in television entertainment.

"Roots," the true story
5
00:00:09,682 --> 00:00:11,819
Alex Haley uncovered
in his 12 years search

00:00:11,886 --> 00:00:14,822
across the seven generations
of his ancestry.
7
00:00:15,923 --> 00:00:17,591
After two years of production
8
00:00:17,658 --> 00:00:21,562
we present this incredible saga
in an epic motion picture.
9
00:00:21,629 --> 00:00:24,765
"Roots", the current
number one best-selling novel
10
00:00:24,832 --> 00:00:27,302
is the television event
of the year.
11

to the old South.

- We call him baby boy.

the most important man
88
00:06:29,245 --> 00:06:30,380
in the village, eh?
89
00:06:30,447 --> 00:06:32,715
Yes. That is true.
90
00:06:32,782 --> 00:06:34,083
Well, tell me which is best?
91
00:06:34,150 --> 00:06:35,618
You know about these things.
92
00:06:35,685 --> 00:06:39,890

after a person or a thing?

(Brima)
Omoro, there are no rules.
94
00:06:41,725 --> 00:06:44,060
Whether it is a person or
a thing, the child will take on
95
00:06:44,127 --> 00:06:46,564
seven of the characteristics
of that name.
96
00:06:46,630 --> 00:06:48,899

97

a man of your great learning
99
00:06:54,037 --> 00:06:56,273
will not be, uh,
offended if I say that
100
00:06:56,340 --> 00:06:59,176
you've helped me
a very small amount.
101
00:06:59,243 --> 00:07:01,011
Omoro, tell me this
102
00:07:01,078 --> 00:07:03,514
do you believe your wife
Binta's been faithful to you?
103
00:07:03,581 --> 00:07:04,548

of the child born to Binta?

Yes.

00:07:10,822 --> 00:07:11,989
If the child is truly yours
108
00:07:12,056 --> 00:07:13,792

Very impressive,
Captain Davies, very impressive.
121
00:09:02,838 --> 00:09:04,106
Thank you, Mr. Vilars.
122
00:09:04,173 --> 00:09:06,609
May I ask why
you left the Mary Rose?
123
00:09:06,675 --> 00:09:08,410
The vessel was sold
to another owner
124
00:09:08,477 --> 00:09:11,615
and that owner refused
to honor my contract, so I left.
125
00:09:15,051 --> 00:09:18,321
As simple as that?
126
00:09:18,388 --> 00:09:21,091
Either a man keeps his word
to me or he does not.
127
00:09:21,157 --> 00:09:22,659
The owners of
the Mary Rose did not.
128
00:09:22,726 --> 00:09:24,594
There was nothing further
to discuss.
129
00:09:24,661 --> 00:09:27,263
Well, captain,
your credentials are fine ones.
130
00:09:27,330 --> 00:09:28,565
The best I've seen.
131
00:09:28,632 --> 00:09:32,435
Good enough to lay
any doubts to rest.

your vessel, sir.

- 'The same.'

'She'll be seaworthy
by the end of the month.'
135
00:09:40,243 --> 00:09:41,579

'And her cargo will be?'
136
00:09:41,646 --> 00:09:44,882

138
00:09:46,384 --> 00:09:48,919
from England
to the Gambian coast

any available spices.'

Uh, what need
of the hardware, may I ask?
141
00:09:55,359 --> 00:10:00,164

will consist of slaves.

- Ah, but, mother, I'm all--

look to you, Kunta?
155
00:11:02,563 --> 00:11:05,499
Mm. Her belly grows every day.
156
00:11:05,566 --> 00:11:07,768
She'll have the kid
soon, I think.

'Maybe twins.'
159
00:11:11,039 --> 00:11:13,842
If she dropped twins,
you would find some way

00:11:16,077 --> 00:11:18,780

162
00:11:18,847 --> 00:11:21,549
- There are goats to be fed.
- Yes, mother!
163
00:11:21,616 --> 00:11:23,618
- 'Take care.'
- Yes, father. I will.
164
00:11:25,820 --> 00:11:28,656
He does a good job
with our goats, you know.
165
00:11:28,723 --> 00:11:30,226
I know.
166
00:11:30,291 --> 00:11:33,229
You might tell him so.
167
00:11:33,294 --> 00:11:36,364
He tells himself often enough.
168
00:11:36,431 --> 00:11:38,466
He is fifteen rains, Binta.
169
00:11:38,534 --> 00:11:39,869
And all boys of fifteen rains
170
00:11:39,935 --> 00:11:42,071
have a partnership
with impatience.
171
00:11:42,138 --> 00:11:43,304

172
00:11:43,372 --> 00:11:46,509

passed, Omoro?

177
00:12:10,167 --> 00:12:12,402
If you know, then how are we
178
00:12:12,469 --> 00:12:14,504
taken to manhood training?
179
00:12:14,571 --> 00:12:17,741
A boy has a hood
placed over his head.
180
00:12:17,808 --> 00:12:21,212
Then he is taken away
to the secret place of manhood.
181
00:12:21,279 --> 00:12:26,284
When he returns he knows all
the things that men must know.
182
00:12:26,349 --> 00:12:29,352
And his foto
is like that of a man's.

00:12:44,735 --> 00:12:48,506
But do you know how this
difference gets done?
188
00:12:52,010 --> 00:12:54,646
There is cutting and blood.

00:14:53,502 --> 00:14:56,506
Yes, father.
There was a leopard.
208
00:14:58,075 --> 00:14:59,743
You're not harmed?
209
00:14:59,810 --> 00:15:01,478
No, I drove it off, but..
210
00:15:01,545 --> 00:15:04,514
Drove it off?
How, how did you drive it off?

That's what I used.
213
00:15:20,164 --> 00:15:23,201
There is much
you have to learn, Kunta!
214
00:15:23,267 --> 00:15:24,736
Yes, my father.
215
00:15:27,972 --> 00:15:29,341
Well, the first thing
you must learn
216
00:15:29,408 --> 00:15:32,011
is that all men make mistakes.
217
00:15:32,077 --> 00:15:34,812
I lost a goat to a lion
when I was your age.

'Now you must learn
from this thing'
221
00:15:43,722 --> 00:15:45,290

- Yes, father.
- 'You said?'

Yes, father!
227
00:15:55,335 --> 00:15:56,869
Good.
228
00:15:56,935 --> 00:15:58,104
Then that is all
that needs to be said
229
00:15:58,171 --> 00:16:00,672

Same number of neck rings, sir.
237

Two hundred
and fifty neck rings.
238
00:16:42,184 --> 00:16:44,453
Chains and shackles
to outfit properly.
239
00:16:44,519 --> 00:16:46,388
- Yes.
- Two dozen thumbscrews.
240
00:16:46,455 --> 00:16:49,623
- Thumbscrews?
- Aye, sir.
241
00:16:49,690 --> 00:16:51,827
Are those necessary, Mr. Slater?

247

Mr. Slater,
have you ever seen a thumb
248
00:17:03,772 --> 00:17:05,874
that's been subjected
to a thumbscrew?
249
00:17:05,941 --> 00:17:08,710
Oh, yes, sir. Many a time.
250
00:17:08,777 --> 00:17:10,146
But, you see, captain
251
00:17:10,213 --> 00:17:12,281
a comely nigger bitch
is rarely purchased
252
00:17:12,348 --> 00:17:14,283
for the way her thumbs look.

'Weigh anchor
tomorrow, captain?'
258
00:17:35,506 --> 00:17:37,707
No.
259
00:17:37,773 --> 00:17:40,844
We'll stay dockside
for two more days.
260
00:17:40,911 --> 00:17:44,616
I've always preferred
to set sail on the Sabbath.
261
00:17:44,681 --> 00:17:48,886
Seems the Christian thing to do.
262
00:17:48,952 --> 00:17:51,121
Aye, captain. Whatever you say.

How would I know?
269
00:18:30,829 --> 00:18:32,064
He said that some of the boys
270
00:18:32,131 --> 00:18:33,432
have heard the sound of axes
271
00:18:33,499 --> 00:18:34,900
and hammers in the woods.
272
00:18:34,967 --> 00:18:36,636
He said some think
it's the white toubab

but do you know what I think?
274
00:18:38,471 --> 00:18:39,406
I do not.

in the secret place
where boys are taken

that's what I think.

00:18:45,278 --> 00:18:47,780
That's possible.

Do you think I'm right?
280
00:18:50,183 --> 00:18:53,353
Kunta, women do not
know of such things.
281
00:18:53,420 --> 00:18:57,257
I do not believe women should
even be speaking of such things.

You will do it

You must arrest your fears

is a danger to his family

If any are unable
to become men

'by your families,
by all in the village.'

You will never
be allowed to marry
340
00:23:00,543 --> 00:23:03,781
for the offspring of such
a marriage will be weak
341
00:23:03,848 --> 00:23:05,281
and unworthy of our people.
342
00:23:07,116 --> 00:23:10,153
I will not permit you
to be unworthy.

to make us afraid.

have to try anymore.

Who can tell me
if there was a tribal war

surrounded on three sides

what should be
the next thing done?
358
00:23:55,868 --> 00:23:57,703
Men of the Mandinka
will enclose the circle
359
00:23:57,770 --> 00:23:58,905
and surround the enemy.
360
00:23:58,971 --> 00:24:00,105
No!
361
00:24:00,171 --> 00:24:01,774
The goal of war
is not to kill
362
00:24:01,841 --> 00:24:04,744
the goal of war
is to win.

'By surrounding the enemy'

00:24:13,020 --> 00:24:14,621
'he will leave your land'
368
00:24:14,688 --> 00:24:18,090
'and there will be less blood
spilled on both sides.'
369
00:24:18,157 --> 00:24:20,827
For a warrior
of the Mandinka
370
00:24:20,894 --> 00:24:23,330
courage is not enough.
371
00:24:23,397 --> 00:24:26,900
But, sir, won't an enemy
who escapes alive
372
00:24:26,967 --> 00:24:28,235
fight you again?
373
00:24:28,302 --> 00:24:30,904
It is impossible
to kill an enemy.
374
00:24:30,972 --> 00:24:32,606
You may end a man's life.
375
00:24:32,673 --> 00:24:35,944
but his son
is now your new enemy.
376
00:24:36,010 --> 00:24:38,880
A warrior respects
another warrior
377
00:24:38,947 --> 00:24:40,648
even when he is his enemy.
378
00:24:40,715 --> 00:24:43,484
A warrior kills only
to protect his family
379
00:24:43,551 --> 00:24:46,321
or to keep
from becoming a slave.
380
00:24:46,387 --> 00:24:49,591
We believe not in death,
but in life..
381
00:24:49,657 --> 00:24:52,727
...and there is no object
more valuable
382
00:24:52,794 --> 00:24:54,395
than a man's life.
383
00:24:55,730 --> 00:24:58,867
'The way of the Mandinka
is not easy..'
384
00:25:00,069 --> 00:25:02,503
'...but it is best.'
385
00:25:03,739 --> 00:25:05,574
[waves breaking]
386
00:25:24,027 --> 00:25:25,594
[wood creaking]
387
00:25:30,066 --> 00:25:32,869
[footsteps approaching]
388
00:25:52,355 --> 00:25:54,290
[wood creaks]
389
00:26:11,143 --> 00:26:13,244
Everything alright, sir?
390
00:26:13,310 --> 00:26:15,446
Yes, Mr. Slater.
391
00:26:15,513 --> 00:26:17,849
Everything seems fine.
392
00:26:17,916 --> 00:26:19,250
I was just checking to see
393
00:26:19,316 --> 00:26:21,453
if all is in readiness
down here.
394
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,220
- Everything's ready, sir.
- Ah.
395
00:26:23,287 --> 00:26:25,624
Make no mistake
about that.
396
00:26:25,691 --> 00:26:29,194
How many men do you estimate
we'll be able to fit in here?
397
00:26:29,261 --> 00:26:32,564
Begging the captain's pardon,
sir..
398
00:26:32,631 --> 00:26:34,934
...we'll be takin' on
women as well as men.
399
00:26:36,635 --> 00:26:39,337
You see, women take up
less space than the bucks.
400
00:26:40,873 --> 00:26:43,241
What you have to estimate
in the plannin' of it all
401
00:26:43,308 --> 00:26:46,379
is how many women
as well as how many men.
402
00:26:46,446 --> 00:26:49,816
There's a certain mix
that's the most efficient
403
00:26:49,882 --> 00:26:51,951
and profitable,
you see, sir.
404
00:26:53,419 --> 00:26:55,888
How many, Mr. Slater?
405
00:26:55,955 --> 00:26:58,791
A hundred and seventy,
more or less, sir.
406
00:27:01,161 --> 00:27:03,629
Yes, sir. Thank you.
407
00:27:19,947 --> 00:27:22,716
Tell me, Mr. Slater..
408
00:27:24,418 --> 00:27:26,988
...how many voyages
like this one
409
00:27:27,055 --> 00:27:28,288
have you made?
410
00:27:28,355 --> 00:27:31,126
Oh, my, sir,
that's a poser now.
411
00:27:31,192 --> 00:27:34,629
I'd say...18.
412
00:27:34,696 --> 00:27:36,131
Eighteen!
413
00:27:36,197 --> 00:27:37,432
[chuckles]
414
00:27:37,499 --> 00:27:39,701
That's 17 more
than I have made.
415
00:27:39,768 --> 00:27:42,303
So I'd be willing to admit,
Mr. Slater, that below decks
416
00:27:42,370 --> 00:27:44,372
let's say
you're the expert.
417
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,742
That's very kind of you,
captain.
418
00:27:51,046 --> 00:27:53,849
What are they like?
419
00:27:53,916 --> 00:27:56,185
The blacks?
420
00:27:56,252 --> 00:27:58,921
Just a different
kinda breed, sir.
421
00:27:58,988 --> 00:28:01,357
You know, like a man
that'd breed a dog for huntin'
422
00:28:01,423 --> 00:28:02,691
and breed another sort of dog
423
00:28:02,758 --> 00:28:05,761
for his wife and children
to play with.
424
00:28:05,828 --> 00:28:08,664
Black breed's kinda slow
at thinkin', but strong.
425
00:28:08,731 --> 00:28:10,399
They're suited
to be slaves, sir.
426
00:28:10,466 --> 00:28:13,402
Just as you're suited to be
commander of this here vessel.
427
00:28:13,469 --> 00:28:15,806
The natural order of things,
you might say.
428
00:28:17,874 --> 00:28:19,242
Yes.
429
00:28:19,308 --> 00:28:22,344
Yes, I-I could understand that,
I suppose.
430
00:28:23,647 --> 00:28:25,682
Myself, I think
it's good for them
431
00:28:25,749 --> 00:28:27,751
'us takin' 'em like that.'
432
00:28:27,818 --> 00:28:30,120
'They're the better off
for it, sir.'
433
00:28:30,188 --> 00:28:34,058
I'm not quite sure I understand
that part, Mr. Slater.
434
00:28:34,125 --> 00:28:37,427
Well, for one thing,
there's Christianity, sir.
435
00:28:37,494 --> 00:28:40,564
'We're bringin' 'em
to a Christian land.'
436
00:28:40,630 --> 00:28:43,100
'It's got to be better for them
than that heathen Allah'
437
00:28:43,167 --> 00:28:45,468
'they got with them now.'
438
00:28:45,536 --> 00:28:48,673
That's the first thing,
second thing is
439
00:28:48,739 --> 00:28:49,907
we're probably savin' them
440
00:28:49,974 --> 00:28:52,510
from being eaten
by their own kind.
441
00:28:53,744 --> 00:28:55,413
They do that, sir, you know.
442
00:28:55,479 --> 00:28:57,682
Cannibals, all of them.
443
00:29:01,119 --> 00:29:02,821
Well..
444
00:29:02,888 --> 00:29:04,723
...as I said before,
Mr. Slater..
445
00:29:05,924 --> 00:29:08,727
...below decks,
you're the expert.
446
00:29:10,229 --> 00:29:12,363
(Slater)
'I'll get us there
and home again.'
447
00:29:12,431 --> 00:29:13,665
'Can't ask no more
than that, sir.'
448
00:29:13,732 --> 00:29:16,034
I'll keep as many alive
as can be kept alive.
449
00:29:18,136 --> 00:29:20,439
[dramatic music]
450
00:29:27,613 --> 00:29:29,648
Well, then..
451
00:29:29,716 --> 00:29:32,384
...we'll both be doing
our job, Mr. Slater.
452
00:29:33,686 --> 00:29:36,189
And surely that's
as it should be.
453
00:29:36,256 --> 00:29:39,459
Aye, aye, captain.
You leave the cargo to me.
454
00:29:39,525 --> 00:29:42,528
I speak their language,
you might say.
455
00:29:42,595 --> 00:29:43,763
Their language?
456
00:29:43,830 --> 00:29:45,199
In a manner of speakin',
sir.
457
00:29:45,266 --> 00:29:48,302
They have no proper language,
no need of it.
458
00:29:48,369 --> 00:29:51,138
'Just grunts and groans.'
459
00:29:51,205 --> 00:29:53,406
[instrumental music]
460
00:30:13,727 --> 00:30:15,562
[music continues]
461
00:30:21,903 --> 00:30:23,171
[birds chirping]
462
00:30:26,741 --> 00:30:28,810
The ability to wrestle
with skill is the ability
463
00:30:28,877 --> 00:30:30,979
to uphold the honor
of your village.
464
00:30:32,381 --> 00:30:34,649
It is a test of strength.
465
00:30:34,716 --> 00:30:36,618
The stronger you are
466
00:30:36,685 --> 00:30:39,454
the more honor
to your people.
467
00:30:39,521 --> 00:30:42,024
You can learn to shoot a bow
by watching.
468
00:30:42,091 --> 00:30:43,625
You can learn to track
in the forest
469
00:30:43,693 --> 00:30:46,662
by hearing the words
of great hunters.
470
00:30:46,729 --> 00:30:50,533
There in only one way
to learn to wrestle..
471
00:30:50,599 --> 00:30:52,768
...and that is to do it.
472
00:30:56,105 --> 00:30:58,007
'Who will be first?!'
473
00:31:08,517 --> 00:31:10,220
'Kunta Kinte.'
474
00:31:12,322 --> 00:31:13,824
Very well.
475
00:31:16,893 --> 00:31:18,128
Hey!
476
00:31:24,534 --> 00:31:26,670

[panting]
479
00:31:58,170 --> 00:31:59,972
Who will be next?
480
00:32:05,911 --> 00:32:08,914
[instrumental music]

[grunting]
483
00:32:29,470 --> 00:32:31,938
And now,
who will be next?
484
00:32:33,606 --> 00:32:35,276
[groans]
485
00:32:35,342 --> 00:32:36,676

00:32:40,314 --> 00:32:41,748
[all groaning]
487
00:32:44,718 --> 00:32:47,354
I don't think I'm strong
or brave enough to be a man.
488
00:32:47,421 --> 00:32:50,391
Oh, we're all strong enough.
489
00:32:50,458 --> 00:32:52,494
We will all be men.
490
00:32:52,561 --> 00:32:54,128
You will see.
491
00:32:59,167 --> 00:33:00,801
Kunta Kinte!
492
00:33:01,702 --> 00:33:03,271
[bird cawing]
493
00:33:19,254 --> 00:33:21,056
[birds chirping]
494
00:33:43,079 --> 00:33:46,483
Kunta Kinte,
a panther has courage
495
00:33:46,550 --> 00:33:48,285
so does a warthog.
496
00:33:48,352 --> 00:33:51,421
'Which kind of courage
should a man have?'
497
00:33:51,488 --> 00:33:53,924
The best kind.
498
00:33:53,991 --> 00:33:57,327
If it is for certain
that you are not yet a man
499
00:33:57,394 --> 00:33:59,263
and that is for certain
500
00:33:59,329 --> 00:34:03,133
then it is even more certain
that you are not a philosopher.
501
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,703
'"The best kind"
is not an answer, Kunta Kinte.'
502
00:34:06,770 --> 00:34:09,541
Well, uh,
a warthog's courage, then.
503
00:34:09,607 --> 00:34:11,008
(Wrestler)
'Why?'
504
00:34:11,074 --> 00:34:14,145
Well, a warthog never retreats,
he never gives up.
505
00:34:14,212 --> 00:34:17,348
And all the hunters admire
that warthog's courage.
506
00:34:17,415 --> 00:34:18,682
That's right.
507
00:34:18,749 --> 00:34:21,052
They all say what a brave animal
that warthog is.
508
00:34:21,119 --> 00:34:22,954
(Kunta)
'That's right.'
509
00:34:23,021 --> 00:34:26,958
And all the hunters usually
end up killing that warthog.
510
00:34:27,025 --> 00:34:30,328
They all usually end up
eating that brave warthog.
511
00:34:32,163 --> 00:34:36,268
You think I should have given up
today when we were wrestling?
512
00:34:36,335 --> 00:34:38,237
We were not wrestling.
513
00:34:38,304 --> 00:34:39,672
I was wrestling.
514
00:34:39,737 --> 00:34:43,741
You were charging
and flying and landing.
515
00:34:43,808 --> 00:34:46,278
You were the warthog,
Kunta Kinte.
516
00:34:48,347 --> 00:34:51,016
Thank you for teaching me
these things.
517
00:34:51,083 --> 00:34:53,986
- You may go.
- Thank you.
518
00:34:54,053 --> 00:34:56,155
You have already thanked me.
519
00:34:56,222 --> 00:34:57,923
Oh, yes, sir.
520
00:35:03,430 --> 00:35:05,532
Kunta Kinte.
521
00:35:05,599 --> 00:35:07,534
I can teach you
many things
522
00:35:07,601 --> 00:35:10,003
but I cannot teach you courage.
523
00:35:10,070 --> 00:35:12,539
Not even a warthog's courage.
524
00:35:12,606 --> 00:35:16,309
That is something you will take
with you wherever you go.
525
00:35:29,856 --> 00:35:32,093
- What did he say?
- Huh?
526
00:35:32,159 --> 00:35:33,728
Oh, he just wanted me
to tell him
527
00:35:33,793 --> 00:35:35,863
a few things
about wrestling.
528
00:35:39,500 --> 00:35:41,503
Hey! Ho! Hey, wait!
529
00:35:41,570 --> 00:35:43,472
[all laughing]

(Slater)
'Where away?'

00:35:59,955 --> 00:36:03,191
(Grimes)
'Three points
off the port bow, sir!'
533
00:36:04,793 --> 00:36:06,529
Congratulations, sir.
534
00:36:06,596 --> 00:36:08,464
Thank you, Mr. Slater.
535
00:36:15,772 --> 00:36:17,507

[monkey chirps]
537
00:36:28,251 --> 00:36:30,721
(Kintango)
Kunta Kinte..
538
00:36:30,788 --> 00:36:32,989
...here is your task.
539
00:36:33,056 --> 00:36:35,559
You are to leave this camp
540
00:36:35,626 --> 00:36:37,494
and catch a bird.
541
00:36:37,561 --> 00:36:40,297
Not kill the bird,
mind you..
542
00:36:40,364 --> 00:36:42,032
...but catch it
543
00:36:42,099 --> 00:36:45,369

Well, I'm in manhood training
to become a Mandinka warrior

561

without first giving your name?
563
00:38:43,091 --> 00:38:46,094

I am Kadi Touray.

I am traveling with my family
to the village of Kerawong.

- Is it far?
- Kadi Touray!
568
00:38:56,071 --> 00:38:57,607
I have been assigned
by my Kintango
569
00:38:57,674 --> 00:39:00,175
to catch a bird without
the use of a weapon and there..
570

my midday meal
571
00:39:02,712 --> 00:39:04,179
and not bother
to put it back
572
00:39:04,247 --> 00:39:06,282
or apologize
to my daughter?
573
00:39:08,051 --> 00:39:11,120
No, I-I have been
assigned to..
574
00:39:18,528 --> 00:39:20,764
Kunta Kinte,
my daughter Fanta.
575

- Peace to you, Fanta.
- Peace to you, Kunta Kinte.

00:39:24,568 --> 00:39:28,873
My daughter Fanta, that you
were going to apologize to.
577
00:39:28,939 --> 00:39:32,409
I apologize for not apologizing
louder when you were hitting me!
578
00:39:37,214 --> 00:39:39,216
And it's one day
to Kerawong.

I did not forget.
606

Then you decided
it would be better
607
00:44:11,867 --> 00:44:13,468
to disobey
those instructions and--
608
00:44:13,536 --> 00:44:15,871
I saw white men.

not a bit wiser, Mr. Gardner.
616
00:44:58,883 --> 00:45:00,517
Like you to meet
Captain Davies.
617
00:45:00,584 --> 00:45:02,553
Captain Davies, sir,
this here's Mr. Gardner.
618
00:45:02,620 --> 00:45:04,589
Did you bring any rum?
619
00:45:06,657 --> 00:45:08,459
Yes.
620
00:45:12,331 --> 00:45:13,931
Fine, let's talk.
621
00:45:30,148 --> 00:45:33,218

Captain Davies.

00:45:33,286 --> 00:45:35,387
A welcome to Africa,
you understand.
623
00:45:35,454 --> 00:45:37,823
Thank you, Mr. Gardner.
Very kind of you.
624
00:45:41,660 --> 00:45:44,097
Now then, captain.
625
00:45:44,163 --> 00:45:46,299
Can you give me some idea
as to how many blacks
626
00:45:46,366 --> 00:45:48,134
your vessel will hold?
627
00:45:50,603 --> 00:45:52,572
One hundred and seventy,
Mr. Gardner.

00:45:56,509 --> 00:45:57,977
A hundred and seventy.
630
00:45:58,044 --> 00:45:59,412
You people seem to think
this is the easiest thing
631
00:45:59,479 --> 00:46:00,880
in the world to do.
632
00:46:00,947 --> 00:46:02,182

'If I can't capture
enough blacks'

00:46:10,490 --> 00:46:12,993
I gotta buy them
from their own chiefs
637
00:46:13,060 --> 00:46:14,895
and they bring a tidy sum
per head these days.
638
00:46:14,962 --> 00:46:18,632
Mr. Gardner, I have neither
the time nor the temperament
639
00:46:18,699 --> 00:46:21,502
to sit here through
your price raising maneuvers.

'Monies will be discussed
at a later date.'
641
00:46:23,837 --> 00:46:27,541
The question now is
can you capture or buy
642
00:46:27,608 --> 00:46:29,944
one hundred and seventy
healthy blacks
643
00:46:30,011 --> 00:46:32,780

of the Lord Ligonier?

00:46:37,419 --> 00:46:40,055
I'll capture some,
I'll buy some.

I'll deliver.

Never be alone
when you can help it.

Never be out at night
when you can help it.
658
00:47:13,856 --> 00:47:16,259
And day or night,
if you are alone
659
00:47:16,326 --> 00:47:19,695
keep away from
any high weeds or bushes.
660
00:47:19,762 --> 00:47:22,899
And if ever you see much smoke
away from any village
661
00:47:22,966 --> 00:47:24,835
it is probably
the white man's cooking fires
662
00:47:24,901 --> 00:47:26,937
which are always too big.

close to where he has been'

'It is a smell
like a wet chicken.'
666
00:47:35,946 --> 00:47:38,648
And most importantly,
remember that

00:47:38,715 --> 00:47:41,119
Kunta Kinte saw the white man
668
00:47:41,185 --> 00:47:43,287

why was he on the manifest?

Get those wenches
up and forward!

'Answer me!'

01:22:14,676 --> 01:22:17,679
Get 'em up and dancing!

[instrumental music]
1091
01:22:21,284 --> 01:22:23,352
I want 'em well danced!

[instrumental music]
1093
01:22:25,788 --> 01:22:28,024
I want them exercised!
1094
01:22:30,293 --> 01:22:32,328
'Ju-ump!'
1095
01:22:32,395 --> 01:22:34,096
'Ju-u-ump!'
1096
01:22:35,432 --> 01:22:37,200
Get 'em up!
1097

[music continues]

01:23:03,126 --> 01:23:05,363
- Come on, move it!
- All of you, now!
1100
01:23:05,430 --> 01:23:07,931
- Keep jumping.
- Higher, higher!
1101
01:23:07,998 --> 01:23:10,235

[chanting in foreign language]
1105
01:23:44,436 --> 01:23:47,339
What is it that they're
saying there, Mr. Slater?
1106
01:23:47,407 --> 01:23:50,042
How would a white man
know that, sir?
1107
01:23:50,109 --> 01:23:53,145
'African mumbo jumbo is what
it is, more than likely.'
1108
01:23:53,213 --> 01:23:55,515
No, Mr. Slater,
I don't understand
1109
01:23:55,582 --> 01:23:56,882
a syllable of their language.
1110
01:23:56,949 --> 01:23:57,950
But I believe I can guess
1111
01:23:58,018 --> 01:23:59,953
what they're saying down there.
1112
01:24:00,020 --> 01:24:01,621
What might that be, sir?
1113
01:24:01,688 --> 01:24:04,891
They're telling us
to sleep lightly, Mr. Slater.
1114
01:24:06,059 --> 01:24:07,027
But then I've not slept well
1115
01:24:07,093 --> 01:24:09,963
since this voyage began.
1116
01:24:10,030 --> 01:24:12,433
I know the wherefore of that,
I believe, sir.
1117
01:24:15,703 --> 01:24:18,104
Possibly, Mr. Slater.
Possibly you do.
1118
01:24:18,172 --> 01:24:20,541

[indistinct yelling]
1127
01:25:49,601 --> 01:25:50,934
Kunta.
1128
01:25:54,472 --> 01:25:55,607
Kunta?
1129
01:25:58,041 --> 01:25:59,943
'Kunta Kinte?'
1130
01:26:03,883 --> 01:26:05,617
You do not eat?
1131
01:26:07,285 --> 01:26:10,455
When I eat the white man food,
my stomach comes up.
1132
01:26:10,522 --> 01:26:13,592
So does mine.
But eat the food, Kunta.
1133
01:26:15,260 --> 01:26:18,697
Listen to me. Listen carefully.
1134
01:26:18,764 --> 01:26:19,998
You are a warrior.
1135
01:26:20,064 --> 01:26:21,267
And a warrior must eat
1136
01:26:21,333 --> 01:26:22,868
because he must be strong
1137
01:26:22,934 --> 01:26:24,804
to kill his enemy.
1138
01:26:24,870 --> 01:26:27,440
So eat the white man's food.
1139
01:26:27,506 --> 01:26:29,175
Live, Kunta.
1140
01:26:29,241 --> 01:26:31,177
Live and be strong!
1141
01:26:31,243 --> 01:26:34,947
Be strong to kill the white man!

we got a dead one over here!'

- 'Another one?'
- 'Yeah.'
1149

'Yeah, he's dead, alright.'
1150
01:27:38,480 --> 01:27:40,082

If only..

01:29:18,986 --> 01:29:21,855
...you could..
1161
01:29:23,657 --> 01:29:25,592
...know..
1162
01:29:25,659 --> 01:29:29,496
...how much I regret
having taken this command.
1163
01:29:30,497 --> 01:29:32,366
Not only because it forces me
1164
01:29:32,432 --> 01:29:36,203
to be apart from you
and the children..
1165
01:29:36,269 --> 01:29:38,438
...but because it..

- 'Mr. Slater, sir.'

01:29:53,021 --> 01:29:55,456
(Slater)
'Come with something
for your chill.'
1170
01:29:58,459 --> 01:30:00,228
Come in, Mr. Slater.

01:30:00,294 --> 01:30:01,629
[door opens]
1172
01:30:03,865 --> 01:30:05,100
Here you are, captain.

[woman sobbing]
1174
01:30:11,040 --> 01:30:13,374
Mr. Slater..
1175
01:30:13,441 --> 01:30:16,945
...I've told you my views
on fornication.
1176
01:30:17,012 --> 01:30:19,313
Yes, sir, you did. Right enough.
1177
01:30:19,381 --> 01:30:21,717
Just brought her
as a belly-warmer, sir.
1178
01:30:21,784 --> 01:30:22,985
'Little flesh
to take the chill'
1179
01:30:23,052 --> 01:30:25,354
off them cold sheets.
1180
01:30:25,421 --> 01:30:26,422
Didn't figure
it'd be any problem
1181
01:30:26,488 --> 01:30:27,856
for a highborn, Christian
1182
01:30:27,923 --> 01:30:29,758
white man like you, sir.
1183
01:30:35,799 --> 01:30:38,601
I'll be by to fetch her
in the morning, captain.
1184
01:30:38,668 --> 01:30:39,936
Sleep well.

I do not approve of fornication.

My name is Thomas.

'It's my Christian name.'
1190
01:31:33,290 --> 01:31:34,826
Well, now..
1191
01:31:36,595 --> 01:31:38,730
What should I call you?
1192
01:31:44,469 --> 01:31:46,371
Of course.
1193
01:31:50,342 --> 01:31:53,278
You don't understand
anything I say, do you?
1194
01:32:02,021 --> 01:32:03,389
Oh.
1195
01:32:03,456 --> 01:32:06,026
Merciful heaven!
1196
01:32:19,673 --> 01:32:21,374
(Wrestler)
'Kunta.'
1197
01:32:22,676 --> 01:32:23,977
'Kunta?'
1198
01:32:31,518 --> 01:32:33,654
Wrestler, I was dreaming.
1199
01:32:35,455 --> 01:32:37,892
I dreamed I was hunting.
1200
01:32:37,959 --> 01:32:41,196
Running faster than I ever
ran before, spear in my hand.
1201
01:32:41,262 --> 01:32:42,429
Kunta, listen to me--
1202
01:32:42,496 --> 01:32:45,332
I was hunting
a great, huge bird
1203
01:32:45,400 --> 01:32:48,803
whose wings stretched from
one river bank to the other.
1204
01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:54,109
It turned and flew towards me..
1205
01:32:54,176 --> 01:32:57,313
...and I saw it was all white.
1206
01:32:57,378 --> 01:32:59,614
'All white.'
1207
01:32:59,681 --> 01:33:03,351
Its great flapping wings
swallowed me up.
1208
01:33:04,286 --> 01:33:06,521
And choked me.
1209
01:33:09,058 --> 01:33:11,961
They choked me.
1210
01:33:16,031 --> 01:33:18,068
I opened my eyes..
1211
01:33:19,202 --> 01:33:21,137
...and I was here..
1212
01:33:22,538 --> 01:33:26,675
...in the belly
of that terrible bird.
1213
01:33:29,779 --> 01:33:34,484
We will kill the white man,
and we will go home.
1214
01:33:34,551 --> 01:33:36,253
It's in Allah's hands.
1215
01:33:36,320 --> 01:33:38,655
It is in our hands!
1216
01:33:38,722 --> 01:33:41,391
Allah made us warriors.
1217
01:33:41,458 --> 01:33:43,760
Mandinka warriors.
1218
01:33:43,827 --> 01:33:47,031
When we were up in the sun,
I counted the white man.
1219
01:33:47,098 --> 01:33:50,034
I saw 20 with the long knives
and the killing sticks
1220
01:33:50,101 --> 01:33:51,836
that make smoke and fire.
1221
01:33:51,903 --> 01:33:54,071
'Ten more are in the long poles'
1222
01:33:54,138 --> 01:33:56,641
pulling the ropes
and great cloths.
1223
01:33:56,707 --> 01:33:59,844
And the chief
who stands and watches.
1224
01:33:59,911 --> 01:34:03,248
There are 40 of us who are
taken up out of here together.
1225
01:34:03,315 --> 01:34:04,882
I have listened.
1226
01:34:04,949 --> 01:34:07,818
Three more times the Wolof
beats the drums.
1227
01:34:07,885 --> 01:34:11,722
That means there are 160 people.
1228
01:34:11,789 --> 01:34:14,793
- Some are women.
- But at least 100 are men.
1229
01:34:14,860 --> 01:34:17,528
And with 100 warriors, a chief
could raid a large village
1230
01:34:17,595 --> 01:34:19,497
and carry off all the cattle.
1231
01:34:19,564 --> 01:34:21,934
With chains on their feet?
1232
01:34:22,901 --> 01:34:24,736
You have seen the pieceof iron
1233
01:34:24,803 --> 01:34:26,705
they put it in the hole
and turn
1234
01:34:26,772 --> 01:34:28,874
and the ankle-irons open?
1235
01:34:28,941 --> 01:34:31,144
One of them wears it
around his neck.
1236
01:34:32,544 --> 01:34:34,147
I could get it.
1237
01:34:34,213 --> 01:34:36,615
If we had a plan.
1238
01:34:36,682 --> 01:34:40,320
If we had a signal
when we could all move.
1239
01:34:40,386 --> 01:34:42,355
But we're different men.
1240
01:34:42,422 --> 01:34:45,825
We can't even talk to each
other. We're different tribes!
1241
01:34:45,892 --> 01:34:48,628
Men chained together
are brothers.
1242
01:34:48,695 --> 01:34:51,497
We are all one village.
1243
01:34:51,564 --> 01:34:54,000
Who cannot speak the same words.
1244
01:34:57,304 --> 01:34:59,472
Who is Mandinka?
1245
01:35:00,606 --> 01:35:03,576
'Who speaks the language
of the Mandinka?'
1246
01:35:03,643 --> 01:35:05,346
I'm Okiyu the wrestler
1247
01:35:05,412 --> 01:35:07,414
from the village of Jayhutswa.
1248
01:35:07,480 --> 01:35:09,550
Who is Mandinka?
1249
01:35:09,616 --> 01:35:10,985
(slave #1)
'I am Mandinka.'
1250
01:35:11,051 --> 01:35:14,621
'I'm Buyao from
the village of Guffure.'
1251
01:35:14,688 --> 01:35:17,459
(slave #2)
'Falilu from Uboa.'
1252
01:35:17,524 --> 01:35:20,161
(slave #3)
'Odibu from the Fatabe village.'
1253
01:35:20,228 --> 01:35:21,829
Listen, Mandinka.
1254
01:35:21,895 --> 01:35:25,266
Those who speak other words,
words of the Wolof
1255
01:35:25,333 --> 01:35:28,370
of the Serere, the Fulani
1256
01:35:28,436 --> 01:35:31,406
talk to the man chained to you.
1257
01:35:31,473 --> 01:35:33,541
Teach him your words.
1258
01:35:33,608 --> 01:35:35,478
Learn his.
1259
01:35:35,543 --> 01:35:39,714
We will be one village.
1260
01:35:39,781 --> 01:35:42,817
'We will destroy our enemies.'
1261
01:35:42,884 --> 01:35:47,456
And we will be one village.
1262
01:35:47,522 --> 01:35:49,425
