Valeria Golino credited as playing...
Giulietta Guicciardi
- Ludwig van Beethoven: [sitting secluded in a darkened corner, Miss Guicciardi does not notice him at first] Hello.
- Giulietta Guicciardi: [startled, she doesn't realize who she is speaking to] Oh... I didn't see you. I have to go back.
- [she turns to leave]
- Ludwig van Beethoven: [he gets up] Oh... you are leaving me to go back to that ass who plays like a kitchen maid, all clipped and staccato.
- Giulietta Guicciardi: This music is beautiful.
- Ludwig van Beethoven: You must be Giulia Guicciardi. I hear there's quite a contest for your charms.
- Giulietta Guicciardi: Sir you're rude and offensive. I'm leaving.
- [she begins to walk away]
- Ludwig van Beethoven: [calling after her] Do you play the piano?
- Giulietta Guicciardi: [she stops] What?
- Ludwig van Beethoven: I intend to be your teacher. I will call for you tomorrow at 10:00.
- Giulietta Guicciardi: [laughs as she walks away] You will be barred from the house.
