The Peach Thief Page #2

You bring back my faith in life.

Oh, why do you talk like that?

I love you! And you know that.

I must go!

Stay a while, please!

No... I can't.

Are you really going?

Yes.

Good-by.

Elisaveta!

Where have you been?

Lisa, what's wrong with you?

Nothing. I went to church.

Colonel!

Colonel!

Don't you remember me?

Varenov!

Petio!

Peter!

I didn't know that you went to the front

I was in father's division.

Why?

At war all are equal, sir.

Excuse me.

Good day madam!

Good day!

Thank you!

May I report, here?

Please, listen to me.

What is it?

Catastrophe is round the corner.

The soldiers are hungry.

They're in rags.

No officers, all killed.

They're angry.

If something's not done now

the soldiers will leave the trenches.

All will be in vain.

Bulgarian soldiers have seen

worse than that!

Our hopes are with them.

They're tired, sir.

They're dead tired.

Well Varenov, thank you

for your honesty.

Now go and rest.

Why do your torture yourself?

Why do your torture yourself?

You've done your bit.

Be silent. You don't understand.

Peace is the banner of the weak.

The strong raise it only

to justify an offensive.

- To justify absurdity!

- No...

War has been and still remains

the normal state

of our poor human race.

Not a very attractive philosophy.

I'm afraid for you, my friend.

Love makes you idealize things.

You could forget what you are.

It's what I want!

- Too selfish on her part.

- Why?

She doesn't suspect how hard it is

for a man in love to be imprisoned.

What if she is a prisoner too?

Even then...

Women seek only their own slavation.

Let's drop the subject.

- Is it so serious?

- Yes.

You're being a fool.

Have you never been in love?

- Never!

- Never?

Good luck! And watch out!

What are you doing here?

Are you crazy?

What's happened?

Why stare at me like that?

Am I to blame for something?

I'm rather the one to blame.

What's with you?

Don't Mr. Obrenovitch!

Please, go away.

There can be nothing between us.

No, you're not right!

You say this on purpose...

You suffer... I felt it the first time.

This is what brings me here.

It wasn't out of compassion then...

Forget it. Leave me alone.

And don't think of it anymore!

It's useless.

I won't leave. Even if you ask me to.

You aren't happy.

It's absurd to talk about happiness.

You have the right to be.

You have!

You don't love this man.

You have no right!

He's my husband.

Yes, indeed, he's your husband.

It's good you've realized it.

I thought you were different.

You've fooled yourself.

You've fooled me!

Rudeness doesn't fit you.

Now please, go!

I will but you take off that mask

of kindness and suffering.

Someone else might be fooled.
