I Don't Know What Your Eyes Have Done to Me

00:00:29 One day, long before I knew I'd make a film about Ada Falcón

00:02:38 She only got out to pray to the Virgin.

00:04:43 At 19 she records "Pobre Chica", "Risas de Cabaret" and "Odisea"

00:06:16 She made herself up as a diva in the 30s.

00:09:29 I'm such a coward! I can't sing, I can't sing!

00:36:28 but she was nowhere to be seen. I couldn't see her.

00:38:37 The house is large...

00:40:17 to sit next to a man in public".

00:43:01 Therefore, it is also possible that she entered the Franciscan Order...

00:45:45 No, they didn't.

00:48:52 Whenever she finished singing she'd go to a church.

00:51:55 Such beautiful eyes!

00:56:15 And she mumbles, "Poor Canaro" and "Poor Ada", as if she were...
