THE TYRANT OF HIM SAY ALL, SAY MORE!
AND STAB WITH THE FUEY OF A
SLAVE'S HAND, THE TYRANT'S INFAMY
WOMAN? OF HER BITE YOU MAY PERISH...
...BUT SULLY NOT YOUR LIFE SPEAKING
ILL OF WOMAN! JOSE MARTI
Here come the cigarette girls!
My name is Jose Lizarrabengoa,
"The Basque" to most
I was born in a village
in Navarre 23years ago
I joined the army...
...before I was 18
My service record is spotless
Get in the shade,
sweetie, or you'll melt!
Cook like you walk
and I'd lick your pan clean
That arse must shit sweets
I could eat you, dress and all
Hey, gorgeous!
They say women and cats
never come when you call,...
...yet come when
you pay them no heed
Hey, darling,...
...I fancy that chain of yours
It's for my ramrod
Where does that hang at night?
Behind the door?
Want to count the moles on my body?
,Mary appeared to the shepherds,...
...the children Melania
and Maximus,...
...and told of plagues, wars
and famine in Europe,...
...and earthquakes the world over
The Virgin said:...
...Melania, these words
won't always be secret
You can publish them in 1858
Society is on the eve
of its worst calamities
It will bend under a rod of iron,
and drink the wrath of God
This will be its darkest hour,
a crisis for the Church.,
Give me water
,The Antichrist will be
born of a Hebrew nun,...
...a false virgin, in league
with the serpent of old,...
...mistress of impurity,
a bishop's brat...,
Is the Basque a good shot?
Not interested
Sour grapes. You know who said that
Some foxy bitch
Better a whore
than a cigarette girl
Is that you or your mother?
Does soldier boy smoke?
-Ask him
Give him a nice cigar
Here,...
...give him this
See if it lights him up
Slag!
Shag bag!
Stinks of dead fish
Blotchy its, try washing!
You reek of gypsy dick
Call me gypsy and I'll knife you
You've been kissed already,
oh, dear, dear, dear
Gypsy girl
You've been kissed already,
I don't want you now
Want two scars, eh?
Let me go, Carmen
Damn you, bitch.
I'll scar you for life!
Let me go!
Be quiet, the lot of you!
My name is Prosper,
Prospero to Spaniards
I have no specific nationality,
Being half-English, half-French
I am a writer, a traveler,
a humanist, an archaeologist...
...with a penchant for delving into
the mysteries of the human heart
In autumn 1830, I ventured
down the roads of Spain, ...
...in search of facts about the
Nasrid and Umayyad dynasties, ...
...tantamount to researching
two historic Islamic capitals:...
...Cordoba and Granada
Is it much further?
-Nearly there, sir
Chance, ...
...or perhaps my guide and companiors
Familiarity with the land,...
...led us to a shady river bank,...
...delightful in the extreme
A traveler could not wish for...
...more peaceful a spot to rest
Smoke
But the honour of arriving
First was not mine
Sir, shouldn't we go back?
See to the horses
Did we disturb your rest, friend?
Do you smoke?
Do you have a lighter...
...I could borrow?
It's genuine prime Havana
It's an age since I smoked!
My man prudently brought supplies
Do join us in a snack
Do you know the region?
What valley is this?
I don't know
I'd ceased to believe in bandits...
...of whom I'd heard but never met
I'm not what you think, sir
My beliefs forbid crime
Life has made me...
...the opposite of what I wished
Continue, please
Why? To what end?
It's always the others who speak,...
...never the bandits
I'm a writer
I listen to life
If we ever meet again,
which I doubt,...
...I may tell you my story,
but not today
Your servant covets
the price on my head
I must be on my way
Your name, at least?
I'm called Jose
Jose Lizarrabengoa
Don't worry...
...no one will report you
Thank you
God be with you
Jose, the Basque
He's a murderer,...
...vermin wanted by the law
He's done us no ill
Nor you nor I have ever seen him
Welcome back, don Prospero
Thank you
Well attended by the friars, ...
...I stayed in Cordoba
longer than planned
Excuse me, don Prospero,...
...the brothers wish to see
Your watch again. May they?
A pleasure.
-Thank you
In the mornings, ...
...I studied the valuable documents
Kept in the monastery,...
...and at dusk,
when it was cooler,...
...I visited the places
I'd always dreamed of
Do you have the time?
Quarter to five
Thank you
What a superb watch!
Are you French?
Shall I tell your fortune?
Are you a gypsy?
If you prefer
Then if you're not a gypsy,...
...are you a witch?
I'm in league with Satan
Again.
-What?
Your watch
Of course
May I take your arm?
-Naturally
They say an Andalusian beauty...
...must have three black features:
Her eyelashes,
eyebrows and hair
Three white features:
Her face, teeth and hands
And three pink features:...
...Her nipples, lips and nails
May I have your spyglass?
My seductress fell short
of such perfection...
...but had, for a writer like me, ...
...the added attraction of calling
Herself a slave of Satan
Do you have a coin?
-Yes
Cross your left palm with it
Put it here
Bachelor.
-Yes
Turned forty-five
Indeed
Spiteful heart
Why so?
Your beloved loves another...
...of nobler birth
You flee this woman, but in vain
She lives in your heart
It is written
Would you know more?
About what?
The cure for your ills
Is it costly?
It's a sweet balsam
Worth all the gold on earth
Keep still. Don't turn round
Who's this?
A Frog I met
Why bring him here?
Seen those rings?
Tell him to go
Clear off
Just a minute
You, here?
As you see, it's a small world
You interrupted just when...
...the future seemed interesting
She's beyond hope
But she'll soon meet her match
Let's go
Walk down the street...
...and forget tonight's events
My watch!
Best forgotten
A few days later,...
...I employed Antonio once more...
...to help me move
to what I suspected...
...had been as important
a citadel as Cordoba
Is this common in Andalusia?
Don Prospero!
In barely a week,...
...we saw the earth
open and give birth...
...to the testimony of an
Almost unknown culture
A few days later, on myreturn
to the monastery,...
...I received a surprise
Thanks, Antonio
Praised be the Holiest!
Welcome, my dear friend
I, your servant,...
...and my brethren were
praying for your soul
What do you mean?
So you were not killed?
We know you were robbed
They found your watch
in that bandit's house
Praise be to God
The accused will rise
The trial took place
some days later
The verdict
And I was summoned as a witness
This court,...
...by the powers vested in it...
...by HM Ferdinand VII,
King of Spain,...
...made up of the
disciplinary council, finds...
...Jose Lizarrabengoa...
...guilty of banditry
with military dishonour
His crime is considered proven,...
...he being the confessed,
convicted author...
...of the crimes of murder
and armed robbery
Consequently,...
...it condemns Jose Lizarrabengoa...
...to death by garroting
Signed in Cordoba
Carmen
Your neck's shorter. That's it!
I brought you these
Anything else I can do?
Thanks, I don't think...
...I'll need any more
Do you think bribes,...
...or the influence of
friends might get...
...your sentence commuted?
Arrange a Mass
for my soul's salvation
Do you know Seville,...
...that huge building by
the city wall near the river?
Help!
She's dead! She's killed her!
Back there, in the cigar room!
Help me, please! Help me!
To the guardroom and calm her down!
Take two men and see what's going on
Fate's finger had just
traced my future in fire
It's all yours, come and try it
Let us through!
Out of the way! Quiet!
Fight, fight, bastard!
Quiet! Quiet!
Give me all you've got Basque!
Tell Big Nose we prefer you
I'm bleeding to death!
Get me a priest, and a hangman
to garrotte that bitch!
Your mother was the bitch!
Silence!
Right, what's going on?
You must come with me
Only because I trust you
Give me my mantilla.
-Let's go
Slut!
Bitch!
You're for it now!
Shut up, all of you!
Silence!
Murderess!
Anything to say?
Carmen started it
Rubbish! It was Fernanda.
-Yes, Fernanda
Silence!
Speak up, I'm waiting
Knifing people is a serious matter
It was your fault!
It always is!
I'll get you! Fuck you!
Silence!
I'll get you!
And I'll get you!
You're too free-handed
Bring a rope
Sergeant
Tie her tight, Basque!
Tie her tongue too!
Lock her up. Let the judges decide
Let the nuns look after her!
A jinx on them, Carmen!
Eat ,em up, Carmen,
they're only men!
Watch our for your husband!
Why are they taking you?
Where are we going, officer?
To prison, lass
Have pity, officer!
You're young and gallant
Keep walking
The rope's too tight!
My wrists!
I'll loosen it
Look...
...let me escape and I'll give you
a charm to drive women crazy
Cut out the nonsense
You're off to prison.
Orders are orders
I'll be giving the orders soon
Really? How come?
I know you keep my carnation
next to your heart
It's bewitched
Keep walking
Go on
Oh, God in Heaven!
By all my ancestors!
What's to become of me?
Virgin Mary,
take pity on this sinner!
You're crying?
Where's your pride now?
She hasn't done anything.
Let her go!
It's not for me
So, what was the fight over?
-You
Over me?
They said, like all Basques,
you were only fit for chopping wood
Well, now...
You speak Basque?
I'm from Etxalar. You?
-From Elizondo
Gypsies brought me here
But I'm Basque
They insult me,
for not being like them
Fellow countryman, friend,...
...won't you lend me a hand?
Move it
She was lying, sir
She always lied
But she spoke and I believed her
She was stronger than me
She spoke terrible Basque,
but I took her for a compatriot
I was crazed, oblivious
I thought if a Spaniard
had spoken ill of my land,...
...I'd have slashed his face,...
...as she did to her workmate
Compatriot,...
...if I pushed you and you fell, these
two Castilian pigs would stop me
Go ahead, my friend...
...and may the Virgin help you
Quick, she's escaping!
Juanito!
Get the hounds!
For negligence
in the course of duty,...
...sergeant Jose Lizarrabengoa...
...is demoted to private and
sentenced to one month's prison
About turn!
Five years of discipline
and dedication!
Five years of irreproachable
conduct in the hope of promotion...
...to lieutenant
What had brought me to this?
An insolent cigarette girl
who duped me...
...and was probably, even now,
beguiling another somewhere
Despite myself,
se pervaded my mind
I looked through the bars...
...of my cell,...
...and of all the women
who passed, not one...
...came within an inch
of that devil's daughter
The worst was yet to come:...
...At the Colonel's annual party...
...they made me stand guard
like a common soldier
But fate had shown no
more than part of its game
The rest was to come
that same night
Been promoted to private,
eh, rookie?
If you like fried food,...
...find Lillas Pastia's
tavern in Triana
Fall out!
Who's dancing?
-Carmen
Innkeeper, a bottle for that table
Two house wines
For one look, a world,...
...for one smile, a heaven, ...
...for one kiss of your lips, ...
...I die ofjoy
Twenty-four hours
has the day,...
...if it had twenty-seven,
then those three...
That's enough of that!
What happened?
-She's crazy
Lieutenants get her pussy purring
He's a private
Wait
Look at him!
He looks like a tin soldier
Ever had your heart eaten out?
What are you won'th?
A measly ten?
Better than nothing, I suppose
Let's spend it all
And you can spoil me
Hear the bells?
Ringing at night attracts witches
Don't laugh, dimwit
They say you're a witch
Only Saturdays
Who is it?
-Lodging for the night
Let's go
A snack for your girls
Put it down
Your favourite room
Return the baskets
Come, girls, don Angel's waiting
Can't get it up
even with three of us
He's a saint
What did you pray?
For you to return
to the cigarette factory
To leave the world
of Pastia's tavern
Why not pray for a windfall?
I prayed you'd be good
and take pity on me
This Virgin is Andalusian,...
...and knows I won't change
All Virgins are our Mother Mary
I prayed to the Virgin of Nievas,
our Virgin of Elizondo
I have a pact with the Devil,...
...and won't return
to the cigarette factory
But I'll be good to you
Come
Better she doesn't see this
Am I really the first?
I'll show you how to do it, rookie
You'll learn a lot tonight
Are you really a virgin?
Where are you going?
Roll call at the barracks
The barracks?
-Yes
Are you a puppet on a string?
I have to go
Well, go on, leave
Clear off!
You're such a wimp!
Here!
Go!
What can I do? I can't stay
It's my duty to go
So, go. Lick your commander's arse
Carmen
I'm a soldier
I belong to the army.
Don't you see I must go?
I can't stay
What day is today?
Yesterday was Monday
And the date?
No, quiet!
Don't say it
A bad day
Why?
Not now
I said no
Listen, Jose...
...consider yourself paid
I'd have forgotten the debt,
but I liked you
So we're quits
When will I see you again?
When you stop being a fool
So, light a candle to your Basque
Virgin, she's earned it
Carmen
After that night,
I had no other thought
I spent the day roaming,
hoping to see her
Carmen!
Excuse me
Believe me, sir,...
...every corner I turned,
I hoped to bump into Carmen
Where's Carmen?
Look for her in hell
Hail, Queen, mother of mercy,
our life, sweetness and hope, hail
To you I cry, exiled son of Eve
To you I sigh, I mourn and weep
O gentle! O loving!
O sweet Mary, hail!
Turn your merciful eyes
on this sinner and ease his exile
Make her return to me.
Make her see the light
Let goodness flood her soul
Make her love me and be loved
The Virgin heard
my prayer, in part...
...for one night, on guard
a tone of Seville's gates...
Want some extra cash?
The men with packets...
...let them past.
-No
I can't let them past.
I obey orders
You didn't that night
in Candilejo St
I don't want dirty money
If you don't want money,...
...we can visit Candilejo St. again
No
If you won't, I know who will
I'll invite your lieutenant
to Candilejo St
He'll say yes
Bye, dimwit!
I'll laugh the day
the orders are to hang you
Carmen! Carmen!
When? What time?
Eleven o'clock and all's well!
It's eleven o'clock
Nothing to say?
-I'm in afoul mood
I've got more reason to be
I didn't like having
to haggle last night
I'm not here out of love
Here
The cash I promised,
For your troubles
Wanted pussy, didn't you?
Here it is
If I killed you now,...
...I'd save myself a lot of tears
I'm sure...
...but it's not time
Tears of a dragoon
Ideal for one of my potions
If you kiss me,...
...maybe I'll love you again a little
Bear me no grudge
I love you despite myself,...
...the best way to love, they say
I can't help it
You're my first and
Last thought each day
The next night I waited in vain
I should have stopped seeing
Carmen but she was right:...
...It was written
Written on my mind and my heart
Every step I took brought
me closer to the abyss
Reversed cards,
they never speak straight
Well,...
...an older man will retire you,...
...but won't marry you
He won't leave his family
The man of your life
will appear later,...
...asking you to leave him
That's it for today, girls
Hello, handsome
Gorgeous
Where's Carmen?
Who knows where that one gets to?
-You. Where is she?
Carmen is like the weather:...
...The hotter the sun,
the nearer the storm
Don't wait
Why? What do you know?
It's good advice. Don't wait. Go
Do you know who Carmen is?
Do you want to?
At 14,...
...they'd sold her cherry four times.
While her mother...
...screwed Frogs, her father
killed them for 10 ,reales,
When she's broke,...
...she comes here and lays
Why Carmen?
What do you see in the bitch?
What do you want?
A tender young virgin?
I can provide one
A 22-year-old,
adoring and a good cook?
I can provide one
Or a bearer of healthy offspring?
I can provide one, too
And if you'd prefer...
...a real woman,...
...a woman with experience,...
...who knows what a man is,...
...and what he likes in bed...
...and out of bed...
...then...
...I...
...can provide it all,...
...and all at once, if you wish.
-Enough!
I want Carmen
I want her, for myself
For me and no one else
Just me
Why are you here?
Go
Get out, dolt!
Damn the pair of you!
Attention!
Stand to attention, I say!
I've only contempt
for you and that whore!
This means a court-martial
Obey!
-Whore!
Attention!
Whore!
Attention!
Lieutenant...
Get out
Carmen...
-Go, I said!
Go and pray to your
Virgin until I come
Let's hope she can get you
out of this mess. Quick!
Go!
Most merciful Virgin Mary,...
...who has never been
known to deny refuge...
...to those who seek
thy protection,...
...I come to thee, O Mother,
Virgin of virgins,...
...and, groaning under my weight
of sin, I stand before thee
O my Lady! I offer
my whole self to thee
This very night, I give thee...
...my eyes, ears, tongue,
heart, my whole being
Since I am yours,
Mother of goodness,...
...keep and defend me as your vessel
Amen
Through my fault, through
my own most grievous fault
Here, civilian clothes
You can't be seen in uniform
Your lieutenant's done for,...
...so it's time to change lifestyle
For starters,
to dress as a civilian
Come
You dumb rookie!
All you do is mess up.
I said I'd bring you bad luck
You'll have to act now
If you've the guts,
take to the hills and be a smuggler
Here
It's from Lillas Pastia,
for friends in Jerez who'll help
See, my outlaw friends
aren't so bad
There's a bay horse outside.
Lucky colour, they say
Every cloud has a silver lining
From sergeant to private
You killed a man and gained freedom
You no longer work for His Majesty
Now you'll sleep under the stars
Carmen,...
...do you love me?
How dim can you get?
The proof is
I never asked for a cent
When she said these things,
I felt like strangling her
However, as I journeyed
towards my new destiny,...
...I dreamed of
Carmen being mine, ...
...of a life of adventure,
my lover mounted behind me
So insane can love drive one
Dancaire, you're wanted
Afternoon.
-Afternoon
I have a letter for you
A friend of Pastia's,
he wants to join us
Welcome
He's a lousy guitarist,
but has his reasons, right?
Aristotle
Reads books and knows all
that's going on in the world
The first man to compare
a woman with a flower...
...was a poet. The second, a cretin
Says so here
Juanele
Hardly speaks, but when he does...
Go on, Juanele!
Long live the Constitution!
Long live the Constitution!
-Down with the Constitution!
Down with the Constitution!
-Long live Ferdinand VII!
Any news, sergeant?
One move and you're dead.
Throw down your arms
Get down.
-Down
Dismount.
-Take them away
You deaf, or what? Move.
-Drop them
Move it
Go on
The paper
Juanele, their swords
You only die once
and the law can only...
...condemn you to death once
Money! Bags of money!
Gents, that's the way to Rome
Hurry!
,Ferdinand VII,
by the grace of God, etc, etc,...
...it pleases me
to issue this edict...
...on the occasion of the birthday
of the Queen, my beloved spouse;...
...I hereby abolish forever,
in all my dominions,...
...execution by hanging;...
...ordering henceforth
death by simple garrotte,...
...for commoners;...
...by vile garrotte,
for dishonourable crimes,...
...regardless of class...,
I never killed anyone
I tell a lie. We killed
Napoleors soldiers like flies,...
...but ministers praised us for that
We were young
Know how many titles
old Big Nose has got?
Listen...
...King of Castile,
Leon and Aragon...
...of the Two Sicilies, Jerusalem,
Navarre, Granada,...
...the East and West Indies,...
...Archduke of Austria,
Duke of Burgundy,...
...Brabante and Milan,
Lord of Biscay...
...and Molina
What ails him?
Pining for his tart
His tart? What tart?
Carmen
Was he really your general?
My lieutenant
Beat him in a sword fight,
fair and square, face to face
He fell onto my blade
Can't blame the stick
if the toad leaps on it
One toad less
They looked up to me
For killing a man
For a few days it seemed
My dream had come true
What's that?
It was my mother's
Kill a man and you get
your freedom, rookie
Freedom and a woman
Maybe
,Chapter 28
The things that happened to Candide,
Cunegonde and Dr. Panglos
Forgive me again,
he said to the Baron
Forgive me, Father,
for running my sword through you
Say no more, said the Baron,
I confess to certain aggression...,
Tell me you're happy
I'm happy
Learn, Juanele
With two stones?
They're looking
Let them
Move, rookie, move.
Don't leave it all to me
A visitor!
Who is it?
-One-Eye
Who's One-Eye?
-Don't you know?
Your lover's husband.
He got out of prison yesterday
Well?
When two are in love
with one woman...
...and both are in the same place...
Let's have a feel.
I'll stick my head in there
... and the other grits his teeth...
He's drunk, not up to anything
What is it, rookie?
I only love you
He bought me when I was twelve
Let's have no knifings over a ring
You came at the right time
When I'm with him, I think of you
Greetings, Garcia
Greetings, Jose Maria
Long time, no see
Where've you been?
-Doing time
What's the score?
A big shipment
English pistols, tobacco
It's dangerous
That's my view,...
...for what it's won'th
Our back up?
Me, Jose Maria Hinojosa,...
...Tempranillo
Agreed?
Agreed
We're invited to
Lucas Domeque's farm
Tell us who will love us
Tell us who will betray us
Your husband does
He sleeps with others, but loves me
Flee bitter answers in vain.
The cards don't lie. Ever
The other is a woman
of passion, dangerous
Look...
...if I flirt,...
...he gets into a jealous rage.
He's my man
You love the matador
Everywoman in Andalusia
loves Lucas
A message from the governor
Gentlemen,...
...your attention, please
I have news of the utmost interest
The King is pleased to issue
the following proclamation:...
...,On this day of
...my august wife, was delivered
Of a healthy princess
Heaven has blessed our union,
fulfilling the desire...
...of all my subjects for
a direct heir to the throne
HRH will tomorrow receive Holy...
...Baptism in the Royal Chapel,...
...and will be christened
Maria Isabel Luisa.,
Long live Isabel II!
What's your name?
Carmen
I'll kill my next bull
speaking your name
Careful, you'll lose her
Tell her husband
You can't fool me,
you're her husband
The woman who loves a Chinaman...
...has no pride...
...for the Chinaman smokes opium, ...
...and causes trouble
among the neighbours, ...
...and causes trouble
among the neighbours
Soldiers!
Take cover!
Come on! Take up positions!
Quick! Quick!
They're from Villadiego! Run for it!
-Come on, come on!
Damn and bugger it!
Bales first
Come on, quick!
Help me, please
Don't be an idiot!
Finish the scum off!
-Fire!
Leave him!
Leave him, I say!
Idiot!
You'll be killed
Help me
Help me!
Nobody'll recognize him
Let's go!
See if there's any food
Cards, wine and tits
to lighten the heart
While I play, I ruminate
Your friend betrayed us
Only tobacco here
That Tempranillo of yours is evil
He only works for himself
He only wants to get on
All he wants is for Big Nose
to pin a medal on his chest
He's an evil one
He's sold us down the river
Shut up
See to the mules
Carmen.
-What?
We can't live on air
Go and see that man
The Englishman?
MacGregor?
Perhaps he'll have something
Even if it's his blood to drink
You're a devil
Yes
Spades
Here
What?
No hug?
Bring something back,
but not with the sweat...
...of another man on you.
Especially an English mars
If you want...
...to cheat and rob,
a woman like Carmen is an asset
And careful with your kisses
You know what to do, but if you
sleep with him, don't enjoy it
Those tits are mine,
and nobody else's
Off you go and be careful
You don't like it,...
...but One-Eye does
Halt!
A message from Carmen
Come up
Look what's coming
instead of the Englishman
A bird with two mules
Dimwits! Taking me
for a la-di-da cow
Beat it!
Don't want to see you for dust
You,...
...hands on your head
Get his pistol
So...
...like her arse, eh?
I told you he had balls
Idiot!
You still have time
to bet, Dancaire
I know you've got clubs
You know how to bluff
But you've no chance with clubs
Spades.
-Fine
What did he fuck like, Carmen?
How long did he take to come?
How did he do it? Like a rabbit?
Or a bull?
Carmen
Come here
Let's see if...
...you bring me luck
This will,
if you keep it on your head
Come here
My Carmen has a lively pussy
Your play, One-Eye
Jack of Clubs
Things are changing.
Now it's spades
Deal me in
You? Playing cards?
What's come over you?
Maybe he's unlucky in love
Take that card from...
...under your arse
I don't need to cheat
I said show that card
Relax, One-Eye's done nothing
He's jealous. Don't tempt me
You want my whore,
she's yours for four ,reales,
Looking for trouble?
Come on, then
Calm down, you two.
Put your knives away
Stay out of this
Jose...
-It's not your fight. Stand aside
Where were you born?
From your mother's arse?
Bastard...
...suckled on putrid milk
I'll slash your face
Then rip open your guts
Scum
You're going straight to hell
Who are you wishing luck to?
Whose widow do you want to be?
Filthy Basque
Damned affairs!
Maybe she really is a jinx
Here, take it
Take it!
I won't wish you luck,
you can't handle it
We'll have to bury him
Isn't this better?
His time had come
Yours will, too
My time has come already
And yours
This smuggler's life is over
You'll be my wife, mine only,...
...for life
What do you want?
Children?
Me with a brat clinging to my tit?
It was then I bumped into you, sir
First near Montilla,
then in Cordoba
Carmen kept your watch
She also wanted your money
and that ring you wear
Said it was magic and
attached great importance...
...to owning it
Another man occupied her thoughts
Walk down the street
and forget tonight's events
My watch!
Best forgotten
Is he your lover?
Who?
The matador
Are you lovers?
I wish we were
I forbid you to see him
Careful, forbidden fruits
taste sweeter
Forgive me!
Please, Carmen, forgive me!
I will not
It bears your name, Carmen
Look, there's your Jose
Pierce me
Run me through
Moan with me
Let's shout in unison
Hey, where are you going?
Who is it? What do they want?
Get dressed
Who's this lout?
Go
What bad luck!
The woman I desire in my arms,...
...and her lover turns up
Bruno, Daniel, Paco, out!
Everybody out!
See...
...I've spared your life
I kill bulls
I don't break the hearts of men...
...who love the same woman
What are you waiting for?
Lucas is my lover!
Shoot, if you dare,...
...or go!
Swear you won't do it again
No
Swear you'll only ever be mine
No
Carmen,...
...I'm begging you
I'll forget the past
Have pity, Carmen
Let me be saved and save yourself...
...with me.
-l don't love you
I won't let you deceive me
with another man
Don't strangle me...
...or blow my head off
Bury me in the wood.
-l don't want to kill you
I just want you to come
with me and be my wife
No, no, no!
No!
I'm sick of threats
I'm sick of seeing you.
Go. Leave me alone
For the last time, you witch,...
...come with me
No, never
Never!
Carmen,...
...I beg you
I've killed for you,
and will again,...
...to keep you
I want nothing of you!
Nothing to do with you!
I hate myself for loving you
Dare to kill me
Kill me or let me go
And live with memories?
I'll follow you only to death,
I won't live with you
Kill Carmen
Kill her
Her body was still alive for me
Now...
...at last, Carmen belonged to me
At dawn, I gave myself up
I'm a man of letters,...
...a coiner of words and phrases
meant to bring solace...
...but which, often, only cause...
...more grief
Grief and love...
...are our eternal tutors
Would you, were it possible,...
...renounce...
...what you lived?
Would you return to the innocence
Of a humble army officer?
Could you erase Carmen
from your being?
No
Of course not
When they kill me...
...when they kill me...
...they'll be giving me life...
...to find you
They'll be giving me life...
...to find you
And there in death...
...and there in death...
...I will ever have, at myside, ...
...your passionate body
I will ever have, at myside, ...
...your passionate body
The Virgin doesn't love
me for I've sinned...
...and I'll burn in hell
with you at myside
But I don't care...
...but I don't care:...
...Eternity with you...
...will be short...
...will be short
I love your body...
...I love you body...
...which will always be alive...
...among the dead...
...which will always be alive...
...among the dead
When they kill me...
...when they kill me...
...they'll be giving me life...
...to find you...
...they'll be giving me life...
...to find you
