started. Have your tickets ready
Salvatore, my love I'll have to spend
all summer here with my parents
The days are never-ending here.
I see your name everywhere
in books, crosswords, newspapers
Unfortunately, I have bad news
We're moving to Palermo,
because of university
It'll be difficult to see each
other, but don't worry
I'll come and see you
at the Paradiso
When will this bloody summer end?
In a film, it'd already be over
Cut, and there's a storm. Great!
Tell them I'm Ulysses!
Elena! But when ?
Today. You can't imagine
the excuses I made up
in Rome. I leave on Friday
Wait for me at the Paradiso
I'll come on Thursday
on the 5 o'clock bus
Could be a mistake.
Anyway, Rome is great
Load the reels for tomorrow,
ready for the new man
Cheer up! I'll wait for you,
don't worry
No one's taking your job
It'll be waiting for you.
Don't look so gloomy
Salvatore di Vita reporting for duty!
Her father's been transferred
Sod you, bastard! You won't
bloody well tell me, will you?
You've lost weight. They didn't
treat you very well, did they?
They tell me you never go out
or talk to anyone. Why?
You know how it is
Sooner or later, the time comes
when it makes no difference
whether you talk or not
So you might as well shut up
It's hot in here
Take me to the sea
At Christmas, this lieutenant
pinches a girl's bum
She turns round.
It's the colonel's daughter
Terrified, he says:
"If your heart is as hard as what
I've just felt, I'm a dead man"
Have you seen her?
It was probably meant to be like this
Each of us has a star to follow
Go away from here.
This land is cursed
Living here every day, you think
it's the centre of the world
That nothing will ever change
Then you leave, for a year or two
And when you come back everything
is changed. The thread is broken
You don't find what you're looking for.
What was yours is gone
You need to go away for a long time
for many years
before you can come back
and find your people
the land where you were born
But not now. It's impossible
Now, you're blinder than I am
Who said that? Gary Cooper,
James Stewart, Henry Fonda?
No, Toto
No one said it
This time, I'm saying it
Life is not what you see in films
Life is much harder
Go away!
Go back to Rome. You're young
The world's your oyster
I'm old
I don't want to hear you any more
I want to hear about you
Don't come back
Don't look back, don't write
Don't give in to nostalgia.
Forget about us
If you come back,
don't come and see me
I won't let you in,
you understand?
Thank you
for everything you've done
Whatever you end up doing, love it
The way you loved
the projection booth
when you were a little boy
Is he already gone?
Toto, farewell!
I'm too late, what a pity!
It's Toto. I knew it
See how nice the house is?
We've had it all redone,
thanks to you
Come, I've a surprise for you
Are you tired?
You've time to rest
before the funeral
No, Mum. The flight is only an hour
Don't say that, after all these years
Come, I've put all your things
in here
He must be glad you came, Toto
He always talked about you, always
Right up to the end
He left something for you
Before you leave
come and see me
When did you close it down?
Six years ago in May.
No one came any more
You know it better than I do.
The recession, TV, videos
The cinema has become a memory
The city has purchased the site
for a public car park
They're pulling it down on Saturday,
Signor di Vita. Pity!
Why "Signor di Vita"?
It didn't use to be like that
It's awkward to be casual
with an important person
However, if you insist Toto
Who would have believed it? Toto
He left this for you
Never
Your mother once said
you'd come if he wanted you to
He was furious. He said:
"No! Toto must never
return to Giancaldo"
He wasn't being mean
He was a good man
Who knows what went through
his head?
He started saying strange things
towards the end
Just before he closed his eyes
he told your mother
not to let you know
What are you thinking?
I've always been afraid to come back
And now, after all these years,
I thought I was stronger
and had forgotten many things
But it's all right there
in front of me
as if I'd never gone away
And yet, I look around
and don't recognise anyone
And you, Mum
I deserted you
I ran away like a criminal
without an explanation
You don't have to explain
I always thought you were doing
the right thing. Don't dwell on it
You were right to leave
It allowed you to do
what you wanted
When I phone you,
it's a different woman every time
But I haven't yet heard the voice
I can tell
All the same
I'd like to see you
settling down
in love with someone
But your life is there
Here, there are only ghosts
Let go, Toto
It's my square
Check the leader.
Roll when you're ready
OK. Congratulations,
I loved your film
