I got tired of hearing him
talking about the piano.
174
00:13:12,541 --> 00:13:14,249
- [Doaker] Hm.
- [Boy Willie] Hey, Doaker.
175
00:13:14,250 --> 00:13:16,041
Sutter's brother selling the land.
176
00:13:16,916 --> 00:13:18,458
Say he wanna sell it to me.
177
00:13:19,208 --> 00:13:21,249
- Hmm.
- [Boy Willie] That's why I come up here.
178
00:13:21,250 --> 00:13:22,957
Now, I got one part.
179
00:13:22,958 --> 00:13:25,124
I sell them watermelons,
that get me another.
180
00:13:25,125 --> 00:13:28,499
Then I get Berniece to sell that piano,
and I'll have the third part.
181
00:13:28,500 --> 00:13:29,707
[chuckles]
182
00:13:29,708 --> 00:13:32,749
- Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
- [chuckles] I'm gonna talk to her.
183
00:13:32,750 --> 00:13:35,832
When she see I got a chance
to get Sutter's land, she'll come around.
184
00:13:35,833 --> 00:13:40,165
You can get that thought out your mind.
Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
185
00:13:40,166 --> 00:13:41,749
I'm gonna talk to her.
186
00:13:41,750 --> 00:13:42,791
[Doaker chuckles]
187
00:13:43,458 --> 00:13:45,291
How much land Sutter got left?
188
00:13:45,791 --> 00:13:47,916
[Boy Willie] Got a hundred acres.
Good land.
189
00:13:48,416 --> 00:13:52,082
He done sold it piece by piece.
Kept the good part for himself.
190
00:13:52,083 --> 00:13:53,874
Now he got to give that up.
191
00:13:53,875 --> 00:13:56,625
His brother come down from Chicago
for the funeral.
192
00:13:57,125 --> 00:14:00,333
He up in Chicago. Got some kinda business
with soda-fountain equipment.
193
00:14:00,875 --> 00:14:04,499
He anxious to sell the land, Doaker.
He don't wanna be bothered with it.
194
00:14:04,500 --> 00:14:05,957
He called me to him and said
195
00:14:05,958 --> 00:14:08,624
'cause of how long our families
done known each other
196
00:14:08,625 --> 00:14:10,957
and how we been good friends and all,
197
00:14:10,958 --> 00:14:13,040
say he wanna sell it to me.
198
00:14:13,041 --> 00:14:14,749
Told him to give me two weeks.
199
00:14:14,750 --> 00:14:17,499
He said he'd wait on me.
That's why I come up here.
200
00:14:17,500 --> 00:14:20,874
I sell them watermelons,
get Berniece to sell that piano,
201
00:14:20,875 --> 00:14:23,457
put them two parts together
with the part I done saved,
202
00:14:23,458 --> 00:14:26,375
then walk in there, tip my hat,
203
00:14:26,875 --> 00:14:29,625
lay my money down on the table,
204
00:14:30,916 --> 00:14:33,208
get my deed, and walk on out.
205
00:14:34,500 --> 00:14:36,624
This time, I get to keep all the cotton.
206
00:14:36,625 --> 00:14:39,375
Hire me some men to work it for me. Huh?
207
00:14:39,875 --> 00:14:43,582
Gin my cotton, get my seed,
and I'll see y'all again next year.
208
00:14:43,583 --> 00:14:46,290
Might even plant some tobacco.
Or some oats.
209
00:14:46,291 --> 00:14:47,416
[Doaker] Mm. Hmm.
210
00:14:48,458 --> 00:14:49,374
[Doaker sighs]
211
00:14:49,375 --> 00:14:52,791
You gonna have a hard time
convincing Berniece to sell that piano.
212
00:14:53,291 --> 00:14:55,332
Y'all remember Avery Brown
from down there?
213
00:14:55,333 --> 00:14:56,624
He up here now.
214
00:14:56,625 --> 00:14:59,749
Trying to get Berniece to marry him
after Crawley got killed.
215
00:14:59,750 --> 00:15:02,749
Been up here about two years.
Call himself a preacher now.
216
00:15:02,750 --> 00:15:04,207
[Boy Willie] I know Avery.
217
00:15:04,208 --> 00:15:07,249
I knew him when he used to work up
on the Willshaw place. Lymon knew him too.
218
00:15:07,250 --> 00:15:09,124
Yeah, he after Berniece to marry him.
219
00:15:09,125 --> 00:15:12,040
She keep telling him no,
but he won't give up.
220
00:15:12,041 --> 00:15:13,707
He keep pressing her on it. [laughs]
221
00:15:13,708 --> 00:15:16,125
Avery think all white men is big shots.
222
00:15:16,666 --> 00:15:18,957
He don't know there's white men
ain't got as much as he got.
223
00:15:18,958 --> 00:15:21,415
He supposed to come past here
this morning.
224
00:15:21,416 --> 00:15:23,082
Berniece going with him down to the bank.
225
00:15:23,083 --> 00:15:24,999
See if he can get a loan
to start his church.
226
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,915
See, that's why I know
Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
227
00:15:28,916 --> 00:15:31,832
He tried to get her to sell it
to help him start his church.
228
00:15:31,833 --> 00:15:33,625
Sent the man around and everything.
229
00:15:34,791 --> 00:15:35,790
[Boy Willie] What man?
230
00:15:35,791 --> 00:15:38,249
Some white fella who going around
to colored people's houses
231
00:15:38,250 --> 00:15:39,957
looking to buy musical instruments.
232
00:15:39,958 --> 00:15:41,457
He'd buy anything.
233
00:15:41,458 --> 00:15:45,249
Drums, guitars, harmonicas, pianos.
234
00:15:45,250 --> 00:15:49,165
Avery sent him past here.
He looked at that piano, got excited.
235
00:15:49,166 --> 00:15:51,290
Offered her a nice price.
236
00:15:51,291 --> 00:15:54,375
She turned him down,
got on Avery for sending him past.
237
00:15:54,875 --> 00:15:55,833
[Boy Willie] Hm.
238
00:15:56,583 --> 00:15:58,583
[wistful music playing]
239
00:16:09,250 --> 00:16:11,166
[Berniece] It's always something.
240
00:16:12,125 --> 00:16:13,291
Now, what the...
241
00:16:14,416 --> 00:16:15,666
[mutters]
242
00:16:18,375 --> 00:16:20,375
[wistful music continues]
243
00:16:22,208 --> 00:16:23,500
[snores]
244
00:16:30,291 --> 00:16:31,291
[Boy Willie moans]
245
00:16:43,791 --> 00:16:45,083
[music fades]
246
00:17:01,166 --> 00:17:02,375
[door opens]
247
00:17:03,375 --> 00:17:04,416
[door closes]
248
00:17:05,250 --> 00:17:06,749
[water dripping]
249
00:17:06,750 --> 00:17:08,833
[ominous music playing]
250
00:17:22,625 --> 00:17:23,708
[wind whistling]
251
00:17:26,625 --> 00:17:27,790
[light switch clicks]
252
00:17:27,791 --> 00:17:30,415
[screaming] Doaker! Doaker!
253
00:17:30,416 --> 00:17:32,040
[screaming continues]
254
00:17:32,041 --> 00:17:32,957
Doaker!
255
00:17:32,958 --> 00:17:35,207
- Doaker!
- Berniece? Berniece?
256
00:17:35,208 --> 00:17:36,707
[whimpering]
257
00:17:36,708 --> 00:17:37,707
[Doaker] Berniece?
258
00:17:37,708 --> 00:17:40,124
Lord, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
259
00:17:40,125 --> 00:17:43,582
- [Lymon] Hey, what's going on?
- [Doaker] It's all right. I got you.
260
00:17:43,583 --> 00:17:45,666
Come on. Come on. Sit down. Sit down.
261
00:17:46,166 --> 00:17:47,374
Come on. What is it?
262
00:17:47,375 --> 00:17:48,915
- Sutter--
- What's the matter?
263
00:17:48,916 --> 00:17:50,832
Sutter's standing up there in the hall.
264
00:17:50,833 --> 00:17:53,082
- [Doaker] Boy Willie?
- [Boy Willie] Ain't nobody up here.
265
00:17:53,083 --> 00:17:54,249
Boy Willie!
266
00:17:54,250 --> 00:17:56,374
[footsteps running down stairs]
267
00:17:56,375 --> 00:17:58,666
[Boy Willie] Hey, Doaker.
What's wrong with her?
268
00:17:59,750 --> 00:18:01,165
Hey, Berniece, what's wrong?
269
00:18:01,166 --> 00:18:03,749
She says she seen Sutter's ghost.
270
00:18:03,750 --> 00:18:05,749
[Boy Willie] Seen what?
She ain't seen no Sutter.
271
00:18:05,750 --> 00:18:07,165
Boy, he was standing right there.
272
00:18:07,166 --> 00:18:09,415
[Boy Willie] That's in Berniece's head.
Nobody up there.
273
00:18:09,416 --> 00:18:11,957
- Go on up there, Doaker.
- I take your word for it.
274
00:18:11,958 --> 00:18:16,082
Berniece talking about what she seen,
and she said Sutter's ghost in the hall.
275
00:18:16,083 --> 00:18:17,332
She ain't just made that up.
276
00:18:17,333 --> 00:18:19,290
She up there dreaming.
She ain't seen no ghost.
277
00:18:19,291 --> 00:18:22,124
[Lymon] You want a glass of water?
Get a glass of water, Boy Willie.
278
00:18:22,125 --> 00:18:24,207
She don't need water.
She ain't seen nothing.
279
00:18:24,208 --> 00:18:26,415
Go up there and look.
Ain't nobody up there but Maretha.
280
00:18:26,416 --> 00:18:28,582
- [Doaker] Let Berniece tell it.
- [Boy Willie] Ain't stopping her.
281
00:18:28,583 --> 00:18:30,082
- [Doaker] Go on.
- [Berniece] I just--
282
00:18:30,083 --> 00:18:32,624
I come out my room to come back down here,
283
00:18:32,625 --> 00:18:35,290
and... and Sutter
was standing there in the hall.
284
00:18:35,291 --> 00:18:36,374
[breathing shakily]
285
00:18:36,375 --> 00:18:37,665
[Boy Willie] What he look like?
286
00:18:37,666 --> 00:18:40,791
He look like Sutter.
Look like he always look.
287
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,957
Sutter couldn't find his way
from Big Sandy to Little Sandy.
288
00:18:44,958 --> 00:18:47,332
How he gonna find his way
all the way up here to Pittsburgh?
289
00:18:47,333 --> 00:18:48,957
Sutter ain't even heard of Pittsburgh.
290
00:18:48,958 --> 00:18:51,082
Let Berniece finish.
I wanna hear what she got to say.
291
00:18:51,083 --> 00:18:53,874
Just... just... just standing there
with a blue suit on.
292
00:18:53,875 --> 00:18:56,290
[Boy Willie] Man never left Marlin County
when he was living.
293
00:18:56,291 --> 00:18:59,249
He gonna come all the way up here
now that he's dead?
294
00:18:59,250 --> 00:19:00,374
Now, go on, Berniece.
295
00:19:00,375 --> 00:19:02,707
If Berniece seen him
like she think she seen him,
296
00:19:02,708 --> 00:19:03,957
she'd still be running.
297
00:19:03,958 --> 00:19:05,750
Go on. Don't pay Boy Willie no mind.
298
00:19:08,333 --> 00:19:09,666
Did he have on a hat?
299
00:19:10,166 --> 00:19:11,957
[Berniece] Just had on that blue suit.
300
00:19:11,958 --> 00:19:15,833
He just stood there looking at me,
calling Boy Willie's name.
301
00:19:17,083 --> 00:19:18,457
What he calling my name for?
302
00:19:18,458 --> 00:19:20,582
I believe you pushed him in the well.
303
00:19:20,583 --> 00:19:22,499
[Boy Willie] Now what kind of sense
that make?
304
00:19:22,500 --> 00:19:25,332
[laughs] You telling me I'mma go out
and hide in the weeds
305
00:19:25,333 --> 00:19:28,165
with... with all them dogs and things
he got around there?
306
00:19:28,166 --> 00:19:29,457
I'mma go out and hide
307
00:19:29,458 --> 00:19:33,707
and wait till I catch him looking down
his well just right,
308
00:19:33,708 --> 00:19:36,040
then I'mma run over and push him in?
309
00:19:36,041 --> 00:19:38,290
A great big old 340-pound man.
310
00:19:38,291 --> 00:19:39,707
Well, what he call your name for?
311
00:19:39,708 --> 00:19:41,874
He was bending over,
looking down his well, woman.
312
00:19:41,875 --> 00:19:44,874
How he know who pushed him?
Could have been anybody.
313
00:19:44,875 --> 00:19:47,165
Where was you
when Sutter fell down his well?
314
00:19:47,166 --> 00:19:48,333
Where was Doaker?
315
00:19:49,291 --> 00:19:51,290
Me and Lymon
was over in Stoner County. Tell her.
316
00:19:51,291 --> 00:19:54,165
The Ghosts of the Yellow Dog got Sutter.
That's what happened to him.
317
00:19:54,166 --> 00:19:56,624
[Berniece] You can talk all that Ghosts
of the Yellow Dog stuff if you want.
318
00:19:56,625 --> 00:19:57,874
I know better.
319
00:19:57,875 --> 00:20:02,165
Ghosts of the Yellow Dog pushed him.
That's what the people say.
320
00:20:02,166 --> 00:20:04,250
[unsettling music playing]
321
00:20:06,250 --> 00:20:08,207
- [man 1] That's him.
- [man 2] I see him.
322
00:20:08,208 --> 00:20:09,249
There.
323
00:20:09,250 --> 00:20:11,749
[Lymon] They found him in his well,
and all the people say
324
00:20:11,750 --> 00:20:14,916
it must be the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog,
just like all them other men.
325
00:20:16,291 --> 00:20:18,249
[Boy Willie] Come talking about
he looking for me.
326
00:20:18,250 --> 00:20:20,582
That ain't nothing but in Berniece's head.
327
00:20:20,583 --> 00:20:22,999
Ain't no telling what she's liable
to come up with next.
328
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,624
Boy Willie, I want you and Lymon
to go ahead and leave my house.
329
00:20:25,625 --> 00:20:27,040
Just go on somewhere.
330
00:20:27,041 --> 00:20:29,499
You bring trouble with you
everywhere you go.
331
00:20:29,500 --> 00:20:32,083
If it wasn't for you,
Crawley would still be alive.
332
00:20:36,416 --> 00:20:37,500
Crawley what?
333
00:20:39,541 --> 00:20:41,790
I had nothing to do
with Crawley getting killed.
334
00:20:41,791 --> 00:20:44,165
Crawley three time seven.
He had his own mind.
335
00:20:44,166 --> 00:20:47,332
Just go on and leave. Let Sutter
go somewhere else looking for you.
336
00:20:47,333 --> 00:20:48,415
[Boy Willie] I'm leaving!
337
00:20:48,416 --> 00:20:51,791
Soon as we sell them watermelons.
Other than that, I ain't going nowhere.
338
00:20:52,708 --> 00:20:54,624
- Hell.
- [Berniece groans]
339

Doaker say you sent
some white man past the house
510
00:29:31,916 --> 00:29:33,375
to take a look at that piano.
511
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,249
He going around colored people's houses
looking to buy musical instruments.
512
00:29:37,250 --> 00:29:40,165
[Avery] Yeah, but Berniece say
she ain't wanna sell that piano.
513
00:29:40,166 --> 00:29:43,374
After she told me about it,
I can see why she ain't wanna sell it.
514
00:29:43,375 --> 00:29:44,833
[Boy Willie] What's the man's name?
515
00:29:45,583 --> 00:29:48,415
I forgot the man's name.
It was a while back ago now.
516
00:29:48,416 --> 00:29:52,165
I believe he gave Berniece a card
with his name and telephone number on it,
517
00:29:52,166 --> 00:29:53,457
but she throwed it away.
518
00:29:53,458 --> 00:29:55,333
[footsteps coming down stairs]
519
00:29:55,833 --> 00:29:58,124
[Berniece] Maretha, run back upstairs
and get my pocketbook.
520
00:29:58,125 --> 00:30:01,208
And wipe the hair grease
off your forehead. Go ahead. Hurry up.
521
00:30:04,250 --> 00:30:05,500

524
00:30:12,416 --> 00:30:15,290
Oh! You can pick me up some ham hocks,

525
00:30:15,291 --> 00:30:18,708

526
00:30:19,500 --> 00:30:21,082
We gonna take the streetcar?
527

Don't you be showing them your color.
529
00:30:26,875 --> 00:30:28,540

530
00:30:28,541 --> 00:30:31,290
I expect you and Lyman to be out

531
00:30:31,291 --> 00:30:33,000
[Doaker moans happily]
532
00:30:33,666 --> 00:30:35,500
[Avery] I'll be seeing you again,
Boy Willie.
533
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:37,125
Hey, Berniece.
534
00:30:38,291 --> 00:30:40,708
What's the name of that man

535
00:30:41,250 --> 00:30:42,666

536
00:30:44,625 --> 00:30:45,749

537
00:30:45,750 --> 00:30:48,749
I knew it when I first seent you.

543
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,999
- We could sell that piano.
- I ain't selling that piano, Boy Willie.
544
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,125
And if that's why you come up here,
then you can forget about it.
545
00:31:08,625 --> 00:31:10,790
Doaker, I'll see you later.
546
00:31:10,791 --> 00:31:12,915
Boy Willie ain't nothing
but a whole lot of mouth.
547
00:31:12,916 --> 00:31:14,540
Don't pay him no mind.
548
00:31:14,541 --> 00:31:17,415
And if he come up here
thinking he gonna sell that piano,
549
00:31:17,416 --> 00:31:19,375
then he done come up here for nothing.
550

- Come here, brother.
- [both laughing]
572
00:32:49,750 --> 00:32:52,124
I'll tell you outright,
if I see Sutter's ghost,
573
00:32:52,125 --> 00:32:54,540
I'll be on the first thing I find

Wining Boy. [laughs]
576

Where you coming from? Where you been?
I know you want another drink.
577
00:33:04,708 --> 00:33:06,165
You know Cleotha died.
578
00:33:06,166 --> 00:33:09,665
Oh, I heard that
last time I was down there.
579
00:33:09,666 --> 00:33:12,207
- Oh, I was sorry to hear that.
- [Wining Boy] Yeah.
580
00:33:12,208 --> 00:33:15,958
One of her friends wrote and told me.
I never knew she was sick.
581
00:33:16,458 --> 00:33:19,333
They was nailing her coffin shut
by the time I heard about it.
582
00:33:19,958 --> 00:33:23,165
Cleotha always did have
a nice way about her.
583
00:33:23,166 --> 00:33:26,915
Man, that woman was something.
I used to thank the Lord.
584
00:33:26,916 --> 00:33:29,415
Many a night I sat up
and looked out over my life.
585
00:33:29,416 --> 00:33:31,874
Said, "Well, I had Cleotha."

[both chuckle]
587
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,540
When it didn't look like there was
nothing else for me, I said, "Thank God."
588
00:33:36,541 --> 00:33:38,166
"At least I had that."
589
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,083
If ever... I go anywhere in this life,
590
00:33:45,250 --> 00:33:47,541
I done known a good woman.
591
00:33:48,083 --> 00:33:49,083
[Doaker] Mm-hmm.
592
00:33:51,833 --> 00:33:53,832
And that used to hold me
to the next morning.

- [Doaker laughs, snorts]
- [door opens]

You... you a fool.

Aw, hell!
596
00:33:59,458 --> 00:34:00,832
Ha ha!
597
00:34:00,833 --> 00:34:03,290
Look here! We was just talking about you.
598
00:34:03,291 --> 00:34:05,832
Doaker say you left out of here
with a whole sack of money.
599
00:34:05,833 --> 00:34:07,957
I told him we wasn't gonna see you
till you got broke.
600
00:34:07,958 --> 00:34:10,665
What you mean "broke"?
I got a whole pocketful of money.

00:34:10,666 --> 00:34:12,666
[both laughing]
602
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,165
[Boy Willie] Doaker say Berniece asked you
for three dollars. You got mad and left.
603
00:34:17,166 --> 00:34:19,832
Berniece try to rule over you too much
for me. That's why I left.
604
00:34:19,833 --> 00:34:21,707
It wasn't about no three dollars.
605
00:34:21,708 --> 00:34:24,540
Wining Boy, where you coming from?
Where you been?
606
00:34:24,541 --> 00:34:26,332
[Wining Boy] I been down in Kansas City.

00:34:26,333 --> 00:34:28,582
You remember Lymon? Lymon Jackson.
608
00:34:28,583 --> 00:34:31,165
Yeah, I used to know his daddy.
609
00:34:31,166 --> 00:34:32,249
[chuckles]
610
00:34:32,250 --> 00:34:36,832
Where you getting these sacks of money?
Doaker say you left with a sack of money.
611
00:34:36,833 --> 00:34:38,207
Turn some of it loose.
612
00:34:38,208 --> 00:34:40,124
I was just fixing to ask you for $5.
613
00:34:40,125 --> 00:34:41,082
[all laughing]
614
00:34:41,083 --> 00:34:43,124
[Boy Willie] Doaker tell you about Sutter?
615
00:34:43,125 --> 00:34:46,374
The Ghosts of the Yellow Dog got him

616
00:34:46,375 --> 00:34:50,332
Berniece done seen his ghost
and everything. He right upstairs.
617
00:34:50,333 --> 00:34:54,332
Hey, Sutter! Wining Boy here.
Come on and get a drink.
618
00:34:54,333 --> 00:34:56,915
How many that make
the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog done got?
619
00:34:56,916 --> 00:35:00,165
Must be about nine or ten,
eleven or twelve. I don't know.
620
00:35:00,166 --> 00:35:01,250
[Wining Boy] Mm.
621
00:35:01,958 --> 00:35:05,040
Berniece say she don't believe all that
about the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog.
622
00:35:05,041 --> 00:35:07,207
She ain't gotta believe. [chuckles]
623
00:35:07,208 --> 00:35:10,540
You go ask them white folks
in Sunflower County if they believe.
624
00:35:10,541 --> 00:35:13,124
You go ask Sutter if he believe.
625
00:35:13,125 --> 00:35:14,999
I don't care if Berniece believe or not.
626
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,957
Berniece don't believe in nothing.
She just think she believe.
627
00:35:18,958 --> 00:35:20,291
Let's not get on Berniece now.
628
00:35:23,541 --> 00:35:26,291
Doaker, give me a drink.
I see Wining Boy got his glass.
629
00:35:27,500 --> 00:35:28,624

631
00:35:31,375 --> 00:35:32,707
[Boy Willie laughs]
632
00:35:32,708 --> 00:35:35,999
Wining Boy, what you doing in Kansas City?

633
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:40,624
Yeah, I hear they got

634
00:35:40,625 --> 00:35:43,124
I sure like to go down there and find out.
635
00:35:43,125 --> 00:35:45,457
[Wining Boy] Man, the women down there

637
00:35:46,500 --> 00:35:49,540
Uh, you gonna sit up in here

638
00:35:49,541 --> 00:35:51,290
Leave a dollar on the table
when you get up.
639
00:35:51,291 --> 00:35:53,082
You showing your hospitality.
640
00:35:53,083 --> 00:35:55,500
I know I ain't got to pay
for your hospitality.
641
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,790
Doaker say they had you and Lymon
down on the Parchman Farm.
642
00:35:59,791 --> 00:36:01,540
Had you on my old stomping grounds.
643
00:36:01,541 --> 00:36:05,207
Me and Lymon was hauling wood
for Jim Miller
644
00:36:05,208 --> 00:36:07,125
and keeping us a little bit to sell.
645
00:36:08,083 --> 00:36:09,665
That's when Crawley got killed.
646
00:36:09,666 --> 00:36:11,750
[emotional music playing]
647
00:36:13,333 --> 00:36:15,333
[Lymon] They ambushed us right there.
648
00:36:16,666 --> 00:36:20,374
Me and Boy Willie got away,
but sheriff got us.
649
00:36:20,375 --> 00:36:22,374
Say we was stealing wood.
650
00:36:22,375 --> 00:36:23,999
They... they shot me in my stomach.
651
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,207
They looking for Lymon down there now.
652
00:36:26,208 --> 00:36:28,832
[scoffs] They rounded him up
and threw him in jail for not working.
653
00:36:28,833 --> 00:36:31,249
- Fined me $100.
- [Boy Willie] Mm-hmm.
654
00:36:31,250 --> 00:36:33,749
Mr. Stovall come and paid my $100,
655
00:36:33,750 --> 00:36:37,790
and the judge say I got to work for him
to pay him back his $100.
656
00:36:37,791 --> 00:36:41,082
Soon as Stovall turned his back,
Lymon was gone.
657
00:36:41,083 --> 00:36:42,207
[laughing]
658
00:36:42,208 --> 00:36:45,207
I told Boy Willie I'm gonna stay up here.
I ain't going back with him.
659
00:36:45,208 --> 00:36:48,458
Ain't nobody twisting your arm
to make you go back. Do what you wanna do.
660
00:36:48,958 --> 00:36:51,832
I'll go back with you.
I'm on my way down there.
661
00:36:51,833 --> 00:36:54,290
You gonna take the train?
I'm gonna take the train.
662
00:36:54,291 --> 00:36:56,166
They treat you better up here.
663
00:36:56,875 --> 00:36:59,040
I ain't worried
about nobody mistreating me.
664
00:36:59,041 --> 00:37:01,249
They treat you
like you let them treat you.
665
00:37:01,250 --> 00:37:03,749
They mistreat me,
I mistreat them right back.
666
00:37:03,750 --> 00:37:06,124
Ain't no difference
in me and the white man.
667
00:37:06,125 --> 00:37:10,082
That's why you gonna end up
back down there on the Parchman Farm.
668
00:37:10,083 --> 00:37:14,124
I ain't thinking about no Parchman Farm.
See, you liable to go back before me.
669
00:37:14,125 --> 00:37:16,165
They work you too hard down there.
670
00:37:16,166 --> 00:37:18,832
All that weeding and hoeing
and chopping down trees.
671
00:37:18,833 --> 00:37:20,499
[scoffs] I ain't like all that.
672
00:37:20,500 --> 00:37:23,415
You ain't got to like your job
on the Parchman.
673
00:37:23,416 --> 00:37:26,374
Tell him, Doaker. The only one
got to like his job is the water boy.
674
00:37:26,375 --> 00:37:30,207
And if he don't like his job,

and Miss Ophelia
was so happy with that piano,
849
00:46:06,583 --> 00:46:10,540
it got to be just about all she would do
was play on that piano.
850
00:46:10,541 --> 00:46:13,332
Just get up in the morning,
get all dressed up,
851
00:46:13,333 --> 00:46:15,332
and sit down and play on that piano.
852
00:46:15,333 --> 00:46:18,333
[Doaker] All right. Time go along.
Time go along.
853
00:46:19,041 --> 00:46:21,165
Miss Ophelia got to missing my grandmother
854
00:46:21,166 --> 00:46:24,707
and how she would cook,
clean the house, talk to her and whatnot,
855
00:46:24,708 --> 00:46:27,874
and she missed having my daddy around
to fetch things for her.
856
00:46:27,875 --> 00:46:32,874
So she asked to see if maybe
she could trade back that piano
857
00:46:32,875 --> 00:46:34,624
and get her niggers back.
858
00:46:34,625 --> 00:46:38,165
Mr. Nolander said, "No!"
Said a deal was a deal.
859
00:46:38,166 --> 00:46:41,665
And him and Sutter
had a big falling out about it.
860
00:46:41,666 --> 00:46:45,249
And Miss Ophelia took sick to the bed.
She wouldn't get up in the morning.
861
00:46:45,250 --> 00:46:48,333
That's when Sutter
called our granddaddy up to the house.
862
00:46:48,833 --> 00:46:51,082
[Doaker] Now, our granddaddy's name
was Boy Willie.
863
00:46:51,083 --> 00:46:53,582
Same like Boy Willie.
That's who he was named after.
864
00:46:53,583 --> 00:46:57,290
Only they called him Willie Boy.
865
00:46:57,291 --> 00:46:59,665
Now, he was a worker of wood.
866
00:46:59,666 --> 00:47:01,750
[intriguing music playing]
867
00:47:02,958 --> 00:47:05,958
[Doaker] He could make you
anything you wanted out of wood.
868
00:47:07,583 --> 00:47:08,874
Them white fellas around there
869
00:47:08,875 --> 00:47:10,999
used to get him
to make all kinds of things for them,
870
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,500
and they'd pay Mr. Sutter a nice price.
871
00:47:15,791 --> 00:47:19,832
'Cause everything my granddaddy made,
Mr. Sutter owned
872
00:47:19,833 --> 00:47:21,582
'cause he owned him.
873
00:47:21,583 --> 00:47:25,707
That's why when Mr. Nolander offered
to buy him to keep the family together,
874
00:47:25,708 --> 00:47:27,082
Sutter wouldn't sell him.
875
00:47:27,083 --> 00:47:30,541
Told Mr. Nolander
he ain't have enough money to buy him.
876
00:47:31,041 --> 00:47:32,624
Now, am I telling it right, Wining Boy?
877
00:47:32,625 --> 00:47:33,958
You telling it.
878
00:47:34,875 --> 00:47:36,832
Sutter called my granddaddy
up to the house
879
00:47:36,833 --> 00:47:40,749
and told him to carve a picture
of my grandmother and my daddy
880
00:47:40,750 --> 00:47:42,874
on the piano for Miss Ophelia,
881
00:47:42,875 --> 00:47:44,290
and he took and done this.
882
00:47:44,291 --> 00:47:46,082
[gentle piano music playing]
883
00:47:46,083 --> 00:47:47,291
[Doaker] You see that?
884
00:47:48,166 --> 00:47:50,750
That's my grandmother, Berniece.
885
00:47:51,750 --> 00:47:53,750
She looked just like that.
886
00:47:54,333 --> 00:47:57,249
And he put a picture of my daddy
when he wasn't nothing but a little boy,
887
00:47:57,250 --> 00:47:58,790
the way he remembered him.
888
00:47:58,791 --> 00:48:01,125
He carved 'em up out of his memory.
889
00:48:01,708 --> 00:48:04,583
Only thing is he ain't stop there.
890
00:48:05,125 --> 00:48:08,915
He took and carved all of this.
891
00:48:08,916 --> 00:48:12,165
He put a picture of his mama, Mama Esther,
892
00:48:12,166 --> 00:48:14,957
and his daddy, Boy Charles.
893
00:48:14,958 --> 00:48:18,707
And on the side here, that's when him
and Mama Berniece got married.
894
00:48:18,708 --> 00:48:21,083
They called that "jumping the broom."
895
00:48:22,250 --> 00:48:25,624
He put all kind of things on the side
what happened to our family.
896
00:48:25,625 --> 00:48:28,874
And when Sutter seen the piano
with all these carvings on it...
897
00:48:28,875 --> 00:48:29,915
[exclaims]
898
00:48:29,916 --> 00:48:31,540
...he got mad!
899
00:48:31,541 --> 00:48:33,457
He didn't ask for all this,
900
00:48:33,458 --> 00:48:36,124
but wasn't nothing he could do about it.
901
00:48:36,125 --> 00:48:39,707
But when Miss Ophelia seen it,
oh, well, she got excited.
902
00:48:39,708 --> 00:48:43,624
Now, she had her piano
and her niggers too.
903
00:48:43,625 --> 00:48:45,332
She took back to playing on it.
904
00:48:45,333 --> 00:48:48,915
Played on it right on up
to the day she died. All right.
905
00:48:48,916 --> 00:48:51,207
Now, our brother Boy Charles,
906
00:48:51,208 --> 00:48:54,958
that's Berniece and Boy Willie's daddy,
907
00:48:55,666 --> 00:48:57,666
he the oldest of us three boys.
908
00:48:58,333 --> 00:49:01,416
He'd have been 57 if he had lived.
909
00:49:01,958 --> 00:49:05,083
Died in 1911 when he was 31 years old.
910
00:49:06,500 --> 00:49:10,749
Boy Charles talked about that piano
all the time.
911
00:49:10,750 --> 00:49:12,790
Couldn't get it off his mind.
912
00:49:12,791 --> 00:49:16,666
Two, three months go by,
he'd be talking about it again.
913
00:49:17,416 --> 00:49:20,958
He'd be talking about
taking it out of Sutter's house.
914
00:49:21,541 --> 00:49:26,290
He said it was the story
of our whole family,
915
00:49:26,291 --> 00:49:28,374
and long as Sutter had it,
916
00:49:28,375 --> 00:49:29,665
he had us.
917
00:49:29,666 --> 00:49:31,583
Said we still in slavery.
918
00:49:32,583 --> 00:49:34,749
Me and Wining Boy tried
to talk him out of it,
919
00:49:34,750 --> 00:49:36,416
but it wouldn't do any good.
920
00:49:36,958 --> 00:49:39,916
Soon as he'd quiet down about it,
he'd start up again.
921
00:49:41,541 --> 00:49:43,832
We seen where he wasn't gonna
get his mind off it,
922
00:49:43,833 --> 00:49:46,624
so on 4th of July, 1911,
923
00:49:46,625 --> 00:49:49,832
while Sutter was at the picnic
what the county give every year...
924
00:49:49,833 --> 00:49:51,707
[dramatic music playing]
925
00:49:51,708 --> 00:49:53,790
[fireworks exploding]
926
00:49:53,791 --> 00:49:56,291
...me and Wining Boy
went on down there with him,
927
00:49:57,208 --> 00:50:01,125
and we took this piano
out of Sutter's house.
928
00:50:05,750 --> 00:50:08,583
Boy Willie couldn't have been
no more than six years old.
929
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:12,624
His daddy had decided
930
00:50:12,625 --> 00:50:15,790
he was gonna stick around
till Sutter got back.
931
00:50:15,791 --> 00:50:18,250
Make it look like business as usual.
932
00:50:19,250 --> 00:50:22,833
I don't know what happened when Sutter
came home and found that piano gone,
933
00:50:24,041 --> 00:50:28,166
but somebody went up to Boy Charles' house
and set it on fire.
934
00:50:28,916 --> 00:50:30,957
He wasn't in there.
He must have seen 'em coming.
935
00:50:30,958 --> 00:50:36,000
'Cause he went down
and caught the 3:57 Yellow Dog.
936
00:50:37,083 --> 00:50:39,624
He ain't know they was gonna
come down there and stop the train.
937
00:50:39,625 --> 00:50:40,915
[horse whinnies]
938
00:50:40,916 --> 00:50:42,375
They stopped the train,
939
00:50:43,333 --> 00:50:48,083
found Boy Charles and three of them hobos
in one of them boxcars.
940
00:50:49,041 --> 00:50:51,041
[brakes squeal]
941
00:50:52,375 --> 00:50:53,207
[loud thud]
942
00:50:53,208 --> 00:50:55,582
[Doaker] Must've got mad
when they couldn't find that piano
943
00:50:55,583 --> 00:50:59,416
'cause they set the boxcar on fire.
944
00:51:00,291 --> 00:51:01,958
Killed everybody.
945
00:51:04,416 --> 00:51:06,083
Now, nobody know who done that.
946
00:51:07,166 --> 00:51:10,124
Some folks say it was Sutter
'cause it was his piano.
947
00:51:10,125 --> 00:51:12,207
Some folks say it was Sheriff Carter.
948
00:51:12,208 --> 00:51:15,082
Some people say
it was Ed Saunders or Robert Smith,
949
00:51:15,083 --> 00:51:18,540
but don't nobody know for sure.
950
00:51:18,541 --> 00:51:20,625
[dramatic music continues]
951
00:51:22,208 --> 00:51:27,582
It was about two months after that
that Ed Saunders fell down his well.
952
00:51:27,583 --> 00:51:31,750
Just upped and fell down his well
for no reason.
953
00:51:32,750 --> 00:51:35,874
People say it was the ghosts
of them men what died in that boxcar
954
00:51:35,875 --> 00:51:37,540
pushed him in his well.
955
00:51:37,541 --> 00:51:41,457
And they started calling them
the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog.
956
00:51:41,458 --> 00:51:43,416
That's how all that got started.
957
00:51:44,208 --> 00:51:47,500
And that's why me and Wining Boy say
958
00:51:48,166 --> 00:51:52,416
Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
959
00:51:53,291 --> 00:51:55,833
'Cause her daddy died over it.
960
00:51:58,083 --> 00:51:59,583
[Boy Willie] All that's in the past.
961
00:52:03,208 --> 00:52:04,541
If my daddy
962
00:52:05,625 --> 00:52:10,916
had seen where he could have traded
that piano... in for some land of his own,
963
00:52:12,375 --> 00:52:14,125
it wouldn't be sitting up here now.
964
00:52:15,208 --> 00:52:18,041
He spent his whole life
farming somebody else's land.
965
00:52:20,250 --> 00:52:21,500
I ain't gonna do that.
966
00:52:23,416 --> 00:52:25,082
See, he couldn't do no better.
967
00:52:25,083 --> 00:52:27,374
When he come along,
he ain't had nothing to build on.
968
00:52:27,375 --> 00:52:29,458
His daddy ain't had nothing to give him.
969
00:52:30,500 --> 00:52:32,708
The only thing my daddy had to give me
970
00:52:33,833 --> 00:52:36,915
was that piano,
and he died giving me that.
971
00:52:36,916 --> 00:52:40,374
I ain't gonna let it sit there and rot
without trying to do something with it.
972
00:52:40,375 --> 00:52:44,415
And if Berniece can't see that,
I'm gonna go and sell my half.
973
00:52:44,416 --> 00:52:46,124
You and Wining Boy know I'm right.
974
00:52:46,125 --> 00:52:49,999
Ain't nobody said nothing
about who's right and who's wrong.
975
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,958
I'm just telling the man about the piano.
976
00:52:52,875 --> 00:52:58,250
I'm telling him why me and Wining Boy say
Berniece ain't gonna sell it.
977
00:52:59,625 --> 00:53:01,250
Can see why you say that now.
978
00:53:02,458 --> 00:53:05,791
I told Boy Willie
he ought to stay up here with me.
979
00:53:07,333 --> 00:53:08,458
[Boy Willie] You stay.
980
00:53:09,375 --> 00:53:10,625
I'm going back.
981
00:53:13,083 --> 00:53:14,875
That's what I'm gonna do with my life.
982
00:53:15,958 --> 00:53:18,833
Why I got to learn to do something
I don't know how to do
983
00:53:19,333 --> 00:53:21,125
when I already know how to farm?
984
00:53:22,166 --> 00:53:23,166
You stay.
985
00:53:24,875 --> 00:53:27,375
Make your own way
if that's what you wanna do.
986
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,708
I'm going back
to live my life the way I wanna live it.
987
00:53:36,916 --> 00:53:38,333
[Boy Charles] You know what this is?
988
00:53:39,166 --> 00:53:40,583
[young Boy Willie] I don't know.
989
00:53:42,333 --> 00:53:43,707
[Boy Charles] What you think it is?
990
00:53:43,708 --> 00:53:44,791
[young Boy Willie] Dirt.
991
00:53:45,916 --> 00:53:47,083
[Boy Charles] Nah, son.
992
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:49,208
This ain't no dirt.
993
00:53:49,708 --> 00:53:51,166
This here is land.
994
00:53:53,500 --> 00:53:55,958
- You know the difference?
- No.
995
00:53:57,875 --> 00:53:58,916
[Boy Charles] See, dirt...
996
00:54:00,166 --> 00:54:03,041
dirt'll blow away, be gone with the wind.
997
00:54:04,083 --> 00:54:05,083
But land...
998
00:54:05,750 --> 00:54:06,708
[chuckles softly]
999
00:54:07,250 --> 00:54:08,916
...land'll last you forever, son.
1000
00:54:15,500 --> 00:54:17,458
Go ahead. Feel it now. Crush it.
1001
00:54:18,333 --> 00:54:20,333
[mysterious music playing]
1002
00:54:22,416 --> 00:54:23,416
You feel that?
1003
00:54:24,541 --> 00:54:25,708
Feel good, don't it?
1004
00:54:27,791 --> 00:54:29,791
[mysterious music continues]
1005
00:54:44,708 --> 00:54:47,832
[man on radio] One of the beings
walked towards me
1006
00:54:47,833 --> 00:54:50,625
slowly but with intent.
1007
00:54:51,250 --> 00:54:53,249
My comrades ran away in fear.
1008
00:54:53,250 --> 00:54:55,583
- [door opens]
- [Berniece] Go on and get up them stairs.
1009
00:54:56,958 --> 00:54:59,082
- [man on radio] ...in a tall tree.
- Is that--
1010
00:54:59,083 --> 00:55:02,290
Lord! I... I know
that ain't Wining Boy sitting there.
1011
00:55:02,291 --> 00:55:03,750
[Wining Boy] Hey, Berniece.
1012
00:55:04,500 --> 00:55:06,374
You all had this planned.
1013
00:55:06,375 --> 00:55:08,874
You and Boy Willie had this planned.
1014
00:55:08,875 --> 00:55:11,457
[Wining Boy] I didn't know
he was gonna be here.
1015
00:55:11,458 --> 00:55:14,665
I'm on my way down home and stopped by
to see you and Doaker first.
1016
00:55:14,666 --> 00:55:16,874
Told that nigger,
he left here with that sack of money,
1017
00:55:16,875 --> 00:55:19,040
we thought
he wasn't never gonna see him again.
1018
00:55:19,041 --> 00:55:20,791
[Wining Boy] Give your uncle a hug.
1019
00:55:21,375 --> 00:55:24,874
Boy Willie, I ain't see that truck.
Thought you was out selling watermelons.
1020
00:55:24,875 --> 00:55:27,666
We done sold 'em all. Sold the truck too.
1021
00:55:28,458 --> 00:55:31,415
I don't wanna go through your stuff.
I told you. Go back where you belong.
1022
00:55:31,416 --> 00:55:34,540
Hell, I was just teasing you, woman.
You can't take no teasing?
1023
00:55:34,541 --> 00:55:36,207
Wining Boy, when you get here?
1024
00:55:36,208 --> 00:55:38,750
A little while ago.
I took the train from Kansas City.
1025
00:55:39,250 --> 00:55:41,749
Let me go change my clothes,
then I'll cook you something to eat.
1026
00:55:41,750 --> 00:55:43,999
Hey! I like the sound of that.
1027
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:47,000
Come on, Maretha. Change your clothes
before you get 'em dirty.
1028
00:55:47,500 --> 00:55:48,999
[Wining Boy] Maretha sure getting big.
1029
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:50,124
- Ain't she, Doaker?
- Mm-hmm.
1030
00:55:50,125 --> 00:55:53,999
And just as pretty as she wanna be.
I didn't know Crawley had it in him.
1031
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:55,374
[laughing]
1032
00:55:55,375 --> 00:56:00,082
Hey, Lymon, get up on the other side
of this piano. Let me see something.
1033
00:56:00,083 --> 00:56:03,582
- Boy Willie, what is you doing?
- I wanna see how heavy this piano is.
1034
00:56:03,583 --> 00:56:04,625
[grunts]
1035
00:56:05,125 --> 00:56:06,374
Get up over there, Lymon.
1036
00:56:06,375 --> 00:56:09,999
Go on and leave that piano alone.
You ain't taking it and selling it.
1037
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,124
Just as soon as I get them watermelons
off that truck.
1038
00:56:12,125 --> 00:56:13,999
[Wining Boy]
I got something to say about that.
1039
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:15,332
This my daddy's piano.
1040
00:56:15,333 --> 00:56:17,958
He ain't took it by himself.
Me and Doaker helped him.
1041
00:56:19,166 --> 00:56:20,458
He died by himself.
1042
00:56:21,458 --> 00:56:23,208
Where was you and Doaker at then?
1043
00:56:24,291 --> 00:56:26,082
Don't come telling me nothing
about this piano.
1044
00:56:26,083 --> 00:56:28,874
This me and Berniece's piano.
Am I right, Doaker?
1045
00:56:28,875 --> 00:56:31,207
Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you right.
1046
00:56:31,208 --> 00:56:33,082
Come on, Lymon.
Let's see if we can lift it up.
1047
00:56:33,083 --> 00:56:36,208
Get you a real good grip
and lift it up on your end. Come on.
1048
00:56:40,958 --> 00:56:42,958
[stirring music playing]
1049
00:56:44,666 --> 00:56:46,082
- [Boy Willie] Ready?
- [Lymon] Ready.
1050
00:56:46,083 --> 00:56:48,375
[jazz music playing on radio]
1051
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:51,124
[Boy Willie] Lift.
1052
00:56:51,125 --> 00:56:52,582
[stirring music continues]
1053
00:56:52,583 --> 00:56:53,499
[Boy Willie grunts]
1054
00:56:53,500 --> 00:56:56,415
[static on radio]
1055
00:56:56,416 --> 00:56:58,500
[stirring music continues]
1056
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:04,583
[Boy Willie and Lymon grunting]
1057
00:57:08,500 --> 00:57:10,000
[static on radio]
1058
00:57:11,208 --> 00:57:12,332
[Boy Willie] What you think?
1059
00:57:12,333 --> 00:57:16,375
It's heavy, but you can move it.
Only it ain't gonna be easy.
1060
00:57:17,791 --> 00:57:19,333
[Boy Willie] Wasn't that heavy to me.
1061
00:57:20,541 --> 00:57:22,625
Okay. Let's put it back.
1062
00:57:24,666 --> 00:57:26,208
[grunting]
1063
00:57:28,250 --> 00:57:30,250
[stirring music continues]
1064
00:57:43,291 --> 00:57:44,416
[Berniece] Boy Willie,
1065
00:57:45,333 --> 00:57:47,874
you gonna play around with me
one too many times,
1066
00:57:47,875 --> 00:57:50,207
and then God gonna bless you,
and West gonna dress you.
1067
00:57:50,208 --> 00:57:52,041
Now set that piano back over there.
1068
00:57:53,875 --> 00:57:55,833
- I'm trying to get me some land, woman.
- Mm-hmm.
1069
00:57:56,416 --> 00:57:58,665
Wining Boy, you want me
to fry you up some pork chops?
1070
00:57:58,666 --> 00:58:00,207
[Wining Boy] It sound good to me.
1071
00:58:00,208 --> 00:58:02,833
See, now, I'm gonna tell you
the way I see it.
1072
00:58:04,666 --> 00:58:06,999
Papa Boy Charles brought that piano
into the house.
1073
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,875
Now I'm supposed to build on
what they left me.
1074
00:58:10,416 --> 00:58:13,165
Can't do nothing with that piano,
letting it sit up there in the house.
1075
00:58:13,166 --> 00:58:16,790
That'd be like if I let them watermelons
sit out there and rot. I'd be a fool.
1076
00:58:16,791 --> 00:58:21,291
Okay, now, if you say to me,
"Boy Willie, I'm using that piano."
1077
00:58:21,875 --> 00:58:24,624
"I give out lessons on it.
That help me pay my rent."
1078
00:58:24,625 --> 00:58:26,832
Or whatever,
then that'd be something else.
1079
00:58:26,833 --> 00:58:29,499
I'd have to say,
"Well, Berniece using that piano."
1080
00:58:29,500 --> 00:58:31,707
"She building on it.
Let her go on and use it."
1081
00:58:31,708 --> 00:58:33,791
"I got to find another way
to get Sutter's land."
1082
00:58:35,083 --> 00:58:38,665
But Doaker say you ain't touched
that piano the whole time it's been here.
1083
00:58:38,666 --> 00:58:40,833
So why you wanna try and stand in my way?
1084
00:58:41,958 --> 00:58:44,291
See, you just looking
at the sentimental value.
1085
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:46,250
See, that's good.
1086
00:58:47,500 --> 00:58:50,957
That's all right. I take my hat off
whenever somebody say my daddy's name.
1087
00:58:50,958 --> 00:58:54,040
But I ain't gonna be no fool
about no sentimental value.
1088
00:58:54,041 --> 00:58:56,332
You can sit up there
and look at that piano for 100 years.
1089
00:58:56,333 --> 00:58:59,500
It's just gonna be a piano.
You can't make more than that.
1090
00:59:03,666 --> 00:59:05,916
Now, I wanna get Sutter's land
with the piano.
1091
00:59:06,541 --> 00:59:11,083
I get Sutter's land, go down there
and cash the crop and get my seed.
1092
00:59:11,666 --> 00:59:14,874
See, as long as I got the land
and the seed, I'm all right.
1093
00:59:14,875 --> 00:59:17,333
I can always get me
a little something else.
1094
00:59:18,125 --> 00:59:20,707
The kind of man my daddy was,
he would've understood that.
1095
00:59:20,708 --> 00:59:22,874
Now, I'm sorry
you can't see it that way, Berniece,
1096
00:59:22,875 --> 00:59:26,666
but that's why I'm taking that piano
out of here and selling it.
1097
00:59:27,166 --> 00:59:28,500
Look at this piano.
1098
00:59:30,166 --> 00:59:31,125
Look at it.
1099
00:59:33,708 --> 00:59:37,249
Mama Ola polished this piano
with her tears
1100
00:59:37,250 --> 00:59:39,041
for 17 years.
1101
00:59:39,791 --> 00:59:43,833
For 17 years,
she rubbed on it till her hands bled.
1102
00:59:44,625 --> 00:59:48,583
Then she rubbed the blood in,
mixed it with the rest of the blood on it.
1103
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,749
Every day,
God breathed life into her body.
1104
00:59:52,750 --> 00:59:57,416
She rubbed and cleaned
and polished and prayed over it.
1105
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:00,791
"Play something for me, Berniece."
1106
01:00:01,791 --> 01:00:03,500
"Play something for me, Berniece."
1107
01:00:04,125 --> 01:00:06,458
"Play something for me, Berniece."
Every day.
1108
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:10,375
"I cleaned it up for you.
Play something for me, Berniece."
1109
01:00:12,208 --> 01:00:14,375
You always talking about your daddy.
1110
01:00:14,875 --> 01:00:18,082
But you don't never stop to look at
what his foolishness cost your mama.
1111
01:00:18,083 --> 01:00:22,625
Seventeen years' worth
of cold nights in an empty bed. For what?
1112
01:00:24,083 --> 01:00:25,291
For a piano?
1113
01:00:25,916 --> 01:00:27,375
For a piece of wood?
1114
01:00:28,375 --> 01:00:30,208
To get even with somebody?
1115
01:00:33,458 --> 01:00:34,500
I look at you,
1116
01:00:35,833 --> 01:00:37,458
and you're all the same.
1117
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:42,040
You, Papa Boy Charles,
Wining Boy, Doaker, Crawley.
1118
01:00:42,041 --> 01:00:43,249
Y'all alike.
1119
01:00:43,250 --> 01:00:45,832
All this thieving and killing.
Thieving and killing.
1120
01:00:45,833 --> 01:00:47,082
What it ever lead to?
1121
01:00:47,083 --> 01:00:50,332
More killing and more thieving.
I ain't never seen it come to nothing.
1122
01:00:50,333 --> 01:00:52,499
People getting burnt up.
People getting shot.
1123
01:00:52,500 --> 01:00:55,915
People falling down their wells.
It don't never stop!
1124
01:00:55,916 --> 01:00:58,750
Come on, now, Berniece.
Ain't no sense in getting upset.
1125
01:01:00,500 --> 01:01:03,041
I done a little bit of stealing
here and there,
1126
01:01:03,791 --> 01:01:05,708
but I ain't never killed nobody.
1127
01:01:06,666 --> 01:01:09,915
I can't be speaking for nobody else.
You... you all got to speak for yourself.
1128
01:01:09,916 --> 01:01:11,583
But I ain't never killed nobody.
1129
01:01:13,250 --> 01:01:16,540
You killed Crawley
just as sure as if you pulled the trigger.
1130
01:01:16,541 --> 01:01:18,208
[Boy Willie] See, that's just ignorant.
1131
01:01:18,791 --> 01:01:21,082
That's downright foolish
for you to say something like that.
1132
01:01:21,083 --> 01:01:23,124
You ain't doing nothing
but showing your ignorance.
1133
01:01:23,125 --> 01:01:27,082
If the nigger was here, I'd whoop his ass
for getting me and Lymon shot at.
1134
01:01:27,083 --> 01:01:30,332
- Crawley ain't knew about that wood.
- We told the man about the wood!
1135
01:01:30,333 --> 01:01:32,665
Ask Lymon. He knew all about the wood.
1136
01:01:32,666 --> 01:01:36,165
He seen we was sneaking it.
Why else we gonna go out there at night?
1137
01:01:36,166 --> 01:01:38,249
Don't tell me
Crawley ain't knew about the wood.
1138
01:01:38,250 --> 01:01:41,583
Them fellas try to run us off it,
and Crawley tried to bully them.
1139
01:01:42,208 --> 01:01:43,749
Me and Lymon seen the sheriff with them.
1140
01:01:43,750 --> 01:01:46,249
We give in.
No sense getting killed over $50.
1141
01:01:46,250 --> 01:01:49,332
- Crawley ain't knew. You stole that wood!
- [Boy Willie] We ain't stole no wood.
1142
01:01:49,333 --> 01:01:52,915
We was hauling wood for Jim Miller
and keeping us a little bit on the side.
1143
01:01:52,916 --> 01:01:56,833
We dumped our little bit down by the creek
till we had enough to make a load.
1144
01:01:57,708 --> 01:02:00,874
Them fellas seen us. We figured
we better get it before they did.
1145
01:02:00,875 --> 01:02:04,082
We got Crawley to help us load it.
We figured we'd cut him in.
1146
01:02:04,083 --> 01:02:06,958
Crawley trying to keep the wolf
from his door. We was helping.
1147
01:02:07,458 --> 01:02:09,750
[Lymon] Me and Boy Willie
told him about the wood.
1148
01:02:11,791 --> 01:02:14,165
We told him some fellas
might be trying to beat us to it.
1149
01:02:14,166 --> 01:02:18,083
He said, "Whoa.
Let me go back, get my .38."
1150
01:02:19,166 --> 01:02:20,625
That's what caused the trouble.
1151
01:02:23,458 --> 01:02:26,166
If Crawley ain't had that gun,
he'd still be alive today.
1152
01:02:28,958 --> 01:02:31,916
[Lymon] We had it about half loaded
when they come up on us.
1153
01:02:32,916 --> 01:02:35,249
We seen the sheriff with 'em.
We... we tried to get away.
1154
01:02:35,250 --> 01:02:37,999
We ducked round
near that bend in the creek,
1155
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:39,707
but they was down there too.
1156
01:02:39,708 --> 01:02:41,541
Boy Willie say, "Let's give in,"
1157
01:02:42,125 --> 01:02:44,541
but Crawley pulled out his gun,
started shooting.
1158
01:02:45,250 --> 01:02:46,749
That's when they started shooting back.
1159
01:02:46,750 --> 01:02:48,833
[unsettling music playing]
1160
01:02:53,250 --> 01:02:54,375
[Boy Willie] Berniece.
1161
01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:02,333
All I know is Crawley would still be alive
if you hadn't come up there and got him.
1162
01:03:03,458 --> 01:03:05,750
I had nothing to do
with Crawley getting killed.
1163
01:03:06,375 --> 01:03:07,540
That was his own fault.
1164
01:03:07,541 --> 01:03:10,374
Crawley is dead and in the ground,
1165
01:03:10,375 --> 01:03:12,915
and you still walking around here eating.
1166
01:03:12,916 --> 01:03:14,333
That's all I know.
1167
01:03:15,583 --> 01:03:18,999
He went off to load some wood with you
and ain't never come back.
1168
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,082
I told you, woman, I had nothing to do
with Crawley getting killed!
1169
01:03:22,083 --> 01:03:23,375
He ain't here, is he?
1170
01:03:24,750 --> 01:03:25,915
He ain't here, hmm?
1171
01:03:25,916 --> 01:03:28,540
- I told you I ain't responsible--
- I said he ain't here!
1172
01:03:28,541 --> 01:03:31,374
- I don't-- Doaker, get her outta here.
- He ain't here, is he? Is he?
1173
01:03:31,375 --> 01:03:33,249
- He ain't here!
- I done told you...

01:03:33,250 --> 01:03:35,333
[unsettling music continues]
1175

1180
01:04:20,750 --> 01:04:22,333
[Berniece panting]
1181
01:04:23,666 --> 01:04:26,125
[Berniece] Easy. It's okay. It's okay.
1182
01:04:30,458 --> 01:04:32,458
[wistful music playing]
1183
01:04:43,666 --> 01:04:46,166
[Doaker] Maretha scared
to sleep upstairs now.
1184
01:04:47,125 --> 01:04:50,750
Berniece don't know,
but I seen Sutter 'fore she did.
1185
01:04:51,333 --> 01:04:52,958
- [Wining Boy] Say what?
- [Doaker] Mm-hmm.
1186
01:04:53,583 --> 01:04:54,915
About three weeks ago.
1187
01:04:54,916 --> 01:04:57,415
I had just come back from down there.
1188
01:04:57,416 --> 01:05:00,207
Sutter couldn't have been dead
more than three days.
1189
01:05:00,208 --> 01:05:01,957
He was sitting over there at the piano.
1190
01:05:01,958 --> 01:05:05,541
I come out to go to work.
He's sitting right there.
1191
01:05:06,250 --> 01:05:09,249
He say anything?
He say he was looking for Boy Willie?
1192
01:05:09,250 --> 01:05:12,333
I ain't heard him say nothing.
He just sitting there.
1193
01:05:12,916 --> 01:05:15,750
I don't believe
Boy Willie pushed him in the well though.
1194
01:05:16,250 --> 01:05:18,291
Sutter here 'cause of that piano.
1195
01:05:18,791 --> 01:05:22,207
Berniece need to go on and sell it.
Ain't done nothing but cause trouble.
1196
01:05:22,208 --> 01:05:26,915
I don't-- I agree with Berniece.
Boy Charles ain't took it to give it back.
1197
01:05:26,916 --> 01:05:30,165
He took it because he figured
he had more right to it than Sutter did.
1198
01:05:30,166 --> 01:05:33,125
If Sutter can't understand that,
that's just the way that go.
1199
01:05:33,625 --> 01:05:36,791
Sutter dead and in the ground.
Don't care where his ghost is.
1200
01:05:37,291 --> 01:05:39,958
He can hover around
and play on the piano all he want.
1201
01:05:40,500 --> 01:05:43,874
I wanna see him carry it out the house.
That's what I wanna see.
1202
01:05:43,875 --> 01:05:46,165
- [laughing]
- [funky music playing]
1203
01:05:46,166 --> 01:05:49,500
[Lymon] Two for a dollar.
Come on. Who wants some watermelon?
1204
01:05:50,250 --> 01:05:51,249
[man] I'll take five.
1205
01:05:51,250 --> 01:05:52,165
[all clamoring]
1206
01:05:52,166 --> 01:05:55,958
- [Lymon] Two big watermelon coming to you.
- [Boy Willie] It's a boy. Congratulations.
1207
01:05:58,250 --> 01:06:01,790
- You picking the right ones, ain't you?
- We got two more coming. One second.
1208
01:06:01,791 --> 01:06:04,000
Watch out. That's heavy now. Be careful.
1209
01:06:04,583 --> 01:06:06,540
- [Boy Willie] There you go. Thank you.
- All right.
1210
01:06:06,541 --> 01:06:09,458
See, this is what we call salt.
Put that on that right there.
1211
01:06:10,875 --> 01:06:13,207
- Take a bite. What you think?
- Mmm!
1212
01:06:13,208 --> 01:06:16,958
One, two, three lovely ladies.
1213
01:06:17,958 --> 01:06:19,958
[both laughing]
1214
01:06:21,125 --> 01:06:24,541
Yo, one lady asked me, "Is they sweet?"
1215
01:06:25,041 --> 01:06:27,374
I told her, "Lady,
where we grow these watermelons,
1216
01:06:27,375 --> 01:06:29,082
we put the sugar in the ground."
1217
01:06:29,083 --> 01:06:31,499
[Boy Willie laughing]
You know she believed me.
1218
01:06:31,500 --> 01:06:34,458
Talking about,
"I've never heard that before."
1219
01:06:35,208 --> 01:06:36,333
Look here, Lymon.
1220
01:06:37,208 --> 01:06:40,040
See this? Look at his eyes getting big.
1221
01:06:40,041 --> 01:06:42,582
He ain't never seen a suit like this.
1222
01:06:42,583 --> 01:06:45,790
This is 100% silk.
1223
01:06:45,791 --> 01:06:48,291
Go ahead. Put it on. See if it fit.
1224
01:06:49,625 --> 01:06:50,916
[Wining Boy chuckles]
1225
01:06:56,875 --> 01:06:57,916
Ha ha!
1226
01:06:58,458 --> 01:07:01,332
Look at that. Feel it.
1227
01:07:01,333 --> 01:07:03,874
[Lymon] This is nice.
1228
01:07:03,875 --> 01:07:06,207
Feel real nice and smooth.
1229
01:07:06,208 --> 01:07:09,000
That's a $55 suit.
1230
01:07:09,500 --> 01:07:11,582
That's the kind of suit
the big shots wear.
1231
01:07:11,583 --> 01:07:15,000
You need a pistol and a pocketful of money
to wear that suit.
1232
01:07:15,916 --> 01:07:17,957
I'll let you have it for three dollars.
1233
01:07:17,958 --> 01:07:22,333
The women will fall out of their windows
they see you in a suit like that.
1234
01:07:22,916 --> 01:07:25,165
Give me three dollars,
and wear it down the street
1235
01:07:25,166 --> 01:07:26,666
and get you a woman.
1236
01:07:27,375 --> 01:07:29,708
Put the pants on.
Let me see it with the pants.
1237
01:07:32,583 --> 01:07:35,040
Look at that. See how it fit you?
1238
01:07:35,041 --> 01:07:37,165
Give me three dollars,
and go on and take it.
1239
01:07:37,166 --> 01:07:40,957
- Look at that, Doaker. Don't he look nice?
- [Doaker] Mm-hmm. That's a nice suit.
1240
01:07:40,958 --> 01:07:43,207
Got a shirt to go with it.
Cost you a dollar.
1241
01:07:43,208 --> 01:07:45,207
Four dollars, and you got the whole deal.
1242
01:07:45,208 --> 01:07:46,915
How this look, Boy Willie?
1243
01:07:46,916 --> 01:07:49,290
That look nice.
If you like that kind of thing.
1244
01:07:49,291 --> 01:07:52,333
That's the kind of suit you need
for up here in the North.
1245
01:07:52,833 --> 01:07:56,374
Four dollars for everything?
The suit and the shirt?
1246
01:07:56,375 --> 01:07:57,499
That's cheap.
1247
01:07:57,500 --> 01:08:00,666
- I should be charging you $20.
- [Lymon] Okay.
1248
01:08:09,333 --> 01:08:10,958
- [Lymon] Oh.
- [laughing]
1249
01:08:12,125 --> 01:08:13,958
- Here go the four dollars.
- Mm.
1250
01:08:15,125 --> 01:08:17,500
You got some shoes? What size you wear?
1251
01:08:18,041 --> 01:08:19,000
Size nine.
1252
01:08:19,500 --> 01:08:22,832
That's what size I got. Size nine.
I'll let you have 'em for three dollars.
1253
01:08:22,833 --> 01:08:26,082
- Where they at? Let me see 'em.
- Whoo! They some real nice shoes too.
1254
01:08:26,083 --> 01:08:30,207
They got a nice tip to 'em.
Got pointy toe just like you want.
1255
01:08:30,208 --> 01:08:31,416
[laughs]
1256
01:08:32,208 --> 01:08:36,708
Come on, Boy Willie. Let's go out tonight.
I wanna see what it look like up here.
1257
01:08:37,833 --> 01:08:39,666
Maybe we go to the picture show.
1258
01:08:40,166 --> 01:08:42,457
Hey, Doaker.
They got picture shows up here?
1259
01:08:42,458 --> 01:08:45,249
Yeah, the Rhumba Theater.
Down there on Fullerton Street.
1260
01:08:45,250 --> 01:08:48,665
Got a speaker on the sidewalk.
Can't miss it. Boy Willie know where.
1261
01:08:48,666 --> 01:08:51,624
Let's go to the picture show, Boy Willie.
Let's find some women.
1262

Whoo! Size nine.

Cost you three dollars.
1264
01:08:56,458 --> 01:09:00,124
That's a Florsheim shoe.
That's the kind Stagger Lee wore.
1265
01:09:00,125 --> 01:09:01,250
[Lymon] Mm.
1266
01:09:02,750 --> 01:09:04,415
You sure these size nine?
1267
01:09:04,416 --> 01:09:07,874
You can look at my feet
and see we wear the same size.
1268
01:09:07,875 --> 01:09:10,040
Man, when you put on that suit
and them shoes,
1269
01:09:10,041 --> 01:09:11,707
you'll be the king of the walk.
1270
01:09:11,708 --> 01:09:13,125
I'll give you a break.
1271
01:09:13,666 --> 01:09:16,750
Go on and take 'em for... two dollars.
1272
01:09:23,625 --> 01:09:26,375
Come on, Boy Willie.
Let's go find some women.
1273

1275
01:09:35,708 --> 01:09:37,832
That's all Lymon think about is women.
1276
01:09:37,833 --> 01:09:41,458
His daddy was the same way.
I used to run around with him.
1277
01:09:42,041 --> 01:09:43,541
And I know his mama too.
1278
01:09:44,041 --> 01:09:46,415
Two strokes back,
and I would've been his daddy.

Well, he say he'll let me have it
for $30 a month.
1340
01:14:49,916 --> 01:14:51,916
[laughs] I talked him out of 35.
1341
01:14:52,958 --> 01:14:54,957
It's a nice spot,
next to Benny's diamond store.
1342
01:14:54,958 --> 01:14:56,208
[Avery] Mm-hmm. Yeah.
1343
01:15:02,500 --> 01:15:03,666
Berniece, uh...
1344
01:15:06,458 --> 01:15:07,375
Just...
1345
01:15:08,166 --> 01:15:09,666
Come on. You know, I...
1346
01:15:10,416 --> 01:15:14,083
I be at home, and I... I get to thinking.
1347
01:15:15,791 --> 01:15:18,624
You up here, and I'm down there,
1348
01:15:18,625 --> 01:15:22,041
and I get to thinking how that look
to have a preacher that ain't married.
1349
01:15:24,375 --> 01:15:26,374
I mean, it'd make
for a better congregation
1350
01:15:26,375 --> 01:15:28,957
if the... if the preacher
was settled down and married.
1351
01:15:28,958 --> 01:15:30,375
- Avery.
- Hmm?
1352
01:15:31,666 --> 01:15:32,541
Not now.
1353
01:15:33,583 --> 01:15:34,458
[Avery scoffs]
1354
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:38,000
Come on, Berniece.
You... you know how I feel about you.
1355
01:15:38,875 --> 01:15:41,665
- Now, I done got the place from Mr. Cohen.
- Mm.
1356
01:15:41,666 --> 01:15:44,582
I get the money from the bank,
I... I can fix it up real nice.
1357
01:15:44,583 --> 01:15:47,666
They give me a ten-cents-an-hour raise
down there on the job.
1358
01:15:48,208 --> 01:15:52,208
And you know me. I ain't got...
I ain't got much in the way of comforts.
1359
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:53,832
[Avery chuckles]
1360
01:15:53,833 --> 01:15:57,166
I got a hole in my pocket near about
as far as money is concerned.
1361
01:15:58,291 --> 01:15:59,458
But I ain't never
1362
01:16:00,791 --> 01:16:01,915
found my way through life
1363
01:16:01,916 --> 01:16:04,957
to a woman I cares about
like I cares about you, Berniece.
1364
01:16:04,958 --> 01:16:06,415
I need that.
1365
01:16:06,416 --> 01:16:07,458
Avery,
1366
01:16:08,541 --> 01:16:10,250
I ain't ready to get married now.
1367
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:11,958
[Avery chuckles]
1368
01:16:12,458 --> 01:16:14,457
You too young a woman
to close up, Berniece.
1369
01:16:14,458 --> 01:16:17,749
I ain't said nothing about closing up.
I got a lot of woman left in me.
1370
01:16:17,750 --> 01:16:21,750
[chuckles] Well, where's it at?
When's the last time you looked at it?
1371
01:16:24,541 --> 01:16:26,958
[Berniece] That's a nasty thing to say.
1372
01:16:28,208 --> 01:16:29,874
And you call yourself a preacher.
1373
01:16:29,875 --> 01:16:32,874
Anytime I get anywhere near you,
it's like you push me away.
1374
01:16:32,875 --> 01:16:35,082
I got enough on my hands with Maretha.
1375
01:16:35,083 --> 01:16:37,874
I got enough people
to love and take care of.
1376
01:16:37,875 --> 01:16:39,625
Okay, well, who you got to love you?
1377
01:16:42,291 --> 01:16:44,540
Can't nobody get close enough to ya.
1378
01:16:44,541 --> 01:16:47,624
Doaker can't half say nothing to you.
You jump all over Boy Willie.
1379
01:16:47,625 --> 01:16:49,416
Who you got to love you, Berniece?
1380
01:16:50,958 --> 01:16:53,749
You trying to tell me
a woman can't be nothing without a man?
1381
01:16:53,750 --> 01:16:56,458
- [scoffs] Okay.
- But you all right, hmm?
1382
01:16:57,166 --> 01:17:00,790
You can just walk out of here without me,
without a woman, and still be a man.
1383
01:17:00,791 --> 01:17:01,875
That's all right.
1384
01:17:02,375 --> 01:17:05,915
Ain't nobody gonna ask you,
"Avery, who you got to love you?"
1385
01:17:05,916 --> 01:17:07,333
That's all right for you.
1386
01:17:07,958 --> 01:17:10,624
But everybody gonna be worried
about Berniece.
1387
01:17:10,625 --> 01:17:14,290
"How Berniece gonna take care of herself?
How she raise that child without a man?"
1388
01:17:14,291 --> 01:17:16,832
"Wonder what she do with herself.
How she gonna live like that?"
1389
01:17:16,833 --> 01:17:18,832
Everybody got all kinds of questions
for Berniece.
1390
01:17:18,833 --> 01:17:21,082
Telling me I can't be a woman
unless I got a man.
1391
01:17:21,083 --> 01:17:25,124
Well, you tell me, Avery. You know.
How much woman am I?
1392
01:17:25,125 --> 01:17:29,082
It wasn't me, Berniece.
You can't blame me for nobody else.
1393
01:17:29,083 --> 01:17:31,083
I ain't blaming nobody for nothing.
1394
01:17:33,166 --> 01:17:36,041
I'm just... stating facts.
1395
01:17:38,750 --> 01:17:41,375
How long you gonna carry
Crawley with you, Berniece?
1396
01:17:42,750 --> 01:17:44,750
It's been over, what, three years?
1397
01:17:45,875 --> 01:17:49,374
At some point,
you gonna have to let go and go on.
1398
01:17:49,375 --> 01:17:52,124
Life got twists and turns.
That don't mean you stop living.
1399
01:17:52,125 --> 01:17:54,457
Crawley been dead three years, Berniece.
Three years!
1400
01:17:54,458 --> 01:17:56,874
I know how long Crawley been dead.
You ain't got to tell me.
1401
01:17:56,875 --> 01:17:58,999
I... I just ain't ready
to get married right now.
1402
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:01,000
Well, what is you ready for, Berniece?
1403
01:18:01,833 --> 01:18:04,415
You... you just gonna drift along
from day to day?
1404
01:18:04,416 --> 01:18:07,082
Life's more than about just making it
from one day to another.
1405
01:18:07,083 --> 01:18:10,041
You gonna look up one day,
and it's all gonna be past you.
1406
01:18:10,666 --> 01:18:12,583
I'm standing here right now.
1407
01:18:14,708 --> 01:18:17,333
But I don't know how much longer
I'm gonna be waiting on you.
1408
01:18:18,166 --> 01:18:19,833
Avery, I told you.
1409
01:18:20,458 --> 01:18:22,916
When you get your church,
we can sit down and talk about this.
1410
01:18:23,666 --> 01:18:25,874
I got too many other things
to deal with right now.
1411
01:18:25,875 --> 01:18:27,082
Yeah.
1412
01:18:27,083 --> 01:18:28,750
[Berniece] Boy Willie and the piano
1413
01:18:29,625 --> 01:18:30,916
and Sutter's ghost.
1414
01:18:32,166 --> 01:18:34,416
I thought I might've
just been seeing things, but...
1415
01:18:36,125 --> 01:18:37,832
Maretha done seen Sutter's ghost too.
1416
01:18:37,833 --> 01:18:39,040
When this happen, Berniece?
1417
01:18:39,041 --> 01:18:40,875
Right after I came home yesterday.
1418
01:18:42,625 --> 01:18:44,500
Maretha scared to sleep up there now.
1419
01:18:49,291 --> 01:18:53,750
Maybe... if you bless the house,
he'll go away.
1420
01:18:56,083 --> 01:18:58,083
Oh, I... I don't know, Berniece.
1421
01:18:59,583 --> 01:19:02,665
I don't know if I should be fooling around
with something like that now.
1422
01:19:02,666 --> 01:19:05,166
I can't have Maretha
scared to sleep up there.
1423
01:19:06,916 --> 01:19:09,290
Seem like you bless the house,
he would go away.
1424
01:19:09,291 --> 01:19:11,457
You might gotta be
a special kind of preacher
1425
01:19:11,458 --> 01:19:13,083
to do something like that.
1426
01:19:20,625 --> 01:19:22,125
I keep telling myself
1427
01:19:23,291 --> 01:19:26,041
when Boy Willie leave,
he'll go on and leave with him.
1428
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:32,499
I believe Boy Willie
pushed him in the well.
1429
01:19:32,500 --> 01:19:35,375
No, that's been going on down there
for a long time.
1430
01:19:36,166 --> 01:19:38,374
Ghosts of the Yellow Dog
been pushing people in they wells
1431
01:19:38,375 --> 01:19:40,165
long before Boy Willie got grown.
1432
01:19:40,166 --> 01:19:42,832
Somebody down there
pushing them people in they wells.
1433
01:19:42,833 --> 01:19:44,458
They ain't just upped and fell.
1434
01:19:47,125 --> 01:19:49,500
What Doaker say
about Boy Willie selling that piano?
1435
01:19:50,083 --> 01:19:53,666
Doaker don't want no part of that piano.
He ain't never wanted no part of it.
1436
01:19:55,458 --> 01:19:58,082
He washed his hands of that piano
a long time ago.
1437
01:19:58,083 --> 01:19:59,790
[piano playing softly]
1438
01:19:59,791 --> 01:20:01,540
He ain't want me to bring it up here,
1439
01:20:01,541 --> 01:20:04,666
but... I wasn't gonna leave it down there.
1440
01:20:06,500 --> 01:20:08,624
When my mama died,
I shut the top on that piano,
1441
01:20:08,625 --> 01:20:10,541
and I ain't never opened it since.
1442
01:20:11,833 --> 01:20:13,374
I was only playing it for her.
1443
01:20:13,375 --> 01:20:14,499
[Avery sniffles]
1444
01:20:14,500 --> 01:20:16,707
[uneasy music playing]
1445
01:20:16,708 --> 01:20:21,332
When my daddy died, seem like
all her life went into that piano.
1446
01:20:21,333 --> 01:20:23,416
[piano music playing]
1447
01:20:26,250 --> 01:20:28,125
[Berniece] She used to
have me playing on it.
1448
01:20:31,708 --> 01:20:35,582
Say when I played it,
she could hear my daddy talking to her.
1449
01:20:35,583 --> 01:20:40,415
[woman whispering] Berniece,
I cleaned it up for you. Play something.
1450
01:20:40,416 --> 01:20:44,665
[Berniece] I used to think them pictures
come alive and walk through the house.
1451
01:20:44,666 --> 01:20:45,791
[woman whispers] It's time.
1452
01:20:46,875 --> 01:20:48,583
[Berniece] Sometimes, late at night,
1453
01:20:49,666 --> 01:20:51,500
I could hear my mama talking to 'em.
1454
01:20:55,625 --> 01:20:57,541
I said that wasn't gonna happen to me.
1455
01:20:58,666 --> 01:21:01,916
I don't play on that piano
'cause I don't wanna wake them spirits.
1456
01:21:03,208 --> 01:21:06,250
They never... never be walking around
in this house.
1457
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:10,083
[Avery] You got to put all of that
behind you, Berniece.
1458
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:13,916
It's the same thing like Crawley.
1459
01:21:14,666 --> 01:21:17,125
Everybody got stones in their passway.
1460
01:21:19,583 --> 01:21:21,375
You could walk in there right now...
1461
01:21:23,083 --> 01:21:24,416
right now and play that piano.
1462
01:21:26,500 --> 01:21:28,457
You could walk over there right now,
1463
01:21:28,458 --> 01:21:31,583
and God is gonna walk over there
with you, Berniece.
1464
01:21:32,250 --> 01:21:35,291
You could set that sack of stones down
by the side of the road
1465
01:21:35,958 --> 01:21:37,290
and walk away from it.
1466
01:21:37,291 --> 01:21:38,499
Come on, Berniece.
1467
01:21:38,500 --> 01:21:41,915
Come on. Set it down
and walk away from it, Berniece.
1468
01:21:41,916 --> 01:21:46,957
Come on. Walk... walk over here and claim it
as an instrument of the Lord, Berniece.
1469
01:21:46,958 --> 01:21:50,250
You can walk over here right now
and make it into a celebration.
1470
01:21:51,833 --> 01:21:54,125
Avery, I done told you
I don't play on that piano.
1471
01:21:55,125 --> 01:21:56,082
Now or no other time.
1472
01:21:56,083 --> 01:21:59,291
The Bible say,
"The Lord is my refuge and my strength."
1473
01:22:00,458 --> 01:22:03,040
With the strength of God,
you can put the past behind you, Berniece.
1474
01:22:03,041 --> 01:22:05,625
With the strength of God,
you can do anything.
1475
01:22:06,958 --> 01:22:10,207
God don't ask you what you done.
God ask you what you gonna do.
1476
01:22:10,208 --> 01:22:13,916
And all you got to do
is walk over here right now and claim it.
1477
01:22:20,500 --> 01:22:21,541
Come on, Berniece.
1478
01:22:24,500 --> 01:22:25,333
Come on.
1479
01:22:27,041 --> 01:22:28,041
That's it.
1480
01:22:37,958 --> 01:22:38,916
Avery,
1481
01:22:39,875 --> 01:22:40,708
just...
1482
01:22:43,041 --> 01:22:44,083
go on
1483
01:22:45,875 --> 01:22:47,500
and let me finish my bath.
1484
01:22:51,291 --> 01:22:52,458
I'll see you tomorrow.
1485
01:22:57,083 --> 01:22:58,250
[Avery exhales sharply]
1486
01:22:59,875 --> 01:23:01,041
Okay, Berniece.
1487
01:23:04,333 --> 01:23:05,791
Okay, I'm gonna go home.
1488
01:23:07,500 --> 01:23:12,000
I... I'm gonna go home...
and I'm gonna read up on my Bible.
1489
01:23:13,125 --> 01:23:14,541
And tomorrow...
1490
01:23:18,916 --> 01:23:21,041
If the good Lord
give me strength tomorrow,
1491
01:23:22,416 --> 01:23:25,458
I'm gonna come by here,
and I'm gonna bless this house.
1492
01:23:27,916 --> 01:23:29,665
I'm gonna show you the power of the Lord.
1493
01:23:29,666 --> 01:23:31,625
[footsteps retreating]
1494
01:23:33,041 --> 01:23:34,958

01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:24,915
Telling Maretha you wish she was a boy.
How you think that make her feel?
1670
01:35:24,916 --> 01:35:27,207
Boy Willie, go on and leave me alone.
1671
01:35:27,208 --> 01:35:32,124
Why don't you leave her alone?
What you got to pick with her for?
1672
01:35:32,125 --> 01:35:35,124
Why don't you go on out here
and see what's out here in these streets?
1673
01:35:35,125 --> 01:35:38,290
- Have something to tell down home.
- I'm waiting on Lymon to get back.
1674
01:35:38,291 --> 01:35:40,540
Why don't you go out there
and see what's in the streets?
1675
01:35:40,541 --> 01:35:42,290
You ain't got to work tomorrow.
1676
01:35:42,291 --> 01:35:44,999
I gotta stay right here.
Make sure y'all don't kill one another.
1677
01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:49,165
You ought to be talking to Berniece.
Telling Maretha she wish she was a boy.
1678
01:35:49,166 --> 01:35:51,874
What kind of thing is that
to say to a child?
1679
01:35:51,875 --> 01:35:54,958
If you gonna tell her something,
tell her about that piano.
1680
01:35:55,916 --> 01:35:58,499
You ain't even told her.
Like that's something to be ashamed of.
1681
01:35:58,500 --> 01:36:00,040
Let me take care of my child.
1682
01:36:00,041 --> 01:36:02,332
When you get one,
you can teach it what you want.
1683
01:36:02,333 --> 01:36:04,333
Why I wanna bring a child into this world?
1684
01:36:04,833 --> 01:36:07,916
Why I wanna bring somebody else
into all this for?
1685
01:36:08,666 --> 01:36:09,916
I tell you this.
1686
01:36:11,583 --> 01:36:15,625
[scoffs] If I was Rockefeller,
I'd have 40 or 50.
1687
01:36:16,125 --> 01:36:17,290
I'd make one every day
1688
01:36:17,291 --> 01:36:20,333
'cause they gonna start out in life
with all the advantages.
1689
01:36:20,833 --> 01:36:22,790
I ain't got no advantages to offer nobody.
1690
01:36:22,791 --> 01:36:26,457
Many is the time I looked at my daddy,
seen him staring off at his hands.
1691
01:36:26,458 --> 01:36:28,415
I got older, I know what he was thinking.
1692
01:36:28,416 --> 01:36:29,790
He was sitting there saying,
1693
01:36:29,791 --> 01:36:33,291
"I got these big old hands,
but what I'm gonna do with 'em?"
1694
01:36:34,208 --> 01:36:36,874
"Got these big old hands
capable of doing anything."
1695
01:36:36,875 --> 01:36:39,249
"I could take and build something
with these hands,
1696
01:36:39,250 --> 01:36:41,332
but where's the tools?"
1697
01:36:41,333 --> 01:36:43,083
"All I got is these hands."
1698
01:36:44,041 --> 01:36:47,249
Now, if he had his own land, Berniece,
he wouldn't have felt that way.
1699
01:36:47,250 --> 01:36:48,832
If he had something...
1700
01:36:48,833 --> 01:36:51,665
If he had something under his feet
that belonged to him,
1701
01:36:51,666 --> 01:36:52,915
he could stand up taller.
1702
01:36:52,916 --> 01:36:54,500
That's what I'm talking about.
1703
01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:57,415
Ain't no mystery to life.
You go out and meet it square on.
1704
01:36:57,416 --> 01:36:59,832
If you teach that girl
that she living at the bottom of life,
1705
01:36:59,833 --> 01:37:00,874
she gonna hate you.
1706
01:37:00,875 --> 01:37:04,458
I'm gonna teach her the truth.
It's just where she living.
1707
01:37:05,083 --> 01:37:08,290
Only she ain't got to stay there.
Turn your head over to the other side.
1708
01:37:08,291 --> 01:37:10,582
That might be your bottom,
but it ain't mine.
1709
01:37:10,583 --> 01:37:12,082
I'm living at the top of life.
1710
01:37:12,083 --> 01:37:14,582
I ain't gonna take my life
and throw it away at the bottom.
1711
01:37:14,583 --> 01:37:16,124
I'm in the world like everybody else.
1712
01:37:16,125 --> 01:37:19,582
The way I see it, everybody else
gotta come up a little to be where I am.
1713
01:37:19,583 --> 01:37:21,540
You right at the bottom
with the rest of us.
1714
01:37:21,541 --> 01:37:23,665
[Boy Willie] If you believe that,
you'll act that way.
1715
01:37:23,666 --> 01:37:25,499
If you act that way,
that's where you'll be.
1716
01:37:25,500 --> 01:37:28,749
Doaker, Berniece say all colored folks
living at the bottom of life.
1717
01:37:28,750 --> 01:37:31,040
I tell her she think that,
that's where she gonna be.
1718
01:37:31,041 --> 01:37:33,832
You living at the bottom of life?
Is that how you see yourself?
1719
01:37:33,833 --> 01:37:37,790
I'm just living the best way I know how.
Ain't thinking about no top or no bottom.
1720
01:37:37,791 --> 01:37:39,790
[Boy Willie] That's what
I tried to tell Berniece.
1721
01:37:39,791 --> 01:37:43,832
I don't know where she got that from.
Sound like something Avery would say.
1722
01:37:43,833 --> 01:37:46,707
Avery think 'cause the white man
give him a turkey for Thanksgiving,
1723
01:37:46,708 --> 01:37:48,582
that make him better than everybody else.
1724
01:37:48,583 --> 01:37:50,499
That gonna raise him up
out the bottom of life.
1725
01:37:50,500 --> 01:37:53,915
I don't need nobody to give me a turkey.
I can get my own turkey.
1726
01:37:53,916 --> 01:37:57,707
All you got to do is get out of my way.
I'll get me two or three turkeys.
1727
01:37:57,708 --> 01:38:00,582
You can't even get a chicken,
let alone two or three turkeys.
1728
01:38:00,583 --> 01:38:03,165
Talking about get out your way.
Ain't nobody in your way.
1729
01:38:03,166 --> 01:38:04,874
Straighten your head up, Maretha.
1730
01:38:04,875 --> 01:38:07,333
Don't be bending down like that.
You hold your head up.
1731
01:38:09,125 --> 01:38:11,916
All you ever had going for you is talk.
1732
01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:15,500
Your whole life,
that's all you ever had going for you.
1733
01:38:24,333 --> 01:38:27,458
I'm gonna tell you something about me.
1734
01:38:29,208 --> 01:38:31,000
I was born to a time of fire.
1735
01:38:31,916 --> 01:38:34,791
The world ain't wanted no part of me,
and I could see that
1736
01:38:35,625 --> 01:38:38,375
ever since I was about... seven.
1737
01:38:39,583 --> 01:38:41,916
The world say it's better off without me.
1738
01:38:42,875 --> 01:38:44,791
See, Berniece accept that.
1739
01:38:45,375 --> 01:38:47,624
She trying to prove something
to the world.
1740
01:38:47,625 --> 01:38:51,332
The world a better place 'cause of me.
I don't see it like Berniece.
1741
01:38:51,333 --> 01:38:54,707
I got a heart that beats.
It beats just as loud as the next fella's.
1742
01:38:54,708 --> 01:38:57,291
Don't care if he Black or white.
1743
01:38:59,750 --> 01:39:01,250
Sometimes it beats louder.
1744
01:39:02,333 --> 01:39:05,040
And when it beats louder,
then everybody can hear it.
1745
01:39:05,041 --> 01:39:07,582
Some people get scared of that.
Like Berniece.
1746
01:39:07,583 --> 01:39:10,416
Some people get scared
to hear a nigger's heart beating.
1747
01:39:13,250 --> 01:39:15,208
But my mama ain't birth me for nothing.
1748
01:39:16,958 --> 01:39:18,208
So what I got to do?
1749
01:39:20,791 --> 01:39:25,000
Gotta make my mark along the road,
like when... when you write on a tree.
1750
01:39:27,583 --> 01:39:28,833
"Boy Willie was here."
1751
01:39:32,541 --> 01:39:34,583
That's all I'm trying to do
with that piano.
1752
01:39:36,125 --> 01:39:40,541
Trying to make my mark along the road
like... like my daddy done.
1753
01:39:44,375 --> 01:39:47,082
Other than that, I ain't thinking
about nothing Berniece got to say.
1754
01:39:47,083 --> 01:39:48,333
[knocking at door]
1755
01:39:52,791 --> 01:39:54,500
[Boy Willie] Where you been, nigger?
1756
01:39:55,375 --> 01:39:56,541
Oh, I thought you was Lymon.
1757
01:39:58,750 --> 01:40:02,415
- Hey, Berniece, look who's here.
- [Doaker] Come on in, Avery. Have a seat.
1758
01:40:02,416 --> 01:40:05,041
Don't pay neither of them no mind.
They been fussing all day.
1759
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:08,083
[Berniece] Here, set that comb back
over on that stove.
1760
01:40:08,708 --> 01:40:11,624
[Doaker] Berniece said you was coming by
to bless the house.
1761
01:40:11,625 --> 01:40:13,625
[Avery] Yeah, I done read up on my Bible.
1762
01:40:14,125 --> 01:40:16,624
She asked me to see about
getting rid of Sutter's ghost.
1763
01:40:16,625 --> 01:40:19,790
Ain't no ghost in this house.
That's all in Berniece's head.
1764
01:40:19,791 --> 01:40:21,082
[Doaker] Let her find that out.
1765
01:40:21,083 --> 01:40:24,332
If blessing the house gonna make her
feel better, what it got to do with you?
1766
01:40:24,333 --> 01:40:26,125
Berniece say Maretha seen him too.
1767
01:40:27,250 --> 01:40:30,249
I don't know, but I found
a part in the Bible to bless this house.
1768
01:40:30,250 --> 01:40:32,207
If he here,
then that ought to make him go away.
1769
01:40:32,208 --> 01:40:34,332
You worse than Berniece
believing that stuff.
1770
01:40:34,333 --> 01:40:37,124
Talking about if he here.
Go on up there and find out.
1771
01:40:37,125 --> 01:40:39,083
I've been up there, and I ain't seen him.
1772
01:40:39,791 --> 01:40:43,707
If you say that Bible will make the man
leave her imagination, you might be right.
1773
01:40:43,708 --> 01:40:45,832
- But if--
- Boy Willie, why don't you be quiet?
1774
01:40:45,833 --> 01:40:48,374
Getting in the man's business.
This got nothing to do with you.
1775
01:40:48,375 --> 01:40:49,707
Let him do what he gonna do.
1776
01:40:49,708 --> 01:40:52,458
I ain't stopping him.
Avery ain't got power to do nothing.
1777
01:40:53,125 --> 01:40:55,666
[Avery] I ain't got no power, Boy Willie.
God got the power.
1778
01:40:56,333 --> 01:40:58,207
God got power
over everything in his creation.
1779
01:40:58,208 --> 01:41:01,791
God can do anything. God say,
"As I commandeth, so shall it be."
1780
01:41:02,375 --> 01:41:05,125
God said, "Let there be light,"
and there was light.
1781
01:41:05,625 --> 01:41:08,165
He made the world in six days,
and he rested on the seventh.
1782
01:41:08,166 --> 01:41:11,082
God's got a wonderful power.
God got power over life and death.
1783
01:41:11,083 --> 01:41:13,457
I ain't afraid of him chasing away
no little old ghost.
1784
01:41:13,458 --> 01:41:15,166
[knocking at door]
1785
01:41:17,375 --> 01:41:18,541
[knocking at door]
1786
01:41:19,125 --> 01:41:21,832
Where you been? I been waiting on you.
You run off somewhere.
1787
01:41:21,833 --> 01:41:24,124
I ran into Grace.
1788
01:41:24,125 --> 01:41:26,208
[Boy Willie] I ain't thinking about
no Grace nothing.
1789
01:41:30,833 --> 01:41:32,083
Hi, Berniece.
1790
01:41:33,791 --> 01:41:36,124
Lymon, give me that rope,
get on the other side of the piano.
1791
01:41:36,125 --> 01:41:38,915
Now, Boy Willie, don't start nothing now.
1792
01:41:38,916 --> 01:41:40,790
Leave that piano alone.
1793
01:41:40,791 --> 01:41:44,000
[Boy Willie] Watch that board, Lymon.
Stay out of this, Doaker.
1794
01:41:44,541 --> 01:41:47,790
[Doaker] You can't just take the piano.
How you gonna just take the piano?
1795
01:41:47,791 --> 01:41:50,457
Berniece ain't said nothing
about selling that piano.
1796
01:41:50,458 --> 01:41:53,749
She ain't got to. Come on, Lymon.
We got to lift one end at a time.
1797
01:41:53,750 --> 01:41:56,915
- What we gonna do with the rope?
- [Boy Willie] Just get on the other side.
1798
01:41:56,916 --> 01:41:58,333
Boy Willie-- Berniece.
1799
01:41:58,958 --> 01:42:01,499
[Lymon] Boy Willie,
you sure you wanna do this?
1800
01:42:01,500 --> 01:42:04,957
Oh, Berniece, Boy Willie,
y'all ought to sit down and talk this out.
1801
01:42:04,958 --> 01:42:06,250
Ain't nothing to talk out.
1802
01:42:08,666 --> 01:42:10,250
I'm through talking to Berniece.
1803
01:42:10,833 --> 01:42:12,040
Come on, Lymon.
1804
01:42:12,041 --> 01:42:13,874
Maretha, get on out the way.
1805
01:42:13,875 --> 01:42:15,415
Get her out the way, Doaker!
1806
01:42:15,416 --> 01:42:18,041
[Doaker] Come on. Come on.
Go and do like your mama said.
1807
01:42:18,541 --> 01:42:20,582
[door opens, closes]
1808
01:42:20,583 --> 01:42:23,541
Man, these niggers round here!
1809
01:42:24,416 --> 01:42:26,749
I stopped down there at Seefus.
1810
01:42:26,750 --> 01:42:30,165
These folks jumping back
and getting off the sidewalk
1811
01:42:30,166 --> 01:42:32,791
talking about a Patchneck Red's coming.
1812
01:42:33,708 --> 01:42:35,083
Come to find out,
1813
01:42:35,958 --> 01:42:38,208
you know who they was talking about?
1814
01:42:40,083 --> 01:42:43,083
Old John D. from up around Tyler.
1815
01:42:43,875 --> 01:42:47,916
He got everybody scared of him.
Calling him Patchneck Red.
1816
01:42:48,666 --> 01:42:52,874
They don't know
I whupped the nigger's head in one time.
1817
01:42:52,875 --> 01:42:54,957
[Boy Willie] Make sure
that board don't slide, Lymon.
1818
01:42:54,958 --> 01:42:56,624
Hey, Boy Willie, what you got?
1819
01:42:56,625 --> 01:42:58,749
I know you got a pint
stuck up in your coat.
1820
01:42:58,750 --> 01:43:00,374
Get out the way, Wining Boy.
1821
01:43:00,375 --> 01:43:02,707
Hey, Doaker, what you got?
Give me a drink. I want a drink.
1822
01:43:02,708 --> 01:43:05,332
It look like you done had enough
of whatever it was.
1823
01:43:05,333 --> 01:43:08,082
Talking about "What you got?"
Find somewhere to lay down.
1824
01:43:08,083 --> 01:43:10,332
I ain't worried
about no place to lie down.
1825
01:43:10,333 --> 01:43:13,707
I can always find me a place to lay down
in Berniece's house.
1826

You know Berniece don't like
all that drinking.

I wanted your company, not your whiskey.
1838
01:43:48,208 --> 01:43:51,040
[Doaker] Go upstairs and lay down.
You don't need nothing else to drink.
