for me.

00:36:52.586 --> 00:36:54.630
And I made
a promise to the family...

I gave them my word.

anyone about our visitor.

She knows.

00:38:18.839 --> 00:38:20.716
- Can we trust her?
- She's our daughter.

- She's a child!
- Rosa.

He looks like death.

00:38:32.353 --> 00:38:34.814
He's probably forgotten
what food tastes like.

00:38:34.980 --> 00:38:36.207
What are we
going to feed him on?

00:38:36.232 --> 00:38:37.833

to feed ourselves!

would understand.

- I owe his family everything.
- I know.

01:54:30.490 --> 01:54:33.034
<i>Dark and formidable.</i>

01:54:33.201 --> 01:54:37.455
<i>Unfortunately, I'm far more
ordinary and commonplace.</i>

01:54:39.415 --> 01:54:43.336
<i>No one intended to destroy
a street named after Heaven.</i>

01:54:44.087 --> 01:54:46.589
<i>It was a misread on a map.</i>

01:54:46.756 --> 01:54:49.092
<i>No sirens that evening.</i>

01:54:50.426 --> 01:54:52.804
<i>First were Rudy's brothers.</i>

01:54:56.599 --> 01:54:59.143
<i>I read their simple dreams.</i>

01:55:03.356 --> 01:55:05.900
<i>Then, I kissed his mother.</i>

01:55:08.486 --> 01:55:12.407
<i>And stole the meanness
from Franz Deutscher's heart.</i>

01:55:17.537 --> 01:55:20.289
<i>Rosa, I caught mid-snore.</i>

01:55:21.082 --> 01:55:24.544
<i>I could swear I heard
her call me a Saukerl.</i>

01:55:24.710 --> 01:55:30.383
<i>Then I felt her regrets for not
sharing more of her very big heart.</i>

01:55:31.259 --> 01:55:36.222
<i>As for Hans, his soul was
lighter than a child's.</i>

01:55:36.556 --> 01:55:40.476
<i>I felt his itch for one last
tune on his accordion...</i>

01:55:41.060 --> 01:55:43.521
<i>and heard his final thought...</i>

01:55:45.440 --> 01:55:47.108
<i>"Liesel."</i>

01:56:34.113 --> 01:56:35.573
(CHORD PLAYING)

01:56:40.244 --> 01:56:41.537
Over here!

01:56:47.502 --> 01:56:49.045
Just over.

01:56:57.136 --> 01:56:58.179
Your hand.

01:57:11.067 --> 01:57:13.319
Mama? Papa?

01:57:51.274 --> 01:57:52.608
Papa?

01:57:58.406 --> 01:57:59.740
Papa.

01:58:26.058 --> 01:58:27.310
Rudy?

01:58:42.742 --> 01:58:44.702
(WEAKLY)
<i>Saumensch.</i>

01:58:46.037 --> 01:58:47.204
Liesel.

01:58:47.455 --> 01:58:48.706
(SHUSHES)

01:58:51.792 --> 01:58:53.002
I need to tell you...

01:58:53.169 --> 01:58:54.629
Don't speak.

01:58:55.504 --> 01:58:57.381
I need to say it.

01:59:01.886 --> 01:59:03.054
I...

01:59:07.266 --> 01:59:08.434
Rudy?

01:59:10.061 --> 01:59:11.228
Rudy, <i>nein.</i>

01:59:12.271 --> 01:59:13.731
Rudy, wake up.

01:59:14.565 --> 01:59:15.941
Rudy, <i>nein!</i>

01:59:16.108 --> 01:59:18.778
Wake up, Rudy!
Rudy, wake up!

01:59:19.570 --> 01:59:21.113
Rudy, kiss me.

01:59:26.744 --> 01:59:31.290
<i>NARRATOR: Rudy, his soul
just rolled into my arms.</i>

02:00:49.076 --> 02:00:53.539
<i>In my job, I am always finding
humans at their best...</i>

02:00:53.998 --> 02:00:55.916
<i>and their worst.</i>

02:00:56.083 --> 02:00:59.378
<i>I see their ugliness,
and their beauty...</i>

02:00:59.920 --> 02:01:03.924
<i>and I wonder how the
same thing can be both.</i>

02:01:22.985 --> 02:01:24.236
(GRUNTS)

02:01:56.685 --> 02:01:57.728
Liesel!

02:02:15.913 --> 02:02:17.456
(HORNS HONKING)

02:02:41.689 --> 02:02:43.107
(DOOR OPENING)

02:03:00.666 --> 02:03:01.917
Max!

02:03:14.638 --> 02:03:17.683
<i>NARRATOR:
I have seen a great many things.</i>

02:03:17.850 --> 02:03:21.186
<i>I've attended all the
world's worst disasters...</i>

02:03:21.353 --> 02:03:24.315
<i>and worked for
the greatest of villains.</i>

02:03:24.899 --> 02:03:27.902
<i>And I've seen
the greatest wonders.</i>

02:03:28.235 --> 02:03:31.071
<i>But it's still
like I said it was.</i>

02:03:31.238 --> 02:03:33.949
<i>No one lives forever.</i>

02:03:42.124 --> 02:03:45.127
<i>When I finally
came for Liesel...</i>

02:03:45.294 --> 02:03:47.855
<i>I took selfish pleasure
in the knowledge</i>

02:03:47.880 --> 02:03:51.383
<i>that she had lived
her 90 years so wisely.</i>

02:03:58.265 --> 02:04:02.394
<i>By then, her stories
had touched many souls.</i>

02:04:02.561 --> 02:04:05.689
<i>Some of whom I came
to know in passing.</i>

02:04:11.362 --> 02:04:16.533
<i>Max, whose friendship lasted
almost as long as Liesel.</i>

02:04:17.409 --> 02:04:19.036
<i>Almost.</i>

02:04:21.956 --> 02:04:23.999
<i>In her final thoughts...</i>

02:04:24.166 --> 02:04:28.545
<i>she saw the long list of lives
that merged with hers.</i>

02:04:29.296 --> 02:04:30.798
<i>Her three children.</i>

02:04:30.965 --> 02:04:32.883
<i>Her grandchildren.</i>

02:04:33.050 --> 02:04:35.094
<i>Her husband.</i>

02:04:35.678 --> 02:04:38.305
<i>Among them, lit like lanterns...</i>

02:04:38.472 --> 02:04:40.724
<i>were Hans and Rosa...</i>

02:04:40.891 --> 02:04:42.267
<i>her brother...</i>

02:04:42.434 --> 02:04:47.481
<i>and the boy whose hair remained
the color of lemons forever.</i>

02:04:50.150 --> 02:04:51.961
<i>I wanted to tell the book thief</i>

02:04:51.986 --> 02:04:53.696
<i>she was one of the few souls...</i>

02:04:53.862 --> 02:04:57.700
<i>that made me wonder
what it was to live.</i>

02:04:58.575 --> 02:05:01.870
<i>But in the end,
there were no words.</i>

02:05:02.037 --> 02:05:03.789
<i>Only peace.</i>

02:05:04.832 --> 02:05:07.876
<i>The only truth I truly know...</i>

02:05:08.043 --> 02:05:12.673
<i>is that I am haunted by humans.</i>

02:05:15.043 --> 02:05:35.673
