Silence! Silence!
1:15:08
I cannot tolerate in silence
these accusations...
1:15:11
...that the law was violated
by court-martial officers...
1:15:14
...who shed their blood
on the battlefields of France...
1:15:17
...while others stab her in the back.
1:15:22
Each serves his country
in his own way:
1:15:26
One with a sword,
the other with a pen.
1:15:30
Posterity will choose
between your name and mine.
1:15:35
I will not stand these insults to men
intent only on doing their duty!
1:15:40
Gentlemen of the jury,
it is outrageous, traitorous...
1:15:44
...to deprive the army of confidence
in its chiefs in the day of danger!
1:15:49
And, believe me,
it is nearer than you think!
1:15:52
Gentlemen, it is your sons who will be
called on to defend France...
1:15:57
...while Monsieur Zola will stay at home
and write a new Downfall.
1:16:02
He will continue to make France famous
throughout the world.
1:16:07
- A France that will have ceased to exist!
- Long live the army!
1:16:12
Bravo. Bravo. Well acted, general.
1:16:15
Although there is no war
nor danger of war...
1:16:18
...you gave a very good performance.
1:16:20
But you did not utter a single word
to prove that Esterhazy was not guilty.
1:16:29
You cannot stop me from showing how he
tried to work on the sentiment of the jury!
1:16:34
I'll say what I have to say
if this trial lasts six months!
1:16:37
Monsieur Labori, address the court.
1:16:40
The general staff spoke as it pleased...
1:16:43
...the commander of Paris
influenced the jury...
1:16:46
...but the defense can say nothing.
Never has such a thing been seen.
1:16:50
What's your next question?
1:16:51
What is Colonel Picquart's
present address?
1:16:54
Mount Valerien fortress,
under military arrest.
1:16:58
Did he know that
by exposing Esterhazy...
