:53:00
because of what's going
to happen here tomorrow.
:53:07
I'm sorry about
your father's death, Andre.
:53:10
He was an old man.
:53:11
He couldn't live with the thought
of being driven away from Bald Hills.
:53:16
How are they taking it in Moscow?
:53:20
You know that Mary
has gone to your aunt's at Ryazan.
:53:23
It was Nicholas Rostov who got her
out of Bald Hills just in time.
:53:26
Nicholas?
:53:33
So Anatole Kuragine did not honor
Countess Rostov with his hand?
:53:38
He couldn't.
He was married already.
:53:42
Well, it was all very long ago.
I'm sure she's had time...
:53:44
to forget her disappointment.
:53:50
You remember one of
our old discussions about it?
:53:52
I said that a fallen woman
should be forgiven.
:53:55
But I didn't say I could forgive her,
and I can't.
:53:58
But you can't compare Natasha
to a fallen woman.
:54:02
What romantic dreams I had.
:54:06
You mean ask for her hand again?
Be magnanimous and so on.
:54:09
Yes, that would be very noble, but...
:54:17
I'm sorry.
:54:20
How are you, Andre?
You seem so strange, disturbed.
:54:24
The first thing you must learn
about a battle is that...
:54:26
on the night before it is fought,
the men who are to fight it...
:54:28
are likely to seem a little disturbed.
:54:30
No. It's more than that.
:54:33
Perhaps it is.
:54:40
I've been in many battles,
Pierre...
:54:44
but for the first time I feel
that I'm going to die tomorrow.
:54:46
Nonsense. Why?
:54:48
I just feel it.
:54:51
Why are you really here, Pierre?
:54:53
Why, when you hate
violence and war...
:54:55
did you decide to do this?
:54:59
I don't know.
