0:01:46 > 0:01:48The following photoplay is timeless.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50The story is a true story.
0:01:50 > 0:01:56It is also a very old story that is first told in the Bible.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58It is timeless and topical.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01It is still being played in many parts of the world.
0:02:01 > 0:02:06This picture was made in our neighbouring republic of Mexico
0:02:06 > 0:02:09at the kind invitation of the Mexican government
0:02:09 > 0:02:14and motion picture industry. But the locale is not Mexico,
0:02:14 > 0:02:17nor is it supposed to be confused with Mexico.
0:02:17 > 0:02:23It is merely a small state, a thousand miles north or south of the Panama Canal

0:05:07 > 0:05:09Who are you?
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Why are you here?
0:05:15 > 0:05:18I belong here.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22No.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27No.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32I know all the men in this village.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Are you from the...police?
0:05:40 > 0:05:42I'm hiding from the police.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Oh...
0:05:46 > 0:05:48You're a criminal.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Did you steal?
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Or did you kill somebody?
0:05:53 > 0:05:55No.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01I'm a priest.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03This was my church.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Please.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18What's your name?
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Maria Dolores.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24And your baby's name?
0:06:24 > 0:06:26My name. Maria Dolores.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28And your husband?
0:06:31 > 0:06:33I have no husband, Father.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39This one has not been baptised.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Could you give her a name, Father?
0:06:43 > 0:06:47So when she grows up to be married in a church
0:06:47 > 0:06:50she can be called by name.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Will there be churches again, Father?
0:06:55 > 0:06:57We must hope so.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00In the village they have no hope.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04They say the priests have all left us,
0:07:04 > 0:07:07that the Church is dead.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11In the village are many babies that have not been baptised.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15Is that why you have been sent here, Father?
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Perhaps.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24But you are not afraid.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Yes. I am afraid.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52Go and summon the others. Tell them to bring their babies.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56They would not come for me, Father.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58The men, yes.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01The women, no.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Perhaps they will come for me.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18CHEERING
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Thank you for doing my work.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32Somebody's got to carry on. Well, where were you?
0:18:32 > 0:18:34With the governor.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36He's in splendid health.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39You don't look very happy.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43The governor and I are friends. We understand each other.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45He asked a few questions about you.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47About me? What about me?
0:18:47 > 0:18:51Well, he had a copy of your report on his desk.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54You know how he feels about the clergy.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58I feel the same way. We shot the last priest six months ago.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02- The governor doesn't think so. - Well, he's wrong!
0:19:02 > 0:19:05The last priest was shot six months ago.
0:19:05 > 0:19:09Do you wish to argue with the governor? That's stupid.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13He gets information we don't get. There's no doubt about it.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17What's the name of this priest?
0:19:17 > 0:19:21What's his village? What's his parish? Where was he born?
0:19:21 > 0:19:26That's the trouble. Nobody knows anything when it comes to these traitors.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30Nobody talks. No-one knows their name.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33They go from village to village. People hide them.
0:19:33 > 0:19:38Superstitious fools. They'd do anything to hide a priest.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41How can we find a man without a photograph?
0:19:41 > 0:19:43The governor says we have got one.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55You can tell he's a priest by the collar, that's all.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57The picture's the best we have.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00They look alike. I've shot him a dozen times.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20We must have him before the rains come.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23I know how to get this man before the rains come.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Do you know what I'll do? Take hostages.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Take a hostage from every village.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31And if the people don't report him,
0:20:31 > 0:20:34if they don't turn him in, shoot the hostages.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37Then take more. It'll cost lives, yes,
0:20:37 > 0:20:40but we've got to drive these people out of the country.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39I meant to come back.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42I had work to do.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36BABY CRIES
0:27:54 > 0:27:57I've got them all corralled in the plaza.
0:28:22 > 0:28:25Are you the head man of the village?
0:28:25 > 0:28:29- Si, senor.- You know what we're here for, don't you?
0:28:29 > 0:28:31We're looking for the priest.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33Do you know what a priest is?
0:28:33 > 0:28:36A traitor to the state.
0:28:36 > 0:28:40Anyone who hides him is a traitor, too.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43I know he's here. This was his village.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46Up there was his church.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48This is a very rich village.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50It has lots of wax candles.
0:28:50 > 0:28:54They were burned last night. There was water in the font.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59Where's the priest? Point him out.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02You superstitious fools.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05Do you still believe what the priests told you?
0:29:05 > 0:29:09All they wanted was money. What did they give you?
0:29:09 > 0:29:13Anything to eat? Did they feed your children? No!
0:29:13 > 0:29:15They filled you full of lies.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19They talked about heaven, and said to be meek and humble.
0:29:19 > 0:29:22Everything would be fine when you die.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24They want you to die, not live.
0:29:24 > 0:29:29They preach against the revolution because we want you to live, not die.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32Where's the priest? Point him out.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37There's a reward of £1,000 pesos. Point him out!
0:29:39 > 0:29:41Why don't you trust me?
0:29:41 > 0:29:45I'll find this priest. Do you know why?
0:29:45 > 0:29:50We're taking hostages. Give up the priest, or we'll shoot them.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Can't you see I'm one of you?
0:29:52 > 0:29:55I'm doing this for your own good.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57This priest is a coward.
0:29:57 > 0:30:01If he was half the man you think, he'd give himself up to save you.
0:30:01 > 0:30:04Is it worth hiding a man like this?
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Why don't you trust me? Give him up.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09I don't want to see any of you die.
0:30:09 > 0:30:14You're my own people. Can't you understand I want to give you everything?
0:30:18 > 0:30:20All right.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22I'll take you.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25No! No!
0:30:25 > 0:30:27No.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29No.
0:30:29 > 0:30:33Your excellency, take me.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35Why should I take you?
0:30:37 > 0:30:41He has a family. They need him. I'm no good. Take me.
0:30:41 > 0:30:45If you're no good as a man, you're no good as a hostage.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32What will you do now, Father?
0:31:33 > 0:31:36I'll go to Puerto Grande.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Sell the mule.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42Take a boat. Get out of the country.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50It's better that I go, Maria Dolores.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55I haven't been a good priest.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00I don't understand, Father.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04I'm afraid I don't understand myself.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13Be careful of the police, Father.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27Oh, what a fine mule.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30A beautiful mule.
0:34:30 > 0:34:32You must be rich.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35Have you come a long way?
0:34:35 > 0:34:39- How far is it to Puerto Grande? - Two or three days.
0:34:39 > 0:34:43With a mule like that, maybe one day.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Why do you want to go to Puerto Grande?
0:34:45 > 0:34:47I have business there.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54What a beautiful bag.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58What do you have in the bag?
0:34:58 > 0:35:00Jewels? Money?
0:35:04 > 0:35:06A pistol, maybe.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09Who is that man?
0:35:09 > 0:35:11El Gringo. A very brave man.
0:35:11 > 0:35:15He held up a gringo bank - stole 100, killed two or three people.
0:35:15 > 0:35:19- Very brave.- Who put that up there?
0:35:19 > 0:35:21Why, the police. That's their business.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24How long ago were they here?
0:35:24 > 0:35:28Oh, two or three days. Don't worry. They won't come back.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30Do you think I'm worried?
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Why do you ask about the police?
0:35:39 > 0:35:42I'm sorry if I offended you about the police.
0:35:42 > 0:35:46Don't go. Stay. It's better. The river - it's nice.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48It's too hot to travel!
0:36:34 > 0:36:37Ah, you went so fast, you almost lost me.
0:36:37 > 0:36:41- What do you want?- I'm going to Puerto Grande on business.
0:36:41 > 0:36:45It's more safe to travel together. Me, I can protect you.
0:36:45 > 0:36:48You wouldn't refuse me, would you, sir?
0:36:48 > 0:36:52- Why did you call me sir? - I can see you are an educated man.
0:36:52 > 0:36:57But you're tired. There's a place we can stop and you can sleep.
0:36:57 > 0:37:01- I'm in a hurry.- Why? It's not good. It's dangerous to travel at night.
0:37:01 > 0:37:05Gringos, wild animals, snakes - they eat you up.
0:37:05 > 0:37:09- They never touch me because I am a poor man.- I am a poor man.
0:37:09 > 0:37:14Oh, no, you have a mule, costly clothes, a rich bag full of money.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16But you have no gun to protect you.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Oh, you have a light.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31Isn't it beautiful?
0:37:33 > 0:37:35A wax candle.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37They cost a lot... real wax.
0:37:37 > 0:37:41It's the kind they used to have in the churches.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43I haven't seen one since the old days.
0:37:51 > 0:37:54That makes everything fine.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01It's nice to be comfortable.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03It must be wonderful to be rich.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08Go ahead, sleep. You're tired.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10I will watch.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12I'm never tired.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16Why are you going to the city?
0:38:16 > 0:38:20I'm keeping you company. I'm protecting you.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23I'm your guide.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26You said you had business there.
0:38:26 > 0:38:30Me?! When did I say that? Why should I tell you lies?
0:38:32 > 0:38:36I'm giving up my time to help you, to guide you.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38You would get lost.
0:38:38 > 0:38:42You don't trust me, just because I'm trying to do you a good turn!
0:38:46 > 0:38:50Because I'm trying to be a good Christian you don't trust me.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56You don't trust me.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42Ah, good wine. I never had wine like that before.

1:14:48 > 1:14:51GUNSHOTS
1:14:52 > 1:14:55They've found the priest. Let's go.
1:14:55 > 1:14:57HE BLOWS WHISTLE
1:15:04 > 1:15:06BABY CRIES
1:15:06 > 1:15:08Maria, quiet!
1:15:18 > 1:15:20Go on, Father. Beat it.
1:15:21 > 1:15:23POLICE WHISTLE
1:15:27 > 1:15:29GUNSHOTS
1:16:03 > 1:16:05BABY CRIES
1:16:09 > 1:16:12WHOOPING
1:16:18 > 1:16:20Get on the other side of that road.
1:16:20 > 1:16:22Get the priest!
1:17:03 > 1:17:05See anything?
1:17:49 > 1:17:51WHOOPING
1:19:42 > 1:19:44Five years.
1:19:44 > 1:19:46It's a long time.
1:19:46 > 1:19:48I know from experience.
1:19:48 > 1:19:50You've shown great courage, Father.
1:19:50 > 1:19:52Oh, no.
1:19:52 > 1:19:55No, it wasn't courage, Doctor.
1:19:55 > 1:19:57It was only pride.
1:19:57 > 1:19:59Yes, I see it now.
1:19:59 > 1:20:01It was pride.
1:20:02 > 1:20:07The first year, well, the whole thing seemed fantastic.
1:20:07 > 1:20:12I couldn't believe there was any real reason to leave the country.
1:20:12 > 1:20:15Things like that have happened before.
1:20:15 > 1:20:19I thought I'd stay a month and see if things got better.
1:20:19 > 1:20:22And another month. And another month.
1:20:22 > 1:20:24- You know how time goes by.- Yes.
1:20:26 > 1:20:28Then I began to lose grace.
1:20:29 > 1:20:31I began to have pride.
1:20:33 > 1:20:35I began to think I was a brave man.
1:20:36 > 1:20:39Who knows? A martyr.
1:20:40 > 1:20:44I suddenly realised I was the only priest left in the country.
1:20:44 > 1:20:47Those who weren't shot had left.
1:20:47 > 1:20:50I can't blame them. They were quite right to go.
1:20:50 > 1:20:56But in my growing pride, I couldn't understand that.
1:20:56 > 1:21:00- Dangerous.- Don't be so hard on yourself, Father.
1:21:00 > 1:21:02A man is entitled to a little pride.
1:21:04 > 1:21:06Not in my profession.
1:21:06 > 1:21:10I was building a fine lie and wearing it like a proud cloak.
1:21:13 > 1:21:15The strange thing is that,
1:21:15 > 1:21:18all the time,
1:21:18 > 1:21:21I knew in here I wasn't cut out to be a martyr.
1:21:21 > 1:21:23When the real test came,
1:21:23 > 1:21:25I couldn't measure up.
1:21:25 > 1:21:27I didn't have the courage.
1:21:27 > 1:21:29I was afraid to give myself up.
1:21:33 > 1:21:35I let men die for me.
1:21:35 > 1:21:37Innocent people.
1:21:37 > 1:21:40Doctor, it's time for Father's nap.
1:21:40 > 1:21:42Thank you.
1:21:49 > 1:21:51Thank you, Doctor.
1:22:13 > 1:22:15WINDOW OPENS
1:22:23 > 1:22:27Father, don't be frightened, Father. I'm your friend.
1:22:27 > 1:22:29I'm here on an errand of mercy.
1:22:29 > 1:22:33- Have you brought the police with you?- The police?
1:22:33 > 1:22:36No, I'm here to do good. Believe me, Father.
1:22:36 > 1:22:38I want to make up for my sins.
1:22:38 > 1:22:40I have two mules outside.
1:22:40 > 1:22:44Hurry, Father. The man is dying.
1:22:44 > 1:22:46What man?
1:22:46 > 1:22:50The gringo. The Americano. The man the police want.
1:22:50 > 1:22:52He robbed a bank.
1:22:52 > 1:22:54You know the man I mean.
1:22:54 > 1:22:58He's dying, Father. He wants you to come.
1:22:58 > 1:23:01You cannot refuse a man who is dying, Father.
1:23:01 > 1:23:04He has so much to confess.
1:23:04 > 1:23:06He's never betrayed his friends.
1:23:06 > 1:23:09Neither have I.
1:23:09 > 1:23:11Neither have I!
1:23:11 > 1:23:13You don't trust me.
1:23:13 > 1:23:15Go away. Do you think I'm a fool?
1:23:15 > 1:23:18The man is dying. He wants a priest.
1:23:18 > 1:23:20You're lying.
1:23:20 > 1:23:23No. No.
1:23:23 > 1:23:25I'll prove it.
1:23:39 > 1:23:41No, the other side.
1:23:52 > 1:23:55- Will he still be alive? - Yes! Yes, yes, Father.
1:24:00 > 1:24:03Father, did you call?
1:24:07 > 1:24:09Father?
1:24:42 > 1:24:44Beat it, Father.
1:24:44 > 1:24:48When did you last receive the sacraments?
1:24:48 > 1:24:50Ten...
1:24:50 > 1:24:5215 years, I guess.
1:24:53 > 1:24:56Beat it, Father.
1:24:56 > 1:24:58Don't you want to confess?
1:25:01 > 1:25:03No.
1:25:03 > 1:25:05No.
1:25:05 > 1:25:07You did when you wrote this.
1:25:09 > 1:25:12I...I didn't write that, Father.
1:25:13 > 1:25:15Beat it.
1:25:15 > 1:25:18Get out of here. Don't be a sap.
1:25:19 > 1:25:21- Remember...- Get away.
1:25:21 > 1:25:23You're dying.
1:25:23 > 1:25:28You're given this chance to confess. You won't have another.
1:25:33 > 1:25:35- Father...- Yes?
1:25:35 > 1:25:37Father,
1:25:37 > 1:25:41I can't get...get my gun
1:25:41 > 1:25:43under my shoulder.
1:25:44 > 1:25:47Get my gun, Father, you're going to need it.
1:25:49 > 1:25:51You have no gun.
1:25:52 > 1:25:54Lie still, it's not there.
1:25:54 > 1:25:56Listen to me.
1:25:56 > 1:25:58You believed once.
1:25:58 > 1:26:00Try and understand.
1:26:00 > 1:26:05This is your chance. Like the last moment. Like the thief on the cross.
1:26:05 > 1:26:09You've sinned but that only belongs to this life.
1:26:09 > 1:26:11Forget about me, Father.
1:26:11 > 1:26:13Skip it. Skip it! Take care...
1:26:22 > 1:26:24Uggh!
1:26:28 > 1:26:30Oh, merciful father,
1:26:30 > 1:26:33the souls of the departed
1:26:33 > 1:26:37through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
1:26:37 > 1:26:39Amen.

1:27:27 > 1:27:29Have you finished?
1:27:29 > 1:27:31Yes, I've finished.
1:27:52 > 1:27:55You've been tried and found guilty.
1:27:55 > 1:28:00- Couldn't I have been present at my own trial? - It wouldn't have mattered.
1:28:00 > 1:28:02- I...- In the morning.
1:28:02 > 1:28:04I brought you a lamp.
1:28:09 > 1:28:12It's hard to be alone on a night like this.
1:28:12 > 1:28:14I'd rather be alone.
1:28:14 > 1:28:17I have so much to think about.
1:28:20 > 1:28:23May I ask you a question, Lieutenant?
1:28:23 > 1:28:25When did you lose your faith?
1:28:25 > 1:28:27When I found a better one.
1:28:27 > 1:28:29Look, Priest,
1:28:29 > 1:28:32I have nothing against you as a man.
1:28:32 > 1:28:34Oh, I know that.
1:28:34 > 1:28:36I'm the sort of man you lock up every day
1:28:36 > 1:28:39and give money to.
1:28:39 > 1:28:41I hate your arguments.
1:28:41 > 1:28:43If you see somebody in pain,
1:28:43 > 1:28:46you say, "Perhaps pain is a good thing."
1:28:46 > 1:28:50Now you're shivering in your boots because you're afraid of pain.
1:28:50 > 1:28:53But I'm not a saint.
1:28:53 > 1:28:55I'm not even a brave man.
1:28:56 > 1:28:58I'm a coward.
1:28:59 > 1:29:03The priesthood is large. It's tremendous.
1:29:03 > 1:29:05I was always too small for it.
1:29:05 > 1:29:07THUNDER CLAPS
1:29:16 > 1:29:18Do you know what's very strange?
1:29:19 > 1:29:22I'm beginning not to be afraid.
1:29:24 > 1:29:26Even you believe in God.
1:29:26 > 1:29:30- That's not true.- Of course you believe. That's why you're afraid.
1:29:30 > 1:29:35- You want to kill God but you can't do it.- That's a lot of nonsense.
1:29:35 > 1:29:37Don't tell me you're not afraid.
1:29:37 > 1:29:40- Listen, do you want to die?- No.
1:29:40 > 1:29:42I can help. I'll go to the governor.
1:29:42 > 1:29:47Renounce your faith. Tell the people you've been telling them lies.
1:29:47 > 1:29:49I'm sorry, Lieutenant.
1:30:01 > 1:30:04In the village
1:30:04 > 1:30:06there's an Indian woman,
1:30:07 > 1:30:09Maria Dolores.
1:30:09 > 1:30:11Yes, a good woman.
1:30:12 > 1:30:15You baptised her child, didn't you?
1:30:15 > 1:30:17Yes.
1:30:20 > 1:30:22Can I get you some brandy?
1:30:22 > 1:30:24It'll make it easier in the morning.
1:30:24 > 1:30:27That's very kind of you but no thanks.
1:30:27 > 1:30:29It'll make you forget.
1:30:29 > 1:30:31No.
1:30:31 > 1:30:33I want to live my death.

1:34:49 > 1:34:52- You can't sell a blessing. - Forward!
