Maurice Grossbaum,
a surgeon from Indiana.
Sam Drebben,
machine-gunner from the Bronx.
Gen. ngeles came over from the Federales.
Studied von Clausewitz,
well-read, an idealist.
He's the other side of the peso
to Gen. Fierro.
He gets really ugly unless he kills
at least one prisoner before breakfast.
From the merely curious
to the merely morbid.
All of this on Villa's order.
All of this in Villa's thrall.
You take home a nice recuerdo,
verdad, amigo? A souvenir.
But be careful...
should they give you some crawly souvenir
in your underwear.
Her husband got killed in the fighting today.
And her youngest son, too.
Get this.
He just gave her more money
than her old man saw in his entire life.
What will they think, my American friends...
when they see the movie of Pancho Villa?
I think Mr. Doheny
is gonna be very impressed indeed.
He worships the ground that is Mexico.
Doheny worships what's underneath it.
Your Seor Hearst
is also muy nervioso. Sintense.
Very nervous.
You know how much
he owns of Mexico, Francisco?
Seor Hearst. You know how many acres?
More like 8 million.
How many head of cattle
have you stolen from him? 60,000, he says.
You are loco, Juanito. 60,000.
So, Francisco, today was not too...
- Boring.
- Boring. It was not too boring?
You became more a man a little,
I think, today.
- Maybe you and your amigos...
- Yeah, I'd say we had a good start.
Today I think they found,
Even though a few of them got a little wet.
Yes.
You will help.
You'll help Americans know
that hope does not stop at the border.
It's my Virgin of Guadalupe.
I'm deeply honored, sir.
He says you should be.
You've got the only virgin left around here.
Please bear in mind
that our camera operators...
had to constantly deal
with movement of men and horses...
exploding bombs, clouds of gunpowder.
But what you're looking at is,
without a doubt...
never-before-seen footage of live action
shot on an actual field of battle.
Never-before-seen footage?
You still can't see it.
They'd have bit the dust a lot better
if D.W. Griffith had directed it.
Let me assure you that every one
of these men and women, and every child...
died in the very best way that they could.
There he is, boys, on motion-picture film
for all the world to see:
Gen. Pancho Villa.
Despite its technical flaws...
clearly more people
would discover Pancho Villa...
from a few feet of this crude, historic film...
than from the reams that are written
about his struggle...
to rid Mexico of its greedy robber barons...
the only ones to profit
from their cozy marriage...
