All language subtitles for The.Guardsmen.2024.1080p.WEBRip.x264.AAC-[YTS.MX]

Let me get this straight, if I may.

You want us to ride into Indian
territory to help you track down some

outlaw desperado?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news,
miss, but we don't track down no native.

No, ma 'am.

You're the guardsman, are you not?

I was told this was your job.

And he's a native.

He's a white man.

A white man.

How do you know that?

They call him by the name West, and he
writes like you.

West, you say?

As in Richard West?

How much?

We have corn.

You Indians.

No one can afford to move cattle on
corn.

How much per bushel?

Fifty cents.

You can get corn here in town for forty.

I wonder if you Indians are a bunch of
starving human beings.

Fine. Forty cents it is.

What about horses?

Twenty dollars.

With a good saddle, too.

With a good saddle.

Sounds fair.

Anything else?

Molasses.

Fifteen cents a gallon.

All right.

Can you tell us where we can find this
Mr.

West?

I'm your older brother. I can do what I
want.

Don't end the game on my behalf.

Say, what's the name of this game
anyhow?

Cowboys and Indians.

Hmm. Which one of you is playing the
cowboy?

That must make you the Indian, huh?

Mind if I play?

Who do you want to be in the game?

How about I play the outlaw? What do you
think about that?

Well, there's no such thing as an
outlaw, mister.

There is now.

Boy, boots off.

I know you've been playing in that
prairie all day, and I just swept these

floors clean.

Hey, you heard your mother.

Boys.

Eat it, folks.

Who the hell are you?

My name is West, Richard West.

Little dick.

Richard will suffice.

What do you want?

And get your hands off my children.

Did you ever hear of a gang we insist?

Yeah.

You get your hand caught between the
rear side and the hammer of your pistol,

and I assure you, you will.

Gassy looking thing.

Makes you self -conscious about what to
do with your hands.

All right, all right, all right.

You can have whatever you want.

Just don't hurt the boys.

We'll get to all that.

But first, that delicious aroma.

Do tell, what's for supper?

He was born in Texas around 1850.

Didn't work cattle down Housell Ranch
for a few years after that.

Bill Doolin's place.

That's the one.

Word is, Doolin needed an extra gun for
a bank robbery down in Southwest City.

Richard took the bait and bled his way
into the gang.

Hold on a minute.

What do you mean when you say he bled
his way in?

Well, it was a gunfight up.

Wes took a bullet for Doolin and...

He took him under his wing after that.

And Wes is in business now.

Mostly cattle rustling.

Knocks off his stagecoach every now and
then.

Wes is a slippery fella.

Last I heard, he was laying low in
Guthrie.

And he used to mess with the natives for
the most part.

You don't do much discriminating
nowadays.

It'll burn in some of you.

That's easier said than done.

But I bid you gentlemen the very best.

Here.

What's this for?

Your time.

Much appreciated, old friend.

I

say

we take the job.

He's one man.

He's one very dangerous man.

Not different than the dozen before him.

I wasn't joking.

How about some of you?

There's a difference between a train
robber and a cattle rustler.

Such as?

A train robber takes what he wants and
moves on.

A cattle rustler keeps taking.

Over and over.

Which means he takes risks.

Lots of them.

The grand herds were tough to hunt.

The bison are fast.

No cover to hide.

It wasn't until the acquisition of
Horses by our grandfather that we were

to outrun the Buffalo.

You ride fast enough, you can outrun
anything.

But it all stops.

Eventually. Well, I think it's safe to
say either way, we're both with you on

this, Heck.

Give me the night.

I'll talk to you boys in the morning.

Figure it out.

Mr. Thomas.

Please, call me Heck.

Mr. Thomas is my father's name.

It's a long ride from town.

Yeah, I don't mind.

I enjoy the silence.

Do you need a place for the night?

No, I came to talk to you, actually.

I wanted to ask you a question.

I had a daughter a long time ago.

She caught the fever, lost her lung, and
lost the rest.

I sit there and watch her fight for her
life, my little girl.

And as a father, I sit there so
helpless.

Might as well as kill me along with her
because I haven't been the same since

she left this earth.

Now that you know that, I have one
question for you.

This West fella, you ever lay a hand on
a child?

I need to know.

So you kill her children?

Do you know the difference between my
people and yours?

Cowboys believe this land was given to
them by their parents.

My people believe we borrow it from our
children.

I'll take that as a yes.

Not hungry?

Oh, I can see why you married him.

A strong, silent type.

Jay, why don't you kill them running in
the other room?

While the adults have a little after
dinner conversation.

Well, if you can be excused. Stay with a
nice distance.

You hear me?

Stay with a nice distance.

Why don't you just take what you want
and be on your way?

I said, sit.

Whose idea was it that we should all be
in a hurry?

Work faster.

Race from here to there.

Was it you?

Was it you?

Keep that pistol off my wife.

Nothing good ever comes out of hurry and
frustration.

Only misery.

Why are you here?

What?

What?

Yes.

You've heard of it, I'm sure.

I got business there, which requires my
attention.

Why don't you just go?

Heck, Thomas.

Lawman.

Dauntless.

Caught a man who could track down a
bumblebee if he was asked to.

The guardsman.

So you have heard of these men?

Everyone's heard of the guardsman.

The stories.

Oh, I love a good story.

Tell me.

Tell me a story.

No?

I don't know any stories. Please.

All right. Here's what you're going to
do.

You're going to ride the lot.

And you're going to tell those
guardsmen.

that Richard West rise north to
Missouri, and that he could find me

Send those men on the wild goose hunt,
all the while assuring my safe passes

that a lot in their absence.

Divert from any part of this plan, and
your family dies.

And if any part of this plan sounds
unclear, well, I'll be happy to clean

your ears for you.

We'll do it. We'll do what you asked.

More whiskey, if you please.

I said more whiskey, if you please.

Why are you still here?

What are you looking at?

Get on.

I need more beans, too.

Better do it. We better hand them last
time.

That

long

of a night?

Soft mattress, huh?

I can sleep.

We're taking the job, Richard West.

Wait, hold on. What... What happened?

Nothing happened.

I spoke to the girl.

We're riding out today. Pack your tag.

Wait, wait, wait. We can't go riding out
today.

Why not?

E .D. Nix is riding on down to town to
chat with us.

So?

So.

He must have forgotten who we work for.

E .D. Nix ain't gonna be happy if he
shows up and you ain't here.

He will be when you tell him where I'm
headed.

You're serious.

I ain't got time to argue this with you.

We never ride alone.

That's right.

Because that ain't how this works.

We work together as a team.

We take a job as a unit.

What do you have me do then?

Sit and debate this with you until Nick
shows up?

All the Wild West is out there killing
men, women, and children.

So?

This is all about you, isn't it?

This is about bringing law and order to
the territory, plain and simple.

We split up before.

Oh, really?

Can't refresh our memories.

Coffeyville.

Coffeyville.

The Dalton gang was robbing two banks at
the same time.

That was different, Hank.

Dynamite, Dan Clifton.

Y 'all remember him?

Yes. The one that got away.

$3 ,500 bounty on his head.

Chase him all the way down to Angolis.

Shoot off three of his fingers and the
son of a bitch still gets away.

The most killed outlaw in America.

Now these boys are going around cutting
the wrong fingers off dead corpses.

Just so we think Clifton's gone, but we
all know he ain't.

You know who can lead us to him, though?

Richard West.

We find West, we find Clifton.

Two birds, one stone.

That would be very nice.

But I think that you'll reach him.

That's the truth.

And next?

Tell him exactly what I told you.

Tell him when I find West, we can stop
counting the fingers on all these

corpses.

All right, but after E .D. Nix leaves,
we're going to hit the trail and meet up

with you. And from there, we ride
together.

Children. In school.

School?

Yes. You did attend school once.

Most days.

Why don't you make me something to eat?

Why don't you make it yourself?

I wasn't asking, sweetheart.

Oh, well, neither was I.

All right.

You know what's going to happen if you
don't go in there and make me breakfast?

First, I'm going to kill your husband
when he returns.

Second, I'm going to... Kill those boys
after school, and I'll make you watch

while I do it, too.

Third, I'll put a bullet between your
eyes so that Dad can't offer you an open

casket at your funeral.

Now, I know you're thinking to yourself,
he won't do all that. He just aims to

scare me is all, but you'd be wrong.

I will do it, and I have. And if you
don't go in there and cook me up some

biscuits and pour some of that smooth
gravy on top, I'll gladly do it again.

What's this about?

Well, I hate to say it, but it's about
heck.

What about it?

I'm just concerned is all.

I've known him quite a bit longer than
you have, and something ain't right.

Never known him to make such a hasty
decision.

You think he's sweet on the native?

Maybe.

I don't know.

So, what are you going to do?

I say we go ahead and meet with Nick,
see what he has to say.

Then we'll catch up with Heck, that's
planned.

Just help me keep an eye on him, all
right?

Wait.

You're really concerned about all this?

Yeah.

You're too young to retire and I'm too
old to have nothing to do, so yes, I am

concerned.

At any rate, Nix will be here shortly,
so...

I'll see you there, all right?

Mr. Heck Thomas.

Old friend. How's business?

Lonesome, but I can't complain.

Most folks keep bankers at a distance.

They should be happier not getting the
government they pay for.

That's right.

What brings you to town?

Taking a little trip. Need some money.

Business or pleasure? Got to do a little
fishing, maybe?

Not this time, brother.

Looking for someone.

Anybody I know?

Probably not.

Richard West, you heard of him?

Can't say that I have.

How much do you need?

Fifty will do.

Fifty it is.

Just give me a quick moment.

You're the right to come.

Don't turn around.

But that's Canada.

Right here, you take out that pistol and
put it on the counter.

Go on, do it.

You want to do this, partner?

I wouldn't be here if I didn't want to
do this.

Now you turn around.

Now you get behind that counter and fill
up a bag.

We both know I ain't going to do that.

Why the hell not?

This is why the hell not.

I'm going to reach for my pistol on that
counter and I'm going to arrest you.

Or, you can shoot me and send us to
Hangport.

Choose fast.

Now you've got a hole in your gut.

Pistol!

Well, what do we do now?

Send for the sheriff.

Tell him this was no charge.

What do you mean he left?

He stays in Richard West.

Apparently he's been causing a lot of
trouble for folks up near Guthrie.

And he left the two of you here.

Pour me a drink.

All right.

The West is changing.

Government's growing.

Power's shifting.

This way of doing things are becoming
obsolete.

Better get used to using these.

With all due respect, D .D., my daddy
taught me you don't sell your mule to

a plow.

You may see it that way, but the
American people, they're tired of the

West.

Gunslingers, thieves.

The guardsmen will get a few of the bad
guys here and there.

But that's not about how fast you run or
how high you climb, but how well you

bounce.

Men from the North migrating via the
Santa Fe Railroad.

Soon.

Soon the West is going to become rich
people's playground.

I'm sorry, D. I'm not sure what you're
saying.

I'm saying the day is soon approaching
when you guardsmen...

will no longer be needed by the people
you protect.

And when that day comes, there will be
no generous titles of land or

You'll be like me.

Old and along, clenching tight to over a
lifetime of spilling blood.

What, that's all?

That's it.

I trust you'll relay a message to Heck
if he returns.

Yes.

I hear little Dick West is a very
dangerous man.

And all about that, he left you two
behind.

Good day, gentlemen.

Hello. And who might you be?

Name's Rusty.

Rusty Williams.

Do we know you?

No, sir.

What's your business here? How may we
help you?

I understand you're looking for Richard
West.

He has my wife and children held captive
inside of my home.

They sent me here to tell you that he's
headed to Missouri.

That's a lie.

Why would he send you here to lie?

A diversion.

So that you track him in the opposite
direction of where he's actually headed.

Which is where?

To here.

To Lawton.

Dan Clifton.

Heck was right.

Son of a bitch.

Please, you have to help me. Mister, why
would you tell us all this? Why would

you jeopardize your family's lives?

Because if you don't help me, I believe
he will kill them.

You're the guardsman, right?

Come back here, you arrest him.

That's what you do?

No, we don't arrest people.

What we do is kill known criminals.

Richard West is a criminal.

Please, you have to help me.

What can I do?

You can ride back home and tell West
we're headed for Missouri.

And then you're going to tell us what we
can find him.

So what's in Latin?

Business.

What kind of business?

My business.

The truth be told, the life of an outlaw

is the lonely one the best.

Is that supposed to make me feel sorry
for you?

No.

But life on the frontier is a lot more
raw than you got it back here, I can

you that.

You know, people coming and going and
the natives clinging to their land with

all they have. It's violent and angry.

There's no laws out west.

Only this homespun agreement.

Code, if you want to call it that.

And those gentlemen's agreements are the
only way us outlaws can survive.

Agreements.

Sure.

Never inquire into a person's past.

Take the measure of the man that he is
today.

Look after your own.

Defend yourself whenever necessary.

And never order anything less than
whiskey.

Well, if these statutes are so difficult
to live with, then why keep them?

Some of us were just born to be bad.

Fellas like me don't survive on giving
others a fair chance.

Where the hell do you think you're
going?

To check on my children.

And if you want to shoot me, you'll have
to shoot me in the back.

Or there's some unwritten rule about
that sort of thing as well.

Could use that.

So you think we're close?

Yeah, I imagine, Hex. Only about a half
day's ride ahead of us.

I think we'll wake up early, ride our
horses hard. We'll catch them before

tomorrow.

I've got a game of cards.

No, not tonight.

I'm starting.

Think we can spring a trap?

Sure.

Gather up some of these sticks over here
and use that small spool of rope in

there. See if you can funnel something
in.

While you're gone, I'll fetch some wood
and start a campfire.

Yeah.

Chris, you might have asked me
something.

After all these years working alongside
one another,

Sometimes I feel like I hardly even know
you.

That's enough.

Let's just say you weren't a United
States deputy.

What do you think you'd be?

You'll make jokes.

Mr. Madsen, I am insulted you think so
little of me.

Truth is, I've always been fond of the
pictures.

Stage plays.

Really?

Poetry, too.

Catch myself reciting poems sometimes
when we write.

Poetry, you say?

See? Now, I wasn't poking fun at you. I
think poetry is a fine hobby.

Hell, well, I can make a living at it. I
put my mind to it.

A living, you say?

Do you mind sharing some of it with me
right now?

I think

when I die, I wish I lived a little
longer.

Loved a little harder.

For we were invincible once.

When we were young.

But now we're...

It's on my shoulder.

You ever read the newspapers?

Fine medium print.

I see it as a future.

Maybe I'll use it to shake politics
someday.

Politics?

Yeah.

How's this sound?

Oklahoma State Senator Heck Thomas.

It's got a pretty nice ring to it.

I could be his campaign manager.

I think with your support, he could get
the votes.

Now we just got to convince him of it.

Yeah.

You notice how close we were to getting
shot?

Wind a little tight there, huh?

No better to sneak up on me like that.

I didn't think we were sneaking.

Oh, no?

What the hell are y 'all doing out here
anyway?

Nick's came down.

Says this way doing lawmen business is
ended.

He's been saying that for years.

There's another thing.

You were right about Dynamite Dan and
Wes meeting up.

They're trying to make their way into
Lawton.

With a bounty on his head?

Well, he got a plan for that.

He's smart, just like Lou Jinks said.

How do y 'all know this?

A man came to see us.

Says Wes had his family hostage up in
Guthrie.

Sent him down to deliver a message so
we'd go after Wes up in Missouri.

Only problem is, Wes and Dan had been in
Lawton before we even saw the banks of

the White River.

See?

Smart.

All right.

We ride to Guthrie and take him out.

And the family?

Make sure no one else in the house gets
killed, and we do what we do best.

Sounded like a plan.

Why'd you stop?

Should I get heck?

I'll let him stay with the horses right
now.

Well?

Jim Cummings.

Jim Cummings?

Yeah, he used to ride with Bill
Quantrill, of all people.

Yeah, I know.

I know who he is.

What are you thinking?

According to this map, this is Cummings'
land.

What are you saying?

I believe the expression is two birds,
one stone.

Cummings is a good caller.

Yeah, he's worth a thousand dollars
dead.

We should stay on the trail.

West is the bigger picture right now.

Sure, but if we take out Cummings,
that'll buy us a hell of a lot of good

with Nix right now.

Where do we find him?

Hell yeah it is. I'm definitely positive
about that.

Think he's dead?

He is now.

Thanks.

You always get to kill the good ones.

I'm just faster is all.

What do you call that one?

Can't remember the name.

The Valley of the Daisy Shadows.

How do you know that?

I used to have children once.

That was their favorite song.

It was named after a book.

Whenever I was in town, I'd read it to
them whenever they was going to bed.

Sometimes we used to play a game where
I'd pick a random sentence out of it and

see if they could finish the rest.

What's that like, you know, children,
family?

It's also a curse.

You know, I always thought you'd make a
good father, Chris.

You ought to try it out sometime,
whenever you're done with all this.

You think Nick's was right about us?

Think we have a job soon?

No.

Seems to be an endless supply of people
coming out of the East.

He seemed pretty confident.

Yeah, I did.

It's like riding into your first bounty,
having a family.

Just go in, guns blazing.

Family helps you find peace and clarity
from that torture of sitting on the

fence too long.

Unfortunately, we live in a world where
the unspoken message is we should want

to have children, have them, and that's
the end of it.

But what happens when you have to bury
one?

No one talks about that. Maybe they
shouldn't.

Maybe they shouldn't have to.

Desire and decision, gentlemen, are not
the same.

It's the goal to find our truth in each
of them.

Desire and decision.

Say heck if you don't mind me asking.

What happened?

Living life comes with a price.

You look around at the people you love
and you think, oh, they'll be next to me

forever until they're not.

My wife was first.

Blood clot traveled up her arm into her
heart. She went fast.

All of a sudden, she just stopped being
alive. But my daughter...

My daughter fought it with everything
she had.

Clawed at it.

Some sort of desperation.

I don't know where she got it from
because it wasn't me.

Stared at that black curtain like she
did.

Hell.

She laughed in the face of it all the
way to the end.

I believe you are who you are because

You look towards peace.

I am who I am because something happens
to you when someone dies.

You only cry for the loss of them.

All the ones you lost before that and
the ones they lost as well.

Someone has to make it right.

What are we?

Making it right.

As right as we possibly can.

I'd swear you were new at this.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means your pacing is driving me
insane.

Where the hell is this husband of yours?

How should I know? I'm stuck here with
you.

It's been too long.

I think he's got cute with the
guardsmen.

Maybe brave.

Maybe both.

Or maybe he's dead.

You know how dangerous that trail can
be.

What took you so long?

It's done.

They rode north.

It's all with my own two eyes.

Missouri?

Sir, just like you asked.

Okay, we did what you asked. Now,
please.

You have my word.

You'll be safe all the way to Lawton.

She comes with me.

What?

You heard me. I need to be sure you're
telling me the truth.

Well, the outlaw has morals now.

If I make it to Lawton in one piece,
I'll send word for you to come get her.

Absolutely not. I wasn't asking.

Where'd you laugh?

If you say the word, it'll be your last.

You're coming with me.

I said show yourself and this lady gets
it. Not a good idea, Dick.

Guardsman!

Everybody put that pistol down and let
us take you in.

Us?

Blackface! What you gonna be?

I didn't do nothing.

They must have followed me here.

You didn't tell those old men I was
hiding out here?

I swear it.

Don't lie to me.

I swear it.

Think about it. Why would I risk you
hurting me or my family?

Get comfortable.

No one leaves this house.

Find me and get vapor.

Find me ink and paper. Why?

Because you're going to write down every
word I say or I'm going to kill the

both of you.

Right now.

What did you tell them all, man?

I told them to be careful what you told
me today.

You lied, didn't you?

They followed you here. You told them.

Huh?

All right, get ready.

So I take it Wes is going to go down in
a blaze of glory.

He's alone.

He's got the wife and husband at
gunpoint.

So no shots until we got him clear,
yeah?

Only need 10 seconds to get a shot.

Thought you said he had children.

That's what that fella told us back in
town, yeah.

He should be in school.

Hope so.

Last thing we need is a couple kids
right on the front porch right in the

of the gunfight.

All right, just so we're clear.

We're shooting to kill, right?

Of course, no question about it.

He's checking us off.

We'll see how he reacts.

Once you draw him out front, we'll flank
the building. Chris, that's when you

get off your first shot.

After that, Bill, you're second, good?

Yeah, I'm good.

Gentlemen, steady.

And can assure you that by coming here,
you have placed this

family in grave...

Sorry,

grave, grave danger.

execute a family member for every hour
you refuse to do as I say.

What say you guardsmen?

No answer.

What do you mean no answer?

I mean they didn't respond.

You got a due to us now?

Like I said, fellas like me don't
survive on giving others their chance.

You first.

Richard West!

You have ten seconds to come out with
your hands up!

Or by the authority granted to us by the
Oklahoma Circuit Court Judge E .D. Nix,

we will force entry into the house,
killing you in the process.

Your ten seconds starts now.

Get up.

Get up.

Get over here.

Open the door.

Get up.

Get up.

Guardsmen.

You should have said it, Lord.

We all know how this is, West.

No one but you has to die.

No way I see it. This one bites the dust
first.

Not a chance.

One of my deputies will put a bullet in
your head before you even get a shot

off.

So what's it gonna be?

An honorable death or an outlaw's.

You had no grounds.

I got a whole list of folks. Says you've
been stealing from them for a good part

of a year.

Cattle, coin, white folks and Indians
alike.

I've got it.

You hear that, Wes? He's got a shot.

Looks like your time's up, Richard.

Hey.

Hold on a second.

Chris. What?

Keep your gun on him.

What if E .D. E. Nix was right about us?

What about us?

What if this knew Wes?

Maybe there's a better way of doing all
the things that we do.

A better way?

Yeah.

Nix gave us these before he departed.

Maybe this is the way you move with the
world and all the times around it.

You said for yourself, desire and
decision are not the same.

I agree with you on that.

I mean, at the end of the day, heck,
what's the truth about all this work

paid to do?

paid the same either way.

What are we doing?

Taking him back to Lawton. He'll stand
trial for his crimes.

You folks alright?

Yeah.

Yeah, we're fine.

Thank you, Mr. Thomas.

Call me Heck.

Sorry for the trouble.

No trouble at all.

Say, what are you going to do with him
when you go back to Lawton?

It's up to a judge.

I heard that guardsmen were their own,
Judge.

Things change.

All right, Chris.

Come on, Wes, get up.

Hey.

Afternoon.

What are you doing here?

I came by to tell you that it's done.

The people of this town don't need to
worry about Richard West any longer.

Is he dead?

No.

Trying this new way of law and order
these days.

He's behind bars.

But for how long?

As long as he needs to be.

Yeah, my word on that.

I can arrange delivery of the payment we
discussed.

Keep it.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Good day.

Something wrong?

You once told me that your people
believe that we're just borrowing the

from our children.

Where does that leave people like me?

Not everybody in here is the same Earth.

Best not to force myself where I don't
belong.

I don't have much money to just make,
but... Uh -huh.

Something looks like he could use a
drink.

Deal you in on the next hand?

Not this time, partner.

I think I'm going to take myself a ride.

Where do you think you're going to ride
off to?

Nowhere in particular.

This is a nice, long ride.

You all company?

After all, we all are the guardsmen.

We don't ride alone.

Thought that way of the world was
changing, boys.

Well, that might be, but some things
never change, old friend.

Three of a kind.

And that's something. Three of a kind.

Well, load them up, boys.
