So, what’s up?

20
00:03:43,718 --> 00:03:47,279
The mayor, Don Salvatore,
wants you to go to his house, now.

21
00:03:47,377 --> 00:03:51,507
- Right now? What does he want?
- I don't know, he said it's urgent.

22
00:03:52,863 --> 00:03:56,925
- Fine, you can go. - Can I go?
- Yes, go away! - Excuse me.

23
00:03:58,343 --> 00:04:03,770
- Stay here, I'm going to Salvatore's.
- Couldn't he come to you?

24
00:04:03,701 --> 00:04:06,773
- But he's the mayor.
- And you are the political authority.

25
00:04:06,759 --> 00:04:11,458
Margherita, shall we argue about who's
more important here in the theater?

26

The Italian population...

30
00:04:33,926 --> 00:04:37,385

31
00:04:37,834 --> 00:04:40,019

But even if it were missing, . .

00:04:45,361 --> 00:04:49,320
We would never, and I mean never...

a shirt except the Duce?

42
00:05:40,364 --> 00:05:41,672
Shut up!

- Hey!

45
00:05:56,383 --> 00:05:59,956
- Oh, Mrs. Rosa. Where are you going?
- Good evening.

46
00:05:59,932 --> 00:06:04,051
I'm going home. My husband was
urgently called by the mayor.

47
00:06:04,016 --> 00:06:08,908
- Him too? So he gathered the Cabinet.
On a Sunday! -Yea.

48
00:06:08,858 --> 00:06:13,432
Teresi', go and buy me a postcard.
And don't run!

49
00:06:13,478 --> 00:06:15,446
When will I see you?

50
00:06:15,579 --> 00:06:19,174
I could go to Lecce to the dentist.
The day after tomorrow.

51
00:06:19,159 --> 00:06:23,778
- Yes, that's good for me.
- For me too. - Here is the postcard.

52
00:06:23,893 --> 00:06:30,606
- Fare the well. -Say hi to Mrs.
Margherita from me. -I will. -Good-bye.

53
00:06:30,502 --> 00:06:34,848
I told you not to run! If you do things
in a hurry, they won't come out well.

54
00:06:35,143 --> 00:06:38,511
Gentlemen, this is what's happening.

55
00:06:39,303 --> 00:06:43,900
My cousin, Aunt Enrichetta’s son.
You know him, right?

56
00:06:43,854 --> 00:06:47,245
The one employee by the prefecture
in Taranto.

57
00:06:47,219 --> 00:06:52,305
Today he sent me a letter which
is really alarming.

58
00:06:52,918 --> 00:06:56,365
It would be alarming if there were
reasons to feel threatened.

59
00:06:56,340 --> 00:06:58,763
Salvatore, can you make up your mind?

60
00:06:59,110 --> 00:07:02,193
If you don't interrupt me,
I'll get to the point.

61
00:07:04,063 --> 00:07:08,387
"October 23, 1937,
15th year of the Fascist era. "

62
00:07:08,341 --> 00:07:11,675
“Dear cousin, my ulcer is getting
better“... no, this is not...

63
00:07:13,940 --> 00:07:15,476
Here it is!

64
00:07:15,655 --> 00:07:22,038
I want to inform you that the Party
sent an Inspector from Rome

65
00:07:21,943 --> 00:07:26,505
to conduct a political-administrative
investigation in your municipality.

66
00:07:26,571 --> 00:07:27,618
Good!

67
00:07:28,048 --> 00:07:30,415
About time they remembered about us!

68
00:07:32,450 --> 00:07:34,043
Well, I meant...

69
00:07:36,063 --> 00:07:42,708
“I suggest you take due precautions,
since he will come incognito, "

70
00:07:42,612 --> 00:07:45,491
"if he's not there already,
as I presume. "

71
00:07:45,740 --> 00:07:49,677
"Romualdo’s plaster cast was removed,
and he resumed playing violin... "

72
00:07:49,646 --> 00:07:51,808
Well, there are family matters.

73
00:07:52,263 --> 00:07:55,665
Gentlemen, this is the news.

74
00:08:01,543 --> 00:08:06,583
- An inspector, incognito?
- Yes. But why?

75
00:08:07,263 --> 00:08:16,570
If an inspector from Rome comes
here, there must be a reason.

76
00:08:16,806 --> 00:08:18,558
Maybe a political reason.

77
00:08:18,576 --> 00:08:21,853
"Political-administrative investigation",
as your cousin says.

78
00:08:21,839 --> 00:08:24,160
This has never happened in many years.

79
00:08:24,164 --> 00:08:28,783
Maybe it's a reporting. In the district
there are more backbiters than cuckolds!

80
00:08:28,730 --> 00:08:32,928
Don Aurelio! Don't start with defeatism!
Ours is a healthy district.

81
00:08:32,886 --> 00:08:38,859
Yes, but coming here incognito shows
a lack of trust.

82
00:08:39,012 --> 00:08:47,102
No investigation can threaten who has
a clear conscience, like us.

83
00:08:46,976 --> 00:08:52,437
- Of course. -Of course.
- However... -However, what?

84
00:08:52,983 --> 00:08:59,719
Nothing, but if an Inspector "wants"
to find something wrong, well...

85
00:08:59,616 --> 00:09:02,597
We are gentlemen.
If he is, too...

86
00:09:02,730 --> 00:09:04,687
Would you like a cup of coffee?

87
00:09:04,701 --> 00:09:08,535
- Why trouble yourself? - No problem.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.

88
00:09:08,500 --> 00:09:11,197
Mrs. Nunzia, time goes backwards for you!

89
00:09:11,197 --> 00:09:13,996
Maybe! Any nice shoe ends up like a boot.

90
00:09:14,077 --> 00:09:17,763
- Not to you! You're too nervous already.
- I would be nervous?

91
00:09:17,740 --> 00:09:22,109
Don't be silly as usual! It's you who get
on my nerves, with that damned radio!

92
00:09:22,068 --> 00:09:25,641
- Even the radio annoys him!
- Nunzia's coffee is something else...

93
00:09:25,616 --> 00:09:27,664
<i>to laugh...</i>

94
00:09:28,743 --> 00:09:32,953
- How can you do your homework with the
radio on? - What homework? I was playing!

95
00:09:32,908 --> 00:09:36,594
- And your homework? Ignorant!
- But dad, he's finished already.

96
00:09:36,570 --> 00:09:40,552
What's wrong with you?
- With me? Nothing! What should be wrong?

97
00:09:41,875 --> 00:09:45,539
Go open the door.
What are you waiting for? Someone rang!

98
00:09:46,657 --> 00:09:48,409
She reads, the literate!

99
00:09:48,537 --> 00:09:52,292
- First I let it boil...
- OK, now leave us alone, please.

100
00:09:52,268 --> 00:09:54,464
A bit of politeness, Salvatore!

101
00:09:54,896 --> 00:09:58,070
He always vents his nervousness
on that poor child!

102
00:09:58,050 --> 00:10:00,132
What? Me nervous? Damn it!

103
00:10:01,172 --> 00:10:04,551
- I'm extremely calm! Go, dear.
- Good evening!

104
00:10:06,383 --> 00:10:08,556
- Saverio, a cup of coffee?
- Thanks.

105
00:10:08,565 --> 00:10:12,570
No, his heart is weak. And even if
he wanted some, don't give him any!

106
00:10:12,536 --> 00:10:16,325
I did ad you told me,
I ran to the hotel.

107
00:10:16,298 --> 00:10:20,826
I sent him there to see if any
foreigner had arrived.

108
00:10:20,774 --> 00:10:25,541
- Well? -At the "Moon Inn"
nobody arrived.

109
00:10:25,493 --> 00:10:30,317
Neither at the "Central Hotel“.
Nobody, except... What's his name...

110
00:10:30,259 --> 00:10:32,944
One must pull the words out of him.
Except?

111
00:10:32,937 --> 00:10:36,339
Except Dr. Fame,
the specialist in hernial girdles.

112
00:10:36,323 --> 00:10:40,112
- Oh, so he's here? Er... and who else?
- The guy of the Perugina.

113
00:10:40,083 --> 00:10:43,098
They don't count! They come always.
No stranger?

114
00:10:43,081 --> 00:10:45,709
No, nobody. Only a certain...

115
00:10:53,030 --> 00:10:56,762
Omero Battifiori,
a guy who arrived today from Rome.

116
00:10:58,623 --> 00:10:59,749
From Rome?

117
00:11:21,943 --> 00:11:26,346
- "Ciarea madamin". Is that how you say it?
- Did you find everything ok with you room?

118
00:11:26,300 --> 00:11:32,421
All good. The bed squeaks and hot water
comes out instead of cold one.

119
00:11:32,333 --> 00:11:35,587
I hope you're not one of those
customers who always complain.

120
00:11:35,574 --> 00:11:37,611
That guy really looks like a rat!

121
00:11:37,765 --> 00:11:42,089
No. Even Starace incognito looks
like a nobody. But with his uniform...

122
00:11:42,650 --> 00:11:46,609
- I saw the poster.
- yes, there's theatre, but it's tomorrow.

123
00:11:46,572 --> 00:11:50,236
But a man who wants to meet a pretty
woman like you, where should he go?

124
00:11:50,209 --> 00:11:53,349
What should I say?
My husband came up to Turin!

125
00:11:53,339 --> 00:11:57,993
Anything closer? How do singles
have fun at night, in this place?

126
00:11:57,939 --> 00:12:01,068
If you came here to have fun,
you got the wrong town!

127
00:12:01,053 --> 00:12:03,397
There's not even a casino? - No.

128
00:12:03,782 --> 00:12:06,388
- Night club? - No.
- Amusement park? - No.

129
00:12:06,383 --> 00:12:08,750
- Pool?
- Yes, there's a pool hall.

130
00:12:08,755 --> 00:12:13,226
See? It seemed there was nothing,
and there's even a pool hall! Where is it?

131
00:12:13,203 --> 00:12:17,777
- At the Union Club, in the square.
I'm not sure they'll let you in. - Me?

132
00:12:18,069 --> 00:12:22,176
You don't know who I am!
See you.

133
00:12:22,743 --> 00:12:27,010
Pool is an excuse to go
to the Union Club.

134
00:12:33,103 --> 00:12:37,347
Gentlemen, it's clear now.
It's really him.

135
00:12:37,301 --> 00:12:42,193
Here is what I found in his
room: a list of names.

136
00:12:42,138 --> 00:12:48,498
A black list that he brought from
Rome. Unfortunately we're all on it.

137
00:12:48,412 --> 00:12:51,473
- Even I?
- You're the first on the list.

138
00:12:51,461 --> 00:12:56,353
"Aurelio Bitetto, school principal. "

139
00:12:56,298 --> 00:13:01,225
“Salvatore Acquamano, mayor. <i>"</i>

140
00:13:01,173 --> 00:13:05,940
"Carmine Passante,
political secretary. "

141
00:13:08,023 --> 00:13:10,936
“Giulio Cariddi, hospital manager. <i>"</i>

142
00:13:12,903 --> 00:13:17,420
- "Nicola De Bellis, consultant for
streets and gardens. “ -How am I involved?

143
00:13:17,374 --> 00:13:21,038
- Aren't you part of the Cabinet?
- Yes, but I don't deal with money.

144
00:13:21,012 --> 00:13:25,427
- What are you trying to say?
- That I'm not involved in politics.

145
00:13:25,381 --> 00:13:29,090
Well then, I have never trafficked
in ﬂowers! -Well said!

146
00:13:29,058 --> 00:13:32,119
And what about the textbooks affair?
And what about medicines?

147
00:13:32,101 --> 00:13:37,369
Shh! Damn this habit of us Italians!
Always talking!

148
00:13:37,303 --> 00:13:40,716
- You can thank your wife.
- My wife? What do you mean?

149
00:13:40,693 --> 00:13:45,267
- Never mind, it's better if you don't
get me started! -Be quiet.

150
00:13:45,220 --> 00:13:50,147
Why don't we talk instead of that new part
of the hospital which was never built!

151
00:13:50,093 --> 00:13:54,553
Then, if we put it this way,
let's talk about the airport too!

152
00:13:54,512 --> 00:13:57,026
Let's not start again with the airport!

153
00:14:04,063 --> 00:14:07,215
Hey! Gentlemen!

154
00:14:09,303 --> 00:14:12,716
Do you think this is good?
Among us?

155
00:14:12,693 --> 00:14:16,857
Leave these things to the ignorant mass.
How does the saying go...

156
00:14:16,822 --> 00:14:21,419
- "Voice of the population, voice of God. "
- Don Nico', you're getting on my nerves.

157
00:14:21,374 --> 00:14:24,435
- But I thought...
- You thought wrong!

158
00:14:24,742 --> 00:14:28,155
- Aren't we gentlemen?
- That's what I'm saying!

159
00:14:28,132 --> 00:14:29,213
Exactly.

160
00:14:29,354 --> 00:14:34,531
- So what do we have to worry about?
- About nothing! Absolutely nothing!

161
00:14:39,463 --> 00:14:45,448
Here goes "Negus" with his new suit.
It must be the cloth he won at the rafﬂe.

162
00:14:46,982 --> 00:14:48,802
So, you're from Rome...

163
00:14:49,438 --> 00:14:52,009
Who, me? Sorry, I was distracted.

164
00:14:52,012 --> 00:14:55,414
- Yes, from Rome.
- Baron, the gentleman is from Rome.

165
00:14:55,398 --> 00:14:58,459
"Caput mundi"!
They make such good sweets!

166
00:15:00,393 --> 00:15:01,599
Of course!

167
00:15:02,148 --> 00:15:05,118
I've been there a month, in 1918,

168
00:15:06,158 --> 00:15:08,001
coming back from the war.

169
00:15:08,013 --> 00:15:10,277
Since then Rome has changed a lot.

170
00:15:12,823 --> 00:15:14,211
Yes, I know.

171
00:15:15,183 --> 00:15:19,507
Now there is lmpero Street,
and Mussolini forum.

172
00:15:19,461 --> 00:15:23,785
Yea. There's Palazzo Venezia...

173
00:15:23,741 --> 00:15:27,974
- That was there earlier too.
- Yes, but it was empty!

174
00:15:29,423 --> 00:15:32,552
Yes, yes. Good one!

175
00:15:32,540 --> 00:15:36,443
Here goes "The Pope“ with his wife.

176
00:15:36,411 --> 00:15:41,645
- The Pope? -Here we all have a
nickname. -Oh, in Rome too.

177
00:15:41,577 --> 00:15:46,390
There's a professor who always drinks,
and we call him a "quart of wise".

178
00:15:46,339 --> 00:15:51,436
- Well, you sure are lucky. -Why?
- You live in Rome. - Ah.

179
00:15:51,372 --> 00:15:56,970
There you can breathe new air,
heroic air, huh?

180
00:15:56,901 --> 00:16:02,931
- Sometimes one can go and hear the
Duce. - Always. Every time he talks.

181
00:16:02,853 --> 00:16:04,218
You didn't spin it enough.

182
00:16:04,823 --> 00:16:07,121
Nine points! And two before, eleven!

183
00:16:07,463 --> 00:16:10,273
- Dear professor.
- Good evening.

184
00:16:10,261 --> 00:16:13,253
- Would you like some coffee?
- Thanks.

185
00:16:14,423 --> 00:16:17,836
- Angeli', a coffee for the professor.
- Ok, Baro'. -Please have a seat.

186
00:16:17,813 --> 00:16:20,874
- Every time?
- Yes. - Well, of course.

187
00:16:20,861 --> 00:16:23,944
You receive the red postcard and
you have to...

188
00:16:23,935 --> 00:16:31,205
No. I go by my own will.
Just like you'd go, if you lived in Rome.

189
00:16:31,099 --> 00:16:36,276
Last week did you hear his speech on
the way back from Germany?

190
00:16:36,211 --> 00:16:42,332
Well I was there, in Venezia square.
When he said...

191
00:16:42,253 --> 00:16:48,966
"The goal of the Axis
Rome-Berlin is only one:

192
00:16:48,862 --> 00:16:52,799
peace among people
worthy of this name."

193
00:16:54,336 --> 00:16:55,735
What can I say?

194
00:16:56,197 --> 00:16:58,325
I felt a thrill down my spine.

195
00:16:58,910 --> 00:16:59,980
Me too!

196
00:17:01,543 --> 00:17:03,853
Excuse me, since you are from Rome.

197
00:17:03,863 --> 00:17:07,686
- <i>Tell me.</i> - <i>How far is
Arenula Street from Venezia square?</i>

198
00:17:07,655 --> 00:17:09,931
I'm not sure, 200-300 meters.

199
00:17:09,934 --> 00:17:12,312
<i>We weren't too far off, huh?</i>

200
00:17:13,253 --> 00:17:17,724
- Why? - Nothing. The newspapers says
that a balcony fell in Arenula street!

201
00:17:30,063 --> 00:17:36,457
Here come the "big forks".
What a honor. Who should we thank?

202
00:17:37,103 --> 00:17:41,779
We were passing by and I said:
"Let's go and visit our intellectuals. "

203
00:17:41,733 --> 00:17:44,668
Since they don't come and visit us.

204
00:17:44,656 --> 00:17:47,091
- What are you doing here?
- I came in...

205
00:17:47,098 --> 00:17:51,262
For the political exiles it is forbidden
to enter in public places.

206
00:17:51,222 --> 00:17:56,604
- Professor, these are the rules.
- Yes, but... - Go away!

207
00:17:56,536 --> 00:17:59,870
- Wait, professor.
- Excuse me. -Go ahead.

208
00:17:59,854 --> 00:18:08,114
This is not a public place,
but a private circle.

209
00:18:07,975 --> 00:18:12,993
A nest of coward anti-Fascists,
you mean.

210
00:18:12,932 --> 00:18:17,620
And I can tell you that if it were for me,
this place would have been closed already!

211
00:18:17,574 --> 00:18:21,204
It's past <i>7</i> pm, and you should be
home before sunset.

212
00:18:21,178 --> 00:18:26,321
- Why all this zeal, all of a sudden?
- It's probably because of me...

213
00:18:26,257 --> 00:18:30,979
Until yesterday everybody was ok
with you coming here for a coffee.

214
00:18:31,555 --> 00:18:33,660
Even indulgence has its limits!

215
00:18:33,675 --> 00:18:36,781
It is our duty to defend
our nation from whom,

216
00:18:37,001 --> 00:18:40,403
with the pretext of a coffee,
is plotting against it!

217
00:18:41,385 --> 00:18:42,830
Is that right, comrade?

218
00:18:43,390 --> 00:18:44,755
I'm asking you.

219
00:18:45,523 --> 00:18:49,471
To be honest...
the professor came in a second ago.

220
00:18:49,782 --> 00:18:52,001
Not only he didn't plot, but...

221
00:18:52,209 --> 00:18:54,109
he didn't even talk at all.

222
00:18:55,090 --> 00:18:58,321
Well then, if you say so.

223
00:19:01,013 --> 00:19:06,565
The secretary means that we must
believe you, since you are an eyewitness,

224
00:19:06,796 --> 00:19:08,776
and a stranger, moreover.

225
00:19:08,783 --> 00:19:14,028
- May I introduce myself? Omero Battifiori.
- Salvatore Acquamano.

226
00:19:19,423 --> 00:19:24,236
- Thanks, good evening everybody.
- Good evening, Professor.

227
00:19:24,178 --> 00:19:30,834
A while ago, when I said...
well, I didn't know.

228
00:19:30,736 --> 00:19:35,902
Everybody has their own ideas.
So I'll say bye like we do in Rome.

229
00:19:37,623 --> 00:19:40,001
"See you"!

230
00:20:12,132 --> 00:20:16,035
- Are we doing Spring cleaning?
- Maybe is coming the Duce.

231
00:20:15,999 --> 00:20:20,209
- As if he would come here!
- But last month he was in Ragusa, Sciacca.

232
00:20:33,330 --> 00:20:35,446
BETTER TO LIVE...

233
00:20:36,663 --> 00:20:40,258
Better to live like the cuckold
Don Nicola than with our misery.

234
00:20:40,229 --> 00:20:42,891
- Go away, fat ball!
- Have a good evening.

235
00:20:42,886 --> 00:20:47,960
- Go to city hall, find the plastic model
of the housing project. - Which one?

236
00:20:47,901 --> 00:20:52,680
- The one I made 3 years ago for the
prefect. Put it on my desk. Hurry. - Ok.

237
00:20:52,624 --> 00:20:56,618
- "History does not respect unarmed
countries. " - I had never heard it.

238
00:20:56,579 --> 00:20:59,048
Well, you know, he comes up
with a new one every day...

239
00:20:59,052 --> 00:21:03,137
Where are you going?
This is a transit street. Go away!

240
00:21:03,102 --> 00:21:07,300
"I prefer a country with less artworks
and more flags taken from the enemy. “

241
00:21:07,256 --> 00:21:11,466
- Nice line! - It may be nice,
but where can I find a wall long enough?

242
00:21:12,003 --> 00:21:15,405
"The rabbit wool
is the wool of the Italians"

243
00:21:15,773 --> 00:21:20,142
- We have to cover this. - Why?
- There has been a circular about this!

244
00:21:20,101 --> 00:21:23,969
I mean, pairing rabbits to the Italians!
Are we kidding?

245
00:21:34,063 --> 00:21:37,670
- Well?
- What are you doing? Come out!

246
00:21:40,716 --> 00:21:43,993
- We came to get Tommasi'.
- Why, what's he done?

247
00:21:43,998 --> 00:21:48,936
- Nothing, the usual preventive arrest.
- Thank God, I was scared.

248
00:21:48,974 --> 00:21:51,341
But it's still 3 days to October 28!

249
00:21:51,446 --> 00:21:54,222
These are the orders.
Hurry up, it's cold!

250
00:21:54,221 --> 00:21:57,543
Damn it!
And then one shouldn't get a rifle?

251
00:21:57,523 --> 00:22:02,233
Shut up! it's for these words that
they call you a subversive. Get dressed!

252
00:22:02,304 --> 00:22:05,899
- Want a glass of wine?
- No, thanks, not when I'm on duty.

253
00:22:15,903 --> 00:22:20,340
- To go out which way should we go?
- Go through the country.

254
00:22:20,450 --> 00:22:23,715
- 2 miles?
- Orders from the mayor.

255
00:22:23,798 --> 00:22:27,780
- He says that the alleys are a shame.
- And he remembers only now?

256
00:22:27,742 --> 00:22:33,033
- So he buries us? What a fucking system!
- Don't worry, it's only for a day or two.

257
00:22:40,503 --> 00:22:43,689
Here, Saint Nicholas will protect you.
Pray to him.

258
00:22:45,015 --> 00:22:47,666
Saint Nicholas already knows
the grace I want.

259
00:22:47,659 --> 00:22:51,391
If he won't grant it,
it means that he too is on the other side.

260
00:22:51,361 --> 00:22:53,807
- Hey, Tommasi'.
- Hey, Pachialo'.

261
00:22:55,496 --> 00:23:00,639
I know why: my term is almost over, and
they don't know if they'll re-elect me.

262
00:23:00,577 --> 00:23:05,026
- So the inspector came for you?
- Yes. I am the political secretary.

263
00:23:04,975 --> 00:23:09,253
- Even dad's medallion? - You forgot
we gave our gold to the homeland?

264
00:23:09,215 --> 00:23:12,810
- <i>This</i> guy wants to <i>have</i> me exiled!
Exaggerated! -Yea, exaggerated.

265
00:23:12,783 --> 00:23:15,969
For a few ﬂowers you picked
in town hall's garden?

266
00:23:15,953 --> 00:23:19,617
A few flowers? I make funeral
wreaths for the whole province!

267
00:23:19,725 --> 00:23:23,320
By this time you should be mayor,
not dealing with wreaths!

268
00:23:23,305 --> 00:23:25,239
But you are what you are.

269
00:23:25,340 --> 00:23:28,844
Of course! I'm in idiot! A wimp.
What more?

270
00:23:28,826 --> 00:23:31,056
A dissolute, that's what you are!

271
00:23:31,068 --> 00:23:35,767
My money is not enough! You gotta steal it
from the school to maintain prostitutes!

272
00:23:35,717 --> 00:23:38,345
If they fire you, <i>I'll</i> be happy!

273
00:23:38,341 --> 00:23:42,084
- Nobody's going to tire me.
- What if they find out about the airport?

274
00:23:42,056 --> 00:23:45,594
It was the aeronautical committee
that picked my land.

275
00:23:45,572 --> 00:23:51,454
Of course! He bought the whole committee!
And now you get involved because of him.

276
00:23:51,374 --> 00:23:55,186
Yes, but the funds for the rural houses?
And for the livestock increment?

277
00:23:55,157 --> 00:23:56,989
How did we get our car?

278
00:23:57,010 --> 00:23:59,729
You even went to Rome
on foot for the Duce.

279
00:23:59,722 --> 00:24:03,056
Who didn't want to see you
and you even got flat feet.

280
00:24:04,048 --> 00:24:05,095
Rosa,

281
00:24:05,128 --> 00:24:09,782
the whole town says that it's you who
sent me to Rome, to be with Don Carmine.

282
00:24:09,728 --> 00:24:13,847
I don't care about what this town says!
I don't have to account to anyone!

283
00:24:13,808 --> 00:24:16,516
- To me, yes!
- Damn! One of these days...

284
00:24:16,530 --> 00:24:18,464
- Ouch!
- What's up?

285
00:24:18,632 --> 00:24:22,796
My tooth aches! One of these
days I'll have to go to the dentist.

286
00:24:24,383 --> 00:24:26,738
- Good night.
- Good night.

287
00:24:26,738 --> 00:24:30,891
- Here, I made a warm brick for your feet.
- Drink, ifs good for you.

288
00:24:30,851 --> 00:24:33,422
All three of us will end up in a street.

289
00:24:33,417 --> 00:24:37,240
- They can't accuse you,
you're not on the list. - I know.

290
00:24:37,212 --> 00:24:40,216
- You never took advantage of anything.
- I know.

291
00:24:40,205 --> 00:24:44,403
- For a few cents you run everywhere
from morning to night. - I know.

292
00:24:44,509 --> 00:24:46,648
So why are you scared?

293
00:24:46,780 --> 00:24:52,287
Dear sisters, when such important
people come, we should all be scared.

294
00:24:52,340 --> 00:24:56,413
Be happy that I'm bigger than
you and I can't touch you.

295
00:24:56,515 --> 00:25:04,377

everywhere is full of trash!

296
00:25:25,783 --> 00:25:29,401
- Di Gennaro. - Here!
- Your composition was the best.

297
00:25:30,255 --> 00:25:32,986
Lets' do this, since
he doesn't know you.

298
00:25:33,116 --> 00:25:35,858
If he reads a name
at random in the register,

299
00:25:35,857 --> 00:25:39,714
whatever names he calls,
you stand up and read your composition.

300
00:25:39,725 --> 00:25:42,251
- So if he calls someone else,
I have to stand up? - Yes.

301
00:25:42,416 --> 00:25:45,499
- And if he calls me?
- You answer anyway, silly!

302
00:25:47,650 --> 00:25:51,177
Every cautious and wise man
must take care of his future.

303
00:25:51,363 --> 00:25:53,946
Our Duce takes care of us Italians.

304
00:25:54,613 --> 00:25:58,493
Yes, but as the saying goes:
"Help yourself, to get the Duce's help!“

305
00:25:58,457 --> 00:26:01,768
Our motto is:
"Better an insurance without accidents,

306
00:26:01,752 --> 00:26:04,119
than an accident without insurance. <i>"</i>

307
00:26:04,122 --> 00:26:07,456
Yes, I'm familiar.
That's a quote by Mussolini, right?

308
00:26:07,756 --> 00:26:10,691
No, by one of our advertising experts.

309
00:26:11,529 --> 00:26:12,633
Come in!

310
00:26:15,543 --> 00:26:20,845
I made you come here to
to introduce Omero Battifiori.

311
00:26:20,776 --> 00:26:23,461
From the Insurance Department
in Rome.

312
00:26:23,457 --> 00:26:27,166
- My pleasure. - "Insurances are
the bread for tomorrow. <i>"</i>

313
00:26:27,138 --> 00:26:31,336
- Is this also by the advertising expert?
- No, this is by Mussolini.

314
00:26:31,296 --> 00:26:33,640
Ah, right.

315
00:26:34,623 --> 00:26:39,925
I leave him in your hands. Explain to
the kids what advantages does...

316
00:26:39,856 --> 00:26:44,623
- The Balilla policy offers!
- Precisely! I leave you in good hands.

317
00:26:44,573 --> 00:26:48,578
Good indeed! With a teacher like this,
I'd still be in elementary school.

318
00:26:48,774 --> 00:26:50,424
Go ahead. My respects.

319
00:27:03,903 --> 00:27:05,519
Leave it to me!

320
00:27:05,803 --> 00:27:06,929
Hello?

321
00:27:08,049 --> 00:27:09,141
So then?

322
00:27:10,903 --> 00:27:14,817
- He says he's an insurance agent.
- Of course, he's incognito. -Right.

323
00:27:14,782 --> 00:27:17,217
- Ask him when he's going away.
- Shh. -He didn't say.

324
00:27:17,218 --> 00:27:19,835
When the visit is over, call me back.

325
00:27:20,379 --> 00:27:22,598
Gentlemen, things are going well.

326
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,616
We all have to play his game
and pretend he's an insurance agent.

327
00:27:26,769 --> 00:27:32,492
We have an advantage: we know who he is,
but he doesn't know that we know.

328
00:27:32,420 --> 00:27:34,582
- One to zero!
- Exactly!

329
00:27:34,937 --> 00:27:37,895
As sure as my name is
Salvatore Acquamano,

330
00:27:38,366 --> 00:27:41,074
for Christmas I will. .
Indeed, we will,

331
00:27:41,073 --> 00:27:44,350
send a demijohn of oil
to my cousin in the prefecture.

332
00:27:44,583 --> 00:27:46,483
You wish to call someone?

333
00:27:46,497 --> 00:27:48,659
I don't know. Who should I call?

334
00:27:48,667 --> 00:27:51,568
Anyone, after all, they're all good.

335
00:27:58,103 --> 00:27:59,548
Coletti Andrea.

336
00:28:04,140 --> 00:28:06,666
Sit down, you. He called Coletti.

337
00:28:08,690 --> 00:28:12,558
Let's hear: how did you expound
the theme I assigned this morning?

338
00:28:12,693 --> 00:28:17,494
"Theme: what would you like
to say to our beloved Duce?"

339
00:28:17,697 --> 00:28:18,937
“Elaboration:

340
00:28:19,397 --> 00:28:20,796
I would tell him:

341
00:28:21,066 --> 00:28:22,113
Duce,

342
00:28:22,281 --> 00:28:25,956
if, in the evening,
my mother doesn't pray for you,

343
00:28:26,797 --> 00:28:28,606
I feel like an orphan!"

344
00:28:30,223 --> 00:28:33,249
Very good.
If he goes on like this, he'll get far.

345
00:28:33,241 --> 00:28:37,018
Yes, I must admit:
These kids are a great satisfaction.

346
00:28:37,488 --> 00:28:40,367
Let's hear another one:
Petruzzelli Giovanni.

347
00:28:41,462 --> 00:28:45,763
"Topic: what would you like
to say to our beloved Duce?"

348
00:28:45,999 --> 00:28:50,664
"Duce, if my mother... “

349
00:28:50,613 --> 00:28:52,524
One, two, three!

350
00:28:52,534 --> 00:29:00,624
<i>
of the boy from Portoria.

351
00:29:00,496 --> 00:29:08,165

stands as a giant in history.

352
00:29:22,063 --> 00:29:24,054
Did you see our young soldiers?

353
00:29:24,061 --> 00:29:27,964
They have an advantage.
At that age one learns everything faster.

354
00:29:35,202 --> 00:29:39,423
- I'm sick of this!
- Me too! - Me too!

355
00:29:48,903 --> 00:29:53,500
Come on, it's easy. There are
buttons, like in pants.

356
00:29:53,454 --> 00:29:57,618
Why are you crying? You should see
how cute you look with the mask.

357
00:29:57,582 --> 00:29:59,471
Well, I wouldn't say cute.

358
00:29:59,715 --> 00:30:00,785
There.

359
00:30:02,623 --> 00:30:05,672
Yes,
maybe he was cuter with the mask on!

360
00:30:10,063 --> 00:30:11,679
- May I?
- Freeze!

361
00:30:11,701 --> 00:30:14,443
A soldier must never let go of his riﬂe!

362
00:30:14,737 --> 00:30:17,240
Good! Now give it to me for a moment.

363
00:30:17,603 --> 00:30:20,061
A riﬂe must be thrown, not handed!

364
00:30:20,061 --> 00:30:21,438
My compliments!

365
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:23,718
You're a true Balilla.

366
00:30:24,139 --> 00:30:27,632
But you should also know
that a riﬂe must be always cleaned.

367
00:30:34,983 --> 00:30:37,088
Wake up, young man, wake up!

368
00:30:37,191 --> 00:30:38,261
Yes sir!

369
00:30:40,463 --> 00:30:43,660
The 5th year students are the best,
but today they're not here.

370
00:30:43,646 --> 00:30:47,139
This way they'll never learn.
The swinging is wrong.

371
00:30:47,451 --> 00:30:50,216
See?
This is the grasp.

372
00:30:50,290 --> 00:30:52,600
Surely, you're good at it.

373
00:30:52,750 --> 00:30:53,842
I get DY-

374
00:31:14,303 --> 00:31:17,022
Third place at the Fascist
games in Rome.

375
00:31:45,303 --> 00:31:46,839
Rome on the phone!

376
00:31:47,241 --> 00:31:49,414
Rome called. Oh my God!

377
00:31:54,303 --> 00:31:56,567
- Thank you very much, Madam.
- You're welcome.

378
00:31:56,906 --> 00:31:58,044
Hello?

379
00:31:58,622 --> 00:32:01,660
Mrs. Battifiori?
It's the police commissioner of Bari.

380
00:32:02,057 --> 00:32:07,348
Your son is in jail, he killed someone
who didn't want to insure himself.

381
00:32:10,337 --> 00:32:12,795
Mom, it's me. Don't you recognize me?

382
00:32:12,798 --> 00:32:15,051
No, each time you change voice.

383
00:32:15,054 --> 00:32:18,240
So, when you hear a voice
that's not mine, ifs me.

384
00:32:18,638 --> 00:32:20,083
I'll be back soon.

385
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:25,895
I got a dozen names from the porter.
I bet I can insure them all in two days!

386
00:32:26,372 --> 00:32:29,842
I'll be back after tomorrow, the 27th,
just in time for the salary.

387
00:32:29,821 --> 00:32:33,678
Ah! Please iron my black shirt,
the 28th I'm going to listen to the Duce.

388
00:32:33,649 --> 00:32:38,086
I'll take you with me, aren't you happy?
Old? But if you're only 23!

389
00:32:38,412 --> 00:32:42,895
So I'll pick you up later and I'll take
you out to dinner. Like two sweethearts.

390
00:32:42,941 --> 00:32:46,457
- Sorry. - Please.
- Say hi to the Countess of Lavarone.

391
00:32:46,518 --> 00:32:50,250
- Omero says hi, Adeli'!
- Thanks.

392
00:32:50,502 --> 00:32:56,043
My son, you're completely crazy.
Your beloved dad always said that.

393
00:32:55,976 --> 00:32:58,604
"Clotilde, we got a crazy son!"

394
00:32:59,863 --> 00:33:04,300
What? Yes, Mom, I sent you a little kiss.
No Miss, I won't double!.

395
00:33:04,255 --> 00:33:07,759
Bye mom. Don't go out every night
to dance with men!

396
00:33:08,383 --> 00:33:09,441
Bye!

397
00:33:16,223 --> 00:33:20,581
- It's pointless to insist. -The guy
from Rome is coming. - Send them out.

398
00:33:20,570 --> 00:33:21,708
But listen,

399
00:33:21,736 --> 00:33:26,549
- we've always payed the rent, right?
- But now you have to find another house.

400
00:33:26,570 --> 00:33:28,766
But how? We're also unemployed.

401
00:33:28,773 --> 00:33:31,868
Go and volunteer in Spain,
they'll pay you 2000 lire.

402
00:33:31,858 --> 00:33:36,136
- Why should my sons go? - Go yourself,
I just came back from Africa.

403
00:33:36,090 --> 00:33:39,811
That's my house, and now I need it.
Saverio, see them out.

404
00:33:39,781 --> 00:33:44,218
- This way, Don't be loud.
- Why are you so rude?

405
00:33:49,383 --> 00:33:51,966
- Is anybody in?
- No, go ahead.

406
00:33:52,398 --> 00:33:53,593
Thanks a lot.

407
00:33:54,543 --> 00:33:55,590
Come.

408
00:33:56,041 --> 00:34:00,137
As if we didn't know that he wants
to rent to the brothel's owner!

409
00:34:00,101 --> 00:34:05,505
- One of these evenings, he won't
make it home. - Please be quiet! Hush!

410
00:34:06,054 --> 00:34:08,421
My questions might seem indiscreet,

411
00:34:08,422 --> 00:34:12,996
but when submitting an insurance policy,
we want to know everything on the insured.

412
00:34:12,949 --> 00:34:15,930
As the saying goes:
"life, death and miracles".

413
00:34:17,148 --> 00:34:20,345
- It's a bit dusty.
- Yes, yes.

414
00:34:21,423 --> 00:34:26,759
So, fire and theft...
What is your yearly income?

415
00:34:28,183 --> 00:34:33,451
Well... as you know...
mayors don't have an income.

416
00:34:33,496 --> 00:34:39,481
I know, but you own...
a property of...

417
00:34:41,503 --> 00:34:42,789
. . 495 acres.

418
00:34:44,097 --> 00:34:45,155
Yes.

419
00:34:45,192 --> 00:34:47,229
Well, but said like that...

420
00:34:47,240 --> 00:34:48,958
495 acres seem...

421
00:34:50,286 --> 00:34:52,618
such a big thing.
Then, in the end,

422
00:34:52,715 --> 00:34:54,581
it's a poor, arid land.

423
00:34:54,701 --> 00:34:58,046
Don't be modest, you're a rich man!
Let me say it.

424
00:34:58,097 --> 00:35:00,566
Well, the little I have, I earned it.

425
00:35:02,290 --> 00:35:04,270
Ha! With sweat and tears!

426
00:35:06,523 --> 00:35:08,594
- It's hot.
- Right, right.

427
00:35:09,694 --> 00:35:11,583
What kind of car do you own?

428
00:35:14,095 --> 00:35:15,836
A small car...

429
00:35:15,858 --> 00:35:20,841
- A pedal car?
- No! A car, a small "Lancia".

430
00:35:20,971 --> 00:35:24,054
A small "Aprilia“?
I'll put “small Aprilia".

431
00:35:24,691 --> 00:35:26,147
Education degree?

432
00:35:26,889 --> 00:35:28,152
Well...

433
00:35:28,315 --> 00:35:32,365
When I was 16, my father died
and I had to give up.

434
00:35:32,943 --> 00:35:37,198
Then... Let's put "Junior high diploma".

435
00:35:37,152 --> 00:35:39,598
No, elementary school.

436
00:35:41,919 --> 00:35:45,059
Well, too bad you had to interrupt.

437
00:35:47,545 --> 00:35:49,309
And... honorary titles?

438
00:35:49,569 --> 00:35:52,584
None, but in town they call me...

439
00:35:52,573 --> 00:35:54,246
Ah, yes! "Big Fork"!

440
00:35:54,845 --> 00:35:58,201
Sorry, I've overheard it
unwittingly at the Union Club.

441
00:35:58,181 --> 00:36:02,345
The people at the Circolo joke,
but the others call me "Knight".

442
00:36:02,410 --> 00:36:04,640
- Jokingly?
- No, for real.

443
00:36:05,034 --> 00:36:09,437
- You abuse alcohol?
- No, I don't drink, I don't smoke.

444
00:36:09,396 --> 00:36:12,946
I'm like Him: "Bacchus, tobacco... “

445
00:36:13,092 --> 00:36:14,821
Yes, however, He...

446
00:36:16,696 --> 00:36:18,972
Oh, yes. That one, me too!

447
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:20,502
Why, not me too?

448
00:36:21,679 --> 00:36:24,102
This 'bad' habit of us Italians!

449
00:36:24,698 --> 00:36:26,302
By the way, children?

450
00:36:26,963 --> 00:36:29,751
Yes, two. A girl and a boy.

451
00:36:33,142 --> 00:36:35,782
- Oh. the girl is a teacher, right?
- Yes.

452
00:36:35,877 --> 00:36:38,016
- What's her name?
- Elvira.

453
00:36:38,463 --> 00:36:40,409
- How old is she?
- 25.

454
00:36:41,518 --> 00:36:42,758
She's engaged?

455
00:36:44,497 --> 00:36:46,750
No.
The boy's name is Vittorio.

456
00:36:46,981 --> 00:36:49,450
No, the boy doesn't interest me.

457
00:36:49,943 --> 00:36:54,710
I'm going to read you the form,
Dr. Cariddi. So, you have done...

458
00:36:54,812 --> 00:36:56,803
No! I didn't do anything!

459
00:36:57,055 --> 00:37:01,014
What did you understand?
This is not a police interrogatory.

460
00:37:00,978 --> 00:37:06,405
- So, you've done your military service?
- No, due to thoracic insufficiency.

461
00:37:07,223 --> 00:37:09,988
Yes.
You seem a little nervous.

462
00:37:10,850 --> 00:37:13,547
- You receive a war pension...
- Yes!

463
00:37:14,841 --> 00:37:16,115
And how come?

464
00:37:16,853 --> 00:37:20,096
Unfit for service,
and you get a war pension? - Why?

465
00:37:20,339 --> 00:37:21,761
I said “yes”?

466
00:37:21,784 --> 00:37:24,822
- I didn't understand the question.
- Oh, that's it!

467
00:37:24,815 --> 00:37:26,021
He seems crazy.

468
00:37:26,056 --> 00:37:29,697
Professor, number <i>7</i> has an headache.
Can I give him a cachet?

469
00:37:29,671 --> 00:37:31,275
What's this "cachet"?

470
00:37:32,355 --> 00:37:37,168
Those small white rounds...
Did you see the one in the advertisement?

471
00:37:37,417 --> 00:37:39,590
- But it's called "cialdino"!
- Right.

472
00:37:39,599 --> 00:37:42,500
- Give him a very Italian "cialdino"!
- Ok.

473
00:37:42,892 --> 00:37:46,453
- Will it still be good for him?
- Sure! - So give him a cialdino!

474
00:37:46,783 --> 00:37:49,775
Your signature here, and it's all good.

475
00:37:58,543 --> 00:38:00,853
You're looking at my references.

476
00:38:01,426 --> 00:38:03,349
These are my mementos.

477
00:38:04,597 --> 00:38:07,988
That's my Action Squad.
They called us the "Alala".

478
00:38:09,098 --> 00:38:10,293
Oh, thanks.

479
00:38:11,068 --> 00:38:12,411
And that's me.

480
00:38:13,545 --> 00:38:14,580
I see.

481
00:38:14,810 --> 00:38:19,259
Here it's us again, the "Alala".
Leaving for a punitive expedition.

482
00:38:20,902 --> 00:38:22,552
You look really good.

483
00:38:23,783 --> 00:38:25,012
Who are these?

484
00:38:25,565 --> 00:38:29,251
Farmers on strike, at the Chamber of Work.
- Ah, strikers.

485
00:38:30,479 --> 00:38:31,878
And what is this?

486
00:38:31,928 --> 00:38:34,647
The Chamber of Work,
half an hour later.

487
00:38:37,103 --> 00:38:41,779
- A fine work! - To reestablish order,
it takes tough action! - Well, yes.

488
00:38:42,647 --> 00:38:45,116
This is us toasting to victory.

489
00:38:45,387 --> 00:38:48,163
That's Don Salvatore!
He too was in the Squad?

490
00:38:48,152 --> 00:38:51,520
No, he provided the trucks
to disperse the strikers.

491
00:38:51,504 --> 00:38:53,598
They were all his farmers.

492
00:38:53,868 --> 00:38:55,848
And this? You recognize him?

493
00:38:56,817 --> 00:38:58,262
It's De Vincenzi!

494
00:39:00,423 --> 00:39:03,586
- Why is he...?
- Then, we didn't joke around.

495
00:39:03,574 --> 00:39:08,375
He refused to shout "Hail, Duce!",
and I made him go around in underwear.

496
00:39:10,183 --> 00:39:12,550
- Did he shout it after that?
- No.

497
00:39:14,263 --> 00:39:17,779
Commandant!
10 more requests to volunteer in Spain.

498
00:39:19,490 --> 00:39:20,548
Go!

499
00:39:23,663 --> 00:39:28,305
These youngsters are hot heads.
They all want to go.

500
00:39:28,604 --> 00:39:32,199
Were it for them, would be left in town
only women, old people and children.

501
00:39:32,179 --> 00:39:33,920
And those of the Club.

502
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:35,839
Well, of course.

503
00:39:36,221 --> 00:39:38,918
You're certainly the first in the list.

504
00:39:39,758 --> 00:39:40,805
No...

505
00:39:41,246 --> 00:39:43,066
Not really the first.

506
00:39:43,863 --> 00:39:45,695
Indeed... May I?

507
00:39:45,715 --> 00:39:49,663
- I believe my name isn't on there yet.
- No, ifs not.

508
00:39:49,735 --> 00:39:52,488
- As I said, it's not on here.
- It's not.

509
00:39:53,775 --> 00:39:55,163
Salvagnini!

510
00:39:55,904 --> 00:39:59,386
Salvagnini!
Come here, you dummy!

511
00:39:59,594 --> 00:40:03,519
I told that idiot 20 times to
write my name down!

512
00:40:05,547 --> 00:40:06,742
Here you go!

513
00:40:08,423 --> 00:40:12,633
- Good morning, baron. May I?
- Go ahead. - Thank you, very kind.

514
00:40:15,180 --> 00:40:19,230
Maybe he came here to ask us
to join his Party all together.

515
00:40:20,156 --> 00:40:23,865
Since he is a high officer,
it's better to be cautious.

516
00:40:23,982 --> 00:40:27,646
Dear engineer, we use so much caution
that we could export it.

517
00:40:27,620 --> 00:40:32,308
I don't feel like having more troubles,
just to play Don Quixote.

518
00:40:32,254 --> 00:40:35,997
If only there were more Don Quixote
and less Don Abbondio!

519
00:40:36,130 --> 00:40:39,668
I've heard that
you get up late in the morning.

520
00:40:39,649 --> 00:40:42,732
You heard wrong,
cause I don't get up at all.

521
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:44,596
- Oh, right.
- Tell me.

522
00:40:44,616 --> 00:40:49,031
- I heard that last year the hail
ruined your harvest. - Yes, that's true.

523
00:40:48,981 --> 00:40:51,791
- That could happen again.
- Oh no!

524
00:40:51,782 --> 00:40:57,198
- For, if it happens again, it means that
God is really mad at me. - Right! Right...

525
00:40:57,783 --> 00:41:01,731
I think you'd make more business here if,
instead of the hail,

526
00:41:01,697 --> 00:41:04,462
you'd insure citizens against thefts.

527
00:41:05,092 --> 00:41:08,710
- Why, are there many thieves here?
- Not more than elsewhere.

528
00:41:08,679 --> 00:41:11,296
But the local thieves are smarter!

529
00:41:11,741 --> 00:41:14,460
Think, none of them
has ever been arrested.

530
00:41:14,459 --> 00:41:18,578
- Here goes "Seven butts".
- Who's that, the hotel porter?

531
00:41:18,878 --> 00:41:22,189
It's not a nickname,
it's his real last name.

532
00:41:22,290 --> 00:41:25,248
Then, <i>as</i> a nickname,
call him "Mario Rossi"!

533
00:41:40,543 --> 00:41:44,958
As a local girl, you should be
my guide to the beauties of this place.

534
00:41:45,173 --> 00:41:49,485
- The beauties? Here, the prettiest thing
is the public wash house. - No!

535
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:53,986
They told me about important public
works: land reclamation, the airport...

536
00:41:53,944 --> 00:41:55,901
We go out together tomorrow?

537
00:41:58,023 --> 00:41:59,058
Well?

538
00:42:00,943 --> 00:42:06,052
I was telling her that I would like
to visit the airport. I've heard of it.

539
00:42:07,815 --> 00:42:11,774
- From whom?
- From De Vincenzi, and those at the Club.

540
00:42:11,850 --> 00:42:14,706
Whatever say those defeatists,
is not true.

541
00:42:14,810 --> 00:42:16,949
Actually, they spoke well of it.

542
00:42:16,954 --> 00:42:21,596
Indeed, I was surprised that they too
appreciated the works of the Regime.

543
00:42:21,541 --> 00:42:24,112
- Oh, really?
- Yes. - Strange!

544
00:42:25,441 --> 00:42:29,423
Well, there's actually nothing
worth seeing, but if you're really

545
00:42:29,391 --> 00:42:32,281
interested, I can drive you for a tour.

546
00:42:32,370 --> 00:42:35,203
- No, thanks.
- I thought you were interested.

547
00:42:35,197 --> 00:42:36,881
Yes, I'm interested.

548
00:42:36,905 --> 00:42:39,476
But since the young lady offered,

549
00:42:39,923 --> 00:42:41,971
I wouldn't want to offend her.

550
00:42:41,977 --> 00:42:44,241
You won't send me around dad, huh?

551
00:42:44,247 --> 00:42:47,478
Of course "pretty teacher"
put her hands on him!

552
00:43:08,423 --> 00:43:17,320
<i>
Celestial Serenade...</i>

553
00:43:17,172 --> 00:43:20,517
- Sorry, I thought you were alone.
- Be quiet!

554
00:43:20,494 --> 00:43:24,112
- From our balcony we can't see anything.
- Go ahead.

555
00:43:26,010 --> 00:43:28,024
You see how the others do?

556
00:43:28,619 --> 00:43:31,281
What’re you waiting for?
That they call you?

557
00:43:31,277 --> 00:43:35,464
- Ok, I'm going.
- And you leave me here like an idiot?

558
00:43:39,863 --> 00:43:42,082
He wants to visit the airport.

559
00:43:42,313 --> 00:43:44,156
Oh, so sorry!

560
00:43:44,814 --> 00:43:47,772
- And also the land reclamation works.
- No!

561
00:43:49,063 --> 00:43:52,806
“L killed the Ethiopians
and I'm proud of it... "

- No, it's just a small hole.
- A small hole? It's a landslide!

588
00:47:17,173 --> 00:47:20,677
Here, this is a colonial house.
This is another one.

589

Over there there's the tools warehouse,
that one is the cowshed.

The chicken run, the pigsty.

00:47:52,223 --> 00:47:56,581
- What happened? - I don't know.
- May I? - Of course.

597
00:47:57,138 --> 00:48:00,745
- I'm sorry for this hitch...
- I am not. On the contrary!

598
00:48:04,137 --> 00:48:05,662
There they are!

599
00:48:14,823 --> 00:48:19,420
- It's a trifle! The carburetor.
- Please, take your time.

600
00:48:23,295 --> 00:48:24,365
Let's go!

601
00:48:26,063 --> 00:48:27,462
Everything is fine.

602
00:48:30,823 --> 00:48:36,057
Here, this is a colonial house.
That's the cowshed, the pigsty...

603
00:48:36,091 --> 00:48:40,471
And here too there are 30 head of cattle.
All dairy cattle!

604
00:48:40,523 --> 00:48:42,366
- I see, I see.
- There!

605
00:48:46,743 --> 00:48:49,314
- You like?
- A lot, yes.

606
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,009
Yes, yes! I must admit...

607
00:48:52,022 --> 00:48:55,481
hall we continue?
So, we can see also the other houses.

608
00:48:56,151 --> 00:48:59,507
- After you. - Women and mayors first.
- Thank you.

609
00:49:37,417 --> 00:49:42,093
Saverio, what's going on? It stops
every 300 feet, I don't understand.

610
00:49:42,039 --> 00:49:45,441
- What can I do? It's the engine.
- Now it's the coil.

611
00:49:54,943 --> 00:49:57,332
I apologize, it's an old car.

612
00:49:57,774 --> 00:50:00,755
But didn't you understand
that this is a trick?

613
00:50:03,613 --> 00:50:06,127
It's my trick to be alone with you.

614
00:50:15,264 --> 00:50:17,028
Hurry up with that cow!

615
00:50:25,503 --> 00:50:28,507
Here too 30 head of cattle.
All dairy cattle!

616
00:50:28,495 --> 00:50:31,726
Strange, here too a cow with
a horn shorter than the other.

617
00:50:31,704 --> 00:50:36,551
That's quite common,
that a horn is shorter than the other.

618
00:50:36,498 --> 00:50:38,785
Right, Elvira? - I don't know.

619
00:50:38,786 --> 00:50:40,982
Yes, ifs exactly so! Look!

620
00:50:42,832 --> 00:50:44,459
Let's go, Saverio.

621
00:50:58,059 --> 00:51:01,211
Idiot! Why did you stop?
The visit is over!

622
00:51:01,201 --> 00:51:03,158
I know! The gas, too.

623
00:51:10,303 --> 00:51:14,012
- Thank God, it's small.
- I apologize, but this bastards...

624
00:51:13,989 --> 00:51:17,107
- Dad, did you see how high it flew?
- I saw.

625
00:51:17,095 --> 00:51:20,087
- Your son? - Yes.
- I've a cute brother, don't I?

626
00:51:20,074 --> 00:51:23,339
It's him, who has a pretty sister.
Oh, I'm sorry Saverio!

627
00:51:23,325 --> 00:51:24,861
Oh, sorry Saverio!

628
00:51:29,010 --> 00:51:32,150
- Is he going to land here?
- I hope not. - Why?

629
00:51:32,134 --> 00:51:36,014
- Er... it would mean it's got a fault.
- Oh, right.

630
00:51:35,977 --> 00:51:38,491
- But he's landing here.
- Right now!

631
00:51:38,494 --> 00:51:40,201
Shall we continue our tour?

632
00:51:40,217 --> 00:51:43,801
- Let's watch the landing. - You want to?
- Here it comes.

633
00:51:43,771 --> 00:51:47,708
That is a small plane Caproncino CA 100.

634
00:51:47,774 --> 00:51:51,881
You're an expert.
To me, it just looked like a plane.

635
00:51:57,850 --> 00:52:02,162
Some people, rather than airplanes,
I'd let them drive carts, you think?

636
00:52:02,125 --> 00:52:03,729
I'd say seaplanes.

637
00:52:03,979 --> 00:52:07,563
Criminals! This is not a landing strip,
this is a swamp!

638
00:52:08,022 --> 00:52:10,707
They're inept and they blame the airport.

639
00:52:10,704 --> 00:52:14,595
- This was constructed in a workmanlike!
- This here? - Yes.

640
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:15,994
It's quicksand!

641
00:52:16,023 --> 00:52:18,094
See? Even kids can land.

642
00:52:18,105 --> 00:52:21,507
Yes, dad. But instead of wheels
we had to use corks!

643
00:52:22,856 --> 00:52:26,998
- This will teach you. - Teach what?
- Everything! He's an ass!

644
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:29,486
Don't cry!
Let's go.

645
00:52:30,423 --> 00:52:34,291
- And this is Alberobello.
- It's not very far.

646
00:52:34,257 --> 00:52:38,615
11 miles, and 11 miles back
that's a good bike ride!

647
00:52:38,743 --> 00:52:43,010
I haven't been on a bike since when
I was in the Avanguardisti cyclists.

648
00:52:46,103 --> 00:52:47,992
What a wonderful man!

649
00:52:48,005 --> 00:52:51,657
I saw him last year in Bari,
at the Levante exhibition.

650
00:52:51,948 --> 00:52:56,363
He came driving his plane.
I think no woman could resist him.

651
00:52:56,617 --> 00:52:57,960
Not even you?

652
00:52:58,346 --> 00:53:02,419
Well, don't misjudge me.
For me, more than a man, he's a symbol.

653
00:53:02,379 --> 00:53:06,407
Yeah, it would be like having sex
with your homeland!

654
00:53:06,376 --> 00:53:08,890
These "trulli" are built stone on stone

655
00:53:08,896 --> 00:53:13,754
because the Marquis of Grottalunga,
in 1500, didn't let the farmers use lime.

656
00:53:13,698 --> 00:53:17,282
So, if a farmer didn't pay his taxes,
which were heavy,

657
00:53:17,253 --> 00:53:21,030
they could demolish his house
with a rope pulled by two oxes.

658
00:53:21,006 --> 00:53:25,751
- Two oxes? - You know,
those who didn't pay taxes. -I see.

659
00:53:25,693 --> 00:53:29,402
- . . 1649, named "Guercio delle Puglie"...
- Goes on for long?

660
00:53:29,378 --> 00:53:32,097
- Until he gets some money.
- Right away!

661
00:53:32,241 --> 00:53:34,300
Here's one lira. Good job!

662
00:53:34,427 --> 00:53:36,111
What were we saying?

663
00:53:36,131 --> 00:53:40,261
That my wife will have to love her country
in a uniform, not in a nightgown!

664
00:53:40,228 --> 00:53:43,425
What's that got to?
It was just to say, but...

665
00:53:45,503 --> 00:53:46,618
Elvira...

666
00:53:46,736 --> 00:53:51,094
These "trulli" are built stone on stone
because the Marquis of Grottalunga...

667
00:53:51,055 --> 00:53:54,798
- I know!
- so, if a farmer didn't pay...

668
00:53:54,771 --> 00:53:56,887
No, I'm paying right now!

669
00:53:56,900 --> 00:53:59,005
Here. Thanks.

670
00:54:02,630 --> 00:54:05,964
What a smart system,
these Marquis of Grottalunga!

671
00:54:06,780 --> 00:54:10,023
They would tear down the houses,
worse than bandits!

672
00:54:10,139 --> 00:54:14,303
If I owned one of these Trulli,
I'd have set the Marquis on fire. Right?

673
00:54:14,265 --> 00:54:15,357
Yes, sure.

674
00:54:15,502 --> 00:54:16,583
Miss...

675
00:54:16,613 --> 00:54:19,924
- Aren't you Mrs. Nunzia's daughter?
- Yes, but...

676
00:54:20,137 --> 00:54:23,744
Carmela! She was in service
in our home for many years.

677
00:54:23,716 --> 00:54:27,311
- I held her in my arms.
- Lucky you who managed ma'am!

678
00:54:27,497 --> 00:54:30,285
- You've become so beautiful!
- It's true.

679
00:54:30,278 --> 00:54:33,293
May you grow up well and healthy!
Come in.

680
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:37,911
No, thanks, Carmela. Unless...
you want to visit a Trullo.

681
00:54:37,950 --> 00:54:41,432
Let's visit it!
At least we'll avoid the kids. Thanks.

682
00:54:43,063 --> 00:54:47,978
- Come on in. - Thanks.
- Make yourself at home. - Very kind.

683
00:54:48,018 --> 00:54:51,283
- Please have a seat.
- Thanks. It's pretty here!

684
00:54:52,583 --> 00:54:56,167
- Is this your husband?
- No, Carmela! What are you saying?

685
00:54:57,103 --> 00:54:59,891
She was upset, you could have said yes.

686
00:54:59,970 --> 00:55:03,361
- Is he a stranger? - Yes.
- Yes, he's from Rome.

687
00:55:03,341 --> 00:55:08,598
Beautiful Rome! There's the Pope.
And Mussolini, that bandit!

688
00:55:10,223 --> 00:55:14,399
- What are you saying, Madam?
- I remember, he killed many people.

689
00:55:14,853 --> 00:55:19,814
- No, she's confusing him with the bandit
Musolino. - She might be shot for that.

690
00:55:20,097 --> 00:55:24,614
You're wrong. The one in Rome
is Mussolini, a good person.

691
00:55:24,650 --> 00:55:28,291
- He might be a good person,
but he killed so many people.

692
00:55:28,602 --> 00:55:29,660
Again!

693
00:55:30,354 --> 00:55:34,507
- Wait a second, I'm going
to get a little rooster. - Go ahead.

694
00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:37,848
So you can bring it
to your mother the Marquise.

695
00:55:37,910 --> 00:55:40,481
I didn't know your mother is a Marquise.

696
00:55:40,522 --> 00:55:46,131
Sure! Of the Marquises of Grottalunga.
Once, the whole town was theirs.

697
00:55:46,056 --> 00:55:48,582
- Excuse me.
- Go ahead.

698
00:55:50,948 --> 00:55:54,441
Elvira, I am really sorry for earlier.
I didn't know...

699
00:55:54,418 --> 00:55:57,058
- Of what? Shall we go?
- Why?

700
00:55:58,759 --> 00:56:01,478
Since even this Trullo has been yours...

701
00:56:05,383 --> 00:56:08,796
These "trulli“ are built stone on stone...

702
00:56:08,773 --> 00:56:15,634
because the Marquis of Grottalunga
didn't let the farmers us lime.

703
00:56:16,023 --> 00:56:17,331
Mom, ifs me!

704
00:56:17,890 --> 00:56:19,267
HOW' um
e who",

705
00:56:19,413 --> 00:56:22,041
God!
If I don't joke she won't believe me.

706
00:56:22,037 --> 00:56:26,247
Hallo, Frau Battifiori. This is the office
of Field Marshal Gohring.

707
00:56:26,539 --> 00:56:31,193
See, now you recognized me!
I didn't leave, that's why I called you.

708
00:56:31,139 --> 00:56:35,793
No, it's not about work.
What if I came back with a girl?

709
00:56:35,850 --> 00:56:37,739
A girl? Holy Mother!

710
00:56:37,850 --> 00:56:42,048
Adeli', did you hear that?
With all the girl who are in Rome!

711
00:56:42,109 --> 00:56:44,464
Who is she?
Do you know her well?

712
00:56:44,581 --> 00:56:48,233
Does she have a sound standing?
Beware to not get caught up!

713
00:56:48,210 --> 00:56:52,955
You always say you want a grandchild.
To make you one, I need a girl.

714
00:56:53,597 --> 00:56:55,599
The countess is playing bridge?

715
00:56:55,610 --> 00:56:57,556
No, she cleans chicory.

716
00:56:58,487 --> 00:56:59,602
Come in!

717
00:57:01,143 --> 00:57:04,226
Excuse me, sir.
Don Nicola wants to talk to you.

718
00:57:04,218 --> 00:57:05,379
Who's that?

719
00:57:05,712 --> 00:57:07,032
A cuckold!

720
00:57:07,530 --> 00:57:11,592
- I didn't ask about his private matters.
- But everybody knows that!

721
00:57:11,603 --> 00:57:16,131
- Ok, as husband he may have his problems,
but as man, what is he? - He's cuckold!

722
00:57:16,084 --> 00:57:19,600
See? You didn't tell me this!
You know you're a backbiter?

723
00:57:19,575 --> 00:57:22,374
Go on, let in this cuck... er, gentleman.

724
00:57:25,863 --> 00:57:27,001
Come in.

725
00:57:30,063 --> 00:57:34,990
- You probably have heard about me.
- Well, a bit, yes.

726
00:57:34,932 --> 00:57:38,800
I didn't want to bother you,
but my wife insisted so.

727
00:57:38,767 --> 00:57:40,246
You don't know her!

728
00:57:40,275 --> 00:57:42,676
No, but I won't hide I'm curious.

729
00:57:42,921 --> 00:57:45,174
You know what the town says?

730
00:57:46,396 --> 00:57:47,659
Yes, I know.

731
00:57:47,915 --> 00:57:49,895
- And what do you think?
- Well...

732
00:57:49,910 --> 00:57:52,914
I think it's better
not to heed to backbiters.

733
00:57:52,903 --> 00:57:55,793
- Backbiters? But this is the truth!
- Oh!

734
00:57:55,783 --> 00:57:59,378
Everybody knows that
Don Salvatore is an inept, a profiteer!

735
00:57:59,353 --> 00:58:01,913
- Oh! The town says this too!
- Sure!

736
00:58:01,914 --> 00:58:06,454
And believe me, when people talk,
there's always something true.

737
00:58:06,406 --> 00:58:08,158
Well, If you say so.

738
00:58:08,178 --> 00:58:12,411
You see... I have to admit that my wife
is always right.

739
00:58:12,495 --> 00:58:15,942
- You know what she says? - What?
- That I'm an idiot!

740
00:58:17,022 --> 00:58:19,024
- And she's right?
- Precisely!

741
00:58:19,035 --> 00:58:23,017
That is, she's right when she says that
I should be the mayor,

742
00:58:22,987 --> 00:58:24,751
for I got what it takes.

743
00:58:24,769 --> 00:58:26,919
To name one, I have a degree.

744
00:58:26,932 --> 00:58:30,004
The current mayor only
attended elementary school.

745
00:58:29,986 --> 00:58:33,456
- You know how many children I have?
- How many? - Six.

746
00:58:33,633 --> 00:58:36,250
And you know why?
- I can imagine.

747
00:58:36,245 --> 00:58:39,715
- Exactly! To obey the Party's orders.
- You did good!

748
00:58:39,692 --> 00:58:43,151
- I named the last one Littorio.
- Vittorio is a nice name.

749
00:58:43,131 --> 00:58:45,907
Not Vittorio, Littorio, with “L“!
- Great!

750
00:58:45,901 --> 00:58:49,098
The Party asked for gold,
and I gave our wedding rings.

751
00:58:49,077 --> 00:58:52,934
It asked for copper and I gave our pots.
If it asked for my wife...

752
00:58:52,902 --> 00:58:55,610
I don't think we'll get to collect wives.

753
00:58:55,750 --> 00:58:58,333
- I said what I had to say.
- Yeah?

754
00:58:59,412 --> 00:59:03,417
- Sorry for the rant, I feel better now.
- That's what matters.

755
00:59:03,382 --> 00:59:06,272
Anyway, don't worry,
I won't tell anybody.

756
00:59:06,261 --> 00:59:08,207
Well, no! - What, no?

757
00:59:08,380 --> 00:59:10,621
You must tell, and to everybody!

758
00:59:10,623 --> 00:59:13,445
- But why? Never mind.
- What, never mind?

759
00:59:13,788 --> 00:59:17,440
I want that in Rome everybody knows
who is Nicola De Bellis.

760
00:59:17,660 --> 00:59:21,551
You get to know these things
sooner or later, just as I did.

761
00:59:21,519 --> 00:59:22,987
Cover up, please.

762
00:59:23,006 --> 00:59:24,906
- Good-bye.
- Good-bye.

763
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:30,883
Damned spy! He spits poison at us,
instead of thinking about his own home!

764
00:59:30,806 --> 00:59:35,152
What a degenerate country!
We should be united, supportive.

765
00:59:35,111 --> 00:59:40,891
Instead one tells him who knows what,
and others write anonymous letters.

766
00:59:40,814 --> 00:59:44,034
But I knew it, you know?
I know well this rabble!

767
00:59:44,114 --> 00:59:48,256
That's why I told the hotel to deliver
his mail here. And here it is!

768
00:59:48,349 --> 00:59:51,853
- If nobody had talked, he'd have left.
- But he's still here.

769
00:59:51,835 --> 00:59:53,929
And tomorrow is October 28th!

770
00:59:53,935 --> 00:59:58,054
If to the gathering come only the few
usual people, we are screwed!

771
00:59:58,213 --> 00:59:59,271
What?

772
00:59:59,302 --> 01:00:03,864
So you had embezzled the funds for the
fascist Epiphany that "hadn't arrived“!

773
01:00:03,821 --> 01:00:06,097
And you trust anonymous letters?

774
01:00:09,103 --> 01:00:15,543
The town secretary remind everybody
that tomorrow is October 28th,

775
01:00:15,631 --> 01:00:18,464
anniversary of the revolution.

776
01:00:18,591 --> 01:00:24,894
The anniversary must be celebrated
with the usual enthusiasm.

777
01:00:24,983 --> 01:00:28,157
No desertion is allowed!

778
01:00:29,170 --> 01:00:34,529
The black shirt is mandatory, and,
for who has it, the green uniform.

779
01:00:36,888 --> 01:00:40,358
Although unfortunately it should rain,

780
01:00:40,473 --> 01:00:43,920
the umbrella is prohibited.
You got that?

781
01:00:44,207 --> 01:00:50,510
For those who don't have it, in the shop
“ingegnericchio" in the square,

782
01:00:50,634 --> 01:00:55,856
there are on sale black shirts.
But only small sizes!

783
01:00:57,863 --> 01:01:02,448
Gun belts, medallions, fez with fringes,

784
01:01:02,395 --> 01:01:06,013
even for biggest heads!

785
01:01:14,457 --> 01:01:18,735
That's it! Don't let anybody in.
Everything is sold out. Close down!

786
01:01:18,801 --> 01:01:21,179
I told you, there's nothing left!

787
01:01:21,292 --> 01:01:23,852
If you break the window you'll pay!

788
01:01:23,854 --> 01:01:27,392
Go to Mrs. lmmacolata's shop!
Stay away!

789
01:01:27,526 --> 01:01:30,996
Or I'm going to call the police!
Everything is sold out, I said!

790
01:01:30,978 --> 01:01:34,585
Come down! That's it!

791
01:01:37,823 --> 01:01:42,056
If it were my fault, I'd understand.
But women never looked at me.

792
01:01:42,011 --> 01:01:46,061
With this nose and these ears,
who would I marry? An abbess?

793
01:01:46,022 --> 01:01:50,914
I understand, I'm single too.
But the tax on bachelors must be payed!

794
01:01:50,858 --> 01:01:53,759
With what money?
I live from hand to mouth.

795
01:01:53,745 --> 01:01:57,113
Now they'll take my donkey
if I don't pay the arrears.

796
01:01:57,088 --> 01:02:00,672
- Please talk to don Salvatore.
- But that's the law!

797
01:02:00,652 --> 01:02:05,021
Then he can go to hell! I'll rather
eat the donkey than giving it to him!

798
01:02:04,977 --> 01:02:09,699
- So you'll go to jail! Either you pay
or you get married! - Fucking law!

799
01:02:13,823 --> 01:02:18,420
Don Carmine! Don Nicola says that the
municipal guards don't have the uniforms.

800
01:02:18,578 --> 01:02:22,811
Tell Don Nicola to go get it...
Do I have to do everything? And him?

801
01:02:22,775 --> 01:02:26,973
- He probably went back to the inspector.
- No, he's home. His wife's leaving.

802
01:02:26,936 --> 01:02:31,043
- Mrs. Rosa is leaving? Where to?
- To Lecce, for her teeth.

803
01:02:31,414 --> 01:02:33,837
Oh, right.
I forgot about that.

804
01:02:34,135 --> 01:02:35,227
What now?

805
01:02:40,938 --> 01:02:42,110
Saverio, . .

806
01:02:43,010 --> 01:02:45,104
I talk to you from man to man.

807
01:02:45,358 --> 01:02:48,988
- You maybe know that me and Mrs. R...
- I don't know anything!

808
01:02:48,956 --> 01:02:50,310
Yes, you know!

809
01:02:50,342 --> 01:02:53,300
Between us there's nothing wrong,
mind you,

810
01:02:53,287 --> 01:02:55,142
just a certain liking.

811
01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:56,959
No, I don't meddle!

812
01:02:57,409 --> 01:02:58,899
What's that got to?

813
01:02:58,929 --> 01:03:03,548
It's about doing me a favor.
Saverio, you should take a note to her.

814
01:03:03,494 --> 01:03:05,553
A note? What kind of note?

815
01:03:05,884 --> 01:03:07,386
Just a note...

816
01:03:07,542 --> 01:03:09,317
Hey! What do you meddle?

817
01:03:09,338 --> 01:03:13,707
The Squadrist ribbon goes here
on the cuff, not where you put it.

818
01:03:13,661 --> 01:03:17,529
- Did you go to school?
- Ok, I'll attach it again. - Hurry up!

819
01:03:19,183 --> 01:03:23,222
- Gimme needle and thread, I'll do it.
- But this way you'll miss the train.

820
01:03:23,186 --> 01:03:25,143
I'm not going anymore!

821
01:03:25,337 --> 01:03:28,147
- And your tooth?
- It's not hurting anymore!

822
01:03:28,144 --> 01:03:32,468
With the inspector here, you all
lost your mind! As if he were the Duce!

823
01:03:32,623 --> 01:03:36,116
And what are you doing stuck there?
Hurry up!

824
01:03:36,351 --> 01:03:39,946
- Given this flirt between you and him...
- Salvatore!

825
01:03:39,925 --> 01:03:44,579
- Tomorrow you're wearing the hat or the
fez? -The fez. - But it makes you shorter!

826
01:03:44,527 --> 01:03:47,667
With all my problems,
you worry for these trifles!

827
01:03:47,888 --> 01:03:50,095
I was saying, this flirt...

828
01:03:50,741 --> 01:03:54,211
you could use it for your future, right?

829
01:03:54,296 --> 01:03:58,381
Mom! Listen to how I end
dad's speech.

830
01:03:58,342 --> 01:04:04,338
"His word will guide his children ready
to fight for Fascism and for the Duce. "

831
01:04:04,259 --> 01:04:09,049
- Good job! You're such a good writer!
- Yes, very good, but let that go.

832
01:04:09,098 --> 01:04:13,649
I think he would be a great choice.
Where would you find a better match here?

833
01:04:13,602 --> 01:04:17,698
- I'm saying this for you. - And for you.
- Yes, for me too. - For yourself only!

834
01:04:17,661 --> 01:04:19,231
Am I her father or not?

835
01:04:19,256 --> 01:04:22,658
I'm not wearing this uniform,
now I'm a Balilla mosqueteer!

836
01:04:22,642 --> 01:04:25,213
You're an idiot, and you'll wear it!

837
01:04:25,325 --> 01:04:27,601
It's the same old story!

838
01:04:30,681 --> 01:04:34,151
Don't get me wrong,
I don't want to force you.

839
01:04:34,658 --> 01:04:37,468
But if you too like him...

840
01:04:38,625 --> 01:04:43,301
Well, I like him. If you had seen him
at the gym, at the parallel bars!

841
01:04:43,370 --> 01:04:45,168
Oh!
30?

842
01:04:45,726 --> 01:04:50,857
It's only that a young man,
moreover from Rome, should be...

843
01:04:50,977 --> 01:04:53,571
within certain limits, of course...

844
01:04:53,999 --> 01:04:55,216
encouraged.

845
01:04:56,588 --> 01:04:58,750
If you're too intransigent,

846
01:04:59,287 --> 01:05:00,823
one ends up...

847
01:05:01,243 --> 01:05:03,735
giving up.
And then...

848
01:05:03,733 --> 01:05:06,464
Great!
Fine advice you give to your daughter!

849
01:05:06,464 --> 01:05:11,072
All she needs is someone in uniform,
maybe with medals, and she loses her head.

850
01:05:11,024 --> 01:05:14,358
- Oh, right.
- Not again with the officer from Brindisi!

851
01:05:14,338 --> 01:05:17,592
I liked him and we got engaged.
And that's that!

852
01:05:17,572 --> 01:05:21,475
Engaged! For 3 days!
Then he was transferred to Udine!

853
01:05:21,756 --> 01:05:24,669
If only you had encouraged him less...

854
01:05:24,655 --> 01:05:28,853
- Don Salvatore! - What is it?
- Don Carmine wants to talk to you.

855
01:05:32,063 --> 01:05:33,918
Look. I got an idea.

856
01:05:34,108 --> 01:05:36,884
The first pick axe blow of the Duce.
So?

857
01:05:36,879 --> 01:05:40,793
Tomorrow we too must give a pickax blow,
in front of the inspector.

858
01:05:40,757 --> 01:05:44,603
- And where? - An empty house.
Oh, you know which one I chose?

859
01:05:44,697 --> 01:05:47,621
The one you want to rent
to the owner of the...

860
01:05:47,607 --> 01:05:50,998
Good idea!
Thank you for the preference!

861
01:05:50,975 --> 01:05:54,775
What? It took me a year
to get rid of the tenants, and now

862
01:05:54,745 --> 01:05:57,498
you want to knock it down
with pickax blows?

863
01:05:57,496 --> 01:06:04,061
A pickax blow at most can destroy 3 bricks.
The day after you can have it fixed.

864
01:06:05,823 --> 01:06:07,769
Payed by the municipality?

865
01:06:07,779 --> 01:06:10,202
Of course! Payed by the municipality!

866
01:06:10,461 --> 01:06:13,180
Fine, I'll sacrifice myself!

867
01:06:13,330 --> 01:06:16,470
- Stop! Go back in town.
- What do you want? I go where I like.

868
01:06:16,461 --> 01:06:20,580
- Precise orders: general gathering.
- We gotta work in the country!

869
01:06:20,592 --> 01:06:25,393
- No work, today! it's October 28th!
- I'm surprised at you, a farmer like us!

870
01:06:25,426 --> 01:06:30,125
It cares a lot, the land, for your
October 28th! - I must obey orders.

871
01:06:32,103 --> 01:06:35,573
- Let me go, my sister is ill.
- You'll go tomorrow.

872
01:06:35,555 --> 01:06:39,469
- She might get worse any minute!
- If you go, you'll be worse yourself!

873
01:06:39,435 --> 01:06:44,054
- Damn, I'll knock you with the bayonet!
Go! - Let it go don't get in trouble!

874
01:06:46,263 --> 01:06:50,177
- What crap is this? -They probably
brought the cows too, to the gathering.

875
01:07:00,423 --> 01:07:05,065
"The demonstration will have to be
enthusiastic and spontaneous. <i>"</i>

876
01:07:45,823 --> 01:07:48,861
Big families on this side!

877
01:07:58,669 --> 01:08:02,833
- Ignorant! Write "Fascist group"
or it seems a business card! - Ok.

878
01:08:04,823 --> 01:08:10,080
- Dad! - Miss, look after the Balillas!
Mark those rambunctious! Go with them.

879
01:08:12,343 --> 01:08:15,381
Saverio! Take care of this mess!

880
01:08:15,813 --> 01:08:19,511
Did you hear that? Get in line!

881
01:08:19,487 --> 01:08:21,649
I fought and I'm a farmer.

882
01:08:21,659 --> 01:08:27,371
- Shall I go with the veterans or with
the farmers? - Go wherever you want!

883
01:08:27,489 --> 01:08:31,448
- I got 7 children, with whom should I go?
- With anyone, except your wife!

884
01:08:31,413 --> 01:08:33,780
You, over there...

885
01:08:33,783 --> 01:08:38,311
- Fascist merchants, where should they go?
- To jail, all of! - What do you mean?

886
01:08:38,259 --> 01:08:43,925
- Stop it! Oh God! Do it for me!
- I'd send you to jail!

887
01:08:43,978 --> 01:08:49,610
- I'm unemployed, where should I go?
- Nowhere! Unemployed people don't exist!

888
01:08:49,540 --> 01:08:51,850
- So I can leave?
- Do as you wish!

889
01:08:51,855 --> 01:08:54,426
Nobody from the "Azione Nizzarda" group?

890
01:08:54,429 --> 01:08:57,967
What's that?
- What do you care? Stay here and shut up.

891
01:08:57,941 --> 01:09:02,094
- Where should we Forest Rangers go?
- There! Can't you see them?

892
01:09:02,182 --> 01:09:04,560
Saverio! Where should we go?

893
01:09:06,295 --> 01:09:08,775
How rude! Goodness!

894
01:09:09,155 --> 01:09:13,763
What a mess, what a noise.
What a headache! - Want a “cialdino”?

895
01:09:13,711 --> 01:09:17,818
- What is this "cialdino"? - A cachet!
- Speak properly! Cialdino...

896
01:09:18,124 --> 01:09:20,513
His word will guide our children,

897
01:09:20,515 --> 01:09:24,145
ready to fight,
for the fascism and for the Duce!

898
01:09:24,951 --> 01:09:27,568
- Hail!
- To us!

899
01:09:46,263 --> 01:09:50,359
- You saw how he checks everything?
- Nothing eludes him.

900
01:09:51,943 --> 01:09:55,504
- But Miss Elvira is not parading?
- She'll parade now.

901
01:10:39,107 --> 01:10:41,530
When it's needed, it's needed, right?

902
01:10:47,983 --> 01:10:50,168
These are the motorized units.

903
01:10:50,519 --> 01:10:53,591
- Motorized?
- Yes. Brought by truck.

904
01:11:03,463 --> 01:11:08,936
5000 lire bonus to Cioccia Pasquale,
for the birth of his 11th child.

905
01:11:09,435 --> 01:11:10,516
Bravo!

906
01:11:14,284 --> 01:11:17,959
Maybe if he had made fewer,
they'd have come out better!

907
01:11:18,027 --> 01:11:20,496
What've you got to chat, you and him?

908
01:11:20,615 --> 01:11:24,199
Our affairs.
After yesterdays deed you better shut up.

909
01:11:24,250 --> 01:11:28,915
Good job! If everybody had 1 'I children,
we would be 200 million of Italians!

910
01:11:28,859 --> 01:11:31,203
This is the second to last? Good!

911
01:11:33,983 --> 01:11:36,827
200 million?
And then, where will we fit?

912
01:11:36,816 --> 01:11:40,081
That's why we went to war,
to have more vital space.

913
01:11:40,063 --> 01:11:41,792
That's right, it's true.

914
01:11:41,983 --> 01:11:43,280
Excellency!

915
01:11:44,011 --> 01:11:50,155
Tell the Duce that here in Gioiavallata,
lives Lo Russo Giuseppe.

916
01:11:50,379 --> 01:11:53,724
Of course I'll tell him.
He'll be pleased!

917
01:11:53,709 --> 01:11:55,768
Thank you. - You're welcome.

918
01:11:57,774 --> 01:12:01,540
- Why did he call me "Excellency"?
- A habit of our farmers.

919
01:12:01,510 --> 01:12:03,251
If one is dressed well,

920
01:12:03,264 --> 01:12:06,734
even if he's an idiot,
they'll call him "Excellency".

921
01:12:08,332 --> 01:12:09,515
Oh, I see.

922
01:12:10,303 --> 01:12:14,581
You're not leaving for a war,
but for a crusade!

923
01:12:14,535 --> 01:12:20,053
Because when they burn a Christ in Spain,
the one in our church burns too!

924
01:12:19,987 --> 01:12:24,254
Christ is always one!
As one is the King, and one is the Duce!

925
01:12:25,023 --> 01:12:27,503
Comrades, hail to the Duce!

926
01:12:28,903 --> 01:12:31,565
You're leaving with the second group?

927
01:12:34,417 --> 01:12:35,475
Yes.

928
01:12:40,783 --> 01:12:43,093
Congratulations to the newlyweds!

929
01:12:49,658 --> 01:12:54,061
See? If we got married today, we could
have got the wedding price.

930
01:12:54,021 --> 01:12:58,788
I know, but we were not on time.
It means that we'll get married next month.

931
01:12:58,928 --> 01:13:03,252
But I don't get it. After so long,
you decided all of a sudden.

932
01:13:03,214 --> 01:13:04,579
Heh, ifs love!

933
01:13:05,259 --> 01:13:07,637
Damn that bastard!

934
01:16:19,343 --> 01:16:23,405
- Can I tell you something?
- I know it already, but tell me anyway.

935
01:16:24,053 --> 01:16:27,830
I didn't think you'd marry one
who makes 500 lire per month.

936
01:16:28,311 --> 01:16:30,723
- That's what you wanted to say?
- Why?

937
01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:34,315
- What did you think?
- Nothing, since you don't trust me...

938
01:16:34,896 --> 01:16:37,979
Of course I trust you!
I told you everything.

939
01:16:38,687 --> 01:16:40,200
Really everything?

940
01:16:40,341 --> 01:16:44,960
Well no. If I work overtime,
I can get to 700, even 750.

941
01:16:45,099 --> 01:16:49,889
Alright, we'll make them suffice.
And then dad can help us.

942
01:16:49,833 --> 01:16:51,835
- I would prefer not.
- Why?

943
01:16:52,332 --> 01:16:53,629
I love you...

944
01:16:55,030 --> 01:16:57,237
I'll marry you even if dad...

945
01:16:57,241 --> 01:16:59,482
What is it with dad?

946
01:17:00,783 --> 01:17:02,968
Elvira, since...

947
01:17:03,491 --> 01:17:07,917
I got here,
many things about him came up.

948
01:17:08,861 --> 01:17:10,408
Why do you say that?

949
01:17:10,693 --> 01:17:14,163
I don't know what they told you.
They're all jealous.

950
01:17:14,449 --> 01:17:18,556
Poor dad, he was unlucky.
He has always lived in the province.

951
01:17:18,854 --> 01:17:23,018
- People like him, in Rome, you know
where they are? - In Regina Coeli.

952
01:17:22,976 --> 01:17:27,140
- Regina Coeli? What is that?
- Nothing, a new ministry.

953
01:17:27,393 --> 01:17:32,399
- Be well, Tommasi'.
Say hi to your wife. -Yes. - Good-bye.

954
01:17:32,893 --> 01:17:36,557
And you, next time, be quiet.
Next t time don't drink.

955
01:17:36,527 --> 01:17:40,407
- You even punched me. - I know,
I apologize, with you and the others.

956
01:17:40,376 --> 01:17:42,117
I don't like wine.

957
01:17:42,234 --> 01:17:46,455
But if I don't drink, what will give me
the guts to say what I think?

958
01:17:48,207 --> 01:17:49,481
Hello, Doctor.

959
01:17:49,514 --> 01:17:52,711
What are you doing here?
Looking at the landscape?

960
01:17:52,699 --> 01:17:56,226
- It's beautiful, huh?
- I'd <i>say,</i> very uncomfortable.

961
01:17:58,460 --> 01:18:04,376
- Who lives there, says it's worse.
- I meant, it's pretty from the outside.

962
01:18:04,300 --> 01:18:05,961
Oh, yes, from up here.

963
01:18:05,985 --> 01:18:09,922
But if you take a closer look,
it's very different.

964
01:18:45,903 --> 01:18:48,941
- Good afternoon, Doctor.
- Hello.

965
01:18:56,343 --> 01:19:02,965
It's pointless to keep pumping, Doc.
I'm almost dead, and you know that.

966
01:19:03,509 --> 01:19:05,159
Instead, today...

967
01:19:05,961 --> 01:19:09,613
since you know so much,
you're doing better than yesterday!

968
01:19:09,856 --> 01:19:12,666
And yesterday
better that the day before!

969
01:19:12,658 --> 01:19:15,696
- You start lying too?
- Shut up, come on.

970
01:19:17,328 --> 01:19:18,420
All done.

971
01:19:24,303 --> 01:19:25,896
Pay attention, you!

972
01:19:26,785 --> 01:19:29,072
Guess where it is, here or here?

973
01:19:29,144 --> 01:19:33,388
- Here! - Good! Since you guessed,
I'll give you the other one too. Here.

974
01:19:33,342 --> 01:19:36,266
- <i>No, don't listen to her.</i>
- <i>But what should I tell him?</i>

975
01:19:36,260 --> 01:19:37,944
<i>Don't listen to her!</i>

976
01:19:38,092 --> 01:19:40,732
<i>What would it take?
Do it for these children!</i>

977
01:19:40,724 --> 01:19:43,807
I said no, damn it!

978
01:19:44,169 --> 01:19:48,311
- Even if I had to see you all starve!
- Come on, be quiet, Menotti.

979
01:19:48,985 --> 01:19:50,794
Lay down.

980
01:19:51,703 --> 01:19:56,937
- What's the matter? Explain me.
- My father in law never joined the Party.

981
01:19:56,990 --> 01:20:02,941
But Don Carmine says that, if he wears the
black shirt, they'll give us the subsidy.

982
01:20:02,858 --> 01:20:06,112
Tell Don Carmine to come here
and tell me personally.

983
01:20:06,091 --> 01:20:09,277
And then see what I'll do to him,
from my deathbed!

984
01:20:09,503 --> 01:20:12,256
See? You tell him. He listens to you.

985
01:20:12,408 --> 01:20:13,660
Convince him!

986
01:20:14,519 --> 01:20:15,589
Come.

987
01:20:15,621 --> 01:20:19,899
- Ma'am, I'm a stranger, what. . ?
- The gentleman is from Rome. - Yes.

988
01:20:20,107 --> 01:20:21,950
And who gives a shit?

989
01:20:22,971 --> 01:20:24,484
Well, he's right.

990
01:20:26,363 --> 01:20:28,127
Do you see the Duce?

991
01:20:29,341 --> 01:20:30,479
Yes.

992
01:20:30,833 --> 01:20:34,076
Could you tell him something from me?

993
01:20:39,223 --> 01:20:40,668
Sure, tell me.

994
01:20:40,696 --> 01:20:42,755
Tell him to stick it up his...

995
01:20:46,260 --> 01:20:48,729
I don't know if I'll be able to.

996
01:20:53,770 --> 01:20:55,010
Excuse me.

997
01:20:59,423 --> 01:21:00,629
Menotti...

998
01:21:03,031 --> 01:21:05,045
Maybe it's better this way.

999
01:21:05,442 --> 01:21:06,910
Wear the shirt.

1000
01:21:07,075 --> 01:21:10,306
Anyway,
it's the intention that counts, right?

1001
01:21:10,982 --> 01:21:12,029
Doc...

1002
01:21:12,059 --> 01:21:14,710
You tell me this because I'm a wretch.

1003
01:21:15,423 --> 01:21:17,414
But you, would you wear it?

1004
01:22:15,263 --> 01:22:18,358
- You talk, since you're educated.
- Excellency,

1005
01:22:18,463 --> 01:22:20,943
we're honored by your visit.

1006
01:22:20,940 --> 01:22:25,070
The Duce did good things,
inside and outside Italy. - Exactly.

1007
01:22:25,028 --> 01:22:27,907
You built streets and houses for
Ethiopians, make them for us too.

1008
01:22:27,895 --> 01:22:31,035
- Go tell this to the Duce.
- Thanks, Excellency.

1009
01:22:31,020 --> 01:22:35,696
For what?
I'd gladly do that, but I can't. I wish!

1010
01:22:35,645 --> 01:22:38,489
Tell him I'm in a cave with 6 children
and a donkey.

1011
01:22:38,484 --> 01:22:41,749
Come and see mine: 5 children,
plus a mule and a cow!

1012
01:22:41,731 --> 01:22:45,907
Now it's Fall, and luckily
we can go pick olives for the landlord.

1013
01:22:45,865 --> 01:22:48,857
- But winter is harsh!
- I know, Madam.

1014
01:22:57,663 --> 01:23:02,066
- Here, drink an egg, just made.
- Two apples, Excellency. - Thanks.

1015
01:23:02,020 --> 01:23:07,083
- The glass is clean, drink.
- No, thanks. - Why? Accept.

1016
01:23:07,246 --> 01:23:11,023
My son, may you be blessed
for the good you'll do to us!

1017
01:23:11,811 --> 01:23:16,260
Unfortunately I can't do anything.
I wish I could help you, really.

1018
01:23:16,219 --> 01:23:19,098
Heh, nothing. A gentleman like you!

1019
01:23:19,085 --> 01:23:22,908
I would do anything,
but I wouldn't know how. - Please!

1020
01:23:23,016 --> 01:23:27,533
Excellency, when you go back to Rome,
take the Duce by the arm and tell him. .

1021
01:23:28,257 --> 01:23:32,114
- Me, by the arm?
- Sure! Or, sign a document yourself.

1022
01:23:32,077 --> 01:23:34,535
In your rank, all you do is well done.

1023
01:23:34,532 --> 01:23:38,036
- Yes. - The Duce likes you.
- Help us.

1024
01:23:38,013 --> 01:23:39,390
He likes me?!

1025
01:23:39,763 --> 01:23:42,323
Excellency,
please deliver this letter.

1026
01:23:46,453 --> 01:23:49,548
- It's for the Duce, right?
- Yes sir, Excellency.

1027
01:23:49,538 --> 01:23:51,211
Give it in his hands.

1028
01:23:51,940 --> 01:23:53,112
Thanks.

1029
01:24:08,343 --> 01:24:12,132
- The Virgin Mary will remember you.
- Have a glass of wine.

1030
01:24:12,097 --> 01:24:16,694
- Thanks, ma'am, I'm teetotal.
- Give a good luck kiss to His Excellency.

1031
01:24:16,839 --> 01:24:18,466
Omero’s darling!

1032
01:24:22,441 --> 01:24:23,545
Doctor...

1033
01:24:26,585 --> 01:24:28,770
Who do these people think I am?

1034
01:24:30,463 --> 01:24:34,115
It's pointless to deny it.
Everybody knows that...

1035
01:24:34,562 --> 01:24:37,418
that you're an officer on a mission,
right?

1036
01:24:39,491 --> 01:24:41,573
An officer on a mission?!?

1037
01:24:43,620 --> 01:24:46,169
Here they're more simple than in town.

1038
01:24:46,260 --> 01:24:48,513
And of course they told them.

1039
01:24:51,663 --> 01:24:54,177
But, how is that possible?
But...

1040
01:24:55,008 --> 01:24:56,430
Me, an officer?

1041
01:25:02,743 --> 01:25:06,122
- This is good, drink some.
- I'm teetotal!

1042
01:25:07,692 --> 01:25:08,921
Excuse me, . .

1043
01:25:09,726 --> 01:25:13,549
But didn't you come here from Rome...
to make an inspection?

1044
01:25:14,703 --> 01:25:15,738
Me?

1045
01:25:17,743 --> 01:25:19,279
Who told you that?

1046
01:25:19,655 --> 01:25:20,850
So,..

1047
01:25:21,649 --> 01:25:22,946
You're not...

1048
01:25:25,663 --> 01:25:26,619
No!

1049
01:25:26,954 --> 01:25:28,149
You're not. . ?

1050
01:25:28,342 --> 01:25:29,992
You're really not. . ?

1051
01:26:00,755 --> 01:26:02,211
That's why!

1052
01:26:12,356 --> 01:26:13,448
At last!

1053
01:26:14,679 --> 01:26:17,114
- More! Drink!
- It's better.

1054
01:26:23,543 --> 01:26:25,614
That's the way!
Cheers!

1055
01:26:26,656 --> 01:26:27,714
Bravo!

1056
01:26:27,881 --> 01:26:30,248
Drink! Drink!

1057
01:26:30,903 --> 01:26:35,056
- It's a luck you've deserved.
- You'll move to Rome with you son-in-law?

1058
01:26:35,016 --> 01:26:38,646
- Of course.
As soon as everything is ready, we'll go.

1059
01:26:38,619 --> 01:26:40,883
“Big ship, big voyage"

1060
01:26:40,892 --> 01:26:45,602
It will be a pleasure to become friends
with Lady Rachele. She's my age, you know?

1061
01:26:45,546 --> 01:26:48,823
He's 4 years my junior,
but he looks like he's 20.

1062
01:26:48,806 --> 01:26:53,221
I hope you won't forget about us.
My son should go to Rome.

1063
01:26:53,289 --> 01:26:58,022
Sure. If you need, write me.
"Salvatore Acquamano, Rome".

1064
01:26:58,219 --> 01:27:01,382
- How about a title in front of the name?
- We'll see.

1065
01:27:01,365 --> 01:27:05,211
- "Commandant", "Grand Officer"...
- Who knows, maybe even "Excellency“.

1066
01:27:05,182 --> 01:27:09,039
Don't offer too much help.
I don't wanna be bothered in Rome.

1067
01:27:09,206 --> 01:27:12,699
Sure. Who will care about
these poor idiots once we move?

1068
01:27:12,852 --> 01:27:17,187
"Excellency"! A title that
suits him like a saddle on a cow.

1069
01:27:17,341 --> 01:27:21,539
Don Salvatore! My congratulations.
To you and your daughter.

1070
01:27:21,496 --> 01:27:24,716
- With my mouth and with...
- Your horns! - What. . ?

1071
01:27:24,699 --> 01:27:28,169
- Come here a second.
- What did I do? - Nothing...

1072
01:27:29,768 --> 01:27:33,625
- What's wrong?
- You went to him to denounce me, huh?

1073
01:27:34,037 --> 01:27:38,258
You didn't think he'd become my son-in-law!
Now you'll regret being a spy!

1074
01:27:38,230 --> 01:27:41,666
I didn't say anything, I swear.
Don't ruin me, I have 6 children!

1075
01:27:41,649 --> 01:27:44,641
No, you have 6 children
without being a father!

1076
01:27:45,263 --> 01:27:50,770
- "To live dangerously. " -No.
- "The plow marks the track. " -No.

1077
01:27:50,701 --> 01:27:54,808
- "The sinner. "
- It must be a sentence by the Duce.

1078
01:27:56,943 --> 01:28:01,358
- "If I advance, follow me. "
- Finally! Was it so difficult?

1079
01:28:02,263 --> 01:28:04,675
Congratulations!

1080
01:28:05,648 --> 01:28:09,653
Thanks, very nice of you.
Really touching.

1081
01:28:09,613 --> 01:28:13,322
- Gentlemen, here is my son-in-law!
- Congratulations, we heard the news.

1082
01:28:13,298 --> 01:28:15,062
What are you doing?

1083
01:28:15,967 --> 01:28:19,358
A welcoming really...
- Want a drink? - Yes, just a sip.

1084
01:28:19,339 --> 01:28:22,434
- You will have a jewel as wife.
- Allow me.

1085
01:28:22,415 --> 01:28:25,350
- Mom. - Nice to meet you.
- Omero Battifiori.

1086
01:28:25,336 --> 01:28:30,627
- Omero Battifiori. - Nice to meet you
- May I? - But I'm the mother!

1087
01:28:31,383 --> 01:28:35,149
- Omero Battifiori. - He's so nice.
- Mrs. Cariddi. - May I?

1088
01:28:35,232 --> 01:28:38,668
- What a beautiful couple!
- Omero Battifiori, madam.

1089
01:28:38,732 --> 01:28:42,475
- You've met the secretary.
- Yes, I've already spotted him.

1090
01:28:42,452 --> 01:28:46,093
- Mrs. Falsari.
- May I? Omero Battifiori.

1091
01:28:47,146 --> 01:28:49,979
- Tomorrow?
- Yes, tomorrow.

1092
01:28:50,693 --> 01:28:53,754
- Really nice.
- Mrs. De Bellis. - Nice to meet you.

1093
01:28:53,741 --> 01:28:58,747
Come, we're playing. We mimic the Duce's
sentences. You must know so many!

1094
01:28:58,793 --> 01:29:00,773
Of course, I write them!

1095
01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:04,347
- Here. Let's go playing.
- What did he say?

1096
01:29:04,616 --> 01:29:07,358
- He said he writes them. - Really?
- May be.

1097
01:29:07,348 --> 01:29:09,578
Don't you think he drank a bit?

1098
01:29:10,383 --> 01:29:14,707
- Ouch! - What's wrong?
- Here is the pain again.

1099
01:29:14,661 --> 01:29:18,973
- I really have to go to Lecce tomorrow.
- Let's hope this is the right time!

1100
01:29:20,783 --> 01:29:24,299
- "Book and musket."
- No. Where have you seen the book?

1101
01:29:24,274 --> 01:29:27,312
Hush for a moment, please.
Maybe I got it.

1102
01:29:28,019 --> 01:29:32,365
- "War is worlds only hygiene. "
- Yes, that's it!

1103
01:29:33,263 --> 01:29:37,405
Now I'm going to do one. I need a woman.
Do you mind, De Bellis?

1104
01:29:37,363 --> 01:29:41,038
- Go ahead! - Thanks.
- Go ahead. - It's only a game.

1105
01:29:42,773 --> 01:29:46,528
I'm an old man, but I still like women.

1106
01:29:46,494 --> 01:29:50,169
- "The plow marks the track. "
- Here oxes are not involved!

1107
01:29:50,233 --> 01:29:53,635
What is it?
Say it, we're never going to guess.

1108
01:29:54,022 --> 01:29:57,333
“Who drinks beer, will live 100 years. <i>"</i>

1109
01:29:57,586 --> 01:29:59,327
Wasn't that an advert?

1110
01:29:59,341 --> 01:30:03,733
Maybe He suggested it, you know,
during the Munich speech, the beer...

1111
01:30:03,824 --> 01:30:08,500
Then the Duce must have suggested also:
"You want health? Drink Ferrochina".

1112
01:30:12,663 --> 01:30:15,872
Either you change head
or you change father!

1113
01:30:17,448 --> 01:30:20,270
That's a good one!

1114
01:30:21,223 --> 01:30:25,854
- Let's play another game. - Quiet!
- Let's play "cops and robbers".

1115
01:30:26,377 --> 01:30:27,685
No no...

1116
01:30:28,070 --> 01:30:30,994
Where are we going to find the cops, here?

1117
01:30:31,110 --> 01:30:35,820
Ok, but you can play the robbers.
You know how to be robbers, right?

1118
01:30:35,773 --> 01:30:38,538
To the refreshments!
Double celebration today!

1119
01:30:38,536 --> 01:30:43,019
Anniversary of the Fascist revolution
and my daughter's engagement. Please.

1120
01:30:44,703 --> 01:30:48,981
Nobody liked this game.
Then, everybody to the refreshments!

1121
01:30:49,099 --> 01:30:51,727
Let's all "eat" something!

1122
01:30:51,859 --> 01:30:53,054
You mind?

1123
01:30:53,733 --> 01:30:55,588
We open the dance? - No.

1124
01:30:55,603 --> 01:30:58,800
For I don't know your traditions.
At least, not all.

1125
01:30:58,789 --> 01:31:01,713
- About that...
- Let's go drink.

1126
01:31:01,918 --> 01:31:06,480
Elvira told me that some backbiter
told you some things about me.

1127
01:31:06,937 --> 01:31:07,995
30?

1128
01:31:08,269 --> 01:31:12,718
I tell you they're jealous, provincial.
They'd say anything just to...

1129
01:31:12,667 --> 01:31:15,181
just to send you away! Hah!

1130
01:31:15,616 --> 01:31:19,154
But what do I care?
Don Salvatore, what do I care?

1131
01:31:19,136 --> 01:31:24,631
Sure, some little sins, I committed too,
but who hasn't? - Who hasn't?

1132
01:31:24,561 --> 01:31:28,759
I mean, if at times
I also sewed my own interest,

1133
01:31:28,937 --> 01:31:30,883
I didn't do it for myself.

1134
01:31:31,050 --> 01:31:35,783
- And for whom did you do that?
- For my 2 children, Elvira, Vittorio...

1135
01:31:35,977 --> 01:31:38,514
Since Elvira is going to be yours...

1136
01:31:38,770 --> 01:31:40,226
Omero...

1137
01:31:41,740 --> 01:31:43,504
I did it for you too.

1138
01:31:47,463 --> 01:31:52,139
Thank God that in your place there wasn't
that man who had 11 children!

1139
01:31:53,018 --> 01:31:56,431
- Omero, would you like something?
- Sure! Let's go to the refreshment!

1140
01:31:56,557 --> 01:32:00,573
- Aren't you coming, dad? - Yes.
- Let's all "eat" something!

1141
01:32:02,362 --> 01:32:04,456
I'm following you, my love.

1142
01:32:05,010 --> 01:32:10,119
- I'm teetotal, but I'll take a sip.
- Coming late to an engagement party...

1143
01:32:10,063 --> 01:32:12,168
I would ask him where he went.

1144
01:32:12,174 --> 01:32:15,735
Well, if you wanna know,
I went to visit the caves.

1145
01:32:16,382 --> 01:32:19,113
- The caves?
- Yes.

1146
01:32:19,113 --> 01:32:21,616
And we were worried for him!

1147
01:32:21,617 --> 01:32:26,965
- Bad, ma'am. Never worry about others.
- Not about others, but about you, yes.

1148
01:32:28,183 --> 01:32:32,427
If you wanna worry about someone, at
the caves you got enough for a lifetime.

1149
01:32:32,381 --> 01:32:36,534
But why would you do that?
Right? Why doing that?

1150
01:32:37,332 --> 01:32:40,393
Right? Why doing that?

1151
01:32:40,490 --> 01:32:46,099
If you start caring for others' misery,
you end up forgetting your own interests.

1152
01:32:46,296 --> 01:32:48,116
Right, Don Salvatore?

1153
01:32:48,137 --> 01:32:50,458
Well, actually, I don't know.

1154
01:32:50,900 --> 01:32:53,995
Anyhow, today is a happy day
and we should be happy.

1155
01:32:53,978 --> 01:32:56,117
Of course, be happy!

1156
01:32:56,459 --> 01:32:58,575
Hey. be happy you! Come on!

1157
01:32:59,546 --> 01:33:03,779
Don't you wet you beak too?
Oh, pardon the pun!

1158
01:33:03,871 --> 01:33:07,739
Anyway, don't worry,
as soon as in Rome, I'll tell everybody.

1159
01:33:08,477 --> 01:33:11,902
It's that he wants
to let known in Rome that he's...

1160
01:33:12,342 --> 01:33:14,652
Don't worry, I'll take care of you.

1161
01:33:15,776 --> 01:33:17,961
The secretary is worried.

1162
01:33:17,969 --> 01:33:22,133
Are you afraid I'm going to reveal that
you raise a new race of cattle here?

1163
01:33:22,090 --> 01:33:24,889
- A new race?
- The racing cows!

1164
01:33:24,994 --> 01:33:29,261
They might be few, but they move
from farm to farm very quickly.

1165
01:33:29,222 --> 01:33:33,500
- What do you mean? - What do I mean?
Let's all "eat" something!

1166
01:33:35,775 --> 01:33:38,130
Everybody to the refreshment!

1167
01:33:38,137 --> 01:33:41,949
- Omero, what’s wrong with you?
- Maybe he drank a bit too much and...

1168
01:33:41,914 --> 01:33:46,909
When dad sweats it's a bad sign.
Are you worried about the airport?

1169
01:33:46,848 --> 01:33:50,034
- Course not!
- You can say that you breed frogs!

1170
01:33:50,022 --> 01:33:52,423
Not bad as a work of the Regime!

1171
01:33:53,373 --> 01:33:56,479
One hand washes the other,
and both of them...

1172
01:33:56,926 --> 01:33:59,122
Damn, what a loot!

1173
01:33:59,459 --> 01:34:03,316
But if you have to lend a hand to anyone,
how can you do it?

1174
01:34:04,041 --> 01:34:06,055
You're all without hands.

1175
01:34:06,062 --> 01:34:09,066
They can wait all they want,
those at the caves!

1176
01:34:09,053 --> 01:34:13,058
You're doing well, because in Italy
handshake has been abolished.

1177
01:34:13,533 --> 01:34:18,983
To whom, the money? To us!
To whom, the caves? To them!

1178
01:34:18,909 --> 01:34:23,073
- Omero. - Pardon, there's the ladies.
- What's with you? Just this day?

1179
01:34:23,038 --> 01:34:26,895
Gimme that, it's no good for you.
You've got an age!

1180
01:34:27,757 --> 01:34:29,111
Listen up...

1181
01:34:29,137 --> 01:34:31,981
You swiped the funds for the Befana,
right?

1182
01:34:32,324 --> 01:34:33,462
Gotcha!

1183
01:34:33,743 --> 01:34:38,032
Listen, Omero...
I think we can fix this without...

1184
01:34:38,253 --> 01:34:39,800
bothering Rome, huh?

1185
01:34:41,263 --> 01:34:44,233
Don't worry,
I'm not going to say anything.

1186
01:34:44,219 --> 01:34:45,596
I'm not crazy!

1187
01:34:46,735 --> 01:34:49,989
First of all, in Rome
probably nobody would care.

1188
01:34:49,967 --> 01:34:53,892
- Yes, they have other things
to worry about. - More important.

1189
01:34:53,963 --> 01:34:57,399
And here, nothing would change anyway.
Secondly,

1190
01:34:58,328 --> 01:35:00,285
And for this, I apologize...

1191
01:35:00,303 --> 01:35:01,816
I'm mortified.

1192
01:35:02,251 --> 01:35:06,563
I am not an inspector, as you thought,
but a plain insurance agent.

1193
01:35:08,010 --> 01:35:11,685
500 lire per month,
plus overtime, when there is.

1194
01:35:11,981 --> 01:35:15,519
If I went to denounce you,
they would probably arrest me.

1195
01:35:15,850 --> 01:35:17,329
I'm not stupid!

1196
01:35:18,148 --> 01:35:20,970
Don Salvatore, I'm an insurance agent,
that's all!

1197
01:35:20,964 --> 01:35:24,468
I've always said that, but you...
Oh, sorry!

1198
01:35:26,603 --> 01:35:29,254
I'm an insurance agent!

1199
01:35:33,257 --> 01:35:35,942
Do you understand, now?

1200
01:35:36,201 --> 01:35:40,160
I understand you were scared,
but to mistake me for an officer!

1201
01:35:41,091 --> 01:35:42,263
De Bellis!

1202
01:35:42,562 --> 01:35:44,849
Do I look like a high officer?

1203
01:35:48,537 --> 01:35:49,902
Elvira!

1204
01:35:52,023 --> 01:35:53,206
Excuse me.

1205
01:35:54,709 --> 01:35:56,757
My love, wait.

1206
01:36:01,903 --> 01:36:04,361
Cheers! To the newly wed!

1207
01:36:12,450 --> 01:36:16,785
I had so many chances with men,
but I wanted a men like I dreamed!

1208
01:36:16,871 --> 01:36:19,033
But you said you loved me.

1209
01:36:20,369 --> 01:36:21,803
I still love you.

1210
01:36:21,830 --> 01:36:25,277
- So...?
- If I married you, I'd make a mistake.

1211
01:36:25,741 --> 01:36:28,676
To many people,
marriage is always a mistake.

1212
01:36:28,662 --> 01:36:33,896
No. For me it's a mistake only when
you marry without esteem and respect.

1213
01:36:33,835 --> 01:36:36,441
Why? Just because I drank a bit?

1214
01:36:36,765 --> 01:36:39,382
It's not common, I usually don't drink.

1215
01:36:39,569 --> 01:36:44,427
Omero, I love you. But you're not
the father I want for my children.

1216
01:36:44,662 --> 01:36:48,974
Maybe they want me the way I am.
Let's let them decide, ok?

1217
01:36:49,397 --> 01:36:51,104
No, don't joke.

1218
01:36:51,891 --> 01:36:55,771
I know, you would be a good husband.
You'd provide us with everything.

1219
01:36:55,738 --> 01:36:59,436
On Sunday, you'd take us all
to have some ice-cream.

1220
01:36:59,411 --> 01:37:01,470
Why? You don't like ice-cream?

1221
01:37:01,481 --> 01:37:06,976
You see, I may be stupid, but I've always
dreamed of a man full of medals.

1222
01:37:06,901 --> 01:37:08,676
Strong and courageous.

1223
01:37:08,696 --> 01:37:12,701
Ready to fight, in peace and in war,
for the ideals of our country.

1224
01:37:13,020 --> 01:37:16,763
But do you want a husband or
a memorial?

1225
01:37:16,732 --> 01:37:20,168
He's a deceiver, a conman!
That's what he is!

1226
01:37:20,144 --> 01:37:22,385
We must give him a good lesson!

1227
01:37:22,693 --> 01:37:26,243
I am the idiot,
I mistook a penny for a gold coin!

1228
01:37:26,458 --> 01:37:29,871
Now, that wretch will make
all Italy laugh at us!

1229
01:37:29,848 --> 01:37:32,613
If we give him a lesson,
he won't laugh so much!

1230
01:37:32,603 --> 01:37:36,471
- Not a wise move, he knows too much!
- it'd be like adding fuel to the fire!

1231
01:37:36,437 --> 01:37:38,735
How could I fall for that? I don't know.

1232
01:37:38,743 --> 01:37:43,601
- I told you he couldn't be an inspector.
- Too young, without authority.

1233
01:37:43,546 --> 01:37:46,413
With that weak constitution!

1234
01:37:46,403 --> 01:37:48,030
But if he hadn't told us...

1235
01:37:48,048 --> 01:37:51,234
But whose fault is it?
- Not mine. - Not mine.

1236
01:37:51,218 --> 01:37:55,610
But somebody must have come and said
"that one is the inspector. " But who?

1237
01:38:01,783 --> 01:38:02,955
There he is.

1238
01:38:03,268 --> 01:38:06,158
"Someone arrived from Rome.
A high officer. "

1239
01:38:06,152 --> 01:38:10,749
We didn't believe that and he
insisted: "it's him, I saw him."

1240
01:38:19,143 --> 01:38:21,441
It's perfectly on time.

1241
01:38:30,703 --> 01:38:32,922
<i>Hotel porter!</i>

1242
01:38:47,343 --> 01:38:51,860
Comrades! I preferred to telegraph
because I don't like secret inspections.

1243
01:38:51,814 --> 01:38:56,012
It would have been a lack of trust in you,
the live forces of the nation.

1244
01:38:55,970 --> 01:38:59,565
Excellency, thanks.
On behalf of everybody, thanks.

1245
01:38:59,540 --> 01:39:03,170
I brought my wife,
who had never visited this part of Italy.

1246
01:39:03,138 --> 01:39:05,505
- It's a great honor.
- Giancarla!

1247
01:39:07,619 --> 01:39:09,963
Here you go, Madam.
The luggage, Saverio.

1248
01:39:09,963 --> 01:39:14,605
There. My wife, the wife of the political
secretary... - Nice to meet you.

1249
01:39:14,552 --> 01:39:20,559
Excellency, I allowed myself to
contradict just one of your instructions.

1250
01:39:21,079 --> 01:39:23,821
I didn't reserve a hotel room for you.

1251
01:39:24,258 --> 01:39:28,354
My wife and I would be very honored
if you and your wife

1252
01:39:28,624 --> 01:39:31,446
will accept to be guests
at our household.

1253
01:39:34,183 --> 01:39:38,006
- What do you say, Giancarla?
- I would say yes, Peppino.

1254
01:39:38,982 --> 01:39:40,302
Well, so be it!

1255
01:39:40,335 --> 01:39:42,497
Thanks, Excellency. This way.

1256
01:39:45,503 --> 01:39:49,406
I've heard that around here
the oil is really good. Is that true?

1257
01:40:00,023 --> 01:40:04,642
That's not right, though. An inspector,
like you, traveling in third class!

1258
01:40:06,092 --> 01:40:08,038
I'm traveling incognito!

1259
01:40:10,823 --> 01:40:14,942
- Good-bye. - Good-bye. Have a safe trip.
- Thanks for everything.

1260
01:40:22,543 --> 01:40:25,240
- Is it a free seat, Father?
- Yes. - Thanks.

1261
01:40:25,237 --> 01:40:26,602
Are we kidding?

1262
01:40:27,570 --> 01:40:31,894
He gave us the Empire,
he brought back order...

1263
01:40:31,967 --> 01:40:36,188
He made Italy a nation
respected all over the world!

1264
01:40:36,478 --> 01:40:38,025
And these are facts!

1265
01:40:38,143 --> 01:40:40,191
- Excuse me.
- Go ahead.

1266
01:41:08,383 --> 01:41:09,623
<i>”Dear Duce,</i>

1267
01:41:10,131 --> 01:41:14,876
<i>I'm 56 years old. In my whole life,
I've never looked from a window,</i>

1268
01:41:14,948 --> 01:41:18,987
<i>since I live in a cave,
worse than the one in the nativity scene,</i>

1269
01:41:19,419 --> 01:41:22,150
<i>Now I'm asking you if I can have a home.</i>

1270
01:41:22,142 --> 01:41:26,158
<i>Not really for the house, but for
the window, I've never had one.</i>

1271
01:41:26,580 --> 01:41:28,127
<i>Can you give me one?</i>

1272
01:41:28,255 --> 01:41:33,125
<i>Now that my son died in Africa,
and left me completely alone?</i>

1273
01:41:34,383 --> 01:41:38,320
<i>Dear Duce, now that I'm alone,
I just want to have a window,</i>

1274
01:41:38,501 --> 01:41:43,803
<i>to look through, and pray for you,
since you need it so much.</i>

1275
01:41:43,737 --> 01:41:47,514
<i>My name is Gallicchio Lorenzo,
