Kazan!
To Kazan!
Listen, Khan!
It is Kazan which is small...
and Moscow
which is great.
To Kazan!
You will command the first regiment.
To Kazan!
To Kazan!
To Kazan!
To Kazan!
Misery
Misery, sorrow
The Tartar Steppes
The unclaimed coins
at the end of the battle
will indicate the number of our losses.
One... two... heave!
The tunnel can now be packed
with gunpowder.
At last!
After a month of waiting!
It's certainly time to start the attack!
Tunnels and powder:
the Tsar's own invention!
You don't think my gunpowder will work?
Horsemanship.
Parades...
That's all you understand.
Shout, 'Surrender Kazan'.
Ooooh! Kazan!
It is better that you die
by our hands
than by those of the uncircumcised.
Such bestiality is madness.
It's stupid, revolting!
Even an untrained beast
has got more restraint.
He has dared to raise his hand
against the Tsar!
I wanted to protect you from the arrows.
If that was your reason,
thank you.
The Baltic ambassador was right.
Compared to him,
I'll never be more than a cur!
Some arrows arrive
at just the right moment!
Even deadlier than arrows
is the boyars' hatred.
Beware of boyars more than arrows.
Your name?
Alexei Basmanov, son of Daniel.
I shall not forget the name
of one who hates the boyars.
Look, Fyodor, look my son!
The Tsar of all the Russias.
The Tsar!
To Kazan!
Support Kurbsky!
Now I am truly Tsar.
The whole world will acknowledge
the Tsar of Moscow
as the true ruler of all the Russias.
How is the Tsar of Moscow's health?
The Tsar is very ill.
The Tsar fell ill while still
on the journey back from Kazan.
So now even you acknowledge him as Tsar!
God is just.
This Muscovite prince wanted to set himself
above all other princes!
And now it's all over!
Well, Prince, always second best?
You loved Anastasia.
Ivan took her from you.
You fought the battle of Kazan.
Yet it is Ivan who is the hero
and who has all the glory,
whilst you...
Ah! Prince, your conquest of Kazan
has only added to your misfortune
as well as to that of the boyars.
As for your head,
that won't stay on your shoulders.
The Tsar won't forget the arrow at Kazan.
And if he should forget,
there will always be someone
to remind him.
The eye of the Tsar.
Malyuta!
As long as Ivan lives,
Kurbsky will only stagnate.
God is good!
They are bringing the Tsar
the Holy Sacraments.
It is their custom,
just before death.
Lord, have mercy on my soul.
Lord have mercy!
Lord have mercy!
Lord have mercy!
To whom will you swear
an oath of allegiance?
To Dmitri, the heir apparent.
To Ivan's son.
And Anastasia!
It's the widow's still-warm bed
which fills your thoughts.
You want to make her your mistress.
Swear allegiance to Vladimir.
Money doesn't buy men like you.
They have to be offered a kingdom.
With Vladimir on the throne
it is you who will act as regent.
He is worse than a child.
He is moronic.
You will be absolute master!
Swear allegiance to Vladimir.
The Tsar is calling.
The end is near.
I bid the world farewell.
Swear allegiance to my legitimate heir...
Dmitri.
Swear loyalty to my son.
Swear allegiance to my son!
Only an undivided, legitimate throne,
will save Moscow
from her enemies and internecine conflict,
without which the Tartars
will again violate our frontiers,
the Poles and the Livonians encroach.
I don't entreat you for me or my son
but for the unity of the Motherland!
Palitsky!
Ivan!
Turuntai-Pronsky!
Kolychev, the Wise!
Daniel Bogdany!
You, give an example.
Kolychev, the Unconquerable,
why don't you speak?
Kurletov!
Funikov!
You will be cursed forever.
Traitors to the Russian Earth.
All of you will be cursed...
cursed for all eternity!
Only Dmitri... his son...
can save Russia.
Once you have rejected undivided authority,
no matter how strong, courageous,
intelligent you may be,
your government will be directionless.
Your feuds and hatreds
will deliver you up to the foreigner.
