I refuse to accept your pessimism.
Yes, I am a pessimist...
...driven to despair by your stubborness, idiot!
I try to help you and collide with a wall of stupidity!
Stop this or get out of the car!
Korrianke, stop, please.
Karl! Karl! Be reasonable.
I believe he is being reasonable.
- Would not it be better...?
- Shut up! Home!
Okay, now my old friend, go to bed.
to work every night.
Unfortunately, I don't have time.
I have to go have my picture taken.
Why?
In case my wife forgets my face.
Korriandoli, we have to change that.
After you, General. No excuses...
Shut up!
He's home now.
Yes, alone.
There was another officer in the car
but he got out on the way here.
Good morning, Hartmann. Did you sleep well?
I'll make us something to eat.
The bathroom is there.
We have to hurry.
You have to be ready to leave at 8:30.
All leaves were canceled.
- We returning to the front?
- Yes, for Russia..
I'm sorry, son.
Thank God!
What?
What was that?
- "Thank God", General.
- What do you mean?
I mean I want to be there with my comrades.
You can stop the pretense, Hartmann.
I want to know what you were
thinking with that "Thank God."
Stop this hide-and-seek!
I thought if I'm not good enough to live...
...then at least I am fit to die.
Listen, son.
I'm an old soldier.
And I've come to understand a few things
about it. Any self-respecting man,...
...in war as in everything else....
...must have hope and a will to live.
...when this b*tch of a war is over?
I never had a real home...
...before joining the Hitler Youth.
My house has been the training grounds...
...and then my squadron.
Listen well, Hartmann. You are young, but
you do not realize something.
Life smiles at you though you can't see it.
This world is wonderful, believe me.
everything possible to destroy it...
...and have some success at it...
...we can not go against our true nature.
Life is good. Its meaning escapes me...
...but when everything is in
order, it becomes clear.
Come back.
Think no more of death...
...but only of life.
Live long, grow old - a wish for you
as well as for myself.
- Want me to get that?
- No, I will.
Do you know the difference between
Switzerland and Germany?
In Switzerland, when someone comes to the door
at this hour, it's the milkman.
Going to Rheinsberg?
That makes you laugh?
Sorry, Diddo.
to explain why I'm laughing.
General Harras?
We have to talk to you, in private.
Come in.
- Who was that?
- I think it's the police.
The police?
But I must inform headquarters.
I have an important meeting at 11.
Sorry but I can not let you call.
What's happening with General Harras?
- Who are you?
- Dorothea Geiss.
- Secretary or something?
- No, actress.
Ah, I see.
Military ID? On leave?
I do not have to identify myself to a civilian.
Secret State Police.
What do you want with General Harras?
It's nothing, my dear.
We must leave Rheinsberg for another day!
I have a meeting in the city.
I should not be long but I have to go.
Maybe I can make it to the theater tonight.
Can I do anything for you?
No. Well ...
Yes, yes...take my watch to be fixed.
See you.
Stay well, Hartmann...
...and come back!
See you soon, General!
Of course.
You have not seen or heard anything.
Otherwise, there will be problems. Understand?
Gentlemen, I regret to inform you...
that today's meeting has been
postponed indefinitely...
suddenly called away...
for an inspection at the front this morning.
What should we do with him now?
I mean, who should conduct
the investigation?
There will be no investigation.
There will be, however,...
...some kind of...
psychological treatment.
- Ah, I understand.
- I don't think you do.
- St. Nicholas Day.
Take notes.
First:
...For the first, say, ten days ...
- He is very quiet.
- Now.
But you should have seen
him the first few days...
...after he got here.
He kept asking to make phone calls.
And him with no change, right?
On behalf of the People, Willi Naumann
is sentenced to death for sabotage.
This is not him.
You are called Jolowicz?
What is your name?
Thought so.
Dismissed!
Ah, he's quite clever.
He realized we're taking his picture.
And now with the chest plate,
so that everyone immediately knows your number.
Raise your head!
And now profile.
Raise your head!
This goes into the album.
Be not proud of prosperity,...
do not complain in unhappiness,...
bear the inevitable with dignity!
And now we play the piano.
However ...
One of you took my cigarettes by mistake?
We were not even here.
Well, let's have the fingers.
The left first.
What were you thinking?
And two are missing!
You're an expert.
Every one of them robbers...
...whether political or criminal.
It makes no difference.
Good thing he had not
noticed the bottle of cognac...
Has ammonia in it.
We do not have long fingers.
Long fingers are good.
This is the only one?
We looked everywhere.
We have no other record of "Harras".
Then find the record and
take this dog out of here.
I have to leave now on an official trip.
Please, can't you do something?
I've been locked up in here an eternity.
I have no time. Why are you here?
I don't know!!
How can I help...
...without knowing why you are here?
Where is the arrest warrant?
There is nothing here besides this form.
- There is nothing in the entire building.
- No arrest warrant?
And how did you get in here?
I knew it was a big mistake.
Please let me go.
Even if you are correct,...
how can I process a release...
...without an official arrest warrant?
- The car is here?
- In the courtyard.
Glad to get out of this trash for a few weeks.
Merry Christmas.
I will forward your mail to Lublin.
Commander Schmidt-Lausitz? Zernick.
We are ready.
General Harras?
General Harras!
For God's sake, what's happened to you?
How are you?
Tell me, who is his interrogator?
Commander Zernick.
He will hear from me.
Zernick!
Harras, I am deeply shaken.
I will take action immediately.
Catch him!
Of course, we also thought
you were at the front.
I have been.
How? Oh, yes. Of course.
In the past...
not understand, Harras.
Where were your best friends during all this?
Of course not.
The Inspector General of the Ministry of Aviation
is expected to go to the front.
Can I shave?
You can use my razor, General.
It's all here.
Your personal property...
Suitcase and wallet.
Count your money, please.
Belt, tie, shoelaces.
- Sign here, please.
- Come on, man!
Very stupid, this whole story.
Shut up and get out!
We'll talk soon.
Damn idiot.
What's wrong with you, Harras?
Not feeling well?
