:43:04
I'm a collaborator,
:43:07
who works with the director.
:43:10
But he's the only one responsible
:43:13
of the music, of special effects,
of the actors and everything.
:43:18
He's the one who pays,
the one who goes to jail.
:43:20
So it is normal that
Ruggero Deodato goes to jail!

CENSORSHIP
:43:32
When we began,
:43:34
we decided to shoot in English.
:43:39
Simply in order to find
four American actors,
:43:44
or at least foreigners,
:43:47
who could give credibility
to this type of movie.
:43:51
We left
:43:53
thinking that we would shoot
the movie in New York.
:43:56
But we kept in mind that
:43:58
to give an Italian nationality
to the movie,
:44:02
we needed at least
two Italian actors
:44:05
who would speak English.
:44:10
We left for New York
:44:12
and we went to the Actors Studio.
:44:15
I was lucky to find Italien actors:
:44:21
Luca Barbareschi,
who then became famous,
:44:26
and this girl,
Francesca Ciardi.
:44:29
We also chose two Americans.
:44:33
When we signed the contract,
:44:36
I told them: 'As this is
your first movie'
:44:41
'and that it should be successful
worldwide'
:44:47
'we ask you to sign a contract
in which you accept'
:44:52
'to drop out of circulation
for a whole year'
:44:56
'at least within cinema industry.
You mustn't accept'
