00:00:47,799 --> 00:00:49,801
A chronicle of facts

3
00:00:50,009 --> 00:00:53,680
that contributed to
the fall of the monarchy

4
00:03:00,098 --> 00:03:06,020
14TH JULY 1789

5
00:03:10,942 --> 00:03:12,485
Present arms!

6
00:03:13,236 --> 00:03:14,612
Forward march!

7
00:03:16,197 --> 00:03:17,448
March!

8
00:03:18,616 --> 00:03:20,076
About turn!

9
00:03:21,369 --> 00:03:22,787
Forward march!

10
00:03:32,463 --> 00:03:35,007
Squad, halt!

11
00:04:31,397 --> 00:04:34,901
I would like to speak to His
Majesty. Who is his gentleman?

12
00:04:35,067 --> 00:04:36,152
Monsieur de Guéméné.

13
00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:38,863
Announce the Duke de la
Rochefoucauld-Liancourt.

14
00:04:52,084 --> 00:04:53,753
Good evening, Guéméné.

15
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,047
Kindly inform His Majesty that I am here.

16
00:04:56,214 --> 00:04:59,383
I must warn you, the hunt was keen today.

17
00:04:59,550 --> 00:05:02,428
His Majesty sleeps like
Hercules after his labors.

18
00:05:02,595 --> 00:05:04,722
Pray make haste, my dear Guéméné.

19
00:05:04,889 --> 00:05:07,058
- Is it serious?
- I believe so.

20
00:05:19,153 --> 00:05:21,155
His Majesty is not asleep. Pray enter.

21
00:05:27,495 --> 00:05:29,372
Good evening, La Rochefoucauld!

22
00:05:33,251 --> 00:05:37,296
I slept, but was aroused
by a pang of hunger.

23
00:05:38,172 --> 00:05:39,382
It is this hunting.

24
00:05:41,092 --> 00:05:44,512
We chased a ten-pointed
stag, very rare now.

25
00:05:44,929 --> 00:05:48,182
Picard, put the small table on the bed.

26
00:05:48,766 --> 00:05:51,769
My good Guéméné, pour me some wine.

27
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,356
My dear Duke, pass me the chicken.

28
00:05:55,523 --> 00:05:58,442
Picard has placed it beyond reach.

29
00:05:59,527 --> 00:06:04,198
He thinks, because I'm
king, I must have long arms!

30
00:06:13,541 --> 00:06:14,834
What is it?

31
00:06:15,001 --> 00:06:17,420
Sire, the Parisians
have taken the Bastille.

32
00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:23,718
So it is a revolt?

33
00:06:24,218 --> 00:06:26,679
No, sire, it is a revolution.

34
00:06:29,098 --> 00:06:33,436
A VILLAGE IN PROVENCE JUNE 1790

35
00:06:53,706 --> 00:06:55,124
I saw you.

36
00:06:57,877 --> 00:07:00,796
Pardon a poor wretch, your honor.

37
00:07:00,963 --> 00:07:03,049
I was wrong to kill your pigeons,

38
00:07:03,257 --> 00:07:06,719
but they were eating the only crop I have.

39
00:07:09,722 --> 00:07:13,476
You, there! You are witnesses.

40
00:07:13,643 --> 00:07:14,685
I didn't see anything.

41
00:07:14,852 --> 00:07:17,271
Nobody asked your opinion. Obey!

42
00:07:17,438 --> 00:07:18,564
Take him away.

43
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,697
Case of Anatole Roux, accused of pillage.

44
00:07:27,448 --> 00:07:29,200
You are a habitual offender!

45
00:07:29,867 --> 00:07:35,081
Last year, my men
caught you setting snares.

46
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,835
Luckily for you, on land
owned by Monsieur Giraud,

47
00:07:40,002 --> 00:07:43,047
mayor of this village, here present.

48
00:07:43,798 --> 00:07:46,592
His misplaced generosity
saved you from the gallows.

49
00:07:47,009 --> 00:07:50,888
Count, a man is master of his own domain.

50
00:07:51,055 --> 00:07:53,057
This is a flagrant case.

51
00:07:53,224 --> 00:07:56,435
The pigeon is mine
and there are witnesses.

52
00:07:56,602 --> 00:07:58,104
I didn't see anything.

53
00:08:00,648 --> 00:08:05,194
It is my heritage, as
squire, to mete out justice.

54
00:08:05,361 --> 00:08:07,446
A thankless privilege,

55
00:08:08,155 --> 00:08:10,908
but it is my duty to
exercise it unflinchingly.

56
00:08:11,075 --> 00:08:13,744
Before all else, we serve His Majesty.

57
00:08:13,911 --> 00:08:16,372
Your case is beyond my jurisdiction.

58
00:08:16,539 --> 00:08:18,916
I will refer it to the magistrates.

59
00:08:19,083 --> 00:08:23,045
Come now, Count, you
know what they're like.

60
00:08:23,212 --> 00:08:25,172
They've no more heart than a rock,

61
00:08:25,339 --> 00:08:28,384
and no more sense than... an old pot!

62
00:08:28,551 --> 00:08:30,886
With them, it's the gallows.

63
00:08:31,053 --> 00:08:33,764
The gallows for a pigeon.
Do you think that just?

64
00:08:33,931 --> 00:08:36,600
The pigeon is immaterial.

65
00:08:36,767 --> 00:08:39,353
It symbolizes the order I must defend.

66
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,232
It seems a pretty skimpy symbol to me.

67
00:08:44,358 --> 00:08:46,819
There's nothing of it when it's plucked.

68
00:08:47,236 --> 00:08:50,322
Once they kill our pigeons,
they'll burn our castles.

69
00:08:50,489 --> 00:08:55,619
So you are really
defending your feudal rights

70
00:08:55,786 --> 00:08:58,122
rather than the laws of His Majesty?

71
00:08:58,289 --> 00:08:59,707
Both.

72
00:09:00,291 --> 00:09:02,960
Destroy the feudal order
which assures your rights,

73
00:09:03,377 --> 00:09:05,838
then you destroy our social structure,

74
00:09:06,005 --> 00:09:08,674
based on respect for
divine and natural order.

75
00:09:10,092 --> 00:09:11,969
Of which you, too, are a beneficiary.

76
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,183
A very small beneficiary.
I know your tune.

77
00:09:17,349 --> 00:09:22,063
If your privileges disappear,
then mine will follow suit.

78
00:09:22,772 --> 00:09:27,860
To keep my little comforts,
I must abet your abuses.

79
00:09:28,027 --> 00:09:33,115
You, the great lord, own
most of the land here.

80
00:09:33,282 --> 00:09:39,038
I'm an old warrant officer.
You think we're interdependent?

81
00:09:39,205 --> 00:09:42,792
I would rather lose everything I possess!

82
00:11:04,498 --> 00:11:05,624
I surrender.

83
00:11:06,709 --> 00:11:08,210
I'll go quietly.

84
00:11:08,377 --> 00:11:11,172
What do you mean? Are you mad?

85
00:11:14,758 --> 00:11:16,719
- Is that a hearth?
- Yes.

86
00:11:17,386 --> 00:11:18,762
It's all wrong.

87
00:11:20,181 --> 00:11:22,474
Don't try to tell me how to do it.

88
00:11:22,892 --> 00:11:25,728
I'm a mason, a good one.

89
00:11:25,895 --> 00:11:28,439
I know my trade, ask anyone.

90
00:11:28,606 --> 00:11:31,108
What's the matter with this hearth?

91
00:11:31,275 --> 00:11:33,402
The wind's in the west.

92
00:11:33,569 --> 00:11:37,031
You're no longer in town, you
have to think about the wind.

93
00:11:38,449 --> 00:11:40,951
Here's a good one.

94
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,163
Who's that?

95
00:11:44,872 --> 00:11:46,248
I don't know.

96
00:11:46,415 --> 00:11:48,626
- Who are you?
- What about you?

97
00:11:48,792 --> 00:11:50,085
We're from Marseilles.

98
00:11:50,252 --> 00:11:53,923
- Fleeing the king's justice?
- Not the king's, the aristocrats'.

99
00:11:54,089 --> 00:11:57,760
- Same as me.
- We're not criminals.

100
00:11:57,927 --> 00:12:00,262
- Me neither.
- We're patriots.

101
00:12:00,429 --> 00:12:02,431
That's enough to put us in jail.

102
00:12:02,598 --> 00:12:06,185
I killed a pigeon. That means the gallows.

103
00:12:12,483 --> 00:12:14,151
You know this area?

104
00:12:14,568 --> 00:12:17,613
I was born in Cadolive,
just over the hill.

105
00:12:17,780 --> 00:12:22,076
I know the priest there.
He brings food when he can.

106
00:12:23,744 --> 00:12:26,455
- Have you a leather belt?
- I have.

107
00:12:26,622 --> 00:12:28,165
It's a present from my mother.

108
00:12:29,917 --> 00:12:31,043
There.

109
00:12:32,419 --> 00:12:36,423
It'll make a good sling.
We'll kill plenty of blackbirds.

110
00:12:36,924 --> 00:12:39,301
- Got any string?
- What for?

111
00:12:39,468 --> 00:12:42,471
For snaring rabbits. There's plenty about.

112
00:12:43,430 --> 00:12:47,309
- You seem to be quite a hunter.
- I know.

113
00:12:47,476 --> 00:12:49,520
That's what the count says, too.

114
00:12:49,687 --> 00:12:52,273
- What's your name?
- Jean-Joseph Bomier.

115
00:12:52,439 --> 00:12:56,568
I'm Anatole Roux, but
everyone calls me "Chamois."

116
00:12:56,735 --> 00:13:00,155
- And you?
- I'm Honoré Arnaud.

117
00:13:00,322 --> 00:13:02,449
Toll clerk from Marseilles.

118
00:13:02,866 --> 00:13:06,328
- Staying with us?
- Willingly!

119
00:13:06,495 --> 00:13:08,205
But let's remake that hearth.

120
00:13:11,375 --> 00:13:13,377
Still, it's a good life here.

121
00:13:13,794 --> 00:13:17,923
You want a blackbird? Just use the sling.

122
00:13:18,090 --> 00:13:23,178
You want a hare? Just set a snare.

123
00:13:23,345 --> 00:13:27,266
Understand the ways of
Nature. That's the secret of it.

124
00:13:27,433 --> 00:13:30,436
But that's just what makes it so exciting.

125
00:13:30,602 --> 00:13:35,316
The simple life. Why
don't we stay here forever?

126
00:13:35,733 --> 00:13:38,610
Don't you want to see your mother again?

127
00:13:38,777 --> 00:13:41,030
Of course I want to.

128
00:13:41,196 --> 00:13:46,368
But think, I spent my
life cooped in a house.

129
00:13:46,535 --> 00:13:50,539
Like living in a cupboard.
I'm staying here.

130
00:13:50,706 --> 00:13:51,915
And women?

131
00:13:52,082 --> 00:13:54,626
I'm old, I don't care. But you're young.

132
00:13:54,793 --> 00:13:57,212
We could bring a beauty here.

133
00:13:57,379 --> 00:13:59,423
We could easily feed her.

134
00:13:59,590 --> 00:14:02,634
And she could help with the cooking.

135
00:14:02,801 --> 00:14:08,640
It wouldn't be long before
you quarreled over her.

136
00:14:09,725 --> 00:14:11,602
If we had everything:

137
00:14:11,769 --> 00:14:14,730
bread, salt, brandy, women, tobacco,

138
00:14:14,897 --> 00:14:17,483
then this place would become a town.

139
00:14:17,649 --> 00:14:20,277
Better to go back to
Marseilles, clear it out.

140
00:14:20,444 --> 00:14:22,363
Get rid of the aristocrats,

141
00:14:22,529 --> 00:14:25,240
and profit from our parents' efforts.

142
00:14:26,075 --> 00:14:27,576
Friends!

143
00:14:27,743 --> 00:14:28,702
Here's Paget!

144
00:14:29,953 --> 00:14:31,580
Is that how you keep watch?

145
00:14:31,747 --> 00:14:35,000
Why bother? No one ever comes here.

146
00:14:35,167 --> 00:14:36,627
What have you brought?

147
00:14:36,794 --> 00:14:41,590
All a poor priest can afford.
Bread, cheese, tobacco.

148
00:14:41,757 --> 00:14:43,384
It's wonderful bread.

149
00:14:43,550 --> 00:14:46,261
Thank God you're Arnaud's friend.

150
00:14:46,428 --> 00:14:48,931
That's not why he helps us.

151
00:14:50,933 --> 00:14:53,477
I've had enough of starving, too.

152
00:14:55,229 --> 00:14:56,480
Our plight...

153
00:14:57,606 --> 00:15:01,610
would touch even the stones
beneath our tattered shoes.

154
00:15:01,777 --> 00:15:03,695
Turn your rabbit, it's scorching.

155
00:15:03,862 --> 00:15:06,949
Who's cooking it, you or me?

156
00:15:07,116 --> 00:15:09,868
You can't talk to him,
now he thinks he's a cook.

157
00:15:10,411 --> 00:15:13,831
For a year, my vicarage
has been windowless.

158
00:15:15,082 --> 00:15:17,501
But the bishop lives in a palace,

159
00:15:17,918 --> 00:15:19,503
keeps mistresses,

160
00:15:19,670 --> 00:15:23,340
leads a debauched life that
shames a servant of Christ.

161
00:15:23,757 --> 00:15:27,136
He's just a lad of 22.

162
00:15:27,302 --> 00:15:29,596
Noble lads aren't like ordinary ones.

163
00:15:30,305 --> 00:15:32,558
Us folk, when we father a child,

164
00:15:32,724 --> 00:15:36,645
we pass on our features or color of hair.

165
00:15:36,812 --> 00:15:40,190
But a nobleman, without further effort,

166
00:15:40,357 --> 00:15:42,693
passes on every imaginable talent,

167
00:15:42,860 --> 00:15:45,487
political, military, ecclesiastic.

168
00:15:45,654 --> 00:15:49,575
Without learning anything,
the offspring knows everything.

169
00:15:49,741 --> 00:15:52,911
We priests are like sergeants in the army.

170
00:15:53,328 --> 00:15:57,708
Like sergeants, we have
no hope of becoming officers.

171
00:15:58,208 --> 00:16:01,503
I'm glad I'm a widower
and my children are dead.

172
00:16:01,670 --> 00:16:06,049
Ordinary folk should
refuse to have more children.

173
00:16:06,842 --> 00:16:08,677
Isn't your rabbit cooked now?

174
00:16:10,471 --> 00:16:11,889
I think you're right.

175
00:16:23,692 --> 00:16:25,027
Paget!

176
00:16:32,993 --> 00:16:36,163
- Seen the smoke?
- This one?

177
00:16:36,580 --> 00:16:40,292
That's the Château de
Bigeor burning over there.

178
00:16:41,335 --> 00:16:45,756
The other place belongs
to my bishop's brother.

179
00:16:47,007 --> 00:16:48,383
Children,

180
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,178
the time is ripe for you to return.

181
00:16:52,012 --> 00:16:53,388
We need you.

182
00:16:55,682 --> 00:16:59,478
The aristos must be feeling pretty sick.

183
00:17:00,854 --> 00:17:03,982
I wouldn't like it if my house was burnt.

184
00:17:04,399 --> 00:17:07,069
Would you like ten years in the gallows?

185
00:17:07,236 --> 00:17:10,113
The nobles have taught us bad habits.

186
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,574
They made us cruel in their image.

187
00:17:13,116 --> 00:17:16,662
They're reaping. Reaping what they sowed.

188
00:17:16,828 --> 00:17:19,081
They are like invisible witnesses.

189
00:17:19,248 --> 00:17:24,503
It's not their fault. It's their
God-given nature to do evil.

190
00:17:24,670 --> 00:17:28,507
But now we're ready to get rid of them.

191
00:17:29,633 --> 00:17:31,927
I'm sorry now my children are dead.

192
00:17:32,553 --> 00:17:36,265
Because you young
ones will build a new life.

193
00:17:42,437 --> 00:17:43,772
Good-bye, my friends.

194
00:17:44,898 --> 00:17:46,775
Whatever you do, stand fast.

195
00:17:47,568 --> 00:17:50,612
- Good-bye, Chamois.
- Good-bye, my friend.

196
00:17:52,072 --> 00:17:56,493
Good-bye, Chamois! I won't
forget what you taught me.

197
00:17:56,660 --> 00:17:59,913
Give me that. You'll get guns in town.

198
00:18:22,519 --> 00:18:27,024
OCTOBER 1790

199
00:18:50,464 --> 00:18:52,299
Arnaud, of the Young Citizens.

200
00:18:53,467 --> 00:18:55,010
Got your card, Bomier?

201
00:18:55,177 --> 00:18:57,346
What for? Don't you know me?

202
00:18:57,512 --> 00:18:59,097
I shouldn't let you in.

203
00:18:59,264 --> 00:19:03,268
What's all this bureaucracy
got to do with revolution?

204
00:19:03,435 --> 00:19:06,313
It's all your writers and book-learners

205
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,775
inventing paperwork to
make yourselves important.

206
00:19:09,941 --> 00:19:13,695
You can't make order with
disorder. Come on, let's go.

207
00:19:13,862 --> 00:19:17,866
Respectable people are
attacked on the streets!

208
00:19:18,033 --> 00:19:21,870
The Mayor of Marseilles does nothing!

209
00:19:22,037 --> 00:19:23,789
Yes, we want order in our streets!

210
00:19:23,955 --> 00:19:26,583
The reactionaries are dictating the law!

211
00:19:26,750 --> 00:19:29,419
The rich should pay taxes!

212
00:19:32,089 --> 00:19:34,383
We dockers of Marseilles,

213
00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:37,469
disciplined workers and
opponents of violence,

214
00:19:37,636 --> 00:19:42,224
stopped the looting of tax
collector Rebuffet's property.

215
00:19:42,391 --> 00:19:46,395
We stamp out crimes against public order

216
00:19:46,561 --> 00:19:50,357
committed by reactionaries
in defiance of the people.

217
00:19:52,275 --> 00:19:53,944
He's right!

218
00:19:54,111 --> 00:19:57,531
Therefore we offer you
our wholehearted support.

219
00:19:59,700 --> 00:20:02,452
I now call upon Citizen Moissant.

220
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:06,581
Citizen Moissant will
sum up the situation.

221
00:20:06,748 --> 00:20:08,291
To sum it up:

222
00:20:08,709 --> 00:20:11,753
just as we witness an admirable scene,

223
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,173
king and nation united in the public weal,

224
00:20:15,340 --> 00:20:18,719
a handful of troublemakers
compromise the Revolution.

225
00:20:24,141 --> 00:20:28,395
In their business houses,
they work to force up prices.

226
00:20:28,562 --> 00:20:30,230
In government,

227
00:20:30,397 --> 00:20:33,734
they plot against nationally
important measures.

228
00:20:33,900 --> 00:20:35,777
And they are in the army.

229
00:20:35,944 --> 00:20:40,449
Here in Marseilles,
we have the three forts

230
00:20:40,615 --> 00:20:43,660
held by officers hostile
to king and people.

231
00:20:45,912 --> 00:20:47,789
Threatening the town with cannons,

232
00:20:47,956 --> 00:20:51,543
those troublemakers
insult and harry all patriots!

233
00:20:56,798 --> 00:20:59,009
By agreement with the new municipality,

234
00:20:59,176 --> 00:21:00,719
we citizens of Marseilles,

235
00:21:00,886 --> 00:21:04,723
members of the civic
guard and patriotic groups,

236
00:21:04,890 --> 00:21:06,767
have decided to seize these forts

237
00:21:06,933 --> 00:21:09,936
and place them under
our own elected authorities!

238
00:21:24,493 --> 00:21:27,704
Books are always
describing magnificent dawns.

239
00:21:27,871 --> 00:21:30,791
Because writers are still in bed then.

240
00:21:30,957 --> 00:21:36,004
The majority of dawns are
cold, gray, with miserable colors.

241
00:21:36,171 --> 00:21:38,173
I'm a painter, so I know.

242
00:21:38,340 --> 00:21:40,509
Do you paint portraits?

243
00:21:41,301 --> 00:21:43,261
I paint the heroes of antiquity,

244
00:21:43,428 --> 00:21:47,432
Romans, Spartans and such patriots.

245
00:21:47,599 --> 00:21:51,186
I've given up the aristocrats'
shepherds and shepherdesses.

246
00:21:51,353 --> 00:21:53,480
Javel, Ardisson...

247
00:21:54,523 --> 00:21:55,899
you can start now.

248
00:22:05,700 --> 00:22:07,702
- How are you doing, Diogenes?
- Fine!

249
00:22:07,869 --> 00:22:09,830
- Good.
- Let's go.

250
00:22:29,432 --> 00:22:31,935
You there, open up!

251
00:22:32,102 --> 00:22:34,813
- What do you want?
- We've got some wine!

252
00:22:35,230 --> 00:22:38,567
- Who sent it?
- Ravel.

253
00:22:38,733 --> 00:22:42,779
It's a present from the municipality.

254
00:22:42,946 --> 00:22:46,366
Go round by the main gate.

255
00:23:27,991 --> 00:23:30,577
- Unload your barrel here.
- Not further on?

256
00:23:30,744 --> 00:23:32,203
Mind your own business.

257
00:23:33,997 --> 00:23:35,415
Gently now.

258
00:23:39,294 --> 00:23:41,421
Why so careful?

259
00:23:41,588 --> 00:23:44,716
Can't you see it's an old barrel?

260
00:23:44,883 --> 00:23:47,177
Anyway, it doesn't do to shake up wine.

261
00:23:47,594 --> 00:23:50,639
There's something fishy about you two.

262
00:23:50,805 --> 00:23:52,599
Get going!

263
00:23:54,601 --> 00:23:56,227
You old misery.

264
00:23:56,394 --> 00:23:59,314
You might offer us a drink.

265
00:23:59,481 --> 00:24:02,317
I've got my orders. Go on!

266
00:24:02,484 --> 00:24:04,444
Shake hands at least, comrade.

267
00:24:05,528 --> 00:24:06,821
What are you doing?

268
00:24:06,988 --> 00:24:09,407
The nation has just seized the fort!

269
00:24:12,869 --> 00:24:15,121
Come along now! Hand over your rifles!

270
00:24:18,750 --> 00:24:22,170
That's the spirit! Take it, Javel.

271
00:24:22,337 --> 00:24:24,464
He doesn't know what to do with it.

272
00:24:47,445 --> 00:24:50,156
- Ardisson, guard the door.
- Don't worry.

273
00:24:50,699 --> 00:24:52,951
You two, here. Give him your gun.

274
00:24:53,118 --> 00:24:56,037
You watch the prisoners.
Be careful, they're fierce.

275
00:24:56,204 --> 00:24:59,124
Quiet now, this is the guard house.

276
00:25:13,930 --> 00:25:15,265
On your feet!

277
00:25:15,432 --> 00:25:17,350
Help! We're being attacked by brigands!

278
00:25:17,517 --> 00:25:20,061
That's enough! Enough!

279
00:25:20,645 --> 00:25:23,898
Don't worry, you won't come to any harm.

280
00:25:32,699 --> 00:25:35,535
Alert!

281
00:25:36,202 --> 00:25:37,954
Fix bayonets!

282
00:25:38,955 --> 00:25:40,790
Save useless bloodshed.

283
00:25:41,207 --> 00:25:43,752
You had better surrender, sergeant.

284
00:25:44,377 --> 00:25:46,588
- How many are you?
- At least 2000.

285
00:25:46,755 --> 00:25:49,299
In that case, lay down your arms, men!

286
00:25:50,216 --> 00:25:54,679
Arnaud, I'm going to the
cells to look for Cuculière.

287
00:25:54,846 --> 00:25:55,930
Yes, go on.

288
00:25:56,389 --> 00:25:58,141
- Here, Cornil!
- It's you!

289
00:25:58,308 --> 00:26:01,603
What a pleasure to see you!

290
00:26:01,770 --> 00:26:03,730
I didn't know you were in the army.

291
00:26:03,897 --> 00:26:07,942
We both come from the same place.

292
00:26:11,321 --> 00:26:13,364
- What are you doing?
- Can't you see?

293
00:26:13,531 --> 00:26:14,616
I'm keeping guard.

294
00:26:16,451 --> 00:26:17,786
Who told you to?

295
00:26:17,952 --> 00:26:20,789
I'm using my own initiative.

296
00:26:20,955 --> 00:26:22,165
Have you a leader?

297
00:26:22,791 --> 00:26:26,086
His name's Arnaud. He's inside.

298
00:26:40,308 --> 00:26:41,851
Who's that?

299
00:26:42,018 --> 00:26:44,312
The Marquis de Saint-Laurent.

300
00:26:44,479 --> 00:26:47,649
Commandant of the Marseilles
forts. He's a good fellow.

301
00:26:47,816 --> 00:26:48,900
- Here.
- Thanks.

302
00:26:49,609 --> 00:26:51,236
How goes it, Marquis?

303
00:26:54,114 --> 00:26:57,575
I've seen some strange
things in my military career,

304
00:26:57,742 --> 00:27:01,371
but this... this is a new one.

305
00:27:01,788 --> 00:27:03,706
- How many prisoners?
- Twenty-two.

306
00:27:03,873 --> 00:27:05,750
- How many political prisoners?
- All.

307
00:27:05,917 --> 00:27:07,585
So much for the lettres de cachet.

308
00:27:08,461 --> 00:27:10,213
You are Monsieur Arnaud?

309
00:27:10,380 --> 00:27:11,965
Citizen Arnaud.

310
00:27:12,549 --> 00:27:14,926
I am Commandant of the forts of Marseilles

311
00:27:15,093 --> 00:27:17,762
and thus responsible to His Majesty.

312
00:27:17,929 --> 00:27:23,017
I must ask you to surrender
your arms and retire.

313
00:27:44,998 --> 00:27:46,916
What's the matter?

314
00:27:47,083 --> 00:27:48,293
It's my eyes.

315
00:27:48,710 --> 00:27:51,045
All the prisoners suffer the same.

316
00:27:51,504 --> 00:27:53,756
The doctor says he can't help.

317
00:27:54,174 --> 00:27:56,759
It's the damp walls that cause it.

318
00:27:57,177 --> 00:27:59,429
What are you doing here?

319
00:27:59,596 --> 00:28:02,807
- We've captured the fort.
- Well, well!

320
00:28:03,516 --> 00:28:08,605
That's really good
news. Yes, it's good news.

321
00:28:09,022 --> 00:28:10,857
What about Arnaud?

322
00:28:11,274 --> 00:28:12,984
Don't you worry about him.

323
00:28:13,151 --> 00:28:15,486
He's all right. Come on, let's go.

324
00:28:20,158 --> 00:28:22,160
Long live the nation!

325
00:28:30,376 --> 00:28:34,088
You justify what I
consider acts of rebellion

326
00:28:34,631 --> 00:28:36,507
with words I don't understand.

327
00:28:36,925 --> 00:28:41,721
The nation, citizens... what is all this?

328
00:28:42,138 --> 00:28:45,433
The nation is the fraternal
union of all Frenchmen.

329
00:28:45,975 --> 00:28:48,186
It's you, me.

330
00:28:48,937 --> 00:28:50,605
The people passing by.

331
00:28:55,193 --> 00:28:56,986
That fisherman and his boat.

332
00:28:58,613 --> 00:29:01,282
Citizens are the people
who comprise the nation.

333
00:29:01,449 --> 00:29:03,618
I have nothing to do with these people.

334
00:29:03,785 --> 00:29:06,079
It's a new religion I cannot acknowledge.

335
00:29:06,246 --> 00:29:08,706
I serve the king, that is all.

336
00:29:08,873 --> 00:29:12,210
Or what you imagine
to be serving the king.

337
00:29:21,511 --> 00:29:25,306
When a king is prisoner
of his unruly subjects,

338
00:29:25,473 --> 00:29:27,558
no longer able to rule freely,

339
00:29:27,725 --> 00:29:31,104
his loyal servants can only "imagine."

340
00:29:33,064 --> 00:29:34,357
Permit me a question:

341
00:29:34,524 --> 00:29:36,651
what are you going to do with me?

342
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,029
Wish you a happy journey to the frontier.

343
00:29:40,697 --> 00:29:42,490
A pleasant stay...

344
00:29:43,574 --> 00:29:45,118
in Germany.

345
00:29:45,952 --> 00:29:47,662
And hope we never meet again.

346
00:29:57,130 --> 00:30:01,884
GUESTS ARE REQUESTED
TO PAY A WEEK IN ADVANCE

347
00:30:02,051 --> 00:30:05,638
<i>O, how sweet</i>

348
00:30:05,805 --> 00:30:10,935
<i>Is my remembrance</i>

349
00:30:11,352 --> 00:30:14,480
<i>Of the place</i>

350
00:30:14,647 --> 00:30:19,902
<i>Where I was born</i>

351
00:30:20,403 --> 00:30:25,199
<i>How sweet they were, my sister</i>

352
00:30:25,366 --> 00:30:29,912
<i>Those days in far-off France</i>

353
00:30:30,705 --> 00:30:34,334
<i>May my homeland</i>

354
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:39,130
<i>Ever be my love</i>

355
00:30:39,297 --> 00:30:42,550
<i>Forever</i>

356
00:30:48,014 --> 00:30:53,936
<i>May my homeland ever be my love</i>

357
00:30:54,103 --> 00:30:57,857
<i>Forever</i>

358
00:30:58,316 --> 00:31:02,195
<i>O, who will restore me</i>

359
00:31:02,362 --> 00:31:06,407
<i>To my Hélène?</i>

360
00:31:06,574 --> 00:31:10,161
<i>Who will restore the mountain?</i>

361
00:31:10,328 --> 00:31:14,791
<i>Who will restore the oak?</i>

362
00:31:14,957 --> 00:31:18,002
<i>Their memory</i>

363
00:31:18,169 --> 00:31:23,883
<i>Pains me every day</i>

364
00:31:48,616 --> 00:31:50,993
Madame, that song is deeply moving.

365
00:31:51,786 --> 00:31:53,621
It reminds me of our Provence.

366
00:31:53,788 --> 00:31:57,500
Forgive me. It always
fills my eyes with tears.

367
00:31:58,126 --> 00:32:01,421
Madame de Saint-Laurent,
the time for regrets is past.

368
00:32:01,587 --> 00:32:03,881
- You will see your France again.
- When?

369
00:32:04,507 --> 00:32:06,050
In three weeks, Monsieur.

370
00:32:06,801 --> 00:32:07,844
At last.

371
00:32:13,516 --> 00:32:17,395
Monsieur de Boihue, will
you rejoin your Company

372
00:32:17,562 --> 00:32:20,064
or be transferred to the General Staff?

373
00:32:20,690 --> 00:32:23,401
I have requested to serve as a private.

374
00:32:24,068 --> 00:32:28,990
Only one thing troubles me:
my insolently yawning shoes.

375
00:32:29,157 --> 00:32:32,994
No matter. To serve His
Majesty, one may go barefoot.

376
00:32:33,453 --> 00:32:37,039
My dear Boihue, your
shoes will hold out till Paris.

377
00:32:37,832 --> 00:32:40,251
The expedition will be a mere stroll.

378
00:32:40,418 --> 00:32:44,547
I can see it now. His
Highness the Count d'Artois,

379
00:32:44,714 --> 00:32:48,384
seated nonchalantly in his carriage.

380
00:32:48,551 --> 00:32:53,222
Before him the doors will
open, the populace will kneel.

381
00:32:53,639 --> 00:32:55,349
The people, delivered at last,

382
00:32:55,516 --> 00:32:59,604
acclaim the white flag
and the fleur-de-lys.

383
00:32:59,770 --> 00:33:02,648
If there is fighting, the
revolutionaries will collapse.

384
00:33:02,815 --> 00:33:05,985
One does not make war with
weavers, cobblers and layers.

385
00:33:06,402 --> 00:33:08,404
You forget one thing, my dear friends.

386
00:33:08,571 --> 00:33:10,281
What, my dear Saint-Laurent?

387
00:33:10,448 --> 00:33:14,160
The French have not always
been beaten. They will resist.

388
00:33:14,327 --> 00:33:15,703
Really!

389
00:33:16,370 --> 00:33:19,582
At Rosbach, during the Seven Years War,

390
00:33:19,749 --> 00:33:22,043
who resisted the Prussians?

391
00:33:22,919 --> 00:33:26,047
You know the jest about Marshal Soubise.

392
00:33:26,589 --> 00:33:28,925
Holding up a lantern, Soubise wondered:

393
00:33:29,091 --> 00:33:32,303
"Where the devil is my army?

394
00:33:32,470 --> 00:33:36,974
I saw it yesterday. Is it
captured, or have I mislaid it?"

395
00:33:38,601 --> 00:33:41,979
This time, we have the Prussians with us.

396
00:33:42,104 --> 00:33:44,649
We are commanded by the Duke of Brunswick.

397
00:33:44,815 --> 00:33:47,777
The great victor of that Seven Year War!

398
00:33:48,361 --> 00:33:50,655
I just simply adore the Prussians!

399
00:33:50,821 --> 00:33:53,199
Since the blessed day I
learned they were with us,

400
00:33:53,366 --> 00:33:55,576
I sing their praises!

401
00:33:56,577 --> 00:34:00,957
I had the joy and honor of
meeting the King of Prussia.

402
00:34:01,374 --> 00:34:03,251
But perhaps I have told you already?

403
00:34:03,417 --> 00:34:04,460
Yes.

404
00:34:04,627 --> 00:34:06,504
Now there is a man!

405
00:34:06,671 --> 00:34:09,465
A true Achilles, an Agamemnon!

406
00:34:09,632 --> 00:34:11,676
He weighs at least 200 pounds.

407
00:34:11,842 --> 00:34:16,138
Seeing him, even Jacobin
bigots can't say all men are equal.

408
00:34:16,806 --> 00:34:18,516
Long live Prussia and the Prussians!

409
00:34:18,683 --> 00:34:21,644
Madame, I cannot share your enthusiasm.

410
00:34:22,061 --> 00:34:26,023
After noisily proclaiming our
championship of Catholicism,

411
00:34:26,190 --> 00:34:29,986
it seems slightly indecent to
soil ourselves with these heretics.

412
00:34:30,152 --> 00:34:32,530
It is the marriage of carp and rabbit.

413
00:34:32,697 --> 00:34:36,117
At least, let us not
be ungracious rabbits.

414
00:34:36,284 --> 00:34:38,828
Let us render thanks to the generous carp

415
00:34:38,995 --> 00:34:41,330
who saves us from starvation.

416
00:34:41,497 --> 00:34:43,082
Of course.

417
00:34:43,249 --> 00:34:46,168
Of course, this hotel is not Versailles.

418
00:34:47,295 --> 00:34:51,173
But without heretics, we
would be sleeping in the street.

419
00:34:51,340 --> 00:34:55,344
Above all, thanks to them
we shall return to France.

420
00:34:55,511 --> 00:34:57,471
That is precisely what irks me.

421
00:34:57,638 --> 00:35:01,267
We arrived two years ago.
Everything was beautiful and pure,

422
00:35:01,434 --> 00:35:04,437
without question of
soliciting aid from strangers.

423
00:35:04,604 --> 00:35:07,148
We sought to uphold ideas

424
00:35:07,315 --> 00:35:09,900
we thought essential to
our country's greatness.

425
00:35:10,067 --> 00:35:13,154
We sought to uphold
them by our own efforts.

426
00:35:13,321 --> 00:35:15,823
Dirty linen should be washed in private.

427
00:35:15,990 --> 00:35:18,242
Now you invite your neighbors to assist.

428
00:35:18,409 --> 00:35:20,870
They may well make off with a few items.

429
00:35:21,037 --> 00:35:26,375
A drowning man can well
yield his watch to his rescuer.

430
00:35:26,542 --> 00:35:30,630
Your scruples would be
more fitting in commoners,

431
00:35:30,796 --> 00:35:35,134
peasants or artisans
from some place or other.

432
00:35:35,301 --> 00:35:38,095
Their views are necessarily limited.

433
00:35:38,262 --> 00:35:41,390
Their greatest journey
is to the next village

434
00:35:41,557 --> 00:35:45,561
and they're bound to marry
their neighbor's daughter.

435
00:35:45,728 --> 00:35:49,315
Their children will never
know other horizons.

436
00:35:49,482 --> 00:35:53,653
One can see why these
people gargle about "the nation."

437
00:35:53,819 --> 00:35:57,323
Shall I tell you what
it is, their "nation"?

438
00:35:57,490 --> 00:36:01,202
The rabble united
against people of quality.

439
00:36:01,369 --> 00:36:04,455
I know another definition of "nation."

440
00:36:04,872 --> 00:36:06,582
It was given to me at Marseilles,

441
00:36:06,749 --> 00:36:09,919
by the man who deprived me of my command.

442
00:36:10,336 --> 00:36:11,879
His name was Arnaud.

443
00:36:12,046 --> 00:36:15,633
He had the style of a
gentleman, yet he was a patriot.

444
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:20,388
If there are many like him,
we'll not have an easy task.

445
00:36:20,554 --> 00:36:22,890
Monsieur de Porquerolles,
Monsieur de Saint-Laurent,

446
00:36:23,057 --> 00:36:26,310
pray cease your historical
discussions at once.

447
00:36:26,477 --> 00:36:30,147
We require you to settle a
dispute of great importance.

448
00:36:30,314 --> 00:36:31,774
Let's go.

449
00:36:32,733 --> 00:36:35,945
At Versailles, in the
third figure of the gavotte,

450
00:36:36,112 --> 00:36:38,614
does one look right
in turning right, or left?

451
00:36:38,781 --> 00:36:40,908
But it's very simple. Here.

452
00:36:45,538 --> 00:36:48,416
How incredible. I have forgotten.

453
00:36:49,208 --> 00:36:50,584
Do you remember?

454
00:36:50,751 --> 00:36:52,628
Forgive me, but I am no expert.

455
00:36:52,795 --> 00:36:55,798
Ask Boihue, that pillar of the Trianon.

456
00:36:55,965 --> 00:36:57,133
Good idea.

457
00:36:58,300 --> 00:36:59,719
It is very simple.

458
00:36:59,885 --> 00:37:02,805
Keep your eyes fixed on your partner

459
00:37:02,972 --> 00:37:05,766
while looking over your shoulder.

460
00:37:33,461 --> 00:37:37,757
APRIL 1792

461
00:37:44,597 --> 00:37:45,973
Who goes there?

462
00:37:46,682 --> 00:37:49,310
Sorry, citizen. I thought
it was the Austrians.

463
00:37:49,477 --> 00:37:51,228
They aren't far away.

464
00:37:52,313 --> 00:37:53,522
Where are you from?

465
00:37:53,689 --> 00:37:55,900
Grandes Mottes, on the Mons road.

466
00:37:56,066 --> 00:37:58,486
Some snipers fired on the Austrians,

467
00:37:58,652 --> 00:38:01,197
so they burned our
village, arrested the men.

468
00:38:01,363 --> 00:38:03,532
They took my husband and hanged him.

469
00:38:04,116 --> 00:38:06,410
Is it true there are Frenchmen with them?

470
00:38:06,577 --> 00:38:09,872
Yes, they're aristocrats.
The army of Coblentz.

471
00:38:10,039 --> 00:38:11,207
It's shameful.

472
00:38:11,373 --> 00:38:14,752
Why don't you and your
child rest here by the fire?

473
00:38:14,919 --> 00:38:19,131
Aren't you ashamed to rest
while they hang and burn?

474
00:38:19,298 --> 00:38:23,052
I'd like to know what our
army's doing to protect us.

475
00:38:23,219 --> 00:38:26,931
They say the Austrians laugh
at your disappearing acts.

476
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,442
- Did you hear?
- Yes.

477
00:38:38,859 --> 00:38:40,110
She's right.

478
00:38:43,823 --> 00:38:45,407
Is your crow cooked?

479
00:38:47,660 --> 00:38:50,538
It's as tough as an old boot.

480
00:38:51,247 --> 00:38:52,414
It's an old crow.

481
00:38:52,581 --> 00:38:56,210
Still, it's food. No use
relying on La Fayette's rations.

482
00:38:56,377 --> 00:38:59,880
Damn aristocrats. They betray
the country and let us starve.

483
00:39:00,047 --> 00:39:01,590
What about Rochambeau?

484
00:39:02,007 --> 00:39:04,885
Do you know him?

485
00:39:06,178 --> 00:39:09,306
The general? I haven't had the honor.

486
00:39:09,932 --> 00:39:12,685
But I know Marat. I spoke
to him in Rouen once.

487
00:39:12,852 --> 00:39:15,729
When we Parisians arrived at Tournai,

488
00:39:15,896 --> 00:39:18,941
that Rochambeau lined us up on the square.

489
00:39:19,108 --> 00:39:23,320
After marching all day,
we weren't exactly pretty.

490
00:39:23,487 --> 00:39:26,532
And we hadn't shaved since leaving Paris.

491
00:39:26,699 --> 00:39:29,368
We all had a beard like the Wandering Jew.

492
00:39:29,535 --> 00:39:31,662
Well, this Rochambeau

493
00:39:31,829 --> 00:39:36,083
came out wiping his
mouth with a serviette.

494
00:39:36,250 --> 00:39:38,294
He'd been stuffing his guts.

495
00:39:38,460 --> 00:39:42,756
He looked us over slowly, taking his time,

496
00:39:42,923 --> 00:39:45,926
just as if we had full bellies, too.

497
00:39:46,093 --> 00:39:50,139
Then he said, with a
sneer I'll never forget:

498
00:39:50,556 --> 00:39:53,809
"What am I supposed to do
with you? You're too small!"

499
00:39:53,976 --> 00:39:55,102
Small?

500
00:39:56,395 --> 00:39:58,522
- How tall are you?
- Nearly five feet.

501
00:39:58,939 --> 00:40:01,108
- A fine man.
- Finest in my trade.

502
00:40:01,275 --> 00:40:03,193
- What is it?
- I'm a house painter

503
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,447
in Les Batignolles, near Paris.

504
00:40:07,114 --> 00:40:07,948
And you?

505
00:40:08,115 --> 00:40:10,618
I'm a cooper from Darnetal, near Rouen.

506
00:40:11,201 --> 00:40:14,455
Our fault, in the eyes of these gentlemen,

507
00:40:14,622 --> 00:40:17,166
is that we're volunteers
in Republican blue.

508
00:40:17,333 --> 00:40:19,627
We trust our regimental committees,

509
00:40:19,793 --> 00:40:24,506
the Assembly, Robespierre,
Marat. We're patriots!

510
00:40:24,673 --> 00:40:28,093
Nearly all the officers are aristocrats.

511
00:40:28,260 --> 00:40:32,806
To me, anyone with a
handle to his name is a traitor.

512
00:40:32,973 --> 00:40:37,728
It wouldn't be so bad if they
openly supported the enemy.

513
00:40:38,228 --> 00:40:40,272
But while they scorn the nation,

514
00:40:40,439 --> 00:40:44,360
they don't scorn the money
the Assembly stupidly pays them.

515
00:40:44,526 --> 00:40:49,281
"I cash in and I betray!"
That's their motto.

516
00:40:51,951 --> 00:40:53,327
What's that?

517
00:40:53,494 --> 00:40:56,205
Hussars, heading to the east.

518
00:40:56,372 --> 00:40:58,916
- Surrendering to the Austrians!
- Really?

519
00:40:59,083 --> 00:41:00,793
It wouldn't be the first time.

520
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,088
Remember the Berchany regiment?

521
00:41:04,254 --> 00:41:07,049
That was only last Tuesday.

522
00:41:07,216 --> 00:41:09,969
How much are the Austrians offering

523
00:41:10,135 --> 00:41:14,181
per man and horse, eh, Judas?

524
00:41:14,348 --> 00:41:18,185
Vermin! I'll teach you
to watch your tongue.

525
00:41:18,352 --> 00:41:20,437
Clear off, or I'll fire!

526
00:41:20,604 --> 00:41:24,942
The more horses we kill the
fewer you'll sell the Austrians.

527
00:41:25,109 --> 00:41:26,777
We can't waste time here!

528
00:41:36,495 --> 00:41:38,205
Well, my old friend,

529
00:41:38,664 --> 00:41:41,083
if things don't change soon,

530
00:41:41,500 --> 00:41:44,586
what with the Austrians and Paris...

531
00:41:45,879 --> 00:41:48,007
there'll be only the two of us left.

532
00:41:51,176 --> 00:41:54,263
Citizens, my name is Louise Vauclair.

533
00:41:54,430 --> 00:41:58,892
I sell fish by the harbor
and I pay my taxes.

534
00:41:59,059 --> 00:42:02,146
I have come to tell
you that on April 28th,

535
00:42:02,312 --> 00:42:05,024
near a town in the north called Mons,

536
00:42:05,441 --> 00:42:07,776
my lover, Antoine Givodan...

537
00:42:07,943 --> 00:42:09,570
My old friend Toni!

538
00:42:09,737 --> 00:42:11,780
Shut up! Carry on, citizen.

539
00:42:11,947 --> 00:42:13,073
Sit down.

540
00:42:13,866 --> 00:42:18,412
My lover, Antoine Givodan,
a volunteer of 1791,

541
00:42:18,579 --> 00:42:21,373
sergeant in the 49th Infantry Regiment,

542
00:42:21,957 --> 00:42:23,876
was killed by the Austrians.

543
00:42:26,545 --> 00:42:28,922
Citizen Antoine Besombe,

544
00:42:29,089 --> 00:42:31,175
trooper in the 6th Regiment of Dragoons,

545
00:42:31,341 --> 00:42:35,095
brought me the news when
he returned home wounded.

546
00:42:35,262 --> 00:42:38,724
He told me my lover was
killed fleeing from the enemy.

547
00:42:39,808 --> 00:42:43,479
Citizens, some of you
here may have known him.

548
00:42:43,896 --> 00:42:48,067
If so, you know Antoine
Givodan feared nothing.

549
00:42:49,068 --> 00:42:52,446
And if he fled, it was
because he was betrayed!

550
00:42:52,613 --> 00:42:54,948
- I knew Antoine Givodan!
- Me too.

551
00:42:55,115 --> 00:42:57,785
- Be quiet, my friend.
- He was a generous soul.

552
00:42:57,951 --> 00:43:01,663
I still owe him two crowns
he lent me at Santons Fair.

553
00:43:06,251 --> 00:43:11,799
Are we going to send more men to death

554
00:43:11,965 --> 00:43:15,511
if their worst enemies are
in the rear, not at the front?

555
00:43:15,677 --> 00:43:19,056
Well said! Down with
the Austrian Committee!

556
00:43:19,681 --> 00:43:20,641
Enough!

557
00:43:20,808 --> 00:43:25,145
I'm not talking about aristos,
who seek their country's defeat,

558
00:43:25,312 --> 00:43:28,440
because defeat would
restore their privileges.

559
00:43:29,775 --> 00:43:32,861
I'm talking about the king and the queen.

560
00:43:33,028 --> 00:43:35,030
I'm talking about the Assembly!

561
00:43:37,991 --> 00:43:39,993
His Majesty, Monsieur Veto

562
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,830
betrays because he is a man of straw.

563
00:43:44,623 --> 00:43:47,709
Madame Veto betrays
because she is Austrian.

564
00:43:49,128 --> 00:43:51,630
Because she is arrogant!

565
00:43:52,714 --> 00:43:54,842
Because she hates France.

566
00:43:56,468 --> 00:44:00,389
She believes the armies of
her Austrian Emperor nephew

567
00:44:00,556 --> 00:44:03,016
will restore her to absolute power.

568
00:44:05,227 --> 00:44:08,522
She forgets that a nation
cannot be led like a husband.

569
00:44:09,815 --> 00:44:12,526
And that we women are here.

570
00:44:16,155 --> 00:44:19,324
The Assembly betrays because it is afraid.

571
00:44:20,492 --> 00:44:23,745
These gentlemen are content
with revolution if it profits them.

572
00:44:24,413 --> 00:44:28,375
But if it profits the people
they rein in and cry anarchy!

573
00:44:33,714 --> 00:44:35,215
Just a word!

574
00:44:35,382 --> 00:44:39,595
Is it a woman's place to say
such things in the tribune?

575
00:44:39,761 --> 00:44:41,638
Yes!

576
00:44:41,805 --> 00:44:45,434
I say a woman's place is in the house!

577
00:44:45,601 --> 00:44:48,228
Your place is in the gallows!

578
00:44:49,313 --> 00:44:53,483
Throw that man out! Show him the door!

579
00:44:58,030 --> 00:45:00,908
There's talk of sending
a battalion of Marseillais.

580
00:45:01,491 --> 00:45:04,745
First to Paris, then to the frontier.

581
00:45:04,912 --> 00:45:09,333
But we've heard so much talk
that we've become mistrustful.

582
00:45:10,083 --> 00:45:12,544
What we want is certainty.

583
00:45:13,045 --> 00:45:18,759
An assurance that our men,
before facing Austrian guns,

584
00:45:18,926 --> 00:45:21,303
will have dealt with
those criminal leaders...

585
00:45:24,264 --> 00:45:29,811
who place self-interest
before that of their country!

586
00:45:32,231 --> 00:45:37,361
Unless we have this
assurance, we will bar the way.

587
00:45:37,527 --> 00:45:41,698
Our volunteers will have
to stop or trample over us.

588
00:45:42,491 --> 00:45:46,328
I believe they will stop.

589
00:45:49,331 --> 00:45:52,292
Down with anarchists!
Down with Robespierre!

590
00:45:52,459 --> 00:45:53,669
Long live Robespierre!

591
00:45:53,835 --> 00:45:57,714
Your Robespierre has
neither eloquence nor dignity.

592
00:45:57,881 --> 00:45:59,841
In short, he's a Republican!

593
00:46:01,802 --> 00:46:05,430
No eloquence? No dignity? Now listen!

594
00:46:22,030 --> 00:46:25,909
Citizens, are you free men or slaves?

595
00:46:27,119 --> 00:46:31,915
Show respect for this Club
of Friends of the Constitution.

596
00:46:32,457 --> 00:46:36,253
This free tribune, where
Jacobin tradition demands

597
00:46:36,420 --> 00:46:38,839
that each have a right to his say.

598
00:46:40,215 --> 00:46:42,759
I call on Citizen Moissant to speak.

599
00:46:50,976 --> 00:46:53,520
I will tell you why the city of Marseilles

600
00:46:53,687 --> 00:46:57,190
has decided to send a
voluntary battalion to the north.

601
00:46:57,983 --> 00:47:02,612
Like the battalions of our
Federates throughout France,

602
00:47:02,779 --> 00:47:06,908
it will represent the nation's
will before king and Assembly.

603
00:47:11,747 --> 00:47:16,960
Each volunteer will be
sworn to go first to Paris,

604
00:47:17,127 --> 00:47:22,049
to make contact with
patriot groups and authorities,

605
00:47:22,215 --> 00:47:26,595
and stay until patriot
ministers have been recalled.

606
00:47:32,934 --> 00:47:35,479
And measures taken
against refractory priests,

607
00:47:35,645 --> 00:47:39,691
against agents of foreign
powers, speculators...

608
00:47:42,778 --> 00:47:44,905
and other enemies of the Revolution.

609
00:47:45,947 --> 00:47:51,578
Only after assuring these
nationally vital measures,

610
00:47:51,745 --> 00:47:55,290
will our federates march
to fight the foreign enemy.

611
00:47:55,457 --> 00:47:57,876
Foreign enemies to the gallows!

612
00:48:08,512 --> 00:48:11,098
To forestall our adversaries,

613
00:48:11,264 --> 00:48:14,601
who will not fail to paint
us in the blackest colors...

614
00:48:17,229 --> 00:48:20,690
the city has decided that
admission to the battalion

615
00:48:20,857 --> 00:48:23,735
will be granted to completely
honorable citizens only.

616
00:48:26,613 --> 00:48:30,617
Volunteers must prove
they have no criminal record.

617
00:48:30,784 --> 00:48:35,330
Their families must be well
provided for in their absence.

618
00:48:36,456 --> 00:48:39,000
They must swear they have no debts.

619
00:48:39,167 --> 00:48:43,547
The expedition will be no
excuse to shrink obligations.

620
00:48:45,590 --> 00:48:48,009
They must have served in the army,

621
00:48:48,176 --> 00:48:50,971
the National Guard or a civil formation.

622
00:48:56,017 --> 00:48:59,604
We now open the first enlistment register.

623
00:48:59,771 --> 00:49:04,818
Heroes of the South, saviors
of the North, answer the call!

624
00:49:06,027 --> 00:49:10,866
<i>Come on! String up the aristocrats!</i>

625
00:49:11,032 --> 00:49:15,412
<i>Come on! We'll get the aristos!</i>

626
00:49:33,805 --> 00:49:36,516
What are you waiting for, Bomier?

627
00:49:36,683 --> 00:49:38,518
Aren't you coming?

628
00:49:39,352 --> 00:49:41,605
So you're not going?

629
00:49:42,856 --> 00:49:44,900
You're letting us go alone to Paris?

630
00:49:45,066 --> 00:49:47,402
There'll be 500 of you.

631
00:49:47,569 --> 00:49:48,945
Is it your mother?

632
00:49:49,112 --> 00:49:51,573
- That business with Marie?
- Maybe.

633
00:49:52,407 --> 00:49:53,825
I don't understand.

634
00:49:53,992 --> 00:49:58,872
An old comrade, a liberator of the town.

635
00:49:59,039 --> 00:50:01,458
You were all set to leave,

636
00:50:01,625 --> 00:50:04,669
dreaming of sacrifices for your country.

637
00:50:05,128 --> 00:50:07,506
Yet now the time has come...

638
00:50:08,507 --> 00:50:10,008
you desert us.

639
00:50:10,175 --> 00:50:15,138
You can't talk about the king's
dependence on the queen.

640
00:50:15,305 --> 00:50:18,725
You sacrifice honor and
dignity for a woman, too.

641
00:50:19,726 --> 00:50:20,977
So long, Bomier.

642
00:50:21,394 --> 00:50:23,522
It's as though my brother had died.

643
00:50:31,905 --> 00:50:33,823
HERE WE ARE PROUD TO SPEAK FRENCH

644
00:50:33,990 --> 00:50:36,076
The Mouté boy is going, Aunt.

645
00:50:36,243 --> 00:50:37,619
Going where?

646
00:50:37,786 --> 00:50:40,747
To Paris. All the young men are going.

647
00:50:40,914 --> 00:50:42,123
Yes, I know.

648
00:50:43,750 --> 00:50:44,960
Aren't you eating?

649
00:50:45,794 --> 00:50:47,796
The tomatoes are done your favorite way.

650
00:50:47,963 --> 00:50:50,090
I'm not hungry. What about you?

651
00:50:50,257 --> 00:50:53,426
I'll eat after you. You're
the man of the house.

652
00:50:53,593 --> 00:50:58,807
What would your father say if
he saw a woman at the table?

653
00:50:58,974 --> 00:51:02,352
Those old customs are
out of date. Please sit down.

654
00:51:02,519 --> 00:51:05,355
I'm too old to change my ways.

655
00:51:07,357 --> 00:51:09,234
Why aren't you eating?

656
00:51:10,318 --> 00:51:12,862
Afraid to tell me you're going to Paris?

657
00:51:13,029 --> 00:51:14,990
No, I'm not going.

658
00:51:16,992 --> 00:51:19,244
I'm glad you're being sensible.

659
00:51:19,411 --> 00:51:21,788
Where does all this agitation get you?

660
00:51:21,955 --> 00:51:26,918
Struggling against richer,
stronger, better armed people.

661
00:51:27,085 --> 00:51:29,713
You've bitten off more than you can chew.

662
00:51:31,089 --> 00:51:35,176
Believe me, there'll
always be rich and poor.

663
00:51:35,343 --> 00:51:38,221
Your friends can't change that.

664
00:51:38,930 --> 00:51:42,183
Why don't you eat?

665
00:51:42,601 --> 00:51:45,020
- Is something else the matter?
- Yes.

666
00:51:45,186 --> 00:51:47,188
It's because of that Marie.

667
00:51:50,358 --> 00:51:53,862
- What's wrong with Clémence?
- Are you blind?

668
00:51:55,864 --> 00:51:58,867
Trust men to go searching
for what's under their nose.

669
00:51:59,993 --> 00:52:03,246
What's that Marie done? Run off again?

670
00:52:03,413 --> 00:52:05,707
Yes, but I don't care.

671
00:52:05,874 --> 00:52:07,292
Gone off with your money?

672
00:52:07,459 --> 00:52:11,463
No, I gave it to her to buy a shop.

673
00:52:12,505 --> 00:52:14,007
Now I've got debts.

674
00:52:14,758 --> 00:52:18,178
And the battalion won't take debtors.

675
00:52:21,848 --> 00:52:23,516
All my friends are going,

676
00:52:23,683 --> 00:52:27,062
Arnaud, Cuculière, Garnier,

677
00:52:27,228 --> 00:52:30,982
Moissant, Ardisson, the pick of the town.

678
00:52:31,399 --> 00:52:35,320
They're like brothers to
me and I'm staying behind.

679
00:52:35,487 --> 00:52:38,531
They'll be in the thick of things in Paris

680
00:52:38,698 --> 00:52:41,743
because things are going to happen there.

681
00:52:42,243 --> 00:52:46,247
And I've got to stay and
eat my heart out here.

682
00:52:46,414 --> 00:52:48,541
Looking at the same old roofs.

683
00:52:48,708 --> 00:52:53,380
The same streets, the
same little bit of sea.

684
00:52:53,546 --> 00:52:55,924
I've looked at them so
long, I don't notice them.

685
00:52:56,925 --> 00:52:59,052
Well, listen, it's very simple.

686
00:52:59,219 --> 00:53:01,304
Just write to your uncle at Cassis.

687
00:53:01,471 --> 00:53:05,558
Tell him to sell the vineyard for us.

688
00:53:06,267 --> 00:53:08,937
He's got money, he might buy it himself.

689
00:53:09,979 --> 00:53:13,358
You're head of the family,
you can do as you like.

690
00:53:16,027 --> 00:53:17,237
Thank you, Mom!

691
00:53:18,279 --> 00:53:19,948
I'll volunteer at once.

692
00:53:20,115 --> 00:53:23,368
I must be quick, they're only taking 500.

693
00:53:40,468 --> 00:53:42,887
Please, shut the window.

694
00:54:10,915 --> 00:54:13,042
Do you agree to the
conditions of engagement?

695
00:54:13,877 --> 00:54:16,296
Do you swear you have no debts?

696
00:54:18,506 --> 00:54:20,133
Give me the quill!

697
00:54:22,677 --> 00:54:24,387
I've come to enlist.

698
00:54:31,811 --> 00:54:33,271
Quiet!

699
00:54:34,063 --> 00:54:35,690
- Your certificates?
- Here.

700
00:54:36,274 --> 00:54:38,735
Why haven't you enlisted already?

701
00:54:38,902 --> 00:54:40,403
I was held up.

702
00:54:40,570 --> 00:54:42,697
Me, too. I was at Avignon.

703
00:54:43,448 --> 00:54:47,827
They commissioned a
painting of Brutus killing Caesar.

704
00:54:47,994 --> 00:54:49,245
Forward.

705
00:54:51,956 --> 00:54:55,710
With 1,500 citizens in Roman costume,

706
00:54:55,877 --> 00:54:58,338
all clearly recognizable.

707
00:54:58,505 --> 00:55:02,342
We're just in time.
They've got 450 already.

708
00:55:02,509 --> 00:55:06,513
If they were less fussy,
they could have 100,000.

709
00:55:06,679 --> 00:55:07,764
Forward.

710
00:55:13,853 --> 00:55:15,647
- What's that?
- I don't know.

711
00:55:15,814 --> 00:55:18,358
A banquet in honor of
the Montpellier delegation.

712
00:55:18,525 --> 00:55:21,402
They say their battalion
is ready to march.

713
00:55:21,569 --> 00:55:23,446
Pity we can't go with them.

714
00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:27,200
I hear that near Tarascon,

715
00:55:27,367 --> 00:55:31,287
there's an army of 50,000
aristos led by priests.

716
00:55:31,454 --> 00:55:34,207
- Priests?
- Yes, refractory priests.

717
00:55:34,374 --> 00:55:37,252
- Think there are really 50,000?
- At least.

718
00:55:37,418 --> 00:55:38,837
Move on.

719
00:55:40,505 --> 00:55:43,132
Don't close the door. Let's listen.

720
00:55:43,299 --> 00:55:47,136
<i>The day of glory has arrived</i>

721
00:55:47,303 --> 00:55:48,388
Who's singing?

722
00:55:48,555 --> 00:55:49,973
Mireur, of Montpellier.

723
00:55:50,139 --> 00:55:52,141
- What's the song?
- I don't know.

724
00:55:53,184 --> 00:55:54,686
Come on, move.

725
00:55:57,188 --> 00:56:01,234
<i>Bloody standard is raised</i>

726
00:56:01,401 --> 00:56:05,697
<i>Listen to the sound in the fields</i>

727
00:56:07,615 --> 00:56:09,826
- Farewell, Bomier.
- Farewell, Javel.

728
00:56:09,993 --> 00:56:12,495
- Next.
- Jean-Joseph Bomier.

729
00:56:12,996 --> 00:56:15,123
- Certificates?
- Here they are.

730
00:56:16,583 --> 00:56:20,587
Can you swear your family is
well-provided, without debts?

731
00:56:20,753 --> 00:56:22,297
I swear it on the nation!

732
00:56:23,172 --> 00:56:27,969
- Arnaud! Bomier signed up!
- Cuculière! I'm glad to see you.

733
00:56:29,470 --> 00:56:31,347
I was sure you'd come.

734
00:56:31,514 --> 00:56:35,059
Your signature, citizen.
What are you waiting for?

735
00:56:38,771 --> 00:56:43,985
<i>Water our furrows</i>

736
00:56:53,453 --> 00:56:57,415
Mireur's song wasn't bad
but it wasn't all that good.

737
00:56:57,582 --> 00:56:59,167
Go to the right!

738
00:56:59,334 --> 00:57:01,502
What does it mean:

739
00:57:02,170 --> 00:57:05,298
"To arms, citizens, form battalions"?

740
00:57:05,465 --> 00:57:09,218
They make it difficult for
citizens to form battalions,

741
00:57:09,385 --> 00:57:11,721
if they are poor or in debt.

742
00:57:11,888 --> 00:57:14,140
You've got it all wrong.

743
00:57:14,307 --> 00:57:18,561
Well, I don't know.
It's a funny revolution.

744
00:57:18,728 --> 00:57:21,272
Only citizens who pay taxes

745
00:57:21,439 --> 00:57:23,650
can serve their country.

746
00:57:23,816 --> 00:57:27,695
Give the revolution
time, it's in its infancy.

747
00:57:27,862 --> 00:57:30,949
The rich started it, but
the poor will finish it.

748
00:57:31,115 --> 00:57:32,533
But when?

749
00:57:32,700 --> 00:57:35,536
I don't know. We might not live to see it.

750
00:57:35,995 --> 00:57:38,289
Where does Mireur's song come from?

751
00:57:38,706 --> 00:57:41,542
He heard a workers
choir sing it in Montpellier.

752
00:57:42,293 --> 00:57:46,005
They say a Jewish pedlar
heard it in Strasbourg.

753
00:57:46,506 --> 00:57:48,383
The Rhine Army War Song.

754
00:57:48,549 --> 00:57:51,970
Who made it up? The
pedlar or the Rhine soldiers?

755
00:57:52,971 --> 00:57:57,684
A sapper officer called
Des Isles, or De l'Isle.

756
00:57:57,850 --> 00:58:00,311
- Where's he from?
- I don't know.

757
00:58:00,478 --> 00:58:02,689
Not from the south.

758
00:58:03,106 --> 00:58:05,692
His song smells of the north.

759
00:58:06,359 --> 00:58:10,363
There's something
brash about it I don't like.

760
00:58:10,530 --> 00:58:12,198
What do you like, then?

761
00:58:12,365 --> 00:58:13,950
I'm no musician,

762
00:58:14,117 --> 00:58:17,829
but I think a song should
follow the rules of harmony.

763
00:58:17,996 --> 00:58:20,915
That's aristocrat stuff,
your rules of harmony.

764
00:58:21,416 --> 00:58:25,086
Well, that song bowled me over.

765
00:58:26,212 --> 00:58:29,799
It's like... an echo of my own thoughts.

766
00:58:29,966 --> 00:58:32,051
I don't know what you see in it.

767
00:58:32,218 --> 00:58:36,055
It's a craze. Everyone
will forget it in two weeks.

768
00:58:37,682 --> 00:58:41,477
<i>To arms, citizens</i>

769
00:58:41,644 --> 00:58:45,398
<i>Form your battalions</i>

770
00:58:45,565 --> 00:58:49,777
<i>March, march</i>

771
00:58:49,944 --> 00:58:53,448
<i>Let impure blood</i>

772
00:58:53,614 --> 00:58:57,869
<i>Water our furrows</i>

773
00:59:18,222 --> 00:59:22,769
<i>Drive on sacred patriotism</i>

774
00:59:22,935 --> 00:59:27,482
<i>Support our avenging arms</i>

775
00:59:27,648 --> 00:59:32,111
<i>Liberty, cherished liberty</i>

776
00:59:32,278 --> 00:59:35,948
<i>Join the struggle with your defenders</i>

777
00:59:36,115 --> 00:59:40,286
<i>Fight with your defenders</i>

778
00:59:40,453 --> 00:59:44,707
<i>Under our flags let victory</i>

779
00:59:44,874 --> 00:59:48,836
<i>Hurry to your manly tone</i>

780
00:59:49,003 --> 00:59:52,340
<i>So that in death your enemies</i>

781
00:59:52,507 --> 00:59:57,470
<i>See your triumph and our glory!</i>

782
01:00:06,979 --> 01:00:08,564
You're singing?

783
01:00:08,731 --> 01:00:11,109
I'm just singing because everyone else is!

784
01:00:12,485 --> 01:00:14,278
Fall in!

785
01:00:17,698 --> 01:00:21,202
Fall in! Attention!

786
01:00:37,969 --> 01:00:39,137
So long, Rosette.

787
01:00:41,264 --> 01:00:43,391
I'll plant it along the way!

788
01:01:46,162 --> 01:01:47,914
- Do you understand?
- Yes.

789
01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:51,626
All right, let's try it. Two, three.

790
01:01:51,792 --> 01:01:55,171
<i>This band of slaves...</i>

791
01:01:55,338 --> 01:01:56,589
This horde!

792
01:01:56,756 --> 01:02:00,927
Band, horde, I don't see any difference.

793
01:02:01,093 --> 01:02:04,096
Careful now. One, two, three.

794
01:02:04,263 --> 01:02:08,434
<i>This horde of slaves</i>

795
01:02:08,601 --> 01:02:12,146
<i>Will conjugate the tyrant</i>

796
01:02:12,563 --> 01:02:14,106
Subjugate, damn it!

797
01:02:14,273 --> 01:02:16,317
Subjugate, conjugate...

798
01:02:16,484 --> 01:02:20,905
It's full of unpronounceable
words. I give up!

799
01:02:21,822 --> 01:02:24,825
Commandant, I am the Dean of this town.

800
01:02:24,992 --> 01:02:28,663
I shall pray for the
success of your enterprise.

801
01:02:28,829 --> 01:02:31,916
You see the priest speaking to Moissant?

802
01:02:32,667 --> 01:02:34,961
The vanguard of the army of reaction.

803
01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:39,799
His poisonous tongue is
worse than the siren's song.

804
01:02:40,216 --> 01:02:44,220
Javel, you're a hopeless pessimist.

805
01:02:45,012 --> 01:02:48,683
A man isn't reactionary
because he wears a cassock.

806
01:02:49,225 --> 01:02:52,478
Don't forget how priests
have helped the Revolution.

807
01:03:23,843 --> 01:03:25,845
Loading is executed in 12 movements.

808
01:03:26,012 --> 01:03:29,390
Cool, calm loading makes the best soldier.

809
01:03:29,557 --> 01:03:33,185
Hurried movements will
result in spilled powder.

810
01:03:33,352 --> 01:03:38,065
One: hold the weapon exactly like this.

811
01:03:38,232 --> 01:03:41,277
Right hand holding the small of the butt.

812
01:03:41,444 --> 01:03:43,529
Two: open the pan.

813
01:03:43,696 --> 01:03:45,573
Three: take the cartridge.

814
01:03:45,740 --> 01:03:47,908
Four: tear open the cartridge.

815
01:03:48,075 --> 01:03:51,871
Five: prime just enough
powder to fill the pan.

816
01:03:52,038 --> 01:03:54,373
Remember, an effective
shot depends on this.

817
01:03:54,540 --> 01:03:57,877
Spilled powder doesn't
help to fire the bullet.

818
01:03:58,044 --> 01:04:01,422
Nip cartridge paper
between thumb and forefinger.

819
01:04:01,589 --> 01:04:03,883
Six: close the pan.

820
01:04:04,050 --> 01:04:06,177
Seven: order arms on the left.

821
01:04:06,594 --> 01:04:08,804
Eight: cartridge in the barrel.

822
01:04:09,221 --> 01:04:13,142
Nine: withdraw the
ramrod, avoid bending it.

823
01:04:13,309 --> 01:04:17,021
Ten: ram the charge firmly home.

824
01:04:17,396 --> 01:04:19,940
Eleven: replace the ramrod.

825
01:04:20,358 --> 01:04:23,444
Twelve: shoulder arms.

826
01:04:25,237 --> 01:04:30,076
A pair of rommy boots,
packed out with straw,

827
01:04:30,242 --> 01:04:32,828
and your feet will get
to Paris fresh as roses.

828
01:04:33,537 --> 01:04:35,122
Paper is better than straw.

829
01:04:35,289 --> 01:04:38,793
If only newspaper were cheaper.

830
01:04:38,959 --> 01:04:43,130
That's a lot of rubbish.
Nice soft tallow is best.

831
01:04:43,297 --> 01:04:46,175
Rub it between your toes,

832
01:04:46,342 --> 01:04:49,136
and your feet will take wing.

833
01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:57,269
I've found some kindling
wood like we use in Marseilles.

834
01:04:57,436 --> 01:05:01,774
We had one revolutionary only, my nephew.

835
01:05:02,191 --> 01:05:06,404
He had to go off secretly to Paris.

836
01:05:06,570 --> 01:05:08,739
Will you give him two messages?

837
01:05:08,906 --> 01:05:11,200
Where will I find him?

838
01:05:11,367 --> 01:05:15,121
In Paris, of course. He's Jules Besson.

839
01:05:15,287 --> 01:05:18,874
You can't miss him. He's
fair-headed, with freckles.

840
01:05:19,041 --> 01:05:22,002
All right, what are the messages?

841
01:05:22,461 --> 01:05:25,589
I want you to give him 20 francs.

842
01:05:26,006 --> 01:05:28,134
When you've dealt with Monsieur Veto,

843
01:05:28,300 --> 01:05:32,972
I want him to eat well
before tackling the Austrians.

844
01:05:33,139 --> 01:05:37,143
All right, I promise. And the other?

845
01:05:37,309 --> 01:05:40,980
Teach him that song of
the Marseillais you sing.

846
01:05:41,897 --> 01:05:45,192
The Rhine Army Song?
Do you like it that much?

847
01:05:45,359 --> 01:05:48,654
We'll remember it as the
song of the Marseillais.

848
01:05:48,821 --> 01:05:51,031
I'll teach him it, I promise.

849
01:05:51,198 --> 01:05:56,203
I like best the couplet a
schoolmaster wrote in our honor:

850
01:05:56,954 --> 01:06:00,082
"We'll replace our
parents on the battlefield."

851
01:06:00,249 --> 01:06:02,168
Arnaud, do you want some fried pork?

852
01:06:02,334 --> 01:06:07,006
You should have seen all
the kids declaiming his verses.

853
01:06:07,173 --> 01:06:10,176
In front of the temple
of Augustus and Livia.

854
01:06:10,342 --> 01:06:11,927
Give me some pig.

855
01:06:12,094 --> 01:06:13,971
There, my lord.

856
01:06:14,388 --> 01:06:16,515
My friends, it was wonderful.

857
01:06:16,682 --> 01:06:19,518
I'll do a picture of
it, I've got the title:

858
01:06:19,685 --> 01:06:23,647
"France of tomorrow confronting
the ruins of Ancient Rome."

859
01:06:23,814 --> 01:06:25,191
Why are we waiting here?

860
01:06:25,357 --> 01:06:27,193
They say a cannon fell in a ditch.

861
01:06:27,359 --> 01:06:28,986
A cannon in a ditch?

862
01:06:29,653 --> 01:06:32,698
A likely story. They're
just trying to cheer us up.

863
01:06:32,865 --> 01:06:34,325
What do you think?

864
01:06:34,909 --> 01:06:38,287
I think we're facing the priestly army.

865
01:06:39,997 --> 01:06:42,124
We're sitting happily here,

866
01:06:42,291 --> 01:06:46,587
and suddenly, they'll
launch a surprise attack!

867
01:06:46,754 --> 01:06:50,049
A cannon in a ditch, that's a big joke.

868
01:06:50,216 --> 01:06:52,051
Or else it's a big ditch.

869
01:06:52,218 --> 01:06:53,677
An aristocratic ditch.

870
01:06:54,094 --> 01:06:55,346
Truer than you think.

871
01:06:55,846 --> 01:07:00,601
They don't maintain the
roads in this royalist district.

872
01:07:00,768 --> 01:07:04,939
They pretend it's impossible
since forced labor was ended.

873
01:07:05,105 --> 01:07:06,482
It's all part of their usual tactic.

874
01:07:06,649 --> 01:07:11,487
Pretending revolutionary
decrees disrupt public life.

875
01:07:12,238 --> 01:07:15,908
Arnaud, you've torn your
trousers. I'll mend them.

876
01:07:16,075 --> 01:07:18,285
If we have to move, I'll be a sansculotte.

877
01:07:18,452 --> 01:07:20,287
And I'll do a painting of you!

878
01:07:20,704 --> 01:07:22,540
And we'll never be in the painting!

879
01:07:24,166 --> 01:07:26,627
- Let it roll!
- Sergeant!

880
01:07:29,421 --> 01:07:31,799
Massugue will lead the vanguard.

881
01:07:31,966 --> 01:07:33,092
Yes, sir.

882
01:07:33,259 --> 01:07:36,303
The wheels are damaged
but the gun's all right.

883
01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:39,181
If we look after it,
it will look after us.

884
01:08:12,756 --> 01:08:16,302
What will they say to our
Marseillais song in Paris?

885
01:08:16,468 --> 01:08:20,556
Moissant's idea that we should
sing it could be dangerous.

886
01:08:20,723 --> 01:08:23,809
Nonsense. Remember what I've always said:

887
01:08:23,976 --> 01:08:26,687
this song will unite all the Frenchmen.

888
01:08:27,104 --> 01:08:29,815
It will be like a new Federation.

889
01:08:29,982 --> 01:08:32,860
When the Parisians hear
those magnificent words,

890
01:08:33,027 --> 01:08:37,531
they'll join in and
sing with the rest of us.

891
01:08:37,948 --> 01:08:41,410
The frightened queen
goes back to her Danube...

892
01:08:41,577 --> 01:08:43,329
To the Croats.

893
01:08:43,871 --> 01:08:45,831
Yes, to the Croats.

894
01:08:45,998 --> 01:08:50,377
The king withdraws his
veto, recalls patriot ministers,

895
01:08:50,544 --> 01:08:55,549
and in two weeks, we'll be
eating sauerkraut in Vienna,

896
01:08:55,716 --> 01:08:57,217
capital of Austria!

897
01:08:57,384 --> 01:09:01,555
Croats eat nothing but candles, ignoramus!

898
01:09:01,722 --> 01:09:03,265
Listen, Bomier,

899
01:09:03,682 --> 01:09:08,562
didn't you say that song
was nothing but a craze?

900
01:09:08,979 --> 01:09:12,691
I said that? When? Where?

901
01:09:12,858 --> 01:09:18,072
The last time we went
fishing, Monsieur Bomier.

902
01:09:18,989 --> 01:09:21,617
Yes, Monsieur Arnaud,

903
01:09:21,784 --> 01:09:23,410
I remember quite well.

904
01:09:23,577 --> 01:09:28,123
I said it was like the
echo of my own thoughts.

905
01:09:29,375 --> 01:09:33,379
<i>Heave-ho, shipmates, hoist the mainsail</i>

906
01:09:33,545 --> 01:09:37,257
<i>Heave-ho, everyone lend a hand</i>

907
01:09:37,424 --> 01:09:40,094
<i>Heave and heave away</i>

908
01:09:40,260 --> 01:09:44,056
<i>Or else, you'll get an empty plate</i>

909
01:09:44,223 --> 01:09:46,934
<i>They've sailed together for seven years</i>

910
01:09:47,101 --> 01:09:50,688
<i>Without recognizing each other</i>

911
01:09:50,854 --> 01:09:53,732
<i>They've sailed together for seven years</i>

912
01:09:53,899 --> 01:09:57,403
<i>And recognize each other upon landing</i>

913
01:09:57,569 --> 01:10:01,407
<i>At long last, love reunites us</i>

914
01:10:01,573 --> 01:10:05,369
<i>We'll soon get married</i>

915
01:10:05,536 --> 01:10:08,122
<i>And spend the money we've earned</i>

916
01:10:08,288 --> 01:10:11,875
<i>To pay for the wedding and the furnishing</i>

917
01:10:12,710 --> 01:10:15,796
How many days have we been on the march?

918
01:10:15,963 --> 01:10:17,005
Twenty-one.

919
01:10:17,715 --> 01:10:20,342
It feels like a century, at least.

920
01:10:23,220 --> 01:10:26,598
We'll soon be there.

921
01:10:27,933 --> 01:10:33,814
<i>Heave-ho, shipmates, hoist the mainsail</i>

922
01:10:35,441 --> 01:10:39,611
Maybe they've had a
counter-revolution by now.

923
01:10:39,778 --> 01:10:40,946
You think?

924
01:10:41,113 --> 01:10:45,534
You don't think Robespierre
will be welcoming us, do you?

925
01:10:45,701 --> 01:10:49,329
More likely the Emperor
of Austria with a holy army.

926
01:10:49,496 --> 01:10:52,875
And there aren't any mountains to hide in.

927
01:10:53,041 --> 01:10:57,588
Remember those days with
Chamois? Those were the days.

928
01:10:59,173 --> 01:11:00,674
What is happening in Paris?

929
01:11:10,601 --> 01:11:13,479
STRONG AND UNITED

930
01:11:26,658 --> 01:11:28,911
Where are the Dauphinois?

931
01:11:29,495 --> 01:11:30,829
I've lost the Dauphinois!

932
01:11:30,996 --> 01:11:35,167
Are you sure you haven't lost your head?

933
01:11:46,053 --> 01:11:47,971
Make room for the Breton federates!

934
01:11:48,138 --> 01:11:51,517
Clear the platform, it's
reserved for Breton federates.

935
01:11:51,683 --> 01:11:53,519
Is that equality?

936
01:11:53,685 --> 01:11:56,396
Why Bretons on the platform and not me?

937
01:11:56,563 --> 01:11:59,066
Why you and not the Bretons?

938
01:11:59,233 --> 01:12:01,777
A fine thing if everyone was like you.

939
01:12:01,944 --> 01:12:06,532
Our brothers have left their
homes to save the country.

940
01:12:27,010 --> 01:12:31,473
HERE LIES THE BASTILLE

941
01:12:53,954 --> 01:12:59,960
HONOR TO THE MARSEILLAIS

942
01:13:07,801 --> 01:13:10,804
Long live the Marseillais!

943
01:13:15,434 --> 01:13:19,104
<i>Bloody standard is raised</i>

944
01:13:19,271 --> 01:13:22,733
<i>Listen to the sound in the fields</i>

945
01:13:22,900 --> 01:13:27,070
<i>The howling of these fearsome soldiers</i>

946
01:13:27,237 --> 01:13:30,949
<i>They are coming into our midst</i>

947
01:13:31,116 --> 01:13:35,245
<i>To cut the throats Of
your sons and consorts</i>

948
01:13:35,412 --> 01:13:39,082
<i>To arms, citizens</i>

949
01:13:39,249 --> 01:13:42,669
<i>Form your battalions</i>

950
01:13:42,836 --> 01:13:47,049
<i>March, march</i>

951
01:13:47,215 --> 01:13:50,594
<i>Let impure blood</i>

952
01:13:50,761 --> 01:13:54,348
<i>Water our furrows</i>

953
01:14:18,705 --> 01:14:21,291
It's not a painting, it's a fresco!

954
01:14:23,543 --> 01:14:25,087
What about me?

955
01:14:26,171 --> 01:14:27,506
I want another one!

956
01:14:27,673 --> 01:14:29,216
It's only natural, isn't it?

957
01:14:29,383 --> 01:14:30,759
Good wine, citizen.

958
01:14:30,926 --> 01:14:32,511
From my vineyard nearby.

959
01:14:32,678 --> 01:14:33,762
One more.

960
01:14:33,929 --> 01:14:34,888
Where's Robespierre?

961
01:14:35,055 --> 01:14:38,308
You can always find
him at the Jacobin Club.

962
01:14:38,892 --> 01:14:42,312
We've arranged a banquet
in a Champs-Élysées café.

963
01:14:42,479 --> 01:14:47,067
We fraternally invite you and your staff.

964
01:14:47,234 --> 01:14:51,071
Your invitation strikes straight
to our hearts. We'll be there.

965
01:14:53,156 --> 01:14:55,283
You have the sun in Paris, too.

966
01:14:56,994 --> 01:14:58,954
You can't imagine, citizen,

967
01:14:59,121 --> 01:15:02,290
the enthusiasm we met on our way.

968
01:15:02,457 --> 01:15:03,917
So it was a good journey?

969
01:15:04,084 --> 01:15:06,628
Indeed, we saw wonderful countryside.

970
01:15:12,259 --> 01:15:14,970
Tomatoes, like I'd never
seen outside of Marseilles.

971
01:15:15,137 --> 01:15:18,682
So that's the Champs-Élysées?
What a funny name!

972
01:15:19,391 --> 01:15:21,893
Elysian Fields, resting
place of dead Grecian heroes.

973
01:15:22,060 --> 01:15:24,062
I can't see any dead.

974
01:15:24,229 --> 01:15:28,275
Well, look at those
waiting for us by the café.

975
01:15:28,442 --> 01:15:32,738
I don't know if they're dead,
but they're from the other world.

976
01:15:34,072 --> 01:15:35,574
There they are!

977
01:15:36,074 --> 01:15:38,035
Down with the Marseillais!

978
01:15:41,038 --> 01:15:42,247
Come on, everyone!

979
01:15:42,414 --> 01:15:46,084
<i>Come on! String up the democrats!</i>

980
01:15:46,251 --> 01:15:49,504
<i>Come on! We'll get the democrats!</i>

981
01:15:49,671 --> 01:15:51,298
They're aristocrats.

982
01:15:51,465 --> 01:15:53,967
Pay no attention. It's just provocation.

983
01:16:05,228 --> 01:16:10,525
TO FRIENDS OF THE CONSTITUTION

984
01:16:12,986 --> 01:16:16,740
Don't answer back, comrades.
Keep calm and orderly.

985
01:16:16,907 --> 01:16:18,200
Come and eat, citizen.

986
01:16:22,829 --> 01:16:25,540
I'll have love apples.

987
01:16:25,707 --> 01:16:27,667
- What's that?
- Tomatoes, of course.

988
01:16:27,834 --> 01:16:30,128
Tomatoes?

989
01:16:34,633 --> 01:16:37,219
We want to see the Marseillais!

990
01:16:37,385 --> 01:16:39,387
There they are, eating.

991
01:16:39,554 --> 01:16:41,723
String up the Marseillais!

992
01:16:42,307 --> 01:16:43,809
Watch our feet.

993
01:16:43,975 --> 01:16:45,727
That will do!

994
01:16:45,894 --> 01:16:49,648
Incredible! The rabble invade
even the Champs-Élysées.

995
01:16:49,815 --> 01:16:53,026
- Long live the nation!
- No, long live the king!

996
01:17:19,219 --> 01:17:21,429
Come and help us, Marseillais!

997
01:17:24,015 --> 01:17:26,726
- Oh, well, they asked for it.
- He's right!

998
01:17:45,328 --> 01:17:48,248
We'd better go. I'll escort you.

999
01:17:48,415 --> 01:17:51,877
We live too far away, at
Faubourg Saint-Antoine.

1000
01:17:52,043 --> 01:17:53,461
It doesn't matter.

1001
01:17:53,628 --> 01:17:55,797
I can't leave you unprotected.

1002
01:17:55,964 --> 01:17:59,801
Paris seems more infested
with brigands than the forests.

1003
01:18:10,187 --> 01:18:12,647
Stop, citizen! I'll drop my guard.

1004
01:18:13,523 --> 01:18:15,108
Just one question:

1005
01:18:15,775 --> 01:18:16,943
why are we fighting?

1006
01:18:17,777 --> 01:18:19,654
We both wear the National Guard uniform.

1007
01:18:19,821 --> 01:18:22,866
You're a Republican.
I'm a partisan of order.

1008
01:18:23,033 --> 01:18:26,745
If you're a partisan of
order, why ruin our banquet?

1009
01:18:26,912 --> 01:18:29,664
Your banquet? Defend
yourself, miserable anarchist!

1010
01:18:29,831 --> 01:18:32,959
We're coming!

1011
01:18:39,674 --> 01:18:42,594
Bandit!

1012
01:18:44,054 --> 01:18:45,513
Tell your master

1013
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:50,227
we won't throw him in a little pond,

1014
01:18:50,393 --> 01:18:52,812
he'll go into Marseilles
harbor, with the sharks!

1015
01:19:03,573 --> 01:19:05,116
To me, aristocrats!

1016
01:19:08,912 --> 01:19:10,789
To my cudgel, aristocrats!

1017
01:19:24,427 --> 01:19:27,180
- Take your jacket.
- I don't need it.

1018
01:19:28,473 --> 01:19:30,976
Does it often rain like this in Paris?

1019
01:19:31,142 --> 01:19:32,227
It does.

1020
01:19:32,769 --> 01:19:34,938
Umbrella-sellers must make a fortune.

1021
01:19:35,897 --> 01:19:38,692
- What about Marseilles?
- It never rains there.

1022
01:19:38,858 --> 01:19:40,694
There's a cab.

1023
01:19:40,860 --> 01:19:42,737
You're mad, we can't afford it.

1024
01:19:42,904 --> 01:19:46,533
I'll take care of it. We're
rolling in money in Marseilles.

1025
01:19:46,700 --> 01:19:49,286
Wait, I'll hail it. Cab!

1026
01:20:00,130 --> 01:20:01,965
Open the gate!

1027
01:20:22,235 --> 01:20:25,405
I wonder what sort of bird
will hatch out of this egg?

1028
01:20:25,822 --> 01:20:27,449
What do you think?

1029
01:20:33,163 --> 01:20:34,581
Monsieur Leroux?

1030
01:20:35,165 --> 01:20:41,713
Sire, I fear it may be no
bird, but a dangerous reptile.

1031
01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:43,590
What do you know about it?

1032
01:20:44,341 --> 01:20:49,220
Permit me to recall phrases
addressed by this Brunswick,

1033
01:20:49,387 --> 01:20:52,724
commander-in-chief of
the armies invading France,

1034
01:20:52,891 --> 01:20:55,977
to the people in the
names of Austria and France

1035
01:20:56,144 --> 01:20:59,272
and, more seriously, in my name.

1036
01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:04,736
"Inhabitants of cities and villages

1037
01:21:04,903 --> 01:21:09,240
opposing troops of their
Imperial and Royal Majesties...

1038
01:21:11,201 --> 01:21:14,996
will be punished according
to strict rules of war

1039
01:21:15,163 --> 01:21:18,500
and their houses burned or demolished."

1040
01:21:21,961 --> 01:21:24,422
It is somewhat shocking

1041
01:21:24,589 --> 01:21:27,425
to find our person cited in a manifesto

1042
01:21:27,592 --> 01:21:30,178
containing such threats
against our subjects.

1043
01:21:30,345 --> 01:21:33,431
Malicious tongues will not
fail to draw comparisons,

1044
01:21:33,598 --> 01:21:36,935
ill-calculated to increase our popularity.

1045
01:21:39,896 --> 01:21:42,440
"The inhabitants of
Paris, without exceptions,

1046
01:21:42,607 --> 01:21:46,569
shall be required to submit to the king...

1047
01:21:49,447 --> 01:21:53,451
To hold personally responsible
members of the Assembly

1048
01:21:53,618 --> 01:21:55,787
the Departments and Regions..."

1049
01:21:55,954 --> 01:21:57,622
Everybody, in fact!

1050
01:21:57,789 --> 01:22:00,458
"Should the Tuileries Palace be attacked,

1051
01:22:00,625 --> 01:22:04,295
exemplary and unforgettable
vengeance will be exacted

1052
01:22:04,462 --> 01:22:10,927
by submitting the city to a
terrible and total subversion."

1053
01:22:15,056 --> 01:22:16,975
Subversion? A curious word.

1054
01:22:19,018 --> 01:22:21,938
Unfortunately, it states
clearly what it means.

1055
01:22:27,152 --> 01:22:28,736
You informed me, Madame,

1056
01:22:28,903 --> 01:22:33,366
that we might attribute this
little literary masterpiece...

1057
01:22:35,326 --> 01:22:37,328
to Monsieur de Limon.

1058
01:22:37,495 --> 01:22:40,874
Former servant of my brother
Provence, presently in exile.

1059
01:22:42,625 --> 01:22:45,628
Frankly, I do not care for his style.

1060
01:22:46,379 --> 01:22:50,258
Those behind him are the
real authors of this manifesto.

1061
01:22:50,675 --> 01:22:55,054
They are waving torches
close to a barrel of powder.

1062
01:22:55,221 --> 01:22:56,222
You know them?

1063
01:22:57,974 --> 01:22:59,559
Better than you think.

1064
01:23:03,188 --> 01:23:05,732
So the question arises...

1065
01:23:06,983 --> 01:23:09,569
shall we, yes or no,

1066
01:23:09,736 --> 01:23:13,698
communicate this manifesto
to the Assembly, make it public?

1067
01:23:14,574 --> 01:23:18,661
Gentlemen, I ask you for your advice.

1068
01:23:19,662 --> 01:23:23,666
I have summoned you for this purpose.

1069
01:23:26,002 --> 01:23:30,840
Sire, this manifesto is the work
of your most far-seeing friends.

1070
01:23:31,257 --> 01:23:35,887
Its publication will bring
joy to all sensible people.

1071
01:23:36,721 --> 01:23:39,766
I apologize for referring
to my private life,

1072
01:23:39,933 --> 01:23:44,103
but yesterday, my stockbroker
and I discussed the war.

1073
01:23:44,521 --> 01:23:46,105
He said to me:

1074
01:23:46,272 --> 01:23:50,235
"I would rather see Prussians
camping in Place Louis XV

1075
01:23:50,401 --> 01:23:53,238
and the French pound falling below zero

1076
01:23:53,404 --> 01:23:58,201
than have the elements of
disorder encouraged by a victory."

1077
01:24:00,119 --> 01:24:04,916
Sire, I strongly urge the
publication of this manifesto,

1078
01:24:05,083 --> 01:24:07,418
which will strike terror into
your rebellious subjects.

1079
01:24:07,585 --> 01:24:10,004
Unless it transports them with fury.

1080
01:24:11,881 --> 01:24:15,718
This time, the stake is the
very existence of the monarchy.

1081
01:24:16,261 --> 01:24:17,971
You are right, Leroux.

1082
01:24:18,888 --> 01:24:21,808
The stage is set for the
last act of the tragedy.

1083
01:24:22,392 --> 01:24:24,852
I am inclined to ring up the curtain.

1084
01:24:25,270 --> 01:24:27,772
In war, the best defense is attack.

1085
01:24:27,939 --> 01:24:31,025
I am eager to resolve
this false situation.

1086
01:24:31,192 --> 01:24:34,112
A king who cannot rule.

1087
01:24:34,279 --> 01:24:37,448
Subjects who are
subjects but no longer obey.

1088
01:24:37,615 --> 01:24:41,077
A war we are obliged to
wage against our natural allies,

1089
01:24:41,911 --> 01:24:43,496
our own relatives.

1090
01:24:44,163 --> 01:24:48,001
And those we call our enemies
fight to save our persons.

1091
01:24:48,418 --> 01:24:50,169
This perpetual surrender,

1092
01:24:50,336 --> 01:24:53,548
these detestable
compromises with men we hate,

1093
01:24:53,715 --> 01:24:56,801
these principles we
consider to be blasphemy.

1094
01:24:56,968 --> 01:25:01,639
Let the revolt come! Quickly!
Let them attack the palace!

1095
01:25:01,806 --> 01:25:05,560
This time we are ready,
Monsieur de La Chesnaye tells me.

1096
01:25:05,727 --> 01:25:10,356
We can count on the loyalty
of the Swiss and our gentlemen.

1097
01:25:10,523 --> 01:25:12,775
The best elements of the army are with us.

1098
01:25:13,359 --> 01:25:15,612
Revolutionaries may enter the palace,

1099
01:25:15,778 --> 01:25:17,822
but will not leave alive.

1100
01:25:17,989 --> 01:25:22,201
As with us, it is the
most active elements,

1101
01:25:22,619 --> 01:25:27,248
I do not venture to pay the best
who will instinctively lead them.

1102
01:25:27,415 --> 01:25:32,337
So this extermination will
end the whole sinister drama.

1103
01:25:32,503 --> 01:25:37,008
The difficulty is that we,
too, are actors in this drama,

1104
01:25:37,175 --> 01:25:41,304
which is obviously less
convenient than being spectators.

1105
01:25:44,515 --> 01:25:47,352
Our cousin of Austria has the best of it.

1106
01:25:47,518 --> 01:25:50,146
What does he risk? Not his head, anyway.

1107
01:25:50,521 --> 01:25:53,524
And what a happy prospect
for this young braggart

1108
01:25:53,691 --> 01:25:56,194
to arrive in Paris as conquering hero,

1109
01:25:56,361 --> 01:25:58,863
and so play the <i>deus ex machina.</i>

1110
01:26:02,158 --> 01:26:06,871
Most distressing of all, I shall
have to invite him to the hunt.

1111
01:26:07,038 --> 01:26:08,998
What is wrong with that?

1112
01:26:12,835 --> 01:26:14,295
He shoots so badly.

1113
01:26:14,462 --> 01:26:16,964
I have it from his late
Majesty, your brother,

1114
01:26:17,131 --> 01:26:20,551
and from his minister
Kaunitz, who opposes this war.

1115
01:26:20,718 --> 01:26:23,888
How can you believe a
person who cleans his teeth

1116
01:26:24,055 --> 01:26:25,807
every day, and in public, too?

1117
01:26:25,973 --> 01:26:28,893
I am sure this strange custom
is excellent for the health.

1118
01:26:29,060 --> 01:26:31,479
We wash our hands, why not our teeth?

1119
01:26:32,063 --> 01:26:35,024
If I were not presently so preoccupied,

1120
01:26:35,441 --> 01:26:38,486
I would be pleased to try this brushing.

1121
01:26:38,653 --> 01:26:41,489
In any case, my nephew
the Emperor shoots well.

1122
01:26:41,656 --> 01:26:44,826
He shoots badly.
Hunting is a lost art today.

1123
01:26:44,992 --> 01:26:50,748
Beaters set the game
up like a game of skittles.

1124
01:26:57,714 --> 01:27:01,426
Sire, you must have
very small affection for me

1125
01:27:01,592 --> 01:27:04,011
to publicly abuse a member of my family.

1126
01:27:04,178 --> 01:27:08,433
Madame, I humbly beg
your pardon. It is the hunt.

1127
01:27:08,599 --> 01:27:13,438
My passion for it makes
me forget the proprieties.

1128
01:27:20,069 --> 01:27:21,446
Gentlemen,

1129
01:27:21,612 --> 01:27:25,032
have Brunswick's Manifesto
put to the Assembly.

1136
01:28:09,952 --> 01:28:12,997
An insult! The Brunswick
Manifesto arouses the Nation!

1137
01:28:13,164 --> 01:28:16,250
Beware, citizens, lest you
be lulled by opiate-mongers.

1138
01:28:16,417 --> 01:28:19,337
Published by a group of men of letters.

1139
01:28:19,504 --> 01:28:22,465
All right-thinking people
welcome the Brunswick manifesto.

1140
01:28:22,632 --> 01:28:25,176
Soon we shall throng
to magnificent festivities.

1141
01:28:25,343 --> 01:28:26,677
DEDICATED TO THE NATION

AND PETITS AUGUSTINS DISTRICT

1143
01:28:28,763 --> 01:28:30,556
In the name of the Constitution

1144
01:28:30,723 --> 01:28:32,892
constantly evoked by King Louis XVI,

1145
01:28:33,059 --> 01:28:36,187
we now invoke it in turn
to demand his deposition.

1146
01:28:36,354 --> 01:28:37,980
THE PEOPLE'S FRIEND,

1147
01:28:38,147 --> 01:28:40,733
PATRIOTIC, FREE AND IMPARTIAL.

PARIS, 3RD AUGUST 1792

1150
01:28:47,240 --> 01:28:49,242
ASSEMBLY PROCEEDINGS OF 2ND AUGUST.

1151
01:28:49,408 --> 01:28:52,370
Brunswick's Manifesto and
the king's accompanying letter.

1152
01:28:52,537 --> 01:28:57,208
France, long starved of grain
and coin by royal monopolies,

1153
01:28:57,375 --> 01:29:02,547
troubled by traitors and
counter-revolutionary officials,

1154
01:29:02,713 --> 01:29:06,551
torn by factions,
betrayed by its generals,

1155
01:29:06,717 --> 01:29:09,053
is beset by 500,000 satellites

1156
01:29:09,220 --> 01:29:13,099
of despots in league with
Louis XVI to replace our yoke.

1157
01:29:13,266 --> 01:29:17,436
The satellites are Austrians,
Prussians and priests.

1158
01:29:17,603 --> 01:29:19,438
- Their audacious leader...
- Brunswick!

1159
01:29:19,605 --> 01:29:22,775
- No, the Count d'Artois.
- Excuse me.

1160
01:29:22,942 --> 01:29:26,404
The invader's general
is the Duke of Brunswick.

1161
01:29:26,571 --> 01:29:29,240
Freemason and secret agent of the Pope.

1162
01:29:29,407 --> 01:29:31,325
Have it your way.

1163
01:29:31,492 --> 01:29:34,662
Their audacious leader,
spurred on by the Tuileries,

1164
01:29:34,829 --> 01:29:38,958
demands that we submit
to our former shackles.

1165
01:29:39,125 --> 01:29:40,126
What next?

1166
01:29:40,293 --> 01:29:42,837
My dear compatriots, wake up.

1167
01:29:43,004 --> 01:29:45,798
Hold hostage Louis XVI, his wife, his son,

1168
01:29:45,965 --> 01:29:48,593
his singers, all your
faithless representatives.

1169
01:29:48,759 --> 01:29:51,178
The Nation seeks
redress from these traitors

1170
01:29:51,345 --> 01:29:53,598
who must first be
sacrificed to the public weal.

1171
01:29:53,764 --> 01:29:57,435
Then will come the banishment
of the shameful Capets

1172
01:29:57,602 --> 01:29:59,520
and the punishment of all conspirators.

1173
01:29:59,687 --> 01:30:01,480
Signed: Priest of the People.

1174
01:30:01,647 --> 01:30:03,608
Long live Marat.

1175
01:30:03,774 --> 01:30:06,110
All the same, Capet's a funny name.

1176
01:30:06,277 --> 01:30:08,362
You're Bomier.

1177
01:30:08,529 --> 01:30:10,990
Why shouldn't the king's family be Capet?

1178
01:30:11,407 --> 01:30:13,451
Any news, Arnaud?

1179
01:30:13,618 --> 01:30:16,954
I've been with Garnier
and the other delegates.

1180
01:30:17,121 --> 01:30:19,707
Let's take action and talk later.

1181
01:30:19,874 --> 01:30:24,795
Robespierre and the others
haven't slept for two days.

1182
01:30:25,338 --> 01:30:27,715
There have been meetings everywhere.

1183
01:30:27,882 --> 01:30:31,052
Some people wanted to march at once.

1184
01:30:31,218 --> 01:30:34,055
Robespierre is against unprepared actions,

1185
01:30:34,221 --> 01:30:36,682
otherwise we'd all be fighting now.

1186
01:30:36,849 --> 01:30:38,392
The Mauconseil section

1187
01:30:38,559 --> 01:30:41,562
simply proclaimed the king's deposition.

1188
01:30:41,729 --> 01:30:43,814
In the end, what have we decided?

1189
01:30:43,981 --> 01:30:45,900
Yes, what have we decided?

1190
01:30:47,068 --> 01:30:50,154
If the king does not withdraw his veto,

1191
01:30:50,321 --> 01:30:53,366
or take suitable measures
for National Defense,

1192
01:30:53,532 --> 01:30:56,661
we give the Assembly
one week to depose him,

1193
01:30:56,827 --> 01:30:58,412
according to the Constitution.

1194
01:30:58,579 --> 01:31:01,207
But who is this "we"?

1195
01:31:01,374 --> 01:31:04,669
I haven't decided anything.
Everyone says "we"!

1196
01:31:04,835 --> 01:31:08,047
Your representatives,
the people you elected.

1197
01:31:08,214 --> 01:31:12,343
Members of the Central
Committee of Federates,

1198
01:31:12,510 --> 01:31:16,931
in consultation with the
revolutionary sections of Paris.

1199
01:31:17,473 --> 01:31:18,891
If the Assembly refuses?

1200
01:31:20,142 --> 01:31:22,311
Then we attack the palace.

1201
01:31:22,478 --> 01:31:26,399
In military terms, it's called ultimatum.

1202
01:31:26,565 --> 01:31:30,861
- Come on! Grub up!
- You're in a hurry.

1203
01:31:31,904 --> 01:31:34,073
- Potatoes again!
- Only a few.

1204
01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:38,411
That's the lot. They're all we had left.

1205
01:31:38,577 --> 01:31:41,247
Lot or not, I've had enough!

1206
01:31:41,414 --> 01:31:43,541
I refuse to eat roots.

1207
01:31:43,708 --> 01:31:46,168
I'm not a pig or a savage.

1208
01:31:46,335 --> 01:31:51,215
This precious tuber can be
cooked in 20 different ways,

1209
01:31:51,382 --> 01:31:53,926
each more delicious than the last.

1210
01:31:54,093 --> 01:31:58,597
It generously provides us
with flour, starch, medicine,

1211
01:31:58,764 --> 01:32:01,642
even an excellent brandy.

1212
01:32:01,809 --> 01:32:03,894
King Louis XVI himself,

1213
01:32:04,061 --> 01:32:07,982
a poor politician, but
a shrewd trencherman,

1214
01:32:08,149 --> 01:32:12,319
feeds himself exclusively on potatoes.

1215
01:32:12,486 --> 01:32:15,781
If you don't like them,
Bomier, give them to me.

1216
01:32:17,199 --> 01:32:20,411
I'll eat them as a
revolutionary discipline.

1217
01:32:20,578 --> 01:32:22,705
If you'd rather eat something else,

1218
01:32:23,122 --> 01:32:25,916
the Assembly offers us 30 sous a day

1219
01:32:26,083 --> 01:32:28,252
if we'll leave Paris.

1220
01:32:28,419 --> 01:32:30,755
Thirty sous a day for leaving Paris,

1221
01:32:30,921 --> 01:32:33,924
that's not enough after that march.

1222
01:32:34,091 --> 01:32:36,218
Moissant was right to refuse.

1223
01:32:37,803 --> 01:32:41,265
So you sometimes agree with
your leaders, Monsieur Bomier?

1224
01:32:41,432 --> 01:32:43,893
It happens, Monsieur Arnaud.

1225
01:32:44,060 --> 01:32:46,270
In that Assembly,

1226
01:32:46,437 --> 01:32:50,107
there are traitors who
should be sent to the gallows.

1227
01:32:50,274 --> 01:32:53,778
Those 30 sous are offered
by the Austrian Emperor.

1228
01:32:54,320 --> 01:32:59,617
That Brunswick's no fool.
I bet I know what he said:

1229
01:32:59,784 --> 01:33:04,163
"François, those Marseillais
will never let you into Paris."

1230
01:33:04,663 --> 01:33:06,332
Any salt?

1231
01:33:06,957 --> 01:33:09,794
As much as you like, now
the Salt Tax is abolished.

1232
01:33:10,836 --> 01:33:11,921
Enough for me.

1233
01:33:13,839 --> 01:33:17,843
Today is the 3rd of
August. Let's say one week.

1234
01:33:21,931 --> 01:33:26,310
By the 10th, those of
us not dead of hunger

1235
01:33:26,477 --> 01:33:28,813
will have a chance to eat again.

1236
01:34:38,966 --> 01:34:43,387
FRENCH CHILDREN'S THEATER

1237
01:35:05,367 --> 01:35:06,785
Be seated, citizen.

1238
01:35:06,952 --> 01:35:08,871
They are the Marseillais!

1239
01:35:11,498 --> 01:35:12,791
Citizens,

1240
01:35:12,958 --> 01:35:17,129
the performance continues
with <i>King and Nation.</i>

1241
01:35:35,397 --> 01:35:36,774
The king!

1242
01:35:38,943 --> 01:35:40,569
Long live the Nation!

1243
01:35:44,907 --> 01:35:48,369
<i>Madame Nation</i>

1244
01:35:48,786 --> 01:35:53,499
<i>Come to my arms so I may embrace you</i>

1245
01:35:55,042 --> 01:35:56,752
<i>Monsieur King</i>

1246
01:35:56,919 --> 01:36:00,130
<i>It is impossible to come to your arms</i>

1247
01:36:00,297 --> 01:36:04,426
<i>The bridge between us is broken</i>

1248
01:36:04,593 --> 01:36:09,723
<i>And an abyss separates us</i>

1249
01:36:11,225 --> 01:36:13,894
<i>What is this abyss?</i>

1250
01:36:15,104 --> 01:36:20,192
<i>It is the manifesto of Brunswick!</i>

1251
01:36:43,215 --> 01:36:46,176
So the day after tomorrow
you prepare for action?

1252
01:36:48,387 --> 01:36:51,473
And on the 10th you enter the palace?

1253
01:36:55,394 --> 01:36:57,313
What are you doing on the 11th?

1254
01:36:57,479 --> 01:36:59,773
On the 11th, we leave for the frontier.

1255
01:37:02,318 --> 01:37:03,986
After the war,

1256
01:37:04,862 --> 01:37:08,282
will you go back to your
mother in Marseilles?

1257
01:37:08,449 --> 01:37:11,410
No, I'd like to settle in Paris.

1258
01:37:12,244 --> 01:37:13,662
I'm a good mason.

1259
01:37:14,079 --> 01:37:17,541
My friends call me "Gamate."

1260
01:37:18,500 --> 01:37:21,462
Maybe you don't know what that is?

1261
01:37:21,879 --> 01:37:25,341
It is a little wooden gadget like this,

1262
01:37:25,758 --> 01:37:29,386
we masons use it to mix mortar.

1263
01:37:40,481 --> 01:37:42,232
Were you asleep?

1264
01:37:42,399 --> 01:37:44,234
No, I was dreaming.

1265
01:37:44,401 --> 01:37:48,238
Dreaming? You seem to dream a lot.

1266
01:37:53,577 --> 01:37:55,287
I don't understand you.

1267
01:37:55,871 --> 01:38:00,751
You've been courting Louison
for weeks and haven't kissed her.

1268
01:38:00,918 --> 01:38:04,171
- I daren't.
- Poor old man.

1269
01:38:04,338 --> 01:38:06,673
Don't be sorry for me.

1270
01:38:07,091 --> 01:38:09,968
I spend whole days in paradise.

1271
01:38:10,135 --> 01:38:11,345
Doing what?

1272
01:38:11,512 --> 01:38:12,721
Looking at her.

1273
01:38:13,764 --> 01:38:18,268
Today, I was fascinated
by a fold behind her ear.

1274
01:38:18,811 --> 01:38:20,646
It's extremely pretty

1275
01:38:21,188 --> 01:38:23,565
and I love it very much.

1276
01:38:24,149 --> 01:38:27,069
I didn't see much else at the theater,

1277
01:38:28,028 --> 01:38:30,447
but it was nice all the same.

1278
01:38:30,906 --> 01:38:33,826
I really enjoyed myself.

1279
01:38:35,327 --> 01:38:37,871
If we ever get back from all this,

1280
01:38:38,831 --> 01:38:40,374
I'd like to marry her.

1281
01:38:42,000 --> 01:38:45,045
But maybe she won't have me.

1282
01:38:56,098 --> 01:38:58,350
Squad, attention!

1283
01:38:59,601 --> 01:39:01,145
Comrades,

1284
01:39:02,104 --> 01:39:03,439
our colleague Garnier,

1285
01:39:03,605 --> 01:39:05,816
delegate to the Central Committee,

1286
01:39:05,983 --> 01:39:09,403
sends word that our brothers
in the Théâtre Français section

1287
01:39:09,570 --> 01:39:11,572
will give the warning signal.

1288
01:39:13,115 --> 01:39:16,368
It will be a cannon fired
from Pont Saint-Michel.

1289
01:39:17,286 --> 01:39:22,332
Immediately, all patriot
church bells will ring,

1290
01:39:22,499 --> 01:39:26,336
summoning all
revolutionary citizens to arms.

1291
01:39:27,546 --> 01:39:29,756
Along with the forces of Théâtre Français,

1292
01:39:29,923 --> 01:39:32,593
Faubourg Saint-Marceau
and Breton federates,

1293
01:39:32,759 --> 01:39:35,220
we'll go to the palace gates.

1294
01:39:36,013 --> 01:39:38,682
Before attacking, we'll wait for Santerre,

1295
01:39:38,849 --> 01:39:43,228
who'll bring reinforcements
from other sections.

1296
01:39:44,521 --> 01:39:47,316
We must try to avoid a bloody action.

1297
01:39:47,983 --> 01:39:53,989
Revolutionaries should
prefer words to battle.

1298
01:39:54,990 --> 01:39:59,786
We'll speak to the Swiss and
French who defend a lost cause.

1299
01:40:00,913 --> 01:40:05,792
If they resist, you do your
duty as mercifully as possible.

1300
01:40:06,585 --> 01:40:10,464
Let us tell ourselves that,
whatever our personal fate,

1301
01:40:10,631 --> 01:40:14,259
tomorrow's sun will set
on a France free of treason,

1302
01:40:14,426 --> 01:40:17,471
and ready to face the foreign invaders!

1303
01:40:19,598 --> 01:40:22,476
At ease!

1304
01:40:26,063 --> 01:40:28,065
I wish I could see Louison again.

1305
01:40:57,761 --> 01:41:01,515
We have two alternatives,
Madame: attack or defense.

1306
01:41:01,682 --> 01:41:04,101
We defend. These are His Majesty's orders.

1307
01:41:04,560 --> 01:41:08,105
Then it's best to allow
the gates to be forced.

1308
01:41:08,272 --> 01:41:12,025
Once the rebels are
inside, a volley from our guns

1309
01:41:12,192 --> 01:41:14,152
should destroy the majority.

1310
01:41:14,319 --> 01:41:18,865
Should some survive, or
our gunners be won over,

1311
01:41:19,032 --> 01:41:23,287
our best men occupy
windows overlooking the yard,

1312
01:41:23,453 --> 01:41:27,457
in a position to effect a crippling fire.

1313
01:41:27,624 --> 01:41:29,501
We may expect with luck

1314
01:41:29,668 --> 01:41:33,755
few assailants to escape our trap alive.

1315
01:41:34,298 --> 01:41:36,675
We must keep right on our side.

1316
01:41:37,426 --> 01:41:41,930
By entering the yard, they
will avow their insubordination.

1317
01:41:43,849 --> 01:41:45,976
Conduct me to His Majesty.

1318
01:41:47,978 --> 01:41:50,897
Make room for one of your own, gentlemen.

1319
01:41:51,356 --> 01:41:52,899
Make room, gentlemen.

1320
01:42:08,832 --> 01:42:11,251
Madame, we have the upper hand,

1321
01:42:11,418 --> 01:42:16,131
but all these people
hinder the work of defense.

1322
01:42:16,548 --> 01:42:20,677
Sir, you speak out of turn. I
answer for the gentlemen here.

1323
01:42:20,844 --> 01:42:22,220
Long live the queen!

1324
01:42:22,971 --> 01:42:26,433
They will march with you,
however you order them.

1325
01:42:26,600 --> 01:42:29,102
They are prepared for any eventuality.

1326
01:42:29,519 --> 01:42:32,064
These are trusty men.

1327
01:42:32,230 --> 01:42:33,440
Long live the queen!

1328
01:42:45,035 --> 01:42:48,080
Sire, do you eat in such circumstances?

1329
01:42:48,497 --> 01:42:50,040
And why not?

1330
01:42:50,207 --> 01:42:54,169
The stomach is ignorant
of the subtleties of politics.

1331
01:42:54,586 --> 01:42:56,296
I ordered tomatoes,

1332
01:42:56,463 --> 01:43:00,592
a vegetable much discussed
since the Marseillais arrived.

1333
01:43:01,009 --> 01:43:05,430
I wished to taste it. Shall
I give you my impression?

1334
01:43:06,348 --> 01:43:09,851
It is an excellent dish which
we did wrong to neglect.

1335
01:43:10,352 --> 01:43:13,397
Sire, will you not review your troops?

1336
01:43:13,563 --> 01:43:16,149
It would be appropriate to
rekindle their enthusiasm.

1337
01:43:17,734 --> 01:43:20,237
I have just so decided
with these gentlemen.

1338
01:43:27,119 --> 01:43:29,621
Sire, your wig is askew.

1339
01:43:32,624 --> 01:43:36,002
Picard is upset today,
he does everything askew.

1340
01:44:01,778 --> 01:44:05,115
Picard, thank you. I'll be back.

1341
01:44:08,285 --> 01:44:12,205
De La Chesnaye, Maillardoz, de Bateman,

1342
01:44:12,622 --> 01:44:15,500
Adjutant General Deneix, conduct me.

1343
01:44:19,087 --> 01:44:20,881
Long live the king!

1344
01:44:25,177 --> 01:44:27,804
<i>O Richard</i>

1345
01:44:27,971 --> 01:44:31,892
<i>O my King</i>

1346
01:44:32,309 --> 01:44:38,774
<i>The universe abandons you</i>

1347
01:44:39,274 --> 01:44:43,987
<i>Only we are left</i>

1348
01:44:44,154 --> 01:44:47,657
<i>To care</i>

1349
01:44:47,824 --> 01:44:51,536
<i>For you</i>

1350
01:44:51,953 --> 01:44:55,207
<i>I alone in the universe</i>

1351
01:44:55,373 --> 01:44:58,668
<i>Would like to break your chains</i>

1352
01:44:58,835 --> 01:45:05,091
<i>While all the rest abandon you</i>

1353
01:45:22,567 --> 01:45:24,236
Long live France!

1354
01:45:33,328 --> 01:45:34,955
Long live the king!

1355
01:45:51,096 --> 01:45:52,305
Long live the king!

1356
01:46:12,868 --> 01:46:14,536
Present arms!

1357
01:46:20,375 --> 01:46:22,836
What is His Majesty doing here?

1358
01:46:28,049 --> 01:46:29,759
Long live the Nation!

1359
01:46:47,152 --> 01:46:49,112
Down with the king! Down with the veto!

1360
01:46:49,279 --> 01:46:50,822
Yes, down with the veto!

1361
01:46:55,452 --> 01:46:56,995
Sire, this way.

1362
01:46:59,581 --> 01:47:01,458
Scum! I'll teach you manners!

1363
01:47:01,625 --> 01:47:03,293
Leave us alone!

1364
01:47:03,460 --> 01:47:07,339
Otherwise, as good
citizens, we'll open the gate

1365
01:47:07,505 --> 01:47:09,549
and turn our guns to the palace!

1366
01:47:09,966 --> 01:47:12,218
Back, or I'll get you
my saber in your belly!

1367
01:47:13,637 --> 01:47:17,307
I forbid you to insult my
men. They answer to me!

1368
01:47:17,474 --> 01:47:18,808
Gentlemen.

1369
01:47:23,229 --> 01:47:24,856
Long live the Nation!

1370
01:47:42,958 --> 01:47:45,335
Please stop lolling on the ground, my son.

1371
01:47:45,961 --> 01:47:50,924
Rolling on carpets is a
bad habit you must break.

1372
01:48:23,039 --> 01:48:24,165
My sister...

1373
01:48:28,837 --> 01:48:30,839
This wig askew bothers me.

1374
01:48:32,590 --> 01:48:34,467
Try to get it straight.

1375
01:48:46,521 --> 01:48:50,400
Sire, the Department of
Paris, through my proxy,

1376
01:48:50,567 --> 01:48:53,695
would speak with you
alone with your family.

1377
01:48:53,862 --> 01:48:56,448
Royal ministers must
remain with His Majesty.

1378
01:48:56,614 --> 01:48:57,782
If the king desires!

1379
01:49:00,910 --> 01:49:03,413
Your Majesty's only safety

1380
01:49:03,580 --> 01:49:05,749
lies with the Assembly,

1381
01:49:05,915 --> 01:49:08,585
which alone commands the people's respect.

1382
01:49:09,878 --> 01:49:13,131
You must proceed there without delay.

1383
01:49:23,683 --> 01:49:25,018
We shall go.

1384
01:49:31,441 --> 01:49:33,985
Monsieur Roederer, you have won.

1385
01:49:34,152 --> 01:49:36,863
Madame, it is His Majesty's good judgment.

1386
01:49:43,078 --> 01:49:45,789
Will you answer for my brother's life?

1387
01:49:45,955 --> 01:49:49,751
With my own, Madame. I
will walk before the king.

1388
01:49:52,337 --> 01:49:55,799
Are we alone, then?
Can no one take action?

1389
01:49:55,965 --> 01:49:57,675
Yes, Madame, alone.

1390
01:49:57,842 --> 01:50:00,804
Action is useless, resistance impossible.

1391
01:50:00,970 --> 01:50:02,806
All of Paris is marching.

1392
01:50:04,140 --> 01:50:08,144
I beg Your Majesty to
dispense with your Court.

1393
01:50:08,770 --> 01:50:11,648
Be escorted by members
of the Department only,

1394
01:50:11,815 --> 01:50:14,067
who will surround the royal family.

1395
01:50:17,028 --> 01:50:18,822
As you wish.

1396
01:50:18,988 --> 01:50:22,450
Monsieur Roederer,
may the ministers follow?

1397
01:50:22,617 --> 01:50:26,079
Yes, they have their
place in the Assembly.

1398
01:50:26,246 --> 01:50:29,415
And Madame de Tourzel,
my children's governess?

1399
01:50:29,582 --> 01:50:30,834
Certainly, Madame.

1400
01:50:33,461 --> 01:50:37,924
As for you, ladies, I cannot
authorize you to leave here.

1401
01:50:38,341 --> 01:50:41,052
Permit me to give you some advice.

1402
01:50:41,469 --> 01:50:47,100
If the people invade the palace,
thieves and assassins will join in.

1403
01:50:47,517 --> 01:50:51,813
But organized revolutionary
groups will be there, too.

1404
01:50:51,980 --> 01:50:55,441
Avail yourselves of their protection.

1405
01:51:10,540 --> 01:51:14,210
The king and his family
proceed alone to the Assembly,

1406
01:51:14,377 --> 01:51:18,840
escorted by the ministers,
the Department and a guard.

1407
01:51:19,507 --> 01:51:21,342
Kindly make way.

1408
01:52:04,552 --> 01:52:07,805
The king has forsaken
us. What shall we do?

1409
01:52:09,140 --> 01:52:12,644
Gentlemen, you may return to your posts.

1410
01:52:13,061 --> 01:52:15,772
Leave them again and I'll have you shot!

1411
01:52:22,237 --> 01:52:25,114
We should welcome the
departure of His Majesty.

1412
01:52:25,657 --> 01:52:28,952
We no longer have to
guard their royal persons

1413
01:52:29,118 --> 01:52:31,204
and are now free to conclude this affair.

1414
01:52:31,663 --> 01:52:33,706
This battle must be the last.

1415
01:52:34,123 --> 01:52:36,417
The time has come to conquer or die.

1416
01:52:37,252 --> 01:52:39,379
Let us pray we conquer.

1417
01:53:14,163 --> 01:53:15,915
So many leaves.

1418
01:53:17,875 --> 01:53:19,752
They are falling early this year.

1419
01:54:12,180 --> 01:54:15,641
Are you waiting for
the deluge, Marseillais?

1420
01:54:15,808 --> 01:54:19,354
To the palace! Death to tyrants!

1421
01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:21,272
Why are we waiting?

1422
01:54:21,439 --> 01:54:24,233
Stuck here like rows of asparagus.

1423
01:54:24,400 --> 01:54:26,652
We look like silly turnips.

1424
01:54:26,819 --> 01:54:29,739
You're very anxious to fight, comrades.

1425
01:54:30,198 --> 01:54:35,119
You forgot the National
Guard in there, honest citizens.

1426
01:54:35,286 --> 01:54:37,413
I'll not be the first to fire.

1427
01:54:37,580 --> 01:54:38,498
You're right.

1428
01:54:38,664 --> 01:54:41,292
Arnaud's right to remind us.

1429
01:54:41,459 --> 01:54:42,752
True.

1430
01:54:42,919 --> 01:54:47,131
The people in there, they too
have fathers, mothers, uncles,

1431
01:54:47,298 --> 01:54:49,634
children, loved ones.

1432
01:54:50,051 --> 01:54:52,720
- Thinking of Louison?
- Yes, I'm thinking of her.

1433
01:55:41,727 --> 01:55:44,605
We must take advantage of the situation!

1434
01:55:47,108 --> 01:55:49,152
Squad, attention!

1435
01:55:50,778 --> 01:55:52,738
Present arms!

1436
01:55:53,906 --> 01:55:55,408
Forward!

1437
01:56:40,828 --> 01:56:42,830
Join us, brothers!

1438
01:56:44,165 --> 01:56:46,459
Long live France!

1439
01:57:19,700 --> 01:57:22,995
Avoid bloodshed!

1440
01:57:23,162 --> 01:57:26,165
March with us!

1441
01:57:28,543 --> 01:57:29,919
He's right.

1442
01:57:41,889 --> 01:57:44,058
Don't defend a lost cause.

1443
01:57:44,642 --> 01:57:47,395
Embrace the people's party, your own.

1444
01:57:49,897 --> 01:57:53,484
If we listened we would be dishonored.

1445
01:57:53,651 --> 01:57:56,320
Lay down your arms and save your lives.

1446
01:57:56,487 --> 01:57:59,490
But if you fight, the
consequences will be terrible.

1447
01:57:59,949 --> 01:58:04,954
Gentlemen, the time
has come to do our duty.

1448
01:58:05,121 --> 01:58:06,747
Give the order to fire.

1449
01:58:17,341 --> 01:58:21,387
Didn't you hear what Arnaud said? Join us.

1450
01:58:21,971 --> 01:58:26,142
We are Swiss. As long as we
live we never lay down our arms.

1451
01:58:26,309 --> 01:58:29,687
We do not deserve your insults.

1452
01:58:30,104 --> 01:58:33,524
We will not leave our
posts or be disarmed!

1453
01:58:34,483 --> 01:58:37,278
In your place I'd leave my post,

1454
01:58:37,445 --> 01:58:40,906
and go back to your
mountains, beyond Mont Blanc.

1455
01:58:41,073 --> 01:58:43,367
I know all about mountains, you know,

1456
01:58:43,534 --> 01:58:47,121
because Arnaud and me
lived there for three months...

1457
01:59:21,238 --> 01:59:22,406
Are you hit?

1458
01:59:22,573 --> 01:59:24,367
Leave me! Save the ammunition.

1459
01:59:25,868 --> 01:59:27,370
You're hit?

1460
01:59:27,536 --> 01:59:29,455
Go on, leave me!

1461
01:59:29,622 --> 01:59:33,584
- I'm not going to leave you there!
- Take this man away!

1462
01:59:36,712 --> 01:59:38,422
Attack!

1463
01:59:40,007 --> 01:59:42,385
Get out of the courtyard!

1464
02:00:02,154 --> 02:00:04,699
Long live France!

1465
02:00:09,495 --> 02:00:11,122
Long live France!

1466
02:00:37,773 --> 02:00:39,024
Halt!

1467
02:00:39,859 --> 02:00:42,695
Weapons ready!

1468
02:00:44,488 --> 02:00:45,531
Fire!

1469
02:00:48,284 --> 02:00:50,453
Forward!

1470
02:00:54,957 --> 02:00:59,962
HERE WE ARE PROUD TO
HAVE THE TITLE OF CITIZEN

1471
02:01:00,129 --> 02:01:01,380
He's wounded.

1472
02:01:02,089 --> 02:01:03,507
This way!

1473
02:01:23,277 --> 02:01:24,403
Halt!

1474
02:01:25,154 --> 02:01:27,531
Weapons ready!

1475
02:01:28,783 --> 02:01:29,825
Fire!

1476
02:01:30,493 --> 02:01:33,788
Fix bayonets! Forward!

1477
02:01:36,665 --> 02:01:38,334
I'm sure she'll come here.

1478
02:01:38,793 --> 02:01:40,795
She's a real patriot.

1479
02:01:41,837 --> 02:01:46,300
At the Bastille, she was
loading her father's gun.

1480
02:01:48,928 --> 02:01:50,513
How old is he?

1481
02:01:50,679 --> 02:01:51,680
Seven months.

1482
02:01:51,847 --> 02:01:54,683
He's a bonny child. Is he well?

1483
02:01:54,850 --> 02:01:58,145
He's cutting his
tooth... he cries all night.

1484
02:01:58,896 --> 02:02:00,564
I feel like crying, too.

1485
02:02:44,441 --> 02:02:48,529
PETIT SAINT ANTOINE DISTRICT

1486
02:02:53,868 --> 02:02:56,662
Comrades, I think they need us.

1487
02:02:57,788 --> 02:03:00,749
Don't worry, you'll be all right.

1488
02:03:04,211 --> 02:03:05,421
Good-bye, brother.

1489
02:03:08,716 --> 02:03:10,301
When you get home,

1490
02:03:10,885 --> 02:03:12,845
greet the mountains for me.

1491
02:03:35,075 --> 02:03:38,454
- What about Bomier?
- Bomier is wounded!

1492
02:03:40,497 --> 02:03:41,540
This way.

1493
02:03:46,754 --> 02:03:50,382
He's very low.

1494
02:03:50,549 --> 02:03:51,800
I think he's done for.

1495
02:03:53,594 --> 02:03:57,932
Don't tell him. Hold him in
your arms and comfort him.

1496
02:04:31,173 --> 02:04:33,092
I shan't enter the palace.

1497
02:04:34,802 --> 02:04:36,637
Never go to the frontier.

1498
02:04:38,347 --> 02:04:40,182
I'll never see Marseilles again.

1499
02:04:41,725 --> 02:04:43,394
My poor mother.

1500
02:04:44,728 --> 02:04:46,772
She'll worry so much.

1501
02:04:49,191 --> 02:04:53,237
Tell our friends I spent that 20 francs

1502
02:04:53,821 --> 02:04:55,948
belonging to the freckled boy.

1503
02:04:56,365 --> 02:04:58,075
And I don't regret it.

1504
02:04:59,743 --> 02:05:01,203
Not at all.

1505
02:05:23,767 --> 02:05:24,810
Halt!

1506
02:05:25,352 --> 02:05:26,979
Weapons ready!

1507
02:05:29,273 --> 02:05:30,315
Fire!

1508
02:05:56,008 --> 02:05:59,595
<i>To arms, citizens</i>

1509
02:05:59,762 --> 02:06:02,598
<i>Form your battalions</i>

1510
02:06:21,241 --> 02:06:23,327
- No blindfold.
- As you wish.

1511
02:06:23,494 --> 02:06:26,121
I am no citizen. I am
Arnaud de Hoffenberg.

1512
02:06:27,998 --> 02:06:29,166
Fire!

1513
02:06:29,333 --> 02:06:30,667
Halt!

1514
02:06:44,348 --> 02:06:45,808
Move on, citizens.

1515
02:06:51,230 --> 02:06:52,356
Look.

1516
02:07:01,782 --> 02:07:03,117
LOOTER

1517
02:07:03,283 --> 02:07:05,077
Weapons ready!

1518
02:07:05,244 --> 02:07:06,578
Halt!

1519
02:07:10,624 --> 02:07:16,171
The Paris Commune, as sole
representative of the people,

1520
02:07:16,338 --> 02:07:18,674
charges us, the Department of Paris,

1521
02:07:18,841 --> 02:07:23,178
to convey its decision to
suspend execution of the Swiss,

1522
02:07:23,345 --> 02:07:26,390
the gentlemen and others
guilty of firing on the people.

1523
02:07:26,974 --> 02:07:30,519
Those guilty will be
referred to a special tribunal

1524
02:07:30,686 --> 02:07:34,731
of judges and juries
elected by the Paris sections.

1525
02:07:34,898 --> 02:07:35,941
And the king?

1526
02:07:36,733 --> 02:07:38,861
He, too, will be tried.

1527
02:07:39,987 --> 02:07:45,075
The Assembly has proclaimed
his provincial deposition

1528
02:07:45,242 --> 02:07:48,120
pending the meeting
of a National Convention

1529
02:07:48,287 --> 02:07:52,291
elected by all Frenchmen,
irrespective of their estate.

1530
02:07:53,876 --> 02:07:57,129
The Commune declares
the country to be in peril,

1531
02:07:57,296 --> 02:08:01,425
and is prepared to take any measures.

1532
02:08:31,371 --> 02:08:35,042
My feet have never
been so cold in my life.

1533
02:08:35,709 --> 02:08:38,629
How far away is this Valmy,

1534
02:08:38,795 --> 02:08:44,635
where we're supposed to
find this Roussillon regiment?

1535
02:08:45,219 --> 02:08:48,138
It must be over there by the mill.

1536
02:08:48,305 --> 02:08:50,307
And the Prussians?

1537
02:08:50,474 --> 02:08:51,850
Just beyond.

1538
02:08:52,267 --> 02:08:54,770
- See that firing?
- Yes.

1539
02:08:54,937 --> 02:08:56,480
They're fighting for the road.

1540
02:08:57,022 --> 02:08:58,732
What if they get it?

1541
02:08:59,149 --> 02:09:01,443
The Prussians will march on Paris.

1542
02:09:01,610 --> 02:09:03,654
The end of our Revolution.

1543
02:09:04,112 --> 02:09:06,615
Bomier will have died in vain.

1544
02:09:07,241 --> 02:09:08,617
No, not in vain.

1545
02:09:09,117 --> 02:09:12,037
Even if the Prussians wipe us out today,

1546
02:09:12,204 --> 02:09:14,957
they can't wipe out what
we've given the world.

1547
02:09:15,791 --> 02:09:17,834
Before we arrived,

1548
02:09:18,460 --> 02:09:20,879
people just stared at liberty

1549
02:09:21,046 --> 02:09:25,550
like the lover forbidden
to approach his beloved.

1550
02:09:25,968 --> 02:09:28,178
Now, thanks to us,

1551
02:09:28,595 --> 02:09:31,515
the lover embraces his beloved.

1552
02:09:32,140 --> 02:09:35,018
Of course, she's not yet his mistress,

1553
02:09:35,435 --> 02:09:38,355
and he'll have a hard
time winning her over.

1554
02:09:38,897 --> 02:09:42,651
But even if they're parted,
they know each other now,

1555
02:09:43,443 --> 02:09:45,445
and one day or another
they'll be reunited.

1556
02:09:46,321 --> 02:09:49,241
Well, Javel, what do you say?

1557
02:09:49,408 --> 02:09:52,411
I say that the 20,000 slaves

1558
02:09:52,577 --> 02:09:55,330
and 5,000 traitors facing us over there

1559
02:09:55,497 --> 02:09:58,125
will never defeat 20 million free men.

1560
02:09:58,292 --> 02:09:59,835
Long live Liberty!

1561
02:11:26,213 --> 02:11:29,508
{\an1}At Valmy the French resisted every attack

1562
02:11:29,674 --> 02:11:32,177
{\an1}of the famous Prussian infantry.

1563
02:11:32,344 --> 02:11:36,098
{\an1}The great German poet Goethe
was present at their victory.

1564
02:11:36,264 --> 02:11:40,435
{\an1}His commentary will serve
as a full stop to this tale.

1565
02:11:43,063 --> 02:11:46,900
{\an1}"At that time and place a new era began

1566
02:11:47,067 --> 02:11:50,695
{\an1}for the history of the world."

1566
