This classic Western film explores how profound betrayal and suffering can drive individuals to seek revenge, examining the psychological toll of injustice and the moral complexities of vengeance. The protagonist, who spent five years in a lead mine after being abandoned by his friend for two sacks of gold, demonstrates how personal trauma can transform a person's worldview and motivations. The narrative illustrates that while revenge may provide temporary satisfaction, it often leads to further tragedy and moral compromise, as seen when the protagonist's pursuit of justice threatens innocent lives. The film emphasizes that true justice requires understanding the full consequences of one's actions and that forgiveness, though difficult, may be necessary for personal redemption.

No, kid. You ignored my warning and went right ahead and killed a man, didn't you?
>> Nope.
We don't want his kind around here.

Now let's see the kind of stuff you're made of.
>> [snorts] [clears throat] >> That's a pretty good start.
>> I don't care what's happening to Romeo.
I got to get down and do something. Do something. Not this horse.
Enough shotgun down there to start a war.
That's it. Might help him to get rid of some of that. It's not enough.
What's this going to do about the bank?
Well, we just have to kiss that goodbye for today, anyway.
Now, what do you say, kid?
You better kill me.
Kill you?

Called Punta del Diablo.

>> We just wait.
Just wait.
>> Think you can make it that far, Rio?
Say, they really did mash that up.
Look like it might be all broke up.
Yeah, I guess you won't be doing no business with that for quite a spell.
Well, there's no need for you to hang around, Bob.
It ain't that, Rio.
It's just that I'm thinking of you, that's all.

Licking his back.

I think the honey's finished, Checo.
It's not going to get any better.
Let it go.

And I ain't getting no better.
>> How's the hand, Rio?
>> Almost coming.
>> No, Rio, I've been wondering if we ought to lay around here anymore.
>> What do you mean different, Bob?
>> I've been thinking a lot about all that kale waiting in the bank.
>> What about the different, Bob?
>> I'll tell you what we're going to do.
We're all going to lay for that sheriff outside his house come sunup.
Cut him down with scatter guns and then take that bank.
That's not my style, Bob.
Ain't it, huh?
>> Well, maybe you better change it cuz your style seems a touch slow to me.
I'm getting tired listening to that bull.
We rode 900 miles cuz you're supposed to be the big man with an iron.

>> Finished what?
>> I'm going to kill him.
>> You're going to kill him?
>> That's right.
>> But why?
Just because he whipped you?
>> Yeah, that and a couple of other things.
>> I know it was a terrible thing what he did.
And I was ashamed for him.
Those are not reasons for to kill a man.
>> Reasons?
I got reasons.
I got 1,708 of them.
That's how many days I spent down in that lead mine in the penance sonora.
That's how many nights I spent digging the maggots out of the sores in my ankles with the rats running all over me.
I lay there awake for 5 years at night listening to men screaming and praying while they was getting beat to death.

And you know what for?
Two sacks of gold.

Well, that's my son's tale.
And when it's over, I was hoping you'd come away with me.

That's just standing up, same as any man would do.
>> You think that to kill him make you a man?
>> Well, I don't know about that.
But I know that I thought about him every day for 5 years.
And that was only thing that kept me going.

>> Shoot, you ain't fixing to take Hickok on, buddy. Oh, Billy boy, nobody's that fast. Not even Earp or or Clay Allison.
>> I didn't say I was taking anybody on.
>> Yeah, but you're thinking it. I can see it in your eyes.
Listen to me, boy. Leave now, or you're going to be dead tomorrow.
All you damn gunslingers is alike.
>> Maybe.
>> It ain't just Hickok you better worry about. That >> Bass is going to be here, too, and he's going to be firing mad when he finds out that you gunned down four of his boys.
If you stay here tomorrow, you you you're just aching to be laid in the grave.
>> It's mighty kind of you to worry about me so, Tennessee.
Why the sudden change of heart?
>> All right.
Tell you what I want to do.
I'm going to make you a full partner again on one condition.
Now, you leave now while you can.
And go to them friends you was telling me about, them them them Indian friends.
>> Is it me or that mine you're worried about, Tennessee?
>> Confounded young'un. Stubborn as an army mule.
>> Tennessee?
Good night.
>> Good night.
>> All right.
>> Beautiful night.
>> Yeah.
>> Thanks for the drink, Kate.
See you in the morning, Fancy.
>> Good night, Bill.
>> Good night.
>> Well, Kate, looks like we're in business.
Hickok doesn't know it yet, but he's working for us.
>> Don't be too sure, Fancy.
Hickok's no fool.
>> Neither am I, Kate.
Mr. Hickok.
>> Yes?
>> You don't know me My name's Tennessee Thompson.
I'd like to talk to you about tomorrow if you got a few minutes.
>> Seems like a lot of people want to talk about tomorrow.
>> That boy going up against you tomorrow, he ain't Billy the Kid.
>> Well, why is he passing himself off as the Kid?
>> [music] >> Well, he never actually said that he was. The town just sort of took it for granted after he gunned down Ben Hayes and and Curt Aiken.
>> He gunned down Speck Greer and Hawk Russell, too. Those boys are pretty fast guns. Takes a good man to do that.
What is it you want, uh, Mr. Thompson?
>> I don't want Billy to to get killed.
>> Well, no one's forcing him into a showdown with me.
>> You know how young men are.
>> Yes, I know how they are. They all want to be a big man.
Look, Mr. Thompson, I've never seen Billy the Kid and I don't know if this boy is him or not, so I can't take a chance.
>> Mr. Hickok, I I just saw you talking there to Fancy Parkin and Poker Kate. Now, they both know that that he ain't Billy the Kid.
I understand and and I've heard that that you're a square shooter.
If you are, Mr. Hickok, you won't gun down that boy tomorrow.
>> Hubert, are you ever fast, Hubert?
>> Pretty soon, folks are going to be hearing about the Badlands Kid.
>> The Badlands Kid? Is that what you're going to call yourself, Hubert?
>> The Badlands Kid.
Yeah, the Badlands Kid. And I'm going to be the fastest gun in the Dakota Territory.
>> I bet you won't gun down Billy the Kid.
>> I bet he can't.
>> Yeah, I've been thinking about taking him on.
>> Really?
>> Hm, he ain't going to take on Billy the Kid.
>> Yeah, you listen to me, Ernie. I can outdraw you any day.
>> You come home and take those things off, take off your gun.
Hubert, your mommy wants you.
>> I'm going to get you, Warner.
>> What time is it, Fancy?
>> We'll be rich in 10 minutes.
I bet on Fancy.
Hickok looks pretty good.
>> I'll bet on Hickok.
>> You're on.

>> You don't scare me.

Let us unite in the brotherhood of good.
For the Lord so wrote, man must know man must walk alone.

>> I came to Deadwood to dig for gold.
>> John Slaughter says you came to gun me down.
>> I never saw John Slaughter in my life.
>> That's true. He's never seen John Slaughter.
>> Are you Billy the Kid?
>> No.
>> He is the Kid.
>> What's your name, son?
>> Billy May.
>> He's just trying to talk his way out of it.
>> Hickok's afraid of him.
>> You got a fast gun, Billy.
>> Billy.
>> Praise the Lord.
I asked to make these men friends and he heard me.
>> Preacher, maybe you got something there.
You know, someday I'm I'm going to read that good book of yours.
>> We can begin together.
There is a verse in Matthew that I think would be appropriate.
Here. Here.
Me? Read for yourself.
>> Preacher, I confess I I can't read.
>> Mr. Hickok, I don't know quite what to say to you.
>> Forget it, Billy.
Are you any relation to Boone May?

>> Just how do you know it was self-defense?
>> They were going to talk to him. He saw the whole thing. You tell >> That's a lie, kid.
>> Yeah, but he did do it in self-defense.
>> Hanging's too good for that bully.
>> You keep on saying I'm a good little varmint.
>> Don't you call me a varmint. Shooting a 15-year-old >> How are you, Sam?
How's he?
Guess you Town looks pretty riled.
Ought to be. Same fellow just gunned down a 15-year-old boy.

Billy boy, he lays there dying.
