Colonel Redl Page #12

---

when all other possibilities

are just as miserable?

1078

01:
38:04,500 -- 01:38:07,000

Nothing matters, Alfred,

only life itself.

1079

01:
38:08,100 -- 01:38:11,700

To breathe this wonderful

morning air.

1080

01:
38:15,600 -- 01:38:19,900

It s no sin to be involved.

It s a sin to remain involved.

1081

01:
38:19,900 -- 01:38:21,300

Montaigne.

1082

01:
38:23,600 -- 01:38:26,400

l learned it

in my French Class.

1083

01:
38:26,500 -- 01:38:27,800

Why do you keep this?

1084

01:
38:27,800 -- 01:38:31,000

- l wanna know what he thinks.

- About you?

1085

01:
38:33,900 -- 01:38:37,600

l can t prevent

what s brewing up.

1086

01:
38:37,600 -- 01:38:41,500

What l wanted to defend

doesn t exist.

1087

01:
38:48,600 -- 01:38:51,000

l dreamt my father

sat on my shoulders...

1088

01:
38:51,000 -- 01:38:52,900

pressing me into the earth.

1089

01:
38:56,100 -- 01:38:59,500

You no more about me

than anyone else.

1090

01:
38:59,500 -- 01:39:01,500

lf you ever misuse that...

1091

01:
39:03,100 -- 01:39:05,400

I ll shoot you.

1092

01:
39:45,400 -- 01:39:48,000

Colonel,

it s a masked ball.

1093

01:
39:48,000 -- 01:39:49,400

Even for me?

1094

01:
39:49,400 -- 01:39:51,300

Yes, until midnight,

for everyone.

1095

01:
40:07,500 -- 01:40:12,300

Colonel Redl, whom we all

tear. And your wife?

1096

01:
40:12,300 -- 01:40:13,900

Unfortunately,

in a sanatorium.

1097

01:
40:13,900 -- 01:40:17,200

- May we ask why?

- A shadow on the lung.

1098

01:
40:17,200 -- 01:40:19,600

l wish her

a speedy recovery.

1099

01:
40:20,600 -- 01:40:22,200

Good evening.

1100

01:
40:22,200 -- 01:40:24,600

lf there were an explosion

in this room now...

1101

01:
40:24,600 -- 01:40:27,200

it d be the solution

for Europe.

1102

01:
40:27,200 -- 01:40:29,900

And would we be

inside or outside?

1103

01:
40:29,900 -- 01:40:35,000

Trieste will fall to the

Italians, so don t buy it.

1104

01:
40:42,000 -- 01:40:46,000

Every battalion s safe

has an envelope...

1105

01:
40:46,000 -- 01:40:49,600

with the secret

mobilization order.

1106

01:
40:50,600 -- 01:40:52,000

Colonel Redl?

1107

01:
40:59,400 -- 01:41:01,000

What do you say to that?

1108

01:
41:01,000 -- 01:41:03,600

l heard that Austria-Germany,

not Hungary...

1109

01:
41:03,600 -- 01:41:07,800

will save the Habsburgs.

1110

01:
41:09,400 -- 01:41:11,900

Katalin, dear...

excuse me.

1111

01:
41:11,900 -- 01:41:15,900

Would you introduce that

Esterhazy to my daughter?

1112

01:
41:18,100 -- 01:41:19,800

We ll meet later.

1113

01:
41:20,900 -- 01:41:23,600

Yes, but the Germans are

in Silesia.

1114

01:
41:23,600 -- 01:41:26,600

The Ukrainians will join

the Russians.

1115

01:
41:26,600 -- 01:41:29,000

They prefer the Tsar.

1116

01:
41:29,000 -- 01:41:32,600

l couldn t think of any

other reaction from them.

1117

01:
41:36,600 -- 01:41:37,700

Pardon me.

1118

01:
41:41,800 -- 01:41:45,300

Long live to the Habsburgs,

even it might not be long.

1119

01:
41:45,400 -- 01:41:47,500

And to the army of course.

1120

01:
41:53,200 -- 01:41:57,000

It is midnight.

All masks are falling!

1121

01:
43:02,900 -- 01:43:05,100

Alfred, may introduce

our new guest.

1122

01:
43:05,100 -- 01:43:08,100

- Tenente Velocchio.

- Alfredo Velocchio.

1123

01:
43:09,600 -- 01:43:10,900

Redl.

1124

01:
46:09,800 -- 01:46:12,200

The most important thing

for me is...

1125

01:
46:12,200 -- 01:46:14,100

that you love me...

1126

01:
46:15,400 -- 01:46:18,300

protect me and trust me.

1127

01:
46:20,200 -- 01:46:25,500

All my life I ve been weak.

l need your help.

1128

01:
46:26,800 -- 01:46:28,400

Tell me what to do.

1129

01:
46:29,600 -- 01:46:33,400

Tell me how to be.

Cynical, maybe?

1130

01:
46:33,400 -- 01:46:36,900

Why cynical?

1131

01:
46:36,900 -- 01:46:40,500

You don t believe in the

whole thing, but you go on.

1132

01:
46:41,800 -- 01:46:46,000

You said war is coming,

but you ll lose it anyway.

1133

01:
46:46,000 -- 01:46:48,100

Am l supposed

to seize power?

1134

01:
46:49,100 -- 01:46:51,600

Enough officers

share my views.

1135

01:
46:52,600 -- 01:46:55,900

Should we support

the Emperor...

1136

01:
46:55,900 -- 01:46:58,500

who is old

and may be dying?

1137

01:
47:00,900 -- 01:47:03,700

It s the war we should stop.

1138

01:
47:05,900 -- 01:47:07,400

Or...

1139

01:
47:09,900 -- 01:47:13,700

a bullet from this pistol

might be the solution.

1140

01:
47:14,700 -- 01:47:16,800

No, there is a better way.

1141

01:
47:16,800 -- 01:47:20,000

- Who sent you?

- Excuse me?

1142

01:
47:20,000 -- 01:47:21,300

Who sent you?

1143

01:
47:24,600 -- 01:47:28,300

The Italians? Russians?

French? English?

1144

01:
47:28,300 -- 01:47:29,700

Who?

1145

01:
47:31,000 -- 01:47:32,400

l don t know who.

1146

01:
47:34,000 -- 01:47:35,900

I m getting 12,000 crowns

for it.

1147

01:
47:35,900 -- 01:47:37,500

For what?

1148

01:
47:39,400 -- 01:47:41,800

I m supposed to get

military secrets from you.

1149

01:
47:42,800 -- 01:47:46,600

They re most interested in

the plans to attack Russia.

1150

01:
47:54,400 -- 01:47:56,400

Over.

1151

01:
48:04,000 -- 01:48:08,300

The code letter for war

with Russia is R .

1152

01:
48:09,400 -- 01:48:11,800

Yes. R.

1153

01:
48:11,800 -- 01:48:17,400

On the northern front

there are 788 battalions.

1154

01:
48:17,400 -- 01:48:20,200

377 cavalry squadrons.

1155

01:
48:20,200 -- 01:48:25,500

379 batteries

with 2,222 guns.

1156

01:
48:25,600 -- 01:48:27,400

69 technical companies.

1157

01:
48:28,400 -- 01:48:33,400

6 companies of bicyclists,

1,234 machine guns.

1158

01:
48:34,500 -- 01:48:36,200

Understood?

1159

01:
48:39,000 -- 01:48:41,900

In the fortresses Lemberg,

Cracow, Przemysl...

1160

01:
48:41,900 -- 01:48:43,600

22 battalions.

1161

01:
48:44,600 -- 01:48:46,800

7 cavalry regiments.

1162

01:
48:46,800 -- 01:48:48,400

1 battery with 6 guns.

1163

01:
48:49,200 -- 01:48:53,900

83 artillery regiments.

1164

01:
48:58,200 -- 01:49:00,500

And now get lost.

1165

01:
49:32,900 -- 01:49:36,100

From where did you know

Alfredo Velocchio?

1166

01:
49:36,100 -- 01:49:40,300

l didn t. l met him

that night in October.

1167

01:
49:40,300 -- 01:49:41,900

Who introduced him to you?

1168

01:
49:41,900 -- 01:49:44,300

- l forgot.

- Think.

1169

01:
49:44,300 -- 01:49:49,700

Who was it? Who told you

to introduce him to me?

1170

01:
49:49,700 -- 01:49:52,700

- Excuse me?

- Who commissioned you?

1171

01:
49:52,700 -- 01:49:56,400

No one. He asked me

to introduce him.

1172

01:
49:56,400 -- 01:49:58,700

- What did he say?

- Nothing.

1173

01:
49:58,700 -- 01:50:01,200

- You re lying.

- I m not.

1174

01:
50:01,200 -- 01:50:03,000

You re lying!

1175

01:
50:04,700 -- 01:50:09,000

l swear,

he mentioned Christoph.

1176

01:
50:25,400 -- 01:50:27,900

Why don t they arrest me?

1177

01:
50:27,900 -- 01:50:30,000

What are they waiting for?

1178

01:
50:37,500 -- 01:50:39,500

They need a Ukrainian.
