00:00:00The End
00:00:33The End
00:01:05The End
00:01:33Lee has surrendered to Grant
00:01:36And even now, as I write an eyewitness story for Leslie's Weekly
00:01:40This Virginia countryside no longer trembles to the sound of guns
00:01:48I have followed the war for five years
00:01:51And the silence, the silence of peace is too much for my nerves
00:01:59I am overcome with emotion
00:02:01You better take a drink, Jim
00:02:03You don't want to be overcome with emotion
00:02:05You want your reading public to do the emoting
00:02:08You're right, I got the shakes
00:02:11Of course, it don't seem natural for a fact
00:02:16No guns booming, no ambulances staggering down the road
00:02:23Turn on the old hot tonic that made you famous, Jim
00:02:26Today, the ambulances lie idle
00:02:29Says Jim Steve, the celebrated war correspondent
00:02:31No longer is there precious cargo of shattered humanity
00:02:35That's enough
00:02:49Children, Jehoshaphat
00:02:52What's the matter?
00:02:53It's Lee
00:02:54Lee riding home from the wars
00:03:15You haven't surrendered to them, have you, General?
00:03:17You haven't quit fighting them, have you, sir?
00:03:19No, no, we're just going home to plant a crop
00:03:21And come back and fight them some more, ain't we, General?
00:03:23Oh, we ain't a-going home
00:03:25We ain't a-just playing a trick on them bluecoats, ain't we, General?
00:03:31What's your name, Lieutenant?
00:03:33Cleve Blunt, sir
00:03:34Where is your home?
00:03:35Hopewell, sir
00:03:36In the Bull Run Mountain country
00:03:39Then you must be Miss Patty Blunt's boy
00:03:41Oh, yes, sir
00:03:43Well, you go home, Lieutenant
00:03:46And tell your mother you must lay down your arms now
00:03:49And return to your books
00:03:51But I want to go on fighting, General
00:03:52Until we beat them
00:03:54Peace hath her victories no less than war
00:03:58There's an old hymn which says
00:04:01Chance and change are busy ever
00:04:04Man decays, but ages move
00:04:08We must move with the ages, Cleve
00:04:13There can be no standing still
00:04:15God is mercy, reign and death
00:04:19God is mercy, reign and death
00:04:25God is wisdom, God is love
00:04:29God is wisdom, God is love
00:04:31Chance and shame, God is the ever
00:04:35Man decays and ages move
00:04:50I'm from Leslie's weekly.
00:04:52I heard the general tell you to go to college.
00:04:54Aren't you going to take his advice?
00:04:55I've never done anything but fight since I was 16.
00:04:58I couldn't stop it now if I tried.
00:05:05Who is in charge here?
00:05:07You must place yourself at my disposal for a few minutes.
00:05:09It is most urgent.
00:05:11I am an accredited military observer,
00:05:13and I wish to send my dispatch through our embassy in Washington
00:05:16to the Count von Bismarck in Berlin.
00:05:18You ain't accredited to Frank Leslie, are you?
00:05:20Leslie, bah.
00:05:21I wish to send my dispatch to the Count von Bismarck, do you understand?
00:05:24The Count von Bismarck...
00:05:25It's just a herring to me.
00:05:29Hello, Count.
00:05:30Ah, Herr Steele, you must help me.
00:05:32The Count von Bismarck is waiting for my report.
00:05:34I wish to point out the mistakes your General Lee has made.
00:05:38Sure, you can point out Lee's mistakes.
00:05:40But only a great man, like Lee yonder,
00:05:43can point out the mistakes that'll be made after the guns are silent.
00:05:47Guns are never silent, Herr Steele.
00:05:50Guns are wisdom.
00:05:51Guns are love to you Prussians.
00:05:53Go ahead and send it.
00:05:57Guns are love to you inART.
00:06:15She's really charming.
00:06:16Yes, I saw her in Vienna.
00:06:18I will see you, Colonel.
00:06:19It was a pleasure, Your Excellency, sir.
00:06:20Goodbye.
00:06:21Goodbye.
00:06:21Goodbye.
00:06:22Goodbye.
00:06:22Goodbye.
00:06:25There's old Steed.
00:06:28A war horse and a white tie and tails.
00:06:32Steed, old boy.
00:06:33Hello, Colonel.
00:06:34Hello.
00:06:35Lydas, this is Mr. Steed, with whom I had the pleasure of reporting the war between the
00:06:38states.
00:06:39My fiancΓ©, Miss Thorndike.
00:06:41How do you do?
00:06:42An American war correspondent in Berlin.
00:06:44Well, we're like vultures, lady.
00:06:45We gather around and wait for the lions to die.
00:06:47You don't think the Prussian lion's going to die?
00:06:49No, but I think the Austrian lion's going to be pretty badly mauled.
00:06:53Shh, Jim, we're in Berlin.
00:06:55I'm sure Mr. Steed isn't here to report a war.
00:06:58Like everybody else, he's here to throw himself at the feet of the Viennese ballerina.
00:07:02Now, what chance would I have against an Austrian archduke?
00:07:04Jim, I'm his majesty's military attache.
00:07:06We don't talk about such things.
00:07:10Pardon me.
00:07:11Yeah.
00:07:11Jim, I have waited a whole hour for you.
00:07:14I had a cable from New York, a very important assignment.
00:07:20My German teacher.
00:07:22Yes.
00:07:23Is it true that that dancer hopes to marry the Austrian prince?
00:07:26Uh, every woman hopes to become a princess.
00:07:29Shh.
00:07:29Pardon me.
00:07:31Yes.
00:07:32Jim.
00:07:33No scenes, please.
00:07:34I promise you.
00:07:35You promise?
00:07:36Yes, I'll be there.
00:07:37I'll beat it.
00:07:38Please.
00:07:42Another German teacher?
00:07:43No.
00:07:44She gives me lessons, uh, piano.
00:07:46Piano.
00:07:47Oh.
00:07:48About the ballerina.
00:07:49Wasn't she asked by the Prussian government to dance tonight?
00:07:51You know, a sort of compliment to the Royal House of Vienna?
00:07:54No bones broken.
00:07:55I read a perfectly horrid article about her in one of those awful, mudslinging American
00:08:00weekly.
00:08:01Lies.
00:08:01Well, I did read it.
00:08:03I'm flattered.
00:08:04I wrote it.
00:08:05Oh.
00:08:08Well, she was probably thrown out of Vienna.
00:08:11Well, they didn't throw her far enough.
00:08:12I wish she'd landed in New York.
00:08:14Oh-oh.
00:08:15That's the bell for the overture.
00:08:17May I have some champagne, please?
00:08:18I'd like a word with the American bluebeard.
00:08:20I'll join you.
00:08:21Very well, dear.
00:08:22I'll see you later.
00:08:23Yes.
00:08:24Now, look here.
00:08:24Don't you stick your inquisitive American nose into high politics.
00:08:29Well, I may get a punch in the nose before the night's over, but I think I'll
00:08:33be able to hit back sooner or later.
00:08:34When you're thrown in jail, give me a signal.
00:08:36I have connections.
00:08:37Send me a file and a loaf of bread, old boy.
00:08:57She's beautiful.
00:08:59She's worth her by campaign.
00:09:23I'm having a nice sportsman.
00:09:23You can't feed me now.
00:09:24I'm having a nice job and I'm happy for a dance party.
00:09:24I haven't used to be a pod for your friends.
00:09:24I've been having trouble seeing.
00:09:24I've been going into my favorite menu.
00:09:24I've been doing.
00:09:24I've been doing that.
00:09:32I've been doing this for the first time to meet you.
00:11:54That's just what I thought, sir.
00:11:57Hope you've excused the interruption.
00:11:58I have not.
00:11:59He's irritable tonight.
00:12:01It is always so when one is assigned to a delicate test.
00:12:06Good luck to you, gentlemen.
00:12:11Now you see how simple and honest our great Iron Chancellor is.
00:12:14Imagine breaking in on your General Grant that way.
00:12:16What would he have done to you?
00:12:18He always gave me a cigar and then told me the truth.
00:12:41The ladies were admiring your flowers here, Garth.
00:12:56You are?
00:12:57Huh?
00:12:59Oh, from His Excellency, the Count von Bismarck.
00:13:01Ah, you are going to be here.
00:13:12Prussian beast?
00:13:14Yes.
00:13:15Every man disrobes me.
00:13:17I'd say, ma'am, there isn't much to disrobe.
00:13:20Sophie?
00:13:21This gentleman?
00:13:22He is from His Excellency, the Count von Bismarck.
00:13:25Oh!
00:13:26From that vulture?
00:13:28In the box.
00:13:28He's got me wrong, ma'am.
00:13:30I'm from Frank Leslie's Weekly.
00:13:32From what?
00:13:33Frank Leslie's Weekly.
00:13:37It is a very bad likeness of me.
00:13:40Look, are my shoulders made of iron?
00:13:42No, ma'am.
00:13:43I'd say they were made of butter and sugar.
00:13:45Which will never be at Count Bismarck's feast.
00:13:48I'm sure of that, ma'am.
00:13:50But the other one in the box...
00:13:53Now, I'd like to interest you in a little business proposition.
00:13:57I came back here because I happened to overhear a conversation about you
00:14:01between Count von Bismarck and Count von Boland.
00:14:04I happen to overhear it because I make it my business to eavesdrop.
00:14:08I am uninterested in their opinion of me.
00:14:10I'll play a little game with you.
00:14:12If you can find out from von Boland just when Prussia expects to make war against Austria,
00:14:17I will undertake to forward your messages back to Vienna.
00:14:20You'll undertake it?
00:14:22Can I not write to my prints?
00:14:24Not if you're as shrewd as you look.
00:14:26The day that you begin to receive von Boland's attentions,
00:14:30that day you will be under surveillance.
00:14:31But I am not going to receive his attentions.
00:14:35But that's what I want to urge you to do.
00:14:37To have supper in his rooms.
00:14:39To have possibly a great amount of curiosity
00:14:41as to the contents of his bureau or his desk or his letter file.
00:14:51You could get more places that way in a war than General Grant could in a full-dress uniform.
00:14:56In whose pay are you?
00:14:59Has it ever occurred to you, Salome, that we're all instruments of divine providence?
00:15:04I'm a member of a despised tribe, a newspaper man.
00:15:08And you're eating your heart out because you can never be a Habsburg princess.
00:15:13Now, suppose we could unmask that tiger Bismarck when he attempts to strike in the spring.
00:15:17Show that it is cool, deliberate murder.
00:15:21To my mind, that's a finer thing to do for your prince and your country
00:15:24than any mere queen would do.
00:15:27It is a queenly thing, oh, Salome, to do good and be evil spoken of.
00:15:33So we see who knocks.
00:15:35It is fate knocking, Salome.
00:15:43Anna Maria, it gives to me great pleasure to present His Excellency Count von Bohlen
00:15:48of the Prussian General Stafford.
00:15:52Mars, making a customary homage to Venus.
00:15:55It would do me great honor, GnΓ€dichus FrΓ€ulein,
00:15:58to order supper for us at the Bristol.
00:15:59Of course, in the great dining room.
00:16:02Oh, it is such a large room.
00:16:05I am frightened by such great beauty,
00:16:07or I would ask to order supper in your room.
00:16:12My rooms are stuffy.
00:16:14I would hardly say in my room.
00:16:18An actress in your rooms?
00:16:21Yes, that would be frowned upon by the chief of the Prussian General Staff.
00:16:26I thank you for the lovely flowers.
00:16:29They are exquisite.
00:16:33Sophie, take care of these.
00:16:36What wine will you choose?
00:16:39I love the wine of Hungary, the Tokai.
00:16:43And the temperature?
00:16:44The temperature of your rooms.
00:17:01Who, uh...
00:17:02Who tells you, Americans, all the secrets of our European wars?
00:17:05A little bird?
00:17:06You military attachΓ©s never see the woods for the trees.
00:17:13Speaking of trees, a lovely saffling there, what?
00:17:25Beside a sturdy Prussian oak.
00:17:39I say, Steve, you're quite a gay young dog beneath your rugged exterior, aren't you?
00:17:44Do you mind?
00:17:45Not at all, old boy.
00:17:47If you dropped a billet deau for me, I'd have read it first and asked your pardon later.
00:17:55Now, on the matter of that small wager on Bismarck's intentions towards Austria...
00:17:59I'd never bet on a sure thing, Colonel.
00:18:02You know, Colonel, with your rank and my brains, we could run this war.
00:18:07My dear fellow, what war?
00:18:09One that starts tomorrow.
00:18:14Steve, I give you top marks.
00:18:17Time's a-wasting, Colonel.
00:18:18I must send my dispatch to Leslie's Weekly.
00:18:21And I request the pleasure of your company, my dear Henderson,
00:18:24for the opening of the war between Prussia and Austria,
00:18:27tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock.
00:18:48Now, Colonel, if the Austrians tried that outflanking maneuver on old Stonewall Jackson,
00:18:53they'd lose their pants before nightfall.
00:18:55Then I can assure you they're going to lose them.
00:18:57These Prussians have learned more from Stonewall Jackson than Frederick the Great ever taught them.
00:19:02We'd better get out of here.
00:19:04What?
00:19:21Oh, darn it, you can tell a livery-stable horse in any country.
00:20:12Napoleon, Brandy!
00:20:14Great G. Hossaphat, brother.
00:20:16One of the deluxe war you Austrians fighting.
00:20:21Well, I guess the least I can do is take your name and let your folks know you didn't suffer.
00:20:55I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness.
00:20:57But a lady's life can hang in the balance on this little perfume scale.
00:21:23You are wounded, Herr Steeve.
00:21:26Only a bad fall from the horse.
00:21:28Which conveniently places you in a position to loot the dead.
00:21:34You are wounded, Herr Steeve.
00:21:44You are wounded, Herr Steeve.
00:21:55I'm sorry.
00:21:56I'm sorry.
00:21:57I'm sorry.
00:21:58them. Yes. And you were about to steal the locket. I was about to return it to someone.
00:22:04You must permit me to do that for you.
00:22:09You see, I'm going to have you shot as a battlefield ghoul. Perhaps we should let the
00:22:14Feldwebel return them. You see, when you turn those letters over to your chief of staff
00:22:18up there, he'll have you shot for revealing military secrets to a lady who's made a fool
00:22:22of you. A life for a life. Two lives for your one.
00:22:30Naturally, I would not hurt her. I am unfortunate enough to love her.
00:22:37Feldwebel, nehmen Sie den her steed, wo er hingehen will.
00:22:41I am giving you safe conduct and escort. Be good enough to tell him where you wish to go.
00:22:51Oh, Count.
00:22:55Haven't you forgotten something, Count?
00:22:57What? The lady's letters. Or shall I call them the attention of your chief of staff?
00:23:01Yes.
00:24:04He'd lost a war, lost his life, rather than let anyone know that the girl he loved had placed herself
00:24:09in a position to loot the rooms of a Prussian officer.
00:24:13Yes, a man could love you that much.
00:24:26Yes, a man could love you.
00:24:45Don't you see? San Francisco was made for you.
00:24:47You think Paris or Vienna is profligate? You should see those nabobs on the Gold Coast.
00:24:53But it would all be too new.
00:24:56New? San Francisco? Why, it's a chapter out of the Arabian Nights. We'll descend on the Golden Gate like a
00:25:02pack of wolves on a sheepfold.
00:25:03This is one time a reporter would rather create a great story than write one.
00:25:07Look, I got you into this and I'll get you out of it.
00:25:09Now, you're going to stand here a portrait of a faithless lady waiting for the big reconciliation.
00:25:13In the meantime, Uncle Jim, good old Uncle Jim, will take up his position back in the door.
00:25:20He'll come in, strike an attitude, shout that he's been horn-swoggled, and that's when you blow out the lamp.
00:25:24Music, Professor.
00:25:28Yes?
00:25:33All along you are acting, giving another of your great performances.
00:25:36You tricked me into loving you, and that I cannot forget.
00:25:38Never forget.
00:26:09You can take it easy now and relax.
00:26:13What did you say?
00:26:15I said you can relax.
00:26:18Ain't no danger of a hold-up now.
00:26:21That's Drinkman Wells right over there.
00:26:26Dancing our way to San Francisco.
00:26:29Oh, don't blame Jim.
00:26:31He forgot what a big country he lives in.
00:26:34How wide it is.
00:26:35And how much it costs to go from nowhere to nowhere.
00:26:3928 days already and not the grown and left between us.
00:26:43Don't worry, Vax.
00:26:44Before us lies the small but thriving community of Drinkman Wells,
00:26:48where our Viennese lily will bloom in the desert or we'll all die of thirst.
00:27:16Well, folks, here we are.
00:27:18Drinkman Wells.
00:27:22Oh, look, Max.
00:27:25Madame Europe's.
00:27:26That is what Jim would call a hunch, yeah?
00:27:29That's right.
00:27:30Well, she might welcome show folks.
00:27:32She used to be on the stage herself until her arches fell.
00:27:35Place is right across the street.
00:27:37Thanks.
00:27:55What do you want?
00:27:58We want the best that Madame Europe can afford, and a lot of it.
00:28:02European cuisine, Spanish wines, French beds,
00:28:05Bextein Grand for our professor here to play,
00:28:07and a stage for a glorina.
00:28:10Hmm.
00:28:12Show folks, huh?
00:28:13Step right in.
00:28:21Well, you've got to excuse this reception.
00:28:24We've been having a little trouble down here in Rickman Wells.
00:28:27What kind of trouble?
00:28:28Bandit trouble.
00:28:30Stagecoach Cleave, he calls himself.
00:28:31He blows up strongboxes with a newfangled explosion called nitrokerosine.
00:28:36Nobody cares about a little regular banditry,
00:28:38but when it comes right down to using these unorthodox methods,
00:28:42it makes the boys around town mighty sore.
00:28:44Well, maybe we have just what this town needs,
00:28:46a good rousing show.
00:28:48And when it comes to explosion liquor,
00:28:50this little lady is dynamite.
00:28:53Well, she don't look to me like she could explode
00:28:55no better than a penny firecracker right now.
00:28:58Forgive me if I don't live up to his description,
00:29:01but the trip was very long.
00:29:03It's so hot.
00:29:05Yeah.
00:29:06Well, go on, get your duds.
00:29:10We're right about the hunch.
00:29:11We won't be long.
00:29:13Madame Yorov,
00:29:14you are indeed an oasis.
00:29:17Well, I've been called a lot of things,
00:29:19but that's a new one on me.
00:29:30Those tales of love shall tell.
00:29:37Oh, that takes me back.
00:29:42We came through here about ten years ago,
00:29:45and our manager, oh, he was a wonderful artist.
00:29:50Only he could never resist a card game.
00:29:52One day he thought he saw a sanded ace up a gambler's sleeve,
00:29:55and he started to draw on a two-gun man.
00:29:57We buried him in Boot Hill
00:30:00with a row of crystal clear whiskey bottles marking his grave.
00:30:05You mean to say there's a troop still kicking around this outpost?
00:30:07Hmm, what's left of him.
00:30:10And our heavy.
00:30:11Oh, he was the greatest Simon Legree that ever cracked a whip.
00:30:16He's shaking New Orleans fizzes in the Red Dog Saloon.
00:30:19By the way, what play do you aim to do?
00:30:23Max, that's your department.
00:30:25A pantomime.
00:30:27Why not...
00:30:29Why not the Sleeping Beauty?
00:30:31Uh-uh, not here.
00:30:33They don't like him sleeping.
00:30:34I know something that'll wake him up.
00:30:37Salome.
00:30:38Salome?
00:30:39Does she dance that good?
00:30:41That good?
00:30:43Drinkman Wells will remember it forever.
00:30:48Oh!
00:30:49Oh, my God!
00:31:06The most beautiful girl in the world.
00:31:08Here we go.
00:31:09Have your tickets ready.
00:31:11All right.
00:31:11Here.
00:31:12Yeah, keep my knife.
00:31:14Boy, you figure needing some peas in there, Dobie?
00:31:16Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:31:18Oh, my God!
00:31:20Oh, my God!
00:31:22Oh, my God!
00:31:30May I have your attention, gentlemen?
00:31:32Yes, sir.
00:31:33A little introduction, music professor.
00:31:38Gentlemen, welcome.
00:31:40At vast expense, and across the burning wastes of the great American desert, from across the storm-swept Atlantic, from
00:31:49the gilded capitals of Europe, we have assembled the greatest array of talent, foreign, domestic, and strictly local, ever presented
00:31:57in this outpost of desert culture, Drakeman Wells.
00:32:02Quiet, please.
00:32:04Our orchestra is under the baton of that celebrated Viennese composer, formerly Opera House, Herr Professor, Max Blumenthal.
00:32:15Hey!
00:32:17That crazy girl!
00:32:18Give me that shoot mine!
00:32:19Put your mind on me!
00:32:21Why?
00:32:21For our first number, it gives me great pleasure to present the old favorite from the Bohemian girl, Madame Europe!
00:32:38Hey, look at old Bess.
00:32:40She don't look a day over 40.
00:32:44Hey, what are you doing after shooting like this?
00:33:21Jim, Jim, what's the matter, honey?
00:33:25It isn't going well, is it?
00:33:27It isn't going at all.
00:33:28It's stuck in the mud.
00:33:28A man in Europe is laying an egg the size of a beer barrel.
00:33:36Jim, I'm worried.
00:33:38Oh, don't you worry, honey.
00:33:40You're going to ride to the rescue.
00:33:44This audience, it staggers me.
00:33:47They'll eat right out of your hand the same way I did.
00:33:51How's the cash box?
00:33:53We made enough money to go to San Francisco in style.
00:33:57Where's salome coming on?
00:33:58We want money to go to San Francisco.
00:34:00We want money to go to San Francisco.
00:34:02But these men, they're not like any I've ever met.
00:34:06Look, honey, when you dance, a man's a man in a checkered shirt and chewing tobacco, or a gentleman in
00:34:12white tie and tails.
00:34:13No, Jim, you're just what I mean.
00:34:17When we get in the big money, how about making out a permanent deal?
00:34:21Are you proposing to me?
00:34:23Hmm?
00:34:24This isn't just a case of stage fright.
00:34:26I've been proposing to you since the first time I saw you.
00:34:29I've been proposing to you since I've ever met.
00:34:30Both, get ready for action.
00:34:33We want money!
00:34:35We want money!
00:34:37We want money!
00:34:39We want money!
00:34:49We want money!
00:34:52We want money!
00:34:57He's had a great show.
00:34:59Lots of fire in his papers.
00:35:07All right, all right.
00:35:09By an amnesty, man, salome.
00:35:34All right, all right, all right.
00:35:57All right, all right.
00:36:51All right, all right.
00:36:56Rise and shine.
00:36:59Reach for it and keep reaching.
00:37:05Go ahead, boys.
00:37:09Max.
00:37:12It's Kurt come to life.
00:37:14You're a low-down critter stagecoach.
00:37:16Not only robbing, but busting up the show.
00:37:19Yeah, too bad, Sheriff.
00:37:21Mighty nice of you getting the folks together, though.
00:37:23And throwing the guns in the bed to collect an easier.
00:37:24Thanks.
00:37:41I remember you.
00:37:43You're Cleve Blunt.
00:37:45You spoke to General Lee after Appomattox.
00:37:49It's stagecoach Cleve now.
00:37:51And still fighting.
00:37:53I'll trouble you for that cash box, mister.
00:38:05If you are quite through robbing these poor people, I would like to go on with my dance.
00:38:10That's what they came here for and paid for.
00:38:13Go ahead, lady.
00:38:14Dance.
00:38:15Sit down, boys.
00:38:17Sorry to have interrupted your fun.
00:38:18But keep your hands up.
00:38:20Go ahead and play, Max.
00:38:46Go ahead, Max.
00:39:07Go ahead, Max.

00:49:47good
00:49:47good
00:49:47good
00:49:48good
00:49:56good
00:50:16I understand you're the richest neighbor on the Gold Coast, Colonel.
00:50:20Yes, I'm one malefactor who makes no attempt to conceal as enormous wealth.
00:50:24Then maybe you'd like to buy this secret I caught on the Malay stage.
00:50:30It's a very rare specimen.
00:50:33Yes, I believe it to be Ardea Sumatrana.
00:50:36Well, the diviner Parisian over there is wearing nothing better than Ardea Puperea,
00:50:40the common heron of Europe and to be had for a few pennies in any parish shop.
00:50:45It's yours for $1,500.
00:50:49My good fellow, I consider that a bargain.
00:50:53Here are $2,000.
00:50:55I'm afraid I haven't got...
00:50:56Never mind, you may keep the change.
00:50:58Oh, thank you, sir. Thank you.
00:51:01Sir, will you do me the honor of telling me the name of the lady who has just ended?
00:51:05Which lady, sir?
00:51:07Is there more than one?
00:51:09The lady, sir, is the celebrated Viennese dancer
00:51:11who is said to have provoked the recent war between Prussia and Austria.
00:51:15She has suffered deeply.
00:51:17Her suffering will soon be at an end.
00:51:23Don't. I'm not hurt. We've hooked him.
00:51:31I ask your pardon, but Mademoiselle is far too genuine to be wearing false feathers.
00:51:36The tropics of the Indian seas have labored a million years
00:51:40to find plumage worthy of your grace.
00:51:42I hate gun smoke.
00:51:45Shall we go?
00:52:05Oh, madame, you're up.
00:52:07Well, what now?
00:52:08Could it be real, that Rembrandt?
00:52:11Is it not beautiful?
00:52:12Hmm, he looks like he needs a dose of calomel to me.
00:52:28That's six bits, I ought to plug that, Dmitriyov.
00:52:31Oh, no, Cleve.
00:52:33Russians are a very demonstrative people.
00:52:35And they are also very generous.
00:52:39Now, after it is all over and he has built a theater for me,
00:52:43this Colonel Dmitriyov will laugh at Jim's little trick.
00:52:46That's what I don't like, this trick.
00:52:48You've seen enough trouble.
00:52:49You've probably caused enough trouble.
00:52:51Cleve.
00:52:52Oh, I don't want to hurt you, Salome.
00:52:54I've had trouble too, but the theater's no place to start life again.
00:52:58You don't belong here.
00:52:59Why, this is all very fine.
00:53:01It is like Paris.
00:53:03A little.
00:53:04You were saying you'd do anything if I'd go straight.
00:53:08Yes, anything.
00:53:10Then come home with me, to Virginia.
00:53:13I want to take you out of all this.
00:53:15None of this is any good.
00:53:16None of it.
00:53:17You know it.
00:53:18Oh, Cleve.
00:53:22Yes?
00:53:38What in tarnation?
00:53:41What a city.
00:53:43Russian chasseurs.
00:53:45A Rembrandt.
00:53:46It is just like the Arabian Nights.
00:53:49Max.
00:53:49Max!
00:53:50What is it?
00:53:51What is happening?
00:53:51Max, look, look.
00:53:54Himmel.
00:53:55It's a Rembrandt.
00:53:58Rembrandt himself.
00:53:59And it's authentic.
00:54:01Yes, all of life, all of art, all of sorrow.
00:54:04So he got it.
00:54:05Got it?
00:54:06Sure, the colonel bought the Rembrandt.
00:54:08Little present for you.
00:54:09A dirty old bar fry with a tam-o-shanter?
00:54:11Say, how much is a thing like that worth?
00:54:14Probably $50,000.
00:54:15Uh-oh.
00:54:16See what he's got to say.
00:54:17The old guy in the picture?
00:54:18He says he could sure do with a drink.
00:54:20So could I.
00:54:21The colonel wants us all to do him the honor of coming to dinner.
00:54:24Swell.
00:54:25We'll eat him out of house and home.
00:54:55River of blue
00:54:56Like Viennese wine.
00:55:05And how I'd feel with a thrill when he'd say,
00:55:16My love be mine.
00:55:24How long, how long ago, when we saw the dark new flow?
00:55:37Oh, just a boy, a girl, a moon, sharing dreams that are ended from all too soon.
00:56:01River of blue.
00:56:04River of blue, a world of blue.
00:56:09And new by new, when I think of you, I think of him too.
00:56:27The sound of his voice
00:56:35The touch of his hand
00:56:43The love on his face
00:56:48His embrace just a few gladness
00:57:03Real love
00:57:11Wonderful, wonderful, my dear U.S. of Perl.
00:57:17I'm really proud of you
00:57:19And this is only the beginning
00:57:25So grand and gilded a cage
00:57:28Why, you talk just like my granddaddy
00:57:30And was he from China, Larry?
00:57:32No, sir, he was from Scotland
00:57:34Oh, Scotland
00:57:36Where I took my medical degree
00:57:37And learned
00:57:39And here I am
00:57:40A practicing metaphysician
00:57:42At the court of this fabulous man, Dmitriov
00:57:46I'm so thrilled
00:57:47Surely I must be home in Vienna
00:57:49Colonel Dmitriov, you are a magician
00:57:51Mademoiselle Anna Maria
00:57:53It is a privilege to welcome the great artist
00:57:55My dear, you are enchanting
00:58:02I wish to put you at your ease, mademoiselle
00:58:04By saying that a city
00:58:06Which has thrown itself at the feet of Lola Montez
00:58:09Has capitulated without firing a shot
00:58:11You are very kind
00:58:14In opera, it is a tragedy
00:58:16That the voice grows in proportion to the bust
00:58:19But with this slender creature
00:58:23Multum in parvo
00:58:24Oh, how marvelous is your perspicacity
00:58:28I can readily see that you are a woman of discernment
00:58:31As the Greeks so aptly put it
00:58:33Just a moment, Plato
00:58:44I knew that rapper was genuine Sumatra
00:58:47My dear
00:58:48And so in the restaurant
00:58:49I could not possibly exchange shots
00:58:51With your Captain Blunt
00:58:52Indeed, I am grateful to him
00:58:53Yes, my nephew Captain Blunt's a fine lad
00:58:56And where did the lady meet him?
00:58:59Why, uh...
00:58:59Oh, he was confederate attachΓ©
00:59:01To the Habsburg court in Vienna
00:59:03And, uh, when I was forced to leave my country
00:59:06Captain Blunt was good enough to...
00:59:08You see, she's so charming
00:59:09That when she babbles your press agent's make-believe
00:59:12She almost makes me believe it
00:59:15This ex-bandit will never be prosecuted
00:59:17As long as he has me for a friend
00:59:20Ex-bandit?
00:59:21Why, Colonel, you must be misinformed
00:59:22Now, now, Mr. Steed
00:59:24You see, Dr. Ling keeps me very well informed
00:59:31What do you propose to do?
00:59:32The boy befriended us
00:59:34And the last dollar I have is at his service
00:59:36Exactly, the last dollar
00:59:38I propose to befriend him
00:59:40I've already taken up the matter
00:59:42With the Butterfield stage line
00:59:44You're all right, Colonel
00:59:46I can't tell you how happy this makes me
00:59:48Then come, my dear
00:59:50Let's have champagne and celebrate
00:59:53Champagne, please
00:59:53Yes, sir
00:59:56And now, ladies and gentlemen
00:59:59Let's all drink a toast to beautiful Anna Maria
01:00:02Her star is in ascendance
01:00:04May it ever shine with increasing brilliance
01:00:13Jan Lassie is not for you
01:00:16Dmitriyaf has seen her
01:00:17And he will be bound to have her
01:00:20My Scotch ancestry won't allow me to give up easily
01:00:39Mr. Steed
01:00:40I'm greatly disturbed
01:00:42Look
01:00:44We have a lovely woman
01:00:46Temperamental and willful
01:00:47Who sees in her present cavalier
01:00:49The image of one she once loved
01:00:51Now, until his future is settled
01:00:53How can I plan her life?
01:00:55How can I build a great theater?
01:00:57How can I transplant that genius of the ballet
01:01:00Into the harsh soil of the new world?
01:01:03Well, if you could have Cleve pardoned
01:01:04And given a poster shotgun messenger
01:01:06On the Butterfield line
01:01:07You'd go a long way toward clearing the air
01:01:10Yes, but not have him pardoned
01:01:12And returned to Virginia
01:01:15Because he wouldn't agree to go
01:01:17Look
01:01:29Yes, I can well see why he wants to stay where he is
01:01:31You're growing rather jealous of him, Colonel Dmitriyaf
01:01:37My good friend, we need the wisdom of the East
01:01:40I am aware of the dilemma
01:01:42I was about to suggest that a young man be given a post
01:01:45On the line between Fresno and San Francisco
01:01:48That will still not remove him from the scene
01:01:50To do that would destroy your chances forever, Colonel
01:01:53For one lover to send another to a far country
01:01:57My man
01:01:58He'd commit the sin of King David in the Old Testament
01:02:01But to give the young man a post where he was neither near nor far
01:02:04Would be the end of mystery
01:02:05And romance
01:02:07My dear Dr. Ling, you're wonderful
01:02:09The next item on the agenda of our consular war
01:02:12Is how to get rid of Major Steed
01:02:14Are you any suggestions, Major?
01:02:18Well, Dr. Ling, if your information is correct
01:02:20And von Bolin is on his way here
01:02:23May be that he will perform that duty for you
01:02:25Alas, Major Steed
01:02:26Business before pleasure
01:02:28And I claim the honor of handling that Prussian in my own way
01:02:31It will require the utmost alertness
01:02:34And vigilance on all our parts to protect our Anna Maria
01:02:39And spying on their intrigues
01:02:41She has inferred the highest penalty
01:02:45The revenge of conceit is without mercy
01:02:47And the blood of this girl
01:02:49Is the only thing that will restore the glory of the Count von Bolin
01:02:56I knew Dr. Ling would find a solution
01:02:58I hope it works
01:02:59I'm anxious to get started with the show
01:03:01You must remember, John
01:03:04Well, never have I seen such conspirators
01:03:06You would think they'd been planning a hold-up instead of a ballet
01:03:10I never looked like that when I planned my hold-ups
01:03:12Oh, but that is all over now
01:03:14Yes
01:03:15I've arranged a full pardon for your boyish escapades
01:03:19Well, that's mighty nice of you, Colonel
01:03:21I've also arranged a post for you
01:03:23A shotgun messenger on the very same stagecoach as you used to rob
01:03:26You have, eh?
01:03:27Indeed, I have
01:03:29You think I'll now begin to shoot my old friends?
01:03:32I'm not ready to turn my coat yet
01:03:34I'd rather go back to robbing
01:03:38Well, gentlemen
01:03:40You must think of some other way to take him from me
01:03:46Lassie
01:03:53I trust you believe in me as a friend
01:03:56Oh, dear Dr. Ling
01:03:57I cherish your friendship greatly
01:04:00Your teachings have cleared my mind of many doubts and fears
01:04:04Then I must endeavor to make you see clearly
01:04:07Why it is sometimes better that a wise woman adapt herself to circumstances
01:04:12As water shapes itself to the vessel that contains it
01:04:24Never try to reform the choice of a lady's help, gentlemen
01:04:29Unless you can succeed in making her believe that she has been the instrument of this reformation
01:04:34Well, that reformation shouldn't be difficult
01:04:36That's your wisdom
01:04:38That's Dimitriov's generosity
01:04:40And the lady's talent
01:04:50And the lady's talent
01:05:16Hello, Jeff
01:05:17Hi, boys
01:05:20What's on your mind, fellas?
01:05:22We need you, Cleve
01:05:23It's the biggest thing we've ever come across
01:05:25There's a pile in it for everybody
01:05:26How'd you get word to me?
01:05:28We heard the Butterfield Line was going to grant you a pardon
01:05:30At the request of the Russian government
01:05:32What's the job?
01:05:36Chinese junk has dropped anchor off there
01:05:38She's loaded with soaking jade
01:05:41Met one of her crew last night
01:05:42We had a few drinks together
01:05:44He's coming in on a deal with us
01:05:45We're going to knock it off and sail her to Panama
01:05:48Piracy on the high seas, ain't that something?
01:05:50Yeah, yeah, that's something
01:05:51We want you in on it
01:05:53What's holding it?
01:05:54Nothing
01:05:55We got it all planned
01:05:56Come on, boys
01:06:14Come on, boys
01:06:23I'll go below and bring up the captain
01:06:25You stay here and take care of the crew
01:06:26Remember, no killing
01:06:27Don't worry
01:06:28We'll keep them alive to sail the ship
01:06:40Come on, boys
01:06:41Come on, boys
01:06:59We're gonna show you
01:07:00Put him up, mister.
01:07:03You look too saintly to kill.
01:07:06Come in, laddie.
01:07:09And repent your sinful ways.
01:07:11Dr. Lee!
01:07:21You heard me tell you to get him up?
01:07:24Yes.
01:07:25I'll get him up.
01:07:28I know. Would you rob me, laddie?
01:07:31I hear here a poem written by a man 2,000 years ago
01:07:36in praise of a peach tree which bloomed in his garden.
01:07:39And who would rob the peach tree of his blossoms, laddie?
01:07:43The wind does that every spring.
01:07:46You're gonna lead me to the captain of this ship.
01:07:48He's right behind you.
01:07:52A queer contraption across, poor laddie.
01:07:55But it strikes a blow that kills as dead as a bullet.
01:07:58What's coming off here?
01:07:59Where are Jed and my friends?
01:08:01Look through the porthole, laddie.
01:08:18I saw it was a frame-up.
01:08:19And you're sorry?
01:08:21No, I'm not sorry.
01:08:23Each of your friends has been freed and told to mend his ways.
01:08:27What way are you going, laddie?
01:08:29What way have I ever taken but the wrong way?
01:08:32Whenever I stood before two roads, I took the wrong one.
01:08:35You were offered the right one, laddie.
01:08:37To turn against my old friends?
01:08:39The right road is always the hard one.
01:08:42When a man is redeemed, when he begins again,
01:08:45tis never the length of the road that dismays him.
01:08:48No, tis the thought of leaving the old comrades in arms.
01:08:52The thought of going it alone along the bitter path of peace.
01:08:56For he have been bred for war and taught to fight.
01:09:00And taught nothing else.
01:09:02Yes, that's it.
01:09:03Nothing but fighting since I was 16.
01:09:06But tis a fine thing, laddie, to fight for the right.
01:09:12What is the right?
01:09:13What a true man believes in.
01:09:16I believe in nothing.
01:09:20Not even in Salome?
01:09:30Yes, I'd believe in her.
01:09:44Dr. Ling, I...
01:10:13Mr. Ling, I...
01:10:16Where...
01:10:33I don't know.
01:10:36Not even hunting, I don't know.
01:10:37What a true man thinks.
01:10:39Who sounds hungry!
01:10:41Who are you not?
01:10:43To CGI man I have to cackle.

01:15:17Erich.
01:15:18So, you are surprised?
01:15:20Pleasantly, I hope.
01:15:22Evidently, your clever friends did not expect me so soon.
01:15:25You have no hold on me here.
01:15:27I have come from Washington.
01:15:29Through our influence, the diplomatic difficulties have been cleared.
01:15:32You are returning with me to Berlin.
01:15:34She is not a subject of the Prussian king.
01:15:37Washington does not send back political refugees.
01:15:40Yes.
01:15:41That is what America is made of.
01:15:44The homeless ones, with talent and courage.
01:15:47This is not a political matter.
01:15:49It is a more serious offense.
01:15:51I have powerful friends who can have you thrown out of this city.
01:15:55If your Russian attempts to interfere, the Tsar will recall him to St. Petersburg.
01:15:59Dr. Schulz, our counsel, has already offered Colonel Dimitrov the alternative of a recall.
01:16:05Kleines Liebschen, how could you have betrayed me after we have been so close?
01:16:10You gave me every reason to believe I did not displease you.
01:16:13And even now, you need not return to Berlin if you will come away with me.
01:16:19I will give you everything that you have here, with your Russian or this Herr Steed.
01:16:28Well, you have my proposal.
01:16:30You must make the decision.
01:16:32The decision is that you leave here.
01:16:35And go back where you came from, alone.
01:16:38Cleve, he was trying...
01:16:39Never mind, I've heard enough.
01:16:40When you're ready, I'll see you safely home.
01:16:43Come, Le Pien.
01:16:49I will be in the audience tonight, leading your clack.
01:16:55Get out.
01:16:57Another member of the club.
01:16:59Well, I don't blame you.
01:17:01Many men love her.
01:17:02Where I come from, we defend a lady's name.
01:17:04Oh, please, please, darling.
01:17:05Go in there.
01:17:06Come, Liebchen, it's best.
01:17:09I'll get rid of your heart.
01:17:22Only a coward would take advantage of an unarmed opponent.
01:17:27You are right.
01:17:29She is worth fighting for.
01:17:31But I cannot cross swords with a mere boy.
01:17:35Don't worry.
01:17:36We had a French fencing master in our regiment.
01:17:40Right?
01:17:42We will see how much you remember.
01:17:52That was quick.
01:17:53You would make a good student of the sword.
01:17:55Now let us see if you remember the second repost from a high thrust.
01:18:06Max, Max, we must stop them.
01:18:08What can we do?
01:18:16So, you've got that fun in your lessons.
01:18:17That is good.
01:18:18If you are as accomplished in your lovemaking, you are indeed a rival.
01:18:23Where you're going, you won't have a rival.
01:18:42Where you're going, you won't have a rival.
01:18:55Oh, my God.
01:19:24Oh, my God.
01:20:04Cleve, Cleve, Cleve, Cleve, Cleve, Cleve, Cleve, you mustn't run away.
01:20:15Cleve, you must stay here.
01:20:17Oh, you're hurt, and it's my fault.
01:20:21I swear that I killed him, and we'll face it together.
01:20:27Cleve, Cleve, when I walk out of here and rid myself of you, I'm going back where I belong.
01:20:33No, no, Cleve.
01:20:34I'm going back to Virginia with you.
01:20:36No, not Virginia.
01:20:38I'm going back to the road.
01:21:05Hello, Jett.
01:21:06Hello, Cleve.
01:21:08Is this the Don Quixote you were telling me about?
01:21:10Yeah.
01:21:11Looks like he's just been thrown out of his castle.
01:21:14Maybe he needs a drink, huh?
01:21:16Get out.
01:21:25What's wrong, Cleve?
01:21:28I had to kill him here.
01:21:30Are there any witnesses?
01:21:33Yeah, a girl.
01:21:35Can you trust her?
01:21:38I don't want to.
01:21:40Now, you're coming to your senses.
01:21:43Looks like it's a case of my head ain't hurt, but my heart's plumb broke, huh?
01:21:48Yeah, that's where it amounts to.
01:21:51How soon will the news get out?
01:21:53She'll be out right now.
01:21:54I've got to get away.
01:21:57The Butterfield coach will be standing in the stables right now,
01:21:59waiting for the driver to take her out on the morning run to Fresno.
01:22:01You want to hold her up?
01:22:02No, steal her out.

01:26:07HUTCHO!
01:26:08911
01:26:21WELL UP WHEN WE GET TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BRIDGE
01:26:23EGLE
01:26:29Hey, we're going to need that explosion. We're going to blow up the Fresno safe.
01:26:32Right now, we've got more important use for it. I'll stop that, Russian.
01:26:39Arnold, it looks like they've got us stopped.
01:26:41Sheriff, you give up too easily. Move over.
01:26:52Just ahead is the horseshoe turn. The road doubles back. Runs parallel with this ridge.
01:26:58That gives me an idea.
01:26:59Come here.
01:27:12Now, get your gun ready.
01:27:17Stop! You're under arrest!
01:27:31Come here.
01:27:56Well, I can't say I blame you, Colonel.
01:28:00You killed that person just to gain favor with a woman I love.
01:28:03You're gonna have her. Let's go, Sheriff.
01:28:05Just a minute, Sheriff.
01:28:06I don't think you've played this thing according to Hoyle, Colonel.
01:28:09Do not blame me, Mr. Steed, for what I do.
01:28:11Come on, Sheriff.
01:28:12I hope you know what you're doing, Colonel.
01:28:14I've always been a great lover of beauty.
01:28:16I love the beauty of cities, of lights on the water,
01:28:19of beautiful women.
01:28:25Get in there.
01:28:29When a man loves a woman half his age,
01:28:32there must be three great qualities in this love.
