Get them out! - Understood!
Damn land! Damn weather!
Come on! It's piss cold,
Have you heard the stories about the area? You will not be here for a long time,
Why does he have a sack over his head? - No idea, We got him like that,
Maybe he's a spy? - Take it off and let's see him,
Spare us, we're just actors,
We perform for wounded soldiers,
We're not soldiers, We're,,, Actors,
I do not speak German, This is my wife, We have two children,
How do you say it in German? Children! We have two children!
Who is he? - No idea, But not the driver,
I think he's an actor, They perform for people,
Hello, may we see some theater?
May we shoot the driver at all?
Shut up, idiot! I want to see how the communists portray the leader,
You bastard! Perform, or I'll shoot your legs off!
And afterwards you can watch, while we shoot the bitch!
Do you think he understood? - Then translate it!
I can not, I only know a few Russian words,
Translate! It is an order,
Show it, Show it,
Show what?
Show it!
Say theater, - Show us theater,
Theater? - He wants to see theater,
I understand, I understand, A moment,
Lenya, they're going to kill us, - Take it easy, Nina…
This is our chance, He said, that he might want to let us go,
Nina, I love you so much,
Pay attention, pay attention!
Germany above all,
This is our new play! Germany! Play!
What is he talking about? - Have no idea, It's pure nonsense,
Stop it, they're going to shoot us! - Stop! It is not fun,
I'll show you real theater,
Pay attention!
Gun ready!
Fader in front of,,,
Who's shooting? - I can not see anyone!
And people don't believe in God!
But God exists!
Thank you! Thank you very much!
Where are you from? Where are the others?
Are you alone,
They took me and my wife yesterday,
They stopped us in our car, They killed the driver, His name was Yura,
The fascists… Do not take care that I look like Hitler!
We are actors and performers for the wounded, I hate Hitler,
I hate that asshole, Thanks!
Hello… Wait! Wait!
What's your name?
THE RED GHOST
In 1941, the germans broke through it soviet defense west of Vjazma,
400,000 died and 500,000 disappeared, 85,000 managed to escape,
They were looking for their countrymen in small groups or alone,
Somewhere near the town of Medyn,
Get up! Up!
No tricks!
Constantine, check him out!
I do not belong to the enemy,
I'm a friend, - We'll see,
Why are you laughing? Get out of here!
Go!
I wish it was summer, Then we could visit my country house,
The feet are stuck in the sand, it's so hot,
The lake is lukewarm, like fresh milk,
Afterwards you run up to the house, where a barrel of beer awaits,
You drink the whole glass in one tear,
Right now I could settle for hot beer,
It's just us,
We found him in the woods, He was about to freeze to death,
Is he german? - He looks like a russian,
Do we have to get his overcoat? - Sergeant, take it off,
Here you go,
Here, take some, - Do not settle down too well,
Get ready to go, Go now!
Why did we take him with us? We could have shot him,
Shot him? Without knowing who he is?
And if he's one of us? - I do not think, He's a deserter,
What now? - Now the lieutenant must carry him,
Put him down,
My back!
Save your energy and keep your mouth shut!
Oh, hold on! - Get up,
It's not hard to talk nonsense,
Do you have a cigarette?
Lie still!
You need to go to the hospital, Lie still so the wound doesn't pop up,
How far is it again? - We should reach my friend tomorrow,
Does your friend like home-burnt? - You long for that, don't you?
I am just honest! - Stop now!
You're talking nonsense all the time,
That's my personality, lieutenant,
Now I have to tell you about personality,
The Germans were to shoot three prisoners, They placed them up against the wall,
A russian, a british and a frenchman,
The germans were so damn friendly, they wanted to fulfill their last wish,
The British wanted whiskey,
They picked up a bottle and he drank, The frenchman wanted champagne,
So they gave him champagne, and said: "And what do you want, Russian friend?"
I wish someone would kick my ass,
"Is that your last wish?" - "Yes,"
So the coolest german kicked him in the ass
so he flew like a cannonball, into the wall and back towards the german,
Here he took a machine gun and shot them all,
The British asked "Why didn't you shoot them in the first place?"
"It's my personality", - There you can see!
If we russians don't get a kick in the ass, we don't touch a finger,
I know a different story with a different ending, but about the same people,
They're captured, and the germans say,
"We release the man who hits the sparrow,"
They pour, the frenchman drinks, but he misses, so they shoot him,
The same thing is happening to the british, The russian want vodka and not champagne…
Kolya…
Kolya!
Kolya! You don't have to! You don't have to!
Come on, help him!
Kolya, you don't have to!
He's dead! He's dead,
It's beautiful here,
61 victims including in these two months,
Why do you think there is a connection between the killings?
We think it's action about a single sniper,
Our soldiers are calling him "The Red Ghost",
You are therefore unable to liquidate a single man,
Now it's your job, captain, Klein puts you into the details,
Good luck,
Now tell me about this "Red ghost",
Where's my machine gun? - You get it for a smoke,
Let go,
Give it to me,
How long have you been on the road?
Far too long,
We're broken through, so we are constantly on the move,
It will soon be easier, When we've got rid of you,
Relax, it was a joke,
But if you do that again, you're dead, - Understood,
Boys, wake up! Up with you!
Constantine, come here!
I can not see anyone,
Not a soul,
Check the load, Kostya,
Call them,
What are you doing?
Have you gone crazy? Stop!
Did not you see what he did? - Then relax, damn it!
You idiot! He saved your life!
My friend never has a vodka at home,
It's all poisoned! A surprise partisans, Or the shooter,
Ten people in the neighboring town died of the same poisoning,
You ought to thank them, fool!
But why?
Don't look so happy, Everything is poisoned, Even the booze, Smart Germans!
When will we be full again?
I need clean clothes, - Look in the coffin,
That's great!
Haven't you seen a pregnant woman?
But how? - Don't you know where children come from?
I'm a fool, - Is this working?
Yes,
Three days ago, six of our men fell in Nizovskaya,
In the city of Ivanovo fell there two of our soldiers,
And sixteen died there in the city of Lenskoye,
You like to go to Banya,
Sorry? - Banya, Like a sauna, steam only,
No, I can't, - Not even in this cold?"
You heard of black banya? - Yes, there is one nearby,
German saunas are glorious, but one banya black is a real challenge,
You warm up to the end in your bones, That's what says a lot about the Russians,
You should study your enemies, How they live, think and wash,
The russians enjoy extreme, They like hard life,
They have no choice, haven't they? - No, Where is that banya?
Not far from here, - Is the area secured?
Yes, that's my area, - Then we will go there,
Stop the column!
Do not touch anything on the table, Listen carefully:
We're heading for the city and looking for things like matches,
Then we find our people,
You can rest a little, - No, I'm going with you,
Stay with her, - Me?
No, him, - Sergeant, you answer,
Understood,
Damn it, too,
Well done,
Just enter,
What are you looking at?
Bait for partisans,
Is that your idea? - Yes, and it works,
Last week, there were 10 russian soldiers killed here,
See here, captain, The Russians worship two gods,
Do you think we're different? - I'm sorry,
Clean the table!
I'm hungry, Get the food, Klein, - Yes,
Hurry up!
Be quiet! The germans are here,
Jesus Christ! Where is Vera? - There,
You did not obey my orders, - Should I have attacked them myself?
Thirty Germans, and I have almost no cartridges, I was just going to take a piss,
You were looking for booze, you satan! - So what?
You want to shoot me now or what?
What are we doing?
Hei,,, Gunther, look here!
A present on the eastern front,
We'll take a picture,
Stay there, - Give it to me,
All right,,, Look here!
Can you keep it?
Have you fallen in love?
He's dancing with a russian girl!
Was that girl? - No, the madpeople have fun,
Do not play with food,
You have disciplinary problems,
Don't be so strict, captain, They're tired and having a little fun,
The soldiers are not having fun, The officers do,
And three near the levee,
Sixteen on the farm, God must know how many are inside,
Not 30 anyway, - Come on, stop it!
We are waiting, - For how long?
Keep an eye on the farm, Reports on all movements,
With God's help, they go away, - And what else?
Then we improvisate,
Check the ammo, We're going to go by the sun, If she's still alive,
Tell me, Klein, Do you believe in the Red Phantom?
I don't know, But according to witnesses,
Then he shows up when you least expect it, and is huge and strong,
There's a russian proverb that says: "The horror has big eyes,"
The barbaric ritual of removing the epaulettes must be the idea of partisans,
No, I don't think so that peasants would lie about it,
If it is as described, I wish I knew him,
It's very cold here, - Gunther, warms up the house!
Yes,
Chef, when is it finished? - Don't worry,,,
in a minute, - Hurry up! I'm hungry,
Don't press me,
Hi, icicle, come here!
Now you take a look,
I can't see anything from here, Look!
They're in the banya, - Are they in the banya?
Germans? That's a hell of a thing!
Are you going to have to grill here, Braun?
What's his eye? War damage? - Not at all,
He stole apples in his childhood, and the owner went out and fired with a gun,
The kid fell out of the tree and he got a branch in his eyes,
And that was my apple tree,
So I feel responsible for him,,,
Before God, This is connected,
But he has become a good hunter,
Why are we here? - Would you prefer to face death?
We must be cunning, Like the ghost,
Like who? - The Red Ghost,
The sauna is ready in an hour,
I would not go to the sauna if I were you, That's not a good idea,
First, it is called a banya, and secondly you are not me…
But I… - Third: Do not interrupt me!
Yes, commander,
Get up!
This is the worst unit who have ever met!
Fourth, I am not interested in your opinion!
If you do not understand, then you belong outside!
Then you can play with the pigs! Understood?
Yes, commander!
Well,
Let's just leave it at that, The young soldier is going to have a shock,
What's your name? - Gunther,
Gunther…
Sit,
I hope we get rid of him, - Yes, he makes me nervous,
You know what they call the commander?
Brown? - The executioner Braun,
And do you know why he is called that?
I do not want to know!
But I'd rather hunt ghosts, than fight at the front,
Yes, I want to too,
He's been grabbing them all winter,
When a German falls behind or stays away, the ghost strikes,
He kills them and then disappears without a trace,
He has killed hundreds,
And as a hallmark, he's turning off the officers' epaulets,
He psychs them, Fills them with fear,
A hundred germans? - What?
A hundred germans? - At least,
They burned our city down,
Only me and Constantine survived, We were in the woods,
So we have a hen at pick with the Germans,
And now they've killed my friend too,
I was going to lead the boys to the front,
join forces with the partisans, and show the fascists what we stand for,
But now we have to do something about it, - Has one person killed a hundred?
Has one person killed a hundred?
Maybe he's immortal, - Perhaps,
I haven't met him, but people say so,
You are nothing alone,
Well, are you ready to eat the east front's best meal?
Gunther, you're such a prodigy, How long is the Great Wall of China?
In a straight line it is 2,450 km,
If you include all branches, then it is 8,851 km,
Well, But how much will be…
… 375 times 835?
I do not know,
Muller, what do you have there?
Well, this one, I found it, - The devil's drink is dangerous!
We must not drink home-brewed,
I also want to taste, Understood?
Soldier!
Is there something wrong?
Well, hey!
Bravo, Gunther, You're a real German knight,
But we can not let her lie there, You just do not do something like that,
Came!
In what month are you? - In what month are you?
Give me some water,
She wants some water, - Let her answer first,
Can you please answer the question? Your life depends on it,
Yes, Eighth month, Plus two weeks,
In the eighth month, - Then it's not far back,
And what did she do in the coffin? - How did you end up here?
I live here, - She lives here,
Does she live in the coffin? It must be inconvenient!
The sauna is ready! - Finally,
She belongs to the family here,
Commander…
She is not in the picture,
I… too wild in the woods,
And then I found the farm here,
I found myself at ease, but then you came and scared me,
Gunther…
The house belongs to her relatives,
She sought food and shelter here,
Then she got scared and hid in the coffin,
I do not believe a word of that,
Do not be so suspicious, Klein, She's hardly the ghost,
Now tell the truth, Otherwise we'll kill you,
Do you know about The Red Ghost?
Do not worry, No one will kill you,
Do you know about The Red Ghost? - Who?
The Red Ghost, - No, I know nothing!
You must not kill me! Think of the child!
Mercy! Let me go! I have not done anything!
Hauptsturmführer, I knew it! - What is it now?
This is yours,
Sad, Really sad,
You were not honest, Vera…
You know what you need, Klein,
No, I do not need an interpreter,
Gunther, have you ever killed a woman?
You will have to get used to it to that, Gunther, There is a war,
Food is ready, Can you smell it?
Roast pork, Yes,,,
The pig sleeps like a child,
If it wasn't for him, we'd have a feast now,
Hei, don't disturb me! I'm never going to finish this letter,
To hell with them…
What's going on in there? - What is going on?
They have found a woman, Everything is in the best order,
What happens to the music?
Put "Marika" on hurry up!
At Officer Schmidt's request…
Singing now…
the fantastic… Marika Rökk!
Fantastic! She is wonderful!
Vera…
We can kill them if we're quiet, - We can't do that,
We can not do anything, - We can not let her down!
Where are you going? - They've gone insane!
Turn off the music,
Do you think it helps her?
Sir, Haupner, she's pregnant, Is it really necessary?
You're right, She does not deserve that attention,
One bullet is enough,
You will not survive long here,
What did she say? - You die, You'll suffer,
As I do now, Or worse,
Translate! - She says God will punish you,
God, you say…
Take it, You have two minutes,
I don't want to expose you,
Vera…
Who was it that shot?
It's him!
Stop! - I'm going to left, you're to right, Now!
So you had secured the area?
Machine gun! Down!
Give me your weapon! - I do not have it,
I count to three,
I'll show them,,,
One…
Two,,,
Three!
Vera!
Okay, here we go,
Go with you!
How many are they?
I get it for three, - It's him! He really exists!
The Red Ghost! - Stop it!
Give me the gun!
Chef,,,
What should we do, commander?
We have a car!
Bucãtare… - Yes?
Shoot at the banya when I say to,
Okay, - Chef is hurt!
It does not mean anything, It's just a scratch,
I count to three, - Okay,
One…
Two,,,
Three!
Do not give me orders!
My God, I'm not even that fast!
What can you see? - He has disappeared,
Kostya, the door…
My God, can it be him?
Who? - The ghost, of course,
See how he feels!
He lives,
He does not die so easily! Did you see how many he killed?
What a warrior,
It's for Kostya, - Yes, go over to him,
Did you see how I killed the soldier with the machine gun?
My eyes are still sharp, And the Germans shit their pants!
I knew something bad was going to happen when you left,
I did too,
Here you are, Kostya,
Your satan! - Everyone is against me,
We're here now,
And where is Taraskovo? - Here,
And the Germans? - There,
Then we go via Taraskovo,
I know every stone around here, With or without map,
Where did your friend hide his booze? - You only think of booze!
There is so much food!
Hot food, a banya,,, I guarantee there's booze here!
I have lice everywhere! - Look, here's a hole in the Germans' front,
With a little luck, we will find our people tomorrow,
And him? Should we carry him? - If necessary, That's enough!
Get ready to go!
It's coming now,
What in the world are you doing? - Arman…
Two more over here! - We're losing precious time, Arman,
It takes to long, What?
Who the hell is that?
Fantastic…
Kostya, open the door for me!
I can't believe we're going to be another one! Vera's one of us,
Come on! Let me hold your legs, Push!
With God's help, you can do this, Breathe!
Breathe like this, - What are they doing here?
Get lost! Out with you!
Is this your first? I've done it three times before,
Hold her tight! - Push! That's it!
Good girl!
With God's help, you get your son, - I can not!
Well, you can! In the past, females gave birth in a haystack,
I will not!
Why are you so quiet? Say something, - What?
Tell the story of the sparrows,
The Russian asked for vodka, He drank a glass and got another,
Then he drank it, and got a third glass, And then he got really drunk,
Breathe like this! Like yes!
He took the gun and shot the sparrow into small pieces,
The Germans asked: "How could you hit it?"
And the Russian replied: "It is not a problem when are sparrows everywhere!"
That was fun,
Good! - Tell me it's going to be okay!
Think it's over soon…
It's like when you have to shit, but you can't, Try again!
Here,
What is it? - The ghost had it, It's him,
He looked different as a child, I did too,
Hand it back, - Yes,
Push! Such! Well done!
Such! Here he is,
Such,
Nonsense! Come here! Give me the knife,
Hold it over the fire,
My child…
God help me…
Such!
Is it a boy? - Yes,
And you who said you couldn't!
"I will not!"
The Germans are coming, He can smell it,
Yes I know it!
Get ready for battle,
They were five, - Are you kidding, commander?
I did not hear what you said, How many were they? Five?
And how many soldiers were you? - Arman! Arman!
Empty it, - Yes,
Or wait… is there maybe five red ghosts?
There is no ghost, Only a handful of freezing partisans,
Guys! Mortars!
Get out of here!
Guys!
Sneak in and hide! Wait!
Forgive me, my boy, Forgive me for everything,
Go!
Guys!
Come closer,
Get a little closer,
Closer, A little closer,
German pig! Try to take me alive!
Give me a couple of soldiers and I'll take care of it myself,
Colonel, give me the opportunity to get redress,
Okay,
Forward!
Go!
Taste it here!
How many are they? - Three,
Now you must get!
Stick me the gun!
Suck my balls!
Guys!
Higher!
At my command, You, you and you come with me,
Now you can answer to God,
You and you, Came!
Are you shaking your pants?
Damn pigs!
Forward! Faster!
You little satan!
Calm down, little darling…
Now you have to get more!
Give me the gun! Faster!
Cartridges,
What are you doing?
Like, everything's fine,
It shut them up,
Grenade!
Do you live? - We're in full swing!
This is my home!
Over here!
Here!
Lieutenant!
I told you I'd find it!
You two, go!
Goodbye!
What's wrong with you? Show me your face!
Here's some painkillers!
You live! We must not fucking die!
Come here!
I Killed The Red Ghost!
I did it!
Wait here, I just have to…
Who are you?
I'm just an actor, - Are you the Red Ghost?
No, you do not understand, I'm an actor,
I'm not a partisan, I perform at the hospital…
For the wounded…
In the hidden partisans, You will be punished,
But, if you tell the truth, then we forgive you,
Then you get german preserves from us,
Who's seen The Red Ghost?
Your buddy is going to suffer a horrible death, We do not want that,
Who's seen The Red Ghost?
I have seen him,
Speak louder,
It's just a ghost, Nothing special,
There is a road to Bereznyaki,
And then a narrow road leading to a ravine,
Do you understand me? - Yes,
After 500 meters…
Now the ground is covered in snow, so you have to fight your way forward,
Hurry so you do not catch a cold,
What? - Do not stress me,
Walk until you reach a clearing to the north,
Then you reach a landmark,
A german truck, And around it there are four of your soldiers,
It was they who found the ghost,
And you should probably find him too,
Amusing,,,
An actor… - Finally fell five!
You finally got it! You're a fascist and I'm an artist!
I can sing too!
Rise, my country too soon,
Do you hear a call,
We must bring down the fascists,
Those who took our land…
Shoot him!
Sir, actor is that the Red Ghost?
