"Armando, why do you care for the calf, when all of our money is in the herd?" "Esteban, one day my father's ranch will be passed on to my brother and I." "We will want this calf and many more like it." "I still say you care more for the baby cow than for a woman." "Yes, it's true, Manuel, but only because I have not found the right woman." "I propose a contest." "Let's race back to the house!" "I hope nothing bad happens on the way home!" "I'm riding a horse!" "Get down." "This is not good." "He's a drug dealer!" "We should ride down and help this man." "And get killed?" "Maybe he just wants to talk to him." "Holy mother." "Praying will not help that man." "Perhaps praying is all we can do." "What are we doing here?" "Your brother may already be home!" "Fuck, yeah!" "Quiet." "Come in." "Father, is this a good time?" "What do you want?" "Pardon, nothing, sir. I was just..." "Where have you been?" "We were taking the cattle to a new pasture as you asked." "What took you so long?" "There is much work to do around here, Armando!" "is there something wrong, Father?" "Leave me alone." "Armando." "Yes, Father?" "Come over here." "Armando, forgive me." "I have many worries." "Please let me help, Father." "You are so much like your mother." "She had such a good heart." "And I know your heart is in the right place, but like your mother, you are not smart." "You have never been smart." "But I am smart, Father." "Yes, of course, Armando." "For my trouble, I need someone who is very smart." "If you were truly smart, you would know that you are dumb." "Look at your fat head." "Raul!" "Raul, your brother." "It's Raul." "You arrange everything with the Japanese and then give them the merchandise." "Raul!" "Brother!" "We are close brothers." "We have shared so much, man." "Raul!" "Papa!" "Finally, the one with brains has returned!" "You're the son I've always loved!" "Fuck, I almost forgot." "Sweetheart." "May I introduce to you Miss Sonia Lopez?" "Sonia Lopez." "It's an honor to meet you, sir." "It's nice to meet you." "Let me look at you." "You look amazing." "You must be Armando." "Armando Alvarez, Miss Lopez." "Welcome to our house." "Thank you, but please call me Sonia." "And I can call you Armando?" "I would like that, Sonia." "Esteban de los Santos Escobar Chavez." "Sir." "Thank you, Esmeralda." "You're welcome." "Sir." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Thank you, sweetheart." "Raul, you have brought so much happiness to our father." "I am an Alvarez, no?" "If only we could keep the drug dealers off the ranch." "Just this morning, I was out with Manuel and Esteban, and we came across a killing." "Why was I not told?" "I saw that you had many worries." "They killed a man." "I believe it was by the Onza." "The Onza?" "Miss Lopez." "Sonia." "How nice to see you." "It's a pleasure that you're here, because here..." "Armando has never done anything with a woman." "It seems like he's not interested in women." "is this true, Armando?" "Do you have no interest in women?" "I would not say that, Miss Lopez." "I just have not found the woman for me." "What would this woman be like?" "My woman, Miss Lopez, must love the land as I do." "More than all the gold in the world, she must find pleasure in the scent of the cactus flower." "She would sleep beneath the stars and let the wild west wind caress her body and blanket her soul." "Her passions would be my passions, her dreams, my dreams." "And our love would be a great song, and the song would be true." "Armando is a ridiculously hopeless romantic!" "What woman would sleep in the dirt with him, please?" "Sonia." "Come over here." "Sonia." "Father, I..." "Excuse me." "Miss Lopez, Sonia and I, would like to ask your permission to be married." "To get married?" "You two?" "What a delight!" "The Lord has blessed the Alvarez house." "Thank you!" "For Raul and for Sonia." "Much happiness." "Cheers." "Cheers." "For you, brother, cheers." "Cheers." "So it's true?" "It says here that Raul is getting married to this woman." "It's true." "She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." "She is very pretty." "You don't sound happy, Armando." "Are you jealous of your brother?" "Jealous?" "No, Manuel, I could never be jealous of Raul." "Maybe I love him too much, and I am concerned." "Concerned?" "I don't know." "He has changed." "I think you are jealous." "I am jealous." "If I had a woman like this... I would never get out of bed." "Can I not share in yourjoke?" "I'm afraid not, Miss Lopez." "The joke was about you." "Do you ride?" "I haven't in a long time, but I would like to." "Esteban, please check on the herd." "l shall meet you there later." "Of course." "You ride well, Miss Lopez." "Good control, nice poise." "That is a difficult horse." "You have ridden before." "From the time I could walk, my father put me on the back of a horse." "I see." "When I was nine, my father was murdered in his bed." "They took me to the city to live with my uncle." "Interesting." "My uncle was very mean." "He drank rubbing alcohol, and he hit me and burned me with his cigarettes." "Interesting." "I ran away from him when I was 1 2." "But he found me, and beat me, and said he would marry me when I was grown up." "Interesting." "And your uncle?" "I have not seen him in a long time." "I have to ask you something." "Do you love Raul?" "Raul has been very good to me, and I have been good to him." "Do you love him?" "I must know." "A race. I will show you how well l ride!" "Giddy up!" "Not if I can help it!" "This is beautiful." "What is this place?" "It is called" "The Pond of the Seven Tears." "I swam here as a boy." "It is the most beautiful spot I have seen in all my life." "How did you know to ride here?" "The wind told me." "Sometimes the wind talks to me." "This is the place my mother was killed." "This was her favorite place." "I have much work to do." "Go then. I am only drying my hair." "Okay, but do not be long." "There are bandits in these hills." "Armando will protect me." "Yes." "My son, this was my father's rifle." "He passed it on to me when I was a boy, and today I am giving it to you." "Go." "You must build our ranch." "Armando." "What do you want?" "Armando, give me the gun." "Boy, give me the gun!" "No!" "Let me go!" "No!" "Go!" "Don't touch me!" "She loved coming here." "I am sorry." "It was a long time ago." "I could stay here forever." "I doubt that very much." "Why is that?" "There is nothing to buy." "No shops, no expensive clothes, no fancy shoes." "This is not Dallas." "is that what you think of me?" "Someone who needs fancy shoes?" "It does not matter what I think of you." "You think I'm some kind of cheap woman who is only interested in Raul's money?" "Are you?" "You never answered my question." "What question?" "Do you love my brother?" "Take me back, now!" "Answer the question!" "Bongos!" "Congas?" "Guns." "Where?" "Over that hill." "Hunters?" "Those are not hunters." "Perhaps someone is hurt." "It is not our concern." "You are a coward." "A coward!" "Sonia!" "No!" "Sir?" "Sir?" "Please..." "God forgive me." "Easy." "We'll take you to the hospital." "Let him die." "He is missing a hand." "Give me your water, Armando." "Waste water on that?" "In the trunk. lt's in the trunk." "Take it..." "Here, take this." "I know you." "You are Sonia." "I found some drugs!" "Armando, please help me put him on the horse." "He is coming." "The Onza." "Maybe God will be merciful." "He is dead!" "He was dead a long time ago." "It looks like these belong to you now." "You are a rich woman." "Don't you want them?" "Perhaps as a wedding present from an old dying friend?" "You have answered my question." "You do not love my brother." "Let me go." "You're hurting me." "I don't think you hurt so easily." "I know the kind of woman you are." "You know nothing about me." "I know that you will not marry Raul if I can help it." "Do you think Raul is so innocent?" "You lie!" "You stupid rancher." "Your brother is a drug dealer!" "You have done this!" "So help me God, if it is true, and my brother is involved in drugs, you shall never have the name Alvarez!" "I'll take care of my family." "Let the devil take care of you." "Are you so sure that Raul is involved with drugs?" "I don't know, Manuel." "I have sensed something since his return, and this morning with Sonia..." "Perhaps she is lying." "Bitches are liars." "It is true." "Bitches are liars." "But Miss Lopez is no bitch." "I like bitches." "You two wait here while I go and talk to Raul." "It is true, Raul?" "What are you speaking of, Armando?" "You are in the drug business." "I am in business in Mexico, Armando." "What's the difference?" "Raul, you have brought shame to our family." "No, Armando. I am here to save this family." "There's a difference." "You are taking this family to hell!" "Armando, Little Armando, listen." "Yes." "So I move drugs over the border." "So why do you care?" "I do not sell drugs to my people." "I sell it to the Americans." "I don't sell drugs to our people." "No, no, no." "I sell the Americans drugs, but I'd sell them chocolates if they wanted them." "But they don't!" "This is not the America our father held in such high esteem." "This is a country of babies." "They buy houses with no money." "TVs and cars with no money." "They stuff their faces like monsters with shit burgers and grease." "It's irresponsible to feed candy to babies." "No, they are not babies, Armando." "They are all adults, and they are crazy." "They only cry like babies." "The damn Mexicans are coming!" "They are going to fuck us up and kill us with their drugs!" "Fuck them!" "Fuck their drug-addicted children!" "Fuck them all." "Fuck their heroin-addicted wives who stuff themselves non-stop with pasta." "Fuck their pot smoking doctors from California." "Fuck them!" "If they can't stop themselves from shoving bags of shit up their nose, then let's make a buck while we can, Little Armando." "Yes, yes. lf it was so simple." "But instead we have been infected with greed." "We will all kill each other feeding the shit-eating crazy monster babies." "Look, Armando, this country will be strong from America's weakness." "Sons of bitches." "What's up?" "You are Raul?" "You know very well who I am." "And I know very well who you are." "Onza." "The Onza." "So, Raul, what the hell are you doing here?" "I am here visiting my family." "I am here because..." "This is my land." "You motherfucker, you think you're a big boy?" "He's really funny. lsn't he, Armando?" "Look, Raul." "I don't believe you." "You have already taken my woman, and I think you are here for something more." "The woman was never yours." "Oh, no?" "No." "And I repeat." "I am here because this is my land." "Armando." "Yes?" "Can I call you Little Armando?" "I'd like that." "Do you know what your brother is doing?" "Do you know what business he is in?" "It's very dangerous for you and very dangerous for him." "And it's very dangerous for your family." "Easy, easy." "Not all dirty, little ranchers like Canadian Slims." "Yes, I like them." "All right then, I only came to bring you this." "I think it belongs to you." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Raul." "This is going to get very ugly." "That's okay." "Goodbye." "See you around." "See you later." "Bye." "Bye bye." "Bye." "It does not seem as if this Onza wants to follow your plan." "Armando, go home." "Mexico is no place for cowards." "I live my life on earth" "The dirt is all I know I am a ranchero" "And I know nothing I know nothing" "Why does the moon shine at night?" "I don't know" "Why does the bird take flight?" "I don't know" "Why does the turtle move so slow?" "I don't know" "Come on!" "Why do men hate each other?" "I don't know" "Why does the brother fight the brother?" "I don't know" "Why does the blue flower grow?" "I don't know" "How can I know anything?" "What is there to know?" "Long live Mexico!" "I am a man of the land I am a ranchero" "And I don't know I live a simple life I'm friends with the cows I have no thoughts I am a ranchero" "I don't know" "And I don't know" "Why is a woman so warm?" "Why is my bed so cold?" "These are the questions I'll never know I'm a ranchero" "And I don't know" "The only thing I'll ever know for certain ls love" "Look at that." "Holy Mary, a white cat." "This is a rare thing." "Let me kill it." "You cannot kill this." "He is here for a reason." "Yes, so that I can shoot him." "I do not know the reason, but I believe it has something to do with me." "Look at this country." "Always such beauty." "Why is there so much pain?" "Esteban slept on a rock last night." "I slept on a bottle of tequila." "What is this?" "I do not know." "I don't like this." "FEDERAL police" "You two stay here." "Be careful." "Armando Alvarez?" "Yes." "That is my name." "I am Vincent Blancardo." "I was friend of your father's in the old days." "You were the one who found my mother." "Yes, many years ago." "Armando, these men are from America." "They are with the DEA." "Yes, how can I help you?" "No, sir." "I don't speak American." "Armando, I need you to help me." "Of course." "We know that your brother is a drug dealer." "We also know that he is here to take over the territory of the Onza." "I don't think I can help you, Mr..." "Parker." "The name is Parker." "I think you can help me." "Listen, you piece of shit." "I make one call, and I can get 1 0 helicopters to come up over that hill and turn your ranch into a lit fart." "So you think about that." "It is better this way, Armando." "Talk to Raul." "Find out for this man." "Now go find out." "Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank you all for coming today." "Tomorrow will be a great day for the Alvarez family." "It's a pleasure to share it with all of you." "My sister, Carmen, has come from Guadalajara." "My other sister, Margarite, has come from Puerto Vallarta." "My cousin, Hernan, and his wife, Doleta." "My friends for life." "Of course, Sheila from Atlanta!" "Tomorrow will be a double celebration." "The return of my son, Raul, to his land." "Also, he brought home this precious woman with whom he gets to have sex." "I propose a toast to Sonia." "For Sonia!" "Friends." "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "For Sonia." "Cheers!" "I'd also like to propose a toast and thank those who have come from so far." "But I would like to specially thank someone, someone who many of you have often called stupid, imbecile, fat head, but he's a guy with a big heart." "I propose a toast for my brother." "For your happiness, Armando." "Well, Armando?" "You aren't going to toast to your brother's happiness?" "Yes." "To Raul's happiness." "May you enjoy all of life's pleasure." "Even if it means the destruction of this family!" "Stop, Armando!" "Please!" "It hurts me to say it, but tomorrow I do not wish for you to be at your brother's wedding." "Do you understand me?" "Get out!" "As you wish." "Armando..." "Let him go!" "Armando!" "Let me talk to him." "You stay with your guests." "Armando." "Go back inside, Sonia." "Go back to your people." "Don't make trouble, Armando." "Do you think I like that Raul is mixed up in this business?" "It is your business too." "We can change him." "But I need your help." "Armando, there's something you need to know." "What is it that I must know?" "This drug dealer they call the Onza." "He is my uncle." "I understand." "He will never stop until he has what he wants." "You come from trouble, and you carry it with you." "Then save us." "Save your brother." "Save your family." "Save me." "Some things are beyond saving." "La" "La La" "La La La La La" "La" "La La" "La La La La La" "La La" "La" "La La" "La" "Father." "Raul, who did this?" "Was it Armando?" "Easy, Dad, don't talk." "Don't die on me." "Armando was right." "He was dead the day we came to his house." "Hold on, Papa..." "Hold on, you're gonna be fine." "It has his fingerprints all over it!" "What?" "It had to be Armando!" "How the hell could it be Armando, Papa?" "Hello, Blancardo..." "The deed is done." "Sonia?" "She is alive, just as you wanted." "Good." "Raul?" "Raul still lives." "So let me get this right... I'm paying the police to protect me." "Do the police not honor their obligations anymore?" "Don't worry." "He will come to you now." "We must figure out how to bring him back." "The woman." "His woman." "Sonia." "Little Sonia." "My little niece." "Fine." "Thank you." "Whoa, stop!" "Hey, Armando!" "Esteban, my friend." "Why are you in such a hurry?" "They shot your father!" "What?" "The wedding!" "Gunmen shooting!" "Raul?" "Raul and the woman are safe." "Your father, Armando." "Your father is dying." "Let's go!" "Fast!" "Armando, come." "Yes, Father?" "It is me." "Do you remember your mother?" "Yes." "I remember her a little." "She was a very beautiful woman." "She was a beautiful woman." "The most beautiful in all of Mexico." "You know, you have her eyes." "You have told me that many times." "The eyes of a small chicken." "Little chicken... I have been very mean to you." "Calling you stupid all the time, comparing you to donkeys and pigs, laughing at the way you speak." "Giving you to the circus." "Perhaps I have never forgiven you for the accident." "For this, I am very sorry." "I was hoping, when I see your mother in heaven, I could tell her that her home, and her family are well." "What will I say now, Armando?" "You must tell her a lie." "Tell her Raul has married a beautiful woman, and that she will have children and the Alvarez family is known throughout Mexico as an honorable family." "I will tell her a lie." "Because I am ashamed of the truth, Armando." "I am ashamed." "Father... I will kill the motherfucker responsible for it." "He was not killed by any man." "He died of shame." "It's Sonia." "She has taken one of the horses." "Find Esteban and look for her, Armando." "Please." "I can help you look for your woman." "But after she has been found, dead or alive, that is the last you will see of me." "Do you think the water will wash off your shame?" "Leave me alone, Armando." "I forbid you to swim in this place." "It is sacred to me." "Swim?" "No." "I cannot swim." "No one ever taught me how to swim." "Sonia..." "Sonia!" "Please, Armando, I don't want to live." "You would kill yourself?" "You are a fool!" "I cannot live." "Don't you know there is no escape for me?" "You knew what you were getting into when you came with Raul." "Yes." "Yes, I knew." "He talked of living on this ranch, and said everything would be different." "And you believed him?" "Yes." "No." "I don't know..." "Please, Armando..." "Leave me alone." "Raul does not need me." "I have not come for Raul." "I have come for you." "Armando... I am no good!" "I am no better!" "Look at them." "So peaceful." "I thought you said this was Raul's woman?" "She does not look like Raul's woman to me." "This is Raul's woman." "Sonia, why are you sleeping with this dirty rancher?" "Please, Uncle..." "Well, whatever makes you happy." "Maybe Raul has no dick." "Lately I've been enjoying all these dick jokes." "What is it that you want?" "This is the land of my father." "You are trespassing." "No, we aren't trespassing." "It is you who is trespassing on your brother's woman." "That's a good one too!" "Leave us alone." "No." "Take her." "We will see if Raul wants her back." "Stay away!" "Or I'll beat you with these hands!" "No, no, no. I didn't come to fight." "Kill him." "It is fitting that you should die where your mother died." "If you had only let me rape her, she would not have died that day." "You." "Kiss your mother for me, Armando." "You coward!" "Hold on, the gun is still hot." "Shut up!" "No." "Let the coyotes take him." "We must save our bullets for the brother." "Let's go." "Do not underestimate Raul." "Raul was foolish to come into my territory." "He will lose everything, including you." "I am Yik'in Chan Kwawiil." "The one that darkens the sky." "The Jaguar King of the mountain." "You know me as the Onza." "Yourjourney has only nowjust begun." "It is the time for your vision!" "Mexico is no place for cowards." "Save your brother." "Save your family." "Save me." "Kiss your mother for me." "I have hidden inside the mountains, and you have hidden inside yourself." "The hiding place is irrelevant when the hidden hide for no reason." "I will not be struck!" "By man or beast!" "I am Armando Alvarez!" "Again!" "I am Armando Alvarez!" "One more time." "I am Armando Alvarez!" "Good." "I am" "Armando Alvarez." "He has Sonia." "Good. I knew you would go with me." "No, Raul." "I'll go alone for her." "Little Armando..." "Don't be a fool." "I have been a fool for too long." "Hello, this is the Onza." "How can I help you?" "He has assembled a small army." "Let him come." "I am ready for him." "Just keep the Americans away." "They want nothing to do with this." "They want you to kill each other." "Good." "After I kill Raul, I will kill those fucking Americans." "Okay?" "All right." "Bye." "This Onza is such a fucking coward!" "Does he think he can come into my house uninvited?" "Does he think he can take any woman?" "No!" "I'm not going to let him kill any more of my own flesh and blood!" "This is the end of that fucking Onza!" "You know what?" "We won't allow him to fuck it up again!" "This fucking Onza is done!" "You will see that your uncle can provide you with all that Raul promised, and much more." "You're so beautiful." "Thank you." "Bitch!" "No one is coming for you." "He will come." "And he will kill you." "Raul?" "I do not speak of Raul." "Are you referring to that filthy rancher?" "Yes." "Little niece, you are a fool." "I told you a million times, I killed him." "He is dead." "The wind tells me he is not." "I'm jumping!" "The one they call the Onza." "My name is Armando Alvarez." "I am talking to you, Onza!" "I'm surprised to see you alive." "I want the girl." "Let her go and the two of us will leave." "I can kill you now with one shot." "I am only giving you this one chance." "Release the woman and I will let you live." "Armando, stay there." "Do you have a cigarette?" "Yes." "What the fuck, Armando?" "You never learned how to roll a cigarette." "I am sorry." "Damn it. I'm dying and you're giving me this piece of shit?" "I'm sorry." "Brother." "Yes?" "She loves you." "I just realized this." "Go and get her." "Damn, our father would have loved to have seen that." "Go." "Go get her." "It's over." "I'm going to meet father now." "Stay here." "No." "Please." "Mexico will be a better place without me." "It's time." "I am Armando Alvarez." "I have come for your life." "How dare you come in like that." "Just like that, without an invitation?" "You invited me when you took my woman." "You want her?" "Here you go!" "And now, you both shall die!" "Armando!" "Oh, damn it." "I always thought that when this moment arrived there would be a lot of people." "A lot of TV networks." "Police." "The army, the president, and everything... I won't be there, I won't be able to see it." "Oh, shit." "Armando Alvarez." "You are under arrest for murder and the trafficking of illegal drugs." "You will be extradited to the United States, where you will stand trial." "No, Mr. Blancardo, there will be no trial." "For my mother." "You son of a bitch!" "You are out of luck, wetback." "Not all Americans are bad, Armando." "Not all Mexicans are drug dealers." "Are you ready, Sonia?" "Yes." "Let's go home." "Bye." "Do you want to walk?" "With every season comes a change" "A season ends and a new one comes" "But now a season has come to us lt's a no good season" "A bird has wings so he can fly" "His home is up in the sky" "His home is where his heart can sing" "Unless he has a broken wing" "My whole life has been a struggle I've chased a dream within a bubble" "And now that dream is fading slow I've made a world only I can know" "is this the end of what we are?" "What we were is long ago I will not let this come to pass" "My name is Armando Alvarez ls there a world where love is free?" "A world where love was meant for me" "Must I always fight for love?" "I will save my family" "From this greed and tyranny" "God will help me from above" "Must I always I will definitely" "Fight for love!" "ARMANDO AND sonia visions of love"
