Right there.
I
stop. What job is he there? Why do you want to stop
the man up there?
He's bleeding to death.
Can't stop.
Not here.

and just as guilty as a soldier would be who deserted his post under fire.
Now, in making an example of you, I,
I beg your pardon, sir? I have some wounded outside. I'm looking for the
Oh, yes. Yes, yes. You want the Italian unit. We're the English here, you see.
Yes. Number 207 in the other wing
moved in today.
It
out that way straight ahead.
Thank you.
Sh
what's the girlfriend been doing?
Typical male conceit?
I think they're going to send her back home. That's a dirty shame.
She'll be disgraced. It's regulations.
At least they might let her have her baby here if they send her back.
Now, all her friends will know in her family, she's only herself to blame.
This is War Fergie and she loved him
here they come.
Well, is it necessary for us all to be here at one time?
Get back to your posts,
you will be packed and ready to leave within the hour.
Molly.
Can I help you pack?
I guess so
if you want to,
why? Of course I want to,
couldn't get,
I beg your p
I say she's the only human being in the whole lot of us.
I'm sorry,
Miss Barclay appears to sympathize with one
who has disgraced the uniform we all wear
baby, Rinaldi Federico.
You're filthy.
You want those saxons
you not to clean yourself.
Did you bring me some good cases, baby?
Did you have trouble finding us? No. How do you feel?
Is there going to be an offensive?
Were you on the fire?
Ma don't
know but I worried about you. Yes, I can see how much you've been worrying.
Seven operations today, baby
and one of them was beautiful.
I took the heart out.
It lay in my hand
and it beat like this.
You should have seen it. It was lovely
soon. Rinaldi will be the best surgeon in all the corps
then in all the army
and some day in all of Italy. Why not in all the world? Why not?
You will like it here, baby.
What sort of a town is this? Any girls? Many beautiful English nurses?
No, I mean girls, girls to a house full of them. Another Villa Rosa.
Some of them have never been to the front before
perhaps,
but the nurses are much nicer. The most beautiful is Miss Barley.
I
am in love with her.
Does she know it? And
not yet?
Have you any money.
Yes. Lend the 50 lire.
But
for
I want to make on Miss Barkley the impression of a man of sufficient wealth.
Thank you. You are my great and good friend and financial protector. You are a nurse
and now we will eat and drink and I will take you to meet Miss Barkley. But
you must make for me a good impression upon her.
Now, listen,
but you must,
and you can have a nurse too. There is another one named Miss Ferguson.
She is also very, very nice. No,
no.
First we will eat and drink
and then we'll go and see the girls who have never been to the front before.
Yes.
You know what an American is. Yes.
What is it?
She doesn't know.
Well, I'm an American.
And what are you doing here?
Drinking mostly
you like the uniform
wrong?
I like their language.
Then what were you doing in Italy?
Studying?
Studying what
architecture?
You know what that is?
Yes.
What
you see?
She doesn't know.
I know
neither do I. Oh, you've got too much wine.
It's filthy wine.
It takes the enamel off your teeth and leaves it on the roof of your mouth.
Where was I? Architecture?
Oh, yes.
Look,
I'll explain
this. My dear
is called an arch.
Yeah.
Are you coming?
Hold on
the arch. My dear
is perhaps the oldest of architectural devices,
arch
architecture.
The very word will tell you how inextricably. The two are one in a word. My dear.
Architecture
is the most ancient of the arts, just as yours is the most ancient of the
confessions.
You better put your shoe on, you get cold feet
if you please. I'd like to go. Now, the air raid seems to be over,
gentlemen.
I
am
so.
Oh, I have to worry.
You
think I've been blown away? I didn't know what to think. Nobody saw where you went.
Who's that man?
Well, I don't know. Some lunatic. Come on.
What if we take the mountains to the north?
Behind them are more mountains and behind those more yet. And we take them all.
Only if the Austrians stop fighting.
One side
must stop,
stop,
go on forever. Like him.
That
for me, your
son, the Lord.
Oh,
the priest want the Austrians to win the war. No, no, it is not true.
But you don't want us to attack.
We must have war. I suppose we have to attack
so many die that way.
But what is death to a Christian?
So,
oh,
don't encourage him fro again.
Frederico.
You are back safe. Hello.
I am so glad he prays, prayed for you, Federico. Every time you go up, he does the same.
I pray for you all.
You are late, baby. How is it up there? Quiet?
You nearly missed the party.
But it is very dull.
But Miss Barkley is here and her friend, Miss Ferguson,
the one you will like come
MS Barkley,
permit
me
to present to you my friend and war brother, Lieutenant Henry,
he has just returned back to the front.
How do you do that?
How are you doing?
And this
is Miss,
how do you do?
How
do you do?
He begins again, that fellow.
Quick. Let us go into the garden
here.
Seven.
You
the,
you know,
one
day
what?
Now
you stay here.
I will find something for us to drink.
Asti
Grappa Vermouth. Which do you like all of them? Then you shall have all of them
and
nice out here,
isn't it?
We seem fated to bump into each other in the dark.
I'm sorry about that.
I mistook you for someone else so I get it.
I'd been drinking. I gathered that too
mad.
Yeah,
you're an American, aren't you?
Yes.
Well, then what are you doing in the Italian army?
It's not really the army. It's
ambulance.
It's very odd though. What you doing?
I don't know. Why did you?
Oh, I joined up in England
and besides the boy I was engaged to, had gone across.
Where is Miss Ferguson? Why don't you go see?
Yes. Do bring her out, Captain Rinaldi
have some.
Thanks.
He saw it.
What for?
Because I'm here with you.
Women prefer him as a rule.
Shall we take a walk?
Yes. Let's,
where is he now?
Who
the boy you're engaged to?
You did?
Oh,
he's killed in the
sun.
Were you engaged? Long
eight years. We grew up together.
Why didn't you marry?
I didn't know what the war was like. Then
if I had it to do over again, I'd marry him
or anything
when I joined up.
I remember having this silly idea that he might come to the hospital where I was
with a saber cut, I suppose. And a bandage around his head shot through the shoulder.
Something picturesque.
This is a picturesque front, not front.
He didn't have a saber cut.
They blew into bits.
What are you thinking about? Now?
How about whiskey?
What about whiskey?
About how nice it is.
And you're nice too.
Hm.
No,
why not? No, I don't.
No, please.
I'm sorry. Did I hurt you?
It's all right.
I'm dreadfully sorry. Really?
I just
couldn't bear the
nurse's evening off aspect of it,
but
I don't mind at all.
Poor man.
You see,
I've been leading a funny sort of life
besides. You're so very beautiful.
You don't have to talk a lot of nonsense. I said, I'm sorry,
we could get along,
couldn't we?
You're sweet.
No, I'm not. Yes, you're a dear.
I'd be very glad to have you kiss me now, if you don't mind,
you are looking for someone.
Have you seen Miss Barkley?
Miss Barkley?
Didn't she go out there with you with Lee?
No. No, but
just a little while ago
I thought I saw her go out to the garden gate with the Lieutenant Henry.
She went out with an officer alone.
Well, perhaps I was mistaken, you know, it is quite dark out there.
Oh, she wouldn't do that.
No.
No, I am sure I was mistaken.
Where is she then?
You're a grand girl.
I'm a crazy girl.
What? To stay out here?
It's nice.
Isn't that enough?
Yeah,
it's nice. I suppose that has to be enough for people who are living as we live
back
home
and courted you and
such a flower
out here. You, it all into one hour.
It's not the way it's got to be out here.
No,
tomorrow morning I've got to go up to the front again
and if a shell got me
and you never saw me again,
then we'd both be sorry that we've been so formal
and waited
the science. What's this? So finding, putting it off,
dragging it out,
giving me your lips tonight
your throat tomorrow. No,
no, wait,
no, please.
No,
Catherine.
Thank
you.
Thanks for the lovely concert.
I hope you are not worried about Miss Barkley.
It's not like her to disappear this way. Perhaps she felt ill and went home alone.
Perhaps. Good night.
Come go.
Why didn't you tell me?
It doesn't matter
if it had to happen. I'd rather it were like this. I
couldn't know in a churchyard under the stars. Well, why not? Why not?
There's a war on and tonight who cares? And tomorrow Who knows?
Mhm.
What did you say your name was
stoppage?
If
you can,
you
knew how I was back home. You'd see the funny side.
Please stop it.
Mm.
Oh,
we blame everything on the wall. But that's rot.
It's something in ourselves.
The lady sat in the public square
and mourned her lost innocence.
Don't be sorry.
I'm not.
I love you.
Oh, darling.
Did you have a nice time? Maybe
you made the progress with her. We're friends if that's what you mean. I mean, uh,
was she nice to you?
Practically speaking? Shut up. I am a man of extreme delicacy, but was she,
will you please shut up
if you want to be a friend of mine? Shut up.
I am your best friend and your war brother.
Then shut up.
Miss Barkley prefers you to me. That is very clear.
But, uh, Miss Ferguson is very nice too.
You like her?
No.
Yeah.
That you, of all people, a
lot of geese. That's what you are.
Silly geese stuffed with bunk about women's part in the war.
We must bring solace to the men who fight, sacrifice ourselves. Give ourselves
if you'd known him for a long time,
I've been in love with him,
but you only met him tonight.
How long must
you know a man before you can love him?
Are you pretending to be in love with that man?
I
think I am Fergie.
I must be,
I couldn't have happened.
You're just another conquest.
One in 100.
You'll probably never see him again.
He said if you'd met me back home,
he'd have corded me,
sent me flowers.
But now
I suppose I won't ever see him again
already.
Will not
turn back back. Yes, back.
Yes,
I
want to see Mr Buckley.
She's on duty.
Wait,
I'm going there.
Why we come back here,
Lieutenant? He knows what he's doing, please. What's wrong with Eddie?
Don't ever get started here. We've got a plenty of time all the
time.
I thought you started. What are you doing here? We come back to see your
Capitano
10 and he forgot something.
Oh,
uh,
you're all right, aren't you?
Yes, I'm all right.
I came to,
I thought,
you see,
I, I'm going to be away for a while
and I didn't want you to think that
I had just gone away.
No, I,
what I mean is
I'd hate to have you feel it
that it wasn't important to me
about,
about us.
I don't exactly know how to say it.
You said it very nicely, dear. Thank you.
No, I don't mean
you mustn't feel will you be gone, mom?
No,
only a few days there's gonna be a show above
above pla,
nothing much. I guess a show
you'll be careful, won't you?
I won't get hit.
Hold it.
Yeah,
it's the same
Anthony.
They say ST Anthony is very useful
to guide you from harm.
I'll take good care of him
and I wish I could kiss you.
He is my friend and a good soldier. I do not like to see him lose his head over a woman.
Aren't you exaggerating
a bit?
I think not.
Couldn't we send her back to the base major?
No, if you could send her away, it would simplify
everything.
Could perhaps Senator Milan.
Excellent, my dear ma, magnificent. No wonder the English are first in diplomacy.
And what did you say her name was?
We won't get anything else to eat once the attack starts.
This is all they give me
starting to eat at the end.
No, we'll all eat together.
Come on, sit down to it.
Thank you.
Yeah, you can
45.
You know, to be.
Yeah.
All you want.
Yeah. Think some cheese of this with it.
Wash it down with wine tonight.
Who goes to the attack?
Mm.
Are salary?
Nobody would attack.
The war would be over.
It's
a big 1.
420.
No. 305. Sounded like a stoner to me, stoner.
That's what I say.
Sure.
How are you
and anything?
Anybody hurt
my leg.
Hold the my I complain.
You were like
it was a score of gun.
I
think
preservations of the skull
and possible fracture of the skull,
multiple superficial wounds of the left and right side,
left and right knee and right foot.
Profound wounds of right knee and foot
incurred. In line of duty. Anti
was, please
come on, lift them up a little more.
Please
all got it.
How do you feel baby?
I know.
What are you doing here? Bonello telephoned to me.
The major gave me permission to come.
No one shall hurt you, baby. I won't let you.
No butcher is going to touch my worker
or Rinaldi can take you and never hurt you.
You must forgive me baby for, for talking so much. But I am.
I'm very moved to see you badly wounded.
How did it happen?
I will see you are decorated for bravery. Perhaps we can get you the Medalia La
Gento but surely the bronze one. Did you carry somebody on your back?
I didn't carry anybody.
I couldn't move. Surely there was something he
tell me what you did.
I was blown up eating cheese.
Don't worry, baby,
I will fix you so that you are as good as you. You will see every day.
I learn to do things smoother quicker.
Soon, very soon
you will be walking again.
I brought a present for you.
You will find it under your blanket next to your heart. It
is a bottle of brandy baby. Very good. Brandy.
The infantry captured it from the Austrians on San Gabrielle.
I have another surprise for you.
Take a deep breath.
Where do you think you will go from here
to the Italian Hospital where they have the male nurses with the beards No,
I will arrange everything with my friend,
the British Major.
You will go to Milan
to the beautiful Miss Barley
that makes you happy.
Think of Rinaldi
left all alone with the war.
No one to make fun of
no one to lend him money while you,
while you were in Milan
with the beautiful Miss Barkley,
making love in Milan
to the chase, Miss Barkley.
Ok.
Look out for the step.
Why do you stop?
I am the superintendent. May I have your medical papers, please?
They're in my coat in the button down pocket.
Take him up those stairs down the corridor. His room is the one at the end.
You show them Julio
who are you?
And the part
you
come follow me
now,
Senor.
We must lift you off the bed.
All right.
But keep my legs straight CS
and
here be some brandy.
It's not allow,
wasn't I wounded? Fighting for the glory of Italy?
You'll find some money in my pocket
as you wish.
So it's you, Ferguson
is Catherine here as if you didn't know.
I believe that's why you got wounded. Where is she? You're to be still?
Here's your chart.
I must take your temperature. Does she know I'm here
under the arm plates
and the diving.
You're lovely.
Are you badly hurt?
You're lovely.
Oh, my poor darling. It's your leg, isn't it? You're the loveliest thing I ever saw.
I have to go now, darling. I can't stay
you'll come back later, but we'll have to be awfully careful.
You've got to come back. I will, when I can tonight
I'll try
somebody's coming
tonight.
I'll take that thermometer now.
Good gracious
pitch. The doctor.
It's a miracle. You're not delirious with such a fever.
I haven't got any fever. Stay quiet, please. It's not what you think.
I
have brought you a few little things and this
is mosquito netting and this is a bottle of
Vermouth.
You like vermouth
and these are English papers. Thank you for that.
It's very good of you to come. Oh, but I mustn't stay long.
They warned me not to tire you. You seem very tired yourself.
I am tired but I have no right to be. You have the war discussed
and I hate the war.
I don't enjoy it
but you do not mind it.
You do not see it.
Oh,
you must forgive me. I know you are wounded. That was an accident.
Still even wounded. You do not see it.
I can tell
I do not see it myself but
I feel it a little.
Come in. Get
well, don't go yet. Father, it's still early.
You are sure the operation in the morning. He should rest. Oh, he's strong.
He has such a lovely temperature. It's always normal.
I'm very proud of his temperature.
Maybe all our Children will have fine temperatures too.
Our Children will probably have beastly temperatures.
Don't mind us father, we're in love.
I know
I could see it in your faces.
You're approved, don't you? Father?
You spoke of Children.
This too. Is the war without the war? You would live married in God's grace,
is it not so?
And you?
Well, I
hadn't thought about it like that, but
yes, I suppose so
in the cleaner
and
be
to
them,
share a
little
deal.
Sw,
will protect what
add
in to
break.
What sound made
about you?
Only
42
men and
father,
are you?
Is that the marriage service
do?
And which is made a la
ha
or
condemned
me
OTSD?
Of course, you realize father that
how many regulations prevent us from marrying?
It's in cat and hall
past t be
a
doctor.
Poor care.
Such a crazy marriage.
At least I'm in white.
No orange blossoms. I can smell them.
No organ music. I can hear it plainly.
Ok.
It was a foolish notion. Perhaps
I have not tried to say you are married
yet. It has made me happy to do this
for now. From my heart, I can say I bless you in his name. Thank you, father.
Goodbye and be happy both of you.
Thank you. So
give my regards to the mess.
I will
and get well soon.
I will come again the next time I am in Milan.
Goodbye. My dear goodbye
is Miss Barkley here.
Uh uh
No,
no,
shut the door.
My dad, please, darling.
We mustn't your operations in the morning. It's our wedding night.
Oh,
darling.
You'll have to take your oil, castor oil. No, you don't take it from me.
I'll take anything from you. Darling.
If you stay.
Oh, darling, darling,
I want what you want. There isn't any me anymore. Just what you want. You sweet.
Didn't I make a lovely wife? Such a lovely wife.
Here. I heart, babe.
No wonder my heart beat.
I'm mad about you.
Yeah,
I
was
so
hi.
Right.
Are you?
Ah,
we will be the, right.
That's the opera. I made my debut in, at the Scholar. They threw benches at it.
That's a lie. Yes, they did. I threw six benches myself. That's not funny.
Oh, no, he's offended.
He'll get over it. That's his sore spot. We always tease him.
You don't care whom you hurt,
don't you get mad too
Catherine? And I were thinking of asking you to our wedding.
What do we
care?
You'll never get married. We will. No, you won't. You'll fight before you'll marry.
Oh, we never fight your time here. We won't fight ever.
You'll die then
fight or die.
That's what people do.
They don't marry. I foy
and I cry.
Maybe you'll be all right. You two
watch out. You don't get her in trouble. I won't get her into trouble. You better not.
Or I'll kill you.
My friend.
What is the matter with it?
She doesn't like me. That's all. Oh, no,
she just likes me more.
Are you on night duty tonight?
Yeah. But you won't care. You'll go right off to sleep.
You wait and see,
darling.
How many other girls have you ever loved?
None?
How many? Really?
How many have you, um,
how you say it
low?
No, you're lying to me.
Of course. No, that's right. You just keep right online. That's what I want you to do.
Were they pretty?
I have never been with anyone. That's right, darling.
What were they like?
I don't know anything about
it.
You're just mine. That's true.
You've never belonged to anyone else.
I don't care if you have though. I'm not afraid of them. Only don't tell me about them.
You never told them you love them, did you? No, I knew you wouldn't.
Oh, darling, I do love you then kiss me.
Why you in the street?
I'll go in first.
So,
what is this? If I may ask what was in it?
That's Kimmel.
That's the best kind. It comes in those bear shaped bottles from Russia and these,
that's brandy wine whiskey. And I've been pitying you for being wounded.
Pity is something that is wasted on you.
If you're so anxious not to go back to the front,
I should think you try something more intelligent,
not self inflicted alcoholism.
I said alcoholism.
And I also say that I'll see your convalescent leave is canceled.
You'll go back to the front tomorrow night.
Yeah.
Have
I time for a drink before the train leaves for the front. Yes.
About 20 minutes in your captain.
Right.
Mhm.
It's a fine room. A lovely room.
It's all right.
The red plush is just the thing.
Those mirrors are very attractive too.
People who go in for vice seem to have very good taste about
it. You're a grand girl.
Oh, darling.
I wish you could do something really sinful.
Everything we do seems so innocent and right.
You're a fine simple girl. I am a simple girl. Nobody. But you ever realized it first.
I thought you were a crazy girl. I was a little crazy at first.
Was that your train? Maybe
it makes up a turn
but it stays in the station here till time to leave.
There's really lots of time.
But at my back I always hear times wicked chariot, hurrying near.
I know that poem is by Marvel.
Oh, it's about a girl who wouldn't live with a man.
Listen,
it's only the rain.
I hate the rain.
I like it.
I'm afraid of the rain.
Afraid why?
Oh,
well, perhaps it's silly.
What? Tell me, no, don't make me tell me
all right.
I'm afraid of the rain because sometimes I see me dead in it.
No,
and sometimes I see you dead in it.
That's more likely. Well, no, darling. Don't say that
that is your train
times. Wing. A chariot.
I'll come with you.
No, please. I don't want you
not, not at the station.
All right. D
how often will you write as often as I can do they read your letters?
They can't read English enough to hurt?
Well, I'll make them very confusing
but not too confusing.
Oh, I should have got you a going away gift,
a whistle to make you feel better in the dark or a sword.
I'm sure we could get a used sword. Very cheap.
Swords aren't very useful at the front. Oh, I see.
They get in the way of your legs when you're running.
I think they might be useful at me.
I'm afraid I have to start, darling.
I hate to leave our fine house.
So do I,
we never stay settled very long in a home, do we?
We will,
I'll have a fine home for you when you come back.
Say I'll come back to Catherine.
I'll come back to Katherine.
I'll always come back.
Maybe this time you'll be hurt just a little in the foot
by the lower of the ear. Oh, no, no, no, I want your ears just the way they are.
Your feet have been hurt over it.
Ok,
good.
Oh, Maria,
remember
also,
hey,
you know,
you
know,
a
good,
not
at
all.
So,
hey,
you know,
I
mean,
yeah,
I want a ticket to Switzerland please. To where
to what town, the nearest one to Italy. That would be Brissago
sign
then give me a ticket to.
00,
Fergie. I was afraid you wouldn't come.
Would you mind telling me what this is all about? I'm going away.
So I gathered by this. But where, why to Switzerland to have a baby?
Oh,
I knew he'd get you in trouble. Oh, no, it wasn't his fault really.
For what is he going to do about it? He doesn't know it.
You didn't tell him? Well,
what would be the good? It would only worry him. He'd have to go anyway.
Aren't you going to tell him? Well, not yet. I may write him from, from Switzerland.
You're a fool. Yes, your honor.
I'm not
three. Thank you. Watch the hurry. Why I couldn't go back to that hospital?
I couldn't stand it. Not with him gone. But you'll be all alone in Switzerland.
And don't worry, Fergie, I'll be all right.
You're not afraid of anything. Are you?
Not only of going back to that hospital?
Don't scold me, Fergie.
Ok.
559.
Ok.
Very
to his
seat.
18
years.
That was like
I've always told you I was a crazy girl.
I couldn't bear my land.
You were away.
So I've chucked the war and come to live in this
little Swiss town as near as possible to the Italian border.
And you
and darling, it's an adorable place.
I'm going to be very happy here. I've taken a sweet
three
in the best hotel and in fairly wallowing in luxury,
the bed is on
pier and fit for an empress.
There's a maroon velvet carpet, ankle deep and a bathroom all down in the bathroom.
It's a black marble with silver fittings.
I've just dined in state
at my sitting room window
from which there is a divine view of the lake shimmering in moonlight.
I'm an awful liar. Darling.
It's not really a nice place at all. It's mean cheap and horrible,
but it doesn't matter where I live
because I don't really live at all when I'm not with you.
I'm darling.
What I really
want to tell you is that.
But I shall lie awake in the dark and cry because you're not here.
I'm lonely and frightened
and I love her.
Ok.
Hurry, baby. Why?
Time to go? Go where?
But I told you before to the Villa Rosa
New girls. Everybody's going not me.
But you must, it would be a fine party. And besides I said you would go,
I can, I've got to write some letters.
Oh, to that little
every day, more letters you might as well be married.
That's my business.
No, baby.
How you ever come back to me?
Serious? Like a shopkeeper with a liver?
Where is my war brother who used to get drunk
with me and go to the Villa Rossa every night.
Leave me alone, will you?
Why isn't she just a girl?
Keep her out of this sacred subjects?
Believe me, baby, sacred subjects are not good for soldiers.
Why? Don't you be like me all fire and smoke
and do nothing inside.
Come on, baby,
you're drunk. Stop it. Of course I am drunk.
You come with me and you will be drunk too.
Come on, baby.
Oh, I am sorry. Now you must come.
There is a marine.
Get your hands off of me and get out.
Yeah.
Mhm.
Poor baby.
Tomorrow I will get you drunk
and I will take out your liver and I will put you
in a good Italian liver and make a man of you again.
Yeah, baby,
you're going out to Senor
Capitano.
Yeah. Why?
The email just came. Signor Capitano.
You censor it. Signor Capitano.
The officers mail to
anyway
and you're going to open them
in your
Capitano. No,
I'm in a hurry.
Send this one back.
Yes,
I do not like to see him lose his head over a woman.
Yes, you have been done
and today my letters came back. Everyone I'd ever written of came back.
Just mark, returned to Senate. A person unknown. That's very strange.
32 letters. She never got one. Well, that's why she never wrote you. No,
she'd have written me anyway. Something's happened to her. Have you tried?
I can't get any information at all.
I've got to go and find her myself. Can you?
I'm going to Milan, I'll find her.
But aren't all leaves of absence forbidden since that battle in the north began.
I'm going anyway. Well,
that's desertion.
I don't care. I'm going, you'll be caught.
Oh,
you mustn't do this, Frederico.
Yes, I must.
That's what I wanted to tell you, Patrick.
What does this war mean to me anymore? What does anything mean?
But finding her Frederico consider the, I can depend on you. Father.
Say goodbye to Rinaldi and the others for me.
When are you leaving now? While they're at dinner
and by morning when they miss me, I'll be halfway to Milan.
If they ask me what I must say anything you like?
Bye bye.
B
goodbye, Federico.
May the Lord bless and preserve you.
Ok.
What are you going to be nearly doing in the yard looking for stragglers?
What do you do with them? Send them back to fight invaders?
Every foot of Italian soil must be regained because they don't want to go back.
Then you shoot them.
Yeah,
Catherine.
Who's that?
Who's Catherine?
What are you doing back here?
Where's Catherine?
I know
you run away.
You're a desserter. Where is she? I've got to see her. You can't, she's gone,
gone on where? And you'd better get out.
Has she been transferred?
If you don't get out of here, I'll scream and bring the whole hospital down on you.
Why'd you go where? Tell me no,
tell me where she is. Oh my head, choke me.
But I won't tell you you've done her enough harm.
What do you mean?
I said you get her into trouble?
I hate you.
I hate you. Understand? I won't tell you anything.
I hope they catch you.
I hope they shoot you,
pay you back. What you've done to her? Making her have a baby
baby who I warned you, but you didn't care.
Not about her.
Now. She's had to go away.
Where,
where? Oh, for pretty safe. Tell me, Fergie. No,
I told
her
be careful girls.
Where is he?
And get me some clothes, a full outfit.
I can't go around in this uniform.
As long as I don't get mixed up in it myself. You won't.
I just want you to get some things and put an advertisement in the newspaper for me.
I really ought to. If I had any sense,
I know I shall have awful gas pains in the morning as a result of this. Just say
Catherine,
where are you?
I am free at last.
Meet Me Palace Hotel
Straza
signed Frederick
the major made an obituary speech in your memory.
And the priest, he wanted to say Mars for your soul. Uh
Vermouth
one for you to Vermouth.
You see,
we all thought you were dead.
It never occurred to us that you might have been shell shocked, wandered away.
You lost your memory.
How did you find me?
I saw your advertisement in the paper.
But as soon as we knew we arranged everything
Rinaldi will work on you. One of his miraculous curs,
you will go back a hero
I'm not doing that.
They will decorate you for bravery.
They will even promote you.
No,
I'm through the war. Get that straight.
But you cannot do that.
You cannot use to stop and say I'm through with the war. They will let you do that.
Can I speak to you a moment, sir?
All right, Harry, he's my friend but I, uh, he keeps telling me that
it's dangerous for me to stay here any longer.
But the policeman was in tonight. He spoke of notifying the carabinieri.
When will I come tonight? Tomorrow? Who knows? But soon
my boat is still ready, sir.
Thank you, Harry.
If they arrest you, no one can save you. I know that
they will shoot you. Look,
get this through your head. I'm not going back.
I've got to wait here
until I can find Catherine.
And how do you expect to do that?
I've got some people looking for her
that is more important than he is going to have a baby.
My baby.
So,
and that means everything to you.
Yes, it would.
It means that
I've got to find her
and get her out of Italy.
Perhaps she is no longer in Italy. What makes you say that
she is in Switzerland
where
Brissago,
Harry.
Thank you
b
will you do one for me too.
Yes, madam. Step around here.
No,
just the head, please.
Isn't there any mail for me yet?
Ah, madam.
Yes. Yes. Today there are letters. Many letters
2020 that was worth. Waiting for what?
Oh.
Mm.
It is up the link and across
about 35 kilometers. I'll make it at
the frontier. There will be centuries. I know.
And you will have to watch out for the patrol boats.
I will, if it blows too hard, I won't drown.
Have you enough money here?
Won't you need it?
There must be a Villa Rosa at Pone.
Always the same girls until they become like old friends. Like war comrades.
Take it with
you, please, please.
You're a good egg. Renan?
Oh,
I am not a good egg.
I am a fool.
But
if I had understood how you felt about her.
Good luck, baby.
They had
yall baby.
Shall I get a new cylinder? Doctor?
There's a new
cylinder.
Oh, I wanted so to have this baby and not make any trouble.
And now I'm all done.
Oh, God to be.
Hm.
Mhm.
She is losing strength fast doctor. There's no use. I'll have to operate.
That was lovely.
Frederick,
darling.
Mhm.
You must be worried.
I'm not going to die now.
I got
the place where I was going to.
I declare
of course you're not going to die. You mustn't think about it.
It's a Cesarean. We're lucky to be on time.
Mhm.
And
is she going to be all right? Are you the husband? Yes.
She kept calling for you all night. It would have been better if you'd been here.
I'm sorry.
Is she in danger? She's very weak. You don't suppose? I could see her. Now,
later,
later
it won't be long.
Yeah,
she can't die.
Did you call?
No,
I didn't say anything.
Not yet.
Is she all right? I hope so.
The baby,
the boy, but he was dead before she ever came in here. Oh.
But she'll be all right.
That's not in my hands in the long run.
But go across the street and get yourself some breakfast
for
if you need it,
it will be some time before she can see you.
There's nothing there. Doll.
I'm
gonna say that.
You
ready?
Uh
OK.
You've had Children.
What was it like? I beg your pardon?
What did you say?
Nothing
and some coffee, please.
And a brioche.
No,
great.
It's in the papers Italy has won. Thank God it's over.
This is the beginning of the end,
but it will be a long time before they can rebuild
what's been destroyed
in the early morning hours of November 4th,
the Austro Hungarian Supreme Command accepted by Radiogram.
The armistice conditions laid down by General Bedo.
Don't let her die.
Oh God,
please don't let her die.
I do anything for you. If you don't let her die.
He took the baby.
That was all right.
But don't let her die.
Please
clean
dear God.
Don't let her die.
Our husbands are there.
Might as well let to me.
I knew he was coming
when I went under, I knew he was here.
You were Kevin, weren't you

No,

Thank you
doctor.

I have to know.
N

No way.
OK.
Could I have my bag first?
Oh,
such a mess.
Mhm.
He never liked me to be pale.
You can go in now.
Jo,
darling.
You're all right. I'm fine.
Did you worry about me?
I came as soon as
I found where you work
for, darling.
Let me look at you.
Mm.
I
feel wet and tired.
Sit down, darling.
Yeah,

You want me to do anything? Kath?
Could I get you anything?
Just talk to me?
Tell me you haven't stopped loving me.
You know, I couldn't stop.
I like to hear you say it though.
He'll never stop loving you.
Never,

or say the same things. Would you

I'll get you a fine

Don't let me go.
Get,

brave girl.
Yes.
Right.
I, a brave girl. Whatever happens. do not be afraid.

will never be parted.
You do believe that, don't, you can
