- Tsar Nicholas II: [to Alexandra] Smile. I never see you smile. Do you remember the little cottage we stayed in when we visited your family in Germany? And the picnics we used to have, and the songs we sang under the chestnut trees?
- Tsarina Alexandra: What in the world made you think of that?
- Tsar Nicholas II: And how those fisherman splashed us with their oars and didn't know who we were. We were soaked all over. And how we never ever wanted to leave... we are locked in, the key has been lost and now we must stay there forever.
- [they kiss]
- Grigori Rasputin: [at dinner] As I was walking by the forest I heard this strange grunting. I went among the trees and saw two monks, naked as nature, one of them behind the other...
- Grigori Rasputin: The sea brings comfort, and the waves they talk. The sunshines on the water as it gently rises. You can see the face of God when you look at the sun. Your soul forgets everything as you wake from the dreams of life's worries. For the joy lifts your heart, and your soul sees the wisdom of life, and beauty. Indescribable beauty. Is the pain gone?
- Alexei: Yes.
- Grigori Rasputin: A morsel of bread is more precious to man than a mountain of diamonds and gold, amen.
- Grigori Rasputin: You'll always fail because your soul is dead.
- Dr. Botkin: I have performed many autopsies in my time, but I've never located a soul.
- Grigori Rasputin: How many memories or emotions have you found?
- Alexei: [to his mother] I'll always love you more than anyone, and you'll always love me more than anyone.
- Yurovsky: [in the basement] We are going to take your picture.
- Tsar Nicholas II: Why?
- Yurovsky: There are rumors in Moscow that you are all dead. Over there.
- Tsarina Alexandra: Can we at least have some chairs?
- Yurovsky: Chairs.
- [two chairs are brought in]
- Yurovsky: [executioners enter the room] For crimes against Russia the Ural Soviet has hereby sentence you to death. Your life is finished.
- Tsar Nicholas II: *What?*
- [shooting begins]
