00:00See? Oh, my George, it's just little old me. Oh, pardon the horseplay, folks, but as you may have guessed, tonight's show is about that great American patriot, Paul Revere.
00:12I play the title role, which is only natural, because from head to foot, I fill the part of Paul Revere to a T. He has, we both wear a size 7 and 1 8 hat, a 36 coat, and a size...
00:25Oh, my shoes, now. Yeah, where are my shoes? Ha, ha, ha, here we are. Oh, my George, they're a little big. Oh, of course, the wardrobe man did this to remind me to mention the fact that there was an immortal poem written about Paul Revere.
00:43Ha, ha, ha, that's why they're such longfellows, longfellows. Oh, that wardrobe man is too much. Henry Waddington never approved of him.
00:54It is dawn of a vital day in history. In this angry capital of the British colony of Massachusetts, most people are asleep. Most people, but not all. Not the handful of brave men who belong to a secret underground group of patriots.
01:23They are wide awake and busy fanning the fires of protest. Later on that historic day, Fish Street has important visitors. Military Governor General Gage and his aide, Major Pitcairn.
01:40Major, this is the way I like to see the city. Peaceful and quiet. The people are in church. General Gage, it's not Sunday. Why are all the bells ringing? And where are all those peasants? I do believe you're correct. It's not Sunday. I wager those sons of Liberty are stewing up more trouble.
02:09Oh, oh, I sincerely hope not. I've tried my best not to make them angry. Where could they all be? Look, notices on every tree. Ah, I was right. Listen to this.
02:31Friends, brethren, countrymen, that worst of plagues, the detested teaship for this port is now arrived. Oh, oh, oh my. The rest is worse. We will never pay any tax levied by Parliament. Nottingham King George allows the colony to elect members to represent us. Why, this is treason.
02:54Treason? Oh, oh, my gracious. Only the sons of Liberty would dare do this. We've got to find out who they are. And this might be our chance. This notice calls everybody to a public protest meeting. Well, we'll go too and see who the leaders are.
03:13You're sure they'd allow us in?
03:16They've got to.
03:18Oh, they do?
03:19General Gage, you are the military governor.
03:23Oh, oh, so I am. Good thinking, Major.
03:35I fear we've arrived too late. They've almost all left.
03:40Yes, I'm afraid so. Ah, but look there, at the head of the steps. The one on the left, that's Paul Revere. And the silver-haired fop is John Hancock. And the sloppy one is Samuel Adams. They must be the leaders.
03:57Oh, gracious. Do you really think so?
04:01Yes, and one of these days I'll prove it. I'll hang the traitors.
04:06Oh, but that might make the people mad.
04:26Gentlemen, here, gentlemen. Brother Adams, he still has the floor.
04:31Thank you, Brother Revere. British law says those three British vessels filled with British tea must be unloaded by midnight of tomorrow night, or British soldiers will do the unloading and use British bayonets to collect the British tax.
04:51Oh, oh, that's what British law says. I say we'll never pay one farthing.
05:04And I say it's time now to stop talking. It's time now to act. To act like free men. To go to Griffin's Wharf and sink those ships.
05:20I agree with Brother Adams that it's time now to stop talking. May I speak, though, before we vote?
05:32There is no need to sink the ships. Instead, let's just sink the tea.
05:49Oh, I'd better not work anymore. Not only spoil it, my mind isn't on it. All I can think about is being an Indian.
05:58Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
06:01Hurry, Rachel, dear girl. It's almost midnight.
06:04There now, I'm all finished.
06:08Welcome, fellow Indians. Oh, where are your blankets?
06:12In my carriage.
06:14And here, gentlemen, are your feathers.
06:16Oh, thank you, dear lady.
06:17Mrs. Revere, history will remember what you have done this night to aid the cause of liberty.
06:24Yeah. Oh, Brother Adams, it's almost midnight.
06:28And after you use these ashes, we'd better go have our little tea party.
06:34Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
06:36Midnight, and all is well.
06:46Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
06:53Indians! Hey, look! Jammie-ups!
06:56Oh, I hope they don't come aboard.
06:59They'd better not try.
07:02I'm scared.
07:04Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
07:08Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
07:13Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
07:17Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
07:21Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
07:25Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
07:30Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
07:34These teeth, where do I get them?
07:37Oh, from animals, and I clean them and bind them with silver wire.
07:41They'll fit fine, now you'll see.
07:43Hey, church bells! Oh, what's happening?
08:02Oh, they do march well.
08:05They shoot well, too.
08:07Oh, and what do they shoot?
08:10Traitors!
08:11Oh, well, that's good. People here are loyal citizens.
08:15Loyal citizens do not dump the king's tea into the ocean.
08:19You're right, Major Pitcairn.
08:21Those Indians weren't being very loyal.
08:24They were not Indians, and I know it!
08:27Oh, you, they were?
08:29Oh, well, my, oh, my, oh, my!
08:32Nobody fools you very long.
08:34I'm sure you know who did it.
08:36Of course I do!
08:38The Sons of Liberty.
08:39Oh, now, now!
08:41Well, with the new laws, I'll take good care of those traitors.
08:45New laws?
08:47Yes, new laws that King George sent those 5,000 soldiers to enforce.
08:52Starting today, there will be no more trial by jury.
08:56There will be no more public meetings.
08:58And from now on, the port of Boston is closed.
09:02Oh, oh, oh, oh!
09:32You've got a wife and family.
09:33And I want them to be free!
09:35Farewell!
09:37Godspeed!
09:48Brother Hancock, I saw Mrs. Revere.
09:51She's had no word.
09:53Is she sure this is the night port that he'd return?
09:57Positive.
09:58Oh, there he is!
10:01Brothers! Brothers, he's here!
10:04Hurray!
10:08Brothers, I bring news!
10:10The other colonies will help!
10:13Hurray!
10:16But we must do the big job ourselves.
10:19We must break the British blockade that is choking the city of Boston.
10:23This colony will need every man in every village.
10:26Men with muskets and powder and cannon hidden away.
10:29But ready to be used on one minute's notice!
10:33If we must ride in by heaven, we will fight!
10:39Hurray!
10:44All during that summer and fall, Massachusetts appeared picturesque and placid.
10:49But throughout this colony were small groups of poorly equipped but determined military.
11:00Small groups preparing to harvest an incomparable crop called freedom.
11:05Led not by professional soldiers but by a trusted neighbor like farmer John Parker of Lexington.
11:14The hour, 4 p.m.
11:16The date, Sunday, April 16th, 1775.
11:22Paul Revere is in a hurry.
11:24So is history.
11:26For the world as Paul Revere, John Hancock and Samuel Adams know the world,
11:31will survive only another 59 hours.
11:36Hello, Revere?
11:38Yes, William Parker.
11:4030-minute men in one Concorde.
11:42The British are getting ready to march.
11:44But I'm not sure yet exactly when they'll come or how.
11:49See? That's Boston.
11:51They might march across Boston Neck to Roxbury.
11:54They've conquered first.
11:56Or they might go across the Charles River to Cambridge and get there in Lexington.
12:01I see. I'll get the word to Concorde.
12:04Good. And I'll get started for Charlestown.
12:08The place, Charlestown, across the river from Boston.
12:12The hour, 11 p.m.
12:14Time remaining, 52 hours.
12:18And I'll try to get over from the city as soon as I learn exactly when and how they're coming.
12:24Suppose you can't get through.
12:26The North Church. You see it?
12:29Of course. We can see the steeple even through the fog.
12:32Good, good. And watch that steeple every night.
12:34If they're leaving Boston by land, I'll hang one lantern.
12:38And I'll hang two if they're coming across the river.
12:42One if by land, two if by water.
12:47Correct.
12:49The place, British Army Headquarters, Boston.
12:52The hour, 10 a.m. Tuesday, April 18th.
12:55Secret orders arrive from London.
12:57They force the indecisive General Gage into action.
13:00Time remaining, 19 hours.
13:05Go!
13:07Prepare all horses of the 24th and 59th regiments.
13:11We move tonight.
13:16Nous leur proposons une technique très utile.
13:19A votre ordre.
13:21Everything must be water and ruins.
13:25We ouais !
13:27Sergeant, please sit down and have a look.
13:37These are for the Weiteren Regiment.
13:39They are afraid of water.
13:42Réveille-toi !
13:43Les britanniques s'échappent ce soir.
13:44Comment ?
13:45Je ne sais pas encore.
13:46Mais j'aurai besoin d'un bateau s'ils... s'ils passent par l'eau.
13:47Prie qu'ils ne le soient pas.
13:48Après le curfew, ils regardent la rivière si proche que les poissons ne peuvent pas passer.
13:49Mais je dois !
13:50General Gage a reçu des ordres secrets pour arrêter Hancock et Adams pour trahison.
13:51Et les enchaîner !
13:52Mais je ne peux pas !

15:11Où
15:24ça algorithme ça ?
15:25Je ne sais pas je ne comprend pas
15:27Si je ne comprends pas
15:28Deux lumières. Elles viennent de l'eau.
15:37J'aimerais que le Somerset n'ait pas autant de canons.
15:40Ça n'a pas grand-chose à voir. Un est tout ce qu'ils ont besoin pour un bateau.
15:44Si ils nous voient...
15:51Merci. Merci, frère Bentley.
15:53Les soldats britanniques patrouillent les routes. Soyez très prudents.
15:57Je le ferai.
16:02C'est l'homme. C'est le moment.
16:07Et c'est de cette façon que le voyage célèbre commence.
16:11L'heure est 12h20.
16:14Il reste moins de cinq heures.
16:18Marche !
16:24Marche !
16:31Les lumières vertes ! L'émerveille est arrivé !
16:37Près d'un siècle plus tard, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow écrit son poème immortel.
16:42L'émerveille arrive !
16:44Soit pendant une nuit, va rouler Paul Revere.
16:47Soit pendant une nuit, son cri d'alarme rentre dans chaque village de Middlesex et de Farnes.
16:51de la ville et de la terre, un cri de défiance et pas de peur,
16:55une voix dans la douleur, un tapotement à la porte,
16:58et un mot qui s'écoulera pour toujours.
17:00Nous sommes nés dans le vent de la nuit du passé,
17:03à travers toute notre histoire jusqu'au dernier.
17:06Dans l'heure de la douleur et de la pérille et de la nécessité,
17:09les gens se réveilleront et écouteront
17:11les trompettes de ce Steve
17:14et le message de la nuit de Paul Revere.
17:19Parker!
17:20Prends ton temps, les gars!
17:21Les Britanniques arrivent!
17:23Les Britanniques arrivent!
17:33Et s'ils marchent de cette façon,
17:35alors mon lieu est ici.
17:36Mais Adams a été malade.
17:38Sam, tu prends mon chariot.
17:40Je ne cours pas.
17:42Vous devez tous partir.
17:44Nous avons besoin de votre voix pour nous parler,
17:46pour convaincre les autres colonies
17:48que nous devons nous unir,
17:50ou que nous nous unirons tous séparément.
17:52D'accord, Paul.
17:53Admettons-le à John.
17:55Il a plus de sens que nous dans cet argument.
17:57Ordonnez le chariot.
17:58Mais soyez rapides.
17:59Vous n'aurez peut-être pas la chance d'échouer.
18:01Maintenant, pendant que vous deux vous débrouillez,
18:03je vais chercher un chemin en sécurité.
18:073h35.
18:09Il reste 85 minutes.
18:12Ils seront bientôt là.
18:14Nous aussi.
18:15Tous 70 d'entre nous.
18:17Et pas mal d'armes.
18:19Donc, nous n'allons pas tirer d'abord.
18:21Mais s'ils veulent se battre,
18:24laissons-le commencer ici.
18:31Lorsque Paul Revere
18:32cherche le chemin vers Burlington,
18:34le monde de 1775 va exploser.
18:37Lorsque Paul Revere cherche le chemin vers Burlington,
18:39le monde de 1775 va exploser.
18:43Regiment,
18:45tombez !
18:48Chargez vos armes !
18:52Voici.
18:53Donnez ce map à votre chauffeur.
18:55Il vous ramènera à Burlington Post Road.
18:57Si vous vous dépêchez.
18:59Allons-y.
19:02Paul Revere,
19:03c'est un moment de joie,
19:05un moment de joie.
19:06Il reste quelques secondes.
19:12C'était le début.
19:14Le tir de la guerre.
19:16Le premier tir de la révolution américaine.
19:20Depuis longtemps,
19:22ce pays a toujours été béni
19:24en temps de crise,
19:25avec des dirigeants de vision et de courage.
19:28Des hommes qui portent sur
19:30la riche tradition
19:32de Paul Revere.
19:35C'était le début.
