"We'll board like him with the box, on official business." ""Box"?" "We don't have a box..." "The box isn't the point." "We'll pretend we're here on business!" "Excuse me!" "Coming through!"

"And this is our son..." "Romek!" "Me, for example, I never go to the theatre." "We go out everywhere, sir." "To the theatre, cinema, shows..." "Recently, sir, the wife and I, we went to Mirów Market... and I had my camera with me - a Zorki 5... so I took some photos." "I don't like going to the cinema." "I particularly don't like Polish films." "They bore me." "Foreign movies..." "Them I go to." "Foreign movies are great." "You know?" "Somehow..." "Watching them, you know..." "I don't know..." "You can feel it." "Simply feel it." "You know... feel it." "And Polish films, sir, are just... boring..." "Nothing ever happens, sir." "Nothing." "It's true, sir." "Bad dialogue..." "Very bad dialogue in Polish films." "Sir..." "No action at all." "Nothing going on." "Why can't they be more like foreign films?" "You know, the thing is... take a foreign actor, for example..." "This foreign actor... his face, y'know, expresses something..." "It's difficult to explain, you know..." "It shows something..." "You know what I'm talking about." "But Polish actors, sir... they're kind of hollow, sir." "There's nothing there." "Take a Polish actor, sir..." "Let's say he's acting, yeah?" "I once saw this scene..." "Like, well, I don't know..." "He lights a cigarette, say." "He lights up a cigarette..." "And he looks like this:" "first to the right..." "Then to the left..." "Straight ahead..." "And... nothing." "It drags on and on..." "It simply drags on, sir, and there's no end to it." "I'm sitting in the cinema, sir..." "Do you understand?" "And I'm watching, sir..." "Sitting and watching... as usual..." "So I watch and watch... and I feel like walking out of the cinema, sir." "Sol do..." "And who pays for all this, sir?" "It's you, sir..." "You, madam..." "We pay..." "It's our money, sir..." " Society's." " All of society pays, sir..." "Good morning, ladies and gents." "May I introduce a new colleague... who will be sailing with us." "I think... he'll be in charge of:" "entertainment, culture and art." "I'm sure you will all get along just fine." "Good luck." "We hardly know each other... so why don't I start by saying something about myself." "I was born..." "I was born in Maikinia..." "In 1937..." "In July..." "In mid-July, that is..." "The second half of July, in fact..." "July the 17th, to be exact." "Right..." "So that's enough about me to begin with..." "Any questions?" "At every meeting it's always the same:" "Somebody has to start first." " Excuse me, may I?" " Of course." "I have a little question..." " By all means." " But I don't know if I may?" "Yes, you may, you may." "Absolutely, go ahead." "I'd like to swap beds." "I have this situation..." "You know, sir, I'm surprised you should bring up such a thing." "I only wanted to ask..." "Indeed..." "And with whom would you like to swap beds, sir?" "No one." "There's an empty bed beside mine..." "It's more comfortable, and wider..." " How do you know?" " I gave it a try." "Well, yes." "So..." "In this case, I can tell you that... you may in fact swap." "I mean... you cannot." "I think..." "Sol should sleep on the one they assigned me?" "No." "I mean..." "Which one are you sleeping on now?" "The one that's..." "The bed on the left when I enter the cabin." "OK." "Mine's on the right." "I'd like to introduce myself..." "The name's Mamon." "Engineer." "Ladies and gentlemen." "I'm not opposed to meetings, quite the opposite..." "I have nothing against them, but..." "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Mrs Mamon." "Nobody's making us sit here by force." "Quite the opposite..." "It's a genuine pleasure to be sitting here." "Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to say something about... poetry, which is precisely what I do for a living." "I'd like to say that poetry is a kind of..." "We can't understand a word!" "Come to the front and speak up." "Come to the front!" "Good morning." "I daresay, I'd like to say something about myself... and pique your interest in my... in my poetry, which in fact is like a... it's a vehicle which simply allows me to... to meet people, enter their lives, their cares and worries..." "Can you speak more clearly, maybe via that gentleman?" "And that is why I'd like to tell you how... how and under what conditions my poems come into the world." "It's a strange thing, in fact." "As strange... as I am." "I live in a world of my own." "And you all lack what I possess:" "sorrow and... and nostalgia." " Sorrow and nostalgia." " Sorrow and nostalgia!" " We can't hear you." " Sorrow and nostalgia!" "It's not easy for me to write... let's say, on an assigned subject." " What subject?" " An assigned subject." "It's difficult for him to write on an assigned subject." "And this is why... my subject... let's say, the subject I keep working on..." " Excuse me?" " Subject I keep working on." "The subject I keep working on is the beauty of nature..." " The nature I see." " Denatured ice tea?" "The nature I see." "Wild nature." "Vast and untamed." "Let's say with all its..." "most artistic aspects." "Now he's speaking..." "speaking about nature." "It's difficult for me to address you like this... at this juncture, since we've only just met... but already... from your faces, I can catch a glimpse..." " of your bygone days." " Days to come?" " Days bygone." " Our bygone days." " If I were a clairvoyant..." " If he was a clairvoyant." " I could tell you more." " He could tell us more." " But I'm not, so..." " But he's not, so..." "Never mind." "Right now I can tell, I can even point my finger..." "He can point his finger." "At the faces that..." "Faces that I could read easily." "He can point his finger at faces that he can... read easily." "You're welcome to carry on, if nobody minds." "I'd rather not..." "You'll find it all in my poems." "You'll find it all in his poems." "At every recital... whenever I do it among people I know..." "I choose one 'victim' who... is left completely devastated after a while." "They even might reach a kind of..." " Nervous ecstasy." " What ecstasy?" "Nervous ecstasy." " Where?" " At my recitals." "At my recitals." "It takes a lot out of me." "It takes a lot out of him." " I've got used to it." " He's got used to it." "I want to enter people's lives, I want to know their worries." "Somehow..." "I'd like to prevent... with my writing, let's say..." "I'd like to prevent... some cataclysm, let's say." "Or... or even avert some..." "moral decline." "He wants to avert moral decline." "But such matters are..." " Excuse me?" " I'm sorry." "Such matters are..." "and everyone would agree..." "Speaking for the people who are here with us..." "I would like us to initiate... for all the passengers on board... a get-together!" "As part of this soirée, I'd like to do something that's never been done before." "He'd like to do something that's never been done before." "With regard to the proper concept for enter..." "Er..." "Yeah, I had it right..." "With regard to the proper concept for entertainment programmes..." "I'd like to point out one flaw:" "they emphasise the intellectual and spiritual side... but omit the physical aspect." "I would propose the following sporting disciplines:" " May I speak?" " Swimming, wrestling, boxing..." "Anyone can criticise, but I get the feeling, sir... that no one likes criticism." "Therefore, given that... that we may be criticised, we must arrange things... so as not to have criticism, only acclaim and approval." "Approval of our future agendas and decisions." "I believe that what you're saying is very reasonable... and... simply necessary, I think." "Therefore, we should start building something, organising..." "I agree with the previous speaker." "Let's move from words to deeds." "I'd like to say a few words." "I nominate the gentleman running this meeting... as candidate to the Cruise Council." "Anyone against?" "No?" "Thank you." "Thank you." "In that case I would now like to nominate... the gentleman who put forward my candidacy... as another candidate for the Council." "Any objections?" "I note that the voting currently taking place... would be considered invalid by reputable institutions." "There are three voting methods:" "Firstly - by applauding." "Where applause denotes support." "Secondly - using balls." "Everyone entitled to vote receives black and red balls..." "I'm sorry, not black and red but black and white..." "We use black to vote 'for' - or the other way round... the black ball's 'against' and White's the opposite: 'for'." "There's also a third way - by raising hands... and that would be best here." "Great, but what method should determine the voting method?" "Gentlemen, let's not forget... that this is to be a complete surprise for the captain." "A total surprise to him." "The idea is that the captain shouldn't know about it." "I have an idea." "Listen, gentlemen." "I think... we should keep this entirely secret from the captain." "Entirely secret from the captain." "Right?" "Ah, and one more thing..." "The anniversary is on Tuesday." "So we have to decide here and now how we're going to celebrate it." "Shall we celebrate it in song... or maybe by reciting poems, gentlemen... or shall we simply have dancing and gymnastic displays?" "Right now, the most important thing is to decide... shall we do it this way, that way, or the other?" "From this discussion, I gather that we're working towards... a show, the likes of which has never been seen before." "Creating something completely new." "A new value may emerge out of a synthesis of various values... contradicting values." "If we are to achieve a new value... we must provoke a conflict between physicality... and spiritual values." "If nature - in other words, something physical... is primary, it is the thesis." "So, culture is its antithesis." "And a synthesis is what we wish to achieve." "If we do gymnastics... we represent nature, the 'thesis'." "If one of us sings, they represent culture, the 'antithesis'." "If we wish to create art to suit our standards... we must put more emphasis on physical effort... as well as the spiritual side, or 'antithesis'." "This is the new strategy of 'synthesis'." "This is the new concept of art." "Well?" "I must say I like it." "Yes." "I'm of the same opinion, because it's sad." " Yeah." " Formally, it's very interesting." "I like the tune." "I've never heard it before." "I like it that you're saying that you like it." "The beginning sounds promising, I think." "Especially this part:" ""When I have you by my side!"" "Yes." "This is good." "I picture it with ballet dancers." "Why would you want to add to it?" "Because the tune here has no specific... let's say... no specific lyrics." "The subject would be carried by movement and dancing." "You're talking about lyrics, but it's content you mean... and that's absent here." "If we have form without content... then there is no objective value, so it's pure formalism." "That's dangerous." "But formalism is also dangerous because... in the absence of content, various meanings can be interpreted... perhaps even ones which would be inappropriate here." "Or maybe the other way round..." "I don't know..." " Still, you liked it, eh?" " Me?" "Well, yes." "I have an analytical mind, sir." "I like tunes... which I have heard before." "It's as simple as that." "Because of... reminiscences." "How can I like a song if I hear it for the first time?" "But..." "In fact..." "What did you want to express?" " Well..." "My heart..." " Your heart with whose heart?" "Hers." " You're singing to a woman?" " Yes." "But we have to..." "It's a song for the captain." "Probably not the best choice for the captain, then..." " It's not really suitable." " So, now what do we do?" "Well, maybe we could throw in some dancing... to hold it all together." "That would make sense." "We can try." "Go ahead and sing." "Don't get anxious." "Don't be so childish." ""Nobody wants us..."" ""God, save the Tsar..."" "Excuse me." "Stop it." "We're not alone on this ship, so it's better, you know..." "We decided to do this for the captain." "Please do sing... but quietly." "Could you keep a lookout, sir?" "Yes, go ahead." "Good - "Fare you well, my sweetheart"." ""Fare you well, my sweetheart, Our country calls to me."" ""I'm going off to war, To fight alongside our boys."" ""And though I may well die, To save our fatherland,"" ""Don't you cry, my lovely, We'll meet again in heaven."" "Well, it's not bad, but..." "I'm not entirely sure." "In fact, I didn't like it at all... when you sang that they will meet again in heaven." "Couldn't you just come up with some other meeting place?" "Anywhere but heaven." ""And though I may well die..." Change it from there." "I've forgotten the lyrics." ""Don't you cry, my lovely..." What did you say..." " "And though I may well die," - "To save our fatherland..."" ""Don't you cry, my lovely, We'll meet again in THE GRAVE."" " In the grave, instead of heaven?" "!" " What kind of rhyme is that?" "In my opinion, anyone who..." "If anyone says they like it... it would mean..." "he doesn't love his mother." "I go to fashion shows, too, sir... but I'm not saying I do it because I love my mom." "Twaddle." "Youth as a subject is simpler, but it's not art." "In the old days, painters painted wizened old people." "And those are the most... some of the most beautiful paintings." "You know, sir, there is a saying..." "So, there's this saying, that youth must have its fling." "If that's really true... then what about old age, sir?" "Personally, I think that truth and beauty... are absolute values linked by dialectics." "You can have an awful truth and a beautiful lie." "Right?" "However, artistry is an independent value." "Right?" "It told the artistic truth about man, an old man... but also a young man, who will in turn grow old." "Right?" ""Nobody wants us..."" " I've something to tell you, sir." " Pardon?" "In the ladies' toilet somebody wrote: "The leader is stupid"." "What?" "In the ladies' toilet somebody wrote: "The leader is stupid"." " And you noticed it?" " Yes, sir." "Here's the evidence." "Very nice." "Hold on to it." "And thank you very much." "Keep your eyes and ears wide open at all times..." "In general, keep tabs on the situation... as a whole." "Aah, but what were you doing in a ladies' toilet?" " Me?" " Not me, obviously..." "When the men's room is busy, I go to whichever is free." " But what were you doing there?" " The usual." " But in a ladies' toilet?" " Same as I would in the men's." "With some things, you shouldn't go over the top." "Remember that." "You mean you've never been in a ladies' toilet?" "We must react, sir." "It's a matter of principle." "Let people know they can't get away with such things." "We could hold a trial." "You're an expert in these matters..." "I won't tell you what to do." "Right." "We have to investigate how it happened... who was or wasn't involved, and who is under suspicion." "We must conduct a normal, but small-scale investigation..." "Yes, and apply some immediate punishment." "Right, immediate punishment approved by a panel of judges... to serve as a deterrent to others... and to prevent any similar unruly acts in the future." " Maybe not the death penalty..." " Not for of fences like this." "That's what they all say, but WE know..." ""it was May, the lilac in bloom..."" ""The two of us, my girl and me..."" " I'm deeply moved..." " ["Then she left me..."]" "I'm thrilled..." "It's so rousing." "What about you?" "What about you?" " Hey!" " What?" "What do you think?" " About what?" " What do you mean "about what"?" " I don't understand." " About the song." "What song?" "Ah, I'm sorry, I wasn't listening..." "I was lost in thought." "But no need to sing it again." "What was it about?" "Could you sum it up briefly, and I'll think about it." "It's short." "It'd fit into three sentences." "He's alone, no girlfriend, and he's feeling down." "There's so much hopeless sorrow in this song... so much nameless longing... and forlorn hope..." "It touches my heart." "That song?" "Yes." "I don't know because, to be honest, I didn't hear the song." "So I wanted to say... a few words about it, because I think..." "Forgive me, gentlemen, but you're misinterpreting... what you have heard." "If someone here... at this moment, at present... in the specific circumstances we all live under... here and now..." "If someone starts singing that he's feeling down... that he has no goal in life... nowadays, when the world around us is full of goals..." "We see the number of goals increasing day by day." "People are working collectively... shoulder to shoulder, together... united in a common cause." "Then suddenly someone sings... that he's alone, has a hard time adapting, doesn't have anyone... and longs for something barely definable..." "Since we all know that we have very clear goals... definite aspirations, and we long for something clearly defined." "If someone sings like that, he isn't being serious." "That's the problem." "Don't interrupt me!" "He can't be singing seriously." "You're misinterpreting the song." "He's playful, ironic and humorous... with the subject of his song." "Therefore I affirm that this is not a sad song... nor is it pessimistic or, as you claim, touching." "I wouldn't say it was tearful." "It's an optimistic, cheerful song with humorous overtones." "We need such cheerful and optimistic-sounding songs." "Sometimes, we even need humorous and ironic songs." "That's how I'd interpret it." "How could such a song bring tears to his eyes?" "I move that we transfer the singer to the gymnastic section." "Firstly - he won't be alone." "He'll be with the collective." "Secondly - he'll learn to be more optimistic in life... even more than he is already." "And thirdly, most importantly - he will stop singing." "Dutch artists painted wizened old people." "They didn't hide their models' ugliness, but showed their beauty... because they remained detached from the material." "In our human pyramid, we are both the material and the artists." "So if someone is physically imperfect, he wouldn't know... where his ugliness begins or where it ends." "He wouldn't be able to ensure... an appropriate degree of detachment from himself." "And this is why I think..." "I'm personally unable to further take part in this gymnastic show." "I lack the detachment required." "Why?" "I cannot be the artist and the material at the same time." "I feel I have the right to choose." "Of course you have..." "You can go first..." " It was you, sir." " Yes." "Your turn." "You, sir." "Not me." "Go ahead." "That was me." "I beg your pardon?" "If it wasn't you, it must have been me." "No way." "You again." "Step right up, sir..." "We're happy to have you here." "Question one" " Can you hear me?" " Me?" " Yes, you." " I can hear you." "Next question." "Can you name a city by the Vistula River?" "I can add that it's named after a Polish king." " What city do you mean?" " But I'm asking you that..." "I don't know, then." "I say..." "KAZIMIERZ!" "Have you got our cabin key?" "Please, no prompting." "It's Keyberg..." " Wrong answer." "It's Kazimierz." " And I'm Roman." "Next question, please." "Name a domesticated farm animal raised near the Vistula River... and give us the sound it makes." "Could you repeat the question?" "Domesticated farm animal..." "Lives by the river..." "Give us a sound and a name." "I'm Piotr Pietrzyk from Rzeszów." "You don't get the idea." "I don't want your name..." "I need the animal's name and the sound it makes." "How long do I have to answer?" "Be more specific..." "Do you know the answer, or not?" "Of course... it's a cow." "What does the jury say?" "A cow is OK." "But we meant..." " A horse." " Yes." "What sound does it make?" "Stop." "Time's up." "What does the jury say?" "That's not quite the answer..." "We meant a sound from the mouth." "Clippety-clop, clippety-clop..." "Neeeiiighh - that's what we meant." "The questions are biased!" "How did you manage to get locked in the ladies' toilet?" "I'm asking you for your own good." "You'll have to justify your actions to me... and to this gentleman who's in charge of the investigation." "Why did you come late for the rehearsal?" "Why didn't you come out and shout that you'd be late?" "You just didn't show up for the rehearsal." " I was shouting but nobody heard!" " So why didn't you come out?" "But I was hammering on the door!" "Where were YOU?" "!" "Don't raise your voice to me." "I'M NOT AFRAID OF YOU!" ""Swoosh of surf, trilling birds, Golden sand among the trees."" ""All these things in summertime Forever remind me of you."" ""Forever remind me of you."" ""Sha-ba-da-ba..."" "But wait, wait, wait..." "This song..." "You were meant to sing something more politically aware." "And I let myself get drawn into something like this instead." "But it is politically aware." " It is." " In what way?" "It ought to be preceded by an introduction... to explain that it's set in Greece or Portugal... where, sadly, love cannot bloom." "There's no room for love now." "Yes. if we do an introduction it'll all be clear." "So we need an introduction." "All right." "Very well..." ""Sha-ba-da-ba..."" ""Swoosh of surf, trilling birds, Golden sand among the trees."" ""All these things in summertime Forever remind me of you."" ""Forever remind me of you."" "Got any new proof?" "Some new evidence, maybe?" "Engineer Mamon just went to the ladies' toilet." "Justice must not only be done, it must be seen to be done!" "You're an expert in these matters, you know what to do." "I don't want to interfere." "Engineer Mamon must be punished." "We must pass sentence on him." "We really need proof of his guilt!" "Exactly, so go and find some." "Go and look for Mr Waclaw..." "I need more time to prepare this case." "I must find proof." "You've got until lunchtime..." "You take care of it." "We don't have time for that..." "Things are getting out of hand." "My friends..." "I think the situation has reached the point... where we should stop beating around the bush." "I think... we should expel one member of the Cruise Council." "I hope everyone agrees with me." "We need to enumerate the charges we already have... and having done so, we must find someone... who we deem suitable, and who fits those charges." "Then we simply need to expel that person." "Over to you..." "On board this ship we have a person who... 'indulges' in beer... during office hours." "Therefore it should be obvious to everybody..." " Do you have someone in mind?" " Yes, I do." " So we should list the charges." " Shall we?" " We shall." " It's M-Mamon, the engineer..." "Engineer Mamon." "Apparently we all agree, gentlemen, concerning... the case of engineer Mamon." " Mamon." "Yes." "So... do we..." "Do we still need to..." "In your opinion, do we still need to... pass a resolution?" "No, we've already passed it." "And, of course, we shall inform... the interested party:" "Mr Mamon." "Shouldn't he be one of the signatories to this resolution?" "No!" "In my opinion, we should see..." "If he insists, perhaps he can?" "No, we'd end up in a debate... and stray from the matter in hand." "He may raise counter-arguments and try to defend himself..." "I'll be damned, gentlemen!" "I spent ages queuing at the bar... just for these four beers." "Maybe you'd fancy one?" "Here you go" " Zywiec Full Light." "Help yourselves." " Bloody good, isn't it?" " No... not really..." "Mr Mamon..." "You were slightly late for our meeting... and, consequently, you aren't fully aware of the issues... we discussed here just a few moments ago." "Not to mention the fact... that we are all obliged to come to meetings on time." "I'm very sorry for being late this time." "I understand, I really do." "Of course..." "But the thing is that... this gentleman here has something to tell you." "It's quite unpleasant, but he has agreed... to inform you about it." "Please, go ahead." "It has been remarked that you..." "Let's not say what was remarked." "That we already know..." "It's not really about the beer but... about the words you used." "But, in the end, what was it that we agreed to?" "We have decided that you will be expelled from the Cruise Council." "We even feel that this will be better for you... as you seem very busy, and don't have much time... to devote to Cruise Council matters." " It's a little bit..." " Now you'll have time to drink beer." " No need to be unkind." " Thank you very much, gentlemen." "Engineer, I wanted to thank you very much for your cooperation." "We were getting on very well, it was nice and amicable." " It's a pity that..." " Goodbye, gentlemen." ""Happy Birthday to you!"" ""Live a hundred years!"" ""Happy Birthday to you!"" ""Live a hundred years!"" "Stop, stop, stop!" "I'm telling you, it should be a cheerful, optimistic song." "You were in the gymnastic section so you should be more positive." "You were active there, you were part of the collective." " More lively, Józef..." " Your "Happy" is so empty." "That song you sang to us... the one we analysed, it was happy and optimistic." " "Happy...!"" " Stop smiling at me!" "Smiling doesn't help." "Sing happily and cheerfully." "If you don't sing optimistically, there's no point." "Not singing happily makes it sound pessimistic, rotten and gloomy." "This needs to be optimistic, full of genuine optimism." "But this, sir, is gratuitously perverse pessimism... because you're not only smiling, you're also singing grimly!" "So, sing optimistically this time!" "Right, off you go:" ""Happy Birthday!""
