An assassin on the loose. A president in danger. Only one man stands between them...

Quotes:

Hunter: Was that you shooting?::Leary: Yes.::Hunter: That's a cool gun you got there. Could I see it?::[Leary gives him the gun]::Hunter: Shit, that's light! What's it made of?::Leary: Composite. Like plastic.::Hunter: Mind if I give it a little dance?::[Leary shrugs. The hunter shoots a duck]::Hunter: That is great! That is really really great! You wouldn't want to sell it would you?::Leary: No, I need it.::Hunter: For what?::Leary: To assassinate the president.::[Hunters laugh]::Hunter: Now what do you want to do that for, mister?::Leary: Why'd you kill that bird, asshole?::[proceeds to nonchalantly kill both of the hunters with his gun]

Leary: The irony is so thick you could choke on it.::Horrigan: There's no fuckin' irony, Mitch.::Leary: Think, Frank. Think. The same government that trained me to kill trained you to protect. Yet now you want to kill me while up on that roof I protected you. They're gonna write books about us, Frank.

Sam Campagna: Frank, The President sent his limo for you.::Lilly Raines: Well, that's the least he could do.::Frank Horrigan: Good, I love public transportation.

Mitch Leary: I have a rendezvous with death, and so does the President, and so do you if you get too close.::Frank Horrigan: You have a rendezvous with my ass, motherfucker!

Al D'Andrea: I don't know, maybe I'm... maybe I'm just wrong for the job.::Frank Horrigan: You're a good man, Al. You'll make a good agent.::Al D'Andrea: How do you know? This is the longest conversation we've ever had.::Frank Horrigan: I know things about people.

[Leary makes the first of a series of taunting phone calls]::Frank Horrigan: McCrawley?::Mitch Leary: Why not call me Booth?::Frank Horrigan: Why not Oswald?::Mitch Leary: Because Booth had flair, panache - a leap to the stage after he shot Lincoln.

Mitch Leary: What's kept you in the game all these years?::Frank Horrigan: Why don't we get together and have a drink? We could talk about that.::Mitch Leary: Oh, I'd love to, but I think the less you know about me the better.::Frank Horrigan: Oh, why?::Mitch Leary: Because I'm planning to kill the President.::Frank Horrigan: Oh, now you shouldn't have gone and said that. It's a federal offense to threaten the President. You could go to jail, even if you don't mean it.::Mitch Leary: I mean it all right. John F. Kennedy said all someone needs is a willingness to trade his life for the President's, right?::Frank Horrigan: That's right.::Mitch Leary: I'm willing.

Lilly Raines: What makes you think he'll call again?::Frank Horrigan: Oh, he'll call again. He's got, uh, "panache."::Lilly Raines: Panache?::Frank Horrigan: Yeah, it means flamboyance.::Lilly Raines: Mm, I know what it means.::Frank Horrigan: Really? I had to look it up.

Mitch Leary: What did happen to you that day? Only one agent reacted to the gunfire, and you were closer to Kennedy than he was. You must have looked up at the window of the Texas Book Depository, but you didn't react. Late at night, when the demons come, do you see the rifle coming out of that window, or do you see Kennedy's head being blown apart? If you'd reacted to that first shot, could you have gotten there in time to stop the big bullet? And if you had - that could've been your head being blown apart. Do you wish you'd succeeded, Frank? Or is life too precious?

[Lilly's wearing an evening dress]::Lilly Raines: What are you looking at?::Frank Horrigan: I was just wondering where you hide your firearm. Don't tell me, let me guess.

• The Butcher's Boy - Buell Kazee

Oh, when I left old East Virginia,
North Carolina I did roam.
There I courted a fair young lady.
What was her name I did not know.
Her hair it was all a-dark brown curly.
Her cheeks they were a rosie red.
Upon on her breast she wore a ribbon.
Oh, don't I wish that I was dead.
Her poppa said that we might marry.
Her momma said it would not do.
Oh, come here dear and I will tell you.
I will tell you what I'll do.
Some dark night we'll take a ramble.
I will run away with you.
For I'd rather be in some dark holler,
Where the sun refused to shine,
As for you to be some other man's woman.

Lord, hard is the fortune of all womankind.
They're always controlled, they're always confined;
Controlled by their parents until they are wives,
Then slaves to their husbands for the rest of their
lives.
I been a poor girl, my fortune is sad.
I've always been courted by the wagoner's lad.
He courted me daily, by night and by day;
And now he is loaded and going away.
Your parents don't like me because I am poor;
They say I'm not worthy of entering your door.
I work for my living, my money's my own,
And if they don't like me, they can leave me alone.
Your horses are hungry, go feed them some hay.
Come sit down here by me as long as you stay.
My horses ain't hungry, they won't eat your hay;
So fare you well, darling, I'll be on the way.
Your wagon needs greasing, your whip is to mend.
Come sit down here by me as long as you can.
My wagon is greasy, my whip's in my hand;

Oh brother Green, oh come to me,
For I am shot and bleeding,
Now I must die, no more to see,
My wife and my dear children.
The southern () has layed me low,
On this cold ground to suffer,
Stay brother stay and lay me away,
And write my wife a letter.
Tell her that I'm prepared to die,
And want to meet her in heaven,
Since I believed in Jesus Christ,
My sins are all forgiven.
My little ones, I love them well,
Oh could I once more see them,
That I might bid them a long farewell,
But we will meet in heaven.
Oh brother I am dying now,
Oh see I die so easy,
Oh surely death has lost it's sting,
Because I love my Jesus.
Go tell my wife she must not grieve,
Oh kiss my dear little children,
For they will call for me in vain,

And here's Brother Kazee, "part-time banjo picker, full
time servant of Christ", singing his traditionnal
mountain songs, with his "trained" voice and
accompanying himself on his rippling banjo. The music
on his instrument goes twice as fast as his voice,
which is not the usual rough and untraid one of his
fellow mountaineers, but an "educated" one. His style
of banjo picking is a very tight clawhammer sound,
matching perfectly his precise diction of the words. At
the end of the 1920's, in the studio recording, he was
told to "countrify" his voice when he sang his mountain
songs... Buell H.Kazee, born in 1900 in Kentucky, was a
baptist minister who loved to sing the old songs and
play the banjo. He recorded 52 sides between 1926 and
1929, some, like "Little Mohee", were pretty succesful
but the depression put a stop to his recording career
and he went back to preach and to teach the Bible in
Kentucky. Thanks to the Anthology, he was rediscovered
by the folk revival in the 60's and cut an lp for
Folkways and another one for June Apple (re-issued last
year by Appalshop) before his death in 1976.

-On "Root hog or die" an excellent radio program as
well as a blog, you can read this article, which gives
good insights also on the Harry Smith Anthology.
-I've compiled 15 sides which focus on his clawhammer
banjo style. Some of his recordings features also
guitar or banjo played in a different style and apart
from mountain ballads he sang a lot of sentimental
songs. Some are very good but i tend to prefer the ones
i picked for you (The three sides that appears on the
Anthology will be featured elsewhere).
The Bucher's boy (or "The Railroad Boy" as it's often
called in America) is a british folk song that derived
from an amalgam of a couple of Broadside ballads. This
ballads were printed on paper and sold and distibuted
in the cities from the 16th up to the early 20th
century. They were recasting the news of the day in
song form and were very popular in the cities as well
as in the country where many became folk songs. A lot
of them were telling sad tales of murder and betrayed
love, much like the traditionnal folk ballads, and this
one ,"the butcher's boy" is a particulary sad one. It
tells of a poor girl that hang herself because of her
lover who betrayed her with a whealthier girl. The
girl's father finds a note next to her dead body where
she asks to be buried in a grave with a dove placed on
