All language subtitles for Sindicato da Violência

How many people

does

your daddy know before you're working
for the

company?

We all take care of our own kind here.

You join the union, pay the fee.

You don't ask questions, you're a
brother of mine.

Working for the company.

High-flying machinery man.

Digging deep for black...

To burn.

To burn.

Hello, Earl. Is this your son?

That's right.

Good. Another one for the mine.

Well, I think you know how.

Flip it through your belt, that's right.

Flip it on your hat.

An attractive pension, your only legacy.

If you live to collect, it's
interest-free, interest-free.

Promise you won't take me to see another
Swedish picture. Oh, come on. It wasn't

that bad.

Not bad?

Some rich girl thinks she's someone's
father. That's not bad? No, it wasn't

about that.

I thought it was interesting.

Anyhow, my next birthday, take me to see
a picture with a lot of action.

Make sure the theater's in town here.

Hell lights are out try the one in the
hall

in a crick.

Enough is enough. After all, tonight
ain't my night. Every night is your

night, Tony.

I

guess

Henry Speeder's testimonial dinner in
Washington's over by now. Here you go,

Sherman. Yeah, I sure didn't need that.

I'm glad you're here with us.

Hey, I'll tell you one thing.

When old John L. turned the union over
to Tony Boyle, he made the biggest

mistake he ever made.

Tony's all right.

A little stupid, but he's all right.

And maybe the coal operators have got
him in their hip pockets, but not all

the way in. He may be selling the miners
down the river, but not all the way

down. Well, Mark's right, and you know
that, don't you? I'll tell you.

Yablonski, rule number 17, paragraph A.
No one but Jock is allowed to say what a

horse's ass Tony Boyle is. Shut it.

Look, we got a lot to be grateful for,
especially me. I was a miner, but I made

a pretty good life out of it.

What do I got to complain about?

I got a wife who takes me to Pittsburgh
to see foreign movies.

That was a good movie.

And I've got you.

I've got more of a family than I could
have ever hoped for.

Real friends.

I love you. That's all.

Hey, Chuck, hold up a minute, will you?

I need a little favor.

Sure, what?

Well, I got a little problem with the
pension fund. It's no big deal. It's

just an accounting screw-up.

But I'm going to need some statements
from some of the old-timers. You know

what I mean about maybe they got a
little extra benefit here and there?

Ah, jeez.

Tony, what makes you think those men are
going to say they got more than the

union ever gave them?

Simple.

If they don't say it.

They may wind up with nothing.

I can't do that. You can't. Sure you
can't. It's nothing for you. You've got

a line of bullshit a mile long.

Piece of kilbasa.

What can you do?

Yeah.

Headline news, disaster strikes in West
Virginia.

An early morning mining explosion has
trapped at least 80 miners in

Farmington. The cause of the blast is
unknown.

Rescue efforts are underway, but as of
yet, no word on how they are proceeding.

We'll be updating this tragic story as
soon as details are available.

Metro news time is 9.05.

Local wide news in a moment.

Tony, the boys are here to take you to
the airport.

All right, she's on the way. I'm on my
way.

and their own down home Texas barbecue
sauce.

Good morning, Mr. Boyle. Ed.

Let's go, John.

Tony Boyle is mad. Topping mad.

What we got here is a tragic accident.

Now you all know me.

I've lost relatives in these mine
explosions.

And that was in the days when there was
no safety commission.

There were no companies who cared about
the safety of miners.

Right now what we got is 80 brave men
trapped down there in this mine.

What we got to do is pray to God, or
whoever you pray to. I don't care if

you're a Catholic, a Methodist, or a
Republican.

We've got to pray that these brave men
keep the faith and come safely out of

that mine.

Now, there's been a lot of stupid loose
talk about how this tragic accident

might have something to do with the
company. Well, that's the kind of soft

-headed thinking I've always hated. It's
bad enough. We might lose these 80 brave

men. So let's not have any more stupid
talk about this company.

We all know that mining coal is
dangerous work.

This is a time when we must all stick
together.

We don't go down in the mine to be safe.

We go down to get the coal out.

Anybody who says this mine isn't safe
doesn't know what they're talking about.

And let me say this to you. If there's
such a thing on the face of this earth

as a safe mine, it's this one.

You goddamn thief bastard. In order to
stop the fires that continue to rage

underground, the decision was made to
cut off all the oxygen with this.

All remaining hopes that some of the 80
trapped miners might be rescued were, of

course, abandoned once and for all.

In other news, the President's Council
on Drug Abuse made a statement...

You're almost ready.

I wish I knew what I was going to say to
those people down there.

What can anyone say to those poor widows
and their children?

Especially after Tony Boyle went dancing
down there with a flower in his lapel,

singing the praises of the company.

Go ahead, say it.

Say what?

Whatever's on your mind. Whatever's
making you look like that.

You know how I feel.

Miners want a real union.

With a real man to run it.

If you ran for the presidency against
Tony Boyle, it could be yours.

I wish it was that easy, Peg.

I'm not saying it would be easy. I'm
just saying you can do it.

What are we going to do? Spend the rest
of our lives sitting around dreaming

about what might have been?

There comes a time when you just have to
make a decision and do what you know is

right. Don't you think I'd like to do
that?

Then do it. Do it.

Take the union away from that little
crook.

He'd want me killed.

If I ran against him.

Are you ready to go through something
like that? You ready to check under the

hood every time you go to start the car?

You ready to wonder if that stranger or
this one has a contract on my life?

Not if we come out in the open.

There's nothing Tony can do with the
whole country watching.

And you can win, honey.

I know you can.

shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green
pastures. He leadeth me beside the still

waters. He restoreth my soul.

He leadeth me in the path of
righteousness, for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of
the shadow of death, I will fear no

evil, for thou art with me.

Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Thou preparest the table before me. Thou
anointest my head with oil.

My cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life, and I will

dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

And so we commit to the earth this
coffin, symbolizing our loss and

our grief.

Why the hell do we bother?

They're good and buried already.

Man that is born of a woman hath but a
short time to live.

If you want to talk to somebody, I'll be
down at the Union Hall. We can talk

there.

You're with the Union?

Get the hell away from me.

Hey,

Jock, where's all the action?

You know, I got to start sending you
out. We're getting ready for my election

around here, and I got to schedule me.
Tony, I got to talk to you about West

Virginia.

Oh, yeah, West Virginia. Did you get all
that squared away down there?

Jesus, squared away. When I told them I
was with the union, they almost ran me

out of town.

Yeah, yeah, them people.

They always got something going on.
Tony, don't you know what you did?

You went down there and you patted the
company on the back when all the time

you should have been letting our people
know we were with them.

Maybe I don't always say the right
thing. You know, that's why I got a

fella like you. Maybe you better go back
down there and smooth things up, make

them nice. You know, give them some of
that Polish magic, huh?

They don't need speeches, Tony.

We gotta make things right.

We have to be a union again. A real one.

You've gone nuts. What are you talking
about, we?

You're talking like a goddamn fool.

We, we've got to turn things around.

Your fucking jealousy finally got you,
didn't it? It burrowed a hole in your

thick Polack skull.

The fucking day John L. Lewis handed me
this union, I saw a bug in your ass.

You just can't get it through your head,
can you?

This is my union.

Me, Tony Boyle.

You don't believe it?

Go out in the hall, walk up and down,
and bring me one picture of Jocky

Oblonsky.

You can't.

And you never will.

It's my union.

Me! Tony Boyle. You son of a bitch.

You knew that mine was unsafe, and you
looked the other way for a couple of

bucks. I don't have to listen to this,
you know, especially not from some

fucking dumb Polack, who, by the way,
works for me!

I can take you down, Jockey Boy, and
don't forget it. I can strip you of your

fucking office and everything you've
got, and all I gotta do is snap my

fingers. You got it?

Snap. And it's gone.

Go ahead.

Snap.

How you feeling, Pop?

I'm looking forward to this day.

I've called this press

conference to announce that

I've decided to run for the presidency
of the United Mine Workers of America.

I'm doing this because I'm deeply aware
of the insufferable gap between the

union leadership and the working miners
that's generated a climate of fear and

inhibition. For 35 years, I've seen this
organization stand as the only bulwark

against the oppression and greed of the
coal operators.

and the insensitivity and corruption of
government in the mining areas.

But in recent years, the present
leadership has not responded to the

miners.

They have not fought for their health
and safety.

I've been a part of this leadership.

I participated in and tolerated the
deteriorating performance, but with an

increasingly troubled conscience.

Now, today, I'm not going to be beholden
to the past.

I'll try to answer your questions.

Does President Tony Boyle know of your
decision?

He does now.

Does the black lung disease be an issue?
Yes, and mine safety, and democracy in

the union.

What about the union pension fund?

There are allegations of mismanagement.

We'll look into it.

How do you justify this sudden decision
to run after having remained silent for

so long?

There's a poem.

When ye be an anvil, hold ye still.

When ye be a hammer, strike.

Today, and for as long as I live, Jock
Jablonski is a hammer.

What's the matter, Ellen?

Your friend, Jock Jablonski, just
announced to a room full of reporters

that he's going to run for the
presidency.

He did.

Presidency of what?

Now, look, the reporters are calling
already. They want a statement.

Spolak's gone nuts.

Don't he know this is an American union?

We don't want no skis for president.

Boyle from England.

Lewis from Wales.

You get me?

It's not going to be that easy, Tony.

He's got support.

Who's behind him?

He's got the black lung people.

Talk to me, Ellen, about the black lung
people. For Christ's sake, I had men in

my family die of that before they had a
name for it. And besides, do you think

Albert here come from Tennessee to talk
about black lung?

Now, Tony, you know this union is my
life.

When I seen what the mine's done to my
daddy, I swore I'd never go down.

But in but two weeks, I've been working
for the union ever since.

You realize what this goofy Polak is
trying to do, don't you?

He's trying to bust this union apart.

If he wins, a hell of a lot of us are
going to go to jail.

I mean, I've been busting heads in
dynamite as long as I can remember.

You know, it's crazy.

I mean, the way one thing just leads
into another.

I know, Albert.

But we all got to do what we got to do.

I mean for the good of it all. You
follow me?

We're going to have to make a statement,
Tony.

Oh, I'm going to make a statement.

But it ain't going to be to a bunch of
fairies at the goddamn newspaper.

You follow me, Albert?

Gotta look your best, huh?

Okay, let's go.

Look, you mind staying with me tonight?

I mean, at least at the same table. You
don't have to only talk to me. Just stay

at my table.

Sure, baby.

Well,

what did you say to him?

Shit, I told the fuck guy. I said...

Give me the fucking money or I'll rip
off your little weenie and make you eat

it.

I don't want to scare anyone. Oh, he was
scared.

He said, yep, that's right, Lee.

So, uh, what was your take on it?

28 bucks.

Oh, God, Claude, you call that worth it?

Come on, Annette, let's go home.

Oh, not now, honey. I need to be out.

Just send me.

Please, Paul, let me enjoy myself.

Okay?

Come on, give me a smile.

Okay.

Show

your support.

Come to the union hall tonight at 8
o'clock.

Join the fight for a real union.

Vote for Chuck Jablonski. I was hoping
for a great turnout from local 849 on

this very important occasion.

I'm happy to see you haven't let me
down. Now, I want to introduce to you a

man who needs no introduction.

A man who I am proud to call my friend.
A man with the strength of a team of

horses and the courage of a lion. The
next president of the United Mine

Workers of America, Jack.

more than five miles from here, in the
wake of one of the worst tragedies this

area has ever known, Tony Boyle stood in
front of the men and women of this

community and the whole world and sang
the praises of the company.

Now, what do you do when your president
sells you down the river?

Do you go to your district leader?

Not if you're a minor, you don't,
because your district leader works for

Tony Boyle.

And picked and groomed by him.

As far as he's concerned, you can go to
hell.

Over here we got a two-time in jail bird
from honky land who says he's the only

one who knows what's best for this
country.

He says your president isn't what he
cracked up to be.

He says the full of John L. Lewis picked
and that you men

voted in.

And him too, by the way, you know that,
don't you?

He voted for me.

For Christ's sake, the man used to work
for me.

Well, what do you think?

Hmm.

Hey, those are mine.

I bought them.

Go fuck yourself.

And what the hell are you watching this
crap for?

What are you going to do with your life?

I don't know.

Well, if you don't decide, it just means
someone decides for you.

You took the last one.

Here.

Forget it.

I'm trying to be like a father to you.

My mom can't stay to hear.

I know, I know.

The neighborhood's going bad.

So there is more to life, Bobby, than
just material things, huh?

Yeah, well, there's more to life than
living in nigger town USA, too.

I'll tell you what we can do.

You get dressed.

And I'll take you to the old restaurant.

Better surprise.

Come on.

Uh, we're going in the back, Martha.

See to it we're not bothering.

Okay?

All right, check it out. Come on.

Why don't you go find her and we can
treat you?

Yeah, I have to get this done.

Where'd you get them all?

Ah, don't you worry about that.

I make deals.

You know, maybe your mother never told
you, but I am true to the Jew when it

comes to business.

Okay. I said

before I'd appreciate it if you found
somewhere else to

do your business.

I ain't doing nothing wrong. I know what
you're doing.

I'm right out in the open, too. I told
you.

Cops have been talking to me. They know
this place is full of people like you,

and I'm being blamed.

Well, that ain't fair, is it?

Sit the fuck down, Paul.

Grab a chair for your boyfriend.

Disgusting. This is a nap, son.

Very nice.

That ain't funny, Billy. Knock it off.

Like I always say, ain't no harm in
doing a friend a favor so long as you

don't make a filthy habit out of it.

Come on, are we going or not?

Where you going?

I'm taking him to do some target
shooting.

You got guns?

More than you ever saw.

You know, I used to live in a warehouse
just like this one.

You don't say.

Yeah, with this real bitch.

You know, I had a lot of women, but this
was the first bitch that ever accused me

of screwing her daughter.

Did you? Get out of here. She was four
years old.

All right, now just pick yourself a
target, Bobby.

Now, there are two things you've got to
keep in mind.

Don't hold your breath. Just keep
breathing.

And you never jerk the trigger.

You just squeeze it like this.

One dead calm.

All right.

Now, give it a try, son.

Good. Easy.

Not too bad.

We're gonna win this election

We're

gonna win it because we have to

We can't work in these coal mines
without a union.

A real union.

One that fights for us and cares.

Thank God.

Most of you are too young to know what
it was like when there was no union.

The coal operators could have anything
they wanted.

Well, it so happens we don't have a
union all over again.

Help me get it back.

get it back, the crooks who've been
getting rich off the blood and sweat of

the miners are going to have to answer
for what they've done.

And I'm not talking about some district
leaders.

It goes all the way to the top.

All the way.

I'm no lawyer, but I wouldn't be
surprised if a man named Tony ended up

in a federal penitentiary by the time
this thing is through.

Albert, it's me.

Sorry we're late, Albert. We had to
straighten out some things.

Well, I figure.

If that makes me wait, he must think
he's better than me.

Me better than you?

I'm running your errand.

Tough job, huh?

Maybe you'd like it if I put somebody
else in your place and you'd go back to

being a disc jockey. Stop threatening
me, Alvin. See?

It's been decided.

Someone's got to be killed.

Or is it this time?

You're not going to believe this.

Jock Jablonski.

Be worth about $10,000.

Maybe more.

Albert, he's an officer in our own
union.

Shit. You know he's a communist?

He ain't a communist, Albert.

Now, he knows too much. If he gets
elected... Is this got approval?

All the way.

I got an idea that might be good. What's
that?

My little girl's married to a guy who's
got a million guns and he knows

everyone. Why don't you let me talk it
over? Maybe I can get it done for you.

All right.

What makes you think he'll do it? He
needs the money.

And he listens to my little girl. He
respects her.

Sounds good.

Give me Daddy.

Daddy!

Hi, baby.

Did you miss me?

Mm-hmm.

Daddy, I'm so happy.

Yeah, I tried to call.

Oh, I know. The phone's been out.

You short on money?

Mm-mm. No, no. Paul had the bill in his
pants pocket. He forgot to mail it. But

phone company's supposed to switch us
back on.

Maybe we're even on there. I'll see.

Down by five.

Hey, uh,

what you been doing?

Well, howdy, Paul.

We've been waiting for you.

Have a hard day, honey lamb?

You come for any reason, Silas?

Something you wanted to say to me?

I came to offer you a job.

A chance to make some pretty easy money.

Maybe get that pension you keep talking
about for your daddy.

Well, that sounds too good to be true,
Silas.

What's that?

What do I got to do to make all these
good things happen?

Well, you got to have somebody killed.

I thought so.

Don't act like it's such a surprise.

You'll never see when your daddy's
around.

Tonight I do.

Tonight

I

want to be your love slave.

Yeah, I got my clothes on.

It's because I'm your love slave.

I'm so proud of you.

I'm going to do that job for Daddy.

And we're going to get enough money to
get out of here.

Oh, fuck that pickle.

Was that that bad?

Well, that kind of hurts.

You never did this for

anyone else, right?

Mm-hmm.

Get out there and vote.

Help me win this election.

Thanks.

We're just going out over what happened
here today. No, it ain't.

Ezra will tell you why.

This is the UNW.

You're not too much of a lawyer to know
that we only talk about the fights we

win, not the ones we lose.

Right, Ezra?

You know minors, Jock.

So do you.

I could almost hate you for this, Jock.

This union's so far gone, we ain't never
gonna get it back.

All we're gonna get for our troubles is
dead.

This one's gonna be different.

We're going to win this one.

I'm 53 years old.

If you'd been doing this 10 years ago,
it'd be different.

Well, it ain't 10 years ago. It's now.

Look, Jock, I just can't do this.

Don't ask me to explain.

I just ain't going to be able to make
it.

I'm sorry.

I'm tired of fighting.

See, we know what he looks like.

Daddy says you can kill him right in
D.C., in the parking lot of the national

office, if you want.

And he's got a son named Chip who lives
in Maryland. He stays there during the

week, so you can kill him there.

Or we got a map to his house in
Pennsylvania. If you want, you can kill

him there.

Well, if it's so easy, why don't they
just do it themselves?

Well, because they can't.

If they need somebody, nobody knows.

You know, like a man of mystery.

Like you.

And you don't have to do anything,
really, except get paid.

You know so many people.

Now, all you have to do is hire a
couple, get them cheap, and then we'll

keep the rest of the money for us.

You don't have to shoot or anything.

I'm not afraid to shoot, you know.

I know.

But you don't have to if you don't want
to.

Just find someone.

I'll help you.

I'm going to be behind you every step of
the way.

And so is the union, my daddy said.

One hundred percent.

That felt so good.

Before.

Crack your window, will you, V? Why?

You smell like diarrhea or something.

Hey, I can't make ass or elbow out of
this fucking map. How are we going to

find this place?

Don't worry, Madden, you get paid to
shoot. Not to think.

Well, then God damn it, give me
something to shoot at.

You had us waiting for fucking hours in
that goddamn parking lot in Washington,

D.C., like a bunch of goddamn assholes.
Then the motherfucker don't even show

up. You sure you know how to get there?

Don't worry, we'll get there.

Maybe we better ask directions.

Yeah, that's real smart.

We're going to kill a guy and we ask
directions.

But we can't kill him if we can't find
him.

I've written some news pitches for you,
pal.

Oh, yeah?

I'm getting a little more liberal every
time out.

I don't feel like myself sometimes.

You've set the men on fire. We've got to
keep up with them.

Ready to see him?

Anytime.

I'm going to get a hangover.

You're supposed to drink. You're a
writer.

And a damn good one, too.

You could have been anything you wanted,
Peg.

Here you are, stuck with me.

Well, it's been just torture all the
way, I'll tell you.

I'll go get the speeches.

We can't work.

We can't work in these mines without a
real union.

It's like starting over.

It's like starting over.

What do you boys want?

I got it!

Uh, sorry to bother you, sir. We were
told maybe you could help us find jobs.

We're miners.

We're from West Virginia. Oh, West
Virginia. I guess I can help you down

there. Good thing you don't need my help
in Kentucky.

Use my name in Harlan County, you could
get shot.

Is that a friend of yours?

Who?

I don't know who that is.

Where's your car?

Well, we don't got one, neither of us.

We hitchhiked here.

Okay, you wait here and I'll get you the
name of somebody that can help you in

West Virginia.

Well, thank you, sir.

They have the wrong address.

Yeah, come on in.

Hi, baby.

I got ten more pole waters. Oh, good.

Terrific. Thanks, then.

Can I tell you something?

Sure.

You won't tell anyone.

Not Daddy.

Listen, if I told your father half the
things you've told me, he'd be living in

the nut house.

He's a very conservative guy.

I'm scared.

I'm sorry, but I am.

Just knowing how many people hate him,
what kind of men they are.

That comes with the territory.

But even Daddy's frightened.

He is.

I can tell.

When I told him I wanted to go to Ohio
with him, he got this look on his face.

And he said no, that I should go back to
work now.

That it was important to make an
independent life for myself.

Yeah, but that's Jock. That's what he
believes in.

I don't understand.

He was talking, you know, giving me
advice.

As if he wasn't going to be around
anymore.

You're going to win, Dad.

Here, here.

I don't know.

I guess we got a chance.

Oh, it'll be a landslide.

Tony Boyle can fix it in his favor.

He's done it before.

Well, we thought of that.

We got poll watchers lined up, and if
the government can't keep this election

straight, do it ourselves, right?

You'll see that. You'll beat Boyle hands
down.

What do you think, Mark?

I don't know.

It's on the grapevine.

Tony's going to beat you pretty bad.

How bad?

You know how this stuff is done?

In the UMW.

We play it rough.

When you were with Boyle.

What did you play, Pop?

Are you judging me?

Should I?

What the hell do you think I've been
doing all these years?

What do you think this is about?

This isn't church.

It isn't law school.

Don't get sensitive on me.

Daddy. Hello, baby.

How are you?

Daddy, everything's going wrong.

What's wrong?

Tell me the worst.

There ain't no worst.

You think it's easy trying to kill
somebody?

They've been up there seven times
already, Daddy. Seven.

Have you been up there that many times?

Look, if you think this is easy, forget
it.

Paul, I never said it was easy.

Not even getting the money squared away
was easy.

We had to pay out to 23 retired miners
and each one of them had to kick it back

to us Supposed to be political action
money Right now it's tucked away an

envelope for you Once you get the job
done

There's a lot of work getting that money
cleaned up all right all right look

I need some of that money One of my boys
shot his girlfriend and he needs bail

The killer no

She's hurt.

Well, she's kind of in a coma, but once
she wakes up, she won't press charges.

I guarantee it.

What are you looking at?

Don't tell me how to do my job.

You think I'm some kind of loser or
something?

You never had any faith in me.

You made Annette feel the same way.

Look, I just want the job done, Paul.

There's an awful lot riding on it.

Penny, what is wrong with the of me?

Tablecloths don't belong in there.

I'm too young for this movie.

It'll be over soon.

I know. Just six more rug cleaning
commercials to go.

Oh, wait up. Wait.

I'll be up in a minute. Okay.

What the hell happened? You didn't
shoot. Bad setup.

We never even checked to see how this
thing fires through window. The glass

would change the way you're supposed to
aim.

Man, that's it. I ain't going through
this shit no more. I quit. All right.

You can be damn sure you're not seeing a
penny of the money, not one red cent.

I don't give a fucking shit. I could
have made more goddamn money robbing

houses and all the goddamn time we
wasted. Hey, your decision.

Go back pissing and moaning, trying to
get back in. You're out. You're out.

That's it.

Man, are you going to be fucking sorry.

Michael? Hello, Mr.

Jablonski. Haven't seen you in a while.

Haven't been around.

Formula Scotch, will you, please?

I hear what you're doing, Mr. Yabonsky.
I wish you luck. Thanks.

Tony, Ellen.

Hey, Jack.

What a surprise.

How you been doing?

Oh, I've been doing well.

And the campaign goes better every day.

I'm going to have your ass on this,
Tony.

If not this time around, then the next.

You know that, don't you?

Well, that's how it goes, Jock.

Democracy in action.

I, for one, I'm behind that a thousand
percent.

Michael, Mr.

Yablonski's money's no good in here.

The jock's going to win this thing,
Ezra.

Looks very good.

You're going to win today.

You should have no trouble counting up a
very, very impressive victory.

Nothing too obvious.

Very, very impressive.

So you got more to say to me?

Listen to me, Tony Boyle.

You can't lose today. That's been
arranged.

Look, I know how angry you've been at
Jablonski.

If you've made any plans to talk to
anybody about standing in his way, I

think you could reconsider.

Call it off.

No thanks, pal.

You had enough of your man.

the numbers come in. What do you think,
Mark?

I'm very confident.

Well, I would like to propose a toast.

Here's to the man who started
everything.

No matter what happens tonight, Pop, it
just

doesn't matter.

Oh, let's not go crazy now.

I think it matters a little.

Do you want me to get that one, honey?

That'll be Washington.

Maybe, Bill, I think we got some
returns.

Now, around here, they were standing in
line to vote. You gotta know that's a

good sign.

What?

Oh, Jesus.

They didn't exactly use the delicate
touch on this one, did they?

You're goddamn right.

That's right.

You tell them I'm in this to the end,
that today's election wasn't the end.

Bad?

How bad?

A joke.

That's how bad.

But I know how this game is played.

That son of a bitch and Tony screw the
wrong man.

Congratulations, Tony.

Oh, beautiful.

And to you guys.

I couldn't have done it without you, you
know, you thieving, lying bastards.

Your leadership, Tony.

Now,

Ezra. What's the matter? You don't look
good.

I'm all right, Tony.

You did a fine job.

Tony,

it's for you.

It's important.

It's Albert Pass.

I'll be back.

Yes, what is it, Albert?

Tony, I just found this out. I figured
you'd want to know.

What'd you find out? Keep talking.

Jablonski is going to contest the
election. He's going to what?

He got nothing on us. They don't have
nothing yet, but he's made a petition to

the National Labor Relations Board.

He's calling for a complete
investigation of the election.

Yes, he has.

I'll handle this.

Look,

they don't care.

They don't care if you kill a whole
family.

They don't care if you run them down in
a truck or an airplane.

Just kidding!

Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas to you.

I hope I'm not disturbing you. Oh, no,
you're always welcome in this house.

Look who's here.

Merry Christmas, Esther.

How about some eggnog?

I just wanted to tell you something.

You didn't lose my local. You won it,
Jock. You won it big.

482 for you.

57 for Boyle.

The men voted for you.

And Tony Boyle stole them away.

Those are the real figures.

And I'll testify to that.

Jeez, what a Christmas present.

Excuse me, honey.

We've got it.

We've got the proof.

Let me have a look at that. God damn, I
never thought it would happen.

Have to make not. Merry Christmas, Ezra.

Thank you.

You know, my mother was in a motorcycle
accident before I was born.

She was out cold for two weeks.

You know, it was a miracle I was born
something like that.

It's not to boast, but it shows I was
meant for something special.

We're coming to Clarksville.

Here's where we usually stop for gas.

How many times do you guys make the
trip?

Once we divide up that money, I'm gonna
take you to, like... Ah, fuck.

Did either of you ever put your hand...
I mean, your whole fucking hand inside a

lady. Listen, sonny, I ain't fucking
shot my old lady. She didn't even press

charges.

Shit.

Tell me about no putting my hand up to
some woman.

Good night, honey. Good night.

Good night, baby.

Sure, I'm glad I got to home.

That's the trouble with challenging the
election, the time it takes to do it all

over again.

You know, it's hard to be without you
for even one night.

Supposed to be that way.

How much longer we got to wait?

You got to be patient in this business.

I still don't know what we're waiting
for. It will be easier when he's asleep.

Would you turn the fucking heater on
again?

It's fucking freezing.

Why is everybody crying to me? This
ain't my fault.

Look, we got a job to do.

And we got lots of important people
counting on us.

I mean, this ain't a TV set we're
stealing. Now, this is big, what we're

doing.

It'll be in history.

Yeah, well, whatever we do it's tonight.

I ain't never going through this shit
again

Let's not go over to Candy's New Year's
party tomorrow night.

Oh, we can't do that to the kids, honey.
Sure we can.

I'd like to spend it with you.

The way we used to before we started the
family, just you and me.

Life wasn't complicated then.

That would be nice.

I saved the present for you. You did?

A membership to the Smithsonian
Institute.

One for the National Gallery.

Season's tickets to the Washington
Theatre Company.

Chuck. It's for when we move to
Washington. And it's going to happen,

Peg, I promise you.

You lived in some pretty dreary places
with me.

Now you're gonna live the life you
deserve No places

dreary with you it's best thing that
ever happened to me

Just one more light.

Here we are.

Here.

Where are you going to be?

I stay here.

I always stay here.

Uh-uh.

Not tonight, you don't.

Claude told me about the time you pulled
out and he nearly killed himself chasing

you down.

You come in like everyone else or it's
no deal.

Okay.

So?

So he said he wouldn't kill no women.

Listen, if I kill all of them, do I get
all the money?

Yes. Every fucking cent, I swear it.

Okay, man, yeah, well... I

don't want to kill women that you ate.

I guess we gotta.

I mean, we can't let no witnesses,
right?

Okay, now both of you count to ten. And
then fire.

It's gotta be at the same time or else
someone's gonna...

Let's go.

In the course of my father's campaign,
those of us who loved him, we were

worried about him.

We thought we were prepared for the
worst, but we weren't.

We weren't prepared for anything like
this.

I want to thank you for being here
today.

My father never spoke of death, nor did
my mother or my sister.

But if they were here today, they would
probably say that the time for mourning

is past.

Now we must carry on with the fight.

And my brother and I want you to know
that if you want to go ahead and turn

this union around, just raise your hand,
and we'll go with you every step of the

way.

My father's spirit lives in this room.

The fight was on.

There's a new...

You can always find another way.
