# Do you sleep or don't you, my darling... #

# ..listen for a while to this voice.. #

# The one who really loves you is in the middle of the street... #

# ..to sing you this sweet song. #

# But you're sleeping you didn't wake up... #

# ..these windows won't open... #

# ..this song is a needlework... #

# ..wake up my darling, don't sleep anymore! #

( Anna ) This is the city where I was born.

My name is Anna Zaccheo.

Everyday I wake up with the same hope:...

..will a find today a husband that's right for me?

I think of nothing else.

(Painter) # Beutiful are the sun and the roses in the month of may. #

# Beuatiful is the sun, beautiful is the sun may comes and april dies,... #

# ..who's inside and who's outside who's always around me... #

# ..who wants freesias, who wants lilies who takes me, who leaves me,... #

# ..who staring at this reed goes looking for who knows what... #

# I give you a beautiful rose put it in your hair... #

- And this would be the beautiful rose? - Just sayin'

''Lower boy, lower'' !

(In neapolitan dialect) Do you always paint this building?

- Don't you remember anything ? - What ? A kiss when we were kids ?

I wish ! ''Lower, boy, lower'' !

- Peppine', are you ready ? - Right away.

( Anna ) My younger brother works in a barbershop.

It's already been two years.

With the excuse that he has to learn the trade they keep not paying him.

No, these gloves aren't ours.

My mother only has to sew them.

Every week they bring them to her right out of the factory.

It's a job many other women do in my neighborhood.

My brother Pasquale is a sailor,...

..but he never did find a ship who whould take him in.

Nevertheless he cleans his shoes every morning, so he feels like he's going to work.

My father, is a driver of the funicular.

Since I have memory, every morning,...

..he wraps his breakfast always with the same cloth

Since you're going out, play this betslip for me.

Don't lose it, it's worth millions.

Play state lottery for me. State lottery do you understand ? 37, 50 and 22.

- Do you know what 22 is? The carriage! - Which carriage, dad ?

Money is earnt by working. And you won't send me to work.

You're not meant to work ! Trust your dad on this !

You'll see, one day the carriage will come, and with a prince in it.

Listen, listen..Is it coming ? From this way.

(In neapolitan dialect ) That's a carriage with a tramp in it.

No need for a carriage, we have a prince right here...

..then I won't be making gloves anymore, I'll just buy them !

( Anna ) Here he is, Don Antonio.

How many bouquets did he sent me, to this day ?

Can't keep the count.

Don Antonio is the boss of four or five stores,...

..he even has a car.

- Nann�, won't you fix your hair ? - Good morning, Filomena.

- Francesco ! - Good morning. At your service, Don Antonio.

- Where's my driver ? - I'm here.

How many times do I have to tell you that you're not selling fish anymore ?

You're my driver.

Good morning.

Peppinie', what are you doing ?

( Anna ) Let's go, I'll walk with you to the store, I have to go to the market.

That bitch !

- Do You want coffee, Don Antonio ? - Shut up, go inside !

Please, help yourself !

Help yourself mister, look how many brioches !

Sailor, buy a pizza to the miss.

Pizza !

Fresh eggs, fresh eggs!

They were made right now mister. Really fresh.

Take an egg! You need eggs !

My passion, my despair ! Look at those eyes !

You'll make me bankrupt, mister.

- 60 lire. - 50. - No way ! I might as well give them away for free then !

- I won't come here anymore, I'll change shop. - No, no !

You can't do that to me. Ok, let's make it 50.

It's women who bring mourning into families.

I'm still a bachelor for that reason. Do you need anything, sailor ?

The Bella soap is the only product that washes away any stain...

..any filth.

Do you see my secretary, who was born in pain?

Show to this gentlemen how the Bella soap does miracles.

Bravo !

And here's one of our most beautiful clients !

Let's make a deal miss: we give to you a piece of Bella soap..

..And in exchange you take our balloon home with you.

This is not fair. Who are you, Queen Tait� ?

- Me?! What do you want from me? - This is crap ! - Just a moment.

Advertising is the soul of commerce. We're not doing anything wrong.

- If miss accepts, we have a deal. - Sure I do !

- Here, many wishes miss. - Thanks. - Go, go.

Walk home with the balloon. All the way home, it's important.

(Woman) People look at her, not the ball!

(Salesman) Yes, they look at her but only 'cause she uses Bella soap!

- I'm a thief. - (Woman) a thief ? - Yes. - (Woman) Oh, dear god!

- A thief? And where is he ? - Here he is, catch him !

He's no thief,go away !

( Anna ) How many men ! I'd only have to choose. Who would i want for husband ?

This one maybe, but he doesn't come close.

(Man) Watch out, the battalion!

( Anna ) The day after it was a sunday.

I went to the sea with Caterina, my only friend.

That beach was solitary, no one ever went there.

- I'll try it, Caterina. - Completely naked ?

They say it's wonderful, an entirely different thing.

Do you know that foreigners come to Capri just to swim like that ?

You watch out for me, then I will for you. Ok ?

What ?! I'll only watch out for you.

It's better that no one sees my legs.

- I'm embarassed. - But who's gonna see you ? - It freaks me out to see them myself.

Come on! You always make yourself uglier than what you really are.

- Are you there Caterina ? - Nann�, if I were as beautiful as you, I'd be married to a king by now.

- What use is a king ? - I tried everything.

I even prayed for nine days to St Pasquale.

Nine evenings, on a balcony.

St Pasquale Baylon, patron of women,...

..send me a husband, white, red, any color you like!

Just like you, o glorious St Pasquale.

- Nothing ! - You lack faith !

I must have forgotten some prayers

But I found a solution...

..if the nine days weren't enough I'm gonna make a vow to St Pasquale.

St Pasquale, if you find me a husband I'll dress like you, with a frock and a cordon.

If you find a husband you'll seriously have to dress like St Pasquale.

Ehi ! Ehi !

Don't come out, wait !

Ehi, ehi !

Here you go.

- Thanks, but can you please look the other way?. - Sure. - Come on, come on.

- Don't turn around. - Sure, sure.

- Don't you recognize me ? - Do you know him ? - Yes and no.

Sailor, you're a nice guy but we can't trust you.

Go a bit further.

( Caterina ) There you go !

Stop it! This way he'll be embarassed and go away !

He already did that once !

( Anna ) That's how I met Andrea. This time he didn't go away.

I still haven't introduced myself. Grati Andrea, to serve you.

- My pleasure, Zaccheo Anna. - Capito Caterina.

- May I escort you ? - Why not ? Let's go

This way.

- I'm from Ancona. - A northerner.

- Sorry ? - Oh... drop the formalities.

- You must be very religious. - Well, Honestly...

Yeah right, up north they're a bit... How can I put it ? Carefree.

Did you know, miss I've been following you for an entire week.

- Really ? - Yes. - I didn't notice.

I could tell you what clothes you put on when you were in a good mood...

..and when you were sad, maybe'cause you had a fight with your boyfriend.

- I don't have a boyfriend. - Oh, good !

Opl� !

Anna ! ''Can you believe this?'

This way you'll see less of this thing.

It has swollen! Do you want to take a look in the mirror ?

Aren't you embarassed to be seen with someone like me ?

You see ? You're embarassed I knew it.

Ah, look ! I was like this an hour ago

Hm... Don't you have a picture in plainsclothes ?

I was born in a uniform.

- Look ! - What melons !

- It sure is annoying... - What ?

Someone who goes for a walk with you should get into a fight every two steps.

- Everyone looks at you. - Is it my fault ?

No, but if I were you I would dress differently.

It's getting late I have to go home. I've got to go.

Now that I summoned some courage you're gonna go away ?

- We'll meet tomorrow in the market. - No, tomorrow I can't.

If you go away you can forget about me !

- Let's grab a bite - Are you crazy? It's not appropriate !

- Depends on who you go with. - Yeah, but what would I tell to my parents ?

- Don't you ever lie? - Never. - Well, there's always a first time.

- You can say you were out with your friend. - Caterina ! Oh, Jesus !

Where is she? What if something happened ?

- She understood. - What ? - She was one too many.

Well, I'm not coming with you without Caterina !

Ehi, ehi !

I'll sto if you don't eat.

I don't go to lunch with just anyone.

You're already here, the damage is done. I'd eat if I were you.

First you force me to come here, and now you say bad things about me !

- I'm going away ! - No, wait !

That's how you show gratitude? Sit down.

- I'm a stupid I shouldn't have come. - Why is that ?

I heard sailors have a women in every harbor.

They tell these things to make you enlist ! It's not true at all !

''A tip maybe, mister?.''

Thank you very much.

200 lires to the musician ? You really are a sailor.

I was spoiled at home, I'm an only son, a privileged.

Every month my father sends me a check.

I don't even know how to spend all that money.

You must come from a wealthy family.

Can't complain, we have some land.

- Why are you a sailor then ? - I want to travel the world...

..and I want to find a wife.

There must be plenty of beautiful girls where you come from.

It's not easy to find an honest girl.

Girls have too many liberties these days.

I better go. If I stay you'll say I have too many liberties, bye.

No, wait ! Waiter, the check. I'll take you home, wait.

- It's no use, I HAVE to go home. - Why is that ?

- My father is throwing a small party I can't miss it. - I'm coming too.

Are you crazy? There's gonna be my father's colleagues, honorable people.

- Too bad, we could have gone to the theater togheter. - I said no.

Oh, wait !

''You're all my life You don't know how much I suffered for you !''

''I always loved you and ket you in my heart.''

''Gennar�, don't talk like this ! You know I don't deserve you !''

''I lost my way !''

''Now go, or Pasqualino is liable to kill us both !''

''But I want you, Mar�. I want you and I can't lose you.''

- Don't you like it ? - what ? - Look !

- I can't. - Shut up ! - Ssh !

- ''Here comes Pasqualino! Go away !'' - ''I'm going.''

- ''Who were you talking to ?'' - ''No one.''

''Don't lie, I saw you. You were talking to Gennarino, your lover.''

''How many times do I have to tell you? You belong only to me''

You're impossible.

You know... the chairs... are uncomfortable.

Go away !

- Let's change seats, come on. - Here is fine. - Yes, but...

- Sailor ! Go away ! - Sit down, sit down !

- One moment, one moment. - You see ?

Look there !

''If my relative weren't in jail you wouldn't treat me like this !''

''Don't make me laugh, you and your father !''

''You know no one tells me what to do.''

''And you do what I tell you If you don't want trouble !''

It's yours.

What about the other? I lost it.

I'll bring you a new pair tomorrow.

- My mother "has" a small glove industry. - What ?

- Then you're rich as well. - Sort of.

I have a brother who's a student and another who "has" a barbershop.

Ah...

I'm going. You're not right for me. I like poor girls.

- Go then. - Make up your mind already! - What a nuisance !

- Let's change seats or I'll get into a fight. - About time.

- What if I really left ? - Well...

- You like me a bit then.. - I didn't say that!

''Daughter! It's me, your father !''

- ''Dad ! Oh Dad !'' - ''Daughter !''

''I'm back to avenge your honor !''

- Were you ever engaged ? - I'm picky. - Me too.

''I'm happy to see you. Let's have a chat.''

''I shot one in the air to see you pale in front of death.''

''..and also 'cause you're a son of a bitch !''

''Whay did you do to my daughter's honor ?''

You laugh uh ?

''What do you want from me ?''

''Pasquale Esposito, you're a son of a bitch! You must die !''

''I shot in the air before now I'm gonna kill you !''

''Take me away I don't care!''

''This time I'm happy to go to jail,...''

''..'cause I avenged my honor...''

''..and 'cause I purged the earth of a poisonous snake !''

''Let's go, officers !''

''Then this great love found its most perfect conclusion.''

''Gennaro married her Marietta and they lived happily ever after'.''

''When her father came out for good conduct...''

''..he came home to her daughter after many difficulties.''

Make way, sailor

We saw a wedding! It brings luck

- We should have seen a movie. - You're never happy with anything.

The father was really moving.

I would have killed that Pasquale Esposito with my own hands !

Is your dad like that? Does he shoot ?

My father is a good man maybe even too much so.

Let's hurry, if I'm not back by nine I'm going to jail for the rest of the month !

Don't get any ideas, I'm going home

Come with me, come on ! We were togheter for so little !

No, it's late for me too, you know !

- Slower, slower ! - Hurry, or I'm gonna be late !

Wait! My shoe! You're making me trip !

- Then I could take you in my arms! - You silly !

What do you want? Come on, or you're gonna be late !

- You sure are beautiful. - Liar.

- Are you coming to the market tomorrow ? - Tomorrow uh? No, I'm not gonna be there tomorrow.

- Why not ? - Well... Let's run! - Slow !

- Tell me if you're coming tomorrow ! - I'll tell you later ! Run !

The shoe! Did you see? My shoe fell !

I don't wear my good clothes when I go to the beach.

I have to tell you...

I have to tell you something.

I'm a poor guy, you know. I told you a bunch of lies.

My father works the land but it's someone else's!

He only works there !

My dad.. drives the funicular.

We're six brothers, I'm the fourth.

I couldn't weigh on my family, so I enlisted.

Well, my mother sews gloves 200 pairs a week.

- Come on, run, or you're gonna be late! - Wait, let's stop a second.

- No, not here. - Why ? - It's too dark.

- TI have to talk to you, Anna. - Tomorrow. Am I not gonna see you tomorrow ?

- No, I want to talk now, Anna. - But.. you're gonna be late. - No.

I'm gonna be on leave in four months.

But you're a sailor, you don't make any money.

That's not true, I have a job I'm a mechanic.

From a sailor to a mechanic!

Laugh all you want, but the mechanic is a good job.

I can support myself.

I already saved some money in these five years.

Don't you believe that ?

- Why are you telling me these things ? - Because I'm serious about you.

- It's late! - Who cares I'm going to jail anyway.

No, you mustn't go to jail! Run, run !

Women in Naples are impossible.

That's 'cause you're a dummy.

Do you really have a cinema on the ship ?

We have a broom, not a cinema.

Listen.. I'm leaving tomorrow I'm gonna go far away.

And you say this just now ?

If I told you earlier you would have gone away.

- But I'll come back, I'll be on leave in four months. - I don't believe you !

I'm already fond of you, Anna.

- Do you like kids? - Yes.

- Are you gonna write ? - What about you, are you gonna answer ? - Hm...

You'll see what an husband I'll be ! You'll be the boss in our house !

I'll come back and tell you all about my day !

It's not like here where I come from We treat women very kindly !

No, no, the man must be the man ! He must be the boss !

Ok, I'll be the boss then. But.. Are you going to wait for me ?

Look, they're closing up.

- Tell me if you love me. - Go, go...

I'll bring you a monkey from Africa.

What would I do with that? I want a necklace !

Andrea ! Andrea !

- Just one minute. - Ok...

Hey, is that free ? Is there some for me too ?

- Ehi, ehi... - Come on, cut it out !

Let's go guys !

Come this way, don't go !

I'll be back soon, maybe I'll escape. I'm jealous, Anna.

- Here, it's a memento. - But.. they're gonna put you in jail.

That's ok, I'll have time to think about you.

- For me it's like we're already married. - For me too.

We got married in just one day.

How did it go? Will you meet again? Did you kiss ?

- Look. - Oh, God... From down there? How did he came up ?

- What are you talking about ? - The sailor of course !

Andrea left, but we'll get married when he comes back.

- Caterina, I fell in love. - Oh, Jesus... What about them ?

I'll never have the courage to tell them.

Dad is waiting for a prince and mom for Don Antonio, the wholesaler.

I'll tell you everything but you keep it for yourself, ok ?

I'm not gonna rat on you.

Look Catar�, I don't have a thing.

Mom says who wants to marry me should take me as I am.

- She says I'm my own dowry. - Yeah, sure...

- But I have a plan - What is that?

I'm gonna get a job and prepare my own dowry.

I need a lot of stuff: linens nightgowns...

Catar�, I'd like fancy stuff ! But I have only old-fashioned things.

- Panties too ! - Tell me about it !

I did the math: with four months' pay I'll have enough money.

- Do you think it's easy to find a job? - They're gonna want to hire me ! - Yeah, sure...

- Now I'll have to fight for it though. - Eh, eh...

- Dad, I want to work. - Anna wants to work !

- Did you fall from your bed? - Go shop for groceries, go.

I don't understand, in this house women work and men stay home!

I walked for 24 hours yesterday !

I'd understand if it was Caterina who wanted a job. She must find it hard to find a husband...

- But you, my child... - I want to work !

- And we don't want you to, ok ? - Do what your mother tells you !

- No ! - Yes ! - No ! - Yes !

My parents' complaints were useless.

Work ! Come on ! Let's go !

- Did you come for the ad ? - Yes. - Ah...

You're beautiful, too beautiful I have no use for you.

I really don't need you ! You stand out too much in a store !

You make my goods look bad !

But it's written on the ad: ''Shop girl wanted, possibly good looking ''.

- Yeah, but you look TOO good - You must be kidding..

Girl, I don't want any trouble, here, look.

If you come in here either everything stops..

..or I'll be forced to hire just female personnel

- Heavy, huh? - Yeah. - Look at you !

- You're not an ordinary girl! - He's right, not in the least !

- Here she goes ! - Where are you going ? - Come on, back to work !

May I ?

I came for that hostess job.

Yeah sure, come in. I'll be there in a minute.

Oh.. make yourself comfortable.

- Have you got any experience ? - No.

- What did you do before ? - I stayed home.

I see... do you know at least what a hostess does ?

Well, she shows people to their seats!

That's right, but it's a delicate job.

You have to be polite, precise and very reserved.

- This is the hostess' working tool, do you know it ? - Yes.

I'll show you how to use it. Come.

So, are you gonna hire me? I don't need a lot.

We'll see. Come here. Close the ceiling!

This is the hostess place. What's your name ?

- Zaccheo Anna. - Anna, that's good.

The client arrives and you ask him "How many seats?".

Gently though, or you won't get any tips !

This way, follow me.

Now you. Here. Pretend I'm a client.

Not in my face ! Light the path !

- Here. - No, it's too far away I can't see well.

Closer, a little bit closer.

Here's good !

Not bad, not bad. You still need to learn how to use the light.

It's easy to disturb the public.

- What are you doing? Leave me! - Wait... Just a moment...

- Asshole! - Come on! I wasn't going to eat you !

No, it wasn't my wedding day.

Andrea was still far away...

..and after a long research I hadn't found anything better than this.

I'm ready Doc !

No miss, that's not good.

You've gotta be more lively, think of something nice, your wedding, for example.

Do you understand? Much much livelier. This way. Good.

- Do you like this job? - Well... - Hurry with the bill ! - Yes.

- This dress looks really good on you. - Thanks.

Keep it on the left.

- The text goes on the right: ''A bride's most beautiful gift''. - All right.

Now smile as hard as you can, miss That's right.

- You can shoot. - Now, reflection !

Don't move... Here we are, done !

- Thanks miss. You do the other one. - All right.

Shake those hips ! Go change clothes.

Next time we'll do it with the transparent gown.

We'll be able to see you with less clothes on, finally.

Did you see? That's how you deal with women.

Go develop them.

What are you looking for? She's out of your league, beat it.

- Your name is Nicolino, right ? - Yes, Nicolino Abratazzato.

- How old are you ? - 19 years, 5 months and 27 days !

- I'm 23. - Just four years older...

23 years are a lot for a woman.

- Giulia Zaccheo... - Yes ?

- I'm here to pay you. - Thanks.

- Did you develop the pictures ? - Yes sir. - Come here.

- Are you getting used ? - Yes, but... - What ?

- Have a good lunch, doctor. - Come one, do tell.

I took this job 'cause you told me it was serious.

Isn't it ?

To be honest, no.

The photographer, the old one...

He says nasty things.

He tries to touch me, and he even has a ring on his finger.

So what? Can't a married man like another woman?

You're very young.

Rotten apples are everywhere, you need to learn that.

- I learned it. - Then you must endure it Come in.

You'll often come across this sort of things, men are mean.

- I know. - Defend yourself then, maybe with a few slaps.

Believe me: you need to take the world for what it is.

There are people who boss me around too, but I don't complain.

The important thing is to work honestly and earn money.

- You can do anything with money, and there's never enough of it, am I right ? - Yes.

- What do you eat? - Homemade stuff.

- I'd like that too... Here. - Thanks.

- It's your first pay, isn't it? - Yes. - Spend it well. - 'Bye.

Goodbye.

When I saw that showcased master bedroom...

..I thought of Andrea and I had an idea:...

..to surprise him.

''I think of you day and night. Yours always, Andrea.''

So? Are you engaged or aren't you ?

Now, engaged... not really, no.

No sailor will come into this house!

Couldn't he be noble?

Yeah sure.. How could a simple sailor be a noble?

- You don't know what you're talking about. - Sure...

Do you know how the Duke of Abruzzo started? As a sailor !

So they learn and after two years they become admirals!

What are you talking about? And where is this sailor from ?

- From Ancona ! - A northerner ! He must have money then !

Dad.. North, south, what's the difference we're all poor devils !

It doesn't have to be the sailor...

..but what if I liked a nice guy who happened to be poor?

Couldn't I marry him?

Then I'd have to work for ten more years!

- Me as well! - And me!

I'm 30 and I can't even afford cigarettes

Please countess.. ..strike a pose.

A little more... that's it. I'm sorry I have to touch you, "princess"

- Put your face like that.. - You didn't tell me about the face!

We need to complete the pose, only the thighs, only the thighs!

Just like that, perfect!

Ok... stop.. cover yourself.

Now I'd like one... like this!

- How is that? - Hawaiian style.

- With naked legs? - With the Orione stockings in her hand.

Ok

That's an entrire one! They did an entire one with you too!

We're gonna do that right away, without calling Illuminato.

Yes, let's do this between us.

Show the girl what pose do you want.

- Crooks! You should be ashamed of yourself! - What a voice! What passion!

Strike the pose for the next one.

Gimme that! Come here, listen!

I told you, she's crazy!

It's better if you come out! We're working here, not joking around!

- You're making me lose a million, and that's conservative. - She's embarassed.

- You shut up! Go out! - No !

- I'm calling the boss then! - Why do you want to lose the job ?!

- I don't care ! - Doc...

Miss, I'm Illuminato. Open up, don't act like a kid.

- What happens ? - Ask them.

They photographed me whole, without telling me.

I can't lose time with this nonsense.

You're putting up the money, but I'm the boss around here !

- Then you're fired! - As you wish. Goodbye.

Goodbye ! People are crazy...

Don't worry, I'll keep the negative.

I'm sorry, it's my fault you lost a big client.

Here, comb you hair. I need you, Anna.

This agency is still young, but if all goes how I'm planning...

..we're going to be a big agency, like the american ones!

Everything state of the art! Painters, elegant decorations...

We're going to do great things together and we're going to make a lot of money.

I discovered you, please don't leave me.

I can't stand some people.

Men are vulgar, I already told you. They judge girls only by the looks.

If they're beautiful, they lose their heads.

Even me, if I look too much at you...

- You're always kind with me. - Kind ?

To be honest, when I hired you,...

..before knowing if you were a decent girl,...

..I just saw that you were beautiful.

- Maybe I'm just like everyone else. - No, you're a good man.

- You think so? - Yes. - Could be.

You know, we're alone in here.

Recently I took an important account...

..for the advertising of a big company.

We should start now to be ready by springtime.

Our work will be seen all over the world:...

..America, France, Germany !

You'll be paid well, you'll see. We're gonna work for a year on that.

- Are you in? - Yes. - I knew.

It's gonna be color pictures. Do you like that ?

Yes, but what happened today must not happen again.

I'm gonna look after you personally I promise.

Life for a girl is difficult but nobody has it easy.

I did a thousand jobs and always looked out for myself.

Learn, Anna, in life you'll have to make it on your own.

- What did you buy with your first pay ? - Nothing.

- How come? Won't you tell me ? - A wedding room.

- You're engaged then. - Yes.

We'll go outside Naples and we'll start tomorrow or the day after with the pictures...

Here: this is an advance payment for your next job.

Thanks for everything.

- You can go. See you. - Bye.

Drink some more, it'll warm you up.

- Let's make it quick. - Nicolino, give her the ball. - Yessir.

No, not like that, keep it above your head.

- You, pretend to play. - Yessir. - So ?

I can't do this, doctor. The sky is grey the colors are all messed up.

It's gonna rain in a while.

We must reschedule for tomorrow. Anna, you can dress yourself.

- LEt's get away. - Nicol�, give me a hand. - Right away.

Nicol�, don't forget the ball.

- Are you still cold ? - No, I'm fine now.

Good. Take another sip.

Don't worry, you'll get paid even if we didn't work today.

Thanks.

- Ready ? - Yes, can I ride in the front seat? - Sure !

What a shame ! I even brought breakfast.

I had brought lunch.

It's so early that I'm sorry to leave.

I have an idea: why don't we stay and eat here ?

Sure.

- You can go. - Ok, see you in the office. - Yes.

- Hey, Nicol�, wake up. - Anna ?

- Do you want to drink some more ? - No thanks. I'm a bit dizzy.

The fisherman is the happiest person in the whole world.

Sometimes I'd like to get away from life for a couple of years,...

..immerse myself in nature with the sea always in front of me.

- What about you ? - Me ? I can see the sea from my house.

It's different. Here the sea is wild.

- Are you happy, Anna ? - I don't know.

- I'm not happy. - Why ?

- What do you think about me? - You? You're a gentleman !

- And what ? - I told you: you're a good man, you have everything.

I hadn't eaten on the grass since I was a boy !

I'm a sentimental guy.

Will your mother be angry if you'll be late ?

- No... she knows I'm with you. - Right !

Guess what I brought for lunch !

- Chicken. - No, guess again !

- Cake. - What do you think I am, a little kid?

- Look. - I have bread and eggs too.

Why do you have them so long?

Anna, wait ! Anna...

No ! No, please! No... no...

Leave me alone.

I tried to resist. You can't imagine how much I tried.

But in the end I couldn't.

I deceived myself before deceiving you.

I thought I was different, but in the end I'm just like everyone else,...

..like the photographer, like the guy from Orione stockings...

Once I thought about getting a divorce...

..but I don't have enough money to do that.

Maybe I'm a coward, I don't have the guts to leave my kids.

But is it right that love for me is just a memory?

Why don't you say something? Why don't you say what you think?

Will I see you tomorrow?

Conc�! Anna is getting married!

When? Tonight?

No, the furniture has come! Come see!

How come? All of a sudden?

Did her mother win at the lottery?

It's the father who plays.

Nice uh ? Looks like mahogany ! Come see !

She fell in love with it, she insisted and I bought it for her !

They're young, it's their time!

Hey, you're all wet! Go, I can take care of the furniture.

Who's the groom?

He's a fine young man, he has a career in the navy.

A northerner, a sophisticated man.

- Where did she meet him ? - They never talk about that.

They're young, they'll go live together.

- Is it true? Are you getting married? - Yes. - Best wishes then.

This wedding will make a lot of people jealous!

It's gonna turn out better for you next time, Don Antonio!

- Thanks. Close the door, will you ? Good evening. - Good evening.

Did you like the show ? Was I good ? Just like you!

''Not quite engaged...''

The sailor wasn't enough! Tell me, is this you ?

What a shame! What a shame !

You could have been a princess and you became a stockings model.

Crazy stuff!

Don't your parents have a say in all this?

Answer us, Nann�, we're talking to you.

Fine then marry this sailor...

..at least we can stop the whining.

- What are you talking about? - Shut up.

You know what? Let's make a betslip together.

Come down, we're gonna fill the slip together.

Do you think Anconetana will win?

Go see what she's doing.

Nann� ! Nann� !

Nann� ! Nann� !

What did she take? Iodium tincture?

- I don't know. - Mah.

If you talk, we can work things out.

Will you tell us ? Who did it?

Tell them ! I don't want to make a scene I just want to take a look at him.

Drop it. Detective, let's not make a scandal out of this.

Any way you want it. For me... then... I'm finished.

What do I write, detective?

Nothing, she's of age.

Dad wanted to come today as well, luckily he went to work.

- Pappaniello as well. - They'll come for you tonight.

No... Caterina !

Sorry miss, can I ask you something?

May I?

What's he doing here?

I don't want to see him! Cater�, do something.

Tell him I'm sick and the doctors won't let anyone see me.

Ok.

Andrea !

Andrea ! Andrea, wait !

You're not that sick, are you? Caterina had me all worried.

- Did you read the papers ? - Yes, but I didn't understand.

- I didn't want to see you. - What happened? Why did you do that ?

I can't be with you anymore. I'm not anymore the girl you knew.

How is that?

What do you mean?

You didn't love me then.

I loved you, but everything's changed.

We'll talk when you get better.

Closing time! Closing time!

Go away, Andrea, go away.

I had brought you this.

You see? It's not possible anymore.

Closing time! Come on, it's closing time.

The ship will sail again soon.

Good luck.

Who's going to marry her now?

There are a lot of poor devils in the world, she'll find one.

We want some too now.

Nann� !

- Anna ! - Nann� ! - Anna ! - Anna !

Why ?

I sold the furniture.

With that money, I lived for a while...

..but time passed and I couldn't find a job.

At times I lost all my courage.

It's a nice room, isn't it ?

Yes, I'm doing better now.

I even have a bathroom.

Remember to pay the rent I can't afford to wait.

- I'll pay you tomorrow. - Ok...

Nann�, listen: Don Antonio Percuoco always asks about you.

- He wanted to have the address. - That's behind me.

I know what Don Antonio wants.

- If you're hot take off the coat. - No. Do you want an apple? Take it.

- Ok, thanks. - Help yourself.

- Jesus, take another one if you want! - I'm not "hungry" but the apple is so good.

- Take off this coat come one! - No, no, no !

You're engaged! Who's he?

- Come, Gennar�. - May I ?

Come, come.

See ? Why don't you make a vow to San Pasquale too ?

Think about your vow..

How can I walk around hand in hand with San Pasquale! Everyone'll look at us.

But You have to do something!

I kept trying to find a job.

To save money, I always took the underground...

..but even that little money I had, was almost gone.

Then one night...

The sight of that man made my blood boil.

I could have killed.

Dad, I'm here!

- Call them! You have to make them respect you! - Massimo ! Massimo !

Couldn't you take the car? Did you have to make come with the underground?

Be careful, or you'll get hurt!

My anger all of a sudden vanquished.

That man with his family, sad and remissive...

..so different from what I had known.

I pitied him.

I was desperate as I came home.

I started to feel what it was like to not have any money...

..and being alone.

Do you want to come upstairs?

3000, eh ? 5000, come on...

You can take a walk then !

5000 lire, I could have lived for a week on that.

I only needed to say "yes". It would have been easy !

- How are you ? - I'm fine, you?

Very well now! Can I offer you something? Come.

- There. - Ok. Gennarino, follow us slowly.

Please.

- Do you want them ? - Thanks.

Can I ?

Gallantry first, don't you think?

You know... walking is good for you.

Yes, but only after eating.

I have been wanting to go for a walk with you for a while.

I saw you grow up, Anna.

Please, don't be shy.

You can lean, you're so light!

I'm good, thanks.

I'm serious, do you understand that?

What do you say?

If you don't want... for everything that happened to you, you're wrong.

I forgot, I just locked it all away.

You don't have to hurry, Don Antonio.

But I love you, Anna, and I want to marry you. Do you accept ?

Thank you! I don't deserve you but you won't reget this!

You're gonna have everything you need!

Anything you ask, I'll give you. Try me!

- Ask me! Right now! What do you want? - Something to eat.

- What? - Something to eat, I'm hungry!

Oh, I'm sorry, you're right. It's time to eat.

Come, let's go!

Starting that day he thought of me as his fiancee.

Everything went well when he could show off his wealth.

In a few days he showed me everything he owned.

At last, he brought me here.

I greet you, Pasquale. This is the new fish-store I rented.

What do you think? Modestly I have a knack for business.

- Ehi, Cicc� ! - Don Antonio, Are you all right?

- Perfect! - Funny guy!

This is Anna Zaccheo my fiancee !

- I'm Guardasole, nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.

- What do you think? - What a babe!

- You'll see what a wedding it'll be! All Naples will be there ! - Good !

- Friends and enemies ! - Best wishes ! - Thanks !

- Goodbye.. - Take care.

See? I'm already announcing the wedding.

If you wish tomorrow we can take care of the paperwork.

Do you like it? It's very beautiful ! All this stuff is mine!

I always dreamed of a warehouse like this.

Nann�, everything that's mine, is yours too...

..but everything that's yours is mine also.

If I have a warehouse like this, and I have you...

..what more could I ask?

Come on, come on!

Kid!

Tot�, take the ice!

He was unemployed... And he's like family.

- He'll go far. Did you bring tuna to your mother? - Yes.

Don't forget, tuna for mom everyday! Attaboy !

Ehi, Carmel�, come here you look like a whale !

She manages my business, she takes care of everything.

- Carmel�, Anna Zaccheo, my future bride. - Ah...

- So ? - Nice to meet you.

She has to work, not someone as beautiful as you, it wouldn't be right.

I'm sorry, Don Antonio...

You have to settle down sooner or later, don't you ?

Everyone knows for himself.

Carmel�, I have to talk to you a moment. Sorry Anna.

Anna... Pasquale show her the new scales, go.

- How are you ? - I'm fine.

- When are you coming back home ? - I don't know.

These are the scales.

- Who's that? - The boss' fiancee.

She'll never be faithful...

Who was it ?! Take back what you said !

Ehi ! Ehi ! What happened ?

You must respect him! He's in charge when I'm not here ! Back to work !

Did you like the scales ? And this is nothing !

Come, I'll show you the american fridge.

You have a car but take the coach?

My boss is a rich man,...

..also, his fiancee hates cars.

I want a lot of kids at least one for every shop,...

..and they should look like you, not me.

Wait, it's dangerous here, what are you doing?

Come here Don Antonio it's not dangerous!

Come on Don Antonio, don't be afraid.

You should build the stairs first!

This sucks.

Had I known this, I wouldn't have come.

You must be patient, it takes time to build a house.

Here you can put the kids' room.

Do you like it ?

- I'd put the master bedroom here. - That's ok.

- There's more space. We can put some beautiful curtains. - Very good.

Follow me. Here's gonna be the living room.

We'll have a lot of armchairs, you know, for our friends !

You have to think it over carefully when you build a house.

I had a great idea: let's go to your house tomorrow...

..and let's make a big entrance as man and wife.

Don Antonio, are you sure you really love me?

Of course, don't you trust me ? Oh Jesus !

Yes, but you haven't even asked my opinion about anything.

- About what ? - All the things of life.

I have ideas, I have a heart...

If a woman looks good on the outside her hear will look good too!

I'm crazy for you.

You have to be patient. I told you, maybe in time I'll feel the same..

Sure, sure... but let's get married.

Listen, it's a good deal for you too.

Sure, I'm old, I'm not handsome, I know.

But i have four shops and...

I don't care about the shops I just want a house for myself,...

..and a quiet life like all the other ladies.

That's good !

- I'm sorry. - Don't worry...

- No, Don Antonio, not here ! - Where then ?

You must have kissed others before ! The sailor, and that other guy too..

What about me... ?

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that.

We're here. Please.

- Don't worry. - Please, I'll escort you !

Gennar�, pay the coach and give something to these guys !

Goodnight then.

- Let me in. - Act your age Don Antonio.

- Only for a couple of minutes. - No ! - Two minutes only!

I need only you to be happy

I'm a poor girl!

Poor? You're rich ! You have these eyes, this mouth...

Wait ! Anna !

I want to be like this !

Why them and not me ? I'm just like them.

If they see us, we're gonna be embarassed.

Let me stay like this !

It's impossible, Don Antonio.

But I'm marrying you ! I'll take you home tomorrow !

No, I couldn't marry him just to have a husband.

I tried everything to fall for him...

..to convince myself that in time maybe, like many other women...

..I could adapt and be content.

But I couldn't give up forever any serious affection...

..and I wouldn't have been a good wife for him anyway.

Hurry up ! Hurry up !

''Se�ori e se�orite'', today starts the italian-american festival.

Bets for the next match will close in two minutes.

Once again, we present the archers in the competition:...

..here's the ''se�orita'' Teresa Ferrari,...

..with the number 1 !

And here's number 2: Anna Zaccheo ! Et voil� !

After many days of despair and hunger,...

..I had finally found a job.

It was, like always, an unsual job,...

..like all the ones I had gotten before,...

..but it was better than nothing.

And now let me introduce Maria Grimaldi !

''Se�ori e se�orite'', bets are closed ''rien ne va plus'',...

..which means: who's in is in who's out is out.

Let's start the competition.

''Mademoiselle, s'il vous pla�t, � votre place''.

Boy, give her the bow. ''Et voil�'' !

Anna Zaccheo, look at me,...

..I bet 1000 lire on you !

Ready, go !

Four points for number 1 !

And now, ''monsieur dame'', it's number two's turn !

Ready, go !

Don't trust the sailor, he'll leave ! Stay with us !

The competition continues with number 3!

Can we be together for a while... alone ?

I'll ask if they'll let me.

I wanted to talk. Last time we left on bad terms.

- Who told you I was here ? - Caterina.

Wait here.

- What places did you go to ? - I was in Greece, in Thessaloniki.

I thought I had seen you from the funicular once.

- How long ago ? - About a month.

Couldn't have been me I was still traveling.

The sailor I saw was with a girl.

It wasn't me.

You don't even recognize me anymore.

- We saw so little of each other... - Just one day, but it was great.

Eat something.

Are you... Are you engaged?.

Me? I feel old, as if I already had white hair.

Do you think I didn't suffer?

You want something, sir?

- When are you going on leave ? - In about a week.

- Do you want to go out? - As you wish. The bill. - Right away, sir.

Do you still plan on being a mechanic?

I don't know what I'm going to do.

You knew very well once... It's all my fault.

Let bygones be bygones. It must have been destiny.

Here you are.

No, you did not eat anything. Don't worry.

Why did you insist to pay the bill?

If you want to open a shop you'll need a lot of money.

# What spell is this? What spell is this?#

# A siren put a spell on me... #

# ..and there's no escape... #

# ..she made a chain with seaweeds for me,... #

# ..sailor, if you can hear me, go away. #

# Because, what spell is this? What spell is this? #

I haven't come here since that time.

# Poor me, poor me ! #

Do you need a light ?

- Thanks. - You're welcome.

- Come to my place, I'm going there. - Why? - Sit down!

- Do I punch him ? - Leave him alone.

''Cummare e cummarelle'' !

''Cummare e cummarelle'' !

Since this girl asked me...

..I'll sing again ''Cummare e cummarelle'' !

How cool is that?

# Not to brag, but I'm king of the neighborhood... #

# ..girls and women are always around me. #

# They open the windows if they see me in the street,... #

# ..even birds sing at my passage,... #

# ..'cause I'm always cheerful, always cheerful ! #

# Girls and women, they're beautiful... #

# ..but I love Stella, she's also beautiful. #

# But to please everyone I don't let them pin me down:... #

# One here, one there:... #

# ..I take them all for a walk at the beach ! #

# Girls and women they're beautiful... #

# ..but I love Stella, she's also beautiful. #

You too sailor, sing along !

# But to please everyone I don't let them pin me down:... #

# One here, one there:... #

# ....I take them all for a walk at the beach ! #

Why is everyone looking at you?

You looked at me too, once.

Let's get out of here.

Is something wrong ?

I love you, Anna.

And now that I saw you again, I love you even more. What should I do?

Andrea...

- I love you too. - When I'm with you I forget everything.

Shall we go someplace else?

I often dreamt that you'd come back.

You're the only good person I have ever met.

Last time we met I mistreated you.

Yes, but you were right.

Couldn't you find another job?

No, I tried everything.

All those men...

I don't know them. Don't you believe me?

Come.

- Are you cold? - No.

I'm so happy!

We have a lot of time to be together.

Excuse me, do you have a match?

Hey sailor, do you need a room? Clean, not too expensive.

- Hey calm down! What did I say ?! - Andrea !

It's getting late I better take you home...

..or you'll have to tell lies on my account.

Not this way, that way.

- Wasn't it that way? - No.

Here, this is my place.

Why did you leave your family?

After all that happened I couldn't come back to my neighborhood.

I'll keep you company for a while. Let me in.

Yes, come in.

Give me your hand, it's better not to turn the light on.

You don't like it, do you?

It's a room like many others.

I couldn't afford better. This one is cheap.

I'd have liked to welcome you in a royal palace.

Are you tired?

''Antonio Percuoco, wholesaler''. Who's he ?

We were engaged, nothing serious...

I never even kissed him but he won't let it go.

Then what?

I left him because... he wanted me just like another business.

Why were you engaged?.

I was hungry, you should understand.

You were a sailor out of hunger too.

He would have married me and I wanted to be a girl like the others.

I can't live without you.

Andrea...

You'd have left without a word.

I didn't wanna wake you up. It's late I have to get back.

I still can't believe all this.

I didn't tell you...

.. I had even bought the furniture.

I'm curious to see you in plainclothes.

My clothes will be small.

Andrea, will your parents like me?

Sure, why not?

A mechanic, to start...

..can work at home without a licence.

You'll have less expenses..

If we'll get married here in Naples, you'll have a lot of work!

I'm sure everything is going to be fine.

Sleep now, close your eyes.

No, don't go away ! I'll come with you !

- Will they put you in detention ? - Yes. - What about the leave then ?

They'll discharge me anyway, don't worry.

It probably was the last one.

About the discharge... We need to think about that.

- There's something you're not telling me. - Wait, I have to be careful.

You're here at last! They're gonna lock you away!

- Just a minute please. - Ok, but be out of sight.

- What should I do? - What do you want me to say? Go back and forth.

Come to the gate.

I want to know everything.

- I didn't want to talk about this. - Explain yourself.

Some things aren't easily forgotten, try to understand.

That man, the advertising guy... Why did you go with him ?

You had forgotten.

I tried everything to forget, believe me, but I couldn't.

You know how things went. I paid my dues, Andrea.

Hey dude, you'll get me into trouble.

It's ok with me, but they can see you from the ship.

- Go see what happened. - Wait.

He's geiving you a hard time uh? Such a beautiful girl.

Anna.

You don't love me, you'd understand otherwise.

I do love you, you don't know how much.

Everyone makes mistakes.

What about me, why did you sleep with me?

What do you mean?

I don't mind sleeping with you, I love you.

You shouldn't have done that, you should have sent me away!

Why should I give up love?

Hurry up, you'll end up in jail.

You see how I am? Think about that.

You'll marry a man that'll make you suffer for your whole life.

I don't mind suffering as long as I'm with you!

..to have a quiet life after so many years as a soldier.

I wouldn't hurt you! I never hurt anyone!

- You did hurt me! - Think of what I went through!

What does that have to do with me? It wasn't my fault.

No it wasn't. You're just made like this.

I'm just like everyone. My father, my brothers...

You see them? They're like this too. We're all the same.

We can't help some things.

You're right.

Let's think about this.

Farewell, Andrea.

Anna... Anna... Anna !

Anna !

So beautiful and so sad...

Miss! What are you doing?!

Are you crazy miss? Be still!

Miss... be still...

Your room has stayed the same.

So many windows... so many girls like me.

And yet, we shouldn't get tired of living!
