00:00You know, there's enough work here to keep these men busy for years.
00:15It's good for the both of us, huh?
00:17Look at this.
00:18Shipped directly to our doorstep.
00:20Ellsworth Johnson is a lot more influential than I thought.
00:23Your father's convinced Bonanno ordered the hit on Benny.
00:25No! No!
00:26He wants me to find out whichever soldier did it and take him out.
00:30We're family, right?
00:31You may be the perfect patsy, but what am I supposed to, pop someone out of the blue?
00:34Yeah.
00:37You know I can't end the filibuster, Adam.
00:40It's impossible.
00:42There's a limit to what I can do as president.
00:45That motherfucking senator McCarran.
00:47Don't send me.
00:48I need you to persuade.
00:49You want me to play dirty?
00:51You want a honey trap?
00:53Isn't that a little bit hypocritical?
00:55Yes.
00:55Well, you got me by the short and curlies, Adam.
00:58I am getting that to a pass without stooping to blackmail.
01:02What's going on?
01:03I believe Brother Charles has it in his mind to kill you.
01:06Give that to over.
01:07Let him know how good a job you're doing protecting me.
01:10What'd you say, nigga?
01:14This thing could fuck up our arrangement.
01:15You get your guy to leave town, I'll handle my men.
01:18He ain't leaving.
01:20What?
01:20He said, ain't no way the guineas were going to run him out of Harlem.
01:24Come on.
01:26Send him over.
01:27Send him over.
01:28No!
01:29Please, no!
01:30No!
01:31No!
01:32No!
01:32No!
01:32Where are they?
01:45It's been 15 weeks since we've heard from these three brave young men.
01:49These freedom riders who came to Mississippi and disappeared after being arrested by the police.
01:57They rode in buses from all over.
02:04Black, white, Jew, Christian.
02:06To register black voters and show America that we can attain equality if we do it together.
02:15They faced harassment and danger.
02:23And some, it seems, paid the ultimate price at the hands of the Klan.
02:29Although nobody would have ever heard about this tragedy if it were just three black men went missing.
02:39But because two white boys were involved, the nation stood up and has taken notice.
02:46Even the FBI.
02:51That's all right.
02:54We'll take it.
02:56If it wakes this nation from its slumber.
03:00Let us pray.
03:05Lord, cover these boys in the pure white light of the Christ.
03:12Through your eternal love and compassion, travel them home safely to their families.
03:18Amen and amen.
03:19And as a parent of one of the three boys who are missing, I am making this plea to all parents everywhere.
03:29Particularly to the parents of Mississippi.
03:32I want to beg them to cooperate in every way possible in the search for these three boys.
03:38Two of those boys are from New York City.
03:40My wife helped organize and pay for the buses to send them down there.
03:44That was a suicide mission if I ever saw one.
03:46And those kids should have been armed with machine guns, not pamphlets.
03:51One thing's for sure.
03:53They're not alive.
03:54Bodies ain't lost either.
03:56The Klan know exactly where they are.
03:58But the Sheriff's Department is the Klan, so no one talks.
04:02Certainly not to the FBI.
04:04I could make them talk.
04:08Yeah, that you could.
04:10But your methods wouldn't be admissible in court.
04:12Fuck court.
04:14What we need is more of that street justice.
04:16Amen to that.
04:18On Highway 19, about 10.30 Sunday night, Schwerner, Goodman, and Cheney were pulled over for speeding by Deputy Sheriff Cecil Parmitter, reputed to be a Klan member.
04:27Nothing scares white people more than black people voting.
04:32Look at you.
04:33You remember what I said about the black gangster gaining political consciousness and that white America would fall to his knees?
04:41Indeed I do.
04:42Maybe you're getting political.
04:52Goddammit!
04:53America first!
04:54Make me want to grab my foot in the automatic.
04:56Pull up, let them happen.
04:58Yeah.
04:58They won't be happy till they see me hanging from the branches.
05:01I'm pushing product that's the product of my circumstance.
05:03They want to take me out the game of mine and taking tests.
05:06They violating me, not violence, that's the only answer.
05:08I might just catch a KKK, take the cracker for ranch.
05:11We want justice, dammit!
05:14Goddammit!
05:16Goddammit!
05:18America first!
05:19Goddammit!
05:20We want justice, dammit!
05:24Goddammit!
05:26We want justice, dammit!
05:28Goddammit!
05:28Open up my window again, open up my window again.
05:48I can end up calling my name.
05:51I can end up calling again.
05:53I swear to God, things ain't gon' change.
05:56I swear to God, things ain't gon' change.
05:59I keep a revolver with your name.
06:02I keep a revolver with your name.
06:04Just in case.
06:06Lay on my back watching the ceiling fan.
06:09I had a dream to touch a kilogram.
06:12Still at odds with the Irish mob.
06:14Rose waist down Malcolm X Boulevard.
06:16Lord, these d***s really out here praying on me.
06:19They got the 40 on me and they stand on me.
06:21There's no white mink like them Dutch shorts.
06:24Run the books and let me show you how the numbers look.
06:27You can't be lucky like you Luciano.
06:30Big kilos coming like they do pianos.
06:33The fat boy got the big body.
06:36Coast to coast, I can shoot product.
06:38Open up my window again.
06:41Open up my window again.
06:44I can end up calling my name.
06:46I can end up calling again.
06:48I swear to God, things ain't gon' change.
06:51I swear to God, things ain't gon' change.
06:54I keep a revolver with your name.
06:57I keep a revolver with your name.
06:59Just in case.
07:01You see what I'm doing there?
07:14Like I'm drawing the tic-tac-toe thing over and over again.
07:18You know what I mean?
07:18And then I'm playing the game over and over again.
07:20You get that?
07:20I don't like that one.
07:21That's, no.
07:22Yeah?
07:22No.
07:24You know the guy that stands on the corner of the house in Lafayette?
07:26Yeah.
07:27Been there forever.
07:27Looks like he's gonna cross the street.
07:29He never goes anywhere.
07:29He just stands there.
07:32Very good.
07:33Yeah?
07:34Yeah.
07:34Yeah?
07:35So it's like...
07:37Okay, let me just say something.
07:40Would you stop?
07:41This robe smells like piss.
07:44And I need to get you a clean one, please.
07:46Would you stop with the...
07:48Just stop with the robe, all right?
07:50Look, I could spend the rest of my life in jail.
07:53I'm about to get arrested.
07:54For what?
07:55Since when are you getting arrested?
07:56Since birth.
07:57That's since when.
07:58I got this under control.
08:00I can handle it.
08:01Just calm down.
08:02Where are my slippers?
08:03Go scratch your ass with these friggin' slippers.
08:05You leave them all over the goddamn house.
08:08Come on.
08:09I have my hands out.
08:10You could have handed them to me.
08:11Where's our fucking Jew lawyer anyway?
08:13I don't know where the...
08:13Where is he?
08:14Where is he?
08:14Listen.
08:15I pay that guy to be on a fucking leash.
08:21That's a long fucking leash.
08:22Those fucking Jews.
08:23Those fucking Jews.
08:26Open up!
08:27FBI!
08:29Don't you see that my husband is a sick man?
08:33Have some respect in front of his wife!
08:34Jason Gigante, I have a warrant out for your arrest.
08:37What the hell's that he do?
08:38He can do anything!
08:44Hold on, officers.
08:45Release that man.
08:46Release him!
08:46I'm Mr. Gigante's lawyer, John Feynman.
08:48This is a writ from Judge Sawyer.
08:49My client is non-compos mentis
08:51and is to be remanded to Stony Hill Sanitarium
08:53for an immediate psychiatric evaluation.
08:55Can't you see this man is sick?
08:56Put your hand down.
09:00He didn't do anything, okay?
09:02Judge Sawyer, huh?
09:06Good move, Feynman.
09:09All right, let him go.
09:10Yeah, let him go.
09:11He's right.
09:12Come here, come here, come here.
09:13You should be ashamed of yourself.
09:15You come to my house like this?
09:17Ashamed!
09:19Game's not over, Mr. Gigante.
09:21Don't get too comfy in those slippers.
09:23Nice fucking suit and shoes, too, you prick.
09:31It's too dangerous.
09:32I sent Chance, Pettigrew, and Junibert.
09:35No, there's too many FBI down there.
09:37It's best you stay away.
09:38FBI can't do shit.
09:39Nor can LBJ's Marines.
09:41It's been over three months.
09:42Any black man from out of town
09:43who steps foot in Mississippi will get lynched.
09:46You know that.
09:46Maybe I need a white guy.
09:48Powell says it is LBJ's number one priority.
09:51It is the government's problem now, not yours.
09:54I need you to go to Powell's office
09:56and just ask him for a favor, all right?
09:58It's probably at least she took Margaret to the park.
10:08Okay.
10:09I got it.
10:15Ellsworth Johnson.
10:16We have a warrant out for your arrest.
10:18On what grounds?
10:19Trafficking 500 kilos of heroin
10:21from Marseille to New York City.
10:23Cuff him.
10:24What is happening?
10:26What's going on here?
10:27Call Duncan.
10:27Arrange bail.
10:29And don't worry.
10:30We'll be fine.
10:32On the contrary.
10:34You should be very worried.
10:35Oh, Ellsworth.
10:42Oh, Ellsworth.
10:42Are you okay?
11:10Are you hurt?
11:11I'm fine.
11:13Are you cut?
11:14This is the third time.
11:16Did you see anyone?
11:18Who was it?
11:20Oh, thank God the children aren't here.
11:27They're trying to intimidate me.
11:29They're trying to keep me quiet.
11:31And you won't let them, will you?
11:33I can't.
11:35I can't back down now.
11:36Those freedom riders risked their lives just to get people to vote.
11:43I cannot be expected to do anything less.
11:45No, should you.
11:47God, I'm just scared is all.
11:49Welcome.
11:50Welcome.
11:50Welcome.
11:50Welcome.
11:50Welcome.
11:55Betty.
11:59If you asked me to stop, to just be a minister to lead a calm, quiet life somewhere, without
12:07struggling for our freedoms, our rights, and our equalities, Betty, I'd do it.
12:12I'd do it.
12:13I'm not telling you that.
12:14You're fighting for us.
12:17For our children.
12:19For the future of our people.
12:21If anything, I want you to fight twice as hard.
12:29We'll get through this, Malcolm.
12:30Malcolm.
12:31Dr. Cooper, you're going to do 14, please.
12:51Dr. Cooper, you're going to do 14.
12:56Could you, could you stop it?
12:59Cut it out.
12:59Mr. Gigante, you have a visitor.
13:01Doctor, can you get this fucking guy to stop bagging his head against the fucking wall?
13:05All fucking day, come on.
13:06If I could, he wouldn't be here.
13:08Well, maybe you could, you know, slice off his balls, shove him up his ass.
13:12No, you're a doctor, right?
13:14You know, gently, and then up the wazoo.
13:17Doctor.
13:19Doctor.
13:20Doc.
13:23How you holding up?
13:25Fucking miserable.
13:26How long have I got to be in this fucking place?
13:30This place is keeping you out of jail.
13:31Well, unfortunately, Judge Sawyer's just been transferred out of state, and his rate of non-compus mentis has been invalidated.
13:39They can do that?
13:41Morgenthau, he's playing dirty.
13:43He also selected a new doctor to determine your sanity.
13:47You think they can make this stick?
13:52I think so.
13:54Our discovery shows they have a deposition from a confidential informant.
13:57Who?
13:58We won't know that until they take the stand.
14:00Unless you can find out somehow.
14:05Let me check.
14:08I got a couple of feds in my pocket.
14:09This is bad, huh?
14:14Look, if there's some reason you can't, uh, a Ben in Fort Morgenthau might be willing to make a deal.
14:20I'm not gonna rat anybody out, are you fucking kidding me?
14:23Come on, you let me do what I do, and you just hold them off.
14:26Fine.
14:27Meanwhile, you do everything you can to stay here, try to convince this new doctor that you're nuts, all right?
14:32That shouldn't be too difficult.
14:33All I gotta do is bang my head against the wall like this fucking Simpson Chotto over here.
14:37Look at him.
14:37Hey, a little faster.
14:39Come on.
14:55Sorry I arrested you in front of your wife.
14:58No, you're not.
14:59You did it on purpose.
15:02You have much to lose, which is why I am hoping
15:07you'll listen to reason.
15:10I don't snitch.
15:12You and Shinjigante are guilty of importing hundreds of kilos of heroin.
15:16We're talking decades in jail.
15:19I haven't seen any evidence yet.
15:23Got any witnesses?
15:26Who?
15:27Shinjigante?
15:28I know I think the Italians, so what?
15:33Obviously, that information is confidential, but I can assure you that we have multiple informants.
15:40Mm-hmm.
15:40I have a good case, Johnson.
15:43I urge you not to be a martyr for a lost cause.
15:48What cause is that?
15:48It's Omerda bullshit.
15:50Stop protecting the mob.
15:52Work with me.
15:53The only cause that I'm interested in is my family and their safety.
16:07No.
16:07I understand you donated money for the buses that took the civil rights activists down
16:15to Mississippi.
16:16I wasn't got to do with anything.
16:17Schwerner and Goodman are Jews, as am I.
16:21In Jewish law, if two men are thirsty and only one has water, it's allowable for the man
16:27with water to drink at the expense of the other.
16:31I appreciate you citing Jewish law to give me the snitch.
16:37Blacks and Jews share a common history of oppression.
16:40We're survivors.
16:45I'm offering you a lifeline, Ellsworth.
16:52You offering Shin a lifeline, too?
16:55Not yet.
16:57But I will do whatever it takes.
17:01To see that justice is served.
17:06For blacks and Jews, justice is a dish always served cold.
17:19Jewish law also says that life is precious before the eyes of God and before the eyes of
17:26your children.
17:27Don't let yours have to see you waste your precious life behind bars.
17:33Little fuck.
17:43Little fuck.
17:45Six feet of chambered stone, the nation gives us for a home.
17:58Ten feet from top to floor, a bardent gate serves its door.
18:03The weak will perish where they start, the strong will play a greater part, and they leave behind
18:11them when they pass a monument in Alcatraz.
18:15There is nothing in there.
18:24There is nothing in there.
18:31Give me that.
18:32Give me.
18:33Give me.
18:33Please.
18:38No!
18:43That was what I wanted to do!
18:45Oh, God.
18:49Come on!
18:49You get off of him!
18:50A special jail for special men that someone hopes won't rise again.
19:07It be man low, or be he great.
19:11No one controls a strong man's fate.
19:13Well?
19:36This is the most powerful speech you've ever written.
19:38Well, it's not quite finished yet, but it puts the white man on notice.
19:44And calls up civil rights leaders and people of all faiths from all over the world to take action.
19:52Now you have enemies on all folk on this gear.
19:55Well, the way I see it, freedom shouldn't be a word in our vocabulary if we aren't willing to die for it.
20:02Like those freedom riders?
20:04Those kids want a bus ride to hell.
20:06Well, my speech is a bus ride into the hearts of the black community.
20:13Without black nationalism, we will never take charge of our political future.
20:22What's bothering you?
20:25This speech could get you killed.
20:28Especially if you broadcast it on the radio.
20:30I've dealt with threats before.
20:33I hear the way people talk at the mosque.
20:35I have seen the FBI following you around like a dog chasing a bone.
20:39When I look into the eyes of my children,
20:42there isn't anything I wouldn't do to give them the kind of justice that's been denied us.
20:49I feel the same way when I look at Margaret.
20:53Then you understand my purpose.
20:54Thank goodness you made me.
21:06I was so worried about you.
21:09Don't worry.
21:11I'm okay, little one.
21:12Your daddy's home now.
21:13Everything is going to be fine.
21:14Do we have to go back to jail?
21:20No.
21:22Margaret, why don't you go finish your homework?
21:24We'll all sit down to dinner later and talk then, okay?
21:27Okay.
21:29I love you, daddy.
21:30I love you, too.
21:32But don't worry.
21:33You ain't never going back to jail.
21:35Okay.
21:35You ain't never going back to jail.
21:37Okay.
21:37What if you do go?
21:42That little girl is going to be devastated.
21:45I will handle this, all right?
21:48Is that goddamn drug business?
21:50That's what gets you sent to jail, not the other things.
21:53The government wants to make me the puppet.
21:56Tie strings to my limbs and make me dance.
21:58I won't do it.
21:59That's not freedom.
22:00That's enslavement.
22:03I waited 11 years for you while you were in Alcatraz.
22:08Bumpy.
22:11I'm not sure I can do it again.
22:14You won't have to.
22:16I promise.
22:19Who is that?
22:20That is my new lawyer.
22:26I, uh, I must admit I was surprised to get your call.
22:31You're changing God's lawyer.
22:33I want to make you mine.
22:34Representing you might create an acute conflict of interest.
22:38Morgenthau already tried to get me to snitch.
22:40No doubt he'll try with Chin.
22:42We both need to nip that in the bud.
22:44Our interests are the same.
22:46With all due respect, Mr. Giganti hates your guts.
22:49Almost as much as I hate his.
22:51But there's something we can do for each other.
22:54Of mutual benefit.
22:54I'm listening.
22:57I'm not talking.
22:59Yet.
23:00Not until that attorney-client privilege kicks in.
23:05I'm very expensive.
23:07I can afford it.
23:09And I don't want to know about anything illegal.
23:10You're joking, right?
23:17I have to say that.
23:19Oh, man.
23:22You're a $5,000 retainer.
23:25That good enough for you?
23:27Bumpy Johnson, I am very happy to represent you.
23:30So, what do you have in mind?
23:45Mr. Giganti, how you doing?
23:47What the fuck do you think?
23:50Right.
23:54Your appointment with the government shrink.
23:57Dr. Susan Beck is in about an hour.
23:59You need to convince her that you belong here.
24:02Yeah, I got that under control.
24:04I forced that fucking finocchio doctor to give me some crazy pills.
24:10Good idea.
24:14My mother was in a place like this.
24:18She was never the same after the shock treatments.
24:23Was that supposed to cheer me up?
24:26Did you reach out to my federal contacts?
24:28I did.
24:29They confirmed as an informant.
24:31One with immunity from both the feds and Interpol.
24:35Interpol?
24:37Well, that's got to be one of them frogs, no?
24:41What are we going to do?
24:47Uh, something interesting came up.
24:52I, uh, I recently became counsel to a man that you hate more than anyone in this world.
25:02What are you talking about?
25:03Bumpy Johnson.
25:05And he just might be the key to your salvation.
25:08I want to thank you for seeing me on such short notice, Congressman Powell.
25:17You know, Mamie, I would do anything for you.
25:19Glad to hear it.
25:20Because I have a big favor to ask.
25:23If this has anything to do with your husband's problem with Robert Morgenthau, my hands are tied.
25:31I know that.
25:33But there might be something your friend can do.
25:37My friend?
25:40What friend is that?
25:42The President of the United States.
25:44Oh, that friend.
25:48The President won't have anything to do with Bumpy Johnson.
25:50Of course.
25:51I'm talking about what Bumpy Johnson can do for him.
25:54You and I both know LBJ's top priority is to find those freedom riders.
25:58What the hell's that to do with Bumpy?
25:59He thinks he can do it.
26:01He just needs to know who the FBI thinks are the chief suspects.
26:04Or he thinks that he can do what 100 FBI agents and Marines can't.
26:08Oh, they're bound by the law.
26:11Bumpy doesn't necessarily have that problem.
26:13That's right.
26:14He's a criminal.
26:16I shouldn't be having this conversation.
26:17Bumpy wanted to help before he was arrested, but I dissuaded him.
26:21I thought it was too dangerous.
26:22But now, maybe it can help him.
26:25I would do anything to help my husband.
26:29You can understand that?
26:34I've always thought that justice delayed is justice denied.
26:47And those poor boys have been missing over four months.
26:50Yeah, I seem to recall receiving an FBI file on the latest leads in the case.
27:01I just don't know where I put it.
27:05I seem to have misplaced it.
27:07Let me look.
27:12Not there.
27:14You know it's not there either.
27:15Well, perhaps you'll let me know when you find it.
27:22Of course I will.
27:23You know it.
27:28I don't know.
27:32I don't know.
27:45Let's go.
28:15Klan members Cecil Palmetter and Sam Crawford, both local police officers, were part of the crew, murdered and hid the bodies of the Freedom Riders.
28:35Hello, Daddy. I just thought about to have a word. Do you have a few minutes?
28:40Elise, I always have time for you.
28:45So what you got, little one?
28:52I remember the day they took you to Alcatraz. I think I was 12.
28:57I said goodbye like you were going off to dinner, maybe a weekend vacation.
29:03It wasn't until a whole week later that I realized you weren't coming back.
29:06They ain't going to get me this time. I promise.
29:15I just feel like maybe my whole world's falling apart.
29:18I'm worried about you. I'm worried about Malcolm.
29:24Why Malcolm?
29:26He showed me the speech he wants to give.
29:30It's brilliant, but so provocative.
29:35You expected anything less?
29:36He had so many enemies, and I tried to convince him not to give the speech, but he won't listen.
29:43He's stubborn.
29:44Yeah, like someone else I know.
29:49Maybe sometimes you got to let stubborn men just do that thing.
29:55You're going to be all right.
30:03Everything's going to be all right.
30:06Promise?
30:08I promise you.
30:09Oh, hello.
30:26The break was just a warning.
30:28Who is this?
30:29Next time, we're going to firebomb your house.
30:33Who is this, coward?
30:35State your name, coward!
30:36You better shut up, or we'll shut you up.
30:40Hello?
30:42Hello?
30:42Hello?
31:06I've been told you wanted to see me?
31:08That's right.
31:10I asked Jim for three men.
31:12This is all he can spare.
31:13Besides which, he has great confidence in this man.
31:16Take her to leave it.
31:20You ever been down south?
31:22No, sir.
31:25Won't be easy getting these clansmen to talk.
31:28I won't worry about that.
31:31Hmm.
31:32First picture you're seeing there is Sam Crawford, sheriff of Neshoba County, and the Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.
31:43The other is the deputy Cecil Palmetto.
31:47There's a plane ticket that goes to Mississippi.
31:50You arrive at 6 p.m. tonight.
31:52The feds believe that these men know where those missing kids are buried.
31:56I'll get it out of here.
31:58I'll get it out of here.
31:59I don't like the fucking Klan any more than you do.
32:04Oh, yeah?
32:06I read an article in Life magazine.
32:08Nazis, the Klan.
32:09All the same.
32:11Just need someone to pick on to feel good about themselves.
32:15Show them no mercy, then.
32:17What's mercy?
32:27Mr. Giganti wanted me to give you a message.
32:33What's this?
32:36We found the rat.
32:39That smells delicious.
32:49Oh, my God.
32:49It's to die for.
32:50Mmm.
32:51Ah, quit it.
32:53Oh, that's nice.
32:55Making it for your father so he doesn't have to eat that shitty nut house food.
32:59I ate that shitty nut house food for two months.
33:03Thanks, Dan.
33:03Dear God, so what are you going to stop, huh?
33:06Don't you have any feelings for your father?
33:08He's facing life in prison.
33:15What?
33:16What's on your mind?
33:17You know, when I was little, I worshipped him.
33:23He was so smart and funny.
33:26He'd listen to me.
33:28He'd give me quarters out of his pocket every now and then.
33:30You remember that.
33:31I certainly do.
33:32I thought he could do no wrong.
33:36Clearly, I was wrong about that, but I never stopped feeling that way about him.
33:42He's my dad.
33:44That's very sweet of you, Stella.
33:46At the same time, I can't help feeling like him in the nut house is some kind of payback for what he did to me.
33:53Stella, your father is not your enemy, okay?
33:57He just wants what's best for you.
33:59You gotta know that.
34:01I want what's best for him, too.
34:04He'll find that out soon enough.
34:06It says here, Dr. Cooper diagnosed you with psychotic schizophrenia.
34:15When did you first experience symptoms, Mr. Giganti?
34:17I mean, just look over there for a second.
34:28Can you see that?
34:29Mr. Giganti, I asked you a question.
34:33Holy shit!
34:35Did this doctor prescribe anything for your condition?
34:37Just one second.
34:39I'm answering the frickin' questions as much as I can.
34:43Mr. Giganti.
34:44Just hang on one second, because you're reading my thoughts, and that's a little weird for me.
34:50That's something that I've never been through before.
34:52It's okay.
34:53There's no problems here.
34:55Did this doctor prescribe anything for your condition?
34:58Yes.
35:00And?
35:00Pills.
35:01What pills?
35:02Pills.
35:03Doop.
35:04What pills?
35:05Is it the pee?
35:05Is it the pee in pills?
35:08Pills.
35:09Doop.
35:10That's weird.
35:12Frills.
35:13Nothing.
35:14What pills?
35:15I took what he called acid, but not the kind of acid you throw in somebody's face.
35:21LSD?
35:23I think so, yes.
35:25Who gave you LSD?
35:26Did Dr. Cooper give you LSD?
35:29There's water.
35:31Mr. Giganti, you probably don't realize that LSD has many qualities in common with sodium pentothal,
35:37a truth serum.
35:39How do you do that like that?
35:42Am I doing that now?
35:44Do I do it as fast as you?
35:45Watch.
35:47Mr. Giganti, did you take LSD to try to convince me you are legally insane?
35:54In this reality right here, but the one over there is different, okay?
35:58That's different because there's a lamp.
36:00Mr. Giganti, I asked you a question.
36:02Did you take LSD to try to convince me you are legally insane?
36:05Yes.
36:06The answer to that is yes.
36:07I think we are done here.
36:08That's amazing.
36:09You're so sweet.
36:10You're such a sweet person.
36:11Betty Shibbaz, what are you doing?
36:37It's magnificent.
36:42It's magnificent.
36:46You read it.
36:48Every word.
36:50The call to unity?
36:51The political power that they try to steal from us?
36:55The call to black nationalism?
37:00I can't give this speech.
37:02Then why is that?
37:03Broadcasting this speech will only provoke more violence against us.
37:07Because I can't allow that for your sake or the children.
37:13Come here.
37:22This is your path, Malcolm.
37:25It would be wrong for you to deny it.
37:29Hey.
37:30The kids and I will be just fine.
37:35LBJ gifted me a box of these Cubans.
38:00Let me know what you think of them.
38:02I haven't smoked one yet.
38:03Not entirely sure.
38:05I understand, Congressman.
38:06What exactly are you asking me to do?
38:09I'm not quite sure I understand why you've wrapped Ellsworth Johnson into this prosecution.
38:16Because he's guilty of drug trafficking.
38:19Yes.
38:20And that is against the law.
38:23But the purpose of this investigation was to loosen the hold of the Italian mafia on the city.
38:29Exactly.
38:30Exactly.
38:31Vincent Gigante was just deemed sane by one of our certified doctors.
38:36Gigante and Johnson are in partnership.
38:39Both men are equally guilty.
38:43I have to follow the law.
38:44Of course you do.
38:45But inasmuch as the law on Earth is stamped in black and white,
38:53the laws of heaven, perhaps I'm more fluid.
38:58With all due respect, Congressman, what the fuck are you talking about?
39:02Pompey Johnson, it seems, is doing some very valuable work for the federal government as we speak.
39:09Let me be clear, Congressman.
39:12If Ellsworth Johnson isn't prosecuted, the case against Gigante falls apart, too.
39:18Well, I'm sure that Mr. Gigante will give you plenty of opportunities to arrest him in the future.
39:23Yeah, I'm a little deaf in my right ear here.
39:28I'm not sure I heard you correctly.
39:30Are you saying that you draw a distinction between black and white criminals?
39:33No, just a distinction between good and bad people.
39:39I'm not entirely interested in judging someone's character, Congressman.
39:44I more care about whether or not they've broken the law.
39:47And I am sworn to uphold the law.
39:50All I am saying is that sometimes there are criminals who do good deeds.
40:01Yes, you're protecting Ellsworth Johnson.
40:05What exactly is he doing that is so important?
40:09I don't know.
40:11Maybe nothing.
40:12It's a gray area.
40:15That's all.
40:18Are you drunk?
40:20I ain't drunk.
40:22You're drunk.
40:23You gotta move on to meet the starts in 15 minutes.
40:31Change your plans, fellas.
40:34Oh, putain, they're so horrible, these things-là .
40:37I don't know how we're going to do it.
40:38We're going to go, huh?
40:50You heard that Cin Gigante and myself were arrested?
40:54Absolutely.
40:54Which is why we're leaving town tomorrow.
40:57If they came after you, it's most likely that we were compromised, no?
41:01How do I know you're not skipping town?
41:03Because you gotta deal with the feds.
41:05You must be out of your mind.
41:06No, no, no, no, no.
41:07He has every right to ask us these questions.
41:11The Sicilian would truck us down and cut us to pieces.
41:14We're not suicidal, Bumpy.
41:16And I'm surprised you can't guess who is behind this.
41:20Who's that?
41:21Well, Bonanno, of course.
41:22He hasn't forgotten that little show you put on for him at your club.
41:28Bonanno wouldn't snitch.
41:29Against his own.
41:31Maybe.
41:32But which rule or code prevents him from telling the FBI about you?
41:37We did not betray you.
41:40That way...
41:42you.
41:44You're insane.
41:46I've known this man for years.
41:48We fought in Algeria together.
41:50He would never betray us.
41:51He gave you up pretty quick when I cut his face.
41:55Maybe that's the reason you want to get back at me for that.
41:58If I thought he was doing that, I'd kill him myself.
42:03I have it on good information that your man here
42:05is cooperating with Robert Morgenthau.
42:08That's a lie.
42:10Well, what proof do you have?
42:11You can't accuse a man without proof.
42:15According to my lawyer,
42:16Morgenthau's informant could have dealt with the feds
42:19and with Interpol so that he could get immunity here
42:21and in Marseille.
42:23You said you'd kill him yourself, right?
42:37Hold on.
42:38Hold on.
42:49Ellsworth Johnson's behavior is immoral.
42:52If we're being religious now,
42:54morality is the key to mishpat,
42:57or Jewish law.
42:58Jesus was a rabbi.
43:01So I've made a study of your religion.
43:06And in Judaism,
43:08morality relates to man's inner consciousness,
43:13not only his deeds.
43:15Unless he is importing heroin.
43:21Congressman, let me ask you.
43:24Have you ever stopped
43:26to consider that the man who you're protecting
43:31is destroying this city?
43:36Go on.
43:38Pick it up.
43:42Pick it up.
43:43Pick it up.
43:45A chance is going to put a bullet
43:46in your fucking head.
43:50Pick it up.
43:56What are you doing, Jean?
43:58What are you doing?
43:59You're not going to believe it, right?
44:01I'm sorry.
44:04I never thought you'd betray me.
44:10Forgive me.
44:11Your boss was a rat.
44:34Don't worry, the gun wasn't loaded.
44:35I just wanted you to see what kind of man he is.
44:37What is this?
44:38He was willing to kill you to cover himself.
44:42He's got warrants in two different countries.
44:44That's why he caught a deal.
44:45A little piece of shit.
44:57What do you want?
44:58I want you to come work for me.
45:041964 threatens to be the most explosive year America has ever witnessed.
45:11Why?
45:12Well, because it's also a political year.
45:14This is the year when all of the white politicians will be back in the so-called Negro community
45:22jiving you and me for some votes.
45:26Now, you never see them until election time.
45:28You can't find them until election time.
45:30But this is the year when all of the white political crooks will be right back in the Negro community
45:37building up our hopes for a letdown with their trickery and treachery and their false promises
45:42which they don't intend to keep.
45:44Now, as they nourish these dissatisfactions, it can only lead to one thing.
45:52An explosion.
45:56What the fuck do you want?
45:57All you got to do is tell me where the Freedom Rider boys are, dead or alive.
46:01You just don't know who you're messing with, boy.
46:04Yeah, I do.
46:05A couple of fucking hillbillies dressed in bed sheets.
46:07You're a dead man.
46:08See how, motherfuckers.
46:16I'm no politician.
46:18I'm not a Democrat, nor a Republican, nor an American.
46:21And I got sense enough to know it.
46:23I'm one of the 22 million black victims of the Democrats.
46:28One of the 22 million black victims of the Republicans.
46:32And one of the 22 million black victims of Americanism.
46:36And when I speak, I don't speak as a Democrat or a Republican.
46:42I speak as a victim of America's so-called democracy.
46:45While you and I, we've never seen any democracy, all we've seen is hypocrisy.
46:51We don't see any American dream.
46:52We experience only the American nightmare.
46:56That's what a Negro feels like when you got them all tied up, huh?
46:59If I had a ladder, I'd have lynch you both, but this will have to do.
47:07Where are they?
47:08We don't know nothing about no fucking Jew boys and niggas from New York.
47:12It's time for us to submerge our differences and realize that we all have the same problem.
47:19A problem that'll make you catch hell, whether you're a Baptist or a Methodist or a Muslim or a nationalist.
47:25We all in the same bag, we all in the same boat, and we all gonna catch the same hell from the same man.
47:31That man just happens to be an old blue-eyed, blonde-haired, bad-smelling white man.
47:36And when he get ready to wring your neck, why, he's not going to stop to inquire about your religious beliefs.
47:43No, he's gonna hang you because you're black.
47:44Now, in speaking like this, it doesn't mean that we are anti-white, no.
47:52But it does mean that we are anti-oppression, anti-degradation, and anti-exploitation.
47:59Now, you're starting to get me pissed off.
48:01I'm gonna ask you again, where the fuck are they?
48:03I don't know.
48:05All right.
48:06You take your time, boys.
48:09I got a whole fucking night.
48:10So, if the white man doesn't want us to be anti-him, then let him stop socially degrading us, politically oppressing us, economically exploiting us.
48:23Every time there's an election, the races are so close that they have to have a recount.
48:30They had to recount over in Massachusetts it was so close.
48:33Same thing with Kennedy and Nixon when they ran for president.
48:36What does this mean?
48:36Well, it means that every time these old white politicians are evenly divided and black people have a block of votes to their own,
48:47it's left up to you and me to decide who's going to sit in the White House and who's going to be in the doghouse.
48:54The time is long overdue for you and me to become more politically mature and realize exactly what the ballot is for,
49:01what we're supposed to get when we cast a ballot, and that if we don't cast a ballot,
49:06it's going to end up in a situation where we're going to have to cast a bullet.
49:14Last chance.
49:15Where are they?
49:17Fuck you.
49:18There's a new type of black man on the scene in America today.
49:30One who doesn't intend to just sit around and turn the other cheek.
49:35It'll be a ballot or it'll be a bullet.
49:37It'll be ballots or it'll be bullets.
49:40It'll be liberty or it'll be death.
49:42The only difference with this kind of death
49:46is that it'll be reciprocal.
49:53Now, if you never hear from me again,
49:56if you never see my face another time in your life,
50:00if I happen to die in the morning,
50:04why, you better believe I'll die saying one thing.
50:09The ballot or the bullet.
50:12The ballot or the bullet.
50:18Where are the freedom riders?
50:26Ending four months of speculation,
50:29the bodies of James Cheney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner
50:32were found underneath an earthen dam on Burgess Farm
50:35in Weshoba County, Mississippi.
50:37The activists were found after an informant,
50:39discussed in FBI reports only as Mr. X,
50:42passed along a tip to federal authorities.
50:45The focus shipped...
50:46I was hoping they would find them alive.
50:48When their burnt-out station wagon...
50:50We all were, honey.
50:53Thank God for Mr. X.
50:55Mr. X did a good job, right?
50:57Mm-hmm.
50:58I'm gonna get ready for school.
50:59So, the Fetch just dropped the case against you and Chet?
51:08For now.
51:10The witness disappeared on them,
51:12from what I understand.
51:14But I don't think we can rest easy.
51:17There might be more than one of them.
51:18Listen, my case has fallen apart for the time being.
51:25As soon as I can, I'm gonna refile.
51:28But next time,
51:29you're gonna need to testify.
51:35I already told you everything I know.
51:38Don't you ever call me again.
51:40We're home.
51:46Stella!
51:46Oh, my God!
