PEPPER & LALASPAIN
There's a tale told
somewhere south of Burma.
It tells of one man's
rendez-vous with death.
A man who, when pushed
far enough, retaliated.
I'll be face-down an army
They say you shake their
heads discounting the legend.
But the fact remains...
It's all true.
I knew the man,
and for a while,
I loved him like a son.
The French hightailed it in '54.
And the US didn't yet
have boots on the ground.
For a while,
Indochina offered safe-haven to men
who had reached the end of the line.
European war criminals, ex-Nazis,
and other undesirables.
Or men with a price on
their head in the west.
Men like...
Martin Tillman.
(He's good)
The tiger and the elephant, gentlemen.
(Speaks French)
Mr Rastignac, may I have the honor?
My name is Jean-Pierre Rastignac.
I have been known by many names.
But the one that I most
commonly associate with,
is "The Executioner".
I face you as an equal,
with the exception of this blade,
They told me if I fought,
I would go free.
This fight was your salvation,
But you lost.
(Great! I like that)
You shouldnt have done
that to the Corporal.
I asked the guards, why a
colonnial police station,
with only one small jail
would keep a prisoner for three years?
They said, only if you knew the answer.
Most prisoners who end
up here, have no hope.
You come twice a week
with flowers for him?
And he turns you away?
I can bring you fruit.
The food here is not healthy.
I don't need your help.
Don't waste your time on me.
You're not a waste of time.
You're just lost.
I'll come see you again,
in case you change you change your mind.
That agent is here again.
He is persistent.
I can kill him if you order it.
The world is changing, Boon.
We must adapt with it.
Isn't it your job to transition
for a brief few years
you need to beholden to the
authority of the French.
Not the Vietnamese.
Mr Harrison, what can I do for you?
Ho Chi Min's strength
in the North grows
as President Diem's influence
in the South diminishes.
The Americans are watching and will
send more advisers within a year.
You and your kind
will have to find a different
fleapit to loot over.
Perhaps...
I might be a valuable assistance
to you when they arrive.
At what price to me?
MI6 would like to
extradite Martin Tillman
to face criminal charges
in Great Britain.
There's no-one of that name here.
You're overlooking a potential
opportunity here, Colonel.
I know what you did in the war.
You'll need a friend like me if
you're gonna deal with the Americans.
Corporal Chef Boon, please
escort Mr Harrison out.
When I was a little girl,
A fighting dog that had
been left for dead.
and felt the ultimate betrayal.
Some animals are not meant
to be caged, Martin.
Why are you talking to me?
You made some bad decisions,
- that's all.
- Mademoiselle.
I'll be back next week.
Good-bye.
Why do you bother coming back for him?
We build our own cages, Martin.
Alcohol is an easy paracil here.
Like Jamaican rum.
It'll help you forget your sins,
without losing your edge.
You assaulted a superior officer in '53.
of a six month sentence.
What does that tell you?
Tells me that I'm not the only
criminal in this room.
In the North you're
just an ex-legionnaire,
with a price on his head. In
the South you're just another
ex-con.
