01:
09:05,373 -- 01:09:07,475

I haven't worked because of the flood.

497

01:
09:07,475 -- 01:09:10,378

It's not because I'm lazy!

Mom, breast-feed the baby.

498

01:
09:10,378 -- 01:09:13,379

Your mother's milk already

feeds someone else.

499

01:
09:13,379 -- 01:09:15,750

Take her out of here!

500

01:
09:15,750 -- 01:09:18,751

Crying all day long.

501

01:
09:19,388 -- 01:09:21,222

I already told you,

502

01:
09:21,222 -- 01:09:23,091

if we don't have money to buy a dress,

503

01:
09:23,091 -- 01:09:24,959

then let them quit school.

504

01:
09:24,959 -- 01:09:27,960

I didn't tell you to breast-feed

a dying, old man for money.

505

01:
09:32,501 -- 01:09:35,036

We'll eat porridge to survive.

506

01:
09:35,036 -- 01:09:38,037

Look at Rich,

she cries of hunger all day long.

507

01:
09:39,842 -- 01:09:42,842

But instead of breast-feeding her...

508

01:
09:43,579 -- 01:09:46,579

...how shameful!

509

01:
09:58,994 -- 01:10:00,962

Even if I had to become a whore

to take care of my children,

510

01:
10:00,962 -- 01:10:03,064

l,d do it.

511

01:
10:03,064 -- 01:10:05,166

I would not be ashamed.

512

01:
10:05,166 -- 01:10:08,102

As for you...

513

01:
10:08,102 -- 01:10:10,471

...are you ashamed people will know

514

01:
10:10,471 -- 01:10:13,472

that your wife breast-feeds an old man?

515

01:
10:16,245 -- 01:10:19,245

Or are you ashamed that I have earned

money to take care of our children?

516

01:
10:21,917 -- 01:10:23,585

As for me...

517

01:
10:23,585 -- 01:10:26,586

...I am only ashamed that we brought them

518

01:
10:29,124 -- 01:10:32,124

into this world and are not able

to take care of them.

519

01:
10:44,206 -- 01:10:47,206

Instead of feeling guilty, you sit there

with your big mouth lecturing me.

520

01:
10:47,742 -- 01:10:49,944

Just because you gave birth to them,

521

01:
10:49,944 -- 01:10:51,179

you think you can say whatever you want

522

01:
10:51,179 -- 01:10:54,180

and do whatever you want with this family!

523

01:
12:37,486 -- 01:12:38,319

Hello. Mrs. Dan.

524

01:
12:38,319 -- 01:12:39,721

What are you doing here at this hour?

525

01:
12:39,721 -- 01:12:42,722

Luckily, you are still awake.

526

01:
12:43,425 -- 01:12:46,425

I was afraid...it's late.

I didn't want to bother you.

527

01:
12:47,062 -- 01:12:49,230

But I didn't know who else to turn to.

528

01:
12:49,230 -- 01:12:52,231

What happened? Please, have a seat.

529

01:
12:58,040 -- 01:13:01,040

I took a risk to come here.

530

01:
13:01,443 -- 01:13:03,478

I know you are busy, but...

531

01:
13:03,478 -- 01:13:06,479

...please help me re-cut

my white silk dress.

532

01:
13:13,889 -- 01:13:15,623

It's for my daughters.

533

01:
13:15,623 -- 01:13:17,291

I'll be forever in your debt.

534

01:
13:17,291 -- 01:13:20,292

Let me see.

535

01:
13:50,325 -- 01:13:53,325

How do I look? Am I beautiful?

536

01:
13:53,729 -- 01:13:56,729

Do I look like a bride?

537

01:
14:01,770 -- 01:14:04,571

You look beautiful.

538

01:
14:04,571 -- 01:14:06,741

As beautiful as a painting.

539

01:
14:06,741 -- 01:14:09,742

No different than a real bride.

540

01:
18:05,748 -- 01:18:07,515

Thank you so much.

541

01:
18:07,515 -- 01:18:10,017

I don't know

how else to show my gratitude.

542

01:
18:10,017 -- 01:18:11,718

You don't have to thank me.

543

01:
18:11,718 -- 01:18:13,555

We,re fellow country people.

544

01:
18:13,555 -- 01:18:16,490

And we hardly get a chance to talk.

545

01:
18:16,490 -- 01:18:17,725

Look, they've already started

the curfew outside.

546

01:
18:17,725 -- 01:18:20,428

Why don't you stay here

and go home early tomorrow morning?

547

01:
18:20,428 -- 01:18:22,563

You,re very kind,

548

01:
18:22,563 -- 01:18:25,564

but my husband and kids are

waiting for me at home.

549

01:
18:26,368 -- 01:18:27,501

Okay. Goodbye.

550

01:
18:27,501 -- 01:18:28,461

Goodbye.

551

01:
18:48,156 -- 01:18:51,156

Who's there? Stop right there!

552

01:
18:52,728 -- 01:18:54,395

Where are you going at this hour?

553

01:
18:54,395 -- 01:18:55,596

Didn't you hear the curfew siren?

554

01:
18:55,596 -- 01:18:56,530

Where do you think you,re going?

555

01:
18:56,530 -- 01:18:58,765

I went to get a dress tailored

at Kim Hong's tailor shop.

556

01:
18:58,765 -- 01:19:01,535

I heard the siren,

but I have a baby at home.

557

01:
19:01,535 -- 01:19:02,770

So I took a chance going

home at this time.

558

01:
19:02,770 -- 01:19:05,771

Please take pity on me.

559

01:
19:06,743 -- 01:19:09,743

What's that? You went to the tailor shop

this late? Yes, sir.

560

01:
19:09,978 -- 01:19:11,312

Take her to the police station and

question her. Please take pity on me,

561

01:
19:11,312 -- 01:19:14,313

I have a small baby at home.

What's this?

562

01:
19:14,516 -- 01:19:16,917

"Everybody. Let's stick together.

We've got to stand up and willingly die"

563

01:
19:16,917 -- 01:19:19,420

to fight against the American empire and

its henchmen in order to

564

01:
19:19,420 -- 01:19:22,421

gain our independence

and reunify our country.

565

01:
19:22,421 -- 01:19:25,491

On behalf of HCM, a national front

for South Viet Nam's liberation.

566

01:
19:37,839 -- 01:19:40,074

What's this?

567

01:
19:40,074 -- 01:19:42,576

Honestly, I don't know, Sir.

568

01:
19:42,576 -- 01:19:43,826

Liar!

569

01:
19:44,880 -- 01:19:47,880

If you,re not Viet Cong,

then what is this?

570

01:
19:49,184 -- 01:19:51,719

A prescription for your mother?

571

01:
19:51,719 -- 01:19:52,419

Sir, I...

572

01:
19:52,419 -- 01:19:53,669

Liar!

573

01:
20:02,264 -- 01:20:05,264

One more time, tell me what this is?

574

01:
21:12,434 -- 01:21:13,394

Hey you!

575

01:
21:17,772 -- 01:21:20,772

Take this home.

576

01:
21:44,905 -- 01:21:45,625

Dan...

577

01:
22:02,256 -- 01:22:02,976

Dan...

578

01:
22:15,269 -- 01:22:18,269

What happened to you?

Who did this to you?

579

01:
32:47,935 -- 01:32:50,935

An wears that white silk dress

as beautifully as you did.

580

01:
32:53,040 -- 01:32:56,040

Her eyes sparkling.

581

01:
32:57,744 -- 01:33:00,744

I know I didn't promise you

anything good

582

01:
33:02,416 -- 01:33:05,283

when I took you to the South.

583

01:
33:05,283 -- 01:33:08,284

What I wanted was to escape

the poverty we came from.

584

01:
33:11,591 -- 01:33:14,591

But I feel so ashamed.

585

01:
33:14,591 -- 01:33:17,695

My failure as a husband

586

01:
33:19,967 -- 01:33:21,701

makes me useless as a father.

587

01:
33:21,701 -- 01:33:24,702

Only a white dress for

my daughters to go to school

588

01:
33:25,339 -- 01:33:28,339

and I couldn't even provide it.

589

01:
33:29,242 -- 01:33:31,510

So you sacrificed your wedding dress.

590

01:
33:31,510 -- 01:33:33,713

Instead of loving you more,

I scolded you and beat you.

591

01:
33:33,713 -- 01:33:36,714

What a bastard I am!

592

01:
33:38,151 -- 01:33:41,151

I'm not angry with you.

593

01:
33:41,688 -- 01:33:43,622

If I were a man
