-Bonsoir. -Bonsoir.
How are you doing?
-Much better. Thank you. -Good to hear.
Congratulations, de la Torre. She is a very lucky woman.
Not as lucky as I am.
-Monsignor. -Good evening.
A pleasure seeing you.
Ah. [chuckles]
Your father would be so proud.
-You've fulfilled his wish. -I would like to think so.
Don Felipe, always such a pleasure seeing you.
You'll have to come by the house soon.
I have some new cigars I think you'll enjoy.
You don't say.
Excuse me.
Ignacio.
Carmen, splendid as always.
I'm glad you came, Ignacio.
Amada is waiting for you.
[woman] So discrete.
It was his mother's ring, you know.
Poor woman.
If she knew where it ended up.
Well, Luz, it's on your sister's finger.
My half-sister.
Don't worry, you'll all find good husbands, too, I'm sure.
Hmm. Yes, of course.
[woman] I hope mine's a foreigner.
[all chuckle]
Un Romain, perhaps.
[laughs]
Lorenza et Romain.
[man] Obviously.
[indistinct chatter]
Will you excuse me?
[women laughing]
Ladies.
I hope you have no objection to my stealing Amada.
And not a minute too soon, I'm sure.
To think in my hometown all I wanted was a little sister.
You look beautiful.
Félix!
Ignacio.
I knew something was missing from this party.
Mr. President, I apologize for being late.
Félix.
Effusive, as always.
Congratulations, Ignacio.
I hear you've been appointed to Congress.
What a nice wedding present.
No doubt Mr. President is a very… generous man.
Only with those who deserve it.
Thank you for your trust, Mr. President.
What is given can also be taken away.
That said, I expect you will uphold your end of the deal, Ignacio.
To make my daughter happy.
I'll do my utmost to ensure that this is the case.
[indistinct moaning]
[sighing deeply]
-[rhythmic thudding] -[moaning continues]
[man] But Villada is one of the president's men.
And now, so am I.
[man] Does Díaz know about this?
I wanted to consult with you first.
[man] If he finds out, he'll consider it treason.
[Ignacio] Do you…
or do you not want to replace Villada?
Absolutely.
But why replace him with you?
If the president were to change the official candidate…
who else would you choose?
I may have forgotten, but I don't think I've seen you before.
I just started here.
Evaristo Rivas.
-Ignacio de la Torre. -Pleased to meet you.
Likewise.
Do you usually stay here so late?
It's a bad habit.
It is one I share.
Hmm.
May your union be fertile.
May you both see the children of your children,
and after a long and happy journey on this earth,
may you be among the blessed
who are greeted into the Holy Kingdom of Heaven
by Jesus Christ, our Lord.
[all] Amen.
-[bells tolling] -[choral music playing]
[Amada] It's almost a miracle everything turned out so well.
So many people were dancing when we left.
Even Luz congratulated me.
The Limantours left early though.
[bottle clinks]
I hope it wasn't because of the food.
[sighs]
Don't you think we've had enough to drink?
It is never enough.
[moaning softly]
[exhales]
-[grunts] -[gasps]
[grunts]
[panting]
[grunts sharply]
[man] This is Dolores, your personal maid.
Socorro and Francisca are the other two maids.
Doña Gertrudis, the cook.
Marco is the valet.
Doroteo,
Francisco, Roberto, Aníbal…
and Lucas.
Isidro is cook's assistant.
As is Juan.
And Mateo is the stable boy.
[horse blusters outside]
I was about to leave, and…
I thought you might fancy a drink.
I was going to work for my father,
but, uh, that wasn't going to end well.
So I came here instead.
Is your whole family still in San Luis?
Let's just say the distance does us good.
When my father was alive…
I would always volunteer to visit the estates.
The further, the better.
Yes, the further, the better.
What does Mrs. Rivas say?
There isn't one.
Waiting for the right one?
And waste my time?
[moans]
[knocking on door]
[panting]
[door opens]
-[Ignacio] Yes? -[man] Congressman.
I'm about to leave. Is there anything else?
-[Ignacio] No, thank you. You may go. -Very well. If you'll excuse me.
-[Ignacio] Of course. -[door closes]
[piano playing]
[Ignacio] That was nice.
You need to…
loosen the wrists.
And simply let your fingers fall on the keys with their own weight.
[playing piano]
I may not know how to play the piano,
but I bet you don't know another woman who can clean, load, and fire a rifle.
No, fortunately.
[continues playing]
[piano stops]
What are you doing up so late?
I was waiting for you.
I don't like you losing sleep on my account.
It's the only way for me to see you.
Amada, it's not decent for you to be like this in the parlor.
Everyone's retired for the night.
There is still work I haven't quite finished yet.
Can't it wait till tomorrow?
It's for your father.
[door opens]
Senator Téllez.
Please, after you.
Very kind of you. Thank you.
A box of El Buen Tono, please.
Good luck in the session tomorrow.
[indistinct chatter]
It tastes a little sweeter than a peach.
Try it and tell me what you think.
Well, the nation's son-in-law honors us with his presence.
[Ignacio] Please, show some respect.
[man] Ignacio.
[Ignacio] How do you do?
[Gabriel] Mr. de la Torre!
Tell your wife that we ladies simply loved her dress.
[all laughing]
[man] It was divine.
-Who made it? -All right.
-Leave it. I'll get you the name later. -[man] No, no, no, don't give her ideas.
[patron laughs] It's really difficult.
-[Ignacio] Good evening. -[chatter continues]
-Good evening. -Good evening.
[man] I'll see you again later.
[Ignacio sighs]
So, how is the married life?
Some duties are more difficult than others.
I met someone who could fit in well here.
Let me guess.
You've invited him.
Ignacio.
Why do we have rules?
For the others.
Nacho.
If you ever do this again…
[both] I'll have to kick you out.
[snorts]
[both laughing]
That's the truth.
-To your health. -[man] Look who it is!
Ta-da! Come over here.
Oh, good.
There is no way. Nobody would.
That way the queen is still protected.
-Let's say I didn't move the pawn. -Right.
-See what happens? -Yes.
[all singing in Spanish]
All right, gentlemen. Who is going to…
I'm an old fox!
[hisses]
[clock ticking]
[spoon clatters]
[breathing deeply]
-[breathing intensifies] -[bells tolling]
[panting]
[Ignacio] Thank you, doctor.
The doctor says you should rest.
She won't forgive me for not inviting her to the wedding.
Carmelita and my father wouldn't let me.
And now everybody knows that my mother is an Indian.
How long has it been since you've seen her?
Six years.
[sighs]
Ignacio.
You and Papa are all I have.
Get some rest.
-[driver] Whoa! -[horse neighs]
[carriage door opens]
[introspective music playing]
You need to uncover your chest.
Excuse me?
You may still leave if you wish.
[music continues]
[all murmuring]
[man] Evaristo Rivas.
Have you come of your own free will?
[Evaristo] Yes.
And do you know what unites us in brotherhood?
Socratic love.
[all laughing]
And do you, Evaristo Rivas,
confess to being eligible to join our society?
I confess.
I'm a pansy.
-[all laugh] -[applause]
Do you swear to never disclose, even under pressure,
what takes place here?
I swear.
[man] Evaristo,
welcome to our club, which is now…
-The Club of the 42! -[all cheering]
[Ignacio] Gentlemen…
let us raise our glasses in honor of our new member.
[all] Cheers!
[Evaristo] I've never seen so many queers under one roof.
I knew you would appreciate.
-Did you go through this as well? -Mmm-hmm.
Who introduced you?
Don Felipe.
He was a close friend of my parents.
He invited me when I turned 18.
Maximilian passed on the club to him before he was executed.
[man] Can somebody pass the wine, please?
Well, my glass is looking a little empty.
[indistinct chatter]
[Ignacio] You will love it.
That is Aristeo.
He's the only founding member left, but unfortunately, he rarely comes now.
[all] Cheers!
-Cheers! -To your health.
[Ignacio] Those are two senators.
And over there, that's Agustin.
-The newest member until you arrived. -[chatter continues]
[Ignacio] Gabriel introduced him and they both like to wear women's clothing.
Carlos is a board member of the Bank of London.
A very interesting man, but a bit complicated at times.
Gustavo is a bit of an introvert, but he's very nice.
And there's Rafael.
You already met him.
Welcome.
Thank you.
[Bizet's "Carmen Suite No. 2" playing]
[moaning]
Ah, yes, that feels good.
-[laughter] -[sighs]
[Gabriel humming]
[moaning]
[music continues]
[moaning]
[all moaning]
[man exclaiming]
[moaning continues]
[gasps]
-[birds chirping] -[train horn blaring in distance]
-[screams] -[objects clattering]
[horse neighs]
-[Amada] Where were you? -Dinner went long.
-With whom? -With friends.
I was very worried.
I'm sorry.
I didn't have time to let you know.
I sent a message to my father's house.
They're searching for you.
Why did you do that?
You didn't return.
I assumed something terrible had happened to you.
Next time this happens, don't worry so much about me.
We wouldn't want you to fall ill again.
What's going on here?
These gentlemen are asking for you.
If you'll excuse us, sir.
We were told something unfortunate had happened to you.
-As you can see, I'm fine. -Our apologies.
[man] You'll have to ask him. His office is over there.
Beautiful apology.
Accepted?
Wouldn't it look better with a bracelet?
A pair of earrings, perhaps?
If something truly unfortunate were ever to occur…
at least we know we can count on my father.
[chuckles softly] That's a relief.
[panting]
[rhythmic panting]
[panting]
[Porfirio] Did you think I wouldn't find out?
Pardon me?
[Porfirio] You're conspiring against me.
Mr. President, I would never dare.
In that case, how would you call going behind my back
to promote an agenda I strongly oppose?
[Ignacio] It's no secret the ranchers are displeased with Villada.
They believe I could defend their interests better
since I share those interests.
[Porfirio] And they suppose I'll support you.
[Ignacio] Are they mistaken?
[Porfirio] You don't even meet the criteria to be governor.
You need to grow up.
You've never shied away from amending the law
to benefit the people, Mr. President.
How's my daughter?
Happy.
As always.
This conversation is over until you reach the legal age.
-Mr. President-- -Ignacio!
[man] De la Torre. Your turn.
My wife thinks it would be a good idea to make him a little suit.
But I don't think it's a suitable gift for a young boy.
Not very exciting.
How old is he now?
Ten.
[Ignacio] A bicycle.
-[Gustavo] Aren't they dangerous? -Yes, terrible.
Riding on cobblestones you get thrown around like a rag doll.
[Ignacio] I think there's a new model with inflatable tires.
[Gustavo] Ha! What will they invent next?
Well, if that's the case, I'll definitely get him a bicycle.
And the suit, of course. I wouldn't want to upset my wife, would I?
[Carlos chuckles] How modern of you!
I don't mean the tires, but for being so concerned about Carolina.
[Gabriel] When you're part of a family, you have to compromise.
That's something you'll never understand.
Do you live here?
Since they drove me out of my house.
[laughter]
[Evaristo] One has to go out. Meet new people.
-[man] I think you're in the right place. -[Evaristo] Uh-huh.
Do you want to have some fun?
Gentlemen, my most profound apologies, but I must leave you.
One more. A rematch.
[indistinct chatter]
[laughter]
[man] It was an excellent performance. You would've liked--
And you?
You don't even say hello?
Congressman, how are you?
I thought we had an understanding.
And I thought you had more important things to do.
[man] Ignacio.
-Stay a little longer. -No, it's late.
He likes to ride his mare early in the morning.
Come with me.
[gentle music playing]
[indistinct]
Eva.
-Eva. -Mmm.
[chuckles]
[furniture clattering]
[clattering continues]
[Ignacio] Put the chair in front of the mirror
and the candle closer to the bed.
Ignacio.
What are you doing?
I don't want you staying up because of me.
Please, Ignacio, don't change rooms.
We haven't even been married a year yet. What's wrong?
The doctor said that you need to sleep well.
Did I upset you?
-Did I do something wrong? -No.
Nothing.
This arrangement is more suitable.
For your health.
-[Bizet's "Carmen Suite No. 2" playing] -[exclaims]
They agreed to leave us alone in the box for a moment.
[laughs] When he gave me the ring, the audience applauded.
I would love a story like that!
There are plenty of stories like that.
The problem is always what comes after.
And so tell us, Amada,
what comes after?
I really can't complain.
The other day, Ignacio offered me a beautiful diamond necklace.
I really couldn't refuse.
Has he had more dinners that last until the next day?
[Carmen] Luz!
Don't be impudent.
No, Luz.
No, no more long dinners.
Well, my dear, I say you should enjoy it while it lasts.
These things tend to disappear when you least expect it.
One day you're his sun,
and the next he's getting warmed up in someone else's glow.
[all laughing]
Isn't that right, Carmelita?
-Elena, would you like a glass of water? -No.
Anyone else would like one?
-Yes, please. -No, thank you.
-[loud chomping] -[music continues]
[laughter]
Isn't this a perfectly lovely afternoon?
[Ignacio] Do you like the gift I sent you?
[Porfirio] I didn't think you would get so many signatures.
[Ignacio] Now we're just missing the most important.
Alvaro, Manuel.
I want you to prepare a detailed report
on the political viability of this young man here.
[Manuel] Of course, Mr. President.
[Ignacio] Thank you very much.
It's not a "yes," Ignacio.
It's a "we'll see."
If you'll excuse me.
[Alvaro] What position?
Governor of the State of Mexico.
-[organ music playing] -[man grunting]
[laughter]
Coward, you have dishonored the woman.
Ah! On your guard!
[both] Ha! Ha! Ha!
[all laughing]
[groans] Such a tragic pene… tration.
-[groans] -[men high-pitched] Oh, no!
He had gonorrhea!
[audience applauding] Bravo!
[cheering]
[laughs]
Whoo!
If I may take this opportunity, since we're all here,
to announce that our annual ball will be held on 17th of November.
-[cheering] -[whistling]
[men singing in Spanish] ♪ In the immensity ♪
♪ Of the waves, floating I saw you ♪
♪ And going to save you And going to look for you ♪
♪ The whole thumb I stuck in ♪
[laughing]
[in English] With the big toe!
[in Spanish] ♪ Your sweet vision… ♪
[Ignacio in English] It's all or nothing. There's no other way to go about it.
Don't be so sure. You have many friends.
-It's not impossible. That's right. -Of course not.
-Ladies, I think I'll be turning in now. -[man] Don't be such a party pooper!
-No, no, no. -[Gabriel] Why, Nachito?
Because I have to work on my campaign for governor, that's why.
-[Gustavo] Governor of what? -What do you think? Of Sodom!
-Of the State of Mexico. -Even worse.
I really think you could be president, Nachito.
Evaristo could be First Lady!
Indeed! I like that.
Just teasing. Great idea.
Gentlemen, can you imagine?
Our next orgy could take place at the Chapultepec Castle.
-Yes! I'll wrap myself in the flag. -Ignacio de la Torre for governor!
-[Gabriel] Long live Nacho! -[woman] Shut up already!
[laughing quiets]
-Shh. -Oopsie.
Shh.
Mr. de la Torre.
Mr. de la Torre!
Don't forget your girlfriends when you set up your cabinet.
-[laughing] -[Gabriel] Well said.
-Careful, don't encourage them. -Shh.
What is going on, Félix?
People have been talking, Amada.
I WOKE UP SHAKING TO THE SOUND OF YOUR KISSES ON MY BACK. EVA.
[Evaristo] I'm new at the office. They're treating me very well.
[Amada] My husband treats you very well.
Actually, I work with various senators, and…
I invited Eva to spend the evening with us.
I see you have been going through my letters.
You leave me no choice.
-I should come back another time. -Sit down.
[bells tolling in distance]
My husband is exhausted from working so much.
But I'm sure you know that better than I.
I was just telling Amada
about my work as your lawyer.
Hmm.
-Eva and I were talking about spending-- -Mr. Rivas, Amada.
Speak properly. You are not in your village anymore.
Do you mind me calling you Eva?
No.
Eva and I were talking about spending time in the country on--
Mr. Rivas won't be able to.
He's very busy with the contracts.
-I thought it was a new bill. -That too.
Why did you come?
Because the invitation was in your name.
Mr. and Mrs. Ignacio de la Torre.
Please don't ever come here again.
[drawer locking]
Give it to me.
I will not ask again.
Give it to me.
[grunting]
[Amada groans]
I'm not stupid enough to keep them there.
[breathing heavily]
[sighs]
[gunshot]
Amada!
Amada, what are you doing up there?
Amada!
Leave me alone!
[gunshot]
You'll slip and fall.
Since when do you care what happens to me?
Get back in the house.
[Amada] You get back in the house!
Amada!
[cocks gun]
Go away!
[gunshot]
[cocks gun]
[church bells ringing]
[door opens]
[footsteps approaching]
[Amada] Ignacio, you have to give me a child.
If you don't, I will reveal what I know.
[Ignacio] What will they say about you?
We are married, Amada.
The least you can do is keep up appearances.
For me.
[Ignacio] Doesn't everyone believe that we are…
deeply in love?
[piano playing]
[singing in German]
-[vocalizing] -[laughter]
-[singing continues] -[laughter continues]
[Felipe] He probably won't come tonight either.
Evaristo, it isn't wise to behave like this.
As if you were husband and wife.
It will not end well.
[singing and piano continues]
[singing continues]
[all laughing]
[vocalizing]
[singing continues]
-[singing continues] -[laughter]
COME BACK, I MISS YOU EVA
-[indistinct chatter] -[horses neighing]
I'm afraid the electorate doesn't have the best opinion of you.
I'm sure you can find a more favorable sample.
With all due respect, congressman,
your way of life has people talking.
How do I know the results are not biased?
Because I'm in charge.
The last three reelections, I'm the one who advised the president.
I strongly advise you not to run.
Truth is, you don't stand a chance of winning.
And the general doesn't like to lose.
Doña Carmen. Mr. President.
[Carmen] Ignacio.
I'm glad you could find the time.
-Did Alvaro and Manuel deliver the report? -Porfirio… not now.
Not yet.
There will be plenty of time over dinner to discuss these things.
-[footsteps] -[staircase creaking]
-[Carmen] …represented an extreme duality. -[Ignacio] Yes, but more restrained.
[Carmen] Yes, unlike today.
-Nowadays it seems… -[man] Things have changed.
[Carmen] …social encounters are much more casual.
[Ignacio] Yes.
-[Carmen] More enjoyable. Huh. -[Ignacio] Less formal.
Your home is truly lovely.
[Ignacio] Thank you, Doña Carmen. It's a pleasure to have you with us.
Red snapper with sauce ravigote, Papa.
Just the way you like it.
[Porfirio] Look at you.
Soon you'll be teaching Luz how to host a dinner party.
I find it a little dry.
[Félix] It's delicious.
Later.
[Porfirio] All you need now is to be a mother.
-[Carmen] Porfirio. -[man clears throat]
What?
I can't say that?
I want grandchildren.
How long have you been married now?
-Ignacio. -We're working on it.
[Porfirio] That's what I wanted to hear.
[Carmen] Do you know where the word ravigote comes from?
-[Luz] No. -[Carmen] From the French.
[Luz chuckles]
[Carmen] It means invigorate.
This sauce invigorates the diners' appetite,
from the time it is made to the time it is eaten.
[Luz chuckles]
[door opens]
How are you today?
What are you doing here?
Is a wife not allowed to visit her husband?
[Ignacio sighs]
What are you doing?
I will cure you.
May God free you from your sin.
Touch me again and I'll have you locked up in an asylum.
I'm not afraid of you, I was born on a battlefield.
[Ignacio] Get out.
Not until you give me a child.
Let go of me!
Ignacio.
Ignacio, give me a child.
Ignacio.
-[panting] -[lock rattling]
Amada, open up.
[Amada] It's for you own good.
Amada, open the door.
-[thud] -Amada! Open up.
Open up!
Amada!
[panting]
[vase shatters]
[Ignacio panting]
[Porfirio] What is it, my daughter?
I'm worried about Ignacio, Papa.
[Porfirio] Whatever you need, Amada.
[indistinct chatter]
[church bells ringing]
What's wrong?
I'm being followed.
By whom?
I don't know, but I know who sent them.
Were you followed?
No, I…
I don't think so.
[moans softly]
[both panting]
[panting continues]
Let's get out of here.
Where to?
Let's leave the country.
That's pure lunacy.
I know.
[sighs deeply]
We were starting to be quite worried about you, Nachito.
What is this?
Your new bodyguards.
I don't need them.
That's not your decision to make.
Very well.
-Have them watch over Amada. -[Félix] No.
They're for you.
You don't have the authority.
You're mistaken, Ignacio.
I have all the authority.
And if you don't like it,
I suggest you speak to the president.
Nachito.
[door opens]
Lead them outside, Teo. They can't be in here.
[door closes]
[goat bleats]
[piano playing]
[goat bleats]
[Ignacio] Thank you, Teo.
-Who is it from? -Amada, this is unbearable.
Who is it from?
The tailor.
[sighs]
[goat bleats]
[continues playing piano]
There's a lot of pressure, sir.
I understand there's pressure, but what do they want?
They want a meeting with you.
No, I can't do that. Tell them…
[man] Congressman?
Tell them I've postponed running until the next election cycle.
There you go.
You look gorgeous.
-And this one here? -There you go.
[indistinct chatter]
Let me tie it up.
Ah, yes.
You'll look beautiful in this dress.
[somber music playing]
Midnight raffle! Forty-two tickets, only one winner.
Anyone feeling lucky?
-[man] Wonderful! Whose idea was this? -Midnight raffle!
Wait your turn.
-Hey, hey. -[man 1] May I have a ticket, please?
[man 2] I need one, too.
You look…
beautiful.
Forty-two tickets, only one winner.
May I?
Do you want one?
No.
Oh, you got two.
Get your ticket for the midnight raffle.
The train leaves at 7:00.
Shall we?
-Good evening. -Good evening.
Thank you.
Cheers.
[wistful music playing]
[wistful music continues]
[dramatic music playing]
[dramatic music continues]
[all clamoring]
[soldiers] That's it. That's it.
-Circle them! -That's it.
Stay back.
Come on. You there, move. Get in there.
That's right.
[somber music playing]
What is it?
A raid was conducted in La Paz Street during a party.
At first, everything seemed perfectly normal,
but then I realized it was attended only by men.
[Porfirio] Get to the point, Félix.
Those who seemed to be women…
were men wearing dresses.
We arrested 42 men, sir.
I only count 41.
[sobbing]
[Gabriel] My son will find out.
My son will find out.
And I'm going to die.
[sighs shakily]
My son will find out and I'm going to die.
-[footsteps approaching] -[lock rattles]
Get this faggot out of here.
[crowd clamoring]
[crowd yelling] Shame on you! Faggots!
-You should be ashamed of yourselves. -Homos!
Dirty perverts!
Go to hell you fucking swines!
Abhorrent!
You're disgusting!
-You should be ashamed of yourselves. -You sicken me.
Awful!
-Faggots! -Dirty perverts!
Shame on you all!
Rot in hell, you despicable perverts.
To prison with them!
[Félix] Those present here
are an example of the putrefaction that must be eradicated from our society.
May the chastisement of these sick people serve as an example for all those
who seek to go against the principles of morality.
Let it be clear.
Filthy, evil weed will be uprooted without any hesitation.
For the good of our society and the safety of our families.
[crowd shouting faintly] You faggots! Shame on you!
You should be ashamed of yourselves!
[crowd clamoring]
-[punches landing] -[men groaning]
-[glass shatters] -[screaming]
-[punches continue] -[men groaning]
[clamoring yelling and clamoring]
-[punches landing] -[men screaming]
[sighs]
I asked my father to leave you in prison.
Did you tell your father about Evaristo?
[Amada] Why?
God sees all.
Amada, I beg you.
If you help me get Evaristo out of jail, I promise--
He was sent to Yucatán.
At least there he'll be able to atone for his sins.
[man] Congressman.
The president wants to know if he can count on your vote during the session.
[Ignacio] Tell him he can.
[footsteps departing]
It is the premiere of La Bohème at the Teatro Principal.
Shall we go?
If you want.
Or would you rather go to Tacubaya for the weekend?
Ignacio.
Sorry, what?
Would you rather go to the opera or the summer house?

I don't care.
Evaristo is dead.
I don't have any more information, I just know he died.
So, La Bohème or Tacubaya?
