Bandidas Page #3

Synopsis: In 1848, a New York bank wants to put a railroad across Mexico, so it buys up small banks around Santa Rita, Durango, and evicts farmers on the proposed rail line who owe money. The bank's henchman is the murderous Jackson. He runs afoul of two women, María, the tough but uneducated daughter of a farmer, and Sara, the European-educated daughter of the owner of one of these banks. To feed the now landless people and to seek revenge, María and Sara become bank robbers, veritable Robin Hoods. But Jackson and his hired guns are after them. What are the women's options?

Yes.

Absolutely.

I understand.

You take all the time you need.

Don't worry about a thing.

I'll make all the arrangements.

Oh, darling?

Would you like your afternoon tea...

...sent up to your room?

That would be very nice. Thank you.

-Hey. Hey.

-Get back here.

Come back here, you b*tch.

-Come back.

-Hey. Come here.

I got you now.

Goddamn it.

-Padre.

-Maria?

They shot him.

I know, my child. I know.

What do you want from me, huh?

I have nothing to give you. Nothing.

You should have eaten

while you had the chance.

Get out of here. Shoo.

Hands up.

No one--

Move.

What are you doing?

What do you think I'm doing?

I'm taking this bank.

-With an unloaded gun?

-How do you know?

When a gun doesn't have any bullets--

Doesn't matter.

This bank is taken. Find another one.

This is the only bank in town.

Besides, it's my father's.

And take that raggedy mask off.

It doesn't even match.

Everyone knows who you are.

Your mask isn't silly?

People won't recognize that voice?

-"This is my father's bank."

-It is my father's.

Get out of my way.

I need to finish my job.

-Seoritas?

-I would hardly call stealing a job.

Seoritas?

I am not stealing.

I am taking it back from the bastards

who murdered my father.

-They killed Don Diego?

-Seoritas.

What?

The first order of business

is that we're gonna secure...

...and then remove all the deposits.

And then we're gonna instill

some renewed confidence in it.

I'd like to see the Stars and Stripes

flying over this place...

...so things start to look

a little more American down here.

Seor Manager?

This establishment is now

a wholly-owned subsidiary...

...of the Capital Bank and Trust

of New York.

What do you say we open the vault?

Take a look, and see what kind of cash

is on hand in the liquid-assets department.

Excuse me. Where is the vault?

In Don Diego's office.

Well, I guess that would be Seor Jackson's

office now, wouldn't it?

We did it. We did it.

We did it. We did it.

-We did it.

-And what is it that you think you did?

Look. We're gonna help a lot of people.

To really help...

...you'd have to reverse the massive theft

of property that has taken place.

Listen, do you know how many

kilos of rice we can buy with this?

We can feed 500 people.

Why were you robbing the bank?

Revenge.

Not to help the people?

No.

What?

Stop looking at me that way,

both of you.

My life is not here.

-What are you doing?

-What does it look like?

Taking the money.

I'm going back to Europe.

You're joking.

All right, you can take half. I don't care.

You can even keep the dog as a bonus.

If you want to go, go.

But the money stays. All of it.

-No, it doesn't.
