MORNING.

Man: MORNING. WHAT DO YOU WANT?

HUH?

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

HOW MUCH?

24 CENTS...CASH.

DON'T PUT HIM IN

WITH ANY OTHER HORSE, WOULD YOU?

WHY NOT?

IT WOULD JUST BE BETTER.

THAT WILL BE EXTRA.

[WHINNY]

PUT HIM IN WITH ANOTHER HORSE,

HE'S GOING TO KILL HIM.

THAT WILL BE EXTRA FOR YOU.

WHAT THE HELL ELSE DOES HE DO?

WELL, HE CAN SPIN

IN HALF HIS OWN LENGTH

AND CROSS FIRE FROM EITHER SIDE.

IF YOU DROP A DIME OVER IN THAT STALL,

DON'T STOOP TO GET IT.

GET IT WITH YOUR PITCHFORK.

WHAT DO YOU KEEP HIM AROUND FOR?

THAT'S A MOTHER-IN-LAW HORSE.

YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS?

A MOTHER-IN-LAW HORSE

IS A HORSE YOU PUT YOUR MOTHER-IN-LAW ON.

YOU SEND THEM BOTH UP IN THE HILLS

AND HOPE THEY DON'T EVER COME BACK.

HERE'S YOUR MONEY.

24.

HE JUST ALL AROUND

LOOKS AFTER MY BEST WELFARE.

I'M GOING OUT AND GET A MORNING WHISKEY.

IF ALL GOES WRONG, I'LL COME BACK

AND SLEEP IN THAT STALL.

WHAT ABOUT YOUR TACK?

KEEP IT IN THERE.

ANYBODY THAT'S BRAVE ENOUGH

TO GO IN THERE AND GET IT--

THEY'RE WELCOME TO IT.

Man: HARRY, PASS THE CHAMPAGNE.

Second Man: BREAKFAST CHAMPAGNE IN HAGERVILLE.

Third Man: HOW CAN I PASS THE CHAMPAGNE

WHEN DEXTER DRANK IT ALL?

BARKEEP, A LITTLE MORE CHAMPAGNE.

AS SOON AS WE GET TO SAN FRANCISCO,

I WANT TO CHECK OUT WHERE MAHARE IS TRAINING.

IT WILL BE PRETTY TOUGH.

I UNDERSTAND HE'S COPYING YOUR STYLE, JIM.

I'M NOT WORRIED ABOUT HIM.

LAST 10 GUYS HE FACED, HE KNOCKED 'EM OUT.

Man: HE'S NEVER SEEN JIM'S FOOTWORK.

REMEMBER THAT FLORIDA FIGHT?

YOU WERE SO FAST

HE COULDN'T LAND A PUNCH.

HEY,

THAT NEW PUNCH OF YOURS IS THE GREATEST IN THE GAME.

HEY, TEX,

DID YOU EVER HEAR OF A HOOK PUNCH?

NO, I HAVEN'T.

WELL, WE'RE TOASTING THE MAN

WITH THE GREATEST HOOK PUNCH IN THE WORLD.

BARKEEP, GIVE TEX SOME CHAMPAGNE

SO HE CAN TOAST WITH US.

I'D RATHER HAVE WHISKEY.

GIVE HIM ANYTHING HE WANTS.

JIM, YOU BROUGHT A TOUCH OF CLASS

TO THIS GAME.

AND A LOT OF PRETTY LADIES.

[GLASSES CLINKING]

HEY, TEX. YOU READY?

WHAT ARE WE TOASTING?

WE'RE TOASTING

THE NEXT HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD--

"GENTLEMAN" JIM CORBETT.

WELL, HE'S GOT TO FIGHT FOR IT YET,

SO HE AIN'T CHAMPION.

WHY DON'T WE TOAST SOMETHING INTERESTING.

LIKE WHAT?

WELL, LIKE GERONIMO THERE?

HE'S INTERESTING.

IN A PIG'S ASS.

DON'T YOU READ THE PAPERS?

THEY PUT GERONIMO IN JAIL,

WHERE HE BELONGS.

LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING, TEX.

WHO'S GERONIMO NEXT TO JIM CORBETT?

GERONIMO'S A MAN SO GREAT

THAT CORBETT THERE WOULD HAVE TO STAND

ON HIS MOTHER'S SHOULDERS TO KISS HIS ASS.

FRANK!

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

TOM HORN.

DO YOU HAVE A GUN, TOM?

NO, I DON'T.

GOOD. THEN YOU'RE GOING TO GET

EXACTLY WHAT YOU DESERVE.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU COME FROM, TOM,

BUT THE MANNERS THAT YOU'VE ARRIVED WITH

ARE JUST AWFUL.

I'M TRYING TO IMAGINE

HOW YOU COULD MAKE SUCH A REFERENCE

TO THE MOTHER OF THE FUTURE

HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD.

WELL, YOU AIN'T CHAMPION YET.

BESIDES, YOU'RE ACTING KINDA LIKE AN ASSHOLE.

I COULD GO TO THE PENITENTIARY OVER YOU, HORN.

NOW WAIT A MINUTE.

BEFORE WE START THIS FIGHT,

I WANT TO ASK YOU ONE QUESTION.

IS IT ABOUT MY MOTHER?

NO. I'VE SAID ENOUGH ABOUT HER.

IF I WIN THIS FIGHT,

AM I THE CHAMPION OF THE WORLD?

YOU'RE NOT BIG ENOUGH.

THEN WHY ARE YOU PICKING ON A LITTLE FELLOW LIKE ME FOR?

YOU GET IN A FIGHT IN A PUBLIC BAR,

THEY'LL DISCREDIT YOU FROM THE FIGHT PROFESSION.

I'M GONNA SAVE YOU FROM THAT.

THAT AIN'T THE REAL TOM HORN, IS IT?

HE DON'T SEEM TO BE TOO SCARED OF CORBETT.

HE'S GOING TO GET HISSELF KILLED.

LORD, THE END IS HERE.

IS TOM HORN IN THERE?

OH, YEAH. HE'S HERE.

LAST STALL ON THE RIGHT.

I WOULDN'T GO IN THERE WITH THAT HORSE

IF I WERE YOU.

THAT SON OF A BITCH IS HALF RANK.

HE'S GOT HIM TRAINED TO STAND PEOPLE OFF.

WELL, HE'S A HERO OF THE FRONTIER,

AND HE'S LYING HERE IN HAGERVILLE

WITH HIS FACE KICKED IN.

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

Horn: YEAH.

HOW BAD YOU HURT?

IT WASN'T MUCH OF A PARTY.

SAY, YOU ANOTHER ONE

OF THOSE NEWSPAPER GUYS?

NO, I AIN'T,

BUT I'D LIKE TO GET YOU

OUT FROM UNDER THAT HORSE, IF I CAN.

WELL, OPEN UP THAT GATE,

AND I'LL WALK HIM OUT.

[HORSE WHINNIES]

[GRUNTS]

LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING.

ARE YOU IN FACT TOM HORN?

YES, I AM.

GODDAMN, TOM.

HA HA HA!

AH.

YOU KNOW, HERE IN JERKVILLE,

WHERE THESE YOKELS

IS BUSY FLICKING DANDRUFF

OFF THEIR MAIL-ORDER SUITS,

THEY FORGET AWFUL QUICK

THAT IT WAS MEN LIKE YOU

THAT MADE IT SAFE AND POSSIBLE

FOR THEM TO LEAD OUT

THEIR DULL LITTLE LIVES.

WELL, RIGHT NOW,

I WISH I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

JOHN COBLE.

WELL, WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU, JOHN?

WELL, FIRST I'D LIKE TO OFFER YOU MY RANCH

TILL YOU GET RECOVERED.

AND THEN I'D LIKE TO OFFER YOU WORK

THAT SUITS BOTH YOUR ABILITY

AND YOUR QUALITIES.

I'M A FAIR HAND, AND I'LL EARN MY KEEP.

I KNOW YOU WILL, TOM.

[PLAYING MUSIC]

Coble: WE BETTER STOP AND WATER OUR HORSES

HERE AT BROWN'S HOLE.

WE SHOULD MOVE ON AS QUICKLY AS WE CAN.

TOM...

SOME OF THOSE COWS IN THERE ARE MINE.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT, MR. COBLE?

OH, WE'RE JUST GOING TO WATER OUR HORSES,

AND WE'LL BE MOVING ON.

YOU LIKE TO BUY SOME OF THEM COWS?

[TWANGS MOUTH HARP]

I DON'T WANT NO TROUBLE,

AND LIKE I SAY, WE'LL BE MOVING ON.

[PLAYING MOUTH HARP]

Man: HOW ABOUT A LITTLE DANCE?

GIVE US A LITTLE DANCE,

MR. COBLE.

DANCE!

I SAID DANCE!

[GUNSHOT]

OW!

ALL RIGHT, MR. COBLE,

WHY DON'T YOU JUST RIDE ON OUT?

AAH!

GET THAT SHOOTER AND PUT IT IN THIS WATER TROUGH.

Horn: MOVE!

Man: YOU SON OF A BITCH!

I'LL GET YOU, YOU SON OF A BITCH!

Coble: TOM, THAT LITTLE DEAL

BACK THERE AT BROWN'S HOLE

OUGHT TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA

OF WHAT WE'VE BEEN PUTTING UP WITH OUT HERE.

Man: GET UP! GET UP, YOU!

HYAH!

HYAH!

I AIN'T NEVER SEEN ROPING LIKE THAT.

DAMN. HE SURE DON'T ROPE LIKE NO CHRISTIAN.

I'M GOING TO TELL YOU--

ANY MEANS THAT YOU HAVE TO TAKE

TO ELIMINATE THIS RUSTLING PROBLEM,

WE'RE ALL BEHIND YOU 100%.

THE WHOLE ORGANIZATION?

ALL OF US.

WELL, I'LL JUST HAVE TO

TAKE YOUR WORD ON THAT, JOHN.

YOU GOT IT.

[GUNSHOT]

Coble: HEY, TOM, HOW YOU FEELING?

Horn: WELL, WE'RE PLUGGING ALONG.

I'M GIVING A LITTLE PARTY AT THE HOUSE,

AND I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET EVERYBODY.

I'M KIND OF RAGGEDY.

NOBODY WILL MIND.

MOST OF THE ASSOCIATION

WILL BE THERE,

AND THEY'RE ALL ANXIOUS TO MEET YOU.

OK.

THAT'S IT!

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

IN THIS AGE OF QUARTER-SECTION PASTURES,

TINHORN LEGISLATORS

THAT'S RIDING OUR OLD TRAILS,

IT'S A REAL PLEASURE TO WELCOME A VESTIGE

OF THAT HEROIC ERA THAT WE JUST ABOUT LOST.

STANDING BESIDE ME, RIGHT HERE,

IS THE LEGENDARY TRACKER AND INTERPRETER

OF THE APACHE WARS-- TOM HORN.

TOM, THIS IS ARLO CHANCE.

TOM.

Coble: ORA HALEY.

HOWDY.

IAN MacGREGOR.

PROUD TO MEET YOU, TOM.

WHAT'S THE MATTER, TOM?

WHAT IS IT?

IT'S A LOBSTER.

I'LL BE DARNED.

I'VE NEVER EATEN A BUG

THAT BIG BEFORE.

TOM, THAT'S A MAINE LOBSTER--

BOILED ALIVE, PACKAGED IN SEAWEED,

AND SHIPPED OUT HERE BY TRAIN.

Haley: AT EVERY STATION,

THE CONDUCTOR DRAINS THE MELTED SEAWATER

OFF OF THEM.

GETTING THE HANG OF IT?

I'M TRYING.

Haley: TOM, I DON'T KNOW

WHETHER JOHN HERE TOLD YOU,

BUT WE'VE GOT A HELL OF A RANGE PROBLEM HERE.

THE DAMN RUSTLERS HAVE COMPLETELY WIPED OUT

OUR HERD PROFITS,

NOT TO MENTION WHAT THE BLIZZARDS

AND THE PREDATORS HAVE DONE TO OUR CALF CROPS.

WE GOT PEOPLE HOMESTEADING OUR RANGELAND

AND RAISING SHEEP ON OUR GRASS.

Man: RIGHT AT THE PRESENT TIME, MR. HORN,

WHAT'S YOUR PRIMARY SOURCE OF LIVELIHOOD?

WELL, MR. COBLE OFFERED ME

TO EASE UP AT HIS PLACE FOR A WHILE,

AND I SAID I'D EARN MY KEEP.

WELL, THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH.

TOM, YOU MET JOE BELLE?

UNITED STATES MARSHAL.

Horn: HELLO.

I'M NOT WANTED FOR ANYTHING, AM I?

TOM, WHY DON'T YOU TWO FELLAS

SEE IF YOU CAN GET YOUR HEADS TOGETHER

FOR A FEW MINUTES, WILL YOU?

GO AHEAD, TOM.

DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?

NO.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU USED TO BE

IN THE SOUTHWEST,

I USED TO BE IN THE NORTHWEST.

I WAS OUT OF WORK.

I KNOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN AS I'VE BEEN--

A MAN HUNTER.

I WAS A TRACKER.

BETTER STILL.

WELL, JOHN COBLE'S PUT IN

A PRETTY FERVENT RECOMMENDATION FOR YOU

TO THE CATTLEMEN'S ASSOCIATION

TO HELP CONTROL THE RUSTLING.

I BELIEVE HIS POINT WAS

HANDLING RUSTLERS

AFTER YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH THE APACHE WARS

SHOULD BE LIKE SHOOTING FISH IN A BARREL.

WELL, NOW, YOU'RE TALKING

ABOUT THE HIGH SIDE OF SHOOTING

AND THE LOW SIDE OF THE LAW.

BRING THEM TO TRIAL, IF YOU'D LIKE.

I FEEL THAT WHAT I KNOW ABOUT YOU,

YOU'RE GOING TO WANT TO GO AHEAD AND SHOOT.

FROM THE STANDPOINT OF THE ASSOCIATION,

THAT'S GOING TO BE ENTIRELY UP TO YOU.

WHETHER I BRING THEM IN

OR SHOOT.

THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM.

LISTEN, YOU'RE A U.S. MARSHAL.

YOU TELL ME, WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN A U.S. MARSHAL

AND AN ASSASSIN?

A MARSHAL'S CHECKS COME IN ON TIME.

SAY, DID BUFFALO BILL EVER ASK YOU

TO BE IN HIS WILD WEST SHOW?

YEAH. HE ASKED ME ONCE OUT IN ARIZONA,

BUT WE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE KILLED.

HE OFFERED ME MY OWN ACT.

WELL, LIKE I SAID,

WE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE KILLED.

Coble: JOE...

COULD I TALK WITH YOU A MINUTE?

SURE.

MAN OF THE WEST, INDIAN TRACKER,

SCARED TO DEATH OF LOBSTER.

IT...IT WAS MY FIRST TIME.

WHAT DO YOU...

TEACH SCHOOL.

YEAH?

YEAH.

WHAT WERE YOU GOING TO ASK ME?

THAT.

WHAT?

WHAT YOU DO.

TEACH SCHOOL.

SCHOOLTEACHER?

MM-HMM.

WHAT WAS IT LIKE

OUT IN INDIAN TERRITORY?

LONELY AS HELL.

WHAT DID YOU DO OUT IN THE WEST?

COWBOY.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO FOR MR. COBLE?

COWBOY.

JOE, I THINK WE FOUND OUR MAN.

NOT ANYTHING IN BROWN'S HOLE

I COULDN'T TAKE CARE OF.

WELL, I THINK HORN'S REPUTATION

MIGHT BE AS EFFECTIVE AS A WINCHESTER IS HERE.

I HAVE QUITE

A GOOD REPUTATION MYSELF, JOHN.

IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO PRECEDE ME.

I KNOW THAT, JOE,

BUT YOUR POLITICAL AMBITIONS

ARE GOING TO FIT RIGHT IN

WITH OUR FUTURE PLANS.

NOW, WE DON'T WANT TO FORGET THAT, DO WE?

AND BESIDES, THERE WON'T BE

NO CHOCOLATE CAKE FOR HORN

UP THERE AT BROWN'S HOLE.

WHERE ARE YOU FROM ORIGINALLY?

HAWAII.

HAWAII?

YEAH, HAWAII.

DID YOU LIVE IN ONE OF THOSE GRASS HUTS?

IN A HOTEL.

THEY HAVE THOSE THERE?

SURE THEY DO.

SURE COME A LONG WAYS

TO TEACH SCHOOL IN WYOMING.

WELL, I GUESS YOU COULD SAY

I'VE HAD A ROMANCE WITH THE WEST

SINCE I WAS OLD ENOUGH TO READ.

DO YOU MISS THAT OCEAN?

SOMETIMES.

YOU KNOW, I NEVER LEARNED HOW TO RIDE.

IS THAT RIGHT?

Belle: GLENDOLENE.

OH, IT'S A NICE AFTERNOON, JOHN.

I ENJOYED MY LOBSTER,

AND I KNOW MR. HORN DID, TOO.

WELL, I'M GLAD YOU LIKED IT.

EXCELLENT AFTERNOON, JOHN.

JOE.

TOM.

GET UP. GET UP THERE.

TOM.

TOM!

THE WAY I SEE THIS,

YOU'LL BE A STOCK DETECTIVE.

SEE THAT THE RUSTLING GETS STOPPED.

YOU CAN STAY HERE AT THE RANCH,

AND I'LL PAY YOUR WAGES AS A COWHAND--

$200 FOR EVERY RUSTLER

THAT GOES SOMEWHERE ELSE

TO PLY HIS TRADE.

WHO DO I REPORT TO?

TO ME.

AND AS FAR AS YOU'RE CONCERNED,

YOU AND JOE BELLE

NEVER DISCUSSED THIS.

AND FOR THAT MATTER,

NEITHER HAVE I.

25? DO I HEAR 25?

WILL YOU BID 30? THANK YOU. NOW A HALF?

HALF? WILL YOU BID 35? 35? 40?

40? THANK YOU, SIR. NOW A HALF.

WILL YOU BID A HALF? 75?

GOT A DOLLAR. HOW ABOUT GOING FOR A HALF? HALF.

BID AND BUY THEM FOR A HALF.

WILL YOU BID TWO? WILL YOU BID TWO?

I GOT TWO RIGHT OVER HERE. THANK YOU, SIR.

SOLD TO WESTERN TRAIL PACKING COMPANY

FOR $2.00.

COULD I SEE THAT BILL OF SALE?

THANK YOU, SON.

YOU CONSIDER THIS AN ACTUAL BILL OF SALE?

I'M JUST THE AUCTIONEER, SIR.

THE BILL OF SALE'S BEEN SWORN TO.

WELL, WHOEVER SWORE TO IT...

WAS A LIAR AND A COW THIEF.

THOSE COWS BELONG TO JOHN COBLE

OF THE WOOD RIVER CATTLE COMPANY.

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?

STOCK DETECTIVE.

WHAT'S A STOCK DETECTIVE?

ME.

YOU MAY CALL YOURSELF

SOME KIND OF STOCK DETECTIVE,

BUT I'M A DEPUTY SHERIFF,

AND I'M THE LAW HERE.

LOCK THESE MEN UP. I'LL FILE THE CHARGES.

Deputy: NOBODY'S GOING TO JAIL

UNLESS YOU START SOME TROUBLE.

I SEE.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, HORN.

I'M GOING TO KILL YOU.

YOU AIN'T GOING TO KILL NOBODY.

IF HE DON'T, I WILL.

YOUR DAMN CHARGES AIN'T GONNA STICK.

IF THE CHARGES DON'T STICK,

I'LL JUST TAKE IT BETWEEN US

AS WHO GETS WHO FIRST.

THAT'S HOW IT'S GOING TO BE, THEN.

THERE WON'T BE NO MORE COWS STOLEN--

NOT FROM THE WOOD RIVER CATTLE COMPANY,

THE BAR-THREE CATTLE COMPANY,

OR THE HALEY CATTLE COMPANY.

CONSIDER THAT MY LAST WORD

ON THE MATTER.

COME ON, BOYS. LET'S HAVE AN AUCTION.

[WHISTLES]

YOU KNOW, I GOT A WEIRD FEELING.

YO, ME, TOO.

WE'RE BEING FOLLOWED.

HEY, LOOK!

[GUNSHOT]

WHOA! WHOA! WHOA!

WHOA!

[NEIGH]

[HORSE NEIGHS]

TELL THEM WHAT YOU SAW HERE.

[WHINNY]

[WOLVES HOWLING]

[WHINNYING]

[SPURS JINGLING]

[NEIGH]

[MEN SHOUTING]

HYAH! HYAH! HYAH!

HANG IN THERE, HORN!

COME ON, THERE! COME ON!

THAT'S IT.

GO ON! GO ON!

LET HIM STOP FIRST.

THEN GIVE HIM SOME SLACK.

WHOA, WHOA.

COME ON. HITCH HIM UP.

WHOA, WHOA.

HANG IN THERE!

OH...

WHOA, WHOA.

WHOA. OH...

WHOA.

WHOA, WHOA!

EASE UP ON HIM THERE.

YOU GOT HIM!

WHOA!

AHH...WHOA!

[NEIGHING]

[SHOUTING]

GET UP THERE!

YEAH.

HE'S A GOOD HORSE.

Horn: YOU GO AHEAD,

RIDE HIM AROUND A LITTLE AND TIRE HIM OUT.

IF YOU KEEP HIS HEAD UP, HE AIN'T GOING TO BUCK.

TOM, COULD I TALK TO YOU A MINUTE?

YOU BET. ALL RIGHT.

GO AHEAD AND TAKE THE ROUGH OFF OF HIM.

I'LL COME BACK AFTER HE'S QUIETED DOWN

AND PUT A HANDLE ON HIM.

HEY.

WHAT DO I DO IF I GET INTO A REAL STORM WITH THIS HORSE?

WELL, JUST GET OFF HIM THE BEST YOU CAN,

BUT DON'T LET HIM ROLL ON THAT SADDLE.

I THINK THAT I--

HYAH!

HEY! I NEED THAT HORSE!

AAH!

SHIT!

STOP THAT HORSE!

I NEED THAT HORSE!

GET THAT HORSE!

Glendolene: I CAN UNDERSTAND

YOU SMALLER CHILDREN,

BUT YOU OLDER CHILDREN HAVE NO EXCUSES,

SO WE'RE GOING TO STAY UNTIL YOU GET IT RIGHT.

I DON'T WANT ANY ERASURES,

SO TURN THE PAGE AND START FRESH.

PUT THAT MOUSE IN YOUR POCKET.

[SPURS JINGLING]

[FOOTSTEPS]

I BRUNG YOU A HORSE.

UH, CLASS DISMISSED.

[SHOUTING]

LORD, IT'S LIKE A STAMPEDE.

UH, I'M NOT DRESSED FOR RIDING.

SURE.

WELL, GO ON HOME. GO ON!

[CHILDREN SHOUTING]

I'M NOT DRESSED FOR RIDING.

WHY, SURE YOU ARE.

WHY, WOMEN RIDE ALL THE TIME DRESSED LIKE THAT.

I BUSTED THAT HORSE FOR YOU.

COME ON. I'LL BOOT YOU UP ON HIM.

COME ON.

HE'S BEAUTIFUL.

HE'S A GOOD HORSE.

COME ON.

I'LL PUT YOU UP THERE.

HERE YOU GO.

OK.

OH! OH!

YOU ALL RIGHT?

HA HA! HOW DO I GET--

TAKE HOLD OF HIS REINS.

GRAB HIS REINS.

GRAB A LITTLE HANDFUL OF HIS MANE.

GIVE HIM A LITTLE KICK IN THE SLATS.

YEAH.

KIND OF...HOLD ON WITH YOUR THIGHS.

THAT'S IT.

KIND OF ROLL YOUR HIPS A LITTLE. GO AHEAD.

ROLL YOUR HIPS ALONG WITH THE HORSE.

GOT TO MOVE WITH...

YOU RIDE GOOD.

[GLENDOLENE TALKING INDISTINCTLY]

YEAH, SO I FINALLY GOT MY TEACHING DIPLOMA,

AND I TAUGHT IN CINCINNATI FOR A WHILE AND DENVER,

AND, WELL, I'VE BEEN EVERYWHERE.

I'M AN ADVENTURESS.

WELL, I THOUGHT THAT WAS A GIRL

THAT WORKED IN DANCE HALLS.

NO?

NO, THAT'S A GIRL WHO GOES ON ADVENTURES.

WELL...

HOW DO YOU FIGURE

THIS DAY WE'RE HAVING OUT HERE?

AN ADVENTURE.

YEAH. WHOA.

HOW DO I WORK INTO IT--

THIS ADVENTURE?

WHOA. HA HA!

WHOA.

WELL, UH...

I SEE A MAN OF THE OLD WEST

TRYING TO LIVE IN THE NEW.

HEY, DO YOU KNOW

HOW RAGGEDY-ASS AND TERRIBLE

THE OLD WEST REALLY WAS?

NO.

WELL, IF YOU SPEND ANY TIME WITH ME,

YOU'LL FIND OUT JUST HOW RAGGEDY-ASS IT WAS.

YOU LOVE IT OUT HERE, DON'T YOU?

YES, I DO.

[THUNDER]

MORNING.

Man: GOOD MORNING.

LOOKING FOR LEE MENDENHOUR'S PLACE.

TWO DRAINAGES OVER IS A LITTLE BASIN.

LEE'S SITUATED ON THE MORNING SIDE.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

TOM HORN.

WELL, I THOUGHT MAYBE.

LOOK...

I AIN'T NEVER STOLE NOTHIN'.

I SURE AM SORRY ABOUT LEE.

HE WASN'T TOO DAMN BAD A FELLA.

HE'S STILL WITH US.

HE IS NOW.

WELL, HE WEREN'T TOO BAD A FELLA.

[COWS MOOING]

WHOA.

THOSE ARE COBLE'S CATTLE YOU'RE RUNNING THERE.

SAME OLD DEAL.

YEAH. THAT'S WHAT I WAS AFRAID OF.

YOU GET MY NOTE TELL YOU TO GET OUT OF THIS AREA?

YEAH, I GOT YOUR FUCKING NOTE.

I ROLLED IT UP WITH SOME TOBACCO

AND I SMOKED IT.

THAT'S WHAT I DID, CHAMPION.

[GUNSHOT]

[NEIGH]

YOU KILLED MY HORSE, YOU SON OF A BITCH!

[GLASS SHATTERING]

[FIRE BURNING]

[GUNSHOT]

[GUNSHOT]

[CLICK]

[GASPING]

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

Haley: HOWDY, JOHN.

GENTLEMEN.

IT'S THIS HORN SITUATION.

WE GOT A PROBLEM.

YOU THINK MAYBE HE MIGHT BE

JUST A LITTLE BIT TOO PROTECTIVE?

YOU KNOW, WE STILL GOT

THE NOLT SHEEP PROBLEM

ON THE SOUTH FORK.

BUT THE RUSTLING HAS STOPPED.

YEAH, WELL, I THINK IT'S HIS RIFLE

EVERY BIT AS MUCH AS HIS REPUTATION

THAT'S DONE THAT.

IT'S ALMOST A FOREGONE CONCLUSION

THAT THIS FELLOW'S WORKING FOR US.

YOU KNOW, AFTER THAT INCIDENT IN TOWN,

WE'RE WITHIN ONE DAMN INCH

OF HAVING OUR NAMES

SPLATTERED ALL OVER THE NEWSPAPER.

AND I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU

WHAT AN EMBARRASSING SITUATION

THAT COULD PUT ALL OF US IN.

WELL, WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST?

JOHN, WE JUST CAN NO LONGER AFFORD THIS FELLA.

HE'S ONLY DOING

WHAT WE HIRED HIM TO DO, YOU KNOW.

JOHN, THE TIME HAS COME FOR US

TO DIVEST OURSELF OF THIS MR. HORN.

HOW?

I THINK JOE THERE

IS THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION.

LET THIS THING LIE DOWN, JOHN.

UNDERSTAND?

Chance: THANK YOU, JOHN.

[BLEATING]

[GUNSHOT]

Man: HEY, BOB, LOOK AT THIS.

A MAN'S GOING TO PRISON

FOR ELOPING WITH HIS SISTER-IN-LAW.

I'LL BE.

I WONDER WHAT HE DID.

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

PUT DOWN THE PAPER AND PLAY.

IT IS COLD.

NOLT BOY GOT KILLED, TOM.

HOW'S THAT?

NOLT BOY-- JIMMY NOLT.

HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?

SHOT WITH A .45-60.

THAT'S WHAT I SHOOT-- A .45-60.

SHOOT WHAT, TOM?

PRAIRIE DOGS.

TOM...

[SPURS JINGLING]

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

JIMMY NOLT'S DEAD.

YEAH.

WHERE'S YOUR HORSE?

HE'S DEAD, TOO.

TOM!

I KNEW YOU'D BE THERE.

YOU DID NOT.

OK.

I HEARD THE NEWS.

YOU STILL WORKING THAT HORSE

I STARTED FOR YOU?

IT'S ABOUT THE NOLT BOY.

WHAT ABOUT HIM?

THEY FOUND A ROCK UNDER HIS HEAD...

LIKE THOSE OTHER THREE FELLAS FROM BROWN'S HOLE.

YOU SEEN JOE BELLE AROUND?

THE ASSOCIATION SENT HIM UP

TO TALK TO COBLE.

TRYING TO FIGURE

WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO

WITH A CHILD-KILLER LIKE TOM HORN.

PEOPLE THINK YOU DID IT, TOM.

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON, DO YOU?

NO, I CAN'T SAY AS I DO.

WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?

I'M THINKING I WANT A DRINK.

[DOOR CLOSES]

WHISKEY, GEORGE.

LEAVE THE BOTTLE.

SORRY I'M LATE.

OH, IT'S ALL RIGHT, CHARLES.

LET'S GET STARTED.

WHAT WILL I NEED, JOE?

JUST YOUR WRITING THINGS.

WELL, WHERE'S TOM HORN?

HE'S OVER TO THE INTER-OCEAN HOTEL.

WHAT KIND OF CONDITION IS HE IN?

HE'LL BE JUST ABOUT WHERE WE WANT HIM

BY THE TIME WE GET SET UP.

COME ON OVER HERE.

I GOT A MATTRESS LAID OUT HERE

FOR YOU BEHIND THE DOOR.

CAN YOU WRITE OK LYING DOWN?

CAN YOU RIG ME A LITTLE LIGHT?

ABSOLUTELY.

GOT THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR PLANED OFF

SO YOU CAN HEAR REAL GOOD,

BUT YOU'VE GOT TO BE REAL QUIET.

JOE, WHAT IF TOM HORN SEES ME IN THERE?

YOU MEAN, WILL HE KILL YOU?

YES.

I'M NOT GONNA LET THAT HAPPEN, CHARLES.

A MAN LIKE THAT

YOU DON'T WANT TO GET MAD AT YOU.

I'M GONNA BE SITTING

RIGHT OVER THERE AT MY DESK.

I'VE GOT THIS COLT PATENT .44

IN MY VEST,

AND I'VE GOT A GERMAN AUTOMATIC

OVER IN THE DRAWER-- ONE OF THE NEW ONES.

WHAT I NEED IS

FOR TOM HORN TO TALK HIMSELF

INTO A TERRIBLE TANGLE

AND FOR YOU TO GET IT DOWN ON PAPER.

IT'S NO GOOD FOR US

JUST TO WRITE IT DOWN LATER.

YOU MEAN IT HAS TO BE IN HIS OWN WORDS?

JUST LIKE I SAID, CHARLES,

JUST LIKE I SAID.

[DOOR CLOSES]

HELLO, TOM.

HELLO, JOE.

I GOT A LETTER YESTERDAY, TOM,

FROM A FELLA UP IN MONTANA.

WHAT DID HE WANT?

I'M NOT SO SURE

THIS IS THE SPOT TO BE TALKING.

I GOT A BOTTLE OF MESCAL IN MY OFFICE.

IT'S QUIET.

SURE.

YOU'VE SPENT SOME TIME IN THE HILLS,

HAVEN'T YOU, JOE?

MOST OF MY LIFE, TOM.

THE WORLD IS CHANGING FAST.

I SEE THAT.

THE MEN HAD BETTER GET WITH IT.

I'M TRYING TO WORK A FEW THINGS OUT IN MY MIND.

STAYING IN THE HOTEL

AND BEING ABLE TO GET A DRINK RIGHT AWAY

SEEMS TO HELP.

THINK YOU'LL EVER GET BACK

IN THEM HILLS AGAIN, TOM?

HELL, I DON'T KNOW. SCARES ME TO DEATH.

I SEE YOU'RE CARRYING

A BELLY GUN, TOM.

I'VE NEVER KNOWN YOU TO DO THAT BEFORE.

WELL, I'M CARRYING A RIFLE IN TOWN AND ALL.

I GOT THIS INQUIRY FROM MONTANA

FOR A MAN WHO COULD COME UP THERE

AND SEE TO HIMSELF

AND LOOK TO A FEW THINGS THATAWAY

IN RESPECT TO ALL THE CATTLE STEALING

GOING ON IN THE BIG MOON

UP THERE IN THAT DISTRICT.

WHAT'S REQUIRED?

SOME ABILITY WITH A RIFLE.

YOU KNOW, JOE...

NOBODY EVER OFFERED TO GIVE ME AN OFFICE.

MAKE YOU FEEL KIND OF SPECIAL, DOES IT?

OH, I DON'T KNOW.

IF I HAD THE ABILITY YOU DO WITH A RIFLE,

NOBODY WOULD EVER EXPECT ME

TO COME IN OUT OF THE FIELD.

AS IT IS, I SPEND HALF MY TIME

ON THE RAILROAD

HANDCUFFED TO SOME PETTY CRIMINAL.

I'M A DELIVERY MAN.

WHAT'S THE BEST SHOT YOU EVER MADE, TOM?

OH, I DON'T KNOW.

WELL, WHAT ABOUT MENDENHOUR?

WELL, IF IT WAS ME,

I'D SAY IT WASN'T MUCH OF A SHOT.

WOULDN'T YOU RATHER SHOOT A SHARPS 50

INSTEAD OF THAT .45-60?

THOSE OLD BUFFALO GUNS CARRY BETTER,

BUT WITH A .45-60,

YOU CAN GET ROUNDS AT ANY GENERAL STORE.

KEEPS A DRYGULCHER IN BUSINESS.

TOM, ON THE KILLING OF THIS KID--

THAT WAS QUITE A SHOT.

WAS IT?

213 YARDS.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT?

WELL, WHAT I JUST TOLD YOU.

YOU AFRAID OF DYING, JOE?

YES, I AM.

WELL, I'M AFRAID OF LOSING MY ABILITY

TO BE ABLE TO COME AND GO AS I PLEASE.

LOSE MY FREEDOM...

NOT BE ABLE TO GET BACK UP IN THOSE HILLS AGAIN.

WHAT WOULD THEY DO TO A MAN

THAT KILLED A 15-YEAR-OLD BOY WITH A WINCHESTER?

I BELIEVE THAT MAN WOULD HAVE TO DIE.

AND YOU BELIEVE THAT A .45-60

THAT'S GOT A TRAJECTORY LIKE A RAINBOW

COULD MAKE THAT SHOT?

I KNOW IT COULD HAPPEN.

WELL, IF I'D HAVE KILLED THAT KID,

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE BEST SHOT I EVER MADE

AND THE DIRTIEST TRICK I EVER DONE.

HELLO, SAM.

TOM, I'M GOING TO HAVE TO ARREST YOU

FOR THE MURDER OF JIMMY NOLT.

TAKING YOURSELF

KIND OF SERIOUS, AIN'T YOU?

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH THAT WINCHESTER?

WELL, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FIND OUT,

AIN'T WE?

YEAH, I GUESS WE ARE.

I'LL TAKE THAT RIFLE, TOM.

HELLO, EARL.

TOM.

AND THE BELLY GUN.

COME ON, TOM.

WAIT RIGHT THERE, TOM.

Sam: EARL, DON'T PUT THAT PISTOL

IN THAT DRAWER.

KEEP IT IN YOUR POCKET.

YOU GOT ANYTHING

IN YOUR POCKETS, TOM?

WELL, I GOT SOME INDIAN STUFF HERE.

THERE'S SOME SHELLS IN A SHEEPSKIN

AND A LITTLE BIT OF CHANGE.

YOU READY?

NO. UPSTAIRS.

BILL, YOU STAY DOWN HERE.

I'M GOING TO PUT YOU IN THIS ONE, TOM.

I KNOW HOW YOU LOVE THOSE HILLS,

AND YOU CAN SEE A LITTLE BIT OF THEM FROM HERE.

DON'T CLOSE THAT DOOR

UNTIL I GET OVER TO THAT WINDOW, WOULD YOU?

[DOOR CLOSES]

IS IT TRUE

HORN WORKED FOR THE ASSOCIATION?

I'VE NOTHING TO SAY ON THAT.

IS THE ASSOCIATION GOING TO PAY FOR HIS DEFENSE?

I TOLD YOU, I HAVE NO MORE TO SAY.

[DOOR OPENS]

Man: JOHN COBLE TO SEE YOU.

TOM...

THIS IS THOMAS BURKE.

HE'LL BE YOUR LEGAL COUNSEL NOW.

WELL, EVERY BOY NEEDS ONE OF THOSE.

WELL, MR. BURKE'S THE MAN

TO PUT AN END TO ALL THIS FOR YOU.

I AIN'T GOT NO MONEY TO PAY YOU.

I'LL PAY THAT.

Burke: TOM, THEY'RE GONNA HAVE YOU

COME TO COURT VERY QUICKLY.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TRIED FOR ANYTHING BEFORE?

WELL, ONCE--

IT WAS A MILITARY TRIAL A LONG TIME AGO.

A COUPLE OF SCOUTS AND MYSELF.

WHAT WERE YOU CHARGED WITH?

INVASION OF MEXICO.

TOM, I HAVE TO MOVE ON WITH THIS AS QUICK AS I CAN.

YOU THINK I KILLED THAT BOY?

THAT QUESTION WILL NEVER COME UP BETWEEN US.

WHY NOT? IT'S GOING TO COME UP IN COURT.

WHEN DO I GO TO TRIAL?

THEY'RE BRINGING IN A JUDGE

AND SWEARING IN A JURY RIGHT NOW.

I'D LIKE TO SET UP A TIME

WHERE WE COULD GET TOGETHER

AND MAYBE MAKE A PREPARATION OR TWO.

WHAT FOR? WHAT ARE WE GOING TO TALK ABOUT,

IF WE DON'T TALK ABOUT WHETHER I KILLED THAT KID?

MR. BURKE, I'D LIKE TO TALK TO TOM ALONE

FOR A MINUTE.

DID YOU EVER SEE SO MANY BARS IN YOUR LIFE?

WELL, I GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY CALL IT A JAIL.

I'VE BEEN FREE ALL MY LIFE, JOHN.

I KNOW THAT.

LOOK, IT'S DAMN IMPORTANT

YOU DON'T TRY TO BREAK OUT OF HERE.

I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT,

BUT IT'S JUST ADMITTING YOUR GUILT

IF YOU TRY.

CHRIST, I CAN SEE THOSE HILLS OVER THERE,

BUT I CAN'T TOUCH THEM.

COWBOYS.

SCHOOLTEACHERS.

THEY SURE ARE GOOD COMPANY.

YES, BUT, UH... DO YOU CARE FOR ME?

HUH?

DO YOU CARE FOR ME?

THAT HORSE OVER THERE IS THE ONLY THING

I'VE OWNED FOR A LONG TIME.

HE THINKS THE WORLD OF ME,

AND I'VE NEVER EVEN GIVEN HIM A NAME.

WAS HE GOOD COMPANY?

YEAH.

DO YOU CARE FOR HIM?

YES, I DO.

TOM, YOU IDIOT!

YEAH, I KNOW. I KNOW.

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR TOOTH THERE?

CHIPPED IT.

HOW'D YOU DO THAT?

RIDING HORSES.

I'VE BEEN RIDING ALL MY LIFE.

HA HA HA!

[GUNSHOT]

GET DOWN!

GET DRESSED.

Sam: TOM?

HEY, HOW ABOUT GIVING ME BACK

THOSE INDIAN CHARMS OF MINE?

THEY'RE JUST SENTIMENTAL VALUE,

NOTHING MORE.

EARL, GET TOM'S INDIAN STUFF

AND BRING IT UP HERE, WILL YOU?

ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT?

WELL, MY RIFLE.

NO.

HOW ABOUT A NICE FAST HORSE?

NO.

YOU GETTING ALL CHOKY SEEING ME BEHIND BARS?

GODDAMN YOU, TOM.

TOM, WHAT ARE THESE BUTTONS FOR?

JUST LUCKY.

THE PAPER SAID THEY'RE CHARMS.

YEAH, THEY ARE.

SAID YOU BELIEVED IN THEM.

I DO.

SHOW ME HOW TO WORK THEM.

SOMEDAY. WHO ARE THOSE FELLOWS OUT THERE

WITH THOSE RIFLES?

THAT'S THE NATIONAL GUARD.

PAPER SAID THEY DIDN'T THINK

WE COULD HOLD YOU IN THIS JAIL.

THEY GOT KIND OF PERSONAL ABOUT IT.

Sam: OPEN THIS THING UP, EARL.

LET US IN.

JOHN COBLE'S HERE TO SEE TOM.

HERE YOU GO, TOM.

JOHN BROUGHT YOU A SUIT TO WEAR AT THE TRIAL.

ALL RIGHT, YOU FELLOWS CAN HAVE ABOUT 10 MINUTES.

COME ON, EARL.

TOM, IT'S REAL IMPORTANT

THAT YOU LET BURKE GUIDE YOU IN COURT--

AND YOU BE AS CLOSED-MOUTHED AS YOU CAN

AROUND THAT PROSECUTING ATTORNEY.

WHO IS HE?

HIS NAME'S WALTER STOLL. HE'S EFFECTIVE.

THEY SAY HE'S RUNNING FOR OFFICE AGAIN

AND THIS TRIAL WILL BE

KIND OF A SHOWGROUND FOR HIM.

IF HE CONVICTS YOU, HE'LL BE A BIG HERO.

HE NEEDS TO HANG YOU TO GET ELECTED.

I'M SORRY I GOT YOU INTO THIS.

YOU COULD HAVE BEEN RIDING

RIGHT THROUGH THIS TWO-BIT TOWN.

PEOPLE BEEN TRYING TO KILL ME

ALL MY LIFE, JOHN.

WELL, I GOT TO TELL YOU SOMETHING.

I KNEW THE ASSOCIATION WANTED TO GET RID OF YOU,

'CAUSE THEY TOLD ME,

BUT I JUST DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

THEY...I DIDN'T KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE--

THE NOLT BOY

OR HOW IT HAPPENED, BUT...

WHO THE HELL COULD HAVE DONE SUCH A THING?

BUT I KNOW ONE THING...

YOU NEVER KILLED THAT KID.

LISTEN, I FIGURE FOLKS WOULD HAVE TO

DO SOMETHING ABOUT ME SOONER OR LATER--

FRONTIER CLOSED AND ALL.

HELL, I NEVER KNEW ANYBODY TO DO ANYTHING

BUT JUST KILLING AND GETTING KILLED.

AFTER A WHILE, IT'S ALL YOU KNOW.

NOW LISTEN.

IF IT ALL GOES WRONG IN THERE FOR ME,

I KNOW YOU'RE MY FRIEND, JOHN,

AND I KNOW THAT YOU CARE ABOUT ME.

HMM?

NOW SIT DOWN,

AND I'LL WHIP YOUR ASS AT CHECKERS.

[PEOPLE TALKING]

HOW ARE YOU?

IT'S A LOVELY DAY FOR A TRIAL.

GOOD DAY.

THAT'S FINE, TOM.

Sam: TOM, YOU CAN STEP UP

TO THE COUNSEL'S TABLE HERE.

EARL, BACK OVER HERE.

YOU BOYS, SPLIT UP.

[GAVEL BANGS]

Bailiff: THE HONORABLE JUDGE SCOTT.

THIS COURT IS NOW IN SESSION.

Stoll: MR. OHNHOUSE,

YOU WERE IN THE NEXT ROOM AT THE TIME

UNDER THE ORDERS OF MARSHAL BELLE,

AND YOU LISTENED VERY CAREFULLY

TO THE CONVERSATION BETWEEN MARSHAL BELLE

AND MR. HORN, IS THAT CORRECT?

WELL...

YES.

WILL YOU TELL THE COURT

EXACTLY WHAT YOU TOOK DOWN AT THAT TIME?

THE LAST THING MR. HORN SAID

BEFORE LEAVING JOE BELLE'S OFFICE WAS,

"WHEN I SHOT THAT KID, IT WAS THE BEST SHOT I EVER MADE

AND THE DIRTIEST TRICK I EVER DID."

[SPECTATORS TALKING]

I WANT ORDER IN THIS COURTROOM!

YOUR WITNESS.

Burke: NO QUESTIONS.

Judge: YOU MAY STEP DOWN.

THE PROSECUTION CALLS MR. TOM HORN.

Judge: DO YOU SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH,

THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH,

SO HELP YOU GOD?

DID YOU LISTEN CAREFULLY

TO THE CONTENTS OF THE TRANSCRIPTION

AS READ BY MR. OHNHOUSE TO THE COURT?

YES, I DID.

THEN YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A RECORD

OF YOUR CONVERSATION WITH MARSHAL BELLE?

WELL, IT WAS "MR. HORN SAID THIS"

AND "MR. BELLE SAID THAT."

I DON'T FOLLOW.

WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET YOU TO UNDERSTAND

IS THAT THAT WAS A CONVERSATION

BETWEEN ME AND JOE BELLE.

I UNDERSTOOD THAT. DO YOU?

YES, I DO.

DO YOU CONSIDER IT

AN ACCURATE TRANSCRIPTION

OF THAT CONVERSATION?

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO ASK THAT FELLOW

THAT WROTE IT DOWN.

I DON'T KNOW HOW GOOD HE WAS AT IT.

CAN YOU--CAN YOU OFFER US AN OPINION?

WHAT DID YOU SAY YOUR NAME WAS?

WALTER STOLL.

I'M PROSECUTING YOU FOR MURDER.

WELL, MR. STOLL,

I WAS JUST A LITTLE DRUNK.

Stoll: WHY?

BECAUSE I'D BEEN DRINKING.

[LAUGHTER]

WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM NOW?

I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND YOU.

WELL, WE'RE TRYING YOU FOR MURDER,

FOR A CAPITAL OFFENSE.

SO FAR, NO ONE HAS HAD MUCH SUCCESS

IN GETTING YOUR ATTENTION.

WELL, I... I BEEN IN JAIL.

YOU'VE BEEN IN JAIL.

WHAT HAS THAT GOT TO DO

WITH YOUR LACKADAISICAL RESPONSE

TO THE QUESTIONS OF THE COURT?

I'M A LITTLE BORED.

WHAT PROSECUTOR STOLL

IS TRYING TO APPRISE YOU OF, MR. HORN,

IS THAT WE'RE TRYING TO DECIDE

WHETHER OR NOT YOU'RE GUILTY OF A CRIME

FOR WHICH YOU SHOULD BE HUNG.

YOU'RE GOING TO DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.

DO YOU OBJECT

TO THE ASSERTION OF MARSHAL BELLE

THAT YOU...KILLED JIMMY NOLT?

THAT WAS YOUR REPLY

IN THE TRANSCRIBED CONVERSATION.

MR. HORN?

DID ANYBODY SEE ME KILL THAT KID?

THERE WERE NOT, AND YOU KNOW IT,

ANY WITNESSES.

I THINK WHAT THE PROSECUTOR

IS TRYING TO SAY TO YOU, MR. HORN,

IS THAT WE WOULD KEENLY LIKE

TO HAVE YOU REPLY SPECIFICALLY

TO THE ACCUSATION THAT YOU KILLED THIS BOY.

YOU WANT ME TO SAY

WHETHER I DID OR I DIDN'T DO IT?

WELL, IN EFFECT, YES,

ALTHOUGH A PLEA OF INNOCENCE HAS BEEN ENTERED.

I'M NOT GONNA GIVE YOU THE SATISFACTION.

NOW, WHETHER YOU OR STOLL

OR THAT SOLD-OUT,

SON-OF-A-BITCHING MARSHAL JOE BELLE

WANT TO SEE ME GUILTY, WELL, YOU GO RIGHT AHEAD,

BUT I'M NOT GONNA GIVE YOU ANY MORE SATISFACTION

THAN I HAVE TO.

NOW, WHETHER YOU SHOOT ME OR HANG ME

OR TAKE MY RIFLE OR MY HORSE,

ONE REASON'S AS GOOD AS ANOTHER.

AND I BELIEVE THAT. I DO.

THAT'S MY LAST WORD ON THIS MATTER.

Man: YOU TELL THEM, TOM!

[GAVEL POUNDS]

Judge: NOW, I WANT ORDER IN THIS COURT!

IN THE INTEREST OF A FAIR TRIAL,

I'M GOING TO SUGGEST

THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT OUR PROCEEDINGS

WHICH SEEM TO ELUDE MR. HORN HERE.

BUT FORGIVINGLY, I'M GOING TO SUGGEST

THAT HIS LIFE IN THE LAWLESS PARTS OF OUR COUNTRY

HAVE LEFT HIM ENTIRELY UNFAMILIAR

WITH THE PROCESSES OF THE LAW.

AND I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT SOMEONE

WHO IS INTERESTED IN HIS WELFARE

EDUCATE HIM IN OUR WAYS.

I'M NOT SURE THAT IT'S NECESSARY

TO POINT OUT THAT IT IS HIS LIFE

WHICH IS IN QUESTION HERE.

TOM?

COLD ONE TONIGHT.

HEY, EARL?

LISTEN, I BEEN DOWN ON MY LUCK LATELY,

AND I WANT TO TRY TO REVIVE IT.

THIS MAY SOUND KIND OF OFF-CENTER TO YOU,

BUT I WANT TO TAKE MY INDIAN CHARMS

AND SET THEM UNDER MY BUNK TONIGHT,

SO WHEN YOU COME IN THE MORNING

TO GIVE ME MY BREAKFAST,

I'D APPRECIATE IT

IF YOU DIDN'T LOOK AT THEM.

I'LL PROBABLY BE ASLEEP

BECAUSE I'LL BE UP

MOST OF THE NIGHT THINKING.

SURE, TOM.

TWO BOURBONS.

WHAT I'M TRYING TO PROVE, PHILIP,

IS THAT CRIMINALS LIKE TOM HORN

ARE NOT IMMUNE TO PROSECUTION.

THE NEWSPAPERS

AND THE LEGAL PROFESSION

ARE GOING TO SET THINGS STRAIGHT

IN THIS COUNTRY.

AND OUR SYSTEM OF JUSTICE

ENSURES THAT KILLERS LIKE TOM HORN

GET EXACTLY WHAT THEY DESERVE,

AND I'M GOING TO SEE THAT IT HAPPENS.

[SLAMS GLASS ON TABLE]

[DOOR OPENS]

[HORSE WHINNIES]

[BELL RINGING]

WHERE ARE THE RIFLES IN HERE?

THE SHERIFF SAID

WE CAN'T KEEP THEM IN HERE NO LONGER.

YOU GOT A GUN?

NO. YOU GOING TO KILL ME?

YOU AND I ARE WALKING OUT OF HERE,

AND YOU'RE GOING TO SMILE. NOW, SMILE! SMILE!

KEEP SMILING. SMILE.

LISTEN. I GOT A .41 CALIBER IN YOUR BACK.

[BELL RINGING]

WHOA!

OH!

[HORSE NEIGHS]

[HORSE NEIGHS]

YOU DAMN FOOLS!

WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO, KILL HIM?

SHOOT!

YOU DAMN FOOLS!

[GAVEL POUNDS]

Judge: HAS THE JURY ARRIVED AT A VERDICT?

Foreman: YES, WE HAVE, YOUR HONOR.

THE JURY FINDS THE DEFENDANT,

TOM HORN, GUILTY.

THE COURT FINDS YOU GUILTY OF MURDER AS CHARGED.

YOU ARE SENTENCED TO BE HANGED

BY THE NECK UNTIL DEAD

BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 8 A.M. AND 9 A.M.

ON NOVEMBER 20, 1903.

MAY THE LORD HAVE MERCY ON YOUR SOUL.

SOMEDAY YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY

FOR YOUR WAY OF LIFE, TOM.

YOU'RE A BAD MAN, AND I KNOW IT.

AND IF I LET YOU TALK ME OUT OF IT,

I'LL BE LOST FOREVER.

AND MY ADVENTURES IN THIS LIFE

WON'T MEAN ANYTHING...

BECAUSE YOU WILL HAVE SEDUCED MY SOUL

AND DRAWN ME INTO YOUR WORLD.

GOOD-BYE, TOM.

[DOOR OPENS]

HAS HIS WEIGHT BEEN VARYING MUCH

HERE IN THE JAIL?

I DON'T BELIEVE SO. IT STAYED ABOUT THE SAME.

DO YOU KNOW HOW TALL HE IS?

I AIN'T SURE.

ALL RIGHT, TOM. STEP OUT.

UP ON THE SCALES.

WHAT'S THIS FOR?

I'M DESIGNING YOUR GALLOWS, MR. HORN.

I'VE GOT TO GET THE WEIGHTS EXACTLY RIGHT.

IF THIS THING WORKS THE WAY I DESIGNED IT,

YOU SHOULD FALL ABSOLUTELY STRAIGHT, STOP,

AND MAKE A HALF-TURN TO THE RIGHT.

WILL I BE ALIVE OR DEAD?

WHEN?

WHEN I MAKE THAT HALF-TURN TO THE RIGHT.

YOU SHOULD BE DEAD.

NOBODY WANTS TO SPRING THE TRAP ON YOU, TOM.

MR. JULIAN HERE

IS DESIGNING SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR US.

THE TRAP IS WATER-OPERATED.

CHRIST, YOU AIN'T GOING TO DROWN ME, ARE YOU?

NO. YOU JUST STEP ONTO THE PLATFORM,

AND YOUR WEIGHT WILL ACTIVATE A WATER VALVE

THAT FINALLY SPRINGS THE TRAP.

MM-HMM.

Sam: ALL RIGHT. STEP BACK INSIDE.

DO I SPRING THAT TRAP MYSELF?

Julian: EXACTLY.

MAKES ME FEEL LIKE

I'M COMMITTING SUICIDE.

YOU SUPPOSE THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING

ALL THESE YEARS, SAM?

DON'T ASK ME THAT, TOM.

HERE. BRING THE SCALES.

COME ON, MR. JULIAN.

[DOOR CLOSES]

Sam: TOM, IT'S TIME.

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO STRAP YOU UP, TOM.

EARL, I'M SORRY

I BUSTED YOUR HEAD SO HARD AGAINST THOSE BARS.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT, TOM.

OH, TOM...THIS IS FATHER J.P. BROWN.

HOW DO YOU DO?

FINE, TOM. AND YOU?

HOW LONG YOU HAD THAT BIBLE?

28 YEARS.

GOT HER ABOUT BUCKED OUT YET?

OH, I THINK SO.

YOU READY?

YEAH.

I UNDERSTAND

YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED, SON.

YES, I AM, MR. HORN.

WELL, YOU TAKE GOOD CARE OF HER, NOW.

Sam: RIGHT THERE, TOM.

TOM...

KEEP YOUR NERVE, SAM,

BECAUSE I'M GOING TO KEEP MINE.

ALL RIGHT, TOM. S-STEP BACK ON THE TRAP.

THERE.

SAM, I'VE NEVER SEEN

SUCH A PASTY-FACED BUNCH OF SHERIFFS IN MY LIFE.
