00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:38,131
They brung it down to 90 cent a ton.
9
00:03:38,885 --> 00:03:42,218
- Down?
- Them dagos are holding fast in number 3.
10
00:03:42,305 --> 00:03:44,717

and things was tough.
14
00:04:07,539 --> 00:04:11,077
The miners was trying to bring the union
fo West Virginia,
15
00:04:11,168 --> 00:04:15,081
and the coal operators and their gun thugs
was set on keeping them out.

They paid you by the ton,
26
00:04:46,953 --> 00:04:50,696
and they didn't care no more for a man
than they done for a draft mule.
27
00:04:51,082 --> 00:04:53,539
Them was hard people,
your coal miners then.
28
00:04:53,627 --> 00:04:56,209
They wasn't nobody you wanted to cross.
29
00:04:59,216 --> 00:05:01,252
Get back. Get back.
30
00:05:01,843 --> 00:05:03,925
Get back. Get back.
31
00:05:08,058 --> 00:05:11,266
& well, daddy died a miner

33
00:05:14,481 --> 00:05:17,973
j; When a hole is dark and dirty

00:05:34,626 --> 00:05:38,835
j there ain't gonna be no fire

40
00:05:42,926 --> 00:05:44,416
so push come to shove,
41
00:05:44,511 --> 00:05:47,799
and pretty soon we had us a war
down there in mingo county,
42
00:05:48,431 --> 00:05:51,138
which in them days
was known as bloody mingo.
43
00:05:51,685 --> 00:05:55,223
And that's where it all come fo a head,
there on tug fork,
44
00:05:55,313 --> 00:05:57,304
in the town of matewan.
45
00:06:07,242 --> 00:06:09,403
We done it, mama.
We're going to have the union!
46
00:06:24,593 --> 00:06:27,005
Just got to stop for a little repair.
47
00:06:27,095 --> 00:06:28,551
Sorry for the inconvenience.
48
00:06:29,639 --> 00:06:31,630
It's the bolshevists, is what.
49
00:06:31,725 --> 00:06:35,013
Some of them fellas went over
to the war there, and they come back red.
50
00:06:35,103 --> 00:06:37,310
It's just like a disease. It spreads.
51
00:06:37,397 --> 00:06:40,605
Well, they shipped in
all kinds of Italians, right off the boat.
52
00:06:40,692 --> 00:06:42,398
They're still bringing coal out of there.
53
00:06:42,485 --> 00:06:45,192
I'd sure hate to get a whiff
of that mine shaft.
54
00:06:46,823 --> 00:06:48,859
What the hell are we stopping for?
55
00:07:03,506 --> 00:07:06,373
Step down, gentleman.
This here'll be your new home.
56
00:07:31,576 --> 00:07:33,862
How come we ain't getting off in town?
57
00:07:33,954 --> 00:07:35,444
Just get in line.
58
00:07:51,179 --> 00:07:53,295
Get out of here!
59
00:08:04,776 --> 00:08:06,983
- Get back!
- Get on the train!
60
00:08:15,036 --> 00:08:18,369
Ah, my nose!
61
00:08:18,456 --> 00:08:22,324
I'm going to kill him!
When I get him, I'll kill him...
62
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,172
Hey, get on the train! Get on!
63
00:08:42,147 --> 00:08:43,387
Come on, few!
64
00:08:45,191 --> 00:08:46,806
Come on, few! Come on!
65
00:08:47,235 --> 00:08:49,692
Come on, few!
Give me your hand right here.
66
00:08:49,779 --> 00:08:51,269
Get out of here!
67
00:08:54,534 --> 00:08:58,368
Get out of here! Don't come back, boy.
68
00:08:58,455 --> 00:09:00,116
Don't you ever come back.
69
00:09:03,835 --> 00:09:05,496
Hey, when do we get to matewan?
70
00:09:05,587 --> 00:09:08,920
You don't want to go there, mister.
Ain't nothing but crazy people.
71
00:09:34,824 --> 00:09:35,824
Hi.
72
00:09:37,494 --> 00:09:38,494
Hi.
73
00:09:45,001 --> 00:09:46,616
Everybody was here,
74
00:09:46,711 --> 00:09:49,578
then they got word
and they gone on up the line a ways.
75
00:09:50,090 --> 00:09:51,876
Some kind of union business.
76
00:09:52,801 --> 00:09:54,132
Yeah, I saw.
77
00:09:54,219 --> 00:09:55,584
You best steer clear of it.
78
00:09:57,889 --> 00:09:59,629
My name's bridey Mae tolliver.
79
00:10:00,892 --> 00:10:02,632
Uh, Joe kenehan.
80
00:10:04,479 --> 00:10:07,937
You know radnor's boardinghouse?
81
00:10:08,399 --> 00:10:11,482
Big white house,
right on past the coal dock.
82
00:10:11,820 --> 00:10:15,233
She's a real sourpuss, though,
elma radnor.
83
00:10:15,824 --> 00:10:17,906
Thank you.
84
00:10:17,992 --> 00:10:19,357
You going to be in town long?
85
00:10:20,203 --> 00:10:21,283
Ah, it depends.
86
00:10:23,957 --> 00:10:25,242
I'll see you around.
87
00:10:32,215 --> 00:10:33,421
I hope so.
88
00:11:19,345 --> 00:11:21,711

are to be considered a loan
89
00:11:21,806 --> 00:11:23,512

Yes?
116
00:12:58,653 --> 00:13:01,019
My name is Joe kenehan.
117
00:13:03,783 --> 00:13:07,867
I'm going to be in town for a bit
and your place here was recommended.
118
00:13:07,954 --> 00:13:09,114
What do you do?
119
00:13:13,751 --> 00:13:15,287
I guess I'm looking for work.
120
00:13:15,628 --> 00:13:16,868
You with the company?
121
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:18,880
The company?
122
00:13:19,299 --> 00:13:21,540
You ain't with the company,
there ain't no work.
123
00:13:24,762 --> 00:13:28,129
Look, mister, don't act the lamb with me.
What's your business here?
124
00:13:28,224 --> 00:13:29,464
Mama!
125
00:13:29,892 --> 00:13:31,348
- Mama, it's Hillard.
- Oh, lord.
126
00:13:31,436 --> 00:13:33,472
Them scabs done it, up the line a mile.
127
00:13:33,563 --> 00:13:35,599
They was all colored this time.
They bust his nose!
128
00:13:35,690 --> 00:13:36,810
- You got ice?
- In the back.
129
00:13:36,899 --> 00:13:39,686
Go fetch me two chunks, about this big,
and a rag.
130
00:13:39,777 --> 00:13:40,777
You a doctor?
131
00:13:40,862 --> 00:13:43,569
No, but I've seen my share
of broken noses.
132
00:13:44,282 --> 00:13:48,446
Now just point it up in the air, buddy,
just like you're watching the clouds.
133
00:13:48,536 --> 00:13:50,151
We'll get that bleeding stopped.
134
00:13:50,663 --> 00:13:52,278
I got my licks in.
135
00:13:52,373 --> 00:13:54,830
- You say what?
- He said he got his licks in.
136
00:13:54,917 --> 00:13:56,908
Seems to be all the men around here
care about.
137
00:13:57,003 --> 00:13:59,915
Wives and kids are starving,
so long as they get their licks in.
138
00:14:00,006 --> 00:14:01,587
It's just frustration, is all,
139
00:14:02,133 --> 00:14:04,590
when you can't take care of them
you care about.
140
00:14:04,677 --> 00:14:06,542
- I know, it ain't their fault.
- Here you go.
141
00:14:06,637 --> 00:14:08,969
This freezes up
all them little veins inside.
142
00:14:10,141 --> 00:14:13,429
It's just so they close up
and they don't let any more blood out.
143
00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:16,226
- You a doctor?
- No.
144
00:14:17,774 --> 00:14:20,356
I'm just a guy
looking for a place to stay.
145
00:14:21,152 --> 00:14:23,188
$5 a week, cash.
146
00:14:23,738 --> 00:14:25,729
That includes dinner and clean sheets.
147
00:14:26,449 --> 00:14:28,531
Hope I'm not making a mistake.
148
00:14:29,660 --> 00:14:31,321
Name is Joe kenehan.
149
00:14:35,458 --> 00:14:36,914
Lay back your head.
150
00:14:37,502 --> 00:14:41,290
Oh, mostly I worked for the railroads,
laying track.
151
00:14:41,381 --> 00:14:43,042
Kansas, Missouri...
152
00:14:43,841 --> 00:14:46,674
I went out west for a bit,
worked in a lumber camp.
153
00:14:49,013 --> 00:14:51,095
A little of whatever
pays an honest dollar.
154
00:14:51,391 --> 00:14:54,554
I'm a coal miner.
I east till we come out I was.
155
00:14:54,644 --> 00:14:57,386
Had me over in section 3.
I was a trapper boy.
156
00:14:58,356 --> 00:15:00,768
- Ain't you a little young?
- I'm almost 15.
157
00:15:01,526 --> 00:15:03,482
There's some in there younger than me.
158
00:15:04,153 --> 00:15:06,690
With the strike now,
I mostly work on running this place.
159
00:15:06,781 --> 00:15:08,237
I help a little, don't 17?
160
00:15:10,034 --> 00:15:11,695
It's going to be a long one.
161
00:15:11,786 --> 00:15:13,447
That superintendent at stone mountain,
162
00:15:13,538 --> 00:15:17,030
he said he'd go broke before he'd let
one union sonofabitch
163
00:15:17,125 --> 00:15:19,582
so much as step into his coal mines.
164
00:15:19,669 --> 00:15:21,284
- Danny.
- Oh, sorry, ma'am.
165
00:15:21,379 --> 00:15:22,585
But that's what he said.
166
00:15:23,423 --> 00:15:25,539
- Daniel's a preacher.
- Is that so?
167
00:15:25,633 --> 00:15:27,715
You ought to hear him testify.
168
00:15:28,469 --> 00:15:29,800
What church you with?
169
00:15:30,263 --> 00:15:33,551
Round here there's the missionary folks.
They's the hardshell baptists.
170
00:15:33,641 --> 00:15:37,008
Then there's the free will folks,
which is your softshell baptists.
171
00:15:37,103 --> 00:15:38,639
Right now I preach for both.
172
00:15:41,315 --> 00:15:42,430
Oh, I'll get it.
173
00:15:43,109 --> 00:15:45,976
Daniel's going to preach tonight
over at the missionary.
174
00:15:48,072 --> 00:15:50,484
I never was religious myself.
175
00:15:50,575 --> 00:15:52,031
It's sephus, mama.
176
00:15:53,828 --> 00:15:54,943
Hello, elma.
177
00:15:55,997 --> 00:15:57,908
- Mrs. knightes.
- Hello, sephus.
178
00:15:59,125 --> 00:16:01,616
I come to have a word
with your new boarder...
179
00:16:03,087 --> 00:16:04,497
If he don't mind.
180
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:07,959
Excuse me.
181
00:16:24,650 --> 00:16:26,641
Claims he's the fella the union sent us.
182
00:16:29,322 --> 00:16:30,437
Can you prove it?
183
00:16:34,202 --> 00:16:36,409
Don't take nothing to have
a card printed up.
184
00:16:37,705 --> 00:16:39,070
You'll just have to trust me.
185
00:16:42,084 --> 00:16:43,324
Who wrote 7he /ron heel?
186
00:16:45,004 --> 00:16:46,119
Jack London.
187
00:16:46,214 --> 00:16:47,829
Where's Joe hill buried at?
188
00:16:48,508 --> 00:16:51,170
All over the world.
They scattered his ashes.
189
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:53,376
Which eye is big bill Heywood missing?
190
00:16:58,059 --> 00:17:00,471
- His right one.
- How did frank little die?
191
00:17:00,978 --> 00:17:03,845
Butte, Montana.
They hung him from a railroad trestle.
192
00:17:06,817 --> 00:17:08,353
Well, you know your stuff.
193
00:17:09,737 --> 00:17:14,071
- I was with the wobblies.
- Me too, back when it meant something.
194
00:17:15,493 --> 00:17:18,701
- One big union.
- Not around here, buddy.
195
00:17:20,373 --> 00:17:21,533
C.e. Lively.
196
00:17:22,124 --> 00:17:23,364
This is my restaurant.
197
00:17:24,252 --> 00:17:25,537
The fellas are waiting.
198
00:17:32,468 --> 00:17:34,584
They don't give a damn
whether we live or die,
199
00:17:34,971 --> 00:17:37,633
just so long as they get their coal
out of the ground.
200
00:17:37,723 --> 00:17:40,886
They had us pulling pillars
and the roof was working,
201
00:17:40,977 --> 00:17:43,684
you know, like it does
before it's going to fall down.
202
00:17:43,771 --> 00:17:47,138
If I say, "I ain't dying in here"
and walk away,
203
00:17:47,233 --> 00:17:50,817
they'll put me down in some damn puddle
in a two-foot seam
204
00:17:50,903 --> 00:17:52,359
and no air to breathe.
205
00:17:53,114 --> 00:17:54,979
A man can't mine coal that way.
206
00:17:55,074 --> 00:17:57,406
They're just pushing us further
than we can go.
207
00:17:57,493 --> 00:18:00,280
The checkweighman, he'll take 50 pounds
off your load for slate
208
00:18:00,371 --> 00:18:01,651
when there ain't a pebble in it.
209
00:18:01,706 --> 00:18:04,351
"It's down in the bottom," he'll say,
where there ain't no looking for it.
210
00:18:04,375 --> 00:18:06,366
Then they raise the prices
at the company store
211
00:18:06,460 --> 00:18:09,167
the same goddamn week
that they lower the tonnage rate.
212
00:18:09,255 --> 00:18:11,962
And they still ain't rock-dusted
that damn hole.
213
00:18:12,049 --> 00:18:13,505
Who am I talking about?
214
00:18:13,593 --> 00:18:15,379
- Jesus.
- I can't hear you.
215
00:18:15,469 --> 00:18:18,131
- Jesus!
- I still can't hear you.
216
00:18:18,222 --> 00:18:20,338
- Jesus!
- Jesus Christ, our lord.
217
00:18:20,433 --> 00:18:24,267
Do you know his name?
Have you seen his glory?
218
00:18:24,353 --> 00:18:29,564
Have you felt the warming comfort
of his precious love?
219
00:18:29,650 --> 00:18:31,356
- Praise Jesus!
- Praise Jesus!
220
00:18:31,444 --> 00:18:35,562
Praise his holy name!
Praise his blessed spirit!
221
00:18:35,656 --> 00:18:38,648
Praise his everlasting love!
222
00:18:38,743 --> 00:18:41,234
Jesus Christ, our lord.
223
00:18:41,329 --> 00:18:43,786
Listen to me now, listen to me.
224
00:18:45,958 --> 00:18:49,746
The prince of darkness...
225
00:18:51,922 --> 00:18:54,004
Is upon the land.
226
00:18:55,384 --> 00:18:57,670
- Amen.
- Now, in the Bible...
227
00:18:59,138 --> 00:19:02,801
His name is beelzebub,
228
00:19:03,476 --> 00:19:06,092
I ord of the flies.
229
00:19:07,188 --> 00:19:09,725
Right now on earth today...
230
00:19:10,733 --> 00:19:16,979
His name is bolshevist,
socialist, communist, union man!
231
00:19:17,615 --> 00:19:21,449
Lord of untruth, sower of evil seed,
232
00:19:21,535 --> 00:19:25,027
enemy of all that is good and pure,
233
00:19:25,122 --> 00:19:26,658
and this creature...
234
00:19:29,251 --> 00:19:31,833
Walks among us.
235
00:19:34,924 --> 00:19:36,880
What are we going to do about it?
236
00:20:03,077 --> 00:20:06,911
First thing we got to have is all of these
niggers and all these dagos
237
00:20:06,997 --> 00:20:09,613
that come in here to take our jobs
thrown out of the mines.
238
00:20:09,709 --> 00:20:13,622
Mines! Hell! They got them in our houses,
they're sitting at our tables right now,
239
00:20:13,713 --> 00:20:15,294
and they're sleeping in our beds
240
00:20:15,381 --> 00:20:18,669
while we're out living under a piece
of canvas at the back of the holler.
241
00:20:18,759 --> 00:20:20,966
I been a union man my whole life.
242
00:20:21,470 --> 00:20:24,962
I know the story with these coal operators
and their gun thugs.
243
00:20:25,558 --> 00:20:28,174
The only thing they understand
is the bad end of a bullet.
244
00:20:29,478 --> 00:20:32,470
If we show them we'd just as soon
blow up their damn mines
245
00:20:32,565 --> 00:20:35,978
as see them worked by a bunch of scabs,
then they're going to listen.
246
00:20:36,485 --> 00:20:39,727
Someone's coming. It's ellix.
He got someone.
247
00:20:57,882 --> 00:20:59,213
Where'd you find him?
248
00:20:59,300 --> 00:21:01,586
He come right up on the steps.
249
00:21:01,677 --> 00:21:05,465
They told me that c.E. Lively's
is where the union men meet.
250
00:21:06,098 --> 00:21:07,098
So?
251
00:21:09,310 --> 00:21:11,016
I got business with the union.
252
00:21:13,397 --> 00:21:14,557
That so?
253
00:21:15,483 --> 00:21:16,598
What's your name, son?
254
00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:20,643
They calls me few clothes.
255
00:21:20,738 --> 00:21:24,105
I didn't come here looking for no trouble.
256
00:21:24,825 --> 00:21:26,235
A man's got to eat.
257
00:21:26,327 --> 00:21:28,818
So why don't you go eat,
back where you come from?
258
00:21:28,913 --> 00:21:30,574
They told me that there was jobs here.
259
00:21:30,664 --> 00:21:33,155
- Go home, nigger.
- God damn, scab.
260
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,292
You watch your mouth, peckerwood.
261
00:21:41,675 --> 00:21:44,633
I been called nigger, and I can't help
that's the way white folks is,
262
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,632
but I ain't never been called no scab!
263
00:21:49,975 --> 00:21:51,715
And I ain't fixing to start up now.
264
00:21:53,354 --> 00:21:55,936
I'll go ton for ton loading coal
with any man here.
265
00:21:56,607 --> 00:22:00,566
And when I do, I expect the same dollar
for the same work.
266
00:22:01,779 --> 00:22:05,271
You get out of this holler alive, son,
you'll be doing good for yourself.
267
00:22:10,329 --> 00:22:12,285
Union men, my ass.
268
00:22:22,591 --> 00:22:24,422
You want to be treated like men?
269
00:22:25,928 --> 00:22:27,168
You want to be treated fair?
270
00:22:29,223 --> 00:22:31,760
Well, you ain't men to that coal company.
271
00:22:33,269 --> 00:22:34,554
You're equipment,
272
00:22:35,271 --> 00:22:40,356
like a shovel, a gondola car,
or a hunk of wood brace.
273
00:22:42,111 --> 00:22:45,603
They'll use you till you wear out
or you break down,
274
00:22:45,948 --> 00:22:49,406
or you're buried under a slate fall,
and then they'll get a new one.
275
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,532
And they don't care what color it is
or where it comes from.
276
00:22:54,874 --> 00:22:56,830
It doesn't matter how much coal
you can load
277
00:22:56,917 --> 00:22:59,784
or how long your family
has lived on this land.
278
00:23:00,629 --> 00:23:04,417
If you stand alone,
you're just so much shit to those people.
279
00:23:09,555 --> 00:23:11,466
You think this man is your enemy?
280
00:23:15,144 --> 00:23:16,259
Huh?
281
00:23:17,938 --> 00:23:19,348
This is a worker.
282
00:23:21,525 --> 00:23:24,938
Any union keeps this man out
ain't a union,
283
00:23:25,362 --> 00:23:27,353
it's a goddamn club.
284
00:23:29,575 --> 00:23:31,941
Now they got you fighting white
against colored,
285
00:23:32,578 --> 00:23:35,741
native against foreign,
holler against holler,
286
00:23:36,206 --> 00:23:39,118
when you know there ain't but two sides
to this world,
287
00:23:39,209 --> 00:23:41,541
them that work and them that don't.
288
00:23:41,629 --> 00:23:44,120
You work, they don't.
289
00:23:45,507 --> 00:23:47,748
That's all you got to know
about the enemy.
290
00:23:52,097 --> 00:23:53,712
You say you got guns.
291
00:24:00,439 --> 00:24:03,101
Well, I know that you all are brave men,
292
00:24:03,943 --> 00:24:08,027
and I know you could shoot it out
with the company if you had to.
293
00:24:09,073 --> 00:24:11,655
But the coal company
don't want this union,
294
00:24:12,451 --> 00:24:14,282
the state government don't want it,
295
00:24:14,370 --> 00:24:16,406
the federal government don't want it.
296
00:24:16,497 --> 00:24:19,864
And they're all of them just waiting
for an excuse to come down
297
00:24:19,959 --> 00:24:21,324
and crush us to nothing.
298
00:24:25,089 --> 00:24:28,297
Fellas, we're in a hole
full of coal gas here.
299
00:24:29,802 --> 00:24:33,511
The tiniest spark at the wrong time
is going to be the end of us.
300
00:24:35,808 --> 00:24:39,801
So we got to pick away at this situation
slow and careful.
301
00:24:42,064 --> 00:24:44,771
We got to organize and build support.
302
00:24:46,068 --> 00:24:47,933
We got to work together.
303
00:24:48,445 --> 00:24:49,605
Together!
304
00:24:50,239 --> 00:24:52,776
Till they can't get their coal
out of the ground without us
305
00:24:52,866 --> 00:24:54,356
'cause we're a union!
306
00:24:54,994 --> 00:24:57,986
"Cause we're the workers, damn it!
And we take care of each other.
307
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,407
How can we shut the mines down
if we don't dynamite them?
308
00:25:03,877 --> 00:25:05,959
The men walk out.
309
00:25:06,588 --> 00:25:07,919
All of them!
310
00:25:11,635 --> 00:25:13,296
Fat chance.
311
00:25:20,686 --> 00:25:23,928
And every man that walks out
on his own steam,
312
00:25:24,773 --> 00:25:26,104
we take into the union.
313
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,646
All the dagos and all the colored?
314
00:25:35,951 --> 00:25:37,942
That's what a union is, fellas.
315
00:25:39,997 --> 00:25:41,908
You better get used to it.
316
00:25:42,833 --> 00:25:44,494
So this fella owns a vineyard,
317
00:25:44,585 --> 00:25:47,292
goes out first thing one morning,
and he hires some workers.
318
00:25:47,588 --> 00:25:51,957
Says he'll give them a dollar for the day,
which was decent wages in biblical times.
319
00:25:52,801 --> 00:25:55,338
Then he's at the marketplace
and he sees some other fellas,
320
00:25:55,429 --> 00:25:56,760
and he hires them.
321
00:25:56,847 --> 00:25:59,259
And some more at noon and 2:00 and 5:00,
322
00:25:59,349 --> 00:26:02,637
and every time it's the same deal,
a dollar for the day.
323
00:26:02,728 --> 00:26:06,061
He's hiring all day long, right up
till one hour before quitting time.
324
00:26:17,618 --> 00:26:20,200
Look, we're real sorry
to barge in on you like this,
325
00:26:20,287 --> 00:26:23,245
but it's come to a point
where we got to talk to you.
326
00:26:24,708 --> 00:26:27,916
Now, I know you people got it hard
coming to a new country.
327
00:26:28,003 --> 00:26:29,709
You don't know the rules.
328
00:26:30,297 --> 00:26:31,707
Don't know how things work.
329
00:26:31,799 --> 00:26:34,916
They don't know shit about mining coal,
that's for sure.
330
00:26:35,010 --> 00:26:38,343
They been dying like flies
in that number 3 hole.
331
00:26:38,430 --> 00:26:40,091
What's he saying?
332
00:26:40,474 --> 00:26:44,638
But how it is, you don't have
a whole lot of choice in this thing.
333
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:47,845
You know what a union is?
334
00:26:50,984 --> 00:26:51,984
Shh.
335
00:26:52,069 --> 00:26:54,981
Well, what the situation is,
we need everybody...
336
00:26:55,072 --> 00:26:57,779
We join the union, they shoot us.
337
00:26:58,450 --> 00:27:00,907
We no join the union, you shoot us.
338
00:27:07,626 --> 00:27:09,617
Well, that's one way of looking at it.
339
00:27:10,295 --> 00:27:13,708
- What does he want?
- He wants us to join the union.
340
00:27:14,716 --> 00:27:16,923
The union! The union again!
341
00:27:17,010 --> 00:27:18,010
Rosaria.
342
00:27:41,243 --> 00:27:43,359
That dago's driving me crazy.
343
00:27:44,746 --> 00:27:47,032
- Now what's he playing?
- Shh.
344
00:27:48,417 --> 00:27:49,657
Now who's that?
345
00:28:21,033 --> 00:28:22,694
Peckerwood's gone past.
346
00:28:24,286 --> 00:28:26,197
Union man be over in a few minutes.
347
00:28:27,539 --> 00:28:29,120
What we talking to him for?
348
00:28:30,125 --> 00:28:31,956
You want to walk back to Alabama?
349
00:28:34,504 --> 00:28:36,244
Sun goes down, he sends for his foreman,
350
00:28:36,340 --> 00:28:38,706
he says to go pay off the workers,
351
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,916
starting with the ones
he picked up just an hour ago,
352
00:28:41,011 --> 00:28:43,753
and to pay every one of them
the same dollar a day.
353
00:28:44,389 --> 00:28:48,257
Of course, the fellas that went out first
is roped off about this.
354
00:28:48,352 --> 00:28:49,637
So they get to agitating,
355
00:28:49,728 --> 00:28:52,310
complaining so loud that the owner
come up and he says,
356
00:28:52,397 --> 00:28:57,107
"look it, we dealt for a dollar,
and that's what you get.
357
00:28:57,194 --> 00:29:00,311
And what I pay anybody else
is none of your lookout, so there."
358
00:29:02,449 --> 00:29:04,610
Now, that's all the gospel story says,
359
00:29:04,701 --> 00:29:06,487
except for the moral Jesus drew out of it.
360
00:29:07,996 --> 00:29:09,782
And so Jesus says,
361
00:29:10,332 --> 00:29:12,744
"thus it will be
in the kingdom of heaven...
362
00:29:12,834 --> 00:29:15,951
The first will be last,
and the last will be first."
363
00:29:18,382 --> 00:29:20,464
Now, it's clear from this parable
364
00:29:20,550 --> 00:29:23,007
that Jesus hadn't heard nothing
about the union.
365
00:29:23,512 --> 00:29:24,968
If he was walking the earth today
366
00:29:25,055 --> 00:29:27,341
and seen the situation we got
with these coal operators,
367
00:29:27,432 --> 00:29:29,093
he'd have changed his tune.
368
00:29:29,184 --> 00:29:31,015
"A man deserveth an hourly wage,"
he'd say,
369
00:29:31,103 --> 00:29:33,936
“for though the pit be gassy
and the face full of slate,
370
00:29:34,022 --> 00:29:36,434
a man still toileth by the sweat
of his brow
371
00:29:36,525 --> 00:29:38,481
and wants a better deal here on earth,
372
00:29:38,568 --> 00:29:41,401
no matter what I got in store for him
in the hereafter."
373
00:29:41,488 --> 00:29:43,399
- Praise Jesus.
- Praise Jesus.
374
00:29:46,368 --> 00:29:47,528
Kenehan.
375
00:29:51,373 --> 00:29:53,159
Out kind of late, aren't you?
376
00:29:53,917 --> 00:29:56,533
I met some people, and we got to talking.
377
00:29:58,588 --> 00:29:59,623
Talking.
378
00:30:01,174 --> 00:30:02,254
Yeah.
379
00:30:03,927 --> 00:30:05,167
Who are you?
380
00:30:06,430 --> 00:30:08,170
Name is sid Hatfield.
381
00:30:08,557 --> 00:30:10,388
I'm chief of police around here.
382
00:30:11,435 --> 00:30:13,801
It ain't against the law to talk, is it?
383
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:17,475
Depends.
384
00:30:24,614 --> 00:30:26,354
I take care of my people.
385
00:30:27,868 --> 00:30:29,984
You bring them trouble, you're a dead man.
386
00:30:36,835 --> 00:30:38,166
Sleep tight, kenehan.
387
00:31:43,652 --> 00:31:44,652
Hi.
388
00:31:46,571 --> 00:31:48,778
Well, look at this, griggsy.
389
00:31:49,241 --> 00:31:51,778
They got up
a little reception committee for us.
390
00:31:59,918 --> 00:32:01,658
What is your name, honey?
391
00:32:02,754 --> 00:32:04,540
Bridey Mae tolliver.
392
00:32:05,173 --> 00:32:07,960
You like to watch the trains come and go,
bridey Mae?
393
00:32:09,886 --> 00:32:11,126
Yeah. Yeah?
394
00:32:12,097 --> 00:32:14,634
And the people what come into town.
Ah.
395
00:32:14,724 --> 00:32:18,137
There been a lot of new people
coming here lately?
396
00:32:18,228 --> 00:32:19,228
A few.
397
00:32:20,689 --> 00:32:23,101
Fella named Joe kenehan show up?
398
00:32:27,195 --> 00:32:28,401
Maybe.
399
00:32:30,574 --> 00:32:32,189
Are you married, bridey Mae?
400
00:32:32,993 --> 00:32:34,108
I was.
401
00:32:35,162 --> 00:32:36,868
He got killed in the mine.
402
00:32:37,664 --> 00:32:39,700
Oh, that's too bad.
403
00:32:40,542 --> 00:32:43,534
Did you hear that, griggsy?
He got killed in the mine.
404
00:32:43,628 --> 00:32:44,959
It's a shame.
405
00:32:47,215 --> 00:32:50,958
Was your husband a union man
while he was living?
406
00:32:51,052 --> 00:32:54,419
No. He said it wouldn't never
take hold down here.
407
00:32:54,514 --> 00:32:56,596
He sounds like a smart fella.
408
00:33:00,562 --> 00:33:05,181
I think that you are real pretty.
You know that, bridey Mae?
409
00:33:06,818 --> 00:33:07,853
Thank you.
410
00:33:10,322 --> 00:33:12,654
Don't you think she's pretty, griggsy?
411
00:33:17,037 --> 00:33:23,533
You are the best-looking mountain trash
I've seen in a long while.
412
00:33:27,589 --> 00:33:29,625
We'll see you around.
413
00:33:34,596 --> 00:33:36,336
Let's roll, griggsy.
414
00:33:38,433 --> 00:33:40,924
The sooner we get out of this shithole,
the better.
415
00:33:55,909 --> 00:33:57,445
I was putting up blackberries
416
00:33:57,536 --> 00:34:00,198
when trammell blankenship
come shouting up the holler
417
00:34:00,288 --> 00:34:02,279
that the number 5 had blown.
418
00:34:04,584 --> 00:34:06,916
I remember I took the pot
off the stove top
419
00:34:07,003 --> 00:34:09,460
and washed up my hands before I went down.
420
00:34:12,676 --> 00:34:14,712
It took two days to dig through.
421
00:34:16,137 --> 00:34:19,300
Then when they brung them up,
you couldn't tell which was which.
422
00:34:19,975 --> 00:34:24,014
They found blood on the walls
from fellas trying to claw their way out.
423
00:34:26,481 --> 00:34:29,723
Mrs. elkins, Mrs. mounts,
bridey Mae, me...
424
00:34:30,735 --> 00:34:32,771
We all lost our men in that fire.
425
00:34:35,240 --> 00:34:36,776
Danny was seven then.
426
00:34:37,951 --> 00:34:39,657
Now he's back in that same hole.
427
00:34:43,081 --> 00:34:44,366
How'd it start?
428
00:34:45,500 --> 00:34:49,118
Coal dust gets hanging in the air
down there, and there's a spark.
429
00:34:50,088 --> 00:34:53,797
They could spray the walls down,
but the company says that'd cost too much.
430
00:34:56,094 --> 00:34:59,586
Hey, was, uh...
Was sid Hatfield ever a miner?
431
00:35:01,182 --> 00:35:03,764
Not for long.
He don't like to be closed in, sid.
432
00:35:04,477 --> 00:35:06,968
He was always real friendly, smiling, sid.
433
00:35:07,897 --> 00:35:09,387
Then the war come,
434
00:35:10,191 --> 00:35:12,898
and cabell testerman got to be the mayor.
435
00:35:12,986 --> 00:35:16,979
He made sid chief of police,
and then the girl that cabell marr...
436
00:35:17,657 --> 00:35:18,863
Well...
437
00:35:24,664 --> 00:35:28,077
I don't want you using Danny
on no crazy union business.
438
00:35:28,418 --> 00:35:30,955
A man has to stand up
for what he believes in.
439
00:35:31,671 --> 00:35:33,127
Danny ain't no man.
440
00:35:35,550 --> 00:35:37,916
Look here, mister,
you're going to be moving on.
441
00:35:38,595 --> 00:35:42,008
Win or lose, you'll walk on out
of this holler. We got to stay here.
442
00:35:42,932 --> 00:35:45,048
I intend to leave a union when I go.
443
00:35:45,644 --> 00:35:47,635
My husband used to talk union.
444
00:35:48,730 --> 00:35:50,516
I seen where it got him.
445
00:35:55,153 --> 00:35:57,769
Mama! People out front, mama.
446
00:36:06,414 --> 00:36:09,326
- Sorry, mister, we're full up.
- Not anymore you're not, Sonny.
447
00:36:09,834 --> 00:36:12,701
- Stone mountain sent us down here.
- We're still full up.
448
00:36:13,546 --> 00:36:14,774
Can I help you gentleman?
449
00:36:14,798 --> 00:36:17,756
They're trying to push their way
in here. I said it wasn't no use.
450
00:36:17,842 --> 00:36:19,628
I don't see where
you got any say.
451
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,335
My mama says you can't stay here,
then you can't, that's all.
452
00:36:22,430 --> 00:36:24,261
Danny! Keep out of this.
453
00:36:25,767 --> 00:36:27,758
Look, I only got one room left.
454
00:36:27,852 --> 00:36:30,343
Then somebody's going to have to move,
don't they?
455
00:36:30,438 --> 00:36:31,723
Let me see your register.
456
00:36:32,649 --> 00:36:33,980
You ain't seeing nothing.
457
00:36:35,985 --> 00:36:39,569
Lady, we're here as guests
of the stone mountain coal company.
458
00:36:39,656 --> 00:36:41,066
They own this house.
459
00:36:41,616 --> 00:36:43,072
Good morning.
460
00:36:43,952 --> 00:36:45,692
You fellas moving in?
461
00:36:45,787 --> 00:36:47,072
- Yeah.
- No.
462
00:36:47,163 --> 00:36:51,076
Well, you won't find
a better night's sleep anywheres in town.
463
00:36:52,127 --> 00:36:54,334
It's a shame I got to move
over to the hotel.
464
00:36:54,421 --> 00:36:57,254
It's business, you know.
465
00:36:59,259 --> 00:37:01,466
So you mind if I settle my bill, ma'am?
466
00:37:03,471 --> 00:37:06,679
Danny, you sign these two gentleman in.
467
00:37:13,648 --> 00:37:15,934
Don't think the company
isn't going to hear about this.
468
00:37:29,330 --> 00:37:32,493
Boy, sometimes you got to bend
so as you don't break.
469
00:37:34,753 --> 00:37:36,914
Food's awful at the hotel.
470
00:37:37,797 --> 00:37:41,460
Mattresses got lumps,
probably cooties too.
471
00:37:44,179 --> 00:37:45,589
I'll be all right.
472
00:37:48,057 --> 00:37:49,638
I'll get my things.
473
00:37:50,435 --> 00:37:51,641
Thank you.
474
00:37:59,861 --> 00:38:03,820
Now, if you want to stay alive down here,
you got to listen up.
475
00:38:04,616 --> 00:38:08,780
Get ahold of something solid,
and give the top a little poke.
476
00:38:09,496 --> 00:38:13,080
Now, if you get a nice ringing sound,
you're all set.
477
00:38:14,793 --> 00:38:16,875
Got a nice solid top over your head.
478
00:38:17,462 --> 00:38:22,252
You get a kind of hollow sound,
479
00:38:22,842 --> 00:38:24,082
like a drum,
480
00:38:25,053 --> 00:38:26,714
that slate's sagging a bit,
481
00:38:27,222 --> 00:38:29,258
and you got to put in another post.
482
00:38:30,099 --> 00:38:31,885
You dig coals a long time, eh?
483
00:38:31,976 --> 00:38:34,467
I've been going underground
since I was ten. You?
484
00:38:34,938 --> 00:38:40,308
We make shoe. Everybody in
same factory in Milano, make shoe.
485
00:38:41,945 --> 00:38:43,276
Shoes.
486
00:38:46,199 --> 00:38:48,030
You make shoes?
487
00:38:48,117 --> 00:38:49,277
Shoes.
488
00:38:50,203 --> 00:38:53,411
Soon as they get their union,
they'll send us packing.
489
00:38:54,082 --> 00:38:55,322
It could be.
490
00:38:56,334 --> 00:38:58,199
But you try and head out of here now,
491
00:38:58,878 --> 00:39:00,709
you be owing all that money like they say,
492
00:39:00,797 --> 00:39:02,458
company shoot you for a thief.
493
00:39:03,883 --> 00:39:07,796
We just some slaves up here.
They own our black asses.
494
00:39:09,138 --> 00:39:10,138
Gentlemen.
495
00:39:11,891 --> 00:39:13,677
Hey, few, I got a question for you.
496
00:39:14,060 --> 00:39:15,266
Yeah?
497
00:39:15,353 --> 00:39:17,969
Now, suppose they let us in this union
like they say.
498
00:39:18,606 --> 00:39:21,063
We going to have to work
with them Italian people?
499
00:39:22,735 --> 00:39:24,255
The bosses have the guns.
500
00:39:24,404 --> 00:39:26,770
- The miners have guns, too.
- Maybe, maybe not.
501
00:39:26,990 --> 00:39:29,197
I just don't want my family to starve.
502
00:39:29,409 --> 00:39:31,365
The miners have families, too.
503
00:39:31,703 --> 00:39:32,909
I et's vote.
504
00:39:32,996 --> 00:39:33,996
- Renato?
- Yes.
505
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:35,240
- Clemente?
- No.
506
00:39:35,331 --> 00:39:37,447
- Gianni?
- Hmm.
507
00:39:37,792 --> 00:39:39,407
Come on, babies.
508
00:39:39,502 --> 00:39:42,710
Come on and get it now. Come on. Come on.
509
00:39:47,135 --> 00:39:48,295
Come on, there.
510
00:39:49,554 --> 00:39:51,761
Come on. Come on.
511
00:39:51,848 --> 00:39:53,304
- Oh, boy.
- All right.
512
00:39:54,225 --> 00:39:56,216
- Taking a walk?
- Hi
513
00:39:57,103 --> 00:39:59,059
I'm going up to the coal camp.
514
00:39:59,564 --> 00:40:02,431
I'll meet those new fellas
when they come off their shift.
515
00:40:04,569 --> 00:40:06,651
You're doing union business, ain't you?
516
00:40:09,407 --> 00:40:11,238
How you like Mrs. radnor's?
517
00:40:11,910 --> 00:40:13,446
Well, there wasn't room.
518
00:40:14,037 --> 00:40:15,743
I'm at the hotel now.
519
00:40:15,830 --> 00:40:17,570
Isn't she a sourpuss though?
520
00:40:18,458 --> 00:40:22,701
Mr. kenehan!
They's evicting in town, Mr. kenehan.
521
00:40:23,212 --> 00:40:26,625
It's baldwins. It's them Baldwin thugs.
522
00:41:08,424 --> 00:41:09,960
This is town property.
523
00:41:11,219 --> 00:41:12,334
Who are you?
524
00:41:12,929 --> 00:41:14,135
I'm the mayor.
525
00:41:14,639 --> 00:41:17,005
Well, pleased to meet you.
526
00:41:17,558 --> 00:41:20,766
My name is bill hickey.
This is Tom griggs.
527
00:41:21,187 --> 00:41:23,147
We're carrying out an eviction
for stone mountain.
528
00:41:23,982 --> 00:41:26,473
You can do what you want
up at the coal camp,
529
00:41:26,567 --> 00:41:28,307
but this is town property.
530
00:41:28,403 --> 00:41:31,315
Stone mountain holds the deeds
on these houses, cabell.
531
00:41:32,532 --> 00:41:34,397
You need a writ for eviction.
532
00:41:36,828 --> 00:41:38,443
You the law around here?
533
00:41:38,997 --> 00:41:41,909
Well, good.
Then you can help us.
534
00:41:42,500 --> 00:41:45,663
Now, these people are trespassing
on company property.
535
00:41:45,753 --> 00:41:48,836
They all signed a contract
that they wouldn't join any union.
536
00:41:48,923 --> 00:41:52,632
You, uh, you Baldwin-felts agency?
537
00:41:53,678 --> 00:41:54,884
That's right.
538
00:41:56,514 --> 00:41:59,881
Presently employed
by the stone mountain coal company.
539
00:42:02,270 --> 00:42:04,636
This is from Mr. turley here...
540
00:42:05,648 --> 00:42:09,687
And this is from our boss,
Mr. Thomas felts.
541
00:42:10,903 --> 00:42:12,814
I've met Mr. felts.
542
00:42:14,782 --> 00:42:17,569
Well, good, we won't have any problem.
543
00:42:17,660 --> 00:42:20,572
I wouldn't pee on him
if his heart was on fire.
544
00:42:25,918 --> 00:42:28,000
Neither of these will do for a writ.
545
00:42:28,087 --> 00:42:30,169
You'll have to see a judge in Charleston.
546
00:42:31,758 --> 00:42:33,999
What if we ain't got time
to go to Charleston?
547
00:42:34,635 --> 00:42:36,091
Then you'd better find some.
548
00:42:37,388 --> 00:42:40,846
Now, I can't do nothing
about what you pull outside town limits,
549
00:42:40,933 --> 00:42:43,094
but you bother these people
under my jurisdiction,
550
00:42:43,186 --> 00:42:44,801
I'll put you under arrest.
551
00:42:45,563 --> 00:42:46,563
Yeah?
552
00:42:47,106 --> 00:42:48,221
You and whose army?
553
00:42:53,988 --> 00:42:57,480
All you men own a gun, go home and get it.
554
00:42:58,534 --> 00:43:00,195
You're deputies as of now.
555
00:43:03,122 --> 00:43:06,159
The rest of you people stick close.
We'll need withesses.
556
00:43:08,586 --> 00:43:12,295
I'm giving you ten minutes to get those
people's belongings back in the house.
557
00:43:12,381 --> 00:43:14,747
If the rest of the boys was here,
you wouldn't be so cocky.
558
00:43:17,303 --> 00:43:20,295
If the rest of the boys was here,
I'd give you five minutes.
559
00:43:21,390 --> 00:43:22,596
Now, move it.
560
00:43:39,283 --> 00:43:40,944
You can't win, you know.
561
00:43:41,619 --> 00:43:44,361
This is going to happen with you,
without you.
562
00:43:45,123 --> 00:43:46,488
You can't stop it.
563
00:43:50,670 --> 00:43:53,878
All right, boys, let's put it back in.
564
00:43:54,966 --> 00:43:56,581
This ain't our day.
565
00:43:56,676 --> 00:43:59,338
Attaboy, sid!
566
00:43:59,428 --> 00:44:00,508
You all right, honey?
567
00:44:04,767 --> 00:44:06,473
Some of them turning yellow.
568
00:44:11,524 --> 00:44:14,732
I never seen a lawman
buck a company gun before.
569
00:44:20,908 --> 00:44:22,990
He's mostly a real nice feller, sid.
570
00:44:23,077 --> 00:44:26,444
I want to be mayor of a town,
not mayor of a cemetery.
571
00:44:27,248 --> 00:44:29,204
Contention makes him nervous though.
572
00:44:31,210 --> 00:44:33,542
We got a motion on the floor here.
573
00:44:36,257 --> 00:44:38,168
And this is coal miners only.
574
00:44:42,430 --> 00:44:46,764
All them in favor of keeping them scabs
out of the mines tomorrow morning
575
00:44:46,851 --> 00:44:50,389
using whatever force
it looks like is necessary...
576
00:44:52,190 --> 00:44:53,521
Raise your hands.
577
00:45:04,702 --> 00:45:06,067
It's settled then.
578
00:45:11,083 --> 00:45:12,619
Pass them peas, boy.
579
00:45:19,842 --> 00:45:21,127
Pass the peas, Danny.
580
00:45:24,055 --> 00:45:25,966
The boy deaf or dumb or what?
581
00:45:26,432 --> 00:45:28,969
Daniel ain't dumb. Daniel's a preacher.
582
00:45:30,561 --> 00:45:31,971
That right, boy? You a preacher?
583
00:45:33,564 --> 00:45:35,225
Who do you preach to, boy?
584
00:45:35,316 --> 00:45:36,601
Squirrels?
585
00:45:36,692 --> 00:45:39,183
Daniel preached at the meeting last night.
586
00:45:39,278 --> 00:45:41,360
It was a good number of souls there.
587
00:45:41,739 --> 00:45:43,070
You a soul saver, boy?
588
00:45:47,453 --> 00:45:50,536
You want to have a go at me and griggsy.
We ought to be a real challenge.
589
00:45:51,457 --> 00:45:53,288
He's a squirrel preacher, is what.
590
00:45:53,709 --> 00:45:57,873
Stands up on a stump out in the woods
and testifies to the holy rodent.
591
00:45:57,964 --> 00:46:00,501
- Danny!
- You in a hurry to meet your maker, boy?
592
00:46:02,718 --> 00:46:05,801
- Ain't no guns allowed at table.
- Sit down, Danny.
593
00:46:10,518 --> 00:46:13,931
You do what your pretty mama says,
preacher.
594
00:46:25,241 --> 00:46:26,822
You put that away now, mister.
595
00:46:29,287 --> 00:46:31,027
Pack it away, griggsy.
596
00:46:33,624 --> 00:46:36,457
Look, we're going to be here a while,
little lady.
597
00:46:36,544 --> 00:46:38,660
You can have it the easy way
or the hard way.
598
00:46:41,465 --> 00:46:43,001
Now, how about them peas?
599
00:46:50,141 --> 00:46:52,097
Boy's getting on my nerves.
600
00:47:08,409 --> 00:47:09,649
Oh, lord!
601
00:47:10,286 --> 00:47:12,322
They told me they would talk
to the fellas.
602
00:47:12,413 --> 00:47:15,997
I saw their faces last night, Joe.
They wasn't buying it.
603
00:47:16,083 --> 00:47:17,843
We're playing right
into the company's plans.
604
00:47:17,918 --> 00:47:21,081
The men voted, Joe.
Now, what more do you want?
605
00:47:21,172 --> 00:47:23,254
Sephus!
606
00:47:25,676 --> 00:47:27,883
I seen the lights on the hill.
607
00:47:27,970 --> 00:47:30,086
They're sneaking them in
for a night shift.
608
00:47:33,934 --> 00:47:35,424
Let's go, fellas.
609
00:47:45,404 --> 00:47:47,444
Hillard told me
you was sent from the union.
610
00:47:47,531 --> 00:47:48,646
Uh-huh.
611
00:47:48,741 --> 00:47:50,823
I bet you seen hundreds of strikes.
612
00:47:51,452 --> 00:47:52,817
Yeah.
613
00:47:52,912 --> 00:47:55,403
I got thrown clear out of the missionary
the other night,
614
00:47:55,498 --> 00:47:57,238
talking the union from the pulpit.
615
00:47:58,584 --> 00:48:00,074
Is we getting close?
616
00:48:00,795 --> 00:48:01,955
Up there.
617
00:48:08,469 --> 00:48:10,960
Here they come!
618
00:48:14,350 --> 00:48:16,636
- They're down the hill!
- Over here!
619
00:49:13,409 --> 00:49:16,822
When our fellas put their lanterns out,
you just hit the dirt.
620
00:49:49,987 --> 00:49:51,568
I think this belongs to you.
621
00:50:01,999 --> 00:50:04,957
Yeah. I'm with him.
622
00:50:05,711 --> 00:50:07,542
Hooray for the dagos!
623
00:50:10,007 --> 00:50:13,716
All of you union men,
let's welcome our new brothers.
624
00:50:24,146 --> 00:50:25,306
From now on...
625
00:50:26,524 --> 00:50:29,436
Stone mountain
don't move one piece of coal
626
00:50:29,527 --> 00:50:31,768
unless it's a union man that moves it.
627
00:50:34,573 --> 00:50:35,904
Let's get out of here.
628
00:50:50,714 --> 00:50:52,250
Glad you could join us.
629
00:51:17,908 --> 00:51:21,617
In them days, the coal company
owned your camp houses,
630
00:51:21,704 --> 00:51:23,285
they owned your Lana,
631
00:51:23,372 --> 00:51:26,580
they owned most of the fown
and the people who run it.
632
00:51:27,042 --> 00:51:28,907
If you wasn't for the company,
633
00:51:29,003 --> 00:51:32,791
there wasn't too many places you could go
that was still on the map.
634
00:51:49,648 --> 00:51:53,732
The union didn't have too much
they could give to the people back then.
635
00:51:54,111 --> 00:51:58,696
"All we got in common is our misery,"
Joe kenehan used fo say,
636
00:51:58,782 --> 00:52:00,989
"and the least we can do is share it”
637
00:52:09,877 --> 00:52:11,083
Coming through!
638
00:52:13,172 --> 00:52:14,207
Come on.
639
00:52:31,482 --> 00:52:33,188
What are you staring at?
640
00:52:35,486 --> 00:52:37,101
She got the evil eye, that one.
641
00:52:40,157 --> 00:52:41,647
Oh, mama.
642
00:52:41,742 --> 00:52:43,542
Don't you let me catch you
peeking over there.
643
00:52:43,577 --> 00:52:45,568
She got the evil eye if I ever seen it.
644
00:52:51,585 --> 00:52:53,200
Well, what do we got here?
645
00:52:53,295 --> 00:52:55,786
We brung you some food.
Mama stole it from the company.
646
00:52:55,881 --> 00:52:56,916
Quiet, Danny.
647
00:52:57,299 --> 00:52:59,335
Well, we can use everything you got.
648
00:53:00,094 --> 00:53:03,086
You people are crazy.
You ain't never going to win this thing.
649
00:53:03,180 --> 00:53:04,920
Then what are you helping us for?
650
00:53:08,185 --> 00:53:09,595
I got work to do.
651
00:53:12,481 --> 00:53:13,971
We appreciate your help.
652
00:53:15,067 --> 00:53:17,683
I ain't never seen everybody
all together like this.
653
00:53:18,278 --> 00:53:20,018
Company don't stand a chance.
654
00:54:04,158 --> 00:54:05,238
Jessie...
655
00:54:21,592 --> 00:54:23,253
What's the pitch?
656
00:54:24,511 --> 00:54:27,253
Well, I was just saying to the mayor here
657
00:54:27,347 --> 00:54:31,465
how we're all trying to do our jobs,
658
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:34,097
you and me and him.
659
00:54:34,730 --> 00:54:39,099
And nobody is paying us enough
to be dodging no bullets for it.
660
00:54:41,612 --> 00:54:43,978
Um, now,
661
00:54:44,573 --> 00:54:50,068
Mr. felts has authorized me
to make it more attractive
662
00:54:50,162 --> 00:54:52,869
for you gentlemen to cooperate.
663
00:54:53,373 --> 00:54:55,364
Town ain't for sale, mister.
664
00:54:59,546 --> 00:55:00,911
What about you?
665
00:55:02,508 --> 00:55:07,468
Now, I figure that little show you were
putting on out there the other day
666
00:55:07,554 --> 00:55:10,216
was just for bargaining power.
667
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,216
Or are you going to be stupid too?
668
00:55:24,446 --> 00:55:29,156
Either of you shit hogs
lift a finger in town limits,
669
00:55:29,785 --> 00:55:31,195
I'll put you away.
670
00:55:38,502 --> 00:55:41,289
Damn hillbillies always got to do it
the hard way.
671
00:55:49,221 --> 00:55:54,341
You boys are going up against some...
Pretty big people.
672
00:56:07,364 --> 00:56:09,025
Don't push your luck.
673
00:56:26,425 --> 00:56:28,131
How's Jessie these days?
674
00:56:28,218 --> 00:56:30,300
Oh, she's okay, sid.
675
00:56:32,306 --> 00:56:33,796
You think they're bluffing?
676
00:56:36,351 --> 00:56:37,351
Nope.
677
00:56:39,479 --> 00:56:40,935
Neither am I.
678
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,437
Now, the way the relief fund works
is kind of tricky...
679
00:56:50,574 --> 00:56:54,317
'Cause of all the different situations
we got going around the country.
680
00:56:55,495 --> 00:56:57,326
I mean, we're stretched real thin.
681
00:56:57,664 --> 00:57:00,872
There's a lot of strategy
to who gets what and when.
682
00:57:01,376 --> 00:57:03,458
I report to the strike committee,
683
00:57:04,046 --> 00:57:06,537
and they evaluate the progress
we're making here
684
00:57:06,632 --> 00:57:08,088
and the political situation,
685
00:57:08,175 --> 00:57:10,587
and then they release
the strike fund to us.
686
00:57:10,677 --> 00:57:11,883
You mean they'd cut us off?
687
00:57:13,263 --> 00:57:18,178
- No, the amount that we get is based on...
- What if they think we're going to lose?
688
00:57:20,103 --> 00:57:24,016
Look, the strike committee considers
what's best for the union as a whole,
689
00:57:24,107 --> 00:57:26,223
- but that doesn't mean...
- Politics, boys.
690
00:57:26,735 --> 00:57:29,522
Going to play union,
you got to play politics.
691
00:57:30,405 --> 00:57:33,112
I'm sure Joe don't like that
no more than you do.
692
00:58:05,399 --> 00:58:07,390
Come. Come closer.
693
00:58:43,812 --> 00:58:46,645
- I don't like it one damn bit.
- Me neither.
694
00:58:46,732 --> 00:58:50,395
I didn't get into this thing so I'd have
one more boss to tell me what to do.
695
00:58:50,485 --> 00:58:52,146
The union isn't your boss, it's you.
696
00:58:52,237 --> 00:58:53,977
Then why we got to wait
697
00:58:54,072 --> 00:58:57,405
for some hunkies up in Pittsburgh
to give us the word to move?
698
00:58:57,492 --> 00:58:59,323
'Cause it's a democracy.
699
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:02,862
It's like the United States. A democracy.
700
00:59:02,956 --> 00:59:04,321
That's a joke.
701
00:59:04,416 --> 00:59:05,496
Quiet.
702
00:59:11,423 --> 00:59:12,984
Get down, they're shooting!
703
00:59:13,008 --> 00:59:15,340
Go away!
704
00:59:16,178 --> 00:59:18,898
- Stay put, they'll cut you down.
- The hell with that!
705
00:59:22,601 --> 00:59:24,307
Keep your head down, son.
706
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,351
They're going to make a night of it.
707
00:59:41,661 --> 00:59:42,992
It's ruined.
708
00:59:46,124 --> 00:59:47,864
Sarah, come over here with that.
709
00:59:47,959 --> 00:59:50,450
You got a little piece of bullet
left in there.
710
00:59:51,421 --> 00:59:53,537
Company doctor said he wouldn't come out,
711
00:59:54,216 --> 00:59:56,832
but there's a fella in pikeville
on the Kentucky side
712
00:59:56,927 --> 00:59:59,339
that'll treat union men on the sly.
713
01:00:00,347 --> 01:00:01,632
He'll be here by noon.
714
01:00:02,682 --> 01:00:04,218
Will he treat colored?
715
01:00:04,935 --> 01:00:06,926
If he treats union, he'll treat colored.
716
01:00:07,479 --> 01:00:09,435
- More water, Danny.
- Yes, ma'am.
717
01:00:10,023 --> 01:00:12,639
You just hold this up there
against that real gentle.
718
01:00:12,734 --> 01:00:14,294
- Don't press hard.
- Hey, elma...
719
01:00:15,195 --> 01:00:16,480
You seen any of the men?
720
01:00:18,782 --> 01:00:20,272
Only them that's wounded.
721
01:00:23,286 --> 01:00:25,447
- How's she doing?
- Not bad.
722
01:00:25,831 --> 01:00:27,617
At least nobody got killed.
723
01:00:28,333 --> 01:00:29,914
No thanks to you.
724
01:00:31,753 --> 01:00:33,118
Take it easy, buddy.
725
01:00:34,047 --> 01:00:35,503
Morning, Joe.
726
01:00:35,590 --> 01:00:38,377
Hey, bridey.
You seen any of the fellas?
727
01:00:38,468 --> 01:00:39,799
Not a one.
728
01:00:42,514 --> 01:00:44,175
He's real nice-looking.
729
01:00:45,559 --> 01:00:48,346
He likes me, I can tell.
730
01:00:48,436 --> 01:00:49,551
How?
731
01:00:50,272 --> 01:00:52,388
I just know men, that's all.
732
01:00:53,191 --> 01:00:54,601
That'd make a cat laugh.
733
01:00:57,404 --> 01:01:00,049
- If you want to make that kind of slop...
- Let me go, you old witch!
734
01:01:00,073 --> 01:01:01,279
Your food is for pigs!
735
01:01:02,033 --> 01:01:04,053
- No, even pigs wouldn't eat it.
- This is the United States.
736
01:01:04,077 --> 01:01:05,692
We do things different.
737
01:01:05,787 --> 01:01:07,197
Listen to me.
738
01:01:07,289 --> 01:01:09,517
- You can learn something here.
- Your food is poison.
739
01:01:09,541 --> 01:01:11,623
How do they eat that swill without dying?
740
01:01:11,710 --> 01:01:14,827
- Ladies, what's the problem?
- This idiot won't let me make polenta!
741
01:01:14,921 --> 01:01:18,209
I thought she'd make corn bread with it.
You should see the slop she made.
742
01:01:18,967 --> 01:01:22,459
She can poison her own people,
but half of this is mine.
743
01:01:22,554 --> 01:01:25,637
Mrs. elkins, now, these people
got their own way of doing things.
744
01:01:25,724 --> 01:01:28,966
Well, that is a waste of good cornmeal
if you ask me.
745
01:01:29,060 --> 01:01:32,268
She makes up this porridgely kind of mess.
I wouldn't feed it to the pigs.
746
01:01:32,355 --> 01:01:33,765
Listen!
747
01:01:35,650 --> 01:01:36,856
The soldiers.
748
01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:40,402
They're coming back to kill us.
749
01:01:41,907 --> 01:01:43,522
Where's all the men gone to?
750
01:01:50,665 --> 01:01:52,656
That changes the whole picture.
751
01:01:53,543 --> 01:01:57,502
What I'm saying is,
unions is fine for some things,
752
01:01:58,006 --> 01:02:00,668
but for other things,
a man's got to go on his own.
753
01:02:02,260 --> 01:02:03,716
Of course, that's up to you.
754
01:02:05,722 --> 01:02:06,722
Fausto?
755
01:02:11,811 --> 01:02:16,100
You make s/ndacato,
you do what the sindacato say.
756
01:02:17,692 --> 01:02:18,692
I listen to Joe.
757
01:02:21,821 --> 01:02:22,981
Few clothes?
758
01:02:24,783 --> 01:02:26,990
We going to be shooting white folks,
right?
759
01:02:28,119 --> 01:02:29,234
That's the idea.
760
01:02:31,748 --> 01:02:34,364
People hear about black folks
shooting white folks,
761
01:02:34,459 --> 01:02:35,869
no matter what it's for,
762
01:02:36,503 --> 01:02:38,118
there's going to be hell to pay.
763
01:02:39,589 --> 01:02:40,829
You got a point.
764
01:02:43,468 --> 01:02:44,583
Well, then...
765
01:02:45,804 --> 01:02:48,466
If you gentlemen will excuse us.
766
01:02:52,477 --> 01:02:53,717
Let's go.
767
01:03:00,235 --> 01:03:05,855
You people have been put out
of stone mountain mine housing...
768
01:03:06,741 --> 01:03:11,861
And some of you have seen fit
to take along certain items
769
01:03:11,955 --> 01:03:15,618
of food, furniture, and clothing
that don't belong to you
770
01:03:15,709 --> 01:03:17,165
but belong to the company.
771
01:03:20,630 --> 01:03:22,791
As of the day of the strike,
772
01:03:22,882 --> 01:03:26,170
your scrip ceased to be legal tender,
773
01:03:26,261 --> 01:03:30,721
meaning that any item of food,
clothing, and furniture
774
01:03:30,807 --> 01:03:33,640
not paid for in cash money...
775
01:03:34,894 --> 01:03:38,557
Must be turned over to me and my deputies.
776
01:03:39,691 --> 01:03:42,398
I suggest that you all cooperate.
777
01:03:44,029 --> 01:03:45,189
See, my boys...
778
01:03:46,281 --> 01:03:48,272
They didn't get much sleep last night,
779
01:03:48,783 --> 01:03:50,148
so they're kind of jumpy.
780
01:03:52,245 --> 01:03:55,282
Besides, we got the law on our side.
781
01:03:55,373 --> 01:03:58,661
You ain't no law!
You got to slip around the real law.
782
01:04:00,086 --> 01:04:01,872
You just got guns is all.
783
01:04:02,297 --> 01:04:04,663
You just thugs...
784
01:04:05,717 --> 01:04:09,801
Yeah, maybe you're right, Sonny.
We just got guns.
785
01:04:10,722 --> 01:04:13,384
You still got to hand in them goods.
786
01:04:13,933 --> 01:04:15,048
Yellow scab-herder...
787
01:04:17,812 --> 01:04:19,677
Hillard, you get up from there.
788
01:04:19,773 --> 01:04:21,513
Hey, you got a list of goods?
789
01:04:24,569 --> 01:04:26,184
Don't need one.
790
01:04:26,279 --> 01:04:28,986
How you gonna know what belongs
to the company and what don't?
791
01:04:30,116 --> 01:04:31,447
He's the red, hickey.
792
01:04:33,411 --> 01:04:34,742
He's the agitator.
793
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,207
Everybody, see I don't got a gun on me?
794
01:04:47,634 --> 01:04:50,842
What good do you think
that's going to do you, red?
795
01:04:52,222 --> 01:04:54,713
You shoot me, folks'll know it was murder.
796
01:04:55,767 --> 01:04:58,383
Well, that's some cold comfort.
797
01:05:00,146 --> 01:05:01,932
Now, you listen to me, red.
798
01:05:20,708 --> 01:05:22,118
We was hunting.
799
01:05:24,796 --> 01:05:27,162
You folks are making
an awful lot of commotion.
800
01:05:27,257 --> 01:05:29,168
You scared all the game away.
801
01:05:31,177 --> 01:05:32,383
This your machine?
802
01:05:34,305 --> 01:05:36,136
Heard it last night too.
803
01:05:36,724 --> 01:05:38,635
It's an offense to the ear.
804
01:05:38,726 --> 01:05:41,763
Hold it, pops,
you're talking to the law here.
805
01:05:43,148 --> 01:05:44,854
He ask you anything?
806
01:05:46,192 --> 01:05:49,480
Where'd you get that thing, pal?
The Spanish war?
807
01:05:53,116 --> 01:05:54,116
Nope.
808
01:05:56,202 --> 01:05:57,942
War between the states.
809
01:05:58,663 --> 01:06:02,531
You all get in this machine
and get back into town where you belong.
810
01:06:03,209 --> 01:06:05,040
Ain't but one law out here,
811
01:06:05,670 --> 01:06:07,160
and that's the law of nature.
812
01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:12,586
Let's get the hell out of here.
813
01:06:36,493 --> 01:06:39,610
Folks, try and keep the noise down,
you'll do fine.
814
01:06:40,705 --> 01:06:42,821
Help yourself to the bird
and the rabbit...
815
01:06:44,042 --> 01:06:46,374
But you see any hogs,
they's probably ours.
816
01:06:46,836 --> 01:06:49,043
We'd appreciate it if you'd leave them be.
817
01:06:50,089 --> 01:06:51,420
Good day to you.
818
01:07:02,810 --> 01:07:04,596
Are you okay, Joe?
819
01:07:04,687 --> 01:07:07,144
Yeah, I'd be all right
if it weren't for my ribs.
820
01:07:07,232 --> 01:07:08,438
On.
821
01:07:08,525 --> 01:07:09,685
Who were those people?
822
01:07:09,776 --> 01:07:12,518
Rossums, mostly, and a shuttleworth.
823
01:07:14,739 --> 01:07:17,355
They miners?
You never find them folks near a hole.
824
01:07:17,450 --> 01:07:19,486
They had most of their land
stole by the company.
825
01:07:19,577 --> 01:07:21,818
- They's hill people.
- Foothill people, really.
826
01:07:21,913 --> 01:07:23,995
Your genuine hill people.
827
01:07:24,082 --> 01:07:25,367
They can be dangerous.
828
01:07:35,134 --> 01:07:40,128
Now, the thing you got to remember, son,
is your fuse burns one foot per minute.
829
01:07:40,723 --> 01:07:42,714
Make it too long, they might see it.
830
01:07:44,769 --> 01:07:49,012
Make it too short, we'll all
be meeting you on the other side.
831
01:08:04,122 --> 01:08:05,122
Damn it.
832
01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:14,836
Air shaft number 4.
833
01:08:15,925 --> 01:08:17,290
Go out the back way.
834
01:08:39,699 --> 01:08:41,530
We seem kind of lonely here tonight.
835
01:08:43,745 --> 01:08:46,236
Where's all our other friends tonight,
miss elma?
836
01:08:46,331 --> 01:08:48,538
They get tired of the Chuck or what?
837
01:08:50,335 --> 01:08:54,499
I think that old biddy went on strike,
laid down her teeth in protest.
838
01:08:54,589 --> 01:08:57,205
They're just particular
about who they eat with.
839
01:08:57,592 --> 01:08:59,378
What about you, miss elma?
840
01:09:00,178 --> 01:09:01,463
Are you particular?
841
01:09:03,514 --> 01:09:05,326
If stone mountain didn't hold
the lease here...
842
01:09:05,350 --> 01:09:06,910
If stone mountain didn't hold the lease,
843
01:09:06,934 --> 01:09:08,854
you'd be peddling poontang
down in cinder bottom,
844
01:09:08,936 --> 01:09:10,642
so just shut your mouth about it.
845
01:09:23,034 --> 01:09:25,366
Where's the little preacher tonight?
846
01:09:40,426 --> 01:09:42,166
Bitch got no table manners.
847
01:09:56,943 --> 01:09:57,978
Elma?
848
01:10:03,950 --> 01:10:05,315
You know where Danny is?
849
01:10:06,828 --> 01:10:10,320
No. I don't know where anybody is.
850
01:10:10,415 --> 01:10:12,906
- And nobody wants to tell me either.
- Mmm.
851
01:10:15,837 --> 01:10:16,997
You okay?
852
01:10:17,088 --> 01:10:18,888
Yeah, I'm just tired, is all.
853
01:10:20,967 --> 01:10:23,379
I been working all day. This place...
854
01:10:26,556 --> 01:10:28,046
I been working...
855
01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:33,393
The day they burned my husband, I started,
856
01:10:33,479 --> 01:10:35,640
and I been working, and it...
857
01:10:36,816 --> 01:10:38,647
It don't never stop.
858
01:10:39,861 --> 01:10:41,351
I get so tired,
859
01:10:42,113 --> 01:10:45,480
and... there ain't nobody.
860
01:10:45,575 --> 01:10:46,940
Look, it's hard.
861
01:10:48,369 --> 01:10:50,075
It's hard being on your own.
862
01:10:58,588 --> 01:11:00,294
You don't know nothing about it.
863
01:11:03,468 --> 01:11:05,754
We're in business, buddy.
Let's get the boys.
864
01:11:15,855 --> 01:11:19,063
- What is it?
- Sounds like dynamite up at the mine.
865
01:11:19,150 --> 01:11:21,232
Might be that number 5 shaft.
866
01:11:34,373 --> 01:11:36,079
Might be some shooting.
867
01:11:40,463 --> 01:11:41,794
Hillard!
868
01:11:43,257 --> 01:11:45,088
Hillard!
869
01:11:45,176 --> 01:11:48,919
You seen my boy?
Anybody seen my boy, Hillard?
870
01:11:49,806 --> 01:11:51,216
That'll be the baldwins.
871
01:11:51,307 --> 01:11:52,592
Hillard!
872
01:12:01,108 --> 01:12:02,894
Anybody seen my Hillard?
873
01:12:47,321 --> 01:12:49,277
It's baldwins up the hill!
874
01:12:50,241 --> 01:12:52,232
Shoot low, boys! Cut them down.
875
01:12:54,954 --> 01:12:56,444
They're up behind us!
876
01:12:56,789 --> 01:12:57,949
Get him!
877
01:13:00,251 --> 01:13:02,867
You fellas get on out of here.
I'll hold them back.
878
01:13:11,721 --> 01:13:13,882
Reece! Reece, get up!
879
01:13:18,311 --> 01:13:19,767
Sephus, come on!
880
01:13:26,944 --> 01:13:29,651
Okay, boys, spread out.
He's here somewhere.
881
01:13:29,739 --> 01:13:33,197
- I got him! He's over here!
- Hold on, hold on, boys. It's me.
882
01:13:33,784 --> 01:13:36,070
Hold your fire, boys. It's c.E.
883
01:13:37,121 --> 01:13:38,327
You all right?
884
01:13:40,041 --> 01:13:41,656
You'd better get back to camp.
885
01:13:48,466 --> 01:13:50,081
Judas.
886
01:13:51,594 --> 01:13:53,175
Hold his leg.
887
01:13:53,638 --> 01:13:56,095
Hold it. Hold.
888
01:13:57,391 --> 01:14:00,133
I'm just going to pull this back
from your leg, boy.
889
01:14:01,979 --> 01:14:03,935
Now, give me back that knife, Hillard.
890
01:14:04,857 --> 01:14:06,097
Hey, what happened?
891
01:14:07,109 --> 01:14:10,897
We was sold.
Them baldwins come up from behind.
892
01:14:10,988 --> 01:14:12,524
Known right where we was laying out.
893
01:14:12,615 --> 01:14:14,981
They know'd when the men
was out of camp today too.
894
01:14:16,410 --> 01:14:17,695
How's she feeling, buddy?
895
01:14:18,162 --> 01:14:19,162
You made it.
896
01:14:20,373 --> 01:14:23,093
- I thought we'd lost you back there.
- I got off a couple of rounds,
897
01:14:23,167 --> 01:14:24,287
buried myself in the leaves.
898
01:14:25,711 --> 01:14:28,453
I seen Reece Hadley go down though.
Sephus get back?
899
01:14:30,091 --> 01:14:31,672
I don't think so.
900
01:14:31,759 --> 01:14:33,920
You see what happens, you pick up a gun?
901
01:14:34,220 --> 01:14:38,179
All I see is them niggers and dagos
weren't there tonight,
902
01:14:38,265 --> 01:14:41,382
and we was sold,
and somebody going to pay.
903
01:14:47,441 --> 01:14:49,682
Something bad's happening out there.
904
01:14:49,777 --> 01:14:52,769
- Those guns.
- Hunting party, that's all.
905
01:14:52,863 --> 01:14:54,148
Now, where was I?
906
01:14:55,950 --> 01:14:57,986
"Time to put all shyness..."
907
01:14:58,077 --> 01:15:01,945
Time to put all shyness aside...
908
01:15:03,457 --> 01:15:09,043
And admit to our heartfelt attraction.
909
01:15:10,506 --> 01:15:12,212
I'm not sure how you spell "attraction."
910
01:15:14,468 --> 01:15:15,628
How about...
911
01:15:16,637 --> 01:15:20,129
"Heartfelt desires"?
912
01:15:21,183 --> 01:15:22,969
Are you sure you want to do this?
913
01:15:23,060 --> 01:15:26,678
Heartfelt desires,
914
01:15:27,189 --> 01:15:31,603
dearest... Joseph.
915
01:15:32,570 --> 01:15:34,936
Get out of here! Shoo!
916
01:15:35,031 --> 01:15:38,444
- Look at that. Just covered with Gore.
- Dogs didn't do all that.
917
01:15:41,287 --> 01:15:42,993
Are you drawing breath, son?
918
01:15:43,998 --> 01:15:47,411
Baldwins. We was sold...
919
01:15:47,835 --> 01:15:49,450
What's your name?
920
01:15:49,545 --> 01:15:50,910
Bosephus...
921
01:15:52,715 --> 01:15:54,296
Sephus purcell.
922
01:15:54,675 --> 01:15:56,461
Kin to nimrod purcell?
923
01:15:58,387 --> 01:15:59,968
That's daddy's uncle.
924
01:16:01,098 --> 01:16:03,134
Say some Baldwin agents took you?
925
01:16:05,227 --> 01:16:06,637
From behind.
926
01:16:07,396 --> 01:16:10,638
None of them purcells
ever was too bright.
927
01:16:11,984 --> 01:16:15,021
Grab his ankles, missus,
and mind your dress.
928
01:16:15,112 --> 01:16:17,148
He's bleeding like a stuck pig.
929
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:30,491
I found him, boys. He's here.
930
01:16:35,633 --> 01:16:36,918
It's Reece.
931
01:16:47,103 --> 01:16:48,593
Got yourself a martyr.
932
01:16:50,815 --> 01:16:52,476
I tried to stop this.
933
01:16:55,194 --> 01:16:56,650
See any sign of sephus?
934
01:16:59,156 --> 01:17:01,488
We'll maybe smell him before we see him.
935
01:17:08,415 --> 01:17:09,415
They found somebody?
936
01:17:09,500 --> 01:17:12,333
Stay right here, honey.
Don't want to look at that mess.
937
01:17:13,379 --> 01:17:15,540
But I got something for Mr. kenehan.
938
01:17:17,133 --> 01:17:19,875
I don't think he's in no mood
to be bothered right now.
939
01:17:20,386 --> 01:17:21,626
I'll see he gets it.
940
01:17:24,014 --> 01:17:25,094
Who is it?
941
01:17:26,475 --> 01:17:29,933
Oh, just some poor miner
whose troubles is finally over.
942
01:17:31,730 --> 01:17:32,890
Don't look, honey.
943
01:17:35,317 --> 01:17:36,727
I talked to ellix.
944
01:17:37,069 --> 01:17:41,233
He says your phonograph machine's
going to be fixed in a couple days now.
945
01:17:42,575 --> 01:17:44,531
It's awful nice of you to do, Everett.
946
01:17:46,245 --> 01:17:49,237
Well, we got to take care
of our favorite lady now, don't we?
947
01:17:51,250 --> 01:17:52,956
You been so generous
948
01:17:53,711 --> 01:17:58,330
thinking about me when that Mr. kenehan
got you all so busy with the union.
949
01:18:00,176 --> 01:18:02,792
That Mr. kenehan is what I come
to talk to you about.
950
01:18:05,639 --> 01:18:10,099
I got a suspicion he might not be
what he says he is.
951
01:18:11,312 --> 01:18:12,312
What do you mean?
952
01:18:17,902 --> 01:18:22,145
Bridey, did you send kenehan
some sort of letter?
953
01:18:48,557 --> 01:18:49,717
What do you want?
954
01:18:51,810 --> 01:18:52,810
No.
955
01:18:53,854 --> 01:18:55,060
He wouldn't.
956
01:18:55,940 --> 01:18:58,522
There's a whole crowd of fellas
standing around him.
957
01:18:58,609 --> 01:19:01,726
I seen kenehan laughing,
waving that letter.
958
01:19:02,780 --> 01:19:05,647
So I come over to see what's so funny.
959
01:19:07,826 --> 01:19:09,407
A lot of fellas?
960
01:19:13,874 --> 01:19:15,865
You mind if I have another drink, honey?
961
01:19:18,420 --> 01:19:20,285
It ain't pretty what I got to say.
962
01:19:33,143 --> 01:19:34,974
He said some things, bridey...
963
01:19:36,647 --> 01:19:39,684
"She been following me around
ever since I got here...
964
01:19:41,110 --> 01:19:44,022
Trailing after me like a dog in heat,
965
01:19:44,113 --> 01:19:46,900
sniffing around my legs
like a brood bitch.
966
01:19:46,991 --> 01:19:48,856
She don't wear no drawers”, he says,
967
01:19:48,951 --> 01:19:52,535
"so she can be ready for whatever
stumbles down the pathway."
968
01:19:53,205 --> 01:19:54,570
He didn't!
969
01:19:59,461 --> 01:20:00,826
He didn't.
970
01:20:03,757 --> 01:20:06,749
He said you done it
with one of the coloreds.
971
01:20:08,262 --> 01:20:10,093
Lying bastard.
972
01:20:10,180 --> 01:20:13,672
Bridey, I think it might be
worse than that.
973
01:20:15,144 --> 01:20:19,433
I think he might be a spy
in with the coal operators.
974
01:20:20,316 --> 01:20:23,479
But he's got the fellas so turned around
with all his talk...
975
01:20:25,529 --> 01:20:27,485
I need for you to help me, bridey...
976
01:20:28,490 --> 01:20:31,948
And sometimes you got to tell
a little bit of a lie
977
01:20:32,536 --> 01:20:34,197
just to get the truth across.
978
01:20:36,582 --> 01:20:39,449
We fight them with guns, we lose.
979
01:20:41,795 --> 01:20:43,706
That's the whole damn story.
980
01:20:44,798 --> 01:20:46,254
I'm not going to bullshit you fellas
981
01:20:46,342 --> 01:20:49,926
and tell you there won't ever come a time
when the people that own this state
982
01:20:50,012 --> 01:20:51,843
send the word down
to have us all murdered.
983
01:20:52,639 --> 01:20:55,847
But if we don't stand together now
as workers...
984
01:20:56,977 --> 01:20:58,558
We got no hope at all.
985
01:21:13,786 --> 01:21:14,901
Help me up.
986
01:21:16,121 --> 01:21:17,121
You going somewhere?
987
01:21:17,498 --> 01:21:21,867
This is miners' business,
and you ain't no miner.
988
01:21:23,670 --> 01:21:24,670
You two come along.
989
01:21:38,102 --> 01:21:39,342
So, um...
990
01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:43,266
Last night he comes up here, and, uh...
991
01:21:44,441 --> 01:21:46,022
He's all drunk and everything,
992
01:21:46,110 --> 01:21:49,728
and I says how I didn't want
to have nothing to do with him, and...
993
01:21:50,155 --> 01:21:54,489
And I would call some of you fellas
for help,
994
01:21:54,576 --> 01:21:58,535
and he says that all of you was...
995
01:21:59,957 --> 01:22:01,447
Taken care of.
996
01:22:02,793 --> 01:22:04,499
Taken care of, huh?
997
01:22:04,878 --> 01:22:07,915
When I seen that there
wasn't no help, I...
998
01:22:11,427 --> 01:22:13,588
He, uh, kind of...
999
01:22:16,723 --> 01:22:20,716
Forced me, he... he forced me.
1000
01:22:22,271 --> 01:22:24,182
- C.e.
- Mmm?
1001
01:22:26,567 --> 01:22:30,025
That's okay.
You better hear this firsthand.
1002
01:22:30,821 --> 01:22:32,607
Go ahead, honey. What happened then?
1003
01:22:36,702 --> 01:22:41,116
And afterwards he thrown money on the bed,
1004
01:22:41,206 --> 01:22:43,913
like I were some kind of a whore.
1005
01:22:49,715 --> 01:22:51,671
You done just fine, honey.
1006
01:22:53,844 --> 01:22:56,961
Now, why don't you go sit outside
for a minute
1007
01:22:57,055 --> 01:22:59,717
while we figure out
what we're going to do about this?
1008
01:23:11,653 --> 01:23:15,362
So he don't have no sense with women.
So what?
1009
01:23:15,699 --> 01:23:17,781
You know how bridey builds things up.
1010
01:23:19,703 --> 01:23:24,788
Take a look at this that our friend
left laying on the floor last night.
1011
01:23:33,467 --> 01:23:36,004
Baldwin-felts agency.
1012
01:23:41,808 --> 01:23:42,843
What it say?
1013
01:23:42,935 --> 01:23:45,551
It's a death warrant, is what,
1014
01:23:45,646 --> 01:23:48,228
for Mr. Joseph kenehan.
1015
01:24:32,776 --> 01:24:36,189
So it's "good-bye, Mr. kenehan" tonight.
1016
01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:37,440
The miners?
1017
01:24:38,865 --> 01:24:40,196
How'd you manage that?
1018
01:24:41,285 --> 01:24:43,492
That tramp that goes to meet
the passenger train?
1019
01:24:43,579 --> 01:24:46,946
- Yeah?
- Seems she's got the eye for kenehan.
1020
01:24:47,374 --> 01:24:51,617
So he put it in her head that kenehan's
been bad-mouthing her all around town.
1021
01:24:52,087 --> 01:24:55,204
He's got her down there right now
crying to the miners,
1022
01:24:55,799 --> 01:24:59,542
and he's got these papers from bluefield.
1023
01:25:05,851 --> 01:25:08,058
I didn't leave my Colt like this.
1024
01:25:19,948 --> 01:25:21,779
You spying little bastard!
1025
01:25:23,368 --> 01:25:24,699
What'd you hear, huh?
1026
01:25:24,786 --> 01:25:26,026
- What did you hear?
- Nothing.
1027
01:25:26,121 --> 01:25:27,952
Horseshit! Hit him, bill!
1028
01:25:33,795 --> 01:25:35,080
See this medal?
1029
01:25:36,882 --> 01:25:40,124
You know how I won this,
preacher boy, huh?
1030
01:25:41,511 --> 01:25:45,299
I was sitting alone in a ditch in France,
1031
01:25:45,807 --> 01:25:49,391
and this kraut jumps in right next to me.
1032
01:25:50,228 --> 01:25:56,144
And I took my bayonet,
and I stuck him right in the face.
1033
01:25:57,736 --> 01:26:00,603
And then another jumps in,
and I stick him too.
1034
01:26:01,239 --> 01:26:04,481
And another and another and another.
1035
01:26:04,576 --> 01:26:08,660
They just kept coming, one at a time,
all night long.
1036
01:26:10,957 --> 01:26:14,620
And in a little bit, I got to worried
that they weren't all dead,
1037
01:26:14,711 --> 01:26:19,250
so I stuck them all again
a couple times just to make sure.
1038
01:26:21,468 --> 01:26:22,753
And in the morning...
1039
01:26:24,137 --> 01:26:26,549
They said that I was a war hero.
1040
01:26:29,976 --> 01:26:34,686
Well, I'm going to stay close
to you tonight, preacher boy.
1041
01:26:36,191 --> 01:26:39,809
And you let one wrong word fly,
1042
01:26:40,570 --> 01:26:42,811
and I'm going to put one in your skull,
1043
01:26:43,615 --> 01:26:46,072
and I'll do the same for your pretty mama.
1044
01:26:48,161 --> 01:26:50,868
You know I ain't lying, don't you, boy?
1045
01:26:51,957 --> 01:26:53,072
Yes, sir.
1046
01:26:54,418 --> 01:26:57,205
Man who draws the short straw
gets to do the job,
1047
01:26:57,796 --> 01:27:00,663
and word don't travel beyond this room
about who it is.
1048
01:27:02,217 --> 01:27:04,208
The rest of us will want a good alibi.
1049
01:27:05,262 --> 01:27:07,753
I figure in that prayer meeting tonight,
1050
01:27:07,848 --> 01:27:09,679
right under the preacher's nose.
1051
01:27:16,481 --> 01:27:18,267
Welcome to the union, son.
1052
01:27:36,293 --> 01:27:37,578
What's the story?
1053
01:27:39,337 --> 01:27:42,500
Ludie heard that the baldwins
was coming after you tonight,
1054
01:27:42,591 --> 01:27:46,675
and I'm supposed to stick by you.
1055
01:27:49,181 --> 01:27:51,467
You got the shit detail again, huh?
1056
01:28:16,750 --> 01:28:18,160
You all right, Danny?
1057
01:28:18,251 --> 01:28:20,492
You got your sermon memorized?
1058
01:28:21,129 --> 01:28:23,541
I bet he don't know any more scripture
than I do.
1059
01:28:23,632 --> 01:28:26,669
And that ain't a whole hell of a lot,
is it, griggsy?
1060
01:28:27,719 --> 01:28:29,129
You know any?
1061
01:28:29,221 --> 01:28:32,964
I never got no further than,
"in the beginning was the word."
1062
01:28:33,308 --> 01:28:36,596
Guess we both doomed to the hot place.
1063
01:28:39,064 --> 01:28:42,556
The lord relies on little shits
like this one to spread his word,
1064
01:28:42,651 --> 01:28:44,516
I don't want no truck with heaven.
1065
01:28:44,861 --> 01:28:49,525
And as for hell, well,
we been to West Virginia!
1066
01:28:52,077 --> 01:28:55,911

What in god's name you doing, son?
1081
01:30:05,066 --> 01:30:06,852
I just got your leaks all stopped up,
1082
01:30:06,943 --> 01:30:09,275
and here you're trying
to bust them open again.
1083
01:30:09,362 --> 01:30:11,819
I got to get down there. They got to know.
1084
01:30:11,907 --> 01:30:14,865
You ain't going nowhere,
unless it's in a pine box.
1085
01:30:14,951 --> 01:30:16,407
Where's your sense?
1086
01:30:17,203 --> 01:30:18,534
I got to...
1087
01:30:23,418 --> 01:30:25,204
Wish those fellas would get here.
1088
01:30:26,296 --> 01:30:27,502
Huh?
1089
01:30:28,840 --> 01:30:30,671
If they're coming, I wish they'd hurry up.
1090
01:30:30,759 --> 01:30:33,000
I don't want any more shooting
in the woods.
1091
01:30:33,511 --> 01:30:34,511
On.
1092
01:30:40,101 --> 01:30:41,591
You ever use one of those?
1093
01:30:46,775 --> 01:30:51,690
10th cavalry in Cuba back in '98.
1094
01:30:53,323 --> 01:30:54,733
San Juan hill.
1095
01:30:56,868 --> 01:30:58,404
Pretty rough down there?
1096
01:31:00,914 --> 01:31:02,120
Did what I had to.
1097
01:31:06,169 --> 01:31:07,830
It true you're a red?
1098
01:31:12,008 --> 01:31:13,839
Yeah, I suppose it is.
1099
01:31:15,553 --> 01:31:17,134
Then how come you don't carry a gun?
1100
01:31:19,265 --> 01:31:21,631
Well, we carry little round bombs.
1101
01:31:22,060 --> 01:31:23,641
Don't you read the papers?
1102
01:31:36,074 --> 01:31:40,488
I want to tell you tonight
about the blackness in the heart of man.
1103
01:31:40,829 --> 01:31:44,538
Going to warn you about the many
and devious ways in which Satan
1104
01:31:44,624 --> 01:31:48,993
will hide from you the truth
of who your real friends are.
1105
01:31:50,130 --> 01:31:52,121
I'll do it with a story
from the patriarchs.
1106
01:31:54,217 --> 01:31:57,630
Now, we all know about Joseph
and how out of all Jacob's 12 children,
1107
01:31:57,721 --> 01:31:59,882
he was the smartest and the smoothest,
1108
01:31:59,973 --> 01:32:03,261
and how his brothers got so jealous,
they pulled off his coat of many colors
1109
01:32:03,351 --> 01:32:06,809
and whooped on him
and left him out to be sold into slavery.
1110
01:32:08,982 --> 01:32:11,724
But Joseph was not your ordinary fella,
even for biblical times.
1111
01:32:11,818 --> 01:32:13,558
He had a special way with him,
1112
01:32:14,446 --> 01:32:17,279
a way of looking
at the grand scheme of things.
1113
01:32:17,365 --> 01:32:20,027
So when this fella potiphar
bought him for a slave,
1114
01:32:20,118 --> 01:32:23,781
Joseph just smiled and vowed
he was going to be a good one,
1115
01:32:23,872 --> 01:32:25,658
making the best of a bad situation.
1116
01:32:25,749 --> 01:32:29,367
He put his heart to his work and was
honest and friendly in his dealings,
1117
01:32:29,461 --> 01:32:32,999
and before you knew it, he was just about
running potiphar's households and fields
1118
01:32:33,089 --> 01:32:35,080
and all his businesses for him.
1119
01:32:36,676 --> 01:32:39,839
The only trouble was potiphar's wife.
1120
01:32:39,929 --> 01:32:42,591
Now, she was what you might call
a loose woman.
1121
01:32:43,016 --> 01:32:46,053
When I was in leavenworth,
there was a bunch of mennonites...
1122
01:32:48,063 --> 01:32:50,395
In because they wouldn't fight in the war.
1123
01:32:50,482 --> 01:32:51,938
It's against their religion.
1124
01:32:54,486 --> 01:32:57,148
It's also against their religion
to shave their beards
1125
01:32:57,238 --> 01:33:00,025
or wear buttons on their clothes,
1126
01:33:00,116 --> 01:33:04,280
and they was being forced to do both
by the prison guards.
1127
01:33:08,124 --> 01:33:09,580
So, they refused to work...
1128
01:33:11,878 --> 01:33:15,496
And they went on a strike,
right there in hell's half acre.
1129
01:33:16,091 --> 01:33:19,003
They was handcuffed to the bars
of a cell house,
1130
01:33:19,094 --> 01:33:21,426
eight hours a day for two full weeks.
1131
01:33:25,141 --> 01:33:28,633
They were put with their arms up
like this...
1132
01:33:30,563 --> 01:33:33,145
So's they had to stand on their toes
1133
01:33:33,233 --> 01:33:35,394
or those cuffs would cut
into their wrists.
1134
01:33:40,573 --> 01:33:43,064
Can't nobody stay on their toes
eight hours.
1135
01:33:46,579 --> 01:33:51,869
So, pretty soon their fingers
would start to swell up.
1136
01:33:53,461 --> 01:33:57,124
They'd turn blue,
and then they'd crack open.
1137
01:33:59,676 --> 01:34:01,712
Blood would run down their arms...
1138
01:34:03,263 --> 01:34:06,255
Eight hours a day, day after day.
1139
01:34:08,393 --> 01:34:10,099
And still they wouldn't work.
1140
01:34:12,564 --> 01:34:14,805
Still they tore the buttons
off their uniforms
1141
01:34:14,899 --> 01:34:16,764
every time they were sewed back on.
1142
01:34:17,193 --> 01:34:22,153
They tore them with their teeth because
their hands wouldn't close no more.
1143
01:34:28,788 --> 01:34:31,074
So now I don't claim a thing for myself.
1144
01:34:34,460 --> 01:34:39,580
But them fellas,
they never lifted a gun in their lives...
1145
01:34:42,802 --> 01:34:45,214
And you couldn't find any braver
in my book.
1146
01:34:54,939 --> 01:34:57,351
Wish them fellas would get here.
1147
01:35:01,279 --> 01:35:04,521
Also in potiphar's employ at this time
1148
01:35:04,616 --> 01:35:07,449
were a couple of spies
from one of his enemies.
1149
01:35:08,995 --> 01:35:10,915
Fellas that wanted to bring him down
in the world
1150
01:35:10,955 --> 01:35:12,786
and get their hands
on his fields and houses.
1151
01:35:12,874 --> 01:35:15,081
They seen the want and lust
in Mrs. potiphar,
1152
01:35:15,168 --> 01:35:16,888
and seen it would be good
for their purposes
1153
01:35:16,961 --> 01:35:18,792
to get shed of young Joseph.
1154
01:35:20,006 --> 01:35:21,496
So they come to potiphar's wife.
1155
01:35:42,111 --> 01:35:44,727
She calls Joseph in,
and she asks him one more time,
1156
01:35:44,822 --> 01:35:46,062
"Joseph, will you lie with me?"
1157
01:35:46,157 --> 01:35:48,193
And he says, "no, ma'am, I won't."
1158
01:35:48,284 --> 01:35:51,071
She sets up a ruckus
and grabs hold of his garment he's wearing
1159
01:35:51,162 --> 01:35:53,448
and rends it in two
before he can get clear.
1160
01:35:53,539 --> 01:35:55,575
Potiphar runs in then with his guards,
1161
01:35:55,667 --> 01:35:58,079
and she's bawling her eyes out
and shaking like a leaf.
1162
01:35:58,169 --> 01:35:59,955
"Your servant, Joseph," she says,
1163
01:36:00,046 --> 01:36:02,583
"he come in here
and tried to make me lie with him.
1164
01:36:02,674 --> 01:36:06,166
Only when I called out, he fled,
leaving this here garment as evidence.
1165
01:36:06,261 --> 01:36:07,876
And not only that," she says,
1166
01:36:07,971 --> 01:36:10,508
"he been spying and plotting against you
with your enemies.
1167
01:36:10,598 --> 01:36:13,385
He means to take over here
and have you killed."
1168
01:36:15,603 --> 01:36:18,891
Potiphar had no reason
to misbelieve his wife.
1169
01:36:18,982 --> 01:36:21,769
Joseph was a slave and a foreigner.
1170
01:36:22,944 --> 01:36:26,311
So he gathered up his servants
and household workers,
1171
01:36:26,406 --> 01:36:28,271
and they went and slew Joseph dead.
1172
01:36:29,867 --> 01:36:34,201
Cut him from gut to gizzard
and left him bleeding in the street.
1173
01:36:35,164 --> 01:36:37,906
And lo, they never learned
of Mrs. potiphar's lies
1174
01:36:38,001 --> 01:36:42,290
and went to their maker, unrepentant,
with innocent blood on their hands.
1175
01:36:44,966 --> 01:36:46,957
Draw your own conclusions.
1176
01:36:57,312 --> 01:37:04,104
I what a friend we have in Jesus j&
1177
01:37:04,193 --> 01:37:09,859
& all our sins and griefs to bear &
1178
01:37:10,325 --> 01:37:16,286
j; What a privilege to carry &
1179
01:37:21,753 --> 01:37:24,540
- Getting awful late.
- Shh.
1180
01:37:29,719 --> 01:37:31,050
You hear something?
1181
01:37:34,140 --> 01:37:36,426
- No. You?
- Yeah, I think I did.
1182
01:37:40,021 --> 01:37:41,352
Maybe it's the fellas.
1183
01:37:42,732 --> 01:37:44,973
I think we best go out there
and have a look.
1184
01:38:30,780 --> 01:38:32,771
Few. Few clothes. Few.
1185
01:39:03,646 --> 01:39:04,977
Who's that?
1186
01:39:05,064 --> 01:39:09,023
It's... Hillard.
1187
01:39:11,779 --> 01:39:13,110
Meeting's been called off.
1188
01:39:15,074 --> 01:39:17,190
Well, we better get back to camp, huh?
1189
01:39:20,830 --> 01:39:21,830
Wait a minute.
1190
01:39:26,752 --> 01:39:28,743
Well, at least we didn't waste a trip.
1191
01:39:29,088 --> 01:39:32,125
C.e.! C.E. Lively!
1192
01:39:33,885 --> 01:39:36,968
- Do something!
- No way. It won't spread.
1193
01:39:37,889 --> 01:39:40,631
- Is c.E. Inside?
- No such luck.
1194
01:39:44,729 --> 01:39:46,936
Let's find that son of a bitch.
1195
01:39:49,859 --> 01:39:52,271
Mind them windows!
They're going to blow!
1196
01:40:28,314 --> 01:40:31,522
How come they waste more food
in one day
1197
01:40:31,609 --> 01:40:34,851
than a poor worker's family
has on their table in a week?
1198
01:40:35,488 --> 01:40:37,319
Now, let me ask you,
1199
01:40:37,406 --> 01:40:40,773
whose sweat was it
that went into building those mansions?
1200
01:40:40,868 --> 01:40:44,076
Once they seen
how they'd almost done an innocent man,
1201
01:40:44,163 --> 01:40:45,949
it was like Joe couldn't say no wrong.
1202
01:40:46,040 --> 01:40:47,746
It's the workers, that's who.
1203
01:40:48,084 --> 01:40:50,621
We moved out into mingo county then,
1204
01:40:50,711 --> 01:40:52,747
spreading the word about the union,
1205
01:40:52,838 --> 01:40:56,296
spreading like wildfire
over fo red jacket
1206
01:40:56,384 --> 01:41:00,798
fo ragland and delbarton,
all up and down the tug fork river,
1207
01:41:00,888 --> 01:41:04,346
bringing the union out
to all the folks that needed help,
1208
01:41:04,433 --> 01:41:08,346
putting the spirit info them and trying
to shut down the whole southwest field.
1209
01:41:08,437 --> 01:41:13,022
They been helping themselves to our land
and our labor for too damn long.
1210
01:42:08,289 --> 01:42:11,781
Joe kenehan said how
there was a new day coming,
1211
01:42:11,876 --> 01:42:14,709
and sometimes [I could just about see it.
1212
01:42:15,254 --> 01:42:18,166
But it were a dangerous living
for a union man,
1213
01:42:18,257 --> 01:42:20,248
and you didn't dare turn your back.
1214
01:42:23,387 --> 01:42:26,845
/t was hard times,
and it was hungry times too.
1215
01:42:27,433 --> 01:42:29,389
The union relief was spread thin,
1216
01:42:29,477 --> 01:42:32,469
and the hope of a new day
can feed your soul,
1217
01:42:32,563 --> 01:42:34,554
but leave your belly rumbling.
1218
01:42:38,611 --> 01:42:39,691
Scoot.
1219
01:42:59,340 --> 01:43:01,922
They crowd us on a boat like animals.
1220
01:43:03,594 --> 01:43:05,380
Then they shoot at us.
1221
01:43:05,763 --> 01:43:06,878
And for what?
1222
01:43:07,807 --> 01:43:09,343
To starve just like in Milan.
1223
01:43:11,102 --> 01:43:12,512
Where have you been?
1224
01:43:14,563 --> 01:43:16,224
Who gave you that?
1225
01:43:17,525 --> 01:43:18,731
Lady?
1226
01:43:21,779 --> 01:43:25,863
Since there's just me and Hillard,
and you got all these little ones...
1227
01:43:27,326 --> 01:43:28,326
Well...
1228
01:43:31,288 --> 01:43:32,778
You know what to do with this?
1229
01:43:33,499 --> 01:43:34,909
Hillard brung it in.
1230
01:43:36,001 --> 01:43:37,001
Rabbit.
1231
01:43:37,378 --> 01:43:38,493
It's for you.
1232
01:43:39,255 --> 01:43:40,255
You're giving it to us?
1233
01:43:40,464 --> 01:43:42,750
I ain't going to watch
no babies go hungry.
1234
01:43:42,842 --> 01:43:45,629
Now, here, you go on. You take it.
1235
01:43:46,178 --> 01:43:48,419
Here's some Navy beans...
1236
01:43:49,473 --> 01:43:51,714
And these here is ramps.
1237
01:43:52,101 --> 01:43:54,012
Now, you can cook with these.
1238
01:43:55,104 --> 01:43:57,060
They'll put a taste in your stew.
1239
01:43:58,399 --> 01:43:59,684
Garlic.
1240
01:44:02,695 --> 01:44:03,775
Anyhow...
1241
01:44:07,116 --> 01:44:08,856
Would you like to sit with us?
1242
01:44:21,964 --> 01:44:23,044
Well, I...
1243
01:44:24,592 --> 01:44:26,958
Figure we's all in this together.
1244
01:44:31,682 --> 01:44:33,889
You sure got some pretty babies.
1245
01:44:38,689 --> 01:44:42,227
- Who's your favorite pitcher?
- Hod eller. He's from Logan county.
1246
01:44:45,070 --> 01:44:46,560
You get to play ball much?
1247
01:44:47,531 --> 01:44:48,771
When the mines were open.
1248
01:44:54,955 --> 01:44:55,990
Joe?
1249
01:44:56,957 --> 01:44:59,539
- Yeah?
- You ever kill anybody?
1250
01:45:03,589 --> 01:45:05,079
What brought that up?
1251
01:45:06,634 --> 01:45:07,794
Bet sid has.
1252
01:45:08,511 --> 01:45:09,717
He were in the war.
1253
01:45:14,016 --> 01:45:16,678
Well, all I saw was workers
killing workers...
1254
01:45:17,686 --> 01:45:19,347
And there wasn't any point in it.
1255
01:45:19,438 --> 01:45:21,394
They thrown you in jail
'cause you wouldn't go?
1256
01:45:22,775 --> 01:45:25,687
Them two years kept me
from killing some poor stiff
1257
01:45:25,778 --> 01:45:30,112
that got pushed out on a battlefield
by rich folks and politicians...
1258
01:45:31,659 --> 01:45:33,069
And they were worth it.
1259
01:45:41,126 --> 01:45:42,491
It's getting dark, Danny.
1260
01:45:45,881 --> 01:45:47,371
You'd better go get that coal.
1261
01:46:13,242 --> 01:46:16,279
See there,
right there by the railroad trestle?
1262
01:46:18,122 --> 01:46:21,580
That's where cap Hatfield
and his boy Joe Glenn killed three men.
1263
01:46:22,710 --> 01:46:24,166
Boy weren't but 13.
1264
01:46:24,253 --> 01:46:25,618
Used a Winchester.
1265
01:46:29,466 --> 01:46:31,331
You think it hurts much, a bullet?
1266
01:46:33,762 --> 01:46:36,253
Beats dying in a damn coal mine.
1267
01:46:39,602 --> 01:46:42,014
Boy weren't but 13 year old, Joe Glenn.
1268
01:47:02,249 --> 01:47:04,661
- He must be in there.
- Coleman?
1269
01:47:04,752 --> 01:47:06,743
He always sleeps with the lights on.
1270
01:47:06,837 --> 01:47:08,543
We just got to be quiet is all.
1271
01:47:27,149 --> 01:47:29,891
Let's get the little bastards!
1272
01:47:33,280 --> 01:47:34,280
Over here.
1273
01:47:36,867 --> 01:47:38,949
- Grab him.
- Cut him off!
1274
01:47:45,459 --> 01:47:47,450
Well, well, what we got here?
1275
01:47:49,254 --> 01:47:50,835
Smarts a little, don't it, boy?
1276
01:47:52,132 --> 01:47:53,497
Hillard, right?
1277
01:47:54,301 --> 01:47:59,921
Now, how about you give us the names
of your ring leaders up in Logan?
1278
01:48:00,265 --> 01:48:04,599
Give us five names, boy, that's all.
Five names and we'll let you go.
1279
01:48:04,979 --> 01:48:06,435
That's fair, isn't it?
1280
01:48:06,522 --> 01:48:07,637
Never.
1281
01:48:08,148 --> 01:48:09,228
Griggsy?
1282
01:48:12,861 --> 01:48:13,976
Talk to us, boy.
1283
01:48:16,490 --> 01:48:17,730
Talk to us!
1284
01:48:18,701 --> 01:48:20,407
I'll rot in hell first.
1285
01:48:20,911 --> 01:48:22,447
Have it your way.
1286
01:48:23,122 --> 01:48:24,487
Mr. lively.
1287
01:48:45,686 --> 01:48:51,181
Boy, I sentence you to death
for the crime of stealing company property
1288
01:48:51,275 --> 01:48:53,812
and being a dirty bolshevist union man.
1289
01:48:54,695 --> 01:48:56,606
You got ten seconds to talk.
1290
01:49:32,316 --> 01:49:34,022
Talk.
1291
01:49:38,989 --> 01:49:43,073
Whew, what a smell.
Boy dirtied his diapers.
1292
01:49:43,160 --> 01:49:44,696
We want names, son.
1293
01:49:45,704 --> 01:49:48,491
I can't, I sworn on a Bible.
1294
01:49:49,583 --> 01:49:52,290
Then we're going to have
to get down to it, son.
1295
01:49:53,212 --> 01:49:55,294
- Use the razor.
- Hold him, boys.
1296
01:50:01,762 --> 01:50:03,343
Just a little Nick, boy.
1297
01:50:07,392 --> 01:50:08,472
Aah.
1298
01:50:10,854 --> 01:50:12,685
Get it off your chest, son.
1299
01:50:16,151 --> 01:50:19,939
Plyant mounts, bill mahan,
1300
01:50:20,030 --> 01:50:23,067
Asa radnor, j.T. Keadle...
1301
01:50:24,785 --> 01:50:28,118
Five. Give us five, boy.
1302
01:50:28,205 --> 01:50:29,786
And Harley shilton.
1303
01:50:30,707 --> 01:50:34,700
- Kill him.
- No!
1304
01:50:54,022 --> 01:50:55,933
Where do them fellas he named live?
1305
01:50:57,025 --> 01:50:58,140
Clay hill.
1306
01:50:58,652 --> 01:50:59,732
Where's that?
1307
01:51:00,821 --> 01:51:02,357
It's a cemetery.
1308
01:51:03,907 --> 01:51:07,991
Them are all fellas was killed
in a gas fire, five, six year ago.
1309
01:51:20,340 --> 01:51:22,581
Nothing like a young boy dying...
1310
01:51:23,635 --> 01:51:25,045
To stir things up.
1311
01:52:14,645 --> 01:52:17,432
Baldwins coming into town tomorrow,
kenehan.
1312
01:52:49,596 --> 01:52:51,962
You fellas have any idea
what's waiting for us?
1313
01:52:53,350 --> 01:52:54,965
You mean they didn't tell you?
1314
01:52:55,310 --> 01:52:57,175
I just seen a line in the papers...
1315
01:52:57,271 --> 01:53:00,104
"Opportunity for red-blooded American men.
1316
01:53:00,524 --> 01:53:05,018
Immediate openings, high pay,
travel, chance for advancement.
1317
01:53:05,112 --> 01:53:08,229
Apply Baldwin-felts
and write your own ticket."
1318
01:53:08,991 --> 01:53:11,983
When the natives get restless someplace,
they put that out.
1319
01:53:13,287 --> 01:53:14,902
Hook some more Cannon fodder.
1320
01:53:16,415 --> 01:53:18,747
Ever hear of the hatfields
and the mccoys, son?
1321
01:53:18,834 --> 01:53:20,620
Yeah, of course I have.
1322
01:53:20,711 --> 01:53:22,997
This matewan is their stomping grounds.
1323
01:53:23,088 --> 01:53:26,751
They'll put a bullet in your brain
as soon as look at you.
1324
01:53:31,930 --> 01:53:33,886
Sid, we got authorization
1325
01:53:33,974 --> 01:53:36,886
to put these miners
off company property here in town.
1326
01:53:36,977 --> 01:53:38,592
Not from me, you don't.
1327
01:53:38,687 --> 01:53:42,805
And we also got a warrant for your arrest,
you give us any trouble.
1328
01:53:48,155 --> 01:53:50,612
This ain't worth shit, and you know it.
1329
01:53:52,826 --> 01:53:53,861
One way or another,
1330
01:53:53,952 --> 01:53:56,819
we're going to carry out these evictions
tomorrow morning.
1331
01:53:58,665 --> 01:53:59,780
Gentlemen.
1332
01:54:15,974 --> 01:54:17,510
They come to kill me.
1333
01:54:30,655 --> 01:54:32,566
Hillard was my friend.
1334
01:54:34,826 --> 01:54:38,410
When I first come down to the mines,
it was Hillard shown me what to do.
1335
01:54:39,373 --> 01:54:42,740
He was a good coal miner,
a good union man...
1336
01:54:43,752 --> 01:54:45,743
And he always took care of his mama.
1337
01:54:49,132 --> 01:54:51,714
I don't know how they could have
done him like they did.
1338
01:54:55,222 --> 01:54:58,055
All he wanted to do was live decent,
that's all.
1339
01:55:00,519 --> 01:55:04,933
Sometimes people say how god willed it,
how everything is his plan.
1340
01:55:07,734 --> 01:55:08,734
Well...
1341
01:55:09,820 --> 01:55:13,779
I don't think he planned on Hillard
laying here amongst all these elkinses.
1342
01:55:13,865 --> 01:55:15,526
Not this young in his life.
1343
01:55:17,452 --> 01:55:21,240
I think all god plans is we get born,
and we got to take it from there.
1344
01:55:22,999 --> 01:55:24,955
So you rest in peace, Hillard.
1345
01:55:26,545 --> 01:55:29,582
You rest easy 'cause we're going
to take up where you left off.
1346
01:55:34,302 --> 01:55:35,417
Amen.
1347
01:55:42,936 --> 01:55:45,803
You going to tell us
to turn the other cheek, Joe?
1348
01:55:48,400 --> 01:55:50,186
Shooting is what they want now.
1349
01:55:51,736 --> 01:55:53,601
And maybe it's what we want too.
1350
01:55:57,325 --> 01:55:59,316
You expect too much of people, Joe.
1351
01:56:01,663 --> 01:56:05,372
You're still after that one big union,
but most of us...
1352
01:56:06,501 --> 01:56:08,412
We can't see past this holler.
1353
01:56:09,087 --> 01:56:15,299
J deliver us from the gathering storm j
1354
01:56:15,719 --> 01:56:21,339

I need to talk to the men.
1363
01:57:07,062 --> 01:57:08,927
It wouldn't be decent now.
1364
01:57:13,276 --> 01:57:15,232
I'll call a meeting in the morning...
1365
01:57:17,280 --> 01:57:18,440
First thing.
1366
01:57:23,078 --> 01:57:29,199

j unworthy though we are j
1370
01:58:06,538 --> 01:58:08,779
Pass the word to stay out
from town tomorrow.
1371
01:58:11,001 --> 01:58:12,081
Something up?
1372
01:58:15,630 --> 01:58:16,790
Got a feeling.
1373
01:58:17,841 --> 01:58:20,583
You know how white folks is
when they gets all excited.
1374
01:58:31,021 --> 01:58:32,352
How is she?
1375
01:58:33,064 --> 01:58:35,100
How would you be?
1376
01:58:38,820 --> 01:58:40,902
The company men came today.
1377
01:58:42,240 --> 01:58:44,447
Armed to the teeth.
1378
01:58:46,119 --> 01:58:47,984
God have mercy on us.
1379
01:59:21,112 --> 01:59:23,478
Nothing's going to bring Hillard back,
you know.
1380
01:59:26,201 --> 01:59:28,157
Danny, I came here to help.
1381
01:59:29,579 --> 01:59:30,910
Sure you did.
1382
01:59:32,582 --> 01:59:35,039
First people come here to help us
with some money.
1383
01:59:36,586 --> 01:59:38,577
Next we know, we got no land.
1384
01:59:39,673 --> 01:59:42,915
Then they say they're going to help us
with a job and a place to live,
1385
01:59:43,009 --> 01:59:45,546
and they stick us in some damn coal camp
1386
01:59:46,262 --> 01:59:48,423
and let us dig out their mines.
1387
01:59:49,724 --> 01:59:54,343
Now you come here to help us
bring in the new day.
1388
01:59:55,438 --> 01:59:57,770
Well, Hillard ain't going to see
no new day.
1389
01:59:59,693 --> 02:00:02,275
We had about as much help as we can stand.
1390
02:00:03,405 --> 02:00:05,111
We got to take care of ourselves.
1391
02:00:08,368 --> 02:00:10,529
We got to take care of each other.
1392
02:01:49,552 --> 02:01:53,044
Joe. Joe. The men go to town.
1393
02:02:05,193 --> 02:02:06,193
Sid?
1394
02:02:09,113 --> 02:02:11,525
No need for you to be in on this.
1395
02:02:12,617 --> 02:02:16,405
It's my town too. They're my people.
1396
02:03:25,356 --> 02:03:28,314
You all have no right to come
to this here town with all these people
1397
02:03:28,401 --> 02:03:30,562
and drawing guns and terrorizing them.
1398
02:03:30,653 --> 02:03:32,985
The writs you have are not valid
for this town.
1399
02:03:33,072 --> 02:03:34,608
- You can't get away with this.
- No!
1400
02:03:34,699 --> 02:03:36,189
No. Oh!
1401
02:05:18,344 --> 02:05:19,584
Aah!
1402
02:05:20,388 --> 02:05:21,594
Jesus, don't shoot me!
1403
02:06:36,881 --> 02:06:38,872
I just wanted to talk.
1404
02:06:42,720 --> 02:06:44,711
I just wanted to talk.
1405
02:06:52,021 --> 02:06:54,137
I can't feel my legs.
1406
02:07:04,158 --> 02:07:05,158
Sephus!
1407
02:08:06,804 --> 02:08:08,260
7here was a trial,
1408
02:08:08,347 --> 02:08:13,216
but there wasn't nobody going fo pass
guilty on sid Hatfield in mingo county.
1409
02:08:13,769 --> 02:08:16,602
Sid got married
to mayor testerman's widow,
1410
02:08:16,689 --> 02:08:19,476
and then the baldwins,
they caught him unarmed
1411
02:08:19,567 --> 02:08:22,650
walking up the steps
of the mcdowell county courthouse.
1412
02:08:22,737 --> 02:08:27,106
They shot 15 bullets info him,
right in broad daylight.
1413
02:08:27,200 --> 02:08:31,409
Then c.E. Lively stepped in
and put one right through his skull.
1414
02:08:31,495 --> 02:08:33,736
Wasn't even a trial on that one.
1415
02:08:34,498 --> 02:08:37,410
That were the start
of the great coalfield war,
1416
02:08:37,501 --> 02:08:41,119
and us miners took the worst of it,
like Joe said we would.
1417
02:08:41,214 --> 02:08:45,958
"It's just one big union the whole world
over," Joe kenehan used fo say.
1418
02:08:46,052 --> 02:08:49,761
And from the aay of the matewan massacre,
that's what I preached.
1419
02:08:49,847 --> 02:08:51,462
That was my religion.
1420
02:08:53,351 --> 02:08:56,468
We buried Joe kenehan with our own.
1421
02:08:56,896 --> 02:08:59,638
My mama,
she thought he wouldn't never stay,
1422
02:09:00,191 --> 02:09:02,933
but now he's with us for always,
1423
02:09:03,486 --> 02:09:06,649
laying up here
in these West Virginia hills.
