Harry Tracy: The Last of the Wild Bunch (1982) - full transcript
By the year 1900, Butch Cassidy, the Sundance Kid, John Wesley Hardin, and virtually all of the West's legendary outlaws are either dead or in jail pending execution-all of them, that is, except train robber and escape artist extraordinaire, Harry Tracy. As the last survivor of the Wild Bunch, Tracy pulls off a series of profitable robberies before making his way west to Portland, Oregon, in search of Catherine Tuttle, a judge's daughter who has captured his heart. Instead, Tracy is betrayed, arrested, and imprisoned. But no jail can hold him for long. After making his escape, Tracy becomes the target of the largest manhunt in the history of North America. He seeks out Catherine who joins him in his flight, and their love deepens under the constant threat of capture. With hundreds of posses and national guardsmen on their heels, Tracy knows that time is running out-and when it does, there will only be two options: surrender or die...
What the..
Music.
Damn Nate,
he did it again!
[gunshots firing].
Music.
If I didn't have
bad luck,
I wouldn't have
any luck at all.
Look, why don't you look
where you're going?!
Lord, you're the prettiest
thing I ever saw.
What's your name?
It's Harry Tracy,
the desperado.
That's already killed
20 men.
Well, that's not right,
ma'am.
As far as I could count,
there's only, uh...
1...2...
8!
Hey, Morrie!
You ain't mad
are you?
Hold it!
I'm the Sheriff here
and this man is my prisoner.
Just who the hell are you,
anyway?
I'm Morrie Nathan,
United States Marshall
for the Utah.
You should've been
expecting me.
I'm gonna take this man
back to the penitentiary.
It's good I came by
when I did
or he wouldn't be
anybody's prisoner,
now would he?
Hey! No pictures!
No pictures!
Get that thing out of here.
Hold on now, Morrie.
Let's just wait one minute.
You shouldn't be taking
all the credit for this.
If I hadn't stolen a horse.
Damn gun-
see?
He admits it now,
you hear?
Now, if I'd have my rifle-
any man who's stealing
on Christmas Eve,
ain't got no decency,
and should be strung up
pretty damn quick.
Heard you about hanging me
and it's Christmas.
Shut up, Harry, or else.
I said, he's my prisoner.
Boys don't start now.
You let him break out.
He got out
of your penitentiary first.
I could've had him
in North Dakota.
Show me a warrant, boy!
What you say your name was?
She's Catherine.
I'm her sister, Judy.
We're from Portland.
That's in Oregon.
Portland? Way out there.
You know what I always want
to do?
I always wanted to get me
on a boat and go for a ride
on the ocean.
Have you ever been
in the ocean?
Cate, man's a primitive.
I've read he eats babies.
IWell, that's only cause.
they're so tender, ma'am.
Don't fret on him.
They were just Indian babies.
TheYou know what I'm goinges.
to do the time next time
I break out?
I'm going to come
see you Kate, in Portland,
Oregon.
Up you, come on.
Well, look at here Tracy.
Look at here!
Here's your ugly face
right in front page.
Bet you hear her
being a young wench.
It says Catherine Tuttle,
daughter of recently
deceased federal court judge
Benjamin Tuttle,
Portland, Oregon,
was instrumental
in the apprehension
of famed outlaw,
Harry Tracy.
That's the newspaper people.
Reporters, I don't know
how they do it
but every single time
they get there.
Let me see it, Morrie.
This can't be
a Tuttle now,
she's much too famed
for the likes of you.
Morrie, let me see it.
Judge's daughter.
Ain't that pathetic.
Are you the one?
Are you responsible for this?
Yeah.
But, but ma'am,
that picture, your picture
will be on the front page
of papers from New York
to San Francisco.
Most folks would tickle
death to get their picture
in the paper.
Well, I am not one of them.
Besides,
I had no more to do
with apprehending him
than you did.
It's all lies.
You call him
a mad dog killer.
Yeah, when he could've
harmed us.
He did nothing.
He could've taken us
hostage
or raped us.
Why didn't you get a picture
of that marshall trying to...
I think he hit this man
over the head instead of
this.
But, miss,
I can't take pictures
while people are moving.
No,no,no,no,no.
That's quite enough
squabbling.
My daughter is quite capable
of making up her own mind
and I'm afraid
you'll just have to abide
by her decision.
You're ashamed, ma'am.
I mean, everyone can see
how Tracy was real taken
with her.
Now, your daughter
could become
a celebrity
practically overnight.
I mean to say
we all know how outlaws
get even more famous
once they're dead.
What do you mean dead?
Tracy wasn't
that severely injured.
Besides, they've taken him
to prison, not to the gallows.
Well, if that marshall
has his way.
I reckon Tracy won't
make it back to prison
this time.
Supposedly he caused
trouble again
and now they got him
staked out behind the jail
in his long underwear.
Another hour,
he'll be frozen to death.
They can't do that.
No, they can't.
Good lord,
what have they've done?
He's still breathing,
mother.
Ladies, just who the hell
are you?
Who would it be
that I know the law
better than you do, Sheriff?
This is a criminal act
This isfor whichal act
you could be jailed.
Now, you get this man
unshackled and inside
before he perishes.
The Marshall's doing, ma'am
not mine.
And being Federal Marshall,
oh well, that means he's got
more authority than I do.
And well, it means
he's got the keys too.
I see.
But where is this Marshall
then?
[door opens].
What the hell?
We haven't time
for pleasantries, Marshall.
for pIf you don't comehall.
and take your prisoner inside
you'll have his murder
on your hands.
And I can assure you
I will press charges myself.
And who the devil are you
to be telling me what to do?
I am the widow
of a federal court judge.
And as such I still know
who to go to
in order to have
your hide.
We can start
with the Governor,
if you wish.
[bells ringing]
I am not sure
how I'm gonna thank you
for all you've done for me.
I won't forget you.
I I think perhaps
it might be best
if you didn't.
What in the hell
is the matter with you?
Didn't you even think
to take your hat off
for a lady?
I don't ever take
my hat off.
And sure enough
not for some soft-hearted
meddling woman.
[water splashing].
Music.
We better go
check the cars.
Pretty girl like you
ought to be waiting
on a new year at a party,
don't you think?
You sure don't say much,
do you?
I can never think
of anything to say.
Or you could say
you'll remember me.
You could say that,
one time.
I will remember you.
Happy New Year,
Catherine Tuttle.
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year, Harry Tracy.
Make a wish.
Music.
I've got to use
the facility.
Nothing fancy, huh.
Only one way I know
how to do it, Morrie.
[knocking on door]
Hey Tracy!
Don't go falling asleep
in there.
Put them down.
Put them down!
Now, who's in the box car?
Two boys watching
the horses.
They don't even got guns.
I have every reason
to blow you to kingdom come,
Morrie.
But I never shot a man yet,
who wasn't defending himself,
and I ain't about to start
right now.
Now, you got off here
I guess that means
this is your stop.
Now, turn around single file
and start walking.
All of you.
It's a long way
to Utah, Morrie.
Single file that way.
Come on, keep going.
Right behind him.
Start trotting.
Trot!
Don't look back.
Music.
Take this train
up the track and don't stop
until you got a least
ten miles, alright?
[gunshot firing].
Music.
Happy new year, boys!
Make a wish!
Music.
Who are you?
Who am i?
The question is
who the hell are you?
I'm Harry Tracy.
Tracy?
You are Tracy.
I'm Dave Merril.
I didn't ask you
what your name was.
I asked you who you were?
I'm a painter.
I come all this way to paint
this country side
and famous outlaws,
just like you.
You look like you could use
a little warm food
and a fire, Harry.
Won't you come to the cabin.
Nobody calls me Harry
but my mama.
She's in Indiana.
Music.
Where is everybody?
Where's all the boys?
I guess you aint heard.
They're all gone.
All of them.
There's nobody here
but me.
I came here to paint them
but there's nobody's here.
Music.
You're really a painter?
Yeah.
A good one too.
Pays none too sweet.
PayA couples timest.
I'd have to do
a little fast business
to get some money.
But I'll tell you something,
Harry.
I think the world
should see a portrait
of you done by me.
That's what I think.
Something else
I'd be real honored.
I could ride with you too.
Well, a little portrait's
just fine.
Riding with me south,
I don't want you dead.
And I sure as hell
don't need you.
I'm sorry.
I've come a long way
I swear.
And I got nowhere else
to go.
You know what year it is?
1900.
Oh that means,
is it taking a more
wild bunch to joing up with?
All that's left is
ten horned politicians,
government bootlickers,
hired law.
There's no more outlaws
left, David.
It's over.
That's over.
Even for portraits.
None left.
That actually means
that's there's
not gonna be
anymore Americans left.
And you know
what else it means?
You gotta be a painter.
Cause David Merrill,
you sure as hell can't cook.
[gunshots]
What are you doing?
[gunshot firing].
Killing my horse.
Do you suppose we could do
another one for my ma?
She's the only body
I ever been partial to
in my life.
She's the tickle pink.
You really wannna rob banks,
Dave?
Uh-hmmm.
You know what they'd do
to you if they catch you?
No, what do they do?
Hang yah.
It appears not easy even
getting that right.
They tried doing the job
on a poor, old,
black jack ketchum,
and they waited
to speak down some bad,
that they tore his head
clean off his shoulders.
I'd think it over, Dave.
It could be a mighty plate.
I can't wait anymore.
Well, you are a hell
of a painter.
Yes, you're David Merrill.
You are pretty damn good.
Hah!
One a hell of a painter.
It appears as though
you'll be riding out
pretty soon, Harry.
We should think about
taking me along.
I'd like to ride with you.
I'm a good hand.
Yeah.
You damn never married
your hand, this one.
It's probably why
you can hardly see.
No, wait a minute.
I can see as good as you,
and you know it.
Oh really?
You razed a bank?
Razed a bank? Sure.
A couple.
You better not eat this.
That's pure bull,
and you know it.
The only thing you ever
razed in your life
was your pants.
David...
You are surely
the mold on the market.
Any man so desperate
being an outlaw,
there ain't hardly
none left.
There's a hand up.
Besides,
you ain't got much
of a future as a painter.
You said so yourself.
You'll make
a pathetic outlaw.
But I'll be there.
Okay?
You just keep driving this
until we a pond.
Jumping off to the right.
We got the horses there.
Keep this thing going
until I tell you to stop.
Then you stop, alright?
Music.
Boys...
You can tell him
Harry Tracy is back.
Music.
Alright! This is it!
Stop!
Music.
Go get at the ledge.
Keep going! Come on!
Music.
[gunshots].
Come on.
My glasses.
I can't hit them?
Come on, get in the woods.
[gunshots].
I'll shoot them.
You get in the woods!
Get in the woods!
[gunshots].
Help me off
with my boots.
I thought I was gonna die
on that train.
Some robber, you are.
Here, the other one.
What a gunman!
Well, ain't that funny.
I could've lost my glasses
permanent.
Where's the money?
What money?
Oh, didn't you see, huh?
OWhile you were helping?
the engineer
drive that train,
I had the chance,,
to spend it.
Take my boots, come on.
This way so we won't
be seen.
We got to hurry up.
Get around there.
Behind the horses. Go.
Just go over there.
Come on, boy.
Let's go.
Come on, little boy.
Get on that train
with me, boy.
Good boy.
Come on
we'll get some horses.
Come oN. Come on, now.
We got horses over there.
Hey!
Excuse me.
But they split up.
One went that way.
The other one over there
in the woods.
Yah. Yah. Yah.
Harry,
that was some slick.
That was some slick.
Well, David,
that's more than
I can say for you.
You know, I got a certain
kind of reputation
to uphold.
I can't continue to tolerate
this kind of rat hole
incompetence.
Word is gonna get around.
Why is it my fault
some fool
pull the emergency switch.
It wasn't my personal doing.
Wait a minute.
Forgive me.
There is one good thing
about banks.
They ain't moving
when you're robbing them.
Come on.
Music.
Okay. Everybody.
This here is a raid.
Don't nobody move nothing,
know how.
You sure got
impeccable grammar,
you know that?
For goodness sake.
You can't rob my bank.
This is the 20th century.
I'm Harry Tracy.
This is David Merrill.
I presume that you're
the manager.
- Is that correct?
- Yes.
We're not actually
robbing your bank.
We're making what
you might refer to as
forced withdrawal.
But we haven't been robbed
since '87.
Well!
Don't you think it's time
you were?
Don't you want to make
few headlines, huh?
You know what this is,
right here?
Nitroglycerin!
And there's enough in this
little vial that I have here
to blow us off,
him and me and my
fellow Dave here
and all of you fine
progressive folks from here
to smithereens!
Oh, no!
Music.
Come on, Harry.
Let's go.
Oops. Make a wish.
My god!
A robber came up!
You know, Sheriff,
we could look from
hell of correction
I can't find a sign
on those two.
Little wonder that Tracy
knows all there is to know
about running.
But what if he should
come back?
You know I got to mind
payrolls coming in
at the end of the week.
Burchill, you'll be out
of the territory
by tomorrow morning,
either in Utah or Colorado
just as far away
as you can get.
Skemp.
Here, Skemp.
Hey, Skemp.
That's a good watch dog. Yeah.
You've earned your reward,
yeah.
Come on.
Let's go for a walk.
Atta boy.
Oh, god! It's them.
The Sheriff said he wasn't
gonna come back here again.
I chose you wish it's not.
I'm ready for you
this time.
You better not try anything.
He's viscious.
Sick him.
Sick him, Skemp.
Turn him into pieces.
[dog barking]
Well, he...
He's...Usually vicious.
Usually
Good dog, Skemp. Yes!
Must be his day-off
from viciousness, huh?
No siree.
You're not going to fool me
with that.
Sir, I would never be
fooling you, would i?
Not again.
Not on this day.
[bomb explosion].
[coughs].
Holy Jesus!
You portlets.
[coughs].
Come on. Come on boy.
Let's go home. Harry's gone.
Come on now.
Come on. Come on.
Come on.
Dave!
Somebody's got backbone
around here.
[coughs].
Music.
Harry, we're going to ride
all the way
to pacific ocean.
Yeah.
But first I got a little
score to settle
with a fellow.
But it's actually on the way.
Uhh, I'm sick of potion.
Harry, who lives here?
Morrie Nathan.
He's a united states
Marshall.
Morrie Nathan.
I've heard of him.
He's supposed to be kind of
a mean bull, isn't he?
What are you going to do?
Kill him.
Worse.
Ahh!
Hi, Morrie.
Well, I might've known
it would be you.
And who's that laughing
hyena you got with you?
You better shut your mouth,
lawman, because if I put
some holes in you,
you're gonna sink quicker.
Word I get is you've been
busy lately.
That the way of it?
No, not really.
Actually, Dave and I were just
kinda passing by and figured
that we'd pay you a visit.
You know,
use the old facility.
Especially, as how I recollect
a few months back,
you tried to
freeze me out, Morrie.
We're standing here
to your own waste
and your own poo.
And far to say as being
froze out,
but it'll have to do
until next time.
The next time, it will be
when I catch you, Tracy
cause I swear, I will.
But I'll tell you something.
I ain't never seen
a dead lawman catch anything
but flies.
[gunshot].
Don't you ever do anything
like that when you're with me
again, you understand that?
I never drew down on a man
in my life
unless he had a fair chance.
Now put that
in your holster.
Put it away.
I'll tell you something.
How is it that
whenever a body needs
a photographer,
they never seem
to be around.
Well sir, what do you think?
Well, now Harry.
Somehow, I thought it'll be
a little bit bigger.
You figure?
What's the hell's the matter
with you, boy?
When we get to Portland,
they got banks,
and trains there too
and I got a young lady
with a smile.
Music.
I gotta get me
one of those
new pocket watches.
What are we gonna to do now?
Well, first off,
we're gonna find out
where she lives.
Then, maybe we rob a bank
and have some money. Okay?
I maybe taking my life
with my hand,
but let me ask
you something.
You gotta stream on.
If you don't know
where she lives,
what you gonna do, ask them?
I'm a sweetheart. Alright?
There's something special.
That's what screws up
people.
I mean, that don't reflect
good on earth, I'm wandering
around town and people
are thinking, Harry Tracy
is asking where she lives.
They got a phone company,
let's peek on their books.
Would you like
a ride down, sir?
No, no. Go ahead.
If you have the phone number,
If youthey'll give younumber,
the address.
If you have the address,
If ythey'll give youess,
the phone number.
If you don't have
either one,
they ain't going to give you
either one.
Pathetic.
Got a paper boy?
Yup.
What you want it for?
Two cents.
Atta, boy.
Thank you, sir.
Paper!
Listen to this.
Notorious desperado,
Harry Tracy held up
Youth County Bank
in Bellfoot South Dakota
on saturday making off
over 8,000
in hard currency.
What does it say about me?
Couldn't say.
Either one of us was there.
What's the matter with you?
Oh, I held that bank up.
Scary. Three years ago.
Alright.
But isn't this
how you get famous
isn't this you get
written up?
No, it isn't!
And I'm sick and tired
of people doing this to me
saying that I did things
for I never was.
I'm gonna to stop it.
What if Catherine heard
something like this?
What is she supposed
to think?
Officer, you don't know
a good lawyer in town,
do you?
Certainly, sir.
Raymond millhouse.
He's the best in state.
Where is he at?
He's just down the street.
Big bay window
is his office.
Some people say
he's gonna be
our next Governor.
Thank you.
Now then, just
what is it
that you wish me to do
about this, Mr. Tracy?
I want you to write out
a sworn statement
that I'm sitting right here
in your office,
in this chair this morning,
so as they'll all know
that there's no way
that I could've been
the one that razed that bank
back in Dakota.
Then I want you
to take this statment
down to the newspaper
and make sure
that they print it.
And you can say that I was
holding a gun on you
if you want.
But you're not holding
a gun on me, are you,
Mr. Tracy?
Well now, that could be
arranged big'o.
I'm taking a risk
coming here to you.
But then
I'm not running
for Governor, am i?
Folks around here are saying
that raymond millhouse
is gonna be
the next Governor.
Policeman told me that
down the street.
You need publicity.
You need money.
How much?
Well, there's a risk.
Beyond the matter
of compromising
my principles.
The cost would be
considerable.
Tell me,
is your reputation worth
that much to you, Mr. Tracy?
My reputation to me
is worth everything.
And I might add
a hell of a lot more
than yours will ever be
to you.
Now you just tell me
how much.
Ten thousand.
Are you asking me
for $10,000?
$10,000.
I, I don't have $10,000.
I got about
six-sixty five hundred.
Dave, loan me $3,500.
Hell, no.
Now, Harry, I'm not getting
involved in a fool play
like this.
Now, I'd like to see my name
in the papers.
It don't matter to me
whether I razed that bank
or not.
No!
Ten thousand, Mr. Tracy
or we have nothing more
to talk about.
Get your pen out.
Start swearing out
the statement.
I'll go down
and borrow the money.
Music.
Could you give me
a little bit more?
Atta, boy.
Get it.
Here you go, son.
Look, walk on that side
of the street.
I'll meet you at
the lawyer's office.
thI'm running away..
Hide it.
Hey, did you see that?
Music.
Follow the trolley
and you're not gonna
get hurt.
Come on, take this thing
around the corner.
Around the corner!
Alright, alright.
Whatever you say.
Catherine!
Catherine!
Catherine!
Cath-
Catherine!
Catherine!
Hold or I'll shoot!
Catherine!
Officer, i, I was just
chasing after the trolley.
Yeah, I waS...
On my way to make
a deposit.
That's him.
That's Harry Tracy.
Tell it to the judge.
Harry Tracy,
you are hereby sentenced
to 20 years confinement
in the state penitentiary.
David Felix Merill,
you are duly sentenced
to 13 years in the same
institution.
Did you hear, Mr. Tracy?
Yes, sir. I heard you.
I heard every word
you said.
I want you to know
it was my fault
that we got caught.
It wasn't this man's.
And I would also
like you to know
that it don't matter
whether you lock me up
for one day or 20 years.
It will all feel exactly
the same to me.
[gavel pounding].
[chains clinking].
[hammer pounding].
I'm up!
[hammer pounding].
[rumbling].
[thud].
Harry, these hands
are not doing much painting
anymore.
Have you noticed?
You haven't noticed.
You know why?
You son of-just because
of you I'm in here!
You are really pathetic,
David.
Hey, hey.
Yours is coming!
Music.
My love for you
is as wild and true
as the wind over the sea
on winter nights
so bleak and cold
it always will remain
on summer eves
when the breeze
whispers your name
like a star of this
I'll be singing
oh with you
I will spend every evening
and my love
like the light above
shall shine eternally
at the end of time
you'll still be mine
and I'll be here with thee
music.
[horse galloping].
How are you?
You finally got
the smell off,
did you, Morrie.
You did it coming here,
Harry.
What are you doing
around here?
I was out here on business
and I heard that nobody
comes to visit you
for a while
and I just thought
I'd pop in
and pay a little
social call.
Looks like
you've been doing
quite a bit of popping
on muffins.
Couple of lbs there
you stored down there.
Well, that's because
I haven't had you
to chase around
for the last 2 years,
Harry.
You're starting to look
a little bit
like an impregnated woman
there, Morrie.
What do you think?
I'm told you've been
acting a bit like woman
yourself lately,
haven't tried to break one.
When I break, Morrie,
I reckon you'll be the first
to know.
Yeah, I know.
I'd come running too.
And if I may,
you're gonna let up
until I kill you.
Morrie,
it's a pretty big word
for you. Kill.
You better be able
to back up what you say.
tYou know what I think,.
Morrie?
I think you better
make a wish.
[rumbling].
Wanna bust out?
I found that the warden
can be bought.
I told him we had 12,000
hidden in the woods.
Boy, he was caught.
And that we would be
more than glad
to give it to him
if he shoved us out.
All the way out.
See them pattern marks?
SeeThere's gonna berks?
two shotguns in.
When the warden comes by,
we can snip him up.
We'll take him out.
We'll strike him out.
Cleaning up here.
You'll have to bring me
some more.
Okay.
Don't think about it
too long.
Everybody knows Harry Tracy
can't be kept in a cage
like a common animal.
Me, I'm a painter, my talent,
I'm not dying here
in this sweatbox.
Come on, we got to do it.
I've been in here
long enough.
We'll go for it.
You're going to have
to bring me some more of this.
Sure.
Neither shotgun will have
live shells in them.
That way, once we get
in the yard, you and me
can drop down.
My men will get a clear shot
at Tracy.
Alright.
Just so as your men know
which side I'm on.
Sure.
And I get a pardon.
I get a full pardon.
It's already been arranged
with the new Governor.
You got my word.
That'll teach him
to run.
Visitor for Tracy.
Let's just tell the Marshall
I don't want to see him
again.
It's not the Marshall.
He didn't come along.
How's your family?
My mother's fine.
Judy got married
last spring.
Sh-she's very happy.
How about you,
are you happy?
Oh, I don't have any plans
to get married.
That'll be quite a while.
Why did you
come here?
I could ask you
why you came
to Portland.
But I think the reason
are the same.
The judge at your trial
is a known friend
of the family.
And I've been talking to him
about reducing your sentence
and I think
if you'll promise not to
attempt an escape...
Catherine,
please don't ask me
to do that.
I can't promise you that.
As soon as I see we're clear
I'm gone.
You onced promised me
that you will come
and see me.
I cross my heart.
[rumbling].
Drop your gun better
or they'll kill me .
Come on, let's go.
Come on.
Harry, the shotgun.
Use the shotgun.
It's better.
I got a rifle.
I don't need a shotgun.
Come on, the keys.
Hey, get the keys.
Open it up.
[keys jingling].
Get down. Both of you.
Step out of this joint,
you're both dead.
Don't fire!
They'll kill me!
Do whatever they say!
Go ahead shoot.
[gunshots].
Don't fire for god's sake!
They'll kill me!
Throw them down!
Throw your rifles down!
All of you! Come on!
Music.
Open it up.
Come on, come on.
[gate opens].
And we're headed
to the door
slowly, slowly, slowly,
slowly.
Open up.
[gate opens].
[keys jingling].
Spikey,
you knew you all the time!
[gunshot ].
Music.
with you, man?
We don't do things like that.
Music.
[gunshots].
Music.
[dogs barking].
Music.
Mrs. Tuttle!
Harry Tracy.
I just had to come
see her, ma'am.
I understand.
Have you eaten?
Come inside.
Really?
I always thought
that I liked it.
I'll buy me a house
and then paper swirls
with bank notes.
Then invite me a
banker over for dinner.
And I'd watch him choke
when he comes through
the door.
God, that would be worse
to him than paint the place
with his own blood.
Where did you get the money?
First stop
in the post office
yesterday.
You got to have work
around money nowadays.
It sure as hell
ain't that good
like the old days.
[horse trotting].
[horse snorting].
They said you escaped
with another man.
Where is he now?
Dave Merrill.
Yeah, he's...
A few miles from here,
in a graveyard.
He's dead?
[laughs].
He's a pretty
marginal fellow, David,
but he ain't dead.
You know graveyard's
a good place to hide out
because you'll never
look there if you're
going to take and find
anything alive.
[knocking].
The men are coming.
Music.
Get in the house.
Music.
You don't have the right
to enter our home this way.
Please leave at once.
Well, if you're not
hiding him,
I'm sure you won't mind us
looking around a bit.
He's absolutely right,
mother.
We have nothing to hide,
Marshall.
You're welcome to look.
Marshall!
Marshall, up here quick!
Music.
There he goes.
He's down on the ground!
He's there by the river!
Music.
[horse galloping].
Music.
[rifle cocking].
[horses galloping].
Come on, come on!
Oh!
[horse galloping].
[rifle cocking].
Cut the wire, son.
And get on down here.
What do you think?
Well, I think
you ought to button
your fly.
You go ahead
and put these clothes on
if you'd like to, son.
But I wouldn't recommend it.
But IWhy don't you taked it.
your wagon and go on home.
[rifle cocking].
And when you get there,
you tell your folks
that Tracy treated you
decently.
Cause you and I
both know, boy, that
I could put a bullet
right between
them crossed eyes,
couldn't I?
I'll tell them, Mr. Tracy.
Giddy up!
[horse snorting].
[horse trotting].
[coughs].
What the hell
is she doing here?
A present.
She got a gun.
We're not safe in these.
They're sniffing around
in these woods real hard.
So we're going to have
Sto move for a couplee
of hours.
Yeah, that's real smart.
If you let me drill him
when I had the chance,
we wouldn't have this problem.
We wouldn't see that warden
chasing us, do you?
Take the blanket.
Let's go.
[horse trotting].
Sit down a minute, Cate.
I'm okay.
It's alright.
Just take a rest.
Sit down right there.
Thank you.
Come on, Harry.
We gotta keep moving.
She's resting.
Resting?
What the hell?
Thanks.
Now, that's real touching.
I always knew you were
a gentleman, Harry.
You know when we share
everything-
Shut up!
We share everything.
Shut up!
She's with me.
I'll be right over here.
That's real good news.
[coughing].
Your friend
is really strange.
Don't worry about him.
He just shoots his mouth off
when he gets scared.
You are with me.
Do you understand that?
Dave?
What?
You want to talk
about this?
Talk about what?
Remember our old friend,
raymond millhouse,
the lawyer in Portland
we got messed up with?
I do.
He's the Governor
now, Dave.
I guess you already knew
that, didn't you?
I did not.
Really?
Did you read that?
What's it say?
Hmmm?
It says
you betrayed me, Dave.
That's what it says.
That you made a deal
with the warden to get me
killed and save your life.
That's why both of you
and the warden panicked
when I went for the rifle
instead of the scattered guns.
That's also why you shot him
before he had a chance
to open his mouth.
Ah, hell.
It's your fault
we got put in prison, Harry.
It's your fault.
You lost your nerve
in that bank raid.
I never lost my nerve.
I was chasing after
Catherine, you know it.
She was on a trolley,
I was trying to catch up
to it.
What the hells the matter
with you?
You never had any respect
for me as a man, Harry
or as his talent.
Ever!
You don't have
any talent, Dave.
People with talent got guts.
You got guts?
Then turn around and walk
10 paces that way.
I'll walk 10 paces this way.
We'll turn around and fire,
fair enough?
Well, you're such a gentleman.
How about 7?
Well, what about one Dave?
Well, wWould that be Dave?
a little better?
Oh, it's loaded. Believe me.
Not like the one
back at the pent.
Count them off.
[rifles cocked].
You're not even fit
to be an outlaw.
Count them off.
1, 2, 3...
Harry!
[gunshot].
Are you alright?
Catherine, are you alright?
We've got to still move
for a couple of hours
before you get down.
Can you do it?
You've gotta do it,
Catherine.
Come on, pick it up.
You'd think he could at least
get us 4 or 5 steps
before he tried something
like that.
Pathetic.
Music.
Could somebody lift
that blanket off his face
so I can get a true likeness
of this historic occurrence?
America will wanna know.
[camera flashes].
[horse snorting].
[train whistles].
[train engine roaring].
Harry!
Harry!
Harry!
Catherine, go home.
[train engine roaring].
You're wrong.
I'm not wrong.
You stay with me,
Yo they're gonna,,
hunt you down
like a dog.
And kill you the same.
Now, go home.
If you stop now,
they'll leave you alone.
Please!
Catherine.
Catherine, the newspaper said
that the Governor has sworn
to bring me down.
There's a 150 men
on the chore everyday
and more is coming
all the time.
Please, please go home.
I, I know
I know Harry
[train whistles].
Oh god!
Are you alright?
I want to come
with you, Harry.
Oh, Catherine.
Listen to me, please.
I want to come with you.
Just listen to me.
I'm wanted in six states,
dead or alive.
This time
it's gonna be dead,
Catherine.
They'll never put me
in another cage
and they'll never ever
gonna hang me.
[horse galloping].
When we were in a bunch,
we took an oath
that if anyone of us
were ever trapped or wounded
and couldn't see our way out
we do it ourselves.
Never let the law.
Not any of them
kept their vow.
But I can tell you
right now, Catherine,
that I'm gonna keep mine.
They'll never gonna take me.
Never!
They'll never
gonna find you.
We're gonna go.
some place safe
[gunshots].
Music.
That's Tracy
and his woman, alright.
He killed two of my men.
He's disappeared
like a puff of smoke.
[axe pounding].
[water splashing].
Slapping the old hog
ey, son?
You are Tracy!
Hey daddy, it's Tracy.
How are you doing?
I'm Harry Tracy.
This is Catherine.
Good afternoon.
Hello.
We'll move on along.
If you're worried
about the danger,
but, we sure
could use a meal.
Now, we insist on paying.
Well, I don't think
paying is the-
I read about you
in herald times.
Pa said I must've
read it a hundred times
already.
Well, look at this.
Three banks and a train
all in one day?
Huh, son, I never did
anything like that.
Didn't your pa tell you
that sometimes stories
in there ain't always
a hundred percent true?
Look at here
at the picture here.
Now, look at me.
Come on,
ain't I better looking
than him?
Yeah.
I'm Ely Porter.
I want you to meet
my wife Helen, my boy Matt,
and my girl, Glendoline.
You're welcome
to sit with us, sir.
Hey, Matt.
We won't have any trouble
paying for the food.
What we have
comes from the soil.
Thank you.
Won't you come in?
You'll be wanting
to wash up.
I think we both
like to wash.
You children stay outside
till I say.
No, no, ma'am.
That's okay.
Let them come on in.
We're gonna move
right along
as soon as we finish
eating
so as not to cause you
any problem.
Every couple of days
a new crowd comes busting
through here
asking if we've seen you.
Huffing and blowing
about how dangerous you are
to every man, woman
and child.
It's a lotta lie
more than I've ever known.
We won't.
We owe it, will we pa?
No, son.
That's between you,
the bank, and the railroad.
They never did anything
for folks like us.
They never will, Ely.
They will never do anything
for folks like you.
Catherine,
these are pretty much worn
but at least you'll have
a change of clothes.
- Oh, thank you very much.
- Good luck to you, Harry.
You've been very kind
to us. Thank you.
Boy, you know what that is?
Yes, sir.
What is it?
A bullet.
And where does it go?
In your gun.
Very good. You want it?
Yes, sir.
Go ahead
but don't ever say
that Harry Tracy
never gave you nothing, okay?
No, sir.
Okay.
You all make a wish now.
Music.
Where do we go from here?
Oh, reaching left to right,
they'll be expecting us
to go either into Canada
or to the ruse.
It's Nathan and his Indian
we got to worry about.
The Governor will be trying
to scrounge out every
lay about and glory secret
he could find.
They're more suited
to shoot each other
in cowardice than they are
at us.
You're the expert.
North or east?
What do you think?
I don't know.
Let's not do either.
Let's go northwest.
Music.
My goodness.
Is that not
the most beautiful thing
you've ever seen
in your life?
Yeah.
It always inspired me.
In the waters,
everything's a test.
Tell me something, Captain.
When you were a boy
did you always dream working
on boats like this?
Come to think of it,
suppose I did.
How about you?
I dreamed of being
an outlaw.
Yes, sir.
I dreamed of being
an outlaw.
Music.
Thank you again
for a wonderful day!
Welcome.
We enjoyed having you.
You take care
of each other now.
[horses galloping].
[laughing].
God damn it.
Hold it.
It tickles, hon.
Oh god,
I'm not gonna
lug you around all day.
My back is killing me.
My Hold your horses.e.
I got another one.
Oh god,
I hope you're gonna pay
for this ride
and maybe a fee.
But it sure as hell
ain't free.
How are you?
Fine.
This your patch?
We thought
probably it was wild.
We didn't see a house
around or anything. So...
Well, it was last year
when I bought the place.
Would you be
Harry Tracy?
All day.
This is Catherine.
My name is Eddie Hoyt.
Pleased to meet you, Eddie.
Shake my gun.
Yes, sir, Eddie.
It looks to me like you got
the makings of a real
fine place here.
It appears to me
like you've done a hell
lot of work for a man
all by himself.
It's hot, hon.
With that barn and all.
I was hoping to finish
that barn in the summer
but I ran out of money.
I'll have to wait
for spring now.
Well, we got plenty
of money.
We'd be glad
to give you enough
to make sure
you could get it finished.
Oh, I couldn't do that.
Oh,You don't know meat.
from a flat rock.
You got no call to be
helping me out
in that fashion.
No, I couldn't do that.
We've got no worthy use
for this, Eddie.
We're actually getting
a little tired
of dragging it all over
the countryside with this too.
Here, it's yours.
Come on.
Carry on.
Good.
Good heavens.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
It's yours.
Now, I'll tell you
what we're gonna do,
Catherine and I.
We're gonna stay here
and help you
till you get that barn
erected.
How's that?
All you got to do is
keep us in food
and real good coffee
and promise
no matter what,
you will tell no one
where we are.
Fair enough?
Oh yeah.
I wouldn't do that.
No, sir.
You're a good man, Eddie.
What do you think, Catherine?
Is that alright with you?
Yes.
Get going, boy.
I think we can trust him.
I mean he...
He's trusting us
with his place.
He leaves us off.
I love you, Harry Tracy.
Scoundrel and bad man
and all-around impostor.
Oh yeah, fooled me
for quite a while,
haven't you?
I love you too,
Catherine Tuttle,
shameless consort
of desperados.
Music.
Welcome back.
That's a heck of a load
of wood.
You know what we can do
first thing in the morning?
We're gonna put some posts
on that barn.
How's that?
Mighty fine.
Music.
[hammering].
Eddie,
just look out there
for a minute.
Don't turn around
but there's a bunch of men
coming up behind us
right now
and they got me
surrounded.
Oh my god.
I didn't do it.
I know.
What?
I know you didn't do it.
I know you didn't
say anything.
I'm gonna go down
real slow.
I want you to come
after me, slow.
Don't panic.
When we get on the ground
you're gonna grab Catherine
and take her into the shed
and keep her there
and you must promise me
you must keep her there
until all the shooting
is over.
Will you do that?
It's a promise.
I'm gonna go first.
Hammer.
Keep hammering.
[hammering].
[horses galloping].
Harry, what's wrong?
Eddie.
Harry?
Music.
[gunshots].
Hey, Morrie,
[gunshots].
Glad you could make it.
[gunshots].
That was an indication
to say I'm over here.
[gunshots].
You guys couldn't empty
our house if you were
sitting there
in your right mind.
[gunshots].
What's the matter?
I'd say the americans
are fantastic except for
Morrie's Indians!
[gunshots].
We got him, boys.
See that?
[yelling].
[gunshots].
I can't stop those morons
shooting.
But if you could talk him
out of that field
I can likely keep him alive.
That isn't what he wants.
Even you must understand
what he's doing, Marshall.
[gunshots].
[panting].
Catherine!
Catherine.
I'm here.
[panting].
Make a wish.
[gunshot].
Hold it.
Hold it.
That's good.
[chattering].
Music.
My love for you
is as wild and true
as the wind over the sea
on winter nights
so bleak and cold
it always will remain
on summer eves
when the breeze
whispers your name
like a star of this
I'll be singing
oh with you
I will spend every evening
and my love
like the light above
shall shine eternally
at the end of time
you'll still be mine
and I'll be here with thee
my love for you
is as wild and true
as the wind over the tide
as it travels 'round
this whole wide world
it gathers seeds of love
through desert sands
through snow and ice
and high up above
it gathers all
the thoughts
of lonely couples
until the cup of love
over bubbles
and with a song
it carries on
through the skies of blue
at the end of time
you'll still be mine
and I'll be here with you
my love for you
is as wild and true
as the wind over the sea
on winter nights
so bleak and cold
it always will remain
on summer eves
when the breeze
whispers your name
like a star of this
I'll be singing
oh if you ever spend
every evening
and my love
like the light above
shall shine eternally
at the end of time
you'll still be mine
and I'll be here with thee
