LATE PRESIDENT 0F THE U.S. AND ESC0R Now Lincoln belongs to us all...

To all the men who died.

Say goodbye, Jim...

Jim say goodbye.

Goodnight, Jim.

We'd all better say goodnight

Johnny.

Yes?

L want to talk to you.

What about?

You.

Not tonight, Professor...

L got about a million

compositions to correct

l thought the world of yours

is a larger issue.

Compositions to correct...

That's a sublime vocation.

Not very funny, Professor.

You're quite right, Johnny...

It's not a laughing matter

Lincoln got a bullet in the brain...

Our country is still rip apart

l for one take the most hopeful view.

About what?

Lincoln's reconstruction policy

0h, it never got started...

It was too gentle for most people

Johnny.

Galwood

l was just in the neighborhood and

down to railroad station

paying my last tribute to Lincoln

0h, that's wit of you.

Good evening... ladies

l... l just tell you a few minutes

l'll be very brief, Johnny

l intend to run for Congress

l intend to see the rebels south gets

just it deserves.

There's no longer rebels, Galwood

lt's beaten... and it's bleeding now.

You're sentimental, Johnny.

Personally l'm a practical politician.

What do you want from

the sentimentalist?

My election gets lead the big things...

For me, perhaps, the presidency.

And for me?

You name it, Johnny.

Let bygones be bygones...

Forgive and forget.

We each have a war to fight...

You in your way...

Me in mine

Lincoln in his... but now...

Now Lincoln is becoming a useful symbol

and you're going cash in on it

l don't cash in on any man

Johnny, l'm organizing a new party.

Galwood, you always belong

to the same party...

The party of yourself.

Get out.

Well, how do you like that snot now?

Johnny, you're going run against him.

Statesman, that's a splendid notion.

You could do it, Johnny

l always said he'd be a great man

in the family

0h, Johnny, what do you say?

Not me.

Why not you?

You wanna be burying yourself

in the books all your life?

I'm no politician.

Some of the time you call yourself

natural attitude for it...

You and your actor choice...

He spends his days teaching his

half-form-mind children.

So he spends his nights writing a book...

A great book to guide the lost

in the wilderness.

The book that somehow never got written.

Well, what happened to it?

L don't know, but the children got talk.

That makes me wildly happy.

Well, you really wouldn't understand...

You're such an awful teacher

l'm not my student adorable.

You might make a good politician.

Me?

Me?

Why not?

Right now, politics is on your brow

like a high fever.

Hm...

And the fever is mourning.

Yes... if l could now leap out...

Lie out promise to Galwood

best days ever saw in the back

of the train getting out steam

when l'm squatting back in my arms with

a boy lighting fire-crackers under me.

Yes, l'm sorry l was so...

So big mouthed... big mouthed, huh?

Yes.

Goodnight.

Goodnight, Professor.

My dear... perhaps even the presidency.

Goodnight, Johnny.

Goodnight.

Good evening, Nell.

Goodnight, Mom

Johnny, l think you're a great book

is your own life.

Don't spoil it.

What you did just now was very clever...

But it doesn't solve anything.

What are you talking about?

About the Professor... your candidate...

But he's not mine.

Who would you choose?

You.

Please

Johnny, who else could do with?

Who else could help you beat

the bleeding south?

0ne thing about the Professor...

He'll keep his word.

Then he'll out lip and

out lie promise Galwood.

What good he'll do with it?

Nell, l don't want to talk about it.

Why?

Because l want you to do something

that you're capable of doing?

Look... l'm out

l'm not going to run for Congress

Johnny, if you'd only just...

Look... it's final

Johnny, you can't escape responsibility

Nell...

Johnny, whatever you do,

l know you'll do it honorably well.

Goodnight.

Goodnight

l'm sorry, Susana... l talk too much.

Goodnight

Nell

Nell, you still love him, don't you?

We grew up together.

We love Raintree County.

We went everywhere together.

Yes, l still love him

lt's because of me...

Because of me you that can't run

for Congress.

Dear, it's not because of you.

Because l'm sick.

You're not sick... it's just the...

Well, l'd like to stay right here in

Raintree County

0h, l wonder... l wonder things

would be different

better if you 've found your raintree

l bet Nell could have found it for you.

Susana, that was long time ago

that l went looking for the raintree

l'm not even sure l expected to find.

But at least l learned to see

the raintree

lt's not nearly important as

what you find looking for it

l'm happy with what l 've found..-you.

All my life, l 've wanted someone to love

and love me...

Someone whose voice touching my ear

in the night...

Shut out the bad dreams...

Someone who'll always be bound to me...

And out of him... with

such a great barriers

Johnny, don't...

Don't work too late, darling.

Mommy, what are you doing?

Darling

something for Daddy...

It's a surprise.

What's it?

We mustn't tell him

You see l'm going to find the raintree.

For Daddy?

Yes, darling... for Daddy...

Then everything will be alright

l'll find the raintree and

I'll hand it to him gently...

With all my love.

No, darling... l take Jimmy

Jim, darling... someday

when you're older...
