McCabe & Mrs. Miller

1:24:02
The law is here to protect
a little guy like yourself, McCabe.

1:24:06
And I'm at your service, free of charge.
1:24:09
-Free?
-That's what I said.

1:24:12
You don't have to pay me anything.
1:24:15
It would be an honor for the next senator
from the state of Washington...

1:24:18
to be your servant
before the scales of justice.

1:24:23
-That's mighty decent of you.
-When a man, McCabe....

1:24:26
When a man goes into the wilderness...
1:24:28
and with his bare hands,
gives birth to a small enterprise...

1:24:32
nourishes it and tends it while it grows....
1:24:35
I'm here to tell you that no sons of bitches
are going to take it away from him.

1:24:39
Now ain't that right?
You're damn right it's right.

1:24:46
You take that company,
Harrison Shaughnessy.

1:24:48
They have stockholders.
1:24:51
Do you think they want their stockholders
and the public...

1:24:54
thinking their management
isn't imbued with fair play and justice...

1:24:59
the very values that make this country
what it is today?

1:25:03
Busting up these trusts and monopolies...
1:25:06
is at the very root of the problem
of creating a just society.

1:25:12
McCabe, I'm here to tell you that
this free enterprise system of ours works.

1:25:16
And working within it,
we can protect the small businessman...

1:25:20
and the big businessman as well.
1:25:25
Well, I just didn't want to get killed.
1:25:30
Until people stop dying for freedom,
they ain't going to be free.

1:25:43
I can see it now, on the front page
of The Washington Post...

1:25:47
right next to a picture
of William Jennings Bryan:

1:25:50
"McCabe strikes a blow for the little guy."
1:25:54
You will become a famous man, McCabe.
1:25:57
We can find ourselves having dinner
with William Jennings Bryan.
