"THE SHE-WOLF" "Hi!" "Have you come for me?" "So, we still have to fix this and that.." "Don Pietro, can I have a few words?" "You can have 40." "Wait a moment." "Test the lights, OK?" "All in place." " Let's go to the store." "Don Pietro.." "will you do me a favor?" "Let's see!" "Would you do me a favor too?" "Why not?" " Come inside!" "Go take inventory on the other side." "Come, come!" "Come!" "What do you need?" "I was thinking that my daughter could be Saint Agatha." "Jesus!" "And the people?" "Want them to scratch your eyes out?" "There are 30 women bringing daughters. 30!" "Don't you believe it!" "Besides, Maricchia is the prettiest." "And you, if you'd like, could do me this favor." "Want to find her a husband?" "This way she'll be out of your hair." "What?" "I don't need to marry her off to do what I please." "I know!" "I know!" "Hey!" "Don't start that again!" "First do your duty.." "and later we'll talk." "Giovanna, what do you think?" "Shall we look at those shirts?" "Fine, let's look at them." "No!" "I won't go before Don Antonio like this!" "You can see all!" "She has more sense than you!" "And if there's no petticoat, what can I do?" "What will I do?" "Let's try this pillowcase!" " Good idea, a pillowcase." "Lift your leg!" "Higher!" "I can't walk, it's too tight!" " Just walk slowly." "But Santina!" "What does this girl want?" "Always crying, you look like the Petrolio Madonna!" "I want to be Saint Agatha!" "If you go with this sallow face, they won't even look at you." "Eh!" "Ah, that's it!" "Now it's better!" "Mom!" "No, Mom, I won't!" "But you're the best of all of them." "March!" "Go on!" "No!" "I'm not coming!" " Don't act like an idiot!" "But I'm ashamed!" "Of what?" "Of those lousy bums?" "Get going!" "Don Antonio!" "Go on." "Next one." "Not bad!" "I like this one." "Me too." "I like her too." "What do you think?" "Don Antonio?" "Put them to one side." "Look!" "When the devil appears, he comes as a saint!" "Mind your business, more dead than alive!" "All you need is a pretty face!" "Shameful!" " Is she the boss here too?" "There's Saint Agatha!" "There she is!" "This is the right Saint Agatha!" "Don Anto!" "Just look here!" "What do you think?" "Yes, of course." "She has some nerve!" " Disgusting!" "Come, go on!" "Well, now that we have the priest's consent, we can definitely choose her." "She'll be fine but.." "She's HER daughter!" "But, who will believe her a saint?" "What does it matter, if Mom.." "She's a good girl!" "Mr. Mayor, what do you say?" " Agnese!" "Undoubtedly, Agnese is a beautiful girl, eh?" "Yes, but Maricchia is more spiritual, more saintlike!" "Everyone will be against it." "For my part, this is Saint Agatha!" "Go on or you'll lose your place." "A husband for my daughter!" "Grant my prayer!" "Tobacco work!" "Tobacco, Saint Agatha!" "Well?" "What do you want?" " Nothing." "Let's move on!" "Don Antonio, shall we start the attack on the carriage?" "Go on!" "Give the signal!" "What an effort!" "What happens now?" "Nothing!" "Tonight we dance at Salavatore's." "But where do you come from?" "From the fort!" " Yeah?" "Come to chase girls, eh?" "Well, I've already found one." "Yeah?" "Who's that?" "Don't you understand?" " You don't waste time, do you?" "Well?" "Let's go dance at this Salavatore's then." "Later, OK?" "Are you ditching me?" " Oh, no!" "We'll meet there." "Alright?" "Why can't I come to the party?" " Because you can't!" "Everyone will go dancing tonight." "Not you!" "Do as I say and enough!" "Trash!" "Come home!" "Shall we dance?" "Why didn't you wait for me?" "I never thought you'd really come." "Go call Cesarina." "What do you want, Don Pietro?" "Come here." "Keep me company." "The She-Wolf is beautiful." "A beautiful wicked beast." "Disgusting!" "Bye, Nanni." "You live there?" "When do we meet again?" " I'll look for you on Sunday." "I'll wait for you behind the church at 10." "TOBACCO FACTORY" "You like soldiers?" "How should I know?" "Not me!" "I never could look at those who wear a uniform." "And you?" "You like soldiers?" "I don't like soldiers either." "And yet there's somebody who likes them a lot." "Who as soon as she sees one, throws herself at him!" "And a nice, tall, blonde soldier, would you like him?" "300 lire fine for you and 200 for you!" "But she started it!" " 400 lire!" "That'll teach you to argue!" "Go!" "Silence!" "Enough!" "Work!" "This is all I needed too!" "You believe me now?" "No blabbing, I have to check!" "Well?" "Now that you've seen, can I go?" "Come here and strip." "Are you different from the others?" "You must really like to waste time." "Well?" "Ah, so this is the "check"!" "I thought so!" "Come to me tonight." "You promised." "We'll see Don Pietro." " But when?" "Depends on you, because tomorrow I won't come here to work again!" "Who offended you?" " No!" "I don't want to be around Giovanna." "Either she goes or I go." "How did that get into your head?" "What did she do?" "Are you the boss or not?" " Yes." "Then.. show me that you love me." "Oh, yes, yes!" "Mom, I'm going or I'll miss Mass." "What will you do?" " Go!" "I'm staying here!" "You feel bad?" " Oh, no!" "Go on." "Saint Agatha!" "Will you grant my prayer?" "I've never seen a saint so sullen." "The saints hardly ever look down." "That's better." "So, will you grant my prayer?" "What do you want?" " May I walk with you?" "I'm going home." " Then, I'll go with you." "You remember me?" "On the feast day, you were on the arch." "You saw me then." "You know how many times I thought of you since?" "Maybe.." "Look, I had a date this morning." "And I left it for you." "Then, I'll go now!" " No, no." "This is better." "Don Pietro?" "What?" "Do you have a nice pair of stockings like a lady's?" "What's happening?" "Getting married?" "Hurry up, Don Pietro, I'm in a rush!" "What's your name?" "Maria." "But they call me Maricchia." "Maricchia?" "Then I can call you that too." "Everybody does." "I'm Nanni." "Nanni Lasca." "I have to go now, I'm almost there." "Then you really want to get rid of me!" "No.." "I've never walked with a man before." "Don Pietro, I'll pay you at the end of the month." "I'm going to try it on." "And you, why don't you get ready to go to church?" "What beautiful legs you have!" " Leave me alone, Don Pietro." "Why don't you come and stay with me?" "What will you do now the factory's closed?" "Go hang myself!" "You're screwy!" "With me, you'd be a lady!" "Be good, Don Pietro." "One day, I'll pay you back for everything." "I'm ready, I'm leaving." "Excuse me, eh?" "Excuse me." "Yeah, yeah, go!" "Open up, Don Pietro." "Why did you fire me?" "What did I do?" "Nothing to do with it!" "Go away!" "You have put me in the street!" "It was you!" "Cut it out!" "Who put that in your head!" "Let me pass!" "I'll kill you!" " Stop!" "Fight somewhere else!" "Go away, all of you!" " But why?" "But get out!" " She'll pay for this!" "Are you in such a hurry?" " It's late." "We can see each other again?" "To see each other again, one must have a reason." " But I do!" "What is it?" "Well, well..." "Well, I feel good with you." "And I almost, a little.." "think I'm in love with you." "Really?" "Why?" "Don't you believe it?" "You've known me so little." "I know, but I love you." "Look, why don't you do this:" "Go to your mother and ask her if you can stay out a little longer." "I'm afraid she'll say no." "Who do you live with?" "With my mother." "Your mother is the one they call the She-Wolf?" "Yes." "Why?" "No reason." "Shall I go ask her then?" "Go then." "I'll wait for you here." "Mom!" "Mom!" "Hey, what are you doing there?" "Come on, get in." "We can go for a nice ride." "You've been neglecting me for a while!" " Knock it off, Raffaele!" "If you're waiting for the army, look alive!" "What do you mean?" "I saw your soldier going with Maricchia, if you're interested." "I get it!" "Nanni!" "Nanni!" "Where do you go?" "Why didn't you wait for me?" "I did wait." "You didn't come." "What did Maricchia tell you?" "Did she say something about me?" "Why don't you answer?" "Maricchia's just a kid." "Who knows what you're thinking?" "Your daughter didn't say anything." " What's with you then?" "Let me go." "Let me go do my duty." "You must tell me what is it and look me in the face." "It's better for everyone if we separate." "Have you found another woman and don't like me anymore?" "Look at me!" "I know that you like me and I'm never wrong about these things." "Yeah, I like you but we must never see each other again!" "No!" "You're not going." "I've never met one like you and I won't let you go!" "Tell me the truth!" "It's no use, you won't understand." "You only think of yourself!" "What does that matter?" "Who should I think of?" "Maricchia?" "Tell me!" "Why?" "Is it because of Maricchia, you don't want me?" "Yes, it's because of Maricchia." "I love her honestly." "You see why I don't want to see you again?" "She's a child." "How can you like her more than me?" "Now I realize what you are:" "you're a beast!" "Luckily, Maricchia doesn't seem like your daughter." "Farewell, Nanni." "Maybe we'll meet again." "No." "Now you know everything, go away and don't come back." "Why do you look at me like that?" "Let go, mom." "You've become a woman and I've become old." "What are you saying?" "You look younger than me." "It's almost time to get a husband." "And who wants to marry me?" "If someone wanted to, would you do it?" "There is one who asked." "Who?" "A soldier from the fort, named Nanni Lasca." "When did you see him?" " Aren't you pleased?" "But when did he tell you?" " Don't worry, Nanni loves you." "But I hardly know him." "I've seen him once and I didn't think he wanted me." " Why?" "He left without saying a word." "How?" "Yes, when he found out that I'm your daughter." "It has nothing to do with me." "You like Nanni?" "Yes!" " So you're sure you love him?" "If he wants me, I'm happy." "Tomorrow we'll go to talk to him together." "All will be fine." "You'll see." "I don't know what you have in mind, but don't get Maricchia involved!" "I'm not, Nanni!" "If I weren't here, you'd want Maricchia?" "Ah, things are as they are and there's no cure for it." "She loves you." "Don't forget that." "Want to see her?" "She's outside." "You're the one who brought her." "You!" "Who are you afraid of?" "Me?" "I won't give you any trouble." "I'll stay with my sister in Ginosa." "You two will never see me again." "I don't believe it." "I don't believe a word you say!" "I just want my daughter to have a different life from mine." "I've told you all." "I love Maricchia." "Then why not go to her?" "She's waiting." "I'm going home." "What do you think of walking back with her?" "Goodbye, Nanni." "10 meters of this then." "So you're getting married, eh?" "Oh, nice, nice, Maricchia!" "Saint Agatha's specialty is husbands." "Very nice." "And when do you get married?" "As soon as the cards are done." " Good!" "Come here for a bit!" "I have to choose the stuff you need?" "Take a look at these towels." "For the money, I thought I'd do half now, half later.." "Half when?" "I think there's another debt you owe me." "This is not the time, Don Pietro!" "Yeah, there's always an excuse ready." "You're too crafty for my nature!" "I said it's not the time." "Enough!" "Now I'm the one who says, "Enough"." "We start by you no longer taking this stuff on credit." "I pay with money." "Right!" "To draw a man to your house, you manage to find the money!" "It's you who's marrying and not your daughter!" "Some things you shouldn't joke about!" "Maricchia!" "Maricchia!" "Why are you crying for?" "Why are you crying?" "I'm not marrying Nanni!" "You do what I say!" "No, I don't want to marry him!" " Why?" "Why?" "Answer your mother!" " You know better than me!" "If you don't marry him, you can leave." "And never step foot in this house again!" "Ticket!" "To Ginosa." "Return ticket?" " One way." "Isn't your daughter getting married tomorrow?" "How much?" " 280." "Congratulations!" " Thanks!" "Congratulations!" "See you this evening for a toast!" "Come on, let's leave the newlyweds alone!" "Let's go, it's late!" "Good night!" "Congratulations!" "Good night!" "A baby boy!" "Good night!" "No, don't turn them on." "I'll go see." "What do you want?" "What do you want here?" "My sister didn't want to have me." "She said she had no room." "But you can't stay here!" "This is my house!" "I know this is your house.." "But this was not our agreement!" " Where should I go?" "In the streets?" "You won't even know I'm here." "I'll put my mattress over there." "I won't bother you." "If you don't want it, I won't bother you." "Maricchia!" "You're starting now too?" " I'm afraid." "But I love you, you mustn't be afraid of anyone." "Understand?" "No one!" "Maricchia, what is it?" "Nothing, I wanted to see you." "Out with it, speak!" "What is it?" "Don't you understand?" "A child?" "Maricchia!" "Stay here." "In 15 minutes, I'm done!" "We'll go home together." "This calls for a toast, right?" "What shall we name it?" "Cesare!" "You like Cesare?" "What if it's a girl?" "I'm sure it'll be a boy." "How hot it is today!" "Give me a puff." "Why did you throw it away?" " I didn't notice it!" "You did it on purpose?" " What for?" "Are we going to bed?" "Nanni!" " What do you want?" "I can't sleep, stay a little." " Leave me alone!" "What is it?" "Nanni!" "Nothing!" "I bumped into a chair!" "Do you love me?" "You still like me?" "Tell me." "Lend me your bike for a minute?" "Where are you going?" " Will you lend it?" "Take it." "May I?" "Come, sit here." "Where's my mother?" "I don't know, I haven't seen her." "Lombardo, Elena!" "Devincenzi, Rosa!" "Mainardi, Rosalia!" "Sabini, Anna!" "Gravini, Bruna!" "Pasqualini, Maria!" "2000 lire." "The rest went to the debt owed to Don Pietro." "But.. what can I do?" "Can't you let me work another weekend?" "Damn!" "Is it such news that every year we close now?" "We're closing!" "But I could help with the shipments." "Go on, go away!" "Move it!" "Sciaccalone, Teresa!" "Maricchia!" "It's nothing, it's passing now." "Let me be, thanks." "But couldn't your mother take the bag?" "Or was it too great an effort?" " Let's not talk about it." "What's the matter?" "Out of my way!" "What is it, you damn hens?" "She's sick, poor thing." "She should be brought home." "Let's go then!" "I'll bring her home in my car." "Thank you, I can handle it." " Oh, no!" "Come!" "Get back!" "Get back!" " Cosimino!" "Come, I'll take you with my car." "The bags of these two." "Go ahead." "I'll be right back." " Yes, Sir." "I could kill her!" "Kill her!" "Maricchia is too good!" "Too good!" "Here!" " OK." "Cosimino, go with her." "Look, come here." " What do you want?" "I like you a lot!" " And I like you not at all!" "At night, all I do is dream of you." "Now that the factory is closed, if you want to.." "Hands off, Don Pietro!" "You're as ridiculous as if you were 20!" "Right." "You need a 20 year old, like Nanni Lasca." "Bye Don Pietro, see you in November." "Cosimino!" "Cosimino!" "Let's go!" "I have to go to Antonina's now." "Everybody is being born today!" "What are you doing then?" " I told you, I'm not going upstairs." "But you can't leave her alone." "Oh, finally!" " How is she?" "Is it born?" "He's born, it's a boy." "Well, I have to go now." "Have you seen him?" "No." "Nini, Nini of mine." "What do you want here?" "Maricchia!" "Go away!" "Go back to her!" " What do you mean?" "It's true, isn't it?" "I've been quiet for so long." "I hoped it wasn't true but no more!" "Let me see my baby!" "Get out!" "Go away!" "I never want to see you or her again!" "And as soon as I can, I'm going with him out of this house!" "Poor, Nini." "She's gone crazy." "Shut up!" "Don't come near me!" "Let her go, Nanni." "You're the cause of it all!" "You've no respect for nothing!" "Nothing!" "Nanni!" "Maricchia!" "Maricchia!" "Forgive me." "I understood nothing." "Nanni..." "Vinegar." "Here, keep stirring in the same direction." "What are you doing here?" " Nothing!" "Piera!" "Get me the cinnamon." "And go into kitchen and say your rosary." "The She-Wolf." "Go!" "What do you want?" "I'm here." "I'm keeping my promise." "What happened?" "I left them all!" "I don't know why you're here." "I don't want to know." "It's all the same to me." "Piera!" "Take away Cesarina's stuff from the room." "Hurry!" "She's staying here!" "Got it?" "This way." "Come inside." "What does she want?" "She's staying here in my house." "And who doesn't like it can get the hell out." "Bring something to drink." "Oh!" "Stupid hens!" "Come here all of you!" "Starting today, there'll be a change." "Go on, kiss her!" "I want no noise, I want to be happy." "Do it!" "I swear." "I'm going in alone, it's better." "What do you want?" "I came to see if you could let me do something." "We're not doing anything ourselves." "But I.. need to work." "Couldn't you.." "It'll open up again in a month, but right now there's nothing." "Thank you." "How's the baby?" "Fine." "Nothing!" "I told you." "You have to wait til November." "Don't be afraid, I'll try the yard again and see if they'll give me an advance." "And when the road ends?" "I'll find something else." "In a month, it'll open up again." "I want to work!" " We need work, Don Pietro!" "Open up, Don Pietro!" "I need to work, I've a son!" "Shut up!" "Now that we're letting you in, don't shout and don't cause a fuss!" "Open it!" "The She-Wolf!" "Jesus, Mary, help me!" "Silence!" "Palucchi, Angela!" "Here!" "Silence!" "Go home if you've been called instead of adding to the confusion here!" "Locurto, Gemma!" "Why is the She-Wolf here?" " Don't you see?" "She's now the mistress!" "Silence!" "Silence!" "Acting bossy too!" "She'll end up cuckolding you!" "Baldi, Valeria!" "Vassalia, Paolina!" "Silence!" "Piccoli, Adelaide!" "Auricchio, Luisa!" "I bet they won't call us!" "Whore!" "Whore!" "Macchia, Concetta!" "Minoli, Valeria!" "Bollati, Maria!" "Simoni, Pia!" "Maccarello, Gesira!" "The names that I'll now read can go work at the factory in Campidano!" "I'm sorry, that's all!" "And if you don't like it, no matter!" "That's impossible!" " Antonia, Calcutta!" "It's she who gave our names!" " Yes, the She-Wolf!" "Silence!" "Riverata, Dominici!" "Enough!" "Afiglio, Mimma!" "Asichecò, Giovanna!" "I wouldn't go there even if you killed me!" "Piece of trash!" "Don't run your mouth or you'll be sorry!" "Hags!" "Yes, here in the factory." "But be quick, hurry!" "Yea, at least four!" "Thank you, Marshal!" "Incoronato, Maricchia!" "You wanted to send me away from Nanni, eh?" "Damn you!" "And you're my mother!" "But I won't go far from home!" "Then die of hunger!" "You and your child!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "Come here!" " Leave me alone!" "It's my business!" "Your business but my damage!" "Go!" "Cosimino!" "Honk!" "Go forward!" "Why don't you leave?" "Drive over them!" "God!" "It was you who started all this mess!" "Me?" "It was you who wanted fewer workers!" "Right!" "But how did you pick them?" "Out of your own revenge?" "Can it!" "They'll all ruin me!" "Ruin me!" "Hurry up!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "Get back!" "Back!" "Are you crazy?" "Stop!" "Get back!" "Get back!" "Get out!" "Get back!" "What have you done?" "Who was it?" "Tell me!" "At the factory, they wanted to send me to Campidano!" " Who did that?" "My mother!" "They went crazy and the police came!" "I swear this is the last thing she does!" "You put the whole town against me with all its nuts!" "What are they doing?" "Pray!" "You pray!" "Don't show yourself!" "They'll tear down my house because of you!" "I've always said you were no good!" "You're afraid!" "Afraid of a few women!" "Pig and coward!" "Get out!" "You leave!" "You're my ruin, that's what you are!" "Get out and go!" " Yeah, I'll go." "But I'm going on my own because you couldn't throw me out!" "And I'm not afraid of those wretches!" "Why did I put this witch in my house?" "Why?" "Why?" "Disgusting!" "Put down that rock!" "I'll throw it at your head if you move!" "Now, we'll deal with you!" "You hate me because I'm beautiful!" "And men like me!" "And you're ugly as beasts!" "It's you who runs after our men!" "And want to send us far from home!" "And you even run after your daughter's husband!" "Ugly trash!" "Tell them if it's me who runs after you!" "Tell them you like me more than her!" "Tell it to these sluts!" "Tell them!" "I don't ever want to see you before me!" "Ugly damn bitch!" " No!" "You hear what you are?" "Get back!" "Get back!" "Make way!" "Shut it!" "She's a criminal!" "Let me through!" "Get back!" "Get back!" "Back or I'll shoot!" "Fire!" "It's burning!" "Run!" "Fire!" "Mom!" "Mom!" "Come inside and get me, if you can!" "Come and get me!"
