1:32:06
Tremendous pressure
has been put upon you.

1:32:09
"Save the army.
Convict Zola and save France."

1:32:14
I say to you, pick up that challenge!
1:32:19
Save the army and save France...
1:32:24
...but do it by letting truth conquer.
1:32:27
Not only is an innocent man
crying out for justice...

1:32:31
...but more. Much more.
1:32:34
A great nation is in desperate danger
of forfeiting her honor.

1:32:40
Do not take upon yourselves a fault...
1:32:43
...the burden of which
you will forever bear in history.

1:32:48
A judicial blunder has been committed!
1:32:51
The condemnation of an innocent man
induced the acquittal of a guilty man.

1:32:56
And now, today,
you're asked to condemn me...

1:33:00
...because I rebelled on seeing our country
embarked on this terrible course.

1:33:08
At this solemn moment,
in the presence of this tribunal...

1:33:14
...which is the representative
of human justice...

1:33:17
...before you gentlemen of the jury...
1:33:20
...before France,
before the whole world...

1:33:24
...I swear that Dreyfus is innocent.
1:33:28
By my 40 years of work,
by all that I have won...

1:33:33
...by all that I have written
to spread the spirit of France...

1:33:38
...I swear that Dreyfus is innocent.
May all that melt away.

1:33:44
May my name perish
if Dreyfus be not innocent.

1:33:50
He is innocent.
