Warsaw '44 Page #2

---

- Stefan.

- But we have already met.

- It doesn't matter, let's do it again.

- Nice to meet you.

Well, well!

Nalkowska visits us and

she must've drummed

all this emancipation

into Ala's head.

Okay, who's drumming emancipation

here in the first place?

That's just like Papa.

Please join us for dinner!

He's not shy,

he's just unrefined.

You know what his

situation is at home.

His mother is

apparently not quite...

- No.

- So you said.

We'll get back before curfew?

Mum is probably worried.

We eat, then we go.

An uprising in these circumstances

makes no sense.

The Russians will come.

But they're bound to stay for good.

- The West will help.

- We are part of Europe.

They don't give a damn

about our country.

The Poles are counting on Russian help,

but so far no-one's heard

of any talks with Stalin,

who doesn't give a damn about us,

pardon my French.

I need to go.

Who's got the keys?

- Don't you like it here?

- I need to go.

- Stefan wants to go home.

- No, we'll go in the morning.

We have to wait.

The goods arrive in the morning.

As in the paintings of Delacroix.

Dad, nobody's listening.

- Stefan, what is it?

- You said fifteen minutes!

A hero! Alright!

How is it?

Here you are at last!

Quiet!

Can you hear it?

The front line!

Things are going to happen!

How could you do this to me?

You've been lying all this time!

I thought they've killed you!

You promised!

You're a traitor!

- Mum, please!

- You're a liar!

- Mum, please!

- Everyone's lying.

You're all liars!

He also lied he'd return home!

Can't you get it?

He also said

he would return home!

I've got no one left, I'm all alone...

There's no one left, I'm all alone...

Sweetheart, get up.

Get up!

Wake mum up,

I don't have the guts to.

Don't sit there.

- The Russians have reached Warsaw.

- Yeah, and...?

The uprising starts today,

I've just found out.

The further away from the city, the better.

You're going to thank me for that!

Myshkin...

What am I to do?

Tell me.

- How's my horse?

- It's still not ready.

Hi!

- So, can I ride it now?

- No, you can't.

- Please!

- Back to your friends.

- It's gonna be fine soon!

- Great!

- At the factory.

- Today?

How long can it take?

They say two or three days.

The Soviets have taken Legionowo.

Kama!

See you!

Coming.

Let's go.

Jasio!

Come see! Mum's cooking.

Jasio! Have a try!

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Tell me.

I can't.

Please.

Oh, stop it.

- Where are you going?

- Jasio!

- Jasio, please!

- Don't leave me.

Please!

I don't want to be alone.

You mustn't snivel.

Take care of mum, the way I do, OK?

You can't tell mum, OK?

Please don't go.

You won't leave me, right?

Don't tell mum...

Jasio!

Please don't go.

Gosh... this is beautiful...

- Hi, guys!

- No respect for orders!

- Rogal, here you are.

- Why didn't you come tomorrow?

Thanks, the right or the left arm?

- The left one.

- Here you are.

- So...

It's going to be an interesting day.

Who's afraid? Admit it!

- Me.

- Yeah, sure!

Where's Aleksander?

This VIS is rather for an officer.

Perhaps you could use it.

You're right!

How many of you are there?

There were eight,

but one didn't make it.

How many of you 'are'

not 'were' there?

Seven.

Take mine.

Thank you.

Attention!

Listen, we're joining another detail.

This is Cobra.

At ease.

- Lieutenant Cobra.

- Greetings.

All men - weaklings,

but the girls are gorgeous...

Now, together we're going to...

eat, sleep...

and maybe even...

- ... do a little singing.

- I've already got a partner for a duet.

Which one?

He's not here yet.

The absent have no say.

Let's shake hands.

Thank you. The map.

There are Jewish prisoners

in the building.

We're covering an

attack from the north.

This is a school.

We're attacking from the front.

Where are the others?

We had no way of

letting them know.

So, we're missing half of our people too.

We'll get by.

Let it start!

What about... the weapons?

Don't you have your own?

Where from?

Spider, give a hand grenade each.

Excuse me. We're attacking

with just two pieces?

Two days tops and it'll be over.

Attention!

Soldiers of the Polish

Underground State!

Soviet divisions are waiting

on the outskirts of the capital.

We're counting on them

to take advantage of our uprising

and enter the city within days.

Remember who you pledged allegiance to.

You answer only to

the Polish Commander-in-Chief

and the command of the Home Army.

There is no fraternising

with the Bolsheviks.

The Soviets are to be treated with reserve,

as allies of our allies.

Disperse!

At ease!

To your positions.

Rogal!

Spider!

Crybaby! Grenade!

- Should I throw it?

- No, bloody eat it!

Stefan, stop...

Stefan, stop!

Get back!

That's an order!

Stefan, stop!

Stop!

Turn round!

Hands up!

We've got a prisoner.

Don't be afraid.

We're Polish soldiers.

There's an uprising.

You are free.

Can I join you?

The uprising is almost over, mate...

You're free.

I want to fight.

The school's taken.

I have no-one else left.

Alright.

Come, mate, you can come in handy.

Stefan...

Give me the gun.

Playing a hero?

Try it again and you'll be sorry.

- Where are you heading, gentlemen?

- Paris, may I, madam.

- What's your name?

- What business is it of yours?

- Was I asking you?

- Want me to pick up your boy?

- First day behind us! Hi, girls!

- Hi!

They're gorgeous with

those uniforms on.

Wonder what they look

like with them off.

Please, leave this.

It's army supplies.

Rogal!

- This one or that one?

- This one.

Stefan!

You're on guard duty!

Watching the food.

- OK.

- We've got a piece for you.

- Miki! Show him.

- OK.

Listen...

It's an accurate gun,

it's just that parts are worn out.

We've got the city centre.

But we failed to take

the railway station and the bridges.

The boys are still fighting.

And the Russians?

No idea.

- Goral, come!

- At least we've got the warehouse.

That's almost with no losses.

Go get some sleep.

Here.

- We're running out of wine.

- Poor guy...

Where was he from anyway?

That was Cobra's brother.

No way. His brother?

I'd break down.

Why aren't you singing?

- Why don't you have a drink!

- I'll go get something.

- I'll go with you.

- Easy, I'll go.

No, you keep playing.

- Where to?

- Just look around.

- Bottles may be anywhere.

- Shall we?

- Thank you.

- Thanks.

So where are we going?

Why don't we split up.

I'll go here, you go there.

Gentlemen, could you watch

the food for a while, please?

- No problem.

- Thank you.

- Now you deal five cards.

- Play!

Why did the French erect

the Eiffel tower?

So the Germans could

see the white flag.

Gentlemen, have you seen

the guy on duty here?

When a guy's gotta go,

he's gotta go.

But we're not going anywhere.

Easy, when they start, we run.

You want to be treated like a soldier?

- But, sir...

- Did you have a replacement on duty?

Then why was nobody watching it?

I thought you were grown up.
