
00:08:49But tonight you must sleep over there, on that couch.
00:08:52Gotta tell you the truth, I ought to go back to Alessandria.
00:08:55If I don't show up at barracks, I'll be considered a desert.
00:08:59Don't worry about it.
00:09:01You're staying with me.
00:09:04Do you know where we're bound?
00:09:05No, General.
00:09:08They're bound for Sicily.
00:09:10Sicily?
00:09:12Palermo has risen.
00:09:14The revolt is spreading over the island.
00:09:18The Bourbon Kingdom is falling to pieces.
00:09:21And then, all roads do lead to Rome.
00:09:26I don't know how a road going through Sicily can be the most erect.
00:09:30And I doubt whether it is the smoothest road.
00:09:34Italians, the Sicilians are battling the enemies of Italy for Italy.
00:09:40Italians, every citizen has the duty to go to their aid.
00:09:44With words and guns and money.
00:09:46Above all, with force of decision.
00:09:49A host of brave soldiers, my tried companions on the field of furious battle, are marching with me to the
00:09:55rescue.
00:09:57Italy knows who they are.
00:09:58They're the same men who have never failed us in the hour of peril.
00:10:02True hearted and brave comrades.
00:10:04They have dedicated their lives to their homeland.
00:10:08They will give her their last drop of blood without thought of other reward than a stainless conscience.
00:10:18Italy and Victor Emmanuel, that was their cry when they crossed the Ticino.
00:10:22Italy and Victor Emmanuel will fill the air of Sicily from cavern to mountain peak.
00:10:29At this fateful call to war, echoing from the northern ranges of Italy to Rome itself, the tottering throne of
00:10:37tyranny will fall.
00:10:38And to a man, the courageous sons of Sicily will rise in triumph.
00:10:44To arms, once and for all, put an end to the misery of so many centuries.
00:10:49Be it proved to all the world, O Roman children, that your living in this, our Italy, has not been
00:10:57a lie.
00:11:03Excuse me, I'm a newspaper man. It's urgent.
00:11:05I was here before you.
00:11:06Yes, you were. Please.
00:11:12One moment, please.
00:11:16Listen to what's in this telegram.
00:11:18Times, London.
00:11:19Garibaldi embarked tonight with an army of 1,000 volunteers on two ships Vixio requisitioned.
00:11:23Stop. Believe General wants to set his compass for Sicily. Stop.
00:11:26Feelings in diplomatic and political circles running high. Stop.
00:11:29We'll send details.
00:11:30Quick, put it ahead of the others.
00:11:40The march toward Italian unity was underway.
00:11:43All over Italy, all over Europe, people held their breath in suspense.
00:11:49Cabour and Victor Emmanuel had not been informed of the attack on Sicily.
00:11:53Although Garibaldi had used the king's name as his rallying cry,
00:11:57would he still be faithful to monarchy if he conquered Sicily?
00:12:01From Naples, the young Bourbon king sent one of his older and supposedly more experienced generals, named Landy,
00:12:08to meet the 1,000 volunteers and stop them from bringing aid to the patriots in Palermo and throughout the
00:12:14island.
00:12:16I've come to tell your excellency everything we've been able to learn.
00:12:20The brigands disembarked at Marsala towards midday on the 11th of May.
00:12:24That much is known by everyone.
00:12:26Their army has around 1,000 men, most of them ordinary people.
00:12:31They say a few are wearing strange uniforms, but ordinary people still.
00:12:34And it's said, uh, they're commanded by a certain, a certain, uh, Garubardo.
00:12:41They're not too sure of what he's called.
00:12:43Oh, yes they are. Garibaldi.
00:12:46Your excellency knows everything then, huh?
00:12:48Don't you worry about what I know.
00:12:49You tell me what you know, if you please.
00:12:52Oh, they're badly armed, your excellency.
00:12:53That much I can guarantee you.
00:12:55Got two very old cannons and a couple of big guns, a lot older even.
00:12:59They loaded them onto carts they stole at Marsala, and now they're having trouble hauling them.
00:13:04Yes, sir. And last night they slept at Rampigallo, on the land of Baron Mistretta.
00:13:10His nephew, Antonio Forte, is his name, your excellency.
00:13:14And don't believe I won't catch up with him, your excellency, when the time comes for traitors.
00:13:19Well, anyway, this Forte gave them a pile of supplies enough to last them the whole week.
00:13:23And where are they right now?
00:13:24Along the road to Saleni, excellency.
00:13:26Are you telling the truth?
00:13:28Your excellency, my word of honor.
00:13:30This is where they are, general.
00:13:36Adamo, Adamo.
00:13:38Garibaldi's at Salemi.
00:13:39Round up everybody you can.
00:13:41Go down to the mill and get all of the flour.
00:13:43Quick!
00:13:47Turidu! Turidu!
00:13:50Here I am. What is it?
00:13:52To the mill, quick!
00:13:53I'm going to Garibaldi at Salemi.
00:13:55Peputo!
00:13:59Get down to the mill, quick!
00:14:03Throw that one over there.
00:14:12Another guard up here, quick!
00:14:13Go on, go on, he'll lead you to the hiding place!
00:14:26And don't try to pretend that you were ignorant of these peasants intention to attack and sack that mill.
00:14:32I'm a military tactician, not a policeman, but I should send you to the firing squad.
00:14:36And father, that goes for you too.
00:14:38Yes, father.
00:14:39We've got a belly full of priests and friars, stirring up rebellion against his majesty.
00:14:46Fine religion you're teaching to people!
00:14:48I can't see how we're supposed to be responsible to you in such things.
00:14:53And may I also remind you that I don't accept observations from anyone else but my bishop.
00:14:58Well now, we'll soon be hearing you quote St. Thomas on the rights of people to assassinate tyrants, won't we?
00:15:07I don't believe I have to quote him, you already know what he says.
00:15:11Fine!
00:15:13Starting from today, if my troops don't get the flour they need, the two of you will answer for it!
00:15:17You may go!
00:15:24Bring in that captain again.
00:15:25Yes, sir.
00:15:34Excellency, Garibaldi and his outlaws have left Selenia and are going towards Vita.
00:15:58That's it there, General. That's the road that goes to Palermo.
00:16:03Between here and there, the land lies all the same way.
00:16:07Up and down hills and mountains.
00:16:11You see that hill over there?
00:16:13The one where my men are?
00:16:15Right.
00:16:16Well above it and behind is Kalatafimi.
00:16:19See?
00:16:21It's the town where General Landy and his troops arrived last night.
00:16:24Are there many troops?
00:16:26Yes, sir.
00:16:29What are they doing?
00:16:30Those vagabonds.
00:16:32Are they eating?
00:16:33Looks like they've come down here for a picnic.
00:16:35Well, we'll give them a better appetite.
00:16:37Make their stomachs bigger by a hole or two.
00:16:39Or give them a shot to help them digest.
00:16:42Look at them. Look at them.
00:16:44Rag pickers, scum.
00:16:48Here's some bread, a piece of cheese and a few olives.
00:16:50Fine for me.
00:16:55Thanks.
00:16:56Does anyone happen to have some salt?
00:16:58Sure, General.
00:17:00Here's some.
00:17:01Any thanks.
00:17:08This Sicilian bread is good.
00:17:19They blow a good bugle, don't they?
00:17:22Why don't I let them hear our sounds?
00:17:24Where's my bugler?
00:17:28General, I've explored the terrain.
00:17:30Scaling that hill is hard labor.
00:17:31And scaling those terraces is impossible.
00:17:33Do you want to accept combat here?
00:17:34Yes, certainly.
00:17:36Ah, but Bixio.
00:17:37The terrain is difficult.
00:17:39But it's favorable.
00:17:40The fact it's uphill won't allow the enemy to use to best advantage the forces he's strongest in.
00:17:44Rifles and artillery.
00:17:46Besides, Bixio.
00:17:48We make Italy now.
00:17:50Or we die.
00:17:57Bugles!
00:17:58Let those soldiers hear the sound of our alarm clock.
00:18:11Now, my friends, it's time to give those boobin gentlemen over there a couple of whacks.
00:18:15General, you want me to call back that fool?
00:18:20Let him go. He has a right to his inspiration.
00:18:22Look, it's midday to the minute.
00:18:24I don't want anyone to shoot without my specific order.
00:18:27To fire from a distance is a sign of fear.
00:18:36Look at them! They can't stand still for an instant!
00:18:38Look at them!
00:18:40Say it all day!
00:18:41Let them be!
00:18:42Hey, wait!
00:18:45Hey, wait!
00:18:47Hey, wait!
00:18:53Bye, wait!
00:19:00Sorry!
00:19:05The police said he was too late.
00:19:08And they gave us
00:19:21Right in the way, girl!
00:19:22Right in the way, girl!
00:19:26Giuseppe Garibaldi, don't despise this monk's habit I'm wearing,
00:19:30because I tell you in truth, it will be stronger than your armor.
00:19:33And don't despise this crucifix.
00:19:35You'll see it flash among the enemy more terrible than your sword.
00:19:37God bless you.
00:20:03What do I carry?
00:20:11What do I carry?
00:20:23What do I carry?
00:20:34What do I carry?
00:20:37What do I carry?
00:20:37Then, I'll order the counter.
00:20:47Quick, take this message to General Landy.
00:20:49Need reinforcements immediately.
00:21:23Get to the ground!
00:21:25Get to the ground!
00:21:26Get to the ground!
00:21:28Hold the ground!
00:21:59What have you done, men?
00:22:02Didn't I tell you you must go at the enemy easy?
00:22:05Get your lines in order. Get your wind back.
00:22:09They do exactly what I tell you.
00:22:10General, they've captured your flag. They've captured your flag.
00:22:14That's nothing at all. Nothing. Some gun is up the hill in that direction.
00:22:27Aim. Aim before you shoot. Take aim, I tell you. Don't waste your ammunition.
00:22:36They're running short. Look at them.
00:22:44Your Excellency, Major Sforza sent you this flag that was taken from the enemy
00:22:48and says to inform you that the commander of the invaders has been killed.
00:22:51Major Sforza asked for reinforcements.
00:22:53What do you mean? He's taken the flag?
00:22:55He's finished Gary Bali and he still wants reinforcements?
00:22:59Bugles, sound the attack.
00:23:06Torn. Torn! Torn! Torn! Torn! Torn! Torn! Torn! Torn!
00:23:21Follow me!
00:23:37Get up there! Get up over that tariff!
00:23:52Get up over that tariff!
00:24:22Get up over that tariff!
00:24:26Get up over that tariff!
00:24:34Get up over that tariff!
00:24:42Let's go!
00:24:44Come on!
00:25:23Well, look, Giuseppe Garibaldi, look at all we've been able to do.
00:25:27Brave boys.
00:26:11They're leaving town.
00:26:12Delfine.
00:26:15Delfine.
00:26:16Delfine.
00:26:25Delfine.
00:26:31Delfine.
00:26:32Delfine.
00:26:33Delfine.
00:26:46Delfine.
00:26:48Delfine.
00:26:54Delfine.
00:27:47Excuse me, is Garibaldi among you somewhere?
00:27:50Right here.
00:27:51General?
00:27:52The church is full of soldiers from the Bourbon army.
00:27:55They're seriously wounded and we trust to your compassion.
00:27:58Compassion?
00:27:59What do you mean compassion?
00:28:01Aren't your wounded soldiers men like us?
00:28:03All Italians?
00:28:04Italians and our brothers?
00:28:07Come and see them.
00:28:25Oh, Roger.
00:28:49Brave men.
00:28:52You fought bravely.
00:29:07Be sure that you provide the wounded men with every care you possibly can.
00:29:11And tell them that they're free to return to their homes or to fight with us.
00:29:15And they're free to return to their regiments if they like and fight again against us.
00:29:23No, no, please.
00:29:25Please, not that way. We're not the tyrants you used to.
00:29:31We're just human beings who eat and drink like you.
00:29:34We must kiss each other, so.
00:29:36On the cheeks.
00:29:38We're brothers.
00:29:40Italians, people.
00:29:42If my memory serves me right, I think the temple of Sugesta is near here.
00:29:46You learn Latin and Greek in school, eh?
00:29:48Sugesta's not far off, is it?
00:29:50Just a half-hour ride. If you want, we can take you on the donkey.
00:29:52Let's go.
00:29:52Go, go!
00:30:09There it is. We're here!
00:30:14Come on!
00:30:18Come on!
00:30:20Up the hill!
00:30:21Hiya!
00:30:28On foot!
00:30:31Come on!
00:30:40Give me some wine!
00:30:49Hey, let's go!
00:30:55Hey, what are you doing?
00:30:57After all that ride, don't I deserve a drink?
00:30:58Hey, if you really want a drink,
00:31:00I've got some wine from Mount Etna.
00:31:02It'll bend your knees double.
00:31:04You haven't seen anything.
00:31:06You've had enough to drink.
00:31:08Alright, have a drink, but don't take it all, see?
00:31:15Don't lean on me.
00:31:16How can it be that people who were able to put up
00:31:19a temple like this are reduced to such poverty today?
00:31:25Thus casually and unafraid,
00:31:27Garibaldi and his thousand volunteers
00:31:29moved on toward Palermo.
00:31:32A small detachment was sent out in another direction
00:31:35while most of the volunteers,
00:31:37joined by Sicilian patriots,
00:31:39moved through the bush and back country
00:31:41to within sight of the capital.
00:31:48Hold!
00:31:49Who goes there?
00:31:54It's Garibaldi!
00:31:56It's Garibaldi!
00:31:57It's Garibaldi!
00:31:58Come Garibaldi!
00:32:00Come Garibaldi!
00:32:03Come Garibaldi!
00:32:04Come Garibaldi!
00:32:08Come Garibaldi!
00:32:09The diversion has worked!
00:32:11Oh?
00:32:12Look what's in the Palermo newspaper today!
00:32:15Let's see.
00:32:16The soldiers of General Merkel
00:32:19have put to flight Garibaldi's vagabonds
00:32:22along the road to Corleone.
00:32:24The pirates have disappeared into the mountains.
00:32:26The criminals who at the arrival of Garibaldi
00:32:29joined in with his bandits to promote anarchy and murder
00:32:31shall not go free and unpunished.
00:32:33The government of His Majesty the King
00:32:35guarantees to restore the law and order
00:32:37to which good citizens aspire.
00:32:53Palermo!
00:33:04Today, General, I know at last
00:33:06we shall see the end of the rule of tyranny
00:33:08and hypocrisy under which oppression is called
00:33:10liberty, abuse justice,
00:33:11scorn is called love, and declare consciousness...
00:33:14Let's hope so.
00:33:15And now, Bixiog,
00:33:18to Palermo.
00:33:21To Palermo?
00:33:23Or we die, General.
00:33:30Garibaldi is coming!
00:33:31The bandits!
00:33:32Garibaldi and the bandits!
00:33:34Garibaldi!
00:33:34Sound the alarm!
00:33:36Sound the alarm!
00:33:38Sound the alarm!
00:33:40Garibaldi!
00:33:42Garibaldi!
00:33:44Garibaldi!
00:33:44Garibaldi!
00:33:54Garibaldi!
00:33:57Garibaldi!
00:34:01Garibaldi!
00:34:02Garibaldi!
00:34:03Garibaldi!
00:34:04Garibaldi!
00:34:05Garibaldi!
00:34:06Garibaldi!
00:34:07Garibaldi!
00:34:08Garibaldi!
00:34:09Garibaldi!
00:34:10Garibaldi!
00:34:11Garibaldi!
00:34:11Garibaldi!
00:34:12Garibaldi!
00:34:12Garibaldi!
00:34:13Garibaldi!
00:34:14Oh, my God.
00:39:13Good morning, gentlemen.
00:39:55General Garibaldi, we'll be right back.
00:40:15We're right back.
00:40:41We're right back.
00:40:43upon and request his commands. General, if we could possibly, how shall I say it, take a shortcut to
00:40:52fair and honorable conditions, so to speak. I am certain, we are certain, that we can stipulate a
00:40:59truce, whereafter, with the help of God, and a little peace, and men's anger placated. Fine. It
00:41:07will never be my fault if this truce isn't stipulated here immediately. Please tell me
00:41:13what your desires are. We've already got them written. Read them, Colonel.
00:41:25That drinking water be restored immediately to the castle. That's the first thing we ask. Fine, agreed to.
00:41:33That medicines be sent to the castle for the troops that are sick and wounded. With all my
00:41:37heart. That exchange of prisoners must take place immediately. Surely.
00:41:46Will you share this orange with me? Thank you.
00:41:51Thank you, sir. Yes, but you will have to hand over the hostages taken by General Lahr in Palermo,
00:41:57and now under guard in the castle. I don't have powers to treat for the hostages, but I assure you
00:42:04on my honor, they're receiving all care, and that his good majesty is sure to put them at liberty,
00:42:09General Garibaldi, the moment I've seen him. You must also evacuate the city. But, listen to me,
00:42:15I'm telling you what my conditions are now.
00:42:19Evacuate the city, withdraw your troops from the castle, and I will allow you to make camp at Mount
00:42:27Pellegrino. Agreed, then?
00:42:29Uh, yes.
00:42:40Garibaldi and his thousand now found that movement along the northern coast of Sicily,
00:42:44over toward the mainland of Italy, was very difficult.
00:42:47The Bourbon troops clung desperately to their last strongholds, but the Garibaldinos drove
00:42:54them out and pushed on to within sight of the Calabrian coast, across the blue strait of Messina.
00:43:01At the lighthouse, the general was forced to wait.
00:43:05Cavour, and perhaps also Victor Emmanuel now, was becoming alarmed by the fact that Republican
00:43:10forces throughout Italy were using Garibaldi's conquests for their own purposes.
00:43:15Even though he was faithful to United Italy, would he remain faithful to monarchy and refuse
00:43:22to support a republic?
00:43:45Pellegrino, was่am to Lula, who wasn't the spunemar.
00:44:00I have been a while for this year, like the nuclear bomb, and I've been to the
00:44:15what is it look look isn't that the general yes it's Garibaldi watch out
00:44:27there hey they must be important well here we are sir
00:44:43this way please
00:44:54who's he looks like an officer in civilian clothes
00:45:02good day sir
00:45:07I have the honor to deliver to you a letter from his majesty
00:45:16quiet give me a glass of wine I've got a dry throat who is he an adjutant of King Victor
00:45:20Emmanuel
00:45:24you know what the king is asking me to do he asks you not to cross over the strait
00:45:29you must know that his majesty was unable to approve of your expedition and that he he wished to remain
00:45:35completely outside of it I've always liked Victor Emmanuel you've gone from one victory
00:45:41to another we've been told that you've run many risks personally his majesty at Torino has been
00:45:47expressing his doubts about attempting to make a landing on the coast of Calabria Francis II still has a
00:45:53first-rate army and the neapolitan navy is one of the best I in no way deny
00:46:01that there are difficulties but when a people want their liberty
00:46:06no soldiers can keep them from getting it
00:46:12his majesty writes as your king without any hesitation I can say that if you dare disobey him because others
00:46:18tell you it's your duty to Italy to do so I've always said that I liked and esteemed Victor Emmanuel
00:46:26it's a shame that he has such advisors around him thank you you may tell him
00:46:39I'll send my reply for his majesty to where you'll stay
00:46:49who's Maroli who's Maroli that's me hurry
00:47:20what's going on wish we could find out
00:47:23Minotti you'll go to your father try to find out something try to explain to him how we feel please
00:47:30all right
00:47:36I mean
00:47:39What is it Minotti nothing nothing father
00:47:50When are we going to Calabria
00:47:53When yes when
00:47:57You see father
00:47:58that's what all of us who are sitting around without anything to do are asking
00:48:02a few hundred feet and there's a few hundred feet of salt water I know
00:48:05but across it they're well fortified
00:48:07their artillery is waiting
00:48:0820,000 men are expecting us
00:48:10we know that very well
00:48:11furthermore
00:48:12to cross the strait means to take the flames of revolution
00:48:15to the continent of Europe
00:48:18did you know that Napoleon the third has proposed to the English a joint naval action to block us in
00:48:23Sicily
00:48:24that's why we've got to be quick and act before they try to
00:48:26I know
00:48:27I know I know
00:48:29but I don't think that the English are going to do it
00:48:31You're right that waiting puts us in danger
00:48:33but in the meantime
00:48:36I've got other kinds of worries
00:48:38I'm not going to lead a single soldier of our army to a massacre
00:48:41even if we're willing to try anything
00:48:44the people of Sicily want to be united to Piedmont
00:48:47because they want to be sure that the liberty they've won will not
00:48:50I know that
00:48:50and if we let them be annexed
00:48:52Kavur will send the Piedmontese land forces down here immediately
00:48:57and goodbye to our united Italy
00:49:00father if you're not willing who could make a try
00:49:02I know we must at least try
00:49:06but what you don't consider Minotti is the weight of all this responsibility
00:49:11so what now
00:49:15I think I'll send this reply after all
00:49:18to the king in Kavur
00:49:22Sire
00:49:22your majesty is aware of the affection and respect
00:49:25that I have always felt for your person
00:49:28and that I wish to obey you
00:49:29but then your majesty will also understand
00:49:32in what a position of embarrassment
00:49:33in the eyes of the Neapolitan citizens
00:49:35my inactivity is putting us today
00:49:37it is now months that I've been having to restrain them
00:49:40that I've sent them promises of support
00:49:42all Italy will now turn to me to ask why I'm inactive
00:49:45and this question will cause us harm
00:49:47thus when I have kept my sacred promises
00:49:49your majesty will receive from my hands
00:49:52the powers that circumstances have laid there
00:49:54and I shall obey my king willingly
00:49:56for all the rest of my life
00:50:00I'll have a copy made of this letter
00:50:03and send to the man who's just been here
00:50:09father
00:50:19you say your father is certain that our friends over there on the mainland will open the fortress to us
00:50:24yes sir
00:50:25and suppose we would have failed
00:50:27we'd have been able to attract a lot of urban forces in the direction of the fort
00:50:31or further on up north where we could wait
00:50:34in the meanwhile you to the south
00:50:36you're willing to take the risk

00:50:51in order not to be driven off his course
00:50:53and was washed ashore in Calabria

00:50:58who was destined to become
00:51:00an unsung heroine

00:58:51A mere girl, not quite a woman, assured the success of Garibaldi's landing on the continent of Italy.
00:58:57Further to the south, he and the rest of his men crossed the strait on two steamships, attacked the Bourbon
00:59:04troops unaware, and made them prisoners.

01:00:44Oh
01:01:08They stole everything we got. They stole our cows from us. They treated us like dogs. Be quiet and listen
01:01:13to me.
01:01:14You soldiers, Italy is ashamed of you. Give back those things you've stolen from these men.
01:01:19We don't want to think of you as conquered enemies.
01:01:22We want to welcome you in our ranks and call you brothers and have you as comrades in still greater
01:01:28and more glorious campaigns.
01:01:30Caraballi, we want to go back to our houses. We don't want to fight any more battles for anyone.
01:01:33I don't want to fight any more. I want to go back to being a farmer.
01:01:37Quiet! Quiet!
01:01:39Shame to you men of so little faith. Much better if you were enemies instead of cowards.
01:01:44We would treat you as brothers, whereas now we must treat you as losers.
01:01:48Bandi, Sertori, Guzmarori, Minotti, take care of these men.
01:01:52Don't escape whatever they have. Arms, ammunition, horses and mule.
01:01:57Everything they have stolen must be returned to the rightful owners.
01:02:00If any of these bourbon soldiers want to fight for Italy undivided and free, welcome them like brothers.
01:02:06We could keep the rest of them prisoners, but instead they can go home.
01:02:10We will not have with us men of little faith who are ungrateful cowards.
01:02:15They can go back to their houses and tell what lenient Philip had promised you.
01:02:49So Garibaldi made his way toward Naples where people at the news of his approach either took panic and fled
01:02:55or waited for him anxiously.
01:02:56The young king of Naples bowing to circumstances made a sacrifice in the name of humanity.
01:03:04Your Majesty.
01:03:08You see, my friends, I'm leaving Naples so as to save her from the horrors of war.
01:03:14I've news that Garibaldi is not far away.
01:03:16The faith you've showed to me will never be far from my mind.
01:03:20And so that you will always remember it too, I've named you Knights of Saint Gennaro.
01:03:30Don Libo, watch out, you don't lose the collar.
01:03:33Sire, I'll do everything to wear it on my breast as long as I can.
01:03:36Don Mickey, my congratulations to you.
01:03:39You served the country very, very well.
01:03:41And I know that I've been of equal service to your Majesty.
01:03:44And if your Majesty could have listened to my humble counsels, you might not find yourself in this position now.
01:03:49Your ideal is Italian Victor Emmanuel, but he won't bring you what you're looking for.
01:03:53We mortals have the short view of a lifetime.
01:03:56What the future holds only God knows.
01:03:58Your Majesty may leave in peace, certain that our fellow citizens will be mindful always that your Majesty,
01:04:04in leaving the city voluntarily, has spared us all the horrors of civil conflict.
01:04:08I hope so, thank you.
01:04:09Her Majesty the Queen.
01:04:10What the future holds for you today?
01:04:50Gentlemen, we'll see each other at the front, on the Volturno.
01:05:10We're coming back soon.
01:05:30We're coming back soon.
01:05:46It's so sad to go away.
01:05:48Don't let them see you crying.
01:05:52The very next day, Garibaldi entered Naples without a shock being fired.
01:05:56He was greeted as a liberator, and he assumed leadership of the government just as he had done in Sicily.
01:06:06In the name of all Italians, and of all human beings, I give you citizens of Naples my heartfelt thanks.
01:06:15You well have a right to exult and cheer on a day when the tyranny of centuries has come to
01:06:21an end,
01:06:22and liberty has at long last been established.
01:06:24I thank you for this welcome not for myself, but in the name of United Italy,
01:06:31which each of you has helped to create with the labor of your hearts and your hands,
01:06:36so that it is not only Italy but the whole of Europe which thanks you.
01:06:57Have you heard the news?
01:06:58What?
01:06:59Troops sent by Victor Emmanuel, which means Cavour, have crossed the frontiers of the Roman states.
01:07:04That's what we were just talking about.
01:07:06It's clear they want to drive down towards Neapolitan territory.
01:07:08Clear as day.
01:07:09Do you think that means that Cavour intends to put us in our place?
01:07:12He wants to stop us from eventually marching on Rome and Venice.
01:07:16And then what?
01:07:17Do you think he's trying to push us into civil war?
01:07:19Oh, Cavour hates us all right. He wants what he wants.
01:07:21And he's willing to beat down any obstacle that gets in his way.
01:07:24He doesn't want to play second to anyone.
01:07:26I can tell you that Garibaldi would die a hundred deaths to avoid a civil war.
01:07:30Cavour will answer for it if one breaks out.
01:07:32When I think that France is the second is pressing harder and harder on the Volturno every day.
01:07:37And now you'll see it'll be worse.
01:07:39The line of the Bourbon troops is solid from the coast all the way up to Capua.
01:07:42Their forward lines are only three miles north of Caserta,
01:07:45and patrols of cavalry have been raiding even nearer.
01:07:47The Bourbons will try any sort of offensive to retake Naples and not be caught outside their capital,
01:07:51by Victor Emmanuel.
01:07:53It's obvious that the men faithful to Cavour want to have Sicily and Naples vote themselves in with United Italy.
01:07:58So the two can be part of the kingdom of Victor Emmanuel well before Garibaldi can make Rome into his
01:08:04capital.
01:08:19We can expect anything to happen.
01:08:21I'll tell you frankly, I'm even afraid for Garibaldi's life.
01:08:25Anything's possible. Anything's possible.
01:08:28Getting him out of the way would be convenient to the Bourbons, to Cavour, to Austria, to Napoleon III, to
01:08:34everyone.
01:08:34We can't close our eyes a minute.
01:08:39Garibaldi himself was not troubled by these doubts and fears.
01:08:42Summoned by Bourbon attacks to the banks of the river Volturno,
01:08:45he went into battle with the same spirit of humanity and good faith as always.
01:08:52There you are, General.
01:08:53A lot of Bourbon troops are in Capua.
01:08:55We ought to direct our fire that way.
01:08:57Onboard a city full of defenceless civilians?
01:09:00Better to lose the battle.
01:09:04Don't answer that fire!
01:09:13They're firing from there!
01:09:35Hurray!
01:09:49Oh70声!
01:09:50Oh gut!
01:09:54God!
01:09:56Game 29 h & scherz!

01:10:02Let's go!
01:10:02Let's go!
01:10:32Let's go!
01:10:55Lieutenant!
01:10:56Lieutenant!
01:10:58Get your men up after him!
01:11:00Push him up that hill!
01:11:20Bixio! Where's Bixio?
01:11:22Under that wall, General!
01:11:24That's wall!
01:11:25Down there!
01:11:30What happened to you?
01:11:31Nothing, General!
01:11:32They shot my horse from under me!
01:11:34It's nothing!
01:11:35Take care of yourself!
01:11:36Bring me my horse!
01:11:37My horse!
01:11:41Time and movie hose!
01:11:56Time and get it easy from the dangerous cop!
01:11:59You browsers are looking at me!
01:12:00This is a While-Eacher, againstΥ?
01:12:01I'll turn you over to a kore rector!
01:12:08Down to the river, men! Down to the river!
01:12:32We'll cover the boat with cannons!
01:12:41Fire!
01:12:56Fire!
01:13:10Load those guns!
01:13:18Shoot, you fools!
01:13:32In the mist and smoke of the battlefield, with his kingdom in ruins, Francis II stood among his dead and
01:13:39defeated troops, while Victor Emmanuel, whose purposes were still unclear, rode on toward Naples.
01:13:50Cavour has pushed the king toward Naples to control Garibaldi. He's convinced we want to make a republic in Italy,
01:13:55not a monarchy. He's using our victories and discarding us.
01:13:58The truth is that Cavour thinks of Cavour, and is willing to be second only to Victor Emmanuel.
01:14:02Cavour has always urged Victor Emmanuel to get rid of Giuseppe Garibaldi. That's why the king is coming to Naples.
01:14:08They want to take over the kingdom of Naples and Sicily, which we have conquered, thanks to our leader. But
01:14:14we shall march on to Rome, the capital of Italy!
01:14:18Ladies and gentlemen!
01:14:19Please!
01:14:20Menotti!
01:14:22Hate and envy and jealousy don't count.
01:14:27What does is for our eyes to be always turned toward the unification of Italy.
01:14:34The battle of the Volturno was a defensive battle, not an offensive one.
01:14:40It saved Naples from a return of the Bourbons, but did not destroy their army, which has a force of
01:14:4740,000 men north of the Volturno.
01:14:51I know that men who want to make Italy a republic are urging me to attack Rome, which was my
01:14:59intention when I first entered Naples.
01:15:02But can we leave the Bourbons to the rear and go safely forward?
01:15:07My friends, we will go to Rome. There'll be a day for that. It's impossible now.
01:15:19Now is for Italy.
01:15:24I've just written the following decree.
01:15:29Italy and Victor Emmanuel.
01:15:32To fulfill a wish dear to the entire nation, I hereby decree, Sicily and Naples, that owe their liberation to
01:15:40Italian courage, are now part of Italy indivisible and one, under its king, Victor Emmanuel, and his descendants.
01:15:49I shall immediately place in the keeping of the king the leadership conferred on me by the nation.
01:15:55My lieutenants are charged with the carrying out. This is my decree.
01:16:02Giuseppe Garibaldi.
01:16:15Let's see what time it is. One of you young men go ahead and see what's happening down the road.
01:16:23After so long a time, I'm looking forward to seeing Victor Emmanuel again.
01:16:26Strange. He shouldn't be far off. Since he's coming from Penafaro, he must have spent the night at Trezzanzano.
01:16:34Morning air is damp.
01:16:38Me with his rheumatism.
01:16:42Look. Look how damp it is.
01:16:45General. Yes. Listen.
01:16:50General, he's coming back.
01:16:54Don't you hear the sound of bugles in the distance?
01:16:57General, the king is coming.
01:17:01I heard bugles, then I saw a troop of Piedmontese cavalry.
01:17:03My horse, quick!
01:17:21My horse.
01:17:23My horse.
01:17:27My horse.
01:17:48I came to Jamaica.
01:17:51I saw a troop of Piedmontese cavalry in the same way.
01:18:10I salute the first king of Italy.
01:18:14How are you, Garibaldi?
01:18:16Well, your majesty.
01:18:17And you?
01:18:19Fine.
01:18:20Fine.
01:18:21Sire, when I landed on Sicilian soil, I assumed the military leadership and did it in your name.
01:18:28This morning, I'm fulfilling a dream, dear, in my heart.
01:18:31I'm placing in your hands the leadership of millions of Italians,
01:18:34who until a few months ago were subject to a stupid despotism.
01:18:40Long live the king.
01:18:42Long live the king of Italy.
01:18:45This is Victor Emmanuel, our king, the king of Italy.
01:18:51Long live the king.
01:18:53This is Victor Emmanuel, our king.
01:19:03Francis II, and the soldiers who have remained faithful to him,
01:19:06are getting ready to give battle once more near Gaeta.
01:19:09I ask your majesty to grant the honor of the first attack to my men and to myself.
01:19:15You've been at it a long time, Garibaldi.
01:19:17Now it's my turn to attack.
01:19:19Your army is tired and mine is fresh.
01:19:22We're going to put you into the reserves.
01:19:23Let's go.
01:19:59Let's go.
01:20:25Let's go.
01:20:27Would you give me some water, please?
01:20:29Sure, Garibaldi.
01:20:31It's an honor.
01:20:32If you'll let me, I'll give you something to eat, too.
01:20:34Have a chair.
01:20:43Here you are.
01:20:44Fresh cheese just made yesterday.
01:20:46Got some for you gentlemen, too.
01:20:48Put it on this stool, Jess.
01:21:06He really said it.
01:21:09Really?
01:21:11And now we're going to put you in the reserves.
01:21:24There was now nothing left for Giuseppe Garibaldi but to return to his house on the island of Caprera.
01:21:31He could have taken Rome easily and made it the capital of United Italy.
01:21:36But political power stronger than he had willed that the time for that had not yet come.
01:21:43But people would never forget him.
01:21:46They would remember the exile of Caprera in their hearts.
01:21:51And he, the glorious old man, what would he be thinking of in his solitude?
01:22:16Four months ago and at the end of the island of Caprera is too late.
01:22:55We'll meet again.
01:22:57In Rome.
01:23:29In Rome.
01:23:33In Rome.
01:23:34In Rome.
01:23:39In Rome.
01:23:41In Rome.
01:23:53In Rome.
01:23:55In Rome.
01:23:56In Rome.
01:24:01In Rome.
01:24:01I'll see you next time.
