:39:00
Physical. They wouldn't take me.
:39:02
Morning after Pearl, I was the first man
at Marine Recruiting in Sand City.
:39:06
They wouldn't take me.
:39:08
Tough.
:39:09
What do you do in Los Angeles,
Mr. Macreedy?
:39:11
I'm retired.
:39:14
You might say
I was forced into retirement.
:39:22
What were you looking for in Adobe Flat?
:39:25
Like I told you, I was looking
for a fellow named Komako.
:39:28
And like you told me, he wasn't there.
:39:33
- What's so funny?
- Nothing.
:39:36
Just I don't believe you.
:39:39
I believe a man is as big
as what he is seeking.
:39:41
I believe you are a big man, Mr. Macreedy.
:39:44
Flattery will get you nowhere.
:39:45
Why would a man like you
be looking for a lousy Jap farmer?
:39:49
- You can't tell. Maybe I'm not so big.
- Yes, you are.
:39:53
I believe a man is as big
as what will make him mad.
:39:57
Nobody around here seems big enough
to get you mad.
:39:59
- What makes you mad, Mr. Smith?
- Me?
:40:02
- Nothing.
- You're a pretty big man yourself.
:40:07
- The Japanese make you mad, don't they?
- Well, that's different.
:40:11
After that sneak attack
on Pearl Harbor. Bataan.
:40:15
- Komako made you mad?
- It's the same thing.
:40:18
Loyal Japanese-Americans. That's a laugh.
:40:21
They're all mad dogs.
What about Corregidor, the Death March?
:40:25
What did Komako
have to do with Corregidor?
:40:28
He was a Jap, wasn't he?
:40:30
Look, Mr. Macreedy.
:40:32
There's a law in this county
against shooting dogs.
:40:35
But when I see a mad dog,
I don't wait for him to bite me.
:40:39
I swear,
you're beginning to make me mad.
:40:41
All strangers do.
:40:43
No, they don't. Not all of them.
:40:46
Some do
when they come around snooping.
:40:48
- Snooping for what?
- I don't know.
:40:50
Outsiders coming in
looking for something.
:40:52
- Looking for what?
- I don't know!
:40:54
Somebody's always looking for something
in this part of the West.
:40:58
To the historian, it's the Old West.
To the book writer, it's the Wild West.
