Association of Stuntmen in Russia
Russia - St. Petersburg.
November 29, 1798.
The Russian Emperor Pavel I adopted the title
Grand Master of the Maltese Order.
A single case in history where a Russian King...
...was to head the Catholic Knights.
Russia has begun to consolidate with countries in Europe against Napoleon.
Very soon Pavel I was murdered by conspirators.
MALTESE CROSS
What? What does that mean?
I don't understand what you're saying.
Give it to me!
Yes. Yes I am ready.
Pooh, you're insane!
Don't come back without it!
Emperor Pavel I became the first king, with his actions...
...cursed by the new direction of the country.
Incorrectly believed to be an empty episode in our history.
Pavel wanted to reign in Russia with a spirit of chivalry and order.
Emperor Pavel wanted to reign in Russia with a spirit of chivalry and order.
...and order.
There it is.
Here he is! Stop!
He's jumping!
Did you get the cross?
No.
Why show your face then?
Residence of the Order of Malta
I want to end negotiations with Romanov...
...for the purchase of the cross.
Please let us forget about the delicate request...
...which we invited you as a collector?
Masters, is nowhere mentioned in either one name.
Romanov did not accept the proposal.
You may keep it for yourself.
Perhaps you heard about the robbery at the house of
Romanov?
Oh, I wasn't expecting you!
What is this all about?
What is this about?
Let me go! I will tell you.
A message left by Emperor Pavel.
Called for a secret meeting.
His male offspring would receive enormous wealth.
But there is one condition.
The descendant must have the Victoria Cross made by the Emperor.
If the cross is stolen, after a year the inheritance will revert...
To those who remain of the Order.
Well, isn't that nice!
But so unfair
One Year Later
Russia - Mosfilm
...let's go!
Stupid!
Camera! Action!
Stop!
Somebody get a doctor!
Is there a doctor at the landing?
Are you alright? How are you?
- Everything's fine. - Are you giddy?
Look at me!
I told you it should have been lighter. I should've done it!
Dasha, it wasn't your fault!
So when do we strengthen the piers!
We have the funds, so strengthen them.
That's a wrap for today.
Thank you all!
Why is he giving the orders? I'm supposed to say "Cut", thanks!
Maybe he has something against me?
He has nothing against you.
Six months ago his wife and son...
...died in a crash.
Okay, Fedja?
They just called from Kinokluba. There will be a meeting with people.
Call them and ask if Galmatov will be there!
Who is that?
Dasha how can you not know?
He is the pride of Russian cinema.
It's true what the people in the village say.
You pull your hands out of your ass.
My water heater is very old, it gets the water too hot.
Alexey, tell me - you keep brandy?
Brandy? What the hell?
I want to cool the skin a little.
Still looking for cheap.
People's Artist of the USSR, but cools his hands in rainwater.
Okay. Take it easy!
Here's a gift from Mitja.
He's the only one that stayed, the others all ran away.
Oh, aren't you handsome!
Attention, please!
We'll be landing soon, and photography is forbidden!
Put the camera away, please! Thank you.
Did you hear the lady, Dimitri?
Only clouds. Nothing visible.
Dimitri, don't try my patience!
You'll make me turn the plane around.
Milena, since working with me you only listen.
We'll shoot a film about life in Russia.
First we must fly to Russia. There are many things you don't know.
Grandma?
Grandma, what is it?
You wouldn't understand. Everything is fine.
Russia is now a foreign country for you.
- Foreign? - Foreign.
Welcome, dear Natalia Pavlova and Dimitri Alexandrovich!
This is indeed a lucky day for us all...
...to have the heir to the throne Dmitry Romanov.
Taking his first steps onto Russian soil.
Thank you!
Embrace me!
I'm Yuri Vitalev and will protect you.
Very good!
No. 258. Gun with ruby decorations in the handle.
No. 121. Maltese Cross of Emperor Pavel I
Here is the program for tomorrow. Review it!
Let's do it tomorrow.
Very well, Attalia Pavlova.
And we can go to Moscow tonight?
Have patience.
Good night!
Dimitri, come here.
Dimitri, you are putting me in an akward position.
We cannot go.
You're too soon out of the hospital. You can't do like...
...other children do.
Go to sleep, now! Tomorrow we will have a hard day.
Yes ma'am!
Well, welcome to Russia!
The plan is all worked out for tomorrow? About 11:30, right?
Andrew, I cannot help you.
Well, then he will kill me.
There's nothing to worry about. I won't feel a thing.
Please! Don't go!
Dmitry said he would come to shoot Moscow at night.
Take charge and go home! You should rest.
You're not going to give me a ride?
No, I need to wait here a little longer.
Here's the room number, and your keys.
This money is for you.
I'm not taking it. I don't need his money.
No, this is my money.
I love you!
Bye.
Well dear.
This is the Baltic Hotel. I'm staying here with my grandmother.
This is old and historic, but I don't know the name.
Here, take it, please.
Yarik, hurry up and meet me in the Palace area!
Come! Watch the movie "The Last Emperor!"
Hurry, hurry!
Dolmatov in the role of Nicholas II.
- Sasha! - Fedor, hello! Where have you been?
I see only you in this role.
There is still a director.
You'll shoot this film?
Just give me your phone number.
Aren't you afraid?
I'm afraid.
Hero, well done!
I have no phone.
Why don't you have a phone?
What for? If they want Dalmatov, they will find him.
Have a drink! I know your directors.
Let's go!
No, I have a lot of work to do. I just came for you.
I see. Give your family my best! Did Vitya start school yet?
I don't understand...
Pyotar Alekseyevich, hello! You had me.
You put on a beard, and sideburns as well, you...
...must have made a lot of money from the advertising.
That's it.
Our King was a controversial figure. But he was a...
...martyr, not a clown with sideburns!
Where are you going? Please! Say something...
...I'll pay you!
You're a boil on my you know what!
Forgive me!
Sir, may I help you?
Young Russians! No, nothing. This is honor.
And I had one - Popular artist.
Did you come looking for me?
This is my job, Alec Dimitri Sandrovich.
Please do not put youself at risk any more!
May we watch this movie?
Wipe your eyes!
Alexei, come!
Uncle Vitaly, why won't he let him?
I cannot allow you to go ice skating.
What is permitted for your peers, is not for you.
Your blood is not good, and this is a disease.
This is not a tragedy, just a bit of unpleasantness.
You must do as I say... Please...
Natalia Pavlova, forgive Dimitri!
Later.
Is your dagger real?
It is genuine.
May I see it?
Thank you.
Are you still going? You're going to walk around the city.
I will watch a film being made!
Garrick, I'm here.
Listen, this will be just like when Grandma meets the Big Bad Wolf.
I know.
Little Red Riding Hood asks "Where is Grandma?" The Wolf says, "I don't know."
He ate her!
Vova, are you there?
I'm on site.
Remember, after the boat ride we're going to the zoo.
I've changed my mind.
I'm going with grandma to see a film being made.
I'll shoot a film about how to shoot a film.
I'm going to the Mosfilm.
Instead of Hollywood, it's Russian Mosfilm.
Dimitri, unfortunately this is impossible.
She has an agreement with the Director of the Kino Studio.
Dimitri, we have a program.
Hey, baby.
We're going to the Mosfilm set.
Mosfilm? Why?
I did everything possible, but Dimitri...
...personally spoke with the director.
That's it. I can't talk any more.
Viktor Pavlovich, we have a problem.
Are you ready?
Ready?
Stand clear of the truck!
Let's do it!
- Excuse me, are you a double? - Yes.
Can I photograph you?
And how are you?
Engine.
Camera. Action...
Yes! Yes!
Perfect!
Lunch for everybody!
Ivanich, not a bad jump.
This will all have to be replaced. Take a look.
Did you see the whole thing?
Dimitri Romanov Alexandrovich.
Konov... Alexander.
I'm very pleased to meet you.
Skokcheto (The Small Hop) was better, right Grandma?
Skokcheto?
Where did you learn such things?
Can I sit in the truck?
Yes you can.
Can I sit behind the wheel?
Only if your grandmother permits it.
Excellent!
Are you in place?
Yes, waiting, waiting.
I can't hear.
The helmet blocks out sound.
- These are the blinkers? - Yes.
- And what's that? - Only for looks.
Aren't you afraid to do stunts?
Of course I am afraid.
I'm afraid... every time I do it.
You're afraid... every time... you do it.
The boy has left the set.
With a man.
- Now's our chance. - Got it.
Drive!
Where are your parents?
I have no parents. They were killed in an airplane crash.
I don't remember them.
The whole city of the Emperor was filmed here.
A wonderful actor plays the role of Nicholas II.
Yes, Dalmatov is a wonderful artist.
Capture the panorama.
He lives in a village outside the city of Dalmatovo.
Dolmatov in Dolmatovo. Is that a private estate?
In a manner of speaking, yes.
I'd like to be invited - an official visit.
Not a problem. You will find him.
Alright, I'm on my way!
I'm sorry, Prince, but they are calling me back to the set.
Alright. stand in front of the church and I'll film you!
Okay, stop there! Right there.
Left a little! On the left of me. Yes.
You know the age for such work?
Hurry! Grab the boy!
Don't cry out, boy! Quiet, quiet!
Where is the camera?
It's there,
Why didn't you get it?
Alexander, let me do this stunt!
Why do you need to do stunts?
I need to! Just like you, I need it.
The boy has been kidnapped!
Who?
Black Mercedes.
Get in the truck,
Lyuchovete, Go!
And where do I go? Where?
Is that them?
That's them.
What are you doing?
Let me go!
I am a Deputy.
We're searching for an abducted child.
- Sasha do you see them? - Where is the boy?
You will personally answer for this!
- A roadblock! - Don't worry, it's nothing, nothing.
- They're stoping everyone! - A minor hurdle.
How can you stop me again? This is the fifth time already.
Damn.
What, idiot? Don't you see the light? I will not let us get caught!
Leonid! Lyaba! Start the car immediately!
You are a big fool.
I've got them. I'm going to try to slow them down.
- Mother! - Shut up fool.
All units close in!
I'm almost on top of them! I'll block them!
Send an ambulance to the ten kilometer marker!
Drive faster!
This is for Lyaba!
Who ordered you to shoot?
Go ask my partner, Lyaba!
I understand, Mr. President.
Sit!
On the film set, Dimitri met Konov, the stuntman.
We wandered around the scenery. The stuntman received a call and left
After leaving...
What was his name?
Konov. He is a double for the stunts.
We know everything about you.
What do you mean, everything?
Everything relevant to us.
If anything happens to the Grand Duke...
Then why don't you stop wasting time and make it happen.
So far, only silence.
Do not leave Moscow! Sign this, now!
Tell me, have you done many stunts?
I thought you knew everything.
To complete the role, I need money, beer, naked bodies.
I have a proposal.
What's that?
A screenplay. Melodrama and everything
Is there murder?
No.
Does it have robots?
No.
Then there's no money in it.
Read it first.
Alexander Ivanovich...
What is this?
She's a double... a beginner.
I'll wait.
She's crazy.
Sorry. Yes?
You didn't stop the camera, and it's recording me now.
I'll be there soon.
Watch out!
"His Latest Love" What do you think?
Horror.
This is my jump.
We cut that.
Stop, stop stop stop. Go back a little!
Have a look at this pretty boy!
With such a suit with such a crock.
Who is this character?
Yeah, the car has a child.
I think this guy was involved in the kidnapping.
We'll search the grounds, alright?
Simple operation.
Hello.
You will get your grandson in exchange for the Maltese Cross.
In an hour, I will tell you where the exchange will take place.
The number is 617.224. Pirogovsko storage reservoir...
...and it's in motion.
My grandson was kidnapped because of the Maltese Cross!
Because of the Cross?
And where is it? Where is the Cross?
Wait! You forgot the permit to remove it!
Thank you. Thank you.
Put him there.
What's that?
He had a cut. All wrapped and bound.
No, not me, no!
Did you call the Lady Pavlovna?
With God first!
And if I detect any troops around,
she will never see her grandson again! Do you understand me?
Got it.
Fall back!
Stop there.
Turn to your right.
Now forward.
Keep going!
Go, go!
Enter through the green door!
Exactly, exactly.
A little more, a little more...
Stop right there.
Now show me the cross!
I want to see my grandson!
First the cross... You ready?
Leave it on the floor in front of you!
Send him out.
Mitenka, my boy! Mitenka...
That is not him! Not him! Not...
Well, Mr. Romanov!
God, you scared me.
Excuse me!
You work with Romanov right?
Yes, for about a year.
I curious about him.
He is gone now.
On the trail of the kidnappers.
I don't know what you mean...
They informed me of the demands.
I'm sorry, I don't know anything about it.
Give this to Yuri.
What is this?
Important documents. They'll help us find the boy.
Why give them to me, and not the police or prosecutors?
They'll all receive them soon.
Okay, I'll give them to him.
Personally, to Yuri!
Here's my card. Thank you!
My family gets back the cross, grandmother and grandson that's all.
We're free!
- How tired I am! - This is because of me.
- Yes? - Alexander Ivanovich, it's Milena.
I followed your instructions and Yuri Vitalievich is...
...ready to meet you.
Take down the address and code!
Holy Mother take care of your believers!
Save him... Deliver my grandson...
Mitenka, eat, eat!
What do you want to be?
I want to shoot films.
You mean a director?
No, a cameraman.
Surely you're not serious, not serious.
The Great Prince as a cameraman.
I want to be king.
I am also descended from the Romanovs.
My great-grandmother sinned with your great-grandfather.
Before you sits the successor of the Russian Throne.
There can only be one Successor.
King? It'll never happen!
Why?
You're evil.
Mitja, it will happen, will happen!
I'm one of those who gets what he wants.
Do you want to see the documents, letters,...
Did you write them yourself?
I bought them.
Sure.
Good day!
Quickly, quickly!
Milena, it's Konov.
Come in, come in! She'll be right with you.
Yes, come!
What are you doing up there?
We're just about ready!
Give me that!
Thanks!
Let's go!
Stay here!
Seryoga...
After them! Quick...
Call the others!
Come here! Quickly, quickly!
He wanted to implicate you in the abduction.
Then ordered me to go to the police.
There they are!
Well, excuse me!
We kidnapped the Prince for some man...
who wanted the Maltese Cross.
They're going up!
Get out of the way!
Here, here.
- Good day! - Good morning!
Forgive me.
Is there anything I can help you with?
This is what we need!
- Where is the dressing room? - There.
I'll try it on.
But the dressing room is on the other side.
Don't worry, don't worry.
This way.
There they are!
Wait for me!
- Climb up there! - I can't, shit!
You fool, they're trying to kill us! Up, faster... faster!
Come on, white trash, don't be afraid!
Have you ever gone sledding?
No, I haven't. No...
We'll pay next time.
Get ready for the photo!
- How did this happen, such a son-in-law - Get ready!
Here's the young couple! Salute them!
- Where is Dmitri now? - I don't know.
Long life together! Congratulations!
Hey, what are you doing? Who are you?
Now I'll teach you!
Guys, protect the bride!
I will not give my daughter to whomever this is!
I will not give you my daughter!
A fight! See the fight!
- Who knows where Dimitri is? - Only Andrew.
Do something! What is happening?
Madam, this is an old Russian Tradition - battling...
...a wedding. But many have begun earlier.
Everything was set, but the reptile got out.
- There's the motherfucker. - Easy! I can explain.
Where is Dimitri? Tell me!
- Let's go! - Where?
Hello.
Sascha, I'm Milena. I got your number from Dimitri Romanov's phone.
Konov is in danger and he needs your help.
Write down this address.
I can help you.
- I've changed. - Why?
I know him. Call it insurance.
- Why not ask Milena? - I will.
Words mean nothing.
She was in on everything. She was doomed like the rest of us.
We're here.
Here is the real one.
You have an opportunity - to trust me.
Viktor Pavlovich.
Yes.
Andrew's here, something is wrong.
Is Sam?
Sam.
Drop it! Come to me!
Viktor Pavlovich.
Later.
Kasoton, come here!
Kasoton...
Where's the boy?
Freeze. Don't move!
Alexander Ivanovich! Alexander Ivanovich...
Are you OK?
I'm better, now.
- What do you think? - Yes Viktor Pavlovich.
How did he find my address?
That's unexplained. I don't know.
Yes?
There's a woman at the door. Her name is Milena and...
...she's looking for you.
Your girlfriend's here.
She mustn't see me, please!
Lord, she should not see me!
Are you going to marry her?
How so?
Hey, can you get me that?
What?
Hide me! Viktor Pavlovich, hide me!
Very strange coincidences today.
No! I can explain all.
He made me do it. He...
Don't...
Quick! Hide!
Where are my precious guests?
Well done, stuntman.
Where the hell is our boy?
Stop shooting!
- How is he? - Unconscious
It's over. No more looking for you.
You're nothing more than an insect to me.
Let's finish this for good?
That's fine with me.
I guess this is it?
So what are you waiting for? Shoot!
Oh, no. I'm not done with you yet.
Security! Get in here, quick!
They'll kill you.
Nothing wrong with me. Just a little cut.
Open up! Open, hey...
Open up, stuntman!
Go get the keys, we'll unlock this door.
Have they got us?
Not yet.
Here's what we're gonna do! Listen to me close!
What are you doing?
You're going to become a stuntman.
When you get out, start running. Try to get to Dolmatov.
Action!
Open the door slowly!
Get out here!
What are you doing? Drop your weapon!
Run, boy!
Here I am.
Kill him!
I'm afraid, I think...
I'm afraid I jumped!
Please stop!
Stop, stop!
- Take me to Dolmatovo. - I can't, my wife is giving birth!
At least let me make a call!
Here, come on. Quickly, my wife is giving birth!
Hello, Dasha where are you?
- Coming to save you! - Where is Patavash?
On his way to Gorky, but aren't you there?
Forget Gorky! Go to Dolmatovo!
Well... okay, but what in the world is in Dolmatovo...
Thanks! Go!
Now you have time to give birth.
Zoshto then stopped? Freaky work.
Stop!
What's a boy like you doing in the forest? Are you lost?
I didn't understand your question. Could you...
...repeat it, please?
Oh, never mind.
Dolmatovo! Stop, please!
Have a drink? Well, I will.
What's that creaking?
Maybe it's a tiger.
No, not a tiger.
Where did you leave the kid?
- What kid? - Where?
It's just a scratch, but it's not healing.
I have a herb we can try.
Run, boy!
It's just a scratch, but it's...
There can only be one Successor...
Must be a...
Hemophilia - the aristocratic disease.
And his successor has the same disease.
What nonsense are you talking about?
It's not nonsense, the Prince and his...
How is it?
It's drying up, look!
Yes, there's other ways...
besides traditional medicine.
Hello, sir Dolmatov! Do you know who I am?
It seems to me, Vidal, that I have seen this face somewhere.
I am Grand Duke Viktor Romanov Alexandrovich.
I have to inform you,
I'm being chased... by a man... who wants... to kill me.
Here it is. This must be our boy.
Why did you come here to stay?
Where's the boy?
Relax. What boy?
Search the house!
Oh no you don't! This is a famous artist of USSR.
I have diplomatic immunity...
You piece of shit!
Let me go! Let me go! Don't you dare...
Who permits this? Let me go!
Why did you run?
Deal with them!
Dima, everything's going to be okay.
Hey!
Collector Hrenov?
Hrenov.
Run, boy!
Your cross is a fake. I have the real one.
Hand it over! Give it back to me!
Drop the gun!
Are you deaf? I said throw it away!
Let me go!
- Now close your eyes! - No!
You're a pretender.
Go!
About 500 meters. We'll catch him in the shallows.
Go! What are you doing?
There were people there. Watch the road!
Here! There is a shoal.
Go, go!
I thought you were stronger.
Don't think about it, just jump!
Where are you going?
Fake, fake...
Mitja...
- How are you? - I'm better, now.
Alexander Ivanovich.
I told you that I was lighter.
Did you see me? I flew 10 meters.
Pick up the handset!
Why are you so funny?
Pick up the handset, I say!
They're looking for you?
No, they're looking for you.
Yes?
Alexander, what are you doing?
Swimming.
In a pool?
We read the script and we like it.
We will change its name - "His Last Mistress"
The old man can't be a teacher. It is against the law!
We'll talk about it tomorrow! We'll get Dalmatov as well!
Well, if we can.
What if we?
Konov, it's useless to resist. Give it up!
You are under arrest for the kidnapping of Dimitri Romanov. Release him!
It is important the time we have left Dolmatovo.
Tonight our guests are the descendants of the family
Romanov.
Their visit and the exhibition, which Zack Riva presented today...
...the event has gained prominence for us.
We are touched by the story.
Why do you pull so, why?
He's with me. Welcome!
Look at all the security.
As time creates its own values, it destroys what came before.
- Thank you! - I brought herbs for any occasion.
You'll not find any better in all of Paris.
For the enjoyment and contemplation of you all.
Thank you!
One moment, please!
This is our gift to Russia.
This is the Maltese Cross of Emperor Pavel I.
As a gift back to Russia.
So I decided... no...
We decided, myself and my grandmother,
Alexander Ivanovich and Dasha, they also decided.
My Uncle Vitali also decided.
But we have a difficult task.
Dalmatov he also decided. He will soon be healed.
Healed or mended?
Healed. Healed...
We all decided!
All.
