1
00:00:42,938 --> 00:00:46,941
THE LEOPARD
2
00:03:55,172 --> 00:03:58,466
Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord be with thee...
3
00:06:07,387 --> 00:06:09,639
What is that disturbance?
4
00:06:09,807 --> 00:06:12,099
What has happened?
5
00:06:12,601 --> 00:06:18,105
Excuse me, Your Excellency.
A dead soldier has been found in the garden
6
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:19,774
What?
7
00:06:22,444 --> 00:06:26,447
There's rioting in the city, everywhere
8
00:06:26,782 --> 00:06:28,366
This letter has arrived
9
00:06:28,784 --> 00:06:32,119
It's urgent. From the Duke of Malvica
10
00:06:41,129 --> 00:06:44,465
"Dear Fabrizio,
read the terrible news in the paper
11
00:06:50,138 --> 00:06:54,141
"The Piedmontese have landed.
We are lost
12
00:06:56,144 --> 00:07:00,147
"My family and I are taking refuge
in the English ships anchored here
13
00:07:00,482 --> 00:07:02,483
"I'm sure you'll do likewise
14
00:07:07,948 --> 00:07:10,366
"God save our beloved king"
15
00:07:10,534 --> 00:07:11,617
The coward!
16
00:07:16,832 --> 00:07:19,834
An act of piracy was committed
on 11th May...
17
00:07:20,168 --> 00:07:23,170
...when armed men landed at Marsala
18
00:07:23,505 --> 00:07:28,843
Reports say there were about 800,
led by Garibaldi
19
00:07:32,514 --> 00:07:36,851
The brigands carefully avoided
any clash with royalist troops...
20
00:07:37,185 --> 00:07:39,186
...and made for Castelvetrano...
21
00:07:40,188 --> 00:07:44,191
...threatening peaceful inhabitants
and causing pillage and devastation
22
00:07:46,528 --> 00:07:50,865
Paolo, you'll go to the house in Palermo;
empty houses are lost houses
23
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:55,536
No, please, Fabrizio. It's dangerous.
This is war
24
00:08:00,542 --> 00:08:02,877
Francesco Paolo, call Mim�
25
00:08:11,219 --> 00:08:13,220
It's the revolution
26
00:08:39,915 --> 00:08:41,999
Drink this, you'll feel better
27
00:08:50,926 --> 00:08:52,927
He's just coming, father
28
00:08:55,180 --> 00:08:58,140
Pardon, Excellency.
In the garden we've found...
29
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,895
Mim�, tell Don Antonio to harness
the horses to the carriage
30
00:09:08,652 --> 00:09:11,237
I'll go to Palermo after our meal
31
00:09:13,490 --> 00:09:14,615
Father Pirrone...
32
00:09:16,368 --> 00:09:18,953
...you'll accompany me, won't you?
33
00:09:22,165 --> 00:09:24,166
May the Lord protect us
34
00:09:27,504 --> 00:09:31,173
But with the streets full of soldiers, bandits...
35
00:09:33,844 --> 00:09:37,847
You'll spend two hours with your colleagues.
We'll return at eleven
36
00:09:53,196 --> 00:09:56,198
We eat in half an hour
37
00:09:57,534 --> 00:09:59,201
All of you
38
00:10:18,221 --> 00:10:19,889
What are we going to do?
39
00:10:20,223 --> 00:10:24,560
Save us, Queen of Heaven,
mother of mercies...
40
00:10:44,122 --> 00:10:47,583
These swine stink even when
they're dead
41
00:10:47,918 --> 00:10:51,462
Salvatore, did you alert the barracks?
42
00:10:51,922 --> 00:10:55,591
Excellency, we've told them
to come and remove him
43
00:11:15,278 --> 00:11:18,280
What terrible times, Excellency
44
00:11:26,623 --> 00:11:29,625
Look at all the fires on the mountains
45
00:11:32,629 --> 00:11:36,632
- They're the rebels' camps
- I see them, Father
46
00:11:47,310 --> 00:11:50,980
Perhaps Your Excellency is worried
about Don Tancredi
47
00:11:54,609 --> 00:11:58,612
Tancredi should guard against
certain friendships...
48
00:11:58,947 --> 00:12:01,949
...certain dangerous acquaintances
49
00:12:02,284 --> 00:12:05,953
Father, the fault is not Tancredi's;
the fault is the times
50
00:12:07,831 --> 00:12:13,502
A young nobleman cannot even play
cards without making dangerous friends
51
00:12:14,838 --> 00:12:16,839
That's enough now
52
00:12:18,842 --> 00:12:21,844
Still, a little prudence...
53
00:12:25,515 --> 00:12:31,562
Halt! Villa Airoldi road-block
54
00:12:32,522 --> 00:12:36,192
Good evening Your Excellency.
Excuse us
55
00:12:36,526 --> 00:12:40,529
Let the Prince of Salina through
56
00:12:54,544 --> 00:12:58,214
What a beautiful country this would be if...
57
00:12:58,548 --> 00:13:01,550
If there weren't so many Jesuits
58
00:13:13,897 --> 00:13:18,234
I'll come back for you in two hours.
Pray well, Father
59
00:13:46,596 --> 00:13:50,266
- Where can we go?
- To the tavern, by the port
60
00:13:55,939 --> 00:13:57,940
Good evening, handsome
61
00:13:58,942 --> 00:14:01,610
Melina, that's not for you
62
00:14:01,945 --> 00:14:03,612
Mind your own business
63
00:14:07,951 --> 00:14:09,952
My big prince
64
00:14:42,986 --> 00:14:44,653
Good day, uncle
65
00:14:44,988 --> 00:14:49,283
Tancredi. What were you up to last night?
66
00:14:49,617 --> 00:14:52,619
Nothing at all, uncle
67
00:14:52,954 --> 00:14:56,290
I was with friends; a virtuous night
68
00:14:56,624 --> 00:15:00,002
Not like some I know, who went
to amuse themselves...
69
00:15:00,545 --> 00:15:02,296
...down in Palermo
70
00:15:02,630 --> 00:15:04,840
And who would they be?
71
00:15:05,300 --> 00:15:07,301
You yourself, uncle
72
00:15:07,635 --> 00:15:12,306
I saw you talking to the sergeant
at the road-block
73
00:15:13,641 --> 00:15:15,642
A fine thing, at your age
74
00:15:15,977 --> 00:15:19,229
And with a reverend father, too
75
00:15:19,647 --> 00:15:21,315
Such libertines
76
00:15:21,649 --> 00:15:23,984
Well, after all, it's true
77
00:15:44,672 --> 00:15:49,343
Why are you dressed like that?
For a masked ball in the morning?
78
00:15:49,969 --> 00:15:53,806
I'm going soon, uncle.
I came to say farewell
79
00:15:54,349 --> 00:15:59,103
Why? Where are you going?
Not a duel...
80
00:15:59,687 --> 00:16:03,357
Yes. A great duel, uncle, with the king
81
00:16:03,691 --> 00:16:06,985
I'm going to the mountains, to Ficuzza
82
00:16:07,695 --> 00:16:10,614
Great things are beginning and
I don't want to stay at home
83
00:16:12,033 --> 00:16:13,826
They'd seize me here, anyway
84
00:16:14,327 --> 00:16:18,997
You are mad to join them;
they're Mafiosi, all swindlers
85
00:16:21,668 --> 00:16:24,920
A Falconeri should be with us, for the king
86
00:16:25,338 --> 00:16:27,673
Certainly, for the king
87
00:16:28,341 --> 00:16:32,010
But which king? You've said it yourself, uncle
88
00:16:32,679 --> 00:16:37,683
If King Ferdinando were still alive...
But Franceschiello? No, uncle
89
00:16:38,685 --> 00:16:42,688
You think the Piedmont man they call
"The Gentleman" will be much better?
90
00:16:43,022 --> 00:16:45,691
A Turin dialect instead of Neapolitan,
that's all
91
00:16:46,025 --> 00:16:49,027
Then what about the republic of
Peppino Mazzini?
92
00:16:50,029 --> 00:16:55,367
If we weren't here, that lot would
soon foist the republic on you
93
00:16:56,703 --> 00:17:01,039
If we want everything to remain
as it is, everything has to change
94
00:17:02,041 --> 00:17:03,709
Have I explained it?
95
00:17:08,047 --> 00:17:11,383
Good-bye, uncle. I'll return with the tricolor
96
00:17:13,386 --> 00:17:17,389
The tricolor!
You soil your lips with that word
97
00:17:17,724 --> 00:17:22,394
What is it compared with our
golden lily banner?
98
00:17:23,062 --> 00:17:25,397
What do you hope to gain
from those colors?
99
00:17:25,732 --> 00:17:28,400
Wait, uncle, you're deluding yourself
100
00:17:30,069 --> 00:17:31,403
Good-bye, uncle
101
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,707
I'll see you soon
102
00:18:29,754 --> 00:18:32,422
Tancredi! Wait!
103
00:18:41,099 --> 00:18:45,102
What are you doing?
Subsidizing the revolution now?
104
00:18:46,104 --> 00:18:48,438
Thank you very much, uncle
105
00:18:48,773 --> 00:18:51,775
Kiss my aunt for me
106
00:19:05,790 --> 00:19:09,126
Concetta, I'll be back soon
107
00:20:04,057 --> 00:20:06,725
Has Your Excellency come for confession?
108
00:20:07,060 --> 00:20:10,062
Confession? It's not Saturday
109
00:20:16,402 --> 00:20:19,738
Excellency, listen to me.
Make confession
110
00:20:23,409 --> 00:20:28,080
Father, there is no need;
you know everything already
111
00:20:34,796 --> 00:20:37,923
Confession is not the telling of
facts, but the repentance of sins
112
00:20:38,091 --> 00:20:40,384
I know!
113
00:20:43,054 --> 00:20:46,390
What do you expect of me?
I'm a vigorous man
114
00:20:46,724 --> 00:20:51,770
Can I be content with a woman who in
bed crosses herself before an embrace?
115
00:20:52,397 --> 00:20:55,065
And who afterwards can only say:
"Jesus Mary"
116
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,068
I've had seven children by her... seven
117
00:20:59,070 --> 00:21:02,906
And, Father, I've never seen her navel
118
00:21:05,410 --> 00:21:07,911
Is that fair?
119
00:21:08,413 --> 00:21:10,872
Is it, Father? She is the sinner
120
00:21:18,423 --> 00:21:21,425
I was too brusque
121
00:21:22,427 --> 00:21:25,095
Do not lose your goodwill towards me
122
00:21:29,434 --> 00:21:32,686
But listen to me: Confess
123
00:21:33,104 --> 00:21:36,106
I haven't any intention of confessing
124
00:21:37,442 --> 00:21:39,109
At least, not today
125
00:21:42,113 --> 00:21:45,115
I've made some important political discoveries
126
00:21:46,117 --> 00:21:50,454
Do you know what's happening in
our country? Nothing
127
00:21:51,122 --> 00:21:54,124
A barely noticeable substitution
of ruling groups
128
00:21:55,460 --> 00:22:00,464
The middle class doesn't want to
destroy us, but to take our place...
129
00:22:00,798 --> 00:22:06,136
...more politely, and even put
thousands of ducats into our pockets
130
00:22:06,804 --> 00:22:09,806
And then the rest can stay as it is
131
00:22:10,808 --> 00:22:14,311
Father, ours is a country of compromises
132
00:22:15,146 --> 00:22:18,815
In short, you nobles will come to
an agreement with the liberals...
133
00:22:19,484 --> 00:22:21,485
...even with the Masons...
134
00:22:22,153 --> 00:22:24,946
...at our expense; yes,
at the expense of the church...
135
00:22:25,490 --> 00:22:27,824
...because it's clear that all our wealth...
136
00:22:28,159 --> 00:22:32,829
...the patrimony of the poor, will be
divided among the insolent ringleaders
137
00:22:34,832 --> 00:22:40,170
Who then will feed the unhappy
people whom the church still supports?
138
00:22:40,838 --> 00:22:44,174
What will be done to placate
that desperate horde?
139
00:22:44,842 --> 00:22:50,514
They will be given one piece of your
land, then another, finally all of it
140
00:22:56,187 --> 00:23:01,525
Our Lord healed the physically blind,
but what about the mentally blind?
141
00:23:08,533 --> 00:23:11,535
We're not mentally blind, dear Father
142
00:23:13,871 --> 00:23:18,208
Just human beings in a world of radical change
143
00:23:19,210 --> 00:23:20,877
What must we do?
144
00:23:21,838 --> 00:23:25,507
The church has been given an
explicit promise of immortality
145
00:23:25,842 --> 00:23:27,843
We, as a social class, have not
146
00:23:28,177 --> 00:23:32,848
A palliative that promises us another
hundred years is the same as eternity
147
00:23:34,183 --> 00:23:38,520
Beyond what we can caress with our
hands we have no obligations
148
00:23:38,855 --> 00:23:44,067
The church must have obligations,
because it is destined not to die
149
00:23:44,527 --> 00:23:47,028
In its disappearance there might be
some solace
150
00:23:47,530 --> 00:23:50,866
Do you believe, Father,
that if one day the church...
151
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,203
...could save itself by sacrificing
us it would hesitate to do so?
152
00:23:57,540 --> 00:24:00,542
It wouldn't hesitate, and it would do well
153
00:24:11,554 --> 00:24:14,890
You'll have two sins to confess to me
on Saturday
154
00:24:15,224 --> 00:24:19,060
A carnal sin last night
and a spiritual one today
155
00:24:20,897 --> 00:24:24,232
Look, Father, how beautiful
156
00:24:25,568 --> 00:24:30,572
It will take more than King Victor
Emmanuel to change this magic view
157
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,800
Long live Garibaldi's men!
158
00:29:05,472 --> 00:29:06,764
Help me!
159
00:29:12,438 --> 00:29:17,025
- He's a policeman, a murderer!
- We dealt with him ourselves!
160
00:29:27,453 --> 00:29:28,453
The cavalry!
161
00:29:28,787 --> 00:29:31,456
Hold your fire!
162
00:29:59,818 --> 00:30:02,153
Platoons, forward march!
163
00:31:10,097 --> 00:31:13,891
Hey, nurse, come here!
164
00:31:15,561 --> 00:31:17,312
Where have they gone?
165
00:31:17,896 --> 00:31:19,897
By now they'll be at the port
166
00:32:34,264 --> 00:32:35,765
What do you say, Father?
167
00:32:39,937 --> 00:32:44,232
Will these glorious new times
give us better roads?
168
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,282
Well, the government...
169
00:34:20,037 --> 00:34:22,705
Clear the road!
170
00:34:25,709 --> 00:34:29,170
Nobody can pass. It's blocked
171
00:34:30,047 --> 00:34:33,049
The road to Bisaquino is closed
172
00:34:39,848 --> 00:34:44,393
I'm sorry, it's forbidden to pass.
You can't go any further
173
00:34:52,694 --> 00:34:55,363
Evidently our permit is no good
174
00:34:55,697 --> 00:35:01,369
I'm not saying that. We've been told
all civilian permits are suspended
175
00:35:02,371 --> 00:35:06,707
If I tell you to turn back,
you have to turn back!
176
00:35:07,042 --> 00:35:10,044
Clear the road so the carriages
can proceed
177
00:35:12,714 --> 00:35:15,383
Nobody gets through here!
178
00:35:15,717 --> 00:35:19,053
I'm Captain Prince Tancredi Falconari.
I fought at Palermo with you
179
00:35:19,388 --> 00:35:21,055
Captain, I have my orders
180
00:35:21,390 --> 00:35:25,893
This is an order, too. Clear the way!
181
00:36:33,712 --> 00:36:37,048
You live among the nobility
182
00:36:37,382 --> 00:36:41,052
What do they say about this
huge conflagration?
183
00:36:41,720 --> 00:36:47,058
What does our fierce,
proud Prince of Salina say?
184
00:36:49,728 --> 00:36:55,066
The nobility, as you call them,
aren't easy to understand
185
00:36:56,401 --> 00:37:01,072
They live in a world apart,
not created by God...
186
00:37:02,074 --> 00:37:06,410
...but by themselves, during centuries
of very special experiences...
187
00:37:06,745 --> 00:37:10,081
...of troubles and joys - their joys
188
00:37:10,415 --> 00:37:15,086
They get upset or are fascinated
by things that to you and me...
189
00:37:15,420 --> 00:37:19,423
...don't matter at all,
but which for them are vital
190
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,429
I don't mean the nobles are bad,
on the contrary
191
00:37:26,765 --> 00:37:29,100
They're different
192
00:37:29,434 --> 00:37:34,105
They don't care about certain things
which are very important to us...
193
00:37:34,773 --> 00:37:37,441
...and maybe they have fears
we're ignorant of
194
00:37:38,110 --> 00:37:40,111
The Prince of Salina, for example
195
00:37:40,445 --> 00:37:45,741
He couldn't give up his holiday in
Donnafugata; that's where we're going
196
00:37:48,745 --> 00:37:53,082
But if you ask him what he thinks,
of the revolution...
197
00:37:54,418 --> 00:37:59,463
...he says there's no revolution,
everything will go on as before
198
00:37:59,631 --> 00:38:05,094
That's the last straw
199
00:38:05,762 --> 00:38:08,431
Let's read the breviary; it's better
200
00:38:09,766 --> 00:38:11,100
Let's see...
201
00:38:13,770 --> 00:38:15,771
Psalm 45
202
00:38:16,106 --> 00:38:21,110
My heart overfloweth, I speak of the
things I have made touching the king
203
00:38:21,445 --> 00:38:24,113
My tongue is the pen of a ready writer
204
00:38:24,448 --> 00:38:28,117
Thou art fairer than the children of men
205
00:38:28,452 --> 00:38:32,455
Grace is poured into thy lips,
God hath blessed thee for ever
206
00:39:45,195 --> 00:39:47,196
Quickly, lads
207
00:39:53,537 --> 00:39:58,415
Spread it neatly. You fetch the bottles,
and you the glasses
208
00:40:14,891 --> 00:40:19,895
We hope that everything is just
as you want it
209
00:40:20,230 --> 00:40:23,232
I'm delighted to see you again, Excellency
210
00:40:24,234 --> 00:40:26,235
Now we'll just rest a little
211
00:40:26,570 --> 00:40:28,904
You can eat beneath the trees
212
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:34,869
We'll leave for Donnafugata in
an hour. Tell me about the soldiers...
213
00:40:35,871 --> 00:40:38,205
It's worse than in Algeria
214
00:40:38,540 --> 00:40:41,876
It's different from Algeria, my dear
215
00:40:48,550 --> 00:40:51,218
Wouldn't you like to refresh yourself?
216
00:40:55,098 --> 00:40:57,224
Try bathing your temples
217
00:41:12,240 --> 00:41:16,243
Let's join the others,
or we'll find nothing left to eat
218
00:41:39,267 --> 00:41:40,935
Aren't you hungry?
219
00:42:04,292 --> 00:42:09,380
I told everyone: "His Excellency
won't leave Palermo this year
220
00:42:09,631 --> 00:42:12,967
"How do you expect them to travel
in times like these?
221
00:42:13,301 --> 00:42:18,305
"Who knows what will happen to
His Excellency? May God protect him!"
222
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:22,476
But you're all safe and sound
223
00:42:22,644 --> 00:42:23,978
I thank God
224
00:42:24,312 --> 00:42:29,316
What did you expect to happen to us?
It was all very simple
225
00:42:31,987 --> 00:42:35,656
In fact, a few days after Garibaldi's
entry into Palermo...
226
00:42:35,991 --> 00:42:38,993
...Tancredi brought home
a nice Tuscan general...
227
00:42:39,327 --> 00:42:41,996
...who wanted to admire
the frescos at the villa...
228
00:42:42,330 --> 00:42:46,333
...and he proved useful
in obtaining permits for Donnafugata
229
00:42:48,336 --> 00:42:53,007
We are most happy to receive you
in our home, General
230
00:42:53,341 --> 00:42:55,342
Thank you, Excellency
231
00:43:04,352 --> 00:43:08,689
He called you "Excellency";
he's never broken Garibaldi's orders before
232
00:43:20,035 --> 00:43:24,371
General, my nephew has told me that
you would like to see the frescos
233
00:43:24,706 --> 00:43:28,167
- Very much, Excellency
- Let's do it at once
234
00:43:30,795 --> 00:43:35,674
In the centre, Jupiter and Juno,
Mars, Venus and Mercury
235
00:43:36,593 --> 00:43:40,929
On the other side, Tethys preceded
by a group of tritons and dryads
236
00:43:41,347 --> 00:43:47,019
Apollo surrounded by clouds, and
all exalting the house of Salina's glory
237
00:44:04,704 --> 00:44:07,039
Would you like another mint caramel?
238
00:44:07,373 --> 00:44:10,042
Thank you, they're just the sort I like
239
00:44:10,376 --> 00:44:12,377
I brought them especially for you
240
00:44:29,729 --> 00:44:34,399
How pale you are.
Was your wound really not serious?
241
00:44:34,734 --> 00:44:36,068
Pardon?
242
00:44:45,787 --> 00:44:50,249
It's worth being wounded
to become promoted on the battlefield
243
00:45:22,615 --> 00:45:24,658
The carriages are coming!
244
00:46:41,986 --> 00:46:45,197
I am happy to welcome your excellencies
245
00:46:45,740 --> 00:46:47,741
Don Onofrio! How are we?
246
00:46:47,992 --> 00:46:50,494
Excellency, I hand you back the palace...
247
00:46:50,662 --> 00:46:53,664
...in the exact state in which it was left
248
00:47:16,354 --> 00:47:20,357
I am proud to shake the hand of
the hero wounded fighting at Palermo
249
00:47:20,692 --> 00:47:24,361
Wounded? They made me a captain
because I got a gnat in my eye
250
00:47:27,031 --> 00:47:29,491
You've done much for the cause,
Don Calogero
251
00:47:30,034 --> 00:47:32,369
Crispi speaks very highly of you
252
00:47:40,712 --> 00:47:44,381
Dear Teresina,
what a pleasure to see you again
253
00:47:46,384 --> 00:47:49,720
And you, of course, Don Ciccio.
What news?
254
00:47:50,054 --> 00:47:53,724
News? I haven't any, Excellency
255
00:47:54,058 --> 00:47:56,393
Will you excuse me now?
256
00:51:26,312 --> 00:51:31,316
Remember to invite them to dinner tonight,
with their wives
257
00:51:32,652 --> 00:51:35,320
- Why the wives?
- It's better
258
00:51:36,656 --> 00:51:39,991
Invite Don Calogero and tell him
to bring his wife
259
00:51:40,326 --> 00:51:42,327
The lawyer with his wife
260
00:51:42,662 --> 00:51:45,664
Don Ciccio, who thank God
hasn't a wife
261
00:51:46,332 --> 00:51:48,667
All the others to come after dinner
262
00:52:55,610 --> 00:52:58,945
- What is it?
- It's Mim�, Excellency
263
00:53:01,240 --> 00:53:05,285
Father Pirrone asks to see you
at once
264
00:53:07,955 --> 00:53:10,290
All right. Show him in
265
00:53:17,632 --> 00:53:20,383
I beg your pardon, Excellency.
I didn't know
266
00:53:20,676 --> 00:53:22,510
Don't be shocked, Father
267
00:53:22,970 --> 00:53:26,556
You're used to souls being bared;
bare bodies are much more innocent
268
00:53:26,974 --> 00:53:29,309
Just give me the towel
269
00:53:40,988 --> 00:53:43,114
Go on, be brave, Father
270
00:53:49,664 --> 00:53:51,331
Brisker, Father
271
00:53:55,002 --> 00:53:58,338
Take my advice:
Take a bath yourself now and then
272
00:54:01,008 --> 00:54:03,009
Take a seat, then
273
00:54:07,014 --> 00:54:09,683
Tell me why you wanted to talk
to me so urgently
274
00:54:14,021 --> 00:54:18,024
I have been entrusted with a very
delicate mission
275
00:54:19,026 --> 00:54:23,029
A person very dear to you wanted to
open her heart to me, to tell you...
276
00:54:23,364 --> 00:54:29,035
She has faith, perhaps mistaken,
in the esteem with which you honor me
277
00:54:29,370 --> 00:54:30,995
Can't you be more concise?
278
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:36,042
Who are you referring to?
The Princess?
279
00:54:36,377 --> 00:54:40,380
No, Excellency. The Princess is very
tired and she is resting now
280
00:54:40,715 --> 00:54:43,383
It concerns signorina Concetta
281
00:54:45,720 --> 00:54:46,886
She is in love
282
00:54:48,723 --> 00:54:52,058
Signorina Concetta? But how...
283
00:54:53,018 --> 00:54:55,019
Oh, such foolishness
284
00:54:59,984 --> 00:55:01,484
I regret having disturbed you
285
00:55:03,112 --> 00:55:05,071
I did not think...
286
00:55:06,031 --> 00:55:09,701
At forty-five a man may still think
he's young...
287
00:55:10,035 --> 00:55:14,038
...until he realizes his children
are old enough to fall in love
288
00:55:14,707 --> 00:55:17,917
Then old age suddenly comes
crashing down on him
289
00:55:22,715 --> 00:55:28,720
You haven't asked me who
the young man is, whom Concetta...
290
00:55:29,054 --> 00:55:31,055
There's no need
291
00:55:36,395 --> 00:55:40,064
Why didn't that stupid girl
come to tell me?
292
00:55:41,734 --> 00:55:45,737
Well, in your opinion,
what should I say?
293
00:55:48,407 --> 00:55:52,702
The desire to found a Christian
family is most welcome to the church
294
00:55:53,078 --> 00:55:56,080
The presence of Our Lord
at the wedding in Cana...
295
00:55:56,582 --> 00:56:00,084
Let us not digress, Father. I intend
to speak about this marriage...
296
00:56:00,419 --> 00:56:03,755
...not the wedding in Cana,
nor marriage in general
297
00:56:04,757 --> 00:56:08,593
Has Don Tancredi made
a definite proposal? When?
298
00:56:09,094 --> 00:56:12,764
Well, Excellency, not actually a proposal
299
00:56:13,098 --> 00:56:18,561
But Concetta has no doubts.
His attentions, his looks...
300
00:56:19,104 --> 00:56:23,274
...certain words...
she is sure he loves her...
301
00:56:23,442 --> 00:56:26,110
...and feels he will propose
at any moment
302
00:56:26,445 --> 00:56:30,615
Don't worry, Father,
there's no immediate danger
303
00:56:30,783 --> 00:56:34,118
These are the fantasies of
a romantic schoolgirl
304
00:56:35,496 --> 00:56:37,497
But why "danger", Excellency?
305
00:56:38,123 --> 00:56:44,295
Can you imagine her as an ambassador's
wife in Vienna, or St. Petersburg?
306
00:56:44,463 --> 00:56:47,131
I love Concetta. I like her
307
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:50,468
So placid, so submissive
308
00:56:50,803 --> 00:56:54,472
But Tancredi has a great future
before him
309
00:56:56,225 --> 00:57:00,979
How can Concetta, so passively virtuous,
so shy and reserved...
310
00:57:01,146 --> 00:57:06,484
...help an ambitious husband ascend
the slippery steps of a new society?
311
00:57:06,819 --> 00:57:08,820
Tancredi will find money useful
312
00:57:09,822 --> 00:57:12,824
Concetta has her dowry, of course
313
00:57:13,158 --> 00:57:16,828
But the Salina fortune will have
to be divided into seven parts
314
00:57:17,162 --> 00:57:21,165
I repeat, seven parts.
Tancredi needs something else entirely
315
00:57:24,503 --> 00:57:26,838
One of the Sutera girls, perhaps?
316
00:57:27,506 --> 00:57:32,969
Yes, I know. They're so ugly,
poor things, but so rich
317
00:57:34,513 --> 00:57:37,181
But what? Love?
318
00:57:38,809 --> 00:57:44,397
Of course, love. Fire and flame
for one year, ashes for thirty
319
00:57:45,608 --> 00:57:49,235
I also know what love is
320
00:57:50,571 --> 00:57:54,574
Excellency, which clothes will
you wear for dinner?
321
00:57:56,493 --> 00:58:00,163
Father, you'll tell Concetta
I'm not at all annoyed...
322
00:58:00,497 --> 00:58:04,167
...but we'll discuss it when we are
sure it's not romantic fantasy
323
00:58:04,835 --> 00:58:07,503
What suit? One for evening wear
324
00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:47,543
Papa! Don Calogero's coming up the stairs -
in tails!
325
00:58:57,221 --> 00:59:00,890
This news has impressed you more
than the landing at Marsala
326
00:59:01,558 --> 00:59:05,228
Don Calogero in white tie;
the sign of the revolution on the march
327
00:59:18,242 --> 00:59:21,411
Yes, it's true, in tails. But look at them
328
00:59:23,706 --> 00:59:25,248
And the shoes
329
00:59:29,586 --> 00:59:34,590
- My wife is unwell; a slight cold
- I'm very sorry
330
00:59:34,925 --> 00:59:40,179
I hope you will excuse me if my
daughter Angelica comes in her place
331
00:59:42,266 --> 00:59:44,600
But certainly. Come in
332
00:59:47,271 --> 00:59:53,276
For a month she's talked of
the pleasure it would give her to come
333
00:59:54,278 --> 00:59:58,281
I remember her well
as a very pretty little girl
334
00:59:58,615 --> 01:00:00,950
We shall be happy to see her again
335
01:00:18,969 --> 01:00:22,346
She will be here in a moment;
she wasn't quite ready
336
01:00:23,015 --> 01:00:26,017
Our house is just over the road,
as you know
337
01:00:26,351 --> 01:00:29,312
Yes, Don Calogero. We'll wait for her
338
01:00:31,857 --> 01:00:35,735
As I told you, the church is
really in a sorry state
339
01:01:19,363 --> 01:01:20,696
Lovely
340
01:01:31,250 --> 01:01:33,042
My Angelica
341
01:01:34,253 --> 01:01:39,382
I haven't seen you for so long;
you have changed... and not for the worse
342
01:01:45,055 --> 01:01:47,390
We are very fortunate,
signorina Angelica...
343
01:01:47,724 --> 01:01:51,394
...to welcome such a lovely flower
into our home
344
01:01:51,562 --> 01:01:56,065
I hope we shall have the pleasure
of seeing you very often
345
01:01:56,233 --> 01:02:03,030
Thank you, Prince. You are as kind to
me as you have always been to Papa
346
01:02:11,707 --> 01:02:14,041
How do you do, signorina Concetta?
347
01:02:14,918 --> 01:02:17,712
Angelica, as children we were never so formal
348
01:02:29,725 --> 01:02:34,061
Your Grace, allow me to present
my daughter Angelica
349
01:02:42,738 --> 01:02:44,780
Dinner is served
350
01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:21,776
Several layers, as tradition demands
351
01:03:27,783 --> 01:03:30,493
- Was the journey very tiring?
- Not unduly
352
01:03:31,119 --> 01:03:34,455
They haven't served you yet,
I'm sorry
353
01:03:36,792 --> 01:03:39,460
- A beautiful daughter
- Yes, Concetta
354
01:03:39,795 --> 01:03:45,132
The villa I'm having built outside
the village will be modest, but...
355
01:03:48,470 --> 01:03:49,679
...very comfortable
356
01:03:52,140 --> 01:03:56,477
How hungry we are;
a good thing we didn't start with soup
357
01:04:01,149 --> 01:04:04,819
Unforgettable days, I tell you
358
01:04:05,153 --> 01:04:08,823
Only one word of command,
from mouth to mouth: Arms and soldiers
359
01:04:09,157 --> 01:04:14,370
The General realized that when
Sicilians get going, they do it well
360
01:04:16,832 --> 01:04:19,834
Why did you join Garibaldi?
361
01:04:21,169 --> 01:04:26,048
"If Garibaldi is your brother-in-arms
he wants only to fight at your side"
362
01:04:26,508 --> 01:04:31,053
Those are his own words. I did not
think it would be so strenuous
363
01:04:32,180 --> 01:04:36,350
I've never walked so much.
Oh, the night march to Gibilrossa...
364
01:04:36,518 --> 01:04:38,519
Did you meet Bixio?
365
01:04:38,854 --> 01:04:40,354
What a determined man
366
01:04:40,856 --> 01:04:43,190
All of them determined and extraordinary
367
01:04:44,526 --> 01:04:49,196
The scene between Bixio and La Masa,
at which I just happened to be present
368
01:04:49,531 --> 01:04:52,783
And I was briefly at the taking of Termini
369
01:05:33,241 --> 01:05:36,243
I enjoyed myself enormously, believe me
370
01:05:36,578 --> 01:05:38,829
We had the biggest laugh on 28th May
371
01:05:39,247 --> 01:05:42,917
The General needed a lookout post
in the Origlione monastery
372
01:05:43,585 --> 01:05:47,588
We knocked, we swore -
nobody answered the door
373
01:05:47,923 --> 01:05:50,925
It was a convent for a closed order of nuns
374
01:05:55,263 --> 01:05:57,264
By the way, Reverend...
375
01:05:57,599 --> 01:06:02,895
...tomorrow we'll pray at the tomb of
the reverend mother Corbera
376
01:06:03,230 --> 01:06:06,899
Excellent. Those good nuns...
377
01:06:07,234 --> 01:06:10,903
...have already been informed
to expect your excellencies
378
01:06:11,238 --> 01:06:15,032
They're in a flurry of preparation
for your visit
379
01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:18,911
We've never missed going there
the day after our arrival
380
01:06:28,588 --> 01:06:31,257
And then? What happened?
381
01:06:34,594 --> 01:06:36,595
I'll tell you
382
01:06:37,264 --> 01:06:40,933
Tassoni, Aldrighetti and I
and someone else...
383
01:06:41,268 --> 01:06:44,395
...tried to break down the door,
to no avail
384
01:06:44,938 --> 01:06:48,274
So we ran to get a beam from
a shelled house nearby
385
01:06:48,608 --> 01:06:52,611
Finally, with an infernal din,
the door gave way
386
01:06:53,947 --> 01:06:55,906
We entered. Everywhere was deserted
387
01:06:56,950 --> 01:06:59,034
Suddenly we heard desperate twitterings...
388
01:06:59,202 --> 01:07:01,078
...from around the corner of a corridor
389
01:07:01,329 --> 01:07:05,457
Taking refuge in the chapel,
the nuns were piled up against the altar
390
01:07:07,294 --> 01:07:11,714
Who knows what they feared from
those ten fed-up young lads
391
01:07:16,761 --> 01:07:19,638
It was comic to see them,
old and ugly as they were...
392
01:07:19,973 --> 01:07:23,976
...with their black habits, startled
eyes, all ready and willing...
393
01:07:24,978 --> 01:07:26,312
...for martyrdom...
394
01:07:26,980 --> 01:07:29,356
...whining like bitches
395
01:07:34,321 --> 01:07:35,821
Our handsome Tassoni yelled:
396
01:07:36,323 --> 01:07:41,660
"We've no time, sisters. We'll return
when you've got us some young novices"
397
01:07:43,663 --> 01:07:46,665
All the boys fell about laughing
398
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:50,669
We left the disappointed nuns and
went to fire on the king's troops
399
01:07:51,004 --> 01:07:53,297
Ten minutes later I was wounded
400
01:07:53,465 --> 01:07:56,759
How I wish I'd been there with you all
401
01:07:58,011 --> 01:08:02,014
If you'd been there, there would have
been no need to wait for novices
402
01:08:43,974 --> 01:08:47,726
Tancredi. Such crude stories should
be told to your confessor
403
01:08:48,228 --> 01:08:50,729
You do not tell them to
young ladies at table
404
01:08:51,398 --> 01:08:53,732
At least, not when I am present
405
01:10:24,783 --> 01:10:28,452
He's right, I agree, and I'll help him, too
406
01:10:36,795 --> 01:10:40,130
But it can't be denied he's a little ignoble
407
01:10:44,427 --> 01:10:47,763
Oh, the lovely Gigogin
408
01:11:04,114 --> 01:11:09,451
At fifteen she made love
409
01:11:11,454 --> 01:11:17,793
Take a step forward,
darling of my heart
410
01:11:19,462 --> 01:11:25,801
At sixteen she got married
411
01:11:26,803 --> 01:11:33,308
Take a step forward,
darling of my heart
412
01:11:35,145 --> 01:11:40,816
At seventeen I left
413
01:11:42,402 --> 01:11:49,158
Take a step forward,
darling of my heart
414
01:11:53,163 --> 01:11:56,165
Long live Italy! Long live Garibaldi!
415
01:12:21,065 --> 01:12:25,194
Don't be so sad, Father.
We aren't following a funeral
416
01:12:26,863 --> 01:12:29,198
The wind... this dreadful wind
417
01:12:29,532 --> 01:12:33,869
Thank the Lord.
Without wind the air would be fetid
418
01:13:00,230 --> 01:13:05,567
You must vote in an orderly fashion.
The first to arrive vote first
419
01:13:12,909 --> 01:13:15,244
The Cavour of Donnafugata
420
01:13:19,582 --> 01:13:24,211
Excellency, this is a great honor for me
421
01:13:43,940 --> 01:13:47,276
No. Father Pirrone is not resident here
422
01:13:48,611 --> 01:13:51,613
Voting is suspended for a few minutes
423
01:13:52,282 --> 01:13:54,366
May I have the honor...
424
01:13:54,951 --> 01:13:57,953
...of inviting you for modest refreshment?
425
01:14:21,269 --> 01:14:24,438
I think the white will be lighter
426
01:14:24,731 --> 01:14:26,773
A late homage to the Bourbon flag
427
01:14:28,943 --> 01:14:33,614
I really cannot drink today;
I have a most aggravating stomach upset
428
01:14:33,948 --> 01:14:37,618
That's of secondary importance on such a day
429
01:14:38,620 --> 01:14:40,954
Thank you, I never drink
430
01:14:45,627 --> 01:14:49,630
Don Calogero, for my part
I accept with pleasure
431
01:14:54,969 --> 01:14:58,972
I'd like to say a few words...
432
01:15:00,308 --> 01:15:03,977
...but great joys, Prince, are silent
433
01:15:35,009 --> 01:15:39,346
It is with great emotion
that I perform this task
434
01:15:42,350 --> 01:15:45,686
I have the very great honor...
435
01:15:46,020 --> 01:15:51,566
...to announce the result of
the plebiscite of our community
436
01:16:01,703 --> 01:16:07,040
In the year 1860, 22nd October,
in Donnafugata...
437
01:16:07,375 --> 01:16:09,710
...at six p. M...
438
01:16:10,044 --> 01:16:13,380
...the municipal electoral
committee met...
439
01:16:13,715 --> 01:16:17,134
...to examine the votes given in
the plebiscite...
440
01:16:17,385 --> 01:16:20,387
...by the population of
this community
441
01:16:21,389 --> 01:16:26,393
The Sicilian people want Italy
to be one and indivisible...
442
01:16:27,061 --> 01:16:29,563
...with Victor Emmanuel...
443
01:16:29,772 --> 01:16:34,067
...as constitutional monarch,
and his legitimate descendants
444
01:16:51,961 --> 01:16:55,422
All the votes having been taken
and due...
445
01:17:09,103 --> 01:17:14,775
All the votes having been taken
and due scrutiny made...
446
01:17:18,112 --> 01:17:20,781
...the following results
have been obtained
447
01:17:21,115 --> 01:17:25,118
Electors registered: 515
448
01:17:26,120 --> 01:17:29,289
Votes cast: 512
449
01:17:30,458 --> 01:17:33,460
Voting YES: 512
450
01:17:36,798 --> 01:17:39,466
Voting NO: Zero
451
01:19:26,532 --> 01:19:30,535
And you, Don Ciccio,
how did you vote on the 21st?
452
01:19:37,543 --> 01:19:42,088
What are you afraid of?
There's only us, the wind and the dogs
453
01:19:42,882 --> 01:19:45,884
Excuse me, but your question is pointless
454
01:19:46,218 --> 01:19:49,888
You know very well everyone in
Donnafugata votes YES
455
01:19:50,890 --> 01:19:54,559
It's even said that you advised
waverers to vote that way
456
01:19:54,894 --> 01:19:56,227
That's very true
457
01:19:58,230 --> 01:19:59,898
So you voted YES?
458
01:20:13,913 --> 01:20:17,248
No, Excellency. I voted NO
459
01:20:18,584 --> 01:20:20,502
No, a hundred times no
460
01:20:21,253 --> 01:20:24,589
All right, I know what you told me
461
01:20:25,257 --> 01:20:30,595
For necessity, unity and opportunity.
Perhaps you were right
462
01:20:30,930 --> 01:20:34,265
I don't understand politics and
I leave these things to others
463
01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:37,936
But Ciccio Tumeo is a gentleman
464
01:20:39,605 --> 01:20:44,609
A failed artist, poor and miserable,
with worn-out trousers...
465
01:20:45,945 --> 01:20:51,282
...but I hadn't forgotten benefits
received, you know that, Excellency
466
01:20:52,284 --> 01:20:55,620
It was Queen Isabella,
the Spanish one...
467
01:20:56,288 --> 01:20:59,958
...who then was Duchess of Calabria -
she made me study...
468
01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:03,962
...and allowed me to be where
I am today...
469
01:21:04,296 --> 01:21:08,633
...organist at the Holy Church, paid
by the kindness of Your Excellency
470
01:21:12,972 --> 01:21:17,308
In the years when our need was great,
my mother sent an entreaty to Court...
471
01:21:18,728 --> 01:21:22,313
...and financial assistance arrived,
as sure as death
472
01:21:23,983 --> 01:21:29,654
If those kings and queens looked down
from heaven, what would they say?
473
01:21:31,657 --> 01:21:36,661
That the son of Leonardo Tomeo
betrayed them? No!
474
01:21:37,329 --> 01:21:39,372
No, Excellency
475
01:21:39,999 --> 01:21:43,293
Thank goodness,
the truth is known in paradise
476
01:21:48,466 --> 01:21:50,925
I admire your loyalty and devotion
477
01:21:51,343 --> 01:21:56,681
But understand that people are over-
excited by this Garibaldi's victory
478
01:21:59,018 --> 01:22:02,687
The plebiscite was the only and urgent
remedy against anarchy. Believe me
479
01:22:03,355 --> 01:22:05,690
For us it's only a lesser evil
480
01:22:07,359 --> 01:22:09,360
The Savoyards, basically...
481
01:22:10,696 --> 01:22:12,697
...are a monarchy
482
01:22:13,699 --> 01:22:17,327
The interests of the people you love,
to whom you are devoted...
483
01:22:17,661 --> 01:22:21,331
...emerge from these events thwarted,
I agree...
484
01:22:22,666 --> 01:22:25,001
...but still alive, still valid
485
01:22:28,672 --> 01:22:31,007
Something had to change...
486
01:22:33,344 --> 01:22:36,346
...so that everything might remain
as it was before
487
01:22:38,349 --> 01:22:44,354
The revolution's work is done.
Let's hope new Italy can live and prosper
488
01:22:46,357 --> 01:22:48,441
But I voted NO
489
01:22:49,026 --> 01:22:53,696
The town hall pigs swallowed
my opinion and shat it out as they chose
490
01:22:56,033 --> 01:22:59,369
I said "black" and
they've made me say "white"
491
01:23:01,038 --> 01:23:05,708
I was a "loyal subject"
and I've become a "foul Bourbon"
492
01:23:07,044 --> 01:23:09,379
Now, they're all Savoyards
493
01:23:10,381 --> 01:23:15,385
Savoyards! I eat them for breakfast!
494
01:23:22,393 --> 01:23:26,396
Tell me something.
You see so many in the district
495
01:23:27,398 --> 01:23:30,733
What do you really think of Don Calogero?
496
01:23:32,403 --> 01:23:36,739
I thought I'd shown my opinion
clearly enough
497
01:23:37,741 --> 01:23:42,078
I'd be quite interested to know
the truth about him and his family
498
01:23:45,416 --> 01:23:51,087
The truth, Excellency,
is that Don Calogero is very rich...
499
01:23:52,756 --> 01:23:55,091
...and also very influential
500
01:23:56,427 --> 01:24:00,763
Avaricious, and fiendishly intelligent, too
501
01:24:02,099 --> 01:24:08,104
You should have seen him in April
and May, swooping about like a bat
502
01:24:09,106 --> 01:24:13,776
In a carriage, riding a mule,
or on foot, rain or shine
503
01:24:15,112 --> 01:24:17,780
Wherever he went,
secret groups were formed...
504
01:24:18,115 --> 01:24:21,451
...preparing the way for those
who were to come
505
01:24:21,785 --> 01:24:25,121
A scourge of God, Excellency
506
01:24:26,123 --> 01:24:29,792
We've only seen the start of
Don Calogero's career
507
01:24:30,127 --> 01:24:34,797
In a few months, he'll be a member
of the parliament in Turin
508
01:24:36,467 --> 01:24:40,803
In a few years, when the church's
property is auctioned off...
509
01:24:41,138 --> 01:24:43,473
...for a handful of coins...
510
01:24:43,807 --> 01:24:47,810
...he'll pick up their land at
Fondacello...
511
01:24:50,147 --> 01:24:53,816
...and become the biggest landowner
in the province
512
01:24:54,151 --> 01:24:57,820
There, that's who Don Calogero is...
513
01:24:58,489 --> 01:25:02,158
...an example of the new man
514
01:25:03,827 --> 01:25:06,120
It's a pity he has to be like that
515
01:25:12,169 --> 01:25:16,172
And the rest of the family?
What are the others like?
516
01:25:16,507 --> 01:25:20,510
Nobody has seen Calogero's wife
for years
517
01:25:21,512 --> 01:25:23,054
Except myself, perhaps
518
01:25:23,514 --> 01:25:28,184
She comes out only to go to first Mass,
at five, when no one's about
519
01:25:29,853 --> 01:25:33,189
Once I got up early specially,
just to see her
520
01:25:33,857 --> 01:25:38,528
Word of honor,
she's as beautiful as the sun
521
01:25:39,863 --> 01:25:45,201
You can't blame him, cockroach though
he is, for keeping her from other men
522
01:25:47,204 --> 01:25:50,540
But even from the best-guarded houses...
523
01:25:50,874 --> 01:25:53,876
...word trickles out, servants talk
524
01:25:54,962 --> 01:26:00,216
It seems that Donna Bastiana
is a kind of animal
525
01:26:01,552 --> 01:26:05,555
Illiterate, can't tell the time,
she hardly knows how to speak
526
01:26:05,889 --> 01:26:08,891
She's incapable, too,
of loving her daughter
527
01:26:11,562 --> 01:26:14,230
Good for bed, and that's all
528
01:26:14,565 --> 01:26:19,861
Besides, it can't be otherwise.
Do you know whose daughter she was?
529
01:26:20,863 --> 01:26:23,531
One of your share-croppers at Runci
530
01:26:24,533 --> 01:26:27,201
Peppe Giunta his name was
531
01:26:27,870 --> 01:26:33,750
He was so foul-smelling and uncouth,
everyone called him Peppe Shit
532
01:26:35,210 --> 01:26:37,545
Excuse the word, Excellency
533
01:26:38,213 --> 01:26:42,216
Two years after Don Calogero
ran off with Bastiana...
534
01:26:42,551 --> 01:26:48,222
...Peppe was found dead with
twelve shotgun pellets in his back
535
01:26:53,771 --> 01:26:56,564
And I hoped that Tancredi
would marry Concetta
536
01:26:56,899 --> 01:27:00,568
He's a traitor, like all such liberals
537
01:27:01,236 --> 01:27:04,906
First he betrayed the king, and now us
538
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:08,910
He with his false face...
539
01:27:09,244 --> 01:27:13,915
...with his words dripping honey
and his actions dripping poison
540
01:27:14,249 --> 01:27:16,918
This is what happens...
541
01:27:17,252 --> 01:27:21,255
...when you take into your house
people not of your own blood
542
01:27:33,268 --> 01:27:37,605
I always said so,
but nobody listens to me
543
01:27:37,940 --> 01:27:42,610
I never could stand that dandy;
you alone were enamored of him
544
01:27:43,821 --> 01:27:47,281
And now he has the effrontery to ask
you, his uncle, Prince of Salina...
545
01:27:47,616 --> 01:27:51,786
...father of the girl he's deceived,
to take his proposal to that rogue...
546
01:27:52,287 --> 01:27:57,625
...the father of that trollop...
Fabrizio, you shall not do it!
547
01:28:04,591 --> 01:28:08,928
You don't know what you're saying.
Angelica is not a trollop
548
01:28:10,931 --> 01:28:15,601
She may become one, but now she's like
any other girl, only more beautiful...
549
01:28:15,936 --> 01:28:19,272
...who simply wants to make
a good marriage
550
01:28:19,606 --> 01:28:23,484
Maybe she's a little in love with our
Tancredi, as they all are, after all
551
01:28:23,652 --> 01:28:25,987
And she has a lot of money, Stella
552
01:28:27,322 --> 01:28:31,325
Our money, largely, administered well,
too well even, by Don Calogero
553
01:28:31,660 --> 01:28:33,411
Tancredi needs that money
554
01:28:33,996 --> 01:28:37,999
He's a nobleman, ambitious, spendthrift.
He needs a lot of money
555
01:28:39,418 --> 01:28:43,129
As for Concetta, he's never said
anything to her, so he's no traitor
556
01:28:43,672 --> 01:28:49,010
He moves with his times, that's all;
both in politics and in private life
557
01:28:50,679 --> 01:28:55,349
Besides, he's the dearest young man
I know. Even you know that
558
01:29:36,725 --> 01:29:41,395
I want no whimpering in my house,
either in my room or in my bed
559
01:29:42,731 --> 01:29:46,067
No more "You shall not do it."
I make the decisions
560
01:29:46,401 --> 01:29:50,404
I decided this long ago.
And now no more about it
561
01:29:59,748 --> 01:30:01,082
Now let us sleep
562
01:30:05,087 --> 01:30:08,756
Tomorrow I am getting up early
to go hunting
563
01:30:45,752 --> 01:30:50,756
You've told me about them all:
Wild mothers and faecal grandfathers...
564
01:30:52,092 --> 01:30:55,761
...but nothing about what interests
me, about Angelica
565
01:30:58,098 --> 01:31:01,434
There's nothing to say;
she speaks for herself
566
01:31:01,768 --> 01:31:07,773
Her mother's beauty without
her grandfather's stench. A real lady
567
01:31:09,109 --> 01:31:14,113
When she returned from college
she played me the old mazurka I wrote
568
01:31:14,781 --> 01:31:19,452
She played badly,
but to see her was a delight...
569
01:31:19,786 --> 01:31:24,457
...with her black hair, those eyes,
that skin, that bosom
570
01:31:25,792 --> 01:31:28,127
Some difference from the stink of goats
571
01:31:28,462 --> 01:31:31,464
Her sheets must have
the fragrance of paradise
572
01:31:31,798 --> 01:31:34,800
Calm down, Don Ciccio
573
01:31:35,469 --> 01:31:39,180
From now on you'll have to speak
of Angelica with all due respect
574
01:31:39,514 --> 01:31:45,478
This very day I'm asking Calogero for
her hand for my nephew Tancredi
575
01:31:46,480 --> 01:31:50,149
You're the first to know,
but you'll pay for this privilege
576
01:31:50,484 --> 01:31:53,486
You'll be locked up in the gun-room
with the dogs...
577
01:31:53,820 --> 01:31:58,157
...until after Calogero's visit;
I want nothing to leak out in advance
578
01:32:00,160 --> 01:32:02,828
This is disgraceful, obscene
579
01:32:03,497 --> 01:32:09,502
He can't marry the daughter of your enemies.
They've always opposed you
580
01:32:10,504 --> 01:32:16,175
If he seduced her, that would be
a conquest, but this is pure surrender
581
01:32:18,136 --> 01:32:21,764
It's the end of the Falconeri family
and the Salinas
582
01:32:35,529 --> 01:32:39,532
The marriage is not the end of anything,
but the start
583
01:32:40,534 --> 01:32:42,868
And it's in our best traditions
584
01:32:45,872 --> 01:32:48,874
These are things you can't understand
585
01:32:51,211 --> 01:32:55,548
Let's go home.
And we're agreed, aren't we?
586
01:33:41,887 --> 01:33:45,931
Let there be no misunderstanding,
or a big fuss over a little kiss
587
01:33:47,601 --> 01:33:50,603
Remember, it was I
who asked you to come here
588
01:33:57,611 --> 01:34:02,281
I wish to tell you about a letter
written by my nephew...
589
01:34:04,534 --> 01:34:07,620
...received this very night, in fact
590
01:34:08,955 --> 01:34:14,293
In it he declares his love
for your daughter...
591
01:34:16,963 --> 01:34:19,298
...and asks me to ask you...
592
01:34:20,967 --> 01:34:23,969
...officially, for Angelica's hand
593
01:34:34,981 --> 01:34:37,942
Now it's your turn
to declare your intentions
594
01:34:43,615 --> 01:34:46,951
Excuse me, Prince
595
01:34:48,620 --> 01:34:52,623
This lovely surprise has
robbed me of speech
596
01:34:53,291 --> 01:34:57,628
I know well what Angelica feels
in her heart and mind...
597
01:34:57,963 --> 01:35:03,300
...and I think that Tancredi's feelings,
which honor us all...
598
01:35:03,969 --> 01:35:06,637
...are sincerely reciprocated
599
01:35:26,658 --> 01:35:29,869
We ask for God's protection
for this wedding
600
01:35:30,036 --> 01:35:32,663
Your joy is mine, Excellency
601
01:35:40,005 --> 01:35:42,006
It's turning stormy
602
01:35:44,342 --> 01:35:48,345
No need for me to tell you how
illustrious the Falconeri family is
603
01:35:49,014 --> 01:35:53,684
It came to Sicily with Charles of Anjou,
flourished under the Aragons...
604
01:35:54,019 --> 01:35:59,023
...the Spanish kings and the Bourbons,
if you'll allow me to mention them
605
01:35:59,691 --> 01:36:04,028
They were peers of the realm,
grandees of Spain, Knights of St. James
606
01:36:06,364 --> 01:36:12,369
But if there's no need to tell you of
the history of the house of Falconeri...
607
01:36:13,371 --> 01:36:17,041
...I need not tell you, alas,
because you already know...
608
01:36:17,375 --> 01:36:23,130
...that my nephew's fortune does not
match the grandeur of his name
609
01:36:24,507 --> 01:36:28,385
My brother-in-law was not what
one calls a provident father
610
01:36:28,720 --> 01:36:33,724
The sumptuousness of his life
impaired my nephew's inheritance
611
01:36:35,101 --> 01:36:39,188
But, Don Calogero,
the result of all these troubles...
612
01:36:39,564 --> 01:36:42,733
...of these heartbreaks, is Tancredi
613
01:36:43,735 --> 01:36:46,070
The two of us know these things
614
01:36:46,738 --> 01:36:51,408
Perhaps it is impossible to be
as distinguished...
615
01:36:51,743 --> 01:36:55,412
...sensitive and charming
as Tancredi...
616
01:36:55,747 --> 01:37:01,043
...unless ancestors have squandered
fortunes. That's how it is in Sicily
617
01:37:01,419 --> 01:37:04,421
I know all this, and more besides
618
01:37:04,756 --> 01:37:08,425
But love, Excellency, love is all...
619
01:37:08,760 --> 01:37:10,761
...as I know well
620
01:37:12,430 --> 01:37:13,639
Now listen
621
01:37:14,432 --> 01:37:18,435
I'm a man of the world and
I'll put my cards on the table, too
622
01:37:18,770 --> 01:37:22,106
These young people must know
what they can count on
623
01:37:24,109 --> 01:37:29,113
In the marriage contract,
I'll assign to my daughter...
624
01:37:29,781 --> 01:37:32,783
...the deeds to Settesoli
625
01:37:39,791 --> 01:37:42,751
One thousand and ten hectares
626
01:37:44,462 --> 01:37:48,549
All wheat fields, first-class land...
627
01:37:49,134 --> 01:37:50,801
...cool and airy...
628
01:37:51,136 --> 01:37:54,805
...and five hundred hectares
of vineyards and olive groves...
629
01:37:55,807 --> 01:37:57,808
...at Gibildolce
630
01:38:10,155 --> 01:38:12,823
On the wedding day
I'll give the bridegroom...
631
01:38:13,199 --> 01:38:15,451
...twenty bags,
each with 10,000 uncias
632
01:38:21,499 --> 01:38:24,168
My family means everything to me
633
01:38:24,502 --> 01:38:29,173
Nobody has seen Calogero's wife
for years
634
01:38:29,841 --> 01:38:34,219
Except myself, perhaps.
She comes out only to go to first Mass...
635
01:38:34,804 --> 01:38:36,805
...at five, when no one's about
636
01:38:37,474 --> 01:38:41,143
Once I got up early specially,
just to see her
637
01:38:41,478 --> 01:38:46,315
Word of honor,
she's as beautiful as the sun
638
01:38:58,161 --> 01:39:01,497
You can't blame him,
cockroach though he is...
639
01:39:01,831 --> 01:39:05,084
...for keeping her from other men
640
01:39:14,511 --> 01:39:20,974
Of course, it leaves me a beggar,
but a daughter is a daughter
641
01:39:21,518 --> 01:39:24,937
And after all, Prince,
I know what I'm telling you...
642
01:39:25,188 --> 01:39:30,818
...won't impress you, a descendant of
Emperor Titus and Queen Berenice...
643
01:39:31,694 --> 01:39:37,366
...but the Sedara family, by a title
granted by Ferdinand the Fourth...
644
01:39:38,034 --> 01:39:40,369
...is also nobility
645
01:39:44,374 --> 01:39:50,045
I've all the papers in order. One day
it will be known that your nephew...
646
01:39:52,048 --> 01:39:56,051
...has married a baroness,
the Baroness Sedara del Biscotto
647
01:39:58,721 --> 01:40:03,058
Don Pirrone, I've all the papers
in order; just one seal to get
648
01:40:20,743 --> 01:40:24,079
I'm sorry, Don Ciccio,
but I had no choice
649
01:40:24,414 --> 01:40:28,083
I hope at least that all went well
650
01:40:28,418 --> 01:40:32,421
Yes, perfectly.
It couldn't have gone better
651
01:40:35,758 --> 01:40:40,762
We'll meet again soon. And forgive me
652
01:40:56,946 --> 01:41:00,032
It was a cold January day
653
01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:06,288
The atmosphere seemed even heavier
when the biting north wind dropped
654
01:41:06,623 --> 01:41:09,958
For many hours it had been snowing
great white flakes
655
01:41:10,293 --> 01:41:16,298
On that deserted road, a poor old horse,
a rough blanket on its back...
656
01:41:20,970 --> 01:41:24,306
...wearily dragged a two-wheeled cart
657
01:41:24,641 --> 01:41:28,977
"Oh, you damned beast",
cried the peasant...
658
01:41:29,312 --> 01:41:31,563
...who habitually talked to his horse
659
01:41:46,621 --> 01:41:50,082
Excellency, Don Tancredi has arrived
660
01:41:50,667 --> 01:41:55,003
He is in the courtyard
having his luggage unloaded
661
01:42:09,352 --> 01:42:12,354
Not too close, uncle;
I'm as wet as a sponge
662
01:42:14,357 --> 01:42:16,692
How pleased I am to see you again
663
01:42:17,026 --> 01:42:20,362
Tancredi, think how happy
Angelica will be
664
01:42:20,697 --> 01:42:23,365
Forgive me, but my emotion
caused me to forget
665
01:42:23,700 --> 01:42:28,370
My friend, Count Cavriaghi;
he came to the villa with the General
666
01:42:29,372 --> 01:42:32,708
And there is my orderly, Lancer Moroni
667
01:42:37,005 --> 01:42:40,340
We were expecting you,
but in this weather...
668
01:42:41,634 --> 01:42:44,678
They arrived in this storm
669
01:42:48,016 --> 01:42:50,684
I'd heard it never rains here
670
01:42:51,019 --> 01:42:54,813
For two days it was like being
in the sea. Really
671
01:43:11,039 --> 01:43:16,043
Aunt, here's Count Cavriaghi from Milan.
You met him in Palermo
672
01:43:23,968 --> 01:43:28,597
You thought it never rains in Sicily.
As you've seen, it pours
673
01:43:29,724 --> 01:43:34,353
And don't think there's no pneumonia here,
or you'll end up in bed
674
01:43:36,481 --> 01:43:40,567
Light fires in Tancredi's room
and in the visitor's room
675
01:43:40,735 --> 01:43:45,072
Get the next room ready
for the soldier. Hurry!
676
01:43:57,085 --> 01:43:59,127
I don't understand, boys
677
01:43:59,587 --> 01:44:01,421
Last time you were lobster-red
678
01:44:01,756 --> 01:44:03,423
What do you mean?
679
01:44:04,258 --> 01:44:08,720
Don't you Garibaldi fellows wear
the red shirt any more?
680
01:44:09,555 --> 01:44:11,556
Garibaldi fellows be blowed!
681
01:44:12,225 --> 01:44:14,184
We were, but now that's over
682
01:44:14,394 --> 01:44:16,395
Cavriaghi and I, thank heaven...
683
01:44:16,771 --> 01:44:20,565
...are officers of the regular army
of His Majesty the King of Italy
684
01:44:21,401 --> 01:44:24,903
When Garibaldi's army was disbanded
we had the choice:
685
01:44:25,238 --> 01:44:27,906
Either return home,
or stay in the royal army
686
01:44:28,241 --> 01:44:31,910
We and many others decided
to join the proper army
687
01:44:32,245 --> 01:44:35,247
We couldn't stay with that lot,
could we, Cavriaghi?
688
01:44:35,581 --> 01:44:36,748
What rabble!
689
01:44:36,916 --> 01:44:40,252
Assault troops, good for firing guns,
that's all
690
01:44:40,586 --> 01:44:43,880
Now we're proper officers
691
01:44:44,048 --> 01:44:46,925
People no longer fear
we'll steal their chickens
692
01:44:47,260 --> 01:44:49,219
When we came here from Palermo...
693
01:44:49,929 --> 01:44:54,683
...we had only to say: "Urgent orders
for His Majesty" to get fresh horses
694
01:44:55,268 --> 01:44:59,271
Tell me everything later.
Now go and change and have a bath
695
01:45:07,613 --> 01:45:11,950
First I want to show you the ring
for Angelica
696
01:45:28,968 --> 01:45:31,970
I'm no judge, but it looks valuable
697
01:45:32,972 --> 01:45:36,308
Beautiful, isn't it? Do you like it?
698
01:45:47,320 --> 01:45:49,654
Did you pay a lot for it?
699
01:45:49,989 --> 01:45:54,993
I used your money well; I confess
I haven't used all you gave me
700
01:45:55,328 --> 01:45:58,997
- There was even enough to buy...
- Some parting gifts? I understand
701
01:46:00,666 --> 01:46:03,668
Our lieutenant is back. What is that?
702
01:46:04,003 --> 01:46:06,338
A small present for signorina Concetta
703
01:46:08,674 --> 01:46:13,345
"The Poems of Aleardi". I hope she likes it
704
01:46:25,107 --> 01:46:28,360
They are poems by Aleardi,
my favorite poet
705
01:46:28,694 --> 01:46:32,697
I brought it as a gift;
I've had your monogram inscribed here
706
01:46:36,035 --> 01:46:40,038
"Always deaf"? What does it mean?
I hear perfectly
707
01:46:40,665 --> 01:46:42,123
Deaf to my sighs
708
01:46:48,339 --> 01:46:52,008
Excuse me, but I was told...
709
01:47:09,694 --> 01:47:12,696
A gift for you from your Tancredi
710
01:47:13,698 --> 01:47:16,032
You can thank my uncle, too
711
01:47:58,492 --> 01:48:03,538
Angelica! Tancredi! Where are you?
712
01:48:32,777 --> 01:48:34,778
It's mouse-ridden
713
01:49:05,810 --> 01:49:07,143
Come along
714
01:49:38,175 --> 01:49:40,510
Angelica, where are you?
715
01:50:16,547 --> 01:50:18,214
Tancredi, where are you?
716
01:50:35,566 --> 01:50:38,902
How frightening.
Do you know there are mice here?
717
01:50:39,236 --> 01:50:41,905
I'm sure, in this house.
But where is Tancredi?
718
01:50:42,239 --> 01:50:44,240
I can't find him
719
01:50:44,867 --> 01:50:48,203
Tancredi! Angelica! Where are you?
720
01:50:52,875 --> 01:50:54,876
I frightened you, didn't I?
721
01:50:58,506 --> 01:51:01,090
There she is again. Let's run away
722
01:51:01,550 --> 01:51:06,095
No. Where are we going?
I'm dead tired
723
01:51:06,430 --> 01:51:10,016
How big the place is;
how many rooms are there?
724
01:51:10,226 --> 01:51:13,228
No one knows, not even my uncle
725
01:51:13,562 --> 01:51:17,565
He says a palace where you know
all the rooms isn't worth living in
726
01:51:21,904 --> 01:51:25,156
- Come on, the poor thing is alone
- What about the others?
727
01:51:25,574 --> 01:51:27,325
Concetta has gone back to the garden
728
01:51:28,911 --> 01:51:31,120
Francesco Paolo was sent
by your uncle...
729
01:51:31,580 --> 01:51:33,331
...to welcome a guest
730
01:51:33,582 --> 01:51:36,251
- Who is he?
- I don't know; he's from Turin
731
01:51:37,586 --> 01:51:39,796
Then let's go
732
01:51:40,256 --> 01:51:43,007
No, I don't want to see anything else
733
01:51:43,592 --> 01:51:49,430
I'm leaving. What am I doing here?
Concetta doesn't love me
734
01:51:49,598 --> 01:51:51,599
Have you spoken to her?
735
01:51:51,934 --> 01:51:54,394
It's useless. I feel that for her...
736
01:51:54,603 --> 01:52:01,192
...I'm just a worm; so I must find
a lady worm who'll be happy with me
737
01:52:02,945 --> 01:52:07,615
Talk to her; there'll be time later
to decide. Maybe it's all for the best
738
01:52:08,784 --> 01:52:13,955
I'll explain: Concetta's a pure Sicilian,
she's never left the island
739
01:52:14,290 --> 01:52:19,294
How would she cope in Milan, where
it takes a month to find real macaroni?
740
01:52:19,628 --> 01:52:24,632
I'd have got her crates of your macaroni,
bigger than this
741
01:52:25,968 --> 01:52:28,386
We'll make our way separately, then?
742
01:52:54,663 --> 01:52:58,499
Poor Count, it's useless;
Concetta does not want to know him
743
01:52:58,667 --> 01:53:02,337
She's foolish.
After all, what does she want?
744
01:53:03,005 --> 01:53:06,674
Cavriaghi is handsome,
has a good name, owns land in Brianza
745
01:53:07,009 --> 01:53:10,011
He's what's known as a good catch
746
01:53:18,395 --> 01:53:21,397
Concetta is still in love with you
747
01:53:25,402 --> 01:53:27,737
That's why you brought him here
748
01:53:31,742 --> 01:53:34,410
Yes, that's what I think
749
01:53:36,413 --> 01:53:38,081
No, I'll tell you
750
01:53:43,087 --> 01:53:46,756
Then listen carefully. Concetta's right
751
01:53:47,091 --> 01:53:52,303
Marrying someone like him after loving
you would be like water after...
752
01:53:56,433 --> 01:54:01,896
- After what?
- Let's say Marsala wine
753
01:54:21,458 --> 01:54:25,795
Strange rooms. How could anyone
have lived in such apartments?
754
01:54:26,130 --> 01:54:28,464
No one has ever lived here, my love
755
01:54:29,133 --> 01:54:33,469
My ancestors came here to commit
their little breaches of the rules...
756
01:54:33,804 --> 01:54:37,807
...and obtain special memories
so different from ordinary mortals
757
01:54:40,811 --> 01:54:42,812
Breaches of the rules?
758
01:54:47,026 --> 01:54:48,818
They were bored, my love
759
01:55:14,595 --> 01:55:17,930
Are you the Chevalier Aymone
Chevalley de Monterzuolo?
760
01:55:18,599 --> 01:55:19,932
I am
761
01:55:20,100 --> 01:55:22,602
I am the Prince of Salina's son
762
01:55:25,272 --> 01:55:29,609
My father sent me to invite you
to stay with us at the palace
763
01:55:30,027 --> 01:55:31,944
That's very kind of you
764
01:55:32,112 --> 01:55:34,447
Do replace your hat; our sun is strong
765
01:55:34,782 --> 01:55:36,449
Thank you. You, too
766
01:55:37,117 --> 01:55:42,455
I did intend to leave as soon as
I had talked with the Prince
767
01:55:42,790 --> 01:55:46,125
In any case, to talk to my father
you'll have to come home
768
01:55:59,139 --> 01:56:01,599
Is that the palace up there?
769
01:56:02,017 --> 01:56:03,684
Where are Tancredi and Angelica?
770
01:56:04,019 --> 01:56:07,355
Not upstairs;
they must have returned to the garden
771
01:56:09,233 --> 01:56:13,569
It's terrible. You know I must
chaperone Angelica
772
01:56:49,690 --> 01:56:51,607
Do you think I won't love you any more?
773
01:57:07,374 --> 01:57:09,041
You're afraid
774
01:57:10,669 --> 01:57:15,673
I desire you, but I won't possess you
until you are my wife
775
01:57:29,354 --> 01:57:32,023
My poor leg, I'm afraid
776
01:57:50,042 --> 01:57:52,043
Here's the guest
777
01:58:47,432 --> 01:58:49,433
What does he want from you?
778
01:58:51,436 --> 01:58:56,774
I don't know. He's traveled round
Sicily for a month; he must be forlorn
779
01:58:57,109 --> 01:59:00,778
The oil in our cooking must have
sorely tried his insides
780
01:59:01,113 --> 01:59:04,782
He fears a brigand's knife in the stomach,
which he still cherishes
781
01:59:06,118 --> 01:59:08,786
I'd like to suggest we play whist
782
01:59:20,799 --> 01:59:25,720
What do you say to a game of cards?
783
01:59:25,929 --> 01:59:30,474
Excellency, if I could have the honor
of a talk. I must leave tomorrow
784
01:59:30,809 --> 01:59:33,811
Leave tomorrow?
Are you not comfortable here?
785
01:59:36,148 --> 01:59:37,815
Yes, certainly
786
01:59:38,150 --> 01:59:40,818
My dear Chevalley, you are in my house...
787
01:59:41,069 --> 01:59:43,821
...and I'll hold you hostage
as long as I please
788
01:59:47,701 --> 01:59:50,828
Beware of Father Pirrone,
he's a terror. He always wins
789
01:59:51,496 --> 01:59:54,832
Please be seated. I'll be your partner
790
02:00:00,172 --> 02:00:02,173
I'll keep the score
791
02:00:24,196 --> 02:00:28,866
Excuse me, are you really from Milan?
However did you end up down here?
792
02:00:30,202 --> 02:00:34,538
Although I abuse the Prince's hospitality,
I feel much at home here
793
02:01:11,451 --> 02:01:16,956
Let me be your guide in Donnafugata;
I'll show you Baron Mutolo's house
794
02:01:17,582 --> 02:01:19,917
Francesco Paulo, don't start that
795
02:01:20,252 --> 02:01:22,503
It's empty; the family lives at Girgenti...
796
02:01:22,921 --> 02:01:27,591
...since brigands held the Baron's
son for ransom ten years ago
797
02:01:28,260 --> 02:01:32,263
When I think what they must have
paid to free him
798
02:01:32,597 --> 02:01:37,935
They paid nothing. They had
no ready cash, like everybody here
799
02:01:38,270 --> 02:01:42,940
The son was returned, anyway,
but in installments
800
02:01:43,942 --> 02:01:47,278
In installments? What are you saying?
801
02:01:47,612 --> 02:01:50,281
Yes, installments: Piece by piece
802
02:01:50,949 --> 02:01:53,742
First came the index finger
of his right hand
803
02:01:53,910 --> 02:01:57,121
Then, a week later, his left foot
804
02:01:57,289 --> 02:02:00,291
Finally, in a basket under a layer of figs...
805
02:02:00,959 --> 02:02:03,627
...they sent his head
806
02:02:04,629 --> 02:02:07,631
That's enough of those stories
807
02:02:08,300 --> 02:02:12,219
I never saw it because I was a child,
but my father told me
808
02:02:13,638 --> 02:02:15,931
I'd say the Bourbon police
were incompetent
809
02:02:16,099 --> 02:02:18,309
Without doubt, Chevalley
810
02:02:18,852 --> 02:02:23,981
We had incidents in our region.
My father was an overseer...
811
02:02:25,442 --> 02:02:28,986
...a risky job,
at least until a while ago...
812
02:02:29,321 --> 02:02:31,989
...for him and for his family
813
02:02:32,657 --> 02:02:36,327
When our carabinieri come here,
all this will end
814
02:02:36,495 --> 02:02:39,121
So, contrary to certain propaganda...
815
02:02:39,289 --> 02:02:43,667
...respect for the church will be
restored and defended as it once was
816
02:02:44,002 --> 02:02:46,003
Let us hope a little better...
817
02:02:46,338 --> 02:02:51,342
...because five years ago a curate
was murdered while he conducted Mass
818
02:02:52,010 --> 02:02:55,012
How horrible. A shooting in the church?
819
02:02:55,347 --> 02:02:57,348
Shooting, my dear Chevalley?
820
02:02:57,682 --> 02:03:00,684
We're too good Catholics
to do anything so sacrilegious
821
02:03:01,019 --> 02:03:04,355
No, they simply put poison in
the communion wine
822
02:03:04,689 --> 02:03:08,025
More discreet, almost liturgical,
I'd say
823
02:03:08,360 --> 02:03:13,697
But who did it? The curate was an
excellent person who had no enemies
824
02:03:15,033 --> 02:03:18,369
Very interesting, Prince, really amusing
825
02:03:18,703 --> 02:03:21,747
You should write novels;
you tell these stories so well
826
02:03:22,707 --> 02:03:27,044
Yes, they're all stories.
Believe me, I'm from Milan
827
02:03:27,379 --> 02:03:29,713
Sicily is a great country
828
02:03:30,715 --> 02:03:33,384
After the happy annexation...
829
02:03:34,052 --> 02:03:39,723
...that is, after the happy union of
Sicily and the Kingdom of Sardinia...
830
02:03:40,392 --> 02:03:43,060
...it's the intention of the
Turin government...
831
02:03:43,395 --> 02:03:48,065
...to nominate certain illustrious
Sicilians as Senators of the Kingdom
832
02:03:48,733 --> 02:03:52,069
Of course, your name was among the first
833
02:03:52,404 --> 02:03:55,072
A name made illustrious
by its long history...
834
02:03:55,407 --> 02:03:58,617
...by the prestige of its bearer...
835
02:03:59,744 --> 02:04:06,750
...his erudition and the dignified and
liberal action taken in recent events
836
02:04:08,086 --> 02:04:10,421
Before I send the list to Turin...
837
02:04:10,755 --> 02:04:13,882
...my superiors thought it proper
to inform you yourself...
838
02:04:14,426 --> 02:04:17,428
...and ask if you find the proposal
acceptable
839
02:04:18,096 --> 02:04:21,098
The government hopes very much
that you will agree
840
02:04:22,434 --> 02:04:24,560
This is the object of my mission...
841
02:04:25,228 --> 02:04:32,109
...which has given me the honor of
knowing you and this fine palace
842
02:04:38,450 --> 02:04:40,451
Explain to me, Chevalley...
843
02:04:41,119 --> 02:04:45,122
...what does it mean to be a Senator?
844
02:04:45,790 --> 02:04:50,794
What is it? An honorary title,
like a decoration?
845
02:04:51,212 --> 02:04:55,466
The Senate is the Upper House
of our kingdom
846
02:04:55,800 --> 02:04:59,470
In it they examine and debate...
847
02:04:59,804 --> 02:05:05,476
...approve or reject laws proposed by
government for the country's progress
848
02:05:06,144 --> 02:05:09,021
When you are a Senator...
849
02:05:09,481 --> 02:05:12,483
...you'll make heard the voice
of your beautiful land...
850
02:05:12,817 --> 02:05:16,153
...which now faces the panorama
of the modern world...
851
02:05:16,488 --> 02:05:21,825
...with so many wounds to heal,
so many just desires to satisfy
852
02:05:23,828 --> 02:05:25,829
Listen, Chevalley
853
02:05:27,165 --> 02:05:30,501
I'm grateful to the government
for thinking of me for the Senate
854
02:05:31,169 --> 02:05:36,173
If it were a simple honorary title
to put on my visiting card...
855
02:05:36,841 --> 02:05:38,509
...I'd accept with pleasure
856
02:05:39,844 --> 02:05:42,846
But as it is... no, I cannot accept
857
02:05:46,851 --> 02:05:49,645
I am a spokesman of the old class...
858
02:05:50,188 --> 02:05:53,190
...fatally compromised
with the past r�gime...
859
02:05:53,525 --> 02:05:56,860
...bound to it by bonds of decency,
if not affection
860
02:05:57,529 --> 02:06:03,867
My unhappy generation straddles
two worlds and is uneasy in either
861
02:06:04,869 --> 02:06:07,871
Moreover, I am completely without illusions
862
02:06:08,540 --> 02:06:12,292
What would the Senate do with me,
an inexperienced legislator...
863
02:06:12,460 --> 02:06:17,214
...who lacks self-deception, which is
essential when seeking to guide others?
864
02:06:17,882 --> 02:06:22,219
No, I wouldn't put one finger
into politics; they'd bite it off
865
02:06:23,555 --> 02:06:26,223
Prince, I can't believe it
866
02:06:27,892 --> 02:06:32,229
Are you seriously refusing to do
whatever possible to alleviate...
867
02:06:32,564 --> 02:06:39,236
...the material poverty and blind
moral misery in which Sicilians lie?
868
02:06:39,904 --> 02:06:43,240
We are old, Chevalley, very old
869
02:06:43,908 --> 02:06:48,579
For twenty-five centuries we have
borne magnificent civilizations...
870
02:06:48,913 --> 02:06:53,250
...all from abroad, none made by us,
none which started here
871
02:06:53,585 --> 02:06:56,920
For 2,500 years we've been
nothing but a colony
872
02:06:57,255 --> 02:06:59,923
I don't say that to scourge myself.
It's our fault
873
02:07:00,258 --> 02:07:03,260
But we are very tired, empty,
burnt-out
874
02:07:03,595 --> 02:07:05,304
But all that is finished now
875
02:07:05,930 --> 02:07:11,310
Sicily is no longer a land of conquest,
but a free part of a free state
876
02:07:13,938 --> 02:07:17,608
The intention is good,
but it arrives late
877
02:07:43,968 --> 02:07:49,306
A sleep, my dear Chevalley.
A long sleep is what the Sicilians want...
878
02:07:49,974 --> 02:07:53,644
...and they'll always hate those
who want to wake them...
879
02:07:54,312 --> 02:07:57,314
...even if it is to bring them
marvelous gifts
880
02:07:58,650 --> 02:08:04,321
Between ourselves, I doubt if the new
kingdom will have many gifts for us
881
02:08:07,992 --> 02:08:12,663
With us, every demonstration,
even violent, is a longing for oblivion
882
02:08:19,337 --> 02:08:24,007
Our sensuality is a desire for oblivion
883
02:08:24,676 --> 02:08:28,345
Our shootings and our stabbings
are the desire for death
884
02:08:29,013 --> 02:08:33,684
Our laziness, the penetrating
sweetness of our sorbets...
885
02:08:34,352 --> 02:08:40,357
...are a desire for voluptuous
immobility, which again is death
886
02:08:54,038 --> 02:08:56,707
Prince, aren't you exaggerating?
887
02:08:57,375 --> 02:09:02,838
I've met Sicilians in Turin;
they seemed anything but sluggards
888
02:09:03,715 --> 02:09:07,050
I haven't explained very well.
I'm sorry
889
02:09:07,385 --> 02:09:10,387
I said Sicilians, I meant Sicily
890
02:09:11,389 --> 02:09:15,392
This environment,
the violence of the landscape...
891
02:09:15,727 --> 02:09:18,729
...the cruelty of the climate,
the continuous tension in everything
892
02:09:19,063 --> 02:09:23,734
But the climate can be mastered,
the landscape can be modified...
893
02:09:24,402 --> 02:09:27,779
...the record of bad governments erased
894
02:09:28,406 --> 02:09:30,532
Of course, the Sicilians will want to improve
895
02:09:31,075 --> 02:09:35,412
I don't deny that some, away from
the island, can succeed in awakening
896
02:09:36,080 --> 02:09:41,084
But they must leave very young.
Even at twenty the shell has been formed
897
02:09:42,086 --> 02:09:43,754
The man you need...
898
02:09:44,088 --> 02:09:49,426
...must know how to temper his private
interests with vague public idealism
899
02:09:52,764 --> 02:09:56,099
Might I give you some advice
to pass on to your superiors?
900
02:09:56,768 --> 02:10:00,437
There's a name I'd like to suggest
for the Senate
901
02:10:06,110 --> 02:10:10,447
The name of Calogero Sedara
902
02:10:11,449 --> 02:10:14,451
He deserves much more than I
to be elected
903
02:10:14,786 --> 02:10:19,122
The family name, I'm told,
is very ancient - or will be soon
904
02:10:20,124 --> 02:10:24,127
He has more than what you call
prestige; he has power
905
02:10:25,129 --> 02:10:29,800
He may not be learned, but he has
almost exceptional practical merits
906
02:10:30,468 --> 02:10:34,471
His activity was most useful
during the May crisis...
907
02:10:34,806 --> 02:10:36,807
...as far as illusions go
908
02:10:41,813 --> 02:10:44,147
I don't think he has more than I have...
909
02:10:44,482 --> 02:10:49,027
...but he's clever enough to create
some himself; he's the man for you
910
02:10:51,823 --> 02:10:55,492
I've heard tell about Sedara
911
02:10:57,161 --> 02:11:00,497
But if honest men like you withdraw...
912
02:11:00,832 --> 02:11:04,835
...the road will be open to people
without scruples or perspective...
913
02:11:05,169 --> 02:11:10,507
...like Sedara, and for centuries
to come all will be as it was
914
02:11:11,509 --> 02:11:16,179
Listen to your conscience, Prince,
not to the proud truths you spoke
915
02:11:21,519 --> 02:11:25,439
I beg you to collaborate
916
02:11:29,193 --> 02:11:34,865
You're a gentleman and I consider it
a privilege to have known you
917
02:11:35,533 --> 02:11:37,868
You are right in everything
918
02:11:39,871 --> 02:11:44,541
Except when you say the Sicilians
will want to improve
919
02:11:45,209 --> 02:11:48,879
They'll never want to improve
because they think themselves perfect
920
02:11:49,213 --> 02:11:51,882
Their vanity is stronger
than their wretchedness
921
02:11:55,553 --> 02:11:57,262
Sit down for a moment
922
02:11:57,430 --> 02:11:59,556
I want to tell you something
923
02:12:02,560 --> 02:12:05,145
A few days before Garibaldi
entered Palermo...
924
02:12:05,480 --> 02:12:08,899
...some English naval officers...
925
02:12:09,233 --> 02:12:13,236
...asked me if they could go on
the terrace of my house...
926
02:12:13,571 --> 02:12:16,198
...where they could see the ring
of mountains around the city
927
02:12:17,909 --> 02:12:20,911
They were enthusiastic
about the view...
928
02:12:21,245 --> 02:12:27,459
...but confessed their amazement at
the squalor and filth in the streets
929
02:12:28,586 --> 02:12:33,590
I didn't explain, as I did with you,
that the one derived from the other
930
02:12:38,262 --> 02:12:40,597
One of the officers asked:
931
02:12:40,932 --> 02:12:43,683
"What are Garibaldi's men
coming to do here?"
932
02:12:44,268 --> 02:12:46,812
I replied: "They're coming
to teach us manners
933
02:12:46,979 --> 02:12:50,273
"But they won't succeed,
because we're gods"
934
02:12:51,609 --> 02:12:54,611
They laughed,
but I don't think they understood
935
02:13:01,953 --> 02:13:04,871
It's late, almost time for dinner
936
02:13:05,289 --> 02:13:07,290
We must go and change
937
02:13:07,625 --> 02:13:10,627
If you wish,
you can leave tomorrow at dawn
938
02:14:50,686 --> 02:14:55,023
Even if you don't believe me,
this state of affairs won't last
939
02:14:55,358 --> 02:15:00,028
Our efficient, modern administration
will change everything
940
02:15:00,363 --> 02:15:03,823
This state of affairs ought not to last,
but it always will
941
02:15:04,075 --> 02:15:06,701
The human element, certainly;
a century or two
942
02:15:07,036 --> 02:15:11,039
Later, perhaps everything will be
different, but it will be worse
943
02:15:21,884 --> 02:15:25,011
We were the leopards, the lions
944
02:15:26,389 --> 02:15:30,058
Those who replace us will be
the jackals, the hyenas
945
02:15:30,393 --> 02:15:35,063
And all of us, leopards, lions,
jackals and sheep...
946
02:15:35,398 --> 02:15:38,400
...will continue to think
we're the salt of the earth
947
02:15:38,734 --> 02:15:41,736
I don't quite understand.
What did you say?
948
02:15:42,738 --> 02:15:44,155
Nothing
949
02:15:44,740 --> 02:15:47,409
What did you say? I didn't hear
950
02:17:19,877 --> 02:17:25,173
You've arrived early. Don't worry,
there's no sign of your guests yet
951
02:17:31,847 --> 02:17:37,519
Tancredi's here. We're expecting
Pallavicino, the hero of Aspromonte
952
02:17:47,196 --> 02:17:52,158
Thank you again, aunt.
It was essential to invite them
953
02:17:52,743 --> 02:17:56,204
You understand. This will be
Angelica's real d�but in society
954
02:17:56,539 --> 02:17:58,206
What about Calogero's tail-suit?
955
02:17:58,541 --> 02:18:00,875
It's not the one he wore at Donnafugata
956
02:18:01,085 --> 02:18:04,879
I took him to the best tailor;
it's Don Calogero who lacks style
957
02:18:49,592 --> 02:18:53,553
- Mamma, may I go and dance?
- Of course. Tidy yourself a little
958
02:18:53,721 --> 02:18:56,264
You are very beautiful, like a flower
959
02:19:01,937 --> 02:19:06,316
I don't care for these balls,
but one had to come for the girls
960
02:19:43,979 --> 02:19:46,981
Colonel, I am most honored to see you
961
02:19:48,817 --> 02:19:52,320
I have the honor to present you
to Colonel Pallavicino
962
02:19:54,490 --> 02:20:00,495
I am proud and happy to receive
the victor of Aspromonte in my house
963
02:20:00,663 --> 02:20:04,666
How kind, Princess.
It is I who am happy on this occasion
964
02:20:05,000 --> 02:20:09,337
I hope you and your officers will
spend a pleasant evening in our home
965
02:20:20,015 --> 02:20:25,353
It really is an honor for us.
All Palermo is at your feet, Colonel
966
02:20:32,695 --> 02:20:35,363
The Princess of Lampedusa
967
02:20:37,700 --> 02:20:39,701
Countess Sutera
968
02:20:48,711 --> 02:20:51,713
The Princess of Salina
969
02:21:29,084 --> 02:21:32,086
I'm going to see if Angelica has arrived
970
02:21:59,657 --> 02:22:03,117
Colonel, but tell us, is it really true?
971
02:22:05,204 --> 02:22:08,289
I was crying, Countess, like a child
972
02:22:08,457 --> 02:22:09,791
How moving
973
02:22:10,125 --> 02:22:12,001
But what was Garibaldi like?
974
02:22:12,461 --> 02:22:16,130
He was handsome and serene
as an archangel
975
02:22:16,465 --> 02:22:21,427
Magnificent, a hero. A real hero.
Isn't he extraordinary, my dear?
976
02:22:28,811 --> 02:22:33,481
The Colonel is trying to reassure them
after his men fired on Garibaldi's men
977
02:22:34,817 --> 02:22:37,485
Those shots were really most opportune
978
02:22:46,829 --> 02:22:49,163
You're late; I was waiting for you
979
02:22:51,166 --> 02:22:54,836
You are very beautiful.
Come and greet the Princess
980
02:23:10,519 --> 02:23:14,188
Permit me to present my fianc�e,
Angelica Sedara
981
02:23:14,523 --> 02:23:17,525
My dear, let me look at you
982
02:23:17,860 --> 02:23:22,196
Yes, it's true.
You are more beautiful than they say
983
02:23:24,825 --> 02:23:28,202
- What's this?
- Knight's Cross of the Italian Crown
984
02:23:28,871 --> 02:23:31,539
It's out of place here
985
02:23:32,750 --> 02:23:35,877
I've never doubted your good taste
986
02:23:36,545 --> 02:23:40,548
My father-in-law,
the Chevalier Don Calogero Sedara
987
02:23:46,221 --> 02:23:49,515
- Nice here, isn't it, Princess?
- You like it?
988
02:24:21,590 --> 02:24:24,926
Tancredi, don't you want to present me
to your fianc�e?
989
02:24:26,303 --> 02:24:29,597
Allow me to present a friend,
Gioacchino Lanza
990
02:24:30,265 --> 02:24:31,599
And this is Fulco...
991
02:24:31,934 --> 02:24:37,104
Tancredi may protest, but may I have
the honor of the next waltz?
992
02:24:37,272 --> 02:24:41,275
All right, boys.
Don't hurry, there'll be time later
993
02:24:44,947 --> 02:24:49,826
I'm sorry, I'm not to blame.
The lady has to choose her partners
994
02:24:50,953 --> 02:24:53,287
It's a waltz. Shall we dance?
995
02:24:53,622 --> 02:24:56,833
- I haven't greeted your uncle yet
- Do it later. Come and dance
996
02:25:58,687 --> 02:26:02,356
You are very beautiful, as always;
it's the truth
997
02:26:47,402 --> 02:26:49,070
Bored, Fabrizio?
998
02:26:49,738 --> 02:26:55,910
All these marriages between cousins
do not improve the beauty of the race
999
02:26:56,078 --> 02:27:01,415
They look like monkeys,
ready to climb up the chandeliers...
1000
02:27:02,417 --> 02:27:07,046
...where they'll swing by their tails,
exhibiting their behinds
1001
02:28:13,196 --> 02:28:15,489
Eleonora Giardinelli...
1002
02:28:16,491 --> 02:28:19,493
...a white swan in a pond full of frogs
1003
02:28:19,828 --> 02:28:22,830
My compliments on
your nephew's engagement
1004
02:28:23,040 --> 02:28:26,500
The girl's a beauty.
Many will soon follow his example
1005
02:28:26,835 --> 02:28:28,627
What did you say?
1006
02:28:28,837 --> 02:28:31,839
I said it's hot, too hot here
1007
02:28:32,841 --> 02:28:36,844
Yes, it is hot. I should not have come
1008
02:28:39,514 --> 02:28:44,852
I'm somewhat tired,
but now I'm here and I must stay
1009
02:28:45,854 --> 02:28:48,856
It would be discourteous to leave now
1010
02:30:22,200 --> 02:30:26,912
Good evening. Tina, I have
four dances booked with Giovanni
1011
02:30:35,297 --> 02:30:39,300
Princess, I'd be most happy
if you would do me the honor...
1012
02:30:40,886 --> 02:30:47,433
Colonel, it's years since I danced...
so many lovely ladies are here...
1013
02:31:21,676 --> 02:31:24,678
Nice, Prince, really beautiful
1014
02:31:25,138 --> 02:31:29,350
Places like this aren't made nowadays,
with the current price of gold
1015
02:31:31,353 --> 02:31:35,231
Yes, very nice, truly beautiful
1016
02:31:37,025 --> 02:31:40,027
But nothing equals our two young people
1017
02:35:15,910 --> 02:35:19,913
Angelica wanted to greet you.
But why are you here alone?
1018
02:35:21,249 --> 02:35:23,917
Are you flirting with death?
1019
02:35:29,591 --> 02:35:31,592
You're really magnificent
1020
02:35:38,266 --> 02:35:42,686
Isn't it odd that Don Diego
keeps this morbid picture?
1021
02:35:44,272 --> 02:35:48,275
If Don Diego enters this library
once a year, it's a miracle
1022
02:35:48,443 --> 02:35:50,611
Yes, you're right
1023
02:35:52,947 --> 02:35:55,616
I wonder if my death will resemble this
1024
02:35:56,951 --> 02:35:59,286
The linen will not be so spotless
1025
02:35:59,621 --> 02:36:03,373
The sheets of the dying are
always so soiled...
1026
02:36:04,209 --> 02:36:09,213
...and I hope that Concetta and
the others will be more decently dressed
1027
02:36:09,964 --> 02:36:14,760
But I think all in all it will be the same
1028
02:36:18,973 --> 02:36:22,643
What are you saying, uncle?
What are you thinking of?
1029
02:36:24,979 --> 02:36:29,191
I often think of death.
The idea doesn't frighten me
1030
02:36:30,652 --> 02:36:33,445
You young people cannot understand
such things
1031
02:36:33,696 --> 02:36:38,992
For you, death does not exist,
it's something for other people
1032
02:36:54,676 --> 02:36:57,261
We must have repairs done
to our family vault
1033
02:37:10,024 --> 02:37:12,025
Give me your handkerchief, please
1034
02:37:27,166 --> 02:37:30,377
We knew you were here
and we came for a rest...
1035
02:37:31,296 --> 02:37:33,714
...but also to ask you something
1036
02:37:36,050 --> 02:37:38,468
I hope you won't refuse me
1037
02:37:45,727 --> 02:37:49,730
I wanted to ask you to dance
the next mazurka with me
1038
02:37:50,064 --> 02:37:53,734
Don't be lazy; everyone knows
you're a good dancer
1039
02:37:55,403 --> 02:38:00,073
I've never had such an attractive
proposal, but I must refuse
1040
02:38:00,742 --> 02:38:03,201
Please, Prince
1041
02:38:33,107 --> 02:38:37,778
You make me feel young again.
I accept, but not the mazurka
1042
02:38:38,780 --> 02:38:42,449
That would make me feel too young.
Grant me the next waltz
1043
02:38:50,792 --> 02:38:55,462
See how good your uncle is.
He doesn't have tantrums like you
1044
02:38:58,466 --> 02:39:03,011
He didn't want me to ask you.
He's jealous
1045
02:39:08,810 --> 02:39:13,146
When one has a handsome uncle
like him, it's natural to be jealous
1046
02:39:14,482 --> 02:39:17,484
But this time I'll make an exception
1047
02:39:56,065 --> 02:40:01,820
A waltz, without even having to ask
the orchestra. Do you like it?
1048
02:40:03,197 --> 02:40:07,033
It's a waltz. Or perhaps you have
already changed your mind
1049
02:40:07,201 --> 02:40:09,870
No, of course not
1050
02:40:42,570 --> 02:40:47,324
They're all so kind
and I'm so happy, uncle
1051
02:40:47,575 --> 02:40:50,160
Tancredi is a darling, and so are you
1052
02:40:50,578 --> 02:40:52,579
It's as well Tancredi can't hear you
1053
02:40:52,997 --> 02:40:55,373
I know I owe everything to you
1054
02:40:55,583 --> 02:40:59,544
So does Tancredi.
Because if you had not wanted...
1055
02:40:59,712 --> 02:41:02,172
He'd have married you, anyway
1056
02:41:03,257 --> 02:41:05,592
You owe everything to yourself
1057
02:41:05,927 --> 02:41:07,594
No, it's not true
1058
02:41:07,929 --> 02:41:09,596
It is true, Angelica
1059
02:41:13,267 --> 02:41:16,603
No man like Tancredi would
ever have resisted your beauty
1060
02:41:43,297 --> 02:41:46,132
I'd heard that you were
a good dancer, Prince
1061
02:41:46,300 --> 02:41:48,635
I'm sorry to have disappointed
you again
1062
02:41:48,803 --> 02:41:54,391
You're much more than a good dancer,
you're a really delightful dancer
1063
02:41:58,771 --> 02:41:59,980
Yes, it's my father
1064
02:42:00,314 --> 02:42:02,732
- The next dance
- A mazurka, then
1065
02:42:03,317 --> 02:42:05,986
They're all looking at us, Prince
1066
02:42:10,575 --> 02:42:13,326
What a beautiful girl that is,
dancing with your father
1067
02:42:47,153 --> 02:42:51,948
The applause was muted,
because a lion commands respect...
1068
02:42:52,116 --> 02:42:54,367
...but you deserved an ovation
1069
02:42:54,702 --> 02:42:57,454
And now come to our table
1070
02:42:57,830 --> 02:43:02,250
No, my memories of my youth are
still vivid and I know very well...
1071
02:43:02,460 --> 02:43:05,378
...how boring it would be for you
to dine with an old uncle
1072
02:43:05,713 --> 02:43:07,005
That's not true
1073
02:43:07,173 --> 02:43:10,717
It is. Lovers wish to be alone.
Anyway, I am not very hungry
1074
02:43:11,719 --> 02:43:14,721
Go with Tancredi and don't think of me
1075
02:43:28,402 --> 02:43:31,446
Fabrizio, you're still a good dancer
1076
02:44:16,450 --> 02:44:18,827
Fabrizio, how are you?
1077
02:44:22,790 --> 02:44:27,127
Fabrizio, aren't you eating?
You seem a little uncertain
1078
02:44:27,461 --> 02:44:31,381
The choice is too great.
Donna Margherita knows how to do things
1079
02:44:32,800 --> 02:44:36,136
All this calls for stomachs
other than mine
1080
02:44:39,348 --> 02:44:41,307
How marvelous these candelabra are
1081
02:44:41,475 --> 02:44:47,272
From Madrid. A gift to Don Diego's
grandfather when he was ambassador
1082
02:44:48,774 --> 02:44:51,818
How much land would they be worth, eh?
1083
02:45:59,220 --> 02:46:02,222
The utmost emotion of my life
1084
02:46:02,890 --> 02:46:04,891
What a great bore
1085
02:46:08,270 --> 02:46:11,898
Prince Salina. Will you do us
the honor of sitting at our table?
1086
02:46:24,245 --> 02:46:27,747
Now the left wants to crucify me,
because...
1087
02:46:27,915 --> 02:46:31,584
...in August I ordered my lads
to open fire on Garibaldi
1088
02:46:32,586 --> 02:46:37,966
But, Prince, what else could I do,
with the written orders I had?
1089
02:46:38,926 --> 02:46:40,677
I must confess, though...
1090
02:46:40,886 --> 02:46:45,598
...when at Aspromonte I faced those
hundreds of Garibaldi's men...
1091
02:46:46,267 --> 02:46:48,935
...some hardened veterans...
1092
02:46:49,103 --> 02:46:53,022
...others who looked like
professional rebels...
1093
02:46:56,193 --> 02:47:01,364
I was happy those orders were
so close to my own sentiments
1094
02:47:07,746 --> 02:47:09,956
Then, I'll tell you in confidence...
1095
02:47:10,291 --> 02:47:14,711
...my short burst of shooting
helped Garibaldi above all
1096
02:47:15,546 --> 02:47:19,632
I liberated him from the gang
that had attached itself to him...
1097
02:47:19,967 --> 02:47:25,346
...who were using him for ends
desired perhaps by Paris or Rome
1098
02:47:26,640 --> 02:47:28,057
Yes, it's true
1099
02:47:28,642 --> 02:47:32,979
Individuals very different from those
who landed at Marsala two years ago
1100
02:47:33,314 --> 02:47:38,401
People who thought Italy could be
created with revolutions like in 1848
1101
02:47:39,320 --> 02:47:43,406
He... I mean General Garibaldi,
as you know...
1102
02:47:43,991 --> 02:47:50,371
...at the moment of my now famous
genuflection, he shook my hand
1103
02:47:51,207 --> 02:47:53,333
Do you know what he said to me
quietly?
1104
02:47:54,001 --> 02:47:56,002
"Thank you, Colonel"
1105
02:47:57,671 --> 02:48:01,341
"For what?" I asked. "For laming you
for the rest of your life?"
1106
02:48:02,593 --> 02:48:07,597
No, but for making him understand,
to see with his own eyes the swaggering...
1107
02:48:07,932 --> 02:48:11,601
...the vile behavior and perhaps
worse of his dubious adherents
1108
02:48:11,769 --> 02:48:13,645
Please excuse me, dear Colonel
1109
02:48:14,104 --> 02:48:19,943
Don't you think your bows and
compliments overdid things a bit?
1110
02:48:23,781 --> 02:48:27,116
No. Certainly no
1111
02:48:28,118 --> 02:48:31,788
You should have seen him,
that poor, great man...
1112
02:48:32,456 --> 02:48:37,168
...lying under a chestnut tree,
suffering in his body...
1113
02:48:37,795 --> 02:48:42,465
...but even more in his spirit.
Pitiful
1114
02:48:44,176 --> 02:48:47,553
Didn't he say himself,
when landing again in Sicily:
1115
02:48:47,846 --> 02:48:50,473
"We are going towards the unknown"
1116
02:48:51,809 --> 02:48:54,143
It was difficult to resist emotion
1117
02:48:55,813 --> 02:48:58,481
Besides, why should I have resisted?
1118
02:48:59,149 --> 02:49:01,818
I kiss the hand of ladies only
1119
02:49:04,488 --> 02:49:08,783
But then, Prince, I also kissed
the hand of the salvation of the kingdom...
1120
02:49:09,159 --> 02:49:14,831
...which is also a lady to whom
we military men must pay homage
1121
02:49:19,920 --> 02:49:22,046
I ask your pardon. Diego, excuse me
1122
02:50:06,133 --> 02:50:09,469
Three balls in one week, it's too much
1123
02:50:10,137 --> 02:50:14,682
I can't wait for it to end.
I can't think why everybody is so merry
1124
02:50:15,059 --> 02:50:16,476
Give me a hairpin
1125
02:50:18,812 --> 02:50:20,480
How boring
1126
02:50:26,487 --> 02:50:30,490
Until we've finished with all these
invitations, we must stay in the city
1127
02:50:31,158 --> 02:50:36,871
I can't wait to return to our villa
at San Lorenzo, to our quiet life
1128
02:50:37,498 --> 02:50:42,710
What are you saying? I'd like this ball
to go on for ever, it's lovely
1129
02:50:43,504 --> 02:50:45,505
What will the Trabias' ball be like?
1130
02:50:45,839 --> 02:50:49,509
I've ordered a green dress.
Bright green
1131
02:50:51,220 --> 02:50:52,845
How about you?
1132
02:50:54,848 --> 02:51:00,978
I'm so happy. Tancredi is so sweet.
You are all so sweet to me
1133
02:51:02,189 --> 02:51:04,190
I wish you were happier
1134
02:51:04,525 --> 02:51:08,528
What can I do about it?
I've never liked being among people
1135
02:51:09,863 --> 02:51:13,866
I don't even like dancing;
I've never been able to dance well
1136
02:51:16,203 --> 02:51:20,289
It depends on your partner;
find a partner you like
1137
02:51:20,541 --> 02:51:22,875
No, I'm not interested
1138
02:51:24,211 --> 02:51:28,214
Do you know how many young men
would be happy to court you?
1139
02:51:28,882 --> 02:51:30,883
You discourage them all
1140
02:51:33,220 --> 02:51:36,889
Like poor Cavriaghi, remember?
1141
02:51:38,559 --> 02:51:40,393
How you treated him, poor man
1142
02:51:44,481 --> 02:51:47,817
There you are.
I couldn't find you anywhere
1143
02:51:47,985 --> 02:51:52,905
We're tidying ourselves. Anyway,
I couldn't find you, you had vanished
1144
02:51:53,240 --> 02:51:56,242
I went to hear
what the Colonel was saying
1145
02:51:56,577 --> 02:51:59,829
He's no genius,
but he says many very sensible things
1146
02:52:00,122 --> 02:52:03,916
It's true, the new kingdom
needs order, legality, laws
1147
02:52:04,585 --> 02:52:06,669
It needs to stifle, first of all...
1148
02:52:06,837 --> 02:52:10,256
...any attempts at anarchy;
no more adventures or disorders
1149
02:52:10,924 --> 02:52:14,260
Even if that entails
severe or painful methods...
1150
02:52:15,596 --> 02:52:19,265
...like shooting those hotheads who
deserted to go back with Garibaldi
1151
02:52:20,392 --> 02:52:22,602
Do you think they'll shoot them?
1152
02:52:22,853 --> 02:52:28,232
Didn't you know? This morning at dawn.
And it's right; they were deserters
1153
02:52:46,293 --> 02:52:48,294
You would not have spoken like that once
1154
02:52:55,636 --> 02:52:57,303
My dear, you are mistaken
1155
02:52:57,888 --> 02:52:59,639
I've always spoken like this
1156
02:53:00,641 --> 02:53:03,643
Therefore, these are things
you cannot understand
1157
02:53:08,982 --> 02:53:11,317
Concetta, wait
1158
02:53:12,319 --> 02:53:14,862
Let me go!
1159
02:53:16,323 --> 02:53:18,658
I think I understand very well
1160
02:53:19,326 --> 02:53:23,663
I said you wouldn't have spoken like
that once. That's enough for me
1161
02:53:43,350 --> 02:53:47,061
She's so sweet, especially
when she becomes angry
1162
02:53:51,358 --> 02:53:55,027
Poor Concetta. The truth is,
she's still in love with you
1163
02:53:58,031 --> 02:54:01,701
- And are you still in love with me?
- Yes
1164
02:58:04,069 --> 02:58:06,070
Have you seen the Prince of Salina?
1165
02:58:38,645 --> 02:58:44,191
Don Calogero, it's time to go.
Pull yourself together
1166
02:58:48,989 --> 02:58:51,365
Coffee, please. Hot coffee
1167
03:00:27,087 --> 03:00:30,089
Thank you for this unforgettable evening
1168
03:00:30,423 --> 03:00:32,383
Must you go already?
1169
03:00:33,385 --> 03:00:37,304
We're going straight to the barracks,
as tradition demands of us soldiers
1170
03:00:37,764 --> 03:00:39,765
Our duty obliges us
1171
03:00:40,100 --> 03:00:44,436
Moreover, our tasks for this night
are not yet over
1172
03:00:54,447 --> 03:00:57,658
Tidy up a little and extinguish the candles
1173
03:01:06,251 --> 03:01:11,130
Dear Margherita, thank you so much
for the wonderful evening. Magnificent
1174
03:01:46,833 --> 03:01:49,877
There you are.
Aunt is looking for you everywhere
1175
03:01:50,086 --> 03:01:53,005
Angelica, Concetta and Carolina
are ready to leave
1176
03:01:53,715 --> 03:01:57,843
Can you do me a favor, my boy?
I've already said my farewells
1177
03:01:58,178 --> 03:02:02,431
Will you call the carriage
for your aunt? I'm walking back
1178
03:02:02,724 --> 03:02:06,185
- Walking? At this hour?
- I need some air
1179
03:02:10,023 --> 03:02:11,523
Don't you feel well?
1180
03:02:11,775 --> 03:02:13,776
A slight headache; fresh air will help
1181
03:02:14,527 --> 03:02:16,528
Everything went very well,
don't you think?
1182
03:02:16,738 --> 03:02:20,657
Marvelously, uncle. You know,
I'll soon have some good news for you
1183
03:02:20,950 --> 03:02:23,577
I just spoke to Finzori.
It seems that at the next elections...
1184
03:02:23,787 --> 03:02:25,204
You'll be the candidate
1185
03:02:25,538 --> 03:02:27,206
You knew about it?
1186
03:02:28,541 --> 03:02:30,417
Excuse me for a moment
1187
03:03:34,607 --> 03:03:37,609
O star, O faithful star!
1188
03:03:38,611 --> 03:03:42,281
When will you decide to give me
a less fleeting appointment...
1189
03:03:42,615 --> 03:03:47,494
...far from everything,
in your realm of perennial certainty?
1190
03:04:04,637 --> 03:04:08,432
An excellent army.
They do things properly
1191
03:04:14,230 --> 03:04:16,064
Just what we needed...
1192
03:04:19,652 --> 03:04:21,445
...for Sicily
1193
03:04:22,322 --> 03:04:23,991
Now...
1194
03:04:24,082 --> 03:04:25,991
...we can take it easy
1195
03:04:26,305 --> 03:04:32,475
