[horse whinnies in distance]

[door opens]

-Hold up! -Yes, sir.

My name is Jamie Wagner. I'm looking for work.

You sure look in funny places.

-You run away from home, boy? -No, sir.

Climb down, if you want. Food's cooking.

[door closes]

Mister… maybe I'd better be pushing on, you know.

I got to be somewheres.

Ain't no somewheres around here to go to.

I gotta get at Nancher…

I got to be at the Nash Ranch.

Too far. You'll not make it tonight.

They expecting you?

No, sir.

Nobody sits down to eat around here without he tends the stock.

You'll find hay and a lamp in the barn.

You set fire to the place, and I'll roast you over the ashes.

Roast me?

That's a pure Indian thing.

-[horse whinnies] -Well, he don't scare me…

[sighs]

…much.

[horse whinnies]

Don't worry, I don't eat kids like you.

Not when I got a good side of beef hangin' outside.

If you're still scared of me, boy, you can spread your blanket in the shed.

Hell of a lot warmer in here, though.

I'm sorry, sir.

I answer to Chino.

Yes, sir.

Pretty near got stomped to death by a bronc once.

Never did learn nothin' by it, though. Still work at the same fool trade.

You ever work horses?

No, sir.

Back. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Attaboy. Easy.

Back, back.

Back, back, back.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

-Attaboy. -[horse whinnies]

Back, back, back.

Whoa, whoa.

Back, back, whoa.

Attaboy. Back.

[neighs]

[Chino] Whoa!

Easy.

-Whoa. -[neighs]

Attaboy.

[Jamie] Good morning.

You're late gettin' started, ain't you, kid?

I have to clean up.

Boy, I can't pay you nothing for the work you're doin'.

Just earning my way for last night's bed and board.

Boy, if you wanna leave your horse rest a day,

I'll lend you a mount and you can ride off with me.

-I gotta fetch in a mare. -Yes, sir.

This here's Buck.

Mount him.

[horse whinnies]

Are you afraid of old Buck?

No, sir.

Well, then ease up.

Ride him around a bit.

[instrumental music playing]

[Chino] Well, I see you didn't come off.

He's a real gentle horse.

Old Buck, gentle?

He's about as gentle as he wants to be. That horse is pure mustang, boy.

[Jamie] He seems to ride gentle for me.

Boy, what day is this?

[Jamie] Wednesday.

I clean forgot about that buyer.

I gotta drive these horses to town.

Can I help?

Don't need it.

I'd sure like to ride Buck some more.

Well, just stay out of the way.

[instrumental music playing]

[horse whinnies]

$200, Chino. Right?

[dogs bark distantly]

[in Spanish] Buenos días, Indio.

[man] Hey! Hey! Hey!

Whoa!

Whoa!

[greeting in Spanish]

I can read your dirty mind, Indio.

[grunting]

[man] Stop it!

[Maral] Ricardo.

If you please, Mr. Jensen.

Ricardo.

Thank you.

Howdy, Lemoine.

Jesus. You stay in town for five minutes--

-Oh, you didn't hear what he said? -No.

Who's this?

He's a stray. Name's Jamie.

[Lemoine] Uh-huh…

Lemoine, keep this for me till morning, will you?

[Lemoine] Stayin' in town tonight?

Yeah, I'm tired, and feel kind of thirsty.

Boy,

take the horses to the livery stable and buy yourself a decent meal.

I'll be at the Eagle Bar.

Don't make no more trouble, Chino.

I'll do my best. At least I don't come to town often.

Town couldn't take it often. Neither could you.

You work for him?

Sort of.

You stay with Chino, I don't make trouble.

In this territory, there's a law for a boy that don't take care of himself.

I can take care of myself.

[Pete] Oh, no, no, no, Chino, no.

No, please, no. No, not here.

No, I just got through fixing it up from the other side.

No, there are other bars in town.

Hell, Pete, there's nobody here now.

Please, please take the bottle and take it some other place, yeah?

-I'll just sit over there and drink it. -Yeah.

[Pete] Good morning, gentlemen.

Guess I will drink it someplace else.

[all grunting and groaning]

Damn it, Chino!

You leave now!

This is for damages.

-I came in for a bottle, Pete… -Oh, yeah.

-What happened, Chino? -[Chino] We're going back to the ranch.

Good thing I was here to help with the horses.

I've taken those horses to town by myself a hundred times

without any trouble, but you didn't help out too badly.

Now, to get to the Nash Ranch, you go right down this here canyon.

In about a mile, you come to a fork. Take the left one.

And after a while, you'll see some wagon tracks.

You follow 'em, take you right there.

You know, Chino,

I could grain the horses, clean the stables, too.

Give you more time for the important work.

Winter's comin'.

You're gonna need a lot of wood. And I could chop kindling.

[horse whinnies]

[Chino] Boy?

I think maybe that horse of yours could do with another day's rest.

What do you think?

Yes, sir!

Whoa, now, whoa. Hold that horse down.

I'm not in the mood for games.

You wanna do some work, you put that saddle back on Buck.

[Jamie] What's this mare you're after?

[Chino] Broodmare carrying a late foal.

I want to get her back before she drops it.

-Do you do that with all your mares? -Hell, no. This one's something special.

Is she a mustang?

Pure through.

All iron and guts, and shaped like a barb.

[horse galloping]

Boy! You ought to catch that one!

That's Flag. He's my fortune. Raised him from a colt.

[Jamie gasps]

What a beautiful horse.

[Chino] I got papers on him go all the way back to England.

Probably has his mares bunched back there.

You wanna get a look at 'em, go up on that ridge, but take it easy.

You might spook 'em. They're wild, and shy of strangers.

[horses neighing]

[instrumental music playing]

[horse whinnies]

[Chino] Boy, the mare's not here! I'm gonna try and track her down.

[horse grunting]

[foal whinnies]

Is it all right?

Yeah. It's a he.

Got me a fine stud.

He acts as if you're its mother.

I guess I'm gonna have to be.

She's had a bad accident.

[groans]

[horse whinnies]

[gun cocking]

[gun fires]

[foal whinnies]

[squeals]

Get your pillow and put it right in front of the stove here.

Here you are, boy, that's gonna be your bed.

Get a fire going, heat up some water.

What do you think of "Banner"?

I'm gonna name him Banner.

Flag was his sire, and Banner's a good name.

That is a good name.

There you go, my boy.

I got him.

Now, he don't need no more mama than that.

You sure don't look like the mama sort.

I guess not.

Took me three years to pay for Flag.

The blood that's in this foal is everything I worked for.

Kinda makes up for a lotta hard times, in a lotta towns where I wasn't welcome.

I'll be his mama.

But you tell anybody that, and I'll cut your ears off at the roots.

[instrumental music playing]

[woman in Spanish] Gracias.

I'm looking for Maral.

I'm Catherine Maral. Can I help you? Or would you like some coffee and wait?

You his wife?

No, I'm his sister.

Sure don't sound like him.

-Well, Mr… -Valdez.

Mr. Valdez, I'm his half-sister.

Father married twice, and my mother was English.

Like they say, you can always pick your friends

but you can't pick your relatives.

What do you have against my brother?

[Maral] Who is here?

[Chino] You put up that fence?

Yes. Why?

[Chino] One of my mares cut herself to pieces on that goddamn wire.

I had to shoot her.

In the spring, I'm moving over 1,000 head of cattle to new graze.

And I wanted it enclosed.

The wire cuts me off from the wild horse range.

That's my fence on my land.

That land is open range.

Not according to the latest survey.

The Maral land grant extends to around 15 miles north of here!

If you don't like it,

I will give you a fair price for your horses and equipment!

You understand?

-That true, what he says about the survey? -Yes, I'm afraid it is.

Mr. Valdez?

-Could I come out and look at your horses? -What?

Your horses, can I come out and look at them?

[Chino] What for?

I'd like to ride while I'm here, and yours are the best.

I'd like to buy one.

You come out, I'll have one for you.

[door closes]

[instrumental music playing]

-Hey, hey… -[clicks tongue]

Good.

[horse whinnies]

Good morning, Mr. Valdez. I'm ready.

Yeah, I can see that.

And I can see you brought a nurse with you.

[door creaks shut]

[signals the horse]

[Chino] Whoa, whoa, whoa.

[Catherine] She's such a beautiful horse.

Her name is Paloma.

[Catherine] When can I ride her?

Oh, she's been out on the range for about a month. I'm gonna have to--

Now, what the hell is that?

That's a side saddle.

A side saddle?

You mean to tell me you're gonna put that on the side of a horse? [chuckles]

No, it goes on the back of a horse.

My right leg goes around that hook and my left one comes up against that one.

I can ride beautifully like that. You'll see.

[Chino] No, not on one of my horses you can't.

But I wear a skirt. How else can I ride?

I can loan you a saddle, but the clothes are your trouble.

[horse neighing]

Thank you, Mr. Valdez.

Goodbye. I'll think of a way to do this properly.

-Goodbye, Jamie. -[Jamie] Bye, ma'am.

Harris.

She shouldn't say words like that.

What words?

Well, she said, uh…"legs."

Legs?

What's wrong with legs? She's got 'em, ain't she?

I reckon.

It's just not a word that a high-class, decent-trained lady like her should use.

Why not?

They're not supposed to. Isn't considered proper.

And a man should be awful careful what he says around ladies, too.

Hell. How you gonna learn a lady how to ride a horse

if you can't tell her what to do with her legs, or where to put her hands?

I don't know.

I guess you can say "hands," all right.

It's the parts they cover up you can't talk about.

Yeah, but never paid much mind to women, anyways.

I got more important things to think on.

-You do? -Ain't you?

Oh, yeah.

But I think about women every now and then.

Not me, I ain't never gonna get mixed up with womenfolk.

Well, what a man says and what a man does,

doesn't always end up to be the same thing.

Let's go. We got work to do.

When I get set on this hammerhead, jerk the gate open.

Yes, sir.

[horse whinnies]

[horse whinnies wildly]

-Chino! -[groans]

[neighing]

[whipping, slashing]

Me and that damn Black never did get along.

You gonna bust him?

You know what that means, bustin' a horse?

Show him you can't be thrown, right?

No, that ain't all of it.

Busting a horse means just exactly that. You bust him.

And that takes all the spunk out of a horse. And it breaks him.

And I ain't about to break a Valdez horse.

I guess me and that Black… we just don't like each other.

You got scars all over you, don't you? Where'd you get that one on your back?

If I told you, I suppose you'd believe me?

Yes, I would.

That's a hell of a thing to say, boy.

How do you know what it is I'm gonna tell you?

[groans]

If you said it, I'd know it was so.

Only a damn fool makes up his mind about a thing before he knows what it is.

Anyways…

bunch of Indians stole my horses once.

I went along and stole them back.

And while they was chasing me, I came off of my horse

and got run over.

Why didn't they kill you?

Hell, boy, they was my friends.

[man] Whoa!

-[Catherine] Good morning. -She's ready for you.

I've been working the kinks out of her for the last couple of hours.

Well, mount up.

You won't be needing that.

Well, I'll be damned. You made yourself a pair of pants.

Mr. Valdez, would you please help me up?

[Catherine exclaims]

Don't know why anyone would ride a horse when they can't get on one.

Take her around then.

[Catherine clicks tongue]

Ease up!

Miss Maral, you ain't a wood Indian,

and you ain't a sack of potatoes neither.

And that's no dumb headstall-kept hack you're on, that's a Valdez horse!

You don't wanna fight her, and you don't want her packing you

like you was a bedroll either!

I do feel a little strange, sitting a horse this way.

[Chino] You look a little strange. Pull up.

Now, the first thing you gotta remember is to squeeze the horse with your…

-What do you call that? -My knee.

-What do you call that? -That's my leg.

And that?

What?

That?

That's my back.

-Those parts are all covered, ain't they? -Of course they're covered.

What would you say if I was to say "leg"?

Are you all right, Mr. Valdez?

Yeah, I'm all right.

Don't know about the boy. I'm gonna have to have a talk with him.

Now, as I was saying, you squeeze the horse with your knees,

and you put a lot of your weight in your legs. Now, try it again.

It does feel more comfortable.

[Chino] You don't look more comfortable.

Your knees, your knees.

Try to put some of that weight in your legs.

Oh, that's terrible, terrible.

You're still bouncing.

I have to bounce some.

Yeah, I guess so. You've got a lot of bouncy parts! [laughs]

I guess a woman just wasn't made for riding horses.

Mr. Valdez, you are crude, insensitive and vulgar.

You're not a man at all, you're a horse!

I'll send Cruz back to pick up Paloma.

Cruz!

Jamie, you might still have it on your mind

to find a job with one of the other ranchers around here.

But you got to know, hiring season's over.

I'm sort of used to having you around.

I'd like to keep you on.

I'll pay you $10 a month.

-$10? -Ain't that enough?

You'll see, Chino. I'll be worth it.

Thanks.

You know, Chino, Christmas is in only two weeks.

[Chino] Yup.

We ought to have a tree.

You know, a real Christmas tree.

-A Christmas tree? -Yeah.

Didn't your family have a tree where you come from?

Jamie, where I come from,

there weren't enough trees around to cut any down.

[sighs]

[Chino groaning]

Well, apart from that mustache, Mr. Valdez,

you even look like a horse.

Sound like one, too. Needless to say, you scrub your back like one.

Yeah?

Just turn around and get on out.

I don't think so, Mr. Valdez.

Now that I'm here, I think I'll just keep you company and have a cup of tea.

-Don't keep no tea around here. -Coffee will do.

Don't mind me, Mr. Valdez. I've seen horses wallow in water before.

Continue with your bath.

It looks like such fun.

That a fact? Well… [clears throat]

I'm through, so if you'll just hand me that there towel.

Of course you're not through.

You didn't finish washing your back.

I think I'll help you.

[loudly] Boy! Jamie!

You're not frightened of me, are you, Mr. Valdez?

If you call me "Mr. Valdez" one more time, I'm gonna yank you in this tub with me.

[Catherine] Oh?

Well?

Well, what do I call you?

"Horse"?

[both laughing]

Miss Maral, what are you doing here?

My brother gave me a saddle for myself, and I brought it up to show you.

[Chino] Is that all?

No. I wanted to ask you something.

I'd like to continue with my riding.

But… Well, if I'm as hopeless as you say I am,

then there'd be no point in continuing, would there?

Well, now, I didn't say hopeless.

What I said was, um…

I said "terrible."

That's all right then, isn't it? You can get out of the bath.

I'll make some coffee, and we'll talk about it.

[instrumental music playing]

[whistles]

[horse whinnies]

[Catherine] That's amazing! He comes when you whistle.

[Chino] I raised that horse from a baby.

[Catherine] Do you ever ride him?

There are some horses that just weren't meant for saddle.

[horse whinnies]

[horse neighing]

[horse shrieks]

[horse groans loudly]

Let her go, Chino!

Please!

[Chino] Hell, if I do that, I'll just have to catch her again.

Please!

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Whoa, whoa.

[exclaims]

I'm gonna have to do my work without bringing you along.

I'm very sorry, Chino.

Can't understand why you get so upset.

I was gonna turn her loose and mind my knot, anyhow.

I couldn't stand to see her so frightened.

I felt as if it were me.

You ain't got any of your brother in you at all.

I guess if you had, I wouldn't have all this feeling for you.

Let's go.

[horse whinnies]

[Catherine exclaims]

No!

[horse neighs]

[man whistles]

[man exclaiming]

[horse whinnies]

Nice foal.

Very fine-looking.

First one, huh?

First one born on this range.

Your roots begin to take hold.

Yes, it's coming along.

The wild horseman, making himself a home.

Pretty soon, you'll have curtains in your window.

Do you like it here?

Well, it's got good grass, good water.

-Get to the point, Maral. -All right.

Listen very carefully.

You are not ever to see my sister again.

-What's she got to say about all this? -Nothing. I say it!

You try to see her again, I'll burn your place down and run you out.

If you're through talking, I got work to do.

Chino, as long as you're on my land, you do as I say!

You go near my sister again, I will finish you!

[in Spanish] Vamonos!

Ha!

[whistles]

[Jamie clicks tongue]

Come here, girl.

That's a girl.

Come here.

Come here. Come here, girl.

[Jamie clicks his tongue]

Come here, girl.

Come here, come here.

Come here, girl.

Come here, come here. Come here, girl.

[horse whinnies]

[whinnies softly]

-[Jamie] Come here, girl. That's a girl. -[whinnies]

[whinnies aloud]

[clicks tongue]

Come here, girl.

Good horse.

Boy?

We got some packing to do. We're gonna take a trip.

[door opens]

[grunts]

[horse whinnies]

[Chino] Black!

You take good care of your ladies now!

[Chino] That's the way the Indians bury their dead.

They'd rather be close to the sun than have dirt thrown on their faces.

[signals]

[man signals back]

[Chino] You take these horses off to the side. Hurry, now.

[men exclaiming, laughing]

[signals]

[men signal back]

-[signals] -[men signal back]

[distant galloping]

[shouting]

[exclaims]

[men laughing]

[speaking other language]

[in Spanish] Where are you going?

[Chino] Jamie.

Jamie.

[all] Jamie.

That there is Little Bear.

I scalp him every time, but he never gives up trying.

[instrumental music playing]

[horses whinnying]

[speaking other language]

Jamie.

[man] Ah, Jamie.

Don't let it bother you none. They don't see yellow hair much.

Some of them even think it's good luck.

When they get the pack off the horse, you picket them.

I got work to do.

[dog barking in distance]

[people chattering indistinctly]

[instrumental music playing]

Oh…

Me… Jamie.

-Jamie. -Yeah.

What's your name?

Yeah, it's a good name.

Very nice.

Very nice. Good.

Want to trade? Good knife.

Two blades.

Trade.

You understand?

Trade.

[speaking other language]

[men snoring]

[dog howling in distance]

[bangs at tent]

[Chino] Yeah?

Come on in, boy.

I couldn't get to sleep over there.

I thought Indians were supposed to be quiet.

Take that there bunk.

Thanks.

Chino, were these the Indians that run over you that time?

Yeah, very same ones. I used to live with them.

The way that happened, a long time ago, coming north from Texas,

searching for a place, the way you are doing now.

Was coming through this rough country, and fell in with a band of Cheyenne.

The way they invited me to stay, I couldn't do otherwise.

You mean they captured you?

Well, ain't nobody knew that for certain.

Anyhow, I liked the free way they lived. So I stayed on and we became friends.

Why did you leave?

Jamie, these Indians are dying.

Won't be long, there'll not be many left.

Nor men like me.

Anyways, I wanted a place of my own, and I got one now.

I also got a problem.

I'm up here to kinda think things out.

Chino? How long are we gonna stay?

We'll leave first thing in the morning.

[distant whooshing]

Thanks.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Moccasins.

Look like moccasins.

Well… I traded my Barlow knife, you know.

The… The good one I had.

It was this Indian girl that made them.

Come out here to grow up, didn't you, Jamie?

Yes, sir.

And you're growing up, ain't you?

Yes, sir.

Wear them.

-Here's your tree. -Gosh!

You get cleaned up now. We're going into town.

The Christ child's about to be born.

[in Spanish] I only ask you, my love…

For just one night, the queen of heaven.

My wife Mary, the queen of heaven,

will be mother of the divine word.

Is that you, Joseph?

Your wife is Mary.

Come in , pilgrims, I did not know it was you.

[continue singing]

[man singing a Spanish song]

Why don't you go and make yourself some friends?

-[people speaking indistinctly] -[children laughing]

We ain't got much time.

-Your brother came to the ranch to see me. -I know, Chino.

-He warned me to stay away from you. -I don't care.

Catherine… I've been thinking.

[people laughing]

And I made up my mind that…

You and me ought to get married.

Oh, Chino!

[man] I'll take the other door.

I'll talk to the priest, take care of everything.

You better leave now.

See you in the church, morning after Christmas.

[grunts]

[groans]

[people cheering]

[objects clattering]

[gun fires]

[Lemoine] All right, that's it! Everybody to jail!

Boy, go back to the ranch and take care of things.

You won't see Chino for a while.

[horse whinnies]

[horse whinnies in the distance]

[Jamie] Chino!

Sheriff let me out for Christmas.

Well, I'll be damned.

I've seen a Christmas tree or two in my time, but that's the prettiest.

Got something for you.

Made it myself.

That's a fine piece of work, Jamie.

Got something for you, too.

Boy, this is 10 times better than my last Barlow knife.

This turned out to be a good Christmas.

I'll bet it's even better than the one Maral's got,

even though he's got all that money, and big house and everything.

Well, this house ain't big, Jamie, but it's solid.

And I built it myself, too.

-But now that I'm gonna get married-- -Married?

Yup.

I'm gonna marry Catherine, Jamie.

About time I raised a family as well as horses.

You're gonna be going over Maral's to live.

What would I do a thing like that for?

-Well, you're not gonna bring her here. -Why, sure.

A woman goes where her man is. I know the place needs fixin' up.

All's I gotta do is add a room or two off the bedroom.

Then I'll get me one of them big Franklin stoves,

so's that she can do some bakin' as well as cookin'.

Put a couple of hide rugs down on the floor.

Of course, I need a new bed.

And so's that she won't have to boil her clothes,

she can use this trough here.

I'll get her a new washin' board,

and one of them clothes wringers.

I guess I better go put Macho in the stable.

[door creaks]

[footsteps approaching]

-[Maral] Where's Chino? -I'm waiting for him.

Go home, Catherine. You are not to marry him.

You're just my brother. You can't tell me what to do.

If you insist, I will kill him.

So it's your choice.

[sobs]

[mumbles]

But you remember, in the future, my life is my own.

[screeches to a halt]

[in Spanish] Father?

[thuds]

You have to forgive me, Father.

[door creaks]

[slashes]

[Maral] Enough.

If I see you on my land after today, I won't stop the whip until you're dead.

Chino!

[Maral] Let's go!

I'll get the sheriff! I'll get the doctor!

Just help me get to the wagon.

[wheels rattling]

[Jamie] Little Bear!

Little Bear!

Little Bear!

Chino's hurt!

[men chanting]

Chino.

[chanting]

Chino.

Chino.

[chanting stops]

[gasps]

[Jamie] Chino.

What's wrong?

I thought you were dead.

I don't die that easy.

Jamie, you did the right thing, bringing me here.

You go back to the ranch and take care of things.

I'll be there.

[horse whinnies]

Chino.

[Jamie] Picked up your hat in town today.

Chino? Chino, what are you gonna do?

Well, right now, I'm gonna have a cup of coffee.

And tomorrow, we got work to do.

They say, in town, if you stay here,

they'll run you out, even kill you.

No, they won't kill me.

And I've left a lot of places in my time, Jamie,

but only when I wanted to.

She shouldn't have done that. It's not fair.

Jamie, don't say anything more about it.

That's all over.

[horse whinnies]

[horse whinnies in distance]

[horse continues whinnying]

Chino, what is it?

[Chino] Something's wrong.

[horse whinnies]

[man] That's the first one, Injun! Your stud horse is next!

[gallops away]

Why, Chino?

Why?

[Chino] You go on back. Get your stuff packed.

[faint galloping]

There's the stud!

[guns cocking]

Let's go get him!

[gun firing]

[gun cocking]

[men grunting]

[in Spanish] Come, come!

[grunts]

[groaning]

[inaudible]

Take him.

[gun firing]

[gun cocking]

[gunshot]

-[gunshot] -[man groans]

[horses whinnying]

[gunshot]

He's shootin' his horses!

No, he's spooking them.

[whinnies]

[gun cocking]

If he doesn't keep them, nobody does.

[Chino] Maral?

I'm leavin'!

Just say the word, and he's a dead man.

[guns cocking]

Put your guns down.

It's over.

[whistles]

[Chino sighs]

Jamie, you can have Buck.

But keep in mind, he's a Valdez horse.

If you're leaving, I wanna go with you.

No, Jamie.

We go different ways. You got your own life.

Goodbye, Chino.
