Open Range Page #8

Synopsis: Boss Spearman, Charley Waite, Mose Harrison and Button freegraze their cattle across the vast prairies of the West, sharing a friendship forged by a steadfast code of honor and living a life unencumbered by civilization. When their wayward herd forces them near the small town of Harmonville, the cowboys encounter a corrupt sheriff and kingpin rancher who govern the territory through fear, tyranny and violence. Boss and Charley find themselves inextricably drawn towards an inevitable showdown, as they are forced to defend the freedom and values of a lifestyle that is all too quickly vanishing. Amidst the turmoil, life suddenly takes an unexpected turn for the loner Charley when he meets the beautiful and warm spirited Sue Barlow, a woman who embraces both his heart and his soul.

I've had my disappointments,|Charley.

Well, I'm not gonna be|one of them.

I never thought I'd live|as long as I have, Sue.

I guess living the way I have,|it never really mattered.

But thinking I was never gonna|see you again was maybe...

Was maybe the most awful feeling|I ever had in my life.

I know I can be|a good husband to you.

And I know I ain't|asked you proper.

But I'm asking you now.

Will you marry me, Sue?

Charley.

Yes.

I'll marry you.

And can I kiss you?

I'm gonna give you a thousand|of these before I'm done.

Hey, Charley!

Looks like the doc|changed his mind about you.

Something wrong?

No.|Everything's fine.

I forgot to tell you|I'll have word about the saloon

by the time you get back.

Sounds good.

You take care, now.

Charley.

Sue.

I'll be along.

Saloon?

Told you I was wanting out|of the cattle business.

There's a saloon right back|there just had its owner die.

Hoping you'd be my partner.

I cant afford something like that.

Not even half.

Well let the brains of the outfith|do the thinking.

Sue!

You are coming back, aren't you?

And i will be waiting for you Charles!

Keep nothing private.

I don't want to loose side of the roof tops.
