00:00Go on, pull the trigger.
00:16If you do, there'll be an oil fire.
00:19You've never seen an oil fire, have you?
00:21It'll wipe out everything you've worked for.
00:30If you do, there'll be an oil fire.
01:00Ladies and gentlemen, San Francisco's most respected wine connoisseur, Mr. Paladin,
01:13has just chosen the Blue Ribbon Award winner.
01:18Tell us which wine you selected.
01:22Mr. Chairman, gentlemen, this is a perfect rism.
01:27Tart, thoroughly dry, light and clean to the taste, with a slight greenish-amber cast of the color.
01:36Let me see, I have the list right here.
01:40The Riesling is the entry of the Donatello Vineyards.
01:43Is Senor Renato Donatello present?
01:52Si, si.
01:55Gracias, gracias.
01:56Gracias, gracias.
01:58Senor Paladin, I cannot tell you what this honor means to me.
02:01I cannot thank you enough.
02:02Yes, you can, by sharing a bottle of your excellent vintage with me.
02:05Well, I would have expected Renato Donatello to be making a Barbera or a Chianti.
02:22Twenty years ago, I came here from Oste, in the old country.
02:26Now I'm an American.
02:27I make many wines.
02:29I drink to your continued success.
02:31Oh, no.
02:32It is all over.
02:34Next year, the poorest peasant will spit my wine up on the ground.
02:38It is for goats to drink.
02:39Well, it's a crime to let anything happen to a wine like this.
02:43Perhaps there's some way I can help.
02:45Oh, no, Senor Paladin.
02:47You are a gentleman, an epicure.
02:50The help I need would be a regiment of carabinieri, or more.
02:55I will need a band of Sicilian cutthroats.
02:58Oh, well, Senor Donatello,
03:01I'm going to have to go and judge the horsemanship trials.
03:05If you should change your mind,
03:07if you should find there's some way that I can help you,
03:09will you leave a word at the judge's stand, please?
03:12Excuse me.
03:28Two things.
03:30Two things at this stage of my life
03:32that ruined what I have been.
03:34A madman and a well.
03:36From a well is to come life, refreshment, water.
03:39From this well comes evil, stink, blackness, and ruin.
03:44Oil is...
03:45This black slime drains unto my land, ruins my vines.
03:49The smoke from the boilers coats my grapes,
03:53and the wine's bitterness will crack the very bottles.
03:56Well, that should just about cover the well.
03:58This madman is cunning.
04:01He's powerful.
04:02He defies me.
04:03He will not pay damages,
04:05and he will not change his ways.
04:07What did you say this fellow's name was?
04:09Gorman.
04:10Tim Gorman.
04:11Irish.
04:12Oh, are the Irish so bad?
04:15What kind of savages would drink whiskey made from potatoes?
04:18Oh, yes.
04:18Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
04:37Come in.
04:38Come in.
04:39Come in.
04:40Renato.
04:41Basta, I miss you.
04:43Basta, basta, we have a guest.
04:45This is Signor Paladin of San Francisco, a great judge of wines.
04:48Look what he gave me, the first prize.
04:50Magnifico.
04:52This is my niece, Teresa.
04:55Benvenuto, Signor Paladin.
04:57You're welcome in this house.
04:59Your uncle neglected to tell me that you're a very attractive woman.
05:03Teresa is also the finest cook this side of Rome.
05:06Today I make a scallopini.
05:08Very nice.
05:09It is waiting for you.
05:12I'll invest it.
05:13Oh, no, no, no, no.
05:13Please, you must eat.
05:15Sit down, Signor Paladin.
05:16I will join you in a moment.
05:17Renato, where are you going?
05:19To get some wine for the scallopini.
05:35Signorina, you're worried about your uncle.
05:38Si, Signor Paladin.
05:39Renato is so upset.
05:43He did this terrible fight with Signor Paladin.
05:45Well, what's your opinion of Paladin?
05:48He is a bad enemy.
05:50But he would be a good friend.
05:53Please, do not tell my uncle.
05:55But today I sent Signor Paladin some scallopini.
05:59It is my finest dish.
06:01Well, it's a very fine piece of it.
06:02The noise we heard was nothing.
06:07Just a bottle exploding.
06:11Signor Paladin, this is last year's wrestling that won the prize.
06:16This is this year.
06:17It tastes like the inside of a chimney.
06:31It tastes like the inside of a chimney.
06:31Ah, Signor Paladin does this.
06:37He shoots my scallopini.
06:51What insult!
06:52I will go up there and crush that savage!
06:56No, you won't.
06:59Now, that's my job.
07:10Come on, now.
07:15All right, cheerless, but weaklings give me a hand with this cheek.
07:21What are you doing?
07:24Get back on your own end.
07:26Come on, move!
07:47Don't stand there and go get those barrels loaded.
07:50I'll take you back.
07:51Sir Norman?
07:52Yeah, that's me.
07:53Who are you?
07:54My name's Peloton.
07:55Sorry I can't shake hands right now.
07:56Well, put the casing down.
07:58How did you get in here I walked in so when do you want shot I could rifle
08:14guards all around the place I noticed what's the reason I'll tell you the
08:18reason how crazy Italians trying to ruin me you look like a good man in a fight
08:23how'd you like to work for me well I'd like that very much except for one thing
08:27what's that well I already worked for that crazy Italian now before we discuss
08:39this there are two things I'd like to make clear he's not crazy and he's an
08:43American all right why don't you show me around looks like a good rig what would
08:49you know about it I was in Texas when the to bowl came in hundred barrels a day
08:57it's a nice rig you've got there only two things wrong with it oh name them the main
09:11drainage ditch the smoke from that boiler waste rains over on Donatello's land the
09:15smoke drifts over and coats his vines the wind takes care of my smoke and gravity
09:20hauls away my waste and in my business what they do with it so now it's my
09:25business and your business is killing not if there's a better way you know any I
09:32think so dig a sump right over there pump the waste over that rise and drain it off
09:40down the opposite side and a 20-foot stack on the boiler would carry the smoke
09:45above a downdraft be carried off harmlessly I could do those things you
09:51said but it would cost money a lot of money I haven't got it every cent I could
09:57beg or borrow went into this well I have to run full blast just the way things are
10:02otherwise I'll go broke lose everything understand perfect if Donatello gets hurt
10:09in the process so much the better he's fought me every step of the way from the
10:13minute I bought the land if I can ruin him that's just fine well personalities
10:19aside it's a crime to ruin a vineyard that produces the finest wine in the
10:22state I never tasted wine when I want to drink I take white mule straight that's a
10:28man's drink that's its virtue but one more question what do you think of Teresa
10:34Donatello she's not the bad-looking woman I kind of liked her don't you try to
10:40poison me that Italian food hits me the wrong way well the scallopini was well
10:45meant I took one taste and it bit me so I figured I better shoot it before it got
10:50loose and ran wild would you shoot an unarmed scallopini I'll shoot anything that
10:58gives me trouble I like you paladin but be careful you could end up looking like that
11:04kettle
11:10you saw the oil well I did the well the boilers the refinery everything good now you can need an attack
11:30I will pass out the guns we will wipe out this manas Renato I'm afraid it's not quite that simple
11:38the vineyards the winery they mean a great deal to you don't they this is my whole life I have no wife
11:46no little ones but I have my mind that I put in the ground with my own hands I make them grow it
11:54water I carry on my own back these are not vats of wine these are years of my life I understand believe
12:03me and I want you to understand Tim Gorman feels exactly the same way about his oil well oh no you
12:12cannot compare my beautiful wine with that black slime I agree but the principles the same the oil
12:19business is here to stay and night raids won't stop it but why who needs this oil some very useful things
12:26come from it oil for the lamp benzene for cleaning very useful things what must I do let myself be ruined
12:36no you must loan Tim Gorman $3,000 never I will cut my throat first senior Paladin you are a fine judge of
12:49wines but nothing else go back to San Francisco and leave me to my battle no when I take a job I see it
12:56through now I have to go into Stockton and see a lawyer about some technical details will you loan me a horse
13:01Oh si and if you do me the favor of not returning you may keep the horse

13:27Ragazzi venite qui voglio parlarvi Open the lock

16:53Everybody get back to the line!
16:58Get back to the rig!
16:59Move!
17:00Keep going now!
17:01Keep going now!
17:07So that's how the big-time gunman acts?
17:09Crawling up to shoot people in the back?
17:11You didn't get shot.
17:12I thought you'd listen to reason.
17:13Otherwise, I would have had to shoot a half a dozen innocent men.
17:17You talk big, Paladin.
17:19But the next time we meet, you better be ready to back it up.
17:22I'll look forward to the occasion.
17:25Good night, Mr. Gorman.
17:26Good night, Mr. Gorman.
17:36Donato, I think you know by now that your move tonight was a foolish one.
17:40Mr. Paladin, I'm a ruined man.
17:41I don't need you to insult me.
17:43Please go away and leave us.
17:45The Gorman can ruin my vineyard as he pleases, but I won't stay here to see it.
17:50Tomorrow, Teresa and I will pack.
17:53We move as soon as the wounded can be taken elsewhere.
17:57Well, tomorrow, if you still feel like moving, I'll help you pack.
18:00In the meantime, tonight, I'd like to use a barrel of your wine.
18:03A whole barrel?
18:05Well, a keg.
18:06A small barrel.
18:07Not the prize reasoning, but something fairly good.
18:09Why not? Nothing matters now.
18:12Here.
18:25Where is Senor Paladin going?
18:27To get drunk, I guess.
18:29You better get back to the man.
18:39Come in.
18:53Good evening.
18:58Oh, I'm sorry to have missed dinner.
18:59Oh, it is not too late, Senor Paladin.
19:02Sit down, please. Eat something.
19:04We cannot, you see.
19:06The lasagna is delicious, but it chokes me.
19:09Well, Renato, if you'll come with me, I think I can show you something that will help your appetite.
19:13What will you show me?
19:14I will show you what the poet Omar Khayyam meant when he said,
19:17The grape with logic absolute shall all the warring tribes confute.
19:21Come on.
19:22Come on.
19:23Come on.
19:24Come on.
19:25Come on.
19:27Come on.
19:29Come on.
19:31This is crazy.
19:33We'll be killed.
19:34Not if you do what I tell you.
19:36We can't get through the lines.
19:38After what happened, Gorman has every man armed and watching.
19:42I know.
19:43I counted on it.
19:45Watch the rise.
19:49What's that dark spot over there?
19:51That's your keg of wine.
20:13They steal my wine.
20:18They're supposed to.
20:20What do we do now?
20:22Now we wait for the wine to lull the red-eyed anger into sleep.
20:26That's Omar Khayyam again.
20:28Is it?
20:30That's Gerald's translation.
20:42I'm so scared.
20:43I'm too scared.
20:44I do now.
20:45I don't have to go much.
20:46I'm too scared.
20:48The wine to the naborn.
20:49I'm too scared.
20:50I'm to die.
20:51I'm so scared.
20:53I'm too scared.
20:54I'm so scared.
20:56See you next?
20:58Oh, my God.
20:59Oh, my God.
21:00I'm a blind person.
21:02Hey, Mom.
21:04I'm so scared.
21:06Yeah, that's always the time.
21:08What's that, sir?
21:09I'm so scared.
21:10Renato, Renato, come down up there, I'll blow a hole through it.
21:40It'll be a big fire if you do, Gorman.
21:44I mean it, Paladin. I'll give you just five seconds.
21:53Time's up. My life's not worth that to you. Now put the gun down.
22:00Good. Go ahead, start the fire.
22:03Not unless I have to.
22:05Well, first I want you both.
22:08Read that. And sign it.
22:11That's an agreement drawn up by the lawyer in Stockton.
22:14It says that you, Renato, will give Gorman $3,000 to build a new drainage setup,
22:19put a sack on that boiler.
22:21In return, you'll get a share of the oil
22:22and a say in how the wells run.
22:25Why should I pay $3,000? Go ahead, start the fire.
22:30You've never seen an oil fire, have you?
22:32I put this torch in there, that oil will bubble up and explode,
22:37and in a few minutes your vineyard will be covered with burning oil.
22:40You'll both be wiped out.
22:43Go ahead, gentlemen.
22:45Take your choice.
22:48With that agreement, you can both operate your businesses profitably.
22:51Otherwise...
22:52Otherwise...
23:01Pardon.
23:07Partner.
23:09Partner.
23:09Kratzio.
23:15Here's to the new partnership.
23:24Let's go to the new partnership.
23:39This wine ain't half bad.
23:41Of course, it don't have the kick of White Mule, but it feels all right.
23:45How do you mean?
23:47I don't know.
23:48When I came in here, I hated everybody.
23:54But now...
24:00I consider my job well done.
24:02I hope you won't forget my fee, Renato.
24:04A case of reasoning delivered into your hotel each year.
24:08I will never forget.
24:09Well, the dinner is almost ready.
24:11Wait till you taste it.
24:13Forget the dinner and wine. I have just the thing, a fine Bordeaux.
24:16Oh, good.
24:20Listen, you've got to get me out of here.
24:22Think of some excuse. You're smart.
24:24Why? What's the trouble?
24:26Teresa's a fine, handsome woman.
24:28But that Italian food she cooks, it scorches my insides.
24:32Oh.
24:33Teresa?
24:39Why don't you show Mr. Gorman your special new dish?
24:43Sirfd Druck.
24:44Here you go...
24:45Why don't you say it, Martin?
24:49What do you say to me?
24:51Anyway, I felt so lonely.
24:52Well, I don't have the reli of my juniors.
24:53What's your stupac?
24:54Hey, Martha?
24:55Oh, there are you.
24:56It's the only تو...
24:58You seem to denominate...
25:00You seem to act as if you join my combative...
25:01Do you think what you should an Oddjorie?
25:04Be a Jungold.
25:05I'll see you later.
