All language subtitles for 1945 Star in the Night Vo+srt eng Don Siegel

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
jingle all the way...

Now, ain't we a fine example
of three full grown hombres.

Look at all them pretty doodads
in that store window, she said.

Yes, plumb cleaned out that
whole store we did.

Just to show off to make an impression
on that pretty looking sales girl.

Well, partner,
here's us a toting all this stuff.

Now who do we know
to give presents to anyhow.

Oh, shoot. I've never took no heed of that
pretty girl who sold us these things.

All I know was that something inside of me
made me feel all fine

and warm like to be doing it.
To be buying presents to give to somebody.

And I knew it was the right thing to do.
And I was contented.

Hey, look!
You know what I've just seen?

- No, what?
- Dang if I can see anything.

Why it was right over that.
There it is again!

Just look at that star.

Never did see a star as big
and bright as that one.

And so low! Let's mosey over and
see what it's doing there.

And I believe him like a big fool.

Doggone thing.

Nobody can trust nobody no more.

Hey, who's that?

Evening.
That's some sign you've got there.

Yes, that's what I think.
It's some sign.

So I'm buying it second-hand from
old moving picture place.

Star Picture Palace.

All day I'm working to put it up,
but it doesn't stay light.

That's some more better.

Yes, I think it's alright now.

Yes, it's finished.

It's pretty good.

Yes, so big!

People's gonna see it from 20 miles.

Everybody's gonna come to Nick's place,
the Star Auto Court.

Spend lots of money.

It's pretty cold upstairs.

Yes, pretty cold standing out there
on the road too this time at night.

Especially when you're a hitch-hiker.

Hey, you wanna something here?

Well, I'm half froze to death
standing out there trying to get a lift.

I thought maybe I might step
inside and warm up a bit.

- Maybe you could spare a hot cup of coffee.
- It's no flop joint.

I don't have no business
for the free lunch.

I thought tonight everybody'd want
to show a little goodwill.

Goodwill?
What-a you talk, goodwill?

There's no such a thing.
You see that sign?

It cost me plenty money.
Even second-hand cash.

I can't buy 'em with goodwill.
I can't buy nothing with goodwill, see?

- Ok, mister.
- Yes.

- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, aha?

It's no "Merry Christmas" for me.

I'm maybe the only fellow in the whole
world who don't like it.

I hate the Christmas.

- What's the matter with it?
- What's the matter with it!

All year everybody is stingy,
mean, squeeze the money.

All of a sudden it's a come Christmas.

Everybody is smiling,
they've got a false face.

Not Nick, I'm not phoney.

Why has everybody gotta change
just because it's Christmas?

Because we can't get away from it.

Because the true meaning of Christmas
is peace, brotherhood and love.

Seems to me that's the remedy
for all the world's troubles.

- It does, how well. I'm gonna...
- Nick!

I've asked you all afternoon, ever since
that shindig started in the next cabin to mine,

to tell those people to keep quiet.
Singing and all!

I'm getting up at 5 in the morning
and I've got to get some sleep.

You understand?

My dear woman, excuse me,
but I don't hear no singing.

Of course, you don't.
They're just getting their second wind.

And you don't have all their junk tossed out of
the window right in front of your cabin either.

So here's a sample of it and see
how you like it!

That's what I'm talking about. The peace,
the brotherhood, the love is a lot of baloney.

Rosa, Rosa!

Rosa, see what... that woman has done.
All the time she's making trouble for me!

Nicky, please, take it easy.
It's no good for you, excitement.

People is people, Nicky.

What's this?

Nothing, it's just some shirts
belong to Mr. Dilson.

- What's your matter? Something's wrong?
- What do you think?

Look, every one of these shirts
costs me 5 bucks new.

5 dollars and this is the first time
they've been in the laundry!

- Is that the way to get them back?
- So what's the matter with 'em?

I suppose you can't see what's
the matter with them.

Is that the way to iron the collar
of a good shirt like that?

I suppose you can give me an argument about
this one. Plain deliberately ripped right here.

An expensive, practically brand new shirt.
First time in the laundry!

So what I'm supposed to do about it?
It's not my laundry.

It's Agency, here. They pick them up
and they bring them back.

- I've got nothing to do about it!
- Everything's gonna be nice and fixed up.

We'll send them back
and do them over, yes?

You better tell them
those are expensive shirts.

I want an adjustment
for the one that's ripped.

Maybe if you did business with a better laundry,
you might not get as much commission,

but you'd have more satisfied costumers.

Well, Mr. Merry Christmas,
I guess that was some more

of the brotherhood,
peace and love business.

Yes?

I'd like a cabin for my wife and myself.
You got one not too close to the road?

It's pretty full up tonight.
I've only got one cabin left.

OK.

- Sign up here, please.
- Better make sure about the hot water, dear.

Remember how you couldn't shave
at that place we stopped at.

Yes, how about that?
Plenty hot water?

All the time, don't worry.
I don't cheat nobody.

- And the cabin is nice and warm.
- That's another thing.

This places are never warm.
We want some extra blankets.

No, lady. Cabins are nice
and warm here. Guaranteed!

Each bed got a fine blanket.
There's never no complaints about that.

Well, just give us a couple
of extra blankets.

I'm telling you the cabin is
nice and comfortable.

Look, Missus, if everybody was like you
I'd need a million of blankets.

That's why is an absolutely fine blanket
in each cabin, nobody needs the extra one.

I've got a fine idea for you.

My own blankets,
they've just came back from the laundry.

There. Come please,
I'll take good care of you.

You see, you have to insist on what
you want in a place like this.

That's right, my dear.

That's the peace, the brotherhood, the love.

Shame on you for being such a fool.

You're wrong, Nick.
You only believe what you see.

But what does that prove?

Nobody sees the stars in the daytime,
but that's no sign they aren't there.

Everybody's been rubbing you
the wrong way, that's all.

Say I've been running up against all kinds,
bad ones and good ones.

And the good ones make a man
forget all the others.

That's a nice talk,
but it doesn't prove nothing.

Me, I know what I tell you.

Everyday I must see all kinds
of people: selfish, mean.

Sure, I must see people who smile
and behave nice.

You know why?
It's to take something out of you.

They've only been good
for their own benefit, believe me!

You're trying to tell me the people
don't have any fine feelings?

Nick, you know better than that.

Just think how empty the world would be
if there were no women like Rosa in it.

No good in people.

Why the goodness that people have in them
will still be warming the heart of the world

thousand years from now, Nick.
10.000 years from now.

And on this night
people have songs in their hearts.

And renew that patience and courage
for what may come.

That's the real meaning of Christmas.

They're singing again.

Nice, no?

That Miss Roberts,
she's not gonna like it, but I like.

- Can we come in, please?
- Yes, come.

It's a boy and a girl.

She looks sick.

Maybe you would like a little
drink of water.

It'll make you feel better, yes?

I'm Jose Santos.
Maria, she's my wife.

From far away, we saw your star.

I didn't think we could make it.

I was sure the car was going to break down
and we'd freeze to death in the desert.

Everything's going to be alright now.

We'll get a cabin, you can rest.

- It's no room, all full up.
- But I have some money, if that's what...

But Nicky, this is the only place
for so many miles.

- It's only a desert, where they can go?
- What I can do?

It's my fault maybe
it's no more cabins left?

They want to come in and sit by the fire,
rest and get warm, it's OK with me.

She needs more than rest, Nicky,
she needs a little sleep too.

OK, so she needs a little sleep.

What am I supposed to do,
to kick somebody out?

- Don't you understand it's no more place?
- There's a place, Nicky.

There's a place, Nicky.
Where, upstairs, under the ceiling?

No, why don't we let them use
the little shed?

It's not very fancy, just a little barn.

- Any place, any place.
- Fine, there you can sleep.

It'a a nice little place, with lots of hay
and it smells so good.

- So, gotta put them under the shed?
- Sure, I'll fix them up fine.

Come.
I'll show you.

- Got anything decent to eat?
- Sure is decent.

Well, what you got?
I'm hungry.

Everybody thinks my Nicky is a tough guy.

Life has made him like that.

You know,
long time ago,

I was in town and a horse fell down
and hurt his leg.

And I see a man cry
because he's so sorry for the horse.

And I ask, what's that man's name?
And they say, Nick Catapoli.

So, I go home and I write
on a piece of paper, Rosa Catapoli.

And I like it, so I marry him.

It's not so good as the cabin,
maybe,

but I'll fix you up nice
and comfortable.

Everything's gonna be fine.

Sure, it's gonna be nice and soft.

You go and tell Nicky I say to warm up
a little milk and find some blankets.

I'm coming right away.

Not bad, eh?

Little wine, it'd seem like
a regular Christmas dinner, wouldn't it.

- Something?
- Yes, your wife say to find some blankets...

Blankets? So where I'm gonna find blankets?
It's no more blankets.

Maybe I'm supposed to have
a department store here.

- Nicky! Nicky!
- What's the matter, Rosa?

You, missus, please.

No, really?
Oh, the poor kid!

What's going on here anyways?

- What are we going to do? Is there a doctor?
- No, no doctor. You help me, yes?

Yes, anything I can do
you'll have to tell me.

Nick, lots of pails.
Fill them up with water.

You, please, make a big fire
in the stove, right away.

Lots of clean towels.
You'll find them in there.

- Maria, it's Maria...
- She's gonna be alright.

You stay right here.

Nicky, a cup of hot coffee for him.

Please, you may talk with him
and keep him here, see?

What?
Well, well!

You sit right here, my boy,
and take it easy.

Everything's gonna be alright.

- I'll help you.
- Fine thing!

Tell everybody everything and me nothing.
I'm just nobody around this place.

Oh, Nicky!
Nicky.

OK, come, we go.

They're singing again.

Are you or are you not going to tell them
to stop and let me get some sleep?

Say, what's all this?

Oh, is that so?
Then can't I do something?

But Miss Roberts, you gotta get up at 5 o'clock.
Don't you gotta get some sleep?

Nonsense! Wouldn't I be a great one to
go to sleep when I could be helping out?

Let's go.

Dear, run over to our cabin
and get those extra blankets, will you?

- We'll just do without.
- Alright, dear. I'll be right back, son.

I'll get you a cup of coffee.

Thanks, Nick.

- Clean sheets?
- In there.

- Hey, any tobacco?
- What kind you want?

Hot water, quick!

Excuse me, please.
Here are the blankets, dear.

What's the matter with everybody?
Hopping around like a...

No fooling!

You better take some cigars
and give me a couple.

There's two for a quarter.

How do you like that?
I'm buying cigars instead of him.

Congratulations.

- Here, you have one on me.
- Thank you.

Gotta have more stuff for bandages.

There's no more clean sheet left.

Give me those things up there, will you?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But Mr. Dilson!

So what? Skip it.
These make the best bandages in the world.

See?

Here.

Well, why not?

Look at all you're doing.

You know something?

I guess I had you figured all wrong.

You're not such a bad guy after all.

It's nothing.
I don't do too much.

Howdy, folks!

That's some star you've got out there,
partner. Lights up half the county.

Yes, we was riding along out on the desert
when we see that there star.

- Probably did for 10 miles.
- More than that even.

- Howdy, madam.
- What was that?

- Well, it sounds like a...
- Nicky.

It's a little boy.

That's great my boy!

- How do you feel as a father?
- A little bambino! It's very good, eh?

Can I go to him?
Can I see my Maria, please?

- Yes, sure. You go see them both.
- Thank you.

Wait everybody.
We gonna celebrate.

I've got a special surprise.

- Everybody's gonna have a little drink.
- Oh, vino!

I was just thinking
all this stuff we bought...

When we were in town we bought
a lot of things.

- Think maybe the baby'd like to have them?
- Sure!

Come on everybody,
we're gonna see the baby!

- Salute!
- Salute!

I've never seen a new baby.

- Have you ever seen a new baby?
- Why? Of course, sure, lots of times!

Thanks for letting me stay a while, Nick.
And for the coffee.

It's OK, forget it.

- Well, I'll be getting along now.
- But...

I'm gonna fix you something to eat.

- Thanks, but... I've got to be going.
- Wait!

You gonna be cold, better put this on.

But it's yours.

It's old, it's never fit me too good.
I'm gonna throw it away anyhow.

It's very good.

Thanks, Nick.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Nick.
