you...
- I insist again
that I will not abandon the army.
God is merciful.
Mr. Admiral, enter the cell.
Mr. Prime Minister, go ahead.
- How is it there?
- Bad.
Voytsekhovsky...
Sergei Nikolaevich...
We'll take Irkutsk,
expel the Reds,
and free the Admiral.
Take charge of the command.
And tell the troops...
that I remained faithful to them...
I loved my country, I loved them
and proved this by dying
among them...
- Do it... my friend...
- Yes, Sir!
I am trapped...
Irkutsk ahead.
Put on the pace.
You heard, they're saying
Kappel is nearby.
Look, Admiral.
He has gone grey-haired...
Stop, lady. You're not to
be with him any longer.
Okay, but only for a minute.
Anna Vasilievna. Don't let me down.
Hello, Anna!
Kappel's troops are just outside Irkutsk.
They'll set us free.
My love, my darling,
we will get out of here.
- They have issued an ultimatum.
- How do you know?
I overheard from the next cell...
- What are they demanding?
- That you be set free!
Now they will act quickly.
No! No.
Kappel will make it.
Can't be any other way.
Anna Vasilievna,
- it's time.
- Go. Go.
No I can't permit you,
I've allowed you...
Irkutsk.
Attack!
Mr. Kolchak,
on behalf of the Irkutsk
Revolutionary Committee,
we have come to announce
a resolution about you...
I understand. There is no
need for you to continue.
Would you like to make
any requests or statements?
Let me say goodbye to my wife,
Anna Vasilievna Timireva.
This is not possible.
Anything else?
- Here?
- Yes, here.
Would you like to be blindfolded?
No.
- And you?
- No, thank you, there is no need.
Is there something you
would like to say?
Please tell my wife in Paris
that I bless my son.
How many wives do you have?
All right, I will relay the message.
- Farewell, Admiral.
- Farewell.
Aim.
Fire!
Hey, you three. Put their
things in the wagon.
Three of you.
Drag out the next one...
What an odd hole in the ice?
It's baptism thing for
a church celebration.
MOSFILM FILM STUDIO, 1964
Leave these ones, and those we don't need...
I just checked the records.
It's her for sure.
30 years in the camps! Wife
of an enemy of the revolution...
In our patriotic movie...
- Hello.
- It isn't her.
No, big dark fans.
We also don't know if
she has been rehabilitated...
Do you need this?
Excuse me, Anna Vasilievna.
I need faces. Where am I going
to find one like that?
Where?
Ready for the rehearsal!
Take your places!
Break's over... all those involved
in the shoot, on set.
They've brought the carriages.
Can you take a look?
- Yes.
- Okay. And what?
Don't use her even in the crowd scene.
All right... the rehearsal
is starting!
Comrades, quickly,
go to the set.
- All take position.
- Quiet, everyone.
Everyone else off the set!
Sound track!
Waltz! Waiter, roll it!
Come on comrades,
put some life into it!
Step aside, you're in the way.
You won't be in the shoot today.
You're free to go.
What a ball!
