"A woman shouldn't be alone in an elevator with a porter." "I didn't know what to say to Uncle." "He's used to being treated with respect." "He has an important position at the Vatican."

"One must seek refuge inside oneself, like the Countess Lucilla " " In "Love and Destiny."" " Good girl!" "So you remember."

"Uncle is right." "She should fast." "Ivan, I was telling the accountant that you're an excellent poet." "Let's hear the poem you composed for your fiancée."

"A seagull." "Dear little seagull." "It's the joy of remembering an afterlife... or previous life." "Previous life or afterlife?" "Previous." "Who knows who we were then, you and I?" "Perhaps I was a pirate, and I bet you were a mermaid." "How silly of me!" "I feel like crying, and yet I'm so happy." "Or perhaps crazy." "Crazy and happy." "Do you believe me?" " Come sit over here." "My little child." "Hold this." "My little child." "Here." "Afraid?" "Disgusted?" " What, then?" " I can't." " Why not?" " I just can't." " Then why did you lead me on?" " I can't surrender to you, Fernando." "Some things are larger and more powerful than we ourselves." "What are you " "I'm not unattached." "What, you have a boyfriend?" "So what?" "I'm married." "Married?" "You're disappointed." "Don't be jealous." "I don't love that woman." "Don't judge me harshly." "You don't know the whole truth." "She ruined my life." " Really?" " Tell me, Fernando." " No, don't ask." "Please!" "The fact is..." "It's a long story." "I loved another, named Milena." "She was so beautiful." "Beautiful like you." "You're much more beautiful." "I was going to marry her, but on our wedding day, using vile treachery and a magic concoction " " A what?" " A magic concoction." "The woman who is now my wife put me in a deep sleep." "A sleep close to death." "She made me lose my memory." "I swear, I lost my wits entirely." "When I came to, I discovered Milena had disappeared." " She may even be dead!" " Dead!" "Who knows?" "Poor Milena." "A magic concoction..." "Let's think no more of these things." "Am I worthy of your love?" "Oh, yes!" "Now that I've met you, what does anything else matter?" "The past is forever lost." "Give me a kiss." "Kiss me." "Give me a kiss!" "Oh, my God!" "My head!" "The rope!" " Where is the telephone?" " Downstairs." "Hello!" "Hello!" " This is Mr. Cavalli." " Who?" " Is she back?" " I told you she's not!" "She's still not back?" "Please come in." "Sit down." "What's this "delicate matter"?" "I'm listening." "Will my statement end up in the papers?" "Why?" "I have important relatives in Rome, and I am very well-known in Altovilla Marittima." ""A delicate matter." Well?" "This morning... a lady left the hotel Tre Fiori... at around 9:30." "She went to Via XXIV Maggio, and she has yet to return." "A letter was found that doesn't indicate " "What?" "This lady's husband can't tell who sent it." "He is certain she knew no one in Rome." "Based on these facts, the authorities should determine why " "Why what?" "Why this lady left the Hotel Tre Fiori to go to Via XXIV Maggio." "No, please." ""Dear Passionate Dolly:" "If, as you say, you will visit Rome soon, come and see me." "We'll spend a few unforgettable hours together." "Your White Sheik."" "So, are you "Passionate Dolly"?" " Me?" "Right." "Just answer one question." " Of course." "Did you find this letter on the lady in question?" "No, in a puddle of water on the floor." "Apparently the bathtub overflowed, and I saw the letter floating in the water." "One can only suppose that the lady was about to take a bath." "A logical supposition." "That explains everything!" " You really think so?" "Of course, Mr... uh..." "Ivan Cavalli." " And your father's name?" " Why do you need that?" " Your father's name!" " Don't yell." "I'm not yelling." "Your father's name?" " Luigi." "The lady's name?" "That's really not necessary!" "Of course it's not." "It's just a formality." "If it makes you feel better, I've been expecting you." "Just yesterday I was saying:" ""Why doesn't Mr. Cavalli come in?"" "And now, the lady's name?" " Giardino, Wanda." "Is her married name Cavalli?" "This will ruin me!" "No one must know." "My father is a councilman." "My uncle works for the Vatican." "I understand." "All very noble sentiments." "Now, then:" "Is her married name Cavalli?" "My career!" "My family's honor!" "Is it Cavalli?" "Yes, it's Cavalli." "Just give me a couple minutes." "You just wait here." "Have a cigarette." "Please, have one." "Wait here and try to calm down." "Remember, don't be nervous." "You'll see:" "We'll teach that sheik a lesson." "You'll see." "Call Mr. Bonanni." "What is the world coming to?" "Everyone's going mad!" "Young man, could you give me a hand?" "Thank you very much." "Cavalli, Ivan!" "You reckless hooligan!" "We've been waiting for three hours!" "We've wasted the whole day!" "You ruined everything!" "I'm canceling your contract!" "I created you and I can destroy you!" "Go back to being a butcher's shop boy!" "That's where you belong!" "No, don't say anything!" "You have no conscience!" "You're completely unprofessional!" "Look at that clown!" "You're an idiot, Just like all your fans!" " Don't try to talk your way out of this!" " It wasn't my fault." "It was this idiot's fault!" " You'll never work for me again!" "Forget about him." "Professor, let me explain." " Can you believe that guy?" " He's entirely right." "I've been waiting for four hours, you idiot!" " What do you want?" " You bum!" "Rita!" "When did you get here?" "We were fooling around." "I took the boat out." "But I'll never do it again!" "I got hit over the head." "I was just fooling around." "The sail came loose, and the boom hit me on the head." "Look, I have a bump here." "This is our new actress." "She's very talented." "My wife." " How do you do?" "Suddenly I'm freezing cold." "I'll get dressed, and then we'll go straight home." "Hey, you." " Who, me?" " Yes." "Come here." "Whore." " What?" "You whore!" " Rita, behave yourself." " I'll take care of you later!" "You slut!" "Leave him alone." "I know all about it, how you tricked him into marrying you." "You shouldn't have done that." " What's she talking about?" "That was a low trick." "He loved another woman." "Another woman?" "But you gave him that concoction and kidnapped him from the church." "What are you talking about?" "Are you trying to ruin me?" "Where did you get that nonsense?" "She's making it all up, 'cause I certainly didn't say it." "She talked like this on the boat." "I thought she was crazy." "Rita, I don't even know her." "Rita, the scooter's ready." "I've looked everywhere, but I can't find her." " What's her name?" " How should I know?" "Fernando knows." " Don't look at me." "So you don't know?" " Passionate Dolly, she said." " Passionate Dolly." "He said her name is Passionate Dolly." " Rita, let's go." " Leave me alone." "Give me a kiss." "I'll give you a kiss, all right!" " I'll strangle you." " Knock it off." "Good-bye, Professor." "So long, everyone." "So long, Nando." "Are we leaving, or what?" "We've been waiting for an hour." "What about her?" "She probably went back to Rome on her own." "Let's go." "Where can she be?" "All aboard!" "Professor, this guy says they stole his clothes from his car." " I told you, I know nothing about it." " What do you mean?" "I know nothing." "If you had locked your car, no one would have stolen your clothes." "Are we among civilized people or are we in the jungle?" " Shut up!" " I'm going to the police." " Fine.Just get out of our hair." " We'll see who has the last laugh." "We're not afraid of you, fatso!" "Criminals!" "Thiefs!" "What are you doing here?" "Where are the others?" "They searched for you for hours and finally left." "Is this your coat?" "I found it on the beach." "Yes." "Thank you." " How will you get back to Rome?" " I don't know." "Stop." "The window's dark." " Wanda must be asleep." " Of course." "Well, I think that's enough for one day." "Tomorrow, then?" "Tomorrow." "10:00 sharp at the hotel." " At 10:00." " Yes, here." "The pope expects us at 11:00." "I was able to postpone the visit." "You and Wanda, of course." " Yes, of course." "Here, tomorrow." "At 1:00 we're having lunch with the De Pisis family." "Then we'll see the Palatine, the senate, the parliament and the new subway." "Wonderful." "Come on, let's go home." "Wish Wanda good night, as we have yet to have the pleasure." "Good night, Uncle." "Good night, Aunt." "Good night." "Good night, and thank you for a wonderful day." "To Piazza Vittorio." "Please don't worry." "Wanda will be fine tomorrow." "Good night, Auntie." "Remember, right here at 10:00." "Yes, right here." "Good night, Ivan." "You're such a romantic, pining away." "Good evening." " Is she back?" "No, she's not." "Pardon me, but what happened?" "Nothing." "The end of the first part was amazing.!" "He asks her, "Do you love me?" "Then dance with me!"" "And they both start dancing, like this." "I should have been a dancer." "That guy's really plastered." "Is he crying?" "He's crying!" "Are you crazy?" "Let's go, Cabiria." "Hey, you." "Are you going to kill yourself?" "Get over here!" " What's the matter?" " My wife ran away." "His wife ran away!" "The poor guy's miserable." "Here, mister, have a cigarette." "Assunta, give me a match." "Poor guy." "Some of us women aren't like those others." "Why did she take off?" "Did you beat her?" "No." "Did you beat her?" "Were you a naughty boy?" "What?" "We arrived this morning without a hitch." "Right on time." "We took a carriage." " What did they take?" " A carriage." "We went to the hotel." "It was all arranged." "We were to see the pope at 11:00." " The pope?" "Yes, the pope." "One of my cousins went to see him." "He was expecting us." "We had plans to see so many places." "The Altar of the Nation, the Coliseum." "Wanda, why?" "Sugared almonds!" "Can I have one?" "You mean...you were on your honeymoon?" "Yes, our honeymoon." "Wow!" "She ran away with her lover." "It was all planned." "Maybe she had an accident." "No, this was no accident." "See?" "Was your wife young and pretty?" "Yes, very pretty." "Look here." "Your wife is 13 years old?" "This was her First Communion." "This is April of last year, when we got engaged." "She's 20." " She's a cutie!" "Look." " She's beautiful!" "Here she is in first grade." "She got all As." " A good student!" " Except in penmanship." "Two years ago at the beach." "Pretty." "Your wife looks good in a bathing suit." "Here she was six months old." "She was born in September 1932." "How sweet!" "Look, Arturo is here!" "Who's calling me?" " It's Cabiria." " What are you doing here?" "Come on, let's see you spit fire." "I'm exhausted." "No, you're not." "Come on." "Let's go to your hotel so you can rest." "Do you like me?" "Watch this!" "Shall we go?" "You need some rest." "Don't you like me?" "Watch this!" "Where are you going?" "Bye, Cabiria." "See you tomorrow." "Again!" " There's the Hotel Tre Fiori." " Please, don't drive any closer." "Sure you don't want to come over for a plate of risotto?" "There's no one home." "They're all in Cortina." "You could get some rest, too." " Let me out!" " Too bad." "No risotto, then?" "Thank you, but please don't insist." "Go jump in a lake, you tease!" "Hotel Tre Fiori." "Is Mr. Cavalli in?" "The key isn't here." "Let me call him." "No, don't call him." "Let him sleep, poor man." "Just tell him not to expect me." "Hello?" "Tell him that evil fate caused me to sully his name." "I have shamed him, but I am innocent and pure." "Tell him... that I have been cast in the mud, and he will never see me again." "Let me write this down." "Yes, life is a dream, but sometimes that dream is a bottomless pit." "Bottomless?" "Is that B like in banana?" "Could you repeat that?" "Who's there?" "Who's down there?"

"Take it easy." "Stop!" "Let me go!" "Let him get up." "Everything's fine, really." "Nothing's happened." "Come on, let's all go see the pope." "Wanda's ready." "She's fine." "Wanda, hurry up, dear." "We're all waiting for you." "She says she's coming." "You go on ahead." "You mustn't frighten her." "You go ahead to St. Peter's." "We'll catch up with you in half an hour under the colonnade." "We'll see you in half an hour under the colonnade." "Ivan, man to man, what is going on?" "Wait for me downstairs!" "Go on, go!" "Go!" " You talking to me?" "All right." "Tell me."

"Your wife is inside." "Stay calm and don't be too alarmed." "The pope is expecting us at 11:00." "You have five minutes to get dressed." "I don't want to know anything now." "Our family's honor comes first." "Get dressed!" "Here are your shoes and your veil." "Get dressed right now." "Right now!" " Where are you from, my dear?" " Caprarola." " You too?" " Yes, sister."

"Ivan, hurry up, we have to catch up with the other couples." "Thank you." "And good luck." "Ivan, are you done paying?" "Come on." "Come on." "We have to hurry." "The others are already going in." "Take off your raincoat and give your wife your right arm." "All right." "Are you ready?" "Let's go." "Behave yourself." "Ivan..." "I didn't do anything wrong." "Believe me." "Really." "It was just cruel fate." "But I am pure and innocent." "And I am too." "You're my White Sheik." "Let's pick up the pace!" "THE END"
