Subida Al Cielo (Ascent To Heaven) Page #3

---

I have lots of godchildren.

But he will be my favorite.

I want to see the cutie.

Move. Don't pester the lady.

- He has hair, look.

- Thanks.

Isn't he just like his father?

Tough luck. You're

as ugly as him.

Let's go, it's getting late.

Take care of him, he's lovely.

- Shut the door.

- I'm going to cover him.

Yes.

Get in, it's getting late.

What did I say?

See how fluid it is now?

Yes, but you can't deny

there was an accident.

Sure, but in exchange

of a new life.

Huh, boy.

Cheer up, everything will be fine.

The rain didn't fill the river.

We'll never get ahead like this.

Animals and people together.

- How nice.

- This is a drag.

Civilization. I don't understand.

We have a right to use

public services no matter what.

It's mine.

- Hit him, get him.

- It's mine.

Enough, stop fighting.

Get out of here.

Damn it.

Stay still, you're acting

like chili peppers.

Now you're really going to get it.

What if you had broken my leg?

- So what?

- I'd be worse off.

Well, you could buy another one.

Settle down, settle down.

Let's see what your

godfather brought you.

Godfather.

Again, compadre.

That's what we're here for.

What happened?

It's like with the slippers.

They get their feet wet

before the dance.

Why won't it start?

I'll take a look, must be the rocks.

Come on, Mr. Pedro.

Help that man who fell.

You're filthy,

you need a bath.

Let's take a dip in that pond.

I think I could use it, I'm coming.

Don't worry.

We'll get the bus out

thanks to my compadre.

This darn bus is like a pig

it loves mud.

Don't get mad.

Let's take a dip, you'll relax.

I understand that you're sad.

Poor thing.

Married and single.

I don't need your pity.

Sure. Albina is very pretty...

...but she isn't with you.

That's why I want to go back.

Come on, don't play hard to get.

Come on.

... has skinny legs...

Lorenza

... but pull the bus out first.

Lorenza

... but pull the bus out first.

Animal traction is obsolete.

We're an industrialized country.

Look over there.

My train of oxen can

pull it out, Mr. Eladio.

Why go so far?

You're all so close-minded.

- Enemies of progress.

- Yes, Mr. Eladio.

- The oxen are too slow.

- Yeah, but they're sure.

- I'll get the tractor.

- Go on.

Tell me, do you dislike me?

No, why?

Because you act

like you don't know me.

I'm treating you as always.

Yeah, but now we're not as always.

Oh, you're so faithful.

Poor Albina, she has no

idea who she married.

It seems you don't either.

What's wrong with her?

It's not about her.

It's about you.

Pull that.

Up.

- Pull.

- Harder.

Pull that.

Come on, you bum, push.

Stop loafing around.

You do it, if you're so savvy.

Stop loafing around.

I'll be dog-gone.

Now Mr. Eladio's really done it.

Second gear, to your left.

Leave me alone,

I know what I'm doing.

Not by the edge.

Not by the edge, you dunce.

I told you to move

to the left, stupid.

All right, to the left it is.

This politician is a show-off.

Always fussing about.

Back up.

I'll be damned, man.

If those are his speeches,

he's sure to win.

Thought it was easy to

do two things at a time.

We're stuck.

Look at the bus.

She manipulates others

besides her father.

Give me those cheeks.

That's why I'm your godfather.

Close-minded nitwits.

The animal traction

got tired and left.

Let's go, Silvestre.

Please, it's late.

Let's all go.

Hey.

Hey.

Don't forget about me.

It had to be you.

Did you want to leave me here?

Oh, you're such a nuisance,

what a pest.

Not a pest.

- More like a plant.

- No wonder you want to grow roots.

Were you thinking of me?

Pay up, Rosalio.

I may have dough, but

I'm not your relative.

What?

I'll ask you when

I hang my hat on them.

You think everyone's like you.

The guy at the wheel.

To the crossroads.

Are you selling chickens?

Not ordinary livestock.

I only deal Legore...

...Rhode Island...

...and others from my catalogue.

Tell me when you have

feathers for my mattress.

Silvestre, it's late, let's go.

Come on, let's.

Let's all climb on the bus.

Mother, at least give me some bread.

- I knew you had some.

- Stop pestering.

- Do you want a bite?

- No, thanks.

Well.

- You sound like a...

- Spaniard, from Madrid. Mr...

Nemesio Alvarez y Villalbazo,

at your service.

- Miguel Suarez, at your service.

- Pleasure.

- What do you do?

- I sell hens.

- Where are they?

- Here.

Right here?

It's cheaper than cages.

Those are some nice looking hens.

Are they expensive?

Well, they yield a lot.

There's no better business

than a hen farm.

If you're interested.

As long as I'm not done

justice and recover my land...

...I can't think of it.

Oh, man.

They may think I'm lazy.

If I don't get some sleep,

we'll be dead.

Don't worry,

I'll sleep on the luggage.

Stop loafing around.

I have to be in Petatlan early.

You said we'd make it on time...

...to catch the bus

to Chilpancingo.

I can't stand it anymore.

Let me drive, I'm not sleepy.

Whatever.

I'm going to sleep.

If it weren't for you...

...what a country this would be.

Everybody doing their own will.

No wonder we don't get ahead.

I'm going to file a complaint.

This man here is the

complaining kind.

And he hasn't confronted

real problems yet.

Always among hens, all he

does is cluck and complain.

Yes, but like a rooster.

People like you are our doom.

Mom, look at him snore.

He even whistles.

Like a train, huh?

Yes, son. Come here.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Look at her twisting

like a caterpillar.

Move. Give me that.

If you broke my mirror...

...with all that bouncing around...

...you won't live to tell about it.

Heavenly Jesus.

What a life, brother.

They pay you for sleeping.

Would you like your chocolate, sir?

I can see Petatlan.

Who said we're going to Petatlan?

Aren't we going to Petatlan?

Yes, we are.

But first, we'll drop by my...

...mother's ranch in time

to serenade her.

Today's her birthday.

Everyone's invited.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

Happy birthday to you...

... happy birthday to you...

... we've come to sing...

... to beautiful girls like you.

Wake up, dear, wake up

- The sun has risen.

- Sorry, man.

But what would you do if...

...it were your mother's birthday?

I don't know, my mother is dying.

Don't get depressed.

Even if you arrive early, you...

...can't return to San Jeronimito today.

Besides, the lawyer

won't even be up yet.

There's a motorcycle waiting for me.

Just a few yards

from my mother's house.

I hope nobody leaves

without toasting for her.

We'll be delighted.

What's your mother like?

She's a true beauty.

Happy birthday to you...

... happy birthday to you...

You know I wish for

you the best, mother.

Thank you, dear.

Did you hear, mother?

Get up, today's a great day.

The only day I can't get up early.

... wake up, dear...

There's Silvestre.

I have to pretend I'm asleep.

... the birds are chirping...

... and the moon has risen.

What a beautiful morning...
