00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,954
Roy Acuff, as you know, has been a big star
at the Opry here for quite some time.
3
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,115
We have a company,
a music publishing company.
4
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,474
But, yeah, I liked Hank right off.
5
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:50,636
I think it's 'cause he didn't give a darn
if you liked him or not.
6
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:02,436
I tried so hard, my dear
7
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:08,755
To show that you're my every dream
8
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:15,952
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
9
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,111
Is just some evil scheme
10
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:27,675
A memory from your lonesome past
11
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:34,158
Keeps us so far apart
12
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:41,312
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
13
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:48,835
And melt your cold, cold heart
14
00:01:54,600 --> 00:02:00,311
Another love before my time
15
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:05,318
Made your heart sad and blue
16
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:12,591
And so my heart is paying now
17
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,996
For things I didn't do
18
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,953
In anger unkind words are said
19
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:31,310
That made the teardrops start
20
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:38,917
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
21
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:45,470
And melt your cold, cold heart
22
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,198
You know what ti me
I get up every morning, Hank?
23
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,032
No idea, sir.
24
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,269
4:45.
25
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,836
Sun don't never ever beat me.
26
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,515
Then know what I did at 6:15?
27
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,512
Listen to my radio show?
28
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,033
- On WSFA?
- Uh-huh.
29
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,031
Nope. I had my breakfast.
30
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,357
Well, fair enough, I guess.
31
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,159
We ain't that big
or we wouldn't be singin' at that hour.
32
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:51,719
Nah, I was just kidding around.
33
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,560
I listen to your program
every now and then.
34
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:54,600
- You do?
- Yeah.
35
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,376
- What do you think?
- That's pretty good stuff.
36
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:57,958
Well, pretty fair.
37
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:00,755
All right, now.
38
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,991
Just a couple more
little Justice of the Peace details.
39
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,750
So, this is your license
and divorce decree, Miss Guy?
40
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,034
Well, I'm Miss Sheppard now.
41
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:10,917
Guy was Erksine's surname.
42
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,434
But these divorce papers
are in order, right?
43
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:14,714
They definitely are.
44
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,075
Mr. Guy and I took care of that.
45
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,958
You'll take notice that
it's been notarized as well?
46
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,678
Yeah, I see that.
47
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,197
- Just 10 days ago, huh?
- Yeah.
48
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,190
Well, to the business at hand.
49
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,789
Just because these ceilings aren't vaulted
and the windows aren't stained glass
50
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,394
doesn't mean this union is any less sacred.
51
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,998
Audrey Mae Sheppard,
52
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:45,758
do you take Hiram King Hank Williams
to love and honor in all duty and service,
53
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:49,879
to live with him and cherish him
according to the bonds of marriage?
54
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,153
I sure will.
55
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,474
And do you, Hiram King Hank Williams,
56
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,473
have this woman, Audrey Mae Sheppard,
to be your wife?
57
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,759
And will you promise faithfulness in all
love and honor and all duty and service
58
00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:08,116
to live with her
according to the bonds of marriage?
59
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:10,788
I will.
60
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,076
Then by the authority vested in me,
61
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,879
from the County of Covington
in the state of Alabama,
62
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,911
I declare you husband and wife.
63
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,033
I've tried and I've tried
64
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,350
And all night long I've cried
65
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,274
But I can't get you off of my mind
66
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,553
All right, folks.
67
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,915
Now I'm gonna play a little tune for ya.
68
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,995
It might make sense to y'all.
69
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:48,438
Tonight or this mornin',
whatever the hell it is.
70
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:50,718
Don, don't screw it up.
71
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,475
- I'll try not to, bub.
- Let's roll.
72
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:29,633
When you are sad and lonely
And have no place to go
73
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,792
Come to see me, baby
And bring along some dough
74
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,397
And we'll go honky tonkin', honky tonkin'
75
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,036
Honky tonkin', honey baby
76
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,796
We 'll go honky tonkin'
'round this town...
77
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,076
How much you got there, Miss Lillie?
78
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,469
I'm under no obligation to you.
79
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:55,918
Well, that goes both ways, huh?
80
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,039
Call me up, sweet mama
And we'll go steppin' out...
81
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,509
He's drinking like a fish tonight.
82
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,593
You think so?
83
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,592
Honky tonkin', honey baby
84
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:12,239
We'll go honky tonkin' 'round this town
85
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,438
Thank y'all, folks.
86
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:46,395
Now, I'm gonna invite up here
my precious wife, Audrey.
87
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:48,994
Audrey, get up here.
88
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:50,229
Don't worry, Lillie.
89
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,470
Hank will hand it over to me
before we even get home.
90
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,673
Get up here.
91
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:58,279
She is a hell of a singer.
92
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:59,918
Say hi, Audrey.
93
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:01,469
Hi.
94
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:03,549
Hi.
95
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,719
Now we're gonna sing a little song here
called Blues Come Around.
96
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,513
Boys, let's roll.
97
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,319
Once I was happy as I could be
98
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,914
But I let a man make a fool of me
99
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,799
And ever since he let me down
100
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,196
The blues come around
When the sun goes down
101
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,990
As long as the sun is in the sky...
102
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:33,798
Hey, Williams!
103
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,640
You sound like a billy goat,
and so does she.
104
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:36,948
Sit down!
105
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:39,838
Sit down, you horse's ass.
106
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,148
When the sun goes down
107
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,673
Oh, the blues come around...
108
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,432
You skinny little shit!
109
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,276
When my wife wakes up,
she listens to you on the damn radio.
110
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,318
If she's listening tomorrow morning,
I'm gonna beat the hell out of her.
111
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,155
Well, partner, why don't you
just turn the damn thing off?
112
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:01,719
That's why they put knobs on it.
113
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,234
Wait, no!
114
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:07,520
Get off him!
115
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,079
- Get off!
- Get off!
116
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,912
Get off! Get off!
117
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,794
You need to control yourself, sir!
118
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:19,520
Damn.
119
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:20,669
Are you okay?
120
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:21,760
I'm fine, I'm fine.
121
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:22,869
I'm good.
122
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,312
You are late.
123
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,639
No, no, no.
124
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:54,789
No.
125
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,390
I know I birthed you, Hank.
126
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,953
I was there.
127
00:10:05,560 --> 00:10:10,270
But where you came from
and how you got what you got
128
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,280
and why you got it,
129
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,669
I swear, nobody knows that.
130
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,791
Except maybe the Lord.
131
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,309
Maybe.
132
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,589
She's gonna be pissed about this.
133
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,393
You think I care?
134
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,080
Shoot. I'm doing everybody
at the station a favor.
135
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,993
That woman hasn't got a clue
who the star is around here.
136
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,038
And I haven't been driving you
all over the state for 10 years,
137
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,951
booking joints and schoolhouses,
138
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,589
to see her swoop in
like she is the Queen of England.
139
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,713
Know why you and Audrey don't get along?
140
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:51,191
One of you is afraid the other's gonna
beat her to my pocket when I get drunk.
141
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,836
That's a hurtful thing to say, son.
142
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,434
Yeah, I'm just whupped, that's all.
143
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,711
I wish that was all.
144
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,832
When's the last time you ate?
145
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,239
Can't recall.
146
00:11:10,680 --> 00:11:12,432
Is your back sore?
147
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,559
It's fine.
148
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:21,976
If you want to be sure
149
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,434
you're getting the tops in quality
when you buy gas...
150
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,029
Hi, Laura.
151
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,394
Hey, Hank.
152
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,115
- How you doing?
- Good. How are you?
153
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,509
Now, you never write, you never call.
154
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,856
- What'd I do?
- Look, Hank, I got to get these to the office.
155
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,472
You got to go? Well, I'll see you soon.
156
00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:38,913
Bye, Hank.
157
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:40,833
I'll miss you.
158
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:48,634
Hi, boys.
159
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,153
- Morning, boss.
- Howdy, Hank.
160
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,240
How are y'all?
161
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,671
I am moving slow today.
162
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:07,837
Well, where's the missus?
163
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,518
She ain't here.
164
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:14,673
Williams!
165
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,955
Where you get off
wasting 12 minutes of airtime?
166
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,678
That shit ain't gonna work.
167
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,392
And you smell like a damn still.
168
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:21,993
All of ya.
169
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,116
Why, I'm sorry, Mr. Pill.
170
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:25,696
Yeah, well, that don't mean nothing to me.
171
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,312
I'll boot you, I swear to God I will.
172
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,988
We're running a business here, asshole.
173
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,470
Oh, I surely know that, Mr. Pill.
174
00:12:36,680 --> 00:12:38,398
Count him off.
175
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,670
Three, two, one.
176
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,549
Hey, a fine, very early good morning
to all you friends out there.
177
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,677
This is Hank Williams
and the Drifting Cowboys.
178
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,035
We're awful sorry we're
getting a late jump,
179
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:58,513
but last night, we got jumped ourselves
out on Highway 31.
180
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,000
Oh, yeah.
181
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:02,837
There's one more thing.
182
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,719
This looks like it's gonna be
our last program here at WSFA.
183
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,952
So, if any of you out there have enjoyed it,
we'd sure like to hear from ya.
184
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,951
You just write us and let us know.
185
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,679
Hey, Lycrecia, don't you love this book?
186
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,478
That's her cowboy.
187
00:13:19,560 --> 00:13:22,870
I dreamed about you, baby
188
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:24,395
Even though...
189
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:25,879
Oh, bless you, honey.
190
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:26,960
You let me go
191
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:28,792
- Look at his hat.
- Honey, what you think?
192
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,916
I'd like a hat like that.
193
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,798
How long's it been
since Lycrecia saw her daddy?
194
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,599
Well, he's gonna stop by next week
when she's at Mom and Dad's.
195
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:43,519
Oh, my heart is oh so heavy
196
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,755
And these tears
197
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,239
No longer glow
198
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,799
Come on. Eat-up time.
199
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,716
I'm done dreaming
200
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,633
About you, baby
201
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:05,438
All because you let me go
202
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:09,909
So?
203
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,034
It's fine, baby.
204
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,917
It's fine?
205
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,633
Yeah. Fine.
206
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:19,994
Well, how's the stew?
207
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:21,714
It's fine.
208
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,750
Everything's fine, then, huh?
209
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,279
Just fine.
210
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,268
You know, if it's fine,
it doesn't need any ketchup.
211
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:34,588
But it isn't that fine.
212
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:37,873
The food or the song?
213
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:42,039
Well, they both
need a little ketchup, honey.
214
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:45,879
Screw you, Hank.
215
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:47,871
- Oh, come on, Auds.
- You come on.
216
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,518
You always do this.
217
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,120
Do what?
218
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:52,792
Well, you know...
219
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,576
Like you said that I could sing with you
on the program.
220
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,352
And there's been none of that at all.
221
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:58,589
Okay, fine.
222
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,037
What's that mean?
223
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,475
Geez, just what I said it means, okay?
224
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:16,355
Hi.
225
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,711
What are you writing, Hank?
226
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,509
Uh, maybe a little poem to the Lord.
227
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,479
Might turn into a song.
228
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,278
Can always use a new one.
229
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,554
Really?
230
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,510
Are you the religious sort?
231
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,589
Well, when I was a boy,
232
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,990
I spent a lot of time in church
listening to gospel.
233
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,471
You still are a boy.
234
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,278
You think so, Ellie?
235
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,311
Why don't you write me a poem?
236
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,119
Well, uh...
237
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,114
I might have to get to
know you a little better.
238
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,792
Get lost, Ellie.
239
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:09,918
Did you see Howard Pill called?
240
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,070
Hank's got to come back. He has a contract.
241
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,032
That's true, we do.
242
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,312
And it's a good job right now.
243
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,789
He also said he'd like me
to do some singing on the show.
244
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,472
That is not true.
245
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,393
Geez,
I was doing pretty good here.
246
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,797
Few more shows, I want to be done with him.
247
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,916
It's not so easy to get out of.
248
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,672
Well, he can do what he wants, Lillie.
249
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,079
What is this, a schoolyard?
250
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:38,160
Where are you going?
251
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,993
Right now, I'm gonna take a piss.
252
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,152
Then the day after tomorrow,
I'm going up to Nashville.
253
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,040
Charlie Holt gave me the name of a guy
who can help me get on the Opry.
254
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,216
Well, I pressed Charlie Holt.
You know that. I told you.
255
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:50,832
You did. I know, yeah.
256
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,911
That's just swell, Audrey.
257
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:54,839
Sounds good, huh?
258
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,317
So, when are we going, baby?
259
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:58,594
Friday.
260
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:00,793
Friday?
261
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,758
But Mama's bringing Lycrecia back then.
262
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,952
So, there you go.
263
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,357
- Hello, sir.
- Hey there.
264
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,351
- I'm Hank Williams.
- I heard that.
265
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,158
Well, I'll get down to it, then.
266
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,957
Charlie Holt gave me your name.
267
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,256
He said you'd tell me what I have to do
to get on the Opry.
268
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,016
There's only one way to do that,
and that's to audition for Jack Stapp.
269
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,396
Well, I... You know, I sure hate
those auditions, Mr. Collins.
270
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,108
Maybe I could just meet him.
271
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:36,992
Son, there are no shortcuts to the Opry.
272
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,797
Well, could you tell
Mr. Stapp that I'm here?
273
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,158
Hank, how old are you?
274
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,710
Twenty... Twenty-three
when I last checked, sir.
275
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,576
Well, that's old enough
that you ought to know
276
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,238
that's not how it works.
277
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,754
Now, you're gonna make an appointment,
278
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:58,119
and then you'll play for him,
and if he likes it, you'll play for Judge Hay.
279
00:17:58,200 --> 00:17:59,553
And then what?
280
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,136
And then Judge Hay's likely to tell you
to come back
281
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:03,640
when you're hot enough to draw flies.
282
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,990
Well, I just might know how to do that.
283
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,796
Hank, you know Fred Rose?
284
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:13,958
I know of him.
285
00:18:14,120 --> 00:18:15,678
Roy Acuff's partner.
286
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,352
Among other things.
287
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,954
You might want to know of him
a little bit better.
288
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,198
When he first came to see me,
he played some songs he'd written
289
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,838
and some other folks' material.
290
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,829
Well, actually, I believe Audrey, his wife,
had been calling here quite a bit,
291
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,871
pushing me to see him.
292
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:37,115
And I offered him a contract
right then and there as a songwriter.
293
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:38,919
Damn publishing deal.
294
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,195
Ten dollars per song, plus royalties.
295
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,510
Officially a paid songwriter.
296
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,437
So I suggest you address me
297
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,720
as Mr. Hiram Williams from now on.
298
00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:51,111
Where the hell'd Hiram come from anyway?
299
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,952
From my old man.
300
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,600
Got it from King Hiram
of the Book of Kings.
301
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,796
Hiram the First of Tyre.
302
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,359
Can we get some strawberries later?
303
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:03,718
Lillie never mentions your daddy at all,
you know, like he never existed.
304
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,472
Yeah, she put him in
the Veterans Hospital when I was six.
305
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,835
The one down in Pensacola.
306
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,919
I don't know, it was a...
A war injury from France or something.
307
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,639
But a cousin told me
it was from a truck accident
308
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,188
in a lumberyard he was working in.
309
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,558
Anyway, he was all messed up, and...
310
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,592
That was about it for us.
311
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,991
Night-night, little bastard.
312
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,468
Better watch where you put that thing.
313
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,114
Hmm.
314
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,234
Howdy.
315
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,389
Hi.
316
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,073
I think we might have
a little bronco riding tonight.
317
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:14,989
Says who?
318
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,638
Says ol' Hank.
319
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:18,999
Well, I look forward to that event.
320
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,479
You should.
321
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,393
Especially since you're not drinking.
322
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:24,629
Oh...
323
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,559
Now, darling, that's uncalled for.
324
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:32,513
You're right.
325
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:38,359
Well, then come on and climb up, cowboy.
326
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:39,789
Ooh.
327
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,838
Oh, my back.
328
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,673
- It's gone again, baby.
- All right, then.
329
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,199
You love me?
330
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,159
You love me?
331
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,116
Do you really love me, honey?
332
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,832
Most of the time I do.
333
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,632
Came in
last night at a half past 10: 00
334
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,518
That baby of mine wouldn't let me in
335
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,318
So move it on over
336
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,118
Move it on over
337
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,589
- Move it on over
- Move it on over
338
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,719
Move over, little dog
'Cause the big dog's moving in
339
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,672
She changed the lock on our front door
340
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,479
And my door key don't fit no more
341
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,596
So get it on over
342
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,114
- Move it on over
- Scoot it on over
343
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,474
Move it on over
344
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,348
Move over, skinny dog
'Cause the fat dog's moving in...
345
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,456
Now, why don't you come down here,
346
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:49,736
and you'll see what I'm talking about.
347
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,079
Come down.
348
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,478
Now, you see that the left
is much higher than the right.
349
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,056
- Can you see it now?
- Sure, yeah. Yeah.
350
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,096
Now, good.
Now, why don't you go back up and fix it?
351
00:21:58,120 --> 00:21:59,189
Yes, ma'am.
352
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:00,759
And watch your head.
353
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:02,711
I don't need no blood.
354
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:23,839
Hey, honey, get in here.
355
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,114
What?
356
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,713
I want to show you something.
357
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,313
What is it?
358
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,834
Well, get in here, and I'll show you.
359
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,589
Well, okay, then.
360
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,195
What do you have to show me?
361
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:39,432
- You see this?
- Mmm-hmm.
362
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:41,594
Now...
363
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:48,435
"Where the inspiration for Move It On Over
came from, Hank couldn't say.
364
00:22:49,360 --> 00:22:51,999
"It surely wasn't his own married life.
365
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:56,153
"Mr. and Mrs. Hank Williams
lead a model domestic life."
366
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:57,816
Wait, you think that's funny?
367
00:22:57,840 --> 00:22:59,831
I kind of do. Don't you?
368
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,112
- Ooh.
- Hmm.
369
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,028
Also says we've sold over 90,000.
370
00:23:06,120 --> 00:23:07,155
My God.
371
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:08,395
If that's even half true,
372
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,278
I wonder what kind of money
that really adds up to.
373
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,553
Adds up to Hiram Williams
is a big damn deal.
374
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,519
Well, big deal, did you see
that note on the counter?
375
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,471
Howard Pill called, making sure
we're at the station tomorrow.
376
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,711
Oh, hell with that show.
I should have never gone back.
377
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:30,868
All right, folks.
378
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,712
I know it's 6:30 in the morning,
379
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,598
but say you're milking a cow
or just going to the store
380
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,591
for some extra feed or supplies,
381
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,671
we sure appreciate you listening to us.
382
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,159
We really do.
383
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,869
Now, I got a young lady
gonna sing a song for you.
384
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,916
- You here?
- I'm here.
385
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,672
I'm up in here.
386
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,593
She's slowly approaching the microscope.
387
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,033
You good?
388
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:54,275
I'm fine.
389
00:23:54,360 --> 00:23:55,952
Hey, you don't sound like you mean it.
390
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,036
- Well, I do.
- Well, good.
391
00:23:58,160 --> 00:23:59,832
Now, she's gonna sing a little ol' song
392
00:23:59,920 --> 00:24:02,036
called Pan American,
which some of you will know.
393
00:24:02,120 --> 00:24:07,035
It's the locomotive that highballs it
from Cincinnati all the way to New Orleans
394
00:24:07,120 --> 00:24:08,792
just about every day.
395
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,630
At least turn her mic down, for God's sake.
396
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,432
Set your clock by it.
397
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,033
All right, Byrd.
398
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:31,315
I have heard your stories
About your fast trains
399
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,360
And now I'll tell you about one
400
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,908
All the Southern folks have seen
401
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,673
She's the beauty of the Southland
402
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,558
Listen to that whistle scream
403
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:48,558
It's that Pan American
On her way to New Orleans...
404
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:54,719
Well, we got through that.
405
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:55,915
Barely.
406
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,874
Someone's got to do something about her.
407
00:24:59,960 --> 00:25:01,029
Well, well, well.
408
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,992
You boys discussing the weather or Audrey?
409
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:10,072
Well, Hank, actually
we were discussing her singing.
410
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:11,555
Oh, you were?
411
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:12,755
Yeah.
412
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,393
Um, well, Hank,
413
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,788
she's awful.
414
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,677
Hey, you son of a bitch, that's my wife.
415
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,640
Well, now, look, Hank,
you know as well as I do.
416
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,016
- Now, come on.
- Well, maybe I do,
417
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:26,096
but that don't matter right now.
418
00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:27,951
That's my wife you're talking about.
419
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,155
Well, screw you, my husband.
420
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,000
Hey, darling. Darling, you didn't hear
421
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:40,816
what I was saying back there.
I was defending you.
422
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,478
You did a hell of a job on that song.
423
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:43,874
- Just forget about it.
- Baby.
424
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,234
Baby, it's a beautiful morning.
425
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:46,594
You look beautiful.
426
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:47,749
We're doing really swell.
427
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:49,558
Oh, have another drink, Hank.
428
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:50,640
We're doing shit.
429
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:51,914
Why'd you got to say that?
430
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,256
You know people like my singing?
431
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:54,952
They tell me that. But not you.
432
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,508
Every time you get a chance,
you squash me like a bug.
433
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,238
What are you talking about, a bug?
434
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:00,594
More like a damn queen bee.
435
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,671
I bring you up there.
I stand by your side.
436
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:04,576
- Yeah, holding your nose!
- Holding my nose? No.
437
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,795
Yeah, I'm sick of feeling bad,
Hank, I'm sick of it!
438
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,030
Hey, we've got a hit record,
in case you don't know.
439
00:26:09,120 --> 00:26:11,236
We got a new house, and you got
a goddamned fur coat.
440
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:12,673
Oh, you think that makes up for
441
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,296
all the drunken whoring around
bullshit I take?
442
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,232
- It ought to make up for something!
- Well, it don't!
443
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,638
Not for a second does it make up
for crushing a person's dreams.
444
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:21,869
What?
445
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,839
Yeah, I'll tell you what,
'cause it's clear as hell right now.
446
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,869
You can take your hit record,
wrap it up in that fur coat
447
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,520
and you answer the phone
when my lawyer calls.
448
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:37,509
Oh, great.
449
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,309
He can call right fucking now!
450
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,677
"Love each other."
451
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:47,117
"Hank, I'm opening my heart to you
because I love you like my own son.
452
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,598
"You and Audrey,
you surely love each other.
453
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,600
"But you both want to be the boss.
454
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,516
"Both of you have your pride.
455
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,475
"Pride is one of the most
destructive lies on Earth."
456
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:43,951
Say, how do I look?
457
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,157
Better than you did
when you came in, Mr. Williams.
458
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,393
Thank you, Miss Warwick.
459
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,436
I ain't coming in again.
460
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,112
I'm pleased to hear that.
461
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,794
- Don. How are ya?
- Pretty good.
462
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,075
- What, you brought me some candy?
- Yeah.
463
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:09,160
Thank you.
464
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,352
My darling valentine not with you, huh?
465
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:19,109
Well.
466
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,436
Winner and still champion.
467
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:39,352
"This day in April, 1948,
my husband, Hank Williams
468
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,671
"has a violent and ungovernable temper.
469
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,637
"He drinks a great deal,
and during the last month,
470
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,109
"he's been drunk most of the time.
471
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:55,194
"The past few months, he's been engaging
in the wildest extravagances
472
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,113
"and wasting the funds
which come into his hands."
473
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:00,916
I've been wasting the funds.
474
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,468
Audrey ran up a hell of a tab
at Lowry's Furniture.
475
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,553
The owner says he wants it all
by the end of this week.
476
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:07,868
Oh, does he now?
477
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:14,160
Well, you can tell that guy that every
month I put all my bills in a hat
478
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,950
and then I draw one out
and that's the one I pay.
479
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:20,996
And if he presses me up again
480
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,194
I ain't even gonna put
his damn bill in the hat.
481
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:25,315
All right.
482
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,832
The house is a push, essentially,
but you're out from under it.
483
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,832
And, well, here's the deposit.
484
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,911
$2,250, in cash.
485
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:38,192
It's all just a bunch of papers,
some green and some bloody.
486
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:45,032
I don't see what the problem is
or why it's taking so long or maybe...
487
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,588
You talkin' to that divorcing bitch?
488
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,112
Look, it's the Opry, Fred.
489
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,477
That's what I want.
490
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,632
I always wanted it.
491
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,678
Yeah, I get it, I get it.
But it's not in the cards.
492
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,389
Okay, I'm talking to those boys down there,
but we're gonna have to prove ourselves.
493
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,313
And not just musically, frankly,
but with reliability.
494
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,038
Wel I, the hel I with them then.
495
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,873
They can go screw themselves
if they think they're better 'n me.
496
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,235
That's right. They can kiss your ass.
497
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:14,548
I'm not the enemy, Hank.
498
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,056
Now, I got things just about set up
499
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,072
with the Hayride
down at Shreveport on KWKH.
500
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,396
- Okay.
- Okay?
501
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:25,872
Yeah, for the time being, yeah.
502
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,188
All right, good.
503
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:28,912
How's the family? How's Audrey?
504
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,711
- She's... She's just fine.
- Good.
505
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:33,950
She's a demon, that's what she is.
506
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,315
Women can be vengeful
when they're not on your side.
507
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,078
Don't you worry, Fred. She's on my side.
508
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,355
She's on her own damn side.
509
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,631
We'll get to Nashville, son.
510
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,476
- Crecia, why don't you come back inside?
- Okay, Mommy.
511
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:21,838
I'll be in in a sec.
512
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:30,680
Audrey.
513
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:32,389
Hank.
514
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,473
I'm goin' to Shreveport for the Hayride.
515
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,313
I want you to come with me.
516
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,918
Did you get the papers?
517
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:49,629
Yep.
518
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,716
You get the house money?
519
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:54,994
Uh-huh.
520
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,232
Come on, Auds.
521
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,511
You're always, "Come on."
522
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,358
We're about divorced,
in case you didn't know.
523
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,671
It's too hard, this divorce thing.
524
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,433
Well, you should've thought about that
a long time ago.
525
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,636
Yeah, I probably should have.
526
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,236
I couldn't see that far.
527
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,237
I couldn't see that, uh,
528
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,310
fighting with you
was better than being apart.
529
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,240
People do divorce all the time.
530
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,512
Trust me, you can do it.
531
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:42,634
I know.
532
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:49,229
But, uh,
533
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,158
I married the right woman
for a man like me,
534
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,636
and I ain't ready to say goodbye.
535
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,191
I don't exactly know what that means.
536
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,119
I need you with me, is what it means.
537
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:13,752
Besides, don't I look good?
538
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,712
Mmm-hmm.
539
00:34:18,240 --> 00:34:19,798
You look okay.
540
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:21,599
I look okay.
541
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:25,868
Is Lillie goin'?
542
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:28,315
Uh-uh.
543
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,038
You think
you could treat me right, then?
544
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:35,839
Quit drinkin'?
545
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:39,989
Yes, I do.
546
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:42,959
But you can't.
547
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,112
I can try.
548
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,597
Come with me, Audrey.
549
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:53,798
I'm afraid to.
550
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,193
I love you.
551
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:00,995
Yeah.
552
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,389
You gonna quit fighting me
about singing together?
553
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,998
Well, yeah. Yes, I am.
554
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,199
You mean it.
555
00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:34,039
I mean it.
556
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:58,189
Hey.
557
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:02,393
Mornin', darlin'.
558
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,072
How'd the road go?
559
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:11,114
You all right?
560
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,272
I'm pretty beat.
561
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,352
I'm sorry I woke you.
562
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:16,913
You didn't.
563
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,714
I haven't been sleeping worth a damn.
564
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:23,879
I know about that.
565
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:25,313
Nah, I haven't.
566
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:33,748
Mmm.
567
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:35,833
Hmm.
568
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:41,955
Hank.
569
00:37:44,240 --> 00:37:45,753
Hmm.
570
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,273
- You listening?
- Hmm.
571
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:53,678
Um, kinda.
572
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,511
I'm driftin' off, though.
573
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,508
Well, I was gonna tell you somethin'.
574
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:02,160
Hmm.
575
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,158
You hearing me?
576
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:10,953
Hmm.
577
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,996
You're gonna be a daddy.
578
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:26,799
Hmm.
579
00:38:35,720 --> 00:38:37,073
Audrey Mae.
580
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,913
My God. We're gonna have a baby?
581
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:47,913
Mmm-hmm.
582
00:38:49,240 --> 00:38:50,832
- Really?
- Really.
583
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,239
I can't tell.
584
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:00,958
Well, you will.
585
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,753
- Oh, Audrey, I love you.
- And I love you.
586
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,478
This is gonna be great.
587
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,430
It's gonna be great!
588
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,709
You know, he's gonna have a real dad.
589
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:23,869
Yeah.
590
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,599
No, not like I had. Not like it was for me.
591
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:28,754
He's gonna have family.
592
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,397
Well, how do you know it's a boy?
593
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:35,712
Well, whatever it is,
he's gonna have a real family.
594
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,955
Fred wants me to head up Cincinnati
for a session.
595
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,394
Yeah, when?
596
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:44,549
Next week.
597
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:45,914
I'm good.
598
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:50,873
Look, thing is,
599
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:56,393
uh, Fred wants me to try out
some other boys to back me up on this one.
600
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,630
What the hell...
What'd you tell the man?
601
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,428
His call.
602
00:40:02,720 --> 00:40:04,438
I don't like that much.
603
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:08,274
Well, I didn't figure you would,
but, uh, that's the way it's gotta be.
604
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,956
Well, maybe you don't need us at all.
605
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:12,576
Look, it don't mean nothin'.
606
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,830
It's just that Red Foley's band's
already up there
607
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:16,478
and Fred wants a record right away.
608
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:17,999
I see. It don't mean nothin'.
609
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,912
I don't need any shit, Shag.
610
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,479
Well, me neither.
611
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,718
What's he got in mind?
612
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,597
I wanna try Lovesick.
613
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,353
He ain't gonna like that.
You didn't even write it.
614
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:35,839
Well, that's true.
615
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:39,672
But I made it mine now.
616
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:41,313
All righty right.
617
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:45,395
Hey, Fred. We did a couple for you.
I got one for me.
618
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,040
I wanna do Lovesick. Right, boys?
619
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:52,115
Well, hell, screw you guys.
620
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:56,318
Hank, that song is painful,
and not in the right way.
621
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:57,515
It's out of meter.
622
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,234
You hang onto some of those notes
too damn long.
623
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,278
Well, when I find a note I like,
I like holdin' on to it.
624
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,200
Listen to me. I'm on the Hayride.
625
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:11,475
I sing that song, I walk off the stage,
I throw my hat back on the stage.
626
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:13,473
The hat gets an encore.
627
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:14,993
Come on, now.
628
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,394
All right. I'm getting a cup of coffee.
You got 15 minutes.
629
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,033
Thank you, sir.
630
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,588
All right, boys, Lovesick Blues.
Let's keep it simple.
631
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,114
No need to worry, Hank.
Isn't all this shit simple?
632
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:41,469
I got a feeling
called the blues, oh Lord
633
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,750
Since my baby said goodbye
634
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,232
Lord, I don't know what I'll do
635
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,559
All I do is sit and sigh...
636
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:52,834
I'll tell you somethin'.
637
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:53,955
I ain't buyin'.
638
00:41:56,720 --> 00:41:59,109
Gonna have a burger there with the ketchup?
639
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:00,394
Yes, I am.
640
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,836
- Hey, Sammy, you get there yet?
- No.
641
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,519
I didn't start from the back.
642
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,036
Well, I guess in high school
you still read front to back, huh?
643
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:10,439
That's funny, Hank.
644
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:12,033
You ain't that much older, you know.
645
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,315
I was born older than you, Sammy.
646
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:21,518
Take a look at this.
647
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:23,959
Look at it.
648
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:43,549
Now, I'll tell you somethin'.
649
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,558
And this ain't bull.
650
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:47,949
If this don't get me to the Opry...
651
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,231
I'm gonna give it up.
652
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:53,720
No shit.
653
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:56,957
They'll have to come find me on a boat
full of bass and come beggin'!
654
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:58,040
What they'll have to do.
655
00:42:58,120 --> 00:42:59,120
- Hank.
- Oscar!
656
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,536
What, somebody been chasing you or what?
657
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:02,675
It's Audrey.
658
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,320
- She all right?
- Yeah, yeah. You comin'?
659
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:07,796
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
660
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,598
Well, okay then! All right!
661
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:11,154
Hey, I told you I ain't buyin'.
662
00:43:11,240 --> 00:43:14,232
Hey, Sammy,
keep a hold of that magazine, okay?
663
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,309
Doc. Everything all right?
664
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:41,313
Congratulations.
665
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,118
You have a son, Mr. Williams.
666
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,395
- I... I do?
- You do.
667
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,232
How's Mama?
668
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:48,320
She's good. She's strong.
669
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:49,536
- She all right?
- Yeah, yeah.
670
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,755
- And the boy, well, he's healthy, and...
- Yeah?
671
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:52,840
Big.
672
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:54,711
- He's big?
- Over 10 pounds.
673
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,199
- Well...
- Biggest this year.
674
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:57,435
Oh, he's a hoss, huh?
675
00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:58,635
That's the truth.
676
00:43:58,720 --> 00:44:01,109
Well, thank you, Doc. Thank you so much.
677
00:44:01,240 --> 00:44:02,468
- Absolutely.
- Thank you.
678
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,496
We'll have her ready for you
to see in about 15 minutes.
679
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:05,576
- Yes, sir. All right.
- All right.
680
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:06,720
I'm gonna need my hand back.
681
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:07,856
Okay, all right, I'll let you go.
682
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:09,632
- All right. Sure.
- Okay. Thank you, sir.
683
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,238
All right, now.
684
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,436
Daddy's here. Daddy's here.
685
00:44:25,720 --> 00:44:27,995
It's all right. It's all right.
686
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:30,160
Shh.
687
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,357
It's all right.
688
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:39,953
Daddy's here.
689
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:46,951
I wouldn't let my dear savior in
690
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,633
Then Jesus came
691
00:44:51,720 --> 00:44:55,156
Like a stranger in the night
692
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,517
Praise the Lord
693
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:01,955
I saw the light
694
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:09,039
I saw the light
695
00:45:09,720 --> 00:45:12,678
No more darkness
696
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:16,112
No more night
697
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,117
Now I'm so happy
698
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,398
No sorrow in sight
699
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,197
Praise the Lord
700
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,953
I saw the light
701
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,112
He was sleeping
pretty good there for a few days.
702
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,118
I guess they finally put the batteries in.
703
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,110
He sure likes his mama.
704
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:55,594
Hmm.
705
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,870
I'm going to the Opry, Auds.
706
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:09,831
Of course you are, honey.
707
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:14,432
I mean now.
708
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:39,436
Well, how'd he get past
Jack Stapp and that gang?
709
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:44,397
Oscar and Fred swore
I'd keep my nose clean.
710
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:46,598
I've been sober.
711
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,591
Well, I ought to be there.
712
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,550
I ought to be there, Hank.
713
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:55,877
But I can't, can I?
714
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,396
This peanut's too little.
715
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:04,438
It's not right.
716
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:06,431
I know. I know, honey.
717
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:08,834
I know.
718
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:10,679
I'm sorry.
719
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,199
It suddenly just happened that fast?
720
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,750
Not fast enough for me.
721
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:24,073
I'm walking the floor over you
722
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:29,513
I can't sleep a wink, that is true
723
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,355
I'm hoping and I'm praying
724
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,396
As my heart breaks right in two...
725
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:37,595
Hank.
726
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:39,749
How you doing, son?
727
00:47:40,240 --> 00:47:42,117
- Pretty fair.
- Don't worry,
728
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:43,880
they can kill you, but they can't eat you.
729
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:46,957
Strangely comforting.
730
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:48,759
I'm real proud of you, Hank.
731
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:50,592
I say that as a friend.
732
00:47:50,720 --> 00:47:53,154
- Well, I wouldn't be here without you, Pappy.
- Well.
733
00:47:53,240 --> 00:47:55,037
It's everything I ever wanted.
734
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:56,872
Well, soon as he's done,
735
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,080
there's gonna be three commercials,
and then it's you.
736
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,156
Foley's boys are backing you.
737
00:48:01,240 --> 00:48:02,958
They're down the hall.
738
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,432
- Jim.
- Fred.
739
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,875
Hank, Jim Denny, manager of the Opry.
740
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:09,951
Yes, sir. Thank you.
741
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,317
Sure. Good luck.
742
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,639
...just food and drinks and everything.
743
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:24,440
- You guys get a little hungry...
- Boys.
744
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:26,553
- Hey, Hank.
- Hey.
745
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:27,709
Hank.
746
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:31,835
Hank.
747
00:48:33,720 --> 00:48:34,869
Jerry.
748
00:48:38,720 --> 00:48:39,776
Ladies and gentlemen,
749
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:42,234
tonight's big-name guest
is making his first appearance
750
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,197
on the Prince Albert Grand Ole Opry.
751
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,556
Let's give a rousing welcome
to the Lovesick Blues boy,
752
00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:49,278
Mr. Hank Williams!
753
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,794
I got a feelin' called the blues
754
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,872
Oh, Lord, since my baby said goodbye
755
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,112
Lord, I don't know what I'll do
756
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,796
All I do is sit and sigh, oh Lord
757
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,634
That last long day she said goodbye
758
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:17,351
Well, Lord, I thought I would cry
759
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:21,550
She'll do me, she 'll do you
She's got that kind of lovin'
760
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,710
Lord, I love to hear her when she calls me
761
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,712
Sweet daddy
762
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,950
Such a beautiful dream
763
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,833
I hate to think it all over
764
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,589
I lost my heart, it seems
765
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:40,349
I've grown so used to you somehow
766
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:44,309
Well, I'm nobody's sugar daddy now
767
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,630
And I'm lonesome
768
00:49:46,720 --> 00:49:48,711
I got the lovesick blues
769
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:52,957
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love
770
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:54,917
With a beautiful gal
771
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:57,715
That's what's the matter with me
772
00:49:57,960 --> 00:49:59,837
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love
773
00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:01,797
With a beautiful gal
774
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,950
But she don't care about me
775
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:07,195
Lord, I've tried and I've tried
776
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:08,679
To keep her satisfied
777
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:11,672
But she just wouldn't stay
778
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:15,595
So now that she is leavin'
779
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,515
This is all I can say
780
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:23,070
I got a feelin' called the blues, oh Lord
781
00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:25,515
Since my baby said goodbye
782
00:50:26,720 --> 00:50:29,678
Lord, I don't know what I'll do
783
00:50:30,240 --> 00:50:33,357
I lost my heart, it seems
784
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:37,592
I've grown so used to you somehow
785
00:50:37,720 --> 00:50:41,110
Well, I'm nobody's sugar daddy now
786
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,634
And I'm lonesome
787
00:50:43,720 --> 00:50:47,554
I got the lovesick blues
788
00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:15,319
Glen Burnie, Maryland,
789
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,336
where local law enforcement
and the Air Force have turned up
790
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:19,271
some unusual evidence,
which may shed light
791
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,999
on the recent flying saucer sightings.
792
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:24,431
Baseball's greatest manager, Connie Mack,
793
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,597
was given a massive
ticker tape parade on Broadway.
794
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,113
Fifty years of managing!
795
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:34,756
And Grand Ole Opry performers
Roy Acuff, Minnie Pearl
796
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,638
and young heartthrob, Hank Williams,
have been on a tour
797
00:51:37,720 --> 00:51:39,438
of US airbases in Germany.
798
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,912
Here's Hank and his wife, Audrey,
moving into a new house
799
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,833
on Franklin Road in Nashville, Tennessee.
800
00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:50,111
Good luck, young lovers!
801
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:06,191
Santa baby
802
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:11,308
Just slip a sable under the tree for me
803
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:13,554
Merry Christmas, Fred.
804
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:15,392
Been an awful good girl
805
00:52:15,720 --> 00:52:17,472
Santa baby
806
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:21,553
So hurry down the chimney tonight
807
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,231
Santa baby
808
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:34,155
I want a yacht and really that's not a lot
809
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:38,674
Been an angel all year
810
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,677
Santa baby
811
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:44,236
So hurry down the chimney tonight
812
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,195
Jesus, Hank, I've been looking for you.
813
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:11,759
What are you doing out here?
814
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:13,751
I love this thing. I love it.
815
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,160
- Come over here, push my button.
- No, you're crazy.
816
00:53:17,240 --> 00:53:18,878
I'm gonna go back inside.
817
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:20,680
All right, well, bring me a drink, will ya?
818
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,358
Well, no, you don't need one.
819
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,590
Now, can you come back inside
before you get sick?
820
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:27,351
This is inspirational.
821
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,758
She builds me up,
she brings me down...
822
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,673
Baby, I'm so thrilled
that you're inspired now.
823
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:35,696
Now, could you please
come back in and join the party?
824
00:53:35,720 --> 00:53:36,948
Hey, honey?
825
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:38,632
Did you like that necklace I got you?
826
00:53:38,720 --> 00:53:40,676
- Yeah, I love it.
- Do ya?
827
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:41,875
Yeah.
828
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:43,951
Well, come over here and push my button.
829
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,076
No way. It's freezing, baby.
830
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:48,555
- Forget it, then!
- What, so now you're gonna be mad?
831
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:50,631
- No, I'm not mad.
- Okay, well, good,
832
00:53:50,720 --> 00:53:52,576
'cause I'm gonna go back inside,
and you, you just...
833
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:54,556
You keep on playing
with that button of yours.
834
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:56,576
- Well, good, 'cause I love my button.
- Well, then you keep on
835
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:57,953
lovin' it!
836
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,392
You'll meet
many just like me
837
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,074
Upon life's busy street...
838
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:11,908
Yeah.
839
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,990
Yeah, Luke the Drifter was a pseudonym
840
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:19,197
that Hank sometimes used
to record certain songs.
841
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,430
They didn't sell well,
but they seemed to offer
842
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,590
some emotional relief for Hank.
843
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,998
Hank's first record for us
was Move It On Over.
844
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,595
And then in our second session,
he recorded I Saw the Light.
845
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:33,080
And Audrey Williams, did you work with her?
846
00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:35,037
How should I say this?
847
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:39,797
We were happy to have
Decca release her material.
848
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:41,353
Miss Ragland!
849
00:54:42,240 --> 00:54:44,196
Could you take the child?
850
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,631
- Operator.
- Hi, Operator.
851
00:55:09,720 --> 00:55:12,029
Sheraton Hotel, Oklahoma City, please.
852
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,868
Well, I had me a woman
853
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:17,394
Who done me wrong
854
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:20,311
I wish I had the words
855
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,710
To fix this song...
856
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:36,440
Sorry, ma'am, still no answer.
857
00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:37,754
Care to leave a message?
858
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:41,116
Yes. Could you tell him,
859
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:44,590
"I need to talk to you,
you son of a bitch"?
860
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:49,914
- Did you get that?
- Uh, yes, ma'am.
861
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:51,069
Good.
862
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:43,513
No, thanks.
863
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,877
Afternoon, Mr. Nowlin.
864
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,116
This ain't gonna cut it, fellas.
865
00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:36,191
Yes, sir. I'm real sorry. I understand.
866
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,714
I... You see, Hank's come down
with something real bad,
867
00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:43,715
and, well, he's just too damn sick
to perform up to our usual standards.
868
00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:46,955
I don't know what's up with you, Williams,
869
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:51,033
but you're going up on that stage,
and you're gonna give these folks,
870
00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:55,636
who've been waiting hours for your ass,
a fine piece of yourself.
871
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,038
You understand?
872
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:00,592
Thank you, sir.
873
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:02,912
That the doctor?
874
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,756
Or whatever he is
that does these kinds of things.
875
00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:09,877
Well, come on in.
876
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:12,796
Let's get this over with.
877
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:16,830
I don't want to
wait a whole lot longer.
878
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:27,910
Ladies and gentlemen,
I have an announcement.
879
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:29,959
Hank Williams is here!
880
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:36,197
And he is ready to give you the show
you've been hoping for.
881
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,236
Hank Williams, everyone!
882
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:55,797
Come on, Hank!
883
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,318
Any of you folks know
my half-brother, Luke?
884
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:09,151
My good friend, Luke the Drifter?
885
00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:13,640
Hell, I don't know
where they got the Luke part,
886
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:17,474
but I can sure tell ya
where they got the Drifter part.
887
00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:25,870
I'd like to tell you a story.
888
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,795
About a family I once knew.
889
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:36,879
Why don't we call 'em William and Mary
890
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,955
and their little daughter Sue.
891
00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:46,108
Now, Mary was just a plain mother,
892
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:49,673
and Bill, well, he was a usual dad.
893
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:55,037
And they had their own
little family quarrels,
894
00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:58,237
but neither one ever really got mad.
895
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:03,119
And then one day something happened.
896
01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:07,190
And it was nothing, of course.
897
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:14,870
But one word led to another,
and the last word led to a divorce.
898
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:24,472
Now, here were two grown-up people
who 'd failed to use common sense.
899
01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:30,751
They strengthened their own selfish pride
900
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,629
at little Sue's expense.
901
01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,838
...eight, nine, 10, 11, 12...
902
01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:51,071
They sold me 13 roses.
903
01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:54,916
You know, we'll save one for Hazel.
904
01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:58,638
Thanks for doing all the driving, Don.
905
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:01,188
Sure. You want me to stick around?
906
01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:03,078
Nah, you're fine.
907
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:07,596
Hank, I've been thinking.
908
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:08,829
Uh-oh.
909
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:10,752
We've been running pretty hard.
910
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:14,469
Maybe I've been too reluctant
to speak up about some things.
911
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:17,399
You've been fine.
912
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:18,913
Whatcha gonna do?
913
01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:22,399
You know,
914
01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:25,590
my uncle told me
915
01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:29,114
Grant was drunk
916
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:32,359
every afternoon by 3:00.
917
01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:36,869
But he still took Vicksburg.
918
01:01:38,280 --> 01:01:40,271
Yeah, I guess he did.
919
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:47,351
I'll see ya, then.
920
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:48,953
I'll see ya.
921
01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:07,835
Hey.
922
01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:10,632
How long you been here?
923
01:02:11,880 --> 01:02:13,359
A little bit.
924
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:16,196
It took you long enough.
925
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:21,151
I just got off the road.
926
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:27,392
- How are you?
- How'd you do?
927
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:30,357
We made out okay.
928
01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:32,832
How's my boy?
929
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:34,599
He's okay.
930
01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:36,069
How much?
931
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:37,479
Where's he at?
932
01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:40,393
He's at the house. Where you think?
933
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,117
Billboard says we did
$11,000 paid last week.
934
01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:49,999
I heard you and Luke
had some trouble in Texas.
935
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,875
Yeah.
936
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:07,512
What is it, baby?
937
01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:11,359
You gonna be okay?
938
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:13,476
Am I gonna be okay?
939
01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:17,758
Hell.
940
01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:24,189
You know, you come home
from God knows wherever you are,
941
01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:27,952
and then we sleep together.
942
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:37,751
You haven't a damn clue.
943
01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:42,190
You did this to me, Hank.
944
01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:49,838
You're the bastard
that caused me to suffer like this.
945
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:52,919
What are you saying?
946
01:03:57,600 --> 01:03:59,909
God, you're barely even here.
947
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:04,875
You're barely even a father now.
948
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:09,317
And, well,
949
01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:13,591
you couldn't have handled
being more of one.
950
01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:21,272
What did you do?
951
01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:26,990
You can't... You can't do that without me.
952
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:28,798
Well, it's done.
953
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:56,276
Thank you,
ladies and gentlemen. Thank you very much.
954
01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:57,873
Thank you, friends.
955
01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:00,076
And that about wraps it up for today.
956
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:06,074
All right, all right,
there a little more in store, isn't there?
957
01:05:06,160 --> 01:05:10,551
I almost forgot about the man y'all
come to say hello to and rightly honor.
958
01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:12,949
He's my very, very good friend.
959
01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:16,910
One of the finest songwriters
I've ever had the pleasure to know.
960
01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:21,312
So, let's welcome,
at his Montgomery Homecoming Day,
961
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,631
a great and loyal son of Alabama,
962
01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:26,673
Hank Williams!
963
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:54,233
Hank Williams!
964
01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:04,713
Hey, buddy.
965
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:19,719
Well, hello, Montgomery.
966
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,191
It's always good to be back here.
967
01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:27,793
I thank y'all so much.
968
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:29,148
I thank you.
969
01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:33,028
I much appreciate the warm welcome
you've given to me and my family.
970
01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:34,439
My mother, Lillie.
971
01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:39,116
My beautiful wife, Audrey.
972
01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:43,359
My little lady, Lycrecia.
973
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,276
My big boy, Bocephus!
974
01:06:57,680 --> 01:07:00,558
Now, right now, I got a little song for ya.
975
01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:02,631
It's been awful good to me and the boys.
976
01:07:02,720 --> 01:07:05,234
It's bought us quite a
few beans and biscuits.
977
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:06,514
It's called
978
01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,592
Good Looking, You Got Anything Cooking,
How About Cooking It Up With Me?
979
01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:21,400
Hey, good lookin'
980
01:07:22,120 --> 01:07:24,634
Whatcha got cookin'?
981
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:29,830
How's about cookin' something up with me?
982
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:34,112
Said, hey, sweet baby
983
01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:37,115
Don't you think maybe
984
01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:42,793
We could find us a brand-new recipe?
985
01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:47,236
I got a hot-rod Ford and a two-dollar bill
986
01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:50,357
And I know a spot right over the hill
987
01:07:50,560 --> 01:07:52,994
There's soda pop and the dancing's free
988
01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:56,277
So if you wanna have fun
Come along with me
989
01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:59,318
Said, hey, good lookin'
990
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:02,474
Whatcha got cookin'?
991
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:07,551
How's about cookin' something up with me?
992
01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:09,513
Don Helms.
993
01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:24,318
I'm free and I'm ready
994
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:27,512
So we can go steady
995
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:32,790
How's about savin' all your time for me?
996
01:08:36,440 --> 01:08:38,590
I like that hotel pretty good.
997
01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:41,353
You think all hotels are good.
998
01:08:41,440 --> 01:08:42,555
Oh, yeah.
999
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:46,113
Ah, here we are.
1000
01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:48,272
Where are you gentlemen going?
1001
01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:49,952
Perry Como Show.
1002
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:52,995
Thank you, sir.
1003
01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:54,229
Thank you.
1004
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:02,640
- It was a good show, man.
- It was.
1005
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:05,473
You sure couldn't get
that damn jingle right, could you?
1006
01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:07,920
Don't you know there's 20 smokes
in a pack of Chesterfields?
1007
01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:11,191
I know damn well there's
20 smokes in a pack of Chesterfields.
1008
01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:12,952
And I'll tell you something else.
1009
01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:15,793
Ol' Hank didn't come all the way
from South Alabama to New York City
1010
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:19,435
to sing in a damn cigarette commercial,
that's for damn sure.
1011
01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:22,120
Gentlemen want another round,
or have you hit your limit
1012
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:24,316
- on soda water?
- Yes, ma'am! We do.
1013
01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:25,913
Yeah, I'm good.
1014
01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:27,832
Have a damn drink, boys.
1015
01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:29,876
Babysittin' hour's about up.
1016
01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:31,154
Thank you.
1017
01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:32,593
Yes, please, ma'am.
1018
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:34,113
Mr. Williams.
1019
01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:35,792
James Dolan from the Tribune.
1020
01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:37,472
Really sorry I'm late.
1021
01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:41,439
You don't like doing this much, do you?
1022
01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:45,116
Well, it comes with the job.
1023
01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:51,230
You know what I don't like
1024
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:56,076
is people pretending one thing
and they got something else on their mind.
1025
01:09:56,440 --> 01:09:59,955
You do what I do, you get where I am,
you see plenty of that.
1026
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:05,389
People thinking they'll make a nice pie
with a slice of me.
1027
01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:09,798
Well, I'm only looking to give people
some insight into you.
1028
01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:13,431
Why you write what you write,
sing what you sing.
1029
01:10:13,680 --> 01:10:18,959
I write what I write and I sing what I sing
'cause that's what I do.
1030
01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:22,111
Ain't much choice, really.
1031
01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:24,314
As an artist.
1032
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:26,072
That's your word.
1033
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:33,157
You are offering your fans something.
1034
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:35,310
What would you say that is?
1035
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:49,832
Mr. Dolan,
1036
01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:54,116
everybody has a little darkness in them.
1037
01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:57,474
Now, they may not like it,
1038
01:10:57,560 --> 01:11:00,120
don't want to know about it,
1039
01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:02,077
but it's there.
1040
01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:06,517
Now, I'm talking about things like anger,
1041
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:10,669
misery, sorrow, shame.
1042
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:14,756
And they hear it.
1043
01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:17,118
I show it to 'em.
1044
01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:20,756
And they don't have to take it home.
1045
01:11:33,440 --> 01:11:36,318
You think that's what they expect from you?
1046
01:11:40,720 --> 01:11:43,359
They expect I can help their troubles.
1047
01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:47,236
Now, the reason I know that
is 'cause they write.
1048
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:52,995
If their husband dies and they're left
with eight starving kids, they write.
1049
01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:56,671
If their sweetheart's done 'em wrong,
they write.
1050
01:11:56,880 --> 01:11:59,155
I don't know,
1051
01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:02,516
but I reckon they think
I'm some sort of Red Cross.
1052
01:12:06,720 --> 01:12:08,312
You can write this down.
1053
01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:13,037
Folk music, hillbilly,
1054
01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:15,198
it's sincere.
1055
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,595
There ain't nothing phony.
1056
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:22,637
Man sings a sad song,
1057
01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:24,278
he knows the sad.
1058
01:12:28,120 --> 01:12:31,078
There's, well, a lot of speculation
1059
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:36,840
about the hard lives
that western or folk singers live.
1060
01:12:36,920 --> 01:12:38,911
What do you mean, "hard"?
1061
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:42,350
Well, I mean, more like the women, whiskey.
1062
01:12:42,440 --> 01:12:45,591
If you're getting at something,
then get at it.
1063
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:49,954
There are a lot of rumors, Mr. Williams,
1064
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:53,435
that you have struggled with alcohol.
1065
01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:57,188
I didn't know you were
in the rumor business, Mr. Dolan.
1066
01:12:57,280 --> 01:12:58,759
I'm not. I don't mean to offend...
1067
01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:00,751
But since you obviously are,
1068
01:13:00,840 --> 01:13:02,512
why don't you say they're all true,
1069
01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:04,881
- every single one of 'em?
- Because that's not what I do.
1070
01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:07,952
You can do whatever you want to do,
1071
01:13:08,480 --> 01:13:10,550
but I'm done doing this.
1072
01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:43,736
Hunt 'em up, now. Hunt 'em up.
1073
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:44,829
There you go, Zeke.
1074
01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:46,273
Hunt 'em up.
1075
01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:49,918
Here we go. Hunt 'em up.
1076
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:51,319
Hunt 'em up.
1077
01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:53,754
Sit.
1078
01:13:54,920 --> 01:13:56,831
- Try gettin' birdy.
- Sit.
1079
01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:04,236
- God blessed!
- Birdy.
1080
01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:05,896
- Damn it!
- You're supposed to shoot 'em,
1081
01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:07,558
- not scare 'em off.
- Yeah, I'm trying.
1082
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:09,073
Whoa, Zeke.
1083
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:11,872
He's onto something.
1084
01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:20,677
Shit.
1085
01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:22,159
It's a coon.
1086
01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:26,195
Hank?
1087
01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:28,314
Hey, Hank!
1088
01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:29,835
Oh, God.
1089
01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:35,474
What are you doing down there, man?
1090
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:37,878
- Here.
- No...
1091
01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:39,951
Give me a second, Burr.
1092
01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:41,280
Oh...
1093
01:14:42,080 --> 01:14:43,752
My back is fucked.
1094
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:50,233
Mr. Williams?
1095
01:14:56,560 --> 01:14:58,391
Your back's not broken.
1096
01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:02,748
Well, I couldn't feel it if it was.
1097
01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:06,230
Yes, you've got quite a bit
of morphine in your system.
1098
01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:10,669
Have to get the recipe from ya.
1099
01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:14,953
How much do you know
about your condition?
1100
01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:18,751
Always had that bump.
1101
01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:23,872
Docs early on didn't want to
do much about it.
1102
01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:25,828
Well, there's a name for that.
1103
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:27,831
It's called spina bifida occulta.
1104
01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:31,111
It means your vertebrae
aren't completely closed.
1105
01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:35,077
Now, people with the mildest form
of this type of spina bifida
1106
01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:36,752
often don't even know they have it.
1107
01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:44,276
Well, now I know it's got a name.
1108
01:15:45,360 --> 01:15:46,952
It's chronic, Mr. Williams.
1109
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:48,359
It'll never go away.
1110
01:15:48,480 --> 01:15:50,198
Now, we can operate,
1111
01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:53,477
try and alleviate the pain
as much as possible.
1112
01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:59,036
Cure me or kill me, Doc.
1113
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:04,516
I can't go on like I've been doing anymore.
1114
01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:25,434
Hey.
1115
01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:30,158
How you doing?
1116
01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:36,599
I suppose you've been out
with your friends, huh?
1117
01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:37,720
Mmm-hmm.
1118
01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:41,759
At a joint?
1119
01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:43,319
No, I was at a house.
1120
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:45,428
Drinking?
1121
01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:48,153
Yeah, a little bit.
1122
01:16:52,480 --> 01:16:55,756
Exactly how sick would I have to be
1123
01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:58,519
for you to stick around
and provide a little comfort?
1124
01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:06,640
Well, a little comfort
is something that runs two ways.
1125
01:17:10,040 --> 01:17:11,678
Not in your case.
1126
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:12,909
Damn.
1127
01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:15,872
Screw you, Hank.
1128
01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:18,679
Come over here and you can.
1129
01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:20,160
Oh, yeah, I doubt that.
1130
01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:24,196
Professional like you,
I'm sure it'd be no problem.
1131
01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:28,959
You son of a bitch.
1132
01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:30,832
All you do is you go out on the road
1133
01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:33,388
and you sleep with
a different woman every night,
1134
01:17:33,480 --> 01:17:36,392
and then you finally get home
and criticize me?
1135
01:17:36,480 --> 01:17:38,869
Well, you want it all, don't you, baby?
1136
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:41,078
- You want to whore around...
- Uh...
1137
01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:43,435
...and still be Mrs. Hank Williams.
1138
01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:47,118
You know what?
1139
01:17:47,440 --> 01:17:50,876
You can keep your great Mrs. Hank Williams.
1140
01:17:51,640 --> 01:17:53,631
I'll give it back to you.
1141
01:18:01,440 --> 01:18:03,510
Baby, what are you doing up?
1142
01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:05,477
Come here. Let's get you back to bed.
1143
01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:18,198
I know I can't make D.C. or Baltimore, Jim.
1144
01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:21,238
Now, why can't we just
tell them the truth and live with it?
1145
01:18:21,320 --> 01:18:23,440
I'm sorry, Hank,
but I think we got to do it this way.
1146
01:18:23,480 --> 01:18:25,550
You're not hearing me.
I don't want to do it!
1147
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:28,393
And I sure as hell don't want
Audrey standing in for me,
1148
01:18:28,480 --> 01:18:30,391
- or anybody else at the show.
- Hank,
1149
01:18:30,480 --> 01:18:32,357
I don't see a way around it.
1150
01:18:32,440 --> 01:18:33,953
It's simple.
1151
01:18:34,480 --> 01:18:37,597
I can't make it 'cause I'm laid up.
1152
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:40,349
Now, I get the boys as soon as I can.
1153
01:18:40,440 --> 01:18:42,670
I go down there on my own money.
1154
01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:44,034
I'll make it right.
1155
01:18:44,120 --> 01:18:46,759
Connie Gay is putting these shows on.
1156
01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:48,398
Now, he and I go back forever.
1157
01:18:48,480 --> 01:18:50,256
Now, there's nobody else available.
1158
01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:52,748
I mean, I got the Opry spread
all over on New Year's Eve.
1159
01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:54,910
Toledo, Baltimore, Raleigh.
1160
01:19:00,360 --> 01:19:02,510
Says one every three hours.
1161
01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:09,951
I figure three every hour
ought to be that much better.
1162
01:19:17,800 --> 01:19:19,279
You good to go?
1163
01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:21,834
- Hell.
- Yes, sir.
1164
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:23,913
Look,
1165
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:27,151
you don't show, everybody will think
it's the whiskey talking,
1166
01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:29,475
and Connie Gay will be stuck bad.
1167
01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:32,632
And whether you like it or not,
I represent the Opry.
1168
01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:34,199
And as fond of you as I am,
1169
01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:36,635
if you want to stay a part of this,
you got to do it.
1170
01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:38,756
You need to record this.
1171
01:19:38,840 --> 01:19:40,751
We'll play it that night.
1172
01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:43,553
You always been a son of a bitch, J.D.
1173
01:19:44,320 --> 01:19:47,312
Well, that may be,
but it's 'cause I have to be.
1174
01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:50,395
But I always been solid by you.
1175
01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:06,999
Give me a pen.
1176
01:20:09,240 --> 01:20:12,038
I think I can write my own damn apology.
1177
01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:16,679
I'd really been looking forward to
1178
01:20:16,760 --> 01:20:19,274
visiting you folks in Washington today.
1179
01:20:20,240 --> 01:20:23,630
But, well, a couple weeks ago, I...
1180
01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:26,553
I had to have an operation on my back.
1181
01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:30,550
Fact is, I been in bed a couple weeks,
1182
01:20:32,480 --> 01:20:37,873
and, well, I sure am sorry
I couldn't be there tonight.
1183
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:41,797
I hope y'all enjoy the rest of the show.
1184
01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:47,113
And thanks for buying my records.
1185
01:20:49,840 --> 01:20:52,229
Audrey,
I should've gone straight home.
1186
01:20:52,320 --> 01:20:56,871
No, it's fine. We'll just have a drink,
and they will just have to deal with it.
1187
01:20:56,960 --> 01:20:58,234
If you say so.
1188
01:20:58,320 --> 01:20:59,435
Yeah.
1189
01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:05,235
Hank?
1190
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:09,389
Hank?
1191
01:21:11,440 --> 01:21:14,955
Why don't you two wait in here,
and I'll go see where he is.
1192
01:21:18,640 --> 01:21:19,709
Hank?
1193
01:21:19,800 --> 01:21:21,916
Doesn't appear
anyone's here to greet Mommy.
1194
01:21:22,000 --> 01:21:24,195
Yeah.
1195
01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:29,030
Where the hell is he?
1196
01:21:29,120 --> 01:21:30,314
What is he doing?
1197
01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:49,829
What the hell are you doing?
1198
01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:55,951
Killing bottles, waiting for
my loving wife to come home.
1199
01:21:56,040 --> 01:21:57,678
Okay, well, I'm home now.
1200
01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:00,154
Chri...
1201
01:22:02,440 --> 01:22:03,589
Hi, ladies.
1202
01:22:04,480 --> 01:22:05,595
Hello, Hank.
1203
01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:07,238
What are you... Are you drunk?
1204
01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:08,594
Are you?
1205
01:22:09,960 --> 01:22:11,856
Do you think that you could
wait till we're alone
1206
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:13,916
before you start acting up?
1207
01:22:16,200 --> 01:22:18,555
You really have no couth, do you?
1208
01:22:18,640 --> 01:22:19,755
You son of a bitch.
1209
01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:21,239
I suppose you're right, dear.
1210
01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:27,233
Now die, you God-awful tiki wiki shit!
1211
01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:46,191
Hank Williams,
1212
01:22:47,040 --> 01:22:50,555
I will never live another day with you.
1213
01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:53,428
Never.
1214
01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:06,313
That's when he moved in with Ray Price.
1215
01:23:06,400 --> 01:23:10,313
Ray was a bit younger,
and innocent in many ways,
1216
01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:14,598
and he really looked up to Hank,
as a lot of the guys did.
1217
01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:20,434
And the house was a nice place
in the Natchez Trace area in Nashville.
1218
01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:29,271
One thing's for sure.
1219
01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:32,598
Ray wasn't ready
for what Hank was bringing.
1220
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,993
I've got something
to shout about
1221
01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:44,680
A whole lot of lovin'
to talk about
1222
01:23:44,760 --> 01:23:46,478
My baby's comin' home
1223
01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:48,949
And that's what's
knocking me out
1224
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:15,358
She's so sweet
and she's so fine
1225
01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:18,235
...likes everyone...
1226
01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:22,313
Hank, can you believe
I was gonna be a veterinarian?
1227
01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:23,594
- Hey, Ray?
- Look at me now.
1228
01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:25,352
I got the best party on the block.
1229
01:24:25,440 --> 01:24:27,510
- Look at you now!
- I should write a song
1230
01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:29,511
- called Look At Me Now.
- You should write...
1231
01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:32,910
Look at me now...
1232
01:24:34,160 --> 01:24:36,720
"His conduct was intolerable.
1233
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:40,192
"He became abusive, cursing me,
1234
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:43,518
"and even striking me
on numerous occasions."
1235
01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:45,790
- That's a damn lie, Ray.
- I'm sure it is.
1236
01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:48,030
Why'd she have to go that far?
1237
01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:50,873
Well, Hank, that's divorce in this country,
as far as I can tell.
1238
01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:53,599
This says I made 92 grand last year.
1239
01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:55,477
Hell, I didn't make that.
1240
01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:58,711
House at 55 grand, three Cadillacs.
1241
01:25:01,320 --> 01:25:04,756
"In the past months,
defendant has been enjoying
1242
01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:07,479
"a life of wild extravagance."
1243
01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:10,677
Hey, Bobbie, come here.
1244
01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:12,559
Come on, get a seat.
1245
01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:25,948
I'm rich.
1246
01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:28,952
And I'm dangerous.
1247
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:37,554
Well, I guess there's worse things
you could be.
1248
01:25:38,840 --> 01:25:40,910
Says that I had an affair
with a highway patrolman
1249
01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:42,831
when he was on the road.
1250
01:25:44,040 --> 01:25:45,951
Mmm, and look at this.
1251
01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:48,076
I insisted on singing with him
1252
01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:51,516
when I had neither a voice
or musical ability.
1253
01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:55,358
How you doing up there, cowboy?
1254
01:25:56,920 --> 01:25:59,639
Just can't believe this place is yours.
1255
01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:02,677
For about another hour.
1256
01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:05,835
Was gonna build a house
over by that pecan grove,
1257
01:26:05,920 --> 01:26:07,911
but that ain't happening now.
1258
01:26:08,520 --> 01:26:11,432
Well, you'll get another
one somewhere else.
1259
01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:14,712
Somewhere else.
1260
01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:17,832
I've been there before.
1261
01:26:17,920 --> 01:26:19,592
And it ain't much better.
1262
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:26,755
You know, sometimes I wish
I was back at WSFA making $12 a week,
1263
01:26:27,240 --> 01:26:29,674
and knowing who my friends were.
1264
01:26:47,960 --> 01:26:51,350
- Hey, you know this man?
- By telephone only. He's okay.
1265
01:26:51,440 --> 01:26:53,749
I bet he's never heard one song.
1266
01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:00,711
You gentlemen may go in now.
1267
01:27:00,800 --> 01:27:03,394
- Thank you, ma'am.
- Thank you, ma'am.
1268
01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:05,915
Fred!
1269
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:07,319
Sorry to keep you waiting.
1270
01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:08,776
- Welcome, welcome.
- How are you, Dore?
1271
01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:10,313
I'm fine, Fred, you know.
1272
01:27:11,640 --> 01:27:13,278
Hank, how are you?
1273
01:27:16,200 --> 01:27:17,838
I'm all right, Mr. Schary.
1274
01:27:17,960 --> 01:27:19,234
I'm all right.
1275
01:27:19,320 --> 01:27:20,469
Well, take your hat off.
1276
01:27:20,560 --> 01:27:22,516
Sit down. Just relax.
1277
01:27:26,440 --> 01:27:27,953
How was the flight in?
1278
01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:29,553
Uh, it was all right.
1279
01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:31,716
A little bumpy over Wichita.
1280
01:27:31,800 --> 01:27:32,936
Yeah?
1281
01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:34,473
Yeah, always is.
1282
01:27:37,360 --> 01:27:40,033
Hank, I'm very sorry to hear about
1283
01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:42,918
you and Audrey having troubles,
I mean, you know.
1284
01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:45,639
The business, it's tough on marriage.
1285
01:27:45,960 --> 01:27:48,872
Well, marriage is tough on marriage.
1286
01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:52,438
- Yep.
- Yeah.
1287
01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:55,675
Yeah.
1288
01:27:58,120 --> 01:28:00,759
What do you say
we just cut to the chase?
1289
01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:02,114
All right.
1290
01:28:02,200 --> 01:28:04,634
I saw your press release
announcing our deals.
1291
01:28:04,720 --> 01:28:05,936
You fellas played it up nicely.
1292
01:28:05,960 --> 01:28:08,633
We were generally pleased
with the response.
1293
01:28:12,200 --> 01:28:16,671
Well, we're thinking of a part
for Hank in Small Town Girls,
1294
01:28:17,040 --> 01:28:18,758
with Farley Granger and Jane Powell.
1295
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:20,671
My wife loves Jane Powell.
1296
01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:22,159
Perfect.
1297
01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:24,192
So does America.
1298
01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:25,395
Yeah.
1299
01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:30,631
And as we discussed, Fred,
it would be no more than four weeks' work.
1300
01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:31,720
Right.
1301
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:34,513
And a salary of $4,500 a week.
1302
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:37,070
That's quite a lot of money, isn't it?
1303
01:28:38,880 --> 01:28:41,838
Well, it's not as much cash
as I can make on the road.
1304
01:28:42,040 --> 01:28:43,598
Is it, Pappy?
1305
01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:47,834
Well, I'm sure between Fred and I,
1306
01:28:47,920 --> 01:28:51,799
we can come to an arrangement,
if we're all serious.
1307
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:53,673
So, Hank, how tall are you?
1308
01:28:55,160 --> 01:28:57,116
About the same as my mother.
1309
01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:01,991
Six feet, six-one, thereabout.
1310
01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:04,799
Is that with or without the hat?
1311
01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:06,896
Because I don't think
I've ever seen you without it.
1312
01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:08,751
Well, me neither.
1313
01:29:11,720 --> 01:29:13,392
Would you mind?
1314
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:17,356
I'd like to see, well,
1315
01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:19,838
your general look.
1316
01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:22,233
Your hair.
1317
01:29:22,960 --> 01:29:24,518
You do have hair, right?
1318
01:29:25,240 --> 01:29:26,559
Oh, yes, sir.
1319
01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:30,599
I got a whole drawer full of it.
1320
01:29:31,640 --> 01:29:33,278
I'm serious, Hank.
1321
01:29:34,360 --> 01:29:35,793
Me, too.
1322
01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:45,557
You know, I read something today.
1323
01:29:45,840 --> 01:29:47,398
It said I was a genius.
1324
01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:52,353
Why do you figure that makes me fearful?
1325
01:29:53,840 --> 01:29:55,796
Probably the load.
1326
01:29:56,400 --> 01:29:58,311
I miss them so much, Mama.
1327
01:29:58,680 --> 01:29:59,954
So damn much.
1328
01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:01,399
I know you do.
1329
01:30:01,480 --> 01:30:02,976
- I know.
- Ladies and gentlemen,
1330
01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:04,976
let me just give you the lowdown
on this next fella's...
1331
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:07,389
But you are better off without her, son.
1332
01:30:08,320 --> 01:30:10,470
She was never worth a half of you.
1333
01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:14,230
I got a little boy I worry about, too.
1334
01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:16,440
...he's got a new song out there
that he wrote for us.
1335
01:30:29,680 --> 01:30:30,680
Ha.
1336
01:30:31,520 --> 01:30:32,589
Yes, sir.
1337
01:30:32,680 --> 01:30:34,520
I got a brand-new song,
ain't never been aired.
1338
01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:36,556
Ain't never been aired?
1339
01:30:36,640 --> 01:30:38,198
No, but it just might need it.
1340
01:30:38,720 --> 01:30:39,914
Doggone it, Hank!
1341
01:30:40,240 --> 01:30:41,719
All right, boys, let it roll.
1342
01:30:47,320 --> 01:30:51,029
Well, why don't you love me
like you used to do?
1343
01:30:51,120 --> 01:30:54,032
How come you treat me
like a worn-out shoe?
1344
01:30:54,120 --> 01:30:57,396
My hair's still curly and
my eyes are still blue
1345
01:30:57,480 --> 01:31:00,517
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
1346
01:31:00,640 --> 01:31:03,632
I ain't had no lovin'
like a-huggin' and a-kissin'
1347
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:07,110
In a long, long while
1348
01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:10,351
We don't get nearer or further
1349
01:31:10,440 --> 01:31:13,716
Or closer than a country mile
1350
01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:17,912
Why don't you spark me like you used to do?
1351
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:21,276
And say sweet nothings
like you used to coo
1352
01:31:21,360 --> 01:31:23,157
I'm the same old trouble
1353
01:31:23,240 --> 01:31:24,832
That you've always been through
1354
01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:28,196
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
1355
01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:29,315
Don Helms.
1356
01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:42,035
Burt Hale.
1357
01:32:10,600 --> 01:32:14,354
Well, why don't you be
just like you used to be?
1358
01:32:14,440 --> 01:32:17,830
How come you find so many faults with me?
1359
01:32:17,920 --> 01:32:21,356
Somebody's changed
so let me give you a clue
1360
01:32:21,440 --> 01:32:24,034
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
1361
01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:25,678
I ain't had no lovin'
1362
01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:30,550
Like a-huggin' and a-kissin'
in a long, long while
1363
01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:33,976
I just laughed it off.
1364
01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:35,399
I don't know.
1365
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:38,149
Hey, girl.
1366
01:32:41,720 --> 01:32:42,869
You here with anybody?
1367
01:32:42,960 --> 01:32:43,960
Faron Young.
1368
01:32:44,480 --> 01:32:46,232
Boy guesting up in Shreveport?
1369
01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:47,389
That's him.
1370
01:32:48,320 --> 01:32:50,959
And that's him right over there behind you.
1371
01:32:52,120 --> 01:32:53,120
Hey, Faron.
1372
01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:54,160
Hank.
1373
01:32:54,240 --> 01:32:56,151
- Good to meet you.
- Good to meet you.
1374
01:32:56,840 --> 01:32:57,989
Billie?
1375
01:32:58,800 --> 01:32:59,994
You gonna marry this girl?
1376
01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:02,794
Well, are you?
1377
01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:04,438
Well, not likely.
1378
01:33:05,240 --> 01:33:07,231
She's far too good-looking for a wife.
1379
01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:10,150
Well, if you ain't gonna marry her,
1380
01:33:11,680 --> 01:33:13,318
ol' Hank just might.
1381
01:33:13,840 --> 01:33:15,592
- Is that right?
- That's right.
1382
01:33:16,920 --> 01:33:18,319
Oh, Son.
1383
01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:20,391
I hope I ain't causing you any pain.
1384
01:33:21,240 --> 01:33:22,832
Don't worry about it.
1385
01:33:29,400 --> 01:33:31,072
You're like an angel.
1386
01:33:33,440 --> 01:33:34,776
My two boys over there,
1387
01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:37,155
Alton and Sonny, big fans of yours.
1388
01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:39,234
Pregnant at 16.
1389
01:33:39,320 --> 01:33:40,833
So, Jeri Lynn there.
1390
01:33:40,920 --> 01:33:42,797
Married and pregnant, Mr. Jones.
1391
01:33:43,240 --> 01:33:45,310
Well, I'm not selling her short.
1392
01:33:45,400 --> 01:33:46,719
She is pretty tough.
1393
01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:48,990
Oh, I bet she is.
1394
01:33:49,080 --> 01:33:51,753
Nineteen years old,
what the hell do you know?
1395
01:33:51,840 --> 01:33:53,637
Yeah, I could barely tie my own shoes then.
1396
01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:55,597
Well, heck, I wasn't even wearin' them.
1397
01:33:57,400 --> 01:33:59,038
I like children a lot.
1398
01:33:59,360 --> 01:34:01,032
I got one of my own,
1399
01:34:01,120 --> 01:34:02,872
and my former wife had one, too.
1400
01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:06,592
Well, you're handsome,
talented and love kids.
1401
01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:08,033
How about that, Daddy?
1402
01:34:08,840 --> 01:34:10,876
- Hi.
- Hi.
1403
01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:24,552
- Hey, Ray.
- Hank.
1404
01:34:27,280 --> 01:34:28,280
Bobbie.
1405
01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:29,715
Hank.
1406
01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:34,560
You with him?
1407
01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:36,109
Nope.
1408
01:34:36,680 --> 01:34:37,715
You with him?
1409
01:34:37,800 --> 01:34:39,552
Bobbie, what are you doing here?
1410
01:34:39,640 --> 01:34:40,834
What do you think, Hank?
1411
01:34:40,920 --> 01:34:42,672
- Oh, that's nice.
- Thank you.
1412
01:34:42,760 --> 01:34:44,557
Billie, let me handle this, please.
1413
01:34:44,640 --> 01:34:45,993
Bobbie, we got to talk.
1414
01:34:46,080 --> 01:34:47,080
Talk?
1415
01:34:47,640 --> 01:34:48,960
Get her out of here.
1416
01:34:49,200 --> 01:34:50,758
Oh, I'm sorry, darling.
1417
01:34:51,360 --> 01:34:52,918
But who do you think you are?
1418
01:34:53,320 --> 01:34:54,896
Well, I was the woman he was gonna marry.
1419
01:34:54,920 --> 01:34:56,399
- Really? Lucky him.
- Billie.
1420
01:34:56,480 --> 01:34:58,736
Maybe you should have told some
of your other girls that, Hank.
1421
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:00,751
- Bobbie.
- Well, you are right about that, honey.
1422
01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:01,880
Bobbie.
1423
01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:03,354
Billie. Billie!
1424
01:35:03,440 --> 01:35:04,440
Billie!
1425
01:35:04,560 --> 01:35:07,028
Billie, there isn't anybody else,
I swear to God!
1426
01:35:07,120 --> 01:35:08,519
She got it wrong about us, okay?
1427
01:35:08,640 --> 01:35:09,880
They get it that way sometimes.
1428
01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:12,309
"They"?
1429
01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:16,633
Boy, you're a real piece of work,
Hank Williams.
1430
01:35:17,120 --> 01:35:19,270
You know, I may just be a Bossier City kid,
1431
01:35:19,400 --> 01:35:21,391
but I got enough sense
to know you're trouble,
1432
01:35:21,480 --> 01:35:22,879
and you're gonna tear me up.
1433
01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:25,949
Billie.
1434
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:28,991
Billie!
1435
01:35:31,200 --> 01:35:32,896
We're gonna have a big ol' time
1436
01:35:32,920 --> 01:35:34,399
at the Grand Ole Opry tonight!
1437
01:35:34,480 --> 01:35:36,710
That's right. We got quite a lineup.
1438
01:35:36,800 --> 01:35:39,792
We've got Bob Mayfield,
we've got Minnie Pearl,
1439
01:35:39,920 --> 01:35:42,275
and Hank Williams!
1440
01:35:44,040 --> 01:35:45,871
So, let's put our hands together.
1441
01:35:45,960 --> 01:35:48,793
Let's do a live and lively rousing welcome.
1442
01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:00,680
Hank?
1443
01:36:06,440 --> 01:36:07,475
Hank.
1444
01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:12,518
Hey, Jim.
1445
01:36:12,840 --> 01:36:13,840
Hank.
1446
01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:20,036
You want something? Cup of coffee?
1447
01:36:20,120 --> 01:36:21,155
No, thanks.
1448
01:36:22,560 --> 01:36:23,754
Where's Ray?
1449
01:36:24,680 --> 01:36:25,874
He moved out.
1450
01:36:29,320 --> 01:36:31,960
I don't want to know where you were
or why you weren't at the show.
1451
01:36:32,040 --> 01:36:33,678
- I'm sorry, J.D.
- I'm sure.
1452
01:36:33,760 --> 01:36:34,988
But sorry don't mean shit.
1453
01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:36,149
We're grown men.
1454
01:36:36,240 --> 01:36:37,275
Oh, I see.
1455
01:36:37,360 --> 01:36:39,112
Should I be taking notes on this lesson?
1456
01:36:39,200 --> 01:36:41,998
Opry's a brand
and you're pissing on it, Hank.
1457
01:36:42,080 --> 01:36:44,435
It means something to a lot of people.
1458
01:36:44,520 --> 01:36:46,317
Music, family.
1459
01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:47,594
Money?
1460
01:36:48,440 --> 01:36:50,749
You want to play the artist on me?
All right, then.
1461
01:36:50,840 --> 01:36:52,592
An artist like you,
1462
01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:54,136
a man who can make folks
forget their troubles,
1463
01:36:54,160 --> 01:36:55,559
you have an obligation.
1464
01:36:58,440 --> 01:37:00,476
You been working me pretty hard, J.D.
1465
01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:04,758
I mean, 100 out of 119 days on the road.
1466
01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:06,757
I don't really need any more obligations.
1467
01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:08,074
Nobody does.
1468
01:37:08,840 --> 01:37:10,990
I'm not trying to be disrespectful, Hank.
1469
01:37:11,080 --> 01:37:12,096
I'm not trying to put you down.
1470
01:37:12,120 --> 01:37:13,120
Don't you worry.
1471
01:37:13,200 --> 01:37:14,474
I gave up giving a shit
1472
01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:16,256
about what other people think
a long time ago.
1473
01:37:16,280 --> 01:37:17,679
All right, then.
1474
01:37:17,760 --> 01:37:18,909
Here's the deal.
1475
01:37:19,560 --> 01:37:22,279
August 9th in your regular Opry spot,
1476
01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:25,557
and August 10th
an Opry-sponsored show in Knoxville.
1477
01:37:30,040 --> 01:37:31,758
Sure, all right, okay.
1478
01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:34,393
I'm imploring you.
1479
01:37:34,760 --> 01:37:36,671
Don't let me down.
1480
01:37:37,080 --> 01:37:39,514
They'll get their money's worth, sir.
1481
01:37:40,120 --> 01:37:41,120
Okay.
1482
01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:44,835
Of course I mean, Cousin Minnie Pearl!
1483
01:37:51,800 --> 01:37:53,597
Howdy!
1484
01:38:03,160 --> 01:38:05,879
Jambalaya hit number one today,
you know that?
1485
01:38:08,960 --> 01:38:10,393
I had to do it, Red.
1486
01:38:10,480 --> 01:38:12,357
I had to let Hank go.
1487
01:38:32,600 --> 01:38:33,600
Hello?
1488
01:38:34,320 --> 01:38:36,595
Oh, hey, it's Hank.
1489
01:38:36,720 --> 01:38:38,073
Hey, Hank, it's Sonny.
1490
01:38:38,160 --> 01:38:39,912
Oh, hey, Sonny.
1491
01:38:40,000 --> 01:38:41,319
Uh, is your sister around?
1492
01:38:44,920 --> 01:38:47,514
No, I don't know where she is.
1493
01:38:49,800 --> 01:38:52,155
Hey, Sonny, help me out, will you?
1494
01:38:52,360 --> 01:38:53,395
Sure.
1495
01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:56,399
Thanks, man.
1496
01:39:14,200 --> 01:39:15,349
Hello.
1497
01:39:18,360 --> 01:39:20,351
Bobbie, it's me.
1498
01:39:22,800 --> 01:39:23,994
Hey, Hank.
1499
01:39:26,680 --> 01:39:27,874
Hey.
1500
01:39:31,200 --> 01:39:33,589
Listen, I was thinking,
why don't you pack a bag,
1501
01:39:33,680 --> 01:39:36,797
and I'll come by in about a half-hour?
1502
01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:41,513
Where are we going?
1503
01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:44,119
Uh, Lake Martin.
1504
01:39:44,520 --> 01:39:46,158
A lodge at Kowaliga Bay.
1505
01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:48,398
It belongs to a pal of mine.
1506
01:39:50,360 --> 01:39:51,429
What do you say?
1507
01:39:57,200 --> 01:39:58,349
Make it an hour.
1508
01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:18,433
Bobbie?
1509
01:40:28,120 --> 01:40:29,269
Oh, Bobbie.
1510
01:40:30,440 --> 01:40:32,158
You're drunker than ol' Hank.
1511
01:40:33,680 --> 01:40:35,079
Hank...
1512
01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:37,478
I'm not drunk.
1513
01:40:38,360 --> 01:40:40,590
- No?
- No.
1514
01:40:43,840 --> 01:40:45,478
I'm pregnant.
1515
01:40:48,920 --> 01:40:50,114
What?
1516
01:40:53,120 --> 01:40:55,588
What is it with me?
1517
01:40:57,760 --> 01:41:00,354
Every woman in my life has kids.
1518
01:41:01,440 --> 01:41:02,998
Every one of them.
1519
01:41:05,440 --> 01:41:07,590
Before I even got to them.
1520
01:41:07,680 --> 01:41:08,680
Man.
1521
01:41:08,760 --> 01:41:11,797
You're obviously very
attractive to mothers, Hank.
1522
01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:26,513
Jesus, Bobbie.
1523
01:41:28,320 --> 01:41:29,389
You're pregnant.
1524
01:41:33,520 --> 01:41:35,033
We could get married.
1525
01:41:36,520 --> 01:41:39,557
Baby, you don't want to marry me.
1526
01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:40,880
Uh-uh.
1527
01:41:41,280 --> 01:41:42,395
I will.
1528
01:41:42,960 --> 01:41:44,234
That's different.
1529
01:41:48,440 --> 01:41:51,671
Boy, I'm a professional
at making a mess of things.
1530
01:41:55,280 --> 01:41:56,349
Hank,
1531
01:41:57,680 --> 01:42:00,592
if we got married, things would be easier.
1532
01:42:00,680 --> 01:42:02,352
They'd be more stable.
1533
01:42:03,400 --> 01:42:05,118
And just think,
1534
01:42:05,200 --> 01:42:07,191
we'd have this little one right here.
1535
01:42:11,200 --> 01:42:12,349
Oh, Bobbie.
1536
01:42:14,520 --> 01:42:16,158
I love you.
1537
01:42:20,200 --> 01:42:22,236
But not like that.
1538
01:42:26,760 --> 01:42:27,795
Not...
1539
01:42:28,960 --> 01:42:30,359
Not that way.
1540
01:42:40,960 --> 01:42:43,269
'Sides, I'm gonna marry Billie Jean.
1541
01:42:46,240 --> 01:42:47,389
She know that?
1542
01:42:50,880 --> 01:42:52,438
Not exactly.
1543
01:42:55,880 --> 01:42:57,472
Listen, darlin'.
1544
01:42:59,560 --> 01:43:02,438
I'm gonna look after this little baby.
1545
01:43:05,520 --> 01:43:07,112
I'll send you money,
1546
01:43:08,280 --> 01:43:10,271
and I'll be its papa, even.
1547
01:43:13,600 --> 01:43:15,591
There ain't gonna be no marriage.
1548
01:43:25,440 --> 01:43:28,432
Hank, you are really screwed up.
1549
01:43:30,880 --> 01:43:31,949
I know.
1550
01:43:33,640 --> 01:43:36,234
I pulled every string
1551
01:43:36,320 --> 01:43:38,231
to get him back where he started,
1552
01:43:38,320 --> 01:43:40,390
the Hayride in Louisiana.
1553
01:43:40,480 --> 01:43:42,675
It wouldn't be the same money or exposure,
1554
01:43:42,760 --> 01:43:44,398
but at least he wouldn't be idle.
1555
01:43:44,480 --> 01:43:45,913
Hank idle, damn.
1556
01:43:46,000 --> 01:43:49,356
Before long, he had
a Nashville showgirl with child.
1557
01:43:49,440 --> 01:43:52,830
And shortly after that,
he married Billie Jean Jones
1558
01:43:52,920 --> 01:43:55,798
in the City Auditorium, New Orleans.
1559
01:44:19,280 --> 01:44:22,716
It's not just my back, baby.
1560
01:44:22,800 --> 01:44:23,800
I feel...
1561
01:44:25,760 --> 01:44:27,671
I feel like my chest is,
1562
01:44:27,760 --> 01:44:30,433
like, getting jumped on.
1563
01:44:57,040 --> 01:44:58,075
Who are you?
1564
01:44:58,160 --> 01:45:00,469
LeBeau, the promoter.
1565
01:45:02,280 --> 01:45:03,429
And you?
1566
01:45:03,520 --> 01:45:04,953
Dr. Marshall.
1567
01:45:06,400 --> 01:45:08,118
What kind of doctor?
1568
01:45:08,200 --> 01:45:10,236
I specialize in alcoholism.
1569
01:45:11,760 --> 01:45:12,909
What does that mean?
1570
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:14,558
What you got, Doc?
1571
01:45:14,640 --> 01:45:16,232
What's the man have?
1572
01:45:17,240 --> 01:45:19,470
It means
I've been there and back, ma'am,
1573
01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:23,117
and I will help Mr. Williams
to a speedy recovery.
1574
01:45:25,480 --> 01:45:27,471
Let the man in!
1575
01:45:44,600 --> 01:45:46,591
It will be better, son.
1576
01:45:56,240 --> 01:45:57,468
Chloral hydrate.
1577
01:45:57,560 --> 01:46:01,155
So powerful, they use it
to sedate circus animals.
1578
01:46:01,240 --> 01:46:03,176
It's never supposed to be
administered with alcohol
1579
01:46:03,200 --> 01:46:05,156
or to someone with a heart condition,
1580
01:46:06,240 --> 01:46:08,310
which Hank likely had.
1581
01:46:08,400 --> 01:46:10,038
Marshall,
1582
01:46:10,120 --> 01:46:14,477
his di ploma was from the Chicago
University of Applied Sciences and Arts.
1583
01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:18,235
He bought it off a salesman
at a gas station for $25.
1584
01:46:20,440 --> 01:46:24,228
And then Hank called me
and told me he was in Marshall's care.
1585
01:46:37,680 --> 01:46:39,398
How you doing, son?
1586
01:46:43,000 --> 01:46:45,150
How long we got left?
1587
01:46:45,600 --> 01:46:46,600
We can be done, Hank.
1588
01:46:46,640 --> 01:46:47,993
Just call it a day.
1589
01:46:57,680 --> 01:46:59,352
I got something
1590
01:47:00,120 --> 01:47:01,997
I want to run past you.
1591
01:47:03,160 --> 01:47:04,559
You sure?
1592
01:47:11,120 --> 01:47:15,750
Your cheatin' heart
1593
01:47:18,200 --> 01:47:21,510
Will make you weep
1594
01:47:24,920 --> 01:47:30,233
You'll cry and cry
1595
01:47:30,960 --> 01:47:34,748
And try to sleep
1596
01:47:36,360 --> 01:47:40,399
But sleep won't come
1597
01:47:42,000 --> 01:47:46,073
The whole night through
1598
01:47:47,200 --> 01:47:51,830
Your cheatin ' heart
1599
01:47:52,560 --> 01:47:56,473
Will tell on you
1600
01:47:58,040 --> 01:48:03,194
When tears come down
1601
01:48:03,280 --> 01:48:07,432
Like falling rain
1602
01:48:08,680 --> 01:48:14,118
You'll toss around
1603
01:48:14,200 --> 01:48:18,591
And call my name
1604
01:48:19,400 --> 01:48:22,836
You'll walk the floor
1605
01:48:24,880 --> 01:48:29,032
The way I do
1606
01:48:30,360 --> 01:48:35,718
Your cheatin ' heart
1607
01:48:38,160 --> 01:48:44,190
Will tell on you
1608
01:48:58,560 --> 01:48:59,913
Hey.
1609
01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:01,399
I heard you got a new toy.
1610
01:49:01,480 --> 01:49:03,357
Oh, it's a choo-choo train.
1611
01:49:03,440 --> 01:49:05,351
Are you gonna play with me?
1612
01:49:05,440 --> 01:49:08,079
I'll be right there just as soon as I can.
1613
01:49:10,640 --> 01:49:12,915
You know how much I miss you,
don't you, Bocephus?
1614
01:49:13,000 --> 01:49:15,560
Than all the ants on the sidewalks,
1615
01:49:15,640 --> 01:49:18,313
and all the leaves in the trees.
1616
01:49:21,120 --> 01:49:22,348
Hmm.
1617
01:49:23,080 --> 01:49:24,080
That's right.
1618
01:49:24,160 --> 01:49:25,798
Hey, baby, can I talk to Daddy?
1619
01:49:25,880 --> 01:49:27,233
Thank you.
1620
01:49:27,640 --> 01:49:29,551
Hey, Hank? We got to go now.
1621
01:49:29,640 --> 01:49:32,296
It's getting past his bedtime,
and I don't want him getting worked up.
1622
01:49:32,320 --> 01:49:35,710
Audrey, why don't you
bring him up to Shreveport this weekend?
1623
01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:37,279
Well, that won't work out.
1624
01:49:37,920 --> 01:49:39,319
Well, why not?
1625
01:49:39,880 --> 01:49:41,996
I mean, it'd just be for the Saturday.
1626
01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:43,559
You could leave him here and,
1627
01:49:43,680 --> 01:49:45,875
you know, we'll bring him back.
1628
01:49:46,240 --> 01:49:48,071
Well, we got plans Saturday.
1629
01:49:48,960 --> 01:49:50,188
Well, how about Sunday, then?
1630
01:49:50,280 --> 01:49:51,679
No, that won't work.
1631
01:49:52,520 --> 01:49:54,511
We're just gonna have to find
a better time, okay?
1632
01:49:55,600 --> 01:49:56,880
So, I'm gonna talk to you later.
1633
01:49:56,920 --> 01:49:58,353
Okay, hon? Bye.
1634
01:50:42,400 --> 01:50:44,496
The first task of the new administration
1635
01:50:44,520 --> 01:50:46,829
will be to review and reexamine...
1636
01:50:51,600 --> 01:50:54,320
...we have a time-out
existing on the playing field
1637
01:50:54,400 --> 01:50:56,391
on the part of the University of Alabama...
1638
01:51:02,360 --> 01:51:03,554
Do you have to?
1639
01:51:06,560 --> 01:51:08,118
Yeah, I kind of do.
1640
01:51:19,440 --> 01:51:21,032
Well, honey,
1641
01:51:22,880 --> 01:51:25,348
I'm real glad you're skipping
some of them dates.
1642
01:51:26,760 --> 01:51:28,751
Taking some time.
1643
01:51:30,760 --> 01:51:33,320
And I'm real glad
we're getting out of Shreveport.
1644
01:51:34,440 --> 01:51:35,634
But to tell you the truth,
1645
01:51:35,720 --> 01:51:38,188
I don't really want to see your mother.
1646
01:51:38,320 --> 01:51:40,072
I know that.
1647
01:51:41,760 --> 01:51:44,228
Still, at least, she'll be happy to see me.
1648
01:51:45,120 --> 01:51:47,634
Lately, people see me coming,
they want to cross the street.
1649
01:51:48,120 --> 01:51:49,792
Well, that's just not true.
1650
01:51:55,040 --> 01:51:56,393
I'm sorry, baby.
1651
01:51:58,120 --> 01:51:59,519
For what?
1652
01:52:03,320 --> 01:52:04,753
Everything.
1653
01:52:08,080 --> 01:52:10,071
A.V. Bamford had booked Hank
1654
01:52:10,200 --> 01:52:13,636
for two dates at the end of December.
1655
01:52:14,320 --> 01:52:16,754
New Year's Eve in Charleston,
West Virginia,
1656
01:52:16,840 --> 01:52:19,115
New Year's Day in Canton, Ohio.
1657
01:52:19,200 --> 01:52:21,475
Hank looked around
1658
01:52:21,800 --> 01:52:25,156
for someone to drive him in his own car.
1659
01:52:26,120 --> 01:52:30,352
And when he couldn't find any friends
to take him up on that,
1660
01:52:30,440 --> 01:52:34,274
he called a buddy of his at
Lee Street Taxi in Montgomery.
1661
01:52:34,360 --> 01:52:36,157
And that fella
1662
01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:38,511
got his 17-year-old son,
1663
01:52:38,600 --> 01:52:41,717
Charles Carr, to do the job.
1664
01:52:41,800 --> 01:52:44,837
Charles was a freshman
at Auburn on holiday break.
1665
01:53:02,760 --> 01:53:04,016
Can you take care of that for me?
1666
01:53:04,040 --> 01:53:05,234
Yes, sir.
1667
01:53:07,480 --> 01:53:09,277
Be careful with that, Charles.
1668
01:53:22,800 --> 01:53:24,438
Come here, baby.
1669
01:53:31,040 --> 01:53:33,315
I'll call you when I get up to Charleston.
1670
01:53:33,760 --> 01:53:36,115
How come I can't come?
1671
01:53:39,560 --> 01:53:42,279
Go back to Shreveport,
I'll meet you in a couple days.
1672
01:53:42,360 --> 01:53:43,713
You don't have to stay.
1673
01:53:44,960 --> 01:53:47,758
I don't see the big deal, me coming along.
1674
01:53:48,240 --> 01:53:49,514
Well,
1675
01:53:50,960 --> 01:53:52,712
it's a long-ass trip.
1676
01:53:54,080 --> 01:53:55,559
And, truthfully,
1677
01:53:57,760 --> 01:53:59,800
we might get real sick of each other.
1678
01:53:59,960 --> 01:54:01,632
You might end up going at me, right?
1679
01:54:01,720 --> 01:54:03,073
Mmm-hmm.
1680
01:54:20,520 --> 01:54:22,511
One more for luck, huh?
1681
01:54:27,080 --> 01:54:29,594
- Watch your head, Mr. Williams.
- Thank you, sir.
1682
01:54:38,960 --> 01:54:40,791
What are you smiling about?
1683
01:54:40,880 --> 01:54:44,156
Well, another reason
I think you shouldn't come,
1684
01:54:45,680 --> 01:54:47,318
I could use the leg room.
1685
01:54:49,600 --> 01:54:51,511
Drive safe, Charles.
1686
01:54:51,600 --> 01:54:55,070
He's a real SOB, but I think I love him.
1687
01:54:55,760 --> 01:54:57,318
Yes, ma'am.
1688
01:54:58,800 --> 01:55:00,840
Listen to the boss, Charles.
1689
01:55:08,200 --> 01:55:09,758
I'll see you in Louisiana, darlin'.
1690
01:55:13,840 --> 01:55:15,239
Happy New Year.
1691
01:56:21,240 --> 01:56:22,878
Ladies and gentlemen,
1692
01:56:24,320 --> 01:56:28,074
I've been in show business
for almost 20 years.
1693
01:56:31,320 --> 01:56:32,719
But today,
1694
01:56:33,600 --> 01:56:36,831
will be the most difficult task
I've ever had to perform.
1695
01:56:41,200 --> 01:56:42,792
This morning,
1696
01:56:43,080 --> 01:56:46,595
on his way to Canton to do this show,
1697
01:56:49,120 --> 01:56:51,509
Hank Williams died in his car.
1698
01:57:03,440 --> 01:57:07,956
I wandered so aimless
1699
01:57:08,760 --> 01:57:12,912
Life filled with sin
1700
01:57:13,760 --> 01:57:17,150
I wouldn't let my
1701
01:57:17,240 --> 01:57:20,232
Dear Savior in
1702
01:57:21,920 --> 01:57:24,912
Then Jesus came like
1703
01:57:25,000 --> 01:57:28,231
A stranger in the night
1704
01:57:29,080 --> 01:57:32,152
Praise the Lord
1705
01:57:32,240 --> 01:57:35,118
I saw the light
1706
01:57:35,800 --> 01:57:38,837
I saw the light
1707
01:57:39,080 --> 01:57:42,390
I saw the light
1708
01:57:42,480 --> 01:57:45,790
No more darkness
1709
01:57:45,880 --> 01:57:48,792
No more night
1710
01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:52,551
Now I'm so happy
1711
01:57:52,640 --> 01:57:55,712
No sorrow in sight
1712
01:57:55,800 --> 01:57:57,518
Praise the Lord...
1713
01:57:57,600 --> 01:58:00,114
Montgomery, Alabama,
1714
01:58:00,200 --> 01:58:02,919
January 4th, 1953.
1715
01:58:04,000 --> 01:58:06,594
Hank Williams laid to rest in Dixie.
1716
01:58:06,680 --> 01:58:09,877
I saw the light...
1717
01:58:09,960 --> 01:58:12,315
The top singer-songwriter died tragically
1718
01:58:12,400 --> 01:58:14,231
of severe heart damage.
1719
01:58:15,120 --> 01:58:17,236
He was 29 years old.
1720
01:58:17,920 --> 01:58:19,956
In only six years of recording,
1721
01:58:20,040 --> 01:58:22,076
he had a remarkable 36 hit songs
1722
01:58:22,160 --> 01:58:24,993
and sold over 11 million records.
1723
01:58:26,560 --> 01:58:31,076
Fans, friends and family
gave the boy from Mount Olive
1724
01:58:31,160 --> 01:58:33,594
the state's largest send-off ever,
1725
01:58:33,680 --> 01:58:35,477
accompanied by the mournful sounds
1726
01:58:35,560 --> 01:58:39,109
of his buddies' steel guitars
and weeping fiddles.
1727
01:58:39,200 --> 01:58:40,918
No more darkness
1728
01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:43,753
No more night...
1729
01:58:54,080 --> 01:59:00,519
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
1730
01:59:01,200 --> 01:59:05,910
He sounds too blue to fly
1731
01:59:08,240 --> 01:59:14,713
The midnight train is whining low
1732
01:59:15,560 --> 01:59:21,078
I'm so lonesome I could cry
1733
02:00:11,400 --> 02:00:18,192
The silence of a falling star
1734
02:00:19,240 --> 02:00:23,870
Lights up a purple sky
1735
02:00:26,360 --> 02:00:32,959
And as I wonder where you are
1736
02:00:33,960 --> 02:00:39,751
I'm so lonesome I could cry
1737
02:00:41,520 --> 02:00:48,232
And as I wonder where you are
1738
02:00:49,160 --> 02:00:54,837
I'm so lonesome I could cry
1739
02:01:35,880 --> 02:01:40,032
Goodbye Joe me gotta go,
me oh my oh
1740
02:01:41,320 --> 02:01:45,836
Me gotta go pole the pirogue
down the bayou

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see

Son of a gun we 'll have

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie
