00:00John!

00:28John!

00:29Come on!

00:41Come on, you're keeping Jack waiting.

00:57All right.

00:59He's back.

01:09This is your day, Jack.

01:10You're the pride of your family.

01:20Good luck.

01:21Thanks, Phil.

01:29Good luck.

01:30Good luck.

01:31Good luck.

01:32Good luck.

01:33Good luck.

01:34Welcome, Jack.

01:35It's a great day.

01:36Good luck.

01:46Good luck.

01:47Good luck.

01:49Good luck.

04:20Why do I have to be capped?

04:31Everyone's capped when they come of age.

04:34But why?

04:36Don't you want to grow up and leave school to work with your father?

04:42Will, you don't think they'd hurt us, surely?

04:45It's just that...

04:46I don't understand.

04:48I don't understand.

04:48You will.

04:49Now, take this food to the vagrant's den and be careful.

04:53Just leave it and come straight back.

04:55Hurry up.

04:57You want to be there when Jack gets back?

04:58I'll be glad to be a man.

05:05Oh, me too.

05:07No more school.

05:09You'll work at the mill with your father.

05:12So will you, if you want.

05:15You sometimes feel afraid of it.

05:25I mean, what do you think?

05:29Think about the day we'll be capped.

05:33I knew you were scared.

05:35I never said that.

05:38Anyway, next year there'll be you and me and the two girls from the Willow Farm.

05:43What's there to be scared about?

05:44It doesn't scare me, unless I became a vagrant like them.

06:08Capping works with most people.

06:09Over near Wilmstoke.

06:12A vagrant took a boy away.

06:14Who said?

06:15Mrs. Downs.

06:17She said they'd trap you and murder you.

06:21I don't believe that.

06:32Mr. Hopkins says all vagrants are mad.

06:40Vagrants are stupid.

06:41You're not allowed.

06:42Pass the stone.

06:43So you'd better not try it.

06:44Come on, Wil.

06:46Come on, Wil.

06:48My name is Ozymandias.

06:51I'm king of all this land.

06:53Look on me.

07:02Wil.

07:03Wil.

07:05Wil.

07:07Mo.

07:07Wil.

07:11Wil.

11:37Where are you going?

11:39I'm going to find Jack.

12:51Are you alone, Will?

12:52Sure.

12:57Where are you going to?

12:58Where are you going to?

12:59The tomb.

13:00Who else knows about this tomb?

13:01Jack.

13:02My friend Jack.

13:03Where is he?

13:05Working.

13:06You're expecting him here?

13:07No.

13:09Yesterday was his capping day.

13:14You live in the village?

13:17Yes.

13:18Where in the village?

13:19The mill.

13:20The mill.

13:21Will Parker, is it?

13:22How many of you?

13:23How do you know?

13:24How many?

13:25Your mother, father, my cousin.

13:27This cousin?

13:28Henry.

13:29You saw him with me.

13:30Let me go.

13:31How'd you know my name?

13:32I'm a vagrant, Will.

13:33You know the stories about vagrants.

13:34We're madmen, aren't we?

13:35We know things other men don't.

13:38Yesterday your cousin called you, Will.

13:40And the Parker family have been milling corn here for over a hundred years.

13:44Please, will you show me the two?

13:46I'll be late home.

13:47I don't think Will Parker's the sort of boy who'd bother too much about that.

13:50I don't usually make mistakes in those I choose.

14:16Jack won't ever come here again.

14:23Once that cap goes on, out go other things.

14:26What other things?

14:28A sense of wonder, curiosity, feelings of aggression and rebellion.

14:37No.

14:38Nobody who has ever been capped by a tripod would find much of interest either.

14:57You don't like the idea you've been capped, will you?

15:00What they did to Jack.

15:02It's not right.

15:04Has he complained?

15:05Oh, nobody ever complains.

15:07I mean, look at Ann Digger.

15:09She was a girl at school who painted wonderful pictures.

15:12Really wonderful.

15:13They made me feel...

15:15I don't know.

15:16Now she's been capped.

15:18She never paints.

15:22I watched you yesterday at the feast.

15:24You were the only one not having a good time.

15:26How could you watch me?

15:31Put that into your eyes.

15:33Take a look outside.

15:34Men made these, Will Parker.

15:36And cities.

15:37Cities over the sea.

15:38And flying machines to cross the sea.

15:42But you'll only say I'm mad.

15:45You are mad.

15:46You are mad.

15:47Yet I imagine you and Jack must have often wondered what life was like before the tripods.

15:50Perhaps.

15:51About a hundred years ago.

15:53Not long.

15:54When the tripods first appeared.

15:55When the tripods first appeared.

15:56They destroyed old cities.

15:57Not long.

15:58Not long.

15:59Not long.

16:00Not long.

16:01Not long.

16:02Not long.

16:03Not long.

16:04Not long.

16:05Not long.

16:06Not long.

16:07Not long.

16:08Not long.

16:15Perhaps.

16:17About a hundred years ago, not long.

16:20When the tripods first appeared, they destroyed old cities.

16:26Millions of people were killed or starved.

16:30And those that were left, the tripods capped.

16:34Oh, after a generation or two, matters were very much as they are now.

16:38People living quiet lives, free from wars.

16:42Well looked after by the tripods. Life is good. We thank the tripods.

16:48But you're afraid of being capped.

16:51But...

16:54How can you fight a tripod?

16:56By using your wits.

16:58How do you know all this, eh?

17:00You're just a stupid vagrant, and everybody knows that...

17:12Well, the cap's quite genuine.

17:21Came from a dead man.

17:24That's my passport to vagrancy and unlimited travel.

17:28Searching for boys like you.

17:30Uncapped.

17:32Not afraid to ask questions.

17:34Boys with spirit.

17:36And there are more of you than you imagine.

17:39Listen, Walpock.

17:43There is no land in this whole world without tripods.

17:47But there is a place where men are free.

17:49Waiting for sufficient numbers and power to rid the world of tripods.

17:53Can you believe this?

17:56Where is this place?

17:57We call it the White Mountain.

18:02Will you take me there?

18:04Well, I've got weeks of work to do yet before I go back to the mountains.

18:07But...

18:08Yes.

18:09I think you should go.

18:11Listen, Will.

18:12I do you no favours.

18:14This place is a long way from here.

18:16Very few complete the journey.

18:18Think carefully.

18:27I won't be capped.

18:52Obstinacy.

18:54Good.

18:55I've always thought courage overrated.

18:58Do you know five ways on the south road?

19:01Meet me there tomorrow morning at five o'clock.

19:04Dawn's at six.

19:05I'll wait until seven.

19:07Keep that as a token of trust.

19:10Maybe I won't come.

19:12Then I'll have lost my watch.

19:14Wasted my time.

19:15And you'll live a life of growing fear and regret until you're capped.

19:22Look.

19:24I left friends and family, too.

19:27But remember, they're not your friends.

19:29Your family.

19:30They belong to each and every tripod, as you will surely do if you stay here.

19:40Men made these, Will Parker.

19:42I'll wait until seven.

19:50I'll wait until seven.

19:54I'm take care of first.

19:55I'll wait until seven.

20:00You, too.

20:02See, where do you grow?

20:04I don't know.

20:34I knew you were up to skipping.

20:53Where are you going?

20:54Nowhere.

20:56You're going to tell me everything or I wake Uncle John.

21:00I mean it.

21:01The mill room then.

21:05Not here.

21:06You can't believe what a vagrant says.

21:09It wasn't a vagrant.

21:10I keep telling you.

21:11It was a false cap.

21:12I don't know how, but it was.

21:17White mountains.

21:19There's no such place.

21:20I've told you everything I know.

21:22I think there's a lot you haven't told me.

21:27There's no such place.

21:28No such place.

21:30Man-made this, Henry.

21:34Men like you and me.

21:38It's man-made, Henry.

21:40Henry, listen.

21:42Henry, listen. I've got to be somewhere. Where?

21:45I'm not saying, but it's a good few miles and I haven't got much time.

21:48You'll be seen. Henry, please, I've got to go.

21:51But why? Because I can't stay here any longer.

21:57I'm not going to let them cap me, Henry.

22:00I'm not afraid of the capping itself.

22:03Whatever I'll become once it's done. It's wrong, Henry.

22:07You've seen Jackson's, haven't you?

22:10I don't know. I'm old enough to think for myself now.

22:14I like that. I want that.

22:17There's a lot of things I want to do and find out about.

22:20But in 12 months, it'll be too late.

22:23All I'll be is a puppet for the tripods for the rest of my life.

22:28Henry, please, I've got to go. All right. But I'm coming too.

22:32But you can't. Why not?

22:35Two's dangerous. He only asked me.

22:38Look, I don't much like the idea of being capped either.

22:41So there's no reason why I shouldn't come to these loony mountains of yours.

22:45But we always fight. We like fighting.

22:48Well, there's nothing for me here.

22:51All right. We don't see eye to eye.

22:54That doesn't matter.

22:56You're the only friend I've got.

22:59I'd rather be arguing with you all day on our way to these mountains, if they exist.

23:04They must do.

23:09Did he give you that clunk?

23:11Sure he trusted me.

23:14You'd better get started, then.

23:17I'll get some more food.

23:20Right.

23:21Right.

23:22Right.

23:23Right.

23:24Right.

23:25Right.

23:26Right.

23:27Right.

23:29Right.

23:30Right.

23:31Right.

23:32And so...

23:33Right.

23:34Right.

23:35What a while.

23:36Right.

23:37Right.

23:38Oh, my.

23:38Yeah, right.

23:39Right.

23:40Right.

23:41Right.

23:42Right.

23:43Right.

23:44You say, all of theужers have been mocked,

23:45right.

23:46Right, right.
