just the cattle.

I'll take care of the men.

We've covered quite

a few miles, Miss Cleo.

Oh, I'm used to that.

Only on the dance fioor,

it was my feet that hurt.

I guess you've seen

about all the ranch now,

except the oil feld.

Oh, I was over

there yesterday.

Yeah? Everything suit ya?

Mmm. Especially

that good-looking boss.

You mean Carrington,

the Englishman.

Is that what he is?

Kind of thought that

body looked imported.

You give him

good ride today.

Yesterday, no good.

Ug.

Nice animal.

That's Cactus, the fastest

horse in the west. Buck was

going to race him this winter.

just a little gun shy,

Miss Cleo.

Ride him with a frecracker,

and he'd beat Man O' War.

Oh, yeah?

Hey, didn't I tell you fellas

not to shoot guns...

in front of that horse?

It'd be all right

if they wouldn't scare him.

After he knows you better,

he'll follow you around

like a dog.

Well, I hope he don't

take a notion and

jump up in my lap.

Sorry not to bring

Mr. Carrington back with me.

He couldn't come.

You mean he refused?

Well, uh, no,

not exactly that.

He objected to coming

while he was working

on the oil wells.

Oh, well,

I'll remove those.

The oil wells?

No, the objections.

I want you to pay

particular attention to this.

You know, I'm leaving

in a few days, and you'll

have to carry on without me.

Where is the company

sending you now,

to Siberia?

No, just Buenos Aires.

If these gushers come in

the way we hope,

Gonzales's heiress will be

one of the richest women

in the world.

I don't suppose she'd know

what to do with it.

Do you know her?

Seen her, heard her.

Impressed?

I'm afraid she's

rather crude oil.

(Metal Clanging)

Get a good

chisel edge on it.

Get it right out to gauge.

Hey, handsome!

The lady's calling you.

Yes, I heard her.

She wants to talk to you.

Sorry, I'm too busy.

He's too busy.

Oh, he wants to be coaxed.

Uh, uh, no...

I know what I'm doing.

(Gunshot)

Look here. What do you

mean by shooting at me?

I don't happen to be

a target, you know, not even

for somebody like you.

Ooh, what do you

know about me?

just what I see,

and that's quite suffcient.

Well, you're easily satisfed.

Well, what do

you want with me?

Nothing yet.

You possess

an extraordinary

sense of humor.

Yes, and that ain't all.

Well, I'm afraid you'll

have to excuse me.

I'm rather busy for this

sort of chitchat.

Oh, English, huh?

Yes. Do you mind?

(English Accent)

No, I rather like it.

Give me room, boys.

Put that ten-inch bit

into the furnace.

(Laughing)

Chitchat.

(Laughing)

You know, I like that guy.

You can hardly hope to win

a man, treating him that way.

Oh, yeah?

Say, listen. As long as

Mae West

Mary Jane "Mae" West (August 17, 1893 – November 22, 1980) was an American actress, singer, playwright, screenwriter, comedian, and sex symbol whose entertainment career spanned seven decades, known for her lighthearted bawdy double entendres and breezy sexual independence. West was active in vaudeville and on the stage in New York City before moving to Hollywood to become a comedian, actress and writer in the motion picture industry, as well as appearing on radio and television. The American Film Institute named her 15th among the greatest female stars of classic American cinema. Often using a husky contralto voice, West was one of the more controversial movie stars of her day and encountered many problems, especially censorship. She bucked the system, making comedy out of conventional mores, and the Depression-era audience admired her for it. When her cinematic career ended, she wrote books and plays and continued to perform in Las Vegas, in the United Kingdom, on radio and television and to record rock and roll albums. She was once asked about the various efforts to impede her career, to which she replied: "I believe in censorship. I made a fortune out of it." more…
