Salvatore 'Toto' Di Vita - Adult : Elena, perhaps in the future we could...
Elena Mendola - Adult, Director's cut only : No, Salvaotre, there is no future. There is only the past. Even last night's encounter was just a dream. A wonderful dream. When we were young, we never did it. Do you remember? Now that it has happened, I can't imagine a better ending.
Salvatore 'Toto' Di Vita - Adult : I'll never agree with you. Never.
-
Salvatore 'Toto' Di Vita - Adult : After all these years, I thought I was stronger, that I'd forgotten a lot of things. But, in fact, I find I'm right back where I was, as if I'd never been away.
-
Salvatore 'Toto' Di Vita - Adult : Mama, I deserted you. Ran out on you like a bandit, without any explanation.
Maria Di Vita - Older : I never asked for any. You don't have to explain anything to me. I always thought you did what was right. Why dwell on it? You were right to leave. You did what you wanted to do. Every time I call you, a different woman answers. But I never heard in any of their voices that they really loved you. I would've known. All the same, I'd have liked to see you settled down in love with someone. But your life is there. Here there are only ghosts.

Salvatore 'Toto' Di Vita - Adult : Salvatore, forgive me. I'll explain later what happened. Not finding you here was terrible. Unfortunately, this evening, my mother and I are leaving for Tuscany. We're moving there. But you' re the only one I love, I'll never be with anybody else, I promise. Here's the address of a girlfriend of mine where you can write to me. Don't abandon me. Love and kisses, Elena.

Salvatore 'Toto' Di Vita - Adult : When did you close it down?
Spaccafico : Six years ago in May. Nobody came anymore. You know better than I, Mr. Di Vita - the economy, TV, videos. The old movie business is just a memory.
