THE ILLUMINATI - VIGNETTE FROM JULIET OF THE SPIRITS |
|
by Federico Fellini [Val] Your little house is a dream by day.
[Juliet] Ciao, Val. Watch the dog. There are cats everywhere. [Val] Enchanting! Such an intoxicating perfume! Look at the dew. This is dew, isn't it? Such purity. My heart aches, it's all so beautiful. I want to roll around naked in it. [Juliet] Why don't you? [Val] I can't. We've become so complicated, so uncivilized. Ciao, stellina. What are you doing? It's wet here, though. Is the humidity bad for your rheumatism? Down, down.
[Val] No, dear, don't get up. [Juliet] Sit here, Valentina. Move the peppers. [Val] What are you doing?
[Juliet] Storing peppers for winter. [Val] In a wreath? Oh, a wreath of peppers! Such a good little housewife! I am totally useless. I'm so ashamed! Why am I this way, eh? I feel so uprooted, so adrift. Peppers are a tiny thing, yet if I could do it, it might save me.
