00:00:00Well, this is the long-awaited night for all of us.

00:00:27A world of joy, a giant toy, that's never really played with.

00:00:40A path to climb, so little time, someone to share the way with.

00:00:53So many do's, too many don'ts, a game that must be tried.

00:01:05A time of need, so much to be, all this has been my life.

00:01:18A dream is born, and lives and grows, and then turns into nothing.

00:01:29That silent scream, someone must see, it's not too late for something.

00:01:41It's more important than a road, much bigger than the sky.

00:01:53And yet so small, yet touched by all, yet this has been my life.

00:02:03And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:02:24I can't believe, I'm really me, I feel so much, yet nothing.

00:02:39I stand sometimes, with friends of mine, I reach, but I can't touch them.

00:02:52Alone I'd stand, yet hand in hand, I'd share both joy and strife.

00:03:04A time of good, that's understood, because it's been my life.

00:03:21And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:03:31A time of good, that's understood, because it's been my life.

00:03:41And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:03:51And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:04:01And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:04:11And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:04:21And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:04:31And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:04:41And I'm awfully wise, if I realize, what a precious, precious gift life is.

00:04:51Hey, dear.

00:04:53Come on, sugar.

00:04:55We won't stay long, please.

00:04:57Well, we'll just have a few drinks.

00:05:00A few laughs.

00:05:03No, May.

00:05:07All right, Mr. Blue.

00:05:09Go get your little hamburger and malt and go home.

00:05:12Go home and live it up.

00:05:13But I won't be with you, chum.

00:05:15I haven't spent all this time with you to walk away from tonight.

00:05:17Look, May.

00:05:18Don't make me.

00:05:19I've waited too long for this moment, Big Daddy.

00:05:22Now, if you want to sit around and miss out on the good times, that is fine.

00:05:25But don't expect anyone else to.

00:05:29If you've got the guts to take me, darling, I am ready to go.

00:05:33I'm warning you, May.

00:05:34Don't go.

00:05:35Just don't go.

00:05:36And just what are you going to do about it if I do?

00:05:52Don't worry about it, Billy.

00:05:53I'll take care of her.

00:05:56Oh, you do that, Carl.

00:06:07Here.

00:06:09That's for your trouble.

00:06:11Thanks, sport.

00:06:12And when you want some action, another babysitter, call me, will you?

00:06:16Yeah, sure.

00:06:17Mr. Churman?

00:06:18Seems you like your little boy.

00:06:21He's so cute.

00:06:22He's so sweet.

00:06:24He's so kind.

00:06:25He's so sweet.

00:06:26He's so sweet.

00:06:27He's couldn't live a day without him.

00:06:30And he's so sweet.

00:06:32He'll do anything for you.

00:06:35He'll do anything for me.

00:06:38He'll do anything for you.

00:06:41He'll do anything for you.

00:06:43He'll do anything for you.

00:06:46Seems you lost a fan, Billy.

00:06:50Lost a fan?

00:06:54Well, you never had one, sewer mouth.

00:06:59What are you doing here anyway?

00:07:01Telling bad news about poor country folk?

00:07:05I wasn't aware that you were poor.

00:07:08Picture?

00:07:09Here, sugar.

00:07:11You ought to get one of this.

00:07:13Mr. Billy Blue.

00:07:15Slop to the eyeball.

00:07:29Come on, Harve.

00:07:35Are you all right, Harvey?

00:07:36Yeah, Joe. I'll handle this.

00:07:37Quiet down, everyone. It's going to be all right. Enjoy yourselves.

00:07:41Open your bones.

00:07:44Let's call it a draw.

00:07:46No more fighting in here.

00:07:48Billy, you ought to know better.

00:07:50Drunk or not,

00:07:52you can hit, Billy.

00:07:54I'm sure all your fans would love to have a picture of you stinking drunk.

00:07:59Give me that!

00:08:04Get me a double scotch.

00:08:06Put it on Mr. Blue's check.

00:08:11Tell me all this, Harvey, and we'll fix that cut.

00:08:13I want to talk to you.

00:08:16I'll be seeing you, Billy.

00:08:18Be sure and read our next issue.

00:08:24Just relax.

00:08:26Take it easy.

00:08:37Why did that have to happen?

00:08:41Man, that stuff ain't getting it.

00:08:47Would you give me a couple of them pills?

00:08:49Hey, man, cool it.

00:08:53Look, that reporter's no buddy of ours.

00:08:57As a matter of fact, I think we just made an enemy out of a bad friend.

00:09:02And these ain't no aspirin.

00:09:07On top of that, fools, they'll bomb you right out of your mind.

00:09:21That's what I want.

00:09:23I want you to know that.

00:09:25I want you to know that.

00:09:28I want you to know that.

00:09:32I want you to know that.

00:09:34I want you to know that.

00:09:37We don't wish to, as you say, slander your client, uh, Mr. Blue.

00:09:44But we do owe our readers the truth about their items.

00:09:50Mr. Oliver, you and I both know very well, and especially Mr. Tripp,

00:09:55that one can't slant the printed words.

00:09:58Now, I don't ask you not to print Mr. Tripp's article.

00:10:01I'm only asking that you state in it that Billy Blue has been on a long and strenuous tour.

00:10:07That he's very tired from all of his record dates and personal appearances.

00:10:11And at the time, he was not responsible for the acts which you have here in these photographs.

00:10:19In other words, give us a break.

00:10:21Just give us a break.

00:10:26Listen, Reba, you're not fooling anybody.

00:10:28And neither is Blue.

00:10:30He's a pill head and a drunk.

00:10:32That's not true, Harvey. He's been sick, that's all.

00:10:34No, I don't want to hear it.

00:10:36Billy's not that down-home, corn-poned, collared green boy that rode out on a freight and became the idol of country western.

00:10:45But I'll make a deal with you.

00:10:48I want to know what makes Billy tick.

00:10:51I want to know the truth about those rumors that keep flying around about him.

00:10:55In other words, I want an exclusive, intimate, inside story about Mr. Billy Blue.

00:11:02Now, wait a minute, Harvey.

00:11:04He's not going to like that at all.

00:11:06And especially since it's you.

00:11:09You two have been scrapping with each other for a long time.

00:11:14He might refuse even if I ask.

00:11:16Reba, I'll let you review everything I write about him.

00:11:20It might even help you with your plea.

00:11:22But if Billy refuses, we'll not only print this story and these pictures, but I'll dog him till I nail him.

00:11:32That's blackmail, Harvey.

00:11:35Take it or leave it, Miss Stone.

00:11:42And I think your traveling and being with us, Mr. Tripp, will be kind of a trip.

00:11:46Not to mention the great publicity we'll be getting in your magazine. Right, Billy?

00:11:49Look, Carl. I've already agreed he could go.

00:11:53But let's get one thing straight.

00:11:56Harvey here don't like me, Annie, and baby, I assure you there's no love lost on this side either.

00:12:02So let's just stop all this phony routine back and forth, alright?

00:12:06If you want to kiss his behind, you kiss it all you want, but don't expect me to go with you.

00:12:10Billy!

00:12:13You promised.

00:12:16I'm sorry, Reba.

00:12:19I just don't like this idea of meddling in my private life.

00:12:23It's all I've got.

00:12:27But I'm stuck with it.

00:12:29So when you crows are through picking me and laying it out,

00:12:33will you let me know?

00:12:36Because right now I'm taking my daughter for a pony ride.

00:12:46Mmm. Mmm-mmm-mmm.

00:12:49Hush now, sugar.

00:12:53You and Mama fight all the time.

00:12:56Don't you love each other anymore?

00:12:59Sure we do, sugar.

00:13:03Can't we ever have fun anymore?

00:13:11Kathy.

00:13:16Oh. Oh, God.

00:13:22We used to have fun.

00:13:26Didn't we?

00:13:46Now to put the serve on your pancakes and the cream in your coffee.

00:13:50The man you've all been saving your egg money to see, the one and only,

00:13:54the king, that man himself, Mr. Billy Blue!

00:14:16That man himself, Mr. Billy Blue!

00:14:38Hey, what's going on?

00:14:45Give me a kiss.

00:14:55Don't put it on my head.

00:15:16Thank you, old buddy.

00:15:18And now, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Billy Blue.

00:15:22Wait a minute. Come here. Come here. Come here.

00:15:28Let's say hello to the people.

00:15:31Okay?

00:15:35Say hello to the people.

00:15:38Say hello to the people.

00:15:41Say hello to the people.

00:15:45What's your name?

00:15:49Don't tell me. Tell the people.

00:15:53Look at this.

00:15:55He hasn't been sober in three weeks.

00:15:58He's blown the last eight dates we have.

00:16:01The owners want their money back. The fans are walking out in the middle of the performance.

00:16:04The bookers are frantic. They're threatening to sue.

00:16:07Thank you, old buddy.

00:16:10And now, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Billy Blue.

00:16:15I'm on my way out.

00:16:18He's out of his mind.

00:16:20He's crazy.

00:16:23Stick around.

00:16:25He may get better later in the evening.

00:16:33I came to help at home.

00:16:35I haven't stolen a pig since I was ten years old.

00:16:38Listen, if you don't cut out all that sniggering and giggling,

00:16:42we ain't gonna steal one.

00:16:44All we gonna get is a load of buckshot.

00:16:52Quit rattling your mouth and come on.

00:17:02I don't see why we don't just buy one anyway.

00:17:13Come on.

00:17:24Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

00:22:40What's your name?

00:22:46Oh well.

00:22:50Oh well.

00:22:59See ya.

00:23:16Well now, ain't this something? I knew I'd find you here.

00:23:26Now listen, Billy, I don't...

00:23:28Just shut your mouth, flash peddler. And pack your things and get out. You're through.

00:23:33But Billy, I really don't know how to...

00:23:34I said, get out!

00:23:40Go, go! Go, go!

00:23:43Don't let him go!

00:23:47Stop!

00:23:51Stop! Please don't do it!

00:24:16You can't... you can't...

00:24:38You can't... you can't...

00:24:47Oh no!

00:24:49No, no, no...

00:25:12No, he killed him!

00:25:20New York Times. L.A. Times.

00:25:24Chicago Tribune.

00:25:26London Gazette.

00:25:28Louisville Sun-Times.

00:25:30You sure did it, Harvey.

00:25:32You scooped the whole damn country, even your own byline.

00:25:35Just put it in my check, Pappy.

00:25:37Now, I think this should be good for at least two or three follow-ups for the magazine.

00:25:43Prison stuff, family, you know.

00:25:46Let's see.

00:25:48On the cover, we'll feature the...

00:25:50No, Ron. Forget it.

00:25:53What's the matter?

00:25:54No follow-ups.

00:25:56What do you mean?

00:25:57You got the hottest story of the year and you're not bird-dogging it?

00:26:00What's the matter with you? You crazy?

00:26:02I don't think he did it.

00:26:03Who cares? He pleaded guilty.

00:26:05We can increase our circulation a quarter of a million.

00:26:08I don't give a damn about your circulation.

00:26:10I think he got a bum deal.

00:26:12I think he's covering up for his wife.

00:26:14And now that it's over, I kind of feel sorry and I like the kid.

00:26:18So, forget it, Ron.

00:26:20Bury it. Bury it!

00:26:23That's a new one.

00:26:25The vulture falling in love with his meal.

00:26:28You want me to throw up now?

00:26:32Listen, you two-bit reporter.

00:26:35This story's worth $100,000 to the magazine.

00:26:38And before I pass up that kind of cash, I'd smear him all over the wall.

00:26:44Bury it.

00:26:47You bet I'll bury it.

00:26:50Right in his head.

00:26:51And you would too because you're nothing.

00:26:54You're a lousy piece of nothing.

00:26:57I quit!

00:26:59Quit?

00:27:00You're fired!

00:27:01You're here!

00:27:03Fired!

00:27:04Billy Blue faces prison term for manslaughter.

00:27:08Famed country-western singer Billy Blue was found guilty

00:27:11in the voluntary manslaughter of his agent Carlton Jacobs

00:27:14with a jury in Anderson County.

00:27:16And the judge sentenced him to three years in hard labor.

00:27:21Ten minutes, Blue.

00:27:51Hey, you're gonna mess up that pretty little thing, sugar.

00:27:55I'm sorry.

00:27:57I was with a crybaby.

00:28:08You're doing all right, buddy.

00:28:10I can see where you're shooting with them guns.

00:28:13I'm not shooting.

00:28:14I'm not shooting.

00:28:16I'm not shooting.

00:28:18I'm not shooting.

00:28:20I'm gonna shoot you with one of them big stakes

00:28:22from down smokey Joe's in Louisville.

00:28:27You wouldn't be in here if you hadn't pleaded guilty.

00:28:35Now is, mate.

00:28:38Disappeared.

00:28:41Your baby?

00:28:43Well, she's fine.

00:28:46Look, the folks took her home.

00:28:50We would have brought her if you...

00:28:51No, I'm glad you didn't.

00:28:55I mean, it was more interesting seeing you something like this.

00:29:00And you know she's divorcing you, Billy.

00:29:05And taking everything.

00:29:06I know.

00:29:09Look, I...

00:29:11I told my lawyer...

00:29:15I mean, May and I made... we made this deal.

00:29:19But you can fight her.

00:29:20I don't want to fight her, Al.

00:29:24I mean, she gave the baby to my folks.

00:29:27And I told her that she could have everything else.

00:29:29I mean, it's nothing but money anyway, man.

00:29:32If you just let me wring her little rotten neck a little, I'll tell her what really happened.

00:29:39Maybe.

00:29:43You think it would do any good?

00:29:50Maybe not.

00:29:53But I sure get me some satisfaction.

00:30:03You're the best.

00:30:06The best friend a guy could ever have.

00:30:12I mean, you're more than anybody could ever ask for.

00:30:20I wish so much that things could have been different.

00:30:29Okay, Bill.

00:30:33Hey, would you guys do me a favor?

00:30:40Would you...

00:30:42Would you take care of Kathy for me?

00:30:44Would you...

00:30:46Would you take care of Kathy for me?

00:31:15No!

00:31:21All right, let's move!

00:31:45All right, Blue.

00:31:47Hand out them tools.

00:31:50Coming out, boss.

00:31:51All right, come out.

00:32:15All right, let's get it on.

00:32:19We ain't got all day to hoe this patch.

00:32:28Your mom and your papa will.

00:32:30And we all send our love to you, Billy.

00:32:34Love, Reba.

00:32:36One of these days, I'm gonna sprawl me some wings

00:32:40and fly away from this place.

00:32:44Justin, you keep on runnin'.

00:32:45Every time they take those chains off you,

00:32:47that's gonna be a lot sooner than you think about those wings.

00:32:51I'll be back.

00:32:52I'll be back.

00:32:53I'll be back.

00:32:54I'll be back.

00:32:55I'll be back.

00:32:56I'll be back.

00:32:57I'll be back.

00:32:58I'll be back.

00:32:59I'll be back.

00:33:00I'll be back.

00:33:01I'll be back.

00:33:02I'll be back.

00:33:03I'll be back.

00:33:04She's gonna be waiting for those wings.

00:33:06Yeah, I know.

00:33:08But I just can't help it.

00:33:10It ain't so bad in the daytime.

00:33:13But at night,

00:33:15when everything is quiet,

00:33:19them crickets clacking out there like everythign,

00:33:23I lay in there in that bunk,

00:33:26and I get to thinkin' of that gal of mine back in Oak River,

00:33:31and man, oh, man,

00:33:34Yeah. I know. Things sure are a lot different when you ain't there.

00:33:45Man, you ain't got no worry. You're getting out soon on parole.

00:33:49Yeah. I am so sick of this.

00:33:55Coming out, boss.

00:33:57Coming in, boss.

00:34:00Yes, sir, boss.

00:34:02No, sir, boss.

00:34:04Boss this and boss that.

00:34:07Kind of gets to your guts after a couple of years.

00:34:10Man, it ain't so hard. I've had ten years of it and ten more to go.

00:34:19Justin, if I had ten years to go, I'd probably be running right along with you.

00:34:35Tell me, Billy, what are you going to do the first minute you get out of here, huh?

00:34:42I don't know, man.

00:34:48I don't know.

00:35:09Hello there.

00:35:16Hi, John.

00:35:17Hi, Preacher.

00:35:19I'd like to say a couple of words to the benefits. All right with you?

00:35:21That's all right.

00:35:23All right, man. Let's listen up here.

00:35:27Now, this is a new preacher. He's got a few words he wants to say to you.

00:35:33I don't think you ought to be out here, Preacher. I think you ought to keep it to the church.

00:35:38No offense, John.

00:35:41This is my church. Thanks anyway.

00:35:45All right, man. Let's gather around.

00:35:48Men, you may not believe this, but I'm here to offer you some life assurance at no cost.

00:35:59You fellas think I'm putting you out. I'm not.

00:36:03This is a plan that none of you can afford to ignore.

00:36:08It's a plan that begins paying benefits even before maturity.

00:36:17This is the plan.

00:36:20It's God's plan for your life.

00:36:23And in these pages, you will meet the planner, Jesus Christ,

00:36:31who together with the Father and the Holy Spirit have already put together your eternal life assurance plan.

00:36:44Now, men, one of the most priceless gifts that one man can give to another is this holy word of God.

00:36:54Hey, break these chains and I'll join you right now, Preacher.

00:37:04Very good, my friend. Name's Bob. What's yours?

00:37:09Moses, and I'm stuck in bondage.

00:37:14Moses, look.

00:37:18Trusting God is gut real.

00:37:22It's not making any promises or breaking any chains.

00:37:27It's saying, look, Lord.

00:37:29I told you, man. The chains. The chains.

00:37:33And the name is Justin, stupid, not Moses.

00:37:38Okay, Justin.

00:37:41You want to be free physically. I can't do anything about that.

00:37:46But I can show you how to become spiritually free if you'll just use this tool.

00:37:52You got a hacksaw under your coat?

00:37:54No.

00:37:57I've got a sharper tool right here in my hand.

00:38:02It's forged with love and understanding.

00:38:06It's sharper than any hacksaw.

00:38:08You're my backjack. You're bugging me.

00:38:12Good. Then I know you'll read it.

00:38:15It won't take you long. You'll be done in no time.

00:38:19Time?

00:38:21What do you know about time?

00:38:23I spent ten years in these chains, man.

00:38:26That's time. Ten!

00:38:29Hey, do me a favor.

00:38:31Go to hell.

00:38:34Breathe! Breathe!

00:38:41Breathe!

00:38:44Breathe!

00:38:50Hey, man!

00:38:55Come here.

00:38:58No more violence.

00:39:00Good enough.

00:39:02Come on, Justin. Come on.

00:39:05Get the hell away from me, preacher.

00:39:07I'm not buying your crap about God, love and freedom.

00:39:11Or your stupid Bible.

00:39:14Or anything else.

00:39:16All forms of violence are wrong.

00:39:19The Son of Man didn't agree with violence either.

00:39:24You men want to be physically free.

00:39:27I can't do anything about that. I told you that.

00:39:31But I can offer you the solution to your problem.

00:39:36It's a flesh and blood relationship to Jesus Christ.

00:39:42That's what it is.

00:39:45Now, this Sunday, if the sun's shining like today,

00:39:50we'll hold services out in the courtyard.

00:39:56We'll talk about a Jesus kind of love.

00:40:01Take over, John.

00:40:04You know, if they had a Jesus kind of love,

00:40:08you'd be unemployed.

00:40:26Come on, Billy.

00:40:28That's your name, isn't it, Billy?

00:40:35All right, let's move on back to the truck.

00:40:38This ain't no Sunday picnic.

00:40:48Try to forget what she looks like

00:40:57Try to forget her name

00:41:05Try to forget that you loved her

00:41:13Cause to her it was all a game

00:41:21Try to forget your sorrow

00:41:30Try to forget the pain

00:41:38And look for a baby...

00:41:41That boy sure can sing.

00:41:44Hate to see him go.

00:41:48I remember down in Nashville about three...

00:41:53Four years ago, me and Minnie was visiting some folks.

00:41:58Went to the old Opry one Saturday night.

00:42:01Spent my last eight dollars to see him.

00:42:06Yes, sir.

00:42:08I was better than giving her a new fur coat.

00:42:12And walk down the road of your future

00:42:21It's right around the bend

00:42:29Try to forget your sorrow

00:42:37Try to forget the pain

00:42:45And look for a better tomorrow

00:42:53Cause the sun always follows the rain

00:43:07Play, Billy, play! Louder!

00:43:15Yeah, I gotta make my rounds before I turn in.

00:43:18I'll see you in the morning.

00:43:36Play, Billy, play! Louder!

00:43:39Play, Billy, play! Louder!

00:44:04My passport, blue boy.

00:44:06Don't be a fool, Weeks.

00:44:08They're bound to get you.

00:44:10Yeah, maybe.

00:44:11But I got the itch, man.

00:44:13You know what I mean.

00:44:18Thanks for the song.

00:44:22Keep playing. Keep playing.

00:44:27Maybe I'll run into you sometime, huh?

00:44:32Hey.

00:44:34Goodbye, buddy.

00:44:36And good luck.

00:44:53All right, blue. Knock it off.

00:44:57Yes, sir, boss.

00:45:03Good night.

00:45:33Good night.

00:46:03Good night.

00:46:33Good night.

00:46:34Good night.

00:47:03Hey, boy! Hold on there! Hold!

00:48:04And as it is appointed unto men once to die,

00:48:09but after this the judgment,

00:48:12so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many,

00:48:16and unto them that look for him shall he appear

00:48:20the second time without sin,

00:48:22unto salvation.

00:48:25Amen.

00:48:27Amen.

00:48:33Amen.

00:49:19Billy.

00:49:21I'd like to thank you.

00:49:23Perfection is so I can be out here today.

00:49:25I'm glad I could help, Billy.

00:49:27How do you feel?

00:49:30It's such a waste.

00:49:33Why?

00:49:38I wish I could have spent more time with him.

00:49:44What could you have done for him?

00:49:48Maybe nothing, but

00:49:50once you leave this earth, Billy, it's too late.

00:49:53I can't do anything for Judson anymore.

00:49:57Maybe you and I can talk.

00:49:59Maybe I can offer some thoughts that might help.

00:50:04Thoughts?

00:50:05Thoughts ain't gonna bring back anybody or Justin either.

00:50:10No, but

00:50:11thoughts lead to prayer,

00:50:14and prayer leads to understanding,

00:50:17and then we'll know the whys.

00:50:21Sounds confusing to me.

00:50:24Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, Billy?

00:50:29Yeah.

00:50:32Okay.

00:50:33Do you believe that Jesus Christ suffered and died

00:50:38and was buried, and the third day he rose again from the dead

00:50:42and ascended into heaven?

00:50:44Do you believe all that, Billy?

00:50:46Yeah.

00:50:47All right, I don't want to put you down, but

00:50:50even the devil believes that much.

00:50:54The difference is, Billy,

00:50:56he doesn't think it matters.

00:50:59So the question now is,

00:51:01did Jesus Christ die for Billy Blue?

00:51:04Do you believe that?

00:51:07I ain't prayed since I was a little kid.

00:51:11What do you got to lose?

00:51:16I don't know.

00:51:21What do you do? Just talk?

00:51:23Yeah, like, like he was right here in front of us.

00:51:27Just talk to him.

00:51:30You want me to say some words and then you say them after me?

00:51:35Yes.

00:51:36Let's sit down.

00:51:43Lord Jesus, I need you.

00:51:46Lord Jesus, I need you.

00:51:49I open my heart.

00:51:51I open my heart.

00:51:52And receive you as my Savior and Lord.

00:51:55And receive you as my Savior and Lord.

00:51:58Thank you for forgiving my sins.

00:52:01Thank you for forgiving my sins.

00:52:04Take control of my life.

00:52:07Take control of my life.

00:52:09And make me the kind of person you want me to be.

00:52:13And make me the kind of person you want me to be.

00:52:16Amen.

00:52:18Amen.

00:52:19We got together in a meeting and came to this conclusion.

00:52:22And so the guys agreed to form a group with me as the manager.

00:52:26Our first gig was a blast.

00:52:29You know, I think we got them booked through the summer already.

00:52:32That's great, huh?

00:52:33What did you call the group anyway?

00:52:34The Bluegrass Boys.

00:52:36They ain't that cute?

00:52:40Yeah.

00:52:42It's better than a coon hauler backwash.

00:52:45Yeah?

00:52:46Hey, come on, man.

00:52:47I'm really happy for you.

00:52:49Hey, maybe Reba can help you on the recording companies and the club owners.

00:52:53Hey, yeah.

00:53:03Hi, Billy.

00:53:04Al.

00:53:06Harvey.

00:53:07Long time.

00:53:08Yeah.

00:53:16What are you doing?

00:53:19Snooping or socializing?

00:53:21Come on, Al.

00:53:23What can we do for you, Harvey?

00:53:25A few bars, a few chains?

00:53:27Thanks, but no thanks.

00:53:29Just thought I'd stop by to see how you're doing.

00:53:32Heard you're getting out soon.

00:53:34Oh, yeah.

00:53:35He's a big-time reporter now.

00:53:37Newspaper.

00:53:38Louisville Times.

00:53:39He might even want to put your picture in the paper.

00:53:42What happened to the magazine?

00:53:43I kissed a goodbye.

00:53:45Oliver wanted some follow-ups on you.

00:53:48Well, we all have to graduate.

00:53:52I'd like to help you if I can.

00:53:54You're a little late, aren't you?

00:53:55I mean, you had your chance a long time ago.

00:53:57Knock it off, Al.

00:53:59That's okay, Billy.

00:54:01I guess I deserve that.

00:54:03But let's forget the past.

00:54:07I want to write your story.

00:54:10I want people to know your point of view.

00:54:12The truth about you.

00:54:13How you feel.

00:54:16I appreciate that, Harvey.

00:54:20But who cares?

00:54:21Billy, don't you realize there are a million people

00:54:24waiting to hear about you, good or bad?

00:54:28How do you think a rag like Scandal magazine

00:54:31gets such a high circulation?

00:54:34People like bad news.

00:54:36And you are bad news.

00:54:39I could write those articles in such a way

00:54:41that they'd end up cheering.

00:54:44After all, I'd just tell them the truth.

00:54:49No.

00:54:50Thank you, but no.

00:54:51I just don't want to dig up any old graves.

00:54:55I know what you're saying.

00:54:57And you can slug me if you want to.

00:55:00But if you're talking about me, you're crazy.

00:55:02After what she did to you...

00:55:04I know, Harvey.

00:55:08Look, let's just forget it, okay?

00:55:13Well, I tried.

00:55:18If you're in Louisville, come on by.

00:55:22We'll split a bottle.

00:55:24After all, I feel I owe you a couple.

00:55:33Billy, there's one thing I'd like to say.

00:55:37I can't forget the smut and smear articles

00:55:40I wrote about people.

00:55:42But now, I've got a chance to be on the other side.

00:55:47Good luck, Billy.

00:55:49So long, Harvey.

00:55:51So long.

00:55:58Well, what do you know?

00:56:00The leopard has changed his spots.

00:56:02Yeah.

00:56:06I guess if a guy wanted to find somebody,

00:56:08he'd be a good man to look up.

00:56:12Yeah, okay.

00:56:36Man, where have you been?

00:56:51I've been waiting here for almost an hour.

00:56:53Man, I tried in every way I could,

00:56:55but the whole family wanted to come.

00:56:57Finally convinced your mom and dad that they couldn't go.

00:57:00Then, Reva took the keys,

00:57:02said she wouldn't give them back unless she could go.

00:57:05I convinced her that somebody had to stay with Kathy.

00:57:08Kathy doesn't know you were coming here.

00:57:10No, she just wanted a ride.

00:57:12So do I. Get this crate moving.

00:57:14I've had enough of this place.

00:57:15Yes, sir, boss.

00:57:16Yes, sir, boss.

00:57:18Whoo-hoo!

00:57:48Hey, Mr. Stackett?

00:57:50Hello, Stackett.

00:58:01Does Kathy know that I've been in prison?

00:58:03Yes.

00:58:04Oh, Reva's had you on a singing tour.

00:58:07You had a fantastic trip.

00:58:10Yes, she would.

00:58:12From now on, I'm telling her the truth.

00:58:14No more lies.

00:58:17Heard anything about me?

00:58:19Oh, Billy!

00:58:20I mean, has she tried to see Kathy?

00:58:22Nope. Not even a phone call.

00:58:28Look, Billy, you just spent a long time in that prison back there

00:58:31because you had a hook in your belly for that broad.

00:58:35You got a lot of fine people waiting for you back at home.

00:58:39What do you want to go looking for trouble for?

00:58:43I love you like a brother, Al.

00:58:46But I didn't ask for your advice.

00:58:48Just where is May?

00:58:51Okay, brother.

00:58:53I'll tell you what I know, but it ain't pretty.

00:58:59Harvey Chipp ran into her a couple of weeks ago in Louisville.

00:59:03She's blowing all the money she's taken from you.

00:59:06She's busted, man.

00:59:08Well, how do you know?

00:59:10Because he saw her hustling at the Molino Rojo.

00:59:19Molino Rojo.

00:59:41Reba, Grandma, Grandpa, here they come!

00:59:50Daddy didn't miss you so much!

00:59:52I missed you too, son of Bob.

00:59:56Welcome home, Billy.

00:59:58Hi, Reba. It's good to be home.

01:00:02You look wonderful, son.

01:00:04Thank you, Mom.

01:00:06It's good to be home, boy.

01:00:09You're really looking good, Bob.

01:00:11Thank you, son.

01:00:13Come on inside, son.

01:00:15I've got your whole room all ready.

01:00:39The women in my life have been forgotten

01:01:01And there's been a beauty queen or two

01:01:09But when you gave your raincoat to the blind man on the street

01:01:17A Jesus kind of love I found in you

01:01:29I've been a lady's man most all of my life

01:01:36So you might wonder why I ever took a wife

01:01:44Because I've known a lady's charms that felt good in my arms

01:01:52And I've been around with wealth a time or two

01:02:00But something always seems to be a-missin'

01:02:07Yeah, the kind of love begins and ends with kissin'

01:02:15Now, that ain't bad, it's true

01:02:19But there's more to love with you

01:02:23Because your love starts where the kissin' ends

01:02:31Now, the accident that left me blind is forgotten

01:02:39And my bitterness for life is over, too

01:02:47Because when you said you'd be my eyes to guide me through this life

01:02:55A Jesus kind of love I found in you

01:03:02A Jesus kind of love I found in you

01:03:15You're singing better, Billy.

01:03:22I'm growin' up a little.

01:03:31It's a beautiful evening.

01:03:35You wanna take a walk by the creek?

01:03:39Yeah.

01:03:52I don't know how to tell you this, except to just try and tell you.

01:04:22But you're something very, very special to me.

01:04:28You've always been around, too careful, Kathy and me.

01:04:36I just think you're, you're wonderful.

01:04:42You're my life, Billy.

01:04:48And you always were, right from the first.

01:04:55I love you, and I wanna be a part of you.

01:05:06And I think you love me, too.

01:05:13I know you do.

01:05:28We haven't treated you very nice, have we?

01:05:31Don't say that.

01:05:33I mean, you've had some pretty hard times.

01:05:40Baby, I wish I could look at you and tell you things are gonna be better.

01:05:48Hey, you know Al and I are getting the boys together.

01:05:54And we're gonna try again.

01:05:56Yeah, I know you are.

01:05:58And I know you can do it, too.

01:06:05We can do it together, Billy.

01:06:11There's something I've got to straighten out first.

01:06:15You mean me?

01:06:17Yeah.

01:06:20Reba, I've got to try and help you.

01:06:23I know you do.

01:06:35I know you do.

01:07:01Thanks, Mark, for the help.

01:07:03Frankly, it's against my better judgment, but I won't argue with you.

01:07:08I will.

01:07:10Look, Billy, get smart.

01:07:12That sleeping dog's lying.

01:07:14You don't need her.

01:07:16He's right, you know.

01:07:19It might get you in a lot of trouble.

01:07:23For everybody's sake, why don't you forget it?

01:07:25Man, she's in there because she wants to be.

01:07:28Nobody forced her.

01:07:30I can't buy that, Al.

01:07:32If I could, I've got to try and help her.

01:07:35Are you coming?

01:07:37I'll wait outside.

01:07:40Hi, Ellie.

01:07:41Would you tell Miss Blue we're here?

01:07:46Would you come with me?

01:07:51Would you wait here, please?

01:07:55What'll it be, pal?

01:07:57Nothing, thanks.

01:08:00Who are you here to see?

01:08:05Me.

01:08:06Who?

01:08:08Me, Blue.

01:08:10You wanted me?

01:08:12Me, Blue.

01:08:15Who?

01:08:17Me, Blue.

01:08:18You wanted me?

01:08:25Hello, me.

01:08:30I couldn't stop him, me.

01:08:32What do you want, Billy?

01:08:36I'd like to talk to you, me.

01:08:38I'm busy.

01:08:39Besides, my time costs money.

01:08:42Come on, me.

01:08:43I said money.

01:08:44You know what that is, Blue boy.

01:08:46Money.

01:08:47Cash money.

01:08:48Now, if you ain't got any, get out.

01:08:54All right.

01:08:55How much?

01:08:57Julie.

01:09:00That'll be 20 bucks, Bob.

01:09:28Look, me.

01:09:30We've had a bad time of it.

01:09:32Both of us.

01:09:34But things can be better.

01:09:37I mean, me and Al, we're getting the boys back together again, and we're gonna try.

01:09:41It's gonna take some time, but I know I can make it again.

01:09:55Don't you ever think about God, me.

01:10:00What I'm trying to say is, me, you need somebody.

01:10:06Maybe I can help you.

01:10:14Boy.

01:10:16Oh, boy.

01:10:19For the biggest square in the whole world, you sure take the cake.

01:10:27Can't you get it through your head, Blue boy?

01:10:29I don't want you.

01:10:31I never have wanted you, and I don't need anybody.

01:10:35Why don't you shut your mouth and think of the baby?

01:10:41Now, I'm sure we can work something out.

01:10:43I don't want to work anything out.

01:10:45Well, then let me try and help you.

01:10:46You helped me one time by keeping me out of jail.

01:10:50There's only one way you can help me now.

01:10:53One more favor.

01:10:56Get out of my life.

01:10:58Look, May.

01:10:59Can't you see you married old...

01:11:01Shut up.

01:11:02Just shut your ugly mouth and think of the baby.

01:11:06You think of her.

01:11:07You're a fool, Billy.

01:11:09You're a fool.

01:11:11Don't you see the best thing I can do is stay out of your life?

01:11:14Can't you see I'm no good?

01:11:16Do you hear me?

01:11:18No good.

01:11:19No, damn you!

01:11:20Damn you!

01:11:22Get out!

01:11:23Get out!

01:11:24Get out!

01:11:25I hate you!

01:11:27Get out!

01:11:28Get out!

01:11:29Get out!

01:11:30Get out!

01:11:31Get out!

01:11:32Get out!

01:11:33Get out!

01:11:34Get out!

01:11:35Get out!

01:11:36Get out!

01:11:38Beat it!

01:11:39Go...

01:11:44I'll call you when I have to come.

01:12:12I think we better go home.

01:12:31I...

01:12:34I think...

01:12:38I'd like to spend some time alone.

01:12:51Go with him.

01:12:54Go ahead.

01:13:03Rain, rain.

01:13:08Ah, rain.

01:13:12If rain will give you pain to me.

01:13:22Rain woke me up this morning.

01:13:31Rain started me on my way.

01:13:40Rain will make you love all your enemies.

01:13:48Above all that, it'll brighten up your day.

01:13:58Rain, rain.

01:14:03Ah, rain.

01:14:07If rain is sufficient for me.

01:14:17Rain, rain.

01:14:21Ah, rain.

01:14:26If rain will give you victory.

01:14:38Ah, rain.

01:14:46Ah, rain.
