Quotes 

• 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] 

• Alexei : God help me.

  Tsarina Alexandra : He will... he will.

• 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]
