Practiced a little bit and when they
arrived in Siena it was too dark. Also
Siena didn't seem the right backdrop.
"Tonight we drive on to Grosseto.
There are a lot cheaper hotels over there
and we will eat better." And drink ...
what turned out afterwards. Because they
all three had a severe hangover, they would
just ignore Rome. Fausto had been right.
In Latina and especially Sabaudia, nearly
the whole stock of films was used.
"One thing is sure ..." Henk thought.
"At least there is one very good scene,
namely that on the beach of Sabaudia.
Where Fausto picks up something rather
styrofoamish and says, 'Osso di Sepia'
And I (off camera): they sell that in
pet stores for canaries, don't they ...?
And then Fausto and without hesitation
(in Italian of course)": "Yes, but to
me it's the poetry of Eugenio Montale."
"And then he actually starts to recite.
the poem simply called Mediterraneo."
