Even the Rain Page #2

in the name of Jesus Christ,

Son of the one true God,

take possession of these lands and seas

and all they contain.

And with this act...

...I proclaim sovereignty

over these lands and seas

on behalf of their most

gracious Majesties.

Let us thank the Virgin Mother

for delivering us with good health

to this great triumph.

This must be their village.

Thank God, they look peaceful.

A good site for a fortress.

Mingle with them.

The first man to find gold

will be rewarded.

Captain...

treat them well.

We need their food.

And find out what arms they have.

Admiral!

Quickly! You have to see this!

-Gold!

-Gold.

-Gold.

-Gold.

-Gold.

-Gold.

It's gold.

Where is the gold?

Gold!

Where is the gold?

You know what I'm talking about! Gold!

Where is it?

Who gives a sh*t about gold?

I need a f***ing drink!

Forgive me, Miss.

We actors are totally selfish.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

Remember him?

See the look in his eyes?

The piercing stare, really deep.

He's little,

but he's got great presence.

Yeah, and he stinks of trouble, too.

-And he's never acted in his life.

-No, but I'm the director.

It's an advantage. He's very natural.

What about the Peruvian actor?

He's terrible, totally predictable.

No. No, no.

But this one's a troublemaker.

You saw what he stirred up

at the casting the other day.

He's a leader.

You're looking for a leader.

Costa... I want him and his daughter.

No, don't f*** with me, I don't

want this guy on the f***ing shoot.

He'll wreck it.

I don't want him. That's it.

Let me show you something. Look.

-What's this?

-Who's that?

I know perfectly well who it is.

When did you shoot this?

-This morning.

-Without telling me?

Look, look, look!

Hatuey! F***, it's Hatuey!

-Right?

-He's very good.

-It's amazing!

-Okay, he's Hatuey, fantastic.

You're not going to be able

to control this guy.

You're going to regret it.

Just remember I told you so.

He's right in a way.

But the film comes first, always.

As governor of this island,

I want to thank you

for coming to see me.

After my first voyage,

I spoke personally with their Majesties,

who instructed me to treat you

with respect and cordiality.

We ask that you recognize

the Church and the Pope

as rulers of the universe.

And also that you accept the King

and the Queen of Spain

as rulers of these lands.

In exchange,

you will receive our love

and our charity.

And if we do not?

Captain...

If not...

we will enslave you

and dispose of you as we wish.

We will seize your possessions

and we will do you

as much harm as we can.

What do you want from us?

Taxes.

Every Indian over the age of 14

must fill a bell.

What did he say?
