Amarcord

ln the municipal museum,

there are stone implements...

- All the best.

- My respects.

...that date to prehistoric times.

l myself have found

some graffiti of great antiquity

in caves

on Count Lovignano's estate.

Be that as it may, the first date

we know for certain is 268 BC,

when this became a Roman colony

and the start of the Emilian Way.

Mr. Lawyer!

That, too, is characteristic

of the irreverent nature of these people,

who bear Roman and Celtic blood

in their veins.

Theirs is an exuberant,

generous, tenacious nature.

The divine Dante,

Pascoli, D'Annunzio

and many others

have lauded this land,

and innumerable are its sons

who have contributed greatly

to art, science,

religion and politics.

Who is that?

You think you're funny,

but you're too cowardly

to show your face.

Show yourself.

Come out here

and l'll teach you a thing or two!

- Mr. Lawyer.

- Yeah, yeah.

Gentlemen!

What's all this?

- Shall we take our places?

- lf you insist, headmaster.

But l never come out well

in pictures.

You boys in the back,

get up on the bench.

- What is it now, De Santis?

- lt wasn't me, sir!

Aldina.

Look - it looks like you.

What's going on?

Gigliozzi!

Take your seat.

Put it down her back.

old it like that, please.

What is this?

A stone.

- Yes, but what is it?

- l know.

lt's for a slingshot.

- An elephant's testicle?

l'll tell you.

lt's a pendulum.

You've certainly all seen

a grandfather clock.

And how does it go?

Where did Tiberius retire to

upon giving up command of the empire?

Capri.

- When was Agrippina killed?

- 69 AD.

Why did you give me a zero?

Wasn't it 69?

lt was 59 AD.

Are you sure?

What do you mean, am l sure?

lt was 59 AD!

Damn it! l knew it!

You'll drive me crazy!

Get back to your seat!
