1
00:01:46,020 --> 00:01:50,700
All Jews must be inside Jew Street by sundown.

2
00:02:09,061 --> 00:02:11,776
Thank you, excellency. Always glad to serve you.

3
00:02:11,826 --> 00:02:14,728
Come on, get inside. This is six.

4
00:02:40,020 --> 00:02:44,520
Mayer Amschel Rothschild. Money changer. Dealer in coins.

5
00:02:49,580 --> 00:02:50,860
Mama.

6
00:02:51,469 --> 00:02:54,948
We're locking uptime. Money hasn't come yet.

7
00:02:54,970 --> 00:02:57,420
It's a long road from Hamburg.

8
00:02:57,422 --> 00:02:59,171
It'll be here in the morning.

9
00:02:59,196 --> 00:03:01,945
Yes, but if anything should happen.

10
00:03:02,030 --> 00:03:05,260
All that money, 10.000 gulden.

11
00:03:05,457 --> 00:03:06,941
So much this journey?

12
00:03:06,980 --> 00:03:09,880
7.000 in one lump from Prince Louis' ties in Egypt.

13
00:03:09,937 --> 00:03:13,756
And then all of the small sums, 10.000 at least.

14
00:03:15,140 --> 00:03:16,800
The roads are dangerous.

15
00:03:18,041 --> 00:03:20,354
Tomorrow morning it'll be here.

16
00:03:21,860 --> 00:03:25,340
We should be thankful, Mayer. Business is dirty.

17
00:03:25,640 --> 00:03:28,400
Nearly a thousand gulden since morning.

18
00:03:32,410 --> 00:03:37,704
- Mama, that agent, did you notice him?
- What?

19
00:03:38,170 --> 00:03:44,300
There he sat, sly and smiling, planning to rob this poor old Jew Rothschild.

20
00:03:44,353 --> 00:03:49,844
And here I was so innocent, a little child, a baby in fact.

21
00:03:49,900 --> 00:03:55,000
And there was that fine old clock, that his master had sent into bagging for.

22
00:03:55,220 --> 00:03:59,240
And when at last I let him have it for less money than it cost me,

23
00:03:59,292 --> 00:04:02,182
I could see in his eyes how pleased he was.

24
00:04:02,190 --> 00:04:04,600
That he got the better of this little baby.

25
00:04:04,700 --> 00:04:06,500
Sold it under cost?

26
00:04:07,220 --> 00:04:09,480
A sprat to catch a mackerel, mama.

27
00:04:09,590 --> 00:04:12,600
He thinks he's so clever, and I'm so stupid.

28
00:04:12,830 --> 00:04:15,200
Always make them think they're clever.

29
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,580
Mama, I've been robbed!

30
00:04:26,484 --> 00:04:29,698
Bad, a whole gulden. A dead loss, damn!

31
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,320
Are you sure? Sometimes they are only cracked.

32
00:04:35,492 --> 00:04:37,716
Right, Mayer, who gave it to you? Could it be that...

33
00:04:37,770 --> 00:04:42,060
That agent! And I gave him some wine, too. Some of the good wine.

34
00:04:42,180 --> 00:04:44,960
Mayer. He'll come again.

35
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,320
He'll come again. And then, mama...

36
00:04:50,410 --> 00:04:52,180
I catch my mackerel.

37
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,660
Well, no one can ever say you don't deal fairly with your customers, Mayer.

38
00:04:59,020 --> 00:05:01,140
It pays in the end, mama.

39
00:05:01,478 --> 00:05:04,034
Now finish your tasks, now I'll lay the supper.

40
00:05:04,530 --> 00:05:06,160
All right, mama.

41
00:05:09,180 --> 00:05:13,860
- The roast is almost done.
- Smells good.

42
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,180
Looks good too.

43
00:05:25,620 --> 00:05:27,520
Mama, quick. It's Nathan.

44
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,340
Mama, the tax collector.

45
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,590
Papa, the tax collector. He's down on the street.

46
00:05:38,840 --> 00:05:40,600
The tax collector, boys!

47
00:05:47,940 --> 00:05:50,380
- Mama, put away the silver.
- I have.

48
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,920
Don't run away. What do you know about?

49
00:06:08,250 --> 00:06:09,760
Take those hats off!

50
00:06:10,620 --> 00:06:11,980
- Here, mama.
- Yes.

51
00:06:30,620 --> 00:06:31,880
Hurry up, Carl.

52
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,320
Come up, James. Open the fire case.

53
00:06:35,180 --> 00:06:39,580
- Remember, no deal for the last five days, understand?
- Yes, father.

54
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,100
Are you hungry?

55
00:06:41,470 --> 00:06:43,680
- Not so very.
- Then look hungry.

56
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,800
Amschel, Solomon, you remain below.

57
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,820
Mama, hide the roast.

58
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,460
All right, we'll take the Rothschild next.

59
00:07:20,660 --> 00:07:24,640
Mama, take your sewings there. Nathan, by me.

60
00:07:25,030 --> 00:07:27,680
Nathan, take your hands out of your pockets.

61
00:07:30,060 --> 00:07:31,640
Open up, Jew!

62
00:07:39,660 --> 00:07:42,180
- Who is it Nathan?
- Mayer Rothschild.

63
00:07:42,619 --> 00:07:45,254
Why, it's my good friend, the tax collector.

64
00:07:45,260 --> 00:07:46,900
Bring out your account book.

65
00:07:46,950 --> 00:07:48,280
Certainly, sir.

66
00:07:48,330 --> 00:07:50,880
Here it is, I was just looking over it.

67
00:07:51,478 --> 00:07:54,982
Things are very bad, I was saying to my poor wife.

68
00:07:55,050 --> 00:07:58,680
Gudula, this is our friend, the tax collector.

69
00:07:59,660 --> 00:08:02,220
Never have I known such a bad month.

70
00:08:02,260 --> 00:08:05,600
For five days not one gulden have I seen.

71
00:08:05,780 --> 00:08:09,140
Customers come, yes, but they don't buy.

72
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:14,220
No one's traveling these days, so my exchange business is worse than nothing.

73
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,440
- I shall soon starve.
- Starve, huh?

74
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,660
Something smells good.

75
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,480
One of our neighbors must be having a roast.

76
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,260
Close the window, mama.

77
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:26,900
What do you take me for?

78
00:08:27,380 --> 00:08:29,660
Now bring out the real books.

79
00:08:29,660 --> 00:08:33,380
Real books? Why, excellency, I don't understand what you mean.

80
00:08:33,380 --> 00:08:36,560
Rothschild, you are doing more business than any Jew in Jew Street.

81
00:08:36,560 --> 00:08:38,740
You're gonna pay 20.000 gulden.

82
00:08:38,740 --> 00:08:40,100
20.000!

83
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,580
A count of the big merchants in the city doesn't pay as much as that.

84
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,700
That's another matter, he's outside the ghetto. He's not a Jew.

85
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,780
You're going to kill me this instant.

86
00:08:48,780 --> 00:08:50,880
I could barely raise a thousand gulden.

87
00:08:50,940 --> 00:08:52,940
Upstairs, that's the house.

88
00:08:54,340 --> 00:08:55,740
Hold the badger, pal.

89
00:09:03,660 --> 00:09:07,380
Well, I might perhaps raise 2.000 gulden.

90
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:10,380
Very interesting.

91
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:15,080
Oh, that. Nathan, lift up the trip door for the gentleman.

92
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,000
They're just some old stock.

93
00:09:19,100 --> 00:09:23,040
We have a little wine down there, not very good wine I'm afraid.

94
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,380
Good wine costs money.

95
00:09:24,380 --> 00:09:27,960
But no account books, no gold, no jewels I suppose.

96
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:32,060
Jewels, I had to give up dealing in jewels long ago.

97
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,280
It needs capital.

98
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,000
- Should I lead the way?
- You follow, at a distance.

99
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:48,860
Stand up, Jew boys!

100
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:12,860
Wine!

101
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,960
- Fill up a cup!
- But that's green excellency.
- Do as I say.

102
00:10:19,580 --> 00:10:22,280
It had wine in it after all!

103
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,720
Yes, sir. That's what we drink.

104
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,080
But there's some here, that papa keeps for his special customers.

105
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:36,960
Won't your excellency try it?

106
00:10:51,540 --> 00:10:54,380
You old fox. It's good.

107
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,640
Your excellency, there's his honor.

108
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,800
Rothschild, apparently you've been telling me the truth.

109
00:10:59,820 --> 00:11:02,160
- So you know what I'm going to do?
- No, excellency.

110
00:11:02,220 --> 00:11:05,940
I'm going to charge you 20.000 gulden, just the same.

111
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,580
But I can't do it.

112
00:11:07,660 --> 00:11:10,100
There's not that much money in the whole ghetto.

113
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:11,220
Rothschild.

114
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:17,520
You would like to pay only 2.000 gulden again, wouldn't you?

115
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,180
Yes, excellency.

116
00:11:32,020 --> 00:11:37,380
Now what would it be worth to me, if I put you down for 2.000 this time.

117
00:11:38,380 --> 00:11:42,700
Very handsome present for your excellency, say a thousand gulden.

118
00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:44,580
Talk sense, Rothschild.

119
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,260
I want 10.000.

120
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,480
- Would you leave me and my family pennies?
- With a great deal of pleasure.

121
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:51,520
Come now.

122
00:11:51,560 --> 00:11:57,500
Well, perhaps a 3.000 gulden. But that's the limit, the actual limit.

123
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,100
I'll take 6.000.

124
00:12:03,780 --> 00:12:05,680
Well, make it 5.000.

125
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,200
Alright, have it ready tomorrow. I'll call.

126
00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:19,740
And if any of you breathe a word, I'll have your house burned to the ground.

127
00:12:27,580 --> 00:12:29,760
Boys, you did well.

128
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,020
Nathan, you're a smart lad.

129
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,200
That wine, mama, you should have seen him.

130
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,420
And after all, a 5.000 gulden isn't as bad as it might have been.

131
00:12:39,740 --> 00:12:43,800
But it is bad to have to pay away 5.000 gulden.

132
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,040
Not as bad as having to pay away 20.000, father.

133
00:12:50,060 --> 00:12:53,620
Six o'clock. All Jews inside.

134
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,660
- Should I go after him?
- Oh, let him go.

135
00:13:05,140 --> 00:13:06,880
Mr. Rothschild!

136
00:13:09,100 --> 00:13:10,080
Mr. Rothschild!

137
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:10,980
What's the matter?

138
00:13:11,060 --> 00:13:13,140
The man who's bringing your money from Hamburg

139
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,780
has been waylaid by the tax agents outside the city.

140
00:13:15,780 --> 00:13:17,520
Their hunting was for the money of Jew Street.

141
00:13:17,580 --> 00:13:19,760
They might have killed him, but he got away.

142
00:13:19,820 --> 00:13:22,800
- With the money?
- No, they got it, Mr. Rothschild.

143
00:13:22,860 --> 00:13:24,540
- All of it?
- Yes, all of it.

144
00:13:27,420 --> 00:13:30,900
10.000 gulden, all money, that we worked for.

145
00:13:31,020 --> 00:13:35,500
- Why doesn't your majesty take them dead?
- Papa, don't get excited, its bad for you.

146
00:13:35,540 --> 00:13:37,860
You are young. Your life is before you.

147
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:38,900
You got to fight.

148
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,820
Fight for yourselves, fight for our people.

149
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,640
Mama, I had to cheat the tax collector before my own children.

150
00:13:46,680 --> 00:13:48,920
Do you think I want to do that?

151
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,780
I live honestly, I trade honestly.

152
00:13:51,780 --> 00:13:54,790
I want to be honest with them. But they won't let us.

153
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,200
We are Jews, taxed to death.

154
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,160
Forbidden to learn a trade, forbidden to own land.

155
00:14:00,180 --> 00:14:03,220
They keep us in chains. They send men here to rob us.

156
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,180
So work and strive for money.

157
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:06,460
Money is power.

158
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,120
Money is the only weapon that the Jew has to defend himself with.

159
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,540
Come, he wants to speak with you. All of you.

160
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,700
We are here papa. All of us.

161
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:41,940
My sons.

162
00:14:42,660 --> 00:14:47,260
When I go I, leave you in your mama's care.

163
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,960
She is wise.

164
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,800
How wiser than I, and good.

165
00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:00,900
Do always as she says, and you will grow rich.

166
00:15:03,460 --> 00:15:04,740
Come closer.

167
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,220
Much money is lost

168
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:15,640
for sending gold by coach, from one country to another.

169
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,080
In times of war to seize by the enemy.

170
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,240
In times of peace by thieves.

171
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,500
You are five brothers.

172
00:15:24,540 --> 00:15:29,520
I want you each to start a banking business in a different country.

173
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:35,160
One to go and open a house in Paris, one in Vienna, one in London.

174
00:15:35,620 --> 00:15:38,420
Choose the most important cities.

175
00:15:38,460 --> 00:15:41,780
So, that when money is to be sent

176
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,700
from here, to London, ever say,

177
00:15:45,020 --> 00:15:48,940
you won't have to risk life and gold.

178
00:15:49,140 --> 00:15:51,780
Amschel, here in Frankfurt,

179
00:15:51,780 --> 00:15:55,440
will just send a letter to Nathan in London,

180
00:15:55,580 --> 00:15:58,160
saying I need so and so,

181
00:15:58,500 --> 00:16:03,840
and that will be offset by loans from London to Frankfurt.

182
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,520
- Understand?
- Yes, father.

183
00:16:07,060 --> 00:16:11,060
In your day, there'll be many wars in Europe.

184
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,620
And nations that will have money to transport,

185
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,880
will come to the Rothschilds, because it will be safe.

186
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:20,840
Papa, you musn't talk anymore. The doctor...

187
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,840
I'm giving advice to our sons, mama.

188
00:16:23,900 --> 00:16:26,160
And that the doctor cannot give.

189
00:16:27,700 --> 00:16:32,280
Remember, unity is strength.

190
00:16:32,780 --> 00:16:36,280
All your lives you must stand by one another.

191
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,800
No one brother must be allowed to fail,

192
00:16:40,060 --> 00:16:42,560
while another brother succeeds.

193
00:16:42,980 --> 00:16:46,480
Now, five banking houses may cover Europe.

194
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:53,040
But you will be one firm, one family. The Rothschilds.

195
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,040
Who work always together.

196
00:16:56,180 --> 00:16:58,840
That would be your power.

197
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:05,480
And when that power comes, remember the ghetto.

198
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:10,280
I shall be here, I shall never leave the house where they were all born.

199
00:17:10,340 --> 00:17:12,760
Remember this before all,

200
00:17:13,100 --> 00:17:18,920
that neither business, nor power, nor all the gold in Europe

201
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,340
will bring you happiness, until we, our people,

202
00:17:23,820 --> 00:17:28,460
have equality, respect, dignity.

203
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:34,580
And trade with dignity, or live with dignity,

204
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,880
to walk in a world, with dignity.

205
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,800
32 years later, the five sons of the Rothschilds

206
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:57,700
had established their banking houses in the five capitals of Europe.

207
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,560
And in the same year, the Grande Armée of Napoleon

208
00:18:04,660 --> 00:18:08,980
overran Europe and threatened the peace of the world.

209
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,680
Rothschild and sons, bankers, Vienna

210
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,780
If Napoleon is to beaten in the east,

211
00:18:26,820 --> 00:18:30,040
we must have 15 million florins immediately.

212
00:18:30,100 --> 00:18:33,500
- And more later.
- I think it can be done, prince Metternich.

213
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,640
But I shall have to consult with my brother Nathan in London.

214
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,760
Come Solomon, can't you decide now?

215
00:18:38,820 --> 00:18:42,060
Your highness is aware that the Rothschilds work as a family.

216
00:18:42,120 --> 00:18:44,020
And we've made Nathan our head.

217
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,500
Rothschild and sons, bankers. Naples.

218
00:18:51,900 --> 00:18:55,040
Mr. Rothschild, there can be no peace in Europe,

219
00:18:55,060 --> 00:18:58,320
as long as Napoleon controls Italy.

220
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,920
16 million ducats, as soon as possible.

221
00:19:01,980 --> 00:19:04,600
If your highness will keep the utmost secrecy,

222
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,620
I will endeavor to obtain the consent of my brothers.

223
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,200
Rothschild and sons, bankers. Paris.

224
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,700
You must realize, Monsieur Talleyrand,

225
00:19:17,780 --> 00:19:22,440
how difficult it is for the Paris House of Rothschild to help the Allies against Napoleon.

226
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,440
My dear Mr. James, I will be as secret as the grave.

227
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,380
But we must have 50 million francs.

228
00:19:31,020 --> 00:19:34,300
Rothschild and sons, bankers. Frankfurt.

229
00:19:36,900 --> 00:19:40,240
Your visit honors our House, count Ledrantz.

230
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,620
I'm quite aware of that, Amschel Rothschild.

231
00:19:42,660 --> 00:19:44,500
But there is no one to hear of it.

232
00:19:46,140 --> 00:19:48,620
Only necessity brings me here.

233
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,460
The armies of Napoleon are already in Prussia.

234
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,840
We've gotta have five million gulden, by a month.

235
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,560
- I will consult my brother.
- That's nonsense.

236
00:19:58,580 --> 00:20:01,000
It is an unbreakable rule, your excellency.

237
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,140
The House of Rothschild never participates into deals of this importance,

238
00:20:05,180 --> 00:20:07,700
without the approval of all the partners.

239
00:20:07,700 --> 00:20:09,360
But that is impossible,

240
00:20:09,420 --> 00:20:13,300
my brother Nathan in London is permitted to make a decision.

241
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,180
Rothschild and sons, bankers. London.

242
00:20:21,260 --> 00:20:25,380
Mr. Nathan, it may be that just one more loan will carry us to victory.

243
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,840
You've been most generous, you and your brothers too.

244
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,660
And I can assure you, sir, that his majesty fully realizes,

245
00:20:31,660 --> 00:20:34,140
that the House of Rothschild has already contributed

246
00:20:34,140 --> 00:20:37,300
ten times as much as any other banking house in Europe.

247
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,460
Captain Fitzroy arrived this morning from Wellington's headquarters.

248
00:20:41,580 --> 00:20:45,030
And he's told me how much the general appreciates what you've done.

249
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,980
Lord Wellington's language on the battlefield can't be repeated, sir.

250
00:20:50,140 --> 00:20:54,560
but I've heard him declare that he wouldn't swap any one of those five Rothschilds,

251
00:20:54,620 --> 00:20:58,040
for any five of Napoleon's brigades.

252
00:20:58,100 --> 00:21:01,420
Now I tell the Prime Minister you agree to one more loan.

253
00:21:01,860 --> 00:21:05,820
You realize gentlemen that the Allies are driving errands out throughout Europe.

254
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,080
- It's money that wins wars.
- It's money that makes wars.

255
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,480
For 5 million pounds we can hold Napoleon at bay.

256
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:17,340
Mr. Herries, tell the Prime Minister I declined to raise 5 million pounds,

257
00:21:17,380 --> 00:21:19,540
to keep the Allies fighting Napoleon.

258
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:20,640
I'm sorry.

259
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:22,980
But you can tell Lord Wellington,

260
00:21:22,980 --> 00:21:27,200
that the five Rothschilds will let him have 10 million,

261
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,680
if he'll guarantee to smash Napoleon.

262
00:21:34,420 --> 00:21:35,780
Excuse my hat, sir.

263
00:21:41,980 --> 00:21:47,420
And when, eventually, Napoleon was defeated and exiled to the Island of Elba,

264
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,420
England honored his conqueror, the Duke of Wellington.

265
00:22:00,020 --> 00:22:02,680
The Lords and gentlemen,

266
00:22:03,860 --> 00:22:08,280
once more England is indebted to her greatest soldier.

267
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:13,020
It is my privilege as Prime Minister to thank him,

268
00:22:13,020 --> 00:22:14,840
on behalf of England,

269
00:22:14,940 --> 00:22:17,480
for his glorious achievement.

270
00:22:17,540 --> 00:22:20,400
We rejoice at your safe return.

271
00:22:21,420 --> 00:22:25,120
My Lords and gentlemen, charge your glasses.

272
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,620
I give you a toast.

273
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,920
His grace, the duke of Wellington.

274
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,480
Well, that's over.

275
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,060
- Empty.
- We've got some snuff here.

276
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,520
May I see sir Amschel, please.

277
00:22:58,940 --> 00:22:59,940
Herries.

278
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,300
Why wasn't Rothschild here?

279
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,540
- Now, some feeling.
- Was me asked?

280
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,840
Well, no, your grace. Some of these people...

281
00:23:09,860 --> 00:23:12,600
Wasn't the man who paid for these wars important enough?

282
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,580
It wasn't a question of importance, it was...

283
00:23:14,620 --> 00:23:17,060
Well, he can't come here, I suppose we can still go there.

284
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,280
- Hey Fitz.
- Yes, sir.

285
00:23:19,300 --> 00:23:22,020
Just as soon as I can get away, we're going to call our Nathan Rothschild.

286
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,200
You order him here.

287
00:23:23,260 --> 00:23:25,000
Light, I call it.

288
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,640
More snuff.

289
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,060
Do you know where the old boy lives?

290
00:23:30,120 --> 00:23:31,580
Very well indeed, sir.

291
00:23:35,060 --> 00:23:37,540
I'd forgotten about that daughter of his.

292
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,760
- Darling.
- No, I'm not sorry. Not in the least.

293
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:51,840
Neither am I.

294
00:23:52,340 --> 00:23:53,760
Just startled.

295
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,840
I've been trying to tell for a long time.

296
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:58,780
- I've wanted to kiss you.
- Yes, I know that.

297
00:23:59,020 --> 00:24:01,840
But when it came, it was so sudden, it rather frightened me.

298
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:02,960
Frightened?

299
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,500
The captain of the guard is to protect you.

300
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,620
The captain of the guard is a very dangerous person.

301
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,200
Only to his rivals.

302
00:24:11,260 --> 00:24:13,440
You know, you're very conceited, young man.

303
00:24:13,700 --> 00:24:15,960
You haven't even asked me if I loved you.

304
00:24:15,980 --> 00:24:17,140
Don't you?

305
00:24:18,260 --> 00:24:23,100
Yes I do. I love you more than anything else in the world.

306
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,300
And then tonight, after I talk to Duke in the bay,

307
00:24:33,580 --> 00:24:35,240
I'm calling your father,

308
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,520
My speech to him is all ready.

309
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,700
I rehearsed it not less than a thousand times.

310
00:24:41,820 --> 00:24:45,780
The trees at night, the guns, even the horses,

311
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,080
I haven't gotten a refusal yet.

312
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,620
I'm afraid it's not as simple as that.

313
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,440
Some of those horses were pretty difficult customers.

314
00:24:54,540 --> 00:24:58,240
It's no use, darling. You're just dodging the real reason.

315
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,480
You're being sweet and thoughtful again.

316
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,960
But you're not making me forget that you're gentile and I'm a Jewess.

317
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,380
- Think of the shock to our families.
- There's no longer a family matter.

318
00:25:09,500 --> 00:25:10,720
It's Fitz and Julie.

319
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,140
Us, us, us...

320
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,820
I've had that clouded me heels all day.

321
00:25:27,180 --> 00:25:31,560
If they had any sense, it's you lead me following around, not me.

322
00:25:31,620 --> 00:25:36,200
Oh, we Rothschilds, and had just as big crowds following at our heels in Frankfurt.

323
00:25:36,220 --> 00:25:40,180
- But not with cheers.
- Or a lot of cheer for you, gladly.

324
00:25:40,180 --> 00:25:45,440
And I hope one day, Europe will realize she owes you something more than money.

325
00:25:45,460 --> 00:25:47,800
Well, my father was a man of peace.

326
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,800
He told us never to loan money to make wars, always to end them.

327
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,220
And that's been our principle.

328
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,680
Everybody knows that, and respects you for it.

329
00:25:55,740 --> 00:25:59,220
No, your grace, they don't know it and they don't respect us.

330
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,100
Our bankers are jealous of us,

331
00:26:01,180 --> 00:26:03,880
the man in the street thinks we're just sherlocks.

332
00:26:03,980 --> 00:26:08,400
And Europe hides its head for shame, because it borrows from the Jews.

333
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:13,140
I suppose you know it's that Prussian fellow, count Ledrantz, that is responsible for that.

334
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,780
I know. He hates me and all my race.

335
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:20,280
He's a proper jackass, Rothschild. And he ought to be hanged.

336
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:25,220
I must admit that the same happy thought has occurred to me more than once.

337
00:26:26,740 --> 00:26:29,880
You know it's a danger having a man like that in authority.

338
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:34,300
- Always making enemies.
- That's the danger, they may need us again.

339
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:36,240
What do you mean?

340
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,300
Well, perhaps you're not out of the woods yet.

341
00:26:38,380 --> 00:26:40,660
Why, Napoleon's scotched.

342
00:26:40,700 --> 00:26:43,920
Napoleon's in exile. But he's not dead.

343
00:26:44,260 --> 00:26:46,980
As good as dead, Rothschild. As good as dead.

344
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,220
Perhaps.

345
00:26:50,100 --> 00:26:52,460
Another brandy, your grace.

346
00:26:52,500 --> 00:26:57,680
I often thought it would have saved a lot of trouble, if Napoleon had been born an Englishman.

347
00:26:59,740 --> 00:27:01,220
Where would I be then?

348
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,240
Right, his commanding officer of course.

349
00:27:05,180 --> 00:27:06,260
Thank you.

350
00:27:07,260 --> 00:27:09,140
Sound brandy you've got here, Rothschild.

351
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:10,460
To the peace of Europe.

352
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,520
Well, I'm a soldier. But I'll drink to that.

353
00:27:15,940 --> 00:27:17,420
Rothschild.

354
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,380
A little secret, mind you?

355
00:27:20,460 --> 00:27:23,360
I oughtn't to tell you this, but I just heard this morning

356
00:27:23,420 --> 00:27:26,880
that they are going to float a big loan to put France on her feet.

357
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,760
An enormous loan, the biggest thing ever issued.

358
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,720
- Yes.
- Well, they've got to do something.

359
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,860
France had had 20 years of war, and the whole country is torn up.

360
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,600
But now they've got peace.

361
00:27:36,660 --> 00:27:40,000
They're going to get together, the five Allied powers, and to help her out.

362
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,860
And the banking house that floats this loan,

363
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,000
will at once become the most powerful in Europe.

364
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,940
- Its prestige will be enormous.
- That's it.

365
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,420
Now's your chance.

366
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,340
Your grace, I can't sufficiently thank you for this information.

367
00:27:54,380 --> 00:27:56,440
Mind you, it's a dark secret.

368
00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,060
But it serves the chuckleheads right for telling me.

369
00:28:00,100 --> 00:28:02,620
They ought to know by now I can't keep a secret.

370
00:28:02,700 --> 00:28:06,460
- Send a message to Mr. Roy, and ask him to come to be here at once.
- Yes, sir.

371
00:28:07,060 --> 00:28:11,700
- We'll drink to the house that floats the new French loan.
- To the House of Rothschild.

372
00:28:14,180 --> 00:28:16,180
And its greatest mentor.

373
00:28:16,940 --> 00:28:18,560
There you are.

374
00:28:19,120 --> 00:28:21,420
- Miss Julie.
- Your grace.

375
00:28:21,980 --> 00:28:25,340
Mrs. Rothschild, you've got to watch this young rooster.

376
00:28:25,380 --> 00:28:29,540
I'm beginning to understand now why you were always asking for leave to return to London.

377
00:28:29,620 --> 00:28:32,180
Now that you do understand, I trust you let him come more often.

378
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,420
- It's against the regulations.
- I only saw Julie five times.

379
00:28:35,420 --> 00:28:38,300
And once, when you sent him to the dispatches of the Prime Minister,

380
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,700
Julie was waiting for him, the corner of Downing Street.

381
00:28:40,740 --> 00:28:44,400
- That I hope it isn't against the regulations, your grace.
- Not if he didn't speak to you.

382
00:28:44,420 --> 00:28:46,640
We didn't think you knew about that, Nathan.

383
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,780
I'm afraid it's time to go, your grace.

384
00:28:48,820 --> 00:28:51,600
You can't fox this man, he's a magician.

385
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,460
There's no question about that.

386
00:28:53,460 --> 00:28:55,740
Oh, Rothschild.

387
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,700
I've been told you knew about Napoleon's abdication,

388
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,880
two days before the War Office did.

389
00:29:00,980 --> 00:29:01,860
Is that true?

390
00:29:01,900 --> 00:29:04,330
Yes. But then the War Office never knows anything

391
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,180
for two days after everybody else knows it.

392
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,700
So then they take two more days taking it over.

393
00:29:09,260 --> 00:29:10,580
But how did you do it?

394
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,800
They say Indians get things by putting their ears to the ground,

395
00:29:13,860 --> 00:29:15,560
but you are not an Indian, are you?

396
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,480
No. Just plain Jerusalem, with a heart of gold.

397
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,740
Well, I know something about sending dispatches.

398
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:24,800
My man Fitzroy here is the best at that.

399
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,040
But if I had 20 Fitzes I couldn't do it in that time.

400
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,960
You knew about Napoleon's abdication almost as soon as it happened.

401
00:29:32,020 --> 00:29:34,020
How the deuce did you do it?

402
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,880
A little bird whispered in my ear.

403
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,460
Oh, you don't intend to tell me.

404
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,300
I don't blame you.

405
00:29:43,260 --> 00:29:47,620
Fitz, we better go before he makes us disappear like a rabbit in a hat.

406
00:29:47,700 --> 00:29:50,580
Mrs. Rothschild, you've a charm in a home.

407
00:29:51,420 --> 00:29:53,740
- And a charming daughter.
- Your grace.

408
00:29:55,020 --> 00:29:58,940
- I hope that cash crowds corner.
- Thank you.

409
00:30:01,220 --> 00:30:02,660
Are they still there?

410
00:30:05,140 --> 00:30:07,660
And this is the man who faced the grand Army.

411
00:30:08,340 --> 00:30:10,120
- Fitzroy.
- Yes, sir.

412
00:30:10,260 --> 00:30:12,220
Writing before the charge always.

413
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,560
There's military tactics for you. There's a young man who'll be a general someday.

414
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:17,540
Thank you.

415
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:18,960
Goodbye, Rothschild.

416
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,620
- And remember, it's a dark secret.
- A thousand thanks, your grace.

417
00:30:30,900 --> 00:30:32,520
There he goes.

418
00:30:32,940 --> 00:30:36,500
Longing for the peace and the query of the battlefield.

419
00:30:36,500 --> 00:30:37,620
Yes, sir.

420
00:30:38,260 --> 00:30:39,180
Mom.

421
00:30:40,100 --> 00:30:42,260
Mom, I have to be very happy of it.

422
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,260
- I'm not quite...
- What is it, dear?

423
00:30:46,220 --> 00:30:49,740
Fitz says it's nobody's business but ours, just his and mine.

424
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,000
But it's this wretched family I'm thinking of.

425
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,740
You know mother, nearly all of his answer duchesses and countesses.

426
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,120
Oh I'm so afraid they'll turn up their noses.

427
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,100
He doesn't addict to our money, I hope.

428
00:30:59,110 --> 00:31:01,220
No, he says he's willing to overlook that.

429
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:02,560
Oh, I'm glad to hear that.

430
00:31:02,580 --> 00:31:04,880
Father, please don't think of Fitz like that.

431
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,640
Please don't, you're hurting her feelings.

432
00:31:07,700 --> 00:31:10,380
- Isn't that rather cruel?
- Oh no, it's my fault.

433
00:31:10,580 --> 00:31:13,260
I never told father I really care as much as I do.

434
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,760
And you didn't either of you think I knew.

435
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:21,140
We businessmen are not supposed to notice unimportant things like daughters and wives.

436
00:31:21,220 --> 00:31:24,400
- You should know better than, Hannah.
- Well, I knew she loved him.

437
00:31:24,460 --> 00:31:27,260
But we thought we'd tell you when you got to know him better.

438
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,560
Julie, you know the tradition of our family?

439
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,500
A Rothschild to marry a Rothschild.

440
00:31:32,540 --> 00:31:35,380
- But I wasn't a Rothschild, Nathan.
- No.

441
00:31:35,380 --> 00:31:38,720
But you were Hannah. And you are one of our race.

442
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:42,160
That's what frightens me, mom. These dreadful prejudices.

443
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,860
Could we bear it? Fitz bears it.

444
00:31:46,060 --> 00:31:50,140
I won't pretend Julie, that I wouldn't rather you married one of your own people.

445
00:31:50,140 --> 00:31:51,900
It's a cruel barrier.

446
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:57,900
Yes. But the world's changed a bit, especially in England.

447
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:03,420
There's no Jew Street here, and they're lifting other chains from us, too.

448
00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:07,580
- So, perhaps...
- Oh no, don't say perhaps, say yes.

449
00:32:07,940 --> 00:32:09,440
What do you think, Hannah?

450
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,680
I think girls should be allowed to make their own choice.

451
00:32:12,860 --> 00:32:14,300
I'm not sure that I agree with you.

452
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:15,540
Oh, but this girl, father.

453
00:32:15,580 --> 00:32:20,100
Well, it's about the first time that I've known a Rothschild to make a bad bargain.

454
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,820
You are a Rothschild, and the Duke of Wellington has told me

455
00:32:23,860 --> 00:32:26,880
that the Rothschilds did a great deal for Europe during the war.

456
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,480
Now what have your Fitzroy's done? Nothing.

457
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,320
They are on repeatedly getting leave of absence from duty,

458
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,760
and showing unaccountable interest in awkings.

459
00:32:34,790 --> 00:32:36,340
And a remarkable taste in women.

460
00:32:36,380 --> 00:32:39,080
That doesn't show strength of character. Any fool could fall in love with you.

461
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,120
- But not any fool could get your consent.
- He hasn't tried yet.
- But he will.

462
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:43,900
When he does, you'll see him?

463
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:48,860
- Oh, you darling!
- You look rather positively shocked.

464
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,080
- Don't go, Julie.
- But I must, I'm engaged.

465
00:32:51,140 --> 00:32:52,300
Where are you going Julie?

466
00:32:52,340 --> 00:32:55,440
I'm going after the orchid house. Look at the orchids.

467
00:32:57,500 --> 00:32:58,340
Roy.

468
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,600
I sent for you, because I have tremendous news.

469
00:33:02,980 --> 00:33:07,160
This message, must go to each of my brothers, at once.

470
00:33:08,260 --> 00:33:10,820
I want his grace call our magic.

471
00:33:14,380 --> 00:33:15,740
Great news.

472
00:33:17,380 --> 00:33:19,060
Yes, indeed.

473
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:31,760
Let me have the earliest possible dates on which all private loans can be recalled.

474
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,140
Give instructions to France, no more private loans, until further notice.

475
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,020
I must know at once the exact extent of our available caveats.

476
00:33:38,020 --> 00:33:42,160
The most important deal the House of Rothschild has ever attempted.

477
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,220
French loan decision today.

478
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,360
Oh, let me look at you.

479
00:34:01,580 --> 00:34:03,380
Oh, you really look so very nice.

480
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,700
I'm sure I don't know how they can refuse you anything you ask.

481
00:34:05,780 --> 00:34:08,280
I'm not depending entirely on my profile, here.

482
00:34:08,380 --> 00:34:10,060
- Where's my hat?
- Oh, the carriage doesn't come yet.

483
00:34:10,100 --> 00:34:10,740
I'll take a hat.

484
00:34:10,740 --> 00:34:13,760
That's what I like to do. It always makes me feel so independent.

485
00:34:13,820 --> 00:34:16,100
Sure you won't let me put a little perfume on your handkerchief?

486
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:17,080
I'm quite sure, yes.

487
00:34:17,140 --> 00:34:22,000
You're so calm. Aren't you excited at all about getting this great loan? Who do there?

488
00:34:22,060 --> 00:34:25,760
Representatives of all the big banking houses in Europe, bearing over their cost.

489
00:34:25,780 --> 00:34:28,880
- And the ministers of the countries interested, I suppose.
- I suppose so.

490
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,320
Ledrantz representing Prussia, Metternich from Austria, and the rest of it.

491
00:34:32,340 --> 00:34:35,780
Still you feel British also, don't you?
Sure at half of it, anyhow.

492
00:34:35,820 --> 00:34:38,920
I have private information that ours was the best bid.

493
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:44,000
The largest loan in history. You know it's the proudest day of your life.

494
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:47,780
The proudest day of my life happened 30 years ago.

495
00:34:48,500 --> 00:34:51,400
- I shan't do an easy breath.
- Don't worry.

496
00:34:51,500 --> 00:34:56,480
When I say that no other banking house in Europe can match our bid, I'm not guessing, I know.

497
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,680
- And now where's my hat?
- On your head, I believe.

498
00:34:58,740 --> 00:35:01,140
- Where it should be.
- Where it shouldn't be in the ladies presence.

499
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:02,680
I beg your pardon.

500
00:35:04,460 --> 00:35:07,080
To Downing Street and Victory.

501
00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:10,700
- Good bye.
- Good luck!

502
00:35:18,420 --> 00:35:19,400
Thank your tip.

503
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:24,040
But, Mr. Rothschild, even your daughter Mrs. Julie pays me more than this.

504
00:35:24,260 --> 00:35:26,680
Mrs. Julie has a very rich father, I haven't.

505
00:35:32,620 --> 00:35:34,400
- Mr. Gemula.
- Mr. Rothschild.

506
00:35:34,420 --> 00:35:36,100
- How do you do?
- Very well, sir.

507
00:35:36,140 --> 00:35:37,760
How are you, Rothschild?

508
00:35:37,820 --> 00:35:41,940
- Am I too early or too late?
- Early, they're still in the conference room.

509
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,060
My Lords and gentlemen,

510
00:35:59,060 --> 00:36:00,620
- Your hat.
- Oh.

511
00:36:01,540 --> 00:36:03,240
Thank you Mr. Baring.

512
00:36:05,020 --> 00:36:06,870
The meeting is called to order.

513
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:08,540
Gentlemen.

514
00:36:08,860 --> 00:36:13,940
Bids for a French loan for 450 million francs to be received and recorded.

515
00:36:14,420 --> 00:36:18,260
Offers to take all or a part of the issue of bonds.

516
00:36:18,340 --> 00:36:22,100
The greatest single issue in the history of European finance,

517
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,480
were received from the following banking houses.

518
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:31,400
J. Lafitte and company, Paris. Gemula, Vienna. Hope, London.

519
00:36:31,460 --> 00:36:36,000
Berton de Lis, Madrid. Baring and company, London.

520
00:36:36,100 --> 00:36:39,880
It is the decision of the conference that the highest authoritative bid

521
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,160
is that of Baring and company, London.

522
00:36:42,940 --> 00:36:47,040
They will be awarded three quarters of the issue, at 71.

523
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,260
- There be no further...
- But you're mistaken, Mr. Herries, there is.

524
00:36:51,300 --> 00:36:53,020
Mr. Nathan Rothschild.

525
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,460
I'm compelled, my lords and gentlemen,

526
00:36:55,500 --> 00:36:57,520
to draw your attention to what was certainly being bogus.

527
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,700
I regret to say, Mr. Rothschild, the decision must stand.

528
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,740
But my house sent in its bid to take the entire issue.

529
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,200
And our price was a point better than Mr. Baring's.

530
00:37:06,240 --> 00:37:07,800
Why is that not recorded?

531
00:37:07,820 --> 00:37:12,140
Perhaps count Ledrantz would like to explain the situation to Mr. Rothschild.

532
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,240
Your excellency.

533
00:37:19,240 --> 00:37:22,240
Your bid was received, Mr. Rothschild.

534
00:37:22,340 --> 00:37:25,760
But to put it as delicately as possible, it was thrown out,

535
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,240
shall we say, on a technicality.

536
00:37:29,740 --> 00:37:31,020
A technicality?

537
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:33,260
What am I to understand by that?

538
00:37:33,420 --> 00:37:38,220
You are at liberty to give my statement any interpretation you choose.

539
00:37:38,300 --> 00:37:41,060
You mean in brief, I am a Jew.

540
00:37:41,460 --> 00:37:44,440
Likewise in brief, I do.

541
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,100
Gentlemen, I must accept your decision.

542
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,560
But since count Ledrantz has been frank enough

543
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,940
to admit the reason for our exclusion,

544
00:37:56,180 --> 00:37:59,340
I venture to advise him that these attacks on my race

545
00:37:59,340 --> 00:38:01,660
are ignorant and futile.

546
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,060
He may strike, and strike again.

547
00:38:05,180 --> 00:38:09,100
A Jew falls, a thousand are wounded.

548
00:38:09,180 --> 00:38:11,160
But the race lives on.

549
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:17,160
But unfortunately for his excellency, we are evidently eternal.

550
00:38:24,540 --> 00:38:28,860
Mr. Herries, you say that Baring's takes three fourths of the loan.

551
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,680
May I ask who takes the other fourth?

552
00:38:31,740 --> 00:38:34,220
That is being taken up by count Ledrantz,

553
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,500
prince Metternich, count Talleyrand...

554
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,600
I see. A family party.

555
00:38:40,540 --> 00:38:45,200
- Good day, gentlemen.
- Your luck is out, Mr. Rothschild.

556
00:39:30,980 --> 00:39:32,300
Julie.

557
00:39:32,540 --> 00:39:37,340
Father! Well father, what news? How stands the House of Rothschild?

558
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,600
Well, they've been throwing stones at it,

559
00:39:40,740 --> 00:39:44,660
and I'm afraid some of the stones went wild, and hit usually.

560
00:39:45,820 --> 00:39:47,140
What do you mean?

561
00:39:47,180 --> 00:39:50,520
I just come from a meeting of men in society,

562
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,140
the kind of society to which Fitzroy belongs,

563
00:39:54,220 --> 00:39:57,140
and they stole me because I'm a Jew.

564
00:39:58,100 --> 00:40:01,860
- Fitzroy isn't that sort.
- Julie, you must give him up.
- Give him up?

565
00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:04,060
- I can't.
- I know best.
- But you don't love him, I do.

566
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,860
- Will he continue to love you?
- Father, this isn't like you.

567
00:40:06,900 --> 00:40:10,140
You've always fought for what you wanted, and got it. Perhaps I'm a fighter, too.

568
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:11,820
This fight's been going on for 2.000 years.

569
00:40:11,820 --> 00:40:14,660
- But things have changed, and you said so yourself!
- I was a fool.

570
00:40:14,700 --> 00:40:17,680
I thought we'd swept away these prejudices. But I was a fool.

571
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:18,780
Fitz knows what he's doing.

572
00:40:18,780 --> 00:40:21,100
We've talked this thing all over, we are ready to face the consequences.

573
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,320
While you are young. But what are the years to come?

574
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,640
There's no one else in the world for me. I won't give him up.

575
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,360
Well, Nathan.

576
00:40:31,140 --> 00:40:32,480
What is it?

577
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,580
They didn't outbid you.

578
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:39,420
Yes, my bid was thrown out on a technicality.

579
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,740
- A technicality?
- Because I'm a Jew.

580
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,140
They did me a great service.

581
00:40:47,220 --> 00:40:50,220
They showed me just how they were going to behave to Julie,

582
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,520
if she married into their set.

583
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:57,960
You'll do as I bid you.

584
00:40:59,700 --> 00:41:01,260
I'll try, father.

585
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,640
Nathan, what have you said to her? You can't ruin their lives.

586
00:41:07,720 --> 00:41:09,660
No, I'm going to save them.

587
00:41:09,720 --> 00:41:13,320
Hannah, she mustn't continue to see this man. You must get her away.

588
00:41:13,380 --> 00:41:14,120
But where?

589
00:41:14,140 --> 00:41:15,840
Take here to Frankfurt and take her at once.

590
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:17,040
Excuse me, sir.

591
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:21,180
I heard the result of the meeting and came to offer my sympathy.

592
00:41:21,260 --> 00:41:25,420
Thanks. You have any spare sympathy, you might keep a little in reserve,

593
00:41:25,460 --> 00:41:27,280
for Baring, Ledrantz and company.

594
00:41:27,290 --> 00:41:29,200
I don't think they need it, sir.

595
00:41:29,340 --> 00:41:31,460
No. They may later.

596
00:41:32,220 --> 00:41:37,600
You realize, that Ledrantz, Metternich, Talleyrand, and the rest of the party,

597
00:41:37,700 --> 00:41:40,600
are taking a fourth of this loan, without a penny between them.

598
00:41:40,620 --> 00:41:43,620
But they'll make millions on the rise.

599
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,660
- He's tired.
- Perhaps I better call again later.

600
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:51,920
Roy.

601
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:57,100
- If you could buy government 4% bonds at 60, would you pay 74 for them?
- No, sir.

602
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,340
- Would you, Hannah?
- Goodness me, no.

603
00:41:59,460 --> 00:42:00,720
I thought not.

604
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,560
Nathan, what's in your mind?

605
00:42:04,220 --> 00:42:05,680
Murder.

606
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,120
Hannah, I'll tell you exactly what's in my mind,

607
00:42:10,180 --> 00:42:12,540
and this may interest you, too, Roy.

608
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,760
Baring, and those others, h as by Ledrantz,

609
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,700
have taking this new loan at 71.

610
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:23,280
On the first of the month they're going to offer it to the public at 74.

611
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,420
It pays 4%.

612
00:42:25,460 --> 00:42:29,160
But there is already in existence a previous government bond,

613
00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:33,640
which also pays 4%, of which we have a large holding.

614
00:42:33,740 --> 00:42:36,500
This bond is now sitting at 73.

615
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,500
Hannah says I'm tired.

616
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:44,180
But I'm not too tired to realize that if the public can buy one government bond per 73,

617
00:42:44,240 --> 00:42:47,820
they won't buy a new issue bearing the same interest for 74.

618
00:42:47,820 --> 00:42:48,940
That's true, sir.

619
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,460
But Baring and the other bankers will run up the old bonds.

620
00:42:51,590 --> 00:42:54,100
- And when they rise to about 75.
- I know what you're going to say.

621
00:42:54,140 --> 00:42:55,840
They'll make the old ones rise,

622
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,540
and then launch the new ones a point lower, and the public rushes in.

623
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:00,740
Quite so, sir.

624
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,800
But suppose there is no rise.

625
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,860
Suppose somebody pricks the balloon, and it doesn't go up.

626
00:43:08,540 --> 00:43:10,980
Suppose before they can run it up,

627
00:43:11,020 --> 00:43:13,640
somebody else begins to run it down,

628
00:43:13,780 --> 00:43:17,700
Suppose for the first of the month, these old bonds now selling at 73

629
00:43:17,720 --> 00:43:19,660
should fall down to 63.

630
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:24,240
Then they couldn't possible launch the new loans at 74, because nobody would buy this.

631
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:31,300
And Baring, and Ledrantz, and his little band of bankrupt biggens, will wait for it to go up.

632
00:43:31,380 --> 00:43:35,580
But suppose instead of going up, it still goes down.

633
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:39,740
To 55, to 50, to 45, to 40.

634
00:43:39,820 --> 00:43:44,860
Where they'll never be able to last alone at all, and buy. That's where it's going.

635
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:51,240
Sell.

636
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:55,960
Sell.

637
00:44:02,220 --> 00:44:03,340
Sell.

638
00:44:06,460 --> 00:44:11,400
Look at Rothschild, you think he was selling apples instead of government bonds.

639
00:44:11,500 --> 00:44:13,280
Runs an hour at 53.

640
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,580
All right. You keep on selling until I tell you to stop.

641
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,520
You're creating something like a panic on the exchange, sir.

642
00:44:19,580 --> 00:44:20,780
I know.

643
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,840
What kind of a flower is this that Hannah gave me this morning?

644
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:25,120
I don't know, sir.

645
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,480
Very pretty. Smells nice, too.

646
00:44:28,580 --> 00:44:31,100
Mr. Rothschild, do you know what you're doing to the market?

647
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:31,940
What have you heard?

648
00:44:31,980 --> 00:44:34,460
My dear fellow. I don't hear things, I just imagine.

649
00:44:34,460 --> 00:44:36,580
You know what kind of a flower this is?

650
00:44:36,620 --> 00:44:37,600
No.

651
00:44:41,380 --> 00:44:42,700
52.

652
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,840
52. That means I've done about 25 million francs!

653
00:44:46,860 --> 00:44:48,080
And you the same, Ledrantz!

654
00:44:48,140 --> 00:44:50,240
Can't something be done to stop him, Baring?

655
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:51,960
You're the biggest banker in England.

656
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,280
Are we all to be ruined by the gymnastics of a dutchy frylock?

657
00:44:55,340 --> 00:44:58,420
I've thrown my entire resources of Baring's Bank into the pool,

658
00:44:58,460 --> 00:45:00,180
but I can't stop it.

659
00:45:00,240 --> 00:45:01,800
He's got us on the run.

660
00:45:02,220 --> 00:45:06,420
Roy. And I bet you half a crown,

661
00:45:06,500 --> 00:45:10,060
that Baring makes straight for this post within two minutes.

662
00:45:10,060 --> 00:45:11,800
I'll take you, sir.

663
00:45:13,540 --> 00:45:16,320
I'm tired of losing money, I'd like to win some.

664
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,440
You are a magician, sir. Here he is.

665
00:45:30,540 --> 00:45:34,320
Mr. Rothschild, I don't have to tell you this is nothing less than slaughter.

666
00:45:34,340 --> 00:45:37,660
You know my position. I'm responsable for this new issue at 71.

667
00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:41,140
- And you are making it impossible for me to put it on the market.
- We are both bankers.

668
00:45:41,260 --> 00:45:43,980
You knew I ought to have a share of this loan, why did you shut me out?

669
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,640
- Certain pressure was brought to bear on me.
- Huh, Ledrantz!

670
00:45:47,700 --> 00:45:50,800
- Well, yes.
- Then let Ledrantz speak for himself.

671
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:54,120
All right, Mr. Baring. I'll come. I'll follow you.

672
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,500
About how much has this thing cost us up till now?

673
00:46:03,540 --> 00:46:05,760
About five million pounds.

674
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:08,740
We'll make ten.

675
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:21,920
I hope I haven't kept you waiting gentlemen,

676
00:46:21,940 --> 00:46:25,360
because I know you must all be very busy.

677
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,080
We send for you Rothschild, but to make you an offer.

678
00:46:30,340 --> 00:46:32,780
You reject being left out of this loan.

679
00:46:32,900 --> 00:46:35,480
Mr. Baring's, you know, holds three quarters of it.

680
00:46:35,540 --> 00:46:38,500
He's prepared to part with half of it, but to you.

681
00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,380
- But will that satisfy you?
- What about the other quarter?

682
00:46:41,460 --> 00:46:43,220
That, as you know, is held by us.

683
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:46,000
- Oh, yes, you bought it at 71.
- We are responsible for it.

684
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,140
- You bought it at 71.
- It was allotted to us.

685
00:46:48,140 --> 00:46:50,240
- But not against your will, I hope.
- Certainly not.

686
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:52,540
- So you bought it at 71.
- What do you mean, bought it?

687
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:53,880
And your people at 71.

688
00:46:53,940 --> 00:46:57,300
You know perfectly well that no one is prepared to pay in full for an entire issue.

689
00:46:57,340 --> 00:46:58,980
We're prepared to pay anything.

690
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,240
Could you've sold at a 10 point drop? No.

691
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:02,580
You took it for a rise.

692
00:47:02,620 --> 00:47:04,820
You're financially irresponsible, the whole lot of you.

693
00:47:04,860 --> 00:47:06,160
Except Mr. Baring.

694
00:47:06,220 --> 00:47:09,060
I know just how much money you've got each one of you.

695
00:47:09,100 --> 00:47:13,320
And if I like to hold down the market, till after the first of the month, and I can,

696
00:47:13,340 --> 00:47:16,080
you're all ruined. And dishonored.

697
00:47:16,140 --> 00:47:17,760
Including Baring's Bank.

698
00:47:18,460 --> 00:47:21,260
Now, I'll rescue you on one condition.

699
00:47:22,460 --> 00:47:25,300
That you pass me the entire issue at 68.

700
00:47:25,380 --> 00:47:28,940
- That's impossible!
- Nobody'll excuse, come we out into the public.

701
00:47:29,020 --> 00:47:31,640
- You say it was found necessary.
- On what grounds?

702
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:34,320
Oh, on a technicality.

703
00:47:36,300 --> 00:47:37,940
- No.
- Very well.

704
00:47:37,980 --> 00:47:41,560
Wait please, we have to deal with Mr. Rothschild.

705
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:45,000
Under the circumstances I consider his offer a generous one.

706
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,260
And as the head of the House of Baring,

707
00:47:47,340 --> 00:47:50,680
I insist on Mr. Rothschild's terms being accepted.

708
00:47:50,740 --> 00:47:53,600
What? Are you going to take it over our hands, Rothschild?

709
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:55,000
That's uncommon good of you.

710
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:59,240
May I, count Nesselrolde, are you also on the preferred list?

711
00:47:59,300 --> 00:48:02,600
Yes. But I much prefer to be off of it.

712
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,620
Well, we've no choice.

713
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:09,800
I accept.

714
00:48:09,820 --> 00:48:12,180
I say yes without hesitation.

715
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:13,640
Count Ledrantz?

716
00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,040
Very well.

717
00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:22,120
To save time, I had this little contract drawn,

718
00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:25,760
Which I shall ask you gentlemen, to sign.

719
00:48:33,780 --> 00:48:36,280
You seem to have been very sure of yourself.

720
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,500
I was, quite.

721
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:44,980
Will you sign first?

722
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:50,860
49.

723
00:48:59,900 --> 00:49:02,700
You won your fight with me, Jew.

724
00:49:03,140 --> 00:49:07,620
But remember, victory may be bought too dearly.

725
00:49:23,980 --> 00:49:28,220
Anti-Jewish riots have broken out here, and all over Prussia.

726
00:49:28,220 --> 00:49:30,480
Come at once. Amschel, Frankfort.

727
00:49:30,540 --> 00:49:31,940
Ledrantz!

728
00:49:32,720 --> 00:49:36,940
- What are you going to do sir?
- I'm going to Frankfurt, I'll leave within an hour.

729
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:47,320
Get out. Get out, you doctors. You can't even cure a bellyache.

730
00:50:47,380 --> 00:50:50,500
Take your pills and get out, you're no good.

731
00:50:50,720 --> 00:50:52,140
Come, come mama.

732
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,280
- You know the doctor's doing everything he can for you.
- Yes.

733
00:50:55,340 --> 00:50:57,520
You must remember, Mrs. Rothschild,

734
00:50:57,580 --> 00:51:01,840
you are 88 years old, and I can't make you any younger.

735
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:03,800
I'm not asking you to make me any younger,

736
00:51:03,820 --> 00:51:05,880
I'm asking you to make me older.

737
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:10,940
She's better, she's insulting people.

738
00:51:11,300 --> 00:51:14,760
- There's nothing to matter with her. Just nerves.
- Nerves!

739
00:51:15,380 --> 00:51:17,680
Do you think I'm afraid of that rattle?

740
00:51:17,720 --> 00:51:19,900
I've had 88 years of this.

741
00:51:19,980 --> 00:51:21,560
I'm not dead, yet.

742
00:51:21,620 --> 00:51:24,440
But we want you to come away with us for a few months,

743
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:25,860
you're not safe here.

744
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,760
I was born here and I'll die here.

745
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:31,520
That won't be soon, either.

746
00:51:31,580 --> 00:51:33,540
I'll live a dozen years, yet.

747
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:36,420
Nathan, you ought to know enough about bargains

748
00:51:36,420 --> 00:51:38,380
to know the Lord isn't gonna take me at 88,

749
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:40,640
when he can get me at a 100.

750
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:45,820
Well, Nathan, what's brought you here all of a sudden?

751
00:51:45,830 --> 00:51:47,440
He came to seize my family.

752
00:51:47,460 --> 00:51:48,760
How's been doing that girl of yours.

753
00:51:48,780 --> 00:51:51,640
She goes kneeling about like a cat, that's lost her kittens.

754
00:51:51,670 --> 00:51:52,540
She needs a change.

755
00:51:52,580 --> 00:51:54,320
She needs a husband. That's what's the matter with her.

756
00:51:54,340 --> 00:51:56,160
What about one the Goshmet boys?

757
00:51:56,260 --> 00:51:59,020
I'm afraid Julie has ideas of her own.

758
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,500
Leave her alone, she's no fool.

759
00:52:22,020 --> 00:52:25,140
- Can you tell me which is the Rothschild house?
- Yes.

760
00:52:29,980 --> 00:52:31,080
That's it.

761
00:52:41,980 --> 00:52:46,340
- What's the use of our pretending?
- I don't pretend a father, he knows exactly how I feel.

762
00:52:46,860 --> 00:52:48,700
You listen, darling, he's determined too.

763
00:52:48,740 --> 00:52:51,100
Did you know we can't give each other up?

764
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,980
Sending you away from me only makes matters worse.

765
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:56,720
Did you tell him you give me up?

766
00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,140
I told him I'd try.

767
00:52:59,780 --> 00:53:02,400
I don't seem to be trying very hard, do I?

768
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,180
Let me look at you.

769
00:53:09,240 --> 00:53:10,640
How long did it take you to get here?

770
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:11,700
How long have you been riding?

771
00:53:11,700 --> 00:53:13,520
- I left yesterday morning.
- How'd you manage?

772
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:14,940
I asked Nosy for leave.

773
00:53:14,940 --> 00:53:16,020
Who's Nosy?

774
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:19,340
That's what we call the Duke behind his back.

775
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,320
I think he guessed where I was bound for.

776
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:23,320
Anyhow he said yes.

777
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:27,140
Of course, I had no idea your father was here.

778
00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:29,040
No, of course not.

779
00:53:29,780 --> 00:53:31,240
What are we going to do?

780
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:33,960
- I'm going to see him have it out.
- Good.

781
00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:35,500
Oh, darling.

782
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:37,660
Won't you see us through with me somehow.

783
00:53:38,420 --> 00:53:40,500
I've got you and I'm gonna keep you.

784
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:48,200
Then you be very brave, a soldier.

785
00:53:49,500 --> 00:53:52,600
- Wear this ring.
- Oh, yes.

786
00:53:52,720 --> 00:53:55,380
It's one of those family things my mother wore.

787
00:53:55,380 --> 00:53:57,280
Oh, it's lovely.

788
00:53:57,820 --> 00:53:59,540
What's the meaning of this?

789
00:54:02,380 --> 00:54:04,880
Father, Fitz is only just arrived.

790
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,080
- I saw him, brought him in here.
- Does your mother know?

791
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:07,820
No.

792
00:54:07,860 --> 00:54:09,700
And nobody knows, but us.

793
00:54:09,780 --> 00:54:12,060
Why are you here? You knew my wishes.

794
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,300
I came here for the same reason you did, sir.

795
00:54:14,420 --> 00:54:17,220
I heard there was trouble and Julie was in danger.

796
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:18,140
Go to your mother.

797
00:54:18,180 --> 00:54:21,900
- I'd rather stay in here. What do you have to say to Fitz?
- Please go, Julie.

798
00:54:26,020 --> 00:54:27,640
It's no use, father.

799
00:54:32,700 --> 00:54:35,310
I had a good reason for keeping you and my daughter apart.

800
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,480
I desire that you respect my wishes.

801
00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:39,940
If Julie weren't agreeable, I wouldn't be here, sir.

802
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,140
But her happiness is involved as well as mine.

803
00:54:42,240 --> 00:54:46,600
Unfortunately, we differ as to where her happiness lies.

804
00:54:46,980 --> 00:54:49,300
What has changed your attitude toward me, sir?

805
00:54:49,620 --> 00:54:50,920
Captain Fitzroy,

806
00:54:51,020 --> 00:54:53,600
I doubt whether there's a single man in London today,

807
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,760
who would suspect me of being a sentimental fool,

808
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:57,380
which apparently I have been.

809
00:54:57,500 --> 00:54:59,920
But fortunately I have a certain amount of common sense.

810
00:54:59,960 --> 00:55:01,740
which sometimes comes to my rescue.

811
00:55:01,780 --> 00:55:04,840
You'll please understand that your attentions to my daughter,

812
00:55:04,860 --> 00:55:06,460
are objectionable to me.

813
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,120
- What is your objection?
- You're not of our race.

814
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:13,000
- That's an objection I think you might have raised a great deal earlier.
- I'm a sentimental fool.

815
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:14,660
Walk through this ghetto.

816
00:55:14,780 --> 00:55:18,100
Go into the Jewish quarter of any towering patten today.

817
00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:20,440
And you'll see men lying dead.

818
00:55:20,620 --> 00:55:23,660
Julie's people killed by your people.

819
00:55:23,700 --> 00:55:27,180
For but one crime, that they were Jews.

820
00:55:27,660 --> 00:55:29,100
Now you'll understand.

821
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:32,280
I'm sorry sir, but I still love Julie.

822
00:55:32,380 --> 00:55:36,540
Julie is a Rothschild, and she'll not marry without her father's consent.

823
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:38,620
Good day.

824
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:55,680
Fitz.

825
00:55:55,720 --> 00:55:57,320
Fitz, no matter what happens.

826
00:55:57,340 --> 00:55:59,860
No matter even if what father says is true.

827
00:55:59,920 --> 00:56:02,920
I'll love you. Always.

828
00:56:07,860 --> 00:56:09,480
Jews, it's Prussia.

829
00:56:09,580 --> 00:56:13,980
Know that this uprising is the direct result of your quarrel with Ledrantz,

830
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,640
and that has made them bitter against you.

831
00:56:17,240 --> 00:56:20,540
Nathan has done more for the Jews in England than any man who ever lived.

832
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:21,920
Humanism pressure, mama.

833
00:56:21,980 --> 00:56:24,220
Ledrantz has his agents everywhere.

834
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,880
They spread lies and propaganda.

835
00:56:26,900 --> 00:56:28,660
You've got to put the screws on.

836
00:56:28,700 --> 00:56:30,880
Money is the only screws we have.

837
00:56:30,980 --> 00:56:33,100
And now, with Napoleon in exile,

838
00:56:33,140 --> 00:56:36,180
Ledrantz and the Allies need us no more.

839
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,260
Square, isn't it?

840
00:56:38,620 --> 00:56:40,500
We fight for the Peace of Europe,

841
00:56:40,580 --> 00:56:43,160
and with peace we lose our power.

842
00:56:43,240 --> 00:56:44,560
You've got to do something.

843
00:56:44,620 --> 00:56:46,800
They burned down the Levy's house last night.

844
00:56:46,860 --> 00:56:50,340
And they'd burned down this one, if they did, but they're afraid of me.

845
00:56:50,340 --> 00:56:53,820
You tell all those kings and ministers you feed,

846
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:58,360
that if they don't stop this outrage, you'll stop their pocket money.

847
00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:01,380
If I thought Ledrantz would listen,

848
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,840
if I thought I could make him call off his dogs,

849
00:57:04,900 --> 00:57:06,120
I'd go to him.

850
00:57:06,180 --> 00:57:09,580
- But...
- Now, don't worry Nathan and make yourself sick.

851
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:12,640
The Lord isn't going to desert us.

852
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,140
So take a rest, leave the work to him.

853
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:20,740
If there was only some way you could handle Ledrantz,

854
00:57:21,980 --> 00:57:24,780
for the sake of our Jewish people.

855
00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:27,320
I think you should go to him, Nathan.

856
00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:29,660
Grovel at his feet.

857
00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:31,360
All right.

858
00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:33,780
If you think so, I'll go.

859
00:57:33,940 --> 00:57:38,580
He must have his price. Or whatever it is, I'll pay it.

860
00:57:43,660 --> 00:57:46,580
I'll make you gentlemen pay for your wine.

861
00:57:46,700 --> 00:57:48,820
The cards seem to favor you tonight, your excellency.

862
00:57:48,860 --> 00:57:51,820
Oh, they should. They're my cards.

863
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:57,400
- Any news?
- Good news, your excellency.

864
00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:02,100
Dresden. Entire ghetto reduced to ashes by fire.

865
00:58:02,820 --> 00:58:06,700
It is estimated that 5000 Jewish refugees crossed the border into the Netherlands.

866
00:58:06,740 --> 00:58:10,240
I've dispatched three agents to the Hague to stir up the populace there.

867
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:14,800
Frankfurt. The citizens stormed the ghetto and fired two houses.

868
00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:19,280
Serious pogroms prevented by the arrival of the civic guard.

869
00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:23,060
- Who ordered out the civic guards?
- The Bürgermeister, but he won't interfere again.

870
00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:26,100
We've explained your excellency's campaign.

871
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:30,500
That's splendid news, coronel.

872
00:58:30,540 --> 00:58:33,320
- I have still better news for your excellency.
- Yes.

873
00:58:33,380 --> 00:58:37,560
Nathan Rothschild is in Frankfurt. He arrived from London last night.

874
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:44,140
If he tries to leave, I want him arrested at the border and brought to me here.

875
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:45,560
Yes, your excellency.

876
00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:47,000
Upon what grounds?

877
00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,780
- Make your own grounds.
- Yes, your excellency.

878
00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:53,340
The House of Rothschild.

879
00:58:53,980 --> 00:58:56,800
The house with the red shield.

880
00:58:57,700 --> 00:58:59,520
I'll make it red.

881
00:59:25,100 --> 00:59:27,400
That's him. The one in the heavy coat.

882
00:59:27,460 --> 00:59:28,740
Goodbye, Amschel.

883
00:59:28,860 --> 00:59:33,020
And I promise you I won't come back without an agreement from Ledrantz.

884
00:59:33,060 --> 00:59:36,300
To stop this pogrom, whatever the cost may be.

885
00:59:36,340 --> 00:59:37,820
May God be with us.

886
00:59:37,940 --> 00:59:41,540
Send word to stop his carriers as he starts to pass through the city gates.

887
00:59:41,580 --> 00:59:44,460
Seize him, and place him under arrest. Quick.

888
00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:48,880
Mr. Rothschild! Mr. Rothschild!

889
00:59:48,940 --> 00:59:49,880
What is it, Schumann?

890
00:59:49,940 --> 00:59:52,900
This message just arrived at the office, sir. It's from Mr. Nathan.

891
00:59:52,980 --> 00:59:54,860
- For me?
- Yes, sir.

892
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:06,920
What is it?

893
01:00:06,980 --> 01:00:09,880
- Napoleon has escaped from Elba.
- Escaped?

894
01:00:09,900 --> 01:00:13,000
The French are rallying with arms by thousands.

895
01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:16,100
This means war. And not a war.

896
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:17,920
Now you can go to Ledrantz.

897
01:00:17,980 --> 01:00:19,960
Now he needs you.

898
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:21,240
Now for the heck is he.

899
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:23,660
No, I won't go to Ledrantz.

900
01:00:23,660 --> 01:00:26,980
Ledrantz will come here, to the ghetto.

901
01:00:27,020 --> 01:00:31,200
- Michael, bring my baggie's back. I'm not going.
- All right, sir.

902
01:00:33,740 --> 01:00:37,540
Of course, Wellington. I'm Prime Minister but you're the idol of the people.

903
01:00:37,540 --> 01:00:41,440
My dear fellow. I'm going to retire quietly to the country.

904
01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:44,920
- Surrounded by my dogs and my books. And...
- Yes.

905
01:00:44,940 --> 01:00:47,640
- For his grace.
- For me?

906
01:00:48,260 --> 01:00:49,780
Will you excuse me.

907
01:00:55,060 --> 01:00:58,120
- That blasted little Corsican is back!
- What?

908
01:01:00,700 --> 01:01:01,920
Count Ledrantz!

909
01:01:01,980 --> 01:01:04,800
- I gave orders not to be disturbed.
- It's important, sir.

910
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:06,280
Word has just reached us,

911
01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:10,120
Napoleon has escaped, and is in France mobilizing his army.

912
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:26,460
You are walking just like a young girl.

913
01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:29,200
Well, boys.

914
01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:39,540
Well. Let's have another look at you.

915
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:43,920
You're all growing up, aren't you?

916
01:01:44,380 --> 01:01:47,140
Nathan, I think you're getting fat.

917
01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:52,380
I'm proud of you. All of you.

918
01:01:53,580 --> 01:01:56,720
Your father would have been 92 today.

919
01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:00,720
Ours is the richest banking house in Europe,

920
01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:03,620
and we're still being kicked.

921
01:02:03,620 --> 01:02:06,840
It looks as though we haven't played our cards very well, doesn't it?

922
01:02:06,900 --> 01:02:09,380
- Perhaps we haven't.
- I'm not criticizing.

923
01:02:09,420 --> 01:02:11,800
I think we're open to criticism, mama.

924
01:02:11,860 --> 01:02:14,530
And that's what has brought us all together here today.

925
01:02:14,540 --> 01:02:17,780
Oh, is it? I thought you came here to see me.

926
01:02:17,820 --> 01:02:23,200
It seems it takes a war and the Jewish pogrom to get us all together nowadays.

927
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:28,420
- Now that's not fair, mama. You know...
- Well, don't let's waste time in compliments.

928
01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:31,120
What have you come for?

929
01:02:32,300 --> 01:02:33,440
James.

930
01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:35,940
Nathan.

931
01:02:36,900 --> 01:02:40,340
You run the English house, and so you have the sea between you and trouble.

932
01:02:40,380 --> 01:02:44,980
But we, Carl and Solomon and Amschel and I, are here in the furnace.

933
01:02:44,980 --> 01:02:45,740
I know.

934
01:02:45,740 --> 01:02:48,920
And with Napoleon on the map again our position is intolerable.

935
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:50,580
Napoleon will be in Paris in a week,

936
01:02:50,620 --> 01:02:53,620
with a whole army, rallying into his banner and deserting Louis.

937
01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:55,700
Napoleon's soldiers must be paid,

938
01:02:55,740 --> 01:02:58,740
and if he can't borrow money, he'll take it.

939
01:02:58,820 --> 01:03:01,200
Has he suggested a loan?

940
01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:06,100
Yes, he sent for me as head of the Paris house. I went to see him in Lyon,

941
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:07,880
and he made a definite proposal.

942
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:09,940
Now listen, Nathan. Before you give an opinion.

943
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:14,000
We've issued 450 million francs with bonds

944
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:17,560
for a government which started packing at the first blast of a bugle.

945
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:21,720
Napoleon guarantees the payment of these bonds down to the last centime.

946
01:03:21,820 --> 01:03:26,540
And on future loans, he agrees to double the interest offered by his enemies.

947
01:03:26,620 --> 01:03:28,220
What of the Allies to offer us?

948
01:03:28,260 --> 01:03:31,680
From the simple standpoint of business we shouldn't hesitate a day longer,

949
01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:35,800
Our refusal to support Napoleon means not only the probable loss of a murderous sum,

950
01:03:35,820 --> 01:03:39,300
but James's Paris business, my Napels business will be wiped out like that.

951
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,360
And Amschel's and Solomon's are in great danger.

952
01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:43,060
It's no longer a question with me.

953
01:03:43,100 --> 01:03:44,860
We should support Napoleon.

954
01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:48,340
As far as I can see, the Allies seem to be under the thumb of a...

955
01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:52,140
tyrant from Austria and a scoundrel from Prussia. Metternich and Ledrantz.

956
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:57,400
Mama has said, we are still being kicked, and she's right.

957
01:03:57,440 --> 01:04:00,420
For a quarter of a century we have stood with the Allies.

958
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:02,600
And apart from what we've got out of it personally,

959
01:04:02,620 --> 01:04:08,500
houses, fine clothes, carriages, as Jews, we are just where we started.

960
01:04:08,560 --> 01:04:12,800
In the Jew Street, waiting for the change to be put up.

961
01:04:12,900 --> 01:04:14,380
I agree with the others.

962
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:17,600
We've got to transfer our support to Napoleon,

963
01:04:17,660 --> 01:04:20,080
and start over again with him.

964
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:23,900
Well, son.

965
01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:30,600
You're right, all of you. Every word you've said is true.

966
01:04:30,900 --> 01:04:34,160
But still, we must fight Napoleon.

967
01:04:34,220 --> 01:04:35,340
Why?

968
01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:40,080
Well, because we are the Rothschilds.

969
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:42,300
For the time being anyway,

970
01:04:42,380 --> 01:04:46,740
we're something more than five rich Jews looking for the main chance.

971
01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:48,960
We know the world knows.

972
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:51,420
And until Napoleon is gone forever,

973
01:04:51,460 --> 01:04:55,080
there can be no peace in Europe, for Jew or gentile.

974
01:04:55,140 --> 01:04:57,080
You can't deny, any of you.

975
01:04:58,240 --> 01:04:59,940
We've got to take the risk.

976
01:05:00,500 --> 01:05:04,260
We've got to swallow our pride, to stomach our resent,

977
01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:09,200
We've got to go against every normal selfish impulse in us,

978
01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:11,460
and do what is right for the world.

979
01:05:11,860 --> 01:05:16,560
We can go hand in hand with Napoleon, and spread this war over years.

980
01:05:16,660 --> 01:05:22,000
We can pay for fire and blood, until all Europe is a slaughterhouse.

981
01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:28,360
And the Jew would stand as a pawnbroker in lives.

982
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:31,140
We can't do it.

983
01:05:31,780 --> 01:05:34,980
And we must stand what we've always stood.

984
01:05:35,540 --> 01:05:38,440
Not for war, but to peace.

985
01:05:39,100 --> 01:05:44,540
And if we all go down, we'll go down with honor.

986
01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:50,240
We'll leave no shame, anywhere.

987
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:57,000
Nathan, that is what your father would have said.

988
01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:00,740
You're right. I agree.

989
01:06:15,260 --> 01:06:17,620
The House of the Red Shield, your excellency.

990
01:06:26,140 --> 01:06:29,740
- The Philistines are at pass.
- Who is it?

991
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:33,980
Metternich, Talleyrand and Ledrantz.

992
01:06:37,860 --> 01:06:42,080
- Who could that be, the tax collector?
- Something very like it, mama.

993
01:06:45,780 --> 01:06:49,580
- Is Mr. Nathan Rothschild here?
- Your excellency will enter.

994
01:06:54,100 --> 01:06:58,100
My lords. This is a great pleasure.

995
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:00,400
But how did you find your way?

996
01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:05,380
The Duke of Wellington was kind enough to supply us with a guide, Captain Fitzroy.

997
01:07:05,430 --> 01:07:07,915
Who has, I believe, been here before.

998
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:12,260
How won't you come in?

999
01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:17,660
My brothers and I were speaking of you only this moment.

1000
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:19,720
Prince Metternich, Talleyrand...

1001
01:07:19,820 --> 01:07:21,640
I won't burden you with introductions,

1002
01:07:21,700 --> 01:07:25,780
except perhaps to my mother, who was startled by your arrival.

1003
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,520
She thought you were the tax collector, count Ledrantz.

1004
01:07:28,580 --> 01:07:31,160
Welcome to our ghetto.

1005
01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:36,300
- You will forgive this unexpected visit.
- Certainly, we were expecting it.

1006
01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:39,760
Then we may assume you know precisely why we are here.

1007
01:07:39,860 --> 01:07:42,620
Not the precise amount, but approximately.

1008
01:07:42,700 --> 01:07:45,920
May I congratulate you on your brilliant sons, Madame Rothschild?

1009
01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:49,880
Yes, I'm told I'm the mother of hats and loans in Europe.

1010
01:07:50,980 --> 01:07:54,700
I am here at the request of the Duke of Wellington and the allied governments.

1011
01:07:54,780 --> 01:07:57,860
In that case, my brothers, too, are interested.

1012
01:07:57,900 --> 01:07:59,280
Won't you sit down?

1013
01:07:59,300 --> 01:08:03,780
- We will not intrude very long.
- They're chained in at six.

1014
01:08:05,740 --> 01:08:09,040
Speaking for myself, I admit that I come as a penitent.

1015
01:08:09,100 --> 01:08:14,860
We've not always treated you quite fairly, Nathan. And now, frankly, we need you.

1016
01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:17,360
You should join Wellington on the field of battle.

1017
01:08:17,540 --> 01:08:20,500
He once told me that the test of a great general

1018
01:08:20,540 --> 01:08:24,680
is to know when to retreat, and to have the courage to do it.

1019
01:08:25,100 --> 01:08:26,820
The Allies need money.

1020
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:28,920
And we're not asking you to give anything.

1021
01:08:28,980 --> 01:08:31,360
You're moneylenders, and you'll get your interest.

1022
01:08:31,400 --> 01:08:32,760
You sure of that?

1023
01:08:32,860 --> 01:08:34,160
Don't you trust the powers?

1024
01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:38,780
- No, Austria's bankrupt.
- France is already in the hands of Napoleon.
- And so is Italy.

1025
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:42,120
Why don't you go to the other bankers? Your own bankers?

1026
01:08:42,220 --> 01:08:44,900
- They've not sufficient capital.
- You mean they won't take the chance?

1027
01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:46,420
What if Napoleon wins?

1028
01:08:46,480 --> 01:08:49,460
I suppose there must be a certain amount of risk in your business.

1029
01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:51,520
No, we asked security.

1030
01:08:51,620 --> 01:08:53,760
What security can you offer us?

1031
01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:56,220
Then don't say you are not asking us to give anything,

1032
01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:58,400
you're asking us to give a great deal.

1033
01:08:58,480 --> 01:09:00,980
I see no reason for prolonging this meeting.

1034
01:09:01,020 --> 01:09:03,400
As you say, we are moneylenders.

1035
01:09:03,440 --> 01:09:06,240
Not philanthropists, we do it for profit.

1036
01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:08,920
You may as well know that Napoleon

1037
01:09:08,980 --> 01:09:11,640
has offered us twice as much as you can promise us,

1038
01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:14,120
and we've decided to take his offer.

1039
01:09:14,420 --> 01:09:17,300
- Call over to the enemy.
- I must submit, I'm amazed.

1040
01:09:17,300 --> 01:09:19,520
How will Napoleon get the money to pay you?

1041
01:09:19,560 --> 01:09:22,520
Steal it. But that's not our business.

1042
01:09:23,260 --> 01:09:25,940
I always thought you stood for peace.

1043
01:09:26,980 --> 01:09:29,640
For 20 years we've been supporting the peace of Europe.

1044
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:31,680
Now we are thinking of the peace of our own people.

1045
01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:33,300
- The Jews.
- Yes.

1046
01:09:33,460 --> 01:09:35,620
Napoleon will give us our freedom.

1047
01:09:35,660 --> 01:09:37,740
That's why we are for Napoleon.

1048
01:09:43,360 --> 01:09:47,740
Is that your only reason for deserting the Allies?

1049
01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:51,140
I resent being cross-questioned by you, count Ledrantz.

1050
01:09:51,620 --> 01:09:55,000
I think his excellency was about to make a proposition.

1051
01:09:58,360 --> 01:09:59,300
Well.

1052
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:04,780
If we gave you all the freedom that Napoleon could give you,

1053
01:10:04,840 --> 01:10:09,280
would you then be willing to sacrifice the financial advantage of his offer?

1054
01:10:09,300 --> 01:10:12,740
Count Ledrantz, we are moneylenders.

1055
01:10:12,780 --> 01:10:15,020
Come, Nathan. After all these years.

1056
01:10:15,040 --> 01:10:16,400
What do you offer?

1057
01:10:17,680 --> 01:10:19,020
What do you want?

1058
01:10:20,660 --> 01:10:24,600
- Brothers, may I speak for you?
- Yes, of course.

1059
01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:29,000
We require an agreement, a treaty.

1060
01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,940
Signed and guaranteed by your governments,

1061
01:10:31,980 --> 01:10:34,820
giving to our people absolute freedom.

1062
01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:38,880
In this agreement they would lose their chains.

1063
01:10:38,900 --> 01:10:42,840
They would have the right to follow any trade, to own land,

1064
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:45,840
to live with respect, and,

1065
01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:50,340
remember what our father said, mama,

1066
01:10:51,100 --> 01:10:53,900
to walk the world with dignity.

1067
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:59,440
I fear we will have to lay that before our respective governments.

1068
01:10:59,480 --> 01:11:02,340
You are your respective governments, and you know it!

1069
01:11:02,420 --> 01:11:04,120
The day this agreement is signed,

1070
01:11:04,180 --> 01:11:07,620
the resources of the House of Rothschild will be at your command,

1071
01:11:07,660 --> 01:11:09,280
and not before.

1072
01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:13,020
Very well, we accept.

1073
01:11:18,260 --> 01:11:20,500
Please excuse this, my lords.

1074
01:11:20,620 --> 01:11:24,740
Some gentile has evidently strayed into our quarter.

1075
01:11:30,060 --> 01:11:32,740
- Goodbye, Glenny.
- Goodbye, my precious.

1076
01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:35,020
- Goodbye, dear.
- Who's got my hat?

1077
01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:37,020
Oh, here you are, father.

1078
01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:41,520
- James.
- Father, I'l go on the carriage with Michael.
- All right, my dear.

1079
01:11:41,620 --> 01:11:47,180
James. It's of vital importance that we should have first hand news from the field of battle.

1080
01:11:47,260 --> 01:11:50,820
Some of it is to be close to Wellington's troops. Who can we trust?

1081
01:11:51,140 --> 01:11:56,140
- In time of war, nobody.
- What about you? Will you do it?

1082
01:11:57,180 --> 01:11:59,780
Yes. And I'll get word to you every day.

1083
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:05,340
On every move they make, the instant they make it, and always by the usual method.

1084
01:12:07,540 --> 01:12:11,020
- Bye, mama.
- I'll come to the door with you.

1085
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:32,800
You won't let it be a long war, will you?

1086
01:12:33,300 --> 01:12:37,380
It should've been just as short as our many convicted.

1087
01:12:52,860 --> 01:12:53,940
Good luck!

1088
01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:56,700
Goodbye, mama.

1089
01:13:20,660 --> 01:13:22,700
It's a horse, dear.

1090
01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:33,200
This time I am here by command of the Duke of Wellington, sir.

1091
01:13:43,640 --> 01:13:45,460
Give me the ring, quickly.

1092
01:13:49,300 --> 01:13:50,440
Darling.

1093
01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:56,060
Well.

1094
01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:05,120
I must say, I hope the entire war isn't going to be conducted on this romantic basis.

1095
01:14:15,140 --> 01:14:16,540
Captain Fitzroy!

1096
01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:19,740
I give Napoleon a hundred days. No longer.

1097
01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:22,420
If at the end of that time you are still alive,

1098
01:14:22,540 --> 01:14:25,460
and you seem to be the type of young man that can't be killed,

1099
01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:27,140
you can come and talk to me in London.

1100
01:14:27,220 --> 01:14:30,080
Thank you, sir. I shall count the days.

1101
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:40,120
Napoleon has reached Paris.

1102
01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:50,620
All Europe mobilizing.

1103
01:14:56,860 --> 01:15:01,920
Napoleon victorious in first great advance.

1104
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:08,320
Another victory for Napoleon.

1105
01:15:15,980 --> 01:15:20,100
Fear grips England. Panic in stock exchange.

1106
01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:46,740
Nathan, the Times says there's a rumor that the stock exchange won't open today.

1107
01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:49,860
I wish you were true, but it isn't.

1108
01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:53,680
Hannah, sit down.

1109
01:15:56,320 --> 01:15:59,440
When people become rich, very rich,

1110
01:15:59,520 --> 01:16:01,240
they have grave responsibilities.

1111
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:02,240
I know.

1112
01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:05,580
I mean, more responsibilities that come with money,

1113
01:16:05,620 --> 01:16:07,080
that poor people never know.

1114
01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:08,220
Yes.

1115
01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:11,600
Could you bear to be poor, really poor?

1116
01:16:11,900 --> 01:16:14,600
I'm asking you now, because tonight may be too late.

1117
01:16:14,620 --> 01:16:19,560
- Tell me what you need.
- I'm buying on the stock exchange when everyone else is selling.

1118
01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:23,140
I'm risking everything we have to save the credit of England.

1119
01:16:23,140 --> 01:16:27,860
I'm sticking to the bargain I made, but things look bad for us, Hannah.

1120
01:16:27,900 --> 01:16:29,280
Very bad.

1121
01:16:29,820 --> 01:16:33,320
- Are you doing what you feel you should do?
- Yes.

1122
01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:35,820
Do what you think is right.

1123
01:16:35,820 --> 01:16:39,540
And if you fail, I'll love you all the more.

1124
01:16:43,860 --> 01:16:47,040
And whatever happens, with your love,

1125
01:16:47,940 --> 01:16:51,160
and your flower in my buttonhole,

1126
01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:54,680
I'll still be the richest man in the world.

1127
01:16:56,260 --> 01:16:58,840
Father. Mr. Roy's found a message. May we hear it?

1128
01:16:58,880 --> 01:16:59,940
It just came forth.

1129
01:16:59,980 --> 01:17:03,710
I thought you should have it before going to the exchange.

1130
01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:16,780
Napoleon has thrown the entire grand army against Wellington. James.

1131
01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:19,680
Worse than worse.

1132
01:17:24,760 --> 01:17:29,720
Poor Julie. These are hard times for young lovers.

1133
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:32,620
Father.

1134
01:17:33,580 --> 01:17:35,940
You said you gave Napoleon a hundred days.

1135
01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:37,860
This is the hundredth day.

1136
01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:41,220
Who said he hasn't come back to.

1137
01:17:47,540 --> 01:17:50,580
Remember. I am a magician.

1138
01:17:51,540 --> 01:17:53,300
My day may be over,

1139
01:17:53,460 --> 01:17:58,820
but I know there's a message of love and hope on its way for you.

1140
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:43,260
Am I to continue to buy?

1141
01:18:43,580 --> 01:18:46,220
- Yes.
- But its sheer suicide, sir.

1142
01:18:46,300 --> 01:18:51,080
- Buy. Support the market.
- But we can't possibly keep it up, sir.

1143
01:18:51,420 --> 01:18:54,240
- How long?
- It's two hours to closing time.

1144
01:18:55,880 --> 01:19:00,160
- I can't hold on for two hours.
- Then stop this insane buying.

1145
01:19:00,220 --> 01:19:03,720
No! I made a deal with Ledrantz and the rest,

1146
01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:06,820
and I won't go back and rework. Buy it or we'll brick.

1147
01:19:06,820 --> 01:19:11,480
But do you realize, sir, that you're holding more than anyone ever held in the history of the stock exchange?

1148
01:19:11,500 --> 01:19:14,220
We've picked our horse, we'll back it till it drops.

1149
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:16,880
But here are the messages from your brothers, begging you to hold back.

1150
01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:18,100
You're alone in your judgment.

1151
01:19:18,100 --> 01:19:19,760
Are you all blind?

1152
01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:22,100
Where will Europe be if England is bankrupt?

1153
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:25,680
And if I can't hold the market, England's credit is gone.

1154
01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:30,140
But no one man can hold the nation's credit single-handed, Mr. Rothschild.

1155
01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:32,160
One man can try.

1156
01:19:32,580 --> 01:19:36,320
I'm fighting in the only way I can fight, with money.

1157
01:19:36,900 --> 01:19:40,040
I'm giving all I've got to give, for the peace of Europe.

1158
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:44,360
And whatever other Englishmen do tomorrow, I buy today.

1159
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:49,580
Mr. Rothschild. Forgive me, but wild rumors reach the exchange that Wellington is being defeated.

1160
01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:51,780
It can't be true. I've still heard long ago.

1161
01:19:51,780 --> 01:19:55,580
We owe so much to you. Will you do one thing more? Come and show yourself on the exchange.

1162
01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:57,760
They say you're ruined and down on face to music.

1163
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:00,800
There's a wild panic. Your presence may steady the market.

1164
01:20:00,860 --> 01:20:01,900
I come.

1165
01:20:39,740 --> 01:20:43,160
Too late, Mr. Rothschild. You backed the wrong horse this time.

1166
01:20:43,180 --> 01:20:45,220
Rothschild, you've lost your luck.

1167
01:20:55,820 --> 01:20:56,980
Buy both.

1168
01:20:59,020 --> 01:21:00,040
Buy.

1169
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:02,160
Buy.

1170
01:21:03,820 --> 01:21:04,620
Yes, buy.

1171
01:21:04,620 --> 01:21:06,680
Have you had any news? What do you think about this rumor?

1172
01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:08,200
I don't listen to rumors, Mr. Baring.

1173
01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:09,620
Do you hear what they say?

1174
01:21:09,640 --> 01:21:11,860
Wellington's defeated. You might tell me what you're going to do.

1175
01:21:11,900 --> 01:21:15,740
I have no objection to all or any of what I'm going to do. I'm buying.

1176
01:21:21,380 --> 01:21:24,180
Its Mr. Rothschild's asked me to give you this.

1177
01:21:25,980 --> 01:21:28,460
Did she come here to the exchange?

1178
01:21:29,660 --> 01:21:30,740
Yes.

1179
01:21:45,220 --> 01:21:50,980
Dearest: Remember, rich or poor, always your Hannah.

1180
01:22:07,900 --> 01:22:09,300
Look at Rothschild.

1181
01:22:09,340 --> 01:22:12,000
Have you ever seen such a cold-blooded fish?

1182
01:22:12,080 --> 01:22:16,340
It's a flower on his coat, as he stands on the scaffold without rope around him.

1183
01:22:16,380 --> 01:22:17,260
Ney.

1184
01:22:20,880 --> 01:22:22,800
News just arrived.

1185
01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:29,780
From James.

1186
01:22:38,620 --> 01:22:42,700
Wellington victorious possibly. Napoleon defeated.

1187
01:22:42,740 --> 01:22:44,260
The war is over!

1188
01:22:48,020 --> 01:22:51,520
I have news. News from Waterloo.

1189
01:22:51,780 --> 01:22:54,040
Napoleon is beaten!

1190
01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:01,200
It is true. Wellington has won in Waterloo.

1191
01:23:01,220 --> 01:23:04,260
- How did you get the news?
- Yes, how did you get the news?

1192
01:23:04,300 --> 01:23:08,680
By carrier pigeon. By pigeon post from the battlefield.

1193
01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:12,080
Now you know our secret! Now will you buy!

1194
01:23:12,180 --> 01:23:16,680
Buy with every security you have! Buy without security! Buy...

1195
01:23:39,500 --> 01:23:44,100
Oh Mr. Rothschild. Do tell me how it feels to be the richest man in the world.

1196
01:23:44,140 --> 01:23:47,600
One has to be very clever to make a fortune these days.

1197
01:23:47,620 --> 01:23:50,820
Now perhaps. Better far more clever to keep it.

1198
01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:56,540
Really? Well I wish you tell me how to make money on the stock exchange.

1199
01:23:56,600 --> 01:23:58,260
What's the recipe?

1200
01:23:58,300 --> 01:24:02,580
Oh, same as for a cold bath. Quick in and quick out.

1201
01:24:02,740 --> 01:24:04,400
Excuse me.

1202
01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:14,340
Take your hands out of your pockets.

1203
01:24:15,440 --> 01:24:16,700
Hannah.

1204
01:24:22,380 --> 01:24:25,420
Strange, isn't it? If young people like that,

1205
01:24:25,420 --> 01:24:29,900
should be just as interested in romance as you and I.

1206
01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:35,660
- I congratulate you, young people.
- Thank you, your grace.

1207
01:24:36,040 --> 01:24:38,600
Nathan, you are worried about something.

1208
01:24:38,640 --> 01:24:40,640
Yes Hannah, and I'm confoundedly worried.

1209
01:24:40,700 --> 01:24:41,380
What is it?

1210
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:43,380
Well, Mr. Rothschild, my congratulations.

1211
01:24:43,380 --> 01:24:45,120
Herries George, just the man I wanted to see.

1212
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:49,780
I'm very worried. Which knee to I kneel down when I go before his royal hands?

1213
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:33,220
England is deeply grateful to her adopted son.

1214
01:25:33,640 --> 01:25:40,600
By his generosity and courage, made some larger part in bringing victory and peace to Europe.

1215
01:25:41,580 --> 01:25:45,920
His loyalty never waver. His faith in England never falter.

1216
01:25:46,180 --> 01:25:48,880
To England, he has brought nothing but honor.

1217
01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:53,620
And for England, we thank you, Baron Nathan Rothschild.

1218
01:26:00,460 --> 01:26:03,380
Hannah, I used the wrong knee.

1219
01:26:13,160 --> 01:26:18,120
To trade with dignity, to live with dignity,

1220
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:23,640
to walk the world with dignity.
