All language subtitles for It Takes A Thief - 25 A Case Of Red Turnips @i

Run it back.

I'll tell you when to stop. Right, Mr.
Bain.

I see you made good time.

1 .30 in the morning?

Your man said it was important.

It is, Al, terribly.

Well, it better be, because I gave a
brief fee -fee on the late show for

Ready, Mr. Bain? Go ahead.

One question. Just watch closely. All
your questions will be answered except

one, maybe.

Noah. How do we prevent Al Mundy from
being killed within the next 48 hours?

Oh, look, Al, I'm not asking you to spy.

You're not asking me to steal.

preview card or buy popcorn.

The rest of it's ready in the projection
room, Mr. Bain.

Thank you, Frank.

Let's go see the rest of it.

Noah.

The rest of what?

You just saw part of the red turnips
made by Lester V. Griffin.

Oh, yeah, Lester V. Griffin.

Avant -garde film nut. He makes
underground movies and subways. A loser.

Maybe not.

He's showing this gem at the La Palma
Film Festival.

So he blows it. Why get uptight?

Because we're facing a disaster, that's
why.

Those men in the pictures, buying
turnips, they're agents.

Agents buying turnips equals disaster.

They're our agents.

I don't know how he managed it, but he
photographed the most important drop in

Sector 3.

Do you have the anchor?

Right.

How many active agents in the film?

Eleven.

No, ten now.

Anytime you're ready.

One of them, Agent Rennick, was picked
up when a piece of scrap film was found

on the cutting room floor of a West
German film lab. An entrepreneur peddled

to us after recognizing Rennick's
identity. We paid money for it. Who else

Rennick's picture?

We don't know.

But any country wanting pictures of SIA
agents working in Sector 3 probably

bought the Rennick copy and now have
teams working on how to get the complete

Crippen film.

You want me to cop the negative, right?
Wrong. We cop.

Confiscated the negative.

No duplicates were made.

Well, in that case, you've got nothing
to worry about, Noah. Right? Wrong.

Griffin has a print. The only other one
in existence, and he's showing it at the

La Palma Film Festival.

What's to stop someone from wanting to
steal that print?

Before we can steal it, you mean.

Well, we've tried every other approach.

It is his film, Noah. I don't care.

It's probably a kick -off wholesale
slaughter of our agents.

All right, that's enough.

Griffin obviously hid the film
somewhere.

We've got to get it and get it fast.

We know they won't hesitate when it
comes to killing. It's just that simple.

That simple.

How long do we have before the official
screening?

48 hours.

Well, I'm glad you didn't wait until the
last minute to call me in.

You don't have to worry about a thing.
I'll be working with the best team in

world. I'm sending along the best man
the S .I .A. has.

Who? Me.

This is for the SIA.

We have to go to the La Palma
International Film Festival and get the

film director right now.

This is a copy.

We have to go to the La Palma
International Film Festival.

Go now!

I'm still giving you the key to the
biggest candy store you've ever raided.

you know why? Because I trust you. I
trust you to get the job done and fast.

Now.

Now.

to do your number.

Nonsense, M .B.

You want to produce a picture from my
novel?

My price is what I told you. One million
dollars. If she can get it for acting,

I can certainly get it for directing.
Sure,

sure, Henry. I know your novel is the
best thing to come down the pike in the

last ten years, but a million dollars?
Senor Henry Raymond Fulton. Of course.

And Senor Morris Bragg. A pleasure.

A distinct pleasure.

Welcome to La Palma.

We decide some research on the broad.

In shooting the broad, we tend to take
advantage of all the natural things.

Buenos dias, senor Greco.

A bit of excitement, no?

I trust everything is to your
satisfaction?

Well, frankly, senor Packard, not
exactly as thrilled to death with that

-called suite you've put me in.

Que lastima. We will change it at once.

Won't be necessary. I'm leaving tomorrow
after the showing of my film.

An occasion on which I wish you much
good fortune.

Which brings us to a subject I find very
distasteful. If you will allow me. Yes?

The gambling casino.

Oh, that.

They have come to see me again this
morning. It has been almost two weeks.

told them I'd pay before I left, and I'm
not leaving until tomorrow, late.

I'm afraid they demand payment today.

I've cabled for a bank draft. It'll
arrive later.

I hope so, senor.

What's that supposed to mean?

Specifically, it means you no longer
have credit at the tables.

Does that include the dining tables,
Senor Paco?

No, certainly not. You are our guest,
and we are men of honor.

May you have better luck with your
films, Senor Cricket.

Senor? Thank you.

I've got it. Oh, I've got it. Just a
minute, Morris.

Thank you, Senor.

You're welcome.

This is an SIA operation.

This is not foreign aid.

Noah, the faster we spread it around,
the faster the word will get out.

Now, we've only got 24 hours to get the
film. After that, they'll blow our

cover. Mr. Bragg?

Yes, I want to talk to you about that
name you picked for me.

Room service.

Room service, this is 102.

Will you send up one typewriter and a
ream of yellow paper and have a...

public stenographer on the terrace in 15
minutes.

All right. Thank you.

There you go, Maura.

Mr. Henry Raymond Poulton?

Yes? I am Miss Vander.

Yes? Stenographer?

Yes. Sit down.

Naturally, I believe that all films
should have a thrust towards the

incredible... Take this down, Miss
Vander.

The sun -swept sand of the ancient
beach.

What is your first name?

Iris.

Lovely.

The sun -swept sand of the ancient beach
traced a delicate shade of patterns in

the early morning.

Iris stretched herself on the cool sand.
I've decided to call the girl in this

piece Iris.

After you.

Thank you.

Iris. stretched herself on the cool
sand, and watched her lover cast his

into the anguished surf.

What is the enormous amount of creative
effort that goes into one of my

pictures? It goes without saying.

It seemed like only moments had passed.

When Frank yanked hard on his line, the
fish took the bait,

and he set the hook.

Motion pictures have an order, a
texture.

A smell.

An attack on the senses.

I beg your pardon. I couldn't help but
overhear what you just said.

Would you mind repeating that exactly?

Not at all. From where?

The part about motion pictures having a
smell. That was brilliant.

Thank you.

Yes. A motion picture must have an
order, a texture, a smell, an attack

on the senses. That's it exactly.

Rest assured that that will be in my
next novel. Excuse me.

Did you mind reading back to me what I
just dictated?

Iris stretched herself on the still,
cool sand and watched her lover cast his

line into the angry surf.

It seemed only moments had passed when
Frank yanked hard on the line. If we

should take and debate?

And he said so.

Let's continue this in my room.

Oh, uh, Mr. Boothman, uh, I must call my
supervisor. Tell her where I'm going.

I'll join you shortly.

All right. 102.

Yes?

This is Maltry. The Oriental girl,
Joyce.

She is with Griffin.

I see.

Then we must hurry.

Our intelligence informs us that Henry
Raymond Fulton is actually one Alexander

Mundy S .I .A.

Stay with him as long as possible
without arousing suspicion.

I have the other one here.

1 through 30. Very important.

Research.

Excuse me.

Hello? Al? Oh, hello, Morris.

Where in Spain are you? I'm up to my
typewriter, and you know what? You're

off... Hold it, hold it.

Al, I've been picked up by an agent.

One of ours or one of theirs?

Don't get around. We're in trouble.

We are not in trouble.

You are in trouble. I'm doing fine.

You remember, I'm the fellow that you
woke up in the middle of the night,

and broke.

Today, I'm a million -dollar writer.

Al, I hear typing in your room. That
must mean there's a girl there.

Mr. Fulton, I'm afraid your colleague
hasn't impressed upon you the

of the situation.

I have a pistol aimed at Noah Bain this
very moment.

We are both professionals.

Need I say more?

I'm listening. Good. The Griffin film.

We want it.

We know your background, Mr. Monty.

Thief. St. Jobel prison, highly skilled.

I'm sure that you will be successful
wherever you have failed.

Well, that didn't take you long, did it?

Professionals, Mr. Monty, cannot waste
time.

Now, I want the film within ten hours.

I'm down the hall.

Dial 143.

The name is Malche.

You will call me every hour on the hour
and report your progress.

Only ten hours.

Ten hours, Mr. Monday.

You will call me every hour of the hour.

And please, Mr. Monday, be successful.

Noah Bain is betting his life on you.

Hi, Redstone. I'd like to have you go
downstairs and buy two tickets for

tonight's festival ball.

Here you are.

Oh, Iris.

Do you have a date tonight?

No.

Well, I'd like to have you come with me.

The boat?

Yes, that's where the action is, right?

Well, yes, I imagine, but I have nothing
to wear.

I'll take care of that.

I'll need a tape recorder.

Battery operate.

Adios.

Adios.

Envy Raymond Falcon.

Mr. Griffin.

Come off it. The man's left, sir.

Duke, come in. Oh.

Thank you.

I don't know what came over me out there
a while ago. I should have known you

were the H .R. Fulton.

Sit down.

No, thank you. I just came here to
invite you to be my guest tonight at the

ball. You are coming.

Oh, of course. I'd be delighted.

Maybe we can have a little chat later
on. How about right now?

I'm a great admirer of your films. Thank
you. No, later.

And maybe we can touch on your new book.

You haven't sold it yet.

No. No, not yet. Good.

And your publisher now is? Is Eagle.
Eagle, of course.

If it's anything like your last one.

Naked Thunder.

Of course.

You like that one?

Must be. Thank you. Naked Thunder, of
course. Well, until tonight then, amigo.

Oh, what will you wear?

I thought I'd come as a thief.

And you?

A magician.

Wonderful. Well, I look forward to our
little chat.

I'll meet you at the bar.

There, my friend.

I hope it is not too tight.

A pity must I not pay him to have to
come to this.

Ignorant.

But such are the fortunes of our
profession.

Well?

Well, at least it's not over yet.

The two things I admire most, American
know -how and American optimism.

Oh.

Two tickets?

One tape recorder?

And 120 per status change.

You Russian girls are very efficient.

Russian?

Dasvidaniya.

Ah, yes.

On my mother's side.

Your mother?

Well, we live in Spain now.

Oh, good for you.

Well, get as much done as you can.

Concierge. Concierge, I'd like to have
you go out and buy a hoary costume.

Size 10.

Send it up to 102.

And a mask.

Thank you.

Yes? 143?

Yes. My first hour is up. Any progress?

Yes, I made contact with Griffin.

Good. He said he'd meet me in my room
later on.

When? He didn't say. Just told me to
stick around and that he would join me

later on.

Oh, very well.

How's Bane?

As long as you do not attempt any
tricks, he will be all right.

I hear your secretary's still typing.

No? That's right.

I figured I might as well keep her
working. Help convince Griffin I'm a

Very clever.

Can I speak with Bane?

No.

Call back in an hour.

I've been replaced by a machine.

You're in no danger.

I just ran a test on this to be sure
that it was working correctly.

Oh, you look lovely.

Would you fasten me?

Yes.

My pleasure.

How was that?

Where will we be?

Leaving soon?

Not necessarily. Well, I must call my
supervisor and tell her I will not

tonight.

This won't take long.

What did you do that?

I've got a little surprise.

Listen, kitten.

One. Four.

Three.

Now, isn't it a small world?

Our supervisors are roommates.

I've done nothing!

No, but your pal Malchek is up to his
extension in this little fair.

You're insane!

You blow the whistle, baby. You, me,
Malchak, and ten agents will be out of

permanently. Now, you want to do it the
easy way, or do you want me to have all

the fun?

As an Eagle Scout, I won two medals for
not tying.

Hello, Malchak.

Well?

Nothing yet.

We're still waiting here in my room for
a griffin. It sounds like your secretary

works late.

Yes, well, I was fortunate enough to
find a girl who was devoted to her work,

much so that she can't tear herself
away.

Very good.

I'll call you back in an hour.

Tell Mr. Bain that everything is under
control.

He wants me to tell you everything is
under control.

Very well.

I'll hear from you in an hour, Mr.
Mundy.

The time goes rather quickly.

Now?

Is there anything I can do to make you
more comfortable?

What? I am surprised at you.

You know, I don't like to look for
trouble, but I sense that our

deteriorating.

Sweet lips.

Just like a thief.

You seem to have a few tricks yourself.

I believe everyone here knows Mr. Henry
Raymond Fulton, the writer.

Henry, meet everyone.

Good evening.

What are you drinking, Henry?

Scotch and water.

Barman, Scotch and a splash on my bill
for Mr. Fulton.

Yes, film festivals are a wonderful
place to meet people, aren't they,

Yes, they are. You seem to have done
very well.

Oh, these. These are my fans, more or
less.

No, I meant people from different parts
of the world, from other walks of life.

Thank you.

Here's to your success, Lester.

Thank you.

And to yours in this highly competitive
world.

Thank you.

Will you be working with Mr. Griffin?

What we call a pregnant pause.

Do you want to chat now?

Of course.

Alright, come with me.

else up your sleeve? I am now going to
pull the bat out of the fire.

From one source, at a cost of $25, I
learned that Henry Raymond Fulton is

totally blind.

From another source, at a cost of $150,
I learned that you bear a remarkable

resemblance to Alexander Mundy, master
thief.

You should be flattered.

It seems you have an international
reputation.

Go on.

Oh, no, you go on. I've completed my
act.

The Red Turnips.

I want it. Oh, crazy.

So do a lot of other people.

Then you've heard all of the arguments.

And threats from governments yet.

And now a thief.

Astounding. But you're all the same to
me, Mr. Mundy.

I'm an artist. I make pictures.

For an audience.

My audience is the world.

People. I'll show my film when I'm ready
to show it and not before.

There's a principle at stake.

I see.

Well, what about money?

A lot of it. I've already had offers. I
think you know that.

I'll beat them.

It's a short film. One reel.

I doubt if any amount of money could
match its aesthetic value to me.

No? Let's try a few numbers and see.

Where is the film?

Oh, don't be concerned. It's stashed
away safe and sound.

Just for amusement.

What kind of money are we now
discussing?

$100 ,000.

You surprise me, Mr. Mundy. What makes
you think I would even consider such an

insignificant sum?

I caught your action at the roulette
tables, Lester.

You're losing.

I don't know how many markers you have
out.

But they're rougher and $100 ,000 seems
like a fair price considering that

there's a little squeeze on.

All right.

Cash. You'll get the money.

Where's the film?

Oh, no deal.

Not with a thief.

Money first.

If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Griffin, you're
selling information for which I have

already paid.

The location of the film, Mr. Griffin?

You've put me off too long.

It's time to settle.

Good morning, Mr. Griffin.

The location of that film, please.

You idiot.

I ain't called the other man.

If you hit him, then what?

Here, boy.

Be sure to lock her up.

Good, because...

Once a crook's around at this time of
the year.

Perhaps we both misjudged him.

A few more minutes.

Thank you.

Yes, Mr. Mundy. Is Noah all right?

For the moment.

Any progress?

Yes, I heard from Griffin.

He said he'd be delayed. He said he'd
come to my room shortly.

What was that?

What was what? It sounded like an
automobile horn.

A horn?

What would a horn be doing in my room?

Hello, Malchak?

Al. Hey, Noah.

You all right?

Just tell me where you are.

I'm in a phone booth.

I found the location of the film.

Well, give it to me quickly. I haven't
much time.

Cinematic Studios.

Campanella. Vault 616.

I'm on my way there now.

Well, if I'm still alive, I'll meet you
there.

and I'll check that I'm getting very
tired of living like this.

Well, Iris, my dear, there are great job
opportunities in Siberia.

First date?

Get in the car.

He can't be far.

Ah, buenas noches, Senor Bragg. I need a
car fast.

You need a fast car?

No, I mean I need a car quickly.

Ah, si, Senor.

Habla Paco.

It will be up front. Thank you. Can you
tell me how I can get

to Cinematic Studios?

Cinematic. El Cine.

Yes. Now.

We are here.

Why don't you and I have some dinner,
then dancing, and then my place?

I'm losing my patience, Mr. Monday.

All right.

Your place.

You took Griffin's card. You know where
the film is. Take me there.

We are there.

Caponier, of course.

Cinematic studio.

The film vault.

You know which one?

Sure. I also know the top 20 tunes
played by the DJs around the country.

The film is still mine. What now?

The film, naturally.

I have never done anything naturally in
my whole life.

I need your help, Mr. Monday.

Consequently, I prefer not to use this.
But I could. Believe me.

I believe you. Very well. I suggest you
overpower the guard, take the keys, and

together we'll open the film vault.

You haven't been in this business very
long, have you? I cannot see what's that

got to do with the problem.

What that's got to do with the problem
is that if we did that, we'd have two

dozen guards on us. And frankly, I'm
getting a little tired.

What do you suggest?

What's your name?

Joy Sung.

Why don't you quit the spy business?

I don't think you're quite cut out for
it.

And besides, we're almost lovers now.

A way.

Let him show us the way.

Ah, lie there quietly, Mr. Griffin.

Am I dying?

You seem to have a superficial flesh
wound in your arm.

Now, Sue, I'll have my lawyers breathing
down your neck in 24 hours. I want a

location of the film, Mr. Griffin. We've
paid you for it.

You still have another arm and two good
legs.

Cinematic Studios.

Vote 616.

616.

Darling, I will take that now. And this
time, I will not hesitate.

If you will now hand me the

film, please, slowly, carefully.

Well, maybe I was wrong.

Maybe you are in the right business
after all.

How did you get in here?

The guard assumed I was an actress,
reporting a little early.

You know, it's a funny thing. Every time
I kiss a Chinese girl, 15 minutes later

I feel like doing it again.

That's far enough.

Meow.

Noah, you all right?

Yeah, I think so. Come on.

Come on. Can you make it? Yeah, yeah,
yeah. Where's the film?

The film?

Right here.

Okay, let's get out of here.

You lose, girls.

Where is Malchek?

Malchek is over there, under enemy
weapons obsolete. And your buddy, your

is on stage 23.

Looks like we all lose. What's wrong?

There's no picture.

I don't understand.

It must have dissolved in the acid.
Can't see anything.

You're right.

Colored images.

Just blotches.

Congratulations. Your secret agents are
still secret.

You're right, Mr. Mundy. I wasn't meant
to be in this business.

I've had enough.

Yes, and maybe somebody needs a good
secretary.

Oh, do svidaniya, Al.

Such a sweet girl. No, Mr. Mundy?

Reminds me of my mother.

Goodbye.

Mother? Well, two more for our side.

You know you're better than the voice of
America.

What now?

Let's throw the film away.

No, wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Let's return it to Lester V. Griffin.

Wait a minute. Return it to Lester
Griffin? What about the $100 ,000 I

him? Well, uh, tell him the United
States government, uh...

appreciates his efforts and give him our
hearty thanks.

You're mean.

You should.

How did I know he was going to show the
film?

How did I know he was going to show the
film without looking at it? Don't cop

out. You are now responsible for that
man's career.

Shall we, huh? You promised if we
defected. Right.

A night we will never forget.

We'll have our own little festival.

Listen, Noah, don't let this spoil your
evening, Noah.

There's another great picture playing
down at the Bijou.

Good night.
