A Shiver of Pleasure

A toast to Renzo and Lucia!

Make these kids happy!
Stand up and say a few words!

Another radiant day.

Another blessed day.

That's right, my children.

A blessing for you,
for a pure and beautiful love.

A blessing for Renzo and Lucia.
Are you also ready to fight?

Sure, because love is also war.
It's written in the Bible.

You're ready to fill your lives
with joy and happiness.

Remember these moments forever.

This happy day for you and all of us!

You've found Heaven, it's here on Earth.
Renzo with Lucia, Lucia with Renzo.

This wine I've stored away
for so many years...

I offer it to you on the happiest
day of your lives!

Once upon a time,
at the start of a beautiful fairy tale.

His name was Renzo,
her name was Lucia.

Under a sky still immune to the
stench of industry...

They decided to love each other forever.
To stay together, to be husband and wife.

They were immediately convinced
that happiness exists.

And that in their case
it could only be eternal.

It made sense for them
to think like that.

They still don't know what
it was like to live on Earth.

What are you thinking about?

About that thing?

I think about it too, you know?

Your heart's beating so loudly.

- What will this Mr. Ortenzi be like?
- A real gentleman for sure.

- Please.
- Thank you.

To you two, with my best wishes
for the happiest day of your lives.

Cheers.

You're the 50th newlywed couple to come
here, so that deserves another toast.

I'm sure it will bring you luck.
You deserve it.

- You're so young, so in love.
- You're too kind.

We're off to a good start.
You'll like it here.

To your happiness.

Darling, not all at once!

You still haven't asked me why I rent out
my villa to couples on their honeymoon.

It's usually the first thing they ask.
Aren't you curious?

- It's an idea, right?
- We knew it was a great idea.

It was a sporting goods salesman
who told my cousin about you.

And so...

Yes, it was in May and we figured
it would be much better than a hotel.

Thanks.

Like this forever, for eternity,
for your entire life.

The world today is full of loneliness
and hypocrisy

Lonely people gripped by sadness
and crushed by rejection.

People who walk, who stop at
traffic lights, who cross roads.

Who wait at home for night to come.

Millions of subjects deprived
of their identity, of their joy of life.

Of their desire to rebel, of their
courage to speak, to move, to sing.

Hell is the emptiness produced
by separation.

And the anguish of lovers who are side
by side yet are not together.

Love has become a sordid adventure.

Our civilisation doesn't seem
to recognise any other satisfaction...

except to degrade everything.

It wasn't enough to imprison the freedom
to love in a marriage contract.

Except to let him out at a set time
for the necessity of adultery.

It's not content with jealousy
and lies to poison the passion.

It's even managed to separate lovers
in the moment of their embrace.

Can we still imagine what society
would be like without neurosis?

A world that isn't in a state
of permanent crisis?

It would be an endless party.
The only guiding law would be pleasure.

A trip towards the reality of pleasure.
Towards freedom.

Who cares what the source is
as long as the water flows.

Elizabeth!

Elizabeth!

- Your pyjamas.
- Thanks.

You hear that?
He even thought of music.

The best champagne,
and all at just the right moment.

He's a real gentleman.
Someone who's lived life.

We got really lucky.

Sure, all these fancy things
are important...

But if you ask me, in a moment like this
it won't hurt to keep it simple.

Come on, Lucia.
Undress.

There's no need to be afraid.

Well?

I'm not afraid.

I've been thinking about it all day
and now my heart's beating real fast.

Like it's about to explode.

It's the first time we've been alone.

All done.

You'll always love me, right?
You'll love me as much as I love you?

Of course.

Renzo.

It's my first time.

- You've done it before, right?
- It's not the same thing for a man.

It's your feelings that matter,
not mine.

So you've done it before?

Thanks.

- I'll be waiting.
- Yes.

What a sweetheart.

My Lucia.

She's so simple.
A marvellous young woman.

I thought it would all be so easy,
but it feels like my first time as well.

Damn it, I really don't know how
I'm supposed to behave.

Now she's the one getting ready
and what do I do?

Yes! My suitcase!
My cologne.

Will you be gentle?

You won't hurt me, right?

Don't speak, my love.

Don't worry.
Relax.

Don't say a word.

My darling.

Please, go slowly.

Yes, my love.

You're marvellous.

I'll put your bags here
by the other girls' things.

Okay.

Just a moment, dear.
I'll be right back.

Come on, Laura, stop it.

No, that's enough.
I'm not doing it anymore.

It's a job, isn't it?
You've got to please the client.

Okay, my dear,
what exactly are you up to?

No one's come looking for you.
You came here of your own free will.

And now perhaps you're
starting to regret it.

I don't have time to waste
so listen carefully.

I don't care about you
and I'll never ask you why you do it.

That's your problem
and none of my business.

But I'm not here to satisfy your
whims or your inhibitions.

I think you're old enough to know
what you're doing, right?

So if you want to work here
you're more than welcome.

You'll like it here
but you must respect the rules.

And those are my rules, understood?

And you accepted them, right?

If you want to leave, feel free.
There's the door.

But don't ever come back.
I don't want to see you here again.

Or if you haven't changed your mind,
stay here with us.

Yes.
Yes, I'll stay.

- Do you want to start today?
- No, tomorrow.

Okay.
As you wish, mysterious lady.

But you must be punctual.
Is three okay?

Most of all, remember,
you must always come every day.

The music's playing again.
Then it isn't a dream, it's real music.

He's like a sort of director who
knows every detail of the scene.

Right, this thing about doing everything
at the right moment seems very strange.

I love you.
I couldn't live without you.

I love you too.

Darling.

- How's it going?
- Great, thanks.

There's no need to say a word,
I just need to look at your face.

- It's a beautiful day.
- Please, sit down.

- Here, next to each other.
- Thanks.

First of all I'd recommend this
white wine from Galizia.

I'm sure Antonio's prepared
something exceptional.

Go ahead and serve.

Now it's our turn to toast your
wonderful hospitality.

With pleasure.

- What is it?
- This dish is called astaco alla sibarita.

Gently fry the lobster in butter in a pan
and it collects the flavour.

Occasionally adding some champagne.

Lobster is considered an aphrodisiac.

There's a reason why Roman emperors
consumed them voraciously.

Tiberius especially.

She wanted to create a lover identical
to the image of her husband.

You look like my double.

Did she give you this robe?

You must have bought them together.

When?
Three years ago?

It's sick.
How disgusting.

She taught you to drink the same
whisky, and you never drink.

Or did she insist you always kept
a bottle of this brand?

The one I like.

Another sign of the mental chaos...

she splashed happily around.
Like a fly on a pile of shit.

Cheers for the company.
Ten years with me...

and almost the same amount with you.

All taken up stuffing this puppet,
this manequin, with which...

she could play out this sordid
pointless romance.

How dare you say that?
What kind of man are you?

You'd ruined her life.

You disappointed her from day one.

You oppressed her for all these years.

With your vulgarity, your selfishness,
your pettiness.

You're the one who's really responsible.

Remember that, it's your fault
if she killed herself.

I can't breathe.

I feel like I'm turning to ash.

Me, I'm the oppressed one.
It's my life that's been crushed.

Mine, not hers.

Yes, we were made for each others.
Two animals suited to the shade.

Silent and devious like bulls.
But it's all over now.

And perhaps it's pointless remembering.
It's not worth the trouble.

You're not worth it.

You could have at least had the
decency to vacate the room.

But perhaps it's grown on you?

Listen, could I get some information
about the apartment?

I saw the sign downstairs,
can I view it?

Yes, there's one with three rooms.
The bathroom's old but works okay.

Then there's one that could do
with a clean, if you're interested?

- I'm interested, how much?
- 70,000 lira.

It's a bargain because the gentleman
who took it last month is leaving.

Because his wife died.
Why don't you go up and see him?

Interested in the apartment?

Look over there!

- The lady isn't used to the sea.
- No.

But when you get to know it well,
it's simply enchanting.

And it's also a good friend.

A partner you can also confide
all your secrets in, if you have any.

The net's stuck!

Excuse me for a moment.

Renzo.

Good morning, darling.
Good morning, my love.

We're already old, you know?

Havent you noticed fifty years
have passed?

We spent them doing horribly
marvellous things, remember?

And now we're two old decrepit lovers.
Look at me!

We haven't got much time left.
We'll be 100 soon.

Come on, wake up.

Don't be naughty.

I did it!

- Shall I prepare a cold breakfast?
- Perfect.

You'll see, they'll get up
at around four or five.

It's certainly not the time
for a proper lunch.

Especially in their condition.

So cold things are ideal.
Something light, appetising.

You could make that pie with
watermelon, melon and eggnog.

I think that will go down well.

I'm your mother
and this concerns me too.

I've tried in every way to stop
this foolishness.

She's a depraved, dirty, woman.
She's not right for you.

You've had a different upbringing.
Don't you get it?

You've put yourself in a situation
you won't be able to control.

You're jealous.
No one's good enough for you.

You've never let me grow up.

Me and Elizabeth love each other.
She's much better than you!

In every way.

You are what you are,
but you're my only son.

And I must defend you,
even against your will.

I find it hard to believe you're
a man like all the rest.

Even if I doubt that many are.

Your father, for example,
he wasn't.

Sometimes, like now, I hate you.

Coming from someone like you,
it doesn't frighten me.

- Are you coming back as well?
- No, I'm waiting for Elizabeth.

Elizabeth!

My darling.

You're marvellous.

What's happened to us?

So much happiness.
It's a marvellous sensation.

You know I love you.
Really.

- I love you so much.
- It's beautiful.

Good morning.

Well?
Alive and well?

- Care for a swim?
- I can't swim.

There's a life vest.

Put this on.

I'll try.

- It's so cold!
- We'll help you get in.

I'll show you!

Do you have any plans for this evening?

I don't know!
I have to drown him first!

Enough, it's too cold.

No, not that!

- Mum, I got my grades!
- Let's see.

Let's see if you've studied.

6 for geography,
4 maths, 6 in gymnastics.

You've done really well.

What a beautiful little girl.

That man's always frightened me as well.

What would you know?

What can you know?

I told him I'm paying tonight.
It's our duty, don't you think?

It's seems fair to me,
but let's hope we don't spend too much.

What do you think I should wear?
Why are you looking at me like that?

It's not right now that I'm your wife.
Besides, you make me blush.

Come in.

You're still in bed?
We have to be at the Clementi's by nine.

I don't feel very well.

Don't worry, Elena,
I'll call them to explain this delay, okay?

Piero, you must forgive me.
You're so kind, dear.

I love you and I need you.

I want to be closer to you
every passing day.

- I can't imagine my life without you.
- Me neither.

I also can't imagine my life without you.

It's madness, all the women throwing
themselves at him, and him there.

And too worried about
a woman's virginity.

There's nothing to say.
What a temperament, such strength.

So you forget all his flaws.
Who gives a damn?

All of them.
Really, all of them.

It was an unforgettable experience.

Yes, I like it.
Yes.

Please.

Simona!

Stop!

I want to marry you!

What an asshole.

Dear Mother, it's all gone far better
than I could have hoped.

I'm happy and so is Renzo.

We've had such an unforgettable time.

You were right, a honeymoon
is like a beautiful dream.

And I swear I'm a bit afraid
to come back to reality.

I've become a woman.
A happy woman.

You know, there were moments
when I missed you and Dad.

I missed the smells and the
sounds of home.

You waking me with a kiss
and him grumbling all the time.

Renzo's a sleepyhead too,
they're the same.

I have another life now
with lots of responsibilities.

But I need everything you've
taught me now.

Like your example as a model woman,
as an important wife and mother.

Your Lucia.

A kiss for Daddy as well.

- It's you, you're late.
- I got held up.

Come in.

You're very beautiful today.

Yes, really beautiful.

Nothing.
What were you thinking?

You see I'm right?
You're jealous.

- I got it wrong.
- Stop it.

- Okay.
- Swear!

- I like it here.
- They're nice people.

- Listen, why don't we dance?
- Because I can't dance.

- You can always learn.
- I wouldn't know where to start.

- Then I'll teach you.
- Do you want to dance with me?

- May I?
- Okay.

- I'd call it a success.
- Join us.

- Is the lady enjoying herself?
- It looks like it.

They're just kids, it's their time.

And so it should be.

You need someone like me.

Can I see you tomorrow?

A party with so many youngsters
is always fun.

It's a new brand of champagne.
I hope you like it.

- It's a real rarity.
- I'm here!

I'm here to toast the Italian male.
Cheers.

To the Italian male!

- What's wrong?
- Nothing, absolutely nothing.

Well, girls?
Do you like my idea?

Come on, girls, go upstairs!

Go on, hurry up.

May I have the pleasure of dancing
with the most beautiful bride?

Will you help me?

- What a man!
- I think you're missing something!

We're so crazy!

Long live the newlyweds!

Thank you!

'Ubi tu Gaius, ibi ego Gaia'
United forever, for eternity.

At the entrance to Lido dei Pini
turn left.

Towards via dei Platini.

And continue until the end of the road.

Keep going straight for
another 150 metres.

Then the road ends right
at the entrance to the villa.

- Renzo!
- What's wrong?

- My love.
- I had a horrible nightmare!

It was crazy!
I'm scared!

Calm down.
I'll protect you.

I'm scared!

Is that you, Lucia?

It's me, Ortenzi, I wanted
to speak to you for a moment.

No, please don't hang up.
There's no harm in us having a chat.

Don't you think?

You look good with short hair.

I love the colour as well.
It suits you.

Thanks, dear.

I think you've changed a bit
since we moved to the city.

You're much more vain.

But I haven't changed inside.

Well if that's the case.

That's what matters to me.

Okay, I'll get the bus here.

Let's hope it gets here soon
or I'll be late.

- What are you doing?
- I'm going to grandma's then home.

I'll see you later.

- You're late.
- I went with my husband to the bus stop.

I was worried.

Not only that,
but the battery was completely flat.

If something could still fall...

What surprised me was the effect of
continuing to remain erect like a hammer.

It had completely lost the aspect
of a sexual aberration.
