"you do your own thing in your own time". I've been using that mantra since I saw this film back in around 1987. It works for everything you decide to do in life. Kind of a mantra that takes pressure off yourself.
I tried doing that on a few jobs I had over the years and got fired.
@@omcdude64 hahahaha. Just use it wisely.
Get out you moocher's
@@unclewalt1 definitely
I think you guys missed the point. Wyatt wasn’t being condescending. The man laments never making it to LA as a youth. Wyatt lets him know regardless, he’s done well & chooses to compliment him. He admires the freedom the man found here for himself. “You should be proud”, Wyatt admires the farmer.
Love that contrast with both working on their transportation at the same time.
There are people who claimed that the movie is about two people trying to find the American Dream but fail. This scene proves them wrong. The farmer lives peacefully on his own land, where he works freely to support himself and his family. He may not be crazy rich, but he is his own free master and the architect of his own fortune. The quintessence of the original American Dream, that's still alive, if one doesn't misinterpret what it means.
Yes it’s so peaceful. Amazing really.
What Wyatt was thinking when he tells Billy “ we blew it”
The rancher was one of the inmates in Cool Hand Luke along with Dennis Hopper...The hitchhiker that they picked up along the way was one of the guards in the movie.
The horse and iron horse both have a flat. Cool juxtaposition.
@1:44......This for some reason was my favorite scene in the movie. Sitting at the outside table, the warm wind blowing. eating home grown food. Nice salt of the earth family glad to invite these very different looking people to break bread with them.....and peter Fonda's character complementing them on what am accomplishment their spread is. The look on Dennis Hoppers face @2:44 that ends with a muted but sincere smile.
Wow, 1969 ... Back when people could see the differences between them, yet could still see the similarities that connected them displaying a certain courtesy and respect.
@@unclewalt1 why? He’s saying his house is nice and he gets to live the life he chooses to live.
@@unclewalt1 you don’t seem like someone that gets a lot of compliments. They were all talking about where they were from and the guy implied that they wouldn’t be impressed of his land because they were from LA. Then Wyatt told him he thought it was really cool to be able to live off the land and not have to be hassled by anyone. He didn’t just offer it up out of nowhere, they were literally all talking about where they are from and how they live
@@unclewalt1 dude, come on. If someone says that, it’s a compliment. He didn’t have a tone like he was chastising the farmer for not appreciating what he had. Fonda was expressing his own admiration for what the farmer has built-in a colloquial kind of way.
@@unclewalt1 Bob as Pot. “Wow, Kettle. You’re black!” You replied to a comment, yet no one can reply to you? Lolz.
@@unclewalt1 I completely agree. But I wonder what the writers were trying to impart. Was the movie made from the view of a counter culture / hippy guy? Probably.
"... Los Angeles? Is that a fact? When I was a young man I was headed for California, but... well, you know how it is." *nods in his wife's direction*
RIP Peter Fonda. Obviously this is his most famous movie, and I think this is his best scene in it. I really love how he earnestly appreciates the "spread" this family has. "You got a great place. Do your own thing in your own time, you should be proud." Great line! If his character (Wyatt) stayed there he would have been content/happy. Of course, then the movie wouldn't have had any impact as contentment was not the point.
Its mind boggling how incredible 1969 was
1969 was great but 1967 was unbelievable
Yep!
I remember it well.
I recall being born that year, boy.
1:23 The symbolism is great. Both guys tending to their ‘steeds’. Both their pride and joy. Their way of life. The guys love for his horse is as strong as the guys love for his bike.
Lol! you don't shoe steers, the word you're looking for is "steeds"
Also the correlation between fixing the feet of the horse (the ranchers mode of transportation),and fixing the "feet" of the modern-day "horse."
You can't love a horse, if you domesticate it.
It doesn't want to be dominated, unlike you.
Putting steel souls on a beautiful being, shows how out of touch you are from what feels good.
People are completely lost 🤍🌿
@@TheTruthness2011 my horses don’t wear shoes. You have no clue what you are talking about. Deluded. Uninformed. It’s a pitty.
City boys showing some appreciation. Todays kids ain’t got the stuff for such stern ways of life.
Depends on the kid, not all kids are the same.
I've been saying, "Do your own thing - In your own time" since 1969 when I first seen Easyrider
Cool. i say 'Whatever gets you thru the night is all right."
after watching this great movie so many times, finally this has become my favourite scene...
incredible scene
This is the best scene in the-whole Movie.... They found the-real America!
...before they even left Arizona!
It's what he was looking for...
The simple things are better.
It makes me wonder if the rancher had a good life because of his gratitude represented here by saying grace.
Being religious is independent of living a good life. There are good people who are not religious and bad people who are, as well as the opposite. I think it depends more on the people.
Back then we were all heading to California, look what has happened to it since
@banjammy4116 CALIFORNIA. `69. I wanted to go there in `69 after watching the CELTIC-LAKERS play for the NBA FINALS & seeing JERRY WEST in that GOLD/YELLOW w/PURPLE LAKER jersey accents on it. & I was 6!
The juxtaposing of the horse having it's shoe fixed and the iron horse having it's tire fixed...
I may just name my property Easy Rider now. Great scene.
It really showcases just how much farming has changed. It used to be a way of life-surviving with your own work and the entire family involved. You sold extra produce for a little spending money for things that you couldn't make. This family farm would be long gone and swallowed up by some large corporate farm outfit. The children wouldn't stay either as they saw glittering prizes in cities. You aren't left alone by government either, as property tax and now healthcare has created a web from which you cannot untangle yourself.
sad sa hell
Your right. That and property taxes mate. Those states that have such evil: " You don't OWN shit, you are just renting this land". It is one of the greatest evils and enslavements leveled at Americans, it should be abolished. That being said, I want to opt out of Medicare/Medicaid and Social Security! And I want the money back that they have taken from me. If I could have those three freedoms, hell, I'd never look back.
@@demike3483 IKR? Miss ONE property tax payment and they come knocking. The so called death tax on farms is getting so expensive lots of people are forced to sell just to pay the tax. By design of course. You can't control millions of small, independent family farms.
I read somewhere that you're lucky to get back 10% from SS that they've forced you into giving up for a lifetime working-and the bastards tax it!
The monster has gotten big and is out to devour the pockets of freedom still left
@@jessesdomain444 It's the elimination of private property.
This is the scene I think back to whenever people ponder the meaning of the "We blew it" scene that comes later in the film. Everyone knows this movie is about "freedom", but the focus is on the obvious "freedom" of riding across the country on motorcycles. What Wyatt realizes here is that there are many kinds of "freedom", and he realizes that this Arizona rancher has found his. I think it was this rancher that Wyatt was thinking about when he said "We blew it" ... they could have had a simpler kind of "freedom" that didn't require being "rich" and retiring in Florida and dealing with jealous hillbillies.
Interesting thoughts here!
Dammit!!!! Lol you stole my thoughts, I've been saying EXACTLY this for years
or dealing drugs and hanging out with a selfish weirdo like Billie
The rancher scene, yes, but also the off-the-land hippie commune.
When leaving the commune, their hitchhiker friend gave them acid and told them that when they got to where they where looking for, to quarter the acid, but,
to appease his party-animal buddy,
Billy, Wyatt quarters the acid on a party with a pair of Parti-gras whores,
Wyatt then saw clearly that they had "blown it."
Agree. "Do your own thing in your own time." Nice spread. He respects that dude, and he should. Guy's got a woman he loves, lots of kids, lots of love. This guy ended up happy.
What Beautiful Scene !
Everytime I watch this scene, I always think the other farmer's gonna say something. But he never does. He never does
He kept things polite by not prying. It's an unwritten rule of the road that you don't ask a traveler about their past. I think the farmer sees a lot of his younger self in these two-full of dreams and trying to find their own little slice of the American Dream. The farmer relates that he got sidetracked with his, but he's long let go of any regrets and is at peace with himself and I think The Captain picks up on this and states regardless he should be proud of himself-he's carved out his own little slice albeit along a different path.
He sees what a couple of entitled jerks these bikers are, but he doesn't say anything.
Don't get me wrong, it's still one of my favorites, I love Harleys, love choppers.
@@Skyhors3 you simply didn't get it.
Nice scene
It's unreal how well behaved the children are.
"I sure got a lot of them. My wife's Catholic, you know." (2:56 - 3:00)
Warren Finnerty added a lot to this scene.
He was great in Cool Hand Luke as well!
Just occurred to me that he was one of new inmates in Cool Hand Luke..Dennis Hopper and Luke Askew were also in Cool Hand Luke as well.
Dude's wife was cute. I'd have a bunch of kids too
What a bad ass motor bike
Woah baby!
its a great film by the way
Amen.
I think this scene was filmed between Valentine and Hackberry Az. Anybody know this for certain? We travel Rt. 66 every year and I'm searching for where they filmed scenes.
What a bad ass harley, i think it's a v8 motor. It goes fast in in the descent. These are 24 inch gents ?
I think these are 18 inch gents
yess harley are god tier bike
Go on some ranchers place, he's kind enough to let ya fix your flat tire, then rev up when he asks you not to spook his horse.
He compliments your bike, and ya throw him a shitty "yeah."
Lucky he didn't send ya pushing that flat-tire chopper back out the way ya came in. 😊
My thoughts exactly but then I was glad when they kinda connected man to man at the lunch / dinner table
Is that Uncle Owen?!
Great scene in the film. Maybe the only time they were met with kindness by a non-hippie in this story, as opposed to the usual fear, judgement and prejudice. Sure, someone may look weird, but until they act otherwise by word or action, give 'em the benefit of the doubt! You may learn a thing or two! LL
Hippies where very prejudice too. Ask any Vietnam vet.
@@johnsambo9379 Judgement's a human thing, not restricted to either left- or right-wing politics. So, you're right: hippies or hawkish neocons, their objectives are not dissimilar (okay, maybe their attitude towards nature, otherwise). And, speaking of this film, various shades of "hippiedom" appear, with some destructive (Billy) and others peaceful (Capt. America). Thx for sharing. LL
At about 1:40 seconds it sounds like someone says, "Ah-ho." I was wondering about the cast or the people used....the Native American tribe of Kiowa (and possibly others) use a word if said at that speed means "Thank You." My wife is a Kiowa tribal member and this caught my ear....something I never would have noticed before I understood some of the language....is that farmer married to a Kiowa woman? Interesting anyway to me =)
If anyone knows....I'd love to know =)
@Cam Robertson Yeah, it's odd sounds like a guy saying it....someone off camera or maybe Hopper? Just an odd thing I noticed....
I did read this on a webpage, "Jack Nicholson and Dennis Hopper reportedly hung out with Native Americans they met at Kiowa Ranch near Taos, New Mexico, and napped at the grave of D.H. Lawrence in nearby San Cristobal the day before shooting this scene.
Nicholson plays George Hanson, the hard-drinking lawyer who gets them out of jail."
Odd...most Kiowa people are in Oklahoma. That's not to say there weren't some over there as they are scattered a bit but it's not a huge tribe so..
Walter Finnerty!
Warren Finnerty (RIP) Father of Barry Finnerty, jazz guitar player (Miles Davis, Brecker Bros., and many others).
He Played in Cool Hand Luke!
ピータカコイイ!
Isn't the tall old man repairing the horseshoe with the farmer John Huston?
I thought he looked like him. Didn't Huston make films with Henry Fonda?
@@RidgeRunner-lz5ko TENTACLES, GREATEST BATTLE.
So how did they fix that flat???
Patch kit. Most tires had a inner tube back in the day, including cars and trucks. Almost all laced rim(Spokes) motorcycles still do today. You would just carry a patch kit in your vehicle, its what you used to do... If they didn't have one the farmer surely did.
@@demike3483 I miss when this country made all the rolling vehicles from DETROIT. I`m from CHICAGO & right across the street from our house was a mechanic shop. STP, MOBIL, DELCO spark plugs etc. became my best buddies along with select fan belts & filters. We kids would fix our flat tires; HOT PATCH! `em & off we`d go. Miss those SCHWINN STING RAY bikes.
@@demike3483 Exactly right, you just had to make sure that there was no sharp object left in the tyre to puncture it again, so you run your hand along the inside to make sure.
Dumb question, how did they fix that flat tire? He didn't have a spare, I didn't see any air compressor in there?
Magic!!
First of all never a dump question. Most ranchers/farmers are very self sufficient.They fix/repair their equipment in the fields or on the fly. Back in the 60s most tyres had inner tubes which means if you had a flat you would remove the inner tube and (Patch) the tube. This is probably how they fix the flat.
@@mec1107 Thank you!
Still you need to pump air in the tube....
My guess would be a bicycle pump and a patch kit, all of which would've fit in their bedrolls. All that pumpin' though...
Ever heard of a bicycle pump ?
Esos se robaron unas motos y chaquetas.
Authoritarian dude. Orders Dennis to turn off his motocycle. Remove his hat.
Whoa Whoa bro, we're eating their food as Wyatt would say
Not authoritarian, just respect for the horse and for the customs. It is his land.
