1
00:01:11,910 --> 00:01:13,710
He was growing into middle age...

2
00:01:13,710 --> 00:01:17,310
and was living then in a bungalow
on Woodland Avenue.

3
00:01:19,210 --> 00:01:21,410
He installed himself in a rocking chair...

4
00:01:21,510 --> 00:01:23,610
and smoked a cigar down
in the evenings...

5
00:01:23,810 --> 00:01:26,710
as his wife wiped her pink hands
on an apron...

6
00:01:26,910 --> 00:01:30,010
and reported happily
on their two children.

7
00:01:36,010 --> 00:01:37,610
His children knew his legs...

8
00:01:37,910 --> 00:01:41,110
the sting of his mustache
against their cheeks.

9
00:01:41,910 --> 00:01:47,110
They didn't know how their father made his living
or why they so often moved.

10
00:01:47,810 --> 00:01:50,710
They didn't even know their father's name.

11
00:01:53,010 --> 00:01:56,910
He was listed in the city directory
as Thomas Howard.

12
00:01:57,110 --> 00:01:59,510
And he went everywhere unrecognized...

13
00:01:59,710 --> 00:02:02,710
and lunched with Kansas City
shopkeepers and merchants...

14
00:02:03,310 --> 00:02:06,210
calling himself a cattleman
or a commodities investor...

15
00:02:07,210 --> 00:02:10,710
someone rich and leisured
who had the common touch.

16
00:02:13,810 --> 00:02:17,310
He had two incompletely healed
bullet holes in his chest...

17
00:02:17,410 --> 00:02:19,010
and another in his thigh.

18
00:02:19,210 --> 00:02:21,710
He was missing the nub
of his left middle finger...

19
00:02:21,910 --> 00:02:25,110
and was cautious,
lest that mutilation be seen.

20
00:02:26,910 --> 00:02:30,610
He also had a condition that was referred to
as "granulated eyelids"...

21
00:02:30,810 --> 00:02:33,810
and it caused him to blink
more than usual...

22
00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:38,710
as if he found creation
slightly more than he could accept.

23
00:02:40,310 --> 00:02:42,910
Rooms seemed hotter
when he was in them.

24
00:02:43,410 --> 00:02:45,110
Rains fell straighter.

25
00:02:45,710 --> 00:02:47,010
Clocks slowed.

26
00:02:47,710 --> 00:02:50,010
Sounds were amplified.

27
00:02:51,110 --> 00:02:53,910
He considered himself
a Southern loyalist and guerrilla...

28
00:02:54,010 --> 00:02:57,010
in a Civil War that never ended.

29
00:02:57,210 --> 00:03:02,510
He regretted neither his robberies,
nor the 17 murders that he laid claim to.

30
00:03:09,110 --> 00:03:13,310
He had seen another summer under
in Kansas City, Missouri...

31
00:03:13,510 --> 00:03:17,810
and on September 5th
in the year 1881...

32
00:03:18,910 --> 00:03:21,610
he was 34 years old.

33
00:03:28,410 --> 00:03:32,310
You just... You just slide them things
right in there, right in your sleeve...

34
00:03:32,410 --> 00:03:35,510
and then, when you get ready,
you just shake it out.

35
00:03:35,610 --> 00:03:38,010
Like that, right there. You shake it out.

36
00:03:41,910 --> 00:03:45,510
Mary Todd Lincoln, tyrant's wife,
fall into hysterics when the moon was full.

37
00:03:45,710 --> 00:03:48,310
President's men would tie her up
with hay-baling wire...

38
00:03:48,410 --> 00:03:50,610
keep her from ripping
her husband's ears off.

39
00:03:50,810 --> 00:03:55,310
You never heard word one about the wife
of the Confederacy's Jefferson Davis, did you?

40
00:03:55,510 --> 00:03:56,810
- I didn't.
- No, you didn't.

41
00:03:57,510 --> 00:03:59,910
He did his duty by her.

42
00:04:01,310 --> 00:04:04,810
- Oh, my God, I'm speaking to children.
- No, I get it, I get it, I get it.

43
00:04:04,910 --> 00:04:09,110
The president of the Confederacy discerned
his wife's needs and satisfied them...

44
00:04:09,410 --> 00:04:13,910
with the utmost skill
and the utmost courtesy.

45
00:04:15,810 --> 00:04:19,210
- Charley, you spit all over my boot.
- Sorry. Sorry, sorry, Jesse.

46
00:04:19,910 --> 00:04:22,310
- Here, get it off.
- I'll wipe it... I'll wipe it off.

47
00:04:23,310 --> 00:04:26,910
But Abraham Lincoln probably sent his wife
on a shopping expedition.

48
00:04:27,110 --> 00:04:30,810
- A three-act play.
- With money stole from us.

49
00:04:31,910 --> 00:04:33,810
Chow!

50
00:04:36,610 --> 00:04:39,710
I think insanity run on both sides
of that Lincoln family.

51
00:04:39,810 --> 00:04:41,710
You're right about that.

52
00:04:41,910 --> 00:04:44,510
The river...
You jump in the river.

53
00:04:47,010 --> 00:04:50,010
- Chow!
- Don't be shy now, Dick.

54
00:04:50,310 --> 00:04:52,710
- One more piece of meat.
- When you diddle a lot...

55
00:04:52,810 --> 00:04:55,310
There's a good piece of bacon fat
in there for him.

56
00:05:30,710 --> 00:05:32,310
Excuse me.

57
00:05:32,810 --> 00:05:36,410
I see I've traipsed right on in
and interrupted you.

58
00:05:38,810 --> 00:05:40,510
Who are you, then?

59
00:05:41,110 --> 00:05:43,010
Bob Ford.

60
00:05:44,410 --> 00:05:45,610
Charley's brother?

61
00:05:47,110 --> 00:05:48,510
Yeah.

62
00:06:02,610 --> 00:06:05,810
I was lying when I said
I just happened down here.

63
00:06:06,010 --> 00:06:10,310
I've been looking for you. I feel lousy
I didn't say so at the outset.

64
00:06:12,810 --> 00:06:14,410
Folks take me for a nincompoop...

65
00:06:14,610 --> 00:06:18,310
on account of the shabby first impression I make,
whereas I think of myself...

66
00:06:18,510 --> 00:06:20,910
as being just a rung down
from the James brothers.

67
00:06:21,810 --> 00:06:24,810
I was hoping if I ran into you
aside from those peckerwoods...

68
00:06:25,010 --> 00:06:29,010
I could show you how special I am.

69
00:06:40,510 --> 00:06:44,510
I honestly believe I'm destined
for great things, Mr. James.

70
00:06:44,610 --> 00:06:49,010
I got qualities that don't come shining
through right at the outset.

71
00:06:51,610 --> 00:06:54,810
You give me a chance, I'll get the job done.
I guarantee you that.

72
00:07:00,110 --> 00:07:02,310
Hey, Dick, is it true you diddled a squaw?

73
00:07:04,610 --> 00:07:08,810
Come on, you can tell me.
I've always wanted to lay down with a redskin.

74
00:07:09,410 --> 00:07:10,810
Well, Charley...

75
00:07:12,310 --> 00:07:15,710
there's a feeling that comes over you...

76
00:07:15,910 --> 00:07:19,510
getting inside a woman whose hands
has scalped a congregation.

77
00:07:19,710 --> 00:07:22,510
There's this thunderous sound
that comes from their cooch...

78
00:07:22,710 --> 00:07:26,010
on account of the fact
that they birth a child standing upright...

79
00:07:26,110 --> 00:07:29,110
- like a wild animal.
- What's it sound like?

80
00:07:29,310 --> 00:07:33,610
Whatever a thunderous cooch sounds
like there, Charley. I don't know.

81
00:07:34,210 --> 00:07:35,610
No.

82
00:07:35,810 --> 00:07:38,210
They got a noisy quim
on account of the fact that...

83
00:07:38,310 --> 00:07:43,210
they use their cunnis as a saddlebag
to carry sundries across the plains.

84
00:07:44,610 --> 00:07:47,310
Come on, what'd it really feel like?
Did it feel good?

85
00:07:47,510 --> 00:07:49,910
Come on, fess up, now.

86
00:07:50,010 --> 00:07:51,910
I like you, Charley.

87
00:07:53,310 --> 00:07:55,510
I like you too, Charley.

88
00:07:56,010 --> 00:07:57,010
Well...

89
00:07:59,010 --> 00:08:01,010
You're not so special, Mr. Ford.

90
00:08:02,010 --> 00:08:05,910
You're just like any other tyro
who's prinked himself up for an escapade.

91
00:08:06,110 --> 00:08:09,910
Hoping to be a gunslinger like them
nickel books are about.

92
00:08:10,910 --> 00:08:13,810
You may as well quench your mind of it...

93
00:08:15,010 --> 00:08:18,110
because you don't have the ingredients, son.

94
00:08:33,310 --> 00:08:35,610
Well, I'm sorry to hear you feel that way...

95
00:08:35,810 --> 00:08:39,010
as I put such stock in your opinions.

96
00:08:44,210 --> 00:08:48,310
As for me being a gunslinger, I've just got
this one granddaddy Paterson Colt...

97
00:08:48,410 --> 00:08:50,910
and a borrowed belt to stick it in.

98
00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:54,410
But I also got an appetite
for greater things.

99
00:08:57,610 --> 00:09:01,710
I hoped by joining up with you,
it'd put me that much closer to getting them.

100
00:09:05,110 --> 00:09:07,210
Well, what am I supposed to say to that?

101
00:09:09,610 --> 00:09:11,310
Let me be your sidekick tonight.

102
00:09:11,510 --> 00:09:12,610
Sidekick?

103
00:09:12,810 --> 00:09:14,910
So you can examine my grit and intelligence.

104
00:09:15,110 --> 00:09:16,810
I don't know what it is about you...

105
00:09:17,010 --> 00:09:20,010
but the more you talk,
the more you give me the willies.

106
00:09:20,510 --> 00:09:24,110
Now, I don't believe I want you anywhere
within earshot this evening, okay?

107
00:09:24,310 --> 00:09:25,810
You understand?

108
00:09:29,910 --> 00:09:33,310
- Well, I'm sorry...
- Why don't you just get now? Scat.

109
00:09:39,510 --> 00:09:40,610
All right.

110
00:09:43,310 --> 00:09:46,910
I was with a girl once, wasn't a squaw.

111
00:09:47,110 --> 00:09:48,910
But she was pretty.

112
00:09:49,310 --> 00:09:53,710
She had yellow hair like a...

113
00:09:55,410 --> 00:09:57,210
Oh, like something.

114
00:09:57,510 --> 00:10:00,410
Like hair bobbed from a ray of sunlight?

115
00:10:00,510 --> 00:10:03,510
Yeah. Yeah, like that.

116
00:10:04,110 --> 00:10:06,810
Boy, you...
You talk good.

117
00:10:07,010 --> 00:10:09,710
You can hide things in vocabulary.

118
00:10:11,610 --> 00:10:16,210
Maybe you and me could write her a note,
send it by post?

119
00:10:16,410 --> 00:10:18,110
See, all you gotta do, Ed...

120
00:10:18,210 --> 00:10:21,510
is predict her needs
and beat her to the punch.

121
00:10:23,210 --> 00:10:27,510
Well, this girl, she has a real specific job.

122
00:10:28,110 --> 00:10:30,610
- Specific?
- We was only together once.

123
00:10:30,810 --> 00:10:32,010
She...

124
00:10:32,710 --> 00:10:37,310
She was afraid of lightning,
and she came up under the wagon and...

125
00:10:37,410 --> 00:10:40,410
just cuddled right up to me.

126
00:10:40,510 --> 00:10:42,510
She give me a kind price too.

127
00:10:44,510 --> 00:10:48,610
Well, I'll be. That is specific.

128
00:10:51,310 --> 00:10:53,610
Yeah, sure,
she'd been with other people...

129
00:10:53,810 --> 00:10:55,810
but the kind of things she said to me...

130
00:10:56,010 --> 00:10:59,110
people just don't say
unless they really mean it.

131
00:11:00,110 --> 00:11:02,410
My love said she would marry only me

132
00:11:03,210 --> 00:11:06,310
And Jove himself could not make her care.

133
00:11:06,410 --> 00:11:09,010
For what women say to lovers, you'll agree

134
00:11:09,210 --> 00:11:13,310
One writes on running water or on air.

135
00:11:14,810 --> 00:11:18,410
My God, that's good.
Let's write her that.

136
00:11:19,410 --> 00:11:21,010
No.

137
00:11:21,310 --> 00:11:23,710
Poetry don't work on whores.

138
00:11:27,310 --> 00:11:28,910
How do you do?

139
00:11:31,310 --> 00:11:33,410
Am I too late to wish you a happy birthday?

140
00:11:36,010 --> 00:11:37,210
How'd you know?

141
00:11:37,810 --> 00:11:40,110
You'd be surprised
at what I got stored away.

142
00:11:40,210 --> 00:11:42,810
I'm an authority on the James boys.

143
00:11:43,010 --> 00:11:44,510
Is you?

144
00:11:46,210 --> 00:11:50,710
Well... Well, your brother Frank and I,
we just had a real nice visit.

145
00:11:50,910 --> 00:11:55,010
Just chit-chatting about this and that,
right over there.

146
00:11:55,410 --> 00:11:58,310
And must've been a hundred subjects entertained...

147
00:11:58,510 --> 00:12:00,910
Good Lord, you know what this stew needs?

148
00:12:05,610 --> 00:12:07,210
Dumplings?

149
00:12:07,410 --> 00:12:09,110
Noodles.

150
00:12:09,510 --> 00:12:12,910
You eat yourself some noodle stew
and your clock'll tick all night.

151
00:12:13,010 --> 00:12:16,910
You ever see that woman up in Fayette?
Suck noodles up her nose.

152
00:12:18,810 --> 00:12:20,510
- In Fayette?
- I don't believe I have.

153
00:12:20,610 --> 00:12:23,010
You never heard of her, huh?

154
00:12:23,810 --> 00:12:26,510
You got canals up there
you never dreamed of.

155
00:12:30,610 --> 00:12:32,310
I don't like to harp on a subject...

156
00:12:32,510 --> 00:12:35,110
I don't care who comes with me.
Never have.

157
00:12:35,310 --> 00:12:37,910
That's why they call me gregarious.

158
00:12:39,310 --> 00:12:42,510
I hear you and young Stovepipe here
had a real nice visit.

159
00:12:43,010 --> 00:12:47,010
Your boys have got about a acre of lumber
to haul, dingus.

160
00:12:47,410 --> 00:12:49,710
You better goose them down yonder.

161
00:12:59,910 --> 00:13:04,110
The James Gang committed over 25 bank,
train and stagecoach robberies...

162
00:13:04,310 --> 00:13:07,810
from 1867 to 1881.

163
00:13:08,710 --> 00:13:10,710
But except for Frank and Jesse James...

164
00:13:10,910 --> 00:13:15,010
all the original members
were now either dead or in prison.

165
00:13:15,410 --> 00:13:20,010
mine eye
All my soul and all my every part.

166
00:13:20,910 --> 00:13:23,710
And for this sin, there is no remedy

167
00:13:24,410 --> 00:13:27,210
It is so grounded inward in my heart.

168
00:13:27,410 --> 00:13:29,710
So for their last robbery at Blue Cut...

169
00:13:29,810 --> 00:13:33,410
the brothers recruited a gang
of petty thieves and country rubes...

170
00:13:33,610 --> 00:13:36,310
culled from the local hillsides.

171
00:14:52,110 --> 00:14:54,310
Right on schedule, Buck!

172
00:14:57,010 --> 00:14:59,110
Snuff those lanterns!

173
00:14:59,210 --> 00:15:03,010
Look at those fools. They're gonna trip
and shoot each other into females.

174
00:15:03,210 --> 00:15:06,310
I bet you I could find them husbands
if they do.

175
00:16:51,910 --> 00:16:52,910
Fan out!

176
00:16:56,410 --> 00:16:58,410
Hold your fire!

177
00:17:01,410 --> 00:17:02,610
- Watch him!
- Going down.

178
00:17:16,310 --> 00:17:18,310
Hold your fire, you idiots!

179
00:17:19,510 --> 00:17:21,610
Hold your fire!

180
00:17:31,710 --> 00:17:33,410
Let me in.

181
00:17:34,110 --> 00:17:36,010
Buck! Boys!

182
00:17:36,210 --> 00:17:38,210
Buck, this way!

183
00:17:39,110 --> 00:17:41,510
Do you think that lock will hold?

184
00:17:43,110 --> 00:17:44,810
No, I don't.

185
00:17:45,110 --> 00:17:47,210
Let's go, let's go.

186
00:17:59,410 --> 00:18:02,810
Let's not get clever, nor courageous,
any of you.

187
00:18:15,210 --> 00:18:18,410
Hey there, boys!
These are all for me?

188
00:18:21,210 --> 00:18:23,710
Looks like Christmas morning in here.

189
00:18:25,510 --> 00:18:27,110
Hey, friend.

190
00:18:28,610 --> 00:18:30,610
You mind if I have a peek around?

191
00:18:31,010 --> 00:18:33,210
This shit. Nope.

192
00:18:35,010 --> 00:18:36,310
Nope.

193
00:18:38,010 --> 00:18:39,310
You got anything good here?

194
00:18:40,210 --> 00:18:41,710
It could be.

195
00:18:56,410 --> 00:18:58,410
Open that safe.

196
00:19:03,710 --> 00:19:05,310
Do it!

197
00:19:08,810 --> 00:19:11,910
- You didn't have to bop him.
- Yeah, he did. They needed convincing.

198
00:19:12,010 --> 00:19:14,510
They got their company rules,
I got my mean streak...

199
00:19:14,710 --> 00:19:17,110
and that's how we get things done around here.

200
00:19:18,310 --> 00:19:22,010
- Get on over here and attend to this thing.
- Come on, go.

201
00:19:26,110 --> 00:19:29,010
Hold your fire, you idiots!

202
00:19:29,410 --> 00:19:31,210
Dig deeper.

203
00:19:33,510 --> 00:19:36,110
- Come on!
- Give me your money.

204
00:19:36,310 --> 00:19:39,210
- And you, stand up.
- Let's see your hands.

205
00:19:39,410 --> 00:19:41,110
What have you got?

206
00:19:42,810 --> 00:19:44,610
Speak English.

207
00:19:46,010 --> 00:19:49,410
Money. Money. You understand that?

208
00:19:50,910 --> 00:19:52,410
Give me your money!

209
00:20:01,810 --> 00:20:03,810
There's some receipts.

210
00:20:05,510 --> 00:20:07,410
I got fives.

211
00:20:08,410 --> 00:20:11,410
Jesse. Jesse.

212
00:20:14,810 --> 00:20:16,710
Don't look good.

213
00:20:22,010 --> 00:20:25,310
There ain't no 100,000 dollars
in here, Dick.

214
00:20:34,210 --> 00:20:35,710
Get down on your knees.

215
00:20:36,910 --> 00:20:38,510
Why?

216
00:20:38,610 --> 00:20:40,210
Well, you ought to pray.

217
00:20:41,510 --> 00:20:42,610
I'm gonna kill you.

218
00:20:49,210 --> 00:20:51,010
Get at!

219
00:20:53,810 --> 00:20:55,610
You're gonna have to make me.

220
00:20:58,910 --> 00:21:00,610
All right.

221
00:21:26,110 --> 00:21:30,210
Don't shoot him! No, don't shoot him.

222
00:21:41,910 --> 00:21:45,210
Don't tell me what I can
and cannot do, Ed.

223
00:21:49,010 --> 00:21:51,010
Round them up!

224
00:22:14,110 --> 00:22:17,910
Chicago newspaper publishers made a great deal
of the Blue Cut train robbery...

225
00:22:18,010 --> 00:22:20,010
alleging that in no state but Missouri...

226
00:22:20,210 --> 00:22:23,710
would the James brothers be tolerated
for 12 years.

227
00:22:24,310 --> 00:22:25,710
Hey.

228
00:22:27,110 --> 00:22:29,510
Can you keep a secret?

229
00:22:30,610 --> 00:22:33,210
It depends on what you're concealing.

230
00:22:34,610 --> 00:22:36,710
You afraid of the dark?

231
00:22:37,610 --> 00:22:39,110
No.

232
00:22:39,610 --> 00:22:41,710
You superstitious?

233
00:22:44,110 --> 00:22:49,110
I put... I put an acorn in the window
to keep the lightning out.

234
00:23:37,610 --> 00:23:42,310
Kid, you must've crept up on cat's paws.

235
00:23:43,210 --> 00:23:46,710
I'll wager that's the first and last time
you'll ever be caught off-guard.

236
00:23:49,910 --> 00:23:51,010
How old are you?

237
00:23:52,410 --> 00:23:53,810
Twenty.

238
00:23:56,510 --> 00:24:00,210
Except, well,
I guess I won't really be 20 till...

239
00:24:00,710 --> 00:24:02,910
till January, so...

240
00:24:03,710 --> 00:24:05,610
I'm 19.

241
00:24:08,010 --> 00:24:11,110
Yeah, you feel older than that, though,
don't you?

242
00:24:15,910 --> 00:24:17,710
Yeah, I do.

243
00:24:30,710 --> 00:24:35,010
Hey, Frank, you...
You think the sheriff's out already?

244
00:24:36,610 --> 00:24:39,810
- More than likely.
- Yeah.

245
00:24:42,710 --> 00:24:44,510
I had a real fine time tonight.

246
00:24:44,710 --> 00:24:47,910
- You think so?
- Yup. Yeah.

247
00:24:48,110 --> 00:24:51,210
Hey, I wasn't just flapping my lips
about my kid brother and me.

248
00:24:51,610 --> 00:24:56,210
What I figured was if you and Jesse could gauge
our courage and our daring...

249
00:24:56,410 --> 00:24:58,610
you might just make us
your regular sidekicks.

250
00:24:58,810 --> 00:25:01,010
Your courage and your daring.

251
00:25:02,310 --> 00:25:07,410
I about heard all I want to about sidekicks.
You sound like your damn brother.

252
00:25:07,510 --> 00:25:12,010
Yeah. Well, I'll be square with you,
it's Bob who put me up to it. He's...

253
00:25:12,610 --> 00:25:15,910
He's got plans for the James boys
I can't even get the hang of.

254
00:25:16,110 --> 00:25:17,910
- They're that complicated.
- Yeah?

255
00:25:18,910 --> 00:25:21,610
Well, you can just get shed of that idea.

256
00:25:21,810 --> 00:25:24,310
Because after tonight,
there'll be no more shenanigans.

257
00:25:25,010 --> 00:25:27,810
You can jot that down in your little diary.

258
00:25:28,010 --> 00:25:32,810
September 7th, 1881, the James Gang
robbed one last train at Blue Cut...

259
00:25:32,910 --> 00:25:35,410
and gave up their nightriding for good.

260
00:25:42,110 --> 00:25:43,610
Wait.

261
00:25:45,210 --> 00:25:47,710
Well, how are you gonna make your living?

262
00:25:52,710 --> 00:25:55,110
Maybe I'll sell shoes.

263
00:26:04,910 --> 00:26:07,010
I can't believe I woke up this morning...

264
00:26:07,110 --> 00:26:10,410
wondering if my daddy
would loan me his overcoat...

265
00:26:10,610 --> 00:26:12,510
and here it is just past midnight...

266
00:26:12,610 --> 00:26:16,210
I've already robbed a railroad train
and I'm sitting in a rocking chair...

267
00:26:16,410 --> 00:26:18,610
chatting with none other than Jesse James.

268
00:26:19,310 --> 00:26:22,010
Yeah, it's a wonderful world.

269
00:26:30,410 --> 00:26:32,210
What's this?

270
00:26:32,410 --> 00:26:34,110
Oh, yeah.

271
00:26:35,310 --> 00:26:39,410
I was real agitated this morning,
so I was wondering if I would know you or Frank...

272
00:26:39,510 --> 00:26:44,710
tell you all apart,
and so I had this clipping that described you both.

273
00:26:45,210 --> 00:26:46,910
Want me to read it?

274
00:26:47,510 --> 00:26:48,710
Go on.

275
00:26:48,810 --> 00:26:52,910
Well...
I gotta find it. Hold on.

276
00:26:53,810 --> 00:26:56,110
Here. Here.

277
00:26:56,210 --> 00:27:00,410
"Jesse James, the youngest,
has a face as smooth and innocent as a schoolgirl.

278
00:27:00,610 --> 00:27:04,910
The blue eyes, very clear and penetrating,
are never at rest.

279
00:27:05,110 --> 00:27:08,610
His form is tall and graceful
and capable of great endurance...

280
00:27:08,810 --> 00:27:10,210
and great effort.

281
00:27:10,410 --> 00:27:14,410
Jesse is lighthearted, reckless,
and devil-may-care.

282
00:27:15,410 --> 00:27:18,810
- There's always a smile on his lips..."
- All right, all right, all right.

283
00:27:18,910 --> 00:27:22,710
Well, yeah, then it just... Frank, Frank, Frank.
That's nothing. And then...

284
00:27:35,210 --> 00:27:37,110
You know what I got right next to my bed?

285
00:27:37,710 --> 00:27:42,810
Is The Train Robbers, or,
A Story of the James Boys by R.W. Stevens.

286
00:27:42,910 --> 00:27:45,910
I mean, many's the night I stayed up...

287
00:27:46,310 --> 00:27:48,510
with my eyes open and my mouth open...

288
00:27:48,610 --> 00:27:51,810
just reading about your escapades
in the Wide Awake Library.

289
00:27:53,910 --> 00:27:55,610
They're all lies, you know.

290
00:27:59,010 --> 00:28:01,010
Yeah, of course they are.

291
00:28:04,310 --> 00:28:07,510
You don't have to keep smoking that
if it's making you bungey.

292
00:28:31,310 --> 00:28:33,710
Alexander Franklin James
would be in Baltimore...

293
00:28:33,910 --> 00:28:37,610
when he would read of the assassination
of Jesse James.

294
00:28:51,010 --> 00:28:55,610
He had spurned his younger brother
for being peculiar and temperamental.

295
00:28:57,010 --> 00:29:00,310
But once he perceived
that he would never see Jesse again...

296
00:29:00,910 --> 00:29:05,510
Frank would be wrought-up,
perplexed, despondent.

297
00:29:44,210 --> 00:29:47,510
My brother and me are hardly
on speaking terms these days.

298
00:29:48,910 --> 00:29:51,210
Well, I wasn't gonna mention it.

299
00:30:01,710 --> 00:30:03,110
Are you scared?

300
00:30:03,910 --> 00:30:06,110
No, I'm just surprised a little.

301
00:30:06,210 --> 00:30:08,810
They ain't as succulent as I like,
the devil to clean...

302
00:30:09,010 --> 00:30:12,010
but if a man skins them and fries them
in garlic and oil...

303
00:30:12,210 --> 00:30:15,110
mercy, them's good eating.

304
00:30:15,210 --> 00:30:18,610
Well, I never been that hungry.

305
00:30:21,310 --> 00:30:23,410
I give them names.

306
00:30:24,910 --> 00:30:26,310
Such as?

307
00:30:29,010 --> 00:30:31,510
Such as enemies.

308
00:30:32,410 --> 00:30:35,210
I give them names of enemies.

309
00:30:47,910 --> 00:30:51,010
Go tell Wood and Charley
to get their gatherings together.

310
00:30:52,410 --> 00:30:54,010
All right.

311
00:30:55,410 --> 00:30:57,010
Me too?

312
00:30:59,110 --> 00:31:01,110
You can stay.

313
00:31:04,110 --> 00:31:05,110
All right.

314
00:31:11,710 --> 00:31:13,010
Hey.

315
00:31:15,210 --> 00:31:17,910
- What do you want, peckerwood?
- Nothing.

316
00:31:18,110 --> 00:31:20,710
Except to say Jesse wants you two
to gather your parts...

317
00:31:20,910 --> 00:31:23,410
get on your horses and get out of town.

318
00:31:23,710 --> 00:31:25,710
And me to stick around.

319
00:31:28,110 --> 00:31:31,210
Well, whoa, I'm his cousin...

320
00:31:31,410 --> 00:31:33,110
I'll have you know.

321
00:31:33,310 --> 00:31:35,410
My mama's his daddy's sister.

322
00:31:35,810 --> 00:31:38,010
Is that how they described it to you, Wood?

323
00:31:39,710 --> 00:31:41,810
You better watch your tongue,
young sapling.

324
00:31:42,010 --> 00:31:45,410
Why is it me who's gotta rattle his hocks
out of town and not you, Bunny?

325
00:31:45,510 --> 00:31:47,310
Put your horns away.
If I know Jess...

326
00:31:47,410 --> 00:31:50,710
there's some real nasty
sad-suzie work's gotta be done...

327
00:31:51,110 --> 00:31:53,910
and Bob's the ninny that has to do it.

328
00:31:54,110 --> 00:31:56,410
Oh, yeah, I'm sure that's it, Charley.

329
00:31:58,110 --> 00:32:02,810
You only met him 12 hours ago.
He doesn't even know your name.

330
00:32:03,910 --> 00:32:07,310
Wood! You tell your daddy
I'll be in Kentucky in October.

331
00:32:08,710 --> 00:32:11,110
We can hunt some birds together.

332
00:32:11,610 --> 00:32:13,110
All right.

333
00:32:13,810 --> 00:32:17,310
So how come it's Bob who gets to stay?

334
00:32:19,910 --> 00:32:22,910
Bob's gonna move my gear to a house
down the street.

335
00:32:23,910 --> 00:32:25,010
See?

336
00:32:25,710 --> 00:32:28,310
- I don't mind.
- Yeah, well.

337
00:32:28,410 --> 00:32:30,510
Sounds like an adventure.

338
00:32:35,110 --> 00:32:38,210
They moved to 1017 Troost Avenue at night...

339
00:32:38,410 --> 00:32:42,910
so that the neighborhood couldn't get
a good look at them or their belongings.

340
00:32:44,610 --> 00:32:47,310
Then Bob thought Jesse
would give him eight hours' sleep...

341
00:32:47,410 --> 00:32:49,810
and a daydreaming goodbye.

342
00:32:52,810 --> 00:32:55,810
But with a second day
in the Thomas Howard house...

343
00:32:56,010 --> 00:32:58,010
Bob thought he might never go...

344
00:32:58,910 --> 00:33:02,710
but might be brought in
as a good-natured cousin to the boy...

345
00:33:04,110 --> 00:33:06,910
and a gentleman helper to Zee.

346
00:33:09,910 --> 00:33:11,610
He went everywhere with Jesse.

347
00:33:11,810 --> 00:33:14,110
They made trips
to the Topeka Exchange Saloon...

348
00:33:14,310 --> 00:33:18,110
where Jesse could spend nearly 60 minutes
sipping one glass of beer...

349
00:33:18,210 --> 00:33:21,510
and still complain about feeling tipsy.

350
00:33:22,110 --> 00:33:25,110
Bob would rarely vouchsafe his opinions
as they talked.

351
00:33:25,310 --> 00:33:28,810
If spoken to, he would fidget and grin.

352
00:33:29,610 --> 00:33:33,610
If Jesse palavered with another person,
Bob secretaried their dialogue...

353
00:33:33,810 --> 00:33:37,610
getting each inflection,
reading every gesture and tic...

354
00:33:37,710 --> 00:33:40,910
as if he wanted to compose
a biography of the outlaw...

355
00:33:41,110 --> 00:33:44,110
or as if he were preparing an impersonation.

356
00:33:59,910 --> 00:34:01,810
Go away.

357
00:34:04,710 --> 00:34:08,410
Used to be couldn't no one sneak up
on Jesse James.

358
00:34:09,710 --> 00:34:12,110
Now you think otherwise?

359
00:34:13,210 --> 00:34:16,410
I ain't never seen you without your guns, neither.

360
00:34:29,610 --> 00:34:32,010
I can't figure it out.

361
00:34:32,910 --> 00:34:35,010
Do you wanna be like me...

362
00:34:35,510 --> 00:34:37,010
or do you wanna be me?

363
00:34:42,910 --> 00:34:45,110
I'm just making fun, is all.

364
00:34:47,810 --> 00:34:51,010
Bob was sent away cordially the next day...

365
00:34:51,210 --> 00:34:52,710
with a goodbye from Jesse...

366
00:34:52,910 --> 00:34:56,810
but nothing from Zee
beyond what good manners demanded.

367
00:35:00,410 --> 00:35:03,210
It was 40 miles to his sister's farm
from Kansas City.

368
00:35:04,510 --> 00:35:08,810
And it was well into the afternoon
by the time he arrived there.

369
00:35:09,810 --> 00:35:13,910
Mrs. Martha Bolton rented
the Harbison farm in 1879...

370
00:35:14,010 --> 00:35:16,610
just after becoming a widow.

371
00:35:17,110 --> 00:35:19,810
And she made a good income
by giving rooms and meals...

372
00:35:20,010 --> 00:35:25,110
to her brothers Charley, Wilbur and Bob,
and to members of the James Gang...

373
00:35:25,310 --> 00:35:27,810
who would appear
whenever they needed seclusion.

374
00:35:28,010 --> 00:35:29,710
Dick! You're gonna make her sick!

375
00:35:29,910 --> 00:35:32,810
She's gonna upchuck
if you don't watch out!

376
00:35:33,410 --> 00:35:36,610
Wood Hite had been spurned by Martha
in his affections...

377
00:35:36,810 --> 00:35:39,510
and his attempt to switch his pursuit
to her daughter...

378
00:35:39,610 --> 00:35:41,510
was being thwarted by Dick Liddil.

379
00:35:41,710 --> 00:35:45,010
Wait a second,
you assured me that you were not ticklish.

380
00:35:45,210 --> 00:35:46,210
Howdy!

381
00:35:46,410 --> 00:35:48,210
What's going on, now?
What's going on...?

382
00:35:48,410 --> 00:35:51,210
- Howdy!
- Were you fibbing about that?

383
00:35:51,410 --> 00:35:53,210
- No.
- Not at all.

384
00:35:54,710 --> 00:35:56,410
You're not supposed to peek, Dick.

385
00:35:56,610 --> 00:35:59,010
Well, you're just so pretty
I can't help myself.

386
00:35:59,210 --> 00:36:01,710
- You need to be warning him about that.
- Howdy.

387
00:36:01,910 --> 00:36:05,810
Worry about the field instead,
might be able to worry about the work...

388
00:36:06,010 --> 00:36:07,810
Howdy!

389
00:36:08,610 --> 00:36:11,610
- Finally home.
- I'm so glad, Bob.

390
00:36:11,710 --> 00:36:14,410
I'm in that room too, Bob.
Don't mess with my things.

391
00:36:14,610 --> 00:36:16,610
All right, Grandpa.

392
00:36:22,410 --> 00:36:28,010
"July 9th. Diligence, tact,
and a keen sense of responsibility...

393
00:36:28,210 --> 00:36:32,610
capacity for detail are your dominant traits.
Your sense of duty's strong."

394
00:37:16,910 --> 00:37:18,510
How long you been there?

395
00:37:18,710 --> 00:37:21,610
Just now arrived. Did I miss much?

396
00:37:23,310 --> 00:37:26,810
Not unless you never seen a man
wash his dirty carcass before.

397
00:37:27,010 --> 00:37:30,410
Boy, you got a big old pecker
for being such a little squirrel.

398
00:37:30,610 --> 00:37:32,610
That what you come here to see, Dick?

399
00:37:34,510 --> 00:37:36,010
No.

400
00:37:37,010 --> 00:37:40,410
Your brother said that Jesse kept you
in Kansas City some extra days.

401
00:37:40,510 --> 00:37:41,610
What was the reason?

402
00:37:43,810 --> 00:37:47,710
Well, I'm not at liberty to say exactly.

403
00:37:48,110 --> 00:37:53,610
Let me ask you this. Did Jesse mention
that me and Cummins were in cahoots?

404
00:37:54,810 --> 00:37:56,010
Is that so?

405
00:37:56,110 --> 00:38:00,110
Oh, dear. I went on and said too much,
have I?

406
00:38:00,410 --> 00:38:02,510
Well, who else is partners with you two?

407
00:38:04,910 --> 00:38:09,410
See, he'll cut our throats if he finds out.
You don't know him like I do.

408
00:38:09,610 --> 00:38:13,510
You do Jesse dirt,
you connive behind his back...

409
00:38:13,710 --> 00:38:16,510
boy, he'll come after you
with a cleaver.

410
00:38:19,210 --> 00:38:21,710
So, what are you two cahoots cooking up?

411
00:38:24,710 --> 00:38:26,410
Don't know that I should say.

412
00:38:27,510 --> 00:38:29,610
I'm not gonna wheedle
the dang news from you.

413
00:38:29,810 --> 00:38:31,610
How about we'll leave it a mystery...

414
00:38:31,810 --> 00:38:36,010
and then we won't neither one of us
regret our little chat?

415
00:38:41,810 --> 00:38:44,510
Can you hand me that six-gun there, Bob?

416
00:38:53,610 --> 00:38:57,710
If you so much as mention my name
to Jesse...

417
00:38:57,910 --> 00:39:00,210
boy, I'll find out about it.

418
00:39:00,410 --> 00:39:03,410
You had better believe that.

419
00:39:03,610 --> 00:39:05,610
And I'll look you up.

420
00:39:05,810 --> 00:39:10,710
I'll knock on your door,
and I will be as mad as a hornet.

421
00:39:11,410 --> 00:39:13,610
I will be hot.

422
00:39:15,510 --> 00:39:18,210
You be careful with that iron, Dick.

423
00:39:26,610 --> 00:39:30,210
You know where I stand on these matters
and that's all there is to it.

424
00:39:30,310 --> 00:39:33,910
Me and you can be as friendly as pigs
from now on.

425
00:39:59,410 --> 00:40:02,910
I'm Bunny Ford,
stick your hands up in the air!

426
00:40:03,110 --> 00:40:04,810
Mister.

427
00:40:10,010 --> 00:40:12,310
Oh, you have some nerve.

428
00:40:13,610 --> 00:40:19,010
We were just reading about the James boys
among the Mexicans.

429
00:40:20,710 --> 00:40:23,410
What's this? This ain't Jesse.

430
00:40:23,610 --> 00:40:26,710
- You don't know that.
- He would've never wore no mustache.

431
00:40:26,910 --> 00:40:29,210
Never was anywheres near a cannon.

432
00:40:29,410 --> 00:40:31,810
Let me see that picture.

433
00:40:32,010 --> 00:40:34,710
Boy, I can't even calculate
what I'm looking at.

434
00:40:35,010 --> 00:40:37,110
- Give me that.
- Ever since he was a child...

435
00:40:37,310 --> 00:40:40,510
Bob's collected whatsoever he could find
about the James brothers.

436
00:40:40,610 --> 00:40:42,810
Yeah, got himself a little museum
in his room.

437
00:40:43,010 --> 00:40:46,610
Next time you come snooping around,
you better strap on a shooting iron!

438
00:40:47,110 --> 00:40:49,610
Well, you can see how scared I am.

439
00:40:49,810 --> 00:40:53,710
You too, Wood Hite. Cross me again,
I'll put a bullet through your head!

440
00:40:54,710 --> 00:40:55,910
Boy, you...

441
00:40:56,610 --> 00:40:59,210
Son, you better recollect
who my cousin is...

442
00:40:59,410 --> 00:41:03,510
because you've seemed to misremembered
that Jesse loves me like the Good Book.

443
00:41:03,610 --> 00:41:07,310
Now, you may play it like you're
a dangerous person in the grocery store...

444
00:41:07,410 --> 00:41:09,810
but don't misremember who you be accounting to...

445
00:41:10,010 --> 00:41:12,410
- if I so much get my feelings hurt.
- I don't care!

446
00:41:12,610 --> 00:41:14,210
Do I have to yell "suwee"?

447
00:41:14,310 --> 00:41:16,310
Why don't we make up,
be pleasant for once?

448
00:41:16,510 --> 00:41:19,310
Why don't we pass the evening
like pleasant human beings?

449
00:41:19,510 --> 00:41:21,710
I like your nickel suit, cowboy.

450
00:41:47,610 --> 00:41:49,310
You see something?

451
00:41:50,610 --> 00:41:52,410
Just a bird.

452
00:41:56,110 --> 00:41:58,010
The month of October came...

453
00:41:58,210 --> 00:42:01,710
and Jesse began seeing Pinkerton operatives
in every floor walker...

454
00:42:01,810 --> 00:42:06,210
street sweeper, and common man
poking about in a store.

455
00:42:08,510 --> 00:42:11,010
On the morning of the 11th,
he would wake his wife...

456
00:42:11,210 --> 00:42:15,410
with the Scripture pertaining
to the Holy Family's flight into Egypt.

457
00:42:19,110 --> 00:42:24,010
Overnight, the Thomas Howard clan
vanished from Kansas City.

458
00:42:34,510 --> 00:42:37,210
Shortly thereafter,
four of the Blue Cut train robbers...

459
00:42:37,410 --> 00:42:40,210
were arrested in shacks near Glendale.

460
00:42:45,210 --> 00:42:48,910
How Jesse could have known remains a mystery.

461
00:43:01,010 --> 00:43:04,010
Theirs was a wandering existence.

462
00:43:04,110 --> 00:43:05,810
Men who choose to be outlaws...

463
00:43:06,010 --> 00:43:10,010
cannot afford to remain in one place
for very long.

464
00:43:19,010 --> 00:43:23,310
- Well, goodness. Maybe I'll change my mind.
- Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

465
00:43:23,410 --> 00:43:25,710
- Martha.
- Buck up, man.

466
00:43:25,810 --> 00:43:29,410
Wood and Dick would bicker
across the entire state of Kentucky...

467
00:43:29,610 --> 00:43:34,510
until they made Russellville,
home of Major George Hite, Wood's father...

468
00:43:34,710 --> 00:43:37,810
and uncle to Frank and Jesse James.

469
00:43:45,910 --> 00:43:48,110
You stay away from this one.

470
00:43:48,910 --> 00:43:50,910
She's my daddy's wife.

471
00:43:51,810 --> 00:43:53,210
You got it?

472
00:44:17,110 --> 00:44:18,710
Did you cook this, ma'am?

473
00:44:22,010 --> 00:44:24,310
I've got a nigger woman.

474
00:44:26,410 --> 00:44:27,410
How's that?

475
00:44:31,910 --> 00:44:35,210
Dick asked if I cooked this.

476
00:44:35,510 --> 00:44:37,010
Did you?

477
00:44:39,510 --> 00:44:40,610
No.

478
00:44:49,810 --> 00:44:52,210
She knew what he was like
when she married him.

479
00:45:18,710 --> 00:45:23,010
I guess we're the night owls, you and I.

480
00:45:24,410 --> 00:45:26,210
I'm glad.

481
00:45:28,510 --> 00:45:30,010
How come?

482
00:45:31,010 --> 00:45:33,610
You're interesting to look at.

483
00:45:34,510 --> 00:45:38,010
You have a real pleasant disposition.

484
00:45:39,610 --> 00:45:43,510
And I don't know, you sort of
make me feel warm all over.

485
00:45:45,510 --> 00:45:50,210
You know, I'm what they call a...
An inamorato.

486
00:45:54,110 --> 00:45:58,810
Well, I knew there had to be a name for it.

487
00:46:02,610 --> 00:46:04,810
You and the Hites
don't get along too well...

488
00:46:05,010 --> 00:46:08,210
if I'm to trust Wood
and his version of the situation.

489
00:46:09,410 --> 00:46:12,910
We hate each other like poison,
if you wanna know the truth.

490
00:46:13,610 --> 00:46:17,310
Most of the Hites wouldn't spit on me
if I was on fire.

491
00:46:19,510 --> 00:46:22,310
They say that when a woman's on fire...

492
00:46:22,510 --> 00:46:26,910
you're supposed to roll her around on the ground
and cover her with your body.

493
00:46:28,310 --> 00:46:31,010
Well, you are a naughty tease.

494
00:46:37,610 --> 00:46:39,910
Isn't it about bedtime?

495
00:46:41,210 --> 00:46:44,110
Well, I'll just kiss those dainty nubbins.

496
00:46:58,010 --> 00:46:59,410
Good night.

497
00:47:13,910 --> 00:47:15,010
Would you stop?

498
00:47:20,310 --> 00:47:24,310
Boy, I believe I drank too much coffee.

499
00:47:28,010 --> 00:47:31,310
I gotta go visit the privy,
something terrible.

500
00:48:00,610 --> 00:48:02,910
This is embarrassing.

501
00:48:03,610 --> 00:48:07,710
Now, you go ahead and do your duty.
I don't mind.

502
00:48:08,910 --> 00:48:12,910
I've sort of got stage fright
with a strange man in the commode with me.

503
00:48:13,110 --> 00:48:14,610
I ain't strange.

504
00:48:14,910 --> 00:48:17,810
I'm built just like the rest of them.

505
00:48:20,610 --> 00:48:23,710
You look awful pretty.

506
00:48:25,110 --> 00:48:26,810
Do I?

507
00:48:27,210 --> 00:48:31,910
I haven't never in my life seen
such well-shaped limbs.

508
00:48:39,410 --> 00:48:41,610
Is Wood awake?

509
00:48:43,810 --> 00:48:45,110
It's just me.

510
00:48:53,910 --> 00:48:56,910
And I bet you thought I was a lady.

511
00:49:43,710 --> 00:49:46,010
Well, you ain't much of a housekeeper,
are you?

512
00:49:49,410 --> 00:49:51,010
You didn't just happen by.

513
00:49:53,510 --> 00:49:55,210
Why not?

514
00:50:22,410 --> 00:50:25,310
Go on and take a load off your feet.

515
00:50:50,310 --> 00:50:52,410
You ought to get yourself a wife.

516
00:50:52,810 --> 00:50:54,110
Yeah.

517
00:50:54,410 --> 00:50:56,210
I suppose.

518
00:50:59,610 --> 00:51:02,810
I was gonna ask Martha. Charley's sister.

519
00:51:03,010 --> 00:51:06,410
I was gonna ask her
if she could imagine it.

520
00:51:07,610 --> 00:51:10,510
But I guess Wood has plans of his own.

521
00:51:11,110 --> 00:51:13,710
And there's always Dick Liddil
getting in the way.

522
00:51:14,810 --> 00:51:16,810
I'll give it some thought, though.

523
00:51:17,510 --> 00:51:19,510
Your crops come in?

524
00:51:20,710 --> 00:51:25,810
No, I don't got much.
Just a garden patch and a pasture.

525
00:51:28,110 --> 00:51:30,410
I was sick at planting time.

526
00:51:31,510 --> 00:51:32,910
So...

527
00:51:35,110 --> 00:51:37,410
Ed, how you feeling now?

528
00:51:40,210 --> 00:51:41,310
Why?

529
00:51:43,210 --> 00:51:45,410
You're acting queer.

530
00:51:53,910 --> 00:51:57,610
Well, you and me ain't been
just real good friends lately.

531
00:51:58,510 --> 00:52:01,610
That's not your fault,
you understand that.

532
00:52:04,010 --> 00:52:05,610
You hear talk, though.

533
00:52:07,710 --> 00:52:09,110
Talk?

534
00:52:13,010 --> 00:52:15,210
People tell you things.

535
00:52:22,710 --> 00:52:24,810
Why don't you give me an example?

536
00:52:29,110 --> 00:52:31,310
Jim Cummins come by here.

537
00:52:32,910 --> 00:52:34,210
Jim Cummins.

538
00:52:35,510 --> 00:52:37,710
Oh, and Jim says:

539
00:52:40,310 --> 00:52:44,010
"You know them boys
that got caught in the Blue Cut deal?"

540
00:52:47,110 --> 00:52:50,710
Well, Jim says he got word...

541
00:52:53,410 --> 00:52:57,410
that you're planning to kill them.

542
00:52:59,310 --> 00:53:01,510
Why would I do that?

543
00:53:03,510 --> 00:53:05,610
That's just talk probably.

544
00:53:09,610 --> 00:53:13,510
Jim Cummins. He say anything else?

545
00:53:13,810 --> 00:53:17,710
Nope. No, that was it, basically.

546
00:53:28,110 --> 00:53:30,510
That still don't explain why you're scared.

547
00:53:34,110 --> 00:53:37,010
Well, I'm in the same situation, you see.

548
00:53:37,710 --> 00:53:39,810
I was terrified I saw you ride up.

549
00:53:40,410 --> 00:53:43,410
- I just happened by, Ed.
- Suppose you heard gossip, though.

550
00:53:43,610 --> 00:53:46,510
Suppose you heard Jim Cummins come by,
you might have thought...

551
00:53:46,710 --> 00:53:51,610
that we were planning to capture you
or get that reward, and that ain't true.

552
00:53:51,810 --> 00:53:54,110
But you might have suspected it.

553
00:54:12,510 --> 00:54:15,110
Haven't heard a lick of gossip lately.

554
00:54:15,310 --> 00:54:19,710
I got 600 dollars stashed away.
I don't need no governor's reward.

555
00:54:22,610 --> 00:54:24,510
Well, it's the principle too.

556
00:54:29,510 --> 00:54:31,010
Well...

557
00:54:31,310 --> 00:54:34,810
- I'm glad I stopped by.
- Oh, me too.

558
00:54:59,610 --> 00:55:02,710
What do you say
if we were to go for a ride?

559
00:55:07,610 --> 00:55:10,510
We can go into town. I'll buy you dinner.

560
00:55:12,110 --> 00:55:14,410
Then I'll be on my way.

561
00:55:23,410 --> 00:55:25,110
Okay.

562
00:56:25,510 --> 00:56:27,310
You ready to go for a ride?

563
00:56:43,110 --> 00:56:45,410
We going to your place?

564
00:56:50,310 --> 00:56:52,410
You seen Ed Miller lately?

565
00:56:53,810 --> 00:56:55,910
Nobody has.

566
00:56:59,710 --> 00:57:02,310
Must have gone off to California.

567
00:57:06,410 --> 00:57:08,710
I'd still like to know where we're going.

568
00:57:13,910 --> 00:57:17,810
If you were going to see Jim Cummins,
wouldn't you follow this road?

569
00:57:23,210 --> 00:57:25,010
I guess so.

570
00:58:08,010 --> 00:58:09,510
Howdy.

571
00:58:20,310 --> 00:58:22,510
Oh, are you friends of my pa's?

572
00:58:27,510 --> 00:58:29,410
We're friends of Jim Cummins.

573
00:58:33,510 --> 00:58:36,410
Well, it so happens he's been gone since August.

574
00:58:36,610 --> 00:58:38,610
And never said where he gone to.

575
00:58:43,610 --> 00:58:46,810
- I'm Matt Collins.
- Albert Ford.

576
00:58:47,010 --> 00:58:48,910
Very happy to meet you.

577
00:58:54,610 --> 00:58:58,110
- Dick Turpin.
- Pleased to make your acquaintance.

578
00:59:10,810 --> 00:59:12,810
I don't know where he is!
Leave me alone!

579
00:59:13,010 --> 00:59:14,810
Shut your mouth!
You shut your mouth!

580
00:59:16,810 --> 00:59:19,610
- You shut your mouth.
- I don't know where he is!

581
00:59:20,310 --> 00:59:22,310
- I don't know!
- Get in there.

582
00:59:23,210 --> 00:59:24,210
Shut up.

583
00:59:24,410 --> 00:59:26,910
- I don't know where he is!
- Shut up.

584
00:59:28,010 --> 00:59:29,510
- I don't know!
- Shut up.

585
00:59:29,610 --> 00:59:30,710
- Jesus.
- Shut up.

586
00:59:30,910 --> 00:59:33,010
Jesse, he's just a kid.

587
00:59:33,410 --> 00:59:37,010
He knows where his uncle Jim is
and that's gonna make him old soon enough.

588
00:59:37,210 --> 00:59:39,510
- Maybe he doesn't know.
- He knows!

589
00:59:39,710 --> 00:59:41,310
You need to ask and ask sometimes.

590
00:59:41,510 --> 00:59:45,110
Sometimes a child don't remember so much at first.
But it'll come back to him.

591
00:59:47,210 --> 00:59:49,710
My goodness, she's about to rip off,
sweetie.

592
00:59:49,910 --> 00:59:51,910
Just a little more here to get her started.

593
00:59:52,110 --> 00:59:54,810
Then I think I can rip her off
like a page from a book.

594
00:59:55,010 --> 00:59:57,110
Jesus, he can't even talk.

595
00:59:59,910 --> 01:00:01,510
Where's Jim?

596
01:00:01,710 --> 01:00:03,110
Where's Jim?

597
01:00:03,310 --> 01:00:05,310
Where's Jim? Where's Jim?

598
01:00:05,410 --> 01:00:08,810
Where's Jim? Where's Jim? Where's Jim?

599
01:00:09,110 --> 01:00:11,410
- Where's Jim?
- Quit it!

600
01:00:11,910 --> 01:00:14,310
You bastard! I don't know where he is!

601
01:00:14,510 --> 01:00:17,310
You won't believe me!
You never even gave me a chance!

602
01:00:17,510 --> 01:00:19,510
You kept my...
You kept my mouth shut!

603
01:00:20,910 --> 01:00:24,310
I never know where Jim is or when he comes!
So leave me alone.

604
01:00:24,510 --> 01:00:26,910
Get off me, you son of a bitch!

605
01:01:19,910 --> 01:01:21,910
I'm worn out.

606
01:01:22,110 --> 01:01:25,010
I can't. No, see...

607
01:01:28,010 --> 01:01:30,610
My mind's all tangled anyway.

608
01:01:31,110 --> 01:01:34,610
Little deals like this
just make me feel dirty.

609
01:01:55,610 --> 01:01:57,710
Are you all right, Jesse?

610
01:02:26,210 --> 01:02:28,110
Jesse was sick...

611
01:02:28,210 --> 01:02:32,710
with rheums, and aches
and lung congestions.

612
01:02:33,610 --> 01:02:36,910
Insomnia stained his eye sockets like soot.

613
01:02:37,710 --> 01:02:40,710
He read auguries
in the snarled intestines of chickens...

614
01:02:41,910 --> 01:02:45,510
or the blow of cat hair
released to the wind.

615
01:02:46,310 --> 01:02:51,310
And the omens promised bad luck,
which moated and dungeoned him.

616
01:03:33,010 --> 01:03:35,510
How come it's you
that's gotta do all the chores?

617
01:03:35,710 --> 01:03:39,910
Charley and Bob pay extry to Martha
so that they don't have to.

618
01:03:41,210 --> 01:03:43,310
It still don't seem fair.

619
01:03:50,110 --> 01:03:51,610
Martha.

620
01:03:53,410 --> 01:03:56,010
Well, look what the cat dragged in.

621
01:04:00,810 --> 01:04:02,010
You come from Kentucky?

622
01:04:05,410 --> 01:04:09,310
Why do you have your head in a hole, Martha?

623
01:04:12,310 --> 01:04:16,010
Wood and Dick had a shooting scrape
a few months ago.

624
01:04:17,610 --> 01:04:18,910
Cover the kettle, Ida.

625
01:04:24,210 --> 01:04:26,510
And what did you and Dick
get in a scrape about?

626
01:04:30,310 --> 01:04:34,310
Well, he tampered with my daddy's wife...

627
01:04:34,510 --> 01:04:37,910
while a pork chop burned on the skillet...

628
01:04:38,010 --> 01:04:39,610
so I shot at him.

629
01:04:44,610 --> 01:04:49,010
Ida! Do not stick your thumb
in the cream when you skim it.

630
01:04:50,210 --> 01:04:55,410
His chicanery and his philandering ways...

631
01:04:55,610 --> 01:04:57,610
has instigated such malice.

632
01:04:57,710 --> 01:05:01,710
He's a yellow snake in the grass
and he can't be trusted, Martha.

633
01:05:04,610 --> 01:05:07,910
Dick told me a complete other version
of that affray.

634
01:05:09,410 --> 01:05:12,110
Wood Hite's downstairs.

635
01:05:12,810 --> 01:05:14,510
You mean he's here?

636
01:05:17,210 --> 01:05:19,910
Yeah, he come in late last night.

637
01:05:23,710 --> 01:05:24,710
Hey, simmer down!

638
01:05:24,910 --> 01:05:29,410
Don't get into a fracas up there, you boys!
I've got breakfast almost ready.

639
01:07:40,310 --> 01:07:42,510
He's still sucking air.

640
01:07:43,710 --> 01:07:45,910
But I think he's a goner.

641
01:07:56,010 --> 01:07:59,310
Maybe y'all better come wish him well
on his journey.

642
01:08:26,110 --> 01:08:27,610
Wood?

643
01:08:30,010 --> 01:08:32,310
You were a good fellow, Wood.

644
01:08:32,510 --> 01:08:36,010
Oh, I sure hope you're not
in frightful pain, Wood.

645
01:08:36,610 --> 01:08:40,310
I'd get you something to drink,
but I'm afraid you'd just choke on it.

646
01:08:41,710 --> 01:08:43,910
Little Ida's gonna miss you.

647
01:08:44,110 --> 01:08:46,210
So is the rest of the family.

648
01:08:49,410 --> 01:08:53,010
Well, one thing's settled.
Can't take him into Richmond.

649
01:08:54,110 --> 01:08:55,210
Why not?

650
01:08:56,610 --> 01:08:59,210
Well, one, sheriff'll put Bob in jail.

651
01:08:59,410 --> 01:09:03,210
And two, Jesse'll find out
his cousin Wood's been shot in our house...

652
01:09:03,410 --> 01:09:06,810
and then that'll be the end
of each and every one of us.

653
01:09:16,710 --> 01:09:20,410
"And in one merciless, violent thrust,
broke in...

654
01:09:20,810 --> 01:09:23,710
and carried all before him,
and scented and brewed...

655
01:09:23,810 --> 01:09:26,410
reeking with blood of my virginity...

656
01:09:26,510 --> 01:09:31,110
up to its utmost length in my body."

657
01:09:32,710 --> 01:09:35,510
He ain't disappeared,
if that's what you were hoping.

658
01:09:40,010 --> 01:09:42,010
What chapter you on?

659
01:09:42,510 --> 01:09:47,510
She's met some Algerian corsair
down at Gibraltar.

660
01:09:47,710 --> 01:09:50,010
Got herself all agitated.

661
01:09:52,310 --> 01:09:53,810
How's that leg?

662
01:09:54,610 --> 01:09:58,710
Full of torment, Bob. Thanks for asking.

663
01:10:44,610 --> 01:10:47,310
Blessed are the poor in spirit...

664
01:10:47,410 --> 01:10:49,710
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

665
01:10:51,110 --> 01:10:56,710
Blessed are them that mourn,
for they shall be comforted.

666
01:10:58,910 --> 01:11:00,810
Blessed are the...

667
01:11:04,310 --> 01:11:05,810
Meek.

668
01:11:08,110 --> 01:11:10,010
Blessed are the meek.

669
01:11:45,910 --> 01:11:48,010
- Is it him?
- Yeah.

670
01:11:48,210 --> 01:11:51,210
Why is he here?
Does he know about Wood, do you think?

671
01:11:51,410 --> 01:11:53,810
I don't know.
All I know is he don't miss very much.

672
01:11:53,910 --> 01:11:57,910
- What should I say about you if he asks?
- Tell him I'm in K.C. with Mattie.

673
01:12:00,610 --> 01:12:04,410
He was buffalo hunting.
He was thrilled to meet yours truly.

674
01:12:04,610 --> 01:12:08,510
Yeah, over there in Europe there's only two Americans
they know for certain...

675
01:12:08,710 --> 01:12:11,610
Mark Twain and Jesse James.

676
01:12:13,010 --> 01:12:16,210
- Why, it's the kid.
- How's everything?

677
01:12:18,710 --> 01:12:21,310
- I never take off my gun belts.
- Yeah?

678
01:12:21,410 --> 01:12:23,010
Good thinking.

679
01:12:29,110 --> 01:12:31,410
Well, Charley, did you hurt your leg?

680
01:12:33,910 --> 01:12:35,910
Yeah, I slipped...
I slipped off the roof...

681
01:12:36,110 --> 01:12:39,710
and I smacked down into a snow bank
like a ton of stupidness.

682
01:12:39,910 --> 01:12:42,510
One second I'm screaming,
"Whoa, Nelly!"

683
01:12:42,710 --> 01:12:45,410
Next second, poof,
I'm neck-deep in snow.

684
01:12:48,310 --> 01:12:52,110
Well, whatever possessed you
to climb a roof in December?

685
01:12:58,110 --> 01:13:01,610
There was a k... A kite. What am I saying?
There was a cat.

686
01:13:01,810 --> 01:13:04,210
A cat. It was on the roof
and I went after him.

687
01:13:04,510 --> 01:13:09,010
It was a tomcat yowling and what all,
and I slipped.

688
01:13:21,010 --> 01:13:24,110
I thought maybe your club foot
was gaining on you.

689
01:13:33,110 --> 01:13:34,810
Oh, yeah.

690
01:13:35,510 --> 01:13:39,810
Dick went to Kansas City to be with his wife.
He was here for a bit.

691
01:13:59,410 --> 01:14:02,310
Hey, here's a cute story, Jess.

692
01:14:02,510 --> 01:14:05,810
Bobby was what, 11 or 12...

693
01:14:06,010 --> 01:14:09,210
and you were by far
his most admired personage.

694
01:14:09,710 --> 01:14:10,810
He couldn't get enough.

695
01:14:11,010 --> 01:14:15,210
It was "Jesse this" and "Jesse that" and "Jesse this"
from sunrise to sunset.

696
01:14:15,410 --> 01:14:16,510
Fascinating.

697
01:14:16,710 --> 01:14:18,410
No, there's more. This is cute.

698
01:14:18,610 --> 01:14:23,310
We're at supper and Bob asks,
"You know what size boot Jesse wears?"

699
01:14:23,510 --> 01:14:27,210
- Charley, Jesse doesn't wanna hear this.
- Shush, now, Bob, let me tell it.

700
01:14:27,410 --> 01:14:30,410
Bob says... He says,
"You know what size boot Jesse wears?"

701
01:14:30,610 --> 01:14:33,810
He says, "Six and a half." He says,
"Ain't that a big enough boot...

702
01:14:34,010 --> 01:14:35,810
for a man 5'8" tall?"

703
01:14:35,910 --> 01:14:39,810
I decided to josh him a little, you know,
he being my kid brother and everything.

704
01:14:39,910 --> 01:14:43,010
So I said, "He doesn't have toes is why."

705
01:14:43,210 --> 01:14:44,710
That's a really stupid story.

706
01:14:44,910 --> 01:14:49,510
"He was dangling his feet off a culvert
and a catfish nibbled his toes off."

707
01:14:49,710 --> 01:14:52,410
Bob taxed himself trying to picture it.

708
01:14:59,310 --> 01:15:01,910
That'd be a good joke if it was funny.

709
01:15:02,810 --> 01:15:05,310
Isn't that a cute story, Jess?

710
01:15:15,210 --> 01:15:18,110
Give me some more conversations, Bob.

711
01:15:23,110 --> 01:15:28,310
I got one. This one's about as crackerjack...
It's the one about your...

712
01:15:28,510 --> 01:15:30,410
Let Bob tell it.

713
01:15:31,810 --> 01:15:33,510
All right.

714
01:15:40,110 --> 01:15:42,110
I don't even know what you're talking about.

715
01:15:42,310 --> 01:15:46,310
About how you and Jesse
have so much in common.

716
01:15:49,310 --> 01:15:51,010
Go on, Bob.

717
01:15:51,110 --> 01:15:53,110
Yeah, come on, Bob.

718
01:15:53,810 --> 01:15:56,110
Tell us a story.

719
01:15:58,010 --> 01:16:02,610
- Nope. No.
- Come on, entertain Jesse. He's here.

720
01:16:09,610 --> 01:16:11,110
Come on.

721
01:16:18,010 --> 01:16:21,910
Well, if you'll pardon my saying so,
I guess...

722
01:16:22,110 --> 01:16:26,110
it is interesting the many ways
you and I overlap and whatnot.

723
01:16:27,410 --> 01:16:30,210
I mean, you begin with our daddies.

724
01:16:30,410 --> 01:16:33,310
Your daddy was a pastor
at the New Hope Baptist Church...

725
01:16:33,510 --> 01:16:38,210
and my daddy was a pastor
at the church in Excelsior Springs.

726
01:16:39,710 --> 01:16:44,010
You're the youngest of three James boys,
and I'm the youngest of five Ford boys.

727
01:16:45,810 --> 01:16:48,510
Between Charley and me,
there's another brother, Wilbur...

728
01:16:48,710 --> 01:16:50,710
with six letters in his name.

729
01:16:51,010 --> 01:16:56,610
And between Frank and you,
is another brother Robert, also with six letters.

730
01:16:56,810 --> 01:17:00,610
And my Christian name is Robert, of course.

731
01:17:01,910 --> 01:17:04,110
You have blue eyes, I have blue eyes.

732
01:17:04,210 --> 01:17:08,210
You're 5'8" tall, I'm 5'8" tall.

733
01:17:13,010 --> 01:17:18,410
Me, I must have had a list as long
as your nightshirt when I was 12, but...

734
01:17:18,510 --> 01:17:22,010
I seem to have lost some curiosities
over the years.

735
01:17:40,210 --> 01:17:42,410
Ain't he something?

736
01:17:55,010 --> 01:17:59,210
Did I ever tell you the story about
that scalawag, George Shepherd?

737
01:17:59,510 --> 01:18:01,410
Shepherd's one of Quantrill's lieutenants.

738
01:18:01,610 --> 01:18:04,310
He give me a story much like Bob's
what bring him to mind.

739
01:18:04,810 --> 01:18:07,310
Going on about how much we had in common,
and so on...

740
01:18:07,510 --> 01:18:10,010
so he could get in the gang.

741
01:18:10,210 --> 01:18:13,310
How could I have known
he had a grudge against me?

742
01:18:13,510 --> 01:18:18,010
How could I have known
he was lying to get on my good side?

743
01:18:18,210 --> 01:18:23,110
I said, "George, come on aboard.
Glad to have you."

744
01:18:23,310 --> 01:18:28,110
George thought he was smart,
except he wasn't.

745
01:18:29,110 --> 01:18:32,210
One morning, George rides into camp...

746
01:18:32,410 --> 01:18:34,610
and about 20 guns open up on him.

747
01:18:38,410 --> 01:18:42,810
See, old George, he only had one eye.
You gotta have two eyes, you wanna get Jesse.

748
01:18:47,710 --> 01:18:50,810
You ought not think of me
like you do George Shepherd.

749
01:18:52,210 --> 01:18:54,410
You brought him to mind.

750
01:18:55,310 --> 01:18:57,610
Well, it's not very flattering.

751
01:19:03,610 --> 01:19:06,410
Sure is good eating, Martha.

752
01:19:07,310 --> 01:19:09,510
Well, I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

753
01:19:09,710 --> 01:19:11,810
How come George
had a grudge against you?

754
01:19:16,710 --> 01:19:20,810
I said, how come George
had a grudge against you?

755
01:19:26,610 --> 01:19:31,310
Well, you see, George had a nephew
he wanted me to protect during the war.

756
01:19:31,510 --> 01:19:33,710
This nephew had 5,000 dollars on him.

757
01:19:33,910 --> 01:19:38,510
It just so happens he winds up killed
and someone swipes that money.

758
01:19:38,610 --> 01:19:42,510
And when George is in prison,
someone whispers to him:

759
01:19:42,710 --> 01:19:46,410
"It was Jesse James slit the boy's throat."

760
01:19:51,110 --> 01:19:53,610
It was just mean gossip, was it?

761
01:19:55,410 --> 01:19:58,710
Bob's the expert. Let's put it to him.

762
01:20:03,810 --> 01:20:06,210
Oh, dear, I made him cranky.

763
01:20:06,410 --> 01:20:10,210
I'm not cranky.
I just been through this before is all.

764
01:20:10,310 --> 01:20:13,510
Most people get around on making fun of me.
They don't ever let up.

765
01:20:13,710 --> 01:20:15,710
Someone's getting awful fresh over there.

766
01:20:15,910 --> 01:20:18,610
Woman, shut your face for once.

767
01:20:25,610 --> 01:20:27,910
Don't want you to skip off
to your room and pout...

768
01:20:28,110 --> 01:20:30,610
without knowing why I come by
for this visit.

769
01:20:31,510 --> 01:20:33,710
Why? So you could tell us
how sorry you are...

770
01:20:33,910 --> 01:20:36,410
you had to slap our cousin Albert around?

771
01:20:50,010 --> 01:20:51,910
I come by...

772
01:20:52,010 --> 01:20:55,410
to ask if one of you two Fords...

773
01:20:55,610 --> 01:20:59,010
would care to ride with me
in a journey or two.

774
01:20:59,410 --> 01:21:02,810
I guess we both agree it ought to be Charley.

775
01:21:02,910 --> 01:21:05,710
You've been acting sort of testy.

776
01:21:36,710 --> 01:21:38,910
Have you seen Wood Hite lately?

777
01:21:39,510 --> 01:21:43,010
No. Not at all.

778
01:21:51,010 --> 01:21:53,610
I swear that stew
had some squirrel meat in it.

779
01:21:53,810 --> 01:21:56,510
- Still arguing with you, is it?
- Yeah.

780
01:21:57,310 --> 01:21:59,210
- You're Charles Ford?
- Yes, ma'am.

781
01:21:59,410 --> 01:22:01,410
You've seen me once or twice before.

782
01:22:02,810 --> 01:22:04,710
I got a letter from George Hite.

783
01:22:05,310 --> 01:22:08,210
He hasn't seen hide nor hair of him.

784
01:22:09,710 --> 01:22:11,910
And you say you haven't seen Wood?

785
01:22:12,710 --> 01:22:15,810
No, I...
I can't imagine where he could be.

786
01:22:43,310 --> 01:22:44,310
Yeah?

787
01:22:45,510 --> 01:22:47,610
You finished with your sleeping?

788
01:22:49,110 --> 01:22:51,610
I could use a couple more hours
if it's no trouble.

789
01:23:03,310 --> 01:23:04,910
Yeah.

790
01:23:08,510 --> 01:23:12,910
I been holding a discussion with myself over
if I ought to tell you this or no.

791
01:23:13,110 --> 01:23:15,810
My good side won out and...

792
01:23:17,010 --> 01:23:19,910
Well, I wanna make a clean breast of things.

793
01:23:21,010 --> 01:23:25,210
Yeah, my mind's a little cobwebby
is the only drawback.

794
01:23:25,310 --> 01:23:30,110
I could use a little...
a little more sleep.

795
01:23:32,710 --> 01:23:34,710
You know I went to Kentucky?

796
01:23:35,710 --> 01:23:37,110
Yeah.

797
01:23:37,810 --> 01:23:40,210
I come back through Saline County and...

798
01:23:41,610 --> 01:23:43,510
I think to myself:

799
01:23:44,010 --> 01:23:48,810
"Why not stop by and see Ed Miller?"

800
01:23:51,010 --> 01:23:52,710
So I do.

801
01:23:56,610 --> 01:23:59,910
Well, things are not to my satisfaction.

802
01:24:02,010 --> 01:24:04,810
Ed's got himself all worked up
over something.

803
01:24:06,310 --> 01:24:09,610
I can see that he's lying like a rug.

804
01:24:12,910 --> 01:24:16,010
So I say to myself, "Enough's enough."

805
01:24:16,510 --> 01:24:19,310
And I say to Ed, "Come on, Ed.

806
01:24:20,310 --> 01:24:22,610
Let's go for a ride."

807
01:24:24,410 --> 01:24:27,310
You understand what I'm saying?

808
01:24:28,610 --> 01:24:31,510
Going for a ride is like...

809
01:24:32,610 --> 01:24:35,710
Going for a ride
is like giving him what-for?

810
01:24:37,710 --> 01:24:39,410
Exactly.

811
01:24:43,910 --> 01:24:45,410
So...

812
01:24:48,110 --> 01:24:49,910
Ed and Jesse...

813
01:24:52,310 --> 01:24:54,610
they argue on the road.

814
01:24:59,110 --> 01:25:01,410
Did you ever count the stars?

815
01:25:04,910 --> 01:25:08,810
I can't ever get the same number.
They keep changing on me.

816
01:25:10,710 --> 01:25:13,710
I don't even know what a star is exactly.

817
01:25:16,410 --> 01:25:18,610
Well, your body knows.

818
01:25:19,510 --> 01:25:22,010
It's your mind that forgot.

819
01:25:31,810 --> 01:25:34,810
You go on ahead, partner.
I'll catch up with you.

820
01:26:15,010 --> 01:26:16,910
It's okay.

821
01:26:39,710 --> 01:26:43,110
It's okay, sweetheart. It's okay.

822
01:26:46,210 --> 01:26:48,610
And when push came to shove...

823
01:26:55,510 --> 01:26:57,910
Jesse shot and killed him.

824
01:27:01,210 --> 01:27:03,110
Jesse did.

825
01:27:05,610 --> 01:27:07,310
You got it.

826
01:27:09,310 --> 01:27:10,710
You...

827
01:27:27,310 --> 01:27:29,310
So, you see, your...

828
01:27:29,510 --> 01:27:31,910
Your cousin, he got off easy.

829
01:27:32,110 --> 01:27:33,710
I was just playing with Albert.

830
01:27:35,210 --> 01:27:38,910
Yeah, I made him squeal once or twice myself.

831
01:27:39,210 --> 01:27:42,210
I'm just not as thorough as you are.

832
01:27:53,510 --> 01:27:56,610
You got a tale to swap with me now?

833
01:28:05,310 --> 01:28:07,710
I don't get your meaning.

834
01:28:09,810 --> 01:28:15,110
Seems to me,
if you have something to confess in exchange...

835
01:28:15,310 --> 01:28:17,410
it'd only be right...

836
01:28:18,410 --> 01:28:21,710
that you'd spit it out now.

837
01:28:33,510 --> 01:28:35,610
I can't think of a single thing.

838
01:28:38,510 --> 01:28:41,310
About Wood Hite, for example.

839
01:28:41,510 --> 01:28:46,310
I'm not gonna... I been saying over and over
I can't figure out where he's gone.

840
01:28:46,510 --> 01:28:49,510
Now, I'm not gonna change my story
just to have something to spit.

841
01:28:49,710 --> 01:28:52,410
- Why was your brother so agitated?
- Which?

842
01:28:53,410 --> 01:28:54,510
Bob.

843
01:28:55,910 --> 01:28:58,810
That's just his way. He's antsy.

844
01:28:59,610 --> 01:29:01,110
You know?

845
01:29:17,210 --> 01:29:19,810
You go on back to sleep now.

846
01:29:21,510 --> 01:29:24,610
You got me agitated now, you see?

847
01:29:31,010 --> 01:29:35,210
Yeah, just ain't no peace
when old Jesse's around.

848
01:29:35,810 --> 01:29:38,810
You ought to pity my poor wife.

849
01:29:41,410 --> 01:29:43,610
Ed Miller was a good friend of mine.

850
01:29:43,810 --> 01:29:47,210
He introduced me to you
at that one poker game.

851
01:29:47,910 --> 01:29:52,010
I'm a little angry with you,
if you wanna know the God's honest truth.

852
01:29:54,410 --> 01:29:56,910
You ought to pity me too.

853
01:30:42,510 --> 01:30:46,410
As proof of his confederacy with the James Gang,
Bob told the authorities...

854
01:30:46,610 --> 01:30:50,110
that Dick Liddil was sleeping over
at the rented farmhouse...

855
01:30:50,310 --> 01:30:53,110
while his ruined leg mended.

856
01:30:58,110 --> 01:31:01,910
And then, created a map
of the Harbison property...

857
01:31:03,110 --> 01:31:08,310
leaving out the creek
where Wood Hite's remains now moldered.

858
01:31:09,110 --> 01:31:11,310
Right, you boys are cornered!

859
01:31:11,510 --> 01:31:16,010
Come on out peaceably
and nobody'll get shot up!

860
01:31:21,210 --> 01:31:22,210
Don't shoot!

861
01:31:26,810 --> 01:31:28,810
Come on out and show yourself!

862
01:31:43,910 --> 01:31:45,410
Hello.

863
01:31:45,710 --> 01:31:47,410
We got him.

864
01:31:47,810 --> 01:31:49,810
Give me that Colt, son.

865
01:31:54,710 --> 01:31:57,310
- All right.
- Andrew James Liddil...

866
01:31:57,510 --> 01:32:00,510
I have a warrant here for your arrest...

867
01:32:00,610 --> 01:32:05,010
Snowstorms would move over Missouri
that Sunday, February 19th...

868
01:32:05,210 --> 01:32:08,210
shutting down commerce
for more than two days.

869
01:32:09,810 --> 01:32:12,510
- Go, go, go.
- Are the papers here?

870
01:32:12,710 --> 01:32:16,310
- He wanted to know if the papers are here.
- I don't care what he wants.

871
01:32:16,510 --> 01:32:18,410
Yet this wouldn't prevent Robert Ford...

872
01:32:18,610 --> 01:32:21,010
from presenting himself
to Governor Crittenden...

873
01:32:21,110 --> 01:32:24,210
at the Craig Rifles Ball on Wednesday.

874
01:32:24,410 --> 01:32:28,010
I deem it a great privilege
on this glorious occasion...

875
01:32:28,110 --> 01:32:30,110
to recognize publicly...

876
01:32:30,310 --> 01:32:33,010
the intelligent and effective assistance...

877
01:32:33,110 --> 01:32:37,910
that Captain Henry Craig has rendered
the state of Missouri and myself...

878
01:32:38,110 --> 01:32:41,610
in our joint quest to rid Jackson County...

879
01:32:42,010 --> 01:32:43,910
of the James band.

880
01:32:44,110 --> 01:32:46,710
The task that Captain Craig has assumed...

881
01:32:46,910 --> 01:32:51,110
will require fearless courage,
extraordinary vigilance...

882
01:32:51,210 --> 01:32:54,210
and an unerring selection of instrumentalities.

883
01:32:55,310 --> 01:33:00,010
Well, I've gotten the signal from my wife
that enough is enough.

884
01:33:00,210 --> 01:33:02,510
However, before I sit...

885
01:33:02,710 --> 01:33:05,810
I would like to ask you
to join me in a toast...

886
01:33:06,310 --> 01:33:10,010
to a great son of the state of Missouri...

887
01:33:10,110 --> 01:33:14,010
- my friend, Henry Craig.
- Here, here.

888
01:33:26,710 --> 01:33:28,310
Yes.

889
01:33:29,310 --> 01:33:31,110
Just let my attorney know.

890
01:33:38,710 --> 01:33:42,010
Who is that? Who is it?

891
01:33:42,310 --> 01:33:43,910
Get out of the way now.

892
01:33:53,910 --> 01:33:58,010
You know, you're more goddamn trouble
than you're worth, Bob.

893
01:33:58,210 --> 01:33:59,910
I was just gonna say hello.

894
01:34:00,010 --> 01:34:03,310
No, you weren't gonna do that, Bob.
That's not why you're down here.

895
01:34:03,410 --> 01:34:08,710
You think it's your goddamn coming-out.
You think you're the belle of the ball.

896
01:34:08,910 --> 01:34:13,110
Now you get upstairs and try to keep your identity secret,
you silly little bastard.

897
01:34:13,310 --> 01:34:16,110
The governor'll see you in good time.
Take him up, boys.

898
01:34:21,610 --> 01:34:23,810
Bob would later be cross-examined repeatedly...

899
01:34:24,010 --> 01:34:28,110
about the exact nature of the deal
he had made with the authorities.

900
01:34:28,310 --> 01:34:31,310
And he was never consistent
in his recollections.

901
01:34:35,410 --> 01:34:39,710
My wife's asleep in the other room,
so let's speak as quietly as we can.

902
01:34:40,310 --> 01:34:42,610
So you're Dick Little.

903
01:34:44,410 --> 01:34:46,010
Liddil.

904
01:34:46,710 --> 01:34:48,610
I beg your pardon?

905
01:34:48,910 --> 01:34:50,510
I spell it with two D's.

906
01:34:50,710 --> 01:34:53,110
He's given us a full confession, governor.

907
01:34:53,210 --> 01:34:55,310
Newspapers haven't caught onto it yet.

908
01:34:55,510 --> 01:34:59,010
And you've guaranteed him
a conditional pardon...

909
01:34:59,210 --> 01:35:03,110
and amnesty for all the robberies
he's committed.

910
01:35:04,710 --> 01:35:06,010
You Robert Ford?

911
01:35:09,510 --> 01:35:10,810
How old are you?

912
01:35:12,810 --> 01:35:14,310
Twenty.

913
01:35:14,610 --> 01:35:17,110
You surrender to Sheriff Timberlake
as well?

914
01:35:17,310 --> 01:35:21,210
No, no, governor. That's his brother,
Charley Ford, he's in the James Gang.

915
01:35:21,310 --> 01:35:24,110
But little Bob here,
we got nothing on Bob.

916
01:35:24,210 --> 01:35:26,810
He's just acting in capacity as a...

917
01:35:29,010 --> 01:35:31,210
private detective.

918
01:35:32,410 --> 01:35:34,410
Jesse James sent me a telegram last month...

919
01:35:34,610 --> 01:35:37,710
saying he'd kill me
if he had to wreck a train to do it.

920
01:35:37,910 --> 01:35:40,510
He said once I got in his hands,
he'd cut my heart out...

921
01:35:40,710 --> 01:35:43,210
and eat it in strips like it was bacon.

922
01:35:43,410 --> 01:35:45,310
I'll wreck his train first.

923
01:35:52,910 --> 01:35:57,010
I'm sorry, Your Excellency.
I was thinking about something else.

924
01:35:57,210 --> 01:35:59,510
Jesse James is nothing more
than a public outlaw...

925
01:35:59,710 --> 01:36:02,510
who made his reputation
by stealing whatever he wanted...

926
01:36:02,710 --> 01:36:04,910
killing whoever got in his way.

927
01:36:05,110 --> 01:36:08,710
You'll hear some fools say he's getting back
at Republicans and Union men...

928
01:36:08,910 --> 01:36:11,610
for the wrongs his family suffered
during the war.

929
01:36:11,810 --> 01:36:16,510
But his victims have scarcely been selected
with reference to their political views.

930
01:36:17,010 --> 01:36:19,710
I'm saying his sins will soon find him out.

931
01:36:19,910 --> 01:36:22,610
I'm saying his cup of iniquity is full.

932
01:36:22,710 --> 01:36:25,410
I'm saying Jesse James is a desperate case...

933
01:36:25,710 --> 01:36:28,610
and may require a desperate remedy.

934
01:36:32,010 --> 01:36:35,110
Y'all got the right man for the job.

935
01:36:51,410 --> 01:36:53,710
Come on. Come on, now.

936
01:36:54,310 --> 01:36:55,910
Come on, now.

937
01:37:40,310 --> 01:37:42,810
Have you ever considered suicide?

938
01:37:44,910 --> 01:37:50,210
I can't say that I have.
There's always something else I wanted to do.

939
01:37:51,310 --> 01:37:57,210
Or my predicaments changed,
or I saw my hardships from a different slant.

940
01:37:57,310 --> 01:38:01,710
You know all what can happen.
It never seemed respectable.

941
01:38:08,510 --> 01:38:11,310
I'll tell you one thing that's for certain.

942
01:38:11,510 --> 01:38:15,510
You won't mind dying
once you've peeked over the other side.

943
01:38:19,310 --> 01:38:22,310
You'll no more wanna go back
to your body than...

944
01:38:22,510 --> 01:38:24,910
you'd wanna spoon up your own puke.

945
01:38:31,410 --> 01:38:34,210
Hey, since we're looking to rob banks...

946
01:38:34,410 --> 01:38:39,010
I was wondering if we could
add another fella to the gang...

947
01:38:39,210 --> 01:38:42,810
and sort of see if we couldn't come out
of our next job alive.

948
01:38:45,310 --> 01:38:50,310
Bob wanted to know could he ride with us
next time we took on a savings bank or...

949
01:38:56,610 --> 01:38:59,110
A savings bank or a...

950
01:39:00,810 --> 01:39:02,510
A railroad.

951
01:39:09,910 --> 01:39:13,210
Bob isn't much more than a boy
to most appearances.

952
01:39:13,410 --> 01:39:16,110
But there's about two tons of sand in him.

953
01:39:16,310 --> 01:39:19,510
And he'll stand with a shooter
when that's what's called for.

954
01:39:19,710 --> 01:39:24,010
And he's smart too.
He's about as intricate as they come.

955
01:39:26,110 --> 01:39:28,810
You forget I already met the kid.

956
01:39:30,110 --> 01:39:32,910
Hell, he surely thinks highly of you.

957
01:39:33,410 --> 01:39:36,210
All of America thinks highly of me.

958
01:39:36,910 --> 01:39:40,110
Still, not like you got two million names
to snatch out of a sock...

959
01:39:40,310 --> 01:39:42,410
whenever you need a third man.

960
01:39:45,910 --> 01:39:49,010
I can see you trying to wear me down on this.

961
01:39:49,110 --> 01:39:51,310
That's my main intention.

962
01:40:00,410 --> 01:40:03,110
Robberies would be conceived
but never carried out...

963
01:40:03,310 --> 01:40:06,810
in Nebraska, Colorado and Missouri.

964
01:40:07,510 --> 01:40:08,610
During this time...

965
01:40:08,710 --> 01:40:12,810
Henry Craig enjoined Robert Ford
to return to Elias' Grocery Store in Richmond...

966
01:40:12,910 --> 01:40:16,010
and await instructions
from Sheriff James Timberlake.

967
01:40:16,410 --> 01:40:18,710
All right, three cans...

968
01:40:18,910 --> 01:40:22,610
peaches. Two cans...

969
01:40:23,910 --> 01:40:26,410
Two cans sifted peas.

970
01:40:26,710 --> 01:40:28,310
One bottle...

971
01:40:31,210 --> 01:40:34,310
Mary's Morning Tonic, and a half...

972
01:40:37,410 --> 01:40:40,010
Half a sack of flour.

973
01:40:41,210 --> 01:40:43,210
I'll be right with you.

974
01:40:59,210 --> 01:41:01,510
I haven't seen any sign of him.

975
01:41:03,010 --> 01:41:05,410
Well, do you know where he's living?

976
01:41:06,510 --> 01:41:07,910
No.

977
01:41:09,010 --> 01:41:10,510
No?

978
01:41:13,210 --> 01:41:16,010
Well, I can't guess how he does it...

979
01:41:16,110 --> 01:41:20,410
but he is always knowledgeable
about what's going on.

980
01:41:20,610 --> 01:41:24,910
He's gonna know I've been here with you.
You ought to take that for granted.

981
01:41:27,410 --> 01:41:31,410
And he will kill you if he gets the chance.

982
01:41:34,610 --> 01:41:37,210
Are you willing to risk that?

983
01:41:41,810 --> 01:41:43,510
Yes, I am.

984
01:41:46,610 --> 01:41:48,310
I've been a nobody all my life.

985
01:41:49,310 --> 01:41:51,110
I was the baby.

986
01:41:51,410 --> 01:41:54,810
I was the one they made promises to
that they never kept.

987
01:41:56,010 --> 01:42:00,710
And ever since I can remember it,
Jesse James has been as big as a tree.

988
01:42:04,110 --> 01:42:06,410
I'm prepared for this, Jim...

989
01:42:07,310 --> 01:42:09,510
and I'm gonna accomplish it.

990
01:42:09,710 --> 01:42:11,810
I know I won't get
but this one opportunity...

991
01:42:12,010 --> 01:42:14,910
and you can bet your life
I'm not gonna spoil it.

992
01:42:26,910 --> 01:42:28,010
Well...

993
01:42:29,210 --> 01:42:31,210
wait for your chance.

994
01:42:31,710 --> 01:42:35,110
Don't let yourself be found alone with him,
and do not...

995
01:42:35,910 --> 01:42:38,310
let him get behind you.

996
01:43:06,510 --> 01:43:07,710
You been chosen.

997
01:43:12,610 --> 01:43:14,210
Well, what do you mean?

998
01:43:15,510 --> 01:43:18,010
Well, your brother said
that you might wanna join us.

999
01:43:18,210 --> 01:43:21,510
But maybe you like this grocery store
more than you said you did.

1000
01:43:24,810 --> 01:43:26,910
- So you missed me?
- Oh, yeah.

1001
01:43:27,610 --> 01:43:30,210
I been crying myself to sleep every night.

1002
01:43:39,810 --> 01:43:41,810
Don't let him see us so much as wink.

1003
01:43:41,910 --> 01:43:45,810
He's suspicious as a damn coyote,
and he don't trust you one iota.

1004
01:43:46,510 --> 01:43:48,310
- Well, I guess that makes...
- Hey.

1005
01:43:48,410 --> 01:43:52,910
He already put away Ed Miller.
He said so like it was something piddly he'd done.

1006
01:44:33,910 --> 01:44:38,110
If we're ever alone for more than a minute,
I'd like a chance to talk to you further.

1007
01:45:17,910 --> 01:45:20,110
They gave me ten days.

1008
01:45:24,010 --> 01:45:25,510
For what?

1009
01:45:27,510 --> 01:45:29,310
For arresting him.

1010
01:45:35,410 --> 01:45:37,110
You and me, huh?

1011
01:45:40,710 --> 01:45:44,010
It's gonna happen one way or another, Charley.
It's gonna happen.

1012
01:45:44,210 --> 01:45:46,810
So it might as well be us
who get rich on it.

1013
01:45:46,910 --> 01:45:50,210
- Bob, he's our friend.
- He murdered Ed Miller.

1014
01:45:50,910 --> 01:45:54,010
And he's gonna murder Liddil and Cummins
if the chance ever comes.

1015
01:45:55,410 --> 01:46:00,010
It seems to me Jesse's riding from man to man,
saying goodbye to the gang.

1016
01:46:01,510 --> 01:46:03,910
So your friendship could put you
under the pansies.

1017
01:46:06,010 --> 01:46:10,410
I'll grind it fine in my mind, Bob.
I can't go any further than that right now.

1018
01:46:14,010 --> 01:46:15,510
You'll come around.

1019
01:46:16,610 --> 01:46:19,110
You think it's all made up, don't you?

1020
01:46:19,210 --> 01:46:22,610
You think it's all yarns
and newspaper stories.

1021
01:46:30,410 --> 01:46:32,810
He's just a human being.

1022
01:46:41,010 --> 01:46:44,110
From now on, you two
won't go anywhere without me.

1023
01:46:44,910 --> 01:46:49,510
From now on, you'll ask for my permission!
From now on, you'll ask to be excused!

1024
01:47:45,410 --> 01:47:49,710
Charley, take them horses around the barn.
Bob, you go on inside.

1025
01:47:50,610 --> 01:47:51,910
- Hello, Mary.
- Hi.

1026
01:47:52,110 --> 01:47:55,210
Look at this rotten parsnip
I found in the compost heap.

1027
01:48:05,410 --> 01:48:07,310
You never mentioned Bob would be here.

1028
01:48:11,610 --> 01:48:14,610
Maybe he was saving it as a pleasant surprise.

1029
01:48:19,210 --> 01:48:21,910
Got two cousins for company now.

1030
01:48:31,610 --> 01:48:33,910
How it's gonna be is...

1031
01:48:34,310 --> 01:48:38,510
we'll leave next Monday afternoon
and ride down to Platte City.

1032
01:48:41,310 --> 01:48:43,310
How far is that from Kansas City?

1033
01:48:45,010 --> 01:48:47,810
Platte City's 30 miles south.

1034
01:48:49,410 --> 01:48:54,010
You and me and Charley'll sleep
in the woods overnight...

1035
01:48:54,610 --> 01:48:59,010
and we'll strike the Wells Bank
sometime before the court recesses.

1036
01:49:03,810 --> 01:49:06,710
What time will that be exactly?

1037
01:49:12,310 --> 01:49:14,910
Well, you don't need to know that.

1038
01:49:29,910 --> 01:49:32,910
You know, I'm real comfortable
with your brother.

1039
01:49:33,110 --> 01:49:35,610
Hell, he's ugly as sin,
he smells like a skunk...

1040
01:49:36,410 --> 01:49:39,910
and he's so ignorant
he couldn't drive nails in the snow...

1041
01:49:40,010 --> 01:49:42,510
but he's sort of easy to be around.

1042
01:49:43,010 --> 01:49:45,810
I can't say the same for you, Bob.

1043
01:49:49,210 --> 01:49:51,610
Well, I'm sorry to hear you say that.

1044
01:49:53,510 --> 01:49:57,510
You know how it is when you're with your girlfriend
and the moon's out...

1045
01:49:57,710 --> 01:50:01,710
and you know she wants to be kissed,
even though she never said so?

1046
01:50:05,210 --> 01:50:06,610
Yeah.

1047
01:50:09,310 --> 01:50:12,710
Well, you're giving me signs
that grieve my soul...

1048
01:50:13,610 --> 01:50:15,710
and make me wonder...

1049
01:50:16,110 --> 01:50:18,510
maybe your mind's been changed about me.

1050
01:50:18,810 --> 01:50:22,310
Well, what do you want me to do?
Swear my good faith on the Bible?

1051
01:50:39,810 --> 01:50:41,710
You two having a spat?

1052
01:50:47,010 --> 01:50:49,510
I was getting ready to be angry.

1053
01:50:54,910 --> 01:50:57,310
Sit over here closer, kid.

1054
01:50:59,510 --> 01:51:00,810
Come on.

1055
01:51:11,910 --> 01:51:14,310
Charley, you'll stay with the animals.

1056
01:51:14,910 --> 01:51:16,810
Me and the kid...

1057
01:51:17,010 --> 01:51:21,010
will walk into that bank just before noon.

1058
01:51:22,810 --> 01:51:25,510
Bob will move that cashier...

1059
01:51:26,010 --> 01:51:29,210
away from the shotgun
that's under the counter...

1060
01:51:29,410 --> 01:51:32,310
and I'll creep up behind that cashier...

1061
01:51:32,410 --> 01:51:34,810
and I'll cock his head back like so.

1062
01:51:35,010 --> 01:51:36,110
And I'll say:

1063
01:51:36,210 --> 01:51:39,010
"How come an off-scouring like you
is still sucking air...

1064
01:51:39,210 --> 01:51:41,410
when so many of mine are in coffins?"
I'll say:

1065
01:51:41,610 --> 01:51:44,910
"How did you get to reach 20
without leaking out all over your clothes?"

1066
01:51:45,410 --> 01:51:49,310
And if I don't like his attitude,
I will slit that phildoodle so deep...

1067
01:51:49,610 --> 01:51:52,610
he will flop on the floor like a fish.

1068
01:51:56,310 --> 01:51:58,610
My God, what just happened?

1069
01:52:07,910 --> 01:52:11,210
Boy, I could hear your gears grinding...

1070
01:52:11,610 --> 01:52:14,910
hear your little motor wondering,
"My gosh, what's next?

1071
01:52:15,110 --> 01:52:16,510
What's happening to me?"

1072
01:52:18,310 --> 01:52:20,210
You were precious to behold, Bob.

1073
01:52:20,410 --> 01:52:23,010
You were white as spit in a cotton field.

1074
01:52:23,510 --> 01:52:26,010
You got him. You got him.

1075
01:52:27,610 --> 01:52:31,710
You wanna know how that feels?
Unpleasant. I honestly can't recommend it.

1076
01:52:37,210 --> 01:52:39,710
The old Charley looked stricken!

1077
01:52:40,310 --> 01:52:42,210
I was. I was.

1078
01:52:42,310 --> 01:52:47,310
"This is plumb unexpected", old Charley was thinking.
"That done ruined my day."

1079
01:52:55,110 --> 01:52:56,610
Hell. Hell.

1080
01:53:27,510 --> 01:53:31,410
Jesse slept with Bob
in the children's room that night.

1081
01:53:32,710 --> 01:53:35,310
And Bob remained awake.

1082
01:53:38,110 --> 01:53:41,510
He could see that there was a gun
on the nightstand.

1083
01:53:42,410 --> 01:53:46,410
He could imagine its cold nickel
inside his grip...

1084
01:53:47,310 --> 01:53:50,810
its two-pound weight reached out
and aimed.

1085
01:54:21,910 --> 01:54:24,010
I need to go to the privy.

1086
01:54:25,210 --> 01:54:28,610
You think you do, but you don't.

1087
01:54:51,810 --> 01:54:54,010
You wait for grace, now.

1088
01:54:54,910 --> 01:54:58,310
- Thank you, Mama.
- Thank you, Zee. God, that looks good.

1089
01:54:58,510 --> 01:55:00,110
- Thank you, Zee.
- You're welcome.

1090
01:55:00,310 --> 01:55:03,310
Well, is this fit to eat or will it just do?

1091
01:55:06,310 --> 01:55:08,410
Woman's cooking's always been a scandal.

1092
01:55:08,510 --> 01:55:10,910
Cut her meat and the whole table moves.

1093
01:55:11,810 --> 01:55:13,910
You want a biscuit?
You gonna have a biscuit?

1094
01:55:14,110 --> 01:55:17,910
Here's some butter.
Come on. Come on.

1095
01:55:19,810 --> 01:55:21,110
Oh, shoot.

1096
01:55:21,310 --> 01:55:25,110
And so it went,
Jesse was increasingly cavalier...

1097
01:55:25,210 --> 01:55:29,010
merry, moody, fey...

1098
01:55:29,110 --> 01:55:31,210
unpredictable.

1099
01:55:32,810 --> 01:55:35,910
He camouflaged his depressions
and derangements...

1100
01:55:36,110 --> 01:55:40,110
with masquerades of extreme cordiality,
courtesy...

1101
01:55:40,310 --> 01:55:43,010
and goodwill towards others.

1102
01:55:44,110 --> 01:55:48,410
But even as he jested,
or tickled his boy in the ribs...

1103
01:55:48,510 --> 01:55:52,210
Jesse would look over at Bob
with melancholy eyes...

1104
01:55:52,310 --> 01:55:56,310
as if the two were meshed
in an intimate communication.

1105
01:55:59,110 --> 01:56:01,710
Bob was certain that the man
had unriddled him...

1106
01:56:01,910 --> 01:56:04,610
had seen through his reasons
for coming along...

1107
01:56:04,710 --> 01:56:08,710
that Jesse could forecast
each of Bob's possible moves and inclinations...

1108
01:56:08,910 --> 01:56:10,810
and was only acting the innocent...

1109
01:56:10,910 --> 01:56:15,910
in order to lull Bob
into stupid tranquility and miscalculation.

1110
01:56:37,510 --> 01:56:39,710
How long you been studying me?

1111
01:56:41,710 --> 01:56:44,410
You're gonna break a lot of hearts.

1112
01:56:52,310 --> 01:56:53,510
How do you mean?

1113
01:57:02,710 --> 01:57:04,510
It's a present.

1114
01:57:09,110 --> 01:57:10,710
It's heavy.

1115
01:57:11,310 --> 01:57:13,410
Well, you gonna look inside?

1116
01:57:15,010 --> 01:57:16,810
It's April Fools' Day, you know.

1117
01:57:17,410 --> 01:57:19,210
It ain't no joke.

1118
01:57:26,710 --> 01:57:28,310
Oh, such extravagance.

1119
01:57:29,810 --> 01:57:32,510
Don't that nickel just shine, though?

1120
01:57:32,710 --> 01:57:34,310
It's more than I could hope for.

1121
01:57:34,410 --> 01:57:37,210
I figured that granddaddy Colt
may blow into fragments...

1122
01:57:37,410 --> 01:57:40,210
next time you try to squeeze the trigger.

1123
01:57:40,410 --> 01:57:42,810
Well, you might have something there.

1124
01:57:43,310 --> 01:57:45,910
Tom, supper's ready.

1125
01:57:47,110 --> 01:57:49,110
I'll be right there, sweetheart.

1126
01:57:49,310 --> 01:57:51,610
I might be too excited to eat.

1127
01:57:54,910 --> 01:57:57,410
You know what John Newman Edwards
once wrote about me?

1128
01:57:58,410 --> 01:58:01,310
He said I didn't trust two men in 10,000...

1129
01:58:01,410 --> 01:58:04,110
and even them I was cautious around.

1130
01:58:04,910 --> 01:58:06,910
Government's sort of run me ragged.

1131
01:58:08,910 --> 01:58:11,910
I'm going the long way around the barn
to say that...

1132
01:58:12,010 --> 01:58:15,710
I been feeling cornered
and just plain ornery as of late...

1133
01:58:16,410 --> 01:58:21,110
and I'd be pleased if you'd accept that gun
as my way of apologizing.

1134
01:58:23,510 --> 01:58:26,310
Heaven knows I'd be ornerier
if I were in your position.

1135
01:58:26,410 --> 01:58:29,510
No. No, I haven't been acting correctly.

1136
01:58:31,310 --> 01:58:34,910
Seems I hardly recognize myself
when I'm greased.

1137
01:58:37,910 --> 01:58:40,410
I go on journeys out of my body...

1138
01:58:40,610 --> 01:58:44,710
and look at my red hands
and my mean face...

1139
01:58:45,510 --> 01:58:49,210
and I wonder about that man
that's gone so wrong.

1140
01:58:53,010 --> 01:58:56,010
I've been becoming a problem to myself.

1141
01:59:08,710 --> 01:59:10,010
Well...

1142
01:59:16,710 --> 01:59:21,310
- I better wash my hands if supper's on.
- Yeah, go ahead.

1143
01:59:34,710 --> 01:59:37,610
The day before he died was Palm Sunday.

1144
01:59:38,610 --> 01:59:41,910
And Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Howard,
their two children...

1145
01:59:42,110 --> 01:59:44,210
and their cousin Charles Johnson...

1146
01:59:44,310 --> 01:59:49,510
strolled to the Second Presbyterian Church
to attend the 10:00 service.

1147
01:59:51,910 --> 01:59:54,210
Bob remained at the cottage...

1148
01:59:54,410 --> 01:59:57,810
and slyly migrated from room to room.

1149
02:00:00,410 --> 02:00:02,210
He walked into the master bedroom...

1150
02:00:02,410 --> 02:00:06,210
and inventoried the clothes
on the hangers and hooks.

1151
02:00:12,510 --> 02:00:15,810
He sipped from the water glass
on the vanity.

1152
02:00:18,110 --> 02:00:22,410
He smelled the talcum and lilacs
on Jesse's pillowcase.

1153
02:00:30,310 --> 02:00:32,510
His fingers skittered over his ribs...

1154
02:00:32,710 --> 02:00:36,610
to construe the scars
where Jesse was twice shot.

1155
02:00:40,410 --> 02:00:45,010
He manufactured a middle finger
that was missing the top two knuckles.

1156
02:00:52,410 --> 02:00:55,310
He imagined himself at 34.

1157
02:00:57,310 --> 02:01:00,310
He imagined himself in a coffin.

1158
02:01:02,410 --> 02:01:04,110
He considered possibilities...

1159
02:01:04,310 --> 02:01:07,610
and everything wonderful
that could come true.

1160
02:01:35,410 --> 02:01:37,310
He's not gonna kill us.

1161
02:01:42,610 --> 02:01:44,710
Yeah, he is.

1162
02:01:47,110 --> 02:01:49,510
Well, I'll stay awake so he can't.

1163
02:02:02,910 --> 02:02:05,310
You're imagining things.

1164
02:02:17,610 --> 02:02:19,610
Ain't gonna be no Platte City.

1165
02:02:21,310 --> 02:02:23,910
That's Jesse fooling with us.

1166
02:02:40,310 --> 02:02:42,610
Go to sleep, Charley.

1167
02:03:16,210 --> 02:03:17,810
Morning.

1168
02:03:21,610 --> 02:03:23,110
Charley.

1169
02:03:53,010 --> 02:03:55,410
Bob, how much did you want to eat?

1170
02:03:59,910 --> 02:04:02,310
I'm feeling sort of peculiar.

1171
02:04:21,510 --> 02:04:24,010
Why is it you're looking so interested?

1172
02:04:25,510 --> 02:04:28,410
You think it's intelligent
to go out like that...

1173
02:04:28,610 --> 02:04:30,410
so all creation can see your guns?

1174
02:04:48,110 --> 02:04:49,610
Hi.

1175
02:04:59,910 --> 02:05:02,810
Come on, let's go see
what your mama's doing.

1176
02:05:03,910 --> 02:05:06,010
Timmy, get that door, would you?

1177
02:05:10,210 --> 02:05:13,410
- Well, you lost your shoe, sweetheart.
- Yeah, I did.

1178
02:05:13,510 --> 02:05:17,710
That's gonna be a problem.
They don't sell those one at a time.

1179
02:05:19,210 --> 02:05:21,210
We lost a shoe, Mama.

1180
02:05:22,810 --> 02:05:25,410
Will you put that up for Daddy,
would you?

1181
02:05:28,510 --> 02:05:31,210
- What you doing, you lose a shoe?
- Yeah.

1182
02:05:48,010 --> 02:05:51,410
It's only meant to go on top,
to complement.

1183
02:05:51,610 --> 02:05:53,510
Yeah, I know. Sometimes, I...

1184
02:06:18,110 --> 02:06:21,010
Bob, everything's getting cold!

1185
02:06:21,710 --> 02:06:25,110
- Where's Mary?
- She's outside, darling.

1186
02:06:26,110 --> 02:06:27,910
Mary?

1187
02:06:31,610 --> 02:06:34,210
What do you think goes on
in that noggin of his?

1188
02:06:37,210 --> 02:06:38,910
Nothing.

1189
02:06:39,510 --> 02:06:42,210
I was talking about his mind, not yours.

1190
02:06:43,210 --> 02:06:44,910
Oh, yeah.

1191
02:06:45,410 --> 02:06:47,110
Oh, I get it.

1192
02:07:42,510 --> 02:07:44,410
Well, hello now.

1193
02:07:44,810 --> 02:07:47,910
"The arrest and confession of Dick Liddil."

1194
02:07:53,110 --> 02:07:55,310
You don't say so.

1195
02:08:09,610 --> 02:08:11,710
That's very strange.

1196
02:08:12,110 --> 02:08:15,010
Says here Dick surrendered three weeks ago.

1197
02:08:15,210 --> 02:08:17,810
You must have been right in the neighborhood.

1198
02:08:18,510 --> 02:08:21,110
Well, apparently, they kept it a secret.

1199
02:08:32,310 --> 02:08:35,410
If I get to Kansas City soon,
I'll ask somebody about it.

1200
02:09:16,110 --> 02:09:17,810
You two ready?

1201
02:09:21,510 --> 02:09:24,110
I will be, by noon.

1202
02:09:57,010 --> 02:09:59,710
There is a ship
She sails the sea

1203
02:09:59,910 --> 02:10:02,610
She's loaded deep
As deep can be

1204
02:10:02,810 --> 02:10:05,110
But not as deep
As the love I'm in

1205
02:10:05,610 --> 02:10:09,310
I know not if I sink or swim

1206
02:10:10,310 --> 02:10:12,010
The water is wide

1207
02:10:13,110 --> 02:10:19,710
I can't cross o'er
And neither have I wings to fly

1208
02:10:20,110 --> 02:10:23,910
Give me a boat
That can carry two

1209
02:10:24,110 --> 02:10:27,010
Both shall row
My love and I

1210
02:10:27,110 --> 02:10:30,610
For love is gentle
And love is kind

1211
02:10:30,810 --> 02:10:33,810
Sweetest flower
When first it's new

1212
02:10:34,010 --> 02:10:37,510
But love grows old
And waxes cold

1213
02:10:37,710 --> 02:10:41,010
And fades away
Like the morning dew

1214
02:10:41,110 --> 02:10:44,210
There is a ship
She sails the sea

1215
02:10:44,310 --> 02:10:47,110
I guess I'll take my guns off...

1216
02:10:47,410 --> 02:10:49,410
for fear the neighbors might spy them.

1217
02:11:22,710 --> 02:11:25,210
Don't that picture look dusty?

1218
02:13:07,310 --> 02:13:10,310
What have...?
What have you done?

1219
02:13:12,710 --> 02:13:14,310
Jesse.

1220
02:13:19,910 --> 02:13:20,910
Jesse?

1221
02:13:22,110 --> 02:13:24,210
Jesse? Jesse?

1222
02:13:24,910 --> 02:13:26,810
Jesse!

1223
02:13:27,810 --> 02:13:29,910
No!

1224
02:13:34,110 --> 02:13:36,410
No. Jess...

1225
02:13:37,010 --> 02:13:41,410
Come back. Oh, come back.

1226
02:13:43,510 --> 02:13:47,710
Oh, Jesse! No!

1227
02:13:48,210 --> 02:13:52,110
Oh, Bob. Have you done this?

1228
02:13:52,310 --> 02:13:54,710
I swear to God I didn't.

1229
02:13:55,710 --> 02:13:57,110
It was an accident, Zee.

1230
02:13:59,310 --> 02:14:02,710
Come on.
Pistol went off accidentally.

1231
02:14:48,010 --> 02:14:49,210
Put my name.

1232
02:14:49,410 --> 02:14:51,910
Why, what'd you do? I shot him.

1233
02:14:59,110 --> 02:15:01,110
You might wanna keep that.

1234
02:15:39,110 --> 02:15:41,110
Thank you all very much.

1235
02:15:49,310 --> 02:15:51,810
The resulting prints
sold for 2 dollars apiece...

1236
02:15:52,010 --> 02:15:56,610
and were the models for the lithographed covers
on a number of magazines.

1237
02:16:02,110 --> 02:16:07,310
Soon a thousand strangers
were making spellbound pilgrimages to the cottage...

1238
02:16:07,710 --> 02:16:12,210
or were venerating the iced remains
in Seidenfaden's cooling room.

1239
02:16:13,110 --> 02:16:17,610
The man who offered 30,000 dollars
for the body of President Garfield's assassin...

1240
02:16:17,810 --> 02:16:21,710
sent a telegram to City Marshal Enos Craig
offering 50,000...

1241
02:16:21,910 --> 02:16:24,210
for the body of Jesse Woodson James...

1242
02:16:24,310 --> 02:16:27,110
so that he could go around the country
with it...

1243
02:16:29,510 --> 02:16:34,510
or at least sell it to P.T. Barnum
for his Greatest Show on Earth.

1244
02:16:38,510 --> 02:16:41,610
Another photograph was taken
of the renowned American bandit...

1245
02:16:41,810 --> 02:16:44,410
nestled in his bed of ice.

1246
02:16:44,610 --> 02:16:48,910
And it was this shot that was most available
in sundries and apothecaries...

1247
02:16:49,010 --> 02:16:52,710
to be viewed in a stereoscope
alongside the sphinx...

1248
02:16:52,910 --> 02:16:56,910
the Taj Mahal,
and the catacombs of Rome.

1249
02:17:22,110 --> 02:17:24,010
Hello, here!

1250
02:17:24,210 --> 02:17:26,810
"The arrest and confession of Dick Liddil."

1251
02:17:27,010 --> 02:17:32,110
Young man, I thought you told me
you didn't know Dick had surrendered.

1252
02:17:32,310 --> 02:17:36,210
You mean he did? I didn't know.

1253
02:17:37,110 --> 02:17:39,010
But I knew I had not fooled him.

1254
02:17:39,110 --> 02:17:43,010
And he knew, as well as I, in that moment
that I intended to bring him to justice.

1255
02:17:43,910 --> 02:17:47,510
But he would not kill me
in the presence of his wife and children.

1256
02:17:47,710 --> 02:17:50,910
And so he was smiling to throw me off-guard.

1257
02:17:54,110 --> 02:17:56,810
Well, it's all right, anyway, Bob.

1258
02:17:58,710 --> 02:18:01,610
It was widely felt that Bob
possessed some acting talent...

1259
02:18:01,710 --> 02:18:04,010
and Charley, not a jot.

1260
02:18:04,210 --> 02:18:07,110
That picture's awful dusty.

1261
02:18:07,910 --> 02:18:11,010
Charley was only expected
not to slouch or mutter...

1262
02:18:11,210 --> 02:18:15,910
and to transport his sicknesses
to the alley before letting them go.

1263
02:18:45,310 --> 02:18:47,110
And that's...

1264
02:18:47,710 --> 02:18:50,410
how I killed Jesse James.

1265
02:18:53,910 --> 02:18:57,410
By October of 1883,
Bob Ford could be identified correctly...

1266
02:18:57,610 --> 02:19:01,810
by more citizens than could
the president of the United States.

1267
02:19:02,510 --> 02:19:07,210
He was as renowned at 20 as Jesse was
after 14 years of grand larceny.

1268
02:19:07,410 --> 02:19:09,610
You won't get your hooks into me.

1269
02:19:10,110 --> 02:19:14,910
That's right. That's right.
Sit next to your boyfriend. Jezebel.

1270
02:19:15,010 --> 02:19:17,110
Charley was increasingly superstitious...

1271
02:19:17,310 --> 02:19:20,010
increasingly subject
to the advice of soothsayers...

1272
02:19:20,210 --> 02:19:24,210
who promised to cure his miseries
with pipe smoke and poultices.

1273
02:19:24,410 --> 02:19:27,610
You been spending too much time
with Gypsies, Charley.

1274
02:19:33,410 --> 02:19:34,710
Shit.

1275
02:19:39,110 --> 02:19:41,610
The picture's awful dusty.

1276
02:19:42,110 --> 02:19:45,910
Something began to change
in Charley's stage portrayal of Jesse.

1277
02:19:46,110 --> 02:19:48,610
His gait seemed more practiced.

1278
02:19:48,810 --> 02:19:52,110
His voice was spookily similar to the man's.

1279
02:19:52,210 --> 02:19:54,610
His newly suggested dialogue was analogous...

1280
02:19:54,810 --> 02:19:57,810
to a script Jesse might have originated.

1281
02:20:00,710 --> 02:20:03,110
He began to look at his younger brother
with spite...

1282
02:20:03,310 --> 02:20:05,910
as if he suspected
that in some future performance...

1283
02:20:06,110 --> 02:20:10,610
he might present himself
to a live cartridge in Robert Ford's gun.

1284
02:20:11,910 --> 02:20:13,810
Murderer!

1285
02:20:14,110 --> 02:20:15,810
Cur!

1286
02:20:16,510 --> 02:20:18,210
Coward!

1287
02:20:21,810 --> 02:20:26,310
You wanna investigate my courage?
Do you?

1288
02:20:26,710 --> 02:20:30,510
Find out! Find out!

1289
02:20:35,110 --> 02:20:37,010
Nobody.

1290
02:20:51,610 --> 02:20:53,410
Coward!

1291
02:21:18,610 --> 02:21:24,110
By his own approximation,
Bob assassinated Jesse James over 800 times.

1292
02:21:24,310 --> 02:21:28,110
He suspected no one in history
had ever so often or so publicly...

1293
02:21:28,210 --> 02:21:31,410
recapitulated an act of betrayal.

1294
02:21:36,610 --> 02:21:39,410
Bob always challenged
the allegations of cowardice...

1295
02:21:39,610 --> 02:21:42,510
but Charley seemed to agree with them.

1296
02:21:42,810 --> 02:21:46,610
He spoke of Mrs. Zee James
as certain priests might the Madonna...

1297
02:21:46,710 --> 02:21:49,810
and composed long soul-describing letters
to her...

1298
02:21:50,010 --> 02:21:52,210
begging her forgiveness...

1299
02:21:53,510 --> 02:21:56,110
none of which he mailed.

1300
02:22:24,010 --> 02:22:29,610
Charley Ford became all that his countrymen
wanted an assassin of Jesse James to be.

1301
02:22:33,810 --> 02:22:39,710
Jesse James was a man
Who killed many men

1302
02:22:40,910 --> 02:22:45,310
He robbed the Glendale train

1303
02:22:45,610 --> 02:22:51,410
And he stole from the rich
And he gave to the poor

1304
02:22:51,710 --> 02:22:56,610
He had a hand
And a heart and a brain

1305
02:22:57,410 --> 02:23:02,910
Well, Jesse had a wife
To mourn for his life

1306
02:23:03,110 --> 02:23:08,210
Three children
They were brave

1307
02:23:08,310 --> 02:23:13,910
But that dirty little coward
Who shot Mr. Howard

1308
02:23:14,210 --> 02:23:19,210
Has laid Jesse James in his grave

1309
02:23:20,310 --> 02:23:25,310
It was Robert Ford
That dirty little coward

1310
02:23:26,110 --> 02:23:30,510
I wonder how does he feel

1311
02:23:30,610 --> 02:23:36,410
For he ate at Jesse's bread
And he slept in Jesse's bed

1312
02:23:36,510 --> 02:23:41,610
And he laid poor Jesse in his grave

1313
02:23:42,010 --> 02:23:47,610
Well, Jesse had a wife
To mourn for his life

1314
02:23:47,710 --> 02:23:52,610
Three children
They were brave

1315
02:23:52,810 --> 02:23:58,410
But that dirty little coward
Who shot Mr. Howard

1316
02:23:58,610 --> 02:24:02,810
Has laid poor Jesse in his grave

1317
02:24:14,310 --> 02:24:16,410
I'm Robert Ford.

1318
02:24:27,110 --> 02:24:30,810
It was two children, not three.

1319
02:24:42,210 --> 02:24:43,510
Hey.

1320
02:24:44,410 --> 02:24:47,010
You get yourself home, son, okay?

1321
02:24:47,710 --> 02:24:51,710
Come on. Get out of here.
Get out of my place.

1322
02:25:23,510 --> 02:25:25,710
He thought, at his angriest...

1323
02:25:25,910 --> 02:25:29,610
about visiting the kin
of Jesse's slaughtered victims:

1324
02:25:31,610 --> 02:25:34,910
Mrs. William Westfall in Plattsburg...

1325
02:25:37,410 --> 02:25:40,510
the Wymore family in Clay County...

1326
02:25:45,610 --> 02:25:49,910
perhaps even Mrs. Joseph Heywood
in Northfield, Minnesota.

1327
02:25:53,010 --> 02:25:56,010
He would go to their homes
and give his name as Robert Ford...

1328
02:25:56,210 --> 02:25:59,110
the man who killed Jesse James.

1329
02:26:00,610 --> 02:26:03,610
He imagined they would be grateful to him.

1330
02:26:54,610 --> 02:26:59,610
It was only with Dorothy Evans
that Bob spoke revealingly or plainly...

1331
02:26:59,810 --> 02:27:04,210
and it was with her that he spoke of things
he didn't know he knew.

1332
02:27:25,910 --> 02:27:29,910
He told her that he had no real memory
of the shooting and its aftermath.

1333
02:27:30,110 --> 02:27:34,010
He could remember lifting the gun
that Jesse had given him...

1334
02:27:34,710 --> 02:27:38,710
and then it was Good Friday
and he was reading about the funeral proceedings...

1335
02:27:38,910 --> 02:27:41,410
as if they'd happened a long time ago.

1336
02:27:43,010 --> 02:27:45,110
Why did you kill him?

1337
02:27:49,510 --> 02:27:51,510
Well, he was gonna kill me.

1338
02:27:56,710 --> 02:27:59,910
So you were scared
and that's the only reason?

1339
02:28:02,710 --> 02:28:04,110
Yeah.

1340
02:28:04,510 --> 02:28:06,610
And the reward money.

1341
02:28:12,410 --> 02:28:15,210
Do you want me to change the subject?

1342
02:28:23,410 --> 02:28:25,810
You know what I expected?

1343
02:28:26,810 --> 02:28:28,810
Applause.

1344
02:28:31,410 --> 02:28:35,510
I was only 20 years old then.
I couldn't see how it would look to people.

1345
02:28:39,610 --> 02:28:42,310
I was surprised by what happened.

1346
02:28:43,410 --> 02:28:45,310
They didn't applaud.

1347
02:28:48,810 --> 02:28:50,610
He was ashamed of his boasting...

1348
02:28:50,810 --> 02:28:53,710
his pretensions of courage
and ruthlessness.

1349
02:28:54,010 --> 02:28:57,710
He was sorry about his cold-bloodedness,
his dispassion...

1350
02:28:59,410 --> 02:29:03,810
his inability to express
what he now believed was the case:

1351
02:29:06,410 --> 02:29:09,410
That he truly regretted killing Jesse...

1352
02:29:10,210 --> 02:29:13,210
that he missed the man
as much as anybody...

1353
02:29:13,710 --> 02:29:16,810
and wished his murder
hadn't been necessary.

1354
02:29:36,310 --> 02:29:38,410
Even as he circulated his saloon...

1355
02:29:38,610 --> 02:29:42,310
he knew that the smiles disappeared
when he passed by.

1356
02:29:43,410 --> 02:29:45,310
He received so many menacing letters...

1357
02:29:45,410 --> 02:29:48,910
that he could read them
without any reaction except curiosity.

1358
02:29:52,710 --> 02:29:57,510
He kept to his apartment all day,
flipping over playing cards...

1359
02:29:59,010 --> 02:30:03,510
looking at his destiny
in every king and jack.

1360
02:30:07,710 --> 02:30:12,010
Edward O'Kelly came up from Bachelor
at 1 p.m. on the 8th.

1361
02:30:13,510 --> 02:30:17,410
He had no grand scheme, no strategy...

1362
02:30:17,610 --> 02:30:20,010
no agreement with higher authorities...

1363
02:30:20,110 --> 02:30:22,910
nothing beyond a vague longing for glory...

1364
02:30:24,010 --> 02:30:28,210
and a generalized wish
for revenge against Robert Ford.

1365
02:30:36,010 --> 02:30:39,310
- How'd it go last night?
- Not so bad.

1366
02:30:42,510 --> 02:30:43,910
The other one.

1367
02:30:46,410 --> 02:30:49,210
Edward O'Kelly would be ordered
to serve a life sentence...

1368
02:30:49,410 --> 02:30:52,310
in the Colorado Penitentiary
for second-degree murder.

1369
02:30:52,410 --> 02:30:55,210
Over 7000 signatures
would eventually be gathered...

1370
02:30:55,410 --> 02:30:57,610
on a petition asking for O'Kelly's release...

1371
02:30:57,810 --> 02:31:02,810
and in 1902, Governor James B. Orman
would pardon the man.

1372
02:31:03,410 --> 02:31:07,810
You shouldn't be wearing that stickpin
again there, Bob. Opals are unlucky.

1373
02:31:09,310 --> 02:31:13,510
My luck's not very good as it is.
I don't think an opal's gonna change that much.

1374
02:31:14,410 --> 02:31:15,810
I hear you.

1375
02:31:29,410 --> 02:31:31,310
There would be no eulogies for Bob...

1376
02:31:33,010 --> 02:31:37,110
no photographs of his body
would be sold in sundries stores...

1377
02:31:37,810 --> 02:31:42,110
no people would crowd the streets
in the rain to see his funeral cortege...

1378
02:31:43,910 --> 02:31:46,910
no biographies would be written
about him...

1379
02:31:47,010 --> 02:31:49,610
no children named after him.

1380
02:31:51,210 --> 02:31:55,910
No one would ever pay 25 cents
to stand in the rooms he grew up in.

1381
02:32:00,410 --> 02:32:02,210
Hello, Bob.

1382
02:32:03,610 --> 02:32:07,810
The shotgun would ignite,
and Ella Mae would scream...

1383
02:32:08,610 --> 02:32:12,310
but Robert Ford would only lay on the floor
and look at the ceiling...

1384
02:32:12,410 --> 02:32:14,910
the light going out of his eyes...

1385
02:32:15,110 --> 02:32:17,810
before he could find the right words.
