All language subtitles for Morgan the Pirate

MORGAN THE PIRATE

Henry Morgan, whose exploits are world famous,
was one of the boldest and most chivalrous
adventurers of the 17th Century.

Chief of Freebooters, Ally of Buccaneers, he
plundered Spanish ships to capture priceless
treasures.

Panama, one of the richest cities
of the Spanish colonial empire.

Have you ever seen such a set of
teeth? She's in beautiful condition.

Get down.

Open your mouth.

Believe me, her teeth are perfect.

She's in beautiful condition.

Make way! Clear the road
there! Make way!

It's the governor's daughter.

Hold him still!

Her ladyship says that you should
not treat a prisoner that way.

This is not a Christian, your
excellency. The wretch is English.

What's more, I curse the day
I bought him in Carthagina

That's enough! Send him to the palace.

I wish to buy him.

At your service, madam. I'll have
him sent over immediately.

Let him go.

Let go of him.

Go!

"...and in spite of these circumstances
which force me to be apart from you,

believe me, my ladyship, my heart
beats faster at the thought of you.

For although you are a princess of the realm, and
I am but a commoner in the service of my country

I dare to raise my eyes and look
upon you in your sublime beauty

The sweet ambition in my humble
life is to let my love guide me...

You're an Englishman, aren't you?

Yes, you know I am.

- How is she?
- Fine.

It'll only be a matter of a few days now.

Call me when the foal is
born. I wish to see it.

I will.

What is your name?

Henry Morgan.

Why are you so familiar with this slave?

You shouldn't even talk to him.

Inez, you must be mad. You
know your father will be angry.

And you know perfectly well that the
governor's daughter has no business being here,

in a stable at night, just to see a
foal. Can't it wait until morning?

No, it can't.

Don't worry about it. Wait outside
and let me know if anyone comes.

You know how to care for horses.

I used to take care of them, yes.

I see. You were in the
service of a nobleman?

No, my father owned them.

And how is it that you
ended up like this?

My father was an ardent royalist.

When Cromwell took power,
he had him executed.

And then?

I was abducted and made a slave.

I've spent most of my life at sea.

It may be that one day my father
will give you your liberty.

He would only give what was rightfully
mine. I was born a free man.

You are insolent. You have no rights
at all and you deserve no pity.

I don't want pity.
Especially from you.

There's only one way to
treat somebody like you!

Guards! Guards! Come here!

- Arrest that man!
- Yes, mistress!

Let's go.

His excellency the governor!

By order of his excellency Don Jose Guzman,
Marquis of Mendoza and Salinas,

Viceroy of the Indies and governor of Panama,

and in the name of His Majesty Philip IV,
King of Spain and Portugal,

the court of justice convened by
his excellency Don Jose Guzman

has met and heard the overwhelming evidence
against these prisoners by their own confessions

and hereby condemns the following men to
suffer the penalty of death by quartering

They stand confessed of offences against
His Majesty's benevolent government

However, as today is the feast of Our Lady of
the Pillar, his excellency has exercised clemency

The lives of five prisoners will be spared and their sentences
commuted to hard labour on His Majesty's warships

Only one prisoner will suffer the penalty
of death as ordered by the court

The names of the four prisoners who will benefit
from this clemency will be drawn by lot

The execution of the sixth man will follow immediately.

Father! Save me! Save me, Father!

Now's the time.

- Wait till they turn to leave.
- I'll take the one who has the keys.

Hold the men in front of you!
Use them as shields!

Stand by to fire!

Fire!

Captain Morgan! We will follow you
anywhere and be proud to serve you.

Long live Morgan!

Quiet, friends.

I've given you your freedom. Now let's settle our
score with the Spanish and become rich in the bargain.

First we'll need supplies. There are
pirates on the Isle of Tortuga.

Let's join them and they'll give
us all the supplies we need.

Bring me the passengers we
captured with that ship last night.

You two come with me.

I prefer the other one.

Welcome to Tortuga.

Who are you? What are you doing here?

I'm Captain Morgan. These are my men. We've
captured a Spanish galleon and want to join you.

So. You want to join us?

There's something you should know first.

Here everybody takes orders from me.

Anything else?

I want these women.

And I want you to give
me supplies for my men.

Incidentally, I always get what I want.

That's to remind you that my
men take orders only from me.

So you want to play games with me?

Very well.

I would pray if I were you, you're
going to need all the help you can get.

That man is the English
slave you bought.

Yes, I know.

You made a mistake.
You should have killed me.

Now I want supplies.
Clothes for my men.

Get him some clothes.

Here, just your size.

- You'll be as pretty as a picture.
- May I have the next dance?

Just the colour of your eyes!

Pick up those dresses and
store them, hurry up.

They may come in handy.

You wanted the women,
you can have them.

Come with me.

Don't forget your
pretty frillies, boys!

Captain Morgan.

I want to thank you for what you've done.

Also, one of your men took a medallion
from me that belonged to my mother.

I'll get it for you.

Thank you.

What happened in Panama was horrible.
I didn't know men could be so cruel.

Women can be cruel
too, can't they?

When we get back, I'll see
you are generously rewarded.

What were you doing in Tortuga?

It was all your fault. Because of you
my father made me sail for Spain.

Now it's your duty to
return me to Panama.

You think I'd risk the lives of my men
just to take you back to Panama?

I order you.

You give me an order? I don't
take orders from anyone.

Whether you want to or not, you're
going to stay right here in Tortuga.

Galleon to port!

Sound all hands on deck.

Hoist the Spanish colours.

We're going to take her.
Stand by to come about.

I think she's flying the Spanish flag.

Are you ready, girls?

Must be prostitutes bound for the Indies.

Be careful as we draw alongside. I don't
want them to see we've got men aboard.

Ahoy! Do you need anything?

Is everything in order on board?

Yes, but we could do with fresh water.

Come in closer.

Here's a couple of love
notes they won't forget.

Hey! Those aren't women!
Sound the alarm, it's a trap!

To your stations!

Board her!

Drop them!

Water.

Water.

Water.

Water.

He's dying!

I'm afraid he's finished.

You have his blood on your hands!

This is no place for you.

We've come back with a full purse and
all thanks to one man, Captain Morgan!

Long live Morgan's buccaneers!

What's the matter?
Are you sad?

No. I was thinking of you.

I never want to leave you.

You will have to some day.

- Is this your medallion?
- Yes!

Thank you, Captain Morgan.

Where are you going?
Are you afraid of me?

No. I'm just tired.

Who are you, beautiful?

Concepcion.

You won a great victory
today, Captain Morgan.

You fought like a hero.

There are some things you
can't get by fighting.

You mean that Spanish woman.

You treat her like a queen.
She's only a woman.

If you want her, go and take her.

You're still thinking of her!

I'm sorry.

What are you doing here?

Don't worry.

I'm not worried.

But if you expect me to throw myself
at your feet, you're mistaken.

I'll never get down on
my knees before you.

Inez, you're mistaken. I've never
said this to any other woman.

I love you. I always have.

Ever since I first met you,
nothing else mattered.

There isn't anything in the world -

You can say what you like! You give the
orders here as I give them in Panama.

But you'd better not forget: to me you're
a servant, a pirate, a thief, and a murderer.

Prisoner of Morgan the Pirate.

- Are you sure?

Yes, your excellency. I'm sure.

My daughter alive and in
the hands of pirates.

Take this down: I want to make this known
in every corner of His Majesty's empire.

A reward of 15,000 ducats to whoever
captures or kills Morgan the Pirate.

Hear ye, the people are hereby advised of an official
decree to be made known throughout the civilised world,

Under the order of Don Jose Guzman,
marquis of Mendoza and governor of Panama,

and in the name of His Majesty Philip IV,
beloved holy ruler, King of Spain and Portugal,

King of Naples and Sardinia, Defender of the Faith,

a reward of 15,000 ducats is offered to anyone
who succeeds in capturing dead or alive

the scourge of the seas, Morgan the Pirate.

Be it known that his Majesty Philip IV, King of
Naples and Sardinia, Defender of the Faith,

offers a reward of 30,000 ducats
for the capture of Morgan.

His excellency Don Jose Guzman, marquis
of Mendoza and governor of Panama,

proclaims that the reward for the capture
of Morgan the Pirate has been raised

from 30,000 to 50,000 ducats.

- It's a ship!
- An English ship!

That means rum!

I am Sir Thomas Modyford, governor of Jamaica.

I wish to speak with Captain Morgan on
behalf of His Majesty the King of England

He must be somebody important,
what do you think?

Long live England.

Will you take me to Captain Morgan?

This way.

There's an English ship in port.

If you can get me and my companion
aboard my father will pay you well.

How much?

At least 20,000 ducats.

So you have a father who has
20,000 ducats to spend on you.

Are you really worth that much?

My father is marquis of Mendoza
and governor of Panama.

You'll get your money, I promise you.

Keep her under guard.
Don't let her out of your sight.

No, Sir Thomas. I feel no allegiance
for the King of England.

I am my own master.

And I'm not prepared to give up my
freedom. Not even for a knighthood.

It's not only a knighthood
which has been offered you,

but also very tangible aid.

Men. Arms. Even ships, if necessary.

You will have a fleet at your disposal.
No pirate has ever had so much.

And very few kings have had so much.

My congratulations. I can see you're
more than worthy of your fame.

You have made quite a name
for yourself, Morgan.

Still, with the aid of His Majesty you
could attack entire convoys.

Think of the treasures you
would take in then.

And what does your majesty
want in exchange?

A mere third of the spoils.

But booty is hardly the king's
only concern, Morgan,

by fighting on our side you would be helping
England with her undeclared war with Spain.

Think of what it would
mean for us and for you.

You were a slave only a short while ago. Now
you can return to your native England a free man,

honoured and respected, perhaps with
the rank of Admiral in His Majesty's fleet.

Wouldn't that honour be worth fighting for?

I will go back to my ship.

I will wait 24 hours before weighing anchor.
Think it over and let me know your decision.

Why should we respect English
ships and become their allies?

We don't need allies, we attack
who we want when we want.

The risk is ours, but the booty is too.
Why should we divide it with the King?

Are we pirates or are we not?

Ever since Captain Morgan joined us he's
thought himself fit to make his own laws.

One day England and Spain will unite.
They'll turn on us and wipe us off the map.

We could be part of an Empire. I
speak in your interests as well as mine.

Our interests as well as yours?

Bring the girl.

Do you know who she is?

What is this?

You know who her father is.

If you're so concerned in our interests why haven't you
told us she's the daughter of the governor of Panama?

That's no concern of yours.

You're wrong. A prisoner of this
importance means a very big ransom.

And that does concern us.

You've been trying to
cheat us, haven't you?

I've heard that the governor has offered
20,000 ducats for his daughter's return.

I'll give you 30,000.

I don't think she's worth that much.

But it's your money.
Throw it away if you wish.

Let her go.

If you want so badly to leave Tortuga,
leave on the British ship, it sails with the tide.

Now let's stop wasting time. We've
got other business to attend to.

- We're going to take Panama.
- Attack Panama?

- That's impossible.
- Are you out of your mind?

It can be done, and here's how.
We'll take Panama from the Pacific side.

It'll be a long haul, but it'll be worth it.
Panama is the richest city in the Americas.

Inez. I know you'll think I've
gone mad, but I'm staying.

Do you really want to stay here
with these criminals?

I want to stay here because
I've found the man I love.

Do you realise what you're doing?
You can't come home again.

I know. But I'm going to stay.

I'll never forget you. You'll stay in my heart.

My daughter is safe. It seems like a miracle.

And I have you to
thank for it, Sir Thomas.

Sir, I have only done my duty, and I
must add it was a very pleasant one.

I had offered a reward to the man who
would rescue my daughter.

That reward is yours. I hope you'll
do me the honour of accepting it.

In that case, sir, I beg you to distribute the
reward amongst the poor of this city,

so they might share our happiness in the
return of your lovely daughter Dona Inez.

You're more than generous, Sir Thomas,
and I'm indebted to you for life.

And I hope this strife between
our two countries will soon end.

Then together we'll rid the
seas of this man Morgan.

According to what my daughter told me,
Morgan said he would attack Panama soon.

A madman's boast, your excellency.

He has taken Carthagina and Portobello.

Panama is impregnable from the sea,

and no-one in his right mind could think
of capturing it from the interior.

Whatever his plans may be, let
us not be taken by surprise.

You will double the watch along
the coast day and night.

Very soon we will avenge the outrages
you have suffered from Morgan, my dear.

I don't want vengeance, father,
that's not why I warned you.

I did it for the safety of our people.

Have no fear. Panama will receive
that pirate as he deserves.

Excellent. A wonderful plunder.
The king shall be pleased.

As a token of His Majesty's
pleasure, I want men and ships.

I want to attack Panama. As you know
it's the richest city in the Americas.

No pirate ship has ever gone near Panama.

No pirate ship has ever tried it. They
won't expect it. We'll take them by surprise.

Nine o'clock and all's well.

Nine o'clock and all's well.

Nine o'clock and all's well.

There they are.

Go.

Morgan kept his word.

Concentrate your fire on the first ship.

Stand by. They're coming in.
Don't fire until you get the order.

Panama. I can't believe my eyes.

Fire!

To the guns! Open fire!

Get away! Give me the wheel!

Return fire!

Give the other ship covering fire!

Swim for the Santa Barbara!
All hands abandon ship!

We may have destroyed his ship, but
who knows if Morgan went down with it.

There's no doubt of that, your excellency.
No-one could have survived that bombardment.

Right now Morgan and his buccaneers are
feeding the fish at the bottom of the sea.

God be praised.

...marquis of Mendoza and governor of Panama
will hold a celebration tonight to herald

the defeat and inglorious end of
the notorious Morgan the Pirate.

Your excellency.

I ask permission for the honour
of dancing with Dona Inez.

She will be delighted to dance with you.

She has every reason to celebrate tonight.

- Who's that?
- I don't know.

Would your excellency be so kind as
to accept a small gift on my behalf.

I owe a personal debt of gratitude
to your valiant soldiers.

Someone dear to me is safe
because of the death of Morgan.

Thank you.

Could you read this please?

Well? You read it then.

Go on.

The pirate Morgan begs your
excellency the governor of Panama

to accept this small token of his admiration.

He is profoundly moved by the
magnificence of the festivities

which you were good enough to
arrange to celebrate his death

and he promises to visit you again

under less formal conditions.

Signed, Your Excellency's Servant,
Henry Morgan.

This joke is in poor taste.

And in the circumstances I would
say it is completely preposterous.

It's what the English would
call a 'sense of humor'.

I hope you know I had no choice
but to warn them of your coming.

It was my duty.

It's also your duty to turn me in.

Why don't you?

You must leave and forget that
we ever knew each other.

Very well. But first I want to hear
you say that you don't love me

and never see me again.

I don't love you and never want
to see you again. Now go.

I've wanted to kiss you
like that for so long.

I've tried to hide it but I
can't help myself any more.

You don't know how much
I've been in love with you.

Take me with you. I'll
go with you anywhere.

It's impossible. My men are waiting for me and
we have a dangerous journey ahead of us.

I want to go away with you.

One day I'll come back and take you with me,
not to Tortuga, but far away from this violence.

When will you come back?

Quickly. I promise you.

Wait for me.

I will.

For the last time, who was that man?

You might as well tell me. You were
seen speaking to him on the balcony.

I'm waiting for an explanation.

There's nothing to explain.

- Well?
- We've questioned everyone, excellency,

the palace guards, the city gates...a man fitting
the description left an hour ago on horseback.

He's far away by now.

That's all.

Perhaps that man was Morgan, and
and perhaps you're now his accomplice.

You've betrayed me and your country
by consorting with a murderer.

I don't know who he was.

Swear it. Swear that you
don't know who he was.

No...it's not possible.

Forgive me, father.

I love him.

I'm glad your mother is dead.

Your behaviour has soiled our name.
What happened in Tortuga?

- You really want to know what happened?
- No!

I will pray to the Lord to forgive you.

The Lord has no reason to forgive me.
Nothing happened in Tortuga!

Nothing happened!

You're not to leave your quarters
without my permission.

I wasn't sorry to hear you were dead. Your insane
attack on Panama cost a great deal of money

and the lives of many men - not to
mention an uproar in London - for nothing!

Not for nothing. We failed at Panama but
on the way back we were lucky.

Your share is bigger than it's ever been.

It's incredible.

I'll need more men and ships.
I'm going to attack Panama again.

Maybe when these trinkets reach
London they'll see it my way.

You're talking like a madman.

You're out of your mind. Do you
want to make the same mistake again?

This time I won't fail.

I know Panama's weak point.
Look at this chart.

I'll land here. I need three British ships with
men and supplies for a thirty-day march.

With the aid of the British we can make
the journey inland in a month without trouble

We can gather cattle, horses,
and provisions along the way.

We'll gain the advantage of taking
Panama completely by surprise.

We are seamen, Morgan, not highwaymen.

Exactly the point. They won't
expect us to attack from land.

Their defences are weak landward. We'll have
taken the city before they get their guns in place.

I know it's a risk. As great
as any we've undertaken.

But the prize is worth it. It means striking
at the heart of the Spanish Empire,

and laying our hands on the treasures
of the richest city in the New World.

I'm a woman.

But I'm not afraid to follow Morgan
on this expedition if he wants me.

I'm not afraid of battle
or hardship or hunger.

I'm not afraid. But you
are craven cowards.

I'm ready to go with Captain Morgan.

Everybody knows that you want him.

All right. We'll follow you to Panama. I want
to see the Spanish guns blow you to bits.

At last I'll have the pleasure
of spitting on your corpse.

- Sir Thomas Modyford?
- Yes.

I'm Lord Bourne.

I bring you good news from London.
England and Spain are signing a treaty.

Peace at last!

Quite so.

Negotiations were underway
when I left London.

The treaty is probably already signed.

All hostilities with Spain are suspended, and
so is our undesirable alliance with the pirates.

My orders are to withdraw
all aid to Morgan.

Yes. But if it hadn't been for the pirates
we would have been routed long ago.

I promised Captain Morgan
reinforcements to attack Panama.

Out of the question. We must stop him.

Stop him? You might just as
well try to stop a hurricane.

If he attacks Panama he does it without our support.
From today on we wash our hands of Captain Morgan.

I see.

I must leave Captain Morgan to his fate.

We've been waiting two weeks and
there's still no sign of the English.

I'm taking my men back to Tortuga.

We'll wait another week.

Just until tomorrow. That's all.

Fire! Fire!

It must be Morgan!

He's burned your ships.

Now you'll have to go with him.

You devil. You're the one who
insisted we come here.

Get rid of her!

Get off me!

Get your hands off me!

Without ships you can't get back to
Tortuga. Follow me or rot on this beach.

Or you could kill me.

I have some news that concerns you.
You will leave for Spain within a week.

In Madrid you will marry. The man I have chosen is
of high estate and his family is one of Europe's finest.

You will forget the past and honour
your duties as a wife and mother.

I don't wish to disobey you
but I'm not leaving Panama.

And I have no intention
of forgetting the past.

You will forget it because
I order you to.

You have nothing to say in the matter.
My decision was made for your own good.

I will not discuss it further.

Someday you will thank
me for what I am doing.

And you will see that I am right.

This looks like a good
place to get a meal.

Chicken for dinner!

Pirates!

Pirates....pirates...

You! Come here!

- Pirates! Pirates!
- Where?

Over there!

They came out of nowhere!
Hundreds of them!

Hundreds!

Tell me something. Have
you been drinking?

Not this morning, no, just a little
last night at my sister's wedding.

I tell you I saw them with my own eyes!

Pirates! Pirates! Pirates!

Get out of here!

What do you make of
that? Over there.

- Pirates... Pirates!
- Pirates!

Sound the alarm!

Get every available man on that wall!

Your servant.

Your excellency, pirates are
attacking the rear gates.

Get all the cannon from the sea wall and put
them where they can bear on the buccaneers.

Come on, get inside! Hurry!

Clear out!

Inez, you don't have a moment to lose.
The city is falling but there is a ship waiting.

Well? Don't just sit there.

Hurry and I'll join you
as soon as possible.

Fire!

Mama! Mama!

Come on!

Captain Morgan!

Men of Panama! Lay down your arms!
By order of the governor!

We've taken the city!

You've done it. The day is yours.

The city is in your hands. The governor
is ready to discuss terms immediately.

We ask you to do so and avoid more bloodshed.

- Where is he?
- Waiting at the palace.

- And Dona Inez?
- She has embarked for Spain.

Come here! Don't you like pirates?

Your dream has come true, Morgan.
This victory will make you famous.

Did you find this?

Which one of you found this?

Did you find this?

Tell me which one of you
found this medallion!

A thousand ducats to the one
who found this medallion!

Did you find it?

You can have all the money you want.
Just tell me where you found it.

I took it off a woman.
She was lying in the street.

She seemed dead.

Show me where.

Inez!

Inez.

It's you. I was so afraid for you.

No. Don't be afraid. It's all over now.

I'll never leave you again.

I'm not afraid anymore.
