00:00:00My body is aching, but my spirit's learning to fly, I believe in love, though some lies
00:00:23put a hate in my mind.
00:00:26I try not to worry about the confusion in my mind.
00:00:34I'll live my life, my love, I'll live my life.
00:00:42And all of that snow on the White House, I never let it affect my sight.
00:00:50You don't have to be religious to know what isn't right.
00:00:57So I live my life learning to love, trying to give a little more.
00:01:05Cause if you don't believe in love, tell me what, what, what are you living for?
00:01:21Looks like you got quite a load there.
00:01:28Would you like a lift?
00:01:29I ain't got far to go.
00:01:31How far are you going?
00:01:32There's a dirt road.
00:01:33About a mile, I expect.
00:01:35A mile?
00:01:36That's a long way.
00:01:37Come on, I'll give you a ride.
00:01:40Okay.
00:01:41Here, I'll give you a hand.
00:01:44Boy, that thing sure is heavy.
00:01:47What do you got in there?
00:01:49Oh, just flour, saffron, things like that.
00:01:53Here we go.
00:02:05Go ahead, it's all right.
00:02:08Where'd you get those groceries out there in the middle of nowhere?
00:02:11Pensborough.
00:02:12Pensborough?
00:02:14Is that that town I came through a ways back?
00:02:16Yes, sir.
00:02:17Five miles.
00:02:18You mean you carry that stuff all that way?
00:02:20It ain't so far.
00:02:21How old are you?
00:02:23Seven.
00:02:24When I was seven, I wasn't even allowed to cross the street.
00:02:28You're nice.
00:02:29What's your name?
00:02:30James Wheeler.
00:02:31Everybody calls me Jimmy.
00:02:33I got a brother named James.
00:02:34We call James, James.
00:02:36My mother used to call me James.
00:02:38That's good.
00:02:39It's in the Bible, you know.
00:02:40James.
00:02:41Nobody calls him Jimmy.
00:02:43What do they call you?
00:02:44Gilbert.
00:02:45Gilbert Janner.
00:02:46Gilbert?
00:02:48What's this?
00:02:50It's a camera.
00:02:51Now, be careful.
00:02:52Don't put your finger on the lens.
00:02:53Are all these things cameras?
00:02:55Uh-huh.
00:02:56What do you do with them?
00:02:58I take pictures.
00:02:59That's my job.
00:03:00I take pictures, and then I write stories to go along with them.
00:03:03I'm what they call a photojournalist.
00:03:05Hey, there it is.
00:03:06Right up there.
00:03:07On the right.
00:03:13Thanks a lot, Mr. Wheeler.
00:03:15Sure wish you could come and take some pictures of me and my folks sometime.
00:03:19Wait a minute.
00:03:24Okay, smile.
00:03:29There you go.
00:03:30What's this?
00:03:31Just keep watching it.
00:03:36How far down that road do you live?
00:03:38Oh, not more than a mile.
00:03:40Well, do you figure you're going to catch a ride with a neighbor or something like that?
00:03:44Ain't got no neighbors.
00:03:45Hey, what's happening?
00:03:46Just keep watching it.
00:03:48I'll take you home.
00:04:15I thought you said it was a mile, Gilbert.
00:04:17I said or so.
00:04:19Hey, look at this.
00:04:20It's me.
00:04:21Big and white.
00:04:22Where in Petersen is this?
00:04:24It's going to be dark pretty soon, Gilbert.
00:04:26I'm surprised your folks would let you come all this way by yourself.
00:04:31Look out!
00:04:32What?
00:04:34What's that?
00:04:35It's a car.
00:04:36A car?
00:04:37It's a car.
00:04:38It's a car.
00:04:39It's a car.
00:04:40It's a car.
00:04:41It's a car.
00:04:42It's a car.
00:04:44You've come over two miles, Gilbert.
00:04:46There's not even a road anymore.
00:04:48I'd take some shortcuts.
00:04:50I don't think I can drive much further.
00:04:53Your mother's going to be worried sick about you.
00:04:55Ain't got no mom.
00:04:57I'm sorry.
00:05:00It really ain't much further now.
00:05:02Peter, he's my big brother.
00:05:04He knows a better road.
00:05:06It's longer, though.
00:05:07I'm sure if it doesn't rain.
00:05:09If it does, I won't even be able to get the top up.
00:05:11I don't need it.
00:05:12Just go straight ahead.
00:05:14Yeah.
00:05:43Is that what I think it is?
00:05:46That's the creek.
00:05:47Gilbert, nobody puts a road through the middle of a creek.
00:05:50Maybe the road was there first.
00:05:52It's only a few inches deep.
00:05:54Are you sure it's inches, not feet?
00:05:57It only gets high after rain.
00:05:58All creeks do that.
00:06:00Come on, let's go.
00:06:12More to the left.
00:06:20Level off now.
00:06:43Right back on the creek.
00:06:46We're going to beat the rain.
00:07:13Look at her color.
00:07:14This sure is a fine automobile, Mr. Wheeler.
00:07:17It was before that last mile.
00:07:20Come on, get in.
00:07:42Here we are, Gilbert.
00:07:43So do me a favor.
00:07:44Ask your brother to come out here and show me the other road back.
00:07:47Why can't you come in?
00:07:48Just for a little while.
00:07:49It's going to take more than eight.
00:07:51Well.
00:07:52I found a cure like it.
00:07:53I'd like to.
00:07:54I really would.
00:07:55But I'm afraid I can't.
00:07:56I've got to be on my way.
00:07:57Here's probably how I'll bring him in the car.
00:07:59He won't want to show you till after supper.
00:08:01Come on.
00:08:02Come on.
00:08:03Come on.
00:08:04Come on.
00:08:05Come on.
00:08:06Come on.
00:08:07Come on.
00:08:08Come on.
00:08:09Come on.
00:08:10Come on.
00:08:11Come on.
00:08:41Don't move.
00:08:42Don't move.
00:08:58Come on.
00:09:02Come on.
00:09:11This is the family.
00:09:18This is Mr. Wheeler.
00:09:22This here's my brother James, Mr. Wheeler.
00:09:28I told you about him.
00:09:31He's 11.
00:09:32Hello, James.
00:09:33Hello, James.
00:09:35This here's my brother James, Mr. Wheeler.
00:09:38I told you about him.
00:09:39He's 11.
00:09:40Hello, James.
00:09:41Hello, Mr. Wheeler.
00:09:47I really missed you.
00:09:49John Smithty.
00:09:50John.
00:09:55That's Martha.
00:09:57She can't talk.
00:10:02Nice to meet you, Martha.
00:10:03Nice to meet all of you.
00:10:05This ain't all of us.
00:10:07Baby?
00:10:10This here's Baby.
00:10:12Ma died when he was born, so he didn't get no other name.
00:10:16Baby?
00:10:19Gilbert, you go bring Peter.
00:10:22Ma, he's seen us coming.
00:10:24I said go get him.
00:10:26That's all right, John.
00:10:29I saw him pull in.
00:10:34That's Mr. Willow, Peter.
00:10:38John, you want tender livestock?
00:10:43Come on, you know what to do.
00:10:49It was nice to meet you, Peter.
00:10:51Listen, I was wondering if you could show me the road out of here.
00:10:55Martha?
00:10:57Tender Baby's nose. You know he's catching a cold.
00:11:03I figured on having you join us for supper, Mr. Willow.
00:11:07I'd like to. I really would, but I'm afraid I can't.
00:11:13I'd like to have you stay.
00:11:15Driving Gilbert home and all.
00:11:17Well, I appreciate the invitation, but if you'll just show me the road out of here, that'll be thanks enough.
00:11:23Well, if you really gotta go.
00:11:25All right, I'll show you.
00:11:30So long, kids. Be good. Nice to meet you.
00:11:32Bye, Gilbert.
00:11:33Thanks for the ride, Mr. Willow.
00:11:34You bet.
00:11:49Go right at the barn, turn left at the cornfield, and you'll see the road.
00:11:54It's gravel, so the rain won't bother you much.
00:11:57All right, now, I go right at the barn, left at the cornfield.
00:12:00Now, once I get to the road, which way do I go?
00:12:30Oh!
00:12:38Oh!
00:13:01Oh!
00:13:08I just can't believe it. Six thousand miles, not even broken in.
00:13:12You got a telephone?
00:13:14No, sir.
00:13:15Looks like you'll be having supper with us now. We'll spend the night.
00:13:30All right, good. Hold it just like that. Okay.
00:13:33Smile. Hold it.
00:13:40Oh, there it is. It's all taken right there. Just keep your eyes on it.
00:13:47Isn't that neat?
00:13:48There I am.
00:13:55I'm going all the way to California.
00:13:57Uh-huh.
00:13:58License plates say New York.
00:14:00Well, my job takes me a lot of different places. Anywhere there's an interesting story.
00:14:05I read about California and New York. I'll be going there myself someday.
00:14:10New Orleans first, though.
00:14:13Mardi Gras.
00:14:16It sure must be something.
00:14:18Oh, it is. It's very exciting. Big carnival.
00:14:21You been there?
00:14:22Uh-huh.
00:14:23You got pictures?
00:14:24No, not with me.
00:14:26I read about it.
00:14:30Ma was a schoolteacher, you know.
00:14:34She had a lot of books and things.
00:14:40I'd sure like to meet your father.
00:14:44Pa's away.
00:14:47He took some hogs to market.
00:14:50Back on Sunday, I expect.
00:14:52Oh.
00:14:53Rita, take Mr. Wheeler to see Mama.
00:14:58Mama? Gilbert said...
00:15:00Gilbert talks a lot.
00:15:03Don't say nothing.
00:15:07Mr. Wheeler?
00:15:22Mama?
00:15:36Mama, this is Mr. Wheeler. He'll be having supper with us.
00:15:46This is Janet.
00:15:48He don't want supper now, Mama. Baby's getting fuzzy.
00:16:01You can't be the mother of this tribe.
00:16:04They just call me that. I...
00:16:06I don't mind, really. It makes it easier for the little ones.
00:16:11Stepmother? Are you married to their father?
00:16:14I'm really happy that you can stay for supper, Mr. Wheeler.
00:16:17I'm not much of a cook, really, but I... I'm learning.
00:16:22Their mother left a lot of recipes.
00:16:27Look, the windows are nailed shut.
00:16:29And what's a boat doing on that door, on the wrong side?
00:16:32I don't like the children under my feet while I'm cooking.
00:16:45The children say that you're very nice. They... they like you.
00:16:59Peter don't like his supper this late, Mama.
00:17:03Everything's ready for the biscuits. Tell the girls to dish up.
00:17:06Well, it's not really that late, boys. I mean, it's just the time of year.
00:17:09And then there's the rain.
00:17:11But I guess it's early to bed and early to rise on the farm, isn't it?
00:17:14Lots of chores to do. Especially with your father being away.
00:17:19It ain't so bad.
00:17:21It's a lot of fun sometimes, too.
00:17:23Oh, I'm sure it is. I'm sure it is. Particularly when you're young.
00:17:27But then, you know, Peter... Peter doesn't seem to be enjoying it too much.
00:17:30But I guess he'll be going away soon.
00:17:32Oh, no. Paula said the family sticks together.
00:17:35Like in the Bible.
00:17:38Peter told me to show you to the supper table.
00:17:44Now.
00:18:08It's great. God is good.
00:18:11And we thank him for our food.
00:18:14By his hand we must be fed. Give us, Lord, our daily bread.
00:18:18Amen.
00:18:22Gilbert, now you try.
00:18:24It's my turn. It's your turn tomorrow night.
00:18:27Peter, you lost your turn because you hit James last week.
00:18:30Now, do you want to go to your room?
00:18:32Gilbert.
00:18:35God is great. God is good.
00:18:38And we thank him for our food.
00:18:40By his hand we must be fed.
00:18:42Give us, Lord, our daily bread. Amen.
00:18:45I don't want no fries.
00:18:47I ain't got no potatoes.
00:18:53James, you want a pack of corn?
00:18:55Get a bag of beans there.
00:18:58James.
00:19:00Do you have peanuts?
00:19:02Kind of like carrots.
00:19:04Well, they're good for you. Have a few.
00:19:09Marlon, blackberry jelly.
00:19:13Why ain't there no blackberry jelly, Mama?
00:19:16Because he went fishing yesterday instead of collecting the berries.
00:19:20Tomorrow, if the rain lets up, I'll expect two full boxes of big thimbleberries.
00:19:28Maybe Paula...
00:19:31Maybe Mr. Will would like to go with you.
00:19:34You can kind of show him around a little.
00:19:36Hey, that'd be great.
00:19:39I know a patch where they're so big they're dragging the ground.
00:19:42Well, thanks anyway, but I'll be leaving tomorrow as soon as I get a tow truck out here.
00:19:46I figure I can catch a ride into Pinsborough in the morning.
00:19:49Don't you just love ham, sir?
00:19:51What's up, Peter?
00:19:53He butchered a beauty last fall.
00:19:55I bet he weighed in at over 800.
00:19:57He dragged down to almost 5.
00:19:59You like them mashed potatoes, too.
00:20:01We get fresh milk every morning.
00:20:03See how nice and fluffy they are?
00:20:05Buttery, too. Mama turned just this morning.
00:20:08Gilbert, you put them biscuits back.
00:20:10I just wanted...
00:20:11Yeah, I know what you wanted.
00:20:12Now, how many times I got to tell you, them dogs don't get nothing but meat.
00:20:16But they love biscuits better than anything.
00:20:19So they can get fat and soft and lazy.
00:20:23That's all we need around here is a pack of no-account hounds.
00:20:26They ain't no-account. They do anything we tell them.
00:20:28And we're going to keep them that way.
00:20:31Dogs hunting biscuits ain't no good for nothing.
00:20:33Now, you drink your milk.
00:20:37Peter, when's your father coming home?
00:20:50Why don't you just supper, Pa?
00:20:53Both their parents died five years ago.
00:20:57Five years ago?
00:21:01Ma had to have birthed a baby.
00:21:05Pa drank five gallons of his own makings and fell off the roof.
00:21:10Five years ago?
00:21:12But what about the neighbors, the people in town?
00:21:17Come on now, everybody finish up. It's getting late.
00:21:20Come on now, everybody finish up. It's getting on bedtime.
00:21:23Wait a minute. I just can't believe this.
00:21:25Somebody must have known something.
00:21:30Pa didn't want to drink. Nobody came around much.
00:21:34He was a good chap, Pa.
00:21:36Mom used to like him.
00:21:39Right, Peter?
00:21:40You're getting there.
00:21:44What do you do for money?
00:21:46How do you pay the gas bills?
00:21:48And what about your schooling?
00:21:52Their mother was a qualified school teacher and she left instructions for their schooling.
00:21:59There's natural gas on the property and the company gives it to them free for as long as they...
00:22:04We got plenty of money, too.
00:22:06And Pa used to sell whiskey.
00:22:08You're gonna get a switch in Gilbert, buttin' in like that.
00:22:11And I told you to drink your milk.
00:22:13I'm sorry, Peter.
00:22:15All right, Peter, look. Look, I want to get something straight right now.
00:22:19As soon as that tow truck gets out here tomorrow, I'm leaving.
00:22:22I don't know what this mama and papa stuff is about, but I don't like games.
00:22:27And she is not your mother.
00:22:30Just who are you?
00:22:34My name's Caroline Henderson and I'm...
00:22:38Well, it is a game, really.
00:22:41I'm their mama and, uh...
00:22:46...
00:22:50Peter, please tell him.
00:22:53I wish somebody would tell me something that makes sense.
00:22:55Caroline came to help us out, that's all.
00:23:00We was figuring maybe you'd like to help out, too.
00:23:05Youngins need grown-ups.
00:23:07Somebody to teach them.
00:23:10Tell them what to do.
00:23:13Punish them when they need it.
00:23:21If you don't want to...
00:23:25Where's my bag? My camera equipment?
00:23:27I put it all in your room, sir.
00:23:29Upstairs, on the left.
00:23:31Thanks.
00:23:33I'll sit in that room.
00:23:35If you'll stay.
00:23:43Till morning.
00:23:45Then you can take your funny farm and...
00:23:49Good night.
00:23:51Mama.
00:24:12Thanks.
00:24:42Wait a minute. What are you doing?
00:24:47Oh, that's all right. I'm only going to be staying to...
00:25:12Uh-oh.
00:25:43Oh, my God.
00:26:01Glory, glory, hallelujah.
00:26:05Glory, glory, hallelujah.
00:26:09Glory, glory, hallelujah.
00:26:13His truth is marching on.
00:26:17He has shouted for us.
00:26:19That shall never sound retreat.
00:26:21He is lifting up the hearts of men.
00:26:24Before his judgment seat.
00:26:26Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer him.
00:26:28Be jubilant, my feet.
00:26:30Our God is marching on.
00:26:35Glory, glory, hallelujah.
00:26:39Glory, glory, hallelujah.
00:26:52Look.
00:26:53I don't know what's going on around here, and I don't care.
00:26:56But I'm leaving.
00:26:58But you said you'd stay till morning.
00:27:00That was before I got locked in my room.
00:27:02Now, do you want to stay in this menagerie, or do you want to go?
00:27:05Oh, we can't go now.
00:27:07They must have seen you come in here.
00:27:09They're downstairs, singing.
00:27:10Well, Martha can't sing.
00:27:12She's like a cat.
00:27:13She sees and hears everything.
00:27:15Look, they're just a bunch of weird kids with some crazy ideas their father pounded into them.
00:27:19I don't know. Maybe he wanted to protect his bootlegging business.
00:27:23How did you get mixed up in this?
00:27:25I picked up Gilbert just the same way as you did.
00:27:33There's a bunch of clothes in my room.
00:27:35Different sizes and things with different initials on them.
00:27:39We're not the first.
00:27:41There was another man, an older man.
00:27:44One morning he was gone.
00:27:46Peter said he went into the town to get a mechanic, but he never came back.
00:27:50And the car just disappeared.
00:27:54All right, look.
00:27:55We're just a mile and a half from the highway.
00:27:57The rain has slacked off.
00:27:58We are leaving right now.
00:27:59We can't go.
00:28:00Don't you understand?
00:28:01We're prisoners.
00:28:02They're just a bunch of kids.
00:28:04They're eyes and ears for Peter.
00:28:07And the dogs, you heard him, they're trained.
00:28:09A pack of hound dogs?
00:28:13Put it on.
00:28:32I want to do my country tunes with you.
00:28:35John, you guys can do your song.
00:29:01Let freedom come to thee.
00:29:04My native country thee.
00:29:08Land of the noble fleet.
00:29:11Thy name I love.
00:29:14I love thy rocks and rills.
00:29:18Thy woods and temple hills.
00:29:22My heart with rapture thrills.
00:29:25Like that above.
00:29:29Let music swell the breeze.
00:29:32And make of all the trees.
00:29:36Sweet freedom's song.
00:29:39Let mortal tongues awake.
00:29:43Let all life in one take.
00:29:46Let hearts in silence tremble.
00:29:50Let love proclaim.
00:29:53The Father's love to thee.
00:29:57Our prayer of liberty.
00:30:00To thee we sing.
00:30:02Gilbert.
00:30:03Gilbert, you want to sing a song.
00:30:08My country tis of thee.
00:30:12Sweet land of liberty.
00:30:15Proudly I sing.
00:30:18Land where my fathers died.
00:30:22Land of the silver skies.
00:30:26We can't get ten feet from this house.
00:30:29You better get some sleep.
00:30:31In the daylight things will look a lot better.
00:30:33My native country thee.
00:30:36Land of the noble fleet.
00:30:39Good night.
00:30:40Thy name I love.
00:30:43I love thy rocks and rills.
00:30:46Thy woods and temple hills.
00:30:49My heart with rapture thrills.
00:30:52Like that above.
00:30:56Let music swell the breeze.
00:31:00And make of all the trees.
00:31:19I wanted to do it, Peter.
00:31:29I was just getting a good aim.
00:31:30I told you not to mess with guns lest I show you.
00:31:33I pity you.
00:31:40You didn't have to kill him.
00:31:41And I told you not to bring no more bombers into the house.
00:31:43He wouldn't have hurt nobody.
00:31:45I told you he wouldn't stay with old Chewbacca.
00:31:47Somebody must have let him out.
00:31:48Are you teasing him again?
00:31:50I never touched him.
00:31:52Every time I turned my back he was a-pecking on his butt.
00:31:54I did not.
00:31:55You did too.
00:31:56All right.
00:31:57Get out of here.
00:31:59All of you.
00:32:02Take that thing with you.
00:32:11That's right.
00:32:12It don't matter how it got loose.
00:32:16It won't happen again, sir.
00:32:17I can promise you that.
00:32:21No more bombings in the house.
00:32:24Now go to bed.
00:32:25All of you.
00:32:33Good night, Mama.
00:32:36Pa?
00:32:54There are circles to every story
00:32:58And two sides to every side
00:33:05Wish I didn't have to worry
00:33:09About doing what is right
00:33:14I promised to stay with you
00:33:18But now I want to leave
00:33:22And maybe some kind stranger
00:33:26Will keep you company
00:33:34If I'm here in the morning
00:33:38My mind will be on the sea
00:33:44When the sun sets in the evening
00:33:48There's no telling where I'll be
00:33:53I promised to stay with you
00:33:57But now I have to leave
00:34:01And maybe some kind stranger
00:34:05Will keep you company
00:34:11Cause Mama said the day would come
00:34:16When the family would live as one
00:34:20And all the kind strangers
00:34:24Will keep us company
00:34:51Caroline? Gilbert? Peter? Anybody?
00:34:59Jimmy.
00:35:14You sure sleep late. It's almost 8 o'clock.
00:35:18Oh, I've been known to sleep as late as 8.30, 9 o'clock,
00:35:20especially after a night like last night.
00:35:22Caroline, my car is gone.
00:35:25I've got chores.
00:35:27Everyone's had breakfast.
00:35:29I could heat up some biscuits and ham.
00:35:31No, thanks. I'm sorry, but I don't eat before noon.
00:35:34And when my almost brand-new $7,000 car just disappears,
00:35:37I'm preparing to start,
00:35:39I just might lose my appetite altogether.
00:35:41Well, the boys are gonna fix it.
00:35:42They're very handy with machinery.
00:35:51Jimmy, please.
00:35:53That's all right. Just do your chores.
00:35:55I'm sorry. I'm not feeling very gentlemanly this morning.
00:36:12All right, John. Where's my car?
00:36:24Well, good morning.
00:36:26You better get some breakfast in you, Paul.
00:36:28Oh, Peter figured to clear some brush today.
00:36:30John, where is my car?
00:36:32And don't call me Paul.
00:36:36No, boys. Easy. Easy.
00:36:39Well, you better turn me loose, Mr. Willis,
00:36:43and just say something nice and long.
00:36:45Go ahead.
00:36:47Hello, boys. Take it easy now.
00:36:53Now, John, I want you to tell me where my car is,
00:36:55or I'm gonna give you a wallop, and you are not gonna forget,
00:36:57and that is only the beginning.
00:37:00Never try and punish us in front of the dog, sir.
00:37:03Where is Peter, John?
00:37:05Look, it's not right to steal other people's property.
00:37:07Now, look, just tell me where Peter is, and I'll talk to him,
00:37:09and after that, I'll decide whether or not you need a whipping.
00:37:12Oh. Well, he's at the swimming hole.
00:37:16I can't go till I finish old Beth here.
00:37:19She's a great old milking cow.
00:37:21Good for a full bucket, too.
00:37:23Which way to the swimming hole?
00:37:25Around the barn.
00:37:27Through the cornfield, past some trees.
00:37:29Oh, it's over, John. Well, you'll hear him.
00:37:33This is your morning cure, is it?
00:37:35A whoopin' holler time around here.
00:38:03Come on.
00:38:34Come on.
00:38:55You're on it!
00:38:57I got it!
00:39:04You okay?
00:39:06You're on it!
00:39:08I got it!
00:39:10Whoo!
00:39:16Whoo-hoo!
00:39:32All right!
00:39:34Whoo-hoo!
00:39:40Yeah!
00:39:46All right.
00:39:48Everybody out!
00:39:50Right now!
00:39:53Now, I want to know what you've done with my car.
00:39:56And I'm going to be very upset if you fooled around with that motor.
00:39:59We never touched the motor, sir.
00:40:01Peter?
00:40:03Can you swim, sir? The water's nice and warm.
00:40:06Peter, I don't have time to waste swimming.
00:40:08Now, I just want you to take me to my car, and that's all!
00:40:11Yes, sir.
00:40:13James, give me your car.
00:40:15James, give me your car.
00:40:17James, give me your car.
00:40:19James, give me your car.
00:40:21James, give me a hand with the boat.
00:40:37You didn't drag it across the river, did you?
00:40:40Peter, listen, if you've gotten water in that gas tanker...
00:40:48Will this thing float?
00:40:50Get in.
00:41:20Get in.
00:41:40Oh, Peter, look at this thing. It looks like a sieve.
00:41:44My new $60 shoes,
00:41:46cow manure,
00:41:48and a little swamp water.
00:41:50You can keep ahead of it, will you, sir?
00:41:57Tell you something, Peter.
00:41:59If there's anything wrong with that car,
00:42:01if there's any tears to the upholstery, any dents, any scratches,
00:42:04I'm going to report you to my insurance company,
00:42:06the Vandal, Little Bird 18.
00:42:08It's your name that's going to be on their report meter.
00:42:19This is the deepest part here, sir.
00:42:24You kids get on back now. It's dangerous out here.
00:42:49Look, look!
00:43:05Jimmy? Jimmy, are you all right?
00:43:10My car. My car's at the bottom of the creek.
00:43:15What happened?
00:43:17John upset the boat. He did it as a prank.
00:43:20The other children pulled you out.
00:43:22They all swam like fish.
00:43:24I know what they swam like.
00:43:26Must have hit my head.
00:43:28Hey, stay right down.
00:43:30They ran my new car right down to the bottom of the creek.
00:43:33And there was a red one down there and a blue one and a green one.
00:43:37Jimmy, they're going to vote.
00:43:39Vote?
00:43:41Vote?
00:43:42On us. Whether they keep us as parents or not.
00:43:45They're going to vote on us?
00:43:47This is like a bad dream. It's like a joke.
00:43:49If they vote no...
00:43:50Look, you said there were others.
00:43:52They must have voted on them.
00:43:54That explains those cars at the bottom of the creek.
00:43:56They like us. I know they do, and they'll vote yes.
00:43:59If they do, that'll give us the time to think of a way to get out of here.
00:44:02Caroline, I am not going to wait around to go on trial by a bunch of crazy kids.
00:44:07Would you mind getting me a pair of pants?
00:44:09I'm sure my size is in that closet.
00:44:13Where are they now?
00:44:14They're eating.
00:44:16Peter went to cut a willow switch for you to use on John for tipping the boat up.
00:44:19Oh, a willow switch.
00:44:21They want punishment.
00:44:22Well, I don't. I've had enough. I'm getting out of here.
00:44:25Jimmy...
00:44:26Look, I'll make my way to Pensborough and I'll get help.
00:44:29You don't understand.
00:44:31They won't let you go.
00:44:33They'll kill you.
00:44:36Caroline, look.
00:44:38I've survived Vietnam or rotten marriage.
00:44:41I'm indestructible.
00:44:43Now, would you please get me some pants?
00:44:56I'm not going to punish you for spilling the milk, John. I think you know that.
00:44:59That business with the boat was something else.
00:45:02Somebody could have got hurt.
00:45:05You have to learn about jokes like that.
00:45:08Well, I was just funning, sir.
00:45:11There's nothing wrong with that as long as everybody knows you're playing.
00:45:14But that's not the way it happened.
00:45:17Peter, you're going to have to take the dogs off somewhere.
00:45:21They won't make no fuss. I'll see to it.
00:45:24Now, look.
00:45:26I don't want everybody standing around.
00:45:28You wouldn't want it that way if it was your turn.
00:45:32This is just between a father and a son.
00:45:39They could all use a switching.
00:45:41They come near the deep water when I told them not to.
00:45:44We had to help Pa, Peter.
00:45:46I'd have took care of that.
00:45:48Peter, there was cars down there. I'd bet on it.
00:45:51That was junk metal, just like I told you.
00:45:54Pa threw it in there years back.
00:45:56If I catch you swimming near there again,
00:45:59you're going to get something you've never had before.
00:46:02Nobody's going to go swimming.
00:46:04It's too dangerous.
00:46:06Somebody might get a foot caught in that old junk metal.
00:46:12Peter, you're going to have to take the dogs off.
00:46:17Caroline, you and the girls take care of the ironing.
00:46:24Let's go hunting, Peter.
00:46:25The dogs ain't had a real good run in a long time.
00:46:28Peter, if you want to, you could...
00:46:30you could help pull those stumps out.
00:46:32And after you finish, maybe we could go hunting in a couple of days.
00:46:35Aw, come on, Peter. I don't want to dig up no old dog.
00:46:38All right. We'll look up on back of the ridge.
00:46:59All right, John.
00:47:04I want you to go inside that shed,
00:47:06and I want you to think about what you did.
00:47:08Try and figure out why it was wrong.
00:47:13Ain't you going to switch me?
00:47:15I want you to think, John.
00:47:18Sometimes thinking's worse than a switching.
00:47:21Go on.
00:47:28Go on.
00:47:58Go on.
00:48:28Go on.
00:48:58Go on.
00:49:29Go on.
00:49:40Way to whistle. One shot.
00:49:42Next time, it's my turn.
00:49:44Your turn will come soon enough.
00:49:50Here's the beans.
00:49:52Here's the corn.
00:49:54Come on. Come on.
00:49:56Put your food down!
00:49:58I said put your food down!
00:50:04We're not playing games anymore.
00:50:09I've decided to stay.
00:50:12But Caroline's free to go.
00:50:17You want to, Mama?
00:50:20If you stay, Jimmy, I will.
00:50:22Nobody's forcing you to stay.
00:50:26If I'm taking over this family, that's the way it's going to be.
00:50:31There'll be no more locked doors. Is that understood, Peter?
00:50:36Peter?
00:50:37Yes, sir.
00:50:39All right.
00:50:42You've got your parents now.
00:50:46You can finish your supper.
00:50:56Good night.
00:51:27Mama, we cleaned up the supper dishes.
00:51:30Good night.
00:51:33Good night, Peter.
00:51:43Good night, Paul.
00:51:45Good night, Peter.
00:51:56Good night.
00:52:26He'll go in the shed, Peter.
00:52:28No way I used to know he'd take off that way.
00:52:31Don't matter.
00:52:34I should have left a couple dogs.
00:52:37Why don't we vote tonight?
00:52:39If they really want to go.
00:52:42There'll be time enough tomorrow.
00:52:48I didn't lock the doors tonight.
00:52:52But if they try to go off by themselves, the dogs...
00:52:55Remember that big red rooster we had?
00:52:58Ought to have scratched the person's eyes out?
00:53:02Yeah.
00:53:04Well, what happened when we put that rooster in the henhouse
00:53:07instead of keeping him penned in the barn?
00:53:10He got fat and sassy and nice as pie.
00:53:16Let's just take another look at our rooster in the morning.
00:53:20Peter...
00:53:23I don't recollect Paul throwing no junk in the creek.
00:53:26He's too young to remember.
00:53:28Yeah, but it looked like cars.
00:53:31We've all stayed together, ain't we? Like Pa said.
00:53:37Yeah.
00:53:39But...
00:53:41I don't know.
00:53:43I don't know.
00:53:46Yeah.
00:53:48But...
00:53:49I told you it'd be your turn soon.
00:53:52To shoot and all.
00:53:57Well, there's something else.
00:54:00When you're old enough...
00:54:02What, Peter?
00:54:05If we vote no on these two tomorrow,
00:54:09there'll be time enough to tell you.
00:54:12Tell me what, Peter?
00:54:16Good night, John.
00:54:31They didn't lock the doors.
00:54:33It's gotta be a trick.
00:54:34Let's go.
00:54:35But you couldn't make it in the daylight alone.
00:54:38I panicked. It sounded like the dogs were everywhere.
00:54:41It's gonna be worse at night.
00:54:43I've got an idea. Come on.
00:54:55Have we got any more of this stuff?
00:54:57Cornbread?
00:54:58Get it.
00:55:10I don't understand.
00:55:12The dogs.
00:55:14Come on.
00:55:42Come on.
00:56:12Come on.
00:56:42Come on.
00:57:12Come on.
00:57:38Peter makes it all a game.
00:57:40It's everywhere.
00:57:41I know.
00:57:42All right, just keep moving.
00:57:44Keep your eyes open and take your time.
00:58:11Help!
00:58:18Come on.
00:58:31Wait a minute.
00:58:33Listen.
00:58:34They're out.
00:58:36We'll head for the creek.
00:58:38We'll head for the creek.
00:58:39You throw them off.
00:59:08Come on.
00:59:30I can't. I can't go on.
00:59:32Yes, you can.
00:59:33We've got to.
00:59:38Come on.
01:00:08Come on.
01:00:39It wasn't right, Caroline, what you'd done.
01:00:43You lied just like him.
01:00:47That ain't no good way for parents to be.
01:00:50He wanted to get help, Peter.
01:00:54For all of you.
01:00:55We don't need no help.
01:00:56As long as we stay together.
01:00:59He ain't gonna give us no more trouble.
01:01:01He's okay, Annie.
01:01:02He didn't mean nothing bad.
01:01:04Ronnie's fine.
01:01:06I got him tied up real good, Peter.
01:01:11All right.
01:01:14We vote now.
01:01:16Please, Peter, not yet.
01:01:18Let me talk to him.
01:01:20He won't try and run away again.
01:01:22I said we vote now.
01:01:27Yes, he stays.
01:01:29He's our pa.
01:01:30We'll do like he says.
01:01:33No?
01:01:36He goes, just like the others.
01:01:41James?
01:01:43He keeps trying to run away.
01:01:46I vote no.
01:01:51Rita?
01:01:53I like him.
01:01:54I think Caroline's right.
01:01:56I vote yes.
01:01:58It's one yes and one no.
01:02:02Gilbert?
01:02:04I think he'd make a fine pa.
01:02:06I picked him.
01:02:08I vote yes.
01:02:11It's two yes and one no.
01:02:15Baby?
01:02:17Baby can't vote.
01:02:19He doesn't understand.
01:02:21He's family.
01:02:23He voted yes on you, remember?
01:02:25We all did.
01:02:28Baby, do you want Mr. Wheeler to stay or go?
01:02:32Go.
01:02:35It's two and two.
01:02:40John?
01:02:42Don't matter much to me, Peter.
01:02:44Whatever you say.
01:02:49John?
01:02:51You like him.
01:02:53You know you do.
01:02:56He didn't take the switch to you.
01:02:59He made you think.
01:03:01He gave you the chance to figure out right from wrong.
01:03:07Now, this is family, Caroline.
01:03:10I want you to hear it.
01:03:12But you got no right talking.
01:03:14You voted yes on me.
01:03:16You voted me, your mama.
01:03:18Yeah, but that's all different now.
01:03:20After what you'd done.
01:03:23You see, you're with him.
01:03:25You showed us that.
01:03:28So, however the vote goes for him...
01:03:33All right, John's holding back his vote.
01:03:36Martha?
01:03:48Yes, Martha.
01:03:52Don't let Peter send him away.
01:03:55Caroline.
01:04:08All right, that's three yes and two no.
01:04:13Since John's going along with however I vote...
01:04:17That's four no.
01:04:20And three yes.
01:04:25In the morning, you're both gone.
01:04:55Martha.
01:04:57Cut me loose.
01:05:02Listen to me.
01:05:05Peter does not care what happens to you and your family.
01:05:08He wants to leave.
01:05:10He wants you and John to stay behind and take his place.
01:05:13The other children don't even know.
01:05:16But you know.
01:05:18You know what happened.
01:05:20You know how those cars got to the bottom of the creek.
01:05:23Do you want to be responsible for that?
01:05:27Martha.
01:05:29Cut me loose.
01:05:33Cut me loose.
01:05:53Martha.
01:06:00Martha.
01:06:09It was a fair vote.
01:06:13Go on, get some sleep.
01:06:22You better get some sleep too.
01:06:26You'll be leaving in the morning.
01:06:36Good night, Mr. Wheeler.
01:06:41Trey.
01:06:45Good night.
01:07:15Good night.
01:07:41Where are they?
01:07:42I don't know.
01:07:45Let's get out of here.
01:07:49Goodbye, Mr. Wheeler.
01:07:53Caroline.
01:08:07It's all over, Peter.
01:08:11All you had to do was stay.
01:08:13Be our folks.
01:08:16It wouldn't have been so bad.
01:08:20You're like all the others.
01:08:23Nobody cares.
01:08:32I can't let you go, Mr. Wheeler.
01:08:35It's not like the others, Peter.
01:08:37Not this time.
01:08:40They're brothers and sisters. They'll know.
01:08:43They'll believe what they're told, like always.
01:08:46You're wrong, Peter.
01:09:00I told you to go to the swimming hole.
01:09:05Now go. All of you.
01:09:07It's not right, Peter.
01:09:09We voted to let them go.
01:09:11Paul wouldn't want us to hurt anybody.
01:09:13We'll get somebody else, like we always done.
01:09:15If they left, they'd send somebody to break us up.
01:09:18I'm only doing it for you, don't you see?
01:09:21No, you're not, Peter.
01:09:23You're doing it for yourself.
01:09:25No.
01:09:26How else are you going to get out of here?
01:09:28How are you going to keep from being stuck with those kids all the rest of your life?
01:09:31See all those places you've been dreaming about?
01:09:33California, New Orleans, Mardi Gras?
01:09:36It can't be true.
01:09:37Yes, it is true, Peter. Whether you like it or not, it is true.
01:09:40You're trying to confuse me.
01:09:42I'm trying to help you.
01:09:47I love those kids.
01:09:49Do you?
01:09:51Then put that gun down.
01:09:53Put it down, Peter. Please.
01:10:06I love you.
01:10:30When people stopped, I thought they'd help.
01:10:34It ain't fair.
01:10:38People should help other people.
01:10:50If Peter done wrong, he didn't mean it, Mr. Wheeler.
01:10:55I know that, John.
01:10:58Peter, there are people, special people, who can help you.
01:11:06They understand.
01:11:08You will, too, after a while.
01:11:13Will we ever be a family again?
01:11:17That's up to Peter.
01:11:28I think maybe we ought to take a walk in the Pensborough, Mr. Wheeler.
01:11:59Don't let nobody hurt him, Mr. Wheeler.
01:12:05Don't worry, Gilbert. I won't.
01:12:10We love you, Peter.
01:12:29But if you're lonely, it stays with you, even in your deep serenity.
01:12:38I'm tired of dying lonely. I'm gonna get what I need.
01:12:46And maybe some kind stranger will keep me company.
01:12:56Because Mama said the day would come when the family would live as one.
01:13:05And all the kind strangers will keep us company.
01:13:17There are circles to every story and two sides to every side.
01:13:26Though I promised to stay with you, now I have to leave.
01:13:34I hope that some kind stranger will keep you company.
