Tonnage rate?

7
00:03:35,667 --> 00:03:38,303
They brung it down to 90 cent a ton.

8
00:03:38,904 --> 00:03:39,504
Down!?

9
00:03:40,105 --> 00:03:42,573
Them dagos are holding fast in #3.

10
00:03:42,674 --> 00:03:45,375
He says, "Take it or leave it."

11
00:03:47,876 --> 00:03:49,746
Sephus, what we gonna do?

12
00:04:01,593 --> 00:04:05,430
Hit were 19 and 20 in the southwest field

13
00:04:05,451 --> 00:04:06,798
and things was tough.

14
00:04:07,499 --> 00:04:10,734
The miners was trying to bring the union to West Virginia

15
00:04:10,735 --> 00:04:15,138
and the coal operators and their
gun thugs was set on keeping 'em out.

16
00:04:43,701 --> 00:04:47,405
Them was hand loadin' days,
they paid you by the ton and they didn't

17
00:04:47,456 --> 00:04:50,873
care no more for a man than they done for a draft mule.

18
00:04:51,176 --> 00:04:53,845
Them was hard people, your coalminers then.

19
00:04:53,866 --> 00:04:56,313
They wudn't nobody you wanted to cross.

20
00:05:43,261 --> 00:05:46,831
So push come to shove and
pretty soon we had us a war down there

21
00:05:46,858 --> 00:05:48,398
in Mingo County,

22
00:05:48,499 --> 00:05:50,968
which in them days was known as 'bloody Mingo'.

23
00:05:51,773 --> 00:05:55,205
And that's where it all came to a head, there on Tug Fork,

24
00:05:55,206 --> 00:05:57,374
in the town of Matewan.

25
00:06:07,485 --> 00:06:09,553
We done it Mama, we're gonna have the union!

26
00:06:24,669 --> 00:06:28,405
- Just gotta stop for a little repairs.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

27
00:06:37,687 --> 00:06:42,555
- They shifted Italians in, right off the boat,
so they're still bring coal outa there.

28
00:06:42,687 --> 00:06:45,555
I'd sure hate to get a whiff of that mine.

29
00:06:46,991 --> 00:06:48,992
What the hell we stopping for?

30
00:07:03,674 --> 00:07:06,243
Step down gentleman, this here'll be your new home.

31
00:07:31,569 --> 00:07:33,604
How come we ain't getting off in town?

32
00:07:34,105 --> 00:07:35,140
- Just get in line.

33
00:08:19,117 --> 00:08:21,384
I'n gonna kill him!, kill him!

34
00:08:28,159 --> 00:08:30,427
Get on the train! Get on!

35
00:08:42,140 --> 00:08:43,974
C'mon, Bill!

36
00:08:46,077 --> 00:08:48,678
Come on! Come on, Bill!

37
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,180
Gimme your hand, man.

38
00:08:54,852 --> 00:08:55,852
- Git out of here!

39
00:09:03,995 --> 00:09:07,097
When do we get to Matewan?
- You don't want to go there mister,

40
00:09:07,128 --> 00:09:08,666
ain't nothing but crazy people.

41
00:09:34,759 --> 00:09:35,459
Hi

42
00:09:37,295 --> 00:09:38,129
Hi

43
00:09:45,235 --> 00:09:47,706
Everybody was here, then they got word

44
00:09:47,737 --> 00:09:49,797
and they gone on up the line a ways.

45
00:09:50,308 --> 00:09:52,143
Some kind of union bizness.

46
00:09:53,044 --> 00:09:55,412
Yeah, I saw.
- You best steer clear of it.

47
00:09:57,982 --> 00:09:59,750
My name's Bridey Mae Tolliver.

48
00:10:00,651 --> 00:10:03,020
Uh, Joe Kenehan.

49
00:10:03,721 --> 00:10:06,556
Uh, you know

50
00:10:06,557 --> 00:10:09,459
Radnor's Boarding House?
- Big white house.

51
00:10:09,460 --> 00:10:13,863
Right on past the coal dock, she's a real sourpuss, though...

52
00:10:13,864 --> 00:10:14,899
Elma Radnor.

53
00:10:17,168 --> 00:10:17,801
Thank you.

54
00:10:18,202 --> 00:10:19,570
You gonna be in town long?

55
00:10:20,271 --> 00:10:21,439
It depends.

56
00:10:23,940 --> 00:10:25,041
I'll see you around.

57
00:10:32,116 --> 00:10:34,050
I hope so.

58
00:11:19,530 --> 00:11:21,564

59
00:11:21,565 --> 00:11:23,533

00:12:00,445 --> 00:12:02,039

93
00:13:08,018 --> 00:13:09,106
What do you do?

94
00:13:11,876 --> 00:13:15,345
Uh, I guess I'm looking for work.

95
00:13:15,546 --> 00:13:16,980
You with the Company?

96
00:13:17,481 --> 00:13:20,517
The company?
- If you ain't with the Company,

97
00:13:20,518 --> 00:13:21,468
there ain't no work.

98
00:13:24,822 --> 00:13:28,892
Look mister, don't act the lamb with me.
What's your business here?

99
00:13:28,993 --> 00:13:30,393
- Mama!

100
00:13:30,394 --> 00:13:33,801
- Mama, it's Hillard!
Them scabs done it, up the line a mile...

101
00:13:33,861 --> 00:13:35,833
They was all coloured this time,
they bust his nose!

102
00:13:35,854 --> 00:13:37,067
You got any ice?

103
00:13:37,098 --> 00:13:38,701
- Some in the back.
Go fetch me two chunks about this big

104
00:13:38,722 --> 00:13:39,936
and a piece of rag.

105
00:13:39,937 --> 00:13:42,406
You a doctor?
- No, but I seen my share

106
00:13:42,507 --> 00:13:44,008
of broken noses.

107
00:13:45,009 --> 00:13:47,010
Now just put it up in the air, buddy,
just like your watching

108
00:13:47,011 --> 00:13:48,011
the clouds.

109
00:13:49,079 --> 00:13:51,181
We'll get that bleeding stopped.

110
00:13:51,182 --> 00:13:52,482
I ga my liggid...

111
00:13:52,483 --> 00:13:54,851
Say what?
- He said he got his licks in.

112
00:13:54,852 --> 00:13:58,087
Seems to be all the men around here
care about, wives and kids are starving,

113
00:13:58,088 --> 00:13:59,789
so long as they've got their licks in...

114
00:13:59,858 --> 00:14:02,572
It's just frustration, is all

115
00:14:02,593 --> 00:14:05,008
when you can't take care of them you care about.

116
00:14:05,029 --> 00:14:06,066
I know, it ain't their fault.

117
00:14:06,097 --> 00:14:07,065
Here you go.

118
00:14:07,166 --> 00:14:09,100
This freezes up all them little veins inside.

119
00:14:09,131 --> 00:14:11,776
It's just so they close up and they

120
00:14:11,807 --> 00:14:13,804
don't let any more blood out.

121
00:14:13,935 --> 00:14:14,671
You a doctor?

122
00:14:15,192 --> 00:14:16,140
No.

123
00:14:17,841 --> 00:14:20,010
I'm just a guy looking for a place to stay.

124
00:14:21,211 --> 00:14:22,812
5 dollars a week cash.

125
00:14:23,713 --> 00:14:25,708
That includes dinner and clean sheets.

126
00:14:26,749 --> 00:14:28,451
Hope I'm not making a mistake.

127
00:14:29,653 --> 00:14:31,455
Name is Joe Kenehan.

128
00:14:37,828 --> 00:14:41,430
Well, mostly I work for the railroads, laying track.

129
00:14:41,461 --> 00:14:42,833
Kansas, Missouri...

130
00:14:43,834 --> 00:14:46,736
I went out west for a bit and worked in a lumber camp.

131
00:14:48,973 --> 00:14:51,174
A little of whatever pays an honest dollar.

132
00:14:51,415 --> 00:14:54,768
I'm a coalminer.
At least until we come out I was.

133
00:14:54,799 --> 00:14:56,847
Had me over in section 3.
I was a trapper boy.

134
00:14:58,248 --> 00:15:00,960
Ain't you a little young?
- I'm almost 15.

135
00:15:01,151 --> 00:15:03,920
There are some in there younger than me.

136
00:15:04,321 --> 00:15:05,725
Of course with the strike now

137
00:15:05,756 --> 00:15:06,823
I work mostly on running this place.

138
00:15:07,024 --> 00:15:08,958
I help a little, don't I?

139
00:15:09,959 --> 00:15:11,761
It's gonna be a long one.

140
00:15:11,762 --> 00:15:14,397
That superintendent at Stone Mountain he said

141
00:15:14,398 --> 00:15:18,234
he'd go broke before he let one union sumbitch so much as step

142
00:15:18,235 --> 00:15:19,469
into his coalmine.

143
00:15:19,470 --> 00:15:21,138
- Danny...
Sorry, ma'am,

144
00:15:21,179 --> 00:15:22,573
but that's what he said.

145
00:15:23,374 --> 00:15:25,608
Daniel is a preacher.
- Is that so?

146
00:15:25,609 --> 00:15:27,777
- You ought to hear him testify.

147
00:15:28,178 --> 00:15:29,546
What church you with?

148
00:15:30,147 --> 00:15:32,916
Well, round here there's the missionary folk... they's

149
00:15:32,917 --> 00:15:35,785
Hardshell Baptists and then there's the free will folks which is

150
00:15:35,786 --> 00:15:36,920
your Softshell Baptists.

151
00:15:36,921 --> 00:15:38,256
Right now I preach for both.

152
00:15:41,091 --> 00:15:42,326
I'll get it.

153
00:15:43,327 --> 00:15:46,116
Daniel is gonna preach tonight over at the missionary.

154
00:15:48,132 --> 00:15:49,899
I never was religious myself.

155
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,068
- It's Sephus, mama.

156
00:15:53,469 --> 00:15:54,637
Hello, Elma...

157
00:15:55,638 --> 00:15:57,040
Mrs. Knightes

158
00:15:57,041 --> 00:15:58,110
- Hello, Sephus.

159
00:15:59,101 --> 00:16:01,078
I come to have a word with your new boarder,

160
00:16:03,199 --> 00:16:04,215
if he don't mind.

161
00:16:06,917 --> 00:16:08,452
Excuse me.

162
00:16:24,568 --> 00:16:27,270
Claims he's the fella the union sent us.

163
00:16:29,673 --> 00:16:30,607
Can you prove it?

164
00:16:34,411 --> 00:16:35,845
Don't take nothing to have a card printed up.

165
00:16:37,648 --> 00:16:39,916
I guess you'll just have to trust me.

166
00:16:42,086 --> 00:16:44,021
Who wrote "The Iron Hill"?

167
00:16:45,022 --> 00:16:47,757
Jack London.
- Where's Joe Hill buried at?

168
00:16:47,958 --> 00:16:51,160
All over the world.
They scattered his ashes.

169
00:16:51,161 --> 00:16:53,596
Which eye is Big Bill Hayward missing?

170
00:16:58,002 --> 00:17:00,603
His right one.
- How did Frank Little die?

171
00:17:00,604 --> 00:17:03,873
Butte, Montana.
They hung him from a railroad trestle.

172
00:17:06,744 --> 00:17:08,978
- You know your stuff.

173
00:17:08,979 --> 00:17:12,348
I was with the Wobbley's.
- Me too,

174
00:17:12,349 --> 00:17:13,983
back when it meant something.

175
00:17:15,452 --> 00:17:19,088
One big union.
- Not around here buddy.

176
00:17:20,791 --> 00:17:22,158
C.E. Lively...

177
00:17:22,159 --> 00:17:25,361
this is my restaurant.
Fellas are waitin'.

178
00:17:32,469 --> 00:17:34,737
They don't give a damn whether we live or die

179
00:17:34,738 --> 00:17:37,507
just so long as they get the coal out of the ground.

180
00:17:37,508 --> 00:17:41,277
They had us pulling pillars and the roof was working, you know

181
00:17:41,278 --> 00:17:43,880
like it does before it's going to fall down.

182
00:17:43,881 --> 00:17:46,783
If I say I ain't dying in here and walk away

183
00:17:46,784 --> 00:17:50,553
they'll put me down in some damn puddle in a 2 foot seam

184
00:17:50,554 --> 00:17:54,791
and no air to breathe...
A man can't mine coal that way.

185
00:17:54,792 --> 00:17:57,560
They're just pushing us further than we can go.

186
00:17:57,561 --> 00:18:00,263
- The check wayman he'll take
50 pound off your load for slate

187
00:18:00,264 --> 00:18:01,664
when there ain't a pebble in it.

188
00:18:01,665 --> 00:18:04,601
It's down in the bottom he'll say where they ain't no looking for it.

189
00:18:04,702 --> 00:18:07,637
Then they raise the prices at
the Company Store the same goddamn week

190
00:18:07,638 --> 00:18:09,505
that they lower the tonnage rate.

191
00:18:09,506 --> 00:18:11,841
And they still ain't rock dusted that damn hole.

192
00:18:11,842 --> 00:18:14,877
- Who'm I talking about?
- Jesus

193
00:18:14,878 --> 00:18:16,212
- I can't hear you!
- Jesus!

194
00:18:16,213 --> 00:18:19,148
- I still can't hear you!
- Jesus!!

195
00:18:19,149 --> 00:18:22,185
Jesus Christ our lord!
Do you know His name?

196
00:18:22,186 --> 00:18:23,686
Hallelujah, say yeah!

197
00:18:23,687 --> 00:18:29,625
Have you felt the warming comfort of His precious love?

198
00:18:29,626 --> 00:18:31,928
Praise Jesus!

199
00:18:31,929 --> 00:18:33,463
Praise His holy name!

200
00:18:33,464 --> 00:18:35,631
Praise His blessed spirit!

201
00:18:35,632 --> 00:18:41,204
Praise His everlasting love!
Jesus Christ our lord!

202
00:18:41,205 --> 00:18:44,307
Listen to me now, listen to me.

203
00:18:45,943 --> 00:18:50,079
The prince of darkness

204
00:18:51,882 --> 00:18:54,808
is upon the land!

205
00:18:55,319 --> 00:18:56,486
Amen!

206
00:18:56,487 --> 00:19:02,458
Now in the bible his name is Beelzebub,

207
00:19:03,799 --> 00:19:06,429
Lord of the flies.

208
00:19:07,090 --> 00:19:10,433
Right now on earth today

209
00:19:10,794 --> 00:19:13,737
his name is bolshevick!

210
00:19:13,838 --> 00:19:17,774
Socialist!, communist!, union man!

211
00:19:17,775 --> 00:19:24,247
Lord of untruth, sower of evil seed, enemy of all that is good

212
00:19:24,248 --> 00:19:27,116
and pure and this creature

213
00:19:29,853 --> 00:19:32,355
walks among us.

214
00:19:34,858 --> 00:19:38,094
What are we gonna do about it?

215
00:20:03,153 --> 00:20:06,088
First thing we got to have is all of these niggers

216
00:20:06,089 --> 00:20:08,558
and all these dagos that come in here to take our jobs

217
00:20:08,589 --> 00:20:09,660
thrown out of the mines.

218
00:20:09,801 --> 00:20:12,565
Mines, hell! They got 'em in our houses,

219
00:20:12,596 --> 00:20:14,167
they're setting at our tables right now

220
00:20:14,198 --> 00:20:16,869
and they're sleeping in our beds
while we're out living under a

221
00:20:16,900 --> 00:20:18,805
piece of canvas at the back of the hollar.

222
00:20:19,036 --> 00:20:21,607
I been a union man my whole life.

223
00:20:21,638 --> 00:20:25,178
I know the story with these coal operators and their gun thugs.

224
00:20:25,209 --> 00:20:28,678
The only thing they understand is the bad end of a bullet.

225
00:20:29,179 --> 00:20:32,215
If we show 'em, we just as soon blow up their damn mines than

226
00:20:32,216 --> 00:20:35,818
seen them worked by a bunch of scabs
and then they gonna listen.

227
00:20:36,719 --> 00:20:39,655
- Someone is coming, it's Alex.
He got someone.

228
00:20:57,841 --> 00:20:59,375
Where did you find him?

229
00:20:59,676 --> 00:21:01,577
He come right up on the steps.

230
00:21:01,678 --> 00:21:06,008
They told me that C.E. Lively's is where the union mens meet.

231
00:21:06,049 --> 00:21:06,884
So?

232
00:21:09,519 --> 00:21:11,120
I got business with the union.

233
00:21:13,423 --> 00:21:15,058
That so?

234
00:21:15,159 --> 00:21:16,740
What's your name, son?

235
00:21:17,261 --> 00:21:20,196
They calls me "Few Clothes".

236
00:21:22,233 --> 00:21:24,050
I didn't come here looking for no trouble.

237
00:21:25,101 --> 00:21:26,616
A mans got to eat.

238
00:21:26,649 --> 00:21:28,877
So why don't you go eat, back where you come from?

239
00:21:28,926 --> 00:21:30,753
They told me that they was jobs here.

240
00:21:30,784 --> 00:21:33,542
- Go home nigger.
- Goddamn scab.

241
00:21:34,878 --> 00:21:37,247
You watch your mouth peckerwood!

242
00:21:41,652 --> 00:21:44,657
I been called nigger and I can't help that's the way white folks is,

243
00:21:44,688 --> 00:21:47,559
but I ain't never been called no scab!

244
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,061
And I ain't fixin' to start up now.

245
00:21:53,362 --> 00:21:56,359
I'll go ton for ton loading coal with any man here.

246
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,469
And when I do, I expects the same dollar for the same work.

247
00:21:58,464 --> 00:22:00,365
Union men my ass.

248
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,775
You get out of this hollar alive son,
you be doin' good for yourself.

249
00:22:22,759 --> 00:22:24,794
You want to be treated like men?

250
00:22:26,295 --> 00:22:27,964
You want to be treated fair?

251
00:22:29,365 --> 00:22:31,794
You ain't men to that coal company.

252
00:22:33,135 --> 00:22:34,770
You're equipment

253
00:22:35,371 --> 00:22:38,107
like a shovel, a gondola car,

254
00:22:38,708 --> 00:22:40,807
a hunk of wood brace.

255
00:22:42,178 --> 00:22:45,648
They'll use you til you wear out or you break down,

256
00:22:45,949 --> 00:22:49,485
or your buried under a slate fall and then they'll get a new one.

257
00:22:49,786 --> 00:22:53,853
And they don't care what color it is or where it comes from.

258
00:22:54,724 --> 00:22:56,792
It doesn't matter how much coal you can load

259
00:22:56,883 --> 00:22:59,755
or how long your family has lived on this land.

260
00:23:00,496 --> 00:23:05,707
If you stand alone you just so much shit to those people.

261
00:23:09,873 --> 00:23:11,974
You think this man is your enemy?

262
00:23:15,045 --> 00:23:16,213
Huh?

263
00:23:17,914 --> 00:23:20,249
This is a worker.

264
00:23:21,250 --> 00:23:23,422
Any union keeps this man out

265
00:23:23,453 --> 00:23:25,691
ain't a union,

266
00:23:25,722 --> 00:23:28,190
it's a goddamn club.

267
00:23:29,493 --> 00:23:32,228
Now they got you fighting white against colored,

268
00:23:32,229 --> 00:23:35,398
native against foreign, hollar against hollar,

269
00:23:36,199 --> 00:23:39,502
when you know there ain't but two sides to this world...

270
00:23:39,623 --> 00:23:41,804
them that work and them that don't.

271
00:23:41,805 --> 00:23:42,938
You work,

272
00:23:42,939 --> 00:23:44,801
they don't.

273
00:23:45,642 --> 00:23:48,610
That's all you got to know about the enemy.

274
00:23:52,049 --> 00:23:54,184
You say you got guns.

275
00:24:00,490 --> 00:24:03,426
Well I know that you all are brave men

276
00:24:03,797 --> 00:24:08,052
and I know you could shoot it out
with the company if you had to.

277
00:23:57,290 --> 00:23:59,787
But the coal company don't want this union

278
00:24:12,268 --> 00:24:14,240
and the state government don't want it.

279
00:24:14,271 --> 00:24:16,806
The federal government don't want it.

280
00:24:16,807 --> 00:24:20,243
And they're all of them just waiting for an excuse to come down

281
00:24:20,274 --> 00:24:21,811
and crush us to nothin'.

282
00:24:25,048 --> 00:24:28,651
Fellas, we're in a hole full of coal gas here.

283
00:24:29,752 --> 00:24:33,656
The tiniest spark at the wrong time
is going to be the end of us.

284
00:24:23,976 --> 00:24:26,311
So we got to pick away at this situation

285
00:24:38,292 --> 00:24:40,631
slow and careful.

286
00:24:42,032 --> 00:24:44,633
We got to organize and build support.

287
00:24:45,836 --> 00:24:47,887
We got to work together.

288
00:24:48,538 --> 00:24:49,839
Together!

289
00:24:50,540 --> 00:24:53,109
Til they can't get their coal out of the ground without us

290
00:24:53,130 --> 00:24:54,376
cuz we're a union!

291
00:24:55,012 --> 00:24:58,116
Cuz we're the workers damn it!
And we take care of each other.

292
00:25:00,117 --> 00:25:03,219
How can we shut the mines down
if we don't dynamite 'em?

293
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,502
The men walk out!

294
00:25:06,623 --> 00:25:08,291
All of them!

295
00:25:11,595 --> 00:25:13,306
Fat chance.

296
00:25:20,770 --> 00:25:24,073
And every man that walks out on his own steam

297
00:25:24,574 --> 00:25:26,806
we take into the union.

298
00:25:31,548 --> 00:25:33,482
All the dagos and all the coloreds?

299
00:25:35,853 --> 00:25:38,020
That's what a union is fellas.

300
00:25:39,924 --> 00:25:42,792
You better get used to it.

301
00:25:43,293 --> 00:25:46,428
So this fella owns a vineyard,
goes out first thing one morning

302
00:25:46,429 --> 00:25:47,963
and he hires some workers.

303
00:25:47,964 --> 00:25:50,599
Says he'll give 'em a dollar for the day which was decent wages

304
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:51,934
in biblical times.

305
00:25:52,935 --> 00:25:54,803
Well then he's at the marketplace and he sees some

306
00:25:54,804 --> 00:25:56,872
other fellas and he hires them.

307
00:25:56,873 --> 00:25:59,906
And some more at noon and some at 2 and some at 5 and

308
00:25:59,937 --> 00:26:01,824
every time it's the same deal...

309
00:26:01,855 --> 00:26:04,540
a dollar for the day and he's hiring all day long right up

310
00:26:04,581 --> 00:26:06,081
til 1 hour before quitting time.

311
00:26:17,794 --> 00:26:20,229
Look we're real sorry to barge in on you like this,

312
00:26:20,230 --> 00:26:23,265
but it's come to a point where we got to talk to you.

313
00:26:24,734 --> 00:26:27,570
Now I know you people got it hard coming to a new country.

314
00:26:27,971 --> 00:26:29,839
You don't know the rules.

315
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,988
Don't know how things work.

316
00:26:32,209 --> 00:26:34,944
They don't know shit about mining coal that's for sure.

317
00:26:35,145 --> 00:26:38,280
They been dying like flies in that #3 hole.

318
00:26:38,432 --> 00:26:40,100
What's he saying?

319
00:26:40,483 --> 00:26:42,585
But how it is,

320
00:26:42,586 --> 00:26:45,921
you don't have a whole lot
of choice in this thing.

321
00:26:46,622 --> 00:26:48,457
You know what a union is?

322
00:26:48,458 --> 00:26:51,493
Sindacato.
- Sindacato?

323
00:26:51,494 --> 00:26:54,697
What the situation is,

324
00:26:54,698 --> 00:26:57,566
we need every...
- We join the union they shoot us.

325
00:26:57,567 --> 00:27:01,036
We no join the union you shoot us.

326
00:27:07,410 --> 00:27:09,778
Well, that's one way of looking at it.

327
00:27:10,297 --> 00:27:13,717
- What does he want?
- He wants us to join the union.

328
00:27:14,718 --> 00:27:16,929
The union! The union again!

329
00:27:41,611 --> 00:27:43,512
That dago's just driving me crazy.

330
00:27:44,648 --> 00:27:46,915
- Now what's he playing?
- Shhhh...

331
00:27:48,420 --> 00:27:49,754
Now who's that?

332
00:28:20,950 --> 00:28:22,919
Peckerwood's gone past.

333
00:28:24,220 --> 00:28:26,090
Union man will be up in a few minutes.

334
00:28:27,491 --> 00:28:29,660
What we talking to him for?

335
00:28:29,871 --> 00:28:32,491
You want to walk back to Alabama?

336
00:28:35,065 --> 00:28:37,934
The sun goes down and he sends
for his foreman and he says to

337
00:28:37,965 --> 00:28:40,804
go pay off the workers starting with the ones he picked up just

338
00:28:40,835 --> 00:28:44,140
an hour ago and to pay
everyone of them the same dollar a day.

339
00:28:44,171 --> 00:28:46,211
And of course the fellas that went out first

340
00:28:46,242 --> 00:28:47,877
is roped off about this.

341
00:28:48,878 --> 00:28:51,613
So they get to agitating, complaining so loud that the

342
00:28:51,614 --> 00:28:53,415
owner come up and he says, "Look it,

343
00:28:53,416 --> 00:28:57,119
we dealt for a dollar and that's what you get.

344
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,989
And what I pay anybody else is none of your look out, so there."

345
00:29:02,590 --> 00:29:05,541
Now that's all the gospel story says except for the moral Jesus

346
00:29:05,562 --> 00:29:07,295
drew out of it.

347
00:29:08,296 --> 00:29:10,299
And so Jesus says,

348
00:29:10,500 --> 00:29:14,451
Thus it will be in the kingdom of heaven the first will be last

349
00:29:14,484 --> 00:29:16,138
and the last will be first.

350
00:29:18,675 --> 00:29:20,556
Now it's clear from this parable

351
00:29:20,587 --> 00:29:23,158
that Jesus hadn't heard nothin' about the union.

352
00:29:23,189 --> 00:29:26,318
If he was walking the earth today and seen the situation we

353
00:29:26,349 --> 00:29:29,051
got with these coal operators he'd a changed his tune.

354
00:29:29,102 --> 00:29:32,167
A man deserveth an hourly wage.
He'd say for those

355
00:29:32,198 --> 00:29:35,071
the pit be gassy and the face full of slate, a man still toileth by

356
00:29:35,103 --> 00:29:36,495
the sweat of his brow.

357
00:29:36,526 --> 00:29:39,752
And wants a better deal here on earth,
no matter what I got in store

358
00:29:39,783 --> 00:29:41,153
for him in the hereafter?

359
00:29:41,184 --> 00:29:43,066
Praise Jesus!

360
00:29:46,336 --> 00:29:48,771
- Kenehan.

361
00:29:51,374 --> 00:29:53,142
Out kinda late, aren't you?

362
00:29:53,743 --> 00:29:56,912
I met some people and we got to talking.

363
00:29:58,749 --> 00:29:59,882
Talking?

364
00:30:01,217 --> 00:30:02,284
- Yeah.

365
00:30:04,020 --> 00:30:04,820
Who are you?

366
00:30:06,256 --> 00:30:08,124
Name is Sid Hatfield.

367
00:30:08,425 --> 00:30:10,327
I'm chief of police around here.

368
00:30:11,428 --> 00:30:14,130
It ain't against the law to talk, is it?

369
00:30:16,366 --> 00:30:17,599
Depends.

370
00:30:24,574 --> 00:30:26,975
I take care of my people.

371
00:30:27,676 --> 00:30:30,179
You bring them trouble, you're a dead man.

372
00:30:36,719 --> 00:30:39,254
Sleep tight, Kenehan

373
00:31:43,653 --> 00:31:44,619
Hi.

374
00:31:46,389 --> 00:31:48,795
Well, look at this, Griggsy.

375
00:31:48,926 --> 00:31:51,791
They got up a little reception committee for us.

376
00:32:00,037 --> 00:32:04,440
- What is your name, honey?
- Bridey Mae Tolliver.

377
00:32:05,041 --> 00:32:08,410
You like to watch the trains come and go, Bridey Mae?

378
00:32:10,311 --> 00:32:11,612
Yeah.

379
00:32:11,881 --> 00:32:14,817
And the people what come into town.

380
00:32:15,418 --> 00:32:18,186
There been a lot of new people coming here lately?

381
00:32:18,187 --> 00:32:18,954
A few.

382
00:32:20,690 --> 00:32:22,991
- Fella named Joe Kenehan show up?

383
00:32:27,030 --> 00:32:28,464
Maybe.

384
00:32:30,466 --> 00:32:32,801
Are you married, Bridey Mae?

385
00:32:33,202 --> 00:32:34,602
I was.

386
00:32:35,003 --> 00:32:37,306
He got killed in the mine.

387
00:32:38,107 --> 00:32:39,805
That's too bad.

388
00:32:40,476 --> 00:32:43,111
Did you hear that, Griggsy?
He got killed in the mine.

389
00:32:43,647 --> 00:32:44,816
It's a shame.

390
00:32:47,117 --> 00:32:50,792
Was your husband a union man while he was living?

391
00:32:50,853 --> 00:32:54,089
No. He said it wouldn't never take hold down here.

392
00:32:54,891 --> 00:32:57,459
He sounds like a smart fella.

393
00:33:00,496 --> 00:33:05,000
I think that you are real pretty.
You know that, Bridey Mae?

394
00:33:06,736 --> 00:33:08,171
Thank you.

395
00:33:10,373 --> 00:33:12,675
Don't you think she's pretty, Griggsy?

396
00:33:16,913 --> 00:33:22,001
You are the best looking mountain trash I've seen

397
00:33:22,051 --> 00:33:23,791
in a long while.

398
00:33:27,657 --> 00:33:30,025
We'll see you around.

399
00:33:34,497 --> 00:33:36,965
Let's roll, Griggsy.

400
00:33:38,468 --> 00:33:41,636
The sooner we get out of this shithole the better.

401
00:33:55,918 --> 00:33:59,822
I was putting up blackberrys when Tremel Blankenship come

402
00:33:59,853 --> 00:34:02,826
shouting up the hollar that the #5 had blown.

403
00:34:04,427 --> 00:34:07,301
I remember I took the pot off the stovetop

404
00:34:07,331 --> 00:34:09,931
and washed up my hands before I went down.

405
00:34:13,036 --> 00:34:16,051
It took two days to dig through.

406
00:34:16,083 --> 00:34:19,808
Then when they brung 'em up you
couldn't tell which was which.

407
00:34:20,109 --> 00:34:22,878
They found blood on the walls from fellas trying

408
00:34:22,899 --> 00:34:24,839
to claw their way out.

409
00:34:26,449 --> 00:34:29,911
Mrs. Elkins, Mrs. Mounts, Bridey Mae, me...

410
00:34:29,952 --> 00:34:32,821
we all lost our men in that fire.

411
00:34:35,024 --> 00:34:36,787
Danny was 7 then.

412
00:34:37,828 --> 00:34:40,309
Now he's back in that same hole.

413
00:34:43,066 --> 00:34:44,267
How did it start?

414
00:34:45,568 --> 00:34:48,105
Coal dust gets hanging in the air down there

415
00:34:48,146 --> 00:34:49,806
and there's a spark.

416
00:34:50,407 --> 00:34:52,474
They could spray the walls down but the company says

417
00:34:52,495 --> 00:34:54,075
that'd cost too much.

418
00:34:56,045 --> 00:34:59,615
Hey, was...uh, was Sid Hatfield ever a miner?

419
00:35:00,806 --> 00:35:03,919
Not for long.
He don't like to be closed in, Sid.

420
00:35:03,930 --> 00:35:07,522
He's always real friendly, smiling Sid.

421
00:35:07,553 --> 00:35:10,439
Then the war come.

422
00:35:10,490 --> 00:35:12,517
Cabell Testerman got to be the mayor.

423
00:35:12,548 --> 00:35:15,832
He made Sid chief of police and then the girl

424
00:35:15,853 --> 00:35:18,434
that Cabell married... Well...

425
00:35:24,674 --> 00:35:27,876
I don't want you using Danny on
no crazy union business.

426
00:35:28,427 --> 00:35:31,179
A man has to stand up
for what he believes in.

427
00:35:31,655 --> 00:35:33,450
Danny ain't no man.

428
00:35:35,451 --> 00:35:38,233
Look'it mister,
you gonna be movin' on.

429
00:35:38,664 --> 00:35:41,056
Win or lose your gonna walk on out of this hollar

430
00:35:41,087 --> 00:35:42,424
and we gotta stay here.

431
00:35:42,725 --> 00:35:45,226
I intend to leave a union when I go.

432
00:35:45,727 --> 00:35:47,909
My husband used to talk union.

433
00:35:48,540 --> 00:35:50,365
I seen where it got him.

434
00:35:55,071 --> 00:35:57,806
- Mama. People out front mama.

435
00:36:06,482 --> 00:36:09,805
Sorry mister, we're full up.
- Not anymore your not, sonny.

436
00:36:10,086 --> 00:36:12,968
Stone Mountain sent us down here.
- We're still full up.

437
00:36:13,689 --> 00:36:15,871
Can I help you gentleman?
- These two are trying

438
00:36:15,892 --> 00:36:18,326
to push their way in here.
I told them there wasn't no use.

439
00:36:18,427 --> 00:36:19,818
I don't see where you got any say in the matter.

440
00:36:19,839 --> 00:36:22,531
If my mama says you can't stay here
then you can't, that's all.

441
00:36:22,632 --> 00:36:23,265
Danny!

442
00:36:23,286 --> 00:36:24,534
Keep out of this.

443
00:36:25,735 --> 00:36:27,069
Look, I only got one room left.

444
00:36:27,470 --> 00:36:29,938
Well then, somebody is going to have to move, don't they?

445
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:34,142
Let me see your register?
- You ain't seein' nothin'.

446
00:36:35,878 --> 00:36:39,901
Lady, we're here as guests of the Stone Mountain Coal Company.

447
00:36:39,982 --> 00:36:41,349
They own this house.

448
00:36:42,150 --> 00:36:43,519
- Good mornin'.

449
00:36:44,220 --> 00:36:45,921
You fellas movin' in?

450
00:36:45,922 --> 00:36:47,422
Yeah.
- No.

451
00:36:47,423 --> 00:36:51,126
Well, you wont find
a better night's sleep anywheres in town.

452
00:36:51,527 --> 00:36:54,963
It's a shame I got to
move over to the hotel.

453
00:36:54,964 --> 00:36:57,566
It's business you know.

454
00:36:59,268 --> 00:37:02,038
So you mind if I settle my bill, ma'am?

455
00:37:03,639 --> 00:37:06,842
Danny, you sign these two gentleman in.

456
00:37:13,816 --> 00:37:15,984
Don't think the Company isn't going to hear about this.

457
00:37:29,465 --> 00:37:32,934
Boy, sometimes you got to bend so as you don't break.

458
00:37:34,807 --> 00:37:36,738
Food's awful at the hotel.

459
00:37:37,739 --> 00:37:39,641
Mattresses got lumps,

460
00:37:39,642 --> 00:37:41,978
probably cooties, too.

461
00:37:44,179 --> 00:37:46,081
I'll be all right.

462
00:37:48,084 --> 00:37:51,519
I'll get my things.
-Thank you.

463
00:38:00,097 --> 00:38:02,792
Now, if you want to stay alive down here,

464
00:38:02,832 --> 00:38:05,834
you got to listen up, get a hold of something solid,

465
00:38:05,935 --> 00:38:08,772
and give the top a little poke.

466
00:38:08,838 --> 00:38:13,108
Now, if you get a nice ringing sound you're all set.

467
00:38:14,911 --> 00:38:17,579
Got a nice solid top over your head.

468
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:22,017
You get a kinda hollow sound,

469
00:38:22,058 --> 00:38:26,488
like a drum, that slate's sagging a bit,

470
00:38:26,531 --> 00:38:29,731
and you gotta put in another post.

471
00:38:29,892 --> 00:38:34,231
You dig coals a long time?
- Since I was 10. And you?

472
00:38:34,632 --> 00:38:39,000
We make a shoe.
Everybody in same fabricca Milano,

473
00:38:39,082 --> 00:38:41,036
make a shoe.

474
00:38:41,537 --> 00:38:44,674
- Shoes.

475
00:38:46,275 --> 00:38:48,042
You make-a shoes.

476
00:38:50,279 --> 00:38:53,414
As soon as they get that union
they'll send us back.

477
00:38:53,915 --> 00:38:55,218
It could be.

478
00:38:56,319 --> 00:39:00,088
But, you try and head out of here now,
you be owin' all that money,

479
00:39:00,089 --> 00:39:02,724
like they say, company shoot you for a thief.

480
00:39:03,225 --> 00:39:07,629
We just some slaves up here.
They own our black asses.

481
00:39:09,131 --> 00:39:10,301
Gentleman.

482
00:39:12,101 --> 00:39:13,468
- Hey, Few, I got a question for you.

483
00:39:14,069 --> 00:39:14,970
Yes...

484
00:39:15,471 --> 00:39:18,574
Now suppose they let us in this union like they say.

485
00:39:18,805 --> 00:39:20,842
We gonna have to work with them Italian people?

486
00:39:22,737 --> 00:39:24,155
The bosses have the guns.

487
00:39:24,405 --> 00:39:26,783
- The miners have guns, too.
- Maybe, maybe not.

488
00:39:26,991 --> 00:39:29,202
I just don't want my family to starve.

489
00:39:29,410 --> 00:39:31,371
The miners have families, too.

490
00:39:31,704 --> 00:39:32,914
Let's vote.

491
00:39:38,060 --> 00:39:38,760
C'mon babies...

492
00:39:39,862 --> 00:39:42,731
C'mon and get it now,
c'mon, c'mon...

493
00:39:47,169 --> 00:39:49,304
C'mon now.

494
00:39:51,907 --> 00:39:52,841
Oh, boy.

495
00:39:53,810 --> 00:39:55,245
Taking a walk?

496
00:39:56,846 --> 00:40:00,616
I'm going up to the coal camp to meet those new fellas

497
00:40:00,652 --> 00:40:02,517
when they come off their shifts.

498
00:40:04,587 --> 00:40:06,588
Your doing union business, ain't ya?

499
00:40:09,625 --> 00:40:11,659
How you like Mrs. Radnor's?

500
00:40:11,660 --> 00:40:16,031
Well there wasn't room.
I'm at the hotel now.

501
00:40:16,032 --> 00:40:17,702
Isn't she a sourpuss though?

502
00:40:19,103 --> 00:40:22,737
- Mr. Kenehan!
They's evictin' in town, Mr. Kenehan

503
00:40:22,738 --> 00:40:26,474
It's Baldwin, them Baldwin thugs.

504
00:41:08,484 --> 00:41:10,018
This is town property.

505
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,288
- Who are you?

506
00:41:12,859 --> 00:41:14,256
I'm the mayor.

507
00:41:15,057 --> 00:41:18,960
Well, pleased to meet you.
My name is Bill Hickey.

508
00:41:19,161 --> 00:41:22,097
This is Tom Griggs.
We're carrying out an eviction

509
00:41:22,138 --> 00:41:23,331
for Stone Mountain.

510
00:41:23,652 --> 00:41:26,201
You can do what you want up at the coal camp,

511
00:41:26,232 --> 00:41:28,570
but this is town property.

512
00:41:28,871 --> 00:41:31,339
Stone Mountain holds the deeds on these houses, Cabell.

513
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,742
- You need a writ for eviction.

514
00:41:37,012 --> 00:41:38,313
You the law around here?

515
00:41:39,114 --> 00:41:40,349
Well good.

516
00:41:40,850 --> 00:41:44,486
Then you can help us.
Now these people are trespassing on

517
00:41:44,487 --> 00:41:45,854
Company property.

518
00:41:46,055 --> 00:41:48,837
They all signed a contract that they wouldn't join any union.

519
00:41:48,868 --> 00:41:52,395
You uh, you Baldwin-Felts agency?

520
00:41:53,896 --> 00:41:54,462
That's right.

521
00:41:56,833 --> 00:41:59,334
Presently employed by the Stone Mountain Coal Company.

522
00:42:02,271 --> 00:42:04,807
This is from Mr. Turley here,

523
00:42:06,108 --> 00:42:09,844
and this is from our boss,
Mr. Thomas Felts.

524
00:42:11,147 --> 00:42:13,016
I've met Mr. Felts.

525
00:42:14,517 --> 00:42:17,385
Well good, we won't have any problem.

526
00:42:17,586 --> 00:42:20,459
I wouldn't pee on him if his heart was on fire.

527
00:42:25,828 --> 00:42:28,163
Neither of these will do for a writ.

528
00:42:28,264 --> 00:42:29,931
You'll have to see a judge in Charleston.

529
00:42:31,700 --> 00:42:34,336
What if we ain't got time to go to Charleston?

530
00:42:34,637 --> 00:42:38,604
Then you better find some.
Now I can't do nothin' about what you

531
00:42:38,641 --> 00:42:40,211
pull outside town limits,

532
00:42:40,342 --> 00:42:43,458
but you bother these people under my jurisdiction,

533
00:42:43,489 --> 00:42:44,842
I'll put you under arrest.

534
00:42:45,313 --> 00:42:46,915
Yeah?

535
00:42:47,316 --> 00:42:48,918
You and whose army?

536
00:42:53,923 --> 00:42:58,484
All you men own a gun, go home and get it.

537
00:42:58,527 --> 00:43:00,296
You're deputies as of now.

538
00:43:03,165 --> 00:43:06,134
The rest of you people stick close, we'll need witnesses.

539
00:43:08,537 --> 00:43:11,006
I'm giving you 10 minutes to get those people's belongings

540
00:43:11,037 --> 00:43:12,374
back in the house.

541
00:43:12,505 --> 00:43:14,806
If the rest of the boys was here you wouldn't be so cocky.

542
00:43:17,180 --> 00:43:20,781
If the rest of the boys was here, I'd give you 5 minutes.

543
00:43:21,317 --> 00:43:22,638
Now move it.

544
00:43:39,601 --> 00:43:43,471
You can't win you know, this is going to happen with you,

545
00:43:43,472 --> 00:43:44,539
without you.

546
00:43:45,240 --> 00:43:46,908
You can't stop it.

547
00:43:50,713 --> 00:43:54,806
All right boys,
let's put it back in.

548
00:43:55,017 --> 00:43:56,317
This ain't our day.

549
00:43:57,686 --> 00:43:58,886
- That a boy, Sid!

550
00:44:11,433 --> 00:44:14,902
I never seen a law man buck a company gun before.

551
00:44:20,809 --> 00:44:23,444
He's mostly a real nice feller, is Sid.

552
00:44:23,809 --> 00:44:26,444
I may be mayor of the town,
but I'm gonna be mayor of a cemetary.

553
00:44:27,213 --> 00:44:29,184
Contention makes him nervous, though.

554
00:44:31,186 --> 00:44:33,655
We got a motion on the floor here

555
00:44:35,756 --> 00:44:38,159
and this is coal miners only.

556
00:44:42,364 --> 00:44:46,124
All them in favor of keeping
them scabs out of the mines

557
00:44:46,145 --> 00:44:50,518
tomorrow morning using whatever
force it looks like is necessary

558
00:44:51,191 --> 00:44:53,641
raise your hands.

559
00:45:04,753 --> 00:45:06,922
It's settled then.

560
00:45:10,893 --> 00:45:12,995
Pass them peas, boy.

561
00:45:19,802 --> 00:45:21,570
Pass the peas, Danny.

562
00:45:24,006 --> 00:45:26,074
You boy deaf or dumb or what?

563
00:45:26,775 --> 00:45:29,178
Daniel ain't dumb, Daniel's a preacher.

564
00:45:30,409 --> 00:45:32,314
That right, boy? You a preacher?

565
00:45:33,015 --> 00:45:36,117
Who do you preach to, boy?
Squirrels?

566
00:45:36,718 --> 00:45:39,455
Daniel preached at the meeting last night.

567
00:45:39,686 --> 00:45:41,419
It was a good number of souls there.

568
00:45:41,460 --> 00:45:43,859
You a soul saver, boy?

569
00:45:47,396 --> 00:45:49,165
You want to have a go at me and Griggsy here.

570
00:45:49,236 --> 00:45:51,133
We ought to be be a real challenge.

571
00:45:51,834 --> 00:45:54,869
He's a squirrel preacher is what stands up on a stump

572
00:45:54,870 --> 00:45:56,003
out in the woods and

573
00:45:56,004 --> 00:45:58,673
testifies to the holy rodent.
- Danny!

574
00:45:58,874 --> 00:46:01,043
You in a hurry to meet your maker, boy?

575
00:46:02,544 --> 00:46:04,839
- Ain't no guns allowed at table.

576
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:06,282
Sit down, Danny!

577
00:46:10,386 --> 00:46:14,155
You do what your pretty mama says, preacher.

578
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,068
You put that away now, mister.

579
00:46:29,304 --> 00:46:31,174
Pack it away, Griggsy.

580
00:46:32,975 --> 00:46:36,858
Look, we're gonna be here a while, little lady.

581
00:46:36,899 --> 00:46:39,832
You can have it the easy way or the hard way.

582
00:46:41,250 --> 00:46:43,217
Now, how about them peas?

583
00:46:50,259 --> 00:46:52,427
Boy's gettin' on my nerves.

584
00:47:08,677 --> 00:47:09,878
Oh lord!

585
00:47:10,379 --> 00:47:12,640
They told me they would talk to the fellas.

586
00:47:12,681 --> 00:47:14,550
I saw they're faces last night, Joe.

587
00:47:14,951 --> 00:47:16,284
They wasn't buying it.

588
00:47:16,385 --> 00:47:17,989
We're playing right into the company's plans...

589
00:47:18,020 --> 00:47:20,888
The men voted, Joe.
What more do you want?

590
00:47:25,802 --> 00:47:27,728
I seen the lights on the hill.

591
00:47:27,729 --> 00:47:29,931
They're sneaking them in for a night shift.

592
00:47:33,869 --> 00:47:35,971
Let's go fellas.

593
00:47:45,547 --> 00:47:47,916
- Keller told me you're
sent from the union.

594
00:47:48,017 --> 00:47:49,113
Uh-huh.

595
00:47:49,194 --> 00:47:51,252
- I bet you seen hundreds of strikes.

596
00:47:51,753 --> 00:47:52,921
Yeah.

597
00:47:53,222 --> 00:47:55,256
I got thrown clear out of the missionary the other night,

598
00:47:55,357 --> 00:47:58,159
talking the union from the pulpit.

599
00:47:58,660 --> 00:48:01,729
Is we gettin' close?
- Up there.

600
00:48:14,710 --> 00:48:15,643
They're down the hill!

601
00:48:15,644 --> 00:48:17,412
Over here.

602
00:49:13,435 --> 00:49:15,369
When our fellas put their lanterns out,

603
00:49:15,370 --> 00:49:17,206
you just hit the dirt.

604
00:49:50,372 --> 00:49:52,106
I think this belongs to you.

605
00:50:04,585 --> 00:50:05,954
I'm with him.

606
00:50:10,359 --> 00:50:13,894
All of you union men, let's welcome our new brothers.

607
00:50:24,039 --> 00:50:25,707
From now on

608
00:50:26,708 --> 00:50:29,824
Stone Mountain don't move one piece of coal unless it's

609
00:50:29,855 --> 00:50:31,593
a union man that moves it.

610
00:50:34,703 --> 00:50:36,216
Let's get out of here.

611
00:50:50,823 --> 00:50:52,528
Glad you could help us.

612
00:51:17,993 --> 00:51:21,996
In them days the coal company owned your camp houses,

613
00:51:21,997 --> 00:51:25,300
they owned your land, they owned most of the town

614
00:51:25,331 --> 00:51:26,902
and the people who run it.

615
00:51:27,003 --> 00:51:30,204
If you wasn't for the company,
there wasn't too many places

616
00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,739
you could go that was still on the map.

617
00:51:49,758 --> 00:51:51,505
The union didn't have too much,

618
00:51:51,539 --> 00:51:53,561
they could give to the people back then.

619
00:51:53,862 --> 00:51:56,534
'All we got in common is our misery',

620
00:51:56,601 --> 00:52:01,335
Joe Kenehan used to say,
'and the least we can do is share it.'

621
00:52:35,335 --> 00:52:37,404
She got the evil eye that one.

622
00:52:40,276 --> 00:52:41,803
Aw, mama.

623
00:52:42,144 --> 00:52:43,905
Don't you let me catch you peeking over there.

624
00:52:44,046 --> 00:52:45,713
She got the evil eye if I ever seen it.

625
00:52:51,453 --> 00:52:53,255
Well, whatta we got here?

626
00:52:53,406 --> 00:52:55,623
We brung you some food.
Mama stole it from the company.

627
00:52:55,724 --> 00:52:58,225
Quiet, Danny.
- Well we can use

628
00:52:58,226 --> 00:52:59,560
everything you got.

629
00:52:59,661 --> 00:53:02,663
You people are crazy, you ain't never gonna win this thing.

630
00:53:02,964 --> 00:53:05,833
Then what are you helping us for?

631
00:53:08,003 --> 00:53:09,770
I got work to do.

632
00:53:12,607 --> 00:53:14,409
We appreciate your help.

633
00:53:15,410 --> 00:53:17,444
I ain't never seen everybody all together like this.

634
00:53:18,347 --> 00:53:20,549
Company don't stand a chance.

635
00:54:03,992 --> 00:54:05,794
Jessie...

636
00:54:21,243 --> 00:54:23,111
What's the pitch?

637
00:54:24,512 --> 00:54:28,586
Well I was just saying to the mayor here how

638
00:54:28,617 --> 00:54:34,401
we're all trying to do our jobs.
You, and me and him.

639
00:54:34,432 --> 00:54:39,427
And nobody is paying us enough to be dodging no bullets for it.

640
00:54:41,529 --> 00:54:44,365
Um, now,

641
00:54:44,366 --> 00:54:48,182
Mr. Felts has authorized me to

642
00:54:48,203 --> 00:54:52,506
make it more attractive for you gentleman to cooperate.

643
00:54:53,107 --> 00:54:55,510
Town ain't for sale, mister.

644
00:54:59,148 --> 00:55:00,581
What about you?

645
00:55:02,417 --> 00:55:07,134
Now, I figured that little show you were putting on out there

646
00:55:07,165 --> 00:55:10,591
the other day was just for bargaining power.

647
00:55:11,636 --> 00:55:14,602
Or are you going to be stupid, too?

648
00:55:24,506 --> 00:55:27,374
Either a you shit hogs lift a finger

649
00:55:27,409 --> 00:55:31,312
in town limits, I'll put you away.

650
00:55:38,453 --> 00:55:41,622
Damn hillbillys always gotta do it the hard way.

651
00:55:49,264 --> 00:55:52,266
You boys are going up against some

652
00:55:52,267 --> 00:55:55,436
pretty big people.

653
00:56:07,349 --> 00:56:10,017
Don't push your luck.

654
00:56:26,634 --> 00:56:30,137
How's Jessie these days?
- Oh she's okay, Sid.

655
00:56:32,641 --> 00:56:33,807
You think they're bluffin'?

656
00:56:36,078 --> 00:56:37,812
Nope.

657
00:56:39,447 --> 00:56:42,349
Neither am I.

658
00:56:46,354 --> 00:56:49,323
Now the way the relief fund works is kind of tricky

659
00:56:50,124 --> 00:56:53,007
cuz all the	different situations we got

660
00:56:53,058 --> 00:56:54,895
going around the country.

661
00:56:55,196 --> 00:56:59,467
We stretched real thin.
There's a lot of strategy to

662
00:56:59,498 --> 00:57:01,368
who gets what and when.

663
00:57:01,669 --> 00:57:03,604
I report to the strike committee.

664
00:57:04,105 --> 00:57:06,520
They evaluate the progress we're making here

665
00:57:06,551 --> 00:57:08,078
and the political situation

666
00:57:08,109 --> 00:57:10,311
and then they release the strike fund to us.

667
00:57:10,692 --> 00:57:12,013
You mean they'd cut us off?

668
00:57:12,414 --> 00:57:15,849
No, the amount we get is based on...

669
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:18,645
What if they think we're going to lose?

670
00:57:19,686 --> 00:57:22,302
Look the strike committee considers what's best

671
00:57:22,333 --> 00:57:24,712
for the union as a whole, but that doesn't mean...

672
00:57:24,743 --> 00:57:26,507
Politics boys.

673
00:57:26,538 --> 00:57:29,197
Gonna play union, you gotta play politics.

674
00:57:29,998 --> 00:57:33,200
I'm sure Joe don't like that
no more than you do.

675
00:58:44,038 --> 00:58:45,739
- I don't like it one damn bit.

676
00:58:45,740 --> 00:58:48,555
Me neither, I didn't get into this thing so I can have

677
00:58:48,586 --> 00:58:50,610
one more boss to tell me what to do.

678
00:58:50,661 --> 00:58:52,847
The union isn't your boss,
it's you.

679
00:58:52,898 --> 00:58:54,361
Then why we gotta wait

680
00:58:54,392 --> 00:58:56,350
for some hunkies up in Pittsburgh to give us

681
00:58:56,381 --> 00:58:57,518
the word to move?

682
00:58:57,919 --> 00:59:01,588
Cause it's a democracy.
It's like the United States.

683
00:59:01,589 --> 00:59:04,391
Democracy.
- That's a joke.

684
00:59:04,392 --> 00:59:05,492
Quiet!

685
00:59:11,807 --> 00:59:12,902
Get down, they're shootin!

686
00:59:22,777 --> 00:59:24,344
Just keep your head down, son.

687
00:59:25,780 --> 00:59:27,549
They're gonna make a night of it.

688
00:59:47,803 --> 00:59:50,205
I think you just got a little piece of bullet left in there.

689
00:59:51,406 --> 00:59:53,454
Company doctor said he wouldn't come out.

690
00:59:54,485 --> 00:59:56,802
But there's a fella in Pikeville on the Kentucky side

691
00:59:56,833 --> 00:59:59,714
that'll treat union men on the sly.

692
01:00:00,315 --> 01:00:01,683
He'll be here by noon.

693
01:00:02,684 --> 01:00:04,284
Will he treat colored?

694
01:00:04,705 --> 01:00:07,022
He treats union, he'll treat colored.

695
01:00:07,323 --> 01:00:09,557
More water, Danny
- Yes, ma'am

696
01:00:10,558 --> 01:00:12,706
You just hold this up there against that real gentle.

697
01:00:12,737 --> 01:00:16,397
Don't press hard.
- Hey, Elma, you seen any of the men?

698
01:00:18,933 --> 01:00:20,268
Only them that's wounded.

699
01:00:23,704 --> 01:00:25,073
How's he doin'?
- Not bad.

700
01:00:26,074 --> 01:00:27,842
At least nobody got killed.

701
01:00:28,043 --> 01:00:29,543
No thanks to you.

702
01:00:31,179 --> 01:00:33,081
Take it easy buddy.

703
01:00:34,082 --> 01:00:35,849
Morning, Joe.

704
01:00:35,850 --> 01:00:37,017
- Hey, Bridey.

705
01:00:37,048 --> 01:00:39,586
You seen any of the fellas?
- Not a one.

706
01:00:42,457 --> 01:00:44,194
He's real nice lookin'.

707
01:00:45,225 --> 01:00:47,828
He likes me, I can tell.

708
01:00:48,204 --> 01:00:52,167
- How?
- I just know men that's all.

709
01:00:53,239 --> 01:00:55,468
That'd make a cat laugh.

710
01:00:57,138 --> 01:00:59,306
- If you want to make that kind of slop
- Let me go, you old witch!

711
01:00:59,306 --> 01:01:00,075
for dinner you go back home and make it.

712
01:01:00,075 --> 01:01:01,284
Your food is for pigs!

713
01:01:02,043 --> 01:01:04,845
This is United States here and we do things differently.

714
01:01:04,946 --> 01:01:08,215
Listen to me, you can

715
01:01:06,748 --> 01:01:08,834
Your food is poison.

716
01:01:08,216 --> 01:01:09,685
learn something here.

717
01:01:09,793 --> 01:01:11,628
How do they eat that swill without dying?

718
01:01:11,886 --> 01:01:12,986
C'mon ladies, what's the problem?

719
01:01:12,754 --> 01:01:14,840
This idiot won't let me make polenta!

720
01:01:14,841 --> 01:01:18,594
I thought she was going to make up some cornbread with it.
You should see the slop she come up with.

721
01:01:18,969 --> 01:01:22,800
She can poison her own people, but half of this is mine.

722
01:01:22,997 --> 01:01:23,964
Miss Elkins,

723
01:01:24,165 --> 01:01:25,499
now these people got their own way of doing things.

724
01:01:25,868 --> 01:01:28,869
Well that is a waste of good corn meal if you ask me.

725
01:01:28,870 --> 01:01:32,406
She makes up this porrigly kind of mess I wouldn't

726
01:01:32,407 --> 01:01:34,407
feed it to the pigs.
- Listen!

727
01:01:35,652 --> 01:01:36,862
The soldiers.

728
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:40,407
They're coming back to kill us.

729
01:01:41,850 --> 01:01:43,450
Where's all the men gone to?

730
01:01:50,558 --> 01:01:52,527
That changes the whole picture.

731
01:01:53,728 --> 01:01:57,344
What I'm saying is unions is fine for some things,

732
01:01:57,695 --> 01:02:00,500
but for other things a man's got to go on his own.

733
01:02:02,001 --> 01:02:03,937
Of course that's up to you.

734
01:02:05,807 --> 01:02:07,041
Roscoe...

735
01:02:11,646 --> 01:02:15,983
You make sindacato, you do what the sindacato say.

736
01:02:16,384 --> 01:02:19,153
I listen to Joe.

737
01:02:21,689 --> 01:02:22,791
Few Clothes...

738
01:02:24,792 --> 01:02:26,993
We gonna be shooting white folks, right?

739
01:02:27,794 --> 01:02:29,603
That's the idea.

740
01:02:31,799 --> 01:02:34,401
People hear about black folks shooting white folks,

741
01:02:34,402 --> 01:02:38,171
no matter what it's for, there's going to be hell to pay.

742
01:02:39,607 --> 01:02:41,210
You gotta point.

743
01:02:43,411 --> 01:02:45,046
Well then,

744
01:02:46,347 --> 01:02:48,915
if you gentleman will excuse us...

745
01:03:00,194 --> 01:03:05,793
You people have been put out
of Stone Mountain Mine housing

746
01:03:06,734 --> 01:03:11,872
and some of you have seen fit to take along certain items

747
01:03:12,373 --> 01:03:15,735
of food, furniture and clothing that don't belong to you but

748
01:03:15,776 --> 01:03:17,210
belong to the Company.

749
01:03:21,015 --> 01:03:23,286
As of the day of the strike

750
01:03:23,327 --> 01:03:27,554
your script ceased to be legal tender,

751
01:03:27,755 --> 01:03:30,419
meaning that any item of food, clothing, and furniture

752
01:03:30,460 --> 01:03:33,553
not paid for in cash money

753
01:03:34,494 --> 01:03:37,197
must be turned over to me

754
01:03:37,533 --> 01:03:42,169
and my deputies and I suggest
that you all cooperate.

755
01:03:43,770 --> 01:03:45,739
See, my boys,

756
01:03:46,340 --> 01:03:50,744
they didn't get much sleep last night, so they're kinda jumpy.

757
01:03:52,146 --> 01:03:55,742
Besides we got the law on our side.

758
01:03:55,783 --> 01:03:59,219
- You ain't no law!
You got to slip around the real law!

759
01:03:59,890 --> 01:04:02,022
You just got guns is all.

760
01:04:02,123 --> 01:04:02,803
You just thugs.

761
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:07,894
Yeah, maybe your right, sonny,

762
01:04:07,895 --> 01:04:10,801
we just got guns.

763
01:04:11,002 --> 01:04:13,233
You still got to hand in them goods.

764
01:04:13,534 --> 01:04:15,670
Yellow scab-herder, you!

765
01:04:17,971 --> 01:04:19,830
Hillard, you get up from there.

766
01:04:19,941 --> 01:04:22,209
- You gotta list of goods?

767
01:04:24,505 --> 01:04:25,714
Don't need one.

768
01:04:25,915 --> 01:04:29,083
How you gonna know what belongs
to the company and what don't?

769
01:04:29,984 --> 01:04:31,653
He's the red, Hickey.

770
01:04:33,454 --> 01:04:34,590
He's the agitator.

771
01:04:38,926 --> 01:04:41,662
Everybody, you see,
I don't got a gun on me.

772
01:04:47,635 --> 01:04:52,005
What good do you think that's going to do you, red?

773
01:04:52,306 --> 01:04:55,509
You shoot me folks'll know it was murder.

774
01:04:55,610 --> 01:04:58,945
Well, that's some cold comfort.

775
01:04:59,796 --> 01:05:02,182
Now you listen to me, red...

776
01:05:21,002 --> 01:05:22,636
We was huntin'.

777
01:05:24,473 --> 01:05:27,074
You folks are making an awful lot of commotion.

778
01:05:27,875 --> 01:05:29,243
You scaredt all the game away.

779
01:05:31,312 --> 01:05:32,813
This your machine?

780
01:05:34,383 --> 01:05:36,617
Heard it last night, too.

781
01:05:36,858 --> 01:05:38,807
It's an offense to the ear.

782
01:05:39,128 --> 01:05:41,855
Hold it pops, you're talking to the law here.

783
01:05:43,056 --> 01:05:45,693
He ask you anything?

784
01:05:46,294 --> 01:05:49,596
Where did you get that thing, pal?
Spanish war?

785
01:05:53,301 --> 01:05:54,935
Nope,

786
01:05:55,736 --> 01:05:58,238
war between the states.

787
01:05:58,539 --> 01:06:02,475
You all get in this machine and
get back into town where you belong.

788
01:06:03,476 --> 01:06:07,314
Ain't but one law out here and that's the law of nature.

789
01:06:10,685 --> 01:06:13,104
Let's get the hell out of here.

790
01:06:36,777 --> 01:06:39,646
Folks try and keep the noise down you'll do fine.

791
01:06:40,747 --> 01:06:43,217
Help yourself to the bird and the rabbit.

792
01:06:43,918 --> 01:06:46,851
You see any hogs they probably ours.

793
01:06:46,973 --> 01:06:49,022
We'd appreciate it if you'd leave them be.

794
01:06:50,491 --> 01:06:52,126
Good day to you.

795
01:07:03,170 --> 01:07:04,521
Are you okay, Joe?

796
01:07:04,672 --> 01:07:07,774
Yeah, I'll be all right if it weren't for my ribs.

797
01:07:08,710 --> 01:07:10,210
Who were those people?

798
01:07:10,281 --> 01:07:11,311
- Rossums, mostly,

799
01:07:11,312 --> 01:07:12,881
and a Shuttleworth.

800
01:07:14,682 --> 01:07:16,950
They miners?
- You never find them folks near a hole.

801
01:07:16,951 --> 01:07:19,753
They had most of their land stole by the company.

802
01:07:19,854 --> 01:07:22,289
They's hill people.
- Foothill people really,

803
01:07:22,319 --> 01:07:23,923
your genuine hill people.

804
01:07:23,924 --> 01:07:25,425
They can be dangerous.

805
01:07:35,436 --> 01:07:37,303
Now the thing you gotta remember, son

806
01:07:37,304 --> 01:07:40,206
is your fuse burns 1 foot per minute.

807
01:07:40,207 --> 01:07:42,742
Make it too long, they might see it.

808
01:07:44,743 --> 01:07:46,112
Make it too short,

809
01:08:04,298 --> 01:08:05,031
Damn it.

810
01:08:12,773 --> 01:08:14,802
Air shaft #4.

811
01:08:15,943 --> 01:08:18,278
Go out the back way.

812
01:08:43,671 --> 01:08:46,172
Where is all our
other friends tonight, Miss Elma?

813
01:08:46,373 --> 01:08:48,842
They get tired of the chuck or what?

814
01:08:50,311 --> 01:08:52,813
I think that old bitty went on strike,

815
01:08:52,914 --> 01:08:54,815
laid down her teeth	and protested.

816
01:08:55,216 --> 01:08:57,834
They're just particular about who they eat with.

817
01:08:57,905 --> 01:08:59,285
- What about you, Miss Elma?

818
01:08:59,786 --> 01:09:01,387
Are you particular?

819
01:09:03,591 --> 01:09:05,749
Stone Mountain didn't hold the lease here you two...

820
01:09:05,780 --> 01:09:08,328
Stone Mountain didn't hold lease here you'd be peddling puntang

821
01:09:08,369 --> 01:09:11,698
down in cinder bottom so just shut your mouth about it.

822
01:09:22,843 --> 01:09:25,246
Where's your little preacher tonight?

823
01:09:40,528 --> 01:09:42,995
Bitch got no table manners.

824
01:09:57,244 --> 01:09:58,277
Elma?

825
01:10:04,018 --> 01:10:05,819
You know where Danny is?

826
01:10:06,954 --> 01:10:09,889
No. I don't know where anybody is.

827
01:10:10,090 --> 01:10:12,658
Ain't nobody wants to tell me either.

828
01:10:15,729 --> 01:10:19,432
You okay?
- Yeah just tired is all.

829
01:10:20,835 --> 01:10:23,903
I been working all day.
This place...

830
01:10:26,340 --> 01:10:28,476
I been working...

831
01:10:30,477 --> 01:10:36,182
the day they burned my husband I
started and I been working and it...

832
01:10:36,183 --> 01:10:38,219
It don't never stop.

833
01:10:39,220 --> 01:10:42,255
I get so tired

834
01:10:42,256 --> 01:10:44,424
and

835
01:10:44,425 --> 01:10:47,426
there ain't nobody.
- Look it's hard.

836
01:10:48,312 --> 01:10:50,597
It's hard being on your own.

837
01:10:58,672 --> 01:11:00,274
You don't know nothing about it.

838
01:11:03,410 --> 01:11:05,946
We're in business buddy, let's get going.

839
01:11:15,890 --> 01:11:18,106
What is it?
- Sounds like dynamite

840
01:11:18,137 --> 01:11:21,462
up at the mine.
Might be that #5 shaft.

841
01:11:34,475 --> 01:11:36,976
Might be some shootin'.

842
01:11:40,381 --> 01:11:45,418
Hillard! Hillard!

843
01:11:45,419 --> 01:11:48,688
- You seen my boy?
Anybody seen my boy, Hillard?

844
01:11:49,790 --> 01:11:53,060
That'll be the Baldwins.
			- Hillard!

845
01:12:00,901 --> 01:12:03,436
Anybody seen my Hillard?

846
01:12:47,216 --> 01:12:49,316
- It's Baldwins up the hill!

847
01:12:50,317 --> 01:12:52,285
Shoot low boys!
Cut 'em down!

848
01:13:00,427 --> 01:13:02,999
You fellas get on out of here, I'll hold 'em back.

849
01:13:11,606 --> 01:13:12,706
Reese! Reese, get up!

850
01:13:18,345 --> 01:13:19,880
Sephus, c'mon!

851
01:13:27,254 --> 01:13:29,823
Okay boys, let's spread out, he's here somewhere.

852
01:13:30,124 --> 01:13:32,892
- I got him. He's over here.
- Hold it boys, it's me.

853
01:13:33,393 --> 01:13:35,895
Hold your fire boys, it's C.E.

854
01:13:37,196 --> 01:13:38,565
- You all right?

855
01:13:39,666 --> 01:13:41,868
- You'd better get back to camp.

856
01:13:48,342 --> 01:13:50,111
Judias.

857
01:13:51,512 --> 01:13:53,113
- Hold his leg.

858
01:13:54,114 --> 01:13:56,215
Hold it, hold, hold.

859
01:13:57,484 --> 01:14:00,787
Now I'm just going to pull this back from your leg, boy.

860
01:14:02,022 --> 01:14:04,024
Gimme back that knife, Hillard.

861
01:14:04,825 --> 01:14:06,460
Hey, what happened?

862
01:14:07,161 --> 01:14:10,556
We was sold.
Them Baldwins come up from behind.

863
01:14:10,597 --> 01:14:12,702
Known right where we was laying out.

864
01:14:12,733 --> 01:14:15,302
They know'd when the men was out of camp today, too.

865
01:14:16,203 --> 01:14:18,008
How's she feelin', buddy?

866
01:14:18,639 --> 01:14:21,708
You made it.
I thought we lost you back there.

867
01:14:21,779 --> 01:14:23,342
Well, I got off a couple of rounds...

868
01:14:23,343 --> 01:14:24,777
buried myself in the leaves.

869
01:14:25,578 --> 01:14:27,414
Seen Reese Hadley go down, though.

870
01:14:27,455 --> 01:14:29,182
Sephus get back?

871
01:14:29,683 --> 01:14:31,418
I don't think so.

872
01:14:32,019 --> 01:14:34,053
You see what happens when you pick up a gun!

873
01:14:34,054 --> 01:14:38,658
All I see is them niggers and dagos weren't there tonight and

874
01:14:38,659 --> 01:14:41,160
we was sold and somebody gonna pay.

875
01:14:47,334 --> 01:14:49,505
Something bad is happening out there.

876
01:14:49,536 --> 01:14:50,838
Those guns.

877
01:14:51,139 --> 01:14:52,632
Hunting party, that's all.

878
01:14:52,673 --> 01:14:54,601
Now, where was I?

879
01:14:54,942 --> 01:14:57,977
"time to put all shyness"...

880
01:14:57,978 --> 01:15:01,180
Time to put all shyness aside

881
01:15:03,851 --> 01:15:07,607
and admit to our heartfelt

882
01:15:07,688 --> 01:15:09,990
attraction.

883
01:15:10,491 --> 01:15:12,725
I'm not sure how you spell "attraction".

884
01:15:14,862 --> 01:15:15,928
How about...

885
01:15:16,429 --> 01:15:19,899
"heartfelt desires"?

886
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:22,799
Are you sure you want to do this?

887
01:15:23,070 --> 01:15:26,532
...heartfelt desires,

888
01:15:26,573 --> 01:15:29,109
dearest

889
01:15:30,110 --> 01:15:31,812
Joseph

890
01:15:34,848 --> 01:15:37,250
- Look at that.
Just acovered with gore.

891
01:15:37,551 --> 01:15:38,851
Dogs didn't do all that.

892
01:15:41,655 --> 01:15:43,222
Are you drawing breath, son?

893
01:15:43,723 --> 01:15:47,094
Baldwins, we were sold...

894
01:15:47,895 --> 01:15:48,794
- What's your name?

895
01:15:49,305 --> 01:15:51,063
Bosephus...

896
01:15:51,864 --> 01:15:54,067
Sephus Purcell.

897
01:15:54,668 --> 01:15:56,203
Kin to Nimrod Purcell?

898
01:15:58,204 --> 01:15:59,805
That's daddy's uncle.

899
01:16:01,074 --> 01:16:03,072
Say some Baldwin agents took ya?

900
01:16:05,145 --> 01:16:06,913
From behind.

901
01:16:07,214 --> 01:16:10,716
None of them Purcells ever was too bright.

902
01:16:11,852 --> 01:16:14,921
Grab his ankles missus and mind your dress.

903
01:16:14,922 --> 01:16:17,056
He's ableedin' like a stuck pig.

904
01:16:28,302 --> 01:16:30,670
I found 'em boys, he's here.

905
01:16:35,742 --> 01:16:37,077
- It's Reese.

906
01:16:47,054 --> 01:16:48,721
Got yourself a martyr.

907
01:16:51,158 --> 01:16:53,359
I tried to stop this.

908
01:16:55,329 --> 01:16:57,297
See any sign of Sephus?

909
01:16:59,099 --> 01:17:01,968
We'll maybe smell him before we see him.

910
01:17:08,375 --> 01:17:09,802
They found somebody?

911
01:17:09,843 --> 01:17:12,846
Just stay right here, honey, don't want to look at that mess.

912
01:17:13,347 --> 01:17:15,481
But, I got somethin for Mr. Kenehan.

913
01:17:17,150 --> 01:17:19,619
I don't think he's in no mood to be bothered right now.

914
01:17:20,220 --> 01:17:21,554
I'll see he gets it.

915
01:17:24,201 --> 01:17:25,425
Who is it?

916
01:17:25,726 --> 01:17:30,262
Oh, just some poor miner whose troubles is finally over.

917
01:17:31,732 --> 01:17:33,009
Don't look, honey.

918
01:17:35,168 --> 01:17:39,272
I talked to Ellix.
He says your phonograph machine

919
01:17:39,273 --> 01:17:42,075
is going to be fixed in a couple days now.

920
01:17:42,876 --> 01:17:45,178
It's awful nice of you to do, Everett.

921
01:17:45,779 --> 01:17:49,515
Well, we got to take care of
our favorite lady now, don't we?

922
01:17:51,185 --> 01:17:53,256
- You been so generous...

923
01:17:53,293 --> 01:17:55,882
thinking about me when that Mr. Kenehan

924
01:17:55,923 --> 01:17:58,423
got you all so busy with the union.

925
01:18:00,494 --> 01:18:02,798
That Mr. Kenehan is what I come
to talk to you about, Bridey.

926
01:18:05,832 --> 01:18:10,102
I got a suspicion he might not be what he says he is.

927
01:18:11,003 --> 01:18:12,371
What do you mean?

928
01:18:17,711 --> 01:18:19,178
Bridey,

929
01:18:19,579 --> 01:18:22,581
did you send Kenehan some sort of letter?

930
01:18:48,842 --> 01:18:49,976
What do you want?

931
01:18:51,845 --> 01:18:53,613
No.

932
01:18:53,914 --> 01:18:55,882
He wouldn't.

933
01:18:56,283 --> 01:18:59,418
There's a whole crowd of fellas standing around him,

934
01:18:59,619 --> 01:19:01,904
I seen Kenehan laughing and waving that letter.

935
01:19:01,955 --> 01:19:03,926
So, I

936
01:19:03,957 --> 01:19:06,325
come over to see what was so funny.

937
01:19:07,761 --> 01:19:10,163
A lot of fellers?

938
01:19:13,633 --> 01:19:16,168
You mind if i have another drink, honey?

939
01:19:18,538 --> 01:19:20,639
It ain't pretty what I gotta say.

940
01:19:33,086 --> 01:19:35,251
He said some things, Bridey...

941
01:19:35,288 --> 01:19:40,293
"She been following me around ever since I got here.

942
01:19:40,494 --> 01:19:44,363
"Trailing after me like a dog in heat.

943
01:19:44,464 --> 01:19:47,293
"Sniffing around my legs like a brood bitch.

944
01:19:47,334 --> 01:19:50,659
"She don't wear no drawers", he says, "so she can be ready for

945
01:19:50,690 --> 01:19:52,665
whatever stumbles down the pathway."

946
01:19:52,706 --> 01:19:54,440
He didn't!

947
01:19:59,613 --> 01:20:01,414
He didn't!

948
01:20:03,817 --> 01:20:06,986
He said you done it with one of the coloreds.

949
01:20:08,522 --> 01:20:10,323
Lying bastard!

950
01:20:10,524 --> 01:20:11,657
Bridey,

951
01:20:11,826 --> 01:20:14,393
I think it might be worse than that.

952
01:20:15,194 --> 01:20:17,757
I think he might be a spy

953
01:20:17,798 --> 01:20:19,925
in with the coal operators.

954
01:20:20,166 --> 01:20:24,036
Well, he's got the fellas so turned around with all his talk...

955
01:20:26,006 --> 01:20:28,230
I need for you to help me, Bridey,

956
01:20:28,251 --> 01:20:31,744
and sometimes you gotta tell a little bit of a lie

957
01:20:31,845 --> 01:20:35,114
just to get the truth across.

958
01:20:36,416 --> 01:20:38,381
We fight them with guns

959
01:20:38,418 --> 01:20:40,019
we lose.

960
01:20:41,521 --> 01:20:43,355
That's the whole damn story.

961
01:20:44,925 --> 01:20:47,720
I'm not going to bullshit you fellas and tell you there won't

962
01:20:47,761 --> 01:20:50,229
ever come a time when the people that own this state

963
01:20:50,260 --> 01:20:52,134
send the word down to have us all murdered.

964
01:20:52,595 --> 01:20:55,000
But, if we don't stand together now

965
01:20:55,001 --> 01:20:58,938
as workers, we got no hope at all.

966
01:21:14,221 --> 01:21:15,087
Help me up.

967
01:21:15,989 --> 01:21:17,156
You going somewhere?

968
01:21:17,557 --> 01:21:21,760
This is miner's business and you ain't no miner.

969
01:21:23,697 --> 01:21:25,264
You two come along.

970
01:21:37,978 --> 01:21:39,377
So, ah...

971
01:21:40,413 --> 01:21:42,808
last night he comes up here and, uh...

972
01:21:43,649 --> 01:21:46,707
he's all drunk and everything and I says as how

973
01:21:46,753 --> 01:21:49,958
I didn't want to have nothin' to do with him

974
01:21:49,990 --> 01:21:52,989
and I would call some of you fellers

975
01:21:54,026 --> 01:21:55,828
for help and

976
01:21:55,829 --> 01:21:58,727
he says that all of you was

977
01:21:59,765 --> 01:22:02,034
taken care of.

978
01:22:03,103 --> 01:22:04,935
Taken care of, huh?

979
01:22:04,971 --> 01:22:09,275
When I seen that there weren't no help I...

980
01:22:11,745 --> 01:22:14,213
He uh, kinda...

981
01:22:16,917 --> 01:22:19,051
forced me, he...

982
01:22:19,234 --> 01:22:21,804
he forced me.

983
01:22:22,055 --> 01:22:24,290
Easy...

984
01:22:26,526 --> 01:22:30,429
- That's okay.
You better hear this first hand.

985
01:22:30,830 --> 01:22:32,832
Go ahead honey, what happened then?

986
01:22:36,603 --> 01:22:39,701
And afterwards he

987
01:22:39,739 --> 01:22:43,709
thrown money on the bed like I were some kind of a whore.

988
01:22:50,216 --> 01:22:51,417
You done just fine, honey.

989
01:22:54,020 --> 01:22:57,496
Now why don't you go sit outside for a minute while we figure out

990
01:22:57,557 --> 01:22:59,325
what we're going to do about this.

991
01:23:11,638 --> 01:23:13,572
So he don't have no sense with women,

992
01:23:13,607 --> 01:23:15,508
so what?

993
01:23:15,709 --> 01:23:18,358
You know how Bridey builds things up.

994
01:23:18,889 --> 01:23:21,181
Take a look at this

995
01:23:21,615 --> 01:23:25,017
that our friend left laying on the floor last night.

996
01:23:33,526 --> 01:23:36,195
Baldwin Felts Agency

997
01:23:41,768 --> 01:23:45,551
What it say?
- It's a death warrant is what,

998
01:23:45,585 --> 01:23:47,773
for Mr. Joseph Kenehan.

999
01:24:33,053 --> 01:24:36,355
So it's goodbye Mr. Kenehan, tonight.

1000
01:24:36,389 --> 01:24:37,424
- Miners?

1001
01:24:38,525 --> 01:24:40,360
How'd you manage that?

1002
01:24:41,061 --> 01:24:43,362
That tramp that goes to meet the passenger train.

1003
01:24:43,563 --> 01:24:46,365
Seems she's got the eye for Kenehan.

1004
01:24:46,566 --> 01:24:50,135
So he put it in her head that Kenehan has been

1005
01:24:50,216 --> 01:24:51,607
bad mouthing her all around town.

1006
01:24:51,648 --> 01:24:55,034
He's got her down there right now crying to the miners

1007
01:24:55,075 --> 01:24:59,645
and... he's got these papers from Bluefield.

1008
01:25:06,086 --> 01:25:08,220
I didn't leave my Colt like this.

1009
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:21,800
You spying little bastard!

1010
01:25:23,203 --> 01:25:24,703
What'd you hear, huh?

1011
01:25:24,704 --> 01:25:26,038
What did you hear?
- Nothin'.

1012
01:25:26,039 --> 01:25:28,040
- Horseshit! 
- Hit him, Bill!

1013
01:25:33,780 --> 01:25:35,382
See this medal?

1014
01:25:36,983 --> 01:25:40,553
You know how I won this, preacher boy, huh?

1015
01:25:41,654 --> 01:25:47,262
I was sitting alone in a ditch in France and this Kraut

1016
01:25:47,293 --> 01:25:49,564
jumps in right next to me

1017
01:25:50,295 --> 01:25:52,534
and I took my bayonet

1018
01:25:52,565 --> 01:25:57,069
and I stuck him right in the face.

1019
01:25:57,790 --> 01:26:00,992
And then another jumps in and I stick him too.

1020
01:26:01,163 --> 01:26:03,509
And another, and another

1021
01:26:03,650 --> 01:26:07,536
and another...
They just kept coming one at a time

1022
01:26:07,587 --> 01:26:09,381
all night long.

1023
01:26:10,750 --> 01:26:13,853
And, a little bit, I got to worried

1024
01:26:13,954 --> 01:26:16,088
that they weren't all dead,

1025
01:26:16,189 --> 01:26:19,691
so I stuck them all again a couple times just to make sure.

1026
01:26:21,394 --> 01:26:23,863
And in the morning

1027
01:26:24,064 --> 01:26:26,898
they said that I was a war hero.

1028
01:26:29,636 --> 01:26:35,007
Well, I'm gonna stay close to you tonight, preacher boy.

1029
01:26:35,608 --> 01:26:40,385
And you let one wrong word fly

1030
01:26:40,446 --> 01:26:43,573
and I'm gonna put one in your skull

1031
01:26:43,616 --> 01:26:46,468
and I'll do the same for your pretty mama.

1032
01:26:48,188 --> 01:26:51,521
You know I ain't lying,
don't ya, boy?

1033
01:26:51,591 --> 01:26:53,806
Yes, sir.

1034
01:26:54,427 --> 01:26:57,453
Man who draws the short straw gets to do the job,

1035
01:26:58,186 --> 01:27:00,766
and word don't travel beyond this room about who it is.

1036
01:27:02,202 --> 01:27:04,286
The rest of us will want a good alibi.

1037
01:27:04,337 --> 01:27:07,766
I figure in that prayer meeting tonight,

1038
01:27:07,807 --> 01:27:10,008
right under the preacher's nose.

1039
01:27:16,249 --> 01:27:18,384
Welcome to the union, son.

1040
01:27:36,669 --> 01:27:37,770
What's the story?

1041
01:27:39,239 --> 01:27:42,574
Ludie heard that the Baldwins was coming after you tonight

1042
01:27:42,609 --> 01:27:47,312
and I'm supposed to stick by you.

1043
01:27:49,215 --> 01:27:51,250
You got the shit detail again, huh?

1044
01:28:16,809 --> 01:28:18,143
You all right, Danny?

1045
01:28:18,544 --> 01:28:20,913
- You got your sermon memorized?

1046
01:28:21,414 --> 01:28:23,832
I bet he don't know any more scripture than I do.

1047
01:28:23,883 --> 01:28:26,718
And that ain't a whole hell of a lot, is it, Griggsy?

1048
01:28:27,319 --> 01:28:28,957
You know any?

1049
01:28:28,988 --> 01:28:33,503
I never got no further then,
"In the beginning was the word..."

1050
01:28:33,834 --> 01:28:36,629
Guess we both doomed to the hot place.

1051
01:28:39,065 --> 01:28:42,871
Lord relies on little shits like this one to spread His word,

1052
01:28:42,902 --> 01:28:44,603
I don't want no truck with heaven.

1053
01:28:44,904 --> 01:28:50,142
And, as for hell, well, we been to West Virginia!

1054
01:29:54,907 --> 01:29:57,109
Ahhh!

1055
01:30:02,983 --> 01:30:06,251
- What in god's name you doin', son?
I just got your leaks

1056
01:30:06,285 --> 01:30:09,421
all stopped and here your trying to bust them open again.

1057
01:30:09,722 --> 01:30:11,964
I got to get down there, they got to know.

1058
01:30:11,991 --> 01:30:15,328
You ain't goin' nowheres unless it's in a pine box.

1059
01:30:15,361 --> 01:30:16,862
Where's your sense?

1060
01:30:16,863 --> 01:30:18,564
I got to...

1061
01:30:23,536 --> 01:30:25,971
- I wish those fellas'd get here.

1062
01:30:26,172 --> 01:30:27,213
Huh?

1063
01:30:28,247 --> 01:30:31,011
If they're comin' I wish they'd hurry up.

1064
01:30:31,112 --> 01:30:33,313
I don't want any more shootin' in the woods.

1065
01:30:40,086 --> 01:30:42,054
You ever use one of those?

1066
01:30:46,633 --> 01:30:48,459
10th Cavalry,

1067
01:30:48,995 --> 01:30:52,264
in Cuba, back in '98.

1068
01:30:53,298 --> 01:30:54,867
San Juan Hill.

1069
01:30:57,036 --> 01:30:59,237
Pretty rough down there?

1070
01:31:00,940 --> 01:31:02,374
Did what I had to.

1071
01:31:06,112 --> 01:31:08,447
Is it true you're a red?

1072
01:31:11,918 --> 01:31:14,687
Yeah, I suppose it is.

1073
01:31:15,388 --> 01:31:17,289
Then how come you don't carry a gun?

1074
01:31:19,058 --> 01:31:22,164
Well, we carry little round bombs.

1075
01:31:22,195 --> 01:31:24,330
Don't you read the papers?

1076
01:31:36,208 --> 01:31:38,911
I want to tell you tonight about the blackness

1077
01:31:39,112 --> 01:31:40,846
in the heart of man.

1078
01:31:41,047 --> 01:31:44,583
Gonna warn you about the many and devious ways in which satan

1079
01:31:44,624 --> 01:31:47,045
will hide from you the truth

1080
01:31:47,086 --> 01:31:49,688
of who your real friends are.

1081
01:31:49,889 --> 01:31:52,390
I'm going to do it with a story from the Patriarchs.

1082
01:31:54,594 --> 01:31:57,315
Now, we all know about Joseph and how out of all Jacob's

1083
01:31:57,348 --> 01:32:00,302
12 children he was the smartest and the smoothest and how

1084
01:32:00,333 --> 01:32:03,158
his brothers got so jealous they pulled off his coat of many colors

1085
01:32:03,189 --> 01:32:05,738
and whooped on him and left him out

1086
01:32:05,774 --> 01:32:07,105
to be sold into slavery.

1087
01:32:08,641 --> 01:32:11,776
But Joseph was not your ordinary fella even for biblical times,

1088
01:32:11,811 --> 01:32:13,378
he had a special way with him.

1089
01:32:13,779 --> 01:32:17,082
A way of looking at the grand scheme of things.

1090
01:32:17,483 --> 01:32:19,955
So when this fella Potiphar bought him for a slave

1091
01:32:19,986 --> 01:32:23,959
Joseph just smiled and vowed he was going to be a good one.

1092
01:32:23,990 --> 01:32:26,228
Making the best of a bad situation

1093
01:32:26,259 --> 01:32:29,161
he put his heart to his work and
was honest and friendly in his dealings

1094
01:32:29,196 --> 01:32:31,853
and before you knew it he was just about running

1095
01:32:31,886 --> 01:32:35,093
Potiphar's households and fields and all his business' for him.

1096
01:32:36,702 --> 01:32:39,971
The only trouble was Potiphar's wife.

1097
01:32:39,972 --> 01:32:42,207
Now she was what you might call a loose woman

1098
01:32:43,208 --> 01:32:46,644
When I was in Leavenworth there was a bunch of Mennonites,

1099
01:32:48,147 --> 01:32:50,516
mainly because they wouldn't fight in the war,

1100
01:32:50,550 --> 01:32:51,551
it's against their religion.

1101
01:32:55,021 --> 01:32:58,323
It's also against their religion to shave their beards or

1102
01:32:58,624 --> 01:33:02,394
wear buttons on their clothes and they was being forced

1103
01:33:02,495 --> 01:33:04,095
to do both by the prison guards.

1104
01:33:08,067 --> 01:33:09,902
So, they refused to work

1105
01:33:11,703 --> 01:33:15,374
and they went on a strike right there in Hell's Half Acre.

1106
01:33:15,975 --> 01:33:18,610
They was handcuffed to the bars of a cell house

1107
01:33:18,651 --> 01:33:21,346
8 hours a day for two full weeks.

1108
01:33:25,251 --> 01:33:29,020
They were put with their arms up, like this,

1109
01:33:30,257 --> 01:33:33,993
so's they had to stand on their toes or those cuffs

1110
01:33:34,034 --> 01:33:35,760
would cut into their wrists.

1111
01:33:40,533 --> 01:33:44,603
Can't nobody stay on their toes 8 hours,

1112
01:33:46,472 --> 01:33:48,711
so pretty soon

1113
01:33:48,741 --> 01:33:52,276
their fingers would start to swell up.

1114
01:33:53,413 --> 01:33:55,781
They turned blue and then

1115
01:33:55,815 --> 01:33:58,048
they'd crack open.

1116
01:33:59,151 --> 01:34:01,419
Blood would run down their arms,

1117
01:34:02,863 --> 01:34:04,626
8 hours a day,

1118
01:34:04,747 --> 01:34:07,025
day after day.

1119
01:34:08,427 --> 01:34:10,295
Still they wouldn't work.

1120
01:34:12,531 --> 01:34:15,377
Still they tore the buttons off their uniforms every time

1121
01:34:15,401 --> 01:34:17,272
they were sewed back on.

1122
01:34:17,303 --> 01:34:20,806
They tore them with their teeth because they're hands

1123
01:34:20,837 --> 01:34:22,574
wouldn't close no more.

1124
01:34:28,648 --> 01:34:31,616
So now I don't claim a thing for myself.

1125
01:34:34,420 --> 01:34:39,557
But them fellas they ain't never lifted a gun in their lives

1126
01:34:42,762 --> 01:34:46,530
and you couldn't find any braver in my book.

1127
01:34:55,107 --> 01:34:57,642
- I wish them fellas would get here.

1128
01:35:01,447 --> 01:35:05,451
Also in Potiphar's employ at this time were a couple of

1129
01:35:05,482 --> 01:35:07,517
spies from one of his enemies.

1130
01:35:08,553 --> 01:35:11,259
Fellas that wanted to bring him down in the world and get their

1131
01:35:11,290 --> 01:35:13,218
hands on his fields and houses.

1132
01:35:13,279 --> 01:35:15,106
They seen the want and lust in Mrs. Potiphar,

1133
01:35:15,157 --> 01:35:17,787
and seen it would be good for their purposes to get shed of

1134
01:35:17,838 --> 01:35:19,121
the young Joseph.

1135
01:35:19,752 --> 01:35:21,801
So they come to Potiphar's wife

1136
01:35:42,088 --> 01:35:44,857
She calls Joseph in and she asks him one more time,

1137
01:35:44,908 --> 01:35:46,071
Joseph will you lie with me?

1138
01:35:46,142 --> 01:35:48,138
And he says, no ma'am I won't.

1139
01:35:48,361 --> 01:35:51,176
And she sets up a ruckus and grabs
a hold of his garment he's wearing

1140
01:35:51,209 --> 01:35:52,897
and rends it in two before he can get clear.

1141
01:35:53,298 --> 01:35:58,040
Potiphar runs in with his guards and she's a-bawling her eyes out

1142
01:35:58,071 --> 01:36:00,422
and shaking like a leaf.
Your servant Joseph, she says,

1143
01:36:00,473 --> 01:36:02,654
he come in here and tried to make me lie with him.

1144
01:36:02,688 --> 01:36:04,669
Only when I called out he fled

1145
01:36:04,713 --> 01:36:06,411
leaving this here garment as evidence.

1146
01:36:06,444 --> 01:36:09,387
And not only that, she says, he's been spying and plotting

1147
01:36:09,448 --> 01:36:12,517
against you with your enemies.
He means to take over here

1148
01:36:12,549 --> 01:36:13,518
and have you killed.

1149
01:36:15,888 --> 01:36:18,490
Potiphar had no reason to misbelieve his wife.

1150
01:36:18,591 --> 01:36:21,593
Joseph was a slave and a foreigner.

1151
01:36:23,529 --> 01:36:27,433
So he gathered up his servants
and household workers and they

1152
01:36:27,474 --> 01:36:30,035
went and slew Joseph dead.

1153
01:36:30,536 --> 01:36:34,299
Cut him from gut to gizzard and left him bleeding in the street.

1154
01:36:34,340 --> 01:36:38,403
And lo they never learned of Mrs. Potiphar's lies and

1155
01:36:38,444 --> 01:36:41,980
went to their maker, unrepentant,
with innocent blood on their hands.

1156
01:36:44,950 --> 01:36:47,318
Draw your own conclusions.

1157
01:37:21,854 --> 01:37:24,155
Gettin' awful late.
- Shhhhh...

1158
01:37:29,929 --> 01:37:31,796
You hear somethin'?

1159
01:37:34,366 --> 01:37:35,500
No, you?

1160
01:37:35,501 --> 01:37:37,018
Yeah I think I did.

1161
01:37:37,269 --> 01:37:39,838
Like somebody moaning.

1162
01:37:40,239 --> 01:37:42,474
Maybe it's the fellas.

1163
01:37:42,875 --> 01:37:45,309
I think we should go out there and have a look.

1164
01:39:03,656 --> 01:39:04,790
Who's that?

1165
01:39:06,548 --> 01:39:08,760
That's... Hillard.

1166
01:39:10,563 --> 01:39:13,197
Meetin' been called off.

1167
01:39:14,901 --> 01:39:18,837
Well, we better get back to camp?

1168
01:39:20,773 --> 01:39:22,008
Wait a minute...

1169
01:39:26,546 --> 01:39:28,947
Well, at least we didn't waste a trip.

1170
01:39:34,354 --> 01:39:38,259
Shouldn't we do something? 
- No way. It won't spread.

1171
01:39:38,290 --> 01:39:39,090
Is C.E. inside?

1172
01:39:39,124 --> 01:39:41,259
No such luck.

1173
01:39:44,997 --> 01:39:47,031
Find that son of a bitch.

1174
01:40:28,641 --> 01:40:32,857
How come they waste more food in one day than a poor worker's

1175
01:40:32,889 --> 01:40:34,812
family has on their table in a week?

1176
01:40:35,313 --> 01:40:39,210
Now let me ask you?
Who's sweat was it

1177
01:40:39,251 --> 01:40:41,065
that went into building those mansions?

1178
01:40:41,098 --> 01:40:44,759
Once they seen how they'd almost done an innocent man

1179
01:40:44,796 --> 01:40:47,125
it was like Joe couldn't say no wrong.

1180
01:40:47,626 --> 01:40:50,528
We moved out into the Mango County then

1181
01:40:50,599 --> 01:40:53,031
spreading the word about the union.

1182
01:40:53,432 --> 01:40:56,501
Spreading like wildfire over to Red Jacket,

1183
01:40:56,552 --> 01:41:00,505
to Ragland and Delbarton all up and down the Tug Fork river

1184
01:41:00,606 --> 01:41:04,208
bringing the union out to all the folks that needed help.

1185
01:41:04,269 --> 01:41:07,179
Putting the spirit into them and trying to shut down

1186
01:41:07,220 --> 01:41:08,847
the whole southwest field.

1187
01:41:09,108 --> 01:41:13,034
... helping themselves to our land
and our labor for too damn long.

1188
01:42:08,207 --> 01:42:12,513
Joe Kenehan said how there was
a new day comin' and sometimes

1189
01:42:12,547 --> 01:42:15,273
I could just about see it.

1190
01:42:15,314 --> 01:42:18,150
But hit were a dangerous living for a union man and you

1191
01:42:18,191 --> 01:42:20,184
didn't dare turn your back.

1192
01:42:23,288 --> 01:42:27,962
It was hard times and it was hungry times, too.

1193
01:42:27,998 --> 01:42:31,029
The union relief was spread thin.
And with the hope of a new day

1194
01:42:31,065 --> 01:42:32,630
you can feed your soul

1195
01:42:32,663 --> 01:42:35,199
but leave your belly rumbling.

1196
01:42:38,804 --> 01:42:40,238
Scoot!

1197
01:42:59,092 --> 01:43:01,677
They crowd us on a boat like animals.

1198
01:43:03,346 --> 01:43:05,139
Then they shoot at us.

1199
01:43:05,515 --> 01:43:06,641
And for what?

1200
01:43:07,558 --> 01:43:09,102
To starve just like in Milan.

1201
01:43:11,103 --> 01:43:12,521
Where have you been?

1202
01:43:14,565 --> 01:43:16,233
Who gave you that?

1203
01:43:17,776 --> 01:43:19,244
Lady?

1204
01:43:21,713 --> 01:43:23,916
Since there's just me and Hillard,

1205
01:43:23,957 --> 01:43:26,064
and you got all these little ones,

1206
01:43:27,105 --> 01:43:28,452
well...

1207
01:43:30,255 --> 01:43:33,358
You know what to do with this?

1208
01:43:33,859 --> 01:43:35,860
Hillard brung it in.

1209
01:43:36,003 --> 01:43:37,004
Rabbit.

1210
01:43:37,796 --> 01:43:38,762
It's for you.

1211
01:43:39,256 --> 01:43:40,257
You're giving it to us?

1212
01:43:40,399 --> 01:43:44,069
I ain't gonna watch no babies go hungry, now here you go on.

1213
01:43:45,770 --> 01:43:48,305
Here is some navy beans

1214
01:43:49,206 --> 01:43:54,388
and these here is ramps.
Now you can cook with these.

1215
01:43:54,446 --> 01:43:57,181
They put a taste in your stew.

1216
01:43:58,401 --> 01:43:59,693
Garlic.

1217
01:44:03,055 --> 01:44:04,189
Anyhow...

1218
01:44:07,118 --> 01:44:08,869
Would you like to sit with us?

1219
01:44:22,241 --> 01:44:24,051
Well, I...

1220
01:44:24,287 --> 01:44:27,479
figure we's all in this together.

1221
01:44:31,717 --> 01:44:34,118
You sure got some pretty babies.

1222
01:44:38,590 --> 01:44:40,705
Who's your favorite pitcher?
- Hod Eller.

1223
01:44:40,736 --> 01:44:42,896
He's from Logan county.

1224
01:44:44,997 --> 01:44:47,165
- You get to play ball much?

1225
01:44:47,766 --> 01:44:49,500
When the mines were open.

1226
01:44:54,873 --> 01:44:56,108
Joe...

1227
01:44:56,909 --> 01:44:58,242
Yeah?

1228
01:44:58,543 --> 01:45:00,378
You ever kill anybody?

1229
01:45:03,515 --> 01:45:05,383
What brought that up?

1230
01:45:06,284 --> 01:45:08,153
Bet Sid has.

1231
01:45:08,604 --> 01:45:10,588
He were in the war.

1232
01:45:13,659 --> 01:45:17,060
All I saw was workers killin' workers

1233
01:45:17,829 --> 01:45:19,611
and there wasn't any point in it.

1234
01:45:19,645 --> 01:45:22,467
They thrown you in jail cause you wouldn't go?

1235
01:45:22,768 --> 01:45:26,364
Them two years kept me from killin' some poor stiff that got

1236
01:45:26,405 --> 01:45:30,107
pushed out on a battlefield by rich folks and politicians,

1237
01:45:31,610 --> 01:45:33,544
and they were worth it.

1238
01:45:41,119 --> 01:45:42,921
It's gettin' dark, Danny.

1239
01:45:45,724 --> 01:45:48,426
You better go get that coal.

1240
01:46:13,185 --> 01:46:16,954
You see there, right there by the railroad trestle?

1241
01:46:17,990 --> 01:46:20,057
That's where Cap Hatfield and his boy Joe Glenn

1242
01:46:20,091 --> 01:46:21,592
killed three men.

1243
01:46:22,441 --> 01:46:24,016
Boy wasn't but 13.

1244
01:46:24,049 --> 01:46:26,064
Used a Winchester.

1245
01:46:29,434 --> 01:46:31,769
You think it hurts much, a bullet?

1246
01:46:33,505 --> 01:46:36,706
Beats dying in a damn coal mine.

1247
01:46:39,311 --> 01:46:42,313
Boy wasn't but 13 year old, Joe Glenn.

1248
01:47:02,267 --> 01:47:04,068
Must be in there.

1249
01:47:04,569 --> 01:47:06,504
He always sleeps with the lights on.

1250
01:47:06,705 --> 01:47:09,073
Just gotta be quiet is all.

1251
01:47:27,092 --> 01:47:30,327
Let's get the little bastards.

1252
01:47:33,465 --> 01:47:35,232
- Over here.

1253
01:47:36,902 --> 01:47:38,736
- Grab him, cut him off.

1254
01:47:45,777 --> 01:47:48,383
- Well, well what we got here?

1255
01:47:49,418 --> 01:47:51,949
Smarts a little don't it boy?

1256
01:47:52,150 --> 01:47:53,819
Hillard, right?

1257
01:47:54,520 --> 01:47:57,857
Now, how about you give us the names of

1258
01:47:57,958 --> 01:48:00,325
your ring leaders up in Logan?

1259
01:48:00,826 --> 01:48:05,029
Give us 5 names boy, that's all,
5 names and we'll let you go.

1260
01:48:05,330 --> 01:48:07,465
That's fair isn't it?
- Never.

1261
01:48:07,866 --> 01:48:09,201
Griggsy...

1262
01:48:12,938 --> 01:48:14,972
Talk to us boy.

1263
01:48:16,441 --> 01:48:19,013
Talk to us!

1264
01:48:19,047 --> 01:48:22,079
I'll rot in hell first.
- Have it your way.

1265
01:48:23,181 --> 01:48:25,816
Mr. Lively.

1266
01:48:45,937 --> 01:48:49,444
Boy, I sentence you to death for the crime of

1267
01:48:49,485 --> 01:48:51,108
stealing Company property

1268
01:48:51,309 --> 01:48:54,079
and being a dirty bolshevist union man.

1269
01:48:55,080 --> 01:48:57,115
You got 10 seconds to talk.

1270
01:49:33,117 --> 01:49:34,251
Talk.

1271
01:49:39,824 --> 01:49:42,994
Whoo, what a smell, Boy dirtied his diapers.

1272
01:49:43,395 --> 01:49:45,030
We want names, son.

1273
01:49:45,931 --> 01:49:46,911
I can't,

1274
01:49:47,042 --> 01:49:49,334
I sworn on a bible.

1275
01:49:49,935 --> 01:49:52,939
Then we're going to have to get down to it son.

1276
01:49:53,435 --> 01:49:54,839
Use the razor.

1277
01:49:55,440 --> 01:49:56,475
Hold him boys.

1278
01:50:01,780 --> 01:50:03,802
Just a little nick, boy.

1279
01:50:10,722 --> 01:50:13,090
Get it off your chest, son.

1280
01:50:15,727 --> 01:50:23,234
Plyant Mount, Bill Mahan, Asa Radnor, J.T. Keadle...

1281
01:50:24,869 --> 01:50:28,006
5, give us 5, boy.

1282
01:50:28,807 --> 01:50:29,907
And Harley Shilton.

1283
01:50:30,508 --> 01:50:32,109
- Kill him.
NO!

1284
01:50:54,065 --> 01:50:56,301
So where do them fellas he named live?

1285
01:50:56,802 --> 01:50:57,969
Clay Hill.

1286
01:50:58,370 --> 01:51:00,237
Where's that?

1287
01:51:00,738 --> 01:51:02,841
It's a cemetery.

1288
01:51:03,842 --> 01:51:05,944
Them are all fellas that was

1289
01:51:05,985 --> 01:51:08,245
killed in a gas fire 5-6 years ago.

1290
01:51:20,258 --> 01:51:23,664
Nothin' like a young boy dyin'

1291
01:51:23,695 --> 01:51:25,863
to stir things up.

1292
01:52:14,779 --> 01:52:17,581
Baldwin's coming into town tomorrow, Kenehan.

1293
01:52:49,614 --> 01:52:52,353
You fellas have any idea what's waiting for us?

1294
01:52:53,384 --> 01:52:55,185
You mean they didn't tell you?

1295
01:52:55,220 --> 01:52:56,956
No. I just seen a line in the papers of...

1296
01:52:56,987 --> 01:53:00,287
...'Opportunity for red-blooded American men...

1297
01:53:00,325 --> 01:53:02,252
'Immediate openings, high pay

1298
01:53:02,293 --> 01:53:07,211
'travel, chance for advancement.
Apply Baldwin Felts and

1299
01:53:07,242 --> 01:53:08,549
'write your own ticket.'

1300
01:53:08,600 --> 01:53:11,736
When the natives get restless someplace
they put that out.

1301
01:53:12,600 --> 01:53:15,336
Hook some more cannon fodder.

1302
01:53:16,741 --> 01:53:19,213
Ever hear of the Hatfields and McCoys, son?

1303
01:53:19,244 --> 01:53:20,805
Yeah, of course I have.

1304
01:53:21,046 --> 01:53:23,451
This Matewan is their stomping grounds.

1305
01:53:23,481 --> 01:53:27,384
They'll put a bullet in your brain as soon as they look at ya.

1306
01:53:31,923 --> 01:53:35,106
Sid, we have authorization to put these miners

1307
01:53:35,137 --> 01:53:37,294
off Company property here in town.

1308
01:53:37,395 --> 01:53:38,979
Not from me you don't.

1309
01:53:39,130 --> 01:53:41,135
And we also got a warrant for your arrest,

1310
01:53:41,166 --> 01:53:42,866
you give us any trouble.

1311
01:53:48,239 --> 01:53:51,175
This ain't worth shit and you know it.

1312
01:53:52,777 --> 01:53:55,679
One way or another we're going to carry out these evictions,

1313
01:53:55,710 --> 01:53:56,790
tomorrow morning.

1314
01:53:58,583 --> 01:54:00,551
Gentleman.

1315
01:54:16,034 --> 01:54:18,369
They come to kill me.

1316
01:54:30,482 --> 01:54:34,185
Hillard was my friend.

1317
01:54:34,686 --> 01:54:37,979
When I first come down to the mines it was Hillard who'd

1318
01:54:38,009 --> 01:54:39,803
show me what to do.

1319
01:54:39,844 --> 01:54:43,804
He was a good coal miner, a good union man.

1320
01:54:44,095 --> 01:54:46,864
And he always took care of his mama.

1321
01:54:48,967 --> 01:54:52,703
I don't know how they could have done him like they did.

1322
01:54:55,039 --> 01:54:58,408
All he wanted to do was live decent, that's all.

1323
01:55:00,411 --> 01:55:03,581
Sometimes people say how God willed it, how everything is

1324
01:55:03,632 --> 01:55:05,382
His plan.

1325
01:55:07,820 --> 01:55:12,919
Well... I don't think He planned
on Hillard a'laying here amongst

1326
01:55:12,957 --> 01:55:15,886
all these Elkinses.
Not this young in his life.

1327
01:55:15,927 --> 01:55:19,264
I think all God plans is we get born and we

1328
01:55:19,315 --> 01:55:21,198
got to take it from there.

1329
01:55:22,967 --> 01:55:25,135
So you rest in peace, Hillard.

1330
01:55:26,138 --> 01:55:29,640
You rest easy cause we're going
to take up where you left off.

1331
01:55:34,445 --> 01:55:35,479
Amen.

1332
01:55:43,055 --> 01:55:45,889
You gonna tell us to turn the other cheek, still?

1333
01:55:48,359 --> 01:55:50,692
Shootin' is what they want now.

1334
01:55:51,728 --> 01:55:54,130
Maybe it's what we want, too.

1335
01:55:57,035 --> 01:55:59,636
You expect too much of people, Joe.

1336
01:56:01,739 --> 01:56:05,108
Your still after that one big union, but most of us,

1337
01:56:05,739 --> 01:56:08,312
we can't see past this hollar.

1338
01:57:02,966 --> 01:57:04,902
I need to talk to the men.

1339
01:57:07,138 --> 01:57:09,373
Wouldn't be decent now.

1340
01:57:13,277 --> 01:57:16,179
I'll call a meeting in the morning,

1341
01:57:16,780 --> 01:57:18,709
first thing.

1342
01:58:06,464 --> 01:58:09,067
Pass the word to stay out from town tomorrow.

1343
01:58:10,768 --> 01:58:12,870
Something up?

1344
01:58:15,673 --> 01:58:19,343
Got a feelin'.
You know how white folks is

1345
01:58:19,374 --> 01:58:22,711
when they gets all excited.

1346
01:58:31,022 --> 01:58:32,357
How is she?

1347
01:58:33,066 --> 01:58:35,110
How would you be?

1348
01:58:38,822 --> 01:58:40,907
The company men came today.

1349
01:58:42,242 --> 01:58:44,452
Armed to the teeth.

1350
01:58:46,121 --> 01:58:47,998
God have mercy on us.

1351
01:59:21,172 --> 01:59:23,840
Nothin's gonna bring Hillard back you know.

1352
01:59:26,177 --> 01:59:28,379
Danny, I came here to help.

1353
01:59:29,680 --> 01:59:30,848
Sure you did.

1354
01:59:32,649 --> 01:59:35,284
First people come here to help us with some money.

1355
01:59:36,857 --> 01:59:39,153
Next we know we got no land.

1356
01:59:39,290 --> 01:59:41,829
Then they say they're going to help us with a job and

1357
01:59:41,860 --> 01:59:43,627
a place to live

1358
01:59:43,698 --> 01:59:46,163
and they stick us in some damn coal camp

1359
01:59:46,204 --> 01:59:49,367
and let us dig out their mines.

1360
01:59:49,868 --> 01:59:54,537
Now you come here to help us bring in the 'new day'.

1361
01:59:55,406 --> 01:59:58,809
Well, Hillard ain't gonna see no new day.

1362
01:59:59,610 --> 02:00:02,212
We had about as much help as we can stand.

1363
02:00:03,347 --> 02:00:05,315
We gotta take care of ourselves.

1364
02:00:07,852 --> 02:00:10,320
We got to take care of each other.

1365
02:01:49,520 --> 02:01:53,101
Joe!. Joe! The men go to town.

1366
02:02:05,102 --> 02:02:06,637
See 'em?

1367
02:02:08,973 --> 02:02:11,408
No need for you to be in on this.

1368
02:02:11,976 --> 02:02:16,546
It's my town too, they're my people.

1369
02:03:25,383 --> 02:03:28,213
Y'all have no right to come to this here town with all these people

1370
02:03:28,247 --> 02:03:30,367
and drawing guns and terrorizing them.

1371
02:03:30,408 --> 02:03:32,392
The writs you have are not valid for this town.

1372
02:03:32,427 --> 02:03:35,458
If you can't get one..
- NO!!!!!

1373
02:03:35,559 --> 02:03:36,627
Oh...

1374
02:05:20,231 --> 02:05:22,298
Jesus, don't shoot me.

1375
02:06:36,874 --> 02:06:39,108
I just wanted to talk.

1376
02:06:42,580 --> 02:06:44,681
I just wanted to talk.

1377
02:06:52,299 --> 02:06:54,191
I can't feel my legs.

1378
02:08:06,864 --> 02:08:10,367
There was a trial but there wasn't nobody going to pass

1379
02:08:10,418 --> 02:08:14,107
guilty on Sid Hatfield in Mingo county.

1380
02:08:14,178 --> 02:08:17,407
Sid got married to mayor Testerman's widow

1381
02:08:17,438 --> 02:08:19,322
and then the Baldwins they caught him unarmed

1382
02:08:19,353 --> 02:08:22,745
walking up the steps of the McDowell county court house.

1383
02:08:22,806 --> 02:08:25,118
They shot 15 bullets into him,

1384
02:08:25,149 --> 02:08:29,932
right in broad daylight and C.E. Lively stepped in and put one

1385
02:08:29,965 --> 02:08:31,781
right through his skull.

1386
02:08:31,822 --> 02:08:34,324
Wasn't even a trial on that one.

1387
02:08:34,825 --> 02:08:38,726
That was the start of the great Coalfield War and us miners

1388
02:08:38,762 --> 02:08:41,010
took the worst of it, like Joe said we would.

1389
02:08:41,044 --> 02:08:45,154
'It's just one big union the whole world over',

1390
02:08:45,189 --> 02:08:46,703
as Joe Kenehan used to say.

1391
02:08:46,737 --> 02:08:49,751
And from the day of the Matewan massacre
that's what I preached.

1392
02:08:49,785 --> 02:08:52,208
That was my religion.

1393
02:08:53,709 --> 02:08:57,207
We buried Joe Kenehan with our own.

1394
02:08:57,548 --> 02:08:59,950
My mama she thought he wouldn't never stay,

1395
02:09:00,351 --> 02:09:02,619
but now he's with us for always,

1396
02:09:02,619 --> 01:01:06,748
laying up here in these West Virginia hills.
