00:00:00Me and Blue Boy was waiters before we come to El Dorado. Traveling waiters. We waited on tables
00:00:22all over Dixie. We waited on so many tables that every night my neck used to ache from all that
00:00:28bowing yasso this and yasso that and thank you sir and thank you ma'am. My head was like a yo-yo.
00:00:35But we wasn't no ordinary nigger waiters. We had plans. Blue Boy had his heart set on making us
00:00:41numbers kings. That's what we come to El Dorado for to set up a numbers bank. The numbers bank was Blue
00:00:48Boy's idea because what I know about numbers wouldn't have filled a gnats brain. Right now I'm sorry I ever
00:00:55come here. I walk with the lord every step of the way
00:01:06and we walk hand in hand to his kingdom
00:01:10My trust in him has kept me strong
00:01:21Through troubled years he loved me
00:01:25Yes, I know
00:01:30Yes, I know
00:01:31The good times come and go
00:01:34Jesus seems to understand them all
00:01:41And when my time
00:01:43And when my time
00:01:46What the earth has done
00:01:50To him I give my soul
00:01:56I see the lord
00:02:02And he's touching me
00:02:04And he's touching me
00:02:06I feel him calling softly
00:02:12Goodbye, goodbye
00:02:18To earthly woe
00:02:23He's coming
00:02:24To take me
00:02:26To take me home
00:02:27To take me home
00:02:28Yes, I know
00:02:31Yes, I know
00:02:33The good times come and go
00:02:37Jesus seems to wonder
00:02:39Jesus seems to wonder
00:02:41Understand them all
00:02:43And when my time
00:02:47What the earth has done
00:02:51To him I
00:02:53I give my soul
00:02:57I give my soul
00:03:17Blue boy, blue boy, how's your luck?
00:03:21Good enough to make a buck
00:03:23And if that buck can bring us more
00:03:27Keeps you from locking on the white man's door
00:03:31Blue boy, I say blue boy
00:03:36Blue boy, I say blue boy
00:03:41Me and blue boy commenced to saving
00:03:44Every penny we could rake and scrape
00:03:46And for too long we had saved a thousand dollars
00:03:49One thousand smackaroos
00:03:52Shit, we was nigger rich
00:03:54The minute we had laid away a thousand
00:03:57We was on the bus to el dorado
00:04:00I don't know how blue boy could sleep
00:04:02I was so scared I was shaking worse than a dog
00:04:05Shitting on a peach seed
00:04:11Blue kept making me nervous
00:04:13Saying how he was gonna tell the folks in el dorado
00:04:16That I was some big time new york numbers man
00:04:18I never even see the picture of new york
00:04:21Much less set foot in it
00:04:23I asked blue if those people couldn't tell
00:04:26Just by looking at me that I wasn't from new york
00:04:28Blue said
00:04:30Can a fat hog sit on a flagpole on a rainy day
00:04:33And see his ass reflected in a mud puddle
00:04:37Blue had this funny kind of way of talking
00:04:39But I still wasn't set on telling folks I was from new york
00:04:49Scared as I was
00:04:50I was still glad to stop being a waiter
00:04:53I took my waiter's jacket and throwed it out the window
00:04:56As far as I could throw it
00:04:58The jacket's probably still flying now
00:05:01Blue boy
00:05:02And I say blue boy
00:05:06Blue boy
00:05:06And I say blue boy
00:05:10Blue boy, blue boy, show his line
00:05:14Number 10, they'll get you high
00:05:18But I bet another book should show
00:05:20Well, here where you has got to go
00:05:26Blue boy, what you say
00:05:28Blue boy, I say
00:05:33Sister, here come the bus
00:05:34Sister Carter, I hope I can get me a youngster
00:05:36That don't drink and don't smoke
00:05:38Well, so far as near dark
00:05:40I just want so young and then help me pay my bills
00:05:42So this cracker won't take my paper share
00:05:45El Dorado looked like the promised land when I first seeded
00:05:48Blue boy had his own little welcoming party at the bus station
00:05:52Now me, I had two old sisters looking for a boy
00:05:57Blue boy! Oh, blue boy!
00:06:02Oh, blue boy!
00:06:07Child, I got your message, but I didn't think you would come in
00:06:10Well now, honey, you know I ain't strong enough
00:06:12It wasn't the finest pair of legs on earth
00:06:15Oh, you know I'm getting fat
00:06:17Oh, girl, now you shut that down so tough
00:06:19Why, every one of your curbs is winking at me right now
00:06:22And if they don't stop, I'm gonna do something terrible
00:06:26Nice to me

00:06:51Pig meat
00:06:52This is Dave Greene, my protege and partner, a numbers man from the office.

00:07:27And that's where we shall be. See who play.
00:07:30Blue Boy told Pigme how we was gonna set up a numbers bank.
00:07:34And while they was talking, I was looking.
00:07:37To me, behind every door was somebody just rearing to play the numbers.
00:07:42Pigme said that there were 30,000 spooks in El Dorado.
00:07:45I was just counting that money, for we was even in El Dorado five minutes.
00:07:49A half minutes.
00:08:19I don't plan this meal, you know that?

00:09:19That's right.
00:09:20You know, blue boy, you ain't never lie, cause them white folks are scared of dying.

00:14:41We set up business in the back of Big Meat's beauty parlor.
00:14:44Scratch started comin' in from everywhere.
00:14:46And when them folks found they could win themselves 600 to 1, no matter how much they bet, they started betting.
00:14:53Now, we was doin' a lot of money.
00:14:54Right here in Arkansas.

00:15:08Now, we was doin' so good, we even had a mascot.
00:15:12His name was Junebug.
00:15:13He just hung around.
00:15:15Said he wanted to learn somethin' about the business.
00:15:17Now, ain't that a bitch?
00:15:19He had a little side business, sellin' ice water to them women gettin' their hair hot cold.
00:15:24Now, who'd have thought you could sell water?
00:15:27While Junebug was sellin' ice water and sandwiches, me and Blue was explaining the numbers to our employees in the back room.
00:15:36Now, here's your numbers, Pat.
00:15:38You got three different color sheets, pink, white, and yellow.
00:15:41You give the pink one to the plane, save the yellow one for me, and leave the white one in the book.
00:15:45Yeah, my, you got it.
00:15:47This is the heart of the operation now.
00:15:49It's the nerve center, so it's the most important part.
00:15:51Now, most of you guys are gonna be pick-up men.
00:15:53Your job's gonna be to collect money and slips from everybody in your territory.
00:15:57And when you finish, bring all the money to the house to Blue Boy and get a receipt.

00:21:17Yeah

00:21:19Yeah
00:21:20Be apiges
00:21:21Back for God
00:21:22Being whole as his name
00:21:24He fed the church of Israel
00:21:25Yeah
00:21:26Yeah
00:21:27He blessed the children of Israel
00:21:28Yeah
00:21:29He blessed us
00:21:31For another day
00:21:32Yeah
00:21:33Blessed in the soup line
00:21:34Yeah
00:21:35Yeah
00:21:36Let us turn to Psalms 132
00:21:39Yeah
00:21:40Yeah
00:21:41One, three, two
00:21:42Yeah
00:21:43Brothers and sisters
00:21:44Yeah
00:21:45Oh, uh
00:21:46God, that preacher scared the daylights out of us
00:21:48out of us when he called out a 132nd song. Hell, everybody in that church played 132.
00:22:18Now, y'all know I'm the answer to all poor girls' bread.
00:22:29Oh, boy, sit down. Let me tell you something. There ain't no such thing as a poor white dad.
00:22:36Her color is her fortune. That's the truth. Hey, y'all, we got company.
00:22:48Blue boy, green. Right. Why don't y'all come on and sit down and have a taste with us.
00:22:58No, thanks. My stomach's been troubling me some. Oh, you got the aggravation. Yeah.
00:23:02Oh, I know it's about that aggravation. I remember when I was a little boy, flip, flip, my mama used to say to me,
00:23:07now, son, when your stomach gets all tied up in them little old nuts, what a message.
00:23:12Look, blue boy, I didn't come here to bullshit. We ain't interested.
00:23:16You ain't got no sense, nigga.
00:23:18You got plenty sense. Got some money, too.
00:23:22I want you to understand, punk. We don't need no more partners.
00:23:27Now, besides, y'all got a nice hunk of pie right there in Gator City.
00:23:31Never you mind what I got in Gator City. That's what I'm getting here in El Dorado that I'm talking about.
00:23:35Hey, look, you ain't getting doo-doo squat.
00:23:38Is that your answer, too, blue boy?
00:23:40Yeah, that's right. He's my partner.
00:23:42You know, you dudes had a chance to make a big pile of change, but you fucked up.
00:23:45And now I'm taking it.
00:23:47Hey, bubble butt.
00:23:49Bubble butt.
00:23:49I'm peeing in my pants.
00:23:53Let's go.
00:23:58Whoo-wee. That's a tough motherfucker.
00:24:02Oh, he ain't so tough. He's just big, that's all. I'll tell you one thing. It got me a feelin'.
00:24:09Meaning what?
00:24:11I smell somethin' burnin'.
00:24:13And where there's smoke, there's a peck of work.
00:24:18Please don't give me any of that crap.
00:24:20There's no such thing as a nigger not playin' ball.
00:24:23But them two is different.
00:24:24Oh, shit.
00:24:25Believe me, I tried, Mr. Antoine.
00:24:27Give me a rule.
00:24:28You just didn't get across to him, that's all.
00:24:30I tried, Mr. Antoine.
00:24:31Sure you did.
00:24:33They're just a little smarter than you, that's all.
00:24:35Well, Mr. Antoine, I'm very sure.
00:24:36Now you shut up and you listen to me.
00:24:38And you listen good.
00:24:39Yes, sir.
00:24:40Now I come down from New York, I got orders.
00:24:42Yes, sir.
00:24:42Well, that means you got orders, too.
00:24:44Now their operation is already runnin' smoother than anyone else's in the territory,
00:24:48including yours.
00:24:49Now I wanna know why.
00:24:51What do you want me to do, boss?
00:24:55What do I want you to do?
00:24:57I want you to keep your eye on them.
00:24:58Maybe lean on them a little now and then.
00:25:00Or let them grow.
00:25:01No, because I want their bank to be nice and fat when we move in on them, you know what
00:25:06I mean?
00:25:07We're not gonna be, boss.
00:25:10Why?
00:25:11You want a piece?
00:25:13Listen, Gaines, you're part of my organization, see?
00:25:16Yes, sir.
00:25:17You're with me because you're smarter than them other niggas, but you're lettin' me down.
00:25:22Now, I want you to whip them jigs into line, one way or another.
00:25:27You understand me, Gaines?
00:25:28Yes, sir.
00:25:29Good.
00:25:32Now, what the hell are you standin' there for?
00:25:34Go do somethin' about it, Gaines.
00:25:59Boy, does your mama know you out here this day even?
00:26:06Hey, Gaines.
00:26:10Ah.
00:26:14Ah!
00:26:21Ah!
00:26:26Ah!
00:26:27Ah!
00:26:32Ah!
00:26:32Sam, you are going to be a friend for life.
00:26:40Who sent you?
00:26:42I said, who the hell sent you?
00:26:44God damn it, who sent you?
00:26:46Jesus!
00:26:46It was Gaines!
00:26:47Listen, Sonny.
00:26:49You tell Gaines he or any of his gorillas ever stepped foot in Arkansas
00:26:52that I am personally going to find him and kick his fat asshole through his teeth.
00:26:57You remember that?
00:26:58I remember.
00:26:58All right, and you remember this too here?
00:27:00Now move!
00:27:02Yes.
00:27:05Business as usual?
00:27:08Business as usual.
00:27:17Glory, glory, glory, hallelujah.
00:27:31All right, that's all right.
00:27:34You young, since I've lived, I've burdens down.
00:27:53Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, hallelujah.
00:28:22Now, sometimes it made us feel real good when somebody hit bed, and it was good for business
00:28:48too.
00:28:49Now, after old sister Clara hit, the money came in even faster.
00:28:56Now, let's go.
00:29:03Now, let's go.
00:29:10Now, let's go.
00:29:17Now, let's go.
00:29:24Now, let's go.
00:29:31Now, let's go.
00:29:32Now, let's go.
00:29:33Now, let's go.
00:29:34Now, let's go.
00:29:35Now, let's go.
00:29:36Now, let's go.
00:29:37Now, let's go.
00:29:38Now, let's go.
00:29:39Now, let's go.
00:29:40Now, let's go.
00:29:41Now, let's go.
00:29:42Now, let's go.
00:29:43Now, let's go.
00:29:44Now, let's go.
00:29:45Now, let's go.
00:29:47Now, let's go.
00:29:49Let's go.
00:29:50Now, what are you getting to your cashier's cashier?
00:29:53I thought I had it here somewhere, sir.
00:29:57You know what I'm going to do for you, boy?
00:29:59Yes, you seem like you're a good neighbor.
00:30:01Thank you, sir.
00:30:02You work for Blue Boy, Greedy?
00:30:04I does, yes, sir.
00:30:05I'm going to take care of this ticket myself.
00:30:07Thank you, sir.
00:30:09How much?
00:30:11All of it.
00:30:13Yes, sir.
00:30:16You know, sir, you is a spitting image of what I thought a policeman was.
00:30:20Ain't it make peace?
00:30:22My pleasure, boy, my pleasure.
00:30:24Thank you, sir.
00:30:25I'll beat it.
00:30:26Yes, sir.
00:30:27Braddock in the center of the ring, and Lewis led there with a left and missed.
00:30:30Braddock was back out of the way.
00:30:32Braddock led with a left and came over with a right that was a little short.
00:30:35And then Lewis missed the left, and so did Braddock.
00:30:38And there Braddock came up with a right uppercut that missed.
00:30:41Lewis was back out of the way in time.
00:30:42Now Braddock's in the center of the ring, and Lewis gave it.
00:30:45There Braddock is down.
00:30:46You know, the right thing is, I ain't the only star in the world.
00:31:14Because if there was, it'd be a hell of a situation.
00:31:17Hey, you know, the way I hear it, if you go to most of them uppity-colored churches, if you're my color, you have to sit in the last row.
00:31:45And if you're red with nappy hair, well, you sit in the pew in front of me.
00:31:49And them yellow ones, well, they sit in the next.
00:31:53And the light-haired ones with blue eyes, well, they sit right up front there with God.
00:32:01Luke, if you have me in two years, I'll be just like Joe Lewis.
00:32:06No, you won't either, man.
00:32:07And here I am on the back seat of the bus, you know, sitting with my grandmother.
00:32:13And she took this grand big box of fried chicken and some light bread.
00:32:22Fried chicken.
00:32:26Kelly, really an eyeful, ain't she?
00:32:28You know her?
00:32:28Yeah, she's a high yeller.
00:32:32Campus chicken, studying science or something like that.
00:32:35They say she's got a real nice future.
00:32:38Now that she's coming, she don't.
00:32:39Hey, well, who's she, who does she go with, huh?
00:32:41Nobody.
00:32:43She don't have no time for no dumb street niggas.
00:32:46Hey, well, I ain't a dumb street nigger.
00:32:48Now, girl, that's what I call shooting.
00:32:54If I hadn't seen that with my own eyes, you'd know I wouldn't have believed it.
00:32:57I wouldn't have believed it.
00:32:59Now, hold on, boy.
00:33:01Hold on.
00:33:02My daddy taught me how to shoot just in case situations like this.
00:33:06Kelly.
00:33:08Hey, baby.
00:33:09Are you happy?
00:33:11David, of course I'm happy.
00:33:13Why do you ask?
00:33:14I don't know.
00:33:15I mean, a high-class, colored gal like you coming down here in the ward.
00:33:20It just seems strange.
00:33:23Seems like you're searching for something.
00:33:26I used to see you around once in a while.
00:33:28I'll drive.
00:33:29I'd come down that's history just to see you strutting about.
00:33:34It's true.
00:33:35Right from the first, you looked like you had such a definite place to go.
00:33:39And I just wanted to go a little bit of the way with you.
00:33:43Well, why not all the way?
00:33:45I wasn't sure you were the man I was looking for.
00:33:54I kept on looking, and you did too.
00:34:01Ain't it funny to feel so easy?
00:34:06Baby, I'm so glad it's you.
00:34:14Once in your lifetime is lucky
00:34:19When you can give your heart to share
00:34:27What a wonder I do believe
00:34:36Baby, baby, I'm so glad, baby, I'm so glad I found you
00:34:42Baby, I'm so glad to know you're in my life
00:34:50Baby, I'm so glad, baby, I'm so glad I found you
00:34:57Baby, I'm so glad, baby, I'm so glad to know you're in my life
00:35:04Baby, I'm so glad, baby, I'm so glad I found you
00:35:10Baby, I'm so glad to know you're in my life
00:35:17Baby, I'm so glad, baby, I'm so glad to know you're in my life
00:35:31Baby, baby
00:35:35Baby, I thought you were asleep
00:35:41Why'd you call me last night?
00:35:49To be with you
00:35:50Why didn't you introduce yourself soon?
00:35:55I wasn't sure you were the man I was looking for
00:35:57Well, when did you decide?
00:36:06When I saw what you were doing in the war
00:36:08You mean the money?
00:36:11Hell no, I mean
00:36:13What you've done with the numbers here in the war
00:36:15Well, I'm in it for a reason
00:36:20What?
00:36:23So I can have something to show
00:36:24Something I sure as hell can't have working for no cracker
00:36:28Wake up
00:36:37Things was going so good
00:36:42I know something had to happen
00:36:43That cracker Antoine wasn't going to sit on his ass forever
00:36:46And then one night
00:36:47Everybody was gone except Junebug, Iggy, and Sam
00:36:50When Antoine's men struck
00:36:52Junebug, go get help, get out of here
00:36:54Junebug!
00:37:02No!
00:37:19I know trouble was coming
00:37:23but not like he'd come.
00:37:25Poor little Junebug never hurt a soul.
00:37:27Selling a little ice water.
00:37:29No one knew where he came from.
00:37:31We never asked.
00:37:33But we all loved him just like he was our own.
00:37:36The killings made me more determined
00:37:37than ever to make it.
00:37:39But setting up a numbers bank down here
00:37:41is dangerous on account of them crazy crackers.
00:37:44Man, they can't stand to see anybody with nothing.
00:37:48Especially something that's gonna make us some money.
00:37:51Next thing you know,
00:37:51they'd be done sick the Klan or somebody on us.
00:37:54But me and Blue Boy,
00:37:56we're gonna stand up to them even if it killed us.
00:38:06I called Blue and told him what happened.
00:38:09He took it real bad.
00:38:12I know one thing.
00:38:13If I'd have been there,
00:38:14I'd have killed at least one of them.
00:38:16Look, look, y'all.
00:38:18It's gonna take at least a month
00:38:19to get some new pads printed.
00:38:20They gotta be printed and shipped in from Chicago.
00:38:23What supplies left, Makepeace?
00:38:25We got just about enough for one week.
00:38:28Jesus, we gotta do something about that and quick.
00:38:31Now, Makepeace,
00:38:33you always talking about Gaines Joint in Gator City?
00:38:35You really know where it's at?
00:38:36Do I know it?
00:38:38I lived over there for three years.
00:38:42What are you planning, Davey?
00:38:45Me?
00:38:46Nothing.
00:38:49I just think we ought to gather the boys together
00:38:50and have a little talk, that's all.
00:38:51We're up to real good in the way, didn't we, Chief?
00:39:07Yeah, it's too bad Green and Woodboy wasn't there.
00:39:09I sure would have gotten off low
00:39:10when they got that black asses rolled in.
00:39:12Yeah, but next time, Mr. Green,
00:39:14next time we really gonna fix them.
00:39:15We gonna fix them real good.
00:39:16Yeah.
00:39:17Hey, them claimants are out here.
00:39:18Come on, take a look at this.
00:39:19Let's get the hog of here.
00:39:20Yeah, get the hog.
00:39:49Let's get the hog.
00:39:50Let's get the hog.
00:39:51Come on, get the hog.
00:39:52Come on, take a look.
00:39:57Come on.
00:39:58Come on.
00:39:58Come on.
00:39:59Come on.
00:40:00Okay.
00:40:49What the hell are they doing?
00:41:03Looks like the KKK is going to the Numbers game, boss.
00:41:06They can't do that. Numbers is nigger business.
00:41:09You gonna tell them that, boss?
00:41:19All right, look.
00:41:27Y'all destroy the place, yeah?
00:41:29Let's go.
00:41:31Let's go.
00:41:33Destroy.
00:41:35All right, get a move on.
00:41:36Good evening, y'all.
00:41:50We didn't know you was having a little party tonight till we seed the cross.
00:41:54And we know it.
00:41:56This is Nick Gaines' place, ain't it?
00:41:59I always wanted to get me that damn jig of birds.
00:42:01Where are you at?
00:42:03Have you done him yet?
00:42:06What's the matter?
00:42:07Don't you want to talk much?
00:42:09Hell, that's all right.
00:42:10He just wants to remain anonymous.
00:42:14Hell, that don't make sense.
00:42:16We're all friends, ain't we?
00:42:18Good Christian fighters in that same crusade.
00:42:21Good.
00:42:23There ain't nothing better than skinning a goddamn nigger every day.

00:46:55I don't remember the cave, boys.
00:46:56I saw them come up on the other side.
00:46:57Well, you better.
00:46:58They're coming up.
00:46:59I've got to kill them.
00:47:04Jesus!
00:47:08Hey, watch this goddamn time.
00:47:10Jesus!
00:47:13Hey, hey, hey, holly, holly, holly, we need to stop him.
00:47:28We just slowed him down.
00:47:29Yeah, and I'm out of ammo, too.
00:47:31God damn it, you're hitting everything in the fucking road.
00:47:34I miss the goddamn mill.
00:47:43They ought to be coming over that hill any second now.
00:47:46I'm tired of playing games.
00:48:06That must have been lying on the street.
00:48:08That's what I have.
00:48:13Hey, that's funnier to watch a Johnny-Captor.
00:48:17Watchin' all them niggas all around in them clothes.
00:48:21You should have been wearing them.
00:48:24Thanks a lot.
00:48:25Yeah, when I ain't going, come on.
00:48:28Sit down, love of them dogs.
00:48:30Love of drinks, sit down.
00:48:33You know, I can't get that spit out of my mind.
00:48:38It's real funny, huh?
00:48:45Yeah, yeah, it was real funny.
00:48:47You really think that was funny, huh?
00:48:50All them niggas walkin' around in them robes?
00:48:53It was a hell of a lot more than just funny, Joe.
00:48:56Yeah.
00:48:57Yeah, that it was.
00:48:58Yeah, that it was.
00:48:59It was expensive for me, and for you, too.
00:49:02Expensive?
00:49:04I don't understand.
00:49:06You will.
00:49:07You will.
00:49:08No, it's not my fault.
00:49:38Well, I'll make it up to you.
00:49:39I swear, I'll make it up to you.
00:49:41What's the matter?
00:49:43There's nothin' to be scared about, is it, Carlos?
00:49:45That's right.
00:49:46Hey, why don't you two go out and take a little ride, get a little fresh air?
00:49:49It'll help to relax you.
00:49:51Please, boss.
00:49:52I'll fix everything.
00:49:53Give me some more time.
00:49:54Please.
00:49:54Come on, Joe.
00:49:55You have plenty of time already.
00:49:57You just couldn't make it, that's all, could you, Carlos?
00:49:59No, I just couldn't make it.
00:50:02Heck, Joe, there's nothin' personal.
00:50:04Them other guys are just a little smarter than you, that's all.
00:50:07And, jeez, that's too bad.
00:50:09I was just beginnin' to enjoy dealin' with you.
00:50:13Come on, man.
00:50:14Let's go out for a little ride.
00:50:16Mr. Antoine, please.
00:50:19Please give me another break.
00:50:21I said let's go.
00:50:22Let's go.
00:50:46Let's go.
00:51:16Let's go.
00:51:46I'm gonna tell you one thing, them crackers ain't playin', and that's for sure.
00:52:15Well, Gaines got exactly what was comin' to him.
00:52:20Dave, but to do that to a man, any man.
00:52:25Swear for God.
00:52:25Have you forgotten so soon?
00:52:27Color the white, Gaines was out to get us.
00:52:31He would've liked to seen us done in.
00:52:33And who says we won't be?
00:52:34Lying, Skids.
00:52:36We built that bank from start to finish.
00:52:38Remember, the bank is ours.
00:52:39Oh, come on, now, Davey.
00:52:41We got all the cash we need.
00:52:42We can start again any time.
00:52:43I'm leavin', Blue.
00:52:45I mean, I was a poor, scared nigga long enough.
00:52:48And another thing.
00:52:51I'm not askin' you to stay either, because if I gotta, I'll fight for that bank by myself.
00:52:56Hey, well, where are you going?
00:53:14I'm gonna get a little fresh air.
00:53:16I got a thinker to do.
00:53:17Come upstairs.
00:53:37Dave.
00:53:39Dave, I wanna talk to you just for a moment.
00:53:41It's not the money.
00:53:43I mean, what me and Blue Boy got here, we made all by ourselves.
00:53:45Without having to crawl to any cracker to beg his favor to do it.
00:53:48We just went on ahead and did it.
00:53:50And damn it, now that that bank stands for something,
00:53:53I ain't gonna let nobody else run it all my life,
00:53:55cause they skin happens to be white.
00:53:58Dave, they're still running your life.
00:54:01Allowing you to live only until they want you dead.
00:54:04Then bam, you're dead.
00:54:06Well, baby, that's just a chance I'm gonna have to take.
00:54:09Why?
00:54:10So you can end up dead like Gaines?
00:54:13Or shot up like A.E. and Sam and that poor little June bug?
00:54:17You're fighting for a principal?
00:54:20What a hell with principal.
00:54:21I'm fighting for you.
00:54:23And we're what matters.
00:54:25Not some numbers bank.
00:54:28Kelly, Blue Boy and me.
00:54:30Blue Boy?
00:54:32Have you looked at Blue Boy lately?
00:54:35Have you looked at him?
00:54:37That ain't the same Blue Boy that used to go strutting.
00:54:40I mean strutting down Bessie Street.
00:54:43Tipping his hat.
00:54:43Smiling at everyone he passes.
00:54:47He's whipped.
00:54:48And the bank has whipped him.
00:54:50And now it's gonna kill you.
00:54:52Well, baby, what do you want me to do about it?
00:54:54Get out, lover.
00:55:00With or without me, just get out while you're still breathing.
00:55:05You got all the money you need.
00:55:07Money don't mean shit.
00:55:09Don't you know crackers can make money invalid tomorrow?
00:55:11They say niggas gotta use seashells.
00:55:13And niggas won't have no seashells.
00:55:16I don't know what the hell you're talking about.
00:55:18Baby, with all my money, do you think I can sit down here and be the owner of a legitimate business?
00:55:22Well, I can't because to the white man, we are all niggas.
00:55:27And it takes real money like I got to find it out.
00:55:29So I'm staying.
00:55:31Well, stay, God damn it.
00:55:33Things started to go from bad to shit.
00:55:43I mean, if it wasn't one thing, it was another.
00:55:46Like the police ups and raids the counting house.
00:55:49Caught blue boy red-handed counting money.
00:55:52I was lucky enough to be out with Kelly.
00:55:54Well, fuck, close this door.
00:56:17Here, take it.
00:56:23Take it.
00:56:26You get a hold of Booker, tell him to get down here with some bail money.
00:56:34Hold it, hold it.
00:56:35You got the wrong gal.
00:56:37You picked me at Georgia over here.
00:56:38Come on, let's go.
00:56:40Let's turn around here.
00:56:42You ain't fooling with nobody.
00:56:43Come on.
00:56:44Let's go.
00:56:45No, let's go.
00:56:49Hold it, right there.
00:56:51Wow, look at all that money.
00:56:52Hey, Jesus, look at the money.
00:56:54Gentlemen, go right on.
00:56:55Help yourself.
00:56:56Go ahead.
00:56:59What the hell is going on here, anyway?
00:57:01We're just handcuffed from the prisoners, Chief.
00:57:03Damn fool, I don't see no prisoners laying on that there table.
00:57:05Well, uh, wait a minute, sir.
00:57:07We just got an evidence.
00:57:08Well, I tell you what.
00:57:09You be damn sure you saved some of that evidence for me.
00:57:11You understand?
00:57:11Yes, sir.
00:57:12Now move your lazy asses out of here.
00:57:13Come on.
00:57:14I want these boys to hook this up.
00:57:15Come on.
00:57:22See, this here money ain't becoming evidence.
00:57:29That's finally something that is.
00:57:34And this here sure looks interesting.
00:57:37I bet it's some kind of international gambling code or something.
00:57:42Jesse, get an axe to chop down this wall.
00:57:45Oh, we are taking it in as a bit.
00:57:48Move it back.
00:57:48Move it back.
00:57:49Come on.
00:57:50Come on.
00:57:50Move it back.
00:57:52Give it back.
00:57:53Come on.
00:57:53Oh, clear right.
00:57:54Come on.
00:57:54Move it.
00:57:55Give it back.
00:57:58Come on.
00:57:59Give it back.
00:58:00Give it back.
00:58:04We'll be all right, sir.
00:58:07Come on.
00:58:07Yeah, I'm all right.
00:58:08Come on.
00:58:09Don't be good, y'all.
00:58:11Oh, Lord have mercy.
00:58:13The white folks so damn lucky they pissin' money!
00:58:35We in America know that our own democratic institutions can be preserved
00:58:41and made to work.
00:58:44But in order to preserve them, we need to act together
00:58:48to meet the problems of the nation boldly
00:58:51Lord, have mercy, child.
00:58:53Like a damn near scared me to death.
00:58:58What do you think you're doing?
00:59:01Just a present for you.
00:59:04For me? Well, I sure ain't done nothing deserving.
00:59:08That's true, but, well, I don't mind.
00:59:10Now what are you doing listening to this for?
00:59:15Say, where's Davey boy?
00:59:17Still at the bank, I guess.
00:59:19You know something?
00:59:20That boy seems to be able to run that business now without me.
00:59:23That's good.
00:59:25Miss Kelly, I'm thinking about permanent retirement.
00:59:28No, Davey needs you too much.
00:59:30In two weeks your trial will be over
00:59:32and you'll be back at the bank crazier than ever.
00:59:35Crazy.
00:59:36You still mad at Dave?
00:59:41No.
00:59:43But I am intending to leave him.
00:59:45Well, why?
00:59:46I don't understand that.
00:59:48I thought you two were making the biggest blaze since Adam and Eve.
00:59:51Maybe we were, but...
00:59:52Look, Kelly.
00:59:54Don't leave Dave.
00:59:56And if you do, take him with you.
00:59:59What?
01:00:00You heard me.
01:00:01You take him with you.
01:00:03Cause in a few weeks our whole operation ain't gonna be worth a damn.
01:00:07Once them crackers get a nose full of how big we really is.
01:00:09But Blue Boy...
01:00:12You heard him.
01:00:14The numbers is Dave's whole life.
01:00:17He's gonna defend it till they kill him.
01:00:19I can't sit by and watch that happen.
01:00:22And don't.
01:00:24You're both young enough.
01:00:26And the Lord knows you enough, woman, for any man.
01:00:29Get married.
01:00:30Have some kids.
01:00:32Oh, Kelly, there's a whole world waiting out there for you.
01:00:35You really do love us, don't you, Blue?
01:00:40Kelly.
01:00:42God didn't see fit for me to have children in my own flesh and blood.
01:00:46But there ain't no man on earth that loves his children more than I do you and Dave.
01:00:53You and Dave are my children.
01:00:57And I, for one, am mighty proud.
01:01:01Mighty proud.
01:01:02But what about you, Blue?
01:01:05Oh, honey, don't you worry about old Blue Boy?
01:01:08I'm just gonna sit back and relax.
01:01:12And take it easy.
01:01:14You see, Kelly?
01:01:16I'm a little tired now.
01:01:19I just ain't got the strength to fight the world no more.
01:01:21God damn it, Blue.
01:01:22I don't care what you say.
01:01:23I'm gonna hire you a lawyer.
01:01:24Come on, Davey boy.
01:01:25Why don't you just sit on down here and relax.
01:01:26You gotta learn how to take it easy.
01:01:28Your head is as hard as a damn hickory nut.
01:01:29Besides, ain't your trial know-how.
01:01:30Don't make no such kind of sense, you going out here hiring a whole bunch of lawyers.
01:01:31Blue, it's our bank that's on trial.
01:01:32All of us gotta go free.
01:01:33Davey, you gonna let me take care of this.
01:01:34What we is charged with ain't no worse than a back alley crap game.
01:01:36Well, if you really wanna make it worse, you just go strutting into that court with a bunch of fancy lawyers,
01:01:39and that judge will really know we got something to hide showing up.
01:01:55So you think that you gon' go strutting in there without a lawyer and go scot-free?
01:01:58Dude, how by you trying to drive a pallet?
01:02:03And then you come out, I go out there every second.
01:02:08free shit I'd like to see that you will son you surely will
01:02:38oh you know it's my head
01:02:44yes you know it's my

01:03:11Order!
01:03:13Order! Order!
01:03:16You're damn sure they're New York gangsters.
01:03:28Hudson!
01:03:33What is this?
01:03:34Where is all these international gamblers like it says here in this complaint?
01:03:38Well, Your Honor, there has been a plot on down in the ward.
01:03:43A bunch of New York gangsters come down here and swindle these here colored boys into playing the nigger poos.
01:03:52Nigger poos?
01:03:53Yes, sir.
01:03:54Well, where is all these New York gangsters you've been telling us about?
01:03:59Well, sir, as a matter of fact, we nipped it right in the bud.
01:04:03That's exactly what we did. As a matter of fact, never give them a chance. No, sir.
01:04:08They got away.
01:04:10I'm sorry to say with all the cash evidence, but they left these here colored boys holding the bag.
01:04:15And every one of them is guilty of a slew of offenses.
01:04:24All the cash evidence?
01:04:27Yes, sir.
01:04:28Well, what kind of evidence do you have?
01:04:33Yeah, what kind of evidence do you have?
01:04:36Just one second, please, if I may.
01:04:38Gentlemen, please.
01:04:43What is that?
01:04:45What in the hell is that?
01:04:54Well, your honor.
01:04:56Oh, that's a wall.
01:04:58A wall?
01:04:59Judge, do you see all of that writing on it?
01:05:05Every bit of that, sir?
01:05:07Is nigger poos cold?
01:05:10What does it mean?
01:05:12Well, now, we haven't rightly been able to figure that out.
01:05:15You can't figure it out, huh?
01:05:18Well, can anybody figure it out?
01:05:19What did the defendants say it were?
01:05:21Nothing.
01:05:22Nothing.
01:05:26Well, your honor.
01:05:28They all said that it was writing on the wall.
01:05:31Order!
01:05:36Hudson.
01:05:38I don't like this worth a damn, understand?
01:05:41It looks to me like somebody's cooking up a stew to make my Negro boys here look a little bit silly and I don't...
01:05:47But, your honor.
01:05:48Quiet!
01:05:49I'll not have this court intimidated by any so-called public servants.
01:05:53Is that clear?
01:05:56Yes, sir.
01:05:58Further, long as our Negroes continue to behave themselves, mind their own business, and don't cause no trouble for no one,
01:06:05I don't want to see two damn fools like you picking on them.
01:06:10Is that clear?
01:06:12Yes, sir.
01:06:14Good.
01:06:15Case dismissed.
01:06:16Court's adjourned.
01:06:17Yes, sir.
01:06:18Yes, sir.
01:06:19Good.
01:06:20Case dismissed.
01:06:21Court's adjourned.
01:06:22After they does time.
01:06:23After they does time.
01:06:24Is that clear?
01:06:26Yes, sir.
01:06:27Good.
01:06:29Case dismissed.
01:06:30Court's adjourned.
01:06:31Scott's adjourned.
01:06:32Bye-bye,
01:06:41We love you, we love you, we love you.
01:06:52Anoint his head, child.
01:06:54Anoint his head, child.
01:06:57I'm upon the rest of him gettin' dressed time.
01:06:59I'm here to read him.
01:07:01Baby! Ha!
01:07:03Hey son, what's wrong?
01:07:05Listen, you won the case.
01:07:07You tired, child.
01:07:09But you're here, old man.
01:07:12You made me sick.
01:07:14Bowing and scraping and crawling on your knees.
01:07:18Begging them for mercy like they was your masters.
01:07:21You made them think we ain't nothing more than a bunch of ignorant, no-count niggers.
01:07:26Son, what they think don't matter.
01:07:30Don't you know having the cracker's respect don't mean that we are one bit less niggers to them?
01:07:34Yeah, but it still didn't give you the right to go crawling on the floor like you did.
01:07:37Lord, have mercy.
01:07:39Save me, Jesus.
01:07:41You made me sick.
01:07:42Davey, I did what I thought was best for us.
01:07:46For you.
01:07:47The best way I knew how.
01:07:48Yeah, but there were other ways.
01:07:49I swear there were other ways.
01:07:51Sure.
01:07:53I could have gone into that court in my fine blue serge suit.
01:07:57Traded behind a bunch of fancy lawyers you had to hire.
01:08:00Flash the big bankroll.
01:08:02But none of that.
01:08:04None of that would have brought a nigger justice.
01:08:06Oh, Davey White folks is crazy.
01:08:10They believes all that shit their grandmammy tellin' about niggers.
01:08:13They spew it out, and their children will lap it up.
01:08:17And just as long as they believe it,
01:08:20it makes it easy for us to fool.
01:08:22And you call bein' reduced to nothin', foolin' em'?
01:08:32Crackers ain't that crazy.
01:08:34Now I can see fightin' em' and losin' em', but doin' what you done?
01:08:37Davey, do you think I'm proud of what I've done?
01:08:39You think I've been proud all my life,
01:08:44having to bow my head in Tom?
01:08:51Just so that I could survive.
01:08:55Son,
01:08:55I did what I've done today
01:08:58for you.
01:09:02For you young'uns.
01:09:03Because you young'uns got to carry on to good fight.
01:09:17Me?
01:09:18Mike, I am.
01:09:19We're finished.
01:09:21But you can't do it behind bars.
01:09:25Son,
01:09:26we walked out of that courtroom
01:09:28free,
01:09:29not lynched,
01:09:31not penniless,
01:09:34but free.
01:09:36But even freedom ain't worth
01:09:37crawlin' on your goddamn knees!
01:09:42You don't understand!
01:09:46Baby!
01:10:01Mom!

01:17:57forget me
01:17:59ah
01:18:04Get your thing and go.
01:18:20It blew us away.
01:18:22Ain't nothing here but death.
01:18:25No, I'm still here.
01:18:34Blue Boy used to say you never miss the water till the well runs dry.
01:18:39Well, I sure miss Blue.
01:18:42You know, next to Kelly, I guess I ain't never loved nobody as much as I loved old Blue Boy.
01:18:47I just wish now that I'd have showed it when he could have seen it.
01:18:50I was so busy trying to be a big-time numbers man, I couldn't see for looking.
01:18:55I never knowed how much Blue cared for me and Kelly.
01:18:58I never understood what Blue was trying to knock into my thick skull.
01:19:03Well, to Blue Boy, the important thing was to pass it on.
01:19:08Like them foot races where one runner passes a stick on to another runner
01:19:13and keeps on running and running until it's time for him to pass it on.
01:19:19Blue Boy passed it on to me and I guess it's my turn now.
01:19:24Blue Boy took it just as far as he could go.
01:19:26And if us niggas keep passing it on, maybe someday, just maybe someday,
01:19:33we'll pull up alongside them crackers and maybe, maybe even pull ahead.
01:19:38The Lord knows I'd love to see that day.
01:19:42My trial's coming up next week.
01:19:45Kelly wants me to get a big-time lawyer, but I reckon I don't need one.
01:19:50I got a pass on more than I got from Blue Boy, just as he passed on more than he got.
01:19:59Them dumb fucking crackers, they'll fall for it again.
01:20:04Sometimes, sometimes they just dumber than mules.
01:20:08I see the Lord, he's touching me.
01:20:33Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye to earthly woe.
01:20:50He's come to take me home.
01:20:54He's come to take me home.
01:21:02Oh, my God.
