Things To Come Eng (1936) Subtitles

At 00:03:35,040, Character said: Hullo, young Harding!
You're early.

2
At 00:03:36,832, Character said: Yes, I had finished up. It was
too late to start anything fresh.

3
At 00:03:40,019, Character said: What's all this fuss about
in the papers tonight, Mr. Cabal?

4
At 00:03:42,409, Character said: - Wars and rumours of wars.
- Crying wolf?

5
At 00:03:45,197, Character said: Some day the wolf will come.
These fools are capable of anything.

6
At 00:03:48,981, Character said: - In that case, what happens to
medical research? - It has to stop.

7
At 00:03:53,164, Character said: - That will mess me up.
- Mess you up. Mess everything up.

8
At 00:03:56,151, Character said: My God, if war gets loose again...

9
At 00:03:58,143, Character said: Merry Christmas, everyone!

10
At 00:03:59,935, Character said: 'While shepherds watched
their flocks by night,
All seated on the ground...'

11
At 00:04:04,715, Character said: What's the matter with you fellows?

12
At 00:04:07,304, Character said: Oh, that. This little upset across
the water doesn't mean anything.

13
At 00:04:11,288, Character said: Threatened men live long, and
threatened wars never occur.

14
At 00:04:15,271, Character said: Another speech by him.

15
At 00:04:17,462, Character said: I tell you there's nothing in it.
It's just to buck people up
over the air estimates.

16
At 00:04:21,843, Character said: Now why meet wars half-way? Why not
look at the bright side of things?

17
At 00:04:25,428, Character said: You're all right, your business
is going up, you've g***t a jolly wife,
a pretty home.

18
At 00:04:29,411, Character said: All's right with the world, eh?

19
At 00:04:31,801, Character said: - All's right with the world.
- Certainly!

20
At 00:04:34,191, Character said: Passworthy, you should have
been called Pippa Passworthy...

21
At 00:04:37,378, Character said: And Cabal, you've been smoking too much.

22
At 00:04:39,369, Character said: You're not - you're not eupeptic...

23
At 00:04:42,158, Character said: Oh, come on, it's Christmas.
'No-el! No-el!'

24
At 00:04:46,340, Character said: 'No-el! No-el!'

25
At 00:04:49,128, Character said: 'Born is the King of Israel.'

26
At 00:05:04,464, Character said: Nice toys they have nowadays, nice toys.

27
At 00:05:08,049, Character said: The toys we had were simpler.
Ever so much simpler.

28
At 00:05:11,634, Character said: Noah's Arks and wooden soldiers.

29
At 00:05:14,024, Character said: Nothing complex like these.

30
At 00:05:17,011, Character said: You know, I wonder sometimes if
perhaps all these new toys
aren't a bit too much for them.

31
At 00:05:22,189, Character said: It teaches them to use their hands.

32
At 00:05:24,778, Character said: And I suppose their grandchildren
will see even more wonderful things.

33
At 00:05:29,757, Character said: Progress - progress -

34
At 00:05:32,944, Character said: I'd like to see - the wonders
they'll see.

35
At 00:05:36,131, Character said: Don't be too sure of progress.

36
At 00:05:38,122, Character said: Oh, listen to the incurable pessimist.

37
At 00:05:40,114, Character said: What's to stop progress nowadays?

38
At 00:05:42,902, Character said: War!

39
At 00:05:45,093, Character said: Firstly, there isn't going to be a war,
and secondly, war doesn't stop progress.

40
At 00:05:48,080, Character said: It stimulates progress.

41
At 00:05:49,873, Character said: Yes, war can be a highly
stimulating thing.

42
At 00:05:52,661, Character said: But you can overdo a stimulant.

43
At 00:05:55,649, Character said: Oh, well, after all, aren't we
exaggerating the horrors of war?

44
At 00:05:58,238, Character said: Don't we rather overdo that song?

45
At 00:06:00,628, Character said: After all, you know, the last war
wasn't as bad as some people make out.

46
At 00:06:03,814, Character said: We didn't worry. Something great
seemed to have g***t hold of us.

47
At 00:06:08,395, Character said: Something greater still may
get hold of us next time.

48
At 00:06:11,581, Character said: If we don't end war -
war will end us.

49
At 00:06:14,370, Character said: Well, what can you do?

50
At 00:06:17,556, Character said: Yes, what can we do?

51
At 00:06:41,881, Character said: Peace on earth,
Goodwill to all men.

52
At 00:06:44,271, Character said: A real old-fashioned
Christmas this year.

53
At 00:06:46,461, Character said: Fresh, a little snow,
with a nip in the air.

54
At 00:06:50,643, Character said: What was that?
It sounded like a gun.

55
At 00:06:53,431, Character said: No guns here.

56
At 00:06:55,223, Character said: Merry Christmas, Cabal - here's
to another good year for all of us.

57
At 00:06:58,210, Character said: Another year of recovery, eh?

58
At 00:07:01,595, Character said: What are searchlights doing now?

59
At 00:07:06,772, Character said: Yes.
Anti-aircraft manœuvres, I expect.

60
At 00:07:08,365, Character said: Well, it must be -
anti-aircraft manœuvres.

61
At 00:07:11,551, Character said: Manœuvres at Christmas?
No!

62
At 00:07:15,733, Character said: Listen.
Guns again.

63
At 00:07:27,482, Character said: Yes? Cabal speaking.

64
At 00:07:31,066, Character said: The Hilltown air base at three?
I'll be there.

65
At 00:07:38,036, Character said: - Mobilisation!
- Oh God!

66
At 00:07:40,624, Character said: Perhaps it's only
a precautionary mobilisation.

67
At 00:07:47,594, Character said: The unknown aircraft
passed over Seabeach

68
At 00:07:49,784, Character said: and dropped bombs within a few
hundred yards of the waterworks.
They then turned seaward again.

69
At 00:07:53,966, Character said: By this time they had been
picked up by the searchlights
of the battleship Dinosaur.

70
At 00:07:57,550, Character said: Before they could mount out of range,

71
At 00:07:59,343, Character said: she had opened upon them
with her anti-aircraft guns.
Unfortunately without result.

72
At 00:08:03,126, Character said: - Of course everyone has said
'This time they'll start without
any declaration of war.' - Oh, listen!

73
At 00:08:06,909, Character said: We do not yet know the nationality
of these aircraft,

74
At 00:08:09,299, Character said: though of course there can be
little doubt of their place of origin.

75
At 00:08:11,689, Character said: But before all things it is necessary
for the country to keep calm.

76
At 00:08:16,069, Character said: No doubt the losses suffered
by the fleet are serious.

77
At 00:08:18,061, Character said: - What? Losses of the fleet?
- Listen! Listen!

78
At 00:08:20,052, Character said: And it is imperative that the whole
nation should at once stand to arms.

79
At 00:08:23,437, Character said: Orders for a general mobilisation
have been issued

80
At 00:08:26,225, Character said: and the precautionary civilian
organisation against gas will
at once be put into operation.

81
At 00:08:31,203, Character said: Ah - instructions have
just come to hand.

82
At 00:08:33,593, Character said: We shall cut off for five minutes and
then read you the general instructions.

83
At 00:08:36,978, Character said: Please call in all your friends.
Call in everyone you can.

84
At 00:08:43,350, Character said: You've g***t your stimulant, Passworthy.

85
At 00:08:45,939, Character said: Something great has g***t you.
War has come.

86
At 00:10:02,987, Character said: War has broken out suddenly.

87
At 00:10:04,978, Character said: There may be an air raid,
but it is not likely to be
a very serious one.

88
At 00:10:08,960, Character said: You must be prepared for it.
The danger will not be great.

89
At 00:10:12,544, Character said: As soon as the danger is over,
bugles will sound 'all clear'.

90
At 00:10:15,929, Character said: The streets will be dangerous.

91
At 00:10:17,721, Character said: Do not assemble in crowds.
Keep indoors. Go home.

92
At 00:10:21,106, Character said: Those who are far from home, can take
refuge in the underground railways.

93
At 00:10:24,490, Character said: Go home. Go home. Go home.

94
At 00:10:27,278, Character said: Get out of the squares.
Get out of the streets.

95
At 00:10:30,065, Character said: Go home and stay calm.

96
At 00:10:31,857, Character said: Turn out all the lights.
Close all the windows.

97
At 00:10:34,247, Character said: Put a wet sheet or a wet blanket
over doors and windows.

98
At 00:10:55,949, Character said: My dear, my dear, are you sorry we -
had these children?

99
At 00:11:01,524, Character said: No. Life must carry on.

100
At 00:11:06,303, Character said: Why should we surrender life
to the brutes and fools?

101
At 00:11:09,887, Character said: I loved you.

102
At 00:11:11,679, Character said: I wanted to serve you
and make life happy for you.

103
At 00:11:17,254, Character said: But think of the things
that may happen to them.

104
At 00:11:22,629, Character said: - Were we selfish?
- You weren't afraid to bear them -

105
At 00:11:26,014, Character said: We were children yesterday.

106
At 00:11:28,802, Character said: We are anxious, but we are not afraid.

107
At 00:11:33,182, Character said: Really.

108
At 00:11:37,562, Character said: Courage, my dear.

109
At 00:11:40,151, Character said: And may that little heart have courage.

110
At 00:12:00,997, Character said: Are you an officer, daddy?

111
At 00:12:03,187, Character said: Well, you've g***t to do our bit,
you know, sonny. G***t to do our bit.

112
At 00:12:06,173, Character said: I'm an officer too, daddy.

113
At 00:12:08,164, Character said: That's the spirit.
Carry on, sir. Carry on.

114
At 00:12:13,738, Character said: Goodbye, son.

115
At 00:12:18,516, Character said: Quick march!

116
At 00:12:40,017, Character said: An air raid is approaching Everytown.
An air raid is approaching Everytown.

117
At 00:12:43,800, Character said: Gas masks are being...
