Robin Hood; Prince of Thieves (1991)
by Pen Densham, John Watson. Transcript.
Early in the morning, a priest calls the citizens from the top of a minaret to come to church.
Show us how brave you are
He says you stole the bread
It's a lie, I caught him stealing ours
Cut off the infidels hand
They're not interested in the truth
Peter, you'll not life trough it
As you wish, cut the other one's hand off as well
I'm sorry. I'm sorry Robin. No no!
Puts his hand near the chopper
Retreats his hand and hits his guards. One of the them fall in the fire
This is for five years of hell!
Come on, Robin, for God's sake. Come on!
You can not safe those people, Christian, but you can safe me!
For pity's sake. Mine is the sentence of death
No Robin, he's a Moor, don't listen to him:
Set me free, I will show you a way out
If you do not, we are all dead men
For God's sake, Robin, they're coming!!
3 EXT./ STREETS OF JERUSALEM
You're fast with a sword my friend
Five years I've waited for the smell of free air, that makes a man fast.
An arrow hits Peter in the chest
Give this ring to my sister Marian. Swear you'll protect her for me
Tell Marian I died a free Englishman
Peter gets up and attacks the guards
Come my friend, make his sacrifice an act of honour. Come now.
Azeem and Robin run for the guards on horses
Why did you let me free, Christian?
Whatever blood is in your veins, no man deserves to die in there.
Some guards pass their hiding place
Farewell, my friend, God'll speed your way
Our way lies together. With the speed of Allah. You have saved my life. Christian. Now I'll stay with you, until I've saved yours. That's my vow.
Thanks, but I go to England. I relieve you of your obligation
You have no choice. I'm Azeem Edin Bashir Al Bachrim. You may call me Azeem
4 INT./ EXT./LOCKSLEY'S CASTLE, ENGLAND
Kind Sir, It's rumoured that you fought in King Richard's crusade with my beloved son, Robin. I fear you are returned home to desperate times. When dark forces plot against our absent king. I'm anxious for words of my son. Were you present at his capture near Jerusalem? Do you know the name of the potentate who holds him? Does he still bear me ill will? A little news, please sir. I would give all that I own for his release.
You should have waited. I'm sorry you were disturbed, master.
Duncan, it's alright. Let him go:
They have taken my Gwen.My daughter..
Men on horses, in masks. We tried to stop them, but:My son is dead. He's dead!
Master, stay. There's an evil moon tonight.
Never fear, Duncan. The good will overcome. Trust in that.
I'm sorry, my lord. I had no choice
Man on horse takes his mask of; it's the SHERRIF of Nottingham
The king will hear of this!
For God and King Richard!
Little boat approaches the British coast, Robin and Azeem and some others are in it. Robin kisses British ground.
Oh, thank you Lord. I'm home! I'm home!!!
You are strange Christian
Yes, but I'm free. And now I beg you to free yourself of your vow. Return with the boat.
I know how it feels to be so far from your home and family
Because I love them so much, I cannot dishonour them.
I'd thought you'd say that.
Azeem's attacked, but wins the struggle
No one controls my destiny. Especially not one who attacks with down wind and stinks of garlic.
Come, Azeem. Our fighting days are done. By nightfall, we'll celebrate with my father.
You'll understand of course, I had to try.
6 EXT./ ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE
Robin and Azeem are walking over a stone wall
Why must you walk at the back of me?
In you country, am I not the infidel? It's seem safer to appear as your slave, rather then your equal
For an infidel, you have uncommon clarity of thinking. And you'll tell me nothing of yourself. For instance your name; Azeem, what doe sit mean?
Great one? Really? Did you give yourself this name? It was a joke! Azeem the great one! I'm home! Look! Mistletoe. Many maids lost their resole to me thanks to this little plant.
In my country we talk to our women, we do not drug them with plants
What do you know of women?
Where I come from, Christian, there are women of such beauty. That they can poses a mans mind so, that they would be willing to die for her.
Wait. Was that why you were to be executed? Because of a woman?
That's it, isn't it? That's it!
Who was she? The Mullah's daughter? Another man's wife? What's her name?
Is there no sun in this cursed country? Which way is east?
Robin points Azeem to the East
I would know blindfolded, I'm five miles from home. Was she worth it?
7 EXT./ ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE - CLOSE TO SUNSET
Little boy is being chased by soldiers and dogs
You're dogsmeat, son, you know that?
Get down here, you now what you've done. Down!
You're not playing by the rules, boy! Deer don't climb trees. Perhaps he thinks he's a gay bird! Shall we teach him to fly?
Hold! I'm curious:what man or creature is so fearsome that it takes six men to attack it.
This is no affair of yours
Or are we treating the devil himself? A small boy. A truly dangerous animal
He killed one of the Sheriff of Nottingham's deer
We were starving! We needed the meat!
I advice you to move on, pilgrim, this is the Sheriff's land
Wrong, this is my land and my tree. So whatever's in it also belongs to me
Might I have the pleasure of your name, before I have you run through?
Well, well, Locksley. Welcome home! Kill him!
Azeem, it's time to redeem that vow!
Points his swords in Guy's neck
Now, sir. If you'd be so kind to give me your name, before I run you through:
Guy of Gisborne, the Sheriff's cousin. The little bastard was poaching deer
Poaching? Is it not a greater crime to starve a family?
I've seen enough blood spilled to last two lifetimes. Now get off my land! And tell Nottingham what happens to scum when they pick on small children!
And you! (tegen Azeem) you've travelled ten thousand miles to save my life and then leave me to be butchered?!
I fulfil my vow's when I choose!
And that does not include prayertimes or mealtimes or any time I'm outnumbered by six to one?
You whine like a mule. You're still alive!
Have no fear, come down boy. Is it true boy, did you kill a deer?
Interesting place this England!
8 INT./ SHERRIF'S PRIVATE CHAMBERS / NOTTINGHAM CASTLE
Guy enters the Sherrif private rooms by climbing some stairs. The Sherrif is in his room with a whore.
Hold on, sir! The Sheriff doesn't want to be disturbed!
Cousin. I trust you justify your intrusion with news of profound value?
I met a hooded man today who made me warn you not to harm his people
Who told you to cover up? His name?
The prodigal son returns! He's a whelp. This girl could vest him! Put it There!
Well, this whelp, has vested four of my men
Your men were probably drunk! But you survived, cousin!
I've barely survived. He has a companion, a dark skinned foreigner with a dark face of Islam and a Saracens sword
Yes yes, I'm sure it would take an army to match these roves
Locksley must have visited his manor and find the home fire still burning!
9 EXT./ INT./ RUINS OF LOCKSLEY'S CASTLE - NIGHT
Father?! Father?! Anyone here? Duncan? No:No!!
It's my father:Who's there, who's there?
An old man appears in the ruins of the castle
Master Robin, is that you?
Oh, praise thy, I thought that God had abandoned us
Why didn't you cut him down?
Never thought to hear your voice again:
I would have done it, if I could see.
Who did this to you, Duncan?
Guy, Guy of Gisborne:and the SHERIFF and his witch looking on
They said the Sheriff captured your father worshipping the devil. He has signed a confession before the bishop
Nottingham declared all of Locksley's land forfeited
Do you believe the charges?
Not even when they took my eyes
10 EXT./ IN FRONT OF LOCKSLEY'S CASTLE
Robin, Azeem and Duncan knealing around Locksley's grave.
He loved you 'till the end, young master. He never gave up hope of your return
He called the crusades a foolish quest, he said it was vanity to force other men to our religion.
You must (vluchten) now, head south to safety. Gisborne will surely seek revenge
To Azeem You should go home. My world is turned upside down here. And I can not ask you to come where I'm going.
Alone Christian, you'll only get yourself killed. Besides there's nothing left for me to go home to
I will not rest until my father's revenged. I swear it by my own blood!
11 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CELLAR
Mortianna? You called, madam? What do you see?
Locksley! Does he affect us?
He proceeds the Lionheart
If King Richard returns from the Crusades, that could prove a bit awkward. It will suffer the support of the barons. Soon?
But my plan, is it still intact?
I've seen our death. The painted man, he horrors my dreams, with strange foreign motifs
Kill him, kill them both!
Peter's home. It's nearly six years since we've left together. We'll find food and shelter here.
Tell the lady of the house that Robin of Locksley is at the door.
Is the child Marian at home then?
Maybe she is, maybe she isn't
The hospitality in this country is as warm as the weather
Leave your weapons. Just you
13 INT./ HALL/ DUBOIS CASTLE
14 EXT./ OUTSIDE DUBOIS CASTLE
Curse on Moors and Saracens. If not for their ungodly ways, Master Robin would never have left. What kind of name is Azeem? Irish? Cornish?
15 INT./ HALL/ DUBOIS CASTLE
You lie, Robin is dead. Step into the light
Well, then show yourself, child, for we knew each other well.
The years have:.been kind
Thank you. With the king away, we must guard us from villainous outlaws, who would kidnap a relative of his.
Surely you can see that I'm not one of those
Perhaps. Now, move yourself from his house.
I would my lady, but I've sworn to protect you.
Protect me? Robin of Locksley was nothing but a spoiled bully. And besides as you can see, we have enough protection.
You're truly courageous against an unarmed man.
(kort gevecht, Azeem probeert de deur in te beuken)
Point me towards danger, Azeem. I'm ready!
16 EXT./ DUBOIS CASTLE COURT YARD
His last thoughts were of you
I'm sorry, Marian. I'm sorry.
How do I know you didn't abandon him to save your own skin?
No one feels his loss more then I
Well, next time I go to London, I'll be sure to convey your condolences to my mother.
I would think, for your safety, that you would join her there
No, I have no interest in life at court. All that gossip and carrying favours
Hardly. These years have left us many in need. Well you and my brother were playing boy-hero Nottingham has plundered the shire.
I see you still have your lands
Because I give them no excuse to take them
As the kings cousin it's my station to look after these people until he's returned
Marian, Marian! My purpose to come here, was not to hurt you. I swore. I swore to your brother that I would protect you.
You can not replace my brother
I do not want to replace him. Marian, I've returned to my home to find it destroyed and my father murdered. And the only explanations for it are the ramblings (gebrabbel) of an old blind man.
All I remember of you is a spoilt bully who used to burn my hair as a child.
Please allow that years of war and prison may change a man.
Robin, whatever happened between you and your father, you mustn't believe...what they accused him of
How did you uneducated kind ever take Jerusalem?
It's Nottingham's soldiers
oming here? Is this your protection?
I've killed some of the Sheriff's men
I fear I've placed you in danger
I can take care of myself:just go! No that's my horse!
A truly magnificent animal, my lady
I said I've sworn to protect you
And I say no more boyish gestures
Stop them! They're stealing my horses!
Sheltering outlaws, Lady Marian?
They are thieves, you imbecile!
I hope they didn't steal you virtue as well
The crown for the man who brings me Locksley's head, my lady!!
18 EXT./ ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE
No, my horse carries two and yours is lame. We can not outrun them
Leave me, master Robin, I slow your escape
We can loose them in the forest
Sherwood Forrest is haunted, master
Either we take our chances with the ghosts or become ghosts ourselves
19 EXT./ AT THE EDGE OF SHERWOOD FOREST
Come on, damn you! There are only three of them
It's not the man we fear sir, it's the evil spirits
Robin of the Hood!! Son of a devil worshipper!! Your father died a coward, cursing your name and squealing like a stag pig!
You'll bring no justice to your father by dying today
There are your ghosts, Duncan; windchimes. A child's told put to good use.
You're scared easily, my painted Moor.
This forest has eyes, I swear it.
21 EXT./ KREEK AND WATERFALL/ SHERWOOD FOREST
In my dreams alone have I imagined such a place
Then imagine a way to cross it. There's hope!
After causing robin to fall in the river.
There was a rich man from Nottingham, who tried to cross the river
What a dope, he tripped over a rope. Now look at him shiver!
Well, this here is our river and each man that wishes to cross must pay a tax
I'll pay no tax, as you can see I have nothing. Not even my sword
Any man who travels with two servants and claims that he's got no bloody money, is even a fool or a liar.
John little, best man of the woods
Well, best man. You lead this rabble?
Yes I do mate. And if you want to travel through Sherwood Forrest, it's gonna cost you that gold medallion.
It's sacred to us to, mate. That there will feed us for a bloody month
You'll have to fight me for it
Be careful father, he won of twelve of the sheriff's men.
Is that so? I reckon I'm gonna enjoy this
Lost something? Thanks for the taxes!
Looks like the little rich boy is lost for words
Already, my old cocker. You want another good whacking? You should have one!
It seems like I've made it passed the gate, John Little. Or should I call you Little John?
Swimming time again, old chump!
Where is he? Do you see him?
It's a bloody shame. He was a brave lad:Help!!
I can't bloody swim! Help!
Good, now put your feet down
Well, Robin of Locksley, you've got balls of solid rock.
22 EXT./ CAMPFIRE/ SHERWOOD FOREST - NIGHT
That's Max, the miller's son, Harold Brownwell and that stumpy one there is David of Doncaster, but the lads all call him Bull.
No, Bull, save it, save it. Save it for the ladies
Give the man some meat. Now I made that myself
Is English hospitality changes so much in six years that a friend of mine is not welcome at this table.
That he is. But no more then you or I. And don't call me Sire
With regret I must decline. Allah forbids it
Why is it that so many of you are hiding
Well, we are all outlaws. We have prices on ours heads. Even that young lad there. The blasted sheriff, he says we owe him taxes.
Well, your ghosts will only keep the sheriffs man at base so long
Well, they have worked so far. Do you have a better idea?
You can always fight back
I reckon I must have cracked that noble our of yours. Well these are all good lads here. They have hearts of oath but they are farmers. It would be lambs to the laughter. They say the sheriff was raised by a witch.
She knows every man's thoughts, you can see her eyes fur and she flies.
That's a load of Cotswold (onzin), Wulf.
What does a rich son of a devil worshipper care about a bunch of outlaw pheasants:
My Lord was a kind and generous man. Who among you dare to believe:
My father was no devil worshipper. And I'll have words with any man who says otherwise. But he's right. I was a rich man's son. When I killed the sheriffs men, I became an outlaw like you.
That is Will Scarlet. Take no notice of him, he's full of piss and wind. Come on lads, drink up. Don't talk about so much bloody rubbish. This here is the best that we simple men can expect. Here we're safe. We are kings!
23 EXT./ SHERWOOD FORREST - MORNING
Too much meat, old friend?
No, no, rest yourself. What day is it, Duncan?
Do they still give alms to the poor at mass?
They do, these days the need for mercy is greater then ever.
24 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CATHEDRAL
We'll be searching thy blessing Lord, on all thy people, but most especially on ours noble Sheriff of Nottingham. Grand him the wisdom to guide and protect our glorious city, grand him also the strength to bring to justice the lawless men, who would threaten it's safety and prosperity and the judgement to punish them. In your name, amen.
25 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CATHEDRAL
Alms for a blind man, my lady? For I can not see your beauty: Hello
I do not wish to be seen with an outlaw
You prefer the company of Nottingham?
There's a price on your head
Is that all? I'll have to annoy the good sheriff more. Soon it'll be a thousand.
For a thousand I'll turn you in myself
Nottingham is mounting an army. He has every blacksmith in the county hold up in the castle making swords and armour.
I don't know. There's no limit to the man's ambitions. Go!
Quickly, go! Robin, do something for me:
26 INT./ BISHOP'S PRIVATE CHAMBERS/ NOTTINGHAM CATHEDRAL
These are my private chambers, my son. I have priests who would hear your confession. Ah! I see the boy I knew, in the man before me. Welcome home, Robin.
27 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CATHEDRAL
You shine like the sun, my lady. You have been meeting with Robin of Locksley. My cousin tells me he may have deprived you of some horses.
Yes, a most disagreeable experience
Yes, I know, and for inflicting that upon you form the walls by his own intestines
I would like to see that my lord
If you would bring your household within the city walls I could give your every need personal attention
Well, thank you Lord but I'd rather stay in my family's home, for now.
Well then perhaps, you do me the honour of accepting a small token of my undying devotion to your safety
My, King Richard would be deeply moved to hear from your concern for my welfare
I'm afraid the King has many enemies, both abroad and at home. I fear for his safe return.
Oh, fear not, dear sheriff. He will return, and when he does he will wish to reward his faithful subjects.
28 INT./ EXT./ BISHOP'S PRIVATE CHAMBERS/ NOTTINGHAM CATHEDRAL
I asked your father three times if he worshipped the dark one and his answer vexed me so grievously. He said he must meet God with a clear conscience.
Your souls; do not shed blood in the house of God!!
Locksley, I'm gonna cut your heart out with a spoon!
Close the gate! He stole the sheriff's horse!
Water! For the animal. How can I protect you if I know not where you go?
You hardly raise a finger when you do know
I prefer to have the choice
Wonderful, you have stolen the sheriff's horse?
You stirred up a bloody hornets nest now!
Well, so is the sheriff and today I gave him this thing he'll not forget
You fool, you've started a war!
Duncan, bread. And I say we strike back at the very man who takes our homes and hunts our children's.
We? You're planning to join us then, mate?
Christian, these are simple people, they are not warriors. Be careful you don't do this for your own purposes.
You forget yourself, Azeem, I do not ask for your company or council.
30 INT./ SHERRIF'S CHAMBERS/ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE
Why a spoon, cousin? Why not an axe?
Because it's dull, you twit! It'll hurt more!
Oh, I want this brigand found. Starve them out, slaughter there:no, and take their live stock. I want Locksley own people fighting to bring his head in.
Perhaps we could create a name for him. Sometime to drive fear in to the hearts of the populous, maybe "Locksley the Lethal", or "Weakling Robin"
Whatever! I want him dead by the next fool moon, before the barons come back. Now sow! And keep the stitches small
Where's your mate? The man they call Little?
Leave us the sow, it'll feed us through the winter!
Ever heard of the Sherwood bandit?
Robin of the Hood, yes sir!
Pray he's brought to us before winter
They've burned the village, all of it! Where is this Robin Hood?
Look, look what they've done
If it's fame you seek, Christian, I think you have it.
You brought this misery on us, Locksley.
This is Nottingham, trying to divide us
We are divided, rich boy. I'm not as blind as that old man over there. You're still trying to be lord of the manor. I heard today that the sheriff now values your neck at five hundred goldpieces. I say we take him in!
Will, do you think that the sheriff will give everything back when I'm gone?
They'll give us the reward and our pardons
Wrong. He'll stretch your necks one by one.
Well, what will you have us do? Fight men on horsebacks with rocks and our bare hands?
But with the one true weapon that escapes you, Will. Courage
Thank you, Wulf. Wish to end this? Wish to go home? Then we must stop fighting amongst ourselves! And face that the price worth may be dear:But I for one would rather die and spend my life with hiding. The Sheriff calls us outlaws, but I say we are free! And one free man defending his home is more powerful then ten hired soldiers. The Crusades taught me that. I will make you no promises, safe one; that when you truly believe in your hearts that you're free then I say we can win!
They've got armour, so? Even this boy can be taught to find the chinks in every suit of armour.
But we ain't got nothing to eat!
What do we need that the forest can not provide? We have food, wood for weapons. We'll find safety in the trees.
Yeah, but what about our kids? The sheriff has taken all they've got to.
Then, by God, we'll take it back!
33 EXT./ ROAD THROUGH SHERWOOD FOREST
What's the meaning of this?
My lady, a woman with your beauty has no need for such decorations.
Please, please don't take that. Those belong to our Lord!
And now they belong to my Lord, the Sheriff!! Give it back!
Good, now tell the sheriff for every harm he does to these people, I'll visited back on him tenfold.
35 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CELLAR
36 EXT./ ROAD THROUGH SHERWOOD FOREST
It's a hot day, my friend, to burden your horse with such a heavy purse
The sheriff will hear of this!
Here you go, love. Buy yourself a new sow, Stephen!
God blesses you, Fanny! And God blesses Robin Hood!
38 INT./ SHERRIF'S CHAMBERS/ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE
We reckon he has nicked three to four million in the last five months, Sire.
Go on, fine, raise the penalty on his head to 25.000 crowns.
Begging your pardon, Sire. It won't do no good. How much you raise it.
Really, scribe, why is that?
Because Sire, the poor, you see. He gives to them what he takes. So, well Sire:They love him!
Wait a minute:Robin Hood steals money from my pocket, forcing me to hurt the public and they love him for it?
That's it then! Cancel the kitchenscrabs for lepers and orphans. No more mercy full beheadings. And call of Christmas!
The treasury is empty. All day and all night people plague my door waning about taxrelief and safe passage through Sherwood Forrest. "We can not pay it, because the highwayman has taken it".
It's the shortest route to London, Sire
It's the only way, you little ferret!
Sir Guy's patrol's have found nothing, Sire
No camp, nothing. This viper simply slivers into the forest.
You, my room 10.30, tonight.
You, 10.45. And bring a friend!
38 EXT./ ROAD THROUGH SHERWOOD FOREST
:laughter and a lot of drinking.
Let King Richard bless us all
But for us who stay at home
Play the music, dance today
Five! They can't count anyway, why scare them!
And they call me Barbarian
But for us who stay at home
Play the music, dance today:
Friar! Silence; you'll find it much more difficult to sing with a sword in your gullet.
Will you shut up, and help me move this stock
This isn't a stock, this is a tree!
Now will you shut up and start helping me!
I'm supposed to be meeting a girl
The men in front, after me! The rest stay with the wagon!
Bastards! Come on, find them!
Welcome to Sherwood, friar!
40 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
This treasure had a purpose. We must find out what.
Goodmorning, my reverent friend. You travel with poor company when you travel with Nottingham's soldiers
I'm Robin of Locksley. And my men are thirsty.
Robin Hood! God blesses me!
I mistook you for common thieves. Let me pass, Sir
Surely the Lord has the charity to spare a few barrels for good Christian men.
We have much to celebrate
Well, if you wish to share in the good Lord's brew, you must pass me for it!
Confess, Robin Hood, that Friar Tuck is a braver and wiser man then thy are!
He gives us and he takes it away:
I'd rather roast in hell!
Ho! I think the good friar has taken us far enough
Thank you, Lord, for teaching me humility
Are these not the meek of the earth?
We're in need of an honest men to minister them. What say you friar?
The Lord reveals himself in mysterious ways. I accept!
Good, you'll not regret it.
41 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ SMITHY
Spanish steel. Much stronger then our native blades. Any losses?
Some. The truth; all of them
They were woodsmen, cousin.
Cousin, we must be strong. We can't allow an outlaw to make fools of us. And I can't allow my
lieutenant to fail me! Well, at least I didn't use a spoon! This is good steel!
42 EXT./ ROAD THROUGH SHERWOOD FOREST
Roger, take the one on the left!
Which one is left? Which one are you taking?
You mean, which one am I taking?
If you're taking the one on the left, I'm taking the one on the right.
Which one is the one on the right
The one next to the one on the:
We'll just get out and grab them!
For passage through Sherwood.
Very well, come and get it.
You stupid scruff, how dare you attack us?!
Your job? And who's your employer?
I insist on seeing him at once!
43 EXT./ LAKE AND WATERFALL/ SHERWOOD FOREST
No, you do not go down there!
My lady's intrusion is simply treats his tracks (zijn verdiende loon)
Out of the way, you old tramp!
You can't go down there! I told you not down there!
My lady, don't! If you had said:
No, don't look at me like that, it wasn't my fault.
Carefully, it's slippy down there!
What happened to your eye, Bull?
We were set up by ten:twelve:fifteen large big lads!
44 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
45 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
That's good, WULF. Can you do it with a little distraction?
Can you make the shot when you must?
Is the shirt coming off, or not?
46 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
This is grain, which any fool can eat. But for which the Lord intended a more divine meaning of consumption. Let us give praise to our maker and glory to his bounty, by learning about:beer.
47 INT./ EXT./ TREEHOUSE/ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
Did you bring me here to brag?
This is blood money, Marian. It's intended to bribe King Richard's enemy's to unite them against him. We intercepted it.
No:Nottingham would not dare challenge the king!
Well, the King is not in England to be challenged, is he. While he's away he may loose his country. You thought:you thought I was keeping it all, didn't you?
Here, a contribution to your cause
No, this dagger would fetch such a great price!
Oh no, it's not dear to me! I mean, well:It's not. I'm saying everything wrong:Cheers!
Wait, wait! We don't go that way anymore.
We have a rule here, you know. Once someone has seen the way to our camp, that person can not leave. There are too many lives at stake.
That's why Sarah and I asked to be blindfolded.
Oh. Well, perhaps you might join us for dinner?
48 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
Did God paint me? Haha:for certain
Because Allah loves wondrous variety.
49 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
How is it that a once arrogant young nobleman, has found contentment living rough with the salt of the earth?
I've seen knights in armour panic at the first hymns of battle. And I've seen the loneliest, unarmed squire pull a spear from his own body, to defend a dying horse. Nobility is not a birthright, it's defined by ones actions.
It's interesting to hear you say that.
Did the holy quest raise your hatred of him?
I don't know. All I know was that our last words spoken in this world were spoken in anger
I was lost after my mother died. My father too and for a short time he found comfort in the arms of another woman. I thought he was betraying my mother's memory. For the love of a twelve years old boy who would never forgive him. Anyway, who says I'm content? I've my plans for the future
No?! A grander scheme than this?
No, a simpler one. A home, a family...you know
Men speak conveniently of love when it's serves their purpose. And when it doesn't it's a burden to them. Robin of the Hood, prince of thieves. Is he capable of love?
50 INT./ EXT./ WOODEN HOUSE/ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
Father! Father! Mother, she's dying!
Fanny, your baby has not turned! It can not be born without help.
He's a devil's seed. Don't listen to him, he will kill her!
If you do not listen to me, she will certainly die!
The good friar has done all he can. I suggest you let the Moore try.
So be it! And it'll be on your head, I warned you!
Marian, get me a needle, thread and water. Hurry!
Yes! Come with me! Come, John!
What are you going to do?
I've seen this many times. With horses.
Bite down! Bite down, yes!
I tell you, John, the barbarian is killing her!
Your son, my lady! There you are:
You truly are a great one
My son! Look at this little baby, isn't he wonderful?
Today the Lord has taught me a fine lesson. Although I may think I'm godly, I know I'm not worldly. Please:Not come my Barbarian friend! For you and I open a barrel together, to do our best to save each others souls.
Fine then, you'll talk. I'll drink
51 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST - NIGHT
52 EXT./ LAKE/ SHERWOOD FOREST - FOGGY MORNING
So you can not find the way back, when you're forced by others to tell the way.
It was good to see you again, Marian.
I have two favours to ask of you:
Take Duncan with you. I fear for his health for what lies ahead. Besides I grew tired of his bellyaching.
You wish me to leave, master Robin?
Old friend, listen to me. Can you bring Lady Marian safely home? I fear for her safety.
You're King Richard's cousin. You can give word to him of Nottingham's plans. He would believe you.
If the sheriff found out, I could loose al that I have
But will you do it for your king?
He fancies you, my Lady. I'm blind, but some things I can still see.
53 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CELLAR
In ten days time the barons are coming. Robin Hood has stolen what I was to pay for their alliance. I'm surrounded by fools, who do not realise my obligations! Tell me, Mortianna. Am I affronted?
Recruit the beasts that share our God.
Celts? They drink the blood of their dead.
Hired lugs! (huurlingen) ah, Brilliant!
Thy own issue on the thrown?
An ally with Royal blood.
54 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CATHEDRAL
It's a personal matter, My Lord. But one of vital importance.
I understand, my dear lady. This is my most trusted emissary.
Yes, he must travel to France immediately and put that directly into the hands of the King. And him alone! My lady in waiting will accompany you.
My dear, I could not vouch for her safety. The journey is froth with danger!
Yes, I appreciate your concern, My lord. But Sarah is an accomplished rider and I insist that she goes along.
55 EXT./ ROAD THROUGH SHERWOOD FOREST
The horse is fearing his foreleg.
55 INT./ DUBOIS CASTLE - NIGHT
Duncan, is that you? Hello? Rebecca?
Oh, Nicodemus. Find mice!
I've never seen the breasts of a noble woman:
My God! My Lady, we couldn't hold them!
Someone wants a word with you.
Easy! Easy:tonight I need your eyes, old friend.
57 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
Robin! Someone's coming! Oh, it's well. It's Duncan!
Duncan! Duncan, what happened?
I found you, Robin. Thank God, I did it. Nottingham's men attacked us.
To the trees!!! To the trees!
The old fool let them straight to us.
We've got to get out of here, Robin! Come!
FRIAR TUCK (with WULF and other children)
This way, my lambs. Come on:
Go, flee John, save yourself!
No, Fanny! I won't leave you!
John, you'll have to catch her!
Go on, don't wait for me! John, go!
58 INT./ EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE / CHAPPEL
By what right do you keep me prisoner?
You misunderstand my intentions. You've been brought here for your own protection.
From yourself! It seems you've been consorting with outlaws.
Where do you hear such lies?
By your own hand, my Lady
I'm sorry, my child. I feared you would be lead astray.
Come. It's over! Today I return justice to this land. I shall have to hang the real leaders of course, but I would like to be generous and give you the lives of the woodsman and their families.
The children! And of course of your traitorous lady in waiting, as a wedding gift.
And just who am I supposed to marry?
Search your heart, my child. Why not a union with the house of Nottingham, and heal the wounds in our land.
There's only one man who can heal the wounds of this land; Robin Hood.
I'm truly sorry, my lady. He wasted his life. How many more lives would you waist?
What a beautiful, child. So young, so alive, so unaware of how precarious life can be.
I had a very sad childhood, I'll tell you about it sometime. I never knew my parents. It's amazing I'm sane.
Marian, our bonding would allow these children to grow up as my allies. I'll understand. I can't allow them to grow up as my enemy's.
59 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
60 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE DUNGEON
Now I have heard that Robin Hood may still be alive. Either tell me where he may be hiding, or you'll be hanged and well find him anyway and we'll do the same thing to him.
Then why would I need you?
Because, my Lord, if he is alive, I could get close to him. I'm one of his men, he would never suspect me.
He knows you always hated him, traitor!
He's a trusting fool. He'll believe me and if he doesn't he'll kill me. And you have lost nothing.
If you fail I will personally remove your lying tongue
61 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
My pride brought us to this
No such a thing. It was you who gave pride to these people.
I was a fool. I was a fool to let him leave. I believed I planned it all so perfectly.
I once heard a really wise man say: there are no perfect men in this world. Only perfect intentions.
You're an honour to your country, Azeem. You fought better then twenty English knights.
Will!! I thought that you were taken?
Traitor! I'll break your skinny neck! You can't escape!
Get a rope! Where's my son?
I bring a message from Nottingham. Our men are to be hanged in the square at high noon tomorrow. The boy to. Ten men at all. The hangings are part of the celebration for the Sheriff's marriage:
The takes a bride of Royal blood
And with King Richard away, he'll be after the bloody thrown!
U would use this news to get close to me and then kill me, right Will?
What are your intentions.
Well, that depends on you, Locksley. I never trusted you, that's no secret. But what I want to know is, are you going to finish what you've started? I want to know if he's gonna split and run like the spoilt little rich boy I always took him for.
Did I wrong you in another life, Will Scarlet? Were does this intolerable hatred for me come from?
Knowing that our father loved you more then me
I'm your brother, Robin of Locksley. I'm the son of the woman who replaced your died mother for a time. It's your anger that drove them apart
It's not a lie! You ruined my life!
I have more reason to hate you then anyone. But I found myself daring to believe you. What I want to know brother, will you stay with us and finish what you've started?
I have a brother? I have a brother! So I'll stand with you, side by side. Until the end.
62 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
The mystery is in the black powder
63 EXT./ CAMP/ SHERWOOD FOREST
Bull, your position's by the gate to cut of reinforcements
John, You'll sit on this wall to protect our escape.
I'll will conceal myself here, below the scaffold, to cut our men loose at the signal.
No, I'll do that. You can cover us with your bow.
Whatever Azeem is concocting, we must seem to be in place for it. Now, our success depends on total concert, you are the only six men..
What are you doing, woman. Where are the little ones?
They are safe, they are with my mother.
Are you bleeding cracked girl, you could get hurt!
I've given birth to eight baby's. You don't talk to me about getting hurt, you big ox!
Anyway, I'm not just gonna sit here and let one of them die, am I?!
You should be bloody well minding the other seven! Tell her, Rob!
Fanny, you'll take position here.
64 EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CASTLE GATE
No blades, no bows! Leave your weapons here!
No blades, no bows! Leave your weapons here!
No blades, no bows! No blades!
What do you've got there, father?
The Lord's finest brew for the good Sheriff's fighting men! A mighty kick, huh?!
65 EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ COURTYARD
He, what do you want! He!
Watch out, he's a Celt! Horrible!
66 EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CASTLE WALL
67 EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CASTLE GATE
Please Sir, don't hurt me:
Pardon me, Sir. Pardon my blindness. I'm always falling..
Thank you for noticing me, Sir!
68 EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE COURTYARD/ SCAFFOLD
Ah, distributing liberation for the celebration of the Sheriff's naturals.
Why is there something wrong?
Yeah, you are! Come on, get this stuff out of here!
Caesar has spoken, my leprous friend. Let's get our offerings and depart. Is thing your finger?
Leper? What? Come on, get this cart out of here!
He leaves bits and pieces and so al over England
69 EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CASTLE WALL
Nothing, dear. I like a good hanging.
Ah, that's firewood! Hello, my lover!
70 EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ COURTYARD
Make way for the Lords work! Make way for the Lords work. A simple benedictary for these poor bastards. God, perceive them in thy mercy and show them your love, that they so richly deserve, although they are sinners.
He, nothing there but trouble, boy!
That's a little inappropriate, don't you think?
Not more then your wedding present
Bring them out! Get your hands of me, you bastard!
What's going on? Bring him here!
Oh, the turncoat. Did you succeed?
Well, I found his layer but he was already dead.
Are you sure? You saw Hood's body?
String him up with the others!
My Lord, it appears there's no more room. I'm afraid that I respectfully decline!
Come on, down! Down! There's always room for one more!
Get the troops in here! Now, what are you waiting for. Get on with it!
Come on, fight your way free!
71 EXT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE
Well Sir, is this your idea of control?
Shut up, you twit! Come with me!
English! English! I'm Azeem Edin Bashir Al Bachrim! I'm not one of you, but I fight. I fight with Robin Hood! I fight against the tyrant who holds you under his boot! If you want to be free men, then you must fight! Join us now! Join us now!
Close the gate! And guard it with your life1 Bring the bishop to my chapel!
72 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CHAPPEL
It's rebellion, my Lord. We must escape1
She's right! She'll give us a son! You must take her now!
I will not take her until we are properly wed. For once in my life I will have something pure. Will you stop interfering!
Marian! Marian! Where is she? The lady Marian?
Do you, George, the Sheriff of Nottingham, take this woman to be your lawful wedded wife. To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer and poorer
Do you, Marian of the House of Dubois, take this man to be your lawful wedded husband?
I can't do this with all that racket!
How could you! How could you!
73 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CASTLE PASSAGE
I didn't know! I didn't know it was you! Please, please, Sire. Have pity. Don't harm an old woman.
74 INT. NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CHAPPEL
You may take this body, but it will not be me! It will not be me!
I now pronounce you husband and wife, in the name of the father, the son and the Holy Ghost.
Do you mind, Locksley? We've just been married! Recognise this? It belonged to your father. Appropriate, don't you think, that I now use it to send you to meet him?
I shall never fear of my father's sword
Really? And now we're even!
If I must, I'll take you a piece of a time!
I do the only taking today
75 INT./ BISHOP'S PRIVATE CHAMBERS/ NOTTINGHAM CATHEDRAL
So, you sold your soul to Satan, your grace. You accused innocent man of witchcraft and let them die.
But brother friar. You would strike another man of the cloth.
No, I wouldn't. In fact, I'll help you pack for your journey! You have to take a lot of gold to help you on your way. You are a very rich men. And that, and that. Here's thirty pieces of silver to pay the devil on your way to hell!
76 INT./ NOTTINGHAM CASTLE/ CHAPPEL
You came for me. You are alive!
With the power vested in me, of God's holy church, I say let any man who has reason why these two should not be joined, let him speak now or forever hold his peace.
Then I now pronounce you:
I will not allow this wedding to proceed:
Unless, I'm allowed to give the bride away! You look radiant, cousin.
I'm deeply honoured, your majesty.
It is I who is honoured, Lord Locksley. Thanks to you I still have the thrown. Friar, proceed!
Husband and wife? You may kiss the bride
Now, get out of it! We're wasting good celebration time!
