:50:01
or a tradesman who doesn't want to
be part of your collective? Okay?
:50:04
These people are anti-fascists.
What do you do then?
:50:07
It sounds really great on paper,
but in reality it won't work...
:50:10
because
it's going to pit the peasants
:50:12
against the anti-fascists. Okay?
:50:14
You're fighting now and it's going
to endanger your food production.
:50:17
Lawrence, I think
that private ownership of land
:50:20
must be totally given up,
forgotten, cancelled...
:50:24
because it maintains people
in a capitalist mentality.
:50:28
I agree. Okay.
I agree with, I mean,
:50:30
I'm not here to argue for,
for private property.
:50:32
I know the definition of
private property.
:50:34
I know what it does.
:50:35
Okay, I'm not arguing that.
:50:36
This is not the time for
these textbook arguments
:50:38
on socialism or land reform.
:50:39
We have to defeat fascism,
that's the priority.
:50:41
Are you suspecting this man to,
to speak about the textbook of...
:50:45
socialism?
:50:48
No, I'm not!
:50:51
Well, I'm,
I'm agreeing with him. Okay?
:50:53
I'm agreeing with
the collectivisation, all right?
:50:55
But these people
cannot collectivise anything
:50:57
if they're dead. Okay?
:50:59
Well, this is, is your opinion.
:51:01
My opinion!
They asked for my opinion.
:51:02
No, but in my village, the people
didn't wait for the government
:51:05
to give them the land.
:51:06
They took it themselves.
:51:08
Nadie espero a que les dijesen
que tenian
:51:10
que hacer con la tierra,
la cogieron ellos mismos.
:51:22
I want you to think
beyond this village, okay
:51:25
at a much bigger picture.
:51:30
Okay. I have no doubt that
the Spanish people,
:51:33
on their own,
could have 'licked' Franco.
:51:40
But you're not fighting
just Franco,
:51:41
you now have Mussolini and Hitler
on your back.
:51:48
Okay. With the exception
of Russia and Mexico...
:51:51
the rest of the world has turned
its back on you. Okay?
:51:54
They refuse to
sell the Republic arms.
