- 00:01:11,921 --> 00:01:13,714
- He was growing into middle age...
- 3
- 00:01:13,882 --> 00:01:17,426
- and was living then in a bungalow
- on Woodland Avenue.
- 4
- 00:01:19,304 --> 00:01:21,513
- He installed himself in a rocking chair...
- 5
- 00:01:21,681 --> 00:01:23,765
- and smoked a cigar down
- in the evenings...
- 6
- 00:01:23,933 --> 00:01:26,852
- as his wife wiped her pink hands
- on an apron...
- 7
- 00:01:27,020 --> 00:01:30,189
- and reported happily
- on their two children.
- 8
- 00:01:36,112 --> 00:01:37,696
- His children knew his legs...
- 9
- 00:01:37,989 --> 00:01:41,200
- the sting of his mustache
- against their cheeks.
- 10
- 00:01:42,035 --> 00:01:47,206
- They didn't know how their father made
- his living or why they so often moved.
- 11
- 00:01:47,957 --> 00:01:50,834
- They didn't even know
- their father's name.
- 12
- 00:01:53,171 --> 00:01:57,007
- He was listed in the city directory
- as Thomas Howard.
- 13
- 00:01:57,300 --> 00:01:59,635
- And he went everywhere unrecognized...
- 14
- 00:01:59,802 --> 00:02:02,846
- and lunched with Kansas City
- shopkeepers and merchants...
- 15
- 00:02:03,389 --> 00:02:06,391
- calling himself a cattleman
- or a commodities investor...
- 16
- 00:02:07,310 --> 00:02:10,854
- someone rich and leisured
- who had the common touch.
- 17
- 00:02:13,983 --> 00:02:17,402
- He had two incompletely healed
- bullet holes in his chest...
- 18
- 00:02:17,570 --> 00:02:19,154
- and another in his thigh.
- 19
- 00:02:19,322 --> 00:02:21,823
- He was missing the nub
- of his left middle finger...
- 20
- 00:02:21,991 --> 00:02:25,244
- and was cautious,
- lest that mutilation be seen.
- 21
- 00:02:26,996 --> 00:02:30,749
- He also had a condition that was
- referred to as "granulated eyelids"...
- 22
- 00:02:30,917 --> 00:02:33,919
- and it caused him
- to blink more than usual...
- 23
- 00:02:34,671 --> 00:02:38,840
- as if he found creation
- slightly more than he could accept.
- 24
- 00:02:40,426 --> 00:02:43,011
- Rooms seemed hotter
- when he was in them.
- 25
- 00:02:43,513 --> 00:02:45,222
- Rains fell straighter.
- 26
- 00:02:45,848 --> 00:02:47,182
- Clocks slowed.
- 27
- 00:02:47,850 --> 00:02:50,102
- Sounds were amplified.
- 28
- 00:02:51,187 --> 00:02:54,022
- He considered himself
- a Southern loyalist and guerrilla...
- 29
- 00:02:54,190 --> 00:02:57,150
- in a Civil War that never ended.
- 30
- 00:02:57,318 --> 00:03:02,698
- He regretted neither his robberies,
- nor the 17 murders that he laid claim to.
- 31
- 00:03:09,247 --> 00:03:13,417
- He had seen another summer under
- in Kansas City, Missouri...
- 32
- 00:03:13,584 --> 00:03:17,879
- and on September 5th
- in the year 1881...
- 33
- 00:03:19,048 --> 00:03:21,717
- he was 34 years old.
- 34
- 00:03:28,558 --> 00:03:32,394
- You just... You just slide them things
- right in there, right in your sleeve...
- 35
- 00:03:32,562 --> 00:03:35,605
- and then, when you get ready,
- you just shake it out.
- 36
- 00:03:35,773 --> 00:03:38,108
- Like that, right there. You shake it out.
- 37
- 00:03:41,988 --> 00:03:45,657
- Mary Todd Lincoln, tyrant's wife, fall
- into hysterics when the moon was full.
- 38
- 00:03:45,825 --> 00:03:48,410
- President's men would tie her up
- with hay-baling wire...
- 39
- 00:03:48,578 --> 00:03:50,746
- keep her from ripping
- her husband's ears off.
- 40
- 00:03:50,913 --> 00:03:55,417
- You never heard word one about the wife of
- the Confederacy's Jefferson Davis, did you?
- 41
- 00:03:55,585 --> 00:03:56,918
- - I didn't.
- - No, you didn't.
- 42
- 00:03:57,670 --> 00:04:00,005
- He did his duty by her.
- 43
- 00:04:01,424 --> 00:04:04,926
- - Oh, my God, I'm speaking to children.
- - No, I get it, I get it, I get it.
- 44
- 00:04:05,094 --> 00:04:09,264
- The president of the Confederacy discerned
- his wife's needs and satisfied them...
- 45
- 00:04:09,599 --> 00:04:14,102
- with the utmost skill
- and the utmost courtesy.
- 46
- 00:04:15,897 --> 00:04:19,358
- - Charley, you spit all over my boot.
- - Sorry. Sorry, sorry, Jesse.
- 47
- 00:04:19,984 --> 00:04:22,486
- - Here, get it off.
- - I'll wipe it... I'll wipe it off.
- 48
- 00:04:23,446 --> 00:04:27,032
- But Abraham Lincoln probably sent his wife
- on a shopping expedition.
- 49
- 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,952
- - A three-act play.
- - With money stole from us.
- 50
- 00:04:32,038 --> 00:04:33,955
- Chow!
- 51
- 00:04:36,793 --> 00:04:39,795
- I think insanity run on both sides
- of that Lincoln family.
- 52
- 00:04:39,962 --> 00:04:41,880
- You're right about that.
- 53
- 00:04:42,048 --> 00:04:44,633
- The river... You jump in the river.
- 54
- 00:04:47,136 --> 00:04:50,180
- - Chow!
- - Don't be shy now, Dick.
- 55
- 00:04:50,473 --> 00:04:52,808
- - One more piece of meat.
- - When you diddle a lot...
- 56
- 00:04:52,975 --> 00:04:55,477
- There's a good piece of bacon fat
- in there for him.
- 57
- 00:05:30,847 --> 00:05:32,431
- Excuse me.
- 58
- 00:05:32,974 --> 00:05:36,560
- I see I've traipsed right on in
- and interrupted you.
- 59
- 00:05:38,896 --> 00:05:40,605
- Who are you, then?
- 60
- 00:05:41,232 --> 00:05:43,108
- Bob Ford.
- 61
- 00:05:44,527 --> 00:05:45,735
- Charley's brother?
- 62
- 00:05:47,196 --> 00:05:48,613
- Yeah.
- 63
- 00:06:02,753 --> 00:06:05,964
- I was lying when I said
- I just happened down here.
- 64
- 00:06:06,132 --> 00:06:10,385
- I've been looking for you. I feel lousy
- I didn't say so at the outset.
- 65
- 00:06:12,972 --> 00:06:14,556
- Folks take me for a nincompoop...
- 66
- 00:06:14,724 --> 00:06:18,477
- on account of the shabby first impression
- I make, whereas I think of myself...
- 67
- 00:06:18,644 --> 00:06:21,062
- as being just a rung down
- from the James brothers.
- 68
- 00:06:21,981 --> 00:06:24,900
- I was hoping if I ran into you
- aside from those peckerwoods...
- 69
- 00:06:25,067 --> 00:06:29,154
- I could show you how special I am.
- 70
- 00:06:40,583 --> 00:06:44,586
- I honestly believe I'm destined
- for great things, Mr. James.
- 71
- 00:06:44,754 --> 00:06:49,090
- I got qualities that don't come shining
- through right at the outset.
- 72
- 00:06:51,761 --> 00:06:54,930
- You give me a chance, I'll get
- the job done. I guarantee you that.
- 73
- 00:07:00,186 --> 00:07:02,437
- Hey, Dick, is it true you diddled a squaw?
- 74
- 00:07:04,690 --> 00:07:08,944
- Come on, you can tell me. I've always
- wanted to lay down with a redskin.
- 75
- 00:07:09,487 --> 00:07:10,946
- Well, Charley...
- 76
- 00:07:12,406 --> 00:07:15,825
- there's a feeling that comes over you...
- 77
- 00:07:15,993 --> 00:07:19,663
- getting inside a woman whose hands
- has scalped a congregation.
- 78
- 00:07:19,830 --> 00:07:22,666
- There's this thunderous sound
- that comes from their cooch...
- 79
- 00:07:22,833 --> 00:07:26,127
- on account of the fact that
- they birth a child standing upright...
- 80
- 00:07:26,295 --> 00:07:29,297
- like a wild animal.
- - What's it sound like?
- 81
- 00:07:29,465 --> 00:07:33,718
- Whatever a thunderous cooch sounds like
- there, Charley. I don't know.
- 82
- 00:07:34,303 --> 00:07:35,720
- No.
- 83
- 00:07:35,888 --> 00:07:38,306
- They got a noisy quim
- on account of the fact that...
- 84
- 00:07:38,474 --> 00:07:43,353
- they use their cunnis as a saddlebag
- to carry sundries across the plains.
- 85
- 00:07:44,730 --> 00:07:47,440
- Come on, what'd it really feel like?
- Did it feel good?
- 86
- 00:07:47,608 --> 00:07:49,985
- Come on, fess up, now.
- 87
- 00:07:50,152 --> 00:07:52,070
- I like you, Charley.
- 88
- 00:07:53,489 --> 00:07:55,657
- I like you too, Charley.
- 89
- 00:07:56,117 --> 00:07:57,158
- Well...
- 90
- 00:07:59,161 --> 00:08:01,162
- You're not so special, Mr. Ford.
- 91
- 00:08:02,164 --> 00:08:06,042
- You're just like any other tyro
- who's prinked himself up for an escapade.
- 92
- 00:08:06,210 --> 00:08:10,046
- Hoping to be a gunslinger
- like them nickel books are about.
- 93
- 00:08:11,048 --> 00:08:13,925
- You may as well quench your mind of it...
- 94
- 00:08:15,177 --> 00:08:18,179
- because you don't have
- the ingredients, son.
- 95
- 00:08:33,404 --> 00:08:35,739
- Well, I'm sorry to hear
- you feel that way...
- 96
- 00:08:35,906 --> 00:08:39,117
- as I put such stock
- in your opinions.
- 97
- 00:08:44,290 --> 00:08:48,376
- As for me being a gunslinger, I've just got
- this one granddaddy Paterson Colt...
- 98
- 00:08:48,544 --> 00:08:51,046
- and a borrowed belt to stick it in.
- 99
- 00:08:51,213 --> 00:08:54,549
- But I also got an appetite
- for greater things.
- 100
- 00:08:57,762 --> 00:09:01,806
- I hoped by joining up with you, it'd put me
- that much closer to getting them.
- 101
- 00:09:05,227 --> 00:09:07,395
- Well, what am I supposed to say to that?
- 102
- 00:09:09,732 --> 00:09:11,441
- Let me be your sidekick tonight.
- 103
- 00:09:11,609 --> 00:09:12,734
- Sidekick?
- 104
- 00:09:12,902 --> 00:09:15,070
- So you can examine my grit
- and intelligence.
- 105
- 00:09:15,237 --> 00:09:16,905
- I don't know what it is about you...
- 106
- 00:09:17,073 --> 00:09:20,158
- but the more you talk,
- the more you give me the willies.
- 107
- 00:09:20,576 --> 00:09:24,245
- Now, I don't believe I want you anywhere
- within earshot this evening, okay?
- 108
- 00:09:24,413 --> 00:09:25,914
- You understand?
- 109
- 00:09:30,086 --> 00:09:33,421
- - Well, I'm sorry...
- - Why don't you just get now? Scat.
- 110
- 00:09:39,595 --> 00:09:40,720
- All right.
- 111
- 00:09:43,432 --> 00:09:47,018
- I was with a girl once, wasn't a squaw.
- 112
- 00:09:47,186 --> 00:09:49,062
- But she was pretty.
- 113
- 00:09:49,438 --> 00:09:53,775
- She had yellow hair like a...
- 114
- 00:09:55,486 --> 00:09:57,362
- Oh, like something.
- 115
- 00:09:57,613 --> 00:10:00,490
- Like hair bobbed from a ray of sunlight?
- 116
- 00:10:00,658 --> 00:10:03,618
- Yeah. Yeah, like that.
- 117
- 00:10:04,286 --> 00:10:06,955
- Boy, you... You talk good.
- 118
- 00:10:07,123 --> 00:10:09,791
- You can hide things in vocabulary.
- 119
- 00:10:11,794 --> 00:10:16,339
- Maybe you and me could write her a note,
- send it by post?
- 120
- 00:10:16,507 --> 00:10:18,216
- See, all you gotta do, Ed...
- 121
- 00:10:18,384 --> 00:10:21,678
- is predict her needs
- and beat her to the punch.
- 122
- 00:10:23,347 --> 00:10:27,642
- Well, this girl, she has
- a real specific job.
- 123
- 00:10:28,227 --> 00:10:30,729
- - Specific?
- - We was only together once.
- 124
- 00:10:30,896 --> 00:10:32,147
- She...
- 125
- 00:10:32,815 --> 00:10:37,402
- She was afraid of lightning,
- and she came up under the wagon and...
- 126
- 00:10:37,570 --> 00:10:40,488
- just cuddled right up to me.
- 127
- 00:10:40,656 --> 00:10:42,657
- She give me a kind price, too.
- 128
- 00:10:44,660 --> 00:10:48,705
- Well, I'll be. That is specific.
- 129
- 00:10:51,417 --> 00:10:53,710
- Yeah, sure,
- she'd been with other people...
- 130
- 00:10:53,878 --> 00:10:55,962
- but the kind of things she said to me...
- 131
- 00:10:56,130 --> 00:10:59,257
- people just don't say
- unless they really mean it.
- 132
- 00:11:00,176 --> 00:11:02,510
- My love said she would marry only me
- 133
- 00:11:03,345 --> 00:11:06,389
- And Jove himself could not make her care.
- 134
- 00:11:06,557 --> 00:11:09,184
- For what women say to lovers, you'll agree
- 135
- 00:11:09,351 --> 00:11:13,438
- One writes on running water or on air.
- 136
- 00:11:14,899 --> 00:11:18,526
- My God, that's good.
- Let's write her that.
- 137
- 00:11:19,528 --> 00:11:21,154
- No.
- 138
- 00:11:21,447 --> 00:11:23,865
- Poetry don't work on whores.
- 139
- 00:11:27,453 --> 00:11:29,037
- How do you do?
- 140
- 00:11:31,415 --> 00:11:33,541
- Am I too late
- to wish you a happy birthday?
- 141
- 00:11:36,086 --> 00:11:37,378
- How'd you know?
- 142
- 00:11:37,922 --> 00:11:40,215
- You'd be surprised
- at what I got stored away.
- 143
- 00:11:40,382 --> 00:11:42,967
- I'm an authority on the James boys.
- 144
- 00:11:43,135 --> 00:11:44,594
- Is you?
- 145
- 00:11:46,305 --> 00:11:50,850
- Well... Well, your brother Frank and I,
- we just had a real nice visit.
- 146
- 00:11:51,018 --> 00:11:55,188
- Just chit-chatting about this and that,
- right over there.
- 147
- 00:11:55,564 --> 00:11:58,483
- And must've been a hundred subjects
- entertained...
- 148
- 00:11:58,651 --> 00:12:01,027
- Good Lord, you know
- what this stew needs?
- 149
- 00:12:05,699 --> 00:12:07,325
- Dumplings?
- 150
- 00:12:07,493 --> 00:12:09,244
- Noodles.
- 151
- 00:12:09,620 --> 00:12:12,997
- You eat yourself some noodle stew
- and your clock'll tick all night.
- 152
- 00:12:13,165 --> 00:12:17,043
- You ever see that woman up in Fayette?
- Suck noodles up her nose.
- 153
- 00:12:18,921 --> 00:12:20,588
- - In Fayette?
- - I don't believe I have.
- 154
- 00:12:20,756 --> 00:12:23,091
- You never heard of her, huh?
- 155
- 00:12:23,926 --> 00:12:26,594
- She got canals up there
- you never dreamed of.
- 156
- 00:12:30,766 --> 00:12:32,475
- I don't like to harp on a subject...
- 157
- 00:12:32,643 --> 00:12:35,270
- I don't care who comes with me.
- Never have.
- 158
- 00:12:35,437 --> 00:12:38,022
- That's why they call me gregarious.
- 159
- 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,652
- I hear you and young Stovepipe here
- had a real nice visit.
- 160
- 00:12:43,112 --> 00:12:47,156
- Your boys have got about a acre
- of lumber to haul, dingus.
- 161
- 00:12:47,533 --> 00:12:49,826
- You better goose them down yonder.
- 162
- 00:13:00,045 --> 00:13:04,299
- The James Gang committed over 25 bank,
- train and stagecoach robberies...
- 163
- 00:13:04,466 --> 00:13:07,886
- from 1867 to 1881.
- 164
- 00:13:08,804 --> 00:13:10,847
- But except for Frank and Jesse James...
- 165
- 00:13:11,015 --> 00:13:15,143
- all the original members
- were now either dead or in prison.
- 166
- 00:13:15,477 --> 00:13:20,148
- - mine eye
- All my soul and all my every part
- 167
- 00:13:21,025 --> 00:13:23,818
- And for this sin, there is no remedy
- 168
- 00:13:24,570 --> 00:13:27,322
- It is so grounded inward in my heart.
- 169
- 00:13:27,489 --> 00:13:29,824
- So for their last robbery at Blue Cut...
- 170
- 00:13:29,992 --> 00:13:33,578
- the brothers recruited a gang
- of petty thieves and country rubes...
- 171
- 00:13:33,746 --> 00:13:36,414
- culled from the local hillsides.
- 172
- 00:14:52,241 --> 00:14:54,450
- Right on schedule, Buck!
- 173
- 00:14:57,121 --> 00:14:59,205
- Snuff those lanterns!
- 174
- 00:14:59,373 --> 00:15:03,167
- Look at those fools. They're gonna trip
- and shoot each other into females.
- 175
- 00:15:03,335 --> 00:15:06,462
- I bet you I could find them husbands
- if they do.
- 176
- 00:16:52,027 --> 00:16:53,069
- Fan out!
- 177
- 00:16:56,573 --> 00:16:58,533
- Hold your fire!
- 178
- 00:17:01,495 --> 00:17:02,703
- - Watch him!
- - Going down.
- 179
- 00:17:16,426 --> 00:17:18,469
- Hold your fire, you idiots!
- 180
- 00:17:19,638 --> 00:17:21,722
- Hold your fire!
- 181
- 00:17:31,817 --> 00:17:33,568
- Let me in.
- 182
- 00:17:34,236 --> 00:17:36,112
- Buck! Boys!
- 183
- 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,364
- Buck, this way!
- 184
- 00:17:39,241 --> 00:17:41,659
- Do you think that lock will hold?
- 185
- 00:17:43,245 --> 00:17:44,912
- No, I don't.
- 186
- 00:17:45,247 --> 00:17:47,331
- Let's go, let's go.
- 187
- 00:17:59,553 --> 00:18:02,930
- Let's not get clever, nor courageous,
- any of you.
- 188
- 00:18:15,319 --> 00:18:18,529
- Hey there, boys!
- These all for me?
- 189
- 00:18:21,366 --> 00:18:23,784
- Looks like Christmas morning in here.
- 190
- 00:18:25,621 --> 00:18:27,246
- Hey, friend.
- 191
- 00:18:28,749 --> 00:18:30,750
- You mind if I have a peek around?
- 192
- 00:18:31,126 --> 00:18:33,377
- This shit. Nope.
- 193
- 00:18:35,172 --> 00:18:36,464
- Nope.
- 194
- 00:18:38,175 --> 00:18:39,467
- You got anything good here?
- 195
- 00:18:40,344 --> 00:18:41,802
- Could be.
- 196
- 00:18:56,568 --> 00:18:58,486
- Open that safe.
- 197
- 00:19:03,825 --> 00:19:05,409
- Do it!
- 198
- 00:19:08,914 --> 00:19:11,999
- - You didn't have to bop him.
- - Yeah, he did. They needed convincing.
- 199
- 00:19:12,167 --> 00:19:14,627
- They got their company rules,
- I got my mean streak...
- 200
- 00:19:14,795 --> 00:19:17,296
- and that's how
- we get things done around here.
- 201
- 00:19:18,382 --> 00:19:22,093
- - Get on over here and attend to this thing.
- - Come on, go.
- 202
- 00:19:26,223 --> 00:19:29,100
- Hold your fire, you idiots!
- 203
- 00:19:29,518 --> 00:19:31,352
- Dig deeper.
- 204
- 00:19:33,605 --> 00:19:36,274
- - Come on!
- - Give me your money.
- 205
- 00:19:36,441 --> 00:19:39,360
- - And you, stand up.
- - Let's see your hands.
- 206
- 00:19:39,528 --> 00:19:41,279
- What have you got?
- 207
- 00:19:42,948 --> 00:19:44,782
- Speak English.
- 208
- 00:19:46,076 --> 00:19:49,495
- Money. Money. You understand that?
- 209
- 00:19:51,039 --> 00:19:52,540
- Give me your money!
- 210
- 00:20:01,967 --> 00:20:03,884
- There's some receipts.
- 211
- 00:20:05,595 --> 00:20:07,513
- I got fives.
- 212
- 00:20:08,557 --> 00:20:11,517
- Jesse. Jesse.
- 213
- 00:20:14,980 --> 00:20:16,814
- Don't look good.
- 214
- 00:20:22,112 --> 00:20:25,406
- There ain't no 100,000 dollars
- in here, Dick.
- 215
- 00:20:34,291 --> 00:20:35,875
- Get down on your knees.
- 216
- 00:20:37,085 --> 00:20:38,586
- Why?
- 217
- 00:20:38,754 --> 00:20:40,338
- Well, you ought to pray.
- 218
- 00:20:41,673 --> 00:20:42,715
- I'm gonna kill you.
- 219
- 00:20:49,389 --> 00:20:51,140
- Get at!
- 220
- 00:20:53,935 --> 00:20:55,770
- You're gonna have to make me.
- 221
- 00:20:59,024 --> 00:21:00,691
- All right.
- 222
- 00:21:26,259 --> 00:21:30,388
- Don't shoot him! No, don't shoot him.
- 223
- 00:21:42,067 --> 00:21:45,319
- Don't tell me what I can
- and cannot do, Ed.
- 224
- 00:21:49,157 --> 00:21:51,117
- Round them up!
- 225
- 00:22:14,182 --> 00:22:18,018
- Chicago newspaper publishers made a great
- deal of the Blue Cut train robbery...
- 226
- 00:22:18,186 --> 00:22:20,187
- alleging that in no state
- but Missouri...
- 227
- 00:22:20,355 --> 00:22:23,858
- would the James brothers be tolerated
- for 12 years.
- 228
- 00:22:24,443 --> 00:22:25,860
- Hey.
- 229
- 00:22:27,279 --> 00:22:29,613
- Can you keep a secret?
- 230
- 00:22:30,740 --> 00:22:33,367
- It depends on what you're concealing.
- 231
- 00:22:34,703 --> 00:22:36,871
- You afraid of the dark?
- 232
- 00:22:37,747 --> 00:22:39,290
- No.
- 233
- 00:22:39,708 --> 00:22:41,876
- You superstitious?
- 234
- 00:22:44,212 --> 00:22:49,258
- I put... I put an acorn in the window
- to keep the lightning out.
- 235
- 00:23:37,766 --> 00:23:42,436
- Kid, you must've crept up on cat's paws.
- 236
- 00:23:43,355 --> 00:23:46,774
- I'll wager that's the first and last time
- you'll ever be caught off-guard.
- 237
- 00:23:50,070 --> 00:23:51,111
- How old are you?
- 238
- 00:23:52,531 --> 00:23:53,948
- Twenty.
- 239
- 00:23:56,660 --> 00:24:00,329
- Except, well, I guess I won't
- really be 20 till...
- 240
- 00:24:00,830 --> 00:24:02,998
- Till January, so...
- 241
- 00:24:03,833 --> 00:24:05,709
- I'm 19.
- 242
- 00:24:08,129 --> 00:24:11,298
- Yeah, you feel older than that, though,
- don't you?
- 243
- 00:24:15,971 --> 00:24:17,846
- Yeah, I do.
- 244
- 00:24:30,819 --> 00:24:35,155
- Hey, Frank, you...
- You think the sheriff's out already?
- 245
- 00:24:36,741 --> 00:24:39,910
- - More than likely.
- - Yeah.
- 246
- 00:24:42,831 --> 00:24:44,665
- I had a real fine time tonight.
- 247
- 00:24:44,833 --> 00:24:48,043
- - You think so?
- - Yup. Yeah.
- 248
- 00:24:48,211 --> 00:24:51,380
- Hey, I wasn't just flapping my lips
- about my kid brother and me.
- 249
- 00:24:51,756 --> 00:24:56,343
- What I figured was if you and Jesse could
- gauge our courage and our daring...
- 250
- 00:24:56,511 --> 00:24:58,762
- you might just make us
- your regular sidekicks.
- 251
- 00:24:58,930 --> 00:25:01,181
- Your courage and your daring.
- 252
- 00:25:02,434 --> 00:25:07,521
- I about heard all I want to about sidekicks.
- You sound like your damn brother.
- 253
- 00:25:07,689 --> 00:25:12,192
- Yeah. Well, I'll be square with you,
- it's Bob who put me up to it. He's...
- 254
- 00:25:12,736 --> 00:25:16,030
- He's got plans for the James boys
- I can't even get the hang of.
- 255
- 00:25:16,197 --> 00:25:18,032
- - They're that complicated.
- - Yeah?
- 256
- 00:25:19,075 --> 00:25:21,744
- Well, you can just
- get shed of that idea.
- 257
- 00:25:21,911 --> 00:25:24,455
- Because after tonight,
- there'll be no more shenanigans.
- 258
- 00:25:25,123 --> 00:25:27,958
- You can jot that down in your little diary.
- 259
- 00:25:28,126 --> 00:25:32,880
- September 7th, 1881, the James Gang
- robbed one last train at Blue Cut...
- 260
- 00:25:33,048 --> 00:25:35,549
- and gave up their nightriding for good.
- 261
- 00:25:42,223 --> 00:25:43,724
- Wait.
- 262
- 00:25:45,310 --> 00:25:47,853
- Well, how are you gonna
- make your living?
- 263
- 00:25:52,776 --> 00:25:55,194
- Maybe I'll sell shoes.
- 264
- 00:26:04,996 --> 00:26:07,081
- I can't believe I woke up this morning...
- 265
- 00:26:07,248 --> 00:26:10,584
- wondering if my daddy
- would loan me his overcoat...
- 266
- 00:26:10,752 --> 00:26:12,586
- and here it is just past midnight...
- 267
- 00:26:12,754 --> 00:26:16,340
- l've already robbed a railroad train
- and I'm sitting in a rocking chair...
- 268
- 00:26:16,508 --> 00:26:18,759
- chatting with none other
- than Jesse James.
- 269
- 00:26:19,469 --> 00:26:22,096
- Yeah, it's a wonderful world.
- 270
- 00:26:30,522 --> 00:26:32,356
- What's this?
- 271
- 00:26:32,565 --> 00:26:34,274
- Oh, yeah.
- 272
- 00:26:35,443 --> 00:26:39,488
- I was real agitated this morning, so I was
- wondering if I would know you or Frank...
- 273
- 00:26:39,656 --> 00:26:44,785
- tell you all apart, and so I had
- this clipping that described you both.
- 274
- 00:26:45,286 --> 00:26:47,037
- Want me to read it?
- 275
- 00:26:47,622 --> 00:26:48,789
- Go on.
- 276
- 00:26:48,957 --> 00:26:53,085
- Well... I gotta find it. Hold on.
- 277
- 00:26:53,962 --> 00:26:56,213
- Here. Here.
- 278
- 00:26:56,381 --> 00:27:00,509
- "Jesse James, the youngest, has a face
- as smooth and innocent as a schoolgirl.
- 279
- 00:27:00,677 --> 00:27:05,055
- The blue eyes, very clear and penetrating,
- are never at rest.
- 280
- 00:27:05,223 --> 00:27:08,726
- His form is tall and graceful
- and capable of great endurance...
- 281
- 00:27:08,893 --> 00:27:10,310
- and great effort.
- 282
- 00:27:10,478 --> 00:27:14,481
- Jesse is lighthearted, reckless,
- and devil-may-care.
- 283
- 00:27:15,525 --> 00:27:18,902
- - There's always a smile on his lips..."
- - All right, all right, all right.
- 284
- 00:27:19,070 --> 00:27:22,865
- Well, yeah, then it just... Frank, Frank,
- Frank. That's nothing. And then...
- 285
- 00:27:35,336 --> 00:27:37,171
- You know what I got
- right next to my bed?
- 286
- 00:27:37,839 --> 00:27:42,885
- Is The Train Robbers, or, A Story
- ofthe James Boys by R.W. Stevens.
- 287
- 00:27:43,052 --> 00:27:46,013
- I mean, many's the night I stayed up...
- 288
- 00:27:46,431 --> 00:27:48,599
- with my eyes open
- and my mouth open...
- 289
- 00:27:48,767 --> 00:27:51,935
- just reading about your escapades
- in the Wide Awake Library.
- 290
- 00:27:54,063 --> 00:27:55,773
- They're all lies, you know.
- 291
- 00:27:59,194 --> 00:28:01,153
- Yeah, of course they are.
- 292
- 00:28:04,407 --> 00:28:07,618
- You don't have to keep smoking that
- if it's making you bungey.
- 293
- 00:28:31,434 --> 00:28:33,894
- Alexander Franklin James
- would be in Baltimore...
- 294
- 00:28:34,062 --> 00:28:37,731
- when he would read of
- the assassination of Jesse James.
- 295
- 00:28:51,162 --> 00:28:55,749
- He had spurned his younger brother
- for being peculiar and temperamental.
- 296
- 00:28:57,126 --> 00:29:00,420
- But once he perceived
- that he would never see Jesse again...
- 297
- 00:29:01,005 --> 00:29:05,634
- Frank would be wrought-up,
- perplexed, despondent.
- 298
- 00:29:44,340 --> 00:29:47,634
- My brother and me are hardly
- on speaking terms these days.
- 299
- 00:29:49,012 --> 00:29:51,305
- Well, I wasn't gonna mention it.
- 300
- 00:30:01,816 --> 00:30:03,275
- Are you scared?
- 301
- 00:30:04,068 --> 00:30:06,194
- No, I'm just surprised a little.
- 302
- 00:30:06,362 --> 00:30:08,947
- They ain't as succulent as I like,
- the devil to clean...
- 303
- 00:30:09,115 --> 00:30:12,159
- but if a man skins them
- and fries them in garlic and oil...
- 304
- 00:30:12,327 --> 00:30:15,203
- mercy, them's good eating.
- 305
- 00:30:15,371 --> 00:30:18,707
- Well, I never been that hungry.
- 306
- 00:30:21,461 --> 00:30:23,545
- I give them names.
- 307
- 00:30:25,006 --> 00:30:26,381
- Such as?
- 308
- 00:30:29,093 --> 00:30:31,595
- Such as enemies.
- 309
- 00:30:32,555 --> 00:30:35,349
- I give them names of enemies.
- 310
- 00:30:48,071 --> 00:30:51,156
- Go tell Wood and Charley
- to get their gatherings together.
- 311
- 00:30:52,575 --> 00:30:54,159
- All right.
- 312
- 00:30:55,536 --> 00:30:57,120
- Me too?
- 313
- 00:30:59,248 --> 00:31:01,208
- You can stay.
- 314
- 00:31:04,212 --> 00:31:05,212
- All right.
- 315
- 00:31:11,844 --> 00:31:13,136
- Hey.
- 316
- 00:31:15,390 --> 00:31:18,058
- - What do you want, peckerwood?
- - Nothing.
- 317
- 00:31:18,226 --> 00:31:20,894
- Except to say Jesse wants
- you two to gather your parts...
- 318
- 00:31:21,062 --> 00:31:23,563
- get on your horses
- and get out of town.
- 319
- 00:31:23,898 --> 00:31:25,899
- And me to stick around.
- 320
- 00:31:28,236 --> 00:31:31,321
- Well, whoa, I'm his cousin...
- 321
- 00:31:31,489 --> 00:31:33,240
- l'll have you know.
- 322
- 00:31:33,408 --> 00:31:35,575
- My mama's his daddy's sister.
- 323
- 00:31:35,910 --> 00:31:38,161
- Is that how they described it to you,
- Wood?
- 324
- 00:31:39,831 --> 00:31:41,957
- You better watch your tongue,
- young sapling.
- 325
- 00:31:42,125 --> 00:31:45,502
- Why is it me who's gotta rattle his hocks
- out of town and not you, Bunny?
- 326
- 00:31:45,670 --> 00:31:47,421
- Put your horns away.
- If I know Jess...
- 327
- 00:31:47,588 --> 00:31:50,799
- there's some real nasty
- sad-suzie work's gotta be done...
- 328
- 00:31:51,217 --> 00:31:54,094
- and Bob's the ninny that has to do it.
- 329
- 00:31:54,262 --> 00:31:56,513
- Oh, yeah, I'm sure that's it, Charley.
- 330
- 00:31:58,266 --> 00:32:02,936
- You only met him 12 hours ago.
- He doesn't even know your name.
- 331
- 00:32:03,980 --> 00:32:07,441
- Wood! You tell your daddy
- I'll be in Kentucky in October.
- 332
- 00:32:08,860 --> 00:32:11,236
- We can hunt some birds together.
- 333
- 00:32:11,779 --> 00:32:13,196
- All right.
- 334
- 00:32:13,948 --> 00:32:17,451
- So how come it's Bob who gets to stay?
- 335
- 00:32:20,038 --> 00:32:23,040
- Bob's gonna move my gear to a house
- down the street.
- 336
- 00:32:24,083 --> 00:32:25,125
- See?
- 337
- 00:32:25,877 --> 00:32:28,420
- - I don't mind.
- - Yeah, well.
- 338
- 00:32:28,588 --> 00:32:30,672
- Sounds like an adventure.
- 339
- 00:32:35,178 --> 00:32:38,388
- They moved to 1017 Troost Avenue
- at night...
- 340
- 00:32:38,556 --> 00:32:42,976
- so that the neighborhood couldn't get
- a good look at them or their belongings.
- 341
- 00:32:44,687 --> 00:32:47,397
- Then Bob thought Jesse
- would give him eight hours' sleep...
- 342
- 00:32:47,565 --> 00:32:49,941
- and a daydreaming goodbye.
- 343
- 00:32:52,904 --> 00:32:55,989
- But with a second day
- in the Thomas Howard house...
- 344
- 00:32:56,157 --> 00:32:58,158
- Bob thought he might never go...
- 345
- 00:32:58,993 --> 00:33:02,829
- but might be brought in
- as a good-natured cousin to the boy...
- 346
- 00:33:04,248 --> 00:33:07,000
- and a gentleman helper to Zee.
- 347
- 00:33:10,004 --> 00:33:11,797
- He went everywhere with Jesse.
- 348
- 00:33:11,964 --> 00:33:14,216
- They made trips
- to the Topeka Exchange Saloon...
- 349
- 00:33:14,383 --> 00:33:18,178
- where Jesse could spend nearly
- 60 minutes sipping one glass of beer...
- 350
- 00:33:18,346 --> 00:33:21,598
- and still complain about feeling tipsy.
- 351
- 00:33:22,266 --> 00:33:25,268
- Bob would rarely vouchsafe his opinions
- as they talked.
- 352
- 00:33:25,436 --> 00:33:28,980
- If spoken to, he would fidget and grin.
- 353
- 00:33:29,690 --> 00:33:33,777
- If Jesse palavered with another person,
- Bob secretaried their dialogue...
- 354
- 00:33:33,945 --> 00:33:37,697
- getting each inflection,
- reading every gesture and tic...
- 355
- 00:33:37,865 --> 00:33:41,076
- as if he wanted to compose
- a biography of the outlaw...
- 356
- 00:33:41,244 --> 00:33:44,204
- or as if he were preparing
- an impersonation.
- 357
- 00:34:00,054 --> 00:34:01,972
- Go away.
- 358
- 00:34:04,809 --> 00:34:08,562
- Used to be couldn't no one sneak up
- on Jesse James.
- 359
- 00:34:09,897 --> 00:34:12,232
- Now you think otherwise?
- 360
- 00:34:13,317 --> 00:34:16,528
- I ain't never seen you without your guns,
- neither.
- 361
- 00:34:29,750 --> 00:34:32,085
- I can't figure it out.
- 362
- 00:34:33,004 --> 00:34:35,172
- Do you wanna be like me...
- 363
- 00:34:35,590 --> 00:34:37,090
- or do you wanna be me?
- 364
- 00:34:43,014 --> 00:34:45,265
- I'm just making fun, is all.
- 365
- 00:34:47,935 --> 00:34:51,188
- Bob was sent away cordially
- the next day...
- 366
- 00:34:51,355 --> 00:34:52,856
- with a goodbye from Jesse...
- 367
- 00:34:53,024 --> 00:34:56,943
- but nothing from Zee
- beyond what good manners demanded.
- 368
- 00:35:00,531 --> 00:35:03,366
- It was 40 miles to his sister's farm
- from Kansas City.
- 369
- 00:35:04,660 --> 00:35:08,955
- And it was well into the afternoon
- by the time he arrived there.
- 370
- 00:35:09,957 --> 00:35:14,002
- Mrs. Martha Bolton rented
- the Harbison farm in 1879...
- 371
- 00:35:14,170 --> 00:35:16,755
- just after becoming a widow.
- 372
- 00:35:17,215 --> 00:35:19,966
- And she made a good income
- by giving rooms and meals...
- 373
- 00:35:20,134 --> 00:35:25,305
- to her brothers Charley, Wilbur and Bob,
- and to members of the James Gang...
- 374
- 00:35:25,473 --> 00:35:27,974
- who would appear
- whenever they needed seclusion.
- 375
- 00:35:28,142 --> 00:35:29,809
- Dick! You're gonna make her sick!
- 376
- 00:35:29,977 --> 00:35:32,979
- She's gonna upchuck
- if you don't watch out!
- 377
- 00:35:33,522 --> 00:35:36,733
- Wood Hite had been spurned by Martha
- in his affections...
- 378
- 00:35:36,901 --> 00:35:39,611
- and his attempt to switch his pursuit
- to her daughter...
- 379
- 00:35:39,779 --> 00:35:41,655
- was being thwarted by Dick Liddil.
- 380
- 00:35:41,822 --> 00:35:45,158
- Wait a second, you assured me
- that you were not ticklish.
- 381
- 00:35:45,326 --> 00:35:46,326
- Howdy!
- 382
- 00:35:46,494 --> 00:35:48,328
- What's going on, now?
- What's going on...?
- 383
- 00:35:48,496 --> 00:35:51,331
- - Howdy!
- - Were you fibbing about that?
- 384
- 00:35:51,499 --> 00:35:53,333
- - No.
- - Not at all.
- 385
- 00:35:54,835 --> 00:35:56,544
- You're not supposed to peek, Dick.
- 386
- 00:35:56,712 --> 00:35:59,172
- Well, you're just so pretty
- I can't help myself.
- 387
- 00:35:59,340 --> 00:36:01,841
- - You need to be warning him about that.
- - Howdy.
- 388
- 00:36:02,009 --> 00:36:05,929
- Worry about the field instead,
- might be able to worry about the work...
- 389
- 00:36:06,097 --> 00:36:07,973
- Howdy!
- 390
- 00:36:08,724 --> 00:36:11,685
- - Finally home.
- - I'm so glad, Bob.
- 391
- 00:36:11,852 --> 00:36:14,521
- I'm in that room too, Bob.
- Don't mess with my things.
- 392
- 00:36:14,689 --> 00:36:16,731
- All right, Grandpa.
- 393
- 00:36:22,530 --> 00:36:28,159
- "July 9th. Diligence, tact,
- and a keen sense of responsibility...
- 394
- 00:36:28,327 --> 00:36:32,706
- capacity for detail are your dominant
- traits. Your sense of duty's strong."
- 395
- 00:37:17,043 --> 00:37:18,668
- How long you been there?
- 396
- 00:37:18,836 --> 00:37:21,755
- Just now arrived. Did I miss much?
- 397
- 00:37:23,466 --> 00:37:26,926
- Not unless you never seen a man
- wash his dirty carcass before.
- 398
- 00:37:27,178 --> 00:37:30,597
- Boy, you got a big old pecker
- for being such a little squirrel.
- 399
- 00:37:30,765 --> 00:37:32,766
- That what you come here to see, Dick?
- 400
- 00:37:34,643 --> 00:37:36,102
- No.
- 401
- 00:37:37,104 --> 00:37:40,482
- Your brother said that Jesse
- kept you in Kansas City some extra days.
- 402
- 00:37:40,649 --> 00:37:41,733
- What was the reason?
- 403
- 00:37:43,944 --> 00:37:47,822
- Well, I'm not at liberty to say exactly.
- 404
- 00:37:48,240 --> 00:37:53,787
- Let me ask you this. Did Jesse mention
- that me and Cummins were in cahoots?
- 405
- 00:37:54,955 --> 00:37:56,122
- Is that so?
- 406
- 00:37:56,290 --> 00:38:00,210
- Oh, dear. I went on and said too much,
- have I?
- 407
- 00:38:00,586 --> 00:38:02,629
- Well, who else is partners with you two?
- 408
- 00:38:05,007 --> 00:38:09,511
- See, he'll cut our throats if he finds out.
- You don't know him like I do.
- 409
- 00:38:09,678 --> 00:38:13,681
- You do Jesse dirt,
- you connive behind his back...
- 410
- 00:38:13,849 --> 00:38:16,643
- boy, he'll come after you
- with a cleaver.
- 411
- 00:38:19,355 --> 00:38:21,856
- So, what are you two cahoots
- cooking up?
- 412
- 00:38:24,860 --> 00:38:26,486
- Don't know that I should say.
- 413
- 00:38:27,655 --> 00:38:29,781
- I'm not gonna wheedle
- the dang news from you.
- 414
- 00:38:29,949 --> 00:38:31,699
- How about we'll leave it a mystery...
- 415
- 00:38:31,992 --> 00:38:36,162
- and then we won't neither one of us
- regret our little chat?
- 416
- 00:38:41,877 --> 00:38:44,671
- Can you hand me that six-gun there, Bob?
- 417
- 00:38:53,722 --> 00:38:57,851
- If you so much as mention my name
- to Jesse...
- 418
- 00:38:58,018 --> 00:39:00,353
- boy, I'll find out about it.
- 419
- 00:39:00,521 --> 00:39:03,523
- You had better believe that.
- 420
- 00:39:03,691 --> 00:39:05,733
- And I'll look you up.
- 421
- 00:39:05,901 --> 00:39:10,822
- I'll knock on your door,
- and I will be as mad as a hornet.
- 422
- 00:39:11,532 --> 00:39:13,700
- I will be hot.
- 423
- 00:39:15,619 --> 00:39:18,371
- You be careful with that iron, Dick.
- 424
- 00:39:26,714 --> 00:39:30,300
- You know where I stand on these matters
- and that's all there is to it.
- 425
- 00:39:30,468 --> 00:39:34,053
- Me and you can be as friendly as pigs
- from now on.
- 426
- 00:39:59,580 --> 00:40:03,041
- I'm Bunny Ford, stick your hands
- up in the air!
- 427
- 00:40:03,209 --> 00:40:04,918
- Mister.
- 428
- 00:40:10,174 --> 00:40:12,425
- Oh, you have some nerve.
- 429
- 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:19,098
- We were just reading about the James boys
- among the Mexicans.
- 430
- 00:40:20,851 --> 00:40:23,520
- What's this? This ain't Jesse.
- 431
- 00:40:23,687 --> 00:40:26,814
- - You don't know that.
- - He would've never wore no mustache.
- 432
- 00:40:26,982 --> 00:40:29,359
- Never was anywheres near a cannon.
- 433
- 00:40:29,527 --> 00:40:31,945
- Let me see that picture.
- 434
- 00:40:32,112 --> 00:40:34,864
- Boy, I can't even calculate
- what I'm looking at.
- 435
- 00:40:35,115 --> 00:40:37,242
- - Give me that.
- - Ever since he was a child...
- 436
- 00:40:37,409 --> 00:40:40,620
- Bob's collected whatsoever he could find
- about the James brothers.
- 437
- 00:40:40,788 --> 00:40:42,956
- Yeah, got himself a little museum
- in his room.
- 438
- 00:40:43,123 --> 00:40:46,751
- Next time you come snooping around,
- you better strap on a shooting iron!
- 439
- 00:40:47,294 --> 00:40:49,796
- Well, you can see how scared I am.
- 440
- 00:40:49,964 --> 00:40:53,800
- You too, Wood Hite. Cross me again,
- I'll put a bullet through your head!
- 441
- 00:40:54,802 --> 00:40:56,010
- Boy, you...
- 442
- 00:40:56,679 --> 00:40:59,347
- Son, you better recollect
- who my cousin is...
- 443
- 00:40:59,515 --> 00:41:03,601
- because you've seemed to misremembered
- that Jesse loves me like the Good Book.
- 444
- 00:41:03,769 --> 00:41:07,397
- Now, you may play it like you're
- a dangerous person in the grocery store...
- 445
- 00:41:07,565 --> 00:41:09,983
- but don't misremember
- who you be accounting to...
- 446
- 00:41:10,150 --> 00:41:12,569
- if I so much get my feelings hurt.
- - I don't care!
- 447
- 00:41:12,736 --> 00:41:14,320
- Do I have to yell "suwee"?
- 448
- 00:41:14,488 --> 00:41:16,447
- Why don't we make up,
- be pleasant for once?
- 449
- 00:41:16,615 --> 00:41:19,450
- Why don't we pass the evening
- like pleasant human beings?
- 450
- 00:41:19,618 --> 00:41:21,869
- I like your nickel suit, cowboy.
- 451
- 00:41:47,688 --> 00:41:49,480
- You see something?
- 452
- 00:41:50,691 --> 00:41:52,525
- Just a bird.
- 453
- 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,197
- The month of October came...
- 454
- 00:41:58,365 --> 00:42:01,784
- and Jesse began seeing Pinkerton
- operatives in every floor walker...
- 455
- 00:42:01,952 --> 00:42:06,372
- street sweeper, and common man
- poking about in a store.
- 456
- 00:42:08,626 --> 00:42:11,169
- On the morning of the 11th,
- he would wake his wife...
- 457
- 00:42:11,337 --> 00:42:15,548
- with the Scripture pertaining to
- the Holy Family's flight into Egypt.
- 458
- 00:42:19,261 --> 00:42:24,182
- Overnight, the Thomas Howard clan
- vanished from Kansas City.
- 459
- 00:42:34,652 --> 00:42:37,320
- Shortly thereafter,
- four of the Blue Cut train robbers...
- 460
- 00:42:37,488 --> 00:42:40,323
- were arrested in shacks near Glendale.
- 461
- 00:42:45,371 --> 00:42:49,082
- How Jesse could have known
- remains a mystery.
- 462
- 00:43:01,095 --> 00:43:04,097
- Theirs was a wandering existence.
- 463
- 00:43:04,264 --> 00:43:05,973
- Men who choose to be outlaws...
- 464
- 00:43:06,141 --> 00:43:10,103
- cannot afford to remain in one place
- for very long.
- 465
- 00:43:19,363 --> 00:43:23,408
- - Goodness. Maybe I'll change my mind.
- - Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.
- 466
- 00:43:23,575 --> 00:43:25,785
- - Martha.
- - Buck up, man.
- 467
- 00:43:25,953 --> 00:43:29,539
- Wood and Dick would bicker
- across the entire state of Kentucky...
- 468
- 00:43:29,707 --> 00:43:34,669
- until they made Russellville, home
- of Major George Hite, Wood's father...
- 469
- 00:43:34,837 --> 00:43:37,964
- and uncle to Frank and Jesse James.
- 470
- 00:43:46,056 --> 00:43:48,224
- You stay away from this one.
- 471
- 00:43:48,976 --> 00:43:51,018
- She's my daddy's wife.
- 472
- 00:43:51,979 --> 00:43:53,312
- You got it?
- 473
- 00:44:17,212 --> 00:44:18,838
- Did you cook this, ma'am?
- 474
- 00:44:22,176 --> 00:44:24,427
- I've got a nigger woman.
- 475
- 00:44:26,513 --> 00:44:27,555
- How's that?
- 476
- 00:44:32,019 --> 00:44:35,354
- Dick asked if I cooked this.
- 477
- 00:44:35,606 --> 00:44:37,106
- Did you?
- 478
- 00:44:39,693 --> 00:44:40,693
- No.
- 479
- 00:44:49,912 --> 00:44:52,371
- She knew what he was like
- when she married him.
- 480
- 00:45:18,899 --> 00:45:23,110
- I guess we're the night owls, you and I.
- 481
- 00:45:24,530 --> 00:45:26,364
- I'm glad.
- 482
- 00:45:28,659 --> 00:45:30,076
- How come?
- 483
- 00:45:31,078 --> 00:45:33,704
- You're interesting to look at.
- 484
- 00:45:34,581 --> 00:45:38,084
- You have a real pleasant disposition.
- 485
- 00:45:39,753 --> 00:45:43,673
- And I don't know, you sort of
- make me feel warm all over.
- 486
- 00:45:45,676 --> 00:45:50,346
- You know, I'm what they call a...
- An inamorato.
- 487
- 00:45:54,226 --> 00:45:58,938
- Well, I knew
- there had to be a name for it.
- 488
- 00:46:02,776 --> 00:46:04,944
- You and the Hites
- don't get along too well...
- 489
- 00:46:05,112 --> 00:46:08,364
- if I'm to trust Wood and his version
- of the situation.
- 490
- 00:46:09,533 --> 00:46:13,077
- We hate each other like poison,
- if you wanna know the truth.
- 491
- 00:46:13,745 --> 00:46:17,456
- Most of the Hites wouldn't spit on me
- if I was on fire.
- 492
- 00:46:19,668 --> 00:46:22,461
- They say that when a woman's on fire...
- 493
- 00:46:22,629 --> 00:46:27,091
- you're supposed to roll her around on
- the ground and cover her with your body.
- 494
- 00:46:28,427 --> 00:46:31,137
- Well, you are a naughty tease.
- 495
- 00:46:37,686 --> 00:46:40,021
- Isn't it about bedtime?
- 496
- 00:46:41,356 --> 00:46:44,233
- Well, I'll just kiss those dainty nubbins.
- 497
- 00:46:58,165 --> 00:46:59,582
- Good night.
- 498
- 00:47:14,014 --> 00:47:15,139
- Would you stop?
- 499
- 00:47:20,395 --> 00:47:24,440
- Boy, I believe I drank too much coffee.
- 500
- 00:47:28,153 --> 00:47:31,489
- I gotta go visit the privy
- something terrible.
- 501
- 00:48:00,769 --> 00:48:03,062
- This is embarrassing.
- 502
- 00:48:03,730 --> 00:48:07,817
- Now, you go ahead and do your duty.
- I don't mind.
- 503
- 00:48:08,986 --> 00:48:13,072
- I've sort of got stage fright with
- a strange man in the commode with me.
- 504
- 00:48:13,240 --> 00:48:14,740
- I ain't strange.
- 505
- 00:48:15,075 --> 00:48:17,952
- I'm built just like the rest of them.
- 506
- 00:48:20,706 --> 00:48:23,791
- You look awful pretty.
- 507
- 00:48:25,210 --> 00:48:26,961
- Do I?
- 508
- 00:48:27,337 --> 00:48:32,008
- I haven't never in my life seen
- such well-shaped limbs.
- 509
- 00:48:39,599 --> 00:48:41,726
- Is Wood awake?
- 510
- 00:48:43,937 --> 00:48:45,229
- It's just me.
- 511
- 00:48:54,072 --> 00:48:56,991
- And I bet you thought I was a lady.
- 512
- 00:49:43,830 --> 00:49:46,165
- Well, you ain't much of a housekeeper,
- are you?
- 513
- 00:49:49,503 --> 00:49:51,170
- You didn't just happen by.
- 514
- 00:49:53,590 --> 00:49:55,299
- Why not?
- 515
- 00:50:22,536 --> 00:50:25,454
- Go on and take a load off your feet.
- 516
- 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,565
- You ought to get yourself a wife.
- 517
- 00:50:52,899 --> 00:50:54,275
- Yeah.
- 518
- 00:50:54,526 --> 00:50:56,360
- I suppose.
- 519
- 00:50:59,739 --> 00:51:02,950
- I was gonna ask Martha. Charley's sister.
- 520
- 00:51:03,118 --> 00:51:06,495
- I was gonna ask her
- if she could imagine it.
- 521
- 00:51:07,747 --> 00:51:10,583
- But I guess Wood has plans of his own.
- 522
- 00:51:11,209 --> 00:51:13,836
- And there's always Dick Liddil
- getting in the way.
- 523
- 00:51:14,921 --> 00:51:16,922
- I'll give it some thought, though.
- 524
- 00:51:17,674 --> 00:51:19,633
- Your crops come in?
- 525
- 00:51:20,844 --> 00:51:25,931
- No, I don't got much.
- Just a garden patch and a pasture.
- 526
- 00:51:28,226 --> 00:51:30,603
- I was sick at planting time.
- 527
- 00:51:31,605 --> 00:51:32,980
- So...
- 528
- 00:51:35,192 --> 00:51:37,526
- Ed, how you feeling now?
- 529
- 00:51:40,363 --> 00:51:41,447
- Why?
- 530
- 00:51:43,325 --> 00:51:45,534
- You're acting queer.
- 531
- 00:51:54,044 --> 00:51:57,713
- Well, you and me ain't been
- just real good friends lately.
- 532
- 00:51:58,673 --> 00:52:01,800
- That's not your fault,
- you understand that.
- 533
- 00:52:04,137 --> 00:52:05,763
- You hear talk, though.
- 534
- 00:52:07,807 --> 00:52:09,308
- Talk?
- 535
- 00:52:13,104 --> 00:52:15,314
- People tell you things.
- 536
- 00:52:22,864 --> 00:52:24,990
- Why don't you give me an example?
- 537
- 00:52:29,287 --> 00:52:31,413
- Jim Cummins come by here.
- 538
- 00:52:33,041 --> 00:52:34,375
- Jim Cummins.
- 539
- 00:52:35,585 --> 00:52:37,878
- Oh, and Jim says:
- 540
- 00:52:40,423 --> 00:52:44,134
- "You know them boys
- that got caught in the Blue Cut deal?"
- 541
- 00:52:47,180 --> 00:52:50,849
- Well, Jim says he got word...
- 542
- 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:57,564
- that you're planning to kill them.
- 543
- 00:52:59,401 --> 00:53:01,694
- Why would I do that?
- 544
- 00:53:03,613 --> 00:53:05,739
- That's just talk probably.
- 545
- 00:53:09,744 --> 00:53:13,580
- Jim Cummins. He say anything else?
- 546
- 00:53:13,957 --> 00:53:17,835
- Nope. No, that was it, basically.
- 547
- 00:53:28,221 --> 00:53:30,639
- That still don't explain why you're scared.
- 548
- 00:53:34,269 --> 00:53:37,146
- Well, I'm in the same situation, you see.
- 549
- 00:53:37,897 --> 00:53:39,898
- I was terrified, I saw you ride up.
- 550
- 00:53:40,567 --> 00:53:43,569
- - I just happened by, Ed.
- - Suppose you heard gossip, though.
- 551
- 00:53:43,737 --> 00:53:46,655
- Suppose you heard Jim Cummins
- come by, you might have thought...
- 552
- 00:53:46,823 --> 00:53:51,785
- that we were planning to capture you
- or get that reward, and that ain't true.
- 553
- 00:53:51,953 --> 00:53:54,246
- But you might have suspected it.
- 554
- 00:54:12,599 --> 00:54:15,225
- Haven't heard a lick of gossip lately.
- 555
- 00:54:15,393 --> 00:54:19,813
- I got 600 dollars stashed away.
- I don't need no governor's reward.
- 556
- 00:54:22,734 --> 00:54:24,651
- Well, it's the principle too.
- 557
- 00:54:29,657 --> 00:54:31,158
- Well...
- 558
- 00:54:31,451 --> 00:54:34,953
- - I'm glad I stopped by.
- - Oh, me too.
- 559
- 00:54:59,771 --> 00:55:02,815
- What do you say
- if we were to go for a ride?
- 560
- 00:55:07,779 --> 00:55:10,656
- We can go into town. I'll buy you dinner.
- 561
- 00:55:12,242 --> 00:55:14,535
- Then I'll be on my way.
- 562
- 00:55:23,503 --> 00:55:25,254
- Okay.
- 563
- 00:56:25,690 --> 00:56:27,399
- You ready to go for a ride?
- 564
- 00:56:43,208 --> 00:56:45,584
- We going to your place?
- 565
- 00:56:50,423 --> 00:56:52,549
- You seen Ed Miller lately?
- 566
- 00:56:53,927 --> 00:56:56,053
- Nobody has.
- 567
- 00:56:59,849 --> 00:57:02,434
- Must have gone off to California.
- 568
- 00:57:06,481 --> 00:57:08,815
- I'd still like to know where we're going.
- 569
- 00:57:13,988 --> 00:57:17,908
- If you were going to see Jim Cummins,
- wouldn't you follow this road?
- 570
- 00:57:23,331 --> 00:57:25,165
- I guess so.
- 571
- 00:58:08,126 --> 00:58:09,585
- Howdy.
- 572
- 00:58:20,471 --> 00:58:22,598
- Are you friends of my pa's?
- 573
- 00:58:27,687 --> 00:58:29,521
- We're friends of Jim Cummins.
- 574
- 00:58:33,651 --> 00:58:36,528
- Well, it so happens
- he's been gone since August.
- 575
- 00:58:36,696 --> 00:58:38,780
- And never said where he gone to.
- 576
- 00:58:43,703 --> 00:58:46,955
- - I'm Matt Collins.
- - Albert Ford.
- 577
- 00:58:47,123 --> 00:58:49,041
- Very happy to meet you.
- 578
- 00:58:54,756 --> 00:58:58,258
- - Dick Turpin.
- - Pleased to make your acquaintance.
- 579
- 00:59:10,980 --> 00:59:12,981
- I don't know where he is!
- Leave me alone!
- 580
- 00:59:13,149 --> 00:59:14,900
- Shut your mouth!
- You shut your mouth!
- 581
- 00:59:16,903 --> 00:59:19,738
- - You shut your mouth.
- - I don't know where he is!
- 582
- 00:59:20,448 --> 00:59:22,491
- - I don't know!
- - Get in there.
- 583
- 00:59:23,368 --> 00:59:24,409
- Shut up.
- 584
- 00:59:24,577 --> 00:59:27,079
- - I don't know where he is!
- - Shut up.
- 585
- 00:59:28,122 --> 00:59:29,581
- - I don't know!
- - Shut up.
- 586
- 00:59:29,749 --> 00:59:30,832
- - Jesus.
- - Shut up.
- 587
- 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,085
- Jesse, he's just a kid.
- 588
- 00:59:33,503 --> 00:59:37,172
- He knows where his uncle Jim is and
- that's gonna make him old soon enough.
- 589
- 00:59:37,340 --> 00:59:39,633
- - Maybe he doesn't know.
- - He knows!
- 590
- 00:59:39,801 --> 00:59:41,468
- You need to ask and ask sometimes.
- 591
- 00:59:41,636 --> 00:59:45,263
- Sometimes a child don't remember so much
- at first. But it'll come back to him.
- 592
- 00:59:47,308 --> 00:59:49,851
- My goodness, she's about to rip off,
- sweetie.
- 593
- 00:59:50,019 --> 00:59:52,020
- Just a little more here to get her started.
- 594
- 00:59:52,188 --> 00:59:54,940
- Then I think I can rip her off
- like a page from a book.
- 595
- 00:59:55,108 --> 00:59:57,234
- Jesus, he can't even talk.
- 596
- 01:00:00,071 --> 01:00:03,281
- Where's Jim?
- 597
- 01:00:03,449 --> 01:00:05,409
- Where's Jim? Where's Jim?
- 598
- 01:00:05,576 --> 01:00:08,954
- Where's Jim? Where's Jim? Where's Jim?
- 599
- 01:00:09,288 --> 01:00:11,540
- - Where's Jim?
- - Quit it!
- 600
- 01:00:12,041 --> 01:00:14,459
- You bastard! I don't know where he is!
- 601
- 01:00:14,627 --> 01:00:17,462
- You won't believe me!
- You never even gave me a chance!
- 602
- 01:00:17,630 --> 01:00:19,631
- You kept my... You kept my mouth shut!
- 603
- 01:00:21,008 --> 01:00:24,428
- I never know where Jim is or
- when he comes! So leave me alone.
- 604
- 01:00:24,595 --> 01:00:27,013
- Get off me, you son of a bitch!
- 605
- 01:01:20,067 --> 01:01:22,027
- I'm worn out.
- 606
- 01:01:22,236 --> 01:01:25,113
- I can't. No, see...
- 607
- 01:01:28,159 --> 01:01:30,702
- My mind's all tangled anyway.
- 608
- 01:01:31,245 --> 01:01:34,706
- Little deals like this
- just make me feel dirty.
- 609
- 01:01:55,770 --> 01:01:57,813
- Are you all right, Jesse?
- 610
- 01:02:26,384 --> 01:02:28,218
- Jesse was sick...
- 611
- 01:02:28,386 --> 01:02:32,848
- with rheums, and aches
- and lung congestions.
- 612
- 01:02:33,724 --> 01:02:37,018
- Insomnia stained
- his eye sockets like soot.
- 613
- 01:02:37,854 --> 01:02:40,856
- He read auguries in
- the snarled intestines of chickens...
- 614
- 01:02:42,066 --> 01:02:45,610
- or the blow of cat hair
- released to the wind.
- 615
- 01:02:46,445 --> 01:02:51,408
- And the omens promised bad luck,
- which moated and dungeoned him.
- 616
- 01:03:33,117 --> 01:03:35,660
- How come it's you
- that's gotta do all the chores?
- 617
- 01:03:35,828 --> 01:03:40,081
- Charley and Bob pay extry to Martha
- so that they don't have to.
- 618
- 01:03:41,375 --> 01:03:43,460
- It still don't seem fair.
- 619
- 01:03:50,217 --> 01:03:51,760
- Martha.
- 620
- 01:03:53,512 --> 01:03:56,097
- Well, look what the cat dragged in.
- 621
- 01:04:00,895 --> 01:04:02,187
- You come from Kentucky?
- 622
- 01:04:05,566 --> 01:04:09,402
- Why do you have your head in a hole,
- Martha?
- 623
- 01:04:12,448 --> 01:04:16,201
- Wood and Dick had a shooting scrape
- a few months ago.
- 624
- 01:04:17,745 --> 01:04:19,037
- Cover the kettle, Ida.
- 625
- 01:04:24,293 --> 01:04:26,586
- And what did you and Dick
- get in a scrape about?
- 626
- 01:04:30,466 --> 01:04:34,469
- Well, he tampered
- with my daddy's wife...
- 627
- 01:04:34,637 --> 01:04:38,014
- while a pork chop
- burned on the skillet...
- 628
- 01:04:38,182 --> 01:04:39,724
- so I shot at him.
- 629
- 01:04:44,772 --> 01:04:49,192
- Ida! Do not stick your thumb
- in the cream when you skim it.
- 630
- 01:04:50,361 --> 01:04:55,573
- His chicanery and his philandering ways...
- 631
- 01:04:55,741 --> 01:04:57,701
- has instigated such malice.
- 632
- 01:04:57,868 --> 01:05:01,788
- He's a yellow snake in the grass
- and he can't be trusted, Martha.
- 633
- 01:05:04,709 --> 01:05:08,086
- Dick told me a complete other version
- of that affray.
- 634
- 01:05:09,547 --> 01:05:12,215
- Wood Hite's downstairs.
- 635
- 01:05:12,925 --> 01:05:14,592
- You mean he's here?
- 636
- 01:05:17,388 --> 01:05:20,098
- Yeah, he come in late last night.
- 637
- 01:05:23,769 --> 01:05:24,811
- Hey, simmer down!
- 638
- 01:05:24,979 --> 01:05:29,566
- Don't get into a fracas up there, you boys!
- I've got breakfast almost ready.
- 639
- 01:07:40,447 --> 01:07:42,657
- He's still sucking air.
- 640
- 01:07:43,826 --> 01:07:46,035
- But I think he's a goner.
- 641
- 01:07:56,172 --> 01:07:59,465
- Maybe y'all better come wish him well
- on his journey.
- 642
- 01:08:26,285 --> 01:08:27,744
- Wood?
- 643
- 01:08:30,164 --> 01:08:32,457
- You were a good fellow, Wood.
- 644
- 01:08:32,666 --> 01:08:36,169
- Oh, I sure hope you're not
- in frightful pain, Wood.
- 645
- 01:08:36,754 --> 01:08:40,465
- I'd get you something to drink,
- but I'm afraid you'd just choke on it.
- 646
- 01:08:41,842 --> 01:08:44,010
- Little Ida's gonna miss you.
- 647
- 01:08:44,178 --> 01:08:46,304
- So is the rest of the family.
- 648
- 01:08:49,516 --> 01:08:53,144
- Well, one thing's settled.
- Can't take him into Richmond.
- 649
- 01:08:54,230 --> 01:08:55,313
- Why not?
- 650
- 01:08:56,774 --> 01:08:59,317
- Well, one, sheriff'll put Bob in jail.
- 651
- 01:08:59,485 --> 01:09:03,363
- And two, Jesse'll find out his cousin
- Wood's been shot in our house...
- 652
- 01:09:03,530 --> 01:09:06,950
- and then that'll be the end
- of each and every one of us.
- 653
- 01:09:16,835 --> 01:09:20,505
- "And in one merciless, violent thrust
- broke in...
- 654
- 01:09:20,965 --> 01:09:23,800
- and carried all before him,
- and scented and brewed...
- 655
- 01:09:23,968 --> 01:09:26,511
- reeking with blood of my virginity...
- 656
- 01:09:26,679 --> 01:09:31,182
- up to its utmost length in my body."
- 657
- 01:09:32,810 --> 01:09:35,687
- He ain't disappeared,
- if that's what you were hoping.
- 658
- 01:09:40,150 --> 01:09:42,110
- What chapter you on?
- 659
- 01:09:42,611 --> 01:09:47,657
- She's met some Algerian corsair
- down at Gibraltar.
- 660
- 01:09:47,825 --> 01:09:50,118
- Got herself all agitated.
- 661
- 01:09:52,454 --> 01:09:53,871
- How's that leg?
- 662
- 01:09:54,707 --> 01:09:58,876
- Full of torment, Bob. Thanks for asking.
- 663
- 01:10:44,757 --> 01:10:47,425
- Blessed are the poor in spirit...
- 664
- 01:10:47,593 --> 01:10:49,844
- for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
- 665
- 01:10:51,263 --> 01:10:56,851
- Blessed are them that mourn,
- for they shall be comforted.
- 666
- 01:10:58,979 --> 01:11:00,938
- Blessed are the...
- 667
- 01:11:04,443 --> 01:11:05,985
- Meek.
- 668
- 01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:10,114
- Blessed are the meek.
- 669
- 01:11:46,068 --> 01:11:48,152
- - Is it him?
- - Yeah.
- 670
- 01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:51,322
- Why is he here? Does he know
- about Wood, do you think?
- 671
- 01:11:51,490 --> 01:11:53,908
- I don't know. All I know is
- he don't miss very much.
- 672
- 01:11:54,076 --> 01:11:58,037
- - What should I say about you if he asks?
- - Tell him I'm in K.C. with Mattie.
- 673
- 01:12:00,749 --> 01:12:04,544
- He was buffalo hunting.
- He was thrilled to meet yours truly.
- 674
- 01:12:04,711 --> 01:12:08,673
- Yeah, over there in Europe there's only
- two Americans they know for certain...
- 675
- 01:12:08,841 --> 01:12:11,759
- Mark Twain and Jesse James.
- 676
- 01:12:13,137 --> 01:12:16,347
- - Why, it's the kid.
- - How's everything?
- 677
- 01:12:18,809 --> 01:12:21,394
- - I never take off my gun belts.
- - Yeah?
- 678
- 01:12:21,562 --> 01:12:23,146
- Good thinking.
- 679
- 01:12:29,236 --> 01:12:31,529
- Well, Charley, did you hurt your leg?
- 680
- 01:12:34,032 --> 01:12:36,075
- Yeah, I slipped...
- I slipped off the roof...
- 681
- 01:12:36,243 --> 01:12:39,871
- and I smacked down into a snow bank
- like a ton of stupidness.
- 682
- 01:12:40,038 --> 01:12:42,707
- One second I'm screaming,
- "Whoa, Nelly!"
- 683
- 01:12:42,875 --> 01:12:45,543
- Next second, poof,
- I'm neck-deep in snow.
- 684
- 01:12:48,422 --> 01:12:52,258
- Well, whatever possessed you
- to climb a roof in December?
- 685
- 01:12:58,265 --> 01:13:01,726
- There was a k... A kite. What am I saying?
- There was a cat.
- 686
- 01:13:01,894 --> 01:13:04,312
- A cat. It was on the roof
- and I went after him.
- 687
- 01:13:04,480 --> 01:13:09,025
- It was a tomcat yowling
- and what all, and I slipped.
- 688
- 01:13:20,954 --> 01:13:24,081
- I thought maybe your club foot
- was gaining on you.
- 689
- 01:13:33,091 --> 01:13:34,759
- Oh, yeah.
- 690
- 01:13:35,511 --> 01:13:39,764
- Dick went to Kansas City to be
- with his wife. He was here for a bit.
- 691
- 01:13:59,368 --> 01:14:02,286
- Hey, here's a cute story, Jess.
- 692
- 01:14:02,454 --> 01:14:05,790
- Bobby was what, 11 or 12...
- 693
- 01:14:05,958 --> 01:14:09,126
- and you were by far
- his most admired personage.
- 694
- 01:14:09,628 --> 01:14:10,795
- He couldn't get enough.
- 695
- 01:14:10,963 --> 01:14:15,174
- It was "Jesse this" and "Jesse that"
- and "Jesse this" from sunrise to sunset.
- 696
- 01:14:15,342 --> 01:14:16,467
- Fascinating.
- 697
- 01:14:16,635 --> 01:14:18,386
- No, there's more. This is cute.
- 698
- 01:14:18,554 --> 01:14:23,307
- We're at supper and Bob asks,
- "You know what size boot Jesse wears?"
- 699
- 01:14:23,475 --> 01:14:27,228
- - Charley, Jesse doesn't wanna hear this.
- - Shush, now, Bob, let me tell it.
- 700
- 01:14:27,396 --> 01:14:30,439
- Bob says... He says, "You know
- what size boot Jesse wears?"
- 701
- 01:14:30,607 --> 01:14:33,776
- He says, "Six and a half." He says,
- "Ain't that a big enough boot...
- 702
- 01:14:33,944 --> 01:14:35,736
- for a man 5'8 "tall?"
- 703
- 01:14:35,904 --> 01:14:39,740
- I decided to josh him a little, you know,
- he being my kid brother and everything.
- 704
- 01:14:39,908 --> 01:14:42,994
- So I said, "He doesn't have toes is why."
- 705
- 01:14:43,161 --> 01:14:44,704
- That's a really stupid story.
- 706
- 01:14:44,871 --> 01:14:49,500
- "He was dangling his feet off a culvert
- and a catfish nibbled his toes off."
- 707
- 01:14:49,668 --> 01:14:52,378
- Bob taxed himself trying to picture it.
- 708
- 01:14:59,261 --> 01:15:01,929
- That'd be a good joke if it was funny.
- 709
- 01:15:02,764 --> 01:15:05,308
- Isn't that a cute story, Jess?
- 710
- 01:15:15,193 --> 01:15:18,029
- Give me some more conversations, Bob.
- 711
- 01:15:23,118 --> 01:15:28,289
- I got one. This one's about as
- crackerjack... It's the one about your...
- 712
- 01:15:28,457 --> 01:15:30,374
- Let Bob tell it.
- 713
- 01:15:31,710 --> 01:15:33,544
- All right.
- 714
- 01:15:40,052 --> 01:15:42,053
- I don't even know
- what you're talking about.
- 715
- 01:15:42,220 --> 01:15:46,223
- About how you and Jesse
- have so much in common.
- 716
- 01:15:49,269 --> 01:15:50,936
- Go on, Bob.
- 717
- 01:15:51,104 --> 01:15:53,064
- Yeah, come on, Bob.
- 718
- 01:15:53,815 --> 01:15:56,067
- Tell us a story.
- 719
- 01:15:58,028 --> 01:16:02,615
- - Nope. No.
- - Come on, entertain Jesse. He's here.
- 720
- 01:16:09,581 --> 01:16:11,082
- Come on.
- 721
- 01:16:17,964 --> 01:16:21,884
- Well, if you'll pardon my saying so,
- I guess...
- 722
- 01:16:22,052 --> 01:16:26,097
- it is interesting the many ways
- you and I overlap and whatnot.
- 723
- 01:16:27,432 --> 01:16:30,184
- I mean, you begin with our daddies.
- 724
- 01:16:30,352 --> 01:16:33,312
- Your daddy was a pastor
- at the New Hope Baptist Church...
- 725
- 01:16:33,480 --> 01:16:38,234
- and my daddy was a pastor
- at the church in Excelsior Springs.
- 726
- 01:16:39,653 --> 01:16:43,989
- You're the youngest of three James boys,
- and I'm the youngest of five Ford boys.
- 727
- 01:16:45,784 --> 01:16:48,452
- Between Charley and me,
- there's another brother, Wilbur...
- 728
- 01:16:48,620 --> 01:16:50,663
- with six letters in his name.
- 729
- 01:16:50,997 --> 01:16:56,627
- And between Frank and you, is another
- brother Robert, also with six letters.
- 730
- 01:16:56,795 --> 01:17:00,548
- And my Christian name
- is Robert, of course.
- 731
- 01:17:01,883 --> 01:17:04,051
- You have blue eyes, I have blue eyes.
- 732
- 01:17:04,219 --> 01:17:08,222
- You're 5'8 "tall, I'm 5'8" tall.
- 733
- 01:17:12,978 --> 01:17:18,315
- Me, I must have had a list as long as
- your nightshirt when I was 12, but...
- 734
- 01:17:18,483 --> 01:17:21,944
- I seem to have lost some curiosities
- over the years.
- 735
- 01:17:40,213 --> 01:17:42,423
- Ain't he something?
- 736
- 01:17:55,020 --> 01:17:59,190
- Did I ever tell you the story about
- that scalawag, George Shepherd?
- 737
- 01:17:59,524 --> 01:18:01,400
- Shepherd's one of
- Quantrill's lieutenants.
- 738
- 01:18:01,568 --> 01:18:04,278
- He give me a story much like Bob's,
- what bring him to mind.
- 739
- 01:18:04,738 --> 01:18:07,281
- Going on about how much
- we had in common, and so on...
- 740
- 01:18:07,449 --> 01:18:09,992
- so he could get in the gang.
- 741
- 01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:13,287
- How could I have known
- he had a grudge against me?
- 742
- 01:18:13,455 --> 01:18:17,958
- How could I have known
- he was lying to get on my good side?
- 743
- 01:18:18,126 --> 01:18:23,130
- I said, "George, come on aboard.
- Glad to have you."
- 744
- 01:18:23,298 --> 01:18:28,093
- George thought he was smart,
- except he wasn't.
- 745
- 01:18:29,054 --> 01:18:32,181
- One morning, George rides into camp...
- 746
- 01:18:32,349 --> 01:18:34,558
- and about 20 guns open up on him.
- 747
- 01:18:38,355 --> 01:18:42,817
- See, old George, he only had one eye. You
- gotta have two eyes, you wanna get Jesse.
- 748
- 01:18:47,656 --> 01:18:50,783
- You ought not think of me
- like you do George Shepherd.
- 749
- 01:18:52,118 --> 01:18:54,370
- You brought him to mind.
- 750
- 01:18:55,288 --> 01:18:57,581
- Well, it's not very flattering.
- 751
- 01:19:03,588 --> 01:19:06,382
- Sure is good eating, Martha.
- 752
- 01:19:07,259 --> 01:19:09,468
- Well, I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
- 753
- 01:19:09,636 --> 01:19:11,804
- How come George
- had a grudge against you?
- 754
- 01:19:16,726 --> 01:19:20,813
- I said, how come George
- had a grudge against you?
- 755
- 01:19:26,528 --> 01:19:31,282
- Well, you see, George had a nephew
- he wanted me to protect during the war.
- 756
- 01:19:31,449 --> 01:19:33,659
- This nephew had 5000 dollars on him.
- 757
- 01:19:33,827 --> 01:19:38,455
- It just so happens he winds up killed
- and someone swipes that money.
- 758
- 01:19:38,623 --> 01:19:42,459
- And when George is in prison,
- someone whispers to him:
- 759
- 01:19:42,627 --> 01:19:46,380
- "It was Jesse James
- slit the boy's throat."
- 760
- 01:19:51,136 --> 01:19:53,596
- It was just mean gossip, was it?
- 761
- 01:19:55,390 --> 01:19:58,684
- Bob's the expert. Let's put it to him.
- 762
- 01:20:03,773 --> 01:20:06,150
- Oh, dear, I made him cranky.
- 763
- 01:20:06,318 --> 01:20:10,154
- I'm not cranky. I just been
- through this before, is all.
- 764
- 01:20:10,322 --> 01:20:13,490
- Once people get around to making fun
- of me, they don't ever let up.
- 765
- 01:20:13,658 --> 01:20:15,743
- Someone's getting awful fresh over there.
- 766
- 01:20:15,911 --> 01:20:18,579
- Woman, shut your face for once.
- 767
- 01:20:25,587 --> 01:20:27,922
- Don't want you to skip off
- to your room and pout...
- 768
- 01:20:28,089 --> 01:20:30,633
- without knowing why I come by
- for this visit.
- 769
- 01:20:31,426 --> 01:20:33,510
- Why? So you could
- tell us how sorry you are...
- 770
- 01:20:33,678 --> 01:20:36,388
- you had to slap
- our cousin Albert around?
- 771
- 01:20:50,028 --> 01:20:51,862
- I come by...
- 772
- 01:20:52,030 --> 01:20:55,407
- to ask if one of you two Fords...
- 773
- 01:20:55,617 --> 01:20:58,994
- would care to ride with me
- in a journey or two.
- 774
- 01:20:59,371 --> 01:21:02,748
- I guess we both agree
- it ought to be Charley.
- 775
- 01:21:02,916 --> 01:21:05,709
- You been acting sort of testy.
- 776
- 01:21:36,700 --> 01:21:38,909
- Have you seen Wood Hite lately?
- 777
- 01:21:39,411 --> 01:21:42,955
- No. Not at all.
- 778
- 01:21:50,922 --> 01:21:53,590
- I swear that stew
- had some squirrel meat in it.
- 779
- 01:21:53,758 --> 01:21:56,468
- - Still arguing with you, is it?
- - Yeah.
- 780
- 01:21:57,262 --> 01:21:59,179
- - You're Charles Ford?
- - Yes, ma'am.
- 781
- 01:21:59,347 --> 01:22:01,432
- You've seen me once or twice before.
- 782
- 01:22:02,767 --> 01:22:04,685
- I got a letter from George Hite.
- 783
- 01:22:05,311 --> 01:22:08,230
- He hasn't seen hide nor hair of him.
- 784
- 01:22:09,733 --> 01:22:11,942
- And you say you haven't seen Wood?
- 785
- 01:22:12,652 --> 01:22:15,821
- No, l... I can't imagine where he could be.
- 786
- 01:22:43,266 --> 01:22:44,308
- Yeah?
- 787
- 01:22:45,477 --> 01:22:47,644
- You finished with your sleeping?
- 788
- 01:22:49,147 --> 01:22:51,648
- I could use a couple more hours
- if it's no trouble.
- 789
- 01:23:03,328 --> 01:23:04,870
- Yeah.
- 790
- 01:23:08,500 --> 01:23:12,961
- I been holding a discussion with myself
- over if I ought to tell you this or no.
- 791
- 01:23:13,129 --> 01:23:15,798
- My good side won out and...
- 792
- 01:23:17,008 --> 01:23:19,885
- Well, I wanna make a clean breast
- of things.
- 793
- 01:23:21,012 --> 01:23:25,182
- Yeah, my mind's a little cobwebby
- is the only drawback.
- 794
- 01:23:25,350 --> 01:23:30,145
- I could use a little...
- A little more sleep.
- 795
- 01:23:32,690 --> 01:23:34,691
- You know I went to Kentucky?
- 796
- 01:23:35,693 --> 01:23:37,111
- Yeah.
- 797
- 01:23:37,821 --> 01:23:40,239
- I come back through Saline County and...
- 798
- 01:23:41,658 --> 01:23:43,534
- I think to myself:
- 799
- 01:23:44,035 --> 01:23:48,831
- "Why not stop by and see Ed Miller?"
- 800
- 01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:52,709
- So I do.
- 801
- 01:23:56,548 --> 01:23:59,883
- Well, things are not to my satisfaction.
- 802
- 01:24:02,053 --> 01:24:04,805
- Ed's got himself all worked up
- over something.
- 803
- 01:24:06,349 --> 01:24:09,601
- I can see that he's lying like a rug.
- 804
- 01:24:12,939 --> 01:24:16,066
- So I say to myself, "Enough's enough."
- 805
- 01:24:16,568 --> 01:24:19,361
- And I say to Ed, "Come on, Ed.
- 806
- 01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:22,614
- Let's go for a ride."
- 807
- 01:24:24,409 --> 01:24:27,327
- You understand what I'm saying?
- 808
- 01:24:28,580 --> 01:24:31,540
- Going for a ride is like...
- 809
- 01:24:32,584 --> 01:24:35,752
- Going for a ride
- is like giving him what-for?
- 810
- 01:24:37,714 --> 01:24:39,423
- Exactly.
- 811
- 01:24:43,928 --> 01:24:45,387
- So...
- 812
- 01:24:48,099 --> 01:24:49,933
- Ed and Jesse...
- 813
- 01:24:52,353 --> 01:24:54,605
- they argue on the road.
- 814
- 01:24:59,068 --> 01:25:01,403
- Did you ever count the stars?
- 815
- 01:25:04,866 --> 01:25:08,785
- I can't ever get the same number.
- They keep changing on me.
- 816
- 01:25:10,663 --> 01:25:13,707
- I don't even know what a star is exactly.
- 817
- 01:25:16,419 --> 01:25:18,629
- Well, your body knows.
- 818
- 01:25:19,505 --> 01:25:21,965
- It's your mind that forgot.
- 819
- 01:25:31,768 --> 01:25:34,811
- You go on ahead, partner.
- I'll catch up with you.
- 820
- 01:26:15,019 --> 01:26:16,853
- It's okay.
- 821
- 01:26:39,711 --> 01:26:43,171
- It's okay, sweetheart. It's okay.
- 822
- 01:26:46,175 --> 01:26:48,635
- And when push came to shove...
- 823
- 01:26:55,518 --> 01:26:57,894
- Jesse shot and killed him.
- 824
- 01:27:01,232 --> 01:27:03,108
- Jesse did?
- 825
- 01:27:05,570 --> 01:27:07,321
- You got it.
- 826
- 01:27:09,365 --> 01:27:10,741
- You...
- 827
- 01:27:27,300 --> 01:27:29,259
- So, you see, your...
- 828
- 01:27:29,469 --> 01:27:31,928
- Your cousin, he got off easy.
- 829
- 01:27:32,096 --> 01:27:33,722
- I was just playing with Albert.
- 830
- 01:27:35,224 --> 01:27:38,894
- Yeah, I made him squeal
- once or twice myself.
- 831
- 01:27:39,187 --> 01:27:42,272
- I'm just not as thorough as you are.
- 832
- 01:27:53,534 --> 01:27:56,578
- You got a tale to swap with me now?
- 833
- 01:28:05,338 --> 01:28:07,756
- I don't get your meaning.
- 834
- 01:28:09,801 --> 01:28:15,138
- Seems to me, if you have something
- to confess in exchange...
- 835
- 01:28:15,306 --> 01:28:17,474
- it'd only be right...
- 836
- 01:28:18,351 --> 01:28:21,686
- that you'd spit it out now.
- 837
- 01:28:33,491 --> 01:28:35,659
- I can't think of a single thing.
- 838
- 01:28:38,538 --> 01:28:41,331
- About Wood Hite, for example.
- 839
- 01:28:41,499 --> 01:28:46,336
- I'm not gonna... I been saying over and
- over I can't figure out where he's gone.
- 840
- 01:28:46,504 --> 01:28:49,548
- Now, I'm not gonna change my story
- just to have something to spit.
- 841
- 01:28:49,715 --> 01:28:52,426
- - Why was your brother so agitated?
- - Which?
- 842
- 01:28:53,386 --> 01:28:54,511
- Bob.
- 843
- 01:28:55,847 --> 01:28:58,849
- That's just his way. He's antsy.
- 844
- 01:28:59,642 --> 01:29:01,059
- You know?
- 845
- 01:29:17,243 --> 01:29:19,870
- You go on back to sleep now.
- 846
- 01:29:21,497 --> 01:29:24,624
- You got me agitated now, you see?
- 847
- 01:29:31,048 --> 01:29:35,218
- Yeah, just ain't no peace
- when old Jesse's around.
- 848
- 01:29:35,761 --> 01:29:38,763
- You ought to pity my poor wife.
- 849
- 01:29:41,434 --> 01:29:43,602
- Ed Miller was a good friend of mine.
- 850
- 01:29:43,769 --> 01:29:47,230
- He introduced me to you
- at that one poker game.
- 851
- 01:29:47,940 --> 01:29:51,985
- I'm a little angry with you, if you
- wanna know the God's honest truth.
- 852
- 01:29:54,447 --> 01:29:56,948
- You ought to pity me too.
- 853
- 01:30:42,495 --> 01:30:46,456
- As proof of his confederacy with
- the James Gang, Bob told the authorities...
- 854
- 01:30:46,624 --> 01:30:50,126
- that Dick Liddil was sleeping over
- at the rented farmhouse...
- 855
- 01:30:50,294 --> 01:30:53,129
- while his ruined leg mended.
- 856
- 01:30:58,135 --> 01:31:01,972
- And then, created a map
- of the Harbison property...
- 857
- 01:31:03,140 --> 01:31:08,353
- leaving out the creek where
- Wood Hite's remains now moldered.
- 858
- 01:31:09,146 --> 01:31:11,314
- Right, you boys are cornered!
- 859
- 01:31:11,482 --> 01:31:16,027
- Come on out peaceably
- and nobody'll get shot up!
- 860
- 01:31:21,158 --> 01:31:22,200
- Don't shoot!
- 861
- 01:31:26,831 --> 01:31:28,832
- Come on out and show yourself!
- 862
- 01:31:43,848 --> 01:31:45,390
- Hello.
- 863
- 01:31:45,725 --> 01:31:47,350
- We got him.
- 864
- 01:31:47,768 --> 01:31:49,811
- Give me that Colt, son.
- 865
- 01:31:54,734 --> 01:31:57,319
- - All right.
- - Andrew James Liddil...
- 866
- 01:31:57,486 --> 01:32:00,488
- I have a warrant here
- for your arrest...
- 867
- 01:32:00,656 --> 01:32:05,035
- Snowstorms would move over Missouri
- that Sunday, February 19th...
- 868
- 01:32:05,202 --> 01:32:08,204
- shutting down commerce
- for more than two days.
- 869
- 01:32:09,832 --> 01:32:12,542
- - Go, go, go.
- - Are the papers here?
- 870
- 01:32:12,710 --> 01:32:16,379
- - Wants to know if the papers are here.
- - I don't care what he wants.
- 871
- 01:32:16,547 --> 01:32:18,381
- Yet this wouldn't prevent Robert Ford...
- 872
- 01:32:18,549 --> 01:32:20,967
- from presenting himself
- to Governor Crittenden...
- 873
- 01:32:21,135 --> 01:32:24,220
- at the Craig Rifles Ball on Wednesday.
- 874
- 01:32:24,388 --> 01:32:27,974
- I deem it a great privilege
- on this glorious occasion...
- 875
- 01:32:28,142 --> 01:32:30,143
- to recognize publicly...
- 876
- 01:32:30,311 --> 01:32:32,979
- the intelligent and
- effective assistance...
- 877
- 01:32:33,147 --> 01:32:37,942
- that Captain Henry Craig has rendered
- the state of Missouri and myself...
- 878
- 01:32:38,110 --> 01:32:41,571
- in our joint quest
- to rid Jackson County...
- 879
- 01:32:41,989 --> 01:32:43,948
- of the James band.
- 880
- 01:32:44,116 --> 01:32:46,743
- The task that Captain Craig
- has assumed...
- 881
- 01:32:46,911 --> 01:32:51,081
- will require fearless courage,
- extraordinary vigilance...
- 882
- 01:32:51,248 --> 01:32:54,167
- and an unerring selection
- of instrumentalities.
- 883
- 01:32:55,336 --> 01:33:00,006
- Well, I've gotten the signal from my wife
- that enough is enough.
- 884
- 01:33:00,174 --> 01:33:02,550
- However, before I sit...
- 885
- 01:33:02,718 --> 01:33:05,845
- I would like to ask you
- to join me in a toast...
- 886
- 01:33:06,263 --> 01:33:09,974
- to a great son
- of the state of Missouri...
- 887
- 01:33:10,142 --> 01:33:13,978
- my friend, Henry Craig.
- - Here, here.
- 888
- 01:33:26,659 --> 01:33:28,284
- Yes.
- 889
- 01:33:29,286 --> 01:33:31,121
- Just let my attorney know.
- 890
- 01:33:35,584 --> 01:33:36,626
- Hi, governor...
- 891
- 01:33:38,754 --> 01:33:42,006
- Who is that? Who is it?
- 892
- 01:33:42,341 --> 01:33:43,925
- Get out of the way, now.
- 893
- 01:33:53,894 --> 01:33:57,981
- You know, you're more goddamn trouble
- than you're worth, Bob.
- 894
- 01:33:58,149 --> 01:33:59,899
- I was just gonna say hello.
- 895
- 01:34:00,067 --> 01:34:03,278
- No, you weren't gonna do that, Bob.
- That's not why you're down here.
- 896
- 01:34:03,446 --> 01:34:08,700
- You think it's your goddamn coming-out.
- You think you're the belle of the ball.
- 897
- 01:34:08,868 --> 01:34:13,121
- Now you get upstairs and try to keep your
- identity secret, you silly little bastard.
- 898
- 01:34:13,289 --> 01:34:16,166
- The governor'll see you in good time.
- Take him up, boys.
- 899
- 01:34:21,672 --> 01:34:23,798
- Bob would later be cross-examined
- repeatedly...
- 900
- 01:34:23,966 --> 01:34:28,178
- about the exact nature of the deal
- he had made with the authorities.
- 901
- 01:34:28,345 --> 01:34:31,264
- And he was never consistent
- in his recollections.
- 902
- 01:34:35,436 --> 01:34:39,689
- My wife's asleep in the other room,
- so let's speak as quietly as we can.
- 903
- 01:34:40,357 --> 01:34:42,567
- So you're Dick Little.
- 904
- 01:34:44,445 --> 01:34:45,987
- Liddil.
- 905
- 01:34:46,697 --> 01:34:48,656
- I beg your pardon?
- 906
- 01:34:48,949 --> 01:34:50,533
- I spell it with two D's.
- 907
- 01:34:50,701 --> 01:34:53,077
- He's given us a full confession, governor.
- 908
- 01:34:53,245 --> 01:34:55,371
- Newspapers haven't caught onto it yet.
- 909
- 01:34:55,539 --> 01:34:59,042
- And you've guaranteed him
- a conditional pardon...
- 910
- 01:34:59,210 --> 01:35:03,087
- and amnesty for all the robberies
- he's committed.
- 911
- 01:35:04,715 --> 01:35:05,965
- You Robert Ford?
- 912
- 01:35:09,470 --> 01:35:10,762
- How old are you?
- 913
- 01:35:12,848 --> 01:35:14,265
- Twenty.
- 914
- 01:35:14,558 --> 01:35:17,101
- You surrender to Sheriff Timberlake
- as well?
- 915
- 01:35:17,269 --> 01:35:21,189
- No, no, governor. That's his brother,
- Charley Ford, he's in the James Gang.
- 916
- 01:35:21,357 --> 01:35:24,067
- But little Bob here,
- we got nothing on Bob.
- 917
- 01:35:24,235 --> 01:35:26,820
- He's just acting in the capacity of...
- 918
- 01:35:29,031 --> 01:35:31,199
- a private detective.
- 919
- 01:35:32,368 --> 01:35:34,410
- Jesse James sent me a telegram
- last month...
- 920
- 01:35:34,578 --> 01:35:37,747
- saying he'd kill me
- if he had to wreck a train to do it.
- 921
- 01:35:37,915 --> 01:35:40,542
- He said once I got in his hands,
- he'd cut my heart out...
- 922
- 01:35:40,709 --> 01:35:43,211
- and eat it in strips like it was bacon.
- 923
- 01:35:43,379 --> 01:35:45,296
- I'll wreck his train first.
- 924
- 01:35:52,888 --> 01:35:57,058
- I'm sorry, Your Excellency.
- I was thinking about something else.
- 925
- 01:35:57,226 --> 01:35:59,561
- Jesse James is nothing more
- than a public outlaw...
- 926
- 01:35:59,728 --> 01:36:02,522
- who made his reputation
- by stealing whatever he wanted...
- 927
- 01:36:02,690 --> 01:36:04,941
- killing whoever got in his way.
- 928
- 01:36:05,109 --> 01:36:08,695
- You'll hear some fools say he's getting
- back at Republicans and Union men...
- 929
- 01:36:08,863 --> 01:36:11,614
- for the wrongs his family suffered
- during the war.
- 930
- 01:36:11,782 --> 01:36:16,536
- But his victims have scarcely been selected
- with reference to their political views.
- 931
- 01:36:17,037 --> 01:36:19,747
- I'm saying his sins will soon find him out.
- 932
- 01:36:19,915 --> 01:36:22,584
- I'm saying his cup of iniquity is full.
- 933
- 01:36:22,751 --> 01:36:25,461
- I'm saying Jesse James
- is a desperate case...
- 934
- 01:36:25,754 --> 01:36:28,631
- and may require a desperate remedy.
- 935
- 01:36:31,969 --> 01:36:35,096
- Y'all got the right man for the job.
- 936
- 01:36:51,447 --> 01:36:53,698
- Come on. Come on, now.
- 937
- 01:36:54,283 --> 01:36:55,909
- Come on, now.
- 938
- 01:37:40,287 --> 01:37:42,872
- Have you ever considered suicide?
- 939
- 01:37:44,875 --> 01:37:50,213
- I can't say that I have. There's always
- something else I wanted to do.
- 940
- 01:37:51,298 --> 01:37:57,178
- Or my predicaments changed, or I saw
- my hardships from a different slant.
- 941
- 01:37:57,346 --> 01:38:01,724
- You know all what can happen.
- It never seemed respectable.
- 942
- 01:38:08,524 --> 01:38:11,359
- I'll tell you one thing that's for certain.
- 943
- 01:38:11,527 --> 01:38:15,488
- You won't mind dying
- once you've peeked over the other side.
- 944
- 01:38:19,243 --> 01:38:22,286
- You'll no more wanna go back
- to your body than...
- 945
- 01:38:22,454 --> 01:38:24,914
- you'd wanna spoon up your own puke.
- 946
- 01:38:31,422 --> 01:38:34,257
- Hey, since we're looking to rob banks...
- 947
- 01:38:34,425 --> 01:38:39,053
- I was wondering if we could
- add another fella to the gang...
- 948
- 01:38:39,221 --> 01:38:42,807
- and sort of see if we couldn't
- come out of our next job alive.
- 949
- 01:38:45,269 --> 01:38:50,273
- Bob wanted to know could he ride with us
- next time we took on a savings bank or...
- 950
- 01:38:56,613 --> 01:38:59,073
- A savings bank or a...
- 951
- 01:39:00,784 --> 01:39:02,535
- A railroad.
- 952
- 01:39:09,918 --> 01:39:13,212
- Bob isn't much more than a boy
- to most appearances.
- 953
- 01:39:13,380 --> 01:39:16,132
- But there's about two tons
- of sand in him.
- 954
- 01:39:16,300 --> 01:39:19,552
- And he'll stand with a shooter
- when that's what's called for.
- 955
- 01:39:19,720 --> 01:39:23,973
- And he's smart too.
- He's about as intricate as they come.
- 956
- 01:39:26,101 --> 01:39:28,811
- You forget I already met the kid.
- 957
- 01:39:30,147 --> 01:39:32,857
- Hell, he surely thinks highly of you.
- 958
- 01:39:33,400 --> 01:39:36,152
- All of America thinks highly of me.
- 959
- 01:39:36,862 --> 01:39:40,114
- Still, not like you got two million names
- to snatch out of a sock...
- 960
- 01:39:40,282 --> 01:39:42,450
- whenever you need a third man.
- 961
- 01:39:45,954 --> 01:39:48,998
- I can see you trying to
- wear me down on this.
- 962
- 01:39:49,166 --> 01:39:51,334
- That's my main intention.
- 963
- 01:40:00,427 --> 01:40:03,096
- Robberies would be conceived
- but never carried out...
- 964
- 01:40:03,263 --> 01:40:06,849
- in Nebraska, Colorado and Missouri.
- 965
- 01:40:07,476 --> 01:40:08,559
- During this time...
- 966
- 01:40:08,727 --> 01:40:12,772
- Henry Craig enjoined Robert Ford to return
- to Elias' Grocery Store in Richmond...
- 967
- 01:40:12,940 --> 01:40:16,025
- and await instructions
- from Sheriff James Timberlake.
- 968
- 01:40:16,443 --> 01:40:18,694
- All right, three cans...
- 969
- 01:40:18,862 --> 01:40:22,615
- peaches. Two cans...
- 970
- 01:40:23,867 --> 01:40:26,410
- Two cans sifted peas.
- 971
- 01:40:26,703 --> 01:40:28,371
- One bottle...
- 972
- 01:40:31,166 --> 01:40:34,377
- Mary's Morning Tonic, and a half...
- 973
- 01:40:37,422 --> 01:40:40,007
- Half a sack of flour.
- 974
- 01:40:41,176 --> 01:40:43,219
- I'll be right with you.
- 975
- 01:40:59,236 --> 01:41:01,571
- I haven't seen any sign of him.
- 976
- 01:41:03,031 --> 01:41:05,408
- Well, do you know where he's living?
- 977
- 01:41:06,493 --> 01:41:07,869
- No.
- 978
- 01:41:09,037 --> 01:41:10,454
- No?
- 979
- 01:41:13,208 --> 01:41:15,960
- Well, I can't guess how he does it...
- 980
- 01:41:16,128 --> 01:41:20,423
- but he is always knowledgeable
- about what's going on.
- 981
- 01:41:20,591 --> 01:41:24,927
- He's gonna know I've been here with you.
- You ought to take that for granted.
- 982
- 01:41:27,431 --> 01:41:31,392
- And he will kill you if he gets the chance.
- 983
- 01:41:34,605 --> 01:41:37,190
- Are you willing to risk that?
- 984
- 01:41:41,778 --> 01:41:43,529
- Yes, I am.
- 985
- 01:41:46,617 --> 01:41:48,326
- I've been a nobody all my life.
- 986
- 01:41:49,286 --> 01:41:51,120
- I was the baby.
- 987
- 01:41:51,371 --> 01:41:54,790
- I was the one they made promises to
- that they never kept.
- 988
- 01:41:56,001 --> 01:42:00,713
- And ever since I can remember it,
- Jesse James has been as big as a tree.
- 989
- 01:42:04,134 --> 01:42:06,427
- I'm prepared for this, Jim...
- 990
- 01:42:07,304 --> 01:42:09,472
- and I'm gonna accomplish it.
- 991
- 01:42:09,723 --> 01:42:11,807
- I know I won't get
- but this one opportunity...
- 992
- 01:42:11,975 --> 01:42:14,894
- and you can bet your life
- I'm not gonna spoil it.
- 993
- 01:42:26,907 --> 01:42:27,990
- Well...
- 994
- 01:42:29,159 --> 01:42:31,160
- wait for your chance.
- 995
- 01:42:31,662 --> 01:42:35,081
- Don't let yourself be found alone with him,
- and do not...
- 996
- 01:42:35,958 --> 01:42:38,334
- let him get behind you.
- 997
- 01:43:06,488 --> 01:43:07,697
- You been chosen.
- 998
- 01:43:12,661 --> 01:43:14,245
- Well, what do you mean?
- 999
- 01:43:15,539 --> 01:43:18,040
- Well, your brother said that
- you might wanna join us.
- 1000
- 01:43:18,208 --> 01:43:21,544
- But maybe you like this grocery store
- more than you said you did.
- 1001
- 01:43:24,840 --> 01:43:26,882
- - So you missed me?
- - Oh, yeah.
- 1002
- 01:43:27,551 --> 01:43:30,219
- I been crying myself to sleep every night.
- 1003
- 01:43:39,771 --> 01:43:41,772
- Don't let him see us so much as wink.
- 1004
- 01:43:41,940 --> 01:43:45,776
- He's suspicious as a damn coyote,
- and he don't trust you one iota.
- 1005
- 01:43:46,486 --> 01:43:48,279
- - Well, I guess that makes...
- - Hey.
- 1006
- 01:43:48,447 --> 01:43:52,908
- He already put away Ed Miller. He said so
- like it was something piddly he'd done.
- 1007
- 01:44:33,909 --> 01:44:38,120
- If we're ever alone for more than a minute,
- I'd like a chance to talk to you further.
- 1008
- 01:45:17,869 --> 01:45:20,121
- They gave me ten days.
- 1009
- 01:45:24,000 --> 01:45:25,501
- For what?
- 1010
- 01:45:27,504 --> 01:45:29,338
- For arresting him.
- 1011
- 01:45:35,429 --> 01:45:37,096
- You and me, huh?
- 1012
- 01:45:40,725 --> 01:45:44,019
- It's gonna happen one way or another,
- Charley. It's gonna happen.
- 1013
- 01:45:44,187 --> 01:45:46,772
- So it might as well be us
- who get rich on it.
- 1014
- 01:45:46,940 --> 01:45:50,234
- - Bob, he's our friend.
- - He murdered Ed Miller.
- 1015
- 01:45:50,861 --> 01:45:53,988
- And he's gonna murder Liddil and Cummins
- if the chance ever comes.
- 1016
- 01:45:55,407 --> 01:46:00,035
- It seems to me Jesse's riding from
- man to man, saying goodbye to the gang.
- 1017
- 01:46:01,538 --> 01:46:03,914
- So your friendship could put you
- under the pansies.
- 1018
- 01:46:06,001 --> 01:46:10,463
- I'll grind it fine in my mind, Bob. I can't
- go any further than that right now.
- 1019
- 01:46:14,050 --> 01:46:15,468
- You'll come around.
- 1020
- 01:46:16,595 --> 01:46:19,054
- You think it's all made up, don't you?
- 1021
- 01:46:19,222 --> 01:46:22,558
- You think it's all yarns
- and newspaper stories.
- 1022
- 01:46:30,442 --> 01:46:32,776
- He's just a human being.
- 1023
- 01:46:41,036 --> 01:46:44,163
- From now on, you two
- won't go anywhere without me.
- 1024
- 01:46:44,915 --> 01:46:49,502
- From now on, you'll ask for my permission!
- From now on, you'll ask to be excused!
- 1025
- 01:47:45,433 --> 01:47:49,728
- Charley, take them horses
- around the barn. Bob, you go on inside.
- 1026
- 01:47:50,564 --> 01:47:51,897
- - Hello, Mary.
- - Hi.
- 1027
- 01:47:52,065 --> 01:47:55,234
- Look at this rotten parsnip
- I found in the compost heap.
- 1028
- 01:48:05,453 --> 01:48:07,329
- You never mentioned Bob would be here.
- 1029
- 01:48:11,626 --> 01:48:14,628
- Maybe he was saving it
- as a pleasant surprise.
- 1030
- 01:48:19,217 --> 01:48:21,885
- Got two cousins for company now.
- 1031
- 01:48:31,605 --> 01:48:33,897
- How it's gonna be is...
- 1032
- 01:48:34,274 --> 01:48:38,485
- we'll leave next Monday afternoon
- and ride down to Platte City.
- 1033
- 01:48:41,364 --> 01:48:43,282
- How far is that from Kansas City?
- 1034
- 01:48:44,993 --> 01:48:47,828
- Platte City's 30 miles south.
- 1035
- 01:48:49,456 --> 01:48:54,043
- You and me and Charley'll
- sleep in the woods overnight...
- 1036
- 01:48:54,544 --> 01:48:58,964
- and we'll strike the Wells Bank
- sometime before the court recesses.
- 1037
- 01:49:03,762 --> 01:49:06,722
- What time will that be exactly?
- 1038
- 01:49:12,354 --> 01:49:14,897
- Well, you don't need to know that.
- 1039
- 01:49:29,913 --> 01:49:32,873
- You know, I'm real comfortable
- with your brother.
- 1040
- 01:49:33,083 --> 01:49:35,626
- Hell, he's ugly as sin,
- he smells like a skunk...
- 1041
- 01:49:36,419 --> 01:49:39,880
- and he's so ignorant
- he couldn't drive nails in the snow...
- 1042
- 01:49:40,048 --> 01:49:42,549
- but he's sort of easy to be around.
- 1043
- 01:49:43,051 --> 01:49:45,844
- I can't say the same for you, Bob.
- 1044
- 01:49:49,265 --> 01:49:51,600
- Well, I'm sorry to hear you say that.
- 1045
- 01:49:53,478 --> 01:49:57,523
- You know how it is when you're
- with your girlfriend and the moon's out...
- 1046
- 01:49:57,691 --> 01:50:01,777
- and you know she wants to be kissed,
- even though she never said so?
- 1047
- 01:50:05,156 --> 01:50:06,615
- Yeah.
- 1048
- 01:50:09,327 --> 01:50:12,705
- Well, you're giving me signs
- that grieve my soul...
- 1049
- 01:50:13,581 --> 01:50:15,708
- and make me wonder...
- 1050
- 01:50:16,126 --> 01:50:18,460
- maybe your mind's
- been changed about me.
- 1051
- 01:50:18,795 --> 01:50:22,297
- Well, what do you want me to do?
- Swear my good faith on the Bible?
- 1052
- 01:50:39,774 --> 01:50:41,692
- You two having a spat?
- 1053
- 01:50:46,990 --> 01:50:49,491
- I was getting ready to be angry.
- 1054
- 01:50:54,956 --> 01:50:57,291
- Sit over here closer, kid.
- 1055
- 01:50:59,502 --> 01:51:00,794
- Come on.
- 1056
- 01:51:11,931 --> 01:51:14,266
- Charley, you'll stay with the animals.
- 1057
- 01:51:14,934 --> 01:51:16,852
- Me and the kid...
- 1058
- 01:51:17,020 --> 01:51:20,981
- will walk into that bank
- just before noon.
- 1059
- 01:51:22,859 --> 01:51:25,486
- Bob will move that cashier...
- 1060
- 01:51:26,029 --> 01:51:29,239
- away from the shotgun
- that's under the counter...
- 1061
- 01:51:29,407 --> 01:51:32,284
- and I'll creep up behind that cashier...
- 1062
- 01:51:32,452 --> 01:51:34,787
- and I'll cock his head back like so.
- 1063
- 01:51:35,038 --> 01:51:36,079
- And I'll say:
- 1064
- 01:51:36,247 --> 01:51:39,500
- "How come an off-scouring of creation
- like you is still sucking air...
- 1065
- 01:51:39,667 --> 01:51:41,502
- when so many of mine are in coffins?
- 1066
- 01:51:41,669 --> 01:51:44,963
- How did you get to reach 20
- without leaking out all over your clothes?"
- 1067
- 01:51:45,381 --> 01:51:49,259
- And if I don't like his attitude,
- I will slit that phildoodle so deep...
- 1068
- 01:51:49,552 --> 01:51:52,596
- he will flop on the floor like a fish.
- 1069
- 01:51:56,267 --> 01:51:58,644
- My God, what just happened?
- 1070
- 01:52:07,904 --> 01:52:11,240
- Boy, I could hear your gears grinding...
- 1071
- 01:52:11,574 --> 01:52:14,910
- hear your little motor wondering,
- "My gosh, what's next?
- 1072
- 01:52:15,078 --> 01:52:16,453
- What's happening to me?"
- 1073
- 01:52:18,331 --> 01:52:20,207
- You were precious to behold, Bob.
- 1074
- 01:52:20,375 --> 01:52:23,001
- You were white as spit in a cotton field.
- 1075
- 01:52:23,545 --> 01:52:26,004
- You got him. You got him.
- 1076
- 01:52:27,674 --> 01:52:31,718
- You wanna know how that feels?
- Unpleasant. I honestly can't recommend it.
- 1077
- 01:52:37,225 --> 01:52:39,685
- The old Charley looked stricken!
- 1078
- 01:52:40,353 --> 01:52:42,187
- I was. I was.
- 1079
- 01:52:42,355 --> 01:52:47,359
- "This is plumb unexpected," old Charley
- was thinking. "That done ruined my day."
- 1080
- 01:52:55,118 --> 01:52:56,577
- Hell. Hell.
- 1081
- 01:53:27,525 --> 01:53:31,403
- Jesse slept with Bob
- in the children's room that night.
- 1082
- 01:53:32,697 --> 01:53:35,324
- And Bob remained awake.
- 1083
- 01:53:38,161 --> 01:53:41,496
- He could see that there was a gun
- on the nightstand.
- 1084
- 01:53:42,373 --> 01:53:46,376
- He could imagine its cold nickel
- inside his grip...
- 1085
- 01:53:47,295 --> 01:53:50,797
- its two-pound weight
- reached out and aimed.
- 1086
- 01:54:21,913 --> 01:54:24,039
- I need to go to the privy.
- 1087
- 01:54:25,208 --> 01:54:28,627
- You think you do, but you don't.
- 1088
- 01:54:51,859 --> 01:54:54,027
- You wait for grace, now.
- 1089
- 01:54:54,946 --> 01:54:58,281
- - Thank you, Mama.
- - Thank you, Zee. God, that looks good.
- 1090
- 01:54:58,449 --> 01:55:00,075
- - Thank you, Zee.
- - You're welcome.
- 1091
- 01:55:00,243 --> 01:55:03,370
- Well, is this fit to eat
- or will it just do?
- 1092
- 01:55:06,249 --> 01:55:08,375
- Woman's cooking's
- always been a scandal.
- 1093
- 01:55:08,543 --> 01:55:10,919
- Cut her meat and the whole table moves.
- 1094
- 01:55:11,838 --> 01:55:13,922
- You want a biscuit?
- You gonna have a biscuit?
- 1095
- 01:55:14,090 --> 01:55:17,884
- Here's some butter.
- Come on. Come on.
- 1096
- 01:55:19,804 --> 01:55:21,096
- Oh, shoot.
- 1097
- 01:55:21,264 --> 01:55:25,100
- And so it went,
- Jesse was increasingly cavalier...
- 1098
- 01:55:25,268 --> 01:55:28,979
- merry, moody, fey...
- 1099
- 01:55:29,147 --> 01:55:31,273
- unpredictable.
- 1100
- 01:55:32,775 --> 01:55:35,944
- He camouflaged his depressions
- and derangements...
- 1101
- 01:55:36,112 --> 01:55:40,115
- with masquerades
- of extreme cordiality, courtesy...
- 1102
- 01:55:40,283 --> 01:55:43,035
- and goodwill towards others.
- 1103
- 01:55:44,120 --> 01:55:48,373
- But even as he jested,
- or tickled his boy in the ribs...
- 1104
- 01:55:48,541 --> 01:55:52,169
- Jesse would look over at Bob
- with melancholy eyes...
- 1105
- 01:55:52,336 --> 01:55:56,298
- as if the two were meshed
- in an intimate communication.
- 1106
- 01:55:59,135 --> 01:56:01,762
- Bob was certain that the man
- had unriddled him...
- 1107
- 01:56:01,929 --> 01:56:04,598
- had seen through his reasons
- for coming along...
- 1108
- 01:56:04,766 --> 01:56:08,769
- that Jesse could forecast each of
- Bob's possible moves and inclinations...
- 1109
- 01:56:08,936 --> 01:56:10,771
- and was only acting the innocent...
- 1110
- 01:56:10,938 --> 01:56:15,859
- in order to lull Bob
- into stupid tranquility and miscalculation.
- 1111
- 01:56:37,548 --> 01:56:39,758
- How long you been studying me?
- 1112
- 01:56:41,677 --> 01:56:44,387
- You're gonna break a lot of hearts.
- 1113
- 01:56:52,313 --> 01:56:53,522
- How do you mean?
- 1114
- 01:57:02,740 --> 01:57:04,491
- It's a present.
- 1115
- 01:57:09,163 --> 01:57:10,705
- It's heavy.
- 1116
- 01:57:11,290 --> 01:57:13,416
- Well, you gonna look inside?
- 1117
- 01:57:15,002 --> 01:57:16,795
- It's April Fools' Day, you know.
- 1118
- 01:57:17,380 --> 01:57:19,214
- It ain't no joke.
- 1119
- 01:57:26,722 --> 01:57:28,265
- Oh, such extravagance.
- 1120
- 01:57:29,809 --> 01:57:32,519
- Don't that nickel just shine, though?
- 1121
- 01:57:32,728 --> 01:57:34,271
- It's more than I could hope for.
- 1122
- 01:57:34,438 --> 01:57:37,232
- I figured that granddaddy Colt
- may blow into fragments...
- 1123
- 01:57:37,400 --> 01:57:40,193
- next time you try
- to squeeze the trigger.
- 1124
- 01:57:40,403 --> 01:57:42,821
- Well, you might have something there.
- 1125
- 01:57:43,322 --> 01:57:45,949
- Tom, supper's ready.
- 1126
- 01:57:47,118 --> 01:57:49,161
- I'll be right there, sweetheart.
- 1127
- 01:57:49,328 --> 01:57:51,621
- I might be too excited to eat.
- 1128
- 01:57:54,917 --> 01:57:57,419
- You know what John Newman Edwards
- once wrote about me?
- 1129
- 01:57:58,421 --> 01:58:01,256
- He said I didn't trust
- two men in 10,000...
- 1130
- 01:58:01,424 --> 01:58:04,092
- and even them I was cautious around.
- 1131
- 01:58:04,927 --> 01:58:06,928
- Government's sort of run me ragged.
- 1132
- 01:58:08,890 --> 01:58:11,892
- I'm going the long way around the barn
- to say that...
- 1133
- 01:58:12,059 --> 01:58:15,687
- I been feeling cornered
- and just plain ornery as of late...
- 1134
- 01:58:16,439 --> 01:58:21,109
- and I'd be pleased if you'd accept
- that gun as my way of apologizing.
- 1135
- 01:58:23,446 --> 01:58:26,281
- Heaven knows I'd be ornerier
- if I were in your position.
- 1136
- 01:58:26,449 --> 01:58:29,534
- No. No, I haven't been acting correctly.
- 1137
- 01:58:31,329 --> 01:58:34,873
- Seems I hardly recognize myself
- when I'm greased.
- 1138
- 01:58:37,960 --> 01:58:40,462
- I go on journeys out of my body...
- 1139
- 01:58:40,630 --> 01:58:44,716
- and look at my red hands
- and my mean face...
- 1140
- 01:58:45,468 --> 01:58:49,221
- and I wonder about that man
- that's gone so wrong.
- 1141
- 01:58:52,975 --> 01:58:56,019
- I've been becoming a problem to myself.
- 1142
- 01:59:08,658 --> 01:59:10,033
- Well...
- 1143
- 01:59:16,666 --> 01:59:21,336
- - I better wash my hands if supper's on.
- - Yeah, go ahead.
- 1144
- 01:59:34,684 --> 01:59:37,602
- The day before he died was Palm Sunday.
- 1145
- 01:59:38,646 --> 01:59:41,940
- And Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Howard,
- their two children...
- 1146
- 01:59:42,108 --> 01:59:44,192
- and their cousin Charles Johnson...
- 1147
- 01:59:44,360 --> 01:59:49,531
- strolled to the Second Presbyterian
- Church to attend the 10:00 service.
- 1148
- 01:59:51,909 --> 01:59:54,202
- Bob remained at the cottage...
- 1149
- 01:59:54,370 --> 01:59:57,789
- and slyly migrated from room to room.
- 1150
- 02:00:00,376 --> 02:00:02,210
- He walked into the master bedroom...
- 1151
- 02:00:02,378 --> 02:00:06,172
- and inventoried the clothes
- on the hangers and hooks.
- 1152
- 02:00:12,471 --> 02:00:15,807
- He sipped from the water glass
- on the vanity.
- 1153
- 02:00:18,144 --> 02:00:22,397
- He smelled the talcum and lilacs
- on Jesse's pillowcase.
- 1154
- 02:00:30,323 --> 02:00:32,532
- His fingers skittered over his ribs...
- 1155
- 02:00:32,700 --> 02:00:36,578
- to construe the scars
- where Jesse was twice shot.
- 1156
- 02:00:40,374 --> 02:00:44,961
- He manufactured a middle finger
- that was missing the top two knuckles.
- 1157
- 02:00:52,428 --> 02:00:55,347
- He imagined himself at 34.
- 1158
- 02:00:57,350 --> 02:01:00,352
- He imagined himself in a coffin.
- 1159
- 02:01:02,438 --> 02:01:04,147
- He considered possibilities...
- 1160
- 02:01:04,315 --> 02:01:07,609
- and everything wonderful
- that could come true.
- 1161
- 02:01:35,429 --> 02:01:37,347
- He's not gonna kill us.
- 1162
- 02:01:42,603 --> 02:01:44,771
- Yeah, he is.
- 1163
- 02:01:47,066 --> 02:01:49,567
- Well, I'll stay awake so he can't.
- 1164
- 02:02:02,915 --> 02:02:05,333
- You're imagining things.
- 1165
- 02:02:17,596 --> 02:02:19,556
- Ain't gonna be no Platte City.
- 1166
- 02:02:21,308 --> 02:02:23,935
- That's Jesse fooling with us.
- 1167
- 02:02:40,369 --> 02:02:42,579
- Go to sleep, Charley.
- 1168
- 02:03:16,197 --> 02:03:17,780
- Morning.
- 1169
- 02:03:21,577 --> 02:03:23,119
- Charley.
- 1170
- 02:03:52,942 --> 02:03:55,401
- Bob, how much did you want to eat?
- 1171
- 02:03:59,907 --> 02:04:02,325
- I'm feeling sort of peculiar.
- 1172
- 02:04:21,554 --> 02:04:24,013
- Why is it you're looking so interested?
- 1173
- 02:04:25,474 --> 02:04:28,393
- You think it's intelligent
- to go out like that...
- 1174
- 02:04:28,561 --> 02:04:30,395
- so all creation can see your guns?
- 1175
- 02:04:48,163 --> 02:04:49,581
- Hi.
- 1176
- 02:04:59,883 --> 02:05:02,802
- Come on, let's go see
- what your mama's doing.
- 1177
- 02:05:03,929 --> 02:05:06,055
- Timmy, get that door, would you?
- 1178
- 02:05:10,185 --> 02:05:13,354
- - Well, you lost your shoe, sweetheart.
- - Yeah, I did.
- 1179
- 02:05:13,522 --> 02:05:17,692
- That's gonna be a problem.
- They don't sell those one at a time.
- 1180
- 02:05:19,194 --> 02:05:21,237
- We lost a shoe, Mama.
- 1181
- 02:05:22,865 --> 02:05:25,408
- Will you put that up for Daddy,
- would you?
- 1182
- 02:05:28,495 --> 02:05:31,247
- - What you doing, you lose a shoe?
- - Yeah.
- 1183
- 02:05:47,973 --> 02:05:51,392
- It's only meant to go on top,
- to complement.
- 1184
- 02:05:51,644 --> 02:05:53,478
- Yeah, I know. Sometimes, l...
- 1185
- 02:06:18,087 --> 02:06:20,963
- Bob, everything's getting cold!
- 1186
- 02:06:21,674 --> 02:06:25,093
- - Where's Mary?
- - She's outside, darling.
- 1187
- 02:06:26,095 --> 02:06:27,887
- Mary?
- 1188
- 02:06:31,642 --> 02:06:34,185
- What do you think goes on
- in that noggin of his?
- 1189
- 02:06:37,189 --> 02:06:38,898
- Nothing.
- 1190
- 02:06:39,441 --> 02:06:42,276
- I was talking about his mind, not yours.
- 1191
- 02:06:43,195 --> 02:06:44,946
- Oh, yeah.
- 1192
- 02:06:45,364 --> 02:06:47,073
- Oh, I get it.
- 1193
- 02:07:42,504 --> 02:07:44,464
- Well, hello now.
- 1194
- 02:07:44,840 --> 02:07:47,884
- "The arrest and confession
- of Dick Liddil."
- 1195
- 02:07:53,140 --> 02:07:55,308
- You don't say so.
- 1196
- 02:08:09,615 --> 02:08:11,699
- That's very strange.
- 1197
- 02:08:12,159 --> 02:08:15,036
- Says here Dick surrendered
- three weeks ago.
- 1198
- 02:08:15,204 --> 02:08:17,830
- You must have been
- right in the neighborhood.
- 1199
- 02:08:18,499 --> 02:08:21,125
- Well, apparently, they kept it a secret.
- 1200
- 02:08:32,346 --> 02:08:35,389
- If I get to Kansas City soon,
- I'll ask somebody about it.
- 1201
- 02:09:16,098 --> 02:09:17,765
- You two ready?
- 1202
- 02:09:21,478 --> 02:09:24,146
- I will be, by noon.
- 1203
- 02:09:57,055 --> 02:09:59,724
- There is a ship
- She sails the sea
- 1204
- 02:09:59,892 --> 02:10:02,643
- She's loaded deep As deep can be
- 1205
- 02:10:02,811 --> 02:10:05,062
- But not as deep
- As the love I'm in
- 1206
- 02:10:05,647 --> 02:10:09,275
- I know not if I sink or swim
- 1207
- 02:10:10,319 --> 02:10:11,986
- The water is wide
- 1208
- 02:10:13,155 --> 02:10:19,702
- I can't cross o'er
- And neither have I wings to fly
- 1209
- 02:10:20,162 --> 02:10:23,956
- Give me a boat
- That can carry two
- 1210
- 02:10:24,124 --> 02:10:27,001
- Both shall row My love and I
- 1211
- 02:10:27,169 --> 02:10:30,630
- For love is gentle
- And love is kind
- 1212
- 02:10:30,797 --> 02:10:33,799
- Sweetest flower
- When first it's new
- 1213
- 02:10:33,967 --> 02:10:37,553
- But love grows old
- And waxes cold
- 1214
- 02:10:37,721 --> 02:10:40,973
- And fades away
- Like the morning dew
- 1215
- 02:10:41,141 --> 02:10:44,185
- There is a ship
- She sails the sea
- 1216
- 02:10:44,353 --> 02:10:47,104
- I guess I'll take my guns off...
- 1217
- 02:10:47,439 --> 02:10:49,440
- for fear the neighbors might spy them.
- 1218
- 02:11:22,724 --> 02:11:25,184
- Don't that picture look dusty?
- 1219
- 02:13:07,287 --> 02:13:10,289
- What have...? What have you done?
- 1220
- 02:13:12,709 --> 02:13:14,335
- Jesse.
- 1221
- 02:13:19,883 --> 02:13:20,925
- Jesse?
- 1222
- 02:13:22,052 --> 02:13:24,178
- Jesse? Jesse?
- 1223
- 02:13:24,930 --> 02:13:26,806
- Jesse!
- 1224
- 02:13:27,808 --> 02:13:29,892
- No!
- 1225
- 02:13:34,064 --> 02:13:36,398
- No. Jess...
- 1226
- 02:13:37,025 --> 02:13:41,403
- Come back. Oh, come back.
- 1227
- 02:13:43,532 --> 02:13:47,701
- Oh, Jesse! No!
- 1228
- 02:13:48,203 --> 02:13:52,123
- Oh, Bob. Have you done this?!
- 1229
- 02:13:52,332 --> 02:13:54,708
- I swear to God I didn't.
- 1230
- 02:13:55,710 --> 02:13:57,128
- It was an accident, Zee.
- 1231
- 02:13:59,339 --> 02:14:02,716
- Come on. Pistol went off accidentally.
- 1232
- 02:14:48,054 --> 02:14:49,263
- Put my name.
- 1233
- 02:14:49,431 --> 02:14:51,891
- Why, what'd you do? I shot him.
- 1234
- 02:14:59,107 --> 02:15:01,108
- You might wanna keep that.
- 1235
- 02:15:39,064 --> 02:15:41,148
- Thank you all very much.
- 1236
- 02:15:49,324 --> 02:15:51,825
- The resulting prints
- sold for 2 dollars apiece...
- 1237
- 02:15:51,993 --> 02:15:56,580
- and were the models for the lithographed
- covers on a number of magazines.
- 1238
- 02:16:02,128 --> 02:16:07,341
- Soon a thousand strangers were making
- spellbound pilgrimages to the cottage...
- 1239
- 02:16:07,676 --> 02:16:12,221
- or were venerating the iced remains
- in Seidenfaden's cooling room.
- 1240
- 02:16:13,139 --> 02:16:17,643
- The man who offered 30,000 dollars for the
- body of President Garfield's assassin...
- 1241
- 02:16:17,811 --> 02:16:21,689
- sent a telegram to City Marshal
- Enos Craig offering 50,000...
- 1242
- 02:16:21,856 --> 02:16:24,191
- for the body
- of Jesse Woodson James...
- 1243
- 02:16:24,359 --> 02:16:27,111
- so that he could go around the country
- with it...
- 1244
- 02:16:29,531 --> 02:16:34,493
- or at least sell it to P.T. Barnum
- for his Greatest Show on Earth.
- 1245
- 02:16:38,540 --> 02:16:41,667
- Another photograph was taken
- of the renowned American bandit...
- 1246
- 02:16:41,835 --> 02:16:44,420
- nestled in his bed of ice.
- 1247
- 02:16:44,587 --> 02:16:48,882
- And it was this shot that was most
- available in sundries and apothecaries...
- 1248
- 02:16:49,050 --> 02:16:52,720
- to be viewed in a stereoscope
- alongside the sphinx...
- 1249
- 02:16:52,887 --> 02:16:56,890
- the Taj Mahal,
- and the catacombs of Rome.
- 1250
- 02:17:22,083 --> 02:17:24,043
- Hello, here!
- 1251
- 02:17:24,252 --> 02:17:26,837
- "The arrest and confession
- of Dick Liddil."
- 1252
- 02:17:27,005 --> 02:17:32,134
- Young man, I thought you told me
- you didn't know Dick had surrendered.
- 1253
- 02:17:32,302 --> 02:17:36,180
- You mean he did? I didn't know.
- 1254
- 02:17:37,098 --> 02:17:38,974
- But I knew I had not fooled him.
- 1255
- 02:17:39,142 --> 02:17:42,978
- And he knew, as well as I, in that moment
- that I intended to bring him to justice.
- 1256
- 02:17:43,938 --> 02:17:47,483
- But he would not kill me
- in the presence of his wife and children.
- 1257
- 02:17:47,650 --> 02:17:50,903
- And so he was smiling
- to throw me off-guard.
- 1258
- 02:17:54,115 --> 02:17:56,784
- Well, it's all right, anyway, Bob.
- 1259
- 02:17:58,661 --> 02:18:01,580
- It was widely felt that
- Bob possessed some acting talent...
- 1260
- 02:18:01,748 --> 02:18:03,999
- and Charley, not a jot.
- 1261
- 02:18:04,167 --> 02:18:07,127
- That picture's awful dusty.
- 1262
- 02:18:07,921 --> 02:18:11,048
- Charley was only expected
- not to slouch or mutter...
- 1263
- 02:18:11,216 --> 02:18:15,886
- and to transport his sicknesses
- to the alley before letting them go.
- 1264
- 02:18:45,291 --> 02:18:47,167
- And that's...
- 1265
- 02:18:47,710 --> 02:18:50,379
- how I killed Jesse James.
- 1266
- 02:18:53,842 --> 02:18:57,386
- By October of 1883, Bob Ford
- could be identified correctly...
- 1267
- 02:18:57,554 --> 02:19:01,849
- by more citizens than could
- the president of the United States.
- 1268
- 02:19:02,517 --> 02:19:07,229
- He was as renowned at 20 as Jesse was
- after 14 years of grand larceny.
- 1269
- 02:19:07,397 --> 02:19:09,606
- You won't get your hooks into me.
- 1270
- 02:19:10,150 --> 02:19:14,862
- That's right. That's right.
- Sit next to your boyfriend. Jezebel.
- 1271
- 02:19:15,029 --> 02:19:17,156
- Charley was increasingly superstitious...
- 1272
- 02:19:17,323 --> 02:19:20,033
- increasingly subject
- to the advice of soothsayers...
- 1273
- 02:19:20,201 --> 02:19:24,204
- who promised to cure his miseries
- with pipe smoke and poultices.
- 1274
- 02:19:24,372 --> 02:19:27,666
- You been spending too much time
- with Gypsies, Charley.
- 1275
- 02:19:33,381 --> 02:19:34,715
- Shit.
- 1276
- 02:19:39,053 --> 02:19:41,638
- The picture's awful dusty.
- 1277
- 02:19:42,056 --> 02:19:45,893
- Something began to change
- in Charley's stage portrayal of Jesse.
- 1278
- 02:19:46,060 --> 02:19:48,604
- His gait seemed more practiced.
- 1279
- 02:19:48,771 --> 02:19:52,065
- His voice was spookily similar
- to the man's.
- 1280
- 02:19:52,233 --> 02:19:54,651
- His newly suggested dialogue
- was analogous...
- 1281
- 02:19:54,819 --> 02:19:57,863
- to a script Jesse might have originated.
- 1282
- 02:20:00,658 --> 02:20:03,076
- He began to look at his younger brother
- with spite...
- 1283
- 02:20:03,244 --> 02:20:05,913
- as if he suspected that
- in some future performance...
- 1284
- 02:20:06,080 --> 02:20:10,584
- he might present himself
- to a live cartridge in Robert Ford's gun.
- 1285
- 02:20:11,920 --> 02:20:13,754
- Murderer!
- 1286
- 02:20:14,088 --> 02:20:15,839
- Cur!
- 1287
- 02:20:16,466 --> 02:20:18,258
- Coward!
- 1288
- 02:20:21,763 --> 02:20:26,308
- You wanna investigate my courage?
- Do you?
- 1289
- 02:20:26,726 --> 02:20:30,479
- Find out! Find out!
- 1290
- 02:20:35,109 --> 02:20:36,985
- Nobody.
- 1291
- 02:20:51,584 --> 02:20:53,377
- Coward!
- 1292
- 02:21:18,570 --> 02:21:24,157
- By his own approximation, Bob
- assassinated Jesse James over 800 times.
- 1293
- 02:21:24,325 --> 02:21:28,078
- He suspected no one in history
- had ever so often or so publicly...
- 1294
- 02:21:28,246 --> 02:21:31,456
- recapitulated an act of betrayal.
- 1295
- 02:21:36,671 --> 02:21:39,423
- Bob always challenged
- the allegations of cowardice...
- 1296
- 02:21:39,591 --> 02:21:42,509
- but Charley seemed
- to agree with them.
- 1297
- 02:21:42,802 --> 02:21:46,555
- He spoke of Mrs. Zee James
- as certain priests might the Madonna...
- 1298
- 02:21:46,723 --> 02:21:49,850
- and composed long
- soul-describing letters to her...
- 1299
- 02:21:50,018 --> 02:21:52,185
- begging her forgiveness...
- 1300
- 02:21:53,521 --> 02:21:56,106
- none of which he mailed.
- 1301
- 02:22:23,968 --> 02:22:29,556
- Charley Ford became all that his countrymen
- wanted an assassin of Jesse James to be.
- 1302
- 02:22:33,853 --> 02:22:39,733
- Jesse James was a man
- Who killed many men
- 1303
- 02:22:40,902 --> 02:22:45,364
- He robbed the Glendale train
- 1304
- 02:22:45,573 --> 02:22:51,411
- And he stole from the rich
- And he gave to the poor
- 1305
- 02:22:51,663 --> 02:22:56,583
- He had a hand
- And a heart and a brain
- 1306
- 02:22:57,418 --> 02:23:02,923
- Well, Jesse had a wife
- To mourn for his life
- 1307
- 02:23:03,091 --> 02:23:08,178
- Three children They were brave
- 1308
- 02:23:08,346 --> 02:23:13,934
- But that dirty little coward
- Who shot Mr. Howard
- 1309
- 02:23:14,185 --> 02:23:19,272
- Has laid Jesse James in his grave
- 1310
- 02:23:20,316 --> 02:23:25,320
- It was Robert Ford
- That dirty little coward
- 1311
- 02:23:26,072 --> 02:23:30,450
- I wonder how does he feel
- 1312
- 02:23:30,618 --> 02:23:36,373
- For he ate at Jesse's bread
- And he slept in Jesse's bed
- 1313
- 02:23:36,541 --> 02:23:41,586
- And he laid poor Jesse in his grave
- 1314
- 02:23:42,046 --> 02:23:47,592
- Well, Jesse had a wife
- To mourn for his life
- 1315
- 02:23:47,760 --> 02:23:52,639
- Three children They were brave
- 1316
- 02:23:52,807 --> 02:23:58,478
- But that dirty little coward
- Who shot Mr. Howard
- 1317
- 02:23:58,646 --> 02:24:02,816
- Has laid poor Jesse in his grave
- 1318
- 02:24:14,328 --> 02:24:16,371
- I'm Robert Ford.
- 1319
- 02:24:27,091 --> 02:24:30,844
- It was two children, not three.
- 1320
- 02:24:42,190 --> 02:24:43,523
- Hey.
- 1321
- 02:24:44,442 --> 02:24:47,027
- You get yourself home, son, okay?
- 1322
- 02:24:47,695 --> 02:24:51,740
- Come on. Get out of here.
- Get out of my place.
- 1323
- 02:25:23,523 --> 02:25:25,732
- He thought, at his angriest...
- 1324
- 02:25:25,900 --> 02:25:29,653
- about visiting the kin
- of Jesse's slaughtered victims:
- 1325
- 02:25:31,614 --> 02:25:34,908
- Mrs. William Westfall in Plattsburg...
- 1326
- 02:25:37,411 --> 02:25:40,497
- the Wymore family in Clay County...
- 1327
- 02:25:45,628 --> 02:25:49,923
- perhaps even Mrs. Joseph Heywood
- in Northfield, Minnesota.
- 1328
- 02:25:53,010 --> 02:25:56,012
- He would go to their homes
- and give his name as Robert Ford...
- 1329
- 02:25:56,180 --> 02:25:59,140
- the man who killed Jesse James.
- 1330
- 02:26:00,601 --> 02:26:03,645
- He imagined they would
- be grateful to him.
- 1331
- 02:26:54,614 --> 02:26:59,618
- It was only with Dorothy Evans
- that Bob spoke revealingly or plainly...
- 1332
- 02:26:59,785 --> 02:27:04,205
- and it was with her that he spoke of
- things he didn't know he knew.
- 1333
- 02:27:25,853 --> 02:27:29,940
- He told her that he had no real memory
- of the shooting and its aftermath.
- 1334
- 02:27:30,107 --> 02:27:33,985
- He could remember lifting the gun
- that Jesse had given him...
- 1335
- 02:27:34,695 --> 02:27:38,740
- and then it was Good Friday and he was
- reading about the funeral proceedings...
- 1336
- 02:27:38,908 --> 02:27:41,451
- as if they'd happened a long time ago.
- 1337
- 02:27:43,037 --> 02:27:45,163
- Why did you kill him?
- 1338
- 02:27:49,460 --> 02:27:51,503
- Well, he was gonna kill me.
- 1339
- 02:27:56,717 --> 02:27:59,928
- So you were scared
- and that's the only reason?
- 1340
- 02:28:02,682 --> 02:28:04,057
- Yeah.
- 1341
- 02:28:04,558 --> 02:28:06,601
- And the reward money.
- 1342
- 02:28:12,400 --> 02:28:15,235
- Do you want me to change the subject?
- 1343
- 02:28:23,411 --> 02:28:25,745
- You know what I expected?
- 1344
- 02:28:26,789 --> 02:28:28,790
- Applause.
- 1345
- 02:28:31,377 --> 02:28:35,547
- I was only 20 years old then.
- I couldn't see how it would look to people.
- 1346
- 02:28:39,635 --> 02:28:42,303
- I was surprised by what happened.
- 1347
- 02:28:43,389 --> 02:28:45,348
- They didn't applaud.
- 1348
- 02:28:48,769 --> 02:28:50,645
- He was ashamed of his boasting...
- 1349
- 02:28:50,813 --> 02:28:53,690
- his pretensions of courage
- and ruthlessness.
- 1350
- 02:28:53,983 --> 02:28:57,777
- He was sorry about his cold-bloodedness,
- his dispassion...
- 1351
- 02:28:59,405 --> 02:29:03,783
- his inability to express
- what he now believed was the case:
- 1352
- 02:29:06,370 --> 02:29:09,414
- That he truly regretted killing Jesse...
- 1353
- 02:29:10,166 --> 02:29:13,168
- that he missed the man
- as much as anybody...
- 1354
- 02:29:13,711 --> 02:29:16,838
- and wished his murder
- hadn't been necessary.
- 1355
- 02:29:36,317 --> 02:29:38,401
- Even as he circulated his saloon...
- 1356
- 02:29:38,569 --> 02:29:42,322
- he knew that the smiles disappeared
- when he passed by.
- 1357
- 02:29:43,449 --> 02:29:45,283
- He received so many menacing letters...
- 1358
- 02:29:45,451 --> 02:29:48,870
- that he could read them
- without any reaction except curiosity.
- 1359
- 02:29:52,666 --> 02:29:57,504
- He kept to his apartment all day,
- flipping over playing cards...
- 1360
- 02:29:59,006 --> 02:30:03,510
- looking at his destiny
- in every king and jack.
- 1361
- 02:30:07,681 --> 02:30:12,018
- Edward O'Kelly came up from Bachelor
- at 1 p.m. on the 8th.
- 1362
- 02:30:13,479 --> 02:30:17,398
- He had no grand scheme, no strategy...
- 1363
- 02:30:17,566 --> 02:30:19,984
- no agreement with higher authorities...
- 1364
- 02:30:20,152 --> 02:30:22,904
- nothing beyond
- a vague longing for glory...
- 1365
- 02:30:23,989 --> 02:30:28,243
- and a generalized wish
- for revenge against Robert Ford.
- 1366
- 02:30:36,043 --> 02:30:39,295
- - How'd it go last night?
- - Not so bad.
- 1367
- 02:30:42,550 --> 02:30:43,925
- The other one.
- 1368
- 02:30:46,428 --> 02:30:49,222
- Edward O'Kelly would be ordered
- to serve a life sentence...
- 1369
- 02:30:49,390 --> 02:30:52,267
- in the Colorado Penitentiary
- for second-degree murder.
- 1370
- 02:30:52,434 --> 02:30:55,228
- Over 7000 signatures
- would eventually be gathered...
- 1371
- 02:30:55,396 --> 02:30:57,647
- on a petition asking for
- O'Kelly's release...
- 1372
- 02:30:57,815 --> 02:31:02,819
- and in 1902, Governor James B. Orman
- would pardon the man.
- 1373
- 02:31:03,404 --> 02:31:07,824
- You shouldn't be wearing that stickpin
- again there, Bob. Opals are unlucky.
- 1374
- 02:31:09,243 --> 02:31:13,454
- My luck's not very good as it is. I don't
- think an opal's gonna change that much.
- 1375
- 02:31:14,415 --> 02:31:15,832
- I hear you.
- 1376
- 02:31:29,430 --> 02:31:31,264
- There would be no eulogies for Bob...
- 1377
- 02:31:32,975 --> 02:31:37,103
- no photographs of his body
- would be sold in sundries stores...
- 1378
- 02:31:37,771 --> 02:31:42,150
- no people would crowd the streets
- in the rain to see his funeral cortege...
- 1379
- 02:31:43,903 --> 02:31:46,863
- no biographies would be written
- about him...
- 1380
- 02:31:47,031 --> 02:31:49,616
- no children named after him.
- 1381
- 02:31:51,160 --> 02:31:55,914
- No one would ever pay 25 cents
- to stand in the rooms he grew up in.
- 1382
- 02:32:00,461 --> 02:32:02,170
- Hello, Bob.
- 1383
- 02:32:03,631 --> 02:32:07,800
- The shotgun would ignite,
- and Ella Mae would scream...
- 1384
- 02:32:08,636 --> 02:32:12,305
- but Robert Ford would only lay
- on the floor and look at the ceiling...
- 1385
- 02:32:12,473 --> 02:32:14,974
- the light going out of his eyes...
- 1386
- 02:32:15,142 --> 02:32:17,852
- before he could find the right words.
- 1387
