The digitization
of this film preserves
2
00:00:07,417 --> 00:00:09,708
all the attributes
of the original work.
3
00:00:09,792 --> 00:00:11,083
It was achieved thanks to
4
00:00:15,500 --> 00:00:19,333
The Memory of Quebec Cinema
5
00:00:29,042 --> 00:00:30,417
After the defeat of 1760
6
00:00:30,542 --> 00:00:32,708
and the occupation
of our country,
7
00:00:32,833 --> 00:00:35,667
the British instituted
a fierce exploitation system,
8
00:00:35,792 --> 00:00:37,792
as in Africa, Asia,
and Latin America.
9
00:00:37,917 --> 00:00:39,917
In 1837,
our ancestors took up arms
10
00:00:40,042 --> 00:00:41,792
to cast off this corrupt regime.
11
00:00:41,917 --> 00:00:44,083
Poorly trained and armed,
the Patriots faced
12
00:00:44,208 --> 00:00:45,667
the world's strongest army.
13
00:00:45,792 --> 00:00:48,917
General Colborne's 8,000 troops
crushed the revolt.
14
00:00:49,042 --> 00:00:52,000
Hundreds of men died fighting.
15
00:00:52,125 --> 00:00:55,292
Villages were torched,
the prisons overflowed.
16
00:00:55,417 --> 00:01:00,208
For his services, Queen Victoria
named Colborne "Lord Seaton."
17
00:01:00,333 --> 00:01:03,583
For the Patriots,
he became "Lord Satan."

"In the pain of our
dispossessions." Gaston Miron
19
00:05:12,375 --> 00:05:13,292
Hey, Frenchie,
20
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,750
you piss like a horse!
21
00:05:15,875 --> 00:05:19,500
I could fill Colborne's
helmet, my bladder's so full.
22
00:05:21,875 --> 00:05:24,917
Sometimes pissing's
even better than fucking.
23
00:05:26,125 --> 00:05:28,083
Don't want to freeze
my knots off.
24
00:05:29,333 --> 00:05:31,958
Knots? I told you,
we call 'em nuts!
25
00:05:32,792 --> 00:05:34,167
Knots or nuts.
26
00:05:34,875 --> 00:05:36,250
mine are freezing!
27
00:05:39,875 --> 00:05:41,667
Instead of hanging us,
28
00:05:41,792 --> 00:05:44,625
the bastards are freezing us
to death.
29
00:05:44,750 --> 00:05:46,833
To save on firewood,
miserly buggers!
30
00:05:46,958 --> 00:05:49,417
Just so long
as we don't cost 'em much.
31
00:05:50,917 --> 00:05:53,000
Whining again, are we?
32
00:05:53,125 --> 00:05:55,875
They feed us, lodge us,
wash our linen.
33
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:57,625
And what's more,
34
00:05:57,750 --> 00:05:59,083
we learn English!
35
00:05:59,208 --> 00:06:01,083
Don't start this early.
36
00:06:02,292 --> 00:06:05,625
The only English words
I've learned are Goddamn.
37
00:06:05,750 --> 00:06:10,042
...shit and hungry.
38
00:06:10,167 --> 00:06:11,792
Hey, you Goddamns!
39
00:06:11,917 --> 00:06:15,375
We're hungry,
Jesus Christ to shit!
40
00:06:15,875 --> 00:06:17,792
We're hungry, understand?
41
00:06:22,875 --> 00:06:24,125
You never stop?
42
00:06:25,875 --> 00:06:27,417
You go on writing?
43
00:06:28,375 --> 00:06:29,875
We lost. It's all over.
44
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,583
Why.
45
00:06:31,708 --> 00:06:33,583
Don't start.
46
00:06:35,250 --> 00:06:36,333
They defeated us.
47
00:06:36,458 --> 00:06:37,500
Stop it.
48
00:06:40,542 --> 00:06:42,500
I can't take it.
I'm going crazy.
49
00:06:45,667 --> 00:06:48,042
Do you ever have doubts?
50
00:06:48,167 --> 00:06:50,250
I have doubts constantly,
Brien.
51
00:06:51,167 --> 00:06:52,208
Constantly.
52
00:06:53,875 --> 00:06:56,750
I wake up wondering how
I'll make it till night.
53
00:06:58,750 --> 00:07:00,917
It tears at me,
I feel it in here.
54
00:07:03,042 --> 00:07:04,583
Then it eases.
55
00:07:05,542 --> 00:07:08,083
All I know is if we give up,
it's over.
56
00:07:08,208 --> 00:07:09,250
It is over.
57
00:07:09,375 --> 00:07:11,375
No, it's never over.
58
00:07:11,917 --> 00:07:13,792
Not if we keep fighting.
59
00:07:14,375 --> 00:07:15,917
Why not admit it?
60
00:07:16,042 --> 00:07:17,083
Because.
61
00:07:17,208 --> 00:07:18,167
Because why?
62
00:07:18,292 --> 00:07:19,792
Because.
63
00:07:22,167 --> 00:07:23,708
Because I'm still alive.
64
00:07:25,083 --> 00:07:26,625
It's what life's about.
65
00:07:28,750 --> 00:07:30,375
But fighting for what?
66
00:07:32,458 --> 00:07:34,500
We're all alone, behind bars.
67
00:07:34,625 --> 00:07:38,042
Outside, people are grovelling,
grateful for crumbs.
68
00:07:38,167 --> 00:07:39,792
To hell with them.
69
00:07:39,917 --> 00:07:41,333
Let 'em do what they want.
70
00:07:42,458 --> 00:07:44,417
I want independence for me.
71
00:07:44,542 --> 00:07:45,708
It's hopeless.
72
00:07:45,833 --> 00:07:47,125
Listen to me.
73
00:07:48,208 --> 00:07:50,792
If we cave in now, here,
74
00:07:51,750 --> 00:07:53,375
they'll crush us for good.
75
00:07:54,417 --> 00:07:56,000
So we have to keep fighting.
76
00:07:57,583 --> 00:08:01,083
Fight for every sip of water,
every crust of bread.
77
00:08:01,208 --> 00:08:02,625
Every day, every second.
78
00:08:04,333 --> 00:08:05,625
We have no choice.
79
00:08:13,250 --> 00:08:14,625
We must keep going.
80
00:08:18,792 --> 00:08:20,208
We must resist.
81
00:08:22,250 --> 00:08:23,583
It's our only hope.
82
00:09:11,208 --> 00:09:12,417
The coffins.
83
00:09:13,792 --> 00:09:18,333
I have the coffins.
Co... co... "cofin"...
84
00:09:21,167 --> 00:09:23,333
I don't understand.
85
00:09:25,625 --> 00:09:27,583
I think he wants that paper.
86
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,042
How many men are in prison?
87
00:09:37,167 --> 00:09:38,500
Patriots?
88
00:09:39,125 --> 00:09:40,292
About 800 men.
89
00:09:40,417 --> 00:09:41,750
How many to hang?
90
00:09:42,458 --> 00:09:44,125
There were 99.
91
00:09:44,250 --> 00:09:45,833
They've already hung 7.
92
00:09:46,500 --> 00:09:48,333
So there are 92 left?
93
00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:56,750
Open the doors!
94
00:09:56,875 --> 00:09:58,667
Alright.
95
00:10:12,375 --> 00:10:14,042
They hang the Patriots here?
96
00:10:14,167 --> 00:10:15,250
Yes.
97
00:10:18,042 --> 00:10:19,667
Tell me what happened, Papa.
98
00:10:21,208 --> 00:10:22,375
I can't.
99
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:24,250
I want you to tell me.
100
00:10:24,375 --> 00:10:26,917
I can't tell you.
I just can't.
101
00:10:27,875 --> 00:10:29,250
You must.
102
00:10:29,375 --> 00:10:30,875
You must tell me.
103
00:10:33,542 --> 00:10:35,000
I can't talk about it.
104
00:10:39,292 --> 00:10:41,833
When will we get
straw and blankets?
105
00:10:41,958 --> 00:10:42,958
Don't ask me.
106
00:10:43,083 --> 00:10:45,500
For 4 months
we've been freezing.
107
00:10:45,625 --> 00:10:48,458
Even thieves get straw
and two blankets.
108
00:10:48,583 --> 00:10:51,333
They treat us Patriots worse
than dogs.
109
00:10:51,458 --> 00:10:53,042
I just do what I'm told.
110
00:10:53,167 --> 00:10:54,417
Don't forget my candles.
111
00:10:54,542 --> 00:10:56,167
The fat ones.
112
00:10:56,292 --> 00:10:57,750
not the ones the nuns use.
113
00:11:09,750 --> 00:11:11,875
This loaf doesn't weight
one pound.
114
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,583
Stop complaining.
115
00:11:14,708 --> 00:11:17,125
McGill has to line his pockets
somehow.
116
00:11:20,917 --> 00:11:22,500
It tastes like sawdust.
117
00:11:25,833 --> 00:11:29,375
In France we call it
baker's scourge.
118
00:11:45,875 --> 00:11:46,958
Thanks, Joseph.
119
00:12:28,042 --> 00:12:29,083
Five came in.
120
00:12:31,542 --> 00:12:32,708
Five came in.
121
00:12:32,833 --> 00:12:33,833
Five.
122
00:12:36,167 --> 00:12:37,208
Five came in.
123
00:12:37,333 --> 00:12:38,583
Christ!
124
00:12:39,792 --> 00:12:41,167
Five came in.
125
00:12:42,292 --> 00:12:44,167
- What?
- Five. They got five.
126
00:13:06,083 --> 00:13:07,542
You just keep at it.
127
00:13:09,375 --> 00:13:10,750
How do you do it?
128
00:13:11,833 --> 00:13:12,708
Aren't you afraid?
129
00:13:14,750 --> 00:13:15,750
Of course I am.
130
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:17,875
What choice do I have?
131
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,000
Sit around all day brooding?
132
00:13:20,125 --> 00:13:21,083
I'd go crazy.
133
00:13:23,042 --> 00:13:24,292
Listen to me.
134
00:13:24,417 --> 00:13:26,417
There are 92 men and 5 coffins.
135
00:13:27,875 --> 00:13:29,708
I've always hated lotteries.
136
00:14:24,375 --> 00:14:26,042
We have to occupy the men.
137
00:14:26,167 --> 00:14:27,500
They'll get discouraged.
138
00:14:28,917 --> 00:14:30,792
What about the classes?
139
00:14:30,917 --> 00:14:33,333
Lewis will lecture
on Irish history.
140
00:14:34,125 --> 00:14:35,417
Is he ready?
141
00:14:35,542 --> 00:14:37,250
No, maybe next week.
142
00:14:39,708 --> 00:14:41,583
And Payeur wants to teach music.
143
00:14:43,625 --> 00:14:45,917
I'm working
on the Union proposal.
144
00:14:46,042 --> 00:14:47,042
Still worried?
145
00:14:47,167 --> 00:14:49,833
They've talked about it
for 30 years.
146
00:14:49,958 --> 00:14:53,292
With political conditions now
it's a real threat.
147
00:14:55,542 --> 00:14:58,792
They'll do the same thing
as in Ireland in 1800.
148
00:14:58,917 --> 00:15:00,292
What do you mean?
149
00:15:00,417 --> 00:15:03,542
They crushed
the revolt of 1798,
150
00:15:03,667 --> 00:15:06,083
then passed
the Union Act by force.
151
00:15:08,042 --> 00:15:10,917
Just like in Scotland in 1707.
152
00:15:16,583 --> 00:15:19,417
With the Union,
they'll make us a minority.
153
00:15:19,958 --> 00:15:21,458
Exactly.
154
00:15:21,583 --> 00:15:23,750
A conquered people,
annexed by force.
155
00:15:28,083 --> 00:15:29,625
They call it the Rule of Law.
156
00:15:32,833 --> 00:15:34,167
Where are your boys?
157
00:15:36,042 --> 00:15:37,500
One's in the States.
158
00:15:37,625 --> 00:15:38,792
The other.
159
00:15:40,875 --> 00:15:42,583
Hey, the Goddamns!
160
00:15:48,500 --> 00:15:50,625
Gentlemen, please.
161
00:15:51,708 --> 00:15:52,750
Lieutenant Elliot.
162
00:15:56,333 --> 00:15:58,292
Order of the Court.
163
00:16:01,042 --> 00:16:02,250
His Excellency...
164
00:16:02,375 --> 00:16:06,417
Sir John Colborne, Lieutenant
General Commander
165
00:16:06,542 --> 00:16:09,667
of the Forces in the provinces
of Lower and Upper Canada,
166
00:16:09,792 --> 00:16:12,208
and the Administrator of the
Government
167
00:16:12,333 --> 00:16:14,958
of the said province
of Lower Canada has decided...
168
00:16:17,583 --> 00:16:19,167
...that Charles Hindelang
169
00:16:19,292 --> 00:16:21,750
and Marie-Thomas
Chevalier de Lorimier
170
00:16:21,875 --> 00:16:23,708
shall be hanged by the neck...
171
00:16:25,042 --> 00:16:25,958
...tomorrow,
172
00:16:26,083 --> 00:16:28,125
February the 15th,
173
00:16:28,250 --> 00:16:30,250
1839...
174
00:16:30,375 --> 00:16:32,208
...'til they be dead.
175
00:18:43,542 --> 00:18:45,500
You look like
you're at a wake!
176
00:18:45,625 --> 00:18:47,792
The blockheads can see you!
177
00:18:47,917 --> 00:18:49,667
Don't let them break you.
178
00:18:52,875 --> 00:18:54,458
Are we rebels, bloody hell?
179
00:18:57,458 --> 00:18:59,167
Show some dignity, dammit!
180
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:02,750
Hey, you on the second floor!
181
00:19:04,042 --> 00:19:05,292
Lewis, give me a hand.
182
00:19:07,167 --> 00:19:08,458
Answer, someone!
183
00:19:11,667 --> 00:19:12,917
You, down below!
184
00:19:16,292 --> 00:19:17,542
What?
185
00:19:17,667 --> 00:19:20,208
Were any of you named?
No one up here.
186
00:19:22,792 --> 00:19:25,625
Hindelang and De Lorimier.
187
00:19:26,250 --> 00:19:27,500
And in the hole?
188
00:19:28,083 --> 00:19:29,625
Here, Narbonne.
189
00:19:30,833 --> 00:19:32,333
You over there, any word?
190
00:19:32,458 --> 00:19:34,375
Here they took Nicolas,
191
00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:36,958
and in the east block
Amable Daunais.
192
00:19:39,250 --> 00:19:40,417
Amable!
193
00:19:41,083 --> 00:19:43,167
Courage, men! Courage!
194
00:21:01,708 --> 00:21:02,958
Come in.
195
00:21:07,458 --> 00:21:08,542
Come in.
196
00:21:24,958 --> 00:21:26,167
I'm afraid.
197
00:21:33,250 --> 00:21:35,458
I knew it might end like this.
198
00:21:39,042 --> 00:21:41,125
The night of our pledge.
199
00:21:41,250 --> 00:21:42,208
Remember?
200
00:21:42,333 --> 00:21:43,458
Yeah.
201
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,583
"Liberty or death."
202
00:21:49,542 --> 00:21:51,333
I knew there was a price
to pay.
203
00:21:55,042 --> 00:21:56,708
But it's not so simple.
204
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,500
I just hope my legs
will carry me tomorrow.
205
00:22:07,458 --> 00:22:09,208
I want to die with honour.
206
00:22:13,333 --> 00:22:14,667
And the three others?
207
00:22:16,375 --> 00:22:19,667
Daunais, Nicolas and Narbonne.
208
00:22:29,333 --> 00:22:30,500
Anything I can do?
209
00:22:30,625 --> 00:22:32,042
No thanks.
210
00:22:35,333 --> 00:22:36,208
Xavier.
211
00:22:40,750 --> 00:22:41,792
My wife.
212
00:22:53,042 --> 00:22:54,458
They can't.
213
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,292
Not Daunais.
214
00:23:00,292 --> 00:23:01,292
Not Daunais.
215
00:23:17,333 --> 00:23:18,625
What am I doing?
216
00:23:21,042 --> 00:23:22,083
You're about to.
217
00:23:23,208 --> 00:23:24,458
And it's me who.
218
00:23:28,333 --> 00:23:29,708
Forgive me.
219
00:23:30,167 --> 00:23:31,500
Don't apologize.
220
00:23:33,167 --> 00:23:34,875
We're still human beings.
221
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,625
They can't take that away.
222
00:23:40,708 --> 00:23:42,083
Poor Lévesque.
223
00:23:45,292 --> 00:23:48,417
It's only natural.
Daunais's like his brother.
224
00:23:48,542 --> 00:23:50,375
Do you know the two others?
225
00:23:51,333 --> 00:23:52,292
Well, Nicolas.
226
00:23:52,417 --> 00:23:55,208
All I know is he's from Quebec
City.
227
00:23:55,333 --> 00:23:56,500
Narbonne?
228
00:23:57,625 --> 00:24:00,333
You know, the one-armed guy
from St-Éduard.
229
00:24:00,458 --> 00:24:03,583
Right, his wife died
while he was in prison.
230
00:24:03,708 --> 00:24:05,958
The Goddamns burned his farm.
231
00:24:06,083 --> 00:24:08,500
His three kids were left
paupers.
232
00:24:09,708 --> 00:24:11,750
Let me tell you,
233
00:24:11,875 --> 00:24:15,792
his only regret is
not killing more of them.
234
00:24:15,917 --> 00:24:18,083
No wonder he's full of rage.
235
00:24:30,708 --> 00:24:32,583
How are you, Mr. Dumouchel?
236
00:24:32,708 --> 00:24:34,500
Today, not so good.
237
00:24:35,708 --> 00:24:38,333
My Lord, five more men.
238
00:24:39,583 --> 00:24:41,208
When will it end?
239
00:24:41,333 --> 00:24:42,667
It'll never end.
240
00:24:43,625 --> 00:24:46,667
They won't give up
till they've killed us all.
241
00:24:47,042 --> 00:24:47,958
Keep faith.
242
00:24:49,208 --> 00:24:50,167
Thanks, Sister.
243
00:24:50,292 --> 00:24:52,042
Remember us in your prayers.
244
00:24:52,167 --> 00:24:53,375
The Lord keep you.
245
00:24:54,542 --> 00:24:56,833
- Courage, M. Primeau.
- Thanks, Mother.
246
00:24:58,625 --> 00:25:01,667
Thank your countrymen.
Their alms are for you.
247
00:25:02,667 --> 00:25:04,000
You're not forgotten.
248
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,625
Thank them for us.
249
00:25:09,167 --> 00:25:10,208
M. Laberge.
250
00:25:10,333 --> 00:25:11,625
Thank you, Sister.
251
00:25:12,375 --> 00:25:15,667
We'd starve on the rations they
give us.
252
00:25:17,625 --> 00:25:19,917
Shut yer trap,
you lily-livered ass.
253
00:25:21,917 --> 00:25:23,333
Get stuffed, blockhead.
254
00:25:26,667 --> 00:25:31,125
I said get stuffed,
and eat a bucketful of shit too!
255
00:25:31,250 --> 00:25:33,417
Sorry, Sister.
I couldn't help it.
256
00:25:33,542 --> 00:25:34,708
I didn't hear.
257
00:25:34,833 --> 00:25:37,000
I serve soup, not politics.
258
00:25:38,250 --> 00:25:40,708
Eat. bucketful. shit!
259
00:25:40,833 --> 00:25:42,292
Get it, pig brain?
260
00:25:42,792 --> 00:25:44,500
No? Shit.
261
00:25:44,792 --> 00:25:46,500
Big, big pile of shit.
262
00:25:47,042 --> 00:25:49,500
You eat pile, all of it.
263
00:25:57,333 --> 00:25:58,750
The money.
264
00:25:58,875 --> 00:26:00,042
Here.
265
00:26:00,625 --> 00:26:02,958
Tell Joseph to buy
whatever he can.
266
00:26:03,083 --> 00:26:06,375
Wine, lots of cider, and rum,
267
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,000
especially rum.
268
00:26:08,125 --> 00:26:11,042
Charles,
rum comes from Jamaica.
269
00:26:11,583 --> 00:26:14,083
Why do you bug me
about Jamaica?
270
00:26:14,208 --> 00:26:15,667
The Goddamns own Jamaica.
271
00:26:15,792 --> 00:26:17,375
No imports.
272
00:26:17,500 --> 00:26:19,583
Not a cent in taxes
for the English.
273
00:26:20,375 --> 00:26:22,000
That's true, shit!
274
00:26:23,500 --> 00:26:25,125
Damn the embargo.
275
00:26:26,375 --> 00:26:27,583
You're such a pain.
276
00:26:28,542 --> 00:26:29,708
Rum's good.
277
00:26:30,542 --> 00:26:31,833
Not a cent.
278
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,333
All right, let it go.
279
00:26:43,375 --> 00:26:45,750
Maybe I got talked into this.
280
00:26:50,208 --> 00:26:51,417
Not me.
281
00:26:53,500 --> 00:26:55,125
I was a Son of Liberty.
282
00:26:56,333 --> 00:26:58,833
When O'Callaghan's newspaper
was ransacked,
283
00:26:59,917 --> 00:27:01,750
tens of the bastards grabbed me.
284
00:27:02,750 --> 00:27:04,958
They beat me with pick handles.
285
00:27:05,958 --> 00:27:07,875
De Lorimier had been shot,
286
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:09,375
but he jumped in to help me.
287
00:27:11,417 --> 00:27:13,625
Without him, I'd be dead.
288
00:27:15,375 --> 00:27:17,208
I've followed him ever since.
289
00:27:17,917 --> 00:27:20,708
At St-Eustache, Ste-Martine,
Beauharnois.
290
00:27:23,042 --> 00:27:25,500
I'd go to hell with him.
291
00:27:27,208 --> 00:27:28,542
We're there now.
292
00:27:50,083 --> 00:27:51,500
They're frozen solid.
293
00:27:53,833 --> 00:27:55,167
I'll put those away.
294
00:27:55,750 --> 00:27:56,833
Do it later.
295
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,125
We have to talk.
296
00:28:02,875 --> 00:28:04,792
I can't stay with him tonight.
297
00:28:06,042 --> 00:28:07,500
This is all my fault.
298
00:28:10,208 --> 00:28:11,875
I can take your place.
299
00:28:14,125 --> 00:28:15,500
I'll talk to him.
300
00:28:24,750 --> 00:28:26,125
I saved you one.
301
00:28:26,750 --> 00:28:28,292
My mother sent them.
302
00:28:29,875 --> 00:28:31,333
Thanks, I'm not hungry.
303
00:28:32,375 --> 00:28:34,542
Want me to leave the plate?
304
00:28:34,667 --> 00:28:35,792
No, don't bother.
305
00:28:37,542 --> 00:28:39,583
Jacques will eat it.
306
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:43,667
Brien.
307
00:28:48,333 --> 00:28:49,833
the confession you signed.
308
00:28:51,167 --> 00:28:52,667
You're not to blame.
309
00:28:54,208 --> 00:28:56,500
By deciding to court martial us,
310
00:28:57,208 --> 00:28:59,625
they didn't need it
to declare us guilty.
311
00:29:01,250 --> 00:29:04,375
This is about politics,
not the law.
312
00:29:06,875 --> 00:29:08,500
Save your strength.
313
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,625
You'll need it.
314
00:29:23,333 --> 00:29:24,542
When this is over,
315
00:29:27,167 --> 00:29:29,458
I'd like you and Brien
at the autopsy.
316
00:29:37,292 --> 00:29:38,833
I'd also like you
317
00:29:40,542 --> 00:29:42,292
to see they send
318
00:29:44,667 --> 00:29:45,958
my heart to Mother.
319
00:29:51,167 --> 00:29:52,667
Brien will get my boots,
320
00:29:56,708 --> 00:29:58,000
the Baron, my helmet.
321
00:29:59,333 --> 00:30:00,667
The Baron?
322
00:30:00,792 --> 00:30:02,292
Fratellin, the Hungarian.
323
00:30:06,792 --> 00:30:08,750
Give my greatcoat to Morin.
324
00:30:12,667 --> 00:30:14,208
And my knife to Pacot.
325
00:30:14,333 --> 00:30:15,542
Not so fast!
326
00:30:16,875 --> 00:30:18,208
He gave it to me.
327
00:30:22,875 --> 00:30:24,292
You keep my jacket.
328
00:30:27,208 --> 00:30:28,833
It was a gift from Dr Davignon.
329
00:30:32,583 --> 00:30:34,417
Give my other clothes to Joseph.
330
00:30:42,625 --> 00:30:43,583
Is that it?
331
00:30:44,667 --> 00:30:46,000
That's all I own.
332
00:30:51,208 --> 00:30:52,667
It's about submission.
333
00:30:53,958 --> 00:30:57,625
La Boétie wants to understand
why so many men obey like dogs
334
00:30:57,750 --> 00:30:59,042
without rebelling.
335
00:30:59,708 --> 00:31:00,500
Like here.
336
00:31:01,917 --> 00:31:03,167
Yeah, more or less.
337
00:31:05,958 --> 00:31:08,958
Would you mind reading
some to me and my brother?
338
00:31:11,708 --> 00:31:12,625
With pleasure.
339
00:31:17,833 --> 00:31:18,833
All right.
340
00:31:21,250 --> 00:31:24,875
"The first reason
why men serve willingly
341
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,542
"is they are born and raised
in bondage.
342
00:31:28,875 --> 00:31:32,333
"Additionally, and as a result
thereof, tyranny renders men
343
00:31:33,333 --> 00:31:35,000
cowardly and effeminate."
344
00:31:36,042 --> 00:31:38,500
Sure is hard to understand.
345
00:31:39,333 --> 00:31:41,417
Yeah, but try.
It's worth the effort.
346
00:31:43,250 --> 00:31:46,542
"The people,
once is has been subjugated,
347
00:31:46,667 --> 00:31:50,875
"quickly fall into such profound
forgetfulness of their franchise
348
00:31:51,708 --> 00:31:54,458
they cannot reawaken to obtain
it."
349
00:31:55,167 --> 00:31:57,042
Franchise means freedom.
350
00:31:58,125 --> 00:32:00,917
Frank, French have the same
root.
351
00:32:02,333 --> 00:32:06,000
"The people begin to serve,
so freely and willingly,
352
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,042
"one would think
they hadn't lost their freedom,
353
00:32:10,167 --> 00:32:12,375
"but rather gained their
servitude.
354
00:32:14,458 --> 00:32:17,375
"It is true that at first
one feels constrained
355
00:32:17,500 --> 00:32:19,458
"and defeated by force,
356
00:32:19,583 --> 00:32:21,167
"but those born later,
357
00:32:22,250 --> 00:32:24,000
"never having known freedom
358
00:32:25,083 --> 00:32:26,750
"and being ignorant of it,
359
00:32:27,542 --> 00:32:29,333
"serve without regret
360
00:32:29,458 --> 00:32:32,542
"and willingly do as their
ancestors were forced to.
361
00:32:34,583 --> 00:32:36,583
"Men who are born
under the yoke,
362
00:32:36,708 --> 00:32:39,167
"born and raised in servitude
363
00:32:39,292 --> 00:32:41,667
"live happily as they were born.
364
00:32:43,292 --> 00:32:46,958
They mistake for their nature
the condition of their birth."
365
00:32:49,792 --> 00:32:52,167
You're different.
You can write.
366
00:32:52,292 --> 00:32:54,417
Me, I never learned my letters.
367
00:32:55,917 --> 00:32:57,292
Look at my hands.
368
00:32:58,167 --> 00:32:59,792
Misshapen hands.
369
00:33:00,833 --> 00:33:03,875
Hands made to grasp
the handle of a hoe or an axe.
370
00:33:05,708 --> 00:33:07,500
I could've strangled that
Goddamn Ellice
371
00:33:07,625 --> 00:33:09,792
when we stormed his manor.
372
00:33:10,500 --> 00:33:12,833
Him and his family of Goddamns.
373
00:33:14,417 --> 00:33:16,875
All the land the wretches took
from us,
374
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,708
a million and a half acres,
dammit!
375
00:33:21,667 --> 00:33:23,083
When I think of it!
376
00:33:23,833 --> 00:33:26,250
A million and a half acres
to enrich parasites
377
00:33:26,375 --> 00:33:28,208
who don't even live here!
378
00:33:29,208 --> 00:33:30,875
Speculators, the lot.
379
00:33:31,708 --> 00:33:35,500
I toiled like a beast, dawn to
dusk, and now I have nothing.
380
00:33:35,625 --> 00:33:37,958
They took everything.
There's nothing left.
381
00:33:41,417 --> 00:33:43,167
That's why I fought.
382
00:33:45,042 --> 00:33:48,042
Because of that
and their other evil deeds.
383
00:33:52,167 --> 00:33:53,417
You see these hands?
384
00:33:54,750 --> 00:33:56,292
They were made to pray,
385
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,417
to cut bread,
386
00:34:02,333 --> 00:34:04,083
to hold my grandchildren.
387
00:34:06,458 --> 00:34:09,958
With these hands,
I just want to say thank you.
388
00:34:14,667 --> 00:34:16,458
No need to thank me.
389
00:34:18,125 --> 00:34:20,875
You'll tell them,
you'll talk about my hands?
390
00:34:23,542 --> 00:34:25,250
Yes, I'll tell them.
391
00:34:28,292 --> 00:34:29,250
Baptiste?
392
00:34:31,375 --> 00:34:34,583
This is the outline
for my text on the Union Act.
393
00:34:35,708 --> 00:34:37,417
The classes must be given.
394
00:34:39,083 --> 00:34:40,542
Will you read it to me?
395
00:34:44,250 --> 00:34:45,875
It's just an introduction.
396
00:34:49,500 --> 00:34:52,875
"A) Terror as a political
instrument
397
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,667
of the British Empire;
"a calculated terror.
398
00:34:56,875 --> 00:35:00,042
"First, quash the spirit of
resistance.
399
00:35:00,833 --> 00:35:04,792
"Second, create among the
vanquished a sense of fatalism.
400
00:35:04,917 --> 00:35:07,667
"Third, convince them
of your generosity.
401
00:35:08,667 --> 00:35:12,208
"B) Ensure acceptable conditions
for the vanquished;
402
00:35:12,333 --> 00:35:13,917
"an imperial policy.
403
00:35:14,042 --> 00:35:17,792
The Roman and Ottoman
empires, the Persians."
404
00:35:23,542 --> 00:35:24,875
I was working on C.
405
00:35:29,958 --> 00:35:32,417
When you stroke,
put your head in the water.
406
00:35:43,792 --> 00:35:44,667
Breathe, stroke.
407
00:35:50,625 --> 00:35:51,708
Swimming.
408
00:35:53,208 --> 00:35:55,000
Can't you see, numskull?
409
00:35:55,125 --> 00:35:57,667
We're learning to swim, jerk!
410
00:36:00,042 --> 00:36:01,792
Anyone. has ailments?
411
00:36:02,458 --> 00:36:03,458
Yeah,
412
00:36:04,292 --> 00:36:05,417
me.
413
00:36:05,542 --> 00:36:07,583
My stomach fever is back.
414
00:36:10,167 --> 00:36:11,792
Stick out tongue.
415
00:36:16,208 --> 00:36:18,708
Two a day, four days.
416
00:36:21,625 --> 00:36:22,750
Me.
417
00:36:22,875 --> 00:36:24,958
My legs are covered in sores.
418
00:36:26,167 --> 00:36:27,542
Trousers up.
419
00:36:32,375 --> 00:36:34,625
Not serious, go away soon.
420
00:36:36,583 --> 00:36:39,250
Two a day, four days.
421
00:36:44,833 --> 00:36:46,458
Gentlemen!
422
00:36:48,542 --> 00:36:50,042
Old bastard!
423
00:36:50,167 --> 00:36:51,625
Drunk as a skunk!
424
00:36:51,750 --> 00:36:54,333
With that quack
we may as well pray.
425
00:36:54,458 --> 00:36:56,167
Always the same damn pills
426
00:36:56,292 --> 00:36:58,542
if you have a headache
or the runs.
427
00:36:59,125 --> 00:37:00,250
Old louse.
428
00:37:01,417 --> 00:37:03,417
Two a day, four days!
429
00:37:04,667 --> 00:37:06,042
He only gave me 7.
430
00:37:06,167 --> 00:37:08,000
Here, have mine.
431
00:37:08,125 --> 00:37:10,167
Prisonners walk.
432
00:37:45,250 --> 00:37:47,000
What really saddens me is,
433
00:37:49,083 --> 00:37:50,875
I won't see the spring.
434
00:37:56,333 --> 00:37:57,792
Trees are beautiful.
435
00:38:01,542 --> 00:38:05,500
I remember the apple trees
in bloom in spring, in Chiddes.
436
00:38:08,167 --> 00:38:11,500
I planted the trees
with my neighbour, old Jean.
437
00:38:13,208 --> 00:38:14,875
Forty-seven apple trees.
438
00:38:17,875 --> 00:38:19,958
That's all I'm leaving behind.
439
00:38:21,708 --> 00:38:23,250
Forty-seven apple trees.
440
00:38:24,625 --> 00:38:25,875
You understand?
441
00:38:28,042 --> 00:38:29,750
Bloody hell.
442
00:38:29,875 --> 00:38:32,542
I do hope Jean looks after them,
443
00:38:34,542 --> 00:38:36,000
when I'm gone.
444
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:40,875
Bloody hell!
445
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,167
Hey! Keep apart!
446
00:38:45,375 --> 00:38:47,292
Come on!
447
00:38:47,833 --> 00:38:49,750
Keep apart!
448
00:38:49,875 --> 00:38:51,833
Go ahead, shoot, you bugger!
449
00:38:52,625 --> 00:38:54,000
Shoot, if you're a man!
450
00:38:54,833 --> 00:38:56,167
What you waiting for?
451
00:38:57,875 --> 00:38:59,708
Let's have done with it!
452
00:39:00,667 --> 00:39:02,500
Alright, that's enough!
453
00:39:02,625 --> 00:39:04,500
Leave 'em alone!
454
00:39:05,750 --> 00:39:08,542
We're soldiers,
we're not murderers.
455
00:39:10,375 --> 00:39:12,417
Alright!
456
00:39:12,542 --> 00:39:14,083
Anyway, we're hanging him
tomorrow.
457
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,292
I'm really, very sorry.
458
00:39:26,875 --> 00:39:29,292
I'm a peasant like you people.
459
00:39:29,417 --> 00:39:32,792
The landlord threw me
off my land.
460
00:39:34,042 --> 00:39:36,542
They were no jobs in England.
461
00:39:36,667 --> 00:39:39,292
My family was starving.
462
00:39:41,417 --> 00:39:43,292
I have children too.
463
00:39:44,417 --> 00:39:46,917
"Enfants", you know?
464
00:39:51,667 --> 00:39:54,542
I don't really like all this,
but I only am doing my job.
465
00:39:58,042 --> 00:39:59,917
Please forgive me.
466
00:40:00,042 --> 00:40:03,750
Try to understand.
467
00:40:03,875 --> 00:40:06,417
I'm a soldier.
468
00:40:06,542 --> 00:40:08,917
I'm following orders.
469
00:40:11,917 --> 00:40:14,000
Please, juste say something.
470
00:40:16,208 --> 00:40:18,542
I'm innocent, it's not my fault.
471
00:40:55,125 --> 00:40:56,500
Stow it there.
472
00:41:06,375 --> 00:41:07,875
How's Charles doing?
473
00:41:09,083 --> 00:41:11,333
You know him,
putting on a good show.
474
00:41:12,667 --> 00:41:14,000
As usual.
475
00:41:14,917 --> 00:41:16,333
You can always count on him.
476
00:41:17,583 --> 00:41:18,583
Like you.
477
00:41:25,917 --> 00:41:27,708
I'm glad you're here, Prieur.
478
00:41:29,167 --> 00:41:30,333
Me too.
479
00:41:46,208 --> 00:41:47,833
Look, you see your g?
480
00:41:48,750 --> 00:41:51,250
You have to raise
its little tail.
481
00:41:53,208 --> 00:41:54,833
I'll raise your little tail!
482
00:42:05,917 --> 00:42:08,000
You old fool!
483
00:42:08,125 --> 00:42:10,375
I'm going to trounce you good.
484
00:42:10,500 --> 00:42:11,750
Big talker.
485
00:42:15,750 --> 00:42:17,250
C'mon, let's see!
486
00:42:18,083 --> 00:42:19,833
Don't give up, Lévesque.
487
00:42:22,625 --> 00:42:25,167
Watch what the champ can do!
488
00:42:38,500 --> 00:42:40,583
Can't you play
something livelier?
489
00:42:41,708 --> 00:42:43,583
C'mon, Payeur!
490
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,208
Mademoiselle,
491
00:42:51,375 --> 00:42:53,458
may I have the pleasure
of this dance?
492
00:44:30,625 --> 00:44:32,167
I couldn't see the Governor.
493
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,708
His wife received me.
We talked half an hour.
494
00:44:35,833 --> 00:44:37,500
She was very kind.
495
00:44:38,417 --> 00:44:40,750
She says her husband
might pardon you if.
496
00:44:40,875 --> 00:44:42,042
But why?
497
00:44:42,167 --> 00:44:43,458
I can't lose you!
498
00:44:43,583 --> 00:44:45,875
Why'd you crawl to that scum?
499
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,958
What will I do if you die?
500
00:44:49,583 --> 00:44:51,708
Some things we must not do.
501
00:44:51,833 --> 00:44:53,083
I love you, Thomas.
502
00:44:53,208 --> 00:44:55,625
You're all that matters to me.
503
00:44:55,750 --> 00:44:58,000
I'd do anything to save you,
you hear?
504
00:44:58,833 --> 00:44:59,958
Anything.
505
00:45:00,083 --> 00:45:02,083
That's all they want,
506
00:45:03,125 --> 00:45:05,375
for us to beg for grace,
to grovel.
507
00:45:05,500 --> 00:45:06,750
Those thieves!
508
00:45:06,875 --> 00:45:08,542
80 years of exploitation.
509
00:45:08,667 --> 00:45:10,083
I can't lose you.
510
00:45:10,208 --> 00:45:11,458
It's you I love,
511
00:45:12,042 --> 00:45:13,250
not your revolution.
512
00:45:13,375 --> 00:45:15,167
You're my homeland.
513
00:45:16,417 --> 00:45:18,417
They're making you pay
for the others.
514
00:45:20,708 --> 00:45:21,750
Not for the others!
515
00:45:23,667 --> 00:45:26,625
I'm not a victim.
I'm not a missionary.
516
00:45:26,750 --> 00:45:29,167
I despise victims. They're weak.
517
00:45:30,417 --> 00:45:33,083
It was my decision.
I'm fighting for myself!
518
00:45:33,208 --> 00:45:35,208
I can never accept.
519
00:45:35,333 --> 00:45:37,208
Enough of this talk.
520
00:45:37,333 --> 00:45:40,833
Those are only words, phrases.
It's only politics.
521
00:45:40,958 --> 00:45:43,167
The people, liberty, nation.
522
00:45:43,958 --> 00:45:47,292
What matters is life, not words.
523
00:45:47,417 --> 00:45:49,167
Think of me for once.
524
00:45:50,125 --> 00:45:52,375
Think of the children for once.
525
00:45:52,500 --> 00:45:54,250
Just once!
526
00:45:55,667 --> 00:45:56,958
Stop it.
527
00:45:59,500 --> 00:46:01,083
I'm sorry.
528
00:46:06,958 --> 00:46:08,542
I'm sorry.
529
00:47:37,083 --> 00:47:38,625
They're setting the ropes.
530
00:47:40,167 --> 00:47:42,000
One's arranging the traps.
531
00:47:48,958 --> 00:47:51,083
The pigs have the coffins.
532
00:47:52,708 --> 00:47:54,583
I hate those bastards.
533
00:47:57,875 --> 00:47:58,875
Not enough.
534
00:48:01,208 --> 00:48:02,583
What did you say?
535
00:48:04,375 --> 00:48:06,375
I said, not enough.
536
00:48:08,875 --> 00:48:10,792
You still don't
hate them enough.
537
00:48:12,083 --> 00:48:15,208
You could never hate them
the way I hate them.
538
00:48:16,333 --> 00:48:18,708
Everything they did to us
in Ireland.
539
00:48:22,333 --> 00:48:26,542
You cannot imagine
how much I hate them.
540
00:48:30,667 --> 00:48:32,208
It's like a fire.
541
00:48:34,417 --> 00:48:36,042
It consumes me.
542
00:48:39,375 --> 00:48:40,875
Touch me.
543
00:48:42,750 --> 00:48:44,000
there.
544
00:48:51,750 --> 00:48:54,125
That's your problem here.
545
00:48:55,750 --> 00:48:59,250
You're not capable of hate.
546
00:49:05,417 --> 00:49:07,333
Like some hot tea?
547
00:49:08,667 --> 00:49:11,375
Don't mind the mugs.
548
00:49:11,500 --> 00:49:13,500
Thank you, I'm freezing.
549
00:49:15,125 --> 00:49:17,417
Sorry, it's all we have.
550
00:49:17,542 --> 00:49:19,417
Thanks, that's all right.
551
00:49:19,542 --> 00:49:20,708
Thank you.
552
00:49:23,917 --> 00:49:26,292
In his report Lord Durham
writes:
553

"Assimilation to English habits
is already commencing.
554
00:49:31,292 --> 00:49:34,500
"English is gaining
as the language of the rich
555
00:49:34,625 --> 00:49:36,542
and of employers of labour."
556
00:49:36,667 --> 00:49:38,375
Who asked that bastard?
557
00:49:38,500 --> 00:49:41,167
Let him read.
For once we have a paper.
558
00:49:41,292 --> 00:49:44,417
"The government's first object
ought to
559
00:49:44,542 --> 00:49:47,333
be making it an English
Province."
560
00:49:47,458 --> 00:49:49,417
"Much time must elapse
before English
561
00:49:49,542 --> 00:49:51,417
spreads over the people.
562
00:49:52,375 --> 00:49:54,250
"We must determine if
563
00:49:54,375 --> 00:49:58,083
"the few French in Lower Canada
shall be made English now,
564
00:49:59,208 --> 00:50:01,333
"or if the process shall be
delayed
565
00:50:01,458 --> 00:50:03,250
until they are more numerous."
566
00:50:03,833 --> 00:50:05,792
Wash your socks
somewhere else!
567
00:50:05,917 --> 00:50:07,625
Sorry.
568
00:50:07,750 --> 00:50:10,625
Three times a week
you wash 'em and wet me.
569
00:50:10,750 --> 00:50:12,583
Afraid of getting sick?
570
00:50:12,708 --> 00:50:13,875
It was an accident.
571
00:50:15,208 --> 00:50:16,792
That'll do.
572
00:50:16,917 --> 00:50:18,583
Him and his damn socks!
573
00:50:18,708 --> 00:50:19,792
That'll do.
574
00:50:20,542 --> 00:50:23,167
I'm a foreigner too,
and a Protestant!
575
00:50:23,292 --> 00:50:25,167
You didn't come to rob us,
576
00:50:25,292 --> 00:50:27,875
but to fight,
like O'Callaghan and Brown.
577
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:29,042
So?
578
00:50:29,167 --> 00:50:32,083
The English set the immigrants
against us.
579
00:50:32,208 --> 00:50:35,417
Should we kiss their asses?
580
00:50:35,542 --> 00:50:38,750
Immigrants will always
defend their own interests.
581
00:50:38,875 --> 00:50:41,167
Why should they take
the weaker side?
582
00:50:41,292 --> 00:50:44,125
It's not true,
it's not normal.
583
00:50:44,250 --> 00:50:47,083
You're normal, Lewis is normal.
584
00:50:47,208 --> 00:50:50,208
We don't care where you're from,
585
00:50:50,333 --> 00:50:53,542
or if you're white, black,
yellow or green.
586
00:50:53,667 --> 00:50:56,750
All we care is if you're with us
or them.
587
00:50:56,875 --> 00:50:58,375
So simplistic.
588
00:50:58,500 --> 00:51:00,208
Yes, I'm simplistic.
589
00:51:00,333 --> 00:51:03,042
If you're with me,
you're my brother.
590
00:51:03,167 --> 00:51:06,125
If not, wherever you're from,
I hate you.
591
00:51:06,250 --> 00:51:07,792
You're a dirty dog.
592
00:51:13,417 --> 00:51:14,708
I helped her.
593
00:51:14,833 --> 00:51:17,375
Look, this is you.
594
00:51:18,625 --> 00:51:20,958
Me, François.
595
00:51:21,625 --> 00:51:22,750
Marguerite.
596
00:51:22,875 --> 00:51:24,125
This is her.
597
00:51:24,250 --> 00:51:25,667
Here's the grass.
598
00:51:26,542 --> 00:51:27,792
Look, a duck,
599
00:51:28,500 --> 00:51:29,875
a baby rabbit.
600
00:51:33,458 --> 00:51:35,583
She asked me to stitch this.
601
00:51:54,083 --> 00:51:56,458
The prison. What's this?
602
00:51:56,583 --> 00:51:58,375
The firebird rescuing you.
603
00:52:00,083 --> 00:52:01,875
- Does she know?
- No.
604
00:52:03,167 --> 00:52:05,750
She asks when you'll be out.
She misses you.
605
00:52:06,917 --> 00:52:08,333
Does she understand?
606
00:52:09,583 --> 00:52:11,125
Last week she asked me,
607
00:52:11,250 --> 00:52:13,708
"Why are the soldiers
so mean to Papa?"
608
00:52:15,167 --> 00:52:16,417
What did you say?
609
00:52:17,250 --> 00:52:18,833
What can you say to that?
610
00:52:26,875 --> 00:52:28,167
How's school going?
611
00:52:28,875 --> 00:52:31,542
Fine. Sister St-Pierre
encourages her.
612
00:52:33,375 --> 00:52:35,750
I love seeing her write.
613
00:52:35,875 --> 00:52:39,583
She copies her letters, her
tongue stuck out, so serious.
614
00:52:42,875 --> 00:52:45,583
She's discovered your old globe.
615
00:52:46,833 --> 00:52:50,125
She asks me, "Where's France?
Where's England?
616
00:52:50,958 --> 00:52:52,375
Where do we live?"
617
00:53:01,417 --> 00:53:05,333
And Marguerite? Does she
still dress up in your clothes?
618
00:53:06,250 --> 00:53:07,417
All the time.
619
00:53:07,542 --> 00:53:09,958
With you gone, she's impossible.
620
00:53:10,083 --> 00:53:12,958
Won't get dressed or eat.
I'm at my wit's end.
621
00:53:15,375 --> 00:53:16,667
She'll get over it.
622
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:21,083
At her age Léopoldine
was the same.
623
00:53:23,583 --> 00:53:25,542
Yesterday I was washing
the dishes.
624
00:53:26,708 --> 00:53:30,083
She asked me,
"Mama, what's liberty?"
625
00:53:38,708 --> 00:53:40,083
Daunais's calling.
626
00:53:52,833 --> 00:53:53,958
Amable?
627
00:53:54,542 --> 00:53:55,792
It's Guillaume.
628
00:53:56,167 --> 00:53:57,125
You know?
629
00:53:58,875 --> 00:54:00,000
Yeah.
630
00:54:00,875 --> 00:54:02,583
I'm scared, Guillaume.
631
00:54:02,708 --> 00:54:06,250
I'm so scared,
I don't know if I can walk.
632
00:54:06,375 --> 00:54:07,750
I don't want to die.
633
00:54:07,875 --> 00:54:09,667
I don't want to die.
634
00:54:09,792 --> 00:54:11,333
You can't crack, Amable.
635
00:54:12,417 --> 00:54:14,792
Not in front of those bastards.
636
00:54:14,917 --> 00:54:16,125
I know all that.
637
00:54:17,250 --> 00:54:18,792
But I'm still scared.
638
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:22,458
Listen, Guillaume.
639
00:54:22,583 --> 00:54:23,625
What?
640
00:54:23,750 --> 00:54:26,333
If you get out, promise me
641
00:54:26,458 --> 00:54:28,500
you'll look after my bees.
642
00:54:31,167 --> 00:54:32,292
Guillaume?
643
00:54:33,458 --> 00:54:34,708
I swear.
644
00:54:36,250 --> 00:54:38,750
Go to my room
at M. Mallette's.
645
00:54:39,875 --> 00:54:41,708
In the desk, in the bottom
drawer,
646
00:54:42,417 --> 00:54:44,167
you'll find a book on bees.
647
00:54:45,083 --> 00:54:46,708
It's old Bessette's.
648
00:54:47,708 --> 00:54:48,917
Give it back to him.
649
00:54:49,875 --> 00:54:51,167
Don't worry.
650
00:54:52,625 --> 00:54:55,167
And get my toolbox
from Thibert in Ste-Martine.
651
00:54:56,083 --> 00:54:57,167
You can have it.
652
00:54:58,875 --> 00:55:00,083
Take care of it.
653
00:55:01,583 --> 00:55:03,125
You can be sure I will.
654
00:55:05,167 --> 00:55:07,792
Oh yeah,
I don't know how to say this.
655
00:55:07,917 --> 00:55:09,292
I was too shy.
656
00:55:10,292 --> 00:55:13,542
But tell your sister
that I liked her.
657
00:55:15,375 --> 00:55:17,042
You can say, a lot.
658
00:55:19,875 --> 00:55:21,583
I noticed.
659
00:55:24,500 --> 00:55:26,208
It was mutual, I think.
660
00:55:28,042 --> 00:55:29,750
Speak louder, I can't hear.
661
00:55:29,875 --> 00:55:31,583
She loved you too.
662
00:55:34,583 --> 00:55:35,500
Amable?
663
00:55:36,667 --> 00:55:38,375
Amable?
664
00:55:38,500 --> 00:55:40,958
Amable, are you there?
665
00:55:41,083 --> 00:55:42,958
Amable?
666
00:55:43,083 --> 00:55:45,125
Amable!
667
00:56:23,292 --> 00:56:24,750
I think that this defeat
668
00:56:26,833 --> 00:56:29,125
is even worse that the defeat of
1760.
669
00:56:31,500 --> 00:56:34,958
The greatest threat
isn't the military occupation,
670
00:56:36,417 --> 00:56:38,417
but the occupation of our minds.
671
00:56:42,875 --> 00:56:45,417
I fear we'll grow accustomed
to our misery
672
00:56:47,958 --> 00:56:51,333
and that those
who hasten to sell us out
673
00:56:52,083 --> 00:56:54,917
will try to convince us
that submission
674
00:56:55,042 --> 00:56:56,833
is paradise on earth.
675
00:56:59,833 --> 00:57:01,250
Our prison bars.
676
00:57:02,208 --> 00:57:05,250
they'll be in our heads.
677
00:57:05,375 --> 00:57:07,917
Alphonse?
678
00:57:08,042 --> 00:57:09,292
What's this?
679
00:57:09,417 --> 00:57:10,917
Our farewell feast.
680
00:57:14,500 --> 00:57:17,417
Chicken, roast pork,
681
00:57:17,542 --> 00:57:19,458
ham, duck,
682
00:57:20,500 --> 00:57:21,625
pâté.
683
00:57:21,750 --> 00:57:24,958
It's not pâté, Frenchie,
it's cretons.
684
00:57:25,083 --> 00:57:26,583
Hey, guys, cretons!
685
00:57:26,708 --> 00:57:27,750
Let me smell.
686
00:57:27,875 --> 00:57:30,917
Pâté, cretons,
who gives a damn?
687
00:57:31,042 --> 00:57:33,792
It matters.
What do you Frenchies know?
688
00:57:34,917 --> 00:57:36,125
Like my mother's.
689
00:57:37,083 --> 00:57:39,625
Leave some for the rest of us!
690
00:57:39,750 --> 00:57:42,000
I'll kneel to eat them.
691
00:57:42,125 --> 00:57:44,208
Cherry wine!
692
00:57:44,333 --> 00:57:45,875
And dandelion wine!
693
00:57:46,500 --> 00:57:47,542
Guys, cider!
694
00:57:48,208 --> 00:57:49,375
Cider!
695
00:57:49,500 --> 00:57:51,125
Pass me the jug.
696
00:57:51,250 --> 00:57:53,625
Cider, holy saints above!
697
00:57:59,167 --> 00:58:00,542
Two fingers, Jos!
698
00:58:08,167 --> 00:58:10,917
Sure beats the horse-piss
Molson foists on us.
699
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:19,333
Thomas,
700
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:21,250
we're ready.
701
00:58:22,625 --> 00:58:24,542
Start without me, I'll be along.
702
00:58:34,167 --> 00:58:35,500
He says not to wait.
703
00:58:36,500 --> 00:58:39,417
Well, let's begin.
704
00:58:39,542 --> 00:58:41,458
There's enough for everyone,
705
00:58:42,208 --> 00:58:43,625
if we keep an eye on Jos.
706
00:58:54,875 --> 00:58:56,167
Want some?
707
00:59:11,708 --> 00:59:13,292
Remember last year,
708
00:59:14,208 --> 00:59:15,500
at Île des Soeurs?
709
00:59:17,167 --> 00:59:20,167
It wasn't last year,
but the year before.
710
00:59:21,542 --> 00:59:23,500
- You sure?
- Yes.
711
00:59:23,625 --> 00:59:26,208
It was spring,
the year of the floods.
712
00:59:27,500 --> 00:59:29,417
We canoed between the trees.
713
00:59:31,833 --> 00:59:33,042
You remember?
714
00:59:34,208 --> 00:59:35,625
Like it was yesterday.
715
00:59:37,625 --> 00:59:39,375
I remember the soft breeze,
716
00:59:41,417 --> 00:59:43,417
the sun glinting off the water,
717
00:59:45,375 --> 00:59:47,625
the pebbles on the shoreline,
718
00:59:49,250 --> 00:59:50,917
the smell of your skin.
719
00:59:55,208 --> 00:59:56,792
I can still see you,
720
00:59:58,542 --> 01:00:00,750
your head thrown back,
721
01:00:02,750 --> 01:00:04,292
your eyes closed,
722
01:00:06,375 --> 01:00:07,750
your breath,
723
01:00:09,708 --> 01:00:11,542
the beads of sweat in your hair.
724
01:00:17,333 --> 01:00:18,667
It's funny.
725
01:00:20,167 --> 01:00:21,750
Each time we made love,
726
01:00:23,375 --> 01:00:25,375
I was discovering a treasure.
727
01:00:27,625 --> 01:00:28,667
Each time.
728
01:00:31,375 --> 01:00:32,875
For ten years.
729
01:00:39,750 --> 01:00:41,125
And the other guy,
730
01:00:41,250 --> 01:00:45,375
with his stupid hat
and English face staring at me.
731
01:00:45,500 --> 01:00:47,250
Thought I'd die laughing.
732
01:00:50,792 --> 01:00:53,500
Dumouchel, you look like
you're at a funeral!
733
01:00:53,625 --> 01:00:55,083
Pour me a drink!
734
01:00:58,042 --> 01:01:00,125
God, why are you all so glum?
735
01:01:04,542 --> 01:01:07,333
Alphonse, tell us a dirty joke!
736
01:01:08,167 --> 01:01:10,000
A dirty joke.
737
01:01:11,583 --> 01:01:12,917
I've got one.
738
01:01:13,042 --> 01:01:15,125
There was this old guy,
739
01:01:15,250 --> 01:01:18,792
comes into the bedroom
with his mast full up.
740
01:01:18,917 --> 01:01:20,333
First time in 10 years.
741
01:01:20,458 --> 01:01:22,833
"For once it's unfurled,
742
01:01:22,958 --> 01:01:24,875
now's the time to wash it!"
743
01:01:30,250 --> 01:01:31,333
I've got one!
744
01:01:31,458 --> 01:01:33,750
With my scythe, by accident,
745
01:01:33,875 --> 01:01:35,208
I cut my cow's legs off.
746
01:01:35,333 --> 01:01:36,625
How is she?
747
01:01:36,750 --> 01:01:39,125
Too low to get the pail
under her!
748
01:01:42,667 --> 01:01:46,167
Know what the difference is
between a Goddamn's tie
749
01:01:47,542 --> 01:01:49,000
and a dog's tail?
750
01:01:49,583 --> 01:01:52,375
A dog's tail covers
the entire asshole.
751
01:01:57,167 --> 01:01:58,750
My only regret is
752
01:01:59,542 --> 01:02:01,042
not loving you enough.
753
01:02:02,708 --> 01:02:04,000
No, it's true.
754
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:11,458
When I met you, you were
everything.
755
01:02:12,583 --> 01:02:14,292
Nothing else interested me.
756
01:02:16,917 --> 01:02:19,250
Seeing you made me dizzy.
757
01:02:19,375 --> 01:02:20,958
I couldn't get a word out.
758
01:02:24,708 --> 01:02:26,833
Then I took up politics.
759
01:02:28,958 --> 01:02:30,917
I was caught in the maelstrom.
760
01:02:33,625 --> 01:02:34,583
Forgive me?
761
01:02:39,250 --> 01:02:41,417
For not loving you as I should
have.
762
01:02:43,750 --> 01:02:45,125
There's nothing to forgive.
763
01:02:46,583 --> 01:02:50,125
I knew how important it was.
It was your whole life.
764
01:02:53,167 --> 01:02:55,792
The love I lived with you
is like the one
765
01:02:55,917 --> 01:02:57,792
I dreamed of as a girl.
766
01:03:01,458 --> 01:03:03,208
Yes, but I was always gone,
767
01:03:05,750 --> 01:03:07,542
crisscrossing the country.
768
01:03:08,708 --> 01:03:11,083
You raised our kids on your own.
769
01:03:12,458 --> 01:03:14,500
That was my way of fighting.
770
01:03:17,542 --> 01:03:19,208
I hardly saw them grow up.
771
01:03:20,208 --> 01:03:21,208
That's not true.
772
01:03:21,792 --> 01:03:23,542
You always looked after them.
773
01:03:25,875 --> 01:03:27,208
Kiss me.
774
01:03:35,083 --> 01:03:38,125
In this part of the prison,
there's only two of them
775
01:03:38,250 --> 01:03:40,000
De Lorimier and Hindelang.
776
01:03:40,125 --> 01:03:42,625
Hindelang?
How do you spell that?
777
01:03:46,708 --> 01:03:48,125
And who is he, exactly?
778
01:03:48,250 --> 01:03:50,417
Well, we don't know to much
about him.
779
01:03:50,542 --> 01:03:51,708
He was born in France,
780
01:03:51,833 --> 01:03:54,417
but his family is originally
frow Switzerland.
781
01:03:54,542 --> 01:03:57,958
After that, he spent some time
in the United States,
782
01:03:58,083 --> 01:04:00,000
where he joined the patriots.
783
01:04:00,125 --> 01:04:02,375
You mean the traitors,
don't you Mr De St-Ours?
784
01:04:02,500 --> 01:04:04,708
Oh, yes, of course.
The traitors.
785
01:04:04,833 --> 01:04:07,500
Excuse me.
786
01:04:07,625 --> 01:04:09,917
He's a soldier
and was one of the commanders
787
01:04:10,042 --> 01:04:12,208
at the battle of Odelltown.
788
01:04:12,333 --> 01:04:13,875
And the other one?
789
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:15,417
De Lorimier...
790
01:04:15,542 --> 01:04:18,375
He's what you can call a
professionnal troublemaker.
791
01:04:18,500 --> 01:04:21,583
In 1830, he worked for Papineau
and the other candidate
792
01:04:21,708 --> 01:04:23,417
at Le Parti Patriote.
793
01:04:23,542 --> 01:04:26,375
He was Secretary General of the
Central committee.
794
01:04:26,500 --> 01:04:28,667
He was with Chénier
in Saint-Eustache.
795
01:04:28,792 --> 01:04:31,042
Then, he went to
the United States
796
01:04:31,167 --> 01:04:33,042
to organize the rebellion.
797
01:04:38,083 --> 01:04:39,000
What's that noise?
798
01:04:39,125 --> 01:04:40,458
I don't know.
799
01:04:40,583 --> 01:04:42,542
What's going on in there?
800
01:04:42,667 --> 01:04:44,167
The prisonners are having
their supper, sir.
801
01:05:07,125 --> 01:05:08,500
They're crazy!
802
01:05:22,875 --> 01:05:24,667
Excuse me, but.
803
01:05:27,083 --> 01:05:28,583
the men want to see you.
804
01:05:32,875 --> 01:05:35,042
You should be with us.
805
01:05:37,542 --> 01:05:38,667
One moment.
806
01:05:42,458 --> 01:05:44,833
Like to come?
It won't be long.
807
01:05:44,958 --> 01:05:46,875
No, I'd rather wait here.
808
01:05:56,375 --> 01:05:57,542
I'll be right back.
809
01:06:16,333 --> 01:06:18,125
Dear compatriots,
810
01:06:21,125 --> 01:06:22,542
down with tyranny.
811
01:06:25,250 --> 01:06:26,792
Long live independence.
812
01:06:32,208 --> 01:06:33,542
My friends,
813
01:06:36,167 --> 01:06:39,125
Here's to those who resist
exploitation,
814
01:06:42,292 --> 01:06:44,958
who refuse to live on bended
knee,
815
01:06:47,833 --> 01:06:50,458
to all the patriots
around the world,
816
01:06:51,875 --> 01:06:53,417
who fight for liberty.
817
01:06:57,542 --> 01:06:58,667
To all of us!
818
01:07:36,292 --> 01:07:38,750
No, it can't be. I can't!
819
01:07:38,875 --> 01:07:41,583
I don't want to. I'll go mad.
820
01:07:42,667 --> 01:07:44,417
Henriette, calm down.
821
01:07:44,542 --> 01:07:46,708
What'll I do without you?
822
01:07:46,833 --> 01:07:49,708
I'll never be able
to touch you, smell you,
823
01:07:49,833 --> 01:07:52,417
hold you in my arms.
824
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:54,333
Never again, ever.
825
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:57,208
Listen to me.
826
01:07:57,333 --> 01:07:58,625
I don't want to listen.
827
01:07:59,542 --> 01:08:02,333
I won't let them hurt you,
and me.
828
01:08:03,375 --> 01:08:06,292
They want to destroy us.
I'll fight them off.
829
01:08:06,958 --> 01:08:09,792
With my feet and nails
and teeth.
830
01:08:13,167 --> 01:08:14,625
I love you, Thomas.
831
01:08:14,750 --> 01:08:16,500
Do you understand?
832
01:08:17,332 --> 01:08:18,457
I love you.
833
01:08:21,042 --> 01:08:22,207
I love you.
834
01:08:23,375 --> 01:08:25,582
How can I go on
living if you die?
835
01:08:26,667 --> 01:08:28,417
You're me, I'm you.
836
01:08:28,542 --> 01:08:29,832
You're part of me.
837
01:08:29,957 --> 01:08:32,792
I won't let them
tear you from me.
838
01:08:33,542 --> 01:08:34,667
The monsters.
839
01:08:34,792 --> 01:08:36,832
I'll defend you.
I'll bite them.
840
01:08:36,957 --> 01:08:39,542
I'll claw their faces,
gouge their eyes.
841
01:08:39,667 --> 01:08:40,832
Stop it.
842
01:08:47,667 --> 01:08:48,582
Stop it.
843
01:08:54,625 --> 01:08:55,917
It's hopeless.
844
01:08:56,832 --> 01:08:58,582
You can't let them.
845
01:08:58,707 --> 01:09:01,875
You have to live.
For me, our kids, for you!
846
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:03,332
Stop it.
847
01:09:05,207 --> 01:09:06,582
It's too late.
848
01:09:11,500 --> 01:09:13,582
Don't make it harder for me.
849
01:09:15,957 --> 01:09:19,250
I need my strength
to face this with dignity.
850
01:09:20,792 --> 01:09:22,042
Help me.
851
01:09:26,042 --> 01:09:27,542
I beg you, help me.
852
01:09:46,082 --> 01:09:50,042
For Hindelang and De Lorimier,
given the circumstances,
853
01:09:50,167 --> 01:09:51,625
the prison authorities
854
01:09:51,750 --> 01:09:54,458
have extended visiting hours
till 10:00.
855
01:09:54,583 --> 01:09:56,167
The rest, inside.
856
01:09:58,583 --> 01:09:59,917
Alright, you heard him.
857
01:10:00,042 --> 01:10:01,583
Back to your cells, let's go!
858
01:10:01,708 --> 01:10:02,792
Come on! Move!
859
01:10:02,917 --> 01:10:04,333
Come on! Get going!
860
01:10:04,458 --> 01:10:05,958
Come on Primeau!
Get going!
861
01:10:06,083 --> 01:10:08,125
We're not animals.
862
01:10:08,250 --> 01:10:10,792
Get going, Primeau!
Come on!
863
01:10:19,125 --> 01:10:20,792
A bed, old man.
864
01:10:22,875 --> 01:10:24,208
with white sheets,
865
01:10:25,708 --> 01:10:27,000
freshly ironed,
866
01:10:28,458 --> 01:10:30,667
that still smell
of wind and soap.
867
01:10:32,542 --> 01:10:34,500
Two woollen covers.
868
01:10:34,625 --> 01:10:36,042
No, three.
869
01:10:37,208 --> 01:10:38,542
Thick homespun wool.
870
01:10:40,750 --> 01:10:44,917
And a warm quilt, with flowers.
sweet Jesus!
871
01:10:51,042 --> 01:10:53,667
When'll they give us straw mats?
872
01:10:53,792 --> 01:10:56,708
They're trying to break us.
873
01:10:56,833 --> 01:10:58,500
Keep dreaming.
874
01:11:03,042 --> 01:11:04,625
A nice feather bed,
875
01:11:05,375 --> 01:11:06,792
real thick,
876
01:11:08,750 --> 01:11:11,125
with my missus asleep
next to me,
877
01:11:12,750 --> 01:11:14,500
her hair loose.
878
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:17,458
You snuggle up to her,
879
01:11:19,042 --> 01:11:20,458
it's warm,
880
01:11:22,500 --> 01:11:25,667
and Lord, it feels so right.
881
01:11:37,917 --> 01:11:39,958
I wonder who'll be next.
882
01:11:55,875 --> 01:11:57,250
- Hello, Guillaume.
- Father.
883
01:11:57,375 --> 01:11:58,625
Xavier.
884
01:11:59,333 --> 01:12:00,458
Hello, Charles.
885
01:12:00,583 --> 01:12:01,792
Evening, Father.
886
01:12:02,500 --> 01:12:03,833
I just found out.
887
01:12:04,625 --> 01:12:06,250
I came as fast as I could.
888
01:12:07,167 --> 01:12:08,250
I'm sorry.
889
01:12:08,833 --> 01:12:09,833
Like they say,
890
01:12:11,042 --> 01:12:13,042
we all have to face it some day.
891
01:12:14,083 --> 01:12:15,458
Anything I can do?
892
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:19,458
You know my beliefs.
893
01:12:21,125 --> 01:12:22,250
Thanks anyway.
894
01:12:29,375 --> 01:12:31,250
How's Thomas holding up?
895
01:12:32,042 --> 01:12:33,542
He's with his wife.
896
01:12:34,750 --> 01:12:35,958
He's taking it hard.
897
01:12:36,083 --> 01:12:37,250
Mercy!
898
01:12:38,833 --> 01:12:39,792
Father,
899
01:12:40,750 --> 01:12:42,250
did you see the others?
900
01:12:43,583 --> 01:12:44,875
Daunais and Narbonne.
901
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:45,958
He's all right.
902
01:12:46,917 --> 01:12:48,333
He's enraged, as usual.
903
01:12:48,458 --> 01:12:50,292
It's Daunais I'm worried about.
904
01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:52,792
He's like a wounded bird,
905
01:12:52,917 --> 01:12:54,750
crushed in his corner.
906
01:12:57,958 --> 01:13:00,083
His eyes are black with fear.
907
01:13:00,208 --> 01:13:02,000
Heaven help us.
908
01:13:04,750 --> 01:13:06,667
He mentioned your sister.
909
01:13:08,167 --> 01:13:10,625
Only her memory
keeps him afloat.
910
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:14,042
Thank you, Father.
911
01:13:49,417 --> 01:13:50,333
Come on, Henriette.
912
01:13:50,458 --> 01:13:52,333
No!
913
01:13:52,458 --> 01:13:54,542
It's over, my love.
You must go.
914
01:13:55,667 --> 01:13:59,042
I won't leave you.
I'd rather die.
915
01:14:03,542 --> 01:14:04,958
Don't touch me!
916
01:14:05,083 --> 01:14:06,333
You have to go.
917
01:14:06,458 --> 01:14:08,000
I'm staying.
Don't touch me.
918
01:14:08,125 --> 01:14:09,917
Come on.
919
01:14:10,042 --> 01:14:11,792
My love, you must go.
920
01:14:14,542 --> 01:14:17,167
The children, Thomas.
921
01:14:17,292 --> 01:14:19,708
No, Thomas. No!
922
01:14:19,833 --> 01:14:23,000
We let you have two hours
more. You must go.
923
01:14:23,708 --> 01:14:25,375
Don't make me use force.
924
01:14:26,458 --> 01:14:28,792
Alright! Come on! It's over!
925
01:14:28,917 --> 01:14:30,208
The time is up!
926
01:14:32,458 --> 01:14:33,458
Courage.
927
01:14:35,792 --> 01:14:37,417
Courage.
928
01:14:37,542 --> 01:14:39,458
Guards.
929
01:14:40,667 --> 01:14:43,292
Courage.
930
01:14:45,292 --> 01:14:46,667
Don't touch me!
931
01:14:51,375 --> 01:14:52,708
Alright! Move her out!
932
01:14:52,833 --> 01:14:54,750
You understand me,
it's an order. Now!
933
01:14:54,875 --> 01:14:56,250
Lieutenant Elliot!
934
01:14:56,375 --> 01:14:57,375
Leave me!
935
01:14:57,500 --> 01:14:58,625
She's his wife.
936
01:14:59,917 --> 01:15:02,167
Let me go! Let me go!
937
01:15:03,833 --> 01:15:05,792
Come on!
938
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:09,625
Pick her up!
939
01:15:09,750 --> 01:15:11,333
Are you deaf?
Pick her up!
940
01:15:11,458 --> 01:15:14,042
Not another word
out of you!
941
01:15:14,167 --> 01:15:15,375
We'll carry her.
942
01:15:16,875 --> 01:15:18,083
Do it!
943
01:15:18,208 --> 01:15:20,458
Do it quickly!
944
01:16:00,583 --> 01:16:01,917
Farewell, my darling.
945
01:16:02,708 --> 01:16:03,958
My beautiful darling.
946
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:56,542
The worst is over.
947
01:17:39,667 --> 01:17:41,000
Are you all right?
948
01:18:06,208 --> 01:18:07,667
How did it go?
949
01:18:07,792 --> 01:18:11,167
Xavier,
would you mind waiting outside?
950
01:18:15,292 --> 01:18:18,458
At the gate
she was still unconscious.
951
01:18:21,917 --> 01:18:23,833
It'll be awful
when she wakens.
952
01:18:24,750 --> 01:18:26,417
At least she won't be alone.
953
01:18:29,667 --> 01:18:31,167
This is all my fault
954
01:18:32,375 --> 01:18:33,750
and I can do nothing.
955
01:18:35,292 --> 01:18:38,125
I watch those I love suffer,
but cannot help.
956
01:18:39,375 --> 01:18:40,708
I'm powerless.
957
01:18:40,833 --> 01:18:42,458
You're not alone either.
958
01:18:43,208 --> 01:18:44,500
He is present.
959
01:18:45,583 --> 01:18:47,083
Shall we pray together?
960
01:18:58,833 --> 01:19:02,625
My God, you who bear
all the suffering of men,
961
01:19:02,750 --> 01:19:04,375
the weight of our fears,
962
01:19:05,833 --> 01:19:08,000
help us to die with dignity.
963
01:19:09,417 --> 01:19:13,625
My God, you too died on the
gibbet,
964
01:19:14,375 --> 01:19:15,792
like a criminal.
965
01:19:17,375 --> 01:19:19,375
Hear our cry of distress
966
01:19:20,833 --> 01:19:23,417
and ensure that our death
is not in vain.
967
01:19:25,417 --> 01:19:27,125
Welcome us into your paradise
968
01:19:28,417 --> 01:19:30,958
where all suffering is
abolished.
969
01:19:33,542 --> 01:19:35,792
Our Father, which art in heaven,
970
01:19:35,917 --> 01:19:37,667
hallowed be thy name.
971
01:19:38,625 --> 01:19:40,000
They kingdom come,
972
01:19:40,917 --> 01:19:43,708
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
973
01:19:44,542 --> 01:19:47,042
Give us this day our daily
bread,
974
01:19:47,750 --> 01:19:49,583
and forgive us our trespasses,
975
01:19:49,708 --> 01:19:52,625
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
976
01:19:56,042 --> 01:19:57,333
I can't, Father.
977
01:19:59,417 --> 01:20:01,042
I can't forgive our enemies.
978
01:20:03,125 --> 01:20:05,750
Not for what I saw
on my wife's face.
979
01:20:08,417 --> 01:20:10,000
God can't ask that of me.
980
01:20:12,083 --> 01:20:14,333
Forgiveness, yes,
but justice too.
981
01:20:17,583 --> 01:20:18,708
Thomas,
982
01:20:19,833 --> 01:20:21,958
I think God is able to
understand that.
983
01:20:28,792 --> 01:20:29,875
Xavier.
984
01:20:36,208 --> 01:20:37,417
How's he doing?
985
01:20:37,542 --> 01:20:39,833
He's calm.
He's with the priest.
986
01:20:39,958 --> 01:20:42,333
Who's that priest, a traitor?
987
01:20:42,458 --> 01:20:45,542
No, he's a simple priest,
on our side.
988
01:20:46,417 --> 01:20:49,083
Wipes his ass
with the bishop's pastorals!
989
01:20:49,208 --> 01:20:51,625
Bloody Goddamn loving bishop!
990
01:20:53,500 --> 01:20:55,208
Leave religion out of it.
991
01:20:55,333 --> 01:20:56,958
It's not religion,
992
01:20:57,792 --> 01:21:00,583
but that scum in robes
who sleeps with the Governor!
993
01:21:01,917 --> 01:21:04,625
"Submit!
All authority comes from God!
994
01:21:04,750 --> 01:21:06,833
"Rebels will be excommunicated.
995
01:21:06,958 --> 01:21:10,708
Peace! Peace is the greatest
good."
996
01:21:13,042 --> 01:21:14,458
Bloody hell!
997
01:21:15,667 --> 01:21:18,958
We keep the peace,
they keep the land and power.
998
01:21:31,833 --> 01:21:33,625
Amen.
999
01:21:50,292 --> 01:21:51,542
Thank you, Father.
1000
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:54,542
It's me who thanks you.
1001
01:21:55,750 --> 01:21:57,958
So few people are willing to
stand up.
1002
01:22:02,833 --> 01:22:04,250
Thanks for coming.
1003
01:22:07,708 --> 01:22:08,958
Guard!
1004
01:22:14,875 --> 01:22:16,625
How are things outside?
1005
01:22:18,125 --> 01:22:19,625
Outside?
1006
01:22:22,708 --> 01:22:23,917
Are there protests?
1007
01:22:24,042 --> 01:22:25,250
Not yet.
1008
01:22:26,417 --> 01:22:29,708
People lay low
and wait for the storm to pass.
1009
01:22:30,875 --> 01:22:33,542
Then there are
the moderates and cowards
1010
01:22:33,667 --> 01:22:36,083
and profiteers who accuse
the Patriots
1011
01:22:36,208 --> 01:22:38,083
of being extremists.
1012
01:22:39,875 --> 01:22:42,292
They blame the disaster on us.
1013
01:22:43,625 --> 01:22:44,917
As usual
1014
01:22:46,042 --> 01:22:47,958
history will be written by the
victors.
1015
01:22:48,792 --> 01:22:50,000
For cowards
1016
01:22:50,125 --> 01:22:52,042
liberty is always extremist.
1017
01:23:17,500 --> 01:23:20,500
On the eve of rendering
my spirit to its creator,
1018
01:23:21,792 --> 01:23:25,125
I wish to share
my feelings and thoughts.
1019
01:23:26,833 --> 01:23:28,417
I die without remorse.
1020
01:23:29,750 --> 01:23:31,958
I sought the good of my country,
1021
01:23:32,083 --> 01:23:34,042
in insurrection
and independence.
1022
01:23:35,833 --> 01:23:38,375
Death has taken
many of my collaborators.
1023
01:23:39,417 --> 01:23:41,333
Others are rotting behind bars.
1024
01:23:42,375 --> 01:23:46,500
Still more are in exile,
their property destroyed,
1025
01:23:47,500 --> 01:23:50,792
their families abandoned
to our harsh winter, destitute.
1026
01:23:52,083 --> 01:23:53,833
Despite all this misfortune,
1027
01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:58,875
my heart is filled with courage
and hope for the future.
1028
01:24:00,250 --> 01:24:02,625
My friends and children
will know better days:
1029
01:24:03,667 --> 01:24:07,542
They will be free,
my conscience assures me.
1030
01:24:10,833 --> 01:24:14,583
My children's only inheritance
will be the memory of my woes.
1031
01:24:15,708 --> 01:24:17,000
Poor orphans!
1032
01:24:17,917 --> 01:24:19,458
It's you I feel sorry for.
1033
01:24:20,333 --> 01:24:23,417
Your father's only crime
was failure.
1034
01:24:25,042 --> 01:24:26,708
As for you, my compatriots,
1035
01:24:27,750 --> 01:24:29,625
the executions of me and my
companions
1036
01:24:29,750 --> 01:24:31,625
will have a purpose,
1037
01:24:32,833 --> 01:24:34,208
to show exactly
what may be expected
1038
01:24:34,333 --> 01:24:36,208
from the English.
1039
01:24:38,167 --> 01:24:40,125
I've but a few hours
left to live.
1040
01:24:41,500 --> 01:24:43,000
Dear compatriots,
1041
01:24:43,875 --> 01:24:45,542
for you I die a murderer's
1042
01:24:45,667 --> 01:24:47,625
ignominious death
on the gallows;
1043
01:24:48,958 --> 01:24:52,083
for you I leave behind
my young children and wife;
1044
01:24:53,250 --> 01:24:55,000
for you I die shouting:
1045
01:24:56,083 --> 01:24:59,500
Long live liberty!
Long live independence!
1046
01:25:51,667 --> 01:25:53,083
Dear Henriette,
1047
01:25:54,875 --> 01:25:58,417
you, my darling wife,
have made me truly happy.
1048
01:25:59,708 --> 01:26:01,958
I shall not see you again
in this world.
1049
01:26:02,500 --> 01:26:04,625
But you, my beloved Henriette,
1050
01:26:04,750 --> 01:26:06,625
you shall see me one more time,
1051
01:26:08,042 --> 01:26:12,667
though my body will be cold,
lifeless, disfigured.
1052
01:26:14,542 --> 01:26:16,167
You must take courage,
1053
01:26:17,500 --> 01:26:20,958
you must live for the love
of our dear children.
1054
01:26:22,917 --> 01:26:26,167
So be happy, my poor, darling
wife.
1055
01:26:27,042 --> 01:26:28,875
This is my soul's most ardent
wish.
1056
01:26:31,125 --> 01:26:35,125
Farewell, my tender wife,
again, farewell.
1057
01:26:35,750 --> 01:26:38,125
Live and be happy.
1058
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:41,292
Your miserable husband,
1059
01:26:42,042 --> 01:26:43,083
Thomas
1060
01:27:05,208 --> 01:27:07,125
Can I see?
1061
01:27:26,333 --> 01:27:28,625
At this hour
my mother's dreaming.
1062
01:27:40,833 --> 01:27:42,667
When she learns the news.
1063
01:27:45,167 --> 01:27:46,292
Yes.
1064
01:27:49,125 --> 01:27:51,042
Though I'm glad she's not here.
1065
01:27:56,792 --> 01:27:58,708
We didn't always get along, but
1066
01:27:59,375 --> 01:28:01,000
I know she loves me deeply.
1067
01:28:03,375 --> 01:28:04,667
I always ran away.
1068
01:28:08,250 --> 01:28:10,875
I don't know why,
I couldn't help it.
1069
01:28:15,542 --> 01:28:17,208
Now, in a few hours,
1070
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:24,250
I'll die without having
seen her again.
1071
01:28:29,167 --> 01:28:30,792
Bloody hell!
1072
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:43,917
Every day since I've had
children, I've thought of death.
1073
01:28:45,708 --> 01:28:46,750
Every day.
1074
01:28:48,250 --> 01:28:49,667
Every time I see them.
1075
01:28:53,500 --> 01:28:57,208
But little François,
I tell you, when he laughs,
1076
01:28:57,792 --> 01:29:00,125
when I kiss him on the neck,
1077
01:29:00,250 --> 01:29:01,333
it's fantastic.
1078
01:29:02,833 --> 01:29:04,042
You forget everything.
1079
01:29:06,458 --> 01:29:09,250
It's like the tinkling of little
bells,
1080
01:29:11,250 --> 01:29:13,417
like a gurgling brook in spring.
1081
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:18,292
For a few seconds,
death doesn't exist.
1082
01:29:21,375 --> 01:29:23,042
That's what eternity must be,
1083
01:29:23,958 --> 01:29:25,292
a sparkling laugh.
1084
01:29:28,625 --> 01:29:30,875
If you're not careful,
it passes you by.
1085
01:29:32,042 --> 01:29:33,833
You miss so much of life.
1086
01:29:39,083 --> 01:29:41,042
Marguerite, I remember her,
1087
01:29:41,542 --> 01:29:43,125
lying on her tummy,
1088
01:29:44,500 --> 01:29:46,542
pulling up her gown, saying:
1089
01:29:47,542 --> 01:29:50,542
"Papa, Papa, rub my back!
1090
01:29:51,333 --> 01:29:52,583
Please!"
1091
01:29:56,792 --> 01:29:58,417
I think I melted.
1092
01:30:01,125 --> 01:30:02,250
It's as if
1093
01:30:03,500 --> 01:30:06,167
you're holding all the softness
in the world.
1094
01:30:07,375 --> 01:30:08,917
She's soft, she's warm.
1095
01:30:10,500 --> 01:30:12,167
She's limp with love.
1096
01:30:15,125 --> 01:30:17,083
She's learning
what tenderness is.
1097
01:30:18,750 --> 01:30:20,958
You're learning what tenderness
is too.
1098
01:30:24,083 --> 01:30:26,750
In her eyes, a tiny flame
begins to flicker.
1099
01:30:30,333 --> 01:30:31,875
It shines so bright.
1100
01:30:41,125 --> 01:30:43,083
We must remain as children.
1101
01:30:46,417 --> 01:30:48,042
Mind that you do, Xavier.
1102
01:30:49,167 --> 01:30:50,583
We have to fight, but.
1103
01:30:52,208 --> 01:30:53,792
we mustn't stop laughing.
1104
01:30:56,750 --> 01:30:58,917
We mustn't stop
watching the sun.
1105
01:31:03,542 --> 01:31:05,333
Old madame Champenois,
1106
01:31:06,708 --> 01:31:08,625
with her white hair pulled back.
1107
01:31:10,583 --> 01:31:12,917
I'd gone to say goodbye
before I left.
1108
01:31:15,833 --> 01:31:19,250
She'd come out onto the path
beside her house
1109
01:31:20,292 --> 01:31:21,583
with her dog,
1110
01:31:23,292 --> 01:31:25,042
a little black and white dog,
1111
01:31:26,667 --> 01:31:28,042
almost as old as her.
1112
01:31:29,625 --> 01:31:31,208
We embraced.
1113
01:31:33,250 --> 01:31:35,250
She told me to be careful.
1114
01:31:35,375 --> 01:31:36,792
I set off.
1115
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,375
I turned around a few times
as I walked.
1116
01:31:41,667 --> 01:31:43,125
She was still there,
1117
01:31:44,917 --> 01:31:48,292
all hunched over and white
amidst the leaves.
1118
01:31:50,750 --> 01:31:54,125
The trees formed a canopy above
her, like a church.
1119
01:31:56,792 --> 01:31:58,750
I knew I wouldn't see her again.
1120
01:31:59,958 --> 01:32:02,667
Listening to you,
I can see her now.
1121
01:32:06,542 --> 01:32:08,208
She passed away last year.
1122
01:32:10,083 --> 01:32:12,417
That's the last memory
I have of my village.
1123
01:33:09,500 --> 01:33:10,833
You're not asleep?
1124
01:33:11,750 --> 01:33:14,292
No, I'd rather
sit up with you.
1125
01:33:32,417 --> 01:33:34,083
You should try to sleep.
1126
01:33:36,708 --> 01:33:38,000
I can't.
1127
01:33:39,250 --> 01:33:40,750
You think too much.
1128
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:44,250
You mustn't,
if you want to survive.
1129
01:33:47,875 --> 01:33:49,208
We have to kill time,
1130
01:33:51,208 --> 01:33:53,167
otherwise it'll kill us.
1131
01:33:58,250 --> 01:34:00,500
I never did anything
worthwhile, Thomas.
1132
01:34:02,833 --> 01:34:04,583
If I hadn't met you,
1133
01:34:06,708 --> 01:34:08,167
I'd have wasted my life.
1134
01:34:10,833 --> 01:34:12,792
If I hadn't fought with you,
1135
01:34:14,375 --> 01:34:16,000
I'd have lived for nothing.
1136
01:34:18,708 --> 01:34:20,333
I'd have died for nothing.
1137
01:34:23,792 --> 01:34:26,000
With you, I finally broke out.
1138
01:34:29,208 --> 01:34:30,875
For the first time in my life
1139
01:34:32,917 --> 01:34:35,042
someone was counting on me.
1140
01:34:37,917 --> 01:34:39,542
For the first time in my life
1141
01:34:41,458 --> 01:34:44,833
I was part of something
bigger than myself.
1142
01:34:47,917 --> 01:34:49,833
That's when I started to exist.
1143
01:34:52,375 --> 01:34:54,000
Your resistance.
1144
01:34:56,667 --> 01:34:58,625
allowed me to exist.
1145
01:35:00,458 --> 01:35:02,083
For the first time in my life
1146
01:35:03,667 --> 01:35:05,917
I was with people
who didn't judge me,
1147
01:35:07,208 --> 01:35:08,708
even if I was different.
1148
01:35:11,417 --> 01:35:12,583
Are you sorry?
1149
01:35:13,875 --> 01:35:15,208
Not at all.
1150
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:19,042
Anyway, it's too late.
1151
01:35:22,208 --> 01:35:25,083
It's not a question of whether
we'll live or die,
1152
01:35:25,917 --> 01:35:27,958
but of choosing how we'll die.
1153
01:35:29,833 --> 01:35:32,125
My only hope is people don't
forget us,
1154
01:35:34,083 --> 01:35:35,625
but learn from our mistakes.
1155
01:35:38,292 --> 01:35:41,375
That they are able to unite
for once, just once.
1156
01:35:44,208 --> 01:35:45,708
So we don't die in vain.
1157
01:35:56,875 --> 01:35:58,417
Finally!
1158
01:35:59,500 --> 01:36:01,250
We're freezing in this hole.
1159
01:36:03,208 --> 01:36:04,625
I don't want any bread.
1160
01:36:06,875 --> 01:36:09,333
No, give it to me after all.
1161
01:36:11,083 --> 01:36:13,083
I don't want them to have it.
1162
01:36:15,292 --> 01:36:16,500
See you, Joseph.
1163
01:36:23,375 --> 01:36:24,458
Thanks.
1164
01:37:46,000 --> 01:37:47,958
Amen.
1165
01:38:28,042 --> 01:38:29,917
Amen.
1166
01:40:52,500 --> 01:40:54,167
Leave room for the noose.
1167
01:41:10,417 --> 01:41:11,625
Goodbye, Charles.
1168
01:41:12,583 --> 01:41:14,000
Goodbye, Guillaume.
1169
01:41:15,625 --> 01:41:17,833
When I'm up above,
in the next world,
1170
01:41:19,292 --> 01:41:22,792
send me a few English soldiers,
to keep me company.
1171
01:41:24,625 --> 01:41:27,500
But don't forget, I was a major.
1172
01:41:28,875 --> 01:41:31,208
So I'll need some generals above
me.
1173
01:41:33,833 --> 01:41:35,042
Farewell, my friend.
1174
01:41:42,125 --> 01:41:44,000
What's that?
1175
01:41:48,875 --> 01:41:50,875
What's that?
1176
01:41:53,833 --> 01:41:55,208
His wife's hankie.
1177
01:41:55,333 --> 01:41:56,333
What?
1178
01:41:56,458 --> 01:41:58,208
His wife's...
1179
01:42:27,250 --> 01:42:29,292
We'll show them
how Frenchmen die.
1180
01:42:31,750 --> 01:42:33,000
Courage, Charles.
1181
01:42:40,167 --> 01:42:42,208
In the name of the Father
1182
01:42:42,333 --> 01:42:45,083
and the Son
and the Holy Ghost, amen.
1183
01:42:48,792 --> 01:42:52,708
Dear Jesus, I willingly
take up your cross,
1184
01:42:53,958 --> 01:42:57,458
and sip the bitter wine
from the chalice you hold out.
1185
01:42:58,542 --> 01:43:01,833
But Lord,
you know how weak I am.
1186
01:43:02,875 --> 01:43:05,667
Help me, support me,
1187
01:43:06,708 --> 01:43:08,208
strengthen me,
1188
01:43:09,458 --> 01:43:12,792
so that I do not stumble
under the weight of my cross,
1189
01:43:14,042 --> 01:43:16,667
but bear it, in your footsteps,
1190
01:43:17,417 --> 01:43:20,292
with courage and perseverance,
1191
01:43:21,417 --> 01:43:23,625
to the summit of my Calvary,
1192
01:43:24,583 --> 01:43:28,833
to be crucified
and die with you there.
1193
01:43:30,167 --> 01:43:32,125
In the name of the Father
1194
01:43:32,250 --> 01:43:34,917
and the Son
and the Holy Ghost, amen.
1195
01:43:46,125 --> 01:43:47,250
I'm ready.
1196
01:44:06,458 --> 01:44:10,042
To the gallows!
1197
01:44:10,167 --> 01:44:12,083
March!
1198
01:44:13,167 --> 01:44:14,333
Amable!
1199
01:44:14,458 --> 01:44:16,917
Don't let the Goddamns win.
1200
01:44:18,083 --> 01:44:20,125
Think of Louise, Amable.
1201
01:44:20,708 --> 01:44:22,292
Think of Louise.
1202
01:44:22,417 --> 01:44:24,833
Let go of me,
I can walk on my own!
1203
01:44:25,792 --> 01:44:28,500
Guillaume, tell your sister
1204
01:44:28,625 --> 01:44:30,708
I died like a man.
1205
01:44:32,208 --> 01:44:33,792
Farewell, Guillaume!
1206
01:44:33,917 --> 01:44:35,750
We'll meet in heaven,
1207
01:44:36,958 --> 01:44:38,125
one day.
1208
01:45:23,917 --> 01:45:26,333
One day they'll pay for this.
1209
01:45:27,042 --> 01:45:28,750
We'll make them pay.
1210
01:45:29,750 --> 01:45:31,250
One day we'll take back
1211
01:45:31,375 --> 01:45:33,583
what those bastards
stole from us.
1212
01:45:34,750 --> 01:45:38,542
We shall win! We shall win!
1213
01:47:21,375 --> 01:47:22,792
They're tying their feet.
1214
01:47:28,333 --> 01:47:30,833
Please...
1215
01:47:30,958 --> 01:47:33,875
Say something.
1216
01:47:37,542 --> 01:47:39,458
Today, I'm not afraid anymore.
1217
01:47:48,250 --> 01:47:50,333
It's your turn to be afraid.
1218
01:47:56,375 --> 01:47:58,375
Holy Mary, pray for us sinners
1219
01:47:58,500 --> 01:48:00,917
now and at the hour
of our death. Amen.
1220
01:48:01,583 --> 01:48:05,125
Hail Mary, full of grace,
blessed art Thou among women,
1221
01:48:05,250 --> 01:48:08,125
and blessed is
the fruit of Thy womb, Jesus.
1222
01:49:27,167 --> 01:49:29,625
On this scaffold,
built by Englishmen,
1223
01:49:29,750 --> 01:49:32,792
I die knowing I have done my
duty.
1224
01:49:33,708 --> 01:49:35,875
This sentence is unjust.
1225
01:49:36,542 --> 01:49:39,000
May the guilty answer
for this crime.
1226
01:49:40,500 --> 01:49:41,667
Farewell!
1227
01:49:43,292 --> 01:49:46,042
I bequeath to you
the motto of France:
1228
01:49:46,917 --> 01:49:48,333
Long live liberty!
1229
01:50:00,875 --> 01:50:02,458
Long live liberty!
1230
01:50:02,583 --> 01:50:03,792
Long live independence!
1231
01:50:20,667 --> 01:50:22,083
Narbonne's hand.
1232
01:50:22,208 --> 01:50:23,583
He's holding on.
1233
01:50:24,833 --> 01:50:26,333
Hit him!
1234
01:50:29,542 --> 01:50:31,208
Hit him now!
1235
01:50:33,917 --> 01:50:36,417
Hit him!
1236
01:51:39,375 --> 01:51:42,917
"I am a drop of blood
that fertilizes the soil.
1237
01:51:43,042 --> 01:51:46,958
I die because I must die,
so the people may live."
