You put a curse on me,
not only for tonight,

:02:02
but from the unhappy moment
I knew of your existence.

:02:05
As you will put a curse always
on everyone near to you.

:02:08
- Maybe you can talk this over in private.
- Let him, Oscar.

:02:11
Next, you are not a woman. I do not know
what you are, but you are not a woman.

:02:16
You will not let yourself
be loved. You cannot love.

:02:19
Once, you had the look
for me of an exquisite lady.

:02:22
Now I do not see that look. I only see
that you have the body of an animal.

:02:27
A dead animal.
:02:30
I have paid for your company and
you will come and go as I tell you.

:02:33
Monsieur. Permit me.
:02:49
- Is the gigolo known to anyone?
- He is known to me.

:02:53
His name is Vincenzo,
Conte Torlato-Favrini.

:02:56
He is not a gigolo. He is less a gigolo
than anyone in our immediate company.

:03:01
Surely less than anyone you will
ever have the good fortune to meet.

:03:06
He certainly acts high and mighty
for just a count.

:03:09
My dear Lulu, there are counts and
counts, just as there are kings and kings.

:03:15
Among the counts,
Torlato-Favrini is a king.

:03:19
Just as among the kings, I am a clown.
:03:23
I am puzzled only by his presence
in a place like this, among people like us.

:03:32
My champagne is not properly cooled.
:03:36
Alberto, do you happen to know
the Marquise de Baudenière?

:03:39
A really distinguished family...
:03:42
And that was the last
I ever saw of Maria Vargas,

:03:46
whom the world knew as Maria D'Amata,
:03:50
but who died as
the Contessa Torlato-Favrini.
