Hey, you!

Hello, Do�a Isabel! How is your back?

You owe three months rent already.

What are you waiting for? A miracle?

This is an honest community

and if you don't pay... you're out of here!

Well, the thing is...

You have until Monday. If not I'll call the police.

This is so good...

How was your day?

Fine.

Alfredo, your feet stink.

We have to do the powder again,

it doesn't last.

The Seventh Art: Bogart, Garbo and many more.

"The World of Cinema" encyclopedia by Montoya Publishers.

Buy the first installment and

get the second one free. For only 30 pesetas.

Every week at your newsstand.

Installments - for what?

It takes three years to get it all.

And then you need the cover to bind it,

it's more expensive than if you buy the complete encyclopedia.

Let's go to bed so we can rest

and tomorrow all of us can go to work...

Sorry.

- I had two left! - What?

What else, honey? The condoms.

Alfredo...

Three can live as cheaply as two.

No, my love, no way.

We can't even pay the electricity or the telephone or the rent.

We don't even have enough for condoms.

- What's this? - No...

- Now you've gotten all upset. - Yes.

- Come on, my love. - No, not now.

- Why not? - No.

You've got me going now.

Where were you?

Don Carlos wants to speak to you. Get ready, he's sure happy!

Good morning, Miss Vanessa.

I think Don Carlos...

- Uncle Carlos... Alfredo is here. - Tell him to come in.

Go on then.

Thanks.

Sit down, please.

The door-to-door sales of encyclopedias

have decreased dramatically.

They only represent one percent of our total sales.

In less than five years sales have dropped

from about 1 13 million pesetas

to two million pesetas in the last quarter...

From a staff of forty salesmen only four are left.

On the other hand, the weekly installment

has increased proportionally. That's why

the door-to-door salesman

is going to disappear.

How long have you been with us?

Fifteen years.

How many?

Fifteen.

And like the old saying goes: "Renewal or Death".

I have no choice.

I have to restructure the company.

That's why we are going to organize a conference

of new sales techniques for the launch

of a new product, revolutionary and top secret.

The conference will be held this coming weekend

in a resort hotel.

Consider yourself invited.

And Marlon Brando gets up,

races off to the kitchen,

gets a bar of margarine from the fridge...

And he tells her, "Come here bitch...

take off your pants and your panties".

All this in French.

I don't speak French but it doesn't matter...

And he starts to stuff butter in her buttocks like French toast.

And then... he sticks in his "twinkie" without warning.

She could be his daughter.

Oh my God! And he keeps going on and on.

Of course, she screams...

You're hurting me. You're really hurting me.

I thought "The Last Tango in Paris"

was a musical.

What an obscene movie!

That would never happen in Spain.

Paris Beauty Parlor.

Yes.

We're going to a resort hotel for the weekend.

All expenses paid by Montoya Publishers.

Ask La Fina if you can have Saturday off.

Honey, I can't talk right now.

She's looking at me. I'll call you later, bye.

Tell your husband not to call you at work.

Honey, we come here to work, OK? If not... out.

You're too nice, Fina.

My shop girls are the same.

Hasn't it been on too long?

Holy shit!

Your severance pay.

This car does everything but talk.

Look, anatomical leather seats, anti-fog headlights,

Formula 1 steering wheel, 8-track player

with quadraphonic sound...

- Dynamite! - Sure. Look where you're going!

But I am looking where I'm going.

Carmen, what's bugging you now?

I'm feeling sick...

Will you go a little bit slower? Slow down.

How many encyclopedias can you fit in the trunk?

Lots! This car is fucking great!

DULCINEA HALL:

FIRST CONFERENCE OF MONTO YA PUBLISHERS

Good evening.

Shut up.

Good evening.

Welcome to Montoya Publishers first conference.

Vanessa, please.

Good evening, I am Dr. Johansen

from the Copenhagen Institute of Sexual Research

and I welcome you to the fascinating world of Reproduction.

Did you know that in Zaire the Mambusi tribe

dig holes in the ground and put their penises in them

to please the fertility gods?

Did you know that in China,

diminutive feet

are a symbol of beauty and desire?

And that the stronger the aroma and smaller the size

the greater the pleasure?

Our institute answers all these questions

with the most fascinating encyclopedia of all.

"The World Audiovisual Encyclopedia of Reproduction".

Each week you'll receive an installment

and one Super 8 movie

featuring the reproductive rites and customs

of countries from around the world.

In Scandinavia,

"The World Audiovisual Encyclopedia of Reproduction"

has achieved record sales.

Montoya Publishers will have the honor

of collaborating in the installments

on Spanish reproductive customs.

And I want to offer you a unique opportunity.

Make these educational Super 8 movies

in your own home while you copulate,

- and you will be participating... - What's copulate?

...in this rigorous scientific study.

Of course, this encyclopedia

will only be sold in Scandinavian countries.

Any questions?

Pardon me... In other words,

you want us to make the movies

when we are making love to our wives,

in our homes.

Scientifically speaking, yes.

This is an insult. It's disgusting.

How much per movie?

Fifty thousand pesetas per movie plus a bonus,

depending on the number of movies sold.

In other words, installment sales.

Don't you think my wife and I

are too old for this kind of experiment?

No, I don't. Every complete scientific experiment

needs a sample of the entire active population

of the country. Without...

Count on us, Don Carlos.

Thank you. Without further delay,

let's welcome our experts...

Erik Molander and his wife Frida.

Erik Molander was a longtime assistant

to the famous Swedish director, Ingmar Bergman.

Now he's supervisor of the collection.

During this weekend Erik and Frida will teach you

how to make these movies.

We can't leave as we have no car. Otherwise...

Thank you.

As Queen Elizabeth "The Catholic" used to say,

"Better honesty without ships than ships without honesty."

Please, thank you.

The prawns are glorious, have one.

No thank you.

Carmen, you don't look good.

Maybe it's your outfit, it makes you look short.

Jose Carlos, look at those lamb chops. They look great!

Do me a favor.

Let me help you.

Alfredo, don't eat any more prawns, please.

Can I count on you?

If you want to leave, a bus in the morning

will take you to Madrid.

But if you decide to take this bus,

your services will no longer be required

by the Montoya Publishing Family.

Honey, I told you not to eat so many prawns or you'll get sick.

His first smile.

His first caress.

His first kiss. His first baby food, Nestun.

Alfredo, how much per movie? Fifty thousand?

And a bonus...

Do we have to do it with the light on or off?

Don't even think about it.

My wife isn't going to show her bits.

No way! Not for a science, not for the pope!

I didn't say anything.

Exactly.

How many encyclopedias do you have to sell

to get fifty thousand pesetas?

1 54.

Forget it!

We're not going to do it and that's it!

Carmen...

We can talk about it if you want.

Pull!

Pull, baby!

The important thing is for woman not to dress for man

but to take off for man...

slow and hot.

Please, take off clothes for man.

Me?

Now!

All day I don't have.

Your man.

What's this?

A camera.

No, it's your eye,

through which you are going to see the world from now on.

Bergman used to say,

"Films are the reflection of reality

seen through the eyes of a child."

The camera is like a car

and you have to steer the image.

Ready...

Get set... go.

Everything! Everything!

Shutter, aperture,

viewfinder, film and battery.

Types of lens:

Wide angle, normal and telephoto.

Two or three things I teach you.

Your husband appreciate.

Cut.

Yes, Alfredo?

Erik, I think Frida

threw a shadow over you

and the high angle

isn't the best to capture the action.

I think a low angle

with a long lens

from the other side

would be much better.

Very intelligent observation, Alfredo.

Bergman used to say, "The position of the camera

and the choice of lens must represent

the soul of the human being."

Alfredo, move the camera. Fast!

Yes.

- Come on, Alfredo! - I'm coming!

Alfredo L�pez

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

And so our first conference comes to an end.

I want you all to take a few days off

and shoot your first movie.

Do it for the progress of Science.

If you don't know what to do,

copy the master

who knew damn well what to do.

The important thing is to shoot and shoot...

For you.

- Bergman used to say... - Shut up!

My boys...

Rene, Lars

- and Bo. - They're precious!

Carmen, you must have child soon.

- Send photo to me. Copenhagen. - I promise.

Yes.

This could be the beginning of a great partnership.

Don't let me down.

Come on guys, hurry up or we'll get stuck in a traffic jam.

And don't get sick and slow me down, Carmen.

Hey, you!

Good evening, Do�a Isabel.

By the way,

I have what we agreed...

And I'm also going to pay you

two months in advance for rent

and utilities.

Do�a Isabel, please, why don't you fix the toilet?

And the spigot in the bidet doesn't work. Thanks, good night.

Action!

Take it off.

Ow! You're hurting me!

If it's a boy we'll call him Alfredo.

And if it's a girl...

Marisol, like the movie star...

I'll explain.

Don't worry, it's not bad.

Not bad.

You have to take care of some details, but it's not bad.

There's more.

Hit it.

Very good.

Very good. Very good.

Very good.

Congratulate Carmen.

Very good.

Very good.

Very good. Very good.

Remember,

more movies, more bonus.

PREGNANCY TEST

Surprise!

Grundig Supercolor.

The most advanced television on the market.

You like it?

But it's a color TV.

Honey,

take me to the movies.

I love you.

- Does it still hurt? - Not much, sometimes.

Does it move?

Well, before it seemed like a kick.

You're joking! Why is that?

I don't know, maybe he wants out.

- But it's too soon, isn't it? - Yes, but he likes to kick.

It was beautiful, wasn't it?

That was a great tearjerker.

The photography was great.

He uses the zoom very well.

Alfredo,

do you love me?

Of course.

Not of course! I want you to say it.

What?

You silly!

GOODBYE STORK, GOODBYE

I love you baby I love you baby

I want you to know I'm happy

I love you baby I love you baby

I live thinking about you

Guide and I will follow

because my way is your way

Look at me your eyes will be

what makes me see the sky so blue

Our love is no illusion

of ever-changing color

I love you baby I love you baby

I want you to know I'm happy

I love you baby I love you baby

I live thinking about you

Love me Your voice is a song

I am king of the world

Love me The sunshine will shine

like I never imagined

Our love is no illusion

of ever-changing color

I love you baby

You're next.

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen

I love you and you know it

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen

I'll never forget you

Don't listen, please

Don't listen, it's better

Carmen I know you can't sleep

with that great fear

Tell me where can I be better

than with your kisses and your love

I know you used to say

I don't really love you

Always know it isn't true

without your smile I cannot live

Always know that people

envy those who are happy

Hey, don't be a pain. Help me.

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen

I love you and you know it

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen

I'll never forget you

Don't listen, please

Don't listen, it's better

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen

I love you and you know it

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen

I'll never forget you

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen

I love you and you know it

Carmen, Carmen, Carmen

Carmen,

I'm tired of...

just making the same movie.

TV SCHEDULE

INGMAR BERGMAN FILM FESTIVAL 22:00 "THE SEVENTH SEAL"

Are you ready?

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Wait a moment.

That is what they all say,

but I don't give any more time.

I'm going to bed.

Do you play chess? Why should we play?

If you lose the game, you let me live.

Yours are the blacks.

- Can I help you? - No, thank you.

Are you taking it, ma'am?

I'm just looking, I don't know.

I'll keep on looking, thank you.

Look, this one is on sale. It's a great carriage.

I'll take it.

Carmen, what's the matter? Where have you been?

I've been looking for you. What's this carriage?

- Are you all right? - Yes.

That's him.

Excuse me!

I'm going to kick his ass!

- Stop over there. - Pardon me.

Let me deal with him.

Carmen, Carmen...

you sign autograph?

- This is a misunderstanding. - Sorry, this is a mistake.

Very good actress

and very pretty.

Sure, sure. Give it to me.

- Should I sign? - Yes.

What's your name?

Carmen... And you?

Dennis, Dennis.

Thank you, thank you.

- Alfredo! - Carmen!

What a coin-ci-dence.

We were surprised you didn't return to Madrid.

We were.

It's been a pleasure seeing you.

We have to go now, we're double parked.

How are the movies going?

Do you have a life insurance policy?

No.

This is genuine otter...

Call me on Monday.

I'm sure you need life insurance.

And an accident insurance policy.

Let's go, Jose Carlos. We're going to be late for church.

Call me.

I have to talk to Don Carlos. This can't go on.

And finally the Copenhagen Institute of Sexual Research

sends its congratulations!

The "World Audiovisual Encyclopedia of Reproduction"

has been a success.

Darling...

Charly, Charly.

- Look who it is! - It's M�ximo Valverde.

M�ximo Valverde.

How are you? I'm so glad to see you!

What's up? What are you doing now?

Shooting a spaghetti western in Almer�a.

They're in style.

The star is Telly Savalas, and as usual I'll be the ladies' man.

You never stop. Come and join us.

- Of course! - Waiter!

Let me introduce you to my niece Vanessa...

Hello.

- My employee Alfredo L�pez, - A pleasure.

- How do you do? - And his wife Carmen.

A pleasure.

Juan Luis Hurtado, at your service.

Tell me, what are you going to do after this movie?

I have something to tell you, Don Carlos.

- Go on. - Well...

For Carmen and I

it's embarrassing to do these films.

The other day we were shopping...

and a foreign guy was filming us

with a Super 8 camera

and he showed us a magazine that...

That's why we don't want to make

any more Scientific movies.

Don't worry. I'll talk to the Institute.

Take some time off and call me when you get back, all right?

Excuse me... dance?

Hey there, do you wanna get down?

I was thinking

maybe you and me could boogie to this tune.

No. Waiter!

It's hot, isn't it?

- Why don't we get it on? - No.

Okay... no then.

Hey, you're wife's getting dry humped.

Stop it, Alfredo. M�ximo is a gentleman.

Yeah. And Dracula was a count.

You're jealous!

Of a hustler who thinks he's a movie star?

I know you liked him.

Who, me?

You two danced seven songs in a row.

You even tried to slow dance to the mambo.

Let's see... do you have children?

No.

You've wanted one since when?

- Six years... - Six months...

I'll need a sample of your sperm.

Mine?

Oh, no, no...

I only came here to accompany her.

Sister, please!

Carmen, my love, I've got a great idea

for a long movie.

Title: "Torremolinos 73"...

What do you think?

Let me tell you about it... it's about a millionaire widow,

with lots of money,

who goes to Torremolinos after her husband dies.

She can't get him out of her mind

and she doesn't know how to get over him...

BY ALFREDO LOPEZ

Hello?

Dr. Regulez's office calling. We have the results.

ALFREDO LOPEZ SPERM COUNT:

ZERO

Please, Carmen. Could you turn it down?

Carmen, turn it down!

Fuck, Carmen! For Christ's sake!

- Did you hurt yourself? - No.

- What's wrong with you, Carmen? - Nothing.

- Something's wrong with you. - No.

- Please tell me. - No.

Tell me what's wrong with you. Please, what's wrong?

We can't have children.

I told you it couldn't be me.

Carmencita...

I'm sorry, my love.

They said the same to Nicasia and Martin

and they had triplets.

You know doctors make mistakes.

Look at your cousin El Chato.

They cut off his good leg instead of the bad one.

- What a shame! - It happens all the time...

What if...

we adopt a child?

- Really? - Sure.

Oh, Alfredo!

All right my love, come on, calm down.

How is your script going?

Good, very good.

- Do you want to read it? - Later.

There are things I don't understand... but I like it.

Really?

I wrote the role of Marga for you.

No!

Yes!

When you finish it, what then?

I don't know.

Excuse me.

Sorry... sorry.

Excuse me,

could you give this to Don Carlos?

What's this?

Whatever.

I'll give it to him.

Thank you.

To adopt a child there are two prerequisites.

First, an annual income over 500,000 pesetas.

And second, clean and decent morals,

without any criminal record of course...

After an in-depth investigation of each candidate couple,

the Juvenile Court makes a decision.

- Hello. What's your name? - Pedro Luis, get back into line.

I just adore them. How long does it take

for the Juvenile Court to make a decision?

Not long, four to five years.

Did you know that the movie "Don't Trust Your 5th Floor Neighbor"

has made 1 00 million pesetas in Spain

and it cost only six million...?

"The Green Starts in the Pyrenees" has made 70 million

since it opened.

Movies...

Alfredo, movies could be a great business.

Because of the great performance of our audiovisual division,

I've created Montoya Films.

The idea is to make other types of movies...

like "Torremolinos 73".

I like it, Alfredo,

considering the source, it has the flavor...

It reminds me of Bergman's first movies.

Let's see.

How would you like to direct "Torremolinos 73"?

35 millimeter, a professional crew...

Don Carlos, don't put me on.

M�ximo Valverde wants to do it.

M�ximo?

He would like Carmen to be his co-star.

We're only amateurs...

Amateurs with talent.

Shoot it. You're gonna miss it! Cojones!

Where would you like the premiere?

Good shot.

- Did I hit it? - Bull's-eye.

You don't have to worry about anything.

You direct. That's your thing.

I'll be in charge of the production.

It'll be delicious in a stew.

Where did everybody go?

Anywhere but here.

Come on, it's February and you're on the coast.

Sorry if I'm nosy, but why did you come to Torremolinos?

- We're going to make a movie. - You're kidding. Who's in it?

M�ximo Valverde and Carmen Garc�a.

That Carmen, I don't know her but her name sounds familiar.

What's it about?

An attractive millionaire widow decides to stay a few days

in Torremolinos at the hotel where she spent her honeymoon.

In the hotel she meets a mysterious man

who looks just like her dead husband.

I only like movies where Bud Spencer and Terence Hill

beat each other up - ping, pang! Those are good!

The best!

What about you? What are you doing in the movie?

I'm... the director.

Oh, god.

Good evening!

How are you, Carmen?

- Alfredo... - What's up?

- Nice trip? - Very nice, thanks.

Come with me. The boys are anxious to meet you.

Carmen, do you mind?

Carmen, I'll be back in five minutes. Honey, it's the crew...

Look Alfredo, this is Lauritz, the director of photography.

A pleasure.

His assistant, Ole.

A pleasure.

This is Aksel on sound.

And finally, Magnus.

A pleasure.

Carmen, Carmen, is she...

Where Carmen? Carmen!

At the reception desk.

Hi, Alfredo.

Juan Luis. What are you doing here?

Well, here to lend a helping hand.

- What happened to you? - Oh, this?

I fell off a horse.

Thanks.

Here they are. Aren't they great?

Could we speak in private?

It's not necessary, none of them speak Spanish. Tell me.

Then how am I going to explain what I want to do?

Don't worry, they're professionals and they know what to do.

But...

As long as you say "Action" and "Cut", they'll do the rest.

I'm not sure...

That's how co-productions work. Believe me.

What would you like, sir?

- Have a drink. Take it easy. - Nothing, nothing. Thank you.

What about M�ximo Valverde?

We have a little problem.

This morning I received a phone call from his manager,

and he said he's doing Pedro Lazaga's next movie.

He doesn't want to work with beginners...

You know how artists are.

What are we going to do?

We have two options. We cancel the shoot...

No.

Or we look for another actor.

Who?

I thought about Magnus.

- Who? - Magnus.

This is all Torremolinos.

I think he'd be suitable.

Slowly, Carmen. There!

You're alone in the hotel, all right?

But I'm scared!

It's good for the character. Feel the fear, feel it.

We're going to start. Carmen, that's it. Get into position.

Camera!

Now?

Do I jump in now?

Action.

Young lady, you remind me

of the Greek beauties

who dwelled in ancient Olympus.

Your visage is familiar.

Your mysterious presence fascinates and frightens me

at the same time.

Who sent you?

That matters not.

I am here and now.

Do you believe in

a superior and omnipresent being?

Listen to the silence.

It is the kiss of death.

Cut!

One moment, please.

No, Juan Luis,

tell him to pick the carafe, not the mussel.

But, but I've already told him.

Not the mussel, the carafe! Cojones! The carafe.

When Magnus...

picks up the carafe...

Alfredo, they're eating the set!

Panoramic shot... Carmen...

Hey, I'm to delicate

for all this stress. Alfredo!

I don't want to! Cojones! You're a pain in the ass.

Hey Juan Luis, this is a disaster!

I'm exhausted my love...

Hey, I don't know who that Magnus thinks he is.

I have to repeat everything a hundred times.

Poor thing, he tries his best. He had to learn his lines by ear.

Carmen, please. I say he's a phony.

Hey, you talk a lot about Magnus, but what about me?

Anyone would think I wasn't in the movie.

Oh silly!

Come on, now the other foot. That's it. That's it.

That's it. That's it.

What did they tell you at the orphanage?

You haven't even mentioned it.

Alfredo, do you think you could love a child that wasn't yours?

Of course.

What did Don Carlos say?

Nothing.

You are frightened.

Something is struggling inside you.

You have an endless desire for desire.

You never get enough.

Good work, boys! Very good work!

A wonderful, wonderful day.

Tell them that tomorrow

is the end of the movie and the last scene.

The end.

What is he saying?

Fiesta, yes, yes... but tomorrow, okay?

Otherwise you'll go and get plastered. See you tomorrow!

Tonight big bullfight, matador!

I'm no fucking fairy.

- See you tomorrow. - Yes, yes.

Carmen...

You've been fantastic.

You mean it, my love?

- Excuse me. - Yes?

Can we meet at the bar?

I want to discuss a few small changes

in tomorrow's shooting schedule.

Sure, Don Carlos.

Well then, I'm going upstairs. I'm not feeling well.

- You're not? - No.

I'm very proud of you, my director.

- Bye. - I'll be up in five minutes.

Congratulations, Alfredo. The shoot is a great success.

- I think we've got a winner here. - Thanks.

With your permission, I made a few script changes...

As you can see, the dialogue is the same.

I only changed the action in the last scene.

This isn't what we agreed.

You didn't say anything about this...

About what? What did I say?

That you were going to direct "Torremolinos 73".

Well, you're doing it.

We're shooting in black and white as you wanted.

Don't be naive. Alfredo...

If we didn't spice up the movie

with some sex

and make a version for the international market,

do you think I'd get my money back?

- What about M�ximo Valverde...? - What M�ximo?

Carmen is the star.

She's become a sex symbol in Scandinavia...

- Did you know? - No.

Besides, if you'll notice,

the script required only a few insignificant changes.

Your script!

All right?

Now you go and rest.

Tomorrow at seven o'clock in the cafe.

Alfredo,

get in the water!

Do you know how to say

underpants in Danish or Swedish?

Come on, smartasses! Sissy, you nancy boy...

Skivvie-navian!

Good day, Alfredo.

I enjoy really work with you

and Carmen.

Tomorrow big day for me.

What?

No, no, no...

Shit...

Yes?

All ready?

Thank you.

Carmen.

Carmen?

When did you get back? I was worried.

Carmen, listen to me.

Madam, something else?

Cakes, pies, pastry, rolls,

donuts, danish...

No. Nothing, thank you.

And you, sir?

Nothing, thank you.

If you sit you must order something.

With all these empty tables?

Complain to the manager. Those are the rules.

You can stick the rules up your...

- Sorry, but I wasn't rude. - Just leave, please?

Bring him some coffee.

You don't look well, Alfredo.

We're going back to Madrid.

Pack up your things. We're leaving.

Don Carlos has made some changes in the script

that you're not going to like.

These?

Yes.

Why do you have them?

Because... because I'm going to do it.

What?

What are you talking about? Are you crazy?

You want to finish your movie...

and I want to have a baby...

What?

I want to have a baby.

You can't have children.

Yes I can.

Let's go!

Good morning, how are you doing?

We're going back to Madrid. Sorry. We quit.

You're going back? Why? You want more money?

No.

Then what?

Carmen, I kept my promise.

Your husband is finishing the movie

and now it's your turn. All right?

Alfredo, I called Erik. It's understandable

- that you don't want to do it. - Good. We're leaving.

Hey! It'll be thirty pesetas.

Leave me alone! You see we're talking?

- You're leaving without paying! - Here.

- Fine, I'll bring you the change. - No. Keep it.

Carmen!

Carmen!

Carmen!

Carmen!

Carmen!

Carmen!

Alfredo!

Carmen undresses,

Marcus too...

and they both face each other... naked.

What this camera for?

For the close-up... the money shot.

This is going to look like this, all right?

Yes.

Carmen, we have to start!

Carmen,

when I say "Action" you go to Magnus and say the lines.

When Magnus says: "I am Death

and I have come to take you with your husband",

stop whatever you're doing

and let him do what he has to do.

Do you understand?

Okay, let's go!

Everybody in position.

Sound!

Camera!

Action!

Marga...

Marga, Marga...

I thought we'd never see each other again.

It's destiny.

You're not real. You're a specter...

You exist only in my imagination. Keep away from me!

You're sublime.

You are metaphysical sin,

the temptation beyond the grave.

I can no longer resist.

I am Death and I have come to take you

with your husband.

I am Death...

and I have come to take you with your husband.

I am...

Cut.

Action.

Maruja,

I love you more than yesterday but less than tomorrow.

That's the most beautiful thing I ever heard.

Cut, cut, cut.

You need to be more natural. You're stiff.

That was the seventh take.

Come on, here we go again.

Come on, hurry up...

You have to cut the wedding cake.

We've got to go!

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Your mommy and dad wish

Happy birthday to you

Who blew out the candles?

Marisol, darling, you have to wait

until daddy says "Action"!

Alfredo, she's just a little girl.

Shirley Temple was a little girl too.

Wait until I say "Action", okay?

Come on, blow them out! Blow!

Action!

Blow!

Well done!

- Okay. - Look!

Cut!

Look! Look!
