1
00:00:38,830 --> 00:00:42,630
KATIA

2
00:02:49,206 --> 00:02:52,994
Your Majesty, gentlemen
the ministers have arrived.

3
00:02:53,166 --> 00:02:55,726
Well, let them wait a bit.

4
00:02:55,886 --> 00:02:57,683
Remember this rule, my son.

5
00:02:57,846 --> 00:03:01,521
There must be an emperor
never keep anyone waiting,

6
00:03:01,686 --> 00:03:03,483
except his ministers.

7
00:03:03,646 --> 00:03:05,602
A minister
that you receive right away

8
00:03:05,766 --> 00:03:08,599
gives himself too much importance.

9
00:03:08,766 --> 00:03:12,554
This is the first time you have attended
to a government council.

10
00:03:12,726 --> 00:03:14,796
Listen carefully to what will be said,

11
00:03:14,966 --> 00:03:19,517
and above all, try to guess
what will not be said. Eh ?

12
00:03:20,726 --> 00:03:21,920
Come on.

13
00:03:26,966 --> 00:03:29,844
- His Majesty the Tsar.

14
00:03:34,606 --> 00:03:36,642
Sit down, gentlemen.

15
00:03:42,606 --> 00:03:45,996
I would like to know first
if you have read

16
00:03:46,166 --> 00:03:47,997
from the open letter

17
00:03:48,166 --> 00:03:51,238
addressed to me
from Switzerland Alexandre Aertzen.

18
00:03:51,446 --> 00:03:55,200
The newspapers which reproduced it
were seized at the border.

19
00:03:55,366 --> 00:03:57,322
Not a single one entered Russia.

20
00:03:59,086 --> 00:04:01,759
Yes. This one.

21
00:04:04,446 --> 00:04:06,721
Fortunately
that I have my personal policy,

22
00:04:06,886 --> 00:04:09,480
because if I had to
count on yours,

23
00:04:09,646 --> 00:04:11,557
I wouldn't know anything.

24
00:04:12,526 --> 00:04:15,199
Here is what Aertzen wrote to me:

25
00:04:15,366 --> 00:04:18,961
''Sire, give the land to the peasants.

26
00:04:19,166 --> 00:04:21,726
''Abolish serfdom.

27
00:04:21,926 --> 00:04:24,645
''Heal the scars
on the backs of our brothers.

28
00:04:24,806 --> 00:04:26,080
''Save the people.

29
00:04:26,286 --> 00:04:28,561
''Spare the blood he must shed.''

30
00:04:29,286 --> 00:04:32,596
Aertzen is an emigrant,
a revolutionary, a journalist:

31
00:04:32,766 --> 00:04:36,395
three reasons to never read
his prose. Isn't that right, gentlemen?

32
00:04:36,606 --> 00:04:41,282
Yet there is someone here
who believes that Aertzen is not wrong

33
00:04:41,446 --> 00:04:43,562
and that serfdom must be abolished.

34
00:04:43,766 --> 00:04:46,724
Oh. And may I know who?

35
00:04:48,366 --> 00:04:49,560
Me.

36
00:04:52,686 --> 00:04:56,804
If I wasn't the emperor,
you would send me to Siberia

37
00:04:57,006 --> 00:05:00,601
for subversive opinion.
Oh, Majesty.

38
00:05:00,806 --> 00:05:04,958
We will return to this question
when the time comes.

39
00:05:05,126 --> 00:05:07,037
Let's look at urgent matters:

40
00:05:07,206 --> 00:05:10,835
appointment of a new governor
for Kazan province.

41
00:05:11,006 --> 00:05:11,882
You proposed...

42
00:05:12,086 --> 00:05:15,840
General Kernovski,
our friend to all.

43
00:05:16,006 --> 00:05:18,042
Your Majesty approved this choice.

44
00:05:20,206 --> 00:05:23,323
Well, I changed my mind.

45
00:05:24,726 --> 00:05:27,240
I named Colonel Vernichov.

46
00:05:30,526 --> 00:05:32,005
Do you know him?

47
00:05:32,206 --> 00:05:34,640
No.
But if Your Majesty has designated him...

48
00:05:34,846 --> 00:05:37,883
You have something
to blame Vernichov?

49
00:05:38,086 --> 00:05:40,122
Absolutely nothing, Your Majesty.

50
00:05:40,286 --> 00:05:43,881
I always thought that Colonel
was a man of valor.

51
00:05:44,126 --> 00:05:45,878
Very high value.

52
00:05:46,046 --> 00:05:48,480
I was going to propose
to appoint him general.

53
00:05:49,766 --> 00:05:52,360
Not possible...

54
00:05:52,526 --> 00:05:55,279
Gentlemen,
I regret to announce to you

55
00:05:55,446 --> 00:05:57,277
that Colonel Vernichov

56
00:05:57,486 --> 00:06:00,956
cannot be appointed general.
And why then?

57
00:06:01,166 --> 00:06:04,841
Because it doesn't exist.
I just made up his name.

58
00:06:05,046 --> 00:06:08,721
I wanted to see how far
you would push cowardice

59
00:06:08,886 --> 00:06:10,080
and sycophancy.

60
00:06:10,286 --> 00:06:14,564
And naturally, I name
General Kernovski,

61
00:06:14,726 --> 00:06:17,877
a brave soldier,
your friend to all of you,

62
00:06:18,046 --> 00:06:20,082
that you give up so easily.

63
00:06:20,286 --> 00:06:22,800
Gentlemen, the meeting is adjourned.
See you tomorrow.

64
00:06:25,326 --> 00:06:28,045
It's for you
that I had this experience,

65
00:06:28,206 --> 00:06:31,915
to show you
that absolute power is dangerous

66
00:06:32,086 --> 00:06:36,682
and it's not always easy
to be the Tsar of all the Russias.

67
00:06:46,566 --> 00:06:47,965
His Majesty.

68
00:06:49,246 --> 00:06:51,123
Take it all away.

69
00:06:51,286 --> 00:06:53,800
Leave me. The mirror.

70
00:07:04,606 --> 00:07:07,564
The doctors all agree:
you are better.

71
00:07:07,726 --> 00:07:11,116
Yet I feel my heart
who beats, who beats.

72
00:07:11,286 --> 00:07:12,799
Alexander...
Cigarette.

73
00:07:12,966 --> 00:07:15,605
I've been worried about you
all day.

74
00:07:15,766 --> 00:07:17,996
You're gone again
without escort.

75
00:07:18,166 --> 00:07:20,475
Don't worry.
Have confidence.

76
00:07:20,646 --> 00:07:23,479
And above all, don't get up yet.
Yes.

77
00:07:23,646 --> 00:07:26,638
When we lie down,
we increase the danger.

78
00:07:26,806 --> 00:07:30,355
I have to go Monday
at the girls' institution.

79
00:07:30,526 --> 00:07:32,801
This is the presentation
student news.

80
00:07:32,966 --> 00:07:36,003
You would have deserved to have
a more valiant woman.

81
00:07:36,166 --> 00:07:39,203
Don't talk so much.
Rest.

82
00:08:03,526 --> 00:08:05,482
We're going to make the news angry.

83
00:08:05,686 --> 00:08:07,756
It hides a portrait of the Tsar.

84
00:08:07,966 --> 00:08:10,719
I saw it and took it.
Look.

85
00:08:10,886 --> 00:08:11,875
Oh...

86
00:08:12,086 --> 00:08:15,635
Which one of you took me
what was under my pillow?

87
00:08:15,806 --> 00:08:17,000
Give it back to me.

88
00:08:18,846 --> 00:08:21,280
Give it back to me.
It was you who took it from me.

89
00:08:21,446 --> 00:08:22,242
It's mine.

90
00:08:22,446 --> 00:08:23,879
Hubbub.

91
00:08:24,046 --> 00:08:24,876
It's mine!

92
00:08:27,966 --> 00:08:29,160
Give it back to me!

93
00:08:37,126 --> 00:08:40,038
Well, ladies,
what is happening?

94
00:08:53,246 --> 00:08:55,680
The young girls
of an imperial boarding school

95
00:08:55,846 --> 00:08:58,599
have the right to be a little
in love with the emperor.

96
00:08:58,766 --> 00:09:01,280
When we were your age,
ladies,

97
00:09:01,446 --> 00:09:04,199
we dreamed
of the late Tsar Nicholas I.

98
00:09:04,366 --> 00:09:06,243
But we respected him.

99
00:09:06,406 --> 00:09:09,637
And none of us would have dared
play with his portrait.

100
00:09:09,806 --> 00:09:12,366
To start,
I confiscate this portrait.

101
00:09:12,526 --> 00:09:14,164
You have no right.

102
00:09:14,326 --> 00:09:17,477
I don't have the right?
You will have zero driving.

103
00:09:17,686 --> 00:09:21,201
Madam, give it back to me,
I beg you, I beg you.

104
00:09:21,366 --> 00:09:22,594
No.

105
00:09:24,686 --> 00:09:28,565
What if I told you
that it is the tsar himself

106
00:09:28,766 --> 00:09:30,722
who gave it to me?
''The Tsar''?

107
00:09:30,926 --> 00:09:32,325
Perfectly, the Tsar.

108
00:09:32,526 --> 00:09:33,675
On what occasion?

109
00:09:35,366 --> 00:09:38,961
He came one day
visit us unexpectedly.

110
00:09:39,166 --> 00:09:40,201
Not possible.

111
00:09:40,366 --> 00:09:43,039
The Tsar visited you
unexpectedly?

112
00:09:43,246 --> 00:09:44,156
Why not ?

113
00:09:44,326 --> 00:09:48,035
The Dolgorukis are a family
as old as the Romanovs.

114
00:09:48,206 --> 00:09:51,198
So what?
So...

115
00:09:51,366 --> 00:09:55,837
We spent the evening together
and we drank champagne.

116
00:09:56,046 --> 00:09:57,923
Do you see that.

117
00:09:58,126 --> 00:10:01,755
And he found me very well brought up.
He told me.

118
00:10:01,926 --> 00:10:04,440
When you put me
a driving zero,

119
00:10:04,606 --> 00:10:06,119
you offend His Majesty.

120
00:10:07,486 --> 00:10:12,037
I am pleased to announce to you
that the empress will not come

121
00:10:12,246 --> 00:10:15,318
and it's the tsar
who announced himself in his place.

122
00:10:15,486 --> 00:10:19,081
We will thus be able to check
the accuracy of this story.

123
00:10:19,246 --> 00:10:20,361
If you lied,

124
00:10:20,566 --> 00:10:21,999
you will be punished.

125
00:10:23,886 --> 00:10:24,682
Now,

126
00:10:24,886 --> 00:10:26,285
I want silence.

127
00:10:28,606 --> 00:10:29,834
Everyone to bed.

128
00:10:42,086 --> 00:10:45,840
Is it true that you know the tsar?
Leave me alone.

129
00:11:21,846 --> 00:11:23,564
Vera lvanovna Novanoff.

130
00:11:24,846 --> 00:11:27,440
First in history,
first in driving.

131
00:11:27,646 --> 00:11:29,364
Congratulations.

132
00:11:29,566 --> 00:11:31,636
- Olga Federovna Orlovska.

133
00:11:33,526 --> 00:11:36,120
1st in recitation, 2nd in conduct.

134
00:11:37,286 --> 00:11:38,321
Well done.

135
00:11:38,526 --> 00:11:41,245
-Elizabeth Pedrovsna Rosovsky.

136
00:11:43,326 --> 00:11:45,317
1st in singing, 3rd in driving.

137
00:11:50,246 --> 00:11:51,679
And...

138
00:11:51,846 --> 00:11:55,361
this Katia Dolgorouki
that I told you about

139
00:11:57,006 --> 00:12:00,965
who, to dazzle us,
dare to pretend

140
00:12:01,126 --> 00:12:03,242
having dined with Your Majesty.

141
00:12:09,926 --> 00:12:10,756
Approach.

142
00:12:14,526 --> 00:12:16,994
Besides,
she is the last one driving.

143
00:12:17,206 --> 00:12:19,162
We ask your permission

144
00:12:19,366 --> 00:12:21,800
to fire her, if she lied to us.

145
00:12:32,486 --> 00:12:34,602
When we had dinner together,

146
00:12:34,766 --> 00:12:37,041
I promised you a walk
by sleigh.

147
00:12:38,206 --> 00:12:40,436
Well today,
I keep my promise.

148
00:12:42,406 --> 00:12:45,125
I would respectfully point out
to your Majesty

149
00:12:45,286 --> 00:12:48,323
that the empress used to
to take for a walk

150
00:12:48,486 --> 00:12:49,805
1st driving.

151
00:12:50,006 --> 00:12:53,078
Well, this year,
it will be the opposite.

152
00:12:53,246 --> 00:12:54,679
I will take the last one

153
00:12:54,886 --> 00:12:58,435
to lecture him.
This will be his punishment.

154
00:12:58,606 --> 00:13:00,039
Go get your coat.

155
00:13:10,446 --> 00:13:12,880
Anastasia Ivanovna Darishkin.

156
00:13:13,046 --> 00:13:14,479
1st in geography.

157
00:13:29,566 --> 00:13:32,956
What got into you
to tell that lie?

158
00:13:33,126 --> 00:13:34,878
They were making fun of me.

159
00:13:35,046 --> 00:13:37,879
So...
So you said anything.

160
00:13:38,046 --> 00:13:40,162
No, not just anything.

161
00:13:40,326 --> 00:13:42,442
Small,
I was already thinking of you.

162
00:13:42,606 --> 00:13:47,396
I saw you arriving home,
and I received you alone.

163
00:13:47,566 --> 00:13:51,684
You, a Dolgoruki,
how come you are here?

164
00:13:51,846 --> 00:13:54,235
At the Institute for Young Girls
without dowry'',

165
00:13:54,406 --> 00:13:56,601
as we used to say among ourselves.

166
00:13:56,766 --> 00:14:00,805
My father died,
the domain was sold,

167
00:14:00,966 --> 00:14:02,160
jewelry too,

168
00:14:02,326 --> 00:14:05,716
even the necklace that was
in the family for 300 years.

169
00:14:05,886 --> 00:14:09,322
Don't you have an officer brother?
Yes. In St. Petersburg.

170
00:14:10,246 --> 00:14:12,999
Father would have wanted
let him make a money marriage,

171
00:14:13,166 --> 00:14:15,600
but he preferred to do
a love marriage.

172
00:14:15,766 --> 00:14:18,041
We are like this,
the Dolgorukis.

173
00:14:20,726 --> 00:14:22,364
I remember.

174
00:14:22,526 --> 00:14:24,835
He didn't ask
to be transferred to the Caucasus?

175
00:14:25,046 --> 00:14:26,320
Yes.

176
00:14:26,486 --> 00:14:28,204
In the provinces,
when you are poor,

177
00:14:28,366 --> 00:14:30,004
it’s less visible.

178
00:14:30,166 --> 00:14:32,555
I would like to forget all that,
today.

179
00:14:32,766 --> 00:14:36,554
What would make you
the most fun today?

180
00:14:36,726 --> 00:14:38,239
Can I say it?
Of course.

181
00:14:38,446 --> 00:14:40,880
You will have everything you want.

182
00:14:41,046 --> 00:14:44,834
So I would like to do
a long walk at full gallop.

183
00:14:45,006 --> 00:14:46,837
At the lake. And push the horses.

184
00:14:56,086 --> 00:14:57,314
Mr Officer,

185
00:14:57,486 --> 00:15:00,603
I have the impression
that I've seen you before somewhere.

186
00:15:00,766 --> 00:15:03,200
I wonder where it could be.

187
00:15:03,366 --> 00:15:05,561
Oh. That, I wonder where.

188
00:15:05,726 --> 00:15:09,241
It's a real Noah's Ark here:
a dog, a goat,

189
00:15:09,406 --> 00:15:12,000
goats, a horse.

190
00:15:12,166 --> 00:15:13,997
Does your horse stay with you?
Yes.

191
00:15:14,166 --> 00:15:17,954
It keeps me warm in the winter,
and he too is less cold.

192
00:15:18,126 --> 00:15:19,718
Alas, he will leave us.

193
00:15:19,886 --> 00:15:22,684
The master decided
to take it with him.

194
00:15:22,846 --> 00:15:24,165
By what right?

195
00:15:24,326 --> 00:15:27,238
I don't have to argue.
I have no land or property.

196
00:15:27,406 --> 00:15:29,362
Why does the master want your horse?

197
00:15:29,566 --> 00:15:33,684
When he loses at cards, he takes
our horses to pay his debts.

198
00:15:33,846 --> 00:15:36,360
If I don't have 5 rubles,
he takes the horse from me.

199
00:15:36,566 --> 00:15:37,601
It's not fair.

200
00:15:37,806 --> 00:15:39,444
It's not fair.

201
00:15:44,486 --> 00:15:46,317
You are right, Katia.

202
00:15:46,486 --> 00:15:49,159
Russia is
the last country in Europe

203
00:15:49,326 --> 00:15:52,363
where there are still serfs.

204
00:15:52,526 --> 00:15:54,676
But one day, that will change.

205
00:15:54,846 --> 00:15:57,485
''A day'' ? When?

206
00:15:57,646 --> 00:16:00,001
Maybe faster
than you believe.

207
00:16:00,166 --> 00:16:01,394
Why are you laughing?

208
00:16:02,406 --> 00:16:06,319
Because this goat looks like
to our dance teacher.

209
00:16:06,486 --> 00:16:09,683
I hope that in dance class,
you are not the last.

210
00:16:09,846 --> 00:16:11,245
Yes.

211
00:16:11,406 --> 00:16:13,966
It bores me,
to dance with the girls.

212
00:16:14,126 --> 00:16:15,923
Oh? Well,

213
00:16:16,126 --> 00:16:18,003
I will make you dance
with boys.

214
00:16:18,166 --> 00:16:20,441
I will present you to the court
at the next ball.

215
00:16:21,446 --> 00:16:24,836
I don't want to go to the ball.
And why not?

216
00:16:25,006 --> 00:16:28,282
Because balls are for
to marry young girls.

217
00:16:29,286 --> 00:16:31,846
Ah, you don't want to get married?
No.

218
00:16:33,006 --> 00:16:34,644
For what ? I don't understand.

219
00:16:36,326 --> 00:16:38,681
Of course,
you can't understand.

220
00:16:40,846 --> 00:16:43,758
What a strange girl you are.

221
00:16:43,926 --> 00:16:47,077
Well I promise you
that no one will talk to you about marriage.

222
00:16:47,286 --> 00:16:50,676
Is it safe?
Since I tell you.

223
00:16:51,766 --> 00:16:53,119
Let's go.

224
00:17:00,726 --> 00:17:02,557
This is for you.
Thank you, sir.

225
00:17:02,726 --> 00:17:03,636
All that?

226
00:17:03,806 --> 00:17:06,366
Yes.
But... 10 rubles?

227
00:17:06,526 --> 00:17:08,357
Keep your horse.

228
00:17:08,526 --> 00:17:10,084
Thank you, officer.

229
00:17:10,246 --> 00:17:11,565
THANKS.

230
00:17:21,886 --> 00:17:23,160
But...

231
00:17:36,086 --> 00:17:38,554
This moral lesson
is very long.

232
00:17:38,726 --> 00:17:41,001
Maybe they had an accident.

233
00:17:41,166 --> 00:17:44,397
He won't have time anymore
to have tea with us.

234
00:17:44,566 --> 00:17:46,204
Traditions are being lost.

235
00:17:46,366 --> 00:17:48,357
- The sleigh, Madam Director.

236
00:17:48,526 --> 00:17:50,994
Quickly ! In two rows,
ladies.

237
00:17:52,406 --> 00:17:54,840
The reverence
when I clap my hands.

238
00:18:07,926 --> 00:18:08,756
Get up,

239
00:18:08,966 --> 00:18:10,160
ladies.

240
00:18:12,806 --> 00:18:16,196
The emperor charges me
to pay you his compliments.

241
00:18:16,366 --> 00:18:17,355
Madam,

242
00:18:17,566 --> 00:18:20,638
he finds your establishment
very well kept.

243
00:18:20,846 --> 00:18:24,725
But he demands a general amnesty
for driving zeros.

244
00:18:24,886 --> 00:18:26,797
Screams of joy.

245
00:18:34,486 --> 00:18:37,444
''Gentlemen delegates
of the nobility,

246
00:18:37,606 --> 00:18:39,995
''the time for reform has come.

247
00:18:40,206 --> 00:18:43,516
''We,
Emperor of all Russia,

248
00:18:43,686 --> 00:18:45,995
''let us proclaim the abolition of serfdom

249
00:18:46,206 --> 00:18:49,516
''and let's grant today
personal freedom

250
00:18:49,726 --> 00:18:52,001
''to 42 million of our subjects.''

251
00:19:10,286 --> 00:19:14,120
I want it, I demand it, I order it.

252
00:19:14,846 --> 00:19:16,916
Long live the Tsar!

253
00:19:32,566 --> 00:19:35,842
No, I won't go.
Do what you want,

254
00:19:36,006 --> 00:19:37,200
I won't go.

255
00:19:39,566 --> 00:19:43,115
When you have a brother coming
to be named captain,

256
00:19:43,326 --> 00:19:45,442
we don't refuse to go to the ball.

257
00:19:45,606 --> 00:19:48,916
Let's not talk about it too much.
It will be official tomorrow morning.

258
00:19:49,086 --> 00:19:51,441
I don't know
where does this favor come from?

259
00:19:51,606 --> 00:19:53,995
However, I have nothing
asked anyone.

260
00:19:54,166 --> 00:19:55,315
You are too modest.

261
00:19:55,526 --> 00:19:58,279
We finally recognize your merits,
that's all.

262
00:19:58,486 --> 00:20:01,876
In any case, we remain
in St. Petersburg all three.

263
00:20:02,046 --> 00:20:02,842
It's wonderful.

264
00:20:03,486 --> 00:20:06,125
There is a gentleman
who asks to be received.

265
00:20:10,806 --> 00:20:14,242
The baron...
I forgot his name.

266
00:20:15,726 --> 00:20:17,444
Baron Chernigovsky,

267
00:20:17,606 --> 00:20:20,723
of the private secretariat
of the emperor.

268
00:20:20,886 --> 00:20:24,879
I am responsible for transmitting to you
the congratulations of His Majesty,

269
00:20:25,046 --> 00:20:27,958
to yourself and your wife.

270
00:20:29,726 --> 00:20:34,516
And also to put this back
to the princess, your sister.

271
00:20:34,686 --> 00:20:37,246
To Katia, from...
His Majesty.

272
00:20:37,406 --> 00:20:40,159
An official sending.
It's up to me to open it.

273
00:20:44,206 --> 00:20:45,605
Oh...

274
00:20:46,526 --> 00:20:48,164
Michael...

275
00:20:48,326 --> 00:20:51,238
Louise, take a good look at this necklace.

276
00:20:52,446 --> 00:20:54,914
He was in the family
for 300 years.

277
00:20:55,126 --> 00:20:58,084
I had to sell it
when our father died.

278
00:20:58,246 --> 00:20:59,281
And here it is.

279
00:21:00,406 --> 00:21:02,044
He's beautiful, isn't he?

280
00:21:06,566 --> 00:21:08,522
- He has never been more beautiful.

281
00:21:14,166 --> 00:21:17,078
- Princess Helena
Feodorovna Oblonski.

282
00:21:20,686 --> 00:21:23,325
Countess Nadine Petrovna Potolky.

283
00:21:34,446 --> 00:21:37,518
Princess Ariana Pavlovna Volkovsky.

284
00:21:47,446 --> 00:21:50,882
Countess Natalia
Nicolayevna Muratoff.

285
00:22:00,446 --> 00:22:03,085
Princess Katarina Dolgorouki.

286
00:22:23,086 --> 00:22:26,203
Countess Nina Pavlovna Javadze.

287
00:22:31,326 --> 00:22:33,476
Are you happy?
Yes.

288
00:22:33,646 --> 00:22:35,841
Everything happens like a dream.

289
00:22:36,046 --> 00:22:38,037
I am wary of this Dolgorouki.

290
00:22:38,246 --> 00:22:41,158
- What do you mean ?
Oh, nothing.

291
00:22:41,326 --> 00:22:44,636
Here is this one suddenly named
to the 1st Guard Regiment,

292
00:22:44,846 --> 00:22:48,156
and without even having asked for anything.

293
00:22:48,326 --> 00:22:50,965
Well, my dear,
I don't like it.

294
00:22:55,286 --> 00:22:58,164
- Princess Sofia Alexeiev....

295
00:23:19,886 --> 00:23:21,638
Poor Maria Alexandrovna.

296
00:23:21,806 --> 00:23:24,366
I'm very afraid
let this be his last ball.

297
00:23:26,126 --> 00:23:29,118
Princess Sofia Alexey Nachevkiaski.

298
00:23:33,446 --> 00:23:37,200
Gentlemen, I would like
introduce you to my sister,

299
00:23:37,366 --> 00:23:38,685
whose first ball it is.

300
00:23:43,966 --> 00:23:46,844
- Countess Alexandrovna Romanov.

301
00:23:47,006 --> 00:23:50,715
Princess Louise Dolgorouki
don't go out often?

302
00:23:50,886 --> 00:23:55,402
Never, Majesty. We find it
at her house every afternoon.

303
00:23:55,566 --> 00:23:58,160
I wish we didn't find it there anymore,

304
00:23:58,326 --> 00:24:02,160
that she be invited often
to have tea.

305
00:24:02,326 --> 00:24:06,524
From tomorrow she will be invited
every day and everywhere.

306
00:24:06,686 --> 00:24:08,802
Skill, nuance.

307
00:24:08,966 --> 00:24:11,526
Your Majesty can count on me.

308
00:24:13,526 --> 00:24:16,598
Who do you think you're with
that the tsar will open the ball?

309
00:24:16,766 --> 00:24:19,075
I think with Baroness Kirianov.

310
00:24:38,886 --> 00:24:42,481
His Majesty asks you to grant him
your first dance.

311
00:24:50,846 --> 00:24:53,360
Waltz.

312
00:24:56,006 --> 00:24:58,236
So what? Is it her?

313
00:24:58,406 --> 00:25:01,682
You are not there, madam.
Look this way instead.

314
00:25:01,886 --> 00:25:04,719
What do you see?
The other princess Dolgorouki.

315
00:25:04,886 --> 00:25:06,604
- With a very beautiful necklace.

316
00:25:06,806 --> 00:25:09,366
Paid 200,000 rubles,
on the imperial cassette.

317
00:25:09,526 --> 00:25:11,244
No. 300.

318
00:25:39,646 --> 00:25:44,003
Dear prince, everyone finds
your lovely wife.

319
00:25:44,166 --> 00:25:47,636
And I beg her to grant me
this dance. Do you allow me?

320
00:25:49,286 --> 00:25:52,483
And it's true.
You have had a prodigious success this evening.

321
00:25:57,086 --> 00:26:00,362
Why didn't you put the necklace on
What did I send you?

322
00:26:00,526 --> 00:26:04,360
I was afraid it would be noticed.
My brother being the head of the family,

323
00:26:04,526 --> 00:26:07,165
she's his wife
who should have the honor

324
00:26:07,326 --> 00:26:09,681
to wear it the first evening.

325
00:26:11,326 --> 00:26:14,079
Who will you dance with
the second dance?

326
00:26:15,966 --> 00:26:17,763
With no one.

327
00:26:17,926 --> 00:26:21,236
After you, I won't dance
never again with anyone.

328
00:27:05,686 --> 00:27:07,165
A door opens.

329
00:27:14,246 --> 00:27:15,838
Your Majesty.

330
00:27:16,926 --> 00:27:19,520
You know, you're already fined.

331
00:27:19,686 --> 00:27:22,280
Every time
that you call me ''Majesty'' here,

332
00:27:22,446 --> 00:27:24,038
you owe me a pledge.

333
00:27:25,526 --> 00:27:26,720
Choose.

334
00:27:32,926 --> 00:27:35,281
Um... Tea.

335
00:27:38,006 --> 00:27:39,405
He's waiting for you.

336
00:27:42,606 --> 00:27:44,403
Do you want to play cards?

337
00:27:44,606 --> 00:27:45,959
No. You are cheating.

338
00:27:46,726 --> 00:27:47,715
Me ?

339
00:27:47,926 --> 00:27:50,315
Yes. I win too often.

340
00:27:50,486 --> 00:27:52,522
And I don't want any more gifts.

341
00:27:52,686 --> 00:27:55,325
So what?
Backgammon.

342
00:27:55,486 --> 00:27:57,522
I will be able to monitor you better.

343
00:27:59,206 --> 00:28:02,198
GOOD. So begin.

344
00:28:07,086 --> 00:28:08,280
1 2.

345
00:28:12,246 --> 00:28:13,440
Yours.

346
00:28:17,246 --> 00:28:18,361
It's funny.

347
00:28:18,526 --> 00:28:21,438
Every time you come,
my sister-in-law went out.

348
00:28:21,606 --> 00:28:22,959
We invite him everywhere.

349
00:28:23,166 --> 00:28:26,044
She never proposes to you
to take you with her?

350
00:28:27,006 --> 00:28:28,359
I manage to stay.

351
00:28:28,526 --> 00:28:30,801
I'm not that stupid
that I look like it.

352
00:28:31,006 --> 00:28:34,635
What does your brother say,
when he learns that I have come?

353
00:28:36,646 --> 00:28:38,398
Not to say it too much,

354
00:28:38,566 --> 00:28:40,796
because we could say things.

355
00:28:41,006 --> 00:28:43,884
What “things”?
You're just a kid, let's see.

356
00:28:44,886 --> 00:28:46,604
It seems not.

357
00:28:48,486 --> 00:28:50,204
It's true that you have grown up.

358
00:28:52,326 --> 00:28:54,396
It seems to bore you.

359
00:28:57,406 --> 00:28:58,202
Yes.

360
00:28:59,686 --> 00:29:02,484
Because it will be necessary
that I come less often.

361
00:29:03,646 --> 00:29:06,956
There you go, I lost,
and even without cheating.

362
00:29:07,926 --> 00:29:10,759
So can I give you a gift?
No.

363
00:29:14,086 --> 00:29:17,442
Come back tomorrow.
This will be my gift.

364
00:29:38,206 --> 00:29:39,321
Good evening.
Good evening.

365
00:29:39,486 --> 00:29:40,760
Good evening.

366
00:29:42,286 --> 00:29:44,117
200 rubles.
300.

367
00:29:44,286 --> 00:29:45,435
I give up.

368
00:29:45,606 --> 00:29:48,279
Who wants my place?
Do you allow it?

369
00:29:48,446 --> 00:29:51,199
In this case, me too,
I leave the table.

370
00:29:51,406 --> 00:29:53,442
You refuse to play with me?

371
00:29:53,606 --> 00:29:56,598
I especially prefer
not to play against you.

372
00:29:56,766 --> 00:29:59,519
Do you blame me for playing
in an incorrect way?

373
00:29:59,686 --> 00:30:02,917
No. I prefer not to
measure myself against someone

374
00:30:03,086 --> 00:30:05,884
whose luck is too great,
for some time.

375
00:30:06,046 --> 00:30:08,401
What are you implying?
Nothing.

376
00:30:08,566 --> 00:30:10,477
You understood very well.

377
00:30:10,646 --> 00:30:13,444
What if I sent you two
of my friends tomorrow morning?

378
00:30:13,606 --> 00:30:17,804
Take care. I don't have the chance
being married, but I shoot very well.

379
00:30:22,966 --> 00:30:26,925
This action will cost you dearly.
Tomorrow you will be dead.

380
00:30:28,686 --> 00:30:32,122
Captain Petrov,
Vasily Novichensky,

381
00:30:32,286 --> 00:30:35,084
you will serve as my witnesses
for this matter.

382
00:30:44,086 --> 00:30:45,599
Come, Michel.

383
00:31:25,646 --> 00:31:27,159
Katie?

384
00:31:32,006 --> 00:31:33,280
Katie?

385
00:31:40,726 --> 00:31:43,445
Where are you taking me?
Nowhere.

386
00:31:44,286 --> 00:31:47,084
I came to say goodbye to you.

387
00:31:47,246 --> 00:31:50,204
Are you leaving?
No, Katie.

388
00:31:51,006 --> 00:31:52,519
You're the one who's going to leave.

389
00:31:53,686 --> 00:31:56,678
You will go to Paris
to finish your studies.

390
00:31:57,726 --> 00:31:58,636
No.

391
00:31:58,846 --> 00:32:02,634
Do you refuse?
Would you dare to disobey me?

392
00:32:02,846 --> 00:32:07,522
Yes, because I love you.
Too bad, I said it.

393
00:32:07,726 --> 00:32:11,605
I have loved you since day 1.
I will never love another man.

394
00:32:12,446 --> 00:32:14,243
You're leaving. It's an order.

395
00:32:16,206 --> 00:32:17,878
As you speak to me.

396
00:32:19,366 --> 00:32:21,596
So it's true,
you don't love me.

397
00:32:22,606 --> 00:32:23,402
Say it,

398
00:32:23,606 --> 00:32:26,200
and very high
so that it hurts me.

399
00:32:26,406 --> 00:32:30,638
Say: ''Katia, I don't love you.
I will never love you.''

400
00:32:30,846 --> 00:32:32,359
Say.

401
00:32:32,526 --> 00:32:35,518
''Katia, I don't love you.
I will never love you.''

402
00:32:39,686 --> 00:32:40,880
Good.

403
00:32:42,046 --> 00:32:45,163
Stop the car,
let me go down.

404
00:32:46,326 --> 00:32:48,317
Stop. No.

405
00:32:51,006 --> 00:32:54,237
Katia, that's not true.

406
00:32:54,406 --> 00:32:56,681
I lied. I love you.

407
00:32:57,886 --> 00:33:01,117
I love you. I lied to you, Katia.

408
00:33:01,286 --> 00:33:04,278
But you have to leave.
You have to.

409
00:33:12,486 --> 00:33:15,637
Gunshots.

410
00:33:42,046 --> 00:33:43,684
I'm going to leave, Louise.

411
00:33:44,566 --> 00:33:46,875
I will stay in Paris
at least two years.

412
00:33:47,646 --> 00:33:49,364
When will we see each other again?

413
00:33:51,886 --> 00:33:53,956
Don't you want to say goodbye to me?

414
00:33:55,366 --> 00:33:56,765
Farewell.

415
00:33:58,566 --> 00:34:01,034
It's not my fault, Louise.

416
00:35:29,966 --> 00:35:32,082
- Present weapons.

417
00:35:33,446 --> 00:35:35,960
Military band.

418
00:35:39,566 --> 00:35:40,999
My dear cousin.

419
00:36:11,886 --> 00:36:14,844
Cheers.

420
00:36:42,366 --> 00:36:44,243
I'm afraid to see him again.

421
00:36:44,966 --> 00:36:47,400
I'm afraid he has changed
of feelings.

422
00:36:47,566 --> 00:36:49,602
It's been so long...

423
00:36:49,766 --> 00:36:52,917
When you were a child,
you were tormenting yourself over nothing.

424
00:36:53,086 --> 00:36:56,158
Have confidence. He writes to you
every day for 2 years.

425
00:36:56,326 --> 00:36:58,601
Except for a week.
Because of the trip.

426
00:36:58,766 --> 00:37:01,485
We don't forget someone
in a week.

427
00:37:01,646 --> 00:37:04,479
It doesn't matter. I'm worried.

428
00:37:39,166 --> 00:37:40,565
Gunshot.

429
00:37:40,726 --> 00:37:42,318
Screams of panic.

430
00:38:05,886 --> 00:38:07,444
Trotting horse.

431
00:38:43,046 --> 00:38:46,675
It's incredible. We don't know anything.
Nobody knows anything.

432
00:38:46,846 --> 00:38:47,961
And no newspapers.

433
00:38:48,126 --> 00:38:51,163
In these cases, we should
make a special edition.

434
00:38:52,286 --> 00:38:54,675
I'm going to go to the embassy,
at the Élysée.

435
00:38:54,846 --> 00:38:56,199
I need to know.

436
00:38:56,366 --> 00:39:00,041
They won't tell you anything.
They won't let you in.

437
00:39:00,206 --> 00:39:02,481
Yes, I will go. I have to see him.

438
00:39:03,606 --> 00:39:05,164
Trotting horse.

439
00:39:38,286 --> 00:39:39,480
Katie?

440
00:40:19,806 --> 00:40:21,558
You are alive!

441
00:40:21,726 --> 00:40:22,920
Alive.

442
00:40:23,086 --> 00:40:25,156
Katia, my love.

443
00:40:50,126 --> 00:40:53,198
Now I can die.
Everything doesn't matter to me.

444
00:40:54,246 --> 00:40:59,001
I've been waiting for two years,
7 1 1 days exactly.

445
00:40:59,166 --> 00:41:00,724
I counted them.

446
00:41:01,806 --> 00:41:03,398
I like your hair.

447
00:41:04,846 --> 00:41:06,199
I like your mouth.

448
00:41:09,486 --> 00:41:12,205
Every morning,
before opening your eyes,

449
00:41:12,366 --> 00:41:15,005
I try to imagine you
very close to me.

450
00:41:15,166 --> 00:41:17,236
You're here for good.

451
00:41:17,406 --> 00:41:21,319
And I'm your wife for a day.
Forever.

452
00:41:21,486 --> 00:41:24,000
One day is already good, you know.

453
00:41:24,166 --> 00:41:26,521
I said, “Forever.”

454
00:41:29,006 --> 00:41:33,841
But, Katia, this evening,
I won't be able to have dinner with you.

455
00:41:37,166 --> 00:41:40,556
I know. I had read it
in the newspapers.

456
00:41:40,726 --> 00:41:41,761
Oh.

457
00:41:41,926 --> 00:41:44,963
There is a party
where you are with the king of England.

458
00:41:45,126 --> 00:41:49,642
The Queen of England.
The queen, the king of Bavaria...

459
00:41:49,806 --> 00:41:52,036
It's not to see them
that I leave you.

460
00:41:52,206 --> 00:41:55,676
They are cousins,
and I don't have a sense of family.

461
00:41:55,846 --> 00:42:00,203
But after an attack, a sovereign
must appear in public.

462
00:42:00,366 --> 00:42:04,518
It’s the job that demands it.
The damn job.

463
00:42:05,766 --> 00:42:06,960
Katie...

464
00:42:08,966 --> 00:42:12,163
Tell me to go do my job.
You have to.

465
00:42:13,126 --> 00:42:14,957
Since it is necessary...

466
00:42:15,886 --> 00:42:17,444
Thank you.

467
00:42:20,886 --> 00:42:22,319
Listen, Katya.

468
00:42:24,086 --> 00:42:27,123
If I ever had to
find myself alone,

469
00:42:27,286 --> 00:42:29,516
I would like to make you
my companion

470
00:42:30,406 --> 00:42:33,318
before God and before men.

471
00:42:35,246 --> 00:42:37,601
You must not think
to the impossible.

472
00:42:40,046 --> 00:42:41,240
Will I see you again tomorrow?

473
00:42:42,446 --> 00:42:43,720
The day after tomorrow?

474
00:42:44,686 --> 00:42:46,483
The day after tomorrow, I leave Paris.

475
00:42:47,526 --> 00:42:50,518
But I can't anymore
without you.

476
00:42:54,526 --> 00:42:57,199
I want you to come back
in St. Petersburg.

477
00:42:58,006 --> 00:42:59,837
No matter what anyone says.

478
00:43:00,646 --> 00:43:02,602
You're going to have your own house

479
00:43:02,806 --> 00:43:05,274
and I will come
every day to see you.

480
00:43:05,446 --> 00:43:08,006
Well, as long as you love me.

481
00:43:09,686 --> 00:43:12,246
I will love you
until my last day.

482
00:43:28,646 --> 00:43:31,763
The emperor does not suspect
still not that he is being followed?

483
00:43:31,926 --> 00:43:35,282
No, Excellency. We change
inspectors every day.

484
00:43:35,486 --> 00:43:38,319
He went again
at Princess Dolgorouki’s?

485
00:43:38,526 --> 00:43:41,598
Yes, Excellency.
Like every day for 6 months.

486
00:43:41,766 --> 00:43:45,395
Every time the emperor comes out
with a document bag,

487
00:43:45,606 --> 00:43:48,803
it’s that he’s going to her house.
Remember this detail carefully.

488
00:43:48,966 --> 00:43:50,684
And today’s envelope?

489
00:43:50,886 --> 00:43:53,605
Here it is. But the man
doesn't want to continue.

490
00:43:53,766 --> 00:43:56,439
He says that his conscience
torments him.

491
00:43:56,606 --> 00:43:59,245
Give him 20 rubles more.

492
00:43:59,406 --> 00:44:01,397
Thank you, gentlemen.

493
00:44:07,646 --> 00:44:10,444
I don't understand
your concerns, Koubaroff.

494
00:44:10,606 --> 00:44:13,518
We have interest
so that the Tsar has a mistress.

495
00:44:13,686 --> 00:44:16,758
When the tsar is having fun,
ministers can dance.

496
00:44:16,966 --> 00:44:20,436
I don't think you'll dance anymore
very long time.

497
00:44:20,606 --> 00:44:23,200
Also improbable
let it appear,

498
00:44:23,406 --> 00:44:25,795
I have the impression
that this little princess

499
00:44:26,006 --> 00:44:29,840
is becoming
the gray eminence of His Majesty.

500
00:44:30,006 --> 00:44:32,315
In any case,
I promise you one thing:

501
00:44:33,086 --> 00:44:35,554
I will break it,
this kid.

502
00:44:39,086 --> 00:44:43,125
You must not receive anyone,
Majesty. You're too tired.

503
00:44:43,286 --> 00:44:45,322
These are your tips
which tire me.

504
00:44:45,486 --> 00:44:46,760
Tell him to come in.

505
00:45:08,846 --> 00:45:10,438
I dare to hope that...

506
00:45:10,606 --> 00:45:13,325
I will spare you the politeness.
Sit down.

507
00:45:15,926 --> 00:45:19,236
Is the Tsar's life in danger?
Yes.

508
00:45:19,406 --> 00:45:22,204
Groups of revolutionaries
were formed.

509
00:45:22,406 --> 00:45:25,523
We are throwing leaflets.
The tyrant is threatened with death.

510
00:45:25,686 --> 00:45:26,675
Koubaroff!

511
00:45:28,526 --> 00:45:30,482
That's the word they use.

512
00:45:31,606 --> 00:45:33,278
The university should be closed.

513
00:45:33,486 --> 00:45:36,046
We will get there.
In the meantime, we should

514
00:45:36,246 --> 00:45:40,364
that the emperor does not surrender
every day and without escort

515
00:45:40,566 --> 00:45:41,760
in town.

516
00:45:42,686 --> 00:45:45,154
I tried to talk to him:
he doesn't listen to me.

517
00:45:45,326 --> 00:45:48,716
He won't listen to me either.
He's crazy about this girl.

518
00:45:48,886 --> 00:45:53,801
In the past, he often worked
in the evening, near you?

519
00:45:53,966 --> 00:45:57,515
Yes.
Now he works at her house.

520
00:45:57,726 --> 00:46:01,435
And she inspires him
abominable projects,

521
00:46:01,646 --> 00:46:05,082
projects that threaten
the principles of the imperial regime.

522
00:46:05,246 --> 00:46:08,795
For example,
the right to vote for the people.

523
00:46:08,966 --> 00:46:10,558
No ?
Yes.

524
00:46:14,126 --> 00:46:16,196
Russia is lost.

525
00:46:16,366 --> 00:46:18,084
It's all up to you, ma'am.

526
00:46:18,286 --> 00:46:20,720
We can still act.

527
00:46:20,886 --> 00:46:25,084
But I won't dare do anything
without the consent and protection

528
00:46:25,286 --> 00:46:27,117
of Your Majesty.

529
00:46:27,286 --> 00:46:30,039
What else can we do but pray to God?

530
00:46:30,206 --> 00:46:34,563
God often answers prayers
of a Minister of Police.

531
00:46:35,766 --> 00:46:38,519
So what should I ask God?

532
00:46:38,726 --> 00:46:40,717
To call her back to Him, for example?

533
00:46:42,046 --> 00:46:45,277
Koubaroff...
It's about Russia, ma'am.

534
00:46:46,646 --> 00:46:48,443
God would surely listen to us.

535
00:46:49,046 --> 00:46:52,595
Yes. And that would be wonderful.

536
00:46:53,566 --> 00:46:56,444
But the emperor
would be so sad...

537
00:46:56,646 --> 00:46:59,035
Exactly, you would console him.

538
00:46:59,206 --> 00:47:01,640
I wouldn't have the strength anymore.

539
00:47:01,806 --> 00:47:03,524
If the emperor returned to you,

540
00:47:03,686 --> 00:47:06,883
your strength would also return to you,
maybe.

541
00:47:08,006 --> 00:47:11,476
SO ?
I don't know.

542
00:47:11,646 --> 00:47:13,125
You torture me.

543
00:47:15,126 --> 00:47:18,243
I will give you my answer
in a few days.

544
00:48:07,366 --> 00:48:11,882
And then I like to wait for you
every day here in our house.

545
00:48:12,046 --> 00:48:15,322
It makes me feel
to belong to you from a distance.

546
00:48:16,566 --> 00:48:19,797
Only, I'm going out anyway
in the morning, in secret.

547
00:48:19,966 --> 00:48:21,718
''In secret''?
Yes.

548
00:48:21,886 --> 00:48:23,604
I put on a peasant scarf

549
00:48:23,766 --> 00:48:25,757
and I listen to what people say about you.

550
00:48:25,926 --> 00:48:27,803
And what do people say about me?

551
00:48:29,006 --> 00:48:30,997
We love Your Majesty very much.

552
00:48:31,766 --> 00:48:36,760
But My Majesty demands that you do
your report to the end.

553
00:48:38,246 --> 00:48:41,443
Well, we don't like your ministers.
Me neither.

554
00:48:41,606 --> 00:48:45,235
Change them.
But who to put in their place?

555
00:48:46,366 --> 00:48:49,722
When you have absolute power,
no one tells you the truth.

556
00:48:49,886 --> 00:48:52,275
So down with absolute power.

557
00:48:55,006 --> 00:48:57,759
Fortunately
that Koubaroff cannot hear you.

558
00:48:57,926 --> 00:48:59,962
He would send you to prison.

559
00:49:00,126 --> 00:49:04,039
He would then have to send
half of Russia in prison.

560
00:49:05,166 --> 00:49:06,838
Tell me, Katia,

561
00:49:08,606 --> 00:49:11,723
since your return
in Saint Petersburg,

562
00:49:11,886 --> 00:49:12,875
do you read a lot?

563
00:49:15,126 --> 00:49:15,922
Yes.

564
00:49:16,126 --> 00:49:17,275
Forbidden books?

565
00:49:17,486 --> 00:49:19,124
Where do you hide them?

566
00:49:22,046 --> 00:49:23,115
There.

567
00:49:43,566 --> 00:49:45,921
You are not going to scold me,
at least?

568
00:49:46,086 --> 00:49:48,236
But no. I have the same ones.

569
00:49:48,406 --> 00:49:50,715
I hide them
in my bedroom.

570
00:49:50,886 --> 00:49:54,925
Here, give me the file
that I confided to you the other day.

571
00:49:57,926 --> 00:50:01,441
These are drafts
reforms, which are still insufficient.

572
00:50:01,606 --> 00:50:03,722
The entire regime must be reformed.

573
00:50:04,486 --> 00:50:05,885
Cry.

574
00:50:09,926 --> 00:50:11,279
What do you have?

575
00:50:12,006 --> 00:50:14,725
What is it?
A man behind the glass.

576
00:50:14,926 --> 00:50:16,075
But no.

577
00:50:16,286 --> 00:50:19,881
But no, there's no one there.
I didn't dream, all the same.

578
00:50:20,086 --> 00:50:22,475
Another one of Koubaroff's police officers.

579
00:50:22,926 --> 00:50:25,235
Wherever I go,
police officers everywhere.

580
00:50:25,926 --> 00:50:28,565
I abolished slavery in Russia.

581
00:50:28,726 --> 00:50:31,194
There's still one left: it's me.

582
00:50:31,366 --> 00:50:32,924
My coat.

583
00:50:33,086 --> 00:50:35,122
I have to leave you.
No.

584
00:50:35,286 --> 00:50:37,720
Not yet.
I'm not at peace.

585
00:50:37,886 --> 00:50:39,444
Don't be afraid.

586
00:50:40,606 --> 00:50:42,164
See you tomorrow.

587
00:50:59,846 --> 00:51:00,676
Gunshot.

588
00:51:19,566 --> 00:51:20,760
Alexander!

589
00:51:21,766 --> 00:51:22,960
Alexander!

590
00:51:24,046 --> 00:51:25,843
My love...

591
00:51:26,006 --> 00:51:28,804
You see, nothing can happen to me.

592
00:52:18,126 --> 00:52:21,914
''We, Marie Alexandrovna,
Empress of all Russia,

593
00:52:22,126 --> 00:52:26,517
"let us decide to grant to our feale
Catherine Mikhailovna,

594
00:52:26,726 --> 00:52:30,605
''Princess Dolgorouki,
the charge of palace maid

595
00:52:30,806 --> 00:52:34,082
''attached to Our Imperial Majesty.''

596
00:52:35,766 --> 00:52:37,404
I thank Your Majesty,

597
00:52:37,566 --> 00:52:40,160
but I feel unworthy
of such favor

598
00:52:40,326 --> 00:52:42,362
and I ask his permission to...

599
00:52:42,526 --> 00:52:46,883
To refuse? Well, no.
I deny you the right to refuse.

600
00:52:47,046 --> 00:52:48,240
Leave me.

601
00:52:56,726 --> 00:53:00,799
The emperor risks being killed
every time he passes through town.

602
00:53:00,966 --> 00:53:02,524
Do you understand why

603
00:53:02,726 --> 00:53:06,321
I demand that you stay here?
Your Majesty, please.

604
00:53:06,526 --> 00:53:11,361
Little fool, you suppose
that I am setting a trap for you.

605
00:53:11,566 --> 00:53:15,798
You are afraid for yourself.
For your life, perhaps.

606
00:53:16,006 --> 00:53:18,804
here, I swear to you
that you will be safe,

607
00:53:19,006 --> 00:53:21,964
and I believe you will need it.

608
00:53:22,126 --> 00:53:24,799
It's not about me, madam,
but I fear...

609
00:53:25,006 --> 00:53:27,566
To no longer see the one
what do you like?

610
00:53:27,726 --> 00:53:29,205
Rest assured.

611
00:53:29,406 --> 00:53:31,761
Don't believe
May I be good and generous.

612
00:53:31,966 --> 00:53:36,005
But for the emperor to live,
I am ready to accept everything.

613
00:53:36,206 --> 00:53:39,596
May he be happy, even with you.

614
00:53:39,806 --> 00:53:42,957
I should envy you, hate you,

615
00:53:43,126 --> 00:53:46,118
but when we see it approaching
the last days,

616
00:53:46,286 --> 00:53:48,402
we look at things from a higher level.

617
00:53:48,606 --> 00:53:51,916
You look like
to the young girl I was before.

618
00:53:52,126 --> 00:53:54,560
We loved each other,
Alexander and I,

619
00:53:54,726 --> 00:53:56,717
more than you will ever love each other.

620
00:53:56,926 --> 00:54:00,965
Madam...
Now it's all over for me.

621
00:54:01,126 --> 00:54:03,845
I spent my life
to tremble for him,

622
00:54:04,006 --> 00:54:05,359
day, night,

623
00:54:05,966 --> 00:54:07,479
non-stop.

624
00:54:07,646 --> 00:54:11,878
Every time I hear go out
the car, my heart hurts.

625
00:54:12,046 --> 00:54:16,324
It's because he hurt me too much
that it will soon stop beating.

626
00:54:16,486 --> 00:54:20,035
And then it will be your turn
to listen to the noises,

627
00:54:20,206 --> 00:54:22,845
to tremble, to be in pain...

628
00:54:23,446 --> 00:54:26,085
Now your turn.

629
00:54:26,686 --> 00:54:28,597
Your turn...

630
00:54:42,446 --> 00:54:44,437
Prayers.

631
00:54:51,606 --> 00:54:54,040
Bells.

632
00:55:14,886 --> 00:55:17,446
Cannons and bells fired.

633
00:56:36,926 --> 00:56:40,965
Russian people, remember those
who die in the name of freedom!

634
00:56:41,126 --> 00:56:44,084
Long live the revolution!
Death to the tyrant!

635
00:56:45,046 --> 00:56:47,719
Long live the revolution!
Death to the tyrant!

636
00:56:47,886 --> 00:56:49,444
Long live the revolution!

637
00:56:49,606 --> 00:56:52,040
Long live the revolution!
Death to the tyrant!

638
00:56:52,246 --> 00:56:55,477
Long live the revolution!
Death to the tyrant!

639
00:57:21,246 --> 00:57:22,884
Wait for me here.

640
00:57:35,326 --> 00:57:38,477
What is worth to me
the great honor of your visit?

641
00:57:38,646 --> 00:57:39,965
Curiosity?

642
00:57:40,166 --> 00:57:43,158
Did you want to see your killer?
No.

643
00:57:44,406 --> 00:57:45,805
The irony?

644
00:57:48,326 --> 00:57:50,123
Are you making fun of my clumsiness?

645
00:57:50,806 --> 00:57:54,037
I came to ask you a question.
Sit down.

646
00:57:56,246 --> 00:57:58,077
Sit down!

647
00:58:01,406 --> 00:58:04,079
What are the reasons
of your gesture?

648
00:58:04,246 --> 00:58:06,043
How to answer you?

649
00:58:06,246 --> 00:58:08,840
The prosecutor treated me
of 'mad dog'.

650
00:58:09,006 --> 00:58:11,440
We don't discuss
with a mad dog.

651
00:58:11,606 --> 00:58:13,164
We leave him alone.

652
00:58:14,486 --> 00:58:18,877
We are not in court.
Here, no one listens to you.

653
00:58:19,046 --> 00:58:21,355
I want to talk to you
from man to man.

654
00:58:25,926 --> 00:58:28,156
''Man to man''?
Quite simply.

655
00:58:29,046 --> 00:58:30,843
Why do you hate me?

656
00:58:31,766 --> 00:58:34,997
You are a peasant's son,
and I gave freedom to the peasants.

657
00:58:35,206 --> 00:58:37,276
it was necessary
give them the land, too.

658
00:58:37,446 --> 00:58:39,596
What is freedom,
when you are cold

659
00:58:39,766 --> 00:58:42,803
and we don't even have
where to buy tools?

660
00:58:45,086 --> 00:58:46,724
I had schools built.

661
00:58:47,486 --> 00:58:48,601
I know it well.

662
00:58:48,766 --> 00:58:51,485
It's in one of your schools
that I learned to read.

663
00:58:51,686 --> 00:58:54,519
It's thanks to you,
if I became a revolutionary.

664
00:58:54,686 --> 00:58:58,474
You found work.
You have been appointed a teacher.

665
00:58:58,646 --> 00:59:00,364
Listen to me, Solovyov.

666
00:59:00,966 --> 00:59:02,479
When you were a teacher,

667
00:59:02,646 --> 00:59:06,241
would you have admitted
that your students lay down the law?

668
00:59:06,406 --> 00:59:08,044
Well...

669
00:59:08,206 --> 00:59:10,925
Me too,
I'm a kind of teacher.

670
00:59:11,086 --> 00:59:12,917
Only, in my own class,

671
00:59:13,126 --> 00:59:15,686
there are more than 1 00 million students.

672
00:59:15,886 --> 00:59:18,400
I have the right to demand
of discipline.

673
00:59:18,566 --> 00:59:21,524
You treat the Russians
like children?

674
00:59:21,686 --> 00:59:24,996
They still are,
you know it very well.

675
00:59:26,606 --> 00:59:30,315
It's scary to see
how similar we are.

676
00:59:31,806 --> 00:59:34,957
You, you have gambled your life,
and I risk mine

677
00:59:35,126 --> 00:59:37,435
every day. For what ?

678
00:59:37,646 --> 00:59:39,876
Because we love our people.

679
00:59:42,406 --> 00:59:46,001
If you weren't emperor,
I would have liked to become your friend.

680
00:59:46,166 --> 00:59:47,565
Only here we are

681
00:59:47,726 --> 00:59:50,081
on both sides of the barricade,

682
00:59:50,246 --> 00:59:52,521
and that is stronger than anything.

683
00:59:53,606 --> 00:59:55,244
There is another difference
between us.

684
00:59:55,406 --> 00:59:56,555
Which ?

685
00:59:57,686 --> 01:00:00,246
You are partisan
of the death penalty.

686
01:00:00,406 --> 01:00:02,920
Me ?
Of course.

687
01:00:03,086 --> 01:00:05,316
You have condemned me.

688
01:00:05,486 --> 01:00:08,876
Well, I came
to announce your grace to you.

689
01:00:09,046 --> 01:00:10,115
My “grace”?

690
01:00:10,326 --> 01:00:12,635
You don't have
to sign your appeal,

691
01:00:12,806 --> 01:00:14,524
and tonight you will be free.

692
01:00:15,246 --> 01:00:17,282
I won't sign.

693
01:00:17,446 --> 01:00:20,518
I don't want to owe anything
on a diet that I hate.

694
01:00:23,366 --> 01:00:27,484
Books have dried out your heart.
I pity you.

695
01:00:29,926 --> 01:00:31,200
Save your pity.

696
01:00:32,406 --> 01:00:35,523
You will need it one day
for yourself!

697
01:00:43,046 --> 01:00:46,755
Bells.

698
01:01:09,326 --> 01:01:11,442
Gunshot.

699
01:01:21,646 --> 01:01:23,796
Let us pray to the Lord.

700
01:01:25,286 --> 01:01:27,004
Organ.

701
01:01:57,806 --> 01:02:00,081
Kiss each other, my children.

702
01:02:10,246 --> 01:02:14,205
Katia, our wedding
must still remain secret.

703
01:02:14,366 --> 01:02:16,402
But I swear to you
that before the end...

704
01:02:20,686 --> 01:02:23,154
A bomb placed
just under the dining room.

705
01:02:23,326 --> 01:02:25,601
It should have exploded
during supper.

706
01:02:25,766 --> 01:02:27,757
Injured people?
Probably.

707
01:02:27,926 --> 01:02:30,759
Katia, the general
will take you back

708
01:02:30,926 --> 01:02:32,325
to your apartments.

709
01:02:32,486 --> 01:02:34,317
I will join you
just now.

710
01:02:50,166 --> 01:02:51,485
Thank you, general.

711
01:03:13,926 --> 01:03:17,601
Don't shout. Don't move.
Who are you ?

712
01:03:18,606 --> 01:03:20,119
It's easy to guess.

713
01:03:20,326 --> 01:03:22,601
The one who succeeded
to get married.

714
01:03:22,766 --> 01:03:23,994
We are aware.

715
01:03:24,206 --> 01:03:27,243
Our wedding gift
broke out an hour too early,

716
01:03:27,406 --> 01:03:30,239
but it's only a postponement.
Don't move!

717
01:03:31,886 --> 01:03:35,196
If you shoot, we come.
If you go out, you'll be arrested.

718
01:03:35,366 --> 01:03:36,401
You're taken.

719
01:03:36,606 --> 01:03:38,483
They won't take me alive.

720
01:03:39,366 --> 01:03:40,845
Your hand is shaking.

721
01:03:43,286 --> 01:03:45,402
You will sign me
a pass.

722
01:03:46,806 --> 01:03:48,000
Write.

723
01:03:51,246 --> 01:03:54,238
We put up signed posters
''Land and freedom''.

724
01:03:54,406 --> 01:03:57,762
Do you belong to this group?
Do you read our posters?

725
01:03:59,326 --> 01:04:01,999
This week, we distributed
new leaflets.

726
01:04:02,166 --> 01:04:03,440
Did you print them?

727
01:04:04,486 --> 01:04:06,636
What ?
Do you also read our leaflets?

728
01:04:07,526 --> 01:04:12,316
I give you reason to claim
the right to vote and the Constitution.

729
01:04:12,486 --> 01:04:15,046
Don't try
to fall asleep with your words.

730
01:04:15,246 --> 01:04:16,884
Sign or I'll shoot.

731
01:04:17,726 --> 01:04:21,116
Show me your wound.
It's none of your business. Sign.

732
01:04:30,646 --> 01:04:35,003
What are you waiting for?
Call. So call.

733
01:04:35,166 --> 01:04:36,645
I have time.

734
01:04:36,806 --> 01:04:40,321
Who are you ?
I burned my papers.

735
01:04:40,486 --> 01:04:43,444
When they hang me,
an anonymous woman will be hanged.

736
01:04:43,606 --> 01:04:46,040
Do you know who
will your death be of service?

737
01:04:46,206 --> 01:04:50,040
To the cause.
No. To the reactionaries,

738
01:04:50,246 --> 01:04:53,602
to everyone who wants
that the tsar repeals the decrees,

739
01:04:53,766 --> 01:04:57,361
that he reestablishes serfdom
and corporal punishment.

740
01:04:57,526 --> 01:04:59,403
It is for them that you work,

741
01:04:59,606 --> 01:05:00,800
without knowing it.

742
01:05:00,966 --> 01:05:04,117
The Tsar deceived us.
He promised the Constitution.

743
01:05:04,326 --> 01:05:06,521
He's been working there for years.

744
01:05:06,726 --> 01:05:08,956
Everything is ready.
But your friends don't know it.

745
01:05:09,166 --> 01:05:11,396
Someone has to warn them.

746
01:05:11,606 --> 01:05:13,039
There is a knock at the door.

747
01:05:22,526 --> 01:05:24,482
Enter.

748
01:05:35,806 --> 01:05:36,636
Thank you, Fyodor.

749
01:05:52,126 --> 01:05:54,401
You will warn them, your friends.

750
01:05:54,566 --> 01:05:56,557
That someone will be you.

751
01:05:56,726 --> 01:06:00,435
After this attack, the tsar will
surely give up on his plans.

752
01:06:00,606 --> 01:06:02,722
Violence begets violence.

753
01:06:02,886 --> 01:06:05,639
It's a hellish chain
that we will break.

754
01:06:05,806 --> 01:06:09,116
I promise you that the students
will not be executed.

755
01:06:09,286 --> 01:06:10,480
SO ?

756
01:06:12,166 --> 01:06:14,157
I don't promise you anything.

757
01:06:17,486 --> 01:06:18,680
Come.

758
01:06:26,966 --> 01:06:31,357
Even with a pass,
you risk being questioned.

759
01:06:31,526 --> 01:06:34,677
It's better to go this way.
It will be safer.

760
01:06:34,846 --> 01:06:36,757
You will avoid the guardhouse.

761
01:06:39,166 --> 01:06:40,804
Have confidence.

762
01:06:57,486 --> 01:07:00,922
I can't tell you
from whom I got this information.

763
01:07:01,086 --> 01:07:03,316
But I ask you
to trust me.

764
01:07:03,526 --> 01:07:05,801
Before 2 months,
the Constitution will be promulgated.

765
01:07:06,006 --> 01:07:08,520
We have interest
to observe a truce.

766
01:07:11,326 --> 01:07:12,839
What do you say?

767
01:07:15,686 --> 01:07:17,677
Jeliabov?

768
01:07:17,846 --> 01:07:21,680
Sophie Perovsky provides no proof.
I want proof.

769
01:07:22,166 --> 01:07:23,679
I have one.

770
01:07:24,646 --> 01:07:30,835
Students arrested at Soloviev trial
will be released shortly. Otherwise,

771
01:07:31,046 --> 01:07:32,559
at our next meeting,

772
01:07:32,766 --> 01:07:34,722
I will admit that I was deceived.

773
01:07:34,886 --> 01:07:36,365
Let's give him a deadline.

774
01:07:36,566 --> 01:07:37,396
Why not ?

775
01:07:37,566 --> 01:07:40,239
No. Even assuming
let her tell the truth,

776
01:07:42,126 --> 01:07:45,596
I am against any Constitution
granted by the Tsar.

777
01:07:45,766 --> 01:07:46,994
That's not enough for me.

778
01:07:47,166 --> 01:07:49,805
Me neither.
But it's a first step.

779
01:07:50,486 --> 01:07:53,284
I'm against steps
and compromises.

780
01:07:53,446 --> 01:07:55,482
I am for terror.

781
01:07:55,686 --> 01:07:58,678
- Moreover, a Constitution,
it's a lie,

782
01:07:58,886 --> 01:08:02,162
opium to put the people to sleep.
Perfectly.

783
01:08:02,326 --> 01:08:06,524
We have to stop him from falling asleep.
Wake him up with bombs.

784
01:08:07,806 --> 01:08:10,320
And human lives,
what do you do with it?

785
01:08:11,446 --> 01:08:13,277
What do human lives matter...

786
01:08:14,526 --> 01:08:16,756
Too bad for those who are afraid.

787
01:08:18,166 --> 01:08:20,122
I was never afraid.

788
01:08:21,046 --> 01:08:25,358
If I was cheated on, I want to be
designated for the next attack.

789
01:08:25,526 --> 01:08:28,120
But I hope
that there will never be again.

790
01:08:31,246 --> 01:08:34,363
We are again in
presence of the 2 usual theses:

791
01:08:34,526 --> 01:08:37,882
immediate action
and progressive action.

792
01:08:38,046 --> 01:08:41,880
I put the proposal to the vote
by Sophie Perovsky.

793
01:08:42,046 --> 01:08:44,162
Those who are for
raise their hands.

794
01:08:56,566 --> 01:08:59,034
By majority, the committee decided

795
01:08:59,206 --> 01:09:03,802
to postpone terrorist action
until the next meeting.

796
01:09:05,446 --> 01:09:06,640
Good.

797
01:09:12,446 --> 01:09:14,004
Gentlemen,

798
01:09:14,166 --> 01:09:18,125
there have been in recent weeks
no revolutionary activity.

799
01:09:18,286 --> 01:09:20,402
And I count on this ukase

800
01:09:20,566 --> 01:09:23,205
to bring back definitively
in our country

801
01:09:23,366 --> 01:09:26,597
calm and reconciliation.

802
01:09:27,446 --> 01:09:29,676
Special courts
are abolished.

803
01:09:30,846 --> 01:09:34,122
And the third section
of the secret chancellery,

804
01:09:34,286 --> 01:09:38,165
the one you created,
Koubaroff, is deleted.

805
01:09:39,246 --> 01:09:43,478
An elected parliament will have the right
to discuss laws and the budget.

806
01:09:44,486 --> 01:09:48,115
I desire that this ukase
be made public on the day

807
01:09:48,286 --> 01:09:50,163
where Princess Dolgorouki

808
01:09:50,326 --> 01:09:52,521
will be crowned in Moscow.

809
01:09:52,686 --> 01:09:56,315
This will be the gift of joyful advent
of the new tsarina.

810
01:09:57,806 --> 01:09:59,364
Thank you, gentlemen.

811
01:10:17,326 --> 01:10:19,123
In my soul and conscience,

812
01:10:19,286 --> 01:10:23,802
I am convinced that His Majesty
will make an irreparable mistake,

813
01:10:23,966 --> 01:10:26,116
but he reigns by the will of God.

814
01:10:26,286 --> 01:10:28,846
Everyone can
make a mistake,

815
01:10:29,006 --> 01:10:31,281
and in this case,
God Himself.

816
01:10:31,486 --> 01:10:34,922
If I understand correctly,
you dare to suggest...

817
01:10:35,086 --> 01:10:37,361
I'm not suggesting anything at all.

818
01:10:37,526 --> 01:10:41,804
None of us would have the idea
to attempt the life of the emperor.

819
01:10:41,966 --> 01:10:45,515
But in the terrorist camp,
It would take just a little.

820
01:10:46,566 --> 01:10:49,842
It is up to me to watch over
to the security of the Tsar.

821
01:10:50,046 --> 01:10:52,241
But it could happen
that once,

822
01:10:52,406 --> 01:10:55,204
my agents intervene
with a little delay.

823
01:10:56,046 --> 01:10:57,525
Everyone can be wrong,

824
01:10:59,006 --> 01:11:00,837
even the Minister of Police.

825
01:11:01,046 --> 01:11:05,881
If something bad happens, prince,
Would you blame me?

826
01:11:06,086 --> 01:11:08,202
And you, Pahlen?

827
01:11:09,286 --> 01:11:11,083
And you, Paskievitch?

828
01:11:12,006 --> 01:11:15,521
The terrorists have an interest
to keep quiet,

829
01:11:15,686 --> 01:11:18,837
but how will you do
so that they break the truce?

830
01:11:20,966 --> 01:11:22,524
It's very easy.

831
01:11:25,006 --> 01:11:28,203
We still in prison
the students who demonstrated

832
01:11:28,366 --> 01:11:30,038
at the Soloviev trial.

833
01:11:31,126 --> 01:11:34,960
I discovered that they belonged
to the group ''Land and Liberty''.

834
01:11:36,006 --> 01:11:37,405
Well...

835
01:11:39,046 --> 01:11:43,085
they will find tomorrow morning
in their ball of bread a lime,

836
01:11:43,246 --> 01:11:45,077
and even an excellent file.

837
01:11:45,246 --> 01:11:46,645
Count on me.

838
01:12:34,886 --> 01:12:36,478
We will make them believe

839
01:12:36,646 --> 01:12:39,160
that their grace was rejected
by the tsar

840
01:12:39,326 --> 01:12:43,035
and they will be judged
by a special court.

841
01:12:43,206 --> 01:12:46,278
They know perfectly well
what it means.

842
01:12:47,126 --> 01:12:49,196
They will go all out.

843
01:12:51,286 --> 01:12:54,278
The sentries will have the order
to let it happen.

844
01:12:55,606 --> 01:12:58,803
And one fine day...

845
01:13:00,486 --> 01:13:02,044
Sawing.

846
01:13:18,766 --> 01:13:22,202
They are ready for tonight.
Have the guards relieved.

847
01:14:49,566 --> 01:14:51,284
You will report:

848
01:14:51,446 --> 01:14:54,165
slaughtered during
of an escape attempt.

849
01:15:02,846 --> 01:15:05,565
We deceived you,
Sophie Perovsky.

850
01:15:05,726 --> 01:15:08,240
We used you
to save time

851
01:15:08,406 --> 01:15:10,761
and to paralyze us
for a month.

852
01:15:10,926 --> 01:15:12,279
And we succeeded.

853
01:15:14,006 --> 01:15:17,794
If this continues, we will look like
to living room revolutionaries

854
01:15:17,966 --> 01:15:19,718
who talk and do nothing.

855
01:15:19,886 --> 01:15:22,719
We murder our brothers
in prisons.

856
01:15:23,366 --> 01:15:26,039
How, why,
whatever.

857
01:15:26,206 --> 01:15:28,879
The truce is broken.
We must start the fight again.

858
01:15:29,046 --> 01:15:31,958
No pity for these people.
I hate them.

859
01:15:32,126 --> 01:15:34,003
- Come on, come on, Catherine.

860
01:15:34,166 --> 01:15:36,202
You know our rules.

861
01:15:36,366 --> 01:15:40,041
We must not put any hatred
in our deliberations.

862
01:15:40,206 --> 01:15:43,994
Punish, yes. Kill, yes.

863
01:15:44,166 --> 01:15:46,885
Hate, no.
It's a waste of time.

864
01:15:47,046 --> 01:15:49,924
If any of you have a plan,
let him say it.

865
01:15:50,086 --> 01:15:51,280
Me.

866
01:15:52,966 --> 01:15:57,084
Every Sunday noon,
the tsar goes to the Saint-Michel carousel

867
01:15:57,246 --> 01:16:01,239
to witness the changing of the guard.
There are 2 routes:

868
01:16:01,406 --> 01:16:04,364
Sodovaya street
and the Catherine Canal Hotel.

869
01:16:04,526 --> 01:16:06,562
The Tsar can no longer escape us.

870
01:16:06,726 --> 01:16:09,035
My friends,
don't listen to the reasoners anymore.

871
01:16:09,206 --> 01:16:11,401
The revolution happens first
with bombs.

872
01:16:11,566 --> 01:16:12,681
I agree,

873
01:16:13,966 --> 01:16:16,878
and I ask to be designated
for this attack.

874
01:16:17,046 --> 01:16:20,118
You, Ryssakov?
Yes.

875
01:16:20,326 --> 01:16:23,079
I have a specific reason.
I know her.

876
01:16:24,246 --> 01:16:27,363
You have an uncle who lives
opposite the Sainte-Catherine canal.

877
01:16:27,566 --> 01:16:31,161
From his window,
we can watch the street and...

878
01:16:32,046 --> 01:16:36,198
throw a bomb at the exact moment
where the tsar's car will pass.

879
01:16:36,766 --> 01:16:39,838
Ryssakov's uncle
is not one of us.

880
01:16:40,006 --> 01:16:41,598
He doesn't know we exist.

881
01:16:42,366 --> 01:16:44,960
So much the better. He won't be suspicious.

882
01:16:46,166 --> 01:16:49,875
It will be enough for Ryssakov to go
visit him on Sunday,

883
01:16:50,046 --> 01:16:51,274
before noon.

884
01:16:52,206 --> 01:16:57,075
Ryssakov, is your uncle
will find it surprising

885
01:16:57,246 --> 01:17:00,522
that you invite yourself to his house
to lunch unexpectedly?

886
01:17:01,966 --> 01:17:05,356
He is miserly. It's better
that I bring provisions.

887
01:17:05,526 --> 01:17:08,040
Good. So you will also bring him

888
01:17:08,206 --> 01:17:10,766
two bottles of Crimean wine.

889
01:17:10,926 --> 01:17:13,394
What's more harmless
in appearance

890
01:17:13,566 --> 01:17:16,239
what a good bottle
Crimean wine?

891
01:17:17,846 --> 01:17:20,201
This is the one that contains the bomb.

892
01:17:24,886 --> 01:17:27,480
Good. Alright.

893
01:17:28,606 --> 01:17:32,724
May those who approve of this plan
and the date of March 13 raise your hands.

894
01:17:57,286 --> 01:18:00,722
''The ceremony will take place
in the Assumption Cathedral,

895
01:18:00,886 --> 01:18:01,955
''in Moscow.

896
01:18:02,126 --> 01:18:03,479
''The imperial family,

897
01:18:03,686 --> 01:18:07,725
''the diplomatic corps,
high dignitaries of the state,

''His Majesty will make his entrance

''escorted by General Relayev

901

''Princess Dolgorouki

''will be accompanied
by Colonel Rakunov.''

904
01:18:24,686 --> 01:18:26,278
Don't you recognize me?

905
01:18:27,046 --> 01:18:31,358
I look at you remembering
of the young girl from Smolny.

906
01:18:31,566 --> 01:18:34,876
You, in Paris, in Moscow...

907
01:18:36,846 --> 01:18:38,564
You made me happy, Katia.

908
01:18:38,766 --> 01:18:41,326
We will be happy for a long time to come.

909
01:18:41,926 --> 01:18:44,440
I have a request to make
to the empress.

910
01:18:45,286 --> 01:18:49,882
Through duties and its burdens,
that she keeps a few moments

911
01:18:50,046 --> 01:18:54,039
for Alexandre and for Katia.
Long moments, I swear.

912
01:18:54,246 --> 01:18:56,760
You are very beautiful, Katia.

913
01:18:56,926 --> 01:18:58,996
The Russian people will love you.

914
01:18:59,166 --> 01:19:01,236
He will bless our marriage,

915
01:19:01,406 --> 01:19:04,398
since the Constitution
will be promulgated on that day

916
01:19:04,606 --> 01:19:06,278
throughout the empire.

917
01:19:23,726 --> 01:19:26,240
The lines indicate the platform
Sainte-Catherine

918
01:19:26,406 --> 01:19:27,964
and Rue des Ingénieurs.

919
01:19:28,126 --> 01:19:30,799
And the cross?
The student's place.

920
01:19:30,966 --> 01:19:32,877
The circle is the Tsar's car.

921
01:19:33,086 --> 01:19:36,283
The bomb will be launched
from a 3rd floor window.

922
01:19:38,006 --> 01:19:40,201
Why are you warning me so late?

923
01:19:40,366 --> 01:19:43,836
They planned everything
at the last minute. They are suspicious.

924
01:19:44,006 --> 01:19:45,724
I see.

925
01:19:48,086 --> 01:19:50,680
I would like to point out
to Your Excellency

926
01:19:50,846 --> 01:19:52,996
that there are 9 of us
to be aware.

927
01:19:53,206 --> 01:19:57,597
By betraying them, I feel
that I will lose my self-esteem.

928
01:19:59,166 --> 01:20:02,363
And how much do you estimate
your own esteem?

929
01:20:02,526 --> 01:20:06,758
I rely on your generosity.
The student's name.

930
01:20:08,646 --> 01:20:09,965
There are limits.

931
01:20:10,126 --> 01:20:13,482
I don't have time to chat.
The student's name.

932
01:20:15,086 --> 01:20:16,280
Ryssakov.

933
01:20:17,086 --> 01:20:19,122
''Ryssakov''...

934
01:20:19,286 --> 01:20:21,561
There you go. You stay here.

935
01:20:21,726 --> 01:20:23,956
You will wait until nightfall to go out.

936
01:20:37,326 --> 01:20:39,123
Bell.

937
01:20:39,286 --> 01:20:42,915
Who is there?
It's me, Stéphane.

938
01:20:51,126 --> 01:20:53,401
Hello, uncle.
Good morning.

939
01:20:55,326 --> 01:20:57,476
What brings you on a Sunday?

940
01:20:57,646 --> 01:21:00,877
It's been 6 months since I last saw you.
Nothing serious?

941
01:21:01,046 --> 01:21:02,161
No, no.

942
01:21:02,326 --> 01:21:05,477
I was passing by
and I came up to see you.

943
01:21:05,646 --> 01:21:08,365
Come on, you're lying.
An old man like me,

944
01:21:08,526 --> 01:21:10,960
on a Sunday, when the weather is so nice?

945
01:21:11,126 --> 01:21:13,162
Doesn't that hide something else?

946
01:21:13,326 --> 01:21:16,159
No. I assure you no.
I missed you.

947
01:21:16,326 --> 01:21:19,204
Here, I brought you
some provisions

948
01:21:19,366 --> 01:21:22,563
and then a good bottle
of Crimean wine.

949
01:21:22,726 --> 01:21:26,844
And what is that?
Surprise for dessert.

950
01:21:27,006 --> 01:21:28,041
And then, here.

951
01:21:28,206 --> 01:21:31,118
Oh, you make me very happy,
my little Stéphane.

952
01:21:31,286 --> 01:21:34,801
Life is not funny,
when we get old.

953
01:21:34,966 --> 01:21:39,118
We no longer have the means
to afford all these good things.

954
01:21:39,286 --> 01:21:41,163
You're good, exactly.

955
01:21:41,326 --> 01:21:43,556
Me too,
I have a surprise for you.

956
01:21:43,726 --> 01:21:45,205
Come see.

957
01:21:47,486 --> 01:21:50,558
The Tsar will pass
right below my window.

958
01:21:50,726 --> 01:21:52,842
It's a show
not to be missed.

959
01:21:53,006 --> 01:21:56,794
We will be in the front row.
Come and drink to the health of the Tsar.

960
01:21:59,486 --> 01:22:01,522
Wait, a corkscrew.

961
01:22:17,126 --> 01:22:20,038
His Majesty will descend
the grand staircase of the palace

962
01:22:20,206 --> 01:22:23,915
and will go to the hall.
A first blessing will be given to him.

963
01:22:25,606 --> 01:22:27,483
I like your smile.

964
01:22:28,446 --> 01:22:30,198
Let's close our eyes,

965
01:22:30,366 --> 01:22:32,721
and we will then not be
more than the two of us.

966
01:22:32,886 --> 01:22:34,524
We will forget the others.

967
01:22:34,686 --> 01:22:36,722
Alas, the others
don't forget us.

968
01:22:36,886 --> 01:22:39,195
Everything is ready, Majesty.
I'm coming.

969
01:22:40,646 --> 01:22:43,956
I promised to attend
at the changing of the guard

970
01:22:44,126 --> 01:22:45,320
at the Michel riding school.

971
01:22:45,486 --> 01:22:47,681
Afterwards, we will go wherever you want.

972
01:22:49,166 --> 01:22:51,521
What if you don't go?
For what ?

973
01:22:51,686 --> 01:22:55,884
What if we left right away?
I can't.

974
01:22:56,046 --> 01:22:58,480
I promise to come back
in two hours.

975
01:23:00,526 --> 01:23:03,120
I have a presentiment,

976
01:23:03,286 --> 01:23:04,514
something...

977
01:23:04,726 --> 01:23:06,159
inexplicable.

978
01:23:06,326 --> 01:23:07,964
There is no danger.

979
01:23:08,126 --> 01:23:11,402
Remember the pact.

980
01:23:11,566 --> 01:23:12,760
Bye.

981
01:23:14,326 --> 01:23:15,600
I love you.

982
01:23:21,206 --> 01:23:22,798
I love you.

983
01:23:27,566 --> 01:23:30,842
If Your Imperial Highness
would like to follow me.

984
01:23:48,326 --> 01:23:50,237
His Excellency General Koubaroff.

985
01:23:51,166 --> 01:23:52,281
Let him come in.

986
01:23:56,766 --> 01:23:59,883
Ah, Majesty,
I was afraid of arriving too late.

987
01:24:00,566 --> 01:24:04,684
When I was leaving, they brought me
these printing proofs.

988
01:24:04,846 --> 01:24:07,565
I couldn't resist
looking forward to seeing them.

989
01:24:07,726 --> 01:24:10,559
The Constitution?
Yes.

990
01:24:10,726 --> 01:24:14,765
Wars, let them be lost
or we win them,

991
01:24:14,926 --> 01:24:18,157
will always bring misfortune to the people.
But with that,

992
01:24:18,366 --> 01:24:21,802
I'm sure I would have done
something for him.

993
01:24:22,006 --> 01:24:24,918
My time on Earth
will not have been useless.

994
01:24:25,086 --> 01:24:28,283
- We all admire
your generosity,

995
01:24:28,446 --> 01:24:30,835
but it endangers
the basics of the diet.

996
01:24:31,006 --> 01:24:34,601
You speak on behalf of those
who, under the cover of principles,

997
01:24:34,766 --> 01:24:36,518
defend their interests.

998
01:24:36,686 --> 01:24:38,517
Your Majesty sees very clearly.

999
01:24:38,686 --> 01:24:42,520
As long as it comes to principles,
one Constitution is as good as another.

1000
01:24:42,686 --> 01:24:47,202
This will ruin immense interests,
hence the danger of haste.

1001
01:24:47,366 --> 01:24:48,799
What “danger”?

1002
01:24:48,966 --> 01:24:52,515
Your marriage, Majesty,
would rejoice the whole empire,

1003
01:24:52,686 --> 01:24:55,280
if it were not necessary unfortunately
that this reform...

1004
01:24:55,446 --> 01:24:58,165
It is linked to my marriage.

1005
01:24:58,326 --> 01:25:00,396
I am a happy man,

1006
01:25:00,566 --> 01:25:03,126
and my happiness
forbids me from being selfish.

1007
01:25:03,326 --> 01:25:06,363
I will not give in.
Hence the danger.

1008
01:25:06,566 --> 01:25:10,036
You saved me from terrorists
who were to be feared.

1009
01:25:10,246 --> 01:25:13,363
You will keep me well
against the people of the Court.

1010
01:25:13,566 --> 01:25:16,399
Am I not right
to trust you?

1011
01:25:16,606 --> 01:25:20,963
May your Majesty grant me
to answer such a question.

1012
01:25:21,126 --> 01:25:22,525
The hour passes,

1013
01:25:22,726 --> 01:25:25,763
and Your Majesty is expected.
Oh yes.

1014
01:25:28,206 --> 01:25:29,275
I forgot.

1015
01:25:30,326 --> 01:25:32,965
You had something urgent
to tell me.

1016
01:25:35,446 --> 01:25:37,277
She can wait until tomorrow.

1017
01:25:38,206 --> 01:25:41,243
Alright. So, see you tomorrow.

1018
01:26:10,526 --> 01:26:12,244
Ah, it's empty.

1019
01:26:12,406 --> 01:26:15,318
Say, if we broke
mouth to the second

1020
01:26:15,486 --> 01:26:18,159
to see if she is
as good as the other?

1021
01:26:18,326 --> 01:26:19,281
Let me open.

1022
01:26:19,446 --> 01:26:20,640
The hour strikes.

1023
01:26:20,806 --> 01:26:22,125
Ah, noon.

1024
01:26:22,286 --> 01:26:25,562
The procession will not take long.
You're right. Come on.

1025
01:27:13,966 --> 01:27:14,955
The door opens.

1026
01:27:23,686 --> 01:27:26,837
Neighborhood safety.
I'm monitoring the building.

1027
01:27:27,006 --> 01:27:29,281
You have time
to lose, the rest of you.

1028
01:27:29,446 --> 01:27:32,358
I'm too old
to be a terrorist.

1029
01:27:32,526 --> 01:27:34,835
Who are you ?
Do you live here?

1030
01:27:35,006 --> 01:27:38,282
No. He's my nephew,
a completely harmless boy.

1031
01:27:38,446 --> 01:27:40,164
I fully answer for that.

1032
01:27:40,326 --> 01:27:43,443
I'm just passing by,
time to watch the window

1033
01:27:43,606 --> 01:27:45,198
during His Majesty's visit.

1034
01:27:45,406 --> 01:27:46,555
Hubbub.

1035
01:27:49,686 --> 01:27:51,995
Trotting horses.

1036
01:28:30,766 --> 01:28:32,324
Blast.

1037
01:28:32,526 --> 01:28:35,404
Screams of panic.

1038
01:28:38,006 --> 01:28:39,758
Hubbub.

1039
01:28:46,846 --> 01:28:49,440
Screams of panic.

1040
01:30:35,486 --> 01:30:37,124
Alexander!

1041
01:30:37,286 --> 01:30:41,438
It's me, Katia.
I am here, very close to you.

1042
01:30:41,606 --> 01:30:42,925
Do you hear me?

1043
01:30:43,126 --> 01:30:44,957
Alexander...

1044
01:30:45,166 --> 01:30:48,522
I beg you, answer.
Answer me.

1045
01:30:50,006 --> 01:30:51,564
Answer.

1046
01:30:53,766 --> 01:30:55,324
Katie...

1047
01:30:56,526 --> 01:30:58,244
I love you.
