00:12:09,458 --> 00:12:10,750
[reporters clamoring]
185
00:12:16,625 --> 00:12:20,958
We welcome the forces
of the United Nations here with open arms
186
00:12:21,042 --> 00:12:22,792
but with some confusion.
187
00:12:24,083 --> 00:12:26,583
We don't know why you are here
in Africa...
188
00:12:27,500 --> 00:12:30,250
as we are quite capable
of looking after ourselves.
189
00:12:31,458 --> 00:12:34,083
However, we will be thoughtful hosts.
190
00:12:34,958 --> 00:12:36,833
Unless you come here to start trouble,
191
00:12:36,917 --> 00:12:37,958
in which case
192
00:12:38,042 --> 00:12:39,917
you will force us to tutor you
193
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,667
on how things are done here in the Congo.
194
00:12:44,208 --> 00:12:47,083
-[reporter] General Tshombe!
-Gentlemen, that's it. We're done.
195
00:12:48,083 --> 00:12:50,708
[Hammarskjöld]
I had a call from Khrushchev earlier.
196
00:12:50,792 --> 00:12:54,000
He reminded me
of the UN's refusal to send in troops
197
00:12:54,083 --> 00:12:55,542
when Lumumba asked me to.
198
00:12:57,250 --> 00:13:01,042
It's amazing how good an atheist is
in inflicting guilt.
199
00:13:01,125 --> 00:13:02,250
[chuckles]
200
00:13:03,292 --> 00:13:05,958
Meanwhile,
they're building a wall in Berlin.
201
00:13:07,417 --> 00:13:08,500
I know.
202
00:13:08,583 --> 00:13:09,917
Kennedy called.
203
00:13:11,375 --> 00:13:13,708
[O'Brien] What did the Sun King of Camelot
have to say?
204
00:13:13,792 --> 00:13:17,417
[Hammarskjöld] We can't do anything
in Berlin, Vietnam or Cuba,
205
00:13:17,500 --> 00:13:19,333
but we can defuse the Congo.
206
00:13:21,167 --> 00:13:22,208
And I want you to go.
207
00:13:23,042 --> 00:13:25,167
Put an end to General Tshombe's antics.
208
00:13:25,250 --> 00:13:27,333
-Send him a message.
-Excuse me?
209
00:13:27,417 --> 00:13:29,792
I want you to be our man on the ground.
210
00:13:29,875 --> 00:13:31,500
But this thing, this...
211
00:13:32,917 --> 00:13:34,667
could lead to another world war.
212
00:13:34,750 --> 00:13:36,750
Yes, and everybody sees that.
213
00:13:37,333 --> 00:13:39,417
So the man who stops it
214
00:13:39,500 --> 00:13:41,167
will get a lot of credit.
215
00:13:42,458 --> 00:13:43,500
We'll make up a plan.
216
00:13:44,375 --> 00:13:45,417
What kind of plan?
217
00:13:46,375 --> 00:13:48,042
One with a lot of moving parts
218
00:13:48,125 --> 00:13:51,375
that requires a man astute
and hard-headed enough to pull it off.
219
00:13:52,583 --> 00:13:54,750
We each have our part to play in history.
220
00:13:56,042 --> 00:13:58,292
Yours is happening right now, Conor.
221
00:14:02,042 --> 00:14:03,208
I believe I can...
222
00:14:04,625 --> 00:14:06,375
accomplish the mission, sir.
223
00:14:06,458 --> 00:14:07,500
Good, Conor.
224
00:14:09,208 --> 00:14:10,333
Good.
225
00:14:11,875 --> 00:14:13,125
[in French] The United Nations
226
00:14:13,208 --> 00:14:16,500
are going to send
more peacekeeping troops,
227
00:14:16,583 --> 00:14:19,792
so I need your assistance,
General de Gaulle.
228
00:14:19,875 --> 00:14:21,625
And what will you give in return?
229
00:14:22,208 --> 00:14:27,417
It's in all our interests that the mining
companies continue their operations.
230
00:14:27,958 --> 00:14:29,375
My old rival
231
00:14:29,458 --> 00:14:32,458
would have nationalized
everything you own.
232
00:14:32,542 --> 00:14:35,458
If I lose power, it might still happen.
233
00:14:35,542 --> 00:14:38,458
Your American friends wouldn't like that.
234
00:14:38,542 --> 00:14:42,125
Okay, I will send you
1,000 of our best former legionnaires.
235
00:14:42,208 --> 00:14:45,167
The mining companies
will hire them as security officers,
236
00:14:45,250 --> 00:14:46,667
but you will give the orders.
237
00:14:47,958 --> 00:14:49,667
Katanga thanks you for that.
238
00:14:49,750 --> 00:14:52,167
Tell Katanga it's a pleasure.
239
00:15:14,375 --> 00:15:15,625
[villagers cheering]
240
00:15:43,667 --> 00:15:45,625
[Prendergast]
All right, lads. Everybody out.
241
00:15:45,708 --> 00:15:46,542
[chattering]
242
00:15:46,625 --> 00:15:49,458
[soldier] Boys, you're supposed
to rehydrate. It will be fine.
243
00:15:51,417 --> 00:15:52,458
[Gorman] Lads.
244
00:15:52,542 --> 00:15:53,583
Picture.
245
00:15:53,667 --> 00:15:54,708
[all cheer]
246
00:15:55,333 --> 00:15:56,333
Cheese!
247
00:15:56,833 --> 00:15:58,000
[Gorman] You're gorgeous.
248
00:16:00,375 --> 00:16:02,708
[Prendergast] Calling it a compound
is a joke.
249
00:16:03,250 --> 00:16:06,708
We've got exposure on three approaches.
Overlooked from the south.
250
00:16:08,208 --> 00:16:10,000
And there's a road splitting it in two.
251
00:16:11,458 --> 00:16:12,583
We're wide open.
252
00:16:13,292 --> 00:16:14,333
Okay.
253
00:16:17,458 --> 00:16:18,583
Do we have shovels?
254
00:16:19,875 --> 00:16:20,917
We do.
255
00:16:21,458 --> 00:16:23,458
Have the men up for drill at 0600.
256
00:16:24,083 --> 00:16:25,125
Yes, sir.
257
00:16:48,917 --> 00:16:50,667
[McEntee] Dr O'Brien, how was your flight?
258
00:16:50,750 --> 00:16:52,458
Very pleasant, thank you, General.
259
00:16:53,417 --> 00:16:54,958
We have a lot to talk about.
260
00:16:55,042 --> 00:16:57,083
We do. May I introduce General Raja?
261
00:16:57,792 --> 00:16:59,833
-Welcome to the Congo, sir.
-Good to meet you.
262
00:16:59,917 --> 00:17:02,708
[O'Brien] Tshombe has crossed the line.
We need to stop him.
263
00:17:02,792 --> 00:17:04,667
We're beyond the point of no return.
264
00:17:05,250 --> 00:17:09,000
You are therefore authorized to implement
Operation Morthor immediately.
265
00:17:09,083 --> 00:17:11,667
I have decided
we should take aggressive action
266
00:17:11,750 --> 00:17:14,333
to reclaim key buildings held by Tshombe.
267
00:17:14,417 --> 00:17:16,375
There's a time for talking,
268
00:17:16,458 --> 00:17:17,625
a time for being tough.
269
00:17:18,667 --> 00:17:19,708
This is the latter.
270
00:17:20,708 --> 00:17:22,167
Your soldiers have the distinction
271
00:17:22,250 --> 00:17:25,042
of being the only troops
with any real military experience.
272
00:17:27,333 --> 00:17:29,750
The others will be looking to them
to set an example.
273
00:17:31,833 --> 00:17:33,667
Show them how decisive you can be.
274
00:18:00,292 --> 00:18:01,500
This place is amazing.
275
00:18:05,250 --> 00:18:06,667
[soldier] This is some job.
276
00:18:11,250 --> 00:18:13,667
-Yahoo!
-[laughter]
277
00:18:14,250 --> 00:18:17,333
[Cooley] Wakey-wakey!
Rise and shine, boys! Whoo!
278
00:18:17,417 --> 00:18:19,125
Up and at 'em! Come on!
279
00:18:19,750 --> 00:18:20,792
Get off, Cooley, will ya?
280
00:18:28,417 --> 00:18:29,833
[soldier] Keep digging.
281
00:18:35,458 --> 00:18:36,708
[hissing]
282
00:18:36,792 --> 00:18:39,542
Fuck! Fuck! Jesus! Oh, Christ!
283
00:18:39,625 --> 00:18:40,958
[Quinlan] What? What?
284
00:18:41,042 --> 00:18:43,208
[Gorman] It's a fucking snake!
285
00:18:43,292 --> 00:18:44,333
[hisses]
286
00:18:44,417 --> 00:18:45,458
[soldier] Snake!
287
00:18:46,250 --> 00:18:47,750
[laughter]
288
00:18:48,375 --> 00:18:51,292
These ones aren't poisonous.
Did you not read the info packs?
289
00:18:51,375 --> 00:18:54,250
With all due respect, boss,
are you sure they're not poisonous?
290
00:19:01,500 --> 00:19:03,042
-[Quinlan] Get out.
-Look out!
291
00:19:04,083 --> 00:19:05,167
Out, you fuckers!
292
00:19:06,250 --> 00:19:07,083
St Patrick himself.
293
00:19:07,167 --> 00:19:08,042
[laughter]
294
00:19:11,875 --> 00:19:13,042
[soldier] Back to it.
295
00:19:47,875 --> 00:19:49,708
[Prendergast]
Weapons are state of the art.
296
00:19:50,583 --> 00:19:51,917
For World War II, anyway.
297
00:19:54,250 --> 00:19:56,292
These things... plastic.
298
00:19:56,375 --> 00:19:57,417
Useless.
299
00:19:58,833 --> 00:20:02,083
CQMS says we have food provisions,
enough for two days.
300
00:20:02,167 --> 00:20:05,583
The men have their own rations, but mostly
biscuits you wouldn't feed to your dog.
301
00:20:11,083 --> 00:20:12,333
Time to hunt and gather.
302
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,125
Let's go.
303
00:20:14,208 --> 00:20:15,250
Yes, sir.
304
00:20:35,042 --> 00:20:36,083
[man] How can I help you?
305
00:20:37,583 --> 00:20:39,708
I'll take as much
as that truck outside can carry.
306
00:20:39,792 --> 00:20:40,833
Yes, sir.
307
00:20:41,917 --> 00:20:43,458
Where's the best bar in town?
308
00:20:43,542 --> 00:20:44,708
At the end of the street.
309
00:20:46,708 --> 00:20:49,458
I don't think you will find
any of the bars here to your liking.
310
00:20:52,250 --> 00:20:53,583
Why is that?
311
00:20:53,667 --> 00:20:54,958
I don't mean to be rude,
312
00:20:55,042 --> 00:20:57,625
but you do know
that you're not welcome here, don't you?
313
00:21:00,417 --> 00:21:01,583
I'll take one of these.
314
00:21:03,458 --> 00:21:05,792
The people around here
are not particularly happy
315
00:21:05,875 --> 00:21:07,458
with how things are working out.
316
00:21:07,542 --> 00:21:09,708
They didn't like Lumumba taking over.
317
00:21:10,792 --> 00:21:12,583
But he was elected by the people.
318
00:21:12,667 --> 00:21:15,667
Who didn't put a lot of thought
into what would happen to the mines
319
00:21:15,750 --> 00:21:17,083
when he took over.
320
00:21:17,167 --> 00:21:19,125
Nationalizing the minerals,
321
00:21:19,208 --> 00:21:20,958
throwing out the mining companies.
322
00:21:21,458 --> 00:21:22,958
What did he expect to happen?
323
00:21:24,667 --> 00:21:26,750
I don't suppose
he expected to be assassinated.
324
00:21:27,458 --> 00:21:28,875
I love this country,
325
00:21:28,958 --> 00:21:30,375
but you don't tell the companies
326
00:21:30,458 --> 00:21:32,417
that have been making money here
for decades
327
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:34,250
that they're suddenly out of business.
328
00:21:35,708 --> 00:21:37,542
I didn't tell them anything, madame,
but...
329
00:21:38,542 --> 00:21:40,208
sorry that we're not welcome here.
330
00:21:40,708 --> 00:21:42,208
Thank you for your time.
331
00:21:49,125 --> 00:21:50,167
Let's get a drink.
332
00:21:54,542 --> 00:21:55,958
[laughter and chattering]
333
00:21:57,750 --> 00:21:58,833
[chattering stops]
334
00:22:08,542 --> 00:22:09,542
[Quinlan] Three beers.
335
00:22:10,917 --> 00:22:12,542
[Faulques] Won't you have a real drink?
336
00:22:18,750 --> 00:22:19,792
What would that be?
337
00:22:22,292 --> 00:22:23,333
French cognac.
338
00:22:25,833 --> 00:22:27,375
Perhaps you'll have one with me?
339
00:23:03,583 --> 00:23:05,042
Why are you here, Commandant?
340
00:23:05,833 --> 00:23:08,292
To protect the locals
from a man who stole power
341
00:23:08,375 --> 00:23:10,667
from the legitimately elected
prime minister.
342
00:23:12,875 --> 00:23:13,917
Why are you here?
343
00:23:14,833 --> 00:23:17,208
To protect the interest of the mines.
344
00:23:18,875 --> 00:23:20,875
Plus Paris is freezing this time of year.
345
00:23:24,917 --> 00:23:25,958
To Paris.
346
00:23:26,833 --> 00:23:27,875
To Paris.
347
00:23:36,250 --> 00:23:39,417
These people you're here to protect...
348
00:23:41,333 --> 00:23:43,000
are you sure they want you?
349
00:23:43,083 --> 00:23:44,125
I have my doubts.
350
00:23:44,958 --> 00:23:46,208
But I also have my orders.
351
00:23:47,542 --> 00:23:48,667
You follow all orders?
352
00:23:50,708 --> 00:23:51,750
I'm a soldier.
353
00:23:52,333 --> 00:23:53,375
That's how it's done.
354
00:23:56,208 --> 00:23:59,375
I looked up the Irish army
to see how many wars they have been in.
355
00:24:01,167 --> 00:24:02,333
You know what I found?
356
00:24:04,583 --> 00:24:05,667
None.
357
00:24:05,750 --> 00:24:07,042
[onlookers chuckling]
358
00:24:10,125 --> 00:24:11,583
And as for you, Commandant...
359
00:24:12,708 --> 00:24:14,208
you have never been in battle.
360
00:24:19,417 --> 00:24:20,667
I'm not sure about that.
361
00:24:21,167 --> 00:24:22,833

00:37:15,833 --> 00:37:17,833
[soldier] Weapons ready!
Check your ammo!
544
00:37:24,875 --> 00:37:25,917
[soldier] Fire!
545
00:37:27,458 --> 00:37:29,417
[Prendergast] I want fire superiority!
546
00:37:29,500 --> 00:37:34,250
-Corporal, get the Bren up front, now!
-[soldier] Mortar men, man your posts!
547
00:37:35,542 --> 00:37:38,083
-Open fire!
-Hold down the left flank!
548
00:37:38,167 --> 00:37:40,292
Sniper! Catch me up.
549
00:37:40,875 --> 00:37:42,958
Fuckers came out of nowhere
and started shooting!
550
00:37:44,292 --> 00:37:45,542
You're caught up, boss.
551
00:38:07,625 --> 00:38:08,958
Move, move, move!
552
00:38:21,167 --> 00:38:22,417
[soldier] Man your trenches!
553
00:38:24,500 --> 00:38:25,500
Sir.
554
00:38:26,250 --> 00:38:28,083
They'll approach from high ground,
south.
555
00:38:28,167 --> 00:38:30,333
Get ten of our best out there
to refuse the flank.
556
00:38:30,417 --> 00:38:32,333
[Prendergast] The south flank? Sure, sir?
557
00:38:32,417 --> 00:38:33,458
Yes. Now, go!
558
00:38:34,958 --> 00:38:37,500
Yes, sir. Sniper, on me.
559
00:38:41,250 --> 00:38:43,875
Reidy, follow me! Now!
560
00:38:53,083 --> 00:38:54,875
Go now!
561
00:39:05,917 --> 00:39:07,125
[cries out]
562
00:39:09,500 --> 00:39:10,583
[Gorman yelling]
563
00:39:11,375 --> 00:39:14,167
[Hegarty] Let me look at you.
Get the Bren back up! Let me look!
564
00:39:15,125 --> 00:39:16,750
It's a scratch. You'll be fine.
565
00:39:17,542 --> 00:39:19,250
You'll be fine. You'll be fine.
566
00:39:19,333 --> 00:39:20,500
You're fine, all right?
567
00:39:20,583 --> 00:39:22,583
-I'm fine.
-Get back up. Get back up.
568
00:39:22,667 --> 00:39:24,167
Charlie Alpha Juliet to Control.
569
00:39:25,208 --> 00:39:26,250
Sir!
570
00:39:27,500 --> 00:39:29,167
Charlie Alpha Juliet to Control.
571
00:39:29,250 --> 00:39:30,542
We're under heavy attack.
572
00:39:30,625 --> 00:39:33,667
Send very strong reinforcements
immediately. Very urgent.
573
00:39:34,167 --> 00:39:35,375
[McEntee] Operation Morthor
574
00:39:35,458 --> 00:39:38,042
has led to the suspension
of the Katangan government.
575
00:39:38,542 --> 00:39:40,333
We seized Katanga radio station
576
00:39:40,417 --> 00:39:43,083
and all communications
at 0400 hours today.
577
00:39:43,167 --> 00:39:46,208
You attacked the enemy
without telling troops in the field?
578
00:39:46,292 --> 00:39:48,750
The operation
has been completed successfully.
579
00:39:49,292 --> 00:39:50,958
If the operation was a success...
580
00:39:51,958 --> 00:39:53,667
then why are they shooting at us?
581
00:39:56,333 --> 00:39:57,167
Fuck!
582
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:04,042
Sniper.
583
00:40:06,667 --> 00:40:07,792
Go up to the trench now.
584
00:40:08,583 --> 00:40:09,833
Give us some cover. Go on.
585
00:40:11,583 --> 00:40:13,583
The rest of you, follow him. Go, go, go.
586
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:22,833
Sir, there's nobody here.
587
00:40:25,750 --> 00:40:27,542
Because they're only coming from the east.
588
00:40:30,042 --> 00:40:32,333
Right, three of you stay here.
589
00:40:32,417 --> 00:40:34,250
The rest of you, pull back on me.
590
00:40:34,333 --> 00:40:35,375
Let's go.
591
00:40:36,083 --> 00:40:37,125
As we were.
592
00:40:38,917 --> 00:40:40,208
[Prendergast] They are wide open!
593
00:40:41,792 --> 00:40:43,250
[yells in French]
594
00:40:45,750 --> 00:40:46,833
[Prendergast] Use cover.
595
00:40:49,417 --> 00:40:50,250
Pair off.
596
00:40:57,750 --> 00:40:58,792
[cries out]
597
00:41:03,625 --> 00:41:04,750
Fuck!
598
00:41:05,417 --> 00:41:06,458
[Prendergast] Reidy!
599
00:41:06,542 --> 00:41:07,750
[groans]
600
00:41:08,875 --> 00:41:10,042
Magazine!
601
00:41:10,917 --> 00:41:12,958
Quinlan doesn't know what he's doing.
602
00:41:13,042 --> 00:41:14,375
He's gonna get us killed!
603
00:41:15,708 --> 00:41:17,292
I hope to fuck you're wrong!
604
00:41:19,458 --> 00:41:21,375
[Prendergast] I'm going back for Reidy.
605
00:41:34,958 --> 00:41:36,000
[Reidy cries out]
606
00:41:48,875 --> 00:41:51,958
-Am I dying?
-No, you'll be grand.
607
00:41:53,292 --> 00:41:54,458
[Prendergast] Start her up!
608
00:41:59,500 --> 00:42:00,667
Bring her forward! Go!
609
00:42:05,125 --> 00:42:06,833
Cover that mad bastard!
610
00:42:22,083 --> 00:42:23,792
[mercenaries crying out]
611
00:42:26,375 --> 00:42:27,417
[yells in French]
612
00:42:27,917 --> 00:42:28,958
[whistle blows]
613
00:42:32,958 --> 00:42:33,958
[engine starts]
614
00:42:36,083 --> 00:42:37,958
[yells]
615
00:42:41,167 --> 00:42:42,208
Faulques!
616
00:42:43,833 --> 00:42:45,542
Faulques, come on!
617
00:42:51,750 --> 00:42:52,792
[gunfire ceases]
618
00:42:54,625 --> 00:42:56,000
[intermittent gunfire]
619
00:43:02,167 --> 00:43:03,583
Cease fire!
620
00:43:04,958 --> 00:43:06,000
Cease fire!
621
00:43:09,833 --> 00:43:10,875
[gunshot]
622
00:43:11,542 --> 00:43:12,458
Cease fire!
623
00:43:23,833 --> 00:43:27,167
-[Prendergast] Hegarty, check positions.
-Send runners, one per trench.
624
00:43:27,250 --> 00:43:28,083
[soldier] Yes, sir.
625
00:43:28,167 --> 00:43:29,542
Get me Battalion HQ.
626
00:43:59,917 --> 00:44:00,958
Sir.
627
00:44:01,708 --> 00:44:04,000
General McEntee's staff
said he's unavailable.
628
00:44:04,083 --> 00:44:05,458
Did you tell him we got attacked?
629
00:44:05,542 --> 00:44:07,875
Yes. They said,
"God bless and hold tight."
630
00:44:08,875 --> 00:44:10,833
"God bless"?
What's that supposed to mean?
631
00:44:10,917 --> 00:44:14,375
Um... I suppose he means,
"May God's blessings be upon us," sir.
632
00:44:17,417 --> 00:44:20,708
Start a radio log. From now on,
everything that's said goes on record.
633
00:44:21,458 --> 00:44:22,292
Yes, sir.
634
00:45:14,375 --> 00:45:16,250
-[gunshot echoes]
-[hyena whimpers]
635
00:45:45,125 --> 00:45:46,750
[Quinlan] I'll run position one.
636
00:45:47,333 --> 00:45:48,375
North flank.
637
00:45:48,458 --> 00:45:51,458
Company Sergeant, you run position two.
638
00:45:51,542 --> 00:45:52,667
East flank.
639
00:45:53,250 --> 00:45:54,083
Hegarty.
640
00:45:55,417 --> 00:45:57,292
Position three, south flank.
641
00:45:59,375 --> 00:46:01,625
We were told the enemy were unprepared.
642
00:46:02,250 --> 00:46:03,333
We were misinformed.
643
00:46:03,875 --> 00:46:04,958
They got lucky,
644
00:46:05,042 --> 00:46:06,542
but that only happens once.
645
00:46:07,625 --> 00:46:10,250
Remember,
none of these men have seen battle.
646
00:46:10,958 --> 00:46:14,667
On our next engagement, we will
overrun them with 20 times their forces.
647
00:46:16,333 --> 00:46:17,833
Where are we in logistics?
648
00:46:17,917 --> 00:46:19,458
FNs to the best marksmen.
649
00:46:19,542 --> 00:46:21,333
Gustafs to the officers and the NCOs.
650
00:46:21,417 --> 00:46:24,792
Each platoon splits the Brens and Vickers.
Donnelly is on the mortars.
651
00:46:24,875 --> 00:46:26,125
But, sir...
652
00:46:26,208 --> 00:46:28,000
they never sent us the heavy 81s.
653
00:46:28,708 --> 00:46:31,250
We'll finish this in one all-out victory.
654
00:46:31,875 --> 00:46:33,667
[yells in French]
655
00:46:34,333 --> 00:46:35,458
All right? So let's go!
656
00:46:35,542 --> 00:46:36,917
Let's go!
657
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,917
The real problem's the ammo.
We've only 13,000 rounds.
658
00:46:41,250 --> 00:46:42,458
It's not gonna last long.
659
00:46:43,708 --> 00:46:45,583
Sir, I've got General McEntee.
660
00:46:52,333 --> 00:46:54,417
General, request an immediate update.
661
00:46:54,500 --> 00:46:56,167
Report your situation, Commandant.
662
00:46:56,750 --> 00:46:57,875
Company A, Jadotville
663
00:46:57,958 --> 00:46:59,958
has been under mortar
and machine-gun fire.
664
00:47:00,042 --> 00:47:01,792
Expect a heavy attack any moment.
665
00:47:01,875 --> 00:47:03,833
I sent a man. I told you this was coming.
666
00:47:03,917 --> 00:47:05,667
Watch yourself, Commandant.
667
00:47:06,458 --> 00:47:07,792
General...
668
00:47:07,875 --> 00:47:09,250
I'm in a bad situation here
669
00:47:09,333 --> 00:47:10,375
and I need your help.
670
00:47:11,125 --> 00:47:12,417
From the dead they left,
671
00:47:12,500 --> 00:47:14,833
I'd say
we're looking at a force of about 1,500.
672
00:47:15,917 --> 00:47:18,208
I need you to send reinforcements
right now.
673
00:47:18,750 --> 00:47:20,000
Send as many as you can.
674
00:47:20,083 --> 00:47:22,958
There's a negative exercise outcome
if we don't get them.
675
00:47:25,625 --> 00:47:26,667
Is that him?
676
00:47:26,750 --> 00:47:27,792
[McEntee] Mm.
677
00:47:31,208 --> 00:47:33,708
Commandant,
this is Dr Conor Cruise O'Brien.
678
00:47:33,792 --> 00:47:35,625
I urge you to stop panicking.
679
00:47:35,708 --> 00:47:36,750
Panicking?
680
00:47:36,833 --> 00:47:40,000
With respect, sir, are you aware
of the realities on the ground?
681
00:47:40,083 --> 00:47:42,167
I assure you I'm very well aware of them.
682
00:47:42,250 --> 00:47:44,750
These are the final death gasps
of Tshombe's government.
683
00:47:45,250 --> 00:47:46,542
I'm not sure he knows that.
684
00:47:47,042 --> 00:47:49,500
Hold your position.
Allow our plan to play out.
685
00:47:49,583 --> 00:47:51,167
The plan is two days old
686
00:47:51,250 --> 00:47:53,500
and didn't include Tshombe's mercs.
687
00:47:53,583 --> 00:47:55,500
What went wrong with your plan, sir?
688
00:47:55,583 --> 00:47:58,042
Sounds like you're looking for an excuse,
Commandant.
689
00:47:58,958 --> 00:48:01,042
We each have our part to play in history.
690
00:48:01,125 --> 00:48:02,792
Yours is happening right now.
691
00:48:02,875 --> 00:48:04,750
Rely on us to make sure it all works out.
692
00:48:05,333 --> 00:48:07,833
Sir, I don't understand
what you just said to me,
693
00:48:07,917 --> 00:48:11,167
and in tactical terms
I don't understand what you're doing.
694
00:48:11,250 --> 00:48:14,208
I have 150 boys here
and we need reinforcements.
695
00:48:14,292 --> 00:48:15,792
No, you listen to me, Quinlan.
696
00:48:15,875 --> 00:48:18,583
There are larger things at play
than you can possibly imagine.
697
00:48:18,667 --> 00:48:20,833
I don't give a damn
about the larger things!
698
00:48:20,917 --> 00:48:22,500
We're a company under siege
699
00:48:22,583 --> 00:48:24,417
and we require your assistance!
700
00:48:24,500 --> 00:48:26,792
Discuss the details with General McEntee.
701
00:48:26,875 --> 00:48:27,958
Jesus Christ!
702
00:48:28,875 --> 00:48:31,458
General,
does he have a clue what he's doing?
703
00:48:31,542 --> 00:48:34,958
All our troops in the field
are on Operation Morthor, Commandant.
704
00:48:35,583 --> 00:48:37,292
We don't have any reinforcements.
705
00:48:37,375 --> 00:48:38,417
Exactly.
706
00:48:38,792 --> 00:48:40,958
Nobody thought this was a possibility,
did they?
707
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:44,417
When do our men come back in?
708
00:48:44,500 --> 00:48:47,375
A heavy-weapons battalion's
expected here within 12 hours.
709
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,667
They'll be sent out to you immediately.
710
00:48:50,542 --> 00:48:51,583
Thank you, sir.
711
00:48:52,583 --> 00:48:53,625
One more thing.
712
00:48:54,458 --> 00:48:56,042
We could do with some whiskey.
713
00:48:56,125 --> 00:48:57,167
[chuckles]
714
00:48:57,917 --> 00:48:59,250
I'll see what I can do.
715
00:49:07,583 --> 00:49:08,667
[Quinlan] Follow me.
716
00:49:11,375 --> 00:49:14,250
What exactly did he mean
by "negative exercise outcome"?
717
00:49:14,333 --> 00:49:18,083
It means that without reinforcements...
we're fucked.
718
00:49:25,833 --> 00:49:28,333
[Tshombe on TV] The aggressive action
of the United Nations
719
00:49:28,417 --> 00:49:30,917
in Elisabethville is unacceptable.
720
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,292
It is unfortunate for my beloved country
721
00:49:33,375 --> 00:49:35,583
that the United Nations peacekeepers
722
00:49:35,667 --> 00:49:37,500
have now become aggressors.
723
00:49:38,833 --> 00:49:41,750
Or, should I say, peace enforcers.
724
00:49:42,625 --> 00:49:43,667
Desmond!
725
00:49:43,750 --> 00:49:46,083
The international community
needs to realize
726
00:49:46,167 --> 00:49:48,958
that this type of imperialist intervention
727
00:49:49,042 --> 00:49:50,083
is nothing new.
728
00:49:50,667 --> 00:49:51,917
But we, Katanga...
729
00:49:52,708 --> 00:49:53,750
Sir.
730
00:49:54,292 --> 00:49:56,333
I want a private meeting with Tshombe.
731
00:49:56,417 --> 00:49:57,458
Somewhere neutral.
732
00:49:58,875 --> 00:49:59,917
Just the two of us.
733
00:51:18,125 --> 00:51:20,250
They're coming! Get ready for it!
734
00:51:20,333 --> 00:51:21,500
Into your trenches!
735
00:51:21,583 --> 00:51:22,625
[commotion]
736
00:51:26,625 --> 00:51:27,667
[soldier panting]
737
00:51:34,625 --> 00:51:36,125
[Quinlan] Pick your targets!
738
00:51:36,208 --> 00:51:37,208
Get ready!
739
00:51:49,667 --> 00:51:51,792
[Prendergast] Cover up and pick a target!
740
00:51:51,875 --> 00:51:52,917
Stand to!
741
00:52:00,542 --> 00:52:01,583
[whistle blows]
742
00:52:01,667 --> 00:52:02,917
-[yelling]
-[gunfire]
743
00:52:20,417 --> 00:52:22,958
Cooley, you are snatching the trigger!
744
00:52:23,042 --> 00:52:24,083
Slow down!
745
00:52:24,708 --> 00:52:27,250
Breathe, squeeze, kill!
746
00:52:27,333 --> 00:52:28,500
Breathe again!
747
00:52:29,625 --> 00:52:30,667
[mercenary yells]
748
00:52:30,750 --> 00:52:32,875
Good man, Cooley! Keep it up!
749
00:52:42,500 --> 00:52:43,417
[soldier] Over here!
750
00:52:44,125 --> 00:52:44,958
Sniper!
751
00:52:45,042 --> 00:52:47,792
-Boss?
-Can you hit the schoolhouse?
752
00:52:50,917 --> 00:52:51,958
Yeah.
753
00:52:52,042 --> 00:52:53,333
Bren in a single shot.
754
00:52:53,417 --> 00:52:54,708
I need the Bren!
755
00:52:59,458 --> 00:53:00,500
Go on!
756
00:53:03,833 --> 00:53:05,042
The man in the white suit.
757
00:53:09,625 --> 00:53:10,792
Do you have his heart?
758
00:53:14,292 --> 00:53:15,417
Yeah, boss.
759
00:53:15,958 --> 00:53:16,875
Take it.
760
00:53:28,792 --> 00:53:30,208
Do you think he was important?
761
00:53:30,708 --> 00:53:34,417
If he was... we won't
have to wait too long to find out.
762
00:53:35,333 --> 00:53:36,417
Hey!
763
00:53:38,708 --> 00:53:40,000
[gunfire intensifies]
764
00:53:42,042 --> 00:53:43,750
Retreat! Retreat!
765
00:53:43,833 --> 00:53:45,042
[yells in French]
766
00:53:48,958 --> 00:53:50,208
[Quinlan] Pick your targets!
767
00:54:00,375 --> 00:54:01,458
[Quinlan] Cease fire!
768
00:54:02,667 --> 00:54:03,708
Hold your fire!
769
00:54:04,375 --> 00:54:05,417
[gunfire continues]
770
00:54:05,500 --> 00:54:06,542
Cease fire!
771
00:54:06,625 --> 00:54:07,917
[Prendergast] Cease fire!
772
00:54:08,417 --> 00:54:09,917
[soldier] Cease fire!
773
00:54:12,167 --> 00:54:13,458
[intermittent gunfire]
774
00:54:15,875 --> 00:54:17,167
Cease fire!
775
00:54:20,458 --> 00:54:22,458
[soldier] We've got to clear
that whole area.
776
00:54:57,667 --> 00:54:58,708
[Quinlan] Cover me.
777
00:55:28,792 --> 00:55:30,000
Commandant Quinlan.
778
00:55:30,542 --> 00:55:32,833
You're a good drinker,
but not such a good soldier.
779
00:55:33,500 --> 00:55:35,208
And I believe I can be of help to you.
780
00:55:36,458 --> 00:55:38,625
That's nice of you.
How do you aim to do that?
781
00:55:38,708 --> 00:55:39,958
By making you see sense.
782
00:55:41,250 --> 00:55:43,208
You do realize that you are outnumbered
783
00:55:43,292 --> 00:55:44,333
by a factor of 20?
784
00:55:45,708 --> 00:55:47,000
I see a lot of dead men here.
785
00:55:47,750 --> 00:55:49,000
None of them are mine.
786
00:55:49,083 --> 00:55:51,542
Yet you must see
that your position is untenable.
787
00:55:52,792 --> 00:55:56,167
The only way to survive this
is to let the politicians sort it out.
788
00:55:56,667 --> 00:55:58,958
We were attacked without provocation.
789
00:55:59,042 --> 00:56:00,458
We responded.
790
00:56:00,542 --> 00:56:02,125
We will continue to respond
791
00:56:02,208 --> 00:56:03,500
if you continue to attack.
792
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:05,708
I'm afraid I have orders to follow.
793
00:56:06,833 --> 00:56:08,125
I require your surrender.
794
00:56:09,500 --> 00:56:11,792
You're not formally recognized
to accept surrenders.
795
00:56:13,083 --> 00:56:14,333
But I am.
796
00:56:14,417 --> 00:56:15,500
I'll accept yours.
797
00:56:17,542 --> 00:56:18,667
That's not an option.
798
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,917
Nevertheless,
we would like a cease fire...
799
00:56:26,792 --> 00:56:29,958
to send in ambulances
and remove the dead and wounded.
800
00:56:36,792 --> 00:56:38,375
Tell your men we have a cease fire.
801
00:56:56,375 --> 00:56:58,208
Use that flag as a range marker.
802
00:57:00,250 --> 00:57:02,917
Joyce, get the Vickers ready.
Set up a position in the chapel.
803
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:04,208
Yes, sir.
804
00:57:04,833 --> 00:57:05,792
[Joyce] Murphy!
805
00:57:08,417 --> 00:57:09,667
[Quinlan] Hold your fire.
806
00:57:27,333 --> 00:57:28,375
[door opening]
807
00:58:19,542 --> 00:58:20,958
Boss! Boss!
808
00:58:21,042 --> 00:58:22,208
It's a trap!
809
00:58:22,875 --> 00:58:23,875
Move!
810
00:58:27,458 --> 00:58:28,750
Open fire!
811
00:58:31,167 --> 00:58:32,542
[soldier] Get the mortars ready!
812
00:58:43,333 --> 00:58:44,542
[Quinlan] Donnelly!
813
00:58:44,625 --> 00:58:45,792
Take those fuckers out!
814
00:58:46,667 --> 00:58:47,958
I'm on it!
815
00:58:48,833 --> 00:58:50,208
Get down!
816
00:58:56,792 --> 00:58:58,292
Incoming!
817
00:59:09,583 --> 00:59:10,750
Sergeant!
818
00:59:10,833 --> 00:59:12,292
Sergeant!
819
00:59:14,583 --> 00:59:15,792
Cover fire!
820
00:59:17,250 --> 00:59:19,375
Hegarty, get in the trench!
821
00:59:28,708 --> 00:59:29,792
Come here! Come here!
822
00:59:35,708 --> 00:59:37,125
Come on.
823
00:59:37,208 --> 00:59:39,042
Grab hold of my belt and don't let go.
824
00:59:39,125 --> 00:59:41,375
[Hegarty] I can't see! I can't see!
825
00:59:43,750 --> 00:59:44,583
[yells in French]
826
00:59:50,125 --> 00:59:51,667
I'm blind! They hit my head!
827
00:59:51,750 --> 00:59:53,333
You're fine. You're fine.
828
00:59:53,417 --> 00:59:55,500
We're going for the trench, all right?
829
00:59:56,667 --> 00:59:57,875
Don't drop me.
830
00:59:57,958 --> 01:00:00,042
Yeah, boy. Fuck, okay, come on.
831
01:00:15,917 --> 01:00:17,792
-[shouts in French]
-[whistle blows]
832
01:00:17,875 --> 01:00:19,417
[mercenaries yelling]
833
01:00:24,292 --> 01:00:25,542
[Joyce] We have to move.
834
01:00:26,667 --> 01:00:27,500
Go!
835
01:00:28,917 --> 01:00:29,792
Go! Go! Go!
836
01:00:33,917 --> 01:00:35,708
Target: X-ray four.
837
01:00:35,792 --> 01:00:37,792
Two thousand two hundred yards.
838
01:00:41,250 --> 01:00:42,292
Fire one!
839
01:01:14,542 --> 01:01:16,750
Dud. Timer blew.
840
01:01:16,833 --> 01:01:18,042
Bag it.
841
01:01:21,500 --> 01:01:22,417
[Donnelly] Fire two!
842
01:01:31,875 --> 01:01:34,000
[grunts] Right in the red ring!
843
01:01:34,083 --> 01:01:35,542
[sequential explosions]
844
01:01:36,542 --> 01:01:38,708
That's their mortars going off.
845
01:01:40,417 --> 01:01:41,583
[shouts in French]
846
01:01:43,208 --> 01:01:44,375
Pick your targets!
847
01:01:47,333 --> 01:01:49,875
-[whistle blowing]
-[mercenaries yelling]
848
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:52,167
[mercenary cries out]
849
01:01:54,167 --> 01:01:55,208
Retreat!
850
01:02:02,167 --> 01:02:03,417
Cease fire!
851
01:02:04,042 --> 01:02:05,500
[distant soldier] Cease fire!
852
01:02:08,542 --> 01:02:09,583
[gunfire ceases]
853
01:02:32,875 --> 01:02:34,750
You acquitted yourself well out there.
854
01:02:41,708 --> 01:02:42,792
What?
855
01:02:42,875 --> 01:02:43,708
Nothing.
856
01:02:45,125 --> 01:02:46,167
It was something.
857
01:02:50,833 --> 01:02:52,125
I felt scared.
858
01:02:52,750 --> 01:02:54,750
-It's only natural.
-No, that's not it.
859
01:02:56,667 --> 01:02:57,833
I was scared.
860
01:03:00,208 --> 01:03:01,958
But then... I liked it.
861
01:03:03,292 --> 01:03:04,333
The killing.
862
01:03:05,667 --> 01:03:07,125
It's what you're trained to do.
863
01:03:07,875 --> 01:03:08,917
You didn't like it.
864
01:03:13,125 --> 01:03:16,083
Each man reacts differently
to killing another man.
865
01:03:19,708 --> 01:03:21,292
None of us have done this before.
866
01:03:24,292 --> 01:03:25,458
Talk to me in a few days.
867
01:03:28,042 --> 01:03:29,667
Oh, you think we'll last that long?
868
01:03:40,750 --> 01:03:42,667
How many dead at Radio Katanga?
869
01:03:42,750 --> 01:03:43,792
Thirty, sir.
870
01:03:44,375 --> 01:03:48,833
This will negate a vast reserve
of goodwill towards the organization
871
01:03:48,917 --> 01:03:52,292
and show that we cannot behave any better
than any single country.
872
01:03:52,375 --> 01:03:54,083
Sir, these things happen in war.
873
01:03:54,625 --> 01:03:55,750
Not in my war.
874
01:03:58,125 --> 01:04:00,208
What was O'Brien's role in all of this?
875
01:04:01,958 --> 01:04:03,125
He's a smart man, sir,
876
01:04:03,208 --> 01:04:06,250
but he's an academic
who thinks that everything stands still
877
01:04:06,333 --> 01:04:07,917
while he thinks about what to do.
878
01:04:12,292 --> 01:04:13,458
We are a new thing.
879
01:04:14,083 --> 01:04:16,333
Sometimes new things stumble.
880
01:04:16,417 --> 01:04:17,917
But we pick ourselves up...
881
01:04:19,167 --> 01:04:21,750
instead of pretending
that we didn't fall.
882
01:04:21,833 --> 01:04:24,875
So we're going to say that,
in our first military intervention,
883
01:04:24,958 --> 01:04:25,792
we got it all wrong?
884
01:04:27,125 --> 01:04:28,583
We acknowledge the action...
885
01:04:29,958 --> 01:04:31,500
but we distance ourselves.
886
01:04:32,167 --> 01:04:33,917
It's our plan, our forces.
887
01:04:34,500 --> 01:04:36,000
How do we distance ourselves?
888
01:04:36,583 --> 01:04:37,750
By applying blame.
889
01:05:00,458 --> 01:05:01,500
Dr O'Brien.
890
01:05:02,792 --> 01:05:03,833
General Tshombe.
891
01:05:06,667 --> 01:05:08,958
[Tshombe]
I would say, "Welcome to my country.
892
01:05:09,042 --> 01:05:10,375
Make yourself at home,"
893
01:05:10,458 --> 01:05:12,417
but it appears you already have.
894
01:05:13,917 --> 01:05:15,250
Well, there are those
895
01:05:15,333 --> 01:05:17,500
who might say you're a little premature
896
01:05:17,583 --> 01:05:19,625
in taking command of who you welcome.
897
01:05:20,333 --> 01:05:23,000
Would you rather my predecessor
was still in charge?
898
01:05:23,083 --> 01:05:25,583
The only people he welcomed
were the communists.
899
01:05:25,667 --> 01:05:28,625
Or perhaps
you would rather we send all our cobalt,
900
01:05:28,708 --> 01:05:31,375
copper and uranium to the USSR?
901
01:05:31,458 --> 01:05:32,542
[O'Brien chuckles]
902
01:05:33,333 --> 01:05:34,500
Of course not, General.
903
01:05:35,417 --> 01:05:38,417
It's just you haven't been elected
to the office you claim to hold.
904
01:05:38,500 --> 01:05:41,417
I am merely saying that Katanga,
905
01:05:41,500 --> 01:05:42,542
my province,
906
01:05:42,625 --> 01:05:44,208
is no longer part of the Congo...
907
01:05:45,167 --> 01:05:46,542
and I am its president.
908
01:05:47,083 --> 01:05:49,500
Yes, well, that's a little like Texas
909
01:05:49,583 --> 01:05:52,208
saying it's no longer part of the USA,
910
01:05:52,292 --> 01:05:54,875
that its oil
gives it the power to do that.
911
01:05:54,958 --> 01:05:56,000
[Tshombe chuckles]
912
01:05:56,083 --> 01:05:57,875
Factually, that would be correct.
913
01:05:58,417 --> 01:05:59,708
They were part of Mexico.
914
01:06:00,250 --> 01:06:02,500
America land-grabbed Texas.
915
01:06:02,583 --> 01:06:04,708
Sir, I would like to see
an end to the conflict
916
01:06:04,792 --> 01:06:07,708
between the United Nations
and those loyal to you in Katanga.
917
01:06:07,792 --> 01:06:12,083
Then recognize Katanga's
legitimate government and president
918
01:06:12,167 --> 01:06:14,542
in a United Nations resolution.
919
01:06:19,125 --> 01:06:21,917
That's... simply not being realistic.
920
01:06:31,167 --> 01:06:33,167
Do you think we did not hear the rumors
921
01:06:33,250 --> 01:06:35,542
about the Radio Katanga massacre?
922
01:06:37,917 --> 01:06:38,958
Rumors? Well...
923
01:06:41,042 --> 01:06:43,083
-They're inaccurate.
-I don't think so.
924
01:06:44,208 --> 01:06:46,792
I think the United Nations,
925
01:06:46,875 --> 01:06:50,708
this paragon of virtue and fairness...
926
01:06:51,917 --> 01:06:54,292
executed my loyalists.
927
01:06:55,583 --> 01:06:56,625
[Tshombe] Hm?
928
01:06:58,208 --> 01:07:00,708
Sir, I'm sure we can find a way
929
01:07:00,792 --> 01:07:02,833
to draw ourselves back from the brink.
930
01:07:02,917 --> 01:07:07,792
Then recognize Katanga's
legitimate government and president
931
01:07:07,875 --> 01:07:10,750
in a United Nations resolution.
932
01:07:12,333 --> 01:07:14,083
That's simply not going to happen.
933
01:07:14,167 --> 01:07:16,833
Then enough of this, Dr O'Brien.
934
01:07:18,833 --> 01:07:21,292
The United Nations went from peacekeeping
935
01:07:21,375 --> 01:07:22,667
to peace enforcement.
936
01:07:23,917 --> 01:07:25,333
And your mission has failed.
937
01:07:30,917 --> 01:07:33,375
Did you forget about your fellow Irishmen
938
01:07:33,458 --> 01:07:34,750
left out in the field?
939
01:07:36,042 --> 01:07:37,208
What do you mean?
940
01:07:37,292 --> 01:07:38,333
Because I didn't.
941
01:07:40,542 --> 01:07:42,208
I didn't forget about them at all.
942
01:07:55,667 --> 01:07:58,917
My boys are giving everything they've got,
but there's just not enough of us.
943
01:07:59,458 --> 01:08:02,750
I give you my word, you'll have
reinforcements with you tomorrow.
944
01:08:03,375 --> 01:08:05,625
We'll hold out
until our last bullet's spent.
945
01:08:06,167 --> 01:08:07,625
We could do with that whiskey.
946
01:08:14,583 --> 01:08:16,417
[Quinlan]
They're going after the ammo hut!
947
01:08:18,333 --> 01:08:19,375
[soldier] Go, move!
948
01:08:25,917 --> 01:08:27,375
[Quinlan] Get this out of here! Go!
949
01:08:31,792 --> 01:08:32,917
-[Quinlan] Go!
-Run!
950
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:34,167
Grab this one.
951
01:08:56,333 --> 01:08:57,917
That will be blowing up all night.
952
01:09:01,500 --> 01:09:03,417
We'd better get our reinforcements
tomorrow.
953
01:09:03,500 --> 01:09:04,667
We'd fucking better.
954
01:09:05,792 --> 01:09:07,458
[US Ambassador] Mr Secretary General,
955
01:09:07,542 --> 01:09:10,458
in view of your failure
to prevent civil war in the Congo,
956
01:09:10,542 --> 01:09:13,458
President Kennedy
has personally told me to insist
957
01:09:13,542 --> 01:09:15,792
that the United States play a larger part
958
01:09:15,875 --> 01:09:19,250
in your mishandled military adventure.
959
01:09:19,333 --> 01:09:20,958
Please tell President Kennedy
960
01:09:21,042 --> 01:09:22,500
that I appreciate the offer.
961
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:26,250
[USSR Ambassador] You are aware
that if you had responded sooner
962
01:09:26,333 --> 01:09:29,792
to Prime Minister Lumumba's
request for UN intervention,
963
01:09:29,875 --> 01:09:31,958
we would not be where we are today.
964
01:09:32,042 --> 01:09:34,583
We might well have arrived here
by other means.
965
01:09:34,667 --> 01:09:37,167
Has General Tshombe
even accepted a cease fire yet?
966
01:09:37,250 --> 01:09:39,625
He has not. That's my first priority.
967
01:09:39,708 --> 01:09:40,833
Thank you, gentlemen.
968
01:09:42,625 --> 01:09:44,583
-[aide] Sir?
-Call Tshombe directly.
969
01:09:45,458 --> 01:09:48,333
Tell him that the Secretary General
of the United Nations
970
01:09:48,417 --> 01:09:50,292
is flying to meet with him in the Congo.
971
01:09:51,750 --> 01:09:53,292
See if that gets his attention.
972
01:10:00,583 --> 01:10:01,625
[flies buzzing]
973
01:10:07,083 --> 01:10:08,667
Would you like to say a few words?
974
01:10:17,417 --> 01:10:18,667
They poisoned the water.
975
01:10:18,750 --> 01:10:21,458
Take what you can from the barrels.
It's all we have. Do it now.
976
01:10:25,458 --> 01:10:27,208
-Cooley, get more buckets.
-Yes, sir.
977
01:10:29,083 --> 01:10:30,292
[distant heavy gunfire]
978
01:10:31,792 --> 01:10:34,708
Radio! That'll be our reinforcements.
979
01:10:36,458 --> 01:10:37,792
[distant gunfire continues]
980
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:40,042
What are you hearing?
981
01:10:41,208 --> 01:10:43,208
Nothing of ours, if that's what you mean.
982
01:10:45,792 --> 01:10:46,833
Let's go!
983
01:10:53,333 --> 01:10:55,042
Is that my reinforcements I hear?
984
01:10:55,125 --> 01:10:57,292
Kane's platoon are at the bridge.
985
01:10:58,083 --> 01:11:00,250
Thirty men?
What happened to the battalion?
986
01:11:00,833 --> 01:11:02,292
It's all we could get.
987
01:11:02,375 --> 01:11:04,167
They're under heavy bombardment.
988
01:11:05,292 --> 01:11:06,875
They may have to pull back.
989
01:11:06,958 --> 01:11:08,750
Our only hope is that you reach us!
990
01:11:08,833 --> 01:11:10,292
I'll try to get through to them.
991
01:11:29,625 --> 01:11:32,167
We're facing bigger numbers
than we were advised!
992
01:11:32,250 --> 01:11:33,292
We have to pull out!
993
01:11:33,375 --> 01:11:35,000
Pull back! Pull back!
994
01:11:35,875 --> 01:11:37,708
Sir. McEntee.
995
01:11:37,792 --> 01:11:39,458
[Prendergast] Back to your positions.
996
01:11:40,042 --> 01:11:43,333
-Quinlan.
-[McEntee] They can't break through, Pat.
997
01:11:43,417 --> 01:11:45,708
The Gends have shored up
with the big guns.
998
01:11:46,292 --> 01:11:48,083
Don't we have a load of big guns, Sean?
999
01:11:48,167 --> 01:11:51,333
Don't the United-fucking-Nations
have a load of big guns?
1000
01:11:51,417 --> 01:11:52,833
Not that we can get to you.
1001
01:11:54,875 --> 01:11:56,083
[Prendergast] Get ready!
1002
01:11:58,500 --> 01:12:00,250
You're hanging us out to dry.
1003
01:12:00,333 --> 01:12:01,375
Tell me you're not.
1004
01:12:02,083 --> 01:12:06,167
[Prendergast] They're splitting
into platoons! Target their heavy guns!
1005
01:12:06,250 --> 01:12:07,542
Open fire!
1006
01:12:07,625 --> 01:12:10,833
Tell me what I'm supposed to do, General.
1007
01:12:13,500 --> 01:12:14,542
General!
1008
01:12:18,833 --> 01:12:20,708
Carry out your orders, Commandant.
1009
01:12:21,667 --> 01:12:22,708
Hold your ground.
1010
01:12:23,708 --> 01:12:25,167
Defend Jadotville.
1011
01:12:26,708 --> 01:12:29,000
With what? A firm tone?
1012
01:12:30,083 --> 01:12:31,125
[gunfire]
1013
01:12:52,167 --> 01:12:53,208
[clicking]
1014
01:12:54,083 --> 01:12:55,125
Ammo!
1015
01:12:55,208 --> 01:12:56,792
We need more ammo over here!
1016
01:13:03,250 --> 01:13:04,625
[soldier] Make it last!
1017
01:13:05,875 --> 01:13:09,333
I'm going to start charging you
for every fucking bullet that misses!
1018
01:13:13,458 --> 01:13:15,250
[Quinlan] Stick to your positions!
1019
01:13:15,333 --> 01:13:16,708
Last magazine!
1020
01:13:20,333 --> 01:13:22,458
Go and find out where our fucking ammo is!
1021
01:13:28,542 --> 01:13:30,167
I have to round up more ammo!
1022
01:13:36,917 --> 01:13:39,958
Fucking... little bastards!
1023
01:13:40,792 --> 01:13:42,208
Get off! Get off!
1024
01:13:51,667 --> 01:13:52,917
[Prendergast] Hold fire!
1025
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:54,042
[gunfire ceases]
1026
01:13:56,875 --> 01:13:58,167
[mercenaries yelling]
1027
01:14:04,458 --> 01:14:05,500
We didn't do that.
1028
01:14:06,833 --> 01:14:08,458
[high-pitched whining]
1029
01:14:08,542 --> 01:14:09,417
Incoming!
1030
01:14:38,375 --> 01:14:39,750
Cooley!
1031
01:14:43,375 --> 01:14:44,208
Find his head!
1032
01:14:46,625 --> 01:14:47,458
There he is!
1033
01:14:48,917 --> 01:14:49,958
Get him some air.
1034
01:14:50,458 --> 01:14:51,500
[gasps]
1035
01:14:51,583 --> 01:14:52,750
[cough and splutters]
1036
01:15:13,083 --> 01:15:14,958
[medic] We're running out of supplies.
1037
01:15:15,042 --> 01:15:17,083
Some of these lads won't last much longer.
1038
01:15:22,250 --> 01:15:23,292
Any dead?
1039
01:15:23,875 --> 01:15:25,083
[medic] Not yet.
1040
01:15:56,875 --> 01:15:57,917
[Donnelly] Medic!
1041
01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:00,000
Eyes on the south flank!
1042
01:16:01,458 --> 01:16:02,792
[medic] Let's get him inside.
1043
01:16:23,625 --> 01:16:24,667
[Quinlan groans]
1044
01:16:35,292 --> 01:16:36,667
And we're out of morphine.
1045
01:16:38,417 --> 01:16:39,583
[Quinlan] Oh, fuck.
1046
01:16:42,208 --> 01:16:43,667
What's it like, getting shot?
1047
01:16:46,292 --> 01:16:47,583
I wouldn't recommend it.
1048
01:16:56,167 --> 01:16:57,917
Dr O'Brien,
1049
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:00,875
you have made a very bad thing much worse.
1050
01:17:00,958 --> 01:17:03,833
Sir, I made my decisions
based on conditions in the field.
1051
01:17:04,583 --> 01:17:07,375
Your decisions have led to more bloodshed.
1052
01:17:07,458 --> 01:17:10,583
Sir, Operation Morthor
has still been successful in the main.
1053
01:17:10,667 --> 01:17:13,667
But you allowed a massacre
at the radio station.
1054
01:17:13,750 --> 01:17:15,167
You expect me to defend that?
1055
01:17:16,417 --> 01:17:18,833
What am I to do
if a commander chooses to go in hard?
1056
01:17:18,917 --> 01:17:20,375
You're the man on the ground.
1057
01:17:20,458 --> 01:17:21,917
Not every square inch of it, sir.
1058
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:24,417
General Tshombe
was willing to negotiate before this.
1059
01:17:24,500 --> 01:17:26,042
Now he's broken all relations.
1060
01:17:26,125 --> 01:17:30,125
And I am told there is an Irish company
stuck in the middle of nowhere under siege
1061
01:17:30,208 --> 01:17:33,042
as a result
of your Radio Katanga disaster.
1062
01:17:33,125 --> 01:17:37,708
Dag... you more than anyone understand
I couldn't control every circumstance.
1063
01:17:37,792 --> 01:17:39,458
You're attached to it, Conor.
1064
01:17:39,542 --> 01:17:41,292
Best leave you unattached to me.
1065
01:17:41,833 --> 01:17:43,875
It's about protecting the organization.
1066
01:17:44,750 --> 01:17:45,875
Secretary General,
1067
01:17:45,958 --> 01:17:48,125
I believe I made the correct decisions.
1068
01:17:48,208 --> 01:17:50,042
If you disagree, when you're here...
1069
01:17:51,167 --> 01:17:52,833
I'll tender my resignation.
1070
01:17:52,917 --> 01:17:55,208
I'm quite sure you think you're right,
Conor.
1071
01:17:56,625 --> 01:17:58,667
But facts on the ground says different.
1072
01:18:00,625 --> 01:18:02,917
And I will have to accept
that resignation.
1073
01:18:05,917 --> 01:18:07,417
[pilot] Unidentified aircraft.
1074
01:18:07,500 --> 01:18:08,708
[jet engine whines]
1075
01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:20,042
[O'Brien] Hello?
1076
01:18:24,792 --> 01:18:25,958
[sighs]
1077
01:18:26,042 --> 01:18:26,875
Get out.
1078
01:18:27,500 --> 01:18:29,542
-Conor, this is a highly volatile--
-Get out!
1079
01:18:44,417 --> 01:18:46,292
Sir, the crow is incoming.
1080
01:18:50,708 --> 01:18:51,750
[rapid gunfire]
1081
01:18:56,500 --> 01:18:57,667
[soldier] Get that gun up!
1082
01:19:11,083 --> 01:19:12,125
Sergeant!
1083
01:19:12,708 --> 01:19:13,958
Help me flip it.
1084
01:19:14,042 --> 01:19:15,083
Corporal Donnelly!
1085
01:19:15,167 --> 01:19:16,333
Bring your sections!
1086
01:19:17,708 --> 01:19:18,958
One, two, three!
1087
01:19:21,083 --> 01:19:22,667
[Prendergast] To your stations!
1088

[gunfire]
1089
01:19:35,167 --> 01:19:36,500
[rapid aerial gunfire]
1090
01:19:56,875 --> 01:19:58,458
I need directions immediately.
1091
01:19:58,542 --> 01:20:00,792
[McEntee] Your message
will be conveyed to Dr O'Brien.
1092
01:20:00,875 --> 01:20:02,708
What's he doing that's so important?
1093
01:20:02,792 --> 01:20:05,292
Does he have any other
United Nations units under siege?
1094
01:20:05,375 --> 01:20:07,792
Your message
will be conveyed to Dr O'Brien.
1095
01:20:07,875 --> 01:20:08,917
Fuck!

1097
01:20:11,500 --> 01:20:14,583
-We're gonna have to leave them out there.
-We're not abandoning them.
1098
01:20:14,667 --> 01:20:17,833
If we engage a battle for air-superiority,
it could lead to full-out war.
1099
01:20:17,917 --> 01:20:20,958
Sure you're not trying
to reinforce a failed operation?
1100
01:20:21,042 --> 01:20:24,000
Look, we cannot be held responsible
for the radio station.
1101
01:20:24,917 --> 01:20:28,542
Quinlan's company was a mistake on
a chess board, leaving a pawn vulnerable.
1102
01:20:29,542 --> 01:20:31,750
You don't sacrifice a queen
to save a pawn.
1103
01:20:32,708 --> 01:20:33,792
[door opening]
1104
01:20:35,833 --> 01:20:36,875
[O'Brien] What?
1105
01:20:38,708 --> 01:20:41,750
"UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjöld's
plane went down."
1106
01:20:43,292 --> 01:20:45,042
"There are no reports of survivors."
1107
01:20:52,667 --> 01:20:53,708
Oh, my God.

[reporter] The tragic death
1109
01:20:57,042 --> 01:20:59,458
of the Secretary General
of the United Nations
1110
01:20:59,542 --> 01:21:01,000
on his way to the Congo.
1111
01:21:01,750 --> 01:21:04,042
Everything now teeters in the balance,
1112
01:21:04,125 --> 01:21:06,708
which has increased the stakes
for the United States
1113
01:21:06,792 --> 01:21:08,333
and the Soviet Republic.
1114
01:21:09,500 --> 01:21:10,542
In Washington,
1115
01:21:10,625 --> 01:21:13,000
President Kennedy voices his tribute.
1116
01:21:13,917 --> 01:21:17,250
Dag Hammarskjöld's cause
of dedication to the cause of peace,
1117
01:21:17,333 --> 01:21:20,458
his willingness
to accept all responsibility...
1118
01:21:21,875 --> 01:21:24,583
in trying to strengthen
the United Nations
1119
01:21:24,667 --> 01:21:27,375
and make it a more effective instrument
1120
01:21:27,458 --> 01:21:32,250
for the aspirations of the hundreds
of millions of people around the globe
1121
01:21:32,333 --> 01:21:34,042
who desire to live out their lives.
1122
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:36,917
Those efforts of his are well known.
1123
01:21:37,875 --> 01:21:40,083
It is tragic and ironical
1124
01:21:40,167 --> 01:21:42,458
that his death came
1125
01:21:42,542 --> 01:21:44,500
during a mission he was undertaking...
1126
01:21:45,417 --> 01:21:47,542
in order to bring about cease fire
1127
01:21:47,625 --> 01:21:48,958
in Katanga.
1128
01:21:50,500 --> 01:21:52,417
Let's see what everybody does now.

[Reidy groaning]
1132
01:21:57,292 --> 01:21:58,333
[Gorman] Turn around.
1133
01:22:02,958 --> 01:22:05,208
You'll be all right, Reidy.
We'll see you at home.

[rotor whirs]
1135
01:22:06,208 --> 01:22:08,458
Clear! We need to go now!
1136

[Quinlan] Get them pilots out!
1143
01:23:23,042 --> 01:23:24,333
What the fuck do we do now?
1144
01:23:25,833 --> 01:23:27,417
The mission now is to keep men alive.
1145
01:23:32,083 --> 01:23:34,083
Charlie Alpha Juliet to Control.
1146
01:23:43,167 --> 01:23:44,208
No response.
1147
01:23:44,292 --> 01:23:46,583
Sir, the radio's working,
they're just not answering.
1148
01:23:46,667 --> 01:23:47,583
Try it again.
1149
01:23:52,167 --> 01:23:54,958
I require an immediate decision
on our last request.

01:23:55,042 --> 01:23:57,625
This is Charlie Alpha Juliet

This is Company A, Jadotville calling.
1154
01:24:09,542 --> 01:24:12,000
I require immediate contact
with anybody there.
1155

[radio crackling]
1156
01:24:17,375 --> 01:24:18,583
They can hear us, boss.
1157
01:24:25,125 --> 01:24:27,125
If they were gonna help,
they would have by now.
1158
01:24:36,958 --> 01:24:38,250
[Donnelly] Sir!
1159
01:24:38,333 --> 01:24:39,667
You need to see this!

If they get close enough, we're fucked.
1164
01:25:12,708 --> 01:25:14,125
Gather up all the shells.
1165
01:25:14,208 --> 01:25:15,042
Now.

I want your honest answer.

Should we surrender?

1261
01:37:37,375 --> 01:37:39,958
We were too relieved
to care what deal had been done,
1262
01:37:40,042 --> 01:37:42,833
and traveled back
knowing that we'd held our own ground...
1263
01:37:43,833 --> 01:37:46,333
and done Ireland and the UN proud.
1264
01:38:08,500 --> 01:38:10,042
[McEntee] Commandant Quinlan.
1265
01:38:14,458 --> 01:38:15,500
Welcome back.
1266
01:38:17,333 --> 01:38:18,958
It's a poor reception, I know.
1267
01:38:19,917 --> 01:38:21,833
I'm putting them all up for medals.
1268
01:38:21,917 --> 01:38:24,375
For a virgin army-- hell, for any army--
1269
01:38:24,458 --> 01:38:25,750
they were magnificent.
1270
01:38:27,042 --> 01:38:28,667
It's not the right time.
1271
01:38:29,875 --> 01:38:30,917
What do you mean?
1272
01:38:32,333 --> 01:38:34,333
There's not going to be
any mention of this.
1273
01:38:36,958 --> 01:38:38,417
It's a complicated situation,
1274
01:38:38,500 --> 01:38:41,292
and frankly,
you've made it more complicated.
1275
01:38:41,375 --> 01:38:42,417
How?
1276
01:38:44,375 --> 01:38:45,583
By surrendering.
1277
01:38:46,375 --> 01:38:47,875
You made us look bad.
1278
01:38:49,250 --> 01:38:51,333
Look, it's not just me, you understand.
1279
01:38:53,458 --> 01:38:55,583
The whole United Nations has been judged.
1280
01:38:56,792 --> 01:38:59,958
If we treat your men like heroes,
then we damage the institution.
1281
01:39:01,375 --> 01:39:03,208
Is this coming from you or O'Brien?
1282
01:39:04,083 --> 01:39:05,750
That's an impertinent question.
1283
01:39:06,542 --> 01:39:07,583
Lads.
1284
01:39:11,667 --> 01:39:13,125
What kind of a soldier are you?
1285
01:39:14,667 --> 01:39:16,083
We can make it a lot worse.
1286
01:39:16,875 --> 01:39:19,208
There's talk of a court martial
for cowardice.
1287
01:39:22,125 --> 01:39:23,167
Do it.
1288
01:39:23,667 --> 01:39:24,708
I don't care.
1289
01:39:25,542 --> 01:39:26,583
Not just for you.
1290
01:39:27,500 --> 01:39:28,583
For them.
1291
01:39:42,458 --> 01:39:44,375
You can have him court-martialed for that.
1292
01:39:45,583 --> 01:39:47,708
No, it would only kick up too much dust.
1293
01:39:49,917 --> 01:39:51,208
Anyway...
1294
01:39:51,292 --> 01:39:52,583
I think he owed me that one.
1295
01:39:54,208 --> 01:39:55,250
I was right to do it.
1296
01:39:58,583 --> 01:40:00,542
If I hadn't,
the world would be at war now.
1297
01:40:01,667 --> 01:40:04,125
Well, he doesn't understand
how the world works.
1298
01:40:29,500 --> 01:40:30,542
