1
00:00:28,204 --> 00:00:34,710
"Precious Lord"
2
00:00:36,045 --> 00:00:42,301
"Take my hand"
3
00:00:44,261 --> 00:00:53,646
"Lead me on"
4
00:00:54,772 --> 00:01:00,402
"Let me stand"
5
00:01:01,153 --> 00:01:07,409
"I am tired"
6
00:01:08,494 --> 00:01:14,750
"I am weak"
7
00:01:16,293 --> 00:01:24,217
"I am worn"
8
00:01:26,637 --> 00:01:36,646
"Through the storm"
9
00:01:37,356 --> 00:01:47,783
"Through the night"
10
00:01:49,409 --> 00:01:58,793
"Lead me on"
11
00:02:00,545 --> 00:02:05,133
"Through the night"
12
00:02:06,384 --> 00:02:10,930
"Take my hand"
13
00:02:11,973 --> 00:02:17,937
"Precious Lord"
14
00:02:18,980 --> 00:02:25,862
"And lead"
15
00:02:26,279 --> 00:02:31,075
"Me home"
16
00:02:32,994 --> 00:02:37,457
"Take my hand"
17
00:02:38,750 --> 00:02:48,551
"Precious Lord"
18
00:02:49,177 --> 00:02:56,184
"And lead"
19
00:02:56,642 --> 00:03:04,358
"Me home"
20
00:05:00,515 --> 00:05:02,392
uh-oh.
21
00:05:04,853 --> 00:05:07,355
What is it ?
22
00:05:11,109 --> 00:05:13,820
- What do they want ?
- I don't know.
23
00:05:15,780 --> 00:05:19,325
Just pass me. Pass me.
24
00:05:24,873 --> 00:05:28,001
- Is it a cop ?
- I can't see.
25
00:05:29,544 --> 00:05:33,965
- What the fuck are they playin' at ?
- They ain't playin'. You better believe it.
26
00:05:44,892 --> 00:05:48,354
- What are we gonna do ?
- I don't know.
27
00:05:53,943 --> 00:05:56,029
OK. Hold on, you guys.
28
00:06:07,248 --> 00:06:09,876
There's a truck too.
29
00:06:25,933 --> 00:06:28,352
Shit. It is a cop.
30
00:06:30,271 --> 00:06:32,314
You better stop.
31
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:36,777
OK. Sit tight, you guys.
Don't say anything. Let me talk.
32
00:06:38,070 --> 00:06:41,198
All right ? We'll be all right. Just relax.
33
00:07:18,277 --> 00:07:21,113
Y'all think you can drive
any speed you want around here ?
34
00:07:21,196 --> 00:07:23,282
You had us scared to death, man.
35
00:07:23,365 --> 00:07:27,744
- Don't you call me "man", Jew-boy.
- No, sir. What should I call you ?
36
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,499
You don't call me nothin',
nigger-lovin' Jew-boy. You just listen.
37
00:07:33,625 --> 00:07:35,711
Yes, sir.
38
00:07:36,878 --> 00:07:41,300
Hell, you even startin' to smell
like a nigger, Jew-boy.
39
00:07:41,383 --> 00:07:45,220
- Take it easy. We'll be all right.
- Sure you will, nigger-lover.
40
00:07:45,303 --> 00:07:49,599
He's seen your face. That ain't good.
You don't want him seein' your face.
41
00:07:49,683 --> 00:07:53,228
Oh, it don't make no difference no more.
42
00:07:56,565 --> 00:08:01,236
Whoa, shit ! We into it now, boys.
43
00:08:01,319 --> 00:08:04,614
You only left me a nigger,
but at least I shot me a nigger.
44
00:08:07,325 --> 00:08:09,411
Yes, indeed.
45
00:08:33,309 --> 00:08:36,437
"Now listen,
you communists and niggers and Jews"
46
00:08:36,521 --> 00:08:39,149
"Tell all your buddies to spread the news"
47
00:08:39,232 --> 00:08:42,610
"Your Day of Judgment will soon be nigh"
48
00:08:42,694 --> 00:08:45,613
"As the Lord in his wisdom
looks down from on high"
49
00:08:46,447 --> 00:08:49,284
"Will his battle be lost
by mixin' the races ?"
50
00:08:49,576 --> 00:08:53,663
"We want beautiful babies,
not ones with brown faces"
51
00:08:53,746 --> 00:08:56,541
"Never, never, never, I say"
52
00:08:56,624 --> 00:08:58,751
"For the Ku Klux Klan is here to stay"
53
00:08:58,835 --> 00:09:00,920
"Never, never, never, I say"
54
00:09:01,004 --> 00:09:04,215
"Cause the Ku Klux Klan is here to stay"
55
00:09:04,298 --> 00:09:07,593
These Ku Kluxers are better
with lynchings than with lyrics.
56
00:09:07,677 --> 00:09:12,515
Just read the file, Mr Anderson.
I can do without the cabaret.
57
00:09:12,598 --> 00:09:15,726
- You don't like me much, do you, boss ?
- Sure I like you.
58
00:09:15,977 --> 00:09:19,397
I just don't share your sense of humour.
59
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,983
Sometimes that's all you got left.
60
00:09:22,066 --> 00:09:25,194
- How long you been in the Bureau ?
- Three years.
61
00:09:25,278 --> 00:09:29,240
- Right outta college, huh ?
- No. From the Justice Department.
62
00:09:30,283 --> 00:09:32,660
Kennedy boy. Now I see.
63
00:09:33,411 --> 00:09:36,580
No. I don't think you do see.
64
00:09:36,664 --> 00:09:39,208
Let's get this thing straight.
65
00:09:39,291 --> 00:09:42,795
I haven't had a pimple in years.
I shave every morning.
66
00:09:42,878 --> 00:09:47,091
I even go to the bathroom by myself.
So you can quit this "boss" stuff.
67
00:09:48,134 --> 00:09:51,220
I'm in charge because
I've been through this before.
68
00:09:51,303 --> 00:09:56,308
- Birmingham ? Montgomery ?
- Oxford. I was with Meredith at Old Miss.
69
00:09:56,392 --> 00:10:00,354
Oh. You got hit in the head with a brick,
so they gave you a promotion.
70
00:10:00,437 --> 00:10:02,565
No. Shot in the shoulder.
71
00:10:04,108 --> 00:10:09,822
- Well, at least you lived. That's important.
- Meredith lived. That's what's important.
72
00:10:17,329 --> 00:10:20,999
What's got four eyes and can't see ?
73
00:10:21,083 --> 00:10:23,794
- What ?
- Mississippi.
74
00:10:25,838 --> 00:10:28,257
"Never, never, never, I say"
75
00:10:28,340 --> 00:10:31,593
"Cause the Ku Klux Klan is here to..."
76
00:11:04,501 --> 00:11:07,420
- Big building for a small town.
- Yeah.
77
00:11:11,299 --> 00:11:13,385
Howdy.
78
00:11:45,583 --> 00:11:48,711
Good morning. My name's Alan Ward.
79
00:11:49,796 --> 00:11:51,881
I'm with the FBI.
80
00:11:52,423 --> 00:11:55,009
Federal Bureau of Integration ?
81
00:11:58,471 --> 00:12:03,768
- In that get-up, you ain't undercover.
- We're here to see Sheriff Stuckey.
82
00:12:03,851 --> 00:12:06,604
Sheriff's right busy now.
83
00:12:07,980 --> 00:12:11,109
You'll have to wait
or come back some other time.
84
00:12:13,361 --> 00:12:15,446
We'll wait.
85
00:12:27,708 --> 00:12:30,711
Listen to me,
you backwoods shit-ass, you.
86
00:12:30,795 --> 00:12:35,841
You got two seconds to get the sheriff out
here or I'll kick the goddamn door in. OK ?
87
00:12:39,637 --> 00:12:42,682
Well, hell.
Looks like we got some company.
88
00:12:42,765 --> 00:12:45,017
Some Hoover boys come down to visit.
89
00:12:45,101 --> 00:12:47,186
- How ya doin' ?
- Good.
90
00:12:47,770 --> 00:12:50,231
- I'm Sheriff Stuckey.
- Rupert Anderson.
91
00:12:50,731 --> 00:12:53,192
Rupert, we've been expectin' you.
92
00:12:53,275 --> 00:12:57,571
- I assume you met my deputy, Mr Pell.
- Sure did.
93
00:12:58,113 --> 00:13:00,950
You down here to help us
solve our nigger problems ?
94
00:13:01,033 --> 00:13:04,286
No. It's just a missing-person case.
95
00:13:04,370 --> 00:13:06,455
Well, come on.
96
00:13:06,539 --> 00:13:10,167
- You gonna want your boy in on this ?
- Sheriff...
97
00:13:10,251 --> 00:13:14,421
I'm Special Agent Ward
and I'm in charge of this case.
98
00:13:14,505 --> 00:13:18,676
We think it might be a little
more serious than missing persons.
99
00:13:18,759 --> 00:13:21,637
I don't think so, boy.
Know what I think it is ?
100
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,891
It's a publicity stunt cooked up
by that Martin Luther King fella.
101
00:13:25,974 --> 00:13:28,685
Come on.
102
00:13:41,448 --> 00:13:45,577
At around 3 p.m., Deputy Pell says
he arrested the three boys for speeding.
103
00:13:45,661 --> 00:13:49,456
He held them in jail until 10 p.m.
and then released them.
104
00:13:49,539 --> 00:13:53,585
They drove off. He says he followed them
as far as the county line...
105
00:13:53,669 --> 00:13:55,754
...and never saw them again.
106
00:13:57,756 --> 00:14:00,092
Why didn't they make a phone call ?
107
00:14:00,175 --> 00:14:04,096
- Why should they ?
- These boys were trained activists.
108
00:14:04,179 --> 00:14:08,892
They're taught to check in every hour and,
if arrested, the moment they're released.
109
00:14:08,975 --> 00:14:14,731
The hotel is near the jail. They could've
phoned from the lobby. It doesn't follow.
110
00:14:14,815 --> 00:14:17,400
- Maybe they had a beer.
- Not these boys.
111
00:14:17,484 --> 00:14:21,696
The civil rights office in Rossville started
making calls when they didn't check in.
112
00:14:21,780 --> 00:14:26,117
The sheriff's office here said
they had no idea where the boys were.
113
00:14:26,868 --> 00:14:29,037
First lie.
114
00:14:31,206 --> 00:14:34,084
By who ?
Sheriff's office or civil rights office ?
115
00:14:34,167 --> 00:14:36,378
Who would you believe ?
116
00:14:36,669 --> 00:14:40,799
Mr Ward, I was a sheriff in a little
Mississippi town just like this.
117
00:14:40,882 --> 00:14:44,469
- Yes, I'm aware of that.
- Well, lyin' just don't come into it.
118
00:14:44,552 --> 00:14:48,431
We were ten miles from Memphis,
a million miles from the rest of the world.
119
00:14:48,515 --> 00:14:53,811
If a sheriff in a town like this says that's
what happened, that's what happened.
120
00:14:53,895 --> 00:14:55,980
Let's go eat.
121
00:15:10,370 --> 00:15:13,373
We're full up, honey.
Y'all wanna wait a while ?
122
00:15:13,456 --> 00:15:16,417
- Is the wait worth it ?
- We're not full for nothin', sugar.
123
00:15:16,501 --> 00:15:18,878
Y'all wanna look at a menu
while you wait ?
124
00:15:18,961 --> 00:15:20,797
Thank you.
125
00:15:21,631 --> 00:15:24,217
Well, what y'all gonna do ? Wait or leave ?
126
00:15:24,300 --> 00:15:26,928
We're gonna wait
'cause we wanna be near you.
127
00:15:27,970 --> 00:15:32,141
- There are some empty seats down there.
- Uh, Mr Ward...
128
00:15:32,225 --> 00:15:35,353
That's coloured down there.
Don't even think about it.
129
00:15:35,436 --> 00:15:40,566
- People here are gettin' ready to leave.
- Aren't you hungry, Mr Anderson ?
130
00:15:49,241 --> 00:15:51,535
Good afternoon. Looks good.
131
00:16:02,922 --> 00:16:05,799
Do you mind if I ask you a few questions ?
132
00:16:05,883 --> 00:16:08,135
I'm looking for some information.
133
00:16:11,222 --> 00:16:14,808
- I ain't got nothin' to say to you, sir.
- Just a few questions.
134
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,149
I ain't got nothin' to say to you, sir.
135
00:16:41,126 --> 00:16:46,840
The civil rights boys came to propose
setting up a voter registration clinic.
136
00:16:46,924 --> 00:16:50,427
Before the locals got a chance to say yes,
the Klan burned 'em down.
137
00:16:50,510 --> 00:16:54,681
- You give a man a vote but he can't use it.
- Yeah, that's the way it works.
138
00:16:54,765 --> 00:16:56,850
What did their office in Rossville say ?
139
00:16:56,934 --> 00:17:00,812
That the boys came back here
to apologise to the congregation.
140
00:17:01,730 --> 00:17:03,815
"Sorry you folks didn't get to vote."
141
00:17:03,899 --> 00:17:07,527
"I suppose most of you
never knew you even had one."
142
00:17:07,611 --> 00:17:10,113
"Now you got no place to go on Sunday."
143
00:17:12,032 --> 00:17:16,119
Apparently, after they came back here,
they talked to some locals down the road.
144
00:17:16,203 --> 00:17:20,499
- I think that's where we should start.
- Oh, they won't talk to you.
145
00:17:21,791 --> 00:17:24,878
These people have to live here
long after we're gone.
146
00:17:24,961 --> 00:17:27,797
They'd rather bite their tongue off
than talk to us.
147
00:17:27,881 --> 00:17:30,008
Bureau procedure, Mr Anderson.
148
00:17:37,641 --> 00:17:41,436
The church caught fire
and you ran home. Is that correct ?
149
00:17:41,936 --> 00:17:43,521
Yes, sir.
150
00:17:43,605 --> 00:17:46,232
And then the four white men
stopped you ?
151
00:17:46,316 --> 00:17:47,776
Yes, sir.
152
00:17:48,068 --> 00:17:51,404
And these four white men
attacked your husband ?
153
00:17:51,488 --> 00:17:53,823
Yes, sir.
154
00:17:53,907 --> 00:17:56,409
But you can't identify them.
155
00:17:57,952 --> 00:18:00,413
No, sir.
156
00:18:00,496 --> 00:18:03,124
Did you report this to the police ?
157
00:18:03,208 --> 00:18:05,710
No, sir.
158
00:18:05,793 --> 00:18:08,546
But you told the civil rights boys
what happened ?
159
00:18:08,630 --> 00:18:11,049
Yes, sir.
160
00:18:11,132 --> 00:18:14,761
Ma'am, did they tell you
where they were going after that ?
161
00:18:18,556 --> 00:18:21,726
- No, sir.
- Nothing ?
162
00:18:21,809 --> 00:18:23,895
No, sir.
163
00:18:25,813 --> 00:18:28,232
All right. Thank you, ma'am.
164
00:18:28,441 --> 00:18:30,318
You're welcome.
165
00:18:43,164 --> 00:18:45,750
- Come on, boy.
- Open up.
166
00:18:48,002 --> 00:18:50,379
- Your brother Hollis here, Fennis ?
- Yes, sir.
167
00:18:50,463 --> 00:18:52,923
Well, wake his ass up. We wanna see him.
168
00:18:53,007 --> 00:18:54,967
- Why ?
- Just wake him up, boy.
169
00:18:55,051 --> 00:18:57,678
- What is it ?
- There you are, nigger trash !
170
00:19:00,222 --> 00:19:02,308
Come here, boy !
171
00:19:02,391 --> 00:19:03,726
Hollis ! Hollis !
172
00:19:05,102 --> 00:19:07,730
Get your ass back here,
you fuckin' nigger !
173
00:19:07,813 --> 00:19:09,690
Hollis ! Hollis !
174
00:19:25,789 --> 00:19:28,292
We better not catch you talkin' to the FBI.
175
00:19:28,375 --> 00:19:30,836
Or you'll be dead, boy. Real dead.
176
00:19:49,521 --> 00:19:52,691
You admire these kids, don't you ?
177
00:19:52,774 --> 00:19:55,277
Don't you ?
178
00:19:55,360 --> 00:19:57,446
I think they're bein' used.
179
00:19:58,530 --> 00:20:01,950
They're sent here in their
Volkswagens and sneakers...
180
00:20:02,034 --> 00:20:04,119
...just to get their heads cracked open.
181
00:20:04,202 --> 00:20:07,998
Did it ever occur to you that maybe
they believed in what they were doing ?
182
00:20:08,081 --> 00:20:12,085
- Did it occur to them they'd end up dead ?
- Maybe.
183
00:20:12,169 --> 00:20:15,756
In Washington they sure as hell knew,
didn't they ?
184
00:20:15,839 --> 00:20:18,550
Some things are worth dying for.
185
00:20:20,343 --> 00:20:23,972
Well, down here
they see things a little differently.
186
00:20:25,348 --> 00:20:29,102
People down here feel
some things are worth killin' for.
187
00:20:31,980 --> 00:20:35,650
Where does it come from, all this hatred ?
188
00:20:38,653 --> 00:20:41,406
You know, when I was a little boy, ...
189
00:20:41,489 --> 00:20:45,744
...there was an old Negro farmer lived
down the road from us, name of Monroe.
190
00:20:45,827 --> 00:20:51,041
And he was... Well, I guess he was just
a little luckier than my daddy was.
191
00:20:55,754 --> 00:20:57,839
He bought himself a mule.
192
00:20:59,382 --> 00:21:02,552
That was a big deal around that town.
193
00:21:02,635 --> 00:21:05,388
My daddy hated that mule.
194
00:21:05,471 --> 00:21:10,977
His friends kidded him that they saw
Monroe ploughin' with his new mule...
195
00:21:11,060 --> 00:21:15,732
...and Monroe was gonna rent
another field now that he had a mule.
196
00:21:17,567 --> 00:21:20,528
One morning that mule
just showed up dead.
197
00:21:22,905 --> 00:21:25,366
They poisoned the water.
198
00:21:26,409 --> 00:21:31,456
After that there was never any mention
about that mule around my daddy.
199
00:21:35,251 --> 00:21:39,589
One time we were drivin' past
Monroe's place and we saw it was empty.
200
00:21:39,672 --> 00:21:43,885
He'd just packed up and left, I guess.
Gone up North or somethin'.
201
00:21:45,970 --> 00:21:48,931
I looked over at my daddy's face...
202
00:21:51,017 --> 00:21:53,477
...and I knew he'd done it.
203
00:21:53,561 --> 00:21:55,521
And he saw that I knew.
204
00:21:55,604 --> 00:21:57,690
He was ashamed.
205
00:21:58,774 --> 00:22:00,860
I guess he was ashamed.
206
00:22:03,154 --> 00:22:05,990
He looked at me and he said...
207
00:22:06,073 --> 00:22:10,202
..."If you ain't better than a nigger,
son, who are you better than ?"
208
00:22:12,288 --> 00:22:14,415
Do you think that's an excuse ?
209
00:22:14,498 --> 00:22:18,210
No, it's not an excuse.
It's just a story about my daddy.
210
00:22:22,923 --> 00:22:25,467
Where does that leave you ?
211
00:22:25,551 --> 00:22:27,636
With an old man who was so full of hate...
212
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:32,391
...that he didn't know that
bein' poor was what was killin' him.
213
00:22:40,858 --> 00:22:42,943
Get the light ! Get the light !
214
00:22:45,195 --> 00:22:47,281
You all right ?
215
00:22:57,416 --> 00:22:59,668
I guess they know we're here.
216
00:23:35,871 --> 00:23:38,373
Now you know what you're gettin' into.
217
00:23:38,456 --> 00:23:41,543
I'm gonna call Washington.
I need more agents.
218
00:23:41,626 --> 00:23:45,380
Would it change your mind if I say
that's exactly the wrong thing to do ?
219
00:23:45,463 --> 00:23:46,840
No.
220
00:24:34,679 --> 00:24:39,684
The whole place for 75 a month.
It's private. It's central. It's perfect.
221
00:24:40,893 --> 00:24:42,979
There's room for a hundred more agents.
222
00:24:43,062 --> 00:24:45,940
Two hundred, maybe.
More in the balcony.
223
00:24:46,023 --> 00:24:49,193
We're just trying to find the three boys,
Mr Anderson.
224
00:24:49,277 --> 00:24:51,654
I'll take all the help I can get.
225
00:24:53,823 --> 00:24:55,908
When's the show start ?
226
00:25:50,087 --> 00:25:53,340
- Who's the big shot ?
- It's the Klan.
227
00:25:54,299 --> 00:25:57,970
No pointy hats but plenty of pointy heads.
228
00:25:58,887 --> 00:26:01,181
Let me run a check on the plates.
229
00:26:31,837 --> 00:26:34,297
Good afternoon, gentlemen.
230
00:26:34,381 --> 00:26:37,801
Anderson.
Say hello to our mayor, Mr Tilman here.
231
00:26:38,301 --> 00:26:41,096
- How do you do, Anderson ?
- Mr Mayor. Mr Barber.
232
00:26:43,139 --> 00:26:47,644
Well, this looks like the place to be.
Even for me.
233
00:26:47,727 --> 00:26:52,524
Yep. Nothin' like a barbershop
for jawin' your socks off.
234
00:26:53,149 --> 00:26:55,151
Where you from, Anderson ?
235
00:26:55,235 --> 00:26:58,697
Thornton, Mississippi, sir.
Just a spit from Tennessee.
236
00:26:58,988 --> 00:27:02,534
Well, then you must know
how we all feel down here.
237
00:27:02,617 --> 00:27:06,204
We don't take to outsiders
tellin' us how to live our lives.
238
00:27:06,287 --> 00:27:08,915
And I'm here to tell ya,
our nigras were happy...
239
00:27:08,998 --> 00:27:12,877
...till those beatnik college kids
came down here stirrin' things up.
240
00:27:12,961 --> 00:27:16,297
Before that, there wasn't
anybody complainin'.
241
00:27:16,381 --> 00:27:18,967
Nobody dared.
242
00:27:19,717 --> 00:27:22,929
We got a real peaceful
community down here, Anderson.
243
00:27:23,012 --> 00:27:27,725
Course, they're just like any other folks,
I reckon, when you push 'em too far.
244
00:27:27,809 --> 00:27:32,689
The way I figure it,
it's like three sticks of old dynamite.
245
00:27:32,772 --> 00:27:37,568
You shake it up... and we're gonna
be scrapin' bodies off the street.
246
00:27:38,653 --> 00:27:42,949
I'm just here to investigate the missing
three kids, ask some questions.
247
00:27:43,032 --> 00:27:45,201
If this all boiled down to gravy, ...
248
00:27:45,284 --> 00:27:48,454
...there wouldn't be enough
to cover a chicken-fried steak.
249
00:27:48,538 --> 00:27:55,628
Them kids you're lookin' for ? I'd bet you a
shiny new dime they're in Chicago now...
250
00:27:55,711 --> 00:28:01,050
...drinkin' a cold beer and havin' a laugh
about the commotion they stirred up here.
251
00:28:01,133 --> 00:28:03,094
Well, I sure hope so.
252
00:28:03,177 --> 00:28:07,765
You can tell your bosses people got
the wrong idea about the South.
253
00:28:08,808 --> 00:28:10,893
You know what I'm talkin' about.
254
00:28:10,976 --> 00:28:14,563
Everybody runnin' around ragged,
backwards and illiterate, ...
255
00:28:14,647 --> 00:28:18,526
...eatin' sowbelly and corn pone
three times a day.
256
00:28:18,609 --> 00:28:22,822
Simple fact is, Anderson,
we got two cultures down here.
257
00:28:22,905 --> 00:28:26,700
White culture and a coloured culture.
258
00:28:26,784 --> 00:28:31,205
That's the way it always has been.
That's the way it always will be.
259
00:28:31,288 --> 00:28:35,918
- The rest of America don't see it that way.
- The rest of America don't mean jack shit.
260
00:28:36,001 --> 00:28:38,337
You in Mississippi now.
261
00:28:38,921 --> 00:28:41,048
Oh, that's for sure !
262
00:28:43,425 --> 00:28:47,137
- What's the score, Mr Barber ?
- St Louis on top, five to nothing.
263
00:28:47,221 --> 00:28:49,848
- What inning is it ?
- Bottom of the seventh.
264
00:28:49,932 --> 00:28:53,435
- You like baseball, Anderson ?
- Yeah, I do. You know, ...
265
00:28:55,270 --> 00:29:00,109
...it's the only time when a black man
can wave a stick at a white man...
266
00:29:00,609 --> 00:29:02,903
...and not start a riot.
267
00:29:18,835 --> 00:29:20,796
Sir.
268
00:29:20,879 --> 00:29:24,341
We checked on the plate, sir.
Clayton Townley.
269
00:29:24,424 --> 00:29:28,470
Townley. Grand Wizard of
the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.
270
00:29:28,553 --> 00:29:31,431
That's him. And we have a lead on the car.
271
00:29:31,515 --> 00:29:35,268
A Choctaw on the reservation
thinks he knows where it is.
272
00:29:35,352 --> 00:29:36,603
Good.
273
00:29:52,619 --> 00:29:55,246
You have an appointment next Tuesday ?
274
00:29:55,330 --> 00:29:57,415
I'll see you then. Bye-bye.
275
00:30:24,317 --> 00:30:26,986
Afternoon, ladies.
276
00:30:27,070 --> 00:30:29,739
- Can I help you ?
- Well, yes, you can.
277
00:30:29,822 --> 00:30:33,701
I tell you, I just...
I hate the way I look. You know ?
278
00:30:33,785 --> 00:30:37,497
What do you think ? A permanent wave,
maybe ? Or a bleach job ?
279
00:30:39,207 --> 00:30:43,294
- That looks good. Was it done in here ?
- No. Jackson.
280
00:30:43,378 --> 00:30:49,008
A wig's your only hope, hon. You won't
be able to do much with that cue ball.
281
00:30:50,676 --> 00:30:54,430
If you wanna ask us some questions,
this is where you'll hear it all.
282
00:30:54,514 --> 00:30:56,641
Yeah, matter of fact, I do.
283
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:01,145
I was wonderin' who that gentleman was
that just drove in over there.
284
00:31:01,229 --> 00:31:05,566
- I know that isn't President Johnson.
- His name's Townley. Clayton Townley.
285
00:31:05,650 --> 00:31:09,403
- Are you one of them FBI gentlemen ?
- Yes, ma'am, I am.
286
00:31:09,487 --> 00:31:14,659
Well, I think it's a shame if those two kids
are dead. But I sure hope you find 'em.
287
00:31:14,742 --> 00:31:19,038
Thank you. Actually, three kids are
missin'. There's a coloured kid also.
288
00:31:19,413 --> 00:31:23,876
Do you think your people'd be down here
if it weren't for those two white boys ?
289
00:31:23,959 --> 00:31:26,128
- Maybe not, miss.
- Mrs.
290
00:31:26,378 --> 00:31:29,590
Pell. Her old man's Ray Stuckey's deputy.
291
00:31:32,802 --> 00:31:34,887
But I'm single.
292
00:31:54,239 --> 00:31:56,325
Move out of the way.
293
00:31:58,911 --> 00:32:02,956
Move over, boy.
We'll take care of this. It's a local problem.
294
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,084
We'll handle this.
We don't need your damn help.
295
00:32:08,629 --> 00:32:13,091
It ain't right havin' blood on Main Street.
How'd that look on the TV news ?
296
00:32:14,968 --> 00:32:17,429
- Get up.
- OK, I got him. I got him.
297
00:32:21,683 --> 00:32:23,310
He's the kid from the diner.
298
00:32:23,393 --> 00:32:26,813
Think twice before you talk to
coloured kids with an audience.
299
00:32:26,897 --> 00:32:30,359
They're sending a message from
the boss in Tupelo, and you know it.
300
00:32:30,442 --> 00:32:33,320
I know it, yes. Clayton Townley,
chief pointy head.
301
00:32:33,403 --> 00:32:36,656
Yeah, that's right. How did you know ?
302
00:32:36,740 --> 00:32:39,117
Bureau procedure, Mr Ward.
Try it sometime.
303
00:32:39,201 --> 00:32:40,827
We did.
304
00:32:40,911 --> 00:32:43,413
We found the car the kids were driving.
305
00:33:23,828 --> 00:33:25,914
Good morning.
306
00:33:34,589 --> 00:33:36,674
Good morning.
307
00:34:57,212 --> 00:35:00,883
Two beer cans, a Coca-Cola bottle,
a green plastic bottle, ...
308
00:35:00,966 --> 00:35:06,513
...a badly burned wristwatch stopped
at 12.45, and a set of keys. No bodies.
309
00:35:06,597 --> 00:35:11,018
- I want the area searched. Every inch.
- Yes, sir.
310
00:35:11,101 --> 00:35:13,812
- It's a big swamp.
- Every inch, Mr Bird.
311
00:35:17,900 --> 00:35:20,444
I guess they never left Mississippi.
312
00:35:21,862 --> 00:35:24,364
They're dead. They're dead.
313
00:35:25,449 --> 00:35:27,409
Mr Bird ?
314
00:35:27,492 --> 00:35:31,204
- Yes, sir ?
- There's a telephone at the truck stop.
315
00:35:31,288 --> 00:35:35,792
Get to it, get on it, and get me
a hundred more men here by morning.
316
00:35:36,335 --> 00:35:38,420
- A hundred ?
- A hundred.
317
00:35:38,837 --> 00:35:41,923
- Bureau people, sir ?
- I don't care if it's the army !
318
00:35:42,007 --> 00:35:45,260
- I want this entire swamp searched !
- Yes, sir.
319
00:35:48,430 --> 00:35:50,682
Don't do it, Mr Ward.
320
00:35:50,765 --> 00:35:54,686
- You'll just start a war.
- It was a war long before we got here.
321
00:36:53,077 --> 00:36:55,538
Get the fuck outta here now !
322
00:37:36,245 --> 00:37:38,330
Sir ?
323
00:37:39,123 --> 00:37:43,919
The sheriff's alibi is solid. He was playing
poker with his wife's brother and cousins.
324
00:37:44,003 --> 00:37:48,048
- The whole time ?
- For three hours. He lost $11.38.
325
00:37:49,675 --> 00:37:54,430
There's something else. We're having
a little trouble with the motel manager.
326
00:37:54,513 --> 00:37:58,934
- What kind of trouble ?
- He wants us out. We're bad for business.
327
00:37:59,018 --> 00:38:01,061
Buy it.
328
00:38:01,145 --> 00:38:03,689
- Sorry, sir ?
- Buy it !
329
00:38:04,732 --> 00:38:06,650
The motel.
330
00:38:06,734 --> 00:38:09,445
- How high can I go ?
- Whatever it takes.
331
00:38:33,218 --> 00:38:35,679
Today in Jessup County, Mississippi, ...
332
00:38:35,762 --> 00:38:39,349
...amidst the violence of this week,
the eyes of the nation...
333
00:38:39,433 --> 00:38:43,395
...are fixed on the search
for the missing civil rights workers.
334
00:38:43,729 --> 00:38:48,650
I think it's all a big hoax. But if they
are in that swamp, then they asked for it.
335
00:38:48,734 --> 00:38:54,739
Naval reserves have joined FBI
agents in searching for the missing men.
336
00:38:54,823 --> 00:38:59,494
I think they planned it. They're sittin' up in
New York laughin' at us Mississippi folks.
337
00:38:59,578 --> 00:39:04,666
- You think it's a hoax ?
- A big hoax. They gonna find nothin'.
338
00:39:04,749 --> 00:39:09,170
Civil rights leaders are optimistic
as to the young men's whereabouts.
339
00:39:09,254 --> 00:39:13,842
But privately there is mounting concern
that they will ever be found alive.
340
00:39:13,925 --> 00:39:16,594
They came lookin' for trouble
and found it.
341
00:39:16,761 --> 00:39:21,141
This is Marek Barlbobi, Network News,
Jessup County, Mississippi.
342
00:39:23,435 --> 00:39:28,022
Tell you what I think they oughta be doin'.
Lookin' up in Canada for them boys, ...
343
00:39:28,106 --> 00:39:30,733
...instead of our swamps around here.
344
00:39:30,817 --> 00:39:36,364
I'll tell you somethin' else. I think it's
a stunt dreamed up by NAAC people.
345
00:39:36,447 --> 00:39:39,367
- NAAC people ?
- NAACP.
346
00:39:39,450 --> 00:39:44,539
Know what it stands for ? Niggers,
Alligators, Apes, Coons and Possums.
347
00:39:44,622 --> 00:39:47,333
Tell you what you got.
You got your NAACP.
348
00:39:47,417 --> 00:39:51,212
You got your SNCC. You got your COFO.
349
00:39:51,296 --> 00:39:55,842
You know what all that mess is ?
B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T.
350
00:39:55,925 --> 00:39:58,011
You got it ?
351
00:40:01,639 --> 00:40:07,270
One day we won't have to say
"Good morning, sir, Mr Sheriff."
352
00:40:07,353 --> 00:40:11,649
Maybe there'll come a time when
we won't have to say "Mr Stuckey".
353
00:40:11,732 --> 00:40:16,237
One day there'll come a time when
we'll just say "Stuckey" or "Sheriff".
354
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:20,867
And one day there'll come a time when
the sheriff won't even be a white man.
355
00:40:32,294 --> 00:40:34,088
Hello.
356
00:40:37,425 --> 00:40:40,219
I wonder if I could ask you
a few questions.
357
00:40:40,302 --> 00:40:44,723
I don't suppose you could tell me
what kind of flower these are, could you ?
358
00:40:44,807 --> 00:40:47,852
I been seein' 'em
all over the place here and...
359
00:40:48,936 --> 00:40:51,730
Never saw such a darn pretty plant.
360
00:40:52,773 --> 00:40:54,650
They're trumpet-pitchers.
361
00:40:54,733 --> 00:40:56,735
Trumpet-pitchers ?
362
00:40:57,069 --> 00:40:59,572
They're beautiful. They really are.
363
00:40:59,822 --> 00:41:03,200
They don't smell so good
but they're pretty.
364
00:41:07,496 --> 00:41:09,581
It's nice talkin' to you.
365
00:41:09,665 --> 00:41:14,670
Sorry about interruptin' your meeting
but we can't get anybody to talk to us.
366
00:41:14,753 --> 00:41:16,880
They zip up, like my momma used to say.
367
00:41:16,964 --> 00:41:21,927
People don't wanna talk to you because
they're afraid it'll get back to the law.
368
00:41:22,010 --> 00:41:24,680
- We are the law.
- Not around here you ain't.
369
00:41:25,472 --> 00:41:31,812
We came to find out what happened to
those boys. They were here to help you.
370
00:41:31,895 --> 00:41:36,733
- It ain't coloured folks you should talk to.
- Who should we talk to ?
371
00:41:37,526 --> 00:41:39,611
Come on, Aaron.
372
00:41:40,487 --> 00:41:43,657
You should start with the sheriff's office.
373
00:41:45,117 --> 00:41:48,036
- Why aren't you afraid ?
- How come you ain't ?
374
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,955
Aaron ?
375
00:41:50,997 --> 00:41:53,667
Aaron, come on, son.
376
00:42:06,429 --> 00:42:11,434
Here's the pitch. Swing and a line-drive
base hit. Another run is home.
377
00:42:15,105 --> 00:42:18,400
On to the next pitch by the ruffled
Bob Gibson. He is upset.
378
00:42:18,483 --> 00:42:21,444
Ron Hunt singled to centre.
Hickman passed third...
379
00:42:21,528 --> 00:42:23,697
...and scored the Mets' second run.
380
00:42:23,780 --> 00:42:26,449
Hunt holds on at first,
and the Mets lead two to one.
381
00:42:38,962 --> 00:42:43,216
Good evening, Mrs Pell. I'm Agent Ward.
This is Agent Anderson.
382
00:42:43,299 --> 00:42:45,593
We're with the FBI.
383
00:42:45,677 --> 00:42:47,762
Is your husband home ?
384
00:42:47,845 --> 00:42:50,348
We'd like to have a word with him.
385
00:42:51,015 --> 00:42:53,101
Y'all come in, then.
386
00:42:59,607 --> 00:43:04,112
It's the FBI gentlemen, Clinton. They
wanna ask you some more questions.
387
00:43:04,195 --> 00:43:06,489
You want me to put
your dinner in the oven ?
388
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,702
Leave us alone.
389
00:43:11,786 --> 00:43:13,871
Mind if I take a seat ?
390
00:43:17,708 --> 00:43:20,878
What's so goddamn important
you got to bother me at home ?
391
00:43:20,962 --> 00:43:25,800
I just wanted to run through once again
your movements on June 21st.
392
00:43:25,883 --> 00:43:28,094
June which ?
393
00:43:28,177 --> 00:43:30,263
June 21st.
394
00:43:30,346 --> 00:43:35,309
Deputy, we both know what day we're
talking about, so let's do this civilised.
395
00:43:35,393 --> 00:43:39,855
Then you get back to your ball game
and we can get back to Washington.
396
00:43:50,366 --> 00:43:52,910
Please, don't let me interrupt you.
397
00:43:53,702 --> 00:43:59,208
It's just when you've heard a question
a dozen times, it gets kinda boring.
398
00:43:59,708 --> 00:44:02,002
Yeah, I guess so.
399
00:44:08,384 --> 00:44:11,720
- You don't eat together ?
- He works funny hours.
400
00:44:14,765 --> 00:44:16,850
- You think that's odd ?
- No.
401
00:44:16,934 --> 00:44:19,353
No, I work funny hours myself.
402
00:44:22,231 --> 00:44:25,359
I eat when I'm hungry.
He eats when he can.
403
00:44:25,442 --> 00:44:29,071
- Can I get you somethin' ?
- No, no. Thanks.
404
00:44:29,154 --> 00:44:31,115
This is a nice house.
405
00:44:31,198 --> 00:44:34,451
- How long have you lived here ?
- I was born here.
406
00:44:34,535 --> 00:44:38,205
But my father lost the house
in a poker game a long time ago.
407
00:44:40,165 --> 00:44:43,168
We've been payin' rent ever since.
408
00:44:45,963 --> 00:44:48,674
It's a wicked game.
409
00:44:51,176 --> 00:44:52,928
Poker.
410
00:44:53,970 --> 00:44:56,056
Wicked.
411
00:44:56,139 --> 00:44:58,100
Mr Anderson ?
412
00:45:00,852 --> 00:45:03,605
It's nice talkin' to you. Guess I gotta go.
413
00:45:07,776 --> 00:45:10,695
Them pork chops still any good, honey ?
Bring me a beer.
414
00:45:10,779 --> 00:45:13,073
Good night.
415
00:45:13,698 --> 00:45:15,617
Let you get back to your baseball.
416
00:45:15,700 --> 00:45:19,454
They say it's the only game
where a black man can wave a stick...
417
00:45:19,537 --> 00:45:21,623
I know. I already heard that one.
418
00:45:27,629 --> 00:45:30,882
Fifty minutes of his alibi
hinges on his wife.
419
00:45:30,965 --> 00:45:34,260
- You talked to her. What's she like ?
- She's a nice lady.
420
00:45:34,344 --> 00:45:38,014
Tell me, Mr Anderson.
How does a woman like that end up with...
421
00:45:38,098 --> 00:45:41,976
With shithead in there ? You know
what these small towns are like.
422
00:45:42,060 --> 00:45:46,481
A girl spends all her time in high school
lookin' for the guy she's gonna marry...
423
00:45:46,564 --> 00:45:49,150
...and spends the rest
of her life wonderin' why.
424
00:45:49,234 --> 00:45:51,861
Something's wrong. He's too confident.
425
00:45:51,945 --> 00:45:54,781
- Did you see the wedding photograph ?
- No.
426
00:45:54,864 --> 00:45:58,785
His three pals, the ushers,
had their thumbs hooked in their belts...
427
00:45:58,868 --> 00:46:01,663
...with their three fingers pointing down.
428
00:46:01,746 --> 00:46:04,374
So what is that ?
Some sort of Masonic thing ?
429
00:46:04,457 --> 00:46:07,377
No ! KKK.
430
00:46:12,799 --> 00:46:15,885
I know you ain't drunk.
431
00:46:15,968 --> 00:46:19,138
- I'm not drunk.
- All right. You ain't drunk.
432
00:46:19,222 --> 00:46:22,725
I'm just gonna take you
where you can sleep it off.
433
00:46:22,809 --> 00:46:24,894
All right. Hold up.
434
00:46:27,897 --> 00:46:29,982
Watch your head.
435
00:47:24,036 --> 00:47:29,083
Hi. Uh... There was a couple of things
I needed to check with you.
436
00:47:29,166 --> 00:47:34,046
- My husband's not here.
- Actually, it was you I wanted to talk to.
437
00:47:34,755 --> 00:47:37,049
Me ?
438
00:47:37,132 --> 00:47:39,635
OK. You'd better come in, then.
439
00:47:43,639 --> 00:47:45,641
Just take a minute.
440
00:47:45,724 --> 00:47:48,852
My boss, he's kind of a pain.
A college kid.
441
00:47:48,936 --> 00:47:52,773
He has to dot all the i's
and cross all the t's.
442
00:47:52,856 --> 00:47:58,362
- What is it you wanted to ask me about ?
- It's a time thing we're not so clear about.
443
00:47:58,445 --> 00:48:01,490
Should I put your flowers
in some water while you're here ?
444
00:48:01,573 --> 00:48:03,658
Yeah. Actually they're for you.
445
00:48:04,910 --> 00:48:07,287
They're beautiful.
446
00:48:07,370 --> 00:48:09,498
They are pretty, aren't they ?
447
00:48:09,581 --> 00:48:12,501
They don't smell so nice
but they're pretty.
448
00:48:13,001 --> 00:48:15,504
Can I get you anything ? Some tea ?
449
00:48:15,587 --> 00:48:17,672
Yeah. Thanks.
450
00:48:32,937 --> 00:48:36,066
Oh, don't you look at that.
It's a terrible photo.
451
00:48:36,149 --> 00:48:38,651
Oh, I don't know about that.
452
00:48:39,444 --> 00:48:42,989
- Is this recent ?
- No. I wish.
453
00:48:43,073 --> 00:48:45,700
Well... this here looks recent to me.
454
00:48:45,784 --> 00:48:48,369
We were married 14 years ago.
455
00:48:48,453 --> 00:48:51,414
Are you kidding me ? No ! Come on.
456
00:48:52,916 --> 00:48:55,043
- You take sugar ?
- Sure do.
457
00:48:56,586 --> 00:49:00,965
- You know, I grew up in a town like this.
- You were smart enough to leave.
458
00:49:01,049 --> 00:49:02,967
Why didn't you ?
459
00:49:03,051 --> 00:49:05,136
"For better or for worse."
460
00:49:09,057 --> 00:49:11,726
How about you ? Are you married ?
461
00:49:13,394 --> 00:49:16,064
Well, I was, as I remember.
462
00:49:17,106 --> 00:49:19,817
It didn't last very long. I was never home.
463
00:49:19,901 --> 00:49:26,657
I guess she got fed up with... phone calls
from Miami, postcards from Des Moines.
464
00:49:27,116 --> 00:49:29,952
There was always a guy around.
465
00:49:30,036 --> 00:49:33,706
Any guy that could spare the time
for a movie or a beer...
466
00:49:33,789 --> 00:49:36,751
...or a quarter for the jukebox.
467
00:49:39,337 --> 00:49:41,756
She left.
468
00:49:45,259 --> 00:49:49,263
- How about you ?
- Well, you know the South, Mr Anderson.
469
00:49:50,389 --> 00:49:54,393
You leave high school and marry
the first boy who makes you laugh.
470
00:49:54,477 --> 00:49:56,896
Hey, your husband's quite a guy.
471
00:49:59,231 --> 00:50:04,695
You know, my boss has this thing
about an hour - 50 minutes, to be exact - ...
472
00:50:04,779 --> 00:50:08,365
...that your husband says
that he was with you.
473
00:50:11,827 --> 00:50:15,539
- And I guess he was.
- Guess he was.
474
00:50:18,751 --> 00:50:21,545
Well, that's a pity.
475
00:50:22,129 --> 00:50:27,259
That means that I don't have an excuse
for hangin' around here any more.
476
00:50:28,969 --> 00:50:30,554
Well...
477
00:50:31,430 --> 00:50:33,474
Thank you for the iced tea.
478
00:50:33,557 --> 00:50:36,060
- Thank you for the flowers.
- Sure.
479
00:50:38,687 --> 00:50:40,773
Do you know what kind they are ?
480
00:50:42,107 --> 00:50:46,153
- I heard they're called trumpet-pitchers.
- Oh, that's right.
481
00:50:46,236 --> 00:50:49,990
My daddy used to call 'em
ladies-from-hell because they're carn...
482
00:50:50,073 --> 00:50:51,825
Carnivorous.
483
00:50:51,909 --> 00:50:53,911
- That's the word ?
- Yeah.
484
00:50:53,994 --> 00:50:58,957
That pretty colour's the bait. Insects just
home in there and wham, they're dead, ...
485
00:50:59,041 --> 00:51:01,835
...even before they got their shoes off.
486
00:51:05,213 --> 00:51:07,549
Maybe I should've picked something else.
487
00:51:07,632 --> 00:51:09,509
Maybe.
488
00:51:17,976 --> 00:51:25,317
"Sing the wondrous love of Jesus"
489
00:51:25,859 --> 00:51:32,949
"Sing his mercy and his grace"
490
00:51:33,950 --> 00:51:41,750
"In the mansions, bright and blessed"
491
00:51:41,833 --> 00:51:48,757
"He'll prepare for us a place"
492
00:52:00,101 --> 00:52:05,398
- "...day of rejoicing that will be"
- "That will be"
493
00:52:05,899 --> 00:52:14,198
"When we all see Jesus"
494
00:52:14,532 --> 00:52:22,373
"We'll sing and shout the victory"
495
00:52:23,791 --> 00:52:27,754
May the peace and the joy
in the Holy Ghost abide with all of you...
496
00:52:27,837 --> 00:52:29,964
...for now and for ever. Amen.
497
00:52:46,731 --> 00:52:51,402
"When we all"
498
00:52:53,404 --> 00:52:58,576
"Get to heaven"
499
00:52:59,952 --> 00:53:06,751
"What a day offer joicing"
500
00:53:07,209 --> 00:53:11,297
"That will be"
501
00:53:12,548 --> 00:53:17,761
"When we all"
502
00:53:19,138 --> 00:53:24,727
"See Jesus, Jesus"
503
00:53:25,352 --> 00:53:29,940
"We'll sing and shout"
504
00:53:30,941 --> 00:53:34,486
"The victory"
505
00:53:38,991 --> 00:53:43,787
You already been told once, nigger.
We don't wanna have to tell you again.
506
00:53:43,871 --> 00:53:48,041
You make any more trouble by flappin'
them boot-lips off to them federal men, ...
507
00:53:48,125 --> 00:53:53,338
...we'll sure as hell put you in the ground,
boy, and that's without a pine box !
508
00:53:54,756 --> 00:53:57,050
You understand me ?
509
00:54:09,062 --> 00:54:11,898
How are Negroes treated in Mississippi ?
510
00:54:11,982 --> 00:54:16,278
They're treated about fair.
About as good as they oughta be.
511
00:54:22,159 --> 00:54:26,788
The niggers around here have been
treated awful bad for a long time.
512
00:54:37,048 --> 00:54:40,135
I think Martin Luther King's
one of the leaders.
513
00:54:40,218 --> 00:54:43,263
I mean, J. Edgar Hoover said
that he was a communist...
514
00:54:43,346 --> 00:54:45,974
...and they had proof to that effect.
515
00:54:46,057 --> 00:54:50,812
But I don't know that for sure. I hadn't
seen it myself, but that's what they say.
516
00:55:04,284 --> 00:55:06,494
Hey, you really wanna find that nigger ?
517
00:55:06,578 --> 00:55:12,000
They say we've got to eat together and
use the same bathroom as the niggers.
518
00:55:12,083 --> 00:55:15,420
And that's awful hard
for some Mississippi folks to do.
519
00:55:15,503 --> 00:55:21,384
They're not like us. They don't take baths.
They stink, they... they're nasty, ...
520
00:55:21,968 --> 00:55:24,095
...they're just not like white folks.
521
00:55:29,851 --> 00:55:32,437
What do you think has happened
to the three boys ?
522
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:34,605
Dead.
523
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:37,608
Just as dead as they can be.
524
00:55:38,067 --> 00:55:40,153
It feels so good.
525
00:55:43,072 --> 00:55:45,158
- Is she asleep ? Is she ?
- Yeah.
526
00:55:46,117 --> 00:55:49,620
Oh, my Lord. I'm sorry I woke you up.
527
00:55:52,582 --> 00:55:56,002
- Bye, hon. I'll be a couple of hours.
- All right.
528
00:55:56,085 --> 00:55:58,963
Well, Mary, is that your Betsy's kid ?
529
00:55:59,046 --> 00:56:02,717
Yeah.
She's growin' up real quick, ain't she ?
530
00:56:12,226 --> 00:56:14,728
Tuesday'll be just fine on those, Mary.
531
00:56:20,359 --> 00:56:22,027
Funny.
532
00:56:24,113 --> 00:56:26,198
Their kids are so cute.
533
00:56:32,621 --> 00:56:34,999
Is that thing back on me again ?
534
00:56:35,082 --> 00:56:38,627
If the entire Secret Service
couldn't protect the president, ...
535
00:56:38,711 --> 00:56:42,047
...how in hell are we supposed
to protect a few nigras ?
536
00:56:42,131 --> 00:56:47,803
It ain't nothin' but a bunch of lowlife white
trash drinkin' too much cheap alcohol.
537
00:56:47,886 --> 00:56:52,766
More like paint thinner and snake juice,
because this state's as dry as a martini, ...
538
00:56:52,850 --> 00:56:55,269
...and we got the alcoholics to prove it.
539
00:56:56,395 --> 00:56:59,731
Give me a little room here.
Excuse me, Bob.
540
00:57:02,109 --> 00:57:04,444
- Is this OK ?
- Your name, please ?
541
00:57:04,528 --> 00:57:07,281
Clayton Townley. Local businessman.
542
00:57:07,364 --> 00:57:11,702
Are you, sir, a spokesman for
the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan ?
543
00:57:11,785 --> 00:57:14,788
I told you. I'm a businessman.
544
00:57:14,871 --> 00:57:18,417
I'm also a Mississippian.
And an American.
545
00:57:18,500 --> 00:57:21,837
And I am sick and tired
of the way many of us Mississippians...
546
00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:25,465
...are havin' our views distorted
by your newspapers and on TV.
547
00:57:25,549 --> 00:57:27,634
So let's get this straight.
548
00:57:27,717 --> 00:57:31,513
We do not accept Jews
because they reject Christ.
549
00:57:31,596 --> 00:57:36,935
Their control of the international banking
cartels are at the root of communism.
550
00:57:37,018 --> 00:57:40,522
We do not accept Papists
because they bow to a Roman dictator.
551
00:57:40,605 --> 00:57:44,734
We do not accept Turks, Mongols,
Tartars, Orientals nor Negroes...
552
00:57:44,818 --> 00:57:48,196
...because we're here to protect
Anglo-Saxon democracy...
553
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,908
- ...and the American way.
- Thank you, sir.
554
00:57:54,619 --> 00:57:58,289
Lefty, you are livin' proof
that cousins shouldn't fuck.
555
00:58:01,543 --> 00:58:04,546
What I was tryin' to say...
there's this coloured boy.
556
00:58:04,629 --> 00:58:08,258
He wants to play football
for Bear Bryant over at Alabama.
557
00:58:08,716 --> 00:58:11,553
So Bear says
"I'm gonna give you a tryout."
558
00:58:11,636 --> 00:58:13,972
What's he gonna run with ? A water melon ?
559
00:58:15,306 --> 00:58:17,684
He's gonna keep on runnin' too.
560
00:58:17,767 --> 00:58:20,937
"OK, boy" he says.
"You get down there on one goal line."
561
00:58:21,020 --> 00:58:25,942
He puts a whole team on the other goal
line. He throws the boy the ball and says...
562
00:58:31,447 --> 00:58:35,076
- Are you open ?
- You got to be a member to drink here.
563
00:58:35,743 --> 00:58:38,246
A member ?
564
00:58:38,329 --> 00:58:40,415
A member of what ?
565
00:58:43,292 --> 00:58:45,378
A member of the social club.
566
00:58:46,129 --> 00:58:49,090
I thought you'd just buy me a beer.
567
00:58:50,132 --> 00:58:52,218
Give him a beer, Frank.
568
00:58:55,846 --> 00:58:58,808
Nice to be back in a dry county again.
569
00:58:58,891 --> 00:59:01,852
When I was sheriff,
half of my take-home pay...
570
00:59:01,936 --> 00:59:05,189
...was from collectin' taxes
on illegal jukes like this.
571
00:59:05,272 --> 00:59:07,149
Probably works the same here.
572
00:59:07,233 --> 00:59:11,195
I would think you'd haul in a tidy penny
here, winkin' at the bootleggers.
573
00:59:11,278 --> 00:59:13,614
I wouldn't know nothin' about that.
574
00:59:13,698 --> 00:59:17,034
Yeah... A tidy penny.
575
00:59:20,246 --> 00:59:23,749
- Got anything stronger than this, Deputy ?
- No. No, we ain't.
576
00:59:24,250 --> 00:59:25,793
Oh ?
577
00:59:25,876 --> 00:59:31,382
You know, in Thornton, Mississippi,
there's a joy-juice still in every yard.
578
00:59:31,924 --> 00:59:35,678
All you need is just some corn
and sugar and a pot to boil it in.
579
00:59:37,179 --> 00:59:39,723
I was tryin' to fingerprint
this old boy once.
580
00:59:39,807 --> 00:59:42,434
He'd had his hand
in the mash barrel all his life.
581
00:59:42,518 --> 00:59:45,688
There was no skin at all on there.
No prints.
582
00:59:45,771 --> 00:59:49,233
We ain't interested in your
good ol' Mississippi boy stories.
583
00:59:49,316 --> 00:59:51,568
You ain't from here no more.
584
00:59:53,153 --> 00:59:57,950
- Why'd you leave, anyway ?
- I just wanted a change of scenery.
585
01:00:00,702 --> 01:00:03,914
The grits started leavin'
a bad taste in my mouth.
586
01:00:03,997 --> 01:00:07,209
Well, if that's how you feel about it,
Mr FBI Man, ...
587
01:00:07,292 --> 01:00:13,173
...why don't you get back to your commie,
nigger-lovin' bosses up North ?
588
01:00:13,257 --> 01:00:15,884
You must not know my boss, Mr Hoover.
589
01:00:15,968 --> 01:00:19,680
He's not too fond of commies.
He'd be on your side there.
590
01:00:19,763 --> 01:00:23,725
I don't give two shits whose side
your Mr Hoover's on, boy.
591
01:00:23,809 --> 01:00:29,022
All I know is we got 5,000 niggers in this
county who ain't registered to vote yet.
592
01:00:29,106 --> 01:00:31,942
And, as far as I'm concerned,
they never will.
593
01:00:32,025 --> 01:00:38,031
So tell your stiff suits up in Washington,
DC, they ain't gonna change us one bit.
594
01:00:38,615 --> 01:00:42,911
Unless it's over my dead body.
Or a lot of dead niggers.
595
01:00:46,873 --> 01:00:50,001
You'd kill, Frank ?
Is that what you're sayin' ?
596
01:00:50,377 --> 01:00:54,589
I wouldn't give it no more thought
than wringin' a cat's neck.
597
01:00:54,673 --> 01:00:58,343
And there ain't a court in Mississippi
that'd convict me for it.
598
01:00:58,426 --> 01:01:00,512
How about you, Deputy ?
599
01:01:00,595 --> 01:01:04,724
- How are you with wringin' necks, huh ?
- Just keep pushin' me, Hoover boy.
600
01:01:04,808 --> 01:01:07,185
You get this straight, you cornhole fucker.
601
01:01:07,268 --> 01:01:12,524
Tell your queer-ass bosses they'll never
find them civil rightsters down here.
602
01:01:12,607 --> 01:01:16,861
So you might as well pack your bags
and head up North where you belong.
603
01:01:19,072 --> 01:01:21,491
You get this straight, shitkicker.
604
01:01:21,574 --> 01:01:24,786
Don't you go mistakin' me
for some whole other body.
605
01:01:24,869 --> 01:01:27,997
Your brain's in your dick
if you think we'll just fade away.
606
01:01:28,081 --> 01:01:31,250
We're gonna be here
till this thing's finished.
607
01:01:32,710 --> 01:01:35,505
How about you, Deputy ?
608
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:38,633
Is that gun just for show ?
609
01:01:38,716 --> 01:01:42,095
Or do you get to shoot people
once in a while ?
610
01:01:49,268 --> 01:01:52,104
Thanks for the beer.
611
01:01:57,485 --> 01:02:03,991
Ask them if they want to help save this
country from the onslaught of integration.
612
01:02:04,075 --> 01:02:08,746
You know the system : they want to throw
white children and coloured children...
613
01:02:08,829 --> 01:02:11,666
...into the melting pot of integration, ...
614
01:02:11,749 --> 01:02:18,172
...out of which will come a conglomerated,
mulatto, mongrel class of people !
615
01:02:18,255 --> 01:02:21,592
Both races will be destroyed
in such a movement.
616
01:02:21,675 --> 01:02:26,889
I, for one, under God will die
before I'll yield one inch...
617
01:02:26,972 --> 01:02:29,600
...to that kind ofa movement in America.
618
01:02:31,977 --> 01:02:34,063
Do you know the trouble you've caused ?
619
01:02:34,146 --> 01:02:38,901
They've been on the radio all day,
talkin' about FBI intimidation.
620
01:02:38,984 --> 01:02:42,488
We're not thugs, Mr Anderson.
We're gonna do this thing my way.
621
01:02:42,571 --> 01:02:47,409
- I know. Bureau procedure.
- Why were you at the beauty parlour ?
622
01:02:47,493 --> 01:02:51,330
If that was Bureau business, I wanna
know about it. If not, I won't allow it.
623
01:02:51,413 --> 01:02:53,916
- Do you understand me ? !
- Get in here !
624
01:02:56,460 --> 01:03:00,089
You know your problem ? You don't know
when to speak and when to shut up !
625
01:03:00,172 --> 01:03:02,758
That makes you a fool !
626
01:03:02,841 --> 01:03:06,178
Mrs Pell won't say anything
her husband doesn't want her to.
627
01:03:06,261 --> 01:03:08,347
And I'm not gonna choke it out of her !
628
01:03:08,430 --> 01:03:12,100
This can of worms
only opens from the inside.
629
01:03:17,898 --> 01:03:19,983
I know that.
630
01:03:27,324 --> 01:03:29,409
Freedom ! Freedom !
631
01:03:29,493 --> 01:03:34,623
("Try Jesus" by Vesta Williams)
632
01:03:37,334 --> 01:03:39,419
White nigger !
633
01:03:42,380 --> 01:03:44,466
White niggers !
634
01:03:47,761 --> 01:03:50,055
Hurry up ! Hurry up !
635
01:03:50,138 --> 01:03:54,017
Freedom ! Freedom ! Freedom !
636
01:04:02,692 --> 01:04:05,195
20 cents ?
637
01:04:08,531 --> 01:04:12,368
Freedom ! Freedom ! Freedom !
638
01:04:14,370 --> 01:04:17,582
"Bring him"
639
01:04:17,999 --> 01:04:23,338
"Your burdens"
640
01:04:24,839 --> 01:04:30,637
"Seek not his favour"
641
01:04:31,471 --> 01:04:38,770
"Tell... tell him your sorrows"
642
01:04:45,985 --> 01:04:48,738
- Hi.
- Hey, now !
643
01:04:49,697 --> 01:04:54,160
Just passin' by. Just sayin' hello.
You're not out watchin' the parade ?
644
01:04:54,243 --> 01:05:00,124
How come you don't ask me questions ?
Everybody's been talked to 'cept me.
645
01:05:02,668 --> 01:05:06,631
Why don't you send some of them
good-lookin' FBI boys to talk to me ?
646
01:05:07,465 --> 01:05:11,135
Sorry about the intrusion.
I was at the hardware store and...
647
01:05:11,218 --> 01:05:14,096
- Pecan ?
- I'm sick of pecans.
648
01:05:14,180 --> 01:05:17,350
Freedom ! Freedom !
649
01:05:17,433 --> 01:05:20,811
- Are you willing to stand and fight ?
- Yes !
650
01:05:54,803 --> 01:05:57,097
How'd you find out about this ?
651
01:05:58,223 --> 01:06:00,517
Bureau procedure, Mr Ward.
652
01:06:12,654 --> 01:06:14,781
Sheriff Stuckey.
653
01:06:15,324 --> 01:06:17,492
He got his phone call.
654
01:06:20,329 --> 01:06:22,831
Wonder who else was called.
655
01:06:24,249 --> 01:06:26,752
Where you goin', boy ?
656
01:06:26,835 --> 01:06:29,338
Go on. Get outta here.
657
01:06:46,229 --> 01:06:48,315
Here they come.
658
01:06:56,114 --> 01:07:00,160
- Come on. Let's go.
- We'll wait until they go back inside.
659
01:07:01,077 --> 01:07:03,163
Get him !
660
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:09,169
Get him into the goddamn truck !
661
01:07:09,586 --> 01:07:12,380
Get inside, you sons of bitches.
662
01:07:13,757 --> 01:07:16,593
- Let's go !
- Wait until they go back inside !
663
01:07:22,056 --> 01:07:24,517
Come on, Ward. Let's go. Come on !
664
01:07:25,268 --> 01:07:27,145
Go on !
665
01:08:34,587 --> 01:08:36,005
- Turn left !
- How do you know ?
666
01:08:36,088 --> 01:08:38,507
I don't. Just turn left.
667
01:08:41,635 --> 01:08:43,971
There's the truck.
668
01:08:44,054 --> 01:08:46,348
Go up that little road there.
669
01:08:50,019 --> 01:08:52,229
Stop, stop.
670
01:09:26,847 --> 01:09:29,057
What's wrong with these people ?
671
01:09:38,525 --> 01:09:43,780
Mrs Walker, I know this is difficult
for you, but I really need your help.
672
01:09:43,864 --> 01:09:47,534
If you could just persuade
your son to press charges, ...
673
01:09:47,617 --> 01:09:51,121
...then we could pick up
the deputy at least, right away.
674
01:09:51,204 --> 01:09:53,665
He won't talk to no one.
675
01:09:53,748 --> 01:09:57,586
- And it won't do no good anyway.
- I promise you, it will.
676
01:09:57,961 --> 01:10:00,046
Leave him alone.
677
01:10:00,130 --> 01:10:02,424
Maybe then they'll let us alone.
678
01:10:14,978 --> 01:10:21,151
If this is a pattern, I guess at least
we know what happened on June 21st.
679
01:10:21,234 --> 01:10:24,738
Pell stopped the three boys
for speeding at three o'clock.
680
01:10:24,821 --> 01:10:28,032
He held them in jail until
the Klan could get organised.
681
01:10:28,116 --> 01:10:33,121
Then he released 'em at 10.30. By that
time, his buddies were ready and waiting.
682
01:10:33,204 --> 01:10:36,124
No. Pell went with 'em that night.
I'm sure of it.
683
01:10:36,207 --> 01:10:37,709
Do you think he'll crack ?
684
01:10:37,792 --> 01:10:40,837
Down here they say
rattlesnakes don't commit suicide.
685
01:10:50,555 --> 01:10:53,725
Did you release
the three civil rights workers...
686
01:10:53,808 --> 01:10:57,478
...into the hands of the Klan
on the night of June 21st ?
687
01:10:57,562 --> 01:10:58,688
No.
688
01:10:58,771 --> 01:11:01,816
- Are you a member of the Ku Klux Klan ?
- No.
689
01:11:02,358 --> 01:11:06,070
- Have you ever been a member ?
- No.
690
01:11:06,154 --> 01:11:09,240
Are you familiar with
the term Grand Cyclops ?
691
01:11:09,323 --> 01:11:10,992
I've heard of it.
692
01:11:11,075 --> 01:11:14,912
Were you in fact the Grand Cyclops
of the East Mississippi Klavern...
693
01:11:14,996 --> 01:11:18,499
...of the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan
for the past three years ?
694
01:11:18,583 --> 01:11:22,712
Objection. My client's already told you,
he's not even a member of the Klan.
695
01:11:22,795 --> 01:11:27,800
Objection ? This is just an interview, sir.
There's really no need to be so formal.
696
01:11:28,092 --> 01:11:34,432
Well, if this is just an interview, I guess
I don't have to stay here. I got work to do.
697
01:11:36,517 --> 01:11:41,021
- I guess you do too, don't you ?
- Yes, sir. You can be sure that we'll do it.
698
01:11:41,647 --> 01:11:43,732
Good luck.
699
01:11:44,692 --> 01:11:49,446
Y'all get enough to indict me,
you know where to find me.
700
01:11:51,615 --> 01:11:53,450
- How'd it go ?
- Fine. Just fine.
701
01:11:53,534 --> 01:11:56,078
Don't you worry about a goddamn thing.
702
01:11:57,162 --> 01:11:59,164
Are you about to be indicted ?
703
01:11:59,248 --> 01:12:02,209
Does the FBI have evidence
against the sheriff's office ?
704
01:12:02,293 --> 01:12:06,213
- Are you cooperating with them ?
- We're cooperatin'. We have all along.
705
01:12:06,297 --> 01:12:08,257
There's not one iota of proof.
706
01:12:08,340 --> 01:12:12,386
Could you not do that, please ?
Sir, do not do that, please.
707
01:12:13,721 --> 01:12:16,932
You've already been told once !
Get the fuck outta here !
708
01:12:19,309 --> 01:12:22,938
Do we have to tell you 2,000 times ?
Go back where you belong !
709
01:12:23,730 --> 01:12:26,150
Get outta my face !
710
01:12:26,233 --> 01:12:29,361
Get on outta here and leave us alone !
Leave us alone !
711
01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:33,448
Go on home where you belong, boy !
You're gonna get hurt !
712
01:12:35,909 --> 01:12:39,204
Mr Ward, this is gettin' to be
about as much as we can take.
713
01:12:39,288 --> 01:12:42,165
- I cannot register a stronger complaint.
- Not now, sir.
714
01:12:42,249 --> 01:12:47,045
Now, just a minute. I resent your
public pursuit of my sheriff's department.
715
01:12:47,129 --> 01:12:50,799
You have made every effort to
implicate them in these disappearances.
716
01:12:50,882 --> 01:12:55,720
Your slimy innuendoes are not evidence
that they were connected with any crime.
717
01:12:55,804 --> 01:12:58,682
We're trying to get to the truth.
We're frustrated too.
718
01:12:58,765 --> 01:13:02,144
Any jackass can point a finger,
but that ain't evidence.
719
01:13:02,227 --> 01:13:06,398
Us old cotton-choppers are still
stupid enough to believe in democracy.
720
01:13:06,481 --> 01:13:11,111
- We know our rights under the law !
- You know somethin', all right.
721
01:13:11,194 --> 01:13:16,283
- I'd bet a cotton-choppin' dollar on that.
- You're gettin' so far up my nose, ...
722
01:13:16,366 --> 01:13:19,327
...I'm beginnin' to feel
your boots on my chin.
723
01:13:19,411 --> 01:13:22,288
And I'm tellin' you one more time,
Mr Apple Red.
724
01:13:22,372 --> 01:13:27,001
A couple of crazies in bedsheets dancin'
round the countryside scarin' Negroes...
725
01:13:27,085 --> 01:13:30,088
...is not the fault of the entire
state of Mississippi !
726
01:13:30,171 --> 01:13:35,802
There are three dead kids and a lot of
scared people because of your sheriff.
727
01:13:35,885 --> 01:13:41,641
- So get used to havin' us around.
- Get used to my boots on your chin too.
728
01:13:41,724 --> 01:13:43,810
And you people better back off.
729
01:13:45,144 --> 01:13:49,899
Goddamn FBI. Who do they think they are,
comin' to my part of the country...
730
01:13:49,983 --> 01:13:53,403
- Do you have a statement, Mr Mayor ?
- Goddamn right I have.
731
01:13:53,486 --> 01:13:56,280
For a moment there, Mr Anderson, ...
732
01:13:56,364 --> 01:13:59,492
...it sounded like we were
both on the same side.
733
01:14:27,270 --> 01:14:29,897
- Are you all right, honey ?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
734
01:14:29,981 --> 01:14:33,234
- Let me know if you need anything.
- Thanks. I will.
735
01:15:57,818 --> 01:15:59,486
Momma ! Come quick !
736
01:16:16,044 --> 01:16:19,172
There's no sign of him, sir.
He's long gone.
737
01:16:19,256 --> 01:16:23,051
His mother lives across the street.
She won't even answer the door.
738
01:16:23,134 --> 01:16:26,721
I want the whole area covered.
Someone must have seen something.
739
01:16:26,805 --> 01:16:29,057
- They won't talk to us.
- Get going, Mr Bird.
740
01:16:29,140 --> 01:16:31,935
If they won't talk to us, shake it out of 'em.
741
01:16:35,230 --> 01:16:37,732
Let's go. Every house. Come on.
742
01:16:44,823 --> 01:16:46,574
What ?
743
01:16:46,658 --> 01:16:52,372
All these white guys chasin' around with
their notebooks will get you nowhere.
744
01:16:52,455 --> 01:16:55,166
OK. What would you do ?
745
01:17:00,421 --> 01:17:02,924
It's OK to be afraid.
746
01:17:10,723 --> 01:17:14,894
Go on, Willie. Tell 'em what you saw.
747
01:17:48,761 --> 01:17:51,597
The defendants will rise.
748
01:17:54,475 --> 01:17:57,603
In this country a man's home is his castle.
749
01:17:58,896 --> 01:18:03,442
That is one of the principles
by which this community survives.
750
01:18:03,526 --> 01:18:06,654
You men have done violence
to that principle.
751
01:18:06,737 --> 01:18:09,823
But I want you to know
that the court understands...
752
01:18:09,907 --> 01:18:14,411
...that the crimes you have committed
have been, to some extent at least, ...
753
01:18:14,495 --> 01:18:18,290
...brought about by... outside influences.
754
01:18:27,174 --> 01:18:30,302
Outsiders have come
into Jessup County...
755
01:18:30,385 --> 01:18:34,723
...and they've been
people of low morality, ...
756
01:18:34,807 --> 01:18:37,392
...and unhygienic.
757
01:18:37,726 --> 01:18:41,063
And their presence here
has provoked a lot of people.
758
01:18:43,774 --> 01:18:45,943
So the court understands, ...
759
01:18:46,026 --> 01:18:49,696
...without condoning them, mind you, ...
760
01:18:49,780 --> 01:18:52,908
...that the crimes to which
you men have pled guilty...
761
01:18:52,991 --> 01:18:58,497
...were, to some extent at least,
provoked by these outside influences.
762
01:19:00,999 --> 01:19:05,420
So, with all this,
I'm gonna make your punishment light.
763
01:19:06,421 --> 01:19:11,009
I'm gonna sentence you each
to five years' imprisonment.
764
01:19:14,095 --> 01:19:16,640
But I'm gonna suspend these sentences.
765
01:19:51,341 --> 01:19:53,885
You can't go in there, sir.
766
01:19:53,968 --> 01:19:56,054
FBI. Let us through.
767
01:19:56,137 --> 01:19:58,556
I'm sorry, sir. You can't go in there.
768
01:20:03,978 --> 01:20:06,064
Sheriff ?
769
01:20:09,275 --> 01:20:11,694
Y'all really started somethin' this time.
770
01:20:11,778 --> 01:20:14,322
Move these cars.
I wanna go in and talk to them.
771
01:20:14,405 --> 01:20:17,867
- You've gone as far as you're gonna go.
- We can handle this.
772
01:20:17,950 --> 01:20:20,870
Just some crazy coloureds
tearin' up their own assholes.
773
01:20:20,953 --> 01:20:23,039
Local problem.
774
01:20:38,971 --> 01:20:43,434
Look at those flames, Mr Ward. That's
why they sent you down here, wasn't it ?
775
01:20:44,060 --> 01:20:47,480
It would've happened anyway
and you know it.
776
01:20:48,689 --> 01:20:52,276
If I was a Negro,
I'd probably think the same way they do.
777
01:20:52,735 --> 01:20:56,906
If you were a Negro,
nobody'd give a damn what you thought.
778
01:21:53,837 --> 01:21:58,425
Aaron ! Take your momma, grandmomma
and the children out the back door.
779
01:21:58,508 --> 01:22:02,888
When you hit the road, keep goin'.
You understand ? Keep goin', son.
780
01:22:04,514 --> 01:22:06,892
Nathan ! Come on, Nathan. Get up !
781
01:22:06,975 --> 01:22:10,103
Get up, Nathan, now ! Come on !
Get out of the bed !
782
01:22:10,187 --> 01:22:14,691
- What's happening ?
- Momma ! Come on, Momma.
783
01:22:17,360 --> 01:22:19,446
Come on, y'all.
784
01:22:20,238 --> 01:22:22,991
Come on, Grandma. Let's go !
785
01:22:23,074 --> 01:22:26,203

Who's there ? lf you're in there,
come on out ! You hear ?
788
01:22:44,971 --> 01:22:47,182

Everything's OK, Papa.
796
01:23:54,498 --> 01:23:56,584
Momma and the girls are fine.
797
01:23:56,667 --> 01:24:00,171
They just cracked your head some.
You just keep on breathin'.
798
01:24:00,254 --> 01:24:02,423
Don't you go dyin' on me now.
799
01:24:02,631 --> 01:24:04,717
You hear me ?
800
01:24:05,968 --> 01:24:07,970
You gonna be just fine.
801
01:24:34,830 --> 01:24:40,002
You know, cows won't run away. No one
knows why. They're just stupid, I guess.
802
01:24:40,085 --> 01:24:45,716
They just stand there until
their bellies swell up and they pop.
803
01:24:45,799 --> 01:24:48,594
They have relatives in Detroit.
804
01:24:49,386 --> 01:24:52,931
- Are they gonna go ?
- I didn't give 'em any choice.
805
01:24:54,474 --> 01:24:57,603
At least we know who did this.
806
01:24:57,686 --> 01:25:00,522
- We did.
- Well, don't fret. It's progress.
807
01:25:00,606 --> 01:25:05,027
20 years ago they'd have
strung 'em up for stealin' a water melon.
808
01:25:05,110 --> 01:25:08,530
I don't understand you, Mr Anderson.
Not at all.
809
01:25:09,948 --> 01:25:12,409
Let's get somethin' straight, all right ?
810
01:25:12,492 --> 01:25:16,621
This thing was fucked up the moment
we turned it into a show for the newsmen.
811
01:25:16,705 --> 01:25:19,332
The moment those three kids
disappeared, it was news.
812
01:25:19,416 --> 01:25:23,753
The moment the three civil rights
workers disappeared, it was news.
813
01:25:23,837 --> 01:25:27,257
To me they're just kids.
They're still missin'.
814
01:25:27,340 --> 01:25:31,887
What's missing... is the 50 minutes
Pell said he was with his wife.
815
01:25:35,724 --> 01:25:37,809
OK.
816
01:25:53,491 --> 01:25:56,369
I love Mississippi.
817
01:26:07,171 --> 01:26:08,965
They...
818
01:26:09,048 --> 01:26:11,301
They hate Mississippi.
819
01:26:12,135 --> 01:26:15,930
They hate us because
we present a shining example...
820
01:26:16,014 --> 01:26:19,267
...of successful segregation.
821
01:26:19,350 --> 01:26:23,896
These Northern students,
with their atheist, communist bosses, ...
822
01:26:23,980 --> 01:26:28,151
...that have come into our community
this summer with the wish to destroy it, ...
823
01:26:28,234 --> 01:26:31,863
...this week have taken a terrible blow.
824
01:26:32,697 --> 01:26:36,409
This week their cause has been crippled.
825
01:26:36,492 --> 01:26:41,289
This week all of these federal policemen
you see out here pryin' into our lives, ...
826
01:26:41,372 --> 01:26:43,332
...violatin' our civil liberties, ...
827
01:26:43,416 --> 01:26:46,252
...have learned that they are
powerless against us...
828
01:26:46,335 --> 01:26:51,882
...if every single Anglo-Saxon
Christian one of us stands together !
829
01:26:57,221 --> 01:26:58,431
This week...
830
01:26:59,932 --> 01:27:02,309
- Ward ?
- We have company, sir.
831
01:27:03,477 --> 01:27:05,813
Why are you here ?
This is a political meeting.
832
01:27:05,896 --> 01:27:10,151
- Doesn't smell that way to me, Deputy.
- It's a political meeting, Hoover boy.
833
01:27:10,234 --> 01:27:15,823
Oh, it looks like a political meeting
but smells more like Klan to me, ...
834
01:27:15,906 --> 01:27:19,201
...with or without the Halloween costumes.
835
01:27:19,952 --> 01:27:21,662
Gentlemen.
836
01:27:21,745 --> 01:27:25,374
In the courts of Mississippi,
they have been reminded...
837
01:27:25,457 --> 01:27:28,711
...that they cannot by force
turn our communities...
838
01:27:28,794 --> 01:27:31,297
...into replicas of their communities.
839
01:27:31,380 --> 01:27:35,843
Communities in which Negroes run riot,
unrestrained and unpunished, ...
840
01:27:35,926 --> 01:27:40,264
...as they do this summer in the streets
of Harlem, or in the streets of Oakland, ...
841
01:27:40,347 --> 01:27:42,516
...or in the streets of Chicago !
842
01:29:03,763 --> 01:29:06,057
Can I come in ?
843
01:29:14,524 --> 01:29:16,693
It's not good for you to be here.
844
01:29:16,776 --> 01:29:19,487
- Why ?
- It's ugly.
845
01:29:20,405 --> 01:29:22,699
This whole thing is so ugly.
846
01:29:23,741 --> 01:29:27,495
Have you any idea what it's like
to live with all this ?
847
01:29:28,371 --> 01:29:32,959
People look at us...
and only see bigots and racists.
848
01:29:35,211 --> 01:29:38,339
Hatred isn't something you're born with.
849
01:29:38,423 --> 01:29:40,508
It gets taught.
850
01:29:42,260 --> 01:29:46,222
At school they said segregation
is what it said in the Bible.
851
01:29:47,598 --> 01:29:51,477
Genesis 9, verse 27.
852
01:29:54,647 --> 01:29:59,568
At seven years of age, you get
told it enough times, you believe it.
853
01:30:01,570 --> 01:30:03,698
You believe the hatred.
854
01:30:04,740 --> 01:30:08,452
You live it. You breathe it.
855
01:30:10,579 --> 01:30:12,665
You marry it.
856
01:30:43,070 --> 01:30:45,656
My husband drove
one of the cars that night.
857
01:30:45,739 --> 01:30:49,159
- Shh.
- That's what you wanna hear, isn't it ?
858
01:30:51,078 --> 01:30:56,208
The bodies are buried
on the Roberts farm, in an earthen dam.
859
01:31:14,726 --> 01:31:16,395
Sir !
860
01:31:29,116 --> 01:31:31,451
Take a break, Mr Bird.
861
01:31:31,535 --> 01:31:34,246
Put some handkerchiefs around your face.
862
01:31:47,550 --> 01:31:49,636
Bring that here.
863
01:32:04,067 --> 01:32:07,570
The bodies of the three civil rights
workers were found today...
864
01:32:07,654 --> 01:32:10,031
...at an undisclosed grave.
865
01:32:11,449 --> 01:32:15,995
Neither the FBI nor the sheriff's
department will comment on the case.
866
01:32:16,079 --> 01:32:18,831
The bodies were brought
to Jessup County Hospital.
867
01:32:18,915 --> 01:32:21,417
Officials here also refused comment.
868
01:32:21,501 --> 01:32:25,838
There is speculation that an autopsy
will be performed later tonight.
869
01:32:27,966 --> 01:32:30,843
OK, keep it open. We're comin' through.
870
01:32:30,927 --> 01:32:33,596
Come on, open it up.
871
01:32:34,722 --> 01:32:36,641
Hold it back.
872
01:32:56,536 --> 01:32:59,413
Clinton,
you got problems at home to tend to.
873
01:32:59,497 --> 01:33:01,040
What do you mean ?
874
01:33:01,123 --> 01:33:04,794
I mean pull your head
out of your ass and get home !
875
01:33:04,877 --> 01:33:09,382
"I, Vincent Thompson, am the
cheddar-cheese champion of the world."
876
01:33:10,591 --> 01:33:16,013
"In international competition with 42 other
entries, my cheddar won first prize...
877
01:33:16,097 --> 01:33:19,892
...based on flavour, texture,
appearance and colour."
878
01:33:24,814 --> 01:33:28,484
Hey, Clinton.
I didn't expect you home so early.
879
01:33:29,735 --> 01:33:31,904
Hi, Frank.
880
01:33:42,539 --> 01:33:44,833
No, don't. I'm sorry.
881
01:33:58,597 --> 01:34:00,682
Sir.
882
01:34:02,768 --> 01:34:04,853
Say again ?
883
01:34:06,188 --> 01:34:08,273
I'll be right there.
884
01:34:13,070 --> 01:34:15,405
- Mr Bird.
- Yes, sir ?
885
01:34:15,489 --> 01:34:17,574
Get five men and meet me outside.
886
01:34:19,952 --> 01:34:23,080
- Where's Anderson ?
- He's at the motel, sir.
887
01:34:27,751 --> 01:34:31,838
You two take the front door. If anyone
tries to get past you, break 'em down.
888
01:34:31,922 --> 01:34:34,883
You two take the door on the corridor.
Mr Bird ?
889
01:34:36,593 --> 01:34:40,597
OK. Go get Anderson. Bring him here.
890
01:34:40,680 --> 01:34:45,477
Don't tell him why.
Don't tell him anything. Just get him here.
891
01:35:16,800 --> 01:35:19,010
Mr Anderson. Stop !
892
01:35:19,093 --> 01:35:20,762
- Mr Anderson !
- Go to hell.
893
01:35:20,845 --> 01:35:24,390
I'm telling you to stop and
I mean it. We're not killers.
894
01:35:24,474 --> 01:35:28,561
- It's the difference between them and us.
- No, between them and you !
895
01:35:28,645 --> 01:35:31,022
- You're no more like them than I am.
- Wrong.
896
01:35:31,105 --> 01:35:34,692
What do you care what I do to a bastard
hidin' behind a sheriff's badge ?
897
01:35:34,776 --> 01:35:37,904
- You have the whole world to change !
- And I'm changin' it.
898
01:35:37,987 --> 01:35:41,574
- You're as arrogant as you are stupid !
- You're changin' it too.
899
01:35:41,657 --> 01:35:43,659
I'll make some changes right now !
900
01:35:43,743 --> 01:35:48,122
Don't mess this up just because
you like foolin' around with witnesses.
901
01:35:57,965 --> 01:36:00,176
A gun don't mean shit unless you use it.
902
01:36:00,259 --> 01:36:04,388
- I'll kill you now if you don't listen to me.
- Fuck you.
903
01:36:04,472 --> 01:36:06,557
Let me go. Let me go.
904
01:36:08,893 --> 01:36:13,314
- We'll go after all of 'em, together.
- You wouldn't know how !
905
01:36:13,397 --> 01:36:16,025
- You'll teach me.
- You don't have the guts.
906
01:36:16,108 --> 01:36:19,320
Not only do I have the guts,
I have the authority.
907
01:36:19,403 --> 01:36:21,489
What is that supposed to mean ?
908
01:36:21,572 --> 01:36:26,744
New rules. We nail 'em any way we can.
Even your way.
909
01:36:26,827 --> 01:36:29,747
Is this you talkin' or
some guy pullin' your strings ?
910
01:36:29,830 --> 01:36:31,874
Both.
911
01:36:31,957 --> 01:36:34,043
- We do it my way.
- Your way.
912
01:36:34,168 --> 01:36:36,837
- With my people !
- Whatever it takes.
913
01:36:38,714 --> 01:36:40,591
OK.
914
01:36:46,639 --> 01:36:48,724
Gimme a minute.
915
01:36:56,398 --> 01:36:59,360
- You think he would've shot me ?
- Oh, yes, sir.
916
01:37:00,569 --> 01:37:03,113
He's a ballsy little bastard, isn't he ?
917
01:37:11,163 --> 01:37:13,707
They want me to say "Let us not forget...
918
01:37:13,790 --> 01:37:18,837
...that two white boys also died
helping Negroes help themselves."
919
01:37:21,965 --> 01:37:27,346
They want me to say "We mourn with
the mothers of these two white boys."
920
01:37:30,515 --> 01:37:34,895
But the state of Mississippi
won't even allow these white boys...
921
01:37:34,978 --> 01:37:38,523
...to be buried in the same
cemetery as this Negro boy.
922
01:37:41,276 --> 01:37:45,572
I say I have no more love to give.
923
01:37:45,655 --> 01:37:48,742
I have only angerin my heart today, ...
924
01:37:48,825 --> 01:37:52,412
...and I want you to be angry with me !
925
01:37:52,495 --> 01:37:55,040
Now, I am sick and I am tired, ...
926
01:37:55,123 --> 01:37:58,376
...and I want you to be
sick and tired with me !
927
01:37:58,460 --> 01:38:02,714
I... I... I am sick and tired
of going to the funerals...
928
01:38:02,797 --> 01:38:06,551
...of black men who have been
murdered by white men !
929
01:38:06,635 --> 01:38:10,638
I... I am sick and tired
of the people of this country...
930
01:38:10,722 --> 01:38:14,768
...who continue to allow
these things to happen !
931
01:38:14,851 --> 01:38:19,522
What is an "inalienable right"
if you are a Negro ?
932
01:38:19,606 --> 01:38:23,026
What does it mean,
"equal treatment under the law" ?
933
01:38:23,109 --> 01:38:27,739
What does it mean,
"Liberty and justice for all" ?
934
01:38:28,656 --> 01:38:31,034
Now I say to these people :
935
01:38:31,117 --> 01:38:36,998
Look at the face ofthis young man
and you will see the face of a black man.
936
01:38:37,081 --> 01:38:41,294
But, if you look at the bloodshed, it is red.
It is like yours !
937
01:38:41,377 --> 01:38:43,796
It is just like yours !
938
01:40:14,178 --> 01:40:15,721
You...
939
01:40:18,348 --> 01:40:20,434
I'm gonna tell you a story.
940
01:40:22,269 --> 01:40:27,566
A young kid named Homer Wilkes
lives about 30 miles north of here.
941
01:40:27,649 --> 01:40:33,238
He'd just taken his girlfriend home
and was walkin' back along the road...
942
01:40:33,322 --> 01:40:35,657
...when a car pulled up.
943
01:40:35,741 --> 01:40:38,493
Three white boys took him for a ride.
944
01:40:42,539 --> 01:40:44,207
Now...
945
01:40:45,250 --> 01:40:47,961
...he hadn't done anything, ...
946
01:40:49,671 --> 01:40:51,756
...except...
947
01:40:52,674 --> 01:40:54,759
...be a Negro.
948
01:40:57,512 --> 01:40:59,806
And they took him to a shack.
949
01:41:00,432 --> 01:41:03,143
A shack like... Iike this one.
950
01:41:04,102 --> 01:41:07,188
And they took out a razor blade, ...
951
01:41:07,272 --> 01:41:11,067
...a regular old razor blade, like this one, ...
952
01:41:13,361 --> 01:41:16,489
...and they pulled down his pants...
953
01:41:19,284 --> 01:41:21,995
...and they spread his legs...
954
01:41:23,455 --> 01:41:26,416
...and they sliced off his scrotum.
955
01:41:29,377 --> 01:41:31,462
Put it in a coffee cup.
956
01:41:36,426 --> 01:41:42,348
And do you know how much you bleed
when somebody cuts off your balls ?
957
01:41:42,432 --> 01:41:44,517
Huh ? !
958
01:41:47,186 --> 01:41:52,859
When they found Homer, he looked like
he'd been dipped in blood up to his waist.
959
01:41:52,942 --> 01:41:56,362
He was barely alive when
they got him to the hospital.
960
01:41:56,446 --> 01:41:58,990
He can hardly walk now.
961
01:42:09,083 --> 01:42:11,252
Mayor, we know you know...
962
01:42:11,335 --> 01:42:15,506
...who was there when those three
civil rights boys was murdered.
963
01:42:15,590 --> 01:42:18,134
We know you know
who pulled the trigger.
964
01:42:24,181 --> 01:42:26,684
Is there somethin' you wanna say to me ?
965
01:42:33,315 --> 01:42:35,401
OK !
966
01:42:40,030 --> 01:42:43,909
- Is he with the Bureau ?
- Yeah. He's kind of a specialist.
967
01:42:43,993 --> 01:42:47,329
- You're sure the mayor won't talk ?
- No, they'd kill him !
968
01:42:47,413 --> 01:42:50,082
All right. What do you have ?
969
01:42:50,165 --> 01:42:54,044
There were three cars and seven men.
Pell and Bailey did the killing.
970
01:42:54,128 --> 01:42:57,214
- Sheriff Stuckey ?
- He was too smart to be there.
971
01:42:57,298 --> 01:42:59,967
- So Pell pulled the trigger for him.
- And Townley ?
972
01:43:00,050 --> 01:43:04,013
It was his idea. Grand Dragons,
they don't get their hands dirty.
973
01:43:04,096 --> 01:43:07,641
The whole thing, huh ? Bullet by bullet.
974
01:43:09,101 --> 01:43:15,691
I don't suppose you're interested in words
like "coercion" or "hearsay" or "duress".
975
01:43:15,774 --> 01:43:18,068
This is no good in court.
976
01:43:18,152 --> 01:43:22,030
We're not in court, Mr Ward.
We'll never get 'em on murder anyway.
977
01:43:22,114 --> 01:43:25,993
That's a state charge.
These hayseeds will never prosecute.
978
01:43:26,076 --> 01:43:29,288
- I know that !
- We've got to get 'em in federal court !
979
01:43:29,371 --> 01:43:33,500
- Violation of civil rights !
- Remember whose rights you're violatin' !
980
01:43:33,584 --> 01:43:37,504
- Don't put me on your perch, Mr Ward !
- Don't drag me into your gutter !
981
01:43:37,587 --> 01:43:40,590
These people crawled out of a sewer,
Mr Ward !
982
01:43:40,674 --> 01:43:43,385
And maybe the gutter's
where we should be !
983
01:43:49,099 --> 01:43:51,184
Thank you.
984
01:44:14,749 --> 01:44:16,835
This better be important.
985
01:44:25,301 --> 01:44:27,804
Who the hell called this meeting ?
986
01:44:30,432 --> 01:44:33,726
- We thought you did.
- Of this group ? Are you stupid ?
987
01:44:34,310 --> 01:44:36,521
You didn't call this ? Shit.
988
01:44:36,604 --> 01:44:39,774
- If you didn't call this, who the fuck did ?
- Shut up.
989
01:44:39,858 --> 01:44:44,696
Is this some kind of bullshit setup ?
Ray, are you sure you didn't call this ?
990
01:44:44,779 --> 01:44:49,075
'Cause I got a note from my wife
and it said it was from you and Clinton.
991
01:44:49,158 --> 01:44:51,536
Lester, shut up !
992
01:44:53,204 --> 01:44:57,542
Now,
we're all gonna walk straight outta here...
993
01:44:57,625 --> 01:44:59,711
...and say nothing.
994
01:45:00,044 --> 01:45:02,130
That means nothin', Lester.
995
01:45:02,213 --> 01:45:05,133
- First one who opens his mouth is dead.
- Shut up.
996
01:45:06,259 --> 01:45:08,219
Hey, Clinton.
997
01:45:11,973 --> 01:45:13,015
Clinton.
998
01:45:17,144 --> 01:45:21,274
Looks like the rattlesnakes
are startin' to commit suicide.
999
01:45:48,759 --> 01:45:50,845
Hi, Lester.
1000
01:45:55,766 --> 01:45:58,811
We'll give you that ride home.
1001
01:45:59,395 --> 01:46:01,188
What ?
1002
01:46:01,272 --> 01:46:05,234
Well, I know you said 4.30
but we're runnin' a little late, so...
1003
01:46:05,317 --> 01:46:08,028
- I'll meet you in the car.
- You're cracked.
1004
01:46:10,155 --> 01:46:12,241
Do you have change of a 20 ?
1005
01:46:13,283 --> 01:46:15,369
Sure.
1006
01:46:20,541 --> 01:46:22,543
Get in the car, Lester.
1007
01:46:22,626 --> 01:46:26,672
Or you'll have a hard time pickin'
your nose once I've closed this drawer.
1008
01:46:30,509 --> 01:46:34,972
Lester, you could make it a lot easier on
yourself by goin' on the record right now.
1009
01:46:35,055 --> 01:46:40,185
I ain't got nothin' to say.
You barkin' up the wrong tree, mister.
1010
01:46:41,228 --> 01:46:45,065
Lester, I gotta tell you somethin'.
We got you cold.
1011
01:46:45,148 --> 01:46:48,026
Your buddies have already talked.
1012
01:46:48,777 --> 01:46:50,862
You're lyin'.
1013
01:46:55,617 --> 01:47:01,665
You're in a lot of trouble. We know you
drove the second vehicle, the green truck.
1014
01:47:01,748 --> 01:47:05,377
And your buddy says...
Refresh my memory here, Mr Bird.
1015
01:47:05,460 --> 01:47:09,130
"Lester Cowens kicked the Negro
twice in the face and then shot him."
1016
01:47:09,214 --> 01:47:12,592
- That's a goddamn lie.
- No, it's true. What else, Mr Bird ?
1017
01:47:12,676 --> 01:47:17,722
Lester Cowens said "They only left me
a nigger, but at least I shot me a nigger."
1018
01:47:20,183 --> 01:47:24,354
- I didn't kill him. I shot him in the ass.
- We know that.
1019
01:47:24,980 --> 01:47:29,442
He was already dead by the time you shot
him. But your buddy sees it differently.
1020
01:47:29,526 --> 01:47:34,406
Your buddy tells it that you killed the kid.
You either go on the record right now...
1021
01:47:34,489 --> 01:47:39,077
...or it's gonna be your ass
we're talkin' about, not just a black kid's !
1022
01:47:52,674 --> 01:47:56,511
Think about it, Lester.
Come on out of there.
1023
01:47:58,388 --> 01:48:00,473
Come on out.
1024
01:48:43,683 --> 01:48:45,768
This is tricky.
1025
01:48:46,644 --> 01:48:49,355
They make it look so easy, don't they ?
1026
01:48:51,315 --> 01:48:53,901
I got a question for you, Clinton.
1027
01:48:54,985 --> 01:48:58,113
You don't mind if I call you Clinton,
do you ?
1028
01:48:58,197 --> 01:49:00,699
I feel like I know you so well.
1029
01:49:03,118 --> 01:49:06,664
The way we have it,
on the night of the murders...
1030
01:49:06,747 --> 01:49:10,459
...you made a short speech as the
bulldozer buried the kids in the dam.
1031
01:49:10,918 --> 01:49:12,753
How does Lester tell it ?
1032
01:49:12,836 --> 01:49:17,966
"Mississippi will be proud of you.
You've struck a blow for the white man."
1033
01:49:18,050 --> 01:49:21,220
Is that what you said, Clinton ? Hm ?
1034
01:49:21,637 --> 01:49:24,181
Is that what you said ?
1035
01:49:24,264 --> 01:49:26,141
It must've been you...
1036
01:49:26,225 --> 01:49:30,521
...because Clayton Townley and
Ray Stuckey were too smart to be there.
1037
01:49:31,647 --> 01:49:36,485
And you was too stupid to think
anybody'd remember what you said.
1038
01:49:36,568 --> 01:49:38,862
But old Lester, he got a good memory.
1039
01:49:43,575 --> 01:49:47,245
I'm sorry.
I haven't done this for a long time.
1040
01:49:47,746 --> 01:49:52,709
Did you make a speech the night that
you beat up your wife, Clinton ? Huh ?
1041
01:49:53,126 --> 01:49:55,295
Did ya ?
1042
01:49:55,379 --> 01:49:58,548
Did you strike a blow
for the white man that night ?
1043
01:50:03,095 --> 01:50:05,889
You got a stupid smile.
You know that, Pell ?
1044
01:50:05,972 --> 01:50:09,059
Can you see it ? Huh ? Good !
1045
01:50:09,935 --> 01:50:14,606
Did you smile when the bulldozer
ran over the black kid's body ? Did ya ? !
1046
01:50:18,818 --> 01:50:22,364
Did you smile when the bodies
were covered over ? Did ya ? !
1047
01:50:22,530 --> 01:50:25,367
Get up here. Come on. Get up !
1048
01:50:25,450 --> 01:50:28,620
Did you smile that same stupid smile,
huh ? !
1049
01:50:28,703 --> 01:50:30,622
Did ya ? ! You...
1050
01:50:35,543 --> 01:50:39,380
Did ya smile, Pell ? Did ya smile ? !
1051
01:50:39,464 --> 01:50:41,966
Huh ? ! Did ya ? !
1052
01:50:47,305 --> 01:50:49,682
Make no mistake about it, Deputy.
1053
01:50:49,766 --> 01:50:56,022
I'll cut your fuckin' head off and not give
a shit how it reads in the report sheet.
1054
01:51:18,127 --> 01:51:20,213
One more bite. One more bite.
1055
01:51:21,339 --> 01:51:23,841
One more bite, darlin'. One more bite.
1056
01:51:40,858 --> 01:51:44,820
- Shit, Lester ! What the fuck is goin' on ? !
- Shut up !
1057
01:51:44,904 --> 01:51:48,741
Get in the bedroom and lock the door !
And stay away from the windows !
1058
01:52:00,002 --> 01:52:01,879
Shit.
1059
01:53:06,068 --> 01:53:08,612
Please. Please ! I didn't say a thing !
1060
01:53:08,695 --> 01:53:12,824
I swear ! It's a setup ! I didn't say nothin' !
I didn't say nothin' !
1061
01:53:13,867 --> 01:53:18,538
Nothin' ! I didn't say nothin' !
I didn't say nothin' !
1062
01:53:26,004 --> 01:53:28,465
I didn't say nothin' !
1063
01:53:48,485 --> 01:53:51,821
You're lucky we've been
watchin' your ass, Lester.
1064
01:53:54,365 --> 01:54:00,121
If you go on the record, Mr Cowens,
we'll give you protection. If not...
1065
01:54:00,205 --> 01:54:03,666
If not, they're gonna kill you anyway.
1066
01:54:04,042 --> 01:54:07,253
Oh. You need a toilet, Lester.
1067
01:54:32,403 --> 01:54:34,488
We really had him goin', huh ?
1068
01:55:18,866 --> 01:55:21,493
We'll take care of the check, Mr Swilley.
1069
01:55:45,934 --> 01:55:48,937
Well, I suppose I'll... be back for supper.
1070
01:55:58,447 --> 01:56:00,949
Button up, Wesley.
1071
01:57:16,274 --> 01:57:18,735
Why did he do it ?
1072
01:57:18,818 --> 01:57:22,989
He wasn't even in on it. Wasn't even Klan.
1073
01:57:24,115 --> 01:57:26,409
Mr Bird, he was guilty.
1074
01:57:27,326 --> 01:57:32,415
Anyone's guilty who watches this happen
and pretends it isn't.
1075
01:57:32,498 --> 01:57:35,668
No. He was guilty all right.
1076
01:57:36,419 --> 01:57:39,922
Just as guilty as the fanatics
who pulled the trigger.
1077
01:57:42,049 --> 01:57:43,259
Maybe we all are.
1078
01:58:37,813 --> 01:58:39,898
Hello !
1079
01:58:40,941 --> 01:58:43,068
Yeah.
1080
01:58:48,991 --> 01:58:53,620
I just missed you at the hospital.
They said you'd gone home.
1081
01:58:54,496 --> 01:58:57,124
What's left of it.
1082
01:58:58,041 --> 01:59:01,169
- I'm real sorry.
- So am I.
1083
01:59:02,588 --> 01:59:05,716
- What are you gonna do ?
- I don't know.
1084
01:59:08,427 --> 01:59:11,847
- Where will you go ?
- I'm not goin' anywhere. I'm stayin'.
1085
01:59:11,930 --> 01:59:14,516
This is my home. Born here.
1086
01:59:16,059 --> 01:59:18,145
Probably die here.
1087
01:59:21,648 --> 01:59:25,777
If I wanted to leave,
I would've done it a long time ago.
1088
01:59:25,861 --> 01:59:28,155
Things'll work out.
1089
01:59:28,238 --> 01:59:32,409
There's enough good people around here
know what I did was right.
1090
01:59:32,492 --> 01:59:36,663
And enough ladies
like the way I fix their hair.
1091
01:59:51,469 --> 01:59:53,263
Hey.
1092
01:59:54,597 --> 01:59:57,183
If you're ever in Des Moines, ...
1093
01:59:57,267 --> 01:59:59,352
...don't send me a postcard.
1094
02:00:00,019 --> 02:00:02,105
OK.

- "Let him be your"
- "Your guide"

"Whoo-oo-oo"
1114
02:01:36,532 --> 02:01:39,743
"He's able"
1115
02:01:39,827 --> 02:01:42,538
"He could carry your load"
1116
02:01:42,621 --> 02:01:49,294
"And he could see way down the road"
1117
02:01:49,378 --> 02:01:52,422
"Walk on"
1118
02:01:54,633 --> 02:01:56,718
You wanna drive, Rupert ?
1119
02:01:59,263 --> 02:02:01,348
Yeah.
