Original subtitles

It's almost worse here. Not what Amanda promised.

- What do you mean? - No Germans here.

She replied, when I asked her.

What are you smiling at? A young man, maybe?

- As if. - Mom doesn't think I'm there.

- Not without knowing it. - That's cute, isn't it?

Well, is it now?

It's been shown a few years ago, that they have taken the train, Mrs. Frigh.

There are three more stations.

See. They get off here.

- There you can see. That was right. - We do not know this until we have arrived.

Then they should not move on. It is enough too much to hope they travel home.

Allow the ladies, that I settle down?

- Yes go ahead. - Thanks.

Actually, I had decided to cycle all the way to Skagen.

But if I were to advance before evening ...

- Is that where the ladies are going? - No.

- We're going to a hotel south of. - Andersens Badehotel.

Andersens Badehotel? I do not know that.

We were excited, whether they would open this year -

- but everything should be, as usual.

- They must skip the fish. - That's the best thing.

- There are plaques on the first night. - It's the best.

A freshly caught plaice.

- They are not fresh. - They said they had just come in.

Then they have been several days Underway. The top ones are fine.

But down here ... The eyes should be clear.

They are dried in. The gills must be red. Smell.

We cannot serve them. I'll get Amanda.

- Are they from Skagen? - Yes, it's on the box, Edith.

When one is not right, could it be, the other was not.

- We're so glad you're here. - So am I.

I was in doubt when I was a guest, but the school is closed all summer.

- It was Edith's idea to ask you. - Was it real?

I was not aware of that.

Amanda? The fish we have got are not fresh.

- We got them this morning. - They're just throwing out.

It's fucking naughty. If they think, we are stupid Copenhageners ...

- Ditmar must drive me up there. - He called a little while ago.

He only arrives this afternoon. Meet.

- Shouldn't he be welcome? - No. What do we do?

- We have to serve something else. - No. They must have plaice.

- Are you coming, woman? - Yes Yes. Don't mess with me.

I will be back, before Molin calls.

- Sheep? - What is it?

The fish we were going to serve tonight. Mom, they're bad.

- I have to borrow Dad's car. - You can take your own.

- Amanda's wagon is clumsy. - It is not maneuverable around.

Don't I find out? Is the key up there?

It's in the pigeon hole.

If you make as much as one scratch, so ... Fy where it stinks.

You keep these rotten fish away from my seats, you.

Georg, even if Molin doesn't gets a penny back home from Germany -

- it should not ruin your mood.

- Why do you say that? - You think about it.

Rubbish and rubbish. Come on.

Wonderful. I understand, They've been there for years.

It's nice to come back to a place where everything is as it used to.

My sister fears it is about due to new ownership.

- That you don't know? - It's one of the guests.

- But you are not comfortable with that. - It requires experience.

- You don't just jump into it. - Amanda will be fine.

- I think so as well. - I totally agree.

Amanda knows the hotel inside and out, Olga.

Your name is Frigh? Like the tobacco factory?

- Yes. - Then I read about you.

I don't remember where, but funny. I didn't know you were so young.

- How old do you think I am? - Uha.

- Here I can go wrong. - It was yourself who started.

Yes, maybe it was. Sorry, Mrs. Frigh.

- Yes, here we are. - Already?

- Lydia, it is now. - We're still driving, Olga.

- Good holiday in Skagen. - Thank you thank you. Now I have to.

- Thank you very much sir...? - Ramsing. Johan Ramsing.

It was nice to meet you, ma'am Frigh. Maybe we'll see you another time.

Perhaps.

Amanda would be here, but she pulls the head of a fishmonger.

- Can she drive herself? - She borrows mine.

- Madsen has obtained a driving license. - You look at buildings.

I wish it was me. Now it's train travel and buses.

I appreciate my audience, but if you knew -

- what I've written by autographs. They think it is blessed to be known.

After my last movie, I am become completely hysterical.

- I came first! - So. Now you go in and unpack. Came.

They had run all the way down to the beach. Where is Hjalmar?

- He went in to himself. - I help unpack.

He has been here for 15 years. He can do that himself.

- I didn't think he was coming this year. - It wasn't the point either.

My wife got him persuaded.

All the way over here I have seen on his tragic face.

- So you don't have to, Helene. - No, but now I'm doing it right.

- What kind of books is that? - From your bedside table.

- I can't read them. - It doesn't hurt to have.

- My diary? - Yes, it's there.

Let it rest.

I've been writing every day, and I'll stay.

England may fall, every day it should be.

They couldn't stand anything in neither Norway nor France.

As the boys were playing on the ferry, would Severin would be German.

They are the strongest.

- What are you about to do? - See if the radio can find the BBC.

Hjalmar, now we're over here. Shouldn't we now be on vacation?

- The boys are glad you're in. - Sorry. I know.

I'm not a nice company.

- Your tea, Mr. Aurland. - It is me.

I thought it would be nice with something to strengthen.

It must be the taxi from the station. We'll probably do it ourselves, please.

- Should I help unpack? - No thanks. I'll do it myself.

- I haven't met you before. - No. My name is Nanna.

I probably thought it was you. Leslie Be sure you weren't here this year.

So I am.

- How is he? - Busy. He works at the factory.

So do I, but I just am the stupid sister in the office.

That's what my mother imagines.

Leslie hung her head after hearing from you.

He hoped for something else, but he got engaged just after Christmas.

- Then you must say hello and say congratulations. - I will do it.

By the way, there a letter to you this morning.

- Well, you're here this year too? - Hello, Mrs. Frigh.

I heard you got married last fall. Congratulations.

Thanks.

It was her, Leslie was dazzled.

- I can understand that. - Really? How's the room?

- That's fine, Mom. - It's Amanda's old. And Veras.

She's not coming this year. She has also been married.

Everyone obviously marries. Fortunately not you.

Surely it is not urgent. Want to go to the beach?

- Maybe when I've unpacked. - Yes.

- The pillow is at least new. - No, it didn't.

You are doing your best, but the whole thing is as it usually is.

- They've rebuilt the attic. - Amanda must have a place then.

- Sir. Dupont also has a room there. - With the girls?

No, on the other end. I don't think he's like that at all.

- What? What do you mean? - Nothing.

- It was sweet, he welcomed us. - It should have been Amanda.

- She was just going to do an errand. - It never happened to Mrs. Andersen.

Mrs. Andersen was in England, when we came. She only came the week after.

Should I help you unpack?

Why should you, though? I'm not senile.

Did Bertha say anything about Leslie? Yes, if he comes this year.

I don't think he does. He is busy in the factory.

- He must have been engaged. - Yes. So did his sister.

- Amanda back? - No. Sir. Dupont is calling.

May I just say one thing, Edith?

I think we should say Mrs. Berggren, even though we know Amanda.

So do I, but she's not here right now.

I just mention it too.

Amanda is run from the fishmonger an hour and a half ago.

- It doesn't take that long. - Should we inform the parents?

- She's probably just punctured. - In his father's carriage?

- It should make him happy. - You just forget my fish.

What should I do to the guests tonight?

- Well, did you unpack it all? - Yes. Where are the boys?

- Inside their room. - I look at them.

You've been here too long.

- I just kept Hjalmar with company. - Dear.

Now you haven't said he can sit at our table, right?

Should you run all summer and puzzle about your ex-husband?

Should I have let him sit and stare into the wall?

You know, how hard the occupation has taken him.

- It hit me hard too. - Yes. Your car is clumsy.

It is not you who is assaulted with people's smiles and looks -

- who think we know each other, because they have seen my movies.

I should have realized that, when I saw the title.

- "Sun streak and girl hearts". - You could have read the manuscript.

I never read manuscripts. I read my own role.

Uncle from America sounded forgettable.

- And everyone was happy about it. - I'm totally exhausted.

Next time the phone rings with a role, I say no.

I should never be tempted with flattery and money. Never.

I don't think you should either.

Georg, the police are here. Came. It's the wagon.

What?

I knew it. She's run in the ditch.

- She should never have borrowed it! - She's not in the ditch.

- So what, Therese? - Driving license, Mr Grosser.

- Driving outside is prohibited. - I have permission.

Yes, but your daughter has not. It follows the person, not the cart.

- Here you go. - Thank you, Mrs. Andersen.

- Could you ask for a little sugar? - It will probably work out.

You hardly dare in these times, when you have no marks.

Well, but when will she come?

- What? - Who?

- Amanda. Our daughter. - It probably won't last that long.

All the guests have come, and she wants to say hello.

It doesn't take that long either to print a fine.

Sir. wholesale, I have instructions from station manager Alfred Jensen.

He wants to talk to her. Their daughter has good speech gifts.

- She got me out here with the fish. - It was nice of you.

I hear many say: "Good, we have the Danish police -

- so it's not the Germans, we have to have a run. "

They will soon learn Amanda to know up here.

Who else could get Volmer for to run out with the fish?

- Did you get it all at the grocery store? - Yes Yes.

Damgaard had a greeting for us from his cousin.

- Cousin? Do we know her? - She's from Aalborg.

She knows Morten. Know him.

She had heard, that one of Morten's ships has gone down.

- What are you saying? - Out in the North Sea. Hit by a submarine.

One of them, lying in wait in the Norwegian fjords.

The crew is from Aalborg, and now is there commemorations next week.

Next week? Then Morten comes home from England.

That's his crew. He wants to be part of that.

You know, well, that no one can come from England now.

How many ... lost their lives?

- What are you talking about? - Nothing, Emma.

- Gert has eaten my bow. - The naughty goat.

Then we must see, whether we can find another.

Hello miss Jorgensen. Is my brother in the office? Thanks.

Hello? Have you made good progress?

Yes. Mom was greatly stimulated by a gentleman in the train.

- Who was it? - He had read about her in the newspaper.

- I should say hello to your friend. - Is Nanna there?

Otherwise it is difficult to greet from her.

Now you want to go up here anyway? Can you not do me a great favor?

I need to talk to someone in the hall. I've sent mom out to go.

Down the hall? Who? Jan Larsen?

- Yes. Get him now, Leslie. - He's not here.

Why? Is he ill?

- We had to dismiss him yesterday. - Dismiss? Why?

We have had to cut back after we can't get tobacco from Virginia.

- Why Jan? - I had no idea you were friends.

- I'm sorry. - I'm talking to mom.

- It's over there, Miss Otilia. - Yes, I can see that.

We don't have to, either to be darkened during the day.

- It's the bright nights we love. - They are lovely too.

Given how bad it is could be, however, is peaceful.

It was peaceful to overflow Denmark.

Olga thinks the Germans were coming by agreement with the Danish government.

Why was there no resistance? However, this was done in Norway.

There they have national pride.

Had it made you proud, if more Danish men had lost their lives?

Excuse me?

Sorry.

Her husband was there in the fighting in Southern Jutland.

- Did he see his comrades being killed? - Yes. He probably did.

It was terrible though. Do you hear, Olga?

- Yes. After all, I couldn't know. - No. Of course not.

No.

Georg, are you sleeping?

- I'm on holiday. Is she back? - No. It is soon strange.

- Call and hear what's happening. - She's waiting for Alfred.

He does not saddle the same day as he rides. Everything has to go at his pace.

- Finally. It must be Molin. - I thought you were vacationing.

- Is it for me? - No, to Mr Weyse.

I thought he was out here.

- Why the hell isn't he calling? - Weyse.

- Am I talking to Edward Weyse? - Yes. Who am i talking to?

Gerhard Flygelhorn. Long ago, Weyse.

- Yes, you have to say that. - How are they?

Yes Yes.

I saw you in "Troll can be tamed". She was good then, her Swede.

- I have to say that. - And then I've seen your movie.

"Broken girl hearts in headwinds". Cozy in a creepy way.

What do you mean? They have not written the manuscript.

If you're not done with art, I have a movie to talk to you about.

Sir. Flugelhorn, which you have calculated, I'm on vacation.

By the way, I have decided to hold a movie break.

For a moment, Weyse.

No. No. No. No. No.

No! I told you, that I should have a girl with a bosom.

Well, they know what kindness is!

Yes, then I'll be back again. Listen up:

Here is London ...

A man walks the dogs.

It can be heard on the 19-meter tape at two wavelengths.

... to the movie made by me starring you.

Sounds very exciting, but like I said, it will be without me.

Good luck, Flygelhorn.

Following Churchill's announcement, that England continues the fight ...

- You said no, because you're angry? - No, not because I'm angry with him.

We had a clear agreement to record "Footprints from the Sea" -

- and I didn't hear a word from him.

- He's been pretty tormented. - He can drink as he pleases.

I'm not going to record a novel about the "Army Road".

- "The Army Road"? - Something like that.

- He didn't say "vandalism"? - It's possible, Helene.

- You know that well. - No, and I don't care.

I'm not going to cook several flat comedies.

"Vandalism" is a fantastic novel, where the main character draws ...

- So you have to read it. - Shall we not go?

- What? Where? - Go down and bathe. You promised it.

Oh yeah.

"Vandalism" was one of those books, I packed down. Look at it.

- Helene, I've said no. - You can give it a try.

Dad, can't we stay a little longer?

Yes, we can't do enough, Dad?

- Yes, yes, then. Then a little longer. - Yes!

- So. Go with you. - It's my turn to be a German!

So, not too far away, boys.

Well, well. Ole Jastrau is here already from the first page?

So far so good.

- Jan Larsen? - Yes, down the hall.

- Why do you know him? - Because I go down with messages.

Mom, Jan needs that position. His father is sick.

- You have to hire him again. - I'm sorry.

- We can't even dismiss ... - It's up to you.

I'm sorry about everyone saying goodbye to. They trusted us.

We are in a special situation right now. Jan Larsen knows that too.

- Thanks for the help. - Bertha?

Had I known you were friends ... How long have you been?

Ask how far it has come. That's what you're thinking, right?

- The Germans have lost. - Where did you get this?

- I won't say that. - These are German uniforms.

There are two. It's from them down there.

Are you crazy? Put it back! You have to.

- It's German! - Shall we get home?

- Leander is not really smart. - Now?

- Where are you from? - He cut them from them down there.

So it doesn't work. You can't take their clothes.

Give it to dad. Let Dad get it. Then come here.

A little misunderstanding.

It was my boys playing. No harm done.

My boys. Isn't it called?

Well, God, you freezers. Værsartig.

Isn't the water nice? I am coming even down here and bathe every day.

It's clean and intoxicating. They've come biking out here?

I doubted, whether you could cycle down here -

- but in the solid sand it probably goes.

They must go on too.

I'll probably have a talk with the boys. Children are children after all.

You can't send them in concentration camp, right?

Well, well ...

Good trip!

- Germans? - They've run again.

- They met Mr Weyse and left. - Where did they come from?

- Germany, I guess. - No, here in the area.

There were only two strikers.

Would you be nice not to mention it? to my sister? They make her uneasy.

I'm not saying a word. Not a word.

I just talked to Amanda. I called up there.

- She's just waiting for the apartment. - Why doesn't she drive herself?

- So something happened to the cart. - She must not drive without a permit.

Should I then stroll up to Skagen and get it?

You would benefit from that. Ditmar have a driving license. He picks her up.

- Then he'll drive you up there tomorrow. - Should I do it without tomorrow?

- It's a mess, this. - What's wrong with you?

- Molin called. - How did it go?

As you hoped. I don't get a penny. In turn, they have another offer.

You have to say no to that. Stop working for them.

I can't say no to an offer, I don't know anything about.

Molin will meet with them tomorrow, and then we must hear.

- You're not dressed yet? - I'm leaving home tomorrow.

I'm going home. I have to tell Jan, that I didn't know you threw him out.

He was dismissed with others. I told you ...

That you didn't know I saw him. I do.

- He shouldn't think I'm like you. - Call it and say it.

There it is again. You think, everyone people have phone because we have.

Then write a letter. Then you can tell, that you are not personally competent.

- You're not leaving until I leave. - I don't care.

I'm not like Leslie. You know that.

You don't care about travel money, And you haven't, right?

It's been a long trip over here. I understand you're tired.

Shouldn't we talk about it tomorrow? Mrs. Madsen and I need a drink.

Do not you want to come?

Then we just see down there.

Have you heard that Mr. Weyse saw two Germans on the beach?

Mrs. Madsen says they were just down to bathe. They are thank God further.

The boys got a fright.

This is the last time they do that. Don't you need to change?

We say nothing about the Germans to Mrs. Fjeldsø or to Hjalmar.

- He ends up as a drinker. - I certainly don't think so.

No, not Hjalmar. Him in the book.

- Have you already read it? - Of course not. I've been scrolling.

The main character is determined to walk the dogs.

- Yes. It's a bit violent. - It's absolutely wonderful.

It's wonderful! It's just like that a role my career needs.

End with those weird uncles from America.

But ... I am capable to make a man -

- so self-absorbed?

- You can play everything, Edward. - Yes. Yes, that's true, yes.

- But you said no to the role. - God yes.

I'll call Flygelhorn immediately.

When we have eaten.

- Mrs. Weyse said it was exquisite. - Did she say that? Did others say something?

Mrs. Frigh asked about Mrs. Andersen made the red cabbage. I told you.

- She was just smiling. - Why?

- Because she was happy. - They were all.

Take it easy. It went really well.

- Amanda should have experienced it. - Then they're ready for coffee.

What would we do without you? Nanna is already in full swing.

Then you must add to sleep afterwards.

Goodnight Mom. Tell Dad to come.

Lovely. It's nice to say that Edward Weyse will speak to Mr Flygelhorn.

Yes.

Out for dinner? With whom? No, you don't know.

- Could you give him a message? - Say goodnight afterwards.

- Wait a minute. What? - To the boys.

- Yes Yes. - Severin is worried about the Germans.

Flugelhorn is for dinner with one or another who is getting the role.

Are you there? Lovely. Say it Mr Flygelhorn, I'll call you tomorrow.

Say it is about "vandalism". It is very important.

- Good evening. - Good evening.

- Your sister isn't coming? - She wants to relax in the room.

- So not because of the Germans? - Germans here?

- No, not here, Hjalmar. - They met them on the train, didn't they?

- Yes, but they got off long before. - No one has seen anyone up here.

They can't say that in Aalborg.

The Germans have demolished the manor Red dune and 270 properties down -

- to expand the airport.

- Is your husband coming down? - He says good night.

- Where did they grow up? - And pretty.

- After their mother. - You say that was the reason.

For us to be occupied. The Germans need the airport -

- so they can intermediate on the way to Norway.

And then it's a Danish company, that builds for them.

Wright, Thomsen and Kier.

- Shameful if you ask me. - Agree.

It should be a Danish company stick to good.

Yes?

I should just see the curtain.

- The curtain? Yes, yes. - Then I should not disturb more.

Miss, come on in for a moment.

And close the door behind you.

- I was just thinking about you. - What happened, you must apologize.

No, it's me, who owes you an apology.

I did not know, Their husband was on April 9 -

- when his comrades fell in Haderslev.

- You didn't know that. - No.

But Mr. Aurland told me that Denmark surrendered before it happened.

- Yes, the message had not arrived. - No. It is terribly pointless.

Yes. I do not hope, Their husband came up with something.

He... He wasn't one of those ...?

Anders ... only died two days later.

It hurts me terribly.

If anything, I can do so ...

The only ones who know, are the girls and Mrs. Berggren.

I do not want, that the other guests ...

Then they will constantly look at me -

- and I just want to be allowed to to look after my work.

I do not say anything.

Thanks.

- Well, this is where you save yourself. - Oh yes.

The office manager your wife dragged with up, can take the mood of anyone.

He has gone up again.

I was just about to tell him about the Germans on the beach -

- but they wouldn't. He would think they would return.

Yes, by bike.

- Am I in the right place? - Where are they going?

- Andersen's Hotel. - No, it's not here.

- Too bad. Here looks nice. - This is Andersen's Bathing Hotel.

- Johan Ramsing. - Georg Madsen.

- And I know who you are. - Now.

Where do they come from?

Skagen. There is no enduring to be.

Come in, come in and get a small glass.

Good evening, good evening.

- Sir. Ramsing? - Hello again, Mrs. Frigh.

- Well, you know each other? - From the train.

Mrs. Frigh spoke so warmly about the place, that I had to have a room.

Our daughter has the hotel, but she is not here. Get a refreshment.

- Here's my wife. - Therese Madsen.

- Helene Weyse. - I am pleased.

What to offer? Cognac? Whiskey?

Do you have whiskey yet, I'm not saying no.

- Was Skagen too boring? - Too many Germans.

A company is guarding the North Beach. It is completely blocked off.

- What about here? - We had a single couple on the beach.

Weise's boys took their clothes, while bathing.

They got so busy to get away again.

- Cheers to Weise's boys! - Yes, cheers.

Amanda?

Good evening. Sorry for being late.

- That's our daughter. - It's Mr Ramsing from the train.

I know it's late, but you should surely not have room for one more?

- We can do just fine. - How lucky can you be?

Did you not get along with Ditmar? He has to drive me up my car.

Dad, the wagon ... We just have to talk together.

There you can see. She has made a dent.

No, no, but ... the police have taken your driving license.

What? They can't say that. I got it in Copenhagen.

They didn't mean, that it applied here, and kept the cart.

Now I need the power stuff tell them something.

I have to borrow Ditmar's car and talk to Jensen.

- After four glasses? You do not. - Yes, I do, Therese.

Now listen to your wife, Madsen. Wait till tomorrow.

Stay here. Then we have another glass, right?

- Welcome. We make a room ready. - That's kind of you.

They can't just take my car. I have buildings I need to see.

- Not up here. - Shut up, Therese.

I'm just looking, about the boys sleeping.

Take it easy boy, boy. Go to your home, smoke a cigar.

Take it easy boy, boy. Let the others do the hard work for you.

Take it easy boy, boy. Spend ev'ry dime, have a good time.

Take it easy boy, boy. Let the others make the money for you.

If you don't do what I say, you will soon grow old and gray.

Just go out, be glad and gay singing ha-ha hay, hay.

Take it easy boy, boy. Go to your home, smoke a cigar.

- A big one. - Ja, ja.

Let the others do the, let the others do the

let the others do hard work for you.

I have been looking forward to this day for a whole year -

- and then I sit at a police station.

You put yourself in respect at the fishmonger.

And you got a cop out with dinner.

- You're beautiful, Amanda. - I got my dad's car confiscated.

If it wasn't you, it was him himself.

Yes?

We made some sandwiches, Mrs. Berggren, if you like.

How cute are you.

We sent Ane home and Nanna in bed.

- They should be with your children. - I've been trying to explain that.

Otilia is good at explaining to me everything possible all the time.

How nice it looks. When I was sitting and waited up in Skagen -

- I was so damn over not being able to be here.

- I can understand that. - They knew very well what had happened.

But then I thought, how lucky I am to have you two.

You've been here so long, you know the hotel and is in addition friends.

Bertha? Are you awake?

May I come in for a moment?

- Well, we live opposite each other. - Yes, obviously.

I just wanted to say thank you recommendation. Here's wonderful.

I'm glad it was the inconvenience worth cycling. After all, it's a nice ride.

Not with the mind about the sweet acquaintance of the train.

- Well, good night, Mrs. Frigh. - Good night, Mr. Ramsing.

- Good night, Weyse. - Night, night, Madsen.

Reach? Tell me, did you not say, you would come down again?

- Didn't the boys sleep? - Yes. I'll just show you something.

Look what I found under Leander's pillow.

- What is it? - A soldier's book.

Leander took it from one of the Germans. It is by name and all.

It is as personal as a passport. When they find out it's gone -

- puts the company here.

He can only get a new one. That one he may have lost anywhere.

Hokus, pokus, then it's gone. The Germans are a finished chapter.
