1:20:01
I read your piece.
1:20:03
Skimmed it, really.
1:20:05
You understand, I'm always so busy.
The theater is a tyrant.
1:20:10
But you've got it.
1:20:12
You really liked it?
1:20:15
You've got it here... and here.
1:20:20
Sir.
1:20:23
"I'm a product of my time.
I am, alas, powerless.
1:20:26
Do you understand, Frida,
the writhing agony of my soul?"
1:20:29
Frida laughs.
1:20:31
"I understand, Roberto,
that you are consumed by pride..."
1:20:33
Salt.
1:20:34
"...by your being. Roberto laughs.
1:20:36
What more damage can pride do
to a soul already ruined?
1:20:40
Blind man!
Only fear could save you."
1:20:42
Blind man!
Only fear could save you.
1:20:47
Brilliant! But that was Frida's line.
She goes on.
1:20:50
"In the silence of your desert,
don't you hear a voice calling you?"
1:20:54
Robert, ironic: "Your voice, Frida?"
1:20:56
"No... God's."
1:20:58
So ends Act II.
1:21:03
Beautiful.
Don't you think it's good?
1:21:05
- I like it.
- May I start Act III?
1:21:08
- Go on.
- Act III, Scene i.
1:21:13
The door!
1:21:14
I'll close it.
1:21:16
Waiter, what have you got?
1:21:20
- Have you eaten, sir?
- May I go on, sir?
1:21:22
Very well, thank you.
1:21:24
- Of course, read on.
- Act III, Scene i.
1:21:33
What's the omelet Romagnola?
The one with all that grease?
1:21:37
- It's our specialty, with béchamel.
- All right, I'll have that.
1:21:39
Ask Mr. Natali to introduce us.
1:21:42
Why not?
1:21:46
They'll be represented
by two figures clad in white.
1:21:49
Black light will give the scene
a nightmarish quality.
1:21:54
The wind from time to time
will carry in the cry of the gulls.
1:21:56
As if shaken by a sudden shiver,
Frida turns.
1:21:59
She looks tired, aged. She approaches him.
"There will be no moon tonight."
