A BULLET THROUGH THE HEART

Hello, Francesco.

Hello.

What are you doing here?

Rizzardi is waiting
for you on the terrace.

Rizzardi?

I thought he was in America.

Well, Retardi,
you missed the air of Sicily?

I assume that Benvenuto knows you.

He told me
that you want to buy Montelepre.

But Montelepre is not for sale.

It is said that I owe you money,
I will pay back by selling land.

That's all you told him?

You owe me nothing
and Montelepre isn't for sale anymore.

I bought it yesterday
in repayment of your debts.

I beg your pardon?

Deeds were passed before your notary,

and before my lawyer, and before you!

Since you signed them, you can check it.

Leave it, lout!

Knock him out.

Kill him.

Harder... harder... harder!

You can take him.

Marco, he's dangerous,
we need to eliminate him right now.

Let me do this, I'm taking care of it.

Impossible.

There would be a investigation,
a trial, difficulties... it's useless.

Some other time,
we'll arrange an accident.

As you wish.

Good evening.

Were you able to
cancel the deed of sale?

No, eh?

You're incapable of doing this...

You're too scared...

I couldn't do anything.

The deeds were filed this morning.

I know, I enquired.

I also know that I'd prefer a trial.

But I would have it for two years.

On condition
of finding a lawyer of course.

Now, leave me alone!

Francesco, I am leaving!

But before you have to know
that Rizzardi wants to kill you.

His men are waiting
in the hotel entrance to gun you down.

I had to enter
by the service door to not be seen.

Always your cowardice, Benvenuto?

Without your cowardice,
I wouldn't be there.

And me, I'll be dead.

And Rizzardi would have obliged to sell
to pay your debts anyway.

I couldn't have helped you.

Yes...
Maybe I would have sold everything.

But not to Rizzardi!

Not to this pig!

You're comfortable with yourself?

You'd sleep quietly?

Francesco, I want to help you.

It's about time!

So now, Rizzardi wants to kill me?

My palace
is not enough for him any more?

Rizzardi is a careful man.

He's right.

I'm going to take back
my palace from him, Benvenutto

Legally or not.

With or without your help.

Rizzardi is an assassin.

Everybody knows it.

I'll find him.

No Francesco,
nobody here will be on your side.

There's only one man who could help you.

He's the only living witness
of Rizzardi's crimes.

Giuseppe Tassara.

Who is Tassara?

Where is he?

He's an old Rizzardi associate.

Rizzardi wanted to kill him
after a disagreement.

And because he knew too much about him.

Tassara was able
to leave Sicily. He's in Greece.

It's him that you've got to find.

I've some addresses
where you'll be able to join him.

In Greece?

You have no choice Francesco!

If you care for your life,
you have to leave Sicily tonight.

I will tell you how.

I've prepared everything.

Marco.

Montelepre has vanished.

What?

We haven't see him
with Benvenuto for three days.

I told you to watch him.

I did. We lost his trace.

I told you to eradicate him right away.

You were right.

Age makes me too cautious.

And for the lady?

A well iced ouzo.

A well iced ouzo for the lady.

I'm not in voice at all tonight,
not at all!

Sure, sure, you've still in good voice.

I even find... it has something.

It has something, my voice?

Did you work that out by yourself?

Why so familiar?

Here in Greece, we are familiar,
or we don't talk at all.

Understand?

Oh yeah, it's Greece!

It's beautiful!

Why you don't look at me when you speak?

It's unpleasant.

Because you talk to me
with too much kindness.

Because you talk
with kindness to everyone.

Is that the purpose of your job?

My job is to sing!
Not to solicit poor guys like you!

No, stay with me.
We're gonna drink an ouzo.

I'll be nice.

Two ouzos! Two ouzos....

You're an impossible kind of guy.

First of all, you drink too much.

Then... you're tired.

Oh I'm not tired at all...
And I'm not drinking too much...

I'm the man of action!

A man of action? You?
You're funny...

No.

I'm searching for Giuseppe Tassara.

Don't know him.

He's a friend.
I know that he lived here.

It's been quite a while
since he vanished.

In my opinion, he's been killed.

The last man who searched
for him wanted to murder him.

He owed him some money.

I want to give him some money.

No kidding! Start by serving yourself.

I know, you're unhappy.
You have a fever.

One of powerlessness.

You need to go out.

Staying in like this isn't good.

Better anything than that.

You have something to propose?

You could play piano
at the Chicago bar, I've arranged it.

Don't shoot the pianist,
he's doing his best.

Dress yourself. Come.

You're gonna try the piano.

Maybe someday, by force of thinking,
you'll find the solution.

You can think while playing piano.

You're beautiful
as a little heart, sweetie.

But your heart is a sponge.

People who have
hearts likes sponges do nothing.

I don't appreciate whores who preach.

A marquis can go down very low.

Oh yes.

He's cute my little marquis, eh?

He's cute but he plays out of tune!

It's out of tune,
out of tune, out of tune!

I don't give a damn, damn, damn.

- Where is Carla?
- She went to change herself.

Don't give a damn either.

Here, listen to this!

It's very pretty, but if you carry on,
I'll kick you out!

In that kind of condition...

I want my bottle!

- My bottle!
- Enough drinking!

Miss Olga, I want my bottle.

Drop it. Get back to your piano.

Drop it?

- You say drop it right?
- Drop it!

What is it?

Telegram for you. I'll bring it.

Open it and read.

- You have no secrets from me then?
- No.

- You wouldn't understand it anyway.
- You sure?

Open it and read.

Failure. Stop.

All negotiations are over.
Stop.

We're looking for you. Stop.

What does this mean?

It means they don't care
about my witness,

that I have a whole army against me.

You're not afraid?

No. But not because I'm brave.

Then what?

It seems that you don't know about life.

Me, because I know men,
I know what life is.

You live in your imagination.

You should know that one man alone
can do nothing against a mob.

I told you to act because,
I didn't know what this was about.

Now, I'll give you some advice.

Hide.

Staying here, making love?

It's not about love anymore.

Francesco, it's serious!

Yeah. It's serious.

It's you who speaks
Italian and French?

Yeah, yeah

- Are you Greek? What's your name?
- Nicos Feris.

31, Agapion, in Perama.

Tomorrow at 9. We'll
give you the details on set.

Thank you.

Nicos, I'll repeat,
you'll serve as bait, that's all.

I'll be there.

- Afraid?
- No.

Aren't I paying you well?

And if it doesn't work like you think?

You don't have to be afraid.

I already told you
that they know me,

there's no danger
that they'll mistake you for me.

So try to relax.

Go to bed. Good night.

I've chosen the best one.

- How much?
- 100 drachma.

Here.

Look.

It's him. He's found a second job.

- Where is he?
- Athens

When do we leave?

You'll leave tomorrow.

We'll call Luigi right away.
He'll come with you.

And me?

I need you here.

- Your stomach?
- Yeah.

What did the doctor say?

An ulcer. Need
an operation, but I'm scared.

- Marco, I want to leave with them.
- Alright.

Hello? I want to send a telegram.

That's it.

Addressee: Francesco de Montelepre.

Thessalonique avenue. 32, Athens.

Navarra, Dino and Luigi take a plane

tomorrow to Greece, 2 pm.
Benvenuto.

- The bastards! Bastards!
- Here darling.

It's not because I got beaten
that you can call me "darling".

It's ok. Get up.

Come for a walk with me.

Talked enough?

Then put the radio, I want to something
other than stories about you or me.

Put the radio on.

This is also part of my repertoire.

- What's the matter with you?
- I'm leaving.

- Your place? I'll take you.
- Not necessary. I've had enough.

Of me?

I want to go to hell. Alone.

- I am Giuseppe Tassare.
- Come in.

- Sit down.
- Yes, marquise.

- You know me?
- Yes marquise.

No need for that here.

I've seen you sometimes in Montelepre.

- When I came to see...
- Rizzardi?

- I thought you were dead.
- It's hardly better.

You know why I'm looking for you?

Rizzardi came back to Sicily.

He stole Montelepre from me.

I want to take it back from him.

I know that you've been his partner.

You can help me by giving me proof
of his crimes.

I know an abandoned quarry
near to Palerme,

where he hid at least six corpses.

They were farmers.

- You could take me to this quarry?
- Yes, with my eyes closed.

- You want money?
- No.

Why are you doing this for me then?

I would like to see Sicily again.

- Hello?
- Hello Rizzardi?

Yes it's me.

Montelepre speaking.

Listen to me carefully.

I've found one of your old friends.
Tassara. Giuseppe Tassara.

I intend to use him against you,

unless you leave Montelepre
within ten days.

You see Benvenuto for the deeds.

I said ten days, no more.

I'll call you back for your answer.

Goodbye Rizzardi.

- Good evening.
- 'Evening miss.

I found Tassara.
Yeah, I told Rizzardi.

He said nothing,
but I'm sure he will react.

What interests me is how.

Alright, alright you can contact me
through people at The Chicago Bar.

Benvenuto, I thank you for everything.
Goodbye.

- Hello
- Hello

- You're ok?
- I'm doing very very well.

You cannot know how well I am.

Who's that Tassara?

He worked with me at one time.

He knows me well, much too well.

Montelepre can use him against me.

We have to find them both.

And quick!

Thank you.

You find a hotel?

By the Acropolis, nearby a picturesque
district, difficult to access.

For the Acropolis, we'll see later.
Better look for something in the center.

Hotel Ilto, 5 stars, 500 rooms,
swimming pool, air conditioning.

Alright. Go get a cab,
we'll take care of the luggage.

Darling, how happy I am
to see you again.

- Dido?
- Yes?

You ready to take me to the Acropolis?

I know where he is. You'll see it,
we'll go afterwards.

- I want to go with him.
- No way!

It's my saints name day!

Your brother
didn't tell me anything.

Montelepre
doesn't know Luigi, that's all.

As soon as Luigi spots him, we will go.

- Ok, ok. But I want to shoot first.
- Alright, agreed.

Here, the place is near Piraeus.

When you find him, you warn me.

Nikos Feris.

Navarra, I found him. He's here.
You can come. Quickly.

What's the matter?

Fate.

You crazy?

- Francesco, tell me...
- What?

It's very simple.

A man wanted to kill me...

I killed him with my revolver.

Another had a little weakness.
Amateur photographer.

He wanted to kill me too.

I dropped him
over the ramparts of the Acropolis.

Him, his cameras, his film...

all the stuff.

Very nice fall.

The third is going
to get the hell out of here.

Others will come later.
Surely.

- It's true what you just said?
- Yes.

Thank you.

The case has got off to a bad start.
Such a waste.

You see the picture? Disorder,
fantasy, violence, improvisation...

The result:
lots of deaths, useless deaths.

Have to start over, start from zero.

With new methods, a new plan.

- [?]
- And me, I have to stay here, do I?

No, not worth it, you can leave.

I'll carry the corpses
to the boat for you.

Dino eh?

They will embark
tomorrow morning,.

in two or three days
they will be in Palermo.

I'll be back.

Your passport? This way please.
Rome? This way.

Two ouzo.

- What is that?
- You'll see.

You understand Greek?

Too bad. This song is very beautiful.

The shore is large,
the wave is long.

The pain is
great, sin is bitter.

Like a bitter river in me,
is the blood of your wound.

Bitterer than blood,
is your kiss on my mouth.

Carla?
I didn't want to hurt you.

- Then, go with me.
- No, not tonight.

I've had enough of
your drunken sailors,

your dirty daughters,
and your Madame Olga.

- Tonight? Why tonight?
- I don't know.

Well, when you know, come join me.

I'm thirsty! Give me that.

- I tell you he won't come.
- You've said it twenty times.

- Why would he come?
- Where do you want him to go?

- What if he doesn't come?
- He will come.

- But he might not come!
- Elsewhere then!

There he is!

Turn off the light!
Hurry!

- So, you gonna shoot?
- I told you to sit down!

Shit, [?].

It doesn't matter, we can't wait here.
We're leaving.

The doctor's coming. I warned Carla.

We will take you to my room.
How do you feel?

Bad... Well!

Hello? I got him, but he moved.

Perhaps try again...

Alright.

Moron!

Why don't you get in bed?

Too hot.

I'm fed up.
I want to go out.

To know who fired at me.

You only think about that.
Keep still, or the fever will come back.

You always say that: keep still.

But how do you want me to be still?

In general, we have clues, suspicions.

Me? Nothing.

My enemies are unknown, anonymous.

And me?

I'm the target.
No reason for it to end.

Especially
if I stay confined in this room.

Who knows if they won't get this far?

Nothing is easier
than going up your stairs.

You picked up a wounded man.
You will find a dead man.

- Unless they kill me too.
- We will end up knowing.

My job is to know.
I observe, I watch.

You ask me to intervene, that's risky.
Are you worth it?

You know that this is
an argument between Sicilians.

These people are very vindictive.
Their pleasure is to kill themselves.

I wouldn't get involved in their quarrel
if it didn't come this far.

You know me, I'm a peaceful man.

In Athens, it's calm, there is no fuss,
I watch over the general tranquility.

All in all, I'm a bit like the father of
the mafia, since I'm from the mafia.

And the heart, the heart my poor child.
You're a victim of the heart.

And men are ungrateful.
I know it, I know your disappointment.

And now? Your little marquis
is going to leave you.

[?]

- I know you can't help it.
- You know too much.

It looks like you're in the game.

Reckless words.

I can't stop my Sicilian friends from
taking care of their little business.

We have to give advice to our friends.

Tell them not to kill Francesco.

For an intelligent girl,
you're so naive.

You know that in life
everything is give and take.

For Francesco's life,
what will you give?

Another life.

Not all lives are equal,
not all deaths either.

Francesco's death certainly has a value.

But the one of your unknown?

- You should have gone to bed.
- It's late, where were you?

I was held up. A difficult discussion...

I hope it wasn't about me.

I already asked you not
to look after my business.

- Yes I know.
- Carla? Who have you seen?

A friend who could be useful.

Tell me the truth.

What did you pay for?

I said that, if Tassara
was incapacitated,

killing you was not necessary.

In other words, they will kill Tassara
instead of me.

- I don't know.
- Me, I know.

Stay with me.

You knew well that he was the only chance
I have to get Rizzardi out of his hole,

bring him here.

A killer, like them.
That's what you became.

Yes, I want to have him.

What is this?

- What do you want?
- Shut up!

- No, I'm sure this is a mistake!
- You're going to shut it up!

- No, leave me alone.
- Go close the door.

I don't... I don't want to die!

Francesco. Francesco, listen to me.

You better disappear.
After Tassara, it will be your turn.

Even if you manage
to get rid of Navarra.

Rizzardi will sent replacements
until he kills you.

Francesco, you listen to me?

- You're not here for me?
- No, I came to use the phone.

You're still mad at me?

No, I'm not.

- Come have a drink with me then.
- No, thanks. Goodnight.

Come on Marco.

We have to get him.

- If you don't succeed, I'll go myself.
- Tassara is dead.

Montelepre can't do nothing
against you anymore. Forget it!

You're kidding?

I inquired. Navarra is taking
the boat tomorrow for Greece.

Yes, with two men.

They will
disembark tomorrow at Patraeus.

They will rent a car there
to go to Athens.

If they don't succeed,
Rizzardi will go himself.

But listen to me Francesco,
you have no chance.

You have to disappear, to forget,
and start a new life.

- How are we going to find him?
- Marco Poulos will tell us where he is.

Mr. Montelepre?
I come from Mr. Starlos.

Come in.

This is plastic explosive, boom!

This is the timer.

10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes...
Boom!

After you put plastic where you want.
Wait and boom!

Ah, Greece, it's good...

The fault is repaired, come.

We are now in the land of the gods
and heroes.

Hello.

Hello.
I almost missed it.

- Are you German?
- Yes, Roma Germanicum.

We do our annual excursion.
Father Sigfried Volz.

Marquis Francesco Montelepre of Palermo.

Are you visiting the country
as a tourist?

Yes... No. I mean, yes and no.

Are you going to Athens?

We're just going through it.
We're going to Delphi.

Then Mycenae, Epidaurus.
Athens on the way back.

A true pilgrimage of ancient paganism.

There's a Christian way of looking
at the monuments of paganism.

I'm convinced of it.

The station is built on the foundations
of a temple of Hermes.

At that time
there were no hotels,

and travelers lodged
in the halls of the temples.

- I was delighted to meet you.
- Me too.

A coach is waiting for us.
You can take it with us.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Let us not forget
that when new,

this statue was
a mish-mash of violent colors,

even garish!

These objects are meteors
that come not from space,

but from time.

a meteor, a burnt, melted stone,
changed into something else,

is no more the image
of its home planet,

than these mutilated
statues are the image

of an aesthetic and a morality
that remains light years from our mind.

Why did you leave the other night?

What are you doing?
Where are you going?

- I'm visiting the theater.
- And after?

- Andritsaina.
- I will come.

- No
- Yes

We're going to visit the theater.
Are you coming with us?

With pleasure.

It is said that geometry
is the mother of music.

In the center of this circle,
from the top of these steps,

one could hear
the slightest sigh of a violin.

- Isn't it wonderful?
- Wonderful.

You didn't answer me,
why did you leave the other night?

Because my friend was tired.

Your friend doesn't seem
to like me very much.

She says you scare her.

But you, nothing forces you to leave.

You had joined your friend,
I thought you would not come back.

Well, I don't have any more friends.
I'm alone.

Excuse me Miss.

We are leaving for Olympia this evening,
will you come with us?

Fine.

I'll meet you again this evening?

Anna, what are you doing?
I've been waiting for you for an hour.

I'm coming.

What are you doing in my room?

I was waiting for you.
I've waited a long time for you.

That's not a reason
to wait for me in my room.

I wanted to see you alone.
Without your friend.

Especially not in a museum.

We'll see you tonight,
later if you like.

- Not now.
- Please, don't play the little girl!

I'm not a little girl.
I know what I'm doing,

I don't take orders from anyone.

Guess what, I'm a professor.

Teacher I mean.

And I'm tired, leave me!

I didn't mean to hurt you.

- I don't even know your name.
- Anna.

Anna...
I need you.

That's not true.

I saw you with this woman.

Don't go telling me stories.

Well...
I'm leaving then?

No, stay.

I'm from Sicily.

I've been on the run for weeks.

It seems to me that I would never know
what it is to stop.

Simply to look at the sea.

I'm... How can I say?

Both game and hunter.

I don't understand anything
about your story.

What are you running from?

I only have one thing.

An old palace in Sicily.

Dilapidated.

Somebody took it from me.

A palace from what era?

That's the professor talking.

18th century.

Restored in the 19th century
by my great-grandfather.

And completely abandoned by me.

I was kicked out.

I don't have a palace,
even a dilapidated one,

from which I can be kicked out.

My universe, it's a classroom.

With 28 heads
lined up like toy soldiers.

They must love you, right?

I think they like me.

I thought you were sleeping.

I told you that
I had something to tell you earlier.

Is it that important?

Very.

Understand me.

It's like I've been
living there for centuries.

It was I who wore down the steps.

It was my hand that polished
the handrails of the stairs.

I can't forget.

- You say nothing?
- No.

Well?

He's here with the girl,

and I know where.

We are going to pick him like a flower.

- So we're going now?
- No, not now.

We will wait until tomorrow morning
to surprise him.

I don't believe this is the right way.

I don't care what you think.

- Go to the pharmacy to get...
- No!

I didn't come here to be your stooge,

to go to the pharmacy,
or to get you hot water bottles.

Get out!

Get out, or I'll blow your ass off!

Alright!

I'm sick of you.

Of this country!

Of all!

Alright, I'm getting out of here.

I wish you'd died.

With the stomach you have,
it shouldn't be long.

Fuck you.

- I don't want to go back.
- Of course.

Look. If you shoot, you're dead.
