Raintree County Page #9

Toward...

September the 19th, 1863.

Chucamagua.

Which in maternity language means

'River of Death'

May the 16th, 1864.

Rosaca, Georgia.

Another day of dramatic corps making.

Sniper.

Canasona Mountain

June the 27th, 1864.

The army of the west twisted the rails to

something called 'Simon neckties'

Atlanta

November the 16th, 1864.

The first mortal crack at the south,

summer.

This year army is gonna cut off

all base of operations

as it gonna strike straight into

the heart of the enemy.

And you brothers gonna stick in job and

your job is to knock the

stomach out of this war.

You gonna travel in the army fronts and

the flanks and

you gonna point the way of provisions

the supplies.

You gonna have to leave over the fact and

the lead of the land.

It's gonna be on your own free of

command.

Good.

What's so good about it?

L always say where general put us

alone deads.

Alright.

Ha...

Alright, hold your mouth.

Tell me, 0rvil...

Are you animal, vegetable or mineral?

What's mineral?

0h, there's no time to spare-, how are you,

Johnny, leaving all day.

So you join this play Gov. Lucas huh?

Lucas is the best fighter

in all the world.

The time you're confused ferocity

with ability.

But never mind, Lucas,

if you should get squashed

allowing you with the small

but tasteful twister.

To Johnny Seanacy, in absentia.

Sleeping in a ...grave,

l hear him pray for his loving boy.

Professor, go home.

As a matter of fact, l'm going

l'm going to marry up with Mrs. Lydia Gray.

Now the big chief obstacle

has been removed.

Thinking one day, boy, there're many

a devil as guards of the light.

The home glooms make us always best

l like it

l've been a road runner long enough...

So much for me.

But you, l can't follow...

You're in the rabbles.

We'll be marching to Georgia...

We're free of all command.

Free of all command?

So this is your way of finding Susana

yourself.

Hm... yes.

Well, tost to the union and the reunion.

You see a country swamp

where blinds see water.

It's not easy to find us.

There're only ourselves where we are...

Folks of the north all lost in Atlanta.

Lost an army of 60,000 men...

Please return to owners...

Sign, labeling.

Flash.

Look, Raintree County captured an officer

l entrust myself to the hands

of a gentleman.

Where's your heart?

Take him to the house.

When l get caught, that's what comes

leading my leisure.

Now move... move.

Some war is this?

L 've fought in 6 major engagements...

From Gettysburg to the wilderness...

Never been unhorsed.

And I get captured by two bummers.

That's what leads to my leisure.

You're right, Captain...

I'm ahead to turn you over to the army.

Where's Susana?

Do you know where Susana is?

Susana Seanacy

l'm Johnny Seanacy, l'm her husband.

Do you know where she is?

Do you know where the boy is?

I'm gonna find them

l'm gonna find them.

She... she's gone long time ago.

Don't... go her way.

Come on down

Jimmy?

Daddy

Jimmy.

Daddy.

It's not you!

Jimmy, l don't believe it...

L don't believe it at all.

Captain, when does this war go to end?

L guess can't go on much longer.

We'll see it, John Lee will buy

a long shot.

Suppose old Sherman takes

same career, huh?

Am l right

when somebody will continue

to fight for his general?

Jack, l'll tell you the truth

lt's too sad to know l'd blow

his head off

l never thought if they'd know it.

Now Captain, l didn't.

Mr. Seanacy, where you're taking Jim?

Back to my house...

l'm trying to get him to Atlanta.

You'd better go on a coach car with me...

I'll probably prove myself for.

Probably much better talk to this

ass donkey.

And the war is over, you gonna get

Miss Susana?

Yes.

Don't do this, Mr. Seanacy

l never should have told you

where she was.

You don't know what she was like

when they took her away.

You don't know, Mr. Seanacy...

She is got a sickness.

Nothing...

Not all the loving care in this world

can heal of it

l know Miss Susana...

Me and old George upstairs.

He saved her in that fire...

He carried her through the window.

The smoke in his lungs, has been

poling ever since.

And then she got sick.

She talked most strange

about Henrietta who could be her mother.

She said over and over...

Where she was?

You crazy too?

L delivered Susana.

And from that time on Mrs. Drake

could never take care of her.

So Henrietta had a deal...

They were always together.

Susana wanted Henrietta

to be her mother

0nly she hated the idea of democracy.

Henrietta was... just like me

0nly l know what child is

then the war going on inside her.

Alright, let's move.

Thank you, Patsy

Jack

l believe he breathes bad.

Let's make it quick.

Flash, are you alright?

Flash.

Stay where you are.

You hit?

You need me?

I'd make it settled, the pitch one.

Stay where you are.

We got to get out of here.

You want me to take the kid?

No, l'll take care of him.

Don't wait by my side...

You got to race the run

lt's the only chance for the day...

Prefer two of us.

Alright, let's go.

Hey you... come out.

What's you want, yankee?

Just want to see you still there.

Here you're yet?

Why don't you go and play

somewhere else?

You keep us out of beauty... sleep...

We gonna get you a good loud sleep.

Shame it... you shoot that pretty close.

That isn't friendly, don't get any call.

Comer save yourself.

Not just fast... the longer l am gonna

set free.

Pal, where are you coming?

Well, come on

0h, come on... what are you waiting for?

L come from Raintree County...

L can look at it... here.

Another glorious victory.

Hey, Joey, he's coming your way.

He's dead?

No, lucky dog, war is over for him.

PEACE:

LEE SURRENDERS T0 GRAN Halt.

Mrs. Roman?

Yes

l'm glad... l'm Johnny Seanacy.

This is l told you in my letter,

Mr. Seanacy,

This is not been changed.

Mrs. Seanacy is mentally deranged...

Suicidal.

For the most part, she's normal

up to be rigid.

Women are not very pretty, are they?

They're hungry mostly.

We don't need to be on diet.

We don't even have sanitary.

Even with the war over, we're luck

of everything.

War or peace, nobody cares.

Your wife is normal enough now.

She's in here because l thought

she might like privacy.

Susana, l'm so glad to see you.

You shouldn't have come.

Mrs. Roman said that you 're...

Normal?

L come to love this sound in that wood...

That beautiful holy sound of it

l'm afraid... even in my own happiness

with you here

l'm taking you home with me.

Why?

I've always got in your way.

No, you haven't.

Now you might even find your raintree.

Susana, there's no raintree.

But l think there's...

And l say it over and over again

and l make both of us miserable.

And then you begin to pity me

and l can't accept your pity

l'd rather be alone

l don't pity you... l love you.

That's the foundation to build on.

You don't think the foundation too

wicked after all this time?

We're in an incomplete kind of love...

Johnny
