HIDDEN FACE:

SONOR, MEXICO, 1880

Clean up fast. We have

out before anyone n between.

Care, talk down.

Sure, got everything?

- Yes, and you here?

Look, here comes somebody.

- Good morning, sir.

- Good morning, sir.

Let's go.

Come on, Doc

Come on.

"Come on, Kid.

One-minute.

The girl was

trying to fool me.

Do not hurt me.

They stole everything. They took everything.

Look, there they are!

What?

Does not come with us?

You can please them.

The till later.

Do not drink too much, but is

out of money faster.

Let glory then.

His home is n Mexico?

My home is...

anywhere

where I venture to go.

Then travel a lot?

One can say that.

I go from one city to another.

I carry money to

banks from time to time.

You're

a speck n the eye.

Left?

No, if I may think

I can get him with this.

Yes, close your eyes.

I made the mistake of thinking

he was a gentleman.

Now it might be better

you go.

Please go away.

Very good.

Never leave the bar. Our boss

is always there.

I do not have much chance

to go around.

Find a girl like you.

I'm sorry, m'am.

I just hope...

not too badly of me

when I leave.

Perhaps

a little impulsive.

You can visit me again

if you want.

Did not know how

I feel good.

Stop!

Follow me!

- Dismount and follow me.

- Sure, Captain.

Listen, disassemble.

The final four go behind.

The others follow me.

You, go the other way.

Do nothing.

Wait I say.

Come on, look everywhere.

Search the place!

They are coming.

Exit the window.

Your shoes!

Your shoes!

Underneath the bridge.

My mother gave me this ring

before dying.

It means a lot to me,

Lady, if you can use it.

I could not.

Could not accept that.

Please.

It makes me feel

much better.

It is very beautiful.

I'll be honored to use it.

Thank you.

- Hey Kid. It is there, Kid?

- Yes.

Come, mount his horse.

Come on!

Where's Doc?

- You are dead.

My brilliant.

What?

Sorry, honey.

Maybe next time.

Right?

- Can you handle that?

- Yes.

Take.

There they are!

Hey, Dad, come back here.

Come on!

Take the gold!

Take the gold, fast!

Come on.

Up there!

Where's your rifle?

- I dropped n the path.

Let's go down.

Now stop the fire.

We can not shoot them here.

Will stop them.

The till when, I do not know.

We need to think of something.

And fast.

Now all we have

is that horse.

Better than nothing.

Remember that assault

we did n Colorado?

Not.

I was drunk, killed

one woman and left.

- Been?

- Yes.

That path must have

about 8 km to the canyon.

Not?

Has no path.

If we set up the two

that horse...

he will collapse before

we walk less than 1 km

One of us has to stay here.

And the other has to go look

two young horses.

No chance.

It's better than sitting

waiting to get shot.

Maybe it will work.

- We have no choice.

- Who goes and who stays?

Well..

Let's toss.

With bullet?

If you take the bullet, go.

You will.

I'm here.

I'll see you soon.

- Kid?

- Yes?

Yes, I need it.

Do not walk away now.

I was not thinking

n doing so.

Come on!

"Hey, kid.

- What do you want, boss?

Whose?

- From my father.

"Go call him.

Daddy.

Good morning, sir.

"Well, listen.

- How are you?

Very good.

A either

those two horses?

How may I serve you?

Those two horses.

But I will not sell

those horses because...

cost me a lot of work.

Say, how much?

- How much?

Two hundred-weights.

Two hundred pesos.

Anda, Manuel!

Come on!

Give me that.

Thank you.

Let's get him.

Hello, friend.

He saw a foreigner to come by

too rushed?

Yes, Captain. A man

very bad, and it was there.

And had no shoes.

Without shoes, eh?

The horse is that?

Yes, sir.

And he took one of mine.

He paid him, no?

Yes, sir.

- How much?

Guy Trosper

Guy Trosper (March 27, 1911 – December 19, 1963) was an American screenwriter. He came to prominence in Hollywood because of his scripts for two baseball movies: The Stratton Story in 1949, a big hit for James Stewart, and The Pride of St. Louis in 1952, for which he received an Academy Award nomination. This led him into a highly fertile creative period, during which he wrote the screenplays for Elvis Presley's breakout hit Jailhouse Rock in 1957, the complex western One-Eyed Jacks in 1961, and Birdman of Alcatraz in 1962, which he also produced. Trosper's last screenplay before his premature death was an adaptation of John le Carré's 1963 novel The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. The film was released in 1965; Trosper (posthumously) and co-writer Paul Dehn received a 1966 Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America, for Best Motion Picture Screenplay. more…
