Mmm-hmm.
Oui, oui.
Hmm.
Bonjour, Monsieur Manzon.
Oui.
Allo.
Monsieur Manzon.
Pull up easy.
The temperature in Newark is 54 degrees.
In Morristown it's 57.
And in Asbury Park...
Hey, Phil, how are you?
St Dominic's, $2,712.
St Michael's, $983.
Bill, what do you have on St Bartholomew?
- 58. - 5,800?
George, what about Loyola?
All right, all you humps, up against the wall.
- What? What is this? - Move!
What is this? What's going on?
My dear friends, you have come together in this church.
The Lord may seal and strengthen your love in the presence
of the church's minister and this community.
Christ abundantly blesses you with love.
Oh, my God.
Get the money.
What are you doing here?
You know whose parish this is?
Up you and the horse you rode in on.
May daily problems never cause you anxiety,
nor desire for earthly possessions dominate your lives.
May you find happiness and satisfaction in your work...
That's it, now, just... Just kiss that pipe, boys.
Oh, my God! No!
Shut up, you zip.
You have declared your consent before the church.
May the Lord, in his goodness,
strengthen your consent and fill you with his blessings.
What God has joined, man must not divide.
Leave the change alone.
- George, don't try to move. - Beautiful.
May Almighty God bless you, the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ, his only son. Conceived by the Holy Spirit...
Call my brother. We've been hit.
Son of a bitch.
Don't get us glommed over here, huh?
No way.
We've already got a driver in the car.
Keep it up.
Don't press me, pal.
Couldn't you have stopped him without doing that?
Shut your mouth before you get it.
What do you mean?
Just what I'm telling you, hard-on.
If you shoot a priest for $67,000, how much is my life worth?
A zero. You're a piece of shit.
- You bastard. - What the fuck are you doing?
He's gone.
Don't move him. You just better leave him till the cops get here.
Hey, Mickey! Over here!
What's the latest on your brother, Mr Ricci?
- He's gonna be all right. - Ah, that's fine. Thank God.
One of those pigs walked away from that accident.
The guy's name is Jackie Scanlon.
He's a punk from Queens, with the Donnelly mob.
A real piece of shit.
Mr Ricci, everybody wants to help you out on this.
The guy can't make a move.
Can't go nowheres.
He could be on his way to the moon by now.
We'll get you the best.
But it's gonna have to come from the outside.
And it's gonna cost.
He robbed my church.
Shot my brother.
I don't care where he is or what it costs.
I want his ass.
- You've got a problem. - Tell me about it.
- You're on the hit parade. - What?
That priest you whacked. He was Carlo Ricci's brother.
Forget the heat. Ricci himself is out looking for you.
You know I never carry a pistol.
Would you like to tell him that in person?
- Got any money? - 2,000.
- How about a passport? - What for?
The 2,000. That's your passport.
You mean out of the country?
Uh-huh.
Where?
All I can say, it's a good place to stay low.
Why?
It's the sort of place nobody wants to go looking.
- It's covered, okay? - Yeah, it's okay, where am I going?
Get a train down to Baltimore.
Go to Pier 47 and at customs ask for Nat Glick.
And don't mention my name.
'Cause as of right now, I don't know you,
and I don't wanna know you.
I owed you a favour. This is it.
You gonna tell me where I'm going?
I swear to Christ, I don't know.
Julio Ramirez.
Serrano.
Marquez.
- I'm in transit. - Que'?
Trans/to, me. I'm going to Managua.
Ah, Managua. Si.
Trénsito.
- Can I get something to drink? - Pasaporte.
In the plane, with my baggage.
I'm very thirsty.
Forget it, pal.
You stop eating and a year's pay might get you a seat to the next rat hole.
Come on.
I have three rooms. One of them is taken.
Agrippa!
I'll take it.
- For how long? - Let's say a week.
How much does it cost from here to Argentina?
An airline ticket costs 470 pesos.
Passports, maybe another 1,000.
I have less than 100.
Everything I could save in a year.
My house, maybe cost 600.
If I could sell it.
Comprende Inglés?
Yes, I speak some.
- You wanna travel away? - Yes.
I can fix for you la capital.
I want to go out of this country.
Out of this country? Dificil.
Very difficult.
Impossible?
No, es posible.
Costoso. Comprende?
Cost much.
Comprendo.
I can fix for you to go out from the country.
This reloj plus 1,000 pesos.
I have only the watch.
Ein Whisky.
Danke schon.
Put it on my account.
Thank you.
- You're in the workers' hotel? - Yeah.
- I like the southern exposure. - Yes.
I thought about it myself.
Hmm.
I understand you used to be in banking.
That's the rumour.
Mmm-hmm.
I had no idea I was the subject of rumours.
Carlos here used to be an ex-Reichsmarschall.
Right, Carlos?
What is your profession, Mr...
- Dominguez. - Dominguez.
Ice hockey.
Read about this place in a travel brochure?
I heard it had a healthy climate.
Not what you expected.
It was exactly what I expected.
Juan Dominguez?
Aren't you the labourer Juan Dominguez?
No comprende.
No.
You don't understand, huh?
Let's see your identity card.
Como?
The identity card you keep here.
Juan Dominguez,
born November 1939 in Las Columnas.
In this country.
That is you?
You don't look to me like you were born in Las Columnas.
Porque?
Because you don't even speak Spanish.
And because you are a filthy, gringo asshole.
This is false.
It is a violation of the immigration laws.
Hey!
You have more?
That's it.
Okay, next time you pay.
You make three,
we take one.
Understand?
Comprendo.
Okay.
I need my card.
I can't make shit without my card. I need...
Tarjeta...
Adios, Senor Dominguez.
I think it should produce twice as much as this last one that we just come out of.
When can you get this one finished off?
Well, we've got our fleet trucks,
and perforating trucks have already been ordered. Should be here...
Very professional.
Well, get it to the capital, maybe we'll get some results.
The government's been told it's an accident.
What?
Charles, in this country terrorists who blow up American oil wells are heroes.
We're paying that government to give us protection.
El Presidente cannot risk his liberal image
by sending his troops to chase patriots.
Shit.
This is a telex from home responding to my report.
The first part just concerns regret, loss of life, etcetera, etcetera,
injuries and so on, and apparently we have no insurance position
because of the sabotage thing.
Anyway, this is the part that concerns you.
"Limitations on production in recent months
"due to acts of terrorism and political uncertainties.
"Emphasise attention, immediate supply obligations
"with minimum concern R and D."
- What the hell is R and D? - Research and development.
"Please advise course of action soonest."
And it's signed, Webber.
- Is that it? - Yes.
What are the immediate supply obligations?
One tanker. 160,000 barrels by the end of next month.
We need that well to fill it.
They'll have to delay it.
Can't.
The charter's running.
If we have to take a loss that big, we might as well shut down now,
save expenses.
I've seen worse.
Let's clear away all that junk and blow her out.
This stuff is too dry to fart.
That stuff has been sitting the better part of a year. It's worthless.
What do you mean?
When it sits for a long time without being turned,
that liquid nitro seeps out of the sticks and into the bag.
If you give those cases any kind of a bump, it'll blow.
It's risky moving one of those cases 10 feet.
That fire's over 200 miles away.
If it were up there, could you use it?
I suppose we could boom-load a little bit at a time, yes.
- How the hell are you gonna get it up? - It's not your problem.
We'll get it up there.
Well, what do you think?
Major problem is the vibration.
This thing is like a damned eggbeater.
No matter how we shock-mount something,
it will still have a severe lateral vibration.
I thought maybe you could swing-load it on a pallet.
About 20 feet down, there'd be no vibration,
but the problem's the turbulence.
We might move it half a mile that way, but not 200.
I've never had a flight around here without some turbulence in it.
What are you saying, Billy?
Not with a chopper. There's no way.
I'll double the amount if you can think of a way.
It's not the money, Mr Corlette.
Nobody's going to get into a chopper with that shit.
You need a suicide jockey.
We now need experienced truck drivers.
Men who are willing to do a dangerous job.
This job must be done before we can reopen our gates
and bring back full employment to you people.
The men who qualify,
they will receive exceptional wages.
Only experienced truck drivers willing to risk their life can do it.
No one else should apply.
The company will pay 8,000 pesos to each driver.
Four men with enough guts
can save Poza Rica and your village.
- Stop at the bottom of the hill. - I need to know the machine.
Pull over.
You crazy bastard!
Teamster?
Greyhound.
Vamos.
Serrano.
Dominguez.
Marquez.
Martinez.
We're carrying three cases each.
One is enough to blow your fire. Six cases will blow out the whole field.
That means you don't think all the trucks will make it.
One of us is a backup.
We want double and legal residence
or we don't drive.
You leave in four hours.
Only one machete?
How many would you like?
We might have to put half the jungle
underneath our wheels to get through the mud.
There should be two.
Tape, wire, plugs, channel locks, rags.
Where's the rest of this cable?
It's over there in the corner.
Where the hell is the German?
She's got something for you.
What is it?
Marquez!
Murderer!
Zionist! I'll kill you!
What happened? What happened?
This Jew dog cut his throat!
No police.
Hold it! You just lost a driver. We need another one.
When the money's up, I'm as good as any of you.
Where are you from?
Listen, Pancho, I've been clocking you every second
since you got into this town.
You're gonna pick your nose in this truck,
you better clear it with me first.
If you don't, I'm taking you and this nitro right into a ditch.
They've had 15 minutes.
Yes.
One moment.
I have a letter.
I wonder if you would post it for me.
Paris.
That could take a month.
Yes. Just keep it for me.
I'll take care of it.
Get out of there!
Whoo!
Get the hell out of there!
I guide you.
You drive, and I guide you. Okay?
Get in the truck.
- Come on! - No!
Come on!
Okay.
Is this the road to Poza Rica, sf?
Esta loco.
That's the wrong road.
I think this road's better for us, because it's higher.
We take this one.
No, you don't understand. This... This road is too low,
it goes through the swamp.
There's too much mud.
Can't you read a map? We have no information on that road.
You're full of shit! You take that road.
We follow the map.
It's the wrong road.
This is the wrong road!
Where the hell are you going?
We are going to cross that bridge
and you're going to guide me.
Because I can't do it alone.
They've had it.
We're sitting on double shares!
20,000. 20,000 apiece!
No way they're going to make that bridge,
I'll tell you that.
That's 20,000 apiece.
We're sitting on 20,000.
Double shares.
Come on!
Hold on!
Stop! Stop!
Come on.
Stop, stop, stop!
Stay close.
Kassem!
Where are you?
Stop!
I don't see you.
Stop!
No!
Stop!
Stop! Stop!
No!
Are you all right?
The winch!
Get the winch!
Come on!
Come!
Come! Come!
Come!
Come! Come! Come on!
Come! Come!
Come!
Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on!
You're crazy.
It's eight trees.
No way.
Start chopping-
Make your move.
Caoba.
Excellent wood.
We're gonna go around it.
If we can hack out eight trees.
If you cut them down, how do you move them?
A winch.
How you gonna clear the stumps?
How you gonna drive through a swamp?
We're going to go through it.
Impossible.
Impossible?
I think I can clear it.
Too small.
Show me your pockets.
Perfect.
Are you from Paris?
I lived there, yes.
Where?
Seiziéme Arrondissement. Do you know Paris?
I was there for two days.
Very expensive.
So they say.
Your family is there?
My wife. Just my wife.
No children?
No children.
I met my wife
when I first came to Paris from Bretagne.
The day she gave me this
was the last day I saw her.
It's five minutes before 9:00 in Paris.
Dominguez.
Get down.
Get down, on the ground.
What do you have in the truck?
Supplies.
For what, supplies?
Vienna sausage,
Wonder Bread,
Northern Tissue.
Kleenex.
Nothing else?
Okay, so you got just what we need.
You don't have to be afraid from us.
Listen, amigo. Just come out. We just need this truck.
We need food, you know?
And toilet paper.
What are you going to do with all that money, you hump?
Talk to me. What are you gonna do?
Get laid.
Best whore in Managua.
Two whores.
Two best whores in Managua.
You do it, kid.
Do it for me.
- With you, Pancho. - You do it for me.
- Okay? - I'll do it.
What do you mean you don't know?
Get a train down to Baltimore. Go to Pier 47.
Where am I going?
Where am I going? Where am I going?
What do you mean, you don't know?
- It's good. - No good to me.
What do I do with this, take it into a bank,
flash an ID and give them a thumbprint?
Our deal was cash.
Our head office is sending a man by the name of Gus Lefferts
to meet you at the plane.
He'll take you to our bank. You'll have that cash before suppertime.
You might ask Lefferts when you see him what's available at the capital.
I told him you were a first-rate driver.
Not any more.
If you find anything that's good, send me a postcard. Maybe I'll join you.
You mean you'd give all this up?
In six months' time, who knows? I might have no choice.
Carlos...
You know, there, uh, there's one place down here
that might be kind of nice for a guy in your situation.
You ever think of going to Managua?
Managua?
Shit, there's no way I can go to Managua.
Too bad. It's a nice place.
No.
Managua's no good for me.
Carlos...
Oh, by the way, when you get into Benau, would you mail that for me?
Can I have a couple of minutes?
For you, they'll hold the plane.
May I have this dance?
