We whip wild animals

when they try to rebel.

That way you'll learn

not to escape again.

Hold this.

You know what this cross means,

don't you? Huh? You Mexican b*tch!

The fire will clean away your sins!

Hey, you!

What cemetery do you come from?

lf you came here to bury

these scoundrels...

...hurry up, and get it done quietly.

l'd rather talk.

From the way you're talking,

it looks like you're in a damn hurry...

...to end up in the casket

you're dragging behind you.

Maybe.

Are you from the North?

l fought for the North.

We don't like those who fought

for the North. This is the South.

l can see that, my brother. l know.

Enough! Forget about this gravedigger.

Let's take care of the woman now.

Taking it out on women

doesn't look good.

What did you say?

lt doesn't matter.

What matters is that

you're about to die.

My name is Django.

As long as you stay with me,

nobody will harm you.

You wouldn't make it very far.

Besides, it's not yet time

to cross that bridge.

For now, my path goes in

the opposite direction.

What's your name?

Maria.

Let's go to the town.

Get me a bed for the girl.

Anything for you, stranger.

But the girl...

No, she can't stay here.

And there are no more rooms,

they are all taken.

Go and see for yourself.

The key to your room.

Give it to me, come on.

Don't worry.

l'll pay for the inconvenience.

l hope that's enough.

Oh, well, thank you!

Look at this!

Go to sleep. You've had

quite an eventful day.

The room is upstairs,

at the end of the hall.

Tomorrow morning

the girl has to leave.

No later than tomorrow morning,

l'm sorry. Understood?

There's no need to hurry my friend.

Bring me something to eat.

Here.

lf you work in the casket business,

you chose well.

There is a lot of work around here.

So far, l've met only a few customers.

The damn war between the Mexicans

and Major Jackson's soldiers...

...reduced the town to this,

as you can see.

A dead town.

And your women?

Do they sleep with the ghosts?

We manage, a bit with the Mexicans,

and a bit with the Major's men.

We want to be at peace

with everybody.

Without being unfair, right?

Well, there is kind of an agreement...

This is a neutral place...

We try very hard to stay alive.

You are new to this place,

young man...

You don't know Major Jackson...

You don't know him, do you?

Stop trying to figure out who l know,

old man.

Don't you want to offer me a drink?

You know, it takes guts to

travel with that girl.

lt means having to face both

the racists and the Mexicans.

l like having to face people.

Oh, really? Well, so much the better.

You know, my colleagues are

afraid of the casket.

lt doesn't scare me.

lt's just like any other job.

ls someone in there?

Someone by the name of Django.

Good day, brother Jonathan.

This is all l was able to scrape together

for this month's share.

Business isn't going well.

ln that case it'll be better

if you talk about this to the Major.

l'm getting a dress to change into.

You know, the Major's men

should be here soon.

Maybe he'll come here himself.

The Major doesn't like the color green.

He goes crazy for red.

Here.

l'll change here.

l'm used to my mirror.

Don't be down. Maybe, if you are nice

to the Major, you can save yourself.

Why don't you dress yourself in red?

Of course, listen to me.

Dress in red, and you'll be safe.

The Major isn't after you.

lt's the Mexicans he can't stand.

He says it's their skin color

that bothers him.

Well, you're really asking for it.

You could have stayed with us.

You wanted to run away and...

...ended up in the hands of Jackson's

worst enemies, the Mexicans.

Why did you run away from them

as well? But, what do you want?

l don't know.

What do you mean, you don't know?

Listen, are you trying to pull my leg?

They'll get rid of your man for sure.

Too bad, he's such

a good-looking fellow.

A deck of cards, please.

He wants a deck of cards.

You like to play with the dead guy,

don't you?

lf you listen to me,

you'll be able to save yourself.

Make yourself as beautiful as possible.

No, thank you. lt wouldn't help.

Damn, that's Jackson having fun.

Some Mexican must have refused

to pay. And so, they let him run...

Terrible!

Go ahead!

Another one.

l'm bored now. You take care of it.

An interesting guy has arrived in town.

They'll be coming here,

and they'll want to have fun.

Come. Lock yourself in,

and don't move.

Major Jackson and his men are coming.

Run, go upstairs.

Good day, Mr. Jackson.

Welcome! Make yourself at home.

Come with me.

Unfortunately, it's not all of it, but,

as soon as l am able to...

l believe you, Nathaniel, l believe you.

A coward never lies,

l know that very well...

...especially when they pay

for their protection.

You'll pay me your share at the fort

when we get there in a week.

ln a week? As you wish.

Thank you, Major, thank you.

Hey, you, come upstairs with me.

l don't want to.

Come on, let's go.

l don't want to. You can't buy me.

lf you don't want to go with him,

you come with me.

She told you she doesn't want to go.

Let her go.

Stop it!

Send away all the girls, Nathaniel.

Let's go girls, go upstairs. You, too.

Man, not again.

A man must be very brave

to talk this way to Ringo.

Brave, or crazy.

Just like the dirty Yankee, who killed

five of my men down at the river.

That must have been some man.

Five men at one time?

That's a job done only by specialists.

The man also took a woman with him.

A harlot who was sold to the Mexicans.

One who betrayed our race.

The war is over, and these things

aren't that way anymore.

l am sorry to contradict you,

but my war never ends, my friend.

You're smart to drag a casket

behind you.

That way you'll be treated with respect.

You'll be buried.

Usually we put the Northern scoundrels

out as poison for the vultures.

l wasn't aware that this racial matter

would also involve the poor vultures.

l thought it concerned

only the Southern pigs.

Men, let's proceed.

We've done enough talking for today.

There is one more bullet.

But, that would be too easy.

How many more men do you have...

...pig?

l asked, how many more men?

Forty.

Good, you pig. Next time let

all forty of them come with you.

lt will be more fun.

l'll be here waiting for you.

Rest assured. We'll return.

You can put things back in order.

But don't use my casket.

l am taking a blanket.

Thank you.

For what?

For what you have done for me.

l didn't do it for you.

Well, then, thank you even if

you didn't do it for me.

You thank too much. Who knows if

it was a good thing that l saved you?

l thank you because, even if

it was just for a few moments...

...you made me feel what it was like

to have a man at my side...

...who would protect me...

...who would love me.

Then we have to make sure that

the illusion is complete.

Brief, but complete.

Why did you let Major Jackson go?

He'll return with his 40 men

and he will kill us all.
