00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,THE FAMILY

00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,How much longer must we wait?

00:01:51,704 --> 00:01:55,This the day of my baptism,
celebrated in our house in the new

00:01:55,851 --> 00:01:59,Prati district, bought on hire-purchase
by my grandfather:

00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,In 20 years it'll be ours.

00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,Among those posing, my grandfather's
the one in the armchair.

00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:11,I'm the one in the baby carriage,
in the arms of the little Adelina,

00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,niece of our servant, Nunzia,
who you can see back-right.

00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,Don't move!

00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:27,- My eyes were crooked!
- I felt like laughing!

00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:32,She is my mother Before getting
married, she studied singing.

00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,Instead of lulling me to sleep with
cradle songs, she sang love songs and...

00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:39,.. arias from lyrical operas to me.

00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:44,Millina, Margherita and Luisa are my
father's sisters, unmarried.

00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:50,This is doctor Giordani,
our family doctor. Single.

00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,My grandfather teaches literature
at the University of Rome.

00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,Amateur poet and Carducci's detractor.
It's about him that he likes saying:

00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,"The republican lion has become
the queen's poodle."

00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:06,- What will you be, a genius or an idiot?
- A lot of talk!

00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:11,- He'll be a son of God.
- A modest career.

00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,- I want some water!
- That would be had for you!

00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,You'll get a stomach ache,
a fever, and typhus!

00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,The child to whom my grandmother lists
the consequences of greed...

00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:25,.. is my uncle Nicolino,
my mother's brother.

00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,He came from Macerata.

00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,This child is my cousin Enrico.

00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,He also came for my baptism.
He lives in Rome.

00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,He's the son of Michelle and Ersilia,
whom my aunts call...

00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,.. "the Cairoli brothers".

00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,Why don't you sing something?

00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,Come on!

00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:53,Carlo: the name in German is Karl,
means "free man".

00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,- Remind him that when he's older.
- Yes, father.

00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:02,And finally, my father, official
with the Ministry of Public Education.

00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,Come,
Susana's singing!

00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:10,He has artistic tastes and dedicates his
free time to painting.

00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,The "Girl with Fruit,"
which Giordani seems to be admiring,

00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,is one of his works.

00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:16,Plaisir d'amour...

00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:24,.. ne dure qu'un moment.

00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:29,Chagrin d'amour...

00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:35,.. dure toute la vie.

00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:59,Chagrin d'amour...

00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,.. dure toute la vie.

00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,- Catch him!
- Get hold of him!

00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:39,I'm 10 years old. My brother Giulio is and Enrico is 12.

00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,The infantry cap he's g***t on
is his father's, uncle Michele.

00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,He came home from the front
because of a serious family matter.

00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,One, two, three!

00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:01,You're dead!

00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,What are you doing?

00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,What are you doing?

00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,- Are you crazy?
- Shut up! Look if anyone's coming.

00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:36,- How much? - Half a lira.
- Too much. - That's all it is.

00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:40,- Let's share it. - What?
- I've seen everything.

00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:46,- You couldn't have, you're dead.
- I'll tell uncle Aristide everything.

00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,- Spy! Tattle-tale!
- Thief! Thief! - Get the Austrian!

00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:56,The Austrian infantry is
the worst there is,

00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,When they attack,
they s***t themselves with fear!

00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,Bombace, repeat after me!

00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,Bombace, repeat after me!

00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,- The Austrian infantry...
- Kids! Kids...

00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,Grandpa's dead.

00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:59,Courage, miss.

00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,Come.

00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,Thank you, doctor,
for your devotion.

00:09:22,560 --> 00:09:26,- I'm very attached to your family.
- We know that. Thank you.

00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:32,- Unfortunately, this time, science proved
to be useless. - Cover yourself carefully.

00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,- It's pouring outside.
- The tram stop is quite close.

00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,You have been so kind!

00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,Have courage. Your father wouldn't
like seeing you like this.

00:09:48,788 --> 00:09:49,I will.

00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:58,- Be an example for your sisters. Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,That'll teach you using my powder!

00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,- I didn't. - It was you!
You've finished all the french powder...

00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:32,- .. I had bought from Bertozzini!
- Not me. - Then it was you!

00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:37,- You're always exaggerating,
like your sister! - I'm exaggerating?

00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,- You both are!
- I'd say the three of you do.

00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:47,- I should break this on your head!
- Try. - You're an old maid!

00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:52,- I know who's an old maid!
- One has only g***t to watch the smiles...

00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,- .. you throw on Giordani!
- You throw them on every man!

00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:02,- I can't take it anymore! I'll kill myself!
- No, I'll kill you! - Stop it!

00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,- Goodbye, kids. Your aunt...
- Enough with the scenes!

00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,Your aunt says goodbye to you
for ever!

00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:16,- Stupid! - I want to die like Tosca!
- Open the door!

00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:22,Don't be stupid!

00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,Curse on you! Shameless women!

00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:30,"Brunello g***t away from that
possessed black man."

00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,"Now he's dying with laughter..."

00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:38,To make him look taller,
put a cushion under him.

00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:43,- His feet didn't touch the ground.
- Mother said: "Sit up straight!"

00:12:45,680 --> 00:12:49,Here's daddy. Giulio,
come to the table!

00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,Carlo, put that comic book away.

00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,- Giulio, have you washed your hands?
- Yes.

00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,What's the matter? What happened?

00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,- Good evening, dad.
- Good evening, Aristide.

00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:43,Today, I was ashamed of being the
head of this family.

00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:49,The other night, doctor Giordani,
coming out of here,

00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:54,right after my father's death,
risked getting into prison.

00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,He had to explain to two policemen...

00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,.. why he was lacking the money
to buy his ticket.

00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:07,- He was robbed in this very house.
- Must have been Adelina.

00:14:08,050 --> 00:14:10,Is there a thief in this family,

00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,- who has stolen a lira from the doctor?
- Half a lira!

00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,Yes, half a lira. It was you.

00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,Shame on you!
You dishonor this house!

00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:34,Daddy, I also did it.
We won't do it again.

00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,We'll give the doctor the half lira
back, and we'll ask him to forgive us.

00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:43,- We haven't spent it yet.
- How could you do this?

00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:48,- Giulio. - Yes, father?
- Giulio!

00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,- He's talking to you. - I've answered him.
- You see, Giulio...

00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:58,Your brother had the courage to confess.

00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:03,- So did I. - No! You let it slip.
- Same thing. - No, it isn't!

00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:08,You've g***t no merit for it.
Carlo's loyal, you aren't.

00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,You're a thief and a liar!

00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:21,Sunday afternoon we won't go have an
ice-cream cake in Esedra square.

00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:28,Now, you two go to bed without any supper.
Go!

00:15:28,760 -->...
