Yes, Salvatore di Vita.

You mean you don't know him, Miss?

That's right, and I'm his mother.

I've been calling from Sicily,
all day long.

I see... he's not there.

Could you please give me
his number?

656 22 O56.

Thank you. Goodbye.

It's useless to call.

He's busy.
God knows where he is.

He won't even remember.

Forget it.

He hasn't been here for 30 years.

You know what he's like.

He'll remember.

I'm sure he will. I know him
better than you do.

If he finds out we didn't tell him,
he'll be angry.

I'd like to talk
to Signor Salvatore di Vita.

I'm his mother.

Salvatore... what time is it?

It's late.

Sorry, I couldn't phone
to say I'd be late.

Go back to sleep.

Your mother phoned.

She thought I was someone else.

What did you tell her?

Nothing, I didn't want
to disappoint her.

We had a long chat.

She said you've not visited her
for 30 years.

She must come to see you.

She called just to say that?

No, she said someone's died.
Someone called Alfredo.

The funeral is tomorrow.

Who is he? A relative?

No... go back to sleep.

How can I say Mass with this boy?

TOR')!

Thank God for that!

How many times must I tell you?
Without the bell, I don't know where I am.

Always asleep!
What do you do at night? Eat?

Father Adelfio, at home
we don't even eat at lunchtime.

The vet says that's why I'm tired.

I'll tell you why you're tired.
Think I don't know?

Run along now, I've something to do.

- Can I come with you?
- No, you can't.

- Yes, yes, yes!
" Tow. go away!

I want to! I want to!

That's enough, go away!

Alfredo!

- Yes!
- You can start.

Here we go again.

The frame!

THE LOWER DEPTHS

One day, everything will be ours.

We'll go away together.

To live the good life

where no one knows us.

Stop dreaming.

You don't love me anymore.

Why?

No!

One pair, two pairs!

100 lire! Pure nylon!

You mustn't come here.

How many times
do I have to tell you?

You're only little.

If there's a fire,
you'll go up in smoke.

"And turn into a piece of charcoal."

You've got a big mouth.

One of these days I'll cut it off.

Like that.

Can I have it?

Please can I have it?

- Well, can I or not?
- No!

Are you deaf or something?

I have to splice it back
before I return the film.

You're such a pest!

Then why didn't you splice these
before you returned the films?

Well... sometimes I can't find
the right place, so they stay here.

They kiss too much, anyway.

- Then I can have these.
- Now you listen to me.

Let's make a deal,
before I kick you up the ass.

- All these are yours, a present.
- Thank you.

But first, you don't come here again.
Second, I keep them here. Get it?

- All right.
- OK, so we're agreed. Now, scram!

What kind of deal is that?

If they're mine,
how come you keep them?

Don't come back or I'll thrash you!

"Shoot first, think later.

"This is no job for weaklings,
cuckolds and traitors."

"Hey, you bastard!
Hands off that gold!"

"Stay away from me,
you dirty swine,

"or I'll smash your face in!"

Morn?

If the war's over,
why doesn't Dad come back?

He'll come back, you'll see.
One of these days.

I don't remember him.
Where is Russia?

It takes years to get there...
and years to come back.

Go to bed, Totc').
It's late.

You can fool your mother,
but not me.

Get your piece of paper
and join the police, you little wretch!

Come on!
Get in there and study!

Well? How much is 5 x 5?

30.

Quiet!

The five times table, you dimwit!

1x5=5

2x5=1Q

3x5=15

4x5=2Q

5x5?

40.

Quiet!

Boccia!

25.

Learn your multiplication tables,
or you'll never get a job.

For the last time...

- ...5 x 5?
- Christmas!

I have a ticket,
I want to see the film.

Get down. You can't stay here.

Go back to your seat!

They're all over the place,
like rabbits.

Little monsters.

I must go to Oregon.

Wait for me at my ranch.

Wait for a dead man?

A star-studded cast

featuring John Wayne,
Claire Trevor...

Good evening, everyone!

- Can't I say hello?
- Double-bill today.

So what? I come hereto sleep.

- What do you smoke?
- Americans.

Cut the news, Alfredo!

ITALY DOESN'T FORGET
RESISTANCE RALLY

The men and women who fought
in the Resistance

are reunited in Rome
for the First Resistance Rally

organized by CVL.
Prime Minister Parri...

Good evening, everyone!

THE EARTH TREMBLES
EPISODE OF THE SEA

Featuring
SICILIAN FISHERMEN

What does it say?

- Who knows? I'm illiterate.
- You too?

The Italian language is not spoken
by the poor in Sicily.

Twelve hours of blood and sweat

to take home the bare minimum
required not to die of hunger.

And yet, their nets

were full
when they pulled them up.

All day fishing,
and what do we have to show for it?

That may be so,

but what can we do?

I knew it!

20 years going to the cinema,
and I've never seen a kiss!

Will we ever?

Son of a bitch!

Good evening, Don Vincenzo.

- You and you, to work.
- What about me, Don Vincenzo?

You? Get a job from Stalin.

Don't you worry, his day will come.

I always get left out.

Nice film. That young man
worked so hard.

- Pity he was so unlucky.
- Why did he go and buy that boat?

Idiot!
You didn't understand anything.

Right, boys.
Here you work from dawn to dusk.

And no questions about pay.

Morn...

I've been looking for you all day.
Did you buy the milk?

No.

- And the money?
- Stolen.

You went to the cinema?

Yes.

The cinema!

- Signora Maria, wait!
- Leave him alone, you're hurting him.

And you, why did you tell lies?
You know you got in free.

Go on, tell your mother.

Maybe he lost it inside.
How much?

50 lire.

What did you find
under the seats tonight?

A comb...

...two heels...

...a tobacco pouch...

And... 50 lire.

See?

Thank you, Alfredo.

- Good night.
- Good morning.

Good night.

Let's go.

I understood right away.

The square is mine!

It's my square!

It's midnight. Midnight!

Out! I must close the square.

Hard on the feet, eh, Father?

Going, it's downhill
and all the saints help you.

Corning back, the saints just watch.

If that's God's will...

- See you tonight.
- See you.

What's wrong?

- My foot!
- Your foot this time?

Always something...

Oh dear, what can we do?

Did you know my father, Alfredo?

Of course I knew him.

Tall, thin, good-tempered,
with a mustache like mine.

He always smiled.
He looked like Clark Gable.

Now I'm older, Alfredo,
and I'm in year five,

I'm not asking to go into the booth,
but couldn't we at least be friends?

"I choose my friends for their looks,
and my enemies for their intelligence."

You're too clever to be my friend.

I always tell my children

to be careful
how they choose their friends.

But you don't have any children.

But when I do, I'll tell them.

Don't cry, don't cry.

It's all right, I'm here.

The fire's out.
It's over, I'm here.

Morn, what happened?

You scoundrel!

Your sister could have burned
to death because of you!

You'll be the end of me!

I told you not to keep your films
near the fire.

You even burned my photos.

- You and your films!
- He was burning down the house.

Aren't you ashamed
of playing games with him at your age?

- What have I done?
- Who gave him the films?

Don't give them to him, he's crazy.

All he talks about
is you and the cinema.

Swear you won't let him in again.

I give you my word.

May God send your father home,
he'll deal with you.

Dad is not coming back,
and I know why. He's dead.

No, it's not true!

He'll be back, you'll see.

THE END

They smoke like chimneys.

No! Go and buy a ticket!

No!

What was that?

I'll make mincemeat out of you!

You'll reckon with me!

Shameless!

Signora Anna!

Alfredo.

Don't blame me,
your wife told me to bring your lunch.

Give it here.

I told Morn
you didn't give me the film.

It wasn't your fault.

I thought you were joking
when you said

the film could catch fire.

I just wanted to tell you.
Now I'll go.

Totc')... come here.

Come and sit down.

Now, listen. I started this job
when I was ten.

We didn't have
these modern machines then.

Films were silent.

You turned the projector by hand
with a crank.

All day long!

And it was so hard,
that damned crank.

If you got tired,
and slowed down a bit,

everything was burned,
in a flash.

So why don't you teach me?

Now there's no crank and it's easy.

Because I don't want to, Totc').

This is no job for you.

You work like a slave,
always alone.

You watch the same film 100 times.
Nothing else to do.

You end up talking
to Greta Garbo and Tyrone Power.

Always working.
Every holiday, Easter, Christmas...

You only get Good Friday off.

And if they hadn't put Christ
on a cross, we'd work even then.

So why don't you change jobs?

Because I'm stupid.

Who else around here
would be a projectionist? No one.

It takes an imbecile like me.

It's my luck.

So, you want to be
a stick-in-the-mud like me?

No.

Good boy.

It's for your own good.

Always stuck in here. Boiling hot
in summer, freezing cold in winter.

Breathing in fumes,
and earning a pittance.

Is it all bad?

You get used to it.

When the cinema is full,

you hear people laughing,
and that makes you happy.

It makes you feel good.

Like you're the one
who makes them laugh

and makes them forget
their troubles.

That, I like.

You didn't hear a word I said.
What are you up to?

I can't turn my back for a minute.

Your mother is right. You're crazy!

How on earth did he do it?
He watches and learns.

TOR')!

I'll tell the manager not to let you in.
Did you hear?

And I'll tell Father Adelfio.

No more altar boy,
you understand?

Alfredo!

Get lost!

' sot it!

I won!
I won the football lottery!

The Neapolitan has won the lottery!

Hey, Ciccio from Naples won the lottery!
Come along, quick.

These Northerners have all the luck!

The square is mine! All mine!

Keep still!
Are the horse-flies bothering you?

You got a lice factory up here.
Off you go.

What do you want?
A smack?

Off you go.

A shopkeeper owns two shops.

In one, he sells fruit.

Be seated.

Professor, here are the external candidates
for the School Certificate.

Quiet!

Quiet!

Quiet!

OK.

Rotten little stinker!

- Help me, Totb.
- Quiet!

- I haven't got a clue!
- Quiet!

Totc').

OK!

Francesco Messana. In the name
of the law, you're under arrest.

- Good riddance!
- Of course, it would end this way!

Son of a bitch! Pencil-pusher!

This is where it can catch fire.

If it does, you cut here and there,

or the whole reel will burn.
Got it?

Yes, Alfredo.

I won't stand for this sort of thing!

Which side is the gelatin on?

It tastes good.

- Picture!
- Picture!

Wake up, Alfredo!

These are the invoices.
Always keep them safe.

- Yes, Alfredo.
- Don't ever forget.

Stop him! Help. Thief! Help me!

This is for you.
Today you can load the reels.

- It's so high up.
- Now you can do it alone.

Stay still.

- What a woman!
- My turn!

Children, say goodbye to Peppino.
He's going to Germany.

Why won't you say goodbye?

My father says he's a Communist.

God bless you, Morn.

- Will he find work in Germany?
- Who knows?

It's like an adventure.
You live in hope.

Screw this country!

Go and work in Germany,
you and your Stalin.

Goodbye, Morn.

Goodbye, Peppino!
Come back soon.

We'll see you.

Good bye!

At least Germany
is closer than Russia.

After six years,
the return of spring fashion.

A fresh new look

unlike the pompous styles
of wartime.

I'll make mincemeat out of you!

"You'll reckon with me!"

Another sad page in the tragedy
of our men in Russia.

The Ministry of Defense

has released a new list
of Italian dead

until now considered missing.

The names will be posted
by the military authorities.

All the families concerned
will be notified.

Unfortunately,
we don't know where he's buried.

Here is the pension form
for you to sign.

GONE WITH THE WIND

Hadn't I told you? He's courting me.

Well, he's no oil painting...

Out! Go home!
We can't have another show.

It's late, can't you understand?
We can't show it again!

Some people have seen it twice.

We've been waiting an hour.

Tomorrow we'll show another film.

A Western, I promise!

Go to bed.

Close the doors.

They'll wreck the Paradise.
All hell will break loose!

Alfredo, you let us in!

What do you want me to do?

I've been waiting for three hours!

"The mob doesn't think.

"|t has no mind of its own."

The great Spencer Tracy
said it in Fury.

Well, what do you say?

Shall we let the poor devils
see the film?

I wish we could, but how?

"|f you have no faith in me,
have faith in what you see."

So, get your ass off that stool.

Pay attention.

Abracadabra...

...now we pass through these walls.

Look out of the window, kid.

It's beautiful, Alfredo!

Over there! Look, the cinema!

Bravo, Alfredo.

Thank you, Alfredo!

What on earth is going on?

It's the cinema.

To hell with you!

There's no sound.

_ She" We kee p
the ' Yes! m happy?

Want to go down?

Go on.

- Come, look at this.
- Oh, my God!

- Ah, Nunzio! Half price will do.
- As you wish.

You must buy tickets, folks.

Half price.

Get lost!
The square belongs to everyone.

Oh, no!

The square is mine!
Don't joke about it, it makes me mad.

The film is burning!

Alfredo!

Hold on!

I can't believe it,
the whole theater is on fire.

Alfredo! No! Alfredo!

Alfredo, Alfredo. Help! Help!

Alfredo, Alfredo!

Help!

Poor Alfredo.
What a shame!

What a shame.

All burned!

It's all burned down!

All burned down!

What do we do now?

No more entertainment
in the village, nothing.

How can we rebuild all this?

Look at Ciccio!
You'd hardly know him.

Who has that kind of money?

The new Cinema Paradise!

Come in, come in!

This cinema is for you!

He's just a boy.
What about the child labor laws?

I got a license
through my connections.

But don't ask me how it works.

Officially, I'm the projectionist,
but the money goes to Tote.

Stay on your toes, Totc').
No falling asleep.

No more disasters.

Do as poor Alfredo taught you.

And God bless you, son.

Thank you, Father.

What's this? A funeral?
Life goes on. Music!

You've fallen in love
with that peasant.

Maybe.

And he's asked you to marry him?

Yes.

Then it's all over between us?

What a dish!

Our Father...

My God, they're kissing!

I shall not watch pornographic films.

Bravo, Don Ciccio!

Any room for me
in this new paradise?

Alfredo!

Bring him home afterwards, Toto.
I'm going now, Alfredo.

- Yes, yes.
- I'm so glad you're here.

How is school?

Fine, but now I'm working,
maybe I won't go anymore.

No. No, Totc').

Don't do that.
You'll end up with egg on your face.

Why? What does that mean?

It means...

...that this is no job for you.

Now the Paradise needs you

and you need the Paradise.
But it won't last.

One day you'll move on
to other things.

Other things.

More important things.
Definitely more important.

Yes.

I know.

Now I've lost my sight,
I see better.

Things I never saw before.

Thanks to you, who saved my life,
I'll never forget it.

Don't look so gloomy.

- I'm not gaga yet. Want proof?
- Yes.

Let's see.
Right now... for instance,

the film is out of focus.
Check it.

You're right, it's out of focus.

How did you know?

It's difficult to explain.

Watch the screen!
Pigs, bastards!

Look, don't touch.

I told you, it doesn't catch fire.

Progress always comes too late.

Workers of the world...

She's new.

Not bad.

She's nice.

Her father's a bank manager,
a big shot.

Jerks it off with his shirt,
not to get his hands dirty.

Faster, faster.

Last one's a sissy.

- Excuse me.
- Yes.

You dropped this.

Oh, thanks.
I hadn't noticed.

I'm Salvatore. And you?

Elena. My name is Elena.

I wanted to tell you, well...
the other day, at the station...

A small projector?
Is it your footage?

- Yes.
- What do you see?

A young bull being slaughtered.

A big pool of blood on the ground.

Another young bull steps
over the blood

on its way to its death.

Why did you stop?
What do you see now?

Nothing, we don't see anything.
It's out of focus.

A woman.

It's a woman!

Yes, a girl I saw at the station.

What's she like?

She's very nice.

My age, slim, with long brown hair.

Big blue eyes, and a clear gaze.

A beauty spot on her lip.

Very small, you only see it close.

And when she smiles, you feel...
I don't know.

Love!

Love.

I know how it is.

The blue-eyed ones are the worst.

You can never get close to them,
whatever you do.

"The bigger the man,
the deeper the imprint.

"And when he's in love,
he suffers knowing it's a dead end."

It's nice what you say, but sad.

I didn't say it. It was John Wayne
in The Shepherd of the Hills.

You old sneak!

- Hello, Elena.
- Hello.

Why are you running?

Because...

...| wanted to tell you...

You remember when...?

Nice day, isn't it?

Yes, lovely day.

Excuse me, I must go. Bye!

Bye.

What a jerk.

What a jerk!

"Nice day, isn't it?" How stupid!

I told you.
You thought I was kidding you.

Take it from me.
The blue-eyed ones are the worst.

But why? There must be a way
to make her understand.

Forget it, Tote.
Feelings can never be understood.

- You can't explain them.
- Oh, you made the world!

With all due respect to the Lord,
who made it in two or three days,

I'd have taken longer, but certain things
I could have done better.

Like I said, you have all the answers.

I'll tell you a story.
Just for you, Toto.

Let's sit down.
God Almighty!

Once upon a time...

...a king gave a feast.

The most beautiful princesses
were there.

A soldier who was standing guard

saw the king's daughter go by.

She was the loveliest one,
and he fell instantly in love.

But what is a simple soldier
next to the daughter of a king?

One day he managed to meet her

and told her he could no longer
live without her.

The princess was so taken
by the depth of his feeling

that she said to the soldier,

"if you can wait for 100 days

"and 100 nights under my balcony,

"I shall be yours."

With that, the soldier went
and waited one day, two days,

then ten, twenty.

Each evening the princess looked out,
and he never moved!

Always there,
come rain, come thunder.

Birds crapped on his head,
bees stung him, but he didn't budge.

After 9O nights...

...he had become...

...a|| dry and pale.

Tears streamed from his eyes.

He couldn't hold them back.

He didn't even have the strength
to sleep.

And all that time,
the princess watched him.

When the 99th night came,

the soldier stood up,

took his chair and left.

- What? Right at the end?
- Yes.

Right at the end, Totc').

Don't ask me what it means,
I don't know.

If you can figure it out,
you tell me.

Only one COPY?

You know I need two.

One for the Paradise
and one for the next town.

You promised,
and I've committed myself.

You screw it up,
and I'll tell you what I'll do.

I'll use the one copy
for the two cinemas.

I'm from Naples, and you don't screw
around with people from Naples.

I swore on the Virgin Mary
to my son.

We see the crib.
The child's asleep.

Get something, hurry!

Get something!

"The lawyer told me.
Now I know."

The lawyer told me.
Now I know.

"Everyone must know.

"Yes, everyone must know."

Everyone must know.

"Do you believe me?"

Do you believe me?

"Yes, I believe you."

Yes, I believe you.

"Our own home.
How I've dreamed of it!"

- Our own home.
- How I've dreamed of it!

"Tonino!"

Tonino! Mom! My son!

Mom!

"Mom."

Mom.

uMOm!"

Mom!

"The End."

THE END

I don't like it! I don't like it!

I cut the end credits to go faster.

Hurry back with Part One.
I'll show a newsreel.

OK.

I'll call the police. Take him!

Just a minute. Just a minute!

Give me Part Two.
Here's Part One.

Hurry!
The house is packed.

Get a move on!
Get the damn thing rolling.

- Wait, will you?
- They're going crazy.

Bunch of animals! Shut up!

Totb, what's going on?
They're furious.

It's been half an hour.

What do you want me to do?

Where's that son of a bitch?
I'll be ruined.

Calm down, it won't be long.

I'll have you know I left my wife
sick in bed in order to watch this film.

And I still haven't seen a thing.

If it doesn't start in ten minutes,
we want our money back.

Or I'll wreck the place with this cane.

Calm down!

Calm down.
Can I say something?

Tell you what.
I'll show you Part One another time.

We want to know how it ends.

Quiet! Quiet!

I've seen the whole film,
I'll tell you how it ends.

Please, don't ask me why.

What is it, Alfredo? Not now,
I must administer the sacrament.

Father, I need you urgently.

I have terrible doubts
tormenting my soul.

- Your soul?
- Yes.

- Father, I have sinned.
- Do that later.

Please, don't turn around.

- Just act normal. It's Salvatore.
- How did you get in here?

- Alfredo, that's a terrible thing to say.
- I know.

But take the miracle
of the loaves and fishes.

What about it?

I've often wondered.
How is it possible?

I had to talk to you.

You're beautiful, Elena.
That's what I wanted to tell you.

I can never find the words
when I see you

because you give me the shivers.

I don't know how other people do it.

It's my first time.

But I'm in love with you.

Father, I have sinned.

I absolve you from your sins
in the name of the Father

and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit.

Go in peace.

You're even prettier when you laugh.

Salvatore, you're very sweet,
and I like you.

But I'm not in love with you.

I don't care. I'll wait.

- For what?
- For you to love me.

Listen to me.

Every night, after work,
I'll wait outside your house.

When you change your mind,
open your window.

That's all. I'll understand.

You understand now?

Yes... finally, I see the light.

Next time, don't talk heresy.

You survived the fire in the cinema.

But from the eternal fire,
no one can save you.

Fifteen seconds to the New Year!

Fourteen, thirteen, twelve,

eleven, ten, nine,

eight, seven, six,

five, four, three, two,

One!

Salvatore!

Look, the car's still running!

How will we get home?

Stop. Stop!

Oh, God! It's my father.

Good evening, Signor Mendola.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Outdoor cinema tonight
at the lmperia

Last one's a sissy!

Standing room only!

Come on in! The show's just started.
Have your tickets ready.

Salvatore, my love... I'll have to spend
all summer here with my parents.

The days are never-ending here.
I see your name everywhere

in books, crosswords, newspapers.

You're always before my eyes.

Unfortunately, I have bad news.

We're moving to Palermo,
because of university.

It'll be difficult to see each other,
but don't worry.

I'll come and see you
at the Paradiso.

I'm blind!

By God's might, by man's running!
Rise up!

When will this damn summer end?

In a film, it'd already be over.

Cut, and there's a storm. Great!

Tell them I'm Ulysses!

Elena! But when...?

Today. You can't imagine
the excuses I made up.

I'm doing my military service in Rome.
I leave on Friday.

Wait for me at the Paradise.

I'll come on Thursday
on the five o'clock bus.

Maybe the army made a mistake.

Anyway, Rome is great.

Load the reels for tomorrow,
ready for the new man.

OK.

Hey, cheer up!
I'll wait for you, don't worry.

No one's taking your job.

It'll be waiting for you.
Don't look so gloomy.

Come on!

Salvatore di Vita, 3rd Battalion,
9th Company reporting for duty, sir!

Her father's been transferred
and no one knows where to?

Screw you, bastard!
You won't tell me, will you?

NOT KNOWN AT THIS ADDRESS

Come here.

You've lost weight.
They didn't treat you very well, did they?

They tell me you never go out
or talk to anyone. Why?

You know how it is.

Sooner or later, the time comes

when it makes no difference
whether you talk or not.

So you might as well shut up.

It's hot in here.

Take me to the sea.

At the Christmas party,
this lieutenant pinches a girl's behind.

She turns round.
It's the colonel's daughter.

Terrified, he says,

"if your heart is as hard
as what I've just felt, I'm a dead man."

Have you seen her?

No.

No one knows where she is.

It was probably meant to be like this.

Each of us has a star to follow.

Go away from here.
This land is cursed.

Living here every day,
you think it's the center of the world.

That nothing will ever change.

Then you leave, for a year or two.

And when you come back everything
is changed. The thread is broken.

You don't find what you're looking for.
What was yours is gone.

You need to go away for a long time,
for many years

before you can come back
and find your people,

the land where you were born.

But not now. It's impossible.

Now, you're blinder than I am.

Who said that? Gary Cooper,
James Stewart, Henry Fonda?

No, Totc').

No one said it.

This time, I'm saying it.

Life is not what you see in films.

Life is much harder.

Go away!

Go back to Rome.
You're young.

The world's your oyster.

I'm Old.

I don't want to hear you anymore.

I want to hear about you.

Don't come back.

Don't think about us.
Don't look back, don't write.

Don't give in to nostalgia.
Forget about us.

If you come back,
don't come and see me.

I won't let you in, you understand?

Thank you...

...for everything you've done.

Whatever you end up doing, love it.

The way you loved
the projection booth...

...when you were a little boy.

Is he already gone?
Tote, farewell!

I'm too late, what a shame!

It's Totc'). I knew it.

- Tow.
- Mom, how are you'?

See how nice the house is?

We've had it all redone,
thanks to you.

Come, I've got a surprise for you.

Are you tired?

You've time to rest
before the funeral.

No, Mom.
The flight is only an hour.

Don't tell me that,
after all these years.

Come,
I've put all your things in here.

He would be glad you came, Totc').

He always talked about you, always.

Right up to the end.

He really... really loved you.

He left something for you.

Before you leave,

come and see me.

How have you been?

When did you close it down?

Six years ago in May.
No one came any more.

You know it better than I do,
Signor di Vita.

The recession, TV, videos...

The cinema has become a memory.

The city has purchased the site
for a parking lot.

They're pulling it down on Saturday.
What a pity.

Why "Signor di Vita"?

It didn't use to be like that.

It's awkward to be casual
with an important person.

However, if you insist... Totc').

Excuse me.

Who would have believed it?
Tote...

He left this for you.

He never asked to see me?

No, never.

Your mother once said
you'd come if he wanted you to.

He was furious.

He said, "No! Tote must never
return to Gianca|d0."

He wasn't being mean.

He was a good man.

Who knows what went through
his head?

He started saying strange things
towards the end.

Just before he closed his eyes,

he told your mother
not to let you know.

Go ahead.

What are you thinking?

I've always been afraid
to come back.

And now, after all these years,
I thought I was stronger

and had forgotten many things.

But it's all right there
in front of me,

as if I'd never gone away.

And yet, I look around
and don't recognize anyone.

And you, Mom...

...| deserted you.

I ran away like a criminal

without an explanation.

I never asked for one.
You don't have to explain.

I always thought
you were doing the right thing.

Don't dwell on it.

You were right to leave.

It allowed you
to do what you wanted.

When I phone you,
it's a different woman every time.

But I haven't yet heard the voice
of someone who loves you.

I can tell.

All the same,

I'd like to see you settling down,
in love with someone.

But your life is there.

Here, there are only ghosts.

Let go, Totc').

It's my square. It's mine.

Check the leader.
Roll when you're ready.

OK. Congratulations,
I loved your film.

Thanks.

THE END
