影片对白


MAJOR HALBERT: My lord, there is a rider at the gates. A civilian 1 carrying a white flag.


CORNWALLIS: I'm occupied .


MAJOR HALBERT: He has a pair of dogs with him. Great Danes.


CORNWALLIS: Now we come to the matter of the specific targeting of officers during engagements. Of course you must know that in civilized 2 warfare 3, officers in the field must not be accorded inappropriate levels of hostile attention.


MARTIN: To your mind , what are appropriate levels of hostile attention?


CORNWALLIS: Colonel, imagine the utter chaos 4 that would follow from leaderless armies having at each other. There must be gentlemen in command to lead and, and, and when appropriate, restrain their men.


MARTIN: Restrain them from, say, targeting civilians 5. Women, children and such?


CORNWALLIS: That's a separate issue.


MARTIN: No, no, no, I consider them linked. As long as your soldiers attack civilians, I will order the shooting of your officers at every engagement. And my men are excellent marksmen.


CORNWALLIS: Very well, now let us move on to... 


MARTIN: Prisoner exchange.


CORNWALLIS: Sir?


MARTIN: You have eighteen of my men. I want them back.


CORNWALLIS: I, I do have eighteen criminals under sentence of death, but I, I hold no prisoners of war.


MARTIN: If that's your position, then eighteen of your officers will have to die. Nineteen, if you hang me with my men.


CORNWALLIS: My officers?


MARTIN: Sir, top of the ridge 6, to your left. Just Below the tree line.


CORNWALLIS: Their names and ranks?


MARTIN: They refused to give me their names. But their ranks are nine lieutenants 7, five captains, three majors and one very fat colonel who called me a cheeky fellow.


CORNWALLIS: You know this is not the conduct of a gentleman.


MARTIN: If the conduct of your officers is the measure of a gentleman, I take that as a compliment. Get my men.


CORNWALLIS: Arrange the exchange.


MAJOR HALBERT: My lord.


MARTIN: Thank you sir.


MAJOR HALBERT: One of our captured officers, my lord.


CORNWALLIS: My reputation suffers because of your incompetence 8! That man insults me!


TAVINGTON: Quite impressive for a farmer with a pitchfork, wouldn't you say?


CORNWALLIS: I want you to find that man. I want you to capture him.


TAVINGTON: The man has the loyalty 9 of the people. They protect him. Protect his family. Protect the families of his men. I can capture him for you. But to do so requires the use of tactics that are somewhat… what was the word your lordship used? "Brutal 10", I think.


CORNWALLIS: Go on.


TAVINGTON: I am preparing to do what is necessary. I alone will assume the full mantle 11 of responsibility for my actions free of the chain of command rendering 12 you blameless. However, if I do this, you and I both know that I can never return to England with honor. What, I wonder, is to become of me?


CORNWALLIS: When this war is over here in the colonies, the new aristocracy will be landowners.


TAVINGTON: Tell me about Ohio.


PRIVATE: Make way .


TAVINGTON: As you were. Wilkins. A plantation 13 seven miles from Wakefield, on the Santee, east of Black Swamp. Who lived there?


WILKINS: Benjamin Martin.


BORDON: He is the ghost.


TAVINGTON: What do you know about him?


WILKINS: Hell , everything. I could tell you the size of his boot.

人物:Charles Cornwallis & William Tavington (Banastre Tarleton)


1. Charles Cornwallis, 1st Marquess, 1738-1805, English general and statesman.


He was commissioned an ensign in the British army in 1756 and saw service in Europe in the Seven Years War. As a member of Parliament (which he entered in 1760), he opposed the tax measures that helped bring on the American Revolution. When the war came, however, he placed himself at the king's service and was sent (1776) to America. He served under Gen. William Howe at the battle of Long Island, in the New Jersey 15 campaigns, and at the battle of Brandywine, acquitting 16 himself with credit in all the engagements. In 1778, Cornwallis became second in command to Sir Henry Clinton, British commander in America. Two years later Cornwallis began the fateful Carolina campaign, which led directly to the Yorktown campaign and the major British defeat that in 1781 ended the fighting. Cornwallis was not held responsible for the disaster and in 1786 became governor-general of India. There he reformed the civil service and the judiciary and distinguished 17 himself in the campaigns against Tippoo Sahib of Mysore. He was created a marquess in 1792 and returned to England in 1794. In 1798, Cornwallis was sent to Ireland as viceroy and commander in chief, and he was stern in repressing the rebellion there in the same year. He worked to achieve the Act of Union (1800), which initiated 18 the unhappy experiment of uniting the Irish and British parliaments, but he resigned (1801) with William Pitt when George III refused to accept Catholic Emancipation 19. Cornwallis was then commissioned British minister plenipotentiary and helped to draw up the Treaty of Amiens (1802), which temporarily halted the war with Napoleonic France. In 1805 he was again appointed governor-general of India, but he died two months after his arrival there.


2. William Tavington

Colonel William Tavington is based on Lt. Colonel Banastre Tarleton.










Lieutenant-Colonel Banastre Tarleton by Sir Joshua Reynolds






The notable successes of Sir Banastre Tarleton (1754-1833), English cavalry 20 officer during the American Revolution, earned him the sobriquet 21 "Bloody 22 Tarleton."


Banastre Tarleton was the son of a wealthy Liverpool merchant, a sometime mayor of the city. After attending Oxford 23, young Tarleton entered the King's Dragoon Guards in 1775. He volunteered for service in the American colonies and gained his first military experience in Henry Clinton's unsuccessful venture against Charleston, S.C., in June 1776. Tarleton participated in the New York, Philadelphia, and Monmouth campaigns and was a member of the small party that captured American general Charles Lee in late 1776.


Accompanying Clinton on his second expedition against Charleston in 1780, Tarleton demonstrated his ability as commander of light infantry 24 and dragoons. In a number of engagements he sometimes annihilated 25 the opposition 26 at little loss to his own men. After the bloody battle at Waxhaws, S.C., in May, Tarleton was regarded by the Revolutionaries as bloodthirsty and merciless. His reputation was largely a consequence of his tactics - usually a rapid cavalry charge followed by the energetic use of sabers and bayonets - and their impact upon the often poorly trained Americans.


Tarleton helped rout 27 Horatio Gates's army at Camden, S.C., in August 1780 and surprised and destroyed the mixed forces of Thomas Sumter at Fishing Creek 28. Tarleton's defeat at Cowpens, S.C., in January 1781 materially weakened British forces in the South and raised rebel morale 29 and encouraged resistance to the British. Subsequently, he won minor 30 engagements and led a spectacular raid deep into Virginia in July. But, as he admitted, the results of this raid did not compensate 31 for the loss of men and horses. He served with Lord Cornwallis in the Yorktown campaign, and their forces surrendered in October.


After being paroled, Tarleton returned to England in 1782. He served (with one year's exception) as a Liverpool member of the House of Commons from 1790 to 1812. Sometimes active in the army, he advanced gradually to become full general in 1812. He received a baronetcy in 1815.


Tarleton was involved with the actress Mary Robinson, former mistress of the Prince of Wales (the future George IV), for many years. He later married an illegitimate daughter of the Duke of Ancaster. Tarleton died on Jan. 25, 1833, in Leintwardine, Shropshire.


A historian of the American Revolution wrote of Tarleton: "As a leader of cavalry, he was unmatched on either side for alertness and rapidity of movement, dash, daring and vigor 32 of attack."


Tarleton never had a face-to-face with any of the militia 33 leaders as he does with Martin in the movie.
