SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER

TODAY

Hello.

It started half an hour ago...

Thank you, sir.

Those assholes! They smashed my kidneys!

Thank you, sir.

I don't live too far.

These people...

You know...

They're from a bad race.

Thank God there�re decent people like you.

Come in, sir.

Put the bags over there, please.

This is for you.

It expired last year, but it still tastes good.

I like it very much. Pepi likes it too.

It's a color TV.

I have it...

because I'm an Air Force officer's widow.

The President of the Republic...

is about to sign the decree...

giving "la Cuenca", our charming typical dance...

the status of national dance.

She really seems to like you.

Did you know that General Pinochet has blue eyes?

No, I didn't know.

Strange!

With so many Mapuches Indians...

It's strange.

At the avenue, with more than half of the race still to go...

they had 150 yards of advantage over the others.

Only Prese�o tried to unsuccessfully reach them.

The small difference between Cornico and Ramirez was kept until the end.

Now get ready.

To the side.

Up...

To the other side.

Look!

Pauli. Look at me.

Where were you?

I was waiting for you.

I'm nice and fresh.

I'm all clean.

Make them shine, Ra�l!

Hey Goyo, you've become quite the dancer! Your moves are so smooth.

You're late.

What?

From the beginning.

Side.

Other side.

Free style.

Again!

- What happened? - Goyo, you think you're the best.

No, he just doesn't like this.

He prefers other things, different things.

Things that are more profound, like folklore.

- That's right. - Of course.

How do you call it. Roots...

Right, Goyo? I mean... right, comrade Goyo?

What's the problem? I like both.

We're all together in this!

"All together"! Shut up, communist!

We're here to work.

This is our job.

You know that very well. You have to start doing the show properly,

professionally. We need an audience.

You should go to the movies...

see Tony.

He knows.

I would like to see Ra�l with the new suit.

He hasn't put it on yet?

It would be cool.

- It would be great! - Put it on.

Put it on! Put it on! Put it on! Put it on!

I'll wear it on Saturday.

Are you OK? This floor is rotten.

Just stand where you're supposed to...

What are you doing, Ra�l? What's going on?

What's going on? Stop it!

- You are killing my business! - It's all fucked!

Stop it, bastard!

- Stop! - Leave me alone!

We can hardly pay the bills and you are ruining the floor!

- Stop it! - Shut up, son of a bitch.

This whole thing sucks! Give me my jacket!

- Give me that! - Son of a bitch.

You're the bitch.

Fucking floor.

Touch it, touch it.

This is cathedral- type glass.

And this one is opaque.

We have delivery service...

- Really? - With the light blue American Ford.

Are you two together?

It's too thick.

What?

It's to dance on. It has to be firm.

I think you need this, of course.

Is high density glass.

How big is the floor?

It would cost 74,285 pesos.

How much?

74,285. It's imported.

I can make you a deal...

But without delivery.

We're going to check out other stores.

And maybe we�ll...

come back this afternoon,

with the money.

Thanks.

She's nice.

We are back with the "One O'clock Festival"

Friends, soon we're going to begin the Chuck Norris final

Chuck Norris'look-alike...

And now I invite all the disco dancers...

Attention to all fans of the American dancer...

What's going on?

Don't take it away.

He's going to watch it alone.

It's not a good image.

Must be the antenna.

What? The floor?

Come here.

Tell me, what's it for?

To light the floor from below.

This is what you need.

- What's that? - High Density.

I should have enough,

but the TV is not enough.

- It's a color TV. - Yes, but this glass is very expensive.

I'll give you 20 for the TV.

What's the matter?

Things cost what they cost, not what you want them.

And I say what the price is, not you.

Hey kid, watch out!

What are you up to?

I don't like shady things...

Don't worry, Mrs. Wilma,

we're just transporting the pieces of the new floor.

- What's it for? - For the effect.

Where is the hair dye?

The hair dye.

- Yes, wait. Do you want some help? - What for?

The hair dye?

Yeah, the hair dye.

It must be in the bedroom.

Where?

- In the bathroom. - Is it in the bedroom or in the bathroom?

- I think I saw it in the bedroom. - Where?

Over there.

In the bedroom?

No, it's in the bathroom.

Hey, come over here.

But your color looks fine.

Right, probably in the bathroom.

These people don't think

about the future.

What future?

Your future...

my future, their future.

They don't think.

But I know we'll make it with the show.

I know it.

- But we have to get out of here. - Why?

Just because. Just the two of us.

After all, Pauli is a grown up now.

She's an adult.

- But we have to do it quickly. - Why?

Because time is passing. Tony Manero, from the movie.

Will never get old, but you will be an old guy.

You're lifeless.

You can't even get a hard-on.

It gets swollen, but not hard.

The glass floor is the only thing that turns you on.

You're such a fool. He's an American.

You're not. You belong here,

like the rest of us. We all live in the same neighborhood.

Not anymore.

Not anymore.

What about me?

Tomorrow, I get my red dress, like the one from the film.

- It's white. - It's red.

You can see it in the poster.

It isn't white.

Go see the movie again.

Will you come with me?

You're old enough. Go by yourself.

You know what?

You and I are exactly the same.

My suit is ready.

The waist is a bit tight, but I'm going to fix it.

It's really nice.

It's the same. White suit,

black shirt,

the pants with one button.

Are you taking your suit for a walk?

What do you mean,"one button"?

There are two buttons.

It's one button.

Two buttons.

One.

I'm telling you there're two buttons.

One is above the zipper, one.

Beautiful.

- Have you tried it on? - There's a button missing,

but it looks the same.

Try it on to see how it looks.

Try it with the music and everything.

You're gonna pay for it, asshole! Every last penny.

Don't move!

Don't move or I'll shoot!

Freeze, motherfucker!

Stay where you are, asshole!

- Let's see what he has. - Guess what.

- What's your name? Answer me! - He wants to know your name.

- Where did you get it? - I was just going home.

- What's your name? - I was just going home.

- Tell me your name! - My name's Jos�.

- Where do you live? - Here on the other side.

OK, relax, you're coming with us. It's part of the procedure.

- Who's your contact? - Gregorio.

- What's his nickname? - Goyo.

KIDNAPPING, TORTURE, ARRESTS = PINOCHET GET OUT PINOCHET!

Are you going to rehearse?

It's strange to rehearse without you, since we follow you.

You're our reference.

But it's possible.

It's impossible, if he's not in front.

- It's possible. - It's too difficult.

You know, this part was created by Goyo,

but if you want, we can take it out.

It would be better if it was just you and me.

- What did you say? - It would be better just us.

- Speak louder! - Nothing, I was just saying...

we should do Ra�l's choreography.

I mean... we're not going to do the steps

you created.

Are you alone?

You and Ra�l alone?

Is that what you want? What difference does it make?

What about me, Mom?

You and Ra�l alone... What about us? We just watch?

Do you speak English?

Look, I've been thinking...

Where?

Away.

Far from here.

Without the other two whores.

I think you can see the difference between me and them.

Can't you?

What's with that face?

I really love you.

Once the film is out of fashion, you think they'll still follow you?

No way.

It's not fashion.

How many times have I told you not to play ball her? Stop it.

We need that mirror for the show!

Here's a piece for you.

That's it.

I'm going to glue it like this.

Go and help your mother.

I want to see you Saturday on your stupid glass floor!

There'll be an audience, so you better be there!

Pauli...

Oh my God!

Where have you been?

Downtown.

- But... how? - I walked,

there weren't any buses.

Goyo is helping people cross the streets.

Everything is flooded.

- The army is doing nothing. - What do you mean?

Show some respect.

Things are finally working in this country!

Everything is working. I'll get a bigger towel.

- What happened to you? - I walked home in the rain.

- What are you doing? - Wilma went for a towel.

- You look like a whore, all naked! - But, mom...

Cover yourself!

Put some clothes on!

Hurry up!

It looks good on me.

Go inside!

Go inside.

SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER

"Fever"?

It's not showing.

There's another film with the same gentleman.

- You can go on in. - Thank you.

It's not my fault.

- Hi. Excuse me. - Can I turn the radio down a bit?

We...

put together something to show you.

If you like it, you can add it to the show.

I'm gonna turn this off.

Go ahead.

Repeat, Pauli!

But that's not in the movie.

We'd like to add it to the choreography.

What are you doing?

None of your business.

What a jerk!

Is there Chilean music in the show?

No, it's international.

Want some?

Move it, you little shits!

Look, Ra�l.

This is my capital.

The money you gave me is your capital.

Well, you know, it's not easy.

Prices went up, OK?

You'll have to take fewer glass bricks for the same money.

You can take...

eighteen.

And you carry them.

Should I open the gate?

You're going to need more.

- Is Goyo outside? - Yes.

- Did you bring the potatoes? - Shut up.

Help us.

- Did you get the flyers? - I got them!

Stay calm! Stay calm!

Wilma is inside...

I saw her.

You're still at it?

- What is that? - Potatoes.

I told you to bring onions.

I brought potatoes also.

What are you up to?

Helping.

I know what you're doing. I'm not like Wilma.

I've told you to stay out of that shit!

Don't get the wrong idea, Mom.

- Listen to me. - What?

Stop putting ideas into my daughter's head.

- She's a grown up. - She's doing what she should be doing.

- Yeah, right. - Where's the problem?

- What's going on? - Nothing.

How come?

Hey, do you have a few bones?

Look...

- I have a Seiko myself. - But this one is new.

Why are you wearing that outfit?

Side B.

I only see side 1 or 2.

Side 2 is side B.

What about your white costume?

- Forget it. - You said you'd wear it!

- It's missing a button. - So what?

Stop the chatting! Hurry up, you're on soon.

We're going on stage

and we're going to dance better than ever.

Like a real family. United.

Because today, life is giving us a chance.

- A chance to stand out. - Shut up, Goyo!

You sound like a priest!

Please welcome the best dancer: Our one and only Tony Manero

with his troop!

It's crowded!

Listen the applause!

There wasn't enough fish for everybody.

And there won't be enough wine for those two.

Stop drinking and start cleaning up!

- You drank it all! - Leave me alone.

Sir,

in a half an hour it's curfew, so we're closing.

We're not gonna waiting for the others signs?

- No signs, we are closed. - Yes?

You'd better go home before the army finds you.

- Don't you want to eat something? - No, only Fanta.

What are you looking at?

A bird that shits in its nest, is a bird of bad omen.

Sing!

Is it too late to dream

So many times I've said

Be quiet, please Do not go on

Because our ship has sunk

I shared my bed with you

I gave you my young body

The one I've taken good care of

You had to destroy it

You are still the same

You go on with your trade

I'm setting myself free from you

Be quiet!

Do not lie to me anymore

Be quiet!

I don't want to hear your voice

Time has gone by Can't you see

Your life is still the same

Go look for your own place

I don't need you anymore

Ra�l!

Ra�l!

Don't get dizzy sweetheart.

Come with me.

It's nothing.

Did you sleep well?

You're going to end up shitting a bastard.

Come with me.

Did you have fun last night?

Why are you taking a bath now?

Come on, Goyo...

Tell us!

What?

Ask Goyo to tell us...

What?

- It's none of your business. - Come on, Goyo, tell us.

- Come on, tell us! - What is the secret?

I'm going to be on TV.

What are you talking about?

- To the TV? - Yes, on TV.

On the "One O'clock Festival Show".

It's a contest to find the Chilean Tony Manero.

I have the same white suit.

- Just like Ra�l's? - But it's mine.

Can you imagine if you win...

- When are you going? - Today.

- Today? - Yes.

And Ra�l?

Ra�l should go too. We'd double our chances of winning.

She's right, you should go.

You'll win. They're all a bunch of young guys.

On top of it, he's too dark.

Have you seen his eyes?

Do you wanna bet I'll a success?

You're clumsy even on your own birthday!

- And he wanted a cake? - I'll go.

It was an accident.

All the milk is wasted.

Attention, please!

Calling Paulina Garc�s Garc�s.

Calling Paulina Garc�s Garc�s.

That's me.

- What's this about? - OK.

Come and sit down.

Come, everyone. We need to talk to you about something important.

Come on!

Everybody out.

Ma'am, come here. We have to talk.

Cony.

Come sit next to me.

- Did you hear me, you motherfuckers! - Ra�l, you son of a bitch!

Everyone outside!

Thanks.

Ra�l! Ra�l!

Where is that asshole?

No idea.

What do you mean? Where's Ra�l?

Sit down!

- What's the matter? - What?

I told you to sit down, jerk!

Hey, Cony, who is this guy?

Why don't you ask me?

Shut up, punk! Stay cool.

Who's Ra�l?

- Who else lives here? - No.

- He stops by once in a while. - Marcelo, go upstairs.

- What's the matter? - You tell me.

Strange things happen here.

People talk a lot.

I haven't done anything wrong.

- No? - No.

- Nothing wrong... - No.

Ask your mother.

Is this your daughter?

It's too late to change your mind.

Is this your daughter or not?

Yes.

Goyo, say something.

Tell him.

You said everything would be OK.

Say something.

What's your name?

- Gregorio Salinas. - And your full name?

- Acu�a. - And your nickname?

Goyo.

I see, we're gonna talk.

- There's a procedure. - Nobody is upstairs.

This is Goyo.

- O Goyo? - Yeah, shit!

Come on! Let's get this over with!

Come here!

Take it easy, Pauli!

Who's the guy from the print shop?

What print shop?

Talk, damn it!

Gentlemen, please wait herein order of arrival.

We're about to go on the air.

Silence please, behind the light.

Behind the light, please.

Silence please, behind the light.

Silence please, behind the light.

Everyone is on the stage. Come on, please.

Excuse me, let me through.

- How's everybody doing! - Festival!

Great audience!

A little money is better than none.

Dear, I have something important to tell you.

Last year, we almost went to war against Argentina,

because of a diplomatic incident.

Luckily, everything is OK now.

To express our wish for peace, we've hired Vanessa,

a beautiful Argentinean model!

Sir, come with me please.

Sit down!

I really love Chili, but I also love Argentina.

It hurts me as much as it hurts you

to be fighting over a piece of land.

We have to learn to share.

You're absolutely right.

- We're all united. - We are neighbors.

Now, let's spoil our female audience!

You've probably all seen "Saturday Night Fever".

Right? Starring the great dancer, John Travolta.

- Do you remember? - Yes.

In the movie, John Travolta plays Tony Manero.

We're searching now for the Chilean Tony Manero.

Follow me, little camera.

So, let's begin our contest!

Here we go, our first contender! He says: "I'm Tony Manero."

- I'm unemployed. - I can't believe.

If you win the contest today, you'll come back next Friday

and you might win 70,000 pesos! What do you say?

Ladies and gentlemen, Enrique says! "I'm Tony Manero!"

Ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome our next-to-last contender...
