1:07:04
But I haven't gained weight,
signora.
1:07:06
Haven't you? Any more
and you'll break the platform.
1:07:09
Giulietta, do you like Nadir?
1:07:11
What lengths I went to
to find an archangel...
1:07:13
and he was right here all along.
1:07:15
He's the doorman's son.
1:07:17
Oh, there's chocolate
in the refrigerator. Have some.
1:07:21
You haven't seen these new works,
have you?
1:07:23
Seeing them is not enough.
1:07:26
You have to touch them.
Go ahead.
1:07:29
I get a shock when I touch them,
as if they were alive.
1:07:32
Michelangelo told his Moses,
"Why don't you speak?"
1:07:35
I want to tell
these powerful figures...
1:07:38
"Make love to me!"
1:07:40
I mean it!
1:07:43
My art is deeply spiritual.
You don't think so, do you?
1:07:47
I want to restore
God's physicality.
1:07:51
I used to fear God.
1:07:52
He crushed me,
he terrified me.
1:07:55
Why? Because I imagined Him
theoretically, abstractly.
1:07:59
But He's really the most beautiful
body that ever was...
1:08:03
so that's how I try to portray Him.
1:08:05
A physical God, made of flesh...
1:08:06
a perfectly-formed hero...
1:08:08
whom I can desire
and even take as a lover.
1:08:23
I, on the other hand,
when I was little...
1:08:25
thought God hid
behind a big door...
1:08:29
that was always closed...
1:08:31
covered with dust...
1:08:34
in the little theater
in the convent.
1:08:43
The play that year
was about a martyred saint.
1:08:47
I was chosen for the part.
