00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00You're looking at Superstition Mountain, a barbaric pile of rock 40 miles long by 20 wide.
00:01:23The man is Floyd Buckley. He's going into this 800 square miles of sudden and violent death because he thinks it's just another mountain and because he's greedy for its treasure.
00:01:34Yeah, I said treasure. Gold. 20 million dollars worth of precious yellow metal waiting to be found in America's most elusive mine, appropriately named the Lost Dutchman.
00:01:47It's simple to get to. The mountain, I mean. Just drive 36 miles due east from Phoenix, Arizona, and there she is. She looks easy from the outside. Inside, it's like Satan's private art gallery. Sculptured pagan granites unmellowed by time. Hidden and terrifying canyons and gorges.
00:02:06But if you'd like to pick up 20 million bucks and figure like Buckley there that a mountain's just a mountain, I'll show you where to look.
00:02:13But before you leave for Arizona, you ought to know that 21 men have been murdered grabbing for that dough.
00:02:19And hundreds more have died in other ways.
00:02:22You see, this is the true story of Superstition Mountain, the biography of a death trap.
00:02:32My name's Barry Storm. I was hurled into this story when I heard that shot.
00:02:37Up till then, I was just an ordinary guy with a reasonable curiosity about the Lost Dutchman mine.
00:02:43A curiosity I wish I'd never been born with.
00:02:46I hurried toward the sound of the report and hoped I'd find a hunter who'd maybe bag the deer.
00:02:52I found Floyd Buckley, sprawled and dead.
00:02:57His blood, life, and dreams spilling out on the unfriendly ground.
00:03:02When you find a dead man, you're supposed to call the police.
00:03:05I'm a good citizen. I set out to do what you're supposed to do.
00:03:08Fear and panic gave me a boost up over that ledge, and I began to run, not walk, to the nearest exit.
00:03:14Speed no longer meant anything to Buckley, but it did to me.
00:03:16I didn't want to be framed in the crosshairs of a telescopic sight and a high-powered rifle.
00:03:21I'd just gone in to look for gold.
00:03:23I didn't want to find lead from the business end of a killer's gun.
00:03:26It took me three days and 36 miles of tough hiking to put the sheriff from Florence, Arizona, into action.
00:03:43Identification bracelet.
00:03:44Wallet.
00:03:52Telegram.
00:03:55Lecturing in Los Angeles, September 30th.
00:03:58They're going to have to get a new speaker.
00:04:01That's all the personal effects.
00:04:04Let's go.
00:04:05Sit down, son.
00:04:25You say your name's Barry Storm.
00:04:28You're from Colorado, and you've been here only 10 days.
00:04:30You're no prospector, but you were up there when Buckley got shot.
00:04:36What were you doing in the mountain?
00:04:38Well, I know it sounds kind of bad, but I was following Buckley.
00:04:41You were what?
00:04:42Now, wait a minute.
00:04:43I didn't shoot him.
00:04:44I had a good reason to be up there.
00:04:46My grandfather was Jacob Waltz.
00:04:48Who?
00:04:48Jacob Waltz.
00:04:50The man who owned the lost Dutchman gold mine.
00:04:52The Dutchman, huh?
00:04:53That goes back to about 1880.
00:04:57He's supposed to have killed quite a few men in his time.
00:05:02That doesn't have anything to do with me.
00:05:04All I know is, when I was a kid, my mom heard about this mine her father was supposed to have found.
00:05:10I always figured someday I'd come down here.
00:05:12So you came down here.
00:05:13Go on.
00:05:14Well, I thought there might still be a buck laying around that had my name on it.
00:05:18First place I went to was a claims office in Phoenix.
00:05:20How do you spell that again?
00:05:21No, Waltz. W-A-L-Z. Jacob Waltz.
00:05:26Well, nobody with that name ever registered a claim here.
00:05:29This record goes clear back to 1870.
00:05:32But there must have been.
00:05:33Well, the lost Dutchman was supposed to be worth a fortune.
00:05:35He wouldn't just leave that money laying around.
00:05:37Maybe he never found a mine.
00:05:39Some people don't believe there ever was a lost Dutchman.
00:05:41Well, then again, some do.
00:05:43News had a story on it just this morning.
00:05:50There.
00:05:51This newspaper item was my first lead.
00:05:55I wanted to meet this guy who said he was going to find my grandfather's mine.
00:06:00Mr. Buckley, if you've got a minute, I'd like to ask you a couple of questions about this newspaper story.
00:06:04Certainly. I'm always glad to see the press.
00:06:05Oh, I am not a reporter.
00:06:07I'm just interested in you being so sure about locating that lost Dutchman.
00:06:11If you've read my books, you'd know I'm hardly the type to go out on the wild goose chase.
00:06:14You've got a map.
00:06:15Naturally, I have a map.
00:06:16One of the original Peraltas, in fact.
00:06:18The Peralta?
00:06:19Yes, you see, the Peralta mine I'm seeking in the lost Dutchman happen to be one and the same.
00:06:23Then it looks like you and I have got something in common.
00:06:26Yes.
00:06:27I happen to be Jacob Walter's grandson.
00:06:29Really?
00:06:30You mean the man who allegedly owned it?
00:06:33Hmm.
00:06:33That's very interesting, I'm sure.
00:06:35I never knew he left a family.
00:06:36I can prove it if I have to.
00:06:38That's why it might be good business to let me come along with you.
00:06:41Now, if you know how to use this man...
00:06:43I not only know how to use it, but I know where the marker is.
00:06:46And I know how to use that, too.
00:06:48But for your information, young man, I never go partners.
00:06:51Excuse me.
00:06:53He really brushed me off.
00:06:54I decided right then to follow him.
00:06:56When his car dropped him off at Apache Junction, I was waiting.
00:06:59I started tailing him then.
00:07:01But Buckley was too sharp.
00:07:02He lost me on the third day.
00:07:04I never caught up with him again.
00:07:05Not until after I heard the shot.
00:07:0630-30.
00:07:07Entered downward from behind.
00:07:10Hey.
00:07:11This must be the map he was talking about.
00:07:13It was in his wallet.
00:07:16Hey, something's been torn off the top of him.
00:07:18Maybe that's the way he got it.
00:07:19Maybe it had directions on it and he tore it off himself.
00:07:21Some fellows memorize directions so that nobody else can use their maps.
00:07:26Well, half the state has got indigestion from eating old maps.
00:07:32You've been staying in Phoenix, huh?
00:07:34Your things there?
00:07:35Well, some of them.
00:07:36Most everything I own is right on me.
00:07:38I put my bag in the bus depot after I checked out of the hotel.
00:07:42You haven't got a job.
00:07:44You say you're the Dutchman's grandson.
00:07:46You tailed a guy you thought was holding out on you.
00:07:48He gets knocked off.
00:07:50Ray, you'd better take him out to the mountain tomorrow.
00:07:52Let him show you just how he spent those three days.
00:07:54Walter, you'd better go along with him.
00:07:56Come on.
00:07:57Come on.
00:07:58Come on.
00:07:58Come on.
00:07:59Come on.
00:08:00Come on.
00:08:01Come on.
00:08:02Come on.
00:08:03How long after the shot before you found him?
00:08:0710 to 15 minutes.
00:08:08Maybe longer.
00:08:09He was still warm.
00:08:11You didn't see anybody else?
00:08:13No.
00:08:15What were your plans if Buckley had found the mine?
00:08:18Well, I don't know exactly, but I wouldn't have shot him.
00:08:24Well, I guess I didn't have any plans.
00:08:27That is, beyond hoping there might be a mine, I might have some legal rights to.
00:08:31Come on, Walter.
00:08:33Let's have a look at the other side of the canyon.
00:08:40What are you looking for now?
00:08:43Hey, Buckley was hit from behind.
00:08:45The killer was somewheres up there with that cliff.
00:08:48You were up over there.
00:08:50That take me off the hook?
00:08:51Hmm.
00:08:52Maybe.
00:08:53Unless Buckley spun around before he fell.
00:08:56You see, three other guys have been knocked off in this same area, ahead of Buckley, before
00:09:02you even got here.
00:09:04That's a break in your favor.
00:09:07Buckley was the fourth?
00:09:08The fourth in the last two years.
00:09:11All right around here.
00:09:13And all by a 30-30.
00:09:15And if you look in the record book, you'll find out 20 men have died in this mountain since
00:09:201880.
00:09:23Well, I'm through.
00:09:25Let's get back to Patchy Junction and some cold beer.
00:09:29I was just thinking, this all adds up to something.
00:09:31Like what?
00:09:32Four guys murdered, all in the same area, all by a 30-30, all in the shadow of Weaver's
00:09:36Needle.
00:09:37So?
00:09:38The killer thinks he knows where the gold is.
00:09:41When it looked like the others might find it before he did.
00:09:43When they got too close, he knocked them off.
00:09:46So the jackpot must be somewhere as close, near that peak.
00:09:51Buckley, I bet he found it.
00:09:53Found what?
00:09:53The mine?
00:09:54No, the marker.
00:09:56He said he knew where the marker was and how to use it.
00:09:59Come on, I'll show you something.
00:10:07There's your marker.
00:10:09This is what Buckley meant?
00:10:11It's the only marker in this mountain.
00:10:12The rocks hammered in that old soiree cactus indicate three directions, but only the one
00:10:18pointing north leads anywhere, though, to some signs carving those rocks up there.
00:10:23It's quite a climb.
00:10:25Come on.
00:10:25There they are.
00:10:34What do they mean?
00:10:39Oro is a word for gold.
00:10:41The sunburst means the mine is near.
00:10:43This means 50 yards away in the direction the snake is pointing.
00:10:49Now, the only trouble is nobody has ever been able to find anything but follow on those signs.
00:10:54Oh, aren't they the real thing?
00:10:55Who knows?
00:10:56Who put them there?
00:10:57You suppose my grandfather?
00:10:58Ah, they're Spanish signs.
00:10:58Supposed to have been cut by the Peraltas.
00:10:59Peraltas?
00:11:00Buckley had a Peralta map.
00:11:01It had the name Manuel on it.
00:11:02Mm-hmm.
00:11:03There were three of them.
00:11:04Brothers.
00:11:05Manuel, Pedro, and Raymond.
00:11:06They were the first to find gold in here 100 years ago.
00:11:09There's an old Indian legend about them in this mountain, eh, Walter?
00:11:11They opened up several of the mines and then left.
00:11:13And then Pedro, the oldest brother, came back with a big expedition.
00:11:17Walter here, who's an Apache himself, has heard from his own people the story of what happened.
00:11:22After many nuisance raids by the Indians, Pedro Peralta decided to hide his gold.
00:11:29He selected the richest and most inaccessible mine of all as his storage placed.
00:11:35It was reached through a narrow, twisted, and almost hidden canyon that finally opened on to a torturous runway.
00:11:42This runway was the only entrance to and the only exit from the fabulous mine located on the river.
00:11:51the thin, precipitous ledge below.
00:11:54While armed men stood guard, Pedro's miners led their animals to the dangerous ledge where the rough ore was separated from that which had been crushed.
00:12:03And the pure gold nuggets were hurriedly poured into sacks for storage in the hidden mine.
00:12:09Pedro sat just inside his mine and noted that he possessed some $20 million worth of gold.
00:12:15But fate had decreed a different kind of fortune for him.
00:12:18Fate and the Apache.
00:12:20Fate and the Apache.
00:12:22Had meglio from the theft of one, that he was atomic.
00:12:24Thevordan theadia?
00:12:25First dignity wells.
00:12:26Wait, you come out for several years, after everything going out for the 위에 and the animal?
00:12:27Nothing.
00:12:28It'll exist .
00:12:29Didn't seem to be old yet.
00:12:30With the
00:12:48Cochise, the greatest of all Apache chiefs, watched the lightning-like attack.
00:13:10And when every Spaniard was finally killed, he ordered his warriors to close the mine.
00:13:15You see, the Spaniards had defiled a holy place when they came into superstition,
00:13:21because to the Apaches it was a sacred home of their thunder gods.
00:13:25It wasn't enough to just kill Pedro and his men.
00:13:28All traces of them and their work had to be erased.
00:13:31So the mine was completely closed and hidden.
00:13:35With that accomplished, Cochise and the Apaches felt their thunder gods were avenged and appeased.
00:13:42Every mine was closed so efficiently that they disappeared from view as though they'd never existed.
00:13:48And Pedro's $20 million worth of gold was buried inside the sacred mountain from which it had been taken.
00:13:55That's the legend, as the Apaches have told it for over a hundred years.
00:13:59The Apaches buried all that gold?
00:14:01Just like in Fort Knox.
00:14:03Yeah.
00:14:04Well, didn't the other brothers, Remo or Manuel, ever come back?
00:14:07Well, they say Remo came back, but who knows?
00:14:10You know, I generally charge tourists ten bucks for telling that yarn.
00:14:15And that mine where the gold is buried, that's the one my grandfather rediscovered.
00:14:19So they say.
00:14:20Well, let's push it along.
00:14:21Hey, hey, Ray, wait a minute.
00:14:22Yep.
00:14:23Do I have to go out with you?
00:14:24I'd sort of like to stay in here a while longer.
00:14:27Oh, getting you too, huh?
00:14:30Gold happy.
00:14:31You know, every tourist I tell that yarn to has to stay a little while longer.
00:14:36All trying to figure out them signs.
00:14:38Yeah, I'm something more than a tourist.
00:14:39I've got a family interest in that mine.
00:14:41Well, it's all right with me.
00:14:43I'll leave you some grub.
00:14:45But remember, there's a killer loose in here.
00:14:48I'd hate to see you end up like Buckley.
00:14:51Coven's reminder about Buckley took some of the excitement out of me, but only for a minute.
00:14:57The deputy could think I was a fool if he wanted to, but I was determined to try my luck at putting the golden jigsaw together.
00:15:07For the next five days, I beat my brains out trying to make the Spanish treasure signs pay off.
00:15:1350 yards, they said.
00:15:15I went 50 yards in every direction, but straight up.
00:15:19If I'd had wings, I'd have tried that.
00:15:21I began to realize that this was no ordinary puzzle.
00:15:24I finally thought that maybe if I went over every foot of the area where the four men had been murdered, I might find something.
00:15:31How close I came, I didn't learn till a lot later.
00:15:34I didn't know I was being stalked, that for a moment I was a bullseye, a sitting duck, number five on the list.
00:15:40I just kept going, dreaming about being a millionaire.
00:15:45The only thing I learned was that the guy who'd murdered Buckley wasn't the only killer loose in superstition.
00:15:50The only thing I learned was that the guy who'd murdered Buckley was a man who'd murdered Buckley was a man who'd murdered Buckley was a man who'd murdered Buckley.
00:15:55You don't relax right away, you sort of coast to a stop after a shock like that.
00:16:24I was almost afraid to look at my leg, I was sure he'd gotten me.
00:16:29He hadn't, but he came awful close.
00:16:33I finally started to breathe again and shook off the shroud of fear the rattler had thrown over me.
00:16:39I picked up my pack and started to get up.
00:16:42That's when I found it, buried in the ground.
00:16:45When I pulled rocks loose to throw at the snake, I'd uncovered a part of a rifle.
00:16:50Excitedly, I dug the rest of it out of the gravel.
00:16:52I didn't have any idea of what kind it was, but as I held it in my hands, I wanted to believe it had been my grandfather's.
00:16:59Because if it was, it could mean I was close to the lost mine, to the gold.
00:17:04Call it fate, luck, it doesn't matter.
00:17:06But a rattlesnake that had tried to kill me had led me to this old weapon.
00:17:10At that moment, it seemed I could actually feel the presence of Jacob Waltz in the unfriendly canyon.
00:17:16Suddenly, it was more important to find out about this gun than it was to keep on searching for the mine.
00:17:20So I decided to leave the mountain and bring the gun to you.
00:17:23Would you know what kind it is?
00:17:25Looks like a Sharps, but we're interested in a .30-30.
00:17:28Yeah. Yeah, but if it is old enough, it could have been my grandfather's, couldn't it?
00:17:32I told you he had the bug.
00:17:34Let me see it.
00:17:36I think I got a Sharps here.
00:17:40A Sharps.
00:17:42Breach loader.
00:17:43.45-90 caliber.
00:17:45Lots of them around here in the 70s and 80s.
00:17:47That one killed a sheriff in 1875.
00:17:49You know, finding this where I did, I sort of thought I might be near his mine.
00:17:53That is, if it was his gun.
00:17:55I never heard anybody say what kind of a weapon Waltz used.
00:17:58If it's so important for you to find out, you might try the Pioneer's home.
00:18:01Pioneer's home?
00:18:02Yeah.
00:18:03It's in Phoenix.
00:18:04Old folks' place.
00:18:05One of those old-timers might be able to tell you about this.
00:18:08And your grandfather, too.
00:18:09Yeah, they got nothing else to do up there but talk.
00:18:12Thanks.
00:18:13I think I'll pay him a visit.
00:18:24Mrs. Bannister might be able to help you.
00:18:27She spent her childhood in Florence Junction.
00:18:29She isn't easy to talk to.
00:18:31You promise not to upset her.
00:18:32No, I won't.
00:18:37Martha, this is Mr. Storm.
00:18:39He wants to ask you a few questions.
00:18:42You know, I don't like being bothered.
00:18:46You've got no right to bring people pestering me.
00:18:50It's about my grandfather.
00:18:51He lived here around 1886.
00:18:53I knew a lot of people who lived here.
00:18:55What was his name?
00:18:56Waltz.
00:18:57Jacob Waltz.
00:18:59I won't talk about him.
00:19:01Jacob Waltz was a mean, wicked man.
00:19:05And if you're his grandson, you're probably just like him.
00:19:09Did I hear you mention Jake Waltz?
00:19:11He was a real sidewinder, that man.
00:19:13What do you want to know about him?
00:19:14I'll be glad to tell you.
00:19:15You're always poking your nose in where you ain't wanted, Bill Bates.
00:19:18He didn't ask you.
00:19:19My name's Barry Storm.
00:19:20You see, Waltz was my...
00:19:21Checking up on old Jake, eh?
00:19:22Well, you've come to the right place, young fella.
00:19:24Now, if you want my opinion, I'm...
00:19:25You don't want anything from you.
00:19:26I'm the one who knows all about Jacob Waltz.
00:19:27You see, I found this gun.
00:19:28You like guns, don't you?
00:19:30You probably go around scaring people with them, just like he did to me.
00:19:33When I was a girl in Florence Junction, he frightened me.
00:19:35He was a man.
00:19:36I was a man.
00:19:37He was a man.
00:19:38I was a man.
00:19:39I was a man.
00:19:40I was a man.
00:19:41I was a man.
00:19:42I was a man.
00:19:43I was a man.
00:19:44He was a man.
00:19:45I was a man.
00:19:46I was a man.
00:19:47I was a man.
00:19:48I was a man.
00:19:49I was a man.
00:19:50I was a man.
00:19:51I was a man.
00:19:52He frightened me.
00:19:55What you doing, mister?
00:19:57Huh?
00:19:58What you doing?
00:19:59Why are you playing with that?
00:20:01Is that gun yours?
00:20:02He's brand new, ain't it?
00:20:04Ain't it, mister?
00:20:06Come here.
00:20:09Wanna have some fun?
00:20:11Huh?
00:20:12Put your finger in there.
00:20:15Pull.
00:20:18Pull harder.
00:20:21I've got buyers for two of our burros, a Mexican fellow and his partner.
00:20:41Well, here's your burros. You got them at a good price, too.
00:20:44Gonna have a look for that lost Spanish gold?
00:20:51Guess right, didn't I? Everybody looks for it, but nobody ever finds it.
00:20:56I figure them engines hit it. Too good to hit it.
00:21:01What do you mean, the engines hit it?
00:21:03That gold is hidden forever.
00:21:06Want to sell back them burros? They'll give you half what you paid for them.
00:21:10Maybe they ain't hit it good enough. Eh, Peralta?
00:21:14Silencio!
00:21:17Keep your mouth shut.
00:21:19What do you mean, Peralta?
00:21:21Does it mean anything to you, Dutchie?
00:21:23It'd be a dirty shame if they were to stumble onto something...
00:21:25...when we weren't there to see what it was.
00:21:27Yeah.
00:21:28What do you mean, Peralta?
00:21:29What do you mean, Peralta?
00:21:30Does it mean anything to you, Dutchie?
00:21:31It'd be a dirty shame if they were to stumble onto something...
00:21:33...when we weren't there to see what it was.
00:21:34Yeah.
00:21:35What do you mean, Peralta?
00:21:36What do you mean, Peralta?
00:21:37Do you mean anything to you, Dutchie?
00:21:38It'd be a dirty shame if they were to stumble onto something...
00:21:40...when we weren't there to see what it was.
00:21:42Yeah.
00:22:05They're making camp for the night.
00:22:08Yeah, it's about time.
00:22:10The fellas must be part mountain goat the way they've been hightailing.
00:22:14Go start a fire down in the gully there.
00:22:17Don't make any smoke.
00:22:20I'll go unload the burro.
00:22:25Yeah.
00:22:26As soon as I play myself a game.
00:22:35Hey.
00:22:36You know, I think you're right about them.
00:22:39They haven't even stopped to pan one of the streams.
00:22:44They know where they're going, all right.
00:22:47You really know where they're going.
00:22:49We ought to seen a way that Mexican jumped down the other fella's throath...
00:23:07...when he started to talk.
00:23:08You're dang right they know where they're going.
00:23:11Say, you're lucky I let you in on this.
00:23:16I'm lucky I let you in on this.
00:23:21You go down and build a fire and don't make any smoke.
00:23:38If I just turn up the ace of spades, I can win this game.
00:23:42Well, they could be the ace of spades.
00:23:51Yeah, I won that game.
00:23:58Them's the settin'est two fellers I ever seen.
00:24:01Suppose they sleep settin' up that way?
00:24:05Yeah.
00:24:09The fire's goin' out.
00:24:11The ace of spades never shows up when I need it most.
00:24:14It eats me every dang game.
00:24:17Come on!
00:24:18Come on!
00:24:28They tricked us.
00:24:29Them shat-bellied hornswugglers made us think you were settin' here.
00:24:35They won't get away.
00:24:36We can pick up a trail.
00:24:38I figured they went this way. What do you think?
00:24:39Sure, sure, Dutchie. Sure.
00:24:40All right, go get the burro.
00:24:41Go on!
00:24:42The two who were following us.
00:24:44I wonder if they follow our trail.
00:24:45No, we'd have seen them two days before if they had.
00:24:48Are you sure you know what you're doing?
00:24:49I found the marker and the signs.
00:24:51We won't have long to wait for the next sign now.
00:24:54See?
00:24:55The moon is just rising.
00:24:56I never heard of finding a mine by the light of the moon.
00:24:57It is 38 years to the day, and my brothers and I were here.
00:24:58My brothers and I were here.
00:24:59The moon is just rising.
00:25:00I never heard of finding a mine by the light of the moon.
00:25:03It is 38 years to the day, and my brothers and I were here.
00:25:05You won't forget our agreement.
00:25:06Huh?
00:25:07I am a Mexican.
00:25:08I cannot file a claim for this mine.
00:25:09I won't forget.
00:25:10I'll never forget.
00:25:11I'm sure you're doing.
00:25:12I found the marker and the signs.
00:25:13We won't have long to wait for the next sign now.
00:25:14See?
00:25:15The moon is just rising.
00:25:16I never heard of finding a mine by the light of the moon.
00:25:19It is 38 years to the day, and my brothers and I were here.
00:25:24You won't forget our agreement.
00:25:28Huh?
00:25:29I am a Mexican.
00:25:30I cannot file a claim for this mine.
00:25:33Oh, I won't forget.
00:25:35I file a claim as an American citizen and go 50-50.
00:25:38We must get to the ledge below.
00:25:58There's nothing here.
00:25:59It's been many years, but I'm sure this is the place.
00:26:02Maybe the old burr cellar is right.
00:26:04Maybe the engines did cover it up.
00:26:05We dig here.
00:26:09We dig here.
00:26:13We dig here.
00:26:17We dig here.
00:26:19We dig here.
00:26:30My old legs are killing me.
00:26:42I'm getting too old to be traipsing around these mountains.
00:26:46When we go back, let's go to Phoenix instead of away at Florence Junction.
00:26:50What do you say, Dutchie?
00:26:51You've never been to Phoenix, have you?
00:26:54A real live town.
00:26:56I remember once I...
00:26:58A real live town.
00:27:28A real live town.
00:27:58A real live town.
00:28:07Look at this gold!
00:28:11He's already mined!
00:28:12Gold, sacks of it already mined.
00:28:15We've got a storehouse.
00:28:42I tell you, it's the richest gold ore you've ever seen! Come on!
00:29:12Gold!
00:29:21Joe! What is it?
00:29:22The fellow found gold in superstition, Mrs. Thomas.
00:29:24Brung back nugget as big as your fist!
00:29:35It's a gold ore!
00:29:37Gold!
00:29:42Gold!
00:29:53What's happening?
00:29:54Parsons is weighing it now.
00:30:05Stranger, you've hit it rich.
00:30:08How much?
00:30:09That ore, I say, close to 40,000 a ton.
00:30:1240,000 a ton?
00:30:13That's bringing the California strike!
00:30:15How much?
00:30:1640,000 a ton!
00:30:17A bonanza!
00:30:1840!
00:30:19Can you imagine?
00:30:20A lot to buy up every borough in town.
00:30:21Hurry!
00:30:22How much?
00:30:2340,000.
00:30:2440,000?
00:30:25It's over 40,000.
00:30:26It's way over 40,000.
00:30:27Nearly 50,000.
00:30:28How much for what I brought in?
00:30:29Yeah, might less than 300 pounds.
00:30:31I'll give you 5,000 for it.
00:30:32It's worth six.
00:30:33Refined, maybe.
00:30:34As it is, no.
00:30:35Let's see.
00:30:36Stop crowding me, will you?
00:30:37All right.
00:30:38All right, five.
00:30:39What's your name?
00:30:40I have to have your name in this receipt.
00:30:43Walsh.
00:30:44Jacob Walsh.
00:30:45What's his name?
00:30:46He said his name was Jacob Walsh.
00:30:47Who is he?
00:30:48Jacob Walsh.
00:30:49Must be a Dutchman.
00:30:50Or a German.
00:30:51Yes.
00:30:52Yes.
00:30:53Yes.
00:30:54Yes.
00:30:55Yes.
00:30:56Yes.
00:30:57Yes.
00:30:58Yes.
00:30:59Yes.
00:31:00Yes.
00:31:01Yes.
00:31:02Yes.
00:31:03Yes.
00:31:04Yes.
00:31:05Yes.
00:31:06Yes.
00:31:07Yes.
00:31:08Yes.
00:31:10I was going to하ish him.
00:31:11Of an old man.
00:31:12Or a German.
00:31:13Yeah, that's what I said.
00:31:14A Dutchman.
00:31:15Make a pulse.
00:31:16Sign it.
00:31:21It's a receipt, Staten.
00:31:22I paid you $5,000 for 297 and 1⁄2 pounds of gold ore.
00:31:26You ain't paid me yet.
00:31:28Wiув.
00:31:29You've got to sign it.
00:31:30It's the law.
00:31:37Is he signing his name?
00:31:46Is he signing his name?
00:31:47I don't know.
00:31:48He isn't even signing his name.
00:31:50He can't even write his own name.
00:31:51He can't read or write.
00:31:54How do you like that, Julia?
00:31:56A stupid foreigner that can't even read or write finds a million-dollar gold mine.
00:31:59And you get $11 a week clerking in a hardware store.
00:32:04You and your high school diploma.
00:32:06Ha!
00:32:11And $10.50 makes $5,000.
00:32:14You're sure going to file a claim, ain't you?
00:32:15I'd like to talk to you about a deal you might find interesting.
00:32:17Whereabouts is it, Strikes?
00:32:19Are you going to file a claim, mister?
00:32:20Hey!
00:32:21Boy, you're really struck at once, huh?
00:32:23I'll bet that oar's worth more than Parson's shed.
00:32:26That gore's got some trouble.
00:32:28She got $5,000 just like a shed.
00:32:31That gore's got some trouble.
00:32:33She got some trouble just like a glass.
00:32:35That gore's got some trouble, right?
00:32:36Don't go!
00:32:37Don't go!
00:32:38I'll get away!
00:32:39Go!
00:32:40I got up!
00:32:41I can't take it!
00:32:42I can't take it!
00:32:43I can't take it!
00:32:44All right!
00:32:45Go!
00:32:46Go!
00:32:47Go!
00:32:48Go!
00:32:49Go!
00:32:50Go!
00:32:51Go!
00:32:52Go!
00:32:53Go!
00:32:54Go!
00:32:55Go!
00:32:56Go!
00:32:57Go!
00:32:58Go!
00:32:59Go!
00:33:00Go!
00:33:01Go!
00:33:02Go!
00:33:03Get off my bed.
00:33:14How many times must I tell you to stay out of my room unless you're invited?
00:33:17I've got a right to lie in your bed.
00:33:19I'm your husband.
00:33:21Come into the other room. I want to talk to you.
00:33:24Talk to me in here.
00:33:31Julia!
00:33:33That's right, Pete. Come in.
00:33:38All right. What do you want?
00:33:42Sedan.
00:33:48A man named Jacob Walser's just arrived in town.
00:33:52I want to meet him.
00:33:54Why?
00:33:57He's discovered gold.
00:33:59What do you want to meet him for? I've got a right to know.
00:34:01Really?
00:34:03Well, I have a right to some things, too.
00:34:05Like being sick and tired of running a bakery.
00:34:07Now, wait a minute, Junior.
00:34:08You've had four years to do something about getting me out of here, Pete.
00:34:10I've had bad luck. I'm doing the best I can.
00:34:12Yes, you've done very well.
00:34:14Have you been able to keep a job?
00:34:16Have you replaced our savings?
00:34:18You so cleverly invested in grazing land no animal could live on.
00:34:22Have you, Pete?
00:34:22That wasn't my fault. I got swindled.
00:34:24No.
00:34:25I got swindled.
00:34:27So now you're going to bring that man here.
00:34:30Oh, no. I won't, Julia.
00:34:32Yes, you will.
00:34:33Still that unsolved murder in Milwaukee.
00:34:40All right.
00:34:41Good.
00:34:44Of course, he's not to know that I'm married to you.
00:34:46But you are married to me.
00:34:51Yes, but he's not to know.
00:34:54You understand, Pete.
00:34:56What do you want of him?
00:34:58I'm not sure yet.
00:35:00But I am sure I'm not going to stay here and dry up
00:35:02like the other women in this filthy town.
00:35:05Look, I'll get a job driving the stage to Tucson
00:35:07or maybe mining up in Goldfield.
00:35:08Yes, yes. He's at Luke Saloon now.
00:35:11Buy him drinks.
00:35:13Or whatever he wants.
00:35:14Just see that I made him Pete.
00:35:22Pete?
00:35:30There's some money on the floor.
00:35:32He's been here close to eight hours.
00:35:55How long can he go on?
00:35:56Come on, Walsh.
00:35:57Tell us where the...
00:35:58Come on, Walsh.
00:35:59Tell us where the...
00:36:00Come on, Walsh.
00:36:01Tell us where the...
00:36:02Yeah!
00:36:03Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:36:05Very good, very good.
00:36:12How about buying you a drink, mister?
00:36:13I buy my own drinks.
00:36:15I could buy the whole place if I wanted to.
00:36:17Where'd you strike it rich, Nutsi?
00:36:18Come on, tell us.
00:36:19You want to hear about the mine, huh?
00:36:20Is there much of this high-grade ore, Walsh?
00:36:23That?
00:36:24That's nothing.
00:36:25Why, that's just some of the loose stuff
00:36:27I picked up on the outside.
00:36:29On the outside?
00:36:30Hey, Walsh, you mean on the outside?
00:36:32Yeah.
00:36:33On the inside of the mine,
00:36:35there's a vein of gold as thick as...
00:36:38As thick as her waist.
00:36:41Where is it?
00:36:42Come on, tell us.
00:36:44All right, I'll tell you.
00:36:49From the mine,
00:36:50you can see the old military trail.
00:36:52Yeah?
00:36:52Then it is in superstition.
00:36:53Yeah.
00:36:54But from the trail,
00:36:55you can't see the mine.
00:36:57You've been teasing and hosting us
00:36:58around all night, Walsh.
00:37:00Now you tell us where you struck it rich
00:37:02or shut up.
00:37:03Put up or shut up.
00:37:04That's telling you.
00:37:05Yeah, it's about time
00:37:06somebody told him off.
00:37:08Hello, Hart.
00:37:10Maybe I'll file a claim.
00:37:11What?
00:37:13Yeah, you'd like that, wouldn't you?
00:37:15Yeah, you'd know right where to look.
00:37:17That'd make it easy for you.
00:37:18Well, come on up and try to find it.
00:37:21I'll be waiting for you.
00:37:22I'll give you a real welcome.
00:37:24Hey!
00:37:28That's telling him, Walsh.
00:37:30How about buying you a drink?
00:37:31He told you before he can buy his own drinks.
00:37:33Come on, honey.
00:37:34Are you really a Dutchman, honey?
00:37:41I bet Elsie was a German.
00:37:42Was I right?
00:37:45In the Dutch?
00:37:47What, honey?
00:37:51Bring me a drink.
00:37:56I had enough of that Dutchman tonight.
00:37:58I bet you'd get awful lonesome up in the mountains all alone.
00:38:15It ain't natural for a man to be by himself all the time, honey.
00:38:18If you go back to your mind, maybe you ought to take a little company.
00:38:25Maybe like taking Lucille with you.
00:38:30Ow!
00:38:30You're just like all the rest.
00:38:32All you want is my gold.
00:38:33That's all any of you want.
00:38:35I don't want none of your gold, mister.
00:38:36Not tonight.
00:38:37Now get out of my place.
00:38:38You dirty!
00:38:39Stop it, Lucille.
00:38:40You heard me.
00:38:41Get out!
00:38:41All right.
00:38:50You won't let me stay in, then I won't let you come out.
00:38:56He's bluffing.
00:39:00Relax, boss.
00:39:01Another half minute, he'll fall on his face.
00:39:03He's bluffing.
00:39:33Get out of here, you drunken...
00:40:03Come on, Jim.
00:40:12Come on, Jim, let's get it.
00:40:17Where'd he go?
00:40:18Well, a shirt man here.
00:40:19I'm sorry, Tucker.
00:40:39He disappeared, Julia.
00:40:40Shh, not so loud, Pete.
00:40:41I tried to bring him home.
00:40:42He's inside now, unconscious, passed out here on the street.
00:40:45Now, please don't come back until I send for you.
00:40:47Please.
00:40:49Good night, Pete.
00:41:17Well, at last.
00:41:19Good morning.
00:41:20How do you feel now?
00:41:25Here's some coffee.
00:41:27A fresh roll.
00:41:30You may wash up in there.
00:41:32How do you love?
00:41:34You might.
00:41:36Few money.
00:41:37No.
00:41:38We begin in dubited moment.
00:41:42Please.
00:42:43Very glad you're feeling better now.
00:42:48My name is Jacob Walsh.
00:42:51I'm glad to know you, Mr. Walsh.
00:42:52I'm Julia Thomas.
00:42:55You do not know who I am.
00:42:58No, should I?
00:43:00Everybody in town's talking about me.
00:43:02Oh, why?
00:43:03I found a bonanza.
00:43:05What?
00:43:06Gold.
00:43:07I found the richest gold mine in the world.
00:43:10Oh, well, that's nice.
00:43:12Would you like some more coffee?
00:43:14You have no interest.
00:43:15Should I have?
00:43:16Well, Mr. Walsh, I don't know anything about gold mines.
00:43:20I just know about baking and trying to run my little shop.
00:43:23Oh, if you'll excuse me, I do have to get the baking done.
00:43:27You don't even want to know where my mine is.
00:43:31I wouldn't know a gold mine if I fell into one.
00:43:33I'm very much obliged to you.
00:43:38You're welcome.
00:43:39Danke schön.
00:43:40Bitte schön.
00:43:41May I call upon you sometime?
00:44:00Well, I...
00:44:01This evening.
00:44:02All right, if you wish.
00:44:07Excuse me.
00:44:08Here.
00:44:11Good morning, Mrs. Butler.
00:44:13How much are them?
00:44:15Twenty cents a dozen per dollar.
00:44:17Regist.
00:44:18And them?
00:44:19The same.
00:44:20You ought to be ashamed charging such prices.
00:44:23But, Mrs. Butler, they're the lowest in town.
00:44:24Ever since that gold strike, everybody's charging four times what things it's worth,
00:44:28and you ain't no different.
00:44:29Criminals, all of you.
00:44:32Give me half a dozen of them.
00:44:34Very well.
00:44:36The freshest ones, mind you.
00:44:37All this stuff's been sold.
00:44:39What?
00:44:39It belongs to me.
00:44:40Well, you can't do it.
00:44:41And you get out.
00:44:42You can't talk to me.
00:44:42You get out.
00:44:43You get out.
00:44:43I won't stand.
00:44:43You get out and you stay out.
00:44:45Well.
00:44:49Hairballs.
00:44:51You shouldn't have done that.
00:44:53She was one of my best customers.
00:44:55You let people talk to you that way.
00:44:57Well, when a woman has to support herself, it's necessary to endure many unpleasant things.
00:45:02I buy everything.
00:45:04Well, really, there's no...
00:45:05It's for sale.
00:45:06Yes.
00:45:06All right.
00:45:06All right.
00:45:06I buy everything.
00:45:07You wrap it up.
00:45:08I take it with me.
00:45:09Everything.
00:45:10Here.
00:45:10Yeah.
00:45:11Here.
00:45:11Here.
00:45:11Here.
00:45:11Here.
00:45:11Here.
00:45:24Hey.
00:45:25Hey.
00:45:26You like cookies?
00:45:27Yes, sir.
00:45:27Here.
00:45:29Oh.
00:45:30Here.
00:45:30All of them?
00:45:31Yeah.
00:45:32Here.
00:46:02Good evening.
00:46:22Good evening.
00:46:24I... gumdrops.
00:46:30Thank you, hon.
00:46:32Won't you come in?
00:46:34Oh, please.
00:46:48Won't you sit down?
00:46:50I'm very much obliged to you for taking me in last night.
00:46:54Oh, it was nothing at all. I'm very much obliged to you.
00:46:56Why?
00:46:58For the biggest day's business I've had since I came to Phoenix.
00:47:00I've sold out.
00:47:10Would you like to see the album?
00:47:12Would you like to see the album?
00:47:18Yes, I... I would.
00:47:22This is my mother. My father. He died when I was seven.
00:47:26That was after they came from Germany.
00:47:28Oh, dear. Not that one.
00:47:30Oh, no.
00:47:32I keep meaning to take it out of the land.
00:47:34It's so embarrassing.
00:47:36You grew up fine.
00:47:38Well, let me see.
00:47:40I was born and raised in Milwaukee.
00:47:44This is the house we lived in.
00:47:46And, uh, this is my mother's uncle.
00:47:48He's in Dresden now.
00:47:50And this is, uh...
00:47:52When did you come here?
00:47:54Oh, about four years ago.
00:47:55Oh, dear. Not that one.
00:47:56Oh, dear. Not that one.
00:47:58Oh, no. I keep meaning to take it out of the land.
00:48:00It's so embarrassing.
00:48:02Yeah. You grew up fine.
00:48:04Well, let me see.
00:48:06I was, uh, born and raised in Milwaukee.
00:48:08This is the house we lived in.
00:48:10And, uh, this is my mother's uncle.
00:48:12And this is, uh...
00:48:14When did you come here?
00:48:15Oh, about four years ago.
00:48:17Uh, uh, why?
00:48:18Why did you come here?
00:48:20Well, after my mother passed away, I...
00:48:22I just didn't want to stay there anymore.
00:48:24I thought this was as good a place as any
00:48:26for a woman to make her own way.
00:48:29Well...
00:48:31Now, this is...
00:48:37Herr Wals, do you like music?
00:48:40Who doesn't like music?
00:49:10Well...
00:49:17Herr Wals!
00:49:22I'm sorry.
00:49:23Good night.
00:49:24Please.
00:49:25Please, I...
00:49:26I didn't want to make you angry.
00:49:28It was just that you are so very, very beautiful.
00:49:30Good night, Herr Wals.
00:49:35Don't assume you can take liberties simply because I'm a businesswoman living,
00:49:39because I'm a businesswoman living alone.
00:49:41May I call upon you again?
00:49:43Good night.
00:49:47You may use this door.
00:49:48Please, may I call upon you again?

00:55:02You don't care for him?
00:55:04No. I love you, Jacob.
00:55:06What's his name?
00:55:08Pete. Pete Thomas.
00:55:12Will he give you a divorce?
00:55:14Divorce?
00:55:16For money, will he give you a divorce?
00:55:18Well, I...
00:55:20I don't know.
00:55:22Here.
00:55:24There's $2,000.
00:55:26We'll set a limit, say $5,000.
00:55:28Will that be enough for him?
00:55:30Perhaps.
00:55:31But he must sign a paper giving you a divorce.
00:55:34You see, I...
00:55:36I know about these things.
00:55:38I was married once myself.
00:55:40My wife divorced me.
00:55:42He took my daughter away from me.
00:55:44All because my wife didn't sign a paper.
00:55:46So he must sign that paper
00:55:48before he gets a penny of money.
00:55:50Now, you understand that?
00:55:51Yes.
00:55:52Now, will you make the arrangements?
00:55:53No, no. I'll do it myself.
00:55:54No.
00:55:55No, Jacob. I know I can.
00:55:56Good.
00:55:57When did he get back?
00:56:00Tonight.
00:56:01Tonight.
00:56:02What is it, Jacob?
00:56:05I'm going back to the mine tonight
00:56:06to get more money for us.
00:56:10Oh, I love you.
00:56:12I love you, Julie.
00:56:14And I want to marry you.
00:56:24Soon it will be just you and I.
00:56:27Yes, Jacob.
00:56:28Just you and I.
00:56:34Hey! Everybody!
00:56:36I just saw the Dutchman.
00:56:38He woke up old man Parsons.
00:56:40Made him open up his store
00:56:41as soon as he could get his grub.
00:56:42Then I saw him head for the corral.
00:56:43He's on his way back to the mine!
00:56:45I don't know!
00:56:47I don't know!
00:56:49Yes!
00:56:50Go after him!
00:56:51Ha, ha, ha!
00:56:52Give me a drink.
00:56:53One for the road.
00:56:54You and your big mouth.
00:56:55You wreck our business.
00:56:56Well, we gotta find that mine.
00:56:57Ha, ha, ha!
00:56:59Hey.
00:57:01Hey.
00:57:02Hey.
00:57:03Hey.
00:57:04Hey, come on, we go.
00:57:05Come on, wake up.
00:57:08Wake up.
00:57:09I want you to get my burrows ready.
00:57:11Oh, it's you.
00:57:13What for?
00:57:14You just got back.
00:57:16It ain't decent waking a man in the middle of the night.
00:57:20Not for burrows.
00:57:22Hey, do you know a Pete Thomas?
00:57:28I ain't no gossip.
00:57:29I mind my own business.
00:57:30I didn't ask you for any gossip.
00:57:32I asked you if you knew him.
00:57:34Well, we say howdy when we meet.
00:57:39Ain't seen him much lately.
00:57:41He ain't use no animals for a spell.
00:57:44How long's he been here?
00:57:46Shucks, I don't know.
00:57:47Three, four years, I guess.
00:57:49Ever since him and his wife came here from Milwaukee.
00:57:53Well, I'll start rounding up them dang barrels for you now.
00:57:56I don't see why you can't wait till morning, though.
00:58:00Hey, there.
00:58:01Hey, there, fella.
00:58:03Huh.
00:58:04Where'd he go?
00:58:05Oh, he's getting old.
00:58:06Can't you remember him going?
00:58:08Corral again.
00:58:09Hey, fella.
00:58:15Hey, Pete.
00:58:16It's safe to go home now.
00:58:19The Dutchman's gone.
00:58:21Well, Julia, did you have a nice evening?
00:58:40Did he pay off?
00:58:41Or do you have to see him just once more?
00:58:42Pete, I'm glad you're back.
00:58:43He gave me this.
00:58:44Two thousand dollars.
00:58:45And there'll be more.
00:58:46This is for you, Pete.
00:58:47And the rest that's coming.
00:58:48More than that if you want it.
00:58:49I don't want his money.
00:58:50Do you understand?
00:58:51Let go of me, Pete, and listen.
00:58:52No, you listen to me for a change.
00:58:53You're through with him.
00:58:54And this time I'll make sure of it.
00:58:55Absolutely sure of it.
00:58:56What do you mean?
00:58:57When he comes back from the mine,
00:58:58he'll find me here.
00:58:59Where I belong.
00:59:00I'll tell him how you played him for a sucker.
00:59:01That you like all the rest, only worse.
00:59:02You pretend to be decent.
00:59:03I'll tell him the whole rotten story.
00:59:04From beginning to end.
00:59:05The whole story, Pete?
00:59:06Yes, including the murder.
00:59:07The murder.
00:59:08The murder.
00:59:09The murder.
00:59:10The murder.
00:59:11The murder.
00:59:12The murder.
00:59:13The murder.
00:59:14The murder.
00:59:15The murder.
00:59:16The murder.
00:59:17The murder.
00:59:18The murder.
00:59:19The murder.
00:59:20The murder.
00:59:21The murder.
00:59:22The murder.
00:59:23The murder.
00:59:24The murder.
00:59:25The murder.
00:59:26The murder.
00:59:27It won't matter if you turn me in.
00:59:29It won't matter at all.
00:59:31Because when I'm through with him,
00:59:32I'll have a second one to my credit.
00:59:34Jacob Waltz.
00:59:35Pete.
00:59:36Pete, you've got to listen to me.
00:59:39Try to buy me off, would he?
00:59:40Well he can't do it.
00:59:42Wait a minute.
00:59:43Whose idea was it?
00:59:45Did he think it up all by himself?
00:59:47No, he didn't.
00:59:49No, he didn't.
00:59:51It was my idea, all mine.
00:59:53I don't like those kind of ideas.
00:59:56I'll kill him before he gets out of town.
00:59:58Pete, don't be silly.
01:00:01The only way I could get the money was to tell him you could be bought off.
01:00:04You're still my wife.
01:00:06Oh, Pete.
01:00:09I'm not lying to you.
01:00:11He thinks you'll give me a divorce for money.
01:00:14There was no other way of getting it.
01:00:19Don't you understand?
01:00:28Julia, could it be that it isn't just his gold you're interested in?
01:00:31That you've been lying to me?
01:00:33Could that be?
01:00:34Don't be a fool.
01:00:35Answer me. Are you in love with him?
01:00:37No.
01:00:38Answer me.
01:00:39I've told you over and over again, all I want is his gold.
01:00:42For us, Pete.
01:00:44I don't want anything from him.
01:00:46Not even his mind?
01:00:48Once I find out where it is, he'll be no problem to us.
01:00:52Julia, you aren't lying to me.
01:00:54No.
01:00:55You're really leaving tonight?
01:00:56Yeah.
01:00:57The guy said you're on the way back to the mine, Dutchie.
01:00:58Yeah.
01:00:59When are you leaving?
01:01:00Oh, what's the matter, Dutchie?
01:01:01Oh, what's the matter, Dutchie?
01:01:06Come on, Waltz.
01:01:07We're friends.
01:01:08You're really leaving tonight?
01:01:19Yeah, the guy said you're on the way back to the mine, Dutchie.
01:01:21Yeah, when you're leaving?
01:01:23Oh, what's the matter, Dutchie?
01:01:28Come on, Walt.
01:01:29We're friends.
01:01:38You had enough now to kill a horse.
01:01:40Why don't you take your business somewhere else?
01:01:43Ain't they buying gold in Tucson or other places?
01:01:48Every time you leave Phoenix, you take half the town with you.
01:01:51Everybody trying to follow you and find out where that mine is.
01:01:54I'll bet there's a hundred of our customers waiting to follow you into that mountain right now.
01:01:59Take your gold and go to some other town.
01:02:01You'll ruin our business coming here.
01:02:06Get me up.
01:02:08A pencil and a piece of paper.
01:02:38There's Weaver's Needle.
01:02:41There's the runway.
01:02:42That's the ledge about 200 yards from the cactus marker.
01:02:45Mine's just below that.
01:02:46I see.
01:02:47I'm not coming back to Phoenix.
01:02:49What?
01:02:50Too many people following me out of town.
01:02:52Crowds getting bigger all the time, getting harder to lose on the trail.
01:02:55So we'll meet somewhere else.
01:02:56Doesn't make any difference where.
01:02:57But, Jacob, I thought...
01:02:59You can get a divorce anywhere.
01:03:00You can leave your husband the same way my wife left me.
01:03:04Is there anything wrong with that?
01:03:06No.
01:03:06Only I...
01:03:07Of course, if you didn't mean what you said about us.
01:03:10If you lied.
01:03:12Oh, no.
01:03:12I did mean it, Jacob.
01:03:15I did.
01:03:16There's no sense giving him any money.
01:03:17I thought it over.
01:03:19Please, can't I go with you now?
01:03:21Tonight...
01:03:21I'd never be able to lose those people on the trail if you were along with me.
01:03:24Jacob, you're so strange.
01:03:25Will you meet me at the minor, won't you?
01:03:27Yes, of course, I'll meet you.
01:03:28But it may take me two or three extra days because of the crowd that'll be following.
01:03:31You'll be there ahead of me.
01:03:32Yes, I'll be waiting at the minor for you.
01:03:34What did you want?
01:03:44What did you come back for?
01:03:45Oh, nothing.
01:03:45Just to see me again.
01:03:53Finding on running out of me, Julia?
01:03:55Oh, no, Pete.
01:03:57You know I wouldn't go without you.
01:03:59I do now.
01:04:00And I know something else.
01:04:01You're in love with him.
01:04:02You've been lying to me about that, too.
01:04:05But we're going to the mine together.
01:04:07They're going to be there when I kill him.
01:04:10You understand?
01:04:32Let me see that map again.
01:04:48There's Weaver's Needle.
01:04:49We're almost there.
01:04:51And I can hardly wait.
01:04:53We're going to be there.
01:04:56Let's go.
01:04:56Let's go.
01:04:57Let's go, Robert.
01:04:57Oh, my God.
01:05:27This is it. This is the runway he told you about.
01:05:30Yes.
01:05:32What if he's here?
01:05:33He said it to take him two or three extra days.
01:05:36Anyway, he expects me.
01:05:38If he is here, you get him out where I can see him.
01:05:57Jacob, Jacob!
01:06:20Pete!
01:06:22Pete, come on down.
01:06:24It's all right. He's not here.
01:06:27Look at it, Junior.
01:06:29Just look at it.
01:06:31Oh, I see why he always got back to town so soon.
01:06:34All he had to do was pick it up.
01:06:37Pete.
01:06:38It's worth millions.
01:06:40Bring the burrows down here.
01:06:42The runway we came down is the only way on or off this ledge.
01:06:46Well, go on.
01:06:48He was so anxious to be ready for him.
01:06:50Yeah, I'll do it.
01:06:52I'll do it.
01:06:53I'll do it.
01:06:54I'll do it.
01:06:55I'll do it for him.
01:06:57Yeah.
01:06:59You're right.
01:07:00Julia!
01:07:02They're gone!
01:07:04Everything's gone!
01:07:05What?
01:07:06Our supplies!
01:07:07The food!
01:07:08The water!
01:07:09Everything!
01:07:10It's gone!
01:07:11Come on.
01:07:12Come on.
01:07:13Come on.
01:07:14Come on.
01:07:15Come on.
01:07:16Come on.
01:07:17Come on.
01:07:18Come on.
01:07:19Julia!
01:07:20They're gone.
01:07:21Everything's gone.
01:07:22What?
01:07:23Our supplies.
01:07:24The food.
01:07:25The water.
01:07:26Everything.
01:07:27It's gone.
01:07:28Maybe the Burroughs just wandered away.
01:07:31No.
01:07:32They were tired of.
01:07:33He's already here.
01:07:34He knows.
01:07:35Call to him.
01:07:36Get him out in the open.
01:07:37Go on.
01:07:41Jacob!
01:07:42Where are you?
01:07:47Jacob!
01:07:48Jacob!
01:08:05Jacob!
01:08:06Jacob!
01:08:11Jacob, Jacob, I didn't want to bring him.
01:08:15I didn't want to, Jacob.
01:08:41Ha! Ha! Ha!
01:09:11Jacob, Jacob, Jacob, Jacob.
01:09:41Jacob, listen to me.
01:09:43I didn't want to bring him. He made me do it.
01:09:46Please, darling, help me.
01:09:48Quick before he finds out I'm gone.
01:09:50Oh, please, Jacob.
01:09:58You fool!
01:10:11Get away from me!
01:10:19Get away from me!
01:10:41I means I'll take them.
01:10:43I'll take him.
01:10:47I'll take him.
01:10:48olare!
01:10:50I can't quite see him!
01:10:52I'll take him.
01:10:54I'll take him.
01:10:56I'll take him.
01:10:58I'll take him.
01:10:59What are you doing?
01:11:04I'll take him.
01:11:06I'll take him.
01:11:07I'll take him.
01:11:10All right, what are you waiting for?
01:11:24Get it over with.
01:11:40Pete.
01:11:53Pete, ask him for water.
01:11:57Go on.
01:11:58Pete.
01:12:10Pete, ask him for water.
01:12:40Martin.
01:13:10Oh, my God.
01:13:40You want her?
01:13:54Take her!
01:13:56You can have her!
01:14:01Nobody wants you.
01:14:03From the beginning, it was her idea.
01:14:08I don't want your gold.
01:14:09I never did.
01:14:11If you want her, take her.
01:14:12You can have her.
01:14:13Take her!
01:14:26You see, Jacob?
01:14:28I've gotten rid of him.
01:14:29I killed him for you.
01:14:30How do you know I wasn't lying to you?
01:14:38It's all over.
01:14:40It's just you and me now, Jacob.
01:14:42Remember?
01:14:43Just like you wanted it.
01:14:52Jacob, you love me.
01:14:54You said you did.
01:14:56We can be married now, just like you said.
01:15:02I wasn't lying to you, Jacob.
01:15:05He forced me to bring him with me.
01:15:08I didn't want to.
01:15:09I didn't want to.
01:15:11Jacob, you've got to believe me.
01:15:14You've got to.
01:15:15I proved I loved you when I killed him.
01:15:21Please.
01:15:23Please help me.
01:15:25Jacob, I want you.
01:15:28I want you.
01:15:29I want you.
01:15:29All you want to do is my gold.
01:15:42Well, now you got it.
01:15:44You got it!
01:15:45I want you.
01:16:09I want you.
01:16:10Come on.
01:16:40Come on.
01:17:03This record only goes back to 1912.
01:17:05Well, Arizona didn't become a state till then.
01:17:07But you got the right dope from those old newspapers.
01:17:10I remember for a fact it was in 1910,
01:17:13two years before we had a coroner's office.
01:17:15What are you two talking about?
01:17:16I'm checking up on a female skeleton found a superstition.
01:17:19Well, if Bill Bates was right, that skeleton was Julia Thomas's,
01:17:22the woman my grandfather was in love with.
01:17:24Oh, say, if you don't stop harping about this Waltz business,
01:17:27somebody's going to swear out a lunacy complaint.
01:17:30But, Ray, I've got a lot to go on now.
01:17:32First I found that rifle.
01:17:33Then I checked on the stories of the old folks up at the Pioneer's home.
01:17:36I even learned that an earthquake did hit superstition.
01:17:38It was on May 3rd, 1887.
01:17:40Who cares?
01:17:40Well, he does.
01:17:41I'm going back to that canyon where I find that rifle.
01:17:43Go on, fellas.
01:17:48Might as well clear off one of my tables.
01:17:50Be just my luck they bring him in on Sunday.
01:17:54Hiya.
01:17:55Did you find your mine yet?
01:17:56Nope.
01:17:57Well, I'm on my way back to superstition right now.
01:17:59You better be careful.
01:18:00Well, there's still a killer up there.
01:18:01I got nothing to lose except my life.
01:18:09The sky clouded up, and the wind tried to blow a scare into me
01:18:13as I made my way back to the treasure signs.
01:18:17Three days later, the clouds got out of the sky and into my brain.
01:18:22I got lost.
01:18:24I couldn't even find the canyon where I'd uncovered the old gun.
01:18:27Like an idiot, I fumbled in and out of one gorge after another,
01:18:31pushing along with no more sense or reason than if I'd been on a treadmill.
01:18:35I knew I had to locate the rock called Weaver's Needle
01:18:38before I could even start looking for the lost mine.
01:18:41Then, with sheer blind luck, I walked right into it.
01:18:45Here was a spot I'd found the gun, killed the rattlesnake,
01:18:48and I had my starting point.
01:18:50A short distance away, I found a cliff
01:18:53from which I could see the old military trail.
01:18:56Jacob Waltz had said that from his mind, he could see the trail,
01:18:59but from the trail, nobody could see the mine.
01:19:01I set out to prove he'd told the truth.
01:19:04Now, I'm a guy who gets dizzy just standing on a high curb.
01:19:08But even when the ground dropped out from under me like a deceitful friend,
01:19:12I kept scrambling along the cliffside, keeping the trail in sight.
01:19:16When you're sick with gold fever, you have no patience with caution.
01:19:19All you think about is getting your hooks into that glittering pot of gold
01:19:23at the end of the rainbow.
01:19:24I followed the edge of that cliff,
01:19:27staying within view of the trail for the next three days.
01:19:30My fever began to go down as discouragement set in,
01:19:33and I was about ready to give up and go home
01:19:36when suddenly I came on a wide ledge.
01:19:38Gradually, it dawned on me that here, the trail was in sight,
01:19:41but that a mine couldn't be seen from below.
01:19:43Then I found the map, the strange map carved in a stone.
01:19:46This was something I hadn't expected.
01:19:50I got as excited as a poker player filling an inside straight flush.
01:19:54They look like old Spanish markings, a sort of master map of the region.
01:19:58But the doodles didn't make any sense to me because I didn't know how to read them.
01:20:01Then I found that hole and realized it had been drilled into the rock for some reason.
01:20:06I didn't have any idea what the reason could be,
01:20:08but I picked up a stick and began probing to try and find out.
01:20:13I peered along the stick,
01:20:14but its direction pointed out nothing I hadn't seen before.
01:20:18Then I discovered, though it looked like just a single hole on the outside,
01:20:22there were actually several on the inside.
01:20:25My second look didn't lead anyplace either,
01:20:27but the third started bells ringing in my head.
01:20:30It pointed my eyes at a strange kind of peak,
01:20:32a startling rock formation with a window in its top.
01:20:35I felt as if Santa Claus had just climbed down my chimney.
01:20:39I began making tracks for that peak.
01:20:43As I clawed and climbed my way toward the window above,
01:20:47one thought kept repeating itself.
01:20:49Nobody, not Ray Coven, the sheriff, Bill Bates,
01:20:52nobody had ever mentioned the weird map cut in the rocks.
01:20:56Or this peak that had been pointed out by the stick in the hole.
01:20:59I'd discovered these things all by myself.
01:21:02What I knew was top secret,
01:21:04private knowledge for Barry Storm.
01:21:06I felt sure that at last,
01:21:08finally, I was on the express road to the Lost Dutchman,
01:21:12to my grandfather's fabulous mine,
01:21:14where I'd find lumps of gold piled up like rubble.
01:21:18I was so dreamy,
01:21:19I figured all I had to do was crawl through that window,
01:21:21and the mine was on the other side.
01:21:24But there wasn't any mine.
01:21:25There was nothing.
01:21:27I figured I'd crawl behind another eight ball.
01:21:29Then I realized this arch was man-made.
01:21:32It did add up to something.
01:21:33And when I saw my shadow on the valley floor,
01:21:35I knew this window was the key to the goal.
01:21:38My whole future was in that square of light below.
01:21:41I raced back to the wall map to fix its location in my mind,
01:21:45then get started on that last lap to fame and fortune.
01:21:48But something had changed.
01:21:51It wasn't like I'd left it.
01:21:53Looking for this?
01:21:54Ray, what are you doing here?
01:21:59Looking for you.
01:22:00What for? Ray, I got it.
01:22:02I found a window cutting the rock.
01:22:03It's a sort of a light sign.
01:22:05It casts a shadow that points to a spot
01:22:07where the gold may be buried.
01:22:09And the spot is...
01:22:11Gone.
01:22:15Of course, it may not mean anything at all.
01:22:17Buckley.
01:22:19What'd you come back for?
01:22:22Another murder.
01:22:26Drop your gun belt.
01:22:33You shut up fast when you thought you found something, didn't you?
01:22:38You don't want a partner, neither do I.
01:22:41You kill Buckley.
01:22:43I've been looking for that gold for 20 years, Storm.
01:22:46If anybody's going to get it, it's going to be me.
01:22:49You're right about that light sign.
01:22:51And some night, it's going to show me where the gold is.
01:22:54Turn around.
01:23:01Start walking.
01:23:06We'll send a posse in after you in a couple of weeks.
01:23:09No murder here.
01:23:10Your bones will show you just died of a bad fall.
01:23:13Keep walking.
01:23:16Right to the end.
01:23:43Come on.
01:23:44Come on.
01:23:45Come on.
01:23:46Come on.
01:23:47Come on.
01:23:48Come on.
01:23:49Come on.
01:23:50Come on.
01:23:51Come on.
01:23:52Come on.
01:23:53Come on.
01:23:54Come on.
01:23:55Come on.
01:23:56Come on.
01:23:57Come on.
01:23:58Come on.
01:23:59Come on.
01:24:00Come on.
01:24:01Come on.
01:24:02Come on.
01:24:03Come on.
01:24:04Come on.
01:24:05Come on.
01:24:06Come on.
01:24:07Come on.
01:24:08Come on.
01:24:09Come on.
01:24:10Come on.
01:24:40Come on.
01:25:10Come on.
01:25:40Come on.
01:25:50Coben makes victim number 21.
01:25:52Good thing Walter trailed you, you'd still be explaining this.
01:25:56Too bad he didn't get up in time to help you.
01:25:59But why were you having me tailed?
01:26:01I wasn't.
01:26:02I was after Ray.
01:26:04It wasn't any accident I sent Walter with you the first time.
01:26:08Ray had a funny habit of being out of the office whenever these murders happened.
01:26:12And he was always so fast locating the bodies.
01:26:15I stayed behind the first time after Coben told me to go back.
01:26:18When I saw him raise his gun about to shoot you, I knew he was the killer.
01:26:22Then you've been using me for a clade pigeon.
01:26:25Kinda.
01:26:26I couldn't arrest my own deputy just on no one.
01:26:29I had to prove Coben was the murderer.
01:26:32That's why I was waiting for you to go in again.
01:26:34I knew if you got too close he'd have to make a pass at you.
01:26:38Well, let's get going.
01:26:40I want to be out of here before dark.
01:26:42I'm not going with you.
01:26:45I got a date up there tonight.
01:26:51Mind a little company?
01:27:02Ought it be kinda interesting watching a man just dig up 20 million dollars.
01:27:07All I'm waiting for is that full moon.
01:27:11When it comes through that window, it'll light up the patch of ground where I'm to dig.
01:27:16That's all I'll need.
01:27:29Look at it.
01:27:33I'm standing right in the center of it.
01:27:35Right here.
01:27:36This is where I dig.
01:27:43My grandfather's gold.
01:27:4520 million bucks worth.
01:27:57It's moved.
01:27:58It was here, that square light.
01:27:59Now it's there.
01:28:07You hadn't figured on that, huh, Storm?
01:28:10You forgot the moon and earth keep moving.
01:28:13At this rate, you're gonna have to dig up the whole mountain, meet a bulldozer.
01:28:17That earthquake changed things, too.
01:28:20That's why Ray Coven never found the mine.
01:28:23That's why you'll never find it.
01:28:26That's right.
01:28:27If it is the moon that'll point out that gold, it'll only do it once a year.
01:28:30On the anniversary of the night the Peraldas made that sign.
01:28:34That's a catch.
01:28:36When was that sign made?
01:28:38What night?
01:28:39What hour?
01:28:40What moment?
01:28:41If I could figure that out, I'd hit the jackpot.
01:28:44And if you did, this county would need a new sheriff.
01:28:47Because I'd be right there digging with you.
01:28:49Come on, let's go.
01:28:50Well, that's the story, as far as I'm concerned.
01:28:54The whole biography of Superstition Mountain won't be finished till somebody takes that gold away from her.
01:29:00The treasure signs, the marker, the light sign, they're all genuine.
01:29:06Maybe you can figure out that strange map carved in the stone.
01:29:10I've got a hunch it holds the key to the fortune.
01:29:13Anyway, everything's all there in the mountain.
01:29:16And if you're interested, you might like to know that any citizen of the United States has the legal right to search for gold.
01:29:23And you don't have to pay anybody for the privilege.
01:29:25If you should find Superstition's treasure, the state of Arizona and the government of the United States will recognize your claim to it.
01:29:32Like I said at the beginning, if you'd like to pick up $20 million, I'll show you where to look.
01:29:39Well, I've shown you.
01:29:46If that costs of $20 million or $ некоторые, the master or $30 million is now going to fall through.
01:29:55Yes.
01:29:56And what leads to $15 million is now going to be $45 million for several years worth £65 million.
01:30:00If you wish to increase this $ physique million and $16 million, you might get into the drop of Ips program.
01:30:02But not the target at that point!
01:30:03The tier in red valley, the Zentenoordbren, cantidad is screwed out so much more than $ hero.
01:30:05And may not cover their reach now to $ Mog.
