Niña! Niña!

Dax!

Dax!

Dax!

The hacienda of Jaime Xenos,
attorney at law.

A traitor.

You'll find
all his family there.

Wife, Vera Xenos,

daughter, Teresa Xenos,
age 16,

son, Dax Xenos,

age 10.

They're all traitors.

You understand?

I understand, Col. Gutiérrez.

Arriba!

Quickly, Dax. Come.

They shot Niña.
They shot Niña.

Come, close the gate.

Come on.

Soldiers. Quick,
bolt the windows and doors.

Everybody
in the cellar.

Come on.

Go!

Hurry! Hurry!

But, Mama...

Here's Teresa.

Close the door.
Come on.

Come on, Mama.

Get down!

Now be quiet.

Where's papa?

He'll come.
Just be quiet, he'll come.

Don't be afraid,
I am here.

Be quiet.
They'll kill us.

Mama!

Animal!

Bastardo!

Dax! Run.

For god's sake, run!
Find papa!

Dax!

Dax!

The chickens are dead.

Where's your mother?

And my dog, Niña.

Your mother, boy.

She is dead.

All are dead.

Vera.

Vera.

It's all safe now.
Papa's here.

It is my duty
to read to you the
following pronouncement.

"The revolutionary tribunal

"for the
provisional government
of the Republic of Corteguay,

"established on
the 21st day of March,

"1945,

"under the presidency
of his excellency,

"Gen. Rojo,

"charged with crimes,

"with crimes against..."

Guilty.

Death.

Here, Jaime,

your wife, your daughter.

I am not an executioner.

Mmm-hmm.

Let me kill them.

No!

I will.

He's a child.

There are no children
in war, only men.

Come here, boy.

Now, look at them.

Now say, "For Corteguay,

"for my mother,
for my sister,
for Corteguay."

"For my mother,
for my sister,
for Corteguay."

Gutiérrez!

Gutiérrez
and more of his dogs.
Many more.

We ride!

The boy?

To my family
in the mountains.

Fat Cat!

Take the boy to my hacienda.

Be brave, Dax.

I am not a child anymore.

No. You are not
a child anymore.

Bless you, my son.

Take care of my boy.

With my life, Señor.

Thank you.

Come.

Condor, we ride!

Why are you always looking?

We must be careful.

We do not want to
meet that man Gutiérrez.

This man, Gutiérrez,
did he kill my mother
and my sister?

Yes.

Then, one day,
I shall kill him.

Are you hungry?

No.

One of the women of the farm
give me the breakfast.

She was crying.

Yeah, women always cry.

I don't cry.

Cry? You?

You are a man.

Men do not cry.

Papa cried
at the graveside.

I cried, too.

Well, that was permissible.

Even I cried,

but now we are
men again. Huh?

Yes.

Sometimes
it is not always easy
being a man.

But come, you follow me.

I will lead you safely
through the mountains.

Fat Cat.
It's a great day.

Why?

The general
rides on Curatu.

Everywhere
the people are with us.

Soon no more revolutions
because the way will be ours.

Good. Good.

Dax.

Oh, Dax.

Yes, Dona Maria.
His sister and mama...

Come here.

Poor little boy.

This is my son, Roberto.

Amparo, this is Dax.

Señor Xenos' son.

You may kiss me.

Amparo,
show Dax to his room

and then you both
can play until dinner.

Play?

Games.

Games?

I don't play games.

Petrucha says
you've got rubber legs.

Better than a wooden head.

What are you doing?

I'm watching for Gutiérrez.

Whoo, hoo!

It's Fat Cat.

What are they doing?

Playing.

What are they doing now?

I suppose he's raping her.

Raping?

He rapes her
and she rapes him.

Let's do it.

No. You are too young.

And I think I have to
kill you afterwards.

Fat Cat!

Fat Cat!

Hurry! Come on.

Mama!

Mama!

Amparo!

Dax! Dax!

Dax!

I want mama.

Mama. Where is my mama?

Come on.

Amparo!

Amp...

Mama!

Mama!

What are they doing to mama?

Nothing. Don't look.

They're all dead,
Col. Gutiérrez.

Gutiérrez.

So much for the traitor,
diablo Rojo.

The rebels are
advancing on Curatu.

Collect your men.

We must go.

I want Mama and Roberto.

We must go to Curatu.

Come on.

Soldiers.

Petrucha.

Petrucha is dead.

We must bury her.

God keep petrucha,

mama and Roberto.

Come to bed.

But we are not married.

All right, I marry you.

But now we go to sleep.

Is that all there is?

That's all.

Go to sleep.

Curatu.

Viva!

Viva Rojo!

Viva Rojo!

Rojo! Rojo!

Dax!

Dax!

Dax!

Dax!

Dax!

Amparo! Dax!

Are you all right?

Yes.

Oh, I thought
you were both dead.

Why aren't you
in the palace?

Well, how could I
have faced them?

Huh?

Come, I will take you
to your fathers.

Right.

Come.

My dear friends,

now we will build
a new Corteguay
for the people of Corteguay.

Food for all,
justice for all,
peace for all.

Yes.

But at what cost?

Daddy!
Dax.

Amparo. My child.

Fat Cat,
you didn't die.

I do not think so, Señor.

How did you escape
the massacre?

Oh, I...

He hid us from the soldiers,
and walked us
all the way here.

Oh, no, no, it...

And he killed 2 men
with his bare hands,

and there was
snakes and scorpions
and he saved us from them.

We stole chickens, Papa,
we ate grass.

Well, I could not
get word to you.

They might have been caught.

In that case
I would have had you shot.

Of course, General.

Thank you, Fat Cat.

Get them to bed,
as soon as possible.

Si, Señor.

This time you took me safely
through the mountains,

I will never forget that.

How do you feel, Son?

There are great plans
ahead, Dax.

We are going
to Europe, to Italy.

I'm to be ambassador
of Corteguay in Rome.

And Fat Cat?

He'll come, too.

And Col. Gutiérrez,

when can I kill him?

Dax, the fighting's over.

There will be
no more violence.

I can't forget
what he did.

You must.

We have to think now

only of Corteguay
as it will be.

When you come back,
you won't be a boy anymore.

You'll be a man.

Now, good night, Dax.

And dream of Rome.

Good night, Papa.

What are you doing here?

I listened.
You're going away.

Yeah,
I'm going away forever.

No, you're not.

You'll come back
and I'll marry you properly.

I'm never going
to marry anyone.

I don't want a wife
and family

because the soldiers
will come and kill them.

Señor Xenos?

Yes.

We've been expecting you.
My name is Marcel Campion.

I'm the senior clerk here.

Please.

Signor Barone,

his excellency Jaime Xenos,
our new ambassador.

Your excellency,
il Barone De Coyne,

president of
the De Coyne Bank.

My son, Dax.

I know of all you've done
for my country, Barone.

I'm deeply grateful.

No need, Señor.

My family haven't achieved
an international reputation
as bankers

being philanthropic.

Here in Italy,
the De Coyne bank

invested money in Corteguay
as a matter of good business.

There are times
when one wonders, of course.

Your predecessor
was frightened,
your excellency, and greedy.

There is nothing left.

No funds?

The De Coyne bank
has confidence in
your new regime, Señor.

It would be a breach of faith
to withdraw our support now.

You are very kind.

Have you any plans
for your son's schooling?

I hadn't thought.

Leave it to me then.

He shall go to
the institute Della Rocca
with my son.

I will make
all the arrangements.

I am overwhelmed.

Come and see me tomorrow.

We'll discuss
the future of your son
and of Corteguay.

Thank you.

You'll continue
to work here, Campion,
and keep me informed.

Unless I am offered
something better.

This will encourage you
to stay, at least for
the time being.

Of course, signor Barone,
thank you.

Robert.

How are you?

Robert, this is Dax.
Look after him.

Hello there, Robert.

Hello, Sergei.

Prince Paul Nikovitch,
Señor Xenos.

How do you do?
How do you do?

Sergei Nikovitch,
a friend of Robert's.

Can we go now, Father?

Of course. Run along.

Goodbye, Father.

Goodbye, Father.

Fat Cat.

But why do I have
to fight any of you?

To see whose room you share.

If you win,
you could choose
who you like.

All right then,
I'll fight you.

Sergei wins all his fights.

Why not fight me?
I always lose.

Thanks.
But I have
chosen already.

Boxing or free-for-all?

Free-for-all.

Come on!
Come on!

Sergei!

Sergei!

Sergei!

I choose you.
For my roommate.

Bravo!

Sergei, take them in.

Robert, take them out.

Dax doesn't play polo,

he wages war.

Isn't he wonderful, Father?

Bravo!

Come on,
leave me alone.

Hello, Father.

Would you like champagne?

Sergei.

Hey, Señor, Dax.

Thank you, Robert.

Stop it.

Did you enjoy the match?

You play a hard game.

I play to win.

Dax,
I have to go to Corteguay.

For long?

Two or three
weeks perhaps.

I'll come with you.

Not this time.
Stay young as long
as you can.

Is there trouble
in Corteguay?

There are rumors.
I must see for myself.

You worry too much, Father.
You work too hard.

Oh. I love my country.

The revolution.

I live to see
its promises fulfilled.

A toast. To patriotism.

No.

To horses
and pretty girls. Huh?

Go, go,
and enjoy yourself.

Thank you.

Bye.

See you later.

I'll give you a drink.

My father is away.

Let's have a party
at the villa!

The last car at the villa,
the girl in it
must pay a forfeit.

Why do you drive so fast?

Are you afraid
I'll have to pay the forfeit
if you get there last?

I couldn't care less.
I drive to win.

Beautiful, isn't it?

Like a dream.

One doesn't always
have beautiful dreams.

Come and swim.

In five minutes
at the pool.

Yes.

Would you say

it's quite in character
to leave me at the polo field,

bring that girl back here
to my father's house,

and then in the morning
make love to me, too?

Why not?

Why you don't feel
a twinge of guilt

or of
old-fashioned remorse?

Why feel guilt or remorse
about love?

Love?

Well, about making love.

Love's just a word
to you, isn't it?

But the way
you behave can hurt.

I know bullets hurt.

Knives hurt.

And that's all?

You want me to apologize
for bringing that girl back?

No, that's not the point.

Then?

Well, I'd...
I'd like to know what it is
you really care about.

You see, it isn't girls.

You don't make love to girls,
you make love at them.

If I could understand
what you're saying.

Dax.

I love you.

If you could tell me
what it feels like

to love.

You will appreciate,
signor Barone,
I felt it my duty.

I don't wish
to cause trouble.

Dax.

You'll wake her.

Father?

Yes.

Sergei.

Sergei!

Where is your sister?

Is she here?

No. No,
she didn't come.

You disgrace me.

You disgrace the family.

Dax Xenos, Sergei,
the rest of them,

turning my house
into a brothel.

I'll give you a last chance.

Get rid of them.
All of them.

The whole pack.

Any more of this,
I am finished.

Your credit,
your allowance, finish.

Do you understand me?

You will speak of this
to no one, Campion.

You may trust me
implicitly, signor Barone.

You mentioned

you might find
a better position
for me in your bank.

From Monday
you'll be in charge
of the shipping department.

Thank you, signor Barone.

My dear Jaime,
welcome home.

An unexpected honor,
Señor Presidente.

For an unexpected visit.

How's Dax?

Oh, he lives his own life.

That one will always
make his own rules.

He's not afraid
to walk alone.

And Amparo, how is she?

She's well,

at a convent school
in the country.

But tell me
more about Dax.

He's mad about polo.

I think
he may play for Italy.

Viva Rojo!

Viva Rojo!

Viva!

The old palace of justice.

Now obsolete.

The new palace
of the president.

But there were
houses, streets,

the marketplace.

All swept away.

Now the Plaza del
Presidente Rojo.

The people voted unanimously
to give it my name.

Including the people
who lived there?

The people
have no gratitude.

I give them progress
and what do they do?

You heard that El Condor
is now against me?

El Condor?

But El Condor
was our friend.

No, Jaime.

Ask a man to be your friend
and he feels indebted to you.

I don't trust friends.
But enemies, real enemies,

I trust them implicitly.

Magnificent, huh?

Take this old man,
El Condor.

I know what he wants.

To destroy me.

If he tries,
he knows what I shall do.

We understand each other.
We're enemies.

There's no pretense,
but with a friend...

The cabinet room.

Magnificent, huh?

Was all the money
I begged for Corteguay
poured into this?

My dear friend,
we did not fight for this.

Our wives and children
did not die for this.

This is not worth one drop
of their precious blood.

I see you learned
nothing in Rome.

A nation's glory
is in its architecture.

Then build houses
for the people,
not palaces for yourself.

And how many houses
do you think
I could've built for them?

A few thousand
for some of the people.

No!

I built one palace
for all the people.

But you're here on holiday.
You need a rest.

How long do you
intend to stay?

I'm at your service,
Señor Presidente.

But I'd like to go
to my hacienda to
visit my wife's grave.

Of course.

El Condor.

Thank you for
coming, Jaime.

But nobody
knows you're here?

Nobody.

You've seen Rojo?

Yes.

Then you've seen the devil.

He's 10 times worse
than the last.

Palaces, roads,

guns, soldiers,

and the people starve.

I've seen them.

Have you seen the prisons,
the execution yards,

the bodies
rotting in the pits,
a feast for vultures?

I told the president
he was wrong.

You told him?

And you are wrong
to take up arms again.

Hasn't this poor country
seen enough of civil war?

Enough? No, not enough.

Are we women to be
beaten and oppressed?

There are legal ways.

There's only one way.

Have you forgotten
the things we once fought
for, Jaime Xenos?

We fight for justice
with justice.

You mustn't use
the weapons of tyranny
even against a tyrant.

How else
can you destroy him?

So long as
Rojo rules by force,

I will oppose him by force.

Sit down, Gutiérrez.

Thank you.

Well?

Friendship
is a wonderful thing,
Señor Presidente.

Friendship?

You're not my friend.

No indeed.

Just an old enemy.

Too useful not
to be employed.

Must you always
play games, Colonel?

I am naturally devious,
Señor Presidente.

However, you had a friend,
Jaime Xenos.

Had?

He's gone to see
another old friend.

They're talking,
reminiscing no doubt,

as old friends will.

What friend?

El Condor.

Jaime Xenos and El Condor.

Why do you
always bring bad news,
Gutiérrez?

A chief of security
never brings good news.

There's no gratitude,
Gutiérrez.

They envy me.

I who made
this country great.

They envy me,
my position in history.

Jaime Xenos and El Condor.

A bandit alone
is nothing but a bandit.

A bandit and a lawyer

is a revolution.

The honor
conferred on me
by El Presidente

in allowing me
to open the cable line
to Mirados

and be the first to cross
this great chasm
with his greetings.

El Presidente is
the head of our nation,

but the body, the hands,
the heart, and the soul
are our people,

and I take their greetings
to the people of Mirados
in the sure conviction

that we shall march together
to a bright future

of peace and prosperity.

Thank you.

Breathe in.

Good, you'll live.

Yes?

Just a minute.

God, 3:00.

Morning or afternoon?

Morning.

Fat Cat,
do you know
what time it is?

All right.

All right, I'll come.

When am I going
to see you again?

When I call you.

Fire!

I should have
gone with him.

He was the last.

Dax.

Don't you remember me?

We were children together.

Amparo.

So long ago,
but I don't forget.

Dax,

I loved him.

Tragedy.

Something no one
could have foreseen.

It might have
happened to me, you know,
I shall never forget that.

I feel

a responsibility to you.

You've always been
like a son to me.

Dax, your father gave
his life for Corteguay.

I want you
to take his place.

I'm not fit
to take his place.

That's not true.

You're a Corteguayan.
A Xenos.

I'm a Corteguayan
who lives in Rome.

A Xenos, yes,
the last of my
family and the least.

A man should
never condemn himself,

there are always others
who are willing
to do it for him.

Did your father
ever speak to you
of El Condor?

I know who you mean.

Once our comrade,
still a rebel.

I've tried everything
to make peace with him.

Offered him amnesty.

Dax,
now I want you to try.

Give him
anything else he wants.

A free pardon,
safe conduct for his men.

Food and medicine
for the women and children.

You're a Xenos,
he'll listen to you.

I'm not a politician,
Señor Xenos.

I'm only a simple murderer.

But this I do know.

I don't want my son
to spend the rest of his
life in these hills.

Hunted day and night.

El Presidente
guarantees peace.

You'll be a respected
citizen of Corteguay.

Once I had eight sons
and three daughters.

They're all dead now.

All but this one.

No one will be harmed.

El Presidente promised it.

These are Rojo's promises.

He asks you
to trust him, El Condor.

There will be no reprisals.

An honorable peace.

If you will guarantee
the safety of my son,

you personally,

swearing on
the soul of your father
and on the cross,

then I will accept
El Presidente's offer.

I swear it.

Very well then.

Tell Rojo
I'll meet him in Asiento

on the last day
of this month.

There will be no more
war between us.

My father's
very pleased with you.
You know that?

The question is what now?

You mean do you stay?

Do you want to?

I don't know.
I don't feel involved.

Come with me.

When you were a child,
you killed 7 men
with that gun.

I remember that.

I pleaded
with your father
to let me do it.

Like it or not, Dax,
you are involved.

All right.

I'll be involved
with the future,

but not the past.

The past has its
uses, too, you know.

No.

None.

Do you remember
when you dragged me,

complaining
across the mountains?

Yeah, I remember that.

And we slept in the forest?

And you made me marry you.

Yes.

And before that.

Before that
we sat in the reeds.

Fat Cat was in the stream
with one of the maids.

You asked me
what they were doing.

And I said "He rapes her."

"And she rapes him."

That's right.

We were very young.

Viva!

Viva, Rojo!

Viva El Condor!

Viva!

Viva El Condor!

El Condor!

Diablo Rojo.

I have come in response
to your request.

I accept your offer
of amnesty.

Let there be
peace between us.

In the name of Corteguay,
I pledge my faith.

In the name of Corteguay,
I hope you keep it.

You see,
I've kept my word.

Now Jose can go to school
and learn to behave
like a gentleman.

Well, at least he can learn
to read and write.

Come inside, my friend,
and have some champagne.

Give me the red wine
of Corteguay.

And keep that cat's piss
for the women.

I'm sure the good god
will be glad

to see his house put
to useful service again.

No!

No!

Gutiérrez.

Gutiérrez.

Gutiérrez!

Dax Xenos.

I have my orders.

He was a traitor.

I have no orders
to kill you.

But if I must,

I will.

Psst! Psst!

I heard guns firing.

You did this.

You!

No.

I didn't know.

You promised him!

And you lied!

Believe me,
I didn't know.

You lie!

Some day I shall
kill you for this.

Jose!

No.

Let him go.
Back to the mountains
where he'll be safe.

Gutiérrez,

explain Gutiérrez.

He was there
carrying out your orders.

No.

He said so.

Then he lied.

He lied, Dax,
and he shall answer for it.

He has answered,

to me.

I see.

Do you deny
he was working for you,

the man who killed
most of your family and mine?

You employed him.

Yes, I did.

And me?

Did you employ me, too?

To lie for you?
Betray for you?

A man must use
what weapons he can
to defend his country, Dax.

Treachery?

Treachery is a weapon.

You admit you used me?

I've loved you, Dax.

As a boy and as a man.

What is love but the use
of one person by another?

No.

No.

Then, for the love
of Corteguay.

Words.

Words with
no meaning to them.

I...

I trusted you.

I would have done...

I would have done
anything for you!

And you?

I leave...

I leave for Europe tomorrow.

Yes, go.

I order you to go.

And understand this, Dax.

That until you've learned
that evil and politics
must tolerate each other,

there's no place
for you here.

Please, Dax,
take me with you.

No.

Your place is here

with me.

Not anymore.

I've seen too much
suffering and misery.

And now this.

You are my daughter.

A daughter of the president.

You expect me
to take pride in that?

I expect nothing of you.

I order you to stay.
You stay.

And you go, Dax,

while you can.

Dax.

Such a small country,
and so much blood.

I should have brought
Amparo with me.

She was all I had left
of my childhood.

You know,

I have nothing now.

No money, nothing.

You are alive
and I am still here.

Yes.

And someday
when you are rich again,
you can come back.

To more bloodshed?

More misery?

To put an end to it.

There will come a day.

Do you think I care
about that patch of scrub?

Yes.

Yes, maybe I do.

But if I ever come back,
it won't be to help Rojo.

I'll have money.

I'll do anything
to get money.

Money and power,
and then I shall I come back.

Capt. Dax
reporting, sir.

What time do you call this?

I'm starving.
Is this all?

Uh, you've spilt wine
on my suit.

Our suit.

This chicken's over-cooked.

You're lucky
to get anything at all.

We had trouble
at the restaurant.

The baron stopped
Robert's credit.

How did you pay?

We didn't.
The girls did.

Good.

No, you don't seem
to realize.

My father has disowned me.
Now we're really broke.

How about your father?

I can try, but he's done
too much already.

He's not rich, you know.

Sergei.

Papa.

I am indeed privileged.

It's rare to see you.

Still scrawling away?

I'm still designing clothes.

Which never get made.

Not yet.

When I left Russia

I slaved
to give you the education
an aristocrat deserves,

but you don't even seem
able to make a success
of dress-making.

Designing.

Yes. Yes. yes.

If I had some...
Some capital, Papa...

No, no, no,
I don't want
money from you.

Nonsense. I never
see you unless you do.

Thank you.

I have to go now.
I'm on duty.

Duty is an older
coinage than money.

When I was
a young man at the
court of Czar Nicholas,

I learned
the meaning of both.

Yes, Papa.

There.

A title needs
a good uniform,
don't you think?

Yes, Papa.

Hello there.

Oh, hello, Marcel.

April.
Hi, Marcel.

You haven't met Dax.

Robert De Coyne. Sergei.

Hello.
April Stavronis.

How do you do?
How do you do?

April and I are engaged
to be married.

Married?

Since when?

Last night.
Congratulate us.

We do.
We do.

Congratulations.
Thank you.

You're a lucky man, Marcel.

I know that.

Darling,
will you give me
five minutes?

Yes. I have to go down
and change anyhow.

Well, I'll see you later.

Bye-bye.
Goodbye.

See you later.

My god, Marcel.
She's a dog.

But a rich dog.

You've heard of
Stavronis Munitions.

You should do
the same, my boy.

As a matter of fact,
that's why we asked you
to meet us, Marcel.

We are going into
business, all of us.

A dress salon.

What a good idea.

We'll start
with a fabulous show

in some ancient
roman setting.

Who's financing you?

That's where we need
your advice, Marcel.

All we need
is some capital
to get us started.

And what do you
offer as collateral?

Collateral?

As security against
the loss of the money
advanced to you.

In business there is
no such thing as a loan
without collateral.

There's your capital

and no collateral.

There are plenty more
like her in Rome.

Americans, tourist,
rich, lonely, bored.

I know of one or two
likely prospects.

I could introduce you.

Sergei?

It's disgusting.
I like it.

Dax?

Well...

Robert?

Look, I am sorry,
I don't think
this is for me.

Why?

Well, it's just that...

You don't mind, do you?

It's all right.

Well, that will cost you
33 and one-third percent
of anything you get.

15%.

25%.

Done!

Let's have a drink
to celebrate.

Four champagne cocktails.

And put them
on Miss Stavronis' bill.

Room 409.

A little kiss?

You're very handsome,
you know that?

Then we must be
the best-looking
couple in Rome.

Your husband is in business
in Chicago, Mrs. Erickson?

Yeah, he's a meat baron.

Sounds impressive.

It's disgusting.

Raw, red meat,
that's all he's
interested in.

Then we'll go to
a restaurant that serves
the best fish in Rome.

Wonderful.

You need some money?

If you like.

Thank you.

Enough?

Yes, for the taxi.

Oh, funny boy.

Sorry.

It's all right.

Thank you.

Good evening. Mrs. Hadley?

Yes. Yes, that's me.

You must be...

Uh, Dax Xenos.

Won't you come in?

Marcel has told me
all about you.

Has he?

Well, really,
it's just that I...

I don't know anyone
in Rome and...

You need someone
to show you the
sights and...

That's right.

I mean,
not the coliseum
and St. Peter's.

I'm not quite
as provincial as that.

I can see you are not.

Oh.

Maybe this whole thing's
a little ridiculous?

Why don't we have a drink
and then decide that?

All right.

Scotch?

Yes, please.

On the rocks?

Straight.

Straight.

Where do you
come from, Mrs. Hadley?

California.

My husband's in oil.

That must be very
uncomfortable for him.

Cheers.

Cheers.

You look five years
younger this morning.

That makes 15 years
in three days.

By the time I go home...

Oh, I don't want
to think about that.

Nor do I.

Do you mean that?

Yes. I mean it.

Then I'm happy again.

Good morning, Baron.
Nice to see you.

Indeed?

Allow me to introduce,

Il Barone De Coyne,
Mrs. Deborah Hadley.

Glad to meet you,
Baron.

Mrs. Hadley is
over here on vacation
from the States.

I hope you're enjoying
your visit, signora.

Indeed I am.
But who could not in Rome
on a day like this?

True. And now,
if you'll excuse us?

Baron, who is that man?

Pretty girl,
who is she?

He's nothing.

If you meet him again,
please ignore him.

He's a very dangerous man.

Sue Ann Daley.

They say before long
she's going to be

the richest girl
in the world.

Now, what would you
like to do this afternoon?

Only one more day.

Then we won't waste it.

I was never young
in America.

But you're going home.

To your family,
to things that
really matter to you.

How do you know
what matters to me?

I can't go back.

Of course you can.

You have to.

Don't make it
difficult for me, too.

All my married life,
there was no one else.

And now...

I've got a present
for you.

Thank you.

It's beautiful.

The most
beautiful cigarette case
I have ever possessed.

Thanks.

Thank you, thank you,
signore, signori.

I must tell you,
signore, signori,

that none of this
would have been
possible without

the generous assistance
of Mrs. Lafayette Erickson.

Mrs. Erickson?

And I must also thank
my friend and partner,

Dax Xenos,
who has worked so hard

and so enthusiastically
to make this show a success.

Dax?

Lastly, I would like
to thank Julius Caesar

for the loan of the hall.
Thank you.

I don't know what
you see in that young man.

If you ask me,
he's a goddamned fairy.

The wedding dress.
We'll buy it.

For the wedding of the year,
the bride must have
the dress of the year.

I'm sure
she can afford it.

I met a divine painter
in London,

and we put on
this show for him.

He was terrific,
he'd put a little
squiggle here...

Do you know Sue Ann Daley?

Only by sight.

My father's
one of her trustees.

We were friends
at school.

The way you are
lookin' at her,

you won't be friends
much longer.

Excuse me.

Hello.

Hello.

I'm Dax Xenos.

I know.

I'm told you're
the kind of person

who's only interested
in my money.

Is that true?

Of course.

A hideous girl like you,
what else could it be?

Anyway, I didn't say
I was interested.

Hello.

Is it a success?

Yes, I think so,
but nobody except Marcel
bought anything.

Oh, oh,
I'd like to buy.

Buy what, Miss Daley?

Everything.

Everything? The collection?

Everything
and the collection.

Well, thank you,
I'm honored and rich.

Thank you.

Who's that man
who keeps following you?

Big Dennis.

Detective?

Nanny.

Three weeks more.

Good evening, Baron.

Madame, sir.
You have a beautiful home.

You are too kind.

I have heard
so much about you.

As Miss Daley's trustees,

we are happy to welcome
her friends tonight.

But I'm not aware
that you were invited.

Thank you.
I'm delighted to be here.

Hello, Caroline.

Hello.

Congratulations, darling,
you look beautiful.

Oh, thank you.

Hi, Sue Ann.
Hello, Sue Ann.

Hi.

Sue Ann.

Yeah.

Hi.

Hello.

You look
wonderful tonight.

Thanks.

You know what?

For the first time
in my life,

I'm actually
refusing food.

Maybe for the first time
in your life, you're happy.

Maybe.

Uh-oh.

Big Dennis,
your time's running out,
you know.

Good evening.

I might rather miss him.

Suppose I get lonely?

I'll be here.

Will you?

Hello.

Let's talk about
my next collection.

Oh.
And dance.

Marriage suits you, April.

I'm very happy.

You should try it.

Oh, no,
thank you.

Marriage is one of
the few temptations
I've always resisted.

Why don't you let yourself
go for once and marry me?

Unfortunately, your father
doesn't approve of me.

You mean
he wouldn't keep you

in the style to which
you've become accustomed?

Possibly.

Happy birthday,
Sue Ann.

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday!

I'm free!

Tell me.

No, you tell me.

I love you.
What?

I love you.

Many happy returns!

As Miss Daley's trustees,

we will authorize
the payment of $400,000

and an allowance
of $4,000 a month,

both to take effect
after the wedding ceremony.

I don't really think
I could make Miss Daley

very happy on
a pittance like that.

Then what do you think
you should have?

When a man's wife
is heiress to $80 million,

he can't walk around
with pennies in his pocket.

What kind of an impression
would that make?

Would $500,000
and $5,000 a month
make a better impression?

Slightly.

If you multiply it by 2.

By 2.

Nonsense.

We are totally opposed
to this marriage, Xenos.

We know what you are.

And it's our
duty to protect Miss Daley
as far as we can.

$500,000 and $5,000 a month
is our last offer.

Well, that's a pity.

It looks so bad
for the heir

to one of the largest
fortunes in the world

to be a bastard.

Heir? What heir?

From Miss Daley's
gynecologist.

I'm sorry.

Now, now, take it easy.
He'll be here, I promise.

Well,
where is he then?

Damn him.
He's so late.

Where was he
last night?

The stag party went on
until breakfast, so...

This is really humiliating.

Well, it's the last time
he marries me.

I'm beginning
to feel hungry again.

No, no.

Oh, God.

Where have you been?

Come along,
will you?

Fat Cat.
Welcome back.

Signora.

Dax will be
so glad to see you.

He's missed you.

Sit down.

Where is he?

You've known Dax
most of his life,
haven't you?

Si, signora.

You don't think I can
make him happy, do you?

Do you think
you can, signora?

That is what matters.

I don't know.

I want him to feel for me
as I do for him, but...

Dax does not feel things
like other men.

For women, you mean?

Women. Everything.

He... He just does not feel.

That's why...

When the baby comes
that'll make a difference,
won't it?

It could.

Yes, it could.

Fat Cat?

Hey!

Ugh.

Fat Cat.
You'll get me all wet, you.

Where have you been
all these weeks?

Well, you think
I cannot get along
without you?

Here, here, here.
What?

I've brought this
for you to see.

From my cousin
in Corteguay.

Read it, read it.

Pretty bad, huh?

Well,

the sugar crops are ruined
by storms every year.

And the secret police,
the curfew,
and the prison camps?

That is Corteguay.

It always will be.

Until someone stops it.

It can't be stopped.

Dax.

Yes?

Come push me, Dax.

Push me higher, Dax.

Higher.

Higher now.

Sue Ann.

Are you all right?

I think so.

Oh. Oh, no.

They've told you,
haven't they,
that I lost the baby?

Yes.

When you get out of here,
we'll go away somewhere.

I should like that.

Forgive me.

I'm so sorry.

I know.

You wanted it
to be a boy.

So did I.

We'll try again.

And next time we'll
have a perfect baby.

I'll nurse myself
like an invalid.

I won't swim.
I won't dance.

I won't even sit
on a swing.

And I'll present you
with the fattest little
Dax you ever saw.

That's right.

No.

I'm lying.

I'm lying, Dax,
I'm not telling
you the truth.

I can never have
another baby.

I know.

They told you?

Why did you let me go on?

You mustn't upset yourself.

I've let you down,
haven't I?

No, of course not.

Yes.

You married me
for my money, Dax,
I know that.

Well, I'm rich.

I can give you
everything you want.

Everything except...

The baby was so important.

It would have
kept us together.

I'm afraid now, Dax.

No.

You mustn't be afraid.
Nothing's changed.

Nothing's different.

Dax,

Please, don't leave me.

You must sleep now.

A rich man with a wife
he doesn't love, who
can't give him children.

What happens
to him, Fat Cat?

El Lobo.

It's almost time.

We're ready for them,
El Lobo.

Listen.

Two flight arrivals
in one week. A record.

Military aid.

These two are
loaded with arms.

Presidente is
getting nervous.

Excuse me.

Mr. Xenos, I'd like to
ask you a few questions.

I'm from Teen magazine.

Well, we all have
our cross to bear.

Is it true that
you've made love
to every woman in this room?

Not yet.

You've been married
three times?

And I've been
co-respondent three times.

Why have all your wives been
among the richest women
in the world?

It was a deeply
emotional experience.

Thank you.

Did I ever tell you about...
Thank you.

Did you take the key
to my apartment last night?

I can't find it anywhere.

See you tonight.

No, I'm sorry. I have to
go home with Sue Ann.

Oh, Sue Ann. Sue Ann.

I don't know why
you always have to...

I'm sorry, I forgot.

She's been your wife, too.

How is Sue Ann?

I haven't spoken
to her yet.

I haven't even
seen her today.

You can always tell
an old married couple

by the way
they avoid each other.

Yes.

Excuse me, Dax,
will you?

Is that my husband
making his getaway?

Sue Ann.

How are you?

You look marvelous.

I haven't stopped
eating for six months.

I'm sorry.

That's the way it goes.

Perhaps I shouldn't have
married either of you.

Would I have been
happier then?

No.

Just fatter.

Where did you go this year?

Oh, around.

Morocco, Italy.

Mexico?

To divorce Kiki.

You're working
faster than me.

You don't mind me
still wearing your ring?

Just one more.

This way, please.
Thank you.

Please may I have
your autograph,
Miss Leonardi?

I saw your Traviata
at La Scala, Milan.

Oh.

It was a deeply
emotional experience.

It was meant to be.

Thank you.

Since when have
you been interested
in opera, Marcel?

Since I bought
her recording company.

Excuse me.

Are the phones always busy
at Teen magazine?

Not if you dial
BR-98700.

It's special
from the Embassy.
Must be important, huh?

Embassy?

The Corteguayan Embassy.

"El Presidente is
pleased to invite you

"to the unveiling
of a memorial

"to Jaime Xenos.

"Patriot and
freedom fighter."

You will not
refuse to go?

That's why
I don't like it.

I can't refuse.

If only we were celebrating
a more happy occasion.

But your poor father
would have been delighted.

Señor, my poor father
would have been disgusted.

He was a man of peace.

I can't help myself.

So long as there
are still bandits
in the hills

and this one who
calls himself El Lobo.

Do you think
I'd want all this?

No, houses, Dax,
hospitals, schools,

food, tractors,
a five-year plan.

What do you think?

It will be very good
to be a Corteguayan

in five years' time.

You've been away
from your country
too long, Dax.

I didn't sentence
myself to exile.

A new Corteguay.
Modern, progressive.

But how to pay for it?

Where is the country
that will lend us the money?

America?

That's where you
got your money,
isn't it, Dax?

Three American wives.

Three American
bank accounts.

Did you bring me here
to discuss my profession?

Sit down, Dax.

Over there, beside me.

That's better.

Now, Dax,
I'll be frank with you.

I need your help.

Don't ask, Señor.

In America,
there is an organization
sponsored by the government.

The Overseas Aid Committee.

Now, if Dax Xenos,

the famous Dax Xenos
were to approach a member
of that committee...

You have the wrong man.

No, I have the right man.

The man who loves
his country and who will
fight for his country.

Dax,

will you try?

Well, at least consider it.

We can talk again.

You don't have to
decide at once.

All right.

I'll consider it.

You know,
it seems so natural

to have you sitting there
at my right hand.

I wish, well...

One day, perhaps.

Champagne?
We both need it.

First of all,
when I heard you were
coming to Corteguay,

I felt
I couldn't meet you.

Were you afraid?

Of you? No.

You're safe here, anyway.

It had to be here.
I'm not allowed to leave.

You are a prisoner?

Yes.

But I stay willingly now.

The nuns are kind.
They're my friends.

Your father
did this to you?

Yes. But I have
accepted it.

He kills his enemies.

Here I've learned
to love them.

I'm quite happy.

But you're not free.

Not as you mean it, no.

Because you are
the president's daughter.

Yes.

But for that, you and I...

Sometimes I hear of you.

Your wives, the parties

in Paris, Rome, New York.

I imagine I'm there
with you instead of here.

Amparo,

you and I,
it was a long time ago.

For me it was yesterday.

Yesterday
never happens again.

No?

No.

Dax.

Before you go...

There's something
I must show you.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Look.

Butterfly.
Butterflies.

Don't you know him?

What's your name?

Marcus Phillipe.

Phillipe?

Phillipe Xenos.

Do you have
any kisses for me?

Only one left.

What, only one?

You went away.

Married. Became rich.

You got to
go away for good?

Now I'm richer.

You'll take
good care of him?

Always.

May I see you again
when I come back?

Will you come back?

Whatever I decide,
I shall come back.

It's not easy for me, Dax.

It hurts.

I know.

But yes.

Whenever you like.

I hope.

Dax, you know I can't take
this kind of music.

Why'd you bring me?

I'm wondering that myself.

Who are all these
strange people?

Well, you did ask me
to invite them.

Hello, Marcel.

Hi.

I want to talk to you.

Is there somewhere
quiet? Private?

Private? Why, yes.
Come along.

Dax, what do I do?

Enjoy the music, darling.
Enjoy the music.

Is she that loud in bed?

Don't just
stand there, Robert.

Get drinks for the guests.

What the hell's going on?

It's very funny.

At last, we've got...

At last, we've got
something in common.

It's very funny.

Sue Ann?

Yes.

Somewhere quiet.
Somewhere private.

Some of my best deals
have been made in these rooms.

But who comes here?
Your wife?

April?

She doesn't even know
the place exists.

Very few people do.

Well, what do you want
to talk to me about?

Corteguay.

They need money. A loan.

When have they not?

How much do they want?

About $60 million.

For tractors,
medical equipment,
that sort of thing.

And you have to
raise this loan?

I said I'll try.

Makes sense.

Have you any contact with
the Overseas Aid Committee?

Overseas Aid Committee?
Let's see.

James Hadley.
Vice Chairman.

He'd be your best bet.

You know him?

Oh, yes.

He's an oil man.

I helped him
with a merger last year.

Can you fix a meeting?

I could try.

That will be great.

Just like the old days.

With the same old 15%?

Not on a deal of this size.

3%.

7.5%.

5%.

Okay. I'm a philanthropist.

Well, Dax, my boy,
I must say this,

when Campion first told me
who was sponsoring this loan,

I had my doubts.

After all,
you do have, shall we say,
a certain reputation?

I know that,
Mr. Hadley.

Now that I've talked with you,
I must admit. I'm impressed.

Thank you.

Most impressed.

Maybe just
a little envious, too.

My wife.

Just back from
a little shoppin' trip.

You'll be
able to say hello,

then fly right back
to the airport.

I'm most grateful
for your hospitality.

Not at all.

About the loan,
I'll put it before
my committee on Wednesday.

I've little doubt
they'll see it my way.

It means a great deal
to me, Mr. Hadley.

And to my country.

That I know, boy,
that I know.

Hiya, sweetie.

How was Frisco?

Fine, just fine.

I have a little surprise
for you, honey.

You're just in time to meet
my friend, Dax Xenos.

Happy to meet you,
Mrs. Hadley.

Dax flew in from
New York yesterday.

We're fixin' up
a little deal together.

And now you're going,
Mr. Xenos?

I'm afraid so.
I have to be back.

The White House
on the line, sir.

Y'all excuse me,
I'll be right back.

Oh, and, honey, don't you
listen to a word he says.

He tells the same thing
to all the wives.

Thank you, Dax.

You haven't changed.

Heavier.
Thicker around the middle.

The all-American matron.

Still beautiful.
Still Deborah.

Oh, you remember that much.

One forgets
the bad things,
not the good.

I'm glad.

Maybe we both found
happiness in Rome.

But I was the lucky one.

I brought my happiness
back here.

And kept it.

We shall meet again.

Of course.

I hope you'll come
and see us often.

Yes.

Cigarette?

I promised myself,
I'd never smoke again.

You two, getting along
all right?

Dax, y'all call me
on Thursday.

I might have a little word
for you by then.

I'll do that.

Goodbye, Mrs. Hadley.

It's been nice
meeting you, Mr. Xenos.

And for me, too.

Goodbye, Mr. Hadley.

Y'all have a good trip.

Thanks.

I guess that's
the last of the crates
from here, mister.

And the rest is
being loaded in Miami?

Yeah, that's right,
on, uh, Thursday.

Tractors, cultivators,
harvesters,
grain and fertilizers.

Fine.

Well, are you satisfied?

Now, now, you belong
to Corteguay.

Will you go back soon?

I've done my job.

I'm not needed there.

I think there are
some of those
who do need you.

Well, maybe.
Maybe some day.

Miss Daley, do you have
any immediate plans

after your divorce?

Are there any plans
after your divorce,
Miss Daley?

Hi.
Hello.

Hello, darling.
Hello.

For two people about
to get a divorce,
you look very close.

Well, I promised him
a holiday afterwards.

We are flying
to Mexico tonight.

Yes?

We might even fall in love
all over again.

And we might not.

We can try.

Prince Nikovitch,
will you come with me?

The hearing commences
in a few moments.

Um, I don't think
you met my wife.

Darling, this is, uh...

Don't stay.
It's quite unimportant.

At the end of it,
we shall still be
the same people.

Goodbye, Dax.

Bye.

It's like a public lavatory.

I'm rather fond of it.
I've been here before.

And I suppose
I'll go on coming here
for the rest of my life.

No. You'll find somebody.

I'm the richest girl
in the world.

I don't find people,
they find me.

All I can afford to do
is lose them.

All rise.

I thought I'd throw
my own party here.

A kind of
going-away party.

Just you and me.

What's the matter
with you, Robert?

Are you sick?

No.

Are you in
some kind of trouble?

I've been thinking.

How much you and Sergei
and Marcel have all changed.

How different you all
are from those
early days in Rome.

How little I've changed.

I'm still the same schoolboy
who loses all his fights.

Is that all you brought me
out here to tell me?

No.

It's the ship. Your ship.

It didn't dock in Miami
on Thursday.

Didn't dock?
Why, what happened?

It docked in
Panama on Sunday.

Panama?

It had no business
in Panama.

Oh, yes, it had.

It took on a cargo
of arms, tanks, artillery,
and ammunition.

Who did this?

Marcel. Marcel and Rojo.

When?

Right after you had agreed
to raise the loan.

Marcel flew to Corteguay
and fixed the deal.

How long have you known?

I've known.

And you didn't warn me?

I couldn't.
Marcel made sure I couldn't.

You see, I've never had
very much courage, Dax.

And Marcel
introduced me to something
which gave me courage.

Oh, you bloody fool.

Worry about your ship,
not about me.

I'm a dead man.

As soon as
Marcel knows, anyway.

I'll take care of Marcel.

What are you going to do?

You'd better hurry, Dax.

There's not very much time.

I never can fix
the last button, you know.

You were saying?

The poor always
suffer the most.

They have the least
to defend themselves with.

This damn tie.

May I help?

Please.

You are
an intelligent man, Marcel.

Tell us, how can El Rojo
defeat the guerrillas?

By killing them, I suppose.

And how are those
people killed, Marcel?

With guns, of course.

And who sells
those guns to Rojo?

Who gets paid by Rojo?

Who made the
double-cross to Mr. Xenos?

Huh?

You'll talk to us, Marcel.

Now.

You could never
resist a deal, Marcel,
could you?

Come on.

No!

No, Dax. Please.

Dax. No.

Let me go.

Take him.

Dax, please.

Just one more deal now,
Marcel. With me.

No. No!

What do you want?
Dax, Dax, I know nothing.

Now.

Where is that
shipment of arms
to dock, Marcel?

I don't know.

Honestly, I don't.

The boat,
where will it stop?

Only Rojo knows that,
I swear.

Where?

Puerto San Pablo
on the north coast.

When will it dock?

I don't know.
It's not certain.

Dax, Dax!

Nobody can hear you,
Marcel. When?

No.

When?

Tomorrow night.
Then by train to Curatu.

Dax.

No.

So uncivilized, isn't it?

Dax, Dax!

Dax! Dax, please!

You can't
leave me like this.

No. Please.

Come back, Dax!

Fat Cat.
Fat Cat, help me!

Help me, I'll give you
anything! Anything.

Don't leave me like this.
Don't make me...

I begin to believe you.

Why should I lie?

El Condor once trusted you.

If this is another trap...

There is no trap.

Viva El Lobo.

Can I help you?

No.

What is it?

Don't you recognize me?

The boy of El Condor.

You are El Condor's son?

Yes.

I don't forget you.

I shall never forget you.

You need help.

Not from you.
I'd rather die.

It's a great day.

Rojo is finished.

Tomorrow,
we attack the capital.

Have you
lost many men?

Yes, but they lost more.

I know what
you are thinking,
but you are wrong.

My men aren't a rabble.
They obey my orders.

There will be no massacres,

no raping and pillaging
in this revolution.

We'll fight to
bring life to Corteguay,

not death.

Get on the train.

On to Curatu!

Rebel tanks.

Fire!

Fire!

Machine guns!

Fire!

Charge!

The situation is
looking very satisfactory.

Sir.

General!

The rebels are
in the suburbs.

What do you say to that?

I say that they will be
held and thrown back,
Señor Presidente.

And I say the rebels
are in the suburbs.

Amparo.

What happened?

Gone.

Where have they gone?

I have six children,
they are always hungry,
Señor.

Where?

Curatu,
to the convent
of Santa Maria.

I know where it is,
come on.

That door.

Amparo.

Dax.

Phillipe?

Yes.

Pillage. Rape.
Destruction. Death.

It's always the same.

Not only in Corteguay.

Other countries learn.

Slowly,
but they do learn.

But we have nothing.

No.

They can have more.

And you can have more, too.

You and Phillipe.

We'll go to Rome.
When this is over,

I'll go to the palace,
see El Lobo and arrange it.

And what about my father?

I'll do what I can.

Rome.

Is it possible?

El Lobo can't refuse
to let us go.

He owes me more than that.

And in Rome, what then?

Will you leave me?

Don't save me
just to leave me, Dax.

Oh, no.

No, Amparo.

You and I and Phillipe,

we are all
that's left of...

You're my family.

Oh, God.

You are my future.

Is that enough?

Yes.

Yes, it's enough.

I must go
to the palace.

When it's safe, I'll send
Fat Cat to fetch you.

The government
is in full command.

The revolution
will be crushed,

for the people
do not want the revolution.

Campesinos, farmers, workers,

this is El Lobo,
the voice of the revolution.

Put down your arms.
The fighting is over.

Corteguay belongs
to the revolution.

Corteguay will always
belong to the revolution.

Aim!

Fire!

Fire!

Where is Rojo?
Where is diablo?

Where is Rojo?
Where is diablo?

Where is Rojo?

Where is Rojo?
Where is diablo?

Where is Rojo?
Where is diablo?

Where is Rojo?
Where is diablo?

Where is Rojo?
Where is diablo?

Where is Rojo?
Where is diablo?

You hear how
they roar for him?

The tyrant is
more popular than ever.

What will you do to him?

The voice of the people
must be obeyed.

They want him,
they must have him.

They'll tear him
to pieces.

You promised justice.
At least a quick death.

He will get the same
justice he gave.

I am a soldier.

Gen. Rojo.

There's no more
Rojo in Corteguay.

I demand a soldier's death.

Dax.

I taught you to kill.
Remember?

I steadied the gun
in your hands.

Kill me. Now.

No.

I can't.

Dax, I loved you.

Take him.
Take him out of my palace.

Dax! Dax, your father!
Your father!

I killed him.

He was killed
on my orders, Dax.

I murdered him.

The plane is waiting
for you at the airfield.

For us.

Dax, what is it?

I have to stay.

Not for long,
but I can't come
with you now.

But why?
The revolution's over.

The fighting's over.
That's all.

What else is there?

You can't do
any more to help, Dax.

Help?

Who have I helped?
Corteguay?

To kill one tyrant
and put another
in his place.

You can't
change that now.

I can try.

El Lobo respects me.

If I'm here,
I can control him.

In a few weeks, I...

No, Dax, you...
You promised.

Amparo.

Amparo,
for my sake and Phillipe.

You must go.

You'll be safe in Rome.

Fat Cat will
look after you.

I'll join you
as soon as possible.

Fat Cat.

I stay with you,
always.

Not this time.

They need you
more than I do.

My father wanted me
to care as he did.

Well, now at last
I do care.

Fat Cat.

I'm asking you,
my friend, to help me.

You have changed.

Now you are
like your father.

Promise
you will come soon.

I promise.

I found you yesterday.

Today...

Don't think
of today, Amparo.

Only tomorrow.

Goodbye, Dax.

Until tomorrow.

Take care of my son.

As if he were you.
