" Doing what?" " They steal grain for Montelepre." " They sell it in the village?" " lt's given to those who refuse work." "Will you sign this complaint?" "Back in Connecticut we have an old saying:" " "Let them eat bread."" " But they stole your horses." "I'll get them back, captain." "The usual way." "I'm sorry aboutyour man." "A village boy killing an officer!" "It's usually the other way around." "Goodbye, captain." "Giuliano." " Who fired first?" "Be honest." " The police, father." "We had stolen some grain." "It was Giuliano's idea." "People are starving in Montelepre." "He wanted to give them food." " Good deeds are punished in Sicily." " His was." "Can he stay here until he recovers?"

"You've got blood on your shoe." "I give a bad shave, you knowthat." "Giuliano?" "He's dying, professor." "They say the people don't want land." "They say the people only want bread!" "But they are wrong." "We want to own the land. lt belongs to us." "That is why we're here." "That's what the law says." "The new law." "Since the last election, all farmhands on an estate   have a right to a share in the estate's uncultivated land." "He is just one man." "He is controlled by Prince Borsa and Don Masino." "There are hundreds of you." "You are citizens!" "The law's with you!" "Not them!" " How is he?" " He was shot in the belly." " He says he'll live." " Says?" " You don't agree?" " He knows best." "He's safe in the mountains." "He says he will visityou soon." "Why does your brother do this?" " People don't dare to make demands." " l can't understand that he does." "is the mayor of Montelepre going to kill an opponent in the light of day?" "You are in the way!" "Aspanu!" "How did you get in?" "You smoke too much." "Giuliano will live." "Thank God." "Or maybe that's premature." " Don Masino wants him." " Don Masino can go to hell." "No!" "We don't speak of him like that." " He protects us." " He protects those who pay."

"He will get a pharmaceutical book where he can look up symptoms,   and then prescribe a cure." "He will have a wonderful career." "I knowthe boy." "He's a born healer." "I surrender." "So you have defeated me again, professor Adonis,   with your good sense." "So be it." "My nephew will be a doctor, and not a surgeon." "My ambitious sister ... a born surgeon herself,   a butcher anyway, will have to settle for that." "You must resign today." " You're mad." " No ... butyou are." " Why should I leave?" " You have said no to Don Masino." "You can no longer live in Sicily." " How are you?" " Have you ever been shot?" " l am Franciscan, not Jesuit." " Well, firstyou feel shock." "Then comes the pain." "Then the hot blood streams out." " Suddenly you feel immortal." " You are." "You are on your way to your heavenly protector." "You feel like someone else." "Someone untouchable." "Who could ..." "The answer to Don Masino, your earthly protector, is no." "You see, I feel capable of anything." " Since you were shot?" " Yes, and since I did not die." "As I was supposed to." "Here is Don Masino, your earthly protector." "Our chief." "The landlords like Prince Borsa, who pay for Masino's protection." "Here is the church ..." "and hope of a heaven."

"Tell Giuliano to behave." "He is safe under my protection." "What must he do in return?" "Like me, that's all." "But if he so much as looks at a bug, he is a dead man." " Don Masino is our friend." " He is not my friend." " Nor my brother's friend." " He could be." "I can see him dividing the land between us." "I hate political women." "So does Giuliano." " Forget the election for his sake." " Don't worry." "Opposites attract." "You look good." "You look different." " Hey, a moustache." " lt excites women." "You should grow one." " Giovanna?" " She's like a broken record."

" Let me kill him." " No!" "Let us respect him." "We don't kill the police." "At least not deliberately." "No sky flame over Sicily?" " Why should they come?" " Because I ought to be dead now." "But I survived for the second time." "They'll come because they know ..." " What?" " That I am special." " Passatempo is not coming." " Miracles impress even him." " Only cash impresses him." " He will get plenty." "I only ask for his loyalty." "Passatempo killed the uncle who gave him his first donkey!" "Then I'll have to teach him the meaning of loyalty." "Terranova!" "You will get used to the cold up here." "Passatempo!" " Where are your men?" " Where I want them." "Watching you ... and me." " We are indebted to you." " How much?" "Each of us gets a third of what we collect." " Fair enough." " Butyou follow me." "Understood?" "You are a boy!" "Butyou are lucky." "We'll do good business." "You'll be rich, Giuliano." "You must know that I bought the land for the people." " Why?" "Nobody ever did that." " That's why." "If you are a communist, we are out." "I only kill for a good Christian."

"Tell the papers that I, Salvatore Giuliano,   accept the army's generosity towards the poor of Sicily." "We will buy land for those with no land and food for those who starve." " For your share, not mine!" " For my third, of course." "I want all the credit." "Silvio." " For me or the election?" " Neither." "For the peasants." "To buy land." "You are serious, aren'tyou?" "They must knowthat I did this." "For them." "Why don'tyou run for President of Sicily!" "I've killed too many people." "Or maybe not enough." "I wonder if they will love you for this." "They're very odd, our people." "We'll know soon enough ... won't we?" "I am here in Rome as a Sicilian,   proudly following the career of your young friend." "He has style." "But as minister I am humiliated when he ridicules my police." "As a conservative I'm terrified when he buys land for the peasants." "He'll make Ferra popular." "We could lose the election." "My dear Trezza, I will happily make a speech on the radio." "Sicily will listen and that will be the end of Giuliano in politics." "If the peasants vote communist nextyear,   our party is finished." "Like the fascists, the communists will concentrate power in the state." "So they will not allow me to protectyour interests." "And vice versa." "The left must be destroyed ... crushed." "Your young friend must sever his dealings with Silvio Ferra." "Let me tell you about this girl." "She has dark red hair ..." "Green eyes ..." "Skin pale as fresh milk."

"Couldn'tyou tell?" "ministry OF justice" "Good morning." "Thanks." "I could never control Passatempo." "But he eats out of your hand." "Now what?" " Will we see your husband tonight?" " l hope not." "He's quite happy in Paris, spending my money." " How is the harvest?" " The best in years." " They tried to take my land." " As I told Masino:" "Hang them now, before the election." "Or it will be too late." "You know, Sandro, why don't we let them have our unused land?" " A very American comment." " l am very American." "Although I have been Sicilised." "Our unused land is worthless." "Hello." "It's Giuliano himself." "Make a place for our guest." "Here beside me." " l have already eaten." " That's right." " You dine early in the mountains." " Yes." "But the rest of you, go on with your lunch." "Prince Borsa ..." " This is a pleasure." " Quite." "I've come for your jewels." "I knowthey're upstairs." "May I have your watch?" "Thank you." " You have more." " Yes, in the bank in Palermo." "You wore the Crotone emeralds last night." "I sent them backthis morning." "No car drove from here to Palermo in the last week." "All right." "Don't make a mess." " You are an American, right?" " Yes." "And like every Sicilian, you want to open a pizzeria in New Jersey." "No." "Never." "I wouldn't mind being an American." "I'd like to be free." " But no pizzeria." " What else?" "The Mafia?" "Your kind knows more about them than I do." "After all, you pay them." " So you are just a bandit?" " No, not justa bandit." "Oh, right." "You give money to the people so they can buy land." "Or so you tell the papers." "I hate Glenn Miller." "Don'tyou have any Count Basie?" "I love Glenn Miller." "You are so fond of jewels." "You must have heard "String of Pearls"." "Yeah. lt's okay." "Too fast." "Slow down." "Like this." " Your ring." " What?" " Your emerald ring!" " No!" "I want it." " From the duke?" " My father gave it to me." "Now you give it to me." "I will always wear it." ""With this ring I thee wed ..."" "What?" "I suppose   now you'll rape me." "Don't I attractyou?" "Yes, you do." "Butyou're married ... to a duke." "I'm engaged." "Please!" "If you don't rape me, I'll have to rape you!" "They say he is both musical and handsome." "They took my grandfather's watch!" "Don Masino will string them up." " You're really beautiful." " That makes two of us." " Drawthe curtains." " l like the light." " ln Sicily, we make love in the dark." " lt's time you tried the light." "Women don't want to look at men." " They do, if they are in love." " Love?" "Well, lust then." "American army shorts." "You must have seen a lot of them when your army was here." "My husband married my money and I married his title." " l'm not a nun." " You are a rapist!" " How do you paint on a ceiling?" " With great difficulty, I think." " Do you know Truman?" " Beg your pardon?" "The President ... your president." "Do you know him?" " My father is a Republican." " A what?" "Never mind." " What about Truman?" " l make statements to the press." "Yes, we love them." "I mean it." "The Sicilians love you for whatyou say." "Some of them." "Could you get a message to Truman?" "Yes, I suppose I could." "What?" "I can arrange a referendum in Sicily." "Sicily would vote to join the United States." " lf Truman agrees." " What about Rome?" " What about Italy?" " You kill us." "Why do I steal?" "I was shot because I stole bread for Montelepre." "Why?" "Because many would have starved to death." "Why?" " Why?" " Because there is no work." "I'm afraid Mr. Truman won't help you." "He can't." " Why don'tyou go to America?" " And do what?" " Work." " ln a pizzeria ... in New Jersey?" "No thanks." "Here, I am Giuliano." "Not for long, I'm afraid." "Don't worry about the jewellery." "The insurance company in Milan will pay you." "And you'll be even richer." " Keep the ring." " l plan to." "But I am wearing it." ""With this ring I thee wed."" "You are right." "A quarter of a million is a lot." "Yes, it its." "And it's my money, notyours." "We pay you well so we can live safely." "Did your Excellency ever suffer any bodily harm?" "Mimmo, a coca-cola." "The acid of the champagne is bad for me." "So I drinkthe drink of your people." "I'll pour it, thank you." " That's only fair." " The Americans love that word." " l drinkto fairness for all." " Please, no wit, Don Masino." "You're acting out of character." "No irony, please." "I have so many characters." "So many uses." "Here is one, as if by magic." "Your jewels." "Brought to you by Professor Adonis from the university of Palermo." " Italy's leading expert on Dante." " Leopardi." "All's well that ends well." "You'll pay too much." "But as you won't tell the insurance company about the jewellery,   your profit is a hundred percent." " An interesting transaction." " Interesting?" "You have met ..." "and even got to know   the handsomest man in Sicily." "He keeps the ring." " Why?" " l suppose ... he wears it." "It's like grand opera." "So romantic." "The bandit, the beautiful American duchess." "Passion." "You may be a Sicilian duchess   butyou're still an American woman   who can match any Sicilian man." "I'm atyour knees." "Stay as you are, Don Masino." "I will blush if you kneel." " lf l could make you blush ..." " Aren'tyou afraid?" " Of making you blush?" " No, of Giuliano." " That boy?" " l would be afraid." "They call him the Lord of the Mountains." " Sicily is mostly mountains." " True." "The power and the money are by the sea." "Just goats in the mountains." "And Giuliano." "May I have the next dance?" "To show that we are still friends." " l didn't know you danced." " l danced a lot when I was young." "Like your husband." "We were boys together." "He was a duke, I was poor." "But in Sicily, all men are the same." "Yes, and the women are either madonnas or whores." "I was just in Rome." "Howthat city wakes me up." "I always come back with a new zest for life." "All Sicilian men have a zest for is death." "Don't say the word." "Thank you." "The weather is changing." "Good night, gentlemen." " Thank you, madam." " Good night." "Well?" "He still refuses to meetyou." "But he accepts your ..." "paternal affection." "That's a beginning." "What he wants I give." " Giuliano is coming to Palermo." " No." "That is out of the question." "You're crazy." " lf anybody recognizes you ..." " How could they?" "I'm all dressed up." "You don't look like somebody who would help the poor." "I bought the dress for you and the suit for me because we are poor." "I wanted trousers with lots of pleats." "A zoot suit." " Show-off." " My mother always said that." " So what did you do?" " l shot her." " That's not funny." " l'll never be funny again." "Not that way ... not in front of me." " Let's go dancing." " You are crazy." "And I am crazy because I am here in Palermo with you."

" He has been here for three months." " He has rough hands." "Salvatore Giuliano." "My sister spoke to me." "You have my blessing." "I thank you for your support." "Roccofino and his men!" "He must ..." "we must all do our duty." "Silvestro Canio is here." "Alone!" "He wants to join us." "Shall I kill him?" "The oldest trickthere is." "He is a spy." " You cost me my stripes." " What do you have to say?" "I know who betrayed you at the church." "Father Doldana was at the barber's, and he said you were in Montelepre." " How did he know?" " Heard it from the confession box." " He is not a priest." " l know." "The barber, Frisella, told Roccofino." "Frisella has always been their spy." "He's lying." "He'll betray you." "Only a friend can betray." "We'll see if you are lying." "Put it away." " l have a customer." " This is not the mountains, Giuliano." "Come outside." " Say something." " What?" "You are the mayor." "Don Masino's friend." "I am." "Butyou are not." "Come outside." "Salvatore ... I cutyour father's hair for 20 years!" "I've known you all your life!" "Giovanna ..." "Giovanna!" "I gave you lemon ice when you were a baby." "I saved your life when you were shot." " Make your peace with God." " ls my family going to starve?" "They won't." " For my son ... when he is grown." " Don't do it, Giuliano." "You're not ..." "You're not wise!" "So die all who betray Giuliano" "What are you going to do?" "Until Don Masino gets me more men, nothing." "I remember when he bought those shoes." " He said they would last forever." " They did." "I've known many hard men." "But the really hard ones   are those who can live with the things they did." "Why?" "In public?" "Everyone must know that I am serious." "Then, serious man,   give these to his son." "Yourself." "If you dare." "He wanted you to have these when you grow up." "What I did, I had to do." "You see ... he ..." "He ... I told him I would look after you." "I will." "Always" "Your Excellency." "Salvatore Giuliano respectfully asks you   to visit him in the mountains." " May I take my umbrella?" " Of course." "Try not to run as we come out." "I never run." "Not since school." "I have asthma." " lt's very beautiful." " Yes ..." "Scarlatti." "He was born near here." "He has asthma too." "is it raining?" "No, Excellency." "I'll get more food." "Are you ready, my son?" "I hope so, father, for l have sinned." "I have killed a man." "Worse." "He suffers from pride."

"I may be tactless, but what do you think I'm worth?" " You know, on the market." " The reward for me is 10 million." "I don't want to insult the richest man in Sicily,   so I would have to ask at least   ten times the price." " l hope my family agrees." " They'd better." "The news comes just like our police." "Afterthe crime." "Here we are, all together." "Friends." "We have a common enemy." "You all rule your own city." "But I'm a prisoner in mine." "Giuliano lets me live because he is not ready to fightyou." "But when he is ... what will you do?" " l'm here to listen." " We respectyou, Don Masino." "Withoutyou and your friends in the American army, we wouldn't be here." "That was yesterday." "Today we are being challenged and ridiculed." "If we forgive the kidnapping of Prince Borsa, we'll lose all respect." "Agreed." "Let me make a final attempt to reason with Giuliano." "No." "Thank you." "I knew you would agree with me." "There lies our strength." "We act as one." "You make no sense, Borsa." "Your servants are like family,   but if they want some of your useless land, you kill them." "Even the useless land has belonged to my family for a thousand years." "I hold it for my son, as my father did for me   and his father for him." "We will never let it go." " We can't."

"But if you were, you wouldn't be you." "You can take my money and my life, butyou can never be me." " That's metaphysics, Aspanu." " lt's horseshit, Giuliano." "That's life, gentlemen."
