Original subtitles

I can tell the way Carlos is horseman's.

Oh, porque, no, you stole the horse.

Hey, muchachos.

I see the wagons.

Hey, Jose, you was right.

The wagons, they hold plenty much.

Who's the rabbit?

I am hungry.

Who's the illegal rabbit?

But I am hungry, patron.

You talk like the old woman.

You should have been with Santana and me.

The old journal, he slipped a high from

your back and see that to you.

The worst thing that happened to us was

when you was in the army.

You weren't even born, Dan.

Still the same thing?

Come on, let's

go.

I tell you what, three

gringo wagons put it full too, huh?

When do we get them, Efe?

Don't We don't have no trouble.

I get tired for killing the people.

Greetings, Brother Roak.

Where's Hawks?

I believe Brother Hawks is getting ready to

ride ahead a few miles.

Huh?

Well, I got something to say to him.

Why don't you quit your belly, Inc.

and Roak?

He's got troubles enough.

That's easy enough for you to say.

You've got nothing to lose.

I'm sure that Brother Hawks will see to

it that he does not lose anything, Brother

Roak.

You get your frying pans to go canyon,

Roak.

Not that anyone will have enough money to

pay your prices for them.

They'll pay for them.

Oh, Hawks, I want to talk to you.

Go ahead, Roak.

I got $5,000 worth of hardware in

that wagon of mine.

And the way you're going looks like you

aim to lose it for me.

Is that right?

Yeah.

I got eyes.

I can read a map.

But before we left the train, Major Adams

told you that the Indians were running wild

south of Gold Canyon.

And you're leading us right into them.

For your information, Roak, the Indians are running

wild northeast, south, and west of Gold Canyon.

And I've picked what I figure the safest

route.

We got to head northeast.

Then we'll circle back.

It's just so right here on the map.

Look yourself.

We've been through this before, Mr. Roak.

We voted to go the way Mr. Hawks

thinks best.

You did.

I didn't.

And why didn't you strike up by yourself,

Roak?

Oh, we'd miss you.

But we try and get along.

Oh, you know I couldn't do nothing like

that.

Brother Roak, the worry is nice enough unnecessarily.

He forgets that we come as friends of

the Indians.

I don't forget.

But who's told the Indians?

Raleigh, I want to talk to you a

minute.

Sure.

I'm going to ride out about 10 miles

ahead.

There's a spring up in those buttes.

I figure tomorrow we can stop and water

the stock and get some fresh supply of

water.

Have you seen an Indian sign?

No, but I expect maybe I might.

You know, those Mescaleros get a little upset

when you start digging for gold in their

hunting grounds.

I want you to take over, and I'll

be back in a few hours.

Can I gag Roak?

You know, Raleigh, he's a sour, bitter old

man.

He keeps worrying about that hardware he is

all the time.

I don't think you'll have any trouble.

Just keep your eyes open.

That rifle here is handy.

You and me are about the only troops

I got around here.

You can count on me, Bill.

I know I can.

Do you think he might see Indians, Mr.

Hawks?

Oh, I don't reckon so, Joey.

But if I do, I'll give him your

regards, huh?

All right.

We wish you a safe trip, Brother Hawks.

Thank you.

Brother Roak, why does he not like Brother

Hawks?

Because he's a fool.

Now go on.

Go away.

Major Adams says Brother Hawks was a good

guide.

There's lots of fools in this world, like

your maw and your paw.

They're fools, too.

Brotherly love.

Why, they get butchered just as soon as

anybody else.

Now I'm going to tell you something, boy.

Don't you trust nobody in this whole world?

Don't you believe nothing that nobody says?

You go on your own, or you're going

to be sorry.

I trust thee, Brother Roak.

Well, that shows you're a fool, too.

Just like your maw and your paw.

Now go on.

Get out of here.

I got work to do.

Father, why is Brother Roak so cranky?

He asks me questions I cannot answer.

Now sit down, son.

Brother Roak is an old man, Joseph.

When a tree grows in the rocks without

sun and without water, when it grows old,

it becomes gnarled and bent.

It is the same with a man's soul.

We know nothing of his soul, Patience.

I doubt if he's got one.

He is a child of God, Brother Raleigh.

Maybe, but I wouldn't swear to it.

This stew smells awfully good, Patience.

Salt pork is a poor substitute for good

beef, doctor.

But the fresh meat is all gone.

I should take some to Brother Roak.

Brother Roak knows that he is welcome here.

If he wishes to come, he will come.

We must not force ourselves upon him.

Yes, sir.

The old skin flinch.

What's a skin flinch, Brother Raleigh?

Joseph.

Well, it's tired, isn't it, huh?

It's good horse you got there.

Yeah.

I don't do nothing, I was you.

We don't hurt nobody less than we got

to.

What's on your mind?

Maybe we tired for walking, huh?

Maybe we want to ride in the wagons.

I don't have any wagons.

You got three wagons.

Big fat ones.

Those wagons belong to some settlers.

There's nothing worth anything inside them.

Senor, you don't take good look at us.

What we got?

Nothing.

You got more.

Don't say on them.

Hawks.

Hawkies?

You are the board?

You fly?

Hey, senor, you can fly with us, huh?

Maybe we built a big nest in the

wagons.

Life is 40 fun, no?

I am most happy on board.

You know what make me sad?

What?

When I got to kill somebody.

Don't make me sad, senor.

Vamanos!

Palm, sit down, Brother Raleigh.

Let me fix the another cup of coffee.

Hawk should have been back by now.

He will be back.

Yeah.

I just get jumpy after dark.

Darkness is the restful gift of God, Brother

Raleigh.

You should not feel it dark, Brother Raleigh.

Oh, it ain't the dark I'm afraid of.

It's what's moving around in it.

You know, it's funny, I could work a

thousand feet down in a tunnel with no

more light than a match, but when I

get out in the open, it's just...

someone's coming.

Brother Hawks?

It is.

He ain't alone.

Raleigh!

It's me, Hawks!

I'm glad he's back.

V has brought guests.

How nice.

What I tell you, Hawks, I say your

friend's going to be glad for it to

see us, huh?

Yeah, that's what you said.

Welcome, friends.

May we offer thee some coffee?

Buenas noches, se�or.

Buenas noches, se�or.

Ah, buena noches, buena noches.

Is the Indian?

Joseph, your manners.

What's that, Joe?

Uh...

Como se, uh...

What is your name?

Joseph.

Huh?

Joseph.

What is it?

Hey, you got the same name what I

got, huh?

Jose...

Jose Morales.

He got the same name.

You better tell them, Hawks.

Paco.

Hawks.

We're in real trouble, Raleigh.

How much trouble?

Ain't...

No trouble?

No trouble?

We just going to take their wagons, that's

all.

All right.

Roberts!

You better keep still, Viejo.

We don't want to hurt nobody, huh?

We won't be happy fondly, huh?

This is your fault, Hawks.

I told you before that if we didn't...

Why don't I tell you, Viejo?

Please, we won't give thee any trouble.

That is good.

Then we get along, huh?

You ain't...

Right!

Tomas.

Look at the wagons, huh?

I tell you what we're going to do.

You don't give us no trouble.

We ride along two, three, maybe days.

Then you get out of the wagons and

you got to walk.

Well, we got to have time for the

sell of the wagons.

There ain't nothing in them wagons.

You want me to hit you, Viejo?

Huh?

You can't turn these people loose afoot when

the Mescalero's looking for scalps.

I don't see no Mescalero!

Look!

You kill him pretty bad, patroncito.

For alleys...

I'm going to see that you get strung

up for this.

I don't know.

Maybe the way I look, but nobody will

never believe me when I'm telling them.

Don't give me no trouble.

For alleys...

I'm going to get my hands on a

gun.

I'm a little faster than Raleigh was.

We don't worry about that little town come,

huh?

Show thy courage, wife, in the presence of

thine enemies.

Hawks, you got to save my goods.

Don't I know you?

Sure, stand up.

I look for you plenty hard a long

time.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Alleys, we want to bury this man.

Don't worry about the money.

Don't go nowhere.

Maybe you're going to have to bury two

of them, huh?

You're going to take my goods.

I can't stop you.

What's your name?

His name's Roke.

Roke, huh?

You still pretty good with a knife?

Why, I ain't used a knife in the...

Drink the onions.

Yeah.

That's right.

Thirty years.

Behar!

Behar?

That's San Antonio, ain't it?

That's where the Alamo is.

Ti el Alamo.

People, I'm going to tell you a funny

story.

I ain't never told a story for it,

because I don't got no end for it.

Now I got the end for it.

No!

What are you getting at, Morales?

I told you, it's going to be a

funny story.

About Behar.

You were not at the Alamo, was he?

I was with Santana.

Me, Jose Morales.

The great Major Army.

I have plenty time for it to think

about this Alfa Behar.

I do a lot of talking.

I ask a lot of questions.

Look, I want you to listen good to

this story.

You call me the liar, I'm going to

cut you open from the top of your

head of your boot.

There were 7,000 men in the fields.

185,100 thick walls.

With a long rifle.

We was tired.

The long march to the River Bravo, through

the land of the enemy, where all the

men were torn against us.

But we marched from Mexico.

The men from Chihuahua, Senora, Sinaloa, Michic�n, until

we come to Behar, where Travis waits in

Alamo.

Madre m�os, for 10, 12 days I've never

seen such fights.

Men against the stone wall with long rifles.

But Santana say, in no quarter are we

going to win him.

Your last night, Travis, he tell his men

they're going to stay, they're going to die.

But Alamo, she must hold.

It is their choice.

For one man, he want to live.

That man, he go over the wall, as

the regiment from Guadalajara attack.

There is much noise, much fight.

He has but one man among many in

the field of the battles.

So Sorrento Morales, he meet that man who

claim to be the straggler from the battalion

from Guadalajara in the night of Behar.

Oh, he speak the Spanish well.

He's shaking with a fever, or maybe with

a fear.

But Morales, he a man with a heart

like a mountain.

My food is his food.

My fire is fire.

First, Morales think he a disorder from some

regiment.

Oh, he want to get away too fast.

He ask the questions with a knife.

Oh.

I don't never forget that face.

I've been looking for you for a long

time.

Plenty long time.

This one, Jose?

You are sure?

You're lying.

Nobody ran at the Alamo.

You going to cut him back, Hefe?

I don't know.

I said you're lying.

They all stayed and died to the last

man.

To the last man, yes, but not this

man.

Roke, tell him you got that much decency

about you.

What do you mean, decency?

Well, you're an American.

Are you going to stand there and let

him smear filth on the Alamo?

Is that what you think?

That if what he says is true, I'm

some kind of filth?

But they all stayed and died.

They didn't run.

Then if somebody took Travis's offer, they was

filth.

Oh, you don't know what you're talking about.

Nobody else does.

Why should men die just to make Bill

Travis a hero?

I can't believe this.

Then you're a fool just like all the

rest.

What if ten men went over?

Fifty, a hundred.

Would they all be traitors too?

Shut up!

No.

Now you listen to me.

I'm going to tell you something.

Maybe Bill Travis wanted to stay.

Some men just got to be heroes alive

or dead.

But they all didn't want to die.

There were 7,000 Mexicans out there.

They couldn't get through them and they knew

it.

I could speak Spanish and I could make

it.

Roke, if you don't shut up, Roke...

You shut up, Aukies.

I want to hear the story.

You know what they said to me?

They said, Roke, you're a lucky dog.

Roke, teach me Spanish.

Roke, I want to go with you.

Yeah, they wanted to go with me.

They didn't think I was doing no wrong.

I never knew a traitor yet that wouldn't

try to justify himself.

I think you talk pretty big, Aukies.

I wonder how big you talk, Santa.

I ain't gonna hide on the wall.

I'll tell you one thing, Senor.

I wouldn't have turned my tail and run.

See, maybe no.

But I tell you, you be dead.

And dead men don't do nobody no good.

Yeah, they wanted to go with me.

The fools.

And you don't know nothing neither.

Because sometimes dead men do plenty of good.

For themselves.

Brother Hawks, Brother Roke is an old man.

They should not hold the past against him.

Mr. Oliver, I was just a little kid

when Colonel Travis, Jim Bowie, and Dave Crockett

and the rest of them got killed at

the Alamo.

But believe me, if there ever any heroes,

it was them.

You gonna cut him up now, Jose?

Honey, wait.

Well, it's something to do.

See, you caught me, I caught him as

fair, no?

You're not gonna hurt him.

Are you, Brother Morales?

And muchacho.

Maybe you're right, huh?

Maybe he don't run.

He stay behind a big wall and put

the bullet in O'Morales' head, huh?

So why, Trey caught his neck for a

bullet in the head, huh?

Maybe it's good thing you did run.

I didn't run.

I had a choice and I took it.

You're an old soldier, you ought to know.

I've been a soldier all my life.

I fought with Napoleon in Russia.

Don't tell me about soldiers.

Quit talking about it, Roke.

You did it and that's bad enough, so

don't try to make it right.

Yeah.

I quit trying a long time ago.

What are your plans, Morales?

I told you we ride along two, three

days.

Then you get wagons or feet, huh?

If he takes our wagons, if he hinders

the work of God.

Oh, no.

No.

Charity is the work of God.

Me and my friends, look at us.

We are poor.

We need charity.

So we take three wagons full of charity,

huh?

The law's gonna catch up with you for

this.

She ain't caused me that.

Oh, and just stealing the wagon is hard

work.

I think I go to sleep.

But I think I sleep better when you

wrap up in the rope, huh?

Is it all right for you, Se�or?

You got the guns.

See, we got the guns.

Buenos noches.

Hey, Ojis, don't you forget now we got

the guns.

On the side, we got your friends back

there, huh?

I sent Carlos and Tom�s up ahead in

that dry arroyo where that old stage wagon

station is.

You know that place?

Yeah, I know where it is.

By golly, I told him don't come back

without the meat.

We're gonna have meat for a night, huh?

Maybe somebody borrowed one, huh?

Hey, Ojis.

You take good care of my wagon now,

huh?

You ain't got it yet.

What, you mean I ain't got it yet?

You follow, Ojis.

Let's go.

Come on, vamos.

Come on, vamos.

Let's

go now.

Come on, boys.

Aah!

Hey, Carlos.

What are you doing?

He's dead, Morales.

I can see that.

Mescaleros.

Maybe he lose them, huh?

You know better than that.

We better get out of here pretty quick.

Wait a minute.

Aren't you gonna bury this man?

Why are you always worried about burying people?

Get out of the wagon.

Go on, move.

Come on, boy.

We better get out of here.

We better now.

Go on.

Hey, walk about there.

We're gonna have to move now.

Aah!

Let's go.

Come on.

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Come on, Joey.

There's gonna be, son.

Must we fear them?

We've done them no wrong.

You don't have to be afraid, but if

you don't mind, I'm gonna worry, son.

Come on.

Come on, hurry up.

Come on, move.

You two are.

You're gonna need all the help you can

get.

Give us our guns.

I suppose they ain't got much pride.

You don't have any scalp, you don't give

us those guns.

Get over there!

Rock!

Well, say, here they come.

Yeah!

Oh, he's acting like a fool.

Aah!

Come on.

You Paco, you're pretty good with a knife,

huh?

What's the best R.F.T. I ever

knew?

R.L.A.'s give us our guns.

Colonel Sosa, you're acting like a raw recruit,

not just us guns.

You lot go and give your guns, you're

gonna take my wagons.

Well, I don't give you the gun.

The Mascalero's gonna take them.

It was the most bad thing when I

was born.

I was not a bull or a son

of a baby.

Oliver.

I will not use it.

You better get started if you want to

get out of here.

Surely he knows I cannot, friend.

Do you have any ideas what the Mascaleros

do to women captives?

Oh, let him alone.

What?

He can believe in what he wants to

believe in.

What would you know about that, Roke?

I got a good memory.

You mean like climbing walls?

The Society of Friends sent my wife and

me here to work for the Indians, and

you are killing the very people we came

here to help.

I cannot permit this to continue.

You got a better idea?

Of course.

Let me approach them in the spirit of

Christian Brotherhood as their friend.

Watch it!

Aaron, please!

We got him on the run.

Give me some more shells.

They'll be back.

Surely they'll be back.

I think they want my wagons.

Shh!

They're centered for more

You sure you don't have any more ammunition?

That wagon of yours? No.

And we didn't have. Much ammunition at.

The Alamo. Neither.

What's the matter? Hogs get nervous.

Don't like the idea of dying.

If we can make a run for it.

Yeah, sure.

Two or three hour head start, we can make it.

Or otherwise we stay here and hope we might pray.

I wouldn't be surprised or reason with them.

I've been reasoning with. Them the only way they.

Understand friend Roque.

They, of all men, should know best the evils of violence.

I beg all of the Let me go to them in love.

Let me tell them that we have no wish to harm them.

They are children of God. Same as me.

Aaron. Perhaps they know better.

The Indians are savages.

Only because they are treated as savages.

I do not lose.

I believe the patients the moment they are tested.

You just stay right in here, Oliver.

You go out there with your ideas.

They will die with you.

God's love for a man will never die.

That is my big idea.

You don't trust nobody?

Carson Thomas is going to bring this to me.

But I

said I need my medical care for this.

I'll get it for you. Right.

Here he goes.

Morales, can you hear me?

They're going to dig that bullet out.

I bet you. Yeah, once.

You bet. My wagon.

You know, I heard that.

I'll bet you. Anyway.

No one else must die. Brother.

I wouldn't be understood in my beliefs if I permitted it.

Nothing you can do about it,

James.

Let me talk with me.

All right.

Come back,

Freddie.

Take this, please.

You'll feel better.

That everything is dead.

Why should I feel better?

For Joseph's sake?

Oh, Juice, Baby, baby.

Son of my father

will go home to

Will not take the No.

Although mother lives.

It was a mistake, wasn't it?

We shouldn't have come.

They told us we shouldn't.

Aaron was wrong.

Death is stronger than love.

We were all wrong.

How can we save patients?

Everything must be given a chance to succeed.

No, Aaron.

This heart was full of love for them.

And the good doctor.

How could they kill him?

Which has to have Mr.

Hobbs? Not much. Unless somebody finds.

They aren't so many of them.

No, but there will be.

By tomorrow morning, they're going to have more help.

And they need.

We can't stop,

Doctor, After the next charge, we're going to be out of ammunition

and we'll have to start throwing rocks

at them.

All this.

You don't look very happy now.

I think you going like 40.

We stuck behind the wall.

All right, can

but. You know, tell the truth as

it don't seem much different to me either.

After 30 years,

we're all soldiers.

We went through the mill. See?

She's trying to sell pretty good, you know

what you think a?

I don't know.

I don't want to live.

Yeah.

Good place for a day.

I a guy here.

Mr. Tomorrow's.

Perfect.

You don't got to be free.

Don't want anything to happen to my mother at all.

You've got the same name.

What I got you.

Don't worry about him.

You worry about his mother. Him?

What can I be like?

I think he's a good man.

You got a lot to learn, boy.

Oh, he want to do something nice about somebody.

Don't stop.

But I cannot understand why the Indians wanted to kill my father.

He was their friend. See?

You were a friend.

Frankly, only funny people

become colorful, funny place

like holiday

and it was to your wife's.

So then let's give a little.

Yes, Mother daughter ticket.

Pull it out.

They don't think that ties steal their wagon.

They don't worry about that.

Put our funny no.

You'll go back to your mother

are going to leave

You've got a long life to live

You gonna live where my name holds them or else

I go on for

Morales.

Why did you tell him that?

We've got to get him out of here.

There's no way. I'll keep you pretty smart.

You know what I say?

What do you mean, Mr. Morales?

Some people, they do pretty good.

Others they don't do so good.

Some people get what they want when they live in this world.

They don't get nothing.

Oh, they don't get enough.

What do you don't want much

food?

All these kilos, you know, these

Maybe once in a while.

You don't like them.

No matter what you do in this war, you go out the same way.

You come here, you come, you go.

What happened in between it?

Pretty good place.

I got some bullets.

This walls.

I think I stay here.

You can't hold them back till Alamo.

Got to go.

You figure to understand her alone?

What do you expect him to do? Go on a buggy ride.

Shut up like he is. I go with you.

That I don't mean it better.

I stay here. Didn't die. And I know roll.

Is it true? Mr. Fox?

Can you get my mother out of here?

Joey,

we can get your mother out of here.

Doctor Stern. I'll drive.

You don't know the way broke me ALL No, I know, you know, but I got to go.

You got to know.

They Ha ha ha

ha ha.

Here we go, sir.

Got guy

like this, don't you, rock?

You bet.

It's the best laugh I had near it.

Mr.. I wish you were 30 years younger.

So do I.

Brother Morales is a noble thing, The offers.

But we cannot let you do it.

You and you are to forgive me.

You don't got no choice.

You don't go to a pretty good man.

Die out there for nothing is not right in my diaphragm.

I think this is brave. Is my father.

I do not want to leave the.

You got the same man.

What I long

we you do something.

Get out of.

All right, Joy. Let's go.

Put him up. Duck

or Alice, your little short of these, maybe you can use it.

Let's

go, Rock.

I ain't go.

I know. That's your.

What,

Parks?

I ain't had a friend in 30 years.

Everybody.

I'm looking down on me just like you did

Mr. and Mrs. Oliver, though they.

They treated me like a man.

So it was a

you know, sometimes a man has

just one minute in his life to make a decision

that makes it worthwhile or ruins it completely.

What happens after that don't matter at all whether he's alive or dead.

I was in Texas from France just one month

when Travis went into the Alamo.

I didn't have no home.

I lived in a tent.

Everybody else had.

Homes and.

Something worth dying for.

Now, I ask you, Hawkes,

would you be willing to die for a hunk of canvas?

Five foot, maybe.

But hey, worth dying for.

Everybody's got to have something that's worth dying for

all over. Had it.

And now at left,

Jose and me, we've got to

Oliver and his mission.

And I'm going to see to it that he gets it.

I go.

Oh, Hawkes,

You want to know.

The real reason why I'm staying?

Yeah, I'm going to give you a taste of what I've been going on for 30 years.

I'm going to make you go over the wall

and there

you know what I think?

I think he's mad.

I think you make Earl

you feel like this when you wait on the wall for us.

Very high. Maybe a little worse.

You know, when you're young, you think you got a lot to live for. So

when you grow old,

we'll have a drink, huh?

Oh, yeah.

You just stay right here for a minute,

or you think I go where?

You just stay here Anyway.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Think you.

I don't care what they say about you wrote to me.

You're always going to be here all right?

Yeah.

You know,

I can tell you all, soldier, you were there.

I've been trying to get back in the Alamo

for 30 years.
