Captain Corelli's Mandolin Page #2
But today your freedom
is in danger.
The Italian Army
sweeps through Albania...
...and her troops get ready to
cross the frontiers of Greece.
Exo Mussolini!
Exo Mussolini!
If you care
about your country...
...then you must fight
to defend her.
Join the war in Albania.
Fight for your mothers,
your sweethearts...
...your wives, your children.
Fight for the freedom...
...for all Greek people to live their
lives with dignity and respect!
When I come back
from the war...
...we will get married.
And I will build a house
for Pelagia...
...on the land
that belonged to my father.
I know we are different.
I don't know about the world.
Where have I been?
What could I know?
I don't know how to say
what I feel inside.
I don't know how to tell you
what is in here.
But I think... I know... Pelagia...
...I love you.
Tomorrow I leave for the war.
Pelagia, come
and dance with me.
I'll write.
I promise.
And promise that
you will write to me.
"My darling, you have not written
since that day I saw you off."
"And I am so terrified that I am not
getting any letters from you..."
"...because you have been
wounded or taken prisoner."
"And I have nightmares
that you are dead."
"Summer has turned to winter..."
"...and I am writing
"The wounded who have returned
bring news of terrible conditions."
"Freezing cold, no food."
"But they bring
no news from you."
"Every day I wait
for the mail from Argostoli..."
"...and every day
there is nothing."
"And I feel as if I am going
mad with worry and fear."
"I try not to lose hope..."
"...but I long to feel something,
even if it is only pain."
We won!
We won!
It's over!
We've beaten them in Albania.
Look!
8,000 of us against 14,000 Italians,
and we forced them to withdraw.
What?
Hitler will never let
his lapdog be humiliated.
He will come to Mussolini's aid.
"I have written
"...and a dozen times
I have thrown it away."
"I don't know how
to describe my feelings."
"It's as if I've been waiting
a hundred years to hear from you."
"Waiting a hundred years
for you to return."
Pelagia.
This is hopeless.
It's all wrong!
Following the great defeat
of the Italians in Albania...
...Hitler's bombers have
counterattacked...
...and the German Army has driven a path
through to the Greek capital, Athens.
A large number of Greek ships were destroyed
in the bombing of the nearby Port of Piraeus.
On April 27, the Athenian Military
Commissioner General Calvacos...
...officially handed over the keys of the
ancient city to his German counterpart....
...Lieutenant Colonel
Von Zephyr...
...and preparations are underway
