I changed my mind.

No!

No!

No! No! No!

You killed us!

Get them!

- I knew it.

- The knife.

- I knew it.

- The knife.

- Okay! Okay!

Too proud to lose a fight,

so we lose everything!

We're dead!

Everything is arranged.

Excuse me. Come on!

You and me and Katrina, we're

leaving for America. Tonight!

Tonight! America? We'll be lucky to get

out of here alive!

- You got the tickets.

- In the envelope, hey?

- Rene, get in the car.

- Go! Go!

Come on, let's go! Go!

How 'bout first class tickets ...

... on an oceanliner?

Great! A month vomiting over

a railing.

What are you complaining about?

- We're finally going to America.

- What else do you want?

What else do I want?

Daah!

Slow down, we lost them!

- I'm not taking any chances.

- Hey.

- Give me the cross.

- What? The cross?

They're gone. Trust me!

Maxim!

- Go back, Alan! Go back!

- Maxim!

I'm sorry.

Hold on!

What's your hurry, champ?

Rober, tell Galgani we have him!

Hold him!

Ouy.

There! There he is.

Rene!

Oh No!

Nooo!

Get him!

Kill him!

This way! I'm sure he went this way.

Lefevre, you're a dead man!

FOREIGN LEGlON

You'll never see him again.

If you try running away once more, ...

... you're dead.

So? You come with a mission? ...

... or you come by mistake?

Please ... be seated!

Sit!

Soissons, 1918.

Morocco, 1922.

So! How can we help you, Monsieur?

- I want to join the Legion.

- Aah!

But of course, you have come to

the right place.

Name, please!

But understand one thing,

Monsieur ...

... Duchamp.

Once you sign, there is no backing out.

There are only three ways to return

to la Belle France.

One, fulfill your contract.

Two, disability.

And three, ...

... in a box.

MOROCCO, NORTH AFRlCA

Make room!

Out of the way!

Come on! Move you pigs!

"From little towns in a far

land we came ...

to save our honor ...

from a world aflame.

"In little towns in far lands

we seek ...

- Whooh! Oh boy.

- Go!

"And trust that world

we won, to you ...

March!

One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two.

One, two. Moove thoose legs!

Sir!

Dismissed!

Oh! Can I have a cigarette? Heh?

Gracias!

It's a very good cigarette.

Look at these men. All these men who left

their homes so they can be heroes.

That is why I left.

Know why I want to be hero?

So I can marry my Anna.

She is my aah... fiance.

But don't tell no one, huh?

It's a secret. For you and me.

Between you and me.

We're friends.

Anna's mother and father, they don't like me.

They say I'm a bum.

But I will show them. One day Guido will

go home to town ...

I will have medals on my chest, maybe

even a band playing ...

Then they will say, "Guido Rosetti

is good for Anna".

Hey. Want to see picture?
