plan to have a modestly empire.

For the British Empire!

And Persia.

Country with 5,000 years of poetry.

Why do I empty glass?

Where's the champagne?

What spices!

I do not believe.

- And birds.

- Nightingale.

When you cry in the pillow at night,

it always makes me happy.

It? I think only the males sing.

- Do not ruin my joy.

- Sorry, Flo...

Good!

- I'm Henry Cadogan.

I am... - Henry's Secretary of the Embassy.

In fact just the third secretary.

Ms. Bell will welcome Her Majesty Queen

Embassy.

A chaste Majesty.

I was officially designated to be your protector

and entertain you, so...

If you need anything, give me

know.

I will.

Henry.

Henry, please show us your special

kick.

Florence, meals not even free.

Please.

No, I'm not circus artist.

It has two incredible special shots.

Show us "Orbit the Moon".

Florence, it's embarrassing.

- How is called the second hit?

- "Leap frog."

Henry, show us your

trick with cards.

It has the best trick of all.

- Really?

- Please.

Florence, it's a stupid trick. No!

Come, come.

Ms. Bell, I can suggest you remove

bed on the roof, open sky.

Indeed I like stars at night.

Although

you have to dress the bed with a mosquito net.

The mosquitoes are terrible.

- Mrs. Lascelles, do not get bored?

- No.

Oh, no. No no no.

Florence. Florence,

you come, please?

Now?

New Italian ambassador has a gift for you.

- Henry, I'll be right back.

- Good.

It's like garden Beast.

's A perfect nightmare of flowers and sentiment.

Mr Cadogan

know somehow that says this inscription?

Yes.

It's written in Farsi.

But the medieval form of the language.

You have read it?

"With them, we sow the seed of wisdom"

"And with my own hand I worked

to increase..."

"And that was all harvest

I picked it"

"

Income have water and I went like the wind."

Miss Bell, poetic art know?

- You know Omar Khayyam.

- Yes.

I want to learn their language.

Dear mother

I use the opportunity to send you this letter

With diplomatic bag today.

My first week was precious

and I started to learn Farsi,

To them

poets read their original language.

Mr. Cadogan, who works at the embassy

was a great help in this regard.

E agreeable, intelligent, read

And takes care of me and Florence.

I love him.

Today invited us to ride.

- But Henry does not know how to ride.

- You can.

If you fall?

- Hopefully that will not happen.

- I hate when riding.

- Why not join us?

- I'm afraid of horses.

Pa.

Miss Bell.

That's my favorite place in all rural areas.

In late winter, when the water level is

very high

Shepherds with their flocks swim to pasture in the summer.

Sometimes thousand sheep.

Werner Herzog (German: [ˈvɛɐ̯nɐ ˈhɛɐ̯tsoːk]; born 5 September 1942) is a German screenwriter, film director, author, actor, and opera director. Herzog is a figure of the New German Cinema, along with Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Margarethe von Trotta, Volker Schlöndorff, Werner Schröter, and Wim Wenders. Herzog's films often feature ambitious protagonists with impossible dreams, people with unique talents in obscure fields, or individuals who are in conflict with nature.French filmmaker François Truffaut once called Herzog "the most important film director alive." American film critic Roger Ebert said that Herzog "has never created a single film that is compromised, shameful, made for pragmatic reasons, or uninteresting. Even his failures are spectacular." He was named one of the world's 100 most influential people by Time magazine in 2009. more…
