You want to have a nap? 101 00:08:22,294 --> 00:08:24,712 No, I want to hear it. 102 00:08:24,796 --> 00:08:28,674 I'm worried about Tom. It's getting dark. He should have been home. 103 00:08:28,758 --> 00:08:31,302 He's a strong boy. Don't worry about him. He can take care of himself. 104 00:08:31,386 --> 00:08:33,804 How old is the boy?

He's a good boy. 109 00:08:48,403 --> 00:08:51,947 Oh, he's the best. I couldn't love him any more if he was my own flesh and blood. 110 00:08:52,073 --> 00:08:56,911 And now you, Mrs. Stark. There isn't very much to tell about me. 111 00:08:57,037 --> 00:09:00,998 How did you meet? I was teaching school, and one day a pupil walked in. 112 00:09:01,082 --> 00:09:05,628 It was Willie. I couldn't have a grown man in the class, and Willie wanted to learn so badly, 113 00:09:05,712 --> 00:09:07,796 so I married him. 114 00:09:07,923 --> 00:09:11,300 Is that the only reason? Except that I loved him. 115 00:09:12,385 --> 00:09:14,595 Get the coffee, Lucy. 116 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,681 When did they fire you, Mrs. Stark? 117 00:09:17,766 --> 00:09:20,392 A couple of weeks ago. 118 00:09:20,477 --> 00:09:24,230 I'd been teaching a long time, and nobody ever said I wasn't all right. 119 00:09:24,314 --> 00:09:26,941 But I don't care. I don't want to teach in a schoolhouse... 120 00:09:27,025 --> 00:09:30,069 that they built just so somebody can steal some money. 121 00:09:30,153 --> 00:09:32,738 Willie doesn't want to be treasurer, either, 122 00:09:32,822 --> 00:09:35,908 if he has to associate with those dishonest people. 123 00:09:35,992 --> 00:09:39,036 I'm gonna run. They can't keep me from runnin'. 124 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,081 If you don't mind the truth, Mr. Stark, you haven't much of a chance. 125 00:09:42,165 --> 00:09:45,084 I'm gonna run. They're not gonna kick me around like I was dirt. 126 00:09:45,168 --> 00:09:48,629 I don't care if Willie loses, just so he gets the truth to the people. 127 00:09:48,713 --> 00:09:51,632 Isn't that true, Willie?

Willie Stark. 177 00:14:30,537 --> 00:14:35,749 Very convincing. Too convincing for my tastes. A lot of people like them. 178 00:14:35,833 --> 00:14:38,210 A lot of people are fools. 179 00:14:38,294 --> 00:14:41,588 Articles like that shouldn't be permitted. They only tend to incite people. 180 00:14:41,673 --> 00:14:46,635 - What are you afraid of? - I thought they were very good.

He thought he might change things some... 421 00:34:15,554 --> 00:34:18,973 for himself and for folks like him. 422 00:34:19,057 --> 00:34:22,518 Now, I'm not gonna lie to you.

Pillsbury is guilty. 713 00:53:56,150 --> 00:53:58,818 As attorney general of this state, it's my job to prosecute. 714 00:53:58,903 --> 00:54:02,155 Judge, you talk like Pillsbury was human. 715 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:04,157 He isn't.

Well, I fixed him. 718 00:54:10,164 --> 00:54:14,542 I'm not a bit interested in Pillsbury. It's something much bigger than that. 719 00:54:14,627 --> 00:54:16,419 Yes, it is. 720 00:54:19,173 --> 00:54:22,133 He's right, Judge. Can't you see that he's right? 721 00:54:22,217 --> 00:54:26,429 He's right because you want him to be right. You're afraid to admit you made a mistake. 722 00:54:26,513 --> 00:54:29,515 Do it now before it's too late. 723 00:54:32,353 --> 00:54:35,313 I'm offering my resignation as attorney general. 724 00:54:35,397 --> 00:54:39,400 You'll have it in writing by messenger in the morning, dated. 725 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:48,409 Took you a long time to make up your mind, Judge... a long time. 726 00:54:48,535 --> 00:54:52,580 What made you take such a long time?

That's up to Governor Stark. 1071 01:17:49,081 --> 01:17:52,709 He wanted another doctor, a specialist. I sent for one. 1072 01:17:52,793 --> 01:17:54,878 How bad is it really, Doc? 1073 01:17:54,962 --> 01:17:57,255 He's unconscious and paralyzed. 1074 01:18:00,593 --> 01:18:03,303 Has he got a chance?

I guess that's the reason. 1106 01:20:10,556 --> 01:20:12,640 Everybody loves him. 1107 01:20:12,725 --> 01:20:14,726 He wants to marry me. 1108 01:20:16,562 --> 01:20:19,522 Are you going to? Not now. It would hurt him. 1109 01:20:19,607 --> 01:20:22,609 A divorce would hurt his career. 1110 01:20:22,735 --> 01:20:25,820 "His career." Jack. 1111 01:20:25,905 --> 01:20:27,906 Jack, what are you going to do? 1112 01:20:27,990 --> 01:20:31,701 You can't leave him now.

Adam? 1117 01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:45,340 Well, you don't have to worry about him. If Adam finds out, 1118 01:20:45,424 --> 01:20:47,717 it'll be easy to prove that Stanton is no different than anyone else. 1119 01:20:47,801 --> 01:20:51,012 Just show him these. 1120 01:20:51,096 --> 01:20:54,724 Willie was right. Man is conceived in sin and born in corruption. 1121 01:20:54,808 --> 01:20:56,809 Even Judge Stanton. 1122 01:20:56,894 --> 01:21:01,689 Show them to him, Anne. Change the picture of the world that Adam has in his head. 1123 01:21:01,774 --> 01:21:04,317 Just like our picture of it has been changed. 1124 01:21:04,401 --> 01:21:07,320 Wipe out everything he's ever believed in. It'll be good for him. 1125 01:21:07,404 --> 01:21:10,865 There's no god but Willie Stark. I'm his prophet, and you're his... 1126 01:21:13,202 --> 01:21:16,996 Oh, Anne. Anne, I'm sorry.

And get some votes. 1137 01:21:53,993 --> 01:21:57,745 Oh, there's lots of ways to get votes. Yes, I know. 1138 01:21:57,830 --> 01:22:00,331 I won't stand for any interference. 1139 01:22:00,416 --> 01:22:02,792 I won't interfere. 1140 01:22:02,876 --> 01:22:05,253 I may fire you, but I won't interfere. 1141 01:22:05,337 --> 01:22:07,880 If that's a threat, you're wasting your time. 1142 01:22:08,007 --> 01:22:10,633 You know what I think of your administration. Yes, I know. 1143 01:22:10,718 --> 01:22:12,760 I'll tell you what. 1144 01:22:12,845 --> 01:22:15,263 You stay on your side of the fence; I'll stay on mine. 1145 01:22:15,347 --> 01:22:17,265 Is that a deal? 1146 01:22:22,187 --> 01:22:26,608 Now he had us all... me, Anne and Adam. 1147 01:22:26,692 --> 01:22:28,943 Now we all worked for him. 1148 01:22:31,238 --> 01:22:33,865 And so the eyes of the entire nation are now focused... 1149 01:22:33,949 --> 01:22:35,783 upon Governor Willie Stark, 1150 01:22:35,868 --> 01:22:38,828 an amazing phenomenon on the American political scene. 1151 01:22:38,912 --> 01:22:41,998 The whole state is filled with his accomplishments, 1152 01:22:42,082 --> 01:22:45,668 each one of them, of course, bearing his personal signature... 1153 01:22:45,753 --> 01:22:49,130 to make sure that no one will ever forget who gave them to the state. 1154 01:22:49,214 --> 01:22:52,091 This is the way the roads used to be. 1155 01:22:52,176 --> 01:22:55,303 But there are those who claim that they were adequate for the people's needs, 1156 01:22:55,387 --> 01:22:59,849 that you don't need a four- or six-lane highway for a horse and buggy. 1157 01:22:59,933 --> 01:23:02,393 When Stark boasts of his great school system, 1158 01:23:02,478 --> 01:23:05,063 his critics say, 1159 01:23:05,147 --> 01:23:08,524 "You can't go to school and work in the fields at the same time." 1160 01:23:08,609 --> 01:23:10,902 And they question the benefit of these projects, 1161 01:23:10,986 --> 01:23:14,197 charging that the need and the poverty of the people is as great as before. 1162 01:23:14,281 --> 01:23:18,493 Willie Stark has never forgotten the source of his power... 1163 01:23:18,577 --> 01:23:20,495 the people who supported him. 1164 01:23:20,579 --> 01:23:23,873 He still keeps his touch with these people of the back woods, 1165 01:23:23,957 --> 01:23:27,335 making periodic trips to such places as Kanoma City, 1166 01:23:27,419 --> 01:23:29,545 now famous as his birthplace. 1167 01:23:31,090 --> 01:23:34,133 For those who say that Willie Stark is a man of destiny, 1168 01:23:34,218 --> 01:23:37,512 there are others who claim that he is a man of evil, 1169 01:23:37,596 --> 01:23:41,182 a man who cares neither for the people or the state, 1170 01:23:41,266 --> 01:23:43,976 but only for his own personal power and ambition. 1171 01:23:44,061 --> 01:23:49,440 Obviously, these ambitions go far beyond the boundaries of the state. 1172 01:23:49,525 --> 01:23:53,111 Just how far? Only time will tell. 1173 01:23:53,195 --> 01:23:58,032 Meanwhile, he is here.
