lt's my God-given right to -
A lovely man.
A lot like Wallace Beery.
With that beard,
That's some cargo!
Good night, King Vittorio.
Good night, everybody.
This is the Victory Monument.
We used to visit it every day.
at night too.
- l'm going, Mamma.
- Make a good confession.
lf you've had anything to drink,
you can't receive communion.
You can drink water.
You just can't eat anything.
Not even water.
And tell him
that you're a delinquent,
that you upset your mother and father,
and that you answer back.
And that you curse everything,
understand?
Everything!
Who's first?
- ow long since your last confession?
- Christmas.
My God! Mass on days of obligation?
- Except when l had the mumps.
- Do you honor your father and mother?
- Yes.
No, not like that!
White on one side, yellow on the other.
- What's it matter?
- lt's a question of aesthetics.
- Fine.
Now then, do you honor
your father and mother?
Yes, but they don't honor me.
They beat me.
- You must annoy them. Do you tell lies?
- l have to.
Do you covet others' goods?
The small flowers
go in the small vases.
What did you say you covet?
My pal Bragger's got a raincoat
with metal buckles
like the detective's
in the William Powell-Myrna Loy films.
Do you touch yourself?
Do you know St. Louis weeps
when you touch yourself?
Let him weep.
l'm not gonna tell you.
You'll only tell Dad.
Don't tell me
you don't touch yourself.
How can you not, when you see
the woman in the tobacco shop,
as stacked as she is,
and she says...
Export brand?
And the math teacher
who looks just like a lion?
Mother of God!
How can you not touch yourself
when she looks at you that way?
What do you think we come
to see on St. Anthony's day,
when they bless the animals?
The sheep's butts?
See how he's looking at me?
How can l tell him about Volpina
and the time
l pumped up her tires?
l didn't know people kissed like that.
Did you?
With their tongues
going in and out?
l'll ask the questions here.
Go on.
Then there's Gradisca.
Last summer l saw her going
into the movie theater.
lt's not - You see -
l want a wife just like her.
She was alone.
l changed seats.
and again.
And finally...
Looking for something?
l sat there like an a**hole.
l could have jumped
in the harbor.
Father Balosa
can't understand these things.
But since l had to say something,
l said l'd touched myself once,
just a little,
but that l regretted it
immediately.
He was happy with that.
l had to say three Our Fathers,
Hail Marys and Glorias, and that was it.
You're absolved. Three Our Fathers,
Hail Marys and Glorias.
Do you touch yourself?
Just look at those rings
under your eyes.
You obviously do.
Just once.
ln the garage.
- Quit it!
- What?
Always touching me.
- Jean arlow!
- Gradisca!
The tobacco lady's tits!
- The girl at the circus!
- Which one?
With the fishnet stockings.
Aldina!
No, Aldina's mine!
l'll smack your face!
Platoon, attention!
There he is!
Comrades!
ail l/Duce !
We hail llDuce with grateful hearts
and the Fascist salute!
that shows us...
the path of destiny
that Fascist ltaly must follow.
Let me touch him!
l want to touch him!
Longlive ll Duce!
Ninety-nine per cent
of the population are party members.
We have 1 ,200 Young Fascist boys
and 3,000 Young Fascist girls.
Our Fascist hearts beat as one,
but the work
on the maritime front needs attention.
This marvelous enthusiasm makes us
young and yet so old at the same time.
Young, because Fascism
has rejuvenated our blood
with glowing ideals
from ancient times.
All l can say is
Mussolini's got two balls this big!
Today, April 21 st, we celebrate
the birth of Rome, the Eternal City.
What does that mean?
That we must respect the monuments,
the ruins that Rome has left us,
which is what l've done all along,
despite being razzed at night.
Do we not see,
on this glorious, sun-filled day,
that the ltalian sun,
forever free,
is a divine sign
that the heavens are on our side?
Miranda.
Who locked the gate?
- l did.
- Why?
- You know why.
Unlock it.
You've heard what's been going on
in the piazza all day.
Open up. l have business to take care of.
- Nothing doing.
You're staying at home.
What's all this stuff?
lf l wanted to be a widow,
l'd kill you myself.
l'll strangle you
with your neckerchief!
Think l'm scared
of those black-shirted lice?
Give me the key.
Damn it all!
Why is it that
whenever there's a rally,
l have to stay home?
This is the last straw!
One, two, three, four...
These youth are sturdy as rock.
Yes, sturdy as rock.
One, two...
ail l/Duce !
do you wish to marry
And you,
do you wish to marry
Bravo, Ciccio!
Comrades, they speak
of "bread and work,"
but wouldn't
"bread and wine" be better?
- Fernet.
- Coffee.
Just a soft drink.
Three cheers for our comrade!
- Difficult shot.
- Yes, Your Excellency.
- Difficult shot.
- lndeed, Your Excellency.
l wouldn't like
to go up against him.
- Who killed the lights?
- Attilio, light a candle.
Light a candle!
There's a phonograph up above.
What are you saying?
Silence!
- That's the "lnternationale"!
- What's that?
The anthem of subversives.
Where's it coming from?
Where are you hiding,
you scoundrel?
lncredible!
Show yourself, coward!
We await your orders, sir!
Everyone is to go home!
And close your windows!
Get inside, you!
Go home!
What are you doing there?
Go home!
ey! e's up there!
Come home now!
Up in the bell tower!
To arms
We are Fascists
We fight the Communists
GOD - COUNTRY - FAMlLY
You're free to go.
You can go home.
You see?
We Fascists aren't all that bad.
We didn't harm
a single hair on your head.
More like a cozy little
kaffeeklatsch.
Good night, sonny boy.
Bring him here.
Take off your hat.
Sorry, it's a habit.
Even at home.
Why don't you give
the Roman salute?
l didn't know it was mandatory.
l know nothing about politics.
Sit down.
So you know nothing
about politics.
Yet you've been heard to say,
"lf Mussolini keeps on like this,
l really don't know."
What did you mean by
"l really don't know"?
l never said anything like that.
l generally only talk about my work.
Perhaps l said,
"l really don't know
how politics work.
Was it a threat?
Certainly not.
- Lack of faith in Fascism?
- No. Why?
- Or perhaps subversive propaganda?
- No, l'd have no reason.
And you know nothing
about the phonograph either?
Phonograph?
Don't get smart!
Answer!
l was asleep.
These guys woke me up.
l didn't even have time
to put on my tie.
Your tie...
or your anarchist's neckerchief?
What neckerchief?
