called the river

of no

return.

Sometimes

it's peaceful

and sometimes

wild and free.

Love is a traveler

on the river of no

return.

Swept on forever

to be lost in the stormy

sea.

Wailaree,

>> I can hear the river call.

Where the roaring waters flow.

Wailaree,

I can hear [music] my lover call, come

to me.

I lost my love

on the [singing] river

and forever my heart

will yearn.

Gone.

Gone forever [singing]

down the river of no

return.

Wailaree.

>> Wailaree.

She'll never return

to me.

>> Your Bible, Padre. Don't lose it now.

Thank you.

I expected to find a small trading post.

And instead saw them in Gomorrah.

All because someone has found gold in

this earth. You looking for it, too,

Padre? I came here as a missionary to

the Indians.

I think the white man will need me more.

Good evening, Padre. Good evening.

Who's in charge of all this?

Padre, I'd say the devil.

What about this trading post? The devil

got that, too? No, I still got this.

I'm looking for a boy. About nine.

He was to be delivered here by a man

named Mark.

You seen him? They were here.

Were or are?

Understand the man took off for the

hills almost as soon as he pulled in.

What about the boy?

Probably walking around here lost.

Well, if he comes in, would you hold on

to him for me?

What's his name? Name is Mark Coleburn.

How old did you say? Nine.

What's your name?

I'm not lost.

>> Now, take these beers down the street to

the barber. You know where it is? Yes,

sir.

Bring back the money, cash.

And don't spill the beer, boy. It's

liquid gold.

Hey!

>> [cheering]

>> I'd like to shoot you something taller.

Like what, for instance? Like me.

You want to get yourself a gun.

I don't think I need one.

What's that tag on your coat?

The man who brought me here put it on.

I'm looking for my dad.

What's your dad look like? I don't know.

I was just a kid last time I saw him.

Would it be all right if he looked like

me?

Yes, sir. It would.

I'm your dad.

How do I know that?

The man who brought you here was named

Mark. I paid him $100.

You came from Illinois.

Anybody could have found that out.

Who's this?

My mother.

All right, son. Let's get out of here.

I have to say goodbye to Kay.

Kay, who's Kay? She's the lady who sings

in the saloon.

You have to do that?

Yes, sir. I have to.

All right, we'll do that first.

Hey!

I found him! This is him!

You got your nerve leaving this kid

running around a crummy place like this.

What kind of a father are you, anyway?

The worst.

Well, it's nice you admit it.

Nice you helped him out. I'd like to uh

I

I'd like to give you a little money.

No, thanks.

I've got a little.

Well, thanks, then. Come on, boy.

I hope I see you again sometime.

It's a pleasure meeting a gentleman.

Thank you.

Hey, you're forgetting your things. Oh.

Thanks again.

Goodbye, Mark.

Goodbye, kid.

>> [snorts]

>> What are you doing?

All right.

Where were you all day?

There's an old saying, honey, stick to

your peanut stand if you never sell a

nut. Is that your excuse? That's it.

Someday I'm going to take you out of

this crummy grind. I'm ready.

No more saloons or tent shows for you.

Or me, either.

I'm going to take you to all the

capitals of all the countries in the

world.

First, tell me what you've been

drinking. Diamonds in your hair and

rubies on your fingers. Bells on my

toes. Furs

and gowns made for queens. Uh-huh.

Except you'll look better in them.

How are you going to do all this with

your deck of cards? I've just done it.

You hear what I said, honey? I've just

done it.

Just done what? I've just won a gold

claim right in the heart of the richest

strike.

Harry, from whom? What's it matter?

All my life I've been chiseling in

penny-ante games. This time I got lucky.

This is the big one, honey. This is it.

Harry, what are you going to do? What do

you mean, me? You and me.

We're going to Council City and file a

claim before anything can happen to it.

Or us.

What could happen? Who knows? Who cares?

A man could get mad and say I did

something.

Did you?

I told you, honey, I got lucky. That's

all. Just lucky.

Look, we got to get out of here.

They ransacked the town and there isn't

a horse to be had for the crown jewels.

I got another idea.

We can buy a raft and go to Council City

on the river.

You got any money?

Well, I have a little.

All right, come on.

Come up with it.

10, 20.

All you want is my money.

Is it?

We'll plow the field and we'll plant it.

We'll hunt and fish. How does that

sound? Just you and me? That's all.

Fine. Sounds fine. Oh, we'll make out

all right. I'll teach you to fish and

trap and pretty soon you'll be as good

as the best of them. And teach me to

shoot?

Yeah, and shoot, too.

What are they doing? Oh, they're just

coming to look around the town.

I don't think they'll like what they

see. Will they make a war? No, they just

hunt, honey.

When they make a war, they paint their

faces. Then you know they're hunting

you.

Mark!

Come on, boy, get up. Get up. Hey!

Oh.

You can't just go through everything in

the world, boy.

Sometimes you have to back up and go

around.

I just had it going good. You had it

going very good, but we don't want to

break our plow or hurt our horse, now,

do we?

Come on, we'll go in the house and have

some coffee.

Why did you name me Mark?

Simple.

I'm Matthew. Mark follows Matthew. It's

the Bible.

I follow you. But

is that how you thought of it?

Well, it wasn't me. It was your mother.

Come on, let's quit dreaming.

As soon as we get our first wheat and

sell it, you've got a present coming.

Now, what do you want most? A rifle for

my own. All right, you're getting it.

Will we be rich, like the men finding

gold? No, but we'll beat those that

don't find it.

I was away from you a long time, Mark.

That's what I thought about it. I

thought

if a man doesn't know what he's doing or

where he's going, well, the best thing

for him to do is just back up and start

all over again.

I thought I'd start with the ground and

work up.

So, I sent for you.

This is it.

I never saw a guy with so many

questions.

You got any more?

You never told me where you were.

Well, I told you one thing.

Come on out here with me and I'll show

you.

I can hit anything you can see. Okay.

That tree.

Well, how could I miss a tree?

The branch. Which one?

The one on the top, to the left.

You got eyes like a grasshopper.

Man, oh man. All right, your turn. Now,

this time you're going to fire it.

Check it.

All right, now hold it like I told you.

Tight up against your shoulder.

Lay your cheek right alongside it.

All right, now what's important? To hit

the target. When? The first shot. Why?

Because I might not get another. All

right.

Take your time and aim.

I see you, boy.

Relax.

What are you aiming at? The branch on

the right side.

All right.

Wait a minute.

Maybe we better save that for later.

What do we do if they come with paint

on? We'll fight them. We cleared this

land, son. It's ours. We're going to

stay on it or under it. Come on. You're

not afraid of anything, are you?

Well, not with you.

Matt, look.

Can you make them out?

Looks like a couple of men.

Here, go get some rope.

Hold

Hold it there.

Hold it right there.

Let me go. Let me get over here.

Get the horse.

>> [music]

>> Whoa.

All right, Mark, take him out. Get up.

Take him over to the right.

>> [music]

>> Hold.

Here.

They're ready to get off.

My things.

Let go.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Leave it or not, this is our honeymoon.

Well, the main idea is to live through

it.

Call me Matt Calder. Weston. Harry

Weston. Sure, thank you. All right.

Hi.

You don't know how good it is to see you

again. You two know each other? This one

and I are old friends. You better come

up to the cabin and dry off. Son, run

along and build the fire, will you? All

right. Come on, I'll go with you.

Let's go.

I'm with you. Let's go.

Hey, what is this? What have you got

here, Calder?

A farm.

Everybody and his brother for 100 miles

around is looking for gold and you're

digging a farm? That's it.

I hope you know what you're doing.

Well, I know that they don't.

Don't I know you from somewhere?

Well, that might depend on what you do.

I'm a gambler.

And you don't know me from anywhere.

I always say, "What's the difference?"

Yeah, that's what I always say.

He fixed the leak on the raft.

Yeah, he's a man in a hurry.

It's a matter of life and death. He's

got to get to Council City.

On that raft? He says so.

Well, don't bring his troubles to me.

She's beautiful, isn't she?

There's an old saying, Mark, it's only

skin deep. What is?

Beauty.

How deep should it be?

Well, ask her, son.

She looks like an expert.

Hi. Hi, friend.

Pretty elegant, aren't they? Got to take

care of them. They're all I got left.

Why did you get married?

I fell in love. How do you know when you

fall in love? I don't know. Can't eat or

sleep.

>> Like an ache in the stomach? Same thing.

Only in the heart.

You find out when you get older. How old

are you?

That's no question to ask a lady. Not

that I'm a lady.

Why aren't you?

See me in about 10 years, I'll try and

tell you.

I said you were beautiful, and he said

beauty was skin deep. Who did? Matt, my

dad. He said it was an old saying.

It's an old saying by an old crow.

When did you lose your mother?

His well dad was away. That's why he

sent for me.

Are you going to look for gold? I could

stand a little. What would you do with

it?

Do with it?

Oh, buy fancy gowns, live in the swell

hotels in the big city,

go to the opera.

What's that?

That's music. Very high-toned and fancy.

Not like mine. I like yours.

Would you sing one?

I might have one for you if I remember

it.

It was a long time ago.

When Mr. Southwind

sighs in the pine,

old Mr. Winter

whimpers and whines.

Down in the meadow, under the snow,

April is teaching green things to grow.

[music]

When Mr. Westwind hums [singing] in the

glade,

old Mr. Summer

nods in the shade.

Down in the meadow, under the brook,

catfish are waiting for the hook.

Old Lady Blackbird flirts with a

scarecrow, scarecrow is waving at the

moon.

Old Mr. Moon makes hearts everywhere go

bump,

bump,

with the magic of two.

>> All right, come and get it.

When Mr. Eastwind shouts overhead,

then all the

turn yellow and red.

Down in the meadow, corn stalks are

high,

pumpkins are ripe and

ready

for pie.

I look at you, Calder, I just can't see

you becoming a farmer.

Anything else I might believe. Well,

I'll try and struggle along without you

believing it. Some more coffee? Yeah.

What do they do with the gold after they

find it?

They make money out of it. Why do they

use gold? Because it's hard to get. Why

don't they use something easy to get?

Well, if something's easy to get, people

don't care about it. They don't value

it.

It's hard to get.

Then you've got something. Like a mink?

A mink is hard to catch.

Now you've got it. That's the idea,

exactly. How about a skunk?

How about another dish? Calder, how long

do you think it'll take us to get from

here to Council City?

You don't know this country. No, but I

got a map here.

All right.

You're right here.

I had some trouble getting here. Had

some luck, too.

There's Council City down there. Oh,

it's not far.

A good green log might not make those

rapids between here and Council City.

Made the last one.

I know, I was there.

Now, the river drops from here, the

rapids get worse.

You cut through a gorge of solid wall

for 15 miles. Wall goes straight up.

The other way is overland, but you

haven't got a gun, haven't got a horse.

So, you say it can't be done? You asked

me how far it was, that's how far.

That's enough.

Calder, I got a gold claim to file in

Council City.

I got to get there.

Come on, Matt.

>> imagine me being a farmer, I can't

imagine you a prospector.

I won in the stud game.

All my life I won the little pots and

lost the big ones. This time I got

lucky.

Lucky?

With a boob I was playing, cheating

would have just gotten in the way. Well,

what's your hurry?

Well, maybe the man thinks like you do.

It wasn't just luck.

What can he do about it now?

Well, he may be trying to get to Council

City, too.

Might get there first.

It would be bad for one of us.

How much do you want for your horse and

your gun?

Money? Now, what would I do? Plow that

field up with a silver dollar and then

throw it in some Indian's face?

>> [snorts]

>> I got to get there. How much do you

want?

Why don't you wait till I get that field

plowed and seeded, and I'll take you.

I can't wait.

Well, I can't go.

It isn't there, Calder.

Go on outside.

Go on. You got a kid out there.

Harry, what are you doing?

I'm taking the gun, Calder. I'm

borrowing the horse.

Get it.

Get it.

No one will get hurt.

Mark, go ahead. Do what he says.

No.

Do it.

This will only take a few days, then

we'll be back.

Take the boy with you. Boy, what for?

Indians, Weston. You've got the rifle,

take the boy with it.

I can't do that, Calder. I'm in a hurry.

This could mean a fortune to me. It

could mean his life.

Get some food in a bag. Let the boy get

it.

Saddle a horse.

Harry, we don't have to do this. It's

just a few days.

It doesn't matter that much. Yes, it

does.

Four or five days might not make any

difference to a farmer,

but they do to me.

I'm not stealing anything, I'm just

borrowing it.

You'll get paid plenty for the favor.

Fistful of money in the hand is good as

a fistful of wheat in the ground.

MATT! MATT!

THEY GOT MY THE GUN.

MATT!

>> [crying]

>> MATT!

COME ON, let's get out of here. You

killed him! You killed my dad!

>> He'll be all right. Get some water. Come

on, come on! We can't leave him like

this, Harry. He's hurt.

>> He didn't have to be.

He didn't have to get us off the raft,

did he?

I think I'll wait here for you, Harry.

What do you mean, wait? I mean what I

said.

I can't leave them like this. I can't

leave the boy.

You'll get to Kansas City twice as fast

without me along, won't you?

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess so. And you can have the

claim filed and be back here all the

sooner.

You go ahead, Harry. I'll wait here.

You won't take long, will you?

Not with you here.

You know that.

Stop worrying. He'll be all right. Take

more than a wooden end of a rifle to

kill him.

He's got a head like a boulder.

Hey, wait a minute.

What do you think you're doing?

Are they gone? The man's gone. She

stayed. She didn't want to leave us.

Why not? Because you were hurt. She told

him that she had to stay.

>> left you here to take care of me, huh?

Look, maybe I don't like what he did or

the way he did it,

but he'll be back.

And you'll be taken care of.

That's nice.

Everybody's going to take care of me.

So are they.

Well, we'll have to get out of here.

We'll take the raft. Come on, son.

But how can we take the raft? You said

>> What I said before doesn't count. We've

got no choice now.

You better get your junk.

>> [music]

>> Come on, Kate.

Let's go.

Just a minute. Hold this.

MARK!

MARK! HURRY UP!

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> It's all right, son.

At least we're not in it.

We'll not do that again.

Couldn't they have done it anyway?

Against a rifle?

Couldn't they?

Not so easy.

All right, hang on.

Things keep on this way, I'll be using

it for good canvas or

Next time, don't try to be so brave.

When you get hurt, yell. It just stung,

then I forgot it. Listen to him.

Keep still a second while I tie it.

I don't need this. Be still.

Well,

I'm going to see what I can do with this

in the river.

The whole country's crawling with

Indians, and you're going fishing?

There are lots of ways to die. Starving

to death is not one of my favorites.

He does that for good luck.

He'll need it to fish that way.

I ought to go out and help myself. There

should be some berries around here.

Where?

Oh, up along there.

I'll pick them.

You stay put.

Now, stay put.

What do you think you're doing?

Berries.

I'm gathering berries. Not bad. I didn't

think you were the type.

Even my type gets hungry.

Want to show me your fish? I left them

in the river.

Take some.

Go on, take some.

Give some to the boy, huh?

Glad you reminded me. I never would have

thought of it.

Fish shall wait for the hook.

Old lady blackbird flies with a stake,

stake

waving at the moon.

Old mister moon makes hearts everywhere

go bump,

bump

with the magic of June.

When Mr. Northwind

blows on the breeze,

old Father Christmas

trims all the trees.

Down in the meadow,

so softly gleams,

Earth

goes to sleep

and smiles

in her dream.

Kind of small fish, aren't they?

There's an old saying.

A small fish is better than an empty

dish. Say, you got quite a stock of

those old sayings.

Where did you ever learn a song like

that?

I didn't go straight from the cradle to

a gold camp.

Why did you ever go there at all?

I had to live. At least I thought so.

I had to get money to get out.

When I met Harry, he wanted the same

thing.

Then he won the claim.

It was a good chance.

A chance for both of us to get away.

Where?

Out of the lives we were both living.

Someplace where people live like human

beings.

That's in heaven.

We weren't thinking of going quite that

far, were we?

Well, you're both on the shortcut.

You're going after him, aren't you?

Yeah, that's it.

But you said no one could go down the

river.

You said it'd be suicide if he tried it.

He's not trying.

I am.

There's a difference.

You're not going to give him a chance,

are you?

Sure, I'll give him a chance. Same

chance he gave me.

And him.

Next time you try anything like that,

I'll forget that you're a woman. I doubt

that.

Just take my word for it.

Fool.

Do you know what you're doing?

I think I do.

Do you know this? Do you know how long

we'd last out here without that raft,

without the rifle?

A whole country alive with Indians.

Just how many kinds of fool are you?

I'm not your kind.

What are you, Western's kind?

You love that rat so much you'd risk all

our lives just to keep me from getting

him?

You couldn't understand.

I just don't see it.

Treating you the way he did.

I'll tell you. I'll tell you how he

didn't treat me.

He didn't treat me like a

He treated me like a woman.

So, he made a mistake. If you would live

like he has all of his life on crumbs

and bones, maybe you'd do a crazy thing

if you had a chance to make a fortune.

Maybe you'd do a foolish thing yourself.

I wouldn't leave a kid to die or a

woman.

Even if she was a

I suppose you've never made a mistake.

You're too perfect.

You never made any. None that I didn't

pay for, like he will.

All right, you know so much about him.

But he knows about you, too.

He knows all about you.

He made a mistake with you, at least it

wasn't murder. What do you mean by that?

You know what I mean. He knew who you

were. He knew where you came from and

what you did.

He knew you killed a man and went to

prison for it. And why you went to

prison? Because you shot him in the

back.

Go get the stuff on the raft.

Come here, boy.

I should have told you myself.

You did what you said?

Yeah.

Look.

Look, the man was no good.

He was trying to kill a friend of mine,

so I shot him.

They sent me to prison for it.

That's where I was when I was away from

you.

I could have told you much easier when

you were older.

You shot him in the back?

>> That's right. I shot him in the back or

in the front.

What does it matter how you kill a

snake?

What does it matter which way he's

facing?

You better get moving. You want to help

her with the stuff?

The Indians call it the river of no

return.

From here on, you'll find out why.

One thing about this, the longer you

last, the less you care.

>> [music]

>> Hey!

>> [music]

>> You stay out here and keep watch. If you

see or hear anything, whistle.

I can't light a fire yet.

They may be around here.

Indians.

I know.

They can smell smoke as far as they can

see it.

I'll be all right.

Yeah, you look fine.

You, too.

Now, get out of those clothes and climb

under these blankets.

Here.

I'll wait outside.

Dry yourself with one blanket and wrap

yourself in the other.

See anything? No.

Is she going to die? No, she's a strong

girl.

She won't die so easy.

But she's awfully sick, isn't she?

No, she's cold, exhausted, hungry.

Will we stay here long?

No, we're hungry, too.

Better see if you can scrape up some

wood. Maybe some pine nuts.

We'll have to take a chance on a fire.

And be careful.

All right.

Pretty fancy for the Northwest.

You're pouring Kansas City.

Lie down.

Come on. Come on.

I stood up.

I think you're well.

I'm sorry I opened my big mouth in front

of the boy.

You hurt me and I wanted to hurt you

back.

Well, that's the way it works.

If it wasn't for me, you'd be halfway to

Kansas City by now.

If it wasn't for Weston, I'd be asleep

in the bunk in my cabin.

Can't you get some sleep?

Just so he does. That's what matters.

I don't know what happened to me back

there. You're just hungry. Sometimes men

have eaten worms and grubs and roots.

You read that in a book. I ate a worm

once, but I was very young then.

Last week in Tent City, I ate a sirloin

steak.

I was a lot younger than myself.

He's asleep now.

We'll let him sleep.

It wouldn't be anything if we had a

rifle. He'd just hunt something and kill

it. He's a fine shot.

Why did he kill a man?

Sometimes you can't help it.

Sometimes it's to save your own life.

You said it was to save his friends.

That can be the same as your own.

Then why'd they send him to prison?

It's hard to say.

Cuz he shot him in the back?

Kay!

Look, there's two of them.

Wake him. Wake him up.

Look.

Get the rope.

>> [music]

>> You got him! You got him!

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Isn't it almost done?

Almost.

Now, where did she go?

Her name's Kay. I know. You always say

you or her or she.

Why do you hate her?

Now, what makes you think I hate her?

You treat her

>> Bad. I treat her like what she is to me,

nothing.

Then it's only because you hate him. The

man who stole from us. Well, don't you?

No.

After what he did to us?

She said he didn't know any better.

She said that sometimes you do wrong

things that seem all right when you do

them.

Like what?

Like what you did.

Are you going to kill him?

Mark, look.

There's a law.

You can't steal a man's horse.

In this land, that's like stealing his

life.

I didn't make the law.

All men make them to live by.

What he did to us might have taken our

lives, still my

Now, you going to tell me where she

went? Where Kay went?

She's taking a bath in the waterfall.

Finish it.

I'd be alive again if I hadn't starved

to death.

I see you're still alive. How is the

water?

Freezing, but I'm becoming hardened.

I guess it's from seeing life in the raw

and running around with strong, silent

types like you guys.

Yeah.

I'll go get the stuff off the raft. I'll

help you.

See how I've changed? How would I know?

You ought to take a dip in the falls

yourself. Might wash some of the starch

out of you. Or rust, or whatever it is.

Or whatever it is.

You don't have to do me any personal

spite yourself.

Some other time and some other place, we

might have even gotten along.

And what's all this? What kind of an act

is this?

I'm a performer, didn't you know? Songs

and dances. I think I know you pretty

well.

I think I know you, too. Well,

what am I like?

Really not so bad.

Not so tough and grim as you seem.

Think you do a little acting yourself.

You could be nice if you had tried.

You don't have to hate me just because

you hate him.

I don't hate you.

You'd do anything to save him, wouldn't

you?

We can be

friends.

We could be that without him.

Why?

Why not?

>> [music]

[music]

>> You sure wanted that meat.

Yeah, we're in a hungry world, ain't we?

You all right? I think so, but you're

not.

Take your shirt off.

Oh, I'll live. My name's Benson. This is

Dave Colby.

You're a fine shot. I'm as hungry as

that cat. We ain't ate for 2 days. Well,

go ahead and eat. You earned a piece of

it. Sit down. We smelled your food.

Had to make sure it wasn't Indians.

Left our horses down by the water.

You prospecting for gold?

Not anymore, mister.

We're prospecting for a man.

You didn't say who you was.

Calder.

This say your wife?

No.

You headed for Council City?

Yeah, on the river.

We got a raft. Ain't that kind of

foolish with all these Indians?

It isn't too bright without them. Yeah.

Now I know where I seen you.

Same place you left your table manners?

Same place I left a gold claim to a card

shark named Weston.

Wasn't you and him kind of thick?

I can't quite place you, but then all

the faces look the same.

I heard you and him pulled out of there

on a raft.

You know something about this?

Yeah, that's my trouble.

I know a little about everything.

What are you doing with this guy? I

wanted to get away for a while. Fresh

air and relaxation.

You dump Weston?

Or did he dump you?

All right, honey, I'm looking for him,

too.

Only you try to make Council City on

that raft and you won't get away for a

while.

You'll get away forever.

You come with us

and you got a chance. Oh, we'll get

there.

You get your belly full of food and

you're a lover.

Did you hear what I said?

Honey?

She heard you.

Well, ain't she got a right to take her

best chance the way she sees it?

With us, she's got one.

You want to ask me?

Go ahead, honey.

It's your party. All right. I'd rather

have no chance with him.

You heard her.

You and your partner did me a favor,

Colby, now I'll do one for you.

Just take your meat and get out.

All right, get up.

Get up.

You want to do what I say?

Do what he says.

Get your horses and ride them up to that

point.

Wait for your friend there.

Do it.

Don't leave his rifle. Just take your

Do it, Sam.

Thanks for the meat.

Drop your cartridge belt.

Get the stuff aboard.

Take that rifle, son.

All right, come on.

What's all this for?

As soon as he gets to that point, you

can run after him.

You going to count? I can subtract two

men from two horses and have two horses

left for myself if you like it better

that way.

You got the knife, Calder. I got it from

you.

All right, now you can get out.

I hope this river don't kill you,

Calder. Hope it leaves you for me.

Two proud of the raft, eh?

I'm not asleep.

Here.

Drink this.

Make you feel better.

Careful, that's the last of it.

Is that all it's the last of?

Drink it.

I'll split it with you.

I get everybody into trouble.

You mean Cole?

You couldn't help that.

You'll never be able to help that.

Besides, it isn't you, it's the gold.

It made a thief of Weston, a pig out of

Colby, and a fool of you.

One thing about you, though.

You get somebody in trouble, you get

right in it with them.

Only trouble should get you somewhere.

Never gets me anything. Sure it does. It

gets you more of the same.

Not some people.

You mean Weston? Yes.

He's going to get someplace no matter

what it takes.

Is that why you married him?

What do you care?

You lose your ring?

You know everything, don't you?

Like the kid says.

Nothing to me.

No, we're not married.

We were going to be married in Council

City.

We're never going to get there, are we?

Like you said, who gets anywhere?

The boy's asleep.

You can tell me now.

I would have said we'd never get here.

Finish it.

You're a strange man.

Sometimes not like a man at all.

Like an animal? No, I didn't mean that.

I didn't mean it, either, back there.

You know, you're sort of on the strange

side yourself.

You'd have been much surer of getting to

Council City with Colby.

Why didn't you go with him?

You have to ask? A man like that?

Well, what's a man like Weston?

How would you know?

How would you know anything about him?

What he wanted all of his life or what

he's been.

You only know the one thing he did to

you.

The one crazy thing.

Because he was desperate. About a hunk

of gold?

>> About his life.

You can't even see the difference

between him and that man back there.

Are they waiting for us?

The fish have a better chance.

Or him.

Why can't they get along without us?

They just want to make sure of it.

Did you see him?

I saw the one with the man's horse.

Which man? Colby.

There was birds.

The buzzard? Yeah.

Look!

>> [music]

>> Can they come down?

As soon as they find the right place.

They'll know where it is.

Hand me that rifle, son.

Look out!

>> [music]

>> Look out!

Give me the rifle.

Oh god!

Take the rope.

Well, there it is. That's Council City.

What do you want when we get there? A

cup of coffee. A whole cup for myself.

You've got it.

What do you want?

You're still going after him, aren't

you? You know that.

Nothing I could say would change or help

you. Nothing.

Then I want one thing.

Let me find him first and talk to him.

Let me see him alone and explain. That

isn't much, is it? It might be all he

needs.

Just a few minutes. A little time.

All right, Kay. You've got it.

You never believed we'd make it, did

you? Not very often. I knew you

wouldn't.

I knew that if a man hated as much as

you did, he could do anything.

Or love as much. Love what?

Him.

It was for him. Not for a horse or a gun

or the man who took them.

That's just how it began.

I guess that must be the best thing

there is. What?

To be loved that much. Look! Here's our

horse!

Well, it looks like he's here.

I was hoping he wasn't. I was hoping

he'd gone back to your place.

>> No chance.

But why did he stay here? Because he

knew I'd never make it. Matt Calder!

Pikasha, I thought you was down there on

your farm with a tomahawk in your head.

Well, I like to keep my head, Ben. It's

about the only thing I've got left.

That's a fine animal.

Who belongs to him? Fella named Weston.

Where can I find him?

Across the street at the Black Nugget.

Say, you look like you could stand a

shot yourself.

No, but we could use some coffee. You

got any? Got everything but potted

grass. Come on in.

He said the Black Nugget.

Yes.

Don't be too long.

No.

Tell him I'm here.

He can run, but he can't hide.

He won't run.

Just talk to him. Give yourself a chance

to find out. I'm giving you the chance.

Where's she going?

She'll be back. Come on, let's get that

coffee.

Jay, honey. Why didn't you start back,

Harry?

I thought I was doing pretty good just

to make it to here.

Have a seat.

How did you get here?

Calder?

Yes.

All right, where is he? He's at the

store having coffee. He's waiting.

For me?

For us.

He let me see you alone first.

First? Before what?

You ought to know [music] by now.

Would you like something?

No. Nothing, Jack.

Well, what's there to talk about?

He could have you hanged for what you

did. He could kill you and nobody would

blame him.

I might.

I told him why you did it.

What it was [music] that made both of us

the way we were.

I think he believed me at last.

Now it's up to you.

You have to tell him, too. Tell him

what?

The truth, Harry.

That you were desperate. That you didn't

mean to harm him or the boy.

What makes you think he'll listen to me?

Because of the kind of man he is.

Because of the boy.

Or because of you?

Look, honey, I got the claim filed.

We can get rich and get out of here

forever.

Unless you were thinking you two could

hang me and have the claim together.

>> [laughter]

>> I didn't mean that at all.

I mean it all my life I've been nothing.

Drifter, cheater, tinhorn.

All my life I waited for the one big

chance a man gets, [music] and this is

mine.

And I'm not going to lose it, or risk

it, or go back to being what I was

before, or get strung up just because

some dirt farmer wants his horse back.

That's what I mean.

All right, Jay, I'll talk to him.

What's that for? In case he's hard of

hearing.

All right, Jay.

Any way you want it.

Heard about your place, man.

Bad for me, good for you, Ben. It all

depends on whose ox gets gored.

What you need?

Just about everything my credit will

stand.

Take what you want.

Thanks.

They're all kind of crazy, ain't they?

What's that, Ben? The times.

White men chasing the gold, Indians

chasing white men,

army chasing the Indians.

You like that rifle, keep it.

What are you chasing, Matt?

Don't try to buy him.

Don't offer him anything. Just tell him

the truth.

Are you listening to me, Harry?

Harry, no! Turn loose.

I

I had to.

It's all right, Mark.

It's all right.

You saw it. You know.

There was no other way, Mark.

It was him or your dad.

Where's she going?

I don't know. Is she going away now? I

don't know.

>> [applause]

[cheering]

[applause]

>> HEY, WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

ARE YOU CRAZY, MATT? Put me down.

Matt,

Where are you taking me? Home.

Matt,
