Fosca!

Wake up!

Mr. Fosca!

What are you playing, Mr. Fosca?!

My patience has run thin, Mr. Fosca!

Have I been nursing a viper in my own bosom

so that you could play serenades?

I'm kicking you on your sorry arse, Mr. Fosca!

You might be fit for the opera, but not for the cinema!

My name is Yemilianov.

I'm a Russian envoy.

If I'm not mistaken, you've just lost your job.

That's nothing.

I just... sometimes...

tara-rara... and...

Mrs. Szczebieniew,

whose attention you've attracted with your music,

has requested that I...

Mrs. Sz....

Mrs. Szcz....?

I don't accept charity.

Is that so?

You'll never be able to understand any sensitive feelings.

You are an artist and a gentleman...

Would you be so kind...

and teach me how to play your instrument?

Teach you?

Mrs. Szczebieniew is bored in Rome.

Quiet!

Could we start

tonight?

Allow me to remind you

that tonight you are entertaining guests.

Guests...

The guests won't mind.

And this is Mr. Szczebieniew.

Zinaida Pietrovna's husband.

There you go.

Now you can give me a lesson.

Now?

Here?

With everyone present?

Are you afraid?

Me?

Afraid of what?

Call a doctor!

Do you waltz?

You're crying?

Never.

Are you trying to buy him?

Get out of here this minute!

Your winnings?

Please forgive me.

Please forgive us all.

I don't need this money.

Leave.

Go round the house.

By the terrace.

Wait.

It's my first time...

I...

I haven't, either...

You are beautiful.

You are like

a fairy-tale knight

proud

shining

You are like a young

peacock

little peacock

pavoncello!

I didn't know it would be

that it would be... so...

I did.

If you like,

we'll run away!

You'll stay with me.

I'm not

rich, but...

You don't have to...

- Who's there? - It's just me.

- May I come in? - No.

Why not, my angel?

- I've got a migraine. - Again, my angel?

Perhaps... perhaps I could give you a massage

like last week, remember?

- I remember. - It helped, then...

- Today it wouldn't. - I see...

In that case, good night, my angel.

Now I'm in his hand...

He just needs to close his fist...

Why?

My whole family is in his debt.

My father, sisters...

my mother...

Young man!

Mrs. Szczebieniew is an exceptionally beautiful woman.

I congratulate you.

You are drunk.

The slave did his job.

The slave may leave.

Do you recognize these cards?

Go ahead. Pick one.

Go ahead!

Ace of clubs.

Queen of hearts.

Nine of diamonds.

Eight of spades.

Jack of spades.

Mrs. Szczebieniew is an exceptionally beautiful woman.

But Mr. Szczebieniew is a very wealthy man.

He married her for her beauty.

She married him for his money.

Why are you telling me this?

Mrs. Szczebieniew's family is...

was...

in great financial difficulties.

On their wedding day, they signed sort of an agreement.

Mr. Szczebieniew provided the money

on the condition that Mrs. Szczebieniew

gives him an heir.

As you could see for yourself, Mr. Szczebieniew

is a sick man.

They decided to spend their honeymoon in Italy

in order to fulfill the terms

- of the contract. - Quiet!

Do you think, you fool,

that he will let her get attached to a single lover?

You are jealous.

Jealous!

All this...

She is lost.

Don't think

she is going to accept the likes of you

for long.

She has tasted...

Savored...

She became a woman.

Shots from the Polish film Bestia (1917) were used in the opening scenes.
