For Whom the Bell Tolls Page #16

Synopsis: Spain in the 1930s is the place to be for a man of action like Robert Jordan. There is a civil war going on and Jordan who has joined up on the side that appeals most to idealists of that era -- like Ernest Hemingway and his friends -- has been given a high-risk assignment up in the mountains. He awaits the right time to blow up a bridge in a cave. Pilar, who is in charge there, has an ability to foretell the future. And so that night she encourages Maria, a young girl ravaged by enemy soldiers, to join Jordan who has decided to spend the night under the stars.

and no pack. - I need you here.

Our route was longer because

we carried explosive. It was safer.

I will get there as well as another.

And something could happen to anyone.

This dispatch is for General Golz.

Remember the name, "Golz".

Where will I find him?

- Ask when you get to our lines.

This seal ought to get you through.

If you have problems, show this here.

You've got seven hours at the most.

The attack is set for sunrise.

I prefer to be with you at the bridge.

- Get this to General Golz

and we won't have to blow the bridge.

We'll all escape to the Gredos safely.

Remember, the bridge's got to go

if the attack starts.

Pablo! Pablo, come back!

Pilar!

Pablo has gone!

Didn't I tell you he was a coward?

You and your confidence!

If it wasn't for you,

I would have killed him last night!

I have been betrayed.

- Betrayed! Listen to him!

He has been betrayed! You fool!

No slanders, please!

- Forget it! I'm the one to blame.

Andrs, you better get going.

And good luck.

Should I go back

and guard the horses?

Fool!

- No. I'll look after them.

Who will lead the retreat now?

- Shut up, Gypsy!

Andrs will get to the general.

- Get back in the cave. Pilar,

get everything ready for the bridge.

And get some sleep.

I'll look after the horses.

Look after my things.

Salud!

Don't shoot, comrades.

- Who are you?

A comrade, Andrs Lopez,

with a dispatch for General Golz.

Say the password, if you're a comrade!

- I don't know any password.

Toss a bomb at him.

- No, that would be a great mistake.

He's not alone, Pedro. Toss a bomb!

- No. Please.

I'm completely by myself.

Allow me to show you my papers.

Sure you're alone?

- How many times must I to tell you?

Stand up!

Put your hands above your head!

Come on!

I'm in a big hurry. I have a dispatch

for General Golz at Navacerrada.

Where? - Inside my shirt. How can I

show it to you with my hands up?

You're a long way from Navacerrada.

I will take you to Captain Gmez.

Spy!

I brought your robe.

I'll fix it for you.

Was this your idea or Pilar's?

Mine.

But Pilar told me to come.

Even if she'd told me not to come,

I would have come.

Will there be fighting tomorrow?

- Are you afraid?

I'm afraid for you so much

I do not think of me.

Pilar told me that

I'm to go with you, after the bridge.

That you'll take me to the Republic.

- You and Pilar will have horses.

You'll be safe with Pilar.

That leaves 3 horses for the others.

But I go with you, not Pilar.

I came on foot with the old man

and shall go the same way. - No!

Pilar says no one

will get out alive without a horse.

But if Andrs gets through,

there will be no bridge, will there?
