"Havana, July 1958." "Dear Mr. Samuel Goldwyn" "President of Metro-Goldwyn Mayer Studios." "My name's Rodolfo Salas," "I'm a young Cuban, who like yourself deeply loves cinema and wishes to dedicate his life to moviemaking." "But my country is at war and fulfilling my dream is so very hard." "Let's go..." "We have to go." "Mama, what happened?" "Where do we have to go?" "Ask your father." "It's not forever, son..." "just a few months." " No... no... it's like forever." " But what happened?" "Lucrecia, do you think this is easy for me?" "Don't talk to me about revolution," "I'll make a revolution right here." " But what's going on?" " Shut up!" "The thing is..." " It's out." " What's out?" "What do you mean?" "There'll be a raid in Havana." "And I'm at the top of the list." "Which in other words means:" "I'm screwed." "A friend has offered me his house in San Juan de las Rocas." "In San Juan of what?" " There's a car coming!" " Shit!" "Get down!" "Jesus!" "Silence!" " Come on!" "Turn on the car!" " Wait!" "Dammit!" " No..." " What the f... will you shut up?" "No, no, no..." "Dammit!" "Shit!" "Dammit!" "They're getting away!" "THE ISLE OF DEATH" "Mind your great-grandfather's photo, the General." "Son, here you'll feel better, you can seek inspiration." "Look at this, trees, peace and quiet, birds." "There must be a cinema in this village." "Sure, and they'll be releasing the latest Lumière Brothers' film!" "Why do you look at me like that?" "You know I never get careless." "I'm glad that's the way you are." "Besides..." "We cannot give up in the face of difficulties." "And you." "Remember your great-grandfather, General Salas Delgado!" "He spent 30 days hidden in the forest, with a stab wound... and almost lost his senses forever." "And he got a bullet in his leg." "I know the story." "Well, if you know, follow his lead." "I don't know where you got such a stupid idea." "It's not like that." "Jesus!" "You're two of a kind!" "Bill and Ben." "Let's go, move along!" "There's nothing to see!" "Excuse me, lady, where's Martí St?" "Martí St?" "Here, go right." "WATCHSMITH" "VIOLIN LESSONS" "That town was the end of the Earth, in fact it made me suicidal." "I never felt so frustrated in all my life." "Nor did I ever feel so angry with my Dad for taking my dreams." "I just never expected that San Juan de las Rocas would change all of us," "My father, my dream and me." "Did you see that?" "Beautiful, gorgeous." " You're not from around here, right?" " No," "I'm from Havana." "Sure, I should have known." "The source of all that is good." "Havana... the best years of my life were spent in Havana." "I'm Toti," " at your service." " I'm Rodolfo." "Got any more of these?" "I collect them, you know?" "I'm a collector too!" "Really?" "What do you collect?" " I'd like one ticket, please." " Tickets?" "No, my angel, no." "We're decorating." "You'll have to come back next week." "This isn't the capital." " Did you bring the merchandise?" " Snake ointment and Caracolillo Coffee." "Let me introduce a new friendof our little group, Ambrosio Salas y García," " of rebellious stock and totally honest." " Don't exaggerate, Paco." "Ambrosio is going to help us, by sharing his experience of clandestine struggles with us." "Our goal is to bring Capt. Duarte a.k.a. "The Hyena", to justice." "He's the main repressive force in town." "San Juan de las Rocas," "July, 1958." "Dear Mr. Samuel Goldwyn," "President of the Metro-Goldwyn Mayer Studios." "My name's Rodolfo Salas." "I'm a Young Cuban who, like yourself, deeply loves the cinema and wishes to be a moviemaker." "But the situation in my country is increasingly difficult and fulfilling my dream is impossible." "I'm sending you my screenplays and I'd love to hear your opinion." "I beg of you an opportunity in your studios and I would do anything to demonstrate my talent." "Thankyou in advance for your time, Rodolfo Salas." "Do you think the kid's still pissed at me?" "No." "He'll get over it." "Can you spread some of this lotion on my back?" "Hey, give me a break, woman!" "I've had such a complicated day." "If I didn't know you better, I'd say you had another woman." "You know the only woman apart from you is the revolution." "Tell the revolution it's her fault..." "I lost my house in Havana" "Did you hear me?" "And I'll lose my husband, but you'll lose me too!" "I swear on the milk I suckled from Concha Ramírez." "Stop it, woman!" "Turn that off!" "No, no pillows!" "Get off!" "Sorry!" " This is the Post Office, isn't it?" " Post Office?" "No," "It's the drugstore." "It's Ava Gardner!" "Good morning, I'd like to know how much the letter costs." "Only 95 cents." "Papa..." "What do you want?" " Money?" " Yes..." " May I know what for?" " The same as always, the cinema." "From today onwards, you'll have to earn money by working." "If you want to live from art, suffer the consequences." "Thanks, Mama." "No son of mine is going to be a frustrated artist like his mother." "If you think that's doing any good, what it's doing is harm." "How can I help you?" "I'd like to know if anything has arrived for me." "Your name?" "Rodolfo Salas." "Yes, a letter from the USA," "The postman just left to deliver it." "Hey!" "Mr. Postman!" "Here!" "Rodolfo Salas!" "Do you have a letter for Rodolfo Salas?" "Nice to meet you, Gabriel Bolaños, but call me Garbo." "Rodolfo." " From Hollywood, isn't it?" " Yes." "Lucky you!" "Sign here." "Aren't you going to read what it says?" "No, I'd rather open it at home." "Thanks." "See you." "Look, we also like cinema!" "Mama!" "Mama!" " They've written to me from Hollywood!" " What did you say?" "It's a letter from Hollywood!" "My beautiful Mama." "It's in English." "Yes, son, but you read in English." "Did you see how they treat your son?" "It says "mister"!" "We're glad to receive your letter and we trust it won't be the last." "We are proud to receive praise, because what we do is for you, the spectators." "Reiterating our thanks," "Sincerely yours..." "Samuel Goldwyn." "Well, it's a nice letter." "Look son..." "Well, this man can't answer everyone who sends him a letter." "I'm sure it was his secretary that answered, but she was very nice." "If he answers all the letters..." "He'd have no time to make movies." "Rodolfo, my little one." "I knew it..." "Poor Rodolfo..." "Come here son." "I've made that delicious soup that you love." "Come on son, come." "I'm worried about that boy." "He hasn't eaten anything all day." "I think it's a good thing..." "Maybe his feet will hit the ground." "You have ice in your heart." "Please eat." "You never lose your appetite." "I'm going back to Havana." "I'll ask Uncle Bernardo for cash and I'm going to Hollywood to introduce myself to Metro." "There's no other way." "Don't try to stop me." "Rodolfo." " Is this the Havana train?" " Cut!" "Sorry..." "It's Rodolfo Salas, who gets letters from Hollywood." "Well, introductions later." "Let's repeat the scene, or I'll lose my concentration." "Come here, Rodolfo." "Let's do it again." "Rolling..." "Action!" "Laura is our female star and Leonardo our hero." "And producer!" "Without my money, nothing gets done here." "By the way, it's Rodolfo, right?" "Tomorrow, my father, who is mayor, will be holding a charity event at college... and we're thinking of showing some of the films I've produced." "If you want to come." "Well, Rodolfo, what did the letter say?" "Well..." "Samuel wrote to me saying that..." "Samuel Goldwyn?" "The president of Metro Studios!" "He's looking for new talents... and he seems to like my scripts." "Have you made any films yet?" "Yet, but they're no big deal." "Now I'm writing a screenplay... that I'd like to have made with real actors." "So why don't you film it with us?" "That way we'd learn." "Yes, because all we've done have been very simple things..." "Let's go Rodolfo!" "Yeah." "Where have you been?" "You'll give me a heart attack!" "I call Bernardo's house twice." "Nothing happened." "Is this the gun money?" "You'd better keep it." "We may be busted at any moment." "I promise." "I'll protect it with my life, Paco." "The thing is." "We cannot wait for the day to act." "My experience tells me if the people are not on our side, failure is guaranteed." "We can't count on support from anyone here until we kill Duarte." "Ambrosio, you have no idea how much the people fear him" "No, no." "We have to do something." "We should start by painting signs on walls in town, fill this place with signs so they know we're around." "And we can start tonight." "Who's coming with me?" "I'll go." "DOWN WITH BATISTA" "DOWN WITH DICTATORSHIP" "Stop!" "Listen." "I know that those responsible are three street cats, but I want names." "I don't know anything!" "We'll see." "Let's start from the beginning." "Wonderful!" "Rodolfo!" "So you're the young director on the film my son's producing." "Congratulations!" "You hear that?" "I want you to help with everything." "Thankyou very much, Mr. Mayor." "Rodolfo's mother will give violin lessons to Yolandita, Papa." "So you come from an artistic family like ours!" "So, what's the film about?" "Excuse me..." " Are you going to let me or not?" " Come on, tell us." "The film begins when Captain Johnson survives after a shipwreck" "He reaches a beach and meets Minerva and other people trying to escape." " But why?" " The isle... is dominated by an evil scientist called Kalistratus." "You've got a good imagination, kid!" " And how does he dominate them?" " Guess..." " He hypnotizes them?" " Exactly!" "And transforms them into zombies, so he can do macabre experiments." "But I don't get what Minerva has to do with it." "Minerva and Capt. Johnson fall in love!" "And when Kalistratus, kidnaps her, to transform her into a zombie, what do the Captain does?" "The Captain rescues her!" " What do you think?" "Did you like it?" " I like it." " Yeah, me too." " And what's it gonna be called?" ""The Isle of Death"." "The Isle..." "what happens there?" "Come on, come on." "I think somebody gets killed." " I'll see what happened." " Maybe that sack is something else." "Hey, Rodolfo... wake up!" "You too!" "You're just like my Papa!" " Let's go, guys, come on." " Move it, let's go, quickly!" "Who is it?" "Me." "Thank God you made it!" "They are arresting everyone downtown!" "They arrested a lot of people." " What did they do to you?" " Nothing, nothing." "Don't you know I spent the night with a terrible headache?" "What's the matter with this boy?" " Why does he treat me like that?" " Leave him alone." "He's a grown up now!" "Let's get some sleep!" "OK." "Fine!" ""The Isle of Death"." "Read it and tell me what you think." " "The Isle of Death"?" " Interesting." " Let's go outside?" " Come on." "How long did you take to write it?" "Not long, a couple of days." "So, what's the next step?" "We have to hold audition to choose actors..." " and find locations." " What's that?" "See where we're gonna shoot." " I can help you with locations." " OK." "Let's see." "First comes the beach." "You can count on me." "I'm gonna be in this film." "TOMORROW" "SCREEN TEST OLD DESTILLERY" "I have a wife and two kids to keep." "What if something happens to me?" "They'll have nobody!" "Things are worse after we wrote the signs, like I warned you!" "Leaving the group is no solution." "You won't be safe at your home." "They can kill you there." "They want to split us up." "And they're succeeding!" "Think about it..." "That's another one who's left us." "But the plan still stands, right?" "We can't be scared off by adversity." "If they hit us hard, we'll hit back even harder." "Is that clear?" "It's almost five." "I don't think anyone's coming." "Don't disappear now, OK?" "Let's wait a little longer." "How are you?" "Young." "Ladies." "And the artists?" " I thought here would be packed." " Nobody came." "It looks like people are scared." "Not of me, surely!" "I said I'd help you, didn't I?" "Wait here." "Well... as we read out your names say if you're here, OK?" "Sit where the lady is and look at the camera, tell us about something sad and something nice that happened to you." "OK?" "Well, my happiest moment was when my son Roberto was born." "My saddest time was, when they stole Mariposa, my goat." "The happiest time in my life was when I saw the sea for the first time." "The saddest moment," "was... was when..." "It's OK, don't worry." "Gentlemen, allow me to introduce Kalistratus!" "Congratulations!" "Wait outside for a moment, we'll call you in a second." "Well, yes?" "No?" "Did you see his face?" "Hello, zombies!" "This is Capt. Johnson with Minerva." "I want to congratulate you." "I really liked your screenplay, but it seems like my character loses strength at the end." "Did you rehearse the scene?" "Rehearse the scene?" "Us?" "Of course, everyone has to do the screentest." "No way, you're kidding." "They're our roles." "I'm not so sure." "I'm sorry, but I have to do the screen test with you." "Test me?" "!" "Leo..." "And what do you think of this?" "Well, Leonardo." "This time Rodolfo's the director." "Yes, we chose him." "Then listen carefully to what I'm gonna say, habanero, forget the money." "I don't intend to spend a dime on your shitty film, OK?" "You guys buy this Hollywood bullshit?" "Come on, Laura." "Rodolfo, I think you screwed up." "How are we gonna fund the filming?" "Don't worry." " I'll get the film made." " But who'll do Capt. Johnson?" "You!" "Habanero!" "Didn't I tell you I'd get the actors?" "Let's have a drink, I want to ask you something." "No, thanks." "I don't drink." "A soda then, my treat." "Don't piss me off!" "Life is full of surprises." "You left Havana for this dump of a city and I'm crazy about going to work there." "Here I'm wasting away." "We're still young, we have aspirations." "I've already requested a transfer to Havana... so I hope I get it," "I think I've earned it on merit." "But... there's a small group of rebels, painting signs all over town." "That I still haven't caught and I've been working like hell." "Have you heard anything about this?" "No." "I don't get involved." "Good thing you don't." "Artists shouldn't get involved in politics." "Another one?" "No, thanks." " What did you want to ask me?" " I'll tell you," "If the mayor asks, say I'm helping you a lot on the film." "His opinion carries a lot of weight in deciding on the transfer request." "Get it?" "I enjoy talking to you, habanero," "Put that on my tab, Paquito." "Do you know what a movie director and a cop have in common?" "What?" "Nothing!" "I was waiting for you." "Go ahead." "I wanted to talk to you." "I hope it's the first and last time I hear you talk to Duarte." "You know I'm a revolutionary." "Look at me when I'm talking!" "You know I spend my days risking my neck, don't you?" " Duarte wanted the meeting!" " Don't talk to me like that!" "Don't you lift your finger at me!" "And don't make out you're dumb!" "The fact that you're a lazy slob, who spends his life unemployed, playing with this movie crap, saying you're not interested in the revolution, for example, doesn't give you the right to conspire with Duarte." "That I shall not permit!" " Wait a minute, I'm not jackass!" " Put your hands down!" "I'm not an idiot!" "I know what's going on in this country." "I also want Batista to fall but I'm not the one who's going to do it, Papa." "Not me!" "You've been warned." "And another thing..." "I was reading you're little script." "Instead of writing fantasy, of no interest to anyone, you should write about real life." "For example, your great-grandfather." "Brigadier General Salas Delgado." "Laura!" "I've come for an audition." "I want to be in your film." "Yes, come in." "I know there's something inside me." "Something nobody's ever seen." "Lie on the bed." "It's for the test." "Close your eyes," "try and keep your mind blank." "Slowly open your eyes... and then you see him." "You're suddenly in love, your breathing is faster," "your lips are wet." "No, no." "You're weak." "That's it!" "That's right!" "You would give anything to kiss him, but you cannot." "The captain starts to move away." "You have to stop him with your eyes." "Yes!" "That's it!" "Keep going!" "Look inside yourself, search." "Look, that's it!" "Inside this Ava Gardner body a Magnani is imprisoned, let her out!" "That's it, stronger!" "Look inside you!" "More, yes, exactly!" "I'm sorry, I don't know what happened." "I think I got too far into Minerva's character." "Don't worry, it's quite normal for that to happen." "But you should control your emotions in front of the camera." "So?" "The role is mine?" "It's been yours from the outset." "I wrote Minerva thinking of you." " Well, see you." " Bye for now." "Hi, Laura." "Hi, Yolandita." "Mama, Yolandita's here!" "Mama!" "Don't start crying, Laura." "I don't see anything wrong with doing a test." "You sneaked into his house to beg for the role!" " Don't start all over again." " No, I won't start." "But I'll do everything in my power to see he films nothing." "I'll talk to Papa." "And you, forget this little flick, Do you understand me?" "In that case, it's over between us." "Laura, Laura!" "Leave me, Leonardo!" "Let go of me!" "I'm sorry!" "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." "You know how I get." "I say things without thinking." "This night has to be a special night, we cannot argue." "Well, we cannot carry on arguing." "Let me, let me..." "Did you like that?" "Papa wants us to get married before we go to New Jersey." "I thought we'd stay engaged for longer." "Well, it doesn't matter." "Why don't you go this week to Havana with your Mama to choose the wedding dress?" "You can choose whatever you want." "What happen to you baby?" "I don't know..." "You have to practice your English." "I don't know..." "Yes, yes!" "I love you, honey!" "Have you forgiven me?" "Yes, but promise me you won't say anything to your father" "and that you'll leave the film alone." "Promise?" "Alright." "I promise." "Forget Laura, Rodolfo." "She likes the good life... and she'll never leave this guy." "They liked each other from the moment they met, but money speaks louder than love." "You're melodramatic, Rodolfo." "Look," "I'll take you to a place where you'll forget all this." "Can I ask you a question?" "Go ahead." "Have you ever been with a woman?" "Kind of..." "Well, no." "Never." "I knew it!" "I knew it from the first moment I saw you touch the camera." " What's that got to do with it?" " You'd never touched a camera, Rodolfo." "Look." "Woman and cameras should be handled in the same way, delicately, but firmly." "Come here!" "Wait for me..." "Look, I'll leave it with you." "Don't worry." "It's a piece of cake." "I know that already." "Let's do it." " Come on." "Hold her firmly." " Like this?" "Laura." "I love you too, but I should stay here." "At the Isle of Death." "Yes, you're weaker, weaker." "And you, Garbo, look at her with desire." "Look with desire!" "Come on, Garbo, make it look like you're into women." " What are you doing here, Leo?" " Well... it's a public beach, isn't it?" "I came to see you." "Let's carry on." "Listen to this:" ""An actor's strength is in his look." "If your eyes don't transmit conviction and truth, then there's no point being here"." "You have to put more strength into the character, really embrace her, look at her with tenderness." "Get it?" "No one can fight him." "Kalistratus is invincible." " My love for you shall vanquish him." " Enough!" "That's the end of this bullshit!" "Don't be a jerk!" "This is art!" "Art?" "That's my fiancée's breast and he's touching it!" "Leo, please, let it go, don't be crass!" "Come on, Laura!" "Remember, when your teacher gets distracted, you go into Rodolfo's room and get the book I asked you to, ok?" " Why do you want so much money?" " My life is my business." "Yolanda!" "You have to be gentle with the bow." "You haven't been studying, Yolandita." "And... the head..." "Keep practicing, I'm going to the kitchen." "I'm telling you these people have something, Captain!" "It's very strange that they'd come from Havana to here." "My sister says when she arrives" "Ambrosio turns off the radio." "He's listening to a clandestine radio station!" "Leonardo, you're just angry because the habanero took you off the film." "Well, I've done my part," "don't tell me you weren't warned..." "Havana Central?" "This is Capt. Antonio Duarte from San Juan de las Rocas." "Yes!" "I need you to send me the files, of some fugitives." " Son, I'm going to the market." "My love, until it's over." "Rodolfo, That tall girl is looking for you." "Here's the negative." "Take it..." "Where's my cinema manual?" " Mama!" " What?" "Have you seen my cinema manual?" "It's disappeared." "What do you mean, disappeared?" "I don't even know what it is!" "Papa, where's my cinema manual?" "Camera." "Action!" "Rodolfo, everything's ready." "Toti!" "Rolling..." "Action!" "Why do you run away from me?" "I love you..." "Cut!" "Cut!" "That's it for today." "Thank you!" "I'm so excited, son!" "It's beautiful!" "You look like a shrimp!" "When we get home, I'll put vinegar on you." "No, Mama, not vinegar, please!" " Yes, my darling, yes..." " No, no." "Not vinegar." "I brought some lotion, for the sun." "Maybe it'll make you feel better, If you want." "There's nothing like vinegar." "Mama, the lotion's better." "Did you like my performance?" "You're very talented, you should exploit it, seriously." "Is it painful?" "Poor thing..." "A little lower..." "Like that?" "At the front, too." " Sorry!" " No, continue." "Rodolfito, my son, let's go." "Rodolfo!" " What?" " Wake up, son!" "Ah, yes, of course!" "Ready!" "Rolling." "Action!" "You can have my body, but you'll never have me!" "We'll see about that!" "Cut!" "Let's do it again, another take." "Action!" "You can have my body," "We'll see about that!" " Virgin Mary!" "For the love of God!" " What's up now?" "Take it easy!" "Hold this, Toti, while I see what it is." "Take it easy." "We'll do it again, it's not a problem." "Baby..." "Didn't your mother tell you girls don't play with electricity?" "You'll electrocute yourself!" "My brother says you're..." "What happened?" "Nothing, there was an excess of negative charge." "What do we do now, Rodolfo?" "Gentlemen, we'll continue tomorrow, no problem." "Good morning, family!" "Good morning..." "How can I help you?" "My watch doesn't work." "I've been meaning to bring it, but I've had so much on my mind on my mind..." "So you're a lover of the radio?" "You certainly like to listen to classical music while you work." "Sometimes." "I thought so." "As this is a family of artists, and your father, was he one too?" "My grandfather..." "He was a rebel..." "A rebel!" "It's a good think you didn't follow in his footsteps." "Fixing watches for a living is... less risky." "A rebel could wake up one morning..." "one morning... with a bullet to the head." "How long did you say it's been faulty for?" "Let me see..." "Ah, yes!" "It was the same day those signs appeared all over town." "Apparently, there's nothing wrong with your watch." "You simply needed to wind it." "You see?" "I have a lot on my mind." "How much do I owe you?" "Me?" "Nothing." "Well," "I'm sorry to bother you." "Say hello to your son for me." "Yolandita, my dear, I've made you some juice." "No, no, no..." "And..." "A little faster..." "Where have you been, Rodolfo?" " There's only one roll." "That'll do." " How?" "Somebody opened the cans and exposed the film." " But how did that happen?" " I'm sure it was my father," " first the manual and now this." " He would never do such a thing." " This is more like Leonardo's work." " You don't know my father." "So now what do we do?" "With the roll we have, we can do the last take of the film." "Very well... ready!" " Camera!" " Rolling!" "Action!" "Cut!" "That's it!" "The film's ready!" "Kalistratus and Minerva." "What do they do?" "Remember?" "Let's put everything here..." "You know what I was thinking?" "That cinema is like happiness..." "Why?" "Because it's made of small things..." "But this way there's no problem." "You would keep 50% of box office ticket sales!" "Don't make me laugh, kid." "What ticket sales?" "Who's gonna want to see a silent film these days?" "Listen to me, Honorato, Just one night, one screening..." "Forget it." "Toti, show these kids the door." " 70%." " No!" "Leave this to me, it's easy." "Aren't I the producer?" "Listen up, listen up!" "Tomorrow at 8pm, Cinema Ideal, opening night of the film "The Isle of Death"." "A story of love, mystery and adventure." "The very first movie entirely filmed in San Juan de las Rocas." "Don't miss it!" "Single screening Listen up, listen up!" "Tomorrow at 8pm, Cinema Ideal Opening night of the film." ""The Isle of Death"..." "What are you doing here?" " Rodolfo, I... no... no..." " Come in, don't stand outside." "Come on in." "Rodolfo, I found this at Leonardo's and I thought that..." "Well..." "I can't stop thinking about you." "Same here." "Laura, stay with me, we'll run away together." "When?" "Tomorrow, after the opening." "I'll wait for you at the station, we'll get the train to Havana." "Yes!" "Let's get away from here." "Take me with you." "Mama, please, hurry up." "We're going to be late." "Everyone must be at the theater!" " My dear, wait." "There's still time." " Where's father?" "Your father must be with "that woman" as always." "I'll close the back door." "Quickly, please." "Thank you." "Four, please." "Thanks." "One?" "Excuse me, Captain." "This has just arrived from Havana." "Ambrosio Salas Izquierdo." "You will be my letter of introduction in Havana." "THE ISLE OF DEATH" "WHERE I AM?" "WHO ARE YOU?" "YOU ARE IN THE ISLE OF DEATH" "Watchsmith!" "WE ARE DOMINATED BY THE SANGUINARY DR. KALISTRATUS" "Duarte!" "What did you say?" "I don't know but it sounded like, something about Duarte." "About Duarte?" "Where is the watchsmith?" "Everyone's at the cinema..." "That's right!" "The flick is tonight." "Well, a movie is what they'll get!" " I don't know what you mean..." " Don't you?" "This is so you'll understand!" "I'll see you later, Paquito." "Right now I have to meet the watchsmith." "Duarte!" "Duarte, The Hyena!" "Dammit, Rodolfo." "It's true that Kalistratus and Duarte are very much alike." " You did it on purpose, right?" " No." " Are you sure?" " I swear I didn't." "Look what you've done." "Mama, please..." " Papa... what is this?" " Yes." "I don't know what's going on here." "What's this?" "I don't know." "We have to do something, daddy." "You don't know?" "How can I stay calm?" "We have to do something!" "Bastard!" "Murderer!" "DON'T LET A SINGLE MAN DOMINATE YOU!" "UNITE AND FIGHT!" "People are getting confused about the plot of the movie." "If this is a love story, why are they talking about Duarte?" " What have you done, huh?" " Nothing, I've done nothing." "Bastard!" "Murderer!" "Down with Duarte!" "Down with Duarte!" "Throw him!" "Throw him!" "I warned you!" "We'd better calm things down in there." "Duarte is a murderer!" " Do you want to make a fool of me?" " This film is mine!" "You have no right!" "Listen to me!" "The theater is surrounded!" "If you cooperate, nothing will happen!" "I seek only one man!" "Watchsmith!" "Show your face!" "Let's go, Rodolfo." "Dammit!" "Shit!" "Rodolfo!" "Rodolfo, they'll kill us!" "Rodolfo, my son, go quickly!" "Mama." "This time I won't go with you." "What do you mean you won't come?" "I won't." "And where are you going, my son?"
