00:00The name's Buckingham.
00:09What do you want?
00:10I'm looking for Gino.
00:11You better go before I call the management.
00:15I'm still looking for Gino.
00:16Can't you read the newspapers?
00:19I am the newspapers.
00:20Then you must know he's on the run.
00:22The run's a big place.
00:24Take it easy.
00:28Take it easy.
00:29I'm only trying to help him.
00:30Take your hands off me.
00:31Look, lady, I'm not a cop.
00:32I'm a newspaper man.
00:33That makes it worse.
00:34I'd like you to find Gino if only for one thing.
00:37He'll kill you the moment he sets eyes on you.
00:40Where is he?
00:41You won't find out from me.
00:42Sounds like a raid.
00:43You ought to know about raids.
00:44Gino sees me, ladies and gentlemen.
00:45Nobody's to leave.
00:46Nobody.

02:09Can I...
02:10Nah.
02:11All right.
02:12All right.
02:13So you say you're dangerous.
02:14What if you get shot?
02:15There have been some ugly things said about you in the newspapers Gino.
02:16Nobody ever mentioned you'd shoot a man in the back.
02:18So?
02:19You kill me, you lose a friend.
02:20I got other friends.
02:22Yeah?
02:25Did they tip you off?
02:26All right.
02:27If it wasn't me who telephoned you, who was it?
02:29How would I know about it?
02:30You're smart, eh?
02:31I try hard.
02:34Look, I want a story.
02:35Straight from the stable.
02:36Fair exchange?
02:38I tipped you off, so I want your story.
02:39What do you say?
02:42Maybe we can talk.
02:47Gino, the police have raided the club.
02:50What's he doing here?
02:52It's all right.
02:53Get my coat.
02:54Come with you.
03:00I will send you a message, Rosetta.
03:03When you know where to find me, you get in touch with Giulio.
03:05All right.
03:07He will have something for me.
03:11All right, Rosetta?
03:12Yes, Gino.
03:13Come on, you.
03:15Where to?
03:16You want your story, no?
03:18Is she coming with us?
03:19No, she don't come.
03:22Pity.
