What's wrong with you?

Run!

- Firedamp! - Firedamp!

- Run! - Come on, hurry up!

- Don't just stand there! - Let's go, let's go!

- Dad! Dad! Dad! - Where's Zacharie and Fleurance?!

- They weren't with you? - Hell, no!

Dansaert! Dansaert!

There's people downstairs! Let's go get them!

Impossible! There's fire everywhere!

Elevator's coing up!

Calm down, please!

Zacharie!

Get out! Hurry!

The fight,

the fierce fight...

That is the meaning of our life.

Since Adam and Eve were expelled from the earthly paradise,

every day is a battle...

against nature, against savagery,

against sin, which resides in each one of us.

You cry for Fleurance, I know,

I cry too.

But we must remain united to Jesus...

for the salvation of his soul...

and ours.

You work hard,

without rest,

but we must continue to trust in those who show us the way,

in our engineers,

on our director.

Now, let us pray.

For Fleurance.

- To Fleurance. - To Fleurance!

To Fleurance. And let's see when the next one will be.

- Enough, Rasseneur. - Don't be an ass-kisser, Maheu.

In six months, how many accidents have there been?

And what did this guy do for safety?

- Nothing! - He is aware of the problem,

but now he can't do anything. There is a crisis.

We have the crisis.

- He is right. - We are suffering the crisis.

Yes, I understand your concern.

I promise you that will change.

The world will keep on turning...

and more and more coal will be needed.

Believe me.

Pleasant Sunday to all.

They really don't give a damn if we die down there.

- How right. - That's right, that's right.

As long as they have their benefits...

- It's a disgrace. - Yes, yes! He's right.

Don't believe everything they say in Paris.

People live very well here.

The company offers them everything they need:

accommodation, school, medical

They even have free coal.

You'll see.

It's very clean.

I congratulate you.

Thank you.

And they have room.

How many live here?

There are ten of us.

But there are two rooms upstairs.

Yeah, well, I don't know.

Don't take what I'm about to say the wrong way,

but do you think it's responsible to have so many children in your situation?

Come on...we won't bother you anymore.

- Thank you for having us. - Goodbye.

Goodbye, madam.

Let's go.

But we're happy, Madame, we're not complaining.

- Good-bye, Madame. - Goodbye, madam. Good bye.

- Yes! - Bravo!

- Yes! - Bravo!

It's your turn. If you wouldn't rather give up already.

Catherine,

if I win,

- I'll take you dancing in Marchiennes. - Watch out for my sister.

I didn't say yes, did I?

See what I told you? He's crazy about you.

- Some of them will be jealous. - Yes, they will be.

Yeah!

- Well? - And by a lot, right?

Let go.

Will you give him the salaries, please?

- The money for our son? - No luck.

You're never lucky. You're useless.

Take it easy.

- I slipped. - Yes, that must be it.

I swear, Catherine.

- Come, Mouquette. - Catherine.

I didn't do it on purpose!

- I slipped. - Yeah, right, you slipped.

Catherine! I promise you! I slipped!

- Well? - Deneulin!

Philippe.

- I didn't see you at the church. - There has been a little unforeseen.

Impressive.

Even if it forces you to work on Sunday.

That's the way it is. That's how small companies are.

You have to do it all yourself. You go ahead.

But...

you're not investing too much money...

when stocks build up and prices plunge?

Besides, they say you hire people....

- and you raise salaries. - That worries you, doesn't it?

- That I treat my workers well? - Me? No,

but the company might.

Put yourself in their shoes. How will you look favorably on this in Paris?

You work for the company, I don't.

This is my house, I do what I want.

David! Now! Back up, back up.

This mine is all I have left of my wife.

I want my daughter to inherit it, do you understand?

Madam?

Madame?

Madame?

Your guests are about to arrive.

Stop. Stop, Paul.

Today's a big day, you know that. Come on, wake up.

If you had seen it

He wanted to impress me with his machines and his mechanical skills.

But how pretentious.

There you are.

I apologize.

At last we can address the real object of this lunch.

I waited until we were all here to celebrate some great news.

We finally found a date for the wedding.

Cécile, Paul. We're going to organize the best wedding of the year.

- Let's toast. To the wedding! - To the wedding!

What do you want?

I come from Pluchart.

It's for you.

Thank you.

He says you're a good boy.

Why did you have to run away from Lille?

Problems.

Listen, Pluchart is an old friend,

if you don't tell me more, I won't be able to help you.

The comrades and I wanted to set up a union...

and a cooperative for the families.

But we were dissuaded.

The boss came with his thugs...

and I badly wounded one of them,

but it was in self-defense.

Pluchart told me that no one would look for me here,

that I could stay here and maybe get a job.

- That's very kind of you, but... - Monsieur, I beg you.

They swore they'd kill me.

If you have a vacancy, of whatever, I'll take it.

I'll see what I can do, but keep it quiet.

Thank you.

You're not nervous?

Are you kidding? With this, the Parisians will eat out of my hand.

I'll be back on the last train.

Thank you.

I trust you with the mine.

In my absence, you will be in charge.

Zacharie.

Wake up, Zacharie, we have to get up.

Wake up.

Rise and shine, you slackers. Time to get up.

Dad. Dad, it's time to get up. Wake up.

Come on, let's go.

Well, well, the Maheu's are asleep. It's tough this morning.

How's it going?

- Fine. How are you? - I'm good.

- You want some? - No, thanks.

Everything that's mine is yours, Catherine.

All of it.

Wake up! It's time! Let's go!

- You owe me, don't you? - I don't like to take strangers.

- Have you ever been down there? - Sure have. The boy was an apprentice.

- And why did you leave Lille? - Your factory closed.

- You're not able to answer by yourself? - Well, do you take it or not?

You're in luck, a wagoner position has just become vacant.

- Do you know what it is or not? - Yes, I do.

The arms? The mouth.

Fit for service.

Thank you.

Maheu, just in time. There's a new one coming.

- He'll replace Fleurance. - See you later, Dad.

Take care of him and

Team!

What is your name?

Etienne Lantier.

You don't have miner's hands.

- I won't let you down, I swear to you. - You haven't got a clue.

The Fleurance you're replacing didn't last a month.

Why did she leave?

- He's dead. - Boy.

Go to Catherine and Jeanlin, they'll give you the necessary.

Let's go.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Good morning!

You'll see how it's not so hard down there. They were pulling your chain.

But you're going down too?

- How old are you? - Me? Thirteen years old.

Or so I think.

I'm already an old hand here.

So you're the new guy?

You're not bad. A little thin, but not bad.

I thought you only dated real miners.

Then look.

There, that's it, it's perfect.

Come on. Are you coming?

Thank you.

Come on, let's go!

- Hello. - Good morning.

- So we're down a lot? - No, not much.

Six hundred meters.

Yeah, that's right.

On your first descent you have to shout three times: "Goodbye, beautiful days".

- Yes. - It's the tradition.

Say it.

Goodbye, beautiful days.

What's this? Louder.

- Harder! - Goodbye, beautiful days!

Oh, my God! We're going to crash! We're going down!

Come on, let's go.

Let's go, let's go!

Goodbye, beautiful days.

I'm gonna get you! I'm gonna get you!

Let's see if you can catch me, mush-face!

Don't go through the middle.

Alzire, stay with the little one.

- I have class, mom. - Yes, I won't be long. Come on, come on.

Sit down.

Take it well.

Lénore and Henri, come with me.

Here, put your coat on.

Come on.

Come on, hurry up.

Come on, come on!

- How much further? - Don't worry, we'll take a shortcut.

- Are you coming to pay me what you owe me? - I need a postponement, Monsieur.

- Until the end of the month, then I'll pay. - After? Yes, of course.

Is that why you came with the children? To give me grief?

Some potatoes, some coffee and sugar.

Some potatoes, some sugar. What do I live on if I trust everybody?

- That's the last time. - You already told me that.

If your husband didn't go drinking, you'd have something to pay me with.

I won't let him say that.

You won't let me? In my store?

It's not your store, it's the company's.

So what?

What a difference, isn't it?

Go on, get out. Get out, you and your kids. Get out.

If you don't

Wait here.

Send Catherine to me.

We'll come to an agreement.

You're a pig, Maigrat.

You will never touch my daughter. Do you understand? Never!

That's your problem! You have too much pride!

At least we have something.

Go ahead, you're slowing us down.

Wait.

Go without me.

I won't be able to.

That's impossible. You no longer have a choice.

We go out together and come back together. Here.

We can't stay. The air is bad.

- What? The flame. - The flame.

It can't turn small and blue, understand?

- If not what? - If not, it's too late.

They say that "death blows the lamp".

Come on, come.

Up!

- Let's go! Let's go! - Yeah, let's go!

And in Montsou, Monsieur Hennebeau,

- How are we doing? - It's all here.

Please.

As you can see, I have reduced the operating costs...

that my predecessor had let rise.

So, in spite of the crisis, we have achieved the targets set.

We even exceeded them in the last quarter.

All right.

That's in terms of the chart of accounts.

We are concerned about the competition.

- Pardon? - You know, Monsieur Hennebeau?

We must manage a war, a war on a national scale,

even global.

Yes. I'm aware of that.

Why have you allowed them to open a new mine...

right next to our wells?

You mean Jean Bart?

I can't stop...

- that an independent owner - Well, of course you can.

- In fact, he must. - But Deneulin is not a salesman.

Then convince him.

Or we'll find someone else to do it.

Next folder.

Souvarine, pass me your bottle, please.

Put this on.

Come on, it's our turn.

Push, don't pull.

I agree.

- I won't be able to. - It's not on the rails.

Look, it's done like this.

Now you push it all the way to the hitch.

Let's go.

Let's go, let's go!

Hands here, like this. Lower back. Now push!

Come on, let's go!

Thank you.

Madame. They're here to see you.

Good morning, Madame.

Good morning, Monsieur.

Sorry to disturb you.

- I have come - Yes, I understand.

We have put aside some old things, still in good condition or used.

- Would they agree with you? - Yes, yes. Thank you.

Go get the clothes, Mélanie, please.

Yes, Madame.

Children. Here.

Tomen.

Come closer.

Thank you.

Thank you.

In fact, that's why I came.

I need a hundred salaries,

- to feed my family. - No, madam,

that wouldn't be helping you.

One must learn to manage one's budget,

do you understand?

Very well.

- Good morning, Monsieur. - Thank you.

Let's go. Thank you for everything.

Wait! Wait!

You dropped this.

Thank you.

What are you looking at like that? Me or my sandwich?

I'm sorry.

Here.

Thank you.

Slow down, you're going to drown.

Well, where do you come from?

- From Lille. - Funny, it doesn't look like it.

It's a long story.

I'm in no hurry.

I was born in Paris.

At the age of 12, my mother sent me to study in Lille.

But then she died...

and I stayed in the north.

You didn't see her again?

No.

He gave his all for others...

and died in misery.

Look at the new one.

Do you eat the girls' bread?

- That's ugly. - Antoine.

What do you mean, Antoine? What? Come here.

You owe me a dance, remember?

I don't owe anybody anything.

We are like this.

I'll pick you up on Sunday to go to the dance.

Yes, yes, very good.

Is he your boyfriend?

No, just a friend, but he flirts like that with all the girls.

He's coming back. Up.

Back to work.

Don't run!

Slow down!

I'm late, I know.

Don't worry, mom. I've put the water in for the soup,

Estelle sleeps in the crib, grandpa is upstairs.

Is that it? Can I go?

Of course you can. You can go.

- Can we go play upstairs? - Yeah. Come on up.

Oh, shit.

This is bullshit.

They have to get the wood right when they go forward.

If there's an accident, they're going to say...

- that it's the fault of the steering. - The reef is very hard.

It takes us a long time if we want to gain anything.

They must guarantee our safety.

We talked to Négrel, he agrees.

The interlocutor is me. I talk to the engineer.

When a horse dies, it is not Négrel who is accountable but me.

- It's not only horses that die here! - Souvarine.

A miner costs less to replace than a horse.

Do you want to get like this?

All right.

I'll give you a penalty, so you will learn.

Get out of the way!

Damn it. It's coming out of our pocket, I'm telling you.

It can't be, we can't accept it.

What do you want to do to him? It's like this.

We have to do what he said. And forget about our salary.

You both can go up, we don't need you.

No, I'll stay and help you.

Me too.

Come, I'll show you.

- Are you sure you don't want to do anything? - No, I don't want to do anything.

- I've got my mind on something else. - As you wish.

And what's that? A present for me?

No, it's for her.

I don't want to imagine the look on her face if she came back empty-handed.

- Things are not going well for you? - Yes, yes, on the contrary.

It was good for us to leave Paris.

We couldn't go on the same way.

I was suffering a lot.

- No, no, I quit. - Well, you know what you're missing.

For bad weather days.

Get out now.

Go upstairs and wake up grandpa, it's time.

- Come on, let's go. - Yes, I'm coming.

Don't worry so much.

- We'll manage. - You think so?

Of course we will.

We always did,

didn't we?

- My turn. - Good shot.

Hi there!

You two, get out.

Out, out, out. You're upsetting me.

Partner, I'll buy you a gin.

- You acquitted yourself well on the first day. - I don't drink alcohol.

What's that?

How about a beer?

A beer, yes.

Thank you.

Tell us a little bit. How did you end up here?

I was in Lille, but the factory closed.

There is a crisis there. Nobody hires anymore.

So I took the road and here I am.

Then you're lucky. You could have done worse. Couldn't you?

Yeah. Besides, you work with the beautiful Catherine.

No, no, I see you coming. Catherine...

she's booked.

I don't know how you did it, mom, but it's good.

Thank you.

You're finally here.

Where were you? Hanging out?

A gift.

- Did you steal it? - No. I didn't steal it,

- I found it. - I found it. Take me for an idiot.

I told you I don't want it here.

And go wash up, you won't sit at the table like that.

I want to tell you something.

The teacher wants to prepare me...

for the school leaving certificate at the end of the course.

He thinks I have the level to go to home school or normal school.

Very good,

- No, it's not? That's good. - All right.

That's great.

Come on, come on.

All right, sweetheart, all right.

- So I can? I was afraid... - No, no, no, no, no, no.

We'll manage.

We'll manage.

It's easy for them, from their offices in Paris.

What am I going to do to convince Deneulin?

I can't force him to sell.

Even if I were a seller, it is not written that I would sell the company.

- Why not? - It belittles me, I realize.

He doesn't miss a chance to point it out to me.

I've worked here all my life, they wouldn't dare throw me out.

If they throw me out, you lose everything.

The big wedding, the chief engineer's job, it's all over.

We have to find a solution, Paul. Whatever it takes.

Well. Did you want something else?

I don't know if this is the time.

Go ahead, while we're at it.

You know the teams are complaining about the depletion of the seam.

- Yes. - I've looked at all the plans,

- all the calculations. - ¿Y?

We're at an impasse.

There is an earth movement.

Other than rocks, there is nothing to take out of the current seam.

A new one will have to be found. And it is possible, of course,

but it will be expensive.

THE ADVANTAGE

Good.

- Good night, partner. - Good night, mate.

Come and have a bite to eat, you'll be starving.

Hello.

MANIFESTO OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY

Do you know it?

A little bit.

Is this why you had to take refuge in this rat's nest?

You mean my inn?

No.

I'm talking about all this, the mine, this hell.

I'm just trying to make a living,

just like anyone else.

"Like anyone."

Right.

Handkerchiefs and ribbons! Don't even think about it!

Six dollars a handkerchief, three dollars a ribbon!

Madam, madam.

Look at that gender. Six salaries for a handkerchief!

Three dollars a ribbon! Look, gentlemen!

Madam, madam. Handkerchiefs and ribbons!

Look at this genre, Madame. Madam, which one do you like?

What are you waiting for, Etienne?

I don't even know if he likes me.

Sometimes you have to take a risk. You have to force your destiny.

- I think this one's for you. - Is it silk?

- Of course it is. - Come on. I'm sorry about that.

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry. - Three paychecks, Madame!

- Six salaries a handkerchief! - Go, I'm coming.

Monsieur, a ribbon? A handkerchief?

Well, what are you going to do?

I don't know.

Don't you like it?

- Yes, I do. - So?

He's handsome, but he scares me.

It's there.

- Hit it! - All right!

- That's it! - That's it!

Take that!

I don't know what you did to him, but he seems very much in love.

Nothing. I didn't do anything, really.

Come on, come on.

There you have it! There you have the winner!

The victory goes to Vasseur!

Come on! Come on!

And now who's coming, ladies and gentlemen? Who dares to come?

Who's coming? No? Yes...yes. Maybe you, Monsieur?

Germain! If you hold on for a minute you win a bottle of alcohol.

- What's up? - Have you seen Catherine?

No, I haven't seen Catherine. Here! Here's one! Here's one!

- No, no, No. - Yes! You can do it, you can do it!

This one looks small, but he's going to crush it.

- Monsieur, I'm looking forward to seeing you. - I can't fight.

- It's okay if you can't fight. - Neither can he.

Don't make such a big deal out of it!

Are you a miner or what?!

Come on, let's go!

Yeah! Hit it!

Come on, Etienne!

Come on, Etienne!

Show everyone what a real miner looks like.

- Hit it, new guy! - Come on, you can do it, Etienne!

New! New! New! New! New! New! New!

You can do it! Come on!

Look your opponent in the eye!

Come on, Etienne!

Come on, Etienne!

Boy, get up!

I miss you.

Come on, Etienne!

Up.

- Go, Bouteloup! Come on, Bouteloup. - I'm coming.

Come on, boy, that's it, you fought well. Come on.

I'll go now.

I will recover the honor of the miners.

Come on, Bouteloup!

What? Ready?

I'll wait for you!

Come on!

Yes!

You're beautiful. How beautiful you are.

Wait for it.

Slow down.

I know,

I'm so clumsy, but I love you so much.

I love you.

Stop it. No, stop.

Let it be done.

Stop!

No, no, no!

You're mine now. You are mine.
