00:01:23 [Music]
00:01:40 [Singing]
00:02:08 Thank you, XTC, always great to serve you.
00:02:11 Come on, get inside.
00:02:12 It's the sixth year.
00:02:13 It's all right.
00:02:14 Get in.
00:02:15 [Singing]
00:02:44 [Music]
00:02:49 Mama.
00:02:50 Yes?
00:02:51 It's near locking up time.
00:02:52 The money hasn't come yet.
00:02:54 It's a long road from Hamburg.
00:02:56 It'll be here in the morning.
00:02:58 Yes, but if anything should happen, all that money, 10,000 golden.
00:03:04 Eh?
00:03:05 So much this journey?
00:03:06 7,000 in one lump from Prince Lowenstein's agent,
00:03:09 and then all the small sums, 10,000 at least.
00:03:13 The roads are dangerous.
00:03:16 Tomorrow morning it'll be here.
00:03:20 We should be thankful, Maya.
00:03:22 Business is good, eh?
00:03:24 Nearly a thousand golden since morning.
00:03:27 [Laughter]
00:03:31 Mama.
00:03:32 Yes?
00:03:33 That agent, did you notice him?
00:03:35 What?
00:03:36 There he sat, sly and smiling,
00:03:38 planning to rob this poor old Jew Rothschild.
00:03:42 And here I was, so innocent, a little child, a baby in fact.
00:03:47 And there was that fine old clock that his master had sent him to bargain for.
00:03:52 Yes.
00:03:53 And when at last I let him have it for less money than it cost me,
00:03:57 I could see in his eyes how pleased he was that he got the better of this little baby.
00:04:02 So would it under cost?
00:04:04 So would it under cost?
00:04:07 A spade to catch a mackerel, Mama.
00:04:09 He thinks he's so clever, and I'm so stupid.
00:04:12 Always make them think they're clever.
00:04:15 [Laughter]
00:04:23 Mama.
00:04:24 Eh?
00:04:25 I've been robbed.
00:04:26 Maya.
00:04:27 Bad.
00:04:28 A whole golden.
00:04:29 A dead loss.
00:04:30 Bad.
00:04:31 Are you sure?
00:04:33 You're right, Maya.
00:04:34 Who gave it to you?
00:04:35 Could it be that--
00:04:36 That agent.
00:04:37 And I gave him some wine too.
00:04:39 Some of the good wine.
00:04:40 Maya, he'll come again.
00:04:44 Yes.
00:04:45 He'll come again.
00:04:46 And then, Mama, I catch my mackerel.
00:04:50 [Laughter]
00:04:52 Well, no one can ever say you don't deal fairly with your customers, Mama.
00:04:56 It pays in the end, Mama.
00:04:59 Now finish your talk.
00:05:01 Now lay the supper.
00:05:02 All right, Mama.
00:05:05 It shan't be very long now.
00:05:07 The roast is almost done.
00:05:10 Smells good.
00:05:11 Yeah.
00:05:13 Looks good too.
00:05:14 Mm.
00:05:15 [Laughter]
00:05:23 Mama, quick.
00:05:24 It's making.
00:05:28 Mama, the tax is coming in.
00:05:30 Mama, the tax collector.
00:05:31 Papa, the tax collector.
00:05:33 He's down on the street.
00:05:34 Kept guard.
00:05:37 The tax collector, boys.
00:05:46 Mama, put away the silver.
00:05:47 I have.
00:05:58 Don't forget to hide your cowboy.
00:06:01 Oh, run away.
00:06:02 What do you know about?
00:06:03 Everything that he learns, he likes to call.
00:06:07 Take those hats off.
00:06:09 Here, Mama.
00:06:10 Yes.
00:06:27 Hurry up, Carl.
00:06:28 Come on, James.
00:06:29 Open the fireplace.
00:06:30 Remember, no deal for the last five days.
00:06:33 Understand?
00:06:34 Yes, Father.
00:06:35 Are you hungry?
00:06:36 Not so very.
00:06:37 Then look hungry.
00:06:40 Look hungry.
00:06:41 [Laughter]
00:06:43 Anshel Solomon, you remain below.
00:06:49 Mama, hide the roast.
00:06:53 Get off, James.
00:07:00 All right.
00:07:02 We'll take a roster, I think.
00:07:07 Mama, take your sewing.
00:07:09 Sit there.
00:07:10 Mama, take your sewing.
00:07:12 Sit there.
00:07:13 Mama, take your sewing.
00:07:15 Sit there.
00:07:16 Mama, take your sewing.
00:07:18 Sit there.
00:07:19 Mama, take your sewing.
00:07:20 Sit there.
00:07:21 Nathan, find me.
00:07:22 Nathan, take your hands out of your pockets.
00:07:26 Open up, Jew.
00:07:30 Who is it, Nathan?
00:07:39 Alan Rothschild.
00:07:40 Why, it's my good friend, the tax collector.
00:07:43 Bring out your account book.
00:07:45 Certainly, sir.
00:07:46 Here it is.
00:07:47 I was just looking over it.
00:07:49 Things are very bad.
00:07:51 I was saying to my poor wife, this is our friend,
00:07:55 the tax collector.
00:07:57 Never have I known such a bad month.
00:08:00 No.
00:08:01 For five days, not one garden have I seen.
00:08:04 Customers come, yes, but they don't buy.
00:08:07 No.
00:08:08 No one's traveling these days, so my exchange business
00:08:11 is worse than nothing.
00:08:13 I shall soon starve.
00:08:14 Starve, eh?
00:08:15 What?
00:08:16 Something smells good.
00:08:17 One of our neighbors must be having a roast.
00:08:20 Close the window, Mama.
00:08:22 What do you take me for?
00:08:24 Now bring out the real books.
00:08:27 Real books?
00:08:28 By excellency, I don't understand what you mean.
00:08:31 Rothschild, you're doing more business than any Jew
00:08:33 in Jew Street.
00:08:34 You're going to pay 20,000 golden.
00:08:36 20,000?
00:08:37 Why, a count of the big merchants in the city
00:08:39 doesn't pay as much as they do.
00:08:41 That's another matter.
00:08:42 He's outside the ghetto.
00:08:43 He's not a Jew.
00:08:44 Oh, if you were going to kill me this instant,
00:08:46 I could barely raise 1,000 golden.
00:08:49 Upstairs.
00:08:50 That's the house.
00:08:52 Pull the beds apart.
00:08:53 Well, I might perhaps raise 2,000 golden.
00:09:06 Tch.
00:09:07 Very interesting.
00:09:08 Oh, that.
00:09:09 Nathan, lift up the trip drawer for the gentleman.
00:09:12 [laughter]
00:09:14 They're just some old stock.
00:09:16 We have a little wine down there.
00:09:18 Not very good wine, I'm afraid.
00:09:20 Good wine costs money.
00:09:21 But no account books, no gold, no jewels, I suppose.
00:09:25 Jewels.
00:09:26 Jewels.
00:09:27 I've had to give up dealing in jewels long ago.
00:09:29 It needs capital.
00:09:30 Shall I lead the way?
00:09:31 You follow.
00:09:32 At a distance.
00:09:33 Come, Nathan.
00:09:41 [knocking]
00:09:44 Stand up, Jew boys.
00:10:08 Ha.
00:10:11 Wine.
00:10:13 Fill up a cup.
00:10:14 But that's green, Excellency.
00:10:15 Do as I say.
00:10:18 Oh, it had wine in it after all, eh?
00:10:21 Ha ha.
00:10:22 Mm.
00:10:26 Slop.
00:10:27 Yes, sir.
00:10:28 That's what we drink.
00:10:29 Ah.
00:10:31 But there's some here that father keeps for his facial customers.
00:10:34 Won't your Excellency try it?
00:10:36 Ah.
00:10:43 Ha.
00:10:50 You old fox.
00:10:52 It's good.
00:10:53 Your Excellency does us honor.
00:10:56 Rothschild, apparently you've been telling me the truth.
00:10:59 So do you know what I'm going to do?
00:11:00 No, Excellency.
00:11:01 I'm going to charge you 20,000 golden just the same.
00:11:05 But I can't do it.
00:11:06 There's not that much money in the whole ghetto.
00:11:09 Rothschild, you'd like to pay only 2,000 golden again,
00:11:15 wouldn't you?
00:11:17 Yes, Excellency.
00:11:18 Now, what would it be worth to me if I put you down for 2,000 this time?
00:11:25 A very handsome present for your Excellency.
00:11:28 Say, 1,000 golden.
00:11:30 Dark sense, Rothschild.
00:11:32 I want 10,000.
00:11:34 Would you leave me and my family penitent?
00:11:37 I'm not a penitent.
00:11:39 I'm a man of my word.
00:11:41 I'm a man of my word.
00:11:43 Rothschild, I want 10,000.
00:11:46 Would you leave me and my family penitent?
00:11:48 With a great deal of pleasure.
00:11:50 Come now.
00:11:51 Well, perhaps a 3,000 golden, but that's the limit, the actual limit.
00:11:57 I'll take 6,000.
00:12:00 Oh, I will.
00:12:03 We'll make it 5,000.
00:12:05 [laughing]
00:12:07 All right.
00:12:08 Have it ready tomorrow.
00:12:09 I'll call.
00:12:11 And if any of you breathe a word, I'll have your house burned to the ground.
00:12:16 Boys, you did well.
00:12:27 Nathan, you're a smart lad.
00:12:29 That wine, Mama, you should have seen him.
00:12:32 And after all, a 5,000 golden isn't as bad as it might have been.
00:12:36 No.
00:12:37 But it is bad to have to pay away 5,000 golden.
00:12:41 Not as bad as having to pay away 20,000, Father.
00:12:44 [laughing]
00:12:47 6 o'clock.
00:12:48 All Jews inside.
00:12:50 Traveling all night.
00:12:51 Come on.
00:12:56 Let's get out of this den of--
00:12:57 What?
00:12:58 Shall I go after him?
00:12:59 Oh, let him go.
00:13:02 Mr. Rothschild.
00:13:04 Mr. Rothschild.
00:13:07 Mr. Rothschild.
00:13:08 What's the matter?
00:13:09 What's happened?
00:13:10 The man who was bringing your money from Hamburg has been waylaid by the tax agents outside the city.
00:13:13 What?
00:13:14 They heard he was bringing the money to Jew Street.
00:13:16 They might have killed him, but he got away.
00:13:17 He got away with the money?
00:13:18 No, they got it, Mr. Rothschild.
00:13:20 They got the money.
00:13:21 What, all of it?
00:13:22 Yes, all of it.
00:13:23 Oh, dear, they got it.
00:13:24 Dear, they told him.
00:13:25 10,000 golden, our money that we worked for.
00:13:28 Why doesn't the Almighty strike them dead?
00:13:31 Papa, don't get excited.
00:13:32 It's bad for you.
00:13:33 Now, listen.
00:13:34 You are young.
00:13:35 Your lives are before you.
00:13:36 You've got to fight.
00:13:37 Fight for yourselves.
00:13:38 Fight for our people.
00:13:40 Mama, I have to cheat the tax collector before my own children.
00:13:45 Do you think I want to do that?
00:13:47 I live honestly.
00:13:48 I trade honestly.
00:13:50 I want to be honest with them.
00:13:52 But they won't let us.
00:13:53 We are Jews, taxed to death, forbidden to learn a trade, forbidden to own land.
00:13:58 They keep us in chains.
00:13:59 They send men here to rob us.
00:14:01 So work and strive for money.
00:14:03 Money is power.
00:14:04 Money is the only weapon that the Jew has to defend himself with.
00:14:08 Oh, Mama.
00:14:09 Come, he wants to speak with you.
00:14:18 All of you.
00:14:20 We're here, Papa.
00:14:22 All of us.
00:14:23 My sons, when I go, I leave you in your Mama's care.
00:14:35 She is the only one who can help you.
00:14:38 She is the only one who can help you.
00:14:41 She is the only one who can help you.
00:14:44 I leave you in your Mama's care.
00:14:49 She is wise, far wiser than I, and good.
00:14:55 Do always as she says, and you will grow rich.
00:15:00 Come closer.
00:15:09 Much money is lost through sending gold by coach from one country to another.
00:15:15 In times of war, it is seized by the enemy.
00:15:18 In times of peace, by thieves.
00:15:21 You are five brothers.
00:15:24 I want you each to start a banking business in a different country.
00:15:29 One to go and open a house in Paris, one in Vienna, one in London.
00:15:35 Choose the most important centers.
00:15:38 So that when money is to be sent from here to London, it is saying,
00:15:44 you won't have to risk life and gold.
00:15:48 Amshel, here in Frankfurt, will just send a letter to Nathan in London,
00:15:55 saying, "Pay so and so."
00:15:58 And that will be offset by loans from London to Frankfurt.
00:16:03 Understand?
00:16:04 Yes, Papa.
00:16:06 In your day, there will be many wars in Europe.
00:16:11 A nation that has money to transport will come to the Rothschilds,
00:16:16 because it will be safe.
00:16:18 Papa, you mustn't talk anymore. The doctor--
00:16:20 I'm giving advice to our sons, Mama, that the doctor cannot give.
00:16:27 Remember, unity is strength.
00:16:32 All your lives, you must stand by one another.
00:16:36 No one brother must be allowed to fail while another brother succeeds.
00:16:42 Your five banking houses may cover Europe,
00:16:46 but you will be one firm, one family.
00:16:51 The Rothschilds will work always together.
00:16:55 That will be your power.
00:16:59 And when that power comes, remember the debtor.
00:17:05 I shall be here.
00:17:07 I shall never leave the house where they were all born.
00:17:10 Remember this before all,
00:17:12 that neither business nor power nor all the gold in Europe
00:17:18 will bring you happiness,
00:17:20 until we, our people, have equality, respect, dignity,
00:17:28 to trade with dignity, to live with dignity,
00:17:34 to walk the world with dignity.
00:17:40 [music]
00:17:43 [music]
00:17:46 [music]
00:17:49 [music]
00:17:53 [music]
00:17:57 [music]
00:18:24 If Napoleon is to be beaten in the East,
00:18:26 we must have 15 billion florins immediately, and more later.
00:18:30 I think it can be done, Prince Major,
00:18:33 but I shall have to consult with my brother Nathan in London.
00:18:36 Come, come, Solomon. Can't you decide now?
00:18:38 Your Highness is aware that the Rothschilds work as a family,
00:18:41 and we've made Nathan our head.
00:18:43 [music]
00:18:51 The Rothschilds.
00:18:52 There can be no peace in Europe as long as Napoleon controls Italy.
00:18:57 16 million ducats as soon as possible.
00:19:01 If Your Highness will keep the utmost secrecy,
00:19:03 I will endeavor to obtain the consent of my brothers.
00:19:06 [music]
00:19:09 You must realize, Monsieur de Talleyrand,
00:19:16 how difficult it is for the Paris House of Rothschild
00:19:19 to help the Allies against Napoleon.
00:19:21 My dear Monsieur James, I will be as secret as the grave,
00:19:25 but we must have 50 million francs.
00:19:28 [music]
00:19:31 Your visit honors our house, Count Leydrax.
00:19:38 Quite aware of that answer, Rothschild.
00:19:41 I wish no one to hear of it.
00:19:43 Only necessity brings me here.
00:19:48 The armies of Napoleon are already in Prussia.
00:19:51 We've got to have 5 million golden. Drive them out.
00:19:54 I will consult my brothers.
00:19:56 Ah, that's nonsense.
00:19:57 It is an unbreakable rule, Your Excellency.
00:19:59 The House of Rothschild never participates in a deal of this importance
00:20:04 without the approval of all the partners.
00:20:06 That is impossible.
00:20:08 My brother Nathan in London is permitted to make a decision.
00:20:12 [music]
00:20:15 [music]
00:20:18 Mr. Nathan, it may be that just one more loan will carry us to victory.
00:20:25 You've been most generous, you and your brothers too.
00:20:28 And I can assure you, sir, that His Majesty fully realizes
00:20:31 that the House of Rothschild has already contributed
00:20:33 10 times as much as any other banking house in Europe.
00:20:37 Captain Fitzroy arrived this morning from Wellington's headquarters,
00:20:41 and he's told me how much the General appreciates what you've done.
00:20:45 Lord Wellington's language on the battlefield can't be repeated, sir.
00:20:48 But I've heard him declare that he wouldn't swap any one of those 5 -- Rothschilds
00:20:53 for any 5 of Napoleon's -- Brigade.
00:20:56 May I tell the Prime Minister you agree to one more loan?
00:21:00 Do you realize, gentlemen, that the Allies are drawing on us throughout Europe?
00:21:04 It's money that wins wars.
00:21:06 It's money that makes wars.
00:21:08 With 5 million pounds, we can hold Napoleon at bay.
00:21:11 Mr. Harris, tell the Prime Minister I decline to raise 5 million pounds
00:21:16 to keep the Allies fighting Napoleon.
00:21:18 I'm sorry.
00:21:20 But you can tell Lord Wellington that the 5 -- Rothschilds
00:21:24 will let him have 10 million if he'll guarantee to smash Napoleon.
00:21:28 Oh. Excuse my hat, gentlemen.
00:21:36 [music]
00:21:59 My Lords and gentlemen, once more England is indebted to her greatest soldier.
00:22:07 It is my privilege as Prime Minister to thank him on behalf of England
00:22:14 for his glorious achievement.
00:22:17 We rejoice at your safe return.
00:22:20 My Lords and gentlemen, charge your glasses.
00:22:24 I give you a toast.
00:22:28 His Grace, the Duke of Wellington.
00:22:32 [applause]
00:22:44 Well, that's over.
00:22:46 [laughter]
00:22:47 Ah, empty.
00:22:48 Who's got some snuff here?
00:22:49 [chatter]
00:22:53 May I shake your hand, your Grace?
00:22:55 Thank you, thank you.
00:22:57 Here, Harris.
00:22:59 Why wasn't Rothschild here?
00:23:04 There was some feeling.
00:23:05 Wasn't he asked?
00:23:06 Well, no, your Grace. Some of these people --
00:23:08 Wasn't the man who paid for these dash wars important enough?
00:23:11 It wasn't a question of importance. It was --
00:23:13 Well, if he can't come here, I suppose we can still go there.
00:23:15 Here, Fitch.
00:23:16 Yes, sir.
00:23:18 Just as soon as I can get away, we're going to call on Nathan Rothschild.
00:23:20 He ought to have been here.
00:23:21 Dash slight, I call it.
00:23:23 Ah, more snuff.
00:23:25 Do you know where the old boy lives?
00:23:28 Very well, indeed, sir.
00:23:30 Oh, you young blackguard.
00:23:32 [laughter]
00:23:33 I'd forgotten about that daughter of his.
00:23:35 [laughter]
00:23:39 Darling.
00:23:46 No, I'm not sorry. Not in the least.
00:23:48 Neither am I.
00:23:50 He just stopped.
00:23:53 I've been trying to tell you for a long time.
00:23:55 I've wanted to kiss you.
00:23:57 Yes, I know that.
00:23:58 But when he came it was so sudden, it rather frightened me.
00:24:01 Frightens?
00:24:02 The captain of the guards to protect you? Ridiculous.
00:24:05 Well, the captain of the guards is a very dangerous person.
00:24:08 Only to his rivals.
00:24:10 Do you know you're a very conceited young man?
00:24:12 Hmm?
00:24:13 You haven't even asked me if I loved you.
00:24:15 Well, don't you?
00:24:17 Yes, I do.
00:24:20 I love you more than anything else in the world.
00:24:23 Well, then tonight, after I've talked to Duke and the men,
00:24:33 I'll call on your father.
00:24:35 Darling.
00:24:36 My speech to him is all ready.
00:24:38 I've rehearsed it not less than a thousand times.
00:24:41 To trees at night, to guns, even to horses.
00:24:45 I haven't gotten a refusal yet.
00:24:49 I'm afraid it's not as simple as that.
00:24:51 Some of those horses were pretty difficult customers.
00:24:54 It's no use, darling.
00:24:56 You're just dodging the real reason.
00:24:58 You're being sweet and thoughtful again.
00:25:00 But you're not making me forget that you're a Gentile and I'm a Jewess.
00:25:04 Think of the shock to our families.
00:25:06 This is no longer a family matter.
00:25:09 Spitz and Julie.
00:25:11 [music]
00:25:18 [cheering]
00:25:21 Hush, hush, hush.
00:25:23 I've had that crowd at me heels all day.
00:25:26 If they had any sense, it's you they'd be following around, not me.
00:25:31 Oh, we Rothschilds have had just as big crowds following at our heels in Frankfurt,
00:25:35 but not with cheers.
00:25:37 Well, I'll cheer for you.
00:25:38 Gladly.
00:25:39 And I hope one day Europe will realize she owes you something more than money.
00:25:44 Well, my father was a man of peace.
00:25:47 He told us never to loan money to make wars, always to end them.
00:25:51 And that's been our principle.
00:25:52 Everybody knows that and respects you for it.
00:25:55 No, Your Grace, they don't know it.
00:25:57 And they don't respect us.
00:25:58 Other bankers are jealous of us.
00:26:00 The man in the street thinks we're just Sherlocks.
00:26:03 And Europe hides its head for shame because it borrows from the Jews.
00:26:08 I suppose you know it's that Prussian fellow, Count Lederhans, that's responsible for that rot.
00:26:13 I know.
00:26:14 He hates me and all my race.
00:26:16 He's a proper jackass, Rothschild, and he ought to be hanged.
00:26:20 I must admit that the same happy thought has occurred to me more than once.
00:26:25 [laughter]
00:26:27 You know, it's a danger having a man like that in authority, always making enemies.
00:26:31 Well, if that's a danger, they may need us again.
00:26:35 What do you mean?
00:26:36 Well, perhaps we're not out of the woods yet.
00:26:38 Why, Napoleon's scotched.
00:26:40 Napoleon's in exile, but he's not dead.
00:26:43 As good as dead, Rothschild, as good as dead.
00:26:46 Ah, perhaps.
00:26:49 Another brandy, Your Grace.
00:26:51 Ah.
00:26:52 I often thought it would have saved a lot of trouble if Napoleon had been born an Englishman.
00:26:57 [laughter]
00:26:59 Where would I be then?
00:27:01 Why, his commanding officer, of course.
00:27:03 Oh. [laughter] Thank you.
00:27:06 Ah, sound brandy you've got here, Rothschild.
00:27:08 To the peace of Europe.
00:27:10 Well, I'm a soldier, but I'll drink to that.
00:27:12 [laughter]
00:27:15 I see, Rothschild, a little secret.
00:27:18 Mind you, I oughtn't to tell you this, but I just heard this morning that they are going to float a dash big loan to put France on her feet.
00:27:26 An enormous loan.
00:27:28 The biggest thing ever issued.
00:27:29 Yes.
00:27:30 Well, they've got to do something.
00:27:31 France has had 20 years of war and the whole country's torn up.
00:27:34 But now they've got peace.
00:27:36 They're going to get together, the five Allied powers, and help her out.
00:27:39 And the banking house that floats this loan will at once become the most powerful in Europe.
00:27:45 Its prestige will be enormous.
00:27:47 That's it.
00:27:49 Now's your chance.
00:27:51 Your Grace, I can't sufficiently thank you for this information.
00:27:54 Mind you, it's a dash dark secret, but it serves the chuckleheads right for telling me.
00:27:58 They ought to know by now I can keep a secret.
00:28:02 Send a message to Mr. Roworth and ask him to come to me here at once.
00:28:05 Yes, sir.
00:28:06 We'll drink to the house that floats the new French loan.
00:28:09 To the house of Rothschild.
00:28:11 And its greatest member.
00:28:15 Ah, there you are.
00:28:18 Miss Julie.
00:28:19 Your Grace.
00:28:21 Mrs. Rothschild, you've got to watch this young rooster.
00:28:24 I'm beginning to understand now why you were always asking for leave to return to London.
00:28:29 Now that you do understand, I trust you'll let him come more often?
00:28:31 It's against the regulation.
00:28:33 I only saw Julie five times, sir.
00:28:35 And once when you sent him with the dispatches to the Prime Minister,
00:28:37 Julie was waiting for him at the corner of Downing Street.
00:28:40 That, I hope, isn't against the regulations, Your Grace.
00:28:42 Not if he didn't speak to you.
00:28:44 We didn't think you knew about that, Nathan.
00:28:46 I'm afraid it's time to go, Your Grace.
00:28:48 All right. You can't fox this man.
00:28:50 He's a magician.
00:28:51 There's no question about that.
00:28:53 Oh!
00:28:54 I say, Rothschild, I've been told you knew about Napoleon's abdication
00:28:58 two days before the War Office did.
00:29:00 Is that true?
00:29:01 Yes.
00:29:02 But then the War Office never knows anything for two days after everybody else knows it.
00:29:06 Yes, and then they take two more days thinking it over.
00:29:08 But how did you do it?
00:29:10 They say Indians get things by putting their ears to the ground,
00:29:13 but you are not an Indian, are you?
00:29:15 No. Just playing Jerusalem with a heart of gold.
00:29:19 Well, I know something about sending dispatches.
00:29:22 My man Fitzroy here is the best at that.
00:29:24 But if I had 20 Fitches, I couldn't do it in that time.
00:29:27 You knew about Napoleon's abdication almost as soon as it happened.
00:29:31 How the deuce did you do it?
00:29:34 A little bird whispered in my ear.
00:29:36 Oh. You don't intend to tell me, eh?
00:29:39 I don't blame you.
00:29:41 Fitz, we'd better go before he makes us disappear like rabbits in a hat.
00:29:47 Mrs. Rothschild, you have a charming home.
00:29:50 And a charming daughter.
00:29:52 Your Grace.
00:29:53 I hope that dash crowd's gone.
00:29:56 Ah, thank you.
00:29:58 Are they still there?
00:30:02 And this is the man who faced the Grand Army.
00:30:06 Hush, hush, hush. Here, Fitzroy.
00:30:08 Here, sir. Brandy before the charge, always.
00:30:11 Ah, there's military tactics for you.
00:30:13 There's a young man who'll be a general someday.
00:30:16 Thank you.
00:30:17 Goodbye, Rothschild. And remember, it's a dash dark secret.
00:30:20 A thousand thanks, Your Grace.
00:30:22 There he goes.
00:30:32 Longing for the peace and the quiet of the battlefield.
00:30:35 Yes, sir.
00:30:37 Mom.
00:30:39 Mom, I ought to be very happy, but I'm not quite.
00:30:43 What is it, dear?
00:30:45 Fitz says it's nobody's business but ours.
00:30:47 Just his and mine.
00:30:49 But it's his wretched family I'm thinking of.
00:30:51 You know, Mother, nearly all of his aunts are duchesses and countesses.
00:30:54 And oh, I'm so afraid they'll turn up their noses.
00:30:56 He doesn't object to our money, I hope.
00:30:58 No. He says he's willing to overlook that.
00:31:00 Oh, I'm glad to hear that.
00:31:02 Father, please don't think of Fitz like that.
00:31:04 Please don't.
00:31:05 You're hurting her, Nathan.
00:31:07 Isn't that rather cruel?
00:31:08 Oh, no, it's my fault.
00:31:10 I never told father I really cared as much as I do.
00:31:12 And you didn't, either of you, think I knew.
00:31:15 We businessmen are not supposed to notice unimportant things like daughters and wives.
00:31:20 You should know better than that, Hannah.
00:31:22 Well, I knew she loved him.
00:31:24 But we thought we'd tell you when you got to know him better.
00:31:26 Julie, you know the tradition of our family.
00:31:30 A Rothschild to marry a Rothschild.
00:31:32 But I wasn't a Rothschild, Nathan.
00:31:34 No, but you were, Hannah.
00:31:36 And you were one of our race.
00:31:38 That's what frightens me, Mom.
00:31:40 Dreadful prejudices.
00:31:42 Could we bear it?
00:31:44 Fitz, bear it.
00:31:46 I won't pretend, Julie, that I wouldn't rather you married one of your own people.
00:31:50 It's a cruel barrier.
00:31:52 Yes.
00:31:54 But the world's changed a bit, especially in England.
00:31:58 There's no Jew street here.
00:32:00 And they're lifting other chains from us, too.
00:32:03 So, perhaps...
00:32:05 Oh, no, no, don't say perhaps. Say yes.
00:32:07 What do you think, Hannah?
00:32:09 I think girls should be allowed to make their own choice.
00:32:12 I'm not sure that I agree with you.
00:32:14 Oh, but this girl, Father.
00:32:16 Well, it's about the first time that I've known a Rothschild to make a bad bargain.
00:32:20 You are a Rothschild.
00:32:22 And the Duke of Wellington has told me
00:32:24 that the Rothschilds did a great deal for Europe during the war.
00:32:27 Now, what have your Fitzroy's done? Nothing.
00:32:29 Beyond repeatedly getting leave of absence from duty
00:32:32 and showing an unaccountable interest in orchids.
00:32:34 And a remarkable taste in women.
00:32:36 He doesn't show strength of character. Any fool could fall in love with you.
00:32:39 Oh, but not any fool could get your consent. He hasn't tried yet.
00:32:42 But he will. And when he does, you'll see him.
00:32:44 Oh, you darling.
00:32:46 Here's Rowarth looking positively shocked.
00:32:48 Don't go, Julie.
00:32:50 But I must. I'm engaged. Where are you going, Julie?
00:32:52 I'm going out to the orchid house.
00:32:54 Look at the orchids.
00:32:56 Rowarth.
00:32:59 I sent for you because I have tremendous news.
00:33:03 I must go to each of my brothers at once.
00:33:06 By what His Grace calls our magic.
00:33:10 Great news.
00:33:15 Yes, indeed.
00:33:18 Let me have the earliest possible dates
00:33:28 on which all private loans can be recalled.
00:33:30 Give instructions to grant no more private loans until further notice.
00:33:33 I must know at once the exact extent of our available capital.
00:33:36 The most important deal the House of Rothschild has ever attempted.
00:33:57 Oh, let me look at you.
00:34:00 Oh, you really look so very nice.
00:34:02 I'm sure I don't know how they're going to refuse you anything you ask.
00:34:05 I'm not depending entirely on my profile, Julie.
00:34:07 Where's my hat? Oh, the carriage hasn't come yet.
00:34:09 I'll take a hat. That's what I like to do.
00:34:11 It always makes me feel so independent.
00:34:13 Sure you won't let me put a little perfume on your handkerchief?
00:34:15 Quite sure, yes. You're so calm.
00:34:17 Aren't you excited at all about getting this great loan?
00:34:20 Who'll be there? Representatives of all the big banking houses in Europe.
00:34:23 Baring will be there, of course.
00:34:25 And the ministers of the countries interested, I suppose.
00:34:27 I suppose so.
00:34:28 Laid round for representing Prussia, Metternich from Austria, and the rest of them.
00:34:31 Still, you feel pretty sure, sir, don't you?
00:34:33 Sure of half of it anyhow.
00:34:35 I have private information that ours was the best bid.
00:34:38 The largest loan in history.
00:34:40 You know it's the proudest day of your life.
00:34:43 The proudest day of my life happened 30 years ago.
00:34:47 I shan't draw an easy breath.
00:34:49 Don't worry.
00:34:50 When I say that no other banking house in Europe can match our bid,
00:34:53 I'm not guessing, I know.
00:34:55 And now where's my hat?
00:34:56 On your head, I believe.
00:34:57 Oh, where it should be.
00:34:58 Where it shouldn't be, in the lady's presence.
00:35:00 I beg your pardon.
00:35:01 To downing the street and victory.
00:35:06 Goodbye.
00:35:08 Goodbye, Paul.
00:35:09 Good luck.
00:35:10 Thank you, sir.
00:35:18 But, Mr. Rothschild,
00:35:20 even your daughter, Miss Hewley, pays me more than this.
00:35:23 Miss Hewley has a very rich father. I have him.
00:35:25 Mr. Rothschild, how do you do?
00:35:31 Mr. Gamera.
00:35:32 Mr. Rothschild.
00:35:33 How do you do?
00:35:34 Very well, sir.
00:35:35 How are you, Rothschild?
00:35:36 Hello.
00:35:37 Am I too early or too late?
00:35:38 Early.
00:35:39 They're still in the conference room.
00:35:40 Oh.
00:35:41 Ladies and gentlemen.
00:35:47 Your hat.
00:35:48 Oh.
00:35:49 Thank you, Mr. Barrington.
00:35:51 The meeting is called to order.
00:35:55 Gentlemen,
00:35:56 bids for a French loan for 450 million francs
00:36:00 have been received and recorded.
00:36:02 Offers to take all or a part of the money
00:36:05 have been made.
00:36:06 The meeting is called to order.
00:36:08 Gentlemen,
00:36:09 bids for a French loan for 450 million francs
00:36:12 have been received and recorded.
00:36:14 Offers to take all or a part of the issue of bonds,
00:36:17 the greatest single issue in the history of European finance,
00:36:21 were received from the following banking houses.
00:36:24 J. Lafitte & Co., Paris.
00:36:27 Gemula, Vienna.
00:36:29 Hope, London.
00:36:30 Bertrand de Lis, Madrid.
00:36:33 Barring & Co., London.
00:36:35 It is the decision of the conference
00:36:37 that the highest authoritative bid
00:36:39 is that of Barring & Co., London.
00:36:42 They will be awarded three quarters of the issue at 71.
00:36:46 There being no further...
00:36:48 But you're mistaken, Mr. Harris. There is.
00:36:50 Mr. Nathan Rothschild.
00:36:52 I'm compelled, Mr. Arsene, gentlemen,
00:36:54 to draw your attention to what must certainly be an oversight.
00:36:57 I regret to say, Mr. Rothschild, the decision must stand.
00:37:00 But my house sent in its bid to take the entire issue,
00:37:03 and our price was a point better than Mr. Barrington's.
00:37:05 Why is that not recorded?
00:37:07 Perhaps Count Lederhans would like to explain the situation to Mr. Rothschild.
00:37:11 Your Excellency.
00:37:17 Your bid was received, Mr. Rothschild.
00:37:21 But to put it as delicately as possible, it was thrown out,
00:37:24 shall we say, on a technicality.
00:37:28 A technicality? What am I to understand by that?
00:37:32 You are at liberty to give my statement any interpretation you choose.
00:37:37 You mean, in brief, I am a Jew?
00:37:40 Likewise, in brief, I do.
00:37:45 Gentlemen, I must accept your decision.
00:37:49 But since Count Lederhans has been frank enough to admit the reason for our exclusion,
00:37:55 I venture to advise him that these attacks on my race are ignorant and futile.
00:38:01 He may strike and strike again.
00:38:04 A Jew falls, a thousand are wounded, but the race lives on.
00:38:11 But unfortunately for His Excellency, we are evidently eternal.
00:38:24 Mr. Harris, you say that Barrington takes three-fourths of the load.
00:38:28 May I ask who takes the other fourth?
00:38:31 That is being taken up by Count Lederhans, Prince Metternich, Count Talleyrand.
00:38:36 I see. A family party.
00:38:40 Good day, gentlemen.
00:38:42 Your luck is out, Mr. Rothschild.
00:38:47 [The letter is signed.]
00:38:55 [The letter is signed.]
00:39:24 [The letter is signed.]
00:39:31 Father!
00:39:33 Well, Father, what news? How stands the House of Rothschild?
00:39:37 Well, they've been throwing stones at it.
00:39:40 And I'm afraid some of the stones went wild, and hit you, Julie.
00:39:45 What do you mean?
00:39:47 I've just come from a meeting of men in society,
00:39:50 the kind of society to which Fitzroy belongs.
00:39:53 And they stone me because I'm a Jew.
00:39:56 Fitzroy isn't that so?
00:39:58 Julie, you must give him up.
00:40:00 Give him up? I can't.
00:40:02 I know best.
00:40:03 But you don't love him, I do.
00:40:04 Well, he continues to love you.
00:40:05 Father, this isn't like you.
00:40:06 You've always fought for what you wanted and got it.
00:40:08 Well, perhaps I'm a fighter too.
00:40:09 This fight's been going on for two thousand years.
00:40:11 The things are changing. You said so yourself.
00:40:13 I was a fool. I thought we'd swept away these prejudices, but I was a fool.
00:40:17 Fitz knows what he's doing. We've talked this thing all over.
00:40:19 We're ready to face the consequences.
00:40:20 Well, you're young, but what are the years to come?
00:40:22 There's no one else in the world for me but Fitz, and I won't give him up.
00:40:25 Well, Nathan.
00:40:28 What is it?
00:40:31 They didn't outbid you.
00:40:33 Yes.
00:40:34 My bid was thrown out on a technicality.
00:40:38 A technicality?
00:40:40 Because I'm a Jew.
00:40:42 But they did me a great service.
00:40:46 They showed me just how they were going to behave to Julie
00:40:49 if she married into their set.
00:40:52 You'll do as I bid you.
00:40:54 I'll try, Father.
00:40:57 Nathan, what have you said to her?
00:41:02 You can't ruin their lives.
00:41:04 No, I'm going to save them.
00:41:06 Hannah, she mustn't continue to see this man.
00:41:08 You must get her away.
00:41:09 But where?
00:41:10 Take her to Frankfurt and take her at once.
00:41:12 Excuse me, sir.
00:41:13 I heard the result of the meeting and came to offer my sympathy.
00:41:16 Oh, well, thanks.
00:41:18 If you have any spare sympathy, you might keep a little in reserve
00:41:21 for bearing Lederance and company.
00:41:23 I don't think they need it, sir.
00:41:25 No, they may later.
00:41:27 Do you realize that Lederance, Metternich, Talleyrand
00:41:32 and the rest of the party are taking a fourth of this loan
00:41:35 without a penny between them?
00:41:37 But they'll make millions on the rise.
00:41:39 Ah.
00:41:41 He's tired.
00:41:46 He's tired.
00:41:47 Perhaps I'd better call again later.
00:41:49 -Rod? -Sir?
00:41:51 If you could buy government 4% bonds at 60,
00:41:53 would you pay 74 for them?
00:41:55 -No, sir. -Would you, Hannah?
00:41:57 Goodness me, no.
00:41:58 I thought not.
00:41:59 Nathan, what's in your mind?
00:42:02 Murder.
00:42:04 Hannah, I'll tell you exactly what's in my mind.
00:42:08 And this may interest you too, Rod.
00:42:11 Bearing and those others headed by Lederance
00:42:15 have taken this new loan at 71.
00:42:18 On the first of the month, they're going to offer it to the public at 74.
00:42:22 It pays 4%.
00:42:24 But there is already in existence a previous government bond
00:42:28 which also pays 4%, of which we have a large holding.
00:42:32 This bond is now selling at 73.
00:42:35 Hannah says, "I'm tired, but I'm not too tired to realize
00:42:39 that if the public can buy one government bond for 73,
00:42:43 they won't buy a new issue bearing the same interest for 74."
00:42:47 That's true, sir.
00:42:48 But bearing and the other bankers will run up the old bonds,
00:42:50 and when they rise to about 75...
00:42:52 I know what you're going to say.
00:42:53 They'll make the old ones rise,
00:42:55 and then launch the new ones a point lower,
00:42:57 and the public rushes in.
00:42:58 Quite so, sir.
00:43:00 -But suppose there is no rise. -Hmm?
00:43:03 Suppose somebody pricks the balloon and it doesn't go up.
00:43:07 Suppose before they can run it up,
00:43:10 somebody else begins to run it down.
00:43:13 Suppose for the first of the month,
00:43:14 these old bonds now selling at 73 should fall down to 63.
00:43:18 Then they couldn't possibly launch the new loan at 74
00:43:21 -because nobody would buy it. -No.
00:43:23 And Bearing and Lederance and his little band of bankrupt brigands
00:43:28 will wait for it to go up.
00:43:30 But suppose instead of going up, it still goes down
00:43:34 to 55, to 50, to 45, to 40,
00:43:38 where they'll never be able to launch the loan at all.
00:43:41 And by God, that's where it's going!
00:43:43 Seven.
00:43:50 Seven.
00:43:55 Seven.
00:44:02 Seven.
00:44:03 Look at Rothschild.
00:44:07 You'd think he was selling apples instead of government bonds.
00:44:11 The bonds are now at 53.
00:44:13 All right.
00:44:14 I'll keep on selling till I tell you to stop.
00:44:16 You're creating something like a panic on the exchange, sir.
00:44:19 I know.
00:44:20 What kind of a flower is this that Hannah gave me this morning?
00:44:23 I don't know, sir.
00:44:24 Very pretty.
00:44:26 It smells nice, too.
00:44:28 Mr. Rothschild, do you know what you're doing to the market?
00:44:30 What have you heard?
00:44:32 Well, dear fellow, I don't hear things.
00:44:33 I just imagine them.
00:44:34 Do you know what kind of a flower this is?
00:44:36 No!
00:44:37 52!
00:44:42 52!
00:44:44 That means I've done about 25 million francs.
00:44:46 And you're the same, Lederance.
00:44:48 Can't something be done to stop him, Baring?
00:44:50 You're the biggest banker in England.
00:44:52 Are we all to be ruined by the gymnastics of a dirty shylock?
00:44:55 I've thrown the entire resources of Baring's bank into the pool,
00:44:58 but I can't stop it.
00:45:00 He's got us on the run.
00:45:02 Good.
00:45:03 I bet you half a crown that Baring makes straight for this post within two minutes.
00:45:10 I'll take you, sir.
00:45:12 I'm tired of losing money.
00:45:14 I'd like to win some.
00:45:16 You're a magician, sir.
00:45:25 Here he is.
00:45:27 Mr. Rothschild, I don't have to tell you this is nothing less than slaughter.
00:45:31 You know my position.
00:45:32 I'm responsible for this new issue at 71,
00:45:34 and you're making it impossible for me to put it on the market.
00:45:36 We are both bankers.
00:45:37 You knew I ought to have had a share of this loan.
00:45:39 Why did you shut me out?
00:45:40 Certain pressure was brought to bear on me.
00:45:42 Ha! Lederance.
00:45:44 Well, yes.
00:45:45 Then let Lederance speak for himself.
00:45:47 All right, Mr. Baring.
00:45:48 I'll come.
00:45:49 I'll follow you.
00:45:51 About how much has this thing cost us up to now?
00:45:54 About five million pounds.
00:45:56 All right.
00:45:57 We'll make ten.
00:45:59 I hope you haven't kept anything from me.
00:46:12 I haven't.
00:46:13 I've got a lot of money.
00:46:14 I've got a lot of money.
00:46:15 I've got a lot of money.
00:46:16 I've got a lot of money.
00:46:17 I've got a lot of money.
00:46:18 I've got a lot of money.
00:46:19 I hope I haven't kept you waiting, gentlemen,
00:46:21 because I know you must all be very busy.
00:46:26 We sent for you, Rothschild, to make you an offer.
00:46:29 You resent being left out of this loan.
00:46:32 Mr. Baring, as you know, holds three quarters of it.
00:46:35 He's prepared part with half of that to you.
00:46:38 Will that satisfy you?
00:46:39 What about the other quarter?
00:46:41 That, as you know, is held by us.
00:46:43 Oh, yes. You bought it at 71.
00:46:44 Well, we're responsible for it.
00:46:45 You bought it at 71.
00:46:46 It was allotted to us.
00:46:47 Not against your will, I hope.
00:46:48 Certainly not.
00:46:49 So you bought at 71.
00:46:50 What do you mean, bought it?
00:46:51 Can you pay for it at 71?
00:46:52 You know perfectly well that no one is prepared to pay in full
00:46:55 for an entire issue.
00:46:56 Well, you're prepared to pay anything.
00:46:58 Could you have stood a 10-point drop?
00:46:59 No.
00:47:00 You took it for a raise.
00:47:01 You're financially irresponsible to a whole lot of you,
00:47:04 except Mr. Baring.
00:47:05 I know just how much money you've got each one of you.
00:47:08 And if I like to hold down the market
00:47:09 till after the first of the month, and I can,
00:47:12 you're all ruined and dishonored, including Baring's bank.
00:47:17 Now, I'll rescue you on one condition.
00:47:21 That you pass me the entire issue at 68.
00:47:24 That's impossible.
00:47:25 Now, what excuse can we offer to the public?
00:47:28 Just say it was found necessary.
00:47:29 On what grounds?
00:47:31 Oh, on a technicality.
00:47:35 No.
00:47:36 Very well.
00:47:37 Wait, please.
00:47:38 We have to deal with Mr. Rothschild.
00:47:40 Under the circumstances, I consider his offer a generous one.
00:47:44 And as the head of the House of Baring,
00:47:46 I insist on Mr. Rothschild's terms being accepted.
00:47:49 What?
00:47:50 Are you going to take it off our hands, Rothschild?
00:47:52 That's on common good of you.
00:47:54 I can't mess around.
00:47:55 Are you also on the preferred list?
00:47:58 Yes, but I much prefer to be off of it.
00:48:05 Well, we've no choice.
00:48:07 I accept.
00:48:08 I say yes without hesitation.
00:48:11 Complete rants?
00:48:13 Very well.
00:48:15 To save time, I have this little contract drawn,
00:48:20 which I shall ask you gentlemen to sign.
00:48:31 You seem to have been very sure of yourself.
00:48:35 I was.
00:48:37 Quite.
00:48:41 Will you sign first?
00:48:47 49.
00:48:57 You won your fight with me, Jew.
00:49:01 But remember, victory may be bought too dearly.
00:49:08 (crowd chattering)
00:49:30 Late rants.
00:49:32 What are you going to do, sir?
00:49:33 I'm going to Frankfurt.
00:49:34 I'll leave within an hour.
00:49:39 (crowd chattering)
00:50:07 (laughing)
00:50:36 (laughing)
00:50:41 Get out.
00:50:42 Get out, you doctors.
00:50:44 You can't even cure a bellyache.
00:50:46 Take your pills and get out.
00:50:48 You're no good.
00:50:50 Come, come, Mama.
00:50:51 You know the doctor's doing everything he can for you.
00:50:54 You must remember, Mrs. Rothschild,
00:50:56 you are 88 years old, and I can't make you any younger.
00:51:01 I'm not asking you to make me any younger.
00:51:03 I'm asking you to make me older.
00:51:05 (laughing)
00:51:07 She's better.
00:51:08 She's insulting people.
00:51:10 There's nothing to nag about her.
00:51:12 Trust nerves.
00:51:13 Nerves?
00:51:14 Do you think I'm afraid of that rabble?
00:51:17 I've had 88 years of this, and I'm not dead yet.
00:51:21 But we want you to come away with us for a few months.
00:51:24 You're not safe here.
00:51:25 I was born here, and I'll die here.
00:51:29 And that won't be soon, either.
00:51:31 I'll live a dozen years here.
00:51:33 Nathan, you ought to know enough about bargains
00:51:35 to know the Lord isn't going to take me at 88
00:51:37 when he can get me at 100.
00:51:39 (laughing)
00:51:43 Well, Nathan, what's brought you here all of a sudden?
00:51:45 He came to see his wife and family.
00:51:47 I've been doing that girl of yours.
00:51:48 She goes mewing about like a cat that's lost her kittens.
00:51:51 She needs a change.
00:51:52 She needs a husband.
00:51:53 That's what's the matter with her.
00:51:54 What about one of the Goldschmidt boys?
00:51:56 I'm afraid Julie has ideas of her own.
00:51:58 Then leave her alone.
00:51:59 She's no fool.
00:52:02 (crickets chirping)
00:52:05 (crowd chattering)
00:52:16 Can you tell me which is the Rothschild house?
00:52:23 Yeah.
00:52:24 (glass shattering)
00:52:29 That's it.
00:52:30 (crowd chattering)
00:52:33 What's the use of all pretending?
00:52:42 I don't pretend to father.
00:52:44 He knows exactly how I feel.
00:52:46 But you see, darling, he's determined, too.
00:52:48 But you know we can't give each other up.
00:52:50 Sending you away from me only makes matters worse.
00:52:54 Did you tell him you'd give me up?
00:52:56 I told him I'd try.
00:52:59 I don't seem to be trying very hard, do I?
00:53:02 Let me look at you.
00:53:08 How long did it take you to get here?
00:53:10 How long have you been riding?
00:53:11 I left yesterday morning.
00:53:12 How'd you manage?
00:53:13 I asked Nosy for leave.
00:53:14 Who's Nosy?
00:53:15 Oh, that's what we call the duke behind his back.
00:53:17 Oh.
00:53:18 I think he guessed where I was bound for.
00:53:20 Mm-hmm.
00:53:21 Anyhow, he said yes.
00:53:22 Mm-hmm.
00:53:23 Of course, I had no idea your father was here.
00:53:27 No, of course not.
00:53:29 What are we going to do?
00:53:31 I'm going to see him and have it out.
00:53:33 Yes.
00:53:34 Oh, darling, won't you see this through with me somehow?
00:53:38 I've got you, and I'm going to keep you.
00:53:40 Then would you be very brave, a soldier, and wear this ring?
00:53:51 Oh, yes.
00:53:52 It's one of those family things my mother wore.
00:53:55 Oh, it's lovely.
00:53:57 What's the meaning of this?
00:53:58 Father, Fitz has only just arrived.
00:54:04 I saw him and brought him in here.
00:54:06 Does your mother know?
00:54:07 No.
00:54:08 No, nobody knows but us.
00:54:09 Why are you here?
00:54:10 You knew my wishes?
00:54:11 I came here for the same reason you did, sir.
00:54:14 I heard there was trouble, and Julie was in danger.
00:54:17 Go to your mother.
00:54:18 I'd rather stay and hear what you have to say to Fitz.
00:54:20 Please go, Julie.
00:54:22 It's no use, father.
00:54:23 I had a good reason for keeping you and my daughter apart.
00:54:31 I desire that you respect my wishes.
00:54:33 If Julie weren't agreeable, I wouldn't be here, sir.
00:54:36 But her happiness is involved as well as mine.
00:54:38 Unfortunately, we differ as to where her happiness lies.
00:54:42 What has changed your attitude toward me, sir?
00:54:45 Captain Fitzry, I doubt we'll ever be friends again.
00:54:49 Captain Fitzry, I doubt whether there's a single man in London today
00:54:53 who would suspect me of being a sentimental fool,
00:54:55 which apparently I have been.
00:54:57 But fortunately, I have a certain amount of common sense,
00:54:59 which sometimes comes to my rescue.
00:55:01 You'll please understand that your attentions to my daughter
00:55:04 are objectionable to me.
00:55:06 What is your objection?
00:55:07 You're not of our race.
00:55:08 That's an objection I think you might have raised a great deal earlier.
00:55:11 I'm a sentimental fool.
00:55:12 Walk through this ghetto.
00:55:14 Go into the Jewish quarter of any town in Prussia today,
00:55:17 and you'll see men lying dead.
00:55:20 Julie's people killed by your people
00:55:23 for but one crime, that they were Jews.
00:55:27 Now do you understand?
00:55:28 I'm sorry, sir, but I still love Julie.
00:55:31 Julie is a Rothschild,
00:55:33 and she'll not marry without her father's consent.
00:55:36 Good day.
00:55:38 Good day.
00:55:40 Fitz, Fitz, no matter what happens,
00:55:57 no matter even if what Father says is true,
00:55:59 I love you.
00:56:01 Always.
00:56:07 The Jews of Prussia know that this uprising
00:56:10 is the direct result of your quarrel with Leydrantz,
00:56:13 and that has made them bitter against you.
00:56:16 Nathan has done more for the Jews in England
00:56:18 than any man who ever lived.
00:56:20 England isn't Prussia, Mama.
00:56:21 Leydrantz has his agents everywhere.
00:56:23 They spread lies and propaganda.
00:56:26 We've got to put the screws on.
00:56:28 Money is the only screws we have.
00:56:30 And now, with Napoleon in exile,
00:56:32 Leydrantz and the Allies need us no more.
00:56:36 It's queer, isn't it?
00:56:38 We fight for the peace of Europe,
00:56:40 and with peace, we lose our power.
00:56:43 Well, you've got to do something.
00:56:44 They burned down the Levy's house last night,
00:56:46 and they'd burn down this one if they dared,
00:56:48 but they're afraid of me.
00:56:50 You tell all those kings and ministers you feed
00:56:53 that if they don't stop this outrage,
00:56:55 you will stop their pocket money.
00:56:59 If I thought Leydrantz would listen,
00:57:01 if I thought I could make him call off his dogs,
00:57:04 I'd go to him, but--
00:57:06 Now don't worry, Nathan, and make yourself sick.
00:57:09 The Lord isn't going to desert us.
00:57:12 So take a rest.
00:57:14 Leave the work to him.
00:57:16 If there was only some way you could handle Leydrantz.
00:57:21 For the sake of our Jewish people,
00:57:24 I think you should go to him, Nathan.
00:57:28 Grovel at his feet, eh?
00:57:30 All right.
00:57:31 If you think so, I'll go.
00:57:33 He must have his price.
00:57:35 And whatever it is, I'll pay it.
00:57:37 I'll make you gentlemen pay for your wine.
00:57:45 The cards seem to favor you tonight, Your Excellency.
00:57:48 Well, they should.
00:57:49 They're my cards.
00:57:52 Ah, Colonel, any news?
00:57:54 Good news, Your Excellency.
00:57:57 Dresden, entire ghetto reduced to ashes by fire.
00:58:02 It is estimated that 5,000 Jewish refugees
00:58:04 crossed the border into the Netherlands.
00:58:06 I have dispatched three agents to The Hague
00:58:08 to stir up the populace there.
00:58:10 Frankfurt, the citizens stormed the ghetto
00:58:12 and fired two houses.
00:58:15 A serious pogrom was prevented by the arrival
00:58:17 of the civic guard.
00:58:19 Who ordered out the civic guard?
00:58:20 The burgomaster, but he won't interfere again.
00:58:22 We've explained Your Excellency's campaign.
00:58:25 Ah.
00:58:26 Well, that's splendid news, Colonel.
00:58:30 I have still better news for Your Excellency.
00:58:32 Yes?
00:58:33 Nathan Rothschild is in Frankfurt.
00:58:35 He arrived from London last night.
00:58:39 If he tries to leave, I want him arrested at the border
00:58:42 and brought to me here.
00:58:43 Yes, Your Excellency.
00:58:45 Upon what grounds?
00:58:46 Make your own grounds.
00:58:48 Yes, Your Excellency.
00:58:50 The house of Rothschild.
00:58:53 The house with the red shield.
00:58:57 I'll make it red.
00:59:24 That's him, the one in the heavy coat.
00:59:27 Goodbye, Your Excellency.
00:59:28 And I promise you I won't come back
00:59:30 without an agreement from Laidrance
00:59:32 to stop this pope, whatever the cost may be.
00:59:36 May God be with him.
00:59:37 Send word to stop his carriers as he starts
00:59:39 to pass through the city gates.
00:59:41 Seize him and place him under arrest.
00:59:43 Quick.
00:59:46 Mr. Rothschild!
00:59:47 Mr. Rothschild!
00:59:48 What is it, Schumann?
00:59:49 This message just arrived at the office, sir.
00:59:51 It's for Mr. Nathan.
00:59:52 Me?
00:59:53 Yes, sir.
00:59:54 What is it?
01:00:06 Napoleon has escaped from Elba.
01:00:08 Escaped?
01:00:09 The French are rallying to his banner by thousands.
01:00:12 This means war, another war.
01:00:15 Now you can go to Laidrance.
01:00:17 Now he needs you.
01:00:19 Now relax.
01:00:20 Oh, I won't go to Laidrance.
01:00:23 Laidrance will come here to the ghetto.
01:00:26 Michael, bring my baggage back.
01:00:28 I'm not going.
01:00:29 Very well, sir.
01:00:30 Of course, Wellington, I am prime minister,
01:00:35 but you are the idol of the people.
01:00:37 My dear fellow, I am going to retire quietly to the country,
01:00:41 surrounded by me dogs and me books and--
01:00:44 Yes?
01:00:45 For his grace.
01:00:46 Ah, for me, eh?
01:00:48 Will you excuse me?
01:00:49 Yes, yes.
01:00:50 That bluffing little Corsican is back.
01:00:57 What?
01:00:58 Oh, Laidrance.
01:01:01 I gave orders not to be disturbed.
01:01:03 It's important, sir.
01:01:04 Word has just reached us.
01:01:06 Napoleon has escaped, and he's in France mobilizing his army.
01:01:09 Oh, my dear.
01:01:18 Well, well, well.
01:01:19 Yes?
01:01:20 My, you're walking just like a young girl.
01:01:25 Well, boys?
01:01:28 There they are.
01:01:32 Come here.
01:01:37 Let's have another look at you.
01:01:38 You're all growing up, aren't you?
01:01:43 Nathan, I think you're getting fat.
01:01:47 I'm proud of you.
01:01:49 All of you.
01:01:50 Your father would have been 92 today.
01:01:54 Ours is the richest banking house in Europe,
01:01:58 and we're still being kicked.
01:02:01 It looks as though we haven't played our cards very well, doesn't it?
01:02:05 Perhaps we haven't.
01:02:06 I'm not criticizing.
01:02:07 I think we're open to criticism, Mama.
01:02:09 And that's what has brought us all together here today.
01:02:12 Oh, is it?
01:02:13 I thought you came here to see me.
01:02:15 It seems it takes a war and a Jewish pogrom to get us all together nowadays.
01:02:20 Now, that's not fair, Mama.
01:02:22 You know way too much.
01:02:23 Well, don't let's waste time in compliments.
01:02:26 What have you come for?
01:02:29 James.
01:02:31 Nathan, you run the English house,
01:02:36 and so you have the sea between you and trouble.
01:02:38 But we, Carl and Solomon and Amshel and I, are here in the furnace.
01:02:43 I know.
01:02:44 And with Napoleon on the map again, our position is intolerable.
01:02:47 Napoleon will be in Paris in a week,
01:02:49 with the whole army rallying to his banner and deserting Louis.
01:02:52 Napoleon's soldiers must be paid,
01:02:54 and if he can't borrow money, he'll take it.
01:02:57 Has he suggested a loan?
01:02:59 Yes.
01:03:00 He sent for me as head of the Paris house.
01:03:03 I went to see him in Lyon, and he made a definite proposal.
01:03:06 Now, listen, Nathan, before you give an opinion,
01:03:08 we've issued 450 million francs worth of bonds
01:03:12 for a government which started packing at the first blast of a bugle.
01:03:16 Napoleon guarantees the payment of these bonds down to the last centime,
01:03:20 and on future loans, he agrees to double the interest offered by his enemies.
01:03:25 What have the Allies to offer us?
01:03:27 From the simple standpoint of business, we shouldn't hesitate a day longer.
01:03:30 A refusal to support Napoleon means
01:03:32 not only the probable loss of a murderous sum,
01:03:34 but James's Paris business, my Naples business, will be wiped out like that,
01:03:38 and Amshel's and Solomon's are in great danger.
01:03:40 It's no longer a question with me.
01:03:42 We should support Napoleon.
01:03:44 As far as I can see, the Allies seem to be under the thumb
01:03:47 of a tyrant from Austria and a scoundrel from Prussia,
01:03:50 Metternich and Laidrence.
01:03:51 Marmarege said we are still being kicked, and she's right.
01:03:56 For a quarter of a century, we have stood with the Allies,
01:03:59 and apart from what we've got out of it personally,
01:04:01 houses, fine clothes, carriages,
01:04:03 as Jews, we are just where we started,
01:04:07 in the Jew street, waiting for the chains to be put up.
01:04:11 I agree with the others.
01:04:13 We've got to transfer our support to Napoleon
01:04:16 and start over again with him.
01:04:19 Well, son?
01:04:23 You're right, all of you.
01:04:26 And the word you've said is true.
01:04:29 But still, we must fight Napoleon.
01:04:33 Why?
01:04:34 Well, because we are the Rothschilds.
01:04:39 For the time being, anyway,
01:04:41 we are something more than five rich Jews
01:04:44 looking for the main chance.
01:04:46 We know, the world knows,
01:04:48 that until Napoleon is gone forever,
01:04:50 there can be no peace in Europe for Jew or Gentile.
01:04:54 You can't deny it, any of you.
01:04:56 We've got to take the risk.
01:04:59 We've got to swallow our pride,
01:05:01 to stomach our resentment.
01:05:03 We've got to go against every normal, selfish impulse in us
01:05:08 and do what is right for the world.
01:05:10 We can go hand in hand with Napoleon
01:05:13 and spread this war over years.
01:05:15 We can pay for fire and blood
01:05:18 till all Europe is a slaughterhouse.
01:05:21 And the Jew would stand as a pawnbroker in lives.
01:05:27 We can't do it.
01:05:30 We must stand as we've always stood.
01:05:34 Not for war, but for peace.
01:05:37 And if we all go down,
01:05:40 we'll go down with honor.
01:05:44 We'll leave no shame anywhere.
01:05:49 My son, that is what your father would have said.
01:05:56 You're right. I agree.
01:05:59 I agree.
01:06:01 The house with the red shield, Your Excellency.
01:06:18 The Philly stands are upon us.
01:06:28 Who is it?
01:06:29 Metternich, Talladau and Laidroth.
01:06:33 Who could that be, the tax collector?
01:06:39 Something very like it, Mama.
01:06:41 Is Mr. Nathan Rothschild here?
01:06:47 Your Excellency will enter.
01:06:53 Renard, this is a great pleasure.
01:06:57 But how did you find your way?
01:06:59 The Duke of Wellington was kind enough to supply us with a guide,
01:07:02 Captain Fitzroy, who has, I believe, been here before.
01:07:07 Why don't you come in?
01:07:11 My brothers and I were speaking of you only this moment.
01:07:17 Prince Metternich.
01:07:18 I won't burden you with introductions,
01:07:20 except perhaps to my mother, who was startled by your arrival.
01:07:24 She thought you were the tax collector, Count Laidroth.
01:07:27 Welcome to our ghetto.
01:07:29 You will forgive this unexpected visit?
01:07:32 Certainly. We were expecting it.
01:07:34 Then we may assume you know precisely why we are here.
01:07:38 Not the precise amount, but approximately.
01:07:41 May I congratulate you on your brilliant sons, Mother Rothschild?
01:07:44 Yes, I'm told I'm the mother of half the loans in Europe.
01:07:49 I am here at the request of the Duke of Wellington and the Allied governments.
01:07:53 In that case, my brothers too are interested.
01:07:56 Won't you sit down?
01:07:58 We will not intrude very long.
01:08:00 Well, you're chained in at six.
01:08:02 Speaking for myself, I admit that I come as a penitent.
01:08:07 We've not always treated you quite fairly, Nathan,
01:08:10 and now, frankly, we need you.
01:08:13 You should join Wellington on the field of battle.
01:08:16 He once told me that the test of a great general
01:08:19 is to know when to retreat and to have the courage to do it.
01:08:22 The Allies need money.
01:08:26 We're not asking you to give anything.
01:08:28 You're moneylenders and you'll get your interest.
01:08:30 Are you sure of that?
01:08:32 Don't you trust the powers?
01:08:33 No. Austria's bankrupt.
01:08:35 France is already in the hands of Napoleon.
01:08:37 And so is Italy.
01:08:38 Why don't you go to the other bankers? Your own bankers?
01:08:41 We have not sufficient capital.
01:08:43 You mean they won't take the chance?
01:08:44 What if Napoleon wins?
01:08:46 I suppose there must be a certain amount of risk in your business.
01:08:49 No, we ask security.
01:08:51 What security can you offer us?
01:08:53 Ah, then don't say you're not asking us to give anything.
01:08:56 You're asking us to give a great deal.
01:08:58 I see no reason for prolonging this meeting.
01:09:00 As you say, we are moneylenders, not philanthropists.
01:09:04 We do it for profit.
01:09:06 You may as well know that Napoleon
01:09:08 has offered us twice as much as you can promise us,
01:09:11 and we've decided to take his offer.
01:09:13 Gone over to the enemy, eh?
01:09:15 I must admit, I'm amazed.
01:09:17 How will Napoleon get the money to pay you?
01:09:19 Steal it.
01:09:20 That's not our business.
01:09:22 I always thought you stood for peace.
01:09:25 For 20 years, we've been supporting the peace of Europe.
01:09:29 Now we're thinking of the peace of our own people.
01:09:31 - The Jews. - Yes.
01:09:33 Napoleon will give us our freedom.
01:09:35 That's why we are for Napoleon.
01:09:42 Is that your only reason for deserting the Allies?
01:09:46 I resent being cross-questioned by you, Count Leydrans.
01:09:50 I think His Excellency was about to make a proposition.
01:09:54 Oh.
01:09:56 Well...
01:09:59 If we gave you all the freedom that Napoleon could give you,
01:10:03 would you then be willing to sacrifice
01:10:05 the financial advantage of his offer?
01:10:08 Count Leydrans, we are moneylenders.
01:10:12 Come, come, Nathan. After all these years...
01:10:14 What do you offer?
01:10:16 What do you want?
01:10:19 Brothers, may I speak for you?
01:10:22 - Yes, Your Excellency. - Yes, of course.
01:10:24 We require an agreement, a treaty,
01:10:28 signed and guaranteed by your governments,
01:10:31 giving to our people absolute freedom.
01:10:34 In this agreement, they would lose their chains.
01:10:38 They would have the right to follow any trade,
01:10:41 to own land, to live with respect,
01:10:44 and...
01:10:46 Remember what our father said, Mama?
01:10:50 To walk the world with dignity.
01:10:53 I fear we will have to lay that before our respective governments.
01:10:59 You are your respective governments, and you know it.
01:11:02 The day this agreement is signed,
01:11:04 the resources of the House of Rothschild will be at your command,
01:11:07 and not before.
01:11:09 Very well, we accept.
01:11:12 Pray excuse this, Madam.
01:11:20 Some Gentile has evidently strayed into our quarter.
01:11:30 Goodbye, my precious.
01:11:32 - Goodbye, dear. - Who's got my hat?
01:11:34 Oh, here you are, Father.
01:11:36 - James. - Father, I'll go on with the carriage with Michael.
01:11:40 All right, my dear. James.
01:11:42 It's of vital importance that we should have first-hand news from field of battle.
01:11:46 Somebody to be close to Wellington's troops.
01:11:48 Who can we trust?
01:11:50 In time of war, nobody.
01:11:52 What about you? Will you do it?
01:11:55 Yes, and I'll get word to you every day.
01:11:59 Of every move they make, the instant they make it,
01:12:02 and always by the usual method.
01:12:05 - Mama? - I'll come to the door with you.
01:12:28 You won't let it be a long war, will you?
01:12:32 It shall be just as short as our money can make it.
01:12:36 Good luck.
01:12:54 Goodbye, Mama.
01:12:56 Goodbye, dear.
01:12:58 It's a horse, dear.
01:13:23 Goodbye, dear.
01:13:25 This time I'm here by command of the Duke of Wellington, sir.
01:13:33 Give me the ring quickly.
01:13:45 Darling.
01:13:52 Well...
01:13:54 I must say, I hope the entire war isn't going to be conducted on this romantic basis.
01:14:03 Seventh Viceroy, I give Napoleon 100 days.
01:14:16 No longer.
01:14:18 If at the end of that time you're still alive,
01:14:21 and you seem to be the type of young man that can't be killed,
01:14:24 you can come and talk to me in London.
01:14:26 Thank you, sir. I shall count the days.
01:14:29 Goodbye.

01:15:41 Nathan, the Times says there's a rumor that the Stock Exchange won't open today.
01:15:46 I wish it were true, but it isn't.
01:15:49 Hannah, sit down.
01:15:53 When people become rich, very rich, they have grave responsibilities.
01:16:00 I know.
01:16:02 I mean moral responsibilities that come with money that poor people never know.
01:16:06 Yes.
01:16:08 Do you dare to be poor? Really poor?
01:16:11 I'm asking you now because tonight may be too late.
01:16:14 Tell me what you mean.
01:16:16 I'm buying on the Stock Exchange when everyone else is selling it.
01:16:19 I'm risking everything we have to save the credit of England.
01:16:22 I'm sticking to the bargain I made.
01:16:25 But things look bad for us, Hannah. Very bad.
01:16:28 Are you doing what you feel you should do?
01:16:32 Yes.
01:16:34 Do what you think is right.
01:16:36 I'm telling you, I love you all the more.
01:16:39 And whatever happens, with your love and your flower in my buttonhole,
01:16:50 I'll still be the richest man in the world.
01:16:54 Father, Mr. Rolfes wrote a message. May we hear it?
01:16:58 It just came, sir. I thought you should have it before going to the Exchange.
01:17:02 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:05 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:08 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:11 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:14 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:17 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:20 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:23 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:26 I'm sorry, I didn't have time.
01:17:30 Father, you said you gave Napoleon 100 days.
01:17:34 This is the 100th day.
01:17:37 Fitz hasn't come back to me.
01:17:40 Remember, I'm a magician.
01:17:49 My day may be over, but I know there's a message of love and hope on its way for you.
01:17:57 I love you.
01:18:00 I love you.
01:18:03 I love you.
01:18:06 I love you.

01:20:38 Too late, Mr Rothschild! You've backed the wrong horse this time, Rothschild! You've lost your luck!
01:20:45 Michael!
01:20:56 Bye!
01:20:59 Bye!
01:21:01 Yes, bye!
01:21:04 Have you had any news? What do you think about this rumor?
01:21:06 I don't listen to rumors, Mr Baring.
01:21:08 You hear what they say. Wellington defeated. You must tell me what you're going to do.
01:21:11 I have no objection to all London knowing what I'm going to do. I am buying!
01:21:15 Mrs Rothschild asked me to give you this.
01:21:23 Did she come here to the exchange?
01:21:27 - So? - Yes.

01:22:07 Look at Rothschild. Did you ever see such a cold-blooded fish?
01:22:11 He puts a flower on his coat as he stands on the scaffold with a rope around his neck.
01:22:16 News. Just arrived.
01:22:22 In chains.
01:22:28 (crowd clamoring)
01:22:30 Wellington victorious at Waterloo.
01:22:40 Napoleon defeated. The war is over.
01:22:43 Gentlemen, listen, listen.
01:22:45 I have news. News from Waterloo.
01:22:50 Napoleon is beaten.
01:22:53 (laughing)
01:22:54 You've been over-buying. Don't play tricks on us.
01:22:56 - It's a border! - It is true.
01:22:58 - Wellington has won at Waterloo. - Where?
01:23:00 - How did you get the news? - Yes, how did you get the news?
01:23:03 I carry a pigeon. I pigeon-poached from the battlefield.
01:23:07 Now you know our secret. Now we'll abide.
01:23:11 Buy it with every security you have. Buy it without security.
01:23:14 Buy it with every hope you have. Buy it. Buy it.
01:23:17 (crowd clamoring)
01:23:19 (crowd clamoring)
01:23:21 Oh, Mr. Rothschild, do tell me how it feels to be the richest man in the world.
01:23:43 One has to be very clever to make a fortune these days.
01:23:47 Perhaps, but far more clever to keep it.
01:23:50 (laughing)
01:23:52 Really? Well, I wish you'd tell me how to make money on the stock exchange.
01:23:56 - What's the recipe? - Oh, same as for a cold bath.
01:24:00 Quick in and quick out.
01:24:02 (laughing)
01:24:04 Take your hands out of your pockets.
01:24:14 Thank you, madam.
01:24:17 (crowd cheering)
01:24:19 Strange, isn't it?
01:24:24 If young people like that should be just as interested in romance as you and I.
01:24:29 - May I congratulate you, young people? - Thank you, Your Grace.
01:24:36 - Nathan, you're worried about something. - Yes, ma'am, I am. I'm confoundedly worried.
01:24:40 - What is it? - Well, Mr. Rothschild, my congratulations.
01:24:43 You're just the man I wanted to see. I'm very worried.
01:24:46 Which knee do I kneel on when I go before His Royal Highness?

01:25:33 who by his generosity and courage played so large a part in bringing victory and peace to Europe.
01:25:40 His loyalty never wavered. His faith in England never faltered.
01:25:45 To England he has brought nothing but honor.
01:25:48 And for England, we thank you, Baron Nathan Rothschild.
01:25:53 (music playing)
01:25:55 Anna, I used the wrong knee.
01:26:02 (laughing)
01:26:04 To trade with dignity.
01:26:14 To live with dignity.
01:26:17 To walk the world with dignity.
