All right.

I can't tell you twins apart.

Now what do you say?

And whatever your name is,

take a good look around.

Captain.

The Painted Lady.

Gid-up.

Gimme that glass.

Come on.

Captain?

Aye?

Aye, mates.

Howdy, sir.

State your business.

Same as yours.

Running from the law.

You are alone?

Yeah. Mexican dragoons've been breathing

down my neck for the last week.

Why?

Oh, they say I got a few trinkets

in my saddlebag...

...don't rightly belong to me.

Like what?

Oh, some silver.

And some of the prettiest green stones

you ever saw.

Don't know what they are.

Emeralds.

- Shh.

Stranger, you're not welcome

aboard my ship.

Well.

Then I best keep riding.

Oh, if then dragoons turn up,

I'd be mighty grateful...

...if you point them in the wrong direction.

Wait a minute, mister.

What can you do?

I'm a rotten cook.

You can't be any worse than ours.

Come on aboard.

Much obliged.

I get my gear.

Whoa.

Why you-

Killed your own man.

Ahhhhh.

You like soup?

It better be good.

Ahhhh.

Go on, finish me, you scum.

I have no cause to shoot a fellow captain.

Velvet, the captain's coat.

Here's your coat, Admiral.

The world is yours, Captain.

And you can have my horse.

You'll pay for this.

May he rest in peace.

Pieces.

Come on.

Come on, come on.

Hey, Rooster.

What do you got there, Rooster?

Get her, Rooster.

A bit too much for you, Rooster.

I'm gonna be real thirsty.

Well, I'm glad it ain't me.

Haul away.

Haul away.

Hoist the flag.

Hooray.

Rum.

Stand about.

Watch out for fire.

Gold.

Gold.

Scalawag. Scalawag. Scalawag. Scalawag.

Divvying up of the gold.

Little Dick tried to take more than the rest,

so they put them back down in the hold.

Yes they did. They put

him back down the hold.

And he ain't gonna grow very old.

There you go. There you go.

Yes you know when your number's up,

you go.

Drink your whiskey. Drink your rum.

If your chances ever come.

But you know when your number's up,

you go.

Yes you know when your number's up,

you go.

There you go. There you go.

When fate takes your hand,

drink them down while you can.

Because you know

when your number's up, you go.

Yes you know when your number's up,

you go.

She thinks she's a rooster.

She's drunk.

There you go. There you go.

Yes you know when your number's up,

you go.

Get your whiskey. Get your wine.

Get your women in a line.

But you know when your number's up,

you go.

And when they take you up on high.

To that gin house in the sky.

Then you'll know.

That your number's up.

And off away you go.

Because you know when

your number's up, you go go go.

Because you know

when your number's up, you go.

Yo ho ho ho.

Then you know

when your number's up, you go.

Let's get out of here before

the dragoons come down on top of us.

Who blew up my ship?

You sure look funny.

Ah. There's only three of them.

Dragoons don't travel in threes.

Ahh.

Come on.

Get them fast. Heave 'em out.

Yee-ha.

Roundup.

After little burro.

Hey, Peg, the gold? Where's the gold?

Mudhook?

I'm Brimstone.

Whatever your name is.

Run that gold out of here

and slow us down.

And get the dynamite before

we blow this place up.

Aye.

Bury that stuff and make us a map.

Where will we meet?

Vulture's Creek.

And don't lose your sense of direction.

All right. Move them out.

Move them out.

Take this silks along.

You mean you trust him?.

- No.

I'm signing on to my brother's.

You're staying here with us.

Hey.

Hey.

What if one of us gets killed?

I mean what about his share

of that saddlebag gold?

He can't spend it in hell, can he?

I shoot good.

Hee-hee. Ha-ha-ha.

Hee-hee. Ha-ha-ha-ha.

Hee-hee. Hee-hee. Hee-hee.

Are you hit, Peg?

Naw. Only a flesh wound.

Arghhh.

Let's ride. Let's ride.

Sound address.

Let's go. Let it go.

Come on. You're holding us up.

Hey.

Peg broke his leg.

He broke his leg.

Peg broke his leg. Peg broke his leg.

Whoa. Whoa.

99 west.

- 99 west.

Shut up.

25 north.

25 north.

Why didn't you pipe down?

Hey, what's that?

Hey, we can use that donkey.

Hey, Peg.

Hey.

Lookee here, Peg.

I made us a tally sheet.

Tallying what?

I crossed off Crow.

And this here's Banji.

Dutch. Mohawk. And Prairie Plow.

That's only 11 of us to divvy up the gold.

Which is your marker?

Huh?

If someone lets the air out of your sail,

I want to know the right one to cross off.

Ah, you laugh.

Your brother doesn't show up,

I want to see you laugh.

Box canyon.

- Box canyon.

Leave it.

Right here.

Right here.

Me fed.

Where's the gold, men?

Just bury those pretty silks, mate.

Hallow.

Bring that gold.

Oh, why do I have to do this?

Come on.

Under bridge.

- Under bridge.

Don't you ever shut up?

Help Jallop and see if there's

another way out of here.

Hey, Brimstone.

Yeah?

Ain't no other way out of here.

That's good.

Keeping us honest.

That's what they want.

Ya. Hiyo.

I know my brother will turn up.

Hey, give me a chance.

We waited long enough.

I'll give you a chance.

Long knife.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Gold-plated.

Yaw.

Yes.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Come on. Come on.

Yaw.

Yaw.

Hey, Peg.

Peg, the gold.

We gotta find Brimstone.

We'll find him.

We start right now.

Ho-oooo.

You want like a double.

You want the gold, Peg?

You want the gold?

You'll have to take me to hell.

To hell.

Yaw.

Never be a sailor, buddy.

Bye. Best wishes.

Go back.

Bad dog.

It's no use barking through the door.

What you smell now. Another cold cat.

Sent 'em up, mates. I'm paying.

Hey, where'd you come from?

Where's the grog, mates?

You wanna stay with me?

He belongs to me.

Ayyyy.

Let him go.

Call him off.

Call him off before I throttle the both of you.

Down, Beau.

Who's staying here?

Who's staying here?

Who's staying here?

No one. The ship leaves in the morning.

The one-legged man?

Liar.

No, sir. Everyone's left.

Read the will.

Come on, Barfly. Come on.

I got the shivers.

I need another drop of medicine.

Ohh.

Would you like a room, sir?

No.

No, this room will do just fine.

Put the bottle down.

Is that a gun you're pointing?

And I know how to use it.

Well.

And there's a lot more

where that come from.

And it'll buy more than one bottle.

Look at this.

I said put the bottle down.

And take your money and go.

Ma'am, you wouldn't...

...you wouldn't turn me out

in this foul weather, wouldn't you?

Get out.

But my bones is rattling.

I got the shakes.

He does look sick.

Get over to the fire.

I thank you kindly, ma'am.

Oh oh oh oh.

Oh.

That needs taking care of.

I'll clean it first and then make a bandage.

Jamie, you get some towels.

Boy. Boy.

Be a good lad and fetch me a drink.

But my sister won't like it.

Just a - just a swallow.

Please.

All right.

Borracho. Borracho.

What's your parrot's name?

Barfly.

Barfly?

Jamie.

I told you to fetch towels.

Getting him to do something is

like eating soup with a fork.

Pretty girl.

A drink? Set em up, mates. I'm paying.

Hey, uh, did you wish to drink with me?

Kirk Douglas

Kirk Douglas (born Issur Danielovitch, December 9, 1916) is an American actor, producer, director, and author. He is one of the last surviving stars of the film industry's Golden Age. After an impoverished childhood with immigrant parents and six sisters, he had his film debut in The Strange Love of Martha Ivers (1946) with Barbara Stanwyck. Douglas soon developed into a leading box-office star throughout the 1950s and 1960s, known for serious dramas, including westerns and war movies. During his career, he appeared in more than 90 movies. Douglas is known for his explosive acting style. Douglas became an international star through positive reception for his leading role as an unscrupulous boxing hero in Champion (1949), which brought him his first nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor. Other early films include Young Man with a Horn (1950), playing opposite Lauren Bacall and Doris Day; Ace in the Hole opposite Jan Sterling (1951); and Detective Story (1951). He received a second Oscar nomination for his dramatic role in The Bad and the Beautiful (1952), opposite Lana Turner, and his third nomination for portraying Vincent van Gogh in Lust for Life (1956). In 1955, he established Bryna Productions, which began producing films as varied as Paths of Glory (1957) and Spartacus (1960). In those two films, he starred and collaborated with the then relatively unknown director, Stanley Kubrick. Douglas helped break the Hollywood blacklist by having Dalton Trumbo write Spartacus with an official on-screen credit. He produced and starred in Lonely Are the Brave (1962), considered a cult classic, and Seven Days in May (1964), opposite Burt Lancaster, with whom he made seven films. In 1963, he starred in the Broadway play One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, a story he purchased, and which he later gave to his son Michael Douglas, who turned it into an Oscar-winning film. As an actor and philanthropist, Douglas has received three Academy Award nominations, an Oscar for Lifetime Achievement, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. As an author, he has written ten novels and memoirs. Currently, he is No. 17 on the American Film Institute's list of the greatest male screen legends of classic Hollywood cinema, and the highest-ranked living person on the list. After barely surviving a helicopter crash in 1991 and then suffering a stroke in 1996, he has focused on renewing his spiritual and religious life. He lives with his second wife (of 64 years), Anne Buydens, a producer. He turned 100 on December 9, 2016. more…
