It mean, ah... It mean she virgin.
I have no reason to doubt it.
Virgin take any husband she want
but not you, Anglais.
Oh!
Get away, you horrible old hag.
They say you kill two Shoshone.
C'est vrais? Is true?
And I took these horses!
Ah! And scalps! Scalps!
Whoo-hoo!
Big chance!
La chance!
-I can't hear you! -Horses! Scalps!
Wife! Now-- wife! Then-- warrior!
Then soon-- Chief!
The wife sounds good right now.
Let's get straight to her!
Oui, oui, oui, oui!
And then war party, and then we go!
Oui, oui! We go!
Yoo-hoo!
We go!
We go, we go, we go!
No, no. Do not look mother in face-- taboo, or you be 'cinksi'.
Cinksi?
''Son,'' yes. You'll be her son till she die.
Oh. That suits me perfectly.
-Horses. -Hmm?
Horses!
Does that mean we're married?
Not yet, not yet.
What the hell's going on now?
Saying ''No scars, no vows.''
Scars, vows?
Yes, scars, vow to sun.
Say you make vow to sun, then he vow you brother.
But I just bought her.
I just bought her, didn't I?
What the hell did I do?
Marriage is good.
But, uh, must be made sacred first.
Sun Vow.
If no pain, nothing good is born.
Even seed burst to make grass.
Now, make vow for courage.
I vow to prove my courage...
to withstand all tests of pain.
You stand in sun all day, all night...
until sun come again...
then suffer much pain.
God watch you now.
Now you ready for Sun Vow in... holy lodge.
Hope for courage.
Pray Wakantanka let you live.
I will live, Batise.
Oh, yes, and after we get war party.
And England we go.
England?
Wherever you go, I serve you.
I serve you well, oui?
Oui, Batise.
You have served me well.
When do I kiss the bride?
You prove you man in Sun Vow, and then she kiss...
Oh!
She kiss plenty... in white teepee women make for you.
-That one? -Mm-hmm.
She must make pure in sweat bath.
Sweat bath?
Yes. Indian way.
She sweat, sing, pray, make pure.
Medicine man pray to Wakantanka,
that no bad things come for she and you.
And then you have... peace... and love.
Chief... Chief want me, too ... need my tongue.
He speak about Shoshone.
Counted 'coup' scalps-- big medicine.
Oh, c'est bon, c'est bon.
Must show God you brave.
Must prove courage.
Now, you say why you should be permitted to make Sun Vow.
Yellow Hand...
when you first brought me here...
you said I was a horse... an animal!
And to me, you were-- all of you-- mean...
vicious...
...ignorant, superstitious...
-No, no. -...ugly, benighted savages.
No...
-No! -Repeat it.
No.
Repeat it!
Repeat it.
Accurately.
To me, you are no different
from men all over the world.
When your stomachs are full and you sleep the long night,
you know you must hunt again
for food.
And when you fight your enemies
and their arrows pierce your skins,
you bleed like all men.
But it seems to me that you only live to hunt your buffalo...
to fight the Shoshone...
and to have your women.
I know you would say to me, ''What else is there?''
Yellow Hand say your words good.
But, Medicine man say your words not good.
Now, tell them this--
one day I will be a chief.
One day, I will be a chief!
Say, what proof you brave?
Suffer pain, yes.
Give up, now. Out.
He said because you white, you weak, you give up.
Shame before Wakantanka.
Oh...
Medicine bag, bones, beads.
Good luck things. Great honor.
Jesus!
I am Tatankaska, spirit animal, buffalo, white.
Speak the truth in humility to all people.
Only then can you be a true man and free of your chains.
I want you. My hunger is real.
But freedom is what you mean to me.
When the chance comes, I shall go.
I know. I know.
Grouse.
What did you say?
Grouse.
It's a small bird, Batise.
I used to shoot it in England, a long time ago.
Hmm.
Batise!
What's the matter with Yellow Hand?
Yellow Hand take Bear Skin belt,
he swear to Wakantanka never to retreat in battle.
He now want brave death... to save his honor because
Black Eagle take Thorn Rose.
He was her first man.
Injun law. So...
that means Black Eagle can take Yellow Hand's woman
when he wants her.
If Yellow Hand complains, he's weak.
Ay. Only...
this may be good.
He die, you be made chief quicker.
Get war party, and we go.
Five years you've lived here
and you've learned nothing about these people!
All his death is to you,
is a means of escape.
Take her away from this.
Take her away from this!
Oh... you're making it very, very difficuIt for me,
Little Freedom.
Very, very difficult.
Free... Free...
Freedom?
Freedom.
You... are Little Freedom.
Freedom.
Mother?
Oh...
Little Freedom... now is the truth.
You are part of me.
When I go, you go.
Forever.
Lakota Lake, mountains...
Peace River, south...
Adirondack.
Medicine man say buffalo go after winter.
Village move.
This place bad medicine now.
Oh, 'malheurs'!
Move west.
Away from home.
You'd better finish that map, Batise.
He say something is wrong.
Go and get your weapons.
Dear God!
Get the weapons!
Shoshone Chief take Bear Belt!
Batise!
Get everyone to the Ceremonial Lodge
and get the bows and arrows!
Line them up there!
Face the Shoshone!
Form two lines!
One in front and one back here!
First line-- to their knees!
Second line remain standing!
First line fire only!
Fire!
Now we go! Anywhere...
Oh, no...
Hiya!
Little Freedom.
John!
Oh, my God...
you've got nobody left to provide for you.
You'll give everything you have away.
You'll scavenge for offal...
With winter coming, you won't last a month.
Son.
I will be your son.
Good-bye, Little Freedom.
Hiya! Hiya!
