What's the difference between him
and human beings?
- Do you understand...
- This is fundamental!
- Do we have to wait here?
- Yes, there's the self service here.
- I'm not hungry.
- Steak, salad and mineral water.
- Amilcare, did you order bucatini?
- They don't have!
They don't?
Amelia, I'm here!
Please,
a cappuccino with no froth.
I understood!
- Are you the one with the dog?
- Which dog?
The one that started whining
when the pope died.
- I'm not!
- You don't want to tell it to me, uh?
Barbara, let me bite your bottom!
Dear girl, what else do you want?
I blessed you, now go.
Miss, he is Gerolamo di Trivento, vero ?
Yes. He saved my mother,
she was going to die.
I brought him a picture of her.
He touched it and she recovered.
They say that when he's praying
he raises himself from the floor
and he reaches the crucifix
near the ceiling.
The one who's with him is a scientist,
a parapsychologist.
Is this one ok?
No, the pink one.
I apologize for my incredulity but,
is it true that that monk can fly?
It may happen. It's called levitation
and it's rare in western countries.
- Did you actually see him?
- No.
- Here she is!
- Bravo! That one, give it to me.
Dear viewers,
Merry Christmas.
Today's "We are proud to present" show
and it will not just have
extraordinary people.
We will have the orchestra...
That one got on very quickly,
she's a friend of the general manager!
this band is composed by the
Here they are, entering in our studio.
A total of 620 years!
We might call it the hundred-year-old band!
Immediately after them
we'll have...
the ex don... I don't know if I
can call him an "ex don" (ex priest).
I'm not an ex don, I'm still a don!
What is she saying?
...that threw away his priest clothes
to make his love dream come true.
Then we will interview the man who's
who want to become
even more beautiful.
famous professor
Carl Rudolph Nordt.
great aestethical surgeon.
- What does he say?
- My german...
and I did once each 4 months.
But watch how much I changed!
It was worth!
I'll take off my bandage during the show
and when you will know my age
you'll say it's a miracle!
and it's thanks to this man!
Maestro, my name's Esmeralda,
will you give me an autograph?
Me too I was kidnapped,
but I didn't have a finger cut...
- The cappuccino.
- I said with no froth!
- This is how I got it!
- What happened?
The manager didn't pay the hotel bill,
so we spent 10 days locked
in a hotel room! Do you remember, Amelia?
Why didn't you ask for help to anyone,
after you were released?
I walked all night in the country...
Why do you always have to tell lies?
Did you do something? Did you look for someone?
Where's the dressing room?
I have to iron the dress!
The electrician, does he have the special light?
Otherwise who could see us acting?
I remember everything.
Are you married ?
No!
I'm Barbara from Teleflash.
I'd like to ask a few questions to
Ginger and Fred.
Did you break up in the '40s?
What do you do now? What will you dance?
What do you think of today's dances?
Why did you accept to come to this show?
- Why tap?
- An intelligent question.
It's high time to talk seriously about tap.
Tap isn't just a dance.
It's something more... more...
Explain!
Me too I think that tap is something...
something... more!
Yes, something more.
Is it clear?
What do you mean?
- Tap wasn't a dance.
- What was it?
some kind of wireless telegraph.
Another lie?
were not allowed to talk.
If they were caught talking,
the warden...
would lash them.
So...
what would the black slave do?
He would communicate
with his workmate this way.
"Beware, the warden!"
"I've got a knife"
"Let's kill him."
Or.
"I love you."
"I love you too"
Very interesting!
A language of love and death!
Who did you learn it from?
I even wanted to write a book about it!
We danced tap for 15 years
and you never told me!
It's a very beautiful thing!
- Those husbands!
- He's not my husband.
- No?
Thanks for the interview,
it was really interesting.
The book was published three months ago,
why are you presenting it today?
- I see.
- Did you have big problems?
- I wouldn't say big.
Please talk about the relation between
the writer and an important politician.
He was the one who wanted this show
but I will deny what I just said!
- Camilla, what big tits you have!
- They're still the usual ones!
"To Xegna with enthusiasm". Thanks.
But what's the rest?
"Hoping she won't forget about me"
- And this number?
- My phone number.
Nostalgia is always there.
And you?
No, thanks, maestro.
I've read it already.
It's very nice, modern,
it's a pity that the ending...
Were you disappointed?
Well... I don't know.
The beginning is so good,
while the second part instead...
Like this?
Let's not exxagerate, like this.
- How would you want the ending to be?
- This is a great honour.
The story ends on a river, right?
- And you don't like rivers?
- I like them a lot.
- Then? I don't get it.
- It's a life symbol, isn't it?
The river is a symbol, isn't it?
- Yes, a symbol!
- Bravo!
At that point we should have...
- Confess, you're a writer.
- You're flattering me!
I immediately understood that
you're not just a keen reader.
I'm interested, I'm writing notes.
Please suggest a different ending,
maybe in a second edition...
What do you write about?
No, I'm not a writer!
When I'm in the mood,
I write some jokes.
how do they call it...
aphorisms in rhyme.
Rhyme is a litte obsolete.
Yes, but it helps the reader.
Sure! Come on,
Let us hear something.
- No.
- The best things are unconscious.
I try to catch...
some reflections...
between female body and
desires men have for it.
Ah... the specular reflection!
Impromptu isn't the easiest way.
A professor told me it's somewhat
Marziale style.
- F***!
- Let us enjoy something.
It's becoming an exam.
but I'm afraid to disappoint you
these are just jokes...
Pippo, we should go.
We still have to do the rehearsal...
I'm talking with writers!
She's right because we still have
to try the tap.
I have to to make a little introduction
Did you see the dwarfs in the morning?
Yes, funny!
- I could not help...
- I'm curious!
- You want to gratify me.
- You are gratifying us.
- Do you know them?
- Yes, some.
- I can't judge.
- Poetry is something difficult for me.
Butt of a dwarf,
this cock is waiting for you
It's him! It's Marziale !
It's him!
- With a little bit of Orazio.
- No, Marziale.
It's understood that
it's waiting for the dwarf to grow up.
To me it sounds a bit like Giovanni Pascoli.
May we go?
The dick says Hello.
