"Police." "We have a few questions." "What is this about?" "Could you, uh, just come with us, please?" "The most fortified city in southern France." "Despite the overwhelming superiority of the Crusader forces, these walls were never breached." "Have you seen Guilhem?" "We were separated." "We have lost the river." "Guilhem!" "Are you wounded?" "No." "No, no, it's the blood of other men." "So many dead." "Help them." "I have to go." "I have to go." "Blessed is the..." "Hold him down." "You have no need of such protection here, my Lord." "A wise soldier always comes prepared against treachery." "No man will harm you during a parley." "I would see him dead first." "That's very touching." "So, Trencavel, have you called us here to surrender?" "I will listen to any just and reasonable proposal for peace." "Do you still defy the Pope and God himself?" "I command you to your knees to beg forgiveness." "You do not command here, my Lord Abbot." "And the Pope may have my soul," " but not my land as well." " Abandon these Cathar devils, and you will be treated with the respect owed to your status." "Not a single one of my subjects will be handed over to the Pope's Inquisitors." "The smoke of their Holy fire would choke me too." "You asked for reasonable terms." "Well, then." "You and a dozen of your household can leave tonight, bearing only what you can carry." "The city, its people and everything in it will then pass to the Host." "You must think I possess neither pride nor courage." "This war is not of my choosing." "But I will fight it to the end." "Tell me, Francois, are there secret paths out of the city?" "Smugglers and thieves will always find a way... for the right reward." "Get a message to Guy D'Evreux." "Tell him I've heard of his interest in the Grail and can help him in his quest." "Tell him there are many ways I can be of service." "Dr. Brayling." "Have you heard from Shelagh?" " Nothing for days." " You could have told me that on the phone." "I thought it was better to deal with this in person." "It's all embarrassing." "It seems she might have taken something from the cave." " Shelagh wouldn't do that." " That was my first reaction." "But it turns out she knew that young policeman who was killed." "Looks like they were working together." "Under the circumstances, I can't blame Marie-Cecile for shutting us down." " Madame De L'Oradore was funding the dig?" " Very generously." "Shelagh was the one who introduced me to her." "They knew each other well." "Come in." "Did you send my message to Lord D'Evreux?" "Yes, and he will grant you safe passage in return for the books." " I have only one." " Yet he is convinced that they are here." "Find them." "Wait." "Take this bread to my father." "Tell him I made it myself." "Intendant Pelletier begs you to seek refuge with him in the Chateau Comtal." "Simeon the Jew is also there." "I know no Simeon." "Get back!" "More tar!" "Make more tar!" "Get him!" "Kill him." "No!" "Spare him." "I will give you what you want." "Please." " Dame..." " What is it, Rixende?" "Come quickly." "It's your father." "It feels as though a wild beast is gnawing at my belly." "How is he?" "The illness has taken hold of him so quickly." "Anything you want is yours." "Send for me if there is any change in his condition." "The Book of Potions." " Will." " Alice, listen." "This..." "This house, there's something wrong here." "I'll come to you." "I have to get out of Carcassonne." "I'll explain when I see you." " Did you find the Tanner woman?" " We lost her." "It doesn't matter." "After tonight, a few loose ends will be irrelevant." "What do you think Marie-Cecile will do when she realizes" "O'Donnell doesn't have what she wants?" "It will be too late for her by then." "She will meet with a tragic accident, and later," "I will destroy every last trace of the Grail." "The cave will be sealed up for eternity." "Tell me, Javier, do you go to confession?" " No." " You should." "There's no finer feeling than receiving Holy Communion in a state of grace." "It feels like... being reborn." "I have a question." "In the caravan, which one of you undressed the girl?" "Oh, come on, who was it?" "That was wrong." "Never mind." "You were doing God's work, whether you knew it or not." "Send for a padre." "I wish to make a good end." "You wish to see a Cathar priest?" "I will not die in the embrace of a church that wages war against us." "The Grail is the word of God, but without the navigator, the labyrinth is a false path." " Where is the Book of Words?" " Words." "My father wishes to die in the Cathar faith." "Close the door." "No one must know I sanctioned this." "Do you, Bertrand Pelletier, vow to follow the rule of justice and truth, and to give yourself to God and to the Cathar church?" "May God bless you, make a good Christian of you, and lead you to a good end." "It has been an honor to serve with you, old friend." "Why was I not informed of my father's illness?" "Has he received the last rites of the Catholic Church?" "He has made his own peace with God." " Leave us." " Why?" "Can I not say a private farewell to my own father?" "Can you hear me, old man?" "Listen well." "The agony you're feeling is my hatred twisting in your guts like a serpent." "I know you are not my real father." "But your death alone will not satisfy me." "Alais will suffer for your sins." "And know this." "With you gone, the secrets of the grail will be mine.**" "We've to report this to the police." "They said they were police." "They showed me I.D." "You sure Marie-Cecile's funding the dig?" " That's what Brayling said." "Look, Will, I can't expect you to believe that." "She was your girlfriend." "You'd be amazed at what I'm starting to believe about her." "What is this, some kind of cult or something?" "This must be what the excavation was about, why she was funding the dig." "There was a labyrinth in the cave." "Still doesn't prove thathe's done anything wrong." "Maybe this does." "What about this?" "Well, this is a winery." "No wine has been made here for years." "That's blood." "If we can't go to the police, then what are we going to do?" "Here's a letter I got at my aunt's house." "The guy who wrote it, I think he's connected somehow." " I'm going to go and see him." "Come with me." " No, I can't." "I've been living with this woman." "I've got to figure out what's been going on." "Hello!" "Will?" "Hey!" "I didn't expect you home so soon." "The meeting was boring." "Did you miss me, darling?" "Of course." " You seem uncomfortable." " No." "Then kiss me as though you mean it." "Maybe you should get that." "Yes, I should." "In private, please." "Would you mind?" "Sorry." " Paul." " What's so important?" "I'm busy." "Shelagh O'Donnell rang." "She has what belongs to us." "But there's a catch." "She's demanding 20,000 Euros." "She wants me to meet her at the cave tomorrow at 6:00." "I've called a meeting of the Noublesso for tonight, but it's not necessary for you to attend, so I'll see you tomorrow at the cave." "Will?" " Darling?" " Hey." "I need the house to myself this evening." "A business matter I have to attend to." "All right." " Are you okay?" " I'm fine." "Don't worry." " I'm sorry you had to see that." " You don't have to explain." "Just be careful." "You too." "Hey..." "I mean that, okay?" "Call me after you see that Baillard guy." "I will." " Take care." " You too." "Tell me where the final book is hidden." "I already have that one!" "Tell me where it is, or I'll make you suffer." "Show me where it is!" " You're father cannot protect you now!" " Oriane!" "Let her go." "I came as soon as I heard." "I'm so sorry." "I'm so very sorry." "What hypocrisy." "You hated him as much as I did." "If he was harsh with me, it was only to make me a better man," " a better husband." " How noble." "And how pretty you both look together." "But have you asked yourself, Alais, why your husband has been so cold to you the past few months?" "Oriane." "Because it was my bed he was sharing." "It was my body he wanted, not yours." "Tell me it's not true, not with her." "Do you love her?" "No." "No, I love you." "No." "If you were a man, you would not leave this room alive." "If I were a man, I don't suppose we'd be in this position." "On my honor, I swear to God... one day I will kill you for this." "Alais?" "Alais!" "Loyal brotherhood of the Noublesso Veritable, tomorrow night, after nearly eight hundred years, the Grail will finally pass to us." "Each of you, when you took the oath that binds you to the Noublesso, was made a promise in return." "I swore that I would make you rich beyond your wildest dreams and grant you power far outstripping the reach of ordinary men." "Who amongst us has not raged against the petty span of our mortal lives?" "Who has not dreamed of defying death?" "Tomorrow night, in the sacred cave built by our ancestors..." "I will make that dream a reality." "I failed Harif." "The Book of Numbers is also lost." "Oriane betrayed me." "The Book of Words?" "I have it with me." "I am sorry about your father." "He was a good man." "I can never return to the Chateau Comtal." "There's nothing left for me there, no one I can trust." "What about Guilhem du Mas?" "There's no one." "You must get to Harif in the mountains." "As long as you hold one book, the secrets of the Grail are safe." "First we must make you well again." "Oh, I will be." "Messenger approaching!" "The Abbot of Citeaux is offering safe conduct for a parley." "The Northerners are suing for peace." "Forgive me, Messire, why now?" "They know the strength of our walls, Guilhem." "They could batter at them for a thousand years and still the city would not fall." "They also know thirst and disease must drive us out in the end." "They came for a quick victory, not a long siege." "Our southern summers are too hot for their northern blood." "Now, who will accompany me to the parley?" " You have my sword, Messire." " Good man." "Messire, let me join the party." "With respect, Dame Oriane, this is not a woman's office." "My father had no sons, but I am willing to play a man's part." "If the Crusaders need some pledge of your good intentions, let them take me as a hostage." "We cannot ask you to take so dangerous a risk." "Even these barbarians would not harm a woman of noble blood." "Intendant Pelletier would be proud of his daughter today." "Thank you, Messire." "Your men must disarm." "Shall we begin?" "There is much to discuss." "The only thing to discuss is your surrender." "Take him." "What is the meaning of this?" "Our safe passage is guaranteed in the terms of the parley." "Only God's justice is guaranteed." "This is against every law of chivalry and honor." "Heretics do not deserve the normal courtesies of war." "A message has already been dispatched to the city." "Raymond-Roger Trencavel will be executed unless the gates are opened before the night is out." "Carcassonne  is ours." "Get him out of my sight." "And him too!" "Get him out of my sight!" "Well, my lady?" "I have two of the secret books that you're looking for." " And the third?" " Still within the walls of Carcassonne." "But under the right terms, I'll help you find it." " What terms?" " If I deliver what you seek, you'll take me with you as your wife when you return to the north." "And what of your family, your people?" "I care nothing for them." "I accept." "I will make you my wife." "The garrison has surrendered to save Viscount Trencavel's life." "All citizens are to be expelled." "There is to be no persecution of the Cathars?" "Only exile." "Everyone, Christian, Jew or Cathar, all must leave." "No one can take anything with them." "Thank God your father didn't live to see Carcassona in Northern hands." "Guilhem du Mas and your sister were amongst the prisoners taken." "At least she can do us no further harm." "What is important now is protecting the last book." "Who is this?" "My Aunt." "She suffers from drumstick.{*not sure}" "What's this?" "What's this?" "Hold him up." "You idiot!" "Up!" "Move!" "I should have killed you the first time." "Now, tell me, has the lady Alais left the city?" "Tell me." "We were worried about you." "No need." "I can look after myself." "Sajhe..." "Why don't you go and get some firewood." "It will be cold tonight." "You... will need this." "It will show you the way to Los Seres, where Harif will be waiting for you." "I cannot make the journey with you." "My strength is exhausted." "I have... understood... how few causes are worth sacrificing your life for." "Not even faith?" "What right has one man to force his religion on another?" "Is the world the better place for all its martyrs?" "God is not some pagan creature demanding sacrifice." "He doesn't need us to kill or die for him." "Teach Sajhe to love life." "He has a special destiny." "You must help him to discover it." "Promise me this." "I promise." "There will be time for grief later." "But for now we need to think about tomorrow." "I'm with child." "I'll protect you... both." "I promise." "Renounce your claim to Carcassonne... and I will let you leave." "Be sensible, man." "This land is mine now." "You could rule for a thousand years, this land will never be yours." "Leave." "Leave while you have the chance." "I choose death." "Step forward." "Kneel." "Turn around." "Show this man some respect." "Have you made your peace with God?" "I have." "Have you?" "I said, turn away!" "It is my solemn duty to inform you that Viscount Raymond-Roger Trencavel... died of a fever this morning." "With his dying breath, he begged me to protect his people and to rule in his place." "After much prayer, I have decided to accept this grave and historic burden." "The war is over, but the crusade will not end until every last Cathar heretic is wiped from the face of the earth!" " God save France!" " God save France!" "God save the Pope!" "God save the Pope!" "Lord God, grant me strength... to fight the blasphemous Anti-Christs, in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost." "Deliver me from temptation." "Monsieur Baillard..." "You were waiting for me." "I've waited a very long time, Alice." "I want to understand what's happening to me." "Well, there are some things that are strangely beyond man's understanding." "I'm not religious, and I don't believe in ghosts." "But I know that Alais and I are connected." "Oh, you are directly related." "Yeah, I saw the family tree in my aunt's house." "Yes, I hoped you'd find that." "Come." "We should talk." "If you have sensed Alais near you, it is because we carry our past with us in our blood, in our bones." "All our lives, our common histories are intertwined." "You know so much about her." "I'm a historian." "It's my job to give a voice to the dead." "What does the labyrinth mean?" "I've seen this ring before, in the cave." "Alais had it, didn't she?" "Yves Biau sent it to me, just before he was killed." "I saw her in the fire." "Did she die in that terrible way?" "So many questions, Alice." "But I sometimes wonder if you're ready for the answers." "I'm ready." "What do you know of the Grail?" "The Holy Grail?" "It's the chalice that Christ drank from at the Last Supper." "It's a fable." "The Grail is real." "Not the Holy Grail of Christian mythology, but something much more ancient." "It's not a chalice, not an object at all." "But..." "It does have the power to prolong life... by hundreds of years." "That is the truth that lies at the heart of the labyrinth." "You are welcome here, Alais." "Your grandmother was a beautiful soul." "The world is poorer for her passing." "Thank you." "This is my servant..." "Friend." "Rixende." "I see you are with child." "A few weeks only." "How do you know?" "In my long life, I have seen many expectant mothers." "Come inside." "You must rest." "I have kept the book safe." "This cave will be yours to protect." "Very good." "And that one?" " Bertrande." " Bertrande." "Very good." "Now see if you can write your own name." "Come." "Try." "They've found us." "Harif!" "Alais..." "You must take  my place." "You are the navigator." "But I'm not..." "I'm not ready." "You will know when the moment comes." "I can't replace you." "I can't." "I can't replace you." "You already have." "You were chosen  a long time ago." "Harif was over 500 years old when he died." "He believed the long life the Grail brings should be used to bear witness, to remind us all of our common history." "We have a long journey ahead of us." "We must go." "Where?" "Oh, I think you know where." "Soon you will understand the eternal truth of the Grail." "You're crazy." "God!" "Paul, a small change of plan." "Meet me at the car park at the Pic de Soularac in an hour." "Shelagh O'Donnell said she would wait for us in the cave." "I want to talk to you first." "You should know there's someone else involved in this." "A guy called Will." "He was the one that showed me the labyrinth in Marie-Cecile's house." "Is he a friend of hers?" "Her lover." "You wish he was yours." "No." "I mean, I don't know." "I've only just met him." "Maybe he'll prove worthy of you." "Only time will tell." "You never finished Alais's story." "Alais and the others lived for a year in the fortress of Montsegur." "However, the crusaders were taking control of the south, and eventually the day came when the invasion reached them." "As the Cathars were rounded up, they were offered a last chance of freedom, provided they recanted." "Many refused and chose death instead." "Alais's maid, Rixende, was one of them." "You're heretics and you'll pay the price!" "Renounce!" "It's your chance." "Recant." "Rixende, please." "You cannot do this." "Renounce your faith." "Look, look, I've put these pages in here to make it look like the book, so just before I jump into the fire," "I will show it to them, and they will think that it's burned." "They will think that it's gone." "They won't look for you anymore." "It will give you a chance to escape." " I cannot let you do such a thing." " Why not when I'm to die anyway?" "You don't have to die." "You could renounce your faith." "No." "I've made my choice." "I want to die in my faith." "Look, I must let the fire do its work before I call to Oriane." "I will pray to God for strength." "I forbid it." "I have lived as a servant, Dame." "Please, let me decide when I want to die." "May God take you in his arms today." "I will never forget you." "Be happy for me, Dame." "Sing, damn you!" "Sing them into silence!" " Oriane!" " Alais?" "Oriane!" "Alais!" "Esclarmonde said there is no religion worth dying for." "She's right." "Would you deny your faith?" "I'll tell the Inquisition whatever they want to hear." "It's of no importance to me." "All that matters is Bertrande and you." "You must know that I love you." "I've always loved you, ever since I was a boy." " I'm married, Sajhe." " To a man who betrayed you." "To the father of my child." "Can we not just continue to be the friends we have always been?" "Please." "Was it worth it?" "Was their faith worth dying for?" "Only God can answer that." "But I have worked all my long life to ensure that their names and their courage will never be forgotten." " Is the book safe?" " Yes." "As soon as night falls, make your way down the mountain." "Bertrande and I will be waiting for you." " Name?" " Sajhe de Servian." "Are you a good servant of the Holy Roman Catholic Church?" "I am." "Many heretics have come before us lying to save their skins." "I'm not lying." "I don't believe you." "Put him with the rest." "Why?" "I said I believe!" "What's your name?" "Bertrande." "Bertrande?" "Bertrande what?" "She's with him, De Servian." "I was told today Alais has a child." "The father is Sajhe de Servian, a member of the garrison." "My virtuous sister had a bastard by that low-born ruffian." "What of it?" "His grandmother was the witch Esclarmonde." "They were all in league to protect the books." "Perhaps they still are." "The book burned with your sister." " Alais was never a Cathar." "Why would she die with them?" " To defy you." "Perhaps it was a trick." "You watched her roasting." "The Grail has driven you mad, woman." "Even if Alais is dead, perhaps she gave the book to her daughter." "Well, go and look, then." "Because I am done with the Grail." "And De Servian?" "If that's what you want, I will send someone to kill him, my dear." "Let's check the other side." "Which one is Bertrande de Servian?" "Do you know what you're going to do?" "You're going to take me to the Grail cave." "Where is Oriane?" "Compound." "Searching for a girl." "Her sister  and Sajhe's daughter." "When you burn in Hell, remember it was Guilhem Du Mas who sent you there." "You know..." "There's a way home.{*not sure}" "I'll take you to her." "What is this about?" "Shelagh is waiting for us Comat the cave." "Shelagh O'Donnell is dead." "What are you talking about?" "She would never try to blackmail me." "She was too weak." "So you forced her to make that call." "You're paranoid." "Your childish devotion to the Catholic Church always concerned me." "I couldn't think how it fitted, but then I realized  you don't want to preserve the Grail, you want to destroy it." "The Grail is a heresy, an offence against true religion." "You have a special destiny, Alice, that lies in the cave." "But it will require a choice." "You can always turn back if you wish." "Follow me." "They've discovered the Grail cave." "Wait for my word." "No, you can't go in." "It's a sacred place." "Get up." "Search him." "See if he has the other book" " Let her go, Oriane!" "I knew your death was a trick." "Alais!" "Mama!" " I'll go." "I'll save your daughter." " Our daughter." "Bertrande is our daughter." "Oriane... r." "Please." "Please let her go." "Our father gave me the secret." "I..." "I cannot betray it." " You never knew, did you?" " Knew what?" "Pelletier was not my father." "That's why he hated me." "He blamed me for our mother's sin." "But I killed him." "I poisoned him." "May God forgive you." "I have two books." "Now give me the third." " In exchange for my daughter." " I have no desire to kill her, but I will." "Give it to me." "Run." "Run!" "I love you." "Daughter..." "You're shivering." "Where is the final book?" "Tell me." "No, Oriane." "I won't ask again." "If you kill me, you'll never know." "Tell me!" "Sajhe de Servian," "Your child's father." "He has the final book." "Here." "I am a man of my word." "Forgive me." "I forgave you so long ago." "Every time I looked down at Bertrande, all I could see was you." " It's light." " Someone is here." "Will!" "She's prettier than I thought, but I'm disappointed in you, Will." " You could have done better." " Like who, you?" "I don't think so." "Give me the ring, or I'll shoot your boyfriend." "Give it to me." "What is wrong with her?" "The grail is amongst us." "I was stabbed like her." "It's me, isn't it?" "I'm the key." "The grail flows through me." "Just as it did with Alais." "Harif before her." "When the books and the true navigator are reunited, the grail must be present." "The grail is mine." "Give it to me, or I'll shoot you." "As soon as Alice entered the cave, the grail was present." "It's been with us all the time." "She is the navigator, not you." "If you don't give me the grail, she's next." " What do I do?" " Just follow the path of the labyrinth." "It's long life you seek." "The grail will do the rest." "But I warn you, you're not the navigator." "There will be terrible consequences." "What will happen to her?" "She will be granted the countless years she craves, but she will grow old in an instant." "She will bitterly regret her decision." "But she made it freely." "I was not so fortunate." "Alais made my choice for me." "Hey..." "Take my hand." " It's too late for us, Sajhe." " No." "I can help you." "We can get help for you." "They can help you." "There's only one way of helping me now, Sajhe." "You must take the power of the grail." "Look after Bertrande." "Esclarmonde asked me to help you live." "Let me keep that promise." "Sajhe?" "You were Sajhe." "Yes." "You'll do great things with your power." "Tell our story." "The massacre of our people." "Help us to live again." "I did it for her." "And for the land I loved." "But had I known what it means to wander this world alone for so long," "I would have refused." "But you succeeded, Sajhe." "You did what Alais asked of you." "You bore witness." "You told the truth." "And the truth  will set you free." "What must I do?" "The books." "You must take the books." "You do not need to be afraid." "Step by step, you'll make your way." "Goodbye... my friend." "I loved her." "And if the gods are good, then I shall finally see her again." "What shall I do now?" "Do I have to take the grail?" " Should I become the navigator?" " Alice..." "Choose love." "The mountain can keep your secret now." "Alice, come on." "I couldn't break it." "I couldn't break it, I'm sorry." "I know." "I know." "Come on!" "We have to go." "Is it over?" "We can rest." "Guilhem?" "Guilhem?" "I am here, my love, by your side." "Always." "Alais, I have endured the long life you gave me with emptiness in my heart, an emptiness that has spread until it became bigger than my heart itself." "But now I see, at last, what you always knew, that the true grail lies not in the books, but in the love handed down from generation to generation." "The truth lies all about us, in the stones," "in the rocks, in the changing pattern of the seasons." "Through the shared stories of our past, we will never die." "Montsegur was one of the most significant of all the Cathar castles." "When the crusade started in 1209, it was a place that became a refuge, a place of great bravery, and in the end, a place of great tragedy." "You might find this very hard to believe, but nearly 400 people lived in these walls and just outside of them..." "I should warn you that I've just come out of a really bad relationship." "Yeah..." "Me too."
