All language subtitles for Reilly Ace of Spies - 09 After Moscow-eng

Following the attempt

on Lenin's life in August 1918

Lockhart, the British envoy to
the Bolsheviks, was arrested.

Reilly, his co-conspirator,
escaped from Russia

with a price on his head.

Felix Dzerzhinsky,
head of the Cheka,

the Russian secret police,
exacted a grim revenge

on the hostages he held
and threatened even more

massive reprisals if
Lenin died of his wounds.

But Lenin did not die.

- How is he?

- Better.

- How many are dead now?

- Moscow, by this morning's
count, some 900 in Petrograd...

- Stop the killing.

- The situation
is still critical.

- We must find another way.

The war in Europe
is all but over,

When peace comes the whole world

will turn its attention on us.

We must unite to face them.

Or we shall find ourselves
fighting on a dozen fronts.

- We're already fighting
on a dozen fronts.

- I must confess,
there was a time

when we thought we
might not see you again!

- I want to thank
you, Lord Cecil,

for getting me out
of Russia alive.

- It was touch and go, old boy,

but Leeper here did
a very good job.

- Hello, Robbie.

It's good to have you home.

This is Sykes.

- How do you do?

- You're you quite
the hero, old boy.

Have you seen the
newspapers recently?

- I'm more concerned what
the Foreign Office thinks.

- We're going to crucify you, old boy.

- What was it like?
- Sir!

- Reilly.

- Sidney?

It's me!

I'm in London!

- Welcome back, old man!

- They were
all set to shoot me

and then they put me on a train!

Isn't it wonderful?

I'm home!

I'm a hero!

I have tea with
the King at four.

- How's Mora?

- I had
to leave her behind.

Oh.

- Well, I'm in
enough trouble as it is.

Sykes said they were
gonna crucify me!

- Did he?

Don't worry, Robbie, I'll
take care of everything.

- All right, goodbye!

- Bye!

Morning.
- Morning!

- Bollinger?

- You've run out of milk.

- I do apologize.

- You sleep well?

- Yes!

- Sidney.

- Sidney.

And I'm Alexandra.

- Yes, I know.

- But they call me the Plugger.

- The Plugger?

- Ah.

- Bad news?

- It's from the Revolutionary
Tribunal in Petrograd.

I'm to be tried for
treason in my absence

and if found guilty
sentenced to death.

- That doesn't sound
too good, does it?

- No.

- Do we have an arrangement,
about my staying here?

I can't quite remember

because I was a little
under the weather.

- You blind drunk.

- More bad news?

- I've been awarded
the Military Cross.

- Congratulations.

- Thank you.

- what was the nature
of our arrangement?

- You were to live
with me for 30 days.

- In return for?

- 15 pounds a day plus
a Glisenti revolver.

- I distinctly remember the
figure 20 being mentioned.

- Yes it was, more than once,

but by you, not by me.

- Tell me.

Did I shoot an
apple off your head?

- Yes, you did.

- Must've been some night.

- It was.

- I haven't got a Vicente

but this is a Beretta, it
has similar characteristics.

- Keeps
jamming, my Luger.

- You've been using
Parabellum again, Captain.

- Yes,
I'm afraid I have.

- Well, you mustn't
complain if it jams.

- Perhaps you could take another
turn off the recoil spring?

- That would not make the

slightest bit of difference.

This gun always has
being a fuzzy feeder.

You should get yourself a new one.

- It's too light.

A girl in my profession
needs something heftier.

- May I ask what is
your profession, miss?

- I'm a whore.

For the duration, of course.

When the war is over,
it's back to mother.

- Oh this is a Mannlicher,

one of the most
beautiful guns ever made.

- What do you think, Sidney?

- It certainly is
very beautiful.

But it's Austrian, you
can't get the ammunition.

- I have two boxes.

- That's not enough.

- I don't intend to shoot

the entire male
population of London.

Just the occasional lover.

- We'll take it.
- Yes, sir.

You want me to
service the Luger?

- Yes, by this
afternoon, perhaps you
could send them over?

- Hello, Alexandra!

What are you doing here?

- Buying a gun.

- I thought the ring
came first, my dear.

- You've been back in the
country for four days!

Where the hell have you been?

- Why don't you say welcome
home or something civilized?

- Welcome home.

- Thank you.

- Do come in.

So, where have you been
for the past four days?

- Lying low.

- Very wise.

This Russian business
has all the makings

of a major fiasco!

- You know Lockhart's back.

Everyone's running for
cover, including the PM,

of course everyone's
looking for scapegoats.

The Foreign Office think
you're a German agent,

while the Treasury you
think you're crook.

- And what's the Foreign
Office been saying?

- That you were seen
dining in Berlin last week

as a guest of the German Navy.

- I was on my way
back from Russia.

- Damn it all, Sidney!

We are still at
war with Germany!

- The war is over!

- What do you mean it's over?

What the hell do you think
that is out there that?

That is the war!

- It won't last another week.

- and what's the
Treasury's complaint?

- Vast amounts of money
have been squandered by you

on unsanctioned
operations in Moscow.

The Bank of England
has a dozen notes

signed by Lockhart
on your instructions.

I gather they run into
millions of rubles!

- The stakes were
high out there.

Moscow is awash with
money, mostly German,

we had to keep our hand up!

- You don't have to convince me!

As you as far as this
department's concerned,

your credit is still good.

But someone has got to pay
for what happened out there,

despite the fact that
he's a public hero

that someone you will
probably be Lockhart.

- Lockhart was acting
under my instructions!

- More fool he.

- I don't think you understand.

If Kaplan hadn't shot Lenin,

we would've been
in power by now.

Don't you realize how close
we came to pulling it off?

- But in fact you failed!

Don't waste my time telling me

how closely you came
to pulling it off!

- Well, I'm not going to
let Lockhart go to the wall.

- Here.

- What's this?

- A Military Cross.

The gratitude of a grateful
nation and all that.

- Thank you.

- And my gratitude too.

Don't go into bat for Lockhart.

You won't get any thanks for it.

- Yes, sir.

From Stockholm.

- What is there to pay on that?

- Rail charges from Newcastle,
rest's been taken care of.

Oh, thank you, sir.

- Thank you.
- Thank you, sir.

- Mr. Krassin.

- Mr. Reilly.

- I got your letter.

- Our friends in Moscow
send greetings to you.

Have you seen this
morning's Times?

"One officer alone
passed 100,000 pounds

"in one week in Moscow
for the purposes

"of starting a
counter-revolution.

"What are these operations that

"our government dare
not disclose to us?"

So you see, your exploits
are making headlines

here as well as at home.

- What is it you
want Mr. Krassin?

- We Bolsheviks are faced with
the fate of all revolutions.

We have no money.

We either have to
borrow it or print it.

- So you want me
to arrange a loan?

- Is that possible?

- How much
do you have in mind?

- We need 250 million
dollars urgently.

- It may be possible.

- In the meantime, call
off your hired gun.

- Gun?

- There's a man who
stands outside my house,

he has the look of an assassin.

- He's not one of ours.

- I think he is.

- I'll see what I can do.

- I would appreciate that.

- It may take a little
time, it's chaos back there.

- In the meantime, perhaps you
could have a word with him,

he depresses me,
he never smiles.

I don't think he's
a city person.

That's him.

- The tribunal will
hear the charges

against Lockhart and Reilly.

Will the counsel
defending the two accused

make themself known.
- Present.

- Will the prosecutor
please begin?

- The charges against
Robert Bruce Lockhart,

the British envoy to the
Revolutionary Government,

and Sidney Reilly, the British
secret agent, are as follows.

That they conspired
from April of this year

to bring about the
destruction of the Revolution.

First by fomenting unrest
within the Latvian regiments

which guarded the Kremlin,

and secondly by distributing
large sums of money

to procure the services of

businessmen, priests,
and politicians.

- Now the purpose of the
inquiry is to establish

exactly what took
place in Moscow

during the earlier
part of this year,

in what has become known in
Russia as the Lockhart Plot.

Now we're fortunate in
that Mr. Bruce Lockhart

has been safely delivered from
his captivity in the Kremlin

and his observations, I hope,

will form the bulk
of this inquiry.

The other protagonist, the
mysterious Captain Reilly,

will not be making an
appearance I'm told,

because of his connections
with our Secret Service.

- Lockhart.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

- Sidney!

- Good lord what
are you doing here?

- I'm attending the hearing.

- So am I.

- Well, you have a dark secret.

How is it coming?

- My position was quite clear.

I was sent out to
persuade the Bolsheviks

to continue their
fight against Germany.

Even after the Peace
of Brest-Litovsk,

such was the aggressive
behavior of the German army,

it was just possible Lenin
might repudiate the treaty

and come back into the war.

Unfortunately, at that moment,
His Majesty's government,

in its wisdom, landed
an expeditionary force at Archangel.

- Savinkov, Minister of the
Russian government in exile.

- And you, sir?

- Captain Sidney Reilly,
Royal Canadian Flying Corps.

- Is either of you
gentlemen carrying arms?

- Where did you
first meet Reilly?

- In Moscow.

He called at my hotel.

He told me he had spoken
to the Prime Minister

before leaving London.

The Bolsheviks were to be
removed and a new government

friendly to the Allies
put in their place.

He said he had a plan.

- Reilly's plans
would require money?

- Yes.

- Where was it to come from?

- Through Commander Cromie,
who had large amounts

at the embassy in Petrograd.

The rest of it through me.

- And who's to be in
this new government?

- Reilly's friends.

Savinkov, Grammaticoff, Orlov.

It was to be broadly
right of center

- And the Romanovs?

- There's no place
in it for them.

- No Czar?

- No, sir.

- And who was to
head this government?

- Reilly himself.

- What the hell
are you doing here?

- I'm going to give evidence.

- You most certainly are not!

- Do you know Boris Savinkov?

What does he think
he's doing here?

- He is going to give evidence.

- This is an internal
inquiry to which

neither of you
have been invited.

To put it plainly,
you're not welcome!

- Boris, this is
Commander Cummings.

- How do you do?

- I don't believe your
paths have crossed.

- No but they've double-crossed.

We were promised two
divisions at Archangel.

- Not by me!

- You listen to me!

With two divisions,
we had a chance.

With the help of a miracle,
we could've done it with one,

we could, but you
sent me 600 men

and they arrived
two weeks too late.

If you deliberately
tried to destroy my army,

you couldn't have done better!

- The problem is we have
only your version of events.

- If Captain Reilly were
allowed to make a statement,

he would confirm my story.

And I believe he's just
outside, in the antechamber.

- Of course you want
the Bolsheviks removed,

but only with a government that
will protect your interests!

- Well, of course,
we do Mr. Savinkov!

- But by the time you've
decided, it'll be too late!

- The inquiry is
in here, Commander.

We were looking
for Captain Reilly.

- I'm Reilly.

- If you would have the
kindness to wait here.

- Hello, Sidney.
- Hello, Robbie.

- Thanks for coming.

- Boris is here.

Keep an eye on him, he's
getting a bit excited.

- Gentlemen, I intend to adjourn

this inquiry for the time being.

I've just received a
dispatch from Compiegne.

It confirms that we have come

to terms with the
German government.

There's to be an armistice
as from midnight.

The war is over!

♪ For he's a jolly good fellow

♪ For he's a jolly good fellow

♪ And so say all of us

♪ Rule Britannia

♪ Britannia rules the waves

♪ Rule Britannia

♪ Britannia rules the waves

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

♪ Britons never never
never shall be slaves ♪

- Are you a friend of Sidney's?

- I had an appointment
to see him this evening,

unfortunately I was delayed.

The streets were so jammed
and the trams have stopped.

- Trams?

Well, go down the hall,
first room on the left.

- Thank you.
- Yes, good.

- Don't you think it's odd

that 2,000 miles away we're
on trial for our lives?

Kind of an odd sensation.

- Don't you find it
slightly pleasurable?

I mean, that sense of distance?

- I've just been
telling Lockhart

that I wouldn't mind Hill making
a statement on his behalf,

but not you, Sidney.

- But Hill is not here.

- Really?

Then who is that
coming across the room?

- Sidney!

Robbie!

- What a day to come home!

- I thought they put
you up against a wall.

- Where have you been?

- Bucharest, I had to
remove the Imperial

Crown jewels to a
place of safekeeping.

- And where are
the jewels, George?

- In my motorcar, sir.

- What a clever chap he is.

Ah!

- Hello Commander!

- My dear Plugger.

On who are you currently
bestowing your favors?

- Sidney Reilly.

- Are you indeed?

- Do you know him?

- Like yourself,
only professionally.

- This is for you.

A present from Shasha.

- How is he?

- Well, he sends his regards.

He's moved back to Petrograd.

Can't keep away from Pugers.

Thank you.

- These are Marie Fried's?

- Yes.

- Captain Reilly?

- Yes?

- I'm Caryll Houselander.

- Oh, yes.

- They're very pretty.

- You brought your drawings?

- Yes.

- Let's have a look at them.

You've never been to Russia?

- No, they're taken
from photographs.

Some were composite.

- You make them well.

- Well, there's a demand,

the magazines need pictures
to illustrate their stories.

You were there

- Oh, yes.

- Do they look right?

- Extraordinary,
quite uncanny.

- Woo!

- 32.

How long have you lived
in this house with Boris?

- Two weeks.

- What's he like?

- He's on morphine
most of the time.

- What about Sidney?

- He's a bit warped too.

- Cheers.

- I'm going to set
up a new organization

to get us back into power.

Independent of
London and Washington

But it'll need money.

I need you to find it.

I'll deal with Russia,

you can deal with all these
rogues here in the West.

What do you say?

- I'm not sure I'm
up to it, Boris.

- A month ago we were
nearly masters of Moscow,

only that girl's gun stopped us.

- The fact is we lost,
we lost to Dzerzhinsky.

We also lost a lot of
friends in the Lubyanka

and I feel responsible.

- So the situation in Euroslavia.

Latvians here, Czechs,
Japanese, huh, and Poles.

- There is someone outside.

- What do you mean someone?

- His name is Adamson,
he's come from Petrograd

to put a bullet through my head.

- How'd you learn this?

- From a comrade called Kressin.

- Kressin?

He's a Bolshevik!

- There's no reason
to doubt his word on this.

- Assassin!

Assassin!

Come here.

Little nightcap, perhaps?

Lenin cocktail?

Brought a present from
Petrograd, I hear!

I'm inviting you
to drink with me.

Now don't, don't, don't pretend
you don't know who I am.

Boris Savinkov, eh?

Razed Euroslavia in seven days.

Hung a hundred of your
comrades in a single afternoon.

I'm inviting
you to join me.

We have a guest.

Well, what'll we drink to?

- To peace and freedom.

- That suits me,
peace and freedom.

- Where do you
come from, comrade?

- Riga.

My mother was born in Ratsleve

- Oh, I know Ratsleve.

- Your name is Adamson.

- Yes.

- What
brings you to London?

- I came to kill
you, Your Honor.

- Why have you waited so long

when I've given you
so many opportunities?

- There comes a moment
when one decides.

When I track a man,
I get to know him.

There is a weakness in you.

It surprises me but it's there.

- Don't count on it, my friend.

- Thank you, sir.

- No, no, no, so, sir, I thank
you for coming to see us.

- Good night, Your Honor.

- Good night, Your
Honor.

- They're at their most
dangerous when they're polite.

- Look, if you want
me to get rid of him...

- No, no.

Tell me, how much
money do you need

for this organization of yours?

- Well, let's say a million
dollars. That in the first year,

we wanna have the
organization set then

and we'll organize the cells.

In the second year, maybe less.

- Have you ever thought
of perhaps robbing banks?

- I thought of everything.

What we need to begin
with is 100,000 dollars.

- I'll see what I can do.

- I'd given you up for dead.

Well, you've got your loan.

Glenn's will act
for the principals

- Go on
- You'll receive 50 million at once,

another hundred will
follow in four weeks time

and the balance in three months.

- And what's the interest?

- It will be high.

And so will my
commissioning fee.

- 1%
- Three

- That's impossible!

- Do you mean it cuts
into your margin?

- The offer is firm?

- Oh yes, the bank
will want security,

expense being maturing.

Can you get me a portfolio?

- Of course.

- Good, then it's a deal.

- We'll share the Commission.

- You're a Bolshevik, Krassin,
what do want money for?

- Regarding Adamson.

He won't listen to me.

Will you deal with him?

He's your comrade, comrade.

- The inquiry into the
conduct of our affairs

in northern Russia continues.

Captain George Hill has
agreed to give evidence.

Leeper, will you begin?

- Captain Hill, you
were known as ST7,

what does that signify?

- ST stands for Stockholm,
Stockholm is the base

for our intelligence
operations in Russia.

- And ST1 was?

- Captain Reilly.

- Thank you, sir.

- I saw you coming.

Take off your coat.

- Is this yours?

- It belonged to my father.

Tea?

- Yes, please.

- That's the mysterious man
who was going round Moscow

spending thousands on
the counter-revolution.

- You've been reading the Times?

- Yes.

- You should be careful
where you place this,

it could cause embarrassment.

- I was joking, it's
not going anywhere.

You can have it.

- I'd be glad to pay for it.

- No, please.

I give it to you.

- What's all this
in the background?

- Plots, plans,
and conspiracies.

Is that how it was?

It was a lot of that.

It was also something else.

Passion.

Life was lived at speed.

- That's how I like
to experience it.

- I'm told you're a seer.

- Yes.

It's a gift from my grandmother.

That's her up there.

- Do you remember these?

They belonged to
a friend of mine.

She died in the Lubyanka
yard after Lenin was shot.

Can you tell me something
about her final hours?

- I thought you came here
to buy my sketches, Captain.

- I just thought you
might be able to help.

It's very important.

- Could we come to the
night of August the 30th?

- Yes.

- You were in Petrograd?

- Yes, I was at the Embassy
with Cromie and Sidney Reilly.

Reilly received a call
from a friend of his

warning us that
Lenin had been shot.

I told Cromie and
he immediately began

the destruction of
the codes and ciphers.

Reilly was more concerned
about the money.

- The money?

- The 800 thousand
pounds in Cromie's safe

When the Cheka arrived,

Cromie seized a pair of
revolvers to defend the place.

Reilly tried to persuade
him to come with us

but he would have none of it.

There was something
of an argument

and we left by a rear window.

- This is an extremely
serious business, Captain.

You've just told us how
you abandoned Cromie

to a mob of frenzied Chekas,

and then took off with
the contents of his safe.

- Cromie was trying
to save the ciphers,

Reilly was trying
to save the money.

It was needed for the
defeat of the Bolsheviks.

You could say that Cromie
was fighting the last war

and Reilly fighting the next.

- Where is the money now?

"My dear Boris,

"herewith, the
first installment."

- Sidney?

Hurry.

How long will you be?

- Just coming.

- Where is he?
- In the study.

Why don't you go to bed?

- Just leave me alone,
I'll be all right.

- Well where did you bury him?

- Under the lake
in St. James' Park.

They've drained it
for the duration

but they are
filling it tomorrow.

A nice place to be laid to rest.

Peaceful.

Morning, my dear.

Well, he certainly
chose his moment.

- Did I tell you I
just had the Luger serviced?

- I wonder why he didn't

get you the first time.

- Deserved repose to Adamson

and a Satan's lot is not a happy one.

- Reilly.

- Sidney.
- I just had notice from the Revolutionary
Tribunal in Moscow.

I'm sentenced to
death and so are you.

- Yes, I've had one, too.

- What does it mean?

Means you can't
go back to Russia

while the Bolsheviks
are in power.

So if you wanna see more again

we're gonna have
to get them out.

- And how do we do that?

I don't know yet but I'm leaving

the Secret Service
to join Savinkov.

Any time you want to join
us, you'll be welcome.

- Here, these belong to you.

- Well, how did you get on?

- Just one image.

That's you, in the snow.

I saw you walk down that hill.

- There's nothing
here about Marie Fried.

- No.

That is nothing as strong

as the image of you
in the clearing.

- How can you explain that?

- I can't.

- You've just foretold
my death, is that it?

- Yes.

Do you recognize the location?

- Yes, those are the Sparrow
Hills outside Moscow.

What happened here?

- Those are the marks
the earrings made.

- I'm sorry for
being so ungrateful.

- He gave me this
message for you,

"No more games."

- "No more games?"

- That's what he said.

It was touch-and-go, we
nearly lost the loan.

- What about Adamson?

- I think Reilly
took care of him.

- Thank you, Kressin.

- We may need him again.

- In my idea, we should be
playing more games, not less.

- Mm, that's what I feel.

I have a plan for the
biggest game of all.

A revolutionary
organization in Moscow

dedicated to our
own destruction.

Everybody who hates us will join

and everybody who
attacked us from abroad

will be lured back home.

In it, every Western government

will see the
salvation of Russia,

what they won't see
is that we control it.

- Too dangerous.

When you play that game,
who knows in the end

who will control who.

- It's the only way we'll get Reilly.

- I can't persuade you to stay?

- I said that when the war was
over I'd go back to mother.

- Well, I imagine this will
come in very useful in, uh...

- Sunningdale.
- Sunningdale!

Is there anything
I can do for you?

- Yes, I've got
a box stuff here,

mostly medals given to me
by some very young men.

I don't want to keep them

and I don't want
to throw them out.

- I'll see they're returned.

- Good luck.

Though I can't help feeling
you're living on borrowed time.

- We get along, you and I.

You know that.

- Yes.

- Look after yourself, my dear.

- Bye-bye.

- Following the
inquiry of the Foreign Office,

Lockhart has given a junior
post in Czechoslovakia,

which he endured for
a number of years

before resigning to
become a journalist.

Hill stayed on in
the Secret Service

founding, along with
Reilly and others,

a luncheon club dedicated to
the destruction of Bolshevism.

Despite the close
personal ties which Reilly

still retained with the service,

his future now lay
with Boris Savinkov

and the Russian emigre movement

to whom he committed
all his time and money.
