The Secret of Santa Vittoria (1969)

Patrizia Valturri: Angela

Quotes 

• Angela : I love him so much. I can't help sweating.

  Rosa Bombolini : Well, I understand. Believe me, my girl, I understand you. You see, Fabio even in your sleep.

  Angela : Yes, Mama! Yes! And when I talk to him, I can't help it, the juices flow inside me.

  Rosa Bombolini : What?

  Angela : The juices, Mama!

  [Rosa slaps Angela] 

  Angela : You can hit me all you like, but, that doesn't change anything. You are a woman, Mama. And so am I. It's time you taught me everything you know.

  Rosa Bombolini : No! What do I know after a life with your father?

• Rosa Bombolini : I told my parents I want that man in my bed. Only him! My father should have hit me over the head with the bottle.

  Angela : But, I don't want to marry Papa. I want to marry Fabio.

  Rosa Bombolini : I had him in bed. I had him! And that was all. Drunk! Drunk everyday from 12 noon to 4 in the morning. And the rest of the time snoring, like a jackass!

• Angela : I always cry when Fabio goes.

  Italo Bombolini : Of course, he's like a brother to you.

  Angela : I don't love him like a brother. I love him like a woman.

  Italo Bombolini : Angela... you're too young to think such things.

  Angela : That's what Fabio thinks. That I am a child.

  Italo Bombolini : He's right!

  Angela : But, I am 16 years old!

  Italo Bombolini : You're only 16.

  Angela : And I have the breasts of a woman.

  [cups her breasts] 

  Italo Bombolini : Angela, please.

  Angela : And at night, when I'm in my bed, my breasts *ache* for Fabio.

  Italo Bombolini : Don't do that.

  [slaps Angela's hands cupping her breasts] 

  Angela : And I only want to be with him.
