0:13:28 > 0:13:33- I'm married, you know. - L'Chaim.- L'Chaim.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36NURSE: We need a bucket of water.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Please to meet you again, mademoiselle.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13- I know your name.- Well?
0:14:13 > 0:14:16The pilot you shot down told me who you were.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Did he survive?
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Do you really care?
0:14:20 > 0:14:23- Or are you just curious?- The latter.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26At least you are honest.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28It's a start, isn't it?
0:14:28 > 0:14:34Can you be caring without being curious in the first place? So, what's your name?
0:14:34 > 0:14:41His name is Captain Roy Brown and he's alive, no thanks to you.
0:14:41 > 0:14:46He told me you are a supreme profession...and a tricky rascal.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52Well, tell him that I'm honoured by his compliments and, er,
0:14:52 > 0:14:56hope I never have to meet him in the skies again.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58He might get the better of me,
0:14:58 > 0:15:01and I might not be lucky enough to have...
0:15:01 > 0:15:03such a gorgeous attendant.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06Unbelievable!

0:16:09 > 0:16:12you've been chosen as a leader of all fighting men.

0:18:01 > 0:18:05- Watch the haystack!- I know!
0:18:21 > 0:18:26Keep the sun on your back. Don't fire too soon.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30It just warns your opponent and has no other effect.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Best range for shooting is 50 metres. Not more.
0:18:35 > 0:18:39But remember, our task is to bring down aeroplanes, not men.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43So stop firing when your opponent's falling.

0:19:20 > 0:19:21Hello.
0:19:21 > 0:19:26Oh, I almost forgot. If each of you
0:19:26 > 0:19:30hasn't shot down at least one in the next four weeks, you're fired.

0:20:16 > 0:20:20Lieutenant, this is a hospital. Who do you think you are?
0:20:52 > 0:20:54I'm sorry. You knew him well?
0:21:00 > 0:21:02I still don't know your name.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Kate...Otersdorf.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Allemand? German name?
0:21:08 > 0:21:13- Mon pere est Allemand et ma mere est Belge.- Ah, a German father. I see.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Love these fine cigarettes.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20LIGHTER CLICKS REPEATEDLY
0:21:26 > 0:21:30You're a...very beautiful woman.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35I was hoping to see you again.
0:21:35 > 0:21:40- I thought maybe you might be wearing my scarf.- I'll get it for you.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59I couldn't get all the stains out.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04Mademoiselle, have I done something wrong?
0:22:04 > 0:22:09- Am I not worth an answer or is it just that you hate all men?- Hate?
0:22:09 > 0:22:13I don't hate you. It's a male domain.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15But you're angry, aren't you?
0:22:16 > 0:22:22There's another man's blood on it and you do not seem to care.
0:22:22 > 0:22:27Men like you scare me, because I do not understand why you do what you do.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29And being scared makes me angry.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Now please...
0:22:32 > 0:22:34leave me alone.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Wait. Wait!
0:22:38 > 0:22:43Imagine you're up there, like a hawk looking down.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47The wind blows around you. The smell of the engine.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50The draught of the propeller.
0:22:50 > 0:22:56Up there you can let yourself fall. You can climb and turn and spin.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00Freedom. It's what men have always dreamt of.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05I have dreamt of it since I was a little boy.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09But the best part is the chase. The fight.
0:23:09 > 0:23:14The hunt. Sometimes, you see your enemy up close
0:23:14 > 0:23:18and you know he's like you, that he thinks the same thoughts with the same excitement.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21It's like a match.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23A joust. It's like a sport.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Tennis does not kill you.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30It's childhood dreams that got your friend killed.
0:23:35 > 0:23:36No, I don't hate you, Baron.
0:23:39 > 0:23:40I pity you.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48Gentlemen, please!
0:23:48 > 0:23:51It shouldn't be that hard to paint a plane, should it?
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Just do it, Rouber!
0:24:04 > 0:24:08Manfred, what's wrong with you?
0:24:08 > 0:24:10What is this crazy paint job all about?
0:24:10 > 0:24:14Manfred, you know damn well OCA will crucify you for this.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17I don't care about what the office in charge of aviation does
0:24:17 > 0:24:20and you'd better not question my orders!
0:24:20 > 0:24:24I just think you're making a mistake. They'll spot you from a long way off.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27We'd completely lose the advantage of surprise.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29I don't want them to be surprised.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33I want them to be scared.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57Superstitious, huh?
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Like me.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02My mother keeps ordering new coats from our tailor.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04I never pick them up.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08See you around.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30Sir!
0:25:30 > 0:25:32- General!- General von Hoeppner.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Over here, sir!
0:25:39 > 0:25:44You've become quite a celebrity, Baron. You're making headlines.
0:25:48 > 0:25:53The Emperor himself mentioned your name after hearing about your 29th victory.
0:25:53 > 0:25:58So...I've brought a little surprise for you.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Didn't they run out of medals to give me?
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Well, it isn't exactly a medal.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Sir!
0:26:13 > 0:26:17- This wasn't my idea. - It is certainly good propaganda -
0:26:17 > 0:26:21the Richthofen brothers flying together.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23Welcome.
0:26:23 > 0:26:29Your brother's a nice chap. He really has the spirit our Fatherland needs right now.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33So tell me, they come up with these strange new names for you.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36The Diablo Rouge, or the Red Baron.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Why is that?
0:26:59 > 0:27:00I see.
0:27:00 > 0:27:04- <- So much about army rules and regulations.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Interesting.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Very interesting.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23Try to keep the sun on your back. Watch out for the winds.
0:27:23 > 0:27:28And never forget, a pilot's greatest virtue is to know when to run.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- What's this, a joke?- Just do what it helps you to do, Lothar.
0:27:31 > 0:27:35- Run away from a fight?!- Yes. If you cannot win, you fly away.
0:27:35 > 0:27:39- Fast.- It's a thin line between cowardice and cleverness.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43It's true. All right! Morning, gentlemen.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46That's a great idea.
0:27:46 > 0:27:51I already heard rumours the French think this paint is bullet proof.
0:27:56 > 0:28:01I wouldn't take this with me. Could get in the way up there.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14This looks much better.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22The crop stays here.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30- Scared them off, didn't we? - For now. It's getting busy up there.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33Damn French know how to protect their observation balloons.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35I'm all right.
0:28:35 > 0:28:40That was fun, wasn't it? Can I stay at your quarters tonight?
0:28:40 > 0:28:42- Already feeling lonely?- Yeah.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Did you have him transferred?
0:28:45 > 0:28:47- Who?- Brother Lothar.
0:28:49 > 0:28:50Where is he? Do you see him?
0:28:50 > 0:28:54He was right behind me. You'd better keep an eye on your little brother.
0:28:54 > 0:28:58He has a hell of a dangerous attitude.

0:31:47 > 0:31:52- Oswald Boelcke, Your Majesty. - Yes, yes. We need men like him.
0:31:52 > 0:32:00I suppose we'll have to give you another promotion, Richthofen.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03You are a real hero.

0:35:11 > 0:35:15I heard you chaps ran into some massive Allied aerial activity?
0:35:15 > 0:35:20- More than massive.- When Germany produces ten planes, you bet hundreds unloaded on the French coast.
0:35:20 > 0:35:25Let them come. We'll shoot them out of the skies by the hundreds.

0:38:21 > 0:38:26Your prison camps are quite fancy. However, they don't have airfields.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32Thanks for pulling me out of that wreck. For saving my life.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39Pulling you from that wreck didn't save your life.
0:38:41 > 0:38:46True. Without her help, I probably wouldn't have made it back into a plane.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48She sure is a great girl.
0:38:48 > 0:38:53She nursed me for weeks. Did you ever get back your scarf?
0:38:58 > 0:39:02- What now?- Guess we could try killing each other with our pistols.
0:39:02 > 0:39:06- Killing you would make me famous too.- Sorry, I didn't bring mine.

1:06:35 > 1:06:36It happens out here.
1:06:38 > 1:06:40We kill a couple of men.
1:06:40 > 1:06:44And while they fall down in flames, we feel just fine.
1:06:44 > 1:06:45I find this irritating.
1:06:54 > 1:06:59My soldiers do not kill people.
1:07:00 > 1:07:03They simply destroy the enemy.
1:07:03 > 1:07:07Well...the effect seems to be the same.
1:07:12 > 1:07:15We've run out of fuel.
1:07:15 > 1:07:17We've run out of ammunition.
1:07:17 > 1:07:19We've run out of planes.
1:07:21 > 1:07:23And we've run out of pilots.
1:07:25 > 1:07:28We've run out of lives.
1:07:28 > 1:07:31So, don't waste yours.
1:07:31 > 1:07:35Never put yourself in all-or-nothing situations.
1:07:35 > 1:07:37Stay out of fights you cannot win.
1:07:37 > 1:07:41Watch out for the winds, they tend to carry you over the lines.
1:07:41 > 1:07:46Cut your losses and take your lives into your own hands and keep them.
1:07:47 > 1:07:51Please let us not lose more of our friends.
1:07:56 > 1:07:58HEELS CLICK
1:07:58 > 1:08:01- Yes, Menzke? - You have a visitor, sir.
1:08:08 > 1:08:10I thought you might want to celebrate.
1:08:15 > 1:08:18HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
1:08:18 > 1:08:19They published your book!
1:08:24 > 1:08:26The whole of Europe is reading it.
1:08:26 > 1:08:29So...how about dinner?
1:08:30 > 1:08:33Maybe a dance?
1:08:33 > 1:08:36- They shut down the Metropole. - Yes, I know.
1:08:36 > 1:08:38A British bomb hit the kitchen.
1:08:43 > 1:08:45DOG BARKS
1:08:49 > 1:08:51They don't want me to fly any more.
1:08:53 > 1:08:58They're doing everything they can to nail me safely to the ground.
1:08:58 > 1:09:00Really?
1:09:04 > 1:09:09They want me to command the entire Air Force. The Emperor himself.
1:09:10 > 1:09:12That's so wonderful.
1:09:12 > 1:09:16So many times I woke up in the middle of the night
1:09:16 > 1:09:18and read the lists of missing pilots.
1:09:24 > 1:09:26It is so good to have you down here.
1:09:26 > 1:09:28It's safe.
1:09:56 > 1:09:59SAWING >
1:09:59 > 1:10:02- Evening, men.- Sir. - Bloody freezing, isn't it?
1:10:02 > 1:10:03Too true, sir.
1:10:09 > 1:10:11A brand-new Bentley.
1:10:11 > 1:10:16Where did you get it? Bentleys don't fall out of the skies.
1:10:16 > 1:10:19Trust me, I had to argue a little bit with the chap.
1:10:26 > 1:10:29You always wanted to be first of the aces.
1:10:29 > 1:10:33- Now they offer it to you and you hesitate.- Yes.
1:10:34 > 1:10:36I always wanted to be like him.
1:10:39 > 1:10:41Werner?
1:10:44 > 1:10:46Could you ever give up flying?
1:10:48 > 1:10:49I don't think so.
1:10:51 > 1:10:56But if you ask my advice, you should grab your chance.
1:10:56 > 1:10:59You only want me to stop, so you can be first.
1:10:59 > 1:11:01How did you find out?
1:11:03 > 1:11:06All right. All right.
1:11:06 > 1:11:07I'll stop...
1:11:07 > 1:11:10if you'll stop first.
1:11:11 > 1:11:14I don't think so. I'm married to my plane.
1:11:14 > 1:11:17This is how I spend my spare time.
1:11:27 > 1:11:31These are fine planes you're building us, Fokker. The best.
1:11:31 > 1:11:32Yes, thank you.
1:11:32 > 1:11:37And yet, somehow, our own pilots seem to think they can do better.
1:11:37 > 1:11:42Oh, well...we sometimes modify the planes a little,
1:11:42 > 1:11:45- here and there. - Modification is one thing,
1:11:45 > 1:11:49- but replacing our engines with those from enemy planes... - How did you hear of this?
1:11:49 > 1:11:55Early this morning, we received a report of the recovery of a new triplane.
1:11:55 > 1:11:58Well, the Brits were less than amused to find
1:11:58 > 1:12:03one of their own Bentley engines in a Fokker they shot down.
1:12:06 > 1:12:09- I need to see it.- Of course. - I need to see it at once.
1:12:09 > 1:12:13Get me the damn report, now!
1:12:41 > 1:12:43Just three more weeks, Manfred.
1:12:43 > 1:12:47I already have my marching orders. I'm going to join your combat wing.
1:12:50 > 1:12:52What's become of him?
1:12:52 > 1:12:54Fallen in combat.
1:12:58 > 1:13:01- And him? His name's Voss, right? - HE GRABS THE PHOTOS
1:13:05 > 1:13:08They're all dead.
1:13:13 > 1:13:16I will fight with you and Lothar.
1:13:16 > 1:13:21I will make offensives in full preparation. They call it Operation Michael.
1:13:21 > 1:13:24- We will win this war, won't we? - Wolfram, please.
1:13:24 > 1:13:26- It's all right, Father. - Of course we'll win.
1:13:26 > 1:13:30The Allies don't have a clue about what's coming at them.
1:13:33 > 1:13:37- This offensive is going to push them back into the Channel.- >
1:13:43 > 1:13:48BOMBS WHISTLE, GUNFIRE RATTLES
1:13:48 > 1:13:50Sir!
1:13:50 > 1:13:51Morning, sir!
1:13:57 > 1:14:00Please, follow us, sir!
1:14:09 > 1:14:11BOMB WHISTLES NEARBY
1:14:11 > 1:14:13Down!
1:14:14 > 1:14:19CRIES OF PAIN ABOVE, MAN SHOUTS
1:14:19 > 1:14:21GUNFIRE RICOCHETS
1:14:21 > 1:14:24- Go, go, go! - EXPLOSIONS CONTINUE
1:14:27 > 1:14:29Fire!
1:14:29 > 1:14:30Reload!
1:14:39 > 1:14:41What an unexpected surprise!
1:14:42 > 1:14:45You came to visit another British defeat, Captain?
1:14:45 > 1:14:48EXPLOSION OUTSIDE, MAN CRIES IN PAIN
1:14:48 > 1:14:51Lieutenant, go and see if you can find somebody with a camera.
1:14:51 > 1:14:55It is excellent propaganda and makes a very good picture.
1:14:55 > 1:15:00To have our flying ace down here with us on this victorious day.
1:15:00 > 1:15:03Your Excellency, we need to talk.
1:15:07 > 1:15:09You don't want me down here.
1:15:09 > 1:15:14If you give me the power to make strategic decisions, you will not like them.
1:15:16 > 1:15:19Why wouldn't we?
1:15:19 > 1:15:21We very much trust your abilities, Baron.
1:15:21 > 1:15:23I'd suggest we surrender.
1:15:23 > 1:15:28Hah! What arrogance! What a bumptious child you are!
1:15:28 > 1:15:32I was victor in 63 aerial battles.
1:15:32 > 1:15:35You know how I did it?
1:15:35 > 1:15:39When I faced a battle I couldn't win, I flew away.
1:15:39 > 1:15:43What makes you think we cannot win this war, Baron?
1:15:43 > 1:15:46What about our boys? Our holy course?
1:15:47 > 1:15:49French.
1:15:49 > 1:15:52Great cigarettes.
1:15:54 > 1:15:59What makes us think our course is better than the French
1:15:59 > 1:16:02or the British or the American?
1:16:02 > 1:16:04It isn't.
1:16:06 > 1:16:09It's not even different from theirs.
1:16:09 > 1:16:12We just need an excuse for what we do, because, without it,
1:16:12 > 1:16:14we would see who we really are.
1:16:20 > 1:16:23Put this fool back into his aeroplane...
1:16:24 > 1:16:27..and give him a parachute!
1:16:27 > 1:16:30I can't afford to lose another idealistic hero.
1:16:41 > 1:16:45- What the hell are you doing? - Sorry for having bothered you, sir.
1:16:45 > 1:16:48What are you doing with my brother's picture?
1:16:48 > 1:16:51He ordered me to take them down.
1:16:51 > 1:16:55All of them. Sir.
1:16:57 > 1:16:58'Operation Michael.'
1:16:58 > 1:17:03Our ground forces attack on both sides at St Quentin, from here and from here.
1:17:03 > 1:17:06That's a 70 kilometre battle line.
1:17:06 > 1:17:11Right. Our task is to gain control of the entire airspace and keep it, my friends.
1:17:11 > 1:17:15Shouldn't be a problem, should it, Bodenschatz?
1:17:15 > 1:17:17Our planes are outnumbered four to one, Udet.
1:17:17 > 1:17:21We've lived with that for months, haven't we?
1:17:21 > 1:17:23It'll be worse than ever.
1:17:31 > 1:17:33MAN COUGHING
1:17:37 > 1:17:42A SOLDIER SAYS THE LORD'S PRAYER

1:23:41 > 1:23:44His flying circus has swept the British from the skies!
1:23:44 > 1:23:47I saw him fly past,
1:23:47 > 1:23:48waving at us.
1:24:00 > 1:24:03- HEELS CLICK - Sir.
1:24:11 > 1:24:12Gentlemen!
1:24:13 > 1:24:18High Command of the northern sector thanks us for our accomplishments.
1:24:18 > 1:24:21I want to add my thanks.
1:24:21 > 1:24:25You showed me some splendid flying. Thank you.
1:24:25 > 1:24:28- Bravo!- Thank you, sir.- Hear, hear!
1:24:45 > 1:24:47LAUGHTER
1:24:54 > 1:24:56LAUGHTER CONTINUES
1:25:06 > 1:25:08GALLOPING HOOVES
1:25:22 > 1:25:24Is it one of yours?
1:25:26 > 1:25:28I can't tell any more.
1:25:28 > 1:25:30You're flying again, aren't you?
1:25:33 > 1:25:37Why didn't you tell me? Why did you lie to me again?
1:25:46 > 1:25:49HORSE WHINNIES
1:25:58 > 1:26:02I didn't want to scare you. I wanted you to be happy.
1:26:02 > 1:26:05Kate, I just cannot do what they ask of me.
1:26:05 > 1:26:07They offered you safety.
1:26:07 > 1:26:08Your life.
1:26:14 > 1:26:16When I was a little boy,
1:26:16 > 1:26:20I could hit all the targets with my father's rifle.
1:26:20 > 1:26:25Targets so far away the others couldn't even see them.
1:26:25 > 1:26:29I dreamt of seeing everything, dreamt of being like a bird.
1:26:30 > 1:26:32Hawk's eyes.
1:26:32 > 1:26:34Eagle's Eye, I was called.
1:26:35 > 1:26:38When I became a pilot...
1:26:38 > 1:26:41I truly thought I'd see everything from up there.
1:26:43 > 1:26:44I saw nothing.
1:26:44 > 1:26:47I was blind before I met you.
1:26:48 > 1:26:53You opened my eyes. You taught me to see what I didn't want to see.
1:26:55 > 1:26:58We all chose to fly.
1:26:58 > 1:27:03Voss, Sternberg, Lehmann, Wolff, Hawker.
1:27:04 > 1:27:07On whatever side we fought, we all knew the risks we took.
1:27:10 > 1:27:15I wanted to be the best. I wanted to win, and I thought I'd won.
1:27:15 > 1:27:20But I can see now, Kate. I see that we've turned the world into a damned slaughterhouse.
1:27:20 > 1:27:22And I'm already too big a part of it.
1:27:23 > 1:27:28They use my photograph to give hope where there is none.
1:27:28 > 1:27:30They use my name to feign immortality
1:27:30 > 1:27:33whereas the reality is annihilation.
1:27:34 > 1:27:35You said it yourself.
1:27:35 > 1:27:38The men dying out there have no choice. I have.
1:27:38 > 1:27:42I cannot order them into battle.
1:27:42 > 1:27:45I can perhaps lead them, help them, die with them.
1:27:45 > 1:27:48But I will not betray them nor keep the truth from them
1:27:48 > 1:27:51by remaining the immortal god Berlin wants me to be.
1:27:56 > 1:27:59You are my greatest victory.
1:28:19 > 1:28:21Sir?
1:28:23 > 1:28:25Excuse me, sir.
1:28:25 > 1:28:27Sir.
1:28:30 > 1:28:34Sir, British aeroplanes are approaching the front, sir.
1:28:34 > 1:28:37- Thank you.- Sir.
1:28:56 > 1:28:57Yes, thank you.
1:29:05 > 1:29:08They were last reported at Lagnicourt.
1:29:08 > 1:29:11So...they're coming in from the north west.
1:29:12 > 1:29:14Thank you.
1:29:14 > 1:29:18Brother, you don't mind if I lead Number 11 and you fly on my right?
1:29:18 > 1:29:21- Be my guest.- Wolfram?
1:29:22 > 1:29:26Stay clear of any involvement. Keep close to Lothar.
1:29:26 > 1:29:30If you're attacked, break off and fly home fast.
1:29:30 > 1:29:33It's a thin line between cowardice and cleverness.
1:29:49 > 1:29:51A great day to fly.
1:29:54 > 1:29:57You're a brave man, Baron.
1:30:02 > 1:30:04A very brave man.
1:30:40 > 1:30:42Thank you.
1:30:54 > 1:30:58- If it gets bad, fly back. - Sir.- All right?- Sir.

1:33:41 > 1:33:44He asked me why it was important for me to come here.
