00:00:21,264 --> 00:00:23,645
STARTING WITH A RELATIVELY SIMPLE IDEA,
2
00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:28,349
KAFKA PLUNGES US IN AN INCOHERENT,
ABSURD AND SURREAL WORLD.
3
00:00:28,411 --> 00:00:30,716
THE IDEA IS THIS:
4
00:00:30,755 --> 00:00:34,427
BUREAUCRATS, THE SYSTEM OF ADMINISTRATION
AND ITS POWER TO CRUSH THE INDIVIDUAL.
5
00:00:34,450 --> 00:00:37,481
THE INDIVIDUAL BECOMES A
CHOKING VICTIM OF SOCIETY
6
00:00:37,513 --> 00:00:40,052
WHEN BY CHANCE ~ OR MISFORTUNE ~
7
00:00:40,091 --> 00:00:43,302
HE IS DRAWN TOWARDS THE GEAR OF ITS SYSTEM.
8
00:00:43,333 --> 00:00:48,848
FROM AN ARTICLE BY MR.
LOUIS CHAUVET (THE FIGARO)
9
00:00:55,053 --> 00:01:13,248
THE TRIAL
10
00:01:51,198 --> 00:01:52,975
Before the law
11
00:01:53,695 --> 00:01:55,626
there stands a guard.
12
00:01:57,271 --> 00:01:59,980
A man comes from the country.
13
00:02:00,106 --> 00:02:02,416
Begging admittance to the law.
14
00:02:03,082 --> 00:02:05,547
But the guard cannot admit him.
15
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,862
"Can he hope to enter at a later time?"
16
00:02:09,165 --> 00:02:11,255
"That is possible", says the guard.
17
00:02:11,535 --> 00:02:13,686
The man tries to peer
through the entrance.
18
00:02:13,811 --> 00:02:18,271
He had been taught that the law
should be accessible to every man.
19
00:02:18,836 --> 00:02:23,184
"Do not attempt to enter without
my permission" says the guard.
20
00:02:23,309 --> 00:02:26,903
"I am very powerful,
yet I am the least of all the guards.
21
00:02:27,027 --> 00:02:28,252
"From hall to hall,
22
00:02:28,592 --> 00:02:30,076
"door after door,
23
00:02:30,201 --> 00:02:33,307
"each guard is more powerful
than the last."
24
00:02:34,704 --> 00:02:37,523
By the guard's permission the man
sits down by the side of the door
25
00:02:37,648 --> 00:02:39,218
and there he waits.
26
00:02:43,246 --> 00:02:44,499
For years
27
00:02:44,624 --> 00:02:45,721
he waits.
28
00:02:47,904 --> 00:02:50,647
Everything he has
he gives away...
29
00:02:50,771 --> 00:02:53,316
in the hope of bribing the guard
30
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,911
who never fails to say to him,
"I take what you give me...
31
00:02:56,037 --> 00:02:59,837
only so that you will not feel that
you have left something undone."
32
00:03:01,083 --> 00:03:03,829
Keeping his watch during the long years
33
00:03:03,954 --> 00:03:06,297
the man has learnt to
know even the fleas
34
00:03:06,423 --> 00:03:08,362
and the guard's fur collar.
35
00:03:09,403 --> 00:03:12,857
And growing childish in old age
36
00:03:12,982 --> 00:03:16,746
he begged the vilid fleas to persuade
the guard to change his mind
37
00:03:16,871 --> 00:03:18,227
and allow him to enter.
38
00:03:18,353 --> 00:03:22,302
His sight is dimmed but in the
darkness he perceives a radiance
39
00:03:22,427 --> 00:03:25,369
streaming immortally
from the door of the law.
40
00:03:25,494 --> 00:03:26,456
And now
41
00:03:26,581 --> 00:03:28,102
before he dies...
42
00:03:28,227 --> 00:03:30,875
all his experience condenses
into one question,
43
00:03:31,001 --> 00:03:32,346
a question he has never asked.
44
00:03:32,470 --> 00:03:33,742
He beckons to the guard.
45
00:03:34,179 --> 00:03:37,155
Says the guard, "You are insatiable,
what is it now?"
46
00:03:37,873 --> 00:03:39,899
Says the man, "Every man...
47
00:03:40,024 --> 00:03:42,549
"strives to attain the law.
48
00:03:43,031 --> 00:03:44,545
"How is it then...
49
00:03:44,669 --> 00:03:48,325
"that in all these years no one
else has ever come here...
50
00:03:48,449 --> 00:03:49,812
"seeking admittance?"
51
00:03:51,991 --> 00:03:55,460
His hearing has failed,
so the guard yells into his ear
52
00:03:55,585 --> 00:03:58,402
"No one else but you could have
ever of obtained admittance.
53
00:03:58,842 --> 00:04:01,543
"No one else could enter this door...
54
00:04:01,668 --> 00:04:03,295
"this door
55
00:04:03,419 --> 00:04:05,031
"was intended
56
00:04:05,155 --> 00:04:07,208
"only for you.
57
00:04:08,744 --> 00:04:10,434
"And now...
58
00:04:10,558 --> 00:04:12,610
"I'm going to close it."
59
00:04:20,943 --> 00:04:25,464
This tale is told during
the story called The Trial.
60
00:04:27,997 --> 00:04:32,108
It has been said that the
logic of this story...
61
00:04:32,233 --> 00:04:34,486
is the logic of a dream
62
00:04:35,923 --> 00:04:37,143
and a nightmare.
63
00:05:04,948 --> 00:05:06,409
Miss Burstner?
64
00:05:13,943 --> 00:05:15,863
You were expecting Miss Burstner?
65
00:05:16,238 --> 00:05:20,658
Why no... No, what an
idea, of course not.
66
00:05:21,436 --> 00:05:23,192
You spoke here name just now.
67
00:05:24,841 --> 00:05:25,203
When?
68
00:05:25,327 --> 00:05:27,798
When I came in, you addressed
me as Miss Burstner.
69
00:05:27,922 --> 00:05:30,867
Well that's her room
you know uh...
70
00:05:31,348 --> 00:05:34,397
What are you doing in there?
Well, who are you?
71
00:05:34,522 --> 00:05:35,382
What are you doing in here?
72
00:05:35,507 --> 00:05:37,842
Miss Burstner frequently comes through
that door in the middle of the night?
73
00:05:37,967 --> 00:05:40,134
Frequently? No! Never. Never!
74
00:05:40,777 --> 00:05:44,265
That door is kept permanently locked.
Mrs. Grubach keeps the key.
75
00:05:44,390 --> 00:05:46,176
Just ask her.
76
00:05:46,302 --> 00:05:47,548
Where is she?
Does she know about you?
77
00:05:47,672 --> 00:05:48,517
Mrs. Grubach.
78
00:05:48,852 --> 00:05:51,520
You were expecting Mrs. Grubach?
79
00:05:51,646 --> 00:05:53,425
No, no I'm...
80
00:05:54,164 --> 00:05:55,153
Not expecting anybody,
least of all you,
81
00:05:55,278 --> 00:05:56,494
whoever the hell you are.
82
00:05:56,620 --> 00:05:57,740
Where you going?
83
00:05:58,261 --> 00:05:59,519
Well I...
84
00:05:59,644 --> 00:06:02,251
think that Mrs. Grubach would like
to know that there are...
85
00:06:02,377 --> 00:06:04,737
strange people wandering around her
apartment in the middle of the night.
86
00:06:04,862 --> 00:06:07,686
You were starting in that direction
that's Mrs. Burstner's room.
87
00:06:07,810 --> 00:06:09,488
- Isn't that what you told me?
- Yes it is and...
88
00:06:09,613 --> 00:06:11,068
I would very much like to know
what's going on in there.
89
00:06:11,193 --> 00:06:13,029
She isn't there now
90
00:06:13,154 --> 00:06:15,882
Well that's not so
very surprising. She...
91
00:06:16,907 --> 00:06:19,987
She gets in late sometimes,
very late. Very late indeed.
92
00:06:21,803 --> 00:06:23,871
You are the police?
93
00:06:23,996 --> 00:06:27,061
- She gets in very late?
- Look, don't go jumping to conclusions.
94
00:06:27,185 --> 00:06:28,979
- What conclusions?
- Well the hours...
95
00:06:29,104 --> 00:06:31,432
they keep in her nightclub
are no fault of Mrs. Burstner's.
96
00:06:31,556 --> 00:06:33,767
Look, she'll be home any minute now
and I'm sure she'll be able to answer...
97
00:06:33,892 --> 00:06:35,344
your questions for herself.
98
00:06:37,589 --> 00:06:38,192
You are the police?
99
00:06:38,317 --> 00:06:40,872
What makes you think we want
to ask questions of her?
100
00:06:41,464 --> 00:06:44,691
Well I have no opinion
of it one way or another.
101
00:06:44,815 --> 00:06:48,450
It's nothing to do with me,
I scarcely know this person.
102
00:06:48,575 --> 00:06:50,734
Of course we are fellow lodgers...
103
00:06:50,858 --> 00:06:52,393
but that's obvious.
104
00:06:52,518 --> 00:06:55,355
Is she in some kind of trouble?
105
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,642
What kind of trouble?
106
00:06:56,768 --> 00:06:59,024
Do you imagine we came
here to see Mrs. Burstner?
107
00:07:00,155 --> 00:07:03,510
Well you certainly didn't
come here to see me.
108
00:07:03,636 --> 00:07:04,246
Did you?
109
00:07:07,831 --> 00:07:12,182
Well listen you don't deny anything
or affirm anything. You just
110
00:07:12,307 --> 00:07:16,154
stand there and stare at me in the
middle of my private bedroom at...
111
00:07:16,279 --> 00:07:17,970
6:14 in the morning.
112
00:07:18,910 --> 00:07:21,323
I don't see why I should
put up with it.
113
00:07:21,448 --> 00:07:24,331
You haven't even identified yourself
or show me your papers.
114
00:07:24,456 --> 00:07:26,485
- Isn't that for you to do?
- Oh no, my papers, excuse me,
115
00:07:26,610 --> 00:07:28,376
my papers are in perfect order.
116
00:07:29,175 --> 00:07:30,553
Here, see for yourself.
117
00:07:31,739 --> 00:07:33,889
Why don't you finish getting dressed?
118
00:07:35,445 --> 00:07:37,337
For your information
I am a man of...
119
00:07:37,464 --> 00:07:40,870
regular habits and getting dressed
at 6:15 in the morning doesn't
120
00:07:40,995 --> 00:07:42,145
happen to be one of them.
121
00:07:42,269 --> 00:07:46,712
Still, I don't suppose there is any
hope of getting any more sleep.
122
00:07:47,330 --> 00:07:49,522
Where are you going?
123
00:07:50,350 --> 00:07:53,306
I take a bath in the morning
if you must know.
124
00:07:53,431 --> 00:07:53,970
Why?
125
00:07:54,096 --> 00:07:56,211
If you were reluctant to
dress in front of me...
126
00:07:56,336 --> 00:07:57,769
And I dress in the bathroom.
127
00:07:57,894 --> 00:07:59,058
Huh?
128
00:07:59,183 --> 00:07:59,940
Yes.
129
00:08:00,902 --> 00:08:01,649
Why?
130
00:08:01,774 --> 00:08:03,387
Well it's warm in the bathroom...
131
00:08:03,511 --> 00:08:06,402
and it's cold in the hall.
Any more questions?
132
00:08:07,497 --> 00:08:09,320
Why would you want
to dress in the hall?
133
00:08:09,446 --> 00:08:10,522
Stay here.
134
00:08:10,849 --> 00:08:12,415
Why would you want to get
dressed out in the hall?
135
00:08:12,541 --> 00:08:13,797
I don't. I don't...
136
00:08:14,857 --> 00:08:15,626
but...
137
00:08:15,750 --> 00:08:20,451
If I did not get dressed in the bathroom
after I finished my bath, I'd be...
138
00:08:20,577 --> 00:08:23,119
obliged to walk down the drafty hall,
in my silk dressing room
139
00:08:23,245 --> 00:08:24,785
right after getting, after...
140
00:08:25,273 --> 00:08:26,989
out of a warm tub.
141
00:08:27,115 --> 00:08:28,365
I hope you understand.
142
00:08:29,376 --> 00:08:31,225
- You said you wanted to get dressed in the hall.
- No, no.
143
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:32,580
- Did you?
- No.
144
00:08:33,155 --> 00:08:34,707
Okay, have it your way mister.
145
00:08:34,833 --> 00:08:36,663
But what do you want to get all
dressed up for anyway?
146
00:08:36,787 --> 00:08:39,348
You're not going nowhere,
you're under arrest.
147
00:08:43,188 --> 00:08:45,286
You're making a formal charge?
148
00:08:45,411 --> 00:08:47,314
Oh, I couldn't do that, mister.
149
00:08:47,932 --> 00:08:49,684
Just exactly what is it
I'm charged with?
150
00:08:49,810 --> 00:08:51,119
You'll have to take that
up with the inspector.
151
00:08:51,244 --> 00:08:53,186
- Proceedings having been...
- That was the inspector who just left.
152
00:08:53,310 --> 00:08:55,982
...you until called for interrogation.
153
00:08:56,106 --> 00:08:57,423
You were retired to your room.
154
00:08:57,548 --> 00:08:58,607
- I'm in my room.
- Huh?
155
00:08:58,733 --> 00:09:00,242
- I'm in my room.
- I can't help that, mister.
156
00:09:00,366 --> 00:09:01,995
You got a lot of real
nice shirts here, mister.
157
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,025
- Leave those shirts alone.
- Know something?
158
00:09:04,632 --> 00:09:06,685
You do a whole lot better
givin' them things to us.
159
00:09:06,810 --> 00:09:10,096
After they're impounded officially and
carted off to headquarters you won't
160
00:09:10,220 --> 00:09:11,350
know what happens to them shirts.
161
00:09:11,475 --> 00:09:13,995
There's every kind of crook and
bribery in them public auctions.
162
00:09:14,108 --> 00:09:15,443
- Now we're your friends
- Sure we are you...
163
00:09:15,568 --> 00:09:18,104
oughta give us some of
them shirts at least.
164
00:09:19,061 --> 00:09:20,978
Well it could be a joke, I suppose.
165
00:09:21,746 --> 00:09:23,985
Elaborate practical joke by some
of my friends in the office.
166
00:09:24,112 --> 00:09:25,107
They're in there.
167
00:09:25,804 --> 00:09:26,852
Who's in there?
168
00:09:32,460 --> 00:09:33,477
You're from my office.
169
00:09:35,718 --> 00:09:37,009
Who brought you here?
170
00:09:38,746 --> 00:09:39,882
The police?
171
00:09:40,900 --> 00:09:42,439
These clerks from my office,
172
00:09:42,565 --> 00:09:43,412
what do they got to do with it?
173
00:09:43,538 --> 00:09:46,696
Rebenstein, Culy y Caminer right?
174
00:09:46,821 --> 00:09:48,049
What's this?
175
00:09:48,174 --> 00:09:50,289
That's her mother she
was in the profession.
176
00:09:50,414 --> 00:09:51,646
- Leave her things alone.
- Cannabis?
177
00:09:51,771 --> 00:09:53,168
You especially.
178
00:09:54,551 --> 00:09:57,349
Rebenstein, what are
you doing here?
179
00:09:57,474 --> 00:10:00,112
The inspector said he thought it
would be sorta more unabusive if
180
00:10:00,237 --> 00:10:02,905
they went with you to the
office so nobody would notice
181
00:10:03,030 --> 00:10:06,285
Unobtrusive is the word you're
looking for not unabusive.
182
00:10:06,409 --> 00:10:07,966
How can I got to the office
if I'm under arrest?
183
00:10:08,091 --> 00:10:10,473
That don't need to keep you
from working, not at this stage.
184
00:10:10,598 --> 00:10:11,447
He...
185
00:10:11,572 --> 00:10:14,703
- He said I have to stay in my room.
- He was reading the wrong page.
186
00:10:18,576 --> 00:10:21,177
Well this obviously isn't anything
of any importance.
187
00:10:23,176 --> 00:10:25,107
Quite honestly, I can't remember...
188
00:10:25,233 --> 00:10:27,923
a single offence that could
be charged against me.
189
00:10:29,219 --> 00:10:32,511
It's obviously a mistake,
something very trivial.
190
00:10:38,815 --> 00:10:40,491
What the real question is...
191
00:10:41,964 --> 00:10:43,188
who accuses me?
192
00:10:44,639 --> 00:10:45,431
- Well...
- What do you mean?
193
00:10:45,557 --> 00:10:48,055
- What authority...
- Don't you worry about that mister.
194
00:10:49,703 --> 00:10:51,730
I'm sorry to disappoint you but...
195
00:10:51,856 --> 00:10:55,172
I'm afraid you won't find any
subversive literature or pornography.
196
00:10:55,296 --> 00:10:56,726
Don't touch those record albums.
197
00:10:56,851 --> 00:10:58,026
What's this thing?
198
00:10:58,149 --> 00:10:59,721
That's my pornograph.
199
00:10:59,846 --> 00:11:01,914
- ...my phonograph
- What's this?
200
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:02,759
What's what?
201
00:11:02,884 --> 00:11:06,126
A circular line with four holes.
202
00:11:06,251 --> 00:11:07,251
- Circular.
- No, it's not
203
00:11:07,295 --> 00:11:08,884
really circular
it's more ovular.
204
00:11:09,008 --> 00:11:11,041
Don't write that down
for god's sake.
205
00:11:11,167 --> 00:11:12,781
- Why not?
- Ovular...
206
00:11:12,905 --> 00:11:15,305
We can't not write it down just
because you say we shouldn't.
207
00:11:15,405 --> 00:11:16,591
Ovular isn't even a word.
208
00:11:16,716 --> 00:11:18,115
You deny that there is
an ovular shape...
209
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:19,292
concealed under this rug?
210
00:11:19,416 --> 00:11:20,638
He denies everything.
211
00:11:20,763 --> 00:11:23,133
Mrs. Grubach's husband
was a dentist.
212
00:11:23,569 --> 00:11:27,026
Oh, there she is now.
Mrs. Grubach? Mrs. Grubach?
213
00:11:28,921 --> 00:11:30,469
This was Dr. Grubach's office.
214
00:11:30,593 --> 00:11:32,237
That don't matter she
can't come in here.
215
00:11:32,363 --> 00:11:35,568
That dental chair was screwed to
these four places in the floor.
216
00:11:37,246 --> 00:11:38,868
You want some good
advice, mister?
217
00:11:38,993 --> 00:11:39,525
Well...
218
00:11:39,651 --> 00:11:41,042
I wouldn't want the others
to hear about it.
219
00:11:41,168 --> 00:11:42,778
Oh now you want money I suppose.
220
00:11:42,903 --> 00:11:44,103
Well you've got the wrong man.
221
00:11:44,209 --> 00:11:45,209
That's what they all say.
222
00:11:45,244 --> 00:11:47,084
I mean bribery, I don't
happen to believe in it.
223
00:11:47,106 --> 00:11:50,065
No, wait a minute have I asked you
to give me anything sir? Mister?
224
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:52,370
- We're leaving mister.
- You not gonna be...
225
00:11:52,495 --> 00:11:55,145
one of them troublemakers,
now are you?
226
00:11:56,271 --> 00:11:58,653
- Mrs. Grubach.
- Good morning Mr. K.
227
00:11:58,779 --> 00:11:59,939
I've got your breakfast ready.
228
00:11:59,978 --> 00:12:01,488
Listen, mam, I wish
you'd tell him...
229
00:12:01,613 --> 00:12:04,149
he really doesn't think
that he's guilty,
230
00:12:04,274 --> 00:12:06,539
and he should keep it to himself,
you see what I mean?
231
00:12:06,665 --> 00:12:10,669
In this stage of the game this kinda
thing makes a very lousy impression.
232
00:12:25,597 --> 00:12:27,208
I'm afraid I owe you an
apology, Mrs. Grubach.
233
00:12:27,333 --> 00:12:28,616
Oh no, Mr. K.
234
00:12:34,791 --> 00:12:37,386
This is not gonna happen again,
I can promise you that.
235
00:12:37,944 --> 00:12:40,715
A lot of things happen
in this world, Mr. K.
236
00:12:40,839 --> 00:12:42,078
Yes.
237
00:12:42,204 --> 00:12:45,648
You're my most
valued lodger, Mr. K.
238
00:12:46,861 --> 00:12:48,847
I think I owe it
to you to be frank.
239
00:12:48,973 --> 00:12:51,376
- Yes, by all means.
- You're all good I'm thinking of...
240
00:12:51,501 --> 00:12:53,509
and I really have that at heart,
241
00:12:53,634 --> 00:12:58,032
perhaps more than I should.
After all I'm only your landlady.
242
00:12:59,654 --> 00:13:04,436
Well, I managed to have a few
words alone with that inspector.
243
00:13:04,562 --> 00:13:05,607
And?
244
00:13:05,732 --> 00:13:09,020
It seems you are
under arrest, Mr. K.
245
00:13:09,144 --> 00:13:10,333
Yes, I know that.
246
00:13:10,455 --> 00:13:12,595
But not the way a thief's
put under arrest.
247
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:13,851
- No.
- No.
248
00:13:13,976 --> 00:13:15,529
No, with your arrest...
249
00:13:15,654 --> 00:13:19,530
I get the feeling of something abstract,
if you see what I mean?
250
00:13:19,656 --> 00:13:21,913
It's so abstract I can't even
consider that it applies to me.
251
00:13:22,038 --> 00:13:23,912
Of course not, Mr. K.
252
00:13:24,038 --> 00:13:25,921
Aren't you going to eat something?
253
00:13:26,045 --> 00:13:30,937
Two men coming into my room the way
they did, well I simply wasn't prepared.
254
00:13:31,062 --> 00:13:34,557
Now in the office, for instance,
I'm always prepared.
255
00:13:34,682 --> 00:13:37,996
You can't just crash in on me there,
I should say not. People sometimes
256
00:13:38,121 --> 00:13:40,709
have to wait for weeks before they can
even get in to where they can speak,
257
00:13:40,835 --> 00:13:42,447
and my secretary...
258
00:13:42,572 --> 00:13:44,229
No, my mistake
259
00:13:44,354 --> 00:13:48,272
was letting them start in on me
before I even have a cup of coffee.
260
00:13:48,397 --> 00:13:51,237
Coffee is always ready
on the stove, Mr. K.
261
00:13:51,362 --> 00:13:53,653
I keep it there
for Miss Burstner.
262
00:13:53,778 --> 00:13:57,801
When she gets in from work,
such ungodly hours she keeps.
263
00:13:57,925 --> 00:14:00,728
- Well, that's her profession.
- I suppose so.
264
00:14:01,218 --> 00:14:03,979
The hours they keep in that nightclub
are no fault of Miss Burstner's.
265
00:14:04,059 --> 00:14:08,806
Perhaps not. Do you think I ought
to offer those men some coffee?
266
00:14:09,494 --> 00:14:10,499
What men?
267
00:14:10,624 --> 00:14:13,617
The ones from your office,
they're still in there.
268
00:14:13,741 --> 00:14:15,188
In Mrs. Burstner's bedroom?
269
00:14:18,126 --> 00:14:19,402
My God I thought you'd left.
270
00:14:19,527 --> 00:14:20,321
What are you doing here?
271
00:14:20,446 --> 00:14:23,617
Culy, Caminar...
272
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:24,664
Rebenstein.
273
00:14:24,788 --> 00:14:26,384
Put those pictures back
where you found them.
274
00:14:26,509 --> 00:14:29,530
- Here's some coffee for the gentlemen.
- No, Mrs. Grubach...
275
00:14:29,657 --> 00:14:31,174
these people are not
friends of mine.
276
00:14:31,299 --> 00:14:32,761
They came with the police and they
should have left with the police.
277
00:14:32,885 --> 00:14:34,380
Please be good enough to
show them to the door.
278
00:14:34,504 --> 00:14:36,756
Yes, Mr. K. This way, gentlemen.
279
00:14:37,383 --> 00:14:39,722
What are you anyway, informers?
280
00:14:43,125 --> 00:14:44,975
What do you have to inform about?
281
00:14:49,903 --> 00:14:51,149
And you're still here.
282
00:14:51,272 --> 00:14:54,149
You're attracting attention, Mr. K.
283
00:14:55,355 --> 00:14:57,136
Attracting attention...
284
00:14:57,261 --> 00:15:00,462
I'd appreciate the return of my
identification papers, please.
285
00:15:00,587 --> 00:15:03,704
You seriously think that we
don't know who you are.
286
00:15:03,829 --> 00:15:07,419
Really, Mr. K. you're not doing
your case any good you know.
287
00:15:07,543 --> 00:15:09,459
Exactly what is this case
you've been talking about?
288
00:15:09,583 --> 00:15:10,922
I'm not talking about it.
289
00:15:11,047 --> 00:15:13,280
Well why not?
Why don't you talk about it?
290
00:15:13,405 --> 00:15:14,455
What am I charged with?
291
00:15:14,579 --> 00:15:16,713
Not for me to talk
about your case.
292
00:15:16,838 --> 00:15:17,988
Inspector...
293
00:15:18,113 --> 00:15:19,160
Yes?
294
00:15:22,348 --> 00:15:24,319
What's the charge?
295
00:15:24,444 --> 00:15:28,644
Mr. K, you aren't claiming
innocence are you?
296
00:15:29,746 --> 00:15:31,002
Naturally...
297
00:15:32,149 --> 00:15:36,253
I'm also claiming invasion of privacy
and rank abuse of basic civil rights.
298
00:15:36,377 --> 00:15:38,005
- Hold on not quite so fast...
- Oh, I don't pretend to know
299
00:15:38,130 --> 00:15:41,136
the legal terminology but I can get a
lawyer to help me out about that.
300
00:15:41,262 --> 00:15:42,819
It also happens that a very
well known advocate
301
00:15:42,943 --> 00:15:44,290
is a close personal friend
of the family's.
302
00:15:44,416 --> 00:15:46,696
You aren't threatening to register
an official complaint are you?
303
00:15:46,821 --> 00:15:48,923
Yes. I am, I am and
I might also mention
304
00:15:49,048 --> 00:15:51,317
a rather clumsy attempt
to work me for a bribe.
305
00:15:51,442 --> 00:15:54,284
There she comes,
your friend, Mrs. Burstner.
306
00:15:54,642 --> 00:15:57,862
Yes, well she's not
exactly my friend.
307
00:15:57,987 --> 00:15:59,569
Not that it's any
business of yours.
308
00:15:59,694 --> 00:16:01,529
Are you going to stay
here all morning?
309
00:16:01,654 --> 00:16:03,438
What do we do now
take fingerprints?
310
00:16:03,564 --> 00:16:05,154
We can do that at the station.
311
00:16:05,279 --> 00:16:05,962
Station?
312
00:16:06,087 --> 00:16:09,057
Where else could you register
an official complaint?
313
00:16:10,136 --> 00:16:11,366
Oh well, we can
forget about that...
314
00:16:11,491 --> 00:16:13,209
It's on the record.
315
00:16:13,750 --> 00:16:16,484
You did use the word
"threatening".
316
00:16:16,608 --> 00:16:17,944
No, that was your word.
317
00:16:18,068 --> 00:16:19,695
What's this? What's this
"pornograph"?
318
00:16:19,820 --> 00:16:21,745
Oh, don't try to make
anything out of that.
319
00:16:21,871 --> 00:16:22,371
No?
320
00:16:22,423 --> 00:16:24,084
Not unless you
have a dirty mind.
321
00:16:24,209 --> 00:16:26,599
- Excuse me
- No, no you stay, Mrs. Grubach.
322
00:16:26,723 --> 00:16:29,786
None of this is going to show up
very well on the record, Mr. K.
323
00:16:29,910 --> 00:16:33,406
My men say you even tried to
stop them from putting this down.
324
00:16:33,532 --> 00:16:35,732
Well, I tried to stop one of them
from making a fool of himself
325
00:16:35,857 --> 00:16:37,771
- Yes. Yes, ovular.
- What's that?
326
00:16:37,896 --> 00:16:39,287
Ovular.
327
00:16:39,412 --> 00:16:41,954
There is no such word.
328
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,757
"Mrs. Grubach's husband
was a dentist."
329
00:16:45,882 --> 00:16:49,341
Now what's that got to
do with you case?
330
00:16:49,467 --> 00:16:50,750
I never said that it did.
331
00:16:50,876 --> 00:16:52,268
Then why mention such a thing?
332
00:16:52,393 --> 00:16:55,771
Simply by way of explaining
that ovular shape.
333
00:16:55,897 --> 00:16:58,244
"Ovular shape."
334
00:17:00,529 --> 00:17:02,638
You go on solemnly
writing it all down.
335
00:17:02,763 --> 00:17:04,418
There has to be a
record, doesn't there?
336
00:17:04,543 --> 00:17:06,819
But this foolish babbling
337
00:17:06,942 --> 00:17:08,714
It's not going to make
much of an impression,
338
00:17:08,839 --> 00:17:11,038
I can tell you that, Mr. K.
339
00:17:11,164 --> 00:17:12,647
Won't look well at all.
340
00:17:12,771 --> 00:17:14,113
Gibberish.
341
00:17:14,239 --> 00:17:16,369
Babbling.
342
00:17:16,901 --> 00:17:18,556
I'm glad he's gone.
343
00:17:18,681 --> 00:17:20,900
I was worried he might
start on Miss Burstner.
344
00:17:23,917 --> 00:17:26,241
- Oh she's on her way up.
- Later than ever.
345
00:17:26,365 --> 00:17:29,340
Well let's hope she was safely away last
night before these men got into her room.
346
00:17:29,466 --> 00:17:30,933
What time does she go to work?
347
00:17:31,057 --> 00:17:33,480
I believe she had to be
dressed or undressed
348
00:17:33,605 --> 00:17:35,477
for that first performance
at midnight.
349
00:17:35,602 --> 00:17:36,402
Yeah, the supper show.
350
00:17:36,438 --> 00:17:38,313
Well I don't know
what they call it.
351
00:17:38,438 --> 00:17:39,078
The supper show.
352
00:17:39,201 --> 00:17:40,699
I'm sure I wouldn't know.
353
00:17:40,825 --> 00:17:42,148
Well that's what they call it.
354
00:17:42,273 --> 00:17:45,912
I've never been inside one
of those places in my life.
355
00:17:46,038 --> 00:17:49,616
Indeed, you may have wondered why
I continue to rent my second best room
356
00:17:49,742 --> 00:17:50,989
to a woman of that sort.
357
00:17:51,114 --> 00:17:53,502
- What do you mean?
- What? Theatricals, Mr. K.
358
00:17:53,627 --> 00:17:56,644
This isn't really the place for
them as I'm sure you'll agree.
359
00:17:56,771 --> 00:18:00,165
You see I didn't know?
She came with her mother...
360
00:18:00,290 --> 00:18:03,427
perfectly respectable woman,
or so she seemed.
361
00:18:03,551 --> 00:18:05,803
And when she died
362
00:18:05,928 --> 00:18:06,939
well, I...
363
00:18:07,064 --> 00:18:08,394
I'm always...
364
00:18:08,521 --> 00:18:11,481
too softhearted for my own good.
365
00:18:11,604 --> 00:18:13,302
- Mrs. Grubach?
- Yes?
366
00:18:13,427 --> 00:18:15,142
- What are you trying to say?
- Well...
367
00:18:15,266 --> 00:18:18,786
I get the impression that you're heading
in something concerning Miss Burstner.
368
00:18:18,910 --> 00:18:22,906
Well since you asked, Mr. K.,
She not only performs in that place...
369
00:18:23,031 --> 00:18:25,135
but sits drinking
afterwards with men.
370
00:18:25,260 --> 00:18:26,682
What I asked, Mrs. Grubach,
371
00:18:26,808 --> 00:18:29,528
was whether or not you were casting
aspersions on the moral character
372
00:18:29,648 --> 00:18:31,712
of one of your own lodgers.
373
00:18:31,837 --> 00:18:35,092
Oh. Mr. K., you shouldn't
put it that way.
374
00:18:35,218 --> 00:18:37,280
Goodnight, Mrs. Grubach.
375
00:18:37,405 --> 00:18:41,402
I wouldn't dream of
getting rid of...
376
00:18:44,465 --> 00:18:47,667
You have to admit, Mr. K.,
it's in the interest of all my guests
377
00:18:47,912 --> 00:18:50,989
to keep our house
completely beyond reproach.
378
00:18:51,116 --> 00:18:53,058
Beyond reproach?
379
00:18:54,144 --> 00:18:57,633
Mrs. Grubach, if you're going to start
throwing people out of this house
380
00:18:57,759 --> 00:19:00,567
you'd better begin with me.
381
00:19:00,691 --> 00:19:01,956
Goodnight, Mrs. Grubach.
382
00:19:03,207 --> 00:19:04,642
You didn't understand.
383
00:19:04,767 --> 00:19:06,620
Goodnight, Mrs. Grubach.
384
00:19:09,095 --> 00:19:12,055
- Goodnight, Mr. K.
- Goodnight.
385
00:19:14,143 --> 00:19:16,074
Miss Burstner?
386
00:19:21,169 --> 00:19:23,044
Yes?
387
00:19:28,830 --> 00:19:30,441
Good evening.
388
00:19:30,566 --> 00:19:32,958
Or good morning, rather.
389
00:19:33,082 --> 00:19:37,190
If you're stuck for something
to say try happy birthday.
390
00:19:37,316 --> 00:19:38,236
Oh is it your birthday?
391
00:19:38,328 --> 00:19:40,961
Is that why you're coming home
so much later than usual?
392
00:19:41,085 --> 00:19:45,536
I didn't know you kept track
of my hours, Mister...
393
00:19:45,661 --> 00:19:49,760
Well, I didn't mean that. Of course
it's none of my business what time
394
00:19:49,886 --> 00:19:51,457
you come home at night.
It's nobody's business.
395
00:19:51,582 --> 00:19:53,843
That's fine, goodnight.
396
00:19:55,555 --> 00:19:57,977
Happy birthday!
397
00:20:14,785 --> 00:20:15,888
Oh, oh, excuse me!
398
00:20:16,013 --> 00:20:17,528
Excuse me!
399
00:20:17,653 --> 00:20:19,596
No, no...
400
00:20:28,867 --> 00:20:30,894
Yes?
401
00:20:31,019 --> 00:20:33,266
Well that's what's I ought
to have done, naturally...
402
00:20:33,391 --> 00:20:33,965
What?
403
00:20:34,091 --> 00:20:35,376
What ought you to have done?
404
00:20:35,501 --> 00:20:37,337
Well after I knocked,
I should've...
405
00:20:37,462 --> 00:20:40,091
waited for me to invite you
to come in, as you did.
406
00:20:40,216 --> 00:20:41,024
Come in.
407
00:20:41,149 --> 00:20:43,339
You're not getting any
funny ideas, are you?
408
00:20:43,464 --> 00:20:44,123
Of course not.
409
00:20:44,249 --> 00:20:46,676
Just because I knocked
on your door...
410
00:20:46,801 --> 00:20:49,865
Well that's what I mean.
You did, didn't you?
411
00:20:49,990 --> 00:20:52,352
So why don't you?
412
00:20:54,541 --> 00:20:59,875
You're a nice boy,
but I'm not in the mood for it.
413
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,688
It's been a long, hard night.
414
00:21:03,330 --> 00:21:04,209
Yes it has been.
415
00:21:04,334 --> 00:21:07,118
What do you know about it?
416
00:21:07,242 --> 00:21:08,531
I was talking about myself.
417
00:21:08,657 --> 00:21:10,135
That's what they all do.
418
00:21:10,262 --> 00:21:12,682
What else do they
ever talk about?
419
00:21:12,806 --> 00:21:14,442
So give me a rest, will you.
420
00:21:14,567 --> 00:21:15,820
Alright.
421
00:21:15,945 --> 00:21:17,890
Alright what?
422
00:21:18,014 --> 00:21:20,475
Well I'll do whatever
you say but...
423
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,507
if you don't want me to talk to
you and you won't come in...
424
00:21:23,631 --> 00:21:25,062
How can I come in?
425
00:21:25,188 --> 00:21:29,307
That old bag's just dying for
a chance to throw me out.
426
00:21:29,432 --> 00:21:30,066
Mrs. Grubach?
427
00:21:30,190 --> 00:21:33,340
Out of the house, she's
always got one ear open.
428
00:21:37,755 --> 00:21:38,599
What's wrong?
429
00:21:38,723 --> 00:21:40,958
I told you, I'm tired.
430
00:21:41,084 --> 00:21:42,363
I'm sorry.
431
00:21:46,850 --> 00:21:48,448
I forgot what I wanted to ask you.
432
00:21:48,573 --> 00:21:49,621
Maybe it will come back to you.
433
00:21:49,746 --> 00:21:51,522
Nothing ever comes back to me.
434
00:21:51,647 --> 00:21:53,577
Big statement...
435
00:21:53,702 --> 00:21:54,996
Shut up everybody.
436
00:21:55,120 --> 00:21:55,883
I'm sorry.
437
00:21:56,008 --> 00:21:59,096
You're sorry, you're sorry, you're sorry.
You always keep saying that.
438
00:21:59,221 --> 00:22:00,318
Who gives a damn?
439
00:22:00,444 --> 00:22:02,283
I know, I'm sor...
440
00:22:02,576 --> 00:22:03,641
What's the big joke?
441
00:22:03,765 --> 00:22:05,322
I'm almost said it again.
442
00:22:05,446 --> 00:22:06,706
You're right of course,
you're perfectly right.
443
00:22:06,831 --> 00:22:09,553
- Ya?
- Nobody gives a damn.
444
00:22:09,679 --> 00:22:11,255
- I know you don't.
- I know...
445
00:22:11,381 --> 00:22:12,917
Hey keep the door open, please!
446
00:22:13,042 --> 00:22:14,158
I was agreeing with you.
447
00:22:14,283 --> 00:22:15,126
Oh sure.
448
00:22:15,252 --> 00:22:17,833
- What you just said.
- I don't know what I've just said.
449
00:22:17,957 --> 00:22:22,761
Oh Jesus, all that lousy champagne.
450
00:22:22,886 --> 00:22:24,580
You know what they
make it out of?
451
00:22:24,704 --> 00:22:25,270
No.
452
00:22:25,395 --> 00:22:27,496
Neither does anybody else.
453
00:22:27,620 --> 00:22:30,832
No switching with the
cold tea either, not tonight.
454
00:22:30,958 --> 00:22:35,439
The customer knew all about that one
he kept taking cute little sips
455
00:22:35,566 --> 00:22:41,300
out of my glass just to make sure
I was getting myself putrefied.
456
00:22:42,295 --> 00:22:44,110
I'm sorry.
457
00:22:44,235 --> 00:22:46,783
Damn! There I go again.
458
00:22:46,908 --> 00:22:49,463
It's never any use is it,
apologizing? It's even worse
459
00:22:49,588 --> 00:22:52,794
when you haven't done anything
wrong and you still feel guilty.
460
00:22:52,919 --> 00:22:54,439
I can remember my
father looking at me,
461
00:22:54,491 --> 00:22:57,089
you know straight in the eye,
"Come on boy!" he'd say.
462
00:22:57,215 --> 00:22:59,711
"Exactly what have
you been up to?"
463
00:22:59,837 --> 00:23:02,452
And even when I hadn't been up to
anything at all I'd still feel guilty.
464
00:23:02,577 --> 00:23:04,365
You know that feeling?
465
00:23:04,492 --> 00:23:05,806
And the teacher at school
making the announcement
466
00:23:05,932 --> 00:23:07,532
that something was
missing from her desk.
467
00:23:07,637 --> 00:23:09,697
"Alright who's the guilty one?"
468
00:23:09,823 --> 00:23:11,361
It was me of course.
469
00:23:11,486 --> 00:23:13,614
I'd feel just sick with guilt.
470
00:23:14,763 --> 00:23:17,337
And I didn't even
know what was missing.
471
00:23:18,110 --> 00:23:20,507
Maybe... Yeah, that must be it.
472
00:23:20,633 --> 00:23:22,863
Unless your thoughts
are innocent...
473
00:23:22,987 --> 00:23:25,478
one-hundred percent.
474
00:23:27,886 --> 00:23:31,250
Could that be said of anybody?
475
00:23:31,377 --> 00:23:34,519
Even the saints have temptations.
476
00:23:42,487 --> 00:23:43,537
What do you think?
477
00:23:43,661 --> 00:23:45,813
I think you're crazy.
478
00:23:45,937 --> 00:23:48,854
Maybe you're right. That
would certainly explain...
479
00:23:48,980 --> 00:23:53,426
No, I must reject that. I must
reject every thing, but fact.
480
00:23:53,552 --> 00:23:55,155
I am sane. I'm innocent.
481
00:23:55,279 --> 00:23:59,150
- I have committed no crime.
- Three cheers for you.
482
00:23:59,276 --> 00:24:02,296
- You don't believe me.
- Sure I believe you.
483
00:24:02,420 --> 00:24:05,200
Well be honest,
what do you really think?
484
00:24:05,326 --> 00:24:07,968
You've been out some place.
485
00:24:08,093 --> 00:24:09,831
Drinking you mean?
Is that what you think?
486
00:24:09,956 --> 00:24:11,463
That I've been out drinking
and I'm drunk?
487
00:24:11,588 --> 00:24:15,430
Well next time you do come to my place
I get a percentage on every bottle.
488
00:24:15,557 --> 00:24:18,924
Miss Burstner, I've not left this
apartment since I got back
489
00:24:19,048 --> 00:24:21,656
from the office last night.
490
00:24:21,781 --> 00:24:23,434
And I am not a solitary drinker.
491
00:24:23,559 --> 00:24:25,589
Then what's your problem?
492
00:24:26,424 --> 00:24:28,071
I'm under arrest.
493
00:24:28,196 --> 00:24:29,195
Yeah?
494
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,930
Unbelievable isn't it?
495
00:24:31,055 --> 00:24:32,607
- Well it happens.
- Well that's just the point...
496
00:24:32,733 --> 00:24:33,549
I don't know how it happens.
497
00:24:33,674 --> 00:24:35,821
- I haven't the remotest idea...
- How do you know you're arrested?
498
00:24:35,946 --> 00:24:38,952
It isn't something that you just
suddenly notice like bleeding gums.
499
00:24:39,076 --> 00:24:41,708
- They woke me up and told me.
- Are you sure you were awake?
500
00:24:43,339 --> 00:24:46,460
Yeah, well if you think I was dreaming
just look at those photographs.
501
00:24:46,985 --> 00:24:47,917
- That's my mother.
- Well...
502
00:24:48,043 --> 00:24:52,431
Different poses Burstner's
birds are real good at.
503
00:24:52,557 --> 00:24:54,583
Let's leave my mother out of it,
do you mind?
504
00:24:54,706 --> 00:24:56,105
- Of course.
- No offence.
505
00:24:56,231 --> 00:24:58,507
- What did they get you for?
- Oh, I wouldn't say they got me.
506
00:24:58,632 --> 00:25:00,647
They arrested you isn't
that what you told me?
507
00:25:00,771 --> 00:25:01,771
That's what they told me.
508
00:25:01,839 --> 00:25:04,021
- What's the charge?
- That's what they didn't tell me.
509
00:25:04,147 --> 00:25:06,737
All I know is that I'm supposed to
appear before some kind of
510
00:25:06,862 --> 00:25:08,582
interrogation commission,
that's all I know.
511
00:25:08,606 --> 00:25:10,887
- That's only for serious crimes.
- That's what I thought!
512
00:25:10,939 --> 00:25:13,344
Did they tell you that your
crime wasn't serious?
513
00:25:13,469 --> 00:25:14,817
No they didn't say that.
514
00:25:14,943 --> 00:25:16,857
Maybe it's a gag or something...
515
00:25:17,335 --> 00:25:19,936
That thought occurred to me at first, you
know some of the fellas at the office,
516
00:25:20,060 --> 00:25:23,375
some kind of elaborate
practical joke, but...
517
00:25:23,502 --> 00:25:27,130
I didn't really believe that,
I just wanted to...
518
00:25:27,253 --> 00:25:31,069
It's awful how easy it is to
get demoralized, isn't it?
519
00:25:32,228 --> 00:25:35,068
Well of course that's
what they want.
520
00:25:35,193 --> 00:25:37,239
That's what they're counting on.
521
00:25:37,362 --> 00:25:39,450
- I'm not such a fool that I don't...
- You must've done something.
522
00:25:39,575 --> 00:25:41,243
You must've done something.
523
00:25:41,368 --> 00:25:42,888
Oh, don't say that,
don't you say that.
524
00:25:42,950 --> 00:25:44,550
Somebody's been telling
lies about you...
525
00:25:44,566 --> 00:25:47,496
Could be it, rumours, they're
always flying around for no reason.
526
00:25:47,620 --> 00:25:48,764
- Rumours...
- Well at the office...
527
00:25:48,889 --> 00:25:50,322
What kind of rumours?
528
00:25:50,448 --> 00:25:53,120
You mean in my case?
529
00:25:53,245 --> 00:25:55,806
That's just it. I haven't
the faintest idea.
530
00:25:55,932 --> 00:25:59,555
- Jesus, I hope it isn't political.
- Oh no, nothing like that.
531
00:25:59,679 --> 00:26:01,575
Politics! Don't go
dragging me into it.
532
00:26:01,700 --> 00:26:03,780
No, Miss Burstner, I'm afraid
we just talk in circles.
533
00:26:03,805 --> 00:26:05,816
That's not my fault,
I'm not talking in circles.
534
00:26:05,940 --> 00:26:08,340
I don't even want to talk.
What are you doing in here anyway?
535
00:26:08,396 --> 00:26:11,219
- Well you invited me.
- That's what you say.
536
00:26:11,344 --> 00:26:13,329
- Miss Burstner, please...
- Please what?
537
00:26:13,454 --> 00:26:16,954
Listen if you're in trouble
I'm sorry, I'm real sorry,
538
00:26:17,079 --> 00:26:18,238
but keep me out of it.
539
00:26:18,364 --> 00:26:21,004
I did, I am, I told them you didn't
have anything to do with me but
540
00:26:21,107 --> 00:26:22,896
they wouldn't listen.
Tt was maddening
541
00:26:23,021 --> 00:26:25,876
and then when they started to mess
around with your mother's photograph.
542
00:26:26,002 --> 00:26:30,223
What! Who's been messing around
with my mother's photograph?
543
00:26:30,347 --> 00:26:32,560
Rebenstein, I think it was.
544
00:26:35,484 --> 00:26:37,393
But also the police.
545
00:26:38,674 --> 00:26:41,213
- The police?
- Well that's what I've been telling you.
546
00:26:41,701 --> 00:26:44,147
- Miss Burstner...
- Get out! Get out of here.
547
00:26:44,273 --> 00:26:46,193
- Miss Burstner, please...
- Get out and stay out
548
00:26:46,263 --> 00:26:46,837
and leave me alone.
549
00:26:46,962 --> 00:26:48,306
Miss. Burstner please and
what will the other lodgers think
550
00:26:48,430 --> 00:26:49,887
and Mrs. Grubach
you will wake her...
551
00:26:50,012 --> 00:26:51,860
Get the hell out of my room.
552
00:26:51,985 --> 00:26:53,925
Well, I'm out.
553
00:27:22,156 --> 00:27:23,143
- Mr. K.
- Good morning if there's anybody
554
00:27:23,268 --> 00:27:24,105
waiting I'll see them in a minute.
555
00:27:24,230 --> 00:27:26,190
The deputy manager,
he was looking for you, Mr. K.
556
00:27:26,237 --> 00:27:29,390
I think he's in the hall
and your cousin's here.
557
00:27:29,514 --> 00:27:30,995
My cousin?
558
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:32,719
She's not supposed
to come to the office.
559
00:27:32,817 --> 00:27:34,633
She said it was serious.
560
00:27:39,633 --> 00:27:40,725
K.
561
00:27:40,851 --> 00:27:42,651
Oh, good morning sir.
562
00:27:42,776 --> 00:27:45,522
I was just arranging an
old birthday surprise.
563
00:27:45,647 --> 00:27:47,409
In here? In this broom closet?
564
00:27:47,534 --> 00:27:49,794
Well I have this, this, this...
565
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,070
This birthday cake for one of
my fellow lodgers. I didn't think...
566
00:27:52,196 --> 00:27:53,796
I ought to carry the
thing to the office.
567
00:27:53,854 --> 00:27:56,626
- Don't you agree?
- Who is she?
568
00:27:56,750 --> 00:27:58,661
If I'd only know about
this lady before...
569
00:27:58,786 --> 00:28:01,498
she would've been included
in the invitation tonight.
570
00:28:01,624 --> 00:28:04,624
- But the tickets are all booked...
- Oh I know, I know.
571
00:28:04,749 --> 00:28:07,637
She'll understand, I hope
your girl won't be too much...
572
00:28:07,763 --> 00:28:09,972
I saw her unpleasantness already
sir, and it can't be much worse...
573
00:28:10,096 --> 00:28:12,464
The cake is actually
a peace offering.
574
00:28:12,590 --> 00:28:16,935
If she doesn't take it then
she's not the right girl for you.
575
00:28:17,060 --> 00:28:18,260
Who's that?
576
00:28:21,244 --> 00:28:23,647
That's my cousin, Irmie.
What's she doing here?
577
00:28:23,774 --> 00:28:25,283
- What are you doing?
- Your cousin, huh...
578
00:28:25,408 --> 00:28:27,682
Yes, from the city, going to the
school from the...
579
00:28:27,808 --> 00:28:29,540
country going to school
here in the city.
580
00:28:29,665 --> 00:28:34,404
- I'm supposed to keep an eye on her.
- We'll have to keep an eye on you, man.
581
00:28:35,243 --> 00:28:37,935
- She looks pretty young.
- Yes, sir.
582
00:28:38,061 --> 00:28:40,869
There's a place for
everything, right K?
583
00:28:40,996 --> 00:28:43,071
Oh, and she's never dared to
come in the office before sir,
584
00:28:43,197 --> 00:28:44,839
I can assure you of that.
585
00:28:44,963 --> 00:28:48,762
You're a bright young man, one of
our brightest. On the way up.
586
00:28:48,887 --> 00:28:51,801
- Don't spoil things for yourself.
- No.
587
00:28:51,926 --> 00:28:55,566
- How old is she?
- What? Irmie, oh...
588
00:28:55,691 --> 00:28:58,225
Can't be more then 16, if that.
589
00:28:58,350 --> 00:28:59,362
Yeah.
590
00:29:01,015 --> 00:29:02,348
My God!
591
00:29:02,473 --> 00:29:04,917
Mr. K, the young lady...
592
00:29:05,041 --> 00:29:06,801
Get her out of here.
593
00:29:06,927 --> 00:29:07,864
But she said that it's urgent...
594
00:29:07,987 --> 00:29:11,895
I don't care what she says.
Just get her out of here.
595
00:29:31,081 --> 00:29:32,847
I beg your pardon but
isn't that Miss Burstner's trunk?
596
00:29:32,973 --> 00:29:35,293
- And what if it is?
- Well I thought I recognized it.
597
00:29:35,418 --> 00:29:37,167
Here, you take the birthday cake.
598
00:29:38,197 --> 00:29:40,603
I have quite enough on my hands
with this trunk.
599
00:29:40,727 --> 00:29:42,637
Well yes that's what I mean
now let me help you with it.
600
00:29:42,761 --> 00:29:44,081
- Here take this.
- No, thank you.
601
00:29:44,182 --> 00:29:45,966
- Please.
- No, thank you.
602
00:29:46,091 --> 00:29:47,835
Well at least
let me call you a cab.
603
00:29:48,282 --> 00:29:51,149
Not everyone can
afford taxicabs, Mr. K.
604
00:29:51,274 --> 00:29:53,501
You know my name?
605
00:29:53,628 --> 00:29:55,647
Excuse me? You are a
friend of hers, I gather?
606
00:29:55,771 --> 00:29:57,733
I wonder if you can
tell me if she's home.
607
00:29:57,858 --> 00:30:01,428
If by home you refer to
Mrs. Grubach's establishment,
608
00:30:01,553 --> 00:30:03,982
the answer to your question is no.
609
00:30:04,106 --> 00:30:05,436
Marika does have a home...
610
00:30:05,561 --> 00:30:07,425
but it's not at Mrs. Grubach's.
611
00:30:07,550 --> 00:30:08,240
Marika?
612
00:30:08,365 --> 00:30:10,330
Pardon?
613
00:30:10,454 --> 00:30:12,068
I never knew her first name.
614
00:30:12,192 --> 00:30:13,612
How ironic.
615
00:30:13,738 --> 00:30:16,155
You say, she has a home,
you mean another home?
616
00:30:16,278 --> 00:30:18,408
Yes, she has one now, luckily.
617
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,680
I wish you'd let me help you with
that trunk it seems quite heavy.
618
00:30:22,805 --> 00:30:24,150
- Extremely heavy.
- Well then...
619
00:30:24,275 --> 00:30:27,147
I'll take it to her myself,
thank you.
620
00:30:27,272 --> 00:30:28,785
Take it to her...
You'll take it to where?
621
00:30:28,910 --> 00:30:31,631
I hope it's not your
intention to follow me.
622
00:30:31,756 --> 00:30:33,521
- No, not at all.
- Up to now...
623
00:30:33,646 --> 00:30:35,454
you've been dogging
my footsteps.
624
00:30:35,579 --> 00:30:36,739
Well I hate to see a woman...
625
00:30:36,844 --> 00:30:38,864
dragging a great heavy trunk
like that, that's all.
626
00:30:38,990 --> 00:30:42,111
Especially one with a physical
disability, isn't that what you mean?
627
00:30:42,236 --> 00:30:43,834
- No, not at all, I...
- Since you find
628
00:30:43,959 --> 00:30:45,983
the spectacle so
unpleasant Mr. K.
629
00:30:46,108 --> 00:30:48,212
Why not spare your feelings
630
00:30:48,337 --> 00:30:51,587
and remove yourself
from the cause of your distress.
631
00:30:52,261 --> 00:30:53,619
I'm sorry.
632
00:30:55,559 --> 00:30:58,470
Listen, the last thing I want
is to annoy you but...
633
00:30:58,596 --> 00:31:02,099
I would like very much to know
if Miss Burstner is moving...
634
00:31:02,223 --> 00:31:03,463
or is planning to move...
635
00:31:03,589 --> 00:31:05,233
and if so, where to?
636
00:31:05,359 --> 00:31:06,669
Anything else?
637
00:31:06,793 --> 00:31:10,327
Yes. Well yes, I'd like to know why.
Why is she moving?
638
00:31:10,453 --> 00:31:13,981
And you have the unmitigated gall
to pretend you don't know.
639
00:31:14,797 --> 00:31:17,451
Well no, how could I?
I've just got home.
640
00:31:17,576 --> 00:31:20,352
I mean we did talk this morning but
she didn't seem to be planning to move.
641
00:31:20,477 --> 00:31:22,208
She wasn't Mr. K.
642
00:31:22,332 --> 00:31:24,587
It came as a very nasty surprise.
643
00:31:24,713 --> 00:31:27,544
You make it sound as if
I were responsible.
644
00:31:28,531 --> 00:31:30,621
Do you pretend you have
nothing to do with it?
645
00:31:30,746 --> 00:31:32,597
I don't pretend anything.
646
00:31:32,721 --> 00:31:35,028
All we did was talk,
though I did kiss her.
647
00:31:35,864 --> 00:31:39,479
I hope you're not, not trying to tell me
that it's just because I kissed her.
648
00:31:39,603 --> 00:31:42,763
She's changing her address
just because I kissed her.
649
00:31:42,888 --> 00:31:45,793
I mean after all, she's a
woman of the world.
650
00:31:45,918 --> 00:31:47,713
She works at the nightclub.
651
00:31:47,838 --> 00:31:49,621
What are you insinuating?
652
00:31:50,437 --> 00:31:55,384
Well nothing, but you'll have to admit
she's a grown woman not a minor.
653
00:31:56,591 --> 00:31:58,459
Somebody must have
kissed her before.
654
00:31:58,584 --> 00:32:02,194
Do you think this is a topic to be
shouted through the public streets?
655
00:32:02,319 --> 00:32:04,538
Oh hell! Hell!
656
00:32:04,663 --> 00:32:05,703
There is no need to curse.
657
00:32:05,707 --> 00:32:08,661
Why am I always in the wrong
without even knowing what for,
658
00:32:08,786 --> 00:32:10,298
or what it's all about?
659
00:32:10,423 --> 00:32:13,256
That's not something I'm prepared
to discuss with you, Mr. K.
660
00:32:13,698 --> 00:32:15,432
You better examine
your own conscience.
661
00:32:15,556 --> 00:32:17,437
Ya, well there's nothing wrong
with my conscience, thank you.
662
00:32:17,563 --> 00:32:18,698
Nothing at all.
663
00:32:18,824 --> 00:32:21,791
Marika has been staying with Mrs Grubach
longer then you have, Mr. K.
664
00:32:21,916 --> 00:32:23,275
Don't forget that.
665
00:32:24,259 --> 00:32:26,133
She was very fond of that room.
666
00:32:26,259 --> 00:32:29,650
My poor little room is dark
and damp and poorly heated.
667
00:32:29,775 --> 00:32:31,192
She won't be nearly
as comfortable with me...
668
00:32:31,317 --> 00:32:32,317
Well then why does she...
669
00:32:32,439 --> 00:32:34,350
- move, for god's sake!
- Don't you shout at me Mr. K.
670
00:32:34,477 --> 00:32:36,017
I'm a woman and a cripple...
671
00:32:36,142 --> 00:32:38,459
but that doesn't mean I have to
stand for your abuse.
672
00:32:40,286 --> 00:32:43,163
Go scream at that Grubach woman.
673
00:32:43,289 --> 00:32:45,716
Wait a minute. You don't mean...
674
00:32:47,029 --> 00:32:48,325
Hell, it's late.
675
00:32:50,074 --> 00:32:51,594
I'll never get dressed
for the theatre.
676
00:32:51,661 --> 00:32:54,701
First you've got to give me the truth.
Now did Mrs. Grubach ask her to leave?
677
00:32:54,802 --> 00:32:56,334
I thought you didn't know
what happened, Mr. K.
678
00:32:56,460 --> 00:32:58,943
Oh she did make a few uncalled
for remarks about Miss Burstner.
679
00:32:59,068 --> 00:33:01,062
I took exception to them,
very strong exception.
680
00:33:01,186 --> 00:33:02,836
I told Mrs. Grubach
in no uncertain terms
681
00:33:02,962 --> 00:33:04,190
that she was out of line.
682
00:33:04,470 --> 00:33:05,148
Oh my dear...
683
00:33:05,273 --> 00:33:06,418
You mean she...
684
00:33:06,544 --> 00:33:08,013
Just, threw her out?
685
00:33:11,896 --> 00:33:14,517
Well I guess, I guess
I am responsible.
686
00:33:15,253 --> 00:33:18,575
Listen Miss... uh, Mrs...
687
00:33:36,249 --> 00:33:37,381
Excuse me, sir...
688
00:33:37,506 --> 00:33:39,675
Excuse me, but I have
a note here for you.
689
00:33:39,799 --> 00:33:41,747
- Are you sure?
- Yes. It's for you.
690
00:33:41,870 --> 00:33:43,270
Somebody passed it
down, over there.
691
00:33:43,389 --> 00:33:45,957
- Where?
- I think it's the man there maybe.
692
00:34:11,899 --> 00:34:12,772
Mr. K.
693
00:34:18,699 --> 00:34:20,305
Come with me, Mr. K.
694
00:34:37,897 --> 00:34:40,255
We're making every reasonable
effort at this point.
695
00:34:40,382 --> 00:34:44,609
To keep from interfering unnecessarily
with the normal pattern of your life.
696
00:34:46,130 --> 00:34:47,515
For instance...
697
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:51,865
So you wouldn't have to request special
leave of absence from your office...
698
00:34:51,991 --> 00:34:55,258
we've arranged to fit in
these interrogations,
699
00:34:55,383 --> 00:34:58,141
outside your normal
working hours.
700
00:35:02,627 --> 00:35:04,770
Step into the light, Mr. K.
701
00:35:06,052 --> 00:35:07,343
Who are they?
702
00:35:07,774 --> 00:35:11,217
I can't expect you to know where the
interrogation commission is sited.
703
00:35:11,344 --> 00:35:12,989
That's right, I don't.
704
00:35:15,150 --> 00:35:17,965
I've filled this out in your name
and so you won't get lost.
705
00:35:18,090 --> 00:35:20,003
I've drawn you a
little map on the back.
706
00:35:20,127 --> 00:35:20,889
Thanks.
707
00:35:21,014 --> 00:35:24,001
You'll present that
immediately on arrival.
708
00:35:24,126 --> 00:35:25,138
And when is that?
709
00:35:25,262 --> 00:35:26,224
Immediately.
710
00:35:26,349 --> 00:35:27,058
Tonight?
711
00:35:27,183 --> 00:35:30,421
I hope you won't have too
much trouble locating it.
712
00:35:30,546 --> 00:35:33,145
Well if I do these two can
always set me straight.
713
00:35:33,269 --> 00:35:34,522
What exactly do you mean?
714
00:35:34,648 --> 00:35:37,068
Aren't they supposed to trail
around after me wherever I go,
715
00:35:37,194 --> 00:35:39,235
observing my movements?
716
00:35:40,495 --> 00:35:41,329
No...
717
00:35:41,455 --> 00:35:43,094
They aren't going to follow you.
718
00:35:43,740 --> 00:35:45,716
That isn't their job.
719
00:37:01,789 --> 00:37:03,210
Go right in there.
720
00:37:12,170 --> 00:37:15,782
I've gotta close the doors after you.
Nobody else must come in.
721
00:37:27,647 --> 00:37:29,680
You should have been here
722
00:37:29,805 --> 00:37:33,672
one hour and five minutes ago.
723
00:37:33,955 --> 00:37:36,368
These delays must not occur again.
724
00:37:37,021 --> 00:37:38,620
Please step up.
725
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,489
You are a house painter?
726
00:37:54,614 --> 00:37:55,511
No.
727
00:37:59,587 --> 00:38:00,976
The question from the
examining magistrate
728
00:38:01,102 --> 00:38:02,490
about my being a
house painter...
729
00:38:02,616 --> 00:38:07,020
seems typical of this so called trial
that's being hoisted upon me.
730
00:38:08,531 --> 00:38:10,795
From the very notebook of
the examining magistrate
731
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:12,717
confirms what I say.
732
00:38:12,841 --> 00:38:17,258
These are the examining
magistrate's records.
733
00:38:17,873 --> 00:38:20,804
What's happening to me
is of no great importance.
734
00:38:20,930 --> 00:38:23,297
But I think it is representative
of what's happening to a
735
00:38:23,422 --> 00:38:25,715
great many other people as well.
736
00:38:27,916 --> 00:38:31,031
And it's for these others that I take
my stand here, not for myself alone.
737
00:38:31,156 --> 00:38:33,658
That's it boy, give em hell!
738
00:38:33,783 --> 00:38:35,617
I have been arrested
and perhaps...
739
00:38:35,742 --> 00:38:37,582
considering the magistrate's
opening statement,
740
00:38:37,693 --> 00:38:41,118
perhaps they had orders
to arrest some house painter.
741
00:38:41,243 --> 00:38:43,552
Who may well
be as innocent as I am.
742
00:38:43,677 --> 00:38:46,089
...furthermore they even
tried to get me to bribe them,
743
00:38:46,214 --> 00:38:48,677
to steal my clothes and shirts from me.
744
00:38:48,801 --> 00:38:51,069
I managed to keep calm.
I asked them very simply,
745
00:38:51,194 --> 00:38:52,832
why I was arrested...
746
00:38:52,958 --> 00:38:55,904
And what was the answer
of your self-styled inspector?
747
00:38:56,028 --> 00:38:58,132
If he were here he would
have to back me up in this.
748
00:38:58,258 --> 00:39:00,763
Gentlemen, he answered
in effect nothing at all.
749
00:39:00,888 --> 00:39:03,214
He had arrested me
that was enough.
750
00:39:04,298 --> 00:39:07,538
I noticed that your examining magistrate
has just given some of you a secret sign.
751
00:39:07,656 --> 00:39:09,648
Well I don't know whether
that sign was meant to be a...
752
00:39:09,774 --> 00:39:11,890
a signal for applause
or to hiss me...
753
00:39:12,016 --> 00:39:14,504
but, I hereby publicly empower
the examining magistrate
754
00:39:14,627 --> 00:39:17,155
to address his entire
intentions out loud.
755
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:18,830
- Let him say.
- Hiss now or a clap
756
00:39:19,039 --> 00:39:20,481
now whatever he wants.
757
00:39:20,607 --> 00:39:23,935
Can there be any doubt
that behind my arrest
758
00:39:24,060 --> 00:39:27,005
a vast organization is at work?
759
00:39:27,130 --> 00:39:31,114
And establishments which contains
a retinue of civil servants, officers,
760
00:39:31,240 --> 00:39:33,899
police and others,
perhaps even hangmen.
761
00:39:49,456 --> 00:39:51,141
I notice that all of you are
wearing the same badge.
762
00:39:51,265 --> 00:39:54,463
So is every damn one of you here
is an official of some kind.
763
00:39:54,589 --> 00:39:55,857
That means you've all
come rushing in here
764
00:39:55,982 --> 00:39:58,255
to listen to nose out
what you can about me.
765
00:39:58,379 --> 00:40:00,310
Half of you clap,
It was just to lead me on.
766
00:40:00,434 --> 00:40:02,313
Get out of my way.
767
00:40:02,830 --> 00:40:06,052
Maybe you wanted some practise
in fooling an innocent man.
768
00:40:06,178 --> 00:40:08,178
Perhaps you found some
amusement in the fact that I
769
00:40:08,283 --> 00:40:10,770
seriously expected you
to be interested in justice.
770
00:40:12,082 --> 00:40:13,138
One moment.
771
00:40:13,264 --> 00:40:16,440
I only wish to point out that tonight
you have thrown away...
772
00:40:16,564 --> 00:40:17,243
with your own hand...
773
00:40:17,368 --> 00:40:22,979
all the advantages which an interrogation
invariably converts on an accused man.
774
00:40:23,104 --> 00:40:24,159
Just you wait.
775
00:41:23,106 --> 00:41:24,334
Sir...
776
00:41:25,127 --> 00:41:26,087
What are you doing here?
777
00:41:26,187 --> 00:41:28,007
We're gonna get flogged.
778
00:41:29,213 --> 00:41:29,991
- You're what?
- We're gonna be beat.
779
00:41:30,116 --> 00:41:31,796
- It's all because of you mister.
- Yeah, yeah.
780
00:41:31,866 --> 00:41:33,366
- Hey, why...
- It's all your fault mister...
781
00:41:33,490 --> 00:41:35,062
You caused that thing about
us to the authorities.
782
00:41:35,187 --> 00:41:36,984
You accused us of corruption.
783
00:41:37,109 --> 00:41:38,932
You lodged a complaint.
784
00:41:39,057 --> 00:41:41,370
I only mentioned it
to the inspector.
785
00:41:41,495 --> 00:41:42,530
And to the examining magistrate.
786
00:41:42,655 --> 00:41:43,462
Come on let's get on with it.
787
00:41:43,588 --> 00:41:45,575
You accused us of
soliciting for bribes.
788
00:41:45,700 --> 00:41:46,417
Well you're not
exactly innocent...
789
00:41:46,542 --> 00:41:47,941
If you knew what kinda money
we're expected to live on
790
00:41:48,067 --> 00:41:49,503
you wouldn't be so hard on us.
791
00:41:49,629 --> 00:41:50,669
I've got a family to feed.
792
00:41:50,675 --> 00:41:51,638
Frank here wants to get married.
793
00:41:51,764 --> 00:41:53,764
Anyways, it's the custom for
the arresting officers
794
00:41:53,860 --> 00:41:55,520
to get the prisoner's body linen.
795
00:41:55,645 --> 00:41:57,984
What difference can a
few shirts make to anybody?
796
00:41:58,109 --> 00:41:59,107
- Once he's arrested...
- Nothing
797
00:41:59,232 --> 00:42:02,400
Nothing at all but still you had to
go ahead and denounce us.
798
00:42:02,525 --> 00:42:05,834
Well it wasn't anything personal
I was just defending a principle.
799
00:42:05,959 --> 00:42:06,767
Didn't I tell you?
800
00:42:06,892 --> 00:42:08,108
I told you the gentleman...
801
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,912
if it wasn't for them shirts and...
before he had found out about it.
802
00:42:19,037 --> 00:42:21,957
And nothing would have happened if you
hadn't gone ahead and denounced it.
803
00:42:22,647 --> 00:42:24,769
It's because of you
that we're punished.
804
00:42:25,177 --> 00:42:26,847
What kind of justice
do you call that?
805
00:42:26,971 --> 00:42:28,117
We've all got clean records,
806
00:42:28,243 --> 00:42:29,587
me especially.
807
00:42:30,668 --> 00:42:33,429
Take him for instance, if anybody ever'd
lodged a complaint against him
808
00:42:33,439 --> 00:42:34,769
you think he'd be
where he is now?
809
00:42:34,894 --> 00:42:36,885
- Come on let's get on with it.
- ...how painful it is...
810
00:42:37,012 --> 00:42:37,785
You too, strip.
811
00:42:37,911 --> 00:42:40,328
We even have to take
off our clothes.
812
00:42:41,139 --> 00:42:41,779
Look.
813
00:42:41,904 --> 00:42:43,240
What do you want?
814
00:42:43,364 --> 00:42:46,951
If you could see your way through
to letting him off just this once,
815
00:42:47,077 --> 00:42:47,826
I'd certainly appreciate it.
816
00:42:47,952 --> 00:42:48,992
What are you trying to do?
817
00:42:49,114 --> 00:42:50,141
- Nothing.
- You plan to lodge...
818
00:42:50,267 --> 00:42:50,939
a complaint against me?
819
00:42:51,062 --> 00:42:52,912
No, I haven't lodged
any complaint.
820
00:42:53,037 --> 00:42:55,686
Why if I wanted those men
to be punished I'd...
821
00:42:55,812 --> 00:42:57,942
I could just leave right now
and close the door...
822
00:42:58,068 --> 00:43:00,716
and close my eyes and ears
and forget about the whole thing.
823
00:43:00,842 --> 00:43:02,157
But I don't think they
should be punished.
824
00:43:02,283 --> 00:43:03,123
They're not to blame.
825
00:43:03,219 --> 00:43:05,378
It's the people above them
that should be punished.
826
00:43:05,505 --> 00:43:07,315
The authorities,
the whole organization.
827
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,451
Now if it were one of the
high judges you were flogging
828
00:43:09,577 --> 00:43:10,302
I wouldn't mind a bit.
829
00:43:10,425 --> 00:43:12,655
I'd even pay extra to
encourage the good work.
830
00:43:13,057 --> 00:43:15,891
I don't take bribes.
Not in any circumstances.
831
00:43:16,016 --> 00:43:17,345
Please, please.
832
00:43:17,471 --> 00:43:19,322
Please, please try to
get me off of here.
833
00:43:19,446 --> 00:43:22,366
Frank, here he's older than I am...
his nerves are better, he can take it.
834
00:43:22,464 --> 00:43:24,072
He's been punished before,
but your only single...
835
00:43:24,199 --> 00:43:25,962
I can't wait any longer.
836
00:43:28,735 --> 00:43:31,529
He won't get into trouble.
He knows better.
837
00:43:42,574 --> 00:43:43,875
Save me!
838
00:44:11,977 --> 00:44:13,460
Mr. K.
839
00:44:13,585 --> 00:44:14,496
What?
840
00:44:14,621 --> 00:44:18,223
Mr. K, there's a man in your office.
He says he's your uncle Max.
841
00:44:44,025 --> 00:44:45,497
Uncle Max.
842
00:44:49,543 --> 00:44:50,668
Well, my boy.
843
00:44:50,793 --> 00:44:53,378
What brings you into town?
844
00:44:53,503 --> 00:44:54,799
Josef.
845
00:44:56,828 --> 00:44:58,182
Is it true?
846
00:45:01,007 --> 00:45:02,555
Yes it's...
847
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,509
Yes it's true enough I'm afraid.
848
00:45:04,634 --> 00:45:06,347
And you're under arrest?
849
00:45:07,949 --> 00:45:10,238
Please, uncle Max.
We'll talk about it later.
850
00:45:10,364 --> 00:45:11,809
Very well then...
851
00:45:11,934 --> 00:45:14,387
Just go ahead with
your work, my boy.
852
00:45:24,354 --> 00:45:26,022
Don't mind me.
853
00:45:39,787 --> 00:45:42,963
- It's not a criminal case, is it?
- It is.
854
00:45:44,238 --> 00:45:45,414
Well?
855
00:45:46,313 --> 00:45:47,317
That's...
856
00:45:48,945 --> 00:45:50,399
That's what they tell me.
857
00:45:50,524 --> 00:45:53,339
And you just coolly sit here?
858
00:46:00,559 --> 00:46:02,114
If you won't think
of yourself...
859
00:46:02,237 --> 00:46:03,128
What?
860
00:46:03,253 --> 00:46:05,360
If you won't think of yourself,
think of the family,
861
00:46:05,485 --> 00:46:06,721
our good name.
862
00:46:11,614 --> 00:46:13,570
How did you...
863
00:46:13,696 --> 00:46:15,575
find out about it?
864
00:46:15,700 --> 00:46:18,111
Irmie called me on the
long distance telephone.
865
00:46:18,236 --> 00:46:20,099
- Irmie...
- Yeah, poor little Irmie...
866
00:46:20,223 --> 00:46:23,055
whom you wouldn't so much as
receive here in your office.
867
00:46:24,358 --> 00:46:26,452
I can't hold...
868
00:46:26,577 --> 00:46:30,090
lengthy conversations
with family relatives
869
00:46:30,214 --> 00:46:32,165
during working hours.
870
00:46:33,538 --> 00:46:36,825
- I suppose that applies to me too.
- Oh, uncle Max.
871
00:46:37,373 --> 00:46:39,861
My only thought when I made
this long exhausting trip
872
00:46:39,987 --> 00:46:41,702
was just to try to help you.
873
00:46:41,826 --> 00:46:42,653
But no...
874
00:46:46,218 --> 00:46:47,976
You don't even want to see me.
875
00:46:48,101 --> 00:46:50,130
Yes, of course I do but...
876
00:46:51,493 --> 00:46:52,599
you must realize...
877
00:46:53,785 --> 00:46:55,107
how difficult it is...
878
00:46:57,244 --> 00:46:59,111
during working hours.
879
00:47:04,817 --> 00:47:09,132
Well, it looks to me as though your
working hours are over, Josef.
880
00:47:10,085 --> 00:47:11,035
Come on.
881
00:47:12,351 --> 00:47:14,542
After all, Josef,
I'm the nearest thing...
882
00:47:14,668 --> 00:47:17,585
to a parent and a father that you
can lay claim to in the world.
883
00:47:17,710 --> 00:47:18,736
Don't forget that.
884
00:47:18,862 --> 00:47:20,828
Oh, I don't forget it,
Uncle Max, believe me.
885
00:47:34,296 --> 00:47:37,032
We've got to get some
competent legal advice, Josef.
886
00:47:37,156 --> 00:47:40,196
Things like this don't happen right
out of the blue and in a criminal case...
887
00:47:40,311 --> 00:47:41,871
Please, uncle Max,
people are listening.
888
00:47:41,906 --> 00:47:43,781
What's that up there?
889
00:47:43,906 --> 00:47:45,064
The computer.
890
00:47:50,793 --> 00:47:52,677
- One of those electronic gimmicks?
- Yes.
891
00:47:52,803 --> 00:47:54,249
Can give you the
answer to anything?
892
00:47:54,375 --> 00:47:55,252
Yes.
893
00:47:57,856 --> 00:47:59,626
- Well...
- Well what?
894
00:47:59,751 --> 00:48:03,052
You want to know about your case,
don't you? Ask the machine.
895
00:48:03,847 --> 00:48:05,737
We wouldn't be allowed.
896
00:48:05,861 --> 00:48:08,840
These things can always
be arranged, can't they?
897
00:48:08,964 --> 00:48:10,626
Well what would I ask?
898
00:48:12,103 --> 00:48:13,460
Uncle Max, I...
899
00:48:13,587 --> 00:48:15,266
I don't even know
what I'm charged with.
900
00:48:15,390 --> 00:48:17,306
Well that's one question
the brain thing...
901
00:48:17,430 --> 00:48:19,480
ought to be able to
figure it out for you.
902
00:48:20,488 --> 00:48:21,691
Well she'd need the data,
903
00:48:21,815 --> 00:48:24,850
economic, sociological,
psychological.
904
00:48:24,975 --> 00:48:28,698
Still she might be able to handle it, she
screens and processes personality tests.
905
00:48:29,539 --> 00:48:32,135
But first an awful lot of material
would have to be fed to her.
906
00:48:32,258 --> 00:48:33,141
Her?
907
00:48:33,285 --> 00:48:34,512
It's a she?
908
00:48:34,636 --> 00:48:36,352
That's the way the experts
talk about her.
909
00:48:36,478 --> 00:48:38,281
I see like for a car or a boat
910
00:48:38,405 --> 00:48:39,670
kind of affectionate.
911
00:48:40,655 --> 00:48:42,944
Well respectably,
more than that.
912
00:48:43,070 --> 00:48:44,284
Love?
913
00:48:44,409 --> 00:48:45,744
Terror?
914
00:48:45,870 --> 00:48:46,524
I don't know.
915
00:48:46,650 --> 00:48:48,979
Well, if she's a woman
I'd be careful.
916
00:48:53,442 --> 00:48:54,914
Wait a minute.
917
00:48:58,616 --> 00:49:02,059
It's uh... it must be a dog somewhere.
It's just a little dog in the courtyard.
918
00:49:02,184 --> 00:49:03,210
You know?
919
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,090
He's putting a piece of tape
over our mouths, don't worry
920
00:49:10,215 --> 00:49:12,476
with the tape on you won't
hear any screaming.
921
00:49:15,141 --> 00:49:16,651
Good, see?
922
00:49:16,776 --> 00:49:18,491
You can't hear anything.
923
00:49:31,957 --> 00:49:34,922
This gentlemen says he's in charge
of the electronic brain, Josef.
924
00:49:35,046 --> 00:49:36,082
We're not in charge.
925
00:49:36,207 --> 00:49:38,035
One of the technical
experts anyways.
926
00:49:38,464 --> 00:49:42,449
You talk about data and facts.
Well, crime is a fact isn't it?
927
00:49:42,573 --> 00:49:44,737
Suppose I committed a crime
or rather suppose I hadn't.
928
00:49:44,862 --> 00:49:46,603
Uncle Max, these men
are extremely busy.
929
00:49:46,729 --> 00:49:48,649
It seems they work in shifts
on the computer.
930
00:49:48,774 --> 00:49:51,623
Yes, our night people have
more leisure after eleven.
931
00:49:51,747 --> 00:49:52,751
- They could show him around.
- That's alright.
932
00:49:52,876 --> 00:49:53,664
Thank you, come on.
933
00:49:53,788 --> 00:49:57,257
I agree with you, Josef,
all these fancy electronics.
934
00:49:57,381 --> 00:50:00,023
They're alright in their place
but not for anything practical.
935
00:50:00,149 --> 00:50:01,279
Please, uncle Max.
936
00:50:01,404 --> 00:50:03,604
You're not gonna try to tell me
you think you can diddle
937
00:50:03,626 --> 00:50:06,212
your way out of a criminal charge
with an adding machine.
938
00:50:11,609 --> 00:50:13,184
Open up in there.
939
00:50:13,310 --> 00:50:15,430
We're friends of the advocate.
We've got to see him on
940
00:50:15,557 --> 00:50:18,089
very important business. I
don't care how busy he is.
941
00:50:18,214 --> 00:50:20,111
We've got to see him now.
942
00:50:25,594 --> 00:50:27,311
K's the name.
Announce him, will you.
943
00:50:27,436 --> 00:50:31,019
She doesn't look like a maid
to me more like a nurse.
944
00:50:31,145 --> 00:50:32,194
The advocate is ill.
945
00:50:32,318 --> 00:50:34,447
Ill? You say he's ill?
946
00:50:34,572 --> 00:50:38,050
His heart again I suppose.
He never was too healthy.
947
00:50:38,175 --> 00:50:41,052
This may be a strange hour to
be paying a professional call
948
00:50:41,176 --> 00:50:43,758
but good old Hastler isn't going
to hold that against us.
949
00:50:43,884 --> 00:50:46,160
We used to go to school together.
You've heard me speak of him.
950
00:50:46,286 --> 00:50:49,437
I know he had quite a
reputation in junior high.
951
00:50:50,893 --> 00:50:51,668
Leni?
952
00:50:51,791 --> 00:50:53,648
No Albert, it's me,
it's Max, Albert.
953
00:50:53,773 --> 00:50:57,037
Leni I told you I'm too
ill for visitors.
954
00:50:57,162 --> 00:50:59,743
Don't let these people in.
Go away.
955
00:50:59,866 --> 00:51:03,003
- Albert, don't you remember me?
- No.
956
00:51:03,130 --> 00:51:05,752
It's your old friend Max.
957
00:51:05,878 --> 00:51:07,917
- Who's that with you there?
- Albert?
958
00:51:08,041 --> 00:51:10,659
Hello Albert, what's
wrong? How did...
959
00:51:12,511 --> 00:51:15,999
Had another of your attacks?
Don't worry, you always get over them.
960
00:51:16,123 --> 00:51:17,856
Are they looking
after you properly?
961
00:51:17,982 --> 00:51:19,573
Terribly gloomy in here.
962
00:51:19,698 --> 00:51:21,055
No lights...
963
00:51:21,181 --> 00:51:23,136
power failure, of course but...
964
00:51:23,261 --> 00:51:25,893
And what about this
nurse of yours?
965
00:51:26,018 --> 00:51:28,591
Who, Leni?
966
00:51:28,716 --> 00:51:30,898
Leni is a good girl.
967
00:51:31,024 --> 00:51:32,930
Very good girl indeed.
968
00:51:33,518 --> 00:51:36,309
Leni takes excellent care of me.
969
00:51:36,435 --> 00:51:37,287
- Don't you, darling?
- Yes.
970
00:51:37,412 --> 00:51:39,335
Miss would you be kind enough to
leave us alone for a while.
971
00:51:39,459 --> 00:51:41,142
I must speak to the advocate
on personal business.
972
00:51:41,269 --> 00:51:42,791
You can say whatever you...
973
00:51:42,916 --> 00:51:44,276
You can't talk business
to him now.
974
00:51:44,384 --> 00:51:45,958
What you damn little...
975
00:51:50,130 --> 00:51:52,610
We can discuss anything...
976
00:51:52,735 --> 00:51:56,210
in front of Leni,
she's very, very...
977
00:51:56,335 --> 00:51:58,207
This doesn't concern myself.
978
00:51:58,332 --> 00:51:59,841
It's not my own private affair.
979
00:51:59,966 --> 00:52:01,334
Whom does it concern?
980
00:52:01,547 --> 00:52:03,694
My nephew. I brought him
here with me.
981
00:52:03,819 --> 00:52:04,819
Who?
982
00:52:04,944 --> 00:52:06,713
- Josef K.
- Whom?
983
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,402
Josef K...
984
00:52:14,485 --> 00:52:16,255
I didn't notice him.
985
00:52:16,380 --> 00:52:19,736
So... so you came to
see me about this case.
986
00:52:19,862 --> 00:52:20,553
That's good.
987
00:52:20,678 --> 00:52:23,420
It's a most interesting affair.
988
00:52:23,545 --> 00:52:24,581
Careful now, Josef.
989
00:52:24,704 --> 00:52:26,259
Then you know about my case already?
990
00:52:26,384 --> 00:52:27,571
How's that?
991
00:52:28,904 --> 00:52:31,028
I...
992
00:52:31,152 --> 00:52:32,711
couldn't understand.
993
00:52:34,624 --> 00:52:36,602
I'm the one that
doesn't understand.
994
00:52:36,727 --> 00:52:37,973
It is your case isn't it...
995
00:52:38,100 --> 00:52:39,948
you wanted to consult me about.
996
00:52:40,074 --> 00:52:41,799
Of course it is.
What's wrong with you.
997
00:52:41,923 --> 00:52:44,073
Mr. Hastler seems to have heard
about me and my case before
998
00:52:44,198 --> 00:52:45,454
we even thought of coming here.
999
00:52:45,578 --> 00:52:48,679
Oh, in the circles I move in,
all sorts of different cases
1000
00:52:48,803 --> 00:52:51,032
naturally come up in discussion,
and the more interesting ones
1001
00:52:51,157 --> 00:52:52,185
stick in my mind.
1002
00:52:52,312 --> 00:52:55,434
Particularly something concerning
the nephew of an old friend of mine.
1003
00:52:55,559 --> 00:52:57,683
Of course. That's logical, Josef.
1004
00:52:58,819 --> 00:53:00,968
You say you move
in these circles...
1005
00:53:02,361 --> 00:53:04,606
Does that mean you're actually
connected with the courts?
1006
00:53:04,731 --> 00:53:06,482
With whom else
should I associate...
1007
00:53:06,607 --> 00:53:08,918
if not with men of
my own profession.
1008
00:53:09,044 --> 00:53:11,437
That's a need incontrovertible.
1009
00:53:11,563 --> 00:53:14,390
I'm handicapped these
days by illness.
1010
00:53:14,515 --> 00:53:17,277
But good friends from the
law court still visit me here
1011
00:53:17,402 --> 00:53:20,116
from time to time when I'm in
a state to speak to them.
1012
00:53:20,741 --> 00:53:23,771
For instance there's a
dear friend of mine.
1013
00:53:23,896 --> 00:53:26,629
Visiting here at this
very moment.
1014
00:53:26,755 --> 00:53:29,087
We were chatting here together
when you two burst in and
1015
00:53:29,212 --> 00:53:30,830
took us by surprise.
1016
00:53:31,093 --> 00:53:33,916
He preferred to withdraw
with his chair and his table
1017
00:53:34,041 --> 00:53:35,420
into the corner.
1018
00:53:36,953 --> 00:53:39,576
The chief clerk
of the law court.
1019
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:42,182
Where?
1020
00:53:51,581 --> 00:53:54,144
I beg your pardon sir.
1021
00:53:54,270 --> 00:53:55,933
I forgot to introduce you.
1022
00:53:56,059 --> 00:53:58,118
This is my old friend K...
1023
00:53:58,244 --> 00:53:59,150
and his nephew.
1024
00:53:59,277 --> 00:54:02,163
I know sir that you're
interested in this case.
1025
00:54:02,290 --> 00:54:04,054
Josef K.
1026
00:54:04,179 --> 00:54:05,116
Leave us, Leni.
1027
00:54:05,241 --> 00:54:07,159
Naturally the chief clerk
is a very busy man...
1028
00:54:07,285 --> 00:54:08,885
but since this case
does concern us all
1029
00:54:09,010 --> 00:54:10,817
perhaps you stay for
a moment and advise us.
1030
00:54:10,943 --> 00:54:13,266
Oh my, yes we'd certainly
be honoured.
1031
00:54:13,391 --> 00:54:15,731
I can stay for only a few
minutes longer unfortunately.
1032
00:54:15,855 --> 00:54:18,889
It's clear, we know how
pressed you are for time.
1033
00:54:19,014 --> 00:54:22,975
The chief clerk will tell you,
my dear old friend...
1034
00:54:23,101 --> 00:54:25,315
I've defended a great
number of these cases, Max
1035
00:54:25,437 --> 00:54:28,344
and we've succeeded in
winning a few of them.
1036
00:54:28,468 --> 00:54:30,517
- At least partially.
- In parts of it...
1037
00:54:30,643 --> 00:54:32,803
The important thing now
is to get our first plea ready.
1038
00:54:32,887 --> 00:54:35,447
That often determines the whole
course of subsequent proceedings.
1039
00:54:35,469 --> 00:54:37,447
However, in actual practise
1040
00:54:37,572 --> 00:54:40,166
the first plea is not usually
read by the court at all.
1041
00:54:40,291 --> 00:54:41,862
Oh, and why is that?
1042
00:54:41,988 --> 00:54:44,001
Very often they simply...
1043
00:54:44,126 --> 00:54:45,384
file it away.
1044
00:54:50,987 --> 00:54:52,952
I think your friend here
should be warned
1045
00:54:53,078 --> 00:54:57,656
that the case of Josef K is likely to be
followed through any number of courts.
1046
00:54:57,780 --> 00:55:00,496
And sometimes the case
never reaches verdict...
1047
00:55:13,081 --> 00:55:15,463
I broke the glass.
1048
00:55:15,588 --> 00:55:17,128
Why did you do that?
1049
00:55:17,252 --> 00:55:19,623
To attract your attention.
1050
00:55:19,748 --> 00:55:22,006
I wanted you to come here to me.
1051
00:55:30,221 --> 00:55:31,473
I was thinking of you too.
1052
00:55:31,597 --> 00:55:34,037
In there you couldn't
keep your eyes off me.
1053
00:55:35,823 --> 00:55:38,373
And yet you'd like me to wait.
1054
00:55:38,874 --> 00:55:41,537
I couldn't just get up and walk
out of the room without any excuse.
1055
00:55:41,662 --> 00:55:42,835
No, no that's not mine.
1056
00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:45,102
You did it though.
1057
00:55:45,722 --> 00:55:47,950
Yes, I did. That's not my coat.
1058
00:55:49,001 --> 00:55:50,730
If you're going out
you'd better take this.
1059
00:55:50,856 --> 00:55:52,329
- No, no...
- You weren't wearing a coat.
1060
00:55:52,454 --> 00:55:54,094
- This is one of...
- I'm not going out...
1061
00:55:54,133 --> 00:55:57,260
I can't even stay here.
I've got to get back to them.
1062
00:56:00,619 --> 00:56:03,520
I know you don't really like me.
1063
00:56:03,647 --> 00:56:07,660
But I'm going to make love to you
and then you won't be able to go.
1064
00:56:08,970 --> 00:56:12,028
Yeah, but what will
I say back there?
1065
00:56:14,081 --> 00:56:16,094
You don't like me at all?
1066
00:56:17,571 --> 00:56:20,500
Well, like is a very feeble word.
1067
00:56:23,109 --> 00:56:25,064
You've got a sweetheart?
1068
00:56:25,189 --> 00:56:26,562
- No.
- I'll bet you do have one.
1069
00:56:26,633 --> 00:56:29,143
A boy like you is
bound to have somebody.
1070
00:56:31,395 --> 00:56:34,500
- Well as a matter of fact...
- Tell me about her.
1071
00:56:34,625 --> 00:56:36,351
Well there's not
much to tell really.
1072
00:56:36,476 --> 00:56:38,289
I don't even know where
she lives anymore.
1073
00:56:38,413 --> 00:56:41,109
- I've got a photograph...
- Ah, you've got a photograph.
1074
00:56:44,192 --> 00:56:46,630
What is she, some
kind of an actres?
1075
00:56:46,756 --> 00:56:48,122
No, a dancer.
1076
00:56:50,636 --> 00:56:52,837
She's not so young, is she...
1077
00:56:52,962 --> 00:56:55,783
I don't think I like her.
She looks hard and selfish.
1078
00:56:55,910 --> 00:56:59,593
A girl like that wouldn't be able
to sacrifice herself for a man.
1079
00:57:00,666 --> 00:57:03,037
Well certainly not for me.
1080
00:57:04,723 --> 00:57:07,507
Has she got any
physically defect?
1081
00:57:07,634 --> 00:57:08,658
What?
1082
00:57:08,783 --> 00:57:12,310
Has she got any
physically defect?
1083
00:57:12,935 --> 00:57:14,552
Why no, of course not.
1084
00:57:16,017 --> 00:57:19,685
If you don't know where she's scarred
I guess she doesn't mean much to you
1085
00:57:19,812 --> 00:57:22,007
or you'd find out.
1086
00:57:22,133 --> 00:57:23,438
I'll find out.
1087
00:57:29,525 --> 00:57:32,222
I've got a physical defect.
1088
00:57:33,669 --> 00:57:34,722
I'll show you.
1089
00:57:34,846 --> 00:57:36,187
Come on.
1090
00:57:57,752 --> 00:57:59,834
Look.
1091
00:57:59,961 --> 00:58:02,829
The skin between my
two middle fingers.
1092
00:58:07,737 --> 00:58:09,423
Like a web.
1093
00:58:09,549 --> 00:58:11,479
A web...
1094
00:58:11,605 --> 00:58:13,427
What a pretty little palm.
1095
00:58:30,054 --> 00:58:32,089
You'd better go.
1096
00:58:32,214 --> 00:58:34,659
Go? I just got in.
1097
00:58:35,333 --> 00:58:37,573
I'll say you weren't
feeling well or something...
1098
00:58:37,699 --> 00:58:39,335
that you needed some fresh air.
1099
00:58:40,753 --> 00:58:41,765
I'll be back in a minute.
1100
00:58:41,890 --> 00:58:43,927
To let you out I've
got to get the keys.
1101
00:58:44,053 --> 00:58:44,956
The keys?
1102
00:58:45,082 --> 00:58:46,207
Are we locked in here?
1103
00:58:46,332 --> 00:58:48,631
I don't want you locked out.
1104
00:58:48,756 --> 00:58:52,567
The keys are to let you in
yourself, during the nights.
1105
00:58:52,694 --> 00:58:54,289
Whenever you feel like it.
1106
00:58:54,414 --> 00:58:55,646
Good.
1107
00:59:01,168 --> 00:59:02,160
Who's that?
1108
00:59:02,284 --> 00:59:03,655
- What, that picture?
- Yes.
1109
00:59:05,554 --> 00:59:07,120
That could be my
judge I suppose.
1110
00:59:07,244 --> 00:59:08,742
I know him.
1111
00:59:08,867 --> 00:59:10,891
He's not a big man like that.
1112
00:59:11,017 --> 00:59:12,256
He's little...
1113
00:59:12,381 --> 00:59:13,599
almost a dwarf.
1114
00:59:16,325 --> 00:59:19,142
But look the way he
had himself painted.
1115
00:59:20,137 --> 00:59:21,515
He's vain...
1116
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:23,969
of course, like
everybody else here.
1117
00:59:24,844 --> 00:59:26,539
I'm vain myself...
1118
00:59:26,664 --> 00:59:29,598
and it bothers me that you don't
like me more than you do.
1119
00:59:29,723 --> 00:59:32,261
You mean you've got high court judges
coming here to see you?
1120
00:59:32,385 --> 00:59:35,011
Oh no, he's just an
examining magistrate.
1121
00:59:35,136 --> 00:59:37,485
Only an examining magistrate?
1122
00:59:37,610 --> 00:59:40,868
Boy, the higher officials certainly
keep themselves well hidden.
1123
00:59:41,509 --> 00:59:45,388
These fancy robes and the gown
are just an invention.
1124
00:59:45,514 --> 00:59:50,792
Actually he sits on a kitchen chair with
an old hose wrapped ragged under him.
1125
01:00:00,922 --> 01:00:02,276
- Ow!
- Do you always be...
1126
01:00:02,401 --> 01:00:04,135
brooding over your case.
1127
01:00:04,261 --> 01:00:06,234
Probably, I don't think
enough about it.
1128
01:00:06,359 --> 01:00:09,321
No, that's not the mistake
you're making.
1129
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:14,209
You're too stubborn and too much of a
troublemaker, that's what I hear.
1130
01:00:14,334 --> 01:00:16,411
Who told you that?
1131
01:00:16,535 --> 01:00:19,099
You mustn't ask me for names.
1132
01:00:19,224 --> 01:00:23,496
Just take my warning to heart and try
to be a little more cooperative.
1133
01:00:23,621 --> 01:00:26,002
Cooperative? Oh, brother...
1134
01:00:44,936 --> 01:00:48,175
The first chance you get you ought
to make your confession.
1135
01:00:49,689 --> 01:00:53,327
Till you do that there isn't a hope
of getting out of their clutches.
1136
01:00:54,685 --> 01:00:57,124
Not a hope...
1137
01:00:57,248 --> 01:00:59,959
and even then you will need
a lot of help from the outside.
1138
01:01:00,084 --> 01:01:01,250
- Leni!
- Josef!
1139
01:01:01,376 --> 01:01:03,302
Leni!
1140
01:01:03,643 --> 01:01:04,278
Josef!
1141
01:01:04,402 --> 01:01:05,726
Leni, where are you...
1142
01:01:05,850 --> 01:01:07,016
Leni, darling...
1143
01:01:07,141 --> 01:01:08,694
Chief Clerk is leaving...
1144
01:01:08,819 --> 01:01:10,535
accompany him to the door.
1145
01:01:10,660 --> 01:01:12,564
- Goodnight Clerk.
- Goodnight.
1146
01:01:12,689 --> 01:01:15,580
- Goodnight, it's getting late.
- Albert, please go one with...
1147
01:01:15,706 --> 01:01:17,255
what you were saying
about advocates.
1148
01:01:17,380 --> 01:01:20,364
Advocates, they do everything
they can to discourage us.
1149
01:01:20,490 --> 01:01:24,230
You should see the room they have
for advocates in the law courts.
1150
01:01:24,355 --> 01:01:26,009
- Small. They have...
- No...
1151
01:01:26,133 --> 01:01:28,671
There's a tiny
skylight up high...
1152
01:01:31,006 --> 01:01:33,476
...some other advocate
to hoist you up on his back.
1153
01:01:33,602 --> 01:01:35,883
For more than a year now
there's been a hole in the floor.
1154
01:01:35,989 --> 01:01:36,700
A hole, Albert?
1155
01:01:36,824 --> 01:01:39,379
Not quite big enough to fall through
or if you stumble into it.
1156
01:01:39,504 --> 01:01:41,979
You find yourself with your leg
hanging out of the...
1157
01:01:43,390 --> 01:01:45,485
The very place where all
your clients have to worry.
1158
01:01:45,609 --> 01:01:47,057
I had no idea of the difficulties.
1159
01:01:47,181 --> 01:01:49,053
Sure, sure. It's all...
1160
01:01:52,268 --> 01:01:53,590
really humiliating.
1161
01:01:54,465 --> 01:01:57,588
I only wish my nephew could
be hearing all this.
1162
01:02:28,582 --> 01:02:30,031
- Who's that man?
- What man?
1163
01:02:30,157 --> 01:02:32,752
- That man in there
- You shouldn't have opened that door.
1164
01:02:34,186 --> 01:02:36,302
- Well who is he?
- Oh, him he doesn't matter.
1165
01:02:36,426 --> 01:02:37,746
- Come here.
- What do you mean...
1166
01:02:37,836 --> 01:02:39,285
he doesn't matter.
1167
01:02:40,262 --> 01:02:42,702
Oh no... I've got to go.
1168
01:02:44,605 --> 01:02:45,896
Alright.
1169
01:02:46,816 --> 01:02:48,396
These are the back stairs.
1170
01:02:48,522 --> 01:02:50,832
You'd better pretend you'd been
waiting on the street.
1171
01:02:52,577 --> 01:02:54,213
Say you'd began to feel faint
1172
01:02:54,339 --> 01:02:55,539
and you needed some fresh air.
1173
01:02:55,638 --> 01:02:57,690
- What's he doing in there?
- Waiting.
1174
01:02:57,815 --> 01:02:58,825
He's a client.
1175
01:03:02,063 --> 01:03:03,457
Here's your key.
1176
01:03:08,267 --> 01:03:09,607
Leni!
1177
01:03:19,376 --> 01:03:21,194
Well, Josef, well...
1178
01:03:21,319 --> 01:03:21,899
Well what?
1179
01:03:22,024 --> 01:03:24,380
You know that the nurse
is the advocates mistress?
1180
01:03:24,506 --> 01:03:27,885
You're facing a criminal charge.
Do you want to make enemies?
1181
01:03:28,011 --> 01:03:29,512
Do you want to lose your case?
1182
01:03:52,947 --> 01:03:54,384
Looking for somebody?
1183
01:03:54,509 --> 01:03:55,735
What's wrong?
1184
01:03:55,860 --> 01:03:57,629
Isn't the court in session?
1185
01:03:57,755 --> 01:03:59,223
Not today.
1186
01:03:59,349 --> 01:04:00,589
Why isn't the court in session?
1187
01:04:00,692 --> 01:04:02,551
- They'll be sitting tomorrow.
- You sure?
1188
01:04:02,675 --> 01:04:03,955
Sure, my husband
is a guard here.
1189
01:04:04,038 --> 01:04:04,675
Guard?
1190
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:05,930
The man who was
kissing you is a...
1191
01:04:06,056 --> 01:04:07,523
That wasn't my husband
who was kissing me
1192
01:04:07,647 --> 01:04:09,406
that was a law student.
1193
01:04:09,530 --> 01:04:12,055
He's just a law student but
even so he's got influence.
1194
01:04:12,180 --> 01:04:13,153
Influence, huh?
1195
01:04:13,279 --> 01:04:14,519
He's kind of important already.
1196
01:04:14,624 --> 01:04:15,641
He must be...
1197
01:04:15,767 --> 01:04:18,364
You were making love right there
in the middle of the whole damn crowd.
1198
01:04:18,489 --> 01:04:20,609
Yeah, I guess we ruined that
speech you were making...
1199
01:04:20,697 --> 01:04:22,034
but what could I do about it?
1200
01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:24,199
Once he gets started it's...
1201
01:04:24,323 --> 01:04:26,385
Hey! You can't touch
those books.
1202
01:04:26,510 --> 01:04:28,387
They belong to the
examining magistrate.
1203
01:04:29,077 --> 01:04:31,420
It's not my fault.
It's the rules.
1204
01:04:32,855 --> 01:04:34,437
You do remember me, don't you?
1205
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:36,284
From last night?
1206
01:04:36,410 --> 01:04:37,847
My name is Hilda.
1207
01:04:37,971 --> 01:04:41,461
These are probably law books and
of course I mustn't read any law.
1208
01:04:41,587 --> 01:04:43,972
I must be condemned
not only in ignorance...
1209
01:04:44,098 --> 01:04:45,941
How dirty they are.
1210
01:04:52,315 --> 01:04:54,295
Wow, they really are dirty.
1211
01:04:58,180 --> 01:05:00,808
And these are the men that
sit in judgement on me.
1212
01:05:00,932 --> 01:05:01,858
Listen.
1213
01:05:01,983 --> 01:05:03,253
I'll help you.
1214
01:05:03,379 --> 01:05:04,535
Wouldn't you like me to?
1215
01:05:04,661 --> 01:05:07,733
I don't see how you can if your
husband is a courtroom guard here.
1216
01:05:07,860 --> 01:05:10,944
I want to help you. That's
why I came in here...
1217
01:05:11,532 --> 01:05:13,356
even though, it's forbidden.
1218
01:05:13,482 --> 01:05:14,236
Well, that's very nice of you...
1219
01:05:14,361 --> 01:05:16,088
But I wouldn't want you
to get into any trouble.
1220
01:05:16,212 --> 01:05:18,510
No, you mustn't go
away like that...
1221
01:05:18,636 --> 01:05:19,680
not yet.
1222
01:05:19,804 --> 01:05:22,096
You got the wrong
ideas about me.
1223
01:05:22,714 --> 01:05:24,312
Am I such a nothing
in your eyes that
1224
01:05:24,438 --> 01:05:27,252
you won't stay just a little
longer when I ask you?
1225
01:05:27,782 --> 01:05:29,953
Well I've got plenty of time.
I only came here thinking
1226
01:05:30,079 --> 01:05:32,188
the court would be in session.
1227
01:05:32,891 --> 01:05:36,316
You mustn't be offended when I ask you
not to try to do anything about my case.
1228
01:05:36,441 --> 01:05:38,113
The truth is, I don't care
at all who it comes out.
1229
01:05:38,239 --> 01:05:40,039
And if they sentence me,
I just laugh at them.
1230
01:05:40,367 --> 01:05:41,662
Oh, not that it'll ever
come to that.
1231
01:05:41,787 --> 01:05:43,747
Or they might make a show
out of carrying it on in
1232
01:05:43,796 --> 01:05:46,108
the hope of eventually getting money
out of me, but their wasting their time.
1233
01:05:46,232 --> 01:05:47,032
I can tell you that.
1234
01:05:47,110 --> 01:05:48,641
There's one thing
you could do for me.
1235
01:05:48,767 --> 01:05:51,332
Tell that examining magistrate
of yours that nothing on Earth
1236
01:05:51,458 --> 01:05:53,866
could ever induce me to give
money to those precious judges.
1237
01:05:53,992 --> 01:05:55,333
No.
1238
01:05:56,335 --> 01:05:58,616
Yeah, but you said the only ones who
could do you any good
1239
01:05:58,691 --> 01:05:59,894
were the higher ups.
1240
01:06:00,020 --> 01:06:01,825
I'm afraid so.
1241
01:06:01,950 --> 01:06:04,244
Still, you could always write
a report and they must go up
1242
01:06:04,369 --> 01:06:06,187
to the real authorities.
1243
01:06:06,311 --> 01:06:08,447
Last night for instance
when the others had left
1244
01:06:08,573 --> 01:06:12,087
he stayed on here,
real late writing away.
1245
01:06:12,212 --> 01:06:15,391
He even turned off the mains
and I had to bring in a candle.
1246
01:06:15,517 --> 01:06:17,799
Then my husband came home...
1247
01:06:17,925 --> 01:06:20,285
and we started to move the
furniture back in place.
1248
01:06:20,411 --> 01:06:23,714
Neighbours came in with some beer
and we got to talking by candle light.
1249
01:06:23,839 --> 01:06:27,494
And we just forgot about the
examining magistrate altogether.
1250
01:06:28,655 --> 01:06:31,892
Then, in the middle of the night
I woke up, and there he was.
1251
01:06:32,016 --> 01:06:34,470
Standing by our bed shielding
the candle with his hands
1252
01:06:34,596 --> 01:06:37,121
to keep the light from
hitting my husband.
1253
01:06:37,245 --> 01:06:42,225
Not that he needed to bother. Once my
husband gets to sleep nothing, wakes him.
1254
01:06:42,351 --> 01:06:44,684
I was so startled
I almost let out a yell
1255
01:06:44,810 --> 01:06:47,535
but the magistrate
he was real kind to me.
1256
01:06:47,661 --> 01:06:50,733
He whispered he'd been
in there all the time, writing.
1257
01:06:50,858 --> 01:06:53,118
And now he'd come in
to return the candle.
1258
01:06:53,243 --> 01:06:57,362
And as long as he lived, he told me
he'd never forget the picture I made.
1259
01:06:57,487 --> 01:06:58,781
That's what he said.
1260
01:06:58,906 --> 01:07:01,311
The picture I made
lying asleep in the bed.
1261
01:07:01,436 --> 01:07:03,430
I just tell you this to
show you how busy he is
1262
01:07:03,556 --> 01:07:06,540
writing out these
great, long, big reports.
1263
01:07:06,665 --> 01:07:08,780
The one last night must've
been about you,
1264
01:07:08,904 --> 01:07:10,830
and somebody must read it.
1265
01:07:10,955 --> 01:07:13,695
Besides, he's starting to
take an interest in me.
1266
01:07:13,819 --> 01:07:15,808
So maybe a can do you
some good, huh?
1267
01:07:15,933 --> 01:07:18,806
This morning he sent me a pair
of stockings for the law student.
1268
01:07:18,930 --> 01:07:21,038
Want to see? I've got them on now.
1269
01:07:21,896 --> 01:07:22,919
Look out.
1270
01:07:24,990 --> 01:07:25,506
It's Bert.
1271
01:07:25,583 --> 01:07:27,519
- Bert?
- I know, he's ugly.
1272
01:07:27,644 --> 01:07:29,603
Did you get a look at
those legs of his.
1273
01:07:29,727 --> 01:07:30,459
Yeah.
1274
01:07:30,584 --> 01:07:33,250
All the same I've got to
go and be with him now.
1275
01:07:33,374 --> 01:07:34,699
I'll come back soon.
1276
01:07:34,824 --> 01:07:36,945
And then I'll go with you
wherever you like...
1277
01:07:37,070 --> 01:07:40,000
and you can do with me
whatever you want.
1278
01:07:40,126 --> 01:07:40,926
What's wrong?
1279
01:07:41,051 --> 01:07:42,706
Don't you believe me?
1280
01:07:44,073 --> 01:07:45,842
Why should I?
1281
01:07:47,307 --> 01:07:48,979
This could be a trap.
1282
01:07:49,103 --> 01:07:50,655
- Are you afraid?
- Who is this law student?
1283
01:07:50,781 --> 01:07:52,473
A kind of henchman of the magistrates?
1284
01:07:52,598 --> 01:07:54,621
- What of it?
- I... I...
1285
01:07:54,747 --> 01:07:56,044
I was thinking
1286
01:07:56,170 --> 01:07:57,763
Don't think.
1287
01:08:02,037 --> 01:08:05,837
It'd be kind of a nice revenge to
take you away from both of them.
1288
01:08:06,773 --> 01:08:08,216
Why not?
1289
01:08:08,341 --> 01:08:11,637
Then some night after the magistrate
after he's been staying up late
1290
01:08:11,761 --> 01:08:14,824
filling up those long,
lying reports about me.
1291
01:08:15,397 --> 01:08:17,817
I'd come to your bedside...
1292
01:08:27,893 --> 01:08:29,460
Why don't you go?
1293
01:08:29,585 --> 01:08:31,329
You should've left
the minute I came in.
1294
01:08:31,455 --> 01:08:32,934
You think so?
1295
01:08:33,059 --> 01:08:35,092
That's what you're
supposed to do.
1296
01:08:35,215 --> 01:08:37,938
When I come in you get
the hell out of here.
1297
01:08:40,285 --> 01:08:41,346
Well...
1298
01:08:41,471 --> 01:08:45,688
I seem to detect the insolence of
a future official of the court.
1299
01:08:45,813 --> 01:08:48,569
You shouldn't be allowed to
run around like this at large.
1300
01:08:48,695 --> 01:08:51,322
That was a mistake,
I told the magistrate.
1301
01:08:51,446 --> 01:08:54,343
- Come on.
- Don't try to be funny.
1302
01:08:54,470 --> 01:08:55,948
Come on.
1303
01:08:58,396 --> 01:08:59,838
Wait a minute.
1304
01:09:01,623 --> 01:09:03,258
- No you.
- What do you mean?
1305
01:09:03,384 --> 01:09:04,654
He sent for me. What
can we do about it?
1306
01:09:04,779 --> 01:09:06,765
- Who sent for you?
- The examining magistrate.
1307
01:09:06,891 --> 01:09:08,769
- The examining magistrate?
- He's a monster, and this...
1308
01:09:08,893 --> 01:09:11,219
ugly monster he won't let me go.
1309
01:09:15,133 --> 01:09:17,909
Sorry, what can I do?
1310
01:09:22,890 --> 01:09:23,998
Now listen...
1311
01:09:24,124 --> 01:09:25,812
Leave him alone.
You want to ruin me?
1312
01:09:25,937 --> 01:09:28,608
He's just obeying the orders
of the examining magistrate.
1313
01:09:28,734 --> 01:09:30,708
Alright, alright take her.
1314
01:09:30,835 --> 01:09:32,249
You lied to me, didn't you?
1315
01:09:32,375 --> 01:09:33,846
- Why should I lie?
- You're not being...
1316
01:09:33,971 --> 01:09:35,642
taken to the
examining magistrate.
1317
01:09:35,767 --> 01:09:37,023
- Yes I am.
- You mean to tell me...
1318
01:09:37,147 --> 01:09:40,560
that the examining magistrate is
waiting for you in a place like that.
1319
01:09:40,686 --> 01:09:42,659
Of course he is! These are
the law court offices.
1320
01:09:42,784 --> 01:09:44,162
Where else do think he would be?
1321
01:09:44,288 --> 01:09:46,009
Law court offices?
1322
01:09:46,135 --> 01:09:48,029
In a place like...
1323
01:09:51,167 --> 01:09:51,667
Hell.
1324
01:10:12,507 --> 01:10:14,743
You are the defendant?
1325
01:10:14,868 --> 01:10:16,911
My name is K.
1326
01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:18,930
You're...
1327
01:10:19,056 --> 01:10:20,650
the courtroom guard.
1328
01:10:20,774 --> 01:10:22,507
Yes, I'm her husband.
1329
01:10:23,046 --> 01:10:24,495
It's Sunday night.
1330
01:10:27,655 --> 01:10:30,078
I'm not supposed to
work on Sunday night.
1331
01:10:30,201 --> 01:10:33,128
But just to get me out of the way
they send me off on these long
1332
01:10:33,254 --> 01:10:34,586
useless errands.
1333
01:10:36,954 --> 01:10:38,306
That student...
1334
01:10:39,740 --> 01:10:42,223
if my job didn't depend on it
1335
01:10:42,348 --> 01:10:46,464
I would have squashed him flat
against the wall here, long ago.
1336
01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:49,395
Right there...
1337
01:10:49,518 --> 01:10:51,416
just a little bit
above the floor.
1338
01:10:52,277 --> 01:10:54,538
All splashed in blood...
1339
01:10:54,660 --> 01:10:59,364
with his arms and his fingers
and those bandy legs of his...
1340
01:10:59,489 --> 01:11:03,025
all twisted out and writhing...
1341
01:11:03,152 --> 01:11:06,762
like a smashed cockroach.
1342
01:11:10,924 --> 01:11:13,533
He used to carry her
for his own pleasure
1343
01:11:13,658 --> 01:11:16,641
but now it's the
examining magistrate's.
1344
01:11:16,767 --> 01:11:18,249
Isn't she to blame as well?
1345
01:11:19,107 --> 01:11:20,651
She throws herself at him.
1346
01:11:20,776 --> 01:11:23,336
And in my position there is
nothing that I can do about it
1347
01:11:23,462 --> 01:11:26,453
but if somebody had given
him a good thrashing just once.
1348
01:11:26,580 --> 01:11:28,234
He's a coward, you know?
1349
01:11:28,357 --> 01:11:30,309
He'd never touch her again.
1350
01:11:30,435 --> 01:11:33,264
Only a man like you could do it.
1351
01:11:33,388 --> 01:11:34,682
A man like me?
1352
01:11:35,524 --> 01:11:36,242
What do you mean?
1353
01:11:36,366 --> 01:11:38,166
- They've arrested you, haven't they?
- Yes.
1354
01:11:38,291 --> 01:11:38,966
Well then...
1355
01:11:39,091 --> 01:11:40,745
My being under arrest gives me
all that much more...
1356
01:11:40,870 --> 01:11:42,043
reason to be afraid of him.
1357
01:11:42,168 --> 01:11:44,322
I heard about that
speech of yours.
1358
01:11:44,446 --> 01:11:45,703
What about it?
1359
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:50,547
I wouldn't have thought
you'd be afraid at all.
1360
01:11:51,242 --> 01:11:53,977
I'm not... I'm not afraid
not of him personally.
1361
01:11:54,309 --> 01:11:55,827
I'm not afraid of any of them.
1362
01:11:55,954 --> 01:11:57,731
But he does have influence,
or so they say.
1363
01:11:57,855 --> 01:11:59,527
He certainly isn't sticking up
for the examining magistrate.
1364
01:11:59,652 --> 01:12:01,518
And god knows my case is
prejudiced enough already...
1365
01:12:01,643 --> 01:12:03,711
As a rule, none of our
cases are prejudiced.
1366
01:12:03,835 --> 01:12:06,228
Well I'm afraid I'd have to
disagree with you about that.
1367
01:12:07,606 --> 01:12:10,326
But it wouldn't necessarily stop me
from taking care of that student.
1368
01:12:10,379 --> 01:12:12,844
I'd be very grateful
if you would. Come.
1369
01:12:12,967 --> 01:12:14,084
Come.
1370
01:12:32,505 --> 01:12:34,676
These are the law court offices.
1371
01:12:39,937 --> 01:12:43,527
That's where they are,
my wife and the magistrate.
1372
01:12:46,848 --> 01:12:48,921
I don't have a key...
1373
01:12:49,046 --> 01:12:50,200
for this one.
1374
01:13:06,116 --> 01:13:07,719
Who are these people?
1375
01:13:08,903 --> 01:13:10,896
The accused.
1376
01:13:38,575 --> 01:13:40,909
- You, why are you here?
- I'm waiting.
1377
01:13:41,036 --> 01:13:42,558
What is it you're waiting for?
1378
01:13:42,682 --> 01:13:46,834
Yes, I handed in several affidavits
that was some time ago.
1379
01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:48,753
I'm waiting here for the result.
1380
01:13:48,879 --> 01:13:51,056
You certainly seem to be taking a
good deal of trouble over it.
1381
01:13:51,182 --> 01:13:53,109
Well yes, you see, it's my case.
1382
01:13:53,236 --> 01:13:55,304
I'm under arrest, you don't
see me putting up affidavits.
1383
01:13:55,429 --> 01:13:57,195
What makes you think that
kind of thing is necessary?
1384
01:13:57,321 --> 01:14:01,776
I can't say exactly, but
I handed in my affidavits.
1385
01:14:01,901 --> 01:14:04,649
You don't believe
I'm under arrest.
1386
01:14:04,775 --> 01:14:07,111
- Oh yes, certainly.
- Why not? Why don't...
1387
01:14:07,235 --> 01:14:08,870
you believe I'm under arrest?
1388
01:14:12,319 --> 01:14:14,788
What do you take me for?
1389
01:14:14,914 --> 01:14:16,792
You think I'm a judge?
1390
01:14:28,104 --> 01:14:31,002
Back to the seats, all of you!
Keep the passage clear!
1391
01:14:36,873 --> 01:14:40,099
Can you tell me how to get out of here?
I've had enough of this place.
1392
01:14:40,223 --> 01:14:43,060
You're going already but you've
hardly seen anything yet.
1393
01:14:43,184 --> 01:14:45,451
I don't want to.
I just want to get out of here.
1394
01:14:45,576 --> 01:14:46,909
Well...
1395
01:14:47,036 --> 01:14:50,215
You keep to the right
through that passage
1396
01:14:50,339 --> 01:14:53,926
and then you go...
to the second corner
1397
01:14:54,050 --> 01:14:57,218
and then left along the
lobby to the fourth.
1398
01:14:57,343 --> 01:14:59,606
You'd better show me yourself.
There's so many passages and...
1399
01:14:59,732 --> 01:15:01,273
lobbies I'll never find the way.
1400
01:15:01,398 --> 01:15:04,117
I've got the message to deliver and I've
lost a whole lot of time because of you.
1401
01:15:04,243 --> 01:15:05,929
- Come with me!
- Not so loud.
1402
01:15:06,055 --> 01:15:07,895
You want to bring all the
officials down on us?
1403
01:15:07,950 --> 01:15:09,946
Suppose they ask who you are.
Then you'll have to admit...
1404
01:15:10,070 --> 01:15:11,110
you're one of the accused.
1405
01:15:11,212 --> 01:15:14,145
- I'm not trying to hide it.
- Well then...
1406
01:15:14,270 --> 01:15:16,962
- What do I tell them?
- The truth maybe.
1407
01:15:17,087 --> 01:15:19,220
But I only came here because
I wanted to see if the inside
1408
01:15:19,346 --> 01:15:23,307
of this famous legal system was as
loathsome as I guessed it was.
1409
01:15:23,959 --> 01:15:27,351
And now I'm too depressed to
want to see anything more.
1410
01:15:27,476 --> 01:15:29,763
I just want to get out of here
and be alone.
1411
01:16:01,183 --> 01:16:02,663
What's wrong?
You feel a little dizzy?
1412
01:16:02,763 --> 01:16:03,424
Yes.
1413
01:16:03,549 --> 01:16:07,329
Oh, don't worry. Almost everybody has an
attack like that on their first visit.
1414
01:16:07,453 --> 01:16:08,489
It's the air.
1415
01:16:08,614 --> 01:16:11,136
That too, and also all sorts of
washing is hung up here to dry.
1416
01:16:11,261 --> 01:16:14,558
You can't forbid the tenets
to wash their dirty items.
1417
01:16:14,684 --> 01:16:18,018
There's just nothing we can
do about that, I'm afraid.
1418
01:16:18,931 --> 01:16:20,475
Where are you going?
1419
01:16:26,195 --> 01:16:28,155
Do you want me to have
you taken to the sick room?
1420
01:16:28,209 --> 01:16:29,230
Please don't...
1421
01:16:32,344 --> 01:16:34,350
I'd be fine if I could
just get some air.
1422
01:16:34,474 --> 01:16:36,008
It's not far now.
1423
01:16:36,134 --> 01:16:38,567
Here's the door right
in front of you.
1424
01:16:41,239 --> 01:16:43,161
Why don't you go out?
That's what you wanted.
1425
01:16:43,286 --> 01:16:44,391
Yes...
1426
01:16:44,515 --> 01:16:45,920
Thank you.
1427
01:16:50,936 --> 01:16:52,908
I'm not used to fresh air.
1428
01:17:17,762 --> 01:17:19,674
Hello.
1429
01:17:19,799 --> 01:17:21,238
Irmie.
1430
01:17:21,362 --> 01:17:22,466
What are you doing here?
1431
01:17:22,591 --> 01:17:25,050
- Well, I've been looking for you.
- What, why?
1432
01:17:25,510 --> 01:17:27,868
Uncle Max I suppose
checking up on me.
1433
01:17:27,994 --> 01:17:30,344
He keeps writing, nagging
at me for news.
1434
01:17:30,469 --> 01:17:33,149
He hasn't heard a thing about
your case for a long time now.
1435
01:17:33,274 --> 01:17:35,419
So naturally, he's worried.
We all are...
1436
01:17:35,544 --> 01:17:38,371
Well, tell him not to worry.
1437
01:17:38,497 --> 01:17:41,947
Gee, I gotta write something.
Just something...
1438
01:17:42,073 --> 01:17:45,656
- Tell him everything is under control.
- But, is it?
1439
01:17:45,780 --> 01:17:48,302
- I don't know, I...
- I hate to be a drag...
1440
01:17:48,365 --> 01:17:50,726
but you know what he's like,
how he carries on about things.
1441
01:17:50,850 --> 01:17:53,520
Now it's the honour of the family
and all that jazz.
1442
01:17:53,644 --> 01:17:56,671
- Maybe he's right...
- Oh, shit.
1443
01:17:58,047 --> 01:18:00,247
Ignore me, I hope you didn't say
what I thought you did.
1444
01:18:00,356 --> 01:18:03,337
You shouldn't use that kind of language,
Irmie. How old are you anyway?
1445
01:18:03,464 --> 01:18:04,478
Sixteen, practically.
1446
01:18:04,604 --> 01:18:05,936
You're fifteen, hardly that.
1447
01:18:06,061 --> 01:18:07,438
You certainly shouldn't have
come out here alone.
1448
01:18:07,564 --> 01:18:10,136
I wouldn't be here if my cousin hadn't
got himself in trouble with the law.
1449
01:18:10,261 --> 01:18:11,726
Don't they check up on
you in that school?
1450
01:18:11,852 --> 01:18:12,696
They try to.
1451
01:18:12,822 --> 01:18:14,421
You sneak out after hours,
is that it?
1452
01:18:14,545 --> 01:18:16,197
You're not the only
crook in the family.
1453
01:18:16,321 --> 01:18:18,201
- That's not a very funny joke Irmie
- Okay, you write home, and say...
1454
01:18:18,325 --> 01:18:19,909
what a delinquent I am.
1455
01:18:20,034 --> 01:18:23,266
But what do I say about you?
There must be some kind of news.
1456
01:18:24,747 --> 01:18:26,270
Well I...
1457
01:18:26,396 --> 01:18:29,074
I'm thinking very seriously of getting
rid of your father's old school chum.
1458
01:18:29,199 --> 01:18:30,718
You can tell him that.
1459
01:18:30,843 --> 01:18:33,583
I can't see that the famous advocate
Hastler is doing anything for me
1460
01:18:33,708 --> 01:18:35,322
except encourage the delay.
1461
01:18:35,448 --> 01:18:37,002
But he's your lawyer!
1462
01:18:37,128 --> 01:18:38,722
How can you get rid of your lawyer?
1463
01:18:38,847 --> 01:18:40,848
Easy, just dismiss
him from the case.
1464
01:18:42,432 --> 01:18:43,690
And then what?
1465
01:18:44,367 --> 01:18:46,047
I don't know.
1466
01:18:46,172 --> 01:18:48,174
Isn't there something more definite
I can write home about?
1467
01:18:48,298 --> 01:18:50,466
- No, nothing definite.
- You've got to have a lawyer don't you?
1468
01:18:50,591 --> 01:18:52,181
Influence, that's all that
counts in the long run.
1469
01:18:52,306 --> 01:18:54,733
Hastler is always bragging about
his personal connections...
1470
01:18:54,857 --> 01:18:56,879
but what's he really up to?
1471
01:18:57,003 --> 01:18:58,926
Besides, I'm not exactly stupid.
I can defend myself.
1472
01:18:59,049 --> 01:19:00,376
Look at the position
I've got at the office.
1473
01:19:00,499 --> 01:19:02,168
Don't be surprised if you
hear any day now
1474
01:19:02,293 --> 01:19:04,899
that I've become deputy manager
of my entire department.
1475
01:19:05,024 --> 01:19:07,169
Well, all I've got to do is to
apply those same abilities...
1476
01:19:07,294 --> 01:19:08,480
to this case of mine.
1477
01:19:08,605 --> 01:19:10,552
So I get rid of the advocate
I can draw up my own plan
1478
01:19:10,677 --> 01:19:12,423
and keep after the
officials myself.
1479
01:19:13,336 --> 01:19:15,906
Well, this is where
I leave you, Irmie.
1480
01:19:16,031 --> 01:19:17,550
You're not going to
work now are you?
1481
01:19:17,675 --> 01:19:20,235
Things keep piling up. This case
is taking such a lot of my time.
1482
01:19:20,301 --> 01:19:21,871
I've really got to finish
my work somehow...
1483
01:19:21,997 --> 01:19:24,515
I don't like to leave you alone. I really
ought to walk you back to your school.
1484
01:19:24,640 --> 01:19:26,400
That's all I needed...
to be seen with a man.
1485
01:19:26,515 --> 01:19:27,394
But, I'm your cousin.
1486
01:19:27,518 --> 01:19:28,768
Cousins get married.
1487
01:19:28,893 --> 01:19:30,161
You wouldn't want to
marry a criminal.
1488
01:19:30,287 --> 01:19:32,099
Crooks get married too.
1489
01:19:34,189 --> 01:19:36,048
- So long now.
- So long, Josef.
1490
01:19:55,432 --> 01:19:56,740
It's him.
1491
01:20:00,254 --> 01:20:01,651
- Who are you?
- My name is Bloch.
1492
01:20:01,777 --> 01:20:04,599
- Are you employed here?
- Oh no, I'm only a client.
1493
01:20:04,724 --> 01:20:07,018
I don't belong to the house,
I'm just here on business.
1494
01:20:07,143 --> 01:20:09,303
- Your shirt sleeves...
- Excuse me, please.
1495
01:20:09,429 --> 01:20:11,901
- What have you been doing, making love to Leni?
- No.
1496
01:20:12,027 --> 01:20:13,010
No.
1497
01:20:13,134 --> 01:20:14,974
Well anyway you don't look
like and honest man.
1498
01:20:15,050 --> 01:20:16,530
What did you say your
name was, Bloch?
1499
01:20:16,632 --> 01:20:17,872
Yes, Bloch.
1500
01:20:17,999 --> 01:20:21,321
- That's your real name?
- Of course, why shouldn't it be?
1501
01:20:21,445 --> 01:20:25,064
I don't know, you might have
some reason for concealing it.
1502
01:20:30,946 --> 01:20:31,786
You know who that is?
1503
01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:33,128
Yes, a judge.
1504
01:20:33,254 --> 01:20:36,125
- A judge of the high court?
- Oh yes, it must be.
1505
01:20:36,627 --> 01:20:38,427
That shows how much you
know about the courts.
1506
01:20:38,456 --> 01:20:40,256
Among the judges that's
the lowest of the low.
1507
01:20:40,291 --> 01:20:43,939
Oh yes. Yes, of course now I remember
I've been told about that before.
1508
01:20:43,984 --> 01:20:46,603
You've been told all about
that before, of course you have.
1509
01:20:46,729 --> 01:20:48,840
Yes sir, I have been told this.
1510
01:20:48,965 --> 01:20:51,611
Where is she now?
Come on, where's Leni?
1511
01:20:51,735 --> 01:20:53,710
Where's she hiding?
1512
01:20:53,836 --> 01:20:56,436
Leni, I don't think she's hiding, sir.
She must be in the kitchen.
1513
01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:58,064
Yes, that's where
she ought to be.
1514
01:20:58,188 --> 01:21:01,019
Yes, she must be in the kitchen
making soup for the advocate.
1515
01:21:01,144 --> 01:21:03,364
- Why didn't you tell me that before?
- I was going to take you there, sir...
1516
01:21:03,488 --> 01:21:05,013
- Don't think you're being clever...
- Oh no, I don't.
1517
01:21:05,139 --> 01:21:06,699
I don't think I'm clever at all.
1518
01:21:06,823 --> 01:21:08,159
Lead the way then.
1519
01:21:08,998 --> 01:21:09,843
Go on.
1520
01:21:14,868 --> 01:21:16,469
Good evening, Josef.
1521
01:21:16,594 --> 01:21:17,926
Leni...
1522
01:21:26,338 --> 01:21:27,514
Who's that man?
1523
01:21:27,639 --> 01:21:28,974
His name is Bloch.
1524
01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:34,137
You were in your night gown.
1525
01:21:35,881 --> 01:21:37,970
Is he your lover?
1526
01:21:38,852 --> 01:21:40,742
I want an answer.
1527
01:21:40,865 --> 01:21:43,578
Come to the study and
I'll tell you about it.
1528
01:21:45,545 --> 01:21:46,574
No.
1529
01:21:47,598 --> 01:21:49,480
No, I want you to
tell me in here.
1530
01:21:50,482 --> 01:21:52,438
You aren't jealous
of poor little Bloch?
1531
01:21:52,564 --> 01:21:54,497
You can see what he is. Nothing.
1532
01:21:54,623 --> 01:21:56,663
I just have to pay a little
attention to him because
1533
01:21:56,759 --> 01:21:59,396
he's one of the advocate's
best clients.
1534
01:22:06,019 --> 01:22:07,644
You're going to spend
the night with me?
1535
01:22:07,770 --> 01:22:09,232
The eggs are burning.
1536
01:22:13,498 --> 01:22:16,292
It's just as well. Eggs
are bad for you.
1537
01:22:16,417 --> 01:22:19,056
If you really want to see the advocate
I'll tell him you're here.
1538
01:22:19,181 --> 01:22:20,494
He's been asking after you.
1539
01:22:20,619 --> 01:22:21,752
Yeah, I'll bet he has.
1540
01:22:21,877 --> 01:22:24,784
Where have you
been all this time?
1541
01:22:24,910 --> 01:22:26,921
I've got some information
for you too.
1542
01:22:27,046 --> 01:22:29,021
Things I've found out...
1543
01:22:29,146 --> 01:22:31,312
but first lets get off that jacket.
1544
01:22:31,438 --> 01:22:33,592
Shall I announce you
or give him his soup first?
1545
01:22:33,715 --> 01:22:34,691
Give him his soup.
1546
01:22:34,814 --> 01:22:36,352
He'll need it by the time
I'm through with him.
1547
01:22:36,477 --> 01:22:39,266
So you are one of the
advocate's clients?
1548
01:22:39,391 --> 01:22:40,577
What's it got to do with you?
1549
01:22:40,703 --> 01:22:42,914
You be quiet, Rudy.
1550
01:22:43,039 --> 01:22:44,746
I'll give him his soup now
but there's a chance
1551
01:22:44,870 --> 01:22:46,270
he'll fall asleep right afterwards.
1552
01:22:46,323 --> 01:22:48,194
What I have to say to him
will keep him awake.
1553
01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:50,530
Just as soon as he's finished
eating I'll announce you.
1554
01:22:50,655 --> 01:22:52,496
I want to get you back with me.
1555
01:22:52,621 --> 01:22:53,612
Keep a seat.
1556
01:22:56,460 --> 01:22:57,296
So.
1557
01:23:01,417 --> 01:23:02,722
You're a...
1558
01:23:03,954 --> 01:23:05,394
You're one of the
advocate's clients.
1559
01:23:05,425 --> 01:23:07,354
Oh yes...
1560
01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:10,633
Yes, a very old client indeed.
1561
01:23:10,758 --> 01:23:12,031
How long has he had
charge of your affairs?
1562
01:23:12,157 --> 01:23:13,057
Affairs?
1563
01:23:13,183 --> 01:23:15,453
Business affairs, oh.
1564
01:23:15,578 --> 01:23:18,162
He's been my representative since...
1565
01:23:18,287 --> 01:23:22,013
the very beginning.
1566
01:23:22,138 --> 01:23:23,359
But my case...
1567
01:23:23,485 --> 01:23:26,094
That's what probably you
are thinking about.
1568
01:23:26,219 --> 01:23:28,703
I have it all written down here.
1569
01:23:28,829 --> 01:23:30,565
I can give you the exact dates.
1570
01:23:30,689 --> 01:23:34,117
Now, it's very difficult to keep
all that in one's head so...
1571
01:23:34,242 --> 01:23:35,786
Oh no, I didn't...
I never realized
1572
01:23:35,910 --> 01:23:38,388
that Hastler had an ordinary
commercial practise as well.
1573
01:23:38,514 --> 01:23:40,738
Of course...
1574
01:23:40,861 --> 01:23:43,770
Why... yes you know
that they even say...
1575
01:23:45,361 --> 01:23:47,439
They even say that he's a
better advocate for...
1576
01:23:47,564 --> 01:23:49,130
business, right, than for...
1577
01:23:49,256 --> 01:23:50,217
the other kind.
1578
01:23:50,343 --> 01:23:51,921
- Yes?
- Oh yeah.
1579
01:23:52,705 --> 01:23:54,516
You won't give me away?
1580
01:23:55,527 --> 01:23:56,853
I'm not an informer.
1581
01:23:58,532 --> 01:24:01,865
He's a revengeful man,
very, very revengeful.
1582
01:24:03,259 --> 01:24:04,802
Well surely he wouldn't...
1583
01:24:04,928 --> 01:24:07,168
He wouldn't think of harming
one of his own clients?
1584
01:24:07,293 --> 01:24:08,479
Yes, Yes!
1585
01:24:08,604 --> 01:24:09,950
Yes, once he's aroused
1586
01:24:10,076 --> 01:24:12,255
he could do anything.
1587
01:24:12,723 --> 01:24:15,855
He doesn't draw
any distinctions.
1588
01:24:15,980 --> 01:24:17,522
What was it you
wanted to tell me?
1589
01:24:18,622 --> 01:24:21,977
You'll have to tell me
one of your own secrets.
1590
01:24:22,102 --> 01:24:23,759
Please.
1591
01:24:23,884 --> 01:24:25,187
So we can trust each other.
1592
01:24:25,313 --> 01:24:28,927
- Do keep quiet.
- Okay, I'll give you something.
1593
01:24:37,036 --> 01:24:40,148
I have other advocates.
1594
01:24:40,273 --> 01:24:43,141
Other... other advocates
as well as Hastler?
1595
01:24:43,267 --> 01:24:44,296
Five of them.
1596
01:24:47,661 --> 01:24:48,634
You know...
1597
01:24:51,781 --> 01:24:52,794
Hastler...
1598
01:24:56,711 --> 01:24:59,072
- Listen...
- Yeah.
1599
01:24:59,197 --> 01:25:00,577
Hastler...
1600
01:25:02,294 --> 01:25:04,292
You notice he's always...
1601
01:25:07,963 --> 01:25:13,312
Hastler is always referring to the others
in his own circle as "great advocates".
1602
01:25:20,047 --> 01:25:23,834
But in the real
protocol of the court...
1603
01:25:23,959 --> 01:25:25,656
he ranks where?
1604
01:25:25,780 --> 01:25:29,076
- Where?
- Among the smaller advocates.
1605
01:25:29,203 --> 01:25:32,380
- Oh sure.
- Hastler?
1606
01:25:32,505 --> 01:25:35,676
Well, the really great advocates...
1607
01:25:35,802 --> 01:25:37,225
- whom I've never seen...
- then you must've been...
1608
01:25:37,351 --> 01:25:38,871
- working on your own behalf
- Oh, yes.
1609
01:25:38,930 --> 01:25:40,991
You know, I'd like to
ask you about that.
1610
01:25:41,116 --> 01:25:43,819
- How do you do that?
- It's exhausting.
1611
01:25:43,945 --> 01:25:47,638
It's just that they need a court to
try to keep an eye on things and...
1612
01:25:47,763 --> 01:25:49,492
too much for one man.
1613
01:25:53,217 --> 01:25:56,554
I'll be there often enough
myself after this, I suppose.
1614
01:25:56,678 --> 01:25:59,158
I can't expect the same special
treatment I got the first time.
1615
01:25:59,190 --> 01:26:02,227
Everybody stood up. They
must've taken me for a judge.
1616
01:26:02,351 --> 01:26:04,554
It was that guard you were with.
1617
01:26:05,486 --> 01:26:07,868
He's the one we
all stood up for.
1618
01:26:07,993 --> 01:26:10,227
There's that ridiculous superstition.
1619
01:26:10,353 --> 01:26:11,364
What superstition?
1620
01:26:11,488 --> 01:26:15,499
You're supposed to be able to
tell from a man's face and from...
1621
01:26:15,623 --> 01:26:17,969
the line of his lips especially.
1622
01:26:18,095 --> 01:26:21,168
How his case
is going to turn out.
1623
01:26:21,294 --> 01:26:22,829
- So?
- Well, so...
1624
01:26:22,955 --> 01:26:26,088
the people were saying that from
the expression on your lips...
1625
01:26:26,212 --> 01:26:28,460
They could tell that...
1626
01:26:28,587 --> 01:26:29,686
you were found guilty.
1627
01:26:29,809 --> 01:26:31,611
Yes, in the very near future.
1628
01:26:31,737 --> 01:26:34,084
- The advocate is waiting for you.
- Let him wait.
1629
01:26:34,210 --> 01:26:36,339
You can talk to Bloch later,
he's sleeping.
1630
01:26:36,464 --> 01:26:37,709
Sleeping here?
1631
01:26:37,834 --> 01:26:40,919
Everybody isn't like you.
1632
01:26:41,043 --> 01:26:45,115
Expecting to be granted an interview
at any hour of the day or night.
1633
01:26:46,109 --> 01:26:48,254
And the advocate is
sick as he is too
1634
01:26:54,371 --> 01:26:57,907
Your friends do you favours and
you just take them for granted.
1635
01:26:59,770 --> 01:27:02,541
Not that I ask for any thanks.
1636
01:27:02,666 --> 01:27:05,055
All I want...
1637
01:27:05,181 --> 01:27:06,634
well...
1638
01:27:06,759 --> 01:27:08,612
I want you to be fond of me.
1639
01:27:08,739 --> 01:27:10,322
I'm fond of you.
1640
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:12,760
Well I don't know...
1641
01:27:12,854 --> 01:27:14,972
Why shouldn't Hastler
be willing to see me?
1642
01:27:15,096 --> 01:27:18,478
He's my lawyer isn't he?
What kind of a favour is that?
1643
01:27:18,603 --> 01:27:20,162
- That's not the question.
- He seems to be in a...
1644
01:27:20,287 --> 01:27:21,615
state for being difficult.
1645
01:27:24,346 --> 01:27:27,499
You know why the advocate
has agreed to see him, Leni?
1646
01:27:27,625 --> 01:27:28,768
It's because...
1647
01:27:29,723 --> 01:27:32,929
His case is still at
the hopeful stage.
1648
01:27:33,054 --> 01:27:34,331
Oh yes, Leni.
1649
01:27:34,715 --> 01:27:38,502
- He'll see the difference later.
- You talk too much.
1650
01:27:38,628 --> 01:27:40,498
That's his trouble.
1651
01:27:41,003 --> 01:27:43,434
That's why the advocate can't
bear to see him.
1652
01:27:44,907 --> 01:27:48,241
Oh, he does see me occasionally.
1653
01:27:48,366 --> 01:27:52,011
But you never know that's
what's so nerve-racking
1654
01:27:53,571 --> 01:27:57,314
And you never know when he'll be
willing to receive you.
1655
01:27:57,440 --> 01:27:59,123
It could be any time.
1656
01:27:59,249 --> 01:28:02,968
Day, night... and if I'm not
right here on the spot
1657
01:28:03,093 --> 01:28:06,572
When he does take it into
his head to send for me...
1658
01:28:06,697 --> 01:28:10,322
I've lost my chance.
1659
01:28:10,446 --> 01:28:13,274
Then I have to wait much
longer than before.
1660
01:28:13,398 --> 01:28:16,428
That's why I let you sleep here.
1661
01:28:16,553 --> 01:28:17,766
Well I guess...
1662
01:28:17,892 --> 01:28:21,502
one gets very dependent on one's
advocate as time goes on.
1663
01:28:21,627 --> 01:28:23,633
The truth is, he likes it.
1664
01:28:24,236 --> 01:28:26,458
- Leni...
- Maybe not the waiting.
1665
01:28:26,584 --> 01:28:29,920
But you do enjoy spending
the night, now don't you?
1666
01:28:31,315 --> 01:28:33,096
Good.
1667
01:28:35,374 --> 01:28:37,959
Want to see his home?
1668
01:28:43,702 --> 01:28:45,063
Okay.
1669
01:28:54,786 --> 01:28:56,798
So you sleep in the maid's room?
1670
01:28:57,384 --> 01:29:01,617
Yeah, she lets me have it,
yes, it's very convenient.
1671
01:29:19,375 --> 01:29:20,974
I'm going to bed.
1672
01:29:21,099 --> 01:29:23,077
Mr. K, wait.
1673
01:29:23,204 --> 01:29:24,376
Wait Mr. K!
1674
01:29:24,501 --> 01:29:25,450
Rudy.
1675
01:29:25,575 --> 01:29:26,656
Mr. K.
1676
01:29:26,782 --> 01:29:27,686
Mr. K.
1677
01:29:27,912 --> 01:29:28,777
Please...
1678
01:29:28,901 --> 01:29:30,667
You forgot your promise...
1679
01:29:30,793 --> 01:29:33,579
you were going to tell me
one of your secrets.
1680
01:29:34,878 --> 01:29:37,485
Alright, I'll give you a secret.
1681
01:29:37,609 --> 01:29:39,311
I'm dismissing the advocate.
1682
01:29:39,437 --> 01:29:40,582
- The advocate?
- What?
1683
01:29:40,708 --> 01:29:43,577
I'm going to dismiss
him from my case.
1684
01:29:43,702 --> 01:29:45,657
- Dismiss him!
- I'm tired of all these delays...
1685
01:29:45,782 --> 01:29:46,857
- Please, no you can't
- Hastler has done nothing...
1686
01:29:46,983 --> 01:29:49,293
he's either too old, too sick
or too indifferent.
1687
01:29:49,418 --> 01:29:51,818
- No, he's not indifferent...
- He's dismissing the advocate!
1688
01:29:52,675 --> 01:29:55,429
- He's dismissing the advocate!
- Wait!
1689
01:29:56,476 --> 01:29:59,387
No, Josef...
1690
01:29:59,510 --> 01:30:01,702
You stay out.
1691
01:30:05,917 --> 01:30:09,373
Leave him alone, Leni.
1692
01:30:09,498 --> 01:30:11,762
Has she been
pestering you again?
1693
01:30:11,888 --> 01:30:12,822
Pestering me?
1694
01:30:12,949 --> 01:30:16,885
She finds all accused
men attractive.
1695
01:30:17,010 --> 01:30:20,591
It's a peculiarity of hers.
1696
01:30:22,019 --> 01:30:23,693
She makes up to all of them...
1697
01:30:23,819 --> 01:30:25,579
makes love to all of them.
1698
01:30:26,146 --> 01:30:28,960
And when I allow her to...
1699
01:30:29,085 --> 01:30:32,297
she tells me about these
affairs to amuse me.
1700
01:30:34,373 --> 01:30:36,263
All about them...
1701
01:30:37,033 --> 01:30:39,721
You came here this evening
for a specific reason?
1702
01:30:39,847 --> 01:30:42,619
Yes, I came here to tell you that
I'm dispensing with your services.
1703
01:30:42,744 --> 01:30:44,519
Well, you mustn't be in
too much of a hurry.
1704
01:30:44,645 --> 01:30:46,958
I know you've done everything you
can for me and I appreciate it
1705
01:30:47,084 --> 01:30:49,847
but I'm afraid that more energetic steps
are gonna have to be taken.
1706
01:30:50,803 --> 01:30:54,671
- That's a plan we can discuss.
- It's not a plan, it's a fact.
1707
01:30:55,450 --> 01:30:57,518
How many times have I come here
and what have you done for me? Nothing.
1708
01:30:57,643 --> 01:31:01,688
How many of my clients have reached
the same point in their cases as you,
1709
01:31:01,813 --> 01:31:03,942
and stood here before me saying...
1710
01:31:04,068 --> 01:31:05,834
exactly the same things.
1711
01:31:05,959 --> 01:31:07,664
Maybe they had a reason to.
They were probably all...
1712
01:31:07,791 --> 01:31:09,942
just as much in the right as I am.
1713
01:31:10,809 --> 01:31:12,630
That's true you know...
1714
01:31:15,659 --> 01:31:18,460
Accused men...
1715
01:31:18,585 --> 01:31:20,320
are attractive.
1716
01:31:20,446 --> 01:31:23,848
Not that being accused makes
any immediate change
1717
01:31:23,973 --> 01:31:26,756
in a man's personal appearance.
1718
01:31:28,931 --> 01:31:30,811
But if you've got the right eye
for these things
1719
01:31:30,815 --> 01:31:34,391
you can pick out an accused man
in the largest crowd.
1720
01:31:35,551 --> 01:31:36,911
It's just...
1721
01:31:37,036 --> 01:31:40,518
something about them,
something...
1722
01:31:40,644 --> 01:31:42,262
attractive.
1723
01:31:42,387 --> 01:31:45,044
It can't be a sense of guilt...
1724
01:31:45,854 --> 01:31:48,023
You can't all be...
1725
01:31:48,148 --> 01:31:49,283
guilty.
1726
01:31:53,101 --> 01:31:55,029
Some, of course, are more
attractive than others
1727
01:31:55,154 --> 01:31:59,014
but all are attractive, even that
wretched creature Bloch.
1728
01:31:59,825 --> 01:32:01,416
Let's get him in here.
1729
01:32:01,542 --> 01:32:04,883
I think it's time you learned how
other accused men are treated.
1730
01:32:05,008 --> 01:32:07,063
Get Bloch in here, Leni.
1731
01:32:08,671 --> 01:32:10,891
Go and fetch Bloch...
1732
01:32:16,378 --> 01:32:20,500
- My decision is final, you know?
- You'd better think about it, Josef.
1733
01:32:25,640 --> 01:32:27,652
The advocate wants to see you.
1734
01:32:30,420 --> 01:32:32,974
- Go on.
- Thank you, thank you.
1735
01:32:35,112 --> 01:32:37,204
- Is that Bloch?
- Yes sir.
1736
01:32:37,330 --> 01:32:38,812
What do you want?
1737
01:32:44,028 --> 01:32:46,513
- You were sent for weren't you?
- Yes sir, I was.
1738
01:32:50,617 --> 01:32:52,169
You've come at the wrong time.
1739
01:32:52,294 --> 01:32:54,097
Sir, I came in immediately,
immediately sir...
1740
01:32:54,223 --> 01:32:55,946
the minute I heard my name.
1741
01:32:59,992 --> 01:33:02,112
- Do you want me to go away?
- You're here aren't you?!
1742
01:33:02,137 --> 01:33:04,112
Yes sir, I'm here I...
1743
01:33:05,493 --> 01:33:08,274
- Then stay.
- Yes sir.
1744
01:33:09,917 --> 01:33:14,602
Yesterday, I saw my friend
the third judge.
1745
01:33:14,728 --> 01:33:16,926
I managed to work the conversation
around to your case.
1746
01:33:17,051 --> 01:33:17,866
My case.
1747
01:33:17,991 --> 01:33:20,333
- You want to hear what he said?
- Oh, please.
1748
01:33:20,458 --> 01:33:22,776
In these matters there
are so many...
1749
01:33:22,901 --> 01:33:26,859
conflicting opinions that the
confusion is impenetrable.
1750
01:33:26,985 --> 01:33:28,439
At a certain point...
1751
01:33:28,564 --> 01:33:32,236
by an old tradition,
a bell must be rung.
1752
01:33:32,362 --> 01:33:34,569
- Yes, a bell.
- Shush.
1753
01:33:34,693 --> 01:33:38,825
But this marks the official
opening of the proceedings.
1754
01:33:38,950 --> 01:33:43,227
There are many arguments against this
opinion, but you wouldn't understand them.
1755
01:33:43,351 --> 01:33:45,228
- The other advocate...
- No!
1756
01:33:45,352 --> 01:33:47,674
- Who is your advocate?
- No, no
1757
01:33:47,799 --> 01:33:50,854
- And beside me...
- No sir, no one was...
1758
01:33:50,980 --> 01:33:52,940
Then pay no attention
to anyone else.
1759
01:33:53,066 --> 01:33:54,396
Fawn on the floor
for him, if you like.
1760
01:33:54,520 --> 01:33:57,208
No, you're not to
talk to me like that.
1761
01:33:57,334 --> 01:34:01,310
Not in front of the advocate.
How dare you! How dare you!
1762
01:34:01,373 --> 01:34:02,746
How dare you!
1763
01:34:04,689 --> 01:34:06,842
Don't you see what he's trying to do,
he's trying to humiliate you...
1764
01:34:06,967 --> 01:34:07,966
to show off his power.
1765
01:34:08,091 --> 01:34:10,285
- Pay no attention to anyone else.
- Let him go!
1766
01:34:10,411 --> 01:34:12,663
Do what your conscience
tells you is right.
1767
01:34:12,786 --> 01:34:15,376
- Let me go!
- I'm on my knees, advocate.
1768
01:34:15,502 --> 01:34:16,706
I'm on my knees, advocate.
1769
01:34:16,831 --> 01:34:18,735
I'm on my knees, sir.
1770
01:34:18,860 --> 01:34:20,483
I'm on...
1771
01:34:48,219 --> 01:34:50,662
How's he been behaving today?
1772
01:34:50,787 --> 01:34:53,612
He has been quiet
and hardworking.
1773
01:34:54,494 --> 01:34:56,599
What's he been doing all day?
1774
01:34:57,641 --> 01:35:02,304
I kept him locked up in the maid's room,
so he wouldn't disturb me when I worked.
1775
01:35:02,429 --> 01:35:05,017
It's where he usually stays, anyway.
1776
01:35:05,142 --> 01:35:08,925
Then you can't say of your own
knowledge what he's been doing.
1777
01:35:09,050 --> 01:35:12,005
I peeked in on him now and
then through the ventilator.
1778
01:35:12,130 --> 01:35:15,989
He was kneeling all the time
on the bed...
1779
01:35:16,113 --> 01:35:18,192
studying the book you
let him borrow.
1780
01:35:18,317 --> 01:35:20,806
There wasn't much light so the
way he stuck to his reading
1781
01:35:20,932 --> 01:35:23,536
shows that he does
what he's told.
1782
01:35:24,251 --> 01:35:26,911
Did he understand what
he was reading?
1783
01:35:27,036 --> 01:35:28,071
Well...
1784
01:35:28,195 --> 01:35:30,173
he's following the lines
with his fingers.
1785
01:35:30,297 --> 01:35:31,862
All I could tell was...
1786
01:35:31,987 --> 01:35:35,696
He never goes past the
same page the whole day.
1787
01:35:35,822 --> 01:35:37,906
I guess that book is very
hard to understand.
1788
01:35:38,031 --> 01:35:39,051
Yes.
1789
01:35:39,917 --> 01:35:43,544
The scriptures are very difficult.
1790
01:35:43,670 --> 01:35:46,344
They're only meant to give
him a bare inkling of the...
1791
01:35:46,470 --> 01:35:48,222
- Yes, yes...
- ...the complications I must
1792
01:35:48,346 --> 01:35:50,586
struggle with in his behalf.
1793
01:35:50,711 --> 01:35:54,226
- Did he read without stopping?
- Almost without stopping...
1794
01:35:54,351 --> 01:35:57,027
Once he asked me for a drink of
water and I handed it to him
1795
01:35:57,154 --> 01:35:59,071
through the ventilator.
1796
01:35:59,196 --> 01:36:02,963
Then about eight o' clock I let him out
and gave him something to eat.
1797
01:36:03,088 --> 01:36:05,200
You're praising him
too much, Leni.
1798
01:36:05,326 --> 01:36:08,219
You're making it even harder
for me to tell him the truth.
1799
01:36:08,345 --> 01:36:11,640
The judges' remarks were
by no means favourable.
1800
01:36:11,766 --> 01:36:13,880
Not favourable? How can that be?
1801
01:36:14,004 --> 01:36:16,980
He was even annoyed when
I mentioned Bloch's name.
1802
01:36:17,104 --> 01:36:19,965
"You're wasting your time
with that man", he told me.
1803
01:36:20,089 --> 01:36:21,592
"His case is...
1804
01:36:21,718 --> 01:36:22,649
"hopeless."
1805
01:36:22,774 --> 01:36:24,208
I refused to believe that.
1806
01:36:24,332 --> 01:36:27,798
"Bloch is most conscientious",
I told him.
1807
01:36:27,923 --> 01:36:31,978
It's true that personally
he's rather repulsive.
1808
01:36:32,104 --> 01:36:35,410
His manners are bad
and he's dirty
1809
01:36:35,535 --> 01:36:40,766
but as a client, I said,
"He's beyond reproach."
1810
01:36:40,890 --> 01:36:43,496
Which was of course a
deliberate exaggeration.
1811
01:36:43,621 --> 01:36:45,125
And here's what the judge
replied to that...
1812
01:36:45,249 --> 01:36:51,198
"Your, your client has
a kind of low cunning.
1813
01:36:51,323 --> 01:36:56,960
"He's learned through the years how
to go on manipulating the situation.
1814
01:36:57,086 --> 01:37:00,682
"What do you think he'd say
if we were to tell him
1815
01:37:00,806 --> 01:37:02,742
"that the bell
1816
01:37:02,867 --> 01:37:07,038
"marking the start of
the proceedings...
1817
01:37:07,164 --> 01:37:09,287
"hadn't even been rung."
1818
01:37:09,808 --> 01:37:11,594
Quiet there, Bloch!
1819
01:37:11,719 --> 01:37:15,282
Have you no shame, to behave
like that in front of a client?
1820
01:37:15,406 --> 01:37:17,436
You're destroying his
confidence in me.
1821
01:37:17,559 --> 01:37:19,106
What's wrong with you?
1822
01:37:19,232 --> 01:37:21,485
You're still alive, aren't you?
1823
01:37:21,610 --> 01:37:23,133
You're still under my protection.
1824
01:37:23,258 --> 01:37:24,481
I hope you realize that I'm
1825
01:37:24,606 --> 01:37:25,972
- dispensing with your services.
- You can still change
1826
01:37:26,096 --> 01:37:28,310
your mind about that.
1827
01:37:28,436 --> 01:37:30,547
To be in chains
1828
01:37:30,673 --> 01:37:32,832
is sometimes safer
than to be free.
1829
01:37:48,686 --> 01:37:50,300
- Where do you think you're going?
- Open the door.
1830
01:37:50,425 --> 01:37:52,569
- You must be crazy.
- Open the door.
1831
01:37:52,692 --> 01:37:54,725
- There's no place for you to go.
- Listen to him, he's crazy.
1832
01:37:54,850 --> 01:37:56,541
If I hadn't made up my mind already,
that performance in there
1833
01:37:56,666 --> 01:37:57,866
would have settled it forever.
1834
01:37:57,924 --> 01:37:59,568
I think it was all put
on for my benefit
1835
01:37:59,694 --> 01:38:00,739
to win me over.
1836
01:38:00,863 --> 01:38:03,993
How far do you think you
could get without him?
1837
01:38:04,117 --> 01:38:06,812
How far am I now?
1838
01:38:06,936 --> 01:38:08,517
Not far away.
1839
01:38:08,643 --> 01:38:12,353
You'd better see him.
1840
01:38:12,478 --> 01:38:15,097
- Who, the high court judge?
- Don't be funny, of course not.
1841
01:38:15,223 --> 01:38:16,857
I mean Titorelli.
1842
01:38:16,981 --> 01:38:19,399
He's the official court painter,
he knows them all.
1843
01:38:19,525 --> 01:38:21,838
They all come to his studio
to sit for their portraits.
1844
01:38:21,964 --> 01:38:24,923
Nobody has more influence
with the judges than Titorelli.
1845
01:38:25,047 --> 01:38:26,699
You really think he
could help me?
1846
01:38:26,825 --> 01:38:28,175
That's his profession, really
1847
01:38:28,299 --> 01:38:31,395
- as much as painting, helping people.
- Unlock the door will you.
1848
01:38:31,519 --> 01:38:33,199
- Wait till tomorrow.
- Where are the keys?
1849
01:38:33,282 --> 01:38:35,639
The advocate keeps the keys.
1850
01:38:35,764 --> 01:38:36,712
Okay.
1851
01:38:38,921 --> 01:38:40,141
Goodbye Leni and thanks.
1852
01:38:40,265 --> 01:38:41,867
- You'll be back here.
- No. No.
1853
01:38:41,992 --> 01:38:43,224
You won't have any choice.
1854
01:38:43,349 --> 01:38:45,632
No Leni, I've seen what it is
to be one of his clients.
1855
01:38:45,757 --> 01:38:47,107
I've seen what happened to Bloch.
1856
01:38:47,233 --> 01:38:48,445
He's not a client.
1857
01:38:48,570 --> 01:38:50,335
He's the advocate's dog.
1858
01:39:04,736 --> 01:39:06,652
- Excuse me, is there a Mr. Titorelli?
- Who?
1859
01:39:06,776 --> 01:39:09,056
Artist living here.
1860
01:39:09,181 --> 01:39:10,519
Do you know the
painter Titorelli?
1861
01:39:10,645 --> 01:39:11,692
What do you want him for?
1862
01:39:11,816 --> 01:39:13,275
I want him to paint my portrait.
1863
01:39:13,400 --> 01:39:14,629
Your portrait?
1864
01:39:55,269 --> 01:39:56,913
Just get in, I'll get
rid of these girls.
1865
01:39:57,037 --> 01:39:58,768
Lousy pests! Out!
1866
01:39:58,892 --> 01:40:00,415
Out, I see you.
1867
01:40:00,540 --> 01:40:04,086
Don't try your silly games.
He just wants to talk business.
1868
01:40:04,210 --> 01:40:05,937
Out! You heard me kids.
1869
01:40:06,062 --> 01:40:07,490
Out!
1870
01:40:07,616 --> 01:40:09,934
Why don't stay in
somebody else's studio?
1871
01:40:10,058 --> 01:40:12,837
Oh Oh, I can see you.
1872
01:40:18,200 --> 01:40:21,008
I can see you. Don't think
you're fooling Titorelli.
1873
01:40:29,922 --> 01:40:32,519
Why aren't you out of my studio?
1874
01:40:33,885 --> 01:40:35,860
You both best apologize.
1875
01:40:35,985 --> 01:40:37,550
You are silly little rascals.
1876
01:40:37,676 --> 01:40:38,764
Out.
1877
01:40:38,890 --> 01:40:40,022
Out.
1878
01:40:40,146 --> 01:40:40,473
Out.
1879
01:40:40,597 --> 01:40:42,978
I got home late last night that's why
everything is in such a mess.
1880
01:40:43,103 --> 01:40:46,429
And just as I was tucking myself under
the covers a dreadful little claw
1881
01:40:46,554 --> 01:40:47,904
reaches up and seizes me.
1882
01:40:48,031 --> 01:40:50,234
She was there under the
bed of course, waiting.
1883
01:40:50,359 --> 01:40:53,228
- Titorelli, can we come in now?
- No, you can't!
1884
01:40:53,352 --> 01:40:54,947
- Not even me?
- No.
1885
01:40:55,073 --> 01:40:58,026
I know some little pussy cats
who aren't going to be so pretty
1886
01:40:58,151 --> 01:40:59,686
when Titorelli is through with them.
1887
01:40:59,810 --> 01:41:02,374
Oh, I know some dirty minded
little pussies that are gonna wish
1888
01:41:02,498 --> 01:41:04,142
their mom's had drowned
them in a bucket.
1889
01:41:04,268 --> 01:41:06,445
I'll get my ice pick.
1890
01:41:06,570 --> 01:41:08,671
Remember my ice pick...
1891
01:41:09,753 --> 01:41:11,504
And what can I do for you, chum?
1892
01:41:11,629 --> 01:41:14,679
I thought you might be able
to give me some advice.
1893
01:41:14,804 --> 01:41:16,764
You wouldn't want to be
buying one of my pictures?
1894
01:41:16,812 --> 01:41:20,994
Oh certainly. You're working
on a painting now?
1895
01:41:21,119 --> 01:41:23,978
A portrait, not quite finished.
1896
01:41:24,102 --> 01:41:25,440
It must be a judge.
1897
01:41:25,565 --> 01:41:27,779
Judges are my speciality.
1898
01:41:28,561 --> 01:41:30,279
What does that repre...
1899
01:41:30,403 --> 01:41:31,117
represent?
1900
01:41:31,242 --> 01:41:33,755
You can see for yourself,
justice.
1901
01:41:33,880 --> 01:41:35,800
Yes, there's the...
1902
01:41:35,925 --> 01:41:38,659
There's the bandage over
the eyes but aren't those
1903
01:41:38,785 --> 01:41:39,869
Ouch.
1904
01:41:39,994 --> 01:41:41,650
Aren't those wings
there on heels?
1905
01:41:41,776 --> 01:41:44,265
My instructions were to
paint it that way.
1906
01:41:44,391 --> 01:41:45,582
Why?
1907
01:41:45,705 --> 01:41:48,250
Justice ought to stand still, don't you
think, or else the scales will waver
1908
01:41:48,376 --> 01:41:49,621
and a just verdict
won't be possible.
1909
01:41:49,745 --> 01:41:53,464
Actually it's justice and the
goddess of victory combined.
1910
01:41:53,588 --> 01:41:55,183
What does she look like to you?
1911
01:41:55,309 --> 01:41:57,973
Like the goddess of the hunt.
1912
01:41:58,100 --> 01:41:59,163
In full cry.
1913
01:42:00,059 --> 01:42:02,797
Titorelli, came we come in now?
1914
01:42:02,920 --> 01:42:04,240
Nasty things, we're busy.
1915
01:42:04,364 --> 01:42:06,231
You aren't really busy.
1916
01:42:06,356 --> 01:42:08,359
You're going to paint him?
Please don't paint him,
1917
01:42:08,484 --> 01:42:10,934
not another one like that.
1918
01:42:11,558 --> 01:42:14,328
These girls belong to the court.
1919
01:42:14,452 --> 01:42:15,494
Well actually,
1920
01:42:15,619 --> 01:42:18,483
practically everything
belongs to the court.
1921
01:42:19,009 --> 01:42:21,851
But it's behind the scenes,
here in this very studio
1922
01:42:21,976 --> 01:42:23,493
that's where you
get your results.
1923
01:42:24,894 --> 01:42:27,073
I forgot to ask you what kind
of acquittal you want.
1924
01:42:27,198 --> 01:42:30,479
Ostensible, or definite acquittal
or deferment?
1925
01:42:30,605 --> 01:42:34,155
Definite acquittal is the best but I
can't influence that kind of verdict.
1926
01:42:34,280 --> 01:42:35,792
- Nobody can.
- Why?
1927
01:42:35,916 --> 01:42:39,559
I've never in my life heard
of a case of definite acquittal.
1928
01:42:39,684 --> 01:42:40,410
What's wrong sir?
1929
01:42:40,535 --> 01:42:41,991
There are windows,
something we can open?
1930
01:42:42,117 --> 01:42:44,708
Oh, well there's plenty of air
comes in through those chinks.
1931
01:42:44,833 --> 01:42:48,144
And if you want some ventilation you can
open that door just there behind you.
1932
01:42:48,270 --> 01:42:51,150
The judge I'm painting now, for instance,
he always comes in by that door.
1933
01:42:51,162 --> 01:42:53,482
I've had to give him a key for it
in case I have to be out.
1934
01:42:53,572 --> 01:42:57,518
His armour usually arrives very early
when I'm still asleep.
1935
01:42:57,643 --> 01:43:00,523
It's not exactly a soothing experience
you know to wake up in the morning
1936
01:43:00,648 --> 01:43:05,172
and find a judge all dressed up
in those crazy ceremonial robes,
1937
01:43:05,297 --> 01:43:06,484
climbing over your bed.
1938
01:43:06,611 --> 01:43:07,691
He's taking off his jacket.
1939
01:43:07,759 --> 01:43:10,109
They seem to think I'm going
to paint your portrait
1940
01:43:10,234 --> 01:43:11,751
and that's why you've
taken off your jacket.
1941
01:43:11,875 --> 01:43:15,128
What are the other alternatives?
1942
01:43:15,253 --> 01:43:17,072
You mean your
legal alternatives.
1943
01:43:17,199 --> 01:43:22,311
I told you ostensible acquittal,
or indefinite deferment.
1944
01:43:22,436 --> 01:43:24,938
What's wrong, joy, not feeling well?
1945
01:43:26,557 --> 01:43:28,146
No...
1946
01:43:28,271 --> 01:43:29,661
must...
1947
01:43:29,786 --> 01:43:31,347
must be the heat.
1948
01:43:32,520 --> 01:43:35,134
If I open that door we have
those girls in here all over.
1949
01:43:35,259 --> 01:43:36,307
Then don't do that.
1950
01:43:36,433 --> 01:43:38,809
Well now with
ostensible acquittal
1951
01:43:38,934 --> 01:43:41,097
I write out an affidavit
of your innocence.
1952
01:43:41,223 --> 01:43:44,161
And make the rounds off all
the judges I know personally,
1953
01:43:44,285 --> 01:43:46,669
beginning with the one
I'm painting now.
1954
01:43:46,793 --> 01:43:51,470
I explain to him that you're innocent
and myself guarantee that in...
1955
01:43:51,596 --> 01:43:53,168
And if he believes you?
1956
01:43:53,294 --> 01:43:55,335
As he very well might.
1957
01:43:55,461 --> 01:43:58,905
No, we mustn't be
too pessimistic.
1958
01:43:59,029 --> 01:44:01,232
Some of them are
bound to believe me.
1959
01:44:01,359 --> 01:44:03,192
Yes, and I'll be free?
1960
01:44:03,316 --> 01:44:04,406
Ostensibly...
1961
01:44:04,532 --> 01:44:06,748
ostensibly free.
1962
01:44:06,873 --> 01:44:10,114
Naturally the judges I know
all belong to the lowest rate.
1963
01:44:10,239 --> 01:44:13,542
They haven't the power preserved
to the highest court of all
1964
01:44:13,665 --> 01:44:14,981
to grant a final acquittal.
1965
01:44:15,106 --> 01:44:16,882
- The highest court?
- Chum, that court
1966
01:44:17,007 --> 01:44:18,358
is inaccessible to you,
1967
01:44:18,484 --> 01:44:19,500
to me, to all of us.
1968
01:44:19,626 --> 01:44:21,816
What the prospects
are of the will
1969
01:44:21,942 --> 01:44:23,686
we just don't know.
1970
01:44:23,810 --> 01:44:26,992
And we don't want to know.
I'm sure you understand.
1971
01:44:27,117 --> 01:44:28,672
No, I'm not sure that I do.
1972
01:44:28,743 --> 01:44:33,088
Oh, what they can do for you is to
relieve you of the burden of the charge.
1973
01:44:33,213 --> 01:44:35,298
Lift it from your
shoulders for a time
1974
01:44:35,425 --> 01:44:37,596
but it does hover around
up there above you.
1975
01:44:37,721 --> 01:44:41,560
You see, indefinite acquittal
all the documents are annulled.
1976
01:44:41,685 --> 01:44:45,359
But with ostensible acquittal your
whole dossier continues to circulate.
1977
01:44:45,484 --> 01:44:47,622
Up to the higher courts,
down to the lower ones,
1978
01:44:47,747 --> 01:44:48,559
up again, down.
1979
01:44:48,685 --> 01:44:52,809
These oscillations and peregrinations
are just configurable.
1980
01:44:52,933 --> 01:44:54,999
No use in trying
either, I suppose.
1981
01:44:55,124 --> 01:44:56,907
Not a hope.
1982
01:44:57,496 --> 01:45:00,335
I've known cases of an acquitted
man coming home from the court
1983
01:45:00,460 --> 01:45:03,084
and finding the cops waiting there
to arrest him all over again.
1984
01:45:03,696 --> 01:45:06,463
But then of course, theoretically,
it's always possible
1985
01:45:06,587 --> 01:45:08,138
to get another ostensible acquittal.
1986
01:45:08,262 --> 01:45:10,062
The second acquittal
wouldn't be final either.
1987
01:45:10,125 --> 01:45:12,842
It's automatically followed
by the third arrest.
1988
01:45:12,969 --> 01:45:15,070
The third acquittal,
by the fourth arrest.
1989
01:45:15,196 --> 01:45:16,870
The fourth...
1990
01:45:17,825 --> 01:45:19,554
You think a deferment
would suit you any better, do you?
1991
01:45:19,679 --> 01:45:21,190
Well I...
1992
01:45:21,314 --> 01:45:22,562
couldn't really say.
1993
01:45:22,694 --> 01:45:24,407
Even then you can't
annul the case forever.
1994
01:45:26,099 --> 01:45:28,100
Measures have to be taken...
1995
01:45:28,227 --> 01:45:29,941
questions, interrogations,
1996
01:45:30,066 --> 01:45:33,190
observations, more interrogations,
evidence collected.
1997
01:45:33,317 --> 01:45:34,290
Going already?
1998
01:45:34,415 --> 01:45:35,128
I'll be...
1999
01:45:35,254 --> 01:45:37,000
I'll be back to see
you again, very soon.
2000
01:45:37,124 --> 01:45:39,756
I can't keep you to your
word, you know, Joey.
2001
01:45:39,883 --> 01:45:41,746
Otherwise I'll have to
call in at your office
2002
01:45:41,872 --> 01:45:43,048
and I know you wouldn't like that.
2003
01:45:43,174 --> 01:45:44,671
Unlock this door, will you?
2004
01:45:44,796 --> 01:45:47,549
You don't want to be
bothered by the girls.
2005
01:45:47,675 --> 01:45:49,987
We'd better slip you
out this other way.
2006
01:45:50,428 --> 01:45:51,740
- Now wait.
- What for?
2007
01:45:51,865 --> 01:45:53,849
Would you like to see
some of my pictures?
2008
01:45:53,975 --> 01:45:57,472
I'm sure there's at least one or
two of them you'd want to buy.
2009
01:45:57,598 --> 01:45:59,994
Now here, this one.
2010
01:46:00,118 --> 01:46:02,752
It's modern, you noticed,
it's an action painting.
2011
01:46:02,877 --> 01:46:04,963
I call it "Wild Nature".
2012
01:46:05,088 --> 01:46:06,557
I'll buy it.
2013
01:46:06,682 --> 01:46:09,314
- Here's the companion picture.
- I'll take them both.
2014
01:46:09,438 --> 01:46:10,660
You seem to like the subject.
2015
01:46:10,786 --> 01:46:12,533
Yes, I do.
2016
01:46:12,658 --> 01:46:13,858
I'll hang them in my office.
2017
01:46:13,983 --> 01:46:17,409
By a lucky chance I've got another
on the very same thing.
2018
01:46:17,534 --> 01:46:18,706
How much for the three?
2019
01:46:18,830 --> 01:46:20,507
Oh, we'll settle that
for next time.
2020
01:46:20,632 --> 01:46:24,207
Today you're in such a hurry, but
we're gonna keep in real close touch
2021
01:46:24,332 --> 01:46:27,521
with each other from now on,
aren't we, Joey boy?
2022
01:46:31,791 --> 01:46:34,114
This is the law court office?
2023
01:46:34,240 --> 01:46:35,904
That seems to surprise you.
2024
01:46:36,028 --> 01:46:38,917
I think what surprises me most is how
ignorant I am about everything
2025
01:46:39,041 --> 01:46:40,933
concerning this court of yours.
2026
01:46:41,057 --> 01:46:42,729
For an accused man
that's a mistake.
2027
01:46:42,854 --> 01:46:44,857
He should never let himself
be caught napping.
2028
01:46:44,981 --> 01:46:47,394
Never for a minute let
his eye stray to the left.
2029
01:46:47,518 --> 01:46:50,819
When for all he knows that judge,
or somebody like that
2030
01:46:50,945 --> 01:46:53,804
can be lurking a
little bit to the right.
2031
01:46:55,517 --> 01:46:56,815
You...
2032
01:46:58,636 --> 01:46:59,274
I...
2033
01:46:59,399 --> 01:47:02,158
I make you very
uncomfortable, don't I?
2034
01:47:02,283 --> 01:47:05,893
It distresses you to find
me in your company.
2035
01:47:06,018 --> 01:47:07,777
Yes, I've been told about that.
2036
01:47:07,902 --> 01:47:13,184
Before I thought you took me for a judge
or at least an official of the court.
2037
01:47:13,310 --> 01:47:17,172
I even thought you were afraid of me
but what you're feeling is pain!
2038
01:47:17,298 --> 01:47:19,703
You don't like what
you see, do you?
2039
01:47:19,829 --> 01:47:21,561
It's my mouth.
2040
01:47:21,686 --> 01:47:24,475
You think you can tell
from my mouth
2041
01:47:24,599 --> 01:47:26,161
that I'm condemned.
2042
01:47:26,286 --> 01:47:28,879
That I'm going to be found guilty.
2043
01:47:29,005 --> 01:47:30,311
Guilty.
2044
01:48:26,881 --> 01:48:28,749
Josef K!
2045
01:48:29,426 --> 01:48:31,485
Josef K!
2046
01:48:43,898 --> 01:48:45,730
- You are Josef K?
- Yes.
2047
01:48:45,855 --> 01:48:48,129
You're an accused man.
2048
01:48:48,256 --> 01:48:49,756
So I've been informed.
2049
01:48:49,881 --> 01:48:51,943
Your case is going badly.
2050
01:48:56,028 --> 01:48:58,038
My first petition hasn't
been offered yet.
2051
01:48:58,163 --> 01:49:00,721
For the prisons your guilt has
assumed to have been proved.
2052
01:49:00,847 --> 01:49:02,737
But I'm not guilty.
2053
01:49:03,939 --> 01:49:05,794
For that matter...
2054
01:49:05,920 --> 01:49:08,803
How can any man
be called guilty?
2055
01:49:08,928 --> 01:49:11,536
We're all simply men here,
one as much as the other.
2056
01:49:11,662 --> 01:49:14,344
The guilty always
talk like that.
2057
01:49:14,468 --> 01:49:17,973
What do you propose to do now?
2058
01:49:18,099 --> 01:49:19,732
Get more help.
2059
01:49:19,857 --> 01:49:20,884
Help?
2060
01:49:21,009 --> 01:49:23,420
There are several possibilities
I haven't explored yet.
2061
01:49:23,544 --> 01:49:26,907
You expect too much from outside help,
especially from women.
2062
01:49:27,033 --> 01:49:28,349
Women have influence.
2063
01:49:28,474 --> 01:49:29,850
Take that examining magistrate,
2064
01:49:29,975 --> 01:49:32,184
he has only to see a woman and
he'll climb over the bench and
2065
01:49:32,310 --> 01:49:34,815
knock down the defendant
just to get his hands on her.
2066
01:49:34,941 --> 01:49:37,724
Yeah, that's an aspect of the courts
you probably don't know about.
2067
01:49:37,849 --> 01:49:38,656
Where's the door?
2068
01:49:38,782 --> 01:49:40,924
I have to catch up on
my work at the office.
2069
01:49:41,410 --> 01:49:43,130
After all...
2070
01:49:43,255 --> 01:49:46,034
I'm assistant manager
of my department.
2071
01:49:47,095 --> 01:49:49,056
What are you doing in church?
2072
01:49:49,181 --> 01:49:51,336
Or am I still in church, or is this
one of the law court offices?
2073
01:49:51,462 --> 01:49:52,744
I left my sickbed.
2074
01:49:52,869 --> 01:49:54,339
Well or go back to your sickbed.
2075
01:49:54,464 --> 01:49:57,518
Josef, you don't seriously believe
you can defend yourself?
2076
01:49:57,644 --> 01:49:58,639
Big choice...
2077
01:49:58,764 --> 01:50:00,138
Defend myself or defy you.
2078
01:50:00,262 --> 01:50:02,127
- Defy the court?
- All of you.
2079
01:50:02,253 --> 01:50:02,996
What's this?
2080
01:50:03,120 --> 01:50:04,857
We use these visual aids.
2081
01:50:04,982 --> 01:50:06,199
Lectures and sermons...
2082
01:50:06,325 --> 01:50:10,197
Yes, how your particular
delusion is described,
2083
01:50:10,320 --> 01:50:12,810
in the writings which
preface the law.
2084
01:50:12,936 --> 01:50:15,608
Before the law there stands a guard.
2085
01:50:15,733 --> 01:50:20,582
A man comes from the country
seeking admittance to the law.
2086
01:50:20,706 --> 01:50:23,829
But the guard cannot admit him.
2087
01:50:23,953 --> 01:50:26,062
Can the man hope to
enter at a later time?
2088
01:50:26,189 --> 01:50:28,782
I've heard it before,
we've all heard it.
2089
01:50:28,906 --> 01:50:31,216
The man is dying of old age
still waiting there.
2090
01:50:31,341 --> 01:50:33,181
And just at the end the
guard tells him that the...
2091
01:50:33,302 --> 01:50:35,263
door was meant
for him, only for him.
2092
01:50:35,387 --> 01:50:38,064
The guard tells him
no one could enter this door.
2093
01:50:39,063 --> 01:50:41,959
"And now, I'm going to close it."
2094
01:50:43,263 --> 01:50:47,263
Some commentators have pointed out
that the man came to the door
2095
01:50:47,953 --> 01:50:49,414
of his own free will.
2096
01:50:49,540 --> 01:50:50,940
Are we supposed to
swallow all that?
2097
01:50:51,036 --> 01:50:54,496
- It's all true?
- We needn't accept everything as true,
2098
01:50:54,622 --> 01:50:56,629
only what's necessary.
2099
01:50:56,753 --> 01:50:59,133
God, what a miserable conclusion.
2100
01:50:59,259 --> 01:51:01,304
It turns lying into a
universal principle.
2101
01:51:01,428 --> 01:51:05,161
By attempting to defy the court,
by such an obviously mad gesture
2102
01:51:05,287 --> 01:51:06,774
you hope to plead insanity?
2103
01:51:06,899 --> 01:51:09,317
You've laid some foundation
for that claim by appearing
2104
01:51:09,443 --> 01:51:10,683
to believe yourself that you're
2105
01:51:10,806 --> 01:51:12,674
victim of some kind
of conspiracy.
2106
01:51:12,697 --> 01:51:14,925
That's a symptom of
lunacy isn't it?
2107
01:51:15,049 --> 01:51:16,741
Delusions of persecution.
2108
01:51:16,866 --> 01:51:17,781
Delusions?
2109
01:51:17,906 --> 01:51:18,524
Well...
2110
01:51:18,648 --> 01:51:21,008
I don't pretend to
be a martyr, no.
2111
01:51:21,645 --> 01:51:23,217
Not even...
2112
01:51:23,342 --> 01:51:25,882
a victim of society?
2113
01:51:26,485 --> 01:51:28,485
I am a member of society.
2114
01:51:29,874 --> 01:51:33,191
Do you think you can persuade
the court that you're not responsible,
2115
01:51:33,316 --> 01:51:34,413
by reason of lunacy?
2116
01:51:34,538 --> 01:51:37,641
I think that's what the
court wants me to believe.
2117
01:51:39,103 --> 01:51:41,479
Yes, that's the conspiracy.
2118
01:51:41,603 --> 01:51:44,291
To persuade us all that
the whole world is crazy.
2119
01:51:44,415 --> 01:51:45,672
Formlessm
2120
01:51:45,797 --> 01:51:47,216
meaningless, absurd.
2121
01:51:47,341 --> 01:51:48,733
That's the dirty game.
2122
01:51:48,860 --> 01:51:50,314
So, I've lost my case.
2123
01:51:50,440 --> 01:51:51,693
What of it?
2124
01:51:51,818 --> 01:51:52,576
You...
2125
01:51:52,702 --> 01:51:54,460
You're losing too.
2126
01:51:54,743 --> 01:51:56,467
It's all lost.
2127
01:51:56,592 --> 01:51:57,610
Lost...
2128
01:51:57,735 --> 01:51:59,113
So what?
2129
01:51:59,944 --> 01:52:04,310
Does that sentence the
entire universe to lunacy?
2130
01:52:09,355 --> 01:52:11,503
Can't you see anything at all?
2131
01:52:11,628 --> 01:52:13,264
Of course I'm responsible.
2132
01:52:13,389 --> 01:52:14,721
My son.
2133
01:52:17,561 --> 01:52:19,302
I am not your son.
2134
01:56:18,721 --> 01:56:21,655
You expect me to take the knife
and do the job myself?
2135
01:56:21,780 --> 01:56:23,642
No, you'll have to do it.
2136
01:56:26,439 --> 01:56:27,359
You.
2137
01:56:32,117 --> 01:56:33,197
You.
2138
01:56:40,125 --> 01:56:41,131
You.
2139
01:56:45,567 --> 01:56:47,017
You!
2140
01:56:47,141 --> 01:56:48,516
You!
2141
01:56:48,757 --> 01:56:50,202
You!
2142
01:56:50,328 --> 01:56:53,113
You dummy! You'll have to do it!
2143
01:56:53,231 --> 01:56:55,293
You'll have to kill me!
2144
01:56:55,418 --> 01:56:57,680
Come on, come on!
2145
01:57:54,125 --> 01:58:00,153
This film, The Trial, was based
on the novel by Franz Kafka.
2146
01:58:02,298 --> 01:58:05,215

and Michael Lonsdale.

I played the advocate and
wrote and directed this film.
2170
01:58:43,833 --> 01:58:46,194
My name is Orson Welles.
