Join the army lads. Three square
meals a day and good pay.
:17:09
When the Irish came, the city was
in a fever.
:17:12
Since the time of the great famine
they'd come streaming off the boats.
:17:17
And they got a right warm welcome.
:17:19
Go back to Ireland, you
dumb Mick!
:17:20
You'll remember that!
:17:22
Get back on the boat, Paddy!
:17:24
I came only 2 hours down
river from Hell Gate...
:17:28
..but they all took me
for an immigrant.
:17:30
Why not?
:17:31
There were a 1000 different
accents in New York..
:17:34
..and to the Natives you see,
they were all the same.
:17:39
Come here to take the chill off
your soul and the weight off your heart.
:17:43
Welcome to America son, your long
arduous journey is over.
:17:46
Go back to your own country.
:17:48
Vote Tammany!
:17:49
America for Americans!
:17:56
New York loved William
Tweed and hated him.
:18:00
And those of us trying
to be thieves....
:18:02
...we couldn't help but
admire him.
:18:05
Mr. Cutting. Gentlemen.
:18:06
Thank you for coming.
It's an honour.
:18:08
Mr. Tweed?
:18:12
Sir! Please! Excuse me?
:18:14
I think your're frightening
them.
:18:16
So?
:18:17
Don't mind him, he used to
be an Irishman.
:18:22
The Five Points!
:18:24
Murderer's Alley. Brickbat Mansion.
:18:27
The Gates of hell!
:18:29
In this wild place....
:18:31
Look upon the face of this
poor child.
:18:35
She lives in squalor, in this
godforsaken den of vice and
misery behind me.
:18:42
Every year the Reformers came.
:18:44
Every year the Points got
worse.
:18:48
As if it liked being dirty.
:18:51
Where am I going to go?
:18:52
Move.
:18:53
The Reverend wants you out
of here.
