All language subtitles for Hugo och Josefin (1967)

HUGO AND JOSEPHINE

Josephine! Didn't you hear me?
Please give me the shoe.

And don't disturb your dad.
He's busy writing his sermon.

One day God will...

The day when He...
No, not again. Go away, please.

PARISH REGISTRATION
Office hours: Mon-Wed 2-5 pm

We live pretty far from the village,
so Josephine has no one to play with.

Oh, I don't know.

Oh, I do plenty,
but not what I want to do.

Hang on a second...
What are you doing in here, honey?

Go out and play.
And give me that shoe.

I've run away.

I've run away... really.

- There's no one to play with.
- As if I care.

My dad's a parson.

- When I talk, no one talks to me.
- I'm not surprised.

- May I ride your bike?
- No. The chain came off.

- I'm all alone!
- And who isn't?

One day God will return and you'll
be punished for everything you do.

For God does everything
ha wants to.

And you'll be punished,
because God does what he likes.

You'll be afraid and you'll call out,
but it won't do any good.

Let us now sing Hymn 802.

You know who Gudmarsson is? And
yet you allow him to work here?

- Are you afraid of him?
- We should keep a watch on him.

- But we have to have a gardener.
- He's no gardener!

- He's already here, and I trust him.
- There's more to it than just trust.

Gudmarsson, Gudmarsson...

You can't go to the lake
until you can swim.

And you can't go to the
stream - either. Not alone, anyway.

It's dangerous. The stones are
slippery and the bottom is muddy.

You mustn't go near it.

I hereby christen you
Josephine Johandersson.

Dad, is this a picture of God?

Yes, it is God.

We're having a fine summer
this year.

- Who is it?
- Hi, Uncle!

How are you?

You've grown old, I see.
I can tell by your beard.

A lot of beard
and not much hair.

It's prickly!

- Aren't you going to work?
- Did I hear you say shirk?

- Is that boy coming back?
- I don't know.

- He lives in the distant forest.
- What's his name?

Hugo...

Isn't Hugo Andersson here?

Isn't Jenny Gr� here, either?

Yes, but she's not used
to being called Jenny.

My name is Josephine.

The other kids laugh at me.

And a teacher
should have blond hair.

I'll never have any playmates.

Faster! Once more!

- You've never had any playmates.
- Yes, I have.

- A boy named Hugo.
- What was his other name?

Hugo Hugo!

- You just made it up!
- Only boys have rucksacks.

I don't tell lies.

I just make things up. It's more
fun than telling the truth.

You've never had any playmates.

Hugo! You just made it up!

- Hi!
- Hi...

- What are you doing?
- Whittling.

- A bark boat?
- No.

- What then?
- A troll.

- May I see it?
- When I'm done.

- Going to school?
- I'm supposed to.

- I'm in the first grade.
- Me, too - I think.

- Who is your teacher?
- I don't know.

Mine is Ingrid Sund.
Come on, we must hurry.

I'll come when I've finished this.

A man had a hundred sheep.
One of them went astray.

He left all the other sheep
and went searching for it.

- Ingrid, continue...
- When he found the sheep he was...

- I'm supposed to start school.
- You haven't attended school before?

You weren't here for roll call either?
Your mother isn't here either?

You aren't Hugo Andersson,
are you?

- Yes, I am.
- We wondered where you were.

You did? Every time I came here
it was closed up.

- Well, now you know your way here.
- I knew it before. I was just late.

There's a good seat.
Oh, hello.

I know I should greet the teacher
first, but I know Josephine already.

- What's your name?
- Christina.

- You can do that during recess.
- I can't start class till I say hello.

- Does your aunt live at K�rrvik?
- No.

- Won't you remove your rucksack?
- Yes, thank you.

- Try and take school seriously.
- I take everything seriously.

This is juniper wood.
Doesn't it smell nice?

Freeze!

Freeze!

ERRANDS - SERVICES
25 cents Hugo A.

"Errands... services."

"Two... five... cents. Hugo A."

- Hugo ran faster than the horse.
- He must have run very fast.

- Then he pulled the bulls ear!
- But you said it was a horse.

- That was another time.
- Has Hugo learned to read yet?

- He knows everything by heart.
- He must learn to read from a book.

He doesn't need books.
He knows everything anyway.

Those are Karl Karlsson's socks.
He invented a potato-peeling machine.

But no one knows how to use it.
Maybe it doesn't even work.

I get 25 cents for cutting his hair.

It sure does grow quickly.

- May I see your potato peeler?
- Yes, it's up in the attic.

It's all set up now.

Please sit down.

- Would you like it shorter?
- Yes, just a touch.

- Does it itch?
- No, it's fine.

- You sure have a lot of potatoes.
- Yes, don't I?

- It's short enough now.
- You think so?

- That's all then.
- What about my head?

- Does it feel nice?
- It sure does.

Wait!

- Are you saving up for a bike?
- No, this is to live on.

- Don't your parents pay for that?
- No.

- But you'd like a bike?
- I sure would.

I know where there's one.
In the empty factory - but it's old.

That doesn't matter. Come on!

Not so fast!

Where are you?

Looking for your friend?
A blond kid with green suspenders?

He went that way.

What's your name?

You must have a name.

It's Josephine... or Jenny.

- I saw some men here.
- Must be brownies. They do exist.

I've only heard there's a bike here.
I'm not sure.

Pigeons...

Do you hear a clock?
Is it a ghost clock?

It's death-watch beetles.
They eat old wood.

To call to each other they close their
jaws. It sounds like a clock ticking.

Why the name "death-watch"?

Here's the bike!

- Aren't you in bed yet?
- And Hugo and I went cycling...

You can tell me more about Hugo
tomorrow. It's bedtime.

No one knows where Hugo is?
He's been gone for over two weeks.

Gone!

Gone!

Hugo's dad is in jail.

You're lying.

- You're lying!
- Lying, am I?

Yes, you're lying!

You're lying all the time!

Hugo, they weren't brownies.

You can't mean he stood there when
he heard what his sentence was?

He told the court he refused
to bear arms.

He's being jailed
for refusing to be a soldier?

- Do you think it's fair?
- It's the law.

- You think it's a crime?
- Yes and no.

You don't have anything to do
in the evening, do you?

Why are you our gardener
if you aren't a real gardener?

- Did you hear me?
- Yes.

Can't you answer?

No.

Do you want it to be a secret?

Are you sad?
I'm sad, too.

- Why?
- It's a secret.

Can you dance?
It's easy. May I?

I'll show you
how to dance a waltz.

I'm dancing with Josephine...

Shall we count?
One, two, three...

- Am I doing it right?
- Just fine.

- Can't you make Hugo come back?
- Isn't he at school?

Then I'll make sure he comes back.
I promise.

- Seriously now. Promise me.
- I promise.

How did you shift for
yourself so long?

I'm sure glad you came to get me.

- Am I to live here now?
- It's best. I think so, anyway.

It's late. Are you tired?

I'd like to show you something.

- Or are you usually in bed by now?
- I'm wide awake.

Come over here. I want
to show you something.

You see, this is all rather...

- Did you hear me?
- No.

- Thinking of something else?
- Yes.

We'll do this another time.

Thanks, I enjoyed the meal.

He isn't wearing suspenders!

- Welcome back, Hugo. We missed you.
- You did?

Those animals take
a lot of one's time.

He's lying.
He didn't dare come.

I'm studying water spiders, you see.

I have no time for anything else,
so I thought...

Sit down, Hugo.

This is the book
we're reading now.

Did you want to talk to me?

No.

Page 26. At the top of the page
it says: "Let's change some money."

HOLIDAY MONDAY AND TUESDAY
PAGE 26

Teacher! Hugo is sleeping!

Josephine, help!

They're coming this way.

Scare them off!

- I can't scare anybody.
- Pretend you're a ghost.

Sing or scream.
No, scream!

I must have slipped.

- They've gone now.
- Were they hunting you?

- No, elk.
- Why were you so scared then?

They're the finest elk in the world.
I've seen many of them.

I'll make you a kaleidoscope.

Can a kind person
be put in jail?

Care for a game?

No.

- Sure? It's fun.
- You've looked happy lately.

Yes, I am happy.
How about a game?

Don't you dare? I mean, on a
weekday. You can win if you like.

Don't you ever grow up?

You talk like a maiden aunt.
I remember you in school.

- What do you remember?
- A lot. You don't want to play?

- Are you doing something else then?
- Yes.

- Been waiting for me?
- I sure have.

Your dad's sleeping.

Hugo's going to make me a
kaleidoscope.

- Do you know what that is?
- Yes, I think so.

It's like a telescope or a long tube.
And in the bottom of the tube...

To make a kaleidoscope,
you gather objects.

You take bits of broken glass
and mirrors...

...and old cups,
things that have been thrown away.

You put the bits into the
kaleidoscope and they're magnified.

The change shape and look like stars
and flowers. It can be very beautiful.

So Hugo is back now?

This is where my dad worked.

This is my dad's hat. I got
a letter from him yesterday.

He said they got new red-and-white
striped curtains in prison.

- What'll you use the bottle for?
- Josephine's kaleidoscope. Empty.

Dad! Dad!

It's for you. Dad...

Yes, I'm leaving. Hugo's dad returns
tomorrow. He won't need me.

If I knew where I was needed
I'd go there.

- You don't know?
- I must find out.

- Again?
- Yes, again.

We owe you some money.

Why are you going?!

He's going away!

- On the main road!
- I'll take a short cut.

I'm lost!

Bring another chair.

- There are no more chairs.
- Bring the sofa then!

In a faraway land lives a family
called the Bombassats.

- They're always leaving one another.
- And where are you going?

- The Bombassats don't know.
- You don't know where you're going?

They never really know where.

- What will you do?
- They never ask one another.

- Yet there are 18 of them.
- Do the girls go, too?

No, they're all brothers and
they're all named Jonie Bombassat.

- No girls?
- Yes, one.

- What's her name?
- Let me see...

- Josephine Bombassat.
- Does she go away, too?

- Often.
- Are they sad when she goes away?

No, the Bombassat family are
never sad. They sing instead.

Come here!

Dinner...

The Bombassat family eat
their eggs whole. Like this.

Each time a member
of the family goes away

he first tells a story
about the sea.

The story always begins with
"Once upon a time in the Atlantic."

But they never finish the story.
They stop in the middle.

Those who are listening sit still and
the one telling the story stands up.

And the ones still sitting there
say: "Be seeing you."

And the one who's going away
says: "So long."

Once upon a time in the Atlantic,
on a ship named The Monita...

...I was lookout on the port side,
in the midst of a gale.

It was after the war, February, 1946.
I was on the lookout

for drifting mines. And what
do you think happened then?

- Be seeing you!
- So long!

What about the furniture?

Bull's eye!

If anyone calls me
to go home

I'll shout back that
I'm waiting for your dad.
