00:01:00Oh
00:01:30Oh
00:02:00And
00:02:06Would you like a cow now, yes, thank you
00:02:11Jesus oh my mother's calling me. I have to go
00:02:15Is that what she named you Jesus? Yes
00:02:19How about you mama pretty? She's beautiful
00:02:24She wanted you more than anyone for her boy
00:02:27My mama I chose for myself
00:02:29I've got to go. Goodbye
00:02:33Marietta Marietta, wake up. Wake up
00:02:42Hey, what were you dreaming about my sister Celeste
00:02:46Did Jesus choose his own mother? Do you know if he chooses? Of course he did but Jesus was once a baby
00:02:53How can a baby to this he was God? Yes, he chose Mary. Jesus told me so. Oh, come along
00:02:59You always talk such nonsense money. It's okay. Now go and brush your teeth
00:03:03Boys boys, it's getting late
00:03:08And wash your face I will
00:03:23Come and look
00:03:30How many of them
00:03:32520
00:03:33We try to give the children the idea that they must be healthy and happy before they're selected by their parents
00:03:38We tell them if the parents are pleased they will be themselves. That's delightful
00:03:42I've always wanted a blonde boy with blue eyes and broad shoulders
00:03:47You have a boy with brown hair who looks as though he could take over the business one day
00:03:56Give it to me. Let's pull its wings
00:03:59No, you won't. He's my cousin, not yours. You keep your hands off my cousin. How would you like it if I pulled your arms and legs off?
00:04:18Boys boys stop fighting
00:04:22Marietta, why don't you find someone your own size?
00:04:26There you are, that's my boy, I'm sure that's the boy for me. Which one by the little one. It's not a yet
00:04:33That little boy is most intelligent. How old is he about the perfect?
00:04:48I'm afraid I saw you punched Tony. He punched me first. Why were you fighting Maria because he's bad
00:04:54He wanted to pull the wings of my pet cricket
00:04:58What will you do with train it, of course?
00:05:02You know what I think Maria you should give half the cricket to Tony
00:05:07He died mother. That's cooler than pulling off his wings. Tony doesn't want it. I'd rather set it free all together
00:05:13Bravo, Maria
00:05:15Have you had your vaccination yet dear? Why of course my wife sees a resemblance to our own boy
00:05:21Who was lost during the war? It was our great misfortune
00:05:24My boy look just like Marie
00:05:27How would you like it? Not a huge this beautiful lady with your mother? No, why not?
00:05:34Because she's as fat as an elephant
00:05:54I
00:06:24I
00:06:54I
00:07:17Hate oh what's wrong with you? Nothing. I'm tired of something I guess I'm just sleepy. That's all
00:07:25You
00:07:28Come on Marietta, we have to go to the office again
00:07:35Sister select
00:07:37When was the war many years ago?
00:07:40But I want to know how many well, I'd say 10 years or so. But why do you want to know?
00:07:44Oh, I have my reason
00:07:47You
00:07:52Come on thank you sister. It's all right
00:08:00Well now Maria, you must excuse yourself to the senior you must understand that your mom and that is you
00:08:06Just imagine she hasn't seen you since she lost you in the war, but I don't understand. It's 10 years since that all of you
00:08:12I'm only six years old
00:08:14Please it's not right to lie to me
00:08:16Yeah, so that's a dreadful way to talk to you. Oh, please forgive him Reverend mother
00:08:20This little boy of mine has been punished enough. He didn't mean it
00:08:24When we talked to the war we meant the period of the war
00:08:28I wish you'd explain to the baby how much you like living with us
00:08:30He will of course while you were in this lovely place your mama and I attained certain position, you know
00:08:37Making rolls and cakes is quite important and is our only child for you. Well, you've got a bakery
00:08:45Listen son, we've got the best most efficient oven in Rome. I'm not a bit interested in this stupid ugly
00:08:50It's not important to you now because you're a little boy
00:08:53But I might suggest you see this stuff and before you decide for her again, you'll see how happy you'll be with your own mom
00:09:00But this thing Nora is not my mama
00:09:04Because my mama wouldn't like it. What are you talking about? Maria? Yes. It's true. I have a mama already
00:09:12She is my real mother and her name is Camilla
00:09:15How do you do? Have you gone mad? No, I haven't. Why don't you tell us in your senior that I am the son of Camilla?
00:09:23He has a funny sense of humor, but but who is this so-called Camilla my mom
00:09:29You see I stay here because my mama works in that big theater
00:09:34Yes, because my mom is a ballerina a
00:09:38Ballerina sister, will you please take the boy away?
00:09:42Where would you like to go? I'd like some candy excuses
00:09:50No, let's make this clear now, of course
00:09:52We want the boy only we can't run the risk that one day some ballerina will show up and tell us I'm his mother and
00:09:58Then we'll have to give up money. What ballerina Marietta has a great imagination. He made up the whole story
00:10:04You're quite sure. Yes
00:10:07Absolutely, I assure you it isn't the first story. He's invented either but if he's that kind of child, maybe he's not for us
00:10:13That's enough
00:10:14You're talking nonsense
00:10:18Imagination is primary if a man is going to succeed in business that boy Mario is the boy for us
00:10:37Oh
00:10:42Yeah, we are give your hands your Papa no, he's supposed to give it to his mama
00:10:51No, he's not to be kissed it's very unsanitary. Oh, he's beautiful advice you made he's handsome. All right
00:10:58I
00:10:59Will not I don't want to
00:11:02Marry it. Oh, this is your grandmother. She loves you. She wants you to love her
00:11:06What do you expect to feel the poor child doesn't know me?
00:11:09Poor child in rags. Do you think he's sick?
00:11:12The boy's too small. He's very healthy. He's only six years old. I'll give your grandma. Hey, no kissing
00:11:19It's unsanitary. I knew her from sanitary before you were born. Don't you see the boys frightened the poor baby, please?
00:11:23Let the child alone
00:11:25This woman is my mother she makes it
00:11:31What do you know about being a mother

00:15:21Go on tell him to come in
00:15:33Good afternoon. Good afternoon
00:15:36What is it? You're having some trouble. You see this boy. He's eaten 385 liras worth of pastry
00:15:42Huh?
00:15:44And he doesn't have a single lira in his pocket, but I saw a big boy you gave cake to when I came in
00:15:50He paid for it. Oh
00:15:51So you can't eat for nothing. I
00:15:54Don't know don't pretend you're stupid. What do you think money is for? Oh
00:16:00I don't know. He'll learn. Oh, he'll learn
00:16:05This is money you want to know what it looks like
00:16:10Have you ever seen it before well, I'm sure I saw it before but I'm not sure what it's used for

00:29:04What did you say
00:29:07I'm sorry to stop you. It's not your fault, but there's so much commotion in the house. I can't concentrate
00:29:11All right, we'll pick it up on the seventh beat
00:29:15What did you say again? You mean the one wearing the crown? Who's that lady? I said
00:29:22She's my mama
00:29:23She's your mama. Yes, I told you
00:29:27But this is inexcusable have you no manners at all I allow people to come in for dress rehearsal

00:30:21Oh

00:30:33Why do you keep inviting guests to rehearsals? It's impossible to work like this. I told you before Camilla
00:30:38You're just so disagreeable Andrea. It's certainly not my fault that you're so nervous
00:30:42If you want it that way, I'll never invite anybody again fine with me
00:30:48And what's this Oh
00:30:52I

00:32:43Because I I wanted you or no one
00:32:47But why me in particular?
00:32:49Because you're the most beautiful of everyone. I

00:39:34I thought to myself that man has to know where you must live. Oh, I followed him
00:39:41Clever
00:39:46Don't worry, it's just my cricket. He's getting lonely
00:39:50Wanna see my cricket. I bet you never saw a cricket. Oh
00:39:54He's a beauty. Would you like him? You can have him
00:39:58You keep the cricket. I
00:40:01Prefer a little dog. Tell me does he always chirp?
00:40:05When it begins to get dark, he begins to churn or when he gets hungry. Have you any lettuce? Oh
00:40:14No, I don't but I might have some carrots or
00:40:17How about some sugar that's nourishing
00:40:22Sugar what I dropped it. Okay. Let's try the sugar. Well, what if we got to lose up?
00:40:31It's funny I'm so crazy about cricket, isn't it? But those sisters hated quick they always go
00:40:38I don't know why but they do
00:40:40Even when I don't have any old crickets at all. Ah
00:40:44They're all right, I guess. Ah, but aren't you happy at school Marietta? They take good care of you. You should be grateful for that
00:40:50Well, I am too
00:40:55You don't really love your school Marietta, no
00:41:00So you made up this tale that I was your real mother I didn't make it up
00:41:04It's true when that fat lady wanted to take me away. I told her you were my own mother and I ran away and found the
00:41:10aquagirl
00:41:13Aquabats, yes, aquabats. Don't say you don't really know any aquabats. No
00:41:19I'll try to tell you about them
00:41:23Do you know how to pull a rope? Yes
00:41:26Do you know how to play on a trumpet?
00:41:28Mm-hmm. Probably you could do it. It's all very simple. You sit on her shoulders
00:41:33I mean just separate and she walks on that wire only she doesn't fall. Oh, no, who is this to step up?
00:41:40Just step for her
00:41:42Giuseppe is the woman who puts you on her shoulders
00:41:44You pull the rope and you play the trumpet and then you start to fly because you've got wings
00:41:50It's lots of fun. I'm sure they wanted me to stay me to be the angel with the wings and all
00:41:56But when I saw we were in front of the opera house, I wanted to see you
00:41:59I'm not so interested in being an angel with the wings. I must be crazy or something
00:42:05Yes, you're crazy or something
00:42:06But if only you'd stayed with them you would have had a really good supper Marietta
00:42:10And you would have been in bed by now, and I don't even know where to put you. Oh
00:42:14So what as long as we're together?
00:42:16Hello
00:42:35No, Andre, I'm sorry, it's impossible tonight. I tell you it's impossible
00:42:42Even if I wanted to I can I'm entertained

00:43:46I
00:43:48I
00:43:50I
00:44:13Said Marietta, I'm a son. What's the matter with you? Oh, yes. She comes now
00:44:21Who's speaking
00:44:23Camilla what's going on in that house of yours? Who is this boy that claims to be your son?
00:44:28Since when do you have a son? I
00:44:30You know very well. He's not yours. So don't worry about it my friend
00:44:36I'm sure the gondria condia does get misty Claire. He started here does Morgan
00:44:43But

00:44:55Ready I

00:45:13Why do you have such crazy chair someday I'll get good ones
00:45:21Well, it doesn't look so bad does it
00:45:29And now let's have a good appetite don't worry about my appetite
00:45:42I
00:45:46What's the matter
00:45:51Does it taste peculiar to you Mary ain't no mine does it's wonderful. It's so sweet
00:45:57My goodness, I must have put sugar in instead of salt
00:46:03Alvin my cricket must have had to solve
00:46:06He's all right, I guess crickets like salt
00:46:17Are you still pumping that bed you better stop or it'll burst
00:46:35I love this bed. It's so bouncy
00:46:53What about you where are you going to sleep room enough for two dear there's such a tiny fellow tuck yourself in
00:47:00Mama yes, can the cricket sleep next to his two, please?
00:47:06Yes, why not as long as he doesn't chirp during the night
00:47:10Don't worry mama. He's a very good cricket, especially at night
00:47:16Crickets to now get into bed
00:47:31You

00:47:47All mama's a pretty maniac
00:47:51All right now go to sleep
00:48:01I'm awfully glad that you're my mama. I always thought I'd like to be the son of a mama like you
00:48:10Because if I weren't your son, we'd be two other people
00:48:16That's enough sleep
00:48:19Good night, mama
00:48:27What is it now Marietta I'll pray
00:48:31What prayer the regular prayer to thank the father the son and the Holy Spirit? Oh
00:48:37Yes, I forgot

00:48:57Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven
00:49:00Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses
00:49:04as we forgive those who trespass against us
00:49:09I
00:49:39I
00:49:41I
00:49:43I
00:50:07Good morning Camilla. What are you doing here? So early good Lord. See what a mess you got yourself into
00:50:14You have a proper place for a hat
00:50:17What's wrong Andrew? What's wrong?
00:50:27The opening hasn't been put off has it
00:50:30No, Camilla, the opening has not been put off but I'm thinking seriously of doing it
00:50:34You're obviously too occupied to be a ballerina your maternal instincts have taken over haven't they?
00:50:39Why don't you leave that to women who have nothing better to do?
00:50:43I don't know what you're talking about. I'll tell you what I'm talking about
00:50:47enterprising little boys sought by the police the headline says a
00:50:51Small boy of six who had lived at the orphanage of Santa Rita ran away yesterday from a family which had been prepared to adopt
00:50:57It the police up until now have found no trace of his whereabouts and request any information regarding him
00:51:03There are a little fugitive who answers to the name of Marietta. Hmm
00:51:08Was last seen wearing a black or gray cap of worn suit a gray shirt and patched up shoes
00:51:13But tell me if I'm not mistaken
00:51:16Wasn't that the boy I saw in your dressing room and was he your guest? What's so awful about that?
00:51:21Anybody would be kind to a boy who'd run away from an orphanage if I knew you had a child
00:51:25I wouldn't think it was awful. But if I knew you had abandoned him, I'd think that was awful Camilla
00:51:31Until yesterday afternoon. I didn't know the child was born
00:51:34I wouldn't even have known he'd run away from an orphanage if you hadn't brought me the paper, honestly
00:51:39Come on Camilla
00:51:41You live in this house without a stick of furniture
00:51:43If you want to sit down you have to sit on the floor because you don't have the money to buy a chair
00:51:47You won't accept money much less for me because you don't want to be compromised under these conditions dear
00:51:53Wouldn't it be more sensible to buy a bed instead of having to feed a stray little child? Don't talk so loud
00:51:58He's in there sleeping
00:52:10You
00:52:17How can anyone that a little fellow stay out on the street when he looks at you and says I'm hungry
00:52:23Yes, but why does he have to say he's your son
00:52:27He told me a crazy story. Manny. I just such a sweet little thing
00:52:31Full of ideas if he were really my son
00:52:35I don't know and what you intend to do with it. You tell me Andre
00:52:39All right, I will I'll buy him some candy and ice cream and give him to the first policeman. I find he'll take him back
00:52:45to the orphanage
00:52:47No, if you say so, I'll do it. He'd be too frightened to go with you
00:52:50But Camilla my dear you really must decide remember you're having your debut tonight
00:52:55You have to go to the hairdresser check your wardrobe
00:52:58You can't be a mother and a ballerina at the same time
00:53:02And remember you invited me our gala night
00:53:07Ah, I almost forgot little mothers like you need some money to pay for gala suppers
00:53:21Thirty thousand lira for one supper
00:53:24Do you want salami and olives on the night of your debut? No, no, you'll buy
00:53:28Pate de pagra, caviar, stuffed artichokes and champagne two bottles
00:53:33Two and see that the champagne is a good year. Champagne? Yes. Suppose we're a failure supposing they walk out on us
00:53:42Salami and olives
00:53:58Oh
00:54:11Listen hands off my mama
00:54:13So you have a slingshot you shot at me you little devil
00:54:17Child, I'll teach you come over here
00:54:22Don't you touch him? Don't you dare?
00:54:25Get out when you leave I'll think about it. So this what?
00:54:43I'm sorry, Andrea
00:54:51I hope you get to the theater
00:54:54It might be a good idea. I
00:54:56Will don't worry
00:55:04Now was that a nice thing to do you could have put one of his eyes out
00:55:08Impossible. I shot him in the back like an Indian
00:55:16Good morning, mama. I hope you don't catch cold with nothing on
00:55:19You must be fixing something good for breakfast at least something smells wonderful
00:55:49You
00:56:03You like that coat
00:56:06What it
00:56:13Do I look nice mama I should say so I don't think I've ever been so happy that makes me happy, too
00:56:36You
00:56:43Here better have some money in your pocket. Oh, no, if I have you what do I need money for?
00:56:49Whatever you like with it, you know what you can buy for a thousand lira
00:56:53No, but I think I might get an automobile. What do you need an automobile for?
00:56:59Not a great big one a small one made specially for boys
00:57:06You
00:57:08Where are we going mama?
00:57:13Where are we going wherever you like then? Why don't we go and find out where they're playing the music?

00:57:33Hurry, can I go on the merry-go-round mama?
00:57:37Sure, why not? I've never been on a merry-go-round. Are you very brave? Yes
00:57:42We're going to start the merry-go-round ride the wild horses or sit in a chariot
00:57:47Hurry now hurry before we start spinning round and round the world climb aboard children and mothers are invited
00:57:56I'm awfully glad that they let ladies get on to mama

01:03:22You must be so furious mama. I'm sorry. I waited for you and you weren't there so I walked home
01:03:30Why did you take off your shoes Mary Ann?
01:03:33I
01:03:34Didn't want to hurt you
01:03:36I
01:03:38Didn't want to hurt you
01:03:40I
01:03:42Didn't want to hurt you
01:03:44I
01:03:46Didn't want to hurt you
01:03:48I
01:03:50Take off your shoes Mary
01:03:52My feet hurt. I walk so much. It was hard trying to find the house
01:03:56And you eaten anything? Well, I guess I forgot
01:04:02All right
01:04:18Come on
01:04:21You
01:04:37You know when I got lost I thought I'd try to find you at the theater
01:04:40But I just couldn't find that old Peter. Where is that theater anyway?
01:04:44You won't be mad at me mama, will you I met some boys on the merry-go-round
01:04:49It wasn't your fault. It was my fault. I'm awfully sorry
01:04:53Put the things down over there
01:05:04It looks as though you got a lot of good things for me mama at school, I usually give a soup and spaghetti
01:05:11Now that I think of it. I am pretty hungry
01:05:13Do you want me to set up those crazy packing cases again? I'm very strong
01:05:18No, Mary do I have to go to the theater now, but aren't you going to eat too mama?
01:05:23I'm making my debut tonight. Marietta. Oh, I never eat before I dance dancing is my profession. What is that a profession?
01:05:31When you're grown up you have to support yourself Marietta
01:05:34What it means is there are lawyers and doctors dressmakers and sisters, right?
01:05:39Yes, surely sisters too, but I'm a ballerina you have to work hard to be a ballerina are you always a ballerina
01:05:47Yes, that's my job. That's why I have to go to the theater. You know what the theater is you were there
01:05:52Yes, where they have all those pretty chairs, but nobody sits in them. I can't figure it out
01:05:59Well at night there are people sitting in all those chairs at least we hope so and they watch me dance
01:06:04And if I'm good they applaud and if I'm bad they boo I wouldn't like it if they boo
01:06:10If you take me to the theater, I'll applaud I can't
01:06:14You're a little too young to go to the theater. You eat your supper and go to bed
01:06:18I'll be home as soon as the ballet is over. It's my debut tonight. Your profession makes me sick
01:06:25Please eat your supper and go to bed. I'm late already
01:06:30When are you going to eat after the theater
01:06:34I
01:06:38Help yourself to whatever you want. Bon Appetit. I wish we could sit on those packing cases
01:06:44Well get one for yourself. Oh, I wouldn't bother not if you're not here
01:07:04Oh
01:07:26It's you come on in
01:07:29You know, my mother has a debut tonight, so she's taking a shower
01:07:39What a funny suit you have on I was having supper would you like some
01:07:47Sit down
01:07:50Sit down
01:07:55Are you going to the theater too? Why don't you eat something before you go? You're not a ballerina a
01:08:04Slice of salami or an olive I'll eat it
01:08:19I
01:08:26Opened the door for him mama. That's fine
01:08:31What time is it half past six eat Marietta be ready in a minute
01:08:50Naturally you must be thinking that what I told you was a bunch of lies that I am his mother
01:08:54No, no, I didn't say anything
01:08:56Then why don't you Andrea?
01:08:59Tired of this whole thing and how I got into it. You always watch my every move
01:09:04The boy's still here. I know
01:09:06What am I to believe?
01:09:08Do you believe I planned this specially on the night of my debut?
01:09:12All right, I didn't have the heart to take him back to the orphanage
01:09:19Today of all days
01:09:22All right
01:09:29Then I thought I'd just lose it and I left him on the merry-go-round and came home
01:09:34But he found
01:09:36He's smart
01:09:37I'm not going to throw him out tonight
01:09:39Tomorrow I'll take him back to Santa Rita
01:09:43He's even eating our gala supper
01:09:46So hungry
01:09:48How am I going to dance tonight? I'll probably fall on my face
01:09:51You
01:10:08Did you enjoy your supper Mary
01:10:12Yes, I
01:10:14Fixed the bed for you, my darling
01:10:16You get into bed when you're finished eating
01:10:18I'll be home as soon as I can and you'll be a good boy and wish mama luck. All right. Yes
01:10:24Good night, dear. Good night. Come on
01:10:34Good night, my Bambino
01:10:48I
01:10:50I
01:11:16Love what do you want?
01:11:19Do I have a wrong number? What number is this? I'm not a number you're speaking to you're only speaking to Marietta
01:11:29Marietta Marietta, are you the small boy who was watching rehearsal with me yesterday?
01:11:35Of course I remember you Marietta, I telephoned your mama to wish her luck
01:11:41Hmm
01:11:43Are you crying
01:11:45My mother thought she'd lost me for good because she doesn't want a son like me. She's a ballerina
01:11:51My mommy would rather have a profession than to be a mommy
01:11:54Did she have to go and leave me on the merry-go-round by myself?
01:12:03Marietta Marietta
01:12:10I
01:12:41Do you have a few words to say to the radio audience this evening?
01:12:43No, no, not now. She's doing something. A little later.
01:12:45She's beautiful. Beautiful.
01:12:47But the girl is a sensation.
01:12:49I'm from up there, ma'am. May I have a word with her?
01:12:51Just a few words.
01:12:55Ah!
01:12:57Filippo!
01:12:59I only wanted to congratulate you, Camilla.
01:13:01Thank you, Filippo.
01:13:05I'm afraid there's something wrong at your house, Camilla.
01:13:07Why, Filippo?
01:13:10I called you around 7.30 to wish you luck, but you'd already left.
01:13:12The little boy answered the phone.
01:13:14He was crying. He was very upset.
01:13:16He was talking about a merry-go-round or something.
01:13:18He got lost.
01:13:20Yes?
01:13:22Yes, he said you didn't want him for a son because you were a ballerina.
01:13:24He heard you say you purposely left him alone on the merry-go-round.
01:13:26He said you didn't want to act like a mother
01:13:28because dancing was more important to you.
01:13:30I was on my way here,
01:13:32but I knew something was wrong.
01:13:34I ran over to your house.
01:13:36There was no answer.
01:13:38Where was he? Why didn't he answer the door?
01:13:40I wouldn't...
01:13:42I wouldn't upset her tonight of all nights.
01:13:44Camilla,
01:13:46I think something must have happened to the boy.
01:13:48Let's go.
01:13:54Marietta?
01:13:58Marietta!
01:14:05Marietta!
01:14:08Marietta!
01:14:25What are we going to do?
01:14:27Do something. Don't just stand there.
01:14:29Call somebody or something.
01:14:31Yes, I'll call.
01:14:33Well, hurry, will you?
01:14:36Whom are you going to call, Filippo?
01:14:38Well, you said call somebody,
01:14:40so I'm calling.
01:14:42The police. That's the thing to do.
01:14:44The police? That's the last place he'd think of going.
01:14:47I know that, but the police might have found him.
01:14:57Look, he left a note for you.
01:15:00I'm sorry that I must have chosen the wrong mother.
01:15:04You don't want me, so I'm going away.
01:15:07I am leaving you my cricket because I still love you.
01:15:10Marietta.
01:15:28It must be Marietta. He's changed his mind.
01:15:30Hello?
01:15:32I was in your audience tonight.
01:15:34I think you were the most beautiful thing I ever saw.
01:15:36Will you have supper with me tonight?
01:15:38I have found much to do.
01:15:40Are you there?
01:15:42I've made reservations about waiting for you at my garden.
01:15:46All right, let's go.
01:16:01Do you have any ideas?
01:16:03I want to find a child, that's all.
01:16:05What do you propose?
01:16:07How do I know? We just must find that child.
01:16:09What did you do to the boy?
01:16:11He's still only a baby.
01:16:13Disappointing him.
01:16:15You don't make sense.
01:16:16That's not important.
01:16:30Marietta.
01:16:44Praise be Jesus.
01:16:46Praise be Jesus.
01:16:49Excuse me, please, mother.
01:16:51We came about the little boy who ran away.
01:16:54We read the story in the paper and we thought you might have some news about him.
01:16:57Marietta, yes.
01:16:59You're interested in him too.
01:17:01Since the newspaper printed the story, everyone seems interested in Marietta.
01:17:03Haven't they found him yet?
01:17:05Not yet, no, but don't worry about Marietta.
01:17:08He'll be all right.
01:17:10Well, do you have some special interest?
01:17:13Well, yes, we both.
01:17:16My husband and I might like to adopt him.
01:17:19How long have you been married?
01:17:24A little while.
01:17:25And do you have children?
01:17:28No.
01:17:29No.
01:17:31Well, children, if you both want the child, you may have him with my blessing.
01:17:35But you know what the laws are, don't you?
01:17:37Article 10 is part of the civil code.
01:17:40According to the law, you can have the child for three years.
01:17:43Should you then want legally to adopt him, you must abide by the laws.
01:17:46You know them.
01:17:48No, mother.
01:17:49Information.
01:17:50Information regarding your mode of life, your financial status, and math.
01:17:56I presume you do attend math.
01:17:59Yes, mother.
01:18:00Let me tell you about Marietta.
01:18:03His mother died giving birth to him.
01:18:04We have no knowledge of the father.
01:18:06He is truly a child of fortune.
01:18:08I must also tell you that he's an unusual and rather difficult child.
01:18:12Therefore, you will have to be unusual parents.
01:18:15You're sure of your choice?
01:18:16We have other less demanding children.
01:18:19Would you like to see a few of them before you decide on Marietta?
01:18:22No, reverend mother.
01:18:23We couldn't be more positive.
01:18:25We want one boy, Marietta.
01:18:27I see.
01:18:28I want you to know, though, that my Marietta doesn't hesitate to express his opinion.
01:18:33There was another couple who wanted to adopt him and he ran away from them, you know.
01:18:37He might be antagonistic before he gets used to you.
01:18:40I wouldn't frighten you for the world, but...
01:18:42but the boy may be absolutely, completely mad.
01:18:45Mad?
01:18:46If you think I'm telling stories, he says he has a mama already.
01:18:49The child has even invented a name for this imaginary mama of his.
01:18:53Camilla.
01:18:56And what do you suppose she is?
01:18:57Why, she's a ballerina.
01:19:01A ballerina.
01:19:17One, two, three, four.
01:19:43Who are these?
01:19:46Why don't people learn to drive?
01:19:49What is it with these young people nowadays?
01:19:54Camila, are you all right?
01:19:55Filippo!
01:19:56Camila, darling.
01:19:57Oh my God.
01:19:58What happened?
01:19:59I was so afraid that you might be hurt.
01:20:00Are you positive you're all right?
01:20:00Well, you could have been killed.
01:20:01Who was driving that other car?
01:20:02Wait till I get my hands on him.
01:20:05Here I am, senor.
01:20:07Is he always like this?
01:20:09What do you mean, am I always like this?
01:20:10Do you expect me not to be upset?
01:20:13Excuse me, I was only asking
01:20:15why you're so excited about a perfectly ordinary car.
01:20:18What do you mean?
01:20:18I bought that car with my blood
01:20:20and you almost killed us besides.
01:20:22Look what you've done to my car, you lunatic.
01:20:24Do you have a driver's license?
01:20:26Who's arguing?
01:20:27It wasn't your fault.
01:20:28It was my fault.
01:20:30I take the blame.
01:20:33I can see he's used to this sort of thing.
01:20:35It must happen all the time.
01:20:36Well, I try to make amends.
01:20:39I always do my best.
01:20:41Yes, yes.
01:20:42And who'll pay for the damages?
01:20:45I will.
01:20:47And what are we going to do now?
01:20:49Get into my taxi.
01:20:50I'll be glad to take you where you like.
01:20:52Please.
01:20:53We were going home.
01:20:5333 Via Porto Cattino.
01:20:5533, let's go.
01:20:58Wait a minute.
01:20:59What about my car?
01:21:03We'll tow her, senor.
01:21:07There, that's fine.
01:21:10No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:21:12She'll be more comfortable with me.
01:21:14I'll take her with me.
01:21:17There you are, senorina.
01:21:21You get in and steer.
01:21:23I'll go slowly.
01:21:24Now, keep calm.
01:21:30Ready?
01:21:32Ready.
01:21:42Ready.
01:21:52It seems to me I've seen you before.
01:21:56I've an idea, you're an actress.
01:21:59Yes, it seems to me I've seen you before.
01:22:01Or do you look like someone I know?
01:22:04Everyone knows a taxi driver is the work I do.
01:22:07I know now.
01:22:09I saw your picture the other day.
01:22:11Of course.
01:22:12Everyone says you're a wonderful ballerina.
01:22:15Here, you see?
01:22:16I have it right here.
01:22:17Take a look.
01:22:19Thank you, that's very nice of you.
01:22:21But I've already seen it.
01:22:25That's all right.
01:22:26You're a ballerina.
01:22:30And what does a ballerina do?
01:22:32Dances.
01:22:33I know that much, but what does she do otherwise?
01:22:39That's silly, isn't it?
01:22:40But I'd get so bored if I didn't get into conversation.
01:22:44It's just that I'm interested.
01:22:48We sit in the car all day long,
01:22:49you know, taxi drivers that wonder what's going on.
01:22:53I'll ask you a question.
01:22:55What do you want to do?
01:22:56Be a dancer, or really to live?
01:23:00Oh, dancing is my life.
01:23:02You like to drive a taxi, and I'm a dancer, right?
01:23:06That's living, isn't it?
01:23:08Yes, I'll agree, signorina.
01:23:10But do you like it?
01:23:12What do you mean, dancing?
01:23:13Well, for me, what else is there in the world?
01:23:16I suppose if you want to think so, nothing else matters.
01:23:20But I'm going to tell you how I feel about it.
01:23:23I get tired driving.
01:23:27Can you tell me what that has to do with me?
01:23:29Well, signorina, look at that nice young man we're towing.
01:23:32He made it pretty clear to me that he loved you.
01:23:35He wants to support the family someday.
01:23:37I'd swear to that, signorina.
01:23:40But how do you know?
01:23:41He didn't say anything.
01:23:43Oh, I know.
01:23:44A man in love is pretty hard to miss, my dear,
01:23:46and I'm also certain it's going to make
01:23:48a wonderful father and husband one day.
01:23:50He wants his family.
01:23:51What do you want?
01:23:54I'd be a ballerina, first of all.
01:23:57You're saying everything else is secondary?
01:24:01Don't be silly.
01:24:02I'm not saying anything like that.
01:24:04Only I won't give up my career for anybody.
01:24:07That I know.
01:24:08If you say so, only one day you might change your mind.
01:24:11Outside of Filippo, does anyone really care
01:24:13what happens to you?
01:24:16Yes.
01:24:18I think so, a little boy.
01:24:20Ah, you have a little boy?
01:24:23No, I don't.
01:24:24He's an orphan.
01:24:26Oh, an orphan.
01:24:29And he really cares whether you live or die, signorina.
01:24:33Maybe God willed it.
01:24:35And you'd rather have your career than take care of him.
01:24:39You're afraid to love.
01:24:41We said we'd adopt him if we find him.
01:24:44You'd adopt him?
01:24:46But love, that's what counts, signorina.
01:24:49You have to admit to love and give it gladly.
01:24:51It's the most important thing in the world.
01:24:54I know what love is.
01:24:55You needn't tell me.
01:24:56I'm sure you do.
01:24:57I just want to know where you're going.
01:24:59I've ridden in a lot of taxi cabs,
01:25:01but I've never had a cab driver before like you.
01:25:03I told you the address.
01:25:04I know the address.
01:25:05Well, then why don't you turn right?
01:25:07You make better progress if you take a straight route.
01:25:21Stop, please stop.
01:25:30Why did you stop?
01:25:30What is it now?
01:25:31Look what it says.
01:25:32He's holding a trumpet.
01:25:38Mary Hinton!
01:25:39Shh!
01:25:41She looks as though she's going to fall.
01:26:08Shh!
01:26:09That idiot of a woman.
01:26:11I told her not to pick so much.
01:26:17Don't be afraid, Marietta.
01:26:19Why should I be afraid?
01:26:37Oh, my dear God, please let me find the right one.
01:27:00God says to tell you next time, don't drink so much wine.
01:27:03Thank you, dear God.
01:27:22Mary Hinton, thank God.
01:27:26He's hurt, that's all right.
01:27:29Thank you, thank you, thank you.
01:28:10Where's that taxi driver?
01:28:11He's gone.
01:28:15Wow.
01:28:25Camila, it's a miracle.
01:28:27Look at the car.
