00:00Once upon a time, isn't that what all the great narrators say?
00:19Great.
00:20Once upon a time, in this really enormous place called Russia, which was cold a lot
00:25but actually very beautiful, there lived this Tsar.
00:29In Russia, Tsars are like a king.
00:32Are we all on the same page?
00:33Great.
00:34And this Tsar's name was Nicholas II.
00:35And this Tsar, who was really nice once you got to know him, had a queen whose name was
00:46Alexandra.
00:47She was very beautiful.
00:48All right.
00:49So the royal couple had three children, the handsome, daring, and brave Prince Alexei.
00:57The pain in the royal neck, but basically all right, Princess Titania, and the youngest,
01:04Princess Anastasia.
01:05Sweet kid, huh?
01:06Yes, I know.
01:07Anyway, this family all lived happily in this fantastic house, which was called the Imperial
01:16Castle of Moscow.
01:17What a great name, huh?
01:18Well, it was a great place, too.
01:19Let me tell you.
01:21But that was a long time ago, before the time of the marching boots, you know, the big revolution,
01:30before the last winter, when everything changed for us forever.
01:36I need Anastasia quickly.
01:38Papa, don't leave me behind.
01:40Please, Papa, I beg you.
01:42Don't leave me behind.
01:44It's too late.
01:46It's too late.
01:51Mama?
01:54Papa?
01:55But that last cold winter, which felt like the end, actually led to a new beginning many
02:02years later.
02:16Well, Goufanoff, is she up there?
02:36Goufanoff!
02:37Here, pretty little raven birdie, come to daddums, you sweet little black birdie of death.
02:43Goufanoff, where's the girl?
02:53Well, Master Gray, Master Grayman, sir, all my sources point to this abandoned ruin.
02:59Sir?
03:00Grayman, sir?
03:01Is that what we're calling you these days?
03:04Grayman?
03:05Oh, that's good.
03:07Spooky.

05:23Goufanoff!
05:25You, of course, were sheer perfection, Anastasia.
05:29Yes, but such a sad song.
05:32I'm feeling sad a lot lately.
05:34I don't know why.
05:48All of you, behave yourselves.
05:50We're the proper quartet, not some common street band.
05:53But I do want a little more orchestra.
05:59Oh, poor Tuba.
06:01That's the first real laugh I've had in so long.
06:05Happy to help out.
06:07I love you all so much.
06:09I don't know what I'd do without you.
06:11Well, here's hoping you never have to find out.
06:19Now you hush there.
06:21I love you too, Anastasia.
06:23Nothing will ever change that.
06:26But one day you may have to go on without us.
06:29No.
06:30Never.
06:31Never say never, my dear.
06:33Just know that should that day ever come,
06:36you will be fine on your own,
06:38if you just remember who you are.
06:41But that's just it, dear heart.
06:43I feel as though I have no idea who I am.
06:46You are Anastasia.
06:48Yes, but who exactly is that?
06:51My memories are faded and so confusing.
06:54The memories are still there, my dear.
06:57They will show themselves clearly to you when your heart is ready.
07:01You must learn to listen to the voice inside you
07:04that knows who you truly are.
07:06But it is so difficult to trust that voice.
07:10To truly learn what lies within you,
07:12sometimes you must leave all that is familiar behind you.
07:18The secret police!
07:30Come along, I'm coming along.
07:33I hear that, master. Voices. What's that?
07:36That's gotta be, gotta be, hear me? Gotta be, gotta, gotta be...
07:40Right.
07:49Not me, not me. Oops, sorry.
07:52Got carried away.
07:53Open, in the name of the checker.
07:56Yeah, the checker. This is no neighborhood watch.
07:59This is no welcome wagon. This is no pizza man.
08:02This is no...
08:04Right.
08:07They found us. But it was too late.
08:09They found us.
08:10They found us.
08:11They found us.
08:12They found us.
08:13They found us.
08:14They found us.
08:15They found us.
08:16They found us.
08:17What do we do? What do we do?
08:19Gone is he.
08:20What can I do? I'm just a cello.
08:22What can any of us instruments do?
08:29I'm scared, Anastasia.
08:31Me too.
08:37Be still and listen, Anastasia.
08:40You will know what to do.
08:47Come on!
09:17Get them, you nincompoops.
09:19Get them all.
09:21Yeah, what he said, you nincompoops.
09:26Right, I'm the nincompoop.
09:28I'm coming to get you.
09:48Was that awesome or what?
09:51I got snow in my strings.
09:53Like insidious frost that invades all our lives.
10:01Poil them, I knew we would.
10:03Excellent, Anastasia.
10:10Good escape.
10:11Good escape.
10:17Where are we?
10:18What does the secret police want with us?
10:21Not us, Anastasia.
10:25What do I have that could possibly be of any use to the bad Cheka?
10:29All I have is all of you.
10:31Never mind that now.
10:33The point is, we cannot ever go back.
10:35Never go back?
10:38Which means only that you must go forward.
10:43Come, time is hastening.
10:59How did you fool all my eyes?
11:01Why not try getting your peek-a-weezy head off my foe?
11:04Oh, that's picky.
11:06You vex me, squeeze toy.
11:08Deal with it, bubble-bottom.
11:12Quiet, both of you.
11:13We're traveling incognito, so keep your voices down from now on.
11:17Sorry.
11:18That is better.
11:20Is incognito a new word for traveling illegally without a ticket?
11:26What's troubling you, DS?
11:30I'll never see my room again.
11:32My home.
11:33My home.
11:35It's the only place I've ever known.
11:37There, there. It's not as bad as it seems.
11:40What has happened, Mother Harp?
11:42Where are we going?
11:45What has become of us?
11:55Don't cry, for pity's sake.
11:58Please, don't cry.
12:00That's it, I'm coming out.
12:02Except that I'm stuck.
12:05Uh, excuse me.
12:06A little help out there?
12:07Of course.
12:08Wait.
12:09Who are you?
12:10I?
12:11I am General Vladimir Veselianov-Aikonovich, at your service.
12:17Probably should wait until I'm outside the trunk to stand and salute.
12:22I remember an Aikonovich.
12:24Nice man, but a bit untrustworthy as a soldier.
12:27This could be the man.
12:28He seems perfectly harmless to me.
12:33Ah!
12:35General!
12:36In the dreaded steamer trunk army?
12:39In the Tsar's imperial forces, if you must know.
12:42Long since...
12:47...retired.
12:48I see.
12:50Well, General, now that you're free, you may go about your business.
12:53Protecting Mother Russia from revolutionary luggage.
13:02You have the wit of a young Queen Alexandra.
13:05And yet, I beg your pardon?
13:08Forgive me.
13:09Have we met before?
13:11You seem so familiar.
13:13I...
13:14That is impossible.
13:16Are you so certain?
13:17Perhaps at the Tsar's ball, or at one of his former dinners.
13:24I beg your pardon.
13:25I did not mean to offend Miss...
13:28Anastasia.
13:30What?
13:31You're good.
13:32You're good.
13:33What are you saying?
13:35You even happen to look a little like she would have looked...
13:38...if she were still...
13:39...about.
13:40Who would have looked like me?
13:43Crafty.
13:45Good.
13:46I like that.
13:47I suppose you don't know there was a Princess Anastasia Nikolayevna Romanov.
13:52The Tsar's youngest daughter, long since prisoner of war.
13:55Well, I...
13:56And I suppose you're further unaware that ten million pounds sterling...
14:00...the entire Romanov fortune...
14:02...lie in a bank in Copenhagen, awaiting her return...
14:05...if rumors prove true that she is alive.
14:08Fortune?
14:09No, I...
14:10Ten million?
14:11I thought more.
14:12And I suppose you are blissfully ignorant of the fact that...
14:15...a veritable army of young girls have stepped forward...
14:18...attempting to claim the boodle.
14:20And none have managed to pass themselves off as a Princess.
14:23You claim to know nothing of this?
14:25I know nothing of this, sir.
14:27Hmm.
14:28I see.
14:29Well, you have the wit to be the Princess.
14:32None of the regal bearing, of course.
14:34I beg your pardon.
14:35But with my help, guidance and expertise...
14:38...I just might be able to pass you off as Anastasia.
14:41But I am Anastasia.
14:43Yes.
14:44You keep on telling yourself that.
14:47What a major loser.
14:49He's shifty.
14:50He is rude.
14:52I like that name.
14:57Listen to me.
14:58Listen to me.
14:59You want to know who you are?
15:01Yes.
15:02Oh, yes, very much.
15:03Then here's the deal, Princess.
15:05I take you to Copenhagen...
15:07...put you up in a nice hotel...
15:08...take your meals, clothes, everything...
15:10...and train you in the ways of women.
15:12You convince everyone you're the real Anastasia...
15:14...and we split the Roman on fortune.
15:16And, to show you what a generous guy I am...
15:19...I'll only take sixty percent.
15:21Ten percent.
15:22Fifty.
15:23Fifty.
15:24Come on, it's a spec deal.
15:25Forty percent.
15:26Let's split the difference twenty percent.
15:28Deal.
15:29Hey.
15:30Hold up.
15:32What the...
15:33I...
15:34...low my voice.
15:35It's just a little talent I have.
15:38Is there nothing of your negotiating skills?
15:41Must just hope that you're as adept at impersonating a princess.
15:46So, why is a former general of the Tsar's army...
15:49...hiding in a steamer trunk on a train?
15:52Why is a former princess traveling alone on a train?
15:55And, obviously, in hiding.
15:57If only those were questions I could answer.
15:59Well, as it happens, I have been looking for the princess Anastasia.
16:02As it happens, so have I.
16:05What a happy coincidence.
16:07Perhaps we've found her.
16:12Tickets?
16:13The conductor.
16:14Where is your ticket?
16:15I haven't got one.
16:16Where's yours?
16:17Oh, for pity's sake.
16:19Tickets?
16:20What are you doing?
16:22Come on, jump.
16:23It's the only way.
16:24My instruments!
16:25Your what?
16:26My instruments!
16:27I never travel anywhere without them.
16:29But just how many instruments are we talking about here?
16:31Tickets?
16:32No way.
16:33Uh-uh.
16:34Not doing it.
16:37You know, some girls just carry a lucky charm bracelet around with them wherever they go.
16:42Our first step will be to fool the gaggle of Russian emigres, dukes, counts...
16:46...and everyone else under the sun who flock to Copenhagen...
16:49...hoping for a return of the Romanovs.
16:52Ha! They want a princess?
16:54We'll give them a princess.
16:56They shouldn't be too difficult to fool.
16:58It's Grandmama.
17:00The Dowager Empress to you.
17:02That'll be the top nut.
17:03She's a stone, that one.
17:05Move the social circles here with a fist of iron.
17:08We have to convince her.
17:09All else is lost.
17:11Dowager Empress.
17:13I remember when she came to my birthday party.
17:16Yeah, yeah, yeah, kid.
17:18That's a good angle.
17:19Keep that.
17:20That's no angle, Iconovitch.
17:22I am the princess.
17:23You're starting to bring it all back for me.
17:26Call me Vladimir.
17:29All right.
17:30Vladimir.
17:34These blasted instruments.
17:36Why must you carry them with you wherever you go?
17:38They were given to me by my parents.
17:40It's all I have left of them.
17:44Careful, young man, or I'll have you fired.
17:47Come on, then.
17:48There'll be a healthy tip in it for you.
17:51You would have been better off if your parents had left you something useful.
17:54Like stock certificates, gold, jewelry.
17:57A couple of Fabergé eggs.
18:01Now you just try and get some sleep or something.
18:03We'll begin your lessons this evening.
18:05Vladimir, thank you.
18:09Copenhagen!
18:11Happy days are here again.
18:13I've wanted to come here for the quietest time.
18:20You're welcome.
18:29I love this city.
18:31It's so beautiful.
18:33And it's so good not to be frozen.
18:35And it's so good not to be frozen.
18:37Children, please.
18:40Who's hungry?
18:41You first.
18:43Now, children, behave.
18:45You are right.
18:46Perhaps we should starve.
18:48Hello, room service?
18:50That's not what I thought.
18:51Don't forget the meatwurst.
18:52I'll miss these.
18:54We want some caviar.
18:55Not that orange stuff.
18:56The real expensive red kind.
18:58On little toasty wedges.
19:00Yum.
19:02Moderation.
19:03Moderation.
19:04Moderation, everyone.
19:05And we'll have some smoked salmon.
19:07Braised duck.
19:08Oh, and how many kinds of blini do you have?
19:11Vodka.
19:12You're too young.
19:13And don't forget the borscht.
19:15And don't forget the borscht.
19:17Anastasia, you want anything?
19:34I'm hungry.
19:35I'm hungry.
19:36I'm hungry.
19:37I'm hungry.
19:38I'm hungry.
19:39I'm hungry.
19:40I'm hungry.
19:41I'm hungry.
19:42I'm hungry.
19:43I'm hungry.
19:44I'm hungry.
19:45I'm hungry.
19:46I'm hungry.
19:47I'm hungry.
19:48I'm hungry.
19:49I'm hungry.
19:50I'm hungry.
19:51I'm hungry.
19:52I'm hungry.
19:53I'm hungry.
19:54I'm hungry.
19:55I'm hungry.
19:56I'm hungry.
19:57I'm hungry.
19:58I'm hungry.
19:59I'm hungry.
20:00I'm hungry.
20:01I'm hungry.
20:03Oh, my.
20:05You can say that again.
20:06You eat more than the Russian army.
20:08And I should know.
20:09I can explain.
20:10Well, actually, I can't explain.
20:13No need.
20:14I've been hungry before.
20:16After the revolution, I had nothing.
20:18Nothing.
20:19But that was then, and this is now.
20:22And right now, you are going to learn to become a princess.
20:25The very first thing you must learn is how to hold your head.
20:28I intend to hold it and how to pull it.
20:30Yes, quite funny.
20:32But becoming a princess takes more than a clever way with a punchline.
20:39Posture straight, gut in a bit, chest out a bit.
20:42Now grin a bit, stick out that noble chin a bit.
20:45Now that's a bit too far.
20:47Courtesy thus to duchesses and dukes and dukes,
20:50as much as is expected of the lady that you are.
20:55Call the royals who reign above you, ladieship and lord,
20:58they'll hug you, but don't speak till they address you first.
21:02When you're called, your royal highness,
21:04stand up straight and show no shyness,
21:06and they may ignore you to rehearse.
21:09Now you.
21:10Stomach out, chest in and out.
21:13Now grin and bow down low.
21:17And if I'm feeling shy, speak first, then draw.
21:21My dear, we've got a million miles to go.
21:24Oh, no.
21:25Though she drives me slowly crazy.
21:29Oh, he's such a bore.
21:32You are happy, sweetie, baby,
21:36cause I like her more and more.
21:44What an awful lot to know.
21:46But you won't know all you want to know.
21:48As frankly for me, not to know would mean a certain far.
21:52But you're very loyal, straight to do.
21:54I admit, I just can't wait to be a princess after all.
22:07What are you doing?
22:08What am I doing?
22:09What are we...
22:10What are we...
22:12Yes, quite.
22:13I think you'll do just fine.
22:18What?
22:19No.
22:20No.
22:22Remember the money.
22:32Just another desperate attempt to get into Rome in our fortune.
22:35We've seen it all before.
22:37Of course, she's not the princess.
22:42But we haven't seen her yet.
22:44Irrelevant.
22:46The old Duke is blowing more air than you, dear.
22:49Pompous windbag never could stand the man.
22:51Let's just see if I can provide some moral support.
22:57Now, when we count you to the Duke, allow him to...
23:00Take my hand and kiss it, dear.
23:02If you like him high, but not as high as a queen, I know.
23:05What if they don't believe you?
23:07But they will.
23:09Do you believe I'm a princess?
23:13What's the matter with you?
23:14You look great.
23:15You look like... like a million pounds stone.
23:30Come, foolish girl.
23:36My friends, I'm glad you could all be here to welcome our very special guest.
23:41She's been through unspeakable hardships and perils.
23:44Not only escaping from our lost Russia,
23:47but surviving on her own all these intervening years.
23:51But now I entreat you to welcome to Copenhagen
23:54the Princess Anastasia Nikolayevna,
23:57last surviving heir of the Romanov.
24:04And of the Romanov fortune.
24:14I... I wish to thank you all for being here.
24:17Especially you, dear Brzezinski, for your charming hospitality.
24:21Don't try to curry favor with me, imposter.
24:30Any street urchin can be dressed up to look fancy
24:34and taught a lot of pretty words in ancient history.
24:38I had hoped for better of you, my comrades,
24:42but I should have known you were not above such slummery.
24:46This girl is a sham.
24:48Your Excellency, you haven't even given her a chance.
24:59Oh, dear Tuba, what am I to do?
25:01Stand firm, Anastasia. Remember who you are.
25:09I am Princess Anastasia Nikolayevna, Your Excellency,
25:13whether you choose to acknowledge that fact or not.
25:19And may I candidly observe, Your Excellency,
25:22that you bear the same ill-mannered disposition today
25:25that you did at my fifth birthday party in the Imperial Castle,
25:28when you refused to participate in my candle lighting ceremony
25:31and instead snuck off to the servants' quarters
25:33in order to drink half the case of my father's best vodka.
25:44I... I was...
25:46Anybody could have known about that.
25:48I mean... No, it isn't true.
25:50I mean this all to the devil with you all.
26:08Your Majesty.
26:21I can almost smell that money now.
26:28Anastasia is strong.
26:30She has royalty in her blood, my dear.
26:33So fantastically great.
26:35Yes, so surely we can expect catastrophe at any moment.
26:40She's like a fairytale princess.
26:42If only there were a prince.
26:47A prince?
26:49Look!
26:56Oh, dear, am I late again?
26:59It's become something of a chronic problem.
27:02Where is my royal assistant, Gupinok?
27:05Is Gupinok Gupinok again?
27:08Is Birdie want a soda cracker? Yum-yum!
27:29Who's he?
27:30Prince Paul, friend to the birds.
27:37Princess Anastasia Nikolayevna.
27:40I have heard so much about you.
27:42You are more beautiful now than I could ever have imagined.
27:46Your Highness.
27:53Prince Paul.
27:55I seem to recall him although it's been so many years.
27:59He's the one ray of sunshine in her otherwise hopeless existence.
28:03He's certainly romantic, isn't he?
28:05Too perfect to be believed.
28:07What a wuss!
28:12I forgot to curtsy, Your Highness.
28:15Yes, but you remembered to bring my heart.
28:18Lucky you.
28:19Indeed, it has been lost for so long.
28:23Right.
28:24Prince, princess, princess, prince.
28:26Now that we're all through with the introductions,
28:28it's time to mop up here and cash in the little lady's inheritance.
28:31Of course, Vladimir Vassilionov.
28:34But that decision is not mine to make, nor is it yours.
28:37Of course, the Dowager Empress.
28:40Of course.
28:41But neither of you need to worry.
28:43I'll gladly give you an introduction to Grandmama,
28:45along with my highest recommendation.
28:48Grandmama.
29:18Grandmama.
29:48Grandmama.
30:18Grandmama.
30:48Is this going to work, Grandmama?
30:58Can you really get the old Dowager Empress to agree to meet with the lost princess?
31:02Or is this going to be another public relations disaster like last time?
31:06He!
31:07Right.
31:08You've been with him day and night for a week.
31:09And what would you have me do?
31:11I'm the princess.
31:12He's the prince.
31:13Isn't this the way you wanted it?
31:14Yes.
31:15I mean, no.
31:16I mean, I don't know what I mean.
31:19But what can you see about it?
31:21Oil slick.
31:23This General Ikonovich is becoming a major pain.
31:26It's time we do something about him.
31:37You're just, just jealous.
31:42Jealous?
31:43Me?
31:44Of him?
31:45Ha!
31:48Ha!
32:01Don't cry, Duchamoy.
32:03Don't cry.
32:04Nothing I do seems to please him.
32:06He doesn't care for me.
32:08Only for the money he thinks I might make for him.
32:11You have to be more like Prince Paul.
32:13Gentle, brave, and kind.
32:16Sometimes, just like you, there's more to a man's heart than what appears on the surface.
32:21You need to give it time.
32:23I know Prince Paul's heart.
32:25He's the one getting me an audience with the Dowager Empress.
32:27He's the one who truly cares about me.
32:30The only one I trust.
32:32Silly, shallow girl.
32:34Ah!
32:35What do I care?
32:39Something I can do for you, gentlemen?
33:07The General should be here.
33:09I can't face the Empress without him.
33:11Of course you can.
33:12You don't need Aikonovitch.
33:14After all, he's not the Princess.
33:16You are.
33:17Yes, but he didn't come back to the hotel last night.
33:20Probably met up with some old friends.
33:22No, it's not like him.
33:24I'll be there.
33:25You'll be perfect.
33:27Trust me.
33:43Enter.
33:46I'll just pop in to introduce you.
33:48Then, it's your big moment.
33:53I'm so scared.
33:55Here, you are Princess Anastasia Nikolayevna Romanov,
33:59youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II.
34:02You're right, sir.
34:05You're on.
34:09Come closer, child.
34:11Well, you are very pretty.
34:22After all these years, you've hardly changed.
34:26Now it all comes back to me.
34:31Fair enough.
34:32I have not given you leave to be so familiar.
34:36Forgive me, Grandmama.
34:37I...
34:38How dare you address me like that?
34:40Impudent, presumptuous.
34:42Where did Aikonovitch find you?
34:44In a tavern?
34:45On the street?
34:46In the gutter?
34:48Who dressed you up?
34:49Gave you words to parrot?
34:51And dared to parade you in front of me as my granddaughter?
34:55Come, child.
34:56Have you no pat answer already wit?
34:59My son, the Tsar, and his entire family perished during the revolution.
35:05There has only been a whisper that Anastasia survived.
35:09The memories that you dishonor with this charade are a great personal tragedy.
35:14Forgive me, Your Highness.
35:15If I had lost sight of the fact, would you consider that tragedy more yours than mine?
35:20I know that you consider it an opportunity to collect a sizable inheritance.
35:25I don't care about the money.
35:27But you're aware of it.
35:28It's not why I've come.
35:30I'll give the money away.
35:31Yes, but unfortunately, you cannot give it away until you have it.
35:35And you cannot have it without my approval.
35:37So we'll never know.
35:39You cannot be so heartless.
35:42My heart has been broken in pieces.
35:44The pieces carried away by a trail of charlatans exactly like yourself.
35:49If I am heartless, you are blameless only in that you have arrived too late to take any more of my heart from me.
35:58Why have you come if not for the money?
36:01So that I could be in a room with you again and feel what I felt when I was just a small little girl.
36:07To see myself in your eyes and be reminded once and for all who I truly am.
36:14I need you.
36:15I need you to get in.
36:18You are a very talented actress, mademoiselle.
36:22My compliments to your employer.
36:26But the Romanovs are dead.
36:28No matter what you say, what you do, or how you look, I will never believe otherwise.
36:36As a child, I cherished your visits to our family.
36:39As any child looks forward to a special treat or a new toy.
36:43Now I see that you are nothing but a scared old woman.
36:47You won't hear me because your heart is closed so tightly that you can't feel.
36:56Oh dear.
36:57That didn't go at all well, did it?
36:59Do not make light of it, Paul.
37:01This is not easy for me either.
37:04Though the winter grows bitter cold
37:08And bright days are done
37:12There's a season we'll soon behold
37:16When we'll all laugh in the sun
37:20Though we danced and sang through the night
37:24Now those lights are none
37:28Soon there'll come a new morning light
37:32We'll sing and dance in the sun
37:36Though the fates have torn us apart
37:40And we don't know how or when
37:44With the dawn I know in my heart
37:48We'll be together again
37:54I've known you a life and a day
37:59But we've just begun
38:03Come with me, I'll show you the way
38:07We'll soon live free in the sun
38:11We'll soon live free
38:17In the sun
38:26Anastasia, it is you.
38:29Is there something else going on now?
38:31I'm coming back.
38:37I bet not even hope.
38:39It's her.
38:41It really, really her.
38:44Yes, it is.
38:47And we two can finally be married.
38:49How's it coming?
38:50Married?
38:51Married.
38:52They were engaged when you were two years old.
38:55Though I can guess you don't remember.
39:02I suppose love conquers everything.
39:05Wouldn't you say, darling?
39:12Married?
39:13Are you crazy?
39:15Well, he asked.
39:16That doesn't mean you have to say yes.
39:18What do you know about him except that he's a prince?
39:20What more do I need to know?
39:21He's a prince.
39:22I'm a princess.
39:23You've taken this whole princess thing too far.
39:25I didn't hear any objections when I was winning you my inheritance.
39:29It's not about the inheritance.
39:31Oh, no?
39:32Since when?
39:33I don't have to take this from you.
39:35I've been completely honorable and up front with you from the beginning.
39:38Now you start acting all high and mighty.
39:40Just remember I was the one who found you in that baggage car.
39:43Maybe you should have just left me there.
39:45I'm beginning to wish I had.
39:47Don't play the martyr with me, Vladimir Vassilionov.
39:50In spite of your bandages, you've never done anything for anyone but yourself.
39:54Ungrateful girl.
39:55Heartless mercenary.
39:57Who does he think he is?
39:59I'm a princess.
40:01Anastasia, it's not like you to speak this way.
40:04She's royalty now.
40:06Yes, and I'm having dinner with the prince.
40:09This will all excuse me.
40:11Oh, dear.
40:13We've created a monster.
40:15Created a monster.
40:17Speaking of monsters, where's Alexis?
40:27Room service is nice, and I like going right to the source.
40:46They are here! The princess and the prince! Hurry, hurry!
40:57Oh, what's she doing with that royal pain?
41:00And it has how many rooms, did you say?
41:03Twelve hundred and fifty.
41:05That's not including the stable quarters with two hundred separate rooms for each of your new white Arabian stallions.
41:12Oh, you all sound so... charming.
41:16Well, after all you've been through, my darling, you deserve no less.
41:23Oh, Paul, I don't remember you being this generous and kind as a child.
41:27Well, people change, your highness.
41:30People change.
41:37Do not move. Do not think to move.
41:40No, of course not. Here, take my wallet. It's yours.
41:43We want the girl.
41:47Paul?
41:48Don't rip this, Anastasia. Occupational hazard.
41:51I'll come and rescue you when the moment is right.
41:56Oh, yes, you'll rescue me.
41:59Paul? Paul?
42:01What's the matter, baby?
42:03Paul!
42:05Help me!
42:07Hang on, Anastasia! I'm coming!
42:11Paul! Paul! Paul! Paul!
42:14I'm coming, Anastasia!
42:20Be right with you!
42:37Ouch! Watch the potholes!
42:41I quit!
42:46What are you going to do with me? Do you know who I am?
42:49Who? Who? I know this one! I know this one!
42:52Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!
42:54Right?
43:01Paul! Make them let me go!
43:03Paul? Paul?
43:06Do you see any Paul here?
43:11That's a good one, Chief. A good one!
43:17Sorry, no Prince Paul here.
43:20But... but you...
43:22Are a colonel in the Cheka.
43:24An imposter. A fake prince.
43:27The real Prince Paul was taken care of years ago in anticipation of this very day.
43:32Isn't it ironic?
43:34No one, not even the Dowager Empress, would believe you were the real princess
43:39and I got them all to believe I am the real prince!
43:51If you want the picture of a charming prince, I take the coat.
43:56But now you find me all the more alarming since I'm charming as a rattlesnake.
44:01My debonair and dazzling personality was like a dream.
44:06But now that you're awake, the harsh reality is things aren't always what they seem.
44:12Taken in by my dashing grin, you have failed to note the pointy teeth.
44:22I'm no fraud, but beneath this warm facade, I'm Prince Charmless underneath.
44:33Just look at what a perfect little royal pair we're gonna make.
44:38As everyone is absolutely unaware, we two are both completely fake.
44:44You've been grand, for the plots I plan.
44:49And my gratitude's profound and large.
44:54Now's the time for the world to know that I'm hardly timeless, illiquid, or marvelous.
45:04No, I'm Prince Charmless!
45:08And I'm in charge!
45:17I almost had you in Russia.
45:19Now I am finally caught up.
45:21And soon, Iconovitch will be in my grasp too.
45:24He won't come.
45:25Oh yes, he will come.
45:27For you.
45:29Can I use the heat of a chief? Can I? Can I? Can I?
45:33Right.
45:37This is not good. Definitely not good.
45:44She's been what?
45:46When? How?
45:48What about the police?
45:49What has happened to Anastasia?
45:51She's been kidnapped. That's...
45:53Well, give something. You are the police.
45:55After all, you're a harp.
45:59Not you. I'll call you back.
46:01Harps don't talk.
46:05But of course you can, dear man. So can I.
46:08Cuba?
46:10Do not forget me.
46:11The shock of losing two million pounds are hallucinating.
46:14Pardon me.
46:15Now, how are we going to get Anastasia back?
46:19Maybe I'll take a nice lie down.
46:21I must have been hit harder on the head last night than I thought.
46:27Look, I don't know where she is.
46:29I don't care where she is.
46:31And stop talking to me.
46:32You're instruments for crying out loud.
46:34What do you mean you don't care?
46:36I don't care. I don't care.
46:38What's wrong? Those strings clogging up your ears?
46:41Get that Prince Paul to help you.
46:43I'm sure he cares.
46:44I'm just in it for the money. That's all it's ever been.
46:47That's all?
46:49Absolutely. I'm no fool.
46:51She's a princess. I'm a nobody.
46:53She has Paul. What does she want me?
47:01Where have you been, young man?
47:03My God. Now the accordion's talking.
47:07Paul has Anastasia.
47:10What? Where? When? Before?
47:15Wait. Could you let me catch my breath for a second?
47:18I'm sorry.
47:23What do you mean?
47:25He's a prince.
47:26Wrong again, soldier boy. I followed the kidnappers.
47:29Paul's really an agent of the revolution.
47:31He's a prince.
47:32I've never trusted him.
47:34You and me both.
47:35I'm me.
47:36And now he's got Anastasia.
47:38And he also wants you.
47:40Well, he's going to get more than he bargained for.
47:42Me, you and the rest of you talking instrument things
47:45against the secret police boss of the revolution.
47:47Come on. All of you.
47:48We've got to save Anastasia.
47:50Wait. I thought you said you only cared about the money.
47:54Well, you said I didn't.
47:56Now let's go.
47:59So you mean to tell me you made me carry you all the way from Moscow to Copenhagen
48:03and the instruments can walk?
48:09Yes.
48:15All right. Everyone have a plan?
48:17Right.
48:19Correct.
48:20It's time for a little recital.
48:28What are you doing here?
48:30Stop that noise or I'll shoot.
48:32Noise. Noise!
48:34Why, you kin-eared idiot.
48:38Watch it. This guy has a hard head.
48:40And no appreciation for the arts.
48:43Shall we?
48:52I've got to get up those stairs.
48:54Think you can cover me?
48:55Absolutely.
48:56Yes, sir.
48:57Of course we can.
49:04Get them. Get them.
49:08Oh.
49:13Oh.
49:19That's the best you've got?
49:20Ha. Do something.
49:22Come on, you guys. They're just instruments.
49:29No ear for music. Poor soul.
49:33Thanks.
49:34Don't mention it.
49:39Oh.
49:43Anastasia. I found you.
49:45Oh, Vladimir Vakulianov, my general.
49:48I've been such a fool. I don't care about the money. Only you.
49:52I've been such a fool. I've loved you from the start.
49:56I've been so blind.
49:58You've hurt me.
49:59I love you.
50:00And I love you. I always have.
50:03How very touching.
50:05Because I have nothing but contempt for you both.
50:09I wanted to take you back to Russia alive, so you could be hanged in your homeland.
50:14But alas, there's no time for such sentimentality.
50:18You won't have Anastasia. You won't have her.
50:21And what do you think you can possibly do about it?
50:24This.
50:30Vladimir.
50:32Vladimir.
50:48Give me your hand, Vladimir. Give me your hand.
50:50I can't, my darling. I wish I could, but I...
50:55Vladimir.
51:02All right, everyone. Work together. Find something. I'll meet you in Graham Hall.
51:08He is coming.
51:23Is he?
51:24Not yet.
51:27Oh, it's Russia.
51:29Oh, it's Russia.
51:31Don't talk.
51:32I must. I must tell you.
51:35It was not the money.
51:37It was you.
51:38Don't call Vladimir.
51:40Don't go.
51:43What will I do without you?
51:44You will be her imperial highness.
51:49Anastasia.
51:50We must tell her.
51:51But that will mean...
51:52It is time.
51:54It's time.
51:56I'm going to lose him.
51:58I'm with him.
51:59My heart.
52:00You love him that much?
52:02I love him more than my own life.
52:04Then we can save him.
52:06For love that strong goes beyond love.
52:08Beyond death.
52:10Beyond everything.
52:11We can save him?
52:13How can that be?
52:14With faith and love.
52:16Nothing is impossible.
52:18Have you ever wondered who we were, Anastasia?
52:21I always thought you were my guardian angel.
52:24In a way, we are.
52:25But we're more than that.
52:26Don't tell her.
52:28You'll have to go if you tell her.
52:30Alexei, hush.
52:31We are your family, Anastasia.
52:33I was your mother, Alexandra.
52:37Your brother, Alexei.
52:39Your sister, Titania.
52:41And your father, Tsar Nicholas II.
52:44Last Tsar of all the Russia's.
52:46Why didn't you tell me before?
52:48If we did, we'd have to go...
52:51Onwards.
52:52That's the rule.
52:53You told me now.
52:55Now I will lose you all over again.
52:57And Vladimir too.
52:58No.
52:59Our going opens the way for the general's return.
53:03But you must sing to him.
53:05From your soul to his.
53:07Sing to him, my darling.
53:16I will be with you wherever you are.
53:22Distance can't keep us apart.
53:28I'll keep believing, no matter how far.
53:35You'll be with me in my heart.
53:41Though all seems lost, as night descends.
53:47I'll keep you safe from the cold.
53:53When morning comes and all the darkness ends.
53:59We'll be as one till we're old.
54:05We've been together a life and a day.
54:11I'd leave a new day to start.
54:18We'll make forever, we both know the way.
54:24You'll be with me in my heart.
54:30You'll be with me in my heart.
54:40You'll be with me in my heart.
54:46Goodbye, my dear.
54:47Always remember, you are a princess.
54:49And I always love you.
54:52We love you, Cosmos.
54:54You're the greatest, kid.
54:55Don't be afraid, my child.
54:57We shall always be with you.
55:05Marcia.
55:06Vladimir.
55:07I had the strangest dream.
55:08So did I, my darling.
55:09So did I.
55:11We shall always be with you.
55:14In your heart.
55:16And so, General Vladimir Vasilyanov-Aikonovich
55:20and her Imperial Highness,
55:22Princess Anastasia Nikolayevna Romanov
55:25lived happily ever after.
55:28And how many accordions do you know who can say that?
56:38THE END
