poison.
Gentlemen, we will leave promptly
by that gate.
Without waiting for the toast?
Good things are tastier
in little doses.
Larissa Dmitrievna,
we're waiting for you.
- Goodbye, mama.
- Where are you going?
Either you'll be happy for me,
or look for me in the Volga.
- Don't be a fool...
- One can't escape one's own fate.
Larissa... You're insane...
Don't do it!
You've gone too far.
Larissa, do you hear me?
Stay here!
Do I have to stop you by force?
Please, wait!
Where are you all going?
Gentlemen, here I am...
Where are you?
Auntie, have you seen
my fiancee?
Ivan! Where did
all the gentlemen go?
And Larissa Dmitrievna?
I believe everyone went
on board the "Swallow".
What do you mean, the "Swallow"?
Vozhevatov is giving a party to
celebrate the purchase of the ship.
The purchase?
They brought along Gypsies
to have some music...
What Gypsies?
And Larissa Dmitrievna too?
How is this possible?
Kharita Ignatievna...
Where's your daughter? Answer me.
I brought my daughter to your
house, Yuli Kapitonovich.
It's up to you to tell me
where my daughter is.
Why... they planned it...
They're all immoral, they're cruel.
You celebrated too early.
Yes, stupid, isn't it?
I'm ridiculous.
But can you condemn anyone
for being ridiculous?
All right, so I'm that way!
Laugh in my face!
Go on, eat, drink my wine...
But to pierce a man's heart
because he's ridiculous...
Get a hold of yourself,
she isn't worth the trouble!
And they're not all bandits.
They are honorable people,
they're all your friends.
I wasn't aware of anything.
You're all from the same band.
Don't forget though...
Even the meekest man
can get furious.
- What did he take?
- A pistol.
No fear anymore,
no law, no mercy!
Run! Catch him!
Stop him!
Yuli Kapitonovich! Stop!
The "Swallow" will leave
with her first passengers,
and I'll go to Paris, to the World
Fair. How I love foreign countries!
Today, gentlemen...
Today I have a very strange
feeling.
I'm on the "Swallow"
for the first time as a guest.
Let's have a drink, Captain.
We've been everywhere
on the Volga with you.
Thank you, Captain.
Shall we play our song, Ilya?
A cask of wine for the crew.
Seryozha, give me the guitar.
Life is too short,
as the philosophers say.
Let's take advantage of it!
I've never been so hungry as now,
after that dinner party.
It's better to forget it.
It's all in the past.
The white moth to the closing bine,
The red crane to her reed,
And the Romany lass to the Romany lad
By the tie of a roving breed.
Follow the Romany patteran
North where the blue bergs sail,
And the bows are gray with the frozen
spray,
And the masts are shod with mail.
Both to the road again, again!
Out on a clean sea-track -
Follow the cross of the gipsy trail
Over the world and back!
Follow the Romany patteran
East where the silence broods
By a purple wave on an opal beach
In the hush of the Mahim woods.
Follow the Romany patteran
Sheer to the Austral Light,
Where the besom of God is the wild
South wind,
Sweeping the sea-floors white.
Follow the Romany patteran
West to the sinking sun,
Till the junk-sails lift through
the houseless drift,
And the east and the west are one.
Larissa Dmitrievna!
Do us all a favour. Dance for us.
Yes, please, we beg you.
- I'm embarrassed.
- Please, don't refuse us.
Everyone is asking you.
Larissa Dmitrievna,
you must go home now.
I'm not going back home.
But it is impossible for you
to stay here.
No, Sergey Sergeyevich,
stop your fancy talk.
Give me a straight answer,
am I your wife now or not?
Think about the rumors you'll be
the source of if you don't go.
You brought me here,
so you'll bring me home.
My mother is waiting
to give us her blessing.
I don't think you have the right
to ask that.
You were the one who said...
Give up everything and I'm yours.
We might talk about it some time,
not now...
We'll talk now.
- Do you insist?
- Yes, I do.
Very
