All language subtitles for Tulipunainen Kyyhkynen (1961)

The Scarlet Dove

Father, the crabs are here.
At least a hundred of them!

Don't drag the basket

Good evening, doctor!

Look, mother.
- Ulla, don't tease that crab.

I'm not teasing, I'm just holding it.

Boys, take the crabs up.
- Yeah, yeah.

Look, father!

Take it away, be kind.

The water is warm.

You couldn't believe
that the summer is over already.

That tomorrow we have to pack.

You know,
Ulla can swim very well.

I was swimming with the children.

Almost an hour.

You are almost like a child yourself.

I get older... you get younger.

I guess we have enough crabs.

Martta will make sandwiches
and then there will be those sausages -

the ones you like.

Are you going to dance today?

You could dance with me
once a summer.

Hold on to me -

so that some dashing young man
won't kiss me in the moonlight.

Because you don't.

What are you looking at?

You, of course.
Just thinking of you -

and that dashing young man
in the moonlight.

The one kissing you.

What does he look like?

Is he blonde, and tall?

With passionate eyes,
like yours.

First time that I hear you say
I have passionate eyes.

But I told that to you
on our wedding night

Sixteen years ago.
Don't forget everything so soon.

Look, does it show that
I've lost almost...-

almost three kilos?

Now I can fit into my dress
from last summer.

But you have the dress
from this summer.

But it's important for a woman
to fit into the last summer's dress.

You don't understand anything.
- No, I don't understand anything.

I only love you.

Remember that when you
kiss that young man.

Should we take you
to the cellar to cool off?

Oh, the beer, wine, schnapps and
the whisky have to be taken to the cellar.

Oh how dreadful,
I'll certainly be hungover tomorrow.

You will give me some pills then.

You make those cocktails too.

Oh, I wish there won't be a storm.

Helena...

Nothing, nothing.

Get lost, I'll make them!

Then go out and stay there.

Soon there will be a pack of
hungry guests -

who I have to feed.

And the kids are only
being a nuisance.

And nobody has any thought
of helping.

Martta is pissed off.
- Soon she will kick the bucket!

Then we will have a fun
funeral.

A Funeral...

Will they live long enough?

They will live to see the pot.
Now get out.

Go outside. Martta and
mother have a lot to do.

You don't have anything to worry about -

we have school day after tomorrow!
Torture of children, that's what it is.

What's wrong with the doctor?
- How so?

It's like something is bothering him.

Like he's thinking about something.

I haven't noticed anything.

It's me who usually notices things first
in this family.

But what would he be thinking?

Maybe that the Mrs is young
and he is starting to be old.

But he isn't old,
he doesn't have any reason to think that.

Why would he think that?

No, he's tired from this heat.

Has the Mrs said to him that
it isn't good lay in the sun too much?

No. But being a doctor he should know it.

A doctor or a minister,
they're all big children.

Father, the post is here.

Nothing but magazines and a letter -

and it's for mother.
- All right.

Take Daisy inside, too

Daisy, come. Let's go inside.

Dearest

Dearest!
I must see you on Thursday.

It's very important.
I expect you at a place you know well.

At 15 o'clock. Yours, K.

A letter for you.
- Thank you.

Who wrote you?
- Who...? Paula.

Who's Paula? - Paula?

What's making you so nervous?

Nothing

I'll sweep the floor.

Who's Paula?
- You don't know her.

I met her on a trip to Copenhagen.

What does she want from you?
- She's just writing.

Friends have a habit of writing to each other.

How are you? I am well.
And things like that

Why are you asking?

Just for the sake of conversation.

These are just innocent questions.

Well, how is she, then?
- Who?

That Paula.

Well why do you wish to know?

You haven't even met the person.

That hardly stops me
from asking how she is doing.

I haven't known many of the people, -

from whom I have cut a stomach open.

What time is it?

Coming twelve.
Going somewhere?

No.

It smells burnt in here.

Like someone has burnt paper.

Where are you going?

To the city,
I've a couple of meetings

It's Thursday after all.

Yes, it is Thursday.

It's not a pleasure going in this heat,
but there's no helping it.

When will you return?

When should I come back?
Not before evening?

Not before evening, that's enough.

Enough. For what?

I mean, enough time
to be back before the guests.

Yes, I won't be back before eight.

Then I won't expect you
back before eight.

How can it be so hot,
when autumn is beginning?

Goodbye, darling

Goodbye.

Father, are you going to town?
Can I come?

Can I come?

Are you hurt?

No, just resting.

Can you tell me,
when is the next bus to Helsinki?

It should go within the next half-hour.
- Thank you.

Can I go with you for some of the way?

As you please. - Thank you.

The warm weather came a little late.

Could have used it at hay-making.

Why did you ask for a bus,
driving your own car?

Looks like a brand new one.

Yes, there was a crash right
there last week.

Two men died.

Another a neighbour of mine.

Many thanks.

Do the buses to Helsinki
stop by the market?

Yes.
They all stop at the market.

Anything else? - What?

No, no. - Thank you.

Excuse me. May I call?

Please. The phone is over there.

And a half a kilo of butter.
- Excuse me...

What's the number for the centre?

- 09

Half a kilo of butter,
I don't dare to take more

Snappertuna 18.
From what number?

Excuse me,
what number is this?

Which number? Oh, this.
- Yes, this.

210 - Thank you.

Hello?

Is it Martta? It's me...

Could I speak with the Mrs?

Left?

When?

Doctor, hello, hello?

This must be enough for the call?
- Thank you, it's enough.

I could see that you were drunk.

I don't want a date who reeks of booze.

I wasn't drunk.
Just had a little drink when it was offered.

I know your drinks. Step aside.

Pardon me.

Could you give me something to drink?
What's that, I'll take it.

Grape, 35 marks.
A straw or a glass?

Pardon? - Do you want a glass or a straw?

A straw like this,
for sucking?

Can I get a glass?

Do you always have to joke around?
I got to be so ashamed because of you.

And beware of smelling
like booze tonight.

What are you nagging about,
we're not married yet?

Who's marrying you anyway.

You haven't bought me that
nightie you promised.

From next pay.
- What kind of nightie?

Yup. A see-through one.
- What good it's to you?

You don't know? Or are you planning
to spend rest of your life alone.

Give me a pack of fags.
- Which brand?

You should know?
- Yeah, yeah, here.

I'll go and sit over there.
- Go then.

Could I get a glass of juice?
- Juice, 30 marks.

Thank you.

Matches. - 10 marks.

I told you not to write.

He knows now.
- Knows?

At least guesses.
He saw your letter.

I had to write...

Sir,
buy some shoelaces.

Sir,
buy some shoelaces.

I'm afraid. - Afraid?
What are you afraid of?

Are you ashamed to love?

Sir, buy shoelaces
- Would you mind?

Good day. - Good day?

Could I look at some binoculars?

And for what purpose they would be?

Well, I... that

Here we have one of the larger ones,
10x 50.

A perfect general type.

Could I have a look?
- Yes, of course.

What are those numbers
you mentioned?

The first one is for
magnification -

and the other
the diameter of the objective.

Well then isn't a binocular -

that magnifies more, better?

Not always, for
the brightness of the binocular -

gets weaker when
the magnification increases.

Here we have a more
magnifying model, 20x50.

It's harder to hold though.

This is good.

Of course
more magnifying one is better -

if you think that it's bright enough.
The windows disturb of course.

I'll take this.
How much?

12 500. The case comes with it.
- Thank you.

Hey, bring her aboard.

Yes, you just bring her aboard.

I can't think any more.

I don't know what's wrong
and what's right.

Help me.

We'll go together.
I won't let you go back.

I'll take you with me.
There's no other chance.

I can't live without you.
You belong to me.

There can't be anything else.

Only you and me.

Have you thought about everything?

Everything.

Planned it,
like a crime.

It's necessary.

Perhaps unbearable for you.

There's no going back for you.
Not any more.

I can't do it.

I can't leave them.

How can I explain it to them.

I could never be happy.

You don't have to explain anything.

You just write.
Few words will suffice.

The ship leaves
tomorrow at three.

Only take a small bag.

I'll reserve a cabin for you.
Under my own name.

Darling...

I should have never met you.

Remember?
The wind took your hat.

And you brought it back to me.

You were wearing a uniform,
and you smelled of sea.

When I escorted you,
you didn't tell me your name.

But I found it out easily.

And when I called you, -

I could hear from your voice
that you wanted to see me too

Even if you told me no at first.

I should have never met you.

Dearest.

I wish we had a place to go.

No one is going to see us here.

Let's go.

Did I frighten you?

You look lost.

I thought I would ask the time, -

but it's not like time means anything.

You'll burn your fingers.

Did you burn your fingers?

We could have met again
somewhere more romantic.

In a gondola, or a in hut of leaves,
while the nightingale sings.

At least it's going to be
a full moon.

You may talk to me.

I'm not one of those women,
who call for a police.

Where do we get off?

We? - Yes, you and me.

You're not used to this.

You don't want to forget her.

You dig into your sorrow
like a mole.

My sorrow? - It's in your
eyes and in your voice.

Forgive me, I'm not
quite myself.

You don't find it peculiar to
meet again like this?

Isn't it an odd coincidence?

Maybe it wasn't a coincidence.

Where are you taking me?

You'll see soon.
Far away.

You don't even know
who I am.

I know who you are,
you don't have to tell me anything.

Who are you?

I'm Heidi. I'm Ritva, Anneli,
Paula. I'm whatever you want.

You get to choose.
I'm everything you want.

Wouldn't you like to be Ritva?

Before I was twenty, -

I loved a girl called Ritva.

Good. I'll be your Ritva.

You be under twenty.

Do you know this place?
- Yes.

Do you like this?
- I do... Ritva.

I'll call you Ritva.

You told me,
that you know who I am.

I do.

You are a bank manager
who has embezzled, -

waiting for accountants.

You are a schoolboy,
caught on a lie.

Come.

I don't even imagine,
that I'm the first one to say, -

that you are wonderful.

You say it beautifully anyway.

And it's wonderful to be with you.

A man shouldn't use that
word too often.

It's not appropriate for men.

Which word? - Wonderful.

I make a lot of mistakes.

Only today,
before I met you...

You have helped me, Ritva.

You have helped me
more than you realise.

Helped? How?

Away from my foolishness.
Out of such depths -

in which I would have
never believed to find myself in.

A cigarette? - I don't smoke.

You brought me back
my conscience.

What if I'm a lie,
your bad conscience.

No, I was thinking of death.

You brought life.

This is silly talk.

Did you talk like this
before you were twenty?

When you were in love
for the first time?

It wasn't the first time.

I fell in love already at thirteen.

But the girl let me down.
She laughed at me.

You have been betrayed often.

You shouldn't have come to
know any other women than your mother.

I'd like to learn to know you: -

your life, -

your friends, -

your thoughts.

Look at me, and tell yourself
what I am like.

You are good and beautiful.

You haven't told me that
you love me yet.

I love you.

Why did you want to come here?

I want to swim.
- Swim?

You didn't want to dance,
then I want to swim.

At this hour?
- Time means nothing.

I'm a little tipsy and I want to swim.
You don't? - No.

A man who doesn't want to
swim or dance.

Ritva...

Ritva?

Are you leaving me too?

Do you like my body?

Should I lose weight?

So that you would fit
into a dress from last summer?

Why into last summer's?

Let's go to my place.
- Let's.

Why didn't you tell me not to swim?
I'm cold.

Better not to compare this
to the house you live in.

Make yourself at home.

Not a room with a view.

There's the bottle,
have a drink if you like.

Give me a cigarette.
- You said that you don't smoke.

Yeah?
What else did I say?

I love you, Ritva.

Stop that foolish talk
about Ritva!

Turn off the light.

Or do you prefer
making love in the light?

What's up with you?

What did I do?

You are beautiful.
I love you, Ritva.

Animal! Dirty, miserable beast!

Disgusting, greasy worm!

You don't love anyone!
Nothing but yourself.

You want to bawl out your misery
to a first woman -

and it happened to be me
To me you wanted to drown -

all the rubbish you have
collected.

I was insignificant enough for you.

You are being betrayed.
You don't deserve anything more.

No man has deserved
anything else.

All right, I won't take
a payment from you.

Once a month
I have to be allowed to hit.

You have already paid for
what you want.

You can come now.

Go there.

Where?
- Where's your wife?

My wife has been murdered!

Help me!
Search for help!

My wife has been murdered!

Don't point it at me!

Can't they wake up that
janitor?

The janitor is here already!
- All right

Search the stand throughout.

Save everything you find.

How long has she been dead?

It would be about time to know that.

Can't say for sure.
From two to five hours.

Two stabs with a knife,
the other one straight to heart.

Died immediately.

Well, we'll know more after
the autopsy.

But it has to be done soon.

What the hell!
Who let the press in?

I told you not to let them in here!

No one let us in.
We have our own routes.

Well now, I know that face.

Listen here, if I get to read
some rubbish tomorrow...

You just read the comics
like this far.

Some day I will wring your neck.

Then for once we would both
be at the crime scene on time.

Give me that knife.

And you are...

You were the victim's husband.

Would you show me some papers
for identification.

Driver's license or some such.

I hope you haven't been doing
any driving in the last hours.

I can smell brandy.

What's this?

Maurila, a handkerchief.

Well now, you are
coming with us.

Maurila, you come with me.

Turunen,
you take care of things here.

Aitamaa, Olavi. A doctor
of medicine and surgery.

I am Mankala,
inspector Mankala.

Do you happen to remember -

that you cut my wife's
gallstones a few years back?

Maurila, if that
typewriter won't begin to work, -

you'll be made a
traffic police to the market square.

Yeah, this isn't working.
I'll write by hand.

Doctor Aitamaa, you were met
by your wife's body -

under suspicious circumstances,

in your hand
the knife your wife was killed with.

Knife in hand
and a pistol in your pocket.

You don't think that I...

That thought is very near...

Have I been arrested?
- Yes. For interrogation.

But I can explain everything.

I didn't kill my wife, -

but I know who did.
- Then who?

A tall, young man

with sunglasses.
I saw him with my wife.

A tall, young man
with sunglasses?

Listen now, doctor, -

we won't get anywhere
like this.

And I'm going to
solve this case.

That man was my wife's lover.

We'll come to him later.

You just start from the beginning.
And remember -

that it is most unusual to find
a doctor of medicine -

by her dead wife,
with a knife in his hand.

I had for some time suspected
that my wife has a lover

Today... or yesterday
she received a letter.

I noticed,
that it was from that man.

My wife burnt it.

I wanted to be certain.
I went to the city.

And then happened what
I had thought...

they met each other.

An amazing story.

Well now, let's summarise.

You left to shadow your wife -

to be certain that she
was being unfaithful.

You followed her into town,
where you saw her meet a man -

with whom she went
here and there.

And finally you saw them
go to the scene of murder and... -

make love to each other.

That was enough for you.

You left,
and walked about.

Then you met a young
red-haired woman -

whose name you
also don't know.

You spent a couple of hours with her,
doing this and that.

You left her in her own bed
and quickly found yourself to be -

by your dead wife's body, -

a knife in your hand
and a pistol in your pocket.

Would you believe this story
even yourself?

Doctor Aitamaa -

you are a learned, civilized man.

How can you degrade yourself
with this kind of behaviour?

What purpose did you have taking
that gun with you?

You meant to shoot your
wife and her lover -

but for some reason you
settled for stabbing your wife twice, -

and now you're making up stories for me.

You are wrong,
you have to believe me.

If I have to believe you, -

you have to prove
that you are speaking the truth.

Your only witness
is that red-haired woman, -

that scarlet dove,
with whom -

you claim to have been
when the murder was committed

Are you still claiming
to not know her name?

How is it possible -

that you went as far as her bed, -

without even knowing her name?

You don't really need a name for that.

I don't know her name,
but I know where she lives.

And that's where we're going.

And Lord help you,
Aitamaa, -

that we find the
woman from that address.

So! Matinkatu 17.

No house.

No woman.

Aitamaa, you lied.

Hey, watchman.

When was the last time
there was a building here?

They took it down
couple years back.

An old shack it was.
Full of whores and booze.

They haven't started to
build another one yet...

What the hell?

Karra, circle around!

Alarm all the cars,
quickly!

Hey, close that window.
I'm not wearing anything.

Doctor Aitamaa!
I remember you!

I may be old,
but I still have my memory.

It's half five in the morning.

Isn't this a peculiar time
for a visit?

Are you not well? Oh my
good man, sit down!

What has happened?

Oh my good man,
what should I do.

I should have some
brandy here for medicine.

Genuine pharmacist's brandy.

My good man,
what should I do?

It's half five in the morning.

Drink that.

Dean,
I apologise for coming

But I had not other
place to go to.

You married us. My wife
and me, sixteen years ago.

They suspect me for murdering my wife.

They are after me.

I couldn't go anywhere else.

Helena is dead!
She has been murdered!

Did you do it? - No,
but they don't believe me.

I'm sorry, my heart is not
what it used to be.

Really, I shouldn't complain -

when all that has happened to you.

Oh my good people.

That was a horrid tale.

It is like you are on the cross.
But what can you do?

You cannot stay here.

You have to give yourself
up to the police.

You cannot stay here.

I want to meet that
woman I told you about.

And I want to meet that man,
who murdered Helena.

I do understand you -

but the only sensible thing to do
is to go to the police.

Wait

See, it's your picture.
It's all here.

Do as I beg of you.
Good man, come to your senses.

A wife of a famous doctor murdered -
Husband suspected for the killing on the run

(praying)

You will go to the police?
- No

You do understand,
that you're only making it worse?

Your hands are dirty and so is your face.
Wash yourself.

Bathroom is on the right.

You must understand, that
my duty is to notify the police --

that you have been here.

I will call the police ten minutes after
you have gone.

May God protect him.
And forgive me.

A doctor's wife murdered -
Husband arrested, now on the run

Ritva, you know me don't you?

For God's sake,
say that you know me.

What do you want?
Erkki, Erkki come here.

I don't understand what
this man wants.

724. Tampere to the eight.

Could I order a call?
-Yes?

Snappertuna 18.
- What kind?

A quick one. - Please wait a moment.

You can wait on the bench over there.

Kuopio 14701 to the fifth.

Snappertuna 18, to the ninth.

Snappertuna 18, to the ninth!

Martta, is that Martta?
It's the doctor.

Doctor, where are you? Is it true?
is the Mrs dead?

The police are here.
Talk, doctor, where are you?

Martta, give my best to the children.
Tell that I love them.

Tell them that mother is dead,
but I didn't kill her.

Tell them...

The ship leaves
tomorrow at three

At three

Hey... hello, you didn't pay!

I told you that we're late.
-Yes but we'll make it.

The card if you please...
- The card?

The boarding card and the tickets
are with my wife, that lady over there.

When does the bar open?
- As soon as the ship leaves.

Dear God, where's
that brown suitcase?

I put it just there.

Come over here,
check the tickets.

Tell them to come quick!

Officers

You are wanted for your
wife's murder, doctor Aitamaa.

There's a police aboard,
who will certainly be happy -

to meet you.
Should I get him?

Why did you hate Helena so much,
that you killed her?

Only you, doctor Aitamaa, claim
that I killed her.

Only you, doctor Aitamaa.

Why did you hate her?

You are wrong.
- Why?

I lover her!
- Why did you kill her?

I loved her, more than anything!

She loved me,
I loved her!

Listen, I wanted her all for myself.
All for myself.

But she didn't want to leave you,
you and the children.

I wanted her, I loved her.

No, I'll tell everything!

Well now, doctor Aitamaa.

Isn't this pretty.

If this is a middle-age crisis --

then it's beginning nicely.

Listen, we have to go now.

Martta wants to know if the
crab water has enough salt

And the cocktails have to be made.

We have to go.

Olavi, they're coming already.

Hello, welcome!

Hello, Helena!

Hi!

Welcome.

Oh it's nice to see you alive!

Alive? - Yes, I mean lively.

In good health and all.

Of course I'm in good health -

I haven't partied in days!

After all I'm a judge, not a
drinker.

Well, I might be a little crabby tomorrow,
with all the crabs we're eating today.

But I'm not about to die from that.
- What would kill you anyway?

I brought my secretary along,
I hope you don't mind.

She would have been all by herself
in a big city. - Call her in.

Miss Huurre.

Don't be so shy.

She's also useful, -

as she is driving me
back to town.

Welcome, Miss Huurre.

Good evening, doctor.
We have met.

We have met? Where?
- Don't you remember?

In the judge's office.

Oh yes, of course.

Excuse me, your name
doesn't happen to be Ritva?

No, I'm lrja. But I can be
Ritva too, if you want.

Welcome

You are simply stunning today!

May I present?
Miss Huurre, my wife.

Welcome

I woke up because I heard voices.

Father...

What are you doing down here?
- I heard voices.

You have to go back to bed,
you're not well!

Evening, professor,
how is the professor doing?

Better than him!
Where's that champagne?

Right here.
A glass for the professor!

That's nothing yet -

but should I tell you the dream
I had last night?

That's enough dreams and champagne.
It's time for you to go to bed.

Don't spill!

Good night, father

Good night, professor.

Sleep well!

By spoiling the ending,
you ruin the suspense from others!
