All language subtitles for Mosku.2003.Finnish-cd2

Too long for a shit

You're some shit guard.
-What happened?

Major, sir, he had freed his hands.
He took me by surprise

He's too far by now to catch.
We've blown our chance of surprise

There's just a few weaklings left
there. Are you trying to fool us?

Where are the rest of the reindeer?
-Rupip�� sold them to Murmansk

They're lost and gone. Turned into
fur coats for Russian ladies'

These are Skolt reindeer

lf there's no other law known here
we'll apply the law of the wilds

How many of the furs came
from Finnish reindeer?

Thirteen, l counted

We'll take thirteen reindeer.
-Why bother to count?

Rupip��'s robbed hundreds of heads
from us. We'll take those in return

We have no right to confiscate
all the Skolts' reindeer

This is not a looting expedition

What do we do with the prisoner?
-Should l take him for a shit?

We're not going to start killing
people for nothing. Let him go

You don't seem pleased with our
trip? -Well, nothing wrong with it

lt's just... if we return
with only a few heads-

the villagers sure will sneer at us

These Skolts are cunning.
They've hidden the reindeer well

There are reindeer close by.
Straight ahead of us

Keep your hands off your guns
or you'll bite the bullet!

So this is where you're hiding the
reindeer you stole from us Finns

Looks like my journey paid off.
Prepare for the vultures, Mitri

Mosku, look what l found here!

lt'll make a fine cap again
after we burn down the lice

Shit, it caught fire!

Can you spare us some?

lndeed we can

Ali, get the cards. Let's see
who'll die first, Mitri or Silias

Pull out two cards.
One for Mitri and one for Silias

Enough of the drinking!
Put the knife away

What kind of a man are you?
Are you a man at all?

Seems it's time for bed.
Who'll guard the prisoners?

l'll do it.
-What are you drinking, anyhow?

Have a taste

Uh, you boys have guts of steel!

Seems l owe you many thanks.
-No big deal

Good Morning.
-Good morning

Where are the prisoners?
-l beat them and let them go

What happened?
Did something hit me?

You tumbled around drunk

Where are the prisoners?
-They got away

Have some coffee

You bring back the reindeer
and l'll take my men to lvalo

No, keep it.
The army's got enough guns

Keep an eye on the borderlands
and report any thefts to me

This was a very good trip.
-So it seems

Let's go

The reindeer were
down there in the gully

We'll leave out Rupip��'s reindeer.
They'll just cause ill will

l'll take out what's due to me.
-Give me a couple as payment

lt'll give me meat for the winter

Put the reindeer in my pen,
pick out a couple for yourself

l'll do that then

More of them were stolen.
They brought just a few reindeer-

and the Skolts can't have eaten so
many yet. -Maybe Mosku kept them

l hear you went on a trip

We caught Mitri in the act,
scared him shitless

Such is a man's life

What do you have there?
Can l look at it?- Go ahead

l'll be darned.
lt'll do some fine trashing

There he goes, acting the king.
l wonder where he stole the gun

The 1920s

ls there anyone here?

You sure know how to
frighten people

Let go of me

l don't think l will

Some nerve you have to shame me.
Right on the parlor table

You could have at least
taken me to bed

You're such a savage

l've been to the city and all

Now where would that be?
-Stockholm

You're lying.
-Or maybe l'm not

What were you doing there?
-l ate some oranges

You could come and mind
the house for me

You'd have me for a maid and get
rid of me when l've made my use

No, l wouldn't. You'd have
much to keep and care for

l can't come now, but let's see
when it gets to winter

l have a son, Sulo

When l was a young maid in Ellil�
the master had his way with me

There was nothing l could do.
Men! Always up the skirt

And there's old Postilla too.
l've promised to take care of him

There's plenty of room in here

You men can carry the stuff in.
l'll go light the stove

Easy, boy

Go wait outside.
You'll just get in the way here

So you must be Sulo.
-l am. Mari is my mom

Who's your father?
-l don't know. Are you?

Maybe l am

You know what the devil said when
they were shearing a pig?

''So much screaming
for so little wool''

Wasn't that funny?

Don't ruffle me, you devil!
-He takes to his mother

Be gentle.
-What is it?

You have me with a child

Are you happy?

Yes, l am

Greetings.
You must be Mosku

l'm tailor Johansson
from Rovaniemi

How do you like my automobile?

Not bad.
Does it go fast?

Fast enough to scare a man.
Would you like to try it?

Weren't we supposed to measure
out a suit?

Of course, lets go inside

lt's a fine machine.
Helps me expand my clientele

Let's start with the pants.
Waist 90, 105 for the legs

Please spread your legs.
That's 77

ln this suit you can wine and dine
with the city gentry

Has Mosku ever been to Helsinki?
-l've been to Stockholm

But what about Helsinki?
-No, Stockholm

And what a grand city it is.
Now let's get to the jacket

He's a handsome man, that Mosku.
l almost envy you

Shoulders 54

Mari did well by snatching
Mosku for herself

She got a big house and
a father for her bastard child

They're not married.
Even though Mari is pregnant

Good Afternoon, Dean.
-Good Afternoon

God's blessings to you all.
-Good Afternoon, Dean

lt's Mari Tanhua, isn't it?

lt's been four years since
you were maid at the vicarage

l see you're blessed with a child

And this man must have
played a part in it

l'm Aittakallio, the Dean

Aleksi Hihnavaara.
They call me Mosku

Tailor Johansson. Should we
take your measurements too, sir?

l could make you a new suit.
-This one serves me fine

l haven't seen you in church

What l've heard about you
is not what l'd call Christian

Now that you are starting a family
and have a child on its way-

you should come to the church
and have your banns published

God is not kind to unwed couples
who cannot christen their child

We'll see when the time is right.
-We have talked about it

We'll drop by the church
next time we visit Sodankyl�

l'm expecting your call

Weren't we supposed to go to
the church? -All in good time

Bring us another round

No matter how deep l'd bury
the kettle they always dug it out

So when at break they told me
to put the kettle the boiling-

l put a weight on the kettle and
rowed with it to the lake

l dropped it into the lake and told
them that anyone who'll ever see-

me carry a kettle again can have
his name written on it in gold

Remember me, Mosku? From log
floating camp. -Sure l do

Could you buy me a drink? l've
been too sick to work this year

Go splutter somewhere else!

Can we go now?

Put your jacket on

And don't breathe towards the
Dean. You reek of liuor

So here's our unwed couple.
You finally came for the banns

So we have. -l took the liberty
to draft the papers in advance

Now all l need is your signatures

There you go,
write down your name

l knew one day you'd bend
to my grace, Mosku

Damn you, Mosku!
Pardon me, Dean!

Wait!

You embarrassed me in front of the
dean! Soon everyone will know

l'll be damned if l ever marry
a scoundrel like you!

Not me, not Mari!

What is this?

They're setting up a big
log floating site in Pihtijoki

We'll make this a halting-place,
to serve the passing workers

And who's going to serve them
after the baby comes?

We'll hire a maid and a farmhand,
if need be

You'll look after the house.
l'll look after the reindeer

l knew this would happen.
You treat me like a maid

How many did you brand?
-Seventy or so

That's not bad. -Yup, but the
eagle will take its share

l saw it flying over the herd
just a while ago

Where?
-Over there

So this is where Mosku's been
hiding his herd

He's got helpers too

Where did he get so many reindeer?

He must have stolen the reindeer
and put his brand on them

Right, but how do you prove it?
-l'll find the proof

Postilla, let me cut the hay!

Don't give him the scythe!
He'll hurt himself

Now l won't.
l know how to mow

We have to obey Mari,
you and l

You'll have plenty of chances
to mow once you grow up

Mosku, there's a letter
here for you

Well, l'll be darned.
That's tomorrow!

Where the hell has this letter
been lying for the past two weeks?

Selmi, can you take care
of the hay?

l have to be in Mutenia tomorrow.
Wallenius's orders

We can handle it.
Right, Sulo?

You're leaving me alone again!
-Selmi and Postilla will stay here

Damn!

People are starving while Mosku's
got stores to feed the whole county

See if you can find an empty sack

Take a look at this

There are no ears on this fur.
-No, there aren't

We found our proof

lt's biting!

lt's a whopper!

Lift them higher!

How did you find it?

There were even more of them
when l used to hunt with my father

Can it smell us?
-No. We're below the wind

Hello there.
-Hello

So, did you find any?
-No, just a couple of bulls

What a strange summer.
There aren't even any mosuitoes

The reindeer are running
all over the damned woods

But Mosku's had no trouble finding
his herd. He's even hired helpers

Aapo and l have been wondering
about the size of his herd

He wouldn't happen to have
some of yours in there too?

You don't think that devil's
been branding our reindeer?

Maybe he has

Just think of all the Skolt reindeer
he had after the raid

No one dared ask him about them.
He had Wallenius backing him

He's a strange man.
Always roaming in the woods alone

Try find out what he's up to, and
you'll find yourself growing moss

He's left lots of bodies
behind him in the wild

Are you afraid of just one man?

Wallenius is not here to help him.
We should look into his doings

We're not afraid to
take him to court-

if he's been stealing our reindeer.
But we need some proof

We have proof

Aapo and l found some furs in
his shed with the ears cut off

That damned scoundrel,
he's destroyed the evidence!

Right, but how do you prove whose
reindeer the furs came from?

Every man here is missing
reindeer!

Hell, there's got to be a law
for Mosku too!

So you had it. ls it a boy?

Don't touch him.
You'll sueeze him to death

Where's Postilla?

ln his grave. Cutting hay
was too hard on his heart

lf you had stayed, he wouldn't
have killed himself at your work!

He was such a good man

The court has considered two claims
that are related to each other

Freeholders Hammaslahti and
Hirvasoja have first accused-

Aleksi Hihnavaara of reindeer
theft-

who in turn accuses
the plaintiffs of libel

Two witnesses remember seeing
Skolt reindeer among his herd-

which all in all was growing
suspiciously fast

Farmer Kaalep Savukoski, whose
house we now hold court in-

vouches for Hihnavaara's
resepectability and states that-

Hihnavaara is not a thief but
a horror of all reindeer thieves-

who has secured the continuation
of reindeer farming in the region

Get out, you scamp!

Constable, throw everyone out
and close the door!

Get out of here!

The court recognizes Hihnavaara's
merits in battling reindeer theft

But it finds no grounds for the
'law of the wild' he has applied

The claims against him may
very well be grounded

lt is possible that Hihnavaara who
is known for his arbitrary conduct-

has put freely moving reindeer
under his own brand

This has however long been
common practice in Lapland

While speculations of this nature
may be validly presented at an inn-

they do not suffice as evidence
in this court of law

The court rejects the claim against
Hihnavaara as lacking grounds

And orders Hammaslahti and
Hirvasoja by the authority of law-

to pay 1000 marks in fine for
libel-

as well as 750 marks to Hihnavaara
in compensation for legal expenses

The case is closed!

What the hell kind of a law is
this? You're saying we're guilty?

He's the thief. Getting rich on
other people's reindeer

And we're supposed to pay him?
Hell, no!

So this is what it's like.
Justice of the dominant class

All pulling together to oppress
the poor. -Calm down!

A 200-mark fine to Hammaslehti
for contempt of court!

l'm not paying it.
l'll be damned if l will!

Not even if you throw me in jail!
-Constable, throw this man out

Don't touch my friend!
We can find our own way out

Let's go!

Yet another unjust sentence.
He's a thief, that Mosku!

Even the judge thinks so
but there wasn't enough evidence

Don't come snooping around Mosku!

And stay away from my reindeer!

Next time you won't be able to
pay your way out!

You bite like a rabid dog!

l hear they kill dogs like that
by shooting them in the head!

Mind if l ask where you are going?
-Not at all

To be housekeeper in Pihtijoki camp.
l'll straighten out these ruffians

Straighten out? Wouldn't you rather
lie limp on your backside?

Seems you fellows are limp all over.
-Come and feel how limp

l don't think so.
So what about the game?

Excuse me, mam, could you spare
some flour and potatoes?

My husband is ill
and the children are starving

Mom, Veikko is crying.
What should l do?

Go to him, l'll be right there.
l'm too busy to help right now

Ask Mosku, he's out there
in the shed

Could you spare me, Mosku,
some flour and potatoes?

My husband is ill
and the children are starving

l'll sell it to you on credit,
just take it out of those bags

What with the new separator,
and all those bills-

there's no money left.
Could you give us a loan, Mosku?

l'll be damned if l will!

You have only two cows-

and you get a separator so
tall it touches the ceiling

No way am l putting a penny
into nonsense like that

You're a hard-hearted man, Mosku

Go away, snot man!
Don't cough close to us

Go away. You'll give
us the disease of death

Damn it, this is my mansion!

l decide who stays and who goes

You wanted to see me?

Everyone despises me.
They're always driving me away

You wouldn't have a small corner
for me to rest in?

Maybe l can arrange something.
-Are you crazy?

You'd bring that cougher into
a house with a suckling!

Marjakarhu stays

l look after the guests alone,
take care of the baby

Where's the maid you promised me?

Haven't got the time to go
tracking down maids

You know them better.
Just hire someone

You brought that scoundrel here!

Calm down, Mother.
Let's speak Finnish

Uljana, bring us some tea

Nothing left. You didn't bring
us the tobacco you promised

Couldn't find tobacco anywhere

They're short of everything
in Russia

They took our reindeer,
half of the herd

Who did?
-Those new Russkie-Soviets

Took them to the collective farms
and killed the female reindeer

l had to get out of there,
leave my house and lands behind

l have no bread, no tobacco,
not even a sip of spirits

Should we make a deal?
-l've got nothing to trade

Give me a reindeer.
-That's a high price you want

l won't give a female.
You can have a bull

Here's the tobacco

Has your herd grown bigger?
-lndeed it has

So that makes two of us.
Reindeer thieves

Everyone has to pay in advance.
We don't sell on credit

Let's have some more home-brew!

Don't you have anything to do?
Go warm up the sauna

A mug costs one mark

Money first

Did you steal my purse?
-Hell, l never even touched it

Don't... don't you...!
-You've had enough to drink

Don't take that mug, woman!

Sulo!

Take Veikko back to the bedroom
and see that he doesn't get out

Go cough in your corner, you devil!
You'll give us all tuberculosis

Do as the mistress says

Mosku said l could stay. You all
hate me like l'd chosen to be sick

Mosku's the only one who cares

Give me some home-brew for
comfort. -Go to your corner

Get back to your table
or l'll throw you out

l gave Marjakarhu my word
he could stay

Damn you, devil!
You treat me like a maid

l cater to drunken men, and you
humiliate me in front the guests

What do l do if those drunkards
give me trouble?

You seem to be faring well.
Had a helper there and all

What's wrong with me? Do you
go to the woods to avoid me?

There's nothing wrong with you

So what is it? Are you stealing
people's reindeer?

Who the hell told you that?
-People talk

And you believe them.
-l don't know what to believe

Go back into your
God damned woods then!

ln you go

Weren't there any more reindeer?
-Didn't see any around

What did l tell you? They'll soon
be all bearing Mosku's brand

That's twenty-six for you.
-Didn't we agree on a hundred?

lt's our damned reindeer
he's selling

Pour me some too

Hey, come with me.
My tent's right over there

Put a bottle aside for me, Jenni.
-l'd give anything you want

Let's see after the bottle

As we agreed

l saw him waving his bills there.
-How the hell else

lf we don't do something
he'll skin us clean

You can brand an ear
any way you like

But when cutting low enough,
the brand turns into Mosku's

Show us how it's done

We're on to you, no matter
what the judge said in court

Have you been taking lessons
from Mitri, your new friend?

He doesn't need lessons.
Mosku's a worse crook than Mitri

Are you teaming up to rob us?
-No need for that

l've been buying reindeer
from Mitri

He knows more about them than
you dimwits. -Damn you!

Damn! lt went off by accident

lt may do that again
if anyone tries to leap on me

l'm not taking any more
of this shit!

Don't brand me!
-God damned hell

lt was Rupip��!

You were dancing with a murderer!
-How should l have known

There he is,
as though he came at call

He's armed.
-So are we. Are you scared?

Where the hell did that come from?
-Should we go back?

We're not chickening out

Drop your weapons

Are you badly hurt?
-Go get wood for a litter

Kuisma stays here. l'll kill
him if you try something

l don't think you're up to shooting.
l'll leave you to die, you devil

You can leave me here

Come and help!

Bring him into the bedroom

How does it feel to die?

ls that what you wish for too?

Home sweet home

Well, well. So you are Mosku?

Wallenius called me and
asked me to look after you

He said you still had some
catching to do together

He said so?
-Let's look at the wound

A bullet wound.
How did you get it?

Things happen on the job.
lt won't happen again

On the job, huh?
The wound is badly infected

l can't operate until
the infection is under control

You'll take antibiotics and stay
in the hospital for a few days

You're not going fishing for a while

Veikko went down the same path as
Marjakarhu. Tuberculosis took him

l tried praying to the Lord
but He wouldn't listen

He has abandoned us

He has cursed our house

l've sent Sulo to stay with Jenni,
and l am going there too

You killed reindeer of mine
and let my herd go

Who the hell did it?
-Don't come blaming us

We've been gathering our own
herds for separation. Ask the men

So Mosku, someone's been
killing your reindeer?

What a shame.
You want a drink?

You're in this together.
You knew l got shot

l've had enough of your plots.
Who killed the reindeer?

Start singing, vermin!

Greetings, Tovaris Mosku

You just keep refusing to die

Hold it!

Stay out of this, Selmi

The only place you're going
from here is the slaughter pen

They paid you to do this

Money talks like a Russian priest

You're a worthy opponent, Mosku

Go back into the woods
where you belong

Don't strain yourself too much.
-l can manage

The baby's already kicking

What are you doing here?

Can l rest for a while?
-Go to the bunks in the back

What is it?

Did you get into a fight?

You and Sulo go back to the farm

Maybe later

l have breads to bake

You have me with a child

Don't touch him.
You'll sueeze him to death

Don't take him with you.
He's too little

He has to come.
The forest runs in his veins
