Ruler without crown (1957) dTV - BR - July 7, 2012.
Fast! Continue!
Because we drive with a royal carriage.
The Danes are not unhappier than others.
Is that enough for you? A souvenir of our journey, Baron.
You also get guilty if you just drive by.
You really ought to... Sorry?
Forget what I said!
A bell is rung.
Dr. Struensee from Altona! I'm glad!
His Excellency the Minister of State asks immediately and without difficulty...
All right! Many Thanks!
No. Please, doctor!
Continue!
Your patient is the king.
His health worries us.
There have been signs for some years...
a certain mental weakness.
I want to be open to you.
Say, His Majesty's health is incurable!
Certain forces here at the court are interested in it.
To regulate the succession to the throne in a different way.
You are a well-known specialist in mental illness.
The government wishes your report.
Excellence! May I point out:
It is not one of my abilities to be in courtly...
I know. The Danish secret service works satisfactorily.
You hear, you flirt with politics.
The Human Rights. Yes?
The Parisian words "freedom, equality, brotherhood".
Nice words! Good words!
Excellence!
This quack! This charlatan!
That's an insult.
More than pleased to see you, colleague.
Dr. Berger. The personal physician of the queen's widow Juliane.
I am very pleased. Struensee. The stepmother of the king.
The finding is obvious. Progressive dementia.
If I may allow myself a comment.
I prescribed henbane.
And Belladonna applied. And baths. What do you make of it?
In moderation, of course. Colleague!
I want to form my own opinion first.
Someone is knocking.
Sleep well?
Open it!
Please do not call!
Caroline Mathilde! Do not be afraid!
Who is he looking for? The Queen.
Why do not you open? Where is she?
It's me. Not there. For a long time.
Dissensions? Disagreements.
So open it!
Caroline Mathilde!
Go please!
I am very happy.
The queen has come.
He hallucinates.
Please water!
We do not need water, Your Highness.
We get it from the air.
It is so:
I have it in my hands now.
You feel it on your forehead now.
You may keep your eyes closed.
That's nice. Yes?
I'll take away everything that disturbs you:
The dream.
The fear.
The head is now light and free.
Very light and free.
You can now open your eyes again.
Who are you?
Her boyfriend.
I have no friends.
But! Me!
I'm not very happy.
Colleague! A bloodletting, if I may allow myself a suggestion.
Or opium and alum.
Let us alone, please!
I thought she had come back.
Hm.
Caroline Mathilde.
Do not think!
Sleep!
Why? Darn! I ask:
For what reason do you get a foreign doctor from Altona?
What an idea?
The health of the king is precious... Thank you dear!
I understand your maternal love.
I am not his mother. And I do not love him.
They snub servant of the crown.
In fact, Your Highness.
Struensee did not want to call me to investigate.
Your diagnosis is known, Doctor.
She endangers the throne.
The throne is secure. The hereditary prince is in good health.
His cheerful wisdom is a happy inheritance of the mother.
He is young, very young.
And the king is sick.
Very sick even. Unfortunately... Berger!
That's the way it is. The incapacitation of his majesty is necessary.
Maybe not. Dr. Struensee is a specialist.
His uninfluenced report...
"Unaffected"? ...Goldberg.
Your Majesty thinks Dr. Struensee is a man of your confidence.
He has the confidence of the government that I represent.
In favor of the reigning majesty.
It's not about favor, Royal Highness. It's about law.
Someone is knocking.
What is there?
The Hereditary Prince wishes to say good morning to Your Highness.
(French:) Good morning mum!
Do you dream anything else?
Otherwise? Yes.
The water.
I'm thirsty.
And you give me water.
Blue Water.
But I can not lift my hands.
I can not.
They are paralyzed.
And thirsty!
Always just thirsty!
Has she been gone long?
Who? The Queen.
Yes, long. Since when?
Since the night.
It was not a good night.
Aha! You will write to her.
They will ask her forgiveness.
She will come back.
I will help you if you allow me. Yes?
Do not Scare!
That hurts?
And the? No.
The? Yes.
I'm ill?
Majesty! They are at risk. Like all of us.
More or less everyone.
Nobody knows where the illness starts or where the health ends.
And sometimes the will comes from the disease.
The life and the idea.
Healthy people are often stupid, do not care about life.
No, Your Majesty! They are not ill.
You do not have to get sick if you do not want it.
That's the whole work. Mr. Baron Brandt!
We have to write a report now.
I would like to thank Dr. See Berger before I leave.
Do you want to leave?
Yes. Back to my patients. Not! Not today!
You have to stay here.
I've been doing so well since you arrived.
Do not leave me alone!
Please stay!
I want you to stay!
- You want to? - Yes. That's nice.
See, the king has a will!
I'm just afraid you do not know what you want.
You!
I want her. Me?
Yes. I'm not a completely harmless person.
I would rip open the windows everywhere in the castle.
What some might not get.
Maybe not you too. But I...
I would recommend things that scare you.
I do everything if you stay. "Everything"?
Yes. Hm.
Maybe you would really have to... What are you doing?
Nothing, Mr. Baron. I want the king to get well. Work heals.
And the king is not sick.
Majesty! A farmer is plowing. A doctor cured. A king rules.
Do you want that? Govern?
Yes. If you...
No. You are the king.
So yes? Yes.
Yes. Then we write the report now. First the letter.
Which letter? To the queen. Help me?
Yes of course. Good. Come!
Come!
Good morning, Christian! Holck?
Oh yes, Holck!
Paper and pen!
And a courier to Hirschholm.
Is this going to be a love letter?
Interesting! Madame will be delighted.
What do you allow yourself, Holck?
You are the new doctor, Mr Struensee.
I recommend that you pay your attention to the king.
He needs a powder.
The king dismisses Count Holck from his personal service.
New friends, I see.
I have a very good memory, sir.
Can you see it!
I never liked him.
What am I writing?
You write:
"Your love!"
"It's been a long time since you left me."
"I beg you, forget all the bitterness, -"
"- which I have prepared for you."
Do you have? Yes.
"If we meet again, it should be -"
"- as if we were seeing each other for the first time."
"As if only you and I were born."
Women laugh. Please sit still, Your Majesty!
"Please come back!"
"My heart is dark with sorrow and regret."
That's what a night watchman wrote.
"Love me and forgive me!"
Do not laugh!
Give me the letter!
No way.
Yes. That's your place.
Yes. This is the place of the king.
They will sit there.
And you will announce the laws there.
The place of the queen is there.
Is there no message yet? No letter? No messenger?
She'll come. Today, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
She will be back.
She will sit by your side, stand or lie down.
But you will rule.
Your ministers will be sitting here. You will have to listen.
They will believe the world is sinking.
Such people believe something new.
Christian from Denmark! King of God's grace! Listen?
You will be the first to earn this title.
Somewhere it says, "God will raise the low ones."
Help the low, the poor and the weak!
And you will help yourself.
Do not you want your people to love you? Does not it love me?
For what, Highness? But it cheers when it sees me.
Have not you been in the red box for a long time? Come!
May I ask you?
Do the people also cheer when you sit there?
They do that sometimes. Or?
It is not an idea now.
But do not you hear the screaming, the sighing and moaning?
You have heard it often enough.
Not once. Again and again.
Does it sound like jubilation from up there?
This ungrateful rabble wants to have meat on Sundays.
This lazy pack does not pay the taxpayers' money.
There!
Whip and knit!
In the name of the king.
A fire under the soles of the feet. Finished!
In your name, Your Highness!
Or on the bike.
Everything in your name!
Can you imagine the pain?
To be braided on the bike.
Do you think you can love her from there?
What should I do, Struensee?
No government feels strong enough to give it up.
A king by the grace of God should be able to do it.
The step out of this cellar.
Into the light of reason. In the world of joy.
Or if you want: The love.
A bell is rung. Yes love.
A car from Hirschholm, Your Majesty. "From Hirschholm"?
A car from Hirschholm!
Yes.
One should have become a court preacher.
At least the kings can not run away from the church.
She is not coming. Her majesty is heartbroken.
Her Majesty feels sick. Oh, right!
Highness!
Only mouth movements.
You will have a good trip.
"A travel"?
Where? After Hirschholm.
We bring the queen back.
The king!
See, Your Majesty!
The ladies in Hirschholm are very accommodating!
Struensee! Do not you want to talk to her alone?
Majesty! What did we discuss? Ask.
Ask. Advertise.
Advertise. To be patient.
Patience.
She knocks.
His Majesty, the King.
Excuse me, Madame!
We came... No, please! We were worried.
We heard about your illness.
We had an urgent desire, me and dr. Struensee ..
He is a doctor, Madame.
An excellent doctor.
He will help you. How he helped me.
The king has tried you for nothing.
The friends of the king are not my friends.
Majesty! You are the queen of Denmark. We would like to ask you, -
- to remember.
They came from England to this country.
Did you expect happiness in the angle?
A crown is bound to much. But also to renounce much.
You know that better than me.
Even King Christian is not a lucky child.
He deserves to be taken care of.
You know how he cares.
They want to declare him incapacitated.
They abandon him instead of staying by his side.
And to give him of your great power.
The country spoils over it. It is also your country.
Become his queen!
Help the king, Denmark and me too!
That's all.
That is much.
O yes! That is much.
Majesty! There is no need to worry.
The queen is ready to travel.
She will accompany you to Copenhagen.
Caroline Mathilde!
So what's going on?
Why do we stop?
Explain, Brandt!
I'm afraid: Riot, Your Majesty. "Revolt"?
Is nobody here?
What do you want, sir?
Information, my friend.
The king wants to know what happened here.
Are you the king?
May I help, Your Highness?
What happened?
The tax collectors... What about you?
They wanted the last cows, sheep and goats.
You have hidden the cattle. Say it already!
Yes. It was the last one.
For 148 souls, sir.
And...
The woman did not want to give my goat.
One of the soldiers killed the woman.
And?
I killed him.
That's how it started.
It started like that, Your Highness. But that's not the end.
The punitive expedition is coming now. In the name of the king.
Thirty riders or more burn the houses. In your name.
People come to jail or to torture.
In your name. Not in my name, Struensee.
Not in my name.
Nobody will dare if the king stays with you.
Nobody. Nobody!
What are you doing, madam?
Henri! Lodging for the majesties!
Riders come.
On the orders of Count Reventlow.
Captain Eriksen. Deposited to -
- Execution of the insurgents of the village.
Versa! General Reventlow...
Whose word is more valid than that of the King of Denmark?
Are not you tired, madam?
He's sleeping.
Yes. It was a bit busy today.
Not just for him.
I have not thanked you yet, madame.
They saved 148 souls today.
He moans. No!
I wanted...
He looks like a kid.
Innocent.
Do you see the wrinkles on the forehead and the shadows around the mouth?
Innocent shadows, madame.
He always loved you.
He just did not always know it.
When do you know that?
They make music.
Come, madame!
And now you, Struensee! Because it is our evening:
The Queen, mine and yours... Madame!
Majesty!
Lucky for three. The French comedy teaches:
One has to count on it at the end.
Or all.
Oh! Excuse me!
And so talkative.
You do not need to talk, Struensee.
You wrote everything.
You wrote the letter. Correct?
I hear every word.
It's getting late, Your Majesty.
Yes. But...
And you still need a lot of peace.
Yes.
Good night!
Good night, Your Highness! Madame!
Thank you for your presence, mother.
How heated you are, my dear.
And your kisses are burning.
Were you meant for me?
Respect for the queen, mother.
Thank you, sir.
Good night!
I am happy that you are practicing so much forbearance.
Please do not be afraid of me!
Thank you, Eyben! Thank you, Brandt!
I wish you a good night!
Good night, Christian! "Christian"!
Can you... forgive me one day?
To love me?
The king has promised.
Majesty! Urgent shops.
I did not call you. Take care of my orders!
I need your decision. Here!
Only this signature. We will go again.
Great God! No reason to call Heaven!
The armed force is enough to bring the peasants to their senses.
Orders to shoot!
Why are you staring at me? I'm not sick.
Bernstorff. Do you approve of the command?
They have recently made high-hearted decisions.
Because of whoever. Pardoned marauders and murderers.
For the supposed well-being of your people.
It answers with arrogance. Because of the freedom.
But countries are not ruled by the heart.
But with the law.
And if it has to be... with violence.
And scared.
What do you mean, Struensee?
He is just your doctor.
The doctor says: Powder and lead are not his medication.
Shooting is a bad recipe.
Are you... The doctor knows a better one.
Not me. The king has decided to open the granaries.
And the lifting of the fron.
The majesties will travel and announce the measures.
They have not been realized so far.
Rifles are superfluous where the king and queen appear.
To travel! With the queen?
Christian! They call for you. Come over!
What does the prince mean? He has watched the executions.
"Executions"?
My coat!
A human being is flogged.
Stop!
Stop.
Who is responsible for that? I, Your Majesty.
Murderers and rebels must be punished.
Count Bernstorff! I ask them:
Is the royal decree known to you about abolition -
- "Abolition" of the embarrassing questioning and the flogging?
Yes.
Count Reventlow! Are you aware of the royal decree?
But yes!
Count Bernstorff!
Count Reventlow!
Please consider yourself dismissed from the service of the crown!
He laughs.
God bless you... Your Majesty!
And the country.
What should we do now, Struensee?
Who should govern? You.
You.
You then have to be my minister.
Yes.
Rifle up!
We will have a nice trip. Certainly, Your Majesty!
Oh! Are not you Nils with the crooked cheek?
Yes. He's Nile's crooked cheek, Madame.
He used to get my ponies for me.
Drive carefully!
Farewell, Madame!
The roads are bad.
Her Majesty the Queen is used to better streets.
You're driving our luck, guys!
Majesty!
Struensee! Adieu, Struensee!
Come with me! Yes?
Come with me!
No, Your Majesty. Impossible! No program change.
It would only be half the fun without you. We wish it.
I have a meeting today. Count Brandt will represent you.
Your confidant... Help me, madame!
I ordered it. Ask him!
We ask you.
He says yes.
You command, Your Highness!
He says yes, Madame!
For God's sake! What happened?
The estate is burning. The people of Rantzau were there.
You speak of Rantzau. Who is this?
A terrible person!
Formerly general at court.
I was afraid of him as a child.
I then released him.
Is his influence constantly growing?
From day to day. Half the province is behind him.
I advise you not to continue with your Majesties.
Thanks for the warning! Happy Travel! Good evening, madame!
May I give you a rider?
No thanks! Thank you!
You have to turn back. We are in the area of Rantzau.
Good. Let's go! And you?
I want to look at the Lord. An experiment! It succeeds -
- maybe make a friend of an enemy.
The king will not leave you alone.
We accompany him. Yes.
After castle Rantzau!
Struensee!
The new minister. What do you bring me?
I ask for your Majesties' quarters.
The king?
Granted!
May I ask, Your Majesty?
Count Rantzau wishes to see you.
(Softly) Do not worry! You are the king. Here too.
Welcome to Rantzau Castle!
Not to say how happy I am!
Have not you been to Hofe for a long time, Count?
Why? - Because you forgot how to greet the king.
Excuse me, Your Majesty! I ask for leniency a thousand times.
We learned to be indulgent on the way in your county.
I hope the majesties do not leave this castle very soon.
You should live, Mr. Minister of State!
It does not mean that you will live long.
Do not worry about it!
The Struensees get fat with 5O. This is not my taste.
You should also be careful.
I'll tell you as a doctor and in vain.
Fat makes you calm.
The skinny ones are curious.
They are too easily trapped.
Snap! Already happened!
What do you want in my bear building?
The bear.
They are playing a dangerous game, Doctor.
They think?
Listen carefully, Count Rantzau!
You were a general. A very good general.
How many guys do you have?
1OO? 15O? 3OO? 5OO?
Maybe more.
Could not I have sent you a regiment?
Then it would have been over.
I only brought you the king.
Everyone knows he is a fool.
He is the king. He is ready to welcome you in all honor.
If you keep peace.
For the time being, I have taken the king for now.
In grace, that will turn out!
The trap is closed.
And the kings sit in it.
Until I get back my old office and dignity.
The most sacred royal couple does not leave my castle before!
You hear your voice throughout the house, Count.
Forgive me! I have a light sleep.
May we continue, Your Majesty?
Your suggestion is very interesting, dear Graf.
They get all offices and dignities back.
They return to Copenhagen in honor.
I'll let you arrest and hang there 2 days later.
We have come very close, Your Majesty.
I asked our host to come back to the court.
The spell is lifted.
He will wear uniform again, eat, ride, drink.
The treasury has a lot to make up for it.
He considers it peace.
And who gives me the guarantee that you will not be hung up?
The world is not on her head. Small, German doctor!
And Danish minister! Is your word still valid tomorrow?
Or am I hanged because I pacted with an upstart?
Your head is your thing.
Who guarantees me that my head... I!
I, Count Rantzau!
Royal Word is only one word.
You're a hell of a guy, doctor!
You have what it takes to really turn the world upside down.
He laughs.
Is the wrong what we do?
No.
Who loves is right.
Go now!
No! Do not go!
No more!
"Never"?
That is eternity.
I never imagined what eternity is.
And in a kiss...
You came in when I saw you for the first time.
Proud and cheeky.
I already knew...
What?
I would have fled from you if I had known.
I believe, to the end of the world.
Happiness is scary.
It is the 1st Report of the Commission for Land Reform.
The distribution of fields, meadows and forests takes place -
- according to the proposals of the Minister Struensee.
Are you married, Hans? No, Your Majesty.
Do not you have a girl? Anyone?
But. But?
We've been here for four weeks at Schloss Rantzau, Your Majesty.
Patience.
For the courier to Copenhagen.
We have as a supreme decree the repeal of the secret state act.
Good.
The execution of the ordinances is done by General von Rantzau.
Hey, Struensee!
A delegation of farmers is here. They want to say thanks to the king.
You look gorgeous. The Order!
They will turn heads to the ladies in Copenhagen.
When do you travel? Tomorrow?
Yes. The wigs will wobble again. But not the heads!
Let it be enough with the wigs!
The powerful one can afford generosity.
What about the farmers? You should wait shortly.
Majesty!
I'll ride out with her today, Struensee.
She rides well. Or? So brave!
It has changed a lot since we arrived at Rantzau.
Did you see her eyes?
And when she leaves. As if she's always dancing.
Did you know that she can sing?
I think she already loves me.
She will love me. Certainly, Struensee!
And I owe everything to you.
Only... you, Friedrich!
Do you want to call me "Christian"?
Please, Friedrich!
My friend!
I think I do not survive so much luck when you're with me.
And in the morning, when I'm alone again, I think:
It was just a dream.
And the day is long, too long, far too long.
When you are not here.
And the day does not go by. And I'm sick of jealousy.
Because you do not think of me because you think about Denmark.
In the past everything was frozen under my hands.
It was not so long ago.
Everything was cold, strange, far away.
Like myself!
And now...
It has become something independent in there.
I do not know how to say it.
There are now a thousand sensations that move me.
All good feelings.
Good as the love.
Good is the friendship.
He is my friend.
Have no fear! Have no fear!
Nothing will happen. Nothing should happen.
If he knew! It would be his end.
And yours and mine.
Someone is knocking.
Madame!
Christian? I let it hook.
The carriage should pick up the music, your clothes and your jewelry.
What is? You're cold?
Your hands are so cold. "Cold"?
Yes. Freezing!
We want to make fire.
She is cold, Friedrich.
You wonder that we call ourselves "you".
Friedrich and Christian.
He is my friend.
Where?
It's late, Your Majesty.
Oh! Majesty!
The air is so strange.
Christian!
I once had a little white dog.
It was my friend.
My only friend.
He bit me one day.
I shot him there.
Christian! Before bedtime -
- I do not like to hear such terrible stories.
Come over!
Forgive me, Friedrich!
I thought for a terrible moment:
You could take it from me.
Rantzau laughs. Bravo, Doctor!
They stood well.
And you seem to have forgotten nothing.
Exercise is good. Who knows when you need it?
I say, "What's in the way is put away."
Did you get that well?
I'm in good health.
Another who is in the way of blowing out the light of life -
- And even if it were such a puny light:
Does not that make you sick?
If you can not grab, you should not touch it.
But the little man up there makes it easy for you. He goes by himself.
Or you help a little bit. A real business.
You promoted me. I carry him.
Rantzau!
Your pistol is too loud.
I did not hear what you said.
Do not want to hear.
The king laughs.
Oh! How cute you are!
Hey!
What is? Hm?
You devil!
Hopsa! No papers today, Friedrich!
No files!
Nobody should have to work today.
I give you a day off. And me! There! Catch!
Oh! It holds on tight. Did it hurt you? You are hurt.
I have this since my birth. A birthmark?
Yes. My dad has one time in the same place. Hey!
Do not run away!
I want to give her to her.
Mathilde!
Here! Take her!
I stole it for you. Do you like her?
Yes, Christian. Thank you! Look! It has white paws.
Here! Take it!
I'm glad. Do you want to bring her to the Eyben?
They are really nice. Yes.
The Eyben is to judge a basket for her. A pillow. Yes!
He is happy.
He trusts you as before.
But what was nice, should not be ugly.
You will have a lot of time for Denmark now.
Happy Denmark!
We will see each other every day.
And think a lot.
And forget nothing.
Nothing.
We thank God the Lord.
He enlightened the king with his grace.
That our people may enjoy all blessings.
We see all around.
A better time has dawned in our country.
Better days have dawned for us all,
when we could ever experience it.
Denmark is happy.
We ask the Holy Trinity always to rule the king's house.
The queen, who is blessed body, -
- May a healthy child get.
We ask that the Lord help her in her difficult hour.
We include in our prayer the minister Struensee.
That God may continue to bless the ministries he has given to the throne,
the people, the whole country was called to perform.
Lord God! We praise you.
Amen.
Organ music.
His Majesty, King Christian, deigned, His Excellency, -
- Minister Dr. Struensee, to award the Mathilden-Orden.
This fool! A poor, weak...
cuckold fool.
Dangerous words, Royal Highness!
If you have no proof.
It's more dangerous to keep silent when you know as much as you do.
Probably white.
They have few friends at the farm, Count Rantzau. Pity!
Times could change.
Look at this! Mr. Land. Decrepit and useless. All over. Tired?
Is that a miracle? For months on land, down the country.
You ask too much of you and the others.
Man needs some sleep at least every eight days.
Denmark has slept long enough.
Everything is prepared, excellency.
Come! We mingle with the people.
Better not.
I have an old account with him.
I declare after decree of the king, the undeveloped possession -
- the gentlemen of Rednitz, Rosenkranz and Holck...
That's still my reason.
You are wrong, Count.
The new owners have to improve the ground on penalty.
And increase the fruit from year to year.
Disputes... Let's start it, Mr. Struensee!
You talk to the minister of the king!
Oh! Not with the minister of the queen?
A very hard-working minister. Everyone knows he is cheating on the king.
Hard business! Who passes on the chatter comes to court!
Are you all right?
The air is strong, right?
Healthy for you and our child.
Are you happy?
Very! Me too.
I never knew what luck was.
A man from Altona had to come first.
Yes.
They shot at Struensee!
There is nothing to understand.
Protocol!
Her Majesty's premature birth brought on by a fall runs -
- according to the circumstances, as expected.
Location of the child normal. Heart sounds clear.
Pulse of the woman sometimes slows down to 52.
A threat to the birth by the fall is unlikely.
According to Krongesetz, eyewitnesses take part in the delivery:
As a representative of the royal house:
Her Royal Highness, Queen Mother Juliane.
As a representative of the church, the court preacher Winter.
As a representative of the Minister General Count Rantzau.
You are afraid. Not?
Yes.
There is nothing to understand.
The queen moans.
Friedrich!
You heard that, Reverend.
And you, count? Where are they standing? Still on the wrong side?
One will see, Royal Highness.
Logging: Her Majesty called the name of the delivery...
A door is opened.
Yes?
We bring joyful news to Your Majesty. "Joyful"?
Her Majesty the Queen has recovered from a daughter.
I wish you that God's grace your majesty -
- may continue in the future.
I... thank you.
A cannon shoots.
They shoot salute! They shoot!
Mother and child are well, Your Majesty.
A healthy little daughter. 6.5 pounds heavy.
Of wonderful well-being! "Shapeliness"!
Except for a small, cute mark on the neck.
Left. Like a cat's claw.
No reason to worry, Your Majesty!
It would be a birthmark, carry the mother one.
Or a father's painting. But your majesty has none.
Are you going!
Please leave!
Salute is still being fired.
The mayors to me, the guilds and the guilds! Lieutenant!
Excellence! Are you not promoted yet?
Send General von Rantzau! At your command!
My girl!
We expected you with impatience. "We"?
The Queen. Send me the file!
I had to run when you came.
And the civilian appointments. where is the king?
I do not know. I am to ask you to the queen at once.
Is Madame well?
Struensee! Yes, Rantzau. They called me.
We have to keep our backs free now.
We have to act. Let the guards compete!
Expect more commands! I give you all powers.
Finally!
Friedrich!
They shot at you. Tell!
No! Do not tell me!
Oh! You are there.
I have been brave. The whole time.
You have to praise me.
You are brave.
Yes.
Where is Christian?
I do not know. I have not seen him for a long time. - Why?
He locked himself up.
Did not he see the child yet?
But you! You want to see it. Yes?
Leave us alone, dear Berta! It does not sleep yet.
Do you like it?
Good day, Christian!
You have not seen the child yet.
But now I see it yes.
They have made a long journey, Struensee. I am inattentive.
Dear Eyben! Are you there?
Please bring wine and fruits. I have to blame you, Eyben!
They let the cats into the room.
Excuse me, Your Majesty!
There are no cats here. But!
Four little cats.
Small claws.
You know her, Friedrich.
A pretty kid, madame.
As pretty as you.
It has the mother's eyes.
It has the mother's mouth.
And what does it have from the father? Christian!
It gives you everyone right, if you do that.
I wanted to organize things here and broke the order.
I wanted...
Yes... what did I want?
Make Denmark happy. And you.
(Softly:) And you.
You take too much action.
Grab the feather, Your Majesty!
Their name will be burned down on the adulterers like lightning.
To the friend who insults you. The woman who cheats on you.
And on the coupler Brandt. Sign? What?
The arrest warrant, Your Majesty. No! No no!
Denmark, Christian! The crown.
He took your people from you.
He took the woman from you.
He mocked the throne.
But he is my friend. Who else?
He is my friend.
And Denmark?
He made Denmark happy.
You too?
They did it.
Like mosquitoes in your hand.
The white dog.
He bit me. And I loved him.
He bit me. And I shot him. Shot!
He cries.
Struensee!
Only mouth movements.
We never had the courage to tell him.
But the child helped us.
Our child, Friedrich!
You're welcome! You will love it. Now that Christian finally knows everything.
It's good that he knows.
Rantzau!
Your sword, Dr. Struensee! What does that mean?
We want to make it painless. You're under arrest.
Of you? Not mine.
The king signed the arrest warrant.
His hand signed, not his mind.
You guessed it.
Where is the king's spirit? Here!
You rascal!
Let me pass! I want to be king.
We do not stop you, Struensee.
I have the command:
To bring your majesty to Hirschholm.
Christian!
I'm fine today.
No pain in the head.
Nothing!
Christian! Do not you hear me?
Madame!
And now you, Struensee.
Because it's our evening.
The Queen, mine and yours.
Oh!
They took it from me.
Forgive!
I held on to it, the child.
But I lost it.
Where, then?
Where?
Where, then?
Where?
Where is it?
Where?
They arrested me right after they arrived.
Did you speak the king?
What is a doctor?
A man who heals people.
Not true?
And if a person destroys people?
What is he then?
A murderer.
But the king is alive.
Yes. He lives.
He is dead than dead.
You made thousands of people happy.
Oh, Enevied! If someone tells you.
You could all people, all,
make you happy for a thousand or ten thousand years.
And he adds: A condition, dear friend.
A tiny condition.
Not very pleasant, but quite satisfiable.
You have to crush a human.
Torture a bit to death.
Tell me, could humanity be happy?
I destroyed two lives after all.
The High Court of Denmark has pronounced the verdict.
After the individual confessions of the guilty party.
"Caroline Mathilde, formerly Princess of England, -"
"- formerly Queen of Denmark, is to bring from life to death."
"By the hand of the executioner."
In view of the wishes of the envoy of His Majesty, -
- the King of England, the Danish Government decreed -
- the suspension of enforcement.
Under one condition:
You leave the country under the protection of an English frigate.
And the child? Stay with the mother.
And Struensee?
You can not be in doubt about that.
Gentlemen! It is my wish to die with him.
It be... No conditions!
Unless he leaves the country with me.
He feels the full severity of the law.
I remain.
The English Government does not tolerate:
The death of Your Highness by the hand of the executioner.
Bernstorff! Would you understand it?
If I left him to save me?
"Former Minister of State Dr. Friedrich Struensee -"
"- loses all dignities conferred upon him."
"His right hand and his head are cut off alive."
"His body is quartered and wheeled."
Baron Brandt is expelled from the country.
Your former Majesty wishes to die with you.
Unless...
"Unless..."
Unless you would get the queen to leave Denmark.
She would travel if she were with you.
If she would believe that she is in your company.
I ask for a lie, dr. Struensee.
To a good lie.
Thank you!
When?
Tomorrow morning at 3 o'clock.
Why here?
I preferred to spare you the public.
Me or you, Bernstorff?
I think the Danish people will not forget. Not so fast.
The memory of the people is short.
Friedrich?
You are free?
You put your head through.
The frigate is waiting. The officers are in Gala.
The sailors are parading.
Great salute for Mathilde Caroline, princess of England.
And a poor sinner, doctor from Altona, sneaks aboard.
As bourgeois contraband of the princess.
Who threw herself at this doctor's neck.
Eternal and eternal. And always and always.
Hold your heart tight!
Wherever the journey goes.
If you're with me!
Patience.
I'll be back soon. Are not you staying here?
There is a lot to do before such a long journey.
I still have so much to do this night.
But I'll be on our ship before you.
On our ship!
We will be free.
Completely free... Do not say goodbye now!
It's the last time we split up.
We do not want to count the hours anymore.
Not the days, not the nights.
Not the time.
Farewell!
Dr. Struensee?
Is he already there?
Where is he?
Salute is fired.
Her Majesty has gone on board.
The last salute for Her Majesty, formerly Queen of Denmark.
Salute is still being fired.
