The last scene in the movie Joshua
August 30, 2019 8:16 PM Subscribe
I watched the movie Joshua on Prime. It has no sub titles. I am hard of hearing. I would like to know what was said between Joshua and the Pope in the final scene of that movie? A great movie by the way.
Assuming you mean the 2002 film, I found an English subtitle file at https://subtitlebank.net/joshua-english-srt-4577252/
I downloaded a zipfile which unzipped an .srt file, which is a standard sub format. If you open that file with a text editor you can read the text of the subtitles that would appear on the screen, interspersed with timestamps for when the words are to appear. It's a clunky format and a headache to try to read plain, but it should contain the information you seek.
I've never seen the film so I can't begin to guess from the file contents itself what parts might be the final scene you're looking for. You may have to crossreference the approximate timestamps from the Prime stream.
On preview, supercres has the same idea as I.

I am on Prime and it has subtitles if you click on the little text box thing on the upper right. Maybe a region thing? Nevertheless, here is a rough transcription: "I brought you a gift, these are some tools I work with." "Ah yes, we have much work to be done. Sit." "I wanted to thank you for the pledge you made as a child." "My pledge?" "When your sister was ill. She was near ill. You sent the entire night.. praying, and the next morning she was well, and you ... pledged your life to God." "Why?" "Peter. Don't you know me? The world has become such a frightening place.. emptiness.. makes it impossible to love." "It's so overwhelming. What do I do?" "Remind them that I love them, that I died for them... that's the message, it hasn't changed... tell them Peter, tell them." *Tony Goldwyn poof*

On TV, not sure what system you're using but there is usually a way to get to the subtitles. On Roku it is the asterisk button on the remote.
