He's a patient here.

00:05:11,895 --> 00:05:14,386
What is your name, please?
Eugene martone.

38
00:05:18,193 --> 00:05:19,558
Guard: Excuse me.

39
00:05:19,861 --> 00:05:23,729
While I'm here, I'd like to run
a routine security check...

40
00:05:24,032 --> 00:05:26,694

49
00:05:43,510 --> 00:05:44,510
I'm sorry, Willie says

50
00:05:44,719 --> 00:05:46,155
he doesn't know anyone
named martone.

51
00:05:46,179 --> 00:05:47,699
Well, to be honest,
he doesn't know me,

52
00:05:47,973 --> 00:05:49,293
but if I could just
talk to him...

53
00:05:49,558 --> 00:05:52,220
Mr. brown made it very clear
he won't be seeing anyone.

54
00:05:52,519 --> 00:05:54,305
No, look, just a minute.
I have to ask him...

55
00:05:54,604 --> 00:05:56,686
I said, Mr. brown
made it very clear

56
00:05:56,982 --> 00:06:00,600
he doesn't want to see anyone.

57
00:06:00,902 --> 00:06:02,767
I can't b...

58
00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:05,771
Shit.

59
00:06:20,755 --> 00:06:22,495
Just need a signature
right there.

60
00:06:22,799 --> 00:06:24,505
Attention, officer macfarland.

61
00:06:24,801 --> 00:06:27,133
Please report

62
00:06:27,429 --> 00:06:28,714
Attention, officer macfarland

63
00:06:29,014 --> 00:06:30,454
please report
to the security office.

64
00:06:43,653 --> 00:06:45,268
Nurse: Uh, martone, right?

65
00:06:45,572 --> 00:06:46,572
When you finish the hall,

66
00:06:46,823 --> 00:06:48,343
would you take care
of the coffee room.

67
00:06:48,408 --> 00:06:50,399
And let's put a clean
trash bag in my office.

68
00:06:50,702 --> 00:06:53,614
Thank you.

69
00:06:53,914 --> 00:06:57,031
Patient: They said it was me,
but I didn't do it.

70
00:06:57,334 --> 00:06:58,870
What's the story on hoss?

71
00:06:59,169 --> 00:07:02,457
Um, twenty-five milligrams of
meprobamate and he's due now.

72
00:07:02,756 --> 00:07:04,246
Okay, fine.

73
00:07:07,260 --> 00:07:10,798
Gary's play all the way and
he made it, just nipping McGee.

74
00:07:13,141 --> 00:07:15,341
Tim mccarver along with Steve
zabriskie and Ralph kiner,

75
00:07:15,477 --> 00:07:17,092
and we've got
a dandy here at shea.

76
00:07:19,147 --> 00:07:21,147
Well, regardless of whether
you're a cardinals fan,

77
00:07:21,232 --> 00:07:22,688
a mets fan, you've gotta
love this.

78
00:07:22,984 --> 00:07:25,771
This is a baseball game.

79
00:07:27,739 --> 00:07:29,775
A line drive, deep.

80
00:07:30,075 --> 00:07:32,737
Can't get to it.

81
00:07:33,036 --> 00:07:34,742
Gets by him and Danny...

82
00:07:49,302 --> 00:07:50,792
Okay, what you want,
Mr. janitor man?

83
00:07:51,096 --> 00:07:52,176
I ain't made no mess

84
00:07:52,472 --> 00:07:54,463
Eugene: Hey, you're Willie.
That's my name.

85
00:07:54,766 --> 00:07:57,257
I heard you playing harp,
so I dropped by to say hello.

86
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,845
You're new here, ain't you?

87
00:07:59,145 --> 00:08:00,305
This is my first day.

88
00:08:00,605 --> 00:08:03,893
Well, hello, Mr. janitor man.
Now let me be.

89
00:08:04,192 --> 00:08:06,524
Well, look, I just wanted you
to know if there's anything

90
00:08:06,820 --> 00:08:09,357
I can get for you,
anything you want or anything...

91
00:08:09,656 --> 00:08:10,987
Yeah, you can get gone.

92
00:08:11,282 --> 00:08:12,613
Sorry to bother you.

93
00:08:12,909 --> 00:08:15,491
I'll just stop back later, okay?

94
00:08:15,787 --> 00:08:17,072
Mr fulton.

95
00:08:17,372 --> 00:08:19,863
Mr who?

96
00:08:20,166 --> 00:08:22,703
You were blind dog fulton
from 1939 to 1968, weren't you?

97
00:08:23,003 --> 00:08:25,164
What you been drinking, sterno?

98
00:08:25,463 --> 00:08:26,578
Your name's Willie brown

99
00:08:26,881 --> 00:08:28,721
I mean, blind dog fulton
was born Willie brown.

100
00:08:28,967 --> 00:08:30,707
He used that name up until 1938.

101
00:08:31,011 --> 00:08:32,613
After his friend Robert Johnson
was killed,

102
00:08:32,637 --> 00:08:34,740
he headed up to Chicago,
changed it to blind dog fulton.

103
00:08:34,764 --> 00:08:35,844
It's all in the books.

104
00:08:36,141 --> 00:08:39,178
I got six cousins named
Willie brown.

105
00:08:39,477 --> 00:08:41,205
Man working that grocery store
down the street,

106
00:08:41,229 --> 00:08:42,514
his name Willie brown

107
00:08:42,814 --> 00:08:44,974
if I had a nickel for every
Willie brown in this world,

108
00:08:45,191 --> 00:08:47,728
I wouldn't be here now,
listening to your bullshit.

109
00:08:48,028 --> 00:08:49,393
You're not the Willie brown

110
00:08:49,696 --> 00:08:51,924
Robert Johnson calls out for
help to in "crossroad blues"?

111
00:08:51,948 --> 00:08:54,280
Shit, no. Robert Johnson.

112
00:08:54,576 --> 00:08:55,986
I mean, you play harmonica.

113
00:08:56,286 --> 00:08:58,014
That's the real
Willie brown's main instrument.

114
00:08:58,038 --> 00:08:59,244
It doesn't make sense.

115
00:08:59,539 --> 00:09:02,030
Where I come from,
you don't blow no harp,

116
00:09:02,333 --> 00:09:04,119
you don't get no pussy.

117
00:09:08,506 --> 00:09:11,543
There's no way.
You gotta be. It's...

118
00:10:00,934 --> 00:10:03,016
All right, miss narciso, please.

119
00:10:04,938 --> 00:10:06,769
That was very good, Eugene.

120
00:10:07,065 --> 00:10:09,522
Very good up to a point.

121
00:10:09,818 --> 00:10:12,651
Most people approach
Mozart with respect.

122
00:10:12,946 --> 00:10:15,733
Evidently that's an attitude
you're not familiar with.

123
00:10:16,032 --> 00:10:18,023
I'm sorry,
I didn't mean any disrespect.

124
00:10:18,326 --> 00:10:20,783
I was just making a joke.

125
00:10:29,796 --> 00:10:33,038
Which one of these is a cigar
lighter? Have a little...

126
00:10:33,341 --> 00:10:35,548
Blasted new-fangled gadgets.

127
00:10:35,844 --> 00:10:36,959
Never work.

128
00:10:40,473 --> 00:10:43,010
Gramshell's folly.

129
00:10:43,309 --> 00:10:45,174
Pile of junk.

130
00:10:45,478 --> 00:10:47,685
Oh, what a mess.

131
00:10:47,981 --> 00:10:51,018
Magoo. Hello, Magoo.

132
00:10:51,317 --> 00:10:52,602
Magoo, can you hear me?

133
00:10:52,902 --> 00:10:57,020
Well, well, well.
Mr. janitor man.

134
00:10:57,323 --> 00:10:59,655
Hey, why a white boy like you

135
00:10:59,951 --> 00:11:03,614
so hot on some long-gone
harmonica player?

136
00:11:03,913 --> 00:11:06,154
I'm looking for a lost song.

137
00:11:06,457 --> 00:11:09,494
Lost song?
What tune you looking for?

138
00:11:09,794 --> 00:11:11,594
Robert Johnson was supposed
to record 30 songs

139
00:11:11,713 --> 00:11:12,953
at his Texas sessions.

140
00:11:13,256 --> 00:11:15,713
Only 29 exist.
He never recorded number 30

141
00:11:16,009 --> 00:11:17,715
you read that in a book too?
That's right.

142
00:11:18,011 --> 00:11:19,571
I figure you might be
the last man alive

143
00:11:19,804 --> 00:11:21,124
to know where
the missing song is.

144
00:11:21,306 --> 00:11:23,297
That part's not in the book.

145
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,888
Why you wanna know
about all that kind of stuff?

146
00:11:28,479 --> 00:11:29,594
I'm a bluesman

147
00:11:29,898 --> 00:11:32,935
a bluesman.

148
00:11:33,234 --> 00:11:35,020
You? Where you from?

149
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,026
I was born on long island, why?

150
00:11:37,322 --> 00:11:38,482
Long island.

151
00:11:38,781 --> 00:11:40,191
Oh, shit, this is rich.

152
00:11:40,491 --> 00:11:44,609
Long island, the famous
breeding ground for bluesmen.

153
00:11:46,164 --> 00:11:47,574
Oh, man.

154
00:11:47,874 --> 00:11:49,874
Okay, Willie, time for your
weekly with the doctor.

155
00:11:49,959 --> 00:11:51,324
Let's go have a checkup.

156
00:11:56,216 --> 00:11:59,424
Hey. You gonna be a janitor,
act like one.

157
00:11:59,719 --> 00:12:03,177
Mop my room, you hear?
Give her a good straightening.

158
00:12:03,473 --> 00:12:05,134
Come on, Willie.
Stop being such a pain.

159
00:12:07,018 --> 00:12:10,431
Long island bluesman.

160
00:12:19,405 --> 00:12:22,317
Dr. santis: You came to us
as a classical student

161
00:12:22,617 --> 00:12:26,075
the word "prodigy" was actually
used on occasion.

162
00:12:26,371 --> 00:12:28,282
And you have proven to be

163
00:12:28,581 --> 00:12:30,867
one of the finest
guitarists in the school.

164
00:12:31,167 --> 00:12:34,534
Mr. martone, a word of advice:

165
00:12:34,837 --> 00:12:37,920
Don't serve two masters

166
00:12:38,216 --> 00:12:42,050
the discipline of the classical
is very exacting.

167
00:12:42,345 --> 00:12:44,131
And if you persist in the other,

168
00:12:44,430 --> 00:12:46,295
you will squander your talent.

169
00:12:46,599 --> 00:12:48,635
What if the other is my talent?

170
00:12:48,935 --> 00:12:51,392
Excellence in primitive music

171
00:12:51,688 --> 00:12:53,428
1s cultural

172
00:12:53,731 --> 00:12:56,347
you have to be born to it.

173
00:12:56,651 --> 00:12:59,358
Now, you were allowed to leave
secondary school early

174
00:12:59,654 --> 00:13:02,316
to pursue classical studies.

175
00:13:02,615 --> 00:13:06,107
I suggest you re-examine
your priorities.

176
00:14:33,331 --> 00:14:35,196
Well, looky here.

177
00:14:35,500 --> 00:14:40,290
The famous long island bluesman
come back to pay another visit.

178
00:14:40,588 --> 00:14:42,124
How's it going, Willie?

179
00:14:42,423 --> 00:14:44,209
You ever been to Mississippi?

180
00:14:44,509 --> 00:14:45,794
Nope.

181
00:14:46,094 --> 00:14:48,301
You call yourself a bluesman?

182
00:14:48,596 --> 00:14:51,053
You're not blind dog fulton,
right?

183
00:14:52,642 --> 00:14:53,927
Yeah, well, Willie,

184
00:14:54,227 --> 00:14:56,889
I got something here that
you may be interested in.

185
00:15:18,376 --> 00:15:19,991
Hey, blind boy, come over here.

186
00:15:22,130 --> 00:15:23,540
What's your name, four-eyes?

187
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,171
My name Willie brown, sir.

188
00:15:25,466 --> 00:15:27,832
What you doing on these
crossroads alone, Willie brown?

189
00:15:28,136 --> 00:15:30,297
Robert Johnson told me
I could makes a deal here.

190
00:15:30,596 --> 00:15:33,087
A deal with who?

191
00:15:33,391 --> 00:15:35,757
Robert say a man called legba.
You him?

192
00:15:36,060 --> 00:15:37,470
No, no.

193
00:15:42,191 --> 00:15:43,931
I'm his assistant

194
00:15:46,112 --> 00:15:47,602
now, let me see here.

195
00:15:47,905 --> 00:15:50,317
You got to tell me what's
on your mind, Willie brown.

196
00:15:50,616 --> 00:15:51,856
I got 2 dollar.

197
00:15:53,453 --> 00:15:56,445
Well, your green
don't buy nothing

198
00:15:56,747 --> 00:15:58,703
down where legba come from, boy.

199
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,036
Now, you wanna play
like Robert Johnson?

200
00:16:01,335 --> 00:16:03,792
You wanna play like
petie wheatstraw?

201
00:16:04,088 --> 00:16:07,171
Well, say good night
to your soul, son.

202
00:16:11,179 --> 00:16:14,046
Go on, blind boy. Sign.

203
00:16:27,653 --> 00:16:31,111
Be here before 12
every Saturday night,

204
00:16:31,407 --> 00:16:33,944
and you learn them blues.

205
00:16:46,672 --> 00:16:48,583
Boy, about that 2 dollar,

206
00:16:48,883 --> 00:16:50,419
I'm running a little low on gas.

207
00:16:57,225 --> 00:16:59,557
See you in hell, blind boy.

208
00:17:11,989 --> 00:17:13,149
Oh, man. Look at this shit.

209
00:17:13,449 --> 00:17:16,862
Here we go. A little soul
from the golden ghetto.

210
00:17:17,161 --> 00:17:18,571
Hey, long island,
let's hear the one

211
00:17:18,871 --> 00:17:20,736
about the plantation
you was born on.

212
00:17:57,201 --> 00:18:01,069
You ain't gonna let me rest
with this music talk, are you?

213
00:18:01,372 --> 00:18:02,372
Nope.

214
00:18:02,623 --> 00:18:04,864
Okay.

215
00:18:05,167 --> 00:18:07,499
Meet blind dog fulton.

216
00:18:07,795 --> 00:18:10,286
The original, one and only,
Willie brown.

217
00:18:10,590 --> 00:18:12,205
You have found your man.

218
00:18:12,508 --> 00:18:13,788
Oh, this is great.
This is great.

219
00:18:14,010 --> 00:18:15,125
I knew it. You thought...

220
00:18:15,428 --> 00:18:16,838
Look, I'm not
Robert Johnson, but...

221
00:18:17,138 --> 00:18:18,253
No, you ain't.

222
00:18:18,556 --> 00:18:21,218
You ain't the beginning
of a pimple on the late,

223
00:18:21,517 --> 00:18:22,757
great Robert Johnson's ass.

224
00:18:23,060 --> 00:18:24,800
You might have
a little bit of lightning,

225
00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:26,435
but you missing everything else.

226
00:18:26,731 --> 00:18:28,471
What? Like what? Mileage.

227
00:18:28,774 --> 00:18:30,054
You can't get that
living at home

228
00:18:30,276 --> 00:18:31,561
with your mama wiping your butt.

229
00:18:31,861 --> 00:18:33,461
No, I don't live at home.
Where you live?

230
00:18:33,696 --> 00:18:34,856
It's like a school dormitory.

231
00:18:34,989 --> 00:18:37,947
Oh, a school dormitory.

232
00:18:38,242 --> 00:18:41,484
Oh, times is hard.

233
00:18:41,787 --> 00:18:44,950
Times is hard

234
00:18:46,334 --> 00:18:47,790
Willie, wait up. Wait up.

235
00:18:48,085 --> 00:18:49,370
Hey, you know what song it was

236
00:18:49,670 --> 00:18:51,150
Robert Johnson
didn't record that day?

237
00:18:51,255 --> 00:18:53,712
Of course I do. I was with
Robert when he made it up.

238
00:18:54,008 --> 00:18:55,043
Memphis, summer, 1936.

239
00:18:55,343 --> 00:18:57,083
Could you let me in on it?
Shit, no.

240
00:18:57,386 --> 00:18:59,547
Well, why not? Why should 1?

241
00:18:59,847 --> 00:19:01,053
Well, see, I could record it

242
00:19:01,349 --> 00:19:02,868
you know, like Clapton
did with "crossroads"

243
00:19:02,892 --> 00:19:04,953
I mean, the rolling stones
did it with "ll ove in vain"

244
00:19:04,977 --> 00:19:06,577
I mean, it could be
my whole introduction

245
00:19:06,646 --> 00:19:07,646
to the blues scene

246
00:19:07,938 --> 00:19:09,223
we could record it together.

247
00:19:09,523 --> 00:19:11,603
You're just one more white boy
ripping off our music.

248
00:19:11,692 --> 00:19:12,692
No, no. Willie,

249
00:19:12,860 --> 00:19:14,396
we'd be giving it
to the whole world.

250
00:19:14,695 --> 00:19:17,132
See, there's all kinds of people
who'd give anything for that.

251
00:19:17,156 --> 00:19:18,737
I mean, me and you,
we could just...

252
00:19:19,033 --> 00:19:20,443
No, you ain't deserving.
No mileage.

253
00:19:20,743 --> 00:19:22,721
All right, Willie, look,
when I get out of Juilliard,

254
00:19:22,745 --> 00:19:24,952
I'll put on some mileage,
but right now, I just...

255
00:19:25,247 --> 00:19:27,363
When you get out of Julie who?

256
00:19:27,667 --> 00:19:29,387
Juilliard. It's just
a music school I go to.

257
00:19:29,460 --> 00:19:31,542
Ain't but one school
straight on down to the delta.

258
00:19:31,837 --> 00:19:34,704
That's where it all started

259
00:19:35,007 --> 00:19:36,567
Willie, here's something
from the delta.

260
00:19:36,717 --> 00:19:38,378
Tell me this isn't son house.

261
00:19:41,389 --> 00:19:42,845
Sounds like bird shit.

262
00:19:43,140 --> 00:19:44,880
Come on, Willie.
We could record the song

263
00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:46,264
right here in the hospital.

264
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,160
Imagine what we could do
with that track.

265
00:19:48,229 --> 00:19:49,435
Just imagine what...

266
00:19:49,730 --> 00:19:52,346
Eugene, get me out of here.

267
00:19:52,650 --> 00:19:53,650
What?

268
00:19:53,734 --> 00:19:55,315
Get me back down
to fulton's point:

269
00:19:55,611 --> 00:19:57,943
My piece of land
outside yazoo city.

270
00:19:58,239 --> 00:19:59,549
Right, escape from here.
I'd wind up...

271
00:19:59,573 --> 00:20:02,030
Get me out of here
and you got that number 30 song.

272
00:20:02,326 --> 00:20:03,691
You serious?

273
00:20:03,994 --> 00:20:06,610
You're serious. What, are you
trying to get me arrested?

274
00:20:11,043 --> 00:20:12,783
Come on, Willie,
cut the shit, now.

275
00:20:13,087 --> 00:20:14,952
I'm serious about this song.

276
00:20:15,256 --> 00:20:17,417
The only shit to cut
around here is you.

277
00:20:17,717 --> 00:20:20,379
I've been of a mind that you
was another lightning boy,

278
00:20:20,678 --> 00:20:22,589
but you just a chicken-ass.

279
00:20:31,605 --> 00:20:33,846
Chicken-ass chickenshit.

280
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:36,060
You can walk?

281
00:20:36,360 --> 00:20:39,648
I can still do a few
other things too.

282
00:20:39,947 --> 00:20:43,235
I may be about ready
for another woman.

283
00:20:43,534 --> 00:20:45,054
You know, I've been married
four times.

284
00:20:45,286 --> 00:20:47,447
I just wore them all out.

285
00:20:47,747 --> 00:20:49,157
You're not a cripple.

286
00:20:49,457 --> 00:20:51,914
I mean, you're always asking
people to get things for you.

287
00:20:52,209 --> 00:20:53,409
And you're not even a cripple?

288
00:20:53,544 --> 00:20:55,330
Yeah, well, they find out
I can walk,

289
00:20:55,629 --> 00:20:56,960
they take away my Pontiac.

290
00:20:57,256 --> 00:20:59,167
Man ain't no man
he ain't got no car.

291
00:20:59,467 --> 00:21:02,630
You got a car? No.

292
00:21:02,928 --> 00:21:05,135
Then you ain't no man yet.

293
00:21:05,431 --> 00:21:10,516
Not even close, are you,
Mr. chicken-ass?

294
00:21:10,811 --> 00:21:12,091
Come on, Willie. I'm not chicken

295
00:21:12,146 --> 00:21:13,352
I'm not crazy either.

296
00:21:13,647 --> 00:21:15,687
Even if I was, you want me
to get you to Mississippi

297
00:21:15,858 --> 00:21:16,858
on what they pay me here?

298
00:21:17,067 --> 00:21:19,274
I got some money I been saving.

299
00:21:19,570 --> 00:21:20,980
You're not gonna
teach me the song?

300
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,612
Sure I will, in the great state
of Mississippi.

301
00:21:23,908 --> 00:21:25,694
I got a train to catch,
Willie. I'll see you.

302
00:21:25,993 --> 00:21:27,199
Go home to your dormitory.

303
00:21:27,495 --> 00:21:29,656
Let them wipe and Polish
your ass real good, you hear?

304
00:21:29,955 --> 00:21:31,911
And be sure to call your mama
and kiss her...

305
00:21:32,208 --> 00:21:34,745
Why don't you just leave
my mother out of it, Willie.

306
00:21:35,044 --> 00:21:40,209
Look, that song Robert wrote
is a real good one.

307
00:21:40,508 --> 00:21:43,591
You could be the first man
to record it.

308
00:21:47,556 --> 00:21:50,093
All right. Look.

309
00:21:50,392 --> 00:21:52,223
Tomorrow morning, 5:00.
You be ready.

310
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,512
We'll go to Mississippi,
all right?

311
00:21:55,815 --> 00:21:56,815
You mean it?

312
00:22:42,820 --> 00:22:44,936
All right, I'll be out
in a few minutes, okay?

313
00:22:45,239 --> 00:22:47,150
Cab driver:
It's your meter, kid.

314
00:23:00,254 --> 00:23:02,054
Orderly: Yeah, I just checked
up this hallway.

315
00:23:08,470 --> 00:23:10,210
It's George again.

316
00:23:31,869 --> 00:23:33,405
Willie: Looking for me?

317
00:23:35,623 --> 00:23:37,343
What are you doing
dressed up like that for?

318
00:23:37,541 --> 00:23:38,747
Because I'm a bluesman. Shh!

319
00:23:39,043 --> 00:23:40,624
You be quiet. Come on.

320
00:23:43,422 --> 00:23:45,333
Okay, let's go. Come on.

321
00:23:52,306 --> 00:23:53,306
Nurse: Hey!

322
00:23:53,349 --> 00:23:54,680
Feugene: Shit.

323
00:23:54,975 --> 00:23:56,135
Come on.

324
00:23:56,435 --> 00:23:58,642
Nurse: Where the hell you think
you're going?

325
00:23:59,772 --> 00:24:01,137
Shit.

326
00:24:15,704 --> 00:24:17,285
Come on.

327
00:24:22,127 --> 00:24:23,162
Willie

328
00:24:23,462 --> 00:24:25,498
nurse: Hey, get back here!

329
00:24:25,798 --> 00:24:27,789
Come back here.
Open the door, open the door!

330
00:24:35,349 --> 00:24:36,634
Okay, come on.

331
00:24:40,813 --> 00:24:41,813
Get in.

332
00:24:49,363 --> 00:24:51,103
Okay, come on.

333
00:24:56,245 --> 00:24:58,165
All right, Willie,
I checked this out last night.

334
00:24:58,414 --> 00:25:00,454
I only have enough cash
to get from here to Memphis.

335
00:25:00,708 --> 00:25:02,148
That's where we need
to change buses.

336
00:25:02,251 --> 00:25:04,617
I want you to kick in some money
to get us to Mississippi.

337
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,160
Got that money roll on you?

338
00:25:06,463 --> 00:25:08,423
Been on my hip right next
to my whip for 15 years.

339
00:25:08,716 --> 00:25:10,396
Of course I got it.
Let's have it. Come on.

340
00:25:10,551 --> 00:25:11,751
You don't be pulling out a wad

341
00:25:11,927 --> 00:25:13,633
of bacon like that
in New York City.

342
00:25:13,929 --> 00:25:15,044
When we get to Memphis,

343
00:25:15,347 --> 00:25:17,147
I'll pick up the tickets
and pay for the rest.

344
00:25:17,433 --> 00:25:18,843
Okay?

345
00:25:19,143 --> 00:25:21,725
All right.
I'm gonna go get the tickets.

346
00:25:25,482 --> 00:25:28,940
Well, half is mine.
All right, here. You take this.

347
00:25:54,470 --> 00:25:56,031
Willie: I traveled
with Robert off and on

348
00:25:56,055 --> 00:25:58,421
between 1932 and 1938

349
00:25:58,724 --> 00:26:01,682
last time I saw him was a couple
of months before he died.

350
00:26:01,977 --> 00:26:03,183
I wanted to go on to Chicago,

351
00:26:03,479 --> 00:26:05,720
but he wanted to go
on back to Mississippi.

352
00:26:06,023 --> 00:26:08,856
He wanted to learn real good
blues and make a name.

353
00:26:09,151 --> 00:26:10,186
So he went on down...

354
00:26:10,486 --> 00:26:12,101
I know. I read all
about this, Willie.

355
00:26:12,404 --> 00:26:13,644
He went to the crossroads.

356
00:26:13,947 --> 00:26:16,051
That's where Robert Johnson
made his deal with the devil

357
00:26:16,075 --> 00:26:17,075
you read about it?

358
00:26:17,367 --> 00:26:19,247
Yeah, they have tons
of books on blues folklore.

359
00:26:19,369 --> 00:26:21,655
Oh, don't give me that
folklore shit. It happened.

360
00:26:21,955 --> 00:26:23,661
Now, that's where Robert
made his deal,

361
00:26:23,957 --> 00:26:27,040
and after he told me about it,
that's where I made mine.

362
00:26:27,336 --> 00:26:29,702
They learn you in school
what happened to Robert?

363
00:26:32,216 --> 00:26:33,501
Some say he was poisoned.

364
00:26:33,801 --> 00:26:35,561
One said he was poisoned,
then he was stabbed

365
00:26:35,719 --> 00:26:37,129
I don't think
anybody really knows.

366
00:26:37,429 --> 00:26:38,429
Yeah, well, I know.

367
00:26:38,722 --> 00:26:41,134
And it all means
just one thing: Dead.

368
00:26:42,893 --> 00:26:45,760
Right, Willie. And you made
your deal at the crossroads.

369
00:26:46,063 --> 00:26:47,348
Yeah, I made a deal.

370
00:26:47,648 --> 00:26:50,185
I had my piece
of fame and fortune.

371
00:26:50,484 --> 00:26:51,849
What come of me?

372
00:26:52,152 --> 00:26:56,236
The state pen, prison ward,
old folks' cage.

373
00:26:57,616 --> 00:26:59,277
You really did
shoot somebody, didn't you?

374
00:26:59,576 --> 00:27:01,696
I know that's why they put you
in jail and everything,

375
00:27:01,912 --> 00:27:03,152
but you really did it?

376
00:27:03,455 --> 00:27:04,945
Damn right.

377
00:27:05,249 --> 00:27:07,114
Snooks Jordan.

378
00:27:07,417 --> 00:27:09,032
Guitar man.

379
00:27:09,336 --> 00:27:11,076
He was doing the business.

380
00:27:11,380 --> 00:27:13,086
Come to find out
he was taking more

381
00:27:13,382 --> 00:27:14,588
than his part of the money,

382
00:27:14,883 --> 00:27:18,216
telling me that's all
the man was paying.

383
00:27:18,512 --> 00:27:21,970
I smacked him right in his
face while he was driving.

384
00:27:22,266 --> 00:27:24,473
He pulled over,
took this half-pint,

385
00:27:24,768 --> 00:27:26,804
broke it on the road
and come back in on me.

386
00:27:27,104 --> 00:27:28,344
Shot him in the neck.

387
00:27:28,647 --> 00:27:30,933
And you didn't get out
on parole or nothing.

388
00:27:31,233 --> 00:27:33,599
No, I didn't have nobody
to stand for me.

389
00:27:33,902 --> 00:27:36,188
I didn't have no place to go.

390
00:27:36,488 --> 00:27:40,697
All I got was hellhounds
on my trail.

391
00:27:40,993 --> 00:27:43,200
Well, it's not over yet,
Willie brown.

392
00:27:54,089 --> 00:27:55,650
Well, this is it.
We're down south, Willie.

393
00:27:55,674 --> 00:27:57,960
How does it feel to be back
in the land of cotton?

394
00:27:58,260 --> 00:27:59,500
Tennessee ain't bad,

395
00:27:59,803 --> 00:28:02,385
but she ain't a pretty piece
like old home Mississippi.

396
00:28:02,681 --> 00:28:03,887
It won't be long now.

397
00:28:04,183 --> 00:28:05,844
This is where we change buses,
remember?

398
00:28:06,143 --> 00:28:07,178
Of course I remember.

399
00:28:07,477 --> 00:28:09,357
What do you think,
I done lost all my faculties?

400
00:28:09,479 --> 00:28:11,479
Give me the money, Willie.
I'll go get the tickets.

401
00:28:11,690 --> 00:28:13,130
I thought you
was paying the freight.

402
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,061
No. You know I paid
from New York to here.

403
00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:17,120
You're taking care
of the rest, pal. Come on.

404
00:28:17,279 --> 00:28:18,735
I'm taking care of the rest?

405
00:28:19,031 --> 00:28:21,259
Damn right you are. Give me the
money. We'll get the tickets.

406
00:28:21,283 --> 00:28:22,803
That's gonna be a problem.
Why is that?

407
00:28:23,076 --> 00:28:24,956
What do I look like to you,
John d. Rockefeller?

408
00:28:25,162 --> 00:28:26,402
I ain't got that kind of money.

409
00:28:26,622 --> 00:28:28,328
Stop joking around.
We don't have much time

410
00:28:28,624 --> 00:28:30,464
just give me the money,
we can get out of here.

411
00:28:30,667 --> 00:28:33,579
The money, Willie. Come on.
Give me the money roll.

412
00:28:33,879 --> 00:28:35,710
Otherwise we're not
getting anyplace.

413
00:28:36,006 --> 00:28:37,587
Thank you.

414
00:28:37,883 --> 00:28:39,363
Now, count it up,
because I don't know

415
00:28:39,551 --> 00:28:41,416
exactly how much I got.

416
00:28:48,268 --> 00:28:50,028
Willie, what the hell
is this newspaper shit?

417
00:28:50,270 --> 00:28:52,350
There's only $40 here. That's
about right. That's it.

418
00:28:52,439 --> 00:28:55,431
What are you trying to pull with this?
$40 ain't nothing to sneeze at.

419
00:28:55,734 --> 00:28:57,814
Well, it's certainly not gonna
get us to Mississippi,

420
00:28:58,028 --> 00:28:59,984
you know that. You...

421
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:04,114
Just wait here. I'll find out
what shit you got me in now.

422
00:29:04,409 --> 00:29:05,740
Excuse me, sir. Clerk: Yes, sir.

423
00:29:06,036 --> 00:29:07,876
Yeah, I need to get
to yazoo city, Mississippi.

424
00:29:08,163 --> 00:29:09,448
How far is that from here?

425
00:29:09,748 --> 00:29:12,410
Yazoo city, about, uh, 200 miles

426
00:29:12,709 --> 00:29:15,121
two hundred miles. I got $40.
I need to get two people there.

427
00:29:15,420 --> 00:29:17,035
How far will that get me?
Two people?

428
00:29:17,339 --> 00:29:19,546
That ain't even gonna get
you one-third the way.

429
00:29:19,841 --> 00:29:22,503
That's what I thought.
Thank you.

430
00:29:22,803 --> 00:29:24,864
Nice going, Willie. Yazoo city
is over 200 miles from here

431
00:29:24,888 --> 00:29:26,298
what are we gonna
do now with $407?

432
00:29:26,598 --> 00:29:27,633
Simple, call your mama.

433
00:29:27,933 --> 00:29:29,733
Tell her to put it
on one of her credit cards.

434
00:29:29,977 --> 00:29:31,513
I told you
to leave her out of it.

435
00:29:31,812 --> 00:29:33,252
I'm not calling
my father in Chicago.

436
00:29:33,355 --> 00:29:35,155
Why's your daddy in Chicago?
They're divorced.

437
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:36,771
It's none of your
business anyway.

438
00:29:37,067 --> 00:29:38,667
That's what they get
for getting married.

439
00:29:38,777 --> 00:29:40,337
The hell with you.
I'm not calling them.

440
00:29:40,570 --> 00:29:42,356
We got $40.
We're gonna handle this now.

441
00:29:42,656 --> 00:29:43,987
Ain't you got pride.

442
00:29:44,283 --> 00:29:46,283
Ain't but one thing we can do
in that circumstance.

443
00:29:46,410 --> 00:29:48,401
What? What's that? Hobo.

444
00:29:48,704 --> 00:29:49,704
Hobo?

445
00:29:49,788 --> 00:29:51,653
Yeah, I done it
for 70 years of my life.

446
00:29:51,957 --> 00:29:53,572
Robert Johnson done it
all of his.

447
00:29:53,875 --> 00:29:55,911
Ain't no sense in stopping now.

448
00:29:56,211 --> 00:29:58,418
Welcome to bluesville, son.

449
00:29:58,714 --> 00:30:00,705
Now boarding
gate number seven...

450
00:30:25,615 --> 00:30:27,822
Okay.

451
00:30:33,457 --> 00:30:35,118
What's the matter
with you, lightning?

452
00:30:35,417 --> 00:30:37,203
Why are you looking
so down in the mouth?

453
00:30:37,502 --> 00:30:38,537
Hey, no problem.

454
00:30:38,837 --> 00:30:40,757
I like sharing the back
of a truck with chickens.

455
00:30:40,881 --> 00:30:42,371
It's my idea
of a real good time.

456
00:30:42,674 --> 00:30:44,460
Well, it should be.
You in Mississippi,

457
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,093
the home of the blues
and standing on highway 61.

458
00:30:48,388 --> 00:30:49,423
Wonderful

459
00:30:49,723 --> 00:30:52,180
look, you go down this road

460
00:30:52,476 --> 00:30:54,717
and you run right smack-dab

461
00:30:55,020 --> 00:30:57,477
into the heart
of where it all started.

462
00:30:59,900 --> 00:31:03,142
I can understand
why you ain't happy.

463
00:31:03,445 --> 00:31:04,855
This is the real thing.

464
00:31:05,155 --> 00:31:06,395
This ain't no book

465
00:31:06,698 --> 00:31:07,698
what are you doing?

466
00:31:07,824 --> 00:31:10,190
I'm changing my tie.

467
00:31:10,494 --> 00:31:13,031
And I could use a little help.

468
00:31:19,669 --> 00:31:21,205
I ought to choke you.

469
00:31:21,505 --> 00:31:24,963
You do and you get
knocked on your ass.

470
00:31:25,258 --> 00:31:26,919
This is a Mississippi
string tie.

471
00:31:27,219 --> 00:31:29,175
This is what a bluesman
wear in this state.

472
00:31:29,471 --> 00:31:32,304
Them other ties,
they for city folk.

473
00:31:34,559 --> 00:31:35,674
Thanks, lightning.

474
00:31:35,977 --> 00:31:38,559
Get your thumb on back out
there and get us another ride.

475
00:31:38,855 --> 00:31:41,062
We got a long way
to go to fulton's point.

476
00:31:50,367 --> 00:31:54,030
About 40 more miles
and we make it into Greenville.

477
00:31:54,329 --> 00:31:55,660
Great. Greenville, Mississippi,

478
00:31:55,956 --> 00:31:57,276
is where I've always
wanted to be.

479
00:31:57,416 --> 00:31:58,997
You don't know nothing.

480
00:31:59,292 --> 00:32:01,578
A lot of good bluesmen
from around Greenville.

481
00:32:01,878 --> 00:32:03,994
A lot of fine,
foxy mamas too, yes, sir.

482
00:32:04,297 --> 00:32:06,083
Greenville is famous for pussy.

483
00:32:07,717 --> 00:32:09,833
Hey, look at that
train over there.

484
00:32:44,754 --> 00:32:46,540
You ain't gonna never
get that lost song

485
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,546
if you can't make
the train talk.

486
00:32:48,842 --> 00:32:52,175
Yeah, the way you playing,
it's gonna take you 10 years.

487
00:32:52,471 --> 00:32:54,591
Well, maybe I'll just have
to do what you did, Willie.

488
00:32:54,806 --> 00:32:55,950
I'll go down to the crossroads,

489
00:32:55,974 --> 00:32:57,414
I'll strike up a deal
with the devil.

490
00:32:57,601 --> 00:32:59,341
That'll take care
of the whole th...

491
00:32:59,644 --> 00:33:02,351
Don't you ever say that again.

492
00:33:19,498 --> 00:33:21,363
Girl: What you waiting for, huh?

493
00:33:21,666 --> 00:33:23,827
What you waiting for, four-eyes?

494
00:33:33,303 --> 00:33:36,215
Eugene:
Willie, what's the matter?

495
00:33:37,807 --> 00:33:39,388
Hey, come on, Willie. You okay?

496
00:33:40,602 --> 00:33:42,183
Of course I'm okay.

497
00:33:42,479 --> 00:33:43,623
You ain't drinking your beer.

498
00:33:43,647 --> 00:33:45,103
Now, come on,
we gotta get moving.

499
00:33:45,398 --> 00:33:47,434
Maybe I just wanna hang
for a minute, all right?

500
00:33:47,734 --> 00:33:49,814
Look, there's a pay phone
outside. Go call your mama.

501
00:33:50,070 --> 00:33:51,606
She be checking up
on you by now.

502
00:33:51,905 --> 00:33:52,905
She's in Europe, Willie

503
00:33:53,198 --> 00:33:54,838
nobody's gonna notice
I'm gone for a week,

504
00:33:55,033 --> 00:33:56,944
not that it's any
of your business anyway.

505
00:33:57,244 --> 00:33:58,575
Kind of testy, ain't you?

506
00:33:58,870 --> 00:34:00,735
Oh. Well, I got
no reason to be, right?

507
00:34:01,039 --> 00:34:03,246
I came down here to learn
Robert Johnson's lost song,

508
00:34:03,542 --> 00:34:05,328
not get slapped in the face
by an old man.

509
00:34:05,627 --> 00:34:07,987
Or find out I gotta become
king of the hobos and go broke...

510
00:34:08,255 --> 00:34:10,962
I'm sorry your life
turned out so hard, Eugene.

511
00:34:11,258 --> 00:34:13,590
But I got my own business
to tend to down here.

512
00:34:13,885 --> 00:34:15,485
And I don't mean for you
to slow me down.

513
00:34:15,679 --> 00:34:17,359
Business? What business?
Personal business.

514
00:34:17,430 --> 00:34:20,217
And given your attitude,
you got no reason to know what.

515
00:34:20,517 --> 00:34:22,757
My attitude? What the hell's
the matter with my attitude?

516
00:34:22,894 --> 00:34:23,894
I have a great attitude.

517
00:34:24,062 --> 00:34:25,177
You got your mind made up

518
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,186
about how everything works,
don't you?

519
00:34:27,482 --> 00:34:29,393
How you ever gonna learn
anything new

520
00:34:29,693 --> 00:34:31,524
when you know
everything already?

521
00:34:31,820 --> 00:34:34,778
Look at this old guitar
you been squeaking on.

522
00:34:35,073 --> 00:34:37,233
I bet you saw this thing
in a music store and bought it

523
00:34:37,492 --> 00:34:39,323
just because you thought
it was beat-up.

524
00:34:39,619 --> 00:34:41,575
Well, you got it all wrong.

525
00:34:41,871 --> 00:34:44,863
Muddy waters
invented electricity.

526
00:34:51,089 --> 00:34:52,329
Yes, sir. Now, I can tell

527
00:34:52,632 --> 00:34:53,776
you're a real musical-type
young fellow.

528
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:54,800
Good-looking boy too.

529
00:34:54,968 --> 00:34:56,253
Know what you're talking about.

530
00:34:56,553 --> 00:34:57,963
Now, I got something
right here...

531
00:34:58,263 --> 00:35:00,003
Something right here for you.

532
00:35:00,307 --> 00:35:01,968
They call this here a pignose.

533
00:35:02,267 --> 00:35:04,007
Now, you just hook it
on your belt,

534
00:35:04,311 --> 00:35:06,051
plug it right in there
and you're amplified.

535
00:35:06,354 --> 00:35:07,890
I can walk around
with this amp on?

536
00:35:08,189 --> 00:35:09,189
Oh, sure thing.

537
00:35:09,482 --> 00:35:10,882
I mean, you'll be
a walking concert.

538
00:35:11,151 --> 00:35:12,151
I et me check this out

539
00:35:12,277 --> 00:35:14,484
you got that on? Yeah, go ahead.

540
00:35:20,619 --> 00:35:21,859
All right.

541
00:35:22,162 --> 00:35:24,699
This is a great rig. It's great.
I can go electric and portable.

542
00:35:24,998 --> 00:35:27,078
So you're right. It's like
I'll be a walking concert.

543
00:35:27,334 --> 00:35:29,666
You ain't lacking in confidence,
I'll give you that.

544
00:35:29,961 --> 00:35:32,327
Now, we'll cut off a couple of
inches off this tubing here

545
00:35:32,631 --> 00:35:33,996
and make you a slide.

546
00:35:34,299 --> 00:35:37,041
You wanna play some delta blues,
you gotta use a slide.

547
00:35:37,344 --> 00:35:39,630
All right, now, if you
can come up with $400,

548
00:35:39,929 --> 00:35:41,510
you can take the whole rig.

549
00:35:49,689 --> 00:35:51,099
Mighty fine watch.

550
00:35:51,399 --> 00:35:53,981
Let's move on down here
and let's talk some business.

551
00:35:55,195 --> 00:35:56,195
I ook here

552
00:35:56,404 --> 00:35:57,814
let's see what we got here, now.

553
00:35:58,114 --> 00:36:01,151
Look, this watch
is worth over $1100.

554
00:36:01,451 --> 00:36:04,488
His mama bought it for him,
you understand what I mean?

555
00:36:04,788 --> 00:36:06,682
Clerk: How long... 7?
Willie, take a look at this hat.

556
00:36:06,706 --> 00:36:09,448
All I need is a Mississippi
string tie, I'm ready to roll.

557
00:36:09,751 --> 00:36:12,333
Yeah, you need
3 lot more than that

558
00:36:40,949 --> 00:36:42,405
Come on, Willie.

559
00:37:15,233 --> 00:37:17,315
Move your ass right back
out that door, sucker.

560
00:37:17,610 --> 00:37:18,941
Come on, get the hell
out of here

561
00:37:19,237 --> 00:37:22,650
so that's the way it's gonna be?
All right.

562
00:37:22,949 --> 00:37:27,693
Come on, missy. You won't be
the first woman to ever cut me.

563
00:37:27,996 --> 00:37:30,328
Let me tell you,
you won't be the first woman

564
00:37:30,623 --> 00:37:32,079
I ever whoop her ass either.

565
00:37:32,375 --> 00:37:34,175
That's the way you want it?
It's your funeral.

566
00:37:34,461 --> 00:37:35,496
Come on, keep coming.

567
00:37:35,795 --> 00:37:36,795
Come on. Come on.

568
00:37:37,046 --> 00:37:38,832
Go ahead. Are you
gonna stand there

569
00:37:39,132 --> 00:37:40,338
or are you gonna carve me up?

570
00:37:40,633 --> 00:37:42,373
Jump! Shit.

571
00:37:42,677 --> 00:37:45,009
You ought to be
ashamed of yourself.

572
00:37:45,305 --> 00:37:47,591
Pulling a knife on an old man
half blind,

573
00:37:47,891 --> 00:37:51,008
then wanna chase him
back out in the rain.

574
00:37:51,311 --> 00:37:55,054
Back in my day,
hobos respected each other.

575
00:37:57,275 --> 00:37:58,981
What name you go by?

576
00:37:59,277 --> 00:38:00,767
Frances

577
00:38:01,070 --> 00:38:02,810
they call me blind dog fulton.

578
00:38:03,114 --> 00:38:05,275
Also known as Willie brown.

579
00:38:05,575 --> 00:38:07,531
Also... what about him?

580
00:38:07,827 --> 00:38:09,818
Lightning boy martone.
Also known as Eugene.

581
00:38:10,121 --> 00:38:11,986
Lightning boy and blind dog.

582
00:38:12,290 --> 00:38:14,155
What the hell are you guys
supposed to be, huh?

583
00:38:14,459 --> 00:38:15,995
We're both bluesmen

584
00:38:16,294 --> 00:38:17,294
well, I'm the bluesman.

585
00:38:17,587 --> 00:38:19,248
He's from long island.

586
00:38:19,547 --> 00:38:21,538
We're hoboing. What about you?

587
00:38:21,841 --> 00:38:24,628
I'm hitching from Philadelphia,
going out to L.A.

588
00:38:24,928 --> 00:38:26,128
I got a dancing gig out there.

589
00:38:26,221 --> 00:38:28,462
Yeah, well, this road
ain't no place

590
00:38:28,765 --> 00:38:30,221
for a sweet-pants like you.

591
00:38:30,517 --> 00:38:33,634
Now, you take that from the
greatest hobo that ever lived.

592
00:38:33,937 --> 00:38:36,178
How old are you, anyway?
You under 167?

593
00:38:36,481 --> 00:38:37,596
Yeah, you're right, Willie.

594
00:38:37,899 --> 00:38:39,219
I'd say
she's definitely jailbait.

595
00:38:39,484 --> 00:38:44,274
Oh, yeah? I don't see too many
signs of puberty on you, honey.

596
00:38:44,572 --> 00:38:46,813
Anyway, I'm 17. How old are you?

597
00:38:47,116 --> 00:38:49,072
I'm 17. Oh.

598
00:38:49,369 --> 00:38:50,484
What are you, a runaway?

599
00:38:50,787 --> 00:38:52,573
Yeah four-time vet

600
00:38:52,872 --> 00:38:54,592
I think I threw them a curve,
heading south.

601
00:38:54,874 --> 00:38:58,082
Willie: Yeah, well,
they threw us a few curves too

602
00:38:58,378 --> 00:38:59,538
since lightning broke me out.

603
00:38:59,838 --> 00:39:01,703
You broke him out of jail?

604
00:39:02,006 --> 00:39:03,086
No

605
00:39:03,383 --> 00:39:05,590
Well, no, it was like
a nursing home.

606
00:39:05,885 --> 00:39:08,752
A nursing home?

607
00:39:09,055 --> 00:39:10,055
Oh, give me a break.

608
00:39:10,223 --> 00:39:12,839
Excuse me while I go
put my pants on.

609
00:39:18,565 --> 00:39:20,021
Pack up. What?

610
00:39:20,316 --> 00:39:21,556
Why? Pack up.

611
00:39:21,860 --> 00:39:24,146
Get your bags packed.

612
00:39:24,445 --> 00:39:25,981
Get your stuff together.

613
00:39:27,907 --> 00:39:30,023
Which way you guys headed?
Eugene: Uh, uh, south,

614
00:39:30,326 --> 00:39:32,157
towards, um, yazoo city
and vicksburg.

615
00:39:32,453 --> 00:39:33,659
Frances: Staying on 61?

616
00:39:33,955 --> 00:39:35,866
Damn right,
that's the road home. Come on.

617
00:39:36,165 --> 00:39:37,371
What are you doing?

618
00:39:37,667 --> 00:39:39,587
Just wait a minute.
I'll tell you about it later.

619
00:39:39,836 --> 00:39:41,747
It's raining.

620
00:39:42,046 --> 00:39:44,412
Well, I got a longer hike.
I'm going down to Jackson.

621
00:39:44,716 --> 00:39:45,716
I'll see you around.

622
00:39:46,009 --> 00:39:48,921
Yeah, sure. I hope you
make itto I a fast.

623
00:39:53,933 --> 00:39:55,514
Come on now, we can't
let that get away.

624
00:39:55,810 --> 00:39:57,516
What are you talking about?
She's bad news.

625
00:39:57,812 --> 00:39:59,177
That thing's got a leg on it.

626
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,813
Now, it'll get lots more rides
than your thumb. Come on.

627
00:40:11,326 --> 00:40:13,533
Yeah, could you take me
as far south as you can?

628
00:40:13,828 --> 00:40:15,034
Sure enough. Oh, great.

629
00:40:17,081 --> 00:40:18,366
Shit.

630
00:40:22,003 --> 00:40:23,743
This dude's taking us
to the next town.

631
00:40:24,047 --> 00:40:25,753
From there we're
going our separate ways.

632
00:40:26,049 --> 00:40:29,041
Hey, no problem. We don't want
you slowing us down anyway.

633
00:41:12,428 --> 00:41:14,384
What the hell is going on here?

634
00:41:14,681 --> 00:41:16,546
What, are y'all trying
to run off my business?

635
00:41:16,849 --> 00:41:20,057
Hey, hey, boy,
I'm talking to you.

636
00:41:20,353 --> 00:41:21,843
Hey, relax, we're going.

637
00:41:22,146 --> 00:41:23,602
You're damn right you're going.

638
00:41:23,898 --> 00:41:25,854
And you can tell
that old mud duck

639
00:41:26,150 --> 00:41:27,731
to get his ass off my property.

640
00:41:28,027 --> 00:41:30,147
Lay off. You got no right
talking to people like that.

641
00:41:30,363 --> 00:41:32,319
Where you from, boy?

642
00:41:32,615 --> 00:41:33,946
New York.

643
00:41:34,242 --> 00:41:35,903
Woo-hoo

644
00:41:36,202 --> 00:41:37,908
well, Mr. New York,
I tell you what.

645
00:41:38,204 --> 00:41:41,287
See now, I'll go in my office
and I'll get my .357 Magnum

646
00:41:41,582 --> 00:41:42,947
and I'll bring it out here

647
00:41:43,251 --> 00:41:47,244
and then you and I can discuss
just who's got the right.

648
00:41:47,547 --> 00:41:48,912
Come on, let's go.

649
00:41:51,884 --> 00:41:53,624
Don't come back.

650
00:41:53,928 --> 00:41:55,509
All right, all right, folks.

651
00:41:55,805 --> 00:41:58,012
Come on, it's Lloyd's
turn to buy. Darling?

652
00:41:58,307 --> 00:42:00,423
Louise, where the hell
have you been, baby?

653
00:42:00,727 --> 00:42:03,434
I've been looking all over
for you all week.

654
00:42:07,191 --> 00:42:09,477
I didn't know that
kind of thing still went on.

655
00:42:09,777 --> 00:42:13,361
Well, now you starting
to learn some deep blues.

656
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,507
She's not doing what
I think she's doing, is she?

657
00:42:37,555 --> 00:42:39,546
Mm-hm

658
00:42:43,019 --> 00:42:44,975
shit.

659
00:42:51,152 --> 00:42:53,894
She's only 17. What if that bum
does something to her?

660
00:42:54,197 --> 00:42:55,983
I can't believe
she's doing this.

661
00:42:56,282 --> 00:42:58,614
It's a dangerous road,
lightning.

662
00:42:58,910 --> 00:43:02,653
And 17 ain't no minor
in this state

663
00:43:02,955 --> 00:43:04,866
why don't we just call this, oh,

664
00:43:05,166 --> 00:43:07,031
an introductory offer?

665
00:43:07,335 --> 00:43:09,326
You know, on the house.
And in return,

666
00:43:09,629 --> 00:43:12,837
to show you what a nice fellow
I really am,

667
00:43:13,132 --> 00:43:19,128
why, I'm gonna let you push ass
out of this room all night long.

668
00:43:19,430 --> 00:43:22,217
Didn't look to me like she
was going against her will.

669
00:43:22,517 --> 00:43:25,805
Looked to me like she thought
she knew what she was doing.

670
00:43:31,609 --> 00:43:33,645
Hell, I got girls
coming up from Jackson

671
00:43:33,945 --> 00:43:35,606
work out of here on weekends.

672
00:43:35,905 --> 00:43:38,942
Now, I keep a real orderly shop.

673
00:43:39,242 --> 00:43:41,449
Nobody gets in trouble.

674
00:43:41,744 --> 00:43:44,531
Matter of fact, a girl as young

675
00:43:44,831 --> 00:43:46,116
and pretty as you are

676
00:43:46,415 --> 00:43:51,330
well, I bet she'd be real
popular around here.

677
00:44:01,764 --> 00:44:05,348
We probably got a deal, huh?

678
00:44:05,643 --> 00:44:09,431
I mean, I always liked showering
with a healthy, young girl.

679
00:44:11,816 --> 00:44:13,522
Why don't you go
start the shower, okay.

680
00:44:13,818 --> 00:44:14,818
I like it nice and hot

681
00:44:15,027 --> 00:44:17,143
you want it hot? Yeah

682
00:44:17,446 --> 00:44:19,061
you're gonna get it.

683
00:44:19,365 --> 00:44:21,777
You're gonna get it
steaming, baby.

684
00:44:22,076 --> 00:44:24,863
Now, you get those clothes off,
you hear?

685
00:44:34,422 --> 00:44:36,208
What are you doing here?
What are you crazy?

686
00:44:36,507 --> 00:44:39,214
Come on, let's get you
out of here. Come on.

687
00:44:39,510 --> 00:44:40,910
Lloyd: Frances,
get your ass in here

688
00:44:40,970 --> 00:44:44,462
or I'm gonna get nasty, now.

689
00:44:44,765 --> 00:44:46,255
Okay, I'll be right in.

690
00:44:46,559 --> 00:44:47,599
I'm coming right in, okay?

691
00:44:47,852 --> 00:44:52,141
Well, hurry up, darling.
Henry's waiting.

692
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:53,440
Shit. What?

693
00:44:53,566 --> 00:44:55,022
What? Lloyd: Frances.

694
00:44:55,318 --> 00:44:57,713
When he comes out of the shower,
I want you put his lights out.

695
00:44:57,737 --> 00:44:59,523
We'll grab his wallet
and get out of here.

696
00:44:59,822 --> 00:45:00,822
Are you crazy?

697
00:45:00,990 --> 00:45:02,390
You wanted to rescue me,
didn't you?

698
00:45:02,491 --> 00:45:05,403
So when he comes out,
knock him on his ass

699
00:45:05,703 --> 00:45:08,490
dear god, she is more problem
than she is worth

700
00:45:08,789 --> 00:45:10,120
here he comes.

701
00:45:10,416 --> 00:45:11,781
Goddamn it.

702
00:45:16,589 --> 00:45:18,420
How come you still
got your clothes on?

703
00:45:18,716 --> 00:45:20,672
What the hell's
going on here, bitch?

704
00:45:20,968 --> 00:45:23,630
Get him, Eugene!
Get that son of a bitch, Eugene.

705
00:45:23,930 --> 00:45:26,421
Come on, get him!
Goddamn it! Get off of him!

706
00:45:26,724 --> 00:45:27,930
Back off, mister.

707
00:45:28,226 --> 00:45:31,263
Or these walls will be getting
a free paint job.

708
00:45:33,522 --> 00:45:35,513
All right, now.
Just hold on. Don't shoot.

709
00:45:35,816 --> 00:45:37,556
Little underdressed, Lloyd.

710
00:45:37,860 --> 00:45:39,976
She's right. Maybe you better
put your coat on.

711
00:45:40,279 --> 00:45:43,021
Listen, why don't we all
just quit here,

712
00:45:43,324 --> 00:45:46,532
because, uh,
things are getting just...

713
00:45:46,827 --> 00:45:48,033
Just a bit out of hand.

714
00:45:48,329 --> 00:45:50,160
You just have a seat
on the bed there, mister.

715
00:45:50,456 --> 00:45:51,912
Where'd you get the gun?

716
00:45:52,208 --> 00:45:54,244
Same place you got your guitar,
at the pawn shop.

717
00:45:54,543 --> 00:45:57,205
A bluesman never travels
the road without a pistol.

718
00:45:57,505 --> 00:45:58,790
No, sir. His wallet and his keys

719
00:45:59,090 --> 00:46:00,730
are probably in his pants
in the bathroom.

720
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,520
You heard what the lady said,
lightning boy.

721
00:46:02,802 --> 00:46:04,442
Wait. What are we gonna
steal his car too?

722
00:46:04,679 --> 00:46:06,465
That's right.
Go get the wallet and the keys.

723
00:46:06,764 --> 00:46:08,484
Willie, come on.
Let's just get out of here.

724
00:46:08,766 --> 00:46:10,206
What'd you expect out here,
a picnic?

725
00:46:10,393 --> 00:46:11,913
Now, you gonna stand up
and be somebody

726
00:46:11,978 --> 00:46:13,738
or you gonna call
your mama on the telephone?

727
00:46:13,896 --> 00:46:15,306
Move

728
00:46:15,606 --> 00:46:16,971
shit.

729
00:46:20,361 --> 00:46:21,817
Listen, Lloyd,

730
00:46:22,113 --> 00:46:23,523
we're gonna borrow
that car of yours

731
00:46:23,823 --> 00:46:26,064
for about 24 hours, okay?

732
00:46:26,367 --> 00:46:27,607
If we get any heat before then,

733
00:46:27,868 --> 00:46:30,359
well, then, I'm just gonna
have to tell a statutory story,

734
00:46:30,663 --> 00:46:32,449
since I'm only 15.

735
00:46:32,748 --> 00:46:34,068
Yeah, we're gonna
blow the whistle

736
00:46:34,208 --> 00:46:35,488
on your whole
family meat market.

737
00:46:35,626 --> 00:46:37,491
It wouldn't be too good
for your business,

738
00:46:37,795 --> 00:46:39,251
would it, Mr. motel man?

739
00:46:39,547 --> 00:46:40,252
Huh-uh

740
00:46:40,548 --> 00:46:42,254
now, like the lady said,
24 hours.

741
00:46:42,550 --> 00:46:44,256
You'll find your car
safe and sound

742
00:46:44,552 --> 00:46:45,632
in the parking lot

743
00:46:45,928 --> 00:46:48,795
of the bus station
in Jacksonville, Florida.

744
00:47:07,408 --> 00:47:09,364
Willie teach you how
to play this thing?

745
00:47:09,660 --> 00:47:11,491
No, I've been on it
since I was 6.

746
00:47:11,787 --> 00:47:12,787
Six?

747
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:14,115
Late bloomer, huh?

748
00:47:14,415 --> 00:47:15,700
It took my parents a few years

749
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:17,920
to decide what instrument
they wanted me to play.

750
00:47:18,044 --> 00:47:19,830
I think my father
wanted me on accordion.

751
00:47:20,129 --> 00:47:21,335
I was just kidding, Eugene.

752
00:47:21,630 --> 00:47:23,630
Who the hell plays guitar
when they're 6 years old?

753
00:47:23,758 --> 00:47:25,958
You're supposed to be playing
with crayons or something.

754
00:47:26,052 --> 00:47:28,213
Oh, yeah? Hey, Willie,
tell Frances how old you were

755
00:47:28,512 --> 00:47:30,468
when you started blowing harp.

756
00:47:30,765 --> 00:47:33,097
Started on harmonica at 3.

757
00:47:33,392 --> 00:47:35,152
Made my first music dollar
with Mr. son house

758
00:47:35,353 --> 00:47:36,559
at the big fish fry in...

759
00:47:36,854 --> 00:47:39,971
Hey, I think that was
a state trooper back there.

760
00:47:40,274 --> 00:47:42,981
Are you kidding?
That's a guy in an old Chrysler.

761
00:47:43,277 --> 00:47:44,983
Oh, yeah? You ever hear
of unmarked cars?

762
00:47:45,279 --> 00:47:47,159
One thing I learned
and that's when you running,

763
00:47:47,365 --> 00:47:49,343
you stay running till you get
where you're trying to go.

764
00:47:49,367 --> 00:47:51,949
Bullshit, Willie, we're driving
a stolen Cadillac here, man.

765
00:47:52,244 --> 00:47:54,404
We ripped off money from the guy
who owns the Cadillac.

766
00:47:54,663 --> 00:47:56,369
We got an 80-year-old
fugitive in the back,

767
00:47:56,665 --> 00:47:58,465
a runaway from Philadelphia
in the front, man.

768
00:47:58,709 --> 00:48:00,449
I think we're pushing our luck.
Come on.

769
00:48:00,753 --> 00:48:02,539
Pull up over there. Shit. What?

770
00:48:02,838 --> 00:48:05,204
You heard me, right over there.

771
00:48:07,426 --> 00:48:10,213
Eugene: It's funny, I thought
I'd be missing New York by now.

772
00:48:10,513 --> 00:48:11,753
But I don't

773
00:48:12,056 --> 00:48:13,421
Frances: I miss my mom.

774
00:48:13,724 --> 00:48:16,466
And I miss my little brother,
he's great.

775
00:48:16,769 --> 00:48:19,761
But I don't miss Hank.
He's my stepdad.

776
00:48:20,064 --> 00:48:22,271
He gives you a hard time?
Yells at you and shit?

777
00:48:22,566 --> 00:48:24,727
Hank?
He hardly ever talks to me.

778
00:48:25,027 --> 00:48:27,484
I don't want no bullshit
about papers and licenses

779
00:48:27,780 --> 00:48:28,780
and that kind of stuff

780
00:48:28,948 --> 00:48:31,940
you understand what I mean?

781
00:48:32,243 --> 00:48:34,279
Well, sir, that Cadillac
you got there

782
00:48:34,578 --> 00:48:35,738
is a mighty fine-looking car.

783
00:48:35,996 --> 00:48:37,532
Now you talking business.

784
00:48:37,832 --> 00:48:40,289
Well, what about your mother?
Why doesn't she throw him out?

785
00:48:40,584 --> 00:48:41,824
She doesn't believe it.

786
00:48:42,128 --> 00:48:43,584
She knows I don't like him,

787
00:48:43,879 --> 00:48:45,665
so she thinks I'm making
this whole thing up

788
00:48:45,965 --> 00:48:47,546
just to get him
out of the house.

789
00:48:47,842 --> 00:48:50,834
So Hank keeps hitting on me
and I just keep running away.

790
00:48:51,137 --> 00:48:52,657
You really got
a dancing job out there?

791
00:48:52,805 --> 00:48:53,510
Oh, yeah.

792
00:48:53,806 --> 00:48:55,296
It's 100 bucks a night.

793
00:48:55,599 --> 00:48:57,635
A hundred bucks a night? Yeah

794
00:48:57,935 --> 00:49:00,301
sounds like some dancing.

795
00:49:02,314 --> 00:49:04,475
Eugene: Guys like son house,
Charlie patton,

796
00:49:04,775 --> 00:49:07,312
Robert Johnson, they were the
best slide players in the world.

797
00:49:07,611 --> 00:49:08,976
Total influence
on rock 'n' roll.

798
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:11,341
Come on, Willie, we're gonna
get you to this old barn

799
00:49:11,365 --> 00:49:12,730
and get some rest, all right?

800
00:49:13,033 --> 00:49:14,239
Don't worry, lightning,

801
00:49:14,535 --> 00:49:16,321
I ain't gonna drop down dead
on you tonight.

802
00:49:16,620 --> 00:49:18,360
See, Willie was one
of the last guys to play

803
00:49:18,664 --> 00:49:20,024
with Robert Johnson
before he died.

804
00:49:20,291 --> 00:49:22,310
Frances: Wait a minute.
You think Willie'll teach you

805
00:49:22,334 --> 00:49:23,870
this lost song you
keep talking about

806
00:49:24,170 --> 00:49:25,455
and that's gonna
make you famous?

807
00:49:25,754 --> 00:49:27,665
Right. I'm gonna learn
the tune, you know.

808
00:49:27,965 --> 00:49:30,331
Get it down to the note,
add a little of my own stuff.

809
00:49:30,634 --> 00:49:33,000
I'll make it special, but it's
my ticket to the blues scene.

810
00:49:33,304 --> 00:49:35,304
Yeah, well, I hate to tell
you this, lightning boy,

811
00:49:35,473 --> 00:49:37,964
but it all sounds like
3 crock of shit to me.

812
00:49:38,267 --> 00:49:39,473
Me too

813
00:49:45,524 --> 00:49:47,185
Hey, you feeling okay, Willie?

814
00:49:47,485 --> 00:49:49,021
Let me be now. I'm tired.

815
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,561
All right. Look, if you need
anything, just holler. Okay?

816
00:49:51,864 --> 00:49:54,526
I said, let me be now.
I'm tired.

817
00:50:08,339 --> 00:50:09,454
What's with Willie?

818
00:50:09,757 --> 00:50:11,338
I don't know.
He looks really tired.

819
00:50:11,634 --> 00:50:13,090
I mean,
he's almost 80 years old.

820
00:50:13,385 --> 00:50:15,467
This trip's gotta be
wearing him down.

821
00:50:15,763 --> 00:50:17,763
Jesus, if something happens
to him out here, man...

822
00:50:17,973 --> 00:50:20,464
Do you think we should
get him to a doctor?

823
00:50:20,768 --> 00:50:22,929
Well, I can't. I can't.
They'll find out who he is.

824
00:50:23,229 --> 00:50:24,749
They'll ship him back
to Harlem to die.

825
00:50:24,980 --> 00:50:28,268
I'm not gonna let that happen.
I promised I'd get him home.

826
00:50:28,567 --> 00:50:30,728
Do you really think
there is a home, Eugene?

827
00:50:31,028 --> 00:50:32,768
Well, what the hell's
that supposed to mean?

828
00:50:33,072 --> 00:50:34,608
Look, how are we
supposed to know

829
00:50:34,907 --> 00:50:36,147
he's this famous blues dude?

830
00:50:36,450 --> 00:50:38,315
You got any proof?
Well, yeah, he told me.

831
00:50:38,619 --> 00:50:40,109
I trust him, that's all.
Look, Eugene,

832
00:50:40,412 --> 00:50:42,012
I'm falling in love
with the old guy too.

833
00:50:42,164 --> 00:50:43,779
He's a son of a bitch,
but he's okay.

834
00:50:44,083 --> 00:50:45,483
But I know a con man
when I see one,

835
00:50:45,668 --> 00:50:47,508
and I think Willie has
made up this whole story

836
00:50:47,753 --> 00:50:48,959
to get at a gullible kid

837
00:50:49,255 --> 00:50:51,055
so he can stay out of
rest homes and hospitals

838
00:50:51,340 --> 00:50:52,420
for the rest of his life.

839
00:50:52,716 --> 00:50:53,916
You're full of shit. Oh, yeah?

840
00:50:54,176 --> 00:50:56,132
What are you gonna do
if he kicks off here?

841
00:50:56,428 --> 00:50:57,964
It could happen.
He is Willie brown.

842
00:50:58,264 --> 00:51:00,129
He's the first
acknowledged master

843
00:51:00,432 --> 00:51:01,618
of the country blues harmonica.

844
00:51:01,642 --> 00:51:03,098
The guy is a legend.
You understand?

845
00:51:03,394 --> 00:51:05,194
You're just a runaway shit
with a quick mouth.

846
00:51:05,229 --> 00:51:07,029
Why don't you just get off
my case, all right?

847
00:51:07,147 --> 00:51:08,187
Go migrate someplace else.

848
00:51:08,315 --> 00:51:10,897
Do me a favor. I eave us alone.

849
00:51:52,860 --> 00:51:56,773
Don't worry, I'll be
out of here in the morning.

850
00:51:57,072 --> 00:51:59,028
Look, I really
didn't mean anything.

851
00:51:59,325 --> 00:52:00,656
I'm just...

852
00:52:00,951 --> 00:52:02,862
I'm just a little rattled
about everything.

853
00:52:03,162 --> 00:52:04,993
Okay? I'm sorry.

854
00:52:05,289 --> 00:52:07,575
I'd really like you
to hang with us.

855
00:52:07,875 --> 00:52:10,287
I mean, I don't want you
to take off.

856
00:52:11,879 --> 00:52:15,963
It's not like I don't like you.
I really like you.

857
00:52:23,641 --> 00:52:24,972
That was nice.

858
00:52:25,267 --> 00:52:27,974
Really? Yeah.

859
00:52:57,841 --> 00:52:59,797
Ah, here's one of the vagrants
right here.

860
00:53:00,094 --> 00:53:01,630
Keep the 12 on him.

861
00:53:01,929 --> 00:53:02,929
Bring him on back.

862
00:53:03,180 --> 00:53:04,920
What you doing? What's going on?

863
00:53:05,224 --> 00:53:06,805
Hey, Willie,
you all right? What's...?

864
00:53:07,101 --> 00:53:09,433
Look like we got a couple
of lovebirds up top.

865
00:53:09,728 --> 00:53:10,728
Oh, shit.

866
00:53:11,021 --> 00:53:12,557
Hey, we wasn't
doing nothing, officer.

867
00:53:12,856 --> 00:53:15,268
I'm a sick man. These children
just tending to me.

868
00:53:15,567 --> 00:53:17,148
Keep him quiet, Chester.

869
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,821
Officer: Looky here, looky here.

870
00:53:23,117 --> 00:53:25,403
Well

871
00:53:27,705 --> 00:53:29,070
I hate to inform you good folks,

872
00:53:29,373 --> 00:53:32,957
but I got to be leaving you
in the hands of sheriff tilford.

873
00:53:35,838 --> 00:53:37,749
Police radio: Mobile weather

874
00:53:38,048 --> 00:53:39,651
what do you think
this sheriff's tilford's

875
00:53:39,675 --> 00:53:40,835
gonna do with us, Willie?

876
00:53:41,135 --> 00:53:42,420
I don't know

877
00:53:42,720 --> 00:53:45,462
back in my day they'd put us
in a police car like this

878
00:53:45,764 --> 00:53:48,380
and drive us way off
in the field and.

879
00:53:48,684 --> 00:53:50,049
Great.

880
00:53:55,607 --> 00:53:56,642
I ook.

881
00:54:14,168 --> 00:54:15,624
How come they didn't
find the gun?

882
00:54:15,919 --> 00:54:18,535
You just keep your mouth shut
about that gun, you hear?

883
00:54:18,839 --> 00:54:21,205
They can't hear me.
Keep your mouth shut anyway.

884
00:54:28,557 --> 00:54:30,798
Well, well...

885
00:54:31,101 --> 00:54:34,093
Sleeping up
in Nate Edward's barn, huh?

886
00:54:34,396 --> 00:54:37,559
Fooling about indecent
up in the loft.

887
00:54:37,858 --> 00:54:39,974
Now, no identification.

888
00:54:40,277 --> 00:54:42,438
Electric, uh, guitar.

889
00:54:42,738 --> 00:54:45,980
Well, vagrants aren't
real popular in this county.

890
00:54:46,283 --> 00:54:48,023
Come on. Get out.

891
00:54:50,162 --> 00:54:53,199
O.z.. Uncuff them.

892
00:54:53,499 --> 00:54:54,784
You don't come into my county

893
00:54:55,083 --> 00:54:57,950
and break and enter
an honest man's barn.

894
00:54:58,253 --> 00:54:59,709
But you three caught me
on a morning

895
00:55:00,005 --> 00:55:02,246
when I'm in a good mood.

896
00:55:02,549 --> 00:55:04,414
Now, once you cross that bridge,

897
00:55:04,718 --> 00:55:07,380
you in sheriff Larry Fowler's
county,

898
00:55:07,679 --> 00:55:10,136
and you his problem, not mine.

899
00:55:10,432 --> 00:55:13,799
Now, you pick up your personal
belongings and start walking.

900
00:55:14,102 --> 00:55:17,515
I don't like vagrants
and I don't like trespassers.

901
00:55:17,815 --> 00:55:19,100
What about our money?

902
00:55:19,399 --> 00:55:20,399
What money?

903
00:55:20,692 --> 00:55:23,399
Your deputy took
all my money out of my bag.

904
00:55:26,615 --> 00:55:28,606
O.z. Didn't say nothing
about it to me

905
00:55:28,909 --> 00:55:31,696
now, get going.
That's not right, not fair.

906
00:55:31,995 --> 00:55:33,531
Come on.
No! You stole our money.

907
00:55:33,831 --> 00:55:35,241
That's not fucking fair.

908
00:55:35,541 --> 00:55:39,079
Oh, really? Yeah

909
00:55:39,378 --> 00:55:41,710
well, I tell you what I can do.

910
00:55:42,005 --> 00:55:44,371
I can put you in the county farm
for criminal women

911
00:55:44,675 --> 00:55:47,838
and you can stay there
while you pressing your charges.

912
00:55:48,136 --> 00:55:51,503
Oh, they treat you real nice
out at the county farm.

913
00:55:51,807 --> 00:55:54,765
Yes, ma'am. Come on, let's go.

914
00:55:55,060 --> 00:55:58,268
Things seem to have changed
in this county.

915
00:55:58,564 --> 00:56:01,556
Then again, they kind of seem
the same, don't they?

916
00:56:03,569 --> 00:56:05,981
We just be on our way, captain.

917
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:08,771
Ain't no point in making a fuss.

918
00:56:29,386 --> 00:56:31,468
Clerk: Two rooms,
$25 for the night.

919
00:56:31,763 --> 00:56:35,927
Just about what we got here
in the emergency fund.

920
00:56:36,226 --> 00:56:38,683
You're all traveling together?
That's right.

921
00:56:38,979 --> 00:56:41,595
We'll be on our way
come morning.

922
00:56:49,197 --> 00:56:51,153
You recognize this place?

923
00:56:51,450 --> 00:56:53,190
This old crossroads around here?

924
00:56:53,493 --> 00:56:54,778
Nope. Never seen it

925
00:56:55,078 --> 00:56:57,278
now, you look hard. It's gotta
be around here someplace.

926
00:56:57,414 --> 00:56:59,530
Ain't nothing around here
but the town of weevil.

927
00:56:59,833 --> 00:57:02,324
And that's two miles
down the road.

928
00:57:02,628 --> 00:57:05,085
Weevil. I know that old town.

929
00:57:05,380 --> 00:57:07,400
And I don't know nothing
about no crossroads either.

930
00:57:07,424 --> 00:57:08,824
Do you know where
fulton's point is?

931
00:57:09,051 --> 00:57:10,882
I know where fulton's point is.
Come on.

932
00:57:11,178 --> 00:57:13,840
Let's be getting up
to our rooms.

933
00:57:29,821 --> 00:57:32,688
Man: I'm telling you,
man, it's easy.

934
00:57:32,991 --> 00:57:34,947
Willie: Yes, sir.
Sonny crupp's place.

935
00:57:35,243 --> 00:57:38,235
Looks almost the same
as it did 40 years ago.

936
00:57:38,538 --> 00:57:42,076
They used to charge a good
50 cents for a glass of whiskey.

937
00:57:42,376 --> 00:57:44,037
That was robbery.

938
00:57:44,336 --> 00:57:45,416
You know that place?

939
00:57:45,712 --> 00:57:48,078
Like yesterday.

940
00:57:48,382 --> 00:57:50,338
Looks like a good place
to pick up some bucks.

941
00:57:50,634 --> 00:57:51,840
How we gonna do that?

942
00:57:52,135 --> 00:57:54,467
That's my boy, green as always.

943
00:57:54,763 --> 00:57:56,754
I hope you wasn't too green
up in that hay loft.

944
00:57:57,057 --> 00:57:58,172
If you wanna be a bluesman,

945
00:57:58,475 --> 00:57:59,835
you gotta be able
to use your whip.

946
00:57:59,935 --> 00:58:01,266
He was an animal, Willie.

947
00:58:01,561 --> 00:58:02,971
You don't have
to worry about him.

948
00:58:03,271 --> 00:58:05,011
All his parts
are in working order.

949
00:58:05,315 --> 00:58:08,853
Well, well, big man, ain't you?

950
00:58:09,152 --> 00:58:11,017
Now, you take this piece

951
00:58:11,321 --> 00:58:12,924
and go in there
and bring home the big eagle.

952
00:58:12,948 --> 00:58:16,782
You go in there and have a drink
and play a few songs.

953
00:58:17,077 --> 00:58:18,304
Now, they probably
some rough boys,

954
00:58:18,328 --> 00:58:20,535
so you keep that iron handy.

955
00:58:20,831 --> 00:58:23,038
What you got to say
for yourself, long island?

956
00:58:23,333 --> 00:58:24,994
I should be committed,

957
00:58:25,293 --> 00:58:26,908
that's what I have
to say, Willie.

958
00:58:27,212 --> 00:58:29,123
I should be committed
for ever listening to you.

959
00:58:29,423 --> 00:58:32,586
My, my, my.
What happened to Willie brown?

960
00:58:32,884 --> 00:58:35,029
Greatest hobo that ever lived,
all-time great harp player.

961
00:58:35,053 --> 00:58:37,886
Wouldn't he just be able to
walk in there and clean up?

962
00:58:38,181 --> 00:58:39,541
Sure thing.
I done it lots of times

963
00:58:39,725 --> 00:58:41,285
yeah, well, problem is,
I'm starting to think

964
00:58:41,309 --> 00:58:42,709
Robert Johnson's friend
Willie brown

965
00:58:42,978 --> 00:58:44,263
isn't within 1000 miles of here.

966
00:58:44,563 --> 00:58:46,165
And if he is, he's probably
just out there

967
00:58:46,189 --> 00:58:47,645
buried in some unmarked grave.

968
00:58:47,941 --> 00:58:49,836
Somebody saying they ain't
believing what I been speaking?

969
00:58:49,860 --> 00:58:51,838
That's right, Willie.
I'm saying you're full of shit.

970
00:58:51,862 --> 00:58:52,862
You know something?

971
00:58:53,071 --> 00:58:54,551
Every time you mention
fulton's point,

972
00:58:54,740 --> 00:58:56,150
nobody's heard
of the goddamn place.

973
00:58:56,450 --> 00:58:58,610
I'm starting to think you're
just a con man who used me

974
00:58:58,660 --> 00:59:01,652
just to get your ass
out of a nursing home.

975
00:59:03,915 --> 00:59:05,621
Where are you going?

976
00:59:05,917 --> 00:59:10,206
Look, you smart-ass kids,
you don't need me.

977
00:59:10,505 --> 00:59:13,463
I do my business
on this side of the road

978
00:59:13,759 --> 00:59:16,626
and you white folks
do your business on that side.

979
00:59:16,928 --> 00:59:21,467
That's the way they get things
done in Mississippi.

980
00:59:23,643 --> 00:59:26,305
Os come on back, sweet daddy
back where you belong j

981
00:59:26,605 --> 00:59:30,018
j I gambled over town
and I found that I can't win j

982
00:59:30,317 --> 00:59:33,650
j come on back,
and pick me up again j

983
00:59:33,945 --> 00:59:37,233
j now if I lose, let me lose j

984
00:59:37,532 --> 00:59:41,400
j I don't care how much I lose j

985
00:59:41,703 --> 00:59:43,443
j if I lose a hundred dollars j

986
00:59:43,747 --> 00:59:45,783
j while I'm tryin' to win a dime

987
00:59:46,083 --> 00:59:47,789
j my baby's got money
all the time... j

988
00:59:48,085 --> 00:59:51,202
well, well, well.
What can we do you tonight?

989
00:59:51,505 --> 00:59:54,247
I don't... I don't know.
Whiskey, I guess.

990
00:59:54,549 --> 00:59:56,540
You look kind of young.
Got any ID?

991
00:59:56,843 --> 00:59:59,050
No, sir. Not with me, I don't.

992
00:59:59,346 --> 01:00:01,678
Well, I reckon one snort
ain't gonna hurt you.

993
01:00:01,973 --> 01:00:05,431
J all the other boys I know,
none can take your place j

994
01:00:05,727 --> 01:00:09,686
j 'cause when I get into a jam,
they just ain't in the race j

995
01:00:09,981 --> 01:00:13,849
s come on back, sweet daddy,
let's make another round j

996
01:00:14,152 --> 01:00:15,272
hey, cutie, where you going?

997
01:00:15,487 --> 01:00:17,694
Oh, you are one pretty lady.

998
01:00:17,989 --> 01:00:19,854
You're not from
around here, are you?

999
01:00:20,158 --> 01:00:22,365
Uh, no, I just got into town.

1000
01:00:22,661 --> 01:00:24,993
Not that we got anything
against late arrivals.

1001
01:00:25,288 --> 01:00:27,199
Wanna dance? Yeah, I do.

1002
01:00:27,499 --> 01:00:29,160
Well, let's do it. All right.

1003
01:00:31,419 --> 01:00:33,080
Bartender:
That'll be a dollar, friend.

1004
01:00:33,380 --> 01:00:37,043
How about I play some songs
on my guitar for the drink?

1005
01:00:37,342 --> 01:00:40,926
I'll stand you that drink,
then you haul ass out of here.

1006
01:00:44,933 --> 01:00:46,139
Thank you.

1007
01:00:51,273 --> 01:00:53,764
J cotton needs pickin' so bad I

1008
01:00:54,067 --> 01:00:56,979
j we gonna pick
all over this field j

1009
01:00:57,279 --> 01:01:00,521
j you know I went down and laid
down my head last night j

1010
01:01:05,412 --> 01:01:08,028
he jumped up and started going
out the window, shouting:

1011
01:01:08,331 --> 01:01:11,198
"Oh, shit! Here come blind dog!"

1012
01:01:11,501 --> 01:01:13,958
I say, "hey," I call out
my .38 special, see.

1013
01:01:14,254 --> 01:01:17,166
I say, "ain't so blind
I can't see

1014
01:01:17,465 --> 01:01:20,207
your naked ass
going out my window."

1015
01:01:22,095 --> 01:01:23,426
Willie:
Shot him in the left side.

1016
01:01:23,722 --> 01:01:25,804
That's how I come
to making up that song.

1017
01:01:29,978 --> 01:01:31,538
I'm supposed to believe
you Willie brown

1018
01:01:31,771 --> 01:01:33,011
and blind dog fulton?

1019
01:01:33,315 --> 01:01:34,976
You ain't supposed
to believe nothing.

1020
01:01:35,275 --> 01:01:38,688
Now, if you wanna do
something, here I am.

1021
01:01:38,987 --> 01:01:41,319
Maybe later, honey.

1022
01:01:41,615 --> 01:01:43,446
Let me through.

1023
01:01:43,742 --> 01:01:47,485
Give me another beer and a vodka
on the rocks for a pretty lady.

1024
01:01:58,590 --> 01:02:00,581
Yeah, I think I might have
to dance here.

1025
01:02:00,884 --> 01:02:02,420
Okay, where is it?

1026
01:02:02,719 --> 01:02:04,380
What? My wallet.

1027
01:02:04,679 --> 01:02:06,010
What are you trying to say?

1028
01:02:06,306 --> 01:02:08,186
Come on, come on,
you little thief, cough it up.

1029
01:02:08,350 --> 01:02:10,557
You think I took your wallet.
That's right.

1030
01:02:10,852 --> 01:02:13,810
Go ahead and search me. I don't
give a fuck. I just believe I will.

1031
01:02:14,105 --> 01:02:16,345
Come on, why don't you get
your hands off her, all right?

1032
01:02:16,566 --> 01:02:18,397
This your lady?
Yeah, she's with me.

1033
01:02:18,693 --> 01:02:22,185
She snagged my wallet and she
don't wanna give it back.

1034
01:02:22,489 --> 01:02:24,489
Look, she said she didn't
take it. Did you take it?

1035
01:02:24,574 --> 01:02:25,734
No, I didn't take his wallet.

1036
01:02:25,951 --> 01:02:27,553
And I'll tell you
he'd better shut his mouth

1037
01:02:27,577 --> 01:02:29,137
before my friend
takes out his gun, huh?

1038
01:02:29,287 --> 01:02:30,868
A gun? Yeah.

1039
01:02:31,164 --> 01:02:32,164
You got a gun?

1040
01:02:32,207 --> 01:02:33,287
Yeah

1041
01:02:33,583 --> 01:02:35,289
I et me see it

1042
01:02:35,585 --> 01:02:38,247
go ahead, show it to him.
Go on. Come on.

1043
01:02:40,090 --> 01:02:42,456
Fella comes in here,
packing a gun.

1044
01:02:42,759 --> 01:02:44,966
I don't want any trouble,
all right? It's not...

1045
01:02:45,262 --> 01:02:46,377
Hey!

1046
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:48,466
Holy shit, mister.
I don't want any trouble.

1047
01:02:48,765 --> 01:02:49,765
Hand that piece over.

1048
01:02:49,933 --> 01:02:51,469
Don't you dare.
Will you come on?

1049
01:02:51,768 --> 01:02:53,633
Great, fine.
I don't want the gun.

1050
01:02:53,937 --> 01:02:55,657
I just wanna get out of here.
Let's get out.

1051
01:02:55,855 --> 01:02:57,140
Now, now, hold it, hold it.

1052
01:02:57,440 --> 01:02:58,850
Now, you can get out of here.

1053
01:02:59,150 --> 01:03:00,470
I just wanna
give you something...

1054
01:03:00,568 --> 01:03:02,684
Duck!

1055
01:03:02,988 --> 01:03:05,775
You son of a bitch.
You son of a bitch, Harley!

1056
01:03:08,618 --> 01:03:11,109
Now, hold it just
a goddamn minute.

1057
01:03:11,413 --> 01:03:12,903
There ain't gonna be
no more fighting.

1058
01:03:13,206 --> 01:03:15,572
Harley, Alvin, you settle down.

1059
01:03:15,875 --> 01:03:17,536
Did you take his wallet, miss?

1060
01:03:17,836 --> 01:03:20,077
Because if you did,
give it back to him.

1061
01:03:20,380 --> 01:03:22,336
Harley's dumb,
but that don't mean

1062
01:03:22,632 --> 01:03:24,247
he deserves to have
his wallet stolen.

1063
01:03:24,551 --> 01:03:26,883
He's got a family
and they need the money.

1064
01:03:35,562 --> 01:03:38,178
Bartender: You both got a lot
of growing up to do.

1065
01:03:38,481 --> 01:03:40,267
Now, get on out of here.

1066
01:03:40,567 --> 01:03:43,809
All right, now, let's everybody
get back to drinking!

1067
01:03:52,746 --> 01:03:55,032
J I'm a maintanance man, baby j

woman:

1071
01:04:17,604 --> 01:04:19,845
You on the wrong side
of the tracks, ain't you?

1072
01:04:21,483 --> 01:04:24,896
You looking for crupp's.
Crupp's across the road.

1073
01:04:25,195 --> 01:04:27,106
Uh, no, we were there already.
We're just...

1074
01:04:27,405 --> 01:04:29,817
We're just looking for
a friend of ours, that's it.

1075
01:04:35,455 --> 01:04:36,945
You see this boy, I edell?

1076
01:04:37,248 --> 01:04:40,581
You come in the juke with your
guitar, dressed to play?

1077
01:04:40,877 --> 01:04:42,617
In a black man's juke?

1078
01:04:42,921 --> 01:04:44,627
I'm surprised you can walk, boy.

1079
01:04:44,923 --> 01:04:46,788
You got balls this big.

1080
01:04:51,096 --> 01:04:52,961
Man:
Let's take his guitar from him.

1081
01:05:04,567 --> 01:05:06,103
Yes, sir, people!

1082
01:05:06,403 --> 01:05:08,940
The lightning boy has arrived,
and if you'd be so kind

1083
01:05:09,239 --> 01:05:11,275
to let him and his girl
toward the stage,

1084
01:05:11,574 --> 01:05:13,656

the roof off this joint.

1085
01:05:13,952 --> 01:05:16,409
Let him to the stage, I say!

1086
01:05:16,704 --> 01:05:18,535
I said, let him
toward the stage.

1087
01:05:18,832 --> 01:05:20,868
Now, this boy's come a long way
to show you

1088
01:05:21,167 --> 01:05:22,532
how good he can play that thing.

1089
01:05:22,836 --> 01:05:24,747

How's the lightning boy? Yeah

1092
01:05:34,013 --> 01:05:36,174
what's wrong with you?
I told you not to come in here.

1093
01:05:36,474 --> 01:05:38,806
I got some heat from the other
side. I lost the gun too.

1094
01:05:39,102 --> 01:05:41,093
You dumb shit, we gonna
get heat from this side

1095
01:05:41,396 --> 01:05:43,352

j yeah, yeah j

1121
01:07:24,791 --> 01:07:26,671
Eugene: Willie brown,
prince of the delta blues,

1122
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:29,320
blows into some old juke house
that's been dead for 40 years

1123
01:07:29,462 --> 01:07:31,327
and turns the place
inside out, man.

1124
01:07:31,631 --> 01:07:33,859
And who was up there filling
Robert Johnson's shoes, huh?

1125
01:07:33,883 --> 01:07:35,403
Looked like a dipshit
from long island.

1126
01:07:35,677 --> 01:07:37,258
Come on. I was great
and you know it.

1127
01:07:37,554 --> 01:07:39,114
You know, the owner
walked up to Willie,

1128
01:07:39,180 --> 01:07:41,100
gave him three one hundred
dollar bills and says:

1129
01:07:41,140 --> 01:07:42,140
"Your boy can play."

1130
01:07:42,350 --> 01:07:44,190
They know what they're
talking about down here.

1131
01:07:44,394 --> 01:07:46,180
You guys were terrific.
You guys? Us guys.

1132
01:07:46,479 --> 01:07:48,970
Don't count yourself out.

1133
01:07:49,274 --> 01:07:50,980
Looks like weevil's
right outside vicksburg

1134
01:07:51,276 --> 01:07:53,062
which is about 30 miles shy
of yazoo county.

1135
01:07:53,361 --> 01:07:54,521
You're almost there

1136
01:07:54,821 --> 01:07:56,840
Willie says that's the most
beautiful land in the state.

1137
01:07:56,864 --> 01:07:58,926
I think when we get there
we should hang with Willie.

1138
01:07:58,950 --> 01:08:00,486
We should settle
into fulton's point

1139
01:08:00,785 --> 01:08:02,385
until he teaches me
the lost song, right?

1140
01:08:02,579 --> 01:08:04,339
Then we'll get a Van.
We'll tour the country.

1141
01:08:04,622 --> 01:08:06,582
Blind dog, lightning boy,
peddling the lost blues.

1142
01:08:06,791 --> 01:08:08,711
This stuff is happening...
Yeah, it sounds great.

1143
01:08:08,751 --> 01:08:10,958
It really does. What do I
get to do, drive the Van?

1144
01:08:11,254 --> 01:08:13,040
Oh, we could get a blazer.
We could go...

1145
01:08:13,339 --> 01:08:14,545
Ladies and gentlemen.

1146
01:08:14,841 --> 01:08:16,881
Here he is, prince of the
delta blues, Willie brown!

1147
01:08:17,010 --> 01:08:18,420
Bright lights fry your brain?

1148
01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:20,381
I guess that's why
you forgot your hat.

1149
01:08:20,680 --> 01:08:22,360
Willie, I just played
my first barrelhouse.

1150
01:08:22,473 --> 01:08:23,508
I'm a bluesman now

1151
01:08:23,808 --> 01:08:25,768
bluesman, shit. Only one
bluesman in town tonight,

1152
01:08:25,977 --> 01:08:27,092
that was me.

1153
01:08:27,395 --> 01:08:29,886
Where you learn to play them
pussy chords, in music school?

1154
01:08:30,189 --> 01:08:31,554
Only one school, Willie.

1155
01:08:31,858 --> 01:08:34,178
I played the chords I learned
on the road and I kicked ass.

1156
01:08:34,235 --> 01:08:36,100
People felt it,
so don't give me that garbage.

1157
01:08:36,404 --> 01:08:38,611
People felt whiskey.
Same as I'm feeling right now.

1158
01:08:38,906 --> 01:08:40,396
And just about
to feel some more.

1159
01:08:40,700 --> 01:08:42,460
Hey, Willie, lay off him, okay?
He was great.

1160
01:08:42,744 --> 01:08:44,029
Got a problem with that, huh?

1161
01:08:44,329 --> 01:08:45,969
Look, he's on the road
to learn something.

1162
01:08:46,247 --> 01:08:48,207
Now, he can't be learning
nothing if he's thinking

1163
01:08:48,416 --> 01:08:49,416
he's the boss...

1164
01:08:49,542 --> 01:08:51,061
You won't give an inch,
will you, Willie?

1165
01:08:51,085 --> 01:08:53,245
You can't even come in here
after what happened tonight

1166
01:08:53,296 --> 01:08:54,376
and say, "nice job, kid."

1167
01:08:54,672 --> 01:08:56,632
You can't even give me
a simple "congratulations."

1168
01:08:56,758 --> 01:08:58,089
You know what you want,
lightning?

1169
01:08:58,384 --> 01:08:59,704
You want me to stand here
and say:

1170
01:08:59,927 --> 01:09:01,864
"Boy, you as good as Robert
Johnson." But you ain't.

1171
01:09:01,888 --> 01:09:04,595
If you'd spend as much time
with your hands on them strings

1172
01:09:04,891 --> 01:09:07,883
as you do on this girl's ass,
you might get somewhere.

1173
01:09:08,186 --> 01:09:10,051
Excuse me, I think
I'll go to my room

1174
01:09:10,355 --> 01:09:13,472
and leave you two lovebirds be.

1175
01:09:22,575 --> 01:09:25,157
He's a mean, shitty old man.

1176
01:09:54,148 --> 01:09:56,184
Shame on you, Willie brown,

1177
01:09:56,484 --> 01:09:59,692
traveling all the way back down
home as if you had a chance.

1178
01:09:59,987 --> 01:10:02,194
Ain't got no chance, blind dog.

1179
01:10:02,490 --> 01:10:03,650
You sold your soul.

1180
01:10:03,950 --> 01:10:06,862
You going down.
All the way down.

1181
01:10:07,161 --> 01:10:09,743
Hellhounds on your trail, boy.

1182
01:10:10,039 --> 01:10:11,575
Hellhounds on your trail.

1183
01:10:26,556 --> 01:10:28,012
All right.

1184
01:10:29,892 --> 01:10:31,132
Why you sneaking around?

1185
01:10:31,436 --> 01:10:33,017
I'm going. Going where?

1186
01:10:33,312 --> 01:10:34,472
Gotta get to L.A.

1187
01:10:34,772 --> 01:10:36,292
I'm just like you
and Eugene, you know.

1188
01:10:36,441 --> 01:10:37,441
I got places to go.

1189
01:10:37,650 --> 01:10:39,311
What about the boy?
Now, you know...

1190
01:10:39,610 --> 01:10:41,891
There's no goodbyes on the road.
It doesn't work that way.

1191
01:10:42,071 --> 01:10:45,529
You give lightning boy
a hug for me, okay?

1192
01:10:45,825 --> 01:10:47,861
Tell him I'll miss him.

1193
01:11:01,841 --> 01:11:05,333
You're right.
Ain't no goodbyes on the road.

1194
01:11:06,846 --> 01:11:08,552
See you around, huh?

1195
01:11:10,057 --> 01:11:11,137
What's this?

1196
01:11:11,434 --> 01:11:13,265
$100 take care of you
for a while.

1197
01:11:13,561 --> 01:11:16,598
Keep you out of trouble.
Get you to L.A. safe.

1198
01:11:16,898 --> 01:11:18,513
I don't want you having to deal

1199
01:11:18,816 --> 01:11:21,273
with no more of them
motel men, you understand?

1200
01:11:21,569 --> 01:11:24,060
Jesus, I can't believe you.

1201
01:11:25,281 --> 01:11:27,397
Go ahead. Take care of yourself.

1202
01:11:27,700 --> 01:11:30,066
I'll miss you, Willie.

1203
01:12:13,496 --> 01:12:15,282
Willie, where's Frances?

1204
01:12:18,709 --> 01:12:20,950
What, is she getting breakfast?

1205
01:12:22,088 --> 01:12:24,295
Willie, where's Frances?

1206
01:12:24,590 --> 01:12:26,672
Where'd she go?

1207
01:13:23,774 --> 01:13:25,856
Look, Willie, I know
I'm not supposed

1208
01:13:26,152 --> 01:13:27,983
to feel sorry for myself.

1209
01:13:28,279 --> 01:13:30,235
And I know that you've
been through things

1210
01:13:30,531 --> 01:13:33,614
that are a million times
tougher than my life's been,

1211
01:13:33,910 --> 01:13:35,946
but I'm gonna miss her.

1212
01:13:36,245 --> 01:13:38,452
I'm really gonna miss her.

1213
01:13:38,748 --> 01:13:41,114
A man with a whole
lot of sense said:

1214
01:13:41,417 --> 01:13:45,080
"Blues ain't nothing
but a good man feeling bad,

1215
01:13:45,379 --> 01:13:48,496
thinking about the woman
he once was with."

1216
01:13:54,138 --> 01:13:56,379
You're gonna teach me the song.

1217
01:13:59,435 --> 01:14:01,016
Ain't no song.

1218
01:14:01,312 --> 01:14:04,896
I'm sorry, Eugene.
I lied to you.

1219
01:14:05,191 --> 01:14:08,183
I just wanted to get
out of that place so bad.

1220
01:14:08,486 --> 01:14:11,649
Robert give us 29 songs.

1221
01:14:11,948 --> 01:14:13,859
It was enough.

1222
01:14:14,158 --> 01:14:17,150
Never was a number 30,
not that I know of.

1223
01:14:17,453 --> 01:14:19,114
You gotta do it for yourself.

1224
01:14:19,413 --> 01:14:21,449
That's what Robert
would have told you.

1225
01:15:35,948 --> 01:15:37,813
Lots of towns,

1226
01:15:38,117 --> 01:15:39,903
lots of songs,

1227
01:15:40,202 --> 01:15:42,113
lots of women.

1228
01:15:42,413 --> 01:15:44,870
Good times. Bad times.

1229
01:15:46,709 --> 01:15:49,542
The only thing
I want anybody to say is:

1230
01:15:49,837 --> 01:15:52,294
"He could really play.

1231
01:15:52,590 --> 01:15:54,831
He was good.”

1232
01:16:48,437 --> 01:16:50,052
What are we stopping here for?

1233
01:16:50,356 --> 01:16:52,062
Why don't we head on
to fulton's point?

1234
01:16:52,358 --> 01:16:53,848
It can't be too far from here.

1235
01:16:54,151 --> 01:16:55,891
I gotta deal with something,
lightning,

1236
01:16:56,195 --> 01:16:57,731
or there ain't no going home.

1237
01:16:58,030 --> 01:16:59,440
What are you talking about?

1238
01:16:59,740 --> 01:17:01,480
What do you have to deal with?

1239
01:17:01,784 --> 01:17:03,524
Yeah, this is the one.

1240
01:17:03,828 --> 01:17:06,945
The hottest cathouse in the
great state of Mississippi.

1241
01:17:07,248 --> 01:17:08,988
Is this another lesson, Willie?

1242
01:17:09,291 --> 01:17:11,577
You listen and you'll find out.

1243
01:17:11,877 --> 01:17:14,038
These are some
old friends of mine.

1244
01:17:21,387 --> 01:17:25,050
A woman named Lily la fontaine
still live here?

1245
01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:28,932
Lily dead, long time.

1246
01:17:30,813 --> 01:17:32,269
You related?

1247
01:17:34,650 --> 01:17:36,356
You a friend of her?

1248
01:17:36,652 --> 01:17:37,767
Yes, ma'am.

1249
01:17:38,070 --> 01:17:40,732
I used to make music here
when Lily run the place.

1250
01:17:41,031 --> 01:17:42,737
Where are all the girls?

1251
01:17:43,033 --> 01:17:45,024
Boarding house now.

1252
01:17:45,327 --> 01:17:47,158
Got a room open.

1253
01:17:47,454 --> 01:17:50,992
That one over there keep wet
his mattress, so he going.

1254
01:17:52,251 --> 01:17:54,867
Lily always say you play
all the time

1255
01:17:55,171 --> 01:17:56,411
and flirt with the girls

1256
01:17:56,714 --> 01:18:00,332
and always in some mess
with the law.

1257
01:18:00,634 --> 01:18:02,465
Glad to be remembered.

1258
01:18:02,761 --> 01:18:04,626
It was such a long time ago.

1259
01:18:04,930 --> 01:18:08,388
My grandma talk about you a lot.

1260
01:18:08,684 --> 01:18:12,518
She was a real good woman,
your grandma.

1261
01:18:14,315 --> 01:18:16,226
I remember me and slim waterman

1262
01:18:16,525 --> 01:18:19,483
got into a fight over
her one time.

1263
01:18:19,778 --> 01:18:21,734
A real knockdown,

1264
01:18:22,031 --> 01:18:24,363
gouge-your-eyes-out
kind of fight.

1265
01:18:24,658 --> 01:18:27,024
Oh, yeah? Who won?

1266
01:18:27,328 --> 01:18:30,286
I don't know. I guess
we both took our lumps.

1267
01:18:30,581 --> 01:18:32,913
But she was a real good woman.

1268
01:18:36,170 --> 01:18:38,582
Somewhere around here

1269
01:18:38,881 --> 01:18:41,338
there's a real special place.

1270
01:18:47,389 --> 01:18:49,345
A crossroads

1271
01:18:52,269 --> 01:18:55,557
Willie: You know
the language I'm talking?

1272
01:18:58,317 --> 01:19:02,105
I need to get back
to the crossroads.

1273
01:19:02,404 --> 01:19:05,362
You tell me how to get there?

1274
01:19:13,540 --> 01:19:14,950
Holice?

1275
01:19:15,251 --> 01:19:16,411
Holice

1276
01:19:16,710 --> 01:19:20,578
you drive these fellas out
on grange road, past dockery's.

1277
01:19:40,651 --> 01:19:43,142
This is it

1278
01:19:43,445 --> 01:19:47,154
this is the place
where it all happened.

1279
01:19:47,449 --> 01:19:49,155
I tell you what you gotta do.

1280
01:19:49,451 --> 01:19:51,863
See, you go on over there
and start playing a piece.

1281
01:19:52,162 --> 01:19:53,527
Why?

1282
01:19:53,831 --> 01:19:55,822
Because there's a fella
I've got to see.

1283
01:19:56,125 --> 01:19:58,832
And if you're playing it right,
he's gonna come around.

1284
01:19:59,128 --> 01:20:02,120
Yeah, right, Willie.
Who is this guy?

1285
01:20:02,423 --> 01:20:03,913
Don't ask me who

1286
01:20:04,216 --> 01:20:06,628
you know damn well who.

1287
01:20:37,499 --> 01:20:39,785
Keep it going. You standing
at the crossroad now.

1288
01:20:40,085 --> 01:20:41,495
This is where it count.

1289
01:20:41,795 --> 01:20:44,076
Thought I wasn't supposed
to go to the crossroads, Willie.

1290
01:20:44,173 --> 01:20:46,960
We ain't here for you,
we here for me.

1291
01:21:07,905 --> 01:21:10,021
Man: Y'all need a ride?

1292
01:21:10,324 --> 01:21:13,111
What you waiting for, huh?

1293
01:21:13,410 --> 01:21:15,992
Come on, Willie. Let's get
to fulton's point, huh?

1294
01:21:16,288 --> 01:21:17,744
What time he coming around?

1295
01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:20,201
What time who coming around?

1296
01:21:20,501 --> 01:21:22,833
You don't be fooling with me.

1297
01:21:23,128 --> 01:21:24,334
I'm talking about legba.

1298
01:21:24,630 --> 01:21:27,713
Legba? Where you been at, slick?

1299
01:21:28,008 --> 01:21:30,750
He done changed
his name to scratch.

1300
01:21:31,053 --> 01:21:34,090
I don't want none of your sass.
I got business with the man.

1301
01:21:34,390 --> 01:21:36,346
Mean old bastard, ain't you?

1302
01:21:36,642 --> 01:21:38,507
Forget it, honey. He's crazy.

1303
01:21:38,811 --> 01:21:40,347
Now, y'all sure
you don't need a ride?

1304
01:21:40,646 --> 01:21:43,638
Ain't riding with
the likes of you, smart-ass.

1305
01:21:43,941 --> 01:21:45,101
Or your bitch neither.

1306
01:21:45,401 --> 01:21:47,687
Tsk-tsk-tsk.

1307
01:21:47,986 --> 01:21:50,693
Suit yourself, old man.

1308
01:21:55,077 --> 01:21:57,068
Scratch: You looking for me,
Willie brown?

1309
01:21:57,371 --> 01:22:01,114
Been a long time,
hasn't it, Willie?

1310
01:22:01,417 --> 01:22:03,282
Yes, yes, it has.

1311
01:22:03,585 --> 01:22:04,585
What's going on here?

1312
01:22:04,753 --> 01:22:07,745
Yes, sir, been a long time.

1313
01:22:08,048 --> 01:22:10,585
You about 17 last time
we saw each other.

1314
01:22:10,884 --> 01:22:13,671
One night on this old
crossroads, wasn't it?

1315
01:22:13,971 --> 01:22:15,677
What can I do for you,
Willie brown?

1316
01:22:15,973 --> 01:22:18,555
I come to see you,
tell you the deal's off.

1317
01:22:20,602 --> 01:22:21,602
Oh, no.

1318
01:22:21,770 --> 01:22:23,510
According to this here
piece of paper,

1319
01:22:23,814 --> 01:22:25,020
the deal's still on

1320
01:22:25,315 --> 01:22:28,022
you can tear that up
and give me some peace.

1321
01:22:28,318 --> 01:22:29,979
Why on earth would
I wanna do that?

1322
01:22:30,279 --> 01:22:32,019
Now, you sloughed up
on your end of things.

1323
01:22:32,322 --> 01:22:33,562
I didn't end up where I wanted.

1324
01:22:33,740 --> 01:22:35,660
I didn't end up with nothing.
Didn't get nothing!

1325
01:22:35,742 --> 01:22:38,199
You got what you were
supposed to get, bluesman.

1326
01:22:38,495 --> 01:22:41,487
Ain't nothing ever as good
as we want it to be.

1327
01:22:41,790 --> 01:22:45,658
But that ain't no reason
to break a deal

1328
01:22:45,961 --> 01:22:47,576
of course...

1329
01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:49,791
If you had something
to offer me.

1330
01:22:50,090 --> 01:22:51,580
I got a couple
of hundred dollars.

1331
01:22:51,884 --> 01:22:56,469
I ain't interested
in your money, you know that.

1332
01:22:59,183 --> 01:23:01,139
How about cutting heads?

1333
01:23:02,811 --> 01:23:04,096
Oh, I get it.

1334
01:23:04,396 --> 01:23:06,261
You want some kind
of contest, huh?

1335
01:23:06,565 --> 01:23:09,773
You're a real smart boy,
ain't you?

1336
01:23:10,068 --> 01:23:11,808
Well, smart boy...

1337
01:23:13,280 --> 01:23:15,066
I got a big white fella
from Memphis

1338
01:23:15,365 --> 01:23:17,777
made a deal with me
a few years back.

1339
01:23:18,076 --> 01:23:20,533
Real good guitar player,
name of Jack Butler.

1340
01:23:20,829 --> 01:23:23,571
Cuts heads every Saturday night.
Yes, sir.

1341
01:23:23,874 --> 01:23:26,411
He discourages a lot
of up-and-coming boys.

1342
01:23:26,710 --> 01:23:28,200
But Willie doesn't
even play guitar.

1343
01:23:28,504 --> 01:23:31,211
Oh, yeah. I forgot that.

1344
01:23:31,507 --> 01:23:33,213
Ain't that too bad

1345
01:23:33,509 --> 01:23:37,718
guess there ain't much hope
at all for Willie brown

1346
01:23:42,142 --> 01:23:44,133
unless you might wanna
sit in for him.

1347
01:23:44,436 --> 01:23:45,892
Don't do it.
Sure, he's my friend.

1348
01:23:46,188 --> 01:23:48,179
I don't believe in any
of this shit anyway.

1349
01:23:48,482 --> 01:23:50,063
I said, don't do it, lightning.

1350
01:23:50,359 --> 01:23:51,940
You win

1351
01:23:52,236 --> 01:23:53,851
I tear up Willie's contract.

1352
01:23:54,154 --> 01:23:56,770
But what happens
if my man Jack Butler win?

1353
01:24:00,619 --> 01:24:02,075
You get me.

1354
01:24:02,371 --> 01:24:04,908
I already got you.

1355
01:24:05,207 --> 01:24:07,698
Well, then, you got me too.

1356
01:24:08,001 --> 01:24:10,041
Shut up, you hear? I don't
want you making no deals.

1357
01:24:10,128 --> 01:24:12,148
Take it easy, Willie. I'm just
calling his bluff for you.

1358
01:24:12,172 --> 01:24:14,163
We'll get to fulton's point
after this.

1359
01:24:14,466 --> 01:24:16,172
Where and when for this thing?

1360
01:24:16,468 --> 01:24:19,005
Oh, I can get us there
real quick.

1361
01:24:19,304 --> 01:24:22,011
Jack Butler's gonna like you.

1362
01:25:07,019 --> 01:25:10,011
Js oh, brother, hush j

1363
01:25:10,314 --> 01:25:14,273
j hush, hush, hush j

1364
01:25:14,568 --> 01:25:19,107
j somebody's calling my name j

1368
01:25:30,834 --> 01:25:33,120
This is the mojo hand.

1369
01:25:33,420 --> 01:25:36,287
The I ouisiana voodoo charm.

1370
01:25:36,590 --> 01:25:39,252
The winning boy's magic.

1371
01:25:39,551 --> 01:25:41,542
You see, there's only one
last true mojo

1372
01:25:41,845 --> 01:25:43,176
left in the world

1373
01:25:43,472 --> 01:25:45,258
take it, lightning.

1374
01:25:45,557 --> 01:25:48,594
Take it and go up there
and do your stuff.

1375
01:25:48,894 --> 01:25:51,306
I'm giving you
all the magic I got.

1376
01:25:51,605 --> 01:25:54,722

1379
01:26:01,239 --> 01:26:02,479
Who's coming on up?

1380
01:26:02,783 --> 01:26:06,492
Who's gonna get their head cut?

1381
01:26:06,787 --> 01:26:10,029
How about you, chicken boy?

1382
01:26:10,332 --> 01:26:15,543
J oh, my lord,

1383
01:26:15,837 --> 01:26:19,955
I what shall I do? J'j'j

1384
01:26:28,475 --> 01:26:30,966
Well, well, well.

1385
01:26:31,269 --> 01:26:33,009
Who sent you here?

1386
01:26:33,313 --> 01:26:34,894
Can't talk, little man?

1387
01:26:36,274 --> 01:26:38,139
Bet can't play none either.

1388
01:26:48,161 --> 01:26:50,026
Uh-huh...

1389
01:35:21,883 --> 01:35:23,283
Willie:
Now, don't be standing there

1390
01:35:23,343 --> 01:35:25,174
with that dumb look
on your face. Let's go.

1391
01:35:25,470 --> 01:35:29,383
I'm sick of this
down-home Mississippi.

1392
01:35:29,682 --> 01:35:32,594
Living up north made
a city boy out of me.

1393
01:35:32,894 --> 01:35:35,306
I hear Chicago calling.

1394
01:35:35,605 --> 01:35:39,018
B.b. King and
Johnny shines saying:

1395
01:35:39,317 --> 01:35:42,104
"Where's the new kid in town?"

1396
01:35:42,403 --> 01:35:43,859
You ready for the windy city?

1397
01:35:44,155 --> 01:35:45,795
Sure, I was born ready.
Let's go get them.

1398
01:35:46,074 --> 01:35:49,532
All right. Now, after I show you
Chicago, you're on your own.

1399
01:35:49,827 --> 01:35:51,909
You understand?
Wait. Why can't I hang with you?

1400
01:35:52,205 --> 01:35:54,912
I mean, after Chicago,
we can move onto! A

1401
01:35:55,208 --> 01:35:56,823
that ain't the way the song go.

1402
01:35:57,126 --> 01:35:58,866
You gotta move on without me.

1403
01:35:59,170 --> 01:36:01,252
Take the music someplace else.

1404
01:36:01,547 --> 01:36:03,253
Take it past where you found it.

1405
01:36:03,549 --> 01:36:06,336
Because that's what we did.

1406
01:36:06,636 --> 01:36:08,342
We got a deal?

1407
01:36:11,224 --> 01:36:12,760
All right.

1408
01:36:16,771 --> 01:36:19,103
You know something, lightning?
What?

1409
01:36:19,399 --> 01:36:21,890
I'm tired of all this
walking and hitchhiking.

1410
01:36:22,193 --> 01:36:25,151
I wanna go to Chicago in style.

1411
01:36:25,446 --> 01:36:28,859
I wanna fly in an airplane.
