Blood Diamond Page #7
Shoot me if you want, but I'm going.
Why should it matter,
I'm dead already.
We wait until dark, huh?
Are you satisfied?
All right, come on.
--is fighting for Sierra Leone
RUF is fighting for Sierra Leone
Go tell my parents
They may see me no more
In the battlefield
We're fighting forever
Go tell my parents
They may see me no more
In the battlefield...
You are how old?
Me? I'm 31.
And you have no wife?
- No.
- No children?
No.
And no home?
No.
But you have money, yes?
Yeah, some.
But not enough?
No.
If you get this diamond,
you will have enough money, yes?
Yes.
Then you will get
a wife and children?
Probably not, no.
What?
What?
I am confused.
Yeah?
That makes two of us, my bru.
Oh, Christ.
I've gotta quit smoking, huh?
Why don't you?
I'll tell you what, Solomon.
You find me this diamond,
and I'll quit right then and there, huh?
- You were born in Zimbabwe?
- Oh, yeah.
- Is it beautiful there?
- Sure you're not a reporter?
Because you ask a hell of a lot
of questions, my man.
My grandfather told
many stories of war.
How the Mende fought the Temne.
when somebody had stolen a woman.
I understand white people
want our diamonds, yes?
But how can my own people
do this to each other?
I know good people...
...who say there is something
wrong with us...
...inside our black skin.
That we were better off
when the white man ruled.
But my son is good.
And when he grows up...
...and peace comes...
...this place will be a paradise.
We'll get your son back, huh?
Where is it exactly?
Through the camp, by the river.
Christ.
Okay.
I'm gonna make contact
with the colonel.
He'll send in an air strike.
- What is that?
- A chopper, huh? An attack helicopter.
- We use it as a diversion.
- What if my son is there?
- He isn't.
- How do you know?
I said we do it my way now, all right?
Don't f*** with me.
Cordell, it's Danny.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Shut up and listen, all right?
You tell the colonel I've found the stone.
No, I haven't got it in my hands,
but I'm OP'ing its location.
It's a major rebel camp, my man.
You tell him to send in the dakadak.
Because I stole a GPS, that's how.
If you shut up and listen,
I could give the coordinates.
Zero-nine-zero-five-four-two-four, north.
Three-two-seven-two-nine
three-zero-five-zero, east.
I'll call back at midnight to confirm.
You can look all night,
my friend, right?
I promise you he is not there.
They're coming in the morning, all right?
No movement, my friend. You stay still.
When it gets dark,
then we move in closer.
Solomon. Sh*t.
I can do it.
- Help me.
- Help him.
Thank you, Papa.
Hey, you smell.
That's fine.
- Ready? I'm winning.
- Okay, let's go.
Play, man.
- Play. Play the card.
- Play.
Dia.
Leave me alone.
- Dia. I'm your papa. Come with me.
- Hey.
- Dia.
- Get away from me.
- Dia. Dia!
- I do not know you. Traitor!
- Enemy! Enemy!
- What the hell are you doing?
- What are you doing?
- I don't know you!
- What's wrong?
- I hate you!
- Dia, come with me!
- I hate you!
Get away from me!
- Get him!
- Don't shoot!
- Don't shoot! Don't--! Don't shoot!
- I hate you!
- Fisherman! Traitor!
- Don't shoot!
Get away from me!
I knew you would come back.
I have dug and dug and dug,
but I've found nothing.
Nothing.
Dig, dig, dig!
You will find it for me.
You will dig up
what you have come back for.
No.
Why should the diamond
go to the foreign devils?
We will use it
to make the country strong.
RUF is fighting for the people!
RUF is fighting for Sierra Leone!
Pick it up.
Why? You are going to kill me anyway.
I do not need to kill you,
Solomon Vandy.
If you do not bring me the diamond...
...I will find the rest of your family.
Just as I have found your son.
I will rape your wife
in front of your eyes...
...slit her throat...
...and I will keep your daughters
for myself.
You think I am a devil...
...but only because I have lived in hell.
I want to get out.
You will help me.
I don't remember.
Find it or your family will die!
Now pick it up!
- Go!
- Bastards!
Shoot it!
Dia!
Come, boy. Come. This way. This way.
Dia!
Colonel, we think Archer's there.
I don't give a damn who's down there.
Kill them all.
Dia!
I'm coming!
- Dia!
- Bastard!
No!
Dia!
- We found his digger, sir.
- Keep him close.
- Danny boy.
- Colonel.
- Yeah, yeah. Always happy to help, huh?
So where is it? The stone?
We split, huh? Fifty-fifty, all right?
You're not in a position
to be dictating terms.
Then you will never find it, sir.
That's correct.
- But he will.
- Come. Up.
Introduce me to your digger.
Solomon Vandy.
This is Colonel Coetzee.
He wants the diamond.
- No more than you.
- F***.
You gonna show us where it's hidden?
Does he speak English?
He will only tell me, sir.
I promise you that.
- Let me talk to him, huh?
- Go on.
All right, my friend.
End of the line here, huh?
- You just tell him where it is, all right?
- I do not trust him.
I don't trust him either,
but we haven't got much of a choice here.
I promise you
he will shoot us both in the head.
Right, tell him, huh?
Tell him where it is, huh?
- Go on. Come on.
- I'm not feeling the love, Danny.
All right.
No more messing about, all right?
I said tell him where it is!
Tell him where it is! Now!
Tell him!
- No.
- F***ing--
to do this, okay?
Yeah, yeah.
- If he tells us, do we have a deal, sir?
- Seventy-thirty.
Sixty-forty. I've already lined up a buyer.
Agreed.
Come here.
This is his son. Vandy will do
whatever you want for his sake, all right?
Danny, you're a pisser, man. Well done.
Boys, we move out.
What do you say, Mr. Vandy?
- You ready to take a walk?
- Come on.
Come on.
So who's the buyer?
I'm guessing London.
Well, they no longer accept
conflict diamonds, huh?
Wouldn't hurt to interest
some other parties.
- What, one war's not enough for you, huh?
I missed you, Danny.
See? It is here.
He has tried to find it.
All right, Mr. Vandy.
Time for you to start digging.
Hey, boet, have you got a smoke?
Smoking will kill you.
Sorry.
It's all right.
Time I quit smoking anyway,
huh, Solomon?
- It's gone.
- What?
Someone has taken it.
It isn't here.
Well, then there's no reason
for any of you to stay alive. Is there?
Wait, wait, wait.
I know, I know. I know where it is.
- I know where it is.
- It better be there.
Yes.
Oh, here, here.
It is here.
- Yeah? Yeah, there it is.
- Yes.
F***!
TIA, huh, Danny?
TIA.
Keep digging, huh?
They'll be here any second. Come on.
Keep digging.
- It had better be there, huh?
- Yes, yes.
Have you got it?
- Have you got it, huh?
- Yes, got it. Oh, yes.
Oh, yes.
Solomon.
Dia, what are you doing?
Dia.
What are you doing?
You are a good boy
