Original subtitles

A few minutes more Sir Winston, and the nightmare will be over.

The execution will take place at exactly 5:10.

I confess to you, inspector, that minutes don't pass quickly.

You must understand my being nervous dear Maigres...

from when we succeeded in arresting him he seemed to be

waiting forthis moment...

KriminaI... A name that in little more than a year

has become famous in the whole continent.

In Paris they don't talk of anything else.

An exceptionaI individuaI, in both intelligence and cold blood.

No name could fit him better than this

That he himself has chosen, from others.

Unfortunately his reaI identity will remain wrapped in mystery.

Aren't you suspicious, of the indications?

No! Some think he's a former Physics University professorfrom Lipsya,

Others a deserterfrom NATO, however, for me he is simply

KriminaI... The genius of eviI.

He who has realized the heist, the most audacious robbery of this century.

The theft of the British Crown.

In a few minutes he will only be a corpse.

Yup! And he will carry his secret to the grave.

That for a year has obsessed the whole country.

Do you believe, that facing death

he will reveaI where he's hidden the precious heirloom?

No, you can forget about it.

How absurd! On top of it all how can one sell the British Crown.

But it will make the history books for being stolen!

Trust me, commissioner, KriminaI won't talk!

A guard has lost his life thanks to KriminaI.

Now is the time for him to pay his debt to society.

Two minutes!

The rope has broken off.

Emergency lights, quick. Give the alarm!

Hello! Yes, it's me. Yes? What!

It's not possible! It can't be! It's absurd, incredible.

He escaped!

Milton here. Escaped?

Fine, very good. I am gratefuI Chief.

But you have not understood? KriminaI is not dead, He escaped.

It's exactly forthis that I thank the chief.

I have organized KriminaI's escape!

- You! - Yes, me gentlemen.

It was the only possible way to succeed in concluding

the game to our advantage.

All is going according to plan... KriminaI will arrive at Tamigi

through the underground tunnels that we left unguarded...

He will find clothes and will head forfreedom...

...followed at a distance by your men

controlled by car radio, TV cameras, traffic controI posts,

In other words, you're hoping he'll take you to the British Crown?

I am sure commissioner! I will have KriminaI and the crown!

Incredible. All that without warning me, without my consent.

You wouldn't have allowed me to go through it, Sir Winston.

I thought it wise to act on my own initiative.

Young man, even I took the initiative once.

And they sent me for 15 years as a guard in India.

I hope I am luckier, sir.

Attention! Car radio 2.

He passed the bridge and is heading

towards Buckingham Palace. Over!

Here car radio 3. He's proceeding beyond the docks towards the West End.

The Times... The Times...

The Times... The Times...

�C'mon, go.

- Excuse me. - Yes.

Is it that way to Dandy Street?

Yes, you must still go ahead for a mile, then to the right.

Oh finally. It's half an hour that I've been searching.

- Thanks officer - No problem, Miss..

Sorry, I don't really know where this is. Would you mind accompanying me?

Please sir, Come with me.

Quick! He can attack! There.

Calling command. Ask for reinforcements, Hurry!

Let's go.

- Officer, Where's the man with the raincoat?

- In there! - Follow me.

Up there.

You two to the left. Wilson and others with me.

The door.

Come on, take this.

A mysterious escape: at the time of the execution.

Never happened.

Only KriminaI could escape as such.

It is time Scotland Yard did some explaining.

It seems as if he has already passed the Slip.

No, no! Impossible. We will definitely hear it from Milton...

This is crazy!

You let him get away from you, dressed as a sergeant.

Moreover a little more and you would have hanged this poor person.

Please accept my my dismissaI inspector.

Not as soon as they will have accepted mine, agent Wilson.

Yes, sir.

Consideryourselves all on the arrest.

- Miss Dickinson? - Yes...

Before making the press come in I beg you to

keep in mind what follows:

"First, I'm no longer inspector" "Second, I'm heading to India; third... "

Inspector Sorry to interrupt.

There is a parceI foryou.

Give it to my successor!

Fine, inspector. The cover letter, as well?

Naturally, Smith.

- Wait, Smith... What's in the package?

It's heavy, sir. Perhaps a television set.

- Let's see it! Have you understood, Miss Dickinson?

The photographers send them to hell!

It would have been fair saving my life in exchange of the crown...

Instead you wanted to recover the heirloom and send me to the gallows.

I have thought well to avoid this disagreeable solution.

As far as the crown, I'm giving it back intact.

Unfortunately I realized that it is not easily sellable,

Except forthe Monte dei Pegni without rancor, KriminaI.

In your place I would be good, Margie...

I hate complications.

You! What do you want from me?

- Haven't you read the papers... - Leave or I call the police!

It is rather difficult, don't you think? In your place I wouldn't do it!

Do you think it is worth it, Margie?

You have tried so hard to remain anonymous and now you would want...

Think about the papers: Margie Swan, former wife of KriminaI...

SensationaI! Enough!

Surely a beautifuI blow foryourfuture husband.

You are about to remarry a rich bastard, if I'm not mistaken!?

Leave me alone and go away!

Why? You're so gracefuI when you get angry...

I almost regret having divorced.

By the way, whatjob do you have now?. You used to likejewels once...

Well gentlemen, I'll get quickly to the point in orderto show you the relative plan

to the IstanbuI shipment of our diamonds

from you guaranteed for approximately a billion.

No need to say that there are only 4 people who are aware of this,

that is, the two elements that they will have to put into action,

I underwrite in quality from the president of Tradex

and my secretary, Miss Margie Swan,

of which I answer in person.

Margie, please, let Mrs. Inge in.

Is she one of yourtwo couriers?

Inge has been a Tradex collaborator for many years.

She will be the one to take thejewels to IstanbuI.

- Good morning! - Good morning!

Hi, dear!

Miss. Inge... Mr. MacEntire Williams, and

Mr. Zelaind from Lloyds who wanted to meet you.

- They know of your mission. - But Mrs...

A moment, excuse me. I haven't finished yet!

Now please let Miss. Trude in.

- Never seen anything similar... - An extraordinary likeness.

But they are identicaI... Incredible.

Miss. Trude... I met you before

in Madrid and I have quickly hired her for our operation.

In a way it was her who gave me the idea.

Thanks Trude. You may go.

- I think I understand! - I agree!

And you, Williams what do you think?

Then gentlemen...

I must convene that it is truly a brilliant plan.

Two couriers perfectly identicaI to one another.

And both of them will show up at the airport

and will leave for InstanbuI, but on different airplanes...

...and only one of them, Inge, will carry thejewels!

This way any attempt at robbery will be eliminated.

and your risk will diminish

Will all passengers of Trans World Airlines,

Please direct themselves to baggage claim C.

Excuse me Miss, Do you have a light?

- What's going on? - Are you OK!

- What's wrong? - I need help?

I'll get a doctor.

- You're breathing heavily, maybe your heart. - Wait...

What's the matter?

- I don't know Sergeant. She seems drugged up.

Let's take herto the infirmary!

- It's better if we advise Scotland Yard!

Of course.

Excuse me! Yes

Any news on the robbery?

on the diamonds commissioned at London's airport?

Meanwhile Lloyds has decided to pay Tradex

the insurance premium of 5000 pounds.

5000 pounds!? What would you do with all that money?

I would buy myself a young, handsome husband,

like that blond man there!

In the meantime the police investigations continue.

Inspector Milton of Scotland Yard has assumed the inquiry...

He has presently learned that Tradex,

in the person of the widow of the now deceased president Gold,

has begun the formalities for the insurance proceedings.

And now Sports. The latest Score results...

Don't always think about Tradex. Let's talk now.

No, no and no!

- I understand, you don't take me seriously. - Exactly, Max.

Fine, Be patient.

Scotch!

Martini dry. And the glass very iced.

- Max! The bracelet... - What?

You must be more carefuI, Mam.

It must have slipped off during the dance!

Probably...

- Thanks, Mister... - Stevens, Martin Stevens.

I can show you my gratitude,

with a glass of champagne? At my place!

But with pleasure, sure.

Dom Perignon 1957. To our meeting!

Wait a minute. First let's talk business.

I know exactly what kind of man you are!

How much?

Let's say 500 thousand pounds!

You'rejoking!

I neverjoke around when I do business, Lady Gold!

You have understood well. I have asked you for 500 thousand pounds...

Do you think to blackmaiI me, perhaps?

You see, I possess a small piece of information that could

be of interest to Lloyds of London.

Lloyds... Information? And what is it?

Simple. You try to pocket 500 thousand pounds

of insurance for a theft that in truth has never happened.

Ha, I say. Afterthey have have stolen...

...nothing! Except for an empty briefcase.

I know betterthan anyone else, because it is I who stole from you!

You!... an empty briefcase.! But it is absurd!

Inge has taken part in the theft and the briefcase contained...

Ajacket that was absolutely empty.

Unless... But no, it's impossible.

What seems impossible, Lady Gold? Speak up!

I think I understand. Trude! The false courier!

It cannot have been but you.

You must have switched at the last moment

your briefcase with Inge's that contained the diamonds...

Therefore I would have robbed the reaI courier, without diamonds.

But it does not end here. You will pay, that whore,

has cost me... - How much, Lady Gold?

I have a good proposaI.

You can help me recoverthejewels.

If we succeed to recoverthem,

I will not give anything back that the insurance has paid me.

will be yours.

I see that we finally begin to agree.

Then, we agree?

Forty percent... Hm, hm...!

At your expense...

Hi, Pintus. Is my mother in the villa?

Yes, Mr. Arthur. She arrived early this morning. With a host...

- A host? Fine, I understand. Thanks.

Motheryou could have warned me. I hate such situations.

Find an excuse and we can leave again.

Don't worry dear. I will say that you have papers to sign...

Leave the car. I leave again endured.

- Prepare us a drink. - The usuaI gin for me.

He is my son Arthur. He has a mania for surprises!

At the opportune moment.

- Hi mother! - Hello Arthur!

Good morning Lady Gold.

Mr. Stevens... My son...

...Margie Swan, my secretary and future daughter in-law...

- But... - Very pleased to meet you!

Something's wrong? You look a little pale.

It is nothing, Madam., I'm a little tired.

I have those documents that need to be signed.

I must check them out, I will sign them after. If you want to remain for breakfast?

By the way Arthur,

I want to show you my new gardenias.

Excuse Mr. Stevens.

Would you mind keeping Margie some company?

With pleasure madame.

Lost your voice, have you!

What are you doing here? What do you want!

I read some of your notes, the other night and I got an idea.

But Margie! A little young your future husband, don't you think?

Stop it!

Hello...? Get me Scotland Yard!

Hello? Yes, I would like to speak to inspector Milton...

Hello inspector. Don't ask who this is.

I need to speak to you urgently. It regards KriminaI.

OK. Then tomorrow... At your office.

Thanks.

Too much steam. Better lower it.

It is the only defect of this sauna! When my poor husband

had it constructed the externaI regulators still...

Tell me, was your husband Lord Abraham Gold.

How did he die? The newspapers spoke of it forever...

He killed himself.

There was an inquiry, true?

Yes, I got it over my head-fed up.

Tell me. Why did you trust Trude?

It was a risk I had to take.

Besides, she was introduced to me by a dearfriend, Baron GebeI.

We will leave tomorrowfor Madrid And take care of business with Trude...

But where are you? Where are you?

I'm suffocating! Open up! Open!

It's useless screaming like that. It's Sunday and the servants are gone.

After all you were about to get rid of me before my time

like poor Lord Gold.

IstanbuI...!

There you go. They will think cardiac arrest.

Goodbye Lady Gold. It has been an unforgettable weekend!

- Pass it on to the science department. - Good inspector.

Excuse me inspector. There is a phone company technician

who has work to do. - Fine, but tell him to hurry.

Urgent telegram.

- Good Morning. - Good Morning. Please be quick.

Sent a cable to Stockholm.

This message pass it to the Paris �s�curit�'.

I really don't think that KriminaI has been to Dieppe.

- I'm sure he's a lot closerthen we think.

Pass me the press clippings.

Thesejournalists! The usuaI bullshit.

Mrs. Swan's here, inspector.

- Good Morning. - Come in.

Good Morning. Please sit down.

- I'm a little late, inspector. - Please excuse me a minute.

Think about all the details, Miss Dickinson.

All right.

I have asked to see you due to a matter of urgency...

- Go ahead, I'm listening... - It concerns KriminaI.

- Great! - This I already knew! Good day!

If I understand correctly, you know KriminaI, Mrs. Swan?

I'm his ex-wife, inspector.

What! And you waited all this time to show up?

Yes...

Inspector, yourfianc�e...

- Hi Gloria! My dear. - Do you remember...

Of course I remember the appointment,

I remember it quite well. We had meet at six.

- And, then... - What do you mean �and then?' It's five!

You'rejoking! It's already 6:15.

Hello... Hello?

Damn!

Mrs., come on,... Inspector!

KriminaI!

- Here, please, what would you like? - A scotch, please!

It was a lovely party. We must thank Trude.

An exquisite hospitality. C'mon. Let's go.

What, you're leaving already?

- Goodnight Trude. Thanks. - Goodnight.

Louis, but... You're going!

- It's late, dear. - Sorry.

- Did you have fun? - Mucho senora! Mucha gracias!

Hi love. Goodnight.

You're leaving too? Buenas noche!

- Close the buffet as well, Ren�. - Yes, mademoiselle Trude!

Oh, RafaeI...! Please! Not now...

Who are you? What's with the mask? What do you want from me?

You...? It's you!? Now I remember.

Yes, the cigarettejoke... You stole my briefcase!

So it was you and not Inge that I attacked!? That old maiden lied!

It would have been worth it If she died only forthis.

How much did Lady Gold give you?

Speak! Speak!

Yes, yes, I will tell you all! We were all three in agreement.

Inge and I are twins.

Lady Gold's lover, Alex, had planned the whole thing

in orderto swindle the insurance.

I had to change my empty briefcase with that of Inge, after...

...after passing through customs.

- Inge would then have pretended to have been robbed...

But the unexpected! happened! Me!

Therefore you changed plans. You assumed Inge's identity,

denouncing the theft falsely and she brought the diamonds to safety.

That's right, that flight ticket to InstanbuI.

It is clearthat Lady Gold was preparing to catch up with Inge

and herfriend Alex quickly cashing in the insurance premium.

After sending me to keep your late lamented husband company!

Thanks.

- ... To where, sir? - InstanbuI!

You excuse to me, but the date of the approvaI is illegible.

Please attend. to a simple formality.

Here, here gentlemen, I pray.

Your personaI airplane is ready, your highness.

I left without notice. I do not have an arrest warrant.

B.E.A. announces the arrivaI of flight 315 from Paris.

Will all passengers please present themselves at gate 5...

This time he can't get away. I ask you to controI

the exact identity of all suspicious passengers.

Wait... like that, thanks.

Your highness, please. have the courtesy to follow me?

KriminaI has 24 hours advantage, but... he has to pass this way.

Enough disperse immediately to block him & he'll be trapped.

Attention!

Last call for Iberia flight 707 for IstanbuI!

Those who are late please hurry to exit number 2.

- Thank You! - Pleasure.

Excuse me, lieutenant... An irregular approvaI.

It's him! Quickly! Block all exits.

Delay all departure flights. This time we got him...

Attention! For emergency reasons,

all departure flights will be delayed by an hour.

KriminaI! Whereveryou're hiding you're a bird in a cage...

Your criminaI flight is over... Over! You understand?

I followed the �chemin' exchange on the table a moment ago...

You have cold blood! But please... Would you like to sit down!

- The Mrs.? - In the office! With a customer.

- Send these chips to the cash. - Ok, Monsieur Alex.

And now, please tell me messieur...

BeautifuI! A copy of optimaI quality.

Great. The only ones that interest me. I would want to sell it.

I'm the son of Erik Boss.

The famous Rotterdam jeweler?

Amsterdam! I have lost a lot and I would not want my father... Here...

Wilhelm Boss...

I'm sorry, but unfortunately like a simple employee of the Club

I cannot possibly take care of such a transaction.

Fine! And as a woman?

As woman I do not have the habit of accepting diamonds, Mr. Boss...

Forget about it!

Hello... Is it noon already, Alex? You woke me up on my best moment...

You know, I was dreaming.

Sorry. Tell me... that friend of yours...

Yes, that one of the diamond, where did you meet him?

But you woke me up Just forthat?

Yesterday evening, at the Club. Why do you ask?

Listen to me well... The diamond...

I know what he said...

He telephoned to tell you...

...that the diamond I gave you yesterday evening was false.

I do not understand you.

If you wanted to swindle me, Why be so banaI?

If I had intended to swindle you, I would have had diamonds.

Look!

Here, all fakes!

You know, when I like a woman,

I must also find a reasonable way to approach her.

And since I'm Wilhelm Boss... this system always works.

You see, unfortunately my father, doesn't give me much money.

Are you listening?

Sure. You're a man of surprises.

But tell me, are you nuts?

It's fun... Extraordinary! Just think...

I could have the equivalent of your false diamonds with true stones!

Listen, You're taking me for a fooI?

No, it's not at all my intention.

And where can we find this lucky loot?

At the NationaI Bank.

You want to empty it?

No need, dear.

Listen, Wilhelm, if you really desire me as you say,

there is a way to leave here free and rich. The two of us.

How?.

Alex guards the diamonds in a safe deposit box.

It is registered to both our names, but only he holds the key.

It isjust a question of timing

To replace the true stones with your pieces of glass,

afterthat... with your acquaintances... It will be easy to sell the diamonds.

- How will you succeed in getting the key? - Don't worry.

And you think that this Alex will allow himself to be fooled so easily?

When he notices the exchange we'll already be in the Bahamas.

But, you're truly a little criminaI.

Idea. In these parties end up tanned even...

Hello Margaret. Shall we have a drink?

At Ankara I tried to find Frankie.

- Who, Frankie!? - Yes, you remember him?

Aformidable type, I thought you knew him.

I'll introduce you to him... Cheers...

Here Lula! Double scotch.

Who is that blond man? I've never seen him.

A Mr. Boss. Jewels. Inge invited him.

Hay! Excuse me... but have we met before?

And would I have forgotten?

- London, three months ago... - London?

- ColoneI Watt's party! - No, I hate colonels.

But yes,, Polly's puppy had scared you...

Maybe dear. Let's talk about it anothertime.

Excuse me a moment, Jo...

It is useless looking.

My dear do you think me that naive!

You don't think that I...

If it weren't so long that you neglected me,

you would have known that the key has changed place.

Stop being sojealous Alex.

The truth is that it's been a while that we are both a little nervous.

Forgive me!

- Excuse me Sir! - Yes.

Mr. Gandur is here...

Tell me Mr. Gandur!

Well yes! I have followed your instructions, but I don't know if...

Go on.

OK, here it is Mr. Alex!

Good work Gandur!

It is an ingenious system. You know it'sjust a...

Avoid the technicalities, Please. They don't interest me.

Rather get yourself busy and get me more proof.

Yes sir. I will give you news As soon as possible.

Thanks, thank you sir.

Intercept him, go!

Hey!

GO.

Don't get too tired my dear. The trip to the gallows is long.

Atrip that you will not succeed in making me finish.

Is it ok if I get up?

I hope that you will want to excuse me. I don't even know how it happened.

Afoolish incident!

Excuse me, it was me that asked you to be here, commissioner.

I'm inspector Milton, Scotland Yard...

Please arrest this man.

It is KriminaI, a dangerous bandit wanted by InterpoI.

- What! Are you sure? - I have no doubts!

Wait!

I don't this man, but surely he is crazy.

Observe him well.

Yes, the moustache, the high forehead, the spirited eye.

Watch the ID-kit...

If that is the face of KriminaI, He is KriminaI!

But commissioner. Don't listen to these crazy words!

Mad? Everyone knows who I am, I have a regular passport.

- Enough! - Let him speak.

It is not the first time that a scoundreI identifies himself

as police inspector with the goaI of swindling a millionaire...

It also happened in Monte Carlo a month ago.

- You don't believe this... - Listen...

I do not doubt your identity, but you understand!

It is incredible. Absurd! Do you know what this can cost you?

15 years of garrison in India!

Arrest both of them!

What? The chief of police

is out forthe weekend? Call Minister Perdiana!

I can't wait untiI Monday. Damned!

- Calm yourself. And have the goodness to wait in the other room.

Make him come in!

Ahead.

Mr. Wilhelm Boss, tell me, How's your uncle Joannes?

I only have one uncle, sir and he's called CarI Theodor.

He's been in the diplomatic service for 30 years.

In fact we have spent a lot of time together at the Tokyo legation.

When you see him, greet him on behalf of Bergen.

Commissioner, as you have seen there are no doubts...

Sure, thanks and excuse me to Mr. ConsuI.

It's nothing. Good bye.

A disagreeable misunderstanding, Mr. Boss. I hope you can excuse me.

No worries commissioner. Rather, pay attention to the crazy one.

- Good morning! - Good morning.

OK Gandur. We'll see each othertomorrow.

What's wrong, Raus? Good!

To the doghouse, Raus!

No one's answering.

Well, I would begin, Madame.

I do not understand. Alex is always punctuaI.

You take his place. Please...

Mesdames and monsieurs...

Hello. Hold on. Madame it's foryou.

Hello? What? An accident in the face?

Here, take this.

I have followed your instructions, all speak about the accident.

Well.

As far as I know it surely wasn't a ghost that attacked me.

Moreover I had the liquid analyzed contained in the can...

Quiet...

And I too do not think it was a ghost

that replace your aftershave with vitrioI!

This is why I wish that the police does not get mixed up in this.

As you wish. After all it's you that pays.

You knowthe saying: "an eye for an eye".

You want to say...

He will pay dear, be sure of it!

Other orders?

There's something you gotta do...

- We'll talk about it. Come back tomorrow. - OK.

Hello.

Hello. Listen Alex, I'm a friend.

If you want to avoid trouble go quickly to the chalet.

Your Inge and the Dutchman are playing you a dirty trick.

- But, but who are you? - It doesn't matter.

Follow my advice. Run to the chalet.

Who's speaking? Hello. hello...

Good morning. Well then did you succeed?

- Sure mam! - Well. Can I have it now?.

Here! It has been a difficultjob.

Thanks.

Oh Frank, dear!

I can wait an y longer Inge! To see to you always secretly!

We won't have more to wait. I have the duplicate key...

Is it him, the Dutchman...?

We will meet in an hour. He has already delivered the

false diamonds and we will go togetherto the Bank.

It will be a cinch.

The safety deposit box is also in my name, I can open it.

The hard stuff will come later. Nevertheless we must do it.

We will make it, you'll see. Take this. Ok! Continue...

He plans on passing the border by car right afterthe hit.

You wait at the first moteI along the freeway and be very carefuI.

I will find a way of inducing him at a short break...

...the rest I'll take care of!

If all goes smoothly, tonight we will be in Beirut together.

With a bag of money!

Alex!

This anonymous telephone call is rather strange, Murad.

Sure, it is true.

The clinic has confirmed that Alex ha disappeared!

It remains to see what we'll find in the indicated place.

Wilhelm! As you can see I am most punctuaI!

Wilhelm?

Why, why?

Oh my God!

But why did he do this! He disfigured him.

Mr. Alex... Mr. Alex, excuse me...

I havejust read of your accident! How have you been?

It's nothing. Don't worry about it.

The papers say that...

You still believe what the newspapers write?

Right... the usuaI exaggerations. Well.

How can we help you?

Aformality.

I must take a quick look at the safe deposit box.

I'm sorry but we don't allow deposits

of high value on Mondays.

Are you OK?

Sorry.

Could you not make an exception?

It is a favorthat I ask of you.

- Accompany him! - Please sir.

Listen, in 5 minutes the bank manager gets back.

Please hurry, otherwise he'll stop the transaction.

Thanks!

Hi dear Alex.

If I hadn't seen your picture, I almost would not have recognized you...

Tell me...

Have you decided to give me an answerforthat transaction?

Sorry but I'm late!

Wait. What's wrong with you today? You're acting kind of strange.

ManueI...

I said that I'd like an answer. Yes or no?

ManueI I beg you, Hurry, let's go.

Swell. I'll give you untiI nine tonight, Alex.

Afterthat you risk an other accident

and much more serious, I assure you.

Good bye. Here I am dear.

Excuse me, I�II be back right away.

Already done, sir? Please.

I would swearthat behind all of this is that sly dog, KriminaI!

KriminaI?

The photographs Murad... I want those photos, damn it!

Here's the blowups. They are clear enough...

I was right, KriminaI! Look!
