Yes, Salvatore di Vita.
You mean you don't know him, Miss?
That's right, and I'm his mother.
I've been calling from Sicily,
all day long.
I see he's not there.
Could you please give me
his number?
656 22 056.
Thank you. Goodbye.
It's useless to call.
He's busy. God knows where he is.
He won't even remember.
Forget it.
He hasn't been here for 30 years.
You know what he's like.
He'll remember.
I'm sure he will. I know him
better than you do.
If he finds out we didn't tell him,
he'll be angry.
I'd like to talk
I'm his mother.
Salvatore what time is it?
It's late.
Sorry, I couldn't phone
to say I'd be late.
Go back to sleep.
Your mother phoned.
She thought I was someone else.
What did you tell her?
Nothing, I didn't want
to disappoint her. We had a long chat.
She said you've not visited her for
30 years. She must come to see you.
She called just to say that?
No, she said someone's died.
Someone called Alfredo.
The funeral is tomorrow.
Who is he? A relative?
No go back to sleep.
How can I say Mass with this boy?
Toto!
Thank God for that!
How do I have to tell you?
Without the bell, I don't know where I am.
Always asleep!
What do you do at night? Eat?
Father Adelfio, at home
we don't even eat at lunchtime.
The vet says that's why I'm tired.
I'll tell you why you're tired.
Think I don't know?
Run along now, I've something to do.
- Can I come with you?
- No, you can't.
Toto, go away!
Alfredo!
You can start.
Here we go again.
The frame!
THE LOWER DEPTHS
One day, everything will be ours.
We'll go away together.
To live the good life
where no one knows us.
Stop dreaming.
You don't love me any more.
Why?
100 lire! Pure nylon!
You mustn't come here.
How many times
do I have to tell you?
You're only little.
If there's a fire,
you'll go up in smoke.
"And turn into a piece of charcoal."
You've a big mouth.
One of these days I'll cut it off.
Like that.
Can I have it?
Please can I have it?
Well, can I or not?
Are you deaf or something?
I have to splice it back before I return
the film. You're such a pest!
Then why didn't you splice these
before you returned the films?
Well, sometimes I can't find
the right place, so they stay here.
They kiss too much, anyway.
- Then I can have these.
- Now you listen to me.
Let's make a deal,
before I kick you up the arse.
- All these are yours, a present.
- Thank you.
But first, you don't come here again.
Second, I keep them here. Get it?
OK, so we're agreed. Now, scram!
What kind of deal is that? If they're
mine, how come you keep them?
Don't come back or I'll thrash you!
"Shoot first, think later.
"This is no job for weaklings,
cuckolds and traitors.
"Hey, you bastard!
Hands off that gold!
"Stay away from me,
you dirty swine,
"or I'll smash your face in!"
If the war's over,
why doesn't Dad come back?
He'll come back, you'll see.
One of these days.
I don't remember him.
Where is Russia?
and years to come back.
Go to bed, Toto. It's late.
You can fool your mother,
but not me.
Get your piece of paper
and join the police, you little wretch!
Come on!
Well? How much is 5 x 5?
Quiet!
The five times table, you dimwit!
1 x 5 = 5.
2 x 5 = 10.
3 x 5 = 15.
4 x 5 = 20.
5 x 5?
Quiet!
Boccia!
For the last time
- 5 x 5?
- Christmas!
I've a ticket,
I want to see the film.
Get down. You can't stay here.
Go back to your seat!
They're all over the place,
like rabbits.
I must go to Oregon.
Wait for me at my ranch.
Wait for a dead man?
A star-studded cast
featuring John Wayne,
Claire Trevor
Good evening, everyone!
Can't I say hello?
- Double-bill today.
- So what? I come here to sleep.
Cut the news, Alfredo!
ITALY DOESN'T FORGE RESISTANCE RALLY
The men and women who fought
in the Resistance
are reunited in Rome
for the First Resistance Rally
organized by CVL.
Prime Minister Parri
THE EARTH TREMBLES
Featuring
SICILIAN FISHERMEN
What does it say?
- Who knows? I'm illiterate.
- You too?
The Italian language is not spoken
by the poor in Sicily.
to take home the bare minimum
required not to die of hunger.
And yet, their nets
were full
when they pulled them up
All day fishing,
and what do we have to show for it?
That may be so,
but what can we do?
I knew it!
and I've never seen a kiss!
Will we ever?
Son of a b*tch!
- You and you, to work.
- What about me, Don Vincenzo?
You? Get a job from Stalin.
Don't you worry, his day will come.
I always get left out.
Nice film. That young man
worked ever so hard.
- Pity he was so unlucky.
- Why did he go and buy that boat?
Idiot!
You didn't understand anything.
Right, boys.
Here you work from dawn to dusk.
I've been looking for you all day.
Did you buy the milk?
- And the money?
- Stolen.
You went to the cinema?
The cinema!
- Signora Maria, wait!
- Leave him alone, you're hurting him.
And you, why did you tell lies?
You know you got in free.
Go on, tell your mother.
Maybe he lost it inside. How much?
50 lire.
What did you find
under the seats tonight?
A comb,
two heels,
a tobacco pouch
And 50 lire.
See?
Thank you, Alfredo.
- Good night.
- Good morning.
Good night.
I understood right away.
The square is mine!
It's midnight! Out!
I must close the square.
Hard on the feet, eh, Father?
Going, it's downhill
and all the saints help you.
Coming back, the saints just watch.
If it is God's will
See you tonight.
What's wrong? Your foot this time?
Oh dear, what can we do?
Did you know my father, Alfredo?
Of course I knew him.
Tall, thin, good-tempered,
with a moustache like mine.
He always smiled.
Now I'm older, Alfredo,
and I'm in the fifth year,
I'm not asking to go into the booth,
but couldn't we at least be friends?
"I choose my friends for their looks,
and my enemies for their intelligence."
You're too clever to be my friend.
