I'LL TAKE IT.
ONE OTHER THING...
THE VILLAGERS--THEY'RE

HE'S JUST KNOWN AS A BANDIT.
Luis: NO, NO.
PANCHO VILLA IS
NO LONGER A BANDIT.
HE'S NOT?
Bonito: NO.

WHO CAN FLY THAT AIRPLANE.
IT CAN BE
VERY USEFUL TO YOU.
VERY USEFUL.

YOU THINK THE GRINGO
WANTS TO FLY FOR US?

I'LL TELL YOU
WHAT HAPPENED.
WHILE YOU WERE TEACHING

TO HATE THIS AFTERNOON,
SHE WAS BEING RAPED

SO SHE DOESN'T WAN ANY MAN TONIGHT.
IT MAY JUST BE POSSIBLE
THAT SHE FEELS
THAT NO DECENT MAN
WANTS HER.
IT WASN'T JUS THAT SOLDIER, YOU KNOW.
IT WAS YOU, TOO.
YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE.
YOU MIGHT JUST AS WELL
HAVE RAPED HER YOURSELF.

GONNA DO?
FIERRO WILL SHOOT YOU.
FIERRO.
FIERRO,
YOU GO WITH HIM.
NO.
FIERRO...
WHAT DO
YOU MEAN "NO"?
I MEAN...NO.
NO!
WELL, WHY NOT?
BECAUSE...
BECAUSE I DON'T THINK
HE IS A GOOD PILOT.
YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT.
BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER.
NO?
IF HE IS NO GOOD,
YOU SHOOT HIM
AND FLY IT YOURSELF.
ME?
WHY, ANY CHILD COULD
LEARN HOW TO FLY
ONE OF THESE THINGS.
AHH, YOU THINK SO?
YES.
YOU COULD FLY THIS?
OF COURSE.
THEN FLY IT.
HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?
YOU CAN'T FLY THIS THING.
YOU TEACH ME. NOW.
CHIEF, IT TAKES YEARS
TO LEARN HOW TO FLY
AN AIRPLANE.
YOU'LL PROBABLY--
YOU'LL CRACK UP
BEFORE YOU GET I OFF THE GROUND.
T.
YOU BETTER HOPE I DON'
THIS MACHINE IS ALL
THAT KEEPS YOU ALIVE.
TEACH GOOD.
THAT'S FINE.
NOW,
WE'RE NOT WORRIED
ABOUT THE MAGNETO
ANYMORE, CHIEF.
NOW WE'RE LOOKING
AT THE ALTIMETER.
THE WHAT?
ALTIMETER.
ALTIMETER.
THAT'S RIGHT.
ALTIMETER. RIGHT. HURRY!
I'LL TELL YOU WHA , CHIEF.
LET'S TRY THE WHOL
E THING ONE MORE TI--
NOW, GRINGO.
RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT.
MAGNETO SET?
Villa: YEAH.
[STOPS ENGINE]
HA HA! VIVA VILLA!
[ALL CHEERING]
VIVA VILLA!
[FIRING GUNS IN THE AIR]
DON'T DO THIS!
I DON'T LIKE IT.
I WILL SHOOT YOU.
THIS IS PARRAL,
AND...
THIS IS PARRAL.
THIS IS
WHERE WE ARE.
AND RIGHT HERE...
THERE'S
A TROOP TRAIN
FULL OF TROOPS
COMING TOWARD US.
MAYBE 400.
WHO COOKED THIS?
ME, CHIEF.
NO, YOU DIDN'T.
NO, I DIDN'T.
COOK IT.
YEAH, CHIEF.
THIS IS PARRAL.
THIS IS US.
AND THE TRAIN...
HEADED NORTH.
YET THE COLORADOS KNOW
THAT HUERTA IS SOUTH.
NOW, THEY HAVE TO
HOLD PARRAL
TO CONTROL
ALL THE SUPPLY LINES.
YET THEY SEND A TRAIN
FULL OF TROOPS
ON A RIDE, NOT SOUTH
TOWARD HUERTA,
BUT NORTH TOWARD US.
WORRIES ME.
THEY ARE NOT AFRAID
OF HUERTA.
WORRIES ME.
MY ORDERS SAY DON'T ATTACK
PARRAL, LEAVE IT TO HUERTA.
HUERTA HAS AN ARMY
IN FRONT OF PARRAL,
YET HE WON'T MAKE
A MOVE TO TAKE IT.
THE ORDERS DON'T SAY Y
OU CAN'T TAKE THE TRAIN.
400 COLORADOS.
YOU'RE RIGHT, CHIEF.
THAT'S TOO MANY.
TOO MANY?
NOT WITH YOUR HELP.
MY HELP?
NO, NO, CHIEF.
I'VE DONE MY JOB.
IT'S ALL UP TO YOU
FROM NOW ON.
RAWHIDE, PIECES OF IRON,
DYNAMITE--
WE LIGHT THEM,
THROW THEM AT THE ENEMY,
BAROOM!
YOU'RE GOING TO DROP
THEM ON THE COLORADOS.
FROM THE AIR.
NO, NO, NO, CHIEF.
NOW, LET ME EXPLAIN
SOMETHING TO YOU.
AN AIRPLANE IS NO USED FOR FIGHTING.
IT'S JUST TO DETERMINE
THE SIZE
AND THE STRENGTH
OF THE ENEMY.
WHO SAID?
WELL, UH, IT JUS ISN'T DONE, CHIEF.
WHY NOT?
WELL,
IN THE FIRST PLACE,
YOU GOTTA LIGH THOSE THINGS
IN THE AIR
IN AN OPEN COCKPIT.
SMOKE CIGARS.
WELL, EVEN IF YOU
COULD DO THAT,
THEY'D EXPLODE
LONG BEFORE
THEY HIT THE GROUND.
THERE'S NOTHING
YOU CAN DO
ABOUT THAT, CHIEF.
YES, THERE IS.
FLY LOW.
CHIEF, I SAID I'D FLY,
NOT FIGHT.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
ABOUT $20,000.
IN ORDER TO DO THAT,
I'VE GOTTA FLY
REAL LOW.
THEY COULD KNOCK ME
DOWN WITH A ROCK.
THAT'S A PRETTY
EXPENSIVE AIRPLANE.
Fierro: WHY DO YOU
ARGUE WITH HIM?
IT'S ALWAYS A QUESTION
OF MONEY WITH YOU,
ISN'T IT, GRINGO?
WELL, JUST LIKE YOU,
CHIEF.
FIRST A BANDIT,
AND THEN LATER
WHEN I BECOME
A BIG ENOUGH BANDIT,
THEY MIGHT CALL ME
A HERO,
AN IDEALIST,
JUST LIKE YOU.
YOU'LL GET PAID.
HOW MUCH?
25 PESOS
FOR EVERY COLORADO YOU KILL.
P.
THAT'S PRETTY CHEA
LOOK, GRINGO,
THIS IS A CHEAP WAR.
NEXT YEAR,
I'LL HAVE MORE MONEY,
WE'LL HAVE A BIGGER WAR.
ALL RIGHT?
OK.
ALL CLEAR!
COME ON!
[AIRPLANE APPROACHING]

BUT, CHIEF, WITH
YOUR PERMISSION,
DIDN' GENERAL HUERTA SAY
NOT TO ATTACK
PARRAL?
NOT TO ATTACK PARRAL.
HE DIDN'T SAY
I COULDN'T GO THERE.
SEND A MESSAGE TO
THE HEADQUARTERS IN PARRAL.
WE ARE UNDER
HEAVY ATTACK BY...
PANCHO VILLA.
REQUEST PERMISSION
TO RETURN AT ONCE.
SIGNED JOSE OCHOA,
MAJOR, COMMANDING.
YOU SAW WHA HIS PLANE CAN DO.
I WANT YOU
TO MAKE FRIENDS WITH HIM.
HIS MOTHER
SHOULD HAVE SAT ON HIM
WHEN HE WAS BORN.
I DON'T LIKE HIM.
DO I LIKE HUERTA? NO.
BUT HE'S HELPING ME
WIN THE WAR.
I THINK.
HEY, FIERRO, I'M NO ASKING YOU TO MARRY HIM.
JUST MAKE HIM HAPPY.
WE DON'T NEED HIM.
NO?
NO.
YOU COULD FLY
THE PLANE.
ME?
SURE. ANY CHILD
COULD FLY IT.
I WILL DO
AS YOU SAY.
HEH.
JORGE.
YEAH, CHIEF?
WHO COOKED THIS?
ME, CHIEF.
.
NO, YOU DIDN' NO, I DIDN'T.
COOK IT!
[COINS CLINK]
HELLO, GRINGO.
FOR YOU.
VILLA SAYS
YOU DID VERY WELL.
IS SOMETHING WRONG?
ISN'T THIS
WHAT YOU FIGHT FOR?
I DON'T FIGHT FOR FUN.
MAYBE YOU THINK
IT'S NOT REAL.
LOOK.
IT'S REAL.
VERY REAL, MY FRIEND.
I MAY BE
A LOT OF THINGS,
D.
BUT I DON'T REALLY
BELIEVE I'M YOUR FRIEN
I'M TRYING
TO LIKE YOU, GRINGO.
STOP FOR INSPECTION.
INSPECT YOUR MOTHER.
SWITCH US TO THE STATION
IMMEDIATELY, LIEUTENANT.
AH, SWITCH, NO.
MY ORDERS
ARE TO INSPECT--
DO THAT FIRST,
PANCHO VILLA WILL BE
SHOOTING FURROWS
UP AND DOWN YOUR SPINE.
PANCHO VILLA?
PANCHO VILLA.
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
VIVA VILLA!
VIVA VILLA!
VIVA VILLA!
VIVA VILLA!
VILLA HAS TAKEN PARRAL.
HE DIDN'T ATTACK.
HE DIDN'T FIRE
A SINGLE SHOT.
THE CITY
FELL INTO HIS ARMS.
HEH HEH.
LIKE A WOMAN.
WHY DO YOU LOOK
SO UNHAPPY, MAJOR?
THIS IS A GREAT VICTORY
FOR OUR COUNTRY,
FOR PRESIDENT MADERO,
FOR THE REVOLUTION.
IS IT NOT?
YES, MY GENERAL.
THEN LOOK HAPPY.
COLONEL, DETACH
YOUR TROOP TRANSPORT CARS.
I WANT TO BE IN PARRAL
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
BUT GENERAL
HUERTA--
YES?
WITH YOUR PERMISSION,
ISN'T IT DANGEROUS
TO FACE VILLA
WITHOUT YOUR ARMY?
DO YOU THINK
IT'S LESS DANGEROUS
TO FACE VILLA
WITH MY ARMY?
THE ONE PREDICTABLE THING
ABOUT PANCHO VILLA...
IS THAT HE WILL OBEY
PRESIDENT MADERO.
AND I HOLD ORDERS
FROM MADERO.
YES, MY GENERAL.
GRINGO.
YOU GE THE MONEY?
I GOT IT, YEAH.
DON'T GO, GRINGO.
DON'T GO.
STAY WITH ME.
YOU FOUGHT WELL TODAY.
WHAT IS YOUR NAME,
SENORITA?
MY NAME IS EMILITA,
MY GENERAL.
EMILITA?
MM-HMM.
EMILITA AND PANCHO.
SOUNDS BEAUTIFUL.
THINK ABOUT IT.
CHIEF.
YOU KNOW, I THINK
I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU.
CHIEF.
BUT I HAVE A MAN,
MY GENERAL.
YOU'RE MARRIED?
NO.
HEY, CHIEF!
THEN IT MUST BE
THAT HE DOESN' LOVE YOU VERY MUCH.
BUT I LOVE YOU.
AND I WILL MARRY YOU.
URBINA, GET A PRIEST.
OHH!
[TALKING AT ONCE]
SEE, GRINGO,
ALL WOMEN
WANT TO GET MARRIED,
NO MATTER WHA THEY SAY, RIGHT?
NOW, YOU KNOW
AND I KNOW
THAT THESE MARRIAGES
DON'T MEAN A THING.
I DIDN'T KNOW.
BUT I MAKES THEM HAPPY.
IT'S THE 11th TIME
FOR ME, I THINK.
THE ONLY THING I WANT TO DO
IS MAKE THEM HAPPY.
THERE IS NO HARM IN THAT.
AND SO NOW,
MY CHILDREN,
I PRONOUNCE YOU
MAN AND WIFE.
[CHEERING]
VIVA VILLA!
VIVA VILLA!
YOU REALLY GOTTA HAND I TO THAT FELLOW, THOUGH.
YES, SIR, YOU'VE REALLY
GOTTA HAND IT TO HIM.
HAND HIM WHAT?
PANCHO VILLA
IS A BANDIT, A BIGAMIST,
AND A BARBARIAN.
IT TAKES
MORE THAN DUMB LUCK
TO TURN THA INTO A NATIONAL HERO.
THE CHILI PICKER'S
GOT BRAINS.
I MAY HAVE STEPPED
INTO A MANURE PILE,
BUT I JUST MIGHT COME UP
WITH THE GOLDEN HORSESHOE.
ONE OF THESE DAYS, THAT MAN'S
GONNA OWN THIS COUNTRY.
HE DOESN'T WAN TO OWN THE COUNTRY.
HE DOESN'T?
NO. HE WANTS
THE PEOPLE TO OWN IT.
AFTER ALL
YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH,
YOU STILL BELIEVE
THAT HE'S FOR THE PEOPLE?
N.
HE'S A GOOD MA
HOW 'BOUT ME?
AM I A GOOD MAN, TOO?
YES.
WELL, I'LL TELL YOU
ONE THING, HONEY.
I'M AS GOOD A MAN AS VILLA,
AND THAT'S NOT SAYING
A HELL OF A LO FOR EITHER ONE OF US.
I DON'T CARE
WHAT YOU ARE.
Gen. Huerta:
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE.
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE.
WHY?
TELL HIM
TO STAND UP.
STAND UP WHEN YOU
ADDRESS THE GENERAL,
DAMN YOU.
I AM GENERAL HUERTA
OF MADERO'S REPUBLICAN ARMY.
GET COLONEL VILLA.
WHO?
COLONEL FRANCISCO VILLA.
HE IS TO
TURN PARRAL OVER TO ME,
BY ORDER
OF PRESIDENT MADERO.
YOU UNDERSTAND?
NOW, WHERE IS VILLA?
GET HIM!
OHH!
HE'S NOT HERE.
I WILL FIND HIM
FOR YOU, THOUGH.
.
BUT I WARN YOU,
HE'S VERY HARD TO FIND
I WILL TRY.
COME ON.
YOU'RE TAKING ME TO MADERO.
WHAT?
HURRY UP.
GET YOUR PANTS ON.
HOW?
WELL, FIRST ONE LEG,
THEN THE OTHER.
WHERE IS MADERO?
MEXICO CITY.
MEXICO...
WHAT ABOU THE GASOLINE?
DON'T WORRY ABOU THE GASOLINE.
WHERE IS HE?
IN THE ANTEROOM,
MY PRESIDENT.
EXCUSE ME.
PANCHO, MY FRIEND,
CONGRATULATIONS.
WONDERFUL,
WONDERFUL.
HAVE YOU EATEN?
ARE YOU HUNGRY?
NO, THANK YOU,
MY PRESIDENT.
I'LL EAT LATER.
COME WITH ME.
WELL...WHAT IS IT?
T.
DON'T MAKE ME DO I
DO WHAT?
DON'T MAKE ME
GIVE PARRAL
TO GENERAL HUERTA.
PANCHO, THIS IS DANGEROUS.
WHAT IS DANGEROUS?
YOUR CONFLICT WITH HUERTA.
HOW COULD I HAVE
A CONFLICT WITH HIM?
I HAVEN'T EVEN
SEEN THE MAN.
NOR DID ANYONE ELSE
IN PARRAL,
UNTIL AFTER
I TOOK THE CITY.
THEN HE CAME.
CAME.
PANCHO, PLEASE DON' MISUNDERSTAND ME.
I'M HAPPY YOU'RE HERE,
VERY HAPPY, BUT...
YOU HAVE JUST CREATED
A TERRIBLE PROBLEM.
OH? YOU DON' WANT PARRAL?
OF COURSE I DO.
E,
BUT WHEN HUERTA FINDS OU THAT YOU'VE COME DIRECTLY TO M
HE WILL THINK THAT YOU AND I
ARE PLOTTING BEHIND HIS BACK...
AND THAT'S DANGEROUS.
WHO THE HELL
IS HUERTA, ANYWAY?
DID HE WIN PARRAL?
NO!
HE'S NO GOOD.
HE DRINKS.
HE'S NOT FOR YOU,
JUST FOR HIMSELF.
DON'T PUT ME
UNDER HIS COMMAND.
GENERAL HUERTA IS HEAD
OF THE REPUBLICAN ARMY.
WHAT ELSE COULD I DO?
I GAVE HIM MY WORD.
WHAT ABOU YOUR WORD TO ME?
DON'T YOU
OWE ME SOMETHING?
I TOOK PARRAL
FOR YOU, NOT HUERTA.
NO NATION
CAN HAVE 2 ARMIES.
UNDER HUERTA, ONE ARMY
IS ONE TOO MANY.
WHAT IS IT THAT YOU HAVE
AGAINST HUERTA?
I DON'T THINK
HE'S LOYAL TO YOU.
YOU PERSONALLY KNOW
THAT GENERAL HUERTA
PLANS TO OVERTHROW
THE REVOLUTION?
NO, MY PRESIDENT.
HAS ANYONE INDICATED TO YOU,
EVEN BY RUMOR,
THAT HE HAS SUCH PLANS?
NO, MY PRESIDENT.
THEN WHAT?
COME ON, COME ON, COME ON.
SPEAK UP.
GET OUT OF HERE.
GET BACK TO YOUR PEOPLE.
FACTS.
I WANT FACTS.
GET OU OF THIS FANCY PALACE.
GIVE ME PROOF.
I CANNOT GIVE
YOU PROOF, BUT I KNOW.
I CAN SMELL IT. I KNOW!
PANCHO, DO YOU THINK THAT...
THAT I AM BETRAYING
THE REVOLUTION?
NO, BUT...
HOW CAN YOU TRUST HUERTA
AND NOT ME?
YOU'RE MY PRESIDENT.
I ASK YOU
ONLY ONE THING:
DON'T TRUST HIM.
EVERYONE IS
NOT LIKE YOU.
MY FRIEND, IT'S VERY MUCH
BETTER THAT I DIE A FOOL,
TRUSTING TOO MUCH,
THAN LIVE A TYRANT,
TRUSTING NO ONE AT ALL.
MEXICO'S HAD
ENOUGH OF THOSE.
OH, PANCHO, THIS IS
JUST LIKE THE OLD DAYS.
ONCE AGAIN,
I'M ASKING FOR YOUR HELP.
IT'S ESSENTIAL TO ME
TO HAVE YOUR PROMISE
THAT YOU'LL OBEY
GENERAL HUERTA
AS YOU OBEY ME.
YOU'RE TOO GOOD.
THAT'S NEITHER
HERE NOR THERE.
HAVE I YOUR PROMISE?
YES, MY PRESIDENT.
I PROMISE.
AND SO, GENTLEMEN,
TOMORROW AT FIRST LIGHT,
WE WILL INITIATE
OUR ATTACK ON CONEJOS.
YOU, COLONEL VILLA,
WILL HAVE THE HONOR
OF LEADING YOUR FORCES
ON THE PRIMARY ASSAULT.
MAJOR EBANIAS WILL HOLD
THE RIGHT WING,
MAJOR ESCOBAR, THE LEFT.
AH, THIS IS THE LAS COLORADO STRONGHOLD
IN THE NORTH,
AND I WANT YOU
TO UNDERSTAND
I WILL NOT TOLERATE
ONE STEP BACKWARD.
HAS ANYONE EVER KNOWN ME
TO TAKE A STEP BACKWARD?
COLONEL VILLA, THERE ARE
OTHER OFFICERS IN THIS ROOM
BESIDES YOURSELF.
OR DON'T YOU THINK SO?
NOW, SINCE YOU'RE
LEADING THE ATTACK,
DON'T YOU
THINK IT ADVISABLE
TO GET UNDER WAY IMMEDIATELY,
COLONEL VILLA?
NO.
NO?
NO. IF I RIDE
IN DAYLIGHT,
THE DUS WILL GIVE ME AWAY,
THE ENEMY WILL KNOW
I'M COMING.
I SHOULD RIDE
AT NIGHT.
MY DEAR COLONEL, YOU, UH...
YOU ARE LAYING SIEGE
TO THE TOWN...
NOT ROBBING IT.
YOU WILL LEAVE IMMEDIATELY.
GENTLEMEN,
I FULLY EXPEC COLONEL VILLA'S FORCES

HE WON'T LET IT HAPPEN.
OH, HE WON'T?

FROM HERE.
Y.
AS A MATTER OF FACT,
HE'S IN MEXICO CI NOW, I KNOW THAT YOU
AND MR. MADERO
ARE THE BES OF FRIENDS,
NOBODY HAS ANY MORE
RESPECT FOR THE MAN
THAN I DO, BUT,
UH, IT WOULDN' BE THE FIRST TIME
IN THIS REVOLUTION
THAT SOMEBODY FORGO TO PROTECT A FRIEND,
NOW, WOULD IT?
GRINGO, YOU'RE DUMB.
ALL RIGHT.
I MAY BE.
BUT YOU THINK ABOU WHAT I JUST SAID, HUH?
[SIGHS]
MADERO WON'T PROTECT ME
JUST BECAUSE HE'S A FRIEND.
NO?
OF COURSE NOT.
NOW, TO BE SHOT,
I HAVE TO BE SENTENCED.
TO BE SENTENCED,
I HAVE TO BE TRIED.
TO BE TRIED,
I HAVE TO BE ACCUSED
OF HAVING DONE
SOMETHING WRONG.
NOW, ALL THIS
TAKES A LONG TIME.
BESIDES, I HAVEN' DONE ANYTHING WRONG.
BUT EVEN IF I HAD,
MADERO WOULD PROTECT ME,
BECAUSE HE WOULDN'T WANT A MAN
TO BE DEPRIVED OF HIS RIGHTS.
HE WON'T STAND FOR INJUSTICE,
SO HUERTA CANNO SHOOT ME TOMORROW.
NOW DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
YEAH, I UNDERSTAND.
D.
I UNDERSTAND
YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR MIN
CHIEF...
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO
IS TO GET THE WORD
TO YOUR MEN,

WELL, YOU CAN'T FIGH FOR THE REVOLUTION
IF YOU'RE DEAD.
I'M FIGHTING FOR I RIGHT NOW, HERE.
THIS IS UNJUST,
TO DEPRIVE ME OF MY LIBERTY.
YOUR LIBERTY?
WHAT'S THAT?
"LIBERTY IS THE RESPEC FOR THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS."
THAT IS WHA BENITO JUAREZ SAID.
THAT IS WHAT MADERO
BELIEVES IN.
THAT'S WHAT WE'VE
BEEN FIGHTING FOR.
NOW, IF I WALK OUT OF HERE
WITHOUT A TRIAL,
I DENY THA AND BEHAVE LIKE A BANDIT.
WELL, JUST WHEN HAVE YOU
STOPPED BEING A BANDIT?
WHAT ABOU THAT LITTLE CAPER
UP IN CONEJOS
THE OTHER DAY?
THOSE MEN WERE TRAITORS,
AND HUERTA KNOWS IT VERY WELL--
THERE'S NO POIN IN TALKING ABOUT IT.
WELL, WHAT ABOUT ME,
CHIEF?
HOW 'BOUT ME?
I'M ONE OF YOUR MEN,
TOO, RIGHT?
SOMETHING
HAPPENS TO YOU,
THEY MAY
AS WELL SHOOT ME.
I'M DEPRIVED OF 20 YEA
RS OF MY LIBERTY.
I'VE GOT NOTHING.
I'VE GOT NO--NO PLANE,
NO MONEY.
