Union Army deserter, Lt. Hewitt, trains a ragtag band of all-female homesteaders to defend themselves against a Comanche tribe on the warpath.
Transcript
00:00:28The
00:02:00We search for those who have done this.
00:02:02To the south, we trade with our brothers.
00:02:05In peace, we return to our farms and women at Sand Creek.
00:02:10Next time, obey the treaty.
00:02:33That old shippington's sure going to be disappointed not to have somebody to shoot at.
00:02:37Yeah.
00:02:47Come in.
00:02:50Lieutenant Hewitt is here, sir.
00:02:51Oh, send him right in.
00:02:52Yes, sir.
00:02:53Lieutenant.
00:02:55Welcome back, Hewitt.
00:02:56Thank you, Captain.
00:02:58Now, what'd you find?
00:02:59Sir, we ran across the band of Cheyennes off the reservation.
00:03:02Yes?
00:03:02But not the renegades we're looking for.
00:03:05How do you know?
00:03:06They came from the south.
00:03:07They were unarmed.
00:03:08Not a rifle in the whole outfit.
00:03:10You mean you saw no rifles, but they were illegally off the reservation.
00:03:13They were returning to Sand Creek.
00:03:15Said they'd been on a trading mission.
00:03:16They said.
00:03:17Have the bugler sound assembly.
00:03:19Yes, sir.
00:03:21What are you going to do?
00:03:22Teach them a lesson they won't forget.
00:03:24Double the ammunition ration.
00:03:25We're marching on Sand Creek.
00:03:26Yes, sir.
00:03:28You can't do that.
00:03:30Don't forget yourself, Lieutenant.
00:03:32Dismissed.
00:03:33You know what'll happen if you attack a friendly tribe?
00:03:36My job here is to preserve treaties and make these beggars keep the peace.
00:03:39I said you're dismissed.
00:03:41Look, Colonel.
00:03:42Every other tribe, the Arapaholes, the Paiutes, the Comanches,
00:03:45will use this as an excuse to join with the Cheyennes on the warp.
00:03:48Not with me here to stop them.
00:03:51And south of here?
00:03:53South.
00:03:54Texas, sir.
00:03:56You know the South Strip just left clean of manpower for the Confederate Army.
00:03:59Lieutenant, do I have to tell you there's a civil war?
00:04:01We're fighting the South.
00:04:02If putting Indians on the warpath helps to win that fight, I've no objection.
00:04:06We're not fighting a war against women and children.
00:04:08There's not ten men left every thousand square miles in Texas.
00:04:12Your being from Texas wouldn't have any bearing on your attitude, would it, Lieutenant?
00:04:16A man fights for what he thinks is right, no matter where he's from.
00:04:20You're being insubordinate, Lieutenant.
00:04:22And you're wearing the wrong color uniform.
00:04:24One of us is sure dressed wrong, Colonel.
00:04:28Lieutenant Hewitt, you're under arrest and confined to quarters until I return.
00:04:38You certainly fixed yourself up good, didn't you?
00:04:41Did you hear what he said?
00:04:42I got ears.
00:04:45Well, remember it.
00:04:46I'm sorry.
00:04:50I'm sorry.
00:04:51I'm sorry.
00:04:57You're not sorry.
00:04:58I'm sorry.
00:04:58I'm sorry.
00:04:58I'm sorry.
00:04:59I'm sorry.
00:05:00I'm sorry.
00:05:01I'm sorry.
00:05:02I'm sorry.
00:05:03Let's go.
00:05:04I'm sorry.
00:05:06Weber?
00:05:07Yes, sir?
00:05:09I want you to see that this gets to General Farwell.
00:05:11What do you mean?
00:05:12What are you gonna do?
00:05:13Somebody's got to warn those settlers.
00:05:14Wait a minute lieutenant. You know what's gonna happen if you leave this fort. I'll worry about that when the
00:05:19time comes
00:05:20But you're just being plain crazy
00:05:54You
00:06:17Oh
00:06:46My daughter
00:07:22Oh
00:07:48Oh
00:08:35Hey, mister, ain't you misread your compass needle south for north? This is the Texas border. I know where I
00:08:42am. You had any Indian trouble around here?
00:08:44This far south?
00:08:47If you don't mind, I'd like to get a canteen of water and a little food. Well, what for?
00:08:52Do you ask every customer the same question? Only if we figure it's a northern soldier trying to sneak into
00:08:57Texas as a spy
00:09:00I am from Texas
00:09:01In that uniform?
00:09:04Better hold him
00:09:16There, you'll see
00:09:18There, you'll see
00:09:57There is no problem
00:09:59You have no problem
00:10:02You 영
00:10:12Don't go to sleep, because they'll be back. Here.
00:10:15Where are you going, mister?
00:10:19You still aiming to hold me?
00:10:21Yeah.
00:10:22Till you get them things you were after.
00:10:25Thanks.
00:10:27It's all clear, Sarah.
00:10:29Better get the doctor for Harry.
00:10:32Another thing, I'd better get you something to cover up that uniform.
00:10:35You get where you're going.
00:10:38Try this.
00:10:40I have got a lot of people to talk to.
00:10:42It should be nice to get close enough to talk to them before they start shooting.
00:10:45Folks is sensitive to that color around here.
00:10:50Say, just exactly what are you?
00:10:53I guess you could say I'm a deserter.
00:10:56From which side?
00:10:59Both, I suppose.
00:11:03I'll get you that food and water.
00:11:32Hey, Stella!
00:11:34Stella!
00:11:35We've got company.
00:11:39If you'll stay for dinner, will you open the peaches?
00:11:42Maybe.
00:11:49If you'll stay for dinner, we've got peaches.
00:11:51Go back to the house.
00:11:52What?
00:11:53Go on, mind me.
00:11:56Hi, Stella.
00:11:57Thought you'd gone for good.
00:11:59So did I.
00:12:01But you couldn't stay away.
00:12:03No, Stella, I couldn't.
00:12:04In fact, I deserted to get here.
00:12:06Well, you're a little late.
00:12:07I'm married.
00:12:08Did you think you were the only man in the world?
00:12:11Now, wait a minute.
00:12:12Wait?
00:12:13Was I supposed to wait forever, Mr. Hewitt?
00:12:15Well, let me tell you.
00:12:16Just one week after you left, I got married.
00:12:19To a good man, too.
00:12:21Ed Latham.
00:12:22That's his kid brother, Bax.
00:12:24Stella, you're making a mistake.
00:12:26Two weeks ago, there was a massacre of Cheyennes at Sand Creek.
00:12:29My regiment did it.
00:12:31Now the Indians are on their way.
00:12:33Indians.
00:12:34You've made that up fast.
00:12:37Get off my land.
00:12:40Stella, wait.
00:12:42Your best chance is at the mission.
00:12:44Damn Yankee.
00:12:47Get her there, Bax.
00:12:49Damn Yankee.
00:13:06Hello, Miss Hannah.
00:13:10Don't you recognize me, Miss Hannah?
00:13:11I'm Frank Hewitt.
00:13:12I don't recognize no traitors.
00:13:15Look, the Comanches are on their way here.
00:13:18I came to you because I figure you're the strongest woman of the moor.
00:13:21If you think you can scare southern women off their land so you can take over and claim it for
00:13:25your own, you're stupid.
00:13:27I don't want anything except to help.
00:13:29You'd better listen to me, Miss Hannah.
00:13:30Listen.
00:13:32Young man, I've already listened to three husbands in my time,
00:13:35and maybe I'll listen to three more before I'm done.
00:13:37Now you listen.
00:13:39Our menfolk are all fighting your kind,
00:13:41and we don't want what you call your help and I call your lies.
00:13:45You'd better get going before you need some patches on them blue britches.
00:13:49and we don't want what you call several other ones.
00:14:19Well, the things you NEAR
00:14:26Oh, my God.
00:15:10Don't you dare, you dirty renegade!
00:15:14Sorry, ma'am.
00:15:21No more trouble out of you now.
00:15:23Who are you?
00:15:24What's your name?
00:15:26Ann Martin.
00:15:27You Jeff Martin's girl?
00:15:30Where's your pa?
00:15:31He's dead.
00:15:32At Shiloh.
00:15:33And you'd be dead, too, if you taught me how to shoot good.
00:15:35Look, I'm not here to do you any harm.
00:15:37The Indians are on the warpath.
00:15:38I want you to get your things and get to the mission as fast as you can.
00:15:41Do you understand?
00:15:45I'm sorry about you, pa.
00:15:52Now you start running.
00:15:55Oh, put that down, Ann.
00:15:56Your father and I were friends.
00:15:57Now, get!
00:16:00All right.
00:16:01If you're pig-headed enough to stay here and get yourself slaughtered, I guess there's nothing I can do about
00:16:05it.
00:16:08Keep moving, Yankee.
00:16:13I was a horse's hind sight for ever coming here in the first place.
00:16:17You get!
00:16:18You get!
00:16:21You get!
00:16:57Mr. Turncolt, I guess I didn't talk very clear the last time.
00:17:01Nor did I.
00:17:02Well, maybe this will help.
00:17:08Dora Hartley.
00:17:10The way I found her.
00:17:11The way the Comanches left her.
00:17:13You've got an ugly way of telling things, Mr. Hewitt.
00:17:16You wouldn't listen to me.
00:17:18It had to be shown.
00:17:21There are things to be done.
00:17:22Let's get at it.
00:17:41Most merciful Father, who has been pleased to take unto thyself the soul of this thy servant, Dora Hartley, grant
00:17:51unto us who are still in our pilgrimage, who walk as yet by faith, who have served thee with constancy
00:18:01of earth, that we may join thy blessed saints hereafter in glory everlasting.
00:18:07Now all my money's been gone.
00:18:12Now all my money's been gone.
00:18:18Now all my money's been gone.
00:18:32Good afternoon.
00:18:57Good afternoon.
00:18:57How do you do?
00:18:58Now all my money's gone broke down.
00:18:58Buy them on rocky flats and thought I'd better bring them here.
00:19:01You did right.
00:19:02Now, put a wheel on this vehicle, young man, and we too shall be on our way.
00:19:07I'm afraid that won't be possible.
00:19:09We're expecting Indians.
00:19:11Indians?
00:19:12Men Indians?
00:19:14Men Indians?
00:19:14You might as well light.
00:19:17Oh!
00:19:18Oh!
00:19:18Indians!
00:19:19Where's my rifle?
00:19:20Where's my rifle?
00:19:21Get out!
00:19:22Get out!
00:19:25Get out!
00:19:26Get out over there!
00:19:41You should have seen yourself!
00:19:45You too, you lolly!
00:19:50Stand easy, son.
00:19:52What's the matter?
00:19:54Can you take a joke?
00:19:55Not when it isn't funny, Kettle.
00:19:56All right.
00:19:57I just thought you should hear the sound of the only Indian within a hundred miles.
00:20:02Maybe you really believe that tall tale of yours, huh?
00:20:04If Dora Hartley could speak from the grave, she'd tell you.
00:20:08Her killing was done by a stray full of whiskey.
00:20:12What if you're wrong?
00:20:13Well, if he's right, I say that we should run out of here so fast that the wind would knock
00:20:17over the trees.
00:20:18It's too late.
00:20:20The time it took you ladies to make up your minds gave the Comanches time to close off the valley.
00:20:25Two days ago, even yesterday, could have been different.
00:20:28We're asking about today and tomorrow.
00:20:31I say we stay here.
00:20:32All of us.
00:20:34How many of you ladies know how to shoot?
00:20:42You can put your hand up.
00:20:44I can shoot good damn Yankee.
00:20:46Mr. Hewitt, only the good book tells me what is right to do.
00:20:52I don't believe in shooting and killing.
00:20:56Miss Cora, the Comanches won't be reading the good book through their rifle sights.
00:21:01Miss Hanna, I appoint you sergeant and second in command.
00:21:06Pick yourself a couple of corporals.
00:21:08I'll take Ann Martin and Stella Latham.
00:21:10Good.
00:21:11Now get those horses unhitched and put them in the corral.
00:21:15Get your belongings inside the mission.
00:21:17Well, now, I sure wish you troopers a lot of luck.
00:21:20Because you're sure gonna need it.
00:21:27Goin' somewhere, Kettle?
00:21:35Maybe you do need a man around here.
00:21:38At least when you're sure it's on your side.
00:21:41At least I chose a side.
00:21:43All right, let's get to work.
00:21:45You heard the man.
00:21:50Oh, Ann, I'm glad you're here.
00:21:53Yeah, yeah.
00:21:56All right, men, use your muscles.
00:21:58Turn it over.
00:22:07In there.
00:22:09Push.
00:22:10Push.
00:22:13All right, lieutenant.
00:22:15All right.
00:22:17Ready, men?
00:22:18One, two, three, heave!
00:22:25Any three men, lieutenant.
00:22:27Any three men.
00:22:28Yeah, well, target practice.
00:22:35Good.
00:22:37Hold it, hold it.
00:22:39Get your head down so you can see that front sight.
00:22:44That's it.
00:22:49That's fine, Eddie.
00:22:55You all right?
00:22:57I don't think you'll ever hit any of them with that cannon, but you'll sure as blaze it for care
00:23:01of them to death.
00:23:05If I remember correctly, you don't need much practice.
00:23:10And I'll take my gun back, if you don't mind.
00:23:37I'll take my gun back, if you don't mind.
00:23:45I'll take my gun back.
00:23:45I'll take my gun back, if you don't mind.
00:23:45And I'll take my gun back, if you don't mind.
00:23:48I'll take your gun back.
00:24:14Look, you're supposed to be doing a skirmish, not dancing a polka.
00:24:21Eccles, get down.
00:24:23You're just asking for a bullet in the back of your lap, and it's a hard place to tie a
00:24:26bandage.
00:24:27Do it again.
00:24:29And this time, I want you to hit that ground with the heart. It splits wide open.
00:24:34Say, General, this ain't the kind of work I'm accustomed to.
00:24:38You sure you can't think of some more pleasing arrangement for the both of us?
00:24:42Fall in!
00:24:45On the double!
00:24:57You got to brace your feet. Brace your feet, girls. Next!
00:25:03Hold it. Hold it.
00:25:06That's not the way I showed you.
00:25:09Get over there, Martin.
00:25:12You've got to use their momentum.
00:25:14All right, fast.
00:25:20You see?
00:25:21We've been working all day long.
00:25:24We've been working all day long.
00:25:27We've been working all day long.
00:25:29Fasting the water, darling.
00:25:32Fast the bucket down the line.
00:25:34Fast the bucket down the line.
00:25:37Start on that one over there.
00:25:40If, like you say, the Indians don't attack at night, why couldn't we bring the water in there?
00:25:44Well, they'll be needing water, and we don't want them to have it.
00:25:47We've been working all day long. Fasting the water, darling.
00:25:52We've been working all day long.
00:25:54We've been working.
00:25:59Oh, it's no wonder. We're not slaves.
00:26:02You've no right to work us to death, hardly my smelling salts.
00:26:06Get back in line and keep that water moving.
00:26:08How dare you talk to me like that?
00:26:10Move!
00:26:14You'd better rest for a while.
00:26:18Sit here.
00:26:21You'll be all right.
00:26:21Just a little touch of sun.
00:26:35Emmett, Emmett, you've got to help me.
00:26:37Look, let's not start that again, huh?
00:26:39I can't stand it any longer.
00:26:41Sometimes I think I'm losing my mind.
00:26:43You haven't told the others yet, have you?
00:26:44No, but do you think it'll take them long to guess?
00:26:47Oh, Emmett, please marry me.
00:26:50Look, I...
00:26:51I told you I'm not ready for marriage yet.
00:26:54Better get inside or back behind the wall.
00:26:56Behind the wall, Emmett!
00:26:58Behind the wall!
00:27:01Come on, get down.
00:27:02Get down.
00:27:17All right, let's get to work.
00:27:18Throw all these pieces down the hole.
00:27:26All right, let's get down.
00:27:26It's about ready.
00:27:37Martin, there's an old saying that an army travels on his stomach.
00:27:41I'm glad we're not going anywhere.
00:27:42Put some more salt in.
00:27:47Don't waste that lid, it'll scare us.
00:27:55Don't reload any of these with the rough edges.
00:28:06What's wrong with your petticoat, Ogden?
00:28:08We need bandages.
00:28:10I heard Hedgy give up hers.
00:28:13Take it off.
00:28:15What?
00:28:16Take it off right now.
00:28:17How dare you?
00:28:19You take it off, or I'll take it off for you.
00:28:21Hedgy?
00:28:23If you were in South Carolina, sir, you'd be horse-whipped.
00:28:34Let me introduce a lady.
00:28:36La-dee-da!
00:28:38La-dee-da!
00:28:39A lady with a very pompous air.
00:28:42La-dee-da!
00:28:43She can't see you passerby
00:28:45Cause her nose is in the sky
00:28:47Her boots are fancy leather
00:28:49In her bonnet there
00:28:51We needed the petticoat.
00:28:55La-dee-da!
00:28:58Hi, Stell.
00:28:59Can I talk to you?
00:29:00Sure.
00:29:04What do you really think our chances are?
00:29:10Indians is hard to tell.
00:29:12I don't know what this can be.
00:29:16Frank, I told you I got married a week after you went away.
00:29:19Ask me why.
00:29:21You said Ed Latham's a good man.
00:29:24He is.
00:29:25But ask me if I love him.
00:29:28That's not a fit question.
00:29:30I guess I married him out of hurt and spite.
00:29:33I don't blame you for that.
00:29:35I went crazy wild at what you've done.
00:29:38Forget it.
00:29:38Before you say something, you'll be sorry for later.
00:29:41I'm so glad I can say it at last.
00:29:44Frank, in my heart, I've never been wife to Ed.
00:29:48When I saw you come riding in, it was like a dam bursting inside me.
00:29:52Let all my feelings loose.
00:29:55Hey, Stella!
00:29:56Stella!
00:29:57What is it, Bax?
00:29:58Sergeant Hannah needs you.
00:30:00I'll be there in a minute.
00:30:01She wants you right away.
00:30:08I made that up to make her go.
00:30:11Now, mister.
00:30:13Hey, careful where you're pointing that gun.
00:30:15I know where I'm pointing it.
00:30:17At a no-good Yankee.
00:30:19Trouble away in, don't you?
00:30:20Think we ought to forget about the war, Bax?
00:30:22When my brother went away, he told me to look after his wife.
00:30:25I bet you've been doing a good job, too.
00:30:27We were just talking about Ed.
00:30:29Out here, like that?
00:30:32Hey, Bax, can you keep a man's secret?
00:30:34Depends.
00:30:35You're a good brother, Bax, but you've got things a little mixed up.
00:30:38You see, I already have a girl.
00:30:41Which one of them is she?
00:30:42You'll find out.
00:30:43Which one?
00:30:45Well.
00:30:51There she is now.
00:30:54Bax, come back here.
00:30:58Hello.
00:30:59Hello, Bax.
00:31:02Ann Martin?
00:31:04That's right.
00:31:08She's nice.
00:31:10Yeah.
00:31:11Now, you remember it's a secret.
00:31:13Sure.
00:31:14It's time you got to bed.
00:31:16Good night.
00:31:17Put that gun away.
00:31:24Look, what makes him so sure them Indians are between us and safety, huh?
00:31:28And that it's too late to make a run.
00:31:30Dorell Hartley was pretty good proof.
00:31:33All right.
00:31:33Even if he was right,
00:31:35why aren't we better off trying to fight our way the 200 miles
00:31:38than sitting around here waiting to be slaughtered like a bunch of sheep?
00:31:41Well, that's something to think about.
00:31:44Look, we can make it easy if we travel light.
00:31:47We load everyone in a couple of wagons,
00:31:49hitch stakes to horses on behind,
00:31:51then when the first teams give out,
00:31:53we change over.
00:31:55Simple?
00:32:07Simple?
00:32:18Skill?
00:32:35Simple?
00:32:37Google?
00:32:37Google?
00:32:37Google?
00:33:42Sergeant Lacey!
00:33:44Sergeant Lacey!
00:33:48The lieutenant and cattle!
00:33:50They're fighting over there!
00:34:08What happened, Hewitt?
00:34:10Deserter.
00:34:11No!
00:34:11What are you, huh?
00:34:13Look, what I did was an account of Hewitt.
00:34:15He drove off all the horses.
00:34:17Did you?
00:34:18Yes.
00:34:19Why?
00:34:20Why?
00:34:20I'll tell you why.
00:34:21Because he was afraid some of us would slip away and tell where he was hiding.
00:34:24I don't believe it.
00:34:26It's partly true.
00:34:28Last night I heard cattle trying to talk you into running away.
00:34:32Sounded like he might decide to do it.
00:34:34So you made up our minds for us?
00:34:36Somebody had to.
00:34:37Even if it might wipe us all out without giving us the right to decide for ourselves.
00:34:41Right, Danny, right.
00:34:42But you notice, he kept one horse here for his own getaway.
00:34:46That was for scouting, nothing else.
00:34:48Oh, sure?
00:34:49A likely story.
00:34:51Huh.
00:34:52Fine thing.
00:34:53When you've got to believe in no good turncoat, just a minute.
00:34:56Right or wrong about the horses, Frank put himself in the same boat with the rest of us.
00:34:59What do we do with that varmint?
00:35:01Lock him up until the fighting starts.
00:35:03All right.
00:35:04Get going.
00:35:12Frank, look.
00:35:15I'm afraid it's your place, Stella.
00:35:18We can hope they head north.
00:35:19We'll be ready just the same.
00:35:21Right.
00:35:22Back to your post, men.
00:35:23Move along.
00:35:25Move along.
00:35:34Sentry.
00:35:36All clear, Lieutenant.
00:35:38Keep your eyes open.
00:35:40What you're trying to do for us now is one thing.
00:35:42But he doesn't make up for the bad you did before.
00:35:45What bad was that?
00:35:47You ran out on Texas in the South.
00:35:49How could you do that?
00:35:50I don't have to live with people, but I do have to live with my conscience.
00:35:53And your conscience tells you to turn traitor against your friends and neighbors, I suppose.
00:35:57You'll think your way and I'll think mine.
00:36:00Got all the guns clean, Lieutenant.
00:36:02Fine, Bax.
00:36:03Say, I'm sure glad you two didn't bust up.
00:36:05Bax?
00:36:06Bust up.
00:36:07Oh, don't worry.
00:36:08I've kept the secret about you being this girl.
00:36:10Bax, you better go see if the horse is all right.
00:36:13You told him I was your girl?
00:36:16Yeah, I had to.
00:36:17Why?
00:36:19Oh, he saw me talking to Stella and he jumped to a conclusion.
00:36:22Stella Latham.
00:36:24I'm glad I found out about that, too.
00:36:27Oh, Ann.
00:36:31Here's your water and candle.
00:36:33Oh, wait, Mary.
00:36:34Wait, please.
00:36:36Whatever happens, Mary, I wanted you to know that I was wrong.
00:36:41So wrong.
00:36:42No.
00:36:43I was wrong.
00:36:44Right.
00:36:45I guess maybe you were to have anything to do with a person like me.
00:36:49I should never believe you were the very...
00:36:51Listen to me.
00:36:51Please, Mary, listen.
00:36:54Do you remember before the war, the monthly square dances?
00:36:57The men were so thick around you, a fellow couldn't get closer than ten feet without having his toes crushed.
00:37:03Then the war came along, and all the men in the valley left except me.
00:37:08And I guess I... I forgot how lucky I am.
00:37:13What suddenly makes you remember?
00:37:15We've been here, waiting to die.
00:37:17We deserve to die.
00:37:18I do, Mary, I do, but not you and the...
00:37:21Oh, darling, we've got something to live for now.
00:37:27Marriage?
00:37:29Yes.
00:37:30Oh, no one here can.
00:37:33I know, darling, I know, but that horse, that horse will carry us to where there is one who can.
00:37:41Win it.
00:37:42Could we?
00:37:43Yes, darling.
00:37:46My darling, I...
00:37:48I love you so much.
00:37:51Oh.
00:37:55Keys, darling, unlock the door.
00:37:58Hurry, darling.
00:38:00Hurry.
00:38:10Conorvin Gibbons, time for guard duty.
00:38:12Your daughter ought to be in bed.
00:38:15Come on, honey.
00:38:20I wonder what it's like to have a kid of your own.
00:38:23A way to find out.
00:38:24Married and settled down.
00:38:26Me?
00:38:30New country, new life.
00:38:32Why not?
00:38:33Why not?
00:38:35I knew a shoemaker once.
00:38:36I became a violinist.
00:38:43Yeah.
00:38:50It's a good choice.
00:38:54Emmett.
00:38:56Emmett!
00:38:57Don't leave me!
00:38:59No time!
00:39:00No time!
00:39:01No!
00:39:03No time!
00:39:05No!
00:39:07No!
00:39:08No!
00:39:09No!
00:39:11No!
00:39:11No!
00:39:17Open up!
00:39:18Perryway!
00:39:18No!
00:39:19No!
00:39:19No!
00:39:20Enid!
00:39:21Gentle escape.
00:39:22She tried to stop him, but she couldn't.
00:39:23We'll take her.
00:39:25Oh, no!
00:39:26No!
00:39:28Help me, Cora!
00:39:34No!
00:39:35No!
00:39:35No!
00:39:36No!
00:39:44You lied for her.
00:39:47One question.
00:39:48Why did you keep the horse here?
00:39:52I might have been able to lead the Indians away
00:39:54before they spotted the place.
00:39:56They'd have caught you.
00:39:58Maybe.
00:40:29Hello?
00:40:31Hello?
00:40:33Hello?
00:40:36Anyone here?
00:40:51Amigo, set up three more.
00:40:57Well, come on, make it fast.
00:40:59These moorings are terribly dry.
00:41:01Look, I'm no bartender.
00:41:06I think you are.
00:41:08We lost the other one that way.
00:41:10Tortilla missed.
00:41:11Yes, sometimes.
00:41:16Amigo, how much money you got?
00:41:18None.
00:41:19I haven't got any.
00:41:40It's pretty low.
00:41:47What are you going to do?
00:41:51Come over here.
00:41:55What are you going to do to me?
00:41:57Leave me alone.
00:41:59Put your arms up.
00:42:00Shut up.
00:42:04Look, I've got nothing.
00:42:06All I want to do is get out of here.
00:42:07I can't.
00:42:07We've found out.
00:42:10Leave me alone, will you?
00:42:11Put your foot.
00:42:12Put your foot.
00:42:14Put your foot.
00:42:15Put your foot.
00:42:15Get them up.
00:42:16Get them up, please.
00:42:16It's a heavy one.
00:42:17Get them up, please.
00:42:18Help me alone.
00:42:20Now.
00:42:22There.
00:42:23Now, tell me how much money you got?
00:42:26None.
00:42:26I told you.
00:42:27None.
00:42:28Oh, amigo.
00:42:29I must shoot you for lying.
00:42:31I'm not lying.
00:42:33I'm not lying.
00:42:33I'm not.
00:42:35Look.
00:42:36My pockets are empty.
00:42:37Search.
00:42:37Search.
00:42:38I'm going to have to shoot you for not having no money.
00:42:41No.
00:42:42Look.
00:42:43Will you tell your boys to stop this joke and cut me out out of here?
00:42:49I wish I could, my friend.
00:42:51But we're in somewhat of a dilemma.
00:42:53If you're lying, he has to shoot you.
00:42:55And if you have no money, he has to.
00:42:57Now, what's it going to be?
00:43:02Look.
00:43:04Supposing I was to tell you where there was gold.
00:43:08Gold.
00:43:09Where's it at?
00:43:11Cut me down.
00:43:13He said where?
00:43:15The old mission.
00:43:16Twelve hours west of here.
00:43:18Old boy, why would you tell us not keep it yourself?
00:43:21Well, I couldn't.
00:43:22I couldn't.
00:43:22You see, there's a bunch of women there, afraid of an Indian attack.
00:43:26They held me prisoner, but I escaped.
00:43:28And they got jewels and gold there.
00:43:32What do you mean?
00:43:35Supposing there is no gold?
00:43:36There is.
00:43:38They're still the women.
00:43:40And also Indians.
00:43:42Oh, what are you scared of?
00:43:43So long as we're locked up in this valley, we might as well enjoy it.
00:43:45Yes, unless amigo lies and there is no women.
00:43:48I'm not lying.
00:43:49I'm not.
00:43:50Well, then we come back to him and complain.
00:43:52What is to keep amigo here?
00:43:54I'll wait.
00:43:55I'll wait.
00:43:55Look, I want my share of the gold, too.
00:44:03That's fair enough.
00:44:09You're sure you're not lying?
00:44:12No.
00:44:13About the gold?
00:44:15No.
00:44:16Or the women?
00:44:18No.
00:44:20Well, then, I'm afraid I really must, old boy.
00:44:23Oh, no.
00:44:25No!
00:44:26Please!
00:44:27After all, it's not good to have too many people know about a hoard of gold.
00:44:30Or women.
00:44:37Well, I hope his horse is good.
00:44:40Mine's a bit lame.
00:45:03in the ...
00:45:04Sergeant Hannah!
00:45:04Sergeant Hannah!
00:45:06Yes?
00:45:07Indians!
00:45:09Everybody to that post!
00:45:11Get the lieutenant!
00:45:13Get in there.
00:45:29Idiot!
00:45:36Is everybody at their post?
00:45:38Yes.
00:45:39Well, get to yours.
00:45:49They're not Indians.
00:45:51Maybe we've got ourselves some help.
00:45:56They're wet men.
00:45:59Well, open the door.
00:46:14Well, welcome, then.
00:46:16You heard what the lady said, boys. Looks like we've come to the right place at the right time.
00:46:20Correct. You're just in time for a little Indian attack.
00:46:25Indians?
00:46:26That's a nasty word, lady. Don't josh.
00:46:29It's no joke, gentlemen. Glad you're here. We can sure use three more guns.
00:46:34Good.
00:46:35Hey, where'd you get that horse?
00:46:38Where's Kettle?
00:46:39Oh, he sent us in his place.
00:46:41That's right, amigo.
00:46:43He said that you need help here pretty bad.
00:46:46Well, three for one. That's not...
00:46:48Friend, we're only interested in two things. One of them's gold. Now, where's it at?
00:46:53What are you talking about?
00:47:01Now, get!
00:47:16These are women.
00:47:19Get going, Buster.
00:47:45You better take him inside.
00:47:48All right, everybody. Back to your posts.
00:48:05We're gonna let them women get away with that.
00:48:07Tonight'll be a different story.
00:48:09Look!
00:48:12Woo!
00:48:14Yeah!
00:48:15Son of a bitch!
00:48:18Woo!
00:48:18Woo!
00:48:20Woo!
00:48:20Woo! Woo!
00:48:33Woo!
00:48:39Woo!
00:48:40Woo!
00:48:42Woo!
00:48:43Woo!
00:48:44Woo!
00:48:44Woo!
00:48:45Woo!
00:48:46Woo!
00:48:47Woo!
00:48:48Woo!
00:48:49Woo!
00:48:50Woo!
00:48:50Woo!
00:48:50Woo!
00:48:51Woo!
00:48:51Woo!
00:48:52Woo!
00:48:52Woo!
00:48:53Woo!
00:48:53Woo!
00:48:54Woo!
00:49:05Peace! Peace! We don't mean no trouble!
00:49:08No, no. We like Indians.
00:49:10One of you talk English?
00:49:12Me.
00:49:13Medicine man, tell your people we're friends.
00:49:15Yes, amigos. Amigos, my name is not there. I never heard a fly.
00:49:20It was not a fly. We're poor men. We have no gold.
00:49:24Honest!
00:49:24We know where there is gold and jewels.
00:49:27Big like a mountain. Gold only good for white men.
00:49:30No, amigo, maybe you're interested in white women who brought the gold and jewels.
00:49:35Ah, Chihuahua. Beautiful, everyone.
00:49:39And a Polish soldier, Shevington.
00:49:40Shevington's man.
00:49:42Shevington.
00:49:43Where?
00:49:46The medicine man is the man of his word.
00:49:48Yes, no?
00:49:49Where?
00:49:50There. Back there.
00:49:52It's in the medicine.
00:49:53You lie.
00:49:55No, amigo.
00:49:56To prove to you that we are honest, we will stay here and wait for you.
00:50:00Si?
00:50:01After all, we are entitled to a chair of the gold, no?
00:50:04You honest. You come with us.
00:50:21You're headed toward us, all right?
00:50:24Back to your post!
00:50:25No, no, wait.
00:50:26We've got to take a gamble.
00:50:28Get everybody on the roof.
00:50:29Roof?
00:50:30What do you mean?
00:50:31Come on, move!
00:50:31I'm back!
00:50:32Hurry up!
00:50:33Move!
00:50:34Move!
00:50:45Everybody on the roof!
00:50:47Everybody on the roof!
00:51:02Go!
00:51:02No, no, no, no.
00:51:31No one's to move or talk.
00:51:33One call can make the difference is whether we stay alive or not.
00:52:06Where are people?
00:52:10Well, they've got to be there.
00:52:11We've seen them, didn't we?
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:14Oh, my God.
00:52:18All the way.
00:52:20As they're.
00:53:04The Lord is my strength, my wrath.
00:53:23No women, no water, but they got to be, they were all around, we were talking to them right
00:53:31here.
00:53:31That's right, Chief.
00:53:32They couldn't have just flew away.
00:53:39Chief, I know it!
00:54:02They're going away.
00:54:08We're safe.
00:54:10I knew if I prayed there would be no killing.
00:54:12You didn't do those three any good.
00:54:14All right, let's get below.
00:54:17We sure fooled them, didn't we?
00:54:23Frank, what have I done?
00:54:26Could have happened to anyone, Max.
00:54:28Get to your post.
00:54:30Max, look after the children.
00:54:38Let's go!
00:54:39Roll it off!
00:54:44Oh, my God.
00:55:18You can shoot. Get over there.
00:55:21That's an order. You'll obey if I have to drag you over there.
00:55:48What are they doing?
00:55:50They're waiting for the medicine man to tell them if the signs are in their favor.
00:56:06Hold your fire, McCastlin. They're out of range.
00:56:08They just want us to get scared and use up ammunition.
00:56:11Mother of Moses, you can't get any scarier than I am right now.
00:56:23This is it. Let him come in the center of the yard before you shoot.
00:56:26Don't waste any bullets.
00:56:36Now!
00:57:06Hey, get down. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
00:57:29Hold your fire!
00:57:30Hold your fire!
00:57:37Martin, get those outposts in.
00:58:05Why weren't you firing that piece?
00:58:08Lieutenant, the Lord was plain enough in his commands about violence and bloodshed.
00:58:13Seems to me he also said something about an eye for an eye.
00:58:23You're on the other side!
00:58:29We can't stay here! Get below!
00:58:37Martin, Lacey! See if you can get some fire in there.
00:58:59Is she dead?
00:59:02She was guilty.
00:59:05She was stained with the mark of sinners.
00:59:07Shut up!
00:59:12Come on, get her below, quick.
00:59:19Mary!
00:59:31Oh, what the use of all this!
00:59:36We can't beat them!
00:59:38Let's not just wait her to die!
00:59:46What are you standing around here for?
00:59:48What did you think it was gonna be, a picnic?
00:59:52Sergeant, take care of her.
00:59:54What's it look like out there, Gibbons?
01:00:06What's it look like out there, Gibbons?
01:00:07Put her over there.
01:00:08Mama!
01:00:11Talk to me, Mama!
01:00:12Mama!
01:00:13Oh, Mama!
01:00:16Mama!
01:00:17Come on, baby.
01:00:19Come on, baby.
01:00:20Come on, baby.
01:00:20Come on.
01:00:20I want to stay here by Mama, please!
01:00:22I know, baby.
01:00:23I know, but it's gonna be all right.
01:00:25Oh, please!
01:00:25You come with me.
01:00:26I know, baby.
01:00:27You come with Lucy, huh?
01:00:28I'll take good care of you.
01:00:29I promise, you know.
01:00:30Everything's gonna be all right, honey.
01:00:33It's gonna be all right.
01:00:46It's gonna be all right.
01:00:56Lucy, I wish to apologize for the bad things I've said about you, and the worst things I've thought about
01:01:04you.
01:01:06Forget it.
01:01:08I...
01:01:13How many casualties?
01:01:15Two dead.
01:01:16Quite a few nicks.
01:01:19It could've been worse.
01:01:22What happens now?
01:01:24We wait until the medicine man says a few prayers to decide when to attack again.
01:01:30How will we know?
01:01:32There won't be any secret.
01:01:57It can't be so bad things I've found.
01:01:59There won't be any secret.
01:01:59It can't be so bad things me Bingo.
01:02:03I always can't see with me for one thing.
01:02:03How many casualties do you catch me after moving?
01:02:03Oh, well, have you be 항ame.
01:02:22Oh, them golden slippers, oh, them golden slippers, golden slippers I'm gonna wear
01:02:28Cause they look so neat
01:02:30Conover, quit it. We need all the rest we can get.
01:02:34Those drums are driving me crazy.
01:02:36Frank! Frank, you're sneaking up on us!
01:02:53Hold it! Hold it!
01:02:54That's no attack. They're coming to claim they're dead.
01:03:00Sergeant Lacey, as soon as they moved away, send a detail and bury those three renegades.
01:03:04Right!
01:03:07I'm sorry.
01:03:08You did right.
01:03:10How are you holding up, McCastlin?
01:03:13Just tired.
01:03:15I know this may sound strange after the way I acted, but
01:03:20When you're liable to be sleeping for a long while, you try to crowd in as much living as you
01:03:25can, and time is left.
01:03:27You're a good soldier. Go get some rest.
01:03:29Thanks.
01:03:36Frank, I want you to know whatever happens, I've learned one thing out of it.
01:03:43Life is meant for only one thing.
01:03:45Every minute of it.
01:03:47To love and to be loved.
01:03:49That's all that counts.
01:03:51Stella, listen.
01:03:51Please.
01:03:53And if we live through this, I'm going to tell my husband that what never really started between him and
01:03:59me is never going to start.
01:04:01And then I'm going home to Joplin.
01:04:03And wait.
01:04:15Jones, take over here.
01:04:18You're going on guard at three o'clock. You better get some sleep.
01:04:20Stop treating me like a child.
01:04:23I treat you all the same.
01:04:24Except Stella Latham.
01:04:26That's crazy.
01:04:27No.
01:04:28You can fool a young boy like Bax.
01:04:30You can stoop to using a lie about me to fool him.
01:04:32Listen, if you don't want to be treated like a child, don't act like one.
01:04:34Come on.
01:04:49Skid Ann?
01:04:51We all are, you know.
01:04:53It's not that.
01:04:57Oh.
01:05:03What then? The love bug bite you?
01:05:06No.
01:05:10I don't know. I just don't know.
01:05:17Oh, to be young and not know the source of your troubles.
01:05:22He's a Yankee. Yes, and he's a liar, too.
01:05:25Here, now. If you love him, you help him. He's got nothing but troubles.
01:05:35Men, gather round a minute. I want to talk to you.
01:05:38He ought to be back in the army. Always shouting, shouting orders.
01:05:43His shouting doesn't fool me. Why, he's wearing himself sick for all of us.
01:05:47Try not to show it.
01:05:50That's why he's shouting.
01:05:53Now, good soldiers are entitled to the truth.
01:05:56We can stay here till they burn us out or we can carry the fight to them.
01:06:00You're leaving the decision up to us?
01:06:03Why, Lieutenant? You don't tell us how to nurse babies,
01:06:06so we don't tell you how to fight Comanches.
01:06:09That's right.
01:06:13What's the matter? What happened?
01:06:15Him.
01:06:16Him?
01:06:17Oh, that medicine man.
01:06:19I got so dang mad at him, praying to his God about killing some more of us
01:06:23that I just loaded up old Betsy with five times the regular...
01:06:27Ah, look at her.
01:06:29Five times?
01:06:31Well, he's more than a mile away.
01:06:33He is?
01:06:33These guns are only good for 300 yards at best.
01:06:36They always keep their medicine men well out of range.
01:06:38Ah, guess I figured I'd prove my God was more powerful than his.
01:06:44Ah, guess I was just hoping for a miracle.
01:06:50A miracle, huh?
01:06:52Let's go outside and see if we can fix up one.
01:06:54Yeah, I should...
01:06:55Huh?
01:06:56Oh, let's go.
01:07:14Sure you can hit these things?
01:07:15We'll hit them.
01:07:17Don't forget the rest of what I told you.
01:07:18From now on, it's up to you. I'm staying here.
01:07:21You trying to get yourself killed?
01:07:24Obey orders.
01:07:27All right, men.
01:07:29Back to the fort.
01:07:32That's enough.
01:07:52What's holding you up, Martin?
01:07:55Well, it's...
01:07:55It's too bad when a person wastes time until maybe there isn't any more time.
01:08:00Time for what?
01:08:03Hardly more than...
01:08:05Maybe goodbye.
01:08:07Or to say I'm sorry for all the mean things I've said without having sense enough to realize I'd regret
01:08:11them.
01:08:14You know, with any luck, I think we might have been friends.
01:08:19Maybe more than that.
01:08:20I have cried.
01:08:29I'll give it to them.
01:08:33I'm sorry.
01:08:38I'm sorry.
01:08:40I'm sorry.
01:08:41I'm sorry.
01:08:49I'm sorry?
01:09:31How does it look, Sergeant?
01:09:32Looks like the ride upset about something.
01:09:35Good luck.
01:09:36Same to you.
01:10:02Now put your sights on them bombs and squeeze gently.
01:10:06Come on!
01:10:25Hey, T. Stewart!
01:10:30Frank, he's running away!
01:10:31Yeah, he's running away to do that miracle I tried with that old musket last night.
01:10:37He's gone to get the medicine man.
01:10:43Fire!
01:11:03Did he make it?
01:11:04Yes, Vax, he made it. Go on over there with the other children. Go on.
01:11:06I'm the only man left. My place is for hell. Fight like a man.
01:11:09No, Vax. Do as I tell you.
01:11:11No. You got no right to say no. After what I did.
01:11:17Here's a gun that isn't being used. You take that last window.
01:11:54Here's a gun.
01:12:08Here's a gun.
01:12:49Here's a gun.
01:12:50Guard that window!
01:13:02We make a great team, Hattie.
01:13:04Yes, we sure do.
01:13:06I'll get some more ammunition.
01:13:07Yes, ma'am.
01:13:16Hattie!
01:13:18I guess, from now on now, you'll have to do your own hair and dressing.
01:13:25Shootin' too.
01:13:35You're making a mistake!
01:13:44You're making a mistake!
01:13:47You're killing the wrong ones!
01:13:49You're dead.
01:13:52Hattie!
01:13:54Hattie!
01:13:54Oh, no!
01:13:55Hattie!
01:13:56Hattie!
01:13:57Hattie!
01:14:01Carl, what are you doing?
01:14:08Hey, no!
01:14:11I'm gonna kill them!
01:14:13Ammunition.
01:14:18Go easy with it. We've only a little left.
01:14:22This thing is stuck.
01:14:30Let's go!
01:14:58Let's go!
01:14:58Let's go!
01:14:59Let's go!
01:14:59Come on!
01:15:01Come on!
01:15:02Oh, my God!
01:15:05Oh, my God!
01:15:08Oh, my God!
01:15:19Oh, my God!
01:15:22Oh, my God!
01:15:27Ammunition. Ammunition over here. Here, too.
01:15:42Drag him over to the front.
01:15:46When I throw this rope down, tie it under his arm, someone.
01:16:10There it is.
01:16:20Give me a hand on the stroke.
01:16:25Open the door.
01:16:35That's good. Give me some slack.
01:16:44There's superstitions run to the floor on this side and do it.
01:16:58Let's go.
01:16:59I saw Wookie.
01:17:06Wookie!
01:17:08Wookie!
01:17:09Wookie!
01:17:11Lieutenant, I got an apology.
01:17:13You're a better man than I am!
01:17:15Wookie!
01:17:21Ann.
01:17:22Yes?
01:17:24I have to go away for a while.
01:17:26For how long, I don't know.
01:17:29But I'll go remembering that with any luck we might have...
01:17:32...maybe been more than friends.
01:17:34Then why go?
01:17:36I'm still a deserter.
01:17:38A man doesn't want to spend all of his life running.
01:17:42Where's he gone?
01:17:51The defendant will step forward and face the court.
01:18:01The court has carefully weighed the evidence...
01:18:03...which has been presented by the prosecution and the defense.
01:18:06And it is the unanimous verdict of this court...
01:18:08Attention!
01:18:10At ease, gentlemen.
01:18:13Don't let me interrupt, Colonel Shevington.
01:18:14You're in charge.
01:18:19Lieutenant Hewitt is charged with insubordination and desertion.
01:18:24Where did you apprehend him?
01:18:25He came back voluntarily, but with the wildest story of a dream by man...
01:18:30...of having ridden to Texas, rallied a bunch of women in fall of an Indian attack.
01:18:33That was no story.
01:18:35The defendant will remain silent.
01:18:38The general may be interested to know that Yellow Horse and Broken Foot...
01:18:42...were brought in three days ago.
01:18:43True, they admitted having been in a fight.
01:18:45One they'll never forget.
01:18:47And a fight with buffalo hunters, not some imaginary petticoat brigade.
01:18:52Out of my way, sonny! Up on your feet! Every one of you!
01:18:55What's the meaning of this?
01:18:56We come to fetch the lieutenant!
01:18:58Stand easy, boys. This ain't no bugle I'm holding.
01:19:01Colonel, this is that phantom petticoat army you spoke about.
01:19:05I'd like to have you meet McCaslin, Ogden, Conover, Sergeant Lacey...
01:19:09...Mellivan, Corporal Martin.
01:19:12Incidentally, six of the best marksmen you ever saw.
01:19:15Yeah. Well, now that we've been introduced, let's get out of here.
01:19:18Hold it, Lacey.
01:19:20Look, men, I appreciate what you're trying to do for me, but you ought to get me hung.
01:19:25You women clear out of here before I have you driven out.
01:19:28Mr. Colonel, if there's any driving to do, we'll do it.
01:19:36Mellivan, what's come over you?
01:19:39The good Lord let me know that if something's worth fighting for, a body better fight.
01:19:45Sergeant Webber, have the bugler sound assembly!
01:19:51May we have a truce?
01:19:52That depends!
01:19:54Just long enough to admit that the South has counter-attacked in force and we've lost disengagement.
01:20:02Also, the numerous reports I've received prove that the wrong man has been on trial here.
01:20:07The evidence is overwhelming.
01:20:09And I might add some of it downright attractive.
01:20:15Lieutenant, your testimony will be required at the trial of Colonel Shivington in the matter of the Sand Creek Massacre.
01:20:21Colonel, return to your quarters.
01:20:23Stella wanted me to tell you that she took your advice and stayed behind to wait for her husband.
01:20:27Lieutenant, thank you. And God bless you.
01:20:36That was for the slap, Frank.
01:20:38I made a good trade, McCaslin.
01:20:40Thanks again.
01:20:42Congratulations, Lieutenant.
01:20:46You know, I don't think I'll ever get used to you without gun smoke on your face.
01:20:50You'd better try, Renegade.
01:20:52Congratulations, Lieutenant.
01:20:54Thank you, Nancy.
01:20:55Ogden and I are gonna raise Nancy to be a real lady.
01:20:58You think that'll kind of square things?
01:21:00I think that'll square a lot of things.
01:21:02Good luck.
01:21:03And good luck to you, too.
