All language subtitles for The Rogues (I picari) (1987) IT WEB 1080p

We are rogues,

more than anything we are free.

We are like gypsies not very stable,
birds between branches,

mice in the furniture,
we are nomads.

With our limits,

killed by debts.

We are different from the others,
we are the best at impossible dreams,

we are rogues.

We talk to the moon like dogs,

listen to us.

We are poor blind people,
we sell dreams.

Listen, listen, listen.

Give us more.

We are rogues,

repressed and lunatics.

Invisible ghosts of erratic worlds.

We would give an eye
for a little bit of luck.

Listen.

Life is a toy, a well, a moon.

Listen, listen, listen.

Give us more.

To steal.

To eat.

To sleep.

Sometimes love.

We are rogues,

more than everything we are free,

we are like gypsies, not very stable
birds between branches,

mice in the furniture,
we are nomads.

We are rogues.

My mother would break
her back for us.

And she worked as a whore.

Calm down.

So, my father was a pimp

since he didn’t have another job.

Is it enough?

He was a faithful husband and
my mother’s job didn’t bother him.

Actually, he tried to help her
as much as he could.

Come!

- What will you give us to eat?
- Kids, be good.

Come close to me.

My father gave us lots of attention

and only a few of us
were his children.

Carlos Blanco was so blond
that he looked albino.

Carlos Nigro
was more black than cocoa.

Teresita was hazelnut color,
of the Saracen type.

Manuel was curly and red headed.

Alfonsino was curly and brown headed.

There was Paquito too,
but I don’t remember him.

- You were the oldest?
- No, Pedro was before me,

but my parents gave him to
a horse keeper who was passing by.

We were poor,
we had no food and no shoes.

I remember that one day a customer
left behind a pair of clogs

and we argued over them.

Be good!

Kids!

- Stop!
- Be good!

Where are the clogs? Be good.

Look at them good.

These clogs will go
to the first one of you

who will go around the world
like Pedro.

- Did you get the clogs?
- Yes, not long after,

when a blind beggar came to the house,
may God delete his name.

- Does Lady Petita live here?
- She’s my wife, can we help you?

Yes.

I don’t know how I got here
without my dog, it ran away!

- Lady Petita?
- Petita.

- Let him see you.
- I can’t see.

I asked around,

everyone says you are
kind and generous people,

that never refuse to help the needy.

Sorry, whoever sent you,
tricked you.

We can’t give you any food or money.

I know, charity isn’t only given
with food and money.

There is also charity of feelings,
charity of the senses.

You must help the sick.

Give drink to the thirsty.
Give food to the hungry.

And satisfaction to who
asks for love.

Petita doesn’t have food or money,
but she has a lot of love

and she can donate it
to whomever knocks on her door.

- I don’t understand.
- You don’t understand?

He wants mom to do it for free.

- Shut up.
- No.

The voice of the innocent
is the voice of a wiseman.

You are a man of the world, you
know the art of asking and getting.

- We will give you what you want.
- Let’s thank the Lord.

- Petita, get ready.
- Where should I go?

In return, you must take

my son, and teach him about life.

The kid who just spoke?

He’s skinny, but tough.

He has healthy teeth
and is very smart.

He will be good.

Not more than
that bastard dog of mine!

He is also a bastard.

Where is he?

I’ll get him.

The experience he will get
from traveling the world with me

is worth more than
a mountain of gold coins.

I hope Lady Petita
will know how to repay me.

Where is the bed?

This way.

Careful.

Lazarillo, I know I will never
see you again, try to be good.

May God guide you
for the rest of your life.

We raised you the best that we could.

We have entrusted you
to a good master.

Goodbye, little boy.

From today you must carry
on with only your strength.

- Treat him well and watch over him.
- He’s in good hands.

Go, my son,
you will do a lot in life.

If he intended the thousand miles
I walked under the sun and the rain,

almost always chased
by thugs and angry husbands,

- he was a great prophet.
- Your master was good?

The worst that one could have,
may his name be deleted.

He was sneaky like no other,
greedy, cruel and miserable.

I found out as soon as
we left Salamanca.

We arrived to the bridge
outside the city.

On the entrance there is
a sculpture that looks like a bull.

This is a stone bull, right?

Yes, it’s a bull.

- You know it’s a miraculous stone?
- No, I don’t know that.

I know and I will prove it.
Take me to the statue.

- It’s a statue...
- Mind your steps.

You should tell me ahead,
or what a guide are you?

Come, come closer.

Place your ear
next to the bull’s mouth.

You will hear a big sound
of cymbals and noisemakers!

Do as I say.

Where are you? Place
your head close to the bull’s mouth.

Good. Can you hear the cymbals?

Learn, you silly! The kid of
a blind man must know every trick!

Do you believe everything they say?
I must teach you to live.

Where is the stick?

From now on,
you will be less naïve!

Give me your shoulder.

Remember: "mors tua, vita mea".

- What does that mean?
- I don’t know but it feels right.

Somehow that blind man,
may his name be deleted,

became a precious guide
in my existence.

Here in Avila people are richer,

but they aren't charitable.

Stop, look for a place
where I can concentrate.

Being skillful
you can make some money

because it’s more easy to get
something from a rich stingy man

than from someone who is broke.

Sit here.

You will use the signals I taught you
only for the rich people.

- All right.
- Make me hear them.

An official, two short whistles.

- Yes.
- Pregnant woman, an alarm sound.

- Then...
- Damsel.

An admired whistle.

Languid!

- Monsignor, two short whistles.
- No!

- Monsignor!
- A long one and a...

- a short one.
- Go!

Do it again!

You must study! You don’t deserve it,
but I will be generous today.

Open your mouth.
Look at these nice crusts!

It’s almost all cheese.

May the Holy Ghost save you
from a horrible death, brothers!

Remember that you all have to die!

Those who gave
will have a peaceful rest

and those who didn’t
will end up in the flames of hell!

The Lord will give you peace,
happiness and money

so that you can share them
with this poor blind man.

A lucky mother, your child
will have a wonderful future!

I bow to a Saint,
a prince a future hero!

You are blind and a foreigner, how do
you know that she is pregnant?

I am a soothsayer,
the Lord gave me this gift.

Woman, your son will be
a great person and I bow at him.

One day you will tell him about
my prophecy and you will tell him

that a poor blind man saved you
from the risk of a difficult labor.

Here, make a tea and drink it
when you have the first pains

I will pray for you. Here,
for the sacred souls of purgatory.

Thank you madam, also from them.

Kindness makes flowers grow.

Can you guess who I am?

You are a damsel,

that is trying to fool
this poor blind man

without even giving him
a small handout.

- Forgive me.
- You are trying to tempt me!

I forgive you!

Make louder signals,
I can’t hear you!

For you I have a miraculous cream,
you will feel like you are in heaven!

Here, take these, you will
need them for your love battles.

Put it on and it will be
hard and victorious!

- How dare you, imposter!
- What?

- I will report you to the police!
- Forgive me!

Soldiers! Guards!

You will pay for your insolence
with 20 lashes!

- No!
- Take him away!

I beg you!
I am a poor blind man, have mercy!

- Impostor!
- Forgive me! Do this for me!

Where are you?
Take me to that idiot!

I didn’t do it on purpose!

You whistled the wrong sound
to get rid of him, right?

No, I was too young to be alone.

Brothers of misfortune,
give something to this brother.

He is crippled and blind.

I started doing the talking
just like he used to do

and I started to study
how to earn something out of it.

It wasn’t easy because that man,
may his name be deleted,

was smarter than the devil.

Those who give will be rewarded

but those who do not give
will end up in the flames of hell.

- For the soul of my wife.
- May God take her to heaven...

- I didn’t hear the sound.
- What sound?

The sound of the coin
when it goes in!

- Where did you put it?
- You are crazy!

Where did you hide it? Give it to me!

- I didn’t do anything!
- Where did you put it? You criminal!

Talk or I will choke you!

Now I heard it.

- How long did you stay with him?
- More than a year.

One time I couldn’t handle it anymore
and I took a good chance.

Where are you taking me?

- What do you see?
- A house and then a ditch.

Don’t you see a bridge or a passage?
Look carefully.

Maybe there is one 3 miles ahead,
if you want...

3 miles?

Is the house abandoned?

Smoke comes out of the chimney,
they are cooking.

Bloody hell!

How big is the ditch?

It is not so big, one step maybe two.

Do you want to feel it?

Pull. Pull!

- Is it deep?
- No, it’s just 8 or 10 spans.

It’s not much.

Here.

Give me the sack, you’ll be lighter.

Right. See? Being with me
you learned something!

- Is this the smallest part?
- I’ll put you in the right direction.

Good.

- As long as you can!
- I will get a running start.

Go!

Damn kid!

With just one jump,
he deleted his name and himself.

So my free life started.

After him,
I never had another master.

You gave him the end he deserved.

It is also true that if you did not
meet a teacher like him,

- who knows how you’d end up.
- How was I supposed to end up?

Worse than that it seems difficult!

- Life is a toy, my dear!
- You call it a toy?

Come on, slacker!
Row and don't talk!

The first few days is a bit tough,

then you get smart
and you learn to make do.

Good teachings!

How long have you been here?

For almost a year and a half.

- I still have seven years to go.
- Me, nine! Are they few?

What have you done?

I stabbed a man

who took my place
in front of the church.

Good boy!

- And you?
- Gambling matters.

- What do you mean?
- Gambling, cards, dice...

Row!

Begging wasn't my thing,

in life I have not known
neither hunger nor misery.

I was an only child
and my father earned good money,

with trades that required fantasy,
imagination, finesse and precision.

My father’ s front
was as a watchmaker,

but his real trade was crook
and cheater, with cards and dice.

Come.

Look.

11.

It's your turn.

Two.

Son, a cheater's trade is
neither common nor vulgar, is an art.

In the art of the dice
the roll is important.

Unfortunately,
in a disagreement over a game,

he was forced to use a knife
and was sentenced to death.

He got on the donkey
without stepping into the stirrup.

He was straight and smiling
as if he were going to a party.

What a show!

Get it fixed,
someone could get hurt.

The gates of heaven are open
for everyone. Remember that...

Father, a blessing is enough for me,
I don't want to be too long.

As they put the noose on him,
he looked at me.

He smiled one last time at me.

He fell straight down,
without kicking like everyone does.

With his feet together, like a stick.

He was supposed to hang there
for two days

and then be cut into four pieces
to be put at the gates of the city.

As soon as night fell,

I went to take my inheritance.

I was to go around the world as well,
but there was a priest.

They always get
in the way of everything!

He took me to a noble family

who lived in a mansion with
a hundred rooms! They were three.

Marquis, marquise and little marquis.

He was fat, all powdered
and he had three names.

He could go well
as a pedagogical assistant

for our Pablo Alfonso Ignazio.

What does our tutor think?

He seems sturdy and resistant to me.

He is a healthy boy,
he will not disappoint you.

You are lucky.

All right, but "pedagogical assistant"
what does it mean?

Well, let's see, let's see...

Yes, the French troops.

Where they defeated the brave
Aragonese and Catalan cavalry,

little marquis Pablo Alfonso Ignazio?

- Here.
- Beast!

"Pedagogical assistant" meant

that since the tutor
couldn't beat his pupil,

I took the blows
that the fool deserved.

Be careful.

In what year? In one thousand...

- 1187!
- No! 1112.

Marquis Pablo Alfonso Ignazio,

you got all dirty.

Go to bed without dinner!

Actually, this way,
Pablo Alfonso Ignazio suffers more

than if the punishments
were inflicted on himself.

He has a sensitive and delicate soul.

Then, Mr. Marquis, repeat.

The four evangelists
are Matthew, Luke, John

and?

- Herod.
- Go!

He was not a sensitive soul, that
son of a bitch was wrong on purpose.

I lasted three days.

Dip.

- You dirty kid!
- Pay more attention!

- Stop!
- Lick it all!

- Let go of him!
- Go to hell!

You need everything in this world,

I learned some history,
geography, grammar,

which can always be useful in life.

They are needed
to end up chained to oars!

- Life is a toy!
- Shut up! Stop talking!

Row!

This oar is heavy!

You'll get calluses.

- My hands burn.
- Spit on them.

Work, you lazy men!

- My hands are burning!
- Cool off with this!

What are you laughing at?

I told you
that you'll get calluses.

- Thanks, friend!
- Row!

There is a pirate ship!
Row, otherwise they will board us!

- We are lucky!
- Row!

Drummer, faster!

Come on, you dogs!

Move!

Come on, row!

Hey you, stop.

- The pirates are here!
- Shut up and do what I say.

Row or I will kill you!

I will whip you!

Why?

Don’t you understand that if
the pirates get us we will be free?

Look what a hole!

Free us! Help!

Free us from the chains!

Hurry!

- Hurry with those ropes!
- Pull harder!

Hurry up!

Hurry!

Can you do this?

We need to tilt it more,
half the hole is underwater.

Come on!
Call the convicts on deck!

Out! Everyone out!

Out! Everyone to that side!

- Come on!
- Quickly!

- Out!
- Walk, come out.

- Why do you pull?
- I pull because you don't move!

- Who did it?
- Maybe it was hooked wrong.

No, I want to know
who it was of the two of them.

- Was it you?
- Me? Him!

Me? It was him!

You saved my life
risking your own?

The Lord has sent you.
What is your name?

Guzman de Alfarache.

Me too, Captain!
My name is Lazarillo de Tormes.

The Lord has sent me here
to save your life,

together with
this valiant friend of mine.

- Shut up!
- He's a son of a bitch!

All right! Release them!

From this moment you are free,
you will be at my service.

At your orders, Captain.

Captain, lift your foot.

Do not move your toes.

No, an ace.

A mussel.

- Where were you?
- Always here.

What are you doing?

Captain, I'm attaching
some nice frogs.

- Do you like them?
- What are you doing with a seagull?

I'm making a nice fan for you.

- Do you like it?
- Continue.

Mind the ladder.

For those who are below,
it's rec time.

Come on out,
rec time is over soon!

- Go take a shit.
- What do you want?

Take a shit, it's better.

- Go take a shit.
- Why do you say that?

Go, it's better.

- I'll go take a shit.
- Go.

Sit down.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

You are new
and you don't know the rules.

Those who don't follow them...

- What rules?
- There's only one rule.

Me and my friends
are in charge here.

- All right.
- Shut up.

- I said it's fine.
- Shut up.

Tomorrow night, on the third shift.
Everyone is in.

You steal the key to the long chain
that binds us to the benches.

Your friend will do the same
with the key of the Santa Barbara,

where the spare weapons are.

The key is attached to the nail of
the compass in the captain's cabin.

Tomorrow at this time,
you will bring me the keys.

We'll take care of the rest.

- What's wrong?
- Nothing, I'm losing it!

- Are you afraid?
- No, the handle!

- I'm falling into the sea!
- You're a coward, go away.

- Don't play games, otherwise...
- Yes, I understand.

You said that the key to Saint
Barbara is attached to the nail...

I get it, I'll remember.

Guzman.

- So?
- We're free, mutiny.

Everything is ready
and everyone agrees.

You get the key to the Santa Barbara
and I'll get the key to the chain.

Do you understand?
Just play it cool, smile.

It's a perfect plan. Do as I say
and I'll get you out of here.

- When?
- Tomorrow night, third shift.

- I understand.
- Smile.

- Guzman, where are you going?
- I'm going to see the captain.

Why?

Listen up, mutinies always fail

and mutinied always die.

I put myself
on the side of whoever is in charge.

Smile!

I tell everything to the captain,
so I get something out of this.

- Do you want to betray them?
- Yes, I have no companions.

If you're not in,
I will denounce you too.

- Don't say that.
- Captain!

- Don't go alone!
- I need to talk to you.

- I'll talk to you first!
- Captain, listen to me, the crew...

In the name of her catholic majesty,

our beloved king.

The attempt
of armed rebellion involves

all people assigned to the oars,

with the exception of the two who
were already exempted from the oars.

In recompense for services rendered,
they will launch the rebels!

I will return from hell
to take my revenge!

We will hang from the main mast

one man every seven starting
from the first on the portside.

I order that the organizer
of the mutiny

be hanged from the mast,

after undergoing the extraction
of his fingernails and toenails

and the burning of his eyes
with hot iron.

All others

will be deprived of their time
on deck for two years.

Silence! Quiet!

Proceed!

One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven.

Leave me!

Help! Let go of me!

I don't want to die!

Leave me!

Help!

Look how fast!
He's already there!

The second one!

One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven.

Take him.

- This is it.
- It's his.

Leave me!

- Rope around the neck.
- Ready.

- Proceed.
- One!

Two! Three!

Who did it?

Throw away the chains!

Let me down!

I'll hang you all!

Throw them overboard!

Move!

Have fun.

So.

We'll do their nails and eyes.

Then we'll send them up
along with that puppet up there.

I point out that we
sent that puppet up there

and not by chance,
everything was programmed.

- Did you do it on purpose?
- Yes, we got it wrong on purpose.

Shut up.

You think
that you are entitled to a prize.

- Yes. It's all because of us.
- Shut up.

- I will get you out of jail.
- You are kind.

- Thank you.
- How?

You said that
mutinies always fail!

Go shit!
If you didn't give me the wrong bag,

we were still on board
being treated like gentlemen!

You always pick on me.
You gave me the wrong rope.

- Watch out, a shark!
- No, it's a piece of the captain.

- He was bloody good.
- You don't make me laugh.

- If we could break the chains!
- Look for a swordfish!

- Are you funny?
- We need a saint.

- I have a patron saint.
- Who is he?

- Saint Ubaldo Pecoracio.
- I have never heard of him.

He was the patron saint of my mother.

I should trust
a saint with that name

who was the protector of a whore?

- Take back what you said!
- You told me that she's a whore!

- Always better than yours.
- There's a floating drum.

He sent it to us!
Thank you, Saint Ubaldo!

Did you see that? You didn't believe it.

- You thank him too.
- Shut up!

Go fuck yourself!

Then don't grab it!

Ask your saint
which way should we go.

Hot water comes from the south
and cold water from the north.

My balls are cold and my ass is hot.

There's the south
and there's the north.

There is Africa and there is Spain.

- Then over there, is home.
- Come to my side.

Move your legs and let's go.

Go! Push!

Don't lean too much,
you make me slip!

Who is it?

- Me, I yawned.
- You woke me up.

- You can't keep a yawn in.
- Then don't stretch out!

Then what's the point?

I'm hungry.

Eat this!

Let's go and look for
someone to free us.

We'll find some fishermen.

The fishermen will denounce us
to get the bounty money.

- The countryside is better.
- Are farmers better?

No, but maybe we find some chickens.

- I like fish better.
- I like chicken better!

- Fish!
- Chicken!

- The fish!
- Chicken!

Let's play it at dice.

With you at dice? I'm not crazy.

- A guessing game?
- Yes.

Here it is, a shell.

- Shell, shell...
- Idiot, play!

Then,
guess which hand I hid it in.

- Where is it?
- Here.

Open this hand.

- Where is it?
- You'll regret it!

You will thank me! Goat!

Did you see?

- Thank me!
- For what?

- You know what's in there?
- Some angry millers.

There's flour in there, you moron!
White and yellow flour

to make
tortillas, buns, rolls...

- You said chickens.
- I said soups.

Porridge, polenta...
Those beautiful polenta!

- Let's go!
- Wait! You're pulling my hand off!

Run!

This way! Imbecile, this way!

Let's go in.

We each take a sack.

What are you doing?

You are a savage!

Let's get the bags.

The earthquake!

The sack has opened!

Let's go away, they'll find us!

There is a man
attached to the blades of the mill!

Now!

Come on!

Who is that madman?

- Let's go!
- Wait.

- Is he a blacksmith?
- That's what we need.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

- Now?
- Hide the chains well.

Don't get nervous.

Let me do the talking.

Let's hope for the best.

Go.

One, two, one, two...

- You make noise!
- You make noise!

Go! One, two...

- Morning.
- Hello.

Hello.

I have lost
the key to this padlock.

Can you open it, please?

Ponzia!

- You're not from around here.
- We are.

Yes or no?

He does and I don't.

Ponzia! Bitch, where are you?
What are you doing?

- I'm here, what's up?
- Bring the set of long keys.

So you're from here?

Yes, near here,
I come from the mills back here.

You guys are jailbirds! There's a big
bounty on escaped convicts!

Shut up.
No, we're not convicts.

- We're prisoners.
- What's the difference?

We are not criminals.

We were traveling to begin
a pilgrimage to the Holy Land,

when our ship
was attacked by pirates.

Ponzia, they have chained us
to take us prisoner

in their inhospitable lands,
but the Lord has not forsaken us!

He unleashed a storm
with thunders and lightnings,

until the pirate ship sunk

and all those infidels
were swallowed up.

How did you save yourself?

- With the help of...
- With the help of the drum.

With the help of the drum of God,
our merciful Lord.

We were going to his holy tomb
to ask for a grace.

- What grace?
- What grace?

Tell him.

For me! For this wreck of a man.

This friend of mine
accompanied this poor blind man.

I am crippled since birth! I am deaf!

We weren't going
to ask for a favor, but...

A miracle! A miracle.

Ponzia. Give me the keys.

Here.

Are you hungry?

Yes, we were in a shipwreck!

On the fly!

To you.

Are you blind?

You accompany him!

- Ponzia, saddle my horse!
- All right.

I'm going to the guards.

- Why did you do the blind?
- Because you were stuttering!

- You don't know how to be blind!
- I lived with a blind man!

I can do blind just fine!

He threw the apple at you
and you caught it on the fly!

I did it out of hunger
and hunger always tricks you.

I brought you some meat.

Eat fast
otherwise he will notice.

Bravo, Ponzia, you are good.

- You're not like your father.
- He's not my father! I hope not.

- You're not sure?
- He calls me bastard

because my mother ran away
with a mule driver 12 years ago.

She did well!

He hates me! He treats me like a dog!

He thinks I'm not his daughter.
What kind of life is this?

We are chained,

otherwise we would help you.

We would say to you:
"Ponzia, we are rogues, vagabonds."

Our life gives no certainty,
but it is free, beautiful!

A day here, a day there!

We go where fortune
and our feet lead us. You'd like it!

Unfortunately we can't take you
because we're chained together.

At least here I have a home and food.

I don't know you,
how can I trust you?

Ponzia, life is a toy.

Yes, more or less.

Go.

Go!

You always say that life is a toy!
It doesn't mean anything!

But it works!
You don't understand that, you goat!

Toy, toy...

- Look, it works!
- Come on, open up!

- It's the right one!
- It opened!

Ponzia, take the bigger key
for the padlock.

Pull the chain!

Get down.

The guards! If my father finds me
here with you, he'll kill me!

- Save me!
- Don't worry, we'll help you.

- Come on!
- One, two...

Three!

- They are there.
- Get them.

- Come on!
- Stand up!

The big key.

Come on!

These chains are so tight!

Walk!

Let's split up!
Each one for himself, God for all!

- Goodbye, Guzman!
- Farewell!

Robbing a nobleman
is like offending God.

- There is no money.
- Noblemen don't carry money.

Especially in a place like this where
there are so many thieves like you.

- Did you steal driven by hunger?
- Yes, I swear to you.

Of course,
I don't know what hunger is,

but I have to imagine
that for an ignorant person like you,

can be a very persuasive counselor.

- Yes, very.
- I will not report you to the guards.

Thank you.

He who is noble has the right
to punish and the duty to redeem.

Do you have an occupation?

- No, most illustrious.
- Call me Your Excellency.

- Yes, Your Excellency.
- Do you want a job?

I am a rogue.

I guessed as much.
I've got just the thing for you.

I need a valet, a stable boy.

I won't discuss the payment, because
a nobleman does not negotiate.

I will give you
what seems to me the most just.

You can live
in my building at my own expense.

Despite what you have done,
I want to give you full trust.

In my building there are
no locked doors or drawers.

- I accept, Excellency.
- Leg.

This way.

Untie the horse.

Walk by my side,
at the rear of the animal.

Rear.

Rider, let me pass.

I will be honored, if you prove
to me that you are entitled to it.

- Do we list the titles?
- Yes.

- I am count and marquis.
- I am also.

My family has been
for 12 generations.

Mine has been too,
for 12 generations.

Among my ancestors there are
three cardinals and a great admiral.

Three generals and a prime minister.

We have a saint,
Saint Castrino of the Lepers.

We have
only the blessed Gasperina.

I'll let you pass, sir.

- Are you with him long?
- Four years.

- Five. How many aunts do you have?
- One.

Three and one is a nun.

Let me pass.

From now on, you will carry these.

This is for the door, you don't
open it without my consent.

The rest
are furniture, cabinets, chests.

You will have to groom and comb
the horse twice a day.

- Yes, twice.
- Morning and evening.

- Where is the fodder?
- No, he doesn't eat fodder and hay.

Barbarone is a war horse,

has simple but delicate tastes.

You will take it to graze the grass
in the meadows around Zamora.

It only likes that. Follow me.

Let me go!

- Come.
- Thank you.

Don't be scared, the house is big,
but I only occupy one wing.

You'll have a few things to tidy up.

- Where is the furniture?
- They will arrive in a few days

from my castle in Asturias,
from which I moved here.

- I didn't want to buy anything.
- Maybe it was better.

I can't stand the idea
of living next to a single object

that didn't belong to my ancestors.

It's dark, light the candelabra.

- The candelabra?
- Yes.

- It's over there, do you see it?
- Excuse me.

Tell me where the kitchen is
and what you want for dinner.

No, don't talk to me about dinner.

Today I ate
with an archpriest, a friend,

who made me eat a lot.

After eating so much,

I won't be able to eat
until tomorrow.

You did eat dinner, didn't you?

No, Excellency, I thought
to eat with your money.

Holy Virgin! Whatever!

Tonight you will be patient,
tomorrow we'll do it another way.

Alright. I have some
leftover bread, I'm going to eat it.

- No, no.
- Here is the candelabra.

You can eat here, sit down.

Next to the fireplace
is more comfortable. Sit down.

- May I?
- Sit down.

Make yourself comfortable.

Most Holy Mother...

Guzman, I tell you

that you eat
with the best grace in the world.

No one can see you eating

without feeling the urge of eating.

Is that Sierra fontina cheese?

I don't know, it's a crust.

The rind is
the tastiest part of the cheese.

It's a tasty cheese!

Without bread,
one can't fully appreciate it!

Good.

Simple foods are always
the best, remember that.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

- I haven't drink wine in forever.
- It's water.

No, drink it!

Pick up the stuff. Follow me.

Help me make the bed.

So you learn
and tomorrow you'll make it.

Gracefully.

Like this, without folds.

Blanket.

At the castle
I have a huge bed with a canopy.

Undress me.

- Is it gold?
- Yes.

It belonged to my poor mother
I would never part with it.

It contains a relic that protects
from disease and misfortune.

- Even from misery?
- I don't care about that.

Listen, now...

I'm going to give you your livery.

Take care of it.

Be careful to close
all the doors and windows,

here is full of thieves.

They roam around
robbing the houses of the rich.

Sleep soundly, excellence.

Wake me up in the morning,
at the hour of the third mass.

Yes.
What do you want for breakfast?

- No breakfast.
- No...

I have to take holy communion,
I have an obligation to fast.

Turn off the candelabra.

The chamber pot.

Here.

Have a good rest.

- Look first!
- It's from a marquis!

- You have already taken communion.
- I can't get enough of it.

In the Cathedral of San Gaudenzio
they also give wine.

- What do you want?
- Do you like this?

Come.

Let me see.

- Who did you steal it from?
- I didn't, it belongs to my master.

He's forced to sell it, but he doesn't
want anybody to know.

- How much does he want?
- 200 scudo.

- 25.
- I accept.

My master is a gentleman
and he doesn't haggle.

- Hurry.
- The knot is tight.

Do you have a knife?

- Cut.
- I could get it for free.

That's why I give good prices.

Thief! Guards!

That one robbed me!

- Who is he?
- That one there! Get him!

Let go of me! I didn't do anything!

- Where do you want to go?
- I haven't done anything!

He stole a locket
I had around my neck.

- I bought it!
- No, he cut it with the knife.

- He has it in his pocket.
- Let me see!

It's the same lace, he just cut it!

- It's mine!
- I paid 25 scudo for it!

Search him, it is a gold coin!

If you want, search me.

Guzman!

- Where are you?
- I am here, Excellency!

I'm going out.

I'm going for a walk,
I'm not coming back to eat.

Hey, there's a coin.

Pick it up.

It's gold!
You are lucky, Excellency.

A piece of gold from 25.

- Whose coin is this?
- It's mine! Thank you, sir!

- Thief!
- No!

What thief?

I gave it to him.

You find a coin and give it to
the first person who passes by?

- It wasn't mine.
- And it wasn't his either.

This is about his conscience
and he seemed like an honest person.

I put the coin on the ground.

I risked a lot to get it!

All right, I appreciate the thought.

It's better this way.
Devil's flour has gone to bran.

Give charity to a poor blind man

who has been struck by a misfortune
greater than the sand of the desert!

Christian brothers,

give alms to this
poor man beaten by bad luck!

I will pray and ask for mercy
for the soul of your deceased,

that you may join him
in heaven as late as possible.

Me too! I'm hungry too.

- Give charity!
- Give charity, please!

Thank you, may the Lord bless you!
I will pray for you.

If you give, it will be given to you!

Give an offering!
Behold my hand!

Brother, may God reward you
in the Kingdom of Heaven!

Life flees like a shadow
And never stops!

Never stops!

Stop! Thief!

Weren't you crippled?

You wanted to steal right from me!
Cheater!

- You are good, a born actor.
- Who is it?

- Even I gave you half a royal.
- I can give it back to you.

I'll think about it.

Wash up first.

Wash yourself! Come on, walk!

Clean yourself well!

Good, that's much better.

Don't be afraid, I am not a guard.

Let me see you, like this.

- Yes, you're going to be fine.
- Where?

I am the head of a company
of theatrical performers.

Today we will perform a sacred
representation by the Baptist nuns.

The Inquisition has arrested
one of my actors

for blasphemy and lewd acts.

I have been out
looking for a replacement all day.

- I think you would be a good fit.
- Me? Me an actor?

You have to say a few words.
If you don't say them, that's okay.

You have to stand on stage
with a pained expression.

- Like this?
- Good! I'll give you a coin!

No, you've already got one. If you
do well, you get into the company.

So, you refuse again

to sacrifice to the divine
Diocletian, our emperor.

There is only one God in heaven,
illustrious Sulpicius.

He is the one who has revealed to us
our Lord Jesus Christ.

Save me, Lord,

with your love.

So you, traitor,
will not acknowledge

the majesty and the power
of the divine Diocletian!

I recognize his majesty and
his power, but not his divinity.

Save me, Lord,

with your love.

You know
that for this you deserve death!

It will be welcomed,

by the grace
of our sweet Lord Jesus Christ.

To death!

- Shoot!
- No, not the arrows!

Boss!

Get dressed, why
are you still naked?

I found this note
hidden in my shoes

And I'm not very good...
Tell me what it says.

"I am devoted to Saint Sebastian
and now to you too."

"You represent him
with such truth and sweetness."

"Come Thursday to the grates,
I will make myself known"

"with one long cough
and two short ones."

Congratulations, they liked you!

What does it mean
"Thursday to the grates?"

Thursdays in the parlor

cloistered nuns can
receive relatives, acquaintances,

as well as their suitors.

Who knows
how it feels with a nun!

- Give charity.
- Get lost!

- Sir!
- It's for me.

- No, the cough is mine!
- How dare you? Impertinent!

Damn you!

Sebastian, you were beautiful
tied to the column.

Helpless, defenseless, all naked.

- They hurt you a lot, didn't they?
- Yes, a lot!

- What is your name?
- Pierced Sister of the Seven Swords.

- "Pierced?"
- Sweet Sebastian, please,

open your shirt, let me touch
the holy wounds, of your chest.

Little girl, go away!

Yes, nun.

Here, Pierced.

What are you doing?

Your fingers are a balm

for my wounds!

Sister Piercing,
a little more here!

Pierced, I want to touch you,
even with your cassock on.

- One more moment!
- No, my sweet, not today.

Put your finger
in one of these crevices

and I will kneel down and kiss it.

A finger?

Lower.

- Further down!
- Where?

Yes!

Yes!

Pierced!
Yes!

Yes!

It's time to leave!

- You're leaving me like this?
- Goodbye, my beloved.

Come on, out!

- Pierced, are you leaving?
- Out!

You, over there!

- Out!
- One moment!

- The finger is stuck!
- Get out at the first sound!

This Pierced
is she young or old?

Go! They are cloistered nuns!

Away! Away! Away!

Open!

In the name of the king,
open to the criminal notary!

- Guzman.
- Yes, Your Excellency?

I'll open.

Get Barbarone out of the barn
from the other side.

- But sir...
- You will keep him with you,

in exchange for the services
you have rendered to me.

- You are a good young man, Guzman.
- Open up!

Mr. Marquis,
run away too, I'll take care of it!

A nobleman never runs away!
You go, boy.

Come in.

Tell me.

We are looking for Marquis Felipe
de Alemont, Count of Asturias.

- It's me.
- The owner of this palace,

various shopkeepers and suppliers
have reported you

for a sum of debts and obligations
incurred and not paid.

- Yes, I know.
- Do you intend to satisfy them?

I would like to, but at the moment
I'm out of cash.

Then I have a repossessing order
for furniture, furnishings,

silverware, jewelry, carpets,

furs and everything else
found in your dwelling.

- Help yourself.
- Soldiers!

There's nothing here! It's empty!

The rooms are empty!

There is only one chamber pot.

There's nothing here either!

- We only found these.
- They are yours.

I am forced to take you to court.

One step behind, please.

Barbarone, be good!

- Life is such a toy!
- Again!

I'm dressed as a knight
and I go on foot,

you are dressed as a servant
and you ride a horse?

Let's fix this right now! Give me
the dress and it all makes sense!

Ignorant,
this is an actor's costume.

The dress is not yours,
but the horse is mine.

Yes, but I get paid a coin a day.

We have a horse,
a dress and a coin,

we put everything together
and do the pastries trick!

All right, come on down.

Me? You get undressed.

You know that we need
a master and a servant!

Yes, you give me the dress

and I'll play the part of the master.

You are the son of a whore,
you play the servant.

I am an actor,
I act better than you!

So... Shall we let luck decide?

Yes.

Let's do fingers.

Not this one. This one!

Go!

Hello.

Some time ago I tasted your pastries
they were excellent.

I order 100 of them
for my guests this evening.

- 100, excellence?
- Yes.

Someone will come and get them.

Lazarus, give a coin in advance
and join me at the jeweler's.

- There, that's a coin!
- Thank you.

- I'll try it.
- You're welcome.

The lady
to whom the gift is destined

has fair skin and blue eyes.

Your Excellency, you know,
blue eye need a sapphire!

I prefer the colors
of my coat of arms.

- Yellow...
- Gold.

- Bravo. White...
- Pearls.

- Pearls. Red...
- You need a ruby!

- And green.
- The emerald.

Right now
I don't have anything ready.

- But I can make it.
- No.

I'm in a hurry, my lady can't wait.

Yes?

Let's see...

All right, how much is it?

It costs 70 scudo,
it's a price I can't argue with.

- I'll take it. Lazarus.
- Yes, Excellency?

- Give this man 60 scudo.
- Excellency, I said...

- 60 is a good price!
- All right, Excellence.

Excellency, I remind you that we have
left 100 scudo to the pastry chef,

so that he could change them into 100
coins which we would then get back.

Excellency,
go ahead and take your money.

On your return I will give you
the necklace, I am in no hurry.

I'm in a big hurry!

Follow me with the jewel. Come.

You, deliver 60 of the 100
to this distrustful gentleman.

- Do you understand?
- 60 to the gentleman.

- Are you happy? Are you calm?
- Always at orders!

- Is it okay?
- Yes.

Jewel.

- Horse.
- Right away.

- Your servant.
- Farewell.

Jump!

Go!

- Waiter!
- Here I am.

- The bill.
- Three coins.

Did you eat well?

Here's to your health!

Would you like more?

I am undecided
between a nice golden partridge

and a beautiful black beaver
with curly hair.

Is that a pretty beaver?

Let's pay.

Three coins divided by two makes...

- One and a half each.
- Half?

You got the hare pie

which costs twice as much
of my bean soup!

You wanted to go partner with me
so expenses and earnings in half!

- A coin and a half!
- You got nervous.

I put on the dress and the coin!

I put on the horse and the idea!

I left a nun who could suck a finger
like no one else in the world!

Look who's coming!

Chicks and sparrows!

Goodbye.

- Warm.
- Later.

- Cheers to you.
- Hello.

- Cheers to you.
- We want to end in glory

- this magnificent dinner.
- With a good orgy!

- How much does it cost?
- It depends.

On what?

One woman alone
and one after another.

One for both,
or two, one for each of you.

Two for both.

- What did he say?
- You never understand!

- Make that two for each of us.
- If you understood.

- It depends on what you choose.
- Again?

- We always choose the best.
- Of course!

Two and a half coins for an hour,
five for the night.

- Per person.
- Are we the people?

No, the four of them.

That's a lot of money.

Make it one of two!

Thank you, dear, good.
Eat something.

No, I'm tired, I'm going to sleep.

Call me, if needed.

- Can we sit down?
- Yes, please.

Out of curiosity,
how much do you make on a whore?

- Well, it depends.
- Of course!

In my case it's a good investment.

- How good?
- It depends!

- Hush.
- If you take out the expenses,

inn, food, clothes, hairstyles,

perfume, some expenses...

You earn 30 coins
per week for each.

If they don't get sick.

Hello, Dad.

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

- Good evening.
- Good girls.

Eat.

- Daddy, where's mommy?
- She's resting.

Be careful,
mine is a family business.

It easier. We have lower expenses,
everything in common.

- We work in harmony.
- How much did you start with?

Me, with nothing, my wife.

When I realized
that she would betray me,

I said: "Not for free!"

My wife was good
and she earned a lot right away.

She brought me her sister,
my sister-in-law Ines.

And then a cousin, very hairy.

I had the great fortune that
my wife gave birth to two daughters,

good and obedient.

They are in high demand!
They never stop!

I spread out,

I bought a few more girls
here and there.

- Can they be bought?
- Do you have money to invest?

- It depends!
- Shut up! Let me do the talking.

For 30 scudo I can give her to you,
that's what I paid her a week ago.

- I bought her from the gypsies.
- Does she have a problem?

No, she has many qualities,
but she's a foreigner

and she doesn't bond much
with the others.

They always argue and at my age
I don't feel like fighting anymore.

Take a good look at her
before you buy her.

Warm blood and great experience!

- Does she have all teeth?
- Yes, all of them!

- Is she curly?
- Turn her over.

No, it's silky, but it's better.

- Not better!
- I like it silky!

- I like it curly!
- Silky!

No, the customers have to like it.

Trust me, I have experience,
you stay away.

- We don't...
- No, it's not a woman,

is your business, if you
mix up the roles, trouble comes.

He's right, it's a done deal.

This is my part.

This is my part.

Not even a discount?

Rosario. You changed master.

- You are of these two knights.
- Yes!

- Rosario, we are the masters!
- The new ones!

Excuse me, may I?

Shoes and clothing are not
included, I sold it by net weight.

- Naked?
- Keep them.

We are rogues,

above all we are free

like gypsies, not very stable,
birds in the trees,

mice among the furniture,
we are nomads.

With our limits,

killed by debts.

We are different from our fellows,
we are masters of impossible dreams,

we are rogues.

Like dogs we talk to the moon,

listen to us.

Poor blind people, we sell luck.

They are queuing up! Bravo, come on!

You won't regret it!

It's money well spent!

We are almost there. Come.

Barbarone!

Sit on the fence,
the shop will open soon!

This is the first movable brothel.

With all the comforts
and far from the eyes of the wives.

- With no inn expenses.
- And bruises from holes and bushes.

First-rate merchandise, check it out.

For the opening day,
special prices!

Today, for the first one who raises
his hand, half a coin.

And the last one too!
Payment in advance.

Go and hurry,
your friends are waiting!

Who is the second?
Pay and get in line!

- Pay and get in line!
- Stop! The nigger in the back.

Keep it hot!

- Are you done yet?
- She doesn't want me.

- What?
- She said no.

- What?
- She doesn't want me!

- Why?
- I don't like him.

You don't have to like him!

- I won't do it with that one!
- What did she say?

- She said she won't.
- Why don't you?

I don't like any of them,
they are old, dirty and fat!

I won't do that with them!

We want the money back!

Go now!

Son of a bitch!
Wait!

We paid you through the nose!

You made us spend so much money!

If I catch you,
I'll beat you to a pulp!

Do you rebel against the master?

- I'll break your teeth!
- No, not the teeth!

Are you crazy?
You're ruining the business! Stop it!

You're a whore,
you have to go with everyone!

Do you want to teach me the trade?
There are whores for all purposes

and those that can choose
the clients. I am one of those.

- He didn't tell us!
- Now I'm telling you!

Pay attention to what I like.

I like them young, tall and blonde!

In Spain
tall and blond don't exist!

She wanted to say nice,
pleasant, like us, am I right?

We are the masters
and we decide who you go with!

- With the young, tall, blond ones!
- Keep still!

Be still! Stop!

Let's try to sleep! Let's sleep!

Let's have a quiet night!

Can't sleep here!

Ladies and gentlemen...
Thank you, baby. Girls and boys...

I want to try it with him,
he's the one.

In my opinion he's not for her.

Not for her? He is tall, young
and blond. I would go with him too!

Wooden cups
all handcrafted! Thank you.

Tall, young, and blond...

He's blondish. Blondie.

He has a mouth full of teeth. No!

Rosario is going to send him away.

What more does she want? He's fine.
Look, women like him so much!

Stop.

Here we go.

We found you a blond one!

Please, observe the merchandise.

But...

- All right, that's fine.
- Of course! Go!

- What are you doing? You go inside.
- I wait for the other one to finish.

- She found a man on her own.
- Thank goodness!

We go pimping around!

- Take care.
- Did you pay for it?

- What do I have to pay?
- The fee.

Get the money out!

- She called me!
- She?

She called you because she's a whore.

I don't care!

- Why did you call him?
- Because I liked him.

Did you like him? I disgust you
and you like that louse?

Watch your mouth!
I am a rogue.

We're too, give us money.

She paid me,
look what she gave me.

Our earrings!

You gave them to me
and I gave them to you.

- Give us the earrings!
- Easy!

- It is what it is.
- Run away! Run!

Burn!

You defended him!
You had free sex with it!

You gave him gifts too!

What did that one have more than me?

- Stop! You ruin the merchandise!
- Yes, I'm ruining her!

Bitch! She rejects those who pay
and goes with those who don't pay!

Stop!

I'll never give it to you.

What does that have to do with me?

He has fallen in love!

- Have you fallen in love?
- Me? With her?

- No way!
- I'm hungry!

- Cook!
- I'm not a cook.

- I'm a whore!
- Then be a whore!

- Who doesn't work doesn't eat!
- Don't touch me!

Stop it! Stop.

- I'll do the cooking.
- Lazy!

I'll cook.

They've been there for three hours!

Aren't you happy? The longer
he's there, the more he pays!

Yes, but she's been with him
for five days!

Every day!
She doesn't want to change place!

We are fine here,
look what I've caught.

If he falls in love and takes her
away? I say that for the business.

I'm going to throw him out now,
you know what I mean?

Yes, I understand.

Come on, it's closing! Come on, out!

- I paid until sunset.
- It is sunset, can't you see that?

- That's in an hour!
- What do you want? Shut up!

Now I'll pay you back
the hour you have left.

This is the...

This is the coin, go!

Go on, get lost!
I don't want to see you anymore!

I'll be waiting for you!

See you tomorrow!

There will be no tomorrow!

- What do we do? Let's leave.
- No!

- Then?
- I'm closing the company.

- Why?
- You, get out!

- What's going on?
- I'm tired of...

This is our property,
cart and horse,

which are not divisible
and make one lot.

The girl is the other lot.

I don't even want to argue, I'll let
you choose, which one do you want?

The girl!

That's why I got tired of it!
You, get out! Useless bitch!

- Your rags too!
- He's crazy!

Go, Barbarone!

- He left us the fish.
- What do we do now?

We change life, I work and you
be a lady, served and revered!

Come on, gentlemen! Half a coin
for who wants to be carried across!

Two coins for the litter! Come on,
how long does it take to cross?

- I am fully loaded!
- Two coins on the litter!

Half a coin on the shoulders!
Get moving!

- For you, young man.
- Thank you, madam.

The effort is mine,
but the money is your!

- They should pay by the pound!
- Please come, monsignor.

Work and shut up.

- Now this...
- Shut up and work!

- Attention, with caution.
- Do not push!

- I'm going downhill.
- Caution!

Cautiously.

Go slowly.

Go slowly!

Beast!
Damn you! I'll kill you!

Delinquent! God will punish you!

Wretched soul!

Eat less! With that belly,
you'll be carried in a carriage!

- Goat!
- Exploiter!

You rascal!

To keep them from getting wet,
he makes himself sick!

He gets his hernia out!
Get your feet wet!

- Good evening, Mr. Lazarillo.
- Good evening.

Do you bathe all naked?

- How should I take a bath?
- At least lock the door.

Bathing at this hour!

Everything is in a mess,
the bed needs to be made up.

I was in bed until just now.

Didn't you say that you would work
and I would be a lady?

Luckily we're staying
with this innkeeper.

We've been here for a week and
he still hasn't asked us for money.

- He's a good person.
- I have sex with him every morning.

You filthy thing! Do you wash yourself?

You wash up and I work my ass off
all day in the creek!

You sleep with that old pig!

Are you that much of a whore?

Yes, because
with your job I can't live!

You know what? You're right.

It's no use trying to change us,
I'm a rogue and you're a whore.

Did you ask him
the other room for you?

There are two customers,
that one and that one.

- I'm going to go talk to them.
- No, I'll go.

- How much am I asking for?
- At least a coin.

Four for the whole night.

Okay.

- So.
- Done.

Two coins, he'll come at midnight.

- How long will he stay?
- Two hours.

Then you have time
for the old one too. Go.

- I'm going now.
- Bravo! It's easy to get along.

I tamed her!

Love, wake up!

Who are you? What do you want?

Who are you? Go away!

I paid two coins.

She is in the room next door!

No, I paid for you,
she told me that you...

Go away!

She did it! Damn her!

- Rosario!
- Stop! I paid two coins!

Rosario! Rosario!

Where is she? Rosario!

- Rosario!
- She went out with the older man.

With the old man!

Rascal!

Rosario! You'll pay for this!

Why? You have a hole too, so use it!

Me?

Goodbye!

- 11.
- He won another time!

Who wants to play with me?

Who wants to try their luck with me?

- Me!
- Me too!

Good. Good.

The dice are rigged.

My friend,
luck is blind, like death.

Watch your mouth.

You're a tough guy! You do this job

without having passed
through Mr. Mozzafiato?

I never heard that
one must pay to be a cheater?

If you're not part of the fraternity
around here you pay.

I thought being a cheater

was a free profession,
exempt from taxes and fees.

When you pay, it is once
for all, pledging your neck.

If every place has its own laws,
I will respect those of this city.

We'll hear
what Mr. Mozzafiato thinks.

Let's hear from Mozzafiato.

Hello.

Son, what is it? Why
aren't you at the arsenal?

He was practicing without a permit,

but he seems like a smart young man

and I brought it to you
to let you examine him.

- Who are you?
- My name is Guzman de Alfarache.

I am the son of Mateo, who died
hanged in July of '68.

My mother was a witch and
sorceress, she died a year later.

I have been three times in the
stocks, five at the stake with lashes

- and three and a half years in jail.
- What can you do?

I can play dice, get good cards
and mark them.

I'm good at other games too.

I'm also good at pickpocketing.

These are old things!
All beginners can do them!

Are you brave?

- He is brave.
- Yes?

He knows how
to make the knife talk.

All right, let's put him to the test
and let's see what he can do.

- Rigagnolo!
- Yes?

Bring in the notebook.

Let's hurry or we'll be late.

Read what jobs
are still to be assigned.

The fraternity gives a lot
and asks little,

but woe to those who make mistakes!

- Tell me.
- Hits.

12 more to give to the doorman.

Deadline in six days.
Five coins paid on account,

Cascamorto has the assignment,
but has not yet performed it.

- The six days are up tomorrow.
- He went tonight, he'll be done.

Go ahead.

To the tailor six extra strokes
at the request of the lady

who has left this necklace.

Scamozzato has the assignment,
but he hasn't executed it yet,

despite it's two days late.

The tailor is sick
and he doesn't leave the house.

- When he comes out, I'll get him.
- You have to warn me!

- I have notified the lady.
- You have to warn me! Get up!

You'll get 25 lashes
on your bare ass.

- Anything else?
- A disfigurement of a merchant.

- We are waiting for confirmation.
- It has been confirmed.

Do you want to do this?

That would be an amazing debut.

- What is this about?
- A 20 scudo disfigurement.

If you succeed, you become a
brother without doing anything else.

All right, though, one moment.

You have to change my knife,
mine is blunt.

Yes,
the guys will give you the knife.

- I want specific directions.
- I'll give you directions later.

Now I want to eat and drink.

Come on,
now I want some movements.

Lift up your skirts!

Do you see this knife?

Boy, I only have a few pennies,

I'm doing this to prevent...

I have to give you
a cut from here to here.

Virgin Mother!

- Why?
- I got this assignment.

- An eleven centimeters cut.
- Why don't you do it to me?

I don’t know if it’s best
or if maybe it’s better...

- 50 scudo.
- 60 it’s even better.

- You don't have them.
- I have them in the house.

I'll go get them and come back.

Listen, if you don't trust me,
you come to my house,

- I only live with my wife.
- In the wolf's den?

I'm old and sickly.

You have a knife,
at least trust it.

- Excuse me for leaning on you.
- Where are we going?

To that doorway.

Wait.

My wife and I are alone
and these days...

Fernando, is that you?

Yes, it's me. Open.

We have a guest.

- Please, sir.
- Come on in, have a seat.

- We'll be done in a minute.
- Good evening.

He is a good young man,
an angel sent from heaven.

- God bless you!
- I am very grateful to him.

- I owe him 50 scudo.
- We said 60.

Sure! He needs money so much!

- Maybe he'd like something.
- I'll just take the money and go.

- Where are the alchermes?
- Here.

Our herculeses
are still over there?

They are extraordinary,
they are homemade by my wife.

Go find them. Do you understand?

We're going to give them a taste.
How many are there?

- Four.
- Very good! That's enough.

- Did you get it right?
- Yes, I understand!

I'll give you some alchermes.

Sit down,
that's the most comfortable one.

This one is special.

- Money.
- Yes, I'm going to go get it.

But...

Are those all his children?

Yes, five of them.

All boys.
They're real devils!

That's a recent painting, isn't it?

No, it's been many years.

They've grown up by now.

At that time
they were still shitting themselves!

Back off!

- Get him!
- Help!

Help!

He's a murderer!

Quickly, guards!

- It's him!
- Let's get him!

- Over there!
- Let's get him!

Hold him down!

People of the city of Arevalo,
be silent and listen.

Today, July 11, 1598,

will be sentenced to death
by hanging

a vicious criminal, murderer
of a guard of his majesty.

And a thief who is a false healer
will have his right hand cut off.

These sentences must
be of warning

for all Christians, Moors and Jews.

Watch and meditate, people of Arevalo,
and give thanks to the Lord

and to the justice
of our beloved King Philip.

What are we waiting for?
Are the condemned there?

Yes, they are ready.

We are waiting for the executioner,
he had a wedding today.

- A wedding?
- His son is getting married.

That's why he is late.
He is on his way.

Hello.

Give me the hood!

The drums can start.

Kids, go home!

Watch out!

Cover the one
who must be hanged!

Hurry! The bride and groom are
waiting for me to get to the table!

- Guzman, what have you done?
- Who are you? What do you want?

- Lazarillo, what are you doing here?
- I found a job.

Nobody wants to do it,
but they pay well.

- Tell me about yourself.
- Key.

I stabbed a guard.

I die like my father,
but without a ceremony.

- So?
- Now!

I must be the one
to do you this service!

It is the fate of a rogue,
but you could help me.

- Make the rope break.
- Move!

I would, but I have just started,
the hangman does the hangings.

- I will cut off the thief's hand.
- I would like to be in his place.

- Yes?
- New one!

- Hurry up!
- Yes, we are ready!

- No blindfold!
- You'll get scared without it.

- No blindfold!
- Who is to be hanged?

- Him!
- Bring him here!

You cut off the other guy's hand!
Quickly!

The guests are waiting for me!
Lunch is getting cold!

Ask Christ for forgiveness,
you will soon meet him.

What are you saying? There is a
mistake, I haven't done anything!

- I stole, I am innocent!
- You are not innocent

Ask God for forgiveness,
repent, murderer!

Holy Virgin!

I didn't do anything!
I am innocent!

Where are you taking me?

Why do I have the rope
around my neck? Go away!

Die!

Cut off the hand!

My friend, life is a toy.

Go!

It's lukewarm.

It's a little sour.

Instead of holding the sheep,
do you suck the hook?

Do you steal the milk?

- The goat herder!
- That's my stuff!

Get the bucket!

Leave the bucket! Thieves!

Help me!

Criminals!
If I catch you, I'll kill you!

- The dogs!
- Tear those thugs apart!
