"So, listen up, you swine!" "We've fought a little and now we've returned home." "And I know exactly what you're thinking!" "You're thinking:" "Oops!" ", here we are!" "The Foreign Legionnaires!" "Each one of us a hero , huh?" "The world is a huge barrel full of schnapps!" "With women swimming on top!" "But that's where you're wrong." "So this time, behave like proper gentlemen, and not like a herd of pigs!" "Yes, I'm talking to you!" "Have you understood me?" "Why aren't you standing in file ?" "What are doing with your fingers?" "Nothing." "Nothing at all." " Stand in line, you!" "Everything has been packed and prepared, Monsieur." " Thank you." "It's all been taken care of." "I hope I haven't forgotten anything." "Merci, Monsieur." "That's very kind of you." "Your first trip to Morocco?" "Yes." " I do this trip often." "Maybe I can be of some help to you." "I would be glad to help where I could." "That won't be necessary, I hope." "You can reach me anytime at this address, Mademoiselle." "Merci, Monsieur." "Good evening, Monsieur!" " To you too!" "Do you know that lady over there?" "A honky-tonk singer, I suppose." "You're crazy." "What makes you think that?" " We see that every day here." "We call them suicide passengers." "One-way ticket, know what I mean?" "They never return." "Look!" "The return of the wanderer." "How are you?" " Fine, thanks." "When did you get back?" " Yesterday evening." "Alexander, I' d like to introduce you to a friend of mine, M. La Bessiere." "Monsieur is a man of the world." " lt's a pleasure." " A man of the world." "You're French, aren't you?" " Yes." "Mrs. Marten." " Are you actually the painter La Bessiere?" "I only paint when I have time." " He's got as much time as he wants." "He would be a magnificent painter, if he weren't so rich." "Colonel Buchard." "Colonel." " Good evening" " Would you not like to join us?" " Here you go." "I' d love to actually, but is that not Caesar and his wife?" "Ajan!" " Then excuse me please." "It's really nice to see you in Morocco again." " I like it here." "Even in this heat. - lt sure is hot." " And you, Mdm." "Caesar?" "What have you been doing?" " I' ve just been bored." "We've missed you." "I' m extremely flattered." "Very democratic, your rich friend." "He seeks his friends according to his own taste." "He can afford to." "And what do you know about his wife?" "The less one says, the better." "The house is crowded." "We have a full-house!" "This is a crucial evening for me." "If you make a good impression, you can perform here as long as you want." "I don't know, if you've heard of me in Europe." "Never mind." "Anyway." "Morocco's high-society patronize my establishment." "What else did I wish to say." "Oh, yes." "Be clever and get yourself a personal bodyguard as soon as possible." "It's good for your prestige." "A legionnaire from the foreign legion." "They'll tell you stories, the officers from the legion, they act all important." "An ordinary legionnaire." "That would be a big fish." "They'll tell you, soldier so-and-so is a Russian Prince .." "or a former General who joined the legion to escape his past." "Don't believe it, my child!" "The ordinary Legionnaire is a nobody with 75 Centimes pay a day." "Thanks." "Get yourself an officer!" "They've got money." "My honorable Ladies  Gentlemen." "As you yourselves know, it's no easy task to continuously provide my establishment with new talent." "For some unknown reason, the performers don't remain here long." "It must have something to do with the heat." "I do my best and pay the highest wages in all of Africa." "Mille grazie, signore e signori." "I' ll open tonight's program with Mms." "Amy Jolly, just arrived." "And please, dear patrons, welcome the lady with your own discriminating kindness." "If I remember rightly, the audience here has a way of showing it's discriminating kindness by receiving newcomers with it's own brand of unfriendliness." "Alright, then sit where you wish." "Allow me to offer you a glass of Champagne?" "Merci." "To you." "A present for me ?" " Of course." "Just sing your number once!" "Und you can sell the apples then!" "Apple sales are most important!" "You'll make a fortune that way, my child." "Yes." "Over my dead body, girl." "Goodbye." "Don't get held up, baby." "We meet again!" "I could never have dreamt of having the pleasure so soon again." "Do you think I could have an apple?" "I can't change that." " That's exactly what I was expecting." "You're very kind to me again." "Mademoiselle, would you care to join me after the show?" "." "Unfortunately not!" "I' m no longer available for the rest of the evening." "Then maybe another time?" " Certainly." "An apple, Monsieur?" "Madame?" "It's pointless." "There's no money in the cheaper seats!" "Ah, is that a fact?" "Thanks a lot for the flowers, Mademoiselle." "May I also offer you an apple?" "Lend me 20 Francs!" "That comes to 60!" "Half a month's pay is a lot of money for an apple." "You can have it for free if you want." "Death is for free!" "I always pay for what I get." "If I were you I would sit down." "You're a very courageous man   with the women!" "What do you want?" "Don't you like courageous men?" " Maybe." "Your change, soldier." "Tom?" "Hello!" "I'll eat my hat if that's not Madame Caesar!" "Tom, will we see each other tonight?" " Later tonight?" "And if your husband sees you?" " He won't see us!" "That's what you say." "And if he does see you?" "Caesars Frau is above any suspicion!" " Oh really?" "You might know all about history, but I know all about husbands." "Tom!" "Oh!" "It's you?" "You seem surprised?" "Were you maybe expecting someone else?" "May I offer you something?" "Cognac?" " Too hot!" "Have you any gin?" "Yes." "Cigarette?" " Thank you." "You've done up the room very beautifully!" "It looks completely different." " How do you know that?" "Were you maybe here before?" "Well, my unit has been stationed here a long time, Mademoiselle." "Do you not drink?" "No." "Well then!" "You can smell the desert clearly tonight." "Hot, isn't it?" "Withered!" "You can go now, soldier!" "Alright, my lady." "I shall leave by myself." "You don't seem to be very self-confident, do you?" "It depends." "Maybe I am." "With women!" "You obviously don't have a very high opinion of women!" "That's the fault of women, Mademoiselle." "Not mine!" "Have you been in the foreign legion a long time?" " Next month it will be 3 years." "Three years ..." "It feels like 300!" "Sounds almost suicidal." " I' m not sure if I am now." "I sure was when I joined the legion.." "And you?" "Have you been on the stage a long time?" "Long enough." " Do you regret it?" " No!" "You've a lot of pictures of him. ls he your husband?" "My husband?" "No man up till now was good enough for that title." "I have the same opinion!" "Only that I' ve got it with women." "When was that picture there taken?" " Why?" "Looks like a Russian sable." "Very expensive!" "Do you still have it?" "You've got to be kidding!" "Do you think I' d be here?" "What made you ever want to come to a country such as Morocco?" "You should never ask why someone enrolls in the Foreign Legion." "That's right." "Nobody has ever asked me." "I' d never have answered anyway." "When I ended up in this association, I managed to bury my past." "There's also a Foreign Legion for women." "Only, we don't wear any uniforms, no flags" "and no medals, for our bravery!" "No official injury signs, if we're wounded." "Listen, if I can help you in any way, I'll do it!" "Oh no!" "I' ve heard that line often enough." "Or do you believe, you could replace my trust in men kind?" "I don't think so!" "I' m probably not the right one for that kind of thing." "Whoever places their trust in me, Mademoiselle, is dumb!" "You'd better leave now!" "I' m ..." "I' m starting to like you." "I' ve told women basically all you could possibly tell them." "But I' m going to tell you something which I' ve never told anyone before." "I wish I had met you ten years earlier." "Good night." " Good night." "And thanks!" "Oh, the night is still young!" "There are your keys." "I wouldn't be so openhanded with them!" "Tom!" "There's someone coming!" "Are you going for a walk?" "To get a bit of fresh air?" "No, I' ve been looking for you!" "It's good that you found me." "It's not a very safe area here." "It's better if I take you home!" "120?" " No, I wish it were true!" "I only seem so light to you because you're so strong." "I think, this time we'll get along a bit better!" "Listen!" "Go in, otherwise you'll get another one!" "I' m asking you for the last time:" "Who were the two women?" "Would you please get your knee off my hip!" "Do you really think that the two women, whose reputations you're protecting, are really worth the trouble?" " One of them certainly is." "Monsieur La Bessiere is here to pick you up for the club." "I'll be ready in a minute." "Let him in." " Certainly." "Please come in, Monsieur!" " Thank you." "I never knew that being in the military could keep you so busy." " Oh yes!" "Sit down!" "Maybe you'lI learn something new about this country, which you find so wonderful." "Can I have a light?" "This affair, by the way, involves a person who you're quite interested in." " Now I' m getting curious!" "Please request the lady to enter!" "Monsieur La Bessiere, you surely know!" "I' m pleased to see you again." " Take a seat." " Me too." "It's so nice of you to have come, Mademoiselle." "You were there tonight, and witnessed how the prisoner caused grievous injuries to two defenseless locals?" "These people weren't defenseless!" "They attacked us." "Who was the other woman?" " I don't know." "I' d like to know myself!" "Go on, take a seat!" "The strange thing is that I obviously seem to be the only one here to know, who this other woman is!" "If you really know, then you'd better keep it to yourself!" "Be quiet, Caesar." "Don't get so worked-up!" "Bring the man back to the station!" " Allez!" "I really appreciate, that you tried with great fairness to keep my wife's name out of this!" "You're welcome, Adjutant!" "You can go now, Mademoiselle!" "Please excuse me for a moment." "You look so charming again!" "What will they do to him?" "I don't know." "I personally wouldn't like to have Adjutant Caesar as an enemy." "I have the unfortunate talent of getting people into difficulties, wherever I go." " Nonsense!" "I could exert my influence on Caesar." "Maybe I could help you." "Every time, when a man has helped me, he then named his price." "What do you ask of me?" "My price?" "A smile?" "I don't possess much more than that." "Could we go?" "Here, your passport!" "You're a free man." "You can do what you want." "Until tomorrow at 7 in the morning." " What's behind all that ?" "They're marching out to Amalfa-Pass!" " Without me, I' m happy here." "Tell Caesar, I' m not going with them." "Do it yourself, he's going to be there too." "Who's going to be there?" " Am I speaking Chinese?" "Caesar!" "So that's why he didn't bring me up before the court martial." "He wants to take me somewhere with bullets flying around my head." "That's all your own doing with your constant brawls!" "Right, Sergeant." "But I' m not going to let myself be used for target practice." "I' ve had enough of this crappy Legion anyway." "I think I' ve finally found the right woman." "I' m going to marry her and enjoy a couple of nice weeks on the beach." "ls that so?" "Then I wish you all the best!" "By the way, I hope you haven't forgotten the penalty for desertion?" "There are 100 ways to die." "I'll find the way that suits me best!" "Get a move on!" "Get out of here, go!" "He's in the cloakroom!" "You're in luck, girl!" "He's so rich, he could buy all of Morocco." "Don't forget me!" "Good evening!" "Your flowers are magnificent!" "Have you heard anything from him?" " I did what I could." "He won't be court martialed." "He's apparently being transferred." "That would mean of course that he would have to leave the town." "Are you in love with him?" "I don't know." "I hope not." "I can't possibly accept that." "It's worth a fortune." "Something of less worth would not be worthy of yours!" "I need to get changed!" "I' d like to help you get out of here." "Would you?" "What kind of an offer are you actually making me?" "A very conventional one." "My offer is an honorable one:" "I ask for your hand!" "You're a strange man!" "Do you find it so strange that I' m fond of you?" "Do you want an answer straight away?" "I would be able to sleep a lot better if you did." "It wouldn't be very upright of me to accept your proposal." "Does that mean you're in love?" " No, I don't think so." "What would have been your reply, if you hadn't met that soldier?" "Possibly the same." "I don't know." "Excuse the disturbance, but we're marching out tomorrow morning , and I just wanted to take my leave of you." "I assume, you would like to be left alone." "As far as I know, you've got an arduous mission ahead of you." "May I wish you the best of luck?" " Thank you." "Until then, Mademoiselle" " Until then." "Will you be away a long time?" "When shall I see you again?" "Maybe never." "I have a strange feeling that I may not return this time." "I don't want to." "You!" "I thought about that too." "I could desert and stowaway on a cargo ship." "Why won't you do it?" "I would do it immediately if you'd come with me." "Will you come with me?" "Yes!" "My performance." "Wait for me." "I' ve changed my mind." "Lots of luck!" "If you could free one hand, I would like to say goodbye to you." "Goodbye, Mademoiselle." "Why did you go out tonight?" "I had some more visits to pay." "What kind of women are they?" " These women?" "I' d only describe them as rearguard." "They can't keep up with the rest of the troops!" "They catch up, but sometimes they don't." "And when they catch up, their men are often already dead." "These women must be insane!" "I don't know." "They ..." "They love their men!" "Why are we ducking?" "We'll just have to get up again." "These wandering bed sheets don't know how to shoot anyway." "If it doesn't suit you, then just quit the Legion!" "Didn't you tell me you wanted to desert?" "I' ve become a new man, Sergeant." "A respectable one." "What did you say?" "Yes, it's true." "I' m in love!" "It's better if you don't go in there, Monsieur La Bessiere." "What's wrong, Lo Tinto?" " What's up?" "She was drinking like a fish!" "And don't send her anymore flowers in pots!" "She just threw one at my head an hour ago!" "Hello, look who it is!" " Bonsoir, Mademoiselle." "How do you like me now?" "." " You seem very happy." "Have you got some good news?" "Heard anything from Soldier Brown?" "Not bad handwriting for a soldier!" "Maybe it's better that way." "Give me a drink!" "Call my chauffeur, Lo Tinto." "Tonight you're going to lose your star." "Certainly, Monsieur." "I' m actually losing nothing." "She was of absolutely no use for the last three weeks." "Legionnaire Brown!" "Legionnaire Brown!" " Legionnaire Brown!" "I was on the right track!" "Bad luck, Brown!" "Just a moment, the 20 Francs, you owe me!" "He wasn't a bad soldier, our Casanova." "Raise the MG-Nest!" "May I go too, Mon Capitaine?" "You don't seem at all excited." "You just read on the evening of our engagement, while everything's waiting." "They've all been here a while." " I never believed they would come." "Quite the opposite." "They're compelled by the unconditional capitulation of the world's most resolute bachelor." "I know!" "You're grateful to me for making you so happy." "And for the pearls, which I gave to you as a present this morning." "You're grateful to me for this and for that..." "Shouldn't we go downstairs?" "ls there something wrong?" " Caesar has been slain." "I received the news this morning." "Oh God!" "Legionnaire Tom Brown will apparently return this evening." "ls his company on the retreat?" " What was left of it." "As far as he's concerned, you needn't worry." "Dead or alive!" "You still have time to tell me." " Come now, they're waiting!" "Pick up the pearls and bring them to me in my room." "Where's Tom Brown?" "Did he fall?" " Not so rough, Mademoiselle." "I could collapse with tiredness." "We left him in in Amalfa." "You can't kill a tough nut too easily." "ls he badly injured?" "Mademoiselle, we didn't' go into battle for fun." "First of all, I need a good round of sleep!" "Alexander, don't you think too that it's unusually hot?" "No, I wouldn't say that." "You always have a different opinion." "When I came to Morocco as a youngster, it snowed in Summer!" "Ever heard about that, Monsieur La Bessiere?" "Sorry, what did you say?" "When I came to Morocco as a youngster ..." "What else did I say?" "When you came to Morocco as a youngster, it was raining." "Or something." "That's it!" "I have to go to him!" "They left him in Amalfa." "ls he badly injured?" " I hope not." "I beg you, stay where you are!" "You can listen to the conversation!" "Let me first try to get some information." "If his condition is serious, we'll go there tomorrow." "I' m going now!" "Pack and get ready to leave!" "Well, I love you!" "I do everything to make you happy." "ls Legionnaire Brown here?" " Brown?" "No, we haven't got a Legionnaire Brown here." "Are you sure you're not mistaken?" " Maybe under a different name." "Take a proper look!" "Hello, Mademoiselle!" "What are you doing here?" "I' m looking for Legionnaire Tom Brown!" "You won't find him in the military hospital, that damn swine." "He pretended to be wounded, but they copped onto him." "They transferred him to another company. - ls he still in the town?" "He's sitting in a caf´e around the corner." "And tell him to finally pay me back the 60 Francs he owes me!" "Who is this woman?" "It wouldn't help you if I told you." "Are you totally in love with her?" "Yes!" "Poor boy!" "What are you doing in this part of the world?" "I heard you were wounded." "Not a trace." "I' ve never felt better." "Are you married now?" "." " No, no." "Why didn't you come back with your company?" "Do you not want to marry him, this rich friend of yours?" "Yes I do!" "Are you sure?" "I would never consider otherwise!" "If that's the way it is, then I wish you all the luck in the world." "Back to the barracks!" "Form up, you swine, out!" "This is going to be another tough march!" "Have you lost something?" "Can I help you?" "Get out of here!" "I just forgot my knife." "You also forgot to say goodbye." "We're going to march out at dawn." "Come with us." "Agreed?" "We'll see." "Goodbye, Mademoiselle!" " Goodbye!" "Goodbye, Monsieur!" " Good luck, Legionnaire Brown!" "Subtitles:" "Neil Hennessy GALlLEO MEDlEN AG / Berlin"
