00:00:48,797 --> 00:00:51,842
RED BRIGADES (BR): Marxist-Leninist
terrorist group founded in 1970.

3
00:00:52,050 --> 00:00:56,805
Kidnapped DC president Aldo Moro
in 1978, killed him after 55 days.

4
00:00:57,014 --> 00:01:00,684
Terrorists always maintained
they acted independently,

5
00:01:00,892 --> 00:01:04,896
but search for Moro
perhaps influenced by P2 lodge.

6
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,234
CHRISTIAN DEMOCRATS (DC): Christian
ethics party founded by De Gasperi.

7
00:01:09,443 --> 00:01:13,238
Organized in factions, governed Italy
from 1946 to early '90s, when,

8
00:01:13,447 --> 00:01:17,159
along with other parties, it was
swept away by "Bribesville" scandal.

9
00:01:17,409 --> 00:01:20,871
Main leaders: Aldo Moro,
Amintore Fanfani, Giulio Andreotti.

10
00:01:21,413 --> 00:01:22,789
P2 LODGE:

11
00:01:22,998 --> 00:01:27,127
Anti-Communist Masonic secret
society founded during Cold War.

12
00:01:27,336 --> 00:01:29,755
Run by Licio Gelli,
972 known members:

13
00:01:29,963 --> 00:01:33,759
Politicians, reporters, businessmen,
military, secret service personnel.

14
00:01:33,925 --> 00:01:37,095
Objective was to install
an authoritarian government.

15
00:01:37,304 --> 00:01:39,389
Silvio Berlusconi was also member.

16
00:01:39,765 --> 00:01:42,351
ALDO MORO: Statesman,
5 times head of government.

17
00:01:42,559 --> 00:01:47,272
As hostage, wrote hundreds of letters
pressing for negotiations with BR.

18
00:01:47,481 --> 00:01:52,194
Andreotti and Cossiga's hard-line
policy ruled out negotiations.

19
00:01:52,402 --> 00:01:56,948
In captivity, Moro wrote harshly
about many fellow party members,

20
00:01:57,157 --> 00:01:58,950
especially Andreotti.

21
00:02:02,704 --> 00:02:05,540
"IF YOU CANNOT SPEAK WELL
OF SOMEONE,

22
00:02:05,749 --> 00:02:08,210

ROSA FALASCA ANDREOTTI,

MOTHER OF GIULIO ANDREOTTI

25
00:02:21,556 --> 00:02:25,644
<i>"You have six months left", said the
army doctor when I was called up.</i>

26
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,649
<i>Years later I looked him up:
I wanted him to see I was alive,</i>

27
00:02:30,857 --> 00:02:32,818
<i>but he was dead.</i>

28
00:02:33,402 --> 00:02:35,362
<i>It always went that way.</i>

29
00:02:35,570 --> 00:02:38,657
<i>They'd predict my demise
and I'd survive.</i>

30
00:02:39,282 --> 00:02:41,576
<i>They'd die instead.</i>

31
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,540
<i>On the other hand, I've suffered
splitting headaches all my life.</i>

32
00:02:46,998 --> 00:02:51,586
<i>Now I'm using a Chinese remedy,
but I've tried everything.</i>

33
00:02:52,129 --> 00:02:55,424
<i>In its day, the drug
Optalidon looked really promising.</i>

34
00:02:57,134 --> 00:03:01,513
<i>I even sent a supply
to a journalist: Mino Pecorelli.</i>

35
00:03:04,099 --> 00:03:05,892
<i>He's dead too.</i>

ROME. THE EARLY 90s

46
00:07:40,459 --> 00:07:44,463
Massacres and conspiracies are
the work of Craxi and Andreotti

47
00:08:52,239 --> 00:08:55,867
- What time did you wake up, Giulio?
- 4:30.

48
00:08:56,076 --> 00:08:58,537
The great La Pira would wake at 3:30.

49
00:08:58,745 --> 00:09:00,872
He was a saint. I'm a sinner.

50
00:09:01,331 --> 00:09:05,085
- How many times, Giulio?
- As of today, seven.

51
00:09:05,252 --> 00:09:08,547
Seven times Premier,
twenty-five times minister.

52
00:09:09,464 --> 00:09:12,050
I never had
such an illustrious parishioner.

53
00:09:12,217 --> 00:09:15,095
We're all illustrious in God's eyes.

54
00:09:15,971 --> 00:09:17,431
Montanelli said:

55
00:09:17,639 --> 00:09:20,142
"De Gasperi and Andreotti
went to mass together,

56
00:09:20,308 --> 00:09:24,479
everyone thought they did
the same thing but it wasn't so.

57
00:09:25,564 --> 00:09:29,985
In church, De Gasperi talked to God.
Andreotti talked to the priest.

58
00:09:30,277 --> 00:09:32,320
Priests vote.

59
00:09:33,196 --> 00:09:34,906
God doesn't.

60
00:09:36,408 --> 00:09:40,245
Mario, I want to confess.

61
00:09:40,996 --> 00:09:42,414
Of course, Giulio.

62
00:09:56,303 --> 00:09:58,138
Premier, don't slouch.

63
00:09:58,347 --> 00:10:00,682
I'm comfortable like this.

64
00:10:13,904 --> 00:10:16,865
Premier, storm clouds are gathering.

THE ANDREOTTI FACTION
OF THE CHRISTIAN DEMOCRATS

74
00:12:31,583 --> 00:12:34,211
Fiorenzo, sit on the throne.

75
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,464
How's the Pope doing?

76
00:12:37,673 --> 00:12:39,633
I was on TV yesterday.

77
00:12:39,841 --> 00:12:42,969
There was talk of priests in trouble.
I quoted Pius XI.

78
00:12:43,178 --> 00:12:46,556
Whenever they mentioned
a priest in trouble to him,

79
00:12:46,765 --> 00:12:49,559
he always said the same five words.

80
00:12:49,768 --> 00:12:53,188
- What?
- What is the lady's name?

81
00:12:55,065 --> 00:12:58,151
- The Lad's in good form.
- Thank you for calling me "lad".

82
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:03,281
The usual nasty journalist pushed
the same old button:

83
00:13:03,448 --> 00:13:08,078
My faction... according to her
it's teeming with bad company.

84
00:13:08,286 --> 00:13:10,998
What did you reply?

85
00:13:11,206 --> 00:13:14,876
One can never be too cautious
about the company one keeps.

86
00:13:15,127 --> 00:13:19,548
After all, Jesus had Judas
amongst his disciples.

87
00:13:23,218 --> 00:13:26,722
- What's eating you, Salvo?
- Nothing.

88
00:13:27,597 --> 00:13:31,768
Rome's so beautiful.
And it's so calm too.

89
00:13:33,687 --> 00:13:39,359
Fiorenzo, I'd like Tedax
to stay in the pharmaceutical codex,

90
00:13:39,526 --> 00:13:42,446
it's relieving the suffering of many.

91
00:13:42,654 --> 00:13:45,657
Giulio,
Tedax is problematic, it doesn't...

92
00:13:45,866 --> 00:13:48,326
Tell me about my favourite pony.

93
00:13:48,493 --> 00:13:50,787
Craxi was on the warpath,
he kept yelling:

94
00:13:50,996 --> 00:13:54,583
"I'd sooner cut my balls off than see
your Mazza as bank president."

95
00:13:54,791 --> 00:13:58,253
- Who got the job?
- Our Mazza.

96
00:13:58,462 --> 00:14:01,840
Have you already asked Craxi
to comply?

97
00:14:04,092 --> 00:14:06,511
It's relieving the suffering of many.

98
00:14:06,928 --> 00:14:10,182
Giulio, I need to talk to you
in private.

99
00:14:10,390 --> 00:14:12,601
And Vittorio also has ideas
about the faction

100
00:14:12,809 --> 00:14:17,481
that not only differ from ours,
but they're excessive too.

101
00:14:19,691 --> 00:14:22,569
I propose...

102
00:14:24,363 --> 00:14:28,367
to arrange in
a more widely distributed manner...

103
00:14:28,533 --> 00:14:31,161
that would only be difficult...

104
00:14:31,370 --> 00:14:34,748
Boys, behave yourselves.

105
00:14:34,956 --> 00:14:38,043
Today is the inception
of the 7th Andreotti government.

106
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,380
Today's a day of celebration.

107
00:14:41,546 --> 00:14:42,964
Let's all behave.

108
00:14:43,173 --> 00:14:46,385
SALVO LIMA
DC MP alias "HIS EXCELLENC Y"

109
00:14:46,551 --> 00:14:48,762
Today's a day of celebration.

110
00:14:54,935 --> 00:14:57,270
Good morning, Premier.
Do you know the way?

111
00:14:57,479 --> 00:15:00,065
It's vaguely familiar, thank you.

112
00:16:18,310 --> 00:16:21,980
The President of the Republic,
Francesco Cossiga.

113
00:16:40,791 --> 00:16:42,709
THE 7TH ANDREOTTI GOVERNMENT

114
00:16:45,295 --> 00:16:47,297
Premier...

115
00:17:08,860 --> 00:17:10,654
<i>Apart from the Punic Wars,</i>

116
00:17:10,862 --> 00:17:14,366
<i>I've been blamed for everything
that's happened in Italy.</i>

117
00:17:14,616 --> 00:17:17,786
<i>They've honoured me
with several nicknames:</i>

118
00:17:18,328 --> 00:17:21,373
<i>The Divine Julius,
The First Letter of the Alphabet,</i>

119
00:17:21,581 --> 00:17:24,251
<i>The Hunchback, The Fox, Moloch,</i>

120
00:17:24,459 --> 00:17:27,295
<i>The Salamander, The Black Pope,
Eternity,</i>

121
00:17:27,504 --> 00:17:30,132
<i>Man of Darkness, Beelzebub.</i>

122
00:17:30,674 --> 00:17:32,718
<i>But I've never pressed charges</i>

123
00:17:32,926 --> 00:17:37,723
<i>for a simple reason:
I have a sense of humour.</i>

124
00:17:37,931 --> 00:17:39,808
<i>I have something else too:</i>

125
00:17:39,975 --> 00:17:43,812
<i>A vast archive
in place of an imagination.</i>

126
00:17:43,979 --> 00:17:45,856
<i>Every time I mention it,</i>

127
00:17:46,023 --> 00:17:49,609
<i>those who should shut up do so,
as if by magic.</i>

128
00:18:11,965 --> 00:18:14,092
- You may go in, ma'am.
- Wait!

129
00:18:14,384 --> 00:18:15,469
What's wrong?

130
00:18:16,511 --> 00:18:18,972
Everyone says he's a dangerous man.

131
00:18:21,433 --> 00:18:23,602
Andreotti isn't dangerous.

132
00:18:23,852 --> 00:18:27,064
He's daring.
That's quite a different thing.

133
00:18:29,900 --> 00:18:32,319
Is there anything I should know
about him?

134
00:18:33,653 --> 00:18:36,865
Yes, his hands. Watch them closely.

135
00:18:37,783 --> 00:18:41,620
If he twiddles his thumbs,
he thinks you're intelligent.

136
00:18:42,954 --> 00:18:44,831
If he plays with his ring,

137
00:18:45,123 --> 00:18:47,876
it means he disagrees
with what you're saying.

138
00:18:48,251 --> 00:18:52,005
If he rhythmically taps
his fingertips together,

139
00:18:52,339 --> 00:18:55,342
it means you'll be dismissed
within the next five minutes.

140
00:18:57,886 --> 00:19:01,181
What about when his eyes
suddenly dilate?

141
00:19:01,973 --> 00:19:06,311
I don't know, no one does.
Good luck.

142
00:19:07,104 --> 00:19:08,897
Thank you.

143
00:20:18,091 --> 00:20:21,011
Giulio, it's midnight,
we have to go.

144
00:20:21,219 --> 00:20:23,305
Don't forget you're leaving tomorrow.

145
00:20:23,513 --> 00:20:25,223
Yes, Livia.

146
00:20:39,529 --> 00:20:42,532
- Thank you for coming, Andreotti.
- Goodbye, Paolo.

147
00:21:13,772 --> 00:21:16,066
MOSCOW. THE KREMLIN

148
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:20,696
Hello, I'm the Premier.

149
00:21:20,904 --> 00:21:23,490
<i>I'm more important,
I'm his wife.</i>

150
00:21:23,699 --> 00:21:26,368
<i>- Did you go to play cards?
- Yes.</i>

151
00:21:26,576 --> 00:21:29,579
<i>I wore the coat
that Saddam Hussein gave you.</i>

152
00:21:29,788 --> 00:21:33,417
<i>Marisa loved it
and asked where I bought it.</i>

153
00:21:34,001 --> 00:21:38,880
<i>I was a bit hesitant to say because
it seemed like I was boasting.</i>

154
00:21:39,089 --> 00:21:41,466
<i>- How's Gorbachov?
- State Secret.</i>

155
00:21:41,675 --> 00:21:44,594
<i>Is that birthmark on his head
unsightly?</i>

156
00:21:44,803 --> 00:21:46,304
<i>I don't mind it.</i>

157
00:21:46,596 --> 00:21:48,181
<i>Are you going to bed now?</i>

158
00:21:48,390 --> 00:21:51,184
First I have to do
some Cossack dancing.

159
00:21:52,602 --> 00:21:56,148
- Say "trimarri".
- "Tvimavvi"

160
00:21:56,356 --> 00:22:00,569
- Say "vrigliari"
- "Vigliavi". That's enough.

161
00:22:00,777 --> 00:22:02,446
Goodnight, Giulio.

162
00:22:39,066 --> 00:22:42,819
<i>What will they remember
about you, Honourable Mr Andreotti?</i>

163
00:22:43,028 --> 00:22:46,073
<i>I don't intend to rake up
your dull career,</i>

164
00:22:46,740 --> 00:22:49,368
<i>that's not a crime.</i>

165
00:22:49,576 --> 00:22:52,663
<i>What will they remember about you?</i>

166
00:22:52,871 --> 00:22:58,460
<i>A cold organizer: Inscrutable,
incapable of doubts or thrills.</i>

167
00:22:58,669 --> 00:23:01,672
<i>Incapable of pity.</i>

168
00:23:05,133 --> 00:23:07,969
<i>What will they remember about you?</i>

169
00:23:12,182 --> 00:23:14,059
<i>Postscript:</i>

170
00:23:15,686 --> 00:23:18,438
<i>The Pope did ever so little,</i>

171
00:23:19,272 --> 00:23:22,109
<i>perhaps he'll feel guilty.</i>

172
00:23:26,279 --> 00:23:30,909
Your government's immobility damages
your race for the presidency.

173
00:23:31,118 --> 00:23:34,413
The government's about to fall,
but it shouldn't happen like this.

174
00:23:34,621 --> 00:23:37,499
Better to bluff it than snuff it.

175
00:23:37,708 --> 00:23:40,293
Politically, you're naive.

176
00:23:40,544 --> 00:23:43,380
Naivety and intelligence
always go together.

177
00:23:43,630 --> 00:23:46,675
- Are you calling me a bastard?
- Of course not.

178
00:23:46,883 --> 00:23:51,179
You're angry because I didn't defend
you from Cossiga's accusations.

179
00:23:51,638 --> 00:23:53,348
That's water under the bridge.

180
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:57,561
I couldn't oppose Cossiga,
we've been arguing for months.

181
00:23:57,894 --> 00:24:00,397
I'm just trying to see things
from a political viewpoint.

182
00:24:00,605 --> 00:24:03,525
You always want to talk
political strategies.

183
00:24:03,734 --> 00:24:06,236
I, on the other hand,
have a dreadful migraine today.

184
00:24:06,445 --> 00:24:09,448
Yes, but you always have a migraine.

185
00:24:15,704 --> 00:24:17,914
Remind Fiorenzo about Tedax.

186
00:24:18,123 --> 00:24:21,710
Let's make sure it stays
in the pharmaceutical codex.

187
00:24:23,295 --> 00:24:24,963
Amintore...

188
00:24:38,727 --> 00:24:40,312
Good morning ma'am.

189
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,274
I'm well, thank you. How about you?
Go ahead.

190
00:24:46,109 --> 00:24:48,028
Actually it's not true.

191
00:24:48,236 --> 00:24:50,947
I'm not very good
at making recommendations.

192
00:24:52,783 --> 00:24:55,952
I hate lies and I don't tell them.

193
00:24:56,536 --> 00:25:00,248
I've never believed
one can divide humanity

194
00:25:00,457 --> 00:25:05,462
into two groups: Angels and demons.
We're all average sinners.

195
00:25:05,962 --> 00:25:09,966
If one wants to keep a secret,
one mustn't even confide in oneself.

196
00:25:10,175 --> 00:25:12,636
One must never leave traces.

197
00:25:30,737 --> 00:25:32,614
Good evening.

198
00:25:36,284 --> 00:25:37,828
Come in.

199
00:25:38,787 --> 00:25:40,872
Take a seat please, ma'am.

200
00:25:48,380 --> 00:25:52,009
I used to come to this apartment
before you were here.

201
00:25:52,217 --> 00:25:55,262
- It was a furrier's.
- I know.

202
00:25:55,429 --> 00:25:57,014
Craxi used to say:

203
00:25:57,222 --> 00:26:00,642
"Andreotti is an old fox,
he'll end up in a furrier's one day."

204
00:26:00,851 --> 00:26:03,812
He was right, I really have.

205
00:26:04,021 --> 00:26:05,814
But alive.

206
00:26:12,195 --> 00:26:14,990
Does my company bore you
that much?

207
00:26:15,198 --> 00:26:16,658
- Not at all.
- Really?

208
00:26:16,867 --> 00:26:18,327
Really.

209
00:26:19,745 --> 00:26:23,123
You aren't at all curious about me.

210
00:26:23,332 --> 00:26:25,500
It's very unusual.

211
00:26:26,585 --> 00:26:30,297
I'm only curious about myself.

212
00:26:30,464 --> 00:26:33,508
My job is to inquire into myself.

213
00:26:36,261 --> 00:26:39,431
Does this noble work pay well?

214
00:26:42,059 --> 00:26:46,646
Yes, my husband pays for this
noble work very generously.

215
00:26:52,819 --> 00:26:54,988
What do you expect from me, ma'am?

216
00:27:00,661 --> 00:27:04,665
Sorry, I wanted to thank you.

217
00:27:04,873 --> 00:27:07,751
It's a very difficult time for me.

218
00:27:08,293 --> 00:27:10,295
I'm so vulnerable.

219
00:27:10,879 --> 00:27:12,506
You mustn't be.

220
00:27:12,714 --> 00:27:17,135
Vulnerability always commands
exorbitant prices.

221
00:27:17,344 --> 00:27:19,471
So, what must I do?

222
00:27:20,681 --> 00:27:24,685
Your young lover is transient
because youth is transient.

223
00:27:25,686 --> 00:27:27,479
But your husband isn't.

224
00:27:27,688 --> 00:27:30,691
He's a cure for your Ioneliness

225
00:27:30,899 --> 00:27:33,694
and for your vulnerability.

226
00:27:34,111 --> 00:27:38,448
Believe me, I'm familiar with
Ioneliness and it's not very nice.

227
00:27:38,657 --> 00:27:40,450
In my position

228
00:27:40,659 --> 00:27:45,288
I must have met about
300,000 people.

229
00:27:46,331 --> 00:27:50,335
Do you think this oceanic crowd
has made me feel any less Ionely?

230
00:27:53,130 --> 00:27:54,673
Thank you.

231
00:29:01,573 --> 00:29:02,491
Go!

232
00:29:14,044 --> 00:29:14,920
Go!

233
00:30:00,090 --> 00:30:03,719
Giulio, the Mafia murdered
Salvo Lima.

234
00:30:10,976 --> 00:30:14,521
VINCENZO SCOTTI
INTERIOR MINISTER alias "TARZAN"

235
00:30:14,688 --> 00:30:16,690
Teresa, how are you?

236
00:30:18,233 --> 00:30:20,652
That's good news.

237
00:30:22,070 --> 00:30:23,864
Yes, Teresa.

238
00:30:24,531 --> 00:30:28,118
Livia and I will visit you
on Sunday.

239
00:30:28,785 --> 00:30:32,122
All right. Goodbye.

240
00:30:36,335 --> 00:30:38,503
Teresa is my cousin.

241
00:30:38,670 --> 00:30:42,466
She's the same age as me
and she's always sick, in hospital.

242
00:30:43,133 --> 00:30:47,095
Once she was home for
three months: A remarkable event.

243
00:30:47,763 --> 00:30:51,683
To tell you the truth,
as much as I've tried,

244
00:30:52,267 --> 00:30:56,188
and I've tried a lot over the years
of militancy, friendship...

245
00:30:57,189 --> 00:31:00,317
I must say that I'll never
understand you.

246
00:31:02,944 --> 00:31:04,780
I don't know you.

247
00:31:05,572 --> 00:31:08,950
When they abducted Moro
I had spasms of vomiting.

248
00:31:10,118 --> 00:31:12,454
An uncontrollable reaction.

249
00:31:13,747 --> 00:31:17,084
Uncontrollable reactions
embarrass us.

250
00:31:17,709 --> 00:31:19,920
But deep down they reassure us,

251
00:31:21,755 --> 00:31:25,175
because they tell us
that we're alive and human.

252
00:31:26,426 --> 00:31:29,638
We have to go to Palermo
for the funeral.

253
00:31:32,182 --> 00:31:34,643
If they killed Lima to strike at me,

254
00:31:35,644 --> 00:31:38,730
a candidate in pectore
for the presidency of the Republic,

255
00:31:39,564 --> 00:31:42,818
it means there's another candidate
using these methods.

256
00:31:44,695 --> 00:31:46,697
I speak to the State,
I speak to the investigators,

257
00:31:46,822 --> 00:31:51,785
and I call on you to identify
and exemplarily punish

258
00:31:51,994 --> 00:31:55,038
the killers
and the mandators alike,

259
00:31:55,288 --> 00:31:58,208
so that this time
they cannot be shielded

260
00:31:58,417 --> 00:32:00,502
by a disheartening vagueness,

261
00:32:00,711 --> 00:32:03,797
especially the mandators.

262
00:32:04,006 --> 00:32:09,177
Public opinion calls for justice
to prevail.

263
00:32:09,386 --> 00:32:12,264
There should be
absolutely no doubt

264
00:32:12,472 --> 00:32:16,268
about the willingness
to investigate

265
00:32:16,810 --> 00:32:19,938
and expose the true facts.

266
00:32:34,536 --> 00:32:37,664
Lord, keep a close watch on me

267
00:32:37,831 --> 00:32:42,627
because I am becoming despicable in
the eyes of those who contemplate me.

268
00:32:44,046 --> 00:32:47,257
Lord, keep a close watch on me

269
00:32:47,507 --> 00:32:51,678
because I am becoming despicable in
the eyes of those who contemplate me.

270
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:31,009
Lima was suspected
of Mafia involvement for years.

271
00:33:32,052 --> 00:33:33,929
He generated too much gossip.

272
00:33:34,137 --> 00:33:38,558
So do many other members of your
faction. It's not a good sign.

273
00:33:38,809 --> 00:33:41,812
- I generate gossip too.
- But you're Andreotti, they aren't.

274
00:33:41,978 --> 00:33:44,398
That, at least, is not my fault.

275
00:33:44,648 --> 00:33:46,733
Why do you surround yourself
with such people?

276
00:33:46,900 --> 00:33:49,736
Wars are fought
with the troops available.

277
00:33:49,945 --> 00:33:52,114
The best people can choose
the best troops.

278
00:33:52,322 --> 00:33:55,283
Trees need manure
in order to grow.

279
00:33:56,034 --> 00:33:58,328
Your irony is atrocious.

280
00:33:58,578 --> 00:34:01,164
Irony is the best cure
against death.

281
00:34:01,373 --> 00:34:03,333
Cures against death
are always atrocious.

282
00:34:05,544 --> 00:34:07,421
You're suffering for Lima?

283
00:34:09,423 --> 00:34:11,842
I'm suffering for Moro.

284
00:34:12,050 --> 00:34:15,846
Everything always washed over me
without leaving a trace,

285
00:34:16,221 --> 00:34:18,265
but not Moro.

286
00:34:18,724 --> 00:34:22,144
I just can't get him out of my mind.

287
00:34:22,436 --> 00:34:25,772
It's like a second migraine,
but even more agonizing.

288
00:34:25,981 --> 00:34:29,901
Why didn't they take me?
I'm strong.

289
00:34:30,902 --> 00:34:32,779
Moro was a weak man.

290
00:34:32,946 --> 00:34:35,532
Don't say that.
It's just pointless remorse.

291
00:34:35,741 --> 00:34:38,577
If the Red Brigades
had wanted secrets,

292
00:34:38,785 --> 00:34:41,455
they could have talked to me
for a year.

293
00:34:41,830 --> 00:34:45,250
Moro had no idea that
certain things even existed.

294
00:34:48,295 --> 00:34:52,466
You know, Mario,
once they called me at home.

295
00:34:53,133 --> 00:34:55,594
No one has my private number.

296
00:34:56,011 --> 00:34:59,056
They said they'd kill me
on December 26th.

297
00:34:59,264 --> 00:35:02,351
I replied: "Thanks, now I'll spend
Holy Christmas in peace."

298
00:35:05,729 --> 00:35:09,775
I'm still here.
They were put off by a witty remark.

299
00:35:09,941 --> 00:35:13,570
The Red Brigades,
far too serious.

300
00:35:13,820 --> 00:35:16,948
Andreotti's 7th government
shouldn't have ended this way.

301
00:35:17,616 --> 00:35:22,079
It doesn't matter. Next time,
God willing, I'll get a little higher

302
00:35:23,580 --> 00:35:25,540
The Quirinal.

303
00:35:26,208 --> 00:35:30,504
The presidency of the Republic would
be your crowning achievement.

304
00:35:32,839 --> 00:35:34,716
How will you spend Sunday?

305
00:35:34,925 --> 00:35:38,929
The same way I spend all the others,
with my old constituents.

306
00:36:08,125 --> 00:36:11,503
- Thank you, Premier.
- You're welcome, ma'am.

307
00:36:21,138 --> 00:36:23,932
Do they grow that big
in Ferentino?

308
00:36:24,099 --> 00:36:28,020
In Sora? Thank you, Vittorio,
put them down there.

309
00:36:30,605 --> 00:36:32,607
This is for you.

310
00:36:37,279 --> 00:36:40,991
Here's a nice sailboat
and a lovely toy kitchen.

311
00:36:48,832 --> 00:36:52,711
- This is for you.
- Many thanks, Premier.

312
00:36:54,963 --> 00:36:57,841
- Premier, I'd...
- What's this?

313
00:36:58,050 --> 00:37:00,385
Household expenses...

314
00:37:01,136 --> 00:37:02,804
Goodness...

315
00:37:04,514 --> 00:37:09,019
- Any news on that job, Premier?
- You'll have to be patient.

316
00:37:09,186 --> 00:37:11,396
Well chaps,
we need to face up to the situation.

317
00:37:11,730 --> 00:37:14,524
Now that Cossiga had nominated
The Lad as life senator,

318
00:37:14,733 --> 00:37:17,319
what will happen
to his 330,000 votes?

319
00:37:17,569 --> 00:37:20,447
Bravo, that's exactly why

320
00:37:20,656 --> 00:37:25,077
I think I should be appointed
faction co-ordinator.

321
00:37:25,494 --> 00:37:27,162
Behave yourselves.

322
00:37:27,412 --> 00:37:30,874
I don't get it, what the hell
do you want to co-ordinate?

323
00:37:31,166 --> 00:37:35,170
Each one of us always took care
of our own regions.

324
00:37:35,837 --> 00:37:37,798
Behave yourselves!

325
00:37:38,006 --> 00:37:39,883
What do you want?

326
00:37:40,258 --> 00:37:42,594
Join in this political debate

327
00:37:42,803 --> 00:37:47,015
but don't just say "behave
yourselves". We need a concept.

328
00:37:47,224 --> 00:37:48,850
Where are you going?

329
00:37:49,059 --> 00:37:51,436
To the other Christian Democrat
faction, they're nicer.

330
00:37:51,645 --> 00:37:53,689
Niceness is detrimental
in politics.

331
00:37:53,897 --> 00:37:56,650
That's why I'm going,
because I'm not nice at all.

332
00:37:56,817 --> 00:37:58,360
Wait a moment.

333
00:37:58,568 --> 00:38:02,239
Pomicino, The Shark's leaving.

334
00:38:02,823 --> 00:38:06,201
And he's taking all those
330,000 votes with him.

335
00:38:10,497 --> 00:38:13,917
The Shark! The little fish...
who'll drown.

336
00:38:32,894 --> 00:38:34,312
Hi.

337
00:38:48,452 --> 00:38:50,662
How are you, my dearest Ambassador?

338
00:38:51,163 --> 00:38:54,041
My dear lady!
I haven't slept a wink

339
00:38:54,207 --> 00:38:56,251
since I missed
your last art exhibition.

340
00:38:56,668 --> 00:38:59,338
You didn't miss a thing,
I'm just a dabbler.

341
00:38:59,546 --> 00:39:01,340
Hooray for dabbling!

342
00:39:01,548 --> 00:39:03,759
I'm a surgeon
and Chancellor of the Exchequer...

343
00:39:03,967 --> 00:39:06,219
Professionalism is killing us.

344
00:39:06,428 --> 00:39:10,432
I beg you, please dance.

345
00:39:28,742 --> 00:39:31,411
Would you like a "Transgression",
ma'am?

346
00:39:31,662 --> 00:39:35,082
- What do you mean?
- It's a cocktail, ma'am.

347
00:39:35,248 --> 00:39:36,750
No, thank you.

348
00:40:09,408 --> 00:40:11,868
Premier, would you care for a Cuban?

349
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,205
Thank you, but I don't succumb
to lesser vices.

350
00:40:15,622 --> 00:40:17,499
Have you ever danced, Premier?

351
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:20,544
My whole life, ma'am.

352
00:40:32,055 --> 00:40:35,726
Here's the "fat girl"
I promised you.

353
00:40:35,934 --> 00:40:38,437
You can't imagine
what this mozzarella's like.

354
00:40:38,687 --> 00:40:42,149
- It reminds me of Sbardella.
- Reminds you? It is Sbardella.

355
00:40:42,524 --> 00:40:47,321
That traitor! How far will he get
without Andreotti?

356
00:40:47,529 --> 00:40:50,449
He won't get anywhere
without Andreotti.

357
00:40:51,366 --> 00:40:54,786
We're not members of a faction,

358
00:40:55,620 --> 00:41:00,792
we're in a theocratic empire
where one person rules: Andreotti.

359
00:41:01,001 --> 00:41:04,421
Eat Sbardella, Franco.
It'll calm you down.

360
00:41:04,838 --> 00:41:08,175
Listen Andreotti,
the aim of this dinner is obvious.

361
00:41:08,342 --> 00:41:12,512
We think you should be elected
President of the Republic.

362
00:41:12,763 --> 00:41:16,141
And we want to do everything possible
to make that happen.

363
00:41:16,308 --> 00:41:18,185
What do you think?

364
00:41:21,772 --> 00:41:25,067
I know I'm of average height, but...

365
00:41:25,651 --> 00:41:28,320
I don't see any giants around.

366
00:41:32,449 --> 00:41:34,785
I know my Giulio too well.

367
00:41:35,744 --> 00:41:37,496
He just said yes.

368
00:42:01,478 --> 00:42:03,188
Thank you.

369
00:42:03,605 --> 00:42:05,565
This watch

370
00:42:05,816 --> 00:42:08,986
isn't to commemorate the moment,
it's for the future.

371
00:42:09,903 --> 00:42:12,864
Its hands always point to the future.

372
00:42:13,073 --> 00:42:17,160
And you are the future.
I got it from Haussmann's.

373
00:42:17,369 --> 00:42:20,747
It's the brand that counts,
not the store.

374
00:42:20,956 --> 00:42:23,125
You make it tough to care about you.

375
00:42:23,333 --> 00:42:25,502
I never asked you to care about me.

376
00:42:25,752 --> 00:42:28,255
I know, but I care about you
all the same.

377
00:42:28,755 --> 00:42:31,717
And in all these years, you've never
shown me any affection. Never.

378
00:42:31,925 --> 00:42:34,094
I always defended you politically.

379
00:42:34,302 --> 00:42:36,847
Even when you made
incongruous remarks.

380
00:42:37,055 --> 00:42:39,850
Yes, but life isn't only politics.

381
00:42:40,058 --> 00:42:42,519
I'm not intelligent like you...

382
00:42:42,769 --> 00:42:44,855
I did some "incongruous" things,

383
00:42:45,063 --> 00:42:50,569
but I always covered the body part
directly below the coccyx for you.

384
00:42:50,986 --> 00:42:52,821
Always.

385
00:42:57,951 --> 00:43:00,996
Always, don't forget that.

386
00:43:02,414 --> 00:43:05,334
You just made
another incongruous remark.

387
00:43:07,544 --> 00:43:09,796
There's nothing else but politics.

388
00:43:10,005 --> 00:43:11,798
Talk to Fiorenzo.

389
00:43:12,007 --> 00:43:16,803
I'll be unhappy if Tedax is taken off
the pharmaceutical codex.

390
00:43:21,391 --> 00:43:23,018
What is it?

391
00:43:30,150 --> 00:43:31,943
Why did you get up?

392
00:43:36,448 --> 00:43:39,076
I wanted to wish you luck.

393
00:43:41,328 --> 00:43:43,288
Yes.

394
00:43:46,750 --> 00:43:51,254
If you get elected, will we live
in the Quirinal or here?

395
00:43:53,465 --> 00:43:55,258
Here.

396
00:43:55,467 --> 00:43:58,136
The Quirinal would drive you mad.
It's like being a prisoner

397
00:43:58,345 --> 00:44:00,472
with all those cuirassiers,
speakers and pastry-bearers.

398
00:44:03,850 --> 00:44:07,521
Yes Enea, five o'clock
will be fine. Thanks.

399
00:45:35,859 --> 00:45:37,778
Bastard.

400
00:45:50,582 --> 00:45:52,250
The order of business is:

401
00:45:53,293 --> 00:45:55,921
Election of
the President of the Republic.

402
00:45:56,129 --> 00:45:58,423
Thieves!

403
00:45:59,049 --> 00:46:01,426
Honourable members!

404
00:46:09,559 --> 00:46:12,145
Honourable Parisi!

405
00:46:12,312 --> 00:46:15,691
You're an old parliamentarian,
show some respect.

406
00:46:15,899 --> 00:46:17,818
- I'll press charges!
- Shame on you!

407
00:46:25,117 --> 00:46:26,785
Show some decency!

408
00:46:34,418 --> 00:46:37,462
Buffoons, buffoons!

409
00:46:41,008 --> 00:46:43,802
We have to nominate
the President of the Republic,

410
00:46:44,052 --> 00:46:46,304
we must remain united
so one of our men wins.

411
00:46:46,471 --> 00:46:51,351
My dear chaps, come to an agreement.
Talk frankly.

412
00:46:51,643 --> 00:46:55,355
If dear Arnaldo is a candidate,
I'm out of the race.

413
00:46:55,522 --> 00:46:59,109
If dear Giulio is a candidate,
I'm out of the race.

414
00:46:59,401 --> 00:47:00,986
I see.

415
00:47:07,617 --> 00:47:10,620
- How did it go?
- They both want to run.

416
00:47:10,829 --> 00:47:13,081
I'd like to finish speaking,
Mr President.

417
00:47:13,332 --> 00:47:16,793
You've already had two applauses,
let someone else talk.

418
00:47:17,044 --> 00:47:19,087
I just want to finish
a line of reasoning.

419
00:47:19,504 --> 00:47:22,382
That's enough reasoning,
let's vote.

420
00:47:22,591 --> 00:47:25,969
Honourable member,
reasoning is optional for you.

421
00:47:41,568 --> 00:47:44,613
Four ballots and we still
don't have a real candidate.

422
00:47:45,155 --> 00:47:48,950
Agnelli asked me
if this would go on all week.

423
00:47:49,201 --> 00:47:51,828
Is he worried about the weekend?

424
00:47:52,079 --> 00:47:55,374
Franco, I don't discuss
politics with you, just sports.

425
00:47:55,540 --> 00:47:58,418
I discuss politics with Giulio.

426
00:48:00,420 --> 00:48:04,841
The immobility of Andreotti's
government has multiplied its enemies

427
00:48:05,050 --> 00:48:07,636
If we vote for him,
they'll assault us.

428
00:48:07,844 --> 00:48:09,638
You haven't understood a thing.

429
00:48:09,888 --> 00:48:11,473
You hammer us for a year

430
00:48:11,723 --> 00:48:15,727
and then ask us to vote
the big boss into the Quirinal.

431
00:48:16,103 --> 00:48:19,648
Andreotti in the Quirinal and
Forlani as head of the D.C. Party.

432
00:48:19,856 --> 00:48:22,901
If you want Forlani in the Quirinal,
don't complain afterwards.

433
00:48:23,151 --> 00:48:26,822
If Forlani gets the presidency,
De Mita becomes party leader.

434
00:48:27,030 --> 00:48:29,449
And De Mita will hinder Craxi
from becoming premier.

435
00:48:29,616 --> 00:48:31,535
That's why we have to get
Andreotti into the Quirinal,

436
00:48:31,743 --> 00:48:35,455
and leave Forlani as party leader
and Martinazzoli as vice premier.

437
00:48:35,622 --> 00:48:38,834
See how simple, clear
and scientific it is?

438
00:48:42,587 --> 00:48:45,882
See all these people?
See the opposition?

439
00:48:46,133 --> 00:48:49,678
Andreotti supporters are everywhere,
above suspicion.

440
00:48:49,886 --> 00:48:53,390
Not only in the Christian Democrats:
I'm cross-party.

441
00:48:56,810 --> 00:49:00,564
The killer was about to be revealed,
I never want to know.

442
00:49:21,752 --> 00:49:25,464
The candidates will fall, one by one.

443
00:49:26,506 --> 00:49:30,510
Then we'll move in,
rested and redemptive.

444
00:49:31,845 --> 00:49:34,681
What do the illegal bookmakers say?

445
00:49:35,682 --> 00:49:39,519
Spadolini is at one and a half,
Andreotti four, Craxi eight,

446
00:49:40,145 --> 00:49:42,230
lotti ten, Forlani twelve,

447
00:49:42,814 --> 00:49:45,359
De Mita fifteen
and Scalfaro twenty.

448
00:49:47,319 --> 00:49:50,364
- Cossiga?
- Cossiga's not on the list.

449
00:49:50,530 --> 00:49:52,783
Did they forget him?

450
00:49:53,283 --> 00:49:54,534
Will you vote for him?

451
00:49:54,701 --> 00:49:57,037
No, I can't stand him.

452
00:49:57,412 --> 00:50:00,624
- What does that mean?
- I could never stand him.

453
00:50:00,874 --> 00:50:04,086
Not voting for him is dangerous
for you and us too.

454
00:50:05,545 --> 00:50:08,924
I'm asking you as a favour,
do it for me. Just this once.

455
00:50:09,132 --> 00:50:12,678
- All right.
- Dry your hands, hurry.

456
00:51:11,361 --> 00:51:14,114
Let us observe a one-minute silence

457
00:51:14,323 --> 00:51:18,035
in memory of Giovanni Falcone,
magistrate.

458
00:51:35,010 --> 00:51:37,429
Here are the ballot results:

459
00:51:38,847 --> 00:51:43,602
Present voters 1002,
no abstentions.

460
00:51:44,728 --> 00:51:48,774
Absolute majority
of the assembly: 508.

461
00:51:49,816 --> 00:51:51,360
Voting went as follows...

462
00:51:51,568 --> 00:51:54,946
- Watch Andreotti closely.
- Scalfaro 672 votes...

463
00:51:55,155 --> 00:51:59,451
- He's waited for this all his life.
- Miglio 75, Cossiga 63...

464
00:51:59,660 --> 00:52:05,624
Volponi 50, Valiani 36,
Forlani and Spadolini 7,

465
00:52:06,667 --> 00:52:08,418
Andreotti and Vassalli 6,

466
00:52:09,127 --> 00:52:10,712
Conso and lotti 4,

467
00:52:11,672 --> 00:52:15,092
Bossi and Scalfari 3,
Guido Quaranta 2.

468
00:52:16,259 --> 00:52:21,598
Invalid ballots: 15,
blank ballots: 38, void ballots: 11.

469
00:52:21,890 --> 00:52:25,185
I declare the elected
President of the Republic to be

470
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,563
the Honourable Oscar Luigi Scalfaro.

471
00:52:35,904 --> 00:52:38,073
Keep watching him.

472
00:52:38,281 --> 00:52:41,493
Watch and learn how to behave.

473
00:52:49,751 --> 00:52:52,963
<i>I never kissed my mother.
Never!</i>

474
00:52:53,296 --> 00:52:57,801
<i>Then again, Judas kissed a lot,
and he wasn't sentimental.</i>

475
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:02,597
<i>She wasn't at all impressed
that I was an MP or minister.</i>

476
00:53:03,265 --> 00:53:05,308
<i>I cried when she died.</i>

477
00:53:05,559 --> 00:53:08,020
<i>During my life,
I cried twice more:</i>

478
00:53:08,228 --> 00:53:12,649
<i>When De Gasperi died and the first
time I was nominated vice-minister.</i>

479
00:53:13,483 --> 00:53:16,528
<i>Once, I made a vow,</i>

480
00:53:17,112 --> 00:53:20,073
<i>it was when the Red Brigades
kidnapped Aldo Moro.</i>

481
00:53:20,657 --> 00:53:24,202
<i>I vowed to give up ice cream
if he was released.</i>

482
00:53:26,705 --> 00:53:29,875
<i>I have a weakness for ice cream.</i>

483
00:53:35,380 --> 00:53:39,426
<i>If there were direct elections in
Italy for President of the Republic</i>

484
00:53:40,344 --> 00:53:42,637
<i>I would've won.</i>

485
00:53:43,722 --> 00:53:47,434
<i>I forgive you, but you've got to
get down on your knees.</i>

486
00:53:47,642 --> 00:53:52,606
<i>If you have the courage to
change... but they won't change.</i>

487
00:53:54,566 --> 00:53:58,278
<i>To change, change...</i>

488
00:54:00,030 --> 00:54:04,117
<i>They don't want to change,
they won't change...</i>

489
00:54:09,081 --> 00:54:13,752
<i>Change and stop causing
death and destruction.</i>

490
00:54:14,294 --> 00:54:16,797
<i>Go back to being Christians.</i>

491
00:54:17,005 --> 00:54:21,218
<i>We pray for this in the name
of Jesus who said it on the cross:</i>

492
00:54:21,468 --> 00:54:25,764
<i>Father, forgive them
for they know not what they do.</i>

493
00:55:15,731 --> 00:55:20,819
Politicians, businessmen: I'm worried
about this recent wave of suicides.

494
00:55:21,570 --> 00:55:23,572
Some can't stand imprisonment,

495
00:55:23,780 --> 00:55:27,868
others the accusations
of corruption or bribery...

496
00:55:28,118 --> 00:55:31,955
and they kill themselves...
but are they suicides, Premier?

497
00:55:33,415 --> 00:55:35,167
By the way,

498
00:55:35,375 --> 00:55:39,004
Craxi says you're the puppeteer
behind Bribesville.

499
00:55:39,212 --> 00:55:40,839
What nonsense!

500
00:55:41,048 --> 00:55:45,135
Your colleagues are falling prey
to corruption and extortion.

501
00:55:46,261 --> 00:55:49,890
Craxi, Forlani, De Mita,
Martelli, La Malfa.

502
00:55:50,390 --> 00:55:51,933
But not you.

503
00:55:52,142 --> 00:55:55,646
This appallingly big scandal
hasn't touched you.

504
00:55:56,396 --> 00:56:00,776
I feel compassion
and a sense of sadness for them.

505
00:56:00,942 --> 00:56:04,237
But, I don't think they're finished.

506
00:56:04,446 --> 00:56:08,408
I don't believe
they're personally responsible

507
00:56:08,659 --> 00:56:11,703
or that they should disappear
from the political scene.

508
00:56:12,871 --> 00:56:15,374
I don't want to talk
about Bribesville

509
00:56:15,624 --> 00:56:20,587
but about a piece I'd like to write
on an almost philosophical theme.

510
00:56:21,463 --> 00:56:23,382
This theme is chance.

511
00:56:24,049 --> 00:56:28,303
I don't believe in chance,
I believe in the will of God.

512
00:56:29,096 --> 00:56:32,599
But you should believe in chance!

513
00:56:35,185 --> 00:56:36,728
Well, Premier,

514
00:56:36,895 --> 00:56:40,774
is it by chance that the families
of assassination victims hate you?

515
00:56:40,941 --> 00:56:43,068
Dalla Chiesa's son hates you.

516
00:56:43,276 --> 00:56:46,905
He says that you instigated
his father's murder.

517
00:56:47,572 --> 00:56:49,741
Aldo Moro's wife hates you

518
00:56:49,908 --> 00:56:53,245
and holds you responsible
for her husband's death.

519
00:56:53,745 --> 00:56:58,750
Does banker Roberto Calvi's wife
hate you by chance?

520
00:56:58,959 --> 00:57:03,922
She said you threatened
then ordered Calvi's murder.

521
00:57:04,756 --> 00:57:08,176
She says the Vatican Bank
didn't kill him, but two people:

522
00:57:08,844 --> 00:57:12,931
Andreotti and Cosentino,
who's also dead now.

523
00:57:13,807 --> 00:57:18,228
And I wonder, is it by chance
that you were Interior Minister

524
00:57:18,437 --> 00:57:21,773
when the bandit Pisciotta was killed
with a poisoned coffee?

525
00:57:21,982 --> 00:57:26,361
Maybe Pisciotta could have revealed
the instigators of Giuliano's murder.

526
00:57:27,988 --> 00:57:33,243
Was banker Michele Sindona killed
in the same way by chance?

527
00:57:33,452 --> 00:57:38,373
He too could have made some
uncomfortable disclosures in prison.

528
00:57:38,915 --> 00:57:44,379
Is it by chance that everyone says
you repeatedly protected Sindona?

529
00:57:44,588 --> 00:57:47,299
Is it by chance that Evangelisti,
your deputy,

530
00:57:47,507 --> 00:57:52,304
met Sindona when he was on the run,
at a toy shop in New York?

531
00:57:53,555 --> 00:57:56,516
Is it by chance that
the Magistrate Viola says:

532
00:57:56,725 --> 00:57:59,394
If you hadn't protected Sindona,

533
00:57:59,603 --> 00:58:02,898
the Ambrosoli crime
wouldn't have happened?

534
00:58:03,148 --> 00:58:05,108
Furthermore,

535
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:09,613
you jot down everything scrupulously
in your diary, so is it by chance

536
00:58:10,072 --> 00:58:13,116
that you forgot to write
about the Ambrosoli crime?

537
00:58:14,493 --> 00:58:20,040
Is it by chance that from '76-'79,
when you were Premier,

538
00:58:21,625 --> 00:58:25,629
all the secret service chiefs were
members of the P2 Masonic lodge?

539
00:58:26,380 --> 00:58:31,468
Is it by chance that in your frequent
meetings with P2 head, Licio Gelli,

540
00:58:32,219 --> 00:58:36,765
you talked exclusively about
South American desaparecidos?

541
00:58:36,973 --> 00:58:40,394
That's what you said:
Just friendly chit-chat.

542
00:58:41,395 --> 00:58:45,065
Finally, is it by chance that
you've been dragged into

543
00:58:45,315 --> 00:58:48,402
nearly every scandal
that's afflicted this country?

544
00:58:48,610 --> 00:58:54,199
And I'm omitting to mention all the
suspects that allege your Mafia links

545
00:58:57,411 --> 00:59:01,081
Basically, as Montanelli said:
It's one or the other.

546
00:59:01,289 --> 00:59:04,710
You're either the most cunning
criminal in the country

547
00:59:04,918 --> 00:59:07,045
because you never got caught

548
00:59:07,254 --> 00:59:12,676
or you're the most persecuted man
in the history of Italy.

549
00:59:15,220 --> 00:59:17,514
So I'm asking:

550
00:59:18,557 --> 00:59:22,352
Are all these coincidences
the fruit of chance

551
00:59:23,270 --> 00:59:25,480
or the will of God?

552
00:59:37,701 --> 00:59:40,871
Is it by chance that the influential
newspaper you founded

553
00:59:41,079 --> 00:59:44,541
was once saved by the Premier?

554
00:59:44,750 --> 00:59:47,419
That Premier was me.

555
00:59:47,627 --> 00:59:50,630
Your newspaper almost fell
into the hands of Silvio Berlusconi,

556
00:59:50,839 --> 00:59:53,216
an employer you wouldn't have liked.

557
00:59:53,425 --> 00:59:55,010
I stopped it from happening.

558
00:59:55,177 --> 00:59:58,305
Also thanks to the mediation
of the much-reviled Ciarrapico.

559
00:59:59,264 --> 01:00:02,809
I allowed you to regain
your independence and freedom.

560
01:00:03,060 --> 01:00:06,021
Independence and freedom
which allows you

561
01:00:06,188 --> 01:00:08,857
to ask me impudent,
specious questions.

562
01:00:09,107 --> 01:00:12,277
It's thanks to me that you can
be so arrogant,

563
01:00:12,486 --> 01:00:15,447
presumptuous and distrustful
towards me.

564
01:00:15,781 --> 01:00:18,533
That's not the case...

565
01:00:18,742 --> 01:00:21,578
The situation was
a bit more complicated.

566
01:00:22,913 --> 01:00:27,709
See? You're quite perspicacious,
you've worked it out for yourself.

567
01:00:28,460 --> 01:00:31,421
The situation was
a bit more complicated.

568
01:00:31,630 --> 01:00:36,510
But that doesn't just apply to
your story, it applies to mine too.

569
01:00:48,605 --> 01:00:54,111
TOTO' RIINA. MAFIA BOSS
OF BOSSES alias "THE BEAST"

570
01:02:11,647 --> 01:02:15,359
Now I'll tell you everything,
but hold on to your seats

571
01:02:15,567 --> 01:02:19,863
because it's all linked,
everything is connected.

572
01:02:21,448 --> 01:02:25,118
I repeat:
Hold on to your seats.

573
01:02:41,718 --> 01:02:45,180
GIANCARLO CASELLI
ATTORNEY GENERAL OF PALERMO

574
01:02:49,267 --> 01:02:53,188
Pippo Calo, Toto Riina
and Francesco Madonia

575
01:02:54,147 --> 01:02:56,984
made use of Licio Gelli
for their investments.

576
01:02:57,192 --> 01:03:01,530
Some of this money was invested
in the Vatican Bank

577
01:03:01,738 --> 01:03:05,617
where Gelli acted as banker
for the group.

578
01:03:05,951 --> 01:03:09,162
Sindona was banker
for the previous Mafia bosses:

579
01:03:09,913 --> 01:03:13,083
Stefano Bontate
and Salvatore Inzerillo...

580
01:03:13,291 --> 01:03:16,837
Yes, I met Licio Gelli
and Michele Sindona.

581
01:03:17,045 --> 01:03:19,256
Well-mannered, respectful people.

582
01:03:19,715 --> 01:03:24,094
Licio Gelli had a mattress shop near
the Christian Democrat headquarters.

583
01:03:24,302 --> 01:03:27,264
Pippo Calo killed
several relatives of mine,

584
01:03:27,431 --> 01:03:30,225
but at one time
we were great friends.

585
01:03:31,184 --> 01:03:35,856
Roberto Calvi appropriated
a substantial sum

586
01:03:36,064 --> 01:03:39,192
belonging to Gelli and Calo.

587
01:03:40,152 --> 01:03:43,989
Calvi's suicide was staged.

588
01:03:44,990 --> 01:03:48,035
Calvi was strangled
by Francesco Di Carlo,

589
01:03:48,285 --> 01:03:49,828
on Pippo Calo's orders.

590
01:03:50,746 --> 01:03:53,790
Pippo Calo was a very important man
in Cosa Nostra,

591
01:03:53,999 --> 01:03:58,045
he's capable of using his brain,
he was Cosa Nostra's man in Rome.

592
01:03:58,295 --> 01:04:00,589
He had links
with Bontate, then with Riina,

593
01:04:00,839 --> 01:04:03,925
with the Camorra, with the Vatican,
with the Secret Services,

594
01:04:04,134 --> 01:04:06,178
with the P2 and the Magliana Gang.

595
01:04:06,470 --> 01:04:08,722
- If Calo talked...
- If Calo talked...

596
01:04:08,972 --> 01:04:11,433
he'd die after saying
good morning.

597
01:04:13,268 --> 01:04:18,065
On the subject of Moro,
Pippo Calo told Bontate:

598
01:04:18,273 --> 01:04:23,362
"Don't you get it? His fellow
party members don't want him freed."

599
01:04:25,364 --> 01:04:30,369
In 1983, Badalamenti told me there
were secrets about Moro's kidnapping.

600
01:04:31,244 --> 01:04:34,081
Secrets that troubled
the Honourable Mr. Andreotti.

601
01:04:34,247 --> 01:04:37,751
Andreotti was worried
they could leak out.

602
01:04:38,377 --> 01:04:41,338
Only two people knew
about these secrets:

603
01:04:41,588 --> 01:04:45,258
General Dalla Chiesa
and Mino Pecorelli, the journalist.

604
01:04:52,140 --> 01:04:56,186
Badalamenti told me that although
we'd killed Pecorelli,

605
01:04:56,436 --> 01:04:58,605
it was a political killing

606
01:04:58,855 --> 01:05:03,527
commissioned by the Salvo cousins
as a favour to Andreotti.

607
01:05:03,902 --> 01:05:07,948
When Dalla Chiesa was murdered,
Badalamenti said:

608
01:05:08,198 --> 01:05:11,368
"They sent him to Palermo
to get rid of him.

609
01:05:11,827 --> 01:05:14,413
He hadn't done anything
in Sicily

610
01:05:14,705 --> 01:05:17,791
to justify all that hate
towards him."

611
01:05:18,208 --> 01:05:23,005
The Pecorelli and Dalla Chiesa cases
are linked, gentlemen.

612
01:05:24,131 --> 01:05:29,094
The government wouldn't give Dalla
Chiesa special anti-Mafia powers.

613
01:05:29,594 --> 01:05:32,431
When Dalla Chiesa was killed,
they blamed the Mafia.

614
01:05:32,848 --> 01:05:36,643
Some time after, I had a meeting
with Lima and Nino Salvo.

615
01:05:37,811 --> 01:05:40,939
If Dalla Chiesa was already powerless
on all levels, why kill him?

616
01:05:41,189 --> 01:05:45,235
For some politicians, he'd have been
more dangerous in retirement.

617
01:05:45,569 --> 01:05:48,488
We're the ones who'll be fucked
for a long time to come.

618
01:05:50,699 --> 01:05:55,537
Badalamenti told me he'd met up
with Andreotti in Rome,

619
01:05:56,204 --> 01:05:59,124
to thank him for his concern

620
01:05:59,333 --> 01:06:04,421
over a trial regarding Filippo Rimi,
Badalamenti's brother-in-law.

621
01:06:05,422 --> 01:06:09,301
Badalamenti told me that Andreotti
congratulated him, saying:

622
01:06:09,718 --> 01:06:10,761
"Men like you..."

623
01:06:11,136 --> 01:06:15,932
Men like you... are needed on every
street in Italy.

624
01:06:18,852 --> 01:06:20,771
BADALAMENTI'S ATTORNEY

625
01:06:31,281 --> 01:06:33,617
It was said by Ciro Varga
of the Vallelunga family,

626
01:06:33,867 --> 01:06:35,994
Cataldo Terminio
of the San Cataldo family,

627
01:06:36,244 --> 01:06:39,081
and Salvatore Ferrero
of the Caltanisetta family that...

628
01:06:41,083 --> 01:06:42,709
Giulio, I need to talk to you
in private.

629
01:06:43,835 --> 01:06:46,380
...the Honourable Mr Lima
was Andreotti's contact

630
01:06:46,672 --> 01:06:48,757
for everything that concerned
Cosa Nostra,

631
01:06:49,049 --> 01:06:51,259
especially the trials.

632
01:06:52,302 --> 01:06:56,890
Sebastiano Nardo told me
that Andreotti was "pricked",

633
01:06:57,724 --> 01:06:59,893
he was initiated,
a "man of honour".

634
01:07:08,026 --> 01:07:12,239
Bontate told me that Andreotti
went to Palermo to meet him,

635
01:07:12,531 --> 01:07:15,367
Lima, the Salvo cousins
and the Honourable Mr Nicoletti.

636
01:07:16,159 --> 01:07:19,413
It was between spring
and summer of '79.

637
01:07:19,955 --> 01:07:22,791
The meeting took place
on a hunting reserve

638
01:07:23,250 --> 01:07:25,752
and Bontate complained to Andreotti

639
01:07:26,712 --> 01:07:28,964
about the
Honourable Mr Mattarella's behaviour,

640
01:07:29,214 --> 01:07:32,759
who wasn't lending a helping hand
to the Mafia anymore.

641
01:07:44,104 --> 01:07:47,441
There was a second meeting
some months after Mattarella's death.

642
01:07:47,649 --> 01:07:49,443
We're in charge of Sicily

643
01:07:49,609 --> 01:07:51,987
and if you don't want
the D.C. Wiped out,

644
01:07:52,237 --> 01:07:54,323
you'd better do as we say.

645
01:07:54,531 --> 01:07:57,451
Otherwise we won't just
take away the Sicilian votes,

646
01:07:57,659 --> 01:08:00,704
but those from Reggio Calabria
and all Southern Italy too.

647
01:08:01,371 --> 01:08:05,500
You'll only have the North,
where they all vote Communist.

648
01:08:06,293 --> 01:08:07,419
Take our votes.

649
01:08:07,669 --> 01:08:10,797
And don't get any ideas about
special measures or laws

650
01:08:11,423 --> 01:08:14,259
or there'll be other
serious incidents.

651
01:08:15,427 --> 01:08:20,641
But I'd point out that after '87,
Andreotti stopped favouring anyone,

652
01:08:20,974 --> 01:08:24,227
in fact
he started fighting the Mafia.

653
01:08:26,563 --> 01:08:29,399
Lima died because he represented
that political faction

654
01:08:29,566 --> 01:08:31,610
which had made use
of Cosa Nostra's votes

655
01:08:31,860 --> 01:08:35,280
then reneged on its commitments
during the Big Mafia Trial.

656
01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:43,872
I can't be more precise
about when the meeting took place

657
01:08:44,164 --> 01:08:47,542
because it's hard to put a date
on my memories.

658
01:08:48,919 --> 01:08:52,798
You know that what you're telling us
is almost unbelievable?

659
01:08:53,048 --> 01:08:54,049
Yes.

660
01:08:54,341 --> 01:08:58,595
But it was also unbelievable
that Riina was captured

661
01:08:58,845 --> 01:09:01,598
after years on the run,
but it happened. Thanks to me.

662
01:09:30,293 --> 01:09:32,170
Come with me.

663
01:12:00,652 --> 01:12:02,571
Livia,
the Palermo Judges sent notification

664
01:12:02,779 --> 01:12:05,782
that I'm under investigation
for Mafia connections.

665
01:12:06,366 --> 01:12:09,703
They'll ask for authorization
to proceed against me.

666
01:12:11,413 --> 01:12:14,249
And this time they'll get it.

667
01:12:18,503 --> 01:12:20,589
I know who you are.

668
01:12:21,673 --> 01:12:25,218
You can't spend your life with a man
and not know who he is.

669
01:12:26,428 --> 01:12:29,848
I know who you are.
And we'll defend ourselves.

670
01:12:38,106 --> 01:12:41,652
<i>I don't know if Riina
and Andreotti met or not.</i>

671
01:12:41,902 --> 01:12:44,655
<i>But if they did,
I'm sure they kissed.</i>

672
01:12:45,822 --> 01:12:49,534
<i>Andreotti spoke about the Mafia,
well, he spoke about himself...</i>

673
01:12:50,952 --> 01:12:54,039
<i>Why must the good ones
always die, like the mafioso Liggio?</i>

674
01:12:54,915 --> 01:12:58,502
<i>When Andreotti dies, they'll take
the black box out of his hump</i>

675
01:12:58,710 --> 01:13:01,713
<i>and we'll finally know...</i>

676
01:13:02,130 --> 01:13:04,216
<i>... like a miraculous lucky dip</i>

677
01:13:04,508 --> 01:13:07,177
<i>It's wonderful to dip in
while suspended</i>

678
01:13:07,969 --> 01:13:11,640
<i>From a soft, pink cloud</i>

679
01:13:12,432 --> 01:13:15,185
<i>Me like a gentleman</i>

680
01:13:15,686 --> 01:13:18,355
<i>And you like...</i>

681
01:13:21,149 --> 01:13:23,360
<i>A bride</i>

682
01:13:26,738 --> 01:13:29,241
<i>While outside the window</i>

683
01:13:30,283 --> 01:13:33,996
<i>Only the dust blows</i>

684
01:13:34,955 --> 01:13:37,958
<i>A storm's brewing</i>

685
01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:48,135
<i>We two are from a distant planet</i>

686
01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:55,642
<i>But from here, the world seems
like a secret trap door</i>

687
01:13:57,602 --> 01:14:00,063
<i>Everyone wants everything</i>

688
01:14:01,106 --> 01:14:05,235
<i>Only to realise</i>

689
01:14:06,653 --> 01:14:08,697
<i>That it's all nothing</i>

690
01:14:12,117 --> 01:14:15,662
<i>We won't be like other people</i>

691
01:14:16,038 --> 01:14:19,916
<i>These will always be</i>

692
01:14:22,669 --> 01:14:27,674
<i>The best years of our lives</i>

693
01:14:30,093 --> 01:14:35,515
<i>The best years of our lives</i>

694
01:14:37,851 --> 01:14:43,649
<i>Hold me tight,
no night lasts forever...</i>

695
01:15:05,253 --> 01:15:08,507
Livia, your lively eyes dazzled me

696
01:15:08,757 --> 01:15:11,176
one afternoon in the Verano cemetery.

697
01:15:11,468 --> 01:15:14,221
I chose that odd place
to ask you to marry me.

698
01:15:14,554 --> 01:15:16,556
Remember? Yes, I know, you remember.

699
01:15:16,807 --> 01:15:19,810
Your lively, innocent,
enchanted eyes didn't know,

700
01:15:19,977 --> 01:15:21,895
don't know and will never know.

701
01:15:22,145 --> 01:15:25,732
They have no idea of the deeds
that power must commit

702
01:15:25,941 --> 01:15:28,610
to ensure the well-being
and development of the country.

703
01:15:28,860 --> 01:15:30,654
For too long that power was me.

704
01:15:31,113 --> 01:15:33,782
The monstrous,
unavowable contradiction:

705
01:15:33,991 --> 01:15:36,201
Perpetrating evil
to guarantee good.

706
01:15:36,743 --> 01:15:38,620
The monstrous contradiction
that made me

707
01:15:38,870 --> 01:15:40,998
a cynical man
that even you couldn't decipher.

708
01:15:41,248 --> 01:15:44,710
Your lively, innocent eyes
don't know the responsibility.

709
01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:47,004
The direct and indirect responsibility

710
01:15:47,254 --> 01:15:51,299
for all the carnage in Italy
from 1969 to 1984

711
01:15:52,134 --> 01:15:56,346
that left precisely
236 dead and 817 injured.

712
01:15:56,555 --> 01:15:59,558
To all the families of the victims
I say that I confess.

713
01:16:00,267 --> 01:16:03,979
I confess that it was my fault,
my most grievous fault.

714
01:16:04,396 --> 01:16:06,565
I'll say it, even if it's pointless.

715
01:16:06,815 --> 01:16:09,651
Havoc used to destabilize
the country,

716
01:16:09,901 --> 01:16:13,071
to provoke terror
to isolate the extremist parties

717
01:16:13,322 --> 01:16:16,616
and strengthen the centre ones
like the Christian Democrats...

718
01:16:16,867 --> 01:16:19,286
has been described as
"tension strategy".

719
01:16:19,578 --> 01:16:22,873
It would be more correct to say:
"Survival strategy".

720
01:16:23,206 --> 01:16:26,043
Roberto, Michele, Giorgio,
Carlo Alberto,

721
01:16:26,251 --> 01:16:27,794
Giovanni, Mino, dear Aldo,

722
01:16:27,961 --> 01:16:32,424
by vocation or necessity,
all confirmed lovers of the truth.

723
01:16:32,716 --> 01:16:37,346
All bombs ready to explode
that were defused into silence.

724
01:16:37,638 --> 01:16:40,766
All of them thinking truth
is the right thing,

725
01:16:40,974 --> 01:16:42,768
but actually
it's the end of the world.

726
01:16:42,976 --> 01:16:45,312
We can't allow
the end of the world

727
01:16:45,604 --> 01:16:46,980
in the name of what's right.

728
01:16:47,230 --> 01:16:49,775
We have a task, a divine task.

729
01:16:49,983 --> 01:16:51,777
We must love God greatly

730
01:16:51,985 --> 01:16:54,988
to understand how necessary
evil is for good.

731
01:16:55,197 --> 01:16:59,493
God knows it, I know it too.

732
01:17:45,122 --> 01:17:48,166
<i>One can be dull but honest,
dull but good,</i>

733
01:17:48,417 --> 01:17:50,335
<i>dull but full of fervour.</i>

734
01:17:50,585 --> 01:17:53,755
<i>Well, Honourable Mr Andreotti,
that is just what you lack.</i>

735
01:17:54,172 --> 01:17:56,633
<i>You lack human fervour.</i>

736
01:17:56,883 --> 01:18:00,554
<i>Along with the goodness, wisdom,
flexibility, transparency</i>

737
01:18:00,804 --> 01:18:02,514
<i>that undeniably make up</i>

738
01:18:02,764 --> 01:18:05,726
<i>the few real Christian Democrats
that exist in the world.</i>

739
01:18:06,268 --> 01:18:08,186
<i>You'll last a little longer,
or a little less,</i>

740
01:18:08,770 --> 01:18:11,440
<i>but you'll vanish without a trace.</i>

741
01:18:11,815 --> 01:18:13,608
<i>You'll be a mere news item,</i>

742
01:18:13,859 --> 01:18:16,611
<i>especially now that it suits you.</i>

743
01:18:40,719 --> 01:18:43,263
- How long did you walk?
- All night.

744
01:18:43,513 --> 01:18:48,435
- My legs are really hurting.
- Take more care: Stress, your age...

745
01:18:48,685 --> 01:18:52,397
- Tedax would make me happy.
- It was taken off the codex.

746
01:18:54,232 --> 01:18:58,362
Stop the nervous walking,
try doing some sports.

747
01:18:58,904 --> 01:19:01,990
All my sporty friends are dead.

748
01:19:02,491 --> 01:19:04,117
Chance.

749
01:19:04,326 --> 01:19:09,373
I don't believe in chance.
I believe in the will of God.

750
01:19:20,092 --> 01:19:22,636
- I'm sorry.
- No, don't say anything.

751
01:19:23,762 --> 01:19:28,141
It's for the best, I'll retire
to the country and pick chicory.

752
01:19:28,350 --> 01:19:32,270
- Chicory's good.
- Yes, it's politics that's bad.

753
01:19:33,355 --> 01:19:35,273
And to tell the truth,
I'm tired of it.

754
01:19:37,275 --> 01:19:39,319
It's for the best.

755
01:19:40,070 --> 01:19:43,824
Andreotti says he has too many
legal expenses

756
01:19:44,408 --> 01:19:47,160
and now that he's not
in the government...

757
01:19:47,411 --> 01:19:51,373
Poor Andreotti,
he was always on his own.

758
01:19:51,999 --> 01:19:53,792
Now even more so.

759
01:20:00,465 --> 01:20:03,218
- What's in there?
- Love letters.

760
01:20:04,428 --> 01:20:07,639
You wouldn't think it,
but women liked Andreotti.

761
01:20:09,099 --> 01:20:11,685
They wrote him lots of letters.

762
01:20:12,769 --> 01:20:14,938
But I never let him see them.

763
01:20:16,106 --> 01:20:17,858
I don't want trouble.

764
01:20:19,318 --> 01:20:22,362
Have you read them, Miss Enea?

765
01:20:23,989 --> 01:20:25,699
I know full well, Senator,

766
01:20:27,075 --> 01:20:30,620
that there are certain things
in life one mustn't see.

767
01:21:35,894 --> 01:21:40,399
PRIVATE ARCHIVES
OF GIULIO ANDREOTTI

768
01:22:21,815 --> 01:22:26,528
I can say with a sense
of responsibility that I'd prefer

769
01:22:26,862 --> 01:22:31,283
the Mafia to have eliminated me in
the same way they did Dalla Chiesa

770
01:22:31,533 --> 01:22:35,662
than to end up here, not knowing
how to defend myself against lies.

771
01:22:36,330 --> 01:22:39,791
I never met the Salvo cousins
in my life.

772
01:22:40,042 --> 01:22:42,169
I never associated with them

773
01:22:42,377 --> 01:22:45,505
and Lima never hinted at matters
pertaining to the Mafia.

774
01:22:45,756 --> 01:22:47,883
I do not know Bontate,
I do not know Badalamenti.

775
01:22:48,133 --> 01:22:50,469
I have never had secret meetings
with them.

776
01:22:50,719 --> 01:22:54,514
My movements are constantly
controlled by the police.

777
01:22:54,765 --> 01:22:58,352
I am under special surveillance,
I want there to be no doubt.

778
01:22:58,644 --> 01:23:02,272
As for the authorization
to proceed, I'm in your hands.

779
01:23:03,148 --> 01:23:04,775
Senator, if we use our vote

780
01:23:04,983 --> 01:23:07,986
to block further investigations
by the judiciary,

781
01:23:08,236 --> 01:23:11,990
what will be left
of this country's institutions?

782
01:23:12,949 --> 01:23:15,285
I understand the risk but...

783
01:23:16,203 --> 01:23:19,581
we cannot allow the judiciary
to govern.

784
01:23:19,873 --> 01:23:21,249
That's all for now.

785
01:23:21,500 --> 01:23:24,044
Would you like to add anything else,
Senator Andreotti?

786
01:23:24,336 --> 01:23:25,712
Go ahead.

787
01:23:25,962 --> 01:23:29,841
For many years I have been
Italy's international representative.

788
01:23:30,342 --> 01:23:33,261
A country led by someone
who reports to the Mafia

789
01:23:33,470 --> 01:23:36,807
does not have much credibility
in the world arena.

790
01:23:37,808 --> 01:23:41,937
I'm not the only one
who'll be discredited by this.

791
01:23:58,578 --> 01:24:00,288
You've lost more weight.

792
01:24:01,540 --> 01:24:03,542
And my hand shakes when I write.

793
01:24:03,792 --> 01:24:06,169
Because you don't sleep anymore.

794
01:24:07,170 --> 01:24:09,131
Yes, I don't sleep anymore.

795
01:24:09,381 --> 01:24:13,593
Your friends from the faction
don't call anymore.

796
01:24:13,802 --> 01:24:18,390
Pray for them, Livia.
They were destroyed too.

797
01:24:19,891 --> 01:24:21,435
By whom?

798
01:24:24,104 --> 01:24:26,064
By life

799
01:24:27,733 --> 01:24:29,609
and by accusations of bribery.

800
01:24:42,914 --> 01:24:44,708
Is it far?

801
01:25:23,747 --> 01:25:28,168
26 times
for 26 different accusals,

802
01:25:28,377 --> 01:25:31,296
I was brought before
the investigating committee.

803
01:25:31,546 --> 01:25:33,757
They made me talk for days on end.

804
01:25:34,007 --> 01:25:36,093
But each time,
the case was dismissed.

805
01:25:36,301 --> 01:25:39,429
Dismissed, dismissed, dismissed...

806
01:25:52,317 --> 01:25:56,530
We're here to talk about
presumed governmental responsibility

807
01:25:56,738 --> 01:25:58,865
in the Piazza Fontana massacre.

808
01:26:00,617 --> 01:26:01,618
I don't remember...

809
01:26:02,077 --> 01:26:05,539
I was only informed of the facts.
I couldn't know about that.

810
01:26:05,914 --> 01:26:07,541
You remember meeting Gelli?

811
01:26:07,874 --> 01:26:10,085
I don't remember, I don't remember,
I don't remember.

812
01:26:10,335 --> 01:26:14,089
De Gasperi said of you:
"He's so capable at everything,

813
01:26:15,340 --> 01:26:18,010
he could become capable
of anything."

814
01:26:18,260 --> 01:26:21,388
Leave De Gasperi out of this.

815
01:26:21,638 --> 01:26:24,182
I met Gelli briefly in Frosinone,

816
01:26:24,391 --> 01:26:26,310
he was a manager of
the Permaflex mattress company.

817
01:26:26,518 --> 01:26:30,147
Years later I saw him in Argentina
and thought:

818
01:26:30,355 --> 01:26:34,484
"He looks like the manager
of Permaflex."

819
01:26:35,736 --> 01:26:38,572
Carlo Bordoni,
Sindona's son-in-law,

820
01:26:38,822 --> 01:26:40,615
and Mrs Calvi accuse you

821
01:26:40,866 --> 01:26:45,203
of being the master of the P2 lodge,
not Gelli.

822
01:26:45,412 --> 01:26:49,916
I'd never have settled
for being master of just one lodge.

823
01:26:50,876 --> 01:26:55,339
Mrs Calvi made that accusation
years ago,

824
01:26:56,298 --> 01:26:59,217
I wrote to her expressing
my sympathy

825
01:26:59,426 --> 01:27:03,805
for her grief and imploring her
not to foster such scandals.

826
01:27:05,223 --> 01:27:08,060
The Christian Democrats
did all they could to save Moro.

827
01:27:08,310 --> 01:27:10,854
It was one of the most agonizing
things I've ever experienced.

828
01:27:11,730 --> 01:27:13,857
It's one thing
to fight political battles,

829
01:27:14,524 --> 01:27:19,363
but to say that we didn't do
everything possible to save Moro...

830
01:27:19,988 --> 01:27:22,532
That is truly...

831
01:27:24,034 --> 01:27:27,829
I've made many mistakes in my life
but I never had Mafia ties.

832
01:27:28,372 --> 01:27:30,207
Never! Ever!

833
01:27:30,999 --> 01:27:33,877
A man is here today

834
01:27:34,169 --> 01:27:39,508
who once had the courage to say
to Pope John XXIIl:

835
01:27:39,716 --> 01:27:43,929
"Excuse me, Your Holiness,
but you don't know the Vatican."

836
01:27:46,348 --> 01:27:47,557
He was right.

837
01:27:47,808 --> 01:27:52,020
Giulio Andreotti is here
with us today.

838
01:28:22,551 --> 01:28:24,970
The committee
has given the go-ahead.

839
01:28:25,220 --> 01:28:27,055
There will be a trial.

840
01:28:32,978 --> 01:28:36,356
REBIBBIA PRISON.
MAXIMUM SECURITY COURTROOM.

841
01:29:04,926 --> 01:29:05,927
Here he is!

842
01:29:06,887 --> 01:29:08,263
He's coming.

843
01:29:12,601 --> 01:29:15,145
Mr Riina,
have you ever met Giulio Andreotti?

844
01:29:15,520 --> 01:29:17,522
Have you ever kissed him?

845
01:29:18,523 --> 01:29:20,859
Have you ever met
Senator Andreotti?

846
01:29:21,777 --> 01:29:24,196
Today's a beautiful day.

847
01:29:25,989 --> 01:29:29,368
- Do you feel safe in prison?
- We're safe anywhere.

848
01:29:29,951 --> 01:29:32,287
- We who?
- What do you expect from the court?

849
01:29:32,496 --> 01:29:34,831
Only good things.

850
01:29:35,082 --> 01:29:37,084
- Do you know the turncoat Mutolo?
- No.

851
01:29:37,334 --> 01:29:41,046
- And Senator Andreotti?
- That's enough, back off.

852
01:29:52,599 --> 01:29:56,979
May I have some fizzy water,
please?

853
01:30:04,194 --> 01:30:08,615
Pecorelli said he had Moro's
complete memoirs

854
01:30:09,783 --> 01:30:13,245
and that they contained
revelations about Andreotti.

855
01:30:15,956 --> 01:30:19,668
Once, around two in the morning,

856
01:30:20,836 --> 01:30:24,881
General Dalla Chiesa
came to see me

857
01:30:25,299 --> 01:30:30,220
with a manuscript of about 50 pages
that Moro had written.

858
01:30:31,471 --> 01:30:36,810
He said he was going to give it
to Andreotti the next day.

859
01:30:39,688 --> 01:30:42,357
Yes, that's what he said.

860
01:31:00,917 --> 01:31:03,170
The news is false and slanderous.

861
01:31:03,420 --> 01:31:06,757
I never met Ignazio Salvo or Riina.

862
01:31:07,007 --> 01:31:10,552
If Di Maggio recognises Salvo's
house, it's his business.

863
01:31:10,761 --> 01:31:12,554
Come on Senator, tell the truth.

864
01:31:12,763 --> 01:31:15,766
Who induced you to accuse me?
We've never met.

865
01:31:16,016 --> 01:31:19,394
Sure we have. I'm talking about stuff
that I saw myself.

866
01:31:19,603 --> 01:31:21,563
They got Riina because of this.

867
01:31:22,189 --> 01:31:24,566
My conscience is at peace.
Do the same for yours.

868
01:31:24,816 --> 01:31:28,445
My client will not be subjected
to such tones.

869
01:31:30,572 --> 01:31:32,366
That will be all, Di Maggio.

870
01:31:36,953 --> 01:31:38,747
- Let's continue.
- No.

871
01:31:39,831 --> 01:31:43,627
First I'd like my statement
to be minuted.

872
01:31:43,877 --> 01:31:46,797
Because even though I recognise
that all men are equal,

873
01:31:47,005 --> 01:31:48,590
I feel deeply humiliated

874
01:31:48,840 --> 01:31:51,927
by a confrontation with a Mafioso,
even if he's a turncoat.

875
01:32:01,603 --> 01:32:03,397
How are you, Premier?

876
01:32:04,856 --> 01:32:07,693
So so... And you?

877
01:32:08,986 --> 01:32:11,905
Basically, I'm bored.

878
01:32:14,658 --> 01:32:17,119
Basically,

879
01:32:17,661 --> 01:32:19,371
so am I.

880
01:32:21,164 --> 01:32:23,125
Goodbye, Premier.

881
01:32:24,376 --> 01:32:26,420
Goodbye.

882
01:32:27,504 --> 01:32:28,714
Premier...

883
01:32:30,590 --> 01:32:32,217
don't slouch.

884
01:33:02,581 --> 01:33:05,917
Italian cuisine is delicious,
especially the Roman dishes.

885
01:33:06,168 --> 01:33:09,421
- Know how this sauce got its name?
- Yes, I know.

886
01:33:11,298 --> 01:33:16,803
Giulio, you're good at listening,
making wisecracks,

887
01:33:18,055 --> 01:33:24,019
you have perseverance, the ability
to concentrate and to hold out.

888
01:33:24,811 --> 01:33:26,647
But that's it.

889
01:33:28,273 --> 01:33:32,736
They depict you as cunning,
cultured, very intelligent.

890
01:33:34,029 --> 01:33:35,822
I say that's not the case.

891
01:33:36,156 --> 01:33:38,116
What's made you so critical suddenly?

892
01:33:40,035 --> 01:33:45,874
Nothing, just the need
to establish the truth occasionally.

893
01:33:47,334 --> 01:33:49,378
A need you've never had.

894
01:33:49,628 --> 01:33:52,631
You live longer without needs.

895
01:33:53,715 --> 01:33:55,676
Another wisecrack.

896
01:34:15,529 --> 01:34:19,116
<i>My blood will spill upon you.</i>

897
01:34:28,750 --> 01:34:32,504
People know you and I didn't get rich
from politics,

898
01:34:32,754 --> 01:34:36,633
but they think that power is what
interested us for 40 years.

899
01:34:36,842 --> 01:34:40,721
They think it makes us happy:
Maintaining our positions.

900
01:34:42,014 --> 01:34:44,224
They forget, or pretend to forget,

901
01:34:44,474 --> 01:34:47,728
that we actually saved their lives.

902
01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:51,898
They forget the Soviet threat
was real and close by.

903
01:34:55,193 --> 01:34:57,946
We let Aldo Moro die.

904
01:34:59,781 --> 01:35:02,326
And if I have grey hair
and liver spots on my skin,

905
01:35:02,576 --> 01:35:05,579
it's because while we let
Moro die,

906
01:35:06,580 --> 01:35:09,166
I was aware of it.

907
01:35:11,460 --> 01:35:13,420
What about you, Giulio?

908
01:35:18,175 --> 01:35:20,636
Do you remember
that socialist, Nenni?

909
01:35:21,094 --> 01:35:23,472
Enthusiastic, passionate.

910
01:35:24,640 --> 01:35:29,645
He said: "I'm going to put the
national railway back on track".

911
01:35:30,771 --> 01:35:35,067
I said: "In the madhouse, those
who don't claim to be Napoleon,

912
01:35:35,317 --> 01:35:39,446
claim they'll put the national
railway back on track."

913
01:35:40,906 --> 01:35:43,659
Nenni and I hated each other.

914
01:35:44,159 --> 01:35:46,995
But we esteemed and respected
each other,

915
01:35:47,245 --> 01:35:49,790
both of us.

916
01:35:51,625 --> 01:35:53,585
It's not like that today.

917
01:35:53,877 --> 01:35:57,255
Don't be disheartened by the
inquiry into Pecorelli's death.

918
01:35:57,923 --> 01:35:59,633
It's funny.

919
01:36:00,550 --> 01:36:04,429
I'm disheartened by little things,
not serious accusations.

920
01:36:05,931 --> 01:36:07,891
You know what discourages me?

921
01:36:08,809 --> 01:36:13,230
The news that I've been removed
as president of The Music Society.

922
01:36:15,315 --> 01:36:19,236
I'll lose my lectureship at
the Institute of Ciceronian Studies

923
01:36:19,569 --> 01:36:22,030
and perhaps even
the honorary degrees.

924
01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:25,033
I always thought my vanity
was a great defect.

925
01:36:25,283 --> 01:36:28,662
- But I'm comforted by talking to you.
- It's nothing to do with vanity.

926
01:36:29,329 --> 01:36:31,915
I'm from the provinces,
from a humble background.

927
01:36:32,416 --> 01:36:36,837
Cultural rather than political
legitimisation was more important.

928
01:36:37,754 --> 01:36:40,507
I always preferred to be seen
as a cultured man

929
01:36:40,966 --> 01:36:43,719
rather than a great statesman.

930
01:36:48,557 --> 01:36:52,686
Francesco, I must confess something
I've never dared admit to anyone.

931
01:36:53,562 --> 01:36:55,689
Not even to myself.

932
01:36:56,857 --> 01:37:00,110
- Tell me, Giulio.
- But it must remain between us.

933
01:37:00,819 --> 01:37:03,071
It wouldn't be the first time.

934
01:37:04,948 --> 01:37:07,951
I've always had a secret.

935
01:37:16,001 --> 01:37:18,211
A passion.

936
01:37:20,172 --> 01:37:24,384
A passion for Mary Gassman,
the famous actor's sister.

937
01:37:26,136 --> 01:37:28,680
She never knew
and she never reciprocated.

938
01:37:28,930 --> 01:37:32,184
I'm sure she wouldn't have,
even if she'd known.

939
01:37:33,060 --> 01:37:36,563
She was marvellous, Mary Gassman.

940
01:37:37,981 --> 01:37:41,568
She took my sleep away,
she took my breath away.

941
01:37:42,569 --> 01:37:45,989
All I did at school
was think about her.

942
01:37:47,115 --> 01:37:49,660
Then I got married...

943
01:37:50,327 --> 01:37:52,245
and I forgot her.

944
01:38:06,510 --> 01:38:08,512
I must talk to you.

945
01:38:09,137 --> 01:38:11,556
From today, we will apply
the philosophy of St. Bernard:

946
01:38:12,391 --> 01:38:16,520
See everything, tolerate a lot,
correct one thing at a time.

947
01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:21,316
Because if it's true that Christians
must turn the other cheek,

948
01:38:21,566 --> 01:38:24,653
it's also true that Jesus Christ,
very intelligently,

949
01:38:24,903 --> 01:38:26,822
only gave us two.

950
01:38:28,657 --> 01:38:31,118
The Big Mafia Trial
is about to begin.

951
01:38:31,994 --> 01:38:34,287
I will defend myself
with all my might.

952
01:38:35,914 --> 01:38:38,208
And I have plenty of it.

953
01:38:41,169 --> 01:38:44,006
To the activism of the Palermo
public prosecutor's office,

954
01:38:44,756 --> 01:38:46,883
we can add that of the Perugia
public prosecutor's office.

955
01:38:47,134 --> 01:38:49,720
Whilst gathering statements
from Buscetta

956
01:38:49,928 --> 01:38:53,765
about the existence of
compromising writings by Moro

957
01:38:54,016 --> 01:38:56,601
that General Dalla Chiesa
was supposed to have hidden

958
01:38:56,810 --> 01:39:00,772
and that the murdered journalist,
Mino Pecorelli, was about to publish,

959
01:39:01,023 --> 01:39:04,151
another request has been made
for my committal to trial.

960
01:39:04,401 --> 01:39:06,945
This new accusation claims

961
01:39:07,195 --> 01:39:10,198
that I was the mandator
in Mino Pecorelli's killing.

962
01:39:10,449 --> 01:39:15,245
What can I say that my life
has not already made clear?

963
01:39:15,495 --> 01:39:17,331
Their theorem worries me.

964
01:39:17,581 --> 01:39:20,417
The prosecutors assert
that a Mafioso cannot lie.

965
01:39:20,667 --> 01:39:22,919
So this brotherhood's members
are marked by the fact

966
01:39:23,170 --> 01:39:27,007
that they can kill up to
20 people in Mannoia's case,

967
01:39:27,257 --> 01:39:30,093
or, if they show restraint,
10 people in Di Maggio's case.

968
01:39:30,344 --> 01:39:33,680
However, they can never
be suspected of lying.

969
01:39:34,389 --> 01:39:37,142
The fact that I took a very hard
line of action with the Mafia

970
01:39:37,351 --> 01:39:39,936
in regards to government legislation,
counts for nothing.

971
01:39:40,187 --> 01:39:43,315
They said I pretended to be tough
on the Mafia.

972
01:39:43,565 --> 01:39:47,402
At this point, I'm starting to think
they're in league.

973
01:39:48,028 --> 01:39:51,031
What's your reaction
to Evangelisti's statement?

974
01:39:51,948 --> 01:39:55,243
I never had a secret meeting
with Dalla Chiesa.

975
01:39:55,452 --> 01:39:58,538
If Franco claimed that,
he must have dreamed it.

976
01:39:58,789 --> 01:40:01,792
Is there a conspiracy against you?

977
01:40:03,043 --> 01:40:06,129
Look, since all the turncoats
are making false statements,

978
01:40:06,338 --> 01:40:08,924
I must assume that they have
an unknown prompter,

979
01:40:09,174 --> 01:40:12,886
since a concurrence of this type
would be most difficult.

980
01:40:13,136 --> 01:40:16,473
Yes, because their statements
all concur,

981
01:40:16,723 --> 01:40:19,935
yet we know there's been
no contact between them.

982
01:40:20,185 --> 01:40:22,104
They're held by different bodies.

983
01:40:22,354 --> 01:40:26,483
Doesn't the theory of a plot
against you seem implausible?

984
01:40:26,733 --> 01:40:29,069
Not at all.

985
01:40:30,362 --> 01:40:32,364
Thank you everyone.

986
01:41:04,396 --> 01:41:06,565
Of course...

987
01:41:08,900 --> 01:41:10,444
all right.

988
01:41:13,655 --> 01:41:15,615
We can go.

989
01:41:16,908 --> 01:41:18,785
Andreotti's trial begins.

990
01:41:18,994 --> 01:41:22,497
The first hearing, in what has been
called the "trial of the century",

991
01:41:22,748 --> 01:41:24,916
will start at 10, tomorrow morning.

992
01:41:26,251 --> 01:41:30,172
As time goes by, I'm more convinced
Andreotti is an extraterrestrial.

993
01:41:30,839 --> 01:41:33,508
We haven't understood
that he belongs to a tradition

994
01:41:33,759 --> 01:41:35,886
that has made the history
of the Church immortal.

995
01:41:36,094 --> 01:41:38,639
He carries 2,000 years
of history inside him.

996
01:41:38,889 --> 01:41:41,642
There's Christ's sacrifice,
Pope Joan,

997
01:41:42,017 --> 01:41:44,936
the Inquisition, the Borgias
and diplomacy.

998
01:41:49,316 --> 01:41:51,777
I'm not surprised
that Andreotti

999
01:41:52,027 --> 01:41:56,239
has been marked as mandator
in the Pecorelli murder.

1000
01:41:57,115 --> 01:42:01,787
Probably, the issue of his magazine
with the Senator's photo on the cover

1001
01:42:01,995 --> 01:42:03,955
is at the root of his death.

1002
01:42:05,165 --> 01:42:08,543
If Andreotti had wanted to kill
everyone he found troublesome,

1003
01:42:09,670 --> 01:42:12,589
he'd have had to take on enemies
much greater than Pecorelli.

1004
01:42:12,839 --> 01:42:15,842
Maybe a whole cemetery
wouldn't have been big enough.

1005
01:42:39,950 --> 01:42:42,786
Talleyrand comes to mind
when you think of Andreotti.

1006
01:42:43,036 --> 01:42:44,871
T-A-L-L-

1007
01:42:45,080 --> 01:42:48,041
E-Y-R-A-N-D-
full stop.

1008
01:42:48,292 --> 01:42:53,130
They both had the same objective,
colon, power, full stop.

1009
01:42:53,463 --> 01:42:56,133
But the complexity of Andreotti's
character comma...

1010
01:42:56,341 --> 01:43:00,887
makes up part, comma, if one can say,
comma, of his greatness full stop.

1011
01:43:03,682 --> 01:43:06,018
The greatness of the enigma
full stop.

1012
01:43:58,320 --> 01:44:00,364
Hello Livia...

1013
01:44:00,864 --> 01:44:02,658
...yes, I got some sleep.

1014
01:44:03,909 --> 01:44:05,702
I love you too.

1015
01:45:26,074 --> 01:45:28,118
The Court is in session.

1016
01:45:35,292 --> 01:45:39,338
Be seated. We'll begin with
the representatives.

1017
01:45:43,300 --> 01:45:46,219
Is the defendant Giulio Andreotti
present?

1018
01:45:47,137 --> 01:45:49,640
Please sit down.

1019
01:45:54,853 --> 01:45:58,607
Defence attorneys:
Odoardo Ascari and Franco Coppi.

1020
01:45:58,857 --> 01:46:01,735
Have substitutes been designated?

1021
01:46:19,586 --> 01:46:23,090
<i>Andreotti remained indifferent,
leaden, distant,</i>

1022
01:46:23,632 --> 01:46:26,301
<i>cocooned in his dark dream
of glory.</i>

1023
01:46:26,927 --> 01:46:29,471
<i>He'd had to further
his reactionary plan,</i>

1024
01:46:29,721 --> 01:46:32,933
<i>not disappoint the Communists,
the Germans</i>

1025
01:46:33,183 --> 01:46:35,394
<i>and who knows who else.</i>

1026
01:46:36,228 --> 01:46:39,064
<i>What was the meaning,
in the face of all this,</i>

1027
01:46:39,272 --> 01:46:42,109
<i>of the inconsolable grief
of an old spouse,</i>

1028
01:46:42,317 --> 01:46:44,653
<i>the destruction of a family?</i>

1029
01:46:45,362 --> 01:46:48,198
<i>What did all this mean
for Andreotti,</i>

1030
01:46:48,365 --> 01:46:52,285
<i>once he'd achieved the power
to do evil</i>

1031
01:46:52,577 --> 01:46:56,123
<i>just as he'd always done
evil in his life?</i>

1032
01:46:56,999 --> 01:47:02,087
<i>All this meant nothing.</i>

1033
01:47:19,396 --> 01:47:21,398
THE BIG MAFIA TRIAL

1034
01:47:21,648 --> 01:47:24,651
23 OCTOBER 1999:
The Tribunal acquits Giulio Andreotti

1035
01:47:24,901 --> 01:47:29,364
of Mafia association, because
there are no incriminating facts.

1036
01:47:29,614 --> 01:47:33,076
2 MAY 2003: Palermo Appeals Court
cannot proceed against Andreotti

1037
01:47:33,327 --> 01:47:35,787
for the crime
of Mafia association

1038
01:47:36,038 --> 01:47:40,334
committed up until Spring 1980
because it is already statute-barred.

1039
01:47:40,542 --> 01:47:43,378
The rest of the sentence
is confirmed.

1040
01:47:43,670 --> 01:47:47,799
15 OCTOBER 2004: The Cassation Court
confirms the Appeal Court sentence.

1041
01:47:48,383 --> 01:47:50,802
PECORELLI TRIAL

1042
01:47:51,053 --> 01:47:54,348
30 APRIL 1999: Public Prosecutors
request life imprisonment for

1043
01:47:54,598 --> 01:47:58,977
Andreotti, Vitalone, Badalamenti
and Calo as mandators

1044
01:47:59,269 --> 01:48:02,105
24 SEPTEMBER 1999: The Assizes
Court acquits all defendants.

1045
01:48:02,356 --> 01:48:05,525
16 NOVEMBER 2002: The Appeals Court
sentences Andreotti and Badalamenti

1046
01:48:05,776 --> 01:48:08,153
to 24 years imprisonment.

1047
01:48:08,403 --> 01:48:12,324
30 OCTOBER 2003: The Cassation Court
overrules the sentence.

1048
01:48:12,574 --> 01:48:16,119
Andreotti and Badalamenti
acquitted of Pecorelli murder.
