A heroic guerrilla group fights back against impossible odds during the 1941 German invasion of the Soviet Union.
Transcript
00:00:14Here is the true story which could have happened in any land of a little group of free people
00:00:19who lived and loved and fought to drive the invaders from their native soil.
00:00:33One of the countless thousands of those guerrilla bands who, from secret hiding places in the swamps and in the
00:00:38great forests, lived days of imperishable glory.
00:00:46Their leader had been left behind by the army especially to organize them.
00:00:50Vladimir, as played by Mr. Gregory Peck, distinguished star of the New York stage.
00:00:55His adjutant was Semyon, who, Russian-born, had been a teacher at Oxford.
00:00:58And there was Yelena, a girl from the factories turned soldier.
00:01:02And Saisha, the amiable drunk, and Fyodor, the sentimental blacksmith.
00:01:08Dmitry, a farmer, and Petrov, the silent one.
00:01:14Sixteen-year-old Mita, the brave volunteer.
00:01:17And his sister Olga, the little mother.
00:01:21And later Nina joined the group, a dancer from Moscow, as played by Miss Tamara Tomonova, the internationally famous ballerina.
00:01:28By fall of that first year, the armies of Hitler were on the highways en route to Moscow, Leningrad, Stalingrad.
00:01:34They had learned it was not wisdom to venture far off the highways.
00:01:37For there in the deep stillness of the great Russian forests were the gorillas.
00:02:18For there in the high school, it was a всё-pastant.
00:02:24And I used to see it too.
00:02:25At the end of the morning it was the same thing.
00:02:31And after the day you kes it, I told me.
00:02:42Let's go.
00:03:19Now, you see, you fool, why didn't you stay home?
00:03:43Oh, my God.
00:04:07Go.
00:04:33Dimitri comes home in the wagon.
00:04:34Petrov comes up from the lake.
00:04:37Oh, good. Very fine.
00:04:41I have written in the record book here,
00:04:43one oil storage tank blown up. Single-handed.
00:04:47Oh, it was not so difficult. Not even as chewing a horse.
00:04:50Now, as to your household duties,
00:04:53you will peel the potatoes for supper tonight.
00:04:58Always the potatoes.
00:05:01Now, that doesn't seem to be the boulders.
00:05:04Comrade Professor, did you write it down
00:05:06that I found a derelict in the woods today?
00:05:08Yes, Comrade.
00:05:10She looked so little lying there,
00:05:11so I slung her over my shoulders,
00:05:13one with a little wounded deer.
00:05:21Better get on into the kitchen.
00:05:23Those potatoes won't peel themselves.
00:05:29Petrov, did you succeed?
00:05:31Yes. Here it is.
00:05:33How did you get it? How did it happen?
00:05:35I wished the road where the German courier would come.
00:05:38I stretched a strong, thin wire across.
00:05:42His motorcycle turned over and...
00:05:44You shot him.
00:05:46No, Smyr Ivanovich.
00:05:52Well, this dispatch is even better than I'd hoped for.
00:05:56Directly from German headquarters.
00:06:00It's remarkable that you managed to get these papers.
00:06:09Good evening, comrades.
00:06:12Good evening, Sasha.
00:06:14As I see, you have two pairs of boots.
00:06:17Which means you've finished off two fascists.
00:06:19Elena shot the boots.
00:06:21I only heard the shots.
00:06:24And I arrived in time to do the dirty job of the transport.
00:06:30Sasha, you are drunk again.
00:06:32Not while on duty, Comrade.
00:06:35I'll lay on the way home.
00:06:37Sorry, but I have to report it to the commander.
00:06:40Oh, don't do that.
00:06:41Set me on advantage.
00:06:42Don't do that.
00:06:43Look, I sleep off this tiny bit of drunkenness,
00:06:47and then when Vladimir comes, I promise I won't take a drop anymore.
00:06:52Where the devil do you manage to get a drink?
00:06:55The Germans, give it to me.
00:06:57You mean they come up and offer you a drink?
00:06:59Well, not exactly.
00:07:01First, we have to lay them down on the ground.
00:07:05You know, if the Germans can take the trouble of transporting it from their far country...
00:07:12Better give it to me.
00:07:22You should be at lookout.
00:07:24You better rest for a minute.
00:07:26The sayings are always true.
00:07:28And you know, Comrade,
00:07:29he who drinks when he's already drunk,
00:07:32plays the part of a wise man.
00:07:35What's this? Dimitri was to bring potatoes.
00:07:37Books.
00:07:38Books?
00:07:38What's what?
00:07:39Tolstoy Museum.
00:07:41The fascists fed fire to the buildings.
00:07:45Peter was murdered.
00:07:48God's will.
00:07:49Well, the treasures of the museum.
00:07:53The first edition.
00:07:54There are more in there to stress wagons.
00:07:57Now there is irony.
00:07:59The Nazis spill their lives over books.
00:08:02And what to them could be more useless?
00:08:07Well, then hurry, let's bring them in.
00:08:09Sarsgut patrol.
00:08:10Come on, let's help.
00:08:10Delader, you know your household duties for today.
00:08:13My congratulations for the death of two fascists.
00:08:15Now you will set the table, please.
00:08:24Come on.
00:08:25No good.
00:08:26Not enough salt.
00:08:28Is supper ready?
00:08:28How could it be ready?
00:08:30The borscht needs more cooking,
00:08:32and the cash is still hard.
00:08:34I had to do the potatoes myself.
00:08:37This blacksmith came late to help me.
00:08:40Much good a man in a kitchen does.
00:08:42I've sliced the bread, Ma Minga.
00:08:44Really, Olga?
00:08:45We're supposed to do our duties with more precision here.
00:08:47How could I?
00:08:48I had to make tea and run back and forth with it.
00:08:51Where to?
00:08:52To the package.
00:08:53What package?
00:08:54From Fjodor's bed.
00:08:55This afternoon he brought in a big package.
00:08:58Big coat and there's somebody in it.
00:09:00Half dead from...
00:09:02What was it the teacher said?
00:09:05Exposure...
00:09:05Exposure and no food.
00:09:08Teacher Semyon told me to give the package some hot tea.
00:09:11Tea?
00:09:12Oh, not the new tea, Jadenka.
00:09:15That we've used only twice.
00:09:17Think I might use it for someone who might live or might die?
00:09:20The old tea.
00:09:22That we've used six times already.
00:09:24Oh, the old tea.
00:09:27Here is the good old borscht.
00:09:29You made the same old borscht.
00:09:31Always grumbling.
00:09:35Quiet.
00:09:46Get your guns.
00:09:48Browse the lights.
00:10:04Who's here?
00:10:06Vladimir.
00:10:07Stand at attention!
00:10:21He said attention.
00:10:23Why is the entrance unguarded?
00:10:26Whose negligence is this?
00:10:28Who was assigned to look out?
00:10:29I am responsible, comrade, commander.
00:10:32I am very sorry.
00:10:34There is nothing wrong, little comrade.
00:10:37Breathe on me.
00:10:49You know you could be shot for this.
00:10:51I am a dirty, stinking pig, my commander.
00:10:54That's what I am.
00:10:55That's the truth.
00:10:56But I swear, never again.
00:10:58I've never known you to be drunk on duty.
00:11:01Or to fail to be a good soldier in a tight spot.
00:11:06I'll tell you your punishment tomorrow.
00:11:09Get up where you belong.
00:11:10Mitja, don't you want to kiss me?
00:11:11Don't you see that I am in service?
00:11:16Who are you?
00:11:17Just an old peasant.
00:11:19I know him very well.
00:11:20It's ten days since he's with us.
00:11:21I can watch for him.
00:11:22Where is Sergei and Mikhail?
00:11:25They died.
00:11:31Vladimir, supper will spoil.
00:11:34Now?
00:11:35Yes.
00:11:36Yes.
00:11:39Little sister.
00:11:41Over here with your back to the fire.
00:11:42You must be chilled.
00:11:43I'll fetch the plates.
00:11:44Now, tell us your news.
00:11:45Whom did you see at headquarters?
00:11:46Yes.
00:11:47Whom did you talk to?
00:11:47Over here, Mitja.
00:11:49By me.
00:11:50Did you see Comrade General Pimoshenko?
00:11:52Of course we saw him.
00:11:53Did you?
00:11:53We were as close to him as I am to you now.
00:11:56Then another general came in and patted me on the shoulder and said,
00:11:58How are you?
00:11:59How are you?
00:11:59He was an excellent man.
00:12:01Now seriously, we would like to learn a few things.
00:12:03Well, Mitja has said it.
00:12:05We went to headquarters.
00:12:06We saw a general and the general patted us on the shoulder.
00:12:09Did you bring the new parts for the field radio, Comrade?
00:12:12Yes.
00:12:13I must warn all of you that we're not permitted to use the radio in the future.
00:12:17Especially for the sending of any messages.
00:12:20It's particularly important that the Nazis do not discover us now.
00:12:24For any special reason, Comrade?
00:12:27Orders.
00:12:28I'll tell you what I'm permitted.
00:12:32Olga.
00:12:33I have to report that your brother Mitja has behaved excellently.
00:12:38Even though on the way back through the lines our situation was rather dangerous.
00:12:42I cooked the dinner.
00:12:44The kasha too.
00:12:45The kasha is very good.
00:12:48Let him tell it.
00:12:50The kasha is unusually good, Nunnick.
00:12:53I'm hungry.
00:13:01I'm hungry.
00:13:01Who is this?
00:13:02The package woke up.
00:13:04How do you feel now?
00:13:05All right, I think.
00:13:06A little hungry.
00:13:07Oh, that's easily fixed.
00:13:08Come on.
00:13:08When I left, this was a place on whose secrecy our lives depended.
00:13:12Has it become now an open house for just anybody?
00:13:14It has.
00:13:15I'll get dishes.
00:13:16Oh.
00:13:16Does it beat with your approval, Comrade leader, that I fetch the strange woman a plate for soup?
00:13:20I mean...
00:13:21Of course, and stop acting like a general.
00:13:24Go on with supper.
00:13:26First, you had better tell us your name.
00:13:29My name?
00:13:31Nina.
00:13:32Nina Ivanova.
00:13:33What are you?
00:13:35Partisans?
00:13:39I am Mitya.
00:13:40Mitya.
00:13:41Come here.
00:13:48It is she who is answering who she is.
00:13:51How did you get here?
00:13:52Comrade Stalin issued a request.
00:13:54The theatrical group should go to the front to entertain the soldiers.
00:13:57There was a surprise attack.
00:13:59We were scattered.
00:14:00I set out to find my uncle and Tula.
00:14:03In the woods I became confused.
00:14:06And this good man found me.
00:14:10I was fighting it, Tula.
00:14:12Why didn't you take it to safety farther back?
00:14:14I was tired, Comrade.
00:14:18Working all last night and all day.
00:14:21But here?
00:14:22Is it too much to ask for a place at your table or at your fire side?
00:14:26What can you do?
00:14:27Can you shoot a gun?
00:14:29A gun?
00:14:30Can you kill?
00:14:31Oh, I couldn't kill.
00:14:33What's your record, Yelena?
00:14:35Sixty-three with today.
00:14:38Well, in the south there is a girl who has killed more than one hundred.
00:14:43You can cook?
00:14:44Oh, no.
00:14:46Can't cook?
00:14:47And you're a woman?
00:14:49Can you scrub?
00:14:51Men clothes?
00:14:52I never have.
00:14:53What can you do?
00:14:55I'm a dancer.
00:14:56I can dance.
00:14:57Really a dancer?
00:14:59That's exactly what we need here.
00:15:08Sasha, you're a drunken fool.
00:15:11Much better for all of us if the Comrade leader had you shot.
00:15:18I was sent to relieve you.
00:15:20Any supper left?
00:15:21Enough.
00:15:22How is it?
00:15:23My happy home underground.
00:15:25A strange woman woke up.
00:15:27The commanders decided to let her stay with us a while.
00:15:34Why is he winking?
00:15:42When we dance, you'll see him dancing.
00:15:46When we sing, he shakes the skies.
00:15:50But at last, when comes the parting, he says nothing, only sighs.
00:15:56Who knows why he's sighing?
00:15:59But why is he sighing?
00:16:02Yes, why is he sighing?
00:16:04Oh, why is he sighing?
00:16:12Till he told my friends he loved me and that soon I would be his bride.
00:16:19Then one day he left the village and he ran away to hide.
00:16:27Who knows where he's hiding?
00:16:29Oh, why is he hiding?
00:16:32Yes, where is he hiding?
00:16:34Oh, where is he hiding?
00:16:41Now the postman, he is bringing letters strange as they can be.
00:16:49On the pages there is nothing but some dots for me to see.
00:16:56Who knows what they're saying?
00:16:59Oh, what are they saying?
00:17:01Yes, what are they saying?
00:17:04Oh, what are they saying?
00:17:11But one night I found him waiting.
00:17:15Then at last my lips were kissed.
00:17:19And I slapped his face for waiting.
00:17:23One for every kiss I've missed.
00:17:25Who knows what we're missing?
00:17:28Oh, what we've been missing.
00:17:30Yes, what we've been missing.
00:17:33Oh, what we've been missing.
00:17:40With what attention she bawled over a sentimental novel.
00:17:45She drank in with what intense enjoyment each sweet seductive fantasy.
00:17:51To these figures, life had come.
00:17:54Through her dreams, happy medium.
00:17:57This is after she fell in love with the hero of her dreams
00:18:00who did not reciprocate her feelings at all.
00:18:03Is it important today what happened in a fictitious love story?
00:18:06Yes, and this cruel today when the girls fight alongside the men.
00:18:10We can smile in Pushkin's time.
00:18:13A young girl is being considered audacious for writing a love letter.
00:18:17But what a love letter it is.
00:18:20I write you.
00:18:21Yes.
00:18:23If I took an hour, I could not make myself more plain.
00:18:27And now you have it in your power to punish me with your disdain.
00:18:31Yes, that's it.
00:18:33But if you find you have for me the smallest drop of sympathy,
00:18:38you will not leave me in such pain.
00:18:42Oh, please.
00:18:43Go on.
00:18:45Why did you ever come to call?
00:18:47For in this far forgotten spot we never should have met at all.
00:18:52In all this pain so burning hard I might have missed.
00:18:57But no, there is no other man to whom I could have given my love.
00:19:02And I am yours by heaven's plan determined in the courts above.
00:19:08My life so far has been the pledge of this sure meeting God would send.
00:19:14Time to go to sleep.
00:19:16Time for who to go to sleep?
00:19:18We have been in duty for more than 20 hours.
00:19:28What sort of place is this?
00:19:30The monastery once.
00:19:31This was occupied by comrade Mikhail who died a good soldier.
00:19:36You may use it tonight.
00:19:44Thank you for your kindness, comrade.
00:19:46You're welcome, I shall.
00:19:52A woman of this world who knows nothing to be a housewife.
00:19:55When you grow up you will know that we should admire such a woman.
00:20:00Stop that confounded cat concert.
00:20:03It wasn't you who found her.
00:20:04Shut up, you dirty blacksmith.
00:20:07You think I'm afraid of your muscles?
00:20:09If you don't shut up I'm going to punch you in the belly so hard.
00:20:12What's this? Since when is this going on?
00:20:13That's what never happened before, comrade.
00:20:19Haven't you enough Germans to fight you two?
00:20:24We're going to have more to do than quarrel like schoolboys.
00:20:30We'll look these over in the morning.
00:20:37And where are you going?
00:20:39Oh, I just thought that I would steal into the village little one of us.
00:20:45To see the old woman.
00:20:48At first you would think that I'm a German invader.
00:20:51Good night.
00:20:53Good night.
00:20:53All of you.
00:20:56I don't know what possessed me.
00:21:05Velodya.
00:21:07I'll relieve Petrov on the watch.
00:21:09You must be tired.
00:21:11We have to be doubly cautious now.
00:21:14But tonight, you were gone for a long time.
00:21:20There are some plans I must think through before I can rest.
00:21:24Send her away, Velodya.
00:21:25She'll spoil everything.
00:21:29I beg your pardon, comrade commander.
00:21:35I'm happy you've returned safely.
00:21:37I'm happy too, to be back tonight.
00:21:41Good night, comrade.
00:21:43Good night, comrade.
00:21:44Good night.
00:21:53You go down to the trough, I'll watch.
00:21:56Very well.
00:22:11Comrade commander.
00:22:13I would like to ask you that when the end comes, because the end is coming for us here.
00:22:20What are you talking about?
00:22:22I have watched you since you have returned.
00:22:25I have seen there is something.
00:22:27When a man has a load on his heart, he can easily recognize a load on another man's heart.
00:22:36Listen.
00:22:39One day soon, this message will come from the military front.
00:22:43Snow will fall.
00:22:45And then it will really start.
00:22:48The fate of this line and this whole front may depend on us.
00:22:53Maybe that we'll pay.
00:22:55Maybe.
00:22:56Maybe not.
00:22:58Will you be afraid?
00:23:01Comrade commander.
00:23:02What I wanted to ask from you is that when the time comes,
00:23:06put me in a place where I can kill the most of them.
00:23:10I would like to be a bomb to be thrown among them.
00:23:13To explode myself and kill one of them with every little splinter.
00:23:19That is our order time.
00:23:24Go get some sleep, Comrade.
00:23:27Sleep.
00:23:30You can sleep.
00:23:36For a week, the commander formulated his plans that in the stern necessities of war,
00:23:41the beauties of life, the music and the poetry were put aside.
00:23:46Meet you.
00:23:47Anything in sight?
00:23:49Nothing, commander.
00:23:52Is it completely understood?
00:23:53To place our artillery in the woods in an arc on both sides of the valley.
00:23:57All the way down to the village is marked on Simeon's map.
00:24:00Well camouflaged.
00:24:01I can't bear it anymore.
00:24:03For a week now.
00:24:04She can't even make soup.
00:24:07Where are you all going?
00:24:09None of a very little girl's business.
00:24:10Why are you so cruel to me?
00:24:12Good night, everybody.
00:24:13Meet you.
00:24:14Take this back.
00:24:15We'll come out.
00:24:17Meet you.
00:24:17Where are you going?
00:24:19At least can't a man take a stroll if he feels like it?
00:24:29Meet you.
00:24:30Yes, are you frightened?
00:24:32Well, I'm frightened by so many things it really doesn't matter.
00:24:36Meet you.
00:24:38Meet you.
00:24:38I could kill you.
00:24:40Meet you.
00:24:40If I didn't love you so much, I could kill you.
00:24:45Tell me something about yourself.
00:24:47What's your aim in life?
00:24:49What's your dream?
00:24:49I want to be a geologist.
00:24:51Oh, a geologist.
00:24:53That's very interesting.
00:24:55I attended the school of agriculture already in our village.
00:24:58I began to learn what treasures the Russian soil contains.
00:25:02My father was with me in the same class.
00:25:05We sat in the same bench side by side.
00:25:09He was 50 and just starting to learn reading and writing.
00:25:14He was such a good steward.
00:25:18Then came these beasts of Nazis and destroyed our village.
00:25:22Our marvelous school.
00:25:25The Nazis killed my father.
00:25:27They burned him in a storehouse with some of the other people.
00:25:31And took away my mother.
00:25:35And I escaped for a little hour.
00:25:45But one day our commander will lead us to Berlin.
00:25:48And I want to be the one who puts fire to the Nazi university.
00:25:51That's my dream.
00:25:53I'm so sorry for you, Mitya.
00:25:55Don't be.
00:25:56I like this life.
00:25:58The fight for our mother Russia.
00:26:00It's a great adventure.
00:26:03Mitya, I'll force you something.
00:26:04Something very beautiful.
00:26:07One day you must receive from life a great medal.
00:26:11One you will not wear on your coat, but in your heart.
00:26:15I wish I could have something to give you.
00:26:19Mitya, do you like the theatre?
00:26:21I never saw any.
00:26:22That's not true.
00:26:24Our village is very small.
00:26:26No actors ever came there.
00:26:29If I could only go.
00:26:30Just once.
00:26:31I suppose the theatre came to you.
00:26:32You are joking.
00:26:34Why?
00:26:35I'm a ballerina from the Moscow theatre.
00:26:38And not a better one either, I can tell you.
00:26:40Here.
00:26:41Sit down here.
00:26:43I will make a little performance for you.
00:26:47Now.
00:26:48You're out there.
00:26:51And here's the stage.
00:26:54The footlight's so.
00:26:56The curtain is not yet up.
00:26:59And in my dressing room, I'm half crazy with excitement.
00:27:03Well, good dear.
00:27:04Join us.
00:27:05Sit over there with me.
00:27:06At least you might have brought it all the way.
00:27:08Don't mind her.
00:27:09Continue.
00:27:10You're in the dressing room.
00:27:11Oh, yes.
00:27:12I look in the mirror to see if I'm made up.
00:27:14All right.
00:27:16My body's in the back.
00:27:17Do it up, please.
00:27:18My tutu, is it fluffy?
00:27:20I want to be at my best tonight.
00:27:23And now, it's almost time.
00:27:27And I'm in the wings and I'm trembling.
00:27:30And do you know why I'm trembling, Mita, to you?
00:27:35Because you are out front.
00:27:37And you are the most important person in the world.
00:27:40Because you are the audience.
00:27:42Are you proud?
00:27:48Without you, there is nothing.
00:27:50No success, no career, no performance.
00:27:56And now, out front the overture begins.
00:28:03Can you hear the music, Mita?
00:28:11It's very beautiful.
00:28:18Now the curtain is rising.
00:28:24Flooding the stage with light.
00:28:28I'm standing in the middle of the stage at one point.
00:28:31It is very difficult to do, but I can do it for almost one minute.
00:28:48Mita.
00:28:53Hold still.
00:29:02Hold still.
00:29:05Over there.
00:29:17What is that?
00:29:21What are you doing here?
00:29:23Who are you?
00:29:25And how are you here?
00:29:27What is he asking?
00:29:28Who are you?
00:29:30What can I tell you?
00:29:32It's cold outside and little brother and I found here shelter.
00:29:36He's fifteen, just a boy.
00:29:38I'll kill you.
00:29:39Mita!
00:29:39The fool doesn't understand.
00:29:41I'll kill you, I'll kill you all!
00:29:48I'll kill you all!
00:29:53Aha.
00:29:54And what is that?
00:29:56A gorilla nest?
00:29:58And what are the others?
00:30:04In there?
00:30:05No one is here.
00:30:22What is that?
00:30:24What are you doing here?
00:30:26What are you doing here?
00:30:27What are you doing here?
00:30:31The Mowokommando will be the one.
00:30:33The Mowokommando will be the one.
00:30:34The Gorillas, yes?
00:30:35The Schleicher, you are afraid, our wonderful Reichswehr in the open slag to fight.
00:30:41But the Gorillas will try to kill us from the ambush.
00:30:59The Mowokommando.
00:31:00I got them.
00:31:01Comrade commander, I hear by report that we've captured a German.
00:31:03Good work.
00:31:11What's your name?
00:31:13Your name.
00:31:16Answer when you're spoken to.
00:31:17You might hurt your knuckles, Comrade.
00:31:20Your name.
00:31:21Your name.
00:31:23Johann Schnau.
00:31:24Your regiment.
00:31:25Your regiment.
00:31:27Infantry Regiment 32.
00:31:2932nd Infantry Regiment.
00:31:31Live, 45th mechanized. Your commander.
00:31:34Your commandant.
00:31:37Don't you know?
00:31:38Von Rinholtz.
00:31:40Where are you stationed?
00:31:42Vostedia.
00:31:44What do you mean?
00:31:45Lie.
00:31:46Yes, mea Poliana.
00:31:47You came five days ago.
00:31:48How many of you?
00:31:49Vistar.
00:31:505,000.
00:31:51Lie. 2,000.
00:31:52How many tanks?
00:31:53How many tanks?
00:31:54200.
00:31:54200.
00:31:54200.
00:31:5575.
00:31:56Lies everywhere.
00:31:57Finish him off.
00:31:58It's my right.
00:31:59Step to one side.
00:32:00Gnossam.
00:32:00Gnossam.
00:32:01Waste your ammunition.
00:32:02This is much simpler.
00:32:07Does the sight offend you?
00:32:12Then go where you won't see it.
00:32:14This is our affair.
00:32:15You're not one of us.
00:32:26Don't do it, comrade.
00:32:28I'm only thinking...
00:32:30This man is a prisoner of war.
00:32:32He was captured in his uniform.
00:32:34According to international agreement, he's entitled to a trial before sentence is pronounced.
00:32:38To a national agreement with the Nazis?
00:32:40Do they have trials and pronounced sentence before they kill hundreds and thousands of people who are not even armed?
00:32:46We are guerrillas and guerrillas are guerrillas.
00:32:48We hunt and are hunted.
00:32:50What do we know about prisoners?
00:32:51Listen, comrades.
00:32:52In this world of blood and misery, there must be some place.
00:32:56Small and underground though it may be, where the laws of justice and humanity are preserved.
00:33:01To as you wish.
00:33:03But I would be very proud if it could be this place.
00:33:08Tomorrow then, our work in the forest will take all night.
00:33:11Lock him in a cell and stay on guard.
00:33:13I'll take Meaty with us.
00:33:14Keep him out of mischief.
00:33:16That was your soup I threw on him.
00:33:19March.
00:33:21Go ahead.
00:33:27I brought you some hot tea.
00:33:29That's very kind, Nina.
00:33:32Over here then.
00:33:37Find your step.
00:33:39Why aren't you asleep?
00:33:41I was restless.
00:33:42And unhappy?
00:33:43A little.
00:33:44How did you guess?
00:33:45Oh, I look at you a good deal.
00:33:47I do.
00:33:49More than you suspect.
00:33:51What is that?
00:33:53The Germans have brought up heavy guns to the village.
00:33:56The front of Tula is only six miles away.
00:33:58So, Nina.
00:34:08Is it the war makes you unhappy?
00:34:11Why do they make me an outsider?
00:34:14He especially.
00:34:15He never even looks at me if he can help it.
00:34:18He has grave problems.
00:34:21And the others?
00:34:21Is it because I'm not such a cook as Olga,
00:34:23or can't shoot a gun like Yelena?
00:34:27Because I'm frightened.
00:34:30I can't bear the thought of always murdering,
00:34:33killing and death and death.
00:34:35To them, you are a person from a strange world.
00:34:38A world of music and poetry and dancing.
00:34:42They're a little afraid of you.
00:34:45But I want to be one of them.
00:34:48You are warm to me and me too.
00:34:53I understand you for what you are.
00:34:57A person of light.
00:34:59Such life.
00:35:00Out of place in this region of death.
00:35:08Go in, my dear.
00:35:10Forget the cold.
00:35:12Thank you again for the tea.
00:35:15I thank you.
00:35:16I understand now.
00:35:18Bless you.
00:36:03I'm looking for water.
00:36:05I'm Very horrible.
00:36:06Please don't cry.
00:36:07I'm asking you.
00:36:11You daddy bring me home.
00:36:15Look at my fingers.
00:36:17They are bleeding.
00:36:18Come on.
00:36:20The burden is getting worried.
00:36:21Lade, Fräulein.
00:36:24Lassen Sie mich eine Minute nur ausruhen.
00:36:27Nur noch einige Worte.
00:36:29Dann gehe ich.
00:36:31Sit still. Halt still.
00:37:01What is it? What happened?
00:37:04It's determined.
00:37:07Somebody shot him.
00:37:12Who did it, comrade Nina?
00:37:14Nina?
00:37:15It must have been Nina.
00:37:17Her?
00:37:21I...
00:37:23I came to say, in the name of the whole detachment,
00:37:27please accept appreciation.
00:37:30Your courageous action in a dangerous situation.
00:37:36I...
00:37:38I know that for you it was especially difficult.
00:37:42Simeon told you?
00:37:44No.
00:37:47One knows and...
00:37:50feels a lot of things.
00:37:53Of which it's untimely to speak, Mel.
00:38:00You must understand that this place here with us
00:38:02is still no proper place for you.
00:38:04For your own good and safety.
00:38:08I hope, however, that for the time being
00:38:10you will feel that...
00:38:13you're one of us.
00:38:18Good night.
00:38:19All right.
00:38:21Good morning.
00:38:25Good night.
00:38:35All right.
00:38:36Good morning.
00:38:37Good morning.
00:38:38Constantly the guerrilla bands harassed the enemy.
00:38:41Emerging from their secret hiding places.
00:38:44Stealing like shadows through the woods.
00:38:51Tonight was their time for action.
00:38:53And tonight the band of Vladimir was astir.
00:38:57Leaving Theodore on guard at home.
00:39:01Here you are, Fyodor.
00:39:03Potato soup and bread.
00:39:05When are you going to bring me a nice fat hen?
00:39:07Hen?
00:39:08What for, Olinka?
00:39:10I want to make chicken soup.
00:39:12Nithya likes it very much.
00:39:15Well, the time will come when we will have a fat hen in the pot, Olinka.
00:39:20If not now, then soon.
00:39:23We are going to sit around the tables again.
00:39:26In our homes.
00:39:28In the nice new houses.
00:39:29And we'll talk about this war as if about a nightmare.
00:39:34And everybody will praise the nice chicken soup.
00:39:38Big Olga will make.
00:39:39In those days, I'll be married to Mithya.
00:39:43Married to Mithya?
00:39:44Is it?
00:39:45Married to your brother?
00:39:46Don't you know that the law doesn't allow that?
00:39:49That's what Mithya said.
00:39:51Who made such a law?
00:39:53Who makes all the laws?
00:39:55I don't know.
00:39:56Well, if he can't marry me,
00:39:58he should marry someone as much like me as possible.
00:40:01A good housewife.
00:40:03Certainly not that strange woman.
00:40:06Why would the comrade commander take her with us tonight anyway?
00:40:09To teach her, I suppose.
00:40:11Well, she did shoot a German.
00:40:15Will they blow up the train, do you think?
00:40:18I hope so.
00:40:19And will they kill a lot of Germans?
00:40:21Perhaps.
00:40:22Good.
00:40:23And will we hear it here?
00:40:26Likely they'll hear it in Berlin.
00:40:37Setting the dynamite under the rails.
00:40:53An army train.
00:40:55Just as comrade Vladima thought.
00:40:58Right?
00:41:00Green.
00:41:01You can trust comrade Yelena.
00:41:03Stay here.
00:41:15Let's get back now.
00:41:16The ammunition train won't be far behind.
00:41:41Let's get back now.
00:41:42The ammunition train won't be far behind.
00:41:43Good.
00:41:44Comrade, the guard train has stopped.
00:41:51He's coming back.
00:41:53They've gotten suspicious.
00:41:55There's still time, comrade.
00:42:28There's plenty.
00:42:28Look at solid딧.
00:42:30You can see Putnamaki would be far behind these on the guard.
00:42:30What'd you do?
00:42:34The BP, he was dead here, with the blanket would be my keys to the metal.
00:42:39You were notける.
00:42:41It'll be able to come to the buncilies.
00:42:42That's what the force has put on all sides of the back.
00:42:42Feel open.
00:42:42Flags �
00:42:48Let's go.
00:43:13Let's go.

00:48:37But music and children all over the land were named for it.
00:48:41It was our own creation, and I'd helped build it.
00:48:52And when the Germans came, I helped destroy it.
00:49:07I imagine that the professor could tell us what happened to me then.
00:49:11Yes, Simeon Ivanovich would phrase it neatly.
00:49:15When you destroy something you're greatly loved.
00:49:20You learn to love to destroy.
00:49:24Then do you? Does it give you happiness?
00:49:29Sometimes when I destroy something that's been built...
00:49:34I could weep.
00:49:36Then I look for something else to destroy and the feeling goes away.
00:49:39Let me in your arms, darling.
00:49:42Mina, Minajka.
00:49:45Where do you come from?
00:49:48Your eyes are wonderful as a forgotten dream.
00:49:53The strange woman. That's what little Alia calls you.
00:49:58Alia.
00:50:00Am I alright for you?
00:50:02You?
00:50:03A woman has to know.
00:50:05Am I alright?
00:50:07You're perfect.
00:50:08Never mind perfect.
00:50:09But am I alright?
00:50:12Yes, you're alright.
00:50:15There is nothing that I cannot do for you.
00:50:18And you can always tell me why your heart is sore and I can mend it.
00:50:23And always.
00:50:25You will never send me away from you now.
00:50:31Will you?
00:50:33I'm yours and there has never been anyone else.
00:50:35And there is nothing you cannot do with me.
00:50:38But you will not send me away.
00:50:40Will you?
00:50:42I'll never send you away from me.
00:50:46Until the day I die.
00:50:49I promise.
00:50:58Oh, Rinka.
00:50:59This morning Natasha here.
00:51:02And I have figured out how we can make order in the whole world.
00:51:07The Germans like to fight.
00:51:09Alright.
00:51:10Let them go and fight Japan.
00:51:12They both will enjoy it.
00:51:14Let them kill each other.
00:51:15and we will have peace in the world, eh?
00:51:18I'll get that girl for you.
00:51:20How she can dance.
00:51:22How she sings.
00:51:24Makes beautiful embroidery with golden thread.
00:51:27But even the Turkish publisher has a white likeness.
00:51:32Good morning, friends.
00:51:34Good morning, comrades.
00:51:37Well, the train blew nicely.
00:51:38You all did very well.
00:51:40The signals worked perfectly.
00:51:51Well, would you have anything special to report?
00:51:53Very little, Commander.
00:51:55As you ordered, we all rushed home.
00:51:56We've stayed here.
00:51:57But in the whole vicinity, the Nazis kept circling about.
00:52:01Yes, that's why it wasn't advisable for us to come back before.
00:52:07Have you all had breakfast?
00:52:08It's been kept warm. I'll bring it.
00:52:11Good to be home again.
00:52:13Well, go on with whatever you are doing.
00:52:16Are you reading?
00:52:18As it happens, we were in the midst of a most,
00:52:21shall I say, significant tale
00:52:22from Lermontog,
00:52:24the hero of our time.
00:52:27We were at that point where
00:52:29Pichorin, the hero,
00:52:30the magnificent soldier,
00:52:32was about to steal away with the beautiful Bella.
00:52:34Stop it!
00:52:35Stop it!
00:52:36Now, what the devil is the matter with you?
00:52:38I want to go away from it.
00:52:40I thought we were going to do something great
00:52:41just to look on while they put a little dynamite under the tracks
00:52:44and then to run home and hide and hear somebody read out of a storybook.
00:52:47Is that my duty?
00:52:48Stop raiding, you silly boy.
00:52:50You call me a silly boy?
00:52:52You.
00:52:53And what are you?
00:52:55What kind of a commander are you?
00:52:56Meet you.
00:53:05Perhaps reading wasn't a good idea.
00:53:08If there's action you want,
00:53:09I promise you,
00:53:10you're going to get plenty of it.
00:53:12Enough to satisfy even meet you.
00:53:13This very night,
00:53:14someone must go through the German lines
00:53:16to carry a message to our military command.
00:53:18I'd go myself,
00:53:19except my orders forbid me.
00:53:21Commander.
00:53:22My commander.
00:53:24Send me.
00:53:26No, meet you.
00:53:27Let me know that you forgive me.
00:53:30Please send me.
00:53:32That's a good spirit, meet you.
00:53:34But I need every man here.
00:53:38Nor it must be a woman, because
00:53:39disguised as a peasant,
00:53:41she'll have more chance to get through the lines.
00:53:43Well, commander,
00:53:45there are only two of us here.
00:53:49Which do you send?
00:53:54I'm willing to go.
00:53:57Which do you send?
00:54:07This undertaking requires
00:54:09an experienced combatant,
00:54:10seasoned soldier who must go through.
00:54:13Elena, I signed the work to you.
00:54:22I'm ready.
00:54:24Have you been able to memorize the message?
00:54:27Red 152,
00:54:28white 3,
00:54:29yellow 57,
00:54:30stop,
00:54:30green 1000,
00:54:31purple 55,
00:54:32blue 1 number.
00:54:32Good.
00:54:34As you may guess,
00:54:35that is code to tell the strength of our forces.
00:54:38And those are the Germans
00:54:39in the village of Jasnia Pagliana.
00:54:41Do you know perfectly your directions?
00:54:44I will ride to the edge of the woods.
00:54:47There I will leave my horse
00:54:48and make my way through the Nazi land
00:54:50to the camp of the guerrilla leader Simeonov.
00:54:52I will deliver this message
00:54:54to the military command
00:54:55and receive one to bring back here.
00:54:58What troubles you, comrade?
00:54:59Nothing.
00:55:01I offended you.
00:55:02No, commander,
00:55:02there is nothing.
00:55:05I will deliver this message
00:55:06and bring a message back.
00:55:08Have I ever failed you in my duty?
00:55:10You've never failed me in anything.
00:55:12Then why are you suddenly so concerned
00:55:13that I will fail this time?
00:55:17I'm not.
00:55:21Well, they're already at the stable.
00:55:24Then is it all right that I start
00:55:26without any more discussion?
00:55:28Yes.
00:55:30Good luck, Leninczka.
00:55:31Same to you, commander.
00:55:45Good luck, Lenin.
00:56:07Mama.
00:56:09Mohammed, it's good.
00:56:11Lenin, I'm here.
00:56:13Go back to sleep.
00:56:23Wer zum Teufel kann das sein?
00:56:26Nicht eine von uns,
00:56:28die uns entweiten nicht.
00:56:34I'm sorry, I'm going to kill you today.
00:56:37You can't.
00:56:38Too far.
00:56:412 Mark.
00:57:252 Mark.
00:57:26What are you doing? Why aren't you?
00:57:27I didn't sleep. I felt there was something.
00:57:31Just now I jumped with fright.
00:57:34You were dreaming.
00:57:35And you let me.
00:57:38I'm restless.
00:57:41Is Yelena all right, do you think?
00:57:44Why shouldn't she be?
00:57:46I saw the way she looked.
00:57:49She thinks it is because of us you sent her.
00:57:52That would be nonsense.
00:57:54Any commander in my place would have done the same thing.
00:57:57It's ridiculous to suppose there was any other thought.
00:58:02Well, sometimes a woman can be ridiculous.
00:58:08What was Yelena to you, if you want to tell me?
00:58:13Yelena, nothing. We were comrades.
00:58:21Well, Yelena...
00:58:25But I can tell you there was no love as we understand it.
00:58:29Not one part of it.
00:58:32Then my being here has not been a trouble to you.
00:58:40I'll tell you.
00:58:41I try to remember when I didn't know you.
00:58:44I can't.
00:58:46I can only remember an emptiness.
00:58:49Hatred.
00:58:50Death.
00:58:51Waiting.
00:58:52For what I didn't know.
00:58:53I always knew where you were.
00:58:55To have found you only now.
00:58:56It is wonderful.
00:58:57So wonderful.
00:58:58It is agony.
00:59:00You've done a dreadful thing to me, my dear, dear Yelena.
00:59:04You've taught me to love life again.
00:59:15What is it, Fyodor?
00:59:17Oh, Comrade Commander.
00:59:18I hear something from the forest.
00:59:20As if a horse is running.
00:59:27Stay here.
00:59:40Oof.
00:59:46Fresh blood, Commander.
00:59:52Now and ever, and unto ages of ages, amen.
00:59:58May our true God establish the soul of his servant,
01:00:02Yelena Kamarova, brave soldier and good woman,
01:00:07She wished so much to see the snow.
01:00:11In this world, very few of us can choose the time of our entrance or exit.
01:00:18Amen.
01:00:19Here's some bread, a little chocolate.
01:00:24Are you sure you want to go?
01:00:26Yelena is dead, and I with you am responsible.
01:00:30Yelena is dead because she stopped a German bullet.
01:00:35Do you know the way?
01:00:36The map you drew is in front of my eyes, and I have your compass.
01:00:39The code?
01:00:40Like anything you will ever tell me.
01:00:42It's learned by heart.
01:00:45I'll go to the house of Fyodor's wife on the outskirts of the village.
01:00:48Bring the message to me there tomorrow.
01:00:52You're going alone?
01:00:54Who's Petrov?
01:00:56Lighten your heart, you're a soldier now.
01:00:58Be brave and cautious.
01:01:00Nothing else, Commander.
01:01:03Hurry.
01:01:08Meet you.
01:01:09Meet you.
01:01:09Yes, Commander.
01:01:10Meet you.
01:01:12Go with it.
01:01:13Very good, Commander.
01:01:16And I assure you, Comrade, I will guard with my life the woman we both love.
01:01:21Yelena!
01:01:24Children.
01:01:42Don't worry, little comrade.
01:01:44There's only one thing you have to remember.
01:01:45Not to get captured.
01:01:46If you're captured, even I can't help you.
01:01:48That's the law of the guerrillas.
01:01:49If one is captured, he's gone.
01:01:51Then while you're talking, you better tell me how not to be captured.
01:01:54Oh, I'll see that you're not.
01:01:55And on the other hand, if you are captured, remember you must not talk.
01:01:58Not one word to the dirty Germans.
01:02:09There's no doubt.
01:02:10There's no doubt.
01:02:11You might as well play.
01:02:14Go on!
01:02:16And on the other hand, you are not sure.
01:02:18I can't believe in one o'clock.
01:02:18Go on!
01:02:18I can't believe in one o'clock.
01:02:19Or you see what's your fault?
01:02:24I can't believe in one o'clock in the morning.
01:02:27There's no doubt.
01:02:28I can't believe in one o'clock.
01:02:29Let's go.
01:02:52Nikahil Saharov of the Vladyma detachment...
01:02:54...respectfully reports Nina Ivanova in an important mission.
01:02:57Nina Ivanova, from Moscow, from the theater?
01:03:00Yes.
01:03:01One of our most beloved artists.
01:03:03You will forgive me for not recognizing you immediately this costume.
01:03:06It was clever, Vladimir, to send two of you.
01:03:08It is much safer.
01:03:10Which one of you is to deliver the message?
01:03:13Red 152, white 3, yellow 57.
01:03:16The headman thinks I'm an angel.
01:03:18He has no idea.
01:03:19The white brings the street down and I'm here.
01:03:22She enters the house and closes the door.
01:03:25But the window was broken.
01:03:36Tell Fyodor not to come home.
01:03:38It is better if he doesn't see what is happening here.
01:03:40His heart would break, seeing what these pigs do to his family, to the whole village.
01:03:46Everlasting fire burns their souls.
01:03:48Now, we're not here to curse and complain.
01:03:50I want to know what you've learned about them.
01:03:52Is the disposal of mechanized equipment the same as it was?
01:03:55Yes.
01:03:55The tanks at the end of the airfield.
01:03:57The trucks and guns in the streets and at the barracks.
01:04:00You keep track of the oil tanks.
01:04:01Have they made new depots?
01:04:02Yes.
01:04:03Behind the railroad station.
01:04:13Where?
01:04:14Comrade Tremender, I report that we have arrived safely.
01:04:18Now, tell me, are you all right?
01:04:20Is it difficult?
01:04:21Did you bring the message?
01:04:22Well, the journey through the forest was completely uneventful.
01:04:26Then we proceeded on the right road, but the German tanks came along,
01:04:28so I thought it better to go through the marsh, which I know like the palm of my hand.
01:04:31So you arrived at the camp?
01:04:32Yes, darling.
01:04:33And Colonel Velenko himself received us.
01:04:34Oh, he's a very nice man.
01:04:36Well, thank you very much, he said.
01:04:37It was good work.
01:04:38Did you deliver the coast?
01:04:39Yes, darling.
01:04:40Then an extremely friendly partisan.
01:04:41This comrade commander Simenor...
01:04:43Stop it, me, dear.
01:04:44What is the message?
01:04:45The snow will fall tomorrow.
01:04:49The snow will fall tomorrow.
01:04:51The message is very peculiar.
01:04:53But it's most certain that it's been showing all day.
01:04:55So...
01:04:57It's tomorrow.
01:05:00Watch out, German soldiers are coming.
01:05:02Get down, quickly.
01:05:04Remove the ladder.
01:05:22What is this?
01:05:25Don't you even say a greeting to German soldiers?
01:05:29You are to get out of this house at once.
01:05:31Our soldiers need it.
01:05:37Why are you looking at me like this?
01:05:39Maybe you don't like it.
01:05:40We would freeze to death outside in that bitter cold.
01:05:43You still have too much warm clothing.
01:05:46The German army needs it.
01:05:54Take out this coat.
01:06:01That's what is not Russian?
01:06:03Where did you get it?
01:06:04Answer me.
01:06:05Who is this wet nose?
01:06:07Show me your identification card.
01:06:08What?
01:06:09I lost.
01:06:09That's a lie.
01:06:10Every man must have an identification card.
01:06:12What do you want of him?
01:06:14He's just a boy from a neighboring village.
01:06:17So?
01:06:19What happens here?
01:06:21Why are you all met here?
01:06:28Are there more of you?
01:06:36You dare to spit on a German officer.
01:06:38For this I could finish you right away.
01:06:40Now tell me your name and tell it quickly.
01:06:42Tell me your name, you stupid little boy.
01:06:44In my country a hero has no name.
01:06:47Hockertier.
01:06:49A hero.
01:06:51So?
01:06:51And the headquarters will receive our heroes.
01:06:59What will happen?
01:07:27I don't know.
01:07:36I'm sorry.
01:07:38I'm sorry.
01:07:38It's the only one.
01:07:39We beat him.
01:07:39They said they will hurt him.
01:07:41They drive the people to the gala to witness.
01:07:46Truth.
01:07:47What are you going to do?
01:07:48Do?
01:07:52Nothing.
01:07:53You can't mean that.
01:07:54You brought back a message.
01:07:55You brought back an order.
01:07:57Tomorrow the snow will fall.
01:07:58Will it really start tomorrow?
01:07:59I beg you, I implore you. You have done more dangerous things before.
01:08:02This can't be done.
01:08:03Perhaps he saved your life.
01:08:09The trough.
01:08:10You tried to ask him. I can't bear this.
01:08:13Comrade, farewell.
01:08:14What could we lose? Only our lives?
01:08:16Listen up.
01:08:17Everything.
01:08:20Do you think I want to sacrifice this boy who's been like a small brother to me?
01:08:25I forbid you, no matter what happens,
01:08:31to betray with one single word,
01:08:33with one single gesture that you know him.
01:08:36That is a command.
01:08:37Are you able to comply with it?
01:08:41Yes.
01:08:42Then you may go.
01:08:46Let's go.
01:08:47Let's go.
01:08:48Let's go.
01:08:49Let's go.
01:08:49Let's go.
01:08:53Let's go.
01:08:53Let's go.
01:08:54Let's go.
01:08:55Let's go.
01:08:56Let's go.
01:09:14This boy is guilty for having participated in activities against the Reichswehr.
01:09:17While he admits to being a partisan,
01:09:20even after the most intense questioning,
01:09:22he has refused to divulge information needed by the German command.
01:09:27In spite of this, his life can still be saved.
01:09:30Even at this last moment.
01:09:34And so can all of you be spared.
01:09:38If anyone of you will give me information about the guerrilla group to which this boy belongs,
01:09:44is there anyone who wishes to speak to save this boy's life?
01:10:01Young lad,
01:10:02I'll give you one last chance.
01:10:04Tell me your name,
01:10:05the group to which you belong,
01:10:06and where the guerrillas can be found.
01:10:09Name your leader, and give me accurate directions to your hiding place.
01:10:12Otherwise you will hang.
01:10:14You have five seconds in which to answer.
01:10:37I will answer, sir.
01:10:39You cannot hang a nation.
01:10:40Dead to the German invaders.
01:10:42Kill them, burn them, fire them.
01:10:50Mitya.
01:10:55Mitya.
01:10:56Mitya.
01:11:00Mitya, where's Mitya?
01:11:05Tell me what happened to him.
01:11:08He left with you?
01:11:09Why didn't he come back?
01:11:11You tell me.
01:11:13What happened to him?
01:11:22The same thing that's happened to our hundred,
01:11:25thousand and million Russian brothers.
01:11:28But I want you to know that very few of us could have faced his fate.
01:11:34Such a brave self-sacrifice.
01:11:46Come with me.
01:11:47Come with me.
01:11:58Did they really?
01:12:00Meet you.
01:12:01Comrades, a few instructions.
01:12:04Petrov will check to field radio.
01:12:06You Sasha to the far end of the lake to guide in the detachment of Tychenko.
01:12:09You Fyodor to the swamp to wait for Semyon.
01:12:11Well, sir.
01:12:12I mean, Semyon here with the men.
01:12:25Comrades, Commander.
01:12:26Yes.
01:12:28I only want to say that I give my poor life freely into your hands.
01:12:36Oh, my.
01:12:38What a big hero.
01:12:39Well, at least not such a fat one.
01:12:59How could he leave me?
01:13:01Did he say something to you?
01:13:04Yes, he did.
01:13:05He sent you a message.
01:13:07What?
01:13:08Did you see him?
01:13:10Were you with him?
01:13:11Until the last minute.
01:13:15He looked at me and smiled.
01:13:19Smiled?
01:13:20Yes.
01:13:21Smile.
01:13:23So calmly, so beautifully as only he could smile.
01:13:31I don't know whether you would understand my words.
01:13:35He was happy.
01:13:37And in the last minute his eyes have transferred a message.
01:13:41I heard it.
01:13:43The message he has sent to you and all of us is that we shouldn't weep for him.
01:13:48For he has given his life bravely.
01:13:52And you should always remember him the way I have seen him.
01:13:58I saw a big, beautiful, shining medal above his heart.
01:14:04For he is going to be one of our great, great heroes.
01:14:10In every school of our land his picture will be on a wall.
01:14:14And all the teachers will make beautiful speeches about his bravery on this day of every year.
01:14:20And all the children in the benches will look at Mity's picture.
01:14:25And they all will envy him for having given up his life or his country so courageously.
01:14:39I want you to take her away from here.
01:14:41Today, toward the north, the roads are clear.
01:14:44All the women and children in the village will be going that way.
01:14:47But I'm going to stay.
01:14:49My darling.
01:14:51In a short time we're going to be so terribly busy here that the little girl and you two would
01:14:57only be in the way.
01:14:59I have no more secrets from you.
01:15:01The moment we've eagerly awaited for a long time is approaching.
01:15:05You've brought the order to begin it.
01:15:06Your sentence of death, that is what I brought.
01:15:09Tonight, this morning, the whole Russian front will start to go.
01:15:14Tonight, we're going to begin our revenge.
01:15:17For Mitya and Yelena.
01:15:19Until the day you die, that is what you told me.
01:15:21I want you to take her.
01:15:23Because I want to spare the little girl and there's no one else.
01:15:27God bless you.
01:15:30Taking her and having been with us for a little while.
01:15:35And you?
01:15:37There's an old saying.
01:15:39Bullets spare those who are in love.
01:15:42Mother.
01:15:44The radios are checked and functioning.
01:15:46The detachment of Duchenko is arriving.
01:15:48They ask for you.
01:15:49Pack your things and hers.
01:15:51Ain't this taking Argo away with village people?
01:16:04My comrades are the many guerrilla detachments of this section.
01:16:08My reason for having this map here is not that of giving you a geography lesson.
01:16:15I don't know.
01:16:15Nevertheless, I ask you to pay strict attention to it, to make clear the things I'm going to tell you.
01:16:21Here is our hardaway, the place where you now stand.
01:16:25And here, past the valley, is the village of Jasnia Poliana.
01:16:29And here is the city of Tula, with the Nazi position so, and our own position so.
01:16:36It was many weary weeks ago that you received an order from the command in Moscow, not one step further
01:16:42back.
01:16:43But now, the order that we've been waiting for has come.
01:16:47Counterattack.
01:16:49Tula.
01:16:50By order of the head of the divisional staff, I'm informed that early the next morning there will begin an
01:16:55attack designed to roll back the Nazis toward the land they came from.
01:16:59To roll them back from Tula, and in turn to roll them back from Moscow.
01:17:06While our brothers of the Red Army attacked, we too will have our work to do.
01:17:10Here in the village of Jasnia Poliana is based the bulk of the reserve forces of the Nazis.
01:17:15They must not be there when the spearhead of our army's attack comes through from the front lines.
01:17:21It is our privilege to deal with these.
01:17:24To attack these forces, draw them off and retreat before them.
01:17:28Drawing them thus away from the village, through the forest, into the valley, to this very spot where we now
01:17:33stand.
01:17:34I know that it's difficult to ask Russians to retreat.
01:17:38But sometimes in retreat there is victory.
01:17:40And I assure you that such is true in this case.
01:17:44Many times during the day that follows you will hear the order retreat.
01:17:48And your ears will burn just as my throat will gag when I deliver the order.
01:17:52But when I say retreat, I will be thinking attack.
01:17:55And you must think attack.
01:17:57For this time our backward movement carries forward the cause of our country.
01:18:12Comrade commander, two German tanks have appeared.
01:18:14But we are not ready yet.
01:18:16Why don't you go tell it to the Germans, bright boy?
01:18:19Oh, shut up.
01:18:21Good coming, comrade.
01:18:25Good coming.
01:18:51Petrov!
01:18:56Good coming!
01:19:17I'm absolutely devastated.
01:19:18This is the American Sea.
01:19:18Good coming.
01:19:18Without you, the smashed迎er could partly squeeze them through.
01:19:18Against the ultimately left.
01:19:18Just another� fragment.
01:19:24Do you see theinkle sinking?
01:19:25Yes!
01:19:25Moses!
01:19:29His life has stopped.
01:19:41Guerrilla Detachment, Jasnia Apogliana.
01:19:45Message from the military front.
01:19:47Proceed.
01:19:49Leader of the Guerrilla Detachment, Comrade Vladimir.
01:19:54Commendation for having drawn off the German Reserves from Jasnia Apogliana.
01:19:58Our full attack is now commencing.
01:20:01You are instructed that in no event are you to cease engaging the enemy...
01:20:05till our operations here have reached a successful conclusion.
01:20:09The Head of the Staff Division, Comrade General Govorov.
01:20:12Message received and will be complied with.
01:20:15Message received and will be complied with.
01:20:17Instruct Comrade Semyonov to take charge here.
01:20:19You come with me up the hill.
01:20:22Last stop, Semyonov.
01:20:23The bottlenecks Semyonov and Duchenko's people...
01:20:26will cover us until the last moment.
01:20:27If a breakthrough occurs, we must make the enemy come this way.
01:20:30Hey, you, Dimitri.
01:20:31Here, Commander.
01:20:32How are things?
01:20:33Everything in readiness.
01:20:35The gravity fire is so intently...
01:20:36as to make them believe a whole troop is trapped in here.
01:20:39Let them come.
01:20:40Let them send at least 30 German tanks against us.
01:20:43Against three Russian soldiers.
01:20:49Nina.
01:20:50I came back.
01:20:51Nina, Nina.
01:20:52Don't scold me.
01:20:53You're welcome, darling.
01:20:55I was afraid you would be angry.
01:20:56If you decided this, then it must be the most important thing for you.
01:21:00You'll help me.
01:21:04Beginning to break through, Commander.
01:21:17Come on, you classmate.
01:21:19Peter.
01:21:20I'll fix you for that.
01:21:23Get away from that.
01:21:25It's my shot.
01:21:26What do you mean, it's my right?
01:21:28It's mine.
01:21:30It's mine.
01:21:30It's mine.
01:21:35It's mine.
01:21:36It's mine.
01:21:36It's mine.
01:21:36Sashink.
01:21:38I guess it's your shot, Comrade.
01:21:45No, Comrade.
01:21:47No, Comrade.
01:21:48I'll shut it.
01:22:12I'll shut it.
01:22:17I'll shut it.
01:22:21I'll shut it.
01:22:28I'll shut it.
01:22:29I'll shut it.
01:22:31I'll shut it.
01:22:33You're the greatest gift I could have received from life.
01:22:35And you're mine.
01:23:04I don't know what I'm doing.
01:23:06We have forgotten something.
01:23:07What?
01:23:08We have been together working and fighting together.
01:23:11And I wasn't very bad, either as a companion or as a soldier, was I?
01:23:15Then let me be really one of you.
01:23:17And take the oath.
01:23:19I, Mina Ivanova, a citizen of the Soviet Socialist Republic.
01:23:24I, Mina Ivanova, a citizen of the Soviet Socialist Republic.
01:23:29I solemnly swear to be an honest, brave, disciplined and valiant fighter.
01:23:39I swear up to my last breath.
01:23:45I swear up to my last breath.
01:23:48I swear up to my last breath.
01:23:50I swear to the defender, courageously and with wisdom.
01:23:54I'm digniting love, sparing my blood or my life.
01:23:57I swear to the defender, courageously and with wisdom.
01:24:00In my last dignity will I have to pay my blood or my life.
01:24:04The final victory of the enemy is attained.
01:24:07The final victory of the enemy is attained.
01:24:19Without sparing their blood or their lives.
01:24:24Multiply this little group by countless thousands.
01:24:27Multiply the spirit.
01:24:29And this is one good reason the hordes of Hitler fled back.
01:24:33Turning their evil faces toward the setting sun of their defeat.
01:24:37the pain and the clear spirits.
01:24:45To come entry.
01:24:56The final victory of the enemy.
01:25:01The peaceful force to becomeυ
