Let's have a feel.

I'll stick my head in there

... and the other grits his teeth...

He's drunk, not up to anything

What is it, rookie?

I only love you

He bought me when I was twelve

Let's have no knifings over a ring

You came at the right time

When I'm with him, I think of you

Greetings, Garcia

Greetings, Jose Maria

Long time, no see

Where've you been?

-Doing time

What's the score?

A big shipment

English pistols, tobacco

It's dangerous

That's my view,...

...for what it's won'th

Our back up?

Me, Jose Maria Hinojosa,...

...Tempranillo

Agreed?

Agreed

We're invited to

Lucas Domeque's farm

Tell us who will love us

Tell us who will betray us

Your husband does

He sleeps with others, but loves me

Flee bitter answers in vain.

The cards don't lie. Ever

The other is a woman

of passion, dangerous

Look...

...if I flirt,...

...he gets into a jealous rage.

He's my man

You love the matador

Everywoman in Andalusia

loves Lucas

A message from the governor

Gentlemen,...

...your attention, please

I have news of the utmost interest

The King is pleased to issue

the following proclamation:...

...,On this day of

...my august wife, was delivered

Of a healthy princess

Heaven has blessed our union,

fulfilling the desire...

...of all my subjects for

a direct heir to the throne

HRH will tomorrow receive Holy...

...Baptism in the Royal Chapel,...

...and will be christened

Maria Isabel Luisa.,

Long live Isabel II!

What's your name?

Carmen

I'll kill my next bull

speaking your name

Careful, you'll lose her

Tell her husband

You can't fool me,

you're her husband

The woman who loves a Chinaman...

...has no pride...

...for the Chinaman smokes opium, ...

...and causes trouble

among the neighbours, ...

...and causes trouble

among the neighbours

Soldiers!

Take cover!

Come on! Take up positions!

Quick! Quick!

They're from Villadiego! Run for it!

-Come on, come on!

Damn and bugger it!

Bales first

Come on, quick!

Help me, please

Don't be an idiot!

Finish the scum off!

-Fire!

Leave him!

Leave him, I say!

Idiot!

You'll be killed

Help me

Help me!

Nobody'll recognize him

Let's go!

See if there's any food

Cards, wine and tits

to lighten the heart

While I play, I ruminate

Your friend betrayed us

Only tobacco here

That Tempranillo of yours is evil

He only works for himself

He only wants to get on

All he wants is for Big Nose

to pin a medal on his chest

He's an evil one

He's sold us down the river

Shut up

See to the mules

Carmen.

-What?

We can't live on air

Go and see that man

The Englishman?

MacGregor?

Perhaps he'll have something

Even if it's his blood to drink

You're a devil

Yes

Spades

Here

What?

No hug?

Bring something back,

but not with the sweat...

...of another man on you.

Especially an English mars

If you want...

...to cheat and rob,

a woman like Carmen is an asset

And careful with your kisses

You know what to do, but if you

sleep with him, don't enjoy it

Those tits are mine,

and nobody else's

Off you go and be careful

You don't like it,...

...but One-Eye does

Halt!

A message from Carmen

Come up

Look what's coming

instead of the Englishman

A bird with two mules

Dimwits! Taking me

for a la-di-da cow

Beat it!

Don't want to see you for dust

You,...

...hands on your head

Get his pistol

So...

...like her arse, eh?

I told you he had balls

Idiot!

You still have time

to bet, Dancaire

I know you've got clubs

You know how to bluff

But you've no chance with clubs

Spades.

-Fine

What did he f*** like, Carmen?

How long did he take to come?

How did he do it? Like a rabbit?

Or a bull?

Carmen

Come here

Let's see if...

...you bring me luck

This will,

if you keep it on your head

Come here

My Carmen has a lively p*ssy

Your play, One-Eye

Jack of Clubs

Things are changing.

Now it's spades

Deal me in

You? Playing cards?

What's come over you?

Maybe he's unlucky in love

Take that card from...

...under your arse

I don't need to cheat

I said show that card

Relax, One-Eye's done nothing

He's jealous. Don't tempt me

You want my whore,

she's yours for four ,reales,

Looking for trouble?

Come on, then

Calm down, you two.

Put your knives away

Stay out of this

Jose...

-It's not your fight. Stand aside

Where were you born?

From your mother's arse?

Bastard...

...suckled on putrid milk

I'll slash your face

Then rip open your guts

Scum

You're going straight to hell

Who are you wishing luck to?

Whose widow do you want to be?

Filthy Basque

Damned affairs!

Maybe she really is a jinx

Here, take it

Take it!

I won't wish you luck,

you can't handle it

We'll have to bury him

Isn't this better?

His time had come

Yours will, too

My time has come already

And yours

This smuggler's life is over

You'll be my wife, mine only,...

...for life

What do you want?

Children?

Me with a brat clinging to my tit?

It was then I bumped into you, sir

First near Montilla,

then in Cordoba

Carmen kept your watch

She also wanted your money

and that ring you wear

Said it was magic and

attached great importance...

...to owning it

Another man occupied her thoughts

Walk down the street

and forget tonight's events

My watch!

Best forgotten

Is he your lover?

Who?

The matador

Are you lovers?

I wish we were

I forbid you to see him

Careful, forbidden fruits

taste sweeter

Forgive me!

Please, Carmen, forgive me!

I will not

It bears your name, Carmen

Look, there's your Jose

Pierce me

Run me through

Moan with me

Let's shout in unison

Hey, where are you going?

Who is it? What do they want?

Get dressed

Who's this lout?

Go

What bad luck!

The woman I desire in my arms,...

...and her lover turns up

Bruno, Daniel, Paco, out!

Everybody out!

See...

...I've spared your life

I kill bulls

I don't break the hearts of men...

...who love the same woman

What are you waiting for?

Lucas is my lover!

Shoot, if you dare,...

...or go!

Swear you won't do it again

No

Swear you'll only ever be mine

No

Carmen,...

...I'm begging you

I'll forget the past

Have pity, Carmen

Let me be saved and save yourself...

...with me.

-l don't love you

I won't let you deceive me

with another man

Don't strangle me...

...or blow my head off

Bury me in the wood.

-l don't want to kill you

I just want you to come

with me and be my wife

No, no, no!

No!

I'm sick of threats

I'm sick of seeing you.

Go. Leave me alone

For the last time, you witch,...

...come with me

No, never

Never!

Carmen,...

...I beg you

I've killed for you,

and will again,...

...to keep you

I want nothing of you!

Nothing to do with you!

I hate myself for loving you

Dare to kill me

Kill me or let me go

And live with memories?

I'll follow you only to death,

I won't live with you

Kill Carmen

Kill her

Her body was still alive for me

Now...

...at last, Carmen belonged to me

At dawn, I gave myself up

I'm a man of letters,...

...a coiner of words and phrases
