you can follow my trail because Iain't gonna camp. And there tonight.

(16:10):
This is this? Howid this stuffright here? Eh? This is it?
All right? Gold? Sure?Don't look what I like? I
thought it what it's just sad,it's sad. Yeah, it's just like
plain sand. Don't glitter. Ithought it would glitter. Oh, glitter
when it's refined. But that's anotherguy's job. Yeah, you got to
know how to recognize it, notat all, not to find it,

(16:33):
not by a long shot. Yougotta know how to pick her so she'll
come out. Yeah, it's mightyrich is sand. You'll take good?
How good? Oh about twenty ounceto a ton at some twenty dollars ant?
How many times can we handle it? Well, it depends on how
hard we work. Wellybody, picka camp down the mountain a bit.
When I do that and The goalis here. In case anybody happens by

(16:55):
bandits, their soldiers chasing their Indians, or a pretty woman out for a
store. That case, we'll tellhim our hunters and maybe we'd get away
with it. Me money. Itwouldn't it be easier just to file a
quaim easier maybe, but not soprofitable. There wouldn't be no time for
the necessary of one of those bigmining companies. You're gonna write up here
with a paper in his hand,Jones, we had no right to be
here. Well, how does itsee you, fellows, to be a

(17:18):
man of property. I'm sorry aboutthe first we kicked up, Pop.
I guess we was pretty dumb.Yeah, I only made it. And
we're here men of property. Whatare you though? Yeah, everything's going
to be all right. From nowon, everything's going to be fire,
Sure it is? Why not?Why not? Why laugh? Where?

(17:38):
I'm we to find out? Copy? Yeah, we'll find out. Our
stars will return in the moment withact too of the Treasure of the Sierra

(18:02):
Madres. Say John, do youknow what color stockings are the greatest headache
to photograph? Oh? Skim tone? Now black? Well? The wardrobe
people at Warner Brothers were telling methat the Black Opera ranked nylons Joan Crawford
wears in Flamingo Road had to bewashed ever so carefully. You see the
camera picks up the slightest imperfection.They looked wonderful. I remember, so

(18:26):
I strongly suspects Luck's Flakes. Naturally, Hollywood studios dependend on these tiny diamonds.
They're so fast and so rich.They freshen nylons safely in no time.
Hollywood's way is the same care.Millions of girls give their nylons well.
Smart girls realize that it's foolish torisk strong soap or cake soap rubbings.

(18:48):
These things make stockings go in tooruns in short order. String tests
prove it, prove that stockings washedwith Luck's Flakes last prices level. And
what I help that is when yougive stocking hardware well. Joan's Nihlon's got
a good workout in Flamingo Roads leftamiblicly corny dance she does is magnificence.
Sidney Greenstreet will tell you that shepacks quite a haymaker too. He took

(19:11):
it on the gin in one oftheir violent scenes together. And Zachary Scott
as the whiskling Joan really loves makesa wonderful contract. Joan does a very
convincing job too, as a carnivalgirl who fights her way up the social
ladder. But you know, Iwas thinking afterwards that no matter how much
money she had, she couldn't finda better safer care for her costliest nylons

(19:34):
than Luck's flakes and therewithin the reachof every girl. That's true, It's
no wonder over ninety percent of themakers of Fuckings recommend Luck Flake. Here's
our producer, William Keeley, Acttwo of the Treasure of the Sierra Madre,
starting Humphrey Bogotte as Dobbs and WalterHouston as Howard. Oh. For

(20:07):
a month we we didn't mind aglen of ore. There were things to
do, first, sitting up camp, crow out of the birds, and
flue way off the creek to washup the gold. Finally, the time
come when we weighed our first tickof the treasure. How much? Howard?
How much you thinking? We got? Who about five thousand dollars?
Whether recog it's not bad? Whendo we start dividing it up? Why
divide it not? The time comeswe all going back together I am for

(20:30):
dividing as we go along, likeeach guy responsible for his own goods.
Well, I just don't have itthat way. I haven't liked the responsibility
of guarding your treasure any too.Well. Who asked you to pop?
Yeah that's right, Yeah, younever asked me. Only I thought I
was almost trustworthy of the three you. How come I said trustworthy as far

(20:51):
as being honest, Well, noone can say. I don't get it.
I suppose you were charged with takingcare of the goods. One day,
I am deep in the brush andcurtains on his way to the last
to get provisions. That'll be yourbig chance to pack up and leave us
the cold. Only a guy that'sa step and heart would think me likely
to pull a stunt like that.Well, right now, I wouldn't be
worth your while. But well,when the pile is grown, yes,

(21:12):
sir, such, well, thinkof such things you will. Yeah,
how about yourself? No me,Well, I'm not picking the feet any
longer. You fellows are a lottougher. When we started out. You'd
have me strung up on no time. That's why I think I'm the most
trusted for me. I'm looking atit that way. I guess you're right,
But that's too like Dob says,divide the proceeds every night, Well

(21:33):
by me, gentlemen, and eachone of us will have to hide his
share of the treasure from the othertwo. Huh, well why not?
Having done so, he'll have tobe forever on the watch to see that
he's hiding place is not discovered.And what a dirty, filthy mind you
got. Ah, No, no, not dirty, not dirty baby.
Only I know what kind of ideaseven supposedly decent people get when goals at

(21:55):
stake. All right, curtain havingthem waying scales here she goes only three
ways. Bennison still should tastes good. Tough it's done he had before alone.

(22:15):
Yeah, how many something puff?What are you gonna do with all
your hard earned money? Well,reckon, I'll settle down some quiet place,
getting a little business, hardware,grocery store, spend the better part
of my time reading comic scripts andadventure stores. One thing is for sure,
I'm not going prospecting again. What'sall that about? Oh it's John
Doddie telling each other what we'll dowhen we get back. For me,

(22:37):
I got it all figured. Firstoff, I'm gonna get a brand new
set of Dad's a dozen of everything, and I'm going to a swell cafe
order everything on the bill of fare. And if it ain't just right,
and even if it is, I'mgonna ball out the manager and make him
figure it all back. What's nexton the program? Oh? What would
be? You know what? Weought to put up some kind of a

(23:02):
limit on our take glee. Nowthat when we get so much where we'd
just pull up steaks and beat itfor kind of a limit. Oh say,
twenty five thousand dollars worth of eachman, twenty five thousand small potatoes
fifty anyway, seventy five would bemore like it. I'm young, I
need dough and plenty of it.No, he was making hobbs of a
sog am. I however, youdon't know it. I'd be within my
rights if i'd a man it halfagain as much as you get. How

(23:25):
come, well, I put upthe lion's share of the cast, didn't
I? Well, so you didjobs. You know it was pay any
civilized place, the biggest investor getsthe biggest returned dollan. That's one thing
in favor of the wilds, Notthat I intended to demand it, but
I'd be within my rights if Idid so. Next time you go calling
me a hob, just remember whatI could have done if I'd wanted.

(23:47):
It's funny, ain't it? TopYeah? Real funny sleeping. I'm not
that dumb. Say them guys tryto put anything over on me. It'll
if Bushley went for both of themanymore lip bot of them and no,

(24:11):
I'll let them have it. Youknow what's good for you? You don't
monkey around with fred C. Dobbhuh oh h oh, nothing but look
Dad's sign when the guy starts talkingto me. Who else am I going
to talk to? Certainly not foryou are curtain And don't get the idea
you two are putting anything over onme. I know what your game is.

(24:33):
You know more than I do.Why am I elected to go to
the village tomorrow? Why am meinstead of you are curtain time? I'd
be going to give you plenty ofchance to discover why I hit my goods,
wouldn't it You're going to hear alongthose lines I wanted to take your
goods with you. I want torun the risk of avenue taken from me
by bandits. They kill you anyway, Dodsy, just for the sport of
it. Ah, So that's it. You're hoping bandits will get me.

(24:56):
I'd save you to a lot oftrouble, wouldn't it, h DoD forget
about it. Hell, I ain'tgoing to the village. See, you
can go back and tell that tokid, Okay, Pardner, I'll tell
him. Curtain went down the villagefor provisions. You don't stand up coming

(25:18):
back with soldiers in the village chasingbandits. That wasn't all. He met
up with the Americans on my nameCody, and he kept popping me.
Followed me into the store. Wantedto know what I was doing here?
What did you tell him? Isaid, I was a hunter, a
professional hunter. Kept asking me,did I see anything up here that looked
like gold? Shook him off,Curtain got rid of him. Mine,
I couldn't he followed me. Yousure he traded it? Yeah? I'm

(25:41):
sure. What makes you so positive? Because every time, because if you
turn around you can see for yourselfthere he is. Hell, all right,
you walk over here to the fire, I get to not want it?
Huh, I just couldn't. Itwas just a chance to sit around
a Joe with in America. Idon't make any mistake, mister. We

(26:03):
got no use for you with fullup, no vacancies. Go back where
you came from. Take our blessingwith your thanks. I'll give me,

for butting in. There's no wildgame around here worth going after that.
Yeah, you're right, you see, you're right. That's why it's made
of her mindset clear out. Yetit might be pretty good ground for something
else. I told you in thevillage. There's no gold around here,

Huh you found gold here? Iknow it because I know it. You'll
have to do one a free thingsand looks telling us what we gotta do.
One of three things. Kill me, run me off, or take
me in his apartment. Well,let's consider the first. If you start

(27:56):
chilling people, just how far youprepared to go with it? I may
come along tomorrow. Not much.We'd shop at mister to protect our interests.
I don't say that killing me isn'tthe answer. As for choice number
two, you run me off,and I might very well inform on you.
Twenty five percent of your goal isthe reward i'd get. It's a
pretty strong argument in favor of killingyou. I don't deny it. But

point there, Dodgy, No questionbut that. But the killer man,

as gentlemen, about a dozen.I'm one of the village. Must have
told them about the American hunter uphere. Well, we better start taking

(29:47):
a way to defend ourselves. Couldtry hiding the rocks, but when we'd
lose the birds and the whole outfit, and no. The best thing for
us to make a fight of iteither that you three against them, or
that's four. Now I guess it'sus four. Yeah, we'll sell you
o case later. If you're alive. He's got something there dot. That's

Texas. Yeah, the picture thegirl, little kid, and she's
his wife. Huh, it's notbad. Well, I guess you'd better

(31:30):
take a hold for him. Funnyhow it's all worked out. We didn't
have to shoot him after all.Gentlemen, if you's asked me, I'd
say it's about time we considered leavingthis mountain. How much gold do you
