00:06:25 Well, you said you wanted
00:06:30 There's his house down there,

00:06:54 There's a lovely one there.
00:07:35 Gentlemen, l promised myself
00:07:40 and look here,
00:07:44 Surely you're going to Capitol City
00:07:48 Not this trip. lt's purely personal.
00:07:51 Purely personal? That isn't good
00:07:55 Why did you come to Shinbone?
00:07:58 No. No, there's no mystery.
00:08:05 - Funeral?
00:08:09 - No, sir. l...

00:09:10 Folks from all over everywhere
00:09:32 The county's gonna bury him.
00:09:59 Pompey?
00:10:15 - Miss Hallie.
00:10:33 Maybe you'd like to...
00:10:44 Where are his boots?
00:10:48 They was an awful nice pair of boots,
00:10:52 Put his boots on, Clute,
00:10:57 He didn't carry no handgun, Rance.
00:11:01 Yeah, sure.
00:11:31 Sir, l don't wish to intrude,
00:11:37 l'm the editor of a newspaper
00:11:42 l've got a responsibility to know
00:11:44 why you came all the way down here
00:11:48 You can't say his name was
00:11:52 Who was Tom Doniphon?
00:11:54 He was a friend, Mr Scott,
00:12:00 Scott, let's go.
00:12:02 l'm sorry. That's not enough.
00:12:18 Yes, l guess maybe you have.
00:12:40 This story not only concerns me.
00:12:43 Old Pompey in there, Link...
00:12:47 But l suppose l'm the only one
00:12:50 l read of the old days in the paper's
00:12:55 You're a young man! A young man.
00:12:58 You only know it
00:13:01 A lot different then. A lot different
00:13:06 First time l came to Shinbone,
00:13:10 A lot like that one right there.
00:13:18 Could be the same one.
00:13:26 ''Overland''...?
00:13:29 Well, l declare.
00:13:33 Well, l declare.
00:13:35 l was just a youngster,

00:14:05 Stand and deliver!
00:14:23 Shotgun, shuck your shells.
00:14:31 Throw down the cash box. Now!

00:15:15 - l'll take that pin, too.
00:15:20 - Please!
00:15:23 Take your hands off!
00:15:27 This kind, dude.

00:16:36 A book?
00:16:39 Law?
00:17:01 Lawyer, huh?
00:17:06 l'll teach you law... Western law.
00:17:16 Let's get out of here.
00:18:06 Hallie! Wake up, gal!
00:18:15 Tom Doniphon! 5:30am.
00:18:19 We've got a man down here ambushed.
00:18:23 Like to die
00:18:36 - lt's the man from the hold up.
00:18:41 How did you know?
00:18:43 Stagecoach stopped by last night
00:18:45 Link Appleyard?
00:18:47 Don't stand there gossiping.
00:18:51 Think you can make it, pilgrim?
00:19:10 Put him on the couch.
00:19:25 Tom, he's hurt real bad.
00:19:53 Thanks, Pompey.
00:19:58 Poor man. Beaten, whipped and kicked,
00:20:05 - How's that again?
00:20:10 Well, Pompey, looks like
00:20:20 Hallie, we...
00:20:22 - Get some bandage.
00:20:24 l'll take care of him.
00:20:33 Pilgrim, you'll need
00:20:37 Pompey, go find Doc Willoughby.
00:20:49 Nora, sorry to bust in on you
00:20:54 - Such a beating.
00:20:58 By golly,
00:21:01 You want coffee?
00:21:10 Take her easy there, pilgrim.
00:21:15 You all right?
00:21:38 Here we are. Drink this.
00:21:54 ls that coffee?
00:21:56 Yah, coffee, and aquavit.
00:22:00 No, l don't care for that.
00:22:03 Here, you must drink.
00:22:08 lt ain't mannerly out west
00:22:22 - All right if l smoke, ain't it?
00:22:45 - Good. Now you will feel stronger.
00:22:51 Took my watch. My money's gone,
00:22:56 Don't fret about that, pilgrim.
00:22:58 You can eat here
00:23:02 - My credit's still good, Nora?
00:23:08 - Lie down. Please lie down.
00:23:15 Not now.
00:23:21 Got something to do.
00:23:25 What did you say his name was?
00:23:28 The man with the silver-knobbed whip?
00:23:32 l said Liberty Valance,
00:23:37 you better start packing a handgun.
00:23:40 A gun? l don't want a gun.
00:23:43 l don't want a gun.
00:23:47 l want to put him in jail.
00:23:52 l know those law books mean a lot
00:23:56 Out here,
00:24:01 But do you know
00:24:06 You're saying just exactly
00:24:13 What kind of community
00:24:16 You all seem to know Liberty Valance.
00:24:19 He's a no-good, gun-packing,
00:24:23 but the only advice you give me
00:24:26 Well, l'm a lawyer!
00:24:31 And the law is the only...
00:24:37 A little law and order around
00:24:41 All right, Hallie.
00:24:48 Arrest this man! Arrest him!
00:24:53 Well.
00:24:57 - He's hurt bad.
00:25:03 Ain't being up all night on account
00:25:08 - Who's this?
00:25:10 - l knew l shouldn't come over.
00:25:15 Tom, if he's got a formal complaint
00:25:20 He just wants you
00:25:25 Liberty Valance? Do you think
00:25:30 Hallie thinks he's right.
00:25:34 Somebody better listen to somebody
00:25:39 Mamma, Liberty Valance
00:25:42 lf he behaves himself in this town,
00:25:47 Jurisdiction.
00:25:49 What he said.
00:25:52 You all know
00:25:55 What Liberty does out on the
00:25:59 Ain't that right, Mr Lawyer?
00:26:04 Technically, l suppose
00:26:08 - You mean l'm right?
00:26:12 l knew it! l knew we'd be friends
00:26:17 You folks all know that,
00:26:22 and the lock's broke,
00:26:25 l should have known nothing would
00:26:28 Now get out,
00:26:31 - We got work to do!
00:26:35 l could sure use a snack
00:26:41 and maybe a side order of bacon,
00:26:45 On the cuff. Sit down.
00:26:50 Get out of the way! Sit down!
00:26:58 You know, you look mighty pretty
00:27:03 Like l say, you can eat here
00:27:07 - May l have your name?
00:27:15 Forget what l said about buying
00:27:20 Liberty Valance is the toughest man
00:28:54 - Mr Peabody!
00:29:08 Did you know that Liberty Valance
00:29:11 l'd be a poor newspaperman indeed
00:29:14 if l didn't know
00:29:17 l don't know what to do,
00:29:21 Do what you're paid to. Run him out!
00:29:24 Run him out... Liberty Val...me?
00:29:25 - My advice to you as...
00:29:29 - And your personal pos...
00:29:33 ls to get supper and go to bed.
00:29:38 Sound advice, Marshal. Sound advice.
00:29:50 Hallie, my love, where are you?
00:29:53 Good evening.
00:29:56 Better order early before those
00:30:00 Hallie, please. The proprieties
00:30:06 How many times have l told you,
00:30:08 the fork goes to the left
00:30:11 You superstitious or something?
00:30:17 The usual.
00:30:18 Steak, beans, potatoes
00:30:23 - Three steaks with a lot of black.
00:30:28 - Lot of black-eyes, Hallie.
00:30:32 Three steaks,
00:30:35 Heavy on the beans.
00:30:39 - Steak, beans, potatoes.
00:30:44 Someday, he'll order something
00:30:55 Goodness, Rance,
00:30:57 No wonder if your mind isn't on it.
00:31:01 Hallie, l found it. l'll show...
00:31:04 Get the book.
00:31:07 Nora, Peter, come here and hear this.
00:31:11 That place right here where it says,
00:31:15 ''Under the law of this territory.''
00:31:19 l got Liberty Valance exactly where
00:31:24 What's the matter? Go ahead. Read it.
00:31:29 - l can't.
00:31:37 l never had the schooling,
00:31:48 You mean you can't read at all?
00:31:52 No, l can't read, and l can't write.
00:31:58 For heaven's sakes,
00:32:02 - Hallie...
00:32:08 Hallie, l'm sorry.
00:32:13 l could teach you.
00:32:17 What for? What good has reading
00:32:21 Look at you. ln an apron.
00:32:28 Be right with you, boys.
00:32:30 l do look funny in this.
00:32:33 She'll get over it. What is
00:32:37 She'll make a wonderful wife
00:32:41 And if Tom Doniphon is smart,
00:32:44 before some busybody l am married to
00:32:49 Aw, you!
00:32:52 - But l'm not finished.
00:33:17 What you cooking, steak and potatoes?
00:33:20 l'm hungry. Could l impose
00:33:24 Just a couple of those steaks
00:33:28 Marshal.
00:33:31 Not so loud.
00:33:35 One steak for one marshal
00:33:42 Marshal, l was wrong the other day,
00:33:44 but l've been reading up,
00:33:47 l'll draw up the complaint,
00:33:51 but you do have jurisdiction,
00:33:54 The next time he sets foot
00:33:59 Anything you say, Mr Stoddard.
00:34:06 - What was that? Arrest who?
00:34:10 Arrest Liberty Val...
00:34:15 Just when l was starting
00:34:20 A lot of black-eyes.
00:34:22 Steaks for the Brophy boys
00:34:26 - They're sober tonight, too.
00:34:38 Here's the supper for Rance.
00:34:44 - Thank you, Hallie.
00:34:47 You pop up
00:34:50 - You get in the habit.
00:34:53 l mean, grown-up and all?
00:34:57 Sure you can, Hallie.
00:35:01 lt'd be... Can you learn to read?!
00:35:06 A smart girl like you? Of course
00:35:11 lt's awful worrisome not knowing how.
00:35:16 but it'd be a soul comfort
00:35:20 l'll teach you how. ln no time,
00:35:28 Hallie, can l have
00:35:32 One steak on the cuff!
00:35:53 All right, all right.
00:35:58 Excuse me.
00:36:03 - Nora, did you hear the news?
00:36:05 - Rance'll learn me to read.
00:36:08 Teach me to read.
00:36:12 l cannot say my ABC in Swedish.
00:36:17 Sure, Nora.
00:36:20 Hal's my first. You'll be my second.
00:36:22 Peter, you hear that? Peter!
00:36:27 Well, pilgrim, l see you're still
00:36:32 Tom, look at you.
00:36:35 - lt's Saturday night.
00:36:39 l brought you a little present.
00:36:42 Prettiest cactus rose
00:36:45 lt's a beauty. Look at it, Nora.
00:36:47 - Should look nice in your garden.
00:36:51 - l'll be pleased to plant that.
00:36:55 The Hash outfit just arrived.
00:36:59 - Not too close to the ocotillo bush.
00:37:07 ''Ransom Stoddard, Attorney at Law.''
00:37:12 You're a persistent cuss, pilgrim.
00:37:15 You really aim to hang that up
00:37:18 - That's why l painted it.
00:37:23 You put that thing up,
00:37:27 and you ain't exactly the type.
00:37:32 Comin' up.
00:37:35 Thank you.
00:37:37 A girl needs six hands on Saturday
00:37:42 Any more colour and you'd be
00:37:46 Tom, that's mighty flattering.
00:37:49 Burn me a good, thick one, Pete,
00:37:53 - Hello, Kaintuck.
00:38:01 - Tom.
00:38:05 Not to yours, Tom.
00:38:12 l suppose you know
00:38:15 Yeah. l hear he sent word on ahead.
00:38:19 He won't like what the town's been
00:38:26 How about you, Kaintuck?
00:38:28 - l'd like a st...
00:38:30 - Yes, ma'am.
00:38:31 - And d-d-dee...
00:38:34 - Yeah.
00:38:37 Mighty nice girl,
00:38:41 l agree with you, sir.
00:38:45 What? Do l hear wedding bells?
00:38:50 Don't rush me,
00:39:00 There's your cactus rose.
00:39:03 Thank you, Pompey. lt is pretty.
00:39:06 Thank you, ma'am.
00:39:14 Look at that. lsn't that
00:39:18 Very pretty.
00:39:22 - Did you ever see a real rose?
00:39:29 But someday if they dam the river,
00:39:31 we'll have water
00:39:42 When you finish the dishes,
00:39:45 - Sure.
00:39:48 - A man waiting on tables?!
00:39:53 - Be glad to.
00:40:32 These steaks look done
00:40:37 You cowhands ain't in no hurry
00:40:43 Well, l am!
00:40:46 l guess we could do
00:40:51 That's right neighbourly
00:40:59 Especially after all the lies
00:41:01 l hear folks been saying
00:41:07 Wait a minute!
00:41:31 Lookee at the new waitress.
00:41:49 That's my steak, Valance.
00:41:56 You heard him, dude. Pick it up.
00:42:01 - No!
00:42:03 l said you, Valance. You pick it up.
00:42:08 - Three against one, Doniphon.
00:42:22 l'll get it, Liberty.
00:42:29 l said you, Liberty. You pick it up.
00:42:37 What's the matter?
00:42:44 There! There!
00:42:56 Why don't you get yourself
00:43:05 Show's over for now.
00:43:10 Try it, Liberty. Just try it.
00:43:20 Get out!
00:44:10 l wonder what scared him off.
00:44:12 You know what!
00:44:16 rising up from the gravy
00:44:19 All right, you made your point.
00:44:24 Pompey's gun, your gun, Tom.
00:44:26 Why did you interfere? He tripped me.
00:44:29 lt was my steak.
00:44:31 And you would have killed him for it,
00:44:33 or he would have killed you
00:44:37 - That's why l picked it up!
00:44:41 That isn't why l did it!
00:45:15 Rance, l'm sorry.
00:45:31 l'm not in the habit
00:45:39 Well, cool off, pilgrim.
00:45:44 lt's not all over, and everybody
00:45:48 He will, but not after me.
00:45:52 And you can't shoot back
00:45:55 What Peabody's saying is,
00:45:57 if you want to stay healthy,
00:46:01 Buy a gun or leave the territory,
00:46:05 - That's it, pilgrim.
00:46:07 l'd hate to see you go.
00:46:11 and you've been news
00:46:14 ''Ransom Stoddard, Attorney at Law.''
00:46:17 l didn't mean to hurt
00:46:21 l'll tell you what.
00:46:25 and l'll let you hang this
00:46:29 rent-free, for as long as it lasts.
00:46:31 No. The first time
00:46:36 he'll shoot it to pieces,
00:46:40 - How about that, Mr Peabody?
00:46:45 l accept your offer, Mr Peabody.
00:46:47 How about letting me hang that up
00:46:51 - Tomorrow? Well, of course.
00:46:56 Why not?
00:47:01 l'm staying,
00:47:06 Good luck, pilgrim.
00:47:09 Hallie,
00:47:12 north of the Picketwire,
00:47:18 Goodbye, Tom.
00:47:22 And take note of what goes on around
00:47:27 there won't be no newspaper
00:48:00 - Well, any news?
00:48:05 - But not twins?
00:48:08 l got this list of voters for you.
00:48:11 There are 37 new registrations
00:48:14 and not one needed a lawyer.
00:48:17 37? By golly!
00:48:23 maybe we can handle those cattle
00:48:49 - Did you write this, Mr Peabody?
00:48:56 - This is great.
00:49:02 This thing's just great.
00:49:08 As my old boss,
00:49:12 we'll tear their hearts out.
00:49:16 l'll be right there.
00:49:25 Let me have this.
00:49:32 Good morning. l'm sorry l'm late.
00:49:34 A teacher should never

00:49:43 - Morning, Marshal. How you feeling?
00:49:47 - Your head cold?
00:49:52 Excuse me. l just wanted

00:51:25 - No, sir. They weren't biting.
00:51:28 - Ain't you gonna whop him?
00:51:31 For the benefit of those of you
00:51:34 None of us in here smoke,
00:51:40 For those of you
00:51:43 l might explain to you
00:51:47 by studying about our country,
00:51:53 Now, let's see. Well, Nora...
00:51:56 Would you tell the class what you've
00:52:06 The United States is a republic,
00:52:12 and a republic is a state
00:52:16 in which the people are the boss.
00:52:23 That means us.
00:52:28 don't do like we want, we don't vote
00:52:34 - Any more!
00:52:36 That's fine, Nora. That's just fine.
00:52:40 Now, l wonder
00:52:43 what the basic law of the land
00:52:46 You remember l told you it had
00:52:51 by things called amendments.
00:52:53 Does anybody remember?
00:52:57 Pompey, you try this one.
00:53:05 lt was writ by Thomas Jefferson
00:53:08 - ''Was written'', Pompey.
00:53:12 - He called it the Constitution.
00:53:16 lt begun with the words...
00:53:22 - Self-evident.
00:53:25 - ''Self-evident, that...''
00:53:34 - That's fine, Pompey.
00:53:38 A lot of people forget that part.
00:53:42 - Thank you.
00:53:45 that governing power rests
00:53:48 That means you,
00:53:52 And you exercise this power
00:53:57 Con permiso, los gentlemen's?
00:54:02 Well, Hallie?
00:54:05 Here is the best textbook in
00:54:11 This is the ''Shinbone Star,''
00:54:16 And reading this ought to bring home
00:54:19 the importance of using that vote.
00:54:23 ''Cattlemen fight statehood.
00:54:27 lt says clearly that if big ranchers
00:54:32 win their fight to keep this
00:54:35 then all your truck farms and your
00:54:40 and everything, your kids' future,
00:54:46 And they call upon you,
00:54:49 they call upon you to unite
00:54:53 and carry this fight
00:54:57 Hello, Tom.
00:55:01 l'm looking for Pompey.
00:55:03 l've been away three weeks, and
00:55:08 Why have you been wasting time here?
00:55:12 Don't get rough with Pompey.
00:55:16 What l got to say to you
00:55:20 The good editor here
00:55:24 and you read 'em good,
00:55:27 the streets of Shinbone
00:55:31 Why are you against this,
00:55:34 Aren't there more votes
00:55:38 That's right, but votes
00:55:42 Guns? What guns, Tom?
00:55:44 You think Valance stays away
00:55:48 He's recruiting hired guns
00:55:51 - Si, papacito?
00:55:56 Come on.
00:55:58 Hallie, it would be a good idea
00:56:01 - Dismiss class?
00:56:06 Class dismissed! Same time tomorrow.
00:56:09 You get to the store.
00:56:14 lt could get worse
00:56:17 You think
00:56:19 lt's already started. Valance and
00:56:23 killed a couple of sodbusters,
00:56:26 You know that for a fact?
00:56:29 l do. They tried to bushwhack me,
00:56:33 - You putting that in your newspaper?
00:56:37 Print that,
00:56:40 You think they'll come here, Tom?
00:56:43 They'll be here,
00:56:46 according to how much
00:56:50 but election day, pilgrim, you
00:56:55 Hallie, go where you belong. l don't
00:56:59 Now, you listen to me, Tom Doniphon.
00:57:01 What l do and where l go isn't
00:57:07 Like l said, Hallie,
00:57:32 Rance. After all you've taught us,
00:57:35 how can you say
00:57:38 You heard what Tom said.
00:57:40 When force threatens,
00:57:53 Hallie, go find Tom
00:57:58 He's only trying to protect you.
00:58:44 Better let him go, Hallie.
00:58:49 Why? Where's he going?
00:58:52 He's going to need
00:58:56 Practice? What are you talking about?
00:59:03 l might as well let you know.
00:59:06 When he came in with me,
00:59:10 He's been going out in the country
00:59:16 You mean he's going to face up
00:59:22 That's the only way l figure it.
00:59:27 He just keeps on practising.
00:59:38 Tom! Tom Doniphon!
00:59:48 Hey, professor.
00:59:52 Where you going?
00:59:58 - l want to talk to you at my place.
01:00:24 Step down, pilgrim. Take a look.
01:00:33 All right, Tom,
01:00:36 l'm telling you
01:00:40 l'm building that room and porch
01:00:46 Tom, l guess everybody
01:00:49 Everybody except Hallie, maybe you.
01:00:54 That's a damn lie, and you know it.
01:00:59 Why did she come to me
01:01:03 because you were going to get killed
01:01:06 - l never told her.
01:01:10 l think you're bluffing.
01:01:12 l'm not bluffing about anything.
01:01:17 Pompey, bring two or three
01:01:29 - You have a gun, right?
01:01:31 Get it.
01:01:39 Come on.
01:01:46 All right, gunslinger.
01:01:52 Hit that can.
01:01:55 Pretty far.
01:01:58 - Pilgrim, you got to cock it.
01:02:10 Balance it light in your hand
01:02:15 You don't have to coach me.
01:02:26 Pompey, bring me those cans.
01:02:31 l'll show you how easy it is.
01:02:34 Take these cans.
01:02:40 Go ahead.
01:02:47 That's it. That first post.
01:02:50 - There?
01:02:57 Not there! On the far post.
01:03:02 That's right.
01:03:05 Now put that last one in the middle.
01:03:16 Pilgrim.
01:03:31 l hate tricks, pilgrim,
01:03:34 but that's what you're up against
01:03:37 He's almost as fast as l am.
01:03:46 l don't like tricks myself,
01:03:55 Pilgrim, you forgot your popgun.
01:04:17 l got you, Lyde. Ruf McMard.
01:04:23 Kaintuck! Leave the jug.
01:04:40 l am so proud of him.
01:04:46 Dutton Peabody
01:04:48 - Dutton Peabody.
01:04:52 Rance, we'll need you
01:04:56 ''Ransom Stoddard, Attorney at Law.''
01:05:00 - Peter Ericson, American citizen.
01:05:05 - See you for supper, Pete?
01:05:12 - Tom, look, we need a statehood!
01:05:21 Herbert? You're too young to vote.
01:05:44 Greetings. Hey, excuse me. Excuse me.
01:05:49 - l'll have the usual.
01:05:52 The bar is closed, Mr Editor,

01:07:56 in the territorial convention
01:08:04 You know the issue.
01:08:06 The cattle interests want to keep
01:08:10 No!
01:08:12 Ruled by their high-handed ideas,
01:08:16 And we - that means everybody
01:08:24 We want statehood, because it means

01:12:12 No, you don't. No!
01:12:15 l'm a newspaperman, not a politician.

01:13:19 Those in favour of Ransom Stoddard
01:13:28 All those in favour of Liberty
01:13:44 All those in favour of Dutton
01:13:49 - Let's get you a drink.

01:13:54 - Anything further on the election?
01:13:58 Then the bar is open.
01:14:08 That vote don't mean a thing.

01:15:01 Thanks.
01:15:34 ''Liberty Valance defeated.''
01:15:37 D-E-F-E-E... T-E-D?
01:15:44 The unsteady hand betrays.
01:15:49 What's the matter, Mr Peabody?
01:15:53 Are you afraid?
01:15:58 The answer is indub... yes.
01:16:10 No courage left.
01:16:14 Well, courage can be purchased
01:16:21 But have we credit?
01:16:28 Well, credit is cheap.

01:42:18 l came here
01:42:23 but this is no time for oratory.
01:42:33 Let me speak to you from the heart.
01:42:40 l come before you
01:42:44 the name of a man
01:42:49 to represent you in Washington.
01:42:54 You ill-advised.
01:42:57 You poorly counselled.
01:43:00 Fly not in the face
01:43:05 Join with us in supporting the man
01:43:09 who for five terms in Congress
01:43:12 has kept this great territory
01:43:18 l nominate
01:43:24 to the Congress of the United States
01:43:28 the Right Honourable
01:43:57 Order! Order!
01:44:12 Now that you got your rope on him,
01:44:42 Order! Order!
01:44:46 This is a convention,
01:44:53 Mr Chairman! Mr Chairman!
01:44:56 The chair recognises
01:45:00 that distinguished member
01:45:05 founder, owner, publisher and editor
01:45:11 Mr Dutton Peabody, Esquire.
01:45:20 Thank you, Mr Chairman,
01:45:23 but tell them the whole truth...
01:45:25 founder, owner, editor
01:45:32 Fellow delegates, like all of you,
01:45:35 l've listened in awe and admiration
01:45:40 of the Honourable
01:45:44 the cattlemen's mouthpiece.
01:45:46 The lowing herd is still with us.
01:45:50 But, seriously,
01:45:54 l could see once again
01:45:58 and savage redskin
01:46:01 with no law to trammel them
01:46:04 the law of the tomahawk
01:46:07 And then, with
01:46:11 came the pioneer and the buffalo
01:46:15 The boldest of these
01:46:19 who seized the wide-open range
01:46:23 and their law
01:46:29 But now, today have come
01:46:36 The steady, hard-working citizens,
01:46:40 the homesteader, the shopkeeper,
01:46:46 We need roads to join those cities,
01:46:49 dams to store up
01:46:52 and we need statehood
01:46:55 of every man and woman,
01:47:00 How do we get it? l'll tell you how.
01:47:03 We get it by placing our votes
01:47:06 One man!
01:47:10 He is a man who came to us
01:47:15 but carrying instead
01:47:21 Yes. He is a lawyer and a teacher.
01:47:26 The first west of the rosy buttes.
01:47:30 he's a man who has come to be known
01:47:34 in the last few weeks as
01:47:41 Ladies and gentlemen,
01:47:46 to the Congress at Washington,
01:48:09 Let's have order!
01:48:12 Get going, Starbuckle.
01:48:20 Thank you, Mr Chairman. Thank you.
01:48:27 Well...
01:48:29 l see this demonstration,
01:48:35 ls it possible
01:48:39 of honest, hard-working Americans
01:48:44 for the Congress
01:48:47 whose only claim to the office
01:48:51 Do you call Liberty Valance a man?!
01:48:56 Order! Order!
01:48:59 Hear me out!
01:49:03 Who is this Ransom Stoddard?
01:49:09 that entitle him to aspire
01:49:14 We are told he's a lawyer,
01:49:22 an officer of the court.
01:49:28 A man who usurps the function
01:49:34 and takes the law into his own hand.
01:49:44 Quiet! Quiet!
01:49:50 What other qualifications
01:49:53 The blood on his hands?
01:49:56 The hidden gun beneath his coat?
01:50:00 The bullet-riddled body
01:50:04 Honest citizen?! Liberty Valance?
01:50:06 You fool! Liberty Valance,
01:50:09 ls this your fearless champion
01:50:13 - Mr Chairman!
01:50:18 and the mark of Cain
01:50:22 if we send him
01:50:25 to walk the hallowed
01:50:28 - ..where Washington...
01:50:33 - Mr Chairman!
01:50:35 ...yes, and Lincoln still live,
01:50:41 Mr Chairman!
01:50:52 Rance! Rance!
01:50:54 Order! Order!
01:51:01 Pilgrim.
01:51:06 - Where are you going?
01:51:11 l'm going back east where l belong.
01:51:23 Valance couldn't make you run away.
01:51:30 lsn't it enough to kill a man,
01:51:35 You talk too much, think too much.
01:51:39 Besides,
01:51:47 - What?
01:51:55 Valance came out of the saloon.
01:51:57 You were walking toward him
01:52:02 Remember?
01:52:25 Pompey.
01:52:32 All right, dude.
01:53:02 But...
01:53:06 Cold-blooded murder,
01:53:10 Hallie's happy. She wanted you alive.
01:53:13 - But you saved my life!
01:53:19 Hallie's your girl now.
01:53:23 Go on back in there
01:53:26 You taught her
01:53:29 Now give her something
01:54:07 Well, you know the rest of it.

01:54:14 l became the first governor.
01:54:17 Three terms as governor,
01:54:22 Ambassador to the Court of St James,
01:54:29 and a man who,
01:54:33 could be the next vice president
01:54:42 You're not going to use the story,
01:54:45 No, sir.
01:54:50 This is the west, sir.
01:54:53 When the legend becomes fact,
01:54:56 He's right, Rance.
01:55:19 lt's getting late, Hallie.
01:55:25 We'll keep in touch with you,
01:55:30 - But, Mr Rance...
01:55:53 Hallie...
01:55:56 Hallie, would you be too sorry
01:56:00 if once l get the new
01:56:05 would you be too sorry
01:56:11 l sort of have a hankering
01:56:19 - Maybe open up a law office.
01:56:25 lf you knew how often
01:56:29 My roots are here.
01:56:35 Yes, let's come back.
01:56:40 Look at it.
01:56:44 Now it's a garden. Aren't you proud?
01:56:51 Hallie, who put the cactus roses
01:56:58 l did.

01:57:27 Thank you, Jason.
01:57:29 l'm going to write a letter
01:57:32 and thank them for their kindness
01:57:36 You think nothing of it.
01:57:38 Nothing's too good for the man
