Wonderful!

Soldiers, break file.

-Morosi. -I'm going to…

-No, you, no. -Why not?

Because you spoke, because you begged,

you spoke, so you are done with the race.

So run ten more laps.

Run!

One, two. One, two. One, two. Pick up those legs!

Look at this! He ruined me!

Now I have blisters! Look at this!

I have blisters! May he rot!

-What happened? -Can't you see?

-What are you putting on it? -Some lotion.

Lotion?

Poor guy, let's help him.

-OK! -Let's give him a massage.

-OK. -Are you happy?

Softly. Softly, it really hurts.

-Let me do it. -No, it's tickling me!

Be good!

-Oh, God! What have you done to me? -Pass me the brush!

Not the brush! You are hurting me! Help! Stop!

-Hand me a rag. -No, stop!

-Hand me a rag! -Help! That's enough!

We did a great job!

-Hey, are you sleeping? -I'm thinking about my girlfriend.

You have a girlfriend? So you're cheating on your wife!

No, it's Laura I don't consider her my wife.

She will always be my girlfriend.

You can never be wrong

If you believe

Only what your eyes see

There's only one truth

Just one truth

When the sun rises in the west

When the rivers rise above the mountains

When you see that I'm about to betray you

Be assured that you are just dreaming

Because you know

You know that The sun always rises in the east

You know that the rivers flow down From the mountains

You know that my heart can never Betray you

So rest assured And believe only your eyes

Time will show me

My love, reason

I never betrayed you

There's only one truth

Just one truth

When the sun rises in the west

When the rivers rise above the mountains

When you see that I'm about to betray you

Be assured that you are just dreaming

Because you know

When you see that I'm about to betray you

Rest assured that you are just dreaming

Because you know that The sun always rises in the east

You know that the rivers flow down From the mountains

You know that my heart can never Betray you

So rest assured And believe only your eyes

Your eyes

Believe only your eyes

Your eyes

Nobody is sleeping.

But Sammarco is snoring like a bear.

Guys, come with me, I got an idea.

-Come. Quiet. -Quietly.

-Come on! -Quiet, quietly.

Sammarco!

What are you doing there?

Get back to the barracks! I'll get you in trouble!

Go away! I'll send you to jail!

-What a great prank! -What happened?

For the last days of military service we have an extra hour of free time.

Tuesday, the command is organizing a surprise event.

-All of that? -From tomorrow no more exercises!

-Except for punishment! -Tell the sergeant!

-Did you say one hour more? -Yes.

Guys, let's organize an event right away!

The girls

-Let's go dancing -Yes, let's do it!

-First we have to find some girls! -I'll take care of the girls!

Thank you, guys, but I can't go.

-Come on, Gianni! -Let's go!

-No, I'm not going! -Just this time!

-Don't insist. -Check out Sammarco!

-Sammarco, are you already sleeping? -Did you get flat feet?

You are a bunch of jokesters! You gave me two left shoes!

You wanted to trick me with the shoes, but I'm still going out!

-Shoes? -Shoes?

Aren't they a bit tight?

But I can walk and sleep all the same!

-So, let's go to the girls? -No, I can't go.

Gianni!

I'm sorry, guys, but my wife has just arrived from Rome.

-See you later, bye, Sammarco. -Goodbye.

-Wives are our downfall. -They are worse than sergeants!

-Let's go. -Come, Sammarco.

Sammarco, move it! Run!

-I wasn't expecting you today. -I came to surprise you.

And surprise me with who? A corporal?

-Where can we go? -I'm free until 10:00.

-Do you have leave? -Almost.

When military service is about to end, they give us some free time.

If I stay with you until 10:00 what time will I get back to Rome?

Sleep here and leave tomorrow. There's a hotel 200 meters from here.

-Lina will worry. -Choose me or the housekeeper.

-Lina is part of the family. -Choose me and you can call her.

Sir, yes sir!

-Good morning. -Good morning.

-I would like a room. -We don't give rooms by the hour.

Gianni! This man insults me and you laugh!

-Miss, I wasn't insulting you. -It's "Mrs," thank you.

I am her husband.

Here is my ID.

Please excuse me, Mrs. Raimondi.

Yes, of course, it's you! It's Gianni Raimondi, the singer.

I didn't recognize you.

Sometimes I don't even recognize myself.

-It happens. -A single room with a shower.

-Single? -I have to sleep in the barracks.

-And your luggage? -I wasn't planning on staying.

Can I please have a toothbrush?

-Yes. Your room is number 14. -Thank you.

-Goodbye. -Good day.

When I'm not around do you sleep with the waitresses?

-What? -Look at your fellow soldiers.

They love each other, just like us.

Take my arm, I don't want to look like a waitress.

Poor guy!

-Did you hurt yourself? -No, I always fall.

-I just love kids. -Especially when they're screaming.

-Let's go feed the swans. -First let's feed Gianni.

-Are you hungry? -Yes.

With all those exercises, marching, punishment, I get hungry.

OK, so I'll buy you a Neapolitan pizza in Naples.

You're buying? How long will it take to get there?

-I don't want to be late. -OK, we won't.

It's strange that Carelli never spoke to you again.

Your artistic director was always strange.

Three months ago he was in such a rush. He acted like he needed my song.

-Have you finished it? -Yes, but I have to perfect it.

-I have to revise some of the words. -You have to work in the barracks!

Fortunately, soon I will return to normal life

and Carelli will see!

I can easily change my record label.

There's no need to argue.

-Mr. Raimondi. -Gianni.

-Can I have your autograph? -Me too.

Thank you.

-Thank you. How cute! -His wife is cute too.

Let's go, they recognized me and will want me to sing a song.

-And you wouldn't want to? -It's better that we go.

Give me my purse.

-Laura, I only sing for you. -Thank you.

I want to see if you like my song.

I worked on it a lot. I hope that you like it.

-Do you want to hear it? -Yes, let me hear it.

If my heart keeps wishing

It will not just be a dream

I count in my diary

The nights and the days

That take you away from me

The clock

Is already ticking three o'clock

Without you, without me

What can I do

If I can't sleep?

I can cry

And I feel on my pillow

My heart beating

And desperately looking for you

But if my heart keeps wishing

It will not just be a dream

I count in my diary

The nights and the days

That keep you away

-What do you think? -It's a beautiful song.

-The belt. -A chastity one!

Don't get smart with me!

I'll make you do 200 laps around the courtyard!

-By the moonlight! -You will end up destroying me.

Sergeant, no one can hear me. Are you married?

-Yes, why? -My wife came to visit me,

we had a wonderful evening, then I took her to her hotel.

She kept me late.

I understand. I did the same thing when I was corporal major.

No one can hear me here. I did 150 laps!

-You want to take it out on me? -I don't want to.

But discipline is needed!

I have to throw you inside, private Raimondi.

Sir, yes sir.

-Sentry! -At your orders!

Hurry.

Take him to solitary.

-Good night, private Raimondi. -Good night, Sergeant.

At my age I can still sleep on a table.

Let's go, Gianni.

OK, thank you.

Hello?

Hi, Lina. Sorry if I woke you up.

You didn't wake me up, I've been waiting for you since midnight.

I made you dinner.

So? You're going to stay there?

I am so happy. You with him and him with you, together!

No, Lina, we are not together.

I am in my bed and he's not.

Mr. Gianni is not with you?

No, he's in the barracks.

He's sleeping on his cot.

To be with you is never enough

It's over, but I would start again

This love is a game

That I'll never get tired of

It makes you die and live again

This love that you give me

But the price of a game like that

Is a thousand tears of love

That every night I cry for you

When you leave me and go away

It's over but I would start again

I can never have enough of being with you

This love is a game

That makes me laugh and cry

I don't have useless days anymore

Now I know who to live for

But the price of a game like that

Is a thousand tears of love

That every night I cry for you

When you leave me and you go away

To be with you is never enough

It is over, but I would start again

To be with you is never enough

What are you doing? Are you doing a night concert?

Excuse me, Sergeant, I won't sing anymore.

I promise you, that if I hear you breathing,

I'll let you out of this prison when you have white hair!

Sir, yes sir!

Wait, since no one can hear you, what is the name of that song?

-"The Game," Sergeant. -"The Game."

I'm not playing! Tomorrow I'll make you play!

Tomorrow I'll make you walk 50 km!

Close the window!

Shut off the lights! I'll make you play!

This love is a game

It could have been closer.

-Sammarco, are you awake now? -Silence!

I'm having serious doubts.

Are you sure that this circus is in Italy?

Where is it? How many kilometers do we have to walk?

I think it's a ghost circus.

Guys, is it the Arctic "Circus?" I can't do it anymore.

I'm going back!

-You're done! -Who do I have to tell?

We can tell the sergeants' ancestors.

We are looking for it, but we can't find it!

Where is this circus?

I don't care anymore about it, I want my mother!

Guys, you won't believe it! There it is!

-Mr. Krone. -Yes?

This is fun!

After the clown, we have a special show.

-The whole show is special! -Look over there.

See that soldier on the left? Near the ring.

-Is that Gianni Raimondi? -Yes.

Ladies and gentlemen, in the crowd there is

a wonderful, amazing Italian singer.

-They are talking about you! -No!

How did they recognize me? I am in uniform.

He's wearing a uniform

They recognized you!

We located right away our guest of honor

and we are begging him to sing a song.

Ladies and gentlemen, Gianni Raimondi!

Go!

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

I find myself in front of an audience after more than a year away

and I am very nervous.

I'll sing an old hit that I'm sure the orchestra knows,

"The Accordion."

I hope this club brings me lots of good luck.

The accordion

Tonight will play for you

To remind you of a love

One of so many years ago

The accordion

But you don't cry

You can't erase it like that

It comes back bigger than before

The desire for you

When you lived happily with me

If I close my eyes

I see your face

I see your smile

But our hands are far away

They don't hold each other anymore

The accordion

Tonight is playing for us

And it comes back bigger than ever

The desire for you

The accordion plays for me

Bravo!

It was night

There was the moon

I would kiss your lips

It was the last time

You'd leave me

My love

Guys, sit down. Be quiet!

Behave!

Thank you. Thank you.

-Bravo! Bravo! -Excuse me.

-Thank you. -Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

After this amazing special guest, the show must go on.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have the great honor of presenting

the youngest, the most beautiful, the most amazing talent

on the five continents.

Here she is, the Brazilian amazon, Miss Maria Da Costa!

Gentlemen, relax!

Gentlemen, calm down! Take her right away to the trailer.

Is there a doctor in the audience? Thank you.

-I am a doctor. -Great, go.

Gentlemen, calm down! Nothing happened.

The show will go on.

-How is she? -Nothing serious, just a shock.

They will come to in a minute.

Let's get out, they need to breathe.

Sure, let's let them breathe. Come.

-Give them some air. -Please, Sergeant.

Please take care of my illness.

This girl does a dangerous act.

Yes, tomorrow I'll put up a fence.

If you put up the fence, the public will see that you're afraid.

I'm not afraid, I'll put up the fence to protect the public.

This girl messes up her act every evening.

Instead of jumping on the horse, she jumps on the audience.

Yesterday, she jumped on a guy's head.

So it's not true that she is best in the world.

This is just a show.

She is a horrible horse rider and a horrible driver.

This girl gets in trouble even when she's walking!

-Why don't you fire her? -I can't.

Her father is a millionaire

and after she whined enough, he bought the circus for her.

This way, this circus survives.

An old German proverb says:

"A witty ringmaster is better than a dumb father."

-Has she come to? -Not yet.

Are you leaving them alone?

What happened? Where am I?

On the bed in my trailer, I hit you.

-With your car? -No!

You are the Amazon!

The prettiest, youngest and best horse rider in the world.

It's not true. I saw you and I made you sing.

I have all your records, I always take them with me.

Thank God, his military service is almost over,

so Mr. Gianni will return home and he'll finally hear my poetry.

Lina, I'm starting to get a bit jealous of you.

Of me!

-What's wrong? -Nothing, I just felt dizzy.

-Are you pregnant? -No, Lina, what are you saying?

But tomorrow let's go to the doctor. I don't like how you look.

Lina, you think you know better than me? I am not pregnant.

Congratulations, men, congratulations from the general,

congratulations from all the officers.

Congratulations to you, your families and to your future.

Break file.

Sargent! We salute you.

No regrets, not from us, not from you.

We were just doing our duty.

We ran a lot. We ran so much!

Even that was important.

In life, you will realize that it's all a race.

Now go, you are free citizens.

Sargent, are you sad to see us go?

Well…

Who will you yell at?

The ones who come after you.

They will be here soon.

Good luck and goodbye.

-Congratulations. -Thank you and goodbye.

Thank you again.

Live an honorable life.

Attention! Chest out, head high, stomach in!

I want to see you salute.

Understand? Ready, march!

Still saluting? For how long?

Until tonight. I don't want him to call me back!

-You are here already? -I've been waiting three days for you!

-You've been waiting here? -Yes, here!

-We exchanged addresses. -Everyone is going their own way.

We'll see each other sometime!

-Of course. -Gianni!

-The horse rider! -I have to go, goodbye!

-Goodbye. -Goodbye, Sammarco.

-Goodbye, Gianni. -Goodbye.

Write to me!

-Did you see? -Careful.

I didn't recognize you. I thought I'd never see you again.

-Why are you here? -I knew you were being discharged,

so I came to ask you a favor.

Can I get your autograph on the cover of your records?

Of course.

"To Maria, with affection."

-Shouldn't you be at the circus? -We are leaving this evening.

-I am leaving now. -Do you want me to go with you?

It's safer than a horse.

No, thank you. My wife will be here soon!

-If she sees me here with you? -My wife isn't the jealous type.

She is used to my fans.

Goodbye! I'm happy I saw you again.

Good luck with your job. Goodbye.

-Goodbye, good luck to you. -Thank you.

My song is ready.

We will only need a week to record it.

Carelli, I haven't sung in a year, I might have been forgotten.

-I need to record a song right away. -Yes, of course.

Of course,

but I need time to organize an adequate return.

-My return will be my song. -OK, but more is needed.

-Didn't you like the song? -I didn't say that,

but it's in your best interest to use your old material as well.

Maybe in your interest.

-My songs have sold millions of records. -I know.

But they haven't made me rich because of the contract I signed with you.

My real fortune is my fans.

-Let me have at least that. -Sure.

Good day.

-Are you worried? -No, he liked the song.

I'm not liking my record label so much anymore.

There are a lot of new singers, strange ones, with beards, with necklaces.

They are all made up.

I'm so… I'm so…

-I'm so… -So dirty?

I think that I am out of style. Who knows if people still like me?

Raimondi, with that voice and that song, they should be crazy.

Would you still love me if I ended up poor?

No, I would divorce you.

No, Lina. Coffee.

When two lovers are hugging, no one should ever disturb them.

-Put the coffee there. -Don't worry, Lina.

One spoon of sugar for me.

Did you see? I told you that military life changed him.

-Before he would take two sugars. -I got fat, Lina.

What are you saying? You have the physique of a strong man.

-Lina. -Yes?

-Can you take these papers inside? -Wait, I want to see them.

-They are all mixed up. -A quick look.

-They are mixed up. -They are all mixed up.

-Just a quick look. -You can look at them another time.

-You don't want me to see them? -But…

I want to see them.

Thank you, Lina, you can go.

Damn.

These are the taxes.

And this is the house.

What can we do?

-These are the taxes to pay. -Yes.

-These are the house payments. -Yes.

This is a disaster.

If I have to be honest, we are broke.

But we have the new song.

But if the new song doesn't arrive?

-What do you mean? -Carelli doesn't trust me.

He changes topics, wastes time.

He asked me to sing in horrible places

-And you accepted? -No.

Yes, Laura, I understand. I get it.

I believe there are times

that a company like ours finds its hands tied.

Mr. Carelli, you don't understand or you pretend not to.

Gianni is really upset.

He is discouraged.

After all the money he made you, you should support him.

If you don't want to spend money to record the song,

we'll pay for it.

Calm down, calm down.

OK, we'll record the song. You can even tell him.

-We'll start recording it soon. -Good.

So?

Say hello to Gianni for me.

-Did you hear? -Yes.

If we don't want to risk it, they will pay for the orchestra.

And the millions for printing, the cover, publicity, who will pay?

You promised to.

I promised that we would record the song and we will.

On tape and on tape it will stay!

Hello?

-You didn't eat anything. -I'm not hungry.

Don't do that. Eat something, do it for me.

I recorded the song 15 days ago and it still hasn't been released.

-You need to be patient. -They are playing with me.

Two years ago my albums were in stores as soon as I recorded them.

I need to face the reality that I am washed up as a singer.

Don't say that, it's just difficult because you've been away for so long.

Don't give up. Fight like you are beginning all over again.

How can I? Should I go sing on a street corner?

-In front of a restaurant? -You're so dramatic!

It is dramatic. We owe everyone money.

We are overflowing in debt and taxes.

It's Mr. de Janeiro.

-What? -It's Mr. de Janeiro.

-De Janeiro. -Hello?

Yes, it's me, Gianni Raimondi.

-From Brazil? -From Brazil!

Yes, I hear you. Tell me.

Yes, I'm interested.

How many months? Four?

Yes, of course I accept.

The day after tomorrow? Have you already booked the ticket?

My wife will come as well.

OK, she can come later by plane.

-Can you repeat that, please? -Lina, paper and pencil!

-Mr. Mendoza. -"Mendoza."

Avenida Juan Carral "Ocho?"

"Mendoza." "Ocho" means "eight."

Oh, eight! OK. Good, of course.

-He said, "Hasta la vista!" -Who was it?

It was a businessman who offered me a four-month tour in Brazil.

-Five million in advance! -Five million?

I made this. I hope you like it.

What coincidence! Tomorrow you leave for Brazil

and the radio is playing music from South America.

Are you upset that I'm leaving?

Well, I'm not jumping for joy.

I'm sorry too, Laura. If you want, I can cancel.

What are you saying, Gianni? We need the money.

I could start over again.

Stop it.

It's you

Who wakes me up in the morning

And at night you tell me

That for you

I am everything

You know why?

I would die

For you

For those eyes

I would live one more life

For you

I would win

Also the sun, because

This life that I have

Is for you

Goodbye!

Goodbye!

Goodbye!

-But… -It's me. I'm going home.

-What about the circus? -It's finished.

-Everything is finished. -How come?

Every show I would injure the audience. There was no more room in the infirmary.

-They fired you! -I left before I killed someone.

Aren't you going to miss the horses?

I'll find them in Brazil. I'm leaving now on a cargo ship.

I'm bringing my songs, a four-month tour.

Magnificent! I am sure you will love Brazil.

I can't wait to get there.

Here.

I can't look at that empty seat. Sit down, keep me company!

Of course, madam, thank you. I understand.

Loneliness is ugly and sad. I know.

I remember when my first boyfriend went on a long trip, I was so…

Why do I bother talking? Miss, you are not looking at me.

You're always thinking about your love so far away.

Poor him, all alone on that boat.

He's shy and doesn't know anyone.

He will be so bored.

Ten! Let's see what you can do!

-Stop right there! -Like this?

No, that's not good.

Stop.

Great, let's go.

Miss, I'll carry it. That's what I'm here for.

Miss, what happened?

Be careful with the plates!

Set them down!

No, you sit down!

There's a chair, sit down. Slowly.

-Miss, how do you feel? -My head.

My God!

Madam, wait one moment. Maybe it's…

-I think so. -What a wonderful thing!

How beautiful!

I told you that you were expecting a child.

Tomorrow morning, go and see a gynecologist.

Ocean, nothing but ocean for the last ten days.

Soon you can yell, "Land ahoy," like Christopher Columbus.

My wife will arrive before me on the airplane.

-Your wife is coming to Brazil? -Yes, you will meet her. She's nice.

You will like her and become friends right away.

-You are in love with your wife. -I love her so much.

Let's go.

Ocean, nothing but ocean! It's fantastic, magical!

It isolates you from everything, it helps you forget the world.

-Can I ask you a favor? -Yes.

Can you sing while I look out to the ocean?

Of course.

I only love one woman And I'm not looking for anyone

I only know one woman As sweet as this one

She only thinks what I think

Love is only good when you are loved

Otherwise it is better to say farewell

Than suffer in silence

Being with someone Who doesn't love you anymore

My girl knows that if it has to end

She will find another man

My girl knows that if it has to end

There will be another woman

She always loves me more

Because this way she is sure That she will not lose me

This is why I am with her

I am with her

My girl knows that if it has to end

Another man she will find

My girl knows that if it has to end

There will be another woman

She always loves me more

Because this way she knows That she will never lose me

This is why I am with her

I am with her

I am with her

Thank you.

Yes, you are expecting a child.

-You are five months pregnant. -How is that possible?

It happens. There are exceptions, but it happens.

You need to be watched over throughout the rest of your pregnancy.

It will not be an easy pregnancy.

In two weeks, I have to meet my husband in Brazil.

Unfortunately, you won't be able to go.

The change in climate will be bad for you

and you need to rest and stay calm.

Well, OK, I guess I'll have to stay in Rome.

Good, and don't be tempted to go and visit your husband.

No, I really love my husband,

but our child is more important.

-May I? -Come in. Tell me.

Mr. President, be reasonable!

-Good, I'm glad. -About?

-You have a reason to be able. -No, I don't have reasons.

-What do I care? -I said be reasonable.

-Be reasonable. -Be reasonable! Me!

You said, "Be reasonable!"

It's impossible to leave a big circus in the street.

Do you want to have it in an apartment?

You can't leave the circus.

Did your daughter just have an infatuation about horse riding?

No, Mr. Krone, I'm sorry, you haven't understood anything.

My daughter was never serious about horse riding.

She only knows how to whine! She's young, what can I do?

She wanted a circus and I gave it to her.

She doesn't want it anymore? I closed it.

There're 200 performers and 200 animals.

And they are hungry. What should I feed them?

You open up the cages and free the animals.

Either the animals eat the artists or the artists eat the animals.

Those that survive we can send to the zoo.

This is only a little snack.

He's as nasty as Nero! You have a cruel heart!

OK, to make you happy, I'll have a heart transplant!

Mr. Krone, you can't make millions with a good heart!

And I've made a lot, my dear!

Do you know what I did when I first arrived in Brazil?

Shined shoes.

I was on my knees with the little brush and a rag.

I shined, shined, shined.

-Could you shine without spitting? -I always faked spitting.

-But I feel all wet. -It just came out, I'm sorry.

You talk about heart with me? Come on!

My daughter's whining gave food to a lot of people.

Now they can't eat, what can you do? That's life.

It's a sour life, especially for me.

I'm unemployed, nobody wants a ringmaster

and I can't eat.

Mr. Krone, stop or you'll make me cry.

-It's a touching story. -I don't cry because it's touching,

I cry out of anger and I spit in your face!

My friend, you don't care about the circus.

-You only care about yourself. -Yes, even I am a son of God.

No, you are a son of a…

-You are a son of the Reich! -Exactly!

Do you want a uniform? Do you want a beret? I'll give it to you.

-What uniform? Beret? -Commandant would suit you?

Commandant?

Yes, you can be part of my army, dear Mr. Krone,

I give work to an army of people!

You have a big heart. I hope the Virgin Mary brings you fortune.

What did you say?

You have a big heart and I hope Virgin Mary brings you fortune.

No, don't mince words, you were speaking in another language.

The dialect from Milan.

Well, I speak that dialect.

When my grandfather was a soldier,

he went to Milan and met a girl. It wasn't my fault.

-It wasn't his fault either. -Mr Krone, take off your mask!

OK.

-Even the mustache! -My name is Luigi Brambilla.

I was born in Milan on June 21st 1928 in Corso Garibaldi.

I worked at Breda, but I was fired.

Why?

Well, I have a back problem.

To survive I did a lot of things.

I was a Dutchman.

I was a fakir who sits on nails. That hurt a lot!

You got skinnier? Because the nails popped your spare tire!

Well, I passed some air! I even worked in the circus.

Great. Great.

Mr. President, I'm happy that you figured me out.

-Why? -I'll stop pretending to be German!

It's difficult to be a German for four hours a day, always saying…

By the end of the day I'd have a sore throat.

-Finally I can speak normally! -No, my dear.

I understand your German better, so keep speaking it.

-What? -Keep speaking German.

You tricked me for a whole year! I tricked half of Brazil!

-I didn't trick you. -How does that make me look?

Mr. Krone, if you want to continue to work for me,

you have to continue being German for the rest of your life!

-Oh, Lord! -Woe to you if they find out the truth!

Mr. Krone, I'll make you starve to death!

Can I be German without the mustache?

-No! -Like I never asked!

Mr. Raimondi? Mr. Raimondi?

-Mr. Raimondi? -What is it?

-We have arrived in Rio. -Rio? When did we arrive?

A little while ago. Passengers have got off.

I didn't hear the announcement. Help me pack my bags.

-Of course. -Get the stuff out of the closet.

Good morning.

-Good morning, I am Gianni Raimondi. -We have been waiting for you.

-Did you have a nice trip? -Wonderful.

We have reserved apartment 234, it's very comfortable.

-There's a telegram for you. -Are you Mr. Raimondi?

I am Roberto Mendoza, director of Rio Music.

-My pleasure. -Mine, too.

We spoke on the telephone when I called you in Rome.

-It was you? -Please, read this.

First, the telegram.

My wife is telling me about her arrival.

You're upset.

-She canceled the trip. -I'm sorry.

I'm here to welcome you on behalf of our president

and make myself available for whatever you need.

Thank you, that's very kind.

As soon as you are rested the president would like to see you.

-I have rested too much. -Sure?

-Can we go right away then? -As you wish.

Please, this way.

You will meet an exceptional man, the best in the world!

Here is the start of the president's small businesses.

There are a lot,

and that's not counting the big businesses he has in all of Brazil.

What other businesses does the president have?

I don't know, no one knows.

He has construction, a newspaper chain,

then there's his shipping fleet, his airplane factory,

an arms factory, canned food,

a railway from north to south

and a cheese factory.

It's Caballeros provolone.

-It's a horse factory? -No, a cheese factory.

-Cheese. -It's really good!

The president has a lot to do to say the least!

No, I do everything, he is just the brains!

He's got a really big head!

The administration offices of the big businesses.

Here are the offices for his airplanes and shipping.

Here is the press and the newspapers.

These are the offices of the paper factories.

-He has all of Rio! -Yes, and he is the brains.

I am the force.

-You did it all, Mr. Mendoza? -Yes.

I organized everything, but he is the boss.

Here is the famous canned food,

and from this building, food in pill form is produced.

Here we make flexible toothpicks,

that are made in Brazilian aged wood.

He owns 120 skyscrapers.

He has a grater factory.

And also a factory of slushies. He does everything.

Here we go.

I want to see what you do next.

"What you do next." And then?

Repeat.

"Dear Pasquale, I moved the bishop

from 21 to 29."

"I want to see what you do next,

seeing as you say you are so good."

I'll be waiting for your telegram. Best regards, etcetera.

-The address? -Again? It's the same.

Pasquale Pezzuto, Vicolo Scassacocchio 22,

Naples, Italy.

-Isn't Naples in Italy? -Yes.

-You don't say so. -And…

-It's your tic. -And the code?

The Penal Code is the problem!

Sooner or later, I'm going to smash your head in!

It's my fault, with all these normal people around me!

-Excuse me. -You talk like a sheep!

Look who's here! Raimondi! Come here.

Sit down. What a pleasure!

-I am happy you recognized me. -How could I not recognize you?

-I have pictures of you all over my house! I-'m flattered that you are a fan.

No, I am not your fan.

-I don't like soft music or their singers. -Do you have a record label?

What does that mean? I have a contract for trash collection,

but it doesn't mean that I roll around in the garbage!

You have a curious way of saying things, Mister….

Da Costa, José Da Costa. It means "Giuseppe Da Costa."

-Strange, though. -You don't like my name?

Tell me now, and I'll change it right away.

No, I met a girl named Maria Da Costa.

Really? Is it her?

-Hello, Gianni. -Maria!

Hello, my dear. She is my daughter. She is your fan.

I left the circus to dedicate my time to the record label.

So you had him hire me.

If there's something wrong with your contract, come see me.

I don't have anything to do with it!

Good.

-When do I start singing? -When does he start singing?

In a few days. I am organizing a tour.

-We can show him around. -She will show you around!

You don't know her!

I am Giuseppe Da Costa, or José, I am the father.

And this naughty girl. How can I say it?

She has tricked me!

You aren't from Naples, you can't understand.

She has tricked me the way that she wanted.

Has your wife arrived yet?

No, she had to postpone the trip. She doesn't know when she can come.

So you are married?

-Yes. -How many children do you have?

-None. -That's not good, my son!

Everyone needs children! Even if they're naughty like mine.

You are free from family duties. I'll take you around Brazil.

-Aren't we offering Gianni anything? -Goodbye.

-Wait a moment. -Goodbye, President.

-Don't get any fines. -OK, Dad.

This sport is difficult.

Even you can learn. You will become a champion.

I don't think I will be able to.

Swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

I swear.

-You knew I would be on that ship? -Yes.

-You wanted to travel with me? -Yes.

-Why? -Why?

You figure it out!

Gianni. Gianni!

Today we are alone for the first time.

You are right. It also seems to me that no one is around.

No one?

I was just saying

that I'm alone in my thoughts, alone with myself.

I am starting to care for you.

Just care?

Care is a very important word.

It means many things.

Let's go.

Maria, this morning your father gave me a check.

But I haven't started working, I haven't even sung, it's not right.

Don't worry, Gianni, it's just an advance on the contract.

Shall we go?

That is Sugarloaf Mountain, where we were yesterday.

I never worry about the money I spend

I'll get more

Lots more

But I cry for the love of the only woman

That I don't have

Maybe anymore

Light up this sun that is extinguished

Love, you know, melts hearts of ice

What will be of me

If I lose you too?

If I lose you too?

Life isn't staying alive for 100 years

If you have never loved

Love isn't being with a woman

It needs more

Much more

Light up this sun that is extinguished

The life of a man is In the hands of a woman

And you are that woman

What will be of me

If I lose you as well?

If I lose you?

Hello?

Hello? Yes?

Yes! Gianni!

Yes, Gianni! No, I'm fine.

I am awake. It is morning here.

I am about to go to bed.

Drop everything and get your first airplane to Rio.

-I need you. -You must be patient.

What happened?

Lina has got mumps

and I cannot leave her alone. She has a high fever.

-I can't be alone anymore. -I will come as soon as I can.

-All right, honey. -My love, bye.

Excuse me.

Couldn't you find another excuse? Did I have to have mumps?

-Good morning, Mr. President. -Good morning, Mendoza. Any news?

-How nice. -Do you like it?

-It's a wonderful curtain. -This is a robe!

-I got it in Bahia. -Is it a robe?

-You would need a black belt. -I don't do Judo. Shut up.

-To change the colors. -You don't understand.

Hello? Yes, Da Costa.

One moment. 1,000 stocks of a diamond mine.

Diamond, diamonds, always diamonds!

Buy those and that's it.

Yes, all right. Buy them.

-President, do you mind? -Yes, of course.

-Don't lie down. -Why not?

-You look like a mattress. -And you like an ice cream man!

How dare you talk to me like that!

Mind your own business.

Hello? He is too busy. One moment, please.

-Two Chinese submarines. -With or without border fees?

I don't know, I will ask. Who will pay border fees?

Fine. There is only a fee to get in.

All right, buy it. But without the Chinese crew. Got it?

Yes, buy it. But without the Chinese crew.

What? One moment. Not even the cook?

I don't want a cook!

Without a Chinese cook. Chinese food is gross.

Without the Chinese cook. We don't want him.

Hello? No, he is in a meeting.

No, wait a minute.

Mr. President. Mr. President!

-Mr. President! -The cord is between my legs!

No, thank you. No suit and tie, I am relaxing.

There are eight Raphael paintings and two statues of Michelangelo.

Can't I not even relax here?

No, we will talk about it tomorrow when I get back from Bogota.

Hello? Hello?

Tell Raphael and Michelangelo that we are going to Bogota.

No, I'm going to Bogota.

-Am I not coming? -No, not you.

-Why? -No!

Commandant Krone at your service.

I am sorry, I fell.

What have you done? What is this uniform?

This is a uniform that I made up at my expense.

Your uniform is too tight and too ridiculous.

Why, isn't this ridiculous?

Give me a break! You look like a Neapolitan character!

-Do I look like Napoleon? -Yes, Garibaldi!

Garibaldi had a beard!

You look like a Neapolitan character, a street comedian.

I look like a street comedian? Thank you for the compliment!

It isn't a compliment. What is this nonsense?

Look at all these things!

An anchor, an eagle, a locomotive! What are these for?

I am the general of your private aviation,

the captain of your ships

and the station master of your railway.

Are you also a station master?

Well, since you are at that, be the surveillance for my garage.

I will place a car on my other arm.

Good. Now can you tell me why you came here?

Your airplane is ready to leave for Bogota.

No, I am sorry. I am postponing my departure

because I want to relax a bit.

Aren't you leaving?

I also came here for a personal reason.

All right, speak.

Can we talk alone? It's a delicate matter. Without Mendoza.

Mendoza, did you hear? Please, leave us alone.

-As you wish. -Mendoza!

German man. There is no one here!

-I didn't say a bad word. -I don't want filters between us.

Yes, Mendoza left.

If you keep your glasses on, there will be a filter between us!

How funny!

-Mr. President. -Hey!

-Does the mustache bother you? -No, the breath bothers me.

President, I…

No, speak German or Mendoza will find out.

There is no one here.

-Tell me. -Mr. President…

I am your general, but I have the salary of a corporal.

-Do you want a raise? -I would like a general's salary.

-It is impossible. -Why?

I will strip you and send you back to Milan.

Forget it then, I will keep getting the salary of a corporal.

-I fell a second time. -I saw it.

-Excuse me if I dare. -What?

I have doubts about him.

-Did you see something? -No, but he doesn't look German.

-He must be a half breed. -How can you say that?

-I suppose. -What do you do?

-I suppose. -And I will kick you out!

I don't pay you to suppose! That is a real German man.

He is a pure breed German. Don't you see his mustache?

-He's Hitler's cousin. -If you say so.

What is wrong, Gianni?

I signed a contract.

I have been here more than a month,

I am making money and I still haven't seen a theater.

I didn't come here to be a tourist. I must sing. I need to sing.

You will sing, I promise, and everything will change.

It will change

This wind that is against you

And that makes you tear up

One day or another, sooner or later It will change

It blows hard You will see, it will go away

The sadness that sleeps with you

Will go away

Close your eyes and blow hard

Make a fist and blow hard

It will change, you will see

And the wind will change

It will change

This wind that blows against you

And that makes you tear up

Sooner or later, it will change

Close your eyes and blow hard

Make a fist and blow hard

It will change, you will see

And the wind will change

It will change

That wind that is blowing against you

And that makes you tear up

Sooner or later

It will change

No, I bought the Rio de Janeiro TV station.

Did the manager tell you?

I make the TV shows and you broadcast what I want!

Or I will cut all your channels!

I will make all your channels go black!

Very well. Let's see if they let me work.

Damn!

I will put the four here.

Four, five, six. Good!

Before presenting tonight's guest to you, I will sing a song.

I was running to you as fast as the wind

The street would disappear In front of my eyes

Why do you need to keep on flying

Always keep on flying

When love doesn't wait for you anymore?

I saw you in the mirror You were as beautiful as before

You looked like The queen of sunset and sunrise

Why do you need to keep on flying

Always keep on flying

When love doesn't wait for you anymore?

But deep down in every man There is always hope

This is why I kept running towards you

I wanted to believe in a miracle

I wanted to believe in a miracle

Why do you need to keep on flying

Always keep on flying

When love doesn't wait for you anymore?

I was slowly coming back after seeing you

The route coming back was as long as ever

Why do you need to keep on flying

Always keep on flying

When your love doesn't want you anymore?

As fast as the wind I was running to you

Crying like a baby, I was going back home

Why keep on flying

Always keep on flying

When my love doesn't want me anymore?

Why keep flying?

Why keep flying?

When us Brazilians visit a country,

we are treated very well, as if we were home.

We are happy when we can give it back.

I am talking about Italy.

There is a great artist here today.

Gianni Raimondi!

I said that we are happy to have such a good singer like you

coming from a country that treated me so well.

Our country, my country, is your home.

-Thank you. -You are welcome, dear friend.

-Sing for us. -I will do my best.

Are you ready?

Ladies and gentlemen, I will sing a song from my repertoire.

It's called "A World of Love."

There is a big green field

Where hopes are born

They are called kids

That is a big field of love

One, don't ever betray them

They trust you

Two, don't you delude them

They believe in you

Three, don't make them cry

They live for you

Four, don't you abandon them

You will miss them

When your hands are tired And you drop everything

Wonderful, what a voice!

This kid has got such a voice.

And he is also funny!

And has good manners! I like him!

I like him as a singer.

Don't you like him as a man?

What do you want to know?

Just saying!

You have her in your eyes She will ask for love

But love has its commandments

One, don't betray her, she trusts you

Two, don't delude her She believes in you

Three, don't make her cry She lives for you

Four, don't abandon her

You will miss her

And at night, in your arms She will look for

Every promise

Every hope

For a world of love

Good, really good!

Maria, tell me the truth.

Don't you like this young man?

-Tell me. -Yes, Dad, I love him.

I knew it!

You did so many crazy things!

I want to know something else, is it true love?

Or is it just a fling, as usual?

-Yes, this time I am in love. -Good, I'm happy for you.

-Does he love you back? -Yes, but he is married.

And are you worried about this?

Nowadays wives aren't real anymore.

They get dumped, they get taken back.

Marriage isn't a serious thing anymore.

They get married in Rome and divorce in Acapulco.

It's fantastic!

-It's the garden of wonders! -Someone…

…called it Eden, heaven on earth.

-It must've been like that. -We are Adam and Eve.

More is better!

-Dad! -Who is it? It's you.

-Were you scared? -No.

-Are you alone? -What are you doing in the kitchen?

-I am cooking. -Aren't the cooks working?

Today is Thursday, it's their day off.

So I am making myself a plate of spaghetti.

Garlic, oil, tomato sauce, parsley, olives and capers.

Olives and capers.

Hooray for Italy and Italian tomato sauce.

I know that you don't like these things.

I can't take it anymore.

I have been eating just beans and shrimps for 30 years.

I can't take it anymore! I can never eat mackerel.

-You're offending your wealth. -No, I'm not offending anyone.

How could I ever offend my wealth if it brings me millions?

And millions bring me wellness.

And who will bring me some spaghetti?

I had to make it. No one brings it to me.

Try it. I want you to try this sauce.

No, I want to tell you something important.

What happened? Gianni doesn't love you back?

-On the contrary. -Try it then.

-No! -Why are you making that face?

His wife may be here any minute.

-And we will stop her. Try it. -No.

-I will stop her. -How?

You aren't my daughter anymore. You are scaring me.

You don't know how to fight. You know what to do in these cases?

You write a letter. "Dear Madam,

your husband and I are in love."

"Do you want to make a scandal? A scene? A tragedy?"

"If you get out of our lives without making a protest,

we will offer you 100, 200, even 300 million."

"Thank you and take care."

Do you think that she will renounce her husband so easily?

300 million is nothing to you?

My dear, remember that marriage is like a job

that can be resolved with a severance pay.

-I can't write to her. -Don't worry.

I'll write the letter and have the secretary sign it.

Now, let me taste the sauce that dad made.

How is it?

I knew it! I should've been a cook. Instead I'm a millionaire!

Hello?

Yes, I called.

You have a phone call from Rome. You can take it over there.

Excuse me, Maria.

-Hello? -Gianni! Is it you?

-Yes, it's me. How are you? -Fine, dear.

I sang on TV and it was a big success.

I was supposed to sing one song and I sang three!

Great. Hang on, you have to hear something.

Without you, without me

That is my song!

Yes, love!

It's a big hit!

-In two days, it sold over 100,000 copies! -What?

100,000! Hang on.

100,000 copies in two days.

I'm so happy!

I feel as if this was my first song, believe me!

I'm really happy because from now on we will need a lot of money.

Why, do we have more debt?

No, soon there will be more than two of us.

-We will be three. -What?

Yes, love, we are expecting a child.

A child!

Say it again. A child. How is it possible?

So don't move, stay in bed, have Lina do everything.

Relax, don't do anything!

Don't worry, Lina doesn't let me do anything.

You worry about your job. We'll worry about the child.

In a few days I will be done here in Rio and I'll hurry home.

Bye, love, see you soon. Bye.

Maria!

I'm expecting a child. Not me, my wife.

-Congratulations. -It's wonderful.

I want to hug the whole world, and scream, and run, and sing!

Let's make a toast.

No, this joy is only yours. You shouldn't share it.

And I'm the last person you should be sharing it with.

-Excuse me. -No.

I was wrong. Congratulations, Gianni.

Also for your wife.

Bartender.

-Do you speak Italian? -Yes, sir.

-How much champagne to get drunk? -Depends on the person.

If you're used to it.

-I don't drink at all. -Then all you need is one glass!

-I'll take two bottles. -Yes, sir.

No, dear Edoardo, don't forget the cap or you'll ruin the flavor.

-Yes, sir. -Thank you. Go.

Miss Maria, what happened?

-Dad! -Maria!

-You are crying! -Did you send that letter?

Yes, they should have received it by now.

-What have we done, Dad? -You asked him and he didn't agree?

-No, he doesn't know anything. -And so?

-He's expecting a child. -A child?

No.

No! When there's a child involved,

the marriage is no longer a job that can be resolved with a severance pay.

Dad, when he found out, he was so happy.

And the letter…

-It's my fault. -It's not your fault, it's my fault.

I was wrong. With you, with myself…

I believed that money was everything and I made you believe that too!

I ate bread and tears.

I would give my life to not see you cry.

Instead…

I am happy to see you crying for the pain of others.

Not for the love that I thought I could buy for you.

Lina!

Guys, now I'll jump in!

Mr. Raimondi!

Mr. Raimondi!

A phone call for you. It's from Rome.

It's urgent, from Rome.

Thank you.

It's Gianni!

No!

No, it's not possible!

OK, I'll leave right away!

-The first flight to Italy. -Good.

-When does it leave? -For Rome at 11:15.

I can't wait, my wife is very sick.

-I can't wait! -Gianni, don't cry.

-I have to go! -Don't worry.

You can leave on my personal jet. You'll be home by this evening.

Be strong, my boy. Everything will be fine.

I can guarantee you this.

Let's go, we don't have time to waste.

-One moment. -Mendoza, let's go!

If she calls back, tell her that I left.

One moment, we are coming!

Hurry up, go faster!

Honk the horn!

Child.

Child.

Save the child.

Are you Mr. Raimondi? That's the doctor.

As my assistant told you…

It's either the mother or the child.

The mother! My wife, I want Laura!

Come! Hurry up!

Poor girl!

She said, "My baby! I don't care about me!"

"Save my child!"

My poor girl!

Take it away! I don't want to see it! Take it away! I don't want to see it!

Go see the child and then go and see the mother.

But only for a few minutes, we can't tire her out.

Sometimes miracles happen.

If my heart keeps wishing

It will not just be a dream

I count in my diary

The nights and the days

That take you away from me

The clock

Is already ticking three o'clock

Without you, without me

What can I do

If I can't sleep?

I can cry

And I feel on my pillow

My heart beating

And desperately looking for you

But if my heart keeps wishing

It will not just be a dream

I count in my diary

The nights and the days

That keep you away

I already write

Poems about you

About you without me

I will spend

My nights like that

Without crying

When a river overflows

It sweeps away the good and bad

But it goes back to its bed And you with me

But if my heart keeps wishing

It will not just be a dream

I count in my diary

The nights and the days

But if my heart keeps wishing

It will not just be a dream

I count in my diary

The nights and the days

THE END
