00:00Be a king. Do you know what that means?
00:05As if the old man from Vatican were alive.
00:07If you could spread your wings, you, my eagle.
00:10The emperor is so far away.
00:12The garrison is so devoted to you.
00:13Besides, you can cut off five armies.
00:15But not the people.
00:16Do you know what the people are who take their benefactor in their arms?
00:21What is the father who shows you to his child?
00:24I don't care about taxes.
00:25If they pay taxes, I don't care about the rest.
00:27But they will eventually kill you.
00:32Think. Think how young you are.
00:35Your account is not yet closed in the hearts of the people.
00:37There is a lot of compassion for the rulers.
00:40Public gratitude is a deep river of oblivion
00:42in which their old mistakes are drowning.
00:44You were badly advised, you were deceived, but...
00:46But when this happens,
00:52when the poor will finally be able to breathe freely,
00:56do you think you will sleep peacefully in your last dream?
00:59You have a beautiful leg.
01:01Listen! Listen!
01:05You are like a god, I know that, but you are not evil.
01:08No, not for God.
01:10You are not, you cannot be evil.
01:14Think for a moment,
01:16one moment about what I am saying,
01:17whether there is any sense in it.
01:19But what did I do so wrong?
01:21I am worth as much as others.
01:22For honor, I am worth more than the pope.
01:25Your sermons remind me of the Trojans.
01:27You know I hate them.
01:29Do you want me to rebel against the emperors?
01:31The emperor is my father-in-law, my dear child.
01:33You say that the Florentines do not love me,
01:35but you complain that it is the other way around.
01:37And anyway, even if the truth was on your side,
01:39who should I be afraid of?
01:41You are not afraid of your people, but you are afraid of the emperor.
01:44You have killed or humiliated hundreds of citizens
01:48and you think that if you put a chain under the caftan,
01:51that's all.
01:53I am forgetting, I am forgetting what I do not want to say.
01:57My dear, my dear,
02:00who does not know that you are brave?
02:03Yes, yes, you are brave, you are beautiful.
02:06For the evil that you have done, your youth,
02:08your violence, your blood bear the blame.
02:11I beg you, I beg you,
02:12may I not be lost again.
02:14May my name, my poor love,
02:16not be inscribed on the list of shame.
02:18I am a woman, it is true.
02:20If beauty is everything for a woman,
02:22others are more beautiful than me.
02:24Tell me, tell me, tell me,
02:26don't you have anything, anything, anything here?
02:30Sit down in concrete.
02:31So yes, I admit it well.
02:33Yes, I have ambitions,
02:35but they do not concern me,
02:36they concern you, you and my Florence.
02:43God, you see how I suffer.
02:46You suffer, what does it add to you?
02:48Listen, you are bored with me.
02:52You count minutes, you turn your head,
02:54don't go away yet.
02:56Maybe it's time to leave you.
03:00Listen,
03:03I'm telling you
03:05that Florence calls you a new infection,
03:09that you will not find a home
03:12where your portrait would not have a knife
03:14pierced heart.
03:16Maybe I'm crazy,
03:18maybe you'll hate me tomorrow,
03:20everything is poor.
03:22You know now.
03:24Give up, I'll leave you now.
03:26I have to go hunting.
03:28Next time, maybe tomorrow,
03:30we'll meet, we'll talk about it.
03:34What the devil are you getting involved in politics for?
03:36I will give you the face of a woman,
03:38a real woman.
03:40You are usually pious,
03:41it will work out.
03:43Help me get dressed.
03:46Goodbye, Aleksandr.
03:48I'm sorry.
03:52Your Highness,
03:54I thought my sister was alone.
03:56What a nuisance.
04:00I beg you, forgive me.
04:02Malaspina,
04:04Malaspina, leave me alone.
04:06Is it appropriate for a priest to see such things?
04:09Come on, come on,
04:11it's not for you.
04:16Lorenzo was supposed to tell you about me,
04:20but who could fully express my love?
04:24Let the feather tell you
04:26what I could not express with my mouth
04:28and what the heart would like to sign with its own blood.
04:36Aleksandr Medici.
04:39If it weren't for my name
04:41on the letter, I would think
04:43that the messenger made a mistake.
04:45I don't believe my own eyes.
04:47It says that Lorenzo
04:49was supposed to tell you about him.
04:56To have such a son.
04:58To make a priest's lover out of a sister?
05:02No, not even a lover.
05:04What are these creatures called?
05:06A word will not pass through my mouth.
05:10Let's go.
05:12Let's go to him.
05:14I'll show him this letter.
05:16We'll see what he says, having God as a witness.
05:18I thought that the priest loved...
05:20Forgive me, mother.
05:22I thought that the priest loved Margarita Ciba.
05:24I was told...
05:26It's true.
05:28He loved her.
05:30And if he can love her
05:32and doesn't love her anymore,
05:35he'll give me his hand.
05:37I...
05:39I don't know what's going on with me.
05:45To tell you the truth,
05:47the fever hasn't left me for three days.
05:52Oh...
05:54Oh, Katina.
05:56Why did you give me this letter?
06:05I am...
06:07the head of our family.
06:09So how could I bear
06:11to be humiliated?
06:13It's enough to set fire
06:15to a barrel of gunpowder
06:17in the cellars of the Citadel
06:19and the German garrison will run away.
06:22And what then?
06:24They will remain in the Citadel.
06:27All their strength.
06:29They are nothing without it.
06:31Tonight
06:33we will free my sons.
06:35And tomorrow
06:37we will go to the gates of the palaces.
06:40Florence has 24 of them.
06:43A unit equal to ours
06:45will leave each of them
06:47when freedom knocks on the gates.
06:50Long live freedom!
06:52For 60 years
06:54I have been a good and loyal citizen.
06:56I swear by God
06:58that this is brutal violence.
07:00I order you today
07:02to reach for your weapons.
07:04Death to the Medici!
07:06Death to the Medici!
07:12What's the matter?
07:14My daughter, what's happened?
07:16For God's sake, say something!
07:18For God's sake!
07:20For God's sake, doctor!
07:22Cut her off, give her warm water.
07:24It's poison.
07:26She's dying.
07:28Maybe she drank too fast.
07:30My daughter, Luisa.
07:32It's poisoning, isn't it?
07:34Poor girl.
07:36She's not alive.
07:38It's the poison of the Medici.
07:40I'm sure I'm not mistaken.
07:42Fagas was serving at the table
07:44who served first
07:46at the wife of Zawiak.
07:48Yes, it's him.
07:49Let's stop him.
07:50Let's go and kill Alexander.
07:52Death to him.
07:53It's his business.
07:54Goodbye, friends.
07:56Goodbye.
07:57It's going well.
07:59Where are you going, Filipe?
08:01I can't carry any more.
08:06Two sons in prison.
08:08My daughter is dying.
08:10Are you leaving, Filipe?
08:12Without avenging the first crime?
08:14Yes, yes.
08:16Yes.
08:18Don't bury her.
08:20I'll do it myself
08:22at the Medici's
08:25I'll come for her tomorrow.
08:30She's not alive.
08:33Goodbye, friends.
08:35Go back home.
08:36Have a good time.
08:37Don't let him go.
08:38He's crazy.
08:39It's terrible.
08:40He feels close to death.
08:43Filipe.
08:45Avenge yourself.
08:47And let us avenge you.
08:50Let your Luisa
08:52become our Lucretia.
08:56When I stay
08:58everything around me will die.
09:02I'll leave, and you
09:04keep calm.
09:06When the doors and windows
09:08will be closed
09:10they will forget about atrocities.
09:12Otherwise
09:14you'll die one
09:16after another.
09:19I'm old.
09:20It's high time
09:22I close my shop.
09:25Goodbye, friends.
09:27Have a good time.
09:29Keep calm.
09:31I'm leaving for Venice.
09:35It's a terrible storm.
09:37Stay here for the night.
09:40God is just.
09:43God is just.
09:47Why did you leave me?
09:51I'd like to be there.
09:53I'd look at many faces in anger.
09:57But I don't understand
09:59who could poison Luisa.
10:02Me neither.
10:04Unless it's your height.
10:09Filipe must be furious.
10:12He's leaving for Venice.
10:14Thank God.
10:16I got rid of this heartless man.
10:19As for my family
10:21I'd like to stay calm.
10:24There was a revolution.
10:26Two Germans were killed.
10:29I'm sorry
10:31our beloved Serviatis lost his leg.
10:35Did you find the chain?
10:37No.
10:38You have no idea how angry I am.
10:41Watch out for John.
10:44It's him.
10:45What are you wearing?
10:47I wouldn't wear anything else.
10:49It won't be so light.
10:51I'm sorry.
10:53You don't mention my cousin.
10:57I love you.
11:00Her eyes forgot what a dream was
11:02since the star of love
11:04shone in her innocent heart.
11:06Have mercy.
11:08Tell her to come
11:10so that she can offer you
11:12the little bit of virtue she still has.
11:14Are you serious?
11:16I'd love her so much
11:18that my cousin wouldn't want to sleep with you.
11:20Where can I see her?
11:23In my bedroom.
11:27I'll hang curtains by the window
11:29and put a bouquet of flowers.
11:31Then I'll write in your note
11:33that my cousin will come at midnight.
11:35Otherwise you could have forgotten.
11:37Forgotten?
11:39My dear Lada.
11:42Are you sure she'll come?
11:44What did you take?
11:46I'll tell you later.
11:50I'm going to see the horse
11:52I bought.
11:54What about the margabine?
11:56I have it above my ear.
11:58I couldn't get rid of it
12:00during the hunting yesterday.
12:02See you in the evening.
12:04Come for me.
12:06We'll go together.
12:08Good night.
12:14Yes.
12:16Everything's decided.
12:18Tonight.
12:22Father!
12:24Father!
12:30Father!
12:34What's this?
12:36The windows are closed.
12:38Father!
12:40Father!
12:42My Lord.
12:44So you know?
12:46About what?
12:48Is it possible you don't know anything?
12:50What should we know?
12:52We're coming back from prison.
12:54Tell me what's going on.
12:56Poor gentlemen.
12:58Is it the Strozzi Palace?
13:00Yes.
13:02What do you want?
13:04We've come for Luisa Strozzi's body.
13:06To appraise Philip.
13:08Whose body?
13:10Philip's.
13:12Your face
13:14looks like Philip's.
13:16You won't learn anything good here.
13:18What?
13:20She's dead?
13:24She's dead?
13:26Oh, great God!
13:28You think I'm stupid?
13:32Who killed my sister?
13:34She doesn't die so easily at her age.
13:36In one night.
13:38Who killed her?
13:40And who am I supposed to kill?
13:42Tell me!
13:44If you have a heart!
13:50Where's my father?
13:52Come, Tomasz.
13:54No tears.
13:56My God.
13:58My God.
14:00My God.
14:06As you wish, Maraspina.
14:08Yes, as you wish.
14:10Margarabino, think it over
14:12before you kill me.
14:14Are you a woman like the others?
14:16Do I need a golden chain
14:18on my neck and a parchment in my hand
14:20for you to understand who I am?
14:22Remember,
14:24titles don't define a man.
14:26I'm not
14:28Pope's envoy.
14:30I'm not Charles V's soldier.
14:32I'm someone else.
14:34Yes, I know.
14:36The emperor sold his devil's shadow.
14:38The emperor's shadow
14:40walks around in a red robe
14:42and is called Cardinal.
14:44You're Alexandra's lover.
14:46Remember that.
14:48Your secret is in my hands.
14:50You'll do whatever you want with her.
14:52We'll see what use
14:54a confession from your conscience can make.
14:56Did I see it with my own eyes?
15:00So I can speak without sin
15:02about what I saw
15:04without breaking the confessional secret.
15:06What's next?
15:08Why did the prince leave so discouraged?
15:10You fed him with patriotism
15:12which, like a bad drink,
15:14spoils all the dishes on your table.
15:16What books did you read?
15:18Who guided your education?
15:20If you don't know
15:22that the king's lover
15:24never taught me
15:26what to say
15:28I didn't take care of it.
15:30Just as I didn't think
15:32about eating rice
15:34to learn Turkish prayer.
15:36You don't need much knowledge
15:38to keep your lover with you
15:40longer than three days.
15:42It's the knowledge
15:44the prince should give
15:46to a woman.
15:48Why didn't you advise me earlier?
15:50You want my advice?
15:52Go to the prince.
15:54If he expects phrases from you
15:56tell him
15:58that you can do something more.
16:02According to the nocturnal phenomenon
16:04the matter to fall asleep
16:06on your republican heart
16:08but not out of boredom.
16:10Are you a virgin
16:12or is there no Cypriot wine anymore?
16:14Can't you find a happy song in your memory?
16:16Did you read Arefina?
16:18You can hear such advice
16:20on the new market.
16:22If you're not a priest
16:24or at least not a man
16:26are you sure the sky is empty
16:28to cover the cardinal's purple with shame?
16:30There's nothing more
16:44I can't speak openly
16:46because I'm not sure of you
16:48but I know that if you were a different woman
16:50you would be a queen today.
16:52Do you know how high
16:54you can go?
16:56Do you know the careers
16:58whose beginnings are fighting?
17:02You call me the shadow of the emperor.
17:04You would see
17:06that this shadow is quite large
17:08to blind the sun of Florence.
17:10Listen.
17:12Alexander is the son of a pope
17:14and when the pope was in Bologna
17:16No.
17:18I'm going too far.
17:20Be careful not to confess
17:22in front of me
17:24if you're my husband's brother
17:26I'm Alexandra's lover.
17:28You were her
17:30and many others like her.
17:32Yes, I was.
17:34I was, thank God.
17:36Margarita, this contradiction doesn't make sense.
17:38You take everything too seriously.
17:40Make up with Alexander.
17:42If I offended you a moment ago
17:44I don't know how I would return to it.
17:52Let me guide you.
17:54In a year or two
17:56you will thank me.
18:00Margarita,
18:02I worked hard to become who I am
18:04and I know how high
18:06you can go.
18:08If I were sure of you
18:10I would tell you
18:12all the things
18:14God doesn't know about.
18:16Can't you speak more clearly?
18:18Malaspina
18:20I don't want to take advantage of you.
18:22Convince me
18:24if you can.
18:26Be honest.
18:28What is your goal?
18:30Would you let me convince you?
18:34You take me for a child
18:36and you think I just need to
18:38put honey on my lips
18:40First you act
18:42then you get used to it.
18:44On the day you
18:46take power
18:48not over Alexander's mind
18:50but over his heart
18:52I will tell you the rest
18:54and then you will understand
18:56what I want.
18:58Do you want me to say what you can't say?
19:00You serve the Pope for so long
19:02that the Emperor
19:04is convinced that you are a better servant
19:06than the Pope.
19:08The day will come
19:10when the Emperor will only
19:12thank you for the slavery of Italy
19:14and then he,
19:16who is the ruler of half the world
19:18will reward you
19:20with the empty kingdom of heaven.
19:22The task of the unfortunate
19:24Ricciardo Cibo
19:26will lead Alexander
19:28to several coups.
19:30Soon it will be known
19:32that she leads the prince
19:34but her brother-in-law leads her.
19:36But I think I am on the right track.
19:38Go to the prince in the evening
19:40or you are lost.
19:42Lost in what way?
19:44Your husband will find out everything.
19:46Tell him, tell him.
19:48I will kill myself.
19:50Listen, have you understood me well or badly?
19:52Go to the prince in the evening.
19:54No.
19:56Soon your husband will come
19:58and I swear
20:00that I will tell him everything
20:02if you say no again.
20:04No, no, no!
20:06Husband!
20:08Husband!
20:10When you were in Mass
20:12I gave myself to Alexander
20:14knowing who he is
20:16and how he will come
20:18and play a miserable role.
20:20But the priest
20:22who wants to play
20:24an even more despicable role
20:26wants to show me
20:28the title of the prince's lover
20:30and turn it to his advantage.
20:32What does it mean, Malaspina?
20:34You are standing like a statue.
20:36We are playing a comedy, Cardinal.
20:38How am I supposed to understand it?
20:40She has gone mad.
20:42Hey there!
20:44Bring some vinegar.
20:46Let all the devils
20:48do it.
21:02I will tell him
21:04that it is out of modesty
21:06and I will take the light.
21:08That's how it always is.
21:10The lover wants it from her husband
21:12before she enters the bridal chamber
21:14and Katarzyna leaves
21:16very sad.
21:18Won't you go to your mother, Lorenzo?
21:22She is ill.
21:24How is she ill?
21:26Yesterday I received a letter
21:28from the prince
21:30and I was told
21:32that you were going to tell me
21:34about his feelings.
21:36That letter hurt Maria very much.
21:38But I didn't say anything!
21:40Couldn't you say
21:42that I had nothing to do with it?
21:44You did.
21:48Why is your room
21:50so beautiful today?
21:52I didn't think
21:54that you put so much weight
21:56on order.
21:58The prince wrote to you.
22:00I didn't know
22:02anything about it.
22:04And what do you think
22:06about this letter?
22:08What should I think?
22:10About Alexandra's confession.
22:12What does your innocent heart
22:14think about it?
22:16What should I think?
22:18Doesn't it make you happy?
22:20The love that can be envied
22:22by so many women.
22:24Such a beautiful title
22:26for such a beautiful woman.
22:28Get out of here.
22:30Tell your mother
22:32that I'll be right back.
22:34Leave me alone.
22:36Get out!
22:48I would be ready
22:50to deprive Katarzyna.
22:52I could deprive
22:54my own mother if I wanted to.
22:58I wish my mother
23:00wouldn't pay with her life.
23:04If you care,
23:06no, no, no,
23:08take away the light if you want.
23:10A woman who gives herself
23:12for the first time is quite natural.
23:14A lady's whim.
23:18How can they believe
23:20in this murder?
23:22It can only surprise them.
23:24Even Filip.
23:30If republicans were men,
23:32what a revolution in the city tomorrow.
23:34But Piotr,
23:36crazy ambitions.
23:38Only Ruczelaj are worth something.
23:40Words.
23:44Words, words, words.
23:48If there's someone up there,
23:50he has to laugh at us.
23:52It has to be funny.
23:56Human nonsense.
23:58People without hands.
24:02I won't take the candle.
24:08He'll see.
24:10His own death
24:12will strike right in the heart.
24:14For the wounds of Christ
24:16everyone will be by the window tomorrow.
24:20I'll invent a new armor.
24:22A new chainmail.
24:24Damn invention.
24:26To fight with God and the devil
24:28is easy, but to fight with steel?
24:30I'll invent a new one.
24:32I'll put it here.
24:34No, here,
24:36on the armchair.
24:38It'll be easy.
24:44He'll sit,
24:46lie down,
24:48but he'll sit.
24:50I'll go first.
24:52If he waits in the office,
24:54we'll go in.
24:56We'll go in.
24:58I don't want him to turn his back.
25:00I'll go straight at him.
25:02Easy, easy, easy.
25:06I'll take a glass.
25:08I'll drink a glass.
25:10It's cold.
25:14I don't want to drink.
25:16I'll go.
25:18Everything is closed.
25:22Will he come in a shirt?
25:24No, no, I don't think so.
25:26Will he resist?
25:28No, I don't think so.
25:30Poor Katarzyna.
25:32She'd die like Louise.
25:34Or she'd roll into the abyss
25:36if I weren't here.
25:40It would be sad
25:42if Mom paid for it.
25:44If he told me his intention,
25:46what would it help?
25:48She'd keep repeating,
25:50crime, crime, crime.
25:52Why do I keep coming in?
25:54I'm getting tired.
26:04Poor Filip.
26:08A beautiful girl, like a painting.
26:10I used to sit next to her
26:12on the couch.
26:16How she worked,
26:18those white hands.
26:22How many days I spent
26:24under the trees.
26:28What a peace,
26:30what a silence in the cafe.
26:32She was pretty,
26:34that little tree.
26:36When she was hanging
26:38the white goats were entering
26:40the mud on the grass.
26:42She had to chase them away.
26:44The white goat was coming back.
26:48It would be funny
26:50if he suddenly asked
26:52if your room is on the side
26:54and he wouldn't hear anything.
26:58Funny.
27:04I made a mistake.
27:08What's that noise?
27:14They're carving stones.
27:16People don't lack courage
27:18with stones.
27:20But they hit.
27:22But they hit.
27:24Bravely, they hit the cross.
27:26I'd like that marble corpse
27:28to jump into their throats.
27:32So what?
27:34I want to dance.
27:38I want to dance.
27:42Oh, my love.
27:44My love.
27:46Put on a beautiful caftan.
27:48New gloves.
27:50You have to be beautiful
27:52with a beautiful lover.
27:54Just be careful.
27:56And a little stiletto.
28:02People are here.
28:04Everyone from Piedmont.
28:06The time has passed.
28:08Do you know what time is?
28:10The refugees are in Sestino.
28:12It's time to think about revenge.
28:14We're going to Florence
28:16with our little army.
28:18If we show up at night
28:20and surprise the guards,
28:22we'll win.
28:26I'll build my sister's mausoleum.
28:28But not me.
28:30Go outside, my friend.
28:32You're necessary for us.
28:34You mean a lot to the insurgents.
28:36Francis I expects you
28:38to fight for freedom.
28:40He turns to you as a leader
28:42of the Florentine republicans.
28:44Give this to the man
28:46who brought the letter
28:48to answer
28:50the king of France.
28:52Philip would have to go crazy
28:54to raise a weapon
28:56against the homeland.
28:58What's this new sentence?
29:00Mine.
29:04Are you dedicating
29:06the case of the refugees
29:08to a sound phrase?
29:10Be careful, father.
29:12It's not about Plinius.
29:14Think before you answer no.
29:16I've known for 60 years
29:18what to answer
29:20to the letter of the king of France.
29:22I don't know what words
29:24you're forcing me to say.
29:26Come with us, I beg you.
29:28You said you'd take me
29:30with you when I went to Pazzi.
29:32A despised father
29:34who wants to seek
29:36justice with a gun in his hand.
29:38Calling for help
29:40has nothing to do
29:42with a rebel.
29:44If it was about justice
29:46but about killing Alexander
29:48what has changed?
29:50Don't you love the homeland?
29:52If you loved it,
29:54you'd take the opportunity.
29:56Opportunity, yes?
29:58Father!
30:00In my anguish
30:02a stranger is any ambition.
30:04Leave me alone.
30:06Enough, I said!
30:08You stubborn old man.
30:12You're an incurable demagogue.
30:14You'll be the cause
30:16of our loss.
30:18Go wherever you want.
30:20We'll do without you.
30:24And not everything is lost
30:26if we don't have
30:28a traitor from Latvia.
30:38Don't set up at midnight.
30:40Lock yourself in my office
30:42and wait for me to call you.
30:44Go.
30:52What has this man done to me?
30:54When he puts his hand on his heart
30:56when he thinks about it
30:58when he hears I killed him
31:00who wouldn't ask why?
31:04He did others wrong
31:06but he was good to me.
31:08At least in his own way.
31:10If he hadn't come for me
31:12I'd have found him in Florence.
31:14Why?
31:20What do you want from me?
31:22I've come to tell you
31:24that Alexander will be killed tonight.
31:26If you love freely
31:28get ready for action tomorrow.
31:30Who will kill Alexander?
31:32Lorenzo Medici.
31:34You, Lorenzo.
31:36Go!
31:38I don't have time.
31:40Get ready for tomorrow.
31:42You want to kill the prince.
31:44You must be drunk.
31:48My father refused.
31:50There was no way to convince him.
31:52I won't tell our people.
31:54It would be a waste.
31:56Why?
31:58Tell them that Philip refused
32:00but not Peter.
32:02The insurgents want Philip.
32:04We can't do anything without him.
32:06Philip has the same name as me.
32:08Tell them that Strozzi will show up.
32:10That's enough.
32:12They'll ask me which Strozzi.
32:14If I don't tell Philip
32:16no one will leave.
32:18Fool.
32:20My horse is with Sestina.
32:22My horse is with Strozzi.
32:24I made it 12 miles at night.
32:26I won't saddle it now.
32:28What a stubborn head!
32:30Go, you'll get used to it.
32:32My friend is right.
32:34He's sure that Philip's name
32:36would give people courage.
32:38Fool.
32:40Wives and children dying of hunger
32:42should give you courage.
32:44Do you understand?
32:46Philip's name will fill your mouths
32:48Let's go, my friend.
32:50Go to hell.
32:52Tell your insurgents
32:54that if they don't want me
32:56the king of France will.
32:58Just be careful not to be
33:00under my command.
33:10Who's there?
33:12Duke Alexander will be killed tonight.
33:18If you're drunk,
33:20go and clean your house.
33:30Signor Pazzi!
33:32Signor Pazzi!
33:34I've come to tell you
33:36that Duke Alexander
33:38will be killed tonight.
33:40Be ready to act tomorrow.
33:42Who's going to kill the duke?
33:44I can't tell you.
33:46Be ready and I'll tell my friends.
33:48You've gone mad, fool.
33:50Go to hell.
33:52Your Highness,
33:54be kind to Lorenzo.
33:56Cardinal,
33:58sit down and have a glass of wine.
34:00Be kind to Lorenzo.
34:02The duke asked the bishop
34:04to send a messenger tonight.
34:06It's impossible.
34:08The bishop himself told me.
34:10Cardinal, calm down.
34:12I'm sure it's impossible.
34:14Your Highness,
34:16I believe you,
34:18but I've fulfilled my duty.
34:22Even if it's true,
34:24what's so scary about it?
34:26Go to the cafeteria.
34:28I saw Lorenzo
34:30jumping on beams and stones like a madman.
34:32I called out to him
34:34and I must admit
34:36that his look
34:38filled me with fear.
34:40Be sure
34:42that it's not dangerous for me.
34:44Should I tell you everything,
34:46even if it's your favorite?
34:48Your Highness, find out
34:50that he announced to two people
34:52that he would kill you tonight.
34:56I'll drink the wine, Cardinal.
34:58Don't you know
35:00that after sunset,
35:02Renzo is always drunk?
35:04Your Highness,
35:06warn Lorenzo.
35:08He told my three friends
35:10that you're more of a man.
35:12Your Highness,
35:14you know I can't be scared
35:16without a reason.
35:18I can prove what I'm saying.
35:20Sit down and drink with the Cardinal.
35:22But I have to go.
35:24I have my own business.
35:26It's time.
35:28Captain Sobolowy.
35:30Let's hurry.
35:32Your little one is waiting.
35:34What gloves should I put on?
35:36Military?
35:38Your Highness.
35:40All right.
35:42I'll act like a gallant today.
35:48What will you say to that, Cardinal?
35:52That God's will
35:54is fulfilled
35:56against people's will.
35:58I'm cold.
36:00It's cold in the devil's house.
36:14What are you doing there, my dear?
36:16I'm wrapping a pendant around a sword.
36:20I'm putting it in my pocket.
36:22I'm putting it in my pocket.
36:24I'm putting it in my pocket.
36:26I'm putting it in my pocket.
36:28I'm putting it in my pocket.
36:30It's good to always have a weapon at hand.
36:34You know
36:36I don't like eloquent women.
36:38To avoid arguments,
36:40I'll go to bed.
36:42I heard that Katarzyna is more eloquent.
36:48Tell me.
36:50Why did you ask
36:52for the horse of Bishop Marci?
36:54To visit my brother.
36:56He says he's seriously ill.
37:00Go and get the horse.
37:02I'm going.
37:24I'm going.
37:54Are you asleep?
38:18Are you asleep?
38:20Yes.
38:24My hand.
38:44My hand.
38:46My hand.
39:02Are you ready?
39:10Bite my finger.
39:16Dear God.
39:18It's the Duke of Florence.
39:36What a gentle wind.
39:40What a clean air.
39:42Breathe.
39:44Oh, God.
39:46What a calmness.
39:48I'm getting used to it.
39:50Wait.
39:52We'll take off the curtains.
40:08Give me the key.
40:10I don't want the neighbors to hear.
40:12Have you forgotten
40:14that they're used to our whispers?
40:16Go.
40:24The Duke hasn't come back yet.
40:26It's getting more and more disturbing.
40:28He's coming.
40:30Did you find out anything?
40:32I don't want to say.
40:34Cardinal Czibo locked himself
40:36in the Duke's office.
40:38What did the Duke find?
40:40I don't know.
40:42It's a terrible thing.
40:44No news from the Duke.
40:46Didn't you say
40:48you saw him yesterday?
40:50Didn't you think he was sick?
40:52I can tell you
40:54that he was murdered.
40:56Murdered? By whom?
40:58As you said.
41:00Did the Cardinal know?
41:02Yes.
41:04What should we do?
41:06The crowd is going to the palace.
41:08This terrible news has already spread.
41:10If it's confirmed, we'll die.
41:12They'll murder us.
41:14What will the crowd do?
41:16But what should we do?
41:18Can I see the Duke, gentlemen?
41:20This is my relative.
41:22He's just arrived from Germany.
41:24They want to present him to His Highness.
41:26Tell him, Eminencio,
41:28that you want to have reasons for him.
41:30I don't know what to say.
41:32More and more people are waiting
41:34to see the Duke.
41:36Is he buried?
41:38Yes.
41:40If the Duke found out about his death,
41:42we wouldn't be able to avoid others.
41:44We'll have to postpone the public funeral.
41:46For now, we'll take him to the carpet.
41:48But what will happen to him?
41:50Will we soon be accepted by His Highness?
41:52What do you think, gentlemen?
41:54Yes, in an hour or two.
41:56The Duke spent the night in a masquerade
41:58and is resting now.
42:00Let's go.
42:02What do you think?
42:14Excellent.
42:16But what has been done?
42:18The Duke is dead.
42:20We have to choose another one
42:22as soon as possible.
42:24If we don't have the Duke today,
42:26in the evening, tomorrow,
42:28in the morning,
42:30a moment before the wedding,
42:32I propose Octavian Medici.
42:34But why?
42:36He's not the first one, according to the law.
42:38And if we chose the Cardinal?
42:40Indeed, why wouldn't we choose the Cardinal?
42:42If, contrary to all the laws,
42:44you left him the only decision in this matter.
42:46He will lead it perfectly.
42:48Let him ask the Pope first.
42:50He just did.
42:52The Pope sent a delegation by courier.
42:54By courier?
42:56Yes, by courier, which the Cardinal
42:58has to go to the place
43:00to come back.
43:02Do they have us as children?
43:04Gentlemen, believe me,
43:06we will do the best if we choose the Duke of Florence,
43:08the natural son of Alexander, Julian.
43:10Bravo, bravo.
43:12A five-year-old child, because Julian is five years old.
43:14Don't you see?
43:16What is being celebrated here is the idea of the Cardinal.
43:18For him, it would be the government,
43:20and for the child, it would be the cat.
43:22I will leave this room
43:24if I have to listen to such projects.
43:26Gentlemen, don't spare a moment or food.
43:32Gentlemen,
43:34the Cardinal wrote to Cosme Mediceus,
43:36without asking us.
43:38The Cardinal also wrote to the military commanders
43:40in Pisa, Arezzo and Pistoia.
43:42As for Medici,
43:44he will be here tomorrow with all his people.
43:46Alexander Vitelli
43:48is already with the Fortezza garrison.
43:50As for Lorenzo,
43:52he was thrown into a chase
43:54before he could think.
43:56So let this Cardinal of yours
43:58report to the Duke immediately.
44:00It will be shorter.
44:02I was ordered to ask you
44:04to vote for Cosme Mediceus,
44:06who would receive the temporary title
44:08of the Minister of the Republic of Florence.
44:12A poor man,
44:14if I take care of him.
44:16So, gentlemen, to vote.
44:18Cosme really has the first rights
44:20after Alexander.
44:22He is my closest relative.
44:24I know him very little.
44:26He will be the best duke in the world.
44:28If you would say
44:30the lightest or the smoothest,
44:32you would be closer to the truth.
44:36I object to such voting
44:38formally and on behalf of all citizens.
44:40Why?
44:42The Republic does not need
44:44dukes, kings and lords.
44:46This is my vote.
44:48Your vote is only one vote.
44:50We will not get around without him.
44:52So I say goodbye and wash my hands.
44:54Palla, Palla,
44:56you are too violent.
44:58Leave me alone.
45:00I am 62 years old.
45:02You can't do much wrong to me.
45:06Your votes, gentlemen.
45:20Speak up.
45:22Did the courier go to Trebio?
45:24Yes, Excellency.
45:26Cosme will be here tomorrow morning.
45:28Unless he refuses.
45:30Why would he refuse?
45:32My God, if he refuses, what will happen to us?
45:3415 miles to Trebio,
45:3615 back, all day lost.
45:38We should have chosen someone
45:40who is closer.
45:42It's hard to choose.
45:44Cosme will probably agree.
45:46It's all very tiring.
45:48It's all very tiring,
45:50gentlemen.
45:56Philippe,
45:58I bring you
46:00the most beautiful
46:02necklace for your crown.
46:04What is it? A key?
46:06Yes.
46:08This key opens my room
46:10where Alexander Medici is.
46:12Killed.
46:14By my hand.
46:16Unbelievable.
46:20Take it or leave it.
46:22You'll learn from the others.
46:24Alexander is dead?
46:26Is it possible?
46:28What would you say if the Republicans
46:30offered you the title of prince?
46:32I wouldn't accept it, my friend.
46:34What are you saying? Unbelievable.
46:36Why? It's quite simple for me.
46:38Yes, like killing Alexander for me.
46:40Why don't you believe me?
46:42Believe and bless.
46:44Yes, I believe.
46:46You are as you said.
46:48Give me your hand.
46:50The prince is dead.
46:52My joy is free from hatred.
46:54It's love,
46:56the purest, the holiest love.
46:58God is my witness.
47:00Calm down, calm down.
47:02Nothing has been done yet,
47:04except for me.
47:06Not to mention my bruised ribs.
47:08What kind of horse did you give me?
47:10You've gone too far, my friend.
47:12I've opened all the Republican doors.
47:14I told them to shoot the guns,
47:16that Alexander won't live when they wake up.
47:18I think they've woken up a few times,
47:20but they've gone back to sleep.
47:22You'd make people gods
47:24if you didn't despise them.
47:26I don't despise people, I know them.
47:28Do you want to cross out the history of the world?
47:32You need sparks to light a forest.
47:36But a spark can shoot a stone
47:38and the forest will be on fire.
47:40A spark can light a century.
47:44I don't cross out the history,
47:46but I wasn't there.
47:48Let me call you Brutus.
48:00Oh God.
48:02Oh God.
48:10...after his death.
48:12The right to appoint all offices,
48:14to have all benefits
48:16and state privileges,
48:18regardless of origin,
48:20if he leaves the municipality,
48:22granting each municipality
48:24past and future,
48:26ordinary and extraordinary.
48:34So what, Filipe?
48:36You didn't want to believe
48:38that I killed Alexander.
48:40Now you see that I killed him.
48:44Are these his own words?
48:46Yes, Your Majesty.
48:48From the king himself.
48:50You may leave.
48:52The king of France
48:54concealing Italy's freedom.
48:56It's like a flea
48:58that defends a pretty woman
49:00before another flea.
49:02He defends her
49:04like a bird.
49:06Otherwise,
49:08there's a path in front of me.
49:12That damned Lorenzaczo
49:14who thought
49:16he was someone.
49:18Instead, he ran away
49:20like a frightened bird.
49:22I don't see anything here
49:24that would be worthy of me.
49:26Let's throw
49:28those scoundrels
49:30who don't see the world
49:32out of my father's eyes
49:34and watch me from dawn to dusk
49:36to see if I'm like him.
49:40That's not why
49:42I threatened
49:44to lead the bandits.
49:58They write
50:00that my mother died.
50:14Come.
50:16Let's take a walk.
50:18I beg you,
50:20don't tempt fate, Lorenzo.
50:22You wander around the city
50:24as if there's no death sentence.
50:26Let's go out.
50:28I torment you
50:30with inactivity.
50:32It's your misfortune.
50:36You're not
50:38a friend without guilt.
50:40And that
50:42the republicans
50:44didn't do anything in Florence
50:46is my big mistake.
50:48That hundreds of students
50:50capable and determined
50:52were thrown out
50:54that Cosme Mediceus
50:56was chosen unanimously, I admit.
50:58These are unforgivable mistakes
51:00for which I am responsible.
51:02Let's not judge accidents
51:04until they come to an end.
51:08We have to leave Italy.
51:10Life is still ahead of you.
51:14I was a machine capable of killing
51:16but only once.
51:18Fortunately
51:22you were only in murders.
51:26You can be an honest man
51:28from now on.
51:30Why do you want to die?
51:32I'll repeat my own words.
51:36I was
51:38an honest man.
51:40Maybe I could become one again
51:42if I wasn't so bored.
51:46I still like wine,
51:48games,
51:50girls.
51:52It's enough
51:54to make me a looser
51:56but not enough to want to be one.
51:58Let's leave.
52:00Let's leave, please.
52:02They'll kill you at last
52:04on these walkways.
52:06It's fun to look at them.
52:08The reward is so great
52:10that they become almost brave.
52:12Yesterday, some bossy drongal
52:14followed me, a good square,
52:16not being able to decide.
52:18He had a knife the size of a rose,
52:20poor man, he had such a pathetic face.
52:22Maybe he's from a dying family.
52:24Lorenzo, Lorenzo.
52:26Your heart is very sick.
52:30He was an honest man.
52:34Why should we give respect to cowardice?
52:36What kind of people
52:38is happy for them?
52:40Why do you like it?
52:42I'm going to take a walk.
52:52Let's go.
53:22Lorenzo, Lorenzo.
53:40Father, Lorenzo is dead.
53:42Some man is hidden
53:44behind the doors of the house.
53:46He doesn't come out.
53:48People threw themselves at him
53:50and dragged him to the lagoon.
53:52Terrible.
53:54Terrible.
53:56So even without a grave.
54:08Lord, you are the prince of Florence.
54:12Before you receive the crown from me,
54:14which I give you in the name of the Pope
54:16and the Emperor,
54:18promise me one thing.
54:20What do I have to promise?
54:22That you will always do justice,
54:24that you will never go against the authority
54:26of Charles V,
54:28that you will avenge the death of Alexander,
54:30that you will always treat
54:32Signora Giuliana and Signora Giulia well,
54:34his natural children.
54:36How do I have to promise it?
54:38In the Gospel.
54:42I swear to God
54:44and to you, Cardinal.
54:46Give me your hand now.
54:56Great nobles,
54:58powerful gentlemen,
55:00I would like to thank you
55:02for the trust
55:04that you wanted
55:06to give me
55:08at such a young age.
55:12At the same time, I swear
55:14that for my first duty
55:16and a good heart
55:18I will defend justice
55:20and dignity.
55:22I will respect everyone
55:24so that no one is ever touched
55:26on the honor or the name.
55:30As for state affairs,
55:32I swear not to stray
55:34from the extensive advice of your dignity,
55:36which I give to everyone
55:38and humbly recommend.
55:44Amen.
56:14THE END
56:44THE END
57:14THE END
57:44THE END
58:14THE END
