How old was little Sarah Elizabeth?

She was just shy of a year.

Lined with blue velvet.

Yeah. Yeah, she'd like that.

-This'll do, Mr. Goodpasture.
-I'll give you some time.

-She'll rest easy in that.
-Yeah.

Poor little girl.

Do you think me
and Sarah Elizabeth.. .

...will recognize each other
when l get to heaven?

I suspect your brothers are taking
care of her, you'll recognize them.

They done murder.

They might not get there.

We need to go.

It's Ransom.

-You sent for me?
-Saddle the horses.

I got me a tip about. ..

...three good Christian Hatfields
we gonna apprehend.

We go now, cross the river quick,
they won't have time to hide.

I'll round up the men posthaste.

You coming?

-He will be.
-Yeah, come on!

-Brother.
-That's Tom Chambers, get him.

-What is this?
-His brothers. There he is, him too.

-You can't do this.
-Who's the next one?

What is this?

This is a house of God.

Ma'am.

Let's get out of here, boys.

What's all the ruckus?

Folks are celebrating
Mr. Phillips' success.

He hasn't caught Devil Anse yet.

He's poorly.

Got pleurisy.

Jim.

Ain't you a sorry sight.

-Want l should come back later?
-Speak your mind.

Phillips' gang raided services
at the Tug Fork church.

Seized Tom Chambers,
and the Mahon brothers.

Smacked Preacher Garrett
for no apparent reason.

Anse, they are shoving it in our face.

Yeah.

Any word from your man,
John B. Floyd?

Governor Windy ain't doing shit.

Too busy letting lawyers
get in his ear.

And getting his back up against this
New York muckraker's calling us. ..

...a savage mountain tribe.

It's up to us like always.

What do you propose?

Cut off the head of the snake.

Be awful treacherous
going after Frank Phillips.

He's got an army around him.

No, he's-- He's the fangs.

We gotta kill Randall McCoy.

I'm Attorney Perry Cline, Esquire.

I represent you
till the court deems it necessary...

...to appoint a public defender.

You think we got a better chance
if we keep you on as our lawyer?

Well, it's up to you.

I do know the circumstances
of the case better than anyone.

Yeah.

Now, these stamped envelopes
are to contact your family members.. .

...to assure them
you're being well-treated.

And to arrange payment
of my retainer.

It's $50 cash,
receivable at my office.

You killed my sons.

Your murdering sons.

Not guilty till proved innocent.
Men like you who deserved a fair trial.

I pray you hang.

I will supply the lumber for the gallows
and I will tie the knot on your rope.

And when your neck snaps,
I will rejoice...

...as you are sent to boil
in eternal damnation's hellfire.

A merry Christmas to you too, sir.

You all right, Ma?

You hear that?

Hear what?

They'll come from over there.

Who will?

Hatfields.
They'll come from over there.

Ma, Hatfields. ...

Ma, Hatfields hiding out
from Bad Frank.

They ain't gonna come across
this side of the river.

Let's go inside, huh?

No one's coming tonight.

It's not tonight l speak of.

We're hunted like animals
by hired trash.

Family and friends kidnapped
and murdered...

...the law stood by.

Law's done nothing.

Even so, if there was anything... .

Anything l had that by giving it...

... I could end this bloody struggle,
I would give it gladly.

I would give my life
if it would end this.

He would not.

What l will not give. ..

...is one more drop
of this family's blood.

So tonight. ..

...this New Year's Eve. ..

...we end this forever.

I's with you, Mr. Hatfield.

You ain't coming, Billy. ..

...you ain't ready.

Thank the stars, l ain't too late.

Lots of time, Johnse.

We all just waiting for your pa
to finish his coughing fit.

We can be there by dawn...

...make our approach
with the sun at our backs.

Time of the morning, the day it is,
they won't expect nothing.

We harm no one we don't have to.

Once Randall sees how it is,
he'll surrender himself. ..

...to protect the others from harm.

We take him alive.

Thought we was getting rid of him.

Once Randall McCoy is extradited
as our prisoner-of-war. ..

...we execute him here,
in West Virginia.

The state where he committed
his crimes...

I'm not dizzy.

Stepped on a stone or something.

Yeah, l know.

We're still gonna get you to the doc.

-No, there's no time.
-You're too sick, Pa.

We can do this.

Okay. Damn.

Anse...

...it'd be a worthless trip...

...if you start coughing like that
and give us all away.

No one but Randall taken.

And him not harmed.

Him not harmed.

Or you answer to me.

All right, y'all, saddle up.

Go to bed, Anse, we'll get Randall.

Randall.

Wake up.

They're here.

What is it, Poppy?

-Get them children down.
-Get down. Get down. Go on, go on.

May hell be my heaven. ..

... I will kill any man
who goes back on me.

This powder will burn.

All right, as planned,
go on now, go on.

Pa said just Randall.

We take him back over the Tug
to West Virginia.

You think Randall McCoy's
gonna let himself get took live?

-We gotta try.
-Randall McCoy!

Your final day has dawned.

Save your family.

Surrender yourself.

-You hear me?
-Go on through the kitchen.

Your final day has dawned.

Jim. Jim.
We got all sides covered now.

Every door, window, and rat hole.

Ain't nobody gonna get out
without us seeing them.

-Who's got the back?
-Cotton Top.

Johnse's with him.

All right, I'll go check them out.

We got your whole farm
surrounded, McCoy.

-Might as well come on out.
-Get down.

-Do it now and we spare your family.
-I seen that Jim Vance.

Cap Hatfield and others
out of sight taking cover.

-How many?
-Fifteen, probably more.

-Go on, go on.
-Get behind and sit.

Go on.

Don't shoot unless they do.
Or someone charges.

Can't get a good shot noways.

Sorry.

-I got this tune stuck in my head.
-Where's Johnse?

He said to watch the back
is all l know.

Don't let no one out.

Watch the back.

Randall McCoy...

...come on out and face the day. ..

...or else I have to burn
your house down.

You want your little ones
consumed in fire?

They're all right. Don't listen.

Their wee bodies a-hissing
and a-steaming?

Randall!

-Go out the back. Run for the woods.
-I gotta go out there.

If I can get a showdown with Jim,
maybe the others will back down.

Randall, he'll shoot you down
like it was nothing.

I'm begging you, husband,
slip out the back while you can.

If they know you're gone,
they'll leave us be.

Cotton Top, what's that?

Hold your fire!

Get down. Get down.

Hold on!

Goddamn it,
I ain't gave the order yet.

Hold on!

I said, hold your fire!

-What the hell?
-Cotton started shooting.

Must've seen McCoy
stick his head out.

Well, go find out.

Hey, my pa's not here!

He stayed over in Pikeville
last night!

I said for him to come out!

He's not here!

Ain't nobody in here but me,
except women and childrens!

Randall!

We're all waiting for you!

He's not here!

Heavenly Father,
spare my family and smite my enemy.

I beg of you,
have mercy in our hour of need.

Have mercy, Lord Jesus.

He.. ..

We said let nobody out the back.

Nobody out the back.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

Just courtesy is what is it.

-You son of a bitch!
-Get back here.

-We gotta get the fire down.
-We need more water.

Use the buttermilk.

You're burning woman and children,
you coward!

What kind of devil are you,
Devil Anse?

Alifair!

Now you listen to me, you get Ma
and the kids out the back, all right?

Mama, come on, let's go.

Go on, get them out!

Mind the babies, Alifair, l'll be along.

Ma. Go, go, go!

Don't stop.

Go on. Go on, Fanny.

-You gotta go back inside.
-Keep going.

Get back inside.

It ain't allowed.

I let them-- l let them out the back.

You got one. That's good enough.

It ain't allowed.

I want Randall McCoy!

Well, you got his son!

Poppy. Poppy.

Hey. Fanny.

Where's your mother?

Alifair got hurt.

Hold your fire.

What the hell are you doing?

Crazy stupid bitch.

I was having a dream.. .

...when Sally said, "They're here."

I heard Jim Vance yelling:

"Randall McCoy,
come out and face the day."

It was me they was after.

Can you lean your head back?
I need to look in your eyes.

I told Sally, "l gotta go out there."

She said, "You do, they'll kill you.

Try and get out the back."

"Me and the children,
we'll be safe when you're gone."

-I want Rosie.
-I know, honey. It's gonna be all right.

-I want my Rosie.
-I know, sweetheart.

I let out and made for the woods.

Then l heard the shooting.

After a while, l seen the smoke.

Then l saw the children.

Children told me...

...Alifair was leading them away
from the fire when they shot her.

I took them deeper in the woods.

We knelt and we prayed.

When I got back, they was gone.

The house was on fire.

I seen the devil in that fire.

He was walking around,
laughing at me.

-Mr. Phillips.
-Plain as day, he was laughing.

You gotta see this.

Sally was laying on the ground
next to Calvin.

I picked her up and I held her
in my arms for I don't know how long.

And when l next looked up,
he was here.

Your son Jim is on his way
to get the kids.

You and Mrs. McCoy
will stay in my house.

I prayed to a merciful God
who showed us no mercy.

His will, Randall, not ours, be done.

This is his will?

My children dead, and my wife hurt,
and my house burned?

Where was God?

If this is his will,
what kind of God is that?

-What kind of God is that?
-Let's get you here on the wagon.

Shot a McCoy girl.

Looks like she seen a devil.

Whatever we want now.

Rules are done.

Hey, Charles.

What?

You know, looking at this family,
peacefully feeding...

...reminds a body
why we kill McCoys.

Excuse me?

Sit down, sit down.

It didn't turn out so well.

Tell me.

That goddamn half-wit, Cotton turd--

Hey.

Oh, this probably ain't fit
for the ears of young'uns.

Take your brothers. Let's go.

Go. Shut the door behind you.

Just say it.

Our foray against old Randall.. .

...was interfered with
by family members.

While ole Randall's running scared
like a jackrabbit.. .

...his heir, Calvin.. .

...come charging us,
shooting with deadly intent.

Had no choice but to kill him.

You said "family."

One of ole Randall's older daughters...

...she'd gotten away
and got killed accidental.

There may have been others.

We tried to burn them out.

All unforeseen, Anse.

You know, your boy Cap,
he done good now.

And Randall got away.

Yup.

And what of Randall's wife?

She run mad.

Barreled straight at me
in her dishabille.

And?

Yeah, l. ...

I laid her in the back of the ear
with my rifle butt.

I believe she's done.

What do we do now, Jim?

Kill them all?

Reverend, what is it?

Ma'am, l have some terrible news.

You couldn't tell me what you
and your butchering family. ..

-...did this time, could you?
-Stop it. Stop it.

-Could you?
-Goddamn it, stop it!

Horrible. Horrible! Just horrible.

How could any man on God's
green earth do something so horrible?

-It wasn't me.
-How?!

Goddamn it, Uncle Jim and them was
trying of get rid of Randall McCoy.. .

...so all this fighting gets stopped.

Their intentions was right.

Oh, their intentions.
Like you wasn't a part of it.

Even if l was there,
don't mean I participated in any killing.

Like people said l was on
that firing squad that killed Tolbert--

You were on that firing squad.
Everybody knows!

I raised my gun, I missed on purpose.
Last night was no different.

You were there.

You were.

You helped Jim Vance murder
my entire family.

Oh, hell, no, I didn't.
You know, it made me sick.

You know, if l knew
they was gonna do such.. .

... I'd have never gone.

It was that weak-brained Cotton Top
shot Alifair.

Is Jim Vance celebrating now?

Oh, hell no, he ain't.

Pa sent him and Cap over
Thacker Mountain to lay low a while.

He's a-hunting deer
up Big Muncie Creek. ..

...trying to put food
on the goddamn table.

Because our family
can't even go to a store.. .

...without some McCoy bounty hunter
ambushing us.

Come on, hey, hey.

You know what?
Let's pack the hell up.

Let's pack the hell up. Let's go west.
Just get. ...

Get away from all this grief, misery.

It's tearing us apart.

Go away with me, Nance?

Let's go, let's go.

I'll be in Pikeville. ..

...with a real man.

Me and Frank Phillips. ..

...we're getting married.

T.C. Crawford
from the New York World.

I have a few questions
about the origin of this feud.

No feud, not from how I see it.

Well, how would you describe it, sir?

A many-year campaign of swindling
and murder against my family.

By Anse Hatfield and his clan?

Devil Anse Hatfield.

Governor Wilson of West Virginia
has said.. .

...the men arrested for your sons'
murders were taken illegally.

There was an error of paperwork,
our courts will adjudicate.

My house burned
was no paper error.

No court can resolve my daughter,
my son shot dead...

...my wife so grievous injured.

Atrocities that a just God
would not allow.

May we take a photograph, sir?

Your weapon.

I want you to hold it, please.

Our readers will really appreciate this.

-Can you hold it please?
-Hold the gun up a little bit higher.

It's all right, Randall.
Shows we're serious about justice.

You look righteous, sir.

There's going to be a flash.

Sally, you still getting
them headaches?

You all right?

Hey, Mama.

-Hey, it's Roseanna.
-Rosie?

Anything you need?

She's all right.

Oh, Mama.

I know where you can find
Jim Vance.

Yeah? Tell me about it.

Don't alter your pace,
don't look about.

There's a man concealed
in them trees up ahead of us.

-Who is he, Phillips?
-Most likely.

Should've killed that goddamn fox
years ago.

Look here, Cap, when all this starts,
you not being dead, you break downhill.

-You understand, son?
-Yes, sir.

Skedaddle!

Right here, it's him.

Run, Cap, run!

No sense the both of us eating
these bastards' bullets!

Get down.

Jim!

Goddamn it, boy! I said, get!

Or else l'll come back from hell
and tan your hide.

Jim!

One down.

Watch out.

Give me that damn rifle.

Sidle round.

Shit. Son of a bitch.

Leave him be, he's mine!

I'm terrible sorry, Howls Jr.

So sorry.

I do believe
this is the end of the line.

I'll be right behind you, boy.
Right behind you.

Don't shoot. Not yet.

Time to meet your maker.

Which way you gonna go,
Uncle Jim?

You got my damn boots all dusty.

It's Cap, he's hurt.

Mr. Hatfield, Mr. Hatfield.

Mr. Hatfield, Cap got shot.

Jesus, what happened?
Get away from him.

-Posse got Uncle Jim.
-All right.

Bad Frank shot him in an ambush.

Killed his dog, shot me.
There ain't no lead in there, Mama.

-All right. All right.
-I'm all right.

You say they got Jim, where is he?

Where is he, Cap?

I'm sorry, they-- He's dead, Pa.

They took his body.

All right, all right, all right.

-Sorry, l'm sorry.
-Uncle Jim.

Where Johnse at? He at his cabin?

Bad Frank is gonna
probably hit him next.

I'll get some boys to ride by Johnse,
make sure he's all right.

Take him to the stream
to wash off that blood and dirt.

I'll get some tincture and bandages.

How'd he know where he was, Pa?

Your snoring used to keep me awake.

Now it's the silence.

My mind won't rest.

You're thinking about Uncle Jim?

I always thought
someday l'd have to.. ..

Have to kill him myself.

Well.. .

...it's a miracle Cap wasn't killed too.

Only two people knew
where Jim and Cap had gone.

Where they'd be that day.

Who?

Me. ..

...and Johnse.

Well, how do you know that?
Anybody could have said something.

-I know. I know.
-No, Cap or Jim could have--

I know because I made sure.

Johnse's no Judas.

No, he's not,
but people have died, Levicy.

You can't say
you didn't have a part in that?

Now l'll have to live with. ...

But we both know our boy's
not a careful person...

...especially around women.

What do you intend to do?

-Get some sleep.
-Anderson?

You should too.

Yeah, good boy.

Hey, Daddy.

How long you been standing there?

A while.

Where were you the other day?

Oh, I was up in Boone County
making a delivery.

You know.

You going to work this morning?

Thought you and me
might go fishing.

Today?

When you're finished there,
saddle my horse.

All right.

What are you doing?

Me and Johnse
are gonna have a talk.

I have to know what that means.

You think I mean him harm?

I need to hear otherwise.

I will hear you say it.

I'm taking him fishing, Levicy.

So long, big brother.

You sure you don't wanna fish?

I'm going to.

Remember the last time you brought
me out to this old fishing hole?

-I don't recall that.
-I do.

I know because I was in that
willow tree over there up on that limb.

You recall what you said to me?

I do. You said if l fell in,
I was gonna scare the fish.

And once l was in, chances of
you getting me out weren't good...

...on account that you were not partial
to cold water.

You recall having said that?

Well, I believe l just coaxed a laugh
out of you, Pa.

Goddamn, I don't remember
the last time l seen that.

It's too bad about you
and the McCoy girl.

Which one?

The one that ran off with the man
that killed your Uncle Jim.

You recall pretty good, Johnse.

Anything you wanna say to me?

I know l shouldn't have trusted her,
I know that for damn sure.

You know, I hate all this.

I always have.

I think all l ever wanted to do
was play.

Just laugh and play.

It seems like nobody around here
ever laughs anymore.

Except maybe when a McCoy
gets maimed or killed.

You know, it must be a trial for you,
Daddy.

Me not being like you.

You are who you are, Johnse.

No, what l mean is,
everybody looks up to you.

I mean, even your older brothers.

You know, there ain't... .

There ain't nobody to look up to me.

Hell, there are those that say
Cotton Top's of more use.

I don't know how to be in this family.

I mean, I got... .

I got all the memories, you know,
I know all that's happened. I just.. ..

I don't have the hate
that comes with being a Hatfield.

You know, I look up at that sky, Pa,
and those clouds going by.

I know they're headed somewhere
different than what we got here.

I seen these pictures
and these stories about Oregon.

Man, they got these millions of trees
to be logged.

I mean, even more than here.

Wild rivers
with fish as long as your arm.

No McCoys to shoot at
or get shot by.

It's heaven on earth.

That's what that is.

That's where l aim to go.

You won't outrun yourself in Oregon,
Johnse.

Can l ask you a question?

If I would have fell in that day. ..

...scared those fish...

...would you have let me drown?

There's a big old bear.

Johnse bagged him
when he come up behind us.

I never seen him.

That boy always did have
quick reflexes.

He just too damn handsome
for his own good.

You know, he's a lot like his daddy,
except for the handsome part.

Boy's nothing like me.

What brings you out
this frosty morn?

Well.. .

... I got news about our appeal.

Governor Windy's taking it all the way
to the United States Supreme Court.

Now we gonna be in the law books...

...maybe get our boys out of jail
back in their homes where they belong.

Anybody who knows anything
about jurisprudence. ..

...says there ain't no doubt.

Only one thing gonna resolve this,
big brother...

...and it ain't Miss Jurisprudence.

I don't know
what you're planning here...

...but all this damn bloodshed
and killing's gotta stop.

Uncle Jim was the last straw.

I'm turning myself in.

You insane?

Then blaggards will shoot you down.

I already sent word to Perry Cline.

Perry Cline.

You think that skunk
will keep his word?

It's done, Anse. l'm gonna fight
this thing the best way l know how.

-I'm gonna fight it in a courtroom.
-Yeah, in a Kentucky courtroom.

But not with a damn gun.

Well, guns never failed me, Wall.

Not like judges and lawyers.

It's gonna be the way it's always been
tween you and me, little brother.

You're gonna handle things your way
and I'm gonna do them my way.

Wall, I never told you about something
I said to Ellison.

Maybe the last thing
he remembered...

...maybe not,
but it's haunted me ever since.

So right now l don't wanna... .

Right now l don't wanna say
something to you I'm gonna regret.

You ain't got no cause
to worry about that, Anse.

Get along there, boy.

Hey.

I'll be seeing you
right after l leave Miss Jurisprudence.

Go on.

Get over here.

Look who's coming to town.
Oh, my Lord.

Look who's here.

My name is Justice Wall Hatfield...

... I've surrendered myself
on a Kentucky warrant. ..

...for due process of the law.

Hatfield, you are under arrest.

I'm turning myself in, Phillips,
you'll collect no bounty on me.

Give me some of that, crazy lady.

Don't you spit at me.

No, I ain't gonna do that.
No, not now.

Hey, you mind if I borrow my boss
from you, ma'am?

Logan Banner. Says Hatfield's
getting ready for war again.

Buying every hardware store
in three states out of guns and ammo.

-Hillbilly dirt rag. Means nothing.
-You need a drink.

Mr. Cline, what's your pleasure?

Already got a fine libation.

I understand we're celebrating
more than the capture of Wall Hatfield.

Meet Mrs. Frank Phillips.

Congratulations.

Mr. Phillips?

Mr. Phillips. A mob of Hatfields
is forming over at Mate Creek.

Devil Anse himself at the lead.

Looks like they're a-fixing
to ride this way.

Hatfield's busting his relatives
out of jail. We gotta stop them, Frank.

Round up the deputies.
Enlist every able-bodied man you can.

Yes, sir. Come on.

-Let's go.
-Come on.

About time l see Devil Anse.

We got this, Mr. Cline, we got this.

-Kill them.
-Yes, ma'am.

Every single one.

-Let's go.
-Yeah.

All right, let's go.

The law be damned.
Hatfields be damned.

God be damned.
Damn you all to perdition.

Get down.

Hatfield!

McCoy!

Hatfield!

Fire!

Hatfield!

Get your old man back.
He gonna be the first one killed.

Get over here.

We need more men.

-Yeah!
-Trying to get yourself killed?

-Leave me be!
-I need help.

Kill them all!

Go.

-You all right there, Pop?
-Yeah, go on.

He's shot.

Damn it!

Let's go!

Goddamn it.

Here! He's here!

Come back.

Come back and fight!

Mine.

I didn't mean to.

Get out of here.

Billy.

Find cover and stay put.

-Go. Go.
-Go.

It's a trap! lt's a--

Hey! Get back!

Get everybody back to the horses!

Anse. We gotta get out of here,
Anse.

They're flanking us on both sides.

Son.

-Cap! Cap!
-What?

Pass the word, we're pulling out!

-We're pulling out!
-Move!

Joe! Help me here with Billy.

I'm taking him home to his mama.

Let's go!

They're quitting the field.

-Let's go.
-Come on.

Oh, call out to him.

When he stands up,
I'll blow his head off.

Hold off!
We got us a prisoner. They don't.

I give up.

Means we won the day. Go get him!

We won.

I won.

Bless the baby Jesus.

Hey.

Stand up.

Come on, get.

Just a few steps more.

Doctor said it was good for you
to walk.

-The room is not right.
-I know, Mama.

It's Perry Cline's house,
that's why it looks different.

-Here.
-I don't like Perry Cline.

I know, Mama.

After I die...

... I would like my body destroyed
by electricity.

Can you remember that, Roseanna?

Yes, Mama.

I don't like Perry Cline.

I know, Mama.

Uncle Randall?

Randall, we're here.

The hell are you doing here?

Frank Phillips asked me
to take you to Mr. Cline's house.

You disgust me.

How's your mother, Roseanna?

She's. ...

She's better in some ways.
She's not right yet.

I hear tell you're sick as well.

Yeah.

We was friends, Nancy.

Why'd you hurt me the way you did?

You hurt yourself taking up
with Johnse.

Me marrying him
just saved you a whole lot of pain.

You love him?

I never did.

I hate him.

Just like all the demon Hatfields.

Me and Johnse
was never nothing against you.

It was just plain old revenge.

Swore to killing Hatfields
when l was young.

Revenge is all l got inside of me.

Good news, judge.

The supreme court has ruled,
incorrectly, I believe.. .

...that taking you people without
West Virginia's consent was illegal.

So we're going free?

-You hear that? We're going free.
-Selkirk...

...a lawyer's smile promises
more to come.

Court also ruled, properly this time,
that since you're already in Kentucky...

...as long as you're legally re-arrested,
you can be brought to trial.

Mr. Phillips.

Gentlemen, y'all under arrest.

It's your daughter Roseanna.

I'm coming up behind you.

I'm standing next to you.

You see me, Poppy?

You hear my voice?

I hear you.

Dead children.

A dead grandchild.

A mad wife.

Anybody would think you'd embrace
a still living daughter.

When I was a little girl,
you once told me I was your favorite.

I lived on that for years.

Just that tiny bit of approval...

...made me believe
I could do anything in this world.

Because for all your preaching,
and all your praying...

...in our house, you were God.

Here, let me take that for you.

You're looking particularly pale today.

You well?

Yeah.

Thanks for asking.

Roseanna.

You know, my offer of years ago...

...it still stands.

Oh, Perry, you don't want me,
I'm all used up.

Don't say that. l do want you.

I just wanna make you happy.
Take care of you.

I should probably
just do these dishes up and....

You know, I've always loved you.

Roseanna. Roseanna!

Roseanna. Randall!

Doc! Roseanna!

-Roseanna.
-She's not moving! She fell!

I don't understand.
Randall, get in here!

-Oh, my God!
-Roseanna, can you hear me?

-She's bleeding!
-Oh, no, no.

What's wrong with her?

There, there, Mother.

It'll be fine, just fine.

Doc Rutherford says this hospital
in Lexington can help you.

You must let your heart break.

Only when the most innocent part
of you suffers, can there be change.

Else, nothing remains of you.

-She able to talk today, Randall?
-She speaks.. .

...but her words carry no meaning.

An improvement on all the wailing
and rabbit noises.

You're not sending me away
to get better.

You're sending me away
so you can go to hell with Perry Cline.

Is it true that l murdered her
in the first degree?

Alifair McCoy.

You murdered her.

Did anyone tell you to say this?

You said to say that no one did.

You mean no one told you
to say anything?

Only that I murdered her
in the first degree.

I beg the court...

...my client's nothing but a poor
simple-minded fool.

Born that way.

Now, he admits his guilt...

...and throws himself
on the mercy of the court.

Wall Hatfield...

...life in prison.

Selkirk McCoy. ..

...life in prison.

Alex Messer. ..

...life in prison.

"Cotton Top" Ellison Mounts.. .

...death by hanging.

That's fine because Devil Anse,
Cap, and all of them. ..

...are gonna come at midnight
all armed and terrible.

Riding dark horses with lightening
hooves that don't never die.

They won't let me hang.

I'm letting him out.

Give me the keys. l'm letting him out.

Only Hatfield they're hanging
is the one don't deserve it.

It's bad luck to hang--
It's bad luck to hang a half-wit.

No, that's an old wives' tale,
Randall.

Where is my justice? Where is it?

You know, you need to go home
and sober up some.

You... .

You get to live.. .

...while my sons,
my daughter rot in their grave.

I might as well let you out too.
Give me the goddamn keys.

Get him out of here.

Was there a point where one of us
could've give way.. .

...to stop all this nonsense?

Guess you can contemplate that.

You still got something left.

What do you want, Randall?

What do you want out of this life?

Just get through it.

If ever two men misunderstood
each other, it was us.

So when's it end?

When there's no blood left
to be spilled.

That way don't work, Randall.

We tried that way.

I'm thinking we go in the dead of night,
when the fog is thickest.

Five men, blazing away
in the north end. ..

...causing a commotion
like Pikeville's never seen.

We charge that jail
with everybody else--

Nobody's busting anybody
out of jail.

What?

Uncle Wall, your big brother,
got life in--

Wall wouldn't go anyways.

Fighting it with appeals,
still thinks he'll get out legal.

What about Cotton Top?

Been telling every goddamn newspaper
in the country we're coming for him.

When Cotton Top's hanged. ..

...it'll take away
the McCoy bloodlust.

When he's hanged?

So Cotton's our Judas goat?

Somebody's gotta bend to stop it.

Randall can't. ..

...so it's gotta be me.

Pa, you done enough.

It's time l take over.

No, I don't want that for you.

Aren't you listening to me?

Cap, you gonna... .

You're gonna have children
one day.. .

...and your children,
they're not gonna care...

...about our old grudges and slights
from long ago.

And their children. ...

Hell, their children
won't even know about it.

It's time for us to move on, son.

I got it.

Damn. Damn it.

Levicy, you all right?

I miss Johnse.

I miss our son.

I sometimes wonder how different
things might have turned out...

...had I allowed him
to marry the first one.

Well.. .

...Roseanna was a McCoy.

We had to do
what we thought was right.

Let me see. Let me see.

Let's get out of here.

I wanna get this thing over with
before we go to war again.

Tell me again, what's so important
we had to dress up the girls. ..

...and bring them all the way here
for something you can hardly see?

This is history.

Hatfields and McCoys are famous.

Famous for what?

Killing each other.

Come here.

Let's gather over here.

Most of you have done
some trapping.. .

...and on occasion found a winter fox
that's left his leg behind him in a trap.

So it is with us on this difficult day.

Leave our leg behind...

...or die in the trap.

Got a letter here that we're gonna
send to the newspapers.. .

...and I wanted you to all hear it first.

"l do not.. ..

I do not wish
to keep the old feud alive.

And I suppose everybody,
like myself...

...is tired of the names
Hatfield and McCoy...

...in border warfare in time of peace.

The war spirit in me has abated.. .

...and I sincerely rejoice
at the prospect of peace.

I've devoted my life to arms...

...and we have undergone
a fearful loss. ..

...of noble lives
and valuable property.. .

...in this hateful struggle."

The Hatfields made me do it.

They hornswoggled me with love--

"We, being like Adam...

...not the first transgressors.. .

...and I propose to rest...

...in a spirit of peace."

-Thank you, ma'am.
-Obliged.

Sheriff, my name's Alexander.
I'm a big fan of yours.

Alexander. Well, thank you, son.

-Bad Frank dib right there.
-Thank you, sir.

Congratulations, Frank.

I read it, it's. ...

Yeah.

Well, I too, am to be congratulated,
meet Miss Karen Roes. ..

...she's from the Roes of Lexington.
She my fiancée.

They own half the county
and quite a stable of fine race horses.

You like them young, don't you, Cline?
You cradle-robbing snake.

You ignorant drunkard.

And this laughable pack of lies
is nothing but a waste of cheap paper.

You son of a bitch!

Come on!

Boss, boss. Easy, boss.

-Get out of here!
-Frank.

Boss. Boss.

I shall miss him.

Bad Frank could kill Hatfields
like no one else.

I'm coming after you, Devil Anse.
You hear me?

Do you hear me?

I'm coming to hell after you!

I baptize you in the name of
the Father, the Son. ..

...and the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

The Hatfields and the McCoys...

...without intention, have become part
of the American vocabulary.

Their epic feud, long fought
to separate their two families...

...has forever linked them together.

So much so that one name
cannot be spoken without the other.

In 2003, after 1 38 years,
a symbolic peace treaty was signed...

...by 60 descendants
from both families.

A final truce between the Hatfields
and the McCoys.
