00:00:16 In 1941, China and Japan had been in
00:00:22 A Japanese army of occupation
00:00:26 ...and many towns and cities.
00:00:28 In Shanghai, thousands of Westerners...
00:00:31 ...protected by diplomatic
00:00:34 ...lived as they had since the British
00:00:39 ...building in the image of
00:00:41 Banking houses, hotels, offiices,
00:00:45 ...that could be from Liverpool
00:00:48 Their time was running out.
00:00:50 Outside Shanghai, the Japanese dug in
00:00:54 ...for Pearl Harbor.
00:04:45 Jamie!
00:04:49 Jamie, off the grass!
00:04:52 Off the grass!
00:05:02 Nice plane finish!
00:05:07 -Which side will win the war?
00:05:11 -Oh, that war.
00:05:15 We're awfully lucky.
00:05:18 -Living here, having everything.
00:05:23 The harder I work, the luckier we get.
00:05:27 I only meant lucky.
00:05:32 Luckier than him.
00:05:35 We're luckier than most.
00:05:38 Out of the way.
00:05:41 The Japanese will win. They've got
00:05:46 I may join the Japanese Air Force.
00:05:49 For heaven's sake!
00:05:52 Father, look! Zero Sen!
00:06:20 Amah, I'll have...
00:06:23 ...the buttered biscuits.
00:06:25 Mrs. Graham, she...
00:06:28 ...not want you eat before bed.
00:06:34 You have to do what I say.
00:06:38 Backed by reinforcements
00:06:41 ....certain to influence Japan against
00:06:46 As Far East tensions grow, British
00:06:51 ...for Australia and India.
00:06:53 A steamer left Shanghai yesterday
00:06:58 ...to Hong Kong.
00:07:00 A third of occupied China's
00:07:04 ...estimated at 15,000, has left
00:07:08 Little hope ofprogress remains...
00:07:10 ...between Roosevelt
00:07:14 Singapore revealed that Japanese
00:07:19 ...have reached the strength of
00:07:32 Hello...
00:07:35 ...Ace.
00:07:40 -I was dreaming about God.
00:07:44 Nothing. He was playing tennis.
00:07:50 Perhaps that's where God is
00:07:54 It's why you can't see him.
00:07:56 I don't know about God.
00:07:59 Good night, Jamie.
00:08:00 Perhaps he's our dream...
00:08:05 ...and we're his.
00:08:07 Go to sleep. It's the Lockwoods'
00:08:12 Can I take my glider?
00:08:14 Dream of flying.
00:08:29 Mother...
00:08:31 ...if God is above us, does it mean
00:08:36 Good night.
00:09:33 -Mistress, very beautiful.
00:09:39 Jamie, behave yourself.
00:09:42 Thank you, Yang.
00:09:46 Right, squeeze up.
00:09:49 Mind the plane.
00:09:53 Right, Yang.
00:10:04 Settle down, Sinbad!
00:10:16 Take the Wang Pu Road.
00:10:48 -See you back on board.
00:10:51 Green apples! Green apples!
00:11:26 No mama. No papa. No whiskey soda.
00:11:47 Slow down. Checkpoint coming up.
00:12:49 God rest ye merry, gentlemen
00:12:52 Hello, darling. Lovely to see you.
00:12:55 -Big kisses.
00:12:57 -Leave Shanghai while you can.
00:13:01 Lockwood's invited a Chink.
00:13:06 Sorry, but don't mind him.
00:13:08 -English humor?
00:13:11 Are our days numbered?
00:13:13 All our days are numbered.
00:13:16 You've been in Shanghai 100 years.
00:13:20 The Japanese, four years. Nothing.
00:13:23 Long enough to spoil your harvest
00:13:27 A million Chinese peasants are
00:13:31 The Japanese get hungry too.
00:13:33 We have the guns, the planes,
00:13:37 -We'll be here after every war.
00:13:41 I hope we'll be here too.
00:13:43 Always delighted to return
00:13:46 -Very good. Utterly convincing.
00:14:07 Zero?
00:14:09 Nakajima. Two machine guns.
00:14:13 I rely on you for keeping up-to-date
00:14:17 Especially military aviation.
00:14:19 -I hear you resigned from the Scouts.
00:14:24 -Where are you going?
00:14:44 Your boy tells me he's an atheist.
00:14:47 Always thought he was.
00:14:49 -Chow time.
00:16:11 Enemy aircraft sighted!
00:16:28 He's on my tail! On my tail!
00:17:47 Stand still, John.
00:18:10 Don't run.
00:18:28 Come on, Jamie.
00:18:30 -I left my plane.
00:18:33 -Don't look back.
00:18:35 They're waiting for something
00:18:38 -They didn't look angry.
00:18:42 -ls it time to close ranks?
00:18:46 Somewhere safe. Singapore?
00:19:22 We're moving into the hotel.
00:19:24 -Why?
00:19:29 I don't want you two alone
00:21:30 I didn't mean it. It was a joke.
00:21:33 Keep away from the window.
00:21:35 Get dressed. Do what Mother tells
00:21:41 I am dressed.
00:21:45 -Am I going to school?
00:21:48 We'll see if Yang can
00:22:36 Never mind the suitcase. Come on!
00:22:39 -Taxi! Over here! Taxi!
00:22:48 Good heavens, it's ridiculous!
00:22:54 -Keep holding my hand!
00:23:04 -Excuse me! Excuse me!
00:23:22 Yang, get us to the waterfront.
00:24:09 Jamie, for God's sake, sit down!
00:24:20 Jamie, get out of the car. Quickly!
00:24:38 -What will we do?
00:24:40 Perhaps there'll be a boat.
00:24:44 Don't push me!
00:24:47 Hold on to them!
00:25:01 Stay together! Hang on to Jamie!
00:25:12 Jamie, don't let go!
00:25:27 My plane!
00:25:33 Mum?
00:25:37 Mum?
00:25:43 Mum! Mummy!
00:25:55 Go home. I'll find you there! Go home!
00:26:01 Mummy!
00:27:50 Mother!
00:28:13 Mother!
00:28:28 Father!
00:30:23 What do you think you're doing?
00:30:32 Where's my mother and father?
00:34:22 Come on, man! Come on, kid!
00:34:25 Come on!
00:34:28 Wait! Wait!
00:34:33 Come on!
00:34:39 Wait!
00:34:40 Please!
00:35:37 Excuse me, everyone.
00:35:42 I surrender.
00:35:45 I surrender. I surrender. I surrender.
00:36:42 No mama! No papa! No whiskey soda!
00:36:48 American boy?
00:36:50 -American boy?
00:36:53 English?
00:36:56 I'm waiting for my chauffeur.
00:36:59 English boy.
00:37:02 English boy, you come now.
00:37:06 Thank you.
00:37:08 You come now.
00:37:10 -You come now.
00:37:14 English boy!
00:37:32 I surrender! I surrender. Please!
00:37:37 Please, sir!
00:37:40 I surrender!
00:37:43 Excuse me, sir.
00:37:46 I'd like to surrender, please!
00:37:50 Please.
00:37:52 Please, I'm British.
00:37:54 And I'd like to surrender.
00:37:57 Please!
00:38:02 English boy!
00:38:51 I surrender!
00:38:54 Please!
00:39:09 Help me!
00:39:12 Help me! I'm British!
00:39:14 Help me!
00:39:17 -Help me!
00:39:41 Please! No! Please!
00:39:50 Help me! Help me!
00:40:14 Hello.
00:40:18 Kid. Kid, you okay?
00:40:26 Kid, you all right?
00:40:29 I think so.
00:40:31 Where do you live?
00:40:33 13 Amherst Avenue.
00:40:35 I'm waiting for my parents.
00:40:39 Delayed?
00:40:44 What's your name?
00:40:46 James Graham.
00:40:51 Are you with the American fleet?
00:40:53 American fleet? It looks like
00:41:00 Maybe I'll help you find
00:41:04 I know just the man.
00:41:06 Do you know General Winter?
00:41:09 My father's met important people.
00:41:13 He owns a textile mill
00:41:16 Mr. Lockwood? He's with
00:41:20 Perhaps you don't know anyone.
00:41:21 How about Louis Charles and Michael
00:41:26 Know about psychic bidding?
00:41:28 Let's say you need three diamonds.
00:41:31 You just think three diamonds.
00:41:33 Then your partner,
00:41:36 ...he shouts and you put down the....
00:41:39 You put down your aces and then....
00:41:42 I can't remember it now.
00:41:44 Probably my parents are on a ship
00:41:48 Then they'll send for me.
00:41:50 My father will give you a reward.
00:41:52 He gave a taxi driver $5
00:41:56 Have you been to England?
00:41:57 Kid, you're starting to get
00:42:19 Look what I found under my truck.
00:42:22 Well, come in, boy.
00:42:23 I don't know whether he's hungry
00:42:26 You look like you need to lie down.
00:42:29 My father has a cotton mill at...
00:42:32 ...Pootung.
00:42:34 -He'll be ingratiated to you.
00:42:40 He once gave a taxi--
00:42:41 Come here. In a minute.
00:42:48 Now that is a well-kept set of teeth.
00:42:51 Someone has paid a lot of bills
00:42:55 Frank, you'd be surprised how
00:42:59 Basie, I got you three.
00:43:01 I wasn't able to sell
00:43:04 Those Hankow merchants...
00:43:06 ...they're charging $10
00:43:11 Cathedral School too.
00:43:14 Cathedral?
00:43:16 What's he, some kind of priest?
00:43:20 The Cathedral School.
00:43:23 It's a school for taipans.
00:43:32 You must know some
00:43:35 What do they call you?
00:43:37 I once met Madame Sun Yat-Sen.
00:43:40 She didn't call me anything.
00:43:43 Madame Sun?
00:43:44 I was presented.
00:43:47 -Presented.
00:43:51 We'll be up to our asses in junk,
00:43:55 The Japs are not looking for us.
00:43:57 Nantao Creek is full of cholera.
00:44:01 It's a changed world.
00:44:04 ...there wouldn't be enough to get
00:44:07 We'd have to strip the Queen Mary!
00:44:13 Let's leave the boy alone.
00:44:18 All these new words and now this.
00:44:39 -What did you say your name was?
00:44:43 I'm building a man-flying kite...
00:44:47 ...and writing a book
00:44:49 Jim. A new name for a new life.
00:44:54 Jim's parents got
00:44:58 ...and now Jim's looking for them.
00:45:37 Don't worry about Frank. He always
00:45:42 I always eat after you, Basie.
00:45:45 Because I think for us both.
00:45:48 Jim, chew your food.
00:45:50 Chew every mouthful six times
00:46:09 Frank, we might do all right
00:46:14 It doesn't look like we'll be leaving
00:46:25 You're a tired boy, Jim.
00:46:35 Where am I gonna sleep?
00:46:38 Shanghai, Jim.
00:46:42 Find any gold teeth in there?
00:46:45 Buying and selling, Frank. You know.
00:46:50 Life.
00:47:09 Okay, sit. Sit.
00:47:20 Make a muscle.
00:47:37 -Why can't he sell me?
00:47:40 You're worth nothing.
00:47:42 Pretty soon, you'll be sick
00:48:21 First, I could show you
00:48:24 Hundreds of houses left empty.
00:48:27 ls that right?
00:48:29 I'll show you the houses
00:48:35 They were luxuriant!
00:48:38 Luxuriant?
00:48:40 You had good sense being born there.
00:48:44 There certainly was good living!
00:48:50 There was opulence!
00:48:54 Opulence.
00:48:59 All right.
00:49:00 We'll go and take a look
00:49:07 Let's go, Frank.
00:49:10 Opulence.
00:49:40 That one has whiskey, gin
00:49:44 That one has whiskey, gin....
00:49:48 -Whiskey and a radiogram.
00:49:52 It has a mirrored dance floor,
00:49:56 -...and crystal chandeliers.
00:50:00 -I think they were crystal.
00:50:02 What about cash?
00:50:04 -Say, what about a little money?
00:50:07 Piles of notes on the table.
00:50:12 Turn right here.
00:50:42 I knew she'd come back.
00:50:47 Take it easy.
00:50:50 Mother!
00:51:10 -Damn it, they're Japs.
00:51:13 I can't back out! There's no reverse!
00:51:15 -Just go forward.
00:51:27 Jesus Christ, Frank.
00:51:40 I want these back when they're done.
00:52:12 Engine number two on fire.
00:52:15 Come in, Red Dog Leader.
00:52:18 Adjusting propeller? Red Dog Leader.
00:52:21 Engine two on fire.
00:52:25 Good King Wenceslas looked out
00:52:30 When the snow lay round about
00:52:35 It's just a little fever.
00:52:39 Do you feel better now?
00:53:38 It's perfectly all right.
00:53:50 Excuse me.
00:53:53 There's been a mistake.
00:53:56 It may have been my fault.
00:54:16 Attention, prisoners!
00:54:20 Outside. Make one line. Number one
00:54:24 Prisoners, number one truck.
00:54:49 Have you forgotten the cutlery?
00:54:51 No, I haven't.
00:55:07 You can drink water from here.
00:55:12 But we can drink boiled water.
00:55:15 Boiled water?
00:55:18 Many thanks, Basie.
00:55:20 You're welcome, Jim.
00:55:21 You've got nice manners.
00:55:26 Now it's chow time.
00:55:28 Keep the ball in play,
00:55:32 I think your father would agree.
00:55:34 Actually, he would agree.
00:55:36 After the war, you two
00:55:41 I want you to get Mrs. Partridge's
00:55:47 I think she died, Basie.
00:55:49 She died, but didn't hand
00:55:53 Okay, go. Go on. Hurry.
00:56:00 And, Ace, don't forget to bow
00:56:08 We gotta get out of here.
00:56:13 The camps are full. It's our bad luck
00:56:24 The Japs haven't got enough camps
00:56:49 Come on, children.
00:56:53 She's with God now.
00:57:38 What are you doing, Basie?
00:57:43 Looks like your size, Jim.
00:57:47 I don't want her shoes.
00:57:50 Basie, don't. I don't want them.
00:57:53 -I don't want them.
00:57:56 Basie, leave her!
00:57:58 Fine! I don't want her shoes!
00:58:00 Stop it. Leave her. Leave her!
00:58:03 Stop it. I don't want her shoes!
00:58:06 Pipe down.
00:58:14 It's the lorry. The lorry!
00:58:18 Come on!
00:58:20 Come on!
00:58:22 Don't you see?
00:58:28 Healthy ones go. Sick stay.
00:58:32 Tell him who we are, then--
00:58:35 We don't say anything.
00:58:49 -Name?
00:58:51 -Name?
00:59:03 Excuse me.
00:59:05 -I'm a doctor. Let me through.
00:59:10 I'm a British citizen!
00:59:12 You can't do this!
00:59:30 No! I'm with them!
00:59:34 -Please!
00:59:51 Paul. Your name Paul?
00:59:53 Get your sister to smile for me.
00:59:59 Don't leave me!
01:00:06 Listen, Basie! Take me with you!
01:00:11 I'll work for you. I'll do anything!
01:00:36 Soochow.
01:00:37 Soochow!
01:00:38 I've been there lots of times.
01:00:42 Head straight in that direction.
01:00:45 My parents were members of the country
01:00:51 I've lived here my whole life!
01:00:56 I can speak--
01:01:01 Soochow!
01:01:03 Here we go!
01:01:33 Nice pair of golf shoes.
01:01:35 A friend left them to me.
01:01:38 You wouldn't want
01:01:41 No. Sorry.
01:01:44 Now do you know where we are?
01:01:48 We must turn left here.
01:01:53 You do what I say or we'll never get
01:01:57 And then you'll be shot.
01:02:01 I look after him for his daddy.
01:02:05 -You're American, are you?
01:02:09 I worked underground for
01:02:13 As a conjurer?
01:02:32 That must be the camp. We'll be
01:02:37 -I don't see a camp.
01:02:40 Those huts at a distance.
01:03:08 What do I do with this?
01:03:14 They want us to carry stones!
01:03:19 Please, on the truck's a sick old man.
01:03:24 On the truck, there's an old man.
01:03:27 -No, no, no.
01:03:34 Papa! Papa!
01:03:38 I'm all right.
01:07:21 -Use your wedge!
01:07:24 Spends most of his time at
01:07:26 You'll be blackballed by
01:07:43 Hello, Jim.
01:07:52 That's a splendid cabbage. Thanks.
01:08:16 Now number seven for the sketch.
01:08:18 "Fare thee well: 'tis partly my
01:08:23 "Stay, gentle Helena, hear my excuse."
01:09:08 That's not fair!
01:09:14 Give us our marbles back.
01:09:19 Mrs. Phillips!
01:09:21 Mrs. Gilmour!
01:09:25 Dr. Rawlins, I've got my homework.
01:09:33 Can you do this?
01:09:38 Now don't speed up.
01:09:51 She's gone, Dr. Rawlins.
01:10:13 She just looked at me. She looked
01:10:18 I can bring her back to life!
01:10:20 Watch her eyes. I can do it again.
01:10:24 She thought she was dying in England.
01:10:27 Stop it, Jim!
01:10:35 You pumped some blood into her brain,
01:10:46 Give the mosquito net to Mr. Radik.
01:10:50 You give the mosquito net to
01:11:30 Future passive. "I shall be loved."
01:11:34 Amabor. It's like losing a war, dying.
01:11:37 "They were being loved."
01:11:40 -Can I have his shoes when he's dead?
01:11:44 -"You will have been loved."
01:11:47 We have to beat them.
01:11:49 -Who?
01:11:52 It's how we'll win, refusing to die.
01:11:55 -What happens when war ends?
01:11:59 lf we stay in the camps,
01:12:02 We're an embarrassment to them.
01:12:07 They'll fight the Americans.
01:12:09 -You admire the Japanese?
01:12:12 -That's important?
01:12:15 We don't want them to win.
01:12:18 I know.
01:12:20 Remember we're British.
01:12:24 I've never been there.
01:12:27 Put that down.
01:12:29 Tomorrow, gerunds. What about English?
01:12:34 Think of it as...
01:12:36 ...the antidote.
01:12:37 We are never sure ofsorrow
01:12:40 Today will die, tomorrow
01:12:42 With love grown--
01:12:44 Learn it as a poem.
01:12:48 -Would you look at Mr. Radik?
01:12:52 Get those from the hospital garden?
01:12:55 I must give Basie something--
01:12:57 Good thing you're friends.
01:13:00 Because he only drinks boiled water.
01:13:03 You'll wear yourself out looking
01:13:08 Keeps himself busy, doesn't he?
01:13:15 -The caterers are arriving.
01:13:20 Won't taste the same without you.
01:13:31 Wait for me!
01:13:54 -What about mines?
01:13:56 -Maybe the Japs put down some mines.
01:14:02 -Boss, it's the kid.
01:14:11 -Would you like a Hershey bar?
01:14:14 So would I. Have you got one?
01:14:22 Stop breathing so much.
01:14:25 There isn't enough air for you
01:14:28 -Here are your clothes.
01:14:32 -Did you get a cork?
01:14:34 Good boy.
01:14:36 -That's fine.

01:14:43 I subscribe. It has Packard,

01:14:51 -What's that?
01:14:54 Get out of here.
01:14:56 It's all right. You're almost one of

01:15:05 B-29s?
01:15:06 The Superfortress.
01:15:09 Where from?
01:15:10 Okinawa. Philippines. Tokyo's in
01:15:14 -Tokyo?
01:15:17 We'll have to leave the camp?
01:15:18 One side feeds you,
01:15:21 It's turned around. It's all timing.
01:15:24 -Tell me when it's time? Promise?
01:15:28 It'd be simpler to live here.
01:15:30 You've the British dorm to go to
01:15:34 They are sick of me.
01:15:36 The British dorm's so lethargic.
01:15:40 This'll be the place on Thanksgiving.
01:15:44 Pheasant?
01:15:45 Just made the traps.
01:15:47 Stick out your arm. Neat.
01:15:51 I've seen no pheasants, have you?
01:15:53 -Outside the wire.
01:15:55 -Our wire.
01:15:58 At the edge of the airfield,
01:16:01 An American initiative.
01:16:05 How's your friend, Dr. Schweitzer?
01:16:08 I brought Amy Matthews
01:16:11 That's worth a Reader's Digest.
01:16:16 -I got a new one today: pragmatist.
01:16:21 lf I set the traps, could I live here?
01:16:24 -It's a consideration.
01:16:27 Frankly, it's a tossup now between
01:16:32 Take me!
01:16:34 Give me a good reason I should.
01:16:37 I'm your friend.
01:16:42 -Chow truck's here.
01:17:06 They cut the bloody rations!
01:17:09 -Don't worry. I'll get yours.
01:17:20 They cut our rations in half!

01:18:16 Hello, everybody.

01:18:53 The rations have been cut.
01:18:58 82, 83, 84....
01:19:04 87 weevils today, Mr. Victor.
01:19:09 That's above average,
01:19:23 -Must you, Jim?
01:19:26 Some of us will die just before we're
01:19:31 -You'll miss this camp after the war.
01:19:36 I'll locate my parents when the people
01:19:39 -I'll tell my dad you looked after me.
01:19:46 -What reward?
01:19:49 I was much younger then.
01:19:52 Why'd the Japanese close the school?
01:19:55 To punish the grownups.
01:20:01 I wonder how you'll take to school
01:20:04 It might be a bit strange.
01:20:07 The best teacher's the university
01:20:10 For heaven's--
01:20:11 Could we finish our meal? We know your
01:20:18 -We should eat the weevils.
01:20:22 -He said we need the protein.
01:20:27 We should eat all the weevils.
01:20:30 Do you believe in vitamins?
01:20:33 Strange child.
01:20:40 Perhaps it's time you moved into
01:20:44 You're not 1 2 anymore.
01:21:30 The Americans are over Nantao again.
01:23:03 They're bombing the Shanghai docks!
01:23:21 Coney lsland pilots.
01:23:22 -What was that?
01:23:25 -A 200-pounder.
01:23:27 -Too close for Nagata.
01:23:44 What's happening, doctor?
01:23:46 Reprisals, and damned silly it is too.
01:23:53 -Keep the patients from the windows.
01:26:39 Get away! This is British food!
01:26:43 This is our food. Get away!
01:26:47 Guards!
01:27:01 Mines. That was a mine. I told you.
01:27:06 Somebody lobbed a grenade.
01:27:28 Say, Basie, I bet he hits a mine.
01:27:31 I bet you there are no mines.
01:27:35 You got a bet.
01:28:14 So far so good.
01:29:51 He's seen something.
01:29:54 Jim's a black cat.
01:30:38 That's a dead boy, Basie.
01:30:43 My harmonica...
01:30:45 ...and my next meal
01:30:51 You're on, my friend.
01:31:08 I double my bet. My next two meals.
01:31:11 -You'll lose a lot of weight.

01:34:48 How you doing, Frank?
01:35:48 The river's east. You can go
01:35:52 ...or go north of east,
01:35:56 It doesn't say if it's
01:35:59 Where'd you get a map?
01:36:04 It's a cork and needle?
01:36:06 -A compass that actually works.
01:36:10 -ls it time?
01:36:12 -You won't forget?
01:36:15 -I almost feel human.
01:36:20 No, without you
01:36:23 The best way is across the river.
01:36:27 Jim, the curtain.
01:38:24 Jim, come here.
01:38:28 You're in charge of my stuff.
01:39:14 You see this mosquito net?

01:39:41 How are you feeling?
01:39:44 I've had worse.
01:39:45 I was beaten by a stoker once.
01:39:48 Were you a stoker?
01:39:51 Ship's steward. Shanghai-Frisco line.
01:39:55 Why did he beat you?
01:40:02 Shanghai-Frisco will be
01:40:07 Basie, where do you live?
01:40:10 Here.
01:40:12 No, I mean after the war.
01:40:15 Somewhere else.
01:40:21 Until you find a place,
01:40:30 I'd like you to come
01:40:36 We could fill up the pool...
01:40:39 ...and we'll eat three times a day.
01:40:45 You're not feeling

01:41:41 ...we are going to be
01:41:44 Actually, that may be a better name.
01:41:47 It's at the beginning and end of war

01:41:55 But you gotta know how to stay
01:42:00 Because this war

01:42:06 After that...
01:42:08 ...I retire in luxury,
01:42:23 What are you doing here?
01:42:33 I told you to look out for my stuff.
01:42:41 They were bigger than me.
01:43:05 -Look who's here.

01:51:13 I used to play bridge
01:51:18 She used to comb her hair.
01:51:22 She had dark hair.
01:54:17 What's happening? What's happening?
01:54:23 The guards are leaving!
01:54:25 They're moving us to Nantao!
01:54:28 One suitcase! We leave in one hour!
01:54:33 One suitcase!
01:54:35 They've got our rations at Nantao.
01:54:45 He's gone.
01:54:48 Him and Dainty.
01:54:53 He's gone?
01:54:56 He's escaped!
01:55:00 He can't have. He promised me!
01:55:08 He knew it was time.
01:55:11 -Where am I gonna go?
01:55:16 He knew it was time.
01:55:19 He knew it was time.
01:55:39 Boy.
01:55:42 Difficult boy.
01:56:03 Just look...
01:56:06 ...later here for escort!
01:58:54 Jim, where's my husband?
02:02:01 We are civilians. Listen to me.
02:02:03 I am a British doctor.
02:02:20 No, we must have rest and food.
02:02:23 We're going upcountry, Jim.
02:02:27 Will there be food there?
02:02:30 There's none here.
02:02:37 Mrs. Victor, we're going upcountry.
02:02:47 Come on, Jim.
02:02:54 Don't go. It's better here.
02:03:03 You'll die here.
02:03:07 Don't worry, Mr. Maxton.
02:03:16 Pretend you're dead, Mrs. Victor.
02:05:08 Surrender reached the Japanese
02:05:12 He said Japan will endure the
02:05:17 The war minister and others
02:05:22 Japan is devastated,
02:05:25 ...as Hiroshima and Nagasakihave
02:05:28 More than 100,000 people
02:05:32 ...single-bomb explosions, which
02:05:35 The Russian declaration of war...
02:05:38 ...has sent a million
02:05:41 Tokyo was hit with a dawn-to-dusk
02:05:46 But Japan's war was lost.
02:05:50 ...a new empire incinerated
02:05:53 ...hotter than the sun.
02:05:55 Everyone stands in awe of
02:05:59 Only a few scientists knew the power
02:06:03 It reached us in a shock wave...
02:06:06 ...and a white light: the atom bomb.
02:06:09 Each of the two bombs...
02:06:11 ...had the power of
02:06:15 Nagasakiis
02:06:18 ...just 500 miles from Shanghai.
02:06:22 I saw that! I saw that! I saw that!
02:06:29 The white light.
02:06:32 I thought it was Mrs. Victor's
02:10:27 Bastard!
02:10:52 He gave me a mango.
02:10:54 I'll give you

02:11:31 I learned a new word today.
02:11:35 Atom bomb.
02:11:39 It was like a white light
02:11:44 Like God taking a photograph.

02:12:04 I can bring everyone back.
02:12:09 I can bring everyone back.
02:12:13 Everyone.
02:12:18 I can bring everyone back.
