"A VERY FINE NOVEMBER" "Nino!" "Nino!" "Nino!" "What did you feel when dad died?" "Nothing." " Did you cry?" "No, I went out to get an ice cream." "How beautiful!" "Look!" "Just look!" "Dad used to always bring us here." "Do you remember Dad well?" "Yes, very well." "One time, he gave me a slap, because I told a lie." "Let's go home, Umberto." "It's late." " One more minute, please!" "Come on." "Uncle Concetto!" " Umberto!" "Hi, Nino." "Tomorrow morning at nine, I'll come with you to Zafferana." "Run now to Mommy who's waiting for you." "Good night." " Bye, Uncle." "Are you tired?" " No." "Go..." "Did Dad look like Uncle Concetto?" " No, not in the least." " Mom!" "Finally!" "I was starting to become worried." "Wake up!" "Wake up, boys!" "Umberto!" "There are presents." "The gifts from the dead have arrived!" " Morning, Mom." "Aren't you coming?" " Soon." "Wake up, Nino!" "There are presents!" "None here." "None here." "Hey, Mom!" "I like to think that the dead are bringing me presents." "But it is the dead!" "They come every night on November 2." "Come on, help me!" "Tell me "cold" or "hot"." "Cold.." "Cold.." "Warmer.. warmer.." "Here!" " Hot!" "Dad!" "No.." "No, no!" "Search well!" "I found it!" "I found the gift!" " Well done!" " Nino!" "Nino, I found your gift for you." " All right!" "But how come you don't want to see what it is?" " It doesn't matter." "Open up!" "It's a gift from Dad." "Thank you." " It's amazing!" "It's a diver's watch." "Maybe the dead will bring me one too?" "It even shows the days." "November 2." "Are Biagio and Cettina coming also too the villa?" " Yes." "Ah, Aunt Cettina!" "She's the one that ran away with Uncle Biagio!" "Umberto!" " How are they doing now?" "Are they getting along?" " Yes." "Nino, what did you decide?" "Concetto says that the winter courses are better." "Summer courses are too hasty." "I'd recommend you leave immediately.." "at the end of the month." " But, I don't know if I want to go to England." "What use would English be to me?" "Without English, one can't do anything." "I want to stay here." "Assunta!" "Bless you!" "At your service, Sir!" "Good day, Ma'am!" " Hi, Assunta." " Nino!" "How handsome, tall you are!" "My man!" "I'm mad with joy!" "Where are the others?" " I'm sorry, they waited for you since 11." "They went to the cemetery." " All right." "Thanks." "Shall we go?" " Yes, let's go." "Hi, Assunta!" " Darling!" "Rosaria!" "Help me carry the suitcases!" "Here!" "Hi!" " Hi!" "So, the tribe is complete." "They're lovely, aren't they?" "What dignity!" "Hi!" "Hi!" "Look at Turiddu and his mother." "Always together." "Amalia, always on the edge of madness." "The masterpiece is Uncle Alfio." "He was shot 25 years ago for loving his sister-in-law and remains paralyzed." "Now, he doesn't like Aunt Amalia anymore." "He'd like to throw away her and the crutches." "And my mother?" "We too will become like them." "No." "We're not like that." "We'll never be like that." "Are you really sure?" "Welcome." " Hello, Turiddu." "Hello." " Hello, Elisa." " Hello, Elisa." " Hello." "Hello." " Hello, Umberto." "You never have enough money, do you?" "What a beautiful day!" "Do you really have to go?" " Yes, I told you I'm busy!" " Come back soon!" "Mom!" "We're going to visit the lodge." " Bye, kids!" " Bye, have a good trip!" "Say something to our daughter." "Don't be late, I beg you!" " No, Dad." "Bye, Mommy!" "Bye." "Bye!" "Come on, Nino!" "Giulietta!" "Hey, wait for me!" " Let me see." "Not going well, is it?" "Not even one centimeter more!" "You're not growing any more." "But the chest is growing." " Stop it, Mimi!" " Come here!" "Mimi, what are you doing?" "Look at her, Nino!" " Help!" "Get off me!" "Help!" "Keep still!" "Get off me!" "We're no longer kids!" "Help!" " Hold still!" "Get off me, Nino!" "Come here, Giulietta!" "Keep still!" "Keep still!" "Besides, Uncle Alfio will leave you Solfatara." "Knock it off with that story of Uncle Alfio!" "If you want to know, Solfatara is already in my mom's name." " Better!" "What is he leaving you then, Etna?" "How you've changed!" "You even have a beard this year." "Turiddu!" "Don't pull on the threads." " OK, OK, don't have a fit." " Where's Turiddu?" "Turiddu!" "Turiddu!" "Here I am." " Well, then.." "Here!" "Open." "Open it up!" "It's magnificent.." " No.." "Giulietta." "Come here." "Here you are." "You are beautiful." "Magnificent!" "How much?" " Three." "I told you so, dummy!" "You wanted him give five." "I knew Santostefano is in dire straits." "Come with me in the study." "Excuse me." "I bet that mummy promised you a percentage, didn't he?" "Tell me the truth, he promised you, right?" "I would never.." " I know, when you see a princess.." "you drop your pants!" "Poor Turiddu." "He has such talents!" "Why don't you find him a wife?" "As if it were up to me!" "It's he who doesn't want to." "But wasn't he in love with that girl from Acireale?" "True, but I would never let that one ever set foot in my house." "Why don't you marry him?" "Between him and Uncle Alfio, you'll remain a virgin." "What do you think?" " Good idea." "The estate will stay in the family." "Here they are!" " Here comes the loony bin!" "Alfio!" "Elisa!" "Where are you?" "Where are you hiding?" " Cettina!" "Ah!" " Welcome!" " Thank you." "How are you, Cettina?" " Very well." "Oh, Hi!" " Hi!" " Hi, little ones." "These are for you." " Thank you." "Hello, Elisa!" "And Biagio?" " He's in Palermo, he's coming tomorrow." "Am I wrong.." " How beautiful!" " ..or is this really Nino?" "How big you become my Nino!" "You know, you look like somebody else!" "How long since I saw you last?" "Two summers ago I think." "No, more than that." "Much more." "You looked almost afraid!" "They grow every day, don't they?" "Irememberyouweresosmall !" "You were like a little flower." "Time passes by, so quickly." "Wake up!" "Is that how you greet your aunt?" "It's too early to play the gentleman." "I'm your Aunt Cettina." "Give me a kiss here, right now." "Nice!" "What are you doing?" "Blushing?" "Assunta, which room are you putting me in this year?" " The blue room." "This year, we're not opening any new rooms." "Orders of your uncle." "Down that way, you see?" "Do you need anything, Mrs. Cettina?" " Nothing at all." "Good night!" " Good night." "Nino, come!" "Help me unpack." "Hopefully, there are no mice in the closet." "Stop!" "I'm choking!" "Take that!" "Children, don't do that!" "Everyone in bed immediately!" "You woke up Uncle Alfio!" "Come on, get in." "Open the suitcase!" "Hurry!" "There should be a pair of slippers." "Can you give them to me?" "There they are." "Yes, these are the ones." "But you never talk?" "No." "Good!" "Come on!" "Here, put this away." "Over there." "There, in the second drawer." "Take these as well." "I'm a little dizzy." "Uncle Alfio's wine is strong, isn't it?" "Ah, that's Biagio's." "I forgot to give it back to him." "I hope I won't need it." "Why?" "The Mafia!" "The Mafia!" "I think I drank a little too much." "I'm going to wash my face, we can finish this after." "Take this one too." "Good night, Son." " Good night, Mother." "Good night." "Can you pass me the comb?" "Tonight, did you notice?" "There were thirteen of us at the table." " Are you superstitious?" "Are you?" " I'm not." "I am.. very much." "I feel better already." "You know what we'll do now?" "Enough with the suitcases." "We'll put them on top of the armoire and not think about them anymore." "Come on!" "That's done." "Thank you." "You're an angel!" "Are you tired?" "Are you sleepy?" "No." "But you must go to sleep." "I'm so tired, I can't keep my eyes open." "Good night." "Good night." "Nino!" "The light bulb must be burned out." "Even this one doesn't turn on." "Maybe it's not screwed in right." " I don't know anything about it." "Check this one out too." "There should be a plug somewhere." "Here it is." " Ah, great!" "Do you remember?" "The same thing happened four years ago.." "when we slept here with Mom." " Yes, that's right." "Now I remember." "When was it?" "Spring?" "Yes, it was Easter." " Ah, yes!" "Everybody was there, what a mess!" "All three of us squeezed into this bed." "You were here.. right next to me." "Do you remember?" "I had to sleep sideways from then on." "Poor Nino!" "And now.. good night." "Go now." "Don't close the door." "I don't like it being closed." "You're not asleep?" "I can't sleep either." "And I can't read." "For some time, I haven't been able to read." "Dear grandparents!" "Have you seen what a satisfied air both of them have.. in this villa?" "They wanted to build something that would last." "And indeed.. here everything lasts." "Nothing gets moved, nothing gets thrown away." "On the contrary, it accumulates." "Did you see Uncle Alfio with that necklace?" "How he stroked it!" "He loves things.." "and crushes people without batting an eyelash." "You're lucky you're going to London." "I'm no longer going." "Are you crazy?" " What's the point?" "What will change?" " Everything will change and do you know why?" "Because you won't be here anymore." "No more the son of the son, the nephew of the nephew, the friend of the friend." "That's nobody!" " No, you'll be yourself." "And if you're wrong, it'll be your fault." "You'll see when you're on the plane, everything will change." "You'll forget everything." "Everything." "To forget, I would have to spend a lifetime on a plane." " Why not?" "Better than staying in this sanctified brothel." "What are you doing, Mimi?" "Aunt Cettina is sleeping in the room next to yours." "Did you know?" "The black sheep of the family." "Her way is free." "But most of all, she's happy.. happy to me.." " I don't feel like talking!" "Listen to me, leave." "Why don't you go to London?" "I want to see just how far we'll go." "Heroin for Uncle." "Here are your drops." "Good morning!" " Good morning." " Welcome." "Good morning, Maria." " May I?" " No!" "Here, ma'am." " Thank you." " Take that one!" "I like taking them from the wrapper myself!" "Who died?" "Maria!" " One can't even speak." "Hi!" "Hi!" "Don't eat up all that honey!" "Watch out or you'll get fat!" "Come with me!" " Where to?" "Come on!" "You want some?" " Oh, yes!" "I bet we'll get stuck on the thorns!" " No, I have a knife." "Leave it to me." "You need to eat them when they are still fresh from being bathed by the frost." "Exquisite." "I used to come here often with a classmate of mine." "My first love, in the fifth grade." "We gave each other big kisses." "Big kisses on the cheek, like this." "One day we were caught by Aunt Tecla." "She made me kneel for three hours." "A sort of medieval torture." "I gritted my teeth and said," ""My dear old maid.." "I'll never become like you!"" ""I want to be beautiful, free, loved and happy!"" "What happened?" "You've become sad all of the sudden?" " No, not at all." "Oh, yes you are, and you can't hide it." "Take this one, I peeled it for you." "Pick another, so we can eat it together." "And Uncle Biagio?" " What about Uncle Biagio?" "Ah, you mean.. when we first met?" "They say that I ran away with him." "I liked him, was that so wrong?" "Cettina!" "It's Uncle Biagio!" "Take this." "Cettina!" "Cettina!" "Where did she go?" " Biagio!" "Here she is!" "Biagio!" "Have you noticed?" "Did you see who's here?" "You have decided to come at last!" " It's a real pleasure for me." "How beautiful you are!" " Thank you." "Sasà, don't say you don't remember her?" " I'd be very jealous in your place." "Why?" "Beautiful things are made to be admired, right?" "And if not, what can one do?" " You are a true philosopher!" "Good night, Nino." "Good night." "Get undressed." " Hold on." "Biagio." "What is it, Nino?" "Mommy, I fell down." "Go in there, I'll be there soon." "Go in there." "Go on." "What a pity!" " Again, Biagio!" " Here, try this one!" "Terrible!" "Another one." "No way!" "What a shame." "It's your fault!" " Try it again." "Ah, no!" "Biagio doesn't know how to throw." "Look here, try mine, they're better." "Here." " Thanks." "Let's see what happens." " Ready?" "I'm here." " I'm ready." "Go!" "No way!" "It's because of you!" " Give us another." " Go!" "Your throwing stinks!" " No, no..." " Enough!" "The women at home are making socks." "Nino!" "Come here!" "You try a little." " Yes, take it and have fun!" "Nice!" "Great, Nino!" "Again." "Good!" " Very good!" "That's it." " Great, Nino!" "He's good, isn't he, Sasà?" "Why does Uncle Biagio push her into the arms of Sasà?" "Why does he do it?" "And she?" "Why doesn't she rebel?" "Why is she like that?" "The Sicily that was and that should remain!" "Go on!" " Why?" "How would you like it if a woman you loved, beautiful, dark.." "full figured.." "when you meet her again, she's all bones.." "skinny as a stick!" "Ah, Alfio!" "But Sicily is not a woman." "It's just like a woman!" "However.. however, she has a face.." "a face like yours." "Yours included." "All faces can be read." "Even if they don't speak." "What do you mean?" " I'm saying that it's not difficult to read inside of you." "If you're able to read inside of all of us.. it must be edifying." "No, not really edifying.. but true!" "I could tell what you're all thinking!" "It's written here, on your face." "Well, if you want to know, I can make guess about others too!" "About Turiddu, for example." "Or Aunt Amalia." "Or you." "Then.. you have a fine system!" "You buy all the things that others are forced to sell." "I'm a raider, OK and you know why:" "Because I like things." "Like I love that picture, like I keep this house exactly as grandpa built it!" "Because it's beautiful!" "Because it has a face!" "Ah, because it has a face!" "But, you're crazy, Alfio!" "You say I'm crazy, fine I'm crazy." "But not enough to build houses like you do!" "I'll put up the money." " Yes, fine!" "And make a good return." " Yes, you'll make money!" "Make it destroying!" " No, we don't destroy, we construct, we build!" "What?" "Do you know what you build?" "Neon prisons!" "But what prisons, Alfio?" "Hotels!" " Yeah!" "Hotels of reinforced concrete all the same, sad.." "that when you're inside, you don't know where you are!" "And who doesn't where he is, doesn't know who he is." "You have it all wrong!" "Fine, let's leave Sicily as it is:" "like a museum!" "You shouldn't be allowed touch Sicily!" " And who doesn't know where he is, doesn't know who he is." "No one should allow it!" "Instead, you degrade it.." " Like a whore!" "Nino!" "What a way to talk!" " You shut up!" "He's right." "Like a prostitute or if you prefer, a whore!" "The world is changing." "It goes forward." "Keep up to date, Alfio." " You nailed it." "right on the head:" "I don't change!" " OK." "Nino, what are you doing?" " Don't worry, it wears it well!" "How do they say it?" "Wine is a godsend!" "What you waiting for?" "What?" "Wait!" "Come here.." "close to me." "Biagio!" " Yes." "You know that.." "Biagio!" "Yes, dear." "You know, very much." "Yes." "All right, yes." "Please, don't make me wait, I beg you, OK?" "Well, this afternoon at the notary's at five." "Bye." "What a bore, I really must go back to Catania." "I'm sorry to leave." "Biagio, are you really going to Catania?" " Huh?" "Of course." "Can you take me with you?" " Yes, but hurry." " Thanks." "Give me two minutes." "You know.." " Nino, keep an eye on Umberto!" "I'll be back soon." " Watch out." "Bye." " Bye." "Up until a few years ago, there were always those who told me what I should do or should not do." "And I believed them." "My mother was so beautiful, so serene." "How could I ever think she was lying, that even she didn't believe the words?" "I'd like to be safe and uncomplicated.." "like my father." "Too many myths!" "Do you know what it's like to want a person for years.." "to the point that others don't exist.." "and not to be able to talk about it to anyone.. not even to her.." "the person you love?" "And for so many reasons, to continue to keep it all inside, in silence?" "I know." "We become attached to silence like a sickness." "Better to be silent, than to discover that Paradise doesn't exist." "You know.. sometimes.." "I feel like that I need to make a decision.." "But I don't even know what or how." "What should I do?" " If we keep on staying here, we'll go under." "Look at our family: all the same." "Corrupt.. sad." "So sad." "Air, Nino!" "Air!" "This is a corrupt prison." "Let's get out." "Let's leave it all behind." " No, I'm staying." "All or nothing." "Wait up!" "What did you do all day?" "You disappeared!" "And at dinner, you never opened your mouth." "Tonight I feel like a drunk." "Come on." "Help unzip my dress." "Here?" " Yes" "Tonight I would like to be 17 like you." "Step back." "What are you doing?" "Let me pass." "Open the window instead." "It seems almost summer, doesn't it?" " Turn around for a sec." "You can turn around." "It's hot!" "I need to bathe or else I'll break out." "It would be nice to take a shower, but you can't here." "I wonder how the grandparents did it!" " Perhaps with the pitchers." "You know what we'll do?" "I'll stand in the tub.." "you fill two pitchers of water and pour it over me, OK?" " Sure!" " All right!" "Here are some already filled, but maybe the water is cold." " That's fine." "But.. how do we do it?" " I can't take the shower in front of you naked." "Nino?" "Step on the stool." "Pour the water on me from above." "It'll be a perfect shower." "Hope so." "Slowly!" "Don't go so fast." "Over the shoulders!" " Is this good?" "It's wonderful!" "I feel reborn." "Now on the shoulders." "We're done." " Hold on." "Hurry!" "Hurry up, Nino!" " There's this other one." "Come on, I'm cold." "So, Nino.." "well.. what is it?" "Last night while we were at dinner, I saw.." "Sasà courting you." "Courting?" "Well, it didn't annoy me." "How did you realize it?" "He always had his hand under the table." " So what?" "He was touching you." " Touching me?" "What?" "Yes, your legs!" "You're beginning to take an early interest in certain things!" "I saw it, I'm sure." "That's enough." "Pour a little bit more and then go over there." "How nice!" "I feel like another person." "Now, explain to me fully this story about Sasà." "It's the first time that I heard a boy imagine such a story." "So.." "his hands were under the table.." "and my legs were under the table." "I couldn't keep them on the table, could I?" "Why does that matter?" " Yeah, why does it?" "I already told you:" "I looked and I saw him touching you." "Did he not?" "Isn't it true?" "My darling, my husband was there, my brother was there.." "the whole family was there and so were you." "Well.. perhaps he may have tried it, but I would've moved his hand away." "No!" "That's not true." "I didn't see you do that." " Yes, I did." "I also gave him a kick." "Maybe you didn't notice." "I would have noticed!" "It must've been when you weren't looking." "I was always looking at you." "But Nino, why do you care about these things?" "I don't like it." " Thank goodness." "I was afraid that you were a defender of the family.." "that didn't want strangers to not show respect." "No, I'm not." "But I don't like Sasà." "He's a vulgar man." "He has only his money." " Yes, maybe." "But he amuses me." "And he's not at all unpleasant." "But what are you doing?" "Come here." "I noticed that you like him." "Will you stop now?" "You're getting on my nerves." "Be still!" "And what if I liked him?" "You didn't pull away when he leaned on you." "So what?" " You laughed, you were blushing." "You looked at him in such a way.." "What should I have done?" "Scream?" "Alert Biagio?" "That wasn't necessary!" "You only needed not to look at him so much!" "You know you're a fine one to talk." "You're reproaching me like a jealous husband." "I'm not jealous!" "I'm just telling it like it is." "It's the truth." " The truth!" "You dwell on things that have no importance.." ".. that don't mean a thing." "You're trembling." "You need affection." "Oh, Nino!" "You're a crazy boy." "You who are of my family, must be my first." "Nino!" "Get out, Nino!" "For heaven's sake!" "It's November!" " He's crazy." "It's great." "Come in!" "It's paradise!" " It's pneumonia!" "No.. that's Biagio's place." "Nino!" "Nino." "Change the music." " OK." "Change the music." "We give thanks to God." "Beautiful, isn't it?" "It does 300 per hour." "It has only two seats." "An engine like that is wasted!" "My dear lady, two seats are good enough for me, I have no family." " How nice!" "It's splendid!" " Want to try it out?" "Why not try it out?" "It'll be fun." "Besides, Sasà is a very skilled driver!" "Let's go then and test this marvel." "Uncle Biagio wants to become a widower." "Let's go." "Don't worry, we'll go round Catania and have her report back safe and sound." "She's in your care." "I'll expect you for lunch." "Go!" "Nino." "Are you coming with me to the lodge?" "I don't feel like it now." "Later." "I'll be waiting there." "Shall I read a bit of the paper?" " If you want." " May I, Alfio?" "You know that he won't, forget it." "# ..when I kiss you." "The others don't have to hear.." "the beating of our hearts." "The others don't have to see.." "when I kiss you." "The others don't have to hear.." "the beating of our hearts. #" "Well.. what is it now?" " But do you love me?" "Please!" "Why did you want to do it?" " And you?" "Why did you?" "You do not love me!" "Today, my father is dead." "Ah, you're back!" " From here to Catania just a sprint and even in an hour!" "Will you stay for lunch?" " Thanks, but my mother is waiting for me." "I can't leave her alone." "At night, she goes to bed early while watching the TV." "You have to have patience." "I'm a very affectionate son." "Goodbye!" "You've found the best solution." "What is it?" "You're pale." "What did you do in the car with Sasà?" " Are you crazy?" "You gave me such a fright." " You've made ?" "love, didn't you?" "Watch it or you'll really piss me off." "Is it possible that at your age, you can act like such a kid?" "One never talks about such things!" "You don't talk about it, you just do it!" " Let go of me!" "Rosaria!" " Ssh!" "You'll wake up everyone!" "Let me help." " Thank you, Mrs. Cettina." "Where do I put them?" " In the kitchen." "There we go." " Thank you very much, ma'am." "You never got out of the car?" "No.. well, yes, we went to a café to get a coffee." "Which café?" "I don't know, a café down the street." "I don't remember." "What do you want me to say?" "Why torment me with these questions?" " Because I don't believe you anymore!" "Be quiet!" "They'll all hear you." "You have to help my husband." " Help him?" "That one's an idiot, even if he is my brother." "You know what is the right job for him?" "The prefecture." "The prefecture with the set schedule, with fixed salary.." "and the paperwork!" "You don't understand that we won't be able to support our.." "I'm your sister-in-law." "We can never forget that, Alfio." "Besides, my daughter is now grown." "Yeah, all right." "We'll talk about it another time." "Let me sleep now." "Aren't you ever satisfied?" "I see how you are with everyone: with me, with Sasà and with Uncle Biagio." "This is wonderful!" "Now, I can't even go to bed with my husband!" "But.. what can I do?" "Yes, I know that I was wrong to be nice to you the other night." "I realize it only now." "Didn't I please you?" " Of course, you pleased me." "And now don't act anymore like a jealous boy." "There's no reason to be and besides Sasà is so ordinary.. boring even!" "You said that you liked him!" " You're making my head hurt with interrogations!" "You have to stop!" " I'll tell all!" "All what?" " What you are to me and Sasà." "Tell whoever you want, whoever will believe you." "And even if somebody believed you, they would keep it to themselves.." "because they don't want to know, they don't want change anything." "You'll still be a jealous boy and I'll still be the wife of Uncle Biagio." "I can't take this!" "Tell me what to do!" "I'll kill myself!" "How nice!" "What a great solution." "And who'll give your life back to you later?" "Don't do that." "You need to be more open-minded." "More natural." "We have no other choice." "If I were sure, that you weren't tired of me, I'd wait for you for years." "No one would ever know it!" "You must learn to control yourself." "You can't keep going on like this." "How can I make you understand?" " Let's be together." "Do you really want to?" " I'm dying for it!" "We can't now.." "it's not possible." " Why?" "Why?" "Why?" "One night I entered your room." "You were sleeping deeply, quietly." "I could feel your breath and I was so happy." "I saw you.. removed from everybody, mine alone." "Let's go to the lodge.. now.." "let's go!" " I said no." "Not now." "You're going to see Sasà again tonight!" "At the theater!" " That's not true!" "I'm going to the theater only to please your mother." "These are black ones, I'm wearing the lighter ones." "Definitely not black." "Please, give me yours, just for a little while." "You have to keep an eye on that boy." " You mean Nino?" "He thinks too much." "Heaven help those who stop to think." "Life is made of moments." "You need to discard the bad ones, don't you think?" "Throw them away behind you, forget them." "The ideal would be not to relive them, but Nino isn't able." "Don't you see him?" "He's introverted." "One moment he's in seventh heaven and next he seems to be in a daze." "He should be with his friends, with young people.." "with Mimi and Giulietta.." "who can't take her eyes off of him." "Try to make them be together, to make them see each other more often." "But now, Nino is going to London." " Yes, I know, you're sending him to London." "That's convenient for you and Concetto.." " Cettina!" "What did I say?" "What's the harm in it?" "I'm not shocked, you know." "Indeed, I think you did well." "You can't replace a father, but you can a husband." "You should stop wearing black." " I'm trying not to draw any attention." "What good is it to grow old before your time?" "You see.." "deep down inside.." "Nino is different than the others." "He believes in things, they take hold of him." "He's capable of going to London and turning up here again after a week." "He would like to change the world." "And he's only 17 years old." "Come, look at yourself." "Listen, give me a moment alone." "I must call Sasà." " Yes, of course." "Hello?" "Yes, of course." "How could that be?" "Why not?" "We won't talk about it, as you wish." "Yes." "Yes, sure." "Agreed." "If that one thinks to cheat us, he's mistaken." "Are you sure?" "Oh, God!" "We are.." "looking for a way to fix it all." "Goodbye." "I do not give up." "I'm going forward." "You may do as you wish." "What I mean is that.." "I'll find the money another way." "Sit here."
