If you're a regular viewer, Black Horizons, you know that we've been serving the community for 35 years. You also know us from our specials like The House, Great Celebration, and Me Too Junior. But what you may not know is that Black Horizons and all of our local programs that you love depend on help from viewers like you. Now doing most of our March membership drive, Black Horizons will be preempted so we can bring you a few special programs. So while you're watching, think about on cue, Black Horizons, and all of your other favorites. Your membership dollars allow WQED to keep bringing you quality programming that you and your family can depend on. And think about becoming a member of WQED Multimedia, and thanks again. We couldn't do it without viewers like you. What are
you doing, it's stupid. What about my needs? I need to get a jump up right here. Okay.
Okay. Okay. Can you, now I feel like Tom Giuliani, can you tip the left corner
of the book further down? Further down? Yeah. It's kind of like maybe if you move the book slightly to your right, it would be more even. Yeah, it's much better now that I figured out that it was the rug. It wants to go in the basement.
Me. I don't know. It's meep and framp. Meep. Meep. Meep.
Meep. Meep. Meep. Meep.
I can't where people get used to squinting at why I all the time. That makes me crazy. Are we going to get used to squinting or not squinting? Squinting like always doing like that. And how do you see right? I always thought it was a bad habit squinting the other eye. thought
it was a bad habit squinting. I always thought it was a bad habit squinting. I always thought it was a bad habit squinting.
I always thought it was a bad habit squinting. I always thought it was a bad habit squinting. I always thought it was a bad habit squinting. Okay, turn the beach.

Like that? Can you do it any farther forward? Okay. Okay. Okay.
Okay. Okay. Okay.
Okay. Okay. Can you pull your
right fingers back any like maybe hold it down at the bottom? Okay. Okay. Okay.
That looks much better than last time. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Beautiful country.
Man can get lost out here. Forget there's people and things that ain't so simple as this. How long have we been riding together, Charlie? Nine, ten years. You know what to call it? Call it a decade. Long time. Been a lot of change since then. Find your mind boss. Well, I figured we can leave the cattle behind and run or you and me can go out there in the dark and stop them before they scatter the herd. You reckon them cows were getting killed over? Well, cows is one thing. But one man telling another man where he can go in this country, something else. That ranch is sat in a jailhouse sort of sneering and letting his law man lay down the law to leave figured it was time to show us that he gave the orders around here. Ooh, sticks in my claw.
Well, we sure as hell own for what they've done the most. Yeah. I'll saddle the horses. You just gonna go off like that without saying nothing? Ain't nothing to say. I've seen how you look at cattle the way she looks at you. Ain't right to walk away without a word. Well, what do you want me to tell her boss? We're probably ain't gonna make it. Be a big fat comfort. I don't know what she should tell her, Charlie. I mean, I wish I'd have said more to my wife before she passed. This may be the last time she sees it in this world, Charlie. Oh, you heard. So tell her whatever you can because she's entitled more than just your backside.
Walkin' away. Button, is that his real name? Please, sit. Yeah. So, only one we've known. He's just a boy. Yeah. Pick them up at a Texas town a few years back. They've been off cafe garbage. Couldn't speak word English. That was doing him a favor. What about you? You know that the Marshall works for Baxter. People saw you right in. Well, there's payment to be made by them that done this, don't. And tend to run. We could wire for the federal Marshall.
If we started riding today, it wouldn't make it for a week. The storm coming, maybe, longer. We're obliged to deal with the Marshall and backs ourselves. What about Button? Well, he's fighting for his life. We're gonna do the same. Well, in all Western, you usually have inigmatic characters. And almost don't know how they arrive, how they get to where they've got. You know, you look at them in really the only possessions they have are on their horse. And it's a terribly romantic image. But if you think a little bit longer, you think, well, what are they doing at range? What do you think when they when they run out of food,
they've got to go forage for themselves. We have a romantic view of what the West is like. In fact, it was terribly difficult and you had to be very resourceful. And what you see in Charlie is the inigmatic character, the classic character, we almost don't know about him and suddenly begins to reveal himself in a violent past. And he's kind of a good man who thinks he's bad. Those hats you're talking about, they're just titles. But, you know, I've always in my own mind just not thought of myself just as an actor. You know, somebody contributing to the movie, whether it's picking up a sandbag or just being there for an extra idea if someone wants it. The challenges just seem awesome. And I just say that because I'm not flinching about it. Every day just seems harder than the next on some level. But it's like something that I just feel like I'm not going to let slip by me. And I'm just going to ring every ounce
of daylight out of it. And I just am not going to stop until the images almost match up with what's in my mind. And the inspiration is that my friend says you can do it. You know, even though they look at me and I kind of be hanging and they go, you know, you can do it. And I'm thinking, how the hell do they know that? And I'm thinking, you do it. But when you look around, you realize nobody's going to do it, but yourself. You know, you've got to keep going and that's the job. You call me and said, don't take any jobs. I got a terrific script. I'm going to send it when he sent it. I read it and I got back within 24 hours that I wanted to be in. A little classic question, great part. You offered me a wonderful part. And they, you know, it's a great opportunity. I mean, to do Western. It's an independent cattle man on a small level, but, you know, he does well. And that's his life. That's his life, you know, all over the West. I
try to build, you know, maybe he came out of the Civil War, came West, you know, or maybe not. You know, it's all part of that, you know, Western thing, that Western culture. And I think he was embedded in that grew up and it feels good and it feels safe in it, you know. And it's an interesting guy because he's a leader of a small group of guys. It's fun to play someone like Sue. I really wanted to play that. A woman of real substance and simplicity. And she's very solid and I enjoyed doing that. I enjoyed exploring that. He's a wonderful villain as is James Russo, Jimmy Russo plays the Marshall. And he is, they're both terrific and truly, deeply bad guys.
But it's okay, they get it in the end. You You You
