589

00:
56:17,200 -- 00:56:21,100

You can have them.

l hate them!

590

00:
56:30,200 -- 00:56:34,500

Galicia and Cracow would

join Poland so fast...

591

00:
56:34,500 -- 00:56:36,900

Vienna would be left

gasping.

592

00:
56:36,900 -- 00:56:38,900

And our Monarchy?

593

00:
56:38,900 -- 00:56:41,300

It would vanish

from the map of Europe.

594

00:
56:41,300 -- 00:56:43,300

This Empire can only

be saved by war.

595

00:
56:43,300 -- 00:56:46,700

But after so many

lost battles...

596

00:
56:46,700 -- 00:56:48,300

the senile Emperor

has to go first.

597

00:
56:48,300 -- 00:56:51,100

Are you crazy?

598

00:
56:53,600 -- 00:56:56,900

Trying to play switchman,

are you?

599

00:
57:47,100 -- 00:57:52,700

I m forced to put you on

increased duty for one week.

600

00:
57:52,700 -- 00:57:54,500

Dismissed.

601

00:
58:04,900 -- 00:58:07,200

- Yes.

- It s Alfred.

602

00:
58:08,200 -- 00:58:09,300

Are you busy?

603

00:
58:10,200 -- 00:58:12,500

- What do you want?

- To talk.

604

00:
58:12,500 -- 00:58:16,700

I m expecting someone

who wouldn t like to see you.

605

00:
58:37,900 -- 00:58:40,000

Duty inspection.

606

00:
58:41,100 -- 00:58:44,100

- Major, the password please.

- Schenitterin ruht.

607

00:
58:44,100 -- 00:58:47,900

- Who is the duty officer?

- Lt. Kubinyi, sir.

608

00:
58:47,900 -- 00:58:50,000

Where is he? Where?

609

00:
58:50,000 -- 00:58:51,800

He fell asleep

in the cafeteria.

610

00:
58:51,800 -- 00:58:54,700

- Why didn t you wake him?

- l did.

611

00:
58:54,700 -- 00:58:59,000

- Why isn t he here then?

- He said, sir...

612

00:
58:59,000 -- 00:59:01,800

he told me to go to hell.

613

00:
59:01,800 -- 00:59:03,700

I ll take over.

614

00:
59:03,700 -- 00:59:06,000

A serious breach of duty.

615

00:
59:06,000 -- 00:59:07,900

At war, you would be

court-martialled.

616

00:
59:07,900 -- 00:59:11,600

- Understood, Lieutenant?

- Yes, Colonel.

617

00:
59:12,600 -- 00:59:15,500

I m now forced to

transfer you.

618

00:
59:15,500 -- 00:59:20,000

Within 24 hours you ll report

to Helmut Haynert...

619

00:
59:20,000 -- 00:59:21,700

at the War Ministry.

620

00:
59:21,700 -- 00:59:23,900

He already knows.

621

00:
59:23,900 -- 00:59:26,600

Your future

will be decided in Vienna.

622

00:
59:26,600 -- 00:59:29,800

Oh, you fools.

Dismissed.

623

00:
59:34,100 -- 00:59:36,200

A farewell drink.

624

00:
59:38,600 -- 00:59:41,000

I m almost sorry for you.

625

00:
59:45,200 -- 00:59:48,300

l wonder if Redl s a Jew...

626

00:
59:48,300 -- 00:59:52,200

but instead of a caftan,

he wears uniform.

627

00:
59:52,200 -- 00:59:54,400

A great camouflage.

628

00:
59:54,400 -- 00:59:57,300

Redl will soon be

on the General Staff.

629

00:
59:58,200 -- 01:00:00,000

A Jew on the General Staff?.

630

01:
00:00,000 -- 01:00:02,600

Our top moron already is

in the hands...

631

01:
00:02,600 -- 01:00:04,200

of the Rothschild family.

632

01:
00:04,200 -- 01:00:05,800

l didn t thank Redl

for this trip.

633

01:
00:05,800 -- 01:00:10,400

Watch him, he might be

useful to us.

634

01:
00:21,700 -- 01:00:24,100

Go away.

635

01:
00:26,600 -- 01:00:28,400

Get lost!

636

01:
00:35,700 -- 01:00:37,300

Go!

637

01:
00:40,000 -- 01:00:44,700

Go away!

What do you want from me?

638

01:
00:44,700 -- 01:00:46,900

What do you want from me?

639

01:
01:09,800 -- 01:01:13,200

Major, may l ask you,

are you also a Jew?

640

01:
01:13,200 -- 01:01:15,600

Through your mother?

641

01:
01:15,600 -- 01:01:18,500

Several people have say so.

642

01:
01:18,500 -- 01:01:20,900

l also heard, you don t like

to mention it.

643

01:
01:20,900 -- 01:01:23,200

Maybe you re right.

644

01:
01:23,200 -- 01:01:26,600

l won t tell anyone.

My heart s just overjoyed.

645

01:
01:45,400 -- 01:01:49,500

- May l sit down, Major?

- Please.

646

01:
01:52,900 -- 01:01:56,000

lf you excuse me, Major...

647

01:
01:56,000 -- 01:01:59,700

my wife would like to

invite you...

648

01:
01:59,700 -- 01:02:03,700

to our Friday night supper.

649

01:
02:03,700 -- 01:02:08,000

Lt. Ehrlich feels quite

at home with us, too.

650

01:
02:08,000 -- 01:02:11,500

A large family and

beautiful children, Major.

651

01:
02:11,500 -- 01:02:15,100

Don t!

Don t touch me!

652

01:
02:25,100 -- 01:02:28,500

l have to warn you,

Lt. Ehrlich...

653

01:
02:28,500 -- 01:02:33,000

and all other gentlemen,

including our doctor...

654

01:
02:33,000 -- 01:02:38,100

that close contact with

the Jews is to be avoided.

655

01:
02:38,100 -- 01:02:40,300

Our supreme Commander,

His Majesty...

656

01:
02:40,300 -- 01:02:42,700

allows Jewish soldiers...

657

01:
02:42,700 -- 01:02:46,000

to entry into the Officer

Corps of the Royal Army.

658

01:
02:46,000 -- 01:02:49,600

lf most comfortable with

junk merchants in a caftan...

659

01:
02:49,600 -- 01:02:52,600

you shouldn t be

in uniform.

660

01:
02:54,300 -- 01:02:55,800

There s something else.

661

01:
02:56,700 -- 01:02:59,100

Some of the Jews here...

662

01:
02:59,100 -- 01:03:02,700

no, let s say

most of the Jews here...

663

01:
03:02,700 -- 01:03:08,400

have trading connections

with Jews across the border.

664

01:
03:08,400 -- 01:03:12,400

Vodka, fabrics, God knows

what else is being smuggled.

665

01:
03:12,400 -- 01:03:15,900

We suspect that information

is traded as well...

666

01:
03:15,900 -- 01:03:18,600

gathered from some

officer during...

667

01:
03:18,600 -- 01:03:22,400

the family s

gefilte fish dinner.

668

01:
03:23,400 -- 01:03:25,600

We must decide.

669

01:
03:25,600 -- 01:03:29,100

Either you re an officer

of the Imperial Army...

670

01:
03:29,100 -- 01:03:30,900

or a Slovak...

671

01:
03:30,900 -- 01:03:32,400

or a Ukrainian...

672

01:
03:33,800 -- 01:03:35,700

or a Jew.

673

01:
03:39,000 -- 01:03:41,500

Dear Sonnenschein,

old doctor.

674

01:
03:41,500 -- 01:03:44,400

l haven t hear from you

for awhile.

675

01:
03:47,800 -- 01:03:53,100

A woman wants to see you.

She said she s your sister.

676

01:
03:53,100 -- 01:03:56,600

- What does she look like?

- She s elderly.

677

01:
04:02,800 -- 01:04:05,900

- Tell her I m busy.

- Yes, sir.

678

01:
04:05,900 -- 01:04:09,600

Hold on! Send her in.

679

01:
04:13,900 -- 01:04:17,300

- Alfred?

- Soferl!

680

01:
04:19,400 -- 01:04:22,000

Soferl, what are you

doing here?

681

01:
04:22,000 -- 01:04:26,100

Mother sends her love.

We heard you were here.

682

01:
04:26,100 -- 01:04:30,400

- From whom?

- A soldier, Schilhanek s son.

683

01:
04:31,700 -- 01:04:35,800

Yes, mother sends her love.

Ilse and the children, too.

684

01:
04:35,800 -- 01:04:40,600

Magda has moved

with her husband.

685

01:
04:40,600 -- 01:04:46,500

- Are there any problems?

- No more than usual.

686

01:
04:46,500 -- 01:04:48,400

Something important

to tell me?

687

01:
04:48,400 -- 01:04:49,600

No.

688

01:
04:49,600 -- 01:04:52,000

Please. You need money?

689

01:
04:52,000 -- 01:04:54,600

István Szabó

István Szabó (Hungarian: [ˈsɒboː ˈiʃtvaːn]; born February 18, 1938) is a Hungarian film director, screenwriter, and opera director. Szabó is the most internationally famous Hungarian filmmaker since the late 1960s. Working in the tradition of European auteurism, he has made films that represent many of the political and psychological conflicts of Central Europe’s recent history, as well as of his own personal history. He made his first short film in 1959 as a student at the Hungarian Academy of Theatrical and Cinematic Arts, and his first feature film in 1964. He achieved his greatest international success with Mephisto (1981), which won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Since then, most of Szabó's films have been international co-productions filmed in a variety of languages and European locations. He has continued to make some films in Hungarian, however, and even in his international co-productions, he often films in Hungary and uses Hungarian talent. Szabó became involved in a national controversy in 2006 when the Hungarian newspaper Life and Literature revealed that he had been an informant of the Communist regime’s secret police. more…
