Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,250
Mikhail Afanasievich Bulgakov.
2
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,750
The Master and Margarita.
3
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,500
PART FOUR.
4
00:02:31,500 --> 00:02:33,780
Shhhh...
5
00:02:35,100 --> 00:02:36,620
May I sit down?
6
00:02:45,860 --> 00:02:48,660
How did you get here?
7
00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:51,020
Aren't the balcony grilles locked?
8
00:02:51,900 --> 00:02:54,985
A month ago I stole a bunch of keys...
9
00:02:55,020 --> 00:02:58,260
...and so I occasionally call on a neighbor.
10
00:02:58,420 --> 00:03:01,580
If you can get to the balcony,
you can escape. Or is it too high?
11
00:03:01,980 --> 00:03:06,140
No, I cannot escape from here,
not because it's too high...
12
00:03:06,175 --> 00:03:08,620
...but because I have nowhere to escape to.
13
00:03:12,540 --> 00:03:15,340
Here we sit
14
00:03:16,140 --> 00:03:17,540
We sit...
15
00:03:52,740 --> 00:03:56,380
Here, citizens, you and I have just
beheld a case of so-called...
16
00:03:56,415 --> 00:03:58,465
...mass hypnosis.
17
00:03:58,500 --> 00:04:02,360
A purely scientific experiment, proving...
18
00:04:02,395 --> 00:04:06,220
...that there are no miracles in magic.
19
00:04:07,340 --> 00:04:09,625
Let us ask Maestro Woland,
20
00:04:09,660 --> 00:04:11,185
...to expose this experiment for us.
21
00:04:11,220 --> 00:04:15,340
Presently, citizens, you will see these
supposed banknotes...
22
00:04:15,375 --> 00:04:18,580
...disappear as suddenly as they appeared.
23
00:04:29,260 --> 00:04:34,980
And this is a case of so-called lying!
24
00:04:37,620 --> 00:04:39,300
The notes, citizens...
25
00:04:40,100 --> 00:04:42,340
...are genuine!
26
00:04:45,940 --> 00:04:49,105
This one, incidentally, annoys me...
27
00:04:49,140 --> 00:04:52,900
Keeps poking his nose where nobody's
asked him...
28
00:04:52,935 --> 00:04:57,500
...spoils the s�ance with false observations!
29
00:04:59,140 --> 00:05:01,180
What're we going to do with him?
30
00:05:01,420 --> 00:05:03,660
Tear his head off!
31
00:05:11,380 --> 00:05:13,460
Tear his head off?
32
00:05:15,020 --> 00:05:17,420
There's an idea!
33
00:05:19,220 --> 00:05:20,380
Behemoth!
34
00:05:20,460 --> 00:05:21,740
Go to it!
35
00:05:22,140 --> 00:05:23,140
- Eins...
36
00:05:23,180 --> 00:05:24,167
- Zwei...
37
00:05:24,202 --> 00:05:25,155
- Drei!
38
00:05:43,180 --> 00:05:44,660
A doctor!
39
00:05:44,740 --> 00:05:47,025
Don't torture him!
40
00:05:47,060 --> 00:05:49,540
For God's sake, don't torture him!
41
00:05:51,140 --> 00:05:53,340
So, what then, citizens...
42
00:05:54,100 --> 00:05:56,260
...shall we forgive him?
43
00:05:57,020 --> 00:05:58,340
Forgive him, forgive him!
44
00:06:00,620 --> 00:06:02,860
What are your orders, Messire?
45
00:06:03,940 --> 00:06:05,940
Well, now...
46
00:06:07,660 --> 00:06:12,940
they're people like any other people...
47
00:06:14,140 --> 00:06:15,700
They love money...
48
00:06:16,620 --> 00:06:18,860
...but that has always been so!
49
00:06:21,660 --> 00:06:24,940
...they're light-minded
well, what of it...
50
00:06:27,180 --> 00:06:31,420
...mercy sometimes knocks at their hearts...
51
00:06:32,340 --> 00:06:34,860
...ordinary people...
52
00:06:36,740 --> 00:06:38,780
...In general...
53
00:06:39,060 --> 00:06:42,940
...reminiscent of the former ones...
54
00:06:44,780 --> 00:06:47,340
...only the housing problem...
55
00:06:47,740 --> 00:06:49,700
...has corrupted them...
56
00:06:52,420 --> 00:06:53,980
...interesting...
57
00:06:55,340 --> 00:06:58,140
...they behave like they used to...
58
00:07:02,860 --> 00:07:05,100
Put the head on.
59
00:07:26,980 --> 00:07:28,660
Alive?
60
00:07:33,020 --> 00:07:35,140
Buzz off!
61
00:07:36,620 --> 00:07:39,540
It's more fun without you!
62
00:07:51,820 --> 00:07:53,380
Tell me please...
63
00:07:53,740 --> 00:07:55,980
...you're not violent, I hope?
64
00:07:56,180 --> 00:08:00,260
Because, you know, I cannot stand
noise, turmoil, force...
65
00:08:00,295 --> 00:08:02,340
...or other things like that...
66
00:08:03,340 --> 00:08:06,940
Yesterday in a restaurant
I socked one type in the mug!
67
00:08:08,020 --> 00:08:09,380
Your grounds?
68
00:08:11,660 --> 00:08:14,100
No grounds, I must confess...
69
00:08:14,340 --> 00:08:16,020
Outrageous!
70
00:08:17,780 --> 00:08:19,980
And besides, what a way to express yourself...
71
00:08:20,220 --> 00:08:21,780
...socked in the mug!
72
00:08:22,940 --> 00:08:25,580
It is not known precisely whether
a man has...
73
00:08:25,615 --> 00:08:26,980
...a mug or a face.
74
00:08:29,980 --> 00:08:31,785
And, after all...
75
00:08:31,820 --> 00:08:34,180
...it may well be a face.
76
00:08:35,420 --> 00:08:38,980
No, you should give that up, and for good.
77
00:08:40,660 --> 00:08:42,260
Your profession?
78
00:08:44,020 --> 00:08:45,220
Poet!
79
00:08:47,980 --> 00:08:50,860
Ah, just my luck!
80
00:08:53,500 --> 00:08:55,740
And what is your name?
81
00:08:56,860 --> 00:08:57,980
Homeless.
82
00:09:04,260 --> 00:09:05,820
What, you mean you dislike my poetry?
83
00:09:05,900 --> 00:09:07,260
I dislike it terribly...
84
00:09:07,295 --> 00:09:08,585
And what have you read?
85
00:09:08,620 --> 00:09:11,620
I've never read any of your poetry!
86
00:09:11,655 --> 00:09:13,397
Then how can you say that?
87
00:09:13,432 --> 00:09:15,140
As if I haven't read others?
88
00:09:16,820 --> 00:09:20,020
...Or else
maybe there's some miracle...
89
00:09:20,660 --> 00:09:21,500
Very well...
90
00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:24,500
...I'm ready to take it on faith.
91
00:09:28,620 --> 00:09:30,580
...Is your poetry good... or not?
92
00:09:30,615 --> 00:09:31,780
...You tell me yourself.
93
00:09:42,060 --> 00:09:43,700
Monstrous...
94
00:09:45,980 --> 00:09:47,980
Don't write any more...
95
00:09:52,780 --> 00:09:54,740
I promise!
96
00:10:01,020 --> 00:10:02,140
...and I swear...
97
00:10:22,740 --> 00:10:27,060
All righty, now that we've kicked
that nuisance out...
98
00:10:28,300 --> 00:10:35,140
...let's open a ladies' shop!
99
00:10:42,060 --> 00:10:44,540
Latest fashion in dresses for the ladies...
100
00:10:46,020 --> 00:10:47,140
Shoes...
101
00:10:48,660 --> 00:10:50,020
Hats...
102
00:10:50,940 --> 00:10:53,300

103
00:10:58,460 --> 00:11:01,780

104
00:11:02,980 --> 00:11:04,300

106
00:11:07,580 --> 00:11:08,740
Berlin...
107
00:11:09,500 --> 00:11:10,940

...cocktail dresses...

00:11:28,180 --> 00:11:31,220
Please take it Madame...
114
00:11:33,100 --> 00:11:35,980
Welcome to the store ladies!

...for Parisian models and Parisian shoes!
119
00:11:46,380 --> 00:11:49,860
The same held, for the handbags and perfumes...
120
00:11:49,895 --> 00:11:50,780
Welcome!
121
00:11:56,100 --> 00:12:00,340

Welcome!

00:12:34,740 --> 00:12:37,340
Welcome to the store... Madame!
126
00:12:54,380 --> 00:12:56,780
Maestro!
127
00:12:57,180 --> 00:12:59,060
...Strauss waltz!
128
00:12:59,740 --> 00:13:00,940
...in B flat major
129
00:13:01,500 --> 00:13:03,940
"Voices of Spring"
130
00:13:51,980 --> 00:13:55,660
...to the right please
to the left please...
131
00:14:17,980 --> 00:14:19,780
She is ill and sent me...
132
00:14:19,900 --> 00:14:21,400
Can you prove it?
133
00:14:21,435 --> 00:14:21,540
Passport!
134
00:14:22,700 --> 00:14:24,220
Thank you comrade!
135
00:14:26,860 --> 00:14:30,460
Completely gratis!
136
00:14:53,420 --> 00:14:55,580
So, how did you wind up here?
137
00:14:57,780 --> 00:15:00,860
On account of Pontius Pilate!
138
00:15:02,220 --> 00:15:03,420
What?
139
00:15:07,580 --> 00:15:09,980
A staggering coincidence!
140
00:15:18,380 --> 00:15:20,700
I beg you...
141
00:15:21,540 --> 00:15:23,380
Tell me about it, I beg you!
142
00:15:27,380 --> 00:15:29,580
Good bye... good bye...
143
00:15:30,980 --> 00:15:32,145
That's all...
144
00:15:32,180 --> 00:15:37,460
to the lateness of the hour,
the shop would close!
145
00:15:41,780 --> 00:15:44,260
All the same it is desirable, citizen artiste...
146
00:15:44,620 --> 00:15:49,860
...that you expose the technique of your
tricks to the spectators without delay
147
00:15:50,260 --> 00:15:53,320
...especially the trick with the paper money.
148
00:15:53,355 --> 00:15:56,380
The mass of spectators demands an explanation!
149
00:16:00,340 --> 00:16:03,220
The mass of spectators, doesn't seem
to be saying anything
150
00:16:04,860 --> 00:16:07,480
But, in consideration of your most esteemed desire...
151
00:16:07,515 --> 00:16:10,100
...of the chairman of the Acoustics Commission...
152
00:16:10,135 --> 00:16:12,100
Arkady Apollonovich Sempleyarov...
153
00:16:12,540 --> 00:16:15,620
...so be it - I will perform an exposure.
154
00:16:17,580 --> 00:16:21,580
Allow me to ask, where were you last evening at seven?
155
00:16:26,780 --> 00:16:32,900
Last evening Arkady Apollonovich
was at a meeting of the Acoustics Commission...
156
00:16:32,935 --> 00:16:36,220
...but I don't understand what that
has got to do with magic.
157
00:16:36,380 --> 00:16:39,740
Ouee, Madame!
Naturally you don't understand...
158
00:16:39,775 --> 00:16:43,505
After driving off to the said meeting...
159
00:16:43,540 --> 00:16:47,020
...which incidentally was not even scheduled for last night!
160
00:16:47,055 --> 00:16:49,917
...Arkady Apollonovich went to Yelokhovskaya Street...
161
00:16:49,952 --> 00:16:52,780
to visit an actress from the regional itinerant theatre...
162
00:16:52,815 --> 00:16:55,225
...Militsa Andreevna Pokobatko!
163
00:16:55,260 --> 00:16:58,660
...with whom he spent some four hours.
164
00:17:00,700 --> 00:17:02,300
But...
165
00:17:14,980 --> 00:17:16,760
It's all clear...
166
00:17:16,795 --> 00:17:18,505
...Now I see...
167
00:17:18,540 --> 00:17:22,620
...why that giftless thing got the role of Louisa!
168
00:17:26,700 --> 00:17:29,980
Here, honorable citizens, is
a typical case...
169
00:17:30,100 --> 00:17:31,260
...of the exposure!
170
00:17:31,780 --> 00:17:34,980
...Arkady Apollonovich so importunately insisted on!
171
00:17:35,620 --> 00:17:38,740
The s�ance is over!
172
00:17:38,775 --> 00:17:39,740
Maestro!
173
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:42,460
Hack out a march!
174
00:18:11,140 --> 00:18:14,140
'And so, I wound up here!
175
00:18:16,340 --> 00:18:18,100
Unlucky poet!
176
00:18:19,380 --> 00:18:23,940
You oughtn't to have behaved so casually
and even impertinently with him.
177
00:18:23,975 --> 00:18:25,580
...So you've paid for it...
178
00:18:27,900 --> 00:18:32,700
And you must still say thank you that
you got off comparatively cheaply.
179
00:18:32,735 --> 00:18:35,340
But who is he, finally?
180
00:18:40,100 --> 00:18:41,980
Yesterday at the Patriarch's Ponds...
181
00:18:42,740 --> 00:18:45,380
...you met Satan!
182
00:19:16,660 --> 00:19:17,910
My God!
183
00:19:27,940 --> 00:19:29,460
Oh my God, My God...
184
00:19:33,940 --> 00:19:35,580
Come over!... it's interesting...
185
00:19:43,380 --> 00:19:47,580
So I thought, so I thought...
186
00:19:50,860 --> 00:19:52,780
I'll call...
187
00:19:53,140 --> 00:19:54,390
...to NKVD!
188
00:20:08,220 --> 00:20:10,540
Don't call anywhere, Rimsky...
189
00:20:10,575 --> 00:20:12,180
...it'll be bad...
190
00:21:41,580 --> 00:21:43,980
God...
191
00:21:44,460 --> 00:21:48,700
...you frightened me...
192
00:21:52,340 --> 00:21:55,620
Excuse me, please,
I thought you had already left.
193
00:21:56,980 --> 00:22:00,100
Why didn't you call?
194
00:22:01,620 --> 00:22:03,945
What are all these shenanigans about Yalta?
195
00:22:03,980 --> 00:22:07,660
Well, it's as I was saying,
He was found in the tavern in Pushkino.
196
00:22:08,820 --> 00:22:10,700
He got a telegrapher drunk
in Pushkino...
197
00:22:11,220 --> 00:22:12,820
...and the two of them started acting up...
198
00:22:13,460 --> 00:22:16,060
...sending telegrams marked "Yalta",
among other things
199
00:22:19,620 --> 00:22:21,105
Then where is he now?
200
00:22:21,140 --> 00:22:22,740
Well, where else could he be?
201
00:22:22,775 --> 00:22:24,340
In a sobering-up cell, naturally.
202
00:22:26,220 --> 00:22:28,105
And what they were doing...
203
00:22:28,140 --> 00:22:30,340
...dancing in the arms of the telegrapher...
204
00:22:30,375 --> 00:22:31,580
...in front of the post office...
205
00:22:31,980 --> 00:22:34,020
...chasing after some female citizens...
206
00:22:35,020 --> 00:22:37,580
...fought with the barman in the Yalta itself
207
00:22:37,700 --> 00:22:40,740
...Scattering green onions all over
the floor of the same Yalta
208
00:22:41,380 --> 00:22:44,580
Smashing eight bottles of dry white Ai-Danil.
209
00:22:44,860 --> 00:22:46,820
...Broke the meter in a taxi cab...
210
00:22:48,060 --> 00:22:52,420
He was so out of it, he resisted those...
211
00:22:53,140 --> 00:22:57,100
...who came for him...
212
00:22:57,340 --> 00:22:59,220
In short, black horror!
213
00:23:02,900 --> 00:23:04,740
What's that on your face?
214
00:23:07,580 --> 00:23:10,180
The car skidded, I bumped
against the door-handle!
215
00:23:11,140 --> 00:23:12,640
You're lying!
216
00:23:17,860 --> 00:23:20,060
You cast no shadow!
217
00:23:20,500 --> 00:23:24,700
He's guessed, damn him!
218
00:23:25,180 --> 00:23:27,940
Always was clever...
219
00:23:34,020 --> 00:23:36,380
He's here!
220
00:23:48,260 --> 00:23:49,460
He's here!
221
00:23:59,180 --> 00:24:01,620
Come here...
222
00:24:01,655 --> 00:24:04,060
Help me!
223
00:24:09,140 --> 00:24:10,060
Help me!
224
00:24:11,460 --> 00:24:13,140
No...
225
00:24:13,175 --> 00:24:14,820
I won't!
226
00:24:20,100 --> 00:24:21,900
Come to me!
227
00:24:25,700 --> 00:24:29,260
I don't want to!
228
00:25:15,620 --> 00:25:17,740
What did you find out?
229
00:25:18,020 --> 00:25:19,300
Practically nothing!
230
00:25:19,860 --> 00:25:22,820
One of them said that the man was short...
231
00:25:23,260 --> 00:25:25,820
...had gold teeth,
and limped on his right leg.
232
00:25:26,380 --> 00:25:30,700
The other that the man
was enormously tall, had platinum crowns...
233
00:25:31,340 --> 00:25:33,220
...and limped on his left leg...
234
00:25:34,420 --> 00:25:35,985
And this citizen insists...
235
00:25:36,020 --> 00:25:38,820
...that the man had no distinguishing marks.
236
00:25:40,260 --> 00:25:41,700
Anything else?
237
00:25:44,260 --> 00:25:45,465
Wanted magician...
238
00:25:45,500 --> 00:25:47,700
...did not registered anywhere on arrival...
239
00:25:47,735 --> 00:25:49,900
...had not shown anyone his passport...
240
00:25:49,935 --> 00:25:51,825
...or any other papers...
241
00:25:51,860 --> 00:25:53,545
...contracts, or agreements...
242
00:25:53,580 --> 00:25:55,220
...and no one had heard anything about him!
243
00:26:00,540 --> 00:26:02,940
So no one...
244
00:26:09,020 --> 00:26:10,620
Don't leave a stone unturned...
245
00:26:12,060 --> 00:26:13,980
...collect evidence...
246
00:26:15,260 --> 00:26:18,140
...pick up anyone
even remotely suspicious...
247
00:26:19,340 --> 00:26:23,140
...investigation in this political matter
is classified...
248
00:26:23,175 --> 00:26:24,740
...direct all resources...
249
00:26:25,140 --> 00:26:28,420
Investigation of these hypnotic tricks...
250
00:26:28,455 --> 00:26:31,757
performed by these bold criminals,
251
00:26:31,792 --> 00:26:35,060
...should be tied up in two days!
252
00:26:35,095 --> 00:26:37,020
Go to it!
253
00:26:37,580 --> 00:26:38,830
As ordered!
254
00:26:42,220 --> 00:26:45,900
Oh... and use this Baron...
255
00:26:45,935 --> 00:26:47,337
...Meigel!
256
00:26:47,372 --> 00:26:48,740
As ordered!
257
00:26:55,620 --> 00:26:58,505
As soon as you started describing him,
I began to realize...
258
00:26:58,540 --> 00:27:01,140
...who it was that you had the pleasure
of talking with yesterday!
259
00:27:02,540 --> 00:27:05,380
One can't fail to recognize him, my friend!
260
00:27:06,060 --> 00:27:09,100
Though you... again I must apologize,
but I'm not mistaken...
261
00:27:09,135 --> 00:27:10,740
...you are not an educated man?
262
00:27:13,340 --> 00:27:15,220
I went to sanatorium a lot...
263
00:27:15,255 --> 00:27:16,380
...in Yalta!
264
00:27:17,300 --> 00:27:19,540
Well, so, so... hardly surprising...
265
00:27:19,660 --> 00:27:21,900
But Berlioz, astounds me...
266
00:27:22,300 --> 00:27:25,740
...Though I must say in his defense...
267
00:27:26,020 --> 00:27:29,540
that Woland is, capable of pulling the wool
over the eyes of an even shrewder man...
268
00:27:29,575 --> 00:27:30,460
What?!
269
00:27:36,220 --> 00:27:37,960
I see...
270
00:27:37,995 --> 00:27:39,700
...I see.
271
00:27:40,140 --> 00:27:44,620
He had the letter "W" on his visiting card.
272
00:27:46,860 --> 00:27:48,180
Ai-yai-yai, what a thing!
273
00:27:48,580 --> 00:27:52,020
So that means he might actually
have been at Pontius Pilate's...
274
00:27:52,500 --> 00:27:55,860
He was already born then!
275
00:27:57,780 --> 00:28:00,020
And they call me a madman!
276
00:28:03,500 --> 00:28:05,420
Your interlocutor was at Pilate's...
277
00:28:06,660 --> 00:28:08,100
...and had breakfast with Kant...
278
00:28:10,460 --> 00:28:11,980
...and now he's visiting Moscow.
279
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:15,020
But he'll be up to devil knows what here!
280
00:28:15,420 --> 00:28:17,500
We ought to catch him somehow!
281
00:28:17,535 --> 00:28:19,380
You've already tried...
282
00:28:20,340 --> 00:28:22,820
I don't advise others to try either!
283
00:28:24,580 --> 00:28:28,220
And as for being up to something,
rest assured, he will be.
284
00:28:29,060 --> 00:28:32,540
Ah, ah! But how annoying that it was
you who met him and not I...
285
00:28:35,620 --> 00:28:38,020
Though it's all burned up...
286
00:28:38,180 --> 00:28:40,580
...for that meeting I'd give back...
287
00:28:40,780 --> 00:28:43,500
...all of the keys, for I have nothing else to give.
288
00:28:44,460 --> 00:28:46,340
I'm destitute.
289
00:28:47,620 --> 00:28:50,380
But what do you need him for?
290
00:28:53,540 --> 00:28:55,780
You see, it's such a strange story...
291
00:28:57,420 --> 00:28:59,820
...I'm sitting here for the same reason you are...
292
00:29:04,820 --> 00:29:07,180
...on account of Pontius Pilate.
293
00:29:10,740 --> 00:29:11,820
The thing is that...
294
00:29:13,620 --> 00:29:15,660
...a year ago I wrote...
295
00:29:16,380 --> 00:29:18,780
...a novel about Pontius Pilate.
296
00:29:21,460 --> 00:29:24,300
You're a writer?
297
00:29:28,500 --> 00:29:32,180
I am a master!
298
00:29:58,020 --> 00:30:01,060
She sewed it for me with her own hands...
299
00:30:07,620 --> 00:30:09,220
And what is your name?
300
00:30:14,140 --> 00:30:16,180
I no longer have a name...
301
00:30:17,300 --> 00:30:20,220
I renounced it, as I generally did
everything in life...
302
00:30:21,940 --> 00:30:25,340
Then at least tell me about the novel...
303
00:30:28,620 --> 00:30:30,620
If you please, sir...
304
00:30:33,620 --> 00:30:37,220
My life, it must be said, has taken a not
very ordinary course...
305
00:30:38,700 --> 00:30:41,620
...I'm a historian by education...
306
00:30:43,300 --> 00:30:47,740
...I had worked until two years ago at one
of the Moscow museums...
307
00:30:49,100 --> 00:30:51,380
...besides that, I had also done translations.
308
00:30:51,415 --> 00:30:53,060
From what language?
309
00:30:53,740 --> 00:30:56,065
I know five languages besides Russian...
310
00:30:56,100 --> 00:31:00,060
...English, French, German, Latin and Greek...
311
00:31:00,095 --> 00:31:02,780
Well, I can also read Italian a little.
312
00:31:02,860 --> 00:31:03,945
Oh, my!
313
00:31:03,980 --> 00:31:06,620
...I was alone in Moscow...
314
00:31:06,655 --> 00:31:09,437
...I had no acquaintances...
315
00:31:09,472 --> 00:31:12,466
...And, just imagine, one day...
316
00:31:12,501 --> 00:31:15,460
...I won a hundred thousand rubles.
317
00:31:17,180 --> 00:31:19,500
I got the ticket at the museum...
318
00:31:21,900 --> 00:31:24,380
Having won a hundred thousand rubles...
319
00:31:24,460 --> 00:31:25,860
...here's what I did:
320
00:31:25,980 --> 00:31:27,265
...I bought books...
321
00:31:27,300 --> 00:31:29,780
...I gave up my room on Myasnitskaya...
322
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:31,980
Ohh, that accursed hole!
323
00:31:33,340 --> 00:31:35,260
...and rented from a builder...
324
00:31:35,740 --> 00:31:37,060
...two rooms...
325
00:31:37,660 --> 00:31:42,460
...in the basement of a little house
in the garden.
326
00:31:43,860 --> 00:31:45,820
...I left my work at the museum...
327
00:31:47,140 --> 00:31:52,660
...and began writing a novel about Pontius Pilate.
328
00:31:57,140 --> 00:31:58,740
And then...
329
00:31:59,940 --> 00:32:02,420
...one day...
330
00:32:03,900 --> 00:32:07,780
...last spring, something happened far more important...
331
00:32:07,815 --> 00:32:11,380
...than winning hundred thousand rubles.
332
00:33:13,620 --> 00:33:16,300
Do you like my flowers?
333
00:33:19,420 --> 00:33:20,940
No!
334
00:33:23,820 --> 00:33:26,860
You generally don't like flowers?
335
00:33:28,460 --> 00:33:30,260
No, I like flowers...
336
00:33:31,540 --> 00:33:33,500
...but not this kind!
337
00:33:33,900 --> 00:33:35,980
Which, then?
338
00:33:37,620 --> 00:33:39,820
I like roses...
339
00:34:24,260 --> 00:34:25,580
Go on...
340
00:34:25,780 --> 00:34:28,060
...and please don't leave anything out!
341
00:34:28,095 --> 00:34:28,900
Go on?
342
00:34:30,060 --> 00:34:33,260
Why, you can guess for yourself how it went on...
343
00:34:38,100 --> 00:34:40,860
Love leaped out in front of us...
344
00:34:41,780 --> 00:34:44,860
...like a murderer in an alley
leaping out of nowhere,
345
00:34:46,700 --> 00:34:49,260
...and struck us both at once.
346
00:34:53,740 --> 00:34:56,220
As lightning strikes.
347
00:34:56,660 --> 00:34:59,580
...as the bandit's knife strikes!
348
00:35:12,220 --> 00:35:17,340
...I went out that day with yellow flowers
so that you would find me at last...
349
00:35:19,620 --> 00:35:23,820
...if it hadn't happened, I would have poisoned myself!
350
00:35:33,020 --> 00:35:37,500
...because my life was empty...
351
00:35:45,300 --> 00:35:47,700
No one knew of our liaison...
352
00:35:49,340 --> 00:35:51,500
Her husband didn't know...
353
00:35:51,860 --> 00:35:54,180
...her acquaintances didn't know.
354
00:35:55,860 --> 00:35:58,260
But who is she?
355
00:36:06,100 --> 00:36:09,980
She used to come to me every day...
356
00:36:10,380 --> 00:36:13,700
...but I would begin waiting for her in the morning.
357
00:36:25,900 --> 00:36:34,460
Scissors, knives sharpened...
axes, scythes sharpened...
358
00:38:41,540 --> 00:38:43,300
You are a Master!
359
00:38:57,060 --> 00:39:00,540
She, by the way, insisted afterwards...
360
00:39:03,180 --> 00:39:09,780
that we had, loved each other for a long time,
never having seen each other,
361
00:39:11,100 --> 00:39:18,940
and that she was living with a different man...
as I was, too, then... with that, what's her...
362
00:39:20,900 --> 00:39:22,505
You were married?
363
00:39:22,540 --> 00:39:27,220
With that... Varenka... Manechka...
364
00:39:27,500 --> 00:39:29,060
...striped dress
365
00:39:29,700 --> 00:39:31,020
...museum...
366
00:39:32,140 --> 00:39:35,860
Anyhow, I don't remember.
367
00:40:30,260 --> 00:40:33,380
I foretell you fame, Master.
368
00:40:34,660 --> 00:40:37,345
...only work faster...
369
00:40:37,380 --> 00:40:40,300
...I'm waiting for the already promised last words.
370
00:40:43,620 --> 00:40:50,580
..."the fifth procurator of Judea,
the equestrian Pontius Pilate"
371
00:40:52,980 --> 00:40:55,460
My whole life is in this novel...
372
00:40:56,420 --> 00:40:59,020
It was finished in the month of August...
373
00:41:00,500 --> 00:41:05,420
And finally the hour came when I had to leave
my secret refuge and go out into life.
374
00:41:07,780 --> 00:41:09,400
And I went out into life...
375
00:41:09,435 --> 00:41:11,020
holding my novel in my hands...
376
00:41:12,980 --> 00:41:15,260
...and then my life ended!
377
00:41:33,140 --> 00:41:34,980
Tell me please...
378
00:41:37,740 --> 00:41:39,660
...who are you?
379
00:41:39,940 --> 00:41:41,620
I what sense?
380
00:41:46,220 --> 00:41:50,860
who had given you the idea
of writing a novel...
381
00:41:50,895 --> 00:41:53,900
...on such a strange theme?
382
00:41:56,140 --> 00:41:58,380
Will you publish the novel?
383
00:42:01,980 --> 00:42:03,905
You know...
384
00:42:03,940 --> 00:42:08,060
I cannot decide the question on my own...
385
00:42:09,660 --> 00:42:13,500
.. other members of the editorial board
have to acquaint themselves with your work
386
00:42:13,535 --> 00:42:16,900
...namely, the critics Latunsky...
387
00:42:18,260 --> 00:42:19,460
...Ariman...
388
00:42:21,940 --> 00:42:26,745
...and the writer Mstislav Lavrovich
389
00:42:26,780 --> 00:42:32,900
...I was told that the publisher was provided
with material for two years ahead...
390
00:42:32,935 --> 00:42:36,700
...and therefore the question
of printing your novel...
391
00:42:39,460 --> 00:42:42,580
...did not arise.
392
00:42:50,660 --> 00:42:54,900
Good bye!
393
00:42:57,020 --> 00:42:59,940
What do I remember after that?
394
00:43:07,940 --> 00:43:11,860
Yes, red petals strewn across the title page...
395
00:43:13,900 --> 00:43:16,140
and also the eyes of my friend...
396
00:43:16,175 --> 00:43:19,977
Yes, those eyes I remember.
397
00:43:20,012 --> 00:43:23,096
No... for pushing me to fight...
398
00:43:23,131 --> 00:43:25,835
I don't blame her... not at all!
399
00:43:25,870 --> 00:43:28,505
But why did I... why did I go
400
00:43:28,540 --> 00:43:32,380
...to another publisher so they would
publish an excerpt from the novel...
401
00:44:07,340 --> 00:44:10,660
"Enemy under the publisher's wing"
402
00:44:11,460 --> 00:44:14,620
...author ensured that the outrageous publisher
would protect him...
403
00:44:14,655 --> 00:44:17,780
...had attempted to foist into print an apology for Jesus Christ.
404
00:44:18,860 --> 00:44:20,380
...critic Ariman.
405
00:44:26,940 --> 00:44:29,785
...we must strike, and strike hard, at Pilatism...
406
00:44:29,820 --> 00:44:33,580
of this the icon-dauber who had ventured
to foist it into print!
407
00:44:33,940 --> 00:44:36,580
...Mstislav Lavrovich
408
00:44:37,940 --> 00:44:42,260
I assure you, the works of Ariman and Lavrovich...
409
00:44:42,295 --> 00:44:46,580
...could be counted as jokes compared with what...
410
00:44:46,615 --> 00:44:48,185
...critic Latunsky wrote.
411
00:44:48,220 --> 00:44:50,220
...Suffice it to say it was entitled...
412
00:44:51,940 --> 00:44:55,700
"A Militant Old Believer"
413
00:45:02,940 --> 00:45:04,980
I will poison Latunsky!...
414
00:45:07,780 --> 00:45:10,420
Joyless autumn days set in!
415
00:45:10,455 --> 00:45:13,060
...the novel was finished...
416
00:45:13,620 --> 00:45:15,620
I had nothing more to do!
417
00:45:16,020 --> 00:45:17,305
...I lived from one day to the next...
418
00:45:17,340 --> 00:45:19,980
...we sat on a rug in front of a fireplace...
419
00:45:20,900 --> 00:45:22,980
...looking into the fire...
420
00:45:25,420 --> 00:45:27,980
Besides,
421
00:45:28,460 --> 00:45:31,620
...we saw each other less than before...
422
00:45:34,060 --> 00:45:37,020
She was going for a walk...
423
00:45:39,380 --> 00:45:42,420
.. and I suddenly gained a new friend!
424
00:45:42,500 --> 00:45:44,760
...I'm not inclined to making friends...
425
00:45:44,795 --> 00:45:47,020
...I lack confidence... I'm suspicious...
426
00:45:47,700 --> 00:45:51,820
...I'd sooner get to like someone unexpected...
427
00:45:52,220 --> 00:45:53,860
...out of the blue...
428
00:45:54,780 --> 00:45:58,580
...devil knows why this one...
429
00:46:00,100 --> 00:46:04,460
...I remember him fondly,
that's how I liked him...
430
00:46:09,260 --> 00:46:11,225
Good day...
431
00:46:11,260 --> 00:46:13,740
I have a very funny name Mogarych
432
00:46:13,775 --> 00:46:15,065
Aloisy Mogarych...
433
00:46:15,100 --> 00:46:18,580
I'm a journalist and live near by
just like you... in a small apartment
434
00:46:18,615 --> 00:46:20,025
...a little too small...
435
00:46:20,060 --> 00:46:22,740
...I went to talk to the owner of this house...
436
00:46:22,775 --> 00:46:24,820
...and he told me that you live here...
437
00:46:25,180 --> 00:46:26,980
...I've read a part of your novel...
438
00:46:27,015 --> 00:46:29,825
...and I love literature...
439
00:46:29,860 --> 00:46:32,820
...please, let me read the rest of it...
440
00:46:33,660 --> 00:46:36,340
Your novel is incredible!
441
00:46:37,900 --> 00:46:42,300
I thank you, but the critics don't think so.
442
00:46:48,860 --> 00:46:50,740
I'll tell you if you want...
443
00:46:51,140 --> 00:46:54,020
...what the publisher said of your novel
444
00:47:10,300 --> 00:47:11,380
Get acquainted...
445
00:47:11,415 --> 00:47:12,300
Good day!
446
00:47:12,780 --> 00:47:15,945
I have a very funny name Mogarych
447
00:47:15,980 --> 00:47:17,985
Aloisy Mogarych... I'm a journalist...
448
00:47:18,020 --> 00:47:19,980
...I live near by
just like you... in a small apartment
449
00:47:20,015 --> 00:47:21,580
...a little too small...
450
00:47:21,980 --> 00:47:23,580
...so I don't invite you to my place...
451
00:47:24,060 --> 00:47:25,700
...but if you don't run me away...
452
00:47:25,735 --> 00:47:28,660
...I will visit you often.
453
00:47:38,180 --> 00:47:40,465
I don't like him very much...
454
00:47:40,500 --> 00:47:42,860
I haven't met a man yet
who within a space of a minute...
455
00:47:42,895 --> 00:47:45,020
...could explain the meaning of
a newspaper blurb...
456
00:47:45,540 --> 00:47:49,900
...and do it without any effort.
457
00:47:51,020 --> 00:47:52,780
He's a smart person!
458
00:47:54,220 --> 00:47:55,260
It's your business...
459
00:47:55,420 --> 00:47:58,940
I'm just telling you that he made
the worst impression on me!
