As promised, here is a translation of the last sequences in German (from Rome, Open City, Roberto Rossellini).
Hartmann Evening difficult?
SS: Not too much, but interesting. I have a man who has to speak before dawn and a priest who is praying for him. Speak.
H: And if you do not speak?
SS: ridiculous.
H: And if you do not speak?
SS: then it would mean that an Italian is worth as a German, would mean that there is no difference between the blood of a slave race and that of a master race! [Pause] And no reason for this war.
H: Twenty-five years ago command of firing squads in France. I was a young officer. I also thought, at that time, in a "race mistress "in Germany. But the French patriots died without speaking. We Germans simply refuse to realize that people want to be free.
SS: Are you drunk , Hartmann!
H: Yes, I'm drunk. I drunk every night to forget ... is useless. We can not help but kill, kill, kill! We littered with corpses, Europe, and from these graves stands an incredible hatred, hatred everywhere! The hatred is consuming us ... we are hopeless ...
SS: This is too much
H: all die ... without hope ...
SS: I forbid you to continue!
H: ... without hope ...
SS: Forget you are a German officer!
[Enter a German soldier]
SS: He talked about?
Soldier: No. We've never had to deal with someone like him, so far.
--------------------------
[Enter the German woman ( D)]
D: I told you it would not be easy.
SS: The priest, soon!
[The following is a dialogue in Italian. Manfredi dies. Log in Marina]
SS: him out! [Referring to the priest]
Stupid Italians.
[words missing]
Q: I told you it would not be easy.
[Sign orders asking the German soldier]
SS: Ah, yes, for the record ... "heart attack".
Soldier: And the girl?
SS: It 's a bargain lady [referring to the German woman] .
D: Leave her alone for a few days, and then ...
SS: Come dear, I need a drink strong.
Soldier: What name should I write? Manfredi or Ferraris?
SS: Neither. Episcopo, Giovanni Episcopo. We do not create more martyrs, have too many.
[She picks up the dress of the girl lying on the ground]
D: for the next time [could be used again].
Hartmann ... the master race ...
