$$"English School"
:17:11
Excuse me.
Do any of you ladies speak English?

:17:15
We all speak English.
:17:17
- You're students at this school?
- They are students. I am the teacher.

:17:21
You're the teacher?
I hope this is my lucky day.

:17:24
I need a good translator,
and I'd be honored if you'd help me.

:17:37
Now I must go.
Do you still want me to translate?

:17:40
Yes, I do.
:17:58
Would you read the last entry?
:18:05
"The Americans are here.
:18:08
They have brought tanks
and helicopters.

:18:14
The young men are afraid...
:18:16
but I tell them...
:18:19
'Do not fear,
because the Americans are huang phi."'

:18:25
Huang phi.
It's a word that means "soft."

:18:28
Well, actually--
:18:31
"Decadent."
Do you understand?

:18:36
"They can never win because they use
only those of our people...

:18:40
who are also huang phi.
:18:43
The peasants are with us
because they hate the huang phi.

:18:48
What do you believe?
:18:50
I'm not interested
in politics, Mr. Vann.

:18:53
What are you interested in?
:18:57
My school.
