Movie Dialogue Sample
307 00:31:08,077 --> 00:31:11,706 The richest prize in all the world,
Father. 308 00:31:11,873 --> 00:31:16,336 - That's why I've returned for a new ship.
- What?! 309 00:31:18,129 --> 00:31:21,132 I've found the bell. 310 00:31:21,549 --> 00:31:24,135 - You found it?
- Yes, Father. 311 00:31:25,386 --> 00:31:27,722 - I don't believe you.
- I found it. 312 00:31:27,889 --> 00:31:31,684 Nothing else would've brought me back
after losing my ship. 313 00:31:31,851 --> 00:31:33,394 - You're lying!
- I'm not! 314 00:31:33,561 --> 00:31:37,065 The girl was just repeating
some old legend. 315 00:31:37,232 --> 00:31:42,195 I tell you I've found it.
I've heard it. I've seen it. 316 00:31:42,362 --> 00:31:44,656 - You've seen it?
- Yes. 317 00:31:44,822 --> 00:31:46,824 Where? 318 00:31:47,617 --> 00:31:51,454 - What?
- Where have you seen it? 319 00:31:51,746 --> 00:31:55,959 Many leagues to the south.
In Moorish Barbary. 320 00:31:56,125 --> 00:32:00,839 You see, we'd been running
before a storm when we ran into fog. 321 00:32:01,005 --> 00:32:04,050 And then through the mist,
we heard it. 322 00:32:04,217 --> 00:32:09,389 Booming away like a god's hammer
on a mountain of ice. 323 00:32:10,348 --> 00:32:14,394 - The bell of Byzantium.
- How did you know it was the bell? 324 00:32:14,561 --> 00:32:19,190 - How could you be sure?
- It had to be. It could be nothing else. 325 00:32:19,357 --> 00:32:21,526 - I don't believe you.
- Wait. 326 00:32:21,693 --> 00:32:25,029 - He might be telling the truth.
- No, he's a liar! 327 00:32:25,196 --> 00:32:28,491 Always has been a liar,
always will be a liar! 328 00:32:28,658 --> 00:32:32,912 That's the way it goes.
The truth, nobody ever believes me. 329 00:32:33,079 --> 00:32:36,040 But this time, Father... 330 00:32:36,249 --> 00:32:39,419 ...I think you'll have to believe me.
- Why? 331 00:32:39,586 --> 00:32:44,048 A thane whose entire fortune
consists of two gold pieces... 332 00:32:44,215 --> 00:32:49,429 ...must believe in the offer
of a bell of solid gold. 333 00:32:49,596 --> 00:32:53,433 - Solid gold?
- Solid gold. 334 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,520 As tall as three tall men. 335 00:32:57,687 --> 00:33:01,024 - Three tall men?
- Yes. 336 00:33:01,191 --> 00:33:05,069 I swear to you by all the gods,
I'm telling the truth. 337 00:33:05,236 --> 00:33:08,615 Don't swear by the gods.
They have deserted me. 338 00:33:08,781 --> 00:33:15,038 But I know the bell exists.
I can get it for you. All I need is a ship. 339 00:33:15,580 --> 00:33:21,377 But how can a thane with only two gold
pieces find or even equip another ship? 340 00:33:21,544 --> 00:33:23,213 I can arrange all that. 341 00:33:23,379 --> 00:33:27,383 - Because of you, I have nothing left.
- Yes, you do. 342 00:33:27,550 --> 00:33:30,637 You do have something. 343 00:33:33,056 --> 00:33:38,603 - You have the finest ship in the North.
- Not that ship! That's the king's ship! 344 00:33:38,770 --> 00:33:41,856 It's your ship.
It was built by your men. 345 00:33:42,023 --> 00:33:45,652 - It's King Harald's ship!
- He practically stole it! 346 00:33:45,818 --> 00:33:47,320 But he paid for it. 347 00:33:47,487 --> 00:33:51,115 Harald cheated you.
It's still your ship. 348 00:33:51,282 --> 00:33:54,035 He speaks the truth. 349 00:33:55,119 --> 00:33:58,164 But what about a crew? 350 00:33:59,165 --> 00:34:01,626 Getting a crew will be no problem. 351 00:34:01,793 --> 00:34:05,964 One whisper of a golden bell
and you could fill 100 ships. 352 00:34:06,130 --> 00:34:09,425 - Right.
- They may not be as credulous as I am. 353 00:34:09,592 --> 00:34:12,136 Now, you just leave the crew to us. 354 00:34:12,303 --> 00:34:14,973 - And the king?
- And leave him to us. 355 00:34:15,139 --> 00:34:19,018 - He'll hang me.
- He won't hang you. He'll hang no one. 356 00:34:19,185 --> 00:34:21,521 He'll harm no one. 357 00:34:21,688 --> 00:34:24,566 We'll take a hostage... 358 00:34:30,363 --> 00:34:33,616 The forward stay is slack. Tighten it. 359 00:34:35,869 --> 00:34:39,247 - Check those barrels.
- Good evening, shipmaster. 360 00:34:39,789 --> 00:34:41,040 What do you want? 361 00:34:41,207 --> 00:34:45,044 - King Harald ordered us to bring you ale.
- King Harald? 362 00:34:45,211 --> 00:34:48,631 Just to whet your whistles
before you sail. 363 00:34:49,799 --> 00:34:53,303 - All right.
- Right, bring them aboard. 364 00:35:03,646 --> 00:35:05,148 You all right? 365 00:35:05,315 --> 00:35:10,195 - I wish it were anyone but Gerda.
- No one else will do. Go ahead. 366 00:35:10,361 --> 00:35:11,988 Rolfe? 367 00:35:12,155 --> 00:35:17,869 You're telling the truth about the bell
and not just trying to get another ship? 368 00:35:18,036 --> 00:35:21,998 - You have my word.
- That's what worries me. 369 00:35:22,165 --> 00:35:24,167 Good luck. 370 00:35:41,684 --> 00:35:45,980 Right, girls, down to the kitchen
before it gets cold. 371 00:36:15,468 --> 00:36:18,388 - All ready to go?
- We sa...
