Original subtitles

Get us some rope. We just found us a guide.

One more surprise from you, and this goes off.

Walking they don't lead nowhere, any?

If I get through the other side, it means we lost them.

No consolation to you, but I'm sorry that I didn't this way.

Andy!

We don't have any choice, May.

Calvin!

And you can take all the money.

All you gotta do is give him the bullet he was gonna give you.

He's the one, May.

Shut up!

My boy and my little girl will grow up in the father's land.

And in the eyes of a woman met for me,

I had a dream where the sun goes down.

The Willamette Valley's calling me,

'cause I'm Oregon Bound.

Oh, I'm Oregon Bound.

Yes, I'm Oregon Bound.

I'm Oregon Bound.

Come on.

Keep your eyes off yourself.

What's the matter, Timmy?

You sweet on your sister?

Well, looks like we made the while home, eh?

Yeah, we made it all right. It's dry.

Look, I thought you were supposed to know your way around out here.

You leave him alone and get away, my boy!

You're a big man. It's down for the army.

Looks like our last chance.

Didn't turn out too good, Russ.

Somebody out there!

All I'm saying, Pa, is I could have been back by now.

Pa, I don't know what he's talking about.

Luther's back there at the train, screaming at him,

driving everybody crazy.

And here you are, with your dad.

Your father, out here alone in the wilderness.

Well, I reckon that is a blessing, Pa.

Mm-hmm.

But that's just a problem. It's weak.

Now, see, I was thinking on scouting this land myself,

finding the water myself, and bringing it back.

All alone, huh?

You figure you're a man just because you growed that thing on your upper lip.

Well, don't take no offense, Pa. I do enjoy your company.

Well, I'm sorry to be tagging along.

You ain't a one-man army just yet.

I want to tell you something.

What?

We get back to the wagon train once you shave that thing off.

Looks like one of them may have outlawed.

Well, I kind of like it.

And I want to tell you something else.

There's water up ahead.

Well, I knowed it all along.

Oh, you did? Are you sure?

That's right.

Yeah, there she is.

There's no water.

Looks like you found the wrong hole.

Just like us.

Uh, Danny, Danny, hold it.

If we can help you, we'd be glad to.

Get back on your horse, son.

Pa, can't you see this man's hurt here?

He said get back on your horse.

Throw your pistol down to the boy kids.

Put your left hand.

Get yourself down.

Silver, check their water and packs.

Jim, cover the boy.

You from a train?

No pack animals?

Stop playing, mister.

We're not playing.

Where's your train?

Oh, there's a train.

No way's back, but they're heading this way.

Canteens are full of water, food in the bank.

What's your name?

Thorpe.

If you have any questions, you might as well save them.

'Cause your own eyes ought to know what's going on here.

And we ran into a little bit of trouble.

But we're not gonna stamp anybody interfering with what we aim to do.

Is that clear?

That's clear.

Jack's gone!

At least he's made it through.

He'll bury him.

And then you're gonna guide us to that next water hole you had in mind.

Me guide you?

Go to this country just like you, mister.

Yeah.

And why were you riding out ahead of that train you mentioned?

Looking for water, same as you.

That's some group you got.

Sending out a green horn, a wet-nosed kid?

I ain't no wet-nosed kid, my pa's a captain.

Get us some rope.

We just found us a guide.

If I was staying on my horse, Paul, we might have had a chance.

And nobody will land just to relax. This Korean getting very far.

I think you two... think you two better shut up.

That's telling him, Timothy.

Sorry it turned out this way.

We're out of luck.

The only kind Jack ever had.

Well, we better get moving.

Bring up the horses, Tim.

Go up on the...

We're bringing up the rear with your boy to make sure you behave.

You get on that horse, though.

You know I'll kill first if you don't.

Silver!

Silver!

Well, in the end, it's quite a problem, son.

Can't have you going along with us.

It's trouble enough keeping an eye on your pa.

And we can't chance your return into that way.

You just gonna leave me tied up out here?

I wouldn't leave you. That'd help us.

But you gotta understand one thing.

No turning back for us, Andrew.

All of us, myself, a party.

We gotta go on.

Like we're riding a greased rail, you might say.

Bet your dad's been on that same road during his lifetime.

What he started he had to finish.

Maybe.

I realize it's no consolation to you.

But I'm sorry it had to end this way.

Andy!

Andy! Andy!

Andy!

Don't pull it! It's the lever!

Get him up, Jedi.

You're dead.

Have any other children?

You do, don't you, Thorpe?

Lucky man, Thorpe.

Your mind's gone.

I lost my only son in the impression of 42.

I was working on the railroad.

My wife went a year later.

You're a liar.

The only thing you done in 42 is take gold from dead man's teeth.

And you never had your own boy.

All right. All right.

Never had a wife or kids.

Been living outside the law since I was 16.

You satisfied?

I accept you hating like this.

But if you lead us to water

and put us on the right track,

I give you my word that...

I give you my word that will let you go.

You'll be free to go back to your family, Thorpe.

Just remember what I said about myself.

You try anything,

and I'll kill you.

You're all gonna get down.

That mile.

Holy...

You just keep hating me like that,

and I'll keep you living.

All right. Let's go. We're moving.

He knew there wouldn't be water here.

The man's crazy.

You don't care what happens to him.

Is that true, Thorpe? You knew?

Could you dry up just like waterholes?

The man we buried back there, Jack Sintz,

he said there'd be plenty of water in these hills.

Well, let's kill him now. We don't need no guide.

Shut up.

And we're moving south into Mexico.

There better be water further on.

Nope. South's bad.

That's what I hear, isn't it?

Worse than this?

Oh, much worse than this. Badlands, flats.

But he's just trying to scare us.

Yeah. Everyone.

We'd best get something straight, Thorpe.

See, none of us got a thing to lose.

We skipped from a wagon train with a lot of money,

and we intend getting into Mexico with that

and our skin's in one piece.

And if we don't get where we want to go,

neither do you.

Guardian Angel must have been watching over you real close, boy.

Who are you?

Judy Price, scout.

Who are you?

Andrew Thorpe, sir.

They shot me and they took him, Paul.

Who shot you?

I don't know.

There's three, no, there's four men.

One of them died over there, and they had two women with them.

Which one died, Andy? Tell me.

Do you have a train, Andy?

Don't pace out on me. Don't pace out on me again.

If you do, they'll strangle me up, boy. You can never save me.

Andy, who shot you?

Huh?

Where's that?

Just slow down a bit, he'll tell you.

Luther! Luther!

It wasn't us man, he helped me.

All right, mister. Oh, you and apology, you considered delivery.

Easy.

Take it away.

All right.

Well, does it hurt when we get shot?

Well, I'll tell you the truth, William.

I don't remember getting shot at all.

Where's that paw, Andy?

They gonna shoot paw, too?

Now, you know paw as well as I do, don't you?

Ain't nobody gonna shoot him.

Yeah, but you said there's five of them.

Shut up, William.

My paw's gonna be just fine.

Well, I know that. I just--

He's just getting ready to go get some fire with you, wasn't he?

Go on.

Go ahead, William.

And Rachel, you can start supper.

I'll go help William.

We should all watch out for each other more carefully.

Margaret.

I'm scared.

Well, you had a narrow escape.

Well, it's not what I mean.

If those men shot me, God knows what they're gonna do to Paul.

Is there anything we can do to help him?

Not right away, no.

Then I suggest we tend to our own business.

You should rest, and I have things to do.

Is that all you got to say about it?

What do you want, tears?

I don't know what I want, Margaret.

Don't you realize I'm in a panic every time your father goes off?

I have a vivid imagination, you know.

I don't need you to impress me with the danger he's in.

I ain't trying to do that to you, Margaret.

But honestly, why are you getting so upset at me about it?

Because you're looking to me for consolation, and I can't give it to you.

Look, there are many nights I have to go to my tent and live with my fears.

And you're gonna have to do the same.

Dan.

I'm sorry.

You know, sometimes it don't hurt to feel.

Here you are consuming me now.

Thanks, Andy.

This is the biggest I can find.

Thanks.

I'll be a lump of ice before morning.

Well, I'd be glad to help you start out, darling.

What'd you say?

He sure doesn't want that sister of yours, don't he?

You know, one of these days he's gonna take you out, and he's gonna have her.

Over my dead body.

Now, why don't you start thinking and planning about finding water?

We only have a day's ration left, which means you only have a day left.

Lest we find more water.

Look at him, sitting there like he's some god or something.

Silver.

No more evil.

See, I'm not afraid of you when you don't judge me.

When we get to Mexico, you and I--

When you get to Mexico, you're gonna be exactly what you are now, mister.

It goes for the rest of you.

Russia!

We're gonna buy a big ranch, and we're all gonna be somebody, all of us.

You gonna buy a ranch?

I'll give you one day across that border, they know who you are.

You're gonna be branded.

How do you know?

You're nothing but a dirt farmer bound for Oregon.

Who's in Mexico during the war?

I know them people.

Live with them.

Roll up in one of them big cities.

They take a lot of money.

How about 30,000?

30,000, huh?

Oh, but damn it, when are you gonna learn to keep that tongue in your head?

You get 30,000, fine.

You could become a leading citizen.

Not for long.

What are you talking about?

30,000 will last forever.

You mean five of you?

Everything cost in double?

This talk's stupid.

We know what we're gonna do with that money when we get to Mexico.

Let's turn in everybody.

While everything costs double.

Damn.

I got a right to here, I want to hear.

You got a right to here.

See, they'll squeeze you.

I know them people.

They'll squeeze you.

'Cause they figure you just go back and steal something again anytime you want to.

Won't be no more stealing.

No more.

You never be done with that.

Jack said we'd never have to steal again.

Now if what we've done can at least get us that, then we better just give it up right now.

All right, and you go to Mexico.

But you're gonna go broke.

And you're women.

You know, we work in them cantinas.

Well, Connie, you'll feel right at home there, won't you?

That's a nice bit of advice, Thorpe, about Mexico.

You trying to tell us you have our welfare in mind?

I'm trying to tell you, I don't care if you drop dead.

You just look down for me and my family.

And there's water at the end of the curve.

What's the cut?

See, it's called a cut.

It's a pass through them hills west of here.

California is west.

Not Mexico.

Miss Jack wanted to go to Mexico.

Don't make no difference to me.

Without Jack, you mean?

I don't need to be dead.

Just there.

You know, I never was really sold on Mexico.

First thing was J.D. Price and any others that might be tracking.

That's just what they'd expect.

California, got a lot more choices.

California is all right with me if it's all right with you, Russell.

California it isn't.

Looks like to me they holed up here for a while.

These horses, I can't figure.

Yeah.

I wonder why they didn't keep the other two to spell them.

I don't know. I can't figure it out.

Seems kind of funny to me, I understand.

If you two stop gabbing and let's move, you sound like a couple of old women.

Well, there it is.

This is where it starts, huh?

According to Moscow, it starts here, it slices all the way through to the southwest.

That's the cut.

That shore, the shore ain't riding country.

Oh, it'll be so slow to a crawl up there.

Yeah, it'll be the same, pretty big trail on us though.

Oh, I'll throw up, I'll be right behind you.

All right, sir.

Pass this over, less than a mile.

That means Paul's leading them away from the water.

Well, I'd say he's playing a mighty dangerous game then.

I'll be right back.

Oh, my leg, my leg.

You did it on purpose.

What the hell are you talking about? What do you want me to do? Look at this.

Put it away, silver.

All I can do is hang on.

The rest of you didn't do no better, did you?

I know we got ourselves a problem, catching up with them horses.

Ain't gonna do you no good.

Halfway through there, you'd have dropped the horses anyway.

You never said we'd have to leave the horses.

Look, my scout told me and you can see for yourselves.

You get through there, you can't use horses.

We can't go anywhere without horses.

Ma'am, once you get through that cup, there'll be settlements.

You can buy horses.

You got money, ain't you?

Let's gather up what we can.

I'll take the water.

Somebody help him.

It's my leg, Russ.

I think I broke it.

Splint's the best we can do, Tim.

Look.

One more surprise from you.

And this goes off.

You know I'm past getting scared.

Now what you gonna do?

Shoot me and die of thirst?

We're moving.

Hurry up, let's move.

We're not stopping tonight.

That should put us through the past by noon tomorrow, right?

I wouldn't say so.

On the way that young fellow's dragging.

That's where they went, all right?

That don't make sense.

Ain't no passes up there.

That's what the suit called walking nay.

Needs God's slice.

The cut?

Yep.

That's crazy.

If we get through the other side, it means we lost him.

Walking nay don't lead nowhere, any.

Well, the engines say God put it there to show mad how foolish he was.

If your trained captain know about this, Greg,

I told him about it so I could rattlesnake some of the void.

He's leading them right in the cut, and they don't know it.

At least not yet they don't.

Yeah, but what about when they find out, Price?

How long it take to get through there?

Ben's.

Let's just hope he'll power keep her feet dragging.

Come on.

Listen.

It's like he wanted you out of thirst.

Where we're dragging.

Sorry. Stop in here. Hold it.

Tim's going to have to go along.

What are you talking about?

You gotta look out for ourselves, Connie.

Tim's throwing his dad in.

Well, he keeps stopping every ten minutes, Connie.

It's just no good.

But he's my brother.

Might as well get used to going alone, Tim.

What do you mean, Russ?

It means we're not going to sit here and die because you can't keep up.

It just ain't fair.

Well, why don't you stay with him, man?

Ain't the love of a sister beautiful.

Russ!

I thought you were my friend.

I looked up to you.

I can see that you have to go on.

But leave me with my fair share of money and water.

Fair enough.

You should have pulled that trigger when you had the chance.

I would have.

Uh, let's get moving.

Let's go, Thorpe.

I'll take care of it for you, Timothy.

I looked up to you, Jordan.

I looked up to you, my friend.

Connie!

Did you see him?

Just some of the horses. Some spooked him.

Yeah, or some one.

He's squeezing this crowd hard, and now he's got him walking.

Vera, Sophie, don't squeeze him too hard.

What are we gonna get through this?

Soon enough, not the way we were, dragon.

This evening a Jordan fellow was smart.

We left them women behind with Tim.

You really gotta be crazy.

Crazy?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I forgot you were sweet on that little dark one.

Ain't it sweet on you?

Nobody.

Yeah, it's more like it.

See, when it all boils down to it,

you gotta think about yourself. Ain't that right?

That's right.

Well, I'm gonna tell you something.

I have a border that Jordan's carrying.

I think it'll last more than a couple hours

the way he's dividing it up.

They see it'll be real simple.

If it was just twixt you and me, we'd stay alive.

No, that ain't gonna work, mister.

You see, I'm with Jordan.

Not with you.

All right.

Russ!

I have to stop for a bit. Russ!

That's all she's been to.

We don't have any choice, me.

Not if we want to live.

I agree with you.

I can't help you, me.

I do agree with you.

He's an animal, that's all.

My idea sound any better to you now?

Just shut up, mister.

That's the way you want it.

I sure would hate to have a man using me.

What are you talking about?

Jordan?

Using you?

To him, you're just a gun.

When a gun runs out of bullets,

there ain't much use done, boys.

Moving on, honey.

No.

You can't, Russ.

Look, each time we stop for you,

the trackers will be getting closer.

You'd rather have her?

They can keep up.

That's 'cause she's hard.

You like your woman hard, Russ?

I'd be much better for you.

She just wants to make sure you get her out of here.

That's all.

I'm younger,

and when I'm fixed up, I'm a lot prettier.

You came into the place I worked.

It was you who taught me and Tim to come in with you.

Sing that song you sang in a saloon.

I don't, Russ.

You said you were hard.

You said that she's younger.

A lot prettier.

You want to come along?

All right.

You sing that song, and you can come along.

Give me some water, and I'll sing it for you.

Give me a few minutes, and I'll sing it for you, Russ.

Just a few minutes.

Zova! Zova!

Do you see that?

I just abused her.

You want me?

You always wanted me!

I'm sorry, Connie.

I've got to start taking care of myself.

That's smart.

Well, it won't be long before we're dumping that other woman.

And then, Mr. Thorpe,

I'll be looking for that time and place you mentioned.

I consider that smart.

Let's go.

Now, just wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

You see that?

You ain't never going to get a better chance than that.

See?

One more hour.

We're going to be through here.

Don't worry about these guns.

See?

See there, like I said.

That's a blind rock.

You got him.

See that?

Yeah.

I'll be right back.

Georgia!

Don't move.

And keep your hands where I can see them.

Now, press up the water.

And the bags, please.

How much of this money and water would satisfy you, Zova?

All of it.

All of it, big man.

Oh?

Oh, well, I'll just take it out of your hide then.

That's what I'll do.

Both of you.

No rest. No more.

Just let us loan that a little.

I owe you one, Thorpe.

The price?

Listen, there's just two of us left.

You're the only one that ever counted as far as I was concerned.

We'll make it.

We'll get through.

There's just two of us.

And we started out far, far.

We'll make it.

We'll get through.

There's just two of us.

And we started out far.

And we started out five.

And he's got us down to two.

We get to the end of the pass.

You can stop worrying.

That's a promise.

He didn't kill you.

He didn't kill me either.

Can't see that.

That was a waste of good water anyway.

That the one that shot you?

No.

Part of the group, wasn't he?

You want to shoot him back?

He ain't worth the bullet, Luther.

I just want to find Paul, that's all.

Hey, Andrew.

How's it feel?

What's that?

Growing up.

It ain't something, Luther.

What's wrong?

What are you stopping for?

If you're trying something.

Why don't you try listening?

To death.

Why don't you hear that?

It's water.

Water.

Water.

Water.

He's under the rock.

He entered the path, he said.

He said he'd bring us to water.

And he entered the path.

We left him back there, May.

We left him.

He left him back there.

He left him.

One by one, we all went down, all in a row.

Connie, Tim, Jack, Sylvan.

And now? Now it's us.

He ain't got me.

SOB!

You're gonna die, SOB!

You're gonna die, SOB!

You missed, Jordan.

You're as bad as sure as you are a leader.

Leaders don't leave their people.

Not even an animal does that.

Jordan!

You missed again.

Come on.

You brave man.

Come on and get me.

May?

Found me the water.

Good cold water.

I ain't lying to you.

I wouldn't come in here to die.

I got water.

I don't believe you.

All right.

You can try and find it by yourself.

It'll take you about a week.

Pics and shovels.

You expect a deal now?

Not with you, Jordan.

I wanted you.

You're all mine now.

May?

Hold it.

Hold it.

Now just listen to me.

I can give you water.

And you can take all the money.

You go your way, I'll go mine.

Water and money.

All you got to do is give him the bullet he was going to give you.

You're trying that game with the wrong woman, Thor.

May's going to be my wife.

She's going to die a thirst or worse.

Unless you turn the gun on him.

Jack was my friend.

You kept me awake a lot of nights thinking about you.

I thought I should tell you that, May.

The water and all the money.

He'd do the same thing if he had the chance.

Don't listen to him, May.

Shoot him.

May, you saw what he'd done to Tim and Connie.

You saw him.

He was going to kill Silver.

Watch him.

May.

May.

You're just tired out.

I want to live for us, Thor.

We both do.

And we will.

He's the one, May.

Shoot him.

I believe what he said.

I believe you'd do it to me if you could.

May.

You know you can't kill me.

You know that.

I think I can.

You got what you wanted, didn't you, Thor?

I don't think you got the nerve to pull that trigger, May.

It's all over, ma'am.

It's all over.

You all right, Pa?

Who done up that bandage for you?

Margaret.

They should have liked Comanche.

Give me a bit of a look at you.

I want you to see me crying, Pa.

Ain't nothing wrong with it.

I'm crying.

With the help of God in this mountain land,

I have a dream where the sun goes down.

The Willamette Valley's calling me cause my origin bound.
