Roberto!

You promised.

Adios, Kashkin.
Adios, Roberto.

BUNKER

Hola, Americano.

Hola. Hola.

Help yourself, Jordan.
General Golz?

What an accent!
He even knows me in the dark!

That's all we have
in Spain now... accents.

Eh, Jordan?
Yeah, I was looking for you when the lights went out.

I saw you.
How did it go with the train?

Alright.

And Kashkin?
He caught one.

He didn't want to be taken alive.

Oh, so it was like that?
Yes. Murder.

Orders are orders.
I still say it was murder. Well...

in this business, Jordan, remember
nothing. Nothing except the next job.

What's next?
A bridge. Oh, a bridge. Right.

To blow the bridge is nothing. But
to blow it at the stated hour and the time set for the attack,

that's a horse of another color, as you Americans say.
Attack?

Yes. At last we take the offensive.
Oh, it will be a beautiful attack.

On paper it looks wonderful,
and if it succeeds...

No, I will not say "if."
This time it must succeed and it will.

What I've told you, Jordan,
is known only to the general staff.

Our only chance to succeed
is by a surprise attack.

Now, here is the bridge,
over a deep gorge.

It's the only way
the enemy can bring up reinforcements.

Tanks, artillery, troops,
all must come over this bridge.

I must know absolutely it is gone. Not before
the attack, they'd rebuild it.

It must go the minute the attack
starts, no sooner, no later.

So the bridge is nothing. But suppose their soldiers are sitting on it when it's time to blow it.

You know, sentries on both ends.
What do you do then?

In my country, General, they say, "Never blow
a bridge till you come to it."- Good.

That's good, you joke. In this
business, one should joke a little.

I am so serious.
It's why I can joke.

You think you can get through the enemy lines tomorrow night?
Sure.

Good. That will give you 3 days
to prepare for the dynamiting.

Wait for the attack at dawn,
after the third night.

How will I know the exact time?
Well, use these.

Listen. First, we attack from the air.

When our planes fly over, you'll hear the explosions, that's your time.

Oh, I've... I've got a good guide for you,
an old man named Anselmo but good.

Knows the country like a fox,
and the people to help you.

Now, go
and find yourself a pretty girl.

But first get a haircut.
Is that an order, General?

Why not?
I don't like your barber.

Up the gorge to the left
is the bridge.

Sentry boxes, huh?
At each end, Roberto.

Always two sentries on guard.

Where do the sentries live?
At the roadmender's hut, across the bridge.

You can't see it from here.

The other post is on this side,
in that old sawmill.

How many men in the sawmill?
Eight, and a corporal.

The other post, how many men?
Maybe more.

We'll find out. Look!

They always spit in the gorge.

It brings luck.

I wish I could spit that far.

Roberto!

That sentry, he looks
like a man from my village.

He's very young.

He must die?
You couldn't do it, Anselmo?

I would kill the sentry, yes, considering
the necessity of the bridge.

But if I live later,
I'll try to live in such a way,

doing no harm to anyone,
that it will be forgiven.

Come on, let's get this dynamite where it'll be safe.

You wait here, Roberto.
Oh, I can make it, Anselmo.

You want to be shot at,
carrying these?

No, not even in a joke.

Go ahead.

Roberto!

He's the boss here, Roberto. Very strong man.
I can see.

Foreigner?
And a friend. Didn't the old man tell you?

I'm asking you.

I'm here for the Republic.

You know those seals, don't you?
SIM, Service of Military Intelligence.

This is the seal of the General Staff. They command for the Republic.

In these mountains, I command.
No one else.

What's that?
Dynamite.

Good. I can use dynamite.
How much you bring me?

None. What's your name?

What's that to you?
Pablo. He's Pablo.

What for?
A bridge.

What bridge?
That's my business.

In this country foreigner, it is my business.
Is that the way to talk? You want to die?

No! - Shut your mouth.
But didn't you hear what this comrade said? He comes for the Republic!

Anselmo!

Help us get this stuff up to your camp, will you? The old man's tired.

Hola! What is this that comes?

The old man and a dynamiter.

Hey, that... that stuff! Not in the cave.

What're you making?
A trap for foxes.

See? Very practical.
He catches rabbits.

If a Gypsy catches rabbits,
he says it's foxes.

If he catches a fox, he would call it an elephant. And if I catch an elephant?

You'd say it was a tank.

I'll get me a tank, old man!

Some day I'll get me a tank
and you can call it what you please.

Gypsies talk much, kill little.

I'm going for wine.
Bring a cup for me.

You have wine, huh?
And plenty of it.

We eat like generals here.
He eats like ten generals.

And what do Gypsies do in the war?
They keep on being Gypsies.

Well, that's a good job.
The best.

How do they call you?
Roberto. And you?

Rafael. Oh, wine!
There will be food soon.

Food!

Oh, you have tobacco, huh?

Yeah, I know these.

Much air and little tobacco.

Ah, we eat!

Hola!

Hola!

That's the way I comb it.

Go ahead and eat.

Hey, bread!

How are you called?

Mar�a. And you?

Roberto.

Been here long?

This long.

Three months.
They shaved my head in Valladolid.

I was on the train. They were taking me south.
The train Pablo blew at Ar�valo.

Many of the prisoners were caught
again, but they saved me.

They and Pilar.
We found her hiding in the rocks where she'd run from the rain.

You should have seen her when we brought her here!

No hair at all.
Cried all the time.

And if anyone touched her,
she'd shiver like a wet dog.

Man, but she was ugly.
God's truth, Roberto.

Though Gypsies usually lie.
She looked like a half-drowned kitten.

You blow trains?
I have.

Here?
No, in Extremadura.

In another six months, it'll grow out.

Are you his woman?
Pablo's?

You've seen Pablo!

I've seen Rafael too.
No. No, not the Gypsy.

This is a very strange woman, Roberto.
Is of no one.

But she cooks well.

Really? Of no one?

No one.

No one. Nor of you, either.

No.

No. I have no time for women.

No?

Mar�a! Mar�a!

Who's that?

Pablo's woman, Pilar.

She's something barbarous!
But brave!

A hundred times braver than Pablo.
Pablo was brave in the beginning.

Ya, he killed more people than the cholera.

Yes, at the start of the moon and he kill more people than the bubonic plague.

But, Pilar,
she is something barbarous!

The Gypsy's afraid of her.
Why not? She has a strong hatred for me.

Why?
She treats me as a time waster.

She doesn't like Gypsies.
What an injustice!

She has Gypsy blood herself.
She knows of what she speaks.

But she has a tongue.
It bites like a bull whip.

What are you saying now, you lazy unspeakable son of an unmentionable Gypsy?

Answer me, Gypsy!

I was telling this comrade
what a kind woman you are, Pilar.

Liar!
This one comes as a dynamiter. I know that.

Get out of here now and relieve Andr�s.
He's on guard at the top.

I go, Pilar. I go.
I'll see you, Roberto,

at the hour of eating.
Not even in a joke! 3 times today you've eaten.

But I can eat twice more.
Get out of here! And send me Andr�s!

Hola, Ingl�s.

How are you and how's everything with the Republic? Good.

Both good.
I'm happy.

What was that Gypsy saying about me?
He said you were much woman.

And I'd say he's right.

And what were you saying to the girl, before I came out? Nothing.

I saw how she was from seeing you.
I only joked with her. Jokes?

Listen to me, Ingl�s.
She's young, not hardened as we are.

And she's had a bad time. the worst time anyone can have. You understand?

Yes, I guess so.
I'm worried about her.

When do you leave here?
In three days. If I'm still alive.

What made you say that?
That way of speaking never brings luck.

Let me see your hand.

Well?
Nothing.

I saw nothing. What do you come for?
Blow another train?

No, a bridge.
All the better.

Now we have horses.
Let's blow all the bridges and get out!

I'm sick of this place. We are all rotting
here because there is no fighting.

Nothing to do but watch Pablo get drunk.
This life is ruining him.

Tell me, what did you see in my hand?
I saw nothing.

Yes, you did.

I'm only curious, Pilar. I don't believe in such things. In what do you believe?

In my work.
I saw that. What else?

Nothing else.

The bridge is very difficult, you said?
No. I said it was important.

But it can be very difficult?
Yes.

I'm going back to look it over again.
How many men have you got here?

Five. The Gypsy is worthless,
although his intentions are good.

Pablo, I no longer trust.

Thanks. I like your way of speaking.
I try to speak frankly.

Then tell me what you saw in my hand.
No.

I saw nothing else.

Go now to the bridge.
I look after your equipment.

Let me tell you again, Ingl�s.
I'm glad you've come.

We will understand each other.

Can they not dwell outside?

I don't want dynamite in here.
We have fire.

It's far from the fire.

Smoke?

How goes the Gypsy?

Is she going to let you eat again?
Why not?

Is there wine?
Not much left.

Well, in that case, I'll have a cup of water.

Mar�a, is there any water left?

It's too strong,
or I'd give you some.

I'd offer it to you, Pablo,
but there's not much left.

I have wine.
What drink is it?

Medicine, you wanna taste it?

What's it for?

It changes your ideas.
Yeah?

Bitter as gall! I'd rather be sick
than have the medicine.

That's the wormwood. I'm glad you don't like it because there's not much left.

What are you saying there?

I was explaining the medicine.
Mar�a!

What's that?
The bridge showing the construction.

Look how it seems.

Why, it's the bridge itself!

How do you blow a bridge?
That's what I'm figuring out.

No!

I don't go for the bridge.
Neither me nor my people.

Then we'll do it alone. Old one?
Yes.

Without this coward.
Hey, you! What did you say?

Nothing for you. I spoke to Roberto.

My orders are to blow the bridge.
And I say no!

In these mountains we hide.

My business is to take care of my people and I... I know my business. Live one place, fight somewhere else.

Fight, raid, blow trains, bridges,
but way off.

Not here where they will hunt us.
You'll clear out. Get away to the Gredos. You've got horses.

I have 5 horses and 8 people.

You and the old man
with the loud mouth make ten.

Now if this bridge is blown,
we will be hunted.

Hunted from the earth, from the air.

The explosions will fall
from the sky on my horses.

Until you had horses,
you were one of us.

Now you're rich with horses,
you want to retire.

A lie! You know
I expose the horses for the cause.

To eat well, yes.
To steal, yes.

To murder, yes.
To fight for the Republic, no!

You are an old man
who will make trouble with his mouth.

I am an old man not afraid to fight.
I'm an old man without horses.

An old man who might not live long.

I'm an old man
who will live until I die.

You will blow no bridge here!

No?
No.

No bridge.

Pilar!

What do you say?
I am for the bridge.

And for the Republic.
What's that, woman?

I am for the bridge and against you.
Nothing more.

What do you say, Primitivo?
I am also for the bridge.

Fernando?

To me the bridge means nothing.
I'm for the woman of Pablo.

Andr�s!
Yes, equally!

The same, Pilar.

Then we blow the bridge
and retreat to the Gredos afterwards.

You... you with your head of a bull
and your heart of a hawk!

You think there'll be
any "afterwards", from this bridge, huh?

I am for the Republic
and the Republic is the bridge!

Yeah, it means nothing, huh? Nothing then
to be hunted like a beast

after this thing
which brings no profit?

Nor even to die for it?

Don't try to frighten us, coward!

Coward?
Is it cowardly to know what's foolish?

Or am I a leader for nothing?
Haven't I brought you all alive through here of this war?

This foreigner comes here to do a thing
for the good of the foreigners.

For his goal you want to sacrifice us!

I'm for the good and safety of all.
Safety!

There is no such thing as safety.

Did I spend 9 years with the worst paid matadors of the world not to learn about fear and about safety?

Speak to me of anything but safety!

Look at him.
How I believed in him once.

And look what he is now.
From one year of war, you've become lazy,

a drunkard and a coward.
Woman!

You have no right to speak in that way.
Not before my people and a stranger.

Do you still believe
you command here?

Yes.

Here I command!
Here I command!

Haven't you heard them?
Here no one commands but me now.

I should shoot you
and the foreigner both.

Try it and see what happens.

Listen to me, drunkard!
You understand now who commands?

Why, I command!
No! Listen!

Take the wax from your ears.

Listen well.

I command.

Alright.

Alright. You command.

And if you want him,
he can command too.

Maybe I am lazy
and drink too much.

Maybe you think I'm a coward,
though you know better.

Maybe.

But I'm not stupid.

Now if you're a woman as well as
a commander, show us something to eat.

Mar�a!

Take the food.

You must be careful.
Pablo? If you sleep, yes.

I'll keep an eye open. What's he doing?

Only drinking. There'd be danger
if he begins to hide the sadness.

If he pretends to be friendly,
it means he's made a decision.

I heard Pilar say it.
What kind of decision?

Who knows? After what's happened,
it would mean danger for you.

I'll look after myself.
I'm thinking about the bridge.

I'm thinking about you, Roberto.

Why, Mar�a?

Well, I don't know.

Did I muss it?

All day, I wanted you to do that.

I too, Mar�a.

Where's Pablo?

Ah-ha, he's gone to the horses.
Now you have to kill him.

Why don't you kill him before he kills you.
He won't kill me.

We waited for you to kill him.
Why didn't you?

And turn Pilar against me?
Without the woman, there's no control here.

So, he takes the horses and goes.
What about your bridge then?

You don't know Pablo.

Now men,
you have tightened your garters.

You, my friend,

you know I'm not a coward.

You are no woman, no fool.

Nor any colt of a girl either

that makes a man crazy with hunger.

You don't lie, make insults,
and leave me, like my people.

Yes, eat, my friend.

Pay no attention to the woman.
You know who commands.

You and me,

we'll show them who's stupid.
Not me, not you, my friend.

Get out of sight!

Ours?
German and Italian.

Can they see the horses?
They're not looking for horses.

Man! I could see their faces!
I spit in their faces!

I spit in the milk of their mothers!

I tell you they could see the horses.
Wipe the sweat from your face.

They could see the cigarette butts.
Huh?

Hey, wait! They may be back!
Coward!

Go to your horses!

Have you seen planes like these before?
Never, Ingl�s. Get inside.

I'm going with Pilar to the camp of El Sordo.
We've got to have more horses.

You know your sentry posts.
Keep a close watch.

Anselmo, I want you to write down everything
that passes along the road.

I can't write, Roberto.
I'll show you how to write.

Look how Roberto can make pictures.

That's a truck, see?

And here's a soldier on a horse.

Look! Tank!

I will catch me
a tank like that, old man.

Whatever passes, make a mark.
The man on the horse is for cavalry.

Each mark will mean a troop
of twenty mounted men. Understand?

Each troop a mark.
In this way, I can write, yes.

That's an educated pencil.

One paper is for movement up the road and the other for movement down the road.

When you get back tonight, I'll know what they're moving up to the front.

Better get along,
and take some food with you.

Can I write too, huh?

I want you to watch the bridge and the two sentry posts. See if more soldiers are brought,

and at what intervals
the guard is changed.

What is "intervals"?

How many hours the sentries stay on and at what time changes are made. Yeah.

Without a watch?
Take mine.

What a watch!
Look at what a complication.

Such a watch should be able to read and write.
Yeah, don't fool with it.

Can you tell time?
Why not? 12 o'clock day... hunger.

6 o'clock night... drunk.
With luck.

Ten o'clock now.
You don't need to be a clown.

Do what I tell you
and keep out of sight.

Salud, Gypsy. Did you see the air machines?
See them?

We ate them for breakfast!

Is there food, Pilar? I'm hungry.

It's a long walk from La Granja.

La Granja?
Yes, Roberto. You wish tobacco?

You?
Didn't you sleep here last night?

For a while, yes. Then I thought
of my woman and children in La Granja.

Then I went to La Granja.
Wasn't that dangerous?

It's only a matter of getting past their sentries.
That's why I only go at night.

Oh, Mar�a!

See much movement along the road last night? Nothing.

A few trucks as usual. Cars.
A few guns, as usual.

No troops.
Pick up any news in town?

But nothing.

Still goes battle in the north.
That's not news.

Oh, yes... there is talk
that the Republic is preparing an attack.

The what?
That we are preparing an offensive.

Where?

Perhaps here, perhaps near Navacerrada.

Have you heard of it?
Where is that talk come from?

Where?
Surely you know how rumors fly?

The officers talks in the cafes and the waiters listen. The rumors come running.

They say this is
an offensive of some size, but... er...

it's only a rumor.

What else did you hear?

Nothing, man.

Oh yes, there is some talk that the Republicans would try to blow the bridges, but...

Are you joking?
This one doesn't joke, Ingl�s.

Bad luck he doesn't.

A man like me
is never alarmed by rumors, Pilar.

Remember anything more?
No.

Oh, they talk as usual of soldiers to be
sent to clear us out of these mountains.

There is some talk troops are
on the way. But they always talk like that.

It's not to give any importance to it.
Only rumors as usual.

Rumors! Everything as usual!

Things are bad in the north,
as usual!

That troops come
to hunt us out, as usual!

An offensive here, as usual!

Man, you are a monument
to "as usual".

But the last two, Pilar,
are only rumors.

My mother!
Let's go, Pilar.

Who'll look after my things?
The man of rumors.

Remain here Fernando and guard the explosives. Very well, Pilar.

Calm yourself. There is nothing
to worry about. Only rumors.

Wait!

Hello, Mar�a.

Hello, Roberto.

Ingl�s!

Hola, Pilar!
Hola!

Hola Joaqu�n!
Hola Mar�a! Tell Sordo I'm coming with Ingl�s!

A good boy, Ingl�s.
El Sordo saved him

when his family was killed,
and now they are like father and son.

Ingl�s, tell me,
have you known many women?

They meant nothing.
I think you lie.

Well, maybe... a little.
And for this one, for Mar�a,

you care much?
Let's get on.

What is the reason for the bridge,
Ingl�s? Is there going to be an attack?

And the airplanes this morning?
Does that mean the enemy's found out?

They're preparing a counterattack?

I only know one thing for certain.
What's that? You have to shout.

I only know one thing for certain. The bridge has got to go when the attack starts.

And to do that, we've got to have more horses and more men if we can get them.

When do we blow it?

Day after tomorrow!

Why not tonight?

Orders.

How do you get whiskey?
Make it!

No, no, no, I joke.

This is good whiskey,
we got it on a raid.

No ice. Plenty ice up there.

Too far.

Easier blow the bridge tonight.
I'd be shot for it.

Do it in daylight, and we may all be shot for it.

Not if we have horses.
Hmm? Not if we have enough horses.

We'll get out of here quickly before the soldiers come after us.

I have five horses and four men.

Five men, Sordo.
So it is. Five with the boy.

Five men and five horses.

That's ten horses for 15 people.
We've got to have five more horses.

For the retreat, yes.
No one will get out alive without the horses.

How can you get horses?
Steal 'em.

Only soldiers have horses now.
Soldiers and thieves like us. Heh! Heh!

Can you get five more tonight?
What? Tonight!

We can try.
Good.

Maybe not so good.
Not good if it snows.

Horses make tracks
and soldiers follow tracks.

It is too late for snow, Sordo.
Hmm? It's the month of May!

And the sun is shining.

Look at the young general.
Already he's stealing horses.

He's always talking, Pilar, how
he carried the girl from the train.

Let's see
you carry her down the hill, my boy.

Now you make fun of me.

Wait, Joaqu�n!
I'll carry you on my shoulders.

Look, Ingl�s!

Look at the bullfighter.
He's crying.

Don't mock, Pilar.
He was telling about his sister.

She was a prisoner as I was.
He only heard yesterday that she was dead.

I'm your sister now, Joaqu�n.

We all love you and you still have a family. We are your family. Yes.

Including the Ingl�s. Is that right, Ingl�s?
Of course.

You hear that, boy?
The Ingl�s is your brother.

Certainly, we're all brothers, Joaqu�n.
Thank you, Ingl�s.

And don't worry.
I'll get you a horse tonight.

One for Mar�a too.
What about me?

Do I have to kiss you too to get a horse? It's been years since I kissed a bullfighter.

Hold this, Ingl�s,
till I get a good kiss at him.

Hah! Look at him! He's afraid of a kiss
as he was afraid of the bulls!

You don't need to make a joke.

When I kiss, it won't be as a sister.
This trick of kissing as a sister!

Don't be so brutal, Pilar!

I love you very much,
but why do you speak so brutally?

Why do you think, girl, huh?

Rest, Pilar! You are tired.
Shut up! Nobody asked your advice!

You think I'm an old woman. Hah!

Sit down.

Many things tire me.

And one of them
is to be old and ugly.

And another is to see panic in the face of a boy when I say as a joke I might kiss him.

It's not true. You didn't see that.
What'd you know of it, you with your face and your Ingl�s?

I have an evil temper today,
and I'm jealous.

How foolish.

I'm an ugly old woman,
and I love you very much, child.

I love you too. You're not ugly.

Go on, I'm not ugly!
I was born ugly.

Do you know how an ugly woman feels?

Do you know what it is
to be ugly all your life

and to feel in here that you're beautiful?
You are beautiful.

Try to use your head
and not your heart, and listen.

I'm telling you things of much
interest. Does it interest you?

Mar�a's right.
Two of a kind!

You are a prize for any woman.
If you'd ever let go of yourself.

And this one...

this one is a gift to any man,
if she could cook a little better.

Give me a cigarette and listen.

Life is very curious.

I would have made a good man,
but I'm all woman and all ugly.

Yet many men have loved me.
Is that strange?

I don't think you're ugly.

Don't lie to me.
Or has it begun to work with you too?

Look, I am ugly.

Yet one can have a feeling here
that blinds a man while he loves you.

He thinks you are beautiful,
and one day, for no reason at all,

he sees you ugly, as you really are.
And he's not blind any more.

Then you see yourself
as ugly as he sees you.

And you lose your man
and your feeling.

Then one day the feeling,

that idiotic feeling that you are
beautiful, grows inside you again.

And another man sees you
and thinks you're beautiful.

And it's all to do over again.

Now I am past it.
But it still might come again.

Lift your head,
this silliness is over.

I was only jealous of your 19 years.
It isn't a jealously that lasts.

You won't be 19 always.

You see,
I have evil thoughts, Ingl�s.

If I were 19, I'd take you away
from this cropped head,

even with my ugly face.

No, no, no, sit there. I have a surprise
for you. Close your eyes.

You too, Ingl�s.
Now, tsk! tsk! tsk! tightly, both of you.

Pilar, wait!
Shut up, Ingl�s!

I'm bored with both of you! Ha1 Ha! Ha!
Pilar!

Let her go, Roberto. Let her go.

Don't you want to be alone with me?
Of course.

And I want to be with you, Roberto.

That's what Pilar knows. She knows everything. I'm beginning to believe it.

Will she be alright?
Oh, you don't have to worry about Pilar.

It's a wonderful day, Roberto.

What are you worrying about?
About you.

Me? Why?
Because I'm so happy?

I wish you weren't here, Mar�a.

I mean it.

I'm thinking about what's going to
happen to you after the bridge.

Can't I go with you? Mmm.

Well, El Sordo will get us horses. I know we can't escape without them but he'll get us horses. I know it.

You've got to understand, Mar�a.
I'm in this war to the finish.

I can't have
anything serious in my life.

A man doing what I'm doing
never knows what's going to happen.

Whatever happens to you
will happen to me.

Haven't you any people in the Republic?

No relatives at all?
You must have people somewhere.

My father and my mother,
I saw them killed.

My father was the mayor of our town
and a Republican.

When the Nationalists took the town, they lined up all the Republicans against the wall.

My father cried out very loud,
"Long live the Republic!"

And then they shot him.

But my mother was not a Republican.
She had no politics.

But she loved my father
and she couldn't say that.

So she just looked at my father who lay there on his face at her feet, and she said,

"Long live my husband
who was the mayor of this town."

She said it very loud,
like a shriek,

and then they shot and she fell,
and I wanted to go to her,

but we were all tied. We were tied by the wrists
in a long line of girls and women.

And I wanted to be shot too and I was going to say, "Long live the Republic

and my mother and my father."

But instead, there was no more shooting.

They herded us up to the hill
and through the streets

to the square.

My father's office
was in the city hall,

but they took us
across the street to the barber shop.

I want to tell you.
No. Don't.

Roberto...

are you angry about something?

Of course not.

I'm glad.

I won't cry any more.

Oh Roberto...

I like...

I don't know how to kiss
or I would kiss you.

Where do the noses go?

Always I've wondered
where the noses would go.

They're not in the way, are they?

I always thought they would be in the way.

Look, I can do it myself.
Mar�a.

Did I do it wrong?

Look, Pilar!

Roberto fell in the brook.

Already she makes you blind, Ingl�s?

Can't even see where you're going.

Hola, Ingl�s.
Come sit down here where it's warm.

I'll take your shoes and put them
in the smoke of the fire to dry.

Hey, don't burn them. I don't want
to stand around here barefooted.

Mar�a, fetch me some dry socks.
The lord and master.

Here's the key.
The pack is locked.

Who's on guard at the top?
Agust�n.

Put these on. Dry your feet well.

You can't dry them with your hair?

What a swine.

Hit him with a chunk of wood, Mar�a.

I'm joking because I'm happy.
You are happy?

Yes. I think everything goes well.

Keep this under your feet
until your shoes are dry.

Must you care for him as a child?
No. As a man who's cold and wet.

And a man
who has just come home to his house.

Take the coffee, worthless one.

Does it always grow dark this early?
No, Ingl�s. It's the weather.

The wind is very disorderly.
Getting colder out.

Yes, Ingl�s. It is not correct
to be so cold in the month of May.

Any movement on the road, Anselmo?
Not much, Roberto.

It's all marked on the papers.
Gypsy, what about the bridge?

Er... six hour... interval.

I stayed till they changed the watch,
at noon and at six.

It was a long watch, Ingl�s. And cold!

My... my bones brea...

What about the sawmill post?
Eight men and a corporal.

No more arrived.
What about the post across the bridge? The roadmender's hut?

I didn't get that far. I remembered
what you said. To be careful.

Only ten cars?
All written down, Roberto.

Ingl�s!

How do you like it, Pilar?

Very beautiful, the snow, huh?

Get out of my sight!

God help El Sordo.

If it snows all night, it may cover his tracks.
If, if!

How do you like it, woman, eh?

How do you like to command when it snows?
Shut up, drunkard!

I know why you went to see El Sordo.

Horses make tracks in the snow,
hey, Ingl�s? Yeah.

Now there will be no offensive.
No bridge. No. Just snow.

Yeah.

And no making love in the heather!

Watch your mouth!

No. Let me.

Mar�a!

Wipe the table clean, Mar�a!

Wipe your own spillings!

Wipe first your chin, drunkard,
and then the table!

Pay no attention to him. He's drunk.

Fix my shoes, Mar�a.

Are you really drunk?
Why not?

But not too drunk to watch your mouth!

No one on guard at the top?
In this storm? What for?

No soldiers will move
in these mountains tonight.

Pilar, bring me something hot to eat!

Wine, Ingl�s?

I thought I was Roberto.
I call you Ingl�s before the others.

Roberto?

Don Roberto!

How is Don Roberto?
Fine, Don Pablo. How's Bacchus?

Who is Bacchus?

You ought to know. He's your constant companion.

I don't know such a man.

You say funny things, Ingl�s.
Sure, I do. I'm a laugh every minute.

Pay no attention. He's drunk.
Tell us, Ingl�s,

why have you come so far
to fight for our Republic?

A man fights for what he believes in, Fernando. How about... er... in his own country.

Well, maybe you feel that I'm sticking my nose
into other people's business,

but I don't feel that way.
It's not only Spain fighting here, is it?

It's Germany and Italy on one side and Russia on the other.

And the Spanish people are right in the
middle of it all. The Nazis and fascists

are just as much against democracy as they are against the communists.

And they're using your country as a proving ground for their new war machinery.

Their tanks and dive-bombers and stuff like that. So they can get the jump on democracies and knock off England

and France and my country before
we get armed and ready to fight.

Were you always a Republican?

And your father?
Sure. He voted the Republican ticket all his life.

Did they shoot him for it?

No. No. They don't shoot you
for being a Republican in America.

Roberto was a professor.
He told me this afternoon.

Not a professor, Mar�a. An instructor.

That's the same thing.
He was a teacher in a college in America.

The professor has no beard.
He's a false professor.

Shut up!
What did you teach, Ingl�s?

Spanish.
That's how I got to know Spain.

No, no beard. He has no beard.
He's a false professor.

Stop it!
Wouldn't it be easier to teach English?

Why shouldn't he teach Spanish?
Doesn't he speak it?

Yes, but in a way it is undignified
for a foreigner to teach Spanish.

I mean nothing against you, Ingl�s.

He doesn't teach it to Spaniards!
I should hope not...

Let me finish, you mule!
He teaches Spanish to Americans.

Can't they speak Spanish?
Mule! North Americans speak English!

No beard, no beard.
Enough!

But he's got no beard. Beard...

No beard.
He does have a beard.

You should know, girl.

Pay no attention, Ingl�s. He's drunk.
I don't think he's so drunk.

Yes. Yes, I am drunk.

I doubt it.

Cowardly, yes!

You try to provoke me, Ingl�s?

No, you won't get rid of me that way.

I said cowardly, not drunk!

See? See, I don't provoke.

Signal to the woman
that you've failed.

Pilar had nothing to do with it.
You spoke to the girl as a coward.

I don't provoke.

See, woman? I teach the professor
I don't provoke.

I'll still be alive,
when you're all dead!

I'm not stupid.

I don't provoke.

I don't provoke.

To the Professor,
to the Senora commander,

and to all the illusioned ones.

That's silly.
It's a waste of good wine.

I don't provoke.

I am drunk.

The wise man gets drunk
to spend his time with fools.

Get out!

Yeah.

Yeah, I go.

I'll go to the horses.
They have more sense than men.

Tell them about the bridge, Professor,
and how to escape afterwards.

Who will lead your patriots in the retreat, huh?
Get out!

It's still falling, Ingl�s.

Let me go! I'll kill him!
Give me that rifle!

Why didn't you kill him last night?

What'd you think he'll do now?
He will toss a bomb in here. That's his style.

Give me your pistol. I'll shoot him when he comes back. You want to blow us all up? Remember what's in those sacks!

What fools we are!
Why didn't you kill him last night?

He's got to die now!

Pilar?

What do you say, Pilar?

Yes.

Whatever you will,

I'm for it now.

Then let all speak.
Andr�s, what do you say?

Yes, kill him!
Kill him.

Primitivo?
Kill him.

Agust�n?
Do you need to ask? Kill him!

Fernando?
Don't forget, Ingl�s, that he's smart and he knows the way to the Gredos.

Fool, who will lead our retreat after the bridge?
El Sordo!

He knows the way as well as that traitor. Pilar, tell him that El Sordo will lead us.

Couldn't we hold him as a prisoner?
Who would look after a prisoner?

He is right, Fernando.
It would take us all to watch him.

Why not sell him to the enemy?
Shut up, Gypsy.

That's filthy!
No worse than Pablo.

If you'd blind him,
he will be easy to handle.

Watch your tongue, Gypsy!

Didn't Pablo blind the civil guard
who was wounded?

Speak of blinding again
and you go with Pablo.

Pilar,
I haven't been allowed to finish yet.

Finish, then, finish!

I still maintain we need Pablo.

We should reason with him and point out that his conduct... Stop! An old man!

Even here one man can make
a bureaucracy with his mouth!

You've voted to kill him.
Now have done with it!

Kill him when he returns. I must wait for him to make the first move.

Why wait? Kill the man!
In cold blood? Cold! You Ingleses are all cold.

Here, give me your gun! I'm not cold. I'm burning!

Not in here. No shooting in here.

You'll see how cold my blood is
when that coward comes back!

Ugly. All of it's ugly!

Remember one thing, Ingl�s.
He wasn't always like this.

When the war broke out,
he wasn't the man you see now.

Brutal, yes,
but a leader without fear.

Had it not been for Pablo, the Nationalists
would have taken our town

the day the revolution began,
for many Nationalists lived there.

But Pablo organized the people,
and in the night

all the suspected citizens were dragged from their beds and locked up in the city hall.

Then in the dark,
he surrounded the police barracks,

cut the telephone wires
and placed dynamite under the wall.

When morning came, he called on
the civil guards to surrender,

but they wouldn't.
So he blew the wall open.

But then there was a shout
for us to stop firing

and four civil guards
walked out with their hands up.

Pablo said, "Show us how to die,
you who have always done the killing."

"What are you going to do?",
the officer asked. "Shoot you." said Pablo.

Pablo passed behind them.

I can hear the pistol even now
and see the body jerked and the head of each man fall.

One held his head still
when the pistol touched it.

One shivered in his whole body
and his head was shaking.

Only one put his hands in front of his
eyes and he was the last one.

The hat fell from his head
and Pablo said, "Look Pilar, he's polite.

He takes off his hat
for a woman like you!"

This time, a crowd was gathering
in the plaza in front of the city hall.

"Why is it done this way?",
they asked Pablo.

"To save bullets," he said,
"and to make all of you share in the killing."

I had picked up the hat that was the civil guard's and a man said,

"Pilar, it's bad taste to wear that hat. For now, we're finished with such things as civil guards."

Drunkards yelled,
as if at a bullfight,

"Let the bull out!
Pablo, let the bull out!"

And then everyone shouted,
"Here comes the first one!"

It was Don Perito Garc�a, the mayor.

And he walked between the lines
and nothing happened.

He passed two men, four men,

eight men, and nothing happened.

From the roof someone shouted,
"What's the matter, coward?"

But nothing happened.

I was watching one man
who had a dispute with the mayor

about a piece of land,
and who hated him.

And it was this man
who first raised his flail.

Don Faustino Rivera
was known as an annoyer of girls.

He wanted to be known as a bullfighter
and went much with Gypsies and the bullfighters.

But he was a coward
and was considered a joke.

But Don Faustino was inspired by the example
of Don Garc�a and he stood there

looking handsome and brave,
and he made his face scornful.

Now the lines began to shout,
"Listen Don Faustino,

there are beautiful girls over
the cliff, why don't you chase them?"

It was then I knew
that the lines had become savage,

and it was first the insult of Don Garc�a and, second, the cowardice of Don Faustino that had made them so.

Don Guillermo wasn't a bad man. He was
only in politics because of his wife.

I heard her screaming, "Guillermo,

husband, wait and I'll go with you!"

He couldn't see her without his
glasses, but he looked up and waved his hand.

And no one in the line would hit him.

Then a drunkard yelled,
"Guillermo!"

"What bothers Pilar?", they asked me.
"I'm sick,"I told them.

And they said, "Us too.
We'll take no further part in it."

But the worst was yet to come, Ingl�s,

when Pablo opened the door of the city hall
and let the mob in to kill the rest of the prisoners.

For yes, it was now a mob and no longer had any organization.

The snow has stopped, Ingl�s.

Now we'll have
good weather for the bridge.

Yes, I've come back to help you.

I cannot desert Pilar and my people.

Wait, man!

What trick is this, drunkard?
No trick, Pilar.

I've changed my mind, that's all.

You're right about the bridge
and I'm with you now.

Don't forget you'll need me for the retreat, Ingl�s. Just what I said.

You were listening!

You're afraid of being killed.
That's why you've changed. You were listening.

Do you think I like to hear it all? Who killed those men?

If I could bring them back to life, I'd do it.
Liar!

No, I mean it. I wish
I could bring them back to life,

even Don Ricardo who cursed me.
Stop it!

Yes, I would restore them all to life.
That's God's truth.

And it's also true
that I'm with you now.

I was drunk.

Now I'm not drunk
and I've changed my mind.

Either trust me or not, but there's no one who
can get you out of here to the Gredos as... as I can.

I believe you.
But take an oath.

Are you with us now and in favour of the bridge?
Yes, yes man.

And you think it can be successful inspite of the snow?
There will be no snow on the bridge.

You have confidence?

Why not?

Fools! Lunatics!

You're all crazy if you believe him!

What, Roberto?
A trooper.

What does it mean?
I don't know.

See anything?
No.

Are you sure it was a trooper?
Yes.

Where's Pablo?
In the cave.

Man, what a horse!
Never mind the horse, get in the saddle.

This horse has made tracks in here; we got to make them out again.
You have much sense, Ingl�s.

I'll ride him in the hills
until the snow's melted.

Keep your eyes open.
There's bound to be more cavalry.

Go back to the cave and get the machine gun and my binoculars.
We've got to cover the pass below.

You give him a hand. You too, Anselmo.

Hey, go back to that soldier and see if you can find more clips for this gun.

And leave his pockets alone!

Roberto! Roberto, I'm coming with you!

Go back to the cave tell Pilar to get everything packed. We may have to run for it. No.

Go back, Mar�a. There may be a fight.
I'll hold the legs of the machine gun for you. No!

Let me hold the legs of the machine gun while you fire it.
Go back!

Please let me go with you. I want to help.
Then go back!

Kiss me.

You're shameless.
Yes.

What's happened to that Gypsy?
I saw him coming down, Roberto.

Then he saw a rabbit
and went after it.

Fine time to go hunting. Primitivo,
climb up to that rock as high as you can.

If you see soldiers,
throw a stone down for a signal. Wait a minute.

If you see one soldier, raise your rifle like this.
Like this?

If more than one, pump it like this.
One for each soldier. Understand?

Yes.

Anselmo, down with August�n and hold
the legs of the gun, if I have to shoot.

Here, hold this for me.
For what? I'm liable to shoot me a Gypsy.

Look, Roberto! Now we'll have fresh meat.

See?
Does something annoy Roberto?

If you weren't a Gypsy, I'd shoot you!
But why?

Look at how fat they are! Look.

Get down!

Rifles!
Now the soldiers are hunting.

Wait here.

Is it Pablo?
El Sordo.

Come, Ingl�s, now they need us.
Where? To join in with El Sordo.

To die there?
Don't you realize they're lost?

If we show ourselves, we're done for too.
Then what happens to the bridge?

Bridge? But that's our friend El Sordo!
Listen, Augustin... I listen to that!

Are you afraid
to fight for our friends?

Roberto! Roberto!

Oh Roberto!

Oh, we could hear the firing at the cave.
I was afraid...

You shouldn't have come here.
I let her come, Ingl�s. She was half crazy.

She thought you were fighting.
Why aren't we fighting?

They want to go to El Sordo.
Have you lost your minds?

What kind of locos do we have in our camp?

Men, not women!
Then act like men!

Don't you think you'll die soon enough.
Swallow your tongue woman and choke yourself!

Silence!

What use is courage
if you have no head?

El Sordo has both.
He'll understand.

Was he coming with the horses when they found him?

He'd have found better cover on this side. Looks like he did his best to lead them away from us.

Did you hit him?
Pot full of greasebacked bat.

I can tell you
who's a pot full of grease:

That Pilar. She knows we are dying here.

What could Pilar do? Take these fat cats from the rear.
There isn't any rear.

They're all around the hill.
100, 200... maybe more now.

Bandidos, cobardes! Can you hear me?

You sons of four-legged devils!

Surrender now, you bandits,
before our planes blow you to bits!

Will they send planes?

With bombs or machine guns?
Both, my son.

I'm giving you a chance to surrender
before the planes come.

You hear what I am saying, bandidos?

Let's insult him.
Maybe he'll show his head.

Are you ready to surrender?
Who has a big pistol? Here.

The planes are coming!
Are you ready to surrender?

He can't wait for the planes.
He wants to be a hero,

to lead us back
with a rope around our necks.

Have you seen any movement since the shots? No sir.

What do you think?
I don't believe it.

Why shouldn't they do it?
They knew they had to die.

It's better than being bombed
or captured, isn't it?

I think it's a trick.
What about the planes?

They should have come a long time ago.

How many shots did you count?
Five. It's ridiculous

if they are dead! I don't want to make myself ridiculous hiding down here from dead men!

I think we should wait
for the planes, sir.

Fire, cowards, if you are alive!

Fire on a man
who has no fear of you!

Shoot, you saffron-bellied swine!

Now do you believe me?
No one's alive up there.

You! Go up and see.

Don't you hear me?
Yes, my captain. Then get up and go!

Do you hear me?
Yes, my captain. Why don't you go then?

I don't want to, my captain.
You don't want to? You don't want to?

I'm afraid, my captain.
Captain Mora! Lieutenant Berrendo!

It is possible the soldier is right.
Right to say he's afraid?

Right to say he dosen't want to obey an order?
No sir. Right that that's a trick!

Don't you hear me say that they're all dead.
You mean Julian, our comrade on the slope?

I agree, sir.
Very well, the sniper stays here.

I'll take care of him later.
You and I will go to the top.

Not me.
What? I will go if you order me. But under protest.

No, I'll go alone. The smell
of cowardice is too strong here.

Assassins! Cowards!

Shoot me! Kill me!

Can you hear me coming?
No, you can't hear me coming.

You think I'm a coward
like the others? Shoot me!

Kill me!
"Shoot me! Kill me!"

Cowards!
Look at him coming.

Scum of the earth!
What an animal! Shoot me if you are alive!

Look at him stride.
Bandidos! This one is for me.

Do you hear me?
This one we take with us. No, you do not hear me!

Come on now, keep on walking.
Cowards!

Look at the stars. He's a captain.
Stick out your chest, little captain.

I will kill you with a bullet!
Don't stop. Don't be late, it's a long trip captain.

You vermin!
A long voyage...

Fire! Cowards!
If you are alive! Come on.

Now comrade voyager, close enough.
Come on, voyager.

Can you hear me coming?

No, you can't hear me coming.

I am coming.

"Kill me! Shoot me!"

Joaqu�n!

Quick!

A little higher!

Pilar!

Pilar!

Hola, Pilar.
Hola.

Salud, Roberto.
Salud.

Salud, Pilar.

Look at him. Already at the wine!

Did you come back for us, or for the wine?
Both.

He came back for his horses.

Much riding, Ingl�s. I couldn't turn
back till the snow has melted.

Didn't you run into the cavalry?
A good horse, the new one.

I took to high ground
and came back through the hills.

Why is there no food, Pilar? Where have you been? Guarding the pass below.

The Ingl�s wouldn't leave until we were sure there was no more cavalry.

Ingl�s!

Ingl�s! I was with El Sordo.

You mean you were in the fight?
No.

On my way back here...

It was dark and I went up the hill.

Five dead at the top.
They'd taken their heads.

Joaqu�n too?

No heads...
Now let the fighting come.

No heads.
Ingl�s!

Anselmo says there is
much movement across the bridge.

I was just leaving the lookout when it started.
What started?

Oh, guns, trucks, armored cars, even tanks.
Tanks?

Everything moving up toward the front.
I marked it all down on the paper.

I waited till the second column had crossed the bridge. Anything more coming?

Yes, I could hear another column
as I came up through the pass.

You want me to go back and watch?
Not now. These trucks, were they full of soldiers?

Oh, yes, Roberto. What does it mean?

It means they know the Republic is going
to attack when the sun rises.

Yes, now they know.
They move up to meet our offensive.

Who knows the way through the lines to the side of the Republic?
I do.

I need you at the bridge. Who else?
I know it.

Have you been through before?
Yes, twice. 8 hours, nearly 9 hours.

Can you make it to Navacerrada? I can try.
I don't mean try. Can you do it?

I could do it in less time, with luck and carrying no pack. I need you here.

We came by a longer route because
we carried explosive. It was safer.

I will get there as well as another.
If anything happens, it could happen to anyone.

This dispatch is for General Golz.
Remember the name, "Golz".

Where will I find him?
Ask when you get to our lines. They'll tell you.

This seal ought to get you through our lines.
If you have any trouble, just show them what I've written.

Try to make it in six hours, seven at the most.
Remember, the attack is set for sunrise.

I would rather be with you at the bridge.
Get this information through to General Golz

and we won't have to blow any bridge.
We'll call off the bombardment at sunrise and we'll all escape to Gredos safely.

One thing is certain, the bridge has got to go
if the attack starts.

Pablo! Pablo, come back!

Pilar!

Pablo has gone!

Didn't I tell you he was a coward?
You and your confidence!

If it wasn't for you, I would have killed him last night! I told you what he was.

I tell you I have been betrayed.
Betrayed! Listen to him!

He has been betrayed! You fool!

No slanders, please!
Forget it! I'm the one to blame.

Andr�s, you better get going.
And good luck.

Should I... should I go back
and guard the horses?

Fool!
No. I'll look after them.

Who will lead the retreat now?
Shut up, Gypsy!

Andr�s will get to the general.
Get back in the cave. Pilar,

get everything ready for the bridge one hour before daylight. And get what sleep you can. You'll need it.

I'll look after the horses.
Look after my things.

Salud!

Don't shoot, comrades. Don't shoot!
Who are you?

A comrade, Andr�s Lopez,
with a dispatch for General Golz.

Why didn't you call the password, if you're a comrade! I don't know any password.

Fine, toss a bomb at him.
No, that would be a great mistake.

He's not alone, Pedro. Toss a bomb!
No. Please.

I'm alone. I'm completely by myself.
Allow me to show you my papers.

Sure you're alone?
How many times must I tell you? I'm alone!

Stand up!

Put your hands above your head!

Come on!

Listen, I'm in a big hurry. I have a dispatch
for General Golz at Navacerrada.

Where is it?
Inside my shirt. How can I show it to you with my hands up?

You're a long way from Navacerrada.
Come on. I will take you to Captain G�mez.

Spy!

I brought your robe.
I'll fix it for you.

Was this your idea or Pilar's?

It was my idea.
But Pilar told me to come.

Even if she'd told me not to come,
I would have come.

Will there be fighting tomorrow?
Are you afraid?

I'm afraid for you so much
I do not think of me.

Pilar told me that
I'm to go with you, after the bridge.

That you'll take me to the Republic.
You and Pilar will each have a horse.

You'll be safe with Pilar.
That will leave 3 horses for the others.

But I go with you, not Pilar.

I came on foot with the old man and I shall go the same way. No!

Pilar says that no one
will get out alive without a horse.

But if Andr�s gets through to your general,
there'll be no bridge, will there?

Will there, Robert?

No.

Maybe I should've sent word sooner
about the movements here to meet the attack.

How much time have we left?

A lifetime, Mar�a.

I mean until daylight.

Five, six hours.

Pilar told me
that time is not important.

Maybe Pilar is right.

Three days and three nights.
Yet they're everything.

Longer than the months in prison.
Longer than the years I've lived.

She told me something else
when I left the cave:

"We must live all our life
in the time that remains."

She said...
What?

What did she tell you?
She said we would all die tomorrow.

That you know it as well as she does but you give it no importance. She's crazy.

That's just more of a Gypsy superstition.

You don't believe it?
Of course not.

She had a reason for telling me.
She said I must tell you everything

that happened to me
when they shot my mother and my father.

You've told me.
No.

No, I didn't tell you what happened
when they herded us up the hill

across the square to the barber shop.
I don't want to hear it.

Then two men looked at me and one said,

"That's the daughter of the mayor."

And the other said, "Commence with her."
They cut the rope and they took me to the barber shop

and they put me in the chair. Held me.

I looked at my face in the mirror but all I could see was my mother and my father

at the moment of the shooting.

And my mother's words were in my head
like a scream that went on and on.

And I could fell the pain.

They were pulling at my hair
and cutting it off with a razor.

And then they... they put the braids
in my mouth and...

tied them around my neck
to make a gag.

And they ran clippers across my head.

It was... it was then I commenced to cry, because until then I'd been too frozen to feel anything.

In the mirror,
I could see the men laugh.

I couldn't look away from the horror
my face made with braids tied in my mouth.

When they took me out of the door,
I stumbled over the dead barber.

They had shot him
because he belonged to a union.

Then I saw my best friend, Concepcion Garcia,
being dragged in by two more men.

When she saw me, she screamed.
Oh, I could hear her screaming all the time

they were shoving me
across the square

and into the doorway
and up the stairs of the city hall,

to the office of my father, where they put me on the couch. Mar�a.

It was there the worst had been done.
Don't talk about it. Don't think about it anymore.

I was going to tell you
on the way back from El Sordo,

but I was glad
when you wouldn't let me.

Then I was happy,
as if it had never happened.

No, no. Tonight, Pilar said
I must tell you everything.

And now you won't love me.

Tomorrow you'll take me through the
lines and I'll never see you again.

Never. You won't want me.

No, Roberto,
we can't change things.

But it's true
I never kissed any man until you.

When things were done to me, I fought until they tied my arms. No one's touched you! No one.

You believe that?
I know that.

And you can love me?

I can love you more.

I could see your headlight from a mile coming down the road. You want to bring down a shelling?

Where is the lieutenant colonel?
He's asleep. Who is the bandit?

No bandit. He bears a dispatch for General Golz who commands the attack.

You're crazy, G�mez. I know no General Golz,
nor no attack.

Take this person and get back to your battalion. Call the lieutenant colonel.

Away!

Call him!

All you barbers are emotional.
Orderly!

Call the lieutenant colonel. Don't
forget, I'm your superior officer.

I'm not afraid of your threats. It's cynics
like you who would be eliminated...

"First" is the word you want.
Any word will do so long as men like you are liquidated.

"Liquidated" - isn't that a word foreign to Spain.
Shot, then!

That's Spanish, can you understand it?
Yes man, but don't talk so loud!

Your emotions bore me.

Hello, G�mez.
Colonel.

What brings you?

Why didn't this get here sooner?
Stupidity, my colonel.

I'm not at all sure you can get through now with all the movements on the road.

Write them a very strong safe-conduct.
You'll need something strong tonight.

We're careful before an offensive.

You know
what I've been thinking about?

What I should do
to take care of you well.

I learn from Pilar and then as I learn, I discover things for myself. And other things you can tell me.

What about me taking care of myself?
No, but you don't.

This morning, your sleeping robe should have been shaken and aired and hung somewhere in the sun.

And before the dew comes, it should have been taken in to shelter. Go on.

Your socks should be washed and dried.
And I would see that you have two pairs.

What else?

This. I would learn how to fire it.

That's easy. I'll teach you.
Then if you're wounded, you won't be captured.

I could kill you before I kill myself.

Do you have many ideas like that?

No. No, not many.
But it's a good one in this war.

Pilar gave me this one
and showed me how to use it.

I always keep it with me.
Razor blade?

She says there's no pain. It's nothing
if you press it quickly and firmly.

And they can't stop it if it's done.

Not if you cut the artery.
How long have you been carrying this around?

Ever since I was rescued.

But I'd rather have you shoot me.

Promise me if there's ever any need
that you will shoot me.

Sure. I promise.

Thank you very much.
I know it's not easy to do.

But there are other things
I can do for you.

Besides shoot me?
Yes. I can roll cigarettes for you

when you have no more of those that come in a box. Without spilling tobacco? Yes.

And if you're wounded, I'll take care of you and dress your wound and wash you, feed you.

Maybe I won't be wounded.
Then if you're sick, I'll take care of you.

I'll... I'll make soup for you and read to you.
Maybe I won't get sick.

Then I'll bring you coffee on the porch when you wake up. Maybe I don't like coffee.

But you do. This morning you had two cups.
Suppose I... suppose I get tired of coffee,

when I'm not wounded or sick, and I give up
smoking, and I have only one pair of socks, and

roll up my robe myself.
What then?

Then I'll borrow the scissors of Pilar and cut your hair. But I don't like having my hair cut.

Neither do I.
I like your hair the way it is.

So if there's nothing to do for you,
I'll sit by you and watch you.

And in the nights, we'll make love.

You are shameless.

If you don't love me,
I love you enough for both.

I was asleep.

I'm sorry I woke up.
I didn't know I was sleeping.

It was so beautiful to be there in your house.
My house? Yes.

Yes, in America. The one you told me about
where you were a little boy.

Does the stairway turn at the top,
like this?

And there is the door to your mother's
room? Yes, that's the way it was.

And your mother was there,
your grandfather too.

Your grandfather who fought the American Civil War. He's dead.

He was there, just as you described
him. I liked him very much.

And I loved your mother.

She came out of her room holding a child
who looked exactly like my Roberto.

When I asked her whose son it was,
she said, "Why, it's yours, Mar�a."

That's why I had to look at you.
Maybe you weren't dreaming.

No, I was there,
just as real as I'm here now.

Can't you wait till I take you there?
Oh, Roberto,

that, too, is like a dream,
like a wonderful dream.

Oh, my hair amuses you because it's odd.
But every day it's growing.

And it will be long
and I will not look ugly.

Perhaps you will love me very much.

All the things you've told me tonight,
it's... it's as if

you'd already taken me to Madrid
and to America.

That's just the beginning of our travels.
Wait till this war is over.

Do I please you?
Will you always take me with you?

Unless you run away from me.
No, I'll never go away from you.

I loved you when I first saw you,

I have always loved you but I never saw you before.

Now I'm your woman.
I'll always be your woman.

Always!

Can you tell me where is the headquarters
of General Golz, commanding the 35th division?

Not here.
I was told he was in this vicinity. What is here?

The comandancia.
Comandancia of what? Who are you to ask so many questions?

I am Captain G�mez of the 65th brigade
and I ask where is the headquarters of General Golz.

Listen, I can hear the wind, in the trees.

Now it will soon be light.

It's so beautiful here. Will we ever come back?

Some day, Mar�a.

And stay here again?
Some day.

Do you think Andr�s got through?

We can't tell until sunrise.

Are you afraid?

Not now.

I love you, Roberto.
Always remember.

I love you
as I love my father and mother,

as I love our unborn children,

as I love what I love most
in the world, and I love you more.

Always remember.

I'll remember.

Nothing can ever part us now, can it?

Nothing, Mar�a.

Ingl�s!

Ingl�s!

What is it, Pilar? What's wrong?

It must have been Pablo!
Pablo's gone. What do you mean?

Your exploder!
The box that explodes the dynamite.

When I stirred up the fire to make coffee for the men, I found it.

What?
It was under the ashes. I thought you were guarding my things.

I slept with them!
You slept well!

He must have done it last night
before we got back from the pass.

Maybe it will work again.

Is there no other way to explode the charges?
Yes, sure.

A bad way, but I can do it.
That swine!

What is the way, Ingl�s?
Get me your hand grenades.

Do these greandes always explode?
Yes, but not strong enough to blow a bridge.

I didn't ask that. Have they always exploded?
Always.

I've brought 3 more men from the band of Elias. Traitor.

I've come back, Pilar, and I've
brought more men for the bridge.

Did you do that?
I had a moment of weakness.

Kill him, Ingl�s!

Yes, I meant to leave.

Having seen what happened to El Sordo,
I was afraid to die.

But having done such a thing,
I was lonely.

Do you understand loneliness?
I understand cowardice!

Don't mock me, woman.
Don't you see I've come back?

I've thought of a way
to explode the dynamite.

So have I.

The only reason I don't
shoot you is because we need you.

I've brought more men
for the bridge, Ingl�s.

They don't know you command here, Pilar. They... they think I'm still the leader here. Or they wouldn't have followed me.

You are if you wish. For the fighting gifts.

I suppose when a man has something
once, always something remains.

Our men are waiting below.
Tell them we're coming.

And er... don't worry about the retreat, Ingl�s.
Now have three more horses.

And three more men!
Maybe they won't need their horses.

You have much control, Ingl�s.

I'm glad he's back.
No matter what he is, we need him.

One last thing I must tell you.
In that thing of the hand ...

What thing of the hand?
No, listen. Don't be angry.

When I looked in your hand,
it was just Gypsy humbug.

Gypsies do such tricks to make themselves important. Sure, sure. Forget it.

I don't want you to worry.
Who's worrying?

The truth is, I saw nothing but happiness. Happiness for you and the cropped head.

I know that.
And I don't need a nurse.

I care for you very much, Ingl�s.
Remember that and don't worry.

Everything will go well at the bridge.
Sure, everything's alright. Let's go.

Get your things together.

Are the orders clear now?
Yes. Take the roadmender's hut,

destroy the post and stop anything from getting through to the bridge as long as possible.

Right. But not a move unless you hear the falling of bombs.
Yeah. Clear?

You, Pilar, the same with the sawmill post. Remember, not a shot to be fired unless we hear the bombardment.

Be careful not to alarm the sentries
unless you hear the bombs.

Don't worry about the retreat, Ingl�s.
We'll have plenty of horses.

Get along, Ingl�s, before he steals
the rest of your things.

You don't understand me, woman.
We understand each other.

Nobody understands you.
Neither God, nor your mother, nor I.

Nor you, either.

Come.

Goodbye. See you soon.

Goodbye, Roberto. Take much care.
Of course.

Don't cry.

No, I don't. But come back to me.
I will.

Don't worry if you hear firing. There's bound to be much firing.

Only come back quickly.

Bye, Mar�a.

Salud, Roberto.

Get across the gorge now
and don't fire unless I do.

When the sentry is eliminated,
come to the middle of the bridge and help me.

It is all clear to me.

I will do as you order.

Listen old one, when you fire, don't think of it
as a man, but as a target.

And, remember, if anything happens to me,
you'll have to finish the job

as I showed you.
Go now.

Until soon, Roberto.
Until soon, Anselmo.

Captain G�mez, 65th brigade.
We have an urgent dispatch for General Golz.

Why didn't this get here sooner?
Stupidity, Colonel Ouval. Ignorance and stupidity and crazy suspicion.

General Golz! Urgent!
But I just spoke to him.

Position Segovia? I'll try there.

No, no, no!
Get me position �vila!

Where's General Golz?

Planes 1?

Get me Planes 1 !
Can't you call the airfield?

General Golz! Not there?

I called Segovia!

Get me Segovia again! Quick, man!
Call the airfield. Stop the bombardment!

You think I want to get shot?

Yes, Golz. Golz! General Golz?

From Jordan? Yes, read it.

What?

Too late, Ouval!

That means we're done for.
This time we fail.

Too bad.

Yes, too bad.

Rope!

Hand grenade.

Other side!

Please have him be all right
because all my heart, all of me is at the bridge.

Please bring him back to me,
and I'll do anything you say, ever.

Because there isn't any me. I'm not here anymore. I'm only with him.

Please... please take care of him for me.
Take care of him!

Forgive me, for I'm very confused...

Don't confuse but if you take care of him for me,
I'll do whatever is right.

But this not knowing,
I cannot endure it.

Pablo, I got me a ... a tank!

One.
Two. Three.

Four!

Alright. Now take the wire back
as far as it will reach

before I connect it.

Roberto!

Hurry, Roberto!

Hurry!

Blow it, Anselmo!
No, I can't! You'll be ...

Pull it, I tell you!
No, Roberto!

Mar�a! Mar�a!

Your Ingl�s is alright.

Hear me? He's alright.

Yes, thank you. Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Roberto!

The old one?
Dead.

We lost Fernando.
If I had the exploder, the old man would be alive.

What passes below? Doesn't Pablo know that the bridge is gone? Maybe he can't leave.

Then let us leave! The devil with him!
Wait! He'll be back if he's able. Where?

Machine gun.

Here comes the...

Plenty of horses now, Ingl�s!

Where's Fernando?

And the old man?

Where are the three men from the band of Elias?

What were you shooting in the gorge?

Why don't you say you shot them?
Shut up! Answer me!

I look after my own people.

And the men of Elias?
They were not our people.

I provide horses for my people!
We have horses to spare.

Yeah? How did I know
we would have three killed!

Now, shut up!
I lead the retreat.

No!
Don't be stubborn, woman.

Watch the Mar�a.
Watch yourself.

Look! There they are!

Wait for the next shot, then go hard before they can reload.
No.

Now!
No!

Roberto!

Roberto! Let me go!

Roberto!

What is it? Is it ...
It's broken. Can you ride?

Get me a strip of canvas. Tear it from one of the packs.
Yes.

Get me the machine gun.
You can make it alright to the Gredos if I hold 'em here.

No, Ingl�s. We'll carry you.

Don't argue. I can't ride. I couldn't
even sit on a horse. I'd...

I'd pass out.
Pablo knows I'm right.

I want to talk to Mar�a alone.
But when I tell you to take her, take her. She'll want to stay but take her.

Talk fast, Ingl�s.
The soldiers will soon be coming through the gorge.

Mar�a, listen, don't... don't say anything.

We won't be going
to America this time.

But always I go with you
wherever you go. Understand?

You go now, Mar�a.
No, no, I stay with you, Roberto.

No, Mar�a.
What I do now, I do alone. I couldn't do it if you were here.

No. - If you go, then I go too. Don't you see how it is?
Whichever one there is, is both.

No. No, I stay with you.
No,

Each of us must do this thing alone.

Do it for each other.
But if you go, then I go with you.

That way I go too. I know you'll go
now, Mar�a, for both of us,

because we love each other always.

It's easier for me
to stay with you, Roberto.

I know it's harder for you.
But now I am you also.

If you go, I go too.
That's the only way I can go.

You're me now.
Surely you must feel that, Mar�a.

Remember last night? Our time is "now"
and it will never end.

No.
You're me now and I am you.

Now you understand. Now you're going.

And you're going well and fast and far.

We'll go to America
another time, Mar�a.

Stand up now and go. And we both go.

Stand up, Mar�a.
Remember, you're me too.

You're all there will be ever be of me
now. Stand up.

No. Stand up.

There's no goodbye, Mar�a,
because we're not apart.

Pilar!

Now, don't turn around.

Go now. Be strong.

Take care of our life.

No, no, Pilar, I can't go!

No! Oh, Roberto!

Roberto, let me stay, please!
Please don't make me go!

No, Roberto, no!

God,
that was lucky I could make her go.

I don't mind this at all now.
They're away.

Think how it would be
if they'd got Mar�a instead of you.

Don't pass out, Jordan.

Think about America.

I can't.

Think about Madrid.

I can't.

Think about Mar�a.

I can do that alright.

No, you fool! You weren't kidding
Mar�a about that talk of "now"!

Now they can't stop us, ever!
She's going on with me! Yes! Right!
