gypsies

We rescued them at sea tonight

There are also students,

maybe unjustly chased

by the police

Captain, no one can force us to

travel with these people

who come God knows from where

He's right

Their rafts were sinking due

to the great weight

To rescue these women, children,

these families in despair,

was a duty I could not forego

Yesterday's Pommard was not one

of the best

I'd like to suggest a white wine

for my wife and friends

A Chablis, let's say.

Let's give it a try

But I'll still have a Rayon

de Soleil champagne

You! Scram, scram!

- Look there!

- You're not worthy of the spaghetti

Sit down, Monica

Turn around and look.

What does that pretty

one want?

She's beautiful! Krassivaya.

She has savage eyes!

I'm frankly embarrassed, eating

while they look at us like that!

Divine providence will

look after them!

- Right! If you're thinking...

- Finally they've decided...

Why?

I'll drink to you! No!

What're you doing?

I want to see my fiancee

Violet, please

Andrew, what do you think

she'll do?

I think she wants to bring food

to the horrible people on deck!

Violet, this philanthropic

gesture of yours

is admirable, but

a bit too much

Sir, I'll try, Sir

Please, Andrew, make her come

back to the table!

- Sir Reginald wishes...

- I don't need any help

Waiters, please follow me with

the trolley

Mrs. Dongby, wait Mrs. Dongby.

A table is being set outside

Good, so they'll have something

more today. Come on

- I insist!

- Please open the door!

- Excuse me.

- Thank you

- My lady, please

- Can I bring them my soup, Mommy?

- Do you think I should do it too?

- No, lldebranda, not at all

- Mommy, please, let me take it!

- Not another word!

Give me the tray, madame,

I'll carry it

Now I've got to go with you.

Please

Stay back. Sailor, tell them

to stay back.

Let's come here, let's see if

you're a singer too

Say "Aaah". Come on, open

your mouth!

Stay back! Stay back!

- Excuse me?

- I'll do it!

Go back to the salon, madame!

I'll take over here

How much do you want?

Cut the cake and distribute it

to the children, to all of them!

Yes

Why are you laughing?

What is it?

What?

What did you see?

Why're you laughing?

It's inadmissible for a ship to

be boarded by Serb anarchists

without the captain doing

anything to prevent it!

Please. The captain must rescue

shipwrecks

following a basic principle

in the Naval Code:

- The duty of assistance.

- You probably know, Captain

that among those you kindly

define as refugees

there are professional

assassins

That's right!

This is very serious. The Grand

Duke's life is in jeopardy

We'll protest before

the Italian government!

We'll protest before your

government!

I'll be responsible for

His Highness' safety

aboard this ship around the clock

As soon as they came on board,

I've ordered my officers

to control them,

to isolate any potentially

dangerous persons

Control is not enough

if those so-called refugees

can move freely

throughout the ship, on deck,

in the bar, in the halls,

in the salon

Cuoco! You speak their language,

they cannot stay here

They have to go!

Captain's orders

Leave, all of you, scram

Hello! I'd like a box

of cookies. Good ones.

Right! These are chocolate

- Are they good?

- Yes, thank you

How much? How much?

Here you are!

Don't make us evict you

by force!

You must go back on deck, come

on! Sailors, take them on deck

Whoever knows the language, tell

them we're getting them a place

You may not cross these ropes

without asking permission from

the sailor on duty. Translate!

Stay behind the ropes,

do you understand?

Did they understand? They

may not leave this place

Olga, little one, come here,

come here, beautiful!

Do you like cookies?

Take them, darling.

They are all yours.

Taste them, put them

in your mouth

What a lovely dress

you're wearing!

Is this your daughter?

She's lovely, Klassivaia!

I was giving her cookies.

Take them, little Olga

This is further proof that one

cannot trust the Italians

Your Highness, I was right

predicting trouble in this voyage

- Aren't you going to make a move?

- Let me think, if I make a move...

Your Highness

Excuse me, for safety reasons

I must ask Your Highness

not to leave this cabin till

this situation on deck

is under control

Isn't that a bit too much?

But thank you anyhow

Excuse me

I don't feel in danger.

Ah, right

Checkmate!

I can't play with you!

You always win

You move the pieces saying you

want to "look" at them

What is it?

- I'm afraid!

- What of?

- I don't know, it's too complex.

- It is not

Listen, do you remember?

In the 5th century the Serbs

descended on the Balkans

and then invaded Epirus

and Thessaly

Can you imagine if they're

confined to the stern area?

I see the thermometer, I've got

a fever of 103! What shall I do?

Spoil the show? The audience

had come to see me

- Change the topic.

- No, I sang and gave 7 encores!

You build a mystic gulf where

there are hardly 50 players...

The strength of character and

the grace of warm feminity

make English women...

Let's not waste time beating around

the bush, O.K.?

She's so expressive, she almost

seems to understand what's said

My brother is asleep,

fast asleep

Your Highness, can't we change

our decision?

The voyage is getting to its

end

and Count von Stauffen is

getting more & more suspicious

No, everything'll turn out all right

without us doing a thing

How can you be sure,

Your Highness?

I've had this dream: I was

in a garden with my brother

and an eagle swept down

from Heaven

It flies towards us, catches

my brother and flies away

But he, poor thing, is heavy,

so heavy

So the eagle lets him fall

and he is swallowed up

by a hole in the ground

You can always set my mind

at ease

make me believe every word

you say

Bravo! Hasn't she lovely color

in her voice?

Who was singing?

Like acrobats and monkeys!

- Even the old people dance!

- They don't know anything

This is a very ancient dance,

a pagan one! I've studied it!

They dance it mixed up

with Hungarian Czardas

This is a ritual dance, a rite,

and it goes like this

Bravo!

You're good!

Go down, I want to see

you dance!

Attention! I'd like to present

two great dance masters!

They'll show you how you ought

to dance

This dance is meant to bring

rain on the country

The women lift their arms

so as to pick up the water

The men beat the soil

with their feet

because the seeds must know

that the dance has started

and they open their mouths and

drink the rain from heaven

Like this, like this

I don't have anything

to teach them,

but I think I can learn

something from that one!

Excuse me, excuse me!

Music always seems to be about

to tell you a secret, but then...

Eugenio, Eugenio,

what are you doing?

Don't make me afraid!

Answer me! Eugenio

Is it over?

The object of this dance

is to befriend the elemental spirits

who control the growth
