0:01:44 > 0:01:47Morning! Morning!
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Another drink before lunch, Skelton?
0:01:49 > 0:01:57Major, anything to improve Anglo-American relations. I spent most of my life in India.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05WOMAN SINGS ROMANTIC FRENCH SONG
0:02:17 > 0:02:20BELL CHIMES
0:02:38 > 0:02:42Why did you do that? I was enjoying it.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- It bores me.- You were singing it.
0:02:47 > 0:02:52- It's sentimental.- Why not be sentimental on our honeymoon?
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Oh, yes, of course, our honeymoon.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Happy?
0:03:00 > 0:03:02You ought to know.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07Come on. I'll buy you champagne for lunch.
0:03:11 > 0:03:16There's an article here about the Australian Aborigines.
0:03:16 > 0:03:21They catch their fish with some kind of wooden harpoon.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24There's nothing wrong with my method.
0:03:24 > 0:03:29YOU disturbed the fish. This has got to stop.
0:03:29 > 0:03:35Day after day, as soon as I am about to catch a fish, you come by, paddling!
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Hold it!
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Thank you. That was perfect.
0:03:43 > 0:03:51- We're only too glad. Now perhaps you'd take one of me by myself? - Sorry, that was my last film.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54< Mr Vadassy, will you be long?
0:03:56 > 0:04:04- I'm sorry, I couldn't miss those two. It's my last film.- Yesterday, it was lizards for your last film.
0:04:04 > 0:04:09- There must be something wrong with me.- No, you're not such a good model.
0:04:09 > 0:04:16- You can't stand still. - Because my hair gets in my eyes. - Why do you want hair?- It's usual.
0:04:16 > 0:04:22- I'm terribly sorry.- Forget it. - Let's go fishing this afternoon. - I'd love that.
0:04:22 > 0:04:30- Good. I must run to the village. I left my negatives to be developed. - You'll miss lunch.- I'll hurry.
0:04:50 > 0:04:57- Albert!- Is anything wrong, madame? - How many times have I told you to decant one bottle at a time?
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Now, don't let it happen again!
0:05:00 > 0:05:05- ..Good morning.- Madame.- I'm glad my guests are punctual for their meal.
0:05:05 > 0:05:11- You set a good example. Always first to arrive.- And last to leave.
0:05:11 > 0:05:16..Morning, Major. Having fun? Rather, dear lady.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20- Morning.- ..Madame. What have you been doing, M Duclos?
0:05:20 > 0:05:25I've had a discussion on marine biology with our fisherman friend.
0:05:25 > 0:05:32He has a theory that the whale is not a fish but a mammal. A mammal, I ask you!
0:05:32 > 0:05:35You have so many interests, M Duclos.
0:05:35 > 0:05:42- Fools talk and wise men listen, eh, M Vogel? M Duclos needs a gag. - Ssh! Andre, he will hear you.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45I don't care if he does. ..Albert!
0:05:45 > 0:05:50- Take this wine away. Champagne and ice, quickly.- Champagne?
0:05:50 > 0:05:56- You heard. ..Cru '28, isn't it?- Yes. - ..Bring a bottle at once. - Certainly, madame.
0:05:56 > 0:06:01- Ah, Miss...? Have you been fishing? - No, I'm going later with Mr Vadassy.
0:06:01 > 0:06:06- Monsieur, pleasant morning?- Yes, the Major and I discussed politics.
0:06:06 > 0:06:13Politics? Yes, of course we have. I still don't understand what a republican is.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Don't bother, Major, no-one does.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19The same applies to the porpoise.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Everyone knows a porpoise is a fish.
0:06:21 > 0:06:26No, they come inshore to breed. And stay at the best hotels(!)
0:06:26 > 0:06:33I'm serious. In subtropical waters, the shallows are full of them. Impossible!
0:06:33 > 0:06:37It's a biological fact. I don't believe in facts.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41Mankind is nature's supreme achievement.
0:06:41 > 0:06:49What have you done with your young man, Miss Skelton? Mr Vadassy? He's not MY young man.
0:06:49 > 0:06:55I never set eyes on him till yesterday. My wife is a great matchmaker!
0:06:55 > 0:07:01He has betrayed me for a lizard. Her hair doesn't get in her eyes. < Lizard?
0:07:01 > 0:07:09He spent yesterday afternoon taking her portrait. He's gone for the photographs, so he's late for lunch.
0:07:09 > 0:07:15At the Hotel Reserve, one is never late for lunch. I will speak to Mr Vadassy.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Anybody in?
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Anybody in?
0:07:44 > 0:07:50- Yes, monsieur?- That roll of film I brought in, can I have it at once?
0:07:50 > 0:07:57- It's not ready yet.- Not ready? But you said you'd have it this morning. It shouldn't take all that time.
0:07:57 > 0:08:03- When will it be ready? - It's not ready yet. - You haven't damaged the negative?
0:08:03 > 0:08:09- I wouldn't like anything to happen to it.- Oh, no, monsieur.
0:08:09 > 0:08:16- If you'd be good enough to give me your name and address, I'll send the boy with it.- No, I'll call again.
0:08:16 > 0:08:23- It's no trouble. Your name and address, please. - Peter Vadassy. Hotel Reserve.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Peter...Vadassy...
0:08:26 > 0:08:33Hotel...Reserve... It shall be sent round as soon as it's ready.
0:08:34 > 0:08:40- Monsieur Vadassy?- Yes. - I must ask you to accompany me to the police station.- What for?
0:08:40 > 0:08:47- A slight passport formality. - My passport is at the hotel. All my papers are in order.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53- I don't understand.- You will.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04DRUNKEN MUMBLING
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Vadassy.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17- Peter Vadassy?- Yes.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22- Your identity card? - I left it at the hotel.- Age?- 32.
0:09:22 > 0:09:30- Profession?- Medical student. - Scarcely a profession.- I teach languages.- You have a permit?- Yes.
0:09:30 > 0:09:37- Give it to me.- If it were necessary to have a permit to bathe, I might have it on me(!)- Don't be flippant!
0:09:37 > 0:09:40KNOCK ON DOOR Come in!
0:10:03 > 0:10:09- You're German.- No, Austrian. - Austrian?- I don't carry my passport everywhere either.
0:10:09 > 0:10:14We have your passport here. And all your other papers.
0:10:14 > 0:10:20Have you any other professions besides the two you mentioned? Or other nationalities?
0:10:20 > 0:10:28This is absurd. My father was Austrian. My mother was French. I left Austria before Hitler came in.
0:10:28 > 0:10:35In another two days, I shall become a French citizen. I passed my final medical examination three weeks ago.
0:10:35 > 0:10:42- Back in Paris, I shall be assistant house surgeon at my hospital. - And your other activities?
0:10:42 > 0:10:47I was only teaching to pay my way through medical school.
0:10:47 > 0:10:52It's always been my ambition to be a surgeon and a Frenchman.
0:10:52 > 0:10:59- Teaching languages was my only means.- Your sentiments do you the greatest credit.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Thank you. ..Now, please, may I go?
0:11:02 > 0:11:08- You are a photographer?- It's my hobby.- How many cameras do you have?
0:11:08 > 0:11:13- One. I can't see why...- You're here to answer questions, not to ask them!
0:11:21 > 0:11:23You say you have one camera.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29- What make is it?- Contax.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37That IS my camera.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47Were these photographs taken by that camera?
0:11:47 > 0:11:53Yes, those are mine. I took those yesterday afternoon. The light was good.
0:12:03 > 0:12:09- Contax is an expensive make. How much did you pay for it?- 5,000 francs.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13A lot of money for a teacher of languages.
0:12:13 > 0:12:20- Photography is an expensive hobby. - I saved to buy that camera, just as I saved for this holiday.
0:12:20 > 0:12:25- It's the first one I've had in five years.- Calm down.- I have my rights.
0:12:25 > 0:12:32Your rights as what? A stateless citizen? A doctor without a practice? A teacher of languages?
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Perhaps as an amateur photographer?
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Why pretend any longer, Vadassy?
0:12:38 > 0:12:44- I've got nothing to pretend about. - You took these photographs? - I've said so.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Good. We will examine them together.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55JUDGE: On the desk, here.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Take a look.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16Lizards...lizards...
0:13:16 > 0:13:19lizards...nothing but lizards.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Lizards...liz...
0:13:24 > 0:13:28Come on, Vadassy, don't trouble to look surprised.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Curious lizards, eh, Vadassy?
0:13:34 > 0:13:42- I don't understand.- You know that is an excellent photograph of the new fortifications outside of Toulon.
0:13:42 > 0:13:47I suppose you'll say you've never been to Toulon.
0:13:47 > 0:13:55- Yes, I spent two hours in Toulon yesterday. But I left my camera in my bag at the station.- Strange.
0:13:55 > 0:14:00But I was only there a couple of hours.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04Peter Vadassy, you are charged with espionage,
0:14:04 > 0:14:11with taking photographs calculated to endanger the safety of the French Republic.
0:14:11 > 0:14:18What's the charge? Espionage. That's why the chief of naval intelligence is here.
0:14:20 > 0:14:26Exactly. That's the way it goes. That's the way it goes, my friend.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Sit down.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Cigarette?
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Thank you.
0:14:50 > 0:14:57- Why did you admit taking those photographs?- I took all except the first ten.- How do you explain that?
0:14:57 > 0:15:02- The spool must've been changed.- By whom?- I haven't the faintest idea.
0:15:02 > 0:15:08My camera never left my suitcase until I photographed the lizards.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13- Do you recognise this?- Of course. - Examine it closely.
0:15:20 > 0:15:28- Do you find anything curious about it?- It's exactly as I left it at the hotel.
0:15:28 > 0:15:33Then why does your insurance policy give the the serial number as F2372?
0:15:35 > 0:15:39But this isn't MY camera! This is Z44738.
0:15:39 > 0:15:44Why were my photographs on that negative?
0:15:44 > 0:15:52The Toulon exposures were made before you photographed your stupid lizards. The cameras were changed.
0:15:52 > 0:15:59- Then why do you keep me here?- You were in possession of photographs calculated to endanger France.
0:15:59 > 0:16:07You face a long term of imprisonment, deportation and your naturalisation papers will not be granted.
0:16:07 > 0:16:14- France will lose an undistinguished citizen and the Third Reich will gain one.- This is grossly unjust.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17- You know I am innocent.- Possibly.
0:16:17 > 0:16:23Vadassy, there are ten guests at the hotel and Madame Koche.
0:16:23 > 0:16:28The guilty one has your camera - a Contax identical to that.
0:16:28 > 0:16:33It is impossible for us to arrest the entire hotel and search everyone.
0:16:33 > 0:16:40- Inquiries must be made by someone whose presence would arouse no suspicion.- I see what you mean.
0:16:40 > 0:16:46Yes. It's a pity for both of us that you're the only person who can help.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50- But, M...- Beghin, is the name. Michel Beghin.
0:16:50 > 0:16:59- But I've got to return on Saturday to Paris.- You will remain at the hotel till you're permitted to leave.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02If you try to leave, you'll be re-arrested,
0:17:02 > 0:17:06you'll be deported straightaway to Vienna
0:17:06 > 0:17:11and your dossier will be handed to the police there.
0:17:16 > 0:17:24Get this into your head - the quicker you find out who took those photographs, the better for you.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Don't try any tricks. Don't write any letters.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31If you do, imprisonment...
0:17:31 > 0:17:34deportation and the Gestapo.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Here is a list I made out for you.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Your fellow guests. Take it!
0:18:07 > 0:18:15- M Vadassy, you are back! Nothing serious, I hope. The police were here before lunch.- Nothing serious.
0:18:15 > 0:18:20Just a ridiculous mistake about my passport. However, they apologised.
0:18:20 > 0:18:25I apologise to you for having missed lunch. You know what the police are.
0:18:25 > 0:18:33- They took a long time to clear up such a small matter.- There was a delay in getting through to Paris.
0:18:33 > 0:18:39I thought the police had priority, but you can never trust the telephone.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- Anyway, I'm back now. That's the main thing.- Yes.
0:18:43 > 0:18:51- M Vadassy, when are you leaving? - We had agreed Saturday morning. - Oh, yes, the day after tomorrow.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55The weather's so splendid, I might stay on a day or two.
0:18:55 > 0:19:01- Oh, I'm afraid...- If the police have no objection and if you have a room.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04I'll see what can be arranged.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Hello. Remember me?
0:19:14 > 0:19:21- Oh, yes, of course. - The girl by the boat you photographed this morning.- Yes.
0:19:21 > 0:19:26Where have you been all afternoon? A date with a lizard, I suppose.
0:19:26 > 0:19:31- You did have a date with me to go fishing.- I'm sorry.- Aren't you well?
0:19:31 > 0:19:36I've got a headache. A touch of the sun. I think I'll go and lie down.
0:19:36 > 0:19:44- Is there anything I can do?- No. - Shall we see you for dinner?- Yes. I'll play you billiards afterwards.
0:19:44 > 0:19:49- I'd love to.- I'll look forward to it. Now I'll go to my room.
0:20:16 > 0:20:22'The quicker you find out who took those photographs, the better for you.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26'Don't try any tricks and don't write any letters.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30'If you do, imprisonment, deportation, the Gestapo.'
0:22:16 > 0:22:22He misses his lunch, now he misses his dinner. I cannot understand it.
0:22:22 > 0:22:29Everybody isn't like you, Walter. ..In Sweden last year, he never stopped eating!
0:22:29 > 0:22:33I didn't want to die of cold and starvation.
0:22:33 > 0:22:40They have very interesting fish in northern waters. I can well imagine it.
0:22:40 > 0:22:45Harpooning whales all day! And fighting Eskimos for FISH blubber.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49For the last time, a whale is NOT a fish.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Ladies and gentlemen, I appeal to...
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Vadassy, good evening.
0:22:55 > 0:23:00- I beg your pardon, madame. I'm afraid I'm late.- Not at all.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04Hello, there. So, there you are!
0:23:04 > 0:23:10- Good evening.- Good evening. Where have you been all day, monsieur? We missed you.
0:23:11 > 0:23:17I went down to the village and... it was such a glorious day, I forgot the time.
0:23:17 > 0:23:23- I walked along the coast, over the cliffs.- Which way did you go?
0:23:23 > 0:23:27Not very far. Well, quite a long way. No, thank you, nothing to eat.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31You're not eating anything, M Vadassy?
0:23:31 > 0:23:38- No, I've got a headache. A touch of the sun.- A touch of the sun? You must be careful.
0:23:38 > 0:23:45- How about a drink, Vadassy? ..Albert, a glass for M Vadassy. - No, thanks. I'm perfectly all right.
0:23:45 > 0:23:53- I never drink champagne.- Nonsense! You look half-dead. ..Doesn't he, my pet?- M Vadassy looks charming.
0:23:53 > 0:23:58- But champagne is good for everyone. - Take it over, Albert.
0:23:58 > 0:24:03I stick always to beer. I can only drink it with sugar.
0:24:03 > 0:24:10Vadassy, be a man. ..Odette, drink up. We've only got one honeymoon. Vadassy, you are not drinking
0:24:10 > 0:24:13I'd rather not, if you don't mind.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15..Albert.
0:24:17 > 0:24:24- Perhaps Herr Schimler would like my glass.- Herr Schimler? - Yes. Take it over to him.
0:24:24 > 0:24:29- Sir, there is no Herr Schimler here. - He's sitting over there.
0:24:31 > 0:24:36- Oh, you mean M Heinberger? - Heinberger?- Yes. It's M Heinberger.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41I'm sorry. I'm...a bit confused.
0:24:41 > 0:24:46- Is your head really bad?- I don't think so. I'm perfectly all right.
0:24:46 > 0:24:51- Are you sure? - Perhaps I do feel a bit...queer.
0:25:02 > 0:25:07- Every minute is important.- I'll try again in the morning, Emil.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09But I'm afraid it's useless.
0:25:09 > 0:25:14You must keep trying for me. I must know what has happened.
0:25:14 > 0:25:21- I must know what I have to do. - There's nothing you can do, Emil. Haven't we done all we can?
0:25:21 > 0:25:27Month after month of waiting and planning, and now this has to happen.
0:25:27 > 0:25:35- Darling.- There is so little time. - Look, I promise I'll try again in the morning.- You must.- Tomorrow.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37There's nothing we can do tonight.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40DOG WHINES
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- What was that?- Wait. I'll see.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50DOG BARKS
0:25:53 > 0:25:57M Vadassy, is there anything wrong?
0:25:57 > 0:26:01Nothing, madame. I couldn't sleep. I came to look for a book.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06I'm going back to my room. I'm sorry I disturbed you.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- Good night.- Good night.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06There we are, monsieur. Coffee. Milk.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08Butter.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Sugar.
0:27:10 > 0:27:14Croissant. Fresh this morning.
0:27:18 > 0:27:23Good morning, Monsieur Vadassy. You are down early.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27- Do you feel better today? - Yes, thank you.- Oh, good.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- Have you been here before?- No, never.
0:27:30 > 0:27:36- A medical student doesn't have much spare time. - My son-in-law is a doctor in Zurich.
0:27:36 > 0:27:42- Show him the photographs, Liebchen. ..You're interested, M Vadassy?- Yes.
0:27:42 > 0:27:49This is my daughter. And this is our grandson. You wouldn't believe I was a grandmother, would you?
0:27:49 > 0:27:56He's such a dear, little boy. That's Ernst, the doctor. And this is their house.
0:27:56 > 0:28:03- With the little dog. You know Switzerland? - No. Do you always take photographs?
0:28:03 > 0:28:10- Yes, I have an album for each holiday.- Were these taken with a half-plate camera?- An Excelsior.
0:28:10 > 0:28:17- Have you any other cameras? - Oh, yes. I have always been fond of photography.
0:28:17 > 0:28:23- Have you got them with you?- No, they're in Zurich. You must visit us. - Yes, I'd like to.
0:28:23 > 0:28:28What a glorious morning. What a deuce of an appetite I've got!
0:28:28 > 0:28:32What I wouldn't give for an English breakfast!
0:28:32 > 0:28:38I wonder if the chef could make porridge? Vadassy, how are you?
0:28:38 > 0:28:42- I'm all right, thank you. - Had your breakfast already?
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Excuse me.
0:29:17 > 0:29:21- Are you following me? - Unfortunately, yes.
0:29:21 > 0:29:26I find it very fatiguing. And this suit is very hot.
0:29:26 > 0:29:34- Why do you wear it? Have you been to a funeral?- Four months ago, my mother. She had stones.- Sit down.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38Thank you. I would like to have a grenadine.
0:29:38 > 0:29:44- Waiter, grenadine for this gentleman.- And for you? - Nothing, thank you.- Nothing?
0:29:47 > 0:29:55I'm going to telephone M Beghin from that box. Stay here and enjoy your drink. He told me to telephone him.
0:29:55 > 0:30:02- But it is my duty to come too. - But there isn't room for two in a telephone box.
0:30:02 > 0:30:08But you cannot bribe the honour of a French policeman with a glass of grenadine.
0:30:08 > 0:30:14All right, move your chair that way and you'll be able to watch me.
0:30:27 > 0:30:30TELEPHONE RINGS
0:30:33 > 0:30:38- Yes?- Peter Vadassy. - Any news about the camera?
0:30:38 > 0:30:43- Not yet.- Then why are you bothering me?- I've discovered something.- What?
0:30:43 > 0:30:47The German, Emil Schimler, is calling himself Paul Heinberger.
0:30:47 > 0:30:53I heard him talking to Madame Koche last night. I think he's the spy.
0:30:53 > 0:30:57- Are you insane? - Well, I thought it might be a clue.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00I didn't ask you to play detective.
0:31:00 > 0:31:06I asked you to find out which of the guests had cameras. Find out!
0:31:20 > 0:31:24Miss Skelton, come and have a look at this.
0:31:24 > 0:31:28Over there. What's the matter? It's Mr Asticot.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31He looks as though he's drowning.
0:31:31 > 0:31:37Give me those. Who's drowning? Take my binoculars.
0:31:37 > 0:31:42He's been caught by an octopus. It must be a shark.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45Poor chap! Give me those. No!
0:31:45 > 0:31:49It is a gigantic shark. Oh, I say!
0:31:49 > 0:31:54What's going on? Asticot. All is over. What happened?
0:31:54 > 0:32:00Is he drowning? Eaten by a shark. No, it's not a shark!
0:32:00 > 0:32:04He's made a wonderful catch. He's lost it.
0:32:04 > 0:32:09No, he hasn't. It's dragging him under.
0:32:09 > 0:32:12He's got it! It's a giant.
0:32:12 > 0:32:19- Have I missed something? - I should think you have. Tremendous sport. Over there.
0:32:26 > 0:32:29- That is a fish, isn't it?!- Isn't it?
0:32:31 > 0:32:37- We ought to take a photograph. - I'll get my camera. And I'll get my Excelsior.
0:32:37 > 0:32:42- Photograph - what for?- If you'd seen it, you wouldn't ask.
0:32:42 > 0:32:51- I can't see anything remarkable about catching a fish.- Oh, Andre, it'd be fun to have a picture.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53All right.
0:32:56 > 0:33:00Splendid, my friend. An 80-pounder, by Jove!
0:33:00 > 0:33:04Do you think I should hold the fish?
0:33:04 > 0:33:11No, it's perfect as it is. ..Where's your camera, Mr Vadassy? You're missing the photograph of the season.
0:33:11 > 0:33:16- I forgot to get a new roll of film. Just my luck.- Today of all days!
0:33:16 > 0:33:24Mr Vadassy, would you please help me? There must be something wrong here. If you would straighten it...
0:33:25 > 0:33:28There you are. How's that?
0:33:28 > 0:33:34- I still can't see a thing. - Have you dropped your mirror? - Have I dropped...?!
0:33:36 > 0:33:39At last!
0:33:39 > 0:33:41We're ready now. Hold it.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44PHWRRT!
0:33:44 > 0:33:48I'm so sorry. Perhaps there's air in it.
0:33:48 > 0:33:53M Asticot, just once more. PHWRRT!
0:33:53 > 0:33:58Walter, do it without the bulb. Once more? No, Walter!
0:34:01 > 0:34:04Bravo! Jolly good show. >
0:34:08 > 0:34:14Now, put this round here. I'm so glad you took my advice about the harpoon.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17I didn't. But you weren't paddling.
0:34:17 > 0:34:24How are we going to cook it? This is going to be stuffed! I have a room at home full of them.
0:36:42 > 0:36:46MUFFLED CHATTER
0:37:13 > 0:37:18In the old days, one just wore ordinary riding... What?!
0:37:22 > 0:37:24Who locked me in the writing room?
0:37:24 > 0:37:29- Are you perfectly sure of that?- Yes! - My dear fellow, take it easy...
0:37:29 > 0:37:32Old Buffy Davenport, similar case.
0:37:32 > 0:37:38Found him crawling round the compound one morning on his hands and knees, raving mad.
0:37:38 > 0:37:45- I know you all think I'm mad. - No, just take it easy. - But I was locked in.
0:37:45 > 0:37:50- Well, it's a bit unlikely. - My dear Vadassy.
0:37:55 > 0:38:01- It's quite a natural mistake to make. - Perhaps you locked yourself in.
0:38:01 > 0:38:07- Difficult to do with the key on this side of the door, eh, M Duclos? - Point taken.
0:38:07 > 0:38:14This calls for a snifter. One doesn't catch an 80-pounder every day. Swell idea!
0:38:14 > 0:38:21You need a drink, too. What will you have, my friend? Brandy or champagne or what?
0:38:21 > 0:38:27- Nothing, thank you. - Nonsense! Come up to my room. Let Odette fix you a cocktail.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30No, thank you!
0:38:30 > 0:38:36- Thank you very much, not now. - I'm sorry. Cheer up, my friend. You'll soon feel better.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53Where were you when it happened?
0:38:53 > 0:38:58- What happened? What do you mean? - You know what I mean.
0:38:58 > 0:39:05- I was locked in the writing room. - Were you? I was sitting over here. - Where have you just come from?
0:39:05 > 0:39:10- May I ask the reason for this interrogation?- You hypocrite!
0:39:10 > 0:39:17- Sir, I have not the faintest idea what you're talking about.- You sit here smiling, and all the time...
0:39:17 > 0:39:22I'm afraid, I'm rather upset. Forgive me.
0:39:24 > 0:39:26Don't go!
0:39:28 > 0:39:31Do YOU think I'm mad?
0:39:31 > 0:39:34- Not at all.- THEY all think I am.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37They think? Let them think!
0:39:37 > 0:39:41I'm sure you're as sane as I am.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Now, pull yourself together.
0:39:44 > 0:39:50What do you say to a game of Russian billiards? It will calm your nerves.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57I'm no good at this game.
0:39:57 > 0:40:02- There's only one thing I am good at. - That is?
0:40:02 > 0:40:04- Photography.- Fascinating hobby.
0:40:04 > 0:40:11- Have you a camera? - Will you please not speak while I make this shot? It is difficult.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13Have I a camera?
0:40:13 > 0:40:19No, I have no camera. In fact, I can't remember when I had one in my hands.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28Excellent.
0:40:28 > 0:40:33- M Heinberger has kindly been giving me lessons.- He's a very apt pupil.
0:40:33 > 0:40:41We had some difficulties at first, but now we understand one another perfectly, don't we, Vadassy?
0:40:41 > 0:40:46- You will always fail if you jab it. - I wasn't thinking.- A fatal mistake.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49Keep your eye on the ball.
0:40:49 > 0:40:53Decide what to do. Concentrate, then do it.
0:40:53 > 0:41:00- Don't be in too great a hurry or you will fail. Your turn.- M Vadassy is a novice. One needs experience.
0:41:00 > 0:41:05Yes, one must relax the muscles and take it easy. You're trying too hard.
0:41:06 > 0:41:12- Oh!- You see? You're back where you started.- Now you must begin again.
0:41:12 > 0:41:16So, there you are! What about that swim?
0:41:16 > 0:41:23- Are you winning a fortune off Mr Heinberger?- No, Mr Heinberger's winning. ..Excuse me.
0:41:23 > 0:41:28- I've been wasting your time.- Not at all.- Perhaps we'll play again later.
0:41:28 > 0:41:34- ..I'll go and change.- How long will you be?- Five minutes.- Make it three.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37All right.
0:41:42 > 0:41:47- A charming girl.- Yes, and the man? - I don't know.- Be careful, Emil.
0:41:47 > 0:41:52- I know what I am doing.- Yes, but sometimes I'm afraid.- Don't worry.
0:41:52 > 0:41:57- I can look after myself. And him, too, if necessary.- Take care, Emil.
0:42:12 > 0:42:14Come along, Peter! Time's up.
0:42:46 > 0:42:48Don't move. I'll get a doctor.
0:42:48 > 0:42:54- You mustn't do that.- Why on earth not?- Nobody must know about this.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58Don't get excited. What's been going on here?
0:42:58 > 0:43:02- I don't exactly remember. - Take it easy.
0:43:02 > 0:43:07- I must have fainted. - You don't have fits, do you?
0:43:07 > 0:43:12- No.- From the look of the room, you must've been thrashing round.
0:43:12 > 0:43:17- What really did happen?- Nothing. It's my sunstroke. I must have fainted.
0:43:17 > 0:43:25First, you chewed up everything except the carpet. Then you fainted. You were all right when I left you.
0:43:25 > 0:43:30I know. It sounds a ridiculous explanation. It IS ridiculous.
0:43:30 > 0:43:37- Why not come clean? - I can't. Not now, at any rate. You must think I'm completely mad.
0:43:37 > 0:43:42A little. I can't understand why you've got to be so mysterious.
0:43:42 > 0:43:49- Mary, I'd like to take you into my confidence but...I simply can't. - OK, it's your affair.
0:43:49 > 0:43:55- There's no-one I'd rather tell if I possibly could, but... - But you can't.
0:43:55 > 0:44:03- The beautiful Romanian spy has the papers and the wicked agent has stolen the secret photographs.- Yes.
0:44:03 > 0:44:08- Mary, keep this to yourself. I don't want anyone to know.- All right.
0:44:08 > 0:44:12- Thank you.- Whatever you do, keep out of the sun.
0:44:23 > 0:44:27TELEPHONE RINGS
0:44:30 > 0:44:35- Hello?- Peter Vadassy.- Oh, Vadassy. Yes? Well, what is it? What is it?
0:44:35 > 0:44:42- I was knocked out in my room just now.- Did you identify the man? - No, he attacked me from behind.
0:44:42 > 0:44:49- Your room was searched?- Yes. Two rolls of film are missing. - Anything else?
0:44:49 > 0:44:51No, nothing.
0:44:53 > 0:44:56Hello? Hello? Are you still there?
0:44:56 > 0:44:58Don't fuss, but listen carefully.
0:44:58 > 0:45:06Go back and tell Madame Koche that your suitcase was forced open and that several things have been stolen.
0:45:06 > 0:45:13A silver cigarette case, a diamond pin, a gold watch chain and the two rolls of film.
0:45:13 > 0:45:20Make a scene. I want them all at the hotel to know about it. But do NOT ask for the police.
0:45:20 > 0:45:23- Do you understand?- I can't do that.
0:45:23 > 0:45:25Don't argue, but do as you're told.
0:45:25 > 0:45:31- Was your suitcase forced?- No. - Then force it yourself before you tell Madame Koche.
0:45:31 > 0:45:37- Is that clear?- Yes, but I have no cigarette case or a diamond pin.
0:45:37 > 0:45:41Of course not. They've been stolen! Get on with it!
0:46:05 > 0:46:12Why did he come here to telephone? There's a telephone in the hotel. And who's the guy with him?
0:46:12 > 0:46:15His keeper(!) Another drink? Swell idea.
0:46:15 > 0:46:19Waiter! Vermouth cassis and a whisky.
0:46:21 > 0:46:24M Duclos!
0:46:27 > 0:46:29M Duclos!
0:46:31 > 0:46:33M Duclos!
0:46:33 > 0:46:37I want to talk to you. It's very important.
0:46:53 > 0:47:00M Duclos, you're a man of the world. Can you give me advice on a matter of some delicacy?
0:47:00 > 0:47:07- I am at your disposal. I have experience of this.- But how...?- I am a man of the world. She's charming.
0:47:07 > 0:47:14- What are you talking about? - Miss Skelton.- It's nothing to do with her. I've been robbed.
0:47:14 > 0:47:21- A burglary?!- My suitcase has been forced and my valuables taken.- Who could it be? The major? Possibly.
0:47:21 > 0:47:25Roux? Heinberger? Maybe someone from the village.
0:47:25 > 0:47:33- You'll help me?- We must inform the police.- That would cause a scandal. - Yes.- We want to keep it dark.
0:47:33 > 0:47:37- Naturally.- But a few discreet enquiries.- I understand perfectly.
0:47:37 > 0:47:46- You can rely on me. I'll get to the bottom of this for you. You may trust me implicitly.- I do, M Duclos. I do.
0:48:22 > 0:48:24M Duclos is coming.
0:48:24 > 0:48:29Come here. A most terrible thing has happened.
0:48:29 > 0:48:33M Vadassy has been robbed of valuable jewels.
0:48:33 > 0:48:40Was there violence? What are we going to do? Wait. Meantime, not a word.
0:48:40 > 0:48:44My watch! We must go back to the hotel.
0:48:46 > 0:48:51Have you heard the news? There's been a burglary in the hotel.
0:48:51 > 0:48:56Burglars? M Vadassy has had everything stolen.
0:48:56 > 0:49:01His diamond pin. His pearl studs. And the watch presented to his father.
0:49:01 > 0:49:03Gold? Yes.
0:49:03 > 0:49:07I'm amazed Vadassy had such valuables.
0:49:07 > 0:49:12I understand on the highest authority he's travelling incognito.
0:49:12 > 0:49:18Good Lord! > Yes. So the utmost secrecy must be observed.
0:49:18 > 0:49:21Not a word of this must leak out.
0:49:33 > 0:49:38Pardon my intrusion. But there's a gang of crooks at large in the hotel.
0:49:38 > 0:49:43They've stolen important papers from M Vadassy. Secret documents.
0:49:43 > 0:49:47It may lead to international complications.
0:49:55 > 0:50:02- What's going on, Peter? When I left you, you were completely down. What's so funny?- Isn't Duclos marvellous?
0:50:02 > 0:50:11- What's all this about you travelling incognito?- Did he really say that? - I don't understand. Explain.
0:50:11 > 0:50:18- Mary, I know this seems insane, but I think everything's going to be all right.- I'll take your word for it.
0:50:18 > 0:50:23- Don't be angry, Mary.- I'm not angry. - I'll explain soon, I promise.
0:50:23 > 0:50:25He's a genius.
0:50:28 > 0:50:33Remember - I can't impress upon you enough the importance of secrecy.
0:50:33 > 0:50:39The peace of the world may depend on it. I may be summoned to Geneva myself.
0:50:39 > 0:50:44(I've already heard from the Minister of the Interior...)
0:50:44 > 0:50:48HE MOUTHS
0:50:55 > 0:51:02- Excuse me, monsieur.- Yes, Albert? - Madame would be grateful if you'd come to her office.
0:51:02 > 0:51:07- What's the matter now? - I'll be back in a minute.
0:51:14 > 0:51:16Come in!
0:51:18 > 0:51:20M Vadassy.
0:51:20 > 0:51:22Come in, M Vadassy.
0:51:28 > 0:51:30Sit down, monsieur.
0:51:41 > 0:51:45I hope you have some satisfactory news for me.
0:51:45 > 0:51:50No, monsieur. None of the staff could throw any light on the affair.
0:51:50 > 0:51:58Most of them have been with me for years and I'm satisfied they're telling me the truth. ..You may go.
0:52:04 > 0:52:09This is really a case for the police.
0:52:09 > 0:52:15- Do you think that's altogether advisable?- I have no intention of calling them.
0:52:15 > 0:52:22I don't want any more scandal. I asked you to say nothing until I had gone into the matter.
0:52:22 > 0:52:29- You lost no time in doing precisely the opposite.- I admit that I did discuss the matter with M Duclos.
0:52:29 > 0:52:36M Duclos! M Vadassy, I have now been in the hotel business for a number of years.
0:52:36 > 0:52:44- I've met gentlemen of your kind before. You broke open the case yourself.- But this is absurd!
0:52:44 > 0:52:50- I assure you, madame... - Please, monsieur, there is nothing you can say.
0:52:50 > 0:52:56You will leave my hotel tomorrow. I do not wish the other guests to know why.
0:52:56 > 0:53:00You will find some plausible excuse. Here's your bill.
0:53:02 > 0:53:06I cannot say that I hope to see you again at the Hotel Reserve.
0:54:00 > 0:54:03KNOCKS GENTLY ON DOOR
0:55:45 > 0:55:49I'm afraid you'll find nothing of value here.
0:55:49 > 0:55:51- I...- Spare me your excuses.
0:55:53 > 0:55:58Now, would you prefer to see Madame Koche here? Or in her office?
0:55:58 > 0:56:04- I don't want to see her. I've taken nothing.- There is nothing to take.
0:56:04 > 0:56:09Some valuables were stolen from MY suitcase. I suspected you.
0:56:09 > 0:56:16I happen to have discussed your story with Madame Koche. She tells me you're leaving.
0:56:16 > 0:56:21- Under protest.- This is part of your protest?- Put it that way if you like.
0:56:21 > 0:56:26However, I see that you are not the thief. I can only apologise.
0:56:26 > 0:56:33That will not do. It would be as well that you stayed here until we discuss this with Madame Koche.
0:56:33 > 0:56:36You can't charge me with anything.
0:56:36 > 0:56:43My dear Vadassy, you are already known to the police. You came here with the intention of stealing.
0:56:43 > 0:56:50- You can explain yourself to the police.- Under what name are you going to lodge your complaint?
0:56:50 > 0:56:59- Herr Heinberger? Emil Schimler of Berlin? Or Paul Czissar of Prague? - So, you're NOT a hotel sneak thief!
0:56:59 > 0:57:04- I told you I wasn't a thief. - No, you're a filthy, little spy!
0:57:04 > 0:57:07KNOCK ON DOOR
0:57:10 > 0:57:15Yes? You rang, monsieur? It was a mistake.
0:57:15 > 0:57:21That was a fortunate interruption for you, my friend. I was going to kill you.
0:57:21 > 0:57:28- Perhaps we can talk sense. I suppose you've never heard of a man called Beghin?- No.
0:57:28 > 0:57:33You soon will. He's attached to naval intelligence at Toulon.
0:57:33 > 0:57:40- Doesn't that suggest anything to you?- I have a suspicion, Vadassy, that we're talking at cross purposes.
0:57:40 > 0:57:45- Who are you? What do you want? - I want a piece of information.
0:57:45 > 0:57:50- What did you do with that camera?- I don't know what you're talking about.
0:57:50 > 0:57:54- Then I shall hand you over for interrogation.- You fool!
0:57:55 > 0:58:00My reasons for using a different name are nothing whatever to do with you.
0:58:00 > 0:58:05The police know who I am and so does Madame Koche.
0:58:05 > 0:58:12- You are trying to blackmail me into giving information I don't possess. Am I right?- More or less.
0:58:12 > 0:58:19You've seen the passports. I'll be frank with you. I daren't let this information get any further.
0:58:19 > 0:58:22That's your affair.
0:58:30 > 0:58:37Vadassy, in 1933, I was editor of the Social Democrat newspaper in Berlin.
0:58:37 > 0:58:41That year, German social democracy died a bitter death.
0:58:41 > 0:58:46I was arrested by the Nazis and sent to a concentration camp.
0:58:46 > 0:58:49They're not very pleasant places.
0:58:49 > 0:58:52I spent two years in that camp.
0:58:52 > 0:58:58I finally got my release on the condition that I resigned my German citizenship.
0:58:58 > 0:59:03I went to Paris to work in an anti-Nazi underground movement.
0:59:03 > 0:59:10I was to smuggle anti-Nazi propaganda between Prague and Berlin, using the false passports.
0:59:10 > 0:59:18The Gestapo found out my name. They tried to kidnap me in Switzerland and take me back to Germany.
0:59:18 > 0:59:21Surely you're safe here?
0:59:21 > 0:59:26When you are hunted, you develop an extra sense.
0:59:27 > 0:59:30I thought I had been identified.
0:59:30 > 0:59:33I thought YOU might be the man.
0:59:33 > 0:59:37I was wrong. Now, what are you going to do?
0:59:37 > 0:59:43If the police know who you are, what does it matter what name you go by?
0:59:43 > 0:59:46They have a hold on me.
0:59:46 > 0:59:50My wife and child are still in Germany.
0:59:52 > 0:59:55I can trust you, Vadassy?
0:59:55 > 0:59:57Of course you can.
0:59:59 > 1:00:01Thank you, my friend.
1:00:03 > 1:00:05What about your suspect?
1:00:07 > 1:00:11Don't worry. I'll find him.
1:01:14 > 1:01:21- Where have you been? Any news? - What did you say?- Have they called in the police yet?- No.- Why not?
1:01:21 > 1:01:29- It wasn't necessary.- Have they found the thief?- No. There was no thief.- I don't understand.
1:01:29 > 1:01:31I found my things.
1:01:42 > 1:01:47Pressure was brought to bear from high quarters. The jewels are safe?
1:01:47 > 1:01:53Oh, yes. Anybody hurt? Two gendarmes seriously wounded.
1:01:53 > 1:01:57- Who were the criminals? - I can't say now.
1:01:57 > 1:02:02- I must explain. - HILDA VOGEL: Was there a struggle? - No.
1:02:02 > 1:02:07- Will the gendarmes recover? - Now, listen, please, just a minute.
1:02:07 > 1:02:14I don't know what this is all about. There are NO criminals and none of my property's been stolen.
1:02:14 > 1:02:17I found my things under the bed.
1:02:17 > 1:02:22- They must have fallen down when my room was cleaned.- How amazing!
1:02:22 > 1:02:28- THUNDER CRASHES - How did it happen that the locks on the suitcase were broken?
1:02:28 > 1:02:35- And what about the two wounded gendarmes? I don't get it. - This is all ridiculous.
1:02:35 > 1:02:40The only person I discussed this with, in confidence, was M Duclos.
1:02:40 > 1:02:45There was no talk about wounded gendarmes or broken locks.
1:02:45 > 1:02:51- Herr Vogel, did you think the locks had been forced? - No, I never said so.
1:02:51 > 1:02:56Then, M Roux, your imagination ran away with you.
1:02:56 > 1:03:01What is all this nonsense? That old fool made up the whole story.
1:03:01 > 1:03:06Ladies, gentlemen, I am not in the habit of betraying confidences.
1:03:06 > 1:03:13- You deny that you told all of us of the theft? You said the locks were forced.- In confidence.- Rubbish!
1:03:13 > 1:03:20- ..You heard him, Odette.- I did. - Well, he admits it. In confidence, of course(!) He invented the lot.
1:03:20 > 1:03:23DUCLOS: This is unbearable.
1:03:23 > 1:03:31- I agree with you, it's unbearable that we have to put up with you. - I resent your impertinence.
1:03:31 > 1:03:37- If you were a younger man, I'd strike you. - M Duclos is an old fool.
1:03:37 > 1:03:43- I beg your pardon? - I said - M Duclos is an old fool.
1:03:43 > 1:03:49And you, sir, are a liar. Who stole the things from Vadassy's room? You!
1:03:49 > 1:03:56How else did you know the lock on his suitcase was forced? I denounce you liar and thief!
1:04:01 > 1:04:04THUNDER CRASHES
1:04:09 > 1:04:15Andre! Hasn't this gone far enough? Andre, please!
1:04:15 > 1:04:17- Come upstairs.- All right!
1:04:19 > 1:04:25I am sick to death of the lot of you! You make me sick, all of you!
1:04:25 > 1:04:28A pack of gossiping old women!
1:04:41 > 1:04:45An extraordinary exhibition! Quite insane, apparently.
1:04:45 > 1:04:52A manic depressive. I've met many similar cases. I treated him rather well.
1:04:52 > 1:04:54Don't you think you deserve a drink?
1:04:54 > 1:04:58You're most kind. Let's all go to the bar.
1:04:58 > 1:05:06Of course, the thing to do is remain calm. The power of the human eye works wonders. I've made a study...
1:05:06 > 1:05:14- So, you are just a common or garden thief.- Mary, you don't understand. I can't explain just now, but...
1:05:14 > 1:05:20You said that before. I'm not interested. It's clear now - I just made a mistake.
1:05:26 > 1:05:30ANDRE HUMS
1:05:34 > 1:05:39Can't you stop humming that tune? It's getting on my nerves.
1:05:39 > 1:05:43- It pleases me. - HE CONTINUES
1:05:43 > 1:05:47- Don't just stand there - do something!- Don't panic.
1:05:47 > 1:05:55- There's plenty of time.- If you hadn't bungled those photographs, we could have gone yesterday.
1:05:55 > 1:05:57It's no use going over that again.
1:05:57 > 1:06:04It's just our luck that he had a Contax, too. How was I to know they'd get mixed up?
1:06:04 > 1:06:09- Is the car ready?- I'm not going without those photographs.
1:06:11 > 1:06:15- Is the car ready? - SHUT UP! Of course it's ready.
1:06:20 > 1:06:22What's the matter with you?
1:06:24 > 1:06:28There's nothing the matter with me. I know what I'm doing.
1:06:28 > 1:06:33- We can't go back to Berlin empty-handed.- Then do something!
1:06:33 > 1:06:35Leave me alone!
1:06:35 > 1:06:38KNOCK ON DOOR
1:06:38 > 1:06:41HE HUMS SOFTLY
1:06:47 > 1:06:49Monsieur Vadassy.
1:06:49 > 1:06:54Excuse me for intruding. I came to see if you were all right.
1:06:54 > 1:06:57Oh, of course we are. Come in.
1:06:58 > 1:07:01- ..Good evening.- Good evening.
1:07:02 > 1:07:04Is that all you came about?
1:07:04 > 1:07:09Well, no, I came to ask if you had a roll of film you could lend me.
1:07:09 > 1:07:14Isn't that extraordinary? I was just saying to Odette that we've run out.
1:07:14 > 1:07:22Well, I wouldn't be able to use it till tomorrow anyway. This is a nice camera. You didn't use it today.
1:07:22 > 1:07:29- It was. We have no other camera.- I'm sorry the room is untidy, M Vadassy. We were getting ready for the party.
1:07:29 > 1:07:33For M Duclos's delightful party.
1:07:33 > 1:07:40- That scene in the hall was partly my fault.- Oh, not a bit. It was foolish of me to lose my temper.
1:07:40 > 1:07:45- A drink? Shall we leave Odette to dress in peace?- Why not?
1:07:45 > 1:07:51- M Vadassy, will you be staying here long?- Well, no. I'm leaving tomorrow.
1:07:51 > 1:07:56That's strange, so are we. How interesting. Well, shall we go?
1:08:08 > 1:08:13Vadassy, I like you. I'm going to put my cards on the table.
1:08:13 > 1:08:18It's only fair to tell - and I want to be fair - I hold all the trumps.
1:08:18 > 1:08:24Two days ago, by accident, I made use of a camera which was not my own.
1:08:24 > 1:08:29Now, I took my own camera back, but a very annoying thing has happened.
1:08:29 > 1:08:32Ten negatives were missing.
1:08:32 > 1:08:38For sentimental reasons, I would like to have those negatives back.
1:08:38 > 1:08:42I value them so highly, I'm willing to pay 5,000 francs for them.
1:08:42 > 1:08:48- It's a high price to pay for ten negatives. - But you're a sentimentalist.
1:08:48 > 1:08:53- Yes.- You're lucky to be able to pay so much for your pleasures.
1:08:55 > 1:09:02- What do you mean? - Sentimentality seems to be an expensive hobby, that's all.
1:09:02 > 1:09:04Vadassy, I...
1:09:06 > 1:09:12..I MUST have those ten negatives. I'm offering you 500 francs each for them.
1:09:12 > 1:09:19- Supposing they're not for sale? - Listen, my friend, I'm not playing parlour games!
1:09:19 > 1:09:25If you won't sell those negatives, there are other means of getting them.
1:09:36 > 1:09:39Herr Heinberger.
1:09:44 > 1:09:47- Good night.- Good night.
1:09:56 > 1:10:00- Give me those negatives, Vadassy. - No!
1:10:00 > 1:10:02Give them to me!
1:10:02 > 1:10:05KNOCKING ON DOOR
1:10:14 > 1:10:19Forgive me, monsieur. We are looking for M Vadassy. Peter Vadassy.
1:10:21 > 1:10:23This is M Vadassy.
1:10:25 > 1:10:29Allow me to introduce you.
1:10:29 > 1:10:33- Peter Vadassy, you're under arrest. - Why?!
1:10:33 > 1:10:39- I'm not the man you want. Let me explain! - You can explain at the station.
1:10:43 > 1:10:46What is the charge, my man?
1:10:46 > 1:10:54That is not your concern, monsieur. I am a citizen of the Republic. I have a right to know.
1:10:54 > 1:10:59The charge is one of espionage. You've had a spy amongst you.
1:10:59 > 1:11:03I knew it from the start! He couldn't fool Duclos.
1:11:03 > 1:11:08- A spy!- I knew he was fishy. I said so all along.
1:11:08 > 1:11:14Yes. The moment I saw him, I said, "There's a dangerous spy."
1:11:14 > 1:11:16He tried to bribe me this afternoon.
1:11:16 > 1:11:20HILDA: I thought he was a nice young man.
1:11:26 > 1:11:31You know what to do. As instructed. They'll make a run for it any time.
1:11:31 > 1:11:39- ..Vadassy, glad you've come.- Glad?! Is this another of your idiotic ideas? I had my hands on the man!
1:11:39 > 1:11:43- I caught your spy!- Don't fuss. I'm busy. These are yours.
1:11:43 > 1:11:48Why have I been re-arrested? They'll be halfway to Berlin by now.
1:11:48 > 1:11:52Look at those - your naturalisation papers.
1:11:52 > 1:11:55My natur...?
1:11:55 > 1:11:59- This means...- You are a citizen of the French Republic.
1:11:59 > 1:12:03Don't let it go to your head. ..Here.
1:12:28 > 1:12:31Get away from there!
1:12:32 > 1:12:34Andre!
1:12:36 > 1:12:38Get in!
1:13:06 > 1:13:08Emil?
1:13:34 > 1:13:36You will follow the inspector.
1:13:36 > 1:13:42Roux has taken the coast road to Toulon. Just as I expected. ..Come along.
1:13:42 > 1:13:46Get him an overcoat. It'll be cold in the car.
1:13:54 > 1:13:56Light me a cigarette.
1:13:57 > 1:14:02BRAKES SQUEAL Be careful, Andre!
1:14:02 > 1:14:04I know the road.
1:14:13 > 1:14:15It was a mistake to shoot him.
1:14:16 > 1:14:19Andre!
1:14:23 > 1:14:26Thank you, darling.
1:14:26 > 1:14:28Do up your coat. You'll catch cold.
1:14:44 > 1:14:46Good. You know the road.
1:14:46 > 1:14:51Roux's getting into Toulon now. That's what we've been waiting for.
1:14:51 > 1:14:58I think I told you that we're not interested in spies but in who employed them.
1:14:58 > 1:15:05We knew that Roux had taken those photographs, but we didn't know who he was taking them to.
1:15:05 > 1:15:09We want the others. There's a big spy ring in Toulon.
1:15:09 > 1:15:15- Tonight, we're going to smash it. - Why didn't you take me into your confidence?
1:15:15 > 1:15:23The less you knew, the better. I wanted Roux to leave. You were the goat that baited the tiger.
1:15:23 > 1:15:28- You've had an enjoyable game at my expense.- My profession isn't a game.
1:15:28 > 1:15:32I used you because I wanted to use you.
1:15:32 > 1:15:40When you started playing detective and had your camera stolen, I would cheerfully have seen you hang.
1:15:55 > 1:15:57What are you looking round for?
1:15:57 > 1:16:03- Police. Will they follow us to Toulon?- What for? They've got Vadassy. Idiots!
1:16:15 > 1:16:17No, thank you.
1:16:17 > 1:16:21More fool you. My wife makes an excellent pate.
1:16:58 > 1:17:00Andre!
1:17:00 > 1:17:05Don't go up there. Why not go over the border while there's still time?
1:17:05 > 1:17:10- What are you talking about? - I'm frightened. I love you, Andre.
1:17:11 > 1:17:17- And I please you a little, don't I? - Nice time to choose for light conversation.
1:17:29 > 1:17:31In there, sir. Number 23.
1:17:31 > 1:17:36I thought they'd pulled that place down years ago.
1:17:36 > 1:17:39SHIP'S HORN BOOMS
1:17:45 > 1:17:47Odette.
1:17:47 > 1:17:50Andre.
1:17:50 > 1:17:56I was wondering what had become of you. You have had a pleasant holiday?
1:17:58 > 1:18:01You have the souvenirs of your visit?
1:18:14 > 1:18:17DOOR CREAKS
1:18:41 > 1:18:44- Were you followed? ANDRE! - No.
1:18:44 > 1:18:51- I don't think so.- You don't think so?! Beghin is no fool. What a mess!
1:18:56 > 1:19:00I'm going. You're doing nothing of the sort!
1:19:00 > 1:19:03..Is your car outside?
1:19:03 > 1:19:06CREAKING
1:19:10 > 1:19:13KNOCK ON DOOR
1:19:23 > 1:19:25< Put up your hands, all of you!
1:19:28 > 1:19:31This is an unexpected pleasure.
1:19:33 > 1:19:35I said all of you, Roux.
1:19:38 > 1:19:41Surely this isn't necessary?
1:19:43 > 1:19:48This is the gentleman you want. May I introduce you?
1:19:48 > 1:19:51The police, Graf Kurt von Rothenhan.
1:19:51 > 1:19:55Von Rothenhan, the police. Oh, and M Vadassy.
1:19:55 > 1:19:59I was forgetting him. I can show you everything.
1:20:04 > 1:20:12That file there, inspector, will interest you particularly. I've been waiting for this for a long time.
1:21:47 > 1:21:52- Drop your gun, Vadassy. - I haven't got a gun.
1:21:57 > 1:22:02YOU haven't got a gun either or you'd have shot me in the back.
1:22:10 > 1:22:13You wouldn't have waited for me.
1:22:13 > 1:22:15You're finished, Roux.
1:22:16 > 1:22:20Stop. Stop one moment, please!
1:22:21 > 1:22:26Don't let's be foolish, Vadassy. You know I like you. I always did.
1:22:27 > 1:22:32An hour ago, I offered you 5,000 francs for ten negatives.
1:22:32 > 1:22:35Sell me ten minutes, Vadassy.
1:22:35 > 1:22:39I'll pay you 50,000. 50,000 francs for ten minutes.
1:22:39 > 1:22:41It's no good, Roux. You're finished.
1:22:45 > 1:22:48You don't understand.
1:22:49 > 1:22:5150,000 francs...
1:22:53 > 1:22:56You don't hate me, Vadassy.
1:22:56 > 1:23:00- I don't hate you. - Then, don't do this to me, please.
1:23:00 > 1:23:03You want money, don't you?
1:23:03 > 1:23:07Lots of money. That's all anyone wants. Take it.
1:23:07 > 1:23:10Take it. 50,000.
1:23:10 > 1:23:1350,000 francs for ten minutes only.
1:23:13 > 1:23:16I beg you, Vadassy!
1:23:16 > 1:23:19Please, take it! TAKE it!
1:23:19 > 1:23:21Aaagh!
1:23:35 > 1:23:37BELL CHIMES
1:23:37 > 1:23:41- Albert, what is this noise for? - Madame.
1:23:43 > 1:23:48- How do you feel now?- I feel as if everything were just beginning.
1:23:48 > 1:23:51- Is that nice?- Couldn't be nicer.
1:23:51 > 1:23:55I'm afraid you're going to be a success.
1:23:55 > 1:24:02Dr Vadassy, the great specialist. The well-known lizard fancier who can't swim!
1:24:02 > 1:24:08- I will beat you... to the lighthouse and back? - You're getting above yourself.
1:24:08 > 1:24:10They will be late for lunch.
1:24:10 > 1:24:13It doesn't matter for once.
1:24:16 > 1:24:21What does it matter? Let them be happy while they can.
1:24:21 > 1:24:24For a few summers.
1:24:24 > 1:24:26There's so little time.
