00:00The following footage is from our vault of classics, taken ten years after its release.
00:30♪♪
00:56Say, uh, who is it, you know?
01:00That's what I'm trying to find out.
01:04You don't know, do you?
01:13See, I'm trying to discover who I am.
01:15♪♪
01:44♪♪
02:01♪♪
02:22Now, I'm called O.M. because those were the initials in my clothing when they found me.
02:27It was the only identification that I had.
02:31I have no idea what they stand for.
02:35You don't seem to understand, Mr...
02:37Randall.
02:38Mr. Randall, I don't have any idea about anything.
02:42The doctor that I saw called it amnesia.
02:44That's a loss of memory.
02:47I don't know who I am. I don't know where I come from.
02:50I only know that the people who found me half-dead beside the trail took me with them,
02:54and when they thought I was going to die, they dropped me off at a doctor's at Prescott.
02:59What did you do then?
03:01As soon as I was able, I started going around asking people if they knew me.
03:06Nobody did.
03:07I got worried then, so I started stopping people on the street,
03:11in saloons and restaurants.
03:13Didn't do any good.
03:15I was lost.
03:17I was completely lost.
03:20What did the doctor tell you to do about this, um, amnesia?
03:24Nothing to do.
03:25Except wait, hope.
03:28I got me a job.
03:30I started saving all my money.
03:32A few weeks ago, I had these posters made up.
03:35Started taking them around. This is the fifth town that I've been in.
03:39I figured that someone who'd known me might see one and get in touch.
03:48There isn't much to go on.
03:52Let's go.
03:55You mean...
03:57You mean you'll help me?
03:58Yeah.
03:59I need that $500.
04:06Start with the sheriff.
04:07When you're in this part of the country, they might have word out about you being missing.
04:24Shh.
04:52Recognize this?
04:54Yeah.
04:55Come on.
05:23You ever been to Dead City?
05:24Where?
05:25Dead City.
05:28Where is it, you know?
05:29About a half a day south.
05:30What's happened here?
05:32This, uh, fella took a shot at me.
05:34I shot back.
05:36That's how it happened, all right, Sheriff.
05:37I saw it.
05:38Looked like he was trying to bushwhack you.
05:41What's your name?
05:43Randall.
05:44His name's Puller. You know him?
05:45No.
05:46I don't know you either.
05:48You new around here?
05:49Uh-huh.
05:50Planning on staying?
05:51Nope.
05:52Fine. Get moving.
05:53Yes, sir.
05:57Give me a hand here.
06:04You sure now that Dead City doesn't mean anything to you?
06:09Huh?
06:10Well, I'm sorry.
06:11I'll let you think about it, but that's where we're going.
06:23Oh.
06:25You're supposed to make a can of beer.
06:26We're going today in the morning.
06:27I thought I was leaving.
06:28Yeah, whatever you say.
06:30Pete, I'll go ahead and take the horse
06:32as long as you start building a fire.
06:33All right.
06:45You all right?
06:46I just tripped.
06:48You all right?
06:49I just tripped.
06:51You all right?
06:52I just tripped.
06:56I'm all right.
06:57I'll get that fire started.
07:08Sure you don't want some more coffee?
07:10No, thanks.
07:13About this fella, Puller.
07:15You sure you don't recognize that name, huh?
07:19No.
07:21Maybe when we get to date, I will.
07:25I'd kind of think about that if I were you.
07:29What do you mean?
07:31Well, suppose we find out about you,
07:32who you are, where you're from.
07:33You might not like it.
07:35Look, let's face it.
07:37Puller did recognize you.
07:39He tried to kill you.
07:41It's part of that.
07:46See, I haven't any choice.
07:47I've got to find out.
07:48Do you have any idea what it's like, not knowing?
07:50I keep remembering things, little things,
07:53out of the past.
07:56Amnesia's like that.
07:58I remember a face, or a name, or a photograph.
08:02Sometimes the inside of a room.
08:05Places and things I seem to recognize,
08:08but I can't remember.
08:12There's another reason I've got to find the answer, too.
08:14I have a feeling that there's something that I had to do.
08:18Something...
08:21terribly important.
08:24I've got to find out what it was.
08:29Pretty good at that.
08:31At what?
08:32You'll see.
08:38Suppose you could have done this for a living?
08:41Not that I know of.
08:42That's a pretty professional job.
08:44You might have worked with leather before.
08:54I tell you, I don't remember.
09:01I'm sorry.
09:13I suppose I did fix boots,
09:15sometimes, somewhere, but it doesn't help.
09:18Tell me something.
09:20When you have amnesia like this,
09:22what would happen if you met somebody you knew before?
09:25There's no way of knowing.
09:26I might know them, I might not.
09:30Sometimes, though,
09:32just a little thing will bring your memory back,
09:34like a song, or a photograph, or a name.
09:37That's the trouble, though.
09:39Nobody knows what causes it.
09:42I'm sure of one thing, though.
09:44I'm going to keep looking
09:45until I find the thing that does it for me.
09:49When you find it, I sure hope it's what you want.
10:12Come on.
10:37Well, anything look familiar to you?
10:42I'm sorry.
10:44There's a hotel down the street there.
10:45We'd better get a room and bunk for the night.
10:47Let's go.
11:13Yes, sir.
11:15Good afternoon.
11:16Two rooms for the night, please.
11:18Aye, certainly, sir.
11:20Of course.
11:22Will you please sign the register?
11:24And...
11:26excuse me for a moment.
11:34Come on, let's go.
11:35Why?
11:36I don't know, it just doesn't feel right.
11:38Come on.
11:43One of your men named Nolan McDonald?
11:47That's him, Sheriff, the one on the right.
11:49I remember him.
11:50He signed in here with his friend that night.
11:53I've been here before.
11:55Just once, Mr. McDonald.
11:57The night you killed your partner, Garth Clymer.
11:59Take the gun.
12:04Let's go.
12:13You should remember who Clymer was.
12:15I know the name, that's all.
12:20Well, it's not going to give us much to go on.
12:23Unless I can find out about Puller.
12:25You've done your job and I'll pay you.
12:27I know who I am now.
12:29I know I'm a murderer.
12:32Do you remember killing anybody?
12:34They say I'm a murderer.
12:36I'm a murderer.
12:38I'm a murderer.
12:40I'm a murderer.
12:42You say I did, I don't know.
12:43All right, Randall.
12:49Seems to me, if you killed a man, you'd remember.
13:00I'll be back.
13:09Sorry to hold you like that, Randall, but I had to check.
13:11Do you understand?
13:12Yeah.
13:13Listen, you sure that's his name now?
13:15McDonald.
13:16That's his name.
13:17At least, that's the name he signed at the hotel when he came in last year.
13:20Any idea where he's from?
13:21Nobody knew.
13:23Him and his partner rode in, stowed their gear at the hotel,
13:26then went over to the Silver Indian to do some gambling.
13:30The way I got it later, they both did pretty well.
13:33Left the place with a couple of thousand between them.
13:35Next day, we found Clymer in an alley.
13:38McDonald gone, so was the money.
13:41We put it down as murder.
13:43Got out a poster on McDonald, but never heard anything.
13:51You know a man named Puller?
13:54Puller?
13:55Yeah, seems to me there was a Nat Puller around here for a time. Why?
13:59You know what he did for a living?
14:00Can't say for sure.
14:01Punch cattle, I guess.
14:03Oh, wait a minute.
14:04I did hear he worked some for Blade Thompson over at the Silver Indian.
14:07Hmm?
14:08Silver Indian?
14:09Yeah.
14:12Oh, say, you know where we'll try to get something to eat?
14:16None that isn't poison.
14:17Maggie's not as bad as some across the street.
14:21Much obliged.
15:12You seen Puller around?
15:14I don't know anybody by that name.
15:42Got it.
15:44What?
15:46Two.
15:48Puller takes three.
15:52I'll bet 50.
15:58Say?
16:0150, I'll raise you 100.
16:07100 and...
16:09Well, uh, call.
16:12Ash.
16:13Filled my flush.
16:14Oh, wait.
16:16He had a full house, and I just bought a couple of queens.
16:20That's the third pack in a row you won. I never seen you so lucky.
16:24This must be your big night.
16:28Yeah.
16:29Maybe I, uh, better not press my luck too far.
16:34I guess I better call it a night.
16:37Guess I better call it a night.
17:00There you go.
17:01Have another drink, celebrate that good luck of yours.
17:03Well, thanks.
17:06Tell me something.
17:08What did you quit for when you were so hot?
17:10You're new in town.
17:12Yeah?
17:14Well, I ain't saying anything I understand, but, uh,
17:17some folks claim it's not healthy to be too lucky in this place.
17:22Maybe if you won too much money in here, you might not get out with your winning?
17:26Well, I don't exactly say that, but I...
17:28Well, sir, I didn't say anything like that.
17:32Good night.
17:39Your name Randall?
17:40Uh-huh.
17:41Blade Thompson, I own the Silver Indian.
17:43I understand you were looking for Nat Puller a while ago.
17:46Yeah.
17:47That's very interesting.
17:48I was wondering where he is myself.
17:50Work for you?
17:51No, just a friend.
17:53What a friend he is.
17:54He tried to shoot me and a man named McDonald over a mesquite yesterday.
17:57I killed him.
17:58I see.
18:00I don't suppose you knew you were protecting a murderer.
18:03No, I didn't.
18:04But I understand McDonald's getting his memory back.
18:06He knows he didn't do the murder.
18:08He knows who did.
18:10Glad to have met you, Mr. Thompson.
18:11Thank you.
18:41I wouldn't do that if I were you.
18:57There's been enough killing already.
19:00What are you talking about?
19:01Gart Clamor.
19:02Now get down off that boat.
19:04Don't shoot.
19:05I didn't kill anybody.
19:06It was, it was Mayo and Puller.
19:07Take your gun out real easy.
19:08Lay it on the ground.
19:09They won a lot of money that night, playing cards.
19:10When they left, you sent two of your men after them.
19:11They nailed Clamor and you thought they killed McDonald.
19:12Right?
19:13Nobody knows.
19:14That's far enough.
19:15McDonald said only Mayo and Puller.
19:16I'm clear.
19:17I'm clear.
19:18I'm clear.
19:19I'm clear.
19:20I'm clear.
19:21I'm clear.
19:22I'm clear.
19:23I'm clear.
19:24I'm clear.
19:25I'm clear.
19:26I'm clear.
19:27I'm clear.
19:28I'm clear.
19:29I'm clear.
19:30I'm clear.
19:31I'm clear.
19:32I'm clear.
19:33I'm clear.
19:34I'm clear.
19:35I'm clear.
19:36I'm clear.
19:37I'm clear.
19:38Let me go.
19:39I'll make it worth your while.
19:40Yeah.
19:41We're late for that.
19:42All right.
19:43Bring him in.
19:44Let's go.
19:45No harm done, I guess.
19:46But you can see how it looked to us.
19:47Your friend dead.
19:48You gone.
19:49Sure.
19:50Anyway, you're clean now.
19:51No harm done, I guess, but you can see how it looked to us.
19:55Your friend dead, you gone.
19:59Sure.
20:00Anyway, you're clean now.
20:03Right back where I started.
20:05I thought that when we found out who tried to kill me, we'd know the rest of it.
20:09Now we know what happened. We're not one step closer to who I am.
20:14What do you want to do now?
20:16Like I said, keep looking.
20:18Oh, by the way,
20:20the Clamor's belongings.
20:23We didn't know where to send them, but since you're his friend,
20:26maybe you'd like to take them with you.
20:28I wouldn't know where to take...
20:31That belt.
20:34It's Gott's.
20:36I remember.
20:39It's all kind of fuzzy, but it's there and it's coming back, all of it.
20:43I don't know why, but when I saw Gott's belt, suddenly I knew.
20:47I made this for him in my shop.
20:49And I gave it to him just before we started out here.
20:54The Preston Farm is near here, isn't it?
20:56Little Preston's Place?
20:57Yes.
20:58About three miles south of here.
20:59Little place near the creek crossing. You can't miss it.
21:00That's it.
21:03You want to come with me?
21:04I reckon.
21:18You recognize it?
21:20I've never been here before.
21:38Yes, can I...
21:41Oh.
21:42It's me, Lil.
21:46Thank you.
21:47Thank you, Dad.
21:53Oh, and those posters, they said...
21:54Yes, I know.
21:55It's going to be all right.
22:00This is my friend, Josh Randall.
22:02How do you do?
22:03We'll tell you all about it.
22:12I met Lilith just a little over a year ago in Philadelphia.
22:16She was back there visiting her relatives.
22:18Cream of sugar, Mr. Randall?
22:19No, ma'am.
22:21We fell in love.
22:23And I decided to come out here and live.
22:26Owen's family was very much against it.
22:30You see, I'd been married before.
22:33The worldly widow from the West sort of thing.
22:37I stayed behind to settle up my business affairs, sell my leather craft shop.
22:41Then a friend of mine, Gart Clymer, and I headed west.
22:46We almost made it.
22:49Lilith, when you find out what happened, try and get in touch with the authorities?
22:52No.
22:54Well, I knew Owen was innocent.
22:56I thought, well, perhaps he returned to the East.
23:00And if they didn't know where he was, I wasn't going to tell them.
23:17Mr. Randall, must you go?
23:19No.
23:21Probably be a pretty good idea, though.
23:23Well, Josh, I'll never be able to thank you enough, but...
23:28Here's what I promised you, at least.
23:34I'll see you in church.
