00:01:07,793 --> 00:01:10,376
<i>Don't you disgrace me.</i>

2
00:01:10,709 --> 00:01:12,418
<i>I know your little tricks.</i>

3
00:01:18,793 --> 00:01:22,501
<i>She's crying because her mother</i>

4
00:01:22,626 --> 00:01:27,334
<i>was trying to protect her
and fell in the river and drowned</i>

5
00:01:27,501 --> 00:01:30,418
<i>just in front of this angel's eyes.</i>

6
00:01:47,959 --> 00:01:50,709
Are those actors masochists?

7
00:01:52,418 --> 00:01:54,543
If I chose them,
i would say they are.

8
00:02:01,876 --> 00:02:04,293
Ls sex politics?

9
00:02:05,084 --> 00:02:08,168
Of course.
There's nothing that isn't political.

10
00:02:27,501 --> 00:02:32,293
When you release your latest film,
the 120 <i>days</i> of sodom,

11
00:02:32,376 --> 00:02:37,584
do you believe
that it will scandalize again?

12
00:02:41,251 --> 00:02:44,001
Well, I think
to scandalize is a right.

13
00:02:44,709 --> 00:02:46,834
To be scandalized is a pleasure.

14
00:02:47,501 --> 00:02:51,001
And those who refuse the pleasure
to be scandalized are moralists.

15
00:03:01,668 --> 00:03:05,501
Why are you no longer a militant today?

16
00:03:07,334 --> 00:03:08,918
In what sense?

17
00:03:09,834 --> 00:03:13,084
You are no longer a militant today?

18
00:03:14,626 --> 00:03:16,084
I am more than ever.

19
00:03:17,001 --> 00:03:20,959
Do you miss the times

20
00:03:21,043 --> 00:03:24,001
when people used to
insult you in the street?

21
00:03:24,751 --> 00:03:26,251
They still insult me.

22
00:03:27,501 --> 00:03:30,334
Does it give you a certain pleasure?

23
00:03:33,376 --> 00:03:35,709
I don't refuse it
because I'm not a moralist.

24
00:03:37,209 --> 00:03:40,168
What professional qualification
do you prefer?

25
00:03:40,709 --> 00:03:42,168
Poet, novelist,

26
00:03:42,501 --> 00:03:47,001
dialogue writer, screenwriter,
actor, critic or director?

27
00:03:49,668 --> 00:03:51,668
On my passport

28
00:03:52,293 --> 00:03:55,418
I simply put "writer."

29
00:05:22,918 --> 00:05:24,501
"Dear Alberto,

30
00:05:25,209 --> 00:05:29,918
<i>"I'm sending you this manuscript
so that you can give me some advice.</i>

31
00:05:30,001 --> 00:05:31,293
<i>"It's a novel.</i>

32
00:05:32,168 --> 00:05:34,959
<i>"But it's not written
the way real novels are written.</i>

33
00:05:35,584 --> 00:05:39,501
<i>"Its language is that of essays,
of journal articles,</i>

34
00:05:39,584 --> 00:05:43,584
<i>"of reviews, of private letters,
even of poetry.</i>

35
00:05:46,001 --> 00:05:48,043
<i>"And here is the advice I am asking.</i>

36
00:05:49,001 --> 00:05:51,626
<i>"Ls what I have written
enough to express,</i>

37
00:05:51,709 --> 00:05:56,501
<i>"in a worthwhile and poetical way,
what I wanted to express?</i>

38
00:06:04,126 --> 00:06:07,168
<i>"I would like you to realise,
in advising me,</i>

39
00:06:07,251 --> 00:06:10,918
<i>"that the protagonist of this novel
is what he is.</i>

40
00:06:11,001 --> 00:06:14,251
<i>"And aside from the similarities
of his story to mine,</i>

41
00:06:15,084 --> 00:06:16,668
<i>"he is repugnant to me.</i>

42
00:06:29,584 --> 00:06:33,126
<i>"This novel is not very useful
any more in my life.</i>

43
00:06:33,209 --> 00:06:36,626
<i>"It is not an announcement,
'hey, man, I exist,'</i>

44
00:06:36,709 --> 00:06:39,084
<i>"but the preamble of a testament.</i>

45
00:06:40,293 --> 00:06:44,793
<i>"A testimony of the little knowledge
that one has accumulated,</i>

46
00:06:44,876 --> 00:06:46,959
<i>"and it is completely different</i>

47
00:06:47,043 --> 00:06:50,668
<i>"from what one expected or imagined."</i>

48
00:13:03,834 --> 00:13:05,626
Hello, pierruti, how are you?

49
00:13:05,709 --> 00:13:07,584
Good morning.
I'm fine, thanks.

50
00:13:07,668 --> 00:13:08,876
How was your trip?

51
00:13:08,959 --> 00:13:10,293
It went fine.

52
00:13:24,251 --> 00:13:25,834
- Graziella.
- Yes.

53
00:13:26,251 --> 00:13:28,376
You should read
sciascia's new novel.

54
00:13:29,001 --> 00:13:30,501
Take it from my desk.

55
00:13:31,376 --> 00:13:32,793
It's a great novel.

56
00:13:33,209 --> 00:13:34,834
Thank you, I'll read it.

57
00:13:36,751 --> 00:13:39,918
- Carlo Levi called to say hello.
- Okay.

58
00:13:40,001 --> 00:13:42,584
The director of la stampa
needs you to call him.

59
00:13:42,668 --> 00:13:43,834
Fine.

60
00:13:44,584 --> 00:13:48,418
I corrected, um, your speech
for the radical congress.

61
00:13:48,501 --> 00:13:51,001
- I put it on your desk.
- Okay, thank you.

62
00:14:14,834 --> 00:14:18,084
Neo-fascist gunned down
outside party hq. Friend injured.

63
00:14:23,751 --> 00:14:26,501
Survivor accuses her slaughterers

64
00:14:30,501 --> 00:14:33,584
man shot down by mistake
outside his house

65
00:15:06,918 --> 00:15:10,918
Leonardo sciascia
the mystery of majorana

66
00:15:26,418 --> 00:15:29,334
<i>"Carlo was not
the only powerful personage</i>

67
00:15:29,418 --> 00:15:32,668
<i>"to resign himself
to this official celebration,</i>

68
00:15:34,084 --> 00:15:36,459
<i>"the goal of arrivistes, snobs,</i>

69
00:15:36,668 --> 00:15:41,043
<i>"secondary figures, functionaries,
and bureaucrats with their wives.</i>

70
00:15:43,418 --> 00:15:46,959
<i>"And he was not the only one
to put a good face on bad luck.</i>

71
00:15:47,584 --> 00:15:51,293
<i>"Ln the middle, there was
the head of state, the still engine.</i>

72
00:15:53,918 --> 00:15:58,376
<i>"Also in democracy,
the holy game of kings continues</i>

73
00:15:58,459 --> 00:16:01,001
<i>"and the ceremonial life of royalty</i>

74
00:16:01,084 --> 00:16:03,959
<i>"is a widespread protocol
of the bourgeoisie.</i>

75
00:16:04,668 --> 00:16:08,501
<i>"He enters, pure chaos surrounded him."</i>

76
00:16:10,793 --> 00:16:14,501
Recently I've been attacked
by some journalists

77
00:16:14,626 --> 00:16:16,209
tied to eni!

78
00:16:16,376 --> 00:16:17,709
- Eni?
-Yes, enl.

79
00:16:17,793 --> 00:16:19,834
So many broken promises...

80
00:16:20,126 --> 00:16:23,084
I'm trying to fill this void
in my own way.

81
00:16:45,584 --> 00:16:48,293
Please, reassure the Americans

82
00:16:48,501 --> 00:16:51,126
our government is not planning
any tax on oil.

83
00:16:51,251 --> 00:16:52,293
Sure.

84
00:16:54,543 --> 00:16:55,709
Believe me,

85
00:16:55,793 --> 00:16:59,793
Vincenzo cazzaniga now enjoys
widespread appeal in the Vatican.

86
00:16:59,876 --> 00:17:03,418
Therefore the agnellis' capital will be
repatriated through the Vatican bank.

87
00:17:06,501 --> 00:17:09,126
In my opinion,
andreotti is an honest man.

88
00:17:09,251 --> 00:17:13,543
If he says not to worry
about the Milan bombings,

89
00:17:13,626 --> 00:17:15,834
then we don't worry about them.

90
00:17:15,959 --> 00:17:18,459
Well, we agree.

91
00:17:27,418 --> 00:17:30,709
<i>"Narrative an',
as you well know, is dead.</i>

92
00:17:32,626 --> 00:17:34,543
<i>"We are in a period of mourning.</i>

93
00:17:36,876 --> 00:17:39,834
<i>"Mine is not a tale, it is a parable.</i>

94
00:17:43,251 --> 00:17:44,501
<i>"The meaning of this parable</i>

95
00:17:44,584 --> 00:17:48,876
<i>"is precisely the relationship
of an author to the form he creates."</i>

96
00:18:29,126 --> 00:18:34,168
Narrative art,
as you well know, is dead.

97
00:18:35,334 --> 00:18:37,334
We are in a period of mourning.

98
00:18:39,168 --> 00:18:41,501
Mine is not a tale,

99
00:18:43,126 --> 00:18:44,501
it is a parable.

100
00:18:45,126 --> 00:18:49,251
The meaning of this parable
is the relationship of an author

101
00:18:49,959 --> 00:18:51,834
to the form he creates.

102
00:19:10,668 --> 00:19:13,834
<i>Andrea fago, "the man who eats,"</i>

103
00:19:14,668 --> 00:19:20,084
<i>as usual, took the alitalia dcq,
destination cape town,</i>

104
00:19:20,168 --> 00:19:24,376
<i>on an ordinary spring afternoon.</i>

105
00:20:04,209 --> 00:20:05,918
There should have been

106
00:20:06,001 --> 00:20:08,834
a few hours of a peaceful
and wonderful flight.

107
00:20:10,209 --> 00:20:13,543
First, Egypt-

108
00:20:14,626 --> 00:20:16,376
with the nile,

109
00:20:18,126 --> 00:20:19,876
with its green trees,

110
00:20:21,543 --> 00:20:24,251
with its palm trees and cereal fields,

111
00:20:25,251 --> 00:20:27,668
and its dark ochre villages.

112
00:20:28,501 --> 00:20:31,459
And then Sudan,

113
00:20:32,168 --> 00:20:36,334
with its endless Southern desert,

114
00:20:36,501 --> 00:20:38,293
wonderfully pink.

115
00:20:42,043 --> 00:20:45,001
The pink colour of this desert,
i dare reiterate,

116
00:20:45,084 --> 00:20:47,043
is really impressive.

117
00:20:47,126 --> 00:20:51,168
But even more impressive
is its immensity.

118
00:20:51,251 --> 00:20:55,834
It is infinite and always the same

119
00:20:55,918 --> 00:21:00,376
from Khartoum to lake Rudolf.

120
00:21:01,001 --> 00:21:05,751
What lends a foreboding feeling
to that desert

121
00:21:05,834 --> 00:21:09,001
is the fact that it's not a desert

122
00:21:10,043 --> 00:21:12,668
but an enormous empty country

123
00:21:12,751 --> 00:21:15,751
forgotten by god and by man.

124
00:21:16,209 --> 00:21:20,709
And it was in the middle of that desert
that the alitalia dc9 crashed.

125
00:21:41,043 --> 00:21:43,334
Everything I'm going to tell you

126
00:21:44,251 --> 00:21:47,459
appeared not in the theatre
of the world

127
00:21:47,834 --> 00:21:50,543
but in the theatre of my mind.

128
00:21:51,209 --> 00:21:54,959
It took place
not in the space of reality

129
00:21:55,043 --> 00:21:57,626
but in the space of my imagination.

130
00:21:58,334 --> 00:22:01,584
Is finally resolved not according

131
00:22:01,668 --> 00:22:04,918
to the contradictory rules
of the game of existence

132
00:22:05,876 --> 00:22:10,126
but to the contradictory rules
of the game of my reason.

133
00:22:36,126 --> 00:22:39,251
<i>"Andrea fago
observed the men coming toward him,</i>

134
00:22:39,334 --> 00:22:42,168
<i>"ancient men whom he knew very well.</i>

135
00:22:42,668 --> 00:22:46,459
<i>"He looked at them,
rather recognised them in silence.</i>

136
00:22:47,834 --> 00:22:51,084
<i>"Then his mouth widened
in an extraordinary smile</i>

137
00:22:51,168 --> 00:22:53,043
<i>"which lit up his eyes.</i>

138
00:22:58,668 --> 00:23:04,001
<i>"That smile, enigmatic
because it was too profoundly human,</i>

139
00:23:04,126 --> 00:23:06,126
<i>"had its origin in the thought,</i>

140
00:23:07,209 --> 00:23:08,876
<i>"'the continuity between me and them</i>

141
00:23:08,959 --> 00:23:11,918
<i>"'which returns

142
00:23:14,668 --> 00:23:18,793
<i>"'L am a form,
the knowledge of which is illusion.".</i>

143
00:23:59,001 --> 00:24:01,043
This is the list
of the interviews for said.

144
00:24:01,459 --> 00:24:02,834
Thank you.

145
00:24:13,626 --> 00:24:14,668
Now, for the release,

146
00:24:14,751 --> 00:24:17,418
the lawyers definitely
want to open first in Milan.

147
00:24:18,543 --> 00:24:21,501
They are convinced
it is there we have the best chance

148
00:24:21,584 --> 00:24:23,126
of overturning the censors.

149
00:24:23,209 --> 00:24:24,584
Let's hope they're right.

150
00:24:24,959 --> 00:24:27,084
Come on, be positive.
Do you want?

151
00:24:27,168 --> 00:24:28,751
Uh, a little, please.

152
00:24:31,251 --> 00:24:35,501
Aunt Susanna, this was just sent me
by gaetano perusini,

153
00:24:36,001 --> 00:24:37,334
special for pier paolo.

154
00:24:37,793 --> 00:24:40,043
Ah, from rocca bernarda.

155
00:24:40,126 --> 00:24:41,959
And there's also furio Colombo.

156
00:24:42,084 --> 00:24:44,084
<i>Yes, thaws for la stampa.</i>

157
00:24:44,834 --> 00:24:47,126
For their new literary supplement.

158
00:24:47,209 --> 00:24:48,668
They need it done very soon.

159
00:24:49,751 --> 00:24:51,709
Maybe
they can come this afternoon.

160
00:24:52,418 --> 00:24:54,834
Okay, I'll call them.

161
00:24:56,668 --> 00:24:58,959
And so, graziella,
what have you two been doing

162
00:24:59,043 --> 00:25:00,293
these last few days?

163
00:25:00,376 --> 00:25:03,001
We went to the pine grove
out in castelfusano.

164
00:25:03,084 --> 00:25:04,501
A lovely place

165
00:25:04,959 --> 00:25:07,209
with beautiful flowers.

166
00:25:08,418 --> 00:25:11,709
And you, did you like
Stockholm, pierruti?

167
00:25:12,084 --> 00:25:13,501
Yes, mammetta,

168
00:25:14,084 --> 00:25:16,709
but you and I could never live there.

169
00:25:18,876 --> 00:25:21,418
What about the nobel to montale?

170
00:25:21,501 --> 00:25:23,543
In Stockholm, I announced to everyone

171
00:25:23,626 --> 00:25:26,251
they should've given it to penna,
not montale.

172
00:25:26,626 --> 00:25:29,501
By the way, how is sandro?
Have you seen him lately?

173
00:25:30,543 --> 00:25:32,918
Sandro is sick and poor

174
00:25:33,001 --> 00:25:36,251
and now he's complaining
he can no longer chew his food.

175
00:25:37,001 --> 00:25:38,293
I don't understand why

176
00:25:38,626 --> 00:25:42,001
he doesn't want to wear his dentures.

177
00:25:43,459 --> 00:25:45,834
He start calling here in the night

178
00:25:46,251 --> 00:25:49,168
and talk and talk, talk...

179
00:25:51,001 --> 00:25:54,793
Last time, aunt Susanna
just put down the receiver on the table

180
00:25:54,876 --> 00:25:56,668
and went back to watching TV.

181
00:25:58,418 --> 00:26:00,876
Instead, you should write down
everything he says.

182
00:26:00,959 --> 00:26:02,209
He's a great poet.

183
00:26:09,001 --> 00:26:10,126
Graziella it's Laura.

184
00:26:14,209 --> 00:26:15,334
Here she is.

185
00:26:35,668 --> 00:26:38,043
Oh...

186
00:26:39,668 --> 00:26:42,251
Hello, Susanna,

187
00:26:42,918 --> 00:26:44,126
how are you doing?

188
00:26:47,084 --> 00:26:48,084
Hello, my dear.

189
00:26:56,501 --> 00:26:58,376
- How was your trip?
- Good, yours?

190
00:26:59,293 --> 00:27:00,668
Well, zagreb,

191
00:27:01,376 --> 00:27:04,793
your friend jancso
trying to kill us all the time.

192
00:27:04,876 --> 00:27:07,418
He kept his shooting around the clock.

193
00:27:08,626 --> 00:27:10,876
At the beginning,
he tried to stop me from improvising,

194
00:27:10,959 --> 00:27:12,543
but at the end,

195
00:27:12,626 --> 00:27:15,084
he had me direct the orgy scenes, too.

196
00:27:15,709 --> 00:27:19,876
And, oh, those socialist actresses.
I love them. So professional.

197
00:27:20,501 --> 00:27:22,209
They put haemorrhoid cream
on their pussies

198
00:27:22,293 --> 00:27:24,626
to hide the wrinkles.

199
00:27:25,501 --> 00:27:26,834
Now I use it, too.

200
00:27:27,334 --> 00:27:29,959
But here. Look here. Works great.

201
00:27:30,376 --> 00:27:33,418
Since I don't have money
for all the, you know, fancy cosmetics,

202
00:27:33,918 --> 00:27:36,001
that's what I get. Mmm!

203
00:27:36,543 --> 00:27:37,751
- Look at that!
- Want some?

204
00:27:37,834 --> 00:27:39,334
No, no, no. But, you know,

205
00:27:39,418 --> 00:27:42,584
I missed Italian food
so much in yugoslavia.

206
00:27:42,668 --> 00:27:43,834
The food is dreadful.

207
00:27:43,918 --> 00:27:47,293
I don't know why communist men
and good food, they don't get along.

208
00:27:47,668 --> 00:27:49,501
Oh, pier Paulo,

209
00:27:50,001 --> 00:27:51,418
I got something for you.

210
00:27:54,168 --> 00:27:55,876
Here, I hope you like it.

211
00:27:56,126 --> 00:27:58,459
The traditional Croatian music.

212
00:27:59,376 --> 00:28:01,626
And something for the girls...

213
00:28:04,751 --> 00:28:06,918
- This is for you, my dear.
-Thank you.

214
00:28:08,334 --> 00:28:09,543
And, uh,

215
00:28:09,959 --> 00:28:12,126
- Susanna.
-Oh, thank you.

216
00:28:18,459 --> 00:28:20,751
Now, this is the one. Yeah.

217
00:28:21,793 --> 00:28:23,918
- Put it on?
- Yeah. Hope you like it.

218
00:28:26,251 --> 00:28:28,334
Want some wine?

219
00:28:28,876 --> 00:28:30,418
Yes, I do.

220
00:28:34,584 --> 00:28:35,959
Ah...

221
00:28:36,043 --> 00:28:38,001
Now, you can put your jewellery.

222
00:28:38,584 --> 00:28:41,001
Laura, is it true
that you dubbed the devil's voice?

223
00:28:41,501 --> 00:28:44,251
Yes, your graziella,
i worked for the devil.

224
00:28:44,334 --> 00:28:45,709
No Hollywood cinema.

225
00:29:01,626 --> 00:29:03,084
Oh!

226
00:29:03,168 --> 00:29:04,168
Isn't it great?

227
00:29:04,751 --> 00:29:07,876
Honey, let me show you
how communists dance.

228
00:29:08,001 --> 00:29:11,084
- Oh, no, please.
-Leave this. Now hold this.

229
00:29:11,168 --> 00:29:13,251
I'll show you. I had good lessons.

230
00:29:20,293 --> 00:29:22,209
Nice!

231
00:29:23,876 --> 00:29:25,084
Come on...

232
00:29:30,459 --> 00:29:32,501
She should put on more makeup,
don't you think?

233
00:29:32,584 --> 00:29:33,834
She's so beautiful.

234
00:29:33,918 --> 00:29:34,918
Come on, graziella,

235
00:29:35,001 --> 00:29:36,876
come, come and dance with me. Come on.

236
00:32:42,168 --> 00:32:45,168
Pasolini,
you have launched a single-handed attack

237
00:32:45,251 --> 00:32:49,043
on institutions, ideologies,
individuals, forces.

238
00:32:50,043 --> 00:32:54,751
To simplify the discussion,
let's call this "the situation,"

239
00:32:54,834 --> 00:32:57,709
the general state of affairs
you're fighting against.

240
00:32:58,418 --> 00:33:01,584
But let's say that your imagination

241
00:33:02,626 --> 00:33:04,668
harbours some magical powers.

242
00:33:05,751 --> 00:33:08,084
You could wave your hand,

243
00:33:08,168 --> 00:33:10,209
and all of it would disappear,

244
00:33:10,584 --> 00:33:12,418
everything that you hate.

245
00:33:14,043 --> 00:33:15,251
What about here?

246
00:33:16,168 --> 00:33:19,043
You wouldn't be left alone,
without any means?

247
00:33:21,376 --> 00:33:22,668
Yes, I see, uh...

248
00:33:23,834 --> 00:33:25,209
These magic powers,

249
00:33:25,751 --> 00:33:28,376
not only do I use them,
but I believe in them.

250
00:33:28,459 --> 00:33:32,376
Not because I consider myself
some kind of sorcerer,

251
00:33:32,459 --> 00:33:35,751
but just because I know
that pounding away on the same nail

252
00:33:35,834 --> 00:33:37,376
can bring down the house.

253
00:33:39,584 --> 00:33:41,543
The few people that have changed history

254
00:33:41,668 --> 00:33:44,293
are not the sycophants
or the cardinals' retinue,

255
00:33:44,376 --> 00:33:45,834
they're the people who said no.

256
00:33:45,918 --> 00:33:47,834
Refusal has always been
a crucial gesture,

257
00:33:47,918 --> 00:33:49,293
but to be effective,

258
00:33:50,126 --> 00:33:53,668
it has to be great, absolute, absurd.

259
00:33:54,959 --> 00:33:57,251
Common sense
never stopped this situation.

260
00:33:58,959 --> 00:34:01,376
So, we have three questions.

261
00:34:01,459 --> 00:34:02,793
What is "the situation,"

262
00:34:03,334 --> 00:34:05,543
why should it be stopped or destroyed

263
00:34:06,418 --> 00:34:07,751
and in what way?

264
00:34:09,501 --> 00:34:11,209
Then, to describe the situation...

265
00:34:12,084 --> 00:34:16,043
You're well aware that your writings,
your language

266
00:34:17,668 --> 00:34:21,626
have the effect of sunlight
filtering through dust.

267
00:34:21,709 --> 00:34:24,418
Beautiful, but hard to understand.

268
00:34:25,668 --> 00:34:26,959
Oh, thank you

269
00:34:27,543 --> 00:34:32,043
for the image of the sunlight,
but I ask for much less.

270
00:34:32,793 --> 00:34:37,126
I'm asking you simply to look around
and see the tragedy.

271
00:34:37,876 --> 00:34:39,168
What is the tragedy?

272
00:34:40,001 --> 00:34:42,959
The tragedy is
there are no more human beings,

273
00:34:43,043 --> 00:34:46,293
there are only strange machines
colliding into each other.

274
00:34:47,543 --> 00:34:52,168
And this tragedy starts
with the universal, compulsory,

275
00:34:52,251 --> 00:34:55,209
perverted system of education
that shapes all of us,

276
00:34:55,293 --> 00:34:58,751
from the so-called ruling class
right down to the poor.

277
00:34:59,334 --> 00:35:02,876
It pushes us towards
the arena of having things,

278
00:35:02,959 --> 00:35:04,626
everything, at any cost.

279
00:35:04,709 --> 00:35:07,209
That's why we all want the same things

280
00:35:07,293 --> 00:35:08,751
and behave in the same way.

281
00:35:09,043 --> 00:35:13,168
So, if I have access
to a political committee

282
00:35:13,251 --> 00:35:15,876
or inside stock information, I use that

283
00:35:16,418 --> 00:35:18,126
or I use a crowbar.

284
00:35:19,043 --> 00:35:20,626
And when I use that crowbar,

285
00:35:20,709 --> 00:35:23,876
I work my violence
so I can get what I want.

286
00:35:23,959 --> 00:35:25,293
Why do I want it?

287
00:35:25,376 --> 00:35:27,376
Because they have told me
it is a virtue to want it.

288
00:35:27,459 --> 00:35:29,959
I'm expressing my right, my virtue.

289
00:35:30,043 --> 00:35:32,084
I'm an assassin and a good man.

290
00:35:33,793 --> 00:35:35,418
But now,

291
00:35:35,501 --> 00:35:37,876
people don't stop short of murder.

292
00:35:39,043 --> 00:35:42,459
In this changing landscape,
there's a death wish

293
00:35:42,543 --> 00:35:44,709
that binds us together like brothers,

294
00:35:44,793 --> 00:35:49,001
all caught up in the sinister failure
of an entire social system

295
00:35:49,084 --> 00:35:51,126
that produces a race of gladiators

296
00:35:51,209 --> 00:35:54,293
that are trained to have,
possess and destroy.

297
00:35:57,001 --> 00:35:59,751
Then, you have us
breed little Shepherd boys

298
00:35:59,834 --> 00:36:02,501
without education, ignorant and happy.

299
00:36:04,334 --> 00:36:08,251
The way you put it,
it sounds like nonsense.

300
00:36:10,418 --> 00:36:12,043
Let me be frank with you.

301
00:36:13,334 --> 00:36:14,584
I have been to hell,

302
00:36:15,418 --> 00:36:18,834
and I know things that don't disturb
other people's dreams.

303
00:36:19,334 --> 00:36:20,751
But let me warn you,

304
00:36:20,834 --> 00:36:22,709
hell is rising towards you.

305
00:36:23,584 --> 00:36:28,584
It's true it comes under different
banners and behind different masks.

306
00:36:29,293 --> 00:36:31,543
We're all victims, and we're all guilty.

307
00:36:32,376 --> 00:36:35,418
The urge, the need to swing a crowbar

308
00:36:35,501 --> 00:36:36,834
to attack, to kill,

309
00:36:36,918 --> 00:36:39,376
is powerful and it's in all of us.

310
00:36:39,459 --> 00:36:42,959
But it will no longer
remain just the private,

311
00:36:43,043 --> 00:36:46,418
risky experience of those who,
how shall I say it, uh,

312
00:36:46,501 --> 00:36:48,418
have touched "the violent life."

313
00:36:49,543 --> 00:36:51,209
Stop kidding yourselves.

314
00:36:51,293 --> 00:36:55,001
You and your schools, your television,

315
00:36:55,084 --> 00:36:56,876
your complacent newspapers,

316
00:36:57,668 --> 00:37:02,501
you are the great preservers
of this appalling tradition

317
00:37:02,584 --> 00:37:05,876
that is based on the idea
of possessing and destroying.

318
00:37:15,293 --> 00:37:18,334
Then return to my original question.

319
00:37:18,418 --> 00:37:21,043
With a wave of your hand,
you abolish everything.

320
00:37:21,126 --> 00:37:24,959
The education system,
elected officials, television itself.

321
00:37:26,209 --> 00:37:28,418
If you do away with all of this,

322
00:37:29,709 --> 00:37:31,168
what will you have left?

323
00:37:34,543 --> 00:37:36,584
Everything. I'll have everything.

324
00:37:36,668 --> 00:37:40,501
Myself, my life, my life in the world,

325
00:37:41,584 --> 00:37:45,793
saying, working, understanding,
my books, my films...

326
00:37:46,293 --> 00:37:49,584
I think I would make films
even if I was the last free man.

327
00:37:49,668 --> 00:37:52,876
Maybe I make films because I need to,

328
00:37:53,459 --> 00:37:55,459
I like it, I feel like it, so I do it.

329
00:37:55,543 --> 00:37:58,584
I either kill myself or I do it.

330
00:37:59,918 --> 00:38:01,834
I, I make films...

331
00:38:02,751 --> 00:38:04,293
That way, I express myself.

332
00:38:04,376 --> 00:38:07,918
If my expression is alienated, so what?

333
00:38:08,001 --> 00:38:10,959
At least I'm expressing myself
as free as possible.

334
00:38:16,001 --> 00:38:18,168
I don't want to talk
about myself any more.

335
00:38:18,251 --> 00:38:20,084
I've already said too much.

336
00:38:20,168 --> 00:38:24,043
Everyone knows that I pay
the consequences for my actions.

337
00:38:24,126 --> 00:38:25,126
Maybe I'm wrong.

338
00:38:25,209 --> 00:38:27,876
But I just want to say
that we're all in danger.

339
00:38:31,084 --> 00:38:33,584
If this is your view of life...

340
00:38:34,918 --> 00:38:37,168
I don't know
if you'll accept the question.

341
00:38:38,251 --> 00:38:42,334
How do you plan to avoid the danger
and the risk that you describe?

342
00:38:49,376 --> 00:38:52,668
It's late, we should stop.

343
00:38:54,209 --> 00:38:56,918
Perhaps you could
leave the questions with me.

344
00:38:57,001 --> 00:39:00,501
I think some of the points are flat.
I'd like to think about them.

345
00:39:00,584 --> 00:39:03,334
I feel much more comfortable
writing than talking like this.

346
00:39:03,876 --> 00:39:06,543
I can make some notes
and get them to you tomorrow.

347
00:39:18,626 --> 00:39:19,959
Do you have a title?

348
00:39:21,543 --> 00:39:23,543
What about, "we're all in danger"?

349
00:42:16,709 --> 00:42:18,084
Closed?

350
00:42:18,168 --> 00:42:20,709
No, no. I'm always open for you.

351
00:42:20,793 --> 00:42:22,209
- Thank you.
-Maestro.

352
00:42:22,293 --> 00:42:24,376
- How are you?
-L'm fine.

353
00:42:25,168 --> 00:42:26,334
Where have you been?

354
00:42:26,584 --> 00:42:29,126
- Stockholm.
-How was it in Stockholm?

355
00:42:29,209 --> 00:42:32,459
<i>I was presenting my book,
gramsci's ashes.</i>

356
00:42:32,543 --> 00:42:33,876
Oh, bravo.

357
00:42:34,418 --> 00:42:37,084
Did you see what's going on out there?

358
00:42:37,959 --> 00:42:40,168
Two guys were killed
just around the corner.

359
00:42:40,584 --> 00:42:42,918
One was a fascist and was just 16.

360
00:42:43,418 --> 00:42:46,876
And to avenge him,
they shot an innocent guy.

361
00:42:47,501 --> 00:42:49,043
Rome is finished, my friend.

362
00:42:49,459 --> 00:42:51,293
You gotta get out, move abroad.

363
00:42:52,751 --> 00:42:55,876
What would I do abroad?
I just cook spaghetti.

364
00:42:55,959 --> 00:42:57,501
Do you know how many people

365
00:42:57,584 --> 00:43:00,251
would be crazy for your food
in France or Germany?

366
00:43:00,334 --> 00:43:01,543
I'm sure,

367
00:43:01,918 --> 00:43:03,834
with all that shit they eat!

368
00:43:04,709 --> 00:43:08,626
Now, we have your nice steak
and just a little bit of salad?

369
00:43:08,709 --> 00:43:09,709
Fine.

370
00:43:11,459 --> 00:43:13,876
-L'm waiting for ninetto.
-Okay.

371
00:43:37,459 --> 00:43:41,834
<i>"Dear Eduardo,
here at last, in writing,</i>

372
00:43:41,918 --> 00:43:45,418
<i>"is the film I've been talking
to you about for years.</i>

373
00:43:56,418 --> 00:43:59,376
<i>"I entrust epifanio entirely to you.</i>

374
00:44:00,793 --> 00:44:03,709
<i>"Deliberately. As a forgone conclusion.</i>

375
00:44:09,043 --> 00:44:10,626
<i>"You are epifanio.</i>

376
00:44:12,126 --> 00:44:14,501
<i>"The you of dreams, idealised but real.</i>

377
00:44:22,459 --> 00:44:26,626
<i>"I hope with all my heart
not only that you like the film</i>

378
00:44:26,709 --> 00:44:28,251
<i>"and agree to do it,</i>

379
00:44:28,834 --> 00:44:32,668
<i>"but you'll help encourage me
to tackle such an undertaking."</i>

380
00:45:46,293 --> 00:45:48,209
The Messiah is born!

381
00:45:54,793 --> 00:45:56,668
The Messiah is here!

382
00:46:08,293 --> 00:46:10,709
What are you talking about?

383
00:46:16,501 --> 00:46:19,084
Epifanio, the Messiah is born!

384
00:46:27,001 --> 00:46:31,584
<i>Everyone was saying,
'the Messiah is born.</i>

385
00:46:32,168 --> 00:46:34,251
<i>'The Messiah is born.'</i>

386
00:46:34,334 --> 00:46:36,834
who told you that?

387
00:46:37,293 --> 00:46:41,793
Everyone. 'The Messiah is born.
The Messiah is born.'

388
00:46:41,876 --> 00:46:45,251
you'll believe anything,
but you don't hear right.

389
00:46:45,334 --> 00:46:48,668
Once I asked you for anchovies
and you brought back tuna.

390
00:47:15,918 --> 00:47:19,959
The star. The Messiah is born.

391
00:47:21,084 --> 00:47:22,793
The Messiah is born.

392
00:49:00,751 --> 00:49:02,584
How beautiful you are!

393
00:49:03,584 --> 00:49:05,418
Aldo, tell us.

394
00:49:06,459 --> 00:49:08,918
I have some excellent pheasant!

395
00:49:09,001 --> 00:49:11,293
I shot it myself. If the lady likes it.

396
00:49:11,918 --> 00:49:13,084
Yes, okay.

397
00:49:13,459 --> 00:49:14,584
Okay. Some wine?

398
00:49:14,668 --> 00:49:16,334
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Perfect.

399
00:49:47,834 --> 00:49:50,668
Beautiful smile. Beautiful smile.

400
00:50:30,334 --> 00:50:33,793
There's the star.
This is where the Messiah will be born.

401
00:50:34,126 --> 00:50:35,584
Let's go!

402
00:51:02,501 --> 00:51:03,751
Nice ass!

403
00:51:06,126 --> 00:51:07,918
- Are you foreign?
-Yes.

404
00:51:08,459 --> 00:51:09,793
I can tell.

405
00:51:14,126 --> 00:51:17,001
- Hi. How are you?
-L'm fine, thanks.

406
00:51:17,959 --> 00:51:20,084
Can I see your passport, please?

407
00:51:21,876 --> 00:51:23,584
Give him your passport.

408
00:51:27,293 --> 00:51:29,918
- Are you new in town?
-Yes.

409
00:51:30,001 --> 00:51:31,876
May I ask you something?

410
00:51:32,334 --> 00:51:34,001
Do you like men or women?

411
00:51:34,584 --> 00:51:37,584
Why do you even ask? Women.

412
00:51:37,876 --> 00:51:40,001
What are you doing?

413
00:51:42,168 --> 00:51:44,043
Let me give you some advice.

414
00:51:44,126 --> 00:51:46,709
There's a special part of town
just for people like you.

415
00:51:46,793 --> 00:51:49,209
- Thanks.
-You'll like it better.

416
00:52:10,751 --> 00:52:12,334
Are you Roman?

417
00:52:14,043 --> 00:52:16,043
I knew it. And him?

418
00:52:16,126 --> 00:52:18,501
No, he's from here and there.

419
00:52:18,793 --> 00:52:21,334
What about you?

420
00:52:22,793 --> 00:52:24,459
- What?
-Then why are you here?

421
00:52:24,543 --> 00:52:26,376
L just do it for the money.

422
00:52:30,001 --> 00:52:33,084
This is the most free city in the world.

423
00:52:33,209 --> 00:52:36,293
The city of lesbians and gays.

424
00:52:37,834 --> 00:52:41,668
And tonight is their big celebration.

425
00:52:43,793 --> 00:52:46,001
- Do you want to come?
-What's it gonna cost?

426
00:52:46,334 --> 00:52:49,543
You're with me, it's free.

427
00:52:50,334 --> 00:52:51,418
Come on.

428
00:53:13,126 --> 00:53:14,668
What is this place?

429
00:53:14,834 --> 00:53:17,543
The feast of the fertility.

430
00:53:18,418 --> 00:53:20,793
This is an important feast
for this city.

431
00:53:20,959 --> 00:53:24,626
Here in sodom, during the year,

432
00:53:24,793 --> 00:53:27,126
the gays stick with the gays

433
00:53:27,293 --> 00:53:29,293
and the lesbians with the lesbians.

434
00:53:29,376 --> 00:53:31,709
But on this one day,

435
00:53:31,793 --> 00:53:36,293
they come together
to procreate the race.

436
00:53:36,834 --> 00:53:40,501
And after today, they go their separate
ways, the lesbians with lesbians

437
00:53:40,584 --> 00:53:43,334
and the gays go back to...

438
00:53:43,626 --> 00:53:46,918
- The gays go back...
-To the gays.

439
00:53:49,293 --> 00:53:51,584
Wait, don't open the door.

440
00:53:51,668 --> 00:53:54,543
It's better to knock first.

441
00:53:55,168 --> 00:53:58,918
Don't worry,
this is the city of tolerance.

442
00:54:17,209 --> 00:54:19,668
Dick, dick, fuck him good!

443
00:54:20,251 --> 00:54:23,251
Pussy, pussy, fuck her good!

444
00:56:26,668 --> 00:56:27,834
Ah!

445
00:57:13,376 --> 00:57:15,376
<i>Epifanio 's spirit
rises out of his body</i>

446
00:57:15,459 --> 00:57:16,751
<i>because he's dead</i>

447
00:57:16,834 --> 00:57:20,084
<i>and nunzio is waiting for him
and reveals that he's an angel.</i>

448
00:57:20,668 --> 00:57:22,626
<i>Epifanio is happy about this</i>

449
00:57:22,709 --> 00:57:25,751
<i>and nunzio says, 'let's go to paradise.'</i>

450
00:57:26,126 --> 00:57:27,626
so they start to walk,

451
00:57:28,168 --> 00:57:32,459
they go up into the clouds
and they leave planet earth behind.

452
00:57:32,959 --> 00:57:35,709
They walk and they walk
and they walk and they walk,

453
00:57:35,793 --> 00:57:37,376
but they never get to paradise.

454
00:57:37,751 --> 00:57:39,418
Epifanio says, 'where is paradise?'

455
00:57:39,501 --> 00:57:41,126
nunzio says, 'it's over there.'

456
00:57:41,501 --> 00:57:43,626
so they walk and walk and walk and walk,

457
00:57:43,709 --> 00:57:46,543
they walk for a long time,
but they never get to the place.

458
00:57:46,876 --> 00:57:49,168
They're so tired, they have to stop.

459
00:57:50,209 --> 00:57:51,918
Paradise doesn't exist.

460
00:57:52,584 --> 00:57:54,959
Epifanio's taking a piss,

461
00:57:55,043 --> 00:57:57,918
and then he turns back
and looks at planet earth.

462
00:57:59,001 --> 00:58:02,501
Sounds are coming from there.
Faintly, far away.

463
00:58:02,834 --> 00:58:05,501
Music, voices, pop songs,

464
00:58:05,584 --> 00:58:08,459
advertising, revolutionary songs.

465
00:58:09,209 --> 00:58:11,751
He looks back at earth and he says,

466
00:58:12,501 --> 00:58:16,543
'in the end, I'm happy
that I followed that star,

467
00:58:17,001 --> 00:58:20,001
'because it gave me the opportunity
to know better

468
00:58:20,084 --> 00:58:22,293
'the planet that I love so much.'

469
00:58:23,126 --> 00:58:27,043
and then he turns to nunzio
and says, 'what next?'

470
00:58:27,668 --> 00:58:30,959
and nunzio says, 'the end doesn't exist,

471
00:58:31,751 --> 00:58:35,126
'so we just wait,
something will happen.'

472
00:58:40,293 --> 00:58:42,459
I want to start filming
as soon as possible.

473
00:58:44,501 --> 00:58:45,501
I go.

474
00:59:56,418 --> 00:59:58,418
Hey, Jack palance,
can I drive that thing?

475
00:59:58,959 --> 01:00:00,918
You don't even have a licence.

476
01:00:02,251 --> 01:00:04,543
- Where have you been?
-Far away.

477
01:01:02,668 --> 01:01:03,959
Beautiful.

478
01:01:05,126 --> 01:01:06,751
Did you steal it?

479
01:01:07,126 --> 01:01:11,126
No, got it from a friend of mine,
he brought it from America.

480
01:01:17,959 --> 01:01:20,126
How are you doing tonight?

481
01:01:21,501 --> 01:01:23,251
I can't complain.

482
01:01:27,459 --> 01:01:29,459
- Are you hungry?
-Sure.

483
01:02:42,084 --> 01:02:43,751
Good evening, maestro.

484
01:03:01,876 --> 01:03:03,376
What can I get you?

485
01:03:05,918 --> 01:03:10,501
Spaghetti and chicken breast for him.

486
01:03:10,751 --> 01:03:13,418
- For you?
-I had dinner already.

487
01:03:14,751 --> 01:03:16,459
What would you like to drink?

488
01:03:16,584 --> 01:03:17,918
A beer.

489
01:03:18,001 --> 01:03:19,918
Nothing for me, thanks.

490
01:03:27,459 --> 01:03:31,626
- Do you have a job?
-Sometimes I work in a garage.

491
01:03:32,334 --> 01:03:34,501
Really? Do you like it?

492
01:03:34,959 --> 01:03:36,668
It's tough.

493
01:03:36,751 --> 01:03:39,084
All day sanding and sanding.

494
01:03:44,418 --> 01:03:46,418
You like cars?

495
01:03:46,626 --> 01:03:48,418
- Yes.
-What about mine?

496
01:03:48,626 --> 01:03:49,918
It's nice.

497
01:03:50,668 --> 01:03:52,834
Maybe I'll let you drive it.

498
01:03:52,918 --> 01:03:54,084
I got a car,

499
01:03:54,168 --> 01:03:56,584
but it needs a starter and I'm broke.

500
01:04:01,251 --> 01:04:03,959
- Do you have a girlfriend?
-Yes.

501
01:04:06,709 --> 01:04:08,418
What do you do with her?

502
01:04:11,793 --> 01:04:14,376
Do you like to go out dancing?

503
01:04:15,168 --> 01:04:17,959
- Yes, she likes it.
-I like it, too.

504
01:04:18,209 --> 01:04:19,626
But it's too expensive.

505
01:04:19,709 --> 01:04:22,251
You don't need money to dance.

506
01:04:22,334 --> 01:04:24,126
You need money for everything.

507
01:04:38,168 --> 01:04:41,918
Have you ever been in trouble?

508
01:04:42,168 --> 01:04:43,334
What do you mean?

509
01:04:44,168 --> 01:04:46,168
With the cops.

510
01:04:47,001 --> 01:04:50,334
Fuck the cops.
They're a bunch of shitheads.

511
01:04:50,418 --> 01:04:53,959
Last time I was arrested,
it was for some bullshit.

512
01:05:03,501 --> 01:05:04,959
Good, right?

513
01:05:53,584 --> 01:05:56,084
- Goodbye, see you soon.
-Thanks.

514
01:06:56,501 --> 01:06:58,709
Do you want to go to the beach?

515
01:06:59,251 --> 01:07:02,501
Yes, but how long's it gonna take?
I got to get back.

516
01:07:03,209 --> 01:07:04,918
Don't worry,

517
01:07:06,293 --> 01:07:08,084
I'll make it worth your while.

518
01:10:01,209 --> 01:10:03,209
What the fuck are you doing?

519
01:10:08,626 --> 01:10:10,918
Nice car, faggot! Ls it yours?

520
01:10:11,001 --> 01:10:13,293
What are you doing
with your ass sticking out?

521
01:10:13,584 --> 01:10:15,626
What do you think they're doing?

522
01:10:15,709 --> 01:10:18,418
I'll tell you
what the fuck they're doing.

523
01:10:19,251 --> 01:10:21,001
Give me the money, asshole!

524
01:10:39,334 --> 01:10:40,376
Oh!

525
01:10:50,543 --> 01:10:52,918
- Give me that.
-Look in the car.

526
01:11:23,001 --> 01:11:25,376
Pick this faggot up.

527
01:11:27,334 --> 01:11:28,709
Asshole.

528
01:11:32,084 --> 01:11:33,501
Pick him up.

529
01:11:43,001 --> 01:11:44,709
You cocksucker.

530
01:11:51,501 --> 01:11:53,584
Faggot. Shit bag.

531
01:11:54,001 --> 01:11:55,584
Cocksucker.

532
01:11:58,334 --> 01:12:00,293
Fucking faggot.

533
01:12:00,376 --> 01:12:01,709
Asshole.

534
01:13:06,293 --> 01:13:07,918
How can it be possible?

535
01:13:09,418 --> 01:13:11,251
I was sure it was here!

536
01:13:12,293 --> 01:13:13,626
I was really sure!

537
01:13:14,334 --> 01:13:16,418
What? Heaven?

538
01:13:20,709 --> 01:13:23,751
Listen, I can't take it any more.

539
01:14:16,626 --> 01:14:18,709
Like all stars,

540
01:14:19,293 --> 01:14:22,751
the one I followed was bullshit.

541
01:14:23,418 --> 01:14:25,918
But without the bullshit,

542
01:14:26,334 --> 01:14:29,793
earth, I would have not known you.

543
01:14:34,876 --> 01:14:36,043
And now?

544
01:14:37,918 --> 01:14:39,376
Nothing.

545
01:14:40,501 --> 01:14:42,501
The end does not exist.

546
01:14:43,001 --> 01:14:44,709
Let's wait.

547
01:14:45,543 --> 01:14:47,334
Something will happen.

548
01:16:18,209 --> 01:16:23,876
A people of poets, artists, heroes,
saints, thinkers, scientists,

549
01:16:23,959 --> 01:16:27,251
navigators, migrants
