[THUNDER RUMBLING]

DIANA: Taxi!

Taxi!

Trinity School, 91st Street
between Columbus and Amsterdam.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

I changed my mind.

Follow that Porsche.

Go on, go on.

Make the light.

I think they're pulling over.

Andre.

MAN: Your husband?

My daughter.

[DOOR OPENS]

Grace?

[DOOR CLOSES]

I thought you left to work
on your story.

I changed my reservation.
It's tomorrow.

Oh.

I thought maybe
you'd like to come.

You get to miss a day of school.

You never asked me to go
with you on a story before.

This one's special.

You know that, that series
I'm writing for Cosmo,

on families,
family tree articles.

Roots for Honkies. [CHUCKLES]

This one is about our family.

You know Grand-dad's brother
who went down to Louisiana,

and became some
kind of an outlaw.

I mean, it is fabulous.

There's got to be a story in it.

So, I thought that
since it involved you...

Yeah, okay.

Okay?

Okay, I'll go.

[DOOR SLAMS]

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

You know, you don't have to go,

if it doesn't appeal to you.

I'm not doing anything.

Honey, you know...

you can always talk to me.

GRACE: I know. [LAUGHS]

[GUITAR PLAYING]

MAN: [HUMMING]

Where can I get a boat
to Sullivan town?

-No boat to Sullivan town.
-Oh.

There must be
a road by now. [CHUCKLES]

No road.

No road?

Nope.

No town.

[LAUGHS]

No town?

Never was much of a town,
just an old supply store.

MAN: How're doing, Larry?

Officer, I'm Diana Sullivan,

I'm from Cosmopolitan Magazine

and I'm lookin for some
relatives of mine.

Joe Sullivan is my uncle.

Well, I'm sure one of you fine
gentlemen would be happy

to take Miss Sullivan down
the river to meet her kinfolk.

Man, I ain't goin' all the way
back there into that mess.

Why don't you go, Larry?

I don't want to get
my head blown off

by some old crazy Sullivan.

If you pardon
my sayin' so, ma'am.

They do that stuff?

Head blowing off and everything?

-MAN: [LAUGHS]
-LARRY: Well, now, miss, uh...

Uh, all the people back
in the Bayou,

mostly they're Cajun...

peaceful people.

So the stories are exaggerated.

Well, now, ma'am, uh,

the Sullivans are among the few
who aren't Cajun.

Uh, it's different.

Uh, hell, I guess I could say
they were a little, uh, shy.

[LAUGHTER]

Shy. What are you guys
talking about?

Well, ma'am, uh...

what I mean to say is, uh...

Uh, they're a little wild.

MAN: [LAUGHS]

Oh, yeah.

That's right. [LAUGHS]

Well, look, they're my family,

for better or for worse,

I'd like to see them if I can.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

[ENGINE REVVING]

LARRY: Come to, sir.
Come to for a moment, please, sir.

-Well, howdy, folks.
-Hello, there.

-Hi, there.
-How are you, Jake?

What do you got there, Jake?

What do you think?

Where are your traps, Jake?

Hey, I can't tell ya where I hid
my lucky traps, now, can I?

You know, someday those people
are going to kill you, Jake.

You won't think
that's so damn funny.

Big fuckin' deal.

[LAUGHS]

I kicked Gook's ass
in 'Nam

you think these hicks scare me?

Poacher.

You got to catch 'em red-handed
or ya can't take 'em in.

[ENGINE REVVING]

-Don't forget my present!
-DIANA: What? Oh!

DIANA: Calculance here.

♪ Louisiana

♪ Just about a mile
from Texacana ♪

♪ In them old...

♪ Cotton fields back home

[ENGINE REVVING]

Is this the Sullivan place?

Oh, no, ma'am.

That's another hour or so
down the Bayou.

Henry here, he'll take you.

DIANA: Why can't you take us?

Don't worry.

Henry know the way.

[ENGINE REVVING]

[WATER DRIPPING]

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

I hate to take people
like surprise this way.

You know, I hope they don't
think we're rude

not saying we're coming
or anything?

HENRY: They know you coming.

They do? How?

Look over there.

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

I don't see anything.

HENRY: You don't see them.

They see you.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

[CHICKEN CLUCKING]

GRACE: Should we take our stuff?

Oh, I don't think so.

You'll wait?

HENRY: You paid me for it.

Mrs. Sullivan?

Are you Mrs. Sullivan?

I just came to ask
a few questions.

I won't stay very long.

The IRS sendin' out some funny
agents this year.

DIANA: [LAUGHS]

I'm not from the IRS at all.

Really. I'm Diana Sullivan,

this is my daughter, Grace.

Joe Sullivan was my great uncle.

Really, he was.

Nobody gonna kick us off
this place!

No IRS,

no National Park whatever it is,

no Audubon Society.

DIANA: No, look, look, look.

Here, take it.

It's a picture of Uncle Joe
and my grandfather.

You a Yankee. There ain't no
Yankee Sullivans.

There are.

-There ain't. Joe told me.
-Well, look, if you would just

look at the picture.

Didn't Joe have a birth mark
on his right hand

that looked like a rabbit?

MRS. SULLIVAN: [SIGH]

Goat.

Give it here.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

The little one's Joe,

the big one's my
grandfather Michael.

What you want?

We wanted just to talk
about the family.

GRACE: [SNIFFS]

Mom, this isn't gonna, work.

This is ridiculous.

DIANA: What is her problem?

GRACE: Mother, she doesn't want
to talk to you.

You're making an ass out
of yourself.

Where you goin' so fast?

She's just doing this
to humor you.

Henry, you go on.

You pick 'em up
in a couple days.

Pauli, you go get
the--their suitcases.

GRACE: She's making
a fool of you.

She doesn't want to talk to us.

DIANA: Grace.

Look at this house.

Look at this house!
I don't want to stay here, Mom.

DIANA: Stop it!

Come on, come over here,
sit with me.

Come on.

Come on, Grace.

-Grace!
-Mom!

Come on.

[SIGH]

Wipe this off.

Chicken stuff.

It's my son, Pauli.

Joe's and mine.

Don't let him scare ya.

He ain't no together with us.

Oh, I'm sorry.

You're sorry.

God made him that way
and god sure ain't sorry.

He's your and Joe's son?

You seem so young
to have been Joe's wife.

I was and I am Joe's wife.

Took me as his second wife
when I was twelve years old.

It was after Jessie and the kids
burned up in the fire

back by the church there.

I don't see any church.

[LAUGHS]

Well, how in heaven could you?

It burned up! [LAUGHS]

The whole town burned up
twenty years ago.

[LAUGHTER]

You sure are an odd one.

Where you say you from?
Baltimore?

Oh, uh, New York.

That your girl?

DIANA: Yes.
Yes this is my Grace.

Don't talk much.

That's what you think.

Go away.

That one doesn't either.

-My daughter in-law, Candy.
-Hi.

Well, you certainly have
a lovely wife.

He ain't my wife.

TOMMY: [SCREAMING]

That's my baby boy, Tommy.

DIANA: Where's he?

In the tool shed.

-DIANA: Why is he screaming?
-TOMMY: [SCREAMING]

He can't get out.

DIANA: Why don't you help him?

I put him there. Why would I
help him get out?

TOMMY: Mama!

I'm hungry!

Let-let's go on inside.

What did your brother do?

Pauli's got a button missing.

Don't you understand that?

Now, Tommy's trouble.
You know what his trouble is?

Memory problem. He forgets
who's his daddy.

TOMMY: [SCREAMING]

[DOOR CLOSE]

[CLAPPING]

Make yourself to home.

GRACE: [SIGH]

DIANA: You know,
this is really fascinating work here.

My God.

It's like some...

combination of Grant Wood,

Grandma Moses and Salvador Dali.

Look at this!

It's Joe.

Oh, yes, of course.

You see, we had him
made that way.

-Lookin' right at us.
-Uh, huh.

So we can't forget him
and all he gives us.

Oh, it's very functional.

We like it.

[SIGH]

It's his place.

Not a day goes by we don't
give our thanks to Joe.

All we got is from him.

I said, it's his place.

He sit in it every day.

It's his.

May we help you?

Can't see as there's much
you can do.

DIANA: [SIGH]

Here is my place.

Looks good.

Bow your heads.

We thank you, Lord,
for this our food.

For our health.

And Joe, I know you're watchin'
these nice kinfolk

who come to see us today.

They say they're from Baltimore--

-New York.
-A Yankee's a Yankee

but we say welcome anyway.

-Amen.
-PAULI: Amen.

-Amen.
-Amen.

Amen.

[SNIFF]

GRACE: Hmm...

this is really good.

Turtle soup.

I had a turtle once. [CHUCKLES]

Ain't him.

PAULI: [LAUGHS]

[LAUGHTER]

GRACE: Oh, my God.

Oh my god! Look
at those two heads!

[CHUCKLES] Incredible.

-They're fighting!
-They're jumping!

They don't know which way to go!

DIANA: I gotta get this
on film.

-GRACE: It's weird!
-[CAMERA SHUTTER SOUND]

-Oh.
-Strange.

DIANA: Can you turn them
around this way?

It's so sad.

This is not exactly
Cosmopolitan--

I never saw nothin' like that

'till the oil companies come.

That's when it
all started happening.

[ENGINE REVVING]

TOMMY: Ma! Come out here!

-How bizarre.
-Uh, two heads!

Excuse me, very much.

See this?

It's the third time
this week.

They stole my crabs,
all my craw fish

and all but those stupid crabs.

[SIGH] What the hell
am I supposed to do, Ma?

They got them big boats

and they come at night.

What the hell am I supposed
to do against that?

You don't raise your voice
to your Momma, Mark Sullivan.

[SIGH] I'm sorry, Momma.

And about the poachers.
What you got to do

-is you gotta find that--
-On the way here today,

we met a man
with a boatload of crabs.

I think he's supposed to be
a poacher.

Who's this?

Kin, from Baltimore.

It's my big boy, Mark.

What kind of man was it?

He was big, um...

with a very husky voice.

-GRACE: His name was Jake.
-Jake, right.

But of course
you couldn't prove it.

MARK: It's him.

Outsider.

Minute he come around
there was trouble.

You can take care of that.

How?

You just think of what paw
would it done.

Then you do it.

DIANA: Uh, can't the police--

I think you should go on inside.

Somebody's soup gonna get cold.

We be along soon.

I understand.

All right, let's just sit down.

DIANA: Oh, she's got your jaw.

She's Irish.

-And then, there's Joe.

[WOMAN SINGS ON RADIO]

Do you mind if I ask you...

who this is?

My dead son.

Why is his...

[SIGHS]

He's a sinner.

Went to town.
That boy's dead to me.

Did you mean he's nearby?

-He's dead, that's all.
-You never see him?

He dug his own grave,
he can lie in it.

[SCOFFS] That's ridiculous.

That's the way it is.

You're with us
or you're against us.

He went against us.

But it--it's your son!

He needs your warmth
and support.

[SIGHS]

Oh, you city people.

You--you're all warm

like dishwater.

That don't do nobody, no good.

What do you mean?

I mean, you don't run
hot nor cold.

You should be one way
or the other, hot or cold,

that's all.

Feel this, Mark. Come here!

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

Pauli, come here.

[CAMERA FLICKS]

Wild!

[LAUGHS] God!

I mean, it looks like
a dinosaur could come out

of here.

Can we go in here?

It's Joe's place.

Now Joe, he spent
some time back here.

Why?

Well, one day he had words
with old Carter Atkins.

And Joe, he had his rifle by,

and you can guess the rest.

Joe killed a man.

Oh, that time it sure
got him in a mess of trouble.

'Cause Carter's wife,

she was never one
to let things drop,

and she got the sheriff
out after Joe

and they kept up on it, too,
even though they knew

it was a waste of time.

And Joe, he had
to keep on runnin'

I only seen him Sundays
when I bring a basket.

Right here.

You mean, you knew
where he was?

[CHUCKLES] Well, everyone knew
where he was.

They just didn't know
when he'd be there.

'Cept me.

He come to me...

every Sunday.

'Till he stopped coming.

I used to wait right here,

till I saw his lantern light.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

DIANA: What happened?

He just never come out no more.

I come here every Sunday

for a year.

Then I stopped.

Funny.

You have a live son
you think of as dead,

and a dead husband
you think of as alive.

Things I show
they is, that's all.

That's all.

Hi.

What's them bug-ears
you got on your head?

You've never seen
a walk-man before?

Well, here.

No, it's okay. Here, listen.

Listen.

There, just relax.

It's Elvis Costello.

Guess that's all right!

GRACE: He doesn't know
we can't hear us.

[DOG BARKING]

-CANDY: Hi.
-GRACE: Hi.

You want a turn, honey?

No.

GRACE: Well...

here.

-You guys ever get out of here?
-CANDY: Come here, pup.

Momma says it's all hell

and high water out there.

Yeah.

We seen what's in town.

Yeah.

I bet you'd get out of here

if you weren't so scared
of your mother.

I mean, listen, I understand.

My mother's a drag.

Just nag, nag, nag all the time.

And yours...

what a killer bitch.

Be sorry you said that.

My dad is watchin' you.

He heard that.

Wait a minute. This is crazy.

Isn't he dead?

Why don't you guys wake up?.

You're like slaves here.

Don't you know
there are places like Sweden,

where kids can sue their parents

for fuckin' them up?

And you're here

afraid of your dead father!

What did you say
this record was?

You!

You get back up to the house.
Hear me?

Now!

No, it's okay.

Jesus Christ.

I don't believe it.

What don't you believe?

These people.

They're crazy. Can we get out
of here, please?

[LAUGHS] Well, they--
they are odd.

But Henry won't be back
for two days, so.

Anyway, I'm finding out

amazing stuff about Joe.

What a character.

Uh, this is going
to be the best story.

What about the kid
who's locked up in the shed?

That is part of the whole thing.

The ignorance, the superstition.

Maybe we can help
a little by being here.

You know, teach them something.

Yeah, maybe you think so.

But it's like South Africa here.

But, it's not South Africa.

Mother, that woman
is a slave driver!

Well, that's too extreme.
No. She's...

I don't think
they've ever heard of fun.

Maybe their fun is simple.

I bet their fun is stupid.

And you have fun in enlightened

and sophisticated ways.

Do you know what I mean?

Is going out
with a forty year old man

sophisticated enough for you?

Now, exactly what is going on

between you
and Andre Zimbalm?

Oh god! What a choice!

I don't believe your nerve.

That slick,

underhanded, phoney, flashy...

Well, you certainly liked
him enough to fuck him.

Come on, I know all about it.

He told me.

We share everything.

Including his drug habit,
am I right?

-You spied on me.
-Hmm.

I was looking for my belt.

-Yeah, right.
-Uh! Listen to me, miss.

I hate to tell you this
but all I want

is to help you,

help yourself.

Right now, my opinion of you

is at an all-time low.

[SIGHS]

Here.

Take it,

take it from me.

I think you should
take responsibility

for this yourself.

You throw it away.

I mean, how am I supposed
to trust you?

I'm sure you've got it
hidden all over the place.

Don't put
the responsibility on me.

Please, just take it.

DIANA: No, no, no.

What about the next time?

You know,
you're gonna have to live

without a policeman
standing at your back.

You're a free person!

So I'm free, then.

Free.

I can do whatever I want.

[SIGHS]

I'll kill myself here.

RUTH: I'll give you a secret.

When I was a girl,

I was like you.
I wanted to go, too.

But Joe, he wouldn't hear
nothin' like that.

And then, somethin'
happened to me.

You know what happened?

I started havin' my boys.

And honey,
when you look at the world

with a baby in your arms,

it looks so different.

But don't you see?

We could all live
away from here.

We could all go to town.

If Mark worked on a oil rig,

we could have a car.

We could have electricity!

This is where I am.

And this is where I'll die.

But there's nothing

to do here!

There's no radio...

no T.V.

[SOBBING]

I hate here.

-I hate it.
-RUTH: All right,

you can go to town!

First baby is a frightening
thing. You go to town.

You go have that baby in town.

[SOBBING]

But then you come
right back here.

I know you wouldn't leave me
without the comfort

of my own grandchild.

[CRYING]

What's the matter,
I give you my word.

All right! We'll find you a T.V.

What'd I say wrong now?

I told you I was goin'
to get you a T.V.

[CANDY SOBBING]

Where'll we plug it in?

God will provide.

Well, I think...

God forgot about this place.

I need some form
of entertainment.

You will never take
my son from me.

You will never take
my grandchild from this house.

Never! Do you hear me?

Uh-hmm.

[CRICKETS CHIRPING]

[ENGINE REVVING]

[WHISTLES]

Come here.

Yeah, yeah, you, come on.

Come over here. Come on,
I ain't gonna bite ya.

Anybody around?

Okay. Will you hand me
that key right there?

It's that key
hangin' right on there.

Oh, oh, okay.

TOM: That's it. Come on.

-GRACE: Where are we going?
-TOM: I'll show you.

-Wee!
-GRACE: This better be good.

Oh god.

It's so far!

TOM: No it's not. No it's not.

GRACE: Yes, it is.

TOM: Wee!

[LAUGHTER]

TOM: Here's the tricky part.

GRACE: Oh god.

TOM: Just got to grab this rope,swing down.

-You got it?
-GRACE: Yes, I've got it.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

Sit down.

TOM: Here.

No.

Thank you for letting me
out of that shed.

It was nothing, really.

Can I steal you
something to eat,

or something like that?

I ain't hungry.

GRACE: Oh.

-How can you stand that?
-TOM: What?

Being locked up like an animal?

I'm no animal.

I didn't say that.

Don't you ever want to live
in the city?

No.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[SIGHS]

Well, do you have a girlfriend?

I don't need no girlfriend.

You better lock me
back up in the shed now.

Why?

I don't wanna make my momma mad.

Hold his head.

Yeah, looks like he came
pretty near to killin' you.

Can't even keep hold
of your own boat.

Anything I can do to help?

Okay, I'll go to the police with you.

No sheriff.

Hang on, it's the last one.
Here goes.

Oh, god.

Hold still.

Ah, god damn it!

Does it hurt?

DIANA: You've got to do something
to stop this violence.

You have a right to police protection.

Don't you see I can help you?

I'm from Cosmopolitan Magazine!

Do you know what that means?

The Press!

[SIGHS]

The police don't want me writing

that they're not doing their jobs.

[SIGHS]

You can go now, I'm done.

Say, nobody told me
I had a cousin like you.

From the Big Apple, too?

[LAUGHS]

So, what brings you
to Sportsman's Paradise?

Well, believe it or not,

I'm writing an article
about the family.

Yeah, that's great.

You know, actually,
I started off...

writing about your father.

Your mother told me
a lot about him.

Really? [LAUGHS]

What did she say?

Quite a bit.

My mother...

did she tell you...

that this man used to hang her
upside down

when he was drunk?

You know, she never ever tells
anybody that.

I call that nuts.

I mean, my mother's
a grade A whacko.

I mean, they're all whacko.

You know, I am lucky

because I am normal.

I am normal, right?

Normal!

Well, right.

What are you saying about
your father?

Uh, I really don't want
to talk about that.

Just look at this place!

Something that would make you

And then we could have a party

What? What-what

and they call

Oh, how blessed Mother of God,

I tell you this morning,

when you look
into the scriptures

beyond the birth of Christ
and Mary's part,

you find something there
about calling on God

and calling on the Lord

but never will you find
about Mary.

But where is Mary
when we come to prayer?

Where is our most
priestly father,

ah, when we come to pray?

It's not there.

Somebody....

Ruth, I have to talk to you
about this.

About Joe.

How he treated you.

Michael told me.

"I'll tell you this morning--"

Michael told you.

You find somethin' there

about callin' on God

and callin' on the Lord and--

Why don't you take
your family away from here?

MAN: And where is the mighty,
priestly Father

You don't really believe

I don't believe.

I guess you ain't got too many
nice things to say about us

in that magazine of yours.

Listen to me.
I want to say somethin'.

I wanna tell you what he was.

Joe.

I want to tell you
how I hated him.

It was more than Michael said.

I'm the one that lived
in Joe's hell.

Me and my Paul.

My Pauli, who he spoilt.

He spoilt my little boy.

On one night when even I
believed the good Lord

had forsaken us,

the highwater burst the levery.

Took everything, all the houses.

It was 1966.

I was carryin' Pauli.

Sick as a dog.

Scared.

Joe come to the room,
he pulled me out of bed by my hair.

He was sayin' that, uh,

if I didn't come out
that without two more hands,

we'd all surely die.

But you see,

I thought I was dyin' already.

I begged him, on my knees,

I swear, like I never beg

'cause I couldn't walk,
I couldn't bend.

So, he grabbed me up
with one hand,

and then I saw his fist.

It was covered with mud,

and he aimed it right here.

This is where he hit me.
It was right here.

And then he hit me again.

And I swear to God
I heard somethin' go.

I heard somethin' pop.

And he dragged me outside
and I worked.

[LAUGHS]

I worked against the water.

And it wasn't 'cause
I was scared the flood,

it was 'cause
I was scared of him.

And I hated him,

I hated him.

How could he do such a thing?

Because there would have been
no child.

There would have been
no children.

None of us.
No nothing.

If he hadn't a done it.

You see,
he was never a warm man.

He ran hot and he ran cold.

It was because of that
he saved us.

He saved us all.

Now, you go home...

and you write that.

I'm not writing anything.

I saw him,

last night...

-out there.

Yeah.

I don't give a damn!
