Barbarosa (1982) - full transcript
Karl Westover, an inexperienced farm boy, runs away after unintentionally killing a neighbor, whose family pursues him for vengeance. He meets Barbarosa, a gunman of near-mythical proportions, who is himself in danger from his father-in-law Don Braulio, a wealthy Mexican rancher. Don Braulio wants Barbarosa dead for marrying his daughter against the father's will. Barbarosa reluctantly takes the clumsy Karl on as a partner, as both of them look to survive the forces lining up against them.

I figured you'd get the idea it's time to get out.

Adios, farm boy.
Wait a minute.
Wait. Hey!
I sure didn't expect to see you back in that cantina.
Oh boy!!
Well - I get out here once or twice a year.

What do you steal?
Oh horses - cows.
Yeah?
Watch them rocks.
Okay.

- Except sheep -
I hate those god damned sheep.
You couldn't GIVE me one of those woolly bastards!
Me too! I --- I hate' em.
Well - you ever have any partners on this kind of stuff?
No, Thank You.
Well - I killed a man..
Well, that ain't no high recommendation.
Well, he was a great big son of a bitch.
He's twice as big as me.
Old Sam Colt makes everybody just about the same size.
Well, I hit him with a stick.
I didn't use no Colt.
He's my brother-in-law - God Damn It!
Is that the nature of your trouble back there?
Yes sir.
Them two have in their mind to kill me,
and their daddy'll see that they do.
That's why I'm here.
Whoa.

Your gun. You know how to use your gun?
Well --- oh
Damn.
Shoot.
It's got sand in it, sorry.
Only three things to remember...
One - You point it - like yous point'n your finger.

Like you was playing with your sore pecker.
You missed him..
I don't kill for amusement -- man or rabbit.
No sir.
What's three?
Three - Is you keep your feeted planted...
Till you done all the shoot'n you're gonna do.
Nothing makes a man more nervous
than to see somebody standing still...
When they ought to be runnin' like a spotted-ass ape.
Yes sir.
Well, I'll just follow your lead on that part of it.
Thank You
Not a problem.

I thought you...
"Watch It"
I thought you wanted to rob and pillage anyway.

the next time we go out to rob,
I'm gonna make the selections on to what to rob.
If I say we're gonna steal horses, we'll steal horses.
If I say we're gonna steal cows, we'll steal cows.
If I say we're gonna rob beehives, you get...
...your own little bee swatter, and you swat some bees.
If I say -
"Buenos D?as!"
You're on my road, amigos.
What are you doing on my road, huh?
I don't see no sign that says this is your road.
You see a sign, farm boy?
You ought to have a big sign up there says:
"THIS IS MY ROAD!"
Signs?
You know I have plenty of signs, just look around.
Maybe you just don't know who I am, huh?
Oh - I think I recognize you now.
You're Mr. Shit.
I'm ?ngel Morales.
You know who I am?
S? Se?or - I know who you are.
"Oh - We MAY BE in trouble."
"Barbarosa."
"Karl Westoff."

We found them on our path.
Oh - did that surprise you?
Stand up, farm boy.
"Barbarosa."
Well, I'll be damned!
It's them old people that yer so in love with.
Well I hope that makes you feel REAL bad...
to see all that Gold.
Amigo!
My mother says -

That's what the little son of a bitch did alright...
I was gonna rob your feeble old papa;
and shoot that squawking old woman over there!
You son of a Bitch!
