All language subtitles for 5 Fingers 1952 James Mason & Michael Rennie (İngilizce_ASR)

thank you

on the 18th of October 1950 a member of

the British Parliament Rose in the House

of Commons to address a question to the

foreign secretary

this book purports to be a true account

of Espionage written by a former German

military attache it reveals the most

astonishing details of a case said to

have occurred but in his Majesty's

Embassy in Turkey in 1944 and in which

hundreds of top secrets including plans

for the invasion of Normandy were stolen

and transmitted to the Germans

has an inquiry into these fantastic

charges taken place measures have been

taken to prevent any future recurrence

of such an incredible lapse in security

however it must be regretfully admitted

that in substance the story to which The

Honorable member refers is a true one

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

foreign

began on March the 4th 1944 it was a day

of grueling fighting on the widely

spread battlefronts of the second world

war but the Sun was shining serenely on

neutral turkey the very same evening on

March the 4th 1944 a Turkish minister

held a reception for the entire

Diplomatic Corps that place Ankara the

capital of neutral turkey

[Music]

if Excellency will excuse me I have

suddenly acquired a rather severe

headache I've had mine for some time

perhaps from standing too much from

listening too much Wagner makes me ill

Heaven I hope your country appreciates

you you are the only unpredictable

German I have ever met

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

everybody

[Music]

I cannot remember when I have seen a

lady as beautiful as you eat as hard

with you

just a little more of a salad if you

please

[Music]

no one admires Turkish food more than I

still the prospect of actually dining

from a buffet at a diplomatic reception

a number of actual dinners I eat these

days is equal to the number of

diplomatic receptions to which I'm lucky

enough to be invited

I've been I have beer thank you I've

often wondered Countess why did you

leave also

bombs were falling I felt I was in the

way and why did you come here you and

your late husband had lived so long in

England you had many friends there I did

not consider being bombed in London more

attractive than being bombed in Warsaw

your own country

as the impoverished Widow of a

pro-german Polish count

it would have required courage

I have none

you could have counted upon our

protection

I understand you are now protecting my

Estates and all of my possessions in

Poland

who has them

Field Marshal gearing I believe

at last

many of our German friends before the

war would come as our guests to hunt

wild pig

I refused to invite gearing I couldn't

tolerate his killing a wild pig

seemed too much like brother against

brother

bon appetit

as always I've enjoyed haven't happened

yeah

haven't happened

I need money

these must be difficult times for you I

know please don't be diplomatic for just

a moment

you can help me

nothing would please me more

if I can I want back what belongs to me

unfortunately there's a war after the

war then I can give you every Assurance

but in the meantime I can be of service

to you to Germany

I can prove my worth then afterwards it

would be easier

I was proving it loan me the means to

leave again here in Ankara Advance it to

me

I can more than make it worth your while

you of all men must know what a friend

of knowledge a clever Hostess can become

are you suggesting that the German

government set you up as a spy

I think that I can earn my keep

it's a solid unrewarding business

sorted but not unrewarding in terms of

money perhaps what other terms are there

I'm sorry I'm afraid it's quite

impossible

what am I going to do then

call upon your friends

I have none that I want

and those who want to be quite frankly

cannot afford it

your pardon yes Excellence the British

Ambassador has just driven up so soon

perhaps we can't talk longer the next

reception by that and it's my turn to

arrive for the last half of the evening

one thing about being a neutral I

can stay late and perhaps continue our

conversation with a British ambassador

[Music]

some noises please do not look at me as

if you had a source of income other than

your salary

[Music]

thank you

laughs

[Music]

excellent yes the Countess tavisca what

about her

I am

based upon something she said to me I

have reason to believe she needs money

you too myself

who approached her however I took her to

me no

she has many friends access to many

sources definitely not

good

night Jackson

[Music]

whatever you do don't raise your voice

what do you want

to tell me your phone message I brought

you the opportunity of your lifetime

chills right now

the Envy of the German foreign service

could I steal from you

[Music]

before I started my proposition let me

warn you not to breathe a word of it to

anyone except your chief

my life will depend upon your discretion

a responsibility I do not choose to

accept I'm afraid you have no choice

your life will depend upon it too

State your proposition

very well

certain British documents classified as

most secret have come into my possession

military and political documents have

utmost value to your government

I'm prepared to sell them

price is twenty thousand pounds English

Pounds Sterling

twenty thousand pounds

who are you I'm a spy obviously

and this is your life work espionage

not exactly

but I have spent a lot of my life

preparing for this day

to my knowledge no spine history has

ever been paid twenty thousand pounds

for any information now aspiring history

has had to sell what I have to sell

besides as far as a notoriously a poor

businessman most of them are

professional Patriots frustrated

liberals or victims of blackmail and in

all such cases the emotional involvement

weakens their bargaining position and

destroys Sound business judgment

would you consider it a sound business

for the German government to pay twenty

thousand pounds to an unidentified

amateur for a set of so-called secret

documents not so called not Secret

most secret top secret

I'm sure they are

and now I have more serious matters to

attend to I'll have an attendant show

you out

why is it

it appears I'm a thing for both of us

first you'll inform Heaven popping of my

offer and naturally he'll have to check

with Berlin I'll give you three days to

consider my proposition on the 7th of

March at three in the afternoon I'll

telephone you here and ask if you've

received a letter for me I call myself

Pierre if you're saying no you'll never

see me again if you say yes it'll mean

you've accepted my offer but I must have

more information if you accept I'll

return at 10 o'clock that evening

you will then receive two rows of film

containing photographs of the documents

I will receive from you the sum of

twenty thousand pounds in English

banknotes of small denominations

should you approve of my first delivery

you can have more

for each subsequent role of film the

price will be fifteen thousand pounds

is this all clear it is not at all clear

what other documents what do they

contain

I hadn't thought to bring samples with

me

but for one thing the English have been

discussing with the text their possible

participation in the war a method of

pure supposition I have the minutes of

their secret talks have on pop and would

find them enlightening and frightening

what else

the latest Allied timetable of the

shuttle bombing of certain Balkan

targets where and when and by whom and

by Harmony

the secret minutes of the Tehran

conflict what else

don't be greedy message

what'd you expect for twenty thousand

pounds

how did you obtain such information

that is no concern of yours nor is my

identity and please do not have me

followed you Germans have no talent for

us you keep wanting to get ahead of the

people you follow

Destiny has held out its hand to you

tonight

take it and hold on

good night

diplomatic receptions are never Pleasant

necessary and unnecessary successful and

unsuccessful or non-committal the faces

may be pleasant but

never the motives

So speaking of pleasant faces there

weren't you at one time in the service

of the countestavisca I was valid to her

late husband the when he was

attached to the polish Embassy at the

goddess and gems she was at the

reception this evening

I hadn't seen her for years

is she what else huh as Charming as ever

but not well off

the teams of the Nazis have confiscated

all of her positions I'm sorry to hear

it she was a lady of great wealth it was

becoming to her she used it well a

generous brilliant Hostess the

conference to visca

yes sir more than anyone I've ever known

she symbolized the world in which she

lived and which she thought would never

end a world of infinite Beauty luxury

and Indulgence

those were pleasant days there

gone forever I'm afraid let us hope not

sir I put the survey of Turkish

manganese beside your bed together with

your jungle oh yes thank you that one

moment sir

the capsule yellow have you ever

considered the possibility that you

might just once forget something often

sir I don't think you'd ever get over it

Northwestern

good night yellow good night

[Music]

dispatch from Berlin has just arrived

transaction approved take every

precaution essential you determine

identity of agent

expect immediate report after delivery

of documents

signed Carlton what does he mean sir by

take every precaution that you are not

to hand over the money until you have

developed the films examined them and

decided by they are genuine and worth it

it's quite a responsibility yes it is

money arrived by Courier from billion

this morning twenty thousand pounds

I have not taken any of it noisy you can

count it in your own office yes sir I

have no intention believe me if I'm sure

you can't handle this alone yes

what about developing the films a

photography is a hobby of mine I have

used the dark room often good the fewer

people who know about this the better

particularly if this fellow makes fools

of us

personally

I sent something bogus about the whole

affair

a man may be a clever swindler

perhaps even a British agent trying to

plant false information on us

what was your impression of invoiceage

well so I begin to be a highly trained

special agent perhaps a foreign office

career man British of course an Oxford

blade Aristocrat If Ever I saw one you

know the types arrogant spoiled cynical

and completely decadent fantastic

by the way a code name has been assigned

to him scissorov

needs to be referred to as Cicero Cicero

a name is a personal choice of her

ribbon trap is it any significant sir

none that I know of except the

surprising fact that her even drop has

even heard of Cicero yes sir that's all

a message good luck and keep your weight

sharp a great deal depends on you yes

sir

thank you

I forgot the money

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

have the money I see you have the film

fetch me a drink when I count it

Scotch whiskey I'm sure that you must

have some

[Music]

thank you

one of the pleasures of Duty in a

neutral country you Germans can drink

fine Scotch whiskey and your enemies can

fill up on fine German beer

[Music]

the film

[Music]

not yet you must wait until I developed

the film it'll take only a few minutes

those are my orders if you insist just

as once

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

yourself yes

crumbling like a butterfly it'll help

steady your wings

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

Turkish government

ready to offer

full support short of entering War as

open go belligerent

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

my government is authorized me to make

further arrangements with you I assume

you've informed them of the price

fifteen thousand fans for each

additional roll of film

[Applause]

added

I said to myself if I were an ambitious

Natasha in the German Embassy what would

be the combination of my safe how dare

you 1 30 33 the day Hitler came to power

I imagine there's the open half the

saves in Germany and Hitler's birthday

the other half

an unimaginated blood tour don't be

upset my sister there wasn't anything

else worth taking

my government is prepared to pay 10 000

pounds per roll no more we won't haggle

message I risked my life to get these

documents 15 of them at one thousand

pounds each the price is quite

reasonable you'll pay it but under one

condition

my superiors insists and knowing who you

are and how you obtain your information

why because because it's highly

irregular having an agent in our

employer about whom we know nothing I am

not an agent in your employer I

understand that clearly all the same

it's it's essential that we know it's an

essential that you know anything about

me however I will tell you this much I

work at the British Embassy sooner or

later you'll find that out anyway that's

my name you have been assigned a code

name Cicero Cicero

a man of nobility eloquence and

dissatisfaction

I like that name when will you bring

more film a week from tonight at the

same hour and have the money ready on

Moises change the combination of that

safe may I suggest one try 6 18 15.

that's the date of the Battle of

Waterloo good night

[Music]

my mother

[Music]

oh my God

[Music]

right now

[Music]

oh it's still yellow do I disturb you

madam not at all it's always a pleasure

to see you come in

okay

[Music]

take your coat off sit down and gossip

with me

fortunately I have a dinner engagement

but he's an under secretary and used to

waiting any particular under secretary

Madam and the secretaries are never

particularly yellow

perhaps that's why they take me to

dinner

it is far more likely that in madame's

presence

they feel like ambassadors

all the diplomats I've known are still

the best it's my good fortune that

you've known so a few ballots

yellow please I've spoken to you about

this before your verdict the British

Ambassador not to me now sit down and

tell me the gossip

well to begin with the noses of the

wives of the Diplomatic Corps axis

Allied and neutral have been badly out

of joint this past week due to due to

the ease with which the Countess of his

care once more proved herself the most

radiant beautiful and sought-after lady

in Ankara at last week's reception

another of your unverified rumors I was

afraid Madam would accuse me unjustly

prepare to name my authority oh

the British Ambassador no less

he spoke of your beauty and Brilliance

and Hospitality of how in the old days

you were a symbol of everything worth

having and wanting a symbol of the good

old days that's me

foreign

shop for me tomorrow

I couldn't face the haggling and whining

perhaps it would be pleasant for you to

go by yourself tomorrow

and bring back the jewels your redeem

I don't understand

redeem

it's yours

five thousand pounds

it's from me

from you

is it a joke it can't be real

there's nothing as real as money

DIY I don't know when I could pay this

back to you I don't want it back but I

can't permit you to

it must be the savings of a lifetime

they're not my savings I'm not a saving

man

if you must know uh

business Ventura of mine was paid off

handsomely

and gives promise of far greater profits

to come

what has it to do with me I propose to

advance you these five thousand pounds

in return for certain favors

at the moment this particular Enterprise

must remain highly confidential the

ambassador of course knows nothing about

it not as anyone except my business

associate and you

[Music]

profits will be exceedingly large

I couldn't possibly keep such stumps at

the embassy nor do I want to draw

attention to myself by depositing the

money in a bank

but you could keep it for me

there go on

you could leave this grubby rum

rent an attractive house live as you

please entertains you please and how

would all that be a favor to you

from time to time I should want to

transact my business in privacy

International continue to live at the

embassy but you would set aside certain

quarters for me I see

if all goes well I shall have some 200

000 pounds within 12 weeks

is the amount I've said is my girl and

then then South America

to a new life a new name

that of course will require certain

purpose of identity passport visas

letters of credit you could be of great

help in obtaining such documents for me

how and explain that when the time comes

is there anything

nothing

seems little enough to ask for five

thousand pounds

are you going to tell me what your

business is sometime perhaps not now is

he quite a trust you put in me

if I were to be Indiscreet it would ruin

everything for you and for you too you

seem very sure of yourself

I'm sure of you

oh

for three years I was valid to the lid

conster whiskey

to said that no man was a hero to his

valid it is also true that no woman is a

mystery to her husband's palette you

know me that well well enough the source

of your money has never concerned you

any more than the source of your

electric light they became worrisome

only when they were shut off quite true

that there's Pride

I have pride a great deal I depend upon

your pride

you'd find it intolerable to have it

known that your wealth

Madam you'll keep your mouth shut tight

look at me Brandy

[Music]

I shall ring only out of one last thank

you

yellow

do you know why I discharged you after

my husband died

you said you'd be traveling and wouldn't

need a man servant

that was a lie

yes it was

I let you go because you made me uneasy

you are much too clever for a servant

to swear to wise

self-contained

I was almost afraid of you

I felt you had an evil genius for

something

little did I know it was a genius for

making money

that is a lie too that wasn't what I

made you uneasy

no no you were attracted to me

it was upsetting to feel that way about

a valid and to feel that the valid knew

it all the time

[Music]

I know have I offended you you'll soon

be very rich

everything worth having and wanting he

didn't say that about you I did that's

how I've always thought about you and

now you want me to go with you to South

America yes to a new life yes away from

the wars the intrigues the fears the

poverty

and it would be right for us now

because now now at last

we are equals yes

where are you going

I don't have a dinner engagement and we

seem to have run out of Gossip I shall

cancel the dinner

and we can talk business

you made me a business proposition

I agree to that part of it

as for the rest of the proposition it's

not an impossibility

it's merely an improbability and above

all an impertinence

because address 2 is an equal no

because you addressed me as a servant

because in the manner of an inferior you

try to buy something you didn't think

you married to on your own

now let's get down to the details of

business

my name is Anna

yes Anna

thank you

24 hours after the Cicero documents had

reached gestapo headquarters in Germany

moisich was summoned to Berlin to report

personally to General Carlton Bruner

incredible

you have the negative yes sir give them

to Colonel van riester

too good to be true 25 top secret

documents from an unknown agent this has

all the year marks of a British trap sir

yes ambassador from Papua requested me

to report that in his opinion the

documents are genuine I'm not interested

in for partner's opinion I want facts

prove conclusive proof what's the real

identity of this fellow Cicero what are

his motives aside from the money does he

have a Confederate he hasn't answered

any of these vital questions and

happiness Cicero is most uncooperative

teach him to cooperate that's your job

what do you think of the information on

the Tehran Conference

that looks authentic but it's such high

level material but we have no means of

verifying it exactly and we can act on

what we can confirm but there's one

document here that can be confirmed this

the operational plan for the shuttle

bombing of Bolton targets according to

this British Heavies are going to bomb

the Pro HD oil fields on April 5th if

the rate takes place on schedule that

would serve to confirm the authenticity

of the other documents good point is it

your intention sir to warn the Romanians

of course not what purpose would that

serve have you made another round with

Cicero for next Thursday evening very

well you'll fly back to Anchor and keep

that appointment but try to get some

facts on the man tell him we can keep

paying out such sons of money unless we

know how he gets his information I do my

best sir

try to do better than that

yes sir

this is your responsibility I warn you

yes

[Music]

half-witted paranoic gangsters

refusing to warn the Romanians thousands

of dead millions of gallons of precious

oil and gasoline gone

can no longer admit that any single

world is genuine but surely there it

will convince them even if it does

no they can't admit it

but if Windor found out Captain born I

made a mistake and if gerbus found out

about ribbon top and if himla found out

about Garrus my sister it's time you

understood you represent the government

of juvenile delinquents yes sir

well if Berlin doesn't know how to

utilize Cicero I most certainly do

have you received an answer from the

Turkish foreign office yes Excellence

his Excellency will be unable to see you

this evening he's attending a reception

what reception it's a counter staviscus

I believe

that account is I shall be there myself

excellent

what's all this support Excellence was

invited but you declined so I did I

didn't realize

for the contest has found a benefactor

after all

I wonder who

and also another my income this could

only happen in Ankara and only to

recount

last month's penniless this month's the

Turkish foreign office supplies her

guest Savannah

called the compass

say I find myself free this evening

after all

and would be delighted to attend

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

tomorrow

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

foreign

yeah afraid you have to wake Morrison

and ask him to come here at once yes sir

[Music]

yes sir you change back into your

jackets but oh uh thank you

[Music]

Morrison will be there directly sir

thank you

turn on that lamp will you dial up yes

sir

[Music]

oh uh

spelled must be burnt outside

I'll have a good place

[Music]

I'm sorry to awaken you get this

dispatch off to Whitehall at once

have this coded and classified as most

secret

upon representation from Turkish foreign

office

there is strong reason to believe

yellow will you shut the door please

that a strong reason to believe that van

problem is in possession of top secret

information

which would indicate leak in security

here upon receipt of this highly

classified message the foreign office in

London took immediate action let me read

you what we received from Ankara early

this morning

upon representation from Turkish foreign

office there is strong reason to believe

that Van Patten is in possession of top

secret information which would indicate

leaking security here or not see access

to secret documents or possibility have

broken British diplomatic Cipher Colin

Traver is a special agent of British

counterintelligence left London by plane

next morning Bound for Istanbul Colonel

Von rifter the Gestapo Carter Espionage

service left Berlin biplane the same day

Travers and Colonel Von Richter arrived

at Istanbul the same evening and boarded

the Anatolian Express

they reached Ankara next morning

Von Richter carried a Swiss passport

identifying him as hell Rudolph hodla a

tobacco buyer from Bayern Switzerland

he was met at the station by a Gestapo

agent named Siebert and immediately

escorted to the German Embassy to confer

with hero Von Papa

was greeted outside the station by Keith

McFadden a British agent attached to the

Embassy at Ankara McFadden that's the

attraction they're left without delay to

meet with the British ambassador

[Music]

to begin with sir I think we must assume

that the source of information to the

Nazis is someone here at the embassy

after that has been all about SNL and

permanent employees have had previous

security clearance from London

I've never known a self-respecting spy

without a security clearance

where do you store classified

information today right then am I safe

from the first secretaries what about

the code room under God day and night

don't you think it most likely said that

this lamentable lapse insecurity was due

to some unintentional slip of the lip at

some party or reception my lips are not

in the habit of slipping to travel no do

I implied that they are then but our

material does pass through other hands

it might pass through other lips

McFadden was telling me about a an

unattached lady a certain Countess to

Whiskey

thank you do you know you were saying

thank you

a certain countess tabisca

it seems she's quite recently and

suddenly begun to entertain informal gay

little gatherings

I assume some of our Embassy Personnel

have attended from time to time the

Countess has a wide circle of friends

which I'm happy to say has included me

for some time at that Circle no doubt

would also include have on papin and his

associates Mr Travis the college is

doing her very best I assure you to live

neutrally in a neutral country under the

circumstance according to Matthew her

circumstances have taken a startling

change for the better

does anyone know the source of a sudden

Good Fortune I cannot see that it

concerns anyone but the Countess of iska

and I certainly cannot see what the

source of our income has to do with our

problem

now I'm probably just a gossip at heart

maybe that's why I like my work

counter Espionage is the highest form of

gossip

it is obvious the ciso is being the

wheels for the Countess why else would

he choose heavily for his next only who

was my search but a strange and sudden

and perfect relationship

too strange too sudden and Too Perfect

Diana and Cicero and the well-known

countess well known for her anti-german

sentiments yet only or recently she

pleaded with me personally for an

opportunity to work in our interests the

suggestion of British intelligence No

Doubt

galvanavista just what will convince you

the scissor is what he says he is a spy

selling us genuine documents of great

value for a great sum of money I've come

here to convince myself from partner one

way or the other

a talk with Cicero might help

message

when do you meet him next at the Villa

next Thursday evening and he will

arrange for Mr hodler the Swiss

businessman to be present

my incognitive

I think it's purple that my sich Who

Remain our only contact with Cicero I'm

afraid you do not understand why I'm

here Excellence I have come to Ankara to

relieve you of all the responsibility in

our relations with Cicero I cannot be

relieved of that responsibility except

by the order of family stories

expressed the hope that he would not

force him to bypass her interim trap and

bring the matter directly to the pharah

but further instructions has

the Gestapo for me in the future all

documents from Cicero will be sent

directly to Berlin

those which general cotton burner feels

are pertinent to your diplomatic Mission

will then be transmitted to you

message do what you can to make the

coral stay in Ankara a comfortable one

thank you

[Music]

thank you

thank you

yes

I called him out

yes of course

[Music]

there there's a gentleman here who

wishes to see you privately you had a

business appointment I believe I believe

so I'll take you to him

I'm indebted to her Moses for suggesting

that I ask you to our little musical

evening

I hope you haven't found it to subdue on

the contrary it's been exactly as I

would have wished it have you known how

Moises long we have been business

associates for some time are you two a

diplomat I suppose you could call me a

middleman

there are also many Swiss middlemen

seems to be a national occupation what

could be more natural after all we Swiss

have been in the middle for hundreds of

years

come in

I'll see that you're not Disturbed

[Applause]

kind of one Richter

sit down please

tells me you're to be the new

intermediary that's correct sent from

Berlin by General Carlton Bruner I

should imagine to see towards that front

pappin keeps his hands off the

information I Supply

Havana's the finest money can buy

I approve of the change my such is

conscientious but not very bright and

too well known in Ankara it'll be safer

for me to deal with you your security is

a matter of grave concern to us I'm

happy to hear it I share your concern

for this reason I must ask you about the

counters

have you told her who I am of course not

does she know the nature of your

business no then

just what is her relationship I did not

invite you here to discuss my Private

Affairs we have some business to

transact did you bring the money as

always you will be paid after we have

developed the film during the past six

weeks I've sold my stage 50 photographs

all of genuine secret documents that's

proof enough of my good faith and first

you will pay on delivery

the money

possibly you're no longer interested in

the Strategic plans of the Allies for

the entire Mediterranean area

you mean a second front I do not know

the number of the front

I do know that in these documents Mr

Churchill keeps referring to the soft

underbelly of Europe

because I could take the front of van

papen and ask that he himself queered

the German High command as to their

interest

very well

are you headed with you all the time

who are you anyway if I told you I was

let's say the valid to the British

Ambassador would you believe me

certainly not you see and at least

satisfy my personal Curiosity on one

point why are you selling us information

I thought that was self-evident for

money you must have some other motive

perhaps you share or discussed with

British decadence or facing the future

of Germany

if I have a disgust for anything it is

poverty and if I have faith in the

future of anything it is in the future

of money but I cannot understand why on

the one hand you sell us information

which will help us to win the war and on

the other hand you insist upon being

paid in money with a very dubious future

British pounds what makes you think I

think Germany will win the war

from all other considerations apparently

you attach little importance to these

documents in the first place I cannot

tell you the ability to make proper use

of the information I get for you in the

second place by informing a man about to

be hanged of the exact size location and

strength of the Rope you do not remove

either the hangman or the 70 of his

being hanged

foreign

profitable evening profitable enough to

bring the total 75 000 pounds

another six or seven weeks should do it

Taylor why don't you stop now why go on

playing with fire what makes you think I

am oh don't treat me like an idiot child

your friend hudler he's in Swiss oh I

know impression when I see one does it

matter to you your safety matters to me

so many people are concerned about my

safety I never felt more secure well I

don't and my security depends upon yours

forgive me I keep thinking of myself as

a man

I keep forgetting I'm a valid who pays

dividends must you leave so soon I

mustn't stay away from the embassy any

longer than necessary I can't see why a

man as rich as you should go on pressing

the trousers of the British Ambassador

that's where I get my money I steal the

loose change from his pockets no before

you go to Yellow

get me a drink

will you

[Music]

tell me where do you plan to settle when

you live for South America real

I've never been there

nothing like it in the world

when did you decide to go there let's go

back

I decided that the moment I first saw it

many years ago

I was a cabin boy on a dirty Trump

steamer

I can remember standing at the rail

looking up at a villa high on the

Mountainside above the harbor

see a man on a balcony looking down at

my ship

he was wearing a white dinner jacket

seemed close enough to touch

and here he was beyond the reach of

anyone

[Music]

I swore then that someday I'd be that

man

[Music]

you might find Rio de Janeiro not too

lucky

you have a nationality at yellow most

people are born somewhere you're not a

native Englishman what are you Albanian

English by adoption you're the only

Albanian I've ever known if you know one

you know them all I ran away to see when

I was a boy and then

animals live in England it seemed

profitable to become a gentleman so I

went into Service as you have pointed

out I'm not yet a gentleman

but I am the best of the gentleman's

gentleman which reminds me the

Ambassador will be wondering what has

kept me what will you tell him that I

was detained by a Turkish chamber maid

he might not approve why shouldn't he

only a woman of my own class would want

to detain me and only a man of my class

would permit her to him

[Music]

on the contrary

I think I'll find Rio de Janeiro very

much to my liking

foreign

[Music]

get me a drink

[Music]

during the next five weeks Cicero sold

the Germans 35 top secret documents

which brought his growing Fortune to 155

000 pounds sterling

the Germans were informed of every

secret word the British Ambassador set

to paper every sacred conference every

secret Pact

and yet despite the unerring accuracy of

the information gathered from the Cicero

documents German intelligence refused to

act upon it out of fear that Cicero

might be a British plant

as for the British they had failed to

uncover any breach in their security

Travers grew increasingly certain that

his first assumption must have been

correct that there was no spy to lay

hands on and so in your three years as

her husband's valid I'm sure you'll

learn more about them both than we could

in a lifetime investigation infinitely

motion I respect your reluctance to

discuss the Private Affairs of a past

employer it's also reassuring to me

personally but dealer we are at War I

understand sir tell me did you ever have

occasion to hear the Countess Express

Sympathy for the Nazis privately or

openly to my knowledge the count has

never spoke of countries political

parties or groups the world hair was

made up of individual people which

either lacked or disliked or would you

consider to have been pro-german the

Countess was capable of being pro-

anything if it made for a congenial

dinner party

then would you consider it possible

under certain circumstances for her to

have become a German agent only for

money sir of which she has suddenly

acquired a plentiful Supply I know

nothing about spiers of course and the

way they function but I can remember

that the count has had a remarkable

talent for receiving confidences from

important people

you can't always relied upon her for a

great deal of information that was

otherwise unavailable to him thank you

to Yellow that's all thank you sir I'll

be dining at the American Embassy you

may take the evening off thank you sir

clever Jab

because he supports your theory

that the breach in our security was no

more than a few irresponsible remarks at

one of Anna stavisca's dinner parties

well frankly sir that is a fairly

accurate summary of the report I was

planning to send to London I hope you're

right

that remains however

that from purple still anticipates Every

Move I Make You may soon be doing some

anticipating of your own sir about

having Papa and his moves how do you

mean that this is extremely confidential

of course but our cryptographers in

London have just succeeded in breaking a

German diplomatic code a code used by

their Embassy here

that's welcome news I must say of course

they'll discard the code sooner or later

just as we change ours periodically

but for a while we'll be eavesdropping

on the German ambassador tweeves Japan

a pleasure I have long hoped for

nervous camera

this house is further dangerous the

meeting place for us I wouldn't be

surprised if the British were watching

it I haven't yet but they will soon

let's respect the Countess is a German

agent

are you serious all the while you

suspected she was a British agent

amusing isn't it not at all in the

circumstances we shouldn't have met here

from now on we won't do you know the

Aslan Hane mosque in the old quarter

why is it you'll find it we'll meet in

the entrance of it a week from tonight

at the same hour be sure to take her

shoes off the Muslims will resent it if

you don't shirtless to them no more

childish than you're resenting someone's

hat being on a church

an exchange of notes between the Turks

and the British attacks have decided to

remain ostensibly neutral for the time

being such information is hardly worth

twenty thousand pounds is good news of

no value to you Germans or are you

willing to pay only for storm warnings

of approaching disasters you can do

nothing about there's one disaster we

can do something about and about which

it is most important for us to have full

information as quickly as possible

sounds exciting

a certain code word has appeared in

several of the documents you've sold us

the word is Overlord do you know what it

means

not the foggiest notion we are convinced

that overload is the code name for their

so-called second front Invasion plan for

Western Europe

but we must know is the place

in date

the where and the when the where and

when of the Allies inversion of Europe

it'd be nice to know I can understand

your curiosity I'll pay you double for

it forty thousand pounds generous of you

but his information of that nature

likely to turn up at the British Embassy

in Ankara don't you read the documents

yourself not all of them are never

thoroughly I'm not particularly

interested in what they say I usually

just photograph everything inside that's

dumb secret most secret and top secret

for your information last week you

photographed A dispatch from London to

the British Ambassador it stated that

the Ambassador would receive a copy of

the revised strategic plan for Overlord

within 10 days hmm

did you say forty thousand pounds

for the where and the when

one week from tonight

do you mind going out through the garden

colonel

that's all

you and the Countess must be running out

of small talk anyway

good night

this was deciphoned from the German code

we've broken yes sir who's seen it you

and I said that's all but McFadden

should hear it I'll need his help

from German Embassy Ankara to write

foreign minister Berlin

and apply your query concerning

authenticity documents obtained from

Cicero and firmly convinced material

genuine

Cicero lives within British Embassy

obviously has access to top secret

information

make them available to me tragic blunder

strongly urge you bring this matter to

personal attention of the fear

it's obviously a code name for their

Informer where do we start with your

permissions there I'll order a house

search at once it's hardly likely our

friend Cicero has left anything

incriminating lying about but something

might turn up but one thing sure an open

search will put him right on his guard

and that can't be helped if we can't

catch this by we've got to frighten him

perhaps frighten him enough to make him

stop for a while

but anyway we'll gain time

for the president I'm forced to leave

this matter in your hands you know

unexpected from Cairo tomorrow evening

until my return you may of course take

all the security measures you consider

necessary for one thing I suggest the

combinations of the saves the chains and

safety devices installed of course what

about assistance do you have enough men

yeah we have four other agents in anchor

around other assignments I can reassign

them to this whatever you think

let me Travelers do you have any idea

who it might be a dozen members of the

staff have access to classified material

code clocks attaches under secretaries

first counselor and so on McFadden you

and I

short Cicero could be any one of us yes

any one of us

there you are sir a few days before I

get the combination changed but the

alarm's on and ready to go well just so

that they don't Set It Off by myself

you'd better explain again how it works

there's nothing to work sir if you were

to turn that dial a sixteenth of an inch

in the other direction the alarm would

go off to cut off the alarm

I'm sorry to disturb yourself

uh shut up back your uniforms I won't be

needing them thank you yellow very well

sound close your bags and by the way

don't be upset if Mr McFadden should uh

ransack my quarters while I'm gone

there'll be no need of that I'm sure sir

[Music]

hey

[Music]

stone is wet cold and wet acceptable to

Muhammad and feet perhaps but not to

mine

it's 22 minutes late

it's the first time it's never been late

before and you say he hasn't been to the

Villa all this week

see but has kept a day and night watch

Cicero has not appeared once in the

Countess she is not entertained she has

gone out a few evenings alone

can it be possible sir that the British

have found him out it can also be

possible that the British have known

about him all the time curious how

easily sister acquired the documents he

wanted to sell and when only once we

named the documents we wanted to buy or

mysteriously has failed to deliver it

relax

what does the colonel propose to do now

precisely nothing all spies in time

outlive their usefulness

and I'm afraid message that your friend

Cicero has just about outlived his

if any

[Music]

one

thank you

[Music]

well done

Senora Antonini it was nothing Senor one

of my many Pleasant wifely duties how

much they cost five thousand pounds

another thousand for a set of peppers to

go with them birth and marriage

certificates that sort of thing and

another thousand to help him forget all

about us money well spent what about the

tickets two first-class compartments in

separate cars on the Istanbul Express

leaving tomorrow evening and the ship

and Argentine passenger freighter

sailing from Istanbul director Rio when

day after tomorrow at sundown now

remember mistake no notice of me

whatsoever on the train when we reach

his Temple we'll go about the ship at

once

size of the deposit created quite a stir

the manager of the banks seemed

extremely curious but I managed to

satisfy his Curiosity on all points when

he took me to lunch and he will

personally expedite the transfer of

funds the papers will be ready tomorrow

morning how much does that cost another

thousand and all of my powers of

persuasion

side of respectability

a little over generous perhaps and let's

see five seven nine thousand for

expenses that leaves roughly 130 000

pounds in dollars about 600 000 in

Brazilian Crusaders about eleven and a

half million plus the Forty thousand

pounds you're getting tomorrow I pulled

out of that particular transaction the

Market's getting shaky I've decided to

him until he hands it over that'll be

somewhere in Istanbul

[Music]

foreign

so by the time you receive this my dear

Ambassador I shall be far away from

Ankara

far away from Intrigue and uncertainty

and humiliation

I shall be settled I hope in a new life

of peace and security and self-respect

you have spoken so often to me my dear

friend of tielo

the perfect Valley who served my late

husband and who serves you now

surely I can offer no greater proof of

my affection for you and my devotion to

the Allied cause

then to inform you now

that your trust of DLo is a German spy

I know that both you and your government

[Music]

just a few minutes sir

foreign

did you sleep well

I slept extremely well the guards to the

left of me guards to the right of me you

are my bodyguards aren't you or are you

my assassins we are to see the blue harm

comes to you from the British oh no it

puts me in right in a class with Norway

and Denmark and Ireland and any number

of things you're protecting from the

British besides if anyone were to lay a

hand on me I could Expose and ruin this

film in a matter of seconds you are in

no danger at all we will stay at your

side and see you safely to the German

consulate don't be Whimsical I can't

give you a message from message tell him

he's to meet me at hakim's restaurant

near the Watchtower at six o'clock sharp

this evening we would prefer if you come

to the German consulate the same hour if

you like no thank you although I'm

tempted so many more people go into

German consulates than come out I've

often wondered what possible attraction

could keep them there so long we must

have some guarantee that you have the

film I thought she was a silent partner

here's all the guarantee you'll need

don't have rapid

it's a strip of film have more such

develop it and you'll see a piece of the

document that Colonel Von Richter wants

to buy and deliver the rest of it when

mozich meets me and pays me one hundred

thousand pounds one hundred thousand I

forgot to tell you I raised the price

remember to be extremely friendly give

him the money first as soon as you have

the other portion of the film come

straight back here yes

you know what to do after that there's a

problem of the Turkish police

it is hardly likely you will choose to

kill sister on a crowded street or in

the presence of a policeman on the other

hand it's highly likely he will go to

the police himself not with one hundred

thousand British pounds in his pocket

yes sir

good luck

now like this city was created by Anna

primarily for the convenience of spies

nobody ever found anybody in Istanbul

anything going on here Von Richter in my

city went in likewise our two Playmates

nobody's come out

yet

[Music]

so

thank you

[Music]

my dear colleague I'm delighted to see

you it's far too early for civilized

dining but I have a busy evening before

not hungry do you feel faint perhaps you

can sit down and have some Turkish

banana Brandy it stimulates the blood

lifetime

let's get under the business

did you bring all of it

one hundred thousand

remember a gentleman I would assume that

the money is all here unfortunately I

shall not be a gentleman until I

finished counting it

for a friend he uh you may be in a

private room do you have private rooms

disturbed but he's expecting me I'm

sorry

time for using your Whistler time for

blasting away for my no Monopoly on

wooded Supermen would drop us before we

got clear of this table but he may be

handing over the films this minute as of

this minute we don't want the films

they're worthless

plans can be changed

we want Cicero and we want him alive so

he can tell us just how much the Nazis

have found out

come to think of it for exactly the same

reasons the Nazis must want him very

much dead

British Consulate let's be honest back

walk away together and then say goodbye

D-Day for operation overload is

cow did you hear it yes I heard now you

hear this

an urgent dispatch from from

I've just received personal letter from

Countess anastaviska naming Cicero as

British agent am unable to corroborate

acquisition because counties has left

country but in view of her past efforts

to ingratiate herself with us and

compelled to believe her charge is true

I don't believe it I've always believed

that from the first I Told You So I know

the British in their childish tricks I

don't believe it the earlier documents

they were genuine events proved them

genuinely of course they had to be so

that we would swallow that big lie that

one I nearly played with mankind for

this

I knew it

I knew it all along

[Music]

thank you

sir

[Music]

safely

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

come on

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

is already known in Rio for his

Exquisite taste in wine

are you associated with the bank twos in

your centers no Senor with the Brazilian

Department of investigation

ah

then I assume you investigate Argentine

citizens who settle in your beautiful

city among other things yes and have you

discovered some irregularity in my

papers no Senor your papers are all

perfectly in order

there is any regularity however

it is a matter of your

overdrawn as of yesterday I had

approximately 7 million Crusaders from

my account

I was referring to the bank draft with

which you purchased this Villa as I

recall that transaction I paid the full

sum in cash 25 000 Pounds Sterling that

is correct what seems to be the

difficulty

the money has been returned

I don't know it's for it's counterfeit

you have a distorted sense of humor then

yeah the malaise counterfeit so is the

money which you exchange for Brazilian

currency it is all counterfeit believe

me senor I do not wish to live to

conclusions a gentleman of your obvious

refinement perhaps you are an

unfortunate dupe this currency has been

in circulation for months and the

British authorities have only recently

detected the forgery I have samples here

of every series in your possession

they are the most skillful facsimiles I

have ever seen senior Antonini I implore

you to cooperate you see we know that

these counterfeit notes were printed in

Germany the British have established

that beyond the shadow of a doubt and so

far they have turned up in three places

here in Brazil in turkey and in

Switzerland

Switzerland over one hundred thousand

counterfeit British pounds were

confiscated there recently in the

possession of a political refugee a lady

it would be in your interest to tell us

where and how you got this money

Switzerland believe me sayor this is no

laughing matter

this is my unhappy duty to inform you

that you are under arrest

[Laughter]

I know
