"He's got a month to to marry you... or I'II kill him." "The word of PasquaIino Seven Beauties." "Do you understand?" "Rosina, my carnation." "Coming right up, PasquaIino." "Damn Francesco!" "After all this time in Africa." "Now they're sending him to Spain." "We needed another war." "It wasn't enough last time." "Now we'II never get married." "Don't give up hope." "Because with God's help... he may still be lucky enough to get a nice wound... in his leg or his arm." "You'd get a pension for life and you'd be set." "What are you saying?" "Or he'II lose an eye." "What crazy talk, Mama!" "Hey, Mama, we don't enjoy such lucky accidents..." "...in our family." "Yes, of course." "It will pass." "Grandma." "Rough up those mattresses." "PasquaIino, leave it in the drawer." "Are you looking for trouble?" "Hey, Mama, it doesn't get you into trouble..." "They learn to fear you, and respect you." "And believe me, they all respect me." "Excuse us for a moment, family business." "You'II pardon us?" "He has to talk to them in private." "We have business to discuss." "It's a big secret." "Who gives a damn!" "Quiet." "You can't trust them to lick Leno's family..." "Is that clear?" "Mama, look, money to buy groceries." "Lucky Mama." "I'm sick of bread and onions." "Buy an egg for each one of you... and be careful of cheats." "It'd disgust anybody... to look at such yellow faces." "There's a Iot to be done if they're ever to get married." "Stop that!" "Now, listen to me." "Don't let anybody see your eyes, look down... or you may be taken for a cheap little tart." "And I'II beat the first one who misbehaves." "Remember." "smile, no reason to be upset like that." "Cheer up." "Have a good day." "And you too, LouiseIIe." "And you too." "Hmm?" "Don't look so gloomy, eh?" "smile for a change!" "What's the matter with you?" "What the hell do you think you're doing?" "Don't stop singing!" "We need the money!" "Understand?" "Go on, sing!" "You, get going!" "little girl, have your parrot tell my fortune." "Why the tears?" "It's my mother's fault." "I never could sing, I go off pitch." "To make me sing is wrong." "Don't make fun of me." "But it doesn't matter, you can yell." "The men bother me." "They make fun and tease." "Can't you answer back?" "If anyone faiIs to respect you..." "You just say that you're my fiancee." "Hmm?" "In these words." "Say you're engaged to PasquaIino Seven Beauties." "But I'm not your fiancee." "It's false." "At the moment." "In a few years, things could happen." "Never try to predict the weather, or the future." "Think about growing up." "Say, come on, try." "Even you started stealing from the cradle." "jealousy is an ugly thing." "Excuse me, Don RaphaeIe, I don't understand." "What's the matter?" "I've always been loyal." "It's not about loyalty." "I'm interested in people who know how to show respect." "What are you talking about?" "What are you referring to?" "I'II tell you what I'm referring to." "I'm talking about someone... who doesn't respect his family." "In what sense?" "I'II tell you." "At 3 o'cIock, you'd better be at the PoIonetto." "Have a look around." "See what they're doing to you." "Potono bought your sister a pair of shoes... with red bows on them, and put her in there for life." "We have a client." "My God!" "It's my brother!" "Who is he?" "No, it's her brother!" "Prostitute!" "Stupid bitch!" "Are you satisfied now... your fiance got you into this business?" "Idiot!" "What a disgrace!" "You brought dishonor on us!" "Let go!" "Get the hell out of my way!"

"Weren't you going to marry my sister, Concettina?" "You promised and therefore you'II marry her." "Who are you?" "Who the hell do you think you are?" "miserable worm." "Get out." "I didn't understand." "Does that help you understand?" "Have a good day." "Poor boy." "will he be all right?" "Get that mess out of here!" "We've got customers!" "Where is he?" "Where is he?" "Where is that rotten son of a bitch?" "Where'd he go?" "It's really not worth bothering about." "Isn't it?" "I'm going to chop his head off." "Scum, humiliating me." "He won't live long." "Eighteen Karat Potono... wake up!" "I won't shoot out the brains of a sleeping man." "Come on, wake up." "Wake up." "It's me." "No, Jesus!" "Don't shoot." "You're the one who caused it." "You called me miserable worm, remember?" "Find that pistol, I need it." "Find it and be quick!" "It's important to my defense." "He's dead." "Where the hell are we?" "Hey, Jesus, what..." "I smell onions." "Ah, Signora." "Good morning, goet morgen." "Excuse me for coming in without permission." "Stay quiet." "I'm sorry to disturb you, but I'm hungry." "I'm an italian soldier." "Understand?" "No?" "That's all right." "FrauIien Deutsche." "Oh, something to eat." "italian soldier, naples." "Sunshine, blue water... mandoIins." "Understand?" "A pizza pie with tomatoes on top... or macaroni." "There's food in here." "I'm starving!" "Ah, Deutsche soup." "Nice and hot." "Signora, I'm hungry." "I'II have some bread... with your permission." "Oh, bread with stew?" "It's so good." "Our Mama often gave us stew in naples." "A Mama, Signora, is never forgotten." "You're a Mama too." "Your daughter at the piano... she'II catch cold with her bare ass out." "Hard times, Signora, the war's been responsible." "Shh, if someone's there, I... no, it's all right." "Soup, bread, potatoes..." "I'm taking some bread for my friend." "He's italian." "This is for him." "A drop of wine, cin-cin, salute." "Good wine." "Guten." "I'd Iike to be your guest..." "Your daughter, she has a great ass... but I have to run." "Thank you." "May you live to be a hundred." "Oh, salami... salami and some cheese." "Dankeschun, Bitteschun, auf wiedersehn..." "Good night, Signora." "What's that about?" "Groundsport." "A mysterious word, amigo." "We must work occasionally, or else acid bath..." "...or crematorium." "How d'you know?" "Who're you?" "That's how it is." "I'm a death expert." "I know an anarchist whose bombs didn't work." "MussoIini, hitler, CeIIezar." "I've got failure after failure." "These people have made a business out of death." "That goddamn rotten whore!" "What's the world coming to?" "How the hell did the world ever get like this?" "And we let ourselves get killed this way." "Nobody says anything." "The Jews, who were supposed to be so smart..." "The brave Russians... who began the revolution... they're not rebelling." "My rotten luck, ending up in this shitpiIe." "Jesus!" "They're playing waltz." "My God!" "My God!" "Like sheep about to be slaughtered." "It can't be." "Francesco, I don't want to die." "I can't accept that." "I'm still young." "I had a miserable life." "I would've liked to change it, but I never managed to." "I can't die like this." "I just can't die like this." "I'II try and get out of here." "I'II do it!" "I'II find a way to get out of here..." "Starting at this moment." "A woman is a woman, PasquaIino." "And a woman, even one who is an evil person, has... a little good for someone who can reach her heart." "There's a bit of sugar always there." "The song goes..." "In a cup of coffee, RosaIie" "ugly to take, unsavory" "Sugary, burnt and wasting Can make it distasteful" "So I must stir her up, Like a sugar in the cup" "To bring to my lips What's sweet and fine" "La Ia Ia Ia Ia" "You're crazy, PasquaIino." "Yes, but I must try." "It's dangerous." "She's cruel, sadistic." "I understand all that." "But I had a vision." "It was a song, something my Mama said... that bit of sugar, I know it's there." "Soon, no matter how rotten she is... or how evil, she's no exception." "She must need love." "I'm right, Franche." "You're educated, but in the matter of women..." "I'm way ahead of you." "I'm sure you'd be." "Do you know how people used to call me?" "PasquaIino Seven Beauties." "They did?" "Because I'm ugly." "You look terrible, all right." "But that was the point." "In spite of my looks..." "I appealed to women." "They loved me." "people were amazed." "They'd say, it's unbelievable." "he's repulsive." "Others replied... he must have the Seven Beauties..." "That's how it came to be my name, see?" "No, but I believe you." "I appeal to the ladies." "I used to appeal to them." "The fact is... without any exaggeration..." "I haven't looked at the mirror in years." "And since I know from the beginning... that I've always been an ugly man..." "I'II admit it's been bothering me." "How have I turned out?" "My teeth have become loose." "I can't keep my eyes open." "My ass has dropped." "Look at me and tell me honestly." "How do I Iook?" "awful, to be quite honest." "I'd forget it." "No!" "I'm bound to be killed, so why not?" "I want to live, have children." "See my children's children, and more... and the children of my children's children." "AII the children I can possibly have." "bullshit, amigo." "You pig!" "How dare you tell me what to do!" "Who are you?" "!" "How dare you insult me like that?" "!" "Come on, that's nonsense, you're talking bullshit... because the more children you have... the faster the end will come." "In what sense?" "What do you mean?" "In the year 1400 there were 500 million people on earth." "By the year 1850 the amount had doubled to one billion." "Now we're all..." "extremely indignant... because of the death of 20 million men... but in 200 or 300 years... there'II be a Iot more of us, 30 billion or more." "Anywhere you go on earth will be worse than here." "That's when men are going to butcher each other... and murder an entire family... for a piece of bread or an apple... and the world will end." "Too bad, because I believe in man... but soon... very soon, a new man..." "A new man will be born." "He'II have to be civilized... not this beast who's been endowed with intelligence... and obliterated the harmony in the world... and brought about total destruction... just by disturbing nature's equilibrium." "A new man... able to rediscover the harmony that's within." "You mean, put things in order?" "Order?" "No, no..." "The orderly ones are the Germans." "A new man in disorder is our only hope." "A new man in disorder." "You made a mistake, boy." "You made a mistake." "You should've waited until he got his revolver out." "I waited about 5 minutes, but... he didn't have a gun around." "He didn't have a weapon." "You shouldn't have shot him... or given Potono a gun." "I only had one." "You should've had two with you." "You can't never be careful enough." "This case demanded the simplest of care." "You must prepare for the job." "You should throw him his gun, defend yourself." "He picks the gun up, you shoot him." "You didn't murder him." "SeIf-defense." "Later on, the case comes up, a quick trial." "In no time you're out and you're respected." "It's a breeze, get it?" "Don RaphaeI, how could I have known?" "A real man prepares a job with foresight... or else anyone at all would be able to do it." "Now you're in trouble... of making it all disappear." "50% is all you can hope to get out of it morally." "I'm talking about respect." "You must make yourself a name." "You need lots of publicity." "For this you need discretion." "The man's on a trip now." "He's gone to America." "It's a supposition, but we must be sure." "He's disappeared." "Sounds simple." "How am I to fix it?" "Throw him in the bay?" "It'II rise to the top... you'II go straight to prison." "marvelous, perfect, dammit!" "Dear God." "Imagination." "A creative effort's needed." "Easy, no?" "Like smoking a cigarette." "Smoking cigarettes, anybody can do that." "The man who wants to be something more... needs the guts to perform!" "The nerve to do things that normally... no one else could possibly imagine." "Get the point?" "I get the point, Don RaphaeI." "You seem nervous, my boy." "calm down, my boy." "I am calm." "There are men at the mention of whose name... the whole world trembles." "Get my point, PasquaIino?" "I get it." "You're intelligent... you follow everything I tell you." "I follow, Don RaphaeI." "As I explained... you could make a great start for yourself... with this opportunity, or not." "Of course, it's entirely up to you." "Potono has to disappear." "Don't pay attention... to anyone who talks about the American system." "traditional cement shoes were invented here in naples." "Chicago and New York just make cheap imitations." "It's plagiarism." "The king-size coffin is our invention." "When you see a funeral in naples, nobody knows... how many bodies are in the coffin." "When things get busy, 2 or 3 can be stuffed in." "Depends on the demand." "We invented everything here in naples." "For exampIe, you know the ancient graveyard... well, when they first opened it... they found 500 skeletons." "Now, there are 5,000." "The question is, who put the other 4,500 in there?" "So, as I said, it depends on the demand." "Oh, God." "He's so ugly." "Wait a minute, here." "Son of a bitch." "Even dead, you are a pig." "Just a big bag of wind." "I knew it." "Dammit!" "Who's there?" "Who's there?" "Who is it?" "Who are you?" "Who is it?" "Who's there?" "What's going on?" "Who's there?" "What's going on?" "Get going." "Where to?" "To the station." "And hurry." "Damn stupid animal!" "blind idiot!" "You should be ashamed of yourself!" "You have no respect for a poor blind man!" "Son of a bitch!" "What is this?" "Stay back." "Keep your hands off me, please." "Get back." "will you get back!" "I don't want any help." "I'II manage myself." "I don't need help." "please." "I can manage myself." "He's so strong!" "Look." "A big cheese box roped up wrong." "could you please take these?" "Thanks." "How did you rap it?" "Don't drop anything." "That's enough now!" "Where are you going?" "palermo, milano and Genoa." "You know that shipment of ProkoIoni." "It's been sent off." "PaIermo, milano and Genoa." "Good-bye." "It was your advice I followed... about creative thinking." "I don't think you'II hear about it anymore." "He killed my Potono!" "police!" "He killed him!" "Live me alone..." "Give up!" "You'II never take PasquaIino Seven Beauties." "Never will you be able to take him alive." "Stop bragging." "So I'm wrong." "Achtung!" "Achtung!" "Are you out of your mind?" "Don't worry." "Where are you going?" "Be quiet." "Shit!" "Monster of naples confesses!" "It's PasquaIino and no other." "Latest edition!" "Big murder story!" "So, you have confessed." "Yes, Sir." "Nobody in his right mind ever confessed such a thing." "complete madness!" "I will look ridiculous." "What the hell do you think I can tell the judge, huh?" "It's impossible to defend this case." "Advocate, this time I lost." "I'm glad I confessed, I'm a man of honor." "You're an asshole." "How dare you!" "You'II pay for that!" "calm down, or that'II be..." "the end of my visit." "Who the hell are you?" "Your lawyer." "Do you want to kill me as well?" "Better hold your tongue." "Watch that asshole stuff." "I wanted to say incompetent." "It's not so simple." "I have a great reputation." "You understand, or not?" "If you screw yourself, I won't take the case." "How can I defend you if you tell the truth." "The monster of naples is captured and confesses." "Who ever heard of such a thing?" "Confesses..." "It's unbelievable!" "Look, confesses to cutting up the victim... and shipping the body to 3 different cities." "To do it, I understand." "But to confess..." "The only thing left for us to do... is plead insanity." "I don't get it." "I'II claim you're mad... out of your mind." "really?" "I have to deny an honorable act... aimed at protecting the loss of dignity... and pretend I'm a fool." "Let's forget it, my friend." "Can't you understand?" "Don't you see?" "You're confused." "Look, they're going to condemn you to death, huh?" "It's the firing squad." "I can't play the fool." "I'm sorry about Don RaphaeI... but I'II have to send you away." "You'II give me a scoop, understand?" "I won't do it." "What should I do?" "I have high blood pressure." "I've got to stay calm." "Make up your mind." "If you plead insanity..." "I'II defend you... and we may save your neck." "But if you prefer your stupid honor... we'II forget about it, and you're dead." "It's your life or your honor." "Think about it, PasquaIino Porfusso, and let me know." "AII right, then, you can see your visitors." "Let the family in now." "Mama!" "Mama!" "Mama!" "PasquaIino." "Mama!" "PasquaIino!" "Mama!" "My PasquaIino!" "Mama!" "PasquaIino, my son!" "Mama!" "Mama." "My son." "Mama." "At last I can see you." "You're telling me..." "How you are?" "I'm not so well." "How about you?" "Does Don RaphaeI give you anything?" "He's been helping us a little... but not with money, just words... so it's been left for us to manage somehow." "How do you manage?" "I'II do all I can..." "Concettina!" "PasquaIino!" "He's a friend." "What do you want?" "Your lawyer's one of the best here in naples... recommended by Don RaphaeI." "He costs a Iot." "You did commit the crime." "She's not innocent..." "It's one matter not being innocent." "Being a whore is another." "Now sweetheart, have a little patience." "A rotten comedy, a lousy farce... called living." "Your ass will drop... and your belly'II get fat without exercise." "Come on, run." "Keep the body beautiful." "You'II be as good as new." "ItaIians!" "What now?" "Let's welcome the war for the virtues it brings out... in those of us who have the guts to fight!" "We're making history." "Our people are... a race of distant warriors!" "Duce!" "Duce!" "Duce!" "Duce!" "It's very funny." "Our people are poets and heroes." "He's out of his mind." "And that is their fame." "The challenge this breed poses is a threat..." "to all on earth." "Take him away, eh?" "political?" "No, hatchet killer." "Oh." "PasquaIino Porfuso, 'The Monster of naples'." "The act of an unbalanced mind, 12 years." "You're lucky." "They gave me 28 years and 4 months." "Twenty-eight?" "!" "How did it come to that?" "I simply thought." "It's the most atrocious crime a citizen could commit." "He doesn't want that." "Ah, you're anti-fascist." "socialist." "To tell the truth, politics are boring." "I've other interests." "Papa was a bricklayer." "He talked a little socialism." "But I don't think about it anymore... because... because I think II Duce is pretty great." "To be truthful, he's given us roads." "How much he's given, an entire empire." "AII the other countries are jealous of our leader." "Listening to the man speak to us... that voice, and those eyes... and his court found me completely insane." "And our people are respected." "They used to spit at us, italians, on the face." "Remember those days?" "Besides, there were many strikes, riots... demonstrations, we used to be in terrible condition." "And thanks to him, there has been no disorder." "He is a marvel, you're right." "There has been law and order, and... he's done it by outlawing unions and strikes." "The result is that salaries in 1919 were up... and today, people are making less than half... while the cost of living has increased 30%." "You didn't know that, huh?" "This MussoIini, of whom everyone envies us..." "Do you know who envies us?" "The landlords!" "The italians are a bunch of fools..." "listening to that man, that bag of air on his balcony." "Your Duce." "Wait, wait... no." "careful, they'II hear us." "You mentioned the strikes, and the riots?" "At least then we knew there was a disease... and we could hope to get well." "Now we imagine we're strong... and we hide the disease." "That man will bring our country to war." "That's the final catastrophe." "You put it well." "What do you intend to do?" "I don't bother with politics." "I go to the insane asylum, stay there for 10 years." "It's just a question of getting things organized... becoming friendly with some doctor or some nurse." "In naples, we're very inventive." "I might get assigned to clean the women's quarters." "Then I'II have it made." "I'II be on Easy Street." "What do you know, you're awake." "Let me see how well you've done." "A little bit." "That's not much." "Not enough." "To pee is to live." "The more you pee, the more you live." "PasquaIino, how are you doing?"

"I..." "What are you saying, you disgusting macaroni?" "I Iove..." "I'm in love with you." "I Iove you very much." "Strip." "What?" "Did I hear right?" "You asked me to strip?" "AII right." "I'm willing because I'd Iike to make you laugh... because I Iove you." "You hate me." "You all despise me." "You want something to eat." "You love me to get something to eat..." "I'm sorry, Signora." "You know how hungry I am." "But what goes on inside my heart..." "You have no idea." "You're right." "Everybody hates you." "I should too." "I should hate you because I've never seen... a woman like you." "I have to admit I'm crazy... but the reason I'm crazy is because... because I'm not convinced you are as you seem."

"When you're in love, you lose all perspective..." "I've gone crazy thinking of you." "That's why I did what I did and that's why I'm here now." "And that's why I'm asking you one big favor, one." "I'm going to be killed and I ask to be killed by you." "By the touch of your hand." "I beg you, touch me... and I'd be very glad if you'd kill me now." "Touch me." "You shit, NeopoIitan." "You can hardly stand." "You cannot keep on playing in this comedy of yours." "You want to eat." "Now, you'II make love to me... then I'II kill you with my bare hands." "Verstanden?" "It's what you asked, no?" "Yes, thank you." "You have to be patient." "I Iove you, but I'm weak." "You can't even open your eyes." "You don't have the energy for an erection." "Wake up!" "Better eat, naples." "Now you eat, afterward you fuck." "If you don't fuck, you're kaput." "Bibi, my first love... help me get it up." "I want to see your eyes." "Drek." "You disgust me." "Your thirst for life disgusts me." "Your love disgusts me." "In Paris, there is a Greek... who found strength to make love to a goose." "He screwed for what it gave him... something to eat."

"The choice is yours." "You pig, you rotten dirty." "Now you're a butcher like the rest of us." "filthy sub-human italian." "No." "I've got to." "The bitch said so." "Either 6 or all of us." "Every last one of them is doomed to die." "At least we'II save our ass." "No." "We'II be just like them..." "That's what they want." "We must say no." "And all the men will be dead tomorrow?" "AII the men, tomorrow." "Screw off." "Say what you want... but remember who's boss." "Here, Group 3." "Whoever they may be, I'm not interested." "Into 14." "I don't want to know who they are." "Here, the first 6." "You need only 5." "What do you mean?" "I volunteer." "You're crazy." "Why?" "Because I'm fed up with this." "Come on, get in line." "It's an order!" "It's an order, go on!"

"Rotten animals!" "God, what do they want?" "What do they want?" "I won't shoot him." "Shoot." "Shoot." "Hurry up, you'II be freeing me..." "Come on, shoot!" "Somebody else will shoot me if you won't." "At least you're my friend." "Now, shoot, please..." "You'II be doing me a favor." "Shoot!" "I won't be tortured any more." "Don't you understand?" "I can't play the hero much longer." "Don't make me ashamed in front of the others." "Shoot!" "Do me a favor..." "Come on!" "Go on, shoot, dammit." "Mama, guess!" "It's PasquaIino!" "PasquaIino is alive!" "He's alive, I don't believe it!" "He's alive!" "PasquaIi!" "PasquaIi!" "My boy is all right!" "And so you turned out to be a whore too, huh?" "Yes." "And did you earn enough to get along?" "Yes." "Good." "Now quick, you're giving it up... we're getting married." "There isn't much time to lose." "I want children." "Many children: 25, 30."
