Prova.

Mmm.
Eh?

C'e bisogno di pui sale? What?

More salt?
No.

Not too fine, eh.

Sometimes you cut it too fine,
then all you taste is the garlic.

Okay.

Let's go, five minutes, eh.
Io sono pronto.

Cristiano, let's go.
Hurry up. Chop-chop.

We open in five minutes.
Oh, my God.

Mucho trabajo
y poco dinero.

Remind me tomorrow to call the plumber
to come back so I can kill him.

Are we ready? I'm
ready half an hour.

Wait, the risotto.

Yes, go.

Oh, thank God.
Okay, here we go.

Oh, I'm just so hungry.

Signore.

Oh, that looks good.
You got leaves with yours.

Here we go.

Okay.

Monsieur, is this
what I ordered?

Yes, that is
the risotto.

Is a special recipe that my brother and I
bring from Italy. It's delicious, I promise.

It took so long, I thought you went
all the way back to Italy to get it.

Yes, I know, but it's worth it.
I-I-I-I promise.

You would like, uh, fresh pepper or cheese?
No, I don't need cheese.

Cheese, yeah. Oh yeah,
he likes cheese.

Excuse me, didn't you say that this
was gonna be rice with seafood?

Uh, yes.

It is, uh, Italian
arborio rice, the best.

And then, uh, with shrimp
and scallop and...

I just don't see anything that
looks like a shrimp or a scallop.

I just, well... I mean,
it's not what I expected.

But I get a side order
of spaghetti with this, right?

- Why? Well, no.
- I thought all main courses come with spaghetti.

Well, some, yes,
but you see,

risotto is rice,
so it is a starch,

- and it doesn't go really with pasta.
- But I don't...

Honey, order the side
of spaghetti, that's all.

I'll eat your meatballs.
He'll have the meatballs.

Well, uh, the spaghetti
comes without meatballs.

There are no meatballs
with the spaghetti?

No, sometimes spaghetti
likes to be alone.

All right, then, I guess that we'll
also have a side order of meatballs.

Side order of meatballs. This is fine.
Let's just eat.

All right, no meatballs. Then we'll
just have a side order of spaghetti.

Primo, please,
just, come on.

I want to know for who.

Just make the side order
of spaghetti, please.

Secondo, I want to know
for who it is for.

For the lady with the risotto.

What? Why?

She like starch. I don't know.
Come on! Bitch.

I'll make it myself.
Nah!

Who are these people
in America?

I need to talk
to her.

Oh, please, Primo,
what are you going to do?

Tell the customer what she can eat, huh?
That is what she want.

This is what the customer
asked for. Make it.

Make the pasta. Make it. Make it.
Make the pasta.

- Come on, let's go!
- How can she want? They both are starch.

Maybe I should make mashed
potato for another side.

Primo, don't, okay, because they are the
first customers to come in two hours.

The fucking pipes are... No, she's a
criminal. I want to talk to her.

You want to talk to her?
Okay, that's great.

You want to talk to her?
Okay, good, fine.

I'm sick of this every fucking night.
You want to talk to her?

Okay, here we go.

Go talk to her.

No, she's a philistine.

I'm not gonna talk to her.
She no understand anyway.

It will be just a moment. Thank God,
we didn't come on a night it was full.

**

Good morning. Please, sit down.

Thank you very much.
Cigarette?

Oh, yes, thank you.

Thank you. So it is completely
different here than when I was before.

Well, it's
a beautiful renovation.

Because we went through that with our
restaurant when we first started.

- It's a lot of work. It's a lot of money.
- Pain in the neck, you know?

But I think it come out good,
you know, 'cause it's simple.

It's a very simple place
for the family to come.

Very nice, casual.

- You like Italian food, right?
- Yes, I do, very much.

I'm gonna have to change the direction
of this conversation right now.

Ah, yes, I understand.
Okay.

Is there someone you can borrow
from back in, uh, back home?

No, because we did that
already to come here.

You have any
saleable assets?

Something to sell, like a
car, for money, to pay us.

Oh, oh, yes, I understand.
I wasn't sure you...

No, no, no, no,
I speak English.

Ah, no, I don't.
My car, no.

I have a car, but it's
no Cadillac, you know.

I need my car, uh, for the
business, so, no. I see.

I don't know, uh.

Your payments over the past two
years have hardly been consistent.

Yes, I know.

I'm afraid we can't
give you any more time.

What do you mean? We can't
give you any more time.

Okay, Mr. Pierce, let me just
explain something to you, okay?

I'll explain my situation to you,
which is unusual, all right?

I don't want
to bother you, but, uh...

Listen, my brother is, uh...

It's a difficult situation
because what we try to do...

Look, look, listen, is very
hard, we work very hard.

I hate to see businesses fail, okay?
We are not lazy.

I hate to see businesses fail, okay?
Yes, me too.

But we're a bank. We can't help
people who can't help themselves.

If we don't receive your payment by the
end of the month, we will foreclose.

Thank you very much.
Sure.

I wish I could
pay you with money.

Oh, money? Please,
what would I do with money?

Thank you.
I have to go now.

Thank you
for the painting.

Well, this is
the biggest one.

Good night.
Good night.

Good night, Stash.
Good night, Secondo.

See what he give us, huh?

Look, it's landscape.

See?
Don't you love it?

Great. Put it with
the rest of them.

Primo, let me
ask you something.

What do you think if we
take risotto off the menu?

Primo?

What do you think
about that, huh?

Take risotto
off the menu.

I'm sorry.
What did you say?

Forget it.

No, no, I don't hear what-what you say.
Tell me what you say.

Well, it's just that...

risotto costs us a lot.

And it take you
a long time to make.

I mean, you have to work
so hard to make, you know?

And then, we have
to charge more, so...

I think
take it away.

Sure. Good.

Really?
Yeah, that's good.

Oh, yeah.
Okay.

All right.

Maybe, instead,
we could put...

Yes, tell me,
tell me.

Well,
I was thinking...

Hmm, what, what
do they call it?

You know, it's...
Come se dice?

Manicotti?
No.

Is a hot dog?
Hot dog. Hot dog!

Yeah, hot dogs.

Maybe people
would like that.

Those.

Fine.

If you give people time,
they learn.

Well, I don't have time
for them to learn.

This is a restaurant,
not a fucking school.

**

It's busy again
tonight.

The man should be in prison
for the food he serves.

People love it.

Good night.
Where you go?

To see Phyllis.

Ah, say hi
for me, eh?

Okay.

You go, uh, out?

Yes.
Where?

Out, to a movie.
Ah.

You want to come?

Why? No, I go
see Alberto.

Okay. What is the movie?

You want to come? Come on, want to come?
No, I do not.

Come on, call up the flower lady.
What's her name?

Ann, Ann, Ann?
Who?

Double date?
Who?

Why would I
call her?

I don't know. Alberto said
that you and she were...

What?
You know.

He said that?
Yeah.

It's no secret. Take you longer each
time when you go to buy the flowers.

Well, I do not grab
just any flower.

I like to pick
the right one.

But don't take too long. Someone
else might pick the one you want.

Good night.

Why would Secondo say you said something
and you say you said nothing?

Salute.

No, no-no, no.
W-W-What's the matter?

Phyllis, no, I can't.
You can't. Why?

I can't.

No, I can't. Honey, I can't.
Why? Why?

No, I can't.
I don't want to.

I just get sad.
Sad?

- Yes.
- Honey, "sad" is the wrong word.

Well, no, I don't mean sad,
but I mean, you know,

it just, it gets me
all jazzed up, you know?

And then I want to go to my
place, but I can't go there.

Well, you know,
I have to go crazy.

We don't have to...

I mean, you know,
we've done other things.

I know, I know,
I know.

Well, so what's
the problem?

I know. I just
want it to be...

I can't,
I can't. No.

I just want it to be,
for you and me to be,

okay, something,
all right?

I mean, I want for it to
be the right time. Okay?

And I mean, because this is
very important thing.

Okay? I know it. We're not...

It's not for me a casual
thing, you know, like,

oh, it's okay,
like that.

It's not like that. I know it's
not like that for you either.

I want it to be, you know,
when the time is right.

I mean, you know, because now,
everything is just too much,

and I just can't...

I just...
I want it to...

I want us to be
when I am more set.

Set?
Yes.

Oh, so it's
about finances.

Well...
It's about money.

No, Phyllis, it's not
about money, okay?

And don't make it sound like that.
It's not like that.

'Cause I am here working, trying
to do something. It's very hard.

And then you know, my
brother's driving me crazy.

Okay, I'm just
saying that, uh,

it's about money,
yes, okay.

I'm sorry you don't
understand money.

Oh, yeah, I don't understand money.
I work in a bank.

What did you say?

I understand money.
Ah, good.

Honey, I just...

All I want is for the time
to be right, okay? I know.

And I want it
to be right for you.

And the time,
it is not right for you.

Okay?

You understand what I mean?

You know, I don't think
you know what you want.

I really don't.

What do you mean?

What?

What do you want? You know
exactly what you want?

What do you want, huh?
What do you want me to do?

Want me to ask you to marry you right now?
Oh, is that a proposal?

- Uh, no, well, no.
- Do you want to marry me?

Do I want to marry you?
Yeah.

Yes, probably,
someday, yes.

In the future I want to marry
you, but not right now.

Thank you very much, but not right now.
I'm sorry.

Okay.

What?
Nothing.

Just forget it.

I don't know.

I'm so tired.

Yeah, it's very late.

**

Hey, how are you?
Is he here?

Yeah, I don't know,
in the back.

Hey, Joe.

Hey, Tony.
Sit down, please.

Hello, how are you?

Ciao, how are you?
Hi, fine, and you?

Good, good. You busy tonight, huh?
Oh, Friday night.

Hey, number two,
you're here early, huh?

How are you?
What's your poison?

A scotch and soda, please.
You busy tonight, huh?

Hey, Friday night,
you know.

Ladies and gentlemen,
I present to you!

Bravo-bravo-bravo.

Hey-hey-hey!

Unbelievable, huh?

Some guy, huh? Oh, boy.
Oh, boy. Cheers.

Thank you very much.

Hey-hey-hey,
you fucking guy.

Did you see me over there?
I did see you.

You know, I should be
in the circus, huh?

Yes.
Yeah?

Hey, you got everything you need?
Yes-yes-yes.

Everything? Charlie, you taking
care of my friend. Okay?

I love this guy.
I dropped my cigarette.

I love this guy,
I really do.

You're like my brother.
You are like my brother.

But you are the best. You
are the best guy, you know?

He is the best guy
and so fucking handsome.

Look at this suit.
Did I see this before?

Cesare, table number six.

You give them a bottle of whatever
they are having, on the house.

And don't open it.
I'll be there in one minute.

So, fucking guy, you close early.
Yes.

What happened?
You run out of food?

I make a joke.

Listen, Pascal, I want to
ask you, can I talk to you?

Of course. Free.
Okay.

But I am not just me. I am me
and my brother. You know, so...

So you guys are not even thinking
about coming to work for me.

With me.
I should say with me.

No-no-no-no, believe me,
I think about it, but...

Ah, I see you thinking.
You know,

and I am flattered,

but my brother has ideas, you know.
Ideas is ideas.

I have to convince him to come
here, to have our own place.

Oh, yeah? Because I know
in Italy, you work hard...

and there is nothing.

But here, you work hard,
and...

Hey.
Right? I know.

Hey, that is why
we all come here, huh?

It's the land of fucking
opportunity, right?

But you can't come here
and expect the figs...

the first year you plant
the goddamned tree.

No matter who you are.
You know what I'm saying?

Believe me, I know.
I know.

That's exactly what my brother said.
It's funny.

Yeah, but, Seco,

may I say something that I
learned, without being too big?

A guy goes out to eat
in the evening...

after a long day in the
office, whatever. Go ahead.

He don't want
on his plate...

something that he has to look and
think, "What the fuck is this"?

What he want is steak.
This is a steak.

I like steak,
you know?

Mmm, I'm happy!

Do you see what I mean?
But don't get me wrong.

I think that your brother
is good, goddamned chef.

Maybe the best
I ever see.

He is the best.
Yes, but,

this is what I have
to say to you.

Give to people
what they want.

Then later, you can give
them what you want, eh?

Pascal, believe me, I know, I know.
Hey, fucking guy.

You and your brother,
you come to work with me.

I know, but...

Okay.

Okay, but, uh, the kind of money you
ask me for, I can't lend to you.

That's okay.
I understand.

And I'm sorry...

You know,
everything has just...

become...

too much.

Hey-hey-hey,
fucking guy,

what is this
"too much," eh?

Hey, it is
never too much!

It's only not enough!

Bite your teeth
into the ass of life...

and drag it to you!

Hey!

Well, that is why I come
here to you, you know?

Oh, no-no-no-no,
you don't need money.

What I speak about has
nothing to do with money.

Who's that?

Humphrey Bogart. Humphrey Bogart.
That's right.

Listen, I tell you
a story.

Two years ago,
he was in town.

I sent the champagno, the
best, to him, at his hotel.

Compliments of Pascal.

That's it, on my card,
like that.

Compliments of Pascal.
By hand, I write, huh?

Two days later, I get that
picture of him, signed to me.

See?
Ah.

Now look at that
picture there. Go on.

Six months later,

who do you see, huh?

Having a dinner in this restaurant?
Humphrey Bogart.

Humphrey Bogart. You see?

Oh.
Hey.

Hey, see that?

That's me with Louis Prima.
And you know him, right?

Oh, sure.

* Buona sera, Buona sera
signorina *

He's a big jazz guy. I love Louis Prima.
Friend of mine.

Huh? He's in town next week.

You cook for him, eh,
for his band...

on a night off.

Then who knows?
The word get around.

La vita e dulce per tutti.
I set it up for you.

Really... Louis Prima? He's a
friend of mine, Louis Prima.

Great. That sounds,
yes, great.

I just have to talk to my
brother, but it should be...

But no, it's good. I'm sure I can do.
No problem. I do.

I make a call. I set him up, okay?
Okay.

- You know Gabriella?
- Oh, yes, hello.

Hi.

Pascal, grazie.
Baby, listen.

I am for you like one of those
things with the lights.

What?

With the ships in the
storm with the lights.

What do you call it? I don't know.
The lighthouse.

The lighthouse!
That's what I am for you.

If it rain, you look for me. I
show you the way home. Okay.

Suppose he doesn't
want to go home?

What do you mean? He's in the fucking rain.
Some people like the rain.

Gabriella, go check
the menus, please.

Pascal, let me ask you something.
Hey.

Buona sera.

If my brother know
that you, uh... Please.

That cradle will not
be rocked by me.

I tell nothing. This is all yours.
Okay, okay.

Mille grazie. Hey, you kidding?
I love secrets.

Secrets make
the friendship stronger.

Buona notte.
Grazie.

Ciao, Leo, ciao.

* Buona sera, signorina
Buona sera *

That son of a bitch fish man,
you see how he changes song?

Huh, Louis Prima, at our place tonight.
Boom, the best fish!

What's the matter with you?
Are you sick?

People should come
just for the food.

I know. Primo, I need
your help here, okay?

Louis Prima is coming. He's not
just some guy. He's famous!

Famous? Is he good?
Eh, he's great.

People should come just for the food.
I know that.

They should come just for the food.
I know that. I know.

But they don't.

Ooh, Cadillac.

The newest.
It's beautiful, huh?

Cadillac.
Big.

Primo, tell her to make them,
uh, something for tonight, okay.

Primo, ask her if she
want to come tonight.

You can't tell me this.
I had five orders to deliver.

That's all I have to say to you.
Good-bye.

Trouble today, huh?
I won't even... no.

Listen, I don't have your irises.
The delivery didn't come.

Somebody not do their job. Yes, somebody
didn't think it was very important.

That is even more worse. Well, come
on, we'll find something else.

I think for tonight,

my brother, uh,
he want something...

Special.
Yes, yes.

A big jazz guy coming.

Louis Prima. Ooh, I
love Louis Prima.

You know him?
Yes.

He's good? He's very good.
Boisterous.

Oh, um?
Lots of energy.

Ah, well, that's good. Yeah.

Uh, well, uh,

something,
you know, special...

Uh...
These are nice.

Let's see here.

Um, listen,
I'll tell you what.

I could probably get
something special together,

and I could bring it over
to you this afternoon.

Okay, okay.

How much does that leave?
Sixty-two dollars and 47 cents.

Thank you, sir.
Thank you.

Tonight, you will
close early, ah?

I guess. Why?

Because I thought, ah, the no delivery.
Oh, yeah, I guess I'll have to.

But it doesn't matter.
I just started a new book.

So, I'll probably go home
and get in the tub.

Ah, good.

Okay, well, thank you.
Oh, thank you.

And good luck tonight.
Yes and thanks.

What is the story?

I'm sorry?
In the book?

The story, in the book.

Oh, the pioneers.
Oh, the wild west.

- Buffalo Bill.
- Sort of.

Families on the trail.

Oh, yeah,
tough times.

Well, times are
always tough for somebody.

Tough.

Well, I'm taking
a long time here, so,

thanks, and, uh,

I hope you like
the book.

And the pioneers
are, uh, you know,

okay.

Okay.

Hey, boys,

Beautiful, huh?

Hey, boys,

Hey, Michelangelo,
come sta?

You invite him?
I invite everybody.

**

Who make this go on?

Louis Prima.
Oh, oh, my God.

What?

Oh, Jesus, Phyllis.

I'm sorry. That's okay.
Did I burn you?

No. I'm sorry.
No, that's okay.

So, how are you?

I'm fine.
How are you?

Ah, I'm fine, you know.
I'm fine.

I didn't call you.

I know. I didn't call you either.
That's true.

You know, I thought tonight you
could use some help, right?

Yes.
So, I'm here.

I'm glad you are here.

Seco, delivery's here! Okay, good.
Let me go do this.

Okay.

They're small, huh?

They're small,
but they're fine.

Mostly black.
They're fine.

Are they fresh?
Fresh today.

Come on,
it looks dead.

I'm sorry, Primo, that's it.
That's all I got.

Well, we need them, so...

It's your party.

Primo, come here.
Can I talk to you?

I want to talk to my
brother one second, okay?

Okay, is that...

- Okay, sorry, Charlie.
- What, you choose a new Pope?

- No, we have a party. You want to come?
- Yeah, are you cookin'?

Yes, I am. Come.

Yes, Phyllis, can I ask you to get me
the white tub from over there, please?

And Cristiano, my friend,
the other one. No!

Now, first,
we must clean them.

Primo, are you crazy?
There is not time.

And Seco, you start the rabbit.
What's timpano?

Primo, I have to be serious here.
What is timpano?

I mean... Seco, you tell
me this is a big night.

No, what are we
making here, exactly?

Call the plumber, please.
I called him already.

Phyllis, timpano is a pasta, see?
Oh, my God, no.

- With a special crust.
- No.

And is shaped like a drum.
No, no, no, no.

Like a timpani drum. What are you doing?
Do something.

And the inside,

all of the most important
things in the world.

**

Seco, the phone
is for you.

Seco?

Hello? Yes.

No, no, I can't
right now. No.

Yeah, okay, well, I will be there.
Yes, good-bye.

I have to go.

Primo, I have to go. I have to
talk to a guy about the booze.

I'll be back in about one hour, okay?
Okay, ciao.

Yeah, Ciao.
What should I do?

Ah, I don't know. Primo will tell you.
Don't worry.

Bye.
Bye.

**

Can you call
the booze guy, please?

Not everybody have everything given
to them with a silver lining.

We could very easy serve the
shit at your old man's place.

Very easy.

Mike, hi.
I'm Gabriella.

Can I ask you
a favor?

I have a friend. Well, I
don't know what he needs.

But he'll come by later.
No, I'm coming now!

Now! Hey, Mike, you're
the best of them all.

You know that?

Whenever your wife leaves you,
you call me, okay?

Hey, love ya.
Bye, Mike.

Who's that?
Mike.

Go. Go, get your cheap booze.

He's not here. You gotta
come back when he's here.

Come back in a half hour.
Then he'll be here.

I'm tired today.
I'm so tired.

You tired today?

There you go.
Oh, Phyllis, thank you.

Take a break. You must be tired.
No, I'm okay.

You in the market?

Are you in the market?

Um, what...

Good-looking fellow like you should
have a good-looking car like this.

Well, we all should have
a lot we don't have.

I detect an accent.

Where you from?
I'm Italian.

Hmm. Just visiting
or move here for good?

I will never go back.
There's a history, huh?

In Italy, there is nothing
but history. Funny.

Beautiful place though, Italy.
Yes, it is.

You been? No, never.
Here, get in.

Oh, well, I don't know.
Just go ahead.

Oh, boy, wow.
Beautiful, huh?

Yes, this is, boy, beautiful.
Real leather trim,

Uh-huh, yes.

This is the new one. This is this

Next year's.
Wow. Boy.

This year, you buy
next year's car...

Yeah, you got kids? I got two kids.
Ah, no.

They see their friend with a

I got enough tension in
my house, you know? Sure.

I'm Bob. What's your name?

Yes.

Who's the first, your pop?
No, my brother.

Hmm, scoot over,

Okay. I have a younger brother.
I hate his guts.

Yeah, why?
He's cheap.

Well, but,

He's a person. I hate cheap people.
Me too.

Yeah, I could tell.

You have good taste,
Secondo.

Not that taste and money
are related, but, you know,

it's really what you do
with whatever you have.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Power
steering, power brakes.

Power, power.

Your brother like cars,
Secondo?

No, my brother,
he does not even drive.

Well, some people
prefer to walk.

I tell you,
my brother make one ride...

from Italy to America.

And I guess that's enough
rides for him, you know?

Let's take a test-drive.
No-no-no, I have to go.

Come on,
no commitment.

**

**

**

So come, okay?

You bring a car, I park it out front
and then... see what happens.

I love Louis Prima.

**

**

Cristiano, go get
the booze in the car.

"Please, Cristiano. It would be
very nice." Please, please, please.

Where have you been?
What took you so long?

You don't even want to know
where I've been. I want you.

No, no, no.
Embrace me.

I will... embrace you!

No, you don't want to know. I mean, this cheap
booze guy. It's the last time I use him.

He drove me crazy, this guy,
but I'm sorry, all right?

Buongiorno, tutti quan...
Mi scusi.

Amore. I love love.
Purita. Virtuosa.

Immacolata.
Mr. Pascal.

I have to go shopping, honey.
Oh, okay.

You need me for anything?
He need you for everything.

You're crazy.
Bye.

Good-bye. You come back.
American girls. Ay-yi!

I know.
You fucking guy!

How is it going? Oh, it's going great.
You want something?

Looks good.
Fuck, you guys are good.

Come on,
I'll buy you a drink.

Hey, so... shaping up, shaping up.
Yes, huh?

Anything you need, anything,
you let me know. Yes.

I bought a boat. I bought a boat.
You bought a boat?

* Sail away
into the sunset *

So, here is to tonight, yes?
To tonight.

Ay, maestro! That fucking
sauce, unbelievable!

What can I say? Someone get you a
compliment, you say "thank you."

Grazie.
Prego.

Pascal bought a boat. That
mean you're gonna sail away?

Maybe... if the sky
is red in the morn...

No, the sun is red...
No, the sky is...

- What is the rhyme?
- Yeah, when is the good one?

Red sky at morning mean
it will rain outside.

What about rain inside?

Huh?

Huh? Nothing.
No, what you mean?

You say "rain outside,"

and I think for you to use
the word "outside" is funny.

Why? Because it
can't rain inside.

I no say "inside." I say
"outside." I know. No. I know.

So where is the problem?
I don't get it.

Well, you don't have to say "outside,"
because it can't rain inside.

What the fuck? I know
it can't rain ins...

Forget it, forget it! What the
fuck is he talking about?

I'm confused.
No, I make fun.

You make fun of your brother.
No, I make like a joke.

I don't hear the joke.
Well, it's not...

I make a toast. No for me.
It's too early.

It's never too late.

So this is to tonight,
the big night...

Ahh.
when I bring together...

my old friend Louis Prima
with my two new friends.

You guys are
simply the best.

Salute.
Salute, salute, salute.

- He's your friend?
- Who, Louis Prima?

- Yeah. You know that.
- No. No.

Yeah. I told you.

No, you no tell me.

Yes, yes, I did.
You don't just remember.

No, I would remember.

Well, I told you.

Come on, I know everybody.

There's nobody I don't know.

Hey, hey, Primo, huh?
Let's have another... Wait...

Oh, fuck.
I fucked up.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Do you know what goes on in that
man's restaurant every night?

Rape! Rape!

That is what goes on
in that place every night!

The rape of cuisine!

But wh-what happened? What happened?
Please, please, please, please.

- What's wrong?
- Nothing.

This eggplant is no good.
It's too thick.

And if I cook it like this, too thick,
it's too heavy, I can't use it.

That's how your brother told me to cut it.
My brother was wrong!

Okay, he was wrong! What do you
want me to say? Okay? He was wrong!

Can you believe it?
People make mistakes.

That's what they do.
You should know that, okay?

When someone gives you advice, you should
think that maybe... they're making a mistake.

Okay? What you need to do is decide
for yourself what it is you want.

Okay? You understand?
Exactly what you want.

And then I won't have to throw
every goddamn thing away!

Okay!

Oh, my God!

I really think you need to be
by yourself for a while.

Phyllis? Phyllis?
Great!

Okay, you like it?

Okay, these should be
what he wanted. Yeah.

If there's a problem, he can call me.
Take that inside.

But we will see you
tonight, huh?

The party.

My brother
invite you, right?

N-No, he didn't.

Signorina, my brother
wants you to come.

But sometimes he's too...
Uh... you know?

Yes.

You come tonight.
It would be our honor.

Thank you, but...
No, no, no but.

Tonight, 8:00.

All right.
Thank you.

Ciao.

Ciao.

**

You look beautiful.

I tried to call you.

I was probably
in the shower.

I have to talk to my brother
for one second. Okay?

I'm glad
you are here.

So, how's everything
look, huh?

Good.
Good, good.

Go ahead.

What do you think?
More time.

How much?
'Til it's done.

Hey, look.

Say "formaggio."

**

Oh!

Cristiano,
come here, please.

Go outside and watch
for Louie Prima, okay.

I don't know
what he looks like.

Uh, here, here.
Like that. Okay, go.

He says, "Ah, it was the
first day with milk."

Ah!

Hey, what
you got there?

Help yourself.
Anything you want.

Cristiano, take care
of my friend.

Cristiano, right?
Do you have a car?

Here.
Cheers to you.

Eat this. Come on.
Drink that.

Ah, the reporter. Listen, help
yourself to anything you want.

I'll be back.

I'm Jameson, Daily Sun.
How are you?

Are you El Segundo? Gabriella's friend?
Secondo, Secondo.

Nice to meet you. Glad to know you.
Is Mr. Prima here?

No, he's not here yet,
but he will be here soon.

Is Gabriella here? She's not here, either.
Please, come in.

Can I fix you a drink? Something?
An appetizer. Well...

I don't think you can say,
if I do this,

then that will happen.

I mean, you can. But if you did that
all the time, where would you be?

Personally,
I think, nowhere.

This is focaccia,
which is nice.

We make that earlier
today, my brother and I.

This is a nice crostini. Excuse me,
don't mean to touch with my fingers.

That's okay.
This is nice.

Inside is olive oil
and goat cheese.

- The flower lady.
- What?

Hello, how are you? So nice to see you.
I'm good. Thank you.

Thank you for coming. You look beautiful.
Thank you for inviting me.

Watch the stove.

Oh, big brother! Here you go.
Oh, thank you.

How are you?

Look at you.

Hello.
Hello.

Uh...

Oh, my God.
I'm so glad...

you...

Now you can see where go
your beautiful flowers.

Yes. Yes. Did you
see behind the bar?

They're all over.
Gorgeous.

Lovely restaurant. I love
all the, um... paintings.

Oh, yes.

Show the lady.
Show me...

Oh. Yes. Yes! All right.

We start here
with this one.

Here, my aunt
and nephews.

She asked me what are the
favorite things I like.

* Buona sera, signorina
buona sera *

* It is time to say good night
to Napoli *

* Though it's hard for us
to whisper buona sera *

* With that old moon above
the Mediterranean sea *

* In the morning, signorina
we'll go walkin' *

* Where the mountains of the sun
come into sight *

* And by the little jewelry shop
we'll stop and linger *

* While I buy a wedding ring
for your finger *

* In the meantime let me
tell you that I love you *

* Buona sera, signorina
kiss me good night *

**

* Buona sera, signorina
buona sera *

* It is time to say good night
to Napoli *

* Though it is hard for us
to whisper buona sera *

* With that old moon above
the Mediterranean sea *

* Mmm, in the mornin'
signorina, we'll go walkin' *

* Where the mountains of the sun
come into sight *

* And by the little jewelry shop
we'll stop and linger *

* While I buy a wedding ring
for your finger *

* In the meantime let me
tell you that I love you *

What a crowd!

You know
Gabriella, right?

Yes, yes, sure.

Phyllis, you're a vision
of loveliness.

Thank you. Phyllis, you know
Gabriella, Gabriella, Phyllis.

Phyllis is Seco's...
fiancee?

No.
No, not quite.

What are you waiting for?
A sign from above?

He's like my mother,
this one.

Come on. Am I right?
I love this guy!

Look at that goddamn table.
It's nice, huh?

It's the Last fucking
Supper! Ha, ha, ha, ha!

We are just waiting for
the guest of honor now.

Forget about it. Don't
worry, he'll be here!

Where's your brother?
I'll say hi.

I see him! Hey!
Hey, Primo!

So, uh... Wait. I'll
come with you.

* Oh, oh, baby
Hurry, oh, oh, baby *

Annie. I love that corsage!
Oh, thank you.

* Oh, oh, baby *

* Hurry, oh, oh, baby *

* Hurry, oh, oh, baby *

Gabriella.
You know Ann, yes?

* Ooh, ah, ooh, ah *

* Ee, ooh, ooh, ooh *

Secondo, it will
be fine, eh?

Is a party, no?

Is fun. Good.

Oh, Mr. Fun, Mr. Fun.

**

Come here. Come here.

Don't worry about everything.
It's going to be fine.

I'm not worried about anything.
Have a little sip of my drink.

Cheers.

He plays the trumpet. He sings.
Isn't he...

They call him
"The Lip."

Hey, where did you go? Just
going to take test-drive.

Be right back.
Okay.

More scotch? Here.
Take the bottle.

It's a fiorentina sauce, but
quick, fresh, nice. Ah, see?

Sometimes you can put in cream,
if you like, but not for me.

It's no good for my stomach. My
mother cooked cream everything.

Have you ever been to Bologna?
No.

Oh. I take you
someday there.

I mean, you like cream? Yes.

Yes?
I thought you do.

Yes, yes, well.
You will love this place.

Bologna is sad, a little.
The city is old.

No, old is nice, but is dark.
But the food!

They make there a dish called lasagna.
Lasagna.

Lasagna bolognese.

You can't believe
how good this is.

And when my uncle, in Rome,
at this restaurant,

when he make this...
you eat and then you go and...

you kill yourself,
you have to kill yourself.

After you eat this,
you can't live!

Okay, smell. Smell.

Ohhh!
Is nice, huh?

That smells good.

Okay, this is done.
All right.

Now, taste. Taste. Ooh!

Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.

Is good, huh? You like?
Oh, my God.

"Oh, my God" is right, see?
Now you know:

To eat good food
is to be close to God.

You know what they say?
To know God...

To have the knowing...
The knowing?

Knowledge.
Knowledge?

Si. The knowledge of God
is the bread of angels.

I'm never sure what that means,
but is true anyway.

Thank you.
Take deep breaths.

You know how they get you,
these people?

Men? Boys?

They make you think they have
secrets they will tell.

But they have nothing to tell.
And then they talk.

And they talk, talk, talk,
and they keep talking.

And what do they say?
Nothing.

Right.

And then they smoke,
and then they talk some more.

And then, that's that.

Have you ever been
to the West?

Out west?
Mm-hmm.

Yes.

Really? They say
it's beautiful.

Yes. Very beautiful.

A little too vast for me.
Too what?

Vast. Spacious. Big.

Oh, vast!
Yeah.

How do you feel?

I feel better.
Want a puff?

Thanks.

So you prefer it here, east?

Yeah, I do.

I see.

Maybe I should
go out west.

Find a cowboy with a horse.
The whole thing.

What do you think?

A cowboy.

Yeah, I want one.
Strong.

Silent.

Like a statue.

Cool.
Always there.

Cowboys
are consistent.

* A girl went back to Napoli *

* Because she missed
the scenery *

* The native dances
and the charming songs *

* But wait a minute *

* Something's wrong *

**

* Ay, mambo *

* Mambo Italiano *

* Ay, mambo *

* Mambo Italiano *

* Go, go, go *

* Well, ay, mambo *

* Mambo Italiano *

* Try an enchilada
with the fish baccala *

* Ay, mambo *

* I love-a how
you dance the rhumba *

** Phyllis, what are you doing?

Oh, Gabriella, hello.
How are you?

Hi, hi.

What a fucking ride!

Come on, Bobby.
Let's get a drink.

* And ay, citrull' *

* You don't-a have

Everybody can capisci *

* 'Atsa nice **

Ay, Primo's cooking!

Let's eat.

Oh!

This is the green one that my brother
has made especially for you.

This is the pesto. This is regular risotto.
And this is seafood risotto.

That one.
This one?

Can I come back for more?
No, absolutely not!

What do you think? Do you
think he'll make it?

Louie Prima?
Yeah.

He'd better make it. He don't
know what he's missing.

Eat and taste it.
You'll like it.

You want some?

Okay.

- For you, sir.
- For me?

No, save this one
for Louie Prima.

Okay?
Okay. Okay.

Um...

maybe too hot, still.

No, no.
We have to serve now.

Okay. Okay.
No!

Wait. Cut it
at the table.

Okay. Okay.
Okay.

I worry it's going to be too hot.
It's going to fall apart.

That's what I say. Is it too hot?
We don't have time.

Let's go. Come on.
Cristiano, open the door.

**

What is that?
A timpano.

It's a secret recipe they
brought from their hometown.

I only heard about it.
I never had it.

- Bellissimo! Bellissimo!
- It's good, huh?

My God.

Goddamn it!

Goddamn it.
I should kill you.

This is so fucking good
I should kill you.

Paradise!

**

**

What's the matter?

My mother was such
a terrible cook.

**

**

**

Listen, um...

I'm gonna try and get someone
out here to write a review.

But that could take awhile. Oh.

I-I can't do the story about
Louie Prima, because...

he didn't show up.

Ah. But you were right.
It was the best. Ever.

Thank you.
I gotta go.

Okay. What time
do you have?

It's 3:00.
Good night.

Good night.
Good night.

One, two, three.

Now, careful,
because...

if it's too much wind
they fall over.

Careful, careful.

And they go up.
Isn't that beautiful?

Listen, baby, uh,

I don't know what to say.

I'm so fucking
embarrassed.

I'm sorry.

But you know what?

These people had a...

a great, goddamn time.

You should be proud,
like hell.

Everything'll be okay.

Hey, we'll...
we'll talk tomorrow.

Yeah, mm-hmm. Yeah. Okay.

You cannot be caught
with the ring. You must lie,

and cheat and swear
and kick.

Come, come and
stand in a circle.

Okay, everyone take.

Take the string. So, we're
not supposed to know?

You're supposed to... Trick!

Trick the person.

Now, everyone, stand in a
big round... Good, good.

Now, Ann, you start.
You go in the middle first.

Me?
Go on.

Close your eyes.

Do we say we have it? Are we
supposed to say we have it?

You must lie.
Lie and cheat? Okay.

I don't have it.
I got it right here.

Take it.
Take it.

Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey, you!

Oh! I don't!
I don't!

Where are you going? I've gotta go.
I'm going.

Gabriella, stick around. Yeah,
we're waiting for Louie Prima.

Don't hold your breath.

What? What do you want with me?
Hmm?

Why don't you tell your new friend
about who's coming tonight?

Hmm?

What...
What do you say?

Tell him.

He worked
very hard.

Come on.

Okay, okay.

What?

No, we should go now.
Let's go.

Tell your new friend. Come on.
No, come on. Let's go.

No one
is coming tonight.

No one
was ever coming.

There!
He's got it!

Phyllis!

Phyllis! Come here.
What are you doing?

Come here!

Phyllis!

Come here. You'll catch cold.
I want to talk to you.

Oh, my.

Phyllis.

What are you doing?

Ph... Phyllis, come here.
I want to talk to you.

Come here. Please!

I was just upset
and she just... No!

Don't do that.
I hate that.

Okay. Okay.

- Can I just talk to you...
- No.

I'm not here
anymore.

He's no coming.

Seco.

What?

Pascal never called.

What do you mean?

Pascal never called.
So he's no coming.

How do you know this?
Gabriella.

Pascal lied to you.
He lies.

Where is everybody?
I should go say something.

Come on. No. No,
no, no, no more!

Secondo.

Just listen.

Good.
Good.

Okay.

Good. Good.

You go. I'm going
to stay here.

No, no. No, no,
no, no, Secondo.

No. No, no.
You go.

Okay? Fuck him,
and fuck you.

You go back. You let somebody
else take care of you.

Okay?

Okay. Okay, good.

Go. Stay. No, go. Stay.

Good, good. Stay!

Stay. Go. Go.

You! You! You are the one!
You are the one!

What do you think? Do you
think things are so simple?

Do you think it is just like this and
like that, and that's all it is?

Is that what you think?

Is that what you think?
No.

We were dying,
and I did something!

For two years, I have
been doing it all!

What are... While you
have done nothing!

What are you doing? I
asked for your help.

I need you to sacrifice. Ha, ha!

And what do you do?
You give to me nothing!

Nothing! Is that what you think?

That I give to you nothing?
Yes, that is what I think.

Primo.

Basta, Primo.

Hey, Secondo. Great party, even if...
you know.

Can I take you somewhere?
No, no, no.

Thanks, though.
Okay. See you.

**

I used to play
at one time.

You ruined me.

Because of a woman?

Oh, please, Seco.
Be serious.

Why?

Because I wanted
to save you.

And then we would
go with you?

Where else
would you go?

What I did, I did
out of respect.

He's a great investment,
you know, your brother.

You too, of course.

You will never
have my brother.

He live in a world
above you.

What he has,
and what he is...

is rare.

You are nothing.

I'm a businessman.

I'm anything I need to be
at any time.

Tell me, what exactly
are you?

Are you hungry?

I'll do it.

Here.
Hm.
