Cattle Annie and Little Britches (1981) - full transcript

In nineteenth century Oklahoma, two teen girls, fans of stories about outlaws, are on a quest to meet and join up with them. They find a shadow of a former gang and although disappointed, still try to help them escape from a vigorous Marshal.

Cattle Annie was an outlaw

with the dime novel dream

little britches

was the other half

of this godforsaken team

seeking romance and excitement

they stowed aboard a train

that was destined to be robbed

by the doolin-Dalton gang

little girls want outlaws

the good boys they can't stand

they want fun and adventure

of life with an outlaw man

little girls they want outlaws

not buttons or bows

they want shoot-outs

and the holdups

that an outlaw man controls

now ned buntline

wrote the stories

of the outlaws way out west

full of glamour and adventure

of men he thought he knew best

the daltons and theames gang

with old bill doolin too

they rode across the pages

shooting their way through

What's that?

You only got three cars?

You only got three cars?

Don't shoot! It's a small train.

Mainly full of...

Pigs!

That was your idea, creek.

Brilliant.

You're little dick raidler,

right?

Aw, hush up, grandpa,

this is a hold-up.

There's nothing but coffins

in there.

Dynamite dick! No, it

ain't dynamite dick.

It's goddamn

bittercreek newcomb.

Now, let's get on with

this thing, for Christ's sake!

Only three cars

in the whole train.

How many passengers are there?

Not many, you can see them

peeping out the back there.

- Get 'em out.

- Yes, sir.

Reveille, reveille, reveille.

Fall out down here!

Bill doolin!

Hold on there

a minute, commander!

I don't see any need for this, now

that everybody's been introduced.

Mr. Newcomb,

just slow down a minute,

we don't want anybody hurt.

Let's see if we can't salvage

what appears to be slim pickings.

Folks, bill doolin!

Bill doolin!

That's right, and you're, uh...

Oh, um... Harley Hopkins.

Great pleasure

to meet you, Mr. Hopkins.

And I can see by the way you brought

all these good folks front and center

that you're a born leader.

Are you an honest man?

- Oh, I am that if anything.

- Then tell me,

is there anything on this train

that might be of interest

to me and my men

and others of our ilk?

I swear, not a cent, bill.

What is this, a social?

I don't think you

are an honest man.

Who's in charge here?

Red, George,

search those people.

Hold it!

We'll not be picking

pockets now, will we?

No, not yet.

Red, George, check the last car.

Dynamite dick's checking it!

It's done, give me a hand, red.

What did you find?

- Damndest gear I ever saw.

- It looks heavy.

I'll take 'em anyway.

We never leave empty-handed.

Here's supper!

Thank you, Mr. Hopkins.

Sorry for your

trouble and your time.

But then life's nothing but

trouble and time, eh?

Let's get moving!

That was a pretty shabbyob.

You proud of yourself, newcomb?

Oh, shut up.

Let's get on out of here.

You allust go riding off like

that, but what about that fire?

That fire on the tracks, how

are we supposed to put it out?

Piss on it.

Well, let's round up those pigs.

Hey, get this door shut.

Stowaways! Mr. Hopkins!

Hey, you're not supposed

to be in here, now get off!

Hey! Hey, come on, now!

Mr. Hopkins, there's

a crazy lady in there.

- Enny!

- Hey, stop!

You lay a hand on US

and I'll scream.

We're bound for California.

Oh, you're bound

for California, huh?

Well, this train goes

another 50 mile,

that'll leave you 1,000 to go.

You can sprint the last leg.

We're working our way west!

All right, back with the

humans, you little mites.

Scoot. Up from

the engines with me.

You did it again!

You never give me a chance

to put the cold water in.

Hello, what's this? A spa?

You two are taking

to the waters, are you?

May I humbly request

that you get back to work?

- But...

- There'll be no "but's" here.

But Mr. Morgan,

she burned her hands!

Ah, now it's insolence, is it?

I mean, I've a full house out

there and now my scullery trash

wish to become insolent,

while me chinaust mounts up

like the tower of babel.

You clumsy little wench,

come here.

Tidy that.

Be some wages lost there for

sure, if I don't miss my guess.

Why you contemptible

little wench!

I'll have my pay!

- You what?

- And don'tust stand there

looking like

a moon-struck baboon either!

I'll have it now!

You owe me a week,

a quarter a day,

fair and square!

Now, you listen to me.

I'll teach you some manners.

Ow!

Ow! What are you doing?

You're fired!

The both of you, you're fired!

No, I ain't, you

scum-sucking son-of-a-bitch!

I have resigned!

Out! Out!

You ungrateful little wench!

Out that door!

I believe, sir, I shall depart

through the front portal!

- Come, enny.

- Oh, no.

You brats will not exit through

the front of my establishment!

- There are people out there!

- I andenny are people!

I'll give you “people.”

Annie!

You halt, sir.

If you wish to keep your nose!

We shall go now, enny,

have your head high!

Come on, enny!

Come on!

Hey, Annie, maybe we

shouldn't have done that!

It's done.

Annie, Morgan'll have the law on US

busting up his kitchen like that.

Good, I'm sick of this

damn town anyway.

It's time we got on west

like we planned.

How? What can we do?

I'll think of something.

- You always do.

- Let's smoke.

Oh, come on.

Ain't you got any money, cowboy?

Well, well, well!

What's you two big city belles

doing out this way?

Heard you were

standing stud, elrod.

And we'reust plum

out of breath getting here.

- What's she doing?

- Oh, no!

Look at that!

I'd have lit this on your

beard, elrod, if you had one.

Smoking in public! Look at her.

What's you two big-shots in the

restaurant business doing today?

- Thought you were supposed to be working.

- I resigned!

I've come to the conclusion

my future lies elsewhere!

Mine too!

I'll bet you all were fired.

Of course, I... l could use my

influence down at the mighty rz.

Oh, elrod, if you

weren't so dumb and ugly,

I wouldn't feel

so sorry for you.

I don't think I would talk.

I wouldn't even

ask you to dance.

Oh, elrod! You're such a man!

- You're loco as shit!

- Marry me! Marry me!

I'll have all

12 of your children,

and you can beat me when you get

drunk on your cowpuncher's pay!

You're crazy!

All right.

Good afternoon, my lovelies!

Love you, darling!

Oh, shut up,

let's try to look dignified.

What the hell is this?

It'sust the whole goddamn

doolin-Dalton gang.

Good day! Nice Autumn afternoon.

Don't let US stop you hard-working

people from your frolic.

Thought I knew some folks in

these parts, times do change.

Bill! Bill!

- Corey!

- Bill doolin!

We'll be

needing some things, Corey.

And set up all these good men

with some of your finest corn.

Not that swill

you sell the poor, but honest.

Come on, lads!

Cold beer, let's go!

First one's on me, I'm buying.

That's news. You ain't never

bought a drink in your life.

- Yes?

- Uh, this here is my boy, ned.

Ned, this is Mr. Bill doolin.

Iust wanted him

to meet you, sir.

Ned, well, you're looking fit.

How'd you like to meet my partner, Mr.

Dalton, if you've got the time?

Gentlemen!

Compliments of bill doolin!

Bill, thank you!

Where's all the pretty girls?

Come on, darling! Come over here!

Give US a dance! Goodness me!

Come on... please, I

don't want to dance.

I'm not going to hurt you...

I would love a...

Mister, would you

please leave me alone?

Hey, doolin! What's wrong

with these people?

We used to have friends

around here, Corey.

We've had warmer welcomes.

Well, so it goes. More and more

people are coming in here every day.

And the more people there are, the

less they be friends it seems.

Sounds ass-backwards,

but what don't these days?

Civilization's

coming here, bill,

be careful it don't get you.

Civilization, huh?

Well, let me tell you.

Civilization is gonna have to

getin line

behind all those

coming to get me.

I got heck Thomas, Chris madsen,

and old bill tilghman

on my big old butt!

Geez!

Well, i'llust

open up for you, bill.

Let me get you something

decent to drink.

Corey, you, uh...

You got some dead-weight

around here that can keep

two eyes open after sundown?

Shit! Getting cautious

in your old age.

Not much law here yet.

I haven't lived this long

listening to store keeps.

Hmm.

What about these young fools

lollygagging this way?

Hey, you dolts, here now!

Mr. Doolin wants to talk you,

hop to it!

You men know your butts

from a water hole?

I think so, sir.

You think so?

- Yes, sir.

- Well, for what I want,

I guess you don't

have to be too sure.

But if you mess up,

you'll find your butts

full of double-ought.

Now, let me tell you

what I want.

You, cover the road into town.

You two boys, cover

the road out of town.

You see any strangers, you

high-tail it back and let me know.

Corey's opening up. Now maybe

we can get a man's drink.

From Corey?

Jesus, that'll be a change!

I'll be seeing you.

Gonna stand watch.

Here you are, bill.

You, you know,

I always save these

just for you.

Jesus, Corey.

What the hell

do you call that, huh?

That's Irish whiskey. Does it

taste like Irish whiskey to you?

Made it in my own back room.

Hell, no!

Corey, here's the list

of the things we'll need.

Let me go!

Whoo, look it here! Fresh fish! Fresh fish!

Fire up the skillet, Corey!

Don't you lay a hand

on me again, buddy!

And what if I try to steal

a kiss from you, little girl?

I ain't a little girl!

Take one step toward me again

and I'll kick you in your eggs.

My what?

Your eggs!

I don't like

my eggs scrambled. No, ma'am!

Over easy, but not scrambled.

Uh-uh!

Annie!

Annie!

Well, little britches.

You must be the brains

of this gang,

seeing she's got all the brawn.

- Doolin.

- Mr. Doolin to you.

You're really Mr. Doolin.

Unfortunately, the one and only.

Corey.

Give these two ladies a root

beer and a sweet or two.

Here you are, little girl.

Oh, boy, that's what I'd like.

I'm gonna get me one of those.

What about you, red?

Don't want it?

- We'll have a whiskey.

- Oh!

- Oh, you will, will you?

- Is she crazy?

Will it be neat or branch?

I'll have whatever

the boys are having.

We ain't boys, little girl.

All right, ladies,

belly up to the bar.

You go a round with doolin,

we'll take you at your word.

- What's your name?

- Annie.

Annie. Little britches.

A toast!

May you ride long and hard.

Aye! Aye!

Little britches?

Mmm.

Oh, darling,

it's evil stuff. Evil stuff.

Relax a bit. There are two ways into

town and both of them are covered.

Iust don't know, bill.

I don't know.

Yeah, ease up, Dalton, you're

making me nervous.

Two dead brothers and one in the

pen and you say, "ease up"?

Just part of outlawing.

Hey, Corey!

Make sure you put a bag of

jawbreakers in that, okay?

I'll give you aawbreaker!

Yeah?

Crazy Pennsylvania cowpuncher.

Don't get kin to that, boy.

Hey, any of you gentlemen

have a smoke?

Smoking and drinking,

what's next?

First youust offer a piece

to the wind.

I've read all about you, fellas.

Through Mr. Ned buntline's

literary works.

I've followed all your deeds

of derring-do and bravery.

This ned buntline.

Now what the hell

does he know about US?

Everything, bill, everything!

Mr. Doolin! Riders, Mr. Doolin!

- How many?

- -Two I've seen, there's more!

Let's move. Let's get the hell out of here.

Annie, I feel sick.

Come on, boys,

let's not waste any time.

Geez, me flask.

Hey, you'd make a good outlaw.

All right.

Ride!

We shall follow! We shall!

Good evening, gentlemen.

Who is it?

Hey! You brought some

new blood with you.

I'm, uh, US marshal,

bill tilghman.

I wonder if any of you

kind folks have,

uh, seen, what I say, about,

a half a dozen gentlemen

ride this way recently?

Now, I'm not looking

for an informer.

Just a nod here

and there will do.

Right, let me tell you then

why I'm here.

I'm looking for

Mr. Bill doolin, to be exact.

Well, come on, folks,

he's no hero!

He robs banks!

In those banks is your money!

And who do you work for?

United States government.

If you see, uh, Mr. Doolin

before I do,

you can tell him that,

uh, I'm gonna get him.

I'm coming to get him

and get him I shall.

As those amongst you

who know me can believe...

You're getting a little old,

aren't you, bill tilghman,

to be running down the best?

He may be the best,

all the rest are dead.

But you can tell old doolin that

old tilghman is coming after him

and I'm gonna Bury his

calloused ass into the dirt!

Is that clear?

Our horses are dead tired,

so why don't youust

take 'em to the corral?

Yes, Mr. Tilghman.

Now, is there a gentleman

named Corey here about?

Here, sir.

Anything I can do for you gents?

Maybe.

Working my way, way out west

sail away, lady

sail away

sold my stuff and all the rest

sail away, lady

sail away

don't you rock him, daddy-o

all of our clothes

into our trunk

sail away, lady,

sail away

find me a bar and drink me drunk

sail away, lady

sail away

don't you rock 'em, daddy-oh-de

I when I find me an outlaw man

sail away, lady

sail away

sail away out to another land

sail away, lady

sail away

don't you rock 'em, daddy-oh-de!

Don't you rock 'em,

daddy-oh-de! >

What are those?

Damn buzzards!

We've got a pistol right here.

Who did you borrow

the pistol from?

A legacy from my dear,

dead daddy.

A hero of the confederate army!

A giant falsehood.

Your daddy died from the consumption,

as sure as mine died from drink.

So be it.

But a person can go a long

way out here with a pistol!

All this is wrong, Annie.

It's too soon to tell

what is right or wrong.

Are you with me or not?

I'll not be a white nigger slave

woman my whole life long!

I'd rather burn like a fire.

Are you with me?

I'm with you, Annie.

But I'm hot and tired

and we're out of water.

That will pass.

We'll ride hard now.

And live high later.

Bittercreek newcomb

would not lie to me.

Doolin will take US in.

- Enny?

- Hmm?

- Do you ever do it?

- Do what?

- You know what.

- Yeah, I know what.

And you know I haven't,

so why do you ask?

Sometimes people lie

about stuff like that.

Well, neither have I.

But I'm gonna do it with

bittercreek newcomb.

- Oh, Annie!

- It's in my mind.

Like a hot coal!

Really? Oh!

Come on.

Come on.

- Come on.

- Annie.

- What?

- You must not leave me.

I ain't gonna leave you.

Is that... is that...

Hey!

Is... bittercreek! Bittercreek!

You see, enny? I told you!

- Stand clear.

- No!

Offer some to the earth,

before you drink.

She'll always provide.

Dynamite!

You ought to see this.

Your half-breed pal's back.

He brought you something.

God damn it.

Now, that is an odd spectacle.

What do you boys make of that?

What you got there, bittercreek?

I believe we've all met before.

Ain't they them testy

Guthrie strumpets?

Put 'em in the shade,

get 'em some water.

What's this all about, breed?

Theyust want to consort

with some low-life.

Well, they sure chose well.

Now, suppose youust take

'em back where you got 'em.

You hear me, breed?

You got pig-shit for brains!

Two goddamn children.

Now, what the hell is this?

I don't know what this is. Used

to be a gang and a good one.

Now it'sust a bunch of

bums on the run.

You'd never say that to my

brother, Bob, and live to tell it.

Are you trying to imply, Mr.

Newcomb, that you got better ideas?

Robbing this train was your

thought, I let you have your way.

Maybe we can steal more

toys from tiny trains.

Is that your idea of brilliance?

And under your brilliance,

we've come to all this!

Iust got here.

I... iust got here.

And I tend to agree

with Mr. Newcomb.

These fellas

and these surroundings

are sore on the eyes

and do not doustice

to your reputation.

You, Mr. Dynamite dick,

as I recall,

you should either

grow the beard or shave!

What you got now is near

disgusting in appearance.

You girls look sorely beat.

Red, make a place

for them to rest. Use my bunk.

Morning, girls!

How about a cup of coffee?

You ought to be drinking milk.

Coffee will be fine.

You ladies like something a little

bit more solid in your guts?

Annie! Catch!

Jenny, it's a baseball!

Where did you get

all this stuff?

You mean you never heard of the

great baseball train robbery?

Hey, can you fellas

play this game?

There's not enough of US.

Rule book here says

you got to have nine.

The way I remember seeing the game

played back east, they used two teams.

That's right.

Look, I'll divide the team,

and then I'll explain

the particulars.

What the hell is that?

It's the goddamn first base.

Bill!

You're out,

you broke the whiskey bottle!

Maybe [I'll go in myself, upstream,

of course, from these louts.

Hey! Are you girls coming in?

In front of all these people?

Gentlemen, I believe the

ladies would like to bathe.

I don't trust 'em.

Make 'em close their eyes.

Hell, I can't get

most of 'em to keep 'em open.

However, Mr. Dalton

and I will become trees.

You girls may disrobe behind US.

Get back, raidler. There's

no looking at the ladies.

Mr. Weightman!

Mr. Buck, get back!

Get your ass back in there.

Let me know

when you're ready, girls.

"In front of everyone?"

- Everyone but bittercreek.

- Yeah, that's right.

Gentlemen, I say we'll ride.

And damn their eyes!

We'll ride with pride.

Empire city!

I sure as hell always

wanted to hit that bank!

It's two days' ride

to empire city.

We'll stop off at Ingalls tonight, where

it should be safe to leave the ladies.

Where's our littleenny?

Gone to bed the minute we

got to the boarding house.

This one's ready

to go with her, seems to me.

Hey there, Mr. Doolin.

Come meet the girls.

Evening, ladies.

Okay.

- Bittercreek!

- Get down!

Doolin!

Red, get around the back!

Dalton!

Damn, I hate getting up

early in the morning.

Jesus Christ, raidler!

This is no time to be

sitting on your ass!

- You all right, kid?

- Yeah.

Stay down low.

Annie!

- The girl's trying to kill me!

- Annie!

The gang's getting surrounded.

There's doolin! Go ahead.

God damn, what I'd give

for a stick of dynamite.

Come on!

Yeah!

Get out there! Get out there!

Get out!

Go!

That's it, come on,

let's get out.

Move! Move! Move!

George! George!

Come on! Come on!

Come on, let's go!

Bill tilghman.

How the hell did he

know about this place?

What's goin' on here?

- Anybody hurt?

- Uh-uh, nah.

Somebody fix up Annie.

Bill?

I'm afraid we got you

girls into some trouble.

But we'll get you out.

She got US out of this one.

That was a smart move

with them cattle, Annie.

How much longer

you figure we got?

We're five minutes late already.

Let's get moving!

Back to rock fort.

Annie, you forgot your bag!

Somebody put down

that poor horse.

That your horse, Annie?

Sort of.

Then you ride on out.

I'll do what's gotta be done.

No! I'll do what must be done!

Move out!

It seems to me

all the right words are getting

into all the wrong ears.

Hey, Dalton, that was great

support you gave bill back there.

Where'd you learn that, from

your brothers in poppyville?

Watch your mouth!

I think

you're losing it, doolin.

Christ, they know

every move we make!

Yeah, they sure as hell do!

And that is exactly

how my brothers got it!

A goddamn leak that got back...

Ah, for Christ's sake,

Dalton, you and your bloody...

All right, that's enough!

Well...

I say we lay up.

Well, it says here...

"But doolin has

an ironclad discipline

"and an almost

oriental-like concentration."

What the hell is this?

Let me see that!

The fantastic adventures

of the doolin-Dalton gang.

By ned buntline!

Here! Is my name in there?

Let me see!

Now, wait a minute!

Big bill tilghman...

Bigger and possibly

smarter than...

The aging bill doolin!

Shit!

Don't tear the bloody thing!

Aging bill doolin, my ass!

I'll show ned buntline

how my story ends!

The doolin-Dalton gang,

rides again!

What are you trying to prove?

My daddy once told me

about Saturday night.

He said, "go big or stay home!"

There'll be no

pig shit on this one.

How can you be

so sure about that?

Well, I'll tell you,

bittercreek.

I got an almost...

Oriental-like concentration!

Well, what's the plan?

Ah, the plan.

This time

it's gonna be different.

This time...

You'll all be dressed to the nines,

just as pretty as you please.

In suits and ties...

And we'll go strolling

through the town...

Like upright, honest citizens...

Out on a holiday.

- Little dicky raidler.

- Yes, sir!

I want you to go to Corey's

for some more supplies,

and whilst there...

I want you to purchase

two nice, snappy bonnets...

For the little girls.

You, red...

You'll put your big mouth

to use now!

You'll go into the town,

you'll spread the word...

That come Thursday,

Thursday next,

we're gonna take the train

with the big mine payroll.

Only we won't be there.

But, tilghman...

Tilghman will!

That'd make all

the papers back home.

All the big papers back east!

That's the spirit!

And, bittercreek...

You, along with weightman,

go to the old man

and bring back some

fresh horses.

We'll want the finest.

And the ladies...

Ah, yes, the ladies...

You'll be down at the creek, washing

and pounding our clothes...

So it'll be nice and clean

for the occasion.

You're all gonna lookust dandy!

Why'd you choose that stinkin'

breed to scout ahead?

Breed's half animal.

Can smell danger.

Hey, Annie, did you

hear what they said

about your precious

bittercreek, huh?

Ma'am.

Good morning.

I wish to withdraw some

money from your bank.

All of it.

Everybody on the floor!

No, no, no, dicky, no!

Stop! You there!

Out here.

Move!

Hey, you! Shaky!

Start putting something

green in the bag.

- There's no...

- Find some!

He's tryin' to tell you

we don't have any sacks.

Every bank has a sack!

I swear, we're fresh out.

Well...

Did any of you guys

bring a sack?

Nobody brought a sack.

All right...

Off with your pants.

- What?

- Off with your pants!

- What?

- Dead or alive!

Get them goddamn

clothes off right now!

All right, son...

Put the money on the counter.

Both drawers...

And don't move!

Nice work there, unior!

Now, let me have that watch!

Oh, come on!

Ooh, look at that.

Got oneust like Dalton!

Hogtie that boy!

Here come the girls.

I knew it!

I knew that son of a bitch

didn't like trains!

Good mornin', ladies.

Ooh, that went slicker

than a greased pig!

Good mornin', gentlemen!

Better stop there!

'Cause that's as far

as you're gonna go!

Who speaks?

US marshal, bill tilghman.

I've heard of you.

And I've heard you, too, sir.

What now, sir?

Well, if you're gonna walk

out of this town...

You're gonna have

to get by me first!

Everybody stay put!

Stay low.

Sit!

Goddamn shooting gallery!

Easy, George, easy.

Now, I'll tell you what

I want you to do!

I want you to walk towards

the middle of the street...

Keep your hands up

and keep 'em up high!

Get 'em!

Get down!

Stay down!

You all right, dicky?

Yeah. Itust grazed my boot.

That dumb asshole George...

He's dead.

Wait a minute!

I've got enough dynamite to blow

this whole goddamn town apart!

Yes, and US too!

Doolin!

You've got one minute to

come out with your hands up

or I'm gonna blow

the back of the bank off!

So far you done them two girls

and George a great service.

You got any moves left, old man?

Cut him loose.

- He's a deputy!

- Don't! We need him!

Cut the rope!

What's your name?

Capps!

Roger capps!

You a family man?

- Yeah.

- Then you ought to be selling shoes,

instead of playing parts

you ain't suited for.

Red!

Tilghman!

We've got your Roger capps!

And I would not like to be him!

Bill?

The people wanna see you hang!

And I shall see

that they're due!

Now, give up, bill!

All things come to an end!

You two stay put! Down!

Breed, get him up!

Get up, god damn it!

The rest of you men gather

around here, real close!

He's our ticket to safety.

Tilghman, we're coming out.

Hold your fire!

Give US a fair start

or you'll lose your man.

Can't do that, bill.

This ain't a game no more!

Blow it out your big fat ass,

bill tilghman!

What the hell's wrong

with you, bill doolin?

Shielding yourself

with two little girls!

Holding a man's life

to protect your own?

Do as they say, bill.

They know I'm the law!

Bill, please!

So be it.

All right, put your guns down

and keep 'em down!

Dynamite, raidler,

pick up George. Move!

Annie, enny, mount up!

Get on the damn horse!

Move capps out!

A man can see for miles

out there, tilghman...

I see one cloud of dust...

Your capps will die.

You ain't gonna kill that man,

bill doolin!

Red buck and dynamite will.

One wrong move, I'm gonna

send him home in an envelope.

It's on your head, bill.

Mornin!

What is this that I can see?

But icy fingers

taking hold of me

my name is death, none can excel

I hold the keys

to heaven or hell

oh, death

can you spare me

over for another year?

Oh, death, consider my age

please don't take me

at this stage

& my wealth is all

at your command

if you will move your icy hand &

bittercreek?

There's nothin' movin'.

We can let our Mr. Capps go now.

He can have a nice walk.

Come on, get!

Folks are sick and tired

of your kind, bill doolin.

You know that young fella,

at the bank?

The teller?

He's only been on theob

three months.

You know, the only valuable

he had was his watch.

And your man

raidler took it off him.

Why don't you leave US alone?

Mr. Capps, wait a minute!

Got the man's watch, dicky?

Just want to be punctual.

Give it to Mr. Capps.

Give it to him!

- Dynamite?

- Yes, sir?

Give him $50.

And buy Mr. Tilghman

and his boys a drink.

Or anyone else

we've inconvenienced.

Why don't you give him

something for widows

and orphans too

while you're at it?

Breed, the money is nothing!

Now, I'm tired and I'm weary

and we've lost a good friend.

So shut up!

Mr. Doolin?

Yes?

Don't go back to rock fort.

They know about it now.

Why are you telling me this?

I don't know.

I'm death,

I come to claim your soul

leave the body and leave it cold

drop the flesh off of your frame

the earth and worms

both have a claim

what is this that I can see?

These icy fingers

taking hold of me

my name is death, none can excel

I hold the keys

to heaven or hell &

we have some

friendsust up ahead.

We're all strung out

about as far as we can go.

The old man's hovel is nearby.

Goddamn weather

can't last forever!

Only three months. It's called

the rainy season, bill.

Your two gals will probably

catch their death of cold.

You girls all right?

I feel so bad that

George is dead, bill.

George was a good man!

Those aren't good men up there.

Well, they're good men, but...

But they aren't good men,

if you know what I...

In the end,

we ain't doin' right...

A good man does right.

You and Annie

should go your own way.

Quick as we can fix it,

little britches.

My name isenny!

Jenny, I'm gonna give you and

Annie some money right now!

And when we get

through this night...

You'll be off for something

more fitting.

It's gone.

All of it.

It's gone!

Bill?

Bill.

Thanks.

Well, enny...

Got any advice for this old man?

Mmm-mmm.

I never thought I'd live to see the

day I couldn't get some free advice.

This world of pissants

and grovelers

is about the only thing that people give

each other with no strings attached.

Here!

So I started taking.

Mmm.

In the long run, it evens out.

You wind up with a...

A mouthful of salt

and a handful of memories.

Better see what's

going on down there.

What are you thinking, enny?

That I love you.

But, uh, that I don't...

Love you.

There's a "but" to everything.

They're talking about

splitting up down there.

But you can still be brave...

And [I'll follow you

to the end, bill.

Little britches!

Well, Mr. Dalton...

What do you think?

Uh, I'm going back to politics

in California, bill.

I don't know why the hell I

ever left in the first place.

I think I'll go

on a vacation myself.

Tell me, breed...

Them hot Springs.

Old Indian folks say

they're rejuvenating.

Any truth to that?

So the legend goes...

You know that...

That all legends end in

bullshit, don't they, doolin?

Well, i'llust try and see

if this one works.

You coming back?

Yes, I'm coming back.

And when I do, we'll all be

of one mind now, won't we?

I don't know.

I'm with you, bill doolin.

Mr. Doolin, to you, kid.

Weust gonna let him leave?

Let him go.

I think he's through.

Yeah, we all through.

Whoa! Whoa! Ho, there!

A very good day

to you, Mr. Doolin.

It gladdens a man's soul to see a

free man out for a morning ride.

And where are you headed

all alone now?

Corey, I haven't lived this long idly

giving my destination to store keeps.

Yeah, but is

it livin', Mr. Doolin?

I hear you're a runnin' man

more than anything these days.

You tryin' to tell me

somethin, Corey?

Me?

Why, no, Mr. Doolin!

What could I tell you?

I'm only a store keep.

True.

Well, then,

top of the morning to you.

Hal

Bittercreek, are you

really an Indian?

When my family was killed,

and I was raised

with the sioux...

They had the great spirit,

but they, too, were dying.

But you have a...

You have a great spirit

in your life,

for... for your world.

You're as brave

and as strong as any of US.

Go to that world

of yours, Annie.

Afternoon, gents!

How's business?

God's business

is always good, my son.

What line are you in?

Fights, mostly.

Investments.

The same business

you fellas are in.

You ain't in business

no more, doolin.

Would you hand me

that towel, bill?

Now, where is he?

There!

You all right in there, bill?

Just fine.

No hard feelings?

It's been a grand chase.

It's him. That's bill doolin.

I told you!

Mr. Doolin, Mr. Doolin, Mr.

Doolin, your picture, please.

In front of city hall.

Marshal, get the prisoner out in

front of city hall for a picture.

Mr. Doolin, please.

A picture!

Could you hold his lapel

and point your gun at him?

Never mind the lapel stuff, ust take

a picture, son, and get it over with.

Could you raise his irons?

Please, Mr. Doolin.

I'm sorry about this, bill.

Why don't you smile,

bill doolin?

Doolin inail.

Jesus Christ! Why'd he have

to do that to US?

You allust gonna leave?

Just like that?

He'd be the first one

to say scat.

We've got to get him out!

There's 100 guns

around him now, Annie.

Isn't there something we can do?

You can go

in there and bust him out.

I'll read about it

in the papers.

Send you a postcard.

And you get caught,

you gonna get hung.

Not the time of year

for me to hang.

My pa's so busy with the harvest,

he couldn't Bury me for a while.

Is it all over, Annie?

Let's go home.

It's all gone bad with...

Killing and all.

I told you I'd never leave you.

But I'll leave you now.

Doolin heeds a friend!

And I'll be it if you one-way

son-of-a-bitches won't!

As friends you all

suck ditchwater!

Child, life ain't one

of your dime novels.

If you don't live it,

it ain't worth a dime, anyway!

Are you comin', enny?

I'd rather go down

with bill doolin

than scatter like a bunch

of cockroaches in the light!

You coming,

you blubbering little bitch?

Don't you call me a bitch!

You are about as tough as

a toad's belly, little girl!

Watch your mouth!

Run like a wimpy weasel

with the rest of them!

And stay off my goddamn horse!

Let's go.

Let's you and me get bill.

Better take old brownie with

you, she's packing some grub.

You all rode good and hard.

You all ride long and low.

And don't you come back until

you sell all them papers.

Paperboy!

Hey, you getting tired, breed?

Hey, breed, I'm coming with you!

On, hell!

Yahoo!

Hold up there, red fox,

I'm with you.

God damn it!

Come on!

You scared?

I was born scared.

You were born crazy

and nothing matters anyway.

Hey, fellas.

Please, officer,

we've got a customer in there.

Paper!

Well?

Mmm.

You got bill doolin in thisail?

Right behind two steel doors.

Now you two get your little

butts the hell out of the way!

Look, see, she's,

I mean, he's...

He's got a gun in that sack and we're

here to bust bill doolin outtaail.

Now, how the hell

are you gonna do that?

Well...

Annie here's gonna pull

out this gun of hers,

tell you to open those two steel doors

or she'll blow your brains out.

If you say you

don't believe her,

she'sust crazy enough

she mightust...

Blow your brains out, so...

Annie?

Let's get on with this thing,

pull the gun out!

You open those doors

or I'll blow your brains out!

What's going on here?

I believe her.

Don't the neither

of you make a sound

for I'm in the soup so deep, I

don't care what happens to me.

And as you can see,

I'm not very concerned

with what's gonna happen to you

if you don't do what Annie says.

Annie?

Right!

You're right!

You open those doors

now and lead US to doolin!

And if you do well...

You'll be here to read something

besides your obituary

in tomorrow's...

Tomorrow's

empire city herald examiner!

Now commence

the springing of bill doolin!

Well, open the cell!

Give me the other keys.

Get up, bill!

It's me andenny.

Wake up, damn it!

We ain't got all day!

Wait, hold it! Get the guns!

All right, easy does it.

Easy now.

Okay.

So...

Come to see old doolin,

have you?

Bring him out, boys.

Here you are, bill.

There they are.

The last of the doolin-Dalton gang,

they've come to bust you out, huh?

You're really scraping

the barrel, ain't you?

No.

They're two of the best.

Now, bill tilghman here,

he's a decent man.

Even though he's on

the wrong side of the law.

But he promised me that if he

ever caught up with you two...

He'd see you got a square deal.

Ain't that right, bill”?

Well, I'm a man of my word.

But what are you

gonna do with US?

Ah, well, if the...

- Where's your families?

- Where's your father, Annie?

Serving his third term

in the United States senate.

Enough, Annie.

We ain't got none, marshal.

Jenny's right.

Well, then, we may send you east to get the

idea of being an outlaw out of your heads!

What's it gonna be like...

Being inail back east?

Listen...

You're young.

Doolin and me...

We're old...

What I'm trying to say isust...

Don't waste your time

with old cowboys.

I'll never forget you two.

You're the only ones that came.

The gang!

The doolin-Dalton gang!

The doolin-Dalton gang!

Tilghman's back there!

- Come on, bill.

- Come on...

Come on, bill, go back home!

Oh, my god,
