When Peaceful Patton goes to work at the Martini ranch he is mistaken for the notorious outlaw the Hard Hombre. This enables him to force the ranchers to divide up the water rights. But he is in trouble when his mother arrives and exposes the hoax.

00:00:00.
00:00:37I don't know.
00:01:15I don't know.
00:01:30Hold on, boys. Hold on.
00:01:33Take it easy.
00:01:35Come on out and talk it over peaceful.
00:01:37I'll see you get a square deal.
00:01:40Them skunks don't want no square deal.
00:01:43They're trying to steal our range.
00:01:45Skunks, are we?
00:01:52Goodbye, peaceful.
00:01:54What do you call him?
00:01:55Peaceful Patton.
00:01:57His mother raised him not to fight.
00:02:22Fightin's bad enough on weekdays.
00:02:23On Sunday, I ought to wring your neck.
00:02:26Peaceful Patton.
00:02:30Woohoo!
00:02:33Woohoo!
00:02:59Hello, Mother.
00:03:01Hello, Mother.
00:03:03William.
00:03:08Gee, you look first raised.
00:03:10How you been?
00:03:12William, what brings you home?
00:03:14You wrote me you had a good job and that everything was going well.
00:03:18Yeah, I know.
00:03:22I wouldn't have taken that job if I'd known there was a cattle war in the making.
00:03:26When the boys started fighting, I had to quit.
00:03:29William, I'm proud of you for living up to my teaching.
00:03:34And now, you're just in time to take me to church.
00:03:38That is, unless you'd rather rest after your trip.
00:03:42Now, Mother, you know there's nothing I'd rather do than go to church with you.
00:03:54There you are, son.
00:03:56Hey.
00:03:57You all ready?
00:03:58All ready.
00:04:00Gee, you look sweet.
00:04:29Hey, Sheriff.
00:04:31Here comes the hard umbry that robbed me and broke my nose to boot.
00:04:37Why, that ain't the hard umbry.
00:04:39That's Peaceful Patton, the sturdiest young man in these parts.
00:04:43That's the hard umbry or I'm a cross-eyed liar.
00:04:46Morning, Miss Patton.
00:04:48Morning, Sheriff.
00:04:48Howdy, Peaceful.
00:04:49How are you, Sheriff?
00:04:51Say, by the way, you know of a good job for a reliable young man?
00:04:56I do know of a range foreman's job out in Socorro County.
00:05:01If you don't mind working for a woman.
00:05:03What sort of a woman?
00:05:05A Spanish widow, ma'am.
00:05:07Comes from a very fine family.
00:05:09William, it isn't every day that you can get a chance to work for a nice respectable widow.
00:05:15That's right, Mother.
00:05:16Her name's Sonora Martini.
00:05:19Head over the Sonora County and ask your way into the old Martini Rancho.
00:05:25Thanks, Sheriff.
00:05:32Still think he's the hard umbry?
00:05:34No.
00:05:35But it was the old lady that convinced me.
00:05:37That boy of her looks as much like the hard umbry as one rattlesnake looks like another.
00:05:44Now you get the job with the wither woman.
00:05:46Then I won't have to worry about you.
00:05:49I know you're safe and out of danger.
00:05:51Oh, I better start right away.
00:05:54You'll do no traveling on Sunday.
00:05:56Oh, of course not, Mother.
00:05:58I guess the old lady Martini's would be just as glad to see me on Monday.
00:06:25I don't want to see you on Monday.
00:06:25Come on, dear.
00:06:27Well, thank you, Lord.
00:06:28How are you?
00:06:30Can I come in?
00:06:32Oh, of course not.
00:06:32Oh, of course not.
00:06:34Well, I'm going to come in.
00:06:40Oh, of course not.
00:08:01Gee, that's the prettiest music I ever heard.
00:08:09What do you want?
00:08:10Good afternoon.
00:08:12I came after that ranch foreman's job.
00:08:16Oh.
00:08:18Wait in the other room.
00:08:20I'll see you in a moment.
00:08:21Yes, ma'am.
00:08:39Yes.
00:08:39My dear Maurice, I have never heard of something.
00:08:42What's the matter?
00:08:43A man walks into my house, makes himself perfectly at home, just because he hears that I need a ranch
00:08:50foreman.
00:08:51It is very enterprising.
00:08:53Enterprising.
00:08:55I'll give him a chance to prove it.
00:08:58I'll send him over to Barlow to get back the cattle they stole from me.
00:09:02Isabel, you wouldn't send that man alone over there.
00:09:05He will be killed.
00:09:06No.
00:09:07Oh, that sucks.
00:09:08Please.
00:09:11Señor, you wish to work here?
00:09:15I certainly would like to.
00:09:18Very well.
00:09:20You can have a job.
00:09:22And name your own salary.
00:09:25If you can carry out orders.
00:09:28I suppose that's all right with your mother.
00:09:31My mother?
00:09:33I am the Signora Martini.
00:09:37This is my neighbor, the Signora Romero.
00:09:42Oh.
00:09:43I'm William Penn Patton.
00:09:47Could I have my order, Signora?
00:09:49Go to the DT Bar Ranch.
00:09:52It's right to the north.
00:09:54And get back 30 head of my cattle from Joe Barlow.
00:10:04Of course, if you can't get back my cattle when they stray, you're not the man for the job.
00:10:10That's right.
00:10:11And if I do get them back, I am.
00:10:15Have you a gun?
00:10:17Oh, no.
00:10:18And if I did have, I wouldn't use it.
00:10:20I draw the line at fighting.
00:10:22I'll try and get them back peaceful.
00:10:26All right.
00:10:27Adios, Signora.
00:10:33You shouldn't have done that.
00:10:36It gets into trouble.
00:10:38Oh, he annoyed me.
00:10:52What are you doing on this range, stranger?
00:10:54I'm looking for 30 head of Martini's cattle.
00:10:57You better follow that road to the ranch house and talk to Mr. Joe Barlow.
00:11:00You don't tolerate any sightseeing on this range.
00:11:04All right, partner.
00:11:40Howdy, partner.
00:11:42Who are you?
00:11:43I'm Joe Barlow's boy.
00:11:45And I can lick my waitin' wildcats.
00:11:48Well, that's great.
00:11:50Is your dad home?
00:11:51Yeah.
00:11:52He can lick his waitin' grizzlies.
00:11:56Well, you want a ride?
00:11:57Can I owe the rain?
00:11:59Sure.
00:12:04There you go.
00:12:05Take that a hold of him.
00:12:16The Martini's man coming to see you, Joe.
00:12:18I sent him around a long way of the road.
00:12:22So, he wants the Cenaris 30 head, eh?
00:12:25Yeah.
00:12:41Here he comes.
00:12:50Hold it.
00:12:56Howdy.
00:13:00Is, uh, Mr. Joe Barlow here?
00:13:05I'm from the Senora of Martini's.
00:13:07I want 30 head of her cattle.
00:13:10They got mixed into a shipment I sent last week.
00:13:14Come on down, sonny.
00:13:15I don't want to get down.
00:13:20I'm obliged to ask you to pay for those cattle if you haven't got them, Mr. Barlow.
00:13:26Well, under the circumstances,
00:13:30I can't refuse.
00:13:42Satisfactory?
00:13:45Kind of generous, aren't you?
00:13:48Enjoy your ride, partner?
00:13:59The nerve of him.
00:14:02Why?
00:14:03Who is he?
00:14:04The hard hombre.
00:14:06No wonder he was scared of him with little Joey.
00:14:10Ah, he couldn't lick his waiting tadpole.
00:14:26He said he'd come back from the Barlow and make a report to you.
00:14:31Did he bring my cattle back with you?
00:14:33I don't see any cattle.
00:14:35No, senor.
00:14:36I doubt very much whether he went near Barlow.
00:14:39Show him in.
00:14:47Well?
00:14:48How about my thoughts?
00:14:50Why, Mr. Barlow says he ships your cattle to market, but, uh...
00:14:52That's enough.
00:14:53I told you, you must bring my cattle back here,
00:14:56if you wanted a job on this ranch.
00:14:58Good night.
00:15:01Good night, senora.
00:15:04Uh, by the way,
00:15:06I suppose I should keep the money.
00:15:08What money?
00:15:09Your money.
00:15:11As long as I couldn't get the cattle,
00:15:13I let him pay for them.
00:15:15That doesn't sound very much like Barlow.
00:15:18Oh, he has a reputation, huh?
00:15:20What did you do to him?
00:15:22Nothing.
00:15:23But how did you get his money?
00:15:25I took it.
00:15:30Won't you sit down?
00:15:38No, thanks.
00:15:40Don't you smoke?
00:15:41My mother doesn't approve.
00:15:43Oh, I see.
00:15:45Would your mother very much object if you had a little glass of wine?
00:15:49Oh, I'm sure she would.
00:15:52What an unusual man.
00:15:54Oh, come now.
00:15:55Tell me.
00:15:56How did you get this money away from Barlow?
00:15:59I told you.
00:16:01Oh, no.
00:16:03You held him up and took it away from him, didn't you?
00:16:06He seemed right glad when I gave him a chance to pay for him.
00:16:10Very well, senor.
00:16:11Good night.
00:16:15Don't forget.
00:16:16I take charge of your ranch in the morning, you know.
00:16:19I keep my agreement.
00:16:21Just a minute.
00:16:23Why didn't you walk out with this money when I wouldn't listen to you?
00:16:28Why should I?
00:16:57Say, boss, that there odd hombre is going to work for that Markney's outfit.
00:17:01Oh, don't I know it.
00:17:03Is it worth a month's pay if I get rid of him?
00:17:05Two months' pay.
00:17:08Ain't he bloodthirsty, though?
00:17:10Yeah, it's too bad he's got to go in his prime like that.
00:17:13I'll tell the car it was suicide.
00:17:16Shut up, you rannigans.
00:17:17Get out of the way and give me a chance to make my play.
00:17:19Hard hombre is riding this way now.
00:17:21Now.
00:17:21Well, hey.
00:17:23Come on, get, get.
00:17:25Move.
00:17:26We'll get out.
00:17:27We'll get one of the firefields.
00:17:51I got him.
00:18:17Come on, and I'll show you the remains.
00:18:35Well, I saw him fall off his horse with no knives.
00:18:39You better quit drinking, then.
00:18:41I could have told you he'd pull it through.
00:18:43He never finds out.
00:18:44Hey!
00:18:48One of you careless cowboys owes me a new hat.
00:19:23Look at him.
00:19:24Has Mr. Patton come in yet?
00:19:25Not yet. I'll tell him you're waiting for him.
00:19:29I'm not waiting for him!
00:19:53What's this, senora?
00:19:57Oh, hello, William.
00:20:03What is it, William?
00:20:07I'm getting worried about water for the cattle.
00:20:09You know, the rain is getting pretty dry.
00:20:14William, I rely on you to look after my cattle.
00:20:19You know, I trust you very much.
00:20:28Isn't there something else you'd like to tell me?
00:20:35Uh, no. Nothing I can think of.
00:20:38Very well. Good night.
00:20:44Good night, senora.
00:20:50William.
00:20:52Bill's all right.
00:20:54William, come here.
00:21:04After this, you may report to me in the morning.
00:21:07As long as you have nothing to say that is worth leaving to.
00:21:12Oh, gee, I'm, I'm awfully sorry.
00:21:15These evenings have meant so much to me.
00:21:22I never noticed that I ever meant anything to you at all.
00:21:31Ah!
00:21:31Come here.
00:21:56Any orders, senora?
00:21:58That will be all for this evening, William.
00:22:01Yes, sir.
00:22:09I say it was plenty for any evening.
00:22:12Well, I couldn't help it.
00:22:14No.
00:22:16And you're not the boss here.
00:22:18Ah, but you forgot the deal I made when he started to work here.
00:22:22I said I would pay him whatever he wants.
00:22:26Isabel, you need a chaperone.
00:22:30You need an old-fashioned duenna.
00:22:33A duenna?
00:22:34Yes.
00:22:34To keep William in his place?
00:22:35Certainly.
00:22:37If you only knew.
00:22:40Don't worry about William.
00:22:43He's so safe he isn't even interested.
00:22:47Oh, he seemed to be a very enterprising young man when you hired him.
00:22:53I thought so, too.
00:23:14Have you ever seen this country so dry before, Juan?
00:23:17Si, senor.
00:23:19About twenty years ago, all the water was gone from the land.
00:23:24At first the cattle bellowed day and night for water.
00:23:30Wherever I went they washed me asking for water with their eyes.
00:23:35So one day we shot and shot till I had no living cow or horse.
00:23:44Well, that's not going to happen to the senora's cattle.
00:23:47But what can we do, senor?
00:23:51I got an idea.
00:23:52Come on back to the house, senora.
00:24:01I got an idea.
00:24:03Come on, don't you?
00:24:06Come on.
00:24:07Come on.
00:24:11Come on, don't you?
00:24:13Come on, don't you?
00:24:21Come on, don't you?
00:24:22No, I mean the hard hombre, the outlaw, the renegade that have been thrust in him.
00:24:30I don't understand.
00:24:31Listen, listen for the description.
00:24:35Five foot ten, blue eyes, good-looking, left-handed, and prison personality.
00:24:44That's not my prison.
00:24:46It's Williams. It's left-handed.
00:24:50I don't know.
00:24:50It is left-handed. You are not safe with him for one moment.
00:24:56One said for five murders, including that of his sweetheart, Maria Guadalupe.
00:25:03But that can't be Williams.
00:25:05But it cannot be anyone else.
00:25:07Now remember how funny he has acted when he come here for work with you the first time.
00:25:13Hey, he didn't go to town any payday and get drunk like any honest cow-punchers.
00:25:19Oh, no. He's afraid he would be recognized.
00:25:25And remember how he get the money from Guadalupe?
00:25:28Now, do you think a man like Guadalupe will give the money a man like that if it was not
00:25:32the hard hombre?
00:25:34Then maybe something is much to say.
00:25:37Dear, he isn't left-handed.
00:25:39I bet you he's left-handed.
00:25:42When I saw that, like a flash he came to me.
00:25:45Why come to live here in your house to work for him?
00:25:49In fact, I gave me a nice, witty, widow, wealthy woman, and I acted gently with her.
00:25:57And one night, one night, when she's all alone, I get into her room, and I strangled her.
00:26:08And scouts clean.
00:26:15Pardon, senor, I didn't know you had company.
00:26:20What's the matter?
00:26:23Nothing.
00:26:24Nothing.
00:26:27Nothing.
00:26:36Oh, it's a matter of ranch business, and I've got to talk over with you.
00:26:41Alone.
00:26:42Oh, no, William, anything that you would have to say about the ranch, dear Maria, she can hear it.
00:26:47Oh, no, I must be going. I must be going.
00:26:49I must be...
00:26:50No, no, you stay here, dear Maria.
00:26:53No, you stay here.
00:26:54No, I must be going, dear. I'm sure.
00:26:56Oh, it's much better. It's too late for you to go to your ranch.
00:26:59You stay here with me, huh?
00:27:00No, no, darling, I will not...
00:27:02Stay here with me.
00:27:03I must be going.
00:27:04Wait.
00:27:05As soon as I'm finished with the senora, I'll take you home.
00:27:08Oh, no, senora.
00:27:10Oh, dear Maria.
00:27:11Just a minute.
00:27:13What I've got to talk over with you is very important.
00:27:16And we've got to settle it right away.
00:27:18It's all right, William.
00:27:20You wait here just a minute.
00:27:22Please.
00:27:34Will you please open that door?
00:27:36I don't want anybody to know what I'm going to do.
00:27:38Oh.
00:27:40Shall we sit down?
00:27:41No.
00:27:42Please.
00:27:43Just a minute.
00:27:44Who's that?
00:27:45Oh, come back in.
00:27:46Dear Maria.
00:27:47She said I should give you a message right away.
00:27:50What is it?
00:27:51She said she's going to ranch the town, and she will send the sheriff's bag.
00:27:56That's a funny message.
00:27:58Yes.
00:27:58Very funny.
00:27:59Now look, we're all alone.
00:28:00Oh, no, please.
00:28:01I want to get your permission to leave right away.
00:28:03What?
00:28:04Your permission to go away.
00:28:06Oh.
00:28:06You see.
00:28:07Yes.
00:28:08Yes, of course.
00:28:08You would.
00:28:09You see, your kennel is going to die a thirst unless I can find a new range for them.
00:28:12Now, I know a valley down on the Green River.
00:28:14And you want to go right away, don't you?
00:28:16I want to be the first one in there so I can tie the range right up for your stock.
00:28:20That's why I'm in a hurry.
00:28:21Yes.
00:28:22That's a very good reason.
00:28:23I'll help you get started, eh?
00:28:31Now, don't you boys worry about the cattle.
00:28:34Your boy will lift this afternoon to get range rights where there's water.
00:28:38I'll bet he's halfway to Green River already.
00:28:45Si, senora.
00:28:47If the cats stop now, they may live to reach the Green River.
00:28:52I'll ride ahead and get range right for them.
00:28:55I'm starting now.
00:28:56Do I go too?
00:28:57No?
00:28:58Oh, no, Juan.
00:28:59You are the only man I can trust.
00:29:01Take charge.
00:29:03And now that the hot hombre is gone, you and the boys bring on the cattle tomorrow.
00:29:07Si, senora.
00:29:08Si, senora.
00:29:08Promise.
00:29:33Good morning, men.
00:29:35Any place I can get any breakfast around here?
00:29:37There's a settler shack right over there.
00:29:40What's the matter with you?
00:29:41Haven't you got any eyes in your head?
00:29:45Thank you, stranger.
00:29:50Howdy, brother Barlow.
00:29:52Howdy.
00:30:00You know that fella?
00:30:01Yeah.
00:30:02That Maverick you was trying to get on the prod is the hard hombre.
00:30:06Is that really the hard hombre?
00:30:07Is that the hard hombre?
00:30:08Yeah, that's him all right.
00:30:10Absolutely deadly to men and women alike.
00:30:14Gosh.
00:30:16They say that he's done a killing for every year of his life.
00:30:21He started in with his own daddy.
00:30:38Morning.
00:30:39How's handsome me getting a bite of breakfast?
00:30:41I'm too busy to get any breakfast for a lazy cow puncher.
00:30:44I'll pay.
00:30:45I'll pay.
00:30:47Say.
00:30:48Who do I see about buying the range rights up in this?
00:30:51Ain't no more range rights for sale around here.
00:30:54Them cattlemen have bought up the whole valley already.
00:31:02Thanks.
00:31:20They say he's a right deceiving fellow.
00:31:23He's the meekest and mildest man that ever lived.
00:31:26He gets into action.
00:31:28Here he comes down.
00:31:36I'm looking for some range rights.
00:31:38Seems like I'll have to make a deal with some of you gentlemen.
00:31:41You can have what I bought up.
00:31:43You can count me in.
00:31:44Me too.
00:31:45Don't forget, I'll offer your money first.
00:31:48I'm sure surprised it.
00:31:50See you fellas so obliging.
00:31:52You can have half of mine.
00:31:55No.
00:31:56No, that wouldn't seem quite fair to you.
00:32:00Did you hear that?
00:32:03It don't seem fair to you.
00:32:07That's what he said just before he killed Bill Blake.
00:32:13He gets at the dodge if he offers to toss a coin.
00:32:17He'll go for a coin and come up with a gun.
00:32:20That's how I got those two men down in Red Rocks.
00:32:22Don't listen to him, partner.
00:32:24You take my range and don't forget who give it to you.
00:32:28I reckon there's only one way to decide who I'll do business with.
00:32:32I'll flip a coin.
00:32:35Hey, what's eating you fellas?
00:32:43Heads I take barlows, tails I take the tall guys.
00:32:47I'll spin the tall guy on the floor to play.
00:32:48I'd like to keep going.
00:32:49All right.
00:33:05I'll spin the tall guy.
00:33:05I'll spin the tall guy.
00:33:05Then you roll me a bit off.
00:33:13I'll do the light.
00:33:14Go ahead.
00:33:16I'll do the light.
00:33:17Yeah, and what would you do with your cattle if he had taken your range?
00:33:23I'd rather lose my cattle than lose my life, wouldn't I?
00:33:26He's bound to kill somebody unless he gets what he wants.
00:33:30Reckon you're right. He wouldn't be the hard hombre if he didn't kill someone.
00:33:46Hey, you. Listen to me. I'll look this range over. Decide on what I want. We'll talk business after I
00:33:55come back.
00:33:56Yes, sir. All right, partner. Suit yourself.
00:34:04Wasn't that close?
00:34:22He'll be back pretty soon. We'd better agree on some way to handle him.
00:34:26I'd get a million dollars if I had his nerve. If you had his nerve, you wouldn't need a million
00:34:31dollars.
00:34:31No, you can always find some poor suckers like this to Rob.
00:34:34What say we shoot it out with him?
00:34:36You can if you want to, but me? I've got a family.
00:34:40Yeah, if you want him shot, why don't you do it yourself, Barlow?
00:34:57Fine day, gentlemen, eh?
00:34:59If you're looking for range, you're out of luck. It's all took.
00:35:05You mean I'm too late to save my cattle?
00:35:08That's the size of it. You might as well go home, Sonora.
00:35:12It ain't very safe up here anyway, with a hard umber around.
00:35:18Is he here?
00:35:19There he comes now.
00:35:25Atta, senora!
00:35:26There he comes now.
00:36:28Don't let on who I am.
00:36:30But they already know you are the hard hombre.
00:36:36Go pick up the lady's horse.
00:36:39Ain't you got no eyes in your head?
00:36:44Yes, sir.
00:37:04Here comes the hard hombre now.
00:37:06You've got a lady with it.
00:37:08Yes.
00:37:16Good evening, sir.
00:37:18I hope you're feeling well.
00:37:19What can I do for you?
00:37:20Well, won't you come in and sit down to suffer, sir?
00:37:23I'm working for this lady.
00:37:25I want accommodations for her.
00:37:27Why, of course, certainly.
00:37:29Come right in, Mom.
00:37:31The couple's just ready.
00:37:33Can I do anything else for you?
00:37:35Yeah.
00:37:37Seeing you're so hospitable,
00:37:39I reckon you can cook supper for all of us.
00:37:40Why, we'd be delighted, certainly, sir.
00:37:43Come right in.
00:37:55I don't understand just what you mean.
00:37:59Well, I'll tell you how it was.
00:38:01Well, me and my girl went for a ride one day.
00:38:04Started racing on a flat.
00:38:07The horse stumbled, threw her all over the prairie.
00:38:11When I got to her, she had a broken leg.
00:38:13What'd you do?
00:38:14The only thing I could do,
00:38:16pulled out my gun and shot her.
00:38:18What, the horse?
00:38:19No, the girl.
00:38:21Poor Kate.
00:38:22That was murder.
00:38:25The only thing you can do with a critter with a broken leg.
00:38:30That's why I was so worried about you
00:38:31when your horse bowled with you this afternoon.
00:38:35Even if he's calling, he should have been a public hangman.
00:38:38Yeah.
00:38:40Was it you wondering how I happened to get called to heart,
00:38:43Umry?
00:38:44Who, me?
00:38:46I ain't curious about your affairs.
00:38:49You know, that's another funny story.
00:38:52Happened back in San Antonio.
00:38:55My father started to give me a weapon once, and, uh...
00:38:58What, what for?
00:39:00For killing a man, of course.
00:39:03Well, I knocked the old man down
00:39:05and shot him twice before he hit the ground.
00:39:08My mother said it took off hard Umry
00:39:11to do a thing like that.
00:39:14And I once thought I was tough.
00:39:20Now, this is your side.
00:39:23And this is his.
00:39:33All right, Signora.
00:39:57Well, William, what a surprise you turned out to be.
00:40:03Well, William, what a surprise you turned out to be.
00:40:05Is that stuff I was telling us, Supper?
00:40:07Yes, of course I believe you.
00:40:09I wouldn't call you a liar.
00:40:12And to think that I brought you around somewhat
00:40:14and never knew who you were.
00:40:20Is, uh, is that the gun that you did so many killings with?
00:40:26Well, that's the only gun I ever own.
00:40:29It doesn't look like it's been used very much.
00:40:32Uh, let me see him.
00:40:33Sure.
00:40:35Now, you get out of here!
00:40:37You disgusting mess-up!
00:40:39You get out of our bullet trigger!
00:40:42Go ahead, pull it.
00:40:46Now, let me show you.
00:40:47You see, with this kind of a gun,
00:40:50you have to pull this hammer back first.
00:40:52Then you pull the trigger.
00:40:54But not now.
00:40:59You know, I had something I was going to tell you, Signora.
00:41:02But I've changed my mind.
00:41:05Good night.
00:41:09Pleasant dreams.
00:41:10Good morning, Miss Patton.
00:41:26Here's your mail.
00:41:27Good morning, son.
00:41:29Come along back after school and I'll give you a donut.
00:41:32Thanks.
00:41:43Good morning, Miss Patton.
00:41:44Oh, morning, Sheriff.
00:41:46Going on a trip?
00:41:47No, going up to Green River Valley.
00:41:49All the cattlemen up there are fighting for water.
00:41:51There's the making of the biggest range war this country ever saw.
00:41:58Green River Valley.
00:42:12We've been here a half an hour now.
00:42:14I know we have.
00:42:16Hard, don't worry.
00:42:17What did he want?
00:42:18I don't know.
00:42:20Is that where you want to see everybody pronto?
00:42:32Listen, you all.
00:42:33We're going to settle that rain situation this afternoon
00:42:36over at the schoolhouse.
00:42:37I'm ordering every one of you men
00:42:39that have any range rights in that valley
00:42:41to attend
00:42:43and leave your gun outside.
00:42:48Any objections?
00:43:03That's all for now.
00:43:06Say,
00:43:07when did you fellows start taking orders
00:43:09from that stuff, Sheriff?
00:43:10That's loud.
00:43:12That's the hard umbrae.
00:43:14Hard umbrae, nothing.
00:43:16That's peaceful Patton.
00:43:17You're wrong.
00:43:18Peaceful Patton's just an alias
00:43:20he uses when he's hiding out.
00:43:22If you men will give me enough range
00:43:24for my few cattle,
00:43:25I'll run him out of this valley for you.
00:43:31It's a deal.
00:43:32Right.
00:43:44So you're the hard umbrae, eh?
00:43:51You're the hard umbrae.
00:43:53You're a liar.
00:43:55And what are you going to do about it?
00:43:59Well, I guess I'll have to kill you.
00:44:02You better think it over, peaceful Patton.
00:44:05I'll give you to noon to get out of here.
00:44:07If you don't dust out of here by then,
00:44:09I'll be looking for you.
00:44:10And I'll shoot on Spike.
00:44:19He got away with it.
00:44:20That ain't the hard umbrae.
00:44:22We've been buffaloed.
00:44:23Well, I ain't gonna wait till this afternoon
00:44:25and let Abe get all the satisfaction.
00:44:28I'll get a rope.
00:44:29Say, listen to fellas,
00:44:30I'll tell you what we'll do.
00:44:31Go.
00:44:58That's the man.
00:45:23I heard you was around this country.
00:45:25I ought to kill you, and I would if you was any use to me dead.
00:45:30Sir, what are you driving at?
00:45:32You know what I'm driving at.
00:45:34You may be a hard umbrio all right, but you're going to keep your promise and marry my little
00:45:39sister.
00:45:42And you better think twice before you say no.
00:45:51Oh, I wasn't going to turn down the opportunity, partner.
00:45:54I was just going to suggest that we adjourn to some place and talk a private.
00:45:59That suits me.
00:46:10Did you see that?
00:46:18This is far enough.
00:46:21Now, now, wait a minute.
00:46:23It's against my principles to fight.
00:46:25You should have remembered your principles when you met my sister.
00:46:31Now, now, wait a minute.
00:46:32I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm.
00:46:43I'm going to lock you in a seat.
00:46:44Let's go.
00:46:47He he's lost.
00:46:53OK.
00:47:30He is the hard hombre.
00:47:37Well, that fellow in his buggy.
00:47:43Get in and get out of this valley.
00:47:46If you ever show up around here again, I won't let you off so easy.
00:47:50You big brute!
00:47:57Come in the house, and be quick about it.
00:48:07Come on, boys, come on.
00:48:09Good thing this number stopped growing, I'm telling you.
00:48:13Got him up first.
00:48:14Yeah.
00:48:33That was a tough job.
00:48:35How did you do it?
00:48:39You're always trying to find out how I do things.
00:48:56Time to go out and shoot it out with that guy.
00:49:03I don't want you to be cute.
00:49:10Thanks.
00:49:11You're the first person I've met so far that didn't want to see the hard hombre he killed.
00:49:15I'll remember that after the shooting.
00:49:45Come on, baby.
00:49:46Bill.
00:50:19I'll go over to the schoolhouse now, men.
00:50:24Come on, senor.
00:50:46Come on, men.
00:51:02Ah, you carried two of them, huh?
00:51:09Ah, I missed out.
00:51:17The first and only meeting of the Green River Cattle Association will now come to order.
00:51:24I'm telling you, I'm not...
00:51:26Do you hear me, Barlow?
00:51:28All right, Mr. Chairman.
00:51:31Now, here's the valley, and here's all the worthwhile sections that can be cut up into.
00:51:42There being no objections from the map committee, the next thing will be to divide it up amongst those interested.
00:51:49But who is which?
00:51:53Regarding that, I'm going to be guided by the golden rule.
00:51:57Ladies first.
00:51:59Senor Martinis, come up and take your pick.
00:52:08But I don't know which to pick.
00:52:12Me being the chairman, I can't advise you.
00:52:15But, I did notice the section that had the best bottom line.
00:52:27There's an agreement.
00:52:30Whereby, you guarantee, keep your stock on your own range.
00:52:35Sign here.
00:52:40Right there, please.
00:52:42Right there, please.
00:53:01You both seen anything of William Penn Patton?
00:53:04Never heard of him.
00:53:05He might be down at the schoolhouse.
00:53:07The hard-hungry's holding a meeting there.
00:53:19Right here, partner.
00:53:30We was the first ones here.
00:53:32We'd oughta got more.
00:53:34But, Milo, it ain't my fault if you was unlucky on the drawing.
00:53:38What?
00:53:44Are you looking for trouble with me?
00:53:50William Penn Patton, you come right home with me.
00:53:55Peaceful Patton.
00:54:10You.
00:54:14I've done.
00:54:18What?
00:54:30I'll show you, next time.
00:54:32Do you wanna know what the best?
00:54:32We'll get to the thing now.
00:54:34If you want to know what the best?
00:54:35I'll show you.
00:55:07Come on, we'll pick up the track.
00:55:20There ain't no sign of them around here, Barlow.
00:55:22Ah, he's plum disappeared.
00:55:24Let's go.
00:55:47Who are you running from?
00:55:49Me, running?
00:55:50Yes, you.
00:55:52Oh, it couldn't have been me.
00:55:53What was them fellas chasing you for then?
00:55:56Oh, boy.
00:55:57Yeah, we made a bet.
00:55:59I bet they couldn't find me.
00:56:03Get on your horse.
00:56:05Where are you taking me?
00:56:06I've taken you back to collect your bet.
00:56:14What you looking at?
00:56:16Do you always do things left-handed?
00:56:19Yeah, and I'm sensitive about it.
00:56:20So am I.
00:56:22I'm left-handed, too.
00:56:24Oh, you are, are you?
00:56:25I came up here looking for a left-handed waddy that resembles me.
00:56:33Nah.
00:56:35I don't think there's any resemblance.
00:56:37You're a lot better looking than I am.
00:56:41Never mind that.
00:56:42Get going.
00:56:46You think you'll have use to that?
00:56:48Well, I'm hoping they bring him back here.
00:56:58So you're the widow Martini.
00:57:01I should have known better than to let my boy go to work for a woman as pretty as you.
00:57:06Now see what's happened.
00:57:07Making him pretend that he's a bad man.
00:57:09Getting him into trouble for the first time in his life.
00:57:13He was getting away with it until you tried to take care of him.
00:57:16Now if anything happens, you'll be to blame.
00:57:19Why, sir?
00:57:20They won't do anything to him now.
00:57:22They know he's not the hard hombre, will they?
00:57:24Hmm.
00:57:25They'll do everything they were afraid to do when they thought he was the hard hombre.
00:57:30Well, if he gets out of this safely, I'll never interfere in his affairs again.
00:57:36Never.
00:57:42They're coming back.
00:57:49He must have gotten away.
00:57:51Maybe.
00:57:52Maybe they shot him.
00:57:59Where's my boy?
00:58:00I don't know, ma'am.
00:58:02Last we've seen, he was going like a baddie.
00:58:05Ain't that him coming over there now?
00:58:19I've seen you fellas out trying to round up this Waddy, so I brought him in.
00:58:23What's he done?
00:58:24Beat us all out of our rights on this rain.
00:58:27That's all.
00:58:31Who are you?
00:58:33Did you ever hear of the Hard Umbry?
00:58:37I suppose you came up here to get your hands on the man that's been trading on your reputation.
00:58:43Yeah.
00:58:44Have I got him?
00:58:47You've got him.
00:58:48And I'll take care of him, too.
00:58:50Now we're going to see him break loose.
00:58:53Get down.
00:58:54Yeah, but I was only just trying to have a little fun with the boys.
00:58:57Get down.
00:59:05No way.
00:59:06I was only having a little joke.
00:59:08Don't you point that gun at my boy.
00:59:10It might go off.
00:59:10I'll let go.
00:59:13Keep your hands off my mother.
00:59:14You put the wire on there.
00:59:22Yeah.
00:59:36Yeah.
00:59:37Get out of here.
00:59:48Two.
00:59:53That's three, Milt.
00:59:55Yes, and three more to come for I'll ever leave this place.
01:00:00Four.
01:00:01Two more are coming.
01:00:11No.
01:00:16Oh, my poor boy.
01:00:18My poor boy.
01:00:19Get up.
01:00:57Good boy, William.
01:00:59Good boy.
01:01:00Give it to him.
01:01:01Give it to him, William.
01:01:11Here they go, William.
01:01:15Not today.
01:01:17Bueno.
01:01:19Now you get up and apologize to my mother.
01:01:26I wonder what became of them two shots you had left.
01:01:31Come on out, all you men, and come with your hands in the air.
01:01:43Look what he's done for hard hombre.
01:01:55What's going on here?
01:01:56Can't you see?
01:01:57We're being persecuted by Peaceful Patton.
01:02:03I ain't trying to persecute nobody.
01:02:06I'm just trying to enforce a range agreement.
01:02:08What agreement?
01:02:10I have him here.
01:02:13Say, that ain't legal.
01:02:15He forced us to sign it.
01:02:18I don't believe that, Barlow.
01:02:20Everybody knows that Peaceful Patton wouldn't threaten any man.
01:02:29I reckon you've saved your cattle, Signora.
01:02:32Too late for you to start back to town, Mother.
01:02:34You better come with us.
01:02:36I'll get you fixed up for the night.
01:02:48The Hard Umbry, who'd did this to him?
01:02:51My Peaceful Patton.
01:02:54He wouldn't threaten any man.
01:02:59Sue, The Hard Umbry's your boy.
01:03:01No.
01:03:03My boy isn't the Hard Umbry.
01:03:05Who is he?
01:03:06My boy, the man that licked the hard hombre.
01:03:40Why, William!
01:03:43Or...
01:03:44Theo?
01:03:47That's better.
01:04:05That's better.
