It'’s strange to see
Pietro Forragano'’s blinds drawn.

Yes. It'’s midnight.

I'’ve never known Pietro
to open late.

I'’m gonna get you,
I swear.

Shut up!
Come on. Hurry it up.

I swear
I'’ll get you both.

You do that, old man.
[ grunts ]Aah!

[ grunting ]

[ gunshot ]

[ whistle tooting ]

The one with the satchel.

Come on. let'’s go. [ whistle continues tooting ]

♪ [ trumpet ]

Howdy, folks.
I'’m the Old Ranger.

From its early Gold Rush days,

San Francisco has always been
a city of excitement
and adventure.

A city where men
risked and dared.

A city, above all,
with a heart.

Nowhere but in San Francisco
could this story
have taken place.

I call it...

[ sighs ]

[ inhales sharply, groans ]

Please, Clorinda,
take it easy.

I got to one of them.

Right through here!

Shh! Hold still, Pietro. [ door opens ]

Did you get him?

No, no, no.
How is he?

Never mind me.
Did you get-a the money?

Huh? Maybe he
drop somewhere.

No, he got away
in the crowd.[ sighs ]

He took everything.

All my life savings.

Ten years are gone. Gone.

How much did they get?

[ sighs ]
How much...

Eight, nine thousand dollars.

All the money I got.
All of it.

Why did you keep so much money
here in the office?

Why didn'’t you keep it
in the bank?

[ chuckles ]
Clorinda,

your papa and mama
is Italian, huh?

Did they keep their money
in a bank?

Well, no, but--Do they keep-- You keep
the money in a bank, Amadeo?

Yes.You do?

Oh.
[ laughs ]

In Italian bank. In Italy.
[ laughs ]

[ chuckling ]
No, no, no.

The Crowder Bank,
right here in San Francisco.

All right.

Maybe bank is all right
for Amadeo.

He'’s americano.

He'’s a-born right here
in California.

But is not a-good
for an immigrant!

Too fancy.
All the marble.

Gold in the ceilings,
fancy people.

Aha! And nobody
speak Italian!

How can an Italian
workman in overalls
go to the bank, huh?

No, no. He'’s ashamed.

That'’s what.

[ panting ]

That'’s my little bank.

The bank of the little man.

But when they rob and steal,

the little man is a bust.

But you still got
your business, Pietro.

Business, business.

How do I buy, huh,
fruits and a-vegetables
with no money, huh?

[ chuckles ]
No, no, no.

Pietro is no more in business.

The banks--
But the banks--It'’s finished.

Won'’t they lend you
the money?

I just a-told you.

These-a banks is no good
for a fella like-a me.

I'’m afraid he's right.

But Guido Lombardi
borrowed from the bank--

Guido Lombardi is a rich man.

Rich men are always welcome
at the banks.

That'’s right.
Amadeo understands.

He was in a fruit-a business
one time too.

Pietro, there is one bank

that will lend you
the money you need.

The Bank of Italy,
right here in San Francisco.

Where the immigrant
will receive

the same respect
as the Native American,

and the little man will receive

the same courtesy
as the rich man.

Oh, no.
Amadeo, what do you mean?

I don'’t understand.
Bank of Italy.
What do you mean?

Pietro, I'’m gonna
raise the money
and open a bank.

A bank without marble
or gold ceilings.

A bank for the little man.

Where all a man needs
to borrow money

is to have a straight eye
and calluses on his hands.

Pietro Farragano,

you are the first customer
of the Bank of Italy.

What could be
a better investment,
Mr. Lombardi?

Bank of Italy.
Think of it.

A bank right here
in San Francisco,

owned and financed
by Italian-Americans.

You believe me,
it'’s a bank for men like you.

No marble or gold ceilings.

A safe place
to keep your money.

And that'’s what
I'’m trying to tell you,
Mr. Carlotti.

A bank for the little fella.

And shares for only
$100 apiece.

$150,000, Mr. Crowder.

The assets
of the Bank of Italy.

Now, since as yet,
uh, my bank does not have
a vault of its own,

I'’ve chosen the Crowder Bank
in which to deposit our funds.

Now, uh, may I have
a receipt, please?

Mr. Giannini,

banking isn'’t a game,
it'’s a profession.

No more.
It'’s a way of life.

My father
and his father before him
were bankers.

You are a produce man.
Or were.

A dealer in fruits
and vegetables.

Well, I'’ll admit I once was
a produce man, Mr. Crowder,

but right now I'’m the head
of the Bank of Italy,
which opens tomorrow.

You really think
all you need to open a bank
is a few thousand dollars?

[ chuckling ]
You need--

Well, there are
a lot more things

that I need, Mr. Crowder,
but right now,

what I need the most
is a vault in which
to keep our funds.

Now, uh, may I please
have a receipt?

Very well, Mr. Giannini.

Here you are.
450, 470,

490, $500.

Here, Bartolomo.

And thanks for coming
to the Bank of Italy
for your loan.

Thank you, Mr. Giannini.

[ sniffs ]
Thank you very much.

Well, that'’s what
we'’re here for.
To serve you.

Oh, Bartolomo? Siì,Mr. Giannini?

Mr. Giannini was my father.Oh.

My name is A.P.

All right, Mr. A.P.

Uh, no "mister." A.P.

Oh. Good-bye, A.P.

[ chuckles ]

He lend me the money,

he shake my hands,

he give me the great big cigar,

and then he say,
"Call me A.P."

[ laughter ]Ah. Yeah.

What kind of
crazy banker is this

who would loan money
to Bartolomo?

What kind of security
you give?

Eh. My hands.

A.P., he say,
"The best-a security
a bank can get

"is your hands--

your hands and your work."

I need a new pushcart.

You think he--Ah, sure.

Go see A.P. Eh?
[ chuckles ]

[ laughter ]

Well, Salvatore,

we made loans
of $4,874.67 today.

That brings our total

to $128,962.81.

We should have
$21,137.09 left.

Unless someone
made a deposit today.

Eh, your mother,
your wife,

and a few good friends.

Salvatore,
tonight we get depositors.

[ no audible dialogue ]

Another depositor.
Tovio Franco, $500.

Interest starting
December 5, 1904.

At, uh,
approximately 4:00 a.m.

[ no audible dialogue ]

Well, Mr. Crowder,
Mr. Smith, Mr. Grey,

the leading bankers
of San Francisco.

I am indeed flattered.

Isadore, uh, take this
to the chief teller,

and they'’ll make out
your papers.

Thank you.Oh, wait a minute.

Thank you, A.P.

Now, gentlemen, uh,
what can I do for you?

Giannini, let'’s go
into your office.

Well, this is my office.

I like to sit
where I can greet the people
coming and going.

Giannini, as bankers,
we are here to protest
your unethical conduct.

Unethical?
What do you mean?

The way you conduct your bank
and yourself.

You'’re a disgrace
to the banking profession.

Soliciting accounts,
like a-- a peddler.

This isn'’t a produce building
conducted on the wharves
at night!

I conduct my business honestly.

Honestly? You call that sign
in your window honest?

"Our vault is the biggest
and safest in San Francisco."

Why, you don'’t
even have a vault.

Your funds are on deposit
with the Crowder vaults!

Yes, and the Crowder vaults
are the biggest and safest
in San Francisco.

Who ever heard of a bank
without a vault?

The depositors
of the Bank of Italy.

We save money
by not buying a vault.

And look at your customers.

Riffraff.

You lend them money
without collateral,
without security of any kind.

You'’re destroying
the public'’s confidence
in the banks of San Francisco.

Mr. Crowder,

that riffraff
is San Francisco.

Those people built this city
with their own hands.

You gentlemen won'’t even
give them a loan.

But I'’ve opened a bank
for them.

And when I make a loan,
I'’ve got the greatest
security in the world--

the people of the city
of San Francisco.

Good day, gentlemen.

Giannini, your funds
are no longer welcome

in the Crowder vaults.

Or the bank I represent.

Gentlemen, I--

You'’d better have that sign
out of your window by tomorrow.

Tomorrow? I--

Because by that time,
your funds will no longer
be in my vaults.

They'’ll be here
in this firetrap.

Let'’s see how long
your bank stays open

when your depositors
learn that!

I am giving you 24 hours.

Mr. Crowder, I can'’t move
a third of a million dollars
in a--

By noon tomorrow,

April the 18th,
and not one minute later.

Good day, Giannini.

PIETRO:
497, 498,

499, 500.

Is-a pay my loan
in-a full.

Grazie,Pietro. Grazie.

Here'’s your receipt.Mm.

Ah.

[ sniffs ]
Mmm.

Amadeo, you worried
about being thrown out
from the Crowder Bank?

Who told you about that? Everybody'’s a-know.

Well, what are you
gonna do now?

I'’ll think of something.

It'’s still only
a little past 5:00.

And you'’ve been here
since midnight,
you know that?

And you produce men
work all night too.

Amadeo, no banker bosses do [ rumbling ]

what you'’re doing
for us produce men.

[ rattling ]

Earthquake!

[ people screaming ]

[ clamoring ]

[ screaming,
clamoring continue ]

[ all shouting ]

Mr. Giannini!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Who wants me here?

We want our money!My money is safe.

Nothing'’s safe!

The scavengers are looting
the whole city!

Now, wait a minute.
There'’s no need to panic.

This bank will open
in a few minutes as usual.

Your money is safe.
Just be patient.

[ chattering ]

Oh, I'’m-a so happy
to see you, A.P.

I was afraid
they'’d break down the door.

Funds from the Crowder Bank.Crowder?

You mean at a time like this,
he forced you?

I insisted.
I wanted to avoid a panic.

It'’s 300,000 altogether.

300,000?
That will not be enough
if they start a run.

I know. It'’s that way
in front of every bank
in San Francisco.

Whole town'’s gone
crazy, Salvatore.
It'’s like the end of the world.

What'’s Crowder doing?Nothing he can do.

The fire'’s within
a block of his bank.

You think it will reach us?

Possibly tomorrow.

Nothing we can do
about it.

The water main'’s burst.

Well, we still have
the better part of our $300,000.

I felt sure when the customers
knew they could get their money,
they'’d change their minds.

[ bell clanging ] [ door opens ]

Market Street is in flames.

The Palace Hotel
is like a blaze in a torch.

Pack up all the books
and records.

And you-- you--
I want you to go out
and get a truck from Scapitos.

You hear?
A produce wagon.
Right away.

[ woman screaming ]

[ clamoring ]

The wagon ready?Yes, A.P.

Get the records, huh?Right here.
But when are we going?

Well, they say
when there'’s trouble,
there'’s no place like home.

I hope.You mean you'’re gonna
take-a this money?

I'’m gonna hide this money
in my house.

Guns?But across the streets
they'’re full of looters.

Well, let'’s go, huh?

Looters!Let'’s-- Let's go!

[ chattering ]

[ horse whinnying ]

The Bank of Italy-- gone.

What do you mean, gone?
Our funds are still safe
in my home.

But our building.Other banks have lost
their buildings.

What are they doing?

Well, the first thing
they'’re doing is have
a meeting this morning

of all the city'’s business
and financial leaders.

Salvatore, don'’t worry.

We'’re still in business.

Now, you gentlemen represent
most of the important business

and financial houses
in our city.

With our buildings gutted,
our vaults inaccessible,

it is patently impossible
to attempt to continue

our banking operation
at this juncture.

Therefore the bankers
of San Francisco

have resolved a moratorium

during which all of the banks
will remain closed.

[ chattering in discontentment ]Now, gentlemen.
Gentlemen, please.

I'’m sorry,
but we have no choice.

In the present state
of public hysteria and panic,

to open our banks now
would mean disaster.

Absolute disaster.

I disagree.

The people of San Francisco
need the banks now
so that they can rebuild.

Eventually.No, now.

Your gold is safe.
Your vaults are intact.

Maybe a little too hot to handle
for a couple of days.

Mr. Giannini,

the banks will remain closed
for an indefinite period.

Possibly six months.

Then you might as well
stay closed forever,

'’cause there'll be
no San Francisco.

There'’ll be nothing
but a bunch of empty banks.

Today, now, the people
need their banks,

and we must fulfill their needs.

[ men cheering ]

Gentlemen, please.

Our decision is final.

The banks will remain closed.

Now, we cannot permit ourselves
to be swayed by the rantings
of a-- of a brash upstart

who'’s not even a member of
our clearing house association,

and who has absolutely
no comprehension

of what a bank panic
can do to a city.

I know what a bank panic is,
Mr. Crowder.

I'’ve seen the angry mobs
in front of your bank,
and yours.

But I know how
to divert a panic,
keep the people busy.

Tomorrow morning,
I'’m putting a desk
on Washington Wharf,

and I'’m putting
a "Bank of Italy" sign on it,

and any man who wants
to help rebuild San Francisco

can borrow all the money from me
that he needs to do it.

Gentlemen, I suggest
you do the same.

Do you think
you can flaunt us?

Override our ruling?

Are you the law?

No, I am not the law.

But if you go on
with this hair-brained scheme
of yours,

you will be
up against the law,
and much to your sorrow.

Now, I'’m warning you.

The Bank of Italy
will loan to any man here

all he needs to rebuild his home
or his business.

[ chattering ]Now, I want you

to step right up here
and fill out these loan slips,

with your name and your address
and how much you need
to rebuild.

San Francisco
is a great city.

Now, let'’s help
to rebuild it. Huh?

[ chattering ]

Oh, Salvatore.

Now, you hand out the money,
see, and you fill in the--

A.P.Yes?

You cannot.
It'’s all off.

What do you mean?Look.

"Governor declares
bank holiday.

All San Francisco banks closed
till further notice."

[ men chattering ]

Must be some of
Crowder'’s work.

What are you going to do?Go right on.

But it'’s the governor's orders.

I don'’t care if every bank
in the country is closed.

The Bank of Italy is open.

Suppose the arrest you?All the more reason to hurry.

I will loan any man double
what he has in the bank
if he will rebuild.

Not only what he has
in the Bank of Italy,

but any bank
in the city of San Francisco.

The banks of San Francisco
are sound.

Your money is safe.

I repeat:
I will double any loan

on any money
you'’ve got deposited
in any bank in this city.

[ chattering ]

Now, how much do you want?

I, uh--
I want to make a deposit.

$724.

Deposit? Well.

Well, uh, the way I figured,

my money ain'’t doing me
much good in that tin can
buried in my yard.

In fact, I'’m a little scared
somebody might steal it.

Maybe you can loan it
to somebody that can use it.

[ murmuring ]At least it'’ll be safer
than in that tin can.

Yes, you'’re absolutely right.

It will be safe.

Here. Have a cigar.

Give this man a deposit slip
for $724.

What is your name, sir?

Paul Haus.

[ murmuring ]

Thank you, Mr. Giannini.

God bless you, Mr. Haus.

[ chattering ]

Oh, uh, how much
do you want?

$6,000.

Here'’s my passbook.

Yes, yes.

"$6,000, the Crowder Bank."

MAN:
Would you honor it?

GIANNINI:
$6,000 for Frank Clancy.

Go ahead, Salvatore.

$6,000 for Mr. Frank Clancy,
the Crowder Bank.

[ murmuring ]

Oh, Mr. Crowder.

Hello, Mr. Clancy.

Giannini.

I thought you'’d bring
the marshal with you.

No. No.

Whatever purpose I had
in coming here
doesn'’t matter now.

I just want you to know that
when your funds here run low,

the Crowder Bank
is at your disposal.

And my bank too.

[ murmuring ]

Mr. Giannini seems
to be very busy.

Next.

And so San Francisco started
to rebuild,

almost before
the ashes were cold,

because of one man'’s faith
in his fellow man.

Faith well founded.

For not one cent
that Giannini loaned

during the San Francisco
earthquake and fire went unpaid.

The bank
of Amadeo Pietro Giannini,

of which this is one of
the original passbooks,

grew into the largest bank
in the world--

the Bank of America,

a monument to the little people
from all the foreign lands

who helped make America

the great and free country
that it is today.
