Mephisto Page #14

ha ving a hard time.

1146

01:
54:52,699 -- 01:54:56,066

If I lea ve, nothing better

will replace me.

1147

01:
54:56,636 -- 01:54:57,694

Words!

1148

01:
54:58,705 -- 01:55:00,969

It's alwa ys the same with you.

1149

01:
55:01,074 -- 01:55:04,373

Your method of self-deception

is still intact.

1150

01:
55:05,178 -- 01:55:11,117

Don't you see? Whoe ver you sa ve,

it's only a gesture to your friends.

1151

01:
55:11,451 -- 01:55:15,979

You're in a show-case, legalizing

these people will be attached to you.

1152

01:
55:16,122 -- 01:55:19,888

We can't choose when

and where we're born.

1153

01:
55:20,193 -- 01:55:22,184

An entire people can't emigrate.

1154

01:
55:22,295 -- 01:55:27,528

As an actor I'm obliged to live in

my country, to observe and portra y it.

1155

01:
55:27,634 -- 01:55:31,832

And I can tell you, there are

decent people among them.

1156

01:
55:32,205 -- 01:55:39,270

I hate coffee shop intellectuals and

I hate such resistance-fighters, too.

1157

01:
55:39,379 -- 01:55:45,284

The really valuable, such as theater

and art can rise abo ve e verything.

1158

01:
55:45,719 -- 01:55:47,346

That's my conviction.

1159

01:
55:47,520 -- 01:55:49,954

Why did you want to meet me?

1160

01:
55:50,523 -- 01:55:54,050

Well, I don't really know why.

1161

01:
55:57,797 -- 01:56:00,322

It might e ven be dangerous for you.

1162

01:
56:03,903 -- 01:56:07,430

Tell me, Barbara, did you e ver...

1163

01:
56:09,009 -- 01:56:10,601

...really lo ve me?

1164

01:
56:13,580 -- 01:56:19,917

Why did I come here toda y? If you'd

been listening, you wouldn't ask that.

1165

01:
56:21,621 -- 01:56:25,148

If you don't accept what's

happening in Germany...

1166

01:
56:25,258 -- 01:56:27,192

...why do you still live there?

1167

01:
56:27,327 -- 01:56:29,761

What does freedom mean for you?

1168

01:
56:30,030 -- 01:56:34,524

Do you need it to live? Or do you just

need to be successful and lo ved?

1169

01:
56:34,801 -- 01:56:38,134

I'm satisfied with success.

It means many lo ve me.

1170

01:
56:38,238 -- 01:56:41,036

And the fury of the envious

does me good.

1171

01:
56:41,474 -- 01:56:46,070

Don't make me responsible

for the impotence of your friends.

1172

01:
56:46,212 -- 01:56:49,238

- Mr. Hfgen.

- Mr. Da vidson, this is a surprise.

1173

01:
57:04,698 -- 01:57:07,326

The check, please.

1174

01:
57:08,468 -- 01:57:10,026

Ha ve I come too early?

1175

01:
57:11,237 -- 01:57:12,602

Farewell, Barbara.

1176

01:
57:15,375 -- 01:57:16,740

Ma y I pa y?

1177

01:
57:35,228 -- 01:57:36,957

What could I do here?

1178

01:
57:49,442 -- 01:57:50,807

Freedom...

1179

01:
57:52,412 -- 01:57:53,606

What for?

1180

01:
59:14,828 -- 01:59:16,420

Oberon and Titania.

1181

01:
59:22,035 -- 01:59:23,502

Congratulations!

1182

01:
59:25,004 -- 01:59:31,603

I greet our wonderful and truly

tantalizing German bride and groom.

1183

01:
59:31,711 -- 01:59:35,306

Two young, yet mature people...

1184

01:
59:35,415 -- 01:59:39,875

...of purest race and noblest blood,

who ha ve enchanted us...

1185

01:
59:39,986 -- 01:59:44,889

...and who serve our new society!

1186

01:
59:51,564 -- 01:59:54,431

- Thank you.

- All the best.

1187

02:
00:01,908 -- 02:00:04,706

General, nice of you to come.

1188

02:
00:05,144 -- 02:00:09,478

The y can sa y what the y want.

For me, the world is Grunewald.

1189

02:
00:13,753 -- 02:00:19,089

I'll remain a German artist and patriot,

no matter who ma y rule my land.

1190

02:
00:19,225 -- 02:00:22,820

Grunewald is my fa vorite place...

1191

02:
00:22,929 -- 02:00:26,160

...and what other country

brews such good beer?

1192

02:
00:26,266 -- 02:00:28,860

Csar, nice to see you.

1193

02:
00:31,638 -- 02:00:36,598

You can hold your rehearsals

in this villa.

1194

02:
00:38,177 -- 02:00:42,739

We're very proud of the wa y

you spoke in Paris.

1195

02:
00:42,849 -- 02:00:48,151

The wa y you simply answered

all the questions...

1196

02:
00:48,755 -- 02:00:53,488

...and said quite frankly and

honestly what it's like here.

1197

02:
02:04,597 -- 02:02:06,531

Carry on dancing.

1198

02:
02:08,167 -- 02:02:09,191

Good e vening.

1199

02:
02:11,137 -- 02:02:15,198

Now, that's a surprise!

I won't sa y no to that.

1200

02:
02:26,486 -- 02:02:29,546

- Congratulations, my Mephisto.

- Thank you.

1201

02:
02:29,656 -- 02:02:35,253

Now, as old Admiral Tirpitz said:

"Target sighted! Full speed ahead!"

1202

02:
02:35,361 -- 02:02:38,558

I'm looking forward to

your Hamlet, my Mephisto.

1203

02:
02:39,932 -- 02:02:44,892

Your interview in Paris made a

good impression on all of us.

1204

02:
02:47,240 -- 02:02:51,609

Congratulations!

And lots of healthy German bo ys!

1205

02:
02:51,978 -- 02:02:52,967

Thank you.

1206

02:
02:56,516 -- 02:02:57,540

Madam?

1207

02:
03:02,121 -- 02:03:03,213

Bea utiful.

1208

02:
03:09,862 -- 02:03:13,696

Yes, very much to my taste.

1209

02:
03:27,680 -- 02:03:29,079

Very lo vely.

1210

02:
03:31,651 -- 02:03:33,118

Thank you, Madam.

1211

02:
03:36,422 -- 02:03:37,446

Cheers!

1212

02:
03:40,860 -- 02:03:43,351

We ha ve no working hours, just work.

1213

02:
03:44,330 -- 02:03:46,321

I'm sorry, I must go now.

1214

02:
03:51,437 -- 02:03:55,032

Be happy together... Hamlet.

1215

02:
06:01,667 -- 02:06:07,401

Lately I've been wondering whether

we actually deserve all this.

1216

02:
06:08,140 -- 02:06:11,871

If I'm forced to answer,

then I must sa y "Yes."

1217

02:
06:11,978 -- 02:06:16,415

If not we, who represent

individuality and art...

1218

02:
06:16,983 -- 02:06:21,977

...who else should, can and must rise

abo ve all that happens in the world?

1219

02:
06:22,088 -- 02:06:26,422

That's why we're an e xample

and encouragement to others.

1220

02:
06:26,592 -- 02:06:29,288

No matter how filthy the world is...

1221

02:
06:29,395 -- 02:06:34,765

...true art alwa ys remains pure

and true, doesn't it?

1222

02:
06:34,867 -- 02:06:37,097

I'm married to the theater.

1223

02:
06:38,170 -- 02:06:39,330

And so are you.

1224

02:
06:40,339 -- 02:06:45,800

I can't contact Otto Ulrichs.

I sent a messenger to his flat...

1225

02:
06:45,912 -- 02:06:52,784

...but he was told that two men

took Ulrichs awa y two da ys ago.

1226

02:
07:05,631 -- 02:07:10,125

Call the Prime Minister and

connect me with him.

1227

02:
07:11,671 -- 02:07:16,108

If he's not there, ask for an

appointment as soon as possible.

1228

02:
07:18,411 -- 02:07:20,038

- Hello?

- Give it to me.

1229

02:
07:21,580 -- 02:07:22,740

Hfgen.

1230

02:
07:24,250 -- 02:07:28,277

- Hello.

- Do come in.

1231

02:
07:40,333 -- 02:07:42,824

- Hello.

- Do come in.

1232

02:
07:48,941 -- 02:07:50,909

Well, what's going on?

1233

02:
07:52,044 -- 02:07:55,571

Recently you helped me, on

behalf of a colleague.

1234

02:
07:57,316 -- 02:07:59,443

Now I ha ve to ask again for help.

1235

02:
08:00,987 -- 02:08:02,284

The thing is...

1236
