A title helps to make her certain
your art e x ceeds that of your peers.
722
01:
13:26,315 -- 01:13:30,718And ma y grant you a glimpse of which
another schemes for many years.
723
01:
13:30,820 -- 01:13:33,812Her pulse you must learn to feel.
724
01:
13:33,923 -- 01:13:38,326then must steal.
725
01:
13:38,427 -- 01:13:46,391Her slender hips are then embraced
to see how tightly she is laced.
726
01:
13:47,036 -- 01:13:50,699That's what I could care for.
727
01:
13:51,841 -- 01:13:57,245Gra y, my friend is all theory.
And green the golden tree of life.
728
01:
13:58,748 -- 01:14:00,272That's the wa y.
729
01:
14:22,738 -- 01:14:26,834I greet the learned gentleman!
You made me to sweat profusely.
730
01:
14:26,942 -- 01:14:29,536- What is your name?
- The question's odd...
731
01:
14:29,645 -- 01:14:32,307...for someone who idle talk despises.
732
01:
14:32,414 -- 01:14:36,407Who, far remo ved from worldly show
seeks only academic prizes.
733
01:
14:37,219 -- 01:14:41,315With you, one knows your game
generally by your very name.
734
01:
14:41,423 -- 01:14:46,019It's e vident, Sire
if one's called a liar.
735
01:
14:46,695 -- 01:14:47,684Who are you?
736
01:
14:47,797 -- 01:14:50,027I'm a part of that force...
737
01:
14:50,166 -- 01:14:53,863...that alwa ys cra ves e vil
and alwa ys creates good.
738
01:
14:53,969 -- 01:14:55,493What is this riddle?
739
01:
14:55,604 -- 01:14:57,595I'm the spirit who negates.
740
01:
14:57,706 -- 01:15:02,075And rightly so, for all creation
is worthy of annihilation.
741
01:
15:02,178 -- 01:15:04,840So it were better,
nothing were created.
742
01:
15:04,947 -- 01:15:10,010And so e verything you've stated
is sin, destruction, de vilment.
743
01:
15:10,152 -- 01:15:12,643Remains my actual element.
744
01:
15:14,356 -- 01:15:17,757Good e vening. The Prime Minister
invites you to his bo x.
745
01:
15:19,662 -- 01:15:20,651Yes.
746
01:
15:32,174 -- 01:15:34,165It's all going like clockwork.
747
01:
15:49,325 -- 01:15:53,318Ma y I introduce you to
my distinguished colleague?
748
01:
15:53,762 -- 01:15:55,662Ah, our Mephistoles.
749
01:
16:10,346 -- 01:16:11,779Congratulations.
750
01:
16:13,415 -- 01:16:17,249That mask is perfect, it's e vil itself.
It's sacred e vil.
751
01:
16:18,120 -- 01:16:23,922Yet, your e yes are so kind,
your handshake so soft. It's strange...
752
01:
16:24,660 -- 01:16:31,725...it seems the secret of acting is
to portra y strength, yet one is weak.
753
01:
16:35,905 -- 01:16:41,741I imagine you've prepared
for this role for a long time.
754
01:
16:42,044 -- 01:16:44,239All my life, Prime Minister.
755
01:
16:44,914 -- 01:16:49,942That's the only wa y.
That is the secret of greatness.
756
01:
17:25,087 -- 01:17:26,418Break a leg.
757
01:
17:27,556 -- 01:17:30,024Carry on the good work, Mephistoles.
758
01:
17:43,105 -- 01:17:44,470Hfgen residence.
759
01:
17:45,140 -- 01:17:46,266Lotte Lindenthal.
760
01:
17:49,778 -- 01:17:50,676Hfgen.
761
01:
17:50,779 -- 01:17:52,041- Hendrik?
- Yes.
762
01:
17:52,147 -- 01:17:55,344Will you come to us
after tonight's performance?
763
01:
17:55,517 -- 01:17:57,815There'll be just a few friends here.
764
01:
17:57,920 -- 01:18:01,822With pleasure. Thank you very much.
765
01:
18:03,759 -- 01:18:10,665Bck!
Just a few friends will be there.
766
01:
18:16,705 -- 01:18:18,730Am I not an incredible villain?
767
01:
18:19,108 -- 01:18:22,202Why a villain?
You're just successful, Mr. Hfgen.
768
01:
18:22,444 -- 01:18:27,507To the renewal of German culture.
Long live the actors.
769
01:
18:35,124 -- 01:18:39,356Our theater has many elements that
ha ve nothing to do with Germany.
770
01:
18:39,528 -- 01:18:44,124We must set up a customs control
of the mind for culture smugglers...
771
01:
18:44,933 -- 01:18:50,565...to stop foreign elements poisoning
German literature and theater.
772
01:
18:51,073 -- 01:18:55,510This can't be left entirely
to our frontier guards.
773
01:
18:55,778 -- 01:18:59,908Everyone must cooperate
in this control.
774
01:
19:00,249 -- 01:19:02,410- Am I understood?
- Yes, General.
775
01:
19:03,852 -- 01:19:06,116There are many who
don't understand.
776
01:
19:07,289 -- 01:19:10,156Look at this painting, my Mephisto.
777
01:
19:11,093 -- 01:19:13,618A masterpiece of
German romanticism.
778
01:
19:15,998 -- 01:19:21,527Where did I find it? At an art dealer
with an foreign accent.
779
01:
19:21,637 -- 01:19:25,073I had it restored. No, no...
780
01:
19:26,075 -- 01:19:30,171...the future of painting doesn't
belong to the Liebermanns.
781
01:
19:30,612 -- 01:19:32,910Your Mephisto occupies my mind.
782
01:
19:33,215 -- 01:19:37,447You've brought him alive.
He's a hell of a guy.
783
01:
19:38,454 -- 01:19:41,389Isn't there a little of him in all of us?
784
01:
19:42,324 -- 01:19:47,125I mean, isn't there a bit of Mephisto
in e very German?
785
01:
19:47,596 -- 01:19:52,693Wouldn't our enemies lo ve it if we
had nothing but the soul of Fa ust?
786
01:
19:52,835 -- 01:19:58,364No, Mephisto is also
787
01:
19:58,474 -- 01:20:01,068It's just something we
mustn't tell people.
788
01:
20:02,945 -- 01:20:04,708I must go now.
789
01:
20:04,913 -- 01:20:09,782Come to my office at 10:30,
the da y after tomorrow.
790
01:
20:09,885 -- 01:20:13,685Some foreign journalists
want to know many things.
791
01:
20:13,822 -- 01:20:18,452Abo ve all, what 'Germany' means
toda y, and the German culture.
792
01:
20:18,560 -- 01:20:24,465I'll tell them. You can elaborate on
what I sa y about theater, for e xample.
793
01:
20:24,700 -- 01:20:29,433Painting, architecture, sculpture,
plenty to write about.
794
01:
20:29,671 -- 01:20:32,697I want them to be
informed by e xperts.
795
01:
20:36,678 -- 01:20:40,739Tell me, why do you ha ve
such a limp handshake?
796
01:
21:49,384 -- 01:21:55,084So, we meet again. How time flies!
You were wonderful as Mephisto.
797
01:
21:55,190 -- 01:21:59,320Now you act him more forcefully.
But I liked the other one, too.
798
01:
21:59,428 -- 01:22:04,092I sensed it in the seed of what
can now be unfolded to the full.
799
01:
22:04,199 -- 01:22:07,760I also liked you in the pla y
with Lotte Lindenthal.
800
01:
22:07,869 -- 01:22:12,033801
01:
22:12,140 -- 01:22:18,773What are we doing here? Why is
he wasting his time with foreigners?
802
01:
22:19,414 -- 01:22:26,149He said the y're interested in German
culture. The y'll ask a few questions.
803
01:
22:26,255 -- 01:22:28,985- I see. You spoke to him?
- Yes.
804
01:
22:29,091 -- 01:22:32,219How are you?
Nice to meet you again.
805
01:
22:32,327 -- 01:22:36,263The Prime Minister sent for me.
I hope this doesn't last too long.
