Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-09

[00:00:00]Welcome to the Old West Theater.

[00:00:04]One badge, one prisoner, one road into a reckoning. A frontier where every secret has a price.

[00:01:56]I KNOCKED HIM DOWN. FINISH HIM.

[00:02:09]HELLO, REE.

[00:02:13]HORN. I uh >> let it drop.

[00:02:18]>> Where's the money, Reys?

[00:02:21]>> Where's the money, Reys?

[00:02:24]>> Inside.

[00:02:50]porn. I didn't mean it. Now >> open your mouth again, Ree. I'll blow it off your face.

[00:02:59]You make one move to give me reason.

[00:03:03]I'll kill you cold.

[00:03:16]>> Come to Serita.

[00:03:18]>> Yenhorn.

[00:03:20]>> Where's Ross?

[00:03:23]>> Over there.

[00:03:25]When will he come?

[00:03:28]When the sun is high.

[00:03:31]Gracias.

[00:03:52]Gracias.

[00:04:05]You will sing to the spirits. Serita, >> it is my way.

[00:04:14]>> Say to them that he was young, had not yet felt the halter.

[00:04:20]Tell them I am sad it had to be this way. I will sing that.

[00:04:26]>> Tell Ross I'm sorry and tell him I asked him not to come after me.

[00:04:31]>> I will tell him horn but he will come >> and I will kill him too.

[00:04:39]Adiosto unloading Rex. Good man.

[00:05:12]Well, honey, how'd you like your first stage coach ride?

[00:05:15]>> It was fun.

[00:05:18]>> Thanks, Dan.

[00:05:22]>> Easy out.

[00:05:23]>> Thank you.

[00:05:28]>> You swoop.

[00:05:29]>> That's right.

[00:05:30]>> Hi, Mayor Dollar.

[00:05:32]>> Mayor, this is my wife, Sarah.

[00:05:34]>> Mayor, this is our daughter, Sandy.

[00:05:37]Sandy, this is the mayor.

[00:05:39]>> Hello there.

[00:05:40]>> How do you do?

[00:05:42]>> Well, should we go?

[00:05:43]>> Not just yet.

[00:05:44]>> Mr. Acres is expecting us at the bank.

[00:05:46]Let's not keep him waiting.

[00:05:48]>> I said not just yet.

[00:05:52]>> How soon?

[00:05:52]>> As soon as I get my wife and daughter settle at the hotel. Come on, dear.

[00:05:59]>> Hey, Dan. Get my stuff over at the hotel, will you?

[00:06:02]>> Yes, sir. Mr. Swope.

[00:06:05]>> Hello, Ted.

[00:06:09]Leah, Leah Parker, >> aren't you going to help me down?

[00:06:14]>> Oh, sure. Sure.

[00:06:19]Leah, you look wonderful. Simply wonderful.

[00:06:22]>> Not like I used to, but then neither do you.

[00:06:26]>> Lots of things have changed, Leah. We've all settled down, raised families. Me, I'm the mayor. Bob Baker's the town banker. Everything's all changed.

[00:06:38]>> Are you afraid I'd change it all back?

[00:06:40]>> No. I uh Well, u Well, everything's all changed.

[00:06:46]>> Not me.

[00:06:48]>> Um I have a an important meeting. I uh >> I understand.

[00:07:02]>> Sorry the mayor was that way, ma'am. No way to treat a lady without reason.

[00:07:08]>> He has a reason.

[00:07:10]>> My name is Dan Kurthers.

[00:07:12]>> Leah Parka.

[00:07:13]>> Yes, I know. I heard his honor say your name. You have a sister, Julie. Lives with her folks at the station west of here.

[00:07:20]>> Yes.

[00:07:21]>> Well, I'll be dog. Julie talks about you all the time. Julie and me? Well, we're fairly good friends.

[00:07:28]>> You seem to be.

[00:07:30]>> Well, I I drive the stage through there.

[00:07:32]You know that sister yours, she's just fine. Pretty. Oh, your folks, they're fine, too. Uh oh. Well, we'll be moving out in about an hour.

[00:07:44]>> Thank you.

[00:07:44]>> Uh maybe we can talk later.

[00:07:48]>> I'd like that.

[00:08:04]Can I help you, miss?

[00:08:06]>> Oh, I I was looking for Horn.

[00:08:08]>> Oh, he's not in town.

[00:08:10]>> Will he be back today?

[00:08:11]>> I don't have any idea. Besides, whatever the sheriff can do, I can do just as well. Maybe even better.

[00:08:18]>> I'm Leah Parker and I'm here looking >> Oh, you're Henry Parker's daughter?

[00:08:22]>> Yes.

[00:08:24]>> Well, >> when he comes back, tell him I was here.

[00:08:27]>> Oh, Miss Parker. Mr. Acres would like to see you.

[00:08:29]>> I don't want to see him.

[00:08:30]>> I'm afraid you don't have any choice.

[00:08:40]Little drink for old time's sake. Leah, >> do you mind getting to the point?

[00:08:45]>> The point?

[00:08:48]Leah, we have no intention of your causing us any trouble. We're eliminating that possibility by eliminating you, >> Leah.

[00:08:58]It's just that we're afraid that you might u >> You're afraid of me. For what? I'm pleased to see you wreak with chief politics. I'm happy to watch you worry about each other.

[00:09:10]I thoroughly enjoy knowing you are wallowing in filth because that's exactly where you belong.

[00:09:21]Ah, Mr. Swope, come in. Come in, Seth.

[00:09:24]Miss Parker will be on the stage when it leaves. Don't worry, Mayor. She'll be on it. Come along, Miss Parker.

[00:09:35]>> Mr. Swope. This is Bob Acres, our town banker.

[00:09:39]Dollar tells me you're one of the best.

[00:09:41]He sure is. He's done special jobs in Dodge the Daily and Witchah before he went on his own. Since then, he's killed Jake Timbers, Les Harkkins, and Ray Lllo. Mr. Swopee is also known for his gunfights with >> Shut up.

[00:09:56]>> Uh, Mr. Swopee, the Sawyers killed two of our citizens and robbed our bank of $50,000.

[00:10:04]Now, unless that money is returned, every business in this town will close within a week. We want you to make sure that money gets back. That's why we telegraph for you. Now, >> who's the sheriff in this town? This is his job.

[00:10:18]>> His name is Horn. He lived with the Sawyers for many years. He rode out after them, but whether or not he'll return with them is problematical.

[00:10:27]We're all concerned about his personal feelings, but we're more concerned about our money.

[00:10:34]What's your offer?

[00:10:36]>> $5,000 for the return of the money. We guarantee that.

[00:10:41]Each of the Sawyers has $5,000 on his head. That's up to you.

[00:10:48]There's a lot you haven't said, Acres.

[00:10:50]You've got plenty of men available. Why doesn't the posi handle this?

[00:10:55]>> We'd rather they didn't, frankly. We have insisted that our citizens remain peaceful. Also, there's another condition to our agreement.

[00:11:03]>> One concerning Horn.

[00:11:05]>> When our town was tough, Horn was the kind of a man we had to have. Now he's too tough for our town.

[00:11:12]>> Maybe just too tough for you. He's become a thorn in our political side.

[00:11:17]Now that our town is peaceful, we feel that some of his rigid ways should bend a bit. Simply a matter of progress.

[00:11:24]Yours, if you want to call it that.

[00:11:27]However, Horn has got to go, and we want you to make sure that he does.

[00:11:44]Let's rest him.

[00:12:23]Warren, uh, I'm sorry about all this.

[00:12:29]You know, uh, Paul will come after me.

[00:12:32]That'll mean shooting between you and him. You don't want that. Neither do I.

[00:12:38]I'll never forget when when P first brought you home. Half your head was taken away. Seemed like Comanche sure worked you over.

[00:12:48]Remember when we was trapping Beaver and I fell in?

[00:12:54]You hadn't pulled me out. I was gone.

[00:12:57]You pulled me out of a lot of things since then.

[00:13:04]You got the money. Will you give me a chance this time? Let me ride out.

[00:13:10]>> What about it, Horn? Can you let me ride?

[00:13:14]>> Get back over there. Sit down.

[00:13:42]Step here, dear.

[00:13:45]>> I'll take that, Mr. Swa. Thank you. Mhm.

[00:13:50]>> I'll be back before a week is out, dear.

[00:13:53]>> Just in time for Sandy's birthday.

[00:13:55]>> Daddy, will you bring me a gift this time?

[00:14:00]Darling, I'll bring you the greatest gift of all.

[00:14:04]>> Now, don't forget.

[00:14:06]>> I won't forget, dear.

[00:14:18]>> A week.

[00:14:19]>> A week. Be careful, Sam.

[00:14:28]Goodbye, Sandy.

[00:14:29]>> Goodbye, Daddy.

[00:14:31]>> You be a good girl now.

[00:14:35]Sarah, help.

[00:14:49]>> I traded the run when I heard you were going. Anything you need, just ask for it.

[00:14:53]>> Thank you.

[00:14:55]Sorry you couldn't stay around a little longer, Miss Parker. We might have got to know each other better.

[00:15:00]>> I'm far too expensive.

[00:15:12]>> Bye, Daddy. Bye.

[00:15:15]Bye, Daddy.

[00:15:28]Mr. Swope, >> I'm sorry your daughter had to see a woman leave town with a deputy as an escort.

[00:15:37]>> Oh, she didn't see you, Miss Parker. You forgot she's blind.

[00:16:10]vultures.

[00:16:25]Kyas, huh? I guess they hear you was pulling out, too. Well, your place is much better than the tepee.

[00:16:32]>> We ain't pulling out, Joe with us.

[00:16:34]>> Huh?

[00:16:36]>> What? The last stage goes tomorrow.

[00:16:38]Henry says you got to leave.

[00:16:39]>> We ain't leaving.

[00:16:41]And I want a dollar for this flower.

[00:16:43]>> A dollar? Well, Henry was giving it to me.

[00:16:47]>> Flower ain't his to give. It's mine. And I say a dollar.

[00:16:54]Yeah.

[00:16:56]>> Thanks for the flower, M. Parker.

[00:17:00]Get on.

[00:17:14]Joe Withers may be having it hard, but so are we.

[00:17:18]You had no reason to give him that flower for nothing.

[00:17:23]You could have GOT THREE OR FOUR DOLLARS FOR IT.

[00:17:30]Made him give me a dollar anyway.

[00:17:38]Only need $60, boy. Then the closing won't matter.

[00:17:44]Pay off the stage line.

[00:17:47]Keep the place.

[00:17:51]You don't think Leo bring the money, do you? Minute I wrote her we needed money.

[00:17:56]She wrote back she was coming home, didn't she? No other reason for her to come. She's got it good. Teaching that school, ain't she?

[00:18:08]Nothing here for her.

[00:18:10]is there.

[00:18:13]She's coming to help like a good daughter should.

[00:18:24]Henry, there's $10 missing.

[00:18:28]Where is it? Henry.

[00:18:34]>> Julie took the money.

[00:18:38]Julie, what for?

[00:18:44]>> Said she was leaving on the last stage tomorrow.

[00:18:50]>> She said nothing to me.

[00:18:53]Ain't no reason for her to talk to you.

[00:18:58]Settle this now.

[00:19:15]Your paw said you took $10. I want it.

[00:19:18]>> No, mama. The last stage is tomorrow and I'm leaving on it.

[00:19:22]>> Not on my money. You ain't give it to me.

[00:19:25]>> Please, Mama. I have to have it. The stage line won't let me ride for nothing. Not if you argued with them the way you did.

[00:19:32]>> I'll speak my mind to the stage line or anybody else. Young lady, I should have said it long ago when your paw was borrowing money on the land.

[00:19:38]>> P had NO CHOICE.

[00:19:39]>> WHAT GOOD IS IT DONE? NONE. WE'RE NO BETTER OFF, are we? Now we got to move out of payoff.

[00:19:45]I want the $10, Julie.

[00:19:57]It's not that I want to deny you.

[00:20:01]It's just that money comes hard, but with your part turning out good for nothing.

[00:20:08]$10 means a lot to me.

[00:20:13]What does my leaving mean, mama?

[00:20:41]right there.

[00:20:56]Warren, I hope you hurt and bleed.

[00:20:59]I'm going to hope you die.

[00:21:01]>> I won't.

[00:21:07]>> HERE I AM, P. OVER THERE, P. KEEP COMING. TAKE THEM, P.

[00:21:17]>> I'm trying to spook you, Horn, but you won't spook.

[00:21:22]Why don't you let me go, Horn?

[00:21:26]I told Toby to stay away from that bank.

[00:21:29]Told him it was your town. He was just set on going. I had to go with him. It was Toby killed those men, not me.

[00:21:37]Tell them that. They'll believe you.

[00:21:39]Tell them Toby confessed before he died.

[00:21:44]>> HORN, DO YOU HEAR ME? SHOOT ME. COME ON.

[00:21:47]KILL ME.

[00:21:50]You won't. You know why? Cuz I'm Ross Sawyer's boy. That's why.

[00:21:56]And you and him got a a respect for each other. Well, I'm just going to stay here and wait. Wait till you bleed to death.

[00:22:06]Then I'm going to take the $50,000 and walk away.

[00:22:19]Horn, it's getting cold. least he could do is spare me a blanket.

[00:22:59]Go [ __ ] Don't shoot him. Don't shoot him.

[00:24:00]I should say I carry this for medicinal purposes, but I don't.

[00:24:07]Wherever we're going, Mr. Swope. Heaven, hell, all the stops in between.

[00:24:17]You're entitled, Mr. Swope.

[00:24:19]>> No thanks.

[00:24:20]>> Don't tell me you don't drink.

[00:24:22]>> Well, not when I'm working.

[00:24:24]>> And now you're working.

[00:24:26]>> Uh-huh.

[00:24:28]>> Do you mind if I ask? Purely as a matter of conversation, you understand. Just who is the uh subject of your work this time?

[00:24:36]>> You wouldn't know them. I might.

[00:24:39]>> Well, it's Ross, Toby, and Reese Sawyer.

[00:24:42]$5,000 each.

[00:24:45]>> Dead or alive?

[00:24:47]>> Dead.

[00:24:50]>> $15,000 is a lot of money, Mr. Swope. Is it the hunt or the money you want?

[00:24:57]>> Neither one. It's for my little girl.

[00:25:18]Where my heart?

[00:25:43]I will go. Serita >> Horn, he knows you are coming.

[00:25:47]>> That is good.

[00:25:50]>> He will kill you, Ross.

[00:25:53]>> He might.

[00:25:55]>> I will put pollen in the wind for my men of 30 years.

[00:26:00]They've been good years.

[00:26:03]>> They've been good years.

[00:26:06]>> Adios.

[00:26:08]>> Adios.

[00:27:08]born. Ross will see that.

[00:27:14]>> If he rides as hard as I think he will, he might just wind up walking like you and me. walk.

[00:27:25]You're not going to walk, horn. You're bleeding to death. You're going to die.

[00:27:43]You wouldn't do that to me.

[00:27:49]Please don't, Horn. Not me. You're not going to shoot me. Please don't shoot, Horn.

[00:27:56]No, Horn. Don't. Please don't. Don't do that. Horn.

[00:28:07]Now. Let's see who bleeds to death first.

[00:28:13]Get up.

[00:28:15]Get up.

[00:28:44]I got to Papa, >> will the Indians harm us?

[00:29:15]No, they're just waiting for us to move out so they can move in.

[00:29:27]>> What's happened to us?

[00:29:30]>> Me, Julie.

[00:29:32]I've made a failure for all of us.

[00:29:35]You and your mom and me.

[00:29:38]>> Oh, no. Papa, there must be something we can do. We've already learned by experience.

[00:29:46]>> Well, we just can't sit.

[00:29:49]>> We can't move neither.

[00:29:52]>> I don't know what to do.

[00:29:55]>> Guess maybe we'll decide that tomorrow.

[00:29:59]>> Well, can't we just stay here?

[00:30:02]>> Stage stops running. It's starvation to be here. Maybe we even end up fighting them.

[00:30:09]>> Mama's got some money. Can't we buy some food?

[00:30:13]That's up to your mom. You ask her about that.

[00:30:16]>> But you're my papa.

[00:30:20]>> I know, Julie.

[00:30:23]I'm right. Sorry about that.

[00:30:34]>> Please, God, bring Leah home. And what if his horn has already taken the sawyers?

[00:30:41]Well, there's only one place he can take them to. That's your dad's place.

[00:30:46]>> And you'll take them from him?

[00:30:47]>> I'm going to try.

[00:30:49]>> What about the $50,000?

[00:30:51]>> I'll take that, too, if I can.

[00:31:04]Help.

[00:31:07]Help.

[00:31:19]Thank you. Yes, ma'am.

[00:31:26]>> Leah, is it really you?

[00:31:28]>> It's really me, Julie.

[00:31:31]>> Oh, Julie, this is Mr. Swope.

[00:31:33]>> Pleased to meet you, miss.

[00:31:34]>> How do you do, Mr. Swope? Leah, you've got to tell me all about everything.

[00:31:38]I'll tell you all about it, honey.

[00:32:01]Le, it's been a while.

[00:32:05]>> Years, mama. Maybe too long.

[00:32:09]>> Oh, Leah.

[00:32:11]I told you Poppy you'd come. I said you can always depend on Leah.

[00:32:15]>> Oh, mama. This is Mr. Swopee.

[00:32:18]>> Ma'am, >> how do you do, Mr. Swopee? Come in. Come in. Supper's almost ready.

[00:32:30]>> Well, tomorrow's the last trip.

[00:32:32]>> I'm going to miss you, Dan.

[00:32:34]I'm going to miss you, too.

[00:32:40]>> Dan, when you come back tomorrow, let me go with you.

[00:32:45]>> Let you go.

[00:32:46]>> I don't have any money, but I'm leaving if I have to walk.

[00:32:50]>> Oh, please try to understand. I want to see people and places.

[00:32:55]Well, something besides this dirty old ranch and stage coaches and passengers and >> stage coach drivers. I didn't mean that, Dan.

[00:33:04]>> Look, Julie, I care for you. You know that. But my intentions ain't to throw you on a stage coach and run away.

[00:33:11]>> Dan, I can't stay here. I've got to get away. I'll go crazy.

[00:33:18]I want to see something. I want to get a a taste of life before it's all gone.

[00:33:23]>> You said, "Let me go with you." That's something I've always wanted, too. But all you want is to go with who or where.

[00:33:32]Don't matter. Well, on those terms, it won't be me.

[00:33:40]>> Yes, sir. Soon as I got your letter, Leah, saying he was coming, I was even more sure. Of course, you didn't have to come yourself. I guess maybe he was worried.

[00:33:49]>> I didn't get any letter, mama.

[00:33:53]>> You didn't?

[00:33:55]Well, it it don't really matter. you're here.

[00:35:41]>> All I have is $25 with me, Mrs. Parker.

[00:36:35]>> Stay the way, Mrs. F.

[00:36:37]>> Please do something to my shoulder.

[00:36:40]Please.

[00:36:49]You have to help me. Horn.

[00:36:51]>> All right, Spagger.

[00:36:53]>> You can take care of him now if you like.

[00:37:00]>> He's lost a lot of blood.

[00:37:10]I may not be welcome, but I'm here. I'm going to be here till the dawn stage.

[00:37:17]I hope there won't be any trouble.

[00:37:25]Horn.

[00:37:30]Horn.

[00:37:31]What happened?

[00:37:34]Sit down. I'll get something to fix that.

[00:37:46]Ma, I want to talk to Swopee.

[00:37:52]>> All right. Horn.

[00:38:02]Swamp, what are you here for?

[00:38:08]>> Him.

[00:38:10]Maybe you.

[00:38:13]>> Maybe this. Huh?

[00:38:15]>> That's right.

[00:38:17]>> Sam, you won't take it from me.

[00:38:23]Maybe I won't have to Well, That's the end of the call. I hope it lasts till morning.

[00:39:18]>> Be no stage till 7 tomorrow morning.

[00:39:21]You'll lighten them torches just like always.

[00:39:23]>> Well, sure, Mara.

[00:39:26]You think I ought to?

[00:39:28]>> It don't matter.

[00:39:31]What does matter?

[00:39:33]That Marshall's got a lot of money on him. You think we All right. ALL RIGHT.

[00:39:38]ALL RIGHT.

[00:39:39]>> YOU'LL never change, will you?

[00:39:42]No, but you never changed either, Myra.

[00:39:47]Funny, a just one of us had changed, then we wouldn't have to fight no more about which one it was.

[00:40:13]When are you men going to stop shooting each other?

[00:40:17]>> When are you women going to stop being women?

[00:40:21]>> That hurt, Horn. So will this.

[00:40:26]>> You're not very gentle.

[00:40:29]>> Neither are you. Here, >> Reys. Mom is getting you something to eat.

[00:40:35]Oh, Leah. This is Reese Sawyer. Reys, this is my sister, Leah. She's been teaching school in Santa Fe.

[00:40:42]>> How do you do, Mr. Sawyer?

[00:40:43]>> Didn't I meet you once in Amarillo?

[00:40:46]>> I taught school there, too.

[00:40:49]>> You sure did.

[00:40:52]>> What are you two talking about?

[00:40:53]>> About school?

[00:41:04]$50,000 could do a lot for you, Julie.

[00:41:07]You'd get your new dress, some real makeup. You wouldn't have to mix together flower and berry stain like I done all my life.

[00:41:20]Leah, you're a school teacher. You've been to the big places. Tell me, just add it all up and tell me, what could I get with $50,000?

[00:41:34]Trouble, mama. Trouble.

[00:41:51]>> I I wasn't going to bother the money, Mr. Horn.

[00:41:55]>> I had no thought that you would, Julie.

[00:41:59]>> Thank you.

[00:42:02]We don't hear words like that around here often.

[00:42:24]Leah, Leah, help me.

[00:42:32]I need something. I need somebody.

[00:42:44]What is life like away from here?

[00:42:47]Honey, every human can answer that differently.

[00:42:52]>> I can't answer it. I can't answer it at all.

[00:42:58]What was it to you? To me, life was a candy store and on every corner was something sweet. I had a taste for everything and I bought it all.

[00:43:12]But like everything else, life has a price and I paid it with me. Bits and pieces of my life that I couldn't buy back. Like candy. Too much life can make you sick.

[00:43:26]But a person has to try before they know.

[00:43:29]>> The trouble is once you know, you have to try it again.

[00:43:33]Too many times you'll find a medicine that will ease the pain, but it won't really cure you.

[00:43:39]So it's more candy, more life. It never ends. But isn't too much life better than none at all?

[00:43:46]>> No.

[00:43:48]I don't understand.

[00:43:52]You will, honey.

[00:43:55]You will.

[00:44:02]>> I'm leaving on the morning stage.

[00:44:05]>> For where?

[00:44:06]>> Anywhere.

[00:44:08]>> What are you going to do for money?

[00:44:10]>> Loan it to me, Leah. You must have some money. $10. As soon as I get to a town and get a job, I'll send it right back.

[00:44:17]>> I don't have it. Honey, >> you just don't want me to go. You're just like mama. I don't have it, Julie.

[00:44:25]>> Yes, you do. You've got to have some money. You're a school teacher.

[00:44:27]>> No.

[00:44:27]>> I never thought I'd see the day my own sister wouldn't trust me for $10.

[00:44:32]>> I'm going. If I don't get the money from you, then I'll get it from somebody else.

[00:45:18]You have any more coffee, Mrs. Parker?

[00:45:20]Help yourself.

[00:45:21]>> Oh, I imagine it's cold. If you wait a minute, I'll warm it up for you. Thank you.

[00:45:34]SW.

[00:45:50]>> I hear you.

[00:45:52]>> There's a $50,000 in that money bag.

[00:45:56]>> I know it.

[00:46:00]Half of it for gun.

[00:46:02]>> Not a chance.

[00:46:03]>> All of it. Swope. Give me your gun and the money is yours.

[00:46:07]>> Listen, soy, there's a $5,000 reward for you. I need it.

[00:46:12]I've got a choice of either clean money or dirty money.

[00:46:16]Frankly, I don't give a hang which it is.

[00:46:20]The dirty way I'll have to kill Horn in there. The clean way I'll have to kill you.

[00:46:26]If it comes to that, you don't have to kill me. SW go easy.

[00:46:38]That reward is for you dead, Sawyer.

[00:46:41]>> Oh. Uh, Schwob, you can have the front bedroom. It's the first door on the left.

[00:46:47]>> Thanks, >> Mr. Swope. I usually get $3 for the room, but you can have it for nothing.

[00:46:52]And I'll take the $25 for the horse.

[00:46:58]>> $25.

[00:47:00]Thank you, Mrs. Henry, help me get the room ready.

[00:47:13]You know, the town fathers offered me $5,000 to see that that money gets back.

[00:47:19]Seems they don't trust you, Horn.

[00:47:20]>> I don't trust them.

[00:47:23]>> I know. Always happens that way.

[00:47:26]We're only necessary when they need us.

[00:47:29]happened to me in Dodge City. Same thing in Sidelia.

[00:47:33]>> And now me, huh?

[00:47:36]>> Yeah.

[00:47:39]Those kind of people just aren't worth fighting for.

[00:47:43]You know, if I was you, I'd keep right on going.

[00:47:46]>> I figured to do just that as soon as I get him and that money back.

[00:47:56]Listen, Horn. I've got a little girl.

[00:48:00]She's blind now. I need money for her bad.

[00:48:06]But the only way I can get it is to take it from you or take him.

[00:48:10]>> Sam.

[00:48:13]Sam, you know I won't deal that way.

[00:48:15]>> But the boy's worth money. So's his father, Ross.

[00:48:18]>> You'd have to kill me.

[00:48:24]I'll worry about that in the morning, horn.

[00:48:27]Maybe by then you'll already be dead.

[00:49:16]I've brought you some coffee.

[00:49:19]>> Thanks, Julie.

[00:49:26]>> Reys, can you lend me $10?

[00:49:29]I want to leave on the morning stage, but mom and Leah, they won't give me any money. Papa doesn't have it.

[00:49:37]>> I'll get a job as soon as I get to town.

[00:49:39]I promise I'll pay you right back.

[00:49:41]I never forget a favor, Ree.

[00:49:44]Never. In my pants pocket.

[00:49:56]>> There's nothing but 50s.

[00:49:58]>> Go ahead.

[00:50:05]>> Julie, it's getting late. I'll be back later.

[00:50:21]What were you talking about?

[00:50:23]>> Leah, you're a looking good.

[00:50:25]>> And you're taking your usual good look.

[00:50:28]>> Nothing wrong in looking. Leah, tell me, how come Julie didn't borrow money from you?

[00:50:36]She only wanted $10, but I gave her 50.

[00:50:38]The loan from a friend, of course.

[00:50:40]>> A friend.

[00:50:41]>> But the main thing is I got another 300 in his pocket here. Are you broke clear?

[00:50:47]>> There was a time when $300 would buy a lot of things. A man, a woman, even a gun.

[00:50:56]>> Which is it you want to buy, Ree?

[00:51:13]Reese offered me $300 for a gun.

[00:51:16]>> A lot of money. Did you take it?

[00:51:20]>> I'm sorry you had to ask me, Horn.

[00:51:49]I'm sorry, Leah.

[00:51:51]>> Well, what? After all, it's like you said one time, want an answer? Ask a question. No need to apologize.

[00:52:00]Horn, I still love you.

[00:52:04]I still hate your guts, too.

[00:52:10]>> Nothing really changes. Not you, not me.

[00:52:15]Why don't we be drastic? Horn, explode, shout, and slap the hell out of each other. Why don't we be bold and try something new? Something like maybe the truth.

[00:52:25]>> Is that what you want?

[00:52:26]>> Yes, that's what I want. I'd rather lose than hang on horn. To a woman, hanging on is losing.

[00:52:34]Am I being brazen?

[00:52:36]If so, I don't care. There was a time years ago when I was too timid to be open in my talk. You were the experience man, the been there know all man. I loved you for what you seem to be, and I hated you for what you were. I couldn't understand that then. Now I've been there, too. So now I want to know.

[00:53:00]Leah, I guess if I love any woman, it's you.

[00:53:04]>> But the answer is no.

[00:53:26]Good clock.

[00:53:30]Always on time. I check it with the passengers that got watches. Stage still at 7:00.

[00:53:38]>> Yep. You going to stay there all night?

[00:53:41]>> All night.

[00:53:42]>> Well, I'll uh go out and fetch some wood for your fire.

[00:53:54]Leah, spare me a blanket.

[00:54:07]Get me a gun. A gun or your folks will know what school you've been teaching.

[00:54:14]that I swear.

[00:54:56]Good night, Mr. Parker.

[00:55:01]Good night.

[00:55:20]Leave the rest of the lamps on.

[00:55:28]Horn.

[00:55:32]Horn.

[00:55:35]HORN. I CAN'T SLEEP LIKE THIS.

[00:56:16]A day ends, a day begins.

[00:56:19]>> It'll bring nothing new.

[00:56:21]>> This one will horn. This one will bring Ross. Ross will come.

[00:57:01]Reese said he gave you $50.

[00:57:04]Yes.

[00:57:06]>> Julie, come here.

[00:57:18]I want to tell you something. Something that I wish someone had told me one night years ago. When just like you, I was packing a bag to catch a stage. When you're young, it's hard to have the patience to wait. It's easier to run, even if you don't know where or even why.

[00:57:35]>> Leah, you don't have >> Yes, I do.

[00:57:38]When you're half starved and alone and away from anybody you know, you start to make excuses. You swap a principle for something else because that's all you've got to trade.

[00:57:53]I've never been a school teacher, Julie.

[00:57:56]I've been a highpriced woman.

[00:58:06]But take away the reason that I was nothing. But >> don't say it.

[00:58:12]>> I don't believe it.

[00:58:15]>> Don't go, Julie. I can't stay. I can't stand to see Papa like this.

[00:58:22]No courage, just doing nothing.

[00:58:27]>> One thing I know, honey, something about men. Park can argue with a man, but not with a woman he loves. That he can't stand because he doesn't want to hurt her.

[00:58:38]Sooner or later, he'll have to.

[01:00:02]Hello.

[01:00:25]Hey, Hy.

[01:02:14]I'd gotten pocket. Come, pick it up.

[01:02:25]2 hours from now, I'll be leaving on the 7:00 stage. So, that bag of money, let me make it clear that anybody anybody who gets in my way will be dead.

[01:02:37]Parker, that gun didn't get there of its own accord.

[01:02:42]You better keep your women in line if you can.

[01:02:48]>> I should have bashed your head in when I had the chance.

[01:02:51]>> But you didn't, Horn. No man ever talked to me like that before.

[01:02:59]Sure. I lost my fight against this land day after day, month after month, with the heat burning my courage out of me.

[01:03:09]And then the wind freezing what little there was left.

[01:03:14]BUT I GOT PRIDE. HORN.

[01:03:16]>> NO, PARKER. You don't even have that left. Freeze or burn. Do whatever you want. Cross me once more. You won't have to do anything but die.

[01:03:31]>> Did you have to do that?

[01:03:33]>> Yes.

[01:03:43]All right, Swoop.

[01:03:46]>> What's it going to be?

[01:03:47]>> I have to have that $5,000. Horn, >> Sam, when we get back into town, I could scrape up two, maybe $3,000.

[01:03:56]>> Still wouldn't be enough. It has to be fired.

[01:03:59]>> All right. What will it be?

[01:04:04]>> I'll ride out after breakfast. I'm obliged. Sam, >> you owe me nothing. Horn, if I thought I could take you, I would. I've carried this gun 15, maybe 20 years. I'm careful.

[01:04:17]I look at a man, I figure the yards. If I can take him, I will. If I can't, well, I just ride ahead.

[01:04:25]Good luck to you, Horn.

[01:04:48]Help him.

[01:05:08]Howdy.

[01:05:10]>> You're a long place from anywhere, aren't you?

[01:05:12]>> Well, that horse of mine stepped in the chuck hole and broke his leg. How's chances of you giving me a ride back to the state station?

[01:05:19]>> Well, I can't go that far out of my way.

[01:05:22]>> You come to my place and I'll sell your horse.

[01:05:25]>> Better than walking. I'll ride in the back.

[01:05:43]Move.

[01:05:58]Hey. Hey.

[01:06:14]6:00.

[01:06:17]We got less than 1 hour to live. Ross will be here before the stage.

[01:06:37]town's that way.

[01:06:40]>> I'm not going that way.

[01:06:43]I'm going up Canyon to meet Ross.

[01:06:47]He's worth $5,000 to me. Horn, I have to have it. SW I can't let you do that.

[01:06:56]>> You've got Reese who got that bad arm.

[01:06:59]You can't go with me.

[01:07:02]And I don't think you would shoot me in the back.

[01:07:37]Horn didn't mean it that way, Papa.

[01:07:41]>> Oh, he meant it.

[01:07:43]And he was right.

[01:07:46]I ain't got no fight left in me. No pride neither.

[01:07:50]You see, I I just sat here month after month and let the world whip me. Well, you can't do that. You got to fight every minute.

[01:08:01]Otherwise, there comes a day when you know there was a fight, but you lost it before you even knew you was in it.

[01:08:12]Julie, where did you get the money for your ticket?

[01:08:18]I'm leaving, Papa, and it doesn't make any difference.

[01:08:21]>> Where did you get the money?

[01:08:24]Now you girls in your mall, you always argue me your way, but not no more.

[01:08:29]Answer me. Where did you get it?

[01:08:32]>> I borrowed it from Reese Sawyer.

[01:08:34]>> You borrowed money from that outlaw.

[01:08:38]And what was the interest on the loan going to be? A gun, maybe?

[01:08:42]>> No, Papa. I thought about it. I thought about all that money, but I didn't give him the gun.

[01:08:51]>> Leah, >> I thought about it, too, Papa. But somebody beat me to it.

[01:08:57]>> Reese said he'd tell Mama and you about the school I was teaching.

[01:09:04]>> What about school? Because your reading was done on the labels of whiskey bottles and your writing was your signature on every hotel ledger in the west and your arithmetic was done by the night.

[01:09:19]Oh, I ain't stupid.

[01:09:23]I've known for a long time.

[01:09:31]Oh, baby, it's all right.

[01:09:35]more my fault than yours.

[01:09:39]And you, young lady, you put that stuff away. You ain't going no place. You're staying home.

[01:09:47]Come on.

[01:09:49]We got food for 3 4 days. Just a little more money and we'll have enough to stay here for another year.

[01:09:59]We're going to make it some way.

[01:10:02]Now you girls just get dressed and we'll all go to breakfast and we'll say the blessing like we done when you was babies.

[01:10:11]Then maybe we can all get together again.

[01:10:16]Yeah. Together.

[01:10:19]>> Papa, are you going to ask mama?

[01:10:22]>> I ain't asking. I'm telling.

[01:10:38]What are you doing, Mara?

[01:10:42]>> I'm packing.

[01:10:44]>> What for?

[01:10:47]>> What for?

[01:10:49]Cuz we're leaving. Cuz of you. We're leaving.

[01:10:55]>> You gave him the gun, didn't you? Mara.

[01:10:59]>> Mara, you gave him the gun.

[01:11:02]>> Yes, I gave him the gun. If that's what you've come in to ask me, leave me alone and busy.

[01:11:08]>> Mara, what's happened to you? For the last few years, you've been moaning and groaning and picking and picking cuz nothing ever seemed to be all right.

[01:11:17]>> WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS? YOU TELL ME THAT. DOESN'T DO NOTHING BUT DRIVING ME CRAZY WITH YOUR TALK AND YOU'RE DOING NOTHING IN NOTHING BUT A NOW YOU LISTEN TO ME. I just told Julie she ain't going no place. Neither are we. We're staying. Come whatever. We're staying. Now you just get over there and put them pants away again. Like I told you.

[01:11:51]Lara, I can't make you stay.

[01:11:56]But I hope you'll agree because that's the way it's got to be.

[01:12:32]Hello there.

[01:12:35]HELLO THERE.

[01:12:37]Hey Horn, >> last night you said you love me. You also said no.

[01:13:06]>> Uh-huh.

[01:13:07]>> All right. I want to know why you said no.

[01:13:09]>> Reasons. reasons like soil virtue, maybe violated honor. Who the hell do you think you are? Oh, right. You're tough and you're strong, but don't tell me you're naive.

[01:13:23]This is a hard country. A place where a woman bears a child alone, wipes him clean, slaps life into him, and then wonders if it would have been better to let him die. There is no virtue to violate, no honor to bend, no high and mighty rules to live by. There is only life and death, and it's what you want to make it that gives it the name.

[01:13:47]I won't throw away my last hope for you without crying, begging, or even crawling if I have to.

[01:13:55]You say reasons, name them.

[01:13:58]Rosoy has been a father to me. when he gets here and he'll get here.

[01:14:07]I don't want to kill him, Leah.

[01:14:11]He doesn't want to kill me, but Liam, leave me alone till this is over.

[01:15:03]Ross didn't come.

[01:15:06]He let me down.

[01:15:32]Ross, he let me down.

[01:15:38]He let me down. Or he let me down.

[01:15:45]Poor heart. I didn't mean to shoot you.

[01:15:47]>> He came.

[01:15:51]I told you he'd come. I told you. Start dying, boy. Start dying. Get him.

[01:16:38]I knew you'd come. P. You didn't let me down. Pull it. Grace.

[01:16:45]>> Ross.

[01:16:45]>> I left a fell on the trail a few minutes back. I don't know who he was and I don't care. Tried to stop me.

[01:16:50]>> Swopee.

[01:16:51]>> I didn't want a thing like this to happen.

[01:16:55]I come from a boy.

[01:16:58]>> Don't p. He'll kill you.

[01:17:00]>> Cho between horn and me.

[01:17:25]Damn your horn.

[01:17:27]Damn your horn.

[01:17:30]Damn your horn.

[01:18:06]I'm not going.

[01:18:09]Oh, well, he won't let me go.

[01:18:12]I guess it's best I >> Well, if you ain't going, I guess I'll have to come out here.

[01:18:22]Tomorrow is soon enough.

[01:18:30]See you tomorrow.

[01:18:36]I'll be back soon as I get things squared away for Swopee's wife and little girl.

[01:18:41]I'll bring a buck board. You get packed.

[01:18:46]>> Don't you want to know where we're going?

[01:18:47]>> I don't care.

[01:18:51]>> We're late.

[01:18:56]>> Let's go. Half I'm going over and tell them Indians to get out of Yeah.

[01:19:51]This is not a shooter muppet. It's a quiet, weatherbeaten farewell to the frontier, where every character carries a wound. A somber, character-rich western for those who love their dust with a side of melancholy.
