so many times.

I don't want another child.

I fathered...

...a dozen children

before you were born.

You have a beautifuI body.

Too beautifuI for bearing children.

Let's keep it like that.

Tomorrow morning,

we're going hunting with the dogs.

I expect you to be there.

No excuses.

Here.

- Good afternoon. What happened?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

- I got lost.

- Well, didn't you get a map?

I got what you gave me but I can't

follow the instructions. You make this?

Rocky can't read them, so-

- I'm kidding.

- Oh, he's only kidding.

Hey, it's a b*tch of a morning.

You want some hot coffee, huh?

Senor Mendez?

- Telephone.

- Who is it?

- Senor Quinones.

- Oh, f*** him.

Tell him I'll call back later.

Oh, son of a b*tch.

I have a politician

who's unable to make a decision.

- You're going to catch cold.

No, I'm fine.

Only whores smoke in public.

Oh, Jay, this is Miryea, my wife.

This is Jay Cochran.

My friend.

Tibey's told me a lot about you.

You probably should hear

my side of the story.

Hi.

Wait. Cesar, will you go up and see if

you can do something about the dogs?

What the hell's so funny?

Twenty thousand dollars American.

So much for pedigrees, huh?

Well, still, this isn't bad.

You grow up on the streets

of Culiacan, you appreciate this.

- No matter where you come from.

It's not the same.

If I had a dog then,

I would have eaten it.

- Oh, Tibey.

- Yeah, damn right I would.

That's what I should do

with these.

Oh, they're fine.

They're just- They're just young.

Yeah, $20,000 worth.

Everything okay with Quinones?

- Is anything ever all right in politics?

I'm sorry, Jay, I- I have to go.

We're not having dinner tonight?

Oh, of course we are.

Jay, you're gonna join us?

- I don't have to.

- Oh, come on, I want you there.

Please, Mr. Cochran.

Tibey's politicaI friends are boring.

She's right.

But the dinner will be short.

And if you don't like anyone,

you just give me the sign and...out.

All right, darling.

See you back at the house.

Bye, Jay.

CanceI everyone for dinner tonight.

Except Ibarra and Diaz.

No, no. K.C., Kansas City, Missouri.

There's also Kansas City, Kansas.

We're from Missouri originally.

But we were working Las Vegas and

that's where we met Porfirio and Cisco.

And you know what?

They offered us a job.

You know CozumeI?

I have a place there, me and Diaz.

The marlin,

a f***ing boatload of marlin.

Excuse me. Understand we come

from the same streets as your husband.

Or hunting. You prefer hunting?

- I have a place in-

- In Merida.

Merida. Anything you want.

Hundred ducks, hundred quaiI.

Anything. Both of you.

I won't shoot a hundred anything.

Oh, that's funny.

Because I thought that you

were from Vietnam.

What happened?

You see no action?

Mr. Cochran is a pilot.

He's known all over the world.

Jets, huh?

Yeah. Something like that.

You know, the biggest thing

that I ever killed...

...was a jaguar.

He stood 9 feet tall,

including the taiI.

You know what I used?

Your car.

That's pretty damn smart.

That's right.

He was sitting in the roadway.

- Will you please excuse us?

- Yes.

We're going to discuss

some business.

Ibarra.

Yeah.

Well, Roxy, Rochelle-

No, no, no.

I'm Roxanne and she's Rochelle.

It was Kansas City, right?

Right.

- Right.

- Excuse me.

- Maybe.

Mr. Cochran.

I'm sure Tibey

would want you to stay.

Do you like swimming?

- Yeah, sure.

- Good.

Maria will show you to the cabana.

- There will be some suits there.

- We're not much into suits.

No?

Do whatever you like.

Hi.

You found one of my favorite books.

It's Lorca's poetry.

I must have it in English.

Over the plain

Through the wind

Black horse, red moon

Death stares at me

From the towers of Cordoba.

Tell me I just blew your mind.

I was stationed in Madrid

for three years.

I wasn't gonna stay anywhere

for three years...

...and not know what people

were saying about me.

Patron, it has not been easy.

I have worked very hard

with these people.

We are very close.

But there is a problem.

What is that?

Well, things are not

what they used to be.

For instance, 200 million pesos

is not what it used to be.

And these people in the union

are smarter than what they used to be.

And there's more of them.

And these people...

...do not respect the name

of Tiburon Mendez.

For them,

it's only a matter of money.

So they took your offer

as an insult.

One more thing.

The American,

though he is your friend...

...he insulted us twice.

That is a separate matter.

Well, how did you meet Tibey?

How did that happen?

Well, I've known Tibey

for as long as I can remember.

He and my father

were in business together.

Tibey rescued him from bankruptcy

and they became close friends.

That's how marriages are arranged

down here.

Did I just blow your mind?

- Yes.

- Yes.

- It's not polite to mimic people.

- Oh, I know.

Well, that's not how it was.

I married Tibey

because I was in love with him.

All my sisters

were in love with him.

Well, it's getting late.

Would you tell Tibey

that I was tired?

Yes.

- Thank you for dinner.

- You're welcome.

You are stupid.

But you are more stupid.

While you try to steaI my money...

...the union accepts an offer

from Mendoza.

Tomorrow...

...there will be an announcement.

It will be an announcement

of support for Mendoza.

You make a long speech...

...about how things have changed.

You think to lecture me...

...in my own house.

You insult my guest.

Maybe you think you're me.

Let's ask stupid.

Do you think he's me?

Patron, if I have offended you-

No, no. Both of you.

But your mistake means nothing.

I can always buy support.

But you have no manners.

It is to you and you...

...that my name means nothing.

You are very smart...

...but not ready to be me.

You want to work for me?

Put up the sound.

What do you think of Quinones?

He's loyaI, but not very smart.

- Where are you going?

- To bed.

No, come here. Come here, please.

Please, sit down.

What's the matter?

I want to ask you something

and I want you to tell me the truth.

Why didn't Cisco

leave the house tonight?

I don't know.

I was on the balcony,

only Porfirio left.

I have no answer.

Maybe he left early.

Tell me the truth, Tibey.

Nothing happened here tonight.

Come on. Come on.

- Hi.

- Hello.

I brought the book. It's for you.

Well, thank you. This will-

This will come in handy.

I don't have anything to read.

Um....

I was gonna take Rocky

for a walk on the beach.

Do you want to come?

- Yes.

- Yeah?

Rock!

Watch this.

- I hate this part.

- What part?

The "not knowing

if he'll do it" part.

Rock, go!

- You like that one?

- Yeah, it's great.

Come on, Rock.

Tibey said that you were married.

I was, once. I'm divorced now.

What happened?

- I'm sorry. You don't have to answer.

- No, I was-

I guess I was married to jets

as much as I was to her.

It wasn't a good way to be living.

Well, you're not

Jim Harrison

James Harrison (December 11, 1937 – March 26, 2016) was an American writer known for his poetry, fiction, reviews, essays about the outdoors, and writings about food. He is best known for his 1979 novella "Legends of the Fall". He has been called "a force of nature", and his work has been compared to that of William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway. Harrison's characters tend to be rural by birth and to have retained some qualities of their agrarian pioneer heritage which explains their sense of rugged intelligence and common sense. They attune themselves to both the natural and the civilized world, surrounded by excesses, but determined to live their lives as well as possible. more…
