Francis-of-Assisi-1961-XviD Subtitles

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,

00:00:40,149 --> 00:00:42,

00:00:44,654 --> 00:00:47,The beginning of the 13th century
was a time of turmoil.

00:00:48,091 --> 00:00:50,Emperor clashed with pope,
prince with king...

00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,and burgher with nobleman.

00:00:52,562 --> 00:00:54,In this era appeared a man...

00:00:54,564 --> 00:00:56,who brought a message
oflove and peace...

00:00:56,766 --> 00:00:58,that still lives
in the hearts of men.

00:01:00,937 --> 00:01:04,This man was...
Francis Bernardone of Assisi.

00:01:56,592 --> 00:01:59,"By decree of Pope Innocent III...

00:01:59,429 --> 00:02:02,"the town of Assisi shall enlist all men
and means of war...

00:02:02,698 --> 00:02:06,"in the holy cause of liberating Sicily
for King Frederick.

00:02:06,936 --> 00:02:08,"All able-bodied men are summoned...

00:02:08,938 --> 00:02:11,to enroll under the flag
of Duke Walter of Brienne. '"

00:02:30,827 --> 00:02:34,Clare, come away.
It's not dignified to hang out the window.

00:02:34,897 --> 00:02:36,Don't let that fly-by-night see you.

00:02:36,899 --> 00:02:39,It's a surprise to see him
in the daytime.

00:02:44,373 --> 00:02:46,Father.

00:02:46,442 --> 00:02:48,- You've heard, haven't you?
- Everyone has.

00:02:48,945 --> 00:02:50,This is the chance
I've been waiting for.

00:02:51,013 --> 00:02:53,And for once you have
your father's warmest approval.

00:02:58,754 --> 00:03:00,Good morning, Mother.

00:03:02,625 --> 00:03:05,Have you decided to go?

00:03:05,728 --> 00:03:09,You knew that if the chance came my way
I was going to take it.

00:03:09,665 --> 00:03:12,Now, don't worry, Mother.
I'll come out of it with honor. I assure you.

00:03:12,768 --> 00:03:15,Honor.
Where does one find honor in war?

00:03:15,471 --> 00:03:17,Now, don't be foolish.
The boy will rise high.

00:03:17,640 --> 00:03:19,He could become a count,
even a duke.

00:03:19,642 --> 00:03:21,You know I always had
other hopes for him.

00:03:21,811 --> 00:03:23,I want him to be a child of God.

00:03:23,846 --> 00:03:27,Can't he be a count and a child of God too?
Be sensible, woman.

00:03:27,150 --> 00:03:29,Try to understand, Mother.
I have to leave home sometime.

00:03:29,719 --> 00:03:33,Well, at any rate, you know you have
my permission and my blessing, my son.

00:03:41,764 --> 00:03:44,Good day, sir.

00:03:44,367 --> 00:03:47,- Are you Pietro Bernardone?
- I **. May I help you, sir?

00:03:47,537 --> 00:03:50,I hope so.
I'm Count Paolo de Vandria.

00:03:50,439 --> 00:03:52,Oh, I'm honored.
Come in. Come in.

00:03:58,881 --> 00:04:00,Here.

00:04:01,951 --> 00:04:04,- Please.
- Thank you.

00:04:04,754 --> 00:04:08,I'm en route from Florence
to reclaim my states in Sicily...

00:04:08,124 --> 00:04:10,and I find it quite necessary
to make certain arrangements.

00:04:10,726 --> 00:04:12,When I first came to Assisi...

00:04:12,728 --> 00:04:15,you were pointed out as a man
not adverse to lending money...

00:04:15,431 --> 00:04:17,and I wish to borrow some.

00:04:17,433 --> 00:04:19,Well, uh...

00:04:19,502 --> 00:04:21,I'm a silk merchant,
not a moneylender.

00:04:21,637 --> 00:04:25,I have a castle and lands in Sicily.
Here are the documents.

00:04:25,107 --> 00:04:27,I need a small sum of money
for a horse and armor...

00:04:27,810 --> 00:04:29,so that I can return
and claim what is mine.

00:04:30,079 --> 00:04:32,To lend money on a captured castle...

00:04:32,281 --> 00:04:34,would not be a loan, but charity.

00:04:34,750 --> 00:04:36,These are hard times.

00:04:37,086 --> 00:04:39,I regret it,
but we cannot do business.

00:04:39,188 --> 00:04:42,Well, I see that I've made a mistake.

00:04:42,658 --> 00:04:45,I've heard of you as a man
of some means and some quality.

00:04:45,995 --> 00:04:47,But I see I was wrong.

00:04:47,997 --> 00:04:51,Oh, well. There are others.

00:04:51,367 --> 00:04:53,Count de Vandria.

00:04:53,369 --> 00:04:56,- I couldn't help overhearing
your request of my father.
- This is my son, Francis.

00:04:56,772 --> 00:04:58,There are other ways
for a knight to earn armor.

00:04:58,975 --> 00:05:02,Not by any code of honor that you
or your clothier father would understand.

00:05:02,778 --> 00:05:06,I **, sir, familiar with all the codes of
knightly honor, but this is a simpler matter.

00:05:06,782 --> 00:05:08,Assisi is sending an army to Sicily.

00:05:08,818 --> 00:05:11,If you would join it, you would have horse,
armor and all by tomorrow at the latest.

00:05:12,054 --> 00:05:14,- My son is enlisting with the Duke de Brienne.
- Well...

00:05:14,657 --> 00:05:17,I'd offer to drink a bottle
to your success, but, uh...

00:05:17,893 --> 00:05:20,Well, I've spent my last florin yesterday.

00:05:20,229 --> 00:05:23,Oh, then you must be hungry.

00:05:23,232 --> 00:05:25,Sir, in what campaigns have you fought?

00:05:25,301 --> 00:05:27,Many. And in many places.

00:05:27,503 --> 00:05:29,Three years ago in Perugia
for this city's sake.

00:05:29,739 --> 00:05:32,Then Assisi will be glad
to have you on its side. Join us.

00:05:32,642 --> 00:05:36,If war is your vocation, you might
teach me valor, my father courtesy.

00:05:36,445 --> 00:05:40,Pax et bonum.
A gift in the name of God.

00:05:40,182 --> 00:05:42,- A gift.
- Oh, it's you again.

00:05:42,151 --> 00:05:44,- Out.
- Oh, Father, he...

00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,If he had his way,
the beggars of Assisi would all be rich.

00:05:47,556 --> 00:05:49,Get away from my store.
Move on.

00:05:49,558 --> 00:05:51,They go everywhere like flies.

00:05:51,794 --> 00:05:54,I'm sorry. Have you decided?

00:05:54,196 --> 00:05:56,Well, if your son fights
as well as he talks...

00:05:56,832 --> 00:05:59,he may be of a help
in winning back my land.

00:05:59,468 --> 00:06:01,Then you'll go with him?
Wonderful.

00:06:01,937 --> 00:06:06,This calls for wine, food.
Mother, a guest.

00:06:06,208 --> 00:06:08,It looks as if I've found
a new comrade-in-arms.

00:06:09,812 --> 00:06:12,- Yes. Yes. It seems so.

00:06:12,648 --> 00:06:15,You act like a nobleman's son,
not the son of a merchant.

00:06:17,620 --> 00:06:20,Now, this expedition,
when does it set out?

00:06:20,122 --> 00:06:24,- Tomorrow, in the morning.
- But right now you eat. This way.

00:06:24,193 --> 00:06:26,Mother.

00:06:37,707 --> 00:06:40,- Hey.
- Come.

00:06:50,853 --> 00:06:54,What's the matter, Paolo?
You lost your nerve? Go ahead.

00:06:57,326 --> 00:06:59,Oh!

00:06:59,895 --> 00:07:03,You missed.
Between the fingers, but no blood.

00:07:03,132 --> 00:07:05,- i'll give you one more chance.
- Francis, don't let him do it.

00:07:06,102 --> 00:07:08,There's nothing to be afraid of...
not for you anyway.

00:07:08,938 --> 00:07:11,I thought you learned this trick
from the Saracens.

00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,I hope there aren't too many
four-fingered Saracens.

00:07:13,442 --> 00:07:16,- I won't look.
- I don't intend to let you.

00:07:16,412 --> 00:07:18,Throw.

00:07:20,916 --> 00:07:22,Oh!

00:07:22,918 --> 00:07:26,You lose. And I'll keep my promise
because you dared to try.

00:07:26,255 --> 00:07:28,She's yours.

00:07:28,324 --> 00:07:30,But, Francis, I want to stay yours.

00:07:30,326 --> 00:07:33,Anna Lucia, you must lose your honor
in honoring my promise.

00:07:33,829 --> 00:07:35,Who says she has any honor to lose?

00:07:35,831 --> 00:07:38,Oh, you're crazy... both of you.

00:07:40,169 --> 00:07:42,Your hand.
There is blood on it.

00:07:42,171 --> 00:07:44,It's only a scratch.
Don't faint on me.

00:07:44,373 --> 00:07:47,- Let me help you.
- Francis, it's your turn with the dice.

00:07:47,643 --> 00:07:50,- I'll come in if you'll double the stakes.
- Double? All right.

00:07:50,813 --> 00:07:54,- Take it.
- The number is six. I'll bet 20.

00:08:03,125 --> 00:08:05,Here. A toast.

00:08:07,763 --> 00:08:11,- Take it. It's all yours. Let's get out of here.
- What's wrong, Francis?

00:08:11,801 --> 00:08:14,Let's do something more exciting.
I'm leaving. You coming, Paolo?

00:08:15,070 --> 00:08:17,What? And leave my winnings?
[Laughs]

00:08:18,441 --> 00:08:20,More wine.

00:08:21,410 --> 00:08:24,Ahhh! Let's drink to love's victory.

00:08:40,463 --> 00:08:43,Pax et bonum.
Peace, and God with you.

00:08:43,265 --> 00:08:47,This is the second time.
Why do you follow me?

00:08:47,336 --> 00:08:50,I want a gift from you.

00:08:50,239 --> 00:08:52,I don't want your money.

00:08:52,508 --> 00:08:55,- What, then? What do you want?
- A gift from your heart.
