:10:01
Second, you've kept alive in occupied
territory for a year and a half.
:10:05
And before the war, you were the
greatest mountain climber in the world.
:10:09
'' Keith Mallory, the human fly.''
:10:12
Come to the point, Roy.
:10:13
The point is that our Resistance
contacts on Navarone...
:10:17
...say there's only one spot on
the coast the Germans don't watch:
:10:20
The South Cliff.
It's 400 feet straight up...
:10:23
...and it can't be climbed
by man or beast.
:10:27
And that's where you come in.
:10:29
That was your idea too?
:10:31
That's right.
:10:33
I want you to get me and my team
over there and on top of that cliff.
:10:37
When you've done that, you can
take a richly deserved leave...{16049}{16098}...and a long-overdue promotion.
:10:44
I see.
:11:02
Can you do it?
:11:07
No.
:11:09
With all due respect,
I think the operation is insane.
:11:13
But that's not my business.
:11:15
My business is to climb
and I haven't climbed in five years.
:11:19
That's a long time.
:11:21
It's too Long for this cliff.
:11:23
And you're asking me
to do it at night.
:11:29
I wouldn't try it in broad daylight.
:11:32
I'll have a go myself, then.
I've climbed a bit.
:11:35
Don't be a fool. You'd get yourself
killed and your team along with you.
:11:40
-Then it's scrubbed?
-No, it's not scrubbed!
:11:43
It can't be.
:11:46
Not now.
:11:49
Mallory...
:11:52
...this is our last hope.
:11:54
The Germans won't expect
a team of saboteurs at this late date.
:11:59
Those 2,000 men on Kheros will
die next Wednesday morning...
