Summertime Page #4

Synopsis: The American secretary Jane Hudson travels from Ohio to Venice. Jane is a middle-age single and lonely woman that have saved money for her dream trip. On the arrival, she immediately befriends the owner of the boarding house Signora Fiorini. During the night, she goes to a café and an Italian helps her to call the waiter. Jane feels sort of uncomfortable for being alone and on the next day, she sees a red glass goblet in the window of an antique store. The owner Renato de Rossi, who is the man that helped her, explains that it is an ancient goblet from the Eighteenth Century and therefore expensive; then he also explains that she should always bargain for a lower price in Venice. Jane recognizes Renato from the previous night and becomes clumsy. Soon Renato woos her but the needy Jane is afraid to love.

to get another goblet,

Would you wish to have it?

Oh, yes.

I think it is possible I may find one.

Perhaps you would call again?

Or perhaps I could send it to your hotel?

Where you're staying?

In Venice.

What?

I mean, in Pensioni Fiorini.

Oh, yes.

Thank you.

Hope to see you again.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Your glasses.

You'll wear it or carry it?

Carry them. Thank you.

Good-by.

Good-by.

Dearest Ben and Betty:

Venice is as unbelievable as fairy tale,

How I wish you're here.

This time, we'll be a quartet.

Mio Amico has silver-gray hair.

Cookie, you're a very pretty girl.

Yes. I know.

But I'm not interested

in looking like the women in paintings.

You are.

C'mon.

No, You are.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

Someday when you're not so busy,

how about you showing me the town.

I've been hurrying for ten minutes.

I'll call a boat.

Ok.

We could go swimming.

Sure.

We're out to Harry's bar.

The book says that's a must.

Ok.

Will you excuse us?

Sure. Have fun.

Be seeing you.

Yes.

Bye.

Bye.

Hey! Why don't l

give Harry his big break tonight.

Do you mind if I come along with you?

I always buy my guy a drink.

Sure.

We'll meet some people.

How about bring them, too?

Are there too many of them?

Just another couple.

We're going on to dinner together.

Sure. Have fun.

Oh, Eddie.

Miss. Hudson.

Coffee.

Good evening.

Good evening.

You frightened me.

How did you know I was here?

(ltalian.)

Oh, I like it this way.

Lady, you got any brothers and sisters?

Three, cookie.

You very lucky. Three brothers

and sisters. I got three of these.

Presents. Souvenirs of ltaly.

You're impossible.

Ok. Ok.

Now, look. Cookie, I'm lost.

Do you know Campos St. Bonavus?

Yes.

You take me there. Ok?

Yes, Miss.

I wash face. You want to wash face?

Ok. I'll wash my face, too.

Wonderful!

C'mon. Iet's go.

Your legs gone, lady?

You say the cuttest things.

Look, take that and that. All that.

And you stay here.

Ok.

Very difficult for ladies.

I'm now going to take a picture.

Okey-doke.

Okey-doke. That's about it.

You're in the way.

You don't want my picture, lady?

What's it for?

I'm trying to

take the picture of that shop.

Sometimes, I think you're very peculiar.

Thanks, cookie.

Ok. Shoot.

Look. Coming here.

Be a good boy. Stand over there.

Don't move and shut up.

Go ahead. Now. Stop. Ok.

You should've seen me in the Olympics.

Skip it.

Mauro! Mauro!

Here, lady.

Take me home.

Ok, lady.

Good afternoon. How are you?

Not so bad. I fell into the canal.

Oh yes, I'm so sorry.

You played hooky this afternoon.

I played hooky?

I was at your shop.

Didn't the boy tell you?

Yes. Yes.
