1
00:00:31,060 --> 00:00:36,054
Roy Acuff, as you know, has been a big star
at the Opry here for quite some time.
2
00:00:36,940 --> 00:00:39,215
We have a company,
a music publishing company.
3
00:00:42,140 --> 00:00:44,574
But, yeah, I liked Hank right off.
4
00:00:45,220 --> 00:00:49,736
I think it's 'cause he didn't give a darn
if you liked him or not.
5
00:00:57,020 --> 00:01:01,536
I tried so hard, my dear
6
00:01:01,620 --> 00:01:07,855
To show that you're my every dream
7
00:01:09,580 --> 00:01:15,052
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
8
00:01:15,820 --> 00:01:20,211
Is just some evil scheme
9
00:01:21,940 --> 00:01:26,775
A memory from your lonesome past
10
00:01:27,740 --> 00:01:33,258
Keeps us so far apart
11
00:01:34,940 --> 00:01:40,412
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
12
00:01:41,780 --> 00:01:47,935
And melt your cold, cold heart
13
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:59,411
Another love before my time
14
00:02:00,140 --> 00:02:04,418
Made your heart sad and blue
15
00:02:05,980 --> 00:02:11,691
And so my heart is paying now
16
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:17,096
For things I didn't do
17
00:02:17,820 --> 00:02:23,053
In anger unkind words are said
18
00:02:24,380 --> 00:02:30,410
That made the teardrops start
19
00:02:32,340 --> 00:02:38,017
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
20
00:02:38,540 --> 00:02:44,570
And melt your cold, cold heart
21
00:03:25,340 --> 00:03:28,298
You know what ti me
I get up every morning, Hank?
22
00:03:28,380 --> 00:03:30,132
No idea, sir.
23
00:03:30,220 --> 00:03:31,369
4:45.
24
00:03:31,820 --> 00:03:33,936
Sun don't never ever beat me.
25
00:03:35,260 --> 00:03:37,615
Then know what I did at 6:15?
26
00:03:38,020 --> 00:03:39,612
Listen to my radio show?
27
00:03:39,700 --> 00:03:41,133
- On WSFA?
- Uh-huh.
28
00:03:41,220 --> 00:03:43,131
Nope. I had my breakfast.
29
00:03:44,660 --> 00:03:46,457
Well, fair enough, I guess.
30
00:03:46,540 --> 00:03:49,259
We ain't that big
or we wouldn't be singin' at that hour.
31
00:03:49,340 --> 00:03:50,819
Nah, I was just kidding around.
32
00:03:50,900 --> 00:03:52,660
I listen to your program
every now and then.
33
00:03:52,700 --> 00:03:53,700
- You do?
- Yeah.
34
00:03:53,780 --> 00:03:55,476
- What do you think?
- That's pretty good stuff.
35
00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:57,058
Well, pretty fair.
36
00:03:58,740 --> 00:03:59,855
All right, now.
37
00:03:59,940 --> 00:04:03,091
Just a couple more
little Justice of the Peace details.
38
00:04:03,540 --> 00:04:06,850
So, this is your license
and divorce decree, Miss Guy?
39
00:04:06,940 --> 00:04:08,134
Well, I'm Miss Sheppard now.
40
00:04:08,220 --> 00:04:10,017
Guy was Erksine's surname.
41
00:04:10,100 --> 00:04:12,534
But these divorce papers
are in order, right?
42
00:04:12,620 --> 00:04:13,814
They definitely are.
43
00:04:13,900 --> 00:04:16,175
Mr. Guy and I took care of that.
44
00:04:16,260 --> 00:04:19,058
You'll take notice that
it's been notarized as well?
45
00:04:19,140 --> 00:04:20,778
Yeah, I see that.
46
00:04:21,260 --> 00:04:24,297
- Just 10 days ago, huh?
- Yeah.
47
00:04:25,060 --> 00:04:27,290
Well, to the business at hand.
48
00:04:28,260 --> 00:04:31,889
Just because these ceilings aren't vaulted
and the windows aren't stained glass
49
00:04:31,980 --> 00:04:34,494
doesn't mean this union is any less sacred.
50
00:04:36,460 --> 00:04:38,098
Audrey Mae Sheppard,
51
00:04:38,180 --> 00:04:44,858
do you take Hiram King Hank Williams
to love and honor in all duty and service,
52
00:04:44,940 --> 00:04:48,979
to live with him and cherish him
according to the bonds of marriage?
53
00:04:49,820 --> 00:04:51,253
I sure will.
54
00:04:52,060 --> 00:04:54,574
And do you, Hiram King Hank Williams,
55
00:04:54,660 --> 00:04:58,573
have this woman, Audrey Mae Sheppard,
to be your wife?
56
00:04:58,660 --> 00:05:03,859
And will you promise faithfulness in all
love and honor and all duty and service
57
00:05:03,940 --> 00:05:07,216
to live with her
according to the bonds of marriage?
58
00:05:08,660 --> 00:05:09,888
I will.
59
00:05:10,060 --> 00:05:12,176
Then by the authority vested in me,
60
00:05:12,260 --> 00:05:14,979
from the County of Covington
in the state of Alabama,
61
00:05:15,100 --> 00:05:17,011
I declare you husband and wife.
62
00:05:17,300 --> 00:05:20,133
I've tried and I've tried
63
00:05:20,220 --> 00:05:22,450
And all night long I've cried
64
00:05:22,540 --> 00:05:26,374
But I can't get you off of my mind
65
00:05:35,140 --> 00:05:36,653
All right, folks.
66
00:05:36,740 --> 00:05:39,015
Now I'm gonna play a little tune for ya.
67
00:05:39,820 --> 00:05:42,095
It might make sense to y'all.
68
00:05:42,180 --> 00:05:47,538
Tonight or this mornin',
whatever the hell it is.
69
00:05:48,180 --> 00:05:49,818
Don, don't screw it up.
70
00:05:50,220 --> 00:05:52,575
- I'll try not to, bub.
- Let's roll.
71
00:06:23,420 --> 00:06:28,733
When you are sad and lonely
And have no place to go
72
00:06:29,580 --> 00:06:33,892
Come to see me, baby
And bring along some dough
73
00:06:34,060 --> 00:06:38,497
And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin'
74
00:06:38,780 --> 00:06:42,136
Honky tonkin', honey baby
75
00:06:42,300 --> 00:06:46,896
We 'll go honky tonkin'
'round this town...
76
00:06:48,060 --> 00:06:50,176
How much you got there, Miss Lillie?
77
00:06:50,260 --> 00:06:52,569
I'm under no obligation to you.
78
00:06:53,460 --> 00:06:55,018
Well, that goes both ways, huh?
79
00:06:55,100 --> 00:06:59,139
Call me up, sweet mama
And we'll go steppin' out...
80
00:06:59,220 --> 00:07:01,609
He's drinking like a fish tonight.
81
00:07:02,260 --> 00:07:03,693
You think so?
82
00:07:03,780 --> 00:07:06,692
Honky tonkin', honey baby
83
00:07:07,380 --> 00:07:11,339
We'll go honky tonkin' 'round this town
84
00:07:36,820 --> 00:07:38,538
Thank y'all, folks.
85
00:07:39,340 --> 00:07:45,495
Now, I'm gonna invite up here
my precious wife, Audrey.
86
00:07:46,900 --> 00:07:48,094
Audrey, get up here.
87
00:07:48,180 --> 00:07:49,329
Don't worry, Lillie.
88
00:07:49,420 --> 00:07:51,570
Hank will hand it over to me
before we even get home.
89
00:07:53,340 --> 00:07:54,773
Get up here.
90
00:07:55,980 --> 00:07:57,379
She is a hell of a singer.
91
00:07:57,460 --> 00:07:59,018
Say hi, Audrey.
92
00:07:59,500 --> 00:08:00,569
Hi.
93
00:08:01,580 --> 00:08:02,649
Hi.
94
00:08:03,780 --> 00:08:07,819
Now we're gonna sing a little song here
called Blues Come Around.
95
00:08:08,180 --> 00:08:09,613
Boys, let's roll.
96
00:08:15,780 --> 00:08:18,419
Once I was happy as I could be
97
00:08:18,500 --> 00:08:21,014
But I let a man make a fool of me
98
00:08:21,180 --> 00:08:23,899
And ever since he let me down
99
00:08:24,020 --> 00:08:27,296
The blues come around
When the sun goes down
100
00:08:28,940 --> 00:08:31,090
As long as the sun is in the sky...
101
00:08:31,180 --> 00:08:32,898
Hey, Williams!
102
00:08:32,980 --> 00:08:34,740
You sound like a billy goat,
and so does she.
103
00:08:34,820 --> 00:08:36,048
Sit down!
104
00:08:37,220 --> 00:08:38,938
Sit down, you horse's ass.
105
00:08:39,020 --> 00:08:40,248
When the sun goes down
106
00:08:40,340 --> 00:08:41,773
Oh, the blues come around...
107
00:08:41,860 --> 00:08:43,532
You skinny little shit!
108
00:08:44,020 --> 00:08:47,376
When my wife wakes up,
she listens to you on the damn radio.
109
00:08:47,460 --> 00:08:50,418
If she's listening tomorrow morning,
I'm gonna beat the hell out of her.
110
00:08:55,740 --> 00:08:59,255
Well, partner, why don't you
just turn the damn thing off?
111
00:08:59,340 --> 00:09:00,819
That's why they put knobs on it.
112
00:09:02,060 --> 00:09:03,334
Wait, no!
113
00:09:05,620 --> 00:09:06,620
Get off him!
114
00:09:06,700 --> 00:09:08,179
- Get off!
- Get off!
115
00:09:09,340 --> 00:09:11,012
Get off! Get off!
116
00:09:14,460 --> 00:09:16,894
You need to control yourself, sir!
117
00:09:17,620 --> 00:09:18,620
Damn.
118
00:09:18,700 --> 00:09:19,769
Are you okay?
119
00:09:19,860 --> 00:09:20,860
I'm fine, I'm fine.
120
00:09:20,900 --> 00:09:21,969
I'm good.
121
00:09:40,820 --> 00:09:42,412
You are late.
122
00:09:51,260 --> 00:09:52,739
No, no, no.
123
00:09:52,820 --> 00:09:53,889
No.
124
00:09:58,260 --> 00:10:00,490
I know I birthed you, Hank.
125
00:10:01,540 --> 00:10:03,053
I was there.
126
00:10:04,660 --> 00:10:09,370
But where you came from
and how you got what you got
127
00:10:09,820 --> 00:10:12,380
and why you got it,
128
00:10:12,460 --> 00:10:14,769
I swear, nobody knows that.
129
00:10:15,980 --> 00:10:17,891
Except maybe the Lord.
130
00:10:18,260 --> 00:10:19,409
Maybe.
131
00:10:20,300 --> 00:10:22,689
She's gonna be pissed about this.
132
00:10:23,060 --> 00:10:24,493
You think I care?
133
00:10:24,620 --> 00:10:27,180
Shoot. I'm doing everybody
at the station a favor.
134
00:10:27,260 --> 00:10:30,093
That woman hasn't got a clue
who the star is around here.
135
00:10:30,180 --> 00:10:33,138
And I haven't been driving you
all over the state for 10 years,
136
00:10:33,220 --> 00:10:35,051
booking joints and schoolhouses,
137
00:10:35,140 --> 00:10:38,689
to see her swoop in
like she is the Queen of England.
138
00:10:39,140 --> 00:10:41,813
Know why you and Audrey don't get along?
139
00:10:45,820 --> 00:10:50,291
One of you is afraid the other's gonna
beat her to my pocket when I get drunk.
140
00:10:51,820 --> 00:10:53,936
That's a hurtful thing to say, son.
141
00:10:54,020 --> 00:10:56,534
Yeah, I'm just whupped, that's all.
142
00:10:58,820 --> 00:11:00,811
I wish that was all.
143
00:11:03,180 --> 00:11:04,932
When's the last time you ate?
144
00:11:05,940 --> 00:11:07,339
Can't recall.
145
00:11:09,780 --> 00:11:11,532
Is your back sore?
146
00:11:14,180 --> 00:11:15,659
It's fine.
147
00:11:19,980 --> 00:11:21,076
If you want to be sure
148
00:11:21,100 --> 00:11:23,534
you're getting the tops in quality
when you buy gas...
149
00:11:24,980 --> 00:11:26,129
Hi, Laura.
150
00:11:26,220 --> 00:11:27,494
Hey, Hank.
151
00:11:27,940 --> 00:11:30,215
- How you doing?
- Good. How are you?
152
00:11:30,300 --> 00:11:32,609
Now, you never write, you never call.
153
00:11:32,700 --> 00:11:34,956
- What'd I do?
- Look, Hank, I got to get these to the office.
154
00:11:34,980 --> 00:11:36,572
You got to go? Well, I'll see you soon.
155
00:11:36,660 --> 00:11:38,013
Bye, Hank.
156
00:11:38,500 --> 00:11:39,933
I'll miss you.
157
00:11:46,540 --> 00:11:47,734
Hi, boys.
158
00:11:47,820 --> 00:11:49,253
- Morning, boss.
- Howdy, Hank.
159
00:11:49,340 --> 00:11:50,340
How are y'all?
160
00:11:58,940 --> 00:12:00,771
I am moving slow today.
161
00:12:05,060 --> 00:12:06,937
Well, where's the missus?
162
00:12:08,060 --> 00:12:09,618
She ain't here.
163
00:12:12,260 --> 00:12:13,773
Williams!
164
00:12:13,860 --> 00:12:16,055
Where you get off
wasting 12 minutes of airtime?
165
00:12:16,140 --> 00:12:17,778
That shit ain't gonna work.
166
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:19,492
And you smell like a damn still.
167
00:12:19,580 --> 00:12:21,093
All of ya.
168
00:12:21,180 --> 00:12:23,216
Why, I'm sorry, Mr. Pill.
169
00:12:23,300 --> 00:12:24,796
Yeah, well, that don't mean nothing to me.
170
00:12:24,820 --> 00:12:26,412
I'll boot you, I swear to God I will.
171
00:12:26,620 --> 00:12:29,088
We're running a business here, asshole.
172
00:12:30,340 --> 00:12:32,570
Oh, I surely know that, Mr. Pill.
173
00:12:35,780 --> 00:12:37,498
Count him off.
174
00:12:39,620 --> 00:12:41,770
Three, two, one.
175
00:12:43,020 --> 00:12:46,649
Hey, a fine, very early good morning
to all you friends out there.
176
00:12:46,740 --> 00:12:49,777
This is Hank Williams
and the Drifting Cowboys.
177
00:12:49,860 --> 00:12:52,135
We're awful sorry we're
getting a late jump,
178
00:12:52,220 --> 00:12:57,613
but last night, we got jumped ourselves
out on Highway 31.
179
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:00,100
Oh, yeah.
180
00:13:00,140 --> 00:13:01,937
There's one more thing.
181
00:13:02,860 --> 00:13:06,819
This looks like it's gonna be
our last program here at WSFA.
182
00:13:06,900 --> 00:13:11,052
So, if any of you out there have enjoyed it,
we'd sure like to hear from ya.
183
00:13:11,140 --> 00:13:13,051
You just write us and let us know.
184
00:13:14,060 --> 00:13:16,779
Hey, Lycrecia, don't you love this book?
185
00:13:17,020 --> 00:13:18,578
That's her cowboy.
186
00:13:18,660 --> 00:13:21,970
I dreamed about you, baby
187
00:13:22,460 --> 00:13:23,495
Even though...
188
00:13:23,580 --> 00:13:24,979
Oh, bless you, honey.
189
00:13:25,060 --> 00:13:26,060
You let me go
190
00:13:26,140 --> 00:13:27,892
- Look at his hat.
- Honey, what you think?
191
00:13:27,980 --> 00:13:30,016
I'd like a hat like that.
192
00:13:30,100 --> 00:13:32,898
How long's it been
since Lycrecia saw her daddy?
193
00:13:32,980 --> 00:13:35,699
Well, he's gonna stop by next week
when she's at Mom and Dad's.
194
00:13:37,340 --> 00:13:42,619
Oh, my heart is oh so heavy
195
00:13:43,580 --> 00:13:45,855
And these tears
196
00:13:45,940 --> 00:13:47,339
No longer glow
197
00:13:47,420 --> 00:13:48,899
Come on. Eat-up time.
198
00:13:50,380 --> 00:13:53,816
I'm done dreaming
199
00:13:53,900 --> 00:13:56,733
About you, baby
200
00:13:57,700 --> 00:14:04,538
All because you let me go
201
00:14:07,940 --> 00:14:09,009
So?
202
00:14:11,860 --> 00:14:13,134
It's fine, baby.
203
00:14:13,220 --> 00:14:15,017
It's fine?
204
00:14:16,220 --> 00:14:17,733
Yeah. Fine.
205
00:14:17,820 --> 00:14:19,094
Well, how's the stew?
206
00:14:19,620 --> 00:14:20,814
It's fine.
207
00:14:22,780 --> 00:14:24,850
Everything's fine, then, huh?
208
00:14:26,060 --> 00:14:27,379
Just fine.
209
00:14:29,900 --> 00:14:32,368
You know, if it's fine,
it doesn't need any ketchup.
210
00:14:32,460 --> 00:14:33,688
But it isn't that fine.
211
00:14:35,460 --> 00:14:36,973
The food or the song?
212
00:14:37,100 --> 00:14:41,139
Well, they both
need a little ketchup, honey.
213
00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:44,979
Screw you, Hank.
214
00:14:45,060 --> 00:14:46,971
- Oh, come on, Auds.
- You come on.
215
00:14:47,060 --> 00:14:48,618
You always do this.
216
00:14:49,220 --> 00:14:50,220
Do what?
217
00:14:50,300 --> 00:14:51,892
Well, you know...
218
00:14:52,740 --> 00:14:54,676
Like you said that I could sing with you
on the program.
219
00:14:54,700 --> 00:14:56,452
And there's been none of that at all.
220
00:14:56,540 --> 00:14:57,689
Okay, fine.
221
00:14:58,340 --> 00:15:00,137
What's that mean?
222
00:15:00,220 --> 00:15:02,575
Geez, just what I said it means, okay?
223
00:15:14,420 --> 00:15:15,455
Hi.
224
00:15:16,900 --> 00:15:18,811
What are you writing, Hank?
225
00:15:20,220 --> 00:15:22,609
Uh, maybe a little poem to the Lord.
226
00:15:23,260 --> 00:15:24,579
Might turn into a song.
227
00:15:24,660 --> 00:15:26,378
Can always use a new one.
228
00:15:26,460 --> 00:15:27,654
Really?
229
00:15:28,460 --> 00:15:30,610
Are you the religious sort?
230
00:15:32,380 --> 00:15:34,689
Well, when I was a boy,
231
00:15:34,780 --> 00:15:38,090
I spent a lot of time in church
listening to gospel.
232
00:15:38,740 --> 00:15:40,571
You still are a boy.
233
00:15:44,820 --> 00:15:46,378
You think so, Ellie?
234
00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:49,411
Why don't you write me a poem?
235
00:15:52,900 --> 00:15:54,219
Well, uh...
236
00:15:56,780 --> 00:15:59,214
I might have to get to
know you a little better.
237
00:16:00,300 --> 00:16:01,892
Get lost, Ellie.
238
00:16:07,460 --> 00:16:09,018
Did you see Howard Pill called?
239
00:16:09,100 --> 00:16:11,170
Hank's got to come back. He has a contract.
240
00:16:11,460 --> 00:16:13,132
That's true, we do.
241
00:16:13,660 --> 00:16:15,412
And it's a good job right now.
242
00:16:15,500 --> 00:16:17,889
He also said he'd like me
to do some singing on the show.
243
00:16:17,980 --> 00:16:19,572
That is not true.
244
00:16:19,660 --> 00:16:22,493
Geez,
I was doing pretty good here.
245
00:16:27,700 --> 00:16:30,897
Few more shows, I want to be done with him.
246
00:16:30,980 --> 00:16:33,016
It's not so easy to get out of.
247
00:16:33,100 --> 00:16:34,772
Well, he can do what he wants, Lillie.
248
00:16:34,860 --> 00:16:36,179
What is this, a schoolyard?
249
00:16:36,260 --> 00:16:37,260
Where are you going?
250
00:16:37,340 --> 00:16:40,093
Right now, I'm gonna take a piss.
251
00:16:40,180 --> 00:16:43,252
Then the day after tomorrow,
I'm going up to Nashville.
252
00:16:43,340 --> 00:16:46,140
Charlie Holt gave me the name of a guy
who can help me get on the Opry.
253
00:16:46,180 --> 00:16:48,316
Well, I pressed Charlie Holt.
You know that. I told you.
254
00:16:48,340 --> 00:16:49,932
You did. I know, yeah.
255
00:16:50,020 --> 00:16:52,011
That's just swell, Audrey.
256
00:16:52,540 --> 00:16:53,939
Sounds good, huh?
257
00:16:54,620 --> 00:16:56,417
So, when are we going, baby?
258
00:16:56,500 --> 00:16:57,694
Friday.
259
00:16:58,540 --> 00:16:59,893
Friday?
260
00:16:59,980 --> 00:17:02,858
But Mama's bringing Lycrecia back then.
261
00:17:03,300 --> 00:17:05,052
So, there you go.
262
00:17:15,660 --> 00:17:17,457
- Hello, sir.
- Hey there.
263
00:17:17,540 --> 00:17:19,451
- I'm Hank Williams.
- I heard that.
264
00:17:19,540 --> 00:17:21,258
Well, I'll get down to it, then.
265
00:17:22,260 --> 00:17:24,057
Charlie Holt gave me your name.
266
00:17:24,140 --> 00:17:26,356
He said you'd tell me what I have to do
to get on the Opry.
267
00:17:26,380 --> 00:17:29,116
There's only one way to do that,
and that's to audition for Jack Stapp.
268
00:17:29,140 --> 00:17:32,496
Well, I... You know, I sure hate
those auditions, Mr. Collins.
269
00:17:32,980 --> 00:17:34,208
Maybe I could just meet him.
270
00:17:34,340 --> 00:17:36,092
Son, there are no shortcuts to the Opry.
271
00:17:39,020 --> 00:17:40,897
Well, could you tell
Mr. Stapp that I'm here?
272
00:17:41,620 --> 00:17:43,258
Hank, how old are you?
273
00:17:44,660 --> 00:17:46,810
Twenty... Twenty-three
when I last checked, sir.
274
00:17:46,900 --> 00:17:48,676
Well, that's old enough
that you ought to know
275
00:17:48,700 --> 00:17:50,338
that's not how it works.
276
00:17:50,420 --> 00:17:52,854
Now, you're gonna make an appointment,
277
00:17:53,260 --> 00:17:57,219
and then you'll play for him,
and if he likes it, you'll play for Judge Hay.
278
00:17:57,300 --> 00:17:58,653
And then what?
279
00:17:59,420 --> 00:18:01,236
And then Judge Hay's likely to tell you
to come back
280
00:18:01,260 --> 00:18:02,740
when you're hot enough to draw flies.
281
00:18:03,940 --> 00:18:06,090
Well, I just might know how to do that.
282
00:18:06,940 --> 00:18:08,896
Hank, you know Fred Rose?
283
00:18:11,420 --> 00:18:13,058
I know of him.
284
00:18:13,220 --> 00:18:14,778
Roy Acuff's partner.
285
00:18:14,860 --> 00:18:16,452
Among other things.
286
00:18:16,540 --> 00:18:19,054
You might want to know of him
a little bit better.
287
00:18:19,340 --> 00:18:22,298
When he first came to see me,
he played some songs he'd written
288
00:18:22,380 --> 00:18:23,938
and some other folks' material.
289
00:18:24,060 --> 00:18:28,929
Well, actually, I believe Audrey, his wife,
had been calling here quite a bit,
290
00:18:29,060 --> 00:18:30,971
pushing me to see him.
291
00:18:31,460 --> 00:18:36,215
And I offered him a contract
right then and there as a songwriter.
292
00:18:36,540 --> 00:18:38,019
Damn publishing deal.
293
00:18:38,100 --> 00:18:40,295
Ten dollars per song, plus royalties.
294
00:18:40,380 --> 00:18:42,610
Officially a paid songwriter.
295
00:18:42,740 --> 00:18:44,537
So I suggest you address me
296
00:18:44,660 --> 00:18:46,820
as Mr. Hiram Williams from now on.
297
00:18:48,220 --> 00:18:50,211
Where the hell'd Hiram come from anyway?
298
00:18:50,300 --> 00:18:52,052
From my old man.
299
00:18:52,140 --> 00:18:54,700
Got it from King Hiram
of the Book of Kings.
300
00:18:54,780 --> 00:18:56,896
Hiram the First of Tyre.
301
00:18:56,980 --> 00:18:58,459
Can we get some strawberries later?
302
00:18:58,540 --> 00:19:02,818
Lillie never mentions your daddy at all,
you know, like he never existed.
303
00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:06,572
Yeah, she put him in
the Veterans Hospital when I was six.
304
00:19:06,660 --> 00:19:08,935
The one down in Pensacola.
305
00:19:09,060 --> 00:19:13,019
I don't know, it was a...
A war injury from France or something.
306
00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:15,739
But a cousin told me
it was from a truck accident
307
00:19:15,820 --> 00:19:18,288
in a lumberyard he was working in.
308
00:19:18,860 --> 00:19:21,658
Anyway, he was all messed up, and...
309
00:19:23,020 --> 00:19:24,692
That was about it for us.
310
00:19:37,100 --> 00:19:39,091
Night-night, little bastard.
311
00:19:45,100 --> 00:19:47,568
Better watch where you put that thing.
312
00:19:48,940 --> 00:19:50,214
Hmm.
313
00:19:54,060 --> 00:19:55,334
Howdy.
314
00:19:55,420 --> 00:19:56,489
Hi.
315
00:20:09,340 --> 00:20:12,173
I think we might have
a little bronco riding tonight.
316
00:20:13,020 --> 00:20:14,089
Says who?
317
00:20:14,180 --> 00:20:15,738
Says ol' Hank.
318
00:20:16,620 --> 00:20:18,099
Well, I look forward to that event.
319
00:20:18,180 --> 00:20:19,579
You should.
320
00:20:19,820 --> 00:20:22,493
Especially since you're not drinking.
321
00:20:22,580 --> 00:20:23,729
Oh...
322
00:20:23,940 --> 00:20:26,659
Now, darling, that's uncalled for.
323
00:20:30,180 --> 00:20:31,613
You're right.
324
00:20:33,420 --> 00:20:37,459
Well, then come on and climb up, cowboy.
325
00:20:37,740 --> 00:20:38,889
Ooh.
326
00:20:39,380 --> 00:20:40,938
Oh, my back.
327
00:20:41,100 --> 00:20:43,773
- It's gone again, baby.
- All right, then.
328
00:20:52,900 --> 00:20:54,299
You love me?
329
00:20:56,780 --> 00:20:58,259
You love me?
330
00:20:58,780 --> 00:21:02,216
Do you really love me, honey?
331
00:21:05,260 --> 00:21:06,932
Most of the time I do.
332
00:21:10,820 --> 00:21:13,732
Came in
last night at a half past 10: 00
333
00:21:13,820 --> 00:21:16,618
That baby of mine wouldn't let me in
334
00:21:16,700 --> 00:21:18,418
So move it on over
335
00:21:18,500 --> 00:21:20,218
Move it on over
336
00:21:20,300 --> 00:21:22,689
- Move it on over
- Move it on over
337
00:21:22,780 --> 00:21:26,819
Move over, little dog
'Cause the big dog's moving in
338
00:21:28,780 --> 00:21:31,772
She changed the lock on our front door
339
00:21:31,860 --> 00:21:34,579
And my door key don't fit no more
340
00:21:34,660 --> 00:21:36,696
So get it on over
341
00:21:36,780 --> 00:21:39,214
- Move it on over
- Scoot it on over
342
00:21:39,300 --> 00:21:40,574
Move it on over
343
00:21:40,660 --> 00:21:44,448
Move over, skinny dog
'Cause the fat dog's moving in...
344
00:21:46,420 --> 00:21:47,556
Now, why don't you come down here,
345
00:21:47,580 --> 00:21:48,836
and you'll see what I'm talking about.
346
00:21:48,860 --> 00:21:50,179
Come down.
347
00:21:50,700 --> 00:21:53,578
Now, you see that the left
is much higher than the right.
348
00:21:53,660 --> 00:21:55,156
- Can you see it now?
- Sure, yeah. Yeah.
349
00:21:55,180 --> 00:21:57,196
Now, good.
Now, why don't you go back up and fix it?
350
00:21:57,220 --> 00:21:58,289
Yes, ma'am.
351
00:21:58,380 --> 00:21:59,859
And watch your head.
352
00:21:59,980 --> 00:22:01,811
I don't need no blood.
353
00:22:21,540 --> 00:22:22,939
Hey, honey, get in here.
354
00:22:23,020 --> 00:22:24,214
What?
355
00:22:24,300 --> 00:22:25,813
I want to show you something.
356
00:22:25,900 --> 00:22:27,413
What is it?
357
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:29,934
Well, get in here, and I'll show you.
358
00:22:30,380 --> 00:22:32,689
Well, okay, then.
359
00:22:33,020 --> 00:22:35,295
What do you have to show me?
360
00:22:36,940 --> 00:22:38,532
- You see this?
- Mmm-hmm.
361
00:22:39,500 --> 00:22:40,694
Now...
362
00:22:42,620 --> 00:22:47,535
"Where the inspiration for Move It On Over
came from, Hank couldn't say.
363
00:22:48,460 --> 00:22:51,099
"It surely wasn't his own married life.
364
00:22:51,180 --> 00:22:55,253
"Mr. and Mrs. Hank Williams
lead a model domestic life."
365
00:22:55,340 --> 00:22:56,916
Wait, you think that's funny?
366
00:22:56,940 --> 00:22:58,931
I kind of do. Don't you?
367
00:22:59,540 --> 00:23:01,212
- Ooh.
- Hmm.
368
00:23:02,660 --> 00:23:05,128
Also says we've sold over 90,000.
369
00:23:05,220 --> 00:23:06,255
My God.
370
00:23:06,380 --> 00:23:07,495
If that's even half true,
371
00:23:07,580 --> 00:23:10,378
I wonder what kind of money
that really adds up to.
372
00:23:10,820 --> 00:23:13,653
Adds up to Hiram Williams
is a big damn deal.
373
00:23:13,740 --> 00:23:17,619
Well, big deal, did you see
that note on the counter?
374
00:23:18,340 --> 00:23:21,571
Howard Pill called, making sure
we're at the station tomorrow.
375
00:23:21,660 --> 00:23:24,811
Oh, hell with that show.
I should have never gone back.
376
00:23:28,740 --> 00:23:29,968
All right, folks.
377
00:23:30,060 --> 00:23:31,812
I know it's 6:30 in the morning,
378
00:23:31,900 --> 00:23:34,698
but say you're milking a cow
or just going to the store
379
00:23:34,780 --> 00:23:36,691
for some extra feed or supplies,
380
00:23:36,780 --> 00:23:38,771
we sure appreciate you listening to us.
381
00:23:38,860 --> 00:23:40,259
We really do.
382
00:23:40,340 --> 00:23:43,969
Now, I got a young lady
gonna sing a song for you.
383
00:23:44,060 --> 00:23:46,016
- You here?
- I'm here.
384
00:23:46,100 --> 00:23:47,772
I'm up in here.
385
00:23:47,860 --> 00:23:50,693
She's slowly approaching the microscope.
386
00:23:50,780 --> 00:23:52,133
You good?
387
00:23:52,260 --> 00:23:53,375
I'm fine.
388
00:23:53,460 --> 00:23:55,052
Hey, you don't sound like you mean it.
389
00:23:55,180 --> 00:23:57,136
- Well, I do.
- Well, good.
390
00:23:57,260 --> 00:23:58,932
Now, she's gonna sing a little ol' song
391
00:23:59,020 --> 00:24:01,136
called Pan American,
which some of you will know.
392
00:24:01,220 --> 00:24:06,135
It's the locomotive that highballs it
from Cincinnati all the way to New Orleans
393
00:24:06,220 --> 00:24:07,892
just about every day.
394
00:24:08,500 --> 00:24:10,730
At least turn her mic down, for God's sake.
395
00:24:10,860 --> 00:24:12,532
Set your clock by it.
396
00:24:12,620 --> 00:24:14,133
All right, Byrd.
397
00:24:25,660 --> 00:24:30,415
I have heard your stories
About your fast trains
398
00:24:30,900 --> 00:24:33,460
And now I'll tell you about one
399
00:24:33,540 --> 00:24:36,008
All the Southern folks have seen
400
00:24:36,100 --> 00:24:38,773
She's the beauty of the Southland
401
00:24:38,860 --> 00:24:41,658
Listen to that whistle scream
402
00:24:42,220 --> 00:24:47,658
It's that Pan American
On her way to New Orleans...
403
00:24:52,500 --> 00:24:53,819
Well, we got through that.
404
00:24:53,900 --> 00:24:55,015
Barely.
405
00:24:56,380 --> 00:24:58,974
Someone's got to do something about her.
406
00:24:59,060 --> 00:25:00,129
Well, well, well.
407
00:25:01,100 --> 00:25:04,092
You boys discussing the weather or Audrey?
408
00:25:04,860 --> 00:25:09,172
Well, Hank, actually
we were discussing her singing.
409
00:25:09,540 --> 00:25:10,655
Oh, you were?
410
00:25:10,740 --> 00:25:11,855
Yeah.
411
00:25:12,740 --> 00:25:15,493
Um, well, Hank,
412
00:25:17,660 --> 00:25:18,888
she's awful.
413
00:25:18,980 --> 00:25:20,777
Hey, you son of a bitch, that's my wife.
414
00:25:20,860 --> 00:25:22,740
Well, now, look, Hank,
you know as well as I do.
415
00:25:22,780 --> 00:25:24,116
- Now, come on.
- Well, maybe I do,
416
00:25:24,140 --> 00:25:25,196
but that don't matter right now.
417
00:25:25,220 --> 00:25:27,051
That's my wife you're talking about.
418
00:25:32,060 --> 00:25:34,255
Well, screw you, my husband.
419
00:25:36,580 --> 00:25:38,100
Hey, darling. Darling, you didn't hear
420
00:25:38,140 --> 00:25:39,916
what I was saying back there.
I was defending you.
421
00:25:39,940 --> 00:25:41,578
You did a hell of a job on that song.
422
00:25:41,700 --> 00:25:42,974
- Just forget about it.
- Baby.
423
00:25:43,060 --> 00:25:44,334
Baby, it's a beautiful morning.
424
00:25:44,420 --> 00:25:45,694
You look beautiful.
425
00:25:45,780 --> 00:25:46,849
We're doing really swell.
426
00:25:46,940 --> 00:25:48,658
Oh, have another drink, Hank.
427
00:25:48,740 --> 00:25:49,740
We're doing shit.
428
00:25:49,820 --> 00:25:51,014
Why'd you got to say that?
429
00:25:51,100 --> 00:25:52,356
You know people like my singing?
430
00:25:52,380 --> 00:25:54,052
They tell me that. But not you.
431
00:25:54,140 --> 00:25:56,608
Every time you get a chance,
you squash me like a bug.
432
00:25:56,700 --> 00:25:58,338
What are you talking about, a bug?
433
00:25:58,420 --> 00:25:59,694
More like a damn queen bee.
434
00:25:59,780 --> 00:26:01,771
I bring you up there.
I stand by your side.
435
00:26:01,860 --> 00:26:03,676
- Yeah, holding your nose!
- Holding my nose? No.
436
00:26:03,700 --> 00:26:05,895
Yeah, I'm sick of feeling bad,
Hank, I'm sick of it!
437
00:26:05,980 --> 00:26:08,130
Hey, we've got a hit record,
in case you don't know.
438
00:26:08,220 --> 00:26:10,336
We got a new house, and you got
a goddamned fur coat.
439
00:26:10,420 --> 00:26:11,773
Oh, you think that makes up for
440
00:26:11,900 --> 00:26:13,396
all the drunken whoring around
bullshit I take?
441
00:26:13,420 --> 00:26:16,332
- It ought to make up for something!
- Well, it don't!
442
00:26:16,860 --> 00:26:19,738
Not for a second does it make up
for crushing a person's dreams.
443
00:26:19,820 --> 00:26:20,969
What?
444
00:26:21,060 --> 00:26:24,939
Yeah, I'll tell you what,
'cause it's clear as hell right now.
445
00:26:25,420 --> 00:26:28,969
You can take your hit record,
wrap it up in that fur coat
446
00:26:29,060 --> 00:26:31,620
and you answer the phone
when my lawyer calls.
447
00:26:35,460 --> 00:26:36,609
Oh, great.
448
00:26:37,100 --> 00:26:39,409
He can call right fucking now!
449
00:27:26,980 --> 00:27:28,777
"Love each other."
450
00:27:41,860 --> 00:27:46,217
"Hank, I'm opening my heart to you
because I love you like my own son.
451
00:27:50,740 --> 00:27:53,698
"You and Audrey,
you surely love each other.
452
00:27:54,140 --> 00:27:56,700
"But you both want to be the boss.
453
00:27:57,660 --> 00:27:59,616
"Both of you have your pride.
454
00:27:59,980 --> 00:28:03,575
"Pride is one of the most
destructive lies on Earth."
455
00:28:41,060 --> 00:28:43,051
Say, how do I look?
456
00:28:43,140 --> 00:28:46,257
Better than you did
when you came in, Mr. Williams.
457
00:28:47,980 --> 00:28:49,493
Thank you, Miss Warwick.
458
00:28:49,580 --> 00:28:51,536
I ain't coming in again.
459
00:28:51,620 --> 00:28:53,212
I'm pleased to hear that.
460
00:29:02,380 --> 00:29:04,894
- Don. How are ya?
- Pretty good.
461
00:29:04,980 --> 00:29:07,175
- What, you brought me some candy?
- Yeah.
462
00:29:07,260 --> 00:29:08,260
Thank you.
463
00:29:10,780 --> 00:29:12,452
My darling valentine not with you, huh?
464
00:29:17,140 --> 00:29:18,209
Well.
465
00:29:21,500 --> 00:29:23,536
Winner and still champion.
466
00:29:34,300 --> 00:29:38,452
"This day in April, 1948,
my husband, Hank Williams
467
00:29:38,540 --> 00:29:41,771
"has a violent and ungovernable temper.
468
00:29:44,620 --> 00:29:47,737
"He drinks a great deal,
and during the last month,
469
00:29:47,820 --> 00:29:50,209
"he's been drunk most of the time.
470
00:29:50,460 --> 00:29:54,294
"The past few months, he's been engaging
in the wildest extravagances
471
00:29:54,380 --> 00:29:57,213
"and wasting the funds
which come into his hands."
472
00:29:58,060 --> 00:30:00,016
I've been wasting the funds.
473
00:30:00,100 --> 00:30:02,568
Audrey ran up a hell of a tab
at Lowry's Furniture.
474
00:30:02,820 --> 00:30:05,653
The owner says he wants it all
by the end of this week.
475
00:30:05,740 --> 00:30:06,968
Oh, does he now?
476
00:30:08,140 --> 00:30:13,260
Well, you can tell that guy that every
month I put all my bills in a hat
477
00:30:14,740 --> 00:30:18,050
and then I draw one out
and that's the one I pay.
478
00:30:18,140 --> 00:30:20,096
And if he presses me up again
479
00:30:20,780 --> 00:30:23,294
I ain't even gonna put
his damn bill in the hat.
480
00:30:23,380 --> 00:30:24,415
All right.
481
00:30:24,860 --> 00:30:27,932
The house is a push, essentially,
but you're out from under it.
482
00:30:28,020 --> 00:30:30,932
And, well, here's the deposit.
483
00:30:31,020 --> 00:30:33,011
$2,250, in cash.
484
00:30:33,140 --> 00:30:37,292
It's all just a bunch of papers,
some green and some bloody.
485
00:30:39,820 --> 00:30:44,132
I don't see what the problem is
or why it's taking so long or maybe...
486
00:30:44,220 --> 00:30:46,688
You talkin' to that divorcing bitch?
487
00:30:48,300 --> 00:30:51,212
Look, it's the Opry, Fred.
488
00:30:51,780 --> 00:30:53,577
That's what I want.
489
00:30:54,060 --> 00:30:55,732
I always wanted it.
490
00:30:55,820 --> 00:30:58,778
Yeah, I get it, I get it.
But it's not in the cards.
491
00:30:58,860 --> 00:31:02,489
Okay, I'm talking to those boys down there,
but we're gonna have to prove ourselves.
492
00:31:02,580 --> 00:31:05,413
And not just musically, frankly,
but with reliability.
493
00:31:05,500 --> 00:31:07,138
Wel I, the hel I with them then.
494
00:31:07,220 --> 00:31:09,973
They can go screw themselves
if they think they're better 'n me.
495
00:31:10,060 --> 00:31:12,335
That's right. They can kiss your ass.
496
00:31:12,420 --> 00:31:13,648
I'm not the enemy, Hank.
497
00:31:13,780 --> 00:31:15,156
Now, I got things just about set up
498
00:31:15,180 --> 00:31:18,172
with the Hayride
down at Shreveport on KWKH.
499
00:31:20,540 --> 00:31:22,496
- Okay.
- Okay?
500
00:31:23,380 --> 00:31:24,972
Yeah, for the time being, yeah.
501
00:31:25,060 --> 00:31:26,288
All right, good.
502
00:31:26,420 --> 00:31:28,012
How's the family? How's Audrey?
503
00:31:28,820 --> 00:31:30,811
- She's... She's just fine.
- Good.
504
00:31:30,900 --> 00:31:33,050
She's a demon, that's what she is.
505
00:31:33,140 --> 00:31:35,415
Women can be vengeful
when they're not on your side.
506
00:31:36,220 --> 00:31:39,178
Don't you worry, Fred. She's on my side.
507
00:31:39,260 --> 00:31:41,455
She's on her own damn side.
508
00:31:41,740 --> 00:31:43,731
We'll get to Nashville, son.
509
00:32:15,220 --> 00:32:18,576
- Crecia, why don't you come back inside?
- Okay, Mommy.
510
00:32:19,300 --> 00:32:20,938
I'll be in in a sec.
511
00:32:28,780 --> 00:32:29,780
Audrey.
512
00:32:30,420 --> 00:32:31,489
Hank.
513
00:32:35,900 --> 00:32:38,573
I'm goin' to Shreveport for the Hayride.
514
00:32:41,900 --> 00:32:43,413
I want you to come with me.
515
00:32:45,300 --> 00:32:47,018
Did you get the papers?
516
00:32:47,660 --> 00:32:48,729
Yep.
517
00:32:49,780 --> 00:32:51,816
You get the house money?
518
00:32:52,900 --> 00:32:54,094
Uh-huh.
519
00:33:01,660 --> 00:33:03,332
Come on, Auds.
520
00:33:03,620 --> 00:33:05,611
You're always, "Come on."
521
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:09,458
We're about divorced,
in case you didn't know.
522
00:33:11,780 --> 00:33:13,771
It's too hard, this divorce thing.
523
00:33:13,860 --> 00:33:16,533
Well, you should've thought about that
a long time ago.
524
00:33:18,700 --> 00:33:20,736
Yeah, I probably should have.
525
00:33:22,380 --> 00:33:24,336
I couldn't see that far.
526
00:33:26,540 --> 00:33:28,337
I couldn't see that, uh,
527
00:33:30,260 --> 00:33:32,410
fighting with you
was better than being apart.
528
00:33:32,780 --> 00:33:35,340
People do divorce all the time.
529
00:33:36,020 --> 00:33:37,612
Trust me, you can do it.
530
00:33:40,540 --> 00:33:41,734
I know.
531
00:33:47,260 --> 00:33:48,329
But, uh,
532
00:33:50,380 --> 00:33:53,258
I married the right woman
for a man like me,
533
00:33:55,700 --> 00:33:57,736
and I ain't ready to say goodbye.
534
00:33:58,300 --> 00:34:00,291
I don't exactly know what that means.
535
00:34:01,580 --> 00:34:04,219
I need you with me, is what it means.
536
00:34:08,620 --> 00:34:12,852
Besides, don't I look good?
537
00:34:14,140 --> 00:34:15,812
Mmm-hmm.
538
00:34:17,340 --> 00:34:18,898
You look okay.
539
00:34:19,300 --> 00:34:20,699
I look okay.
540
00:34:23,740 --> 00:34:24,968
Is Lillie goin'?
541
00:34:26,380 --> 00:34:27,415
Uh-uh.
542
00:34:30,180 --> 00:34:33,138
You think
you could treat me right, then?
543
00:34:33,460 --> 00:34:34,939
Quit drinkin'?
544
00:34:38,020 --> 00:34:39,089
Yes, I do.
545
00:34:40,580 --> 00:34:42,059
But you can't.
546
00:34:44,620 --> 00:34:46,212
I can try.
547
00:34:47,900 --> 00:34:49,697
Come with me, Audrey.
548
00:34:51,260 --> 00:34:52,898
I'm afraid to.
549
00:34:55,940 --> 00:34:57,293
I love you.
550
00:34:58,980 --> 00:35:00,095
Yeah.
551
00:35:13,100 --> 00:35:15,489
You gonna quit fighting me
about singing together?
552
00:35:17,220 --> 00:35:20,098
Well, yeah. Yes, I am.
553
00:35:27,900 --> 00:35:29,299
You mean it.
554
00:35:31,820 --> 00:35:33,139
I mean it.
555
00:36:56,220 --> 00:36:57,289
Hey.
556
00:37:00,060 --> 00:37:01,493
Mornin', darlin'.
557
00:37:06,500 --> 00:37:08,172
How'd the road go?
558
00:37:09,020 --> 00:37:10,214
You all right?
559
00:37:10,700 --> 00:37:12,372
I'm pretty beat.
560
00:37:12,700 --> 00:37:14,452
I'm sorry I woke you.
561
00:37:14,660 --> 00:37:16,013
You didn't.
562
00:37:16,300 --> 00:37:18,814
I haven't been sleeping worth a damn.
563
00:37:21,580 --> 00:37:22,979
I know about that.
564
00:37:23,060 --> 00:37:24,413
Nah, I haven't.
565
00:37:31,620 --> 00:37:32,848
Mmm.
566
00:37:33,580 --> 00:37:34,933
Hmm.
567
00:37:39,940 --> 00:37:41,055
Hank.
568
00:37:43,340 --> 00:37:44,853
Hmm.
569
00:37:46,860 --> 00:37:48,373
- You listening?
- Hmm.
570
00:37:51,140 --> 00:37:52,778
Um, kinda.
571
00:37:53,620 --> 00:37:55,611
I'm driftin' off, though.
572
00:37:56,140 --> 00:37:58,608
Well, I was gonna tell you somethin'.
573
00:38:00,260 --> 00:38:01,260
Hmm.
574
00:38:04,700 --> 00:38:06,258
You hearing me?
575
00:38:08,620 --> 00:38:10,053
Hmm.
576
00:38:21,140 --> 00:38:23,096
You're gonna be a daddy.
577
00:38:24,580 --> 00:38:25,899
Hmm.
578
00:38:34,820 --> 00:38:36,173
Audrey Mae.
579
00:38:42,260 --> 00:38:45,013
My God. We're gonna have a baby?
580
00:38:45,660 --> 00:38:47,013
Mmm-hmm.
581
00:38:48,340 --> 00:38:49,932
- Really?
- Really.
582
00:38:56,940 --> 00:38:58,339
I can't tell.
583
00:38:58,420 --> 00:39:00,058
Well, you will.
584
00:39:03,180 --> 00:39:05,853
- Oh, Audrey, I love you.
- And I love you.
585
00:39:12,860 --> 00:39:14,578
This is gonna be great.
586
00:39:16,300 --> 00:39:18,530
It's gonna be great!
587
00:39:19,420 --> 00:39:21,809
You know, he's gonna have a real dad.
588
00:39:21,900 --> 00:39:22,969
Yeah.
589
00:39:23,060 --> 00:39:25,699
No, not like I had. Not like it was for me.
590
00:39:26,580 --> 00:39:27,854
He's gonna have family.
591
00:39:28,620 --> 00:39:30,497
Well, how do you know it's a boy?
592
00:39:30,580 --> 00:39:34,812
Well, whatever it is,
he's gonna have a real family.
593
00:39:38,860 --> 00:39:41,055
Fred wants me to head up Cincinnati
for a session.
594
00:39:41,220 --> 00:39:42,494
Yeah, when?
595
00:39:42,580 --> 00:39:43,649
Next week.
596
00:39:43,740 --> 00:39:45,014
I'm good.
597
00:39:48,460 --> 00:39:49,973
Look, thing is,
598
00:39:51,420 --> 00:39:55,493
uh, Fred wants me to try out
some other boys to back me up on this one.
599
00:39:55,580 --> 00:39:57,730
What the hell...
What'd you tell the man?
600
00:39:59,300 --> 00:40:00,528
His call.
601
00:40:01,820 --> 00:40:03,538
I don't like that much.
602
00:40:03,620 --> 00:40:07,374
Well, I didn't figure you would,
but, uh, that's the way it's gotta be.
603
00:40:07,940 --> 00:40:10,056
Well, maybe you don't need us at all.
604
00:40:10,620 --> 00:40:11,676
Look, it don't mean nothin'.
605
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:13,930
It's just that Red Foley's band's
already up there
606
00:40:14,020 --> 00:40:15,578
and Fred wants a record right away.
607
00:40:15,700 --> 00:40:17,099
I see. It don't mean nothin'.
608
00:40:17,260 --> 00:40:19,012
I don't need any shit, Shag.
609
00:40:19,100 --> 00:40:20,579
Well, me neither.
610
00:40:27,100 --> 00:40:28,818
What's he got in mind?
611
00:40:28,900 --> 00:40:30,697
I wanna try Lovesick.
612
00:40:30,780 --> 00:40:33,453
He ain't gonna like that.
You didn't even write it.
613
00:40:33,540 --> 00:40:34,939
Well, that's true.
614
00:40:37,100 --> 00:40:38,772
But I made it mine now.
615
00:40:38,980 --> 00:40:40,413
All righty right.
616
00:40:40,980 --> 00:40:44,495
Hey, Fred. We did a couple for you.
I got one for me.
617
00:40:44,580 --> 00:40:47,140
I wanna do Lovesick. Right, boys?
618
00:40:49,020 --> 00:40:51,215
Well, hell, screw you guys.
619
00:40:51,300 --> 00:40:55,418
Hank, that song is painful,
and not in the right way.
620
00:40:55,500 --> 00:40:56,615
It's out of meter.
621
00:40:56,740 --> 00:40:59,334
You hang onto some of those notes
too damn long.
622
00:40:59,420 --> 00:41:02,378
Well, when I find a note I like,
I like holdin' on to it.
623
00:41:02,740 --> 00:41:05,300
Listen to me. I'm on the Hayride.
624
00:41:05,660 --> 00:41:10,575
I sing that song, I walk off the stage,
I throw my hat back on the stage.
625
00:41:11,140 --> 00:41:12,573
The hat gets an encore.
626
00:41:12,660 --> 00:41:14,093
Come on, now.
627
00:41:15,900 --> 00:41:18,494
All right. I'm getting a cup of coffee.
You got 15 minutes.
628
00:41:18,780 --> 00:41:20,133
Thank you, sir.
629
00:41:20,220 --> 00:41:22,688
All right, boys, Lovesick Blues.
Let's keep it simple.
630
00:41:22,780 --> 00:41:25,214
No need to worry, Hank.
Isn't all this shit simple?
631
00:41:36,860 --> 00:41:40,569
I got a feeling
called the blues, oh Lord
632
00:41:40,700 --> 00:41:42,850
Since my baby said goodbye
633
00:41:44,420 --> 00:41:47,332
Lord, I don't know what I'll do
634
00:41:48,020 --> 00:41:50,659
All I do is sit and sigh...
635
00:41:50,740 --> 00:41:51,934
I'll tell you somethin'.
636
00:41:52,020 --> 00:41:53,055
I ain't buyin'.
637
00:41:55,820 --> 00:41:58,209
Gonna have a burger there with the ketchup?
638
00:41:58,300 --> 00:41:59,494
Yes, I am.
639
00:42:00,980 --> 00:42:02,936
- Hey, Sammy, you get there yet?
- No.
640
00:42:03,220 --> 00:42:04,619
I didn't start from the back.
641
00:42:04,860 --> 00:42:08,136
Well, I guess in high school
you still read front to back, huh?
642
00:42:08,220 --> 00:42:09,539
That's funny, Hank.
643
00:42:09,620 --> 00:42:11,133
You ain't that much older, you know.
644
00:42:11,220 --> 00:42:13,415
I was born older than you, Sammy.
645
00:42:18,900 --> 00:42:20,618
Take a look at this.
646
00:42:21,740 --> 00:42:23,059
Look at it.
647
00:42:40,260 --> 00:42:42,649
Now, I'll tell you somethin'.
648
00:42:43,020 --> 00:42:44,658
And this ain't bull.
649
00:42:44,740 --> 00:42:47,049
If this don't get me to the Opry...
650
00:42:49,500 --> 00:42:51,331
I'm gonna give it up.
651
00:42:51,420 --> 00:42:52,820
No shit.
652
00:42:52,940 --> 00:42:56,057
They'll have to come find me on a boat
full of bass and come beggin'!
653
00:42:56,140 --> 00:42:57,140
What they'll have to do.
654
00:42:57,220 --> 00:42:58,220
- Hank.
- Oscar!
655
00:42:58,580 --> 00:43:00,636
What, somebody been chasing you or what?
656
00:43:00,660 --> 00:43:01,775
It's Audrey.
657
00:43:01,860 --> 00:43:04,420
- She all right?
- Yeah, yeah. You comin'?
658
00:43:04,780 --> 00:43:06,896
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
659
00:43:06,980 --> 00:43:08,698
Well, okay then! All right!
660
00:43:08,980 --> 00:43:10,254
Hey, I told you I ain't buyin'.
661
00:43:10,340 --> 00:43:13,332
Hey, Sammy,
keep a hold of that magazine, okay?
662
00:43:36,020 --> 00:43:38,409
Doc. Everything all right?
663
00:43:38,980 --> 00:43:40,413
Congratulations.
664
00:43:40,500 --> 00:43:42,218
You have a son, Mr. Williams.
665
00:43:42,300 --> 00:43:44,495
- I... I do?
- You do.
666
00:43:44,580 --> 00:43:46,332
How's Mama?
667
00:43:46,420 --> 00:43:47,420
She's good. She's strong.
668
00:43:47,500 --> 00:43:48,636
- She all right?
- Yeah, yeah.
669
00:43:48,660 --> 00:43:50,855
- And the boy, well, he's healthy, and...
- Yeah?
670
00:43:50,940 --> 00:43:51,940
Big.
671
00:43:51,980 --> 00:43:53,811
- He's big?
- Over 10 pounds.
672
00:43:53,900 --> 00:43:55,299
- Well...
- Biggest this year.
673
00:43:55,420 --> 00:43:56,535
Oh, he's a hoss, huh?
674
00:43:56,620 --> 00:43:57,735
That's the truth.
675
00:43:57,820 --> 00:44:00,209
Well, thank you, Doc. Thank you so much.
676
00:44:00,340 --> 00:44:01,568
- Absolutely.
- Thank you.
677
00:44:01,660 --> 00:44:03,596
We'll have her ready for you
to see in about 15 minutes.
678
00:44:03,620 --> 00:44:04,676
- Yes, sir. All right.
- All right.
679
00:44:04,700 --> 00:44:05,820
I'm gonna need my hand back.
680
00:44:05,860 --> 00:44:06,956
Okay, all right, I'll let you go.
681
00:44:06,980 --> 00:44:08,732
- All right. Sure.
- Okay. Thank you, sir.
682
00:44:17,780 --> 00:44:19,338
All right, now.
683
00:44:20,260 --> 00:44:23,536
Daddy's here. Daddy's here.
684
00:44:24,820 --> 00:44:27,095
It's all right. It's all right.
685
00:44:28,260 --> 00:44:29,260
Shh.
686
00:44:35,580 --> 00:44:37,457
It's all right.
687
00:44:37,540 --> 00:44:39,053
Daddy's here.
688
00:44:40,260 --> 00:44:46,051
I wouldn't let my dear savior in
689
00:44:48,060 --> 00:44:50,733
Then Jesus came
690
00:44:50,820 --> 00:44:54,256
Like a stranger in the night
691
00:44:55,500 --> 00:44:58,617
Praise the Lord
692
00:44:58,700 --> 00:45:01,055
I saw the light
693
00:45:01,700 --> 00:45:08,139
I saw the light
694
00:45:08,820 --> 00:45:11,778
No more darkness
695
00:45:12,220 --> 00:45:15,212
No more night
696
00:45:16,020 --> 00:45:19,217
Now I'm so happy
697
00:45:19,540 --> 00:45:22,498
No sorrow in sight
698
00:45:24,100 --> 00:45:27,297
Praise the Lord
699
00:45:27,380 --> 00:45:30,053
I saw the light
700
00:45:36,220 --> 00:45:39,212
He was sleeping
pretty good there for a few days.
701
00:45:40,420 --> 00:45:43,218
I guess they finally put the batteries in.
702
00:45:48,060 --> 00:45:50,210
He sure likes his mama.
703
00:45:53,420 --> 00:45:54,694
Hmm.
704
00:46:03,900 --> 00:46:05,970
I'm going to the Opry, Auds.
705
00:46:06,940 --> 00:46:08,931
Of course you are, honey.
706
00:46:11,940 --> 00:46:13,532
I mean now.
707
00:46:35,180 --> 00:46:38,536
Well, how'd he get past
Jack Stapp and that gang?
708
00:46:40,460 --> 00:46:43,497
Oscar and Fred swore
I'd keep my nose clean.
709
00:46:44,140 --> 00:46:45,698
I've been sober.
710
00:46:45,780 --> 00:46:47,691
Well, I ought to be there.
711
00:46:49,580 --> 00:46:51,650
I ought to be there, Hank.
712
00:46:53,180 --> 00:46:54,977
But I can't, can I?
713
00:46:56,460 --> 00:46:58,496
This peanut's too little.
714
00:47:01,980 --> 00:47:03,538
It's not right.
715
00:47:03,620 --> 00:47:05,531
I know. I know, honey.
716
00:47:06,660 --> 00:47:07,934
I know.
717
00:47:08,460 --> 00:47:09,779
I'm sorry.
718
00:47:10,660 --> 00:47:13,299
It suddenly just happened that fast?
719
00:47:15,620 --> 00:47:17,850
Not fast enough for me.
720
00:47:19,100 --> 00:47:23,173
I'm walking the floor over you
721
00:47:24,700 --> 00:47:28,613
I can't sleep a wink, that is true
722
00:47:29,100 --> 00:47:31,455
I'm hoping and I'm praying
723
00:47:31,540 --> 00:47:33,496
As my heart breaks right in two...
724
00:47:35,580 --> 00:47:36,695
Hank.
725
00:47:37,780 --> 00:47:38,849
How you doing, son?
726
00:47:39,340 --> 00:47:41,217
- Pretty fair.
- Don't worry,
727
00:47:41,300 --> 00:47:42,980
they can kill you, but they can't eat you.
728
00:47:44,260 --> 00:47:46,057
Strangely comforting.
729
00:47:46,380 --> 00:47:47,859
I'm real proud of you, Hank.
730
00:47:47,940 --> 00:47:49,692
I say that as a friend.
731
00:47:49,820 --> 00:47:52,254
- Well, I wouldn't be here without you, Pappy.
- Well.
732
00:47:52,340 --> 00:47:54,137
It's everything I ever wanted.
733
00:47:54,220 --> 00:47:55,972
Well, soon as he's done,
734
00:47:56,060 --> 00:47:58,180
there's gonna be three commercials,
and then it's you.
735
00:47:58,220 --> 00:48:00,256
Foley's boys are backing you.
736
00:48:00,340 --> 00:48:02,058
They're down the hall.
737
00:48:02,780 --> 00:48:04,532
- Jim.
- Fred.
738
00:48:04,620 --> 00:48:06,975
Hank, Jim Denny, manager of the Opry.
739
00:48:07,060 --> 00:48:09,051
Yes, sir. Thank you.
740
00:48:09,620 --> 00:48:11,417
Sure. Good luck.
741
00:48:18,020 --> 00:48:20,739
...just food and drinks and everything.
742
00:48:21,940 --> 00:48:23,540
- You guys get a little hungry...
- Boys.
743
00:48:24,300 --> 00:48:25,653
- Hey, Hank.
- Hey.
744
00:48:25,740 --> 00:48:26,809
Hank.
745
00:48:29,900 --> 00:48:30,935
Hank.
746
00:48:32,820 --> 00:48:33,969
Jerry.
747
00:48:37,820 --> 00:48:38,876
Ladies and gentlemen,
748
00:48:38,900 --> 00:48:41,334
tonight's big-name guest
is making his first appearance
749
00:48:41,420 --> 00:48:43,297
on the Prince Albert Grand Ole Opry.
750
00:48:43,380 --> 00:48:46,656
Let's give a rousing welcome
to the Lovesick Blues boy,
751
00:48:46,740 --> 00:48:48,378
Mr. Hank Williams!
752
00:48:55,300 --> 00:48:57,894
I got a feelin' called the blues
753
00:48:57,980 --> 00:49:00,972
Oh, Lord, since my baby said goodbye
754
00:49:02,140 --> 00:49:05,212
Lord, I don't know what I'll do
755
00:49:05,540 --> 00:49:08,896
All I do is sit and sigh, oh Lord
756
00:49:08,980 --> 00:49:12,734
That last long day she said goodbye
757
00:49:13,220 --> 00:49:16,451
Well, Lord, I thought I would cry
758
00:49:17,180 --> 00:49:20,650
She'll do me, she 'll do you
She's got that kind of lovin'
759
00:49:20,740 --> 00:49:22,810
Lord, I love to hear her when she calls me
760
00:49:22,900 --> 00:49:25,812
Sweet daddy
761
00:49:25,900 --> 00:49:28,050
Such a beautiful dream
762
00:49:29,180 --> 00:49:31,933
I hate to think it all over
763
00:49:32,140 --> 00:49:35,689
I lost my heart, it seems
764
00:49:35,900 --> 00:49:39,449
I've grown so used to you somehow
765
00:49:39,860 --> 00:49:43,409
Well, I'm nobody's sugar daddy now
766
00:49:43,500 --> 00:49:45,730
And I'm lonesome
767
00:49:45,820 --> 00:49:47,811
I got the lovesick blues
768
00:49:50,260 --> 00:49:52,057
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love
769
00:49:52,140 --> 00:49:54,017
With a beautiful gal
770
00:49:54,460 --> 00:49:56,815
That's what's the matter with me
771
00:49:57,060 --> 00:49:58,937
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love
772
00:49:59,020 --> 00:50:00,897
With a beautiful gal
773
00:50:00,980 --> 00:50:03,050
But she don't care about me
774
00:50:04,020 --> 00:50:06,295
Lord, I've tried and I've tried
775
00:50:06,380 --> 00:50:07,779
To keep her satisfied
776
00:50:07,860 --> 00:50:10,772
But she just wouldn't stay
777
00:50:11,180 --> 00:50:14,695
So now that she is leavin'
778
00:50:15,020 --> 00:50:18,615
This is all I can say
779
00:50:18,700 --> 00:50:22,170
I got a feelin' called the blues, oh Lord
780
00:50:22,260 --> 00:50:24,615
Since my baby said goodbye
781
00:50:25,820 --> 00:50:28,778
Lord, I don't know what I'll do
782
00:50:29,340 --> 00:50:32,457
I lost my heart, it seems
783
00:50:32,540 --> 00:50:36,692
I've grown so used to you somehow
784
00:50:36,820 --> 00:50:40,210
Well, I'm nobody's sugar daddy now
785
00:50:40,300 --> 00:50:42,734
And I'm lonesome
786
00:50:42,820 --> 00:50:46,654
I got the lovesick blues
787
00:51:12,940 --> 00:51:14,419
Glen Burnie, Maryland,
788
00:51:14,500 --> 00:51:16,436
where local law enforcement
and the Air Force have turned up
789
00:51:16,460 --> 00:51:18,371
some unusual evidence,
which may shed light
790
00:51:18,460 --> 00:51:21,099
on the recent flying saucer sightings.
791
00:51:21,620 --> 00:51:23,531
Baseball's greatest manager, Connie Mack,
792
00:51:23,660 --> 00:51:26,697
was given a massive
ticker tape parade on Broadway.
793
00:51:26,780 --> 00:51:28,213
Fifty years of managing!
794
00:51:30,580 --> 00:51:33,856
And Grand Ole Opry performers
Roy Acuff, Minnie Pearl
795
00:51:33,940 --> 00:51:36,738
and young heartthrob, Hank Williams,
have been on a tour
796
00:51:36,820 --> 00:51:38,538
of US airbases in Germany.
797
00:51:40,100 --> 00:51:43,012
Here's Hank and his wife, Audrey,
moving into a new house
798
00:51:43,100 --> 00:51:45,933
on Franklin Road in Nashville, Tennessee.
799
00:51:47,300 --> 00:51:49,211
Good luck, young lovers!
800
00:52:03,300 --> 00:52:05,291
Santa baby
801
00:52:05,380 --> 00:52:10,408
Just slip a sable under the tree for me
802
00:52:11,380 --> 00:52:12,654
Merry Christmas, Fred.
803
00:52:12,740 --> 00:52:14,492
Been an awful good girl
804
00:52:14,820 --> 00:52:16,572
Santa baby
805
00:52:16,660 --> 00:52:20,653
So hurry down the chimney tonight
806
00:52:26,420 --> 00:52:28,331
Santa baby
807
00:52:28,420 --> 00:52:33,255
I want a yacht and really that's not a lot
808
00:52:35,180 --> 00:52:37,774
Been an angel all year
809
00:52:37,900 --> 00:52:39,777
Santa baby
810
00:52:39,900 --> 00:52:43,336
So hurry down the chimney tonight
811
00:53:06,940 --> 00:53:09,295
Jesus, Hank, I've been looking for you.
812
00:53:09,380 --> 00:53:10,859
What are you doing out here?
813
00:53:10,940 --> 00:53:12,851
I love this thing. I love it.
814
00:53:13,700 --> 00:53:16,260
- Come over here, push my button.
- No, you're crazy.
815
00:53:16,340 --> 00:53:17,978
I'm gonna go back inside.
816
00:53:18,060 --> 00:53:19,780
All right, well, bring me a drink, will ya?
817
00:53:19,900 --> 00:53:21,458
Well, no, you don't need one.
818
00:53:21,540 --> 00:53:23,690
Now, can you come back inside
before you get sick?
819
00:53:24,620 --> 00:53:26,451
This is inspirational.
820
00:53:26,900 --> 00:53:29,858
She builds me up,
she brings me down...
821
00:53:29,940 --> 00:53:32,773
Baby, I'm so thrilled
that you're inspired now.
822
00:53:32,860 --> 00:53:34,796
Now, could you please
come back in and join the party?
823
00:53:34,820 --> 00:53:36,048
Hey, honey?
824
00:53:36,140 --> 00:53:37,732
Did you like that necklace I got you?
825
00:53:37,820 --> 00:53:39,776
- Yeah, I love it.
- Do ya?
826
00:53:39,860 --> 00:53:40,975
Yeah.
827
00:53:41,060 --> 00:53:43,051
Well, come over here and push my button.
828
00:53:43,140 --> 00:53:45,176
No way. It's freezing, baby.
829
00:53:45,300 --> 00:53:47,655
- Forget it, then!
- What, so now you're gonna be mad?
830
00:53:47,740 --> 00:53:49,731
- No, I'm not mad.
- Okay, well, good,
831
00:53:49,820 --> 00:53:51,676
'cause I'm gonna go back inside,
and you, you just...
832
00:53:51,700 --> 00:53:53,656
You keep on playing
with that button of yours.
833
00:53:53,740 --> 00:53:55,676
- Well, good, 'cause I love my button.
- Well, then you keep on
834
00:53:55,700 --> 00:53:57,053
lovin' it!
835
00:54:02,420 --> 00:54:05,492
You'll meet
many just like me
836
00:54:05,580 --> 00:54:08,174
Upon life's busy street...
837
00:54:09,780 --> 00:54:11,008
Yeah.
838
00:54:11,780 --> 00:54:15,090
Yeah, Luke the Drifter was a pseudonym
839
00:54:15,180 --> 00:54:18,297
that Hank sometimes used
to record certain songs.
840
00:54:18,380 --> 00:54:20,530
They didn't sell well,
but they seemed to offer
841
00:54:20,620 --> 00:54:22,690
some emotional relief for Hank.
842
00:54:23,220 --> 00:54:26,098
Hank's first record for us
was Move It On Over.
843
00:54:26,180 --> 00:54:29,695
And then in our second session,
he recorded I Saw the Light.
844
00:54:29,780 --> 00:54:32,180
And Audrey Williams, did you work with her?
845
00:54:32,260 --> 00:54:34,137
How should I say this?
846
00:54:34,540 --> 00:54:38,897
We were happy to have
Decca release her material.
847
00:54:39,020 --> 00:54:40,453
Miss Ragland!
848
00:54:41,340 --> 00:54:43,296
Could you take the child?
849
00:55:06,740 --> 00:55:08,731
- Operator.
- Hi, Operator.
850
00:55:08,820 --> 00:55:11,129
Sheraton Hotel, Oklahoma City, please.
851
00:55:11,500 --> 00:55:13,968
Well, I had me a woman
852
00:55:14,060 --> 00:55:16,494
Who done me wrong
853
00:55:17,500 --> 00:55:19,411
I wish I had the words
854
00:55:19,500 --> 00:55:22,810
To fix this song...
855
00:55:33,780 --> 00:55:35,540
Sorry, ma'am, still no answer.
856
00:55:35,660 --> 00:55:36,854
Care to leave a message?
857
00:55:36,940 --> 00:55:40,216
Yes. Could you tell him,
858
00:55:40,300 --> 00:55:43,690
"I need to talk to you,
you son of a bitch"?
859
00:55:46,580 --> 00:55:49,014
- Did you get that?
- Uh, yes, ma'am.
860
00:55:49,100 --> 00:55:50,169
Good.
861
00:56:41,100 --> 00:56:42,613
No, thanks.
862
00:57:29,100 --> 00:57:30,977
Afternoon, Mr. Nowlin.
863
00:57:31,260 --> 00:57:33,216
This ain't gonna cut it, fellas.
864
00:57:33,300 --> 00:57:35,291
Yes, sir. I'm real sorry. I understand.
865
00:57:35,380 --> 00:57:37,814
I... You see, Hank's come down
with something real bad,
866
00:57:37,900 --> 00:57:42,815
and, well, he's just too damn sick
to perform up to our usual standards.
867
00:57:43,700 --> 00:57:46,055
I don't know what's up with you, Williams,
868
00:57:46,140 --> 00:57:50,133
but you're going up on that stage,
and you're gonna give these folks,
869
00:57:50,220 --> 00:57:54,736
who've been waiting hours for your ass,
a fine piece of yourself.
870
00:57:55,500 --> 00:57:57,138
You understand?
871
00:57:58,100 --> 00:57:59,692
Thank you, sir.
872
00:58:00,340 --> 00:58:02,012
That the doctor?
873
00:58:02,500 --> 00:58:05,856
Or whatever he is
that does these kinds of things.
874
00:58:07,180 --> 00:58:08,977
Well, come on in.
875
00:58:09,860 --> 00:58:11,896
Let's get this over with.
876
00:58:13,860 --> 00:58:15,930
I don't want to
wait a whole lot longer.
877
00:58:24,860 --> 00:58:27,010
Ladies and gentlemen,
I have an announcement.
878
00:58:27,580 --> 00:58:29,059
Hank Williams is here!
879
00:58:32,100 --> 00:58:35,297
And he is ready to give you the show
you've been hoping for.
880
00:58:35,380 --> 00:58:37,336
Hank Williams, everyone!
881
00:58:53,100 --> 00:58:54,897
Come on, Hank!
882
00:59:01,540 --> 00:59:04,418
Any of you folks know
my half-brother, Luke?
883
00:59:06,260 --> 00:59:08,251
My good friend, Luke the Drifter?
884
00:59:10,860 --> 00:59:12,740
Hell, I don't know
where they got the Luke part,
885
00:59:12,820 --> 00:59:16,574
but I can sure tell ya
where they got the Drifter part.
886
00:59:22,740 --> 00:59:24,970
I'd like to tell you a story.
887
00:59:27,700 --> 00:59:29,895
About a family I once knew.
888
00:59:32,100 --> 00:59:35,979
Why don't we call 'em William and Mary
889
00:59:36,780 --> 00:59:39,055
and their little daughter Sue.
890
00:59:41,420 --> 00:59:45,208
Now, Mary was just a plain mother,
891
00:59:46,100 --> 00:59:48,773
and Bill, well, he was a usual dad.
892
00:59:50,940 --> 00:59:54,137
And they had their own
little family quarrels,
893
00:59:54,220 --> 00:59:57,337
but neither one ever really got mad.
894
00:59:58,340 --> 01:00:02,219
And then one day something happened.
895
01:00:04,060 --> 01:00:06,290
And it was nothing, of course.
896
01:00:08,020 --> 01:00:13,970
But one word led to another,
and the last word led to a divorce.
897
01:00:18,020 --> 01:00:23,572
Now, here were two grown-up people
who 'd failed to use common sense.
898
01:00:25,300 --> 01:00:29,851
They strengthened their own selfish pride
899
01:00:32,340 --> 01:00:34,729
at little Sue's expense.
900
01:00:42,740 --> 01:00:46,938
...eight, nine, 10, 11, 12...
901
01:00:48,340 --> 01:00:50,171
They sold me 13 roses.
902
01:00:51,980 --> 01:00:54,016
You know, we'll save one for Hazel.
903
01:00:56,180 --> 01:00:57,738
Thanks for doing all the driving, Don.
904
01:00:57,820 --> 01:01:00,288
Sure. You want me to stick around?
905
01:01:00,540 --> 01:01:02,178
Nah, you're fine.
906
01:01:04,740 --> 01:01:06,696
Hank, I've been thinking.
907
01:01:06,780 --> 01:01:07,929
Uh-oh.
908
01:01:08,100 --> 01:01:09,852
We've been running pretty hard.
909
01:01:09,940 --> 01:01:13,569
Maybe I've been too reluctant
to speak up about some things.
910
01:01:15,100 --> 01:01:16,499
You've been fine.
911
01:01:16,580 --> 01:01:18,013
Whatcha gonna do?
912
01:01:20,020 --> 01:01:21,499
You know,
913
01:01:22,540 --> 01:01:24,690
my uncle told me
914
01:01:25,700 --> 01:01:28,214
Grant was drunk
915
01:01:28,820 --> 01:01:31,459
every afternoon by 3:00.
916
01:01:33,580 --> 01:01:35,969
But he still took Vicksburg.
917
01:01:37,380 --> 01:01:39,371
Yeah, I guess he did.
918
01:01:44,460 --> 01:01:46,451
I'll see ya, then.
919
01:01:46,540 --> 01:01:48,053
I'll see ya.
920
01:02:05,820 --> 01:02:06,935
Hey.
921
01:02:08,060 --> 01:02:09,732
How long you been here?
922
01:02:10,980 --> 01:02:12,459
A little bit.
923
01:02:13,180 --> 01:02:15,296
It took you long enough.
924
01:02:18,260 --> 01:02:20,251
I just got off the road.
925
01:02:24,740 --> 01:02:26,492
- How are you?
- How'd you do?
926
01:02:27,660 --> 01:02:29,457
We made out okay.
927
01:02:30,340 --> 01:02:31,932
How's my boy?
928
01:02:32,300 --> 01:02:33,699
He's okay.
929
01:02:34,020 --> 01:02:35,169
How much?
930
01:02:35,260 --> 01:02:36,579
Where's he at?
931
01:02:36,660 --> 01:02:39,493
He's at the house. Where you think?
932
01:02:43,100 --> 01:02:46,217
Billboard says we did
$11,000 paid last week.
933
01:02:46,460 --> 01:02:49,099
I heard you and Luke
had some trouble in Texas.
934
01:02:52,620 --> 01:02:54,975
Yeah.
935
01:03:04,860 --> 01:03:06,612
What is it, baby?
936
01:03:09,140 --> 01:03:10,459
You gonna be okay?
937
01:03:10,540 --> 01:03:12,576
Am I gonna be okay?
938
01:03:15,140 --> 01:03:16,858
Hell.
939
01:03:18,420 --> 01:03:23,289
You know, you come home
from God knows wherever you are,
940
01:03:25,300 --> 01:03:27,052
and then we sleep together.
941
01:03:34,940 --> 01:03:36,851
You haven't a damn clue.
942
01:03:39,140 --> 01:03:41,290
You did this to me, Hank.
943
01:03:44,660 --> 01:03:48,938
You're the bastard
that caused me to suffer like this.
944
01:03:50,540 --> 01:03:52,019
What are you saying?
945
01:03:56,700 --> 01:03:59,009
God, you're barely even here.
946
01:04:01,620 --> 01:04:03,975
You're barely even a father now.
947
01:04:06,540 --> 01:04:08,417
And, well,
948
01:04:09,540 --> 01:04:12,691
you couldn't have handled
being more of one.
949
01:04:18,700 --> 01:04:20,372
What did you do?
950
01:04:22,620 --> 01:04:26,090
You can't... You can't do that without me.
951
01:04:26,180 --> 01:04:27,898
Well, it's done.
952
01:04:51,940 --> 01:04:55,376
Thank you,
ladies and gentlemen. Thank you very much.
953
01:04:55,460 --> 01:04:56,973
Thank you, friends.
954
01:04:57,060 --> 01:04:59,176
And that about wraps it up for today.
955
01:05:01,340 --> 01:05:05,174
All right, all right,
there a little more in store, isn't there?
956
01:05:05,260 --> 01:05:09,651
I almost forgot about the man y'all
come to say hello to and rightly honor.
957
01:05:09,740 --> 01:05:12,049
He's my very, very good friend.
958
01:05:12,540 --> 01:05:16,010
One of the finest songwriters
I've ever had the pleasure to know.
959
01:05:16,260 --> 01:05:20,412
So, let's welcome,
at his Montgomery Homecoming Day,
960
01:05:20,500 --> 01:05:23,731
a great and loyal son of Alabama,
961
01:05:24,420 --> 01:05:25,773
Hank Williams!
962
01:05:51,980 --> 01:05:53,333
Hank Williams!
963
01:06:02,380 --> 01:06:03,813
Hey, buddy.
964
01:06:17,340 --> 01:06:18,819
Well, hello, Montgomery.
965
01:06:23,380 --> 01:06:25,291
It's always good to be back here.
966
01:06:25,380 --> 01:06:26,893
I thank y'all so much.
967
01:06:27,020 --> 01:06:28,248
I thank you.
968
01:06:28,340 --> 01:06:32,128
I much appreciate the warm welcome
you've given to me and my family.
969
01:06:32,220 --> 01:06:33,539
My mother, Lillie.
970
01:06:36,180 --> 01:06:38,216
My beautiful wife, Audrey.
971
01:06:40,980 --> 01:06:42,459
My little lady, Lycrecia.
972
01:06:45,340 --> 01:06:47,376
My big boy, Bocephus!
973
01:06:56,780 --> 01:06:59,658
Now, right now, I got a little song for ya.
974
01:06:59,740 --> 01:07:01,731
It's been awful good to me and the boys.
975
01:07:01,820 --> 01:07:04,334
It's bought us quite a
few beans and biscuits.
976
01:07:04,420 --> 01:07:05,614
It's called
977
01:07:05,700 --> 01:07:08,692
Good Looking, You Got Anything Cooking,
How About Cooking It Up With Me?
978
01:07:17,940 --> 01:07:20,500
Hey, good lookin'
979
01:07:21,220 --> 01:07:23,734
Whatcha got cookin'?
980
01:07:24,220 --> 01:07:28,930
How's about cookin' something up with me?
981
01:07:30,220 --> 01:07:33,212
Said, hey, sweet baby
982
01:07:33,940 --> 01:07:36,215
Don't you think maybe
983
01:07:36,580 --> 01:07:41,893
We could find us a brand-new recipe?
984
01:07:43,060 --> 01:07:46,336
I got a hot-rod Ford and a two-dollar bill
985
01:07:46,420 --> 01:07:49,457
And I know a spot right over the hill
986
01:07:49,660 --> 01:07:52,094
There's soda pop and the dancing's free
987
01:07:52,180 --> 01:07:55,377
So if you wanna have fun
Come along with me
988
01:07:55,460 --> 01:07:58,418
Said, hey, good lookin'
989
01:07:59,140 --> 01:08:01,574
Whatcha got cookin'?
990
01:08:02,180 --> 01:08:06,651
How's about cookin' something up with me?
991
01:08:07,260 --> 01:08:08,613
Don Helms.
992
01:08:20,460 --> 01:08:23,418
I'm free and I'm ready
993
01:08:23,620 --> 01:08:26,612
So we can go steady
994
01:08:27,180 --> 01:08:31,890
How's about savin' all your time for me?
995
01:08:35,540 --> 01:08:37,690
I like that hotel pretty good.
996
01:08:37,780 --> 01:08:40,453
You think all hotels are good.
997
01:08:40,540 --> 01:08:41,655
Oh, yeah.
998
01:08:43,780 --> 01:08:45,213
Ah, here we are.
999
01:08:45,620 --> 01:08:47,372
Where are you gentlemen going?
1000
01:08:47,460 --> 01:08:49,052
Perry Como Show.
1001
01:08:50,980 --> 01:08:52,095
Thank you, sir.
1002
01:08:52,180 --> 01:08:53,329
Thank you.
1003
01:08:59,180 --> 01:09:01,740
- It was a good show, man.
- It was.
1004
01:09:01,820 --> 01:09:04,573
You sure couldn't get
that damn jingle right, could you?
1005
01:09:04,660 --> 01:09:07,020
Don't you know there's 20 smokes
in a pack of Chesterfields?
1006
01:09:07,060 --> 01:09:10,291
I know damn well there's
20 smokes in a pack of Chesterfields.
1007
01:09:10,380 --> 01:09:12,052
And I'll tell you something else.
1008
01:09:12,140 --> 01:09:14,893
Ol' Hank didn't come all the way
from South Alabama to New York City
1009
01:09:15,020 --> 01:09:18,535
to sing in a damn cigarette commercial,
that's for damn sure.
1010
01:09:19,020 --> 01:09:21,220
Gentlemen want another round,
or have you hit your limit
1011
01:09:21,300 --> 01:09:23,416
- on soda water?
- Yes, ma'am! We do.
1012
01:09:23,500 --> 01:09:25,013
Yeah, I'm good.
1013
01:09:25,340 --> 01:09:26,932
Have a damn drink, boys.
1014
01:09:27,020 --> 01:09:28,976
Babysittin' hour's about up.
1015
01:09:29,060 --> 01:09:30,254
Thank you.
1016
01:09:30,340 --> 01:09:31,693
Yes, please, ma'am.
1017
01:09:31,780 --> 01:09:33,213
Mr. Williams.
1018
01:09:33,300 --> 01:09:34,892
James Dolan from the Tribune.
1019
01:09:34,980 --> 01:09:36,572
Really sorry I'm late.
1020
01:09:37,820 --> 01:09:40,539
You don't like doing this much, do you?
1021
01:09:42,180 --> 01:09:44,216
Well, it comes with the job.
1022
01:09:47,020 --> 01:09:50,330
You know what I don't like
1023
01:09:50,660 --> 01:09:55,176
is people pretending one thing
and they got something else on their mind.
1024
01:09:55,540 --> 01:09:59,055
You do what I do, you get where I am,
you see plenty of that.
1025
01:10:00,940 --> 01:10:04,489
People thinking they'll make a nice pie
with a slice of me.
1026
01:10:04,700 --> 01:10:08,898
Well, I'm only looking to give people
some insight into you.
1027
01:10:09,380 --> 01:10:12,531
Why you write what you write,
sing what you sing.
1028
01:10:12,780 --> 01:10:18,059
I write what I write and I sing what I sing
'cause that's what I do.
1029
01:10:19,220 --> 01:10:21,211
Ain't much choice, really.
1030
01:10:22,140 --> 01:10:23,414
As an artist.
1031
01:10:23,500 --> 01:10:25,172
That's your word.
1032
01:10:29,060 --> 01:10:32,257
You are offering your fans something.
1033
01:10:32,340 --> 01:10:34,410
What would you say that is?
1034
01:10:47,260 --> 01:10:48,932
Mr. Dolan,
1035
01:10:51,180 --> 01:10:53,216
everybody has a little darkness in them.
1036
01:10:53,980 --> 01:10:56,574
Now, they may not like it,
1037
01:10:56,660 --> 01:10:59,220
don't want to know about it,
1038
01:10:59,300 --> 01:11:01,177
but it's there.
1039
01:11:02,500 --> 01:11:05,617
Now, I'm talking about things like anger,
1040
01:11:06,060 --> 01:11:09,769
misery, sorrow, shame.
1041
01:11:11,900 --> 01:11:13,856
And they hear it.
1042
01:11:14,500 --> 01:11:16,218
I show it to 'em.
1043
01:11:17,740 --> 01:11:19,856
And they don't have to take it home.
1044
01:11:32,540 --> 01:11:35,418
You think that's what they expect from you?
1045
01:11:39,820 --> 01:11:42,459
They expect I can help their troubles.
1046
01:11:42,980 --> 01:11:46,336
Now, the reason I know that
is 'cause they write.
1047
01:11:47,260 --> 01:11:52,095
If their husband dies and they're left
with eight starving kids, they write.
1048
01:11:52,620 --> 01:11:55,771
If their sweetheart's done 'em wrong,
they write.
1049
01:11:55,980 --> 01:11:58,255
I don't know,
1050
01:11:58,340 --> 01:12:01,616
but I reckon they think
I'm some sort of Red Cross.
1051
01:12:05,820 --> 01:12:07,412
You can write this down.
1052
01:12:09,020 --> 01:12:12,137
Folk music, hillbilly,
1053
01:12:12,660 --> 01:12:14,298
it's sincere.
1054
01:12:15,500 --> 01:12:17,695
There ain't nothing phony.
1055
01:12:18,700 --> 01:12:21,737
Man sings a sad song,
1056
01:12:21,820 --> 01:12:23,378
he knows the sad.
1057
01:12:27,220 --> 01:12:30,178
There's, well, a lot of speculation
1058
01:12:30,820 --> 01:12:35,940
about the hard lives
that western or folk singers live.
1059
01:12:36,020 --> 01:12:38,011
What do you mean, "hard"?
1060
01:12:38,140 --> 01:12:41,450
Well, I mean, more like the women, whiskey.
1061
01:12:41,540 --> 01:12:44,691
If you're getting at something,
then get at it.
1062
01:12:45,300 --> 01:12:49,054
There are a lot of rumors, Mr. Williams,
1063
01:12:50,340 --> 01:12:52,535
that you have struggled with alcohol.
1064
01:12:53,820 --> 01:12:56,288
I didn't know you were
in the rumor business, Mr. Dolan.
1065
01:12:56,380 --> 01:12:57,859
I'm not. I don't mean to offend...
1066
01:12:57,940 --> 01:12:59,851
But since you obviously are,
1067
01:12:59,940 --> 01:13:01,612
why don't you say they're all true,
1068
01:13:01,700 --> 01:13:03,981
- every single one of 'em?
- Because that's not what I do.
1069
01:13:04,060 --> 01:13:07,052
You can do whatever you want to do,
1070
01:13:07,580 --> 01:13:09,650
but I'm done doing this.
1071
01:13:41,420 --> 01:13:42,836
Hunt 'em up, now. Hunt 'em up.
1072
01:13:42,860 --> 01:13:43,929
There you go, Zeke.
1073
01:13:44,020 --> 01:13:45,373
Hunt 'em up.
1074
01:13:47,460 --> 01:13:49,018
Here we go. Hunt 'em up.
1075
01:13:49,100 --> 01:13:50,419
Hunt 'em up.
1076
01:13:51,660 --> 01:13:52,854
Sit.
1077
01:13:54,020 --> 01:13:55,931
- Try gettin' birdy.
- Sit.
1078
01:14:01,380 --> 01:14:03,336
- God blessed!
- Birdy.
1079
01:14:03,420 --> 01:14:04,996
- Damn it!
- You're supposed to shoot 'em,
1080
01:14:05,020 --> 01:14:06,658
- not scare 'em off.
- Yeah, I'm trying.
1081
01:14:06,740 --> 01:14:08,173
Whoa, Zeke.
1082
01:14:09,300 --> 01:14:10,972
He's onto something.
1083
01:14:17,980 --> 01:14:19,777
Shit.
1084
01:14:19,860 --> 01:14:21,259
It's a coon.
1085
01:14:24,180 --> 01:14:25,295
Hank?
1086
01:14:26,220 --> 01:14:27,414
Hey, Hank!
1087
01:14:27,820 --> 01:14:28,935
Oh, God.
1088
01:14:32,140 --> 01:14:34,574
What are you doing down there, man?
1089
01:14:35,340 --> 01:14:36,978
- Here.
- No...
1090
01:14:37,140 --> 01:14:39,051
Give me a second, Burr.
1091
01:14:39,380 --> 01:14:40,380
Oh...
1092
01:14:41,180 --> 01:14:42,852
My back is fucked.
1093
01:14:47,820 --> 01:14:49,333
Mr. Williams?
1094
01:14:55,660 --> 01:14:57,491
Your back's not broken.
1095
01:14:59,380 --> 01:15:01,848
Well, I couldn't feel it if it was.
1096
01:15:01,940 --> 01:15:05,330
Yes, you've got quite a bit
of morphine in your system.
1097
01:15:07,380 --> 01:15:09,769
Have to get the recipe from ya.
1098
01:15:11,220 --> 01:15:14,053
How much do you know
about your condition?
1099
01:15:15,940 --> 01:15:17,851
Always had that bump.
1100
01:15:19,980 --> 01:15:22,972
Docs early on didn't want to
do much about it.
1101
01:15:23,700 --> 01:15:24,928
Well, there's a name for that.
1102
01:15:25,020 --> 01:15:26,931
It's called spina bifida occulta.
1103
01:15:27,060 --> 01:15:30,211
It means your vertebrae
aren't completely closed.
1104
01:15:31,060 --> 01:15:34,177
Now, people with the mildest form
of this type of spina bifida
1105
01:15:34,260 --> 01:15:35,852
often don't even know they have it.
1106
01:15:39,940 --> 01:15:43,376
Well, now I know it's got a name.
1107
01:15:44,460 --> 01:15:46,052
It's chronic, Mr. Williams.
1108
01:15:46,140 --> 01:15:47,459
It'll never go away.
1109
01:15:47,580 --> 01:15:49,298
Now, we can operate,
1110
01:15:49,380 --> 01:15:52,577
try and alleviate the pain
as much as possible.
1111
01:15:56,180 --> 01:15:58,136
Cure me or kill me, Doc.
1112
01:16:00,340 --> 01:16:03,616
I can't go on like I've been doing anymore.
1113
01:16:23,340 --> 01:16:24,534
Hey.
1114
01:16:27,620 --> 01:16:29,258
How you doing?
1115
01:16:32,980 --> 01:16:35,699
I suppose you've been out
with your friends, huh?
1116
01:16:35,820 --> 01:16:36,820
Mmm-hmm.
1117
01:16:39,460 --> 01:16:40,859
At a joint?
1118
01:16:40,940 --> 01:16:42,419
No, I was at a house.
1119
01:16:43,300 --> 01:16:44,528
Drinking?
1120
01:16:45,740 --> 01:16:47,253
Yeah, a little bit.
1121
01:16:51,580 --> 01:16:54,856
Exactly how sick would I have to be
1122
01:16:54,980 --> 01:16:57,619
for you to stick around
and provide a little comfort?
1123
01:17:00,620 --> 01:17:05,740
Well, a little comfort
is something that runs two ways.
1124
01:17:09,140 --> 01:17:10,778
Not in your case.
1125
01:17:10,860 --> 01:17:12,009
Damn.
1126
01:17:13,300 --> 01:17:14,972
Screw you, Hank.
1127
01:17:16,300 --> 01:17:17,779
Come over here and you can.
1128
01:17:17,860 --> 01:17:19,260
Oh, yeah, I doubt that.
1129
01:17:19,860 --> 01:17:23,296
Professional like you,
I'm sure it'd be no problem.
1130
01:17:26,660 --> 01:17:28,059
You son of a bitch.
1131
01:17:28,180 --> 01:17:29,932
All you do is you go out on the road
1132
01:17:30,020 --> 01:17:32,488
and you sleep with
a different woman every night,
1133
01:17:32,580 --> 01:17:35,492
and then you finally get home
and criticize me?
1134
01:17:35,580 --> 01:17:37,969
Well, you want it all, don't you, baby?
1135
01:17:38,460 --> 01:17:40,178
- You want to whore around...
- Uh...
1136
01:17:40,260 --> 01:17:42,535
...and still be Mrs. Hank Williams.
1137
01:17:44,660 --> 01:17:46,218
You know what?
1138
01:17:46,540 --> 01:17:49,976
You can keep your great Mrs. Hank Williams.
1139
01:17:50,740 --> 01:17:52,731
I'll give it back to you.
1140
01:18:00,540 --> 01:18:02,610
Baby, what are you doing up?
1141
01:18:02,700 --> 01:18:04,577
Come here. Let's get you back to bed.
1142
01:18:14,420 --> 01:18:17,298
I know I can't make D.C. or Baltimore, Jim.
1143
01:18:17,380 --> 01:18:20,338
Now, why can't we just
tell them the truth and live with it?
1144
01:18:20,420 --> 01:18:22,540
I'm sorry, Hank,
but I think we got to do it this way.
1145
01:18:22,580 --> 01:18:24,650
You're not hearing me.
I don't want to do it!
1146
01:18:24,740 --> 01:18:27,493
And I sure as hell don't want
Audrey standing in for me,
1147
01:18:27,580 --> 01:18:29,491
- or anybody else at the show.
- Hank,
1148
01:18:29,580 --> 01:18:31,457
I don't see a way around it.
1149
01:18:31,540 --> 01:18:33,053
It's simple.
1150
01:18:33,580 --> 01:18:36,697
I can't make it 'cause I'm laid up.
1151
01:18:37,060 --> 01:18:39,449
Now, I get the boys as soon as I can.
1152
01:18:39,540 --> 01:18:41,770
I go down there on my own money.
1153
01:18:41,860 --> 01:18:43,134
I'll make it right.
1154
01:18:43,220 --> 01:18:45,859
Connie Gay is putting these shows on.
1155
01:18:45,940 --> 01:18:47,498
Now, he and I go back forever.
1156
01:18:47,580 --> 01:18:49,356
Now, there's nobody else available.
1157
01:18:49,380 --> 01:18:51,848
I mean, I got the Opry spread
all over on New Year's Eve.
1158
01:18:51,940 --> 01:18:54,010
Toledo, Baltimore, Raleigh.
1159
01:18:59,460 --> 01:19:01,610
Says one every three hours.
1160
01:19:04,500 --> 01:19:09,051
I figure three every hour
ought to be that much better.
1161
01:19:16,900 --> 01:19:18,379
You good to go?
1162
01:19:18,500 --> 01:19:20,934
- Hell.
- Yes, sir.
1163
01:19:21,660 --> 01:19:23,013
Look,
1164
01:19:23,100 --> 01:19:26,251
you don't show, everybody will think
it's the whiskey talking,
1165
01:19:26,380 --> 01:19:28,575
and Connie Gay will be stuck bad.
1166
01:19:28,660 --> 01:19:31,732
And whether you like it or not,
I represent the Opry.
1167
01:19:31,820 --> 01:19:33,299
And as fond of you as I am,
1168
01:19:33,380 --> 01:19:35,735
if you want to stay a part of this,
you got to do it.
1169
01:19:35,820 --> 01:19:37,856
You need to record this.
1170
01:19:37,940 --> 01:19:39,851
We'll play it that night.
1171
01:19:39,980 --> 01:19:42,653
You always been a son of a bitch, J.D.
1172
01:19:43,420 --> 01:19:46,412
Well, that may be,
but it's 'cause I have to be.
1173
01:19:47,220 --> 01:19:49,495
But I always been solid by you.
1174
01:20:04,620 --> 01:20:06,099
Give me a pen.
1175
01:20:08,340 --> 01:20:11,138
I think I can write my own damn apology.
1176
01:20:13,140 --> 01:20:15,779
I'd really been looking forward to
1177
01:20:15,860 --> 01:20:18,374
visiting you folks in Washington today.
1178
01:20:19,340 --> 01:20:22,730
But, well, a couple weeks ago, I...
1179
01:20:22,820 --> 01:20:25,653
I had to have an operation on my back.
1180
01:20:26,260 --> 01:20:29,650
Fact is, I been in bed a couple weeks,
1181
01:20:31,580 --> 01:20:36,973
and, well, I sure am sorry
I couldn't be there tonight.
1182
01:20:37,700 --> 01:20:40,897
I hope y'all enjoy the rest of the show.
1183
01:20:42,220 --> 01:20:46,213
And thanks for buying my records.
1184
01:20:48,940 --> 01:20:51,329
Audrey,
I should've gone straight home.
1185
01:20:51,420 --> 01:20:55,971
No, it's fine. We'll just have a drink,
and they will just have to deal with it.
1186
01:20:56,060 --> 01:20:57,334
If you say so.
1187
01:20:57,420 --> 01:20:58,535
Yeah.
1188
01:21:03,220 --> 01:21:04,335
Hank?
1189
01:21:07,340 --> 01:21:08,489
Hank?
1190
01:21:10,540 --> 01:21:14,055
Why don't you two wait in here,
and I'll go see where he is.
1191
01:21:17,740 --> 01:21:18,809
Hank?
1192
01:21:18,900 --> 01:21:21,016
Doesn't appear
anyone's here to greet Mommy.
1193
01:21:21,100 --> 01:21:23,295
Yeah.
1194
01:21:26,060 --> 01:21:28,130
Where the hell is he?
1195
01:21:28,220 --> 01:21:29,414
What is he doing?
1196
01:21:46,620 --> 01:21:48,929
What the hell are you doing?
1197
01:21:51,900 --> 01:21:55,051
Killing bottles, waiting for
my loving wife to come home.
1198
01:21:55,140 --> 01:21:56,778
Okay, well, I'm home now.
1199
01:21:58,060 --> 01:21:59,254
Chri...
1200
01:22:01,540 --> 01:22:02,689
Hi, ladies.
1201
01:22:03,580 --> 01:22:04,695
Hello, Hank.
1202
01:22:04,780 --> 01:22:06,338
What are you... Are you drunk?
1203
01:22:06,420 --> 01:22:07,694
Are you?
1204
01:22:09,060 --> 01:22:10,956
Do you think that you could
wait till we're alone
1205
01:22:10,980 --> 01:22:13,016
before you start acting up?
1206
01:22:15,300 --> 01:22:17,655
You really have no couth, do you?
1207
01:22:17,740 --> 01:22:18,855
You son of a bitch.
1208
01:22:18,940 --> 01:22:20,339
I suppose you're right, dear.
1209
01:22:22,340 --> 01:22:26,333
Now die, you God-awful tiki wiki shit!
1210
01:22:43,300 --> 01:22:45,291
Hank Williams,
1211
01:22:46,140 --> 01:22:49,655
I will never live another day with you.
1212
01:22:51,300 --> 01:22:52,528
Never.
1213
01:23:02,740 --> 01:23:05,413
That's when he moved in with Ray Price.
1214
01:23:05,500 --> 01:23:09,413
Ray was a bit younger,
and innocent in many ways,
1215
01:23:09,500 --> 01:23:13,698
and he really looked up to Hank,
as a lot of the guys did.
1216
01:23:14,460 --> 01:23:19,534
And the house was a nice place
in the Natchez Trace area in Nashville.
1217
01:23:26,460 --> 01:23:28,371
One thing's for sure.
1218
01:23:28,820 --> 01:23:31,698
Ray wasn't ready
for what Hank was bringing.
1219
01:23:37,100 --> 01:23:41,093
I've got something
to shout about
1220
01:23:41,220 --> 01:23:43,780
A whole lot of lovin'
to talk about
1221
01:23:43,860 --> 01:23:45,578
My baby's comin' home
1222
01:23:45,660 --> 01:23:48,049
And that's what's
knocking me out
1223
01:24:12,740 --> 01:24:14,458
She's so sweet
and she's so fine
1224
01:24:14,980 --> 01:24:17,335
...likes everyone...
1225
01:24:18,660 --> 01:24:21,413
Hank, can you believe
I was gonna be a veterinarian?
1226
01:24:21,500 --> 01:24:22,694
- Hey, Ray?
- Look at me now.
1227
01:24:22,780 --> 01:24:24,452
I got the best party on the block.
1228
01:24:24,540 --> 01:24:26,610
- Look at you now!
- I should write a song
1229
01:24:26,700 --> 01:24:28,611
- called Look At Me Now.
- You should write...
1230
01:24:28,700 --> 01:24:32,010
Look at me now...
1231
01:24:33,260 --> 01:24:35,820
"His conduct was intolerable.
1232
01:24:36,300 --> 01:24:39,292
"He became abusive, cursing me,
1233
01:24:39,660 --> 01:24:42,618
"and even striking me
on numerous occasions."
1234
01:24:42,740 --> 01:24:44,890
- That's a damn lie, Ray.
- I'm sure it is.
1235
01:24:44,980 --> 01:24:47,130
Why'd she have to go that far?
1236
01:24:47,220 --> 01:24:49,973
Well, Hank, that's divorce in this country,
as far as I can tell.
1237
01:24:50,060 --> 01:24:52,699
This says I made 92 grand last year.
1238
01:24:52,780 --> 01:24:54,577
Hell, I didn't make that.
1239
01:24:54,660 --> 01:24:57,811
House at 55 grand, three Cadillacs.
1240
01:25:00,420 --> 01:25:03,856
"In the past months,
defendant has been enjoying
1241
01:25:03,940 --> 01:25:06,579
"a life of wild extravagance."
1242
01:25:07,900 --> 01:25:09,777
Hey, Bobbie, come here.
1243
01:25:10,260 --> 01:25:11,659
Come on, get a seat.
1244
01:25:23,820 --> 01:25:25,048
I'm rich.
1245
01:25:26,380 --> 01:25:28,052
And I'm dangerous.
1246
01:25:32,820 --> 01:25:36,654
Well, I guess there's worse things
you could be.
1247
01:25:37,940 --> 01:25:40,010
Says that I had an affair
with a highway patrolman
1248
01:25:40,100 --> 01:25:41,931
when he was on the road.
1249
01:25:43,140 --> 01:25:45,051
Mmm, and look at this.
1250
01:25:45,140 --> 01:25:47,176
I insisted on singing with him
1251
01:25:47,260 --> 01:25:50,616
when I had neither a voice
or musical ability.
1252
01:25:52,740 --> 01:25:54,458
How you doing up there, cowboy?
1253
01:25:56,020 --> 01:25:58,739
Just can't believe this place is yours.
1254
01:25:59,900 --> 01:26:01,777
For about another hour.
1255
01:26:02,660 --> 01:26:04,935
Was gonna build a house
over by that pecan grove,
1256
01:26:05,020 --> 01:26:07,011
but that ain't happening now.
1257
01:26:07,620 --> 01:26:10,532
Well, you'll get another
one somewhere else.
1258
01:26:12,220 --> 01:26:13,812
Somewhere else.
1259
01:26:15,180 --> 01:26:16,932
I've been there before.
1260
01:26:17,020 --> 01:26:18,692
And it ain't much better.
1261
01:26:21,020 --> 01:26:25,855
You know, sometimes I wish
I was back at WSFA making $12 a week,
1262
01:26:26,340 --> 01:26:28,774
and knowing who my friends were.
1263
01:26:47,060 --> 01:26:50,450
- Hey, you know this man?
- By telephone only. He's okay.
1264
01:26:50,540 --> 01:26:52,849
I bet he's never heard one song.
1265
01:26:57,900 --> 01:26:59,811
You gentlemen may go in now.
1266
01:26:59,900 --> 01:27:02,494
- Thank you, ma'am.
- Thank you, ma'am.
1267
01:27:03,900 --> 01:27:05,015
Fred!
1268
01:27:05,100 --> 01:27:06,419
Sorry to keep you waiting.
1269
01:27:06,500 --> 01:27:07,876
- Welcome, welcome.
- How are you, Dore?
1270
01:27:07,900 --> 01:27:09,413
I'm fine, Fred, you know.
1271
01:27:10,740 --> 01:27:12,378
Hank, how are you?
1272
01:27:15,300 --> 01:27:16,938
I'm all right, Mr. Schary.
1273
01:27:17,060 --> 01:27:18,334
I'm all right.
1274
01:27:18,420 --> 01:27:19,569
Well, take your hat off.
1275
01:27:19,660 --> 01:27:21,616
Sit down. Just relax.
1276
01:27:25,540 --> 01:27:27,053
How was the flight in?
1277
01:27:27,140 --> 01:27:28,653
Uh, it was all right.
1278
01:27:28,780 --> 01:27:30,816
A little bumpy over Wichita.
1279
01:27:30,900 --> 01:27:32,036
Yeah?
1280
01:27:32,060 --> 01:27:33,573
Yeah, always is.
1281
01:27:36,460 --> 01:27:39,133
Hank, I'm very sorry to hear about
1282
01:27:39,220 --> 01:27:42,018
you and Audrey having troubles,
I mean, you know.
1283
01:27:42,100 --> 01:27:44,739
The business, it's tough on marriage.
1284
01:27:45,060 --> 01:27:47,972
Well, marriage is tough on marriage.
1285
01:27:49,900 --> 01:27:51,538
- Yep.
- Yeah.
1286
01:27:53,660 --> 01:27:54,775
Yeah.
1287
01:27:57,220 --> 01:27:59,859
What do you say
we just cut to the chase?
1288
01:27:59,940 --> 01:28:01,214
All right.
1289
01:28:01,300 --> 01:28:03,734
I saw your press release
announcing our deals.
1290
01:28:03,820 --> 01:28:05,036
You fellas played it up nicely.
1291
01:28:05,060 --> 01:28:07,733
We were generally pleased
with the response.
1292
01:28:11,300 --> 01:28:15,771
Well, we're thinking of a part
for Hank in Small Town Girls,
1293
01:28:16,140 --> 01:28:17,858
with Farley Granger and Jane Powell.
1294
01:28:17,940 --> 01:28:19,771
My wife loves Jane Powell.
1295
01:28:19,860 --> 01:28:21,259
Perfect.
1296
01:28:21,620 --> 01:28:23,292
So does America.
1297
01:28:23,380 --> 01:28:24,495
Yeah.
1298
01:28:25,340 --> 01:28:29,731
And as we discussed, Fred,
it would be no more than four weeks' work.
1299
01:28:29,820 --> 01:28:30,820
Right.
1300
01:28:30,860 --> 01:28:33,613
And a salary of $4,500 a week.
1301
01:28:34,100 --> 01:28:36,170
That's quite a lot of money, isn't it?
1302
01:28:37,980 --> 01:28:40,938
Well, it's not as much cash
as I can make on the road.
1303
01:28:41,140 --> 01:28:42,698
Is it, Pappy?
1304
01:28:44,500 --> 01:28:46,934
Well, I'm sure between Fred and I,
1305
01:28:47,020 --> 01:28:50,899
we can come to an arrangement,
if we're all serious.
1306
01:28:51,420 --> 01:28:52,773
So, Hank, how tall are you?
1307
01:28:54,260 --> 01:28:56,216
About the same as my mother.
1308
01:28:59,180 --> 01:29:01,091
Six feet, six-one, thereabout.
1309
01:29:01,180 --> 01:29:03,899
Is that with or without the hat?
1310
01:29:03,980 --> 01:29:05,996
Because I don't think
I've ever seen you without it.
1311
01:29:06,020 --> 01:29:07,851
Well, me neither.
1312
01:29:10,820 --> 01:29:12,492
Would you mind?
1313
01:29:14,420 --> 01:29:16,456
I'd like to see, well,
1314
01:29:17,220 --> 01:29:18,938
your general look.
1315
01:29:19,900 --> 01:29:21,333
Your hair.
1316
01:29:22,060 --> 01:29:23,618
You do have hair, right?
1317
01:29:24,340 --> 01:29:25,659
Oh, yes, sir.
1318
01:29:27,060 --> 01:29:29,699
I got a whole drawer full of it.
1319
01:29:30,740 --> 01:29:32,378
I'm serious, Hank.
1320
01:29:33,460 --> 01:29:34,893
Me, too.
1321
01:29:42,860 --> 01:29:44,657
You know, I read something today.
1322
01:29:44,940 --> 01:29:46,498
It said I was a genius.
1323
01:29:48,700 --> 01:29:51,453
Why do you figure that makes me fearful?
1324
01:29:52,940 --> 01:29:54,896
Probably the load.
1325
01:29:55,500 --> 01:29:57,411
I miss them so much, Mama.
1326
01:29:57,780 --> 01:29:59,054
So damn much.
1327
01:29:59,180 --> 01:30:00,499
I know you do.
1328
01:30:00,580 --> 01:30:02,076
- I know.
- Ladies and gentlemen,
1329
01:30:02,100 --> 01:30:04,076
let me just give you the lowdown
on this next fella's...
1330
01:30:04,100 --> 01:30:06,489
But you are better off without her, son.
1331
01:30:07,420 --> 01:30:09,570
She was never worth a half of you.
1332
01:30:11,180 --> 01:30:13,330
I got a little boy I worry about, too.
1333
01:30:13,420 --> 01:30:15,540
...he's got a new song out there
that he wrote for us.
1334
01:30:28,780 --> 01:30:29,780
Ha.
1335
01:30:30,620 --> 01:30:31,689
Yes, sir.
1336
01:30:31,780 --> 01:30:33,620
I got a brand-new song,
ain't never been aired.
1337
01:30:33,700 --> 01:30:35,656
Ain't never been aired?
1338
01:30:35,740 --> 01:30:37,298
No, but it just might need it.
1339
01:30:37,820 --> 01:30:39,014
Doggone it, Hank!
1340
01:30:39,340 --> 01:30:40,819
All right, boys, let it roll.
1341
01:30:46,420 --> 01:30:50,129
Well, why don't you love me
like you used to do?
1342
01:30:50,220 --> 01:30:53,132
How come you treat me
like a worn-out shoe?
1343
01:30:53,220 --> 01:30:56,496
My hair's still curly and
my eyes are still blue
1344
01:30:56,580 --> 01:30:59,617
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
1345
01:30:59,740 --> 01:31:02,732
I ain't had no lovin'
like a-huggin' and a-kissin'
1346
01:31:02,820 --> 01:31:06,210
In a long, long while
1347
01:31:06,300 --> 01:31:09,451
We don't get nearer or further
1348
01:31:09,540 --> 01:31:12,816
Or closer than a country mile
1349
01:31:13,940 --> 01:31:17,012
Why don't you spark me like you used to do?
1350
01:31:17,100 --> 01:31:20,376
And say sweet nothings
like you used to coo
1351
01:31:20,460 --> 01:31:22,257
I'm the same old trouble
1352
01:31:22,340 --> 01:31:23,932
That you've always been through
1353
01:31:24,020 --> 01:31:27,296
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
1354
01:31:27,380 --> 01:31:28,415
Don Helms.
1355
01:31:40,020 --> 01:31:41,135
Burt Hale.
1356
01:32:09,700 --> 01:32:13,454
Well, why don't you be
just like you used to be?
1357
01:32:13,540 --> 01:32:16,930
How come you find so many faults with me?
1358
01:32:17,020 --> 01:32:20,456
Somebody's changed
so let me give you a clue
1359
01:32:20,540 --> 01:32:23,134
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
1360
01:32:23,220 --> 01:32:24,778
I ain't had no lovin'
1361
01:32:24,860 --> 01:32:29,650
Like a-huggin' and a-kissin'
in a long, long while
1362
01:32:32,060 --> 01:32:33,076
I just laughed it off.
1363
01:32:33,100 --> 01:32:34,499
I don't know.
1364
01:32:36,100 --> 01:32:37,249
Hey, girl.
1365
01:32:40,820 --> 01:32:41,969
You here with anybody?
1366
01:32:42,060 --> 01:32:43,060
Faron Young.
1367
01:32:43,580 --> 01:32:45,332
Boy guesting up in Shreveport?
1368
01:32:45,420 --> 01:32:46,489
That's him.
1369
01:32:47,420 --> 01:32:50,059
And that's him right over there behind you.
1370
01:32:51,220 --> 01:32:52,220
Hey, Faron.
1371
01:32:52,260 --> 01:32:53,260
Hank.
1372
01:32:53,340 --> 01:32:55,251
- Good to meet you.
- Good to meet you.
1373
01:32:55,940 --> 01:32:57,089
Billie?
1374
01:32:57,900 --> 01:32:59,094
You gonna marry this girl?
1375
01:33:00,700 --> 01:33:01,894
Well, are you?
1376
01:33:01,980 --> 01:33:03,538
Well, not likely.
1377
01:33:04,340 --> 01:33:06,331
She's far too good-looking for a wife.
1378
01:33:07,180 --> 01:33:09,250
Well, if you ain't gonna marry her,
1379
01:33:10,780 --> 01:33:12,418
ol' Hank just might.
1380
01:33:12,940 --> 01:33:14,692
- Is that right?
- That's right.
1381
01:33:16,020 --> 01:33:17,419
Oh, Son.
1382
01:33:17,500 --> 01:33:19,491
I hope I ain't causing you any pain.
1383
01:33:20,340 --> 01:33:21,932
Don't worry about it.
1384
01:33:28,500 --> 01:33:30,172
You're like an angel.
1385
01:33:32,540 --> 01:33:33,876
My two boys over there,
1386
01:33:33,900 --> 01:33:36,255
Alton and Sonny, big fans of yours.
1387
01:33:37,140 --> 01:33:38,334
Pregnant at 16.
1388
01:33:38,420 --> 01:33:39,933
So, Jeri Lynn there.
1389
01:33:40,020 --> 01:33:41,897
Married and pregnant, Mr. Jones.
1390
01:33:42,340 --> 01:33:44,410
Well, I'm not selling her short.
1391
01:33:44,500 --> 01:33:45,819
She is pretty tough.
1392
01:33:45,940 --> 01:33:48,090
Oh, I bet she is.
1393
01:33:48,180 --> 01:33:50,853
Nineteen years old,
what the hell do you know?
1394
01:33:50,940 --> 01:33:52,737
Yeah, I could barely tie my own shoes then.
1395
01:33:52,820 --> 01:33:54,697
Well, heck, I wasn't even wearin' them.
1396
01:33:56,500 --> 01:33:58,138
I like children a lot.
1397
01:33:58,460 --> 01:34:00,132
I got one of my own,
1398
01:34:00,220 --> 01:34:01,972
and my former wife had one, too.
1399
01:34:02,700 --> 01:34:05,692
Well, you're handsome,
talented and love kids.
1400
01:34:05,780 --> 01:34:07,133
How about that, Daddy?
1401
01:34:07,940 --> 01:34:09,976
- Hi.
- Hi.
1402
01:34:22,060 --> 01:34:23,652
- Hey, Ray.
- Hank.
1403
01:34:26,380 --> 01:34:27,380
Bobbie.
1404
01:34:27,780 --> 01:34:28,815
Hank.
1405
01:34:32,660 --> 01:34:33,660
You with him?
1406
01:34:34,140 --> 01:34:35,209
Nope.
1407
01:34:35,780 --> 01:34:36,815
You with him?
1408
01:34:36,900 --> 01:34:38,652
Bobbie, what are you doing here?
1409
01:34:38,740 --> 01:34:39,934
What do you think, Hank?
1410
01:34:40,020 --> 01:34:41,772
- Oh, that's nice.
- Thank you.
1411
01:34:41,860 --> 01:34:43,657
Billie, let me handle this, please.
1412
01:34:43,740 --> 01:34:45,093
Bobbie, we got to talk.
1413
01:34:45,180 --> 01:34:46,180
Talk?
1414
01:34:46,740 --> 01:34:48,060
Get her out of here.
1415
01:34:48,300 --> 01:34:49,858
Oh, I'm sorry, darling.
1416
01:34:50,460 --> 01:34:52,018
But who do you think you are?
1417
01:34:52,420 --> 01:34:53,996
Well, I was the woman he was gonna marry.
1418
01:34:54,020 --> 01:34:55,499
- Really? Lucky him.
- Billie.
1419
01:34:55,580 --> 01:34:57,836
Maybe you should have told some
of your other girls that, Hank.
1420
01:34:57,860 --> 01:34:59,851
- Bobbie.
- Well, you are right about that, honey.
1421
01:34:59,980 --> 01:35:00,980
Bobbie.
1422
01:35:01,260 --> 01:35:02,454
Billie. Billie!
1423
01:35:02,540 --> 01:35:03,540
Billie!
1424
01:35:03,660 --> 01:35:06,128
Billie, there isn't anybody else,
I swear to God!
1425
01:35:06,220 --> 01:35:07,619
She got it wrong about us, okay?
1426
01:35:07,740 --> 01:35:08,980
They get it that way sometimes.
1427
01:35:09,020 --> 01:35:11,409
"They"?
1428
01:35:12,900 --> 01:35:15,733
Boy, you're a real piece of work,
Hank Williams.
1429
01:35:16,220 --> 01:35:18,370
You know, I may just be a Bossier City kid,
1430
01:35:18,500 --> 01:35:20,491
but I got enough sense
to know you're trouble,
1431
01:35:20,580 --> 01:35:21,979
and you're gonna tear me up.
1432
01:35:23,980 --> 01:35:25,049
Billie.
1433
01:35:26,100 --> 01:35:28,091
Billie!
1434
01:35:30,300 --> 01:35:31,996
We're gonna have a big ol' time
1435
01:35:32,020 --> 01:35:33,499
at the Grand Ole Opry tonight!
1436
01:35:33,580 --> 01:35:35,810
That's right. We got quite a lineup.
1437
01:35:35,900 --> 01:35:38,892
We've got Bob Mayfield,
we've got Minnie Pearl,
1438
01:35:39,020 --> 01:35:41,375
and Hank Williams!
1439
01:35:43,140 --> 01:35:44,971
So, let's put our hands together.
1440
01:35:45,060 --> 01:35:47,893
Let's do a live and lively rousing welcome.
1441
01:35:58,780 --> 01:35:59,780
Hank?
1442
01:36:05,540 --> 01:36:06,575
Hank.
1443
01:36:09,900 --> 01:36:11,618
Hey, Jim.
1444
01:36:11,940 --> 01:36:12,940
Hank.
1445
01:36:17,020 --> 01:36:19,136
You want something? Cup of coffee?
1446
01:36:19,220 --> 01:36:20,255
No, thanks.
1447
01:36:21,660 --> 01:36:22,854
Where's Ray?
1448
01:36:23,780 --> 01:36:24,974
He moved out.
1449
01:36:28,420 --> 01:36:31,060
I don't want to know where you were
or why you weren't at the show.
1450
01:36:31,140 --> 01:36:32,778
- I'm sorry, J.D.
- I'm sure.
1451
01:36:32,860 --> 01:36:34,088
But sorry don't mean shit.
1452
01:36:34,180 --> 01:36:35,249
We're grown men.
1453
01:36:35,340 --> 01:36:36,375
Oh, I see.
1454
01:36:36,460 --> 01:36:38,212
Should I be taking notes on this lesson?
1455
01:36:38,300 --> 01:36:41,098
Opry's a brand
and you're pissing on it, Hank.
1456
01:36:41,180 --> 01:36:43,535
It means something to a lot of people.
1457
01:36:43,620 --> 01:36:45,417
Music, family.
1458
01:36:45,500 --> 01:36:46,694
Money?
1459
01:36:47,540 --> 01:36:49,849
You want to play the artist on me?
All right, then.
1460
01:36:49,940 --> 01:36:51,692
An artist like you,
1461
01:36:51,780 --> 01:36:53,236
a man who can make folks
forget their troubles,
1462
01:36:53,260 --> 01:36:54,659
you have an obligation.
1463
01:36:57,540 --> 01:36:59,576
You been working me pretty hard, J.D.
1464
01:36:59,660 --> 01:37:03,858
I mean, 100 out of 119 days on the road.
1465
01:37:03,980 --> 01:37:05,857
I don't really need any more obligations.
1466
01:37:05,980 --> 01:37:07,174
Nobody does.
1467
01:37:07,940 --> 01:37:10,090
I'm not trying to be disrespectful, Hank.
1468
01:37:10,180 --> 01:37:11,196
I'm not trying to put you down.
1469
01:37:11,220 --> 01:37:12,220
Don't you worry.
1470
01:37:12,300 --> 01:37:13,574
I gave up giving a shit
1471
01:37:13,660 --> 01:37:15,356
about what other people think
a long time ago.
1472
01:37:15,380 --> 01:37:16,779
All right, then.
1473
01:37:16,860 --> 01:37:18,009
Here's the deal.
1474
01:37:18,660 --> 01:37:21,379
August 9th in your regular Opry spot,
1475
01:37:21,460 --> 01:37:24,657
and August 10th
an Opry-sponsored show in Knoxville.
1476
01:37:29,140 --> 01:37:30,858
Sure, all right, okay.
1477
01:37:32,140 --> 01:37:33,493
I'm imploring you.
1478
01:37:33,860 --> 01:37:35,771
Don't let me down.
1479
01:37:36,180 --> 01:37:38,614
They'll get their money's worth, sir.
1480
01:37:39,220 --> 01:37:40,220
Okay.
1481
01:37:40,260 --> 01:37:43,935
Of course I mean, Cousin Minnie Pearl!
1482
01:37:50,900 --> 01:37:52,697
Howdy!
1483
01:38:02,260 --> 01:38:04,979
Jambalaya hit number one today,
you know that?
1484
01:38:08,060 --> 01:38:09,493
I had to do it, Red.
1485
01:38:09,580 --> 01:38:11,457
I had to let Hank go.
1486
01:38:31,700 --> 01:38:32,700
Hello?
1487
01:38:33,420 --> 01:38:35,695
Oh, hey, it's Hank.
1488
01:38:35,820 --> 01:38:37,173
Hey, Hank, it's Sonny.
1489
01:38:37,260 --> 01:38:39,012
Oh, hey, Sonny.
1490
01:38:39,100 --> 01:38:40,419
Uh, is your sister around?
1491
01:38:44,020 --> 01:38:46,614
No, I don't know where she is.
1492
01:38:48,900 --> 01:38:51,255
Hey, Sonny, help me out, will you?
1493
01:38:51,460 --> 01:38:52,495
Sure.
1494
01:38:54,100 --> 01:38:55,499
Thanks, man.
1495
01:39:13,300 --> 01:39:14,449
Hello.
1496
01:39:17,460 --> 01:39:19,451
Bobbie, it's me.
1497
01:39:21,900 --> 01:39:23,094
Hey, Hank.
1498
01:39:25,780 --> 01:39:26,974
Hey.
1499
01:39:30,300 --> 01:39:32,689
Listen, I was thinking,
why don't you pack a bag,
1500
01:39:32,780 --> 01:39:35,897
and I'll come by in about a half-hour?
1501
01:39:39,260 --> 01:39:40,613
Where are we going?
1502
01:39:41,900 --> 01:39:43,219
Uh, Lake Martin.
1503
01:39:43,620 --> 01:39:45,258
A lodge at Kowaliga Bay.
1504
01:39:45,860 --> 01:39:47,498
It belongs to a pal of mine.
1505
01:39:49,460 --> 01:39:50,529
What do you say?
1506
01:39:56,300 --> 01:39:57,449
Make it an hour.
1507
01:40:16,100 --> 01:40:17,533
Bobbie?
1508
01:40:27,220 --> 01:40:28,369
Oh, Bobbie.
1509
01:40:29,540 --> 01:40:31,258
You're drunker than ol' Hank.
1510
01:40:32,780 --> 01:40:34,179
Hank...
1511
01:40:35,020 --> 01:40:36,578
I'm not drunk.
1512
01:40:37,460 --> 01:40:39,690
- No?
- No.
1513
01:40:42,940 --> 01:40:44,578
I'm pregnant.
1514
01:40:48,020 --> 01:40:49,214
What?
1515
01:40:52,220 --> 01:40:54,688
What is it with me?
1516
01:40:56,860 --> 01:40:59,454
Every woman in my life has kids.
1517
01:41:00,540 --> 01:41:02,098
Every one of them.
1518
01:41:04,540 --> 01:41:06,690
Before I even got to them.
1519
01:41:06,780 --> 01:41:07,780
Man.
1520
01:41:07,860 --> 01:41:10,897
You're obviously very
attractive to mothers, Hank.
1521
01:41:24,100 --> 01:41:25,613
Jesus, Bobbie.
1522
01:41:27,420 --> 01:41:28,489
You're pregnant.
1523
01:41:32,620 --> 01:41:34,133
We could get married.
1524
01:41:35,620 --> 01:41:38,657
Baby, you don't want to marry me.
1525
01:41:38,980 --> 01:41:39,980
Uh-uh.
1526
01:41:40,380 --> 01:41:41,495
I will.
1527
01:41:42,060 --> 01:41:43,334
That's different.
1528
01:41:47,540 --> 01:41:50,771
Boy, I'm a professional
at making a mess of things.
1529
01:41:54,380 --> 01:41:55,449
Hank,
1530
01:41:56,780 --> 01:41:59,692
if we got married, things would be easier.
1531
01:41:59,780 --> 01:42:01,452
They'd be more stable.
1532
01:42:02,500 --> 01:42:04,218
And just think,
1533
01:42:04,300 --> 01:42:06,291
we'd have this little one right here.
1534
01:42:10,300 --> 01:42:11,449
Oh, Bobbie.
1535
01:42:13,620 --> 01:42:15,258
I love you.
1536
01:42:19,300 --> 01:42:21,336
But not like that.
1537
01:42:25,860 --> 01:42:26,895
Not...
1538
01:42:28,060 --> 01:42:29,459
Not that way.
1539
01:42:40,060 --> 01:42:42,369
'Sides, I'm gonna marry Billie Jean.
1540
01:42:45,340 --> 01:42:46,489
She know that?
1541
01:42:49,980 --> 01:42:51,538
Not exactly.
1542
01:42:54,980 --> 01:42:56,572
Listen, darlin'.
1543
01:42:58,660 --> 01:43:01,538
I'm gonna look after this little baby.
1544
01:43:04,620 --> 01:43:06,212
I'll send you money,
1545
01:43:07,380 --> 01:43:09,371
and I'll be its papa, even.
1546
01:43:12,700 --> 01:43:14,691
There ain't gonna be no marriage.
1547
01:43:24,540 --> 01:43:27,532
Hank, you are really screwed up.
1548
01:43:29,980 --> 01:43:31,049
I know.
1549
01:43:32,740 --> 01:43:35,334
I pulled every string
1550
01:43:35,420 --> 01:43:37,331
to get him back where he started,
1551
01:43:37,420 --> 01:43:39,490
the Hayride in Louisiana.
1552
01:43:39,580 --> 01:43:41,775
It wouldn't be the same money or exposure,
1553
01:43:41,860 --> 01:43:43,498
but at least he wouldn't be idle.
1554
01:43:43,580 --> 01:43:45,013
Hank idle, damn.
1555
01:43:45,100 --> 01:43:48,456
Before long, he had
a Nashville showgirl with child.
1556
01:43:48,540 --> 01:43:51,930
And shortly after that,
he married Billie Jean Jones
1557
01:43:52,020 --> 01:43:54,898
in the City Auditorium, New Orleans.
1558
01:44:18,380 --> 01:44:21,816
It's not just my back, baby.
1559
01:44:21,900 --> 01:44:22,900
I feel...
1560
01:44:24,860 --> 01:44:26,771
I feel like my chest is,
1561
01:44:26,860 --> 01:44:29,533
like, getting jumped on.
1562
01:44:56,140 --> 01:44:57,175
Who are you?
1563
01:44:57,260 --> 01:44:59,569
LeBeau, the promoter.
1564
01:45:01,380 --> 01:45:02,529
And you?
1565
01:45:02,620 --> 01:45:04,053
Dr. Marshall.
1566
01:45:05,500 --> 01:45:07,218
What kind of doctor?
1567
01:45:07,300 --> 01:45:09,336
I specialize in alcoholism.
1568
01:45:10,860 --> 01:45:12,009
What does that mean?
1569
01:45:12,100 --> 01:45:13,658
What you got, Doc?
1570
01:45:13,740 --> 01:45:15,332
What's the man have?
1571
01:45:16,340 --> 01:45:18,570
It means
I've been there and back, ma'am,
1572
01:45:19,100 --> 01:45:22,217
and I will help Mr. Williams
to a speedy recovery.
1573
01:45:24,580 --> 01:45:26,571
Let the man in!
1574
01:45:43,700 --> 01:45:45,691
It will be better, son.
1575
01:45:55,340 --> 01:45:56,568
Chloral hydrate.
1576
01:45:56,660 --> 01:46:00,255
So powerful, they use it
to sedate circus animals.
1577
01:46:00,340 --> 01:46:02,276
It's never supposed to be
administered with alcohol
1578
01:46:02,300 --> 01:46:04,256
or to someone with a heart condition,
1579
01:46:05,340 --> 01:46:07,410
which Hank likely had.
1580
01:46:07,500 --> 01:46:09,138
Marshall,
1581
01:46:09,220 --> 01:46:13,577
his di ploma was from the Chicago
University of Applied Sciences and Arts.
1582
01:46:13,660 --> 01:46:17,335
He bought it off a salesman
at a gas station for $25.
1583
01:46:19,540 --> 01:46:23,328
And then Hank called me
and told me he was in Marshall's care.
1584
01:46:36,780 --> 01:46:38,498
How you doing, son?
1585
01:46:42,100 --> 01:46:44,250
How long we got left?
1586
01:46:44,700 --> 01:46:45,700
We can be done, Hank.
1587
01:46:45,740 --> 01:46:47,093
Just call it a day.
1588
01:46:56,780 --> 01:46:58,452
I got something
1589
01:46:59,220 --> 01:47:01,097
I want to run past you.
1590
01:47:02,260 --> 01:47:03,659
You sure?
1591
01:47:10,220 --> 01:47:14,850
Your cheatin' heart
1592
01:47:17,300 --> 01:47:20,610
Will make you weep
1593
01:47:24,020 --> 01:47:29,333
You'll cry and cry
1594
01:47:30,060 --> 01:47:33,848
And try to sleep
1595
01:47:35,460 --> 01:47:39,499
But sleep won't come
1596
01:47:41,100 --> 01:47:45,173
The whole night through
1597
01:47:46,300 --> 01:47:50,930
Your cheatin ' heart
1598
01:47:51,660 --> 01:47:55,573
Will tell on you
1599
01:47:57,140 --> 01:48:02,294
When tears come down
1600
01:48:02,380 --> 01:48:06,532
Like falling rain
1601
01:48:07,780 --> 01:48:13,218
You'll toss around
1602
01:48:13,300 --> 01:48:17,691
And call my name
1603
01:48:18,500 --> 01:48:21,936
You'll walk the floor
1604
01:48:23,980 --> 01:48:28,132
The way I do
1605
01:48:29,460 --> 01:48:34,818
Your cheatin ' heart
1606
01:48:37,260 --> 01:48:43,290
Will tell on you
1607
01:48:57,660 --> 01:48:59,013
Hey.
1608
01:48:59,100 --> 01:49:00,499
I heard you got a new toy.
1609
01:49:00,580 --> 01:49:02,457
Oh, it's a choo-choo train.
1610
01:49:02,540 --> 01:49:04,451
Are you gonna play with me?
1611
01:49:04,540 --> 01:49:07,179
I'll be right there just as soon as I can.
1612
01:49:09,740 --> 01:49:12,015
You know how much I miss you,
don't you, Bocephus?
1613
01:49:12,100 --> 01:49:14,660
Than all the ants on the sidewalks,
1614
01:49:14,740 --> 01:49:17,413
and all the leaves in the trees.
1615
01:49:20,220 --> 01:49:21,448
Hmm.
1616
01:49:22,180 --> 01:49:23,180
That's right.
1617
01:49:23,260 --> 01:49:24,898
Hey, baby, can I talk to Daddy?
1618
01:49:24,980 --> 01:49:26,333
Thank you.
1619
01:49:26,740 --> 01:49:28,651
Hey, Hank? We got to go now.
1620
01:49:28,740 --> 01:49:31,396
It's getting past his bedtime,
and I don't want him getting worked up.
1621
01:49:31,420 --> 01:49:34,810
Audrey, why don't you
bring him up to Shreveport this weekend?
1622
01:49:34,900 --> 01:49:36,379
Well, that won't work out.
1623
01:49:37,020 --> 01:49:38,419
Well, why not?
1624
01:49:38,980 --> 01:49:41,096
I mean, it'd just be for the Saturday.
1625
01:49:41,180 --> 01:49:42,659
You could leave him here and,
1626
01:49:42,780 --> 01:49:44,975
you know, we'll bring him back.
1627
01:49:45,340 --> 01:49:47,171
Well, we got plans Saturday.
1628
01:49:48,060 --> 01:49:49,288
Well, how about Sunday, then?
1629
01:49:49,380 --> 01:49:50,779
No, that won't work.
1630
01:49:51,620 --> 01:49:53,611
We're just gonna have to find
a better time, okay?
1631
01:49:54,700 --> 01:49:55,980
So, I'm gonna talk to you later.
1632
01:49:56,020 --> 01:49:57,453
Okay, hon? Bye.
1633
01:50:41,500 --> 01:50:43,596
The first task of the new administration
1634
01:50:43,620 --> 01:50:45,929
will be to review and reexamine...
1635
01:50:50,700 --> 01:50:53,420
...we have a time-out
existing on the playing field
1636
01:50:53,500 --> 01:50:55,491
on the part of the University of Alabama...
1637
01:51:01,460 --> 01:51:02,654
Do you have to?
1638
01:51:05,660 --> 01:51:07,218
Yeah, I kind of do.
1639
01:51:18,540 --> 01:51:20,132
Well, honey,
1640
01:51:21,980 --> 01:51:24,448
I'm real glad you're skipping
some of them dates.
1641
01:51:25,860 --> 01:51:27,851
Taking some time.
1642
01:51:29,860 --> 01:51:32,420
And I'm real glad
we're getting out of Shreveport.
1643
01:51:33,540 --> 01:51:34,734
But to tell you the truth,
1644
01:51:34,820 --> 01:51:37,288
I don't really want to see your mother.
1645
01:51:37,420 --> 01:51:39,172
I know that.
1646
01:51:40,860 --> 01:51:43,328
Still, at least, she'll be happy to see me.
1647
01:51:44,220 --> 01:51:46,734
Lately, people see me coming,
they want to cross the street.
1648
01:51:47,220 --> 01:51:48,892
Well, that's just not true.
1649
01:51:54,140 --> 01:51:55,493
I'm sorry, baby.
1650
01:51:57,220 --> 01:51:58,619
For what?
1651
01:52:02,420 --> 01:52:03,853
Everything.
1652
01:52:07,180 --> 01:52:09,171
A.V. Bamford had booked Hank
1653
01:52:09,300 --> 01:52:12,736
for two dates at the end of December.
1654
01:52:13,420 --> 01:52:15,854
New Year's Eve in Charleston,
West Virginia,
1655
01:52:15,940 --> 01:52:18,215
New Year's Day in Canton, Ohio.
1656
01:52:18,300 --> 01:52:20,575
Hank looked around
1657
01:52:20,900 --> 01:52:24,256
for someone to drive him in his own car.
1658
01:52:25,220 --> 01:52:29,452
And when he couldn't find any friends
to take him up on that,
1659
01:52:29,540 --> 01:52:33,374
he called a buddy of his at
Lee Street Taxi in Montgomery.
1660
01:52:33,460 --> 01:52:35,257
And that fella
1661
01:52:35,780 --> 01:52:37,611
got his 17-year-old son,
1662
01:52:37,700 --> 01:52:40,817
Charles Carr, to do the job.
1663
01:52:40,900 --> 01:52:43,937
Charles was a freshman
at Auburn on holiday break.
1664
01:53:01,860 --> 01:53:03,116
Can you take care of that for me?
1665
01:53:03,140 --> 01:53:04,334
Yes, sir.
1666
01:53:06,580 --> 01:53:08,377
Be careful with that, Charles.
1667
01:53:21,900 --> 01:53:23,538
Come here, baby.
1668
01:53:30,140 --> 01:53:32,415
I'll call you when I get up to Charleston.
1669
01:53:32,860 --> 01:53:35,215
How come I can't come?
1670
01:53:38,660 --> 01:53:41,379
Go back to Shreveport,
I'll meet you in a couple days.
1671
01:53:41,460 --> 01:53:42,813
You don't have to stay.
1672
01:53:44,060 --> 01:53:46,858
I don't see the big deal, me coming along.
1673
01:53:47,340 --> 01:53:48,614
Well,
1674
01:53:50,060 --> 01:53:51,812
it's a long-ass trip.
1675
01:53:53,180 --> 01:53:54,659
And, truthfully,
1676
01:53:56,860 --> 01:53:58,900
we might get real sick of each other.
1677
01:53:59,060 --> 01:54:00,732
You might end up going at me, right?
1678
01:54:00,820 --> 01:54:02,173
Mmm-hmm.
1679
01:54:19,620 --> 01:54:21,611
One more for luck, huh?
1680
01:54:26,180 --> 01:54:28,694
- Watch your head, Mr. Williams.
- Thank you, sir.
1681
01:54:38,060 --> 01:54:39,891
What are you smiling about?
1682
01:54:39,980 --> 01:54:43,256
Well, another reason
I think you shouldn't come,
1683
01:54:44,780 --> 01:54:46,418
I could use the leg room.
1684
01:54:48,700 --> 01:54:50,611
Drive safe, Charles.
1685
01:54:50,700 --> 01:54:54,170
He's a real SOB, but I think I love him.
1686
01:54:54,860 --> 01:54:56,418
Yes, ma'am.
1687
01:54:57,900 --> 01:54:59,940
Listen to the boss, Charles.
1688
01:55:07,300 --> 01:55:08,858
I'll see you in Louisiana, darlin'.
1689
01:55:12,940 --> 01:55:14,339
Happy New Year.
1690
01:56:20,340 --> 01:56:21,978
Ladies and gentlemen,
1691
01:56:23,420 --> 01:56:27,174
I've been in show business
for almost 20 years.
1692
01:56:30,420 --> 01:56:31,819
But today,
1693
01:56:32,700 --> 01:56:35,931
will be the most difficult task
I've ever had to perform.
1694
01:56:40,300 --> 01:56:41,892
This morning,
1695
01:56:42,180 --> 01:56:45,695
on his way to Canton to do this show,
1696
01:56:48,220 --> 01:56:50,609
Hank Williams died in his car.
1697
01:57:02,540 --> 01:57:07,056
I wandered so aimless
1698
01:57:07,860 --> 01:57:12,012
Life filled with sin
1699
01:57:12,860 --> 01:57:16,250
I wouldn't let my
1700
01:57:16,340 --> 01:57:19,332
Dear Savior in
1701
01:57:21,020 --> 01:57:24,012
Then Jesus came like
1702
01:57:24,100 --> 01:57:27,331
A stranger in the night
1703
01:57:28,180 --> 01:57:31,252
Praise the Lord
1704
01:57:31,340 --> 01:57:34,218
I saw the light
1705
01:57:34,900 --> 01:57:37,937
I saw the light
1706
01:57:38,180 --> 01:57:41,490
I saw the light
1707
01:57:41,580 --> 01:57:44,890
No more darkness
1708
01:57:44,980 --> 01:57:47,892
No more night
1709
01:57:48,420 --> 01:57:51,651
Now I'm so happy
1710
01:57:51,740 --> 01:57:54,812
No sorrow in sight
1711
01:57:54,900 --> 01:57:56,618
Praise the Lord...
1712
01:57:56,700 --> 01:57:59,214
Montgomery, Alabama,
1713
01:57:59,300 --> 01:58:02,019
January 4th, 1953.
1714
01:58:03,100 --> 01:58:05,694
Hank Williams laid to rest in Dixie.
1715
01:58:05,780 --> 01:58:08,977
I saw the light...
1716
01:58:09,060 --> 01:58:11,415
The top singer-songwriter died tragically
1717
01:58:11,500 --> 01:58:13,331
of severe heart damage.
1718
01:58:14,220 --> 01:58:16,336
He was 29 years old.
1719
01:58:17,020 --> 01:58:19,056
In only six years of recording,
1720
01:58:19,140 --> 01:58:21,176
he had a remarkable 36 hit songs
1721
01:58:21,260 --> 01:58:24,093
and sold over 11 million records.
1722
01:58:25,660 --> 01:58:30,176
Fans, friends and family
gave the boy from Mount Olive
1723
01:58:30,260 --> 01:58:32,694
the state's largest send-off ever,
1724
01:58:32,780 --> 01:58:34,577
accompanied by the mournful sounds
1725
01:58:34,660 --> 01:58:38,209
of his buddies' steel guitars
and weeping fiddles.
1726
01:58:38,300 --> 01:58:40,018
No more darkness
1727
01:58:40,100 --> 01:58:42,853
No more night...
1728
01:58:53,180 --> 01:58:59,619
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
1729
01:59:00,300 --> 01:59:05,010
He sounds too blue to fly
1730
01:59:07,340 --> 01:59:13,813
The midnight train is whining low
1731
01:59:14,660 --> 01:59:20,178
I'm so lonesome I could cry
1732
02:00:10,500 --> 02:00:17,292
The silence of a falling star
1733
02:00:18,340 --> 02:00:22,970
Lights up a purple sky
1734
02:00:25,460 --> 02:00:32,059
And as I wonder where you are
1735
02:00:33,060 --> 02:00:38,851
I'm so lonesome I could cry
1736
02:00:40,620 --> 02:00:47,332
And as I wonder where you are
1737
02:00:48,260 --> 02:00:53,937
I'm so lonesome I could cry
1738
02:01:34,980 --> 02:01:39,132
Goodbye Joe me gotta go,
me oh my oh
1739
02:01:40,420 --> 02:01:44,936
Me gotta go pole the pirogue
down the bayou
1740
02:01:46,060 --> 02:01:50,338
My Yvonne the sweetest one,
me oh my oh
1741
02:01:51,660 --> 02:01:55,972
Son of a gun we 'll have
big fun on the bayou
1742
02:01:57,340 --> 02:02:01,777
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie

1743
02:02:02,900 --> 02:02:07,416
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see
my ma cher amio

Pick guitar,

1745
02:02:14,020 --> 02:02:18,218
Son of a gun we 'll have
big fun on the bayou
1746
02:02:41,820 --> 02:02:46,336
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie

1747
02:02:47,380 --> 02:02:51,692
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see

Pick guitar,
fill fruit jar and be gay-o
