00:00THE END
00:30Oh, come in.
00:37Hey, boy.
00:38Paladin.
00:39It's a grim day, isn't it?
00:41Looks like rain.
00:42I like rain, Mr. Paladin.
00:44Light rain, fine.
00:45But I don't like cold.
00:50Half-breed goes berserk.
00:52Montes de Sangres, New Mexico.
00:54Half-breed Comanche Indian today reverted to savagery,
00:57killing two men, wounding another.
00:58On being served with a notice to evict land
01:01on which he was illegally squatting,
01:04Thomas Orday, using a shotgun loaded with heavy balls,
01:06deliberately fired on and murdered
01:08Sheriff John Finn and Bert Ormsby, a cowboy.
01:11Ormsby's employer, John Dundee,
01:13badly wounded by the same blast,
01:14says that he will see the murderer hung.
01:16Dundee is a former Texas Ranger and Indian fighter.
01:21New Mexico.
01:22They say that's very warm there, Mr. Paladin.
01:24And the sun shines all the time.
01:27Well, hey, boy, the Montes de Sangres country is...
01:32Oh, I'd say it averages about 8,000 feet in altitude.
01:35Some of the most beautiful mountain country in the world.
01:38Temperature can get down to about 40 below zero,
01:43and the snow can be as much as 10 feet deep.
01:46Now, I do need an assistant on this trip, hey, boy.
01:49Oh, excuse me, Mr. Paladin.
01:51I'm very busy.
01:52Oh.
01:52Oh.
02:22Yes?
02:32That's right.
02:33Mr. Dundee, I trust you'll excuse my beard.
02:38Your shaving seems a little nonsensical.
02:41All the snow in the mountains.
02:43All of us?
02:44Tony.
02:45Yes, sir.
02:46All right.
02:48Is it there?
02:49Yes.
02:50Mr. Dundee.
02:51There's a stable in back for your horse.
02:54Then come inside.
02:55Thank you, sir.
02:57Well, it's a very unusual house.
02:59I've seen hunting lodges in Europe, but never in this country.
03:02I built it for my wife.
03:04She wanted such a place.
03:06Now she's dead.
03:07I'm sorry.
03:09The half-breed's in the mountains.
03:14This place is closer than my ranch.
03:21Well, that was an excellent meal, thank you very much.
03:39I'm glad you've come, paladin.
03:41I told you're a good man.
03:43I'm gonna need a good man behind me.
03:45Mr. Dundee, who's this?
03:48Ordee must have thought it was his.
03:50It's mine.
03:51Ordee worked it.
03:52A man works the land, he doesn't give it up easy.
03:55He did what he had to do.
03:57He fought.
04:01Now I do what I have to do.
04:06Now I do what I have to do.
04:18You wanted to see me, Mr. Dundee?
04:21Yes.
04:22Come inside.
04:23I do not wish to go into your house, Mr. Dundee.
04:36All right.
04:38Jose here is the best tracker I've ever known, but he's a friend of Ordee's.
04:41I lay in the snow with a load of buckshot in my belly.
04:45But Ordee slept warm that night at Jose's place.
04:50You'll take me to here, Moselle Littor, eh?
04:54Si.
04:55I take you, Mr. Dundee.
04:57But it will be a long journey.
04:59A very long journey.
05:01She'll be going into the mountains with us.
05:18That's a very dangerous trip for a woman.
05:20But I want to go very much.
05:25Take her upstairs, Frank. She'll want to get some rest.
05:27John, I'm sorry.
05:29She'll want to get some rest.
05:31John, I can't take her back home.
05:35Take her upstairs.
05:48We're going to get finished here.
05:49We're getting an early start in the morning.
05:59We're getting an early start in the morning.
06:07We're getting an early start in the morning.
06:29We're getting an early start in the morning.
06:30Don't you?
06:31We're getting an early start in the morning.
06:32I've got a good start in the morning.
06:33Let's go for a good start.
06:34We're getting an early start in the morning.
06:35And we're getting to the morning.
06:37Let's go.
06:38I can't drive a fast dud or ya'll get a ticket.
06:40You'll get to the town!
06:41See our next Ä‘oy.
06:43And let's go.
06:45This is as far as the horses can go.
06:52Can a man live up there alone?
06:54An Indian can.
06:57We'll camp here tonight and go the rest of the way on foot.
07:00Willie, you'll take the horses back.
07:10Frank, you'll scout on ahead a couple of miles.
07:13And be careful.
07:15But, Mr. Dundee, perhaps I should go.
07:18Tannery is good, but he was not born here.
07:21I want you with me.
07:23But, Mr. Dundee, I...
07:25I want you with me.
07:28Be careful, Frank.
07:44Buenos dias, senor.
07:46Buenos dias.
07:49Well, the dawn's a beautiful time.
07:53A time when most babies are born.
07:56A time when most men die.
08:00Something troubling you?
08:02Si.
08:03Tanner did not come back tonight.
08:05Oh?
08:10Smoke?
08:12Si.
08:14Gracias, senor.
08:15Another?
08:16Is better than wine, better than woman.
08:19Havana, huh?
08:20That's right.
08:26Little tube of mighty power.
08:27Charmer of an idle hour, object of my warm desire.
08:33Uh...
08:34Could I?
08:36Hmm?
08:37Beg your pardon?
08:39The gun?
08:40Of course.
08:41Most men use a little oil on the working parts of their weapon.
08:50Not in this country, Mr. Dundee. Oil can't freeze.
08:54As long as you know.
08:56Living in this cold is a thing you have to learn.
08:59Usually you learn.
09:01Or you die.
09:03It's a fine weapon.
09:06It is handcrafted.
09:07Good morning.
09:10Senora.
09:18It's a pistol shot.
09:19Frank.
09:21Could be two.
09:22Three miles away.
09:23Come on.
09:24We'll find out.
09:32You too.
09:37Good morning.
10:07What happened, Frank?
10:15I took a fall. I broke it.
10:18Artie?
10:19He was here.
10:24You. Stay near where I can see you.
10:27I was just going to get the whiskey.
10:28Just stay near.
10:30You fixed that splint yourself?
10:32No. Artie did.
10:35Did he fix the fire?
10:36That too.
10:38Tanner, what kind of a man does that?
10:42He could have killed me, John.
10:44It would have been easy.
10:46If he had, it would have been easy for me, too.
10:48I could just go on out after him like before. He knew that.
10:51And now?
10:54Now it'll hurt. That's the only difference.
10:59I gotta leave you, Frank.
11:01You last till I get back.
11:03Make up your own mind on that, Tanner.
11:05You say the word, and I'll take you back.
11:07You say the word, and I'll take you back.
11:10Bluefinch.
11:11I've been calling all night.
11:15It sounds like a bluefinch.
11:18It does sound like a bluefinch.
11:20Bluefinch.
11:30Bluefinch.
11:31Please, Mr. Paladin.
11:32Let her go.
11:35Bluefinch.
11:40Bluefinch.
11:41Let her go.
11:44Bluefinch.
11:44Bluefinch.
11:49Stay with him. Keep warm. Keep dry.
11:57Our day is...
12:01My husband.
12:05He's my husband.
12:08He's my husband.
12:11He's my husband.
12:14He's my husband.
12:17My husband.
12:47Let's go.
12:51Dundee, that army of yours needs caring for.
12:54Let's go.
13:04Anything else I can do for you?
13:06No. Thanks, Paladin.
13:09Let's go.
13:15Anything else I can do for you?
13:18No. Thanks, Paladin.
13:45Was it just the land, Mrs. Ordy, or was it something else?
13:48No, it was just the land.
13:50And that Mr. Dundee's wife was killed by Comanche Indians.
13:54And your husband is half Comanche?
13:56My husband's a man, Mr. Paladin.
14:00When I was eight years old, I was kidnapped by the Utes.
14:03I lived with them till I was almost 13.
14:06Tom Ordy killed three men to take me away from them.
14:10My husband's a strong and temperate man, Mr. Paladin.
14:13The two men who were with Dundee that day insulted me.
14:17Tom killed them.
14:19It was the thing I expected him to do.
14:28Señor Paladin.
14:31Do you have another cigar? Por favor.
14:37Jose, you have very good taste.
14:40Oh, but this is luxury.
14:43You are a gentleman.
14:45I will remember you in my prayers.
14:47One for me, sir.
14:54Well, now you know.
14:56Now I know, and you should have told me in the beginning.
14:58Would it have made any difference?
15:00What did you intend to do, Dundee?
15:02Tie this woman to a stake and wait for her husband to come for her?
15:05A woman won't be heard. I give you my word.
15:07You paid me $1,000 to bring a murderer in.
15:11This woman was not part of the bargain.
15:13And if she'll go with me, I'm taking her back now.
15:17No, I'll go on with this, Mr. Paladin.
15:20This is something I must do.
15:22Ordy needs taking, Paladin.
15:23You won't be dirtying your hands.
15:25The half-breed is a murderer.
15:29The half-breed?
15:31That's what he is.
15:33How long has your wife been dead?
15:34Five years.
15:37Well, Ordy didn't kill her.
15:41He's half Comanche, but he didn't kill your wife.
15:45I don't hate Ordy. He killed one of my men.
15:48He killed a peace officer who was my friend.
15:51They died because they were standing with me.
15:54I mean to see him hang for that.
15:56That's the whole of it. Nothing else.
15:59You hired my gun to bring Ordy in.
16:03If this woman is harmed in any way,
16:07I'll use the gun on you.
16:09I promise you.
16:11He has gone into the high Montes de Sangre.
16:29I can take you no further.
16:31Does he know the mountains better than you do?
16:33No.
16:34Well, he went in and up.
16:36But he is a hunted man. He had no choice.
16:38Neither of you, Jose.
16:41Mr. Dundee, he is a dead man.
16:44Perdona, senora.
16:47On the far side of the high Montes de Sangre is freedom.
16:51But there's never been a man, not even an Indian,
16:54that crossed that in the winter.
16:56Is that enough for you, Dundee? Do you have to see it?
17:00Jose, I want you to go on after him.
17:04Alone, he'll let you find him.
17:06Give him this message. It's a true one.
17:08Tell him that our food is low.
17:11Tell him that unless we turn back within two or three days,
17:14we won't make it at all.
17:16Tell him his wife will die unless he comes for her.
17:21I'll kill you if I have to.
17:24Don't you ever doubt it, gunfighter.
17:27All right, Jose, give him my message.
17:28If I am not back within a day, I would advise you to kill him and find your own way back.
17:37I have enjoyed your cigars, Mr. Paladin.
17:40Buenasuerde.
17:42Gracias, senora.
17:48I'll take you back now, Mrs. Orte.
17:49You'll die and she with you.
17:52You'll never find your way back. The cold will kill you.
17:55Mrs. Orte.
17:56I told you, Mr. Paladin, this is something I have to do.
17:58I have to be where my husband can find me.
18:00You can't carry me back and I'm not going to walk.
18:03If he comes, I'll try and take him.
18:08I hope my husband doesn't have to kill you, Mr. Paladin.
18:26It is.
18:27That's all I can do. The bullet should come out.
18:29I thank you for trying.
18:38Mrs. Orte.
18:42I am grateful.
18:46Don't go outside.
18:50You know, I keep wondering about Orte.
18:54I wonder what kind of a man he is.
19:00What kind of a man is that that set Tanner's leg with that fire for him?
19:06He could have killed you easily.
19:09Took you in the elbow.
19:11I was a simple shot for him, silhouetted up there.
19:16I keep wondering if he wasn't trying for a shoulder shot on me.
19:20That bothers me.
19:22I think you better give me another drink.
19:25And I wonder about your wife.
19:27My wife is dead.
19:29I keep wondering what's driving you.
19:32I saw my wife after the Comanches were through with her.
19:35I can't forget that.
19:44Leave him, Mr. Paladin.
19:46Let him do this alone.
19:48Mrs. Orte.
19:49The only reason I'm here right now is because you wouldn't let me take you back.
19:57But you could go back without me alone.
20:00You've given me no choice.
20:03Your husband's a murderer. He's killed two men.
20:05When he comes, I'll have to stand with Dundee.
20:12I understand.
20:15I wish you could have known my husband, Mr. Paladin.
20:19And he you.
20:21He would have respected you.
20:35It's Jose.
20:36You found him?
20:37Si.
20:38You gave him the message?
20:39I gave him your message.
20:41He told me that if his wife was harmed, he would cut your heart out while you still lived.
20:59Sit outside by the fire.
21:13Jose.
21:14Over there.
21:24You ought to sit still.
21:26And if you move...
21:27I won't move, Mr. Dundee.
21:30Not until after my husband kills you.
21:36Where do you stand, Paladin?
21:38Where I choose, when the time comes.
21:41You could sit by the fire, too.
21:43When I know for sure what's pushing you, then I'll know for sure where I stand.
21:47I told you, he killed two men.
21:49He killed a peace officer, a good man.
21:52He was my friend.
21:53And Mrs. Orte?
21:55I want nothing of her.
21:56She was the only way.
21:59I need your help, Paladin.
22:02With it, I have a chance.
22:04Without it, I'll try by myself.
22:06It's your choice.
22:07It's your choice.
22:08It's your choice.
22:37It's your choice.
22:38I'll try myself.
22:39Arrgh!
23:09It is only as it should be.
23:19You are a very generous man, Mr. Paladin.
23:27Ah, you will be fine.
23:30The bullet passed through.
23:36I am glad he did not kill you, Mr. Paladin.
23:39Thank you, Mr. Paladin.
23:43But it is too bad you are so heavy.
23:46It is going to be a long walk.
23:49Well, I think perhaps you ought to have a cigar now.
23:53As a matter of fact, Jose, I think you should probably have them all.
23:57Gracias.
23:59For nada.
24:05It is a long way across, and no one has ever made it before.
24:09Do you think they can?
24:11I don't know, Jose.
24:13But there is always a first time.
24:14I think it is always the first time.
24:15I think it is always the first time.
24:16It is always the first time.
