1 00:00:05,940 --> 00:00:08,709 Through the Looking Glass 2 00:00:09,356 --> 00:00:11,900 after the eponymous tale by L. Carroll 3 00:00:12,188 --> 00:00:13,309 Part Three 4 00:00:13,992 --> 00:00:15,208 To the House of Tweedledum To the House of Tweedledee 5 00:00:17,416 --> 00:00:19,567 The arrows, for some reason, both pointed the same way. 6 00:00:20,726 --> 00:00:25,270 "I do believe," thought Alice, "that Tweedledum and Tweedledee live together!" 7 00:00:25,831 --> 00:00:29,119 I'll just visit and say "how d'you do?" and ask them the way out of the wood. 8 00:00:39,463 --> 00:00:45,902 If you think we're wax-works, you ought to pay, you know. They are pay-per-view. 9 00:00:46,295 --> 00:00:49,766 Contrariwise, you ought to do otherwise. 10 00:00:50,048 --> 00:01:00,056 - I'm very sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. - The first thing in a visit is to say "How d'ye do?" and shake hands! 11 00:01:03,264 --> 00:01:18,143 Tweedledum and Tweedledee Agreed to have a battle For Tweedledum said Tweedledee Had spoiled his nice new rattle. 12 00:01:18,686 --> 00:01:26,280 So nice it was... so new it was... Had spoiled his nice new rattle. 13 00:01:26,742 --> 00:01:41,623 Just then flew down a monstrous crow, As black as a tar-barrel; Which frightened both the heroes so, They quite forgot their quarrel. 14 00:01:42,167 --> 00:01:55,913 Tra-la (ra-la-la!), tru-lu (ru-lu-lu!) ...they quite forgot... their quarrel! 15 00:02:05,672 --> 00:02:08,031 Do you see that? 16 00:02:09,879 --> 00:02:16,511 - I knew it! It's spoilt! - You needn't be so angry about an old rattle. 17 00:02:16,700 --> 00:02:24,435 But it isn’t old! It's new, I tell you. My nice new RATTLE! 18 00:02:25,876 --> 00:02:35,380 - Of course you agree to have a battle? - I suppose so! Only she must help us to dress up. 19 00:02:41,004 --> 00:02:50,164 Fasten it tighter, or my head could get cut off. You know, the loss of one's head is a very serious loss. 20 00:02:52,444 --> 00:03:00,370 I'm very brave generally, only to-day I happen to have a headache. Do I look very pale? 21 00:03:01,124 --> 00:03:06,931 And I’ve got a toothache! I'm far worse off than you! - Then you’d better not fight to-day. 22 00:03:07,332 --> 00:03:16,596 - We must have a bit of a fight! - Let's fight till six, and then have dinner. 23 00:03:17,251 --> 00:03:25,932 - What a thick black cloud that is! Why, I do believe it’s got wings! It's the crow! 24 00:03:36,714 --> 00:03:39,172 Oh, that's the White Queen! 25 00:03:44,275 --> 00:03:49,956 Would you like to be my lady's maid? Twopence a week and jam every other day. 26 00:03:50,715 --> 00:03:56,251 - No, thank you - and I don't want any jam today. - You won't receive it today. 27 00:03:57,044 --> 00:03:59,332 Jam every other day. 28 00:04:00,715 --> 00:04:04,675 That's dreadfully confusing, I don't understand you at all. 29 00:04:05,412 --> 00:04:10,899 - It's just that you are not used to the effect of living backwards. - Living backwards? 30 00:04:25,956 --> 00:04:31,420 - My finger's bleeding! Bleeding! - Have you pricked your finger? 31 00:04:31,948 --> 00:04:42,916 Not yet, but it hurts already. And now I shall prick it. That accounts for the bleeding, you see. Now do you understand the way things happen here? 32 00:04:43,435 --> 00:04:51,732 - Then your finger no longer hurts? - No!... It does not. Thank you, tha-a... baa-a-a-a.... 33 00:05:13,692 --> 00:05:15,324 What is it you want to buy? 34 00:05:16,603 --> 00:05:23,762 - I should like to buy an egg, please. How do you sell them? - One for ten kopek, two for five-kopek and a half. 35 00:05:24,996 --> 00:05:27,364 Then two eggs are cheaper than one? 36 00:05:28,315 --> 00:05:38,028 Then I'll have one, please, - I never put things into people's hands —if you ne-e-ed it, ge-e-et it for yourself! 37 00:05:38,563 --> 00:05:44,307 "But that's Humpty Dumpty!" Alice thought. "That's him and nobody else!" 38 00:05:45,355 --> 00:05:50,340 Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall: Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. 39 00:05:51,708 --> 00:06:02,227 All the King's horses and all the King's men Couldn't put Humpty... couldn't put Dumpty... Humpty Dumpty, Dumpty Humpty, Humpty Dumpty in his place again. 40 00:06:03,333 --> 00:06:11,828 - How exactly like an egg he is! - I am so fed up with this! Everybody calls me an egg. Every and all! 41 00:06:12,244 --> 00:06:16,627 Wouldn't you be more at ease down on the ground? That wall is awfully narrow! 42 00:06:17,164 --> 00:06:22,900 Not at all! But if ever I did fall off, the King has promised me — with his very own mouth — to... 43 00:06:23,324 --> 00:06:31,133 - To send all his horses and all his men. - You were eavesdropping, weren't you? 44 00:06:32,027 --> 00:06:39,621 - No, I read it in a book! Would you kindly tell me the meaning of the poem called "Jabberwocky"? 45 00:06:40,292 --> 00:06:46,788 I can explain all the poems that were ever invented — and a good many that haven't been invented just yet. Let's hear it! 46 00:06:47,211 --> 00:06:53,772 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. 47 00:06:54,259 --> 00:06:58,284 That's enough to begin with. Well, then: 48 00:06:58,611 --> 00:07:06,572 "Brillig" means eight o'clock in the evening when it's time for supper. - I understand. And "slithy"? 49 00:07:07,667 --> 00:07:16,715 That's lithe and slimy. That word is like a portmanteau - you open it and find two compartments! Two meanings packed up into one word. 50 00:07:17,683 --> 00:07:23,684 - Ah, I see it now... and what are "toves"? - They're a mixture of ferrets, badgers and corkscrews. 51 00:07:24,708 --> 00:07:29,980 - They must be very curious looking creatures! - They are that. - And what's the "gyre" and to "gimble"? 52 00:07:30,955 --> 00:07:37,595 - To go round like a gyroscope, to make holes like a gimlet! - And what is "the Wabe"? - Farewell. 53 00:07:38,532 --> 00:07:46,892 - Never in my life have I met someone so repulsive... so rip-rap-ryp-repulsive. 54 00:07:57,932 --> 00:08:03,068 My dear, did you happen to meet anybody? I've sent all my horses and all my men! 55 00:08:03,468 --> 00:08:10,347 - There are thousands of them there! - The exact number is 4207 people. 56 00:08:10,447 --> 00:08:12,339 I am expecting a Messenger any minute now. 57 00:08:12,539 --> 00:08:15,268 Just look along the road, who do you see there? 58 00:08:19,155 --> 00:08:24,212 - Nobody. - I only wish I had such eyes! To see Nobody, and at that distance, too! 59 00:08:31,967 --> 00:08:35,228 Who did you pass on the road? - Nobody. 60 00:08:35,676 --> 00:08:43,647 This young lady saw him too. What's happened in the town? - I'd better wh... whisper it in your ear. 61 00:08:43,792 --> 00:08:44,892 - Go on. 62 00:08:44,892 --> 00:08:51,323 - They’re at it again! - Do you call that a whisper?! If you should ever 63 00:08:51,699 --> 00:08:57,251 scream like that again, I'll have you buttered! - Who are at it again? 64 00:08:57,748 --> 00:09:10,332 Why, the Lion and the Unicorn, of course. Fighting to the death for the crown. For my crown, by the way. Let's run and see them! 65 00:09:20,964 --> 00:09:27,267 I hear you saying: "like fairy-tale living" But judge for yourselves: is that easily lived? 66 00:09:27,684 --> 00:09:38,044 You can't do a thing here without being cautious, Because of uncertainly and of obscurity, And lack of knowledge and unpleasantness... 67 00:09:38,539 --> 00:09:44,571 Oh, it's so complicated! And that's where the fun is! You can't take one step here without taking care. 68 00:09:45,108 --> 00:09:54,732 Although, on the bright side, In fairy tales we meet With real, living queens, Sometimes even a king. 69 00:09:55,692 --> 00:09:59,844 And have a nice chat with The real Humpty Dumpty, 70 00:10:02,012 --> 00:10:05,560 And we sing songs with, And we sing songs with Tweedledum, Tweedledee.
