"Ruda!" "Ruda!" "What the hell!" "Want me to show you how to move?" "Lazy ass!" "Ruda." "Good morning." "You two drones." "You two were looking for each other, eh?" "Look at the quality." "Could hold an ox on a leash." "But Vaclav, this is not my cup of tea." "Go, finish it." "Now, look who we have here!" "Got you, Vaclav!" "Not yet." "Bastards." "It's me, the gamekeeper's wife." "Mr.mayor, my husband has not come back from the woods." "What do I do with the kids?" "What if he got killed there?" "Goddamit, missis, you're right." "You had every right to fear." "Look what they did to him." "You won't take the roebuck from us!" "Ruda!" "He doesn't feel it anymore." "Serves him right." "For being a stuck-up." "Vaclav, let's go!" "Go!" "Shit." "What good is a roebuck to us now?" "Move it!" "Left his mark on me." "The bastard." "Oh my god." "I'm such a fool." "Oh my god." "The gamekeeper?" "How should I know?" "I was sleeping." "Say it again?" "What?" "The sooner we'll be home in bed, the better for us." "Quickly." "Hey, are you blind?" "Good evening." "...evening." "Look at them." "You little brats." "Holy Mother of Svatahora, what a scare, I'm still shaking." "Quiet, you, these are Ruda and Vaclav Kala." "I guess they were messing with the gins again." "Yeah, I know Vaclav." "Damn old man." "And you?" ""Good evening, mr.Cepelka"." ""my pleasure"." "You flunkey." "Well we met them, didn't we?" "So I just said hello, alright?" "What's wrong with that?" "One who sleeps, does not walk in the woods." "It's in vain, my friend." "We're in it now." "Both of us." "Come." "I gotta hide this somewhere." "Come on!" "Of course, my mom saw me, straight away." ""Where are you going?" she says." "Just for a walk, I said." "If she only knew it is for good." "I didn't say goodbye either." "What good is it, anyway?" "I wonder if the police have been to our house yet?" "Depends on whether they found him." "Ruda, how do they do it?" "Do they have a dog?" "Sure they do." "Come on." "Come on, you wimp." "Let them try to catch us." "Mhm, I respect that." "It belonged to the gamekeeper." "Better than my knife." "You bet." "They won't get us, my friend." "Remember that ..." "Podub." "The one who killed a girl in Hurky." "They've been looking for him for two years." "But they got him in the end." "He let them catch him." "Bad conscience." "That's what it was." "Look at them, suckers." "Enjoying their trip." "Damn townies." "They'll find the gamekeeper anyway." "That's a different story." "Dead people don't hide." "Like we do." "The dead want to be seen." "Not all of them." "There are some dead, who hide themselves." "Like those who commit suicide." "Hide away in the attic." "Or in a trunk of a tree." "And they find them after a long long time." "Ruda, how can anyone do that?" "How can one hang himself, on a beatiful day?" "There are such cases." "They want to show off." "To ruin the day for the others." "Hm, that's some weird talk we're having, Ruda." "Nothing ever ruins my day." "Look at him!" "Townie!" "If you look at it from this side, Vaclav, we're on a trip too." "The nights taste like wine." "Nothing to do." "Flowers in bloom ..." "Those rich people would pay anything to live in the woods." "To do what they want." "But they are scared." "A madman!" "Run away!" "You see, who is the boss here?" "Vaclav?" "Yeah?" "Let's make an oath." "Whatever happens." "we won't leave each other." "You know we won't, Ruda." "I swear." "It must be the gamekeeper's funeral now." "Vaclav Kala." "Ruda Aksamit." "Vaclav Kala." "Ruda Aksamit." "Vaclav Kala." "Ruda Aksamit." "What are you waiting for, Vaclav?" "Come at once." "Ruda, they will miss us back home." "Sure they will." "And we'll make it to the papers." "You mean the newspaper?" "The radio?" "Certainly." "The whole village is astonished." "The..." "The gamekeeper, Ruda, was not a big deal for us." "But we are no ordinary people anymore." "Not just like that." "We aren't." "You cannot compare that." "Yeah, we should have been born at those times." "Robber barons, you see?" "Now that was something." "We could have been the masters of it all." "Well, our day is gone." "Ruda, please, don't." "Leave them alone." "Stop it, will you?" "You're leaving traces." "At least we won't be forgotten." "Look, my friend we're worth more than crawling through the weeds." "They will hear about us." "I can promise you that." "Look." "What about that one?" "Shall we take his bags?" "Let's wait." "Let's see what else the day brings." "There is someone." "God bless you, young men." "Not easy, being a robber baron here." "With a great ding-dong, ding-dong." "Gloria oracionibus..." "With a great ding-dong, ding-dong." "Gloria oracionibus..." "Ding-dong." "Gloria oracionibus..." "Stop it!" "God bless you, reverend." "God bless you too, boys." "May God bless you." "Come on." "How is it going, miss Andulka?" "My friend here says your name is Marenka." "And I say it's Tonicka." "I bet you are Ruzenka." "So come on, tell us!" "Take us with you, so we don't get lost." "We don't know it here." "What a chick and she prefers that old man." "Excuse me, sir..." "Nothing." "Again." "Next time I'll hit them in the face, straight away." "Boy, you look like you've just excaped from the chains." "Well, you look the same." "Vasek!" "Hey, Vasek!" "Do you want me to get in there for you?" "Ok, I'm coming." "Move it." "Hurry up." "Don't you climb in the hen coop with little Mirecek again!" "Don't you dare." "Watch out so that he doesn't fall to the water." "Hey!" "Hey!" "And leave the hutch alone, understood?" "Alright." "And water the linen for me!" "Come on!" "Climb in and be quiet." "Vasek, let's go, we're waiting!" "Take the hutch!" "Coming, guys!" "That's different from the forest air." "So comfortable." "Shut up and move it." "Wait." "Take the table-cloth." "And the sheet too." "Throw it on the ground." "Oh damn..." "Can't you be quiet for a while?" "Come on." "Come." "We'll go through the back." "Let's go!" "Hey, what a surprise for the farmer." "Someone else would burn the house down." "Wait..." "Close your eyes." "Jesus, Ruda." "Did you find it there?" "Yeah." "You have a way of finding these." "Tell you what..." "Let's make a deal." "I've got a gun already." "Give me your boots and this gun is yours." "Well, Vaclav?" "You're afraid you'll lose?" "Well, it's good to have a piece but what about the ammo?" "See how generous I am." "And these are yours too, as an extra." "Right." "And there's something more, my friend." "I found them in the coffee mug." "I found just a few coins." "Ruda, you are just lucky." "Lucky?" "Hm." "You bet I am." "They fit perfectly." "You better give the coins to me too." "I'll look after the money." "Just wait my friend," "We'll have some good time together." "Where to, my boys?" "To the dance!" "I'm not telling you, beaver." "We know how to handle gamekeepers, don't we?" "What's wrong?" "I don't like this." "Don't worry, Vaclav, we have the clothes." "He has no idea, who we are." "Yeah, that's it, Ruda." "But what if he has ... an idea?" "Well, let him have it." "It's time for us to move." "I knew we were born for something better." "And the girls always liked me." "You've got to give me that." "No countrywomen, those do not count." "I was lucky, my friend." "With fine ladies." "Really?" "Sure." "I was in Prague, some time ago." "A friend of mine took me there." ""Ruda Aksamit", he says." ""Let me show you something you've never seen"." ""Go ahead", I say." "And he took me to this place." "With pile carpets." "And sofas everywhere." "And ladies, sitting on the sofas." "Smoking expensive cigars, sipping expensive drinks," "and me?" "Nothing." "So I picked one, a dark one." ""I can't give you my real name, sir", she says." ""Just that they call me..."" ""Valerie"." "And she's from a well-off family." "And you?" "Me?" "I'll never forget her." "Goddamn life." "Now, when our luck was getting better." "But why did we do that?" "What the hell came across your mind?" "Why did we have to run without paying?" "They'll be after us now." "The clothes will save us, Vaclav." "The money too." "I'm not scared." "But nobody gets away with this." "What do you talk about?" "You know what?" "Let's find her." "Let's find Valerie." "There are so many people in Prague." "Everyone can get lost in the crowd." "She's just a whore in Prague." "What about it?" "She's free." "Just like we are." "We'll find a way, the three of us." "I'd have to think about it." "You see," "I'd have to write her first..." "Ruda?" "You made it up, didn't you?" "Shut up." "If you want to, let's find her." "Now." "Hurry." "Write her a letter, Ruda." "Write:" "Dearest miss Valerie," "Only now, in the forest so wild, my desire for you has woken up again." "But I say," "No, Valerie, I can't go on." "I can't go on like this." "And I am bringing my friend with me, by the name of Vaclav Kala." "He is a kind, sensitive man." "Will you give him some of your attention, please." "I'll write her." "Just shut up." "Ruda." "Hello." "Hi." "Dear God." "This was..." "Mr.Libstensky, this stop, was it Dvory?" "Of course it was." "I've forgotten about you completely." "So it was, already." "How do I get home now?" "And the apples ..." "Thank you very much, thank you." "Do you know them?" "Can you see him?" "That's a different stone than in our quarry." "They build bridges from it." "They build pavements." "That's a different stone." "Do you have to cough so loud?" "Sorry, I can't help it." "Quiet!" "Something is here." "Quiet!" "Warm welcome, gentlemen." "Good morning to you." "What's up?" "Don't go any closer." "You two rascals." "You did something bad, didn't you?" "So young." "Oh, young man is suffering from a cough." "A little ill, aren't we?" "What do you care?" "Yes, it's bad in the woods." "Too bad." "But the prison is worse, my friends, right?" "Something bad?" "What did we do?" "Come on, I know your kind." "You don't tell me anything." "I say, it's bad in the woods." "Just wait and see what's waiting for you, you morons." "Who do you call a moron?" "Don't come closer, or..." "You are a moron." "Both of you are." "Get out of here!" "You'll have it up to your neck, suckers!" "You are a moron yourself." "And a nitwit!" "I should have shot him." "That would do it." "I am too kind-hearted." "God knows what he did." "I'd love to know it myself." "Wait." "He must have a record." "But they'll get him." "They'll get him for sure." "Someone was here before." "A long time ago." "Here, have a smoke." "It'll help your lungs." "What's wrong with you again?" "I don't know." "I have to lie down." "There is some illness coming, it seems." "Damnit." "I don't need any of that now." "You should have stayed at home with that." "I'd like to go home." "I can't help it." "Alright." "A glass of rum would help you." "It would for sure." "What's wrong with you?" "What should I do?" "No..." "No..." "No..." "Not me." "Vaclav." "I didn't kill him." "Stop shouting." "What did you dream?" "What did you say about the gamekeeper?" "Nothing." "What about the gamekeeper?" "I hope so." "Here, have a smoke." "Vaclav." "He is the one" "Who was there with me yesterday" "He is the one" "Who wanted my love to be his" "And I told him" "You are too young" "Better go home" "Enjoy your youth" "Forget, my boy" "Forget about your love" "Forget about me" "Me, old whore" "Ruda!" "Ruda..." "Ruda?" "Ruda, don't leave me here!" "Ruda!" "Ruda!" "Oh my god, why?" "Are you a friend of mine?" "There's nothing wrong with me!" "Look," "I'm running." "I want to go with you." "Ruda..." "You want to be responsible for my life too?" "Ruda, you swore, we'd never part." "Well..." "It's..." "I thought it would be better for you." "Here." "It's more difficult for the two of us." "They know about us." "You'd be better of by yourself." "Shut up." "Here." "Jirinka, Jirinka!" "Where are you climbing?" "Come down!" "Girls, I saw them." "There were two men." "Why the hurry?" "What a beautiful day, miss Rous." "I'm taking this through the forest." "Your eyes are all red." "You were not crying, were you?" "I was sewing the whole night." "Beautiful dress." "But it would suit you better." "Not for me." "I've had one already and that's enough." "Why so bitter, miss." "You are still young." "Those countrywomen are not worth it, all your hard work." "That's not up to me to decide." "I hope she'll be happy wearing this." "One never knows." "But with you, it's different." "One could take you right to the altar." "That's what you think." "Goodbye." "Goodbye." "Don't be angry with me." "Vaclav, let's go." "Come on." "Leave the dress alone!" "What, dress?" "Come here!" "No mercy, Vaclav." "Help!" "You..." "Help, is there anyone here?" "Help!" "Ruda, stop it!" "Run away!" "Quick!" "Go back." "Wait, Ruda." "We'd better not go there." "Beer and drinks." "That's what we need." "You better go." "But we'll drink it in the woods." "Hm." "I'll wait here." "Give me some brandy." "The drinks are served outside today." "I want a whole bottle." "No shots." "Not here." "Why don't you serve the gentleman?" "Can't you hear him?" "He wants a bottle." "We have rum, rye whisky and kummel." "Anything will do." "The red one." "Sour cherry brandy." "Now, that's a good one." "What a drink." "So sweet." "But so expensive." "Alright, give me that one." "Oh crap." "Young man is well-off, right?" "Must have been a good crop there, right?" "Oats?" "How much is it?" "36,60." "Oh man." "You can get the whole regiment drunk for that." "We'd better call the fire brigade then." "And some cigarettes." "And the green bottle too." "Sartresia." "That's 38." "Oh, the nature is rich." "And generous to those who cultivate it well." "Pour me one." "And one for him." "God bless you for that." "May you find a pretty girl tonight." "A honest one." "That's him." "I never saw them here." "They're not from here." "Have you seen the cuts on their hands?" "They have a record." "They have killed the gamekeeper." "They've been wandering around here." "It's the Lord's wrath." "It's said they kille a gamekeeper over there." "Where are you from, sucker?" "Get out of here, strangers." "It's true." "It's him, the murderer." "Go, Ruzenka." "Run to the police." "They have been after them for a long time." "You think I'll let you look after this?" "Maybe they'll get them today." "The two are going to be hanged." "Ruda." "Damnit!" "Stop!" "Show me." "You are a wimp, Ruda." "Oh man." "I missed this." "Give it to me." "And the money." "I'll take it myself." "I will keep these three hundred." "No matter what." "Now let's find a place." "Where noone will watch our glory." "A railway restaurant." "Welcome, ladies and gentlemen." "Good one." "But too close to the track." "Stupid people." "They'll ruin everything." "So where do we hide our pub?" "It's not so much about the pub." "Right, let's die here." "Give it to me." "Right." "It's beautiful here." "There is a celebration in the village." "They've got the crops under the roof." "Rednecks." "Only if they stopped banging into those rails." "Morons." "Stupid morons." "Imagine being there." "Above all this." "Here, Vaclav." "Drink." "Or would you prefer to drink with them?" "No way." "Look how hard I've worked." "Did I ever get to enjoy my life?" "You tell me." "All those stones I have carried." "Tons of them." "Show me a worker who can do that." "But it's over now." "For good." "You know what, Ruda?" "My mother once hit me with a spade." "On the field." "Listen, friend..." "I've been beaten with a belt, a cane, a clog," "Whatever was in father's reach." "They beat me after work, during lunch, even in sleep." "What for, I don't know." "You are my friend, Vaclav." "God knows what came over me." "You know I actually like you." "I like you too." "Remember how we caught those three hares?" "Of course I do." "When was it?" "Christmas." "Don't you know?" "Yeah." "Christmas." "Vaclav." "I lied to you." "About Valerie." "I didn't have enough money at that time." "She kicked me out, like a dog." "These three hundred, I'll buy her with that." "A maple leaf has fallen" "On the two of us" "Come, my darling, come and walk with me" "to the yard" "Come my darling" "That bitch Valerie!" "I'll make her see!" "Tell me Vaclav, am I worse than the others?" "No you're not." "Of course you're not." "Jesus Christ!" "Come, let's get away." "Ruda." "There will be some beauty left in the world." "No matter what happens to us." "Bullshit." "What beauty?" "It's useless." "I've never seen any." "What's beautiful about it?" "You can crush it in your hand." "Or a beast will come and eat it." "Whom is it good for, anyway?" "It's all fake." "Bare ass." "All beauty can be corrupted." "Stupid butterfly." "You blow on it and it's gone." "The fun is over." "Alright." "This is the beauty." "There." "This is where it lies." "What's so special here?" "Everything goes wrong." "This one?" "Goddamnit!" "If I had the time, I'd cut all this colourful crap to pieces!" "To pieces!" "All of it!" "All!" "Where is my cap?" "Where is my cap?" "Where is it?" "What were you doing, Ruda?" "What did you do?" "We have to run." "What?" "Where?" "Yesterday, remember?" "Remember?" "In the shed." "Where we were drinking." "Where is my cap?" "Ruda, get up!" "You killed a policeman!" "What policeman?" "I saw it in my own eyes!" "You shot him." "Me?" "Did I?" "Ruda..." "I know we were in the shed." "Let me think." "I've got such a headache." "Let's have a look in there." "Please, Ruda..." "My cap with my money is there!" "I'm not going back!" "We can't go back!" "It's too late!" "Ruda..." "It probably is." "Ruda!" "Lucky we found the water." "We are." "I was so thirsty." "We'll be alright again." "If only we had some tobacco." "If only we were out of the woods." "What do you mean, out?" "I don't fear anything anymore." "You coward." "I don't care anymore." "Let's get out of here." "Come on." "Where did we end up now?" "Hey, let's not squat like hens." "I wish it was dark already." "We'll go around." "No, Ruda." "The gamekeeper..." "I've never heard of a deer shot by a pistol, you twit." "But it was white." "White." "Ruda, there's something strange here." "As if I was here before." "Goddamnit." "What's wrong?" "Can't you see it?" "Don't you ever look where you're going, you moron?" "How is this possible?" "How is this possible?" "How?" "Because we are stupid." "Stupid and tired." "Let's have some water, since we're here." "Vaclav, did you tie the cup back on?" "No." "We're going in circles." "We are, Ruda." "We are." "We have no aim now." "There is only one aim now for us." "Where, Ruda?" "Which one?" "I don't like it here." "What can you do about it?" "This clay is better than gallows." "Ruda Aksamit!" "Vaclav Kala!" "Ruda Aksamit!" "Vaclav Kala!" "Ruda?" "The gamekeeper wants them to get us alive." "Both of us." "What did that person call?" "I don't know." "I didn't understand him." "Who was it there, by the spring?" "Stop asking about it." "How the hell should I know?" "At least..." "What day is it today?" "I don't know." "Saturday, perhaps." "Father." "Don't give him any drinks." "For my hard-earned money ?" "You cannot berate me here." "We're not in the manorial forest." "You crawl out of our sight and be quiet." "I warn you:" "I know a lot about you." "What do you know?" "I'm not arguing with you." "You just go on about this because we are ordinary people." "I'm not stealing your hares." "Or, you'd have to prove that." "Shut up!" "It's not about hares here." "You know it too well." "You have killed me, Ruda Aksamit." "Get up Vaclav, Vaclav!" "This is good." "We're invisible." "Yeah, what a mess." "God knows who can shoot us in this." "Come." "This looks like a sea." "I'd rather be over it." "On the other side." "Ruda, look." "One Crown." "This means luck." "Shall we toss it?" "If we get to the other side or not." "How do you plan to get there?" "There is a boat." "Oh crap." "These are after us." "Rudolf Aksamit!" "Vaclav Kala!" "Now we're in it." "Rudolf Aksamit!" "Vaclav Kala!" "They're shooting at us!" "Easy." "They don't have us yet." "Ruda." "What is it?" "Why do they shoot at him?" "He's dead already." "It's strange, Ruda." "So many stars." "I know that one." "You can see it from under the pear tree in our yard." "That one's mine." "That's bullshit, Vaclav." "Why do you need all the stars?" "What are they good for?" "If there was only a half of them, still it would be too much for anyone to count." "What are they good for?" "If only for looking at them, then they could be a little smaller." "And a little closer, don't you think?" "That's useless." "Who needs all those worlds, all those spaces?" "When... this one world... is too much already." "It's nice to look at them, I admit that but I don't like the plenty of them." "Who can prove me that our world is not repeated somewhere?" "On another star, like here." "Maybe there is another Vaclav, unhappy just like me, one who has killed the gamekeeper." "Looks up like from behind bars and thinks the same as me." "How cruel is that." "How can anyone creat something like that, so easily?" "And he's laughing at us." "Ruda." "Don't sleep!" "Say something!" "I can take mine, in the end." "But it's awful, that someone out there makes the worlds his toys." "What will all the Vaclavs say to that?" "All the others." "Since I am the only one guilty." "They are not." "It's not their fault." "They are not guilty." "Poor boys." "And I am the poorest of them." "The gamekeeper will see what he has caused." "Vaclav Kala!" "Did they call me?" "I'm cold." "Vaclav Kala!" "They called me." "Right." "It's my turn now." "They have avoided a punishment." "That should not happen."
