Presenting Michael Redgrave at CS Barsters in Dominable Man of the Sea, a ratio horn blower. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Sitting here in England, playing with countries getting soft in retirement, doesn't least serve to keep my memories sharp. I'd retain a very clear picture in my mind of the events which followed the suppression of the mutiny in the flame. I was tired, I was much to do, many decisions to be taken. Certainly I felt little enough like granting an interview with a prisoner, and yet the seaman who bore Captain Freeman's message was awaiting my answer. [Music] Oh, well, the Captain Freeman takes it a bicycle, he can send this fellow in to me. What's his name again? The Lebron, sir. He seems to be tempted in mayor of Le Havre, sir. Certainly mayor, is he? Let's see what he has to say. I've got him outside now, sir. [Music] Bring him in, come and all see him now. [Music] Ah, sir, what have we got to say to me? I take it, sir, because I may speak entirely in confidence. I promise not. I represent large, commercial interests which have had great influence on the prosperity of Le Havre. It's one which was prepared for the month of peace. We fool warehouses. We make millions, millions. Sir, I'm a busy man, come to the point. He's not just the upgrade, but it might do well to allow his friends to make those preparations in advance. Michel Lebron, I trust you're getting thought to what you're saying. There are words which would take you to the guillotine that Bonaparte ever heard of them. You're offering to betray the Empire for commercial advantages. There are many in France, sir, who have no faith in the Empire. Very well. You may tell me the nature of Le Havre, but remember that I can make no promises on behalf of my government. Well, suppose, for instance, that the city of ours declared itself against the Empire and for Louis XVIII. Well, it might be the example for which the Empire is waiting. And if Le Havre declared for the king, the city would be in alliance with the Great Britain and their license, could then be granted for my throne to import. How do I know that the city of Arages will declare for the king? I cannot assure you of the support of the males of Le Havre. Most of the other authorities would be saved too. As to the others, a dozen well-timed arrests and a beautiful group in the barracks, the arrival of your forces are happening proclamation to the people, the declaration of a state of siege and all would be over. Listen, LeBron, I've been very patient, but so far you've made no definite proposal. If you have one, make it. If not, allow me to proceed with my own duties very well. Here is my proposal. Set me on short. As an excuse, you could send me to arrange the exchange of prisons. If I can assure Mr. LeBron of your support, I can complete the arrangements in three days. I mean, while you, sir, you remain close in the vicinity with all the force you can muster. The moment we secure the citadel, we shall send off a white flag. When you see that, sir, you will enter the harbor and over all any resistance in return for this. A license to import colonial produce and your world of honor that you will inform King Louis that it was I. Actually, LeBron, who was responsible for the scheme. There, am I specific enough, sir? Uh, uh, uh, pass the word for escort to take this prisoner away. All right, don't you refuse. But, sir, I will give you my decision in an hour. Meanwhile, for appearances, I can't be treated harshly. For the moment, I have no more to say. ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ Big problems, sir, the plane is signaling, sir. Uh, 1851-10. That's, uh, friend of ships in sight. They are in no way. Good. Must be the reinforcements. Find out who's in command. All right, sir. The signal's going up now, sir. I'll read it back, sir. It's non-such. 74, Captain Bush, sir. Bush? By accident. Well, of course, the new woods send him if possible. He knows I can always rely on Bush. For the signals, sir. Oh, sir, Camilla. 36, Captain Hard. Have on board 300 marine. 300 marine deck. Wonderful, sir. With those and our own men and the non-such, we should be able to march 500 men into the harv. If the opportunity arises, flag this in and make this signal. Come on, order all vessels. Join me here after the car, sir. I shall transfer to the plane. Mr. Cremen, there'll be other work for you with the port of Chile. Kindly join me with Captain Bush and Hard when they arrive after dark. Le Brere must be completing his plans and we must strike tomorrow, if at all. High eyes, sir. How good it was that he Bush again and he hoisted himself and his wooden leg onto the plane in the darkness. It was good Joe to sit in the stuff a little cabin with Bush, Reeman, and Howard, and outlying my plans for the morrow. Action was what I needed and the prospect of it swept away all my darts and fears. I knew there was no certainty that my government wanted to restore the board bonds if burn apart fellow, that they might refuse to honor my promise of the import license, that they might refuse to recognize Louis the 18th. But I might be sharply reprimanded for all I'd done, but the time for hesitation was over now and the risk must be taken. I saw Bush studying the anxious limb. You've been very busy since you came to see again, sir. Too busy if you fought me. It was too soon for you to receive duty. Nonsense, Bush, I've had nearly a year sickly. Yes, sir. Sickly. After diapers. Since then and this work, cutting out action, a battle, three flies is taken, two vessels sunk, an invasion planned, and now a midnight council of war. Now look here, are you gentlemen trying to tell me that I'm unclip for service? Well, no, sir, but I can. And then kind of keep your opinions to yourselves. Now, you all understand what I want done tomorrow? If tomorrow is the day, no questions? No, sir, sir. Well, you... you must forget me if I was rude just now. Better try and tell you. Beat the quarters and clear the break for action. Help me that speaking company. Thank you. What's the telly, a hoy, blame a hoy? I have cleared for action. All ships here, please. They keep stations and orders. Aye, aye, sir. I remember, Mr. Crawley, if I'm killed as we go in, the flame is to be laid alongside the king. Captain Bush has to be informed as soon as possible, but the flame is to go on. And now let's get those men moving. As cold will kill them and to numb them. Then, you have to come to the sheets. Let's see how you can jump. Go on, life it around. Move your arms as well. Go on, like this. Fire on that! Go on now, fire, fire. That's it. Aye, right, still. Go on, for me forever. Stand here, post. Oh, I'll be right in my house. I'll just go, thank you. Yes, and you can take that to the very front. Aye, aye, sir. This will be another legend in the Navy, sir. But are you ready to action with the men jumping? Yeah, remember the time, sir, when you had the men dancing in the old pipe that we went into action against him, he'd add. No desire to recall the past at the moment, run. Future, old people's busy enough. Mr. Crawley, two hands at the lead, if you please. If one is killed, the other is to continue sounding. Aye, sir. Of the other tech? Aye, sir. On the other tech? Aye, sir. Head to sheets. Aye, sir. Name so sheets. Making three knots under four and a half, sir, we stood in full of harm. Shadowing in the fog. I could just make out portraitially following our tech. Behind her, but invisible to me, was the old nun, such. I'd not set eyes on her since the day I quitted her to catch the typus in media. Aye, good old Bush. It was comforting to have him with me again with his solid loyalty, but none such as humbering broadside. An anchored boy loomed on a starboard bow. We were nearing the entrance to the heart. Aye, sir. Aye, sir. Aye, sir. Aye, sir. Aye, sir. Aye, sir. Now listen to me, man. Not as short as to be fired without my orders. A man who fires a gun, no matter for what reason, unless I tell him to. I'll have merely flog. I'll hang. Well, some said today, he'll be at the yard on. Hear me? Aye, aye, aye. You two know if this is a trap or not. If LeBron is playing a double game, only the flame will be lost. The others will get clear and have him help LeBron in his city. Look, they are along that key, as quick as you can. No. Where is your officer? Are you in command here, sir? What do you want? I tell you, man, not to fire. If you're not receiving any orders, I'll get you men away from those guns before there's an accident. Go on, shit, look down there, british, ships at the table, it's just my being sporty. What am I to do? And the messenger at once, to the other battery, to make sure the officer in command understands. But, must you, I can not die. I said that once, sir. The moment was tense and uncertain. The young officer was clearly undecided, and then I had an inspiration. I'd been speaking in French, of course. And now I heard the rhythmic tread of a section of marines approaching, and I beckoned them to march past me. As they approached, I called to them. I got it. The men's head turned smartly towards the French officer. The officer of marines, saluted smartly. The courtesy of it completely took the wind out of the French themselves. As he gaped, the marines wheeled left on the battery and threw the open sally port in among the guns, pushing the gun as a side, knocking the smodering minstocks from the hands. But, let me oak up. All right, sirs, I can finish, I can manage. That's all right to the other batteries. See that the other landing pot is deployed as a wrench. Open. Open in the name of the king. What do you say to king? He's a pretty serviceer. You tell that imbecile to lower his musket. Now, open the gate. Open the gate, I say. Do you expect my marines to march through it? Ah, that's better. Now, come on, my beauty, and look forward to it. Mm. Well, friend of all founders, and all pointing towards the harbor. When is this the heating shop? Never of storms is better if I order the methods. Alipids five feet, eight feet high. Ten foot ditches, sir. That's all, mister. I do not understand. Where are you at? Where did you see the king? Ah, are you the supple to men charge you? Yes, mister. Sir, hi. I bring you great news. This is the beginning of a new age for France. Ah. I understand. You'll find a horse too. He is all well? As well, my nurse, sir. I thought I ought not to involve a landing party in the narrow streets of the town without orders. Ah. I have two midshipmen here, if you need messengers, sir. Oh, and your quarks, sir. Your hat, sir. I'll pick you up on the key. Oh, well, thank you, man. The harbor defenses are all secured, mister, hard. And, sir, thanks to your boldness. Because if that chapter that's done is at least succeeded in creating some confusion, none of these frauds seem to know what to do. And we mustn't give them time to think. Hello. He comes here, a rider with a white handkerchief in his hand. You are a mister, oh, blare, sir. All in blare, yes. When I come to mister, let me know, sir. Consider this secure, he is about to descend to the main square. Good. As we enter the town in gay profession, the people stare at us. Some curious, or sullen, some indifferent. But none actively hostile. And they plus the lotilled a view, there was far more bustle in life. Numerous men sat horses, and the attachments was on down, drawn up in line, given their respectability to proceedings. But what did they call it? I was the multitude of white and white everywhere. Yeah. Obviously, they're making sure we understand there's a truth on. They're going to win big sheets hanging out in the window. Oh, even the police have got white cockades in their hats. They're not true scholars, right? White is the color of the bull barns, the kings of France. Oh, this is the first time for 20 years that the bull barn white has shown on French soil. Well, you've come to a fat looking bloke with a white sash. Well, I've been the other child color there yesterday. You look in the book for the coach, I think. I suspect he's been there, that on low mass. Come on out! Oh! Yes. Oh, my horse, well, that is not good. Oh, friend! Oh, hello. So, on the blow-off, I embrace you. Countess! Countess! Countess, somebody! A gentleman is very respected. Ah, and here is Michela Bernard, I perceive. Your servant, sir. Our friend has exceeded. Oh, the Count of this. This is a great moment, so hunger. A very great moment, Michela Bernard. If you will be so good as to accompany me to the food of the flagstaff, this ceremony is about to begin. I shall proclaim my results to his Majesty. Ladies and gentlemen, sir, Matthew. The city's ends of the harbor. I have a moment to declare that all two Frenchmen, no longer served in use at the podium. Ah, and what's happening? Oh, yes, sir. Erm, erm, erm, erm, it seems to be a pride. They are not sides, please. I think it's somebody who told you all about it. Here, it is. You do this feeling, so although I quickly, I think we should be that way. Don't bother me. Don't bother me. Do not do it. I'll be sure to take the office. I'm an officer, not an older man. Oh! Here, quickly! [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] The burn-up artist numbered only some 30 or 40 men, and could have been dealt with the vice of police, but it was important in this early state that the times had been given a lead. The slightest hesitation will show of leniency might lose the time. They scattered before our charge. I reformed my men and marched them back to the square, where the mayor had once again taken up his stand beneath the flagstone. [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] To sit his hands of the hour, I declare the whole two frick men voluntarily recognize the unbroken reign of his most Christian majesty, Louis Iqin, King of all, and of all. When the people was adopted. Yes, I think Brian, it's time to register on our part. And... ...reaches for the king. All together now... ...it's best best... ...bye! It's best best... ...bye! It's best best... ...bye! Here, Jack, please. What blooming king are we honoring for? I don't know. All he says we got a cheer. And if all he told me to cheer old Boney is still, I'd do it, see. The port of La Havre was ours. Bonaparte had suffered his greatest defeat yet since Moscow. It was perhaps only a foothold that English feet held it. And after all these years, all the blood and the heartache... ...the grounds seemed to shake beneath the tyrant bonaparte supreme.
