Not even God can save you
if the Italians hear you.

When we arrive,

of your dear Gabriele, Eleonora.

- It's nothing, really.

And I'm at your side.

129
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,240
I know you will be strong
in the face of any disease,

130
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,920
but you will be strong
even in the face of death itself.

please do the miracle.

[Eleonora's labored breathing]

Is she still alive?

137
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,800
Yes, Enrichetta,
but she needs to stay calm.

138

The fever…

139
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,320
It would have been enough to hide this from her.
Don't you think so?

Doctor, how are you?

141
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:34,480
What can I do?

I ask you to be kind
to leave the room.

but let me be with the man
who saved my life.

164
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:03,360
[Hermes] Eleonora.

165
00:19:06,120 --> 00:19:09,320
- [Eleonora] You were right.
- About what?

166
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:11,960
That will is everything.

167
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,040
It's my will
plus your will.

168
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,080
Who can stop us?

169
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:23,160
Do you want to stop us, Giacomino?

170
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,200
- No.
- [Eleonora] No!

171
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,880
And you, my friend?

172
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,360
Eleonora… I don't understand.

173
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,920
Ermete and I will work
together again.

174
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,800
[cough]

175
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,760
[Eleonora] Why are you laughing?
Why is twelve years too long?

176
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,320
Maybe you think
that I'm no longer capable?

177
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,760
[Désirée] No, there aren't too many.

178
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,240
- Mr. Zacconi, tell him.
- Eleonora, let me understand clearly.

179
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,200
La Duse rises from the ashes like
the phoenix and returns to the scene?

180
00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:07,640
- You told me.
- A few hours ago you were more dead than alive.

181
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,280
It was a few hours ago, it was…
it was a different era.

182
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,760
I felt death touch me

183
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,880
and then I heard it slowly,

184
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,000
I heard her walk away,
thanks to you.

185
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,400
And now I feel…
I feel so…

186
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,600
So free and so alive.

187
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,600
I feel…

188
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,000
I feel so alive, alive, alive, alive!

189
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,560
Ah!

190
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,120
I want to start again
where I left off.

191
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,600
"Look, Wangel,
the woman of the sea is back."

192
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:51,800
Ibsen.

193
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:54,120
[steps]

194
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:55,440
[Enrichetta] Mom.

195
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,600
[Eleonora] Enrichetta, my love!

196
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,760
Let yourself be looked at.

197
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,560
Enrichetta, how long has it been!
But how many years!

198
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,080
My love, how old!

199
00:21:13,360 --> 00:21:14,920
Let me get a look at you.

200
00:21:23,120 --> 00:21:27,600
Your health is very fragile
and you have no more money.

201
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:30,920
But it's not a problem.

202
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,840
You don't need to come back
in that world of sinners.

203
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,040
They are all hypocrites.

204
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:39,920
- You think so?
- [Enrichetta] Yes.

205
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,800
They want to take advantage of you,
but I'm here.

206
00:21:44,120 --> 00:21:46,640
Come live with us,
with the children…

207
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,080
How are the children?

208
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:51,960
- Well.
- Well?

209
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:53,760
- Yes.
-How is Edward?

210
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:54,880
Well.

211
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,600
You can and will keep me here.

212
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,120
But my soul…

213
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,320
my thoughts...

214
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,120
my wishes…

215
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,640
you will never be able to chain them.

216
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:56,280
Free, free, responsible.

217
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:01,760
What a change!

218
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,360
We were talking about the sea.

219
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,080
Of storms and calms

220
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:32,000
and how long the night was
on board in absolute darkness.

221
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:37,680
And… And the sparkling color
of the waves on beautiful days.

222
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,760
But more often,
of whales and flying fish

223
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,440
and seals basking
in the sun on the rocks.

224
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,200
[Giacomino] This night
I wrote a few pages.

225
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,480
It's just a beginning of text,
it is not yet a complete text.

226
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,880
It's an idea, that's it...

227
00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,240
I haven't been able to find it yet
the right time to give them to him.

228
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,040
Would you like to do it for me?

229
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,320
We arrived shortly,
we have to go down.

230
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,280
Say he gets angry
what if I turn around secretly?

231
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:46,720
Curb your curiosity
if you care about your skin.

232
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,680
First day.

233
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:55,960
Second day.

234
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:00,880
Is she beautiful?

235
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,480
Much more than beautiful.

236
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,240
You're not helping like that.

237
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,120
[Eleonora coughs]

238
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,560
[in French]
Take a few steps, Eleonora, please.

239
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,080
[in Italian] Move your arms
up and down.

240
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:20,160
- Huh? Do you feel free?
- [coughing] Up and down.

241
00:25:20,360 --> 00:25:22,160
I feel very free.

242
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,680
I don't know how to thank you
for this work of art.

243
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:31,480
[cough]

244
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,600
[bells]

245
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,480
[coughs]

246
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,160
Maybe we need to cheer up a bit here,

247
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,800
because the theaters are full
of drafts.

248
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,000
- Giacomino.
- Turn around.

249
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:57,440
[Eleonora] Do you want to be the first spectator
of my new Ellida?

250
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:05,960
Our first spectator
He seems to be under a spell.

251
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,760
[Eleonora] But he is always in the moon.

252
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,360
You can tell me everything you think,
Giacomino.

253
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,160
Wonderful.

254
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,320
[indistinct voices]

255
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,720
[Giacomino] Mrs. Duse…

256
00:26:32,120 --> 00:26:34,320
May I ask you to read
something I wrote?

257
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,360
[indistinct screams and blows]

258
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:37,880
Benassi.

259
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,400
[shouting] Well done!

260
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,160
- Stop! Stop!
- [man] I'll kill you!

261
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:54,680
[indistinct screams]

262
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:55,880
[Eleonora] Help!

263
00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,480
Lady! Ninth!

264
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,880
Guards! Guards!

265
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,560
[man] Run away! Fast!

266
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,400
[inaudible dialogue]

267
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,440
Teacher, forgive me the squalid vision,
but I didn't start it.

268
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,440
[man] They did well.
There's no place for rich people here.

269
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,560
I believe her, I believe her.

270
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:31,280
That's not always a good thing
turn the other cheek.

271
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:33,840
You did well, Benassi.

272
00:27:34,360 --> 00:27:35,760
[coughs]

273
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,240
Excuse me. Excuse me.

274
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:46,680
Poor dear Baroness…
You wanted to help me and they hurt you.

275
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,600
- I'll take care of you now.
- No, it's nothing.

276
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,600
Come on, let's go!

277
00:27:52,360 --> 00:27:54,160
Huh? Do you do it yourself?

278
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:56,800
Come on, you're bleeding!

279
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,360
[shouting] She's here to "re-quote"!
Quote Ibsen again!

280
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,040
- [Hermes] Is this clear?
- [Cecilia] If she screams, I don't…

281
00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:08,880
[Hermes] I scream as much as I want!

282
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:12,680
It took me years to learn
to scream without losing your voice!

283
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:15,400
Manrico, let her see!

284
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,640
- Even mother died crazy!
- [Ermes] Very good. It sucked.

285
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:26,520
“His mother was crazy too or at least,”
say whatever the hell you want,

286
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,320
"she died crazy, I know it".

287
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,800
And he points with his finger. Text.

288
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:33,840
I know it.

289
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,960
- [Hermes, shouting] I know it!
- I don't even know who I'm talking about!

290
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,080
But like whose?
By Ellida, the protagonist.

291
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:45,080
Ellida?
That armchair perhaps.

292
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,000
This is who Ellida was for us,
the protagonist, in recent weeks.

293
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,920
Who among us has seen Duse? Huh?

294
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,520
Have you ever seen her?
Did she ever come to rehearsals?

295
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,160
I am your stepmother.

296
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,720
- What is your name?
- Rinaldi Cecilia.

297
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:16,280
[Eleonora] No. Here, in this house.

298
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,520
With these people,
with this dress.

299
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,120
Who are you?

300
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,120
Hilde.

301
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,200
[Eleonora] Ah… Hilde.

302
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,120
Did your mom die?

303
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,400
Huh?

304
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,160
Did your mom die?

305
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,920
- Answer me.
- Yes.

306
00:29:58,200 --> 00:29:59,760
How old were you?

307
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,320
- [Cecilia] Twelve.
- Who told you?

308
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:09,960
- My dad.
- [Eleonora] Where were you?

309
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,320
What words did he say to you?

310
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:22,320
"Mom from today... she won't be here anymore."

311
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,160
[Eleonora] Did your mother protect you?

312
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,720
He protected you.

313
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,280
And now who is there to protect you?

314
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:39,600
Who's there? Who's there?

315
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:43,360
Nobody.

316
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:48,760
Your dad doesn't protect you,
because he got married to me.

317
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,080
I'm a strange woman, huh?

318
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,240
Cold, unhappy, huh?

319
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,320
And your dad loves me more than you.

320
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,800
What does this do to you?
What does it do inside you? What does it do to you?

321
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,880
What do you have inside? What do you have?
What do you have inside? Tell me.

322
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:11,720
[Cecilia] Anger.

323
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:15,040
Anger. Give voice to this anger,
give it a voice, give it a voice!

324
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:20,800
Look at me.

325
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,240
Get out of this theater. Go away.

326
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,280
Tell her or leave.

327
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,200
Tell her or leave now.

328
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:37,520
[chuckles]

329
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:38,680
[Eleonora taps her foot]

330
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,800
His mother was crazy too,
or at least she died crazy.

331
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,240
- [shouting] No!
- Or at least she died crazy!

332
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,480
- Ninth!
- I know, I know!

333
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:50,800
No, start again.

334
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,080
I don't know
because dad brought her home.

335
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,440
Chances are someday
turn your brains on.

336
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,320
His mother was crazy too,
or at least she died crazy.

337
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,160
Please, dare, dare!

338
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,880
I don't know why dad
he brought it home.

339
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:07,760
Yes.

340
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,760
Chances are any day now
turn your brains on.

341
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:11,600
Yes.

342
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,000
-His mother was crazy too...
- Yes!

343
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:14,240
…or at least she died crazy.

344
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:15,120
Yes!

345
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,080
- I know.
- [Eleonora] Do you know?

346
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,040
- I know.
- [Eleonora] Do you know?

347
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:20,960
I know it!

348
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,400
[coughs]

349
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,560
Let's sit her down.

350
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,440
[continues coughing]

351
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,720
[in a weak voice] Give me some water.

352
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,880
A nice deep breath with your mouth open.
Breath.

353
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,680
[Eleonora's labored breathing]

354
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:16,680
[Luciano] Good. Good, good, good.

355
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,160
[coughs]

356
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,480
- One last effort.
- How is mom, doctor?

357
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,640
[Luciano] The tubercles have increased,
but it is the course of the disease.

358
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,320
It's strange, because I feel better.

359
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:31,520
[Luciano laughs]

360
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,600
I thought about bringing her
at the Schatzalp in Davos.

361
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,840
- What?
- The Davos Schatzalp.

362
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,240
Well, the mountain air
It's definitely soothing.

363
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,440
[Enrichetta] They expect us in two days.
We will stay there as long as necessary.

364
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:53,840
I have a show
who debuts soon, Enrichetta.

365
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,760
- Isn't health more important?
- [Eleonora] Yes, later, later.

366
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:01,600
When I finish the tour,
we will go to "choo-choo Davos".

367
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,360
Mom, stop it! Mom!

368
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:08,040
Ma'am, your concern
It's more than reasonable.

369
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:12,040
But think about it,
in a sanatorium, without work

370
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:16,000
his mother could go to meet him
to a sudden worsening.

371
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,120
- Listen to the doctor, Enrichetta.
- [Enrichetta] But they could cure her there.

372
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:23,000
I said listen to the doctor, come on.

373
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,320
I remain at your disposal,
as always.

374
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,880
[Eleonora] Thank you, doctor.
I'll wait for you at the theatre.

375
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:29,120
I won't miss it.

376
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:40,280
Never allow yourself again
to make decisions for me.

377
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,040
[Enrichetta] I learned from you.

378
00:34:45,639 --> 00:34:49,360
Come on, go, go.
I need to rest. Go, that's enough.

379
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,280
[hum]

380
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:13,000
- Here. So he's fine.
- Thank you.

381
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,640
[indistinct voices]

382
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,280
You're welcome.

383
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,120
[man] It's Mussolini.

384
00:35:27,720 --> 00:35:30,040
Honorable, my compliments.

385
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,600
- My savior.
- Mussolini! How are you?

386
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,080
She saved my life,
Dr. Nicastrelli.

387
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,440
It was just an ulcer. Nothing more.

388
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,040
- Don't be modest.
- No.

389
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,360
He is an exceptional doctor.

390
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,360
- Mussolini.
- It's a pleasure to meet you, Honorable.

391
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,120
Please, the truncheons
let's leave them in the cloakroom.

392
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:07,600
Free.

393
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:11,440
Responsible.

394
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,600
What a change!

395
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:20,200
[door opening]

396
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,920
[Eleonora, softly] It's the same one
which gives us, on certain summer evenings,

397
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,920
when you just have a feeling
of night and darkness.

398
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:31,720
It's D'Annunzio.

399
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,280
[Eleonora] But what do I care about D'Annunzio
now?

400
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,680
The foyer is already completely full.

401
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,600
All his friends are there.
The galleries will also be filled.

402
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,120
Enrichetta is here. And the children.
The whole world is here.

403
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:52,440
Why did you tell me this?
You shouldn't have told me.

404
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:57,520
I…

405
00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:03,520
I can't be Ellida
in front of my daughter.

406
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,280
- [Désirée] I don't understand.
- Send her away.

407
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:10,880
I cannot.

408
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,600
They're already making room,
people are coming in.

409
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,600
- It's too late.
- Oh, is it too late?

410
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,880
It's really too late,
you're right.

411
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:29,840
It's too late.

412
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:33,960
It's too late.

413
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,680
However, this is not the case, unfortunately.

414
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,000
[hum]

415
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,360
[indistinct voices]

416
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,480
- [Désirée] Enrichetta, please.
- Good evening, Désirée.

417
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,160
- Will you take us to the seats?
- You can't come in.

418
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,480
What do you mean?
We have three seats in row D.

419
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,880
[Désirée] Your mother doesn't want it
come in.

420
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:24,760
I am sorry. Really.

421
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:28,600
But why?
You don't want your daughter to come in?

422
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,400
- Everyone else yes and me no?
- [Désirée] Enrichetta…

423
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:37,000
- Does he let everyone in except me?
- She needs you to support her.

424
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,960
- [Enrichetta] But I support her.
- This is a different way.

425
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:41,880
The tension tonight is too high.

426
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:43,400
- Shut up. Shut up.
- She must…

427
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:44,720
[shouting] Shut up!

428
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:46,200
[hum]

429
00:38:48,720 --> 00:38:52,000
See what you're willing to do

430
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,120
to take my place
in my mother's heart.

431
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:57,120
Look at you.

432
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,120
[softly] Let that one out right now
woman, with children.

433
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:09,920
[in English] Everything is fine.

434
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,120
[man]
Ma'am, I have to ask you to follow me.

435
00:39:15,240 --> 00:39:17,680
[hum]

436
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,640
[inaudible dialogue]

437
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,440
- [woman] It's Sarah Bernhardt.
- [man] Who?

438
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,000
[woman] The great French actress.

439
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,320
He has a wooden leg.

440
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,160
- [man 1] Isn't your wife at home?
- [man 2] He'll be here any minute.

441
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,920
She went to the seaside. He goes there often,
even when the weather is bad.

442
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,040
- [man 1] Is she perhaps ill?
- [man 2] Sick no.

443
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:55,800
He has a nerve problem,
but we don't know what it is.

444
00:40:56,160 --> 00:41:00,320
- Baths are his pleasure.
- [man 1] Nobody here understands it.

445
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,520
But everyone calls her "the woman of the sea".

446
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,520
[in English] Sit here.

447
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,960
Let's play a game together.

448
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:26,840
It's called: "Waiting for Grandma".

449
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:56,440
Look, Wangel!
The woman of the sea is back.

450
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:08,600
[Eleonora] Free.

451
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:12,680
Responsible.

452
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,560
What a change!

453
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:37,640
I don't fear you and I don't want you anymore.

454
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:48,360
[softly] Benassi, it's your turn.
"Then it's over...".

455
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,360
- So it's over?
- Yes.

456
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,320
Forever.

457
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:00,400
Goodbye, lady.

458
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,760
You will no longer be in my life
what a memory.

459
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:11,960
The memory of a shipwreck.

460
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:13,920
Wangel!

461
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,520
You want and can keep me here,

462
00:43:18,240 --> 00:43:21,840
but my soul, my dreams,

463
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:27,000
my desires
you will never be able to chain them.

464
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:32,560
[Eleonora] My dear Hilde,

465
00:43:33,240 --> 00:43:37,440
it's difficult
take to the sea again.

466
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:41,720
Yes, but the sirens they leave
the sea routes risk dying

467
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:43,720
or go crazy.

468
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:47,240
It is true.

469
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,360
But they can also... get used to it.

470
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,080
They can acclimatise.

471
00:43:58,720 --> 00:44:03,600
If only they have a conscience
to be free…

472
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:08,040
and responsible.

473
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:18,760
[applause]

474
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,640
[audience] Well done!

475
00:44:23,720 --> 00:44:24,880
Divine!

476
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,640
- Divine!
- Long live the Duse!

477
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:33,400
Good!

478
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,920
- Good!

a "memorable" actor.

- [man] Hurray!
- Long live Eleonora!

00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,040
[together] Hurray!

490
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,440
[woman] My friends,
you have made theater history.

The Phoenix!

Sarah…

493
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,360
[in French]
It's been so long!

494
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,800
[in French] We haven't seen each other
last night at the theater.

495
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:18,160
You ran away.

496
00:46:18,240 --> 00:46:21,120
I don't like crowds.
I don't like journalists... No, no.

497
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:22,440
[in Italian] Sit down, sit down.

498
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,600
[in French]
My actors wanted to congratulate.

499
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,480
- [woman] It was wonderful.
- Striking.

500
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:28,360
- Unique.
- [Eleonora, in Italian] Thank you.

501
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,040
- You were superb.
- [Eleonora, in Italian] Thank you. Sit down.

502
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,680
[in French] And you?
What did you think of the show?

503
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,800
Like the audience, you are divine.

504
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,240
[in Italian]
If you liked the show,

505
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:56,040
it's because all the actors on the scene
they were alive.

506
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,680
[in French] Watching you act
I had the impression

507
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,240
to enter a past world,

508
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:10,000
to enter a museum
where time has stopped.

509
00:47:10,720 --> 00:47:15,000
[in Italian]
I'm not bad, but you were still.

510
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:19,280
With hands in "poches",
for two hours!

511
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:21,920
How do you say "poches"?

512
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:23,280
- Pockets.
- [Sarah] Pockets.

513
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,320
She... I like her. She!

514
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,560
He can tell
a world that exists.

515
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:33,960
[in French]
But not you.

516
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,440
[in French] Our tradition
endures in the memory.

517
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:39,280
[Sarah] Ah!

518
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:43,000
[in Italian] Not even a world war
she managed to change

519
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,520
the old Italian theater?

520
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:47,720
No, no, it's the opposite.

521
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:52,080
We went back to the scene
because of the war,

522
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:54,800
after the war,
to react to the war,

523
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:57,760
for veterans,
for widows, for orphans.

524
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,720
To give something to them
after this war.

525
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:02,640
[in French] What is your policy?

526
00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:05,640
To tell the same things
from before the war?

527
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,320
- [in French] Love, desire…
- [Sarah] Ah, love!

528
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,440
- …the dreams…
- [Sarah] Ah, the desire!

529
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,720
There was a catastrophe,
do you realize it?

530
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:16,560
A global catastrophe!

531
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,040
And love, are dreams the same?

532
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:23,680
No.

533
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:24,880
[Sarah] Like in the Middle Ages?

534
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,080
I think not.

535
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:30,360
I believe that love has changed,
that dreams have changed.

536
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,680
I think everything has changed,

537
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:34,720
after this war.

538
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:38,600
Sarah…

539
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:41,440
You're right.

540
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:45,800
Let's have a glass of champagne
to Sarah Bernhardt, please?

541
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:47,680
You are right.

542
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:17,400
Fortuny, this is my dream.

543
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,400
For the orphans of Italy,
for our young people.

544
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:30,200
The only way I can answer
to war is the theater.

545
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:33,720
A temple for the theatre.

546
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,360
I would like
that we build it together.

547
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,600
Mrs. Duse,
can I leave flowers on the altar?

548
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:38,400
Even one there.

549
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:16,760
[raptor sounds]

550
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:52,320
"My strong and healthy son

551
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:56,360
went to war
that he hadn't chosen

552
00:51:57,640 --> 00:52:03,280
and learned a word
which he never understood.

553
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:06,400
The word 'enemy'."

554
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:08,640
Have you read them?

555
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:13,600
I was right.

556
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,480
You don't miss anything
to become an author.

557
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:21,480
Instead, I missed everything.

558
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:26,320
Before I met you.

559
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:32,320
I'm looking at you
and I see all the women in the world.

560
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:37,360
You are like an enigma that torments me
and that I can't untie.

561
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,800
The pages I wrote
they were the only way

562
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,360
to have the illusion
to get at least a little closer to you.

563
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,880
If I find just one scratch,
I'll charge it to your pay!

564
00:52:58,440 --> 00:52:59,960
Eleonora, how are you?

565
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:02,400
[Eleonora]
Fortuny's scenography is beautiful, eh?

566
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:06,480
It represents very well
the collapse of the public

567
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:08,560
in Ibsen's drama,
or a fjord.

568
00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:14,520
Look, you know the love I have for Ibsen,
but for me it's an old story,

569
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,640
nothing moves me anymore,
not…

570
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:22,120
I'm tired too
of the theater of the workers,

571
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:24,040
than after such a success

572
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:27,240
they tell us that we are "dogs",
that we recite with our hands in our pockets.

573
00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:29,840
- [Eleonora] It has nothing to do with it.
- This is a success thanks to you.

574
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:33,680
No, I just want to change the text,
I want…

575
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,440
- Which text?
- An Italian text.

576
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,720
Why always go
to search, to search…?

577
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,560
An unpublished, a living author!

578
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:47,080
You've got it in front of you, come on.

579
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,480
Giacomo Rossetti Dubois.

580
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,480
- I?
- No, me.

581
00:53:54,720 --> 00:53:58,080
I can understand, concretely,
what are we talking about?

582
00:53:58,160 --> 00:53:59,040
Of this.

583
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:06,360
- Author, one step forward! After you!
- He's right, one step forward.

584
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,920
How many times
have his works been staged?

585
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:11,960
Except for that neutered testicle
that I saw at the Soldier's Theater.

586
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,360
- Never. Never, until now.
- [Hermes, shouting] Never!

587
00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:20,120
The theater must talk about today,
people must reflect themselves.

588
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:25,080
The theater is not a museum!
I need fire!

589
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:29,840
- The words of the lame Frenchwoman…
- Maybe the lame French girl is right.

590
00:54:30,240 --> 00:54:32,320
I would have agreed with you

591
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,360
if you had asked me to stage
a text by Pirandello.

592
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:36,600
Also by D'Annunzio.

593
00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:40,360
[shouting] Don't mention D'Annunzio to me!
I will never do it again!

594
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,040
- Never again!
- [Ermes] My darling...

595
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:46,000
Calm down. Excuse me.

596
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:48,960
This is rubbish and you know it.

597
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:51,160
I believe in his talent.

598
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:52,920
I do not.

599
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:58,400
You have to understand me, otherwise,
I have to go my own way.

600
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:01,000
Do you know what I'm telling you?

601
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:06,040
"The strength of giants
it's an exceptional thing,

602
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:10,440
but to exercise that strength
It's tyranny!"

603
00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:12,760
[shouting] Sir William Shakespeare!

604
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,720
And get out of the way!

605
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,520
[moving train]

606
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:13,880
[Cecilia] How's it going?

607
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:16,600
At least tell me something
about my character, right?

608
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:20,360
- Can we talk about it once the text is finished?
- [Cecilia] At least the plot.

609
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:23,320
The day after tomorrow we start rehearsals
and we still don't know anything.

610
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:28,760
Goodness, leave him alone, stop it
to torment our playwright!

611
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:30,560
[Cecilia] But we are like this,
we are curious.

612
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:33,560
[Manrico snores]

613
00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:38,600
[Benassi meows]

614
00:56:40,720 --> 00:56:44,120
- [Beatrice] Russavi. It's bad, come on!
- You are beautiful.

615
00:56:44,240 --> 00:56:46,600
[laughter]

616
00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:57,400
Travel, wigs,
costumes from "The Woman of the Sea"...

617
00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:03,040
And with the rent of the theater
we reach one hundred thousand lire.

618
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:07,480
One hundred thousand lire of what?

619
00:57:09,720 --> 00:57:11,240
Of debts.

620
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:26,600
[Saturnino] There's something
which I still don't understand...

621
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:28,400
[Désirée] Excuse me.

622
00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:31,840
You cannot smoke in front of the lady.

623
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:33,200
[Eleonora, laughing] No…

624
00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:37,160
But let him smoke!
In fact, I smoke one too.

625
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:40,800
- Lady! No!
- We were saying…

626
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:48,400
I have all these people around me
to me who give me orders.

627
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:50,320
However, we were saying…

628
00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:52,800
[Saturnine]
There's one thing I can't understand.

629
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:56,800
Why propose to me to produce
a theater show?

630
00:57:57,160 --> 00:58:02,040
You are the only one who has the ability
to dare, Mr. Ciarcelluti.

631
00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:05,720
His films prove it,
"Ashes"...

632
00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:07,160
The cinema, precisely.

633
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:11,000
By the way, I have a script
perfect for her...

634
00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:14,400
No, I'll stop it right now.
You know the love I have for cinema,

635
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:18,360
but I understood
that I don't have my place in cinema.

636
00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:22,960
The only sea I want to swim in
it's the theatre.

637
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:29,360
Ah! But the future belongs to the cinema.
The theater is dead.

638
00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:31,440
But I'm alive!

639
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:34,760
Let's talk to each other as men.

640
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,080
Saturninus,
I've been a comedian all my life.

641
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:45,560
I promise you that if you invest 110,
will earn at least 120.

642
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:49,360
Yes, it may be,
but a company of twelve actors

643
00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:52,280
it really is an excessive economic effort
for me.

644
00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:53,800
[Eleonora] There could be eleven.

645
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:58,960
There are always too many.
Anyway, what is this pie... this pie about?

646
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:00,240
[Giacomino] "Pièce."

647
00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:02,000
- [Saturnino] What are you talking about?
- Come on.

648
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:06,280
- The title is "Hecuba of the trenches".
- It's temporary.

649
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:09,680
- "Hecuba"? What does it mean?
- Hector's mother, Priam's wife.

650
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:13,080
- [Giacomino] Exactly.
- Hector? Another actor?

651
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:16,960
No, it's Greek mythology, Saturninus.

652
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:21,560
- [Saturnino] Okay. What is he talking about?
- I was inspired by Greek mythology

653
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:24,760
to talk about atonement,
of collective mourning…

654
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:26,240
- So…
- [Eleonora] Not only that.

655
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,160
- [Giacomino] Not only about this, of course.
- Collective mourning?

656
00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:32,600
Let's be on first terms.

657
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,640
- About you?
- The you lifts souls.

658
00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:38,200
- But she and I don't...
- You and me.

659
00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:44,680
I couldn't invest
more than fifty thousand lire.

660
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:47,240
Desiree.

661
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:54,560
I can put this.

662
01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:17,400
Cassandra,
prophetess, sister of Hector.

663
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:19,520
- Oh.
- [Benassi] Little sister.

664
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:24,000
- Benassi is Achilles.
- Achilles! And who else?

665
01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:26,680
This is for the teacher. Where?
Has it already arrived?

666
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,880
Here she comes,
little doe.

667
01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:32,480
Teacher!

668
01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:34,760
[woman] Come and see!

669
01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:37,800
[Eleonora] Uh!

670
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:41,120
Give me a hand
to take down the household goods.

671
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,200
- Let's go.
- Teacher, it's for you.

672
01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:44,480
- [Manrico] This?
- Thank you.

673
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:47,840
[Saturnino] This, the first, come on.
Pull down.

674
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:49,960
- Who is Achilles?
- [Benassi] It's me.

675
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:50,800
Here.

676
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:54,440
- [man] These are the costumes?
- Of course it's the costumes.

677
01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:57,840
- [Benassi] They are horrible.
- How horrible! They are beautiful.

678
01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:00,200
These are absurd comparisons.

679
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:02,840
It's a rigorous show,
of tradition.

680
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:04,120
But what do you know? What do you know?

681
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,760
- Have you read the text?
- It's an experimental show.

682
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:11,080
Experimental.
That's the right word.

683
01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:14,560
I would add the words
"necessity", Giacomino,

684
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:17,880
and “invention” and also “urgency.”

685
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:23,040
[together]
Have mercy on the other dead too.

686
01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:25,640
Achilles, give them back.

687
01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:31,720
The gods endowed me with claws
and artillery to decimate them,

688
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:35,560
but they didn't give me
a vulture's beak…

689
01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:37,800
[Benassi, laughing] Sorry!

690
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:40,080
Benassi, why are you laughing?
Why is he laughing now?

691
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:42,320
Really, sorry,
but I don't understand anything anymore.

692
01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:45,200
"Claws", "artillery",
repeated continuously,

693
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:46,600
"vulture beak"...

694
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:50,440
- Say the joke as it is written.
- Little baroness, don't fool yourself.

695
01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:52,760
It's not me
that I can't recite the line.

696
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:54,800
Here the text is entirely unrecitable!

697
01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:58,760
It was clear that you were stupid,
but I didn't expect it to be a "dog".

698
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:01,440
- No, but I'll take it down.
- [together] Stop it!

699
01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:05,440
[Benassi] Then because I have a helmet
and I'm dressed in these costumes?

700
01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:06,600
[woman 1] Calm down, calm down.

701
01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:09,080
- [woman 2] It's to try.
- [woman 1] Don't interrupt.

702
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:12,120
- Sorry, sorry.
- [Giacomino] Can we continue?

703
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:17,440
February 17, 1673.

704
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:24,480
Last act of the "Imaginary Invalid",
dance scene.

705
01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:27,480
Moliere coughs.

706
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,360
A vein breaks in his brain.

707
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:37,400
But the actors…

708
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,560
they continue to dance.

709
01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:45,720
They take him out of the scene…

710
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:50,880
and the actors continue…
they continue to dance

711
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:53,320
and they finish the show.

712
01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:59,800
A few hours later, Molière dies.

713
01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:04,000
This is theatre, Benassi.

714
01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:06,760
You don't stop a show

715
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:10,320
and not a scene is interrupted,
no matter what it costs.

716
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:15,280
And you, Giacomino…

717
01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:19,920
You need to know that often

718
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:26,360
the problem is the joke,
he is not the actor.

719
01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:32,880
Wellassi, invent something else
to say and let's continue.

720
01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:36,360
Let's continue.

721
01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:01,640
[Cecilia] Shit.

722
01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:04,160
- [man] Shit.
- Shit.

723
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:07,320
Benassi.

724
01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:10,920
At least look on stage
of not being an invert.

725
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:21,360
Dear Baroness,
the ass is necessary.

726
01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:23,920
Progress implies it.

727
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,360
Look, son,

728
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:43,840
the Trojan mothers

729
01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:48,320
they laugh while crying,

730
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:54,600
bringing home
the corpses of their children.

731
01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:56,800
[woman 1]
We want to go home too!

732
01:04:56,880 --> 01:04:58,640
[man 1] Give us back the classics!
Give us our money back!

733
01:04:58,720 --> 01:05:01,240
- [woman 2] Shame!
- Shh! Silence!

734
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:05,480
[Eleonora] My son,
rest in my arms.

735
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,480
- [man 2] Enough!
- [man 3] Home!

736
01:05:07,560 --> 01:05:10,680
My belly was your cradle,

737
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:14,760
my arms will be your sepulchre.

738
01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:17,200
Let's rest.

739
01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:21,760
- [man 4] We want to go to sleep!
- [man 5] Dubois, "go and see the rats"!

740
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:23,640
[hum]

741
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:25,520
But I know…

742
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:31,400
than our sufferings
they will be told

743
01:05:32,960 --> 01:05:37,400
and that future generations
they will remember us.

744
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:40,720
[screams of disapproval]

745
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:51,800
[inaudible dialogue]

746
01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:04,880
[inaudible]

747
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:27,280
[audience] Long live the Duse!
Long live the Divine!

748
01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:30,480
Long live Duse! Long live Duse!

749
01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:32,720
[applause]

750
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,120
- What are you doing? Are you leaving us already, Mr. Vate?
- Engagements.

751
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:40,680
Well, sure.

752
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:45,000
You'd better go back to the movies.
Theater is not for you.

753
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:49,520
Stop being an archaeologist.
You are a pioneer.

754
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:03,720
[Eleonora gasps]

755
01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:09,840
[Eleonora] Gabriele, Gabriele…

756
01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:12,760
Gabriel, Gabriel,
Gabriele, Gabriele…

757
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:15,240
Gabriele, Gabriele…

758
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:17,560
Gabriel…

759
01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:57,520
[whispering] Gabriele.

760
01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:23,640
- [Giordano] Mrs. Duse.
- Jordan.

761
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:24,960
[Jordano] Divine.

762
01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:28,640
How long!

763
01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:35,960
The commander is busy,
I'll let you know right away.

764
01:08:36,399 --> 01:08:38,760
In the meantime, take a seat here.

765
01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:41,279
Can I offer you something?

766
01:08:41,359 --> 01:08:42,880
- [Eleonora] Thank you.
- Please.

767
01:08:55,640 --> 01:08:59,960
[man 1] Commander, here we go.
The time for revolution is ripe.

768
01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:02,640
Government and socialists
they are about to give up.

769
01:09:03,359 --> 01:09:07,000
One word and all the teams
of Italy will follow the Pope.

770
01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:09,960
[man 2]
The ultimatum expires at midnight.

771
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:15,359
[Gabriele] I could look out from here,
after meeting with my editor.

772
01:09:15,439 --> 01:09:20,120
[man 1] No, from Palazzo Marino.
There is already one of our tricolors on the balcony.

773
01:09:31,399 --> 01:09:33,160
Eleanor.

774
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:46,000
Gentlemen, Eleonora Duse!
The best of omens.

775
01:09:46,279 --> 01:09:51,800
The divine creature that destiny
he chose to redeem Italy.

776
01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:58,360
My only certainty is this woman.
Please excuse me.

777
01:09:58,440 --> 01:10:01,840
[man 1] Fascism knows how to recognize
who has the gift of command.

778
01:10:01,920 --> 01:10:05,120
Erm… I won't reveal it to Mussolini
these confidences of his.

779
01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:08,480
- I never mentioned him.
- [Gabriel] You're welcome.

780
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:18,480
[door closing]

781
01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:25,520
- What did those men want from you?
- The soul in exchange for power.

782
01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:28,760
One word of mine made of fire.

783
01:10:29,480 --> 01:10:30,880
Did you hear them?

784
01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:36,280
No one will be able to stop the oil spill,
at his head the poet!

785
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:38,840
[Gabriel laughs]

786
01:10:42,080 --> 01:10:45,160
The idea of a civil war
it should scare you.

787
01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:50,680
You could have said:
"No, I will not speak to your black dogs."

788
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:53,520
I'll look out on that balcony,

789
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:56,120
but I will say the opposite
of what they want.

790
01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:58,800
I will talk about life, not death.

791
01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:02,320
Their simian revolt will become
a real revolution

792
01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:04,640
of poetry and beauty.

793
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:13,520
Not even Gabriele D'Annunzio
could change destiny.

794
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:16,360
Whatever it is.

795
01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:21,800
When I win,
you will say the exact opposite.

796
01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:28,520
Gabriele, stay alive for me.

797
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:30,920
At least you.

798
01:11:33,440 --> 01:11:35,080
I would believe you…

799
01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:41,960
I would believe you if you answered with a little
of joy, a little tears

800
01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:45,880
when I dropped gifts
from heaven just for you.

801
01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:47,200
Stop it.

802
01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:54,240
Today you don't have to play the part
of the woman who still loves the poet.

803
01:11:57,200 --> 01:12:02,000
[shouting] I counted the years one by one
in which you decided not to meet me!

804
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:11,520
[Eleonora]
Have you seen how I've aged?

805
01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:14,760
I dreamed of you.

806
01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,160
That's why I decided to see you again.

807
01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:23,200
Only the failure
he could force you to come back to me.

808
01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,400
Your only mistake was that

809
01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:32,920
to rely on a cicisbeo
with two surnames and no talent.

810
01:12:34,480 --> 01:12:36,760
- The boos weren't for you.
- Were you there?

811
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:38,840
I hovered.

812
01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:08,000
Give me "Dead City."

813
01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:13,080
Without anything to expect.

814
01:13:20,440 --> 01:13:25,960
[Gabriele] History has decided
to reserve a place for us in Olympus.

815
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:38,040
Because not even in a hundred years
your name will be free from mine.

816
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:20,560
[Giacomino] Mrs. Duse.

817
01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:26,560
I thought about it all night
and there are only two possible ways.

818
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:30,600
- I don't understand what you're talking about.
- The first way is this…

819
01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:32,440
[clears throat]

820
01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:35,040
The text needs to be rewritten
from the first to the last beat,

821
01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:36,120
then it must be put back on probation.

822
01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:39,320
- I need ten days.
- Giacomo, stop.

823
01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:44,000
- The show is suspended.
- Is he suspended? For how long?

824
01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:47,680
There will be no more reruns of "Hecuba",

825
01:14:47,840 --> 01:14:50,280
neither in Milan nor in Rome
nor anywhere.

826
01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:53,480
It's... It's finished.

827
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,360
You can't do this to me, you know that?

828
01:14:57,440 --> 01:14:59,080
- I can't do this to you?
- [Giacomino] No.

829
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:00,520
That's who Duse is!

830
01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:03,160
Replaces Ibsen
with a young novice author

831
01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:06,840
and then throws it to the public
without giving him the opportunity to write.

832
01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:08,760
And time to rewrite…

833
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:12,240
[shouting] You haven't run out of time,
Giacomino! Look at me!

834
01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:14,360
You lacked talent!

835
01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:20,040
There is no Duse who can give it to you,
not even if he waited ten years for you!

836
01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:22,640
Look me straight in the eyes!

837
01:15:48,480 --> 01:15:51,480
[crowd shouting]

838
01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:57,880
[Gabriel, speaker]
From your thousand and thousand faces

839
01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:01,720
I see it shining

840
01:16:02,480 --> 01:16:05,520
a virile joy

841
01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:09,920
a male joy!

842
01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:13,080
He's a good actor.

843
01:16:15,240 --> 01:16:17,360
He's histrionic, yes.

844
01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:21,520
[whispering] We start rehearsals tomorrow
of "The Dead City".

845
01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:23,560
Nice, nice.

846
01:16:25,280 --> 01:16:26,960
[Gabriele's speech continues]

847
01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:30,920
I had done Anna
in my youth.

848
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:35,000
- [Giordano] Magnificent Anna.
- Now I'll do another Anna.

849
01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:38,080
An old Anna.

850
01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:42,160
A beautiful character, because she is blind.

851
01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:44,680
- [Giordano] Is she blind?
- She's blind.

852
01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:49,240
And I feel blind.

853
01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:55,280
Never like today, a word of kindness
had such power.

854
01:16:56,840 --> 01:17:01,760
All workers
they have to understand it. Everyone!

855
01:17:02,080 --> 01:17:07,480
Without distinction of species,
classy. Everyone!

856
01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:11,920
Nothing…
Nothing vital is possible

857
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:15,960
outside the country
and against the nation!

858
01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:21,080
[applause and cheers]

859
01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:41,960
- [Gabriele] Ghisola…
- [Eleonora] Gabriele.

860
01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:44,000
I came.

861
01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:49,040
[whispering] They cheer you,
but they don't listen to you, you know?

862
01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:51,880
It's not over. I…

863
01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:57,360
I will talk to Nitti and Mussolini
and I will stop this violence.

864
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:00,320
- You, you, you…
- Me, me, me.

865
01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:02,320
Me, me, me.

866
01:18:02,480 --> 01:18:06,920
We will make Italy a new Athens.

867
01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:11,200
I see, I see, I see, I see…
[laughs]

868
01:18:11,320 --> 01:18:15,120
- "The dead city."
- Yes, indeed.

869
01:18:15,400 --> 01:18:16,880
- Go to Rome.
- Yes, yes.

870
01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:20,080
Make it successful, please.
Lead her to success.

871
01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:24,720
It will be the stone on which we will build
a new country, I promise.

872
01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:28,800
I wanted to ask you something about…
Sorry, it has nothing to do with it.

873
01:18:29,480 --> 01:18:33,720
In the fifth act of "The Dead City",
I wanted to ask you,

874
01:18:34,480 --> 01:18:38,720
when Leonardo tells
how he killed his sister,

875
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:44,280
I would like to see him kill her.

876
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:48,280
Like Othello and Desdemona.

877
01:18:48,560 --> 01:18:51,800
Yes, true, like Othello and Desdemona,
because…

878
01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:54,400
[laughing] Because it's obscene.

879
01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:56,960
Because it's obscene, Ghisola.

880
01:18:57,280 --> 01:18:59,400
- [Eleonora] No.
- Yes.

881
01:18:59,600 --> 01:19:03,280
This tragedy is visible in everything

882
01:19:03,360 --> 01:19:06,080
because everything is invisible.

883
01:19:10,040 --> 01:19:11,200
I have to go.

884
01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:18,240
Go to Rome,
before it's too late.

885
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:23,480
Ghisola.

886
01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:38,520
[man, loudspeaker] General strike

887
01:19:38,640 --> 01:19:42,360
in defense of political freedoms
and trade unions.

888
01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:49,560
All trains are suspended
until legality is restored.

889
01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:52,080
[hum]

890
01:19:57,800 --> 01:19:59,640
[indistinct voices]

891
01:20:02,480 --> 01:20:03,960
[man] Strike called off!

892
01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:10,120
Now you bring me this train
up to Rome. Italy must run.

893
01:20:10,440 --> 01:20:14,080
Platform 7, everyone! Quick!

894
01:20:29,080 --> 01:20:31,360
- Are they free?
- [man] Wait a minute.

895
01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:36,200
[train snort]

896
01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:37,480
[fatigue verse]

897
01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:39,920
[Benassi] Here.

898
01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:47,040
Teacher, are you okay?

899
01:20:52,400 --> 01:20:54,080
We won't make it.

900
01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:01,080
But no, teacher.

901
01:21:02,680 --> 01:21:05,760
- We'll make it.
- We were wrong.

902
01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:10,880
Everything will be fine, as always.

903
01:21:25,480 --> 01:21:29,960
[Mussolini] Land fighters,
of sea and air!

904
01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:35,600
Black shirts of the revolution
and the legions!

905
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:41,560
The password

906
01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:47,280
it's only one!

907
01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:51,920
[march in background]

908
01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:54,360
[Mussolini] Win!

909
01:21:54,560 --> 01:21:56,600
[cheers]

910
01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:00,640
[Mussolini] And we will win!

911
01:22:01,280 --> 01:22:03,240
[alarm sirens]

912
01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:33,240
Done.

913
01:22:36,440 --> 01:22:37,920
It can be covered.

914
01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:53,280
No, I thought
that the results were immediate.

915
01:22:54,240 --> 01:22:56,320
No, it takes a few days.

916
01:22:56,560 --> 01:22:59,880
Always less than he expected
to be visited.

917
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:02,320
The doctor scolds me.

918
01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:03,680
No, it's not a reproach,

919
01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:06,680
but I'll tell you straight away that it's a period
rest is necessary.

920
01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:07,920
- [Eleonora] No.
- No?

921
01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:12,680
If I have to die, I will die,
but not strangled by debt.

922
01:23:15,320 --> 01:23:18,040
- I need to work.
- Are you on tour this period?

923
01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:22,280
No, I'm on probation. It's the same.

924
01:23:27,520 --> 01:23:28,600
Do you see it?

925
01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:32,560
All I have left is the job.

926
01:23:34,960 --> 01:23:38,280
Which… is my poison,

927
01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:41,520
but it is also my oxygen.

928
01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:45,200
It's my cure, doctor.

929
01:23:53,040 --> 01:23:54,520
[Enrichetta] My dear mother,

930
01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:59,320
I stopped counting letters months ago
that you send me every week,

931
01:23:59,840 --> 01:24:03,200
but I always read them all,
from start to finish.

932
01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:08,040
Reading you it almost seems like it
that nothing happened between us.

933
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:12,680
On the other hand, we know,
you are the master of fiction.

934
01:24:14,440 --> 01:24:17,000
But I decided not to pretend anymore,
mom.

935
01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:21,240
I decided that your good
it's more important than mine.

936
01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:24,560
So, smile.

937
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:28,560
I will never give you again
the displeasure of my presence.

938
01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:34,160
I understand
that you are not my enemy.

939
01:24:35,440 --> 01:24:38,120
You just never wanted me.

940
01:24:39,320 --> 01:24:42,480
For forty years
this was my fear.

941
01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:47,280
And now that you are back to being
the only thing you know how to be,

942
01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:51,360
an actress, I understand.

943
01:24:52,320 --> 01:24:53,520
[muffled] Désirée is missing.

944
01:24:53,600 --> 01:24:55,720
[Enrichetta]
And my fear is gone.

945
01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:58,520
[muffled] Where is my Désirée? Where?

946
01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:02,800
[Enrichetta] So please, mother,
don't write to me anymore.

947
01:25:04,680 --> 01:25:08,760
Because your eyes are the only one
which can give me hope.

948
01:25:09,960 --> 01:25:14,480
But after hope, fear would return
and I don't want to be afraid.

949
01:25:16,680 --> 01:25:21,040
Let me stay here,
in the peace of those who understood…

950
01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:29,160
and is no longer afraid of losing you
because he knows he never had you.

951
01:25:30,760 --> 01:25:33,280
[inaudible dialogue]

952
01:25:45,520 --> 01:25:49,480
This reading is a sacred moment.
Let's move on.

953
01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:54,400
- I don't see you.
- I can hardly see you.

954
01:25:54,480 --> 01:25:58,000
[Manrico] I can hardly see you.
My heart twists. Speaks.

955
01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:01,320
You look at your sister and smile.

956
01:26:02,640 --> 01:26:06,040
But a cloudy thought
it passes through your spirit.

957
01:26:06,120 --> 01:26:10,400
Ninth.
More truth in the incest confession.

958
01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:12,880
"You look at your sister and smile

959
01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:15,720
and a thought crosses you
the spirit."

960
01:26:15,800 --> 01:26:18,800
More scary.
"A cloudy thought..."

961
01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:21,280
You want your sister!

962
01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:22,480
[doorbell]

963
01:26:22,560 --> 01:26:26,200
It has to be
like spitting out a handful of nails.

964
01:26:28,280 --> 01:26:30,800
Mrs. Duse is busy
at this moment.

965
01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:33,280
It'll just take a moment, you name it.

966
01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:36,720
No, I'm not calling her,
he's rehearsing with his actors.

967
01:26:42,920 --> 01:26:44,840
- Good morning.
- [man] Good morning.

968
01:26:47,720 --> 01:26:50,080
The head of government
wants to talk to you.

969
01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:54,680
Is this a trap, gentlemen?

970
01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:58,360
It's a personal invitation
of the president at Palazzo Chigi.

971
01:26:59,200 --> 01:27:01,880
Eleonora, refuse, please.

972
01:27:02,200 --> 01:27:04,560
- I accept.
- Don't accept.

973
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:07,840
Don't accept. They will use you.

974
01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:12,000
Because you don't want him to do anything
great for our country?

975
01:27:12,440 --> 01:27:13,560
Don't you care about Italy?

976
01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:21,320
I'm going to go get ready.

977
01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:44,560
[Eleonora coughs]

978
01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:09,680
[Giacomino] Comrade,
dispatch for administration.

979
01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:18,760
Giacomino.

980
01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:23,920
You are here too.

981
01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:26,680
How are you?

982
01:28:27,920 --> 01:28:29,880
You and I have already said goodbye.

983
01:28:45,880 --> 01:28:46,720
[Eleonora] Désirée.

984
01:28:55,240 --> 01:28:59,000
Mrs. Duse,
she knows that I cannot receive gifts.

985
01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:05,440
No, it's a gift that I give to her
because she does it to Italy.

986
01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:09,440
What is this, a church?

987
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:14,200
Yes, exactly.

988
01:29:15,760 --> 01:29:19,000
It's a temple,
a temple for the theatre.

989
01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:23,200
A theater that waits
to be edified by her.

990
01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:29,040
For the orphans of our fallen
and for all Italians.

991
01:29:30,840 --> 01:29:32,520
And the Italians.

992
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:36,000
I have a surprise for her too.

993
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:40,680
The government intends to take

994
01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:43,800
a series of measures against him,
Mrs. Duse.

995
01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:46,840
Measures?

996
01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:51,280
I'm always afraid of measurements.

997
01:29:51,360 --> 01:29:53,320
[laughter]

998
01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:57,040
We'll take care of it
to repay his debts.

999
01:30:01,440 --> 01:30:03,960
- Well, thanks.
- And that's not all.

1000
01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:07,000
Furthermore, we predict
to assign her an annuity,

1001
01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:10,600
a monthly sum, in his name.

1002
01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:19,560
She doesn't have to worry about anything anymore,
we will take care of everything.

1003
01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:24,760
Now forgive me,
the French ambassador is waiting for me.

1004
01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:26,080
Ah.

1005
01:30:27,560 --> 01:30:30,240
- [in French] My compliments.
- [Mussolini, in French] Thank you.

1006
01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:31,120
[Eleonora] I…

1007
01:30:33,960 --> 01:30:38,320
I leave her in good hands.
My collaborators will report everything to me.

1008
01:30:38,400 --> 01:30:39,200
Ah!

1009
01:30:39,400 --> 01:30:44,400
Courage, Mrs. Duse,
together we will rebuild Italy.

1010
01:30:45,440 --> 01:30:47,000
Long live Italy.

1011
01:30:54,160 --> 01:30:56,520
[inaudible dialogue]

1012
01:31:12,480 --> 01:31:14,280
[Eleonora] They are the muses

1013
01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:19,120
who dictated this to me… this…

1014
01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:24,520
these shapes,
in a sleep that resembled death.

1015
01:31:24,760 --> 01:31:28,880
It was a very specific dream,
I just followed him.

1016
01:31:29,440 --> 01:31:32,480
Because I think we need to follow
your own dreams.

1017
01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:35,280
I think we have something
inside us.

1018
01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:38,800
I don't know what you can call it,
he is stronger than us...

1019
01:31:39,080 --> 01:31:41,520
[inaudible voice]

1020
01:31:55,560 --> 01:31:57,360
It's spiritual.

1021
01:31:58,200 --> 01:31:59,520
Until we meet again.

1022
01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:02,440
Thanks for the annuity.

1023
01:32:12,880 --> 01:32:14,560
[door opening]

1024
01:32:15,760 --> 01:32:17,200
[Matilde] Eleonora.

1025
01:32:18,120 --> 01:32:21,600
Have you seen?
They didn't feed me to the lions.

1026
01:32:21,960 --> 01:32:23,120
[laughs]

1027
01:32:23,600 --> 01:32:25,520
- [Matilde] Good, good.
- Stupid girl.

1028
01:32:25,600 --> 01:32:28,600
No, ma'am,
Don't put this in my head.

1029
01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:31,920
Now you sit down,
you sit on the couch.

1030
01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:34,280
The doctor came to see you.

1031
01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:38,240
- What a lovely surprise!
- [Matilde] Memo. Memo.

1032
01:32:39,680 --> 01:32:41,600
- Come, Désirée.
- [Matilde] Thank you. Desiree.

1033
01:32:41,720 --> 01:32:42,560
You come.

1034
01:32:42,640 --> 01:32:46,080
[Matilde] Now we are here,
you stay calm, calm,

1035
01:32:46,400 --> 01:32:48,320
and listen to the doctor, who has to talk to you.

1036
01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:52,040
No, I have to say something first.
I no longer have debts.

1037
01:32:53,640 --> 01:32:55,320
- Well.
- [Eleonora] The government will take care of it.

1038
01:32:56,400 --> 01:32:57,760
I'm happy about it.

1039
01:32:58,800 --> 01:33:02,320
In my opinion, it took
a good word Gabriele.

1040
01:33:02,840 --> 01:33:03,800
Certain.

1041
01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:07,480
Because Gabriele,
when it has to be there, it is there.

1042
01:33:08,160 --> 01:33:11,880
Then they also give me an annuity
for artistic merit.

1043
01:33:11,960 --> 01:33:14,040
I don't know,
a kind of pension for old people.

1044
01:33:16,480 --> 01:33:19,200
But aren't you happy?
You always with this face.

1045
01:33:21,560 --> 01:33:26,880
You deserve everything, Eleonora,
but now we have to talk, huh?

1046
01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:32,240
Listen to the doctor, what he has to tell you
some very important things.

1047
01:33:32,320 --> 01:33:34,880
Don't talk to me
as if I were an old lady.

1048
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:37,400
[Matilde] An old lady, a little girl...

1049
01:33:37,560 --> 01:33:39,240
[laugh]

1050
01:33:40,040 --> 01:33:42,840
[Matilde] She's serious.
The matter is serious, Eleonora.

1051
01:33:43,040 --> 01:33:45,040
- Mrs. Duse.
- [Matilde] Please.

1052
01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:46,880
Uh, uh!

1053
01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:52,160
I promised her I would
passed through the x-rays, remember?

1054
01:33:55,280 --> 01:33:56,320
[Eleonora, shouting] No!

1055
01:33:56,400 --> 01:33:58,840
Don't let me see them,
don't show them to me.

1056
01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:03,600
[Luciano] From this moment on, you must
stop fighting his body

1057
01:34:03,680 --> 01:34:04,880
and start fighting for him.

1058
01:34:04,960 --> 01:34:05,760
Yes.

1059
01:34:05,840 --> 01:34:10,800
- Take care, rest and nothing else.
- Yes, I will, after the tour I will.

1060
01:34:11,080 --> 01:34:15,720
I'm telling you this must
become his only commandment.

1061
01:34:16,280 --> 01:34:18,600
Now that you don't have to worry anymore
of his debts.

1062
01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:20,880
[Eleonora]
I'm telling you I'll listen to you.

1063
01:34:21,880 --> 01:34:22,840
But…

1064
01:34:23,960 --> 01:34:29,640
I'll be able to say goodbye to the scenes
my way, right?

1065
01:34:29,840 --> 01:34:33,440
I went on stage
when I was four!

1066
01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:36,080
- I'm talking about my life.
- Eleonora, enough!

1067
01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:40,520
The company is dissolved,
there will be no tour. Here you are.

1068
01:34:40,640 --> 01:34:41,600
What are these?

1069
01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:44,720
[Matilde] These are the letters of resignation
that I had your actors sign.

1070
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:46,960
Except Memo, who refused.

1071
01:34:57,800 --> 01:35:02,120
Terminal illness?
And wait for death to come?

1072
01:35:09,080 --> 01:35:13,720
I sacrificed my life to see her
shine once again.

1073
01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:16,160
Only one.

1074
01:35:17,960 --> 01:35:20,880
- How dare you? How dare you?
- [Eleonora] Cursed! Cursed!

1075
01:35:21,280 --> 01:35:24,640
[shouting] You want to bury me
while I'm still alive!

1076
01:35:24,720 --> 01:35:29,360
- I'm alive longer than you!
- You're digging your own grave! Don't you understand?

1077
01:35:31,840 --> 01:35:34,200
[gasping]

1078
01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:42,960
[inaudible dialogue]

1079
01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:52,680
- [man] Good evening.
- Good evening.

1080
01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:55,320
- Two tickets to Venice.
- [man] Yes.

1081
01:35:57,280 --> 01:35:58,400
You're welcome.

1082
01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:01,960
[coughs]

1083
01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:33,520
[slow breathing]

1084
01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:50,400
- [Eleonora] Next stop?
- Castel dell'Orso, ma'am.

1085
01:38:01,280 --> 01:38:03,520
- [Eleonora] Thank you.
- [man] You're welcome, ma'am.

1086
01:38:25,360 --> 01:38:26,960
Jordan!

1087

[piano music]

1088
01:38:35,600 --> 01:38:37,200
What happened?

1089
01:38:37,280 --> 01:38:41,440
No, nothing, a sudden,
a sudden.

1090
01:38:44,040 --> 01:38:46,720
But how? I do not understand.

1091
01:38:49,200 --> 01:38:51,360
It's over, it's over.

1092
01:38:51,880 --> 01:38:53,360
But something serious?

1093
01:38:54,080 --> 01:38:57,360
No, not really.
Nothing is ever serious.

1094
01:38:57,880 --> 01:39:01,040
- [Eleonora] How come "nothing is ever serious"?
- Not with him.

1095
01:39:01,480 --> 01:39:04,120
[piano music]

1096
01:39:06,720 --> 01:39:08,120
[Eleonora] Luisa!

1097
01:39:14,160 --> 01:39:15,640
Eleanor!

1098
01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:20,000
- Are you here for him?
- Yes.

1099
01:39:20,200 --> 01:39:24,600
I am here for him day and night.
He woke up.

1100
01:39:24,680 --> 01:39:26,960
But what are you talking about?

1101
01:39:29,520 --> 01:39:31,600
He was here and… He was here and…

1102
01:39:32,520 --> 01:39:36,160
[laughing] It flew!
“Like the Archangel,” he said.

1103
01:39:36,680 --> 01:39:40,240
It's not possible,
he texted me that he was fine.

1104
01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:43,760
He is risen.

1105
01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:11,200
[Gabriel, in a weak voice]
Morning star…

1106
01:40:12,720 --> 01:40:16,240
You always arrive unexpectedly.

1107
01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:22,240
Sit down, sit down.

1108
01:40:23,440 --> 01:40:24,640
Here.

1109
01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:35,040
Because you lied to me
in your letters?

1110
01:40:37,720 --> 01:40:42,120
It can happen… in many years.

1111
01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:48,400
- Which letter do you mean?
- Why didn't you tell me about the coma?

1112
01:40:48,640 --> 01:40:53,280
Because so much
you wouldn't have worried anyway.

1113
01:40:58,120 --> 01:41:01,000
What did you come to ask me
this time?

1114
01:41:02,800 --> 01:41:04,720
[Eleonora]
I didn't come to ask you anything.

1115
01:41:05,440 --> 01:41:08,680
I just came to thank you.

1116
01:41:09,280 --> 01:41:10,480
Of what?

1117
01:41:13,160 --> 01:41:16,640
[Eleonora] Like "about what"?
Of intercession.

1118
01:41:16,800 --> 01:41:18,000
Ah!

1119
01:41:19,560 --> 01:41:22,600
Intercession is something for saints.

1120
01:41:25,640 --> 01:41:27,120
Mussolini.

1121
01:41:32,240 --> 01:41:35,400
- Have you met?
- [Eleonora] Of course.

1122
01:41:37,480 --> 01:41:41,160
You too are in the butterfly net.

1123
01:41:43,880 --> 01:41:45,440
But which butterflies?

1124
01:41:48,040 --> 01:41:51,440
- He also offered me an annuity.
- An annuity?

1125
01:41:53,200 --> 01:41:55,640
Thanks for what?

1126
01:41:57,800 --> 01:42:01,880
Why do you keep lying to me
even when I know very well

1127
01:42:01,960 --> 01:42:06,200
that it was you who called him
and you forced him to meet me?

1128
01:42:06,840 --> 01:42:10,400
Because you don't want to accept a thank you
for once you deserve it?

1129
01:42:10,960 --> 01:42:12,240
[laughs]

1130
01:42:12,520 --> 01:42:16,360
I have always accepted everything from you.

1131
01:42:17,560 --> 01:42:22,720
The slaps, the spitting,
the thanks, the tears...

1132
01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:27,680
But I don't deserve either one in the other
this time.

1133
01:42:31,080 --> 01:42:36,280
If that fake Caesar buried you
under an alms,

1134
01:42:37,080 --> 01:42:39,320
It's not me you have to say thank you to.

1135
01:42:39,880 --> 01:42:44,280
He promised me to build
the theater with all the white walls,

1136
01:42:44,680 --> 01:42:46,840
exactly like in my dream.

1137
01:42:47,240 --> 01:42:49,720
[laughing] Eleonora Duse

1138
01:42:50,600 --> 01:42:54,760
is incapable of recognizing an actor…

1139
01:42:57,600 --> 01:43:01,320
if he finds it off stage.

1140
01:43:03,440 --> 01:43:07,880
You and I will be together again.

1141
01:43:08,400 --> 01:43:12,840
You will write new works
and I will play them again.

1142
01:43:13,400 --> 01:43:16,360
Then the young people will come to see them.

1143
01:43:16,800 --> 01:43:19,760
"We will make Italy
a new Athens."

1144
01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:21,920
They are your words.

1145
01:43:22,320 --> 01:43:24,000
My words…

1146
01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:31,160
And what did that tell you
exactly?

1147
01:43:33,160 --> 01:43:38,640
He listened to me, for a long time
and very carefully.

1148
01:43:38,720 --> 01:43:40,000
And then? What?

1149
01:43:40,080 --> 01:43:44,040
Then he told me that
we'll see each other again to talk about the theater.

1150
01:43:44,200 --> 01:43:46,720
- When will you see each other again?
- I don't know, soon.

1151
01:43:47,240 --> 01:43:49,200
- How soon?
- I don't know, it depends...

1152
01:43:49,280 --> 01:43:52,000
- Is it up to you?
- Yes, certainly.

1153
01:43:52,360 --> 01:43:55,040
Nothing depends on you,
nor from me, Ghisola!

1154
01:43:55,320 --> 01:43:58,680
We are dust to be thrown to the wind
and to forget!

1155
01:43:58,760 --> 01:44:00,120
[shouting] Why are you talking like that?

1156
01:44:00,200 --> 01:44:03,160
[shouting] They made fun of you!
They made fun of you!

1157
01:44:06,080 --> 01:44:09,480
[gasping]

1158
01:44:21,440 --> 01:44:26,560
With those four cents
they stuffed you.

1159
01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:31,840
[Gabriele] Stay with me!

1160
01:44:31,920 --> 01:44:33,560
Get it! Get it! Get it!

1161
01:44:33,640 --> 01:44:34,760
Go! Go!

1162
01:44:34,840 --> 01:44:37,680
Leave this Boeotian Italy to its fate!

1163
01:44:38,160 --> 01:44:41,680
- We do the theater here!
- Come and get it!

1164
01:44:41,760 --> 01:44:43,800
- No, no, Ghisola!
- [Eleonora] Come and get it!

1165
01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:47,040
- [shouting] Go! Go!
- [shouting] I'll stay here!

1166
01:44:47,240 --> 01:44:49,880
- I will write for you again!
- Go!

1167
01:44:51,400 --> 01:44:53,240
[shouting] Ghisola!

1168
01:45:41,400 --> 01:45:44,440
[inaudible dialogue]

1169
01:46:29,640 --> 01:46:31,520
[Eleonora, in French]
"Live, if you believe me,

1170
01:46:31,880 --> 01:46:33,840
don't wait for tomorrow.

1171
01:46:34,640 --> 01:46:38,520
Gather the roses of life today."

1172
01:46:48,160 --> 01:46:50,160
[in Italian] I love roses.

1173
01:46:58,960 --> 01:47:00,840
[Eleonora] Enrichetta.

1174
01:47:00,920 --> 01:47:02,520
[in English]
Say hello to grandma!

1175
01:47:04,200 --> 01:47:05,880
Enrichetta!

1176
01:47:07,720 --> 01:47:09,640
[Eleonora laughs]

1177
01:47:14,160 --> 01:47:15,880
[Eleonora] Enrichetta!

1178
01:47:19,360 --> 01:47:22,400
Love! Love!

1179
01:47:26,040 --> 01:47:27,880
[Eleonora, in English] The children…

1180
01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:39,480
[Enrichetta] Nora!

1181
01:47:40,640 --> 01:47:42,120
[in English] How many times have I told you

1182
01:47:42,200 --> 01:47:44,320
not to touch your hair while eating,
please.

1183
01:47:45,040 --> 01:47:46,120
[Eleonora] Mmh.

1184
01:47:47,120 --> 01:47:50,680
Look what you always did too
the same thing when you were little.

1185
01:47:51,040 --> 01:47:53,960
- Ti ti ti ti. Like this.
- Oh, yes? I don't remember it.

1186
01:47:54,040 --> 01:47:57,320
[in English]
All the food in your hair!

1187
01:47:58,480 --> 01:48:00,760
Your mother wasn't good.

1188
01:48:00,920 --> 01:48:02,640
[laugh]

1189
01:48:08,680 --> 01:48:10,880
[Enrichetta, in Italian]
Grandma makes you laugh, doesn't she?

1190
01:48:12,720 --> 01:48:16,120
It would be nice if grandmother
was always with us, right?

1191
01:48:16,360 --> 01:48:17,320
Don't you think?

1192
01:48:19,360 --> 01:48:20,880
Yes, that would be nice.

1193
01:48:21,400 --> 01:48:25,120
I announce to you that grandmother is coming to London.

1194
01:48:26,160 --> 01:48:27,640
[laugh]

1195
01:48:27,760 --> 01:48:31,840
We will all live together. Everyone.
Are you happy?

1196
01:48:31,920 --> 01:48:34,000
I'm going to London.

1197
01:48:34,480 --> 01:48:35,840
[in English]
In London!

1198
01:48:41,360 --> 01:48:43,640
[Eleonora coughs]

1199
01:48:54,240 --> 01:48:57,920
[in English]
Mom, why does grandma always cough?

1200
01:48:58,400 --> 01:48:59,880
Why, mom?

1201
01:49:01,720 --> 01:49:05,680
[in English] Because grandma is tired
and he needs to rest.

1202
01:49:06,880 --> 01:49:08,800
He needs our care.

1203
01:49:14,640 --> 01:49:16,040
Desiree!

1204
01:49:18,600 --> 01:49:21,200
Désirée, where can I find the clothes?

1205
01:49:23,040 --> 01:49:25,680
[in English]
I'll be right back. Take care of your sister.

1206
01:49:27,280 --> 01:49:28,680
Desiree!

1207
01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:32,440
[coughs]

1208
01:49:40,160 --> 01:49:42,560
Nora and Halley need to be…

1209
01:49:45,680 --> 01:49:47,640
What does this mean?

1210
01:49:52,640 --> 01:49:54,560
Pure mountain air.

1211
01:49:56,320 --> 01:49:57,880
Do you want to try?

1212
01:50:09,560 --> 01:50:12,240
Parents must die,
Enrichetta.

1213
01:50:14,360 --> 01:50:17,480
It could have happened
much earlier.

1214
01:50:21,000 --> 01:50:22,840
Or much later.

1215
01:50:26,240 --> 01:50:29,520
I've been carrying the cross all my life
of your absence.

1216
01:50:29,760 --> 01:50:32,440
I'm tired of your no's,
of your omissions.

1217
01:50:32,520 --> 01:50:34,960
I'm tired of being a stranger to you!

1218
01:50:36,840 --> 01:50:38,720
You're so angry...

1219
01:50:42,760 --> 01:50:45,360
I want you to look at me
how you look at Désirée.

1220
01:50:49,160 --> 01:50:52,000
You are love…

1221
01:50:53,560 --> 01:50:55,520
of my life.

1222
01:50:55,600 --> 01:50:57,600
Ninth.

1223
01:51:00,120 --> 01:51:05,280
You are the love of my life.

1224
01:51:09,360 --> 01:51:10,800
Help me.

1225
01:51:13,960 --> 01:51:16,000
Help me if you want to help me.

1226
01:51:28,840 --> 01:51:31,920
"When Pinocchio entered
in the puppet theater,

1227
01:51:32,320 --> 01:51:35,320
Harlequin saw this and stopped acting.

1228
01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:38,320
'Am I dreaming or am I awake?'

1229
01:51:38,600 --> 01:51:41,400
'It's Pinocchio! It's Pinocchio!',
Pulcinella shouted.

1230
01:51:42,200 --> 01:51:45,120
'It's Pinocchio! It's Pinocchio!',
Gianduia shouted.

1231
01:51:45,920 --> 01:51:49,520
And all the puppets
from the wings they came onto the stage.

1232
01:51:49,800 --> 01:51:53,200
And Pinocchio jumped in front

1233
01:51:53,400 --> 01:51:57,520
then he jumped on his head
of the conductor

1234
01:51:57,600 --> 01:51:59,400
and then darted onto the scene.

1235
01:52:00,000 --> 01:52:04,400
But the audience from the audience
he became impatient

1236
01:52:04,480 --> 01:52:06,280
and began to shout:

1237
01:52:06,600 --> 01:52:10,320
'We want our own comedy!'
'We want our own comedy!'

1238
01:52:10,760 --> 01:52:14,000
Then the puppeteer came out.

1239
01:52:14,240 --> 01:52:19,000
Such an ugly big man
that was scary just looking at it.

1240
01:52:19,480 --> 01:52:23,040
He had a long black beard

1241
01:52:23,120 --> 01:52:25,960
like an ink scribble.

1242
01:52:26,160 --> 01:52:29,040
She was so long that when she walked…

1243
01:52:29,120 --> 01:52:29,920
[stamps his feet]

1244
01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:33,000
…he walked on it, limping.

1245
01:52:33,200 --> 01:52:36,000
He had a huge mouth

1246
01:52:36,400 --> 01:52:37,520
which he seemed to want…

1247
01:52:37,600 --> 01:52:39,800
[shouting] eat all the children.

1248
01:52:40,040 --> 01:52:43,200
[shouting] 'You dared to interrupt
my show!'

1249
01:52:43,880 --> 01:52:45,640
Then he looked at Gianduia.
'And why are you laughing?'

1250
01:52:46,480 --> 01:52:50,960
'But I…' said Gianduia.
'I am close to my friend Pinocchio.'

1251
01:52:51,040 --> 01:52:53,000
'Get away from here, Gianduia!'

1252
01:52:53,080 --> 01:52:54,000
[chuckles]

1253
01:52:54,080 --> 01:52:56,120
'You, Pinocchio…

1254
01:52:57,080 --> 01:52:58,680
I am very happy

1255
01:52:58,760 --> 01:53:03,960
because I have over there in the kitchen
a beautiful mutton that is roasting,

1256
01:53:04,040 --> 01:53:09,560
but I had no more wood
and you this beautiful fresh pine wood

1257
01:53:09,680 --> 01:53:12,280
Now I'm going to do it
a nice blaze.'"

1258
01:53:12,360 --> 01:53:15,360
[Enrichetta, shouting] You're crazy!
Stop it, enough!

1259
01:53:16,360 --> 01:53:18,200
You're crazy.

1260
01:53:20,040 --> 01:53:21,920
[Enrichetta, in English] Everything's fine.

1261
01:53:23,880 --> 01:53:25,320
It's time to sleep.

1262
01:53:27,560 --> 01:53:29,880
It's not real, it's just a story.

1263
01:53:33,880 --> 01:53:37,240
It's nothing, it's nothing.

1264
01:53:39,640 --> 01:53:42,560
It's just a game.

1265
01:53:43,080 --> 01:53:44,160
There's nothing true about it.

1266
01:53:44,240 --> 01:53:45,280
[shot]

1267
01:53:45,360 --> 01:53:46,960
"I... I am a Fire Eater!

1268
01:53:47,200 --> 01:53:50,840
You interrupted my show
and you will all burn in my fireplace!"

1269
01:53:50,920 --> 01:53:53,840
[shouting] Enough! Enough!

1270
01:53:56,960 --> 01:53:58,600
Enough.

1271
01:55:46,040 --> 01:55:47,720
Mom!

1272
01:55:49,560 --> 01:55:50,880
Mom!

1273
01:55:52,400 --> 01:55:53,840
Mom!

1274
01:56:02,680 --> 01:56:05,040
[Eleonora] Enrichetta, "ma" babe.

1275
01:56:06,960 --> 01:56:10,240
There are three things
which I passionately desire.

1276
01:56:11,240 --> 01:56:14,880
Work, live, die.

1277
01:56:15,800 --> 01:56:18,680
Three, passionately.

1278
01:56:20,280 --> 01:56:24,320
And in this moment,
the fear of working drives me crazy.

1279
01:56:25,280 --> 01:56:28,840
And without work, then,
no reason to live.

1280
01:56:29,360 --> 01:56:33,960
And dying... you can't always do it
when you want it.

1281
01:56:35,000 --> 01:56:38,600
But days happen
where I lose my way.

1282
01:56:40,000 --> 01:56:44,920
I don't know how to start again,

1283
01:56:45,840 --> 01:56:50,000
but I know it's my home
it's the crossing.

1284
01:56:51,120 --> 01:56:52,960
Go ahead, then.

1285
01:56:54,640 --> 01:56:57,080
I embrace you, heart and soul.

1286
01:56:58,240 --> 01:57:02,080
I know you won't understand me
and for this I have already forgiven you.

1287
01:57:02,800 --> 01:57:03,880
“Maman.”

1288
01:58:21,720 --> 01:58:22,680
No.

1289
01:58:26,960 --> 01:58:29,640
I have never been so cold.
