(MOOING) |
00:01:12 |
I'm gonna have |
00:01:21 |
Come on. |
00:01:51 |
Oh, boy. |
00:02:51 |
All right. |
00:02:54 |
What's this all about? |
00:02:56 |
The captain said to drop the gun belt. |
00:02:59 |
Now! |
00:03:13 |
They're wearing the Johanson |
00:03:16 |
Whose else would they be? |
00:03:18 |
Where'd you get those cattle, mister? |
00:03:19 |
Just where that brand says. |
00:03:21 |
WILSON: Got them from Johanson, aye? |
00:03:22 |
That's right. |
00:03:23 |
And you've got a bill |
00:03:25 |
RENO: Now, hold, hold it! |
00:03:29 |
That's right. |
00:03:30 |
I thought maybe you'd like |
00:03:34 |
We'll look at it. |
00:03:51 |
You say you got this from Johanson? |
00:03:53 |
Yeah. |
00:03:55 |
Mr Maddow. |
00:04:05 |
Mr Maddow, is that Johanson's mark? |
00:04:12 |
Johanson didn't have to make his mark. |
00:04:16 |
He could write as good as you can. |
00:04:22 |
Hang him. |
00:04:53 |
(GRUNTS) |
00:05:08 |
(GROANS) |
00:05:11 |
Damn it! |
00:05:17 |
I'm an ex-lawman. |
00:05:19 |
COOPER: You can check with the |
00:05:26 |
Get Johanson! |
00:05:31 |
For God's sake, check it out! |
00:05:45 |
Are we gonna hang him |
00:05:47 |
Enough! |
00:05:49 |
- Put him on his horse. |
00:05:52 |
You've no claim to that, Reno. |
00:05:54 |
We got back Johanson's cattle, Captain, |
00:05:56 |
and we got the man that took them. |
00:05:57 |
Now, I like to see justice done, |
00:06:01 |
Anybody want to argue? |
00:06:02 |
If he's a rustler, he ain't |
00:06:06 |
MILLER: Well, he's got |
00:06:08 |
I want his wallet. |
00:06:12 |
Excepting if he's a rustler, |
00:06:14 |
how come he didn't make a run |
00:06:18 |
Wait a minute, Loomis. |
00:06:20 |
(PANTING) |
00:06:23 |
Now, tell me. |
00:06:25 |
You bought some cattle from Johanson. |
00:06:29 |
You saw the bill of sale. |
00:06:32 |
With the mark where Johanson was |
00:06:36 |
Yeah. |
00:06:38 |
What did Johanson look like? |
00:06:42 |
He's about 30. |
00:06:44 |
Dark hair, dark eyes, heavy-set. |
00:06:47 |
Pockmarked face, regular features. |
00:06:52 |
You have an eye for |
00:06:55 |
I told you, I was a lawman. |
00:06:59 |
Heavy-set, |
00:07:01 |
pockmarked, |
00:07:02 |
about 30. |
00:07:05 |
Liar. |
00:07:09 |
Johanson was 60. |
00:07:19 |
Well, maybe it was his foreman, |
00:07:24 |
But we can go back there and find out. |
00:07:27 |
COOPER: We can check it out. |
00:07:29 |
Mr Maddow. |
00:07:31 |
WILSON: Tell him. |
00:07:34 |
I just came from the Johanson place. |
00:07:37 |
His herd was gone. |
00:07:39 |
I found Johanson and his wife on |
00:07:44 |
Dead. |
00:07:46 |
No. |
00:07:51 |
Hang him. |
00:07:55 |
COOPER: No! |

I don't know who hung you or why, |

but if you're innocent, the |

That ain't gonna make the judge happy. |

What was I supposed to |
00:18:35 |
I ain't saying you was wrong. |

I'm just saying it ain't |

00:19:47 |
And I'll be needing more perfume. |
00:19:49 |
A dozen bottles? |
00:19:50 |
The cheapest, as long |
00:19:52 |
It's not for my girls. |

They come off the range smelling like... |

Yes, sir. |

All right, guard. |
00:26:10 |
Your story checks out, Cooper. |
00:26:21 |
$11? |
00:26:22 |
And 40 cents. That's all McCleod |
00:26:27 |
McCleod? |
00:26:28 |
McCleod was running from the law, |
00:26:31 |
holed up at Johanson's place, |
00:26:35 |
and then you blundered in. |
00:26:37 |
A stranger looking to buy some cattle, |
00:26:41 |
He must've got a pretty |
00:26:43 |
You wanna see what he looks like? |
00:26:46 |
Come on. |
00:27:11 |
McCleod took the money |
00:27:13 |
and came into town, |

The row, that's where we found him. |

(PEOPLE EXCLAIMING) |
00:27:56 |
May God have mercy on his soul. |
00:28:00 |
You're free to go, Cooper. |
00:28:06 |
With my $11.40? |
00:28:08 |
And the satisfaction of seeing the man |
00:28:11 |
What about the nine |
00:28:16 |
Just give their description to |
00:28:18 |
They'll try to pick them up. |
00:28:19 |
Well, that's not good enough. |
00:28:22 |
Cooper, you take the law into |
00:28:27 |
you'll swing from one of |
00:28:31 |
I know a little bit about |
00:28:36 |
That's right. |
00:28:38 |
You do. |
00:28:42 |
Sit down, Cooper. |
00:28:47 |
Please. |
00:29:00 |
You were a lawman in Saint Louis, |
00:29:03 |
a damn good one. |
00:29:06 |
I can use a good man, Cooper. |
00:29:10 |
Pay, 250 a month. |
00:29:12 |
That's 230 more than |
00:29:15 |
232 more than as an army sergeant. |
00:29:19 |
That hanging rope didn't kill ya. |
00:29:22 |
How much did you make in Saint Louis? |
00:29:25 |
It's 200 more than I |
00:29:29 |
250, plus expenses. |
00:29:34 |
I warn you, the pay is a |
00:29:39 |
There. $200. |
00:29:42 |
Plus 50 President Harrison owes you. |
00:29:46 |
Seems like you're a man |
00:29:49 |
and don't have too many takers. |
00:29:51 |
You sound like a man who is protesting |

You sign on, you'll |

There you are. |

The Oklahoma and Indian Territory, |
00:30:03 |
Nineteen marshals. |
00:30:07 |
Told the president even |
00:30:09 |
Nineteen marshals and one court to |
00:30:15 |
A happy hunting ground |
00:30:18 |
horse thieves, whiskey peddlers, |
00:30:22 |
marauders that'll kill |

Now that's why there's a |
00:30:28 |
itching to sit on somebody's |
00:30:34 |
Your marshals do cover |
00:30:37 |
You'll ride circuit over an area |
00:30:41 |
if and when it's Marshal Cooper. |
00:30:45 |
Pick up the badge, Mr. Cooper. |
00:30:52 |
Pick up the badge, or leave |
00:31:06 |
Those nine men, |
00:31:09 |
if you find them, they're to |
00:31:19 |
That old horse should |
00:31:21 |
All right. |
00:31:24 |
Good luck, Marshal. |
00:31:25 |
Thank you. |
00:32:12 |
You're Cooper? |
00:32:15 |
Judge sent a wire you was coming. |
00:32:18 |
Wasn't there nobody outside? |
00:32:21 |
There's two men with shotguns. |
00:32:24 |
I haven't had me a night's sleep |
00:32:27 |
How many men did you bring with you? |
00:32:30 |
Can you have him ready |
00:32:34 |
Just the two of you? |
00:32:37 |
Yeah. |

The hotel here in town, |

I better have something |

you got a right to try |

You're under arrest, Reno. |
00:34:08 |
You talking to me, Marshal? |
00:34:10 |
Your name's Reno, isn't it? |
00:34:14 |
Look, Marshal, I don't |
00:34:16 |
you're running here... |
00:34:17 |
Well, I wouldn't know. |
00:34:21 |
Now, I'm gonna wash down |
00:34:36 |
All right, Marshal, |
00:34:40 |
You don't remember me, do ya? |
00:34:41 |
No. |
00:34:44 |
When you hang a man, |
00:34:58 |
Don't go for that gun, Reno. |
00:35:37 |
Do you know him? |
00:35:40 |
Anybody here know him? |
00:35:43 |
Come up here and take a look at him. |
00:35:45 |
He must've just rode in. |
00:35:47 |
That's what he said. |
00:35:49 |
Elwood? Well, I... |
00:35:52 |
$15 ought to do a fair job, Marshal. |
00:35:55 |
All right. There's $7 there, |
00:35:59 |
And mark it down there. |
00:36:03 |
Don't anybody leave! |
00:36:05 |
I want everybody to write down in |
00:36:08 |
I didn't see nothing, Marshal. |
00:36:10 |
Fine, then you say that in writing. |
00:36:12 |
Nobody's gonna fault ya, Marshal. |
00:36:15 |
COOPER: Then say it in writing. |
00:36:17 |
Marshal, I can't write. |
00:36:20 |
Well, the sheriff here will write it |
00:36:24 |
Sheriff, there's a saddle out there |
00:36:27 |
If any of his friends |
00:36:30 |
and want his horse or his |
00:36:32 |
COOPER: You can wire me in Fort Grant. |
00:36:34 |
You gonna pick up the Swede now? |
00:36:36 |
No, no. |
00:37:00 |
Marshal. |
00:37:02 |
The Swede! That's the one the |
00:37:07 |
Swede! |
00:37:44 |
What was that all about? |
00:37:46 |
That's Judge Fenton's orders. |
00:37:48 |
Nobody comes in or out |
00:37:51 |
Marshal! Judge wants |
00:37:54 |
Thank you. |
00:38:08 |
Good work, Cooper. See? |
00:38:13 |
FENTON: The good Lord takes |
00:38:15 |
He just waltzed in here |
00:38:22 |
I never wanted to hang you, mister. |
00:38:24 |
I asked them to give you a chance. |
00:38:27 |
Maybe you remember that. |
00:38:29 |
I remember that. |
00:38:32 |
I was here in Fort Grant |
00:38:35 |
when I heard a marshal with a |
00:38:39 |
I knew then we... |
00:38:44 |
So I turned myself in. |
00:38:46 |
The others? |
00:38:48 |
I've already made out the |
00:38:50 |
Where? |
00:38:53 |
Good. |
00:38:57 |
All right, Cooper, you do it your way. |
00:39:01 |
I don't know why you had to kill Reno. |
00:39:04 |
It's in my report. |
00:39:06 |
I needed these names. |
00:39:07 |
You got your names. |
00:39:09 |
Mister, you make sure the rest of |
00:39:19 |
Jenkins? Sit down, please. |
00:40:09 |
You're under arrest. Move! |

Maddow, Charlie Blackfoot, Captain... |
00:41:33 |

00:41:39 |
Now, I understand four of these men |
00:41:43 |
Maddow and Miller I'm not sure about. |
00:41:45 |
Maddow, he owns a spread around here. |
00:41:48 |
Miller, he... |
00:41:50 |
Miller's a drifter. |
00:41:53 |
Look, Marshal, these men you're looking |
00:41:56 |
They're friends of mine. |
00:41:57 |
Well, these friends of yours are wanted |

I won't be much good |

You're in good hands, however. |

Don't give me that bad-back stuff. |

that he'd come back |

a home where I had many a |

I had to bring him back and |
01:08:55 |
He made a break for it. |
01:08:57 |
I tried to shoot low, but |
01:09:06 |
I heard you paid 800 to the skunk |
01:09:09 |
and sold you their herd. |
01:09:12 |
That's right. |
01:09:14 |
How much did you get back |
01:09:18 |
$11.40. |

we hung an innocent man, |

and we didn't finish the job. |

01:18:59 |
Get your cold beer! Get your cold beer here! |
01:19:03 |
Pretzels, licorice sticks. |
01:19:06 |
Cold beer! Right here. |
01:19:09 |
Cold beer! Here's your change. |
01:19:12 |
Here's 5, here's 10. |
01:19:14 |
Sarsaparilla for the kiddies. |
01:19:17 |
Sarsaparilla for all the kiddies. |
01:19:20 |
Hey, what are you doing? |
01:19:23 |
Can't you please see me tomorrow? |
01:19:25 |
I don't want to miss the hanging! |
01:19:29 |
PREACHER: "And the Lord said, |
01:19:34 |
"'confess thy iniquities and |
01:19:37 |
"'and he will forgive thee thy sins. "' |
01:19:39 |
Now, Preacher? |
01:19:45 |
"Blessed is the man that walketh |
01:19:49 |
"nor standeth in the way of sinners, |
01:19:51 |
"nor sitteth in the |
01:19:54 |
"But his delight is |
01:20:00 |
"and in his law doth he |
01:20:05 |
"And he shall be like a tree |
01:20:10 |
"that bringeth forth |
01:20:14 |
"His leaf shall not wither, |
01:20:16 |
"and whatever he doeth |
01:20:20 |
Amen. |
01:20:24 |
We will now sing Rock of Ages. |
01:20:27 |
Get your cold beer and your sarsaparilla |
01:20:30 |
ALL: (SINGING) Rock of ages |
01:20:34 |
Cleft for me |
01:20:38 |
Let me hide myself in thee |
01:20:46 |
Let the water and the blood |
01:20:53 |
From thy wounded |
01:20:57 |
Side which flowed |
01:21:01 |
Be of sin the double cure |
01:21:08 |
Save from wrath and make me pure |
01:21:17 |
While I draw this fleeting breath |
01:21:25 |
When mine eyes shall close in death |
01:21:33 |
When I rise to worlds unknown |
01:21:40 |
And behold thee on thy throne |
01:21:48 |
Rock of ages |
01:21:52 |
Cleft for me |
01:21:57 |
Let me hide myself in thee |
01:22:09 |
Do you have last requests? |
01:22:13 |
Do you have last requests? |
01:22:14 |
I'd sure like me a chaw of tobacco. |
01:22:17 |
What's the matter, hangman? |
01:22:19 |
and cheat you out of your hanging fee? |
01:22:33 |
Mmm. |
01:22:34 |
Put it in my pocket. |
01:22:44 |
Mmm! Mmm! |
01:23:03 |
Now, Preacher? |
01:23:04 |
You may say your piece now, Duffy. |
01:23:09 |
You are now looking for the last time |
01:23:13 |
at the mortal body of |
01:23:17 |
born to John and Edna Duffy... |
01:23:19 |
Do you have last requests? |
01:23:21 |
...good, God-fearing folk, |
01:23:24 |
who raised me up to be a good man... |
01:23:26 |
Ben? ... |
01:23:28 |
Bye, Ben. Bye. |
01:23:32 |
DUFFY: A good husband |
01:23:34 |
a good father to my children, |
01:23:37 |
whom I leave behind, |
01:23:39 |
hoping that they and |
01:23:44 |
Do you have last requests? |
01:23:46 |
...this here lesson |
01:24:05 |
When you take the devil into |
01:24:11 |
For he is lying there in wait for |
01:24:17 |
waiting for you to take |
01:24:20 |
Do you have last requests? |
01:24:21 |
...waiting to get down into your guts... |
01:24:24 |
Tell him to shut up and |
01:24:26 |
...where he can do his devil's work. |
01:24:29 |
Liquor is the most foul, evil |
01:24:35 |
It destroyed good men like myself. |
01:24:39 |
DUFFY: It'll destroy you, too. |
01:24:41 |
Do you have last requests? |
01:24:42 |
DUFFY: And beer is not much better. |
01:24:44 |
It's slower and cheaper. |
01:24:57 |
(GROANS) |
01:25:10 |
So take these words of advice. |
01:25:13 |
And remember, you heard |
01:25:17 |
got no more cause to lie, |
01:25:20 |
'cause he's going to meet his Maker. |
01:25:24 |
And now he's ready. |
01:25:27 |
Well, that's all I've got to say. |
01:25:38 |
Will you all bow your heads |
01:25:50 |
May God have mercy on their poor souls, |
01:25:53 |
as he has upon all the |
01:25:59 |
Amen. |
01:26:00 |
Amen. Amen. |

(PEOPLE SCREAMING) |
01:27:36 |
Dear God! |
01:27:43 |
(KNOCKING AT DOOR) |
01:27:44 |
All right, all right, I'm coming! |
01:27:49 |
Judge Fenton. |
01:27:50 |
I come to praise Sophie, |
01:27:53 |
I thought maybe you came to... |
01:27:54 |
Now, Sophie. |
01:27:56 |
Well, now at least I know what |
01:27:59 |
How is he this morning? |
01:28:01 |
I've never seen a man who |
01:28:04 |
I gotta see him right now, Sophie. |
01:28:06 |
Check with Rachel. |
01:28:12 |
She stayed all night? |
01:28:13 |
You heard, Doc. |
01:28:17 |
As it was, somebody |
01:28:18 |
A couple of my girls volunteered. |
01:28:21 |
Same room. Honeymoon suite, |
01:28:24 |
Thanks, Sophie. |
01:28:25 |
Good morning, Judge. |
01:28:27 |
Anything I can do for you? No, no. |
01:28:31 |
(KNOCKING AT DOOR) |
01:28:38 |
It's all right, Judge. |
01:28:46 |
I heard about what you did, Rachel. |
01:28:49 |
Why don't you sit down? |
01:28:54 |
Can I get you something? |
01:28:57 |
I shouldn't have done this. |
01:29:11 |
Who did it, Jed? |
01:29:17 |
Much as you want them, Jed, I |
01:29:25 |
It's bad enough when a deputy gets |
01:29:30 |
but here, in Fort Grant, |
01:29:36 |
We can't let them get away with that. |
01:29:39 |
Now, who did it? |
01:29:43 |
I'll go after them myself. |
01:29:48 |
For the love of God, son! |
01:29:50 |
God's got nothing to do with it. |
01:29:53 |
I'll take care of them. |
01:29:59 |
(KNOCK AT DOOR) |
01:30:10 |
Want me to take over? |
01:30:12 |
RACHEL: No. |
01:30:15 |
Thank you. |
01:30:16 |
You could use a good night's sleep. |
01:30:22 |
All right, honey, but one of these |
01:30:26 |
and you're gonna have |
01:31:47 |
You're perspiring. |
01:31:52 |
Don't drink your milk so fast. |
01:32:05 |
You look tired. |
01:32:11 |
You know you're a nag? |
01:32:16 |
A very pretty one, but a nag. |
01:32:34 |
What was that for? |
01:32:35 |
Just thanks. |
01:32:39 |
You're welcome. |
01:32:44 |
I'll get some salt for the eggs. |
01:32:47 |
Forget the salt. |
01:32:52 |
Please. |
01:32:54 |
Please don't. |
01:32:57 |
Yeah, well, I guess... |
01:32:59 |
I guess my life isn't |
01:33:12 |
Please. |
01:33:15 |
I'm sorry. |
01:33:28 |
What's the matter? |
01:33:37 |
I was married, back in Denver. |
01:33:41 |
His name was Paul. |
01:33:43 |
He was a doctor and a very fine man. |
01:33:48 |
He used to say this was his place, |
01:33:51 |
this was where doctors were needed. |
01:33:57 |
One night, after we'd camped, |
01:34:01 |
we sat around the fire, talking, |
01:34:04 |
husband and wife talk |
01:34:06 |
about how many children |
01:34:10 |
and what a wonderful life we |
01:34:19 |
And then they came. |
01:34:23 |
Two men on horseback. |
01:34:26 |
Just some food. |
01:34:29 |
Just to share our food, |
01:34:35 |
And one of them |
01:34:39 |
put his hand on me. |
01:34:44 |
And there was a shot. |
01:34:47 |
And Paul was dead. |
01:34:52 |
And they just left him there lying |
01:35:00 |
And they took me. |
01:35:06 |
And took me. |
01:35:29 |
The tumbleweed wagon? |
01:35:32 |
The jail? |
01:35:42 |
And what happens when you find them? |
01:35:50 |
Or if you don't find them? |
01:35:57 |
Ever? |
01:36:03 |
(THUNDER RUMBLING) |
01:36:09 |
We'd better hurry! |
01:39:40 |
Miss Rachel, where do you |
01:39:43 |
What is it, Marvin? |
01:39:44 |
Where do you want these blankets? |
01:39:46 |
Just put them in the back someplace. |
01:39:48 |
Yes, ma'am. |
01:39:59 |
MAN: Hi, Marshal! |
01:40:24 |
You asked me once whether I |
01:40:27 |
I think now I can. |
01:40:30 |
Can you? |
01:40:32 |
Well, Rachel, there's a difference. |
01:40:34 |
You see, I'm not... |
01:40:38 |
The end of my trail's in Red Creek. |
01:40:41 |
Maybe not. |
01:40:43 |
What then? |
01:40:46 |
I don't know. |
01:41:49 |
(GROWLING) |
01:42:32 |
Think we got him? |
01:42:33 |
I don't know. |
01:42:36 |
The dog or the shot, either one. |
01:43:02 |
Why ain't that dog yapping? |
01:43:05 |
If that marshal was alive that dog |
01:43:07 |
I told you I didn't know! |
01:43:14 |
LOOMIS: But I aim to find out. |
01:43:19 |
No! |
01:43:22 |
No, Captain. |
01:43:32 |
Why don't he move? |
01:43:34 |
(SHUSHING) |
01:44:03 |
Tommy! |
01:45:06 |
COOPER: Drop it. |
01:46:46 |
(SPIKES CLINKING) |
01:48:12 |
(JENKINS COUGHING) |
01:48:25 |
Dead. |
01:48:31 |
Loomis, all of them, dead. |
01:48:36 |
All except Maddow, Blackfoot, |
01:48:42 |
Count me dead, too. |
01:48:47 |
I just want to say that I |
01:48:52 |
for what that's worth. |
01:48:55 |
It's worth something. |
01:49:04 |
(JAIL DOOR CLOSING) |
01:49:13 |
So that's how it is? |
01:49:16 |
That Rachel lit a fire in you |
01:49:20 |
You lit a fire in each other. |
01:49:22 |
Now you're going to get married |
01:49:25 |
Devil take the rest of the world. |
01:49:27 |
Maybe. |
01:49:28 |
You used the law and a badge to |
01:49:32 |
Well, how many men are you going |
01:49:35 |
Go to hell, Cooper. |
01:49:36 |
I've already been there, Judge, |
01:49:41 |
And old man Jenkins is gonna die there. |
01:49:43 |
Is he sick? |
01:49:46 |
I'll get a doctor down there for him. |
01:49:47 |
Let him go! |
01:49:49 |
So he can go on and look for |
01:49:51 |
He's an old man. |
01:49:55 |
Well! |
01:49:57 |
And that was an old rope he |
01:50:00 |
but it came damn near to |
01:50:03 |
What's the matter with you, Cooper? |
01:50:06 |
You got Jenkins on your conscience? |
01:50:08 |
Think I judged him too harshly, |
01:50:10 |
used him like a piece of |
01:50:14 |
Well, maybe that's inevitable when |
01:50:18 |
with the power of final justice |
01:50:20 |
over a territory five times |
01:50:24 |
Mistakes? I've made them, |
01:50:28 |
Don't you doubt either there are times |
01:50:31 |
I've wished, I have prayed |
01:50:34 |
that there was someone standing |
01:50:38 |
someone with the power to say, |
01:50:40 |
"You're wrong, Fenton. |
01:50:42 |
"This man here deserves another trial, |
01:50:45 |
"this man here a reprieve, |
01:50:52 |
But until this territory |
01:50:55 |
with a governor and a |
01:50:58 |
I'm the law here, all the law. |
01:51:02 |
And if you don't like that, you can |
01:51:07 |
Or you can join me, Cooper. |
01:51:09 |
Even fight me! |
01:51:11 |
Help me turn this godforsaken |
01:51:14 |
where no one man calls himself the law. |
01:51:17 |
I want that old man pardoned. |
01:51:19 |
You pick up your badge. |
01:51:21 |
Tonight. |
01:51:30 |
You take this down. |
01:51:33 |
Give it to one of the |
01:51:35 |
If there are any questions, |
01:51:38 |
There'll be no questions. |
01:52:04 |
Cooper? |
01:52:06 |
Charlie Blackfoot was seen |
01:52:09 |
I got two unfilled warrants here. |
01:52:12 |
Blackfoot and Maddow. |
