00:00:00If you want to wait for me, I'm leaving in 15 minutes. It's cold, like all devils.
00:00:27Patience, Your Highness. Patience.
00:00:29She was supposed to leave at midnight. It's midnight and she can't be seen.
00:00:32If she doesn't come, you can call me a fool, and mother an honest woman.
00:00:35It cost me a thousand zloty.
00:00:37We only paid in the afternoon.
00:00:39I beg you, Your Highness.
00:00:42Those big, dazzling eyes can't deceive.
00:00:46What's more interesting for a connoisseur than to see the future of a 15-year-old child.
00:00:52To develop, with a drop of sin, to discolour friendship.
00:00:55Oh, fatherly advice.
00:00:58Everything so that Your Highness can spend a luxurious night.
00:01:01They still don't give a sign. Maybe they're still at the ball.
00:01:04Let's go to the prince's house. We'll knock on the window.
00:01:06What's there to be ashamed of? The girl was paid in the afternoon.
00:01:09Let's go.
00:01:10Uncle is right.
00:01:11Gabriela! Gabriela, where are you going?
00:01:16It's probably this poor brother, suddenly turned into a lunatic.
00:01:19Lorenzo will lead you to the palace by the side entrance.
00:01:21As for us, we have nothing to fear.
00:01:24Where are you?
00:01:26Hola, stop!
00:01:27We are your friends, good man.
00:01:30Where's my sister? What do you want here?
00:01:33Your sister slipped out of the nest.
00:01:36Open the gate.
00:01:38Take out the spade and defend yourself.
00:01:46Calm down, Mr. Fool.
00:01:48Why are you so hot?
00:01:50People like you murder people without punishment.
00:01:53But even if I were to die...
00:01:55I won't die silent like so many others.
00:01:57If the prince doesn't know that his city is a forest full of
00:02:00thieves and embarrassed girls, I'll tell him.
00:02:03Should I kill him?
00:02:05Your Highness?
00:02:11Kill this nobleman.
00:02:13Go to sleep, my friend.
00:02:15Tomorrow we'll send you a few ducats.
00:02:18It's Alexander Medici.
00:02:20Take care of yourself, Prostak,
00:02:22but don't boast about his visits,
00:02:24even if he takes care of his ears a little.
00:02:27I'll be back.
00:02:47My head hurts from this mess.
00:02:49It's the devil with their wedding.
00:02:51I haven't slept all night.
00:02:53It's said that the neighbor
00:02:55turned her head from side to side.
00:02:57When a man is young, he can't sleep
00:02:59when he hears the sound of a violin.
00:03:01It's the devil with their wedding.
00:03:03With those who dance on it
00:03:05and with those who take it out.
00:03:07Be careful, canario!
00:03:09You're a canario yourself!
00:03:11Let the horses pass.
00:03:13Please, this is against the rules.
00:03:15Wajtaci drink from the vat.
00:03:17A horse for his height.
00:03:19Let's move.
00:03:21The prince is leaving.
00:03:23Are you going, Giuliano?
00:03:25No, your highness, not yet.
00:03:27Good, good.
00:03:29It's beautiful like a demon, your highness,
00:03:31if only he could get rid of his wife.
00:03:33Salviati, you're drunk.
00:03:35Let the horses pass.
00:03:43Andoliva!
00:03:45Who's playing murder here?
00:03:47Don't you see, signor Maurizio?
00:03:49Look out the window.
00:03:51You're all devils.
00:03:53You've hurt my horse.
00:03:57You're like a ray of sun.
00:03:59You've burnt my hair.
00:04:01I'm not a gentleman.
00:04:03What eyes you have, my child.
00:04:05How sweet it would be to wipe
00:04:07that delicate, fresh arm.
00:04:09Tell me, what should I do
00:04:11to leave your room at night?
00:04:13Take off your shoes.
00:04:15No, I don't know yet
00:04:17when we'll sleep together.
00:04:21Oh, my dear.
00:04:23My little Strozzi
00:04:25has run away in the ponds.
00:04:27You've got angry,
00:04:29sir Salviati.
00:04:31Oh, sir's anger
00:04:33and morning rain.
00:04:39I'd like to take you with me,
00:04:41my little one,
00:04:43with your great spade
00:04:45that has been tied to your feet.
00:04:47But be patient.
00:04:49Really, Mark Rabin, what are these tears for?
00:04:52Who would have thought that my brother is going to Palestine?
00:04:54He is in danger in the village.
00:04:57Don't feel sorry for her for these beautiful tears.
00:04:59She doesn't necessarily have to show such sadness.
00:05:01Doesn't she have the right to cry?
00:05:03Did all of them become afraid of love?
00:05:05No.
00:05:06There are still tears of love.
00:05:08Of all the best.
00:05:10Don't wipe them from my face.
00:05:12Let them stay with me as long as possible.
00:05:15What horse are you riding, father?
00:05:18Come with me to the courtyard.
00:05:20You will see.
00:05:26It seems to me that today I was supposed to hear your confession.
00:05:30Mark Rabin.
00:05:31Oh, not now, Prince Cardinal.
00:05:33Maybe in the evening, if your eminence has time.
00:05:35Or tomorrow.
00:05:36This moment is not for me.
00:05:38If the servant of God had the right to mourn,
00:05:40I would envy my brother.
00:05:42Such a short journey, ordinary, calm.
00:05:46Now to the possession a few steps from here,
00:05:48and so much sadness.
00:05:50So much sensitive sadness at the farewell.
00:05:52Were you at the ball at Nazik yesterday?
00:05:55Yes, I was.
00:05:57And the prince dressed as a nun?
00:05:59Why as a nun?
00:06:01Apparently, that's what he was wearing.
00:06:03But maybe it's not true.
00:06:05It's true.
00:06:07Oh, Malaspina.
00:06:09These are sad times for everything that is holy.
00:06:11You can respect what is holy,
00:06:13but you can't dress like a nun,
00:06:15without any bad intentions,
00:06:17towards our church.
00:06:19An example is dangerous, not an intention.
00:06:21I'm not like you, Cardinal.
00:06:23It annoys me.
00:06:25Maybe I'm not quite aware of what is allowed,
00:06:27and what is not allowed,
00:06:29according to your mysterious rules.
00:06:31God knows where they lead.
00:06:33Those who, taking words for a whip,
00:06:35make them with a hammer and a blunt blade,
00:06:37do not always realize that behind the words
00:06:39there are thoughts,
00:06:41but the prince is young,
00:06:43and it is assumed that in a nice dress of a nun,
00:06:45he was very handsome.
00:06:47Yes, he was great in it.
00:06:49There were only a few drops of blood missing.
00:06:51How much do you hate this poor prince?
00:06:53Or you,
00:06:55who are his right hand.
00:06:57It doesn't matter that the prince of Florence
00:06:59is a servant of Charles V and a deputy of the Pope.
00:07:01It doesn't matter to you.
00:07:03It doesn't matter to you, my husband's brother,
00:07:05that a German shadow falls on the citadel under our sky,
00:07:07that the emperor speaks through all his lips,
00:07:09that Rospusta shrinks to slavery
00:07:11and shakes the bells when the people cry.
00:07:13Oh, let only the need come,
00:07:15and Clare will ring all the bells
00:07:17to silence this cry
00:07:19and wake up the imperial eagle
00:07:21if he fell asleep
00:07:23on our unfortunate roofs.
00:07:27Aniolo,
00:07:29what's new?
00:07:31There is a letter, Your Eminence.
00:07:33Give it to me.
00:07:35It is a sin, Your Eminence.
00:07:37Give it to me, Your Eminence.
00:07:41Either you will be mine,
00:07:43or you will bring misfortune
00:07:45on me, on yourself,
00:07:47and on our two houses.
00:07:49The prince has a laconic style,
00:07:51but he is not devoid of strength.
00:07:53The problem is
00:07:55that Margarine already wants to leave,
00:07:57or is still hesitating.
00:07:59The conscription lasts up to two months.
00:08:01That's a lot for Alexandra.
00:08:03It should be enough for Ricciardo.
00:08:05Ricciardo, give this letter to Margarine
00:08:07and keep my word.
00:08:09You can count on me.
00:08:15Your Eminence, I have news from Rome today.
00:08:17Pavel III has sent your highness
00:08:19numerous blessings
00:08:21and wishes you all the best.
00:08:23Only wishes, Valerian.
00:08:25His Holiness is afraid
00:08:27that the prince, too humble,
00:08:29will cause him new troubles.
00:08:31The people are not used
00:08:33to absolute orders.
00:08:35It seems that the emperor
00:08:37said the same during his last visit to your highness.
00:08:39What a beautiful horse, Messer Maurizio.
00:08:41Look at the devil's tail.
00:08:43Your highness is wonderful.
00:08:45So my valour should be cut
00:08:47by a few more bad branches.
00:08:49The emperor and the pope made me a king,
00:08:51but the pearl they put in my hand
00:08:53smells like an ax.
00:08:55I am a priest, your highness.
00:08:57If the words that duty tells me
00:08:59to repeat faithfully
00:09:01my heart refuses to speak further.
00:09:03I know, I know that you are a man of truth.
00:09:05You are the only honest priest
00:09:07I have ever known in my life.
00:09:09Honesty is of no use to me.
00:09:11I will not take off any clothes.
00:09:13And among people
00:09:15there are more good people.
00:09:17That's all, Valerian.
00:09:19May I speak, your highness?
00:09:21The matter is easy to explain.
00:09:23Speak.
00:09:25The customs of your court have been unravelled
00:09:27by the treachery of the pope.
00:09:29The judge of the actions of the prince
00:09:31is only he.
00:09:33The pope only demands the release of
00:09:35Lorenzo Medici, his justice.
00:09:37His justice?
00:09:39As far as I know, Lorenzo never offended the pope.
00:09:41Unless Clemens VII, my cousin,
00:09:43who is in hell today.
00:09:45Clemens VII allowed Libertine to leave his country,
00:09:47who, drunk, hit his head
00:09:49with a statue on the arch of Constantinople.
00:09:51Paul III cannot forgive
00:09:53the leader of the Florentine rebellion.
00:09:55There is a funny figure
00:09:57in the court of this Alexandre Farnese.
00:09:59If the dissolution irritates him so much,
00:10:01why don't you take care of your banker,
00:10:03dear Piero Farnese,
00:10:05who so beautifully defended himself
00:10:07with the bishop Sfano.
00:10:09How many times do I have to tell you
00:10:11about this poor Renzo,
00:10:13the case of the court will come to light.
00:10:15I support the arts,
00:10:17just like everyone else,
00:10:19and I have the first artists of Italy
00:10:21in my court.
00:10:23But I do not understand the respect of the pope
00:10:25There will be no tolerance in him.
00:10:27The people call Lorenzo Lorenzaccio.
00:10:29It is known that he cares about your entertainment.
00:10:31That's enough.
00:10:33Enough, Messr. Maurizio.
00:10:35You forget that Lorenzo Medici is the cousin of Alexander.
00:10:37Oh, Cardinal!
00:10:39Listen to these gentlemen.
00:10:41They say that the pope
00:10:43is worsened by the customs
00:10:45of the honest Renzo
00:10:47and that it seems to harm my government.
00:10:49Master Francesco Molza
00:10:51gave a speech in the Roman Academy
00:10:53in which he speaks against
00:10:55the stormer of the Arch of Constantine.
00:10:57Enough.
00:10:59Enough, gentlemen,
00:11:01or you will make me angry.
00:11:03Renzo. Renzo should be dangerous.
00:11:05This cowardly,
00:11:07old woman,
00:11:09pale witch Hultaya,
00:11:11a dreamer who goes to school day and night
00:11:13without a sword,
00:11:15because he is afraid he will see her shadow
00:11:17next to him,
00:11:19and a philosopher,
00:11:21because he is afraid he will see her shadow.
00:11:23And what do I care about the Latin speech
00:11:25and the conversation of the community?
00:11:27I like Lorenzo and Lorenzo will stay here.
00:11:29If I were to be afraid of this man,
00:11:31it is neither for your court,
00:11:33nor for Florence,
00:11:35but for you, Prince.
00:11:37You are kidding, Cardinal.
00:11:39Do you want me to tell you the truth?
00:11:41Everything I know about these damned
00:11:43scoundrels, about these angry Republicans
00:11:45who are plotting against me,
00:11:47I know from Lorenzo.
00:11:49He will squeeze in everywhere
00:11:51and tell me everything.
00:11:53Didn't he find a way to reach
00:11:55these scoundrels from the bottom of hell?
00:11:57Yes, for sure. He is my rival.
00:11:59But if his rivalry harms anyone,
00:12:01it doesn't harm me.
00:12:03Please, please, look.
00:12:05Look at this wounded body,
00:12:07at these bruised eyes,
00:12:09at these weak, weak hands.
00:12:11This man should be dangerous.
00:12:13You should be proud of him.
00:12:15Come on, Renzo.
00:12:17We've been talking about you
00:12:19for an hour.
00:12:21Welcome,
00:12:23my cousin's friend.
00:12:25Do you know the news?
00:12:27You have been cursed.
00:12:29In Latin, my friend.
00:12:31The Cardinal calls you
00:12:33a dangerous man.
00:12:35Messer Maurizio is the same.
00:12:37And as for his own valour,
00:12:39he is too honest of a man
00:12:41to even utter your name.
00:12:43And for whom is this dangerous eminence?
00:12:45For priests or for saints in heaven?
00:12:47A court dog
00:12:49can get angry
00:12:51just like any other dog.
00:12:53The Cardinal would sound better
00:12:55in Latin.
00:12:57But said in Tuscan
00:12:59makes the answer easier.
00:13:01Oh, Messer Maurizio.
00:13:03I didn't notice.
00:13:05I'm sorry, I had the sun in my eyes.
00:13:07But you look good.
00:13:09It seems you have a new suit on.
00:13:11New like your joke.
00:13:13For a man like him,
00:13:15who has a short neck and hairy hands,
00:13:17it's not healthy to sleep without a coat.
00:13:19One who wants to offend others
00:13:21should know how to defend himself.
00:13:23I wouldn't part with a sword in your place.
00:13:25If you were told you were a soldier,
00:13:27you were misled.
00:13:29I'm just a humble lover.
00:13:31Your joke is a sharp, but fragile sword.
00:13:33The scoundrel defends it.
00:13:35Let everyone make use of it.
00:13:37A stolen sword in the presence of a priest?
00:13:39Let him.
00:13:41I'll be your secondant.
00:13:43Let him have the sword.
00:13:45What are you saying, Duke?
00:13:47What's this?
00:13:49Your happiness is fading so quickly?
00:13:51You're trembling, cousin?
00:13:53You bring shame to our name.
00:13:55I'm Mediceus, but a fool.
00:13:57I should be better than you,
00:13:59a child of the right hand.
00:14:01The Mediceus will not let you
00:14:03drink without punishment.
00:14:05You're laughing at me.
00:14:07I was laughing a moment ago.
00:14:09I think we've gone too far.
00:14:11A stolen sword in your presence
00:14:13is a crime that demands punishment.
00:14:15Who dares to speak when I speak?
00:14:17Maybe he just wanted to joke.
00:14:19Just like Messer Mauricio.
00:14:21Can't you see I'm still joking?
00:14:23And why the devil should I
00:14:25take it seriously?
00:14:31So what?
00:14:33Didn't I tell you?
00:14:35No one knows him better than me.
00:14:37Give me your hand.
00:14:39Let me take you to your mother's house.
00:14:41A coward over a coward.
00:14:43A son of a whore.
00:14:45Calm down, Messer Mauricio.
00:14:47Watch your words.
00:14:49Poor young man.
00:14:51Does your highness believe this?
00:14:53I wonder how I could not believe it.
00:14:55It's very strange.
00:14:57That's why she believes it.
00:14:59Can you imagine that Mediceus
00:15:01would let himself be humiliated in public?
00:15:03Besides, it's not the first time he's done it.
00:15:05Can you take a look at the spade?
00:15:07It's very strange.
00:15:09Very.
00:15:13Why doesn't the prince come here?
00:15:15How much joy
00:15:17these wonderful
00:15:19Roman churches give to Christians.
00:15:21Which man could not be indifferent to them?
00:15:23Is it not a real
00:15:25paradise for the heart?
00:15:27An artist? A priest? A soldier?
00:15:29A merchant? They won't find everything
00:15:31they love.
00:15:33The harmony of organs.
00:15:35The shimmering colors of acusamites
00:15:37and woven fabrics.
00:15:39The works of the best masters.
00:15:41Warm and sweet scents
00:15:43coming out of the chambers.
00:15:45All this, with its worldly appearance,
00:15:47can destroy the harsh enemy
00:15:49of all comfort.
00:15:51For me, there is nothing more beautiful
00:15:53than a religion that unites people
00:15:55in such ways.
00:15:57A religion.
00:15:59It's not a predatory bird.
00:16:01It's a gentle dove
00:16:03that feels over every feeling,
00:16:05over every dream.
00:16:07Yes, certainly, Eminence.
00:16:09Your words
00:16:11are a great truth, but also
00:16:13a great lie.
00:16:15Like everything else in the world.
00:16:17Eminence,
00:16:19I'm so glad that your dignity
00:16:21speaks in such a way of holy tolerance
00:16:23and sense of admiration.
00:16:25Tell the stranger that I thank you
00:16:27for your words.
00:16:29For a noble man,
00:16:31what he has in his heart
00:16:33is the greatest happiness
00:16:35one can desire.
00:16:37You are a young friar.
00:16:39My works are not worth much.
00:16:41I know more how to love art
00:16:43than to worship it.
00:16:45I spent all my youth in churches
00:16:47where I could not worship
00:16:49Raphael and the divine Bonaparte.
00:16:51You have the heart of a true artist.
00:16:53Come to my palace.
00:16:55I want you to work for me.
00:16:57It's not a great honor.
00:16:59I'm just a humble servant of the holy religion of painting.
00:17:01But let's wait for tomorrow.
00:17:03Show me, boy, what you have in your hands.
00:17:05It's a painting, but I dare not show it
00:17:07to such great experts.
00:17:09It's just a sketch of a wonderful dream.
00:17:11A landscape or a portrait?
00:17:13How do you look at it?
00:17:15The soul of dignity trembles with me.
00:17:17It's the view of Campo Santo.
00:17:19And how far from here to immortality?
00:17:21Immortality is faith.
00:17:23Those to whom God gave wings
00:17:25will receive it with a smile.
00:17:27Come to me.
00:17:29You will paint Macapire for me, naked.
00:17:31I have no respect for my brush,
00:17:33but I respect my art.
00:17:35I cannot paint a portrait of a courtesan.
00:17:37God gave himself the effort to create it.
00:17:39Why can't he give himself the effort
00:17:41to paint it?
00:17:43Do you want to make a view of Florence for me?
00:17:45Yes, please.
00:17:47How do you look at it?
00:17:49I will stand on the left side,
00:17:51on the left bank of the Arno.
00:17:53From that place, the perspective is the widest.
00:17:55And you will paint Florence.
00:17:57Squares, houses, streets.
00:17:59Why can't you paint a courtesan
00:18:01if you can paint a burger?
00:18:03I was taught to speak like this about my mother.
00:18:05Who do you call your mother?
00:18:07Florence, sir.
00:18:09So you must be a banker
00:18:11if your mother is a public girl.
00:18:13Art, this divine flower,
00:18:15sometimes needs fertilizers
00:18:17so that the earth becomes fatter and can give birth.
00:18:19How do you understand that?
00:18:21Peaceful and happy
00:18:23sometimes glow with pure, but pale light.
00:18:25The angelic harp has many strings.
00:18:27The zephyr can move the weakest
00:18:29and from their chords produce
00:18:31luxurious and sweet harmony.
00:18:33But the silver string
00:18:35only vibrates under the northern wind.
00:18:37It is the most beautiful
00:18:39and noblest of strings,
00:18:41and yet it needs the touch of a raw hand.
00:18:43Ah, so a happy nation
00:18:45gives birth to great poets.
00:18:47I would like to be an alchemist
00:18:49I like you, boy.
00:18:51People can die of poverty,
00:18:53nations from hunger.
00:18:55This only encourages the imagination
00:18:57of a merciful Lord.
00:18:59Just tell me, charming poet,
00:19:01how do you combine this with your piety?
00:19:03I do not laugh at the misfortune of families.
00:19:05I only say that poetry is the sweetest suffering
00:19:07and that it loves its sisters.
00:19:09I sympathize with unhappy people,
00:19:11but I think they give birth to great artists.
00:19:13On the battlefields, lead grows,
00:19:15in the rotting earth,
00:19:17your carton is destroyed.
00:19:19Do you want a new one?
00:19:21In the colours of my service.
00:19:23I do not belong to anyone
00:19:25when the mind wants to be free.
00:19:27The body must be free, too.
00:19:29You know what?
00:19:31I feel like telling my lodger
00:19:33to apply a stick to you.
00:19:35Why?
00:19:37Because it comes to my mind.
00:19:39You have been smoking since birth or by accident?
00:19:41I am not a smoker.
00:19:43You are a smoker or a madman.
00:19:45You are the first and the best smoker in Mediceus.
00:19:47For your beautiful reasons,
00:19:49you can stab yourself with a stick
00:19:51and no one will say a word.
00:19:53I love my mother, Florence.
00:19:55That is why I am here.
00:19:57I know that a citizen can be killed
00:19:59in broad daylight in the middle of the street
00:20:01if he is so capricious with those who are at the helm.
00:20:03That is why I have this stiletto at my belt.
00:20:05You know that, Prince,
00:20:07it happens to kill people for fun.
00:20:09Would you give it up
00:20:11if he hit you?
00:20:13He raised his hand to me.
00:20:15You are talking to me.
00:20:19Why would I hit him?
00:20:21I do no harm to anyone.
00:20:23I spend all my days at work.
00:20:25On Sundays, I go to the confession
00:20:27or to the Most Holy Lady.
00:20:29The monks think that I have a nice voice.
00:20:31They give me a white dress,
00:20:33a red towel
00:20:35and I sing in the choir,
00:20:37sometimes a small solo part.
00:20:39And these are the only occasions
00:20:41In the evening, I go to my lover
00:20:43and when the night is beautiful,
00:20:45I spend it on the balcony.
00:20:47No one knows me,
00:20:49I don't know anyone
00:20:51whose life or death could be useful.
00:20:53Are you a republican?
00:20:55Do you love the Prince?
00:20:57I am an artist.
00:20:59I love my mother and my lover.
00:21:01Come to me.
00:21:03I would like you to make a beautiful painting
00:21:05for the day of my wedding.
00:21:11What is this?
00:21:13A Venetian painting?
00:21:15Yes, noble lady.
00:21:17Your Majesty,
00:21:19I order you to cut off
00:21:21a few of your elbows.
00:21:23Indeed.
00:21:25I think I see a Juliet on a napkin.
00:21:27I pass by the entrance
00:21:29to the church.
00:21:31It's a gallant.
00:21:33It's a braggart.
00:21:35Show me a silk poncho.
00:21:37I think this lady
00:21:39is quite small.
00:21:41Stop talking nonsense.
00:21:43If you see a Juliet,
00:21:45go and tell her I want to talk to her.
00:21:47I'll go and tell her.
00:21:51What a stupid officer.
00:21:53What's wrong with you?
00:21:55You'll see that this man is very useful.
00:21:59Give me a glass of lemonade,
00:22:01a fine one.
00:22:03Have you been to church, gentlemen?
00:22:05What do you say about the sermon?
00:22:07Father.
00:22:09If I'm to be honest,
00:22:11I found the sermon to be too beautiful.
00:22:13Sometimes I would preach the sermon,
00:22:15but I never cared
00:22:17if my words made you feel sorry for me.
00:22:19I was more interested
00:22:21in the tears on the face of a good man.
00:22:23This noble lady,
00:22:25like St. Silouan,
00:22:27has no pride in her.
00:22:29Isn't it unpleasant
00:22:31when a great lord
00:22:33comes to his neighbors politely?
00:22:35There are ladies here
00:22:37who want to see me,
00:22:39but I don't undress
00:22:41any of them,
00:22:43except for your great-grandmother.
00:22:45Don't you have any dignity?
00:22:47The ladies have left,
00:22:49but I think they'll come back.
00:22:51Here are ten oxen of oxamite
00:22:53and four pairs of ponchos
00:22:55that I have for them.
00:22:57Oh, what a beautiful woman
00:22:59you see there.
00:23:01Where did I see her?
00:23:03She is one of the exiles.
00:23:05Do you have any family?
00:23:07I have two great-grandparents,
00:23:09a father and an uncle.
00:23:11There is no man in our house
00:23:13except for me.
00:23:15Isn't it Luisa from Trotsky?
00:23:17Yes, she is your dignity.
00:23:19There are not many ladies
00:23:21from our nobility
00:23:23whom the king does not recognize.
00:23:25I saw Luisa at the ball
00:23:27and I expect
00:23:29that soon we will sleep together.
00:23:31I gave her a slap
00:23:33without any bad intentions.
00:23:35I held her foot
00:23:37and that's how it started.
00:23:39I don't know if you realize
00:23:41that you're talking about my sister.
00:23:43I know that perfectly well.
00:23:45All women are created
00:23:47to sleep with men.
00:23:49Your sister can sleep with me.
00:23:51Is it my fault?
00:23:53I like this honest man.
00:23:55When he talks about his sister,
00:23:57he forgets to take the rest from the table.
00:23:59Don't be afraid.
00:24:01I'm ready.
00:24:05Father, I have sinned.
00:24:07Did you order the confiterol?
00:24:09Yes.
00:24:11We can start.
00:24:13I confess that I have sinned
00:24:15by being angry, impudent
00:24:17and offensive
00:24:19to our father, the Holy Pope.
00:24:21Go on.
00:24:23Yesterday, in a house,
00:24:25when I was talking
00:24:27about Bishop Svanu,
00:24:29I said that the Catholic Church
00:24:31is a stronghold of dissolution.
00:24:33Go on.
00:24:35I heard the words of those
00:24:37who were faithful to me
00:24:39that I swore to my husband.
00:24:41Whose words were those?
00:24:43I read a letter written in the same spirit.
00:24:45Who wrote that letter?
00:24:47I answer for what I did alone,
00:24:49not for what others did.
00:24:51My daughter,
00:24:53you shouldn't hide anything
00:24:55from me.
00:24:57I want to know
00:24:59whether you answered the letter.
00:25:01No, but I gave my word.
00:25:03What did you say?
00:25:05I agreed that the person
00:25:07who wrote the letter
00:25:09would see me
00:25:11when I asked for it.
00:25:13How did the meeting go?
00:25:15I already told you.
00:25:17I listened to the words
00:25:19that were in my honour.
00:25:21How did you answer them?
00:25:23No, my father.
00:25:31Yes, my father.
00:25:39My heart knows nothing about it.
00:25:43An honest woman
00:25:45shouldn't worry her husband
00:25:47with such statements.
00:25:53Did you have anything
00:25:55to confess to me?
00:25:57No, my father.
00:25:59Not even
00:26:01a gentle look
00:26:03or a stolen kiss?
00:26:05No, my father.
00:26:07Are you sure, my daughter?
00:26:09Brother-in-law,
00:26:11I don't usually lie to God.
00:26:13You hid the name of the person
00:26:15I asked about a moment ago.
00:26:17I must know it
00:26:19if I am to give you the anointing.
00:26:21But I don't see the sin
00:26:23in reading the signature.
00:26:25What does the name have to do with it?
00:26:27It's more important than you think.
00:26:29You want to know too much.
00:26:31All right.
00:26:33Don't give me the anointing
00:26:35if that's your will.
00:26:37I'll take the confession
00:26:39of the first better priest
00:26:41and I'll get it.
00:26:43What violence, Margrave,
00:26:45or I don't know you're talking about a priest.
00:26:47A priest.
00:26:49What do you need this confession for?
00:26:51Do you need it
00:26:53so that you can repeat it to your husband?
00:26:55It was a mistake
00:26:57to take a confessor from the family.
00:26:59Don't call me a witness
00:27:01that I forget about our kinship
00:27:03when I kneel before you,
00:27:05but you tried to remind me of it.
00:27:07Be careful, Chibo.
00:27:09Priests and cardinals remember
00:27:11to save their souls.
00:27:13Margrave,
00:27:15it's not as bad
00:27:17as you think.
00:27:19What do you mean?
00:27:21That a confessor should know everything
00:27:23because he can guide everyone.
00:27:25A brother-in-law
00:27:27can be silent
00:27:29under certain conditions.
00:27:31What conditions?
00:27:33I don't want to use that word.
00:27:35I'd like to say
00:27:37that a priest
00:27:39is a powerful man.
00:27:43Breaking up with him
00:27:45could be a source of benefit
00:27:47for a powerful family,
00:27:49but an important secret
00:27:51in my hands
00:27:53could be a source of benefit.
00:27:55A source of benefit?
00:27:57What do you want to do with me?
00:27:59A priest's lover?
00:28:01To know everything,
00:28:03to guide everyone?
00:28:05No, that's impossible.
00:28:07You wouldn't make such an effort.
00:28:09It's good for Lorenzacz.
00:28:11You must have a hidden intention
00:28:13of being careful.
00:28:15Margrave,
00:28:17the one who wants to face me
00:28:19must have a strong weapon
00:28:23and without a dagger.
00:28:25I won't threaten you,
00:28:29but I'll tell you one thing.
00:28:37Take another confessor.
00:28:43Read you something?
00:28:45My Katina is joking with me.
00:28:47Do I understand a word
00:28:49from your Latin books?
00:28:51It's not a Latin book,
00:28:53it's a translation of the history of Rome.
00:28:55I know this history perfectly well.
00:28:57There was once a young nobleman
00:28:59called Tarquinius the Younger.
00:29:01Oh!
00:29:03It's a bloody story.
00:29:05At least.
00:29:07It's a bloody story.
00:29:09It's a bloody story.
00:29:11It's a bloody story.
00:29:13At least.
00:29:15It's a magical story.
00:29:17Brutus was a madman,
00:29:19a maniac,
00:29:21but Tarquinius was a ruler
00:29:23full of wisdom.
00:29:25He never forgot to put on his slippers
00:29:27when he wanted to check
00:29:29if the girls were sleeping well.
00:29:31You also speak badly about Lucretia.
00:29:33Lucretia?
00:29:35She made sure to have pleasure
00:29:37from sin and glory from death.
00:29:39She has a knife to her belly.
00:29:43If you even despise women,
00:29:45why do you try to humiliate her
00:29:47in front of your mother and sister?
00:29:49I respect you and her.
00:29:51Do you know
00:29:53what dream I had that night
00:29:55with my child?
00:29:57A dream?
00:29:59No, it wasn't a dream,
00:30:01because I wasn't sleeping.
00:30:03I was alone in that great hall.
00:30:05The lamp was far away from me
00:30:07I was thinking about the days
00:30:09when I was happy.
00:30:11About the days of your childhood,
00:30:13my Lorenzino.
00:30:15I was looking into the darkness
00:30:17and I was saying to myself
00:30:19that the day will come
00:30:21when he,
00:30:23who once spent the night at work,
00:30:25will return.
00:30:27My eyes were filled with tears
00:30:29and I bowed my head
00:30:31feeling how they flowed.
00:30:33Suddenly I heard
00:30:35slow steps at the entrance.
00:30:37I turned around.
00:30:39A man in black
00:30:41came up to me
00:30:43with a book in his hand.
00:30:45It was you,
00:30:47Renzo.
00:30:49Come back soon,
00:30:51I called.
00:30:53But the witch sat at the table
00:30:55without saying a word.
00:30:57She turned the book over
00:30:59and I met
00:31:01my old Lorenzino.
00:31:03Did you see him?
00:31:05Like I see you.
00:31:07When did he leave?
00:31:09When he pulled the string from the bell
00:31:11coming back this morning.
00:31:13The witch?
00:31:15And she left when I came back?
00:31:17Yes.
00:31:19With a melancholic expression
00:31:21and she disappeared
00:31:23like a nightmare.
00:31:27Katina.
00:31:29Katina, read me Brutus' story.
00:31:31Mother.
00:31:33Sit in the same place
00:31:35in the evening
00:31:37and when you see my witch
00:31:39leave the house,
00:31:41tell her she will soon see
00:31:43something that amazes her.
00:31:47We leave you together.
00:31:51I will try
00:31:53for the last time.
00:31:55Lorenzo.
00:31:57Why don't you
00:31:59call off
00:32:01this horrible rumor?
00:32:03What rumor?
00:32:05They say you've lost your mind
00:32:07at the sight of Spada.
00:32:09Do you believe that, uncle?
00:32:11I saw you fighting in Rome
00:32:13but I wouldn't be surprised
00:32:15if you became more mean than a dog
00:32:17at the carnivores you have here.
00:32:19But it's true.
00:32:21I've lost my mind.
00:32:23Well, how are the prices?
00:32:25Is the trade going well?
00:32:27I'm at the head of the silk factory
00:32:29but you insult me, sir,
00:32:31calling me a merchant.
00:32:33Indeed, I forgot
00:32:35that since school
00:32:37you've acquired an innocent liking
00:32:39to the trade in silk.
00:32:41I've got rid of Mr. Venturi
00:32:43from the plans
00:32:45that now occupy many Florence families.
00:32:47He's a worthy friend of freedom
00:32:49and I'd like you to remember that.
00:32:51You told us
00:32:53that the boundless trust
00:32:55that the prince gives you
00:32:57is a trap set by you.
00:32:59The truth is a lie.
00:33:01Are you on our side or not?
00:33:03We want to know.
00:33:05All the great families believe
00:33:07that despotism in Medecius
00:33:09is unacceptable and lawless.
00:33:11The laws are not respected.
00:33:13The power of Germany changes
00:33:15day by day more and more.
00:33:17It's time to finish and unite the patriots
00:33:19Tell us, Mr. Venturi.
00:33:21Speak!
00:33:23The uncle is just taking a breath.
00:33:25Use the opportunity
00:33:27if your fatherland is dear to you.
00:33:29I think the same, sir,
00:33:31and I won't add a word.
00:33:33Not a word, not a single beautiful-sounding word.
00:33:35Get out of here or speak!
00:33:37But I'm with you, uncle.
00:33:39Can't you see
00:33:41that I have the soul of a republican?
00:33:43Don't have a moment of doubt.
00:33:45The most hidden part
00:33:47of my spirit
00:33:49is my love for my fatherland.
00:33:51Oh!
00:33:53What an extraordinary grace!
00:33:55Prince, you are in the house of a humble servant.
00:33:57Who are these people?
00:33:59I want to talk to you.
00:34:01I have the honour of introducing
00:34:03my uncle, Binda Altoviti,
00:34:05to your highness.
00:34:07His long stay in Naples
00:34:09did not allow him
00:34:11to bow to your feet.
00:34:13This second gentleman
00:34:15should not disappoint you
00:34:17with his unexpected visit.
00:34:19Dear uncle,
00:34:21what you ask for
00:34:23will be granted.
00:34:25Or you will be able to say
00:34:27that I have no mercy on my good prince.
00:34:29What do you want, Binda?
00:34:31Your highness, I am unhappy
00:34:33that my sister...
00:34:35The title of ambassador in Rome
00:34:37does not belong to anyone at the moment.
00:34:39My uncle expects to receive it
00:34:41at your mercy.
00:34:43It is about loyalty and dedication to the Medici.
00:34:45Really? How much?
00:34:47It's arranged, dear Binda.
00:34:49Your highness...
00:34:51And Venturi, who does not sell silk,
00:34:53asks for a privilege for his factories.
00:34:55What privilege?
00:34:57He would like to have the coat of arms
00:34:59of your highness above the gate
00:35:01and the title of ambassador.
00:35:03Admit this grace to him
00:35:05if you love those who love you.
00:35:07Excellent. That's all.
00:35:09Gentlemen, go to your rooms.
00:35:11Get out!
00:35:15What will you do?
00:35:17What can I do? I am appointed.
00:35:19That's terrible.
00:35:21Margarine is mine.
00:35:23I am not happy about that.
00:35:25Give it to him.
00:35:27What?
00:35:29Because he will lose money on it.
00:35:31No, she is already boring me.
00:35:33Who is that beautiful woman
00:35:35who puts flowers on the window?
00:35:37I have noticed her a long time ago.
00:35:39A neighbor.
00:35:41I would like to talk to that neighbor.
00:35:45Oh, Doilich.
00:35:47I think I am not mistaken.
00:35:49It's Katarzyna Dzinorin.
00:35:51No.
00:35:53Yes.
00:35:55Your cousin.
00:35:57I forgot about her.
00:35:59She brought her for dinner.
00:36:01It will be difficult.
00:36:03Give it a rest.
00:36:05Does Cnota exist for us?
00:36:07It's up to you.
00:36:09But I warn you.
00:36:11She speaks Latin.
00:36:13Please.
00:36:15I don't give up Latin in bed.
00:36:17Let's go.
00:36:19No.
00:36:21I have no time.
00:36:23I have to go to Strozzi.
00:36:25Are you going to that old madman?
00:36:27I can't get rid of a strange mania.
00:36:29I am ready to accept anyone
00:36:31who will hang himself.
00:36:33Every evening he gathers
00:36:35a stick in his hand.
00:36:37I will be at the old man's dinner.
00:36:39I will assure him about my friendship
00:36:41and then I will tell you
00:36:43a few happy stories
00:36:45which will be enough
00:36:47to knock on some doors
00:36:49early in the morning.
00:37:05I am going to Venice
00:37:07and he is going to Ferrari.
00:37:09What will happen to us
00:37:11when we go far away from here
00:37:13without each other?
00:37:15Goodbye, my friend.
00:37:17Until we meet again.
00:37:19Goodbye.
00:37:21You can come with me
00:37:23to Figura and Matka Boska.
00:37:25It's a mafia.
00:37:27How did you get here?
00:37:29What happened to your sister?
00:37:31I saw her leaving the theatre.
00:37:33God will forgive her
00:37:35if she doesn't have a royal dress.
00:37:37There was an old woman with her.
00:37:39She left three teeth on the square.
00:37:41I have never used my hands
00:37:43with such joy in my life.
00:37:45Let everyone die
00:37:47in this swamp
00:37:49and we will die happily.
00:37:51Listen.
00:37:53Philip from Strozzi will write to us
00:37:55in Venice.
00:37:57The day will come
00:37:59when the whole army
00:38:01will be killed.
00:38:03Until better times.
00:38:05Until better times.
00:38:07Until better times.
00:38:09I have done so much
00:38:11that I remembered
00:38:13those cursed words of Montoliveto.
00:38:15How can you torture people like Salviati?
00:38:17What do the words of Salviati mean
00:38:19for Luisa and for all of us?
00:38:21Will my daughter not find
00:38:23an honest husband because of it?
00:38:25Will I, father,
00:38:27remember it
00:38:29What have we come to
00:38:31if the impudence
00:38:33of the first better
00:38:35makes us take the spades out of the dust?
00:38:37It has happened.
00:38:39Peter has gone mad.
00:38:41If he meets Salviati now
00:38:43his blood will be shed.
00:38:45My...
00:38:47My blood
00:38:49on the throne of Florence.
00:38:51If I were told
00:38:53about my sister again
00:38:55I would turn my back
00:38:57so that Salviati would talk to me.
00:38:59I thought he didn't know
00:39:01who he was talking about,
00:39:03but he knew well.
00:39:05Yes, those scoundrels know it
00:39:07and they know who they are talking to.
00:39:09Peter is too impulsive.
00:39:11I acted like a madman
00:39:13allowing you to talk.
00:39:15Maybe...
00:39:17Maybe the danger is not so great.
00:39:19He could meet Salviati today.
00:39:21Tomorrow he will look at everything
00:39:23with greater peace.
00:39:25Calm down, calm down, father.
00:39:27A pitiful city
00:39:29in which fathers with despair in their hearts
00:39:31are looking forward to their sons' return.
00:39:35A poor homeland.
00:39:37And how many are there
00:39:39who are now, in the night,
00:39:41in hiding, in escape,
00:39:43looking for help.
00:39:45But those who stayed at home
00:39:47sleep peacefully
00:39:49even though they know
00:39:51that the exiles will die of starvation tomorrow
00:39:53or that it is still cold today.
00:39:55And we are only
00:39:57surrounded by the plague of this drunkard
00:39:59of a storm of peace.
00:40:01And he rushes to the street
00:40:03from our art palaces
00:40:05sons and friends with spades in their hands.
00:40:07But no public misfortune
00:40:09will force us
00:40:11to shake off the dust
00:40:13from the orange.
00:40:15They say
00:40:17that Philip Stroz
00:40:19is an honest man
00:40:21because he does good
00:40:23without opposing evil.
00:40:25And how much would I give,
00:40:27father,
00:40:29for there to be someone
00:40:31who would return my sons
00:40:33and take revenge for the neglect of my daughter.
00:40:35But why
00:40:37would someone
00:40:39oppose the evil
00:40:41that met me
00:40:43if I,
00:40:45when I had power,
00:40:47did not oppose
00:40:49the evil
00:40:51that met others.
00:40:53I was reading books.
00:40:55I was dreaming that my homeland
00:40:57was like
00:40:59the beloved antiquity.
00:41:01The walls around me
00:41:03were calling for revenge.
00:41:07And I was closing my ears.
00:41:09I was delving into reflection.
00:41:13Only when this wound
00:41:15struck me in the face
00:41:17I cried out for action.
00:41:21But my revenge
00:41:23had gray hair.
00:41:27It happened.
00:41:29Salviati is dead.
00:41:31What a terrible thing!
00:41:33You are covered in blood.
00:41:35We were waiting
00:41:37at the corner of Lucników Street.
00:41:39Franciszek stopped his horse
00:41:41and Tomasz blew him out of the saddle.
00:41:43And I...
00:41:45Your eyes are out of orbit.
00:41:47Your hands are trembling.
00:41:49You are pale as death.
00:41:51You are beautiful, Piotr.
00:41:53You are great as revenge.
00:41:55Who says that?
00:41:57You here?
00:41:59Lorenzo.
00:42:01When will you finally
00:42:03close the door to this bastard?
00:42:05Don't you know who he is,
00:42:07not to mention his adventure with Mauritius?
00:42:09Since Lorenzo is here,
00:42:11there are obvious reasons for me to accept him.
00:42:13Can I ever find a good reason
00:42:15to throw him out the window?
00:42:17Tell me what you want,
00:42:19but I want to throw up
00:42:21when I see him on our seats.
00:42:23Enough of your brainless nonsense!
00:42:25May God not let your today's adventure
00:42:27end in disaster for all of us.
00:42:29For now,
00:42:31you must hide.
00:42:33No, Father, I will not hide.
00:42:35The revenge was public
00:42:37on the open square.
00:42:39I killed him in the middle of the street.
00:42:41Since when do you have to hide
00:42:43when there is a revenge in the defense of honor?
00:42:45I would like to walk around Florence
00:42:47with a naked spade,
00:42:49without wiping a drop of blood from it.
00:42:53Take this!
00:42:55Take this!
00:42:57Stop!
00:43:09Help!
00:43:11Help!
00:43:13Help!
00:43:27Die!
00:43:29If you want to frighten your neighbors,
00:43:31you're taking the wrong approach.
00:43:33They got scared for the first time,
00:43:35but now they're just furious.
00:43:37You think so?
00:43:39You have an enemy, sir.
00:43:41Your heart doesn't like jokes.
00:43:43Believe me,
00:43:45there's nothing worse than living with great hatred.
00:43:47Or that there are at least two people in the world
00:43:49who don't care about each other.
00:43:51Your medicine
00:43:53is here.
00:43:55Let me cure you.
00:43:57And this medicine,
00:43:59did it ever help you?
00:44:01Four or five times.
00:44:03Take it.
00:44:11She honored you.
00:44:13Try it. You'll see.
00:44:15Yes,
00:44:17I have an enemy, but...
00:44:19No, you won't live long enough to serve another.
00:44:21The blade that will kill him
00:44:23will be a girl.
00:44:25Keep his name.
00:44:27What do you care about his name?
00:44:29Are you loyal to me?
00:44:31I'll give you a white cross
00:44:33for the new Christ.
00:44:35I'll tell you in confidence.
00:44:37Everything will be settled in this room.
00:44:39Now,
00:44:41when I strike him with the first blow,
00:44:43don't try to touch him.
00:44:45If he tried to defend himself,
00:44:47you'll hold his hand.
00:44:49He's mine.
00:44:51I'll warn you when the time comes.
00:44:53Amen.
00:45:03When I die,
00:45:05my beloved
00:45:07take
00:45:09my heart,
00:45:11burn
00:45:13in the devil's fire.
00:45:15I can't
00:45:17pray
00:45:19for you.
00:45:21Tears are
00:45:23water,
00:45:25better wine.
00:45:27Drink, girl,
00:45:29for my health.
00:45:31And over the grave
00:45:33sing
00:45:35my lullaby.
00:45:37I'll tell you.
00:45:41What did that boy do to you
00:45:43whom you were so fond of?
00:45:45I can't tell you,
00:45:47and I don't think he can either.
00:45:49Why isn't he alive?
00:45:51He's a boy from a neighbouring house.
00:45:53When I was passing by,
00:45:55I thought I'd hidden him.
00:45:57When I strike hard, I strike hard.
00:45:59The Duke is very kind,
00:46:01but I've seen him
00:46:03your height.
00:46:05Really?
00:46:07I must have been drunk.
00:46:09When I drink,
00:46:11my strike is fatal.
00:46:13What's the matter?
00:46:15Your hand is shaking.
00:46:17No, it's nothing.
00:46:21This chain is very nice,
00:46:23but it must be hot in it.
00:46:25I wouldn't wear it
00:46:27if it bothered me.
00:46:29It's made of steel.
00:46:31It's like silk.
00:46:33It's as light as silk.
00:46:35Maybe there's no other in Europe.
00:46:37That's why I rarely part with it.
00:46:39It's very light,
00:46:41but also very strong.
00:46:43Do you think it'll be made of steel?
00:46:45I'm sure of it.
00:46:47You always wear it under your coat.
00:46:49It's a bad habit.
00:46:51I don't wear it to be afraid of anyone.
00:46:53It's a soldier's habit,
00:46:55as you said.
00:46:57Well?
00:46:59How's it going?
00:47:01Are you satisfied with my work?
00:47:05What a beautiful suit!
00:47:09It smells like gloves.
00:47:13Why are you posing half-naked?
00:47:15The chain would look better in the painting.
00:47:17Marasz wanted it.
00:47:19It's better to pose with a naked torso.
00:47:21Look at the antique works.
00:47:23Your Highness,
00:47:25I won't paint any more today.
00:47:33Where's my guitar?
00:47:35Where's my guitar?
00:47:39I have to make a quote for John.
00:47:43The suit.
00:47:45The chain.
00:47:47I don't see it anywhere.
00:47:49It disappeared without a trace.
00:47:51Disappeared without a trace?
00:47:53She must have lost it.
00:47:55Renco had it in his hands a moment ago.
00:47:57He must have thrown it away.
00:48:01Unbelievable. It disappeared without a trace.
00:48:03Nonsense.
00:48:05Your Highness,
00:48:07the room is not big.
00:48:09Renco kept it here.
00:48:13What have you done with the chain?
00:48:15We can't find it.
00:48:17Here.
00:48:19I put it here.
00:48:21No, here.
00:48:23I don't know. I found the guitar.
00:48:25Good morning, Your Highness,
00:48:29the heart of my heart.
00:48:31You can't sing like that.
00:48:33It's the first time in my life
00:48:35that I sing like that.
00:48:37The service will find me.
00:48:43I won't tell you about my cousin.
00:48:45Everything is fine.
00:48:47Come, I'll tell you something.
00:48:51It's amazing what happened
00:48:53to the chain.
00:48:55You'll find it later.
00:48:57Aleksandre Medici!
00:49:01Open the window and look
00:49:03how your servants treated it.
00:49:05Who's there?
00:49:07Who's shouting so loudly?
00:49:09The Strozzi brothers attacked me.
00:49:11How dare they?
00:49:13What Strozzi? Why?
00:49:15I told them that their sister
00:49:17is in love with you, Your Highness.
00:49:19They thought it was a joke.
00:49:21Three people attacked me.
00:49:23I recognized Peter and Tomasz.
00:49:25I don't know who was the third.
00:49:27Take him upstairs.
00:49:29The murderers will spend the night in prison
00:49:31and tomorrow they'll hang him on the gallows.
00:49:33What a joke.
00:49:35Such a joke.
00:49:37I wouldn't serve people
00:49:39if there was one less Salviati on the streets.
00:49:41But this Wotr
00:49:43fell to the ground like a spider
00:49:45hiding his bloody paws
00:49:47because he was afraid I'd kill him.
00:49:49If he's alive, your revenge
00:49:51is even greater.
00:49:53You gave him such wounds
00:49:55that he'll never forget them.
00:49:57You're a good patriot,
00:49:59but a better father.
00:50:01Stay away from these matters.
00:50:03Can't you survive
00:50:05without a bloodthirsty mind?
00:50:07No, I can't live in this polluted air.
00:50:09The sky is over my head
00:50:11like a prison cell.
00:50:13On the streets, I feel like I'm breathing
00:50:15the smell of food and booze.
00:50:19Be healthy, father. It's time for me.
00:50:21Why should you know?
00:50:25I'm going to Patz.
00:50:27Wait.
00:50:29Let's go together.
00:50:31Not now, father.
00:50:33It's not a good time for you.
00:50:35Let it stay between us.
00:50:37What's next?
00:50:39The avalanche may cause
00:50:41a stone no bigger than a fingernail.
00:50:43What do you want to do?
00:50:45What are your plans?
00:50:47What means?
00:50:49Puppets
00:50:51playing with life and death.
00:50:53Problems
00:50:55that shook the world.
00:50:57Ideas
00:50:59from which heads were whistling
00:51:01or spinning like a grain of sand
00:51:03to the cat's feet.
00:51:05Between a stick of spade
00:51:07and a glass of Spanish wine.
00:51:09As if it were a horse or a masquerade.
00:51:13Do you know what a republic is?
00:51:15A farmer in the field,
00:51:17a townspeople on the market.
00:51:19What is life?
00:51:21The happiness of humanity.
00:51:25A just God.
00:51:27Children, can you
00:51:29count to ten?
00:51:31A good cut with a lancet
00:51:33to cure this disease.
00:51:35Do you know
00:51:37that you need experience
00:51:39as long as life.
00:51:41Knowledge as great as the world
00:51:43to cut a drop of blood
00:51:45from a sick man's arm.
00:51:47But you, who know how to love,
00:51:49should know how to hate.
00:51:51What did all these patsies
00:51:53do to God?
00:51:55They invite friends to a party
00:51:57when he invites them to a party.
00:51:59In whose blood
00:52:01do you live?
00:52:03What do you want?
00:52:05Why are you contradicting yourself?
00:52:07Didn't I hear you a hundred times
00:52:09when you said what we say?
00:52:11We know what you do.
00:52:13Why does the service see in your windows
00:52:15the lights on in the evening?
00:52:17Those who spend the night sleeplessly.
00:52:19Fathers don't die without a word.
00:52:21But what do you want?
00:52:23Medicine is a plague.
00:52:25A man bitten by a snake
00:52:27doesn't need a doctor.
00:52:29What do you want?
00:52:31Life.
00:52:33What exists.
00:52:35And what will you give in exchange?
00:52:37Nothing worse, for sure.
00:52:39I advise you well.
00:52:41Learn to count to ten.
00:52:43It's easy to count the heads of hydras.
00:52:45So you want to act.
00:52:47We want to finish with the murderers of Florence.
00:52:49You want to act.
00:52:51Undoubtedly.
00:52:53Father,
00:52:55let me go.
00:52:57Your time
00:52:59has come.
00:53:01Take me, son.
00:53:03I won't teach you for a long time.
00:53:05I'll say a few words, two words,
00:53:07no more, I won't speak yet.
00:53:09I'll take a coat from Rzecz.
00:53:13If we don't find him at home,
00:53:15we'll go to Patz.
00:53:17Do your job, please.
00:53:19You'll see how to pay for it.
00:53:21I'm fulfilling the orders of the priest
00:53:23and I won't take anyone from heaven.
00:53:25What are you doing here, Tomasz?
00:53:27Don't let him in.
00:53:29Father, don't let him in.
00:53:31Take this man.
00:53:33Get out of my way,
00:53:35or I'll cut your hair.
00:53:37I have to arrest
00:53:39Tomasz and Piotr Strucik.
00:53:41What have we done?
00:53:43I'm accused.
00:53:45Help me, my friends,
00:53:47or I'll cut your skin.
00:53:49Good soldier,
00:53:51do me a favor.
00:53:53Don't interfere in my business.
00:53:55I can only be arrested
00:53:57by order of the Council of Eight.
00:53:59Where's the order of the Council of Eight?
00:54:01We're taking you there.
00:54:03If so,
00:54:05I won't object.
00:54:07What have I been accused of?
00:54:09Tell me, what have I been accused of?
00:54:11It's none of my business.
00:54:13Take him away.
00:54:15Don't worry, Father.
00:54:17The Council of Eight will send me home
00:54:19for dinner.
00:54:21For your justice!
00:54:31I have many children,
00:54:33but not many,
00:54:35if it goes on like this.
00:54:41Are you asking for mercy,
00:54:43sitting on the corner of the street?
00:54:45Lorenzo,
00:54:47we have to free ourselves
00:54:49only by name.
00:54:51If you're an honest man,
00:54:53reveal it today.
00:54:55Piotr and Tomasz
00:54:57are in prison.
00:54:59I know.
00:55:01Is that your answer?
00:55:03What do you want?
00:55:05Speak and I'll answer.
00:55:07I don't know how to act,
00:55:09but I have to act.
00:55:11Lorenzo,
00:55:13everyone called you a coward,
00:55:15a coward,
00:55:17a coward.
00:55:19Speak,
00:55:21I know I'm not mistaken.
00:55:23Remember,
00:55:25you told me about a man
00:55:27called Lorenzo,
00:55:29hidden behind the Lorenzo I see.
00:55:31That man loves his country,
00:55:33keeps faith in his friends.
00:55:35You said it,
00:55:37and I believed it.
00:55:39Now it's time
00:55:41for you to speak.
00:55:43Piotr and Tomasz are in prison.
00:55:45That's all.
00:55:47A piece of cake, isn't it?
00:55:49Two heads I've kissed so many times,
00:55:51I'll see tomorrow,
00:55:53nailed to the gate of the fortress.
00:55:55That's all, nothing more.
00:55:57Don't talk to me like that.
00:55:59They can't die.
00:56:01It's impossible.
00:56:03The Tribunal is made of stone.
00:56:05These people have wives,
00:56:07daughters, they eat and sleep.
00:56:09Let them kill, let them murder,
00:56:11but not my children, not my children.
00:56:13Piotr is a man,
00:56:15he will be released.
00:56:17Go home and wait.
00:56:19Or better yet,
00:56:21leave Florence.
00:56:23I'll answer for everything, if you leave Florence.
00:56:25Exile.
00:56:27Dying on a bed in an inn.
00:56:29And all this
00:56:31through a whore like Salviati.
00:56:33I know Salviati wanted to take your daughter,
00:56:35but not just for himself.
00:56:37Alexander has a place in his bed.
00:56:39And we have nothing...
00:56:41Go home, good sir.
00:56:43I'll go to Patz.
00:56:45There are 50 young people there,
00:56:47ready for anything.
00:56:49I'll talk to them, I'll understand them.
00:56:51And in the evening,
00:56:53I'll invite my whole family for dinner.
00:56:55I'll tell them everything.
00:56:57And we'll see.
00:56:59Nothing lost yet.
00:57:01I'm still the Mediceus.
00:57:03The one who tempts you now is the most dangerous.
00:57:05What do you mean?
00:57:07You just want to release your sons.
00:57:09Don't you have something else in your heart?
00:57:11Or maybe some other thought?
00:57:13A terrible one.
00:57:15Don't you want this youth?
00:57:17Oh, yes.
00:57:19The harm done to my family
00:57:21will be a signal of freedom.
00:57:23Oh, Filipe.
00:57:25You thought about the happiness of humanity.
00:57:27I don't understand you.
00:57:29You always claimed
00:57:31that you are a plump vessel
00:57:33that contains a precious cordial.
00:57:35Now I see
00:57:37what a cordial it is.
00:57:39Oh, yes.
00:57:41I'm really precious to you.
00:57:43Because I'll kill Aleksandra.
00:57:47You?
00:57:49Yes, me.
00:57:51Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow.
00:57:53Go home and try to release your sons.
00:57:55If you can't accept a small punishment,
00:57:57I know that's all they can do.
00:57:59In a few days, Aleksandra won't be the Mediceus in Florence.
00:58:01If it's true,
00:58:03why shouldn't I think about freedom?
00:58:05Filipe, Filipe.
00:58:07Beware.
00:58:09You lived in poverty for 60 years.
00:58:11It's too much to play with.
00:58:13If those dark words
00:58:15contain something I can understand,
00:58:17say it.
00:58:19I was an honest man too, Filipe.
00:58:21I believed in poverty, in the greatness of people.
00:58:23Like a martyr believes in his God.
00:58:25I shed more tears for poor Italy
00:58:27than I do for my daughters.
00:58:29Listen, Lorenzo.
00:58:31My youth was pure, like gold.
00:58:33But I think I have to be the spark of this fire,
00:58:35since one night I swore
00:58:37that one of the tyrants of my homeland
00:58:39would die at my hands.
00:58:41I don't know, I don't know
00:58:43how this personal oath was born.
00:58:45I always trusted you.
00:58:47I was happy then.
00:58:49My heart, my hands were calm.
00:58:51People didn't do anything good to me,
00:58:53but nothing bad.
00:58:55And I was good.
00:58:57I just wanted to be great for my great misfortune.
00:58:59Great.
00:59:01Why would you defend yourself against her?
00:59:05I'm a despicable man.
00:59:07I'm shabby.
00:59:09I'm rotten.
00:59:11No, that's not what I mean.
00:59:13You're our Brutus,
00:59:15if you're telling the truth.
00:59:17Yes, I thought I was Brutus.
00:59:19Now I know people.
00:59:21I don't advise you to get involved in these matters.
00:59:23Why?
00:59:27That's my opinion, Filipe.
00:59:29If it's about your sons,
00:59:31I advise you to keep calm.
00:59:33The best way is to get them back
00:59:35when they're slightly punished.
00:59:37But if it's about doing something for people,
00:59:39I advise you to cut your hands off.
00:59:41Not much time will pass
00:59:43and you'll see that you're the only one who has them.
00:59:45And I believe in honesty,
00:59:47dignity, freedom.
00:59:49I'm on the street.
00:59:51Me, Lorenzaccio.
00:59:53And the children don't squeeze mud into me.
00:59:55The bed and the daughter are still warm from my sweat.
00:59:57And the fathers don't grab me for a knife or a stick
00:59:59to kill me.
01:00:01I breathe the air that you breathe.
01:00:03My coat drags on the sand,
01:00:05but not a drop of poison
01:00:07falls into my morning chocolate.
01:00:09When I started playing the role
01:00:11of the new-born Brutus,
01:00:13I was wearing my suit
01:00:15of great brotherhood,
01:00:17as a ten-year-old child
01:00:19wears the armor of a giant from a fairy tale.
01:00:21And I said loudly
01:00:23that my twenty-year-old daughter
01:00:25was a catching mask.
01:00:27And I went into people and saw that
01:00:29everyone thinks the same as me.
01:00:31And all the masks fell at my sight.
01:00:33I saw people as they are.
01:00:35And then I thought to myself
01:00:37who I work for, for whom.
01:00:39I saw Republicans in their offices.
01:00:41I went into shops.
01:00:43I followed.
01:00:45I noted the conversations of ordinary people.
01:00:47And I kept waiting for humanity
01:00:49to allow me to look at my face.
01:00:51Honesty.
01:00:53Like a married woman
01:00:55waiting for her wedding day.
01:00:57If I understand you correctly,
01:00:59you pursued a lofty goal.
01:01:01You chose a humble path.
01:01:03And you think that everything
01:01:05is similar to what you have experienced.
01:01:07But evil does not exist without good.
01:01:09You want to see someone in me
01:01:11who despises people.
01:01:13I know perfectly well
01:01:15that people are good.
01:01:17But what do they do?
01:01:19Why do they serve?
01:01:21And from a certain point of view
01:01:23everything becomes good.
01:01:25A dog, a faithful friend.
01:01:27You can have the best servant in him.
01:01:29And you can see how he throws himself at the corpses.
01:01:31A tongue that licks its master
01:01:33smells like a mill under the rope.
01:01:35Brutus.
01:01:37He pretended to be crazy
01:01:39when he wanted to kill Tarquinius.
01:01:41I am surprised that he really did not go crazy.
01:01:43Take my example, Philip.
01:01:45Do not work for the good of the Fatherland.
01:01:47I believe.
01:01:49I believe in the honesty of the Republicans.
01:01:51Yes?
01:01:53I am going to bet with you.
01:01:55Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow I will kill Alexander.
01:01:57And when it happens
01:01:59and the Republicans behave as they should,
01:02:01it will be possible to make the Republic the most beautiful on earth.
01:02:03Let them have the people on their side and everything.
01:02:05And I am going to bet
01:02:07that neither the Republicans nor the people will do anything.
01:02:09You are kidding.
01:02:11Yes? Then remember one thing.
01:02:13Do you see the family at the table in this house?
01:02:15Aren't there people here?
01:02:17And if I wanted to go in there
01:02:19and stab everyone's eldest son in the eye,
01:02:21not a single knife would raise against me.
01:02:23Why?
01:02:25Do you want to kill the prince?
01:02:27If such thoughts haunt you.
01:02:33Why?
01:02:35Are you still asking?
01:02:37If you think that this murder
01:02:39is useless for the Fatherland,
01:02:41why are you killing?
01:02:43Look at yourself.
01:02:45I was calm.
01:02:47Beautiful.
01:02:49Caring.
01:02:53Why am I killing?
01:02:55What do you want?
01:02:57That I get poisoned?
01:02:59Or that I jump into the furnace?
01:03:01Did you think that this murder
01:03:03is all that is left of my honesty?
01:03:05Did you think that for two years
01:03:07I have been slipping on a vertical wall
01:03:09and that this murder is the only thing
01:03:11I can hook my fingernails on?
01:03:15Yes.
01:03:17If I could return to honesty,
01:03:19maybe I would spare
01:03:21this scoundrel Wołów.
01:03:23But I like wine,
01:03:25girls, games.
01:03:27And if something awakens in me
01:03:29your respect,
01:03:31then maybe this murder
01:03:33because you wouldn't fulfill it.
01:03:35I will kill Aleksandra in a few days.
01:03:37It will be over.
01:03:39Let them call me as they want.
01:03:41Brutus Herostratus.
01:03:43In what you say
01:03:45there are things
01:03:47that fill with sadness
01:03:49and others that are joyful.
01:03:51But
01:03:53Piotr and Tomasz
01:03:55are in prison.
01:03:57In this matter
01:03:59I can only
01:04:01trust myself.
