1
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,275
- Hello. Grand Hotel.
- The line is busy.

2
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,239
Who is this?

3
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,595
I can connect you with room service.

4
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,638
Hello.

5
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,389
Is that the clinic?
This is Senf, the head porter, Grand Hotel.

6
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:54,197
How's my wife? Is she in pain?
Isn't the child coming soon?

7
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,395
Patience? Would you have patience?

8
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,677
This is Otto Kringelein.
Is that you, Heinrich?

9
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,310
Listen. I've got to talk very quickly.

10
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,595
Every minute costs 2 marks 90.

11
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,672
You know that will I made
before I had my operation?

12
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:10,512
I want you to tear it up.

13
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:16,157
I came to Berlin to see a great specialist
about that old trouble of mine, you know?

14
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,069
It's pretty bad,
and he says I haven't long to live.

15
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,039
I say, he says I won't live much longer!

16
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,518
No, it isn't nice to be told things like that.

17
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,509
You plague, bother, and save,
and all of a sudden you're dead.

18
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,477
I want to get something out of life.

19
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,155
I'm never going back
to Friedersdorf. Never.

20
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,756
I'm staying here at the Grand Hotel.
It's the most expensive hotel in Berlin.

21
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,750
All the best people stay here.

22
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,477
Even our big boss, Preysing,
is staying here.

23
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,637
I'm going to tell him someday
just exactly what I think of him.

24
00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,998
Hello, miss.

25
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,832
This is General Director Preysing.
I want my home in Friedersdorf, please.

26
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,429
Hurry.

27
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:12,233
Hello. Is that you, Mama?
How are the children?

28
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,549
What news have you
from the factory, dear?

29
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,516
Is your papa there? Good.

30
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,832
Hello, Papa, is that you?

31
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,118
The conference with the Saxonia company
is set for tomorrow morning, Papa.

32
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,752
If the merger does not go through,
we are in very bad shape, Papa.

33
00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:36,518
Everything depends upon news
from Manchester.

34
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,675
If the deal with the Manchester
Cotton Company does not go through...

35
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,913
we're facing a very bad situation, Papa.

36
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,794
I'm Suzette, Mme. Grusinskaya's maid.
Madame will not dance today.

37
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,678
She will not go to the rehearsal.
She did not sleep all night.

38
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,751
There is something preying on her mind.

39
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,479
I gave her a tablet, a Veronal.
She's sleeping now.

40
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,517
This is Baron von Geigern.

41
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,354
Look here, I need money,
or I can't stay at this hotel much longer.

42
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,751
I've laid the groundwork.
I know the exact position of her room.

43
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,990
I've made friends
with her ballet master, Pimenov.

44
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,312
Listen, Heinrich.
I've taken all my savings, everything...

45
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,318
and I�m going to enjoy spending it.
All of it.

46
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,119
It's terribly expensive here, Heinrich.
But it's wonderful.

47
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,710
I can't! I'll lose my job.
It's like being in jail.

48
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,439
Rely on me, Papa.
I will make this merger go through.

49
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:26,430
I never fail.

50
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,318
Poor Madame. Her mind is tortured.
I'm afraid she will...

51
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,835
I don't need advice, thanks very much.
I need money!

52
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,516
Music all the time. It's wonderful.

53
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,039
Grand Hotel.

54
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,595
People coming, going.

55
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,639
Nothing ever happens.

56
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,312
Mme. Grusinskaya will not want her car.

57
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,233
Mme. Grusinskaya's car
is not to be brought.

58
00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:27,990
- Here.
- Yes, Baron?

59
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,753
- Adolphus is very vexed with you.
- Yes, Baron?

60
00:05:30,840 --> 00:05:32,876
You didn't take him for his walk
this morning.

61
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,076
- Your door was locked.
- You might have knocked.

62
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,675
Don't you realize? That's why
they don't like little dogs in big hotels.

63
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,115
The doors are locked.
They can't get out. You see?

64
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,555
- Yes, Baron.
- I want you to take him for a good walk.

65
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:44,834
- You understand?
- Yes, Baron.

66
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,639
- Don't bring him back till he's exhausted.
- No, Baron.

67
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,153
Wait a minute.

68
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:51,798
It's quite all right.

69
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,474
- Hello?
- Is that for me?

70
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,676
No. Mme. Grusinskaya's car
is to be brought.

71
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,591
Mme. Grusinskaya's car is to be brought.

72
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,035
Good evening.
Will you send this to Mme. Grusinskaya?

73
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:02,917
- Yes, Baron.
- Thanks very much.

74
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,230
Good evening. My key, 168.

75
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,675
- Good evening, Mr. Pimenov.
- Good evening, Baron.

76
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,433
- How is the beautiful lady?
- Grusinskaya?

77
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,318
To tell the truth, Baron,
tonight we're a little bit nervous.

78
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:14,879
Were you at the theater last night?

79
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,951
I'm always there
when Grusinskaya dances.

80
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,430
- Last night was not so good.
- I thought she was splendid.

81
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,631
Is Mr. Preysing in? I'm Dr. Zinnowitz.

82
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,597
- Mr. Preysing. Visitor.
- Mr. Preysing.

83
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,830
- Here you are.
- Sorry to have kept you waiting.

84
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,150
Waiting? I've been waiting for news
from Manchester.

85
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:32,514
- No news yet?
- No news.

86
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,070
That's bad. You can't hold out unless
you merge with the Saxonia company.

87
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,754
- I know.
- The Saxonia company will never sign...

88
00:06:38,840 --> 00:06:41,308
unless your firm is tied up
with the Manchester people.

89
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:42,913
They don't have to. I told you that.

90
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,278
Yes, I know. I'm very much worried.
But I have my agent in Manchester.

91
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,476
I'm expecting a telegram any minute.

92
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,353
You have to create a good impression.
Seem optimistic.

93
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,512
Don't even mention Manchester
to the Saxonia crowd. Be clever.

94
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,955
No, I cannot do that, Dr. Zinnowitz.

95
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,713
I'm used to making my deals
on a solid basis.

96
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:03,718
I'm an honest businessman,
a good husband and a father.

97
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,315
I have nothing to conceal.
I could not live happily otherwise.

98
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,834
Yes, I know.
We'll go someplace and talk it over.

99
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,148
I'm expecting a stenographer.

100
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,312
Send her to Mr. Preysing's room. 166.

101
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:14,958
Yes, Dr. Zinnowitz.

102
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,555
- Letters for me?
- No, Doctor.

103
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,392
- Telegrams?
- No, Doctor.

104
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,471
He always seems to be waiting
for something...

105
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:24,629
but it never happens.

106
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,597
- No messages?
- No, Doctor.

107
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:28,674
Yes, I was in the war.

108
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,479
- Your bill, Baron.
- You're not beginning that again, are you?

109
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,630
Please pay some attention to me.
I've no time.

110
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,551
Kindly wait one moment, sir.

111
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,114
- Has anyone asked for me?
- No, Doctor.

112
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,919
We're holding the rooms now.
Five bedrooms, two sitting rooms.

113
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,958
- How many in your party?
- Let me see. My mother, two sisters...

114
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,237
- Really, this is an imposition.
- Sir, kindly wait one moment, please.

115
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:48,912
- That makes nine.
- Yes, madam.

116
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,072
- You wish to have the rooms held?
- Yes, please. And then...

117
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,115
Really, I won't wait any longer.
I've been here a very long time.

118
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,758
That's all right.

119
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,633
Look here, I waited three days
before I got a room at all.

120
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:02,950
When I finally got one,
what kind of a room was it?

121
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,271
- A very nice room, and inexpensive.
- I didn't ask you for a cheap room.

122
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:10,114
When I came here to live,
did I ask you for a cheap room? Did l?

123
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,999
- If you wait one moment, sir...
- I can't wait.

124
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,674
Every day is precious. Every hour...

125
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,830
- 176?
...every minute is precious.

126
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:22,357
I came to live here for two weeks,
maybe three. Heaven only knows.

127
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:26,592
I can pay whatever you want.
I'm tired and ill. I can't wait.

128
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,990
- The gentleman has a complaint?
- He is dissatisfied with Room 559.

129
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,152
Yes, I have a complaint.
I think it's a perfectly fair complaint.

130
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,676
I came here from a great distance
to live at the Grand Hotel.

131
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,716
I want a room, a big room.

132
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,596
The same kind of room
you'd give General Director Preysing.

133
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,909
I'm as good as Mr. Preysing.

134
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,037
I can pay for a room
the same as Mr. Preysing.

135
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,237
Would you stick him way off
in a corner in a little room...

136
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,356
where the water pipes go "pop" all day?

137
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,109
He can have my room.
It doesn't matter where I stay.

138
00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,553
That won't be necessary, Doctor.

139
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,428
Mr. Kringelein will take Room 176.
It's one of our most expensive rooms.

140
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,432
A large room on the front, and with a bar.

141
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,308
- With a private bar, exclusively mine.
- Certainly, sir.

142
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,233
Exactly what I want. That's very kind.
I'll pay for it now.

143
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,312
- No, I beg of you, sir.
- Pardon me, sir.

144
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,676
You dropped your little hat.

145
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:21,471
- Permit me.
- Thank you.

146
00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:25,109
Permit me. My name is Kringelein,
from Friedersdorf.

147
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,397
- Yes. I'm Baron von Geigern.
- A Baron.

148
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,715
Permit me to present Dr. Otternschlag.

149
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,394
A doctor. Doctor, I�m ill.

150
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,837
I know. When a man's collar
is an inch too big for him, I know he's ill.

151
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,559
I must go and dress now.

152
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,631
- I hope to see you at the theater.
- Surely, sir.

153
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,633
- Is this gentleman a baron, too?
- Unfortunately, no.

154
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,871
- Will Mr. Kringelein kindly sign here?
- I have signed once.

155
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,439
- Have you a minute?
- I told you not to come into the lobby.

156
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:58,669
Time's getting short.

157
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,672
Haven't I told you not talk to me
with a cigarette in your mouth?

158
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,557
- I want to speak...
- Later.

159
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:04,789
Yes, sir.

160
00:10:12,680 --> 00:10:14,591
This way, Mr. Kringelein.

161
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:18,674
Mr. Preysing.

162
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,194
- Will you go up to 166?
- 166.

163
00:10:21,680 --> 00:10:23,113
Hey, wait a minute!

164
00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:25,749
Hello?

165
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,793
Mme. Grusinskaya's car
is not to be brought.

166
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,549
She said, "On the other side of the fence."

167
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,831
Baron, you're incorrigible.

168
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:45,798
Poor Grusinskaya.

169
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,676
- How can she receive anyone? She can't.
- No, of course not.

170
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,991
Theater, hotels, trains.
Trains, hotels, theater.

171
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,672
- Quite so.
- I must toddle along.

172
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,389
- She'll be waking up and calling for me.
- I'm sorry, old fellow.

173
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:27,952
Who are you, please?

174
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:30,834
I'm the stenographer.

175
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,435
Then you will please wait outside, please.

176
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,349
Yes, sir.

177
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,517
Outside, please.

178
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,279
Take your time.

179
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:54,430
Listen, the burial fund and everything.
I've got it right here.

180
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,394
I'm going to live.
I'm going to have a good time while I can.

181
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,631
That's my creed, Kringelein:
A short life and a gay one.

182
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,193
A short life, Baron, and a gay one.
That's very true in my case.

183
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,635
You know, I know you won't think
I�m impertinent...

184
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,757
but perhaps you might have
a little better time...

185
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:16,670
if you bought some new clothes.
Started out fresh, so to speak.

186
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,037
Well, Baron, I didn't think
there was time for that.

187
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,793
But it's very kind of you
to take an interest.

188
00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:27,233
- Friends, then.
- Friends, Baron?

189
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,355
Thank you.

190
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,908
- Your room is ready, sir.
- Thank you.

191
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,838
I may speak to the Baron
anytime I see him?

192
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,791
Of course, Kringelein. Why not?

193
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,758
I mean,
when you're with your smart friends?

194
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,592
- I haven't any friends, Kringelein.
- You said me, Baron.

195
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,078
- Friend.
- Bless you, Kringelein.

196
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,753
See you later.

197
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,794
I've often wondered
what would happen to that porter...

198
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,314
if somebody jumped on him from here.

199
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,356
I'm sure I don't know.
Why don't you try it and find out?

200
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,470
- Thanks very much.
- Not at all.

201
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,789
- Don't you like dancing?
- No. Not with strangers.

202
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,199
- Never?
- Never.

203
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,194
- Thanks very much.
- Not at all.

204
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,237
- I say...
- Are you back again?

205
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,158
He must be an awful nice fellow.

206
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,629
- Who?
- Whoever's keeping you waiting.

207
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,759
Have you seen it?

208
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,990
- Seen what?
- It.

209
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,830
You don't mean 166?

210
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,593
That fat,
bulbous neighbor of mine, Mister...

211
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,829
- Preysing.
- Not you.

212
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,199
Oh, no.

213
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,149
Work.

214
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,471
- Does he sing?
- I hope not.

215
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:18,518
- Weren't you playing something?
- Yes. The typewriter.

216
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:23,399
- You're a little stenographess.
- Yes, I�m a little stenographess.

217
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,118
That's fascinating.

218
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,273
I don't suppose you'd take some dictation
from me sometime, would you?

219
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,676
- How about some tea, then?
- Tea would spoil my dinner.

220
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,759
I only have one meal a day,
and I�d rather hate to spoil it.

221
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,308
- Are you reducing?
- Reducing?

222
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,638
Me? Do I need to?

223
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,994
No. It's perfect.

224
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,631
I don't think I�ve ever...

225
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,995
But why one meal a day?

226
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,596
- Money. Ever heard of it?
- Yes, I have, vaguely.

227
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,798
But I always thought
little stenographers made little pennies.

228
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,155
- Very little.
- That's too bad.

229
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,557
Did you ever see a stenographer
with a decent frock on?

230
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,073
I have, indeed.

231
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,031
One she'd bought herself?

232
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,080
I see what you mean. Poor kid.

233
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,593
- I wish I were free tonight.
- Aren't you?

234
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,631
- What?
- Free.

235
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:24,998
No, darn it, I�m not.

236
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,238
But there's tomorrow.

237
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,078
- What time tomorrow?
- 5:00, downstairs.

238
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:35,708
Where downstairs?

239
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,109
In the funny yellow room
where they dance.

240
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,039
You're funny.

241
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,829
- Tomorrow?
- Of course.

242
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:46,555
Really?

243
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,991
We'll dance?

244
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,711
All right. We'll dance.

245
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,039
I wonder if I could remind the Baron
of his promise...

246
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,076
that I might speak to him at any time?

247
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,038
Mr. Kringelein, how are you making out
in the royal suite?

248
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,839
- Wonderfully, thanks to the Baron.
- Baron?

249
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,390
- Are you a baron?
- Strangely enough, yes.

250
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,273
- Then this isn't the Baroness?
- Strangely enough, no.

251
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,076
- Do I look like a baroness?
- You're attractive enough to be anything.

252
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,754
Thank you, Baron. You're nice.

253
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,555
- Thank you, Miss...
- Miss Flaemm.

254
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,878
- Miss Flaemm, this is Mr. Kringelein.
- Hello.

255
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,313
- They call me Flaemmchen.
- I like that better.

256
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,916
I wonder if the Baron would take
the trouble to come to my beautiful room?

257
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,991
I've ordered some caviar and champagne.

258
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,799
It's very expensive,
but that doesn't matter.

259
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,189
Perhaps Miss Flaemm would join us.

260
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,999
Have caviar, if you like,
but it tastes like herring to me.

261
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,436
It does, as a matter of fact.
I hadn't thought of that.

262
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,752
I'm sure my beautiful room...

263
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,912
will appeal to your artistic sense.

264
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,116
It has real velvet upholstery.

265
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,317
A-number one.
I'm in the textile trade, and I know.

266
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,519
I wonder if you'd like to see my bathroom?

267
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,997
It has hot and cold running water all day.
Nighttime, too.

268
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:18,991
I can have a bath anytime that I like.

269
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,274
- No.
- Yes.

270
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,390
Stenographer. Please.

271
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,876
Her master's voice.
Goodbye, Mr. Kringelein. Thank you.

272
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,995
Goodbye, funny one.
Don't forget tomorrow. 5:00.

273
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,275
- I won't. Goodbye, you.
- Goodbye.

274
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,918
- What's the matter, Mr. Kringelein?
- Preysing.

275
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,316
- You know him, don't you?
- I know him?

276
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:57,279
I've slaved in that man's factory
for years and years.

277
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,675
I know him through and through.

278
00:17:59,920 --> 00:18:02,673
- Sorry, old man.
- I beg your pardon, Baron.

279
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,834
Excuse me.
Won't you join me in my room?

280
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,512
I've ordered some champagne.

281
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,068
Listen, I�d love to. I'll join you a little later.

282
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,993
You know the gentleman
we met downstairs, with the face?

283
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,559
- Who? The doctor, you mean?
- Yes.

284
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,632
- He's a gay old blade, isn't he?
- He's wonderful.

285
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,120
Please, <i>Messieurs</i>, Madame is asleep.

286
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,073
See you later.

287
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,791
- Waiter!
- Please.

288
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:30,035
Sorry.

289
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,512
Has Madame slept well?

290
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,679
No, I�ve been awake, thinking.

291
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,635
It is time for the performance.

292
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,198
I think, Suzette...

293
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,439
I�ve never been so tired in my life.

294
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,313
Not even the Veronal
can help me to sleep.

295
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,637
Mme. Grusinskaya's car is to be brought.

296
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,990
- I can't dance tonight.
- It will pass, Madame.

297
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,273
Pearls are cold.

298
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,595
Everything is cold and finished.

299
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,193
So far away.

300
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,431
So threadbare.

301
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,478
The Russians. Saint Petersburg.

302
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,918
Imperial court. The Grand Duke Sergei...

303
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:29,748
Sergei...

304
00:20:31,120 --> 00:20:32,314
is dead.

305
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,433
It's all gone.

306
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,273
<i>Mon Dieu.</i> The pearls,
if they were to break...

307
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,834
The pearls don't break.
They hold together and bring me bad luck.

308
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,519
I hate them.

309
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,835
Orchids again, Madame!

310
00:20:53,120 --> 00:20:56,351
No card. I think they are perhaps
from the same young man.

311
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,989
He is at the end of the corridor.
Tall. He walks like a soldier.

312
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,039
Madame must have noticed
how often he rides in the elevator with us.

313
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:09,713
Yes? <i>Oui.</i>

314
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,510
- Madame, the car is here.
- Send it away. I shan't need it.

315
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,196
Mme. Grusinskaya will not require her car.

316
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,874
No. She'll not be going to the theater.

317
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,193
- Time for the performance.
- The performance.

318
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:28,518
Poor little Lisebeta.

319
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,672
She still has her stage fright. It will pass.

320
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,397
- It's not stage fright. It's something more.
- What? What is it?

321
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,597
- Last night there was no applause.
- There was.

322
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,156
That theater, half empty.
Dancing for those few.

323
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,073
I was frantic.

324
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,112
I finished, I waited, I listened...

325
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,718
but the applause did not come. Nothing.

326
00:22:01,120 --> 00:22:04,829
They're past, Pimenov.
They're dead. It's finished.

327
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:07,714
Meierheim.

328
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,719
Madame! In neglig�e
an hour before the performance.

329
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,078
What's this, you're canceling your car?
Do you know the time, or are we all mad?

330
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,630
Am I your manager?
Have we contracts? Have we obligations?

331
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:24,355
- Is this the time, or I am blind?
- I'm cancelling the engagement.

332
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,030
Madame is cancelling the engagement?

333
00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:31,351
Madame has chosen a funny time
for such a funny joke.

334
00:22:32,360 --> 00:22:35,955
Tonight there is a line
in front of the theater since 6:00.

335
00:22:36,360 --> 00:22:38,590
The house is jammed to the roof.

336
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:42,634
- Is it really full?
- Doesn't Meierheim say so?

337
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,799
Packed to the ceiling.
And such an audience:

338
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,718
The French ambassador,
American millionaires, Princess Retski...

339
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,028
All right.

340
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,629
- Hurry, Suzette.
- We'll wait outside.

341
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,755
Poor child.

342
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,997
- How is the house?
- Terrible.

343
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,311
After this, no more ballets for me.
Jazz. Just jazz.

344
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,392
If the house is empty again...
I don't know.

345
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,074
When she gets her paint on,
hears the music, she'll be fine.

346
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,469
I know these people. Here she is.

347
00:23:34,120 --> 00:23:36,475
Why did you bring the pearls?
I said I won't wear them.

348
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:37,834
- Why not?
- Take them back.

349
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,672
- Hurry up.
- We haven't time.

350
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,434
I don't think I�ll be able
to join you fellows after all.

351
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,636
- Why not? We'll wait.
- Come on.

352
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,197
- Lift, please.
- Wait.

353
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,234
Can I help?

354
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,040
You go ahead, old man.
I'll be there if I�m up for it.

355
00:24:00,120 --> 00:24:02,190
- We'll meet anyway.
- All right.

356
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,752
Mme. Grusinskaya's car.

357
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,113
Mme. Grusinskaya's car is to be brought.

358
00:24:28,360 --> 00:24:30,237
The car is here, Madame.

359
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,789
Hello. Fifth floor. Good evening.

360
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,592
It's just 9:30, madam.

361
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,950
Yes. I'll send them up at once.

362
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,278
- Is he in?
- The Baron?

363
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,628
- Yes.
- Yes.

364
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:14,119
Adolphus, I have something very serious
to discuss with you.

365
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,949
When you meet lady dogs on the street
that are not dachshunds...

366
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,000
you must exercise some self-control.

367
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,319
We have company.

368
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,748
You're late.
The dancer's gone to the theater.

369
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,512
Excuse me, I�m busy.

370
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,034
This is a very peculiar thing
for one gentleman to say to another...

371
00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:37,951
but as a matter of fact...

372
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,953
you're the one thing in the world
I really love.

373
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,953
She's gone to the theater.
Don't you know?

374
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,914
- What are you going to do?
- The pearls are in her room.

375
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,513
The others are getting suspicious.

376
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,989
I had Amsterdam on the phone.
They think you're scared.

377
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:53,798
I've been careful. I'm waiting my chance.

378
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,156
Waiting your chance? You're too much
of a gentleman, that's the trouble.

379
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,470
I told you I�d get those pearls tonight,
didn't l?

380
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,198
- Need any help?
- No.

381
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:02,754
Have you got the skeleton key?

382
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:03,989
- No.
- Why not?

383
00:26:04,120 --> 00:26:08,352
One reason: There's a perfectly charming
floor clerk outside who sees everything.

384
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,238
She'd see me enter her room.

385
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:11,878
- I can take care of her.
- How?

386
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,190
Chloroform on a handkerchief
while you're on the job.

387
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:15,952
- No.
- Why not?

388
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,397
Poor kid. In the first place,
it would give her a rotten headache.

389
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,517
I know all about chloroform.
I had it in the war.

390
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,432
Besides, she's rather pretty.

391
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,318
- She has a very nice line...
- You're no good for this business.

392
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,516
- No?
- To you it's just a joke.

393
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:36,911
I don't like your tone.

394
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,592
- No?
- No.

395
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:41,950
Get out. Leave her to me.

396
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,837
Be ready to leave on the night train
for Amsterdam.

397
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,713
- With the pearls.
- With the pearls.

398
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:50,874
Get out.

399
00:27:08,360 --> 00:27:10,999
There is a nasty man, Adolphus.

400
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:13,918
He'd eat his young.

401
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,919
"Both parties have fully agreed
that this merger can only result...

402
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,876
"in mutual advantages.

403
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,073
"Moreover..."

404
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,993
- Did you get that?
- Yes, I got it.

405
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,672
What did you say Zinnowitz called you?

406
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,029
Flaemmchen.

407
00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:46,759
- Flaemm? That's odd.
- What?

408
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:52,031
I mean, who were the gentlemen
you were talking to in the corridor?

409
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:53,633
Some people I know.

410
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,593
- You know a lot of gentlemen, don't you?
- Oh, not many.

411
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,712
I haven't time.
I'm busy now looking for a job.

412
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:01,957
I'd love to be in the movies.

413
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,310
Why the movies particularly? I mean...

414
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,438
"...only in mutual advantages.
Moreover..."

415
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,110
You're a very unusual stenographer.

416
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,998
You're pretty enough to do other things.

417
00:28:17,120 --> 00:28:19,236
- I do.
- What?

418
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,438
You see, I have a rather nice figure,
and I pose a lot.

419
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,272
Art studies, you know?

420
00:28:24,360 --> 00:28:26,749
Like that? I got 10 marks for it.

421
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,877
Is that you? You?

422
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,756
Well, isn't that interesting?

423
00:28:33,360 --> 00:28:35,510
- That's lovely.
- "Moreover..."

424
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,716
"Moreover, the possibility
of the successful accommodation...

425
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:45,314
"for the Cotton Company...

426
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,517
"should throw a great weight
into the balance..."

427
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,234
"Balance."

428
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,153
Your hands are sunburned, aren't they?

429
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,356
- Yes, that's from skiing.
- From skiing?

430
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,079
A friend of mine
took me to Switzerland last month.

431
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,038
To Switzerland?
That must have been very nice.

432
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,232
I went to Florence once, too.

433
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,118
- With the same man?
- No.

434
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:15,238
Don't misunderstand me, Miss Flaemm.

435
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,629
I'm a married man
and have grown-up daughters...

436
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,029
- All right.
...bigger than you are.

437
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:21,349
Come in.

438
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,431
That's all. Excuse me, please.

439
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,431
"Deal with Manchester definitely off."
Is that something terrible?

440
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,034
It doesn't mean that at all.

441
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,908
- That's a mistake. That's wrong.
- All right. I'm sorry.

442
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,272
- Do you want to go on?
- No.

443
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,391
You come back in the morning...

444
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,995
and we will go on with the dictation
before the conference.

445
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,993
If you find out you won't need me
in the morning...

446
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,559
I wish you'd please let me know...

447
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,871
because men like you who come in
and out of town are often unreliable.

448
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,509
After all, if I don't work tomorrow...
Well, good night.

449
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,159
"Deal definitely off."

450
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,991
Why, we could be smashed.

451
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,593
I'm going into 170 now, madam.

452
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,476
Hello? No. There's no one here.

453
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,192
You're late. What have you been doing?

454
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,909
Everyone says, "Come back."
They won't get out of their rooms.

455
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,836
Housekeeper speaking. No, she isn't here.

456
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,349
- Western Theater?
- Have you seen Madame?

457
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,199
Hello. Mr. Pimenov?

458
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,352
Have you found her?
No, she isn't here. Yes, I know...

459
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,473
Pimenov? What's happening?
No, I haven't found her.

460
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,518
Who's dancing? Duprez? How was it?

461
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,350
Good. All right. You keep the show going.

462
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,273
This trick is going to cost Madame
a suit for breach of contract.

463
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,669
- Madame is ill. Her nerves...
- What about my nerves?

464
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,718
Who is she?
Where does she think she is, Russia?

465
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,393
- I want to be alone.
- Where have you been?

466
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,348
I suppose I can cancel the Vienna contract.

467
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,078
I just want to be alone.

468
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:13,119
You're going to be very much alone,
my dear Madame. This is the end.

469
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,352
- Shall l... Does Madame wish...
- No, Suzette.

470
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:30,914
All right.

471
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,877
Western Theater, please.

472
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,869
Mr. Pimenov, the ballet master.
Grusinskaya.

473
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:57,878
Hello, Pimenov.

474
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:00,833
I'm at the hotel.

475
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,560
I couldn't go on. I couldn't.

476
00:36:03,720 --> 00:36:05,233
How is it going?

477
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,115
Who's dancing? Duprez?

478
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:11,833
Well, how is it?

479
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:18,595
I see.

480
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:21,871
They didn't miss me at all.

481
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:28,552
Good night, Pimenov.

482
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,274
They didn't even miss me.

483
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,154
Yes. I'm sorry. I've finished.

484
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:50,753
Finished.

485
00:36:55,720 --> 00:36:58,678
I always said I�d leave off
when the time came.

486
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:02,678
And who would trouble
about a Grusinskaya...

487
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:04,957
who dances no more?

488
00:37:07,240 --> 00:37:08,832
What would she do?

489
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:11,559
Grow orchids?

490
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,352
Keep white peacocks?

491
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:17,629
Die.

492
00:37:20,720 --> 00:37:24,315
That's what it comes to at last: To die.

493
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,352
I'm not going to wait.

494
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,031
Don't be alarmed, Madame.

495
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:36,269
Who are you?

496
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,828
Someone who happened
to be hiding in your room.

497
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:39,909
Why?

498
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,560
I often come here
when you're at the theater.

499
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:43,709
Why?

500
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,395
Just to be alone in your room,
to breathe the air you breathe.

501
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,475
There's no need to call for help.
Permit me. I couldn't help hearing.

502
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:56,030
I couldn't help knowing
what you were about to do just now.

503
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:01,672
I could have left by the window,
unnoticed, but I risked being discovered.

504
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,197
May I say something, Madame?
You're so beautiful.

505
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,077
It tore my heart
to see you in despair like that.

506
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,953
What on earth
have they been doing to you?

507
00:38:19,240 --> 00:38:22,949
You've everything to live for.
Please don't cry anymore.

508
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:27,518
You must forgive me.

509
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,355
I've had a very trying evening.

510
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,517
I was so alone,
and suddenly you were there.

511
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,350
Why do you look at me like that?

512
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,514
I had no idea you were so beautiful.

513
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:53,437
I'd like to take you in my arms
and not let anything happen to you, ever.

514
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,592
How tired you are.

515
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:58,673
Yes, tired.

516
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,755
And alone?

517
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:03,954
So alone.

518
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,515
You mustn't talk Russian to me.

519
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,957
Strange man.

520
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,357
Am I so strange to you?

521
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,831
Maybe not so strange now.

522
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,592
You know, once,
when the Grand Duke was alive...

523
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,397
I found a man hiding in my room,
a young officer.

524
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:32,350
Later on, they found him dead.

525
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,357
Well, that was Russia.

526
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:46,234
- Who are you?
- Someone who can love you, that's all.

527
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,077
Someone who has forgotten
everything else but you.

528
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,232
You could love me?

529
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:58,275
I've never seen anything in my life
as beautiful as you are.

530
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:10,193
You must go now.

531
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,994
I'm not going. You know I�m not going.

532
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:19,512
Please let me stay.

533
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:21,718
But I want to be alone.

534
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,995
That isn't true. You don't want to be alone.

535
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:27,390
You were in despair just now.
I can't leave you now.

536
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,877
You mustn't cry anymore.
You must forget.

537
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,033
Let me stay. Just for a little while.

538
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,078
Please let me stay.

539
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:45,951
For just a minute, then.

540
00:40:58,800 --> 00:40:59,949
No, Doctor.

541
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,195
The champagne,
and those girls and their dancing...

542
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:08,558
those beautiful silver things,
and the ice, and the caviar...

543
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,119
Oh, Doctor.

544
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:13,999
I don't care.

545
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,751
It's life. Life.

546
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,957
Mr. Kringelein, you are drunk.

547
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:22,991
- Good night.
- Good night.

548
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,878
- No. My room.
- Yes, Doctor.

549
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,080
Mr. Kringelein, you're drunk.

550
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:19,869
Life.

551
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,353
Grand Hotel.

552
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:40,155
Hello?

553
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:42,395
Grand Hotel.

554
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,038
Grand Hotel, good morning.

555
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,429
Baron von Geigern's room
does not answer.

556
00:43:46,720 --> 00:43:48,153
Yes, all right.

557
00:43:48,240 --> 00:43:51,038
Baron von Geigern's chauffeur calling?

558
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:55,392
Grand Hotel, good morning.

559
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:59,673
930, Dr. Otternschlag.
No, Doctor. No messages.

560
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,070
Grand Hotel, 820.

561
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:09,672
Grand Hotel, good morning.
Who is calling Mme. Grusinskaya?

562
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:14,273
Mr. Pimenov.
Mme. Grusinskaya cannot be disturbed.

563
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,079
Mr. Preysing's calls to 162 for the day.

564
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:18,957
- 162.
- The conference room.

565
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:20,628
That is interesting.

566
00:44:20,720 --> 00:44:23,871
A man in the textile industry
must know Manchester.

567
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:27,714
There's a lot of business to be done
with the Manchester Cotton Company.

568
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,593
They have the whole English market
right in their hands.

569
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,750
Have you any connections
with Manchester?

570
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,149
We have a lot of good connections
in England.

571
00:44:35,240 --> 00:44:37,959
- Actually...
- I mean, with the Manchester people.

572
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:41,510
Please, we are here to discuss the merger.
Let us begin at the beginning.

573
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:42,669
- Yes.
- Thank you.

574
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,352
Is Baron von Geigern in?

575
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:48,675
Too bad.

576
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,718
Since June 11 this year,
when the first negotiation...

577
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:52,949
I met him yesterday.

578
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,634
...between our respective firms...

579
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:56,909
I�ve got a date.

580
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,513
...that this merger can result...

581
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,033
About 5:00.

582
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:01,838
...all of us.
- Dancing.

583
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,872
- All we want to know about is Manchester.
- Just a second.

584
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,389
Before I get through,
I�m laying before you here...

585
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,675
the last general statement of the concern.

586
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,354
The capital, the plant, the machinery...

587
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:15,597
For instance, we'll take mop rags.

588
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,319
- I'll call you back.
- All we want to know about is Manchester.

589
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,755
Yes, Mr. Preysing,
that's what we want to know.

590
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,229
I would rather wait for Justice Zinnowitz...

591
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,914
before I commit myself, please.

592
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,432
Now, to go ahead with the merger.

593
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:34,155
You realize...

594
00:45:34,240 --> 00:45:38,711
that this merger is a great advantage
to the Saxonians, of course.

595
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:40,831
Now, let's talk like adults.

596
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:44,469
- When you first approached us...
- We did not approach you.

597
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,313
This letter filed on September 15
indicates you approached us.

598
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,312
That letter is a response
to a tentative feeler sent out by you.

599
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,152
- Please.
- Tentative, my foot!

600
00:45:52,240 --> 00:45:54,310
A month before this,
your old father-in-law...

601
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,029
- comes to me privately, and scratches...
- Scratched?

602
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,839
- Why, we did not take the initiative!
- You did...

603
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,514
- We did not take the initiative!
- You took the initiative!

604
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,239
Gentlemen, I see the conference
has already begun.

605
00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:09,312
- I'm glad you're here, Justice Zinnowitz.
- Good morning.

606
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,432
- Thank you very much.
- I beg your pardon, please.

607
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,593
Excuse me, please. I am glad you're here.

608
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,828
These gentlemen have cross words.
Would you try, Justice Zinnowitz...

609
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:23,990
- and iron out the situation here?
- Certainly.

610
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,116
- Right here, on the top.
- If you will allow me.

611
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:27,235
Thank you.

612
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,956
Well, gentlemen, the situation
seems to be perfectly clear.

613
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:34,112
- Yes. And how clear is Manchester?
- Manchester?

614
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,668
Have you said anything
about Manchester, Mr. Preysing?

615
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:40,469
Why, no, sir. I cannot commit myself
at this time about Manchester.

616
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:44,917
Quite right. Well, gentlemen,
since June 11 of this year...

617
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,759
when the first negotiations for a merger
were entered...

618
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,274
Now we're going to begin
at the beginning again.

619
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,237
As you remember it,
when you approached us...

620
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,278
- We did not approach you.
- I'm sorry, you did approach us!

621
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,351
We did not approach you.

622
00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,715
- You approached us!
- Please wait.

623
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:03,720
Can you imagine 100 girls
in a ballet school...

624
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:07,713
each thinking she would become
the most famous dancer in the world?

625
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,118
I was ambitious then.

626
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:15,795
We were drilled like little soldiers.
No rest, no stopping.

627
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:21,475
I was little, slim, but hard as a diamond.

628
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:24,916
Then I became famous soon.

629
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,429
But why am I telling you all this?

630
00:47:31,240 --> 00:47:33,629
Last night I didn't know you at all.

631
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,398
- Who are you, really?
- What?

632
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,516
I don't even know your name.

633
00:47:45,240 --> 00:47:48,676
I am Felix Benvenuto Frihern von Geigern.

634
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,391
My mother called me Flix.

635
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,110
No. Flix.

636
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,078
That's sweet.

637
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,636
And how do you live?
What kind of person are you?

638
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,709
I'm a prodigal son,
the black sheep of a white flock.

639
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:08,039
I shall die on the gallows.

640
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:10,558
- Really?
- Really.

641
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:13,638
I haven't a bit of character. None at all.

642
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:15,358
- No?
- No. Really.

643
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,871
You know, when I was a little boy
I was taught to ride and be a gentleman.

644
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:23,670
Then at school, to pray and lie.

645
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:27,352
And then in the war, to kill and hide.

646
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:29,159
That's all.

647
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,311
And what do you do now?

648
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:36,110
Now I�m a gambler...

649
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,394
running at large, like a happy pig...

650
00:48:39,720 --> 00:48:42,518
devouring everything of life
that pleases me.

651
00:48:43,240 --> 00:48:45,117
I really belong in jail.

652
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:48,479
What a picture.

653
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:51,551
And what else?

654
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:54,314
What else?

655
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:18,110
I'm also a criminal and a hotel thief.

656
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,197
That's not a funny joke.

657
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:26,236
You must believe one thing.

658
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:28,996
You must believe that I love you.

659
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:33,075
That I�ve never known love like this
until now.

660
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:39,072
What is it, Flix? What's the matter?

661
00:49:42,240 --> 00:49:43,559
Hotel thief.

662
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:51,869
No.

663
00:49:57,720 --> 00:50:00,029
Did you come here just for these?

664
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,393
That's horrible.

665
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,759
You may keep the pearls.
I don't want them.

666
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:10,591
I will not denounce you.

667
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:14,471
Hadn't you better go now?

668
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:17,351
I wanted money desperately.

669
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,477
Can't you understand that?
That's why I wanted your pearls.

670
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:21,675
I was threatened.

671
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:25,036
I was desperately in need
of a certain big sum of money.

672
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:27,919
I've been following you. I've admired you.

673
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:32,079
But last night, at last,
I managed to come into your room.

674
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:33,914
And now...

675
00:50:36,720 --> 00:50:37,914
And now?

676
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:41,510
I couldn't go through with it.

677
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,318
Don't you understand?

678
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:50,314
Don't you?

679
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:49,190
- Who?
- Suzette, Madame.

680
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:50,998
- Good morning.
- Good morning, Madame.

681
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:52,832
- Did Madame sleep well?
- Yes, Suzette.

682
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:56,196
Come back in five minutes. I'll call you.
Five minutes.

683
00:51:56,720 --> 00:51:58,472
There, it begins.

684
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,513
Hello, Pimenov. Good morning.

685
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:07,393
Darling.

686
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:12,073
Beautiful morning. Yes, very well.

687
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:16,117
Rehearsals? All right,
you can come. Goodbye.

688
00:52:18,720 --> 00:52:22,395
I have to go to rehearsals.
Our train leaves early tomorrow morning.

689
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,516
- Our train?
- Yes, for Vienna.

690
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,795
- Vienna?
- You're coming with me.

691
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,030
- Of course you are.
- But I can't.

692
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,634
I'd give my soul to go, but I can't.

693
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:35,395
- Why couldn't you?
- I'll try. There might be some way.

694
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:41,430
- Flix, is it money?
- Of course.

695
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,477
I have money.
I have enough for both of us.

696
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,471
No. That would spoil everything.

697
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:49,872
I'll manage somehow. I'll get it.
I have a whole day. I'll be on the train.

698
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:55,308
I shall dance, and you'll be with me.

699
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,912
Then we'll go to Tremezzo.
I have a villa there.

700
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:00,758
The sun will shine.

701
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:04,556
I'll take a vacation,
six weeks, eight weeks. I don't know.

702
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:06,551
We'll be happy and lazy.

703
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:11,309
And then we'll go to South America.
It will be divine.

704
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,877
- Be careful going to your room.
- I'll be on the train with the money.

705
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,029
Don't do anything foolish.

706
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,430
- I'm alarmed about you.
- Don't worry. I'll be on the train.

707
00:53:55,720 --> 00:53:59,076
Hurry, Suzette.
A bright dress. It's a sunny morning.

708
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:07,115
Meierheim is cancelling
the Vienna engagement.

709
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:11,318
Meierheim is mad.
You are mad. We're all mad.

710
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:13,513
Suzette, come.

711
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,955
Gru, you're positively radiant.

712
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:27,151
Pimenov, I have an idea, a ballet.

713
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:30,910
It must have mad music...
But I�ll speak with you later.

714
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:32,353
You go to the theater.

715
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:36,228
I want a full rehearsal,
ballet, full orchestra...

716
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,356
- Come, Suzette.
- But, Madame...

717
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:48,873
Will you get me
Baron von Geigern, please?

718
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:53,677
Yes. Baron von Geigern.

719
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:04,874
<i>Ch�ri</i>, it's you.

720
00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:08,279
No, nothing.

721
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:10,797
Good morning.

722
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:14,069
No.

723
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:17,318
Just to tell you that I�m happy.

724
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:42,194
I'll have something sweet and cold, please.

725
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:44,919
- Louisiana Flip, sir?
- Louisiana Flip?

726
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,878
Yes, that sounds very nice. Thank you.

727
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,960
What do you do in the Grand Hotel?

728
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,591
Eat, sleep, loaf around...

729
00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,154
flirt a little, dance a little.

730
00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:01,719
A hundred doors leading to one hall.

731
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:05,438
No one knows anything
about the person next to them.

732
00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:10,316
And when you leave,
someone occupies your room...

733
00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:12,238
lies in your bed.

734
00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:14,959
That's the end.

735
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:21,194
Let me say again, for the tenth time...

736
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,271
you people were quite ready
for the merger.

737
00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:27,318
You declared yourself fully agreed
on all the terms.

738
00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,153
Why should the signing of these articles
be suddenly held up?

739
00:56:30,240 --> 00:56:33,755
I'll admit that we were at one time
anxious for this merger.

740
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:37,116
But since then, the Preysing Company
has fallen on evil days.

741
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,236
- Evil days?
- Very evil days.

742
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:40,753
Say, listen.

743
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:42,876
Haven't I just shown you here...

744
00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:45,554
what my firm exports to the Balkans?

745
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:49,997
50,000 marks worth of mop rags
each and every year.

746
00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,036
Mop rags.

747
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:54,315
We're interested
in something entirely different.

748
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:55,958
- What?
- Shall I tell them again?

749
00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:57,758
Why waste time? It's getting late.

750
00:56:57,840 --> 00:56:59,876
- You see...
- We're going home.

751
00:57:01,240 --> 00:57:04,232
But Mr. Preysing has too great a regard
for the certainty...

752
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:07,437
You've been talking all day.
You're hoarse now.

753
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:09,238
Good night, Preysing.

754
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,278
You have decided against the merger?

755
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:15,477
- Yes.
- The deal is off?

756
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:16,675
Yes.

757
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:19,559
- Here's your coat, sir.
- Thank you.

758
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:27,875
- Here, let me help you.
- Thank you.

759
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,229
Preysing, I hope you pull through.

760
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,676
It's a very bad time
to be in such a crisis. Sorry.

761
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,517
- Dining in town?
- No, I have to get my train.

762
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:47,195
Here! So you're breaking off
the negotiations.

763
00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:48,708
All right.

764
00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,718
But don't you think for one moment
that I�m such a fool...

765
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:55,110
as not to have something
to say about Manchester.

766
00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:57,797
What? Manchester?

767
00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,792
No. The deal is over.
Good night, gentlemen.

768
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:05,032
If you have something definite
to say about Manchester, we might...

769
00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:09,318
I�m at liberty to announce at this time
that the deal between my firm...

770
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:11,311
and the Manchester Cotton Company...

771
00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:13,994
has been successfully negotiated.

772
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:19,075
Are you joking?
Under those circumstances...

773
00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:21,674
- Where are those articles?
- I thought it was all over.

774
00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:23,910
Under these circumstances,
it's a different matter.

775
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:27,595
Yes, but under these circumstances
we might refuse to sign now.

776
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:31,030
Now, come, come.
Business is business. Now, I�ll sign in here.

777
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:34,553
Preysing, you sign here.

778
00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:37,520
We should celebrate this
with a bottle of wine.

779
00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:40,478
Good night. We'll see you next week
and settle all the details.

780
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,198
- Next week. Yes.
- Come on.

781
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,472
Good night, Preysing. You're a sly one.

782
00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:48,239
- Dr. Waitz?
- Yes.

783
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:51,718
I'll be at your office tomorrow.

784
00:58:57,680 --> 00:58:59,352
You let me talk myself hoarse...

785
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:02,159
and you had Manchester
signed up all the time. Why?

786
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:06,829
- The deal has been put through.
- Yeah.

787
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:10,310
The deal has been put through.

788
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:13,269
- What's the matter with you?
- Here.

789
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:20,557
"Deal with Manchester definitely...

790
00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:22,955
"definitely off." Preysing!

791
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,838
Yes, if that's what the world wants, bluff...

792
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:28,191
I can be just as big a bluff as anyone.

793
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:31,477
You must go to England yourself at once
and really see this through!

794
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:33,710
Yes, I must go to England.
I was desperate.

795
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,951
I didn't know what I was doing.
Now I don't care.

796
00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:39,873
This thing goes to a man's head.

797
00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:45,313
- What you need is some relaxation.
- Yeah!

798
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:48,557
That's it! I want to break loose.

799
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:52,235
I want to drink.
I want to maybe go dancing.

800
00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:53,548
I want to do anything.

801
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:55,596
I can understand that, after this...

802
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,478
Yes, go on, say it. My lie.

803
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:03,836
But that's the first time in 30 years that...

804
01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:21,039
Where is my stenographer? Miss Flaemm?

805
01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:23,111
- What do you want with her?
- Pardon?

806
01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:25,634
- What do you want?
- What?

807
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:30,040
Here. I want to do some dictating.

808
01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,270
I want to tell my father-in-law about...

809
01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:34,669
She had an engagement
in the Yellow Room at 5:00.

810
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:36,079
She was in a hurry.

811
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:37,798
- In the Yellow Room?
- Yes.

812
01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:47,196
Do you think that she's pretty?

813
01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:51,599
- Pretty as a picture.
- You think so?

814
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:53,875
Let's go find her. We'll go get a drink.

815
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:56,076
- You come along, Zinnowitz.
- Yes.

816
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:57,991
I don't know much about women.

817
01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:01,709
I've been married for 28 years, you know.
Come along, Zinnowitz.

818
01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:06,552
- Good evening, Mr. Kringelein.
- Good evening, Miss Flaemm.

819
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,995
- Have you seen the Baron?
- I'm waiting for him.

820
01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:11,913
I've been with him all day.
We had a marvelous time.

821
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:15,834
We were in a motor car,
100 miles an hour, in an airplane.

822
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:17,990
- Really?
- We had a marvelous time.

823
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:22,114
My, how you've changed.
You look awfully nice.

824
01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:25,078
Thank you, Miss Flaemm.
I had a manicure, too.

825
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:26,434
Really?

826
01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:30,312
I'm sorry, Miss Flaemm.
Would you have something to drink?

827
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,995
A Louisiana Flip. Louisiana Flip, please.

828
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:36,594
- Absinthe.
- Oh, that.

829
01:01:43,880 --> 01:01:47,555
- You like music, Mr. Kringelein?
- Yes. I love it.

830
01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:49,437
It's so stimulating.

831
01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:51,476
- A man could...
- A man could what?

832
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:55,190
- He could do almost anything.
- He could.

833
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,111
- Hello, funny one.
- Hello.

834
01:01:57,200 --> 01:01:59,953
- Sorry I�m late.
- Baron, won't you have a drink?

835
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:04,636
- A Louisiana Flip.
- Mr. Kringelein, how are you now?

836
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:06,870
I feel a little strange, Baron.

837
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:09,155
- I'd given you up.
- Sorry.

838
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:12,710
Please, Baron, do have a drink.
A Louisiana Flip.

839
01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:16,236
No, thanks, old man.
I'm keeping my head clear.

840
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:18,793
- Dance, then?
- What?

841
01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:21,348
- Dance?
- Yes, I�d love to.

842
01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:25,997
- Watch this, will you, Mr. Kringelein?
- I really ought to learn to dance.

843
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:28,398
I suppose it's very important.

844
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:31,472
Yes, you should learn
as quickly as the time allows.

845
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:35,276
Believe me, Mr. Kringelein,
a man who is not with a woman...

846
01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:36,914
is a dead man.

847
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:40,356
- What have you been doing all day?
- Chasing around.

848
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:44,400
- Chasing what?
- Money.

849
01:02:48,080 --> 01:02:51,993
- You were very different yesterday.
- That was yesterday.

850
01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:55,113
I served as a surgeon in the Great War...

851
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:58,313
till the end.

852
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:01,991
Grenade in my face.

853
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:06,517
I carried diphtheria bacilli
in the wound till 1920.

854
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:09,995
Isolated two years.

855
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:14,068
- Drink, Mr. Kringelein.
- Yes.

856
01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:18,799
That was lovely.

857
01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:22,317
Listen, funny one,
do you want to make a man happy?

858
01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:26,874
- I'd love to.
- Dance with old Kringelein.

859
01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:31,673
Why?

860
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:39,318
I don't know. He's a dear old duck.
I feel rather sorry for him, don't you?

861
01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:44,750
You know, you're not a bit
like you were yesterday.

862
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:46,634
Yesterday?

863
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:49,997
No, perhaps not.

864
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:55,916
I fell in love last night.

865
01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:57,999
The real thing.

866
01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:02,989
There's no real thing. It just doesn't exist.

867
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:06,509
I thought that, too.

868
01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:08,870
But now I know that it does.

869
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:11,752
It's wonderful.

870
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:14,313
Come along.

871
01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:17,710
- Dance with old Kringelein?
- Of course. Anything for you.

872
01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:18,630
You're sweet.

873
01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:24,270
Here you are. I must speak with you.

874
01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:27,796
- Presently, Mr. Preysing.
- No, now. This is very urgent.

875
01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:31,111
This lady has urgent business with me
at the moment.

876
01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:34,309
Insolence. Berlin manners.

877
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:41,110
Good evening, Mr. Preysing.
You're staying here, too?

878
01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:45,193
- I'm sorry, but I cannot place you.
- Kringelein, at the plant.

879
01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:46,793
One of our agents.

880
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:51,590
No. Assistant bookkeeper,
Room 23, Building C, third floor.

881
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:55,436
- I am away, sick.
- That's very interesting.

882
01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:57,108
Good day.

883
01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:04,949
Would you like to dance with me,
Mr. Kringelein?

884
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:07,270
Miss Flaemm, I�ve never danced in public.

885
01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:10,272
- Come along and try it.
- I'd be afraid.

886
01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:12,954
There's nothing to be afraid of.
You'll love it.

887
01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:17,035
Miss Flaemmchen, I must speak to you.
This is about a dictating job.

888
01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:20,237
- When do we start? Tomorrow morning?
- No, right now.

889
01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:24,390
We were just going to dance.

890
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:27,278
Do you know each other?
Mr. Kringelein, Mr. Preysing.

891
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:31,833
Mr. Kringelein would be a good friend
and not accept your invitation to dance.

892
01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:36,871
I couldn't think of not accepting
the invitation to dance.

893
01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:40,950
I understood you to say
that you reported to our plant ill...

894
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:43,952
and you're here in Berlin
indulging in diversions...

895
01:05:44,040 --> 01:05:46,190
which are very much beyond your means?

896
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,199
This is very extraordinary, Mr. Kringelein.

897
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:51,111
I think we should look over your books.

898
01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:54,158
Come along now, children. No fighting.
Save that for the office.

899
01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:56,435
Does the world belong to you,
Mr. Preysing?

900
01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:58,158
Haven't I got any right to live?

901
01:05:58,240 --> 01:05:59,912
I will wait 10 minutes for you.

902
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,151
If you're not back, it will be necessary
to engage someone else.

903
01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:05,071
What happened to your dance?

904
01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:07,628
We're going now, thank you, Baron.
Come along.

905
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:10,908
I shall remember this, Mr. Kringelein.

906
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:14,197
Let the poor devil alone.
Death's staring him in the face.

907
01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:16,510
I did not ask your advice.

908
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:19,470
I think you'd better go away.

909
01:06:19,560 --> 01:06:21,949
We will see
who will remain here the longer.

910
01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:24,076
Baron von Geigern, please.

911
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,513
Mr. Kringelein, you must look at my face,
and not the floor.

912
01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:31,669
Yes.

913
01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:41,038
- Why, you're trembling.
- I never danced in public before.

914
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,834
- You dance beautifully.
- Thank you.

915
01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:47,913
- That's right.
- I'm happy, Miss Flaemm.

916
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:49,831
Are you really?

917
01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:52,719
For the first time in my life, I�m happy.

918
01:06:54,560 --> 01:06:55,993
Are you all right?

919
01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:59,152
Yes. Excuse me, I just stopped a second.

920
01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:01,071
All right. Here we go.

921
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:07,398
I'm very tired. Do you mind if we stop?

922
01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:08,913
Thank you.

923
01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:19,915
- I must go back to Mr. Preysing now.
- Must you?

924
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:22,753
Yes, business.
One has to earn a living, you know.

925
01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:24,592
Not you, Miss Flaemm.

926
01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:27,148
Just another desk slave. Money.

927
01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:30,270
- I'm glad you're here, Miss Flaemm.
- Here I am.

928
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,351
- Did you enjoy your dance?
- Yes, thank you.

929
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:35,193
- Excuse me. Go away, please.
- Where's the Louisiana Flip?

930
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:38,158
- Would you like a little cognac?
- Yes. You wanted to see me?

931
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:41,357
Yes. You may go, Mr. Kringelein.

932
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:45,149
Mr. Preysing, I am not taking orders
from you here.

933
01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:47,151
What is this insolence? Please go away.

934
01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:50,198
You think you have free license
to be insulting?

935
01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:52,032
Believe me, you have not.

936
01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:55,750
You think you're superior,
but you're quite an ordinary man...

937
01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:57,398
even if you did marry money...

938
01:07:57,480 --> 01:07:59,710
and people like me
have got to slave for you...

939
01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:01,438
for 320 marks a month.

940
01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:06,036
- Go away, please. You are annoying.
- You don't like to see me enjoying myself.

941
01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:09,556
When a man's working himself to death,
that's what he's paid for.

942
01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:12,473
You don't care if a man
can live on his wages or not.

943
01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:16,599
You have a very regular scale of wages,
and there's the sick fund for you.

944
01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:19,399
What a scale, and what a fund.

945
01:08:19,480 --> 01:08:21,357
When I was sick for four weeks...

946
01:08:21,440 --> 01:08:23,749
you wrote me a letter
telling me I�d be discharged...

947
01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:25,637
if I were sick any longer.

948
01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:27,517
Did you write me that letter or not?

949
01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:30,478
I have no idea of the letters that I write.

950
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:33,552
I know that you are here
in the Grand Hotel, living like a lord.

951
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,154
You are probably an embezzler.

952
01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,151
- An embezzler!
- Yes, an embezzler.

953
01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,515
You are going to take that back!

954
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:42,955
Right here in the presence
of this young lady!

955
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,918
Who do you think you're talking to?
You think I�m dirt?

956
01:08:46,040 --> 01:08:48,713
If I�m dirt, you're a lot dirtier...

957
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:51,394
Mr. Industrial Magnate Preysing!

958
01:08:51,480 --> 01:08:54,119
- You're discharged. Get out!
- You can't do that to him.

959
01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:57,033
I don't know the man or what he wants.
I never saw him before.

960
01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:58,348
I know you.

961
01:08:58,440 --> 01:09:01,034
I've kept your books for you,
and I know all about you.

962
01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:05,079
If one of your employees
was half as stupid in a small way...

963
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:07,879
- as you are in a big way...
- What do you mean?

964
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:10,474
Gentlemen, please! Please!

965
01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:11,959
Stop that!

966
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:17,230
- You're discharged! Do you hear?
- Wait!

967
01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:24,238
You can't discharge me.
I'm my own master...

968
01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:26,675
for the first time in my life.

969
01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:30,630
You can't discharge me. I'm sick.

970
01:09:31,040 --> 01:09:33,793
I'm going to die. You understand?

971
01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:38,312
I'm going to die, and nobody
can do anything to me anymore.

972
01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:41,073
Nothing can happen to me anymore.

973
01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:46,110
Before I can be discharged, I�ll be dead!

974
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:53,037
The man's crazy.
I don't know him. He's annoying.

975
01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:55,435
- Baron!
- Excuse me.

976
01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:58,348
- What is it? What's happened to him?
- He's ill.

977
01:09:58,440 --> 01:10:03,150
- I'm sorry, Baron.
- Poor old Kringelein. You're all right.

978
01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:06,073
- Give him some whiskey.
- No.

979
01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:10,189
A Louisiana Flip.

980
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,559
Five minutes to 7:00.
Time drags when you're tired.

981
01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:24,994
I was in the hospital the whole night,
walking up and down the corridor.

982
01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:28,436
They wouldn't let me see her.
And I have to stay chained to this desk.

983
01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:30,636
Did you find that young lady
for Mr. Preysing?

984
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:33,280
- His secretary. Yes, they're over there.
- That's all.

985
01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:36,789
His secretary.

986
01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:39,470
Come on, waiter.

987
01:10:41,480 --> 01:10:43,948
- Would you like a little cognac?
- No, nothing.

988
01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:44,950
Nothing?

989
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:47,315
- One cognac for me.
- Very good, sir.

990
01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:50,671
You wanted to see me?

991
01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:53,115
Yes. Pardon me. I must go to England.

992
01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:56,510
It's very important. I must go at once.
I have some very big deals...

993
01:10:56,600 --> 01:10:59,398
involving hundreds of thousands
of marks...

994
01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:03,793
and I thought
I would take along a secretary...

995
01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:06,269
to take care of my correspondence.

996
01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:07,998
You know what I mean.

997
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:11,072
I understood you to say
that you travelled and...

998
01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:14,638
You understand?

999
01:11:15,480 --> 01:11:17,869
I understand you perfectly, Mr. Preysing.

1000
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,878
What would you want for such a trip?

1001
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:24,554
- Marks? You mean money?
- Yes.

1002
01:11:25,440 --> 01:11:27,476
I don't know. I'd have to figure it up.

1003
01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:29,869
I'd need clothes and shoes...

1004
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:32,719
and it's cold in England in March.
And I�d need a suit.

1005
01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:36,270
- You'd want me to look nice?
- Of course, Miss Flaemm.

1006
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:38,669
Yes, I thought you would.

1007
01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:42,197
I should say 1,000 marks.

1008
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:45,279
- Is that too much?
- No.

1009
01:11:46,400 --> 01:11:49,392
That is all right.

1010
01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:56,076
Would you like me
to get you a room here...

1011
01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:58,350
at the hotel? Now?

1012
01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:02,510
- And that would...
- Hello, Baron.

1013
01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:05,876
- Would you please pay some attention?
- I'm paying attention.

1014
01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:08,994
- How do you do?
- Insolence.

1015
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:10,354
You mean the Baron?

1016
01:12:10,440 --> 01:12:13,876
- Baron what?
- What?

1017
01:12:19,480 --> 01:12:21,072
He's a gentleman.

1018
01:12:36,440 --> 01:12:38,510
Is the Baron tired?

1019
01:12:40,720 --> 01:12:42,358
No, not tired exactly.

1020
01:12:42,440 --> 01:12:45,318
I thought this evening
we could go to the casino.

1021
01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:48,551
That place we passed
with the wonderful bright lights.

1022
01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:52,990
Kringelein, I�d adore it.
I can't go anywhere.

1023
01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:55,156
- What?
- I'm broke.

1024
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:58,910
- No, you're joking.
- Yes. Isn't it odd?

1025
01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:01,996
A baron, broke.

1026
01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:05,758
Excuse me, old man.

1027
01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:15,673
- I quit.
- You can't.

1028
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:17,751
I'm not getting those pearls,
neither are you.

1029
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:19,637
- What about the money?
- I'll pay you back.

1030
01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:22,518
- How?
- I have an idea working in my head.

1031
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:24,750
You might find a bullet through that head.

1032
01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:28,310
If you do that you'll get nothing,
except maybe the police after you.

1033
01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:29,794
Mme. Grusinskaya's car!

1034
01:13:29,880 --> 01:13:33,873
If you wait, I�ll pay you back your 5,000...

1035
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:36,432
I�ll see you later.

1036
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:41,633
Go on, Suzette.

1037
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:46,788
Are you coming to the theater?
I shall dance tonight. How I shall dance!

1038
01:13:46,880 --> 01:13:48,836
I want to feel that you're there.

1039
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:54,991
I came too far.

1040
01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:01,118
- I'm worried about you.
- Don't be.

1041
01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:02,758
- You'll be on the train?
- Yes.

1042
01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:04,831
- Until then.
- Bless you.

1043
01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:20,913
- Was the Baron joking?
- What?

1044
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:24,629
- Is it really true?
- What are you talking about, Kringelein?

1045
01:14:24,720 --> 01:14:27,792
Is the Baron really in financial straits?

1046
01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:35,514
To tell you the truth, I must get
some money somehow right away.

1047
01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:38,831
- If the Baron will permit me.
- What?

1048
01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:43,119
I'd be awfully glad to oblige.
You've been very decent to me.

1049
01:14:43,200 --> 01:14:44,315
Three hundred?

1050
01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:54,869
If I could get into a game of some kind,
I think I might win.

1051
01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:57,834
Gambling! I'd love that!

1052
01:14:57,920 --> 01:15:01,390
I've got over 6,800 marks right here.

1053
01:15:01,480 --> 01:15:03,436
If we could scare up some men to play.

1054
01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:06,751
- We could go up to my room.
- That's a grand idea.

1055
01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:08,195
Come on.

1056
01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:21,512
- Cab, miss?
- What?

1057
01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:24,592
- Cab?
- No, thanks. I'll walk.

1058
01:15:28,120 --> 01:15:30,156
- 4,000 marks.
- 4,000!

1059
01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:31,150
Too high?

1060
01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:35,113
4,000 marks.

1061
01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:41,838
- Want a card?
- Please.

1062
01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:46,114
Thanks.

1063
01:15:48,920 --> 01:15:51,480
- 8,000 marks.
- 8,000!

1064
01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:55,269
- I take it all.
- That's a lot of money.

1065
01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:57,272
I need it, thanks.

1066
01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:04,632
- Want a card?
- Please.

1067
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:13,353
Baccarat.

1068
01:16:13,440 --> 01:16:14,668
Too bad there.

1069
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:19,593
- Now, Mr. Kringelein.
- Baron!

1070
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:21,756
Will you help me again, please?

1071
01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,035
I think you'd better help me, Kringelein.

1072
01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:27,317
- Make your bets, gentlemen.
- How much shall I bet?

1073
01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:30,678
- How much is left in the bank?
- 2,500 uncovered.

1074
01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:33,553
- Do you feel like going that far?
- All that money, Baron?

1075
01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:37,189
Come on, you're killing them tonight.
Go ahead, old man.

1076
01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:38,349
Do you want a card?

1077
01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:39,919
What have you got?

1078
01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:43,030
The old highwayman. He has nine again.

1079
01:16:44,360 --> 01:16:46,555
I win again!

1080
01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:50,112
Come on, gentlemen. Please drink! Drink.

1081
01:16:50,240 --> 01:16:52,470
It's wonderful and sweet champagne!

1082
01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:56,348
Mr. Kringelein, care to take the bank?

1083
01:16:56,440 --> 01:16:59,989
Yes! Surely. I'll take everything.
I'll take anything.

1084
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:03,993
Come on, now. Drink, gentlemen.
Please drink some champagne.

1085
01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:05,911
It's expensive and good.

1086
01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:09,156
What will I take the bank for?

1087
01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:12,073
- I'll play for 500.
- Baron, all at once?

1088
01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:13,434
Suppose you lose it?

1089
01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:16,398
It's all the same thing, Kringelein.
Come on, now, old man.

1090
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:17,909
Deal me two cards.

1091
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:20,878
One to me first. One to yourself.

1092
01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:24,037
One to me. One to yourself.

1093
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:29,349
Baron, if all that money...

1094
01:17:29,840 --> 01:17:31,751
What have you got?

1095
01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:34,594
I've got a nine!

1096
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:36,238
Isn't that a wonderful thing?

1097
01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:40,154
Kringelein, you old robber,
you're hopeless.

1098
01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:43,911
Baron! Baron, please.

1099
01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:47,080
It's no use, old man. It's sweet of you...

1100
01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:49,674
- but you have all the luck.
- It's true.

1101
01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:53,673
I have luck, for the first time in my life!
I have luck!

1102
01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:59,116
Baron, are you out?
Have you finished playing?

1103
01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:00,599
Yes, thank you.

1104
01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:04,719
I'll recover again presently,
in 10 or 20 years.

1105
01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:07,917
Look, Doctor. I've won again!

1106
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:09,353
There you are.

1107
01:18:09,440 --> 01:18:13,194
Baron, I win and drink, and drink and win!

1108
01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:17,873
Gentlemen, please don't go.

1109
01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:21,077
Be my guests. Don't go. I beg your pardon.

1110
01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:25,551
I know I oughtn't to presume,
but I�m so grateful to you.

1111
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:27,278
It's been so marvelous.

1112
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:31,956
For the first time in my life,
I�ve gambled and I�ve danced.

1113
01:18:32,120 --> 01:18:33,792
You gentlemen can laugh...

1114
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:37,668
but for the first time in my life,
I�ve tasted life!

1115
01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:41,673
- Splendid!
- Life is wonderful, but it's very dangerous.

1116
01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:44,752
If you have the courage to live it,
it's marvelous.

1117
01:18:45,440 --> 01:18:47,749
- Wonderful!
- You don't know about that.

1118
01:18:47,840 --> 01:18:51,469
You're healthy and happy.
But l, believe me...

1119
01:18:51,560 --> 01:18:55,599
if a man doesn't know death,
he doesn't know life.

1120
01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:59,958
- It's a short life, but a gay one.
- Please, gentlemen, don't go.

1121
01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,679
Come on. Drink to life...

1122
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:06,317
to the magnificent, dangerous...

1123
01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:09,233
brief, wonderful life.

1124
01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:11,959
- Kringelein!
- And the courage to live it.

1125
01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:14,952
You know, I�ve only lived since last night...

1126
01:19:15,440 --> 01:19:20,070
but that little while seems longer
than all the time that's gone before.

1127
01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:21,914
All of...

1128
01:19:23,320 --> 01:19:25,151
Take him over to his bed.

1129
01:19:25,240 --> 01:19:26,798
Turn him around.

1130
01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:31,592
How is he, Doctor?

1131
01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:35,110
- It will be over in a minute.
- Over?

1132
01:19:37,040 --> 01:19:41,431
- It's only just begun.
- Quiet, Kringelein. Don't be afraid.

1133
01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:43,715
I'm not afraid, Doc.

1134
01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:46,833
- I'm not afraid to die.
- There, there.

1135
01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:50,151
You'll be all right.
Too much iced champagne.

1136
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:54,157
- What?
- Hello, Baron.

1137
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:55,673
Hello, Kringelein.

1138
01:19:58,000 --> 01:19:59,911
You old drunkard.

1139
01:20:06,360 --> 01:20:07,918
It's late.

1140
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,757
- What is it?
- My pocketbook.

1141
01:20:28,640 --> 01:20:33,191
I've lost my pocketbook.
14,000 marks in that pocketbook.

1142
01:20:34,120 --> 01:20:36,839
- I've got to find it.
- No, stay where you are.

1143
01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:38,512
No, I�ve got to find that.

1144
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:40,955
- Kringelein!
- 14,000 marks.

1145
01:20:42,440 --> 01:20:46,399
14,000 marks were in that pocketbook.

1146
01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:49,915
I can't see anything.

1147
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:53,959
You don't know what that money means
to a man like me.

1148
01:20:54,040 --> 01:20:57,635
You've never lived like a dog in a hole...

1149
01:20:58,000 --> 01:20:59,752
and scrimped and saved.

1150
01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:04,111
You did not see his pocketbook,
did you, Baron?

1151
01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:05,349
No.

1152
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:09,073
My life hangs on that money, Baron.

1153
01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:12,273
Nobody ever gives you anything
for nothing.

1154
01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:15,750
You have to buy everything,
and pay cash for it.

1155
01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:19,630
I wanted to pay for my last days
with that money.

1156
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:24,831
I must find it!

1157
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:28,230
I haven't anything in the world
but that pocketbook!

1158
01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:33,030
Every hour costs money. I must find it!

1159
01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:40,478
Here's your pocketbook,
you silly old thing.

1160
01:21:41,440 --> 01:21:44,318
- There's your money.
- You found it!

1161
01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:47,233
That's it. You found it.

1162
01:21:47,320 --> 01:21:51,279
I'm very glad he got it back. 14,000 marks.

1163
01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:54,555
Yes. It's a lot of money, isn't it?

1164
01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:59,275
- Good night, Kringelein.
- Don't go, Baron. Don't leave me.

1165
01:21:59,600 --> 01:22:03,275
- I must, old man. It's late, I�m sorry.
- No. Please don't go!

1166
01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:06,319
I must, old man. It's late.

1167
01:22:09,360 --> 01:22:10,634
Good night.

1168
01:22:12,920 --> 01:22:14,638
Good night, Kringelein.

1169
01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:18,996
Stay a while, Baron.

1170
01:22:19,360 --> 01:22:21,715
I'm sorry. I can't, old man.

1171
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:23,958
I have no time.

1172
01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:55,359
Wait a minute.

1173
01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:05,196
- Hello, funny one.
- Hello.

1174
01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:07,471
What are you doing here at this time?

1175
01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:09,790
Looking for my room. 164.

1176
01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:12,952
- Do you live here?
- Yes, for tonight.

1177
01:23:22,400 --> 01:23:24,038
Such is life, Flaemmchen.

1178
01:23:37,000 --> 01:23:38,399
You're nice.

1179
01:23:40,480 --> 01:23:41,993
Good night...

1180
01:23:43,040 --> 01:23:44,359
funny one.

1181
01:23:45,640 --> 01:23:47,039
Good night.

1182
01:23:51,080 --> 01:23:52,274
Come on.

1183
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:08,834
- Thank you, madam. Good night.
- Good night.

1184
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:54,117
You were superb tonight. What a success!

1185
01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:55,997
Yes. It was a triumph, wasn't it?

1186
01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:58,071
Madame will return to Berlin soon?

1187
01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:01,197
Who knows, <i>monsieur</i>?

1188
01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:20,513
Do be sensible.

1189
01:25:20,600 --> 01:25:23,910
Shall I come and talk
about the music now, or not?

1190
01:25:26,160 --> 01:25:28,230
No. Not tonight.

1191
01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:31,910
Pimenov, go and find him.

1192
01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:17,268
- Flaemmchen.
- Hello.

1193
01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:19,669
I've been waiting in there for you.

1194
01:26:19,960 --> 01:26:22,474
I had to arrange about the trip.

1195
01:26:23,240 --> 01:26:26,357
- You're very sweet.
- Thank you.

1196
01:26:28,360 --> 01:26:30,112
Won't you sit down?

1197
01:26:35,480 --> 01:26:39,234
You know, you are entirely different
from what I expected.

1198
01:26:39,880 --> 01:26:42,917
- Different? How?
- I don't know.

1199
01:26:43,240 --> 01:26:46,516
I thought you were more of a coquette...

1200
01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:48,751
not so ladylike.

1201
01:26:50,480 --> 01:26:52,198
What did you expect?

1202
01:26:53,720 --> 01:26:56,837
Wouldn't you like to call me
by the first name?

1203
01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:00,830
No, I couldn't do that.

1204
01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:03,839
- Why not?
- I don't know.

1205
01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:07,394
One can't get intimate just offhand.

1206
01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:10,433
I could go to England with you
and all that, but...

1207
01:27:11,440 --> 01:27:14,750
I always say that nothing
should be left hanging over.

1208
01:27:14,840 --> 01:27:16,637
And names are like that.

1209
01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:19,709
Supposing I met you next year and I said:

1210
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:21,791
"How do you do, Mr. Preysing."

1211
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:25,395
And you said, "That's the young lady
who was my secretary in Manchester."

1212
01:27:25,480 --> 01:27:27,311
That's all quite proper.

1213
01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:29,831
But supposing I saw you and yelled:

1214
01:27:29,920 --> 01:27:32,036
"Hi, baby! Remember Manchester?"

1215
01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:37,917
And you were with your wife.
How would you like that?

1216
01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:40,992
We will leave my wife out of this,
Flaemmchen, please.

1217
01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:45,350
- Sorry.
- I didn't mean that.

1218
01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:52,752
You are very slender, aren't you?

1219
01:27:53,520 --> 01:27:57,479
- Think so?
- Are you going to be nice to me?

1220
01:27:58,120 --> 01:27:59,109
Yes.

1221
01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:03,678
- Very nice?
- That's what you expect, isn't it?

1222
01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:09,791
You like me just a little bit, don't you?

1223
01:28:11,440 --> 01:28:14,591
You're still a stranger to me,
but that doesn't matter.

1224
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:35,594
It's you, Baron.
What are you doing in this room here?

1225
01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:38,673
- This your room, Preysing?
- Yes, this is my room.

1226
01:28:38,760 --> 01:28:40,398
Sorry. I must've made a mistake.

1227
01:28:40,480 --> 01:28:43,074
We shall see whether you made
a mistake or not.

1228
01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:46,631
That door is locked, Baron.

1229
01:28:47,800 --> 01:28:49,438
Yes. I came through here.

1230
01:28:49,520 --> 01:28:51,988
Here. I want that pocketbook.

1231
01:28:52,440 --> 01:28:56,035
- What do you mean?
- I want that pocketbook. Give it to me!

1232
01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:03,112
- Certainly.
- So that's how we stand, Baron.

1233
01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:04,474
Look here, Preysing...

1234
01:29:04,560 --> 01:29:08,269
I�m completely at your mercy.
I was desperate.

1235
01:29:08,440 --> 01:29:10,158
It's a matter of life and death.

1236
01:29:10,240 --> 01:29:12,356
I had to get some money tonight,
somehow.

1237
01:29:12,440 --> 01:29:14,795
Yes, you did have to get
some money tonight...

1238
01:29:14,880 --> 01:29:17,440
but you're going to jail.
You're going to be locked up.

1239
01:29:17,520 --> 01:29:20,080
- Why, you're a thief!
- Be quiet.

1240
01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:22,316
Quiet? Yeah, quiet!

1241
01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:26,393
You danced with Flaemmchen when
I wanted to transact business with her.

1242
01:29:26,480 --> 01:29:29,916
You, the nice friend
of the nice Mr. Kringelein.

1243
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:33,754
- Do you want to wake up the entire hotel?
- I will wake up the hotel!

1244
01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:37,151
I'll show them what a baron you are.
You are a thief!

1245
01:29:37,240 --> 01:29:40,073
I'll have you locked up.
Here, you wait here.

1246
01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:43,069
Thief! You!

1247
01:29:43,480 --> 01:29:45,789
Strike me, would you?

1248
01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:48,952
Hello. Operator. Operator.

1249
01:29:49,120 --> 01:29:52,430
They're having a nice little game up there
with that telephone.

1250
01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:55,594
Oh, God.

1251
01:30:02,400 --> 01:30:03,958
Baron! Speak to me!

1252
01:30:07,240 --> 01:30:08,514
Baron.

1253
01:30:18,560 --> 01:30:21,552
He tried to rob me. He's a thief.

1254
01:30:25,360 --> 01:30:27,112
Here, Miss Flaemm.

1255
01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:38,557
Miss Flaemm, please don't leave me.
Please, Miss Flaemm.

1256
01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:46,390
- Look!
- What a grand hotel!

1257
01:30:46,480 --> 01:30:49,233
- Hurry up. They're waiting.
- She was in a hurry.

1258
01:30:50,240 --> 01:30:52,117
No wonder she was running.

1259
01:30:52,200 --> 01:30:53,428
Mr. Kringelein!

1260
01:30:56,320 --> 01:30:58,709
Wake up!

1261
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:03,871
Hear me? Wake up!

1262
01:31:03,960 --> 01:31:06,076
- The Baron.
- The Baron?

1263
01:31:06,160 --> 01:31:09,436
Go quickly. The Baron. Do you hear me?

1264
01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:12,190
- Where?
- Preysing's room.

1265
01:31:12,440 --> 01:31:13,873
Hurry!

1266
01:31:31,600 --> 01:31:34,068
Here. Take it. You thief, you.

1267
01:31:35,760 --> 01:31:37,273
I must get out of here.

1268
01:31:44,360 --> 01:31:48,478
Mr. Kringelein, he robbed me.
He struck me. He's dead.

1269
01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:56,315
Baron. Dead, just like that.

1270
01:31:56,840 --> 01:32:00,037
Look. His eyes are still open.

1271
01:32:00,680 --> 01:32:02,716
He looks so peaceful.

1272
01:32:03,720 --> 01:32:06,075
It can't be so hard to die.

1273
01:32:09,440 --> 01:32:12,273
That pocketbook he stole from me.

1274
01:32:12,360 --> 01:32:15,591
It's just like it was.
I haven't touched nothing.

1275
01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:23,833
Maybe he did try to take
your pocketbook...

1276
01:32:23,920 --> 01:32:25,911
but you don't kill a man for that.

1277
01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:28,469
You don't kill a man about a pocketbook.

1278
01:32:29,480 --> 01:32:32,438
Poor Baron, he wanted money so badly.

1279
01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:35,832
- Where is Miss Flaemm?
- I'll take care of her.

1280
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,992
That's it. She's working with that man.

1281
01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:44,158
She enticed me into her room
while he robbed me here.

1282
01:32:44,240 --> 01:32:47,038
- I'll tell that to the court.
- To the court?

1283
01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:48,030
Yes.

1284
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:52,713
Mr. Kringelein, I must talk with you
before the police come.

1285
01:32:53,360 --> 01:32:55,351
Miss Flaemm is in your room?

1286
01:32:55,440 --> 01:32:58,432
- Yes.
- She's in your room.

1287
01:32:58,520 --> 01:33:01,432
No one will know that I was with her.

1288
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:03,352
You were with her.

1289
01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:07,471
They will not interrogate you.
They will not ask you any questions.

1290
01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:11,235
You cannot give no testimony.
Neither can she say anything.

1291
01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:15,750
But what you are proposing
is falsification of the evidence.

1292
01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:18,593
My existence is hanging by a thread.

1293
01:33:18,720 --> 01:33:21,439
A scandal with that woman
would mean ruin for me.

1294
01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:25,718
- But you've just killed a man!
- That makes no difference!

1295
01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:29,918
I beg your pardon.
It makes all the difference in the world.

1296
01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:32,919
- We're going to call the police.
- No!

1297
01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:34,479
Please, Mr. Kringelein.

1298
01:33:34,560 --> 01:33:37,757
I will give you money, anything.
You can go away. Please.

1299
01:33:37,840 --> 01:33:42,391
- I have enough money.
- Mr. Kringelein, please help me.

1300
01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:45,479
- My life is in your hands.
- Your life.

1301
01:33:47,160 --> 01:33:50,277
What about my life,
when you had it in your hands?

1302
01:33:50,360 --> 01:33:52,749
But I can send you back to Friedersdorf.

1303
01:33:52,840 --> 01:33:55,673
I can give you a very good position
in Friedersdorf.

1304
01:33:55,760 --> 01:33:59,992
Many, many thanks,
Mr. Industrial Magnate Preysing...

1305
01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:04,113
- but I am never going back to Friedersdorf.
- Don't, please.

1306
01:34:04,200 --> 01:34:07,033
Worry about yourself.
Don't worry about me.

1307
01:34:07,120 --> 01:34:09,111
No, Mr. Kringelein, please don't call...

1308
01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:11,634
Hello! There's been a murder here.

1309
01:34:11,720 --> 01:34:13,915
I don't understand you. Murder?

1310
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:15,991
- They're drinking.
- What?

1311
01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:18,878
Yes. What is it? Is this a joke?

1312
01:34:19,400 --> 01:34:20,913
Hello. Hurry up.

1313
01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:22,991
Someone in 166
says there's been a murder.

1314
01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:26,117
166? Preysing?

1315
01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:29,113
I'll attend to it.

1316
01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:45,909
- What time is it, Suzette?
- It's 3:00 in the morning, Madame.

1317
01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:49,275
Tired, Suzette?

1318
01:34:49,360 --> 01:34:51,828
- Is Madame not tired?
- No, Suzette.

1319
01:34:51,920 --> 01:34:55,674
- Madame has changed her dress again.
- Yes, Suzette.

1320
01:35:03,320 --> 01:35:05,276
The music has stopped.

1321
01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:07,797
How quiet it is tonight.

1322
01:35:09,440 --> 01:35:12,193
It was never so quiet in the Grand Hotel.

1323
01:35:21,160 --> 01:35:24,869
Those flowers make me think of funerals.

1324
01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:28,191
- Don't they you, Suzette?
- It's just nerves, Madame, nerves.

1325
01:35:29,680 --> 01:35:32,399
Suzette, we're going to
take a holiday soon.

1326
01:35:32,480 --> 01:35:33,959
Six weeks in Tremezzo.

1327
01:35:34,040 --> 01:35:36,076
I'm going to live like a real woman...

1328
01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:39,152
perfectly simple, perfectly quiet,
perfectly happy.

1329
01:35:39,240 --> 01:35:41,993
- Yes, Madame.
- We'll have a guest.

1330
01:35:42,080 --> 01:35:43,229
Certainly, Madame.

1331
01:35:43,320 --> 01:35:46,312
But Madame must sleep now.
The train will soon go.

1332
01:35:48,240 --> 01:35:49,639
I suppose so.

1333
01:36:00,040 --> 01:36:02,634
Call Baron von Geigern's room, please.

1334
01:36:18,400 --> 01:36:20,709
Keep ringing. He must be asleep.

1335
01:36:25,040 --> 01:36:27,679
Come and fetch me, <i>ch�ri</i>...

1336
01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:29,918
I�m longing for you.

1337
01:36:32,880 --> 01:36:34,871
I haven't been asleep.

1338
01:36:35,360 --> 01:36:39,194
I kept thinking that you might come to me.

1339
01:36:45,280 --> 01:36:48,716
But he must answer. Ring!

1340
01:36:53,200 --> 01:36:56,112
Why don't you answer the phone, please?

1341
01:36:58,360 --> 01:36:59,554
Yes.

1342
01:37:01,120 --> 01:37:02,872
Yes. Ring.

1343
01:37:06,560 --> 01:37:08,949
Where are you?

1344
01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:22,875
Thirty-four!

1345
01:37:23,680 --> 01:37:24,874
Thirty-six.

1346
01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:27,594
Thirty-eight.

1347
01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:30,433
Forty.

1348
01:37:37,520 --> 01:37:40,637
- Forty-two.
- Let's go to work, boys.

1349
01:37:40,960 --> 01:37:42,313
Forty-four.

1350
01:37:45,040 --> 01:37:46,871
Forty-four, forty-six pounds.

1351
01:37:49,120 --> 01:37:50,235
Forty-eight.

1352
01:37:54,000 --> 01:37:57,549
- Are these things necessary?
- I'm afraid so, Mr. Preysing.

1353
01:37:57,880 --> 01:37:59,233
All right.

1354
01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:09,274
We've taken care of all that, Mr. Preysing.

1355
01:38:26,840 --> 01:38:28,751
The night porter's gone. You're late.

1356
01:38:28,840 --> 01:38:31,274
I was at the clinic the whole night.

1357
01:38:31,360 --> 01:38:34,033
- My wife, poor girl.
- The child hasn't come yet?

1358
01:38:34,120 --> 01:38:37,396
No. But I mustn't let it interfere
with my duty.

1359
01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:39,159
- You won't forget that?
- No, sir.

1360
01:38:39,240 --> 01:38:40,878
- I'm going now.
- Yes, Doctor.

1361
01:38:40,960 --> 01:38:43,554
- What's this?
- A killing in 166.

1362
01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:44,629
Killing? Who?

1363
01:38:44,720 --> 01:38:47,439
The big manufacturer Preysing
killed Baron von Geigern.

1364
01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:49,078
Good heavens! What for?

1365
01:38:49,160 --> 01:38:52,197
- I don't know.
- That's terrible!

1366
01:38:53,080 --> 01:38:55,594
- He was a nice fellow.
- They say he was a thief.

1367
01:38:55,680 --> 01:38:58,069
I don't believe it. He was a real gentleman.

1368
01:38:58,520 --> 01:39:00,112
I know people.

1369
01:39:00,680 --> 01:39:03,353
I'm so tired
I can't hardly see out of my eyes.

1370
01:39:03,440 --> 01:39:06,796
No sleep for two nights, here all day,
and now this killing at the hotel.

1371
01:39:06,880 --> 01:39:08,279
Halt! Front!

1372
01:39:09,720 --> 01:39:11,676
- Good morning.
- Good morning.

1373
01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:14,320
Show your hands. Hands. Over.

1374
01:39:15,280 --> 01:39:17,191
- Change those gloves.
- Yes, sir.

1375
01:39:18,200 --> 01:39:20,270
- Down.
- Dismissed.

1376
01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:22,272
Too bad about the Baron.

1377
01:39:22,360 --> 01:39:24,430
You always felt better
when he came along.

1378
01:39:24,520 --> 01:39:28,672
- Always friendly, such an agreeable fellow.
- I'll tell you a funny thing about...

1379
01:39:28,760 --> 01:39:30,796
Be quiet. Good morning, madam.

1380
01:39:31,480 --> 01:39:32,993
Where are you taking that dog?

1381
01:39:33,080 --> 01:39:35,116
- Baron von Geigern.
- Give it to me.

1382
01:39:37,000 --> 01:39:39,753
Better take charge of this dog.
It belonged to the Baron.

1383
01:39:39,840 --> 01:39:41,068
Yes, sir.

1384
01:40:00,600 --> 01:40:03,637
- They have taken him away?
- Yes. Wasn't it terrible?

1385
01:40:03,720 --> 01:40:07,315
Madame must not know. You understand?
Madame must not know!

1386
01:40:07,400 --> 01:40:11,439
All right, I can tell it to the maids,
but I can't answer for downstairs.

1387
01:40:28,440 --> 01:40:31,830
- Are you all right, Miss Flaemmchen?
- Yes.

1388
01:40:34,280 --> 01:40:36,430
I was just thinking about the Baron.

1389
01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:44,436
Lying there, with his eyes so open.

1390
01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:49,790
You loved the Baron, didn't you?

1391
01:40:54,760 --> 01:40:56,273
So did l.

1392
01:40:57,160 --> 01:41:00,994
He was friendly to me as no man ever was.

1393
01:41:02,120 --> 01:41:03,678
What if he was a burglar?

1394
01:41:03,760 --> 01:41:07,070
- They don't kill a man for that.
- He was desperate.

1395
01:41:07,280 --> 01:41:08,235
He was?

1396
01:41:09,080 --> 01:41:12,277
He tried to raise money all day.

1397
01:41:12,360 --> 01:41:15,193
And he laughed, poor devil.

1398
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:19,037
And a man like Preysing has to kill him.

1399
01:41:20,040 --> 01:41:22,429
You know, I didn't like Preysing right off.

1400
01:41:23,560 --> 01:41:25,949
Why did you have anything
to do with him?

1401
01:41:28,360 --> 01:41:30,635
- Money.
- Money.

1402
01:41:31,640 --> 01:41:34,632
- You don't understand that, do you?
- Yes, I do.

1403
01:41:34,840 --> 01:41:36,956
- Do you really?
- Yes, I do.

1404
01:41:39,520 --> 01:41:43,399
I could take care of you,
Miss Flaemmchen, if you'd let me.

1405
01:41:43,480 --> 01:41:45,232
I have enough money.

1406
01:41:45,320 --> 01:41:48,869
There's 10,200 marks in this pocketbook...

1407
01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:52,873
and there's 3,400 that I won last night.

1408
01:41:53,560 --> 01:41:57,872
That would last a long time.
I could win some more. We could travel.

1409
01:41:57,960 --> 01:41:59,951
- Travel?
- Yes, to Paris.

1410
01:42:00,040 --> 01:42:03,669
- I've always wanted to go to Paris.
- Anywhere you like. Here.

1411
01:42:03,760 --> 01:42:08,231
I'll give you this money
I won last night. 3,400...

1412
01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:11,596
- and then later you can have some more.
- Later?

1413
01:42:11,680 --> 01:42:14,240
Yes, when l...

1414
01:42:14,560 --> 01:42:16,676
I�m ill, Flaemmchen.

1415
01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:19,320
I won't live long. Will you stay with me?

1416
01:42:19,400 --> 01:42:23,598
That's nonsense!
We'll find a great doctor. He'll cure you.

1417
01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:26,240
- They can cure anything these days.
- You think so?

1418
01:42:26,320 --> 01:42:29,039
Of course. You'll see. Here.

1419
01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:33,959
Do you think you'd have
as good a time with me...

1420
01:42:34,040 --> 01:42:35,473
as you did with Preysing?

1421
01:42:35,560 --> 01:42:37,869
- Why, of course.
- Really?

1422
01:42:39,480 --> 01:42:42,517
- Yes.
- You like me better than you did him?

1423
01:42:46,040 --> 01:42:50,318
You're a good man, Mr. Kringelein.
A very good man.

1424
01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:58,790
You know, I never thought
anything so beautiful could come to me.

1425
01:43:07,960 --> 01:43:11,999
We'll catch the first train to Paris.
Order two tickets now. Come on.

1426
01:43:13,960 --> 01:43:15,439
I can't.

1427
01:43:16,280 --> 01:43:17,679
Hello, porter?

1428
01:43:18,120 --> 01:43:19,269
Yes, please.

1429
01:43:21,640 --> 01:43:23,790
I'd like two tickets to Paris.

1430
01:43:24,440 --> 01:43:25,395
Yes.

1431
01:43:25,600 --> 01:43:27,397
What time does the next train leave?

1432
01:43:27,800 --> 01:43:28,994
Pimenov.

1433
01:43:30,760 --> 01:43:33,433
- He'll be on the train.
- But how do you know?

1434
01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:38,349
Baron von Geigern has left?
When? How long ago?

1435
01:43:38,440 --> 01:43:40,795
The Baron left about half an hour ago.

1436
01:43:40,880 --> 01:43:43,474
Gru, come, come. We'll lose the train.

1437
01:43:47,800 --> 01:43:49,552
Come along.

1438
01:43:58,240 --> 01:43:59,912
Here you are, sir.

1439
01:44:08,760 --> 01:44:10,398
I'm sorry.

1440
01:44:11,160 --> 01:44:13,037
Mme. Grusinskaya's car.

1441
01:44:14,600 --> 01:44:16,716
Come along, the train will be going.

1442
01:44:21,480 --> 01:44:23,948
- What is it, Gru?
- Please come, madam, please.

1443
01:44:24,040 --> 01:44:26,600
- I'll ask myself.
- What is the use of asking?

1444
01:44:26,680 --> 01:44:30,275
- He'll be on the train. He'll be there.
- Have you seen Baron von Geigern?

1445
01:44:30,360 --> 01:44:32,191
The Baron is not here, madam.

1446
01:44:32,600 --> 01:44:33,874
- Has he gone?
- Yes, madam.

1447
01:44:33,960 --> 01:44:37,635
- We haven't any time to waste.
- He'll be on the train.

1448
01:44:37,720 --> 01:44:40,188
We have a rehearsal in Vienna tomorrow.

1449
01:44:46,880 --> 01:44:50,509
The sun. It'll be sunny in Tremezzo.

1450
01:44:51,720 --> 01:44:54,678
We'll have a guest, Suzette. Yes?

1451
01:45:09,560 --> 01:45:11,471
Grand Hotel!

1452
01:45:12,600 --> 01:45:14,955
The Grand Hotel, sweetheart.

1453
01:45:17,720 --> 01:45:19,597
This way, precious.

1454
01:45:23,120 --> 01:45:25,918
Take the car to the garage.
Take the bags in, please.

1455
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:26,830
Come, darling.

1456
01:45:29,200 --> 01:45:30,599
Good morning.

1457
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:37,350
- Will you kindly register?
- Certainly.

1458
01:45:37,440 --> 01:45:39,749
- Mr. And Mrs. Hoffman.
- Head porter's desk.

1459
01:45:39,840 --> 01:45:42,070
Mr. Senf? Just a moment. Hospital.

1460
01:45:45,600 --> 01:45:47,909
Hello. Yes, head porter.

1461
01:45:48,560 --> 01:45:50,357
Yes.

1462
01:45:51,560 --> 01:45:53,630
What?

1463
01:45:55,440 --> 01:45:57,749
- Yes.
- What's the matter?

1464
01:45:59,440 --> 01:46:02,000
The child has come. It's a boy.

1465
01:46:02,160 --> 01:46:05,197
- And your wife?
- My wife is well.

1466
01:46:05,400 --> 01:46:09,552
Hello. Hospital?
I'll be with you on lunch hour.

1467
01:46:09,640 --> 01:46:11,471
These rooms are not taken.

1468
01:46:11,560 --> 01:46:14,791
176, 170, 168, 166.

1469
01:46:14,880 --> 01:46:16,871
- Is Your Excellency leaving?
- A cab, please.

1470
01:46:16,960 --> 01:46:19,599
- A cab for His Excellency.
- My bill, and the lady's, too.

1471
01:46:19,680 --> 01:46:21,511
- Have you got your tickets?
- My tickets.

1472
01:46:21,600 --> 01:46:24,717
- Tickets for Mr. Kringelein.
- Thank you.

1473
01:46:24,800 --> 01:46:26,119
Your forwarding address?

1474
01:46:26,200 --> 01:46:28,509
The Grand Hotel, in Paris.

1475
01:46:28,760 --> 01:46:30,591
How do you know there will be one?

1476
01:46:30,680 --> 01:46:33,240
There's a Grand Hotel
everywhere in the world.

1477
01:46:33,320 --> 01:46:36,153
- Goodbye, Mr. Kringelein.
- Goodbye, Doctor.

1478
01:46:36,240 --> 01:46:38,151
Pain's gone already?

1479
01:46:38,240 --> 01:46:40,470
Pain. I have none, Doctor.

1480
01:46:41,680 --> 01:46:43,033
Goodbye.

1481
01:46:44,080 --> 01:46:45,115
My luggage.

1482
01:46:45,200 --> 01:46:47,430
- Telegram.
- I beg your pardon.

1483
01:46:47,520 --> 01:46:51,115
Where's the money?
Hurry. We'll miss that train.

1484
01:46:51,760 --> 01:46:54,797
Got your bags now?
Come along. Here you are.

1485
01:46:55,440 --> 01:46:57,670
- Come on.
- Goodbye, Your Excellency.

1486
01:46:57,760 --> 01:47:00,228
- Goodbye!
- Your hat, sir.

1487
01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:02,479
Goodbye. I'm coming.

1488
01:47:06,320 --> 01:47:08,117
Please be careful of that.

1489
01:47:12,640 --> 01:47:14,710
Friedrichstrasse Station.

1490
01:47:18,680 --> 01:47:21,877
Grand Hotel. Always the same.

1491
01:47:22,920 --> 01:47:26,754
People come, people go.
Nothing ever happens.
