PARIS 2004
[Gabriele on phone]
Rocco, where the fuck are you?
Everyone's waiting for you
here in the hall.
Where the fuck are you?
Please, just tell me,
where the fuck are you?
[pulsing instrumental music plays]
[belt buckle clinking]
[urinating]
[sighs softly]
- [woman] Riccardo!
- Riccardo!
- Riccardo! Riccardo!
- [overlapping chatter]
Is he ready for retirement?
[music fades out]
Ten years ago, we lost Moana.
We're not prepared to lose another star.
- Thank you all. Thank you.
- Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop!
- Stop, please! Stop!
- Schicchi!
[Riccardo] Nice announcement.
To the point, tough
with that emotion-filled pause.
Bravo.
The end.
[Gabriele] What the fuck?
You're congratulating him?
The man keeps seeing his dead brother.
And every day, I see Moana.
In the evening, before it gets dark.
In the morning too, at dawn,
while I'm seeing to my hydrangeas.
She grabbed a mineral water, yesterday.
Sat down in front of me,
and do you know what she said?
"The ones who die can rest,
the living fuck the best."
[Gabriele laughing]
You idiot, that's hilarious!
Do what you like.
Your statement today could be the end,
or a brand-new marketing ploy.
Everybody's downstairs waiting for you.
[chuckles softly]
But don't forget, Rocco,
we're the ones who don't spare ourselves,
who fight the world's pain with our flesh,
the only thing we have that is
eternal.
["Bravi ragazzi" by Miguel Bosé playing]
- Stop, Tano! Stop! Hey!
- I'm gonna kill you, Rocco!
Get off!
Stop!
No!
[train whistle blows]
PARIS 1984-87
That's what I should've done
last time I saw you, Rocco.
But I see the Gypsies beat me to it.
[chuckles softly]
I see you've grown.
- So, how many girls have you fucked?
- Well
All this and you never got laid?
[chuckles]
[sighs]
Mom sent you this.
- She gave it to you?
- Yeah.
Come on, let's go.
[engine turns over]
["Bravi ragazzi" continues]
Come on, let's go. Get a move on.
- Hey, know what your problem is?
- Huh?
You'd be happy being that dog.
You need to be the one holding the leash.
- Alright?
- Yeah.
Understand?
- I get it, Tommy.
- You haven't got a fucking clue.
["Bravi ragazzi" fades out]
- [cork pops]
- Ooh yeah!
My brother Rocco!
Hey, not so fast, this is champagne,
not that wine from Nicola's cellar!
That's 200,000 lira a bottle.
- Two hundred thousand?
- Enjoy it.
Go get dressed.
Look how you've grown, Rocco.
Hey, hurry up and get dressed.
[scoffs] Yeah, yeah.
[exhales deeply]
This is your room.
- What do you think?
- [lighter clicks]
Bet you never had a room
all to yourself, Rocco.
- Bathroom's over there.
- Oh.
Don't worry about paying rent.
I'll take it out of your restaurant pay.
- Yeah. All right. Thanks, Tommy.
- Hurry up, we're going out.
[door shuts]
[gentle music playing]
[Rocco] Every superhero
needs to find their natural habitat
for their superpower to manifest.
Superman could never fly
in a room with a low ceiling.
["The Weight" by The Band plays]
And you can't learn to fuck the world
if you live in Ortona.
Rocco, the biggest dick in the world!
The ladies of Paris
love a real Italian man.
But first, you learn to live,
then you learn to fuck.
[Rocco] Paris fucking Paris.
I could feel it, it was made for me.
[Tommy] This'll be your home. You'll work
your ass off day and night, got it?
- [Rocco] There, somewhere
- You need to become a real man.
lived Supersex.
[door jingles]
Ooh! [chuckles]
[Rocco] Tommaso was
the restaurant manager for Casa Nostra.
- But he acted like he owned the place.
- Hello.
[Rocco] The owner, Don Mario,
lived above the restaurant.
Let's go.
[Rocco] He got Tommaso
involved with the Corsicans.
My brother, Rocco.
[Rocco] That restaurant
was very important to them.
- Go, go!
- Hi.
[Rocco] That was where they did
their business, and laundered their money.
Hey, hello. I'm Bernardo.
Glad to have you.
I'll show you the menu.
[Don Mario] Right there.
You can leave it right there.
["The Weight" continues playing]
I picked up my bag ♪
I went looking for a place to hide ♪
When I saw Carmen and the Devil
Walking side-by-side ♪
I said, "Hey, Carmen" ♪
The fuck you want?
Go and polish the cutlery!
She said, "I gotta go
But my friend can stick around" ♪
[Rocco] From the window in the café,
Parisian women
looked incredibly beautiful.
Even her.
I worked undercover, like
any self-respecting superhero.
Ah!
- How are you?
- Good, good.
Jean Claude, my brother, Rocco,
the biggest dick in the world.
[Rocco] Tommaso always told me,
women and money were a club
- [Jean Claude] Keep away from my sister.
- [Tommy] Stay away from his sister.
you had to approach that club
in the right way.
Money first, Rocco. Money.
Think of the money first.
[woman] May I use the toilet?
["The Weight" continues playing]
May I use the toilet?
[chuckles]
Take a load off, Fanny ♪
Take a load for free ♪
Take a load off ♪
TOILE
[toilet flushing]
[gentle atmospheric music plays]
[Rocco reading] "May I use"
May I use the toilet?
Use?
May May may I use toilet?
- The toilet?
- Yes. [chuckles]
[Rocco] There were no girls
like Sylvie in Ortona.
She came from a tiny village in Corsica
and dreamed of seeing the world, like me.
She was strange and sweet,
like a stray cat.
People said she didn't trust anyone.
But she trusted me.
[Lucia] Tommy?
It's Rocco.
[Lucia] Oh, Rocco.
Come here.
[water trickling]
Pass me the towel, would you?
[exhales sharply]
["Agata" by Nino Ferrer playing]
[laughing]
- Hey!
- [snaps]
[laughing]
[laughing]
[laughter continues]
I love you.
["Agata" continues]
[sighs softly]
[organ music rises]
[Rocco] Is this your secret?
[woman] I never talked when I was little.
But I had a small, plastic piano.
I used to play it all the time.
Then, one time, my father smashed it.
So Jean Claude glued
the pieces back together.
And one day, when I was playing,
got a splinter in my finger.
However, instead of stopping,
I just continued playing,
while it just sunk further into my flesh.
See it?
When I play, I feel alive.
[breathing heavily]
[chuckling sigh]
Well, that's 22 each.
I didn't work as much.
Rocco, we share equally.
- Thanks.
- When you're finished put in an extra 200.
No. I do what Don Mario tells me to.
Well, Don Mario isn't here, so do it.
You can't just add in the money
from the shit that you do.
You're not in charge, Tommaso.
[Tommy] Rocco.
[stool scrapes]
- Close the curtains.
- Why, Tommy?
[grunts]
[struggling, groaning]
[bell jingling]
[grunts]
[Rocco] I felt sorry
for Bernardo and the others.
But when your brother fights,
there's only one place to be.
- [laughing]
- By his side.
[atmospheric instrumental music builds]
[tailor] Good. That looks good.
You're so handsome.
[Rocco] Hmm?
Thank you, Tommy.
- Beautiful, huh?
- Mm-hmm.
The most beautiful in Paris.
Sooner or later. Yeah?
Hmm?
[chuckles softly]
This place is really amazing.
Thank you.
[music fades out]
[both panting]
[unzipping]
[slow atmospheric music builds]
Wait a minute.
So you've really never done it before?
Why? Have you done it?
Yes. I have.
Seriously?
Well yes.
How come you haven't?
- [unzipping]
- [belt buckle clinking]
Oh my God.
Okay, just be gentle.
Come here.
- You sure?
- Yes.
- Yeah?
- Yes.
Yeah.
- Should I?
- Yes.
Lower, lower down.
Ah! Just wait a minute.
Slowly Wait. Wait
Ah!
Forget it, it won't go in.
No, it'll fit. It'll fit.
It'll fit.
It'll fit.
[both grunt]
[grunts]
No, I I can't
It's useless. I can't do it.
Come on, you can do it.
Look at me.
Look at me.
It'll be okay.
[grunting]
[grunts]
[groans]
- [grunts]
- [panting]
[grunting]
[straining]
[sighs]
[Rocco] Something exploded inside of me.
For the first time, I had experienced
what power is between males and females.
A bridge that rises but does not unite.
We can
We can try again.
We can try again, more more slowly, huh?
[atmospheric music fades]
Hey! Are you in love, Rocco?
Get in, asshole. Actually, you can drive.
- Really?
- Yes, drive.
["Stella Stai" by Umberto Tozzi plays]
Mm. Gently, feel this beast growl!
Let me feel the horsepower.
You better let the whole world
hear that engine's horsepower.
- Wow! It's an amazing feeling.
- [laughing]
This is Pigalle.
You want to fuck? Find it right here.
[indistinct conversation]
Margot!
[music stops]
Where is she?
She's already onto another. You know?
[chuckles]
Come on.
[various women exclaiming]
[soft choral music playing]
- [woman 1] We can have lots of fun.
- [woman 2] Ooh, he's got a friend.
[Tommy] Don't worry about women.
- Don't think about Sylvie.
- Gentlemen, good evening.
- Aw, come back!
- [Tommy] They fuck with your mind.
No one fucks with us.
Who fucks with us, huh? [chuckles]
No one fucks with us.
No one fucks with us!
Drink?
- [laughing]
- [woman] Come on, cutie.
Valerie!
[woman] Good evening.
[Tommy] Ro!
Ro, come here!
Over here!
Huh?
Over here.
Don't worry, I'll cover this.
- Mmm.
- Let me make you feel good.
[Tommy sighs]
Open wide, he's got
the biggest dick in the world!
[women moaning]
Hey, watch out!
Careful with those four teeth.
Oh, brother
[Rocco moans]
That's enough. Off you go.
[woman chuckling]
Hey, if a girl falls in love with you,
she has to bring in the cash.
She has to have an income as well.
Understand me?
Come on.
[Rocco panting]
[Tommy chuckles]
I always take you up to rooftops.
You know why?
Because we have to be above everyone else.
Ah
[sighs]
Free yourself, Ro!
[unzipping]
[Tommy] You ever think that
we'd be pissing on heads in Paris?
The Tanos pissing on
people's heads in Paris?
- [chuckling]
- Thanks, Tommy.
What are you doing?
That's my neighbor's head, Rocco!
Bonjour!
[sighs] Bonjour?
You pissed in her face.
- [pants zip]
- [chuckling]
You can tell you're not ready yet.
Stay with me, and you'll learn fast.
Paris can suck our dicks!
You can suck our dicks, you hear me?
- [bell jingles]
- [man] Oh yeah.
Ah, here's my pasta!
Thanks! It's al dente, I hope, yeah?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Thanks. Thanks.
[indistinct background chatter]
- Sir.
- Thank you.
Are you alright?
Uh
I work nearby. I'm a physiotherapist.
Once you take the bandage off,
come by my office.
I can help you.
[background chatter continues]
[pulsing instrumental music builds]
[therapist] Open your hand.
Close it.
Try to squeeze it.
Squeeze harder.
Mm-hmm. Open it.
Okay.
Lie down.
[chuckles lightly] Lie down and relax.
I'm going to put pressure on your arm.
Tell me if it hurts.
There?
And here?
Your arm is quite weak
Right there.
[Rocco] I was driven by a desire
I could neither understand nor control.
Thank you.
Sylvie had turned it on,
and almost got burned by it.
[pulsing music rises]
Now that desire full of life was
looking everywhere for its path.
- [panting]
- [thumping]
[moaning softly]
[music fades]
Don't touch that.
I can't believe you read this.
You disappeared.
- [exhales]
- You smell like girl.
Did you fuck them?
Tell me.
- Tell me!
- Yes.
How many?
That's not important.
Tell me.
Lots. It definitely went in this time.
[Sylvie sobs softly]
[gentle music builds slowly]
Why not with me, Rocco?
Why don't you want to try again with me?
- Because it was horrible.
- The first time is always like that.
So, that's how it is.
Guess you're a man like them?
Well, if that's what you see.
No.
That's not what I see.
You're not like those men.
I feel like I can be free
whenever I look at you, Rocco.
Then your eyesight's bad.
No, I love you.
And you're just afraid of loving me.
I'm not afraid of that.
I don't love you.
Rocco!
[Rocco] When Sylvie said,
"I love you," I felt nothing.
Because that desire only wanted itself.
[woman 1] Come here. You coming?
Come on! You like what you see?
- I'll give you a blow job.
- [woman 2] Look at that one!
Are you coming with me, cutie pie?
[women overlapping indistinctly]
[gentle music builds]
[soft grunting, panting]
[man grunting]
[shuddering, sighs]
- [man exhales]
- [pants zip]
- [man chuckles]
- [woman muttering]
[music fades out]
Hey Ma.
[mom] Rocco!
How are you? Is it cold there?
Yeah, Ma. Very cold.
Colder than at home. No sea nearby.
What's wrong, Rocco?
Nothing, Ma.
- You sure?
- Nothing, Ma.
Well
I'm running out of time. I need to go.
Alright. May the Lord protect you.

Tonight ♪
With you ♪

Tonight, me and you ♪
[both chuckling]
Hey, Rocco.
What's up? What's with the face?
Nothing.
Then get a move on. We're going. Hm?
See you at the restaurant.
Mm [kisses]
[Lucia chuckles]
[chair scrapes]
[door shuts]
Last night I saw you.
I saw you too.
[chuckles lightly]
Tommaso knows?
Go tell him yourself.
Isn't that what you do?
No, he'll kill you
if he finds out about this.
You're such a liar.
You don't want to hurt Tommaso.
That's why.
Protecting me isn't your priority.
And Sylvie?
Have you told her?
Sylvie's got nothing to do with it.
Really?
So, what? Sylvie is love,
and I'm just a whore?
Listen, I am in love with Tommaso.
I should've listened to my mother.
It's convenient for you
to think I'm the bad one.
What was it?
A woman needs to bring in the cash
if she's in love with you.
Isn't that what your brother says?
Ah.
What's the matter?
You mean you didn't get that
Tomasso's the one who is sending me out?
You only see what you want to see,
Rocco, and that's your problem.
Love
I mean, it's difficult, Rocco.
What were you looking for?
Were you looking for me?
No.
No?
But you're always looking for me.
You don't even know it.
[inhales]
Tell me why you do it.
Well, because I enjoy it.
Don't talk like that with me.
[exhales deeply]
Look at you, you sweet boy.
You talk about love,
but you don't know what love is.
["Questa notte c'è" intensifies]
[song fades out]
[woman] Don't worry.
There's no need to be scared.
[indistinct overlapping chatter]
[Rocco] Lucia was right.
I did not know what love was.
I would have learned from her,
and in Pigalle,
that you only love on your knees.
You triumph only on your knees,
when flesh submits to flesh and enjoys
[panting]
[slow operatic music playing]
More tongue.
Mmm.
- [buckle jingling]
- [unzipping]
[Rocco moans]
[moaning softly]
[panting]
Does it get hard?
If I'm turned on, yes.
Do everything to me.
[spits]
[breathing heavily]
[Rocco] My power took me
into the beating heart of organic life.
Into the delirium of what
it experiences and desires.
It was like a bull that can't find peace.
Feel the beast.
- [Rocco] That looks for the mount.
- Mount me.
[Rocco] That rises.
Enter me. [moans]
[Rocco] Penetrates.
[Lucia] Come for me.
[moans softly]
[Rocco] That dies.
[Rocco] Every creature seeks
its own place to live and love.
- You ready?
- [background conversations]
Yeah.
[Rocco] That place for me was "106."
ENTRANCE
[soft panting, moaning]
Every power seeks its peace,
and peace is an explosion,
a scream, an orgy.
["Dream On (2009 Remaster)"
by Ultravox playing]
How are you?
- That's him?
- Mm-hmm.
Hmm.
It seems that Julienne couldn't tame you.
You must have a raging fire in you.
What's your name?
Rocco.
[mom] The wolf has eaten the sheep ♪
Beyond the little field ♪
Ma?
Do you recognize me?
Of course I do, my boy.
So loved and unlucky.
Ma, it's Rocco.
[woman] You'll be our number one.
[breathing heavily]
[electronic music playing]
[chuckles]
[Rocco] That was heaven.
I went back.
[women moaning]
And again.
Mm.
[Rocco] And again.
[panting]
I'd never felt so free or happy.
[moaning, panting]
[electronic music intensifies]
[panting, moaning]
[woman] Lick my boot.
Yes, you do that well.
[drum and bass music playing]
Here's your brother.
[music fades out]
[Jean Claude] Anyway, you were right.
Mr. Gerome, check out the brain on Rocco.
[Gerome chuckling] Right.
- What a brain, yeah.
- Italians aren't very intelligent.
They're fucking animals.
Their brains are here.
[laughing]
I told you to stay away from my sister.
I gave you a chance, but
you know you only think with your dick.
[woman] What's going on here?
[Jean Claude] Let's go.
Rocco gets it. See you.
[woman] Everything okay, Rocco?
Come with me.
No, no!
- Leave her alone!
- I'll strangle you with this
- I'll strangle you!
- Get off!
[woman gasping]
What the fuck are you doing?
You're not a dog!
Take that fucking thing off!
[elevator chimes]
PARIS 2004
- Gabi.
- Huh?
I'm gonna get some fresh air. Huh?
- Now?
- Yeah, just for five minutes.
- You speak to them, okay?
- They have been waiting for us all night.
Rocco, don't fuck this up.
- You want me to come with you?
- No.
[Tommy] You know why
I had you come to Paris,
even though you made
those things up about Lucia?
Because when I spoke to you
as a kid,
I felt like my words
made a difference,
like they changed your life.
You're my brother. Look at me, Ro!
I can put the world at your feet.
We'll go home just like kings Rocco.
- Understand?
- I know where my place is, Tommy.
Where?
With that group of fags?
Like a dog on a leash? Huh?
Your dick will fuck you.
Women will fuck you.
You see how Sylvie fucked you?
Never go back there.
You hear me?
[soft instrumental music playing]
Tuesday we're gonna do a job in Marseille.
Just go≥ and you'll be forgiven.
Promise me you won't go there anymore.
- You wanna fuck
- I'll go to Pigalle.
Go to Pigalle. Good job.
Good job.
Fucking is one thing.
Getting fucked is another. Ha.
[inhales]
[exhales deeply]
I've come back.
You look like you've seen a ghost.
Come here.
Come here.
[breathing shakily]
[Rocco] I knew it.
- [Tommy chuckles]
- I knew you were alive, Tommaso.
- [Tommy] We'll fuck the world, huh?
- [Rocco chuckles]
We'll fuck the world!
[Rocco sighs]
[music turns ominous]
[Tommy chuckles softly]
Huh.
Get the car.
Come on, hurry up.
We got one more thing to do together.
Me and you.
[Rocco] Tommaso was the person
I loved most in the world.
But I was not like him.
I never went to Marseille
He'll be here.
Because my road wasn't the same as his.
It's fucking late.
Tommaso! For fuck's sake!
[engine turns over]
[woman moans]
["Voyage Voyage" by Desireless playing]
Please, forgive me.
[Rocco] In the midst
of that array of perverts,
in the kingdom of total freedom,
there was no longer any difference
between fucking and getting fucked.
[panting]
[man] Good evening, darling.
You're beautiful.
[Rocco] This was my kingdom.
The place where my power expanded.
The place where
a child's dreams come true
- Ah That's your Italian Stallion.
- Mm-hmm.
- the place where I met Gabriel Pontello.
- Girls, go ahead.
Show me what you can do. Eh?
Do we have to tell him what to do,
or does he have an idea?
[woman] Rocco?
Is there a problem?
[moaning]
[all panting]
["Voyage Voyage" intensifies]
[Rocco panting]
[Rocco] The place where I was born,
right in front of Supersex's eyes.
