GiorgioJose owns one of the biggest bull farms. Sometimes at night this madman puts on his own bullfight.
Giulietta BoldriniWhat courage! Isn't it dangerous?
Giorgio's friendNo, signora, it's poetry. Poetry is never dangerous. My best friends are toreadors. They compose music, write verse, and abhor blood.

Giorgio's friendWater. When I need something absolutely pure, something sincere, I always ask for water. Simple things are so important in life. Things that don't conceal something else. Water is like a sincere glance that conceals nothing. Don't be afraid of the truth. The truth sets us free. After all, who cares about other people's opinions? In my country there's a saying : "I am my own roof, window and hearth. I feed upon my words and drink from my thoughts. Therefore I am happy."
Giulietta BoldriniAre you real, yes or no? And what advice can you give me? Tell me, what should I do?
Giorgio's friendI wouldn't know. I just want you to live happily.

DoloresMy art is deeply spiritual. You say no, eh? Let's give back to God his physicality. I was afraid of God. He crushed me, terrified me. And why? I imagined him abstractly. But no. He's got the most superb body ever. In my statues, he's a physical God, a perfectly shaped hero that I can desire and make my lover.

Lynx-EyesLet's hear from our psychologist.
Lynx-Eyes' agentLooking at the photograph, I say he's about 40, difficult personality, cold rages, a ladies' man. Be careful, 'cause he's capable of rash gestures. Hidden fear. A great need for his mother.

PsychodramatistTall old trees are the most impressive symbol of this way of life, deeply rooted in the earth, branches stretched out into the sky, opening in all directions. Theirs is a spontaneous growth. This is the great yet simple mystery we must learn: to fulfill ourselves spontaneously, avoiding passions and desires.

Giorgio's friend"No one understood the perfume of the dark magnolia of your womb. No one knew you tormented a hummingbird of love between your teeth." You love Lorca's poetry, right? Destiny plays some strange games. I was in Madrid and I didn't want to leave because of a foreboding. Now I am happy to be here. There's nothing to life if you take away nights like this one. I owe you a happy moment and hope it won't be the last.

BhismaDid you buy those stockings?
Giulietta BoldriniNo. What stockings?
BhismaThe black fishnets. Women want to be treated like angels, but they don't do their job -...

BhismaGiulietta, do you know the Kama Sutra? Sexual intercourse is a conflict. To be happy, you must behave as if in combat. The place to be fought over is the body.

DoloresYou haven't seen my new works. Looking at my statues isn't enough. You must touch them. Try. I touch them, I shiver. They feel alive. Michelangelo shouted at his Moses: "Speak!" I'd like to shout at these powerful forms: "Love me!" I really would.
