" Over there." " Guy." "Fact, it's a guy." " Nah." " It's a guy!" " So why the skirt?" " Cos she's lost her pants!" " Well?" "Why are you just standing there?" " What heat...." " They sawed it off with a fretsaw." "First the fingers..." " ...then the palm." "So that he couldn't shoot." " But I'm a lefty." "Shoot with my left!" " Here's something." " Fokich, where are they all off to?" " Alyosha knows them." " Give it here." " What's going on there?" " A dead man." " Some folk were burning bread, and he wanted to stop it." " They did him in with pitchforks." "He was a good man." " Not necessarily smart, but good." " I didn't like him." " Keep it to yourself." " Didn't like him and that's that!" " If you died and it was said about you." " Say it, I don't care." " Shut up." " What?" " Shut up, I said!" " Here, hold this." " Where is he?" " Who?" " The deceased." " On the cart." "What's it to you?" " No reason." " A strange one." " I told you she was a girl." " Where do we put the laundry?" " Put it down here." " Let's go home." " Go away." " Go away, I'm telling you." " You devil." "Monster!" " My darling!" "My precious!" " What's with you?" "Off your head?" " Hold that." "Wait, wait." " Where are you going prettyboy?" "You want to go to her?" " Go on, go on." " What about the horses?" " What about them?" "Horses are horses." " Go, go." "She's drunk." " And what's her name?" " How the hell do I know?" " No, without a name I can't." " "Can't", "can't"." "And you talk about being with "women"." " Give the horses some water." "Get lost!" "Go on." "Go." " Let's go, or I'll whip you wretches." " Get out!" "I'll kill you!" " Give me my belt!" "Witch!" " Semyonov." "Semyonov!" " Private." "Private." " How do you know me?" " I know you." " Where from?" " We delivered laundry to you." " Do you remember me?" " Mhhmm." " What?" " It's ticklish."

" No, it's time for me to get back." " Time?" "We haven't gone yet, and it's already time?" " No, I'm going." " Want some gingerbread?" " Stop, who goes there?" " Friendlies." " What do they call you, then?" " Tanya." " And I'm Alexei." " Well, there you go." "That's us introduced." " Wait at the docks, I'll come tomorrow." " It's beautiful." " Let's kiss." " Look, the sun." " The hell with it." " What's that?" " A bear." " It's a cow." " It's a bear." " A cow!" " Have you ever known a bear without paws?" "Of course not." " I suppose not." " No, it's worse with paws." " Oh God, I'm drawing." " Draw!" "Draw!" " Alesha..." " Draw!" "Idiot." " Hello." " What a rubbish brooch." " It's broken, has it?" " Give it here, I'll glue it together." " It's worse with paws." " Is there tea?" " Yes, have a seat." " Move over." " Drink." " What's with you?" " I'm in love." " Sure." " It's true." " And who have you fallen in love with?" " Aleshka." "The accordion player." " Remember, from the produce section." " Which one?" "The freckled one?" " So he's freckled." "Freckled, but mine." "OK?" " Oh, Tanya." "Marxism is what you need." " Marxism, Marxism, Marxism and again Marxism." " Ignatich?" "Is it good that I'm in love?" " What's bad about it?" "Love is a fact, and facts are materialistic." " So what should I do then?" " Ignatich, have you ever been in love?" " I have." " And how was it?" " It was good, what can I say." " Good?" "There you go." " And Fokich, ever been in love?" " Him too." " Enough already, enough." " Well friends, I'm looking alright, eh?" " That's true, you're one of a kind." " What's with you?" " Ignatich." "You're also freckled." " Where'd you get that from." " Freckled, freckled, take a look." " As if..." " Freckled, freckled." " Well, take care friends." " See you!" " Listen Fokich, I am freckled..." "there's something there." " Here's what it is." " You're worrying about your mug, but that shouldn't upset you." " How did you just speak to that girl?" " How?" " "Love is a fact" ...what are you preparing her for?" " For life." " Life?" "!" "In what sense?" " Life!" "The bourgeois are living, we're struggling." " And from a Comissar." " Ignatich." "Ignatich!" "Listen, Ignatich." "Get up." " Get up, I'm telling you." " They've whacked a tsar." " Which tsar?" " Of all of Russia." "Read, here." " Yes..." " How the world has turned." " Who could have thought it?" "The tsar himself." " Great, huh?" " Great." " Here, grab that." " Cheers." " If it were up to me, I'd shove them all into a pit." " Generals, bankers, whores, tsars, speculators." " Stir, and do them in with a machine gun, a machine gun." " To cleanse the people, like a bath-house." " A very bloody option you favour." " If not with blood, how?" "Without it there's no revolution." " If not, then not." "But it'd be good to have less." " Of what?" " Bloodshed." " Listen, Ignatich." "That could lead you to god knows where." "Think about it." " First, too much blood." " Then you're worried about hurting somebody's feelings." " Before you know it we've squandered the whole Revolution!" " But have you ever had to kill a man?" " I've blown up a whole train, with generals inside." " That's not the same." " Have you killed a man, whilst looking him in the eyes?" " Let's say no." " I have." " But those were enemies you killed!" " Enemies!" "But it's still horrific." " Sit, sit." " You're a good man Ignatich." " I love you." " But what sort of Comissar are you?" " You're green, you lack fortitude." " Nevermind, we'll sort that out, you'll mature." " No fortitude, you say?" " No." " You know where I served before the front?" " Where?" " In the Revolutionary Tribunal, as the chairman." " And?" " I had a Mauser (rifle), and you know how much everyone respected me?" " Well?" " Clever, they called me, came to me for advice." " Not everyone, but they did come." " About fodder, about economy, about questions of war." " Actors came, also asking for advice." " At first, fool that I am, I was flattered." " But later I caught on that they weren't coming to me for advice." " To who then?" " To my Mauser!" " So?" " The people were afraid!" " Afraid, and good." " Teaching people to be afraid causes harm!" " Go on then, work out what's fear and what's truth." " Ignatich, you're saything the wrong things." " Believe a communist." " You'll perish." "A dicatorship is a dictatorship." " To fight is what you need, to fight." " You've soured here." " To fight is right." " There's no ford through fire." " So you love me, then?" " I do." " Honestly?" " I love you." " And a lot?" " A lot." " Machine guns or not, I've got a naked sword and hack away." " It's dull with you Tanka, dull." " There's neither laughter in you, nor tears." " Maybe we'll get married, huh?" "Maybe you'll cheer up?" " So how about it?" "The Sun was setting" "By the river Oka" "And the boy was dreaming" " Alyosha." " What?" " What were you talking about before?" " I was talking about everything, talking as required." " We'll get married, you said." " What?" " We'll get married, didn't you say?" " No." " Of all the things we talked about that wasn't one of them." "It wasn't." "He's a Red Army soldier" "Bravely going into battle." "The Sun was setting." " Hey!" "Tomorrow come at 3, same place." " Sitting there, eh?" " Brother, where'd the train go?" " Where should it go?" "Gone on a run." " Will it return soon?" " Could be a month, could be longer." " We're in a war" " Just my luck." " Friends, I've gotten married." " Again?" "Well, you know miss, you don't waste time." " I'm serious." " Let it be, Valodya." " I'm serious." "Kol!" " Hello, everyone." " Hello." " Good." "And what are you called, pray tell?" " Kolka." " Where are you from?" " Us?" "Oh, I'm from Okulovkia." " Why, young man, have you run away from the country?" " They've cleaned us out." " Who's cleaned you out?" " Who?" "Isn't it well known?" "Bolsheviki?" " What are you doing?" "From one harness to another." " The kids' stomachs are bursting from hunger." "The wife's gone deaf." " So you're married?" " How else?" "A man, without a wife?" " And what did you do with her?" " With who?" " Fell out of love?" " Her?" " Your wife." " There's nothing to eat." "Moved to the city, still nothing." " Thank god I met her, and she said..." " ... that you give rations out here, a salary on time." " I..." "Is that right, or not?" " Right." " So how about it, boss?" "Do you give rations or not?" " I can be a driver." "Can make porridge, can work as a joiner." " So, boss?" "Do you give them out or not?" " OK, OK." " Then it's ok." "Then I'm staying." " I'm healed!" " I can better tell, if you're healed already or not." " Plotnikov." "You hear?" "Plotnikov." " What, what?" " What are you doing then?" " Smoking" " Give some here." " Here's the thing." " I was going with a girl, an orderly." " And?" " Decided to marry." " A real woman." " Only she isn't pretty." "Who needs them pretty?" " Only she's skinny." " But who needs them fat?" " That's what I sey [sic]." " That's what love's like, it doesn't notice..." " whether you're pretty or ugly." "You fall in love and that's it." " That's what I sey." " A bit stupid though." " Nothing to talk about." " But who needs them smart?" "Will only cause bother." " That's what I sey." " Sey, sey." " They've gathered up a bunch of stiffs here." " Can't find anyone to talk about life with." " Not to mention death." " Get up!" "Get up!" "We're here." " Oh, look at all the people." " Surely they can't all be wounded." " Doctor!" "Take him in." " At the start they were all in one piece." " And then they circled us, surrounded us." "Everyone fell." " And only me." "I alone am to blame for everything." " What sort of commander am I?" "!" " Go on, go on, in the carriage." " Faster, faster." " Stop!" "Stop, where..." " Stop, I'm telling you." " Do you know how to take a fucking order?" " An order!" " Commissar!" " Listen, old man, go back to where you came from." " I'll rip your arm off" " You just try." " I'll kill you now, grandpa..." " ...and Frunze will thank me for it." " This carriage is for political means." " Understand?" " Well, if it's like that, then it's another thing altogether." " If it's Frunze." " Why didn't you tell me right away!" " Let's go, let's go." " I'm holding it." " Where are you going..." "outsiders aren't allowed." " What outsider, I'm his mother." " So what, you're not allowed." " Can't you see how many people there are?" " As long as we've been travelling, I've never seen anything like this." " How are you supposed to transport them all?" " To not let a mother onboard..." " Not allowed." "Orders." " Yeah, yeah, you're always like that." "A mother's worth less than an order." " Stop it, you counter-revolutionary." " I'll kill you!" " Maybe it'll do?" " What's the rush?" " A leg isn't governmental, and you have to walk on it." " Did he die?" " Passed away." " What a life." "Once there was a kid..." "now there isn't." " Hold that, I don't want to fix your leg." " Who didn't let the mother on yesterday?" "Who?" " The boy died without his mother." " I didn't let her on and I'd do it again." " It's forbidden." " A general!" "Who forbade it?" " By the working class!" " So that's it!" "Hear that, the working class!" " Need to be human." "Human!" " Human?" "Where do you get off, you vermin, going against the working class." " Comrades, why this is an S.R!" " Who's an S.R?" "Me?" " Why I've laboured my whole life." "Me, an S.R?" "I'm a Bolshevik." " I'd sign up to the party right now!" " Worm, you know what the party means?" " Brothers, he's looking to fight." "You should stop acting the commissar." " Stop the meeting, this is a field hospital." "Impossible to sleep." " Used to brawling." "Who are you talking to?" "You're talking to the people!" " See that?" "Him, the people!" " The people!" "I'll smash you, you worm." " Isn't that so, tell him, tell him." " And you're an S.R." "Get in line, who here's an S.R?" " Eh, Bolshevik, S.R. They all stink, all of them love power." " He's not just an S.R, he's also a Cadet." "He's from S.R. headquarters!" " Get him against the wall!" "Against the wall!" "Against the wall!" " What's with you brothers, can't even tell a Bolshevik from an S.R." " Which of them is shedding blood?" " Which of them cares about his fellow man?" " Who?" "Without love life's impossible" "But with love life is just miserable." "But with love life is intolerable." "Why is this just so inevitable." " Wake up!" "Enough yawning." " What's with you?" "Go to sleep." " Listen Ignatich." " Why isn't there Soviet rule beyond our borders." "Are they stupider than us?" " Go to sleep." " Well why is it, Ignatich?" " They lack strength, and they live better than us." " You haven't felt it yet, haven't matured." " I understand." " Fine, you understand." " I hope it's soon." "I hope we win soon." "It's hard, Ignatich." " The people are lonely." "I hope it's soon." " Go sleep!" " You were right when you said..." "it won't be that way." " What way?" " So that everyone is happy." " But you...you Ignatich, you will never be happy." " And why is that?" " Because your eyes are all wrong." " Oh Tanka, we teach you, teach you." "Materialism!" " But you're still on your own track." " Wrong eyes!" " Yes, wrong." " Why are you not a Komsomolka?" " I don't know." " "Don't know"." "Well you get ready!" " When we get to Sergeevski I'll give you a recommendation." " "Wrong eyes"." " It's difficult for me Tanka, difficult." " I've gone stale here." " I need to go to the front." "Into the fire." " And who's the Commissar?" " Who?" "Fokich." " I've put in for a transfer." " And?" " They let me go." " And what are we going to do?" "Without you?" " So you've returned." "So you've returned." " You're looking ok." "You've become prettier." " Why'd you stop?" "Am I worse than them then?" " Worse." " Prizor!" "My darling!" "My darling!" " You know what, Tanka, you have to decide." "It's either him or me." " This won't do." " Alyosh, my god, you're my love." " Go on." " My love!" " Like it?" " Yeah, I like it." " And who would you be?" " Me?" " Yeah." " A painter." "Understand?" " Listen girl, come here." " Could you find something to eat?" " Go on, bring it over." " One second." " Sit down." "Sit, sit." " The porridge is ok, only it's burnt a little." " Put it down on the floor." " What's your name, then?" " Tyotkina." " What?" " Tanya Tyotkina." " Would you like to paint, Tyotkina?" " Go paint...the frock." " Well, go on Tyotkina." "A painter, you'll be." " Go on, go on." " And I've become a painter." " A painter?" " That hurt?" "My darling fighter." " Kol!" "Where are you going?" " I'm leaving Manka" " Why?" " She's chewed me up." "Might as well hang myself." " Not affectionate, she says." "What's she asking for, the fool." " And where are you off to?" " To my newphew's." "I'll stay the winter..." "...and in the spring go home, to my wife, my kids." "Bye!" " Bye!" " Need to sow wheat." " Tanya, listen...my best to Manka." " To Manka, I'm saying, give my best." " I left her some crackling on the windowsill." "Take care!" " Who's that?" "Well?" " Soon..." " What?" " Soon, I hope there's a worldwide revolution soon." " What what?" " It's hard, the people are suffering." "I hope it comes soon." " That's for you, drink." " Well, how's it going?" " Not bad." " And what's that?" " That?" "The sun." " How's that the sun?" "It's a wheel." " "Wheel"." "It's the sun." " Nope." " The sun." " That's the Sun over there..." "this isn't it." " You don't understand anything of our business, Fokich." " Well, you don't get wise, and draw it as is." " Understand?" " I Understand." " Listen Fokich." "You mind your own business, and don't meddle." " I'm teaching her, I'm the painter." " You're a painter, and I'm the Colonel." " She's here." " Let her wait." "A woman has to be patient." " Alyosha!" " Get away from here" " Why have you dressed up in these rags?" " Where's the sweater?" " Sold it." " And the money?" " What's that?" " Who's that for?" " You." " Tell it to me straight." "You don't want to get married?" " I don't know." "I'm afraid." " Three days ago she gave me a scarf." " But now a suit..." " I'm scared of her." " Maybe she's sick?" " Who?" " She." " Who's she?" " Tanka." " She's a psycho." "Take my word for it, a psycho." " OK Semenov, sleep." " Believe me!" " Recently she brought me three packs of tobacco." " Frol Fokich, come here." " What?" " Have a look at what she's doing." " This is interesting, by God, it's interesting." " Draw, Tanka, draw." " It's a good thing, but make sure it's vigorous, in the Bolshevik spirit." " You know Tyotkina, this is good." " I'd even say I like it." " You're not lying?" " I'm not." " This is nothing." " I'm going to paint a real painting soon, that'll be something." " What?" " A painting." "Then you'll see." " This is what?" "A trifle, child's play." " Hear that?" "She'll do a painting soon." " I will." " Don't boast." " Let's sit." " When the war's over, I'll travel to Moscow, become a technician." " Alyosha." " Stay out of trouble, will you?" " It's embarassing Tyotkina, embarassing." " The Revolution's all around us, and you..." " Goodbye." " Goodbye." " Here, I've written you down some poems." "Good poems." " Lermontov's poems." " I'm not going." "Staying behind in the hospital." " Go on, go." " I'm not going." " Get out of here." " Don't forget, there's warm clothes, tobacco and millet." " Take some apples." " And remember me, please." " Well, how is it?" " Do you have anything else I can look at?" " Well?" " Sleep, Tyotkina." "It's late." " Don't be afraid." " I'm already in love with another, Comrade Mastenko." " You're a fool Tyotkina." "A fool." " Or maybe a wonder." "That's me telling you that, Mastenko." " You look after yourself, Tyotkina." " Go have a look." " Let me through." " Cover up your knees, you cow." " Going far, fellas?" " To the front, to the Don (river)." " Take me, fellas." " What is it, Ignatich?" " You hear?" " Nothing, nothing." " Fadey Semyonovich, something's not right with Ignatich." " Easy, easy." " You fool, where are you going with a saddle, this is the infantry." " Stop!" "Stop, we're telling you." "Stop!" " Where are you going, Ignatich?" " Stop, my friend." " How are we going to be without you?" " Hey pal, they're shouting for you," " For you, I swear, for you." " Eh, you're a post, not a person." " Keep your legs warm!" "Protect your legs!" " Where are you going?" " To the front." " Give it back." "Give it!" " Stand up." " How could I leave him there alone, without me." " Let go." "Let go." "Let go!" " You'll travel to Alekseyevka" " Take the wounded, and from there to Korshenova" " Understand?" " But be careful, there should already be Whites in Vasilievka" " And we'll get them, with the revolver." "Am I right, Tanka?" " Faster, my darling, faster!" " Komsomolka?" " Komsomolka" " Worked on a medical train?" " Yes" " As what?" " An orderly." " Do you have parents?" " No." " Who do you want to be, in this life?" " A painter." " So, you want to be a painter." " Tell me which of these icons you like best." " Well?" "Which one of these icons do you like best?" " That one." " Show me." " This one." " Correct." " Father Porfiry, the owner of the house, is ignorant." " That's why the icon is poorly hung." " But it's priceless." " 16th century." " Are you Russian?" " Russian." " Do you love Russia?" " I do." " And I." " See, we both love Russia." " But what's going on, do you know, here in Russia?" " Revolution." " And for what?" " Have you asked yourself that?" " Well, what else?" " We've brought him, Colonel." " Bring him in about 5 minutes." " As you wish." " Well, tell me, tell me, don't be afraid." " To kill all the tormentors." " Sit." " Sit." " Do you believe..." "...that there will come a time when people will stop being tormented?" " I do." " So you believe in overall harmony?" " In what?" " Grace." " In what?" " In Grace." " I don't understand." " Well, when it will be good for everyone." " I believe that." " And in search of that let brother go against brother?" " Russian against Russian?" "Is that it?" " There's no ford through fire." " No, no, no, no, no, no." "No?" " No." " So there's belief in you." " Belief." " In you, belief?" " Yes." " Well, you have to suffer for your beliefs." " Are you ready to suffer?" " How's that?" " To suffer." " When?" " Tomorrow." "Today, if you like." "As you wish." " Tomorrow." " Are you afraid?" " But what if I let you go?" "Would you like that?" " I will, I'll let you go, if that is what you want." " I do." " And I, girl, almost believed you." " How's that?" " In your "belief"." "But you don't have any." " No belief." " I do." " No." " I do." " Don't touch." "Get off me." " Don't touch." "Don't touch." " See, girl." "People like that are teaching you." " And will control you." " And so what?" "We have more intelligent people, big people." "Tanya, am I right?" " You, girl, can go." "Go." "Saygin, let her go, she's free." " Go, go, go." " Go on, my darling." "Go." "Go, my dove." "Go." " I'm talking to you, go!" "It's the right thing to do." " If you see our people, bow to them." "Tell them hello, from Fokich." " Fedarenko, Let her pass." " Well, your honour, you ask your questions and quick" " I don't have time." " How angry you are." " If it were up to me I'd throw you all into a pit and with machineguns..." " This we've heard." "More to the point..." " Well, get to the point then." " As you are, swine." " Surrender, vermin." "Surrender." " Surrender..." " Saygin!"
