Oh, it's for boots, Mr. Parker.
21
Wow, those are some six inch heels you got on there.
22
These are for dealing with the cows and the cattle and things.

They don't look practical for cattle, rancher.
24
Well, no, they're not practical, but you know my...

31
I just heard people saying them down on the farm, so now I say it too.
32
So you're here for Annabelle already?
33
I was wondering if she wanted to come out, I mean...
34
Daddy, who's downstairs at the front door?
35
Oh, Chuck, there she is.
36
It's your friend, Butch Joseph.
37
I just mostly go by Butch.
38
Well, hey there, Annabelle Apple of my eye, my delightful daughter, who could never do any wrong.
39
Who could never do any wrong.
40
Daddy, you always sound so terrifying when you say that.
41
Here she is.
42
I guess you two want to have a little conversation, little girls gossip, little tea party, little chin wag, little wine Friday,
43
little spill up the gossip.
44
Most of those, yeah.
45
We're just gonna go out into town, ain't we?
46
Just gonna go see what kind of trouble.
47
We're going into town!
48
Yeah, we're just gonna see what kind of trouble we can get ourselves in.
49
Am I right?
50
I was getting...
51
Messed around.
52
Well, I didn't mean trouble.
53
No, I meant good lady like things like cow cow handling and finding ourselves...
54
Looking at dresses?
55
Looking at dresses and finding husbands.
56
Our favorite activities, Mr. Parker.
57
Well as you are both 18 year old women, those are two fantastic activities.
58
Yes, sir.
59
Yes, indeed.
60
And I'm sure that if you want to do anything else, as you know, I approve of all lifestyles.
61
But there's one thing that I can't abide.
62
Annabelle, you're gonna go into town with Butch.
63
You're gonna look at dresses, maybe look at husbands, and maybe do something else which I'm completely accepting of.
64
But you know there is one thing that you must not do.
65
You know what it is, don't you, Annabelle?
66
Don't say it out loud.
67
Make friends with a wolf.
68
Not that.
69
Annabelle, there are two things you must not do.
70
Listen to Butch.
71
They have good ideas.
72
I always listen to Butch.
73
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
74
What was that?
75
What was that noise?
76
I was just a friendly hand gesture, Mr. Parker.
77
I know your rules.
78
I'm sorry, Mr. Parker.
79
Do you know what'll happen if Annabelle gets a gun?
80
Do you know what happened last time Annabelle got a gun?
81
Yes, Mr. Parker, yes I do.
82
Look at me, Butch. With both your eyes.
83
Now I like you, girl.
84
I like you very much, Mr. Parker, too, I do.
85
You're good for my daughter?
86
Yeah, I know.
87
You're gonna find a dresser, a husband, or maybe something else, and I'm totally fine with that.
88
She's my best friend.
89
That's okay, I know that you like her.
90
You're not my best friend, but I like you.
91
Do not let that girl get her hands on a firearm.
92
No, sir, I will not.
93
Don't you worry.
94
You look at me and you think, firearms?
95
Nope.

146
But I can't do that.
147
You want to hear it?
148
Act a propeller.
149
The woman with a gun.
150
Sounds like you're looking for a woman with a gun.
151
Ah, yep.
152
That was a...
153
Do you want to cheer yourself up?
154

156
Just give it a go.
157
Just give it that give that a suck come on come on come on give that balloon a suck
158
So I wanted you looking for the fall of romantic attachment with or someone that you have some sort of revenge
159
A night!
160
It happened a couple of weeks back.
161
Yeah.
162
No one's gonna offer me nothing.
163
There you go, you can have some if you want something.
164
There you go.
165
Uh, oh.
166
No effect on me.
167
Something happened to...
168
Something happened to you right back?
169
Yeah!
170
It was a bank robbery.
171
And I was watching it with my own eyes.
172
Whose ass eyes would you be watching it with?
173
Don't go behind the ball.
174
And I remember running away from the scene.
175
They were beautiful...
176
Beautiful!
177
Beautiful!
178
Woman!
179
She was with another woman and they ran away.
180
How do I get back while we're reading?
181
They scared everyone, they can't reappear.
182
You know when you start to see someone and you think it's love at first sight?
183
Well, that's how I met my wife.
184
That's how I got that bond raiser of a dollar right there.
185
Well, yeah.
186
I'd love to find someone like that, you know.
187
When you finally see that woman again, if you ever do happen to meet her, what are you gonna say to confess your love?
188
I mean, you gotta have some sort of line prepared.
189
Yeah, what are you gonna say?
190
Huh?
191
It was just a line!
192
What do you mean?
193
What do you mean?
194
Oh, this one's a delayed one as well, I think.
195
What do you mean?
196
She's been in the same balloon the entire time.
197
Well, you're in this office, at least some sort of dangerous woman if she's going out there robbing banks.
198
I mean, you want to make sure that you're not going to get yourself shot.
199
I know, but I like that danger.
200
I love that danger.
201
You have a lot of unresolved trauma.
202
Maybe, but I crave it.
203
It's the kind of woman that I want.
204
It's true.
205
True.
206
Hey, how much do I owe you?
207
It's all in the house, Henry.
208
You sure?
209
Next time you come in here, order two more shots.
210
One for you, and one for yourself. Because you...
211
Because Henry needs to get to know Henry.
212
And there ain't no better way to get to know someone than over a drink.
213
I'm not a fucking idiot.
214
You ride that horse so well?
215
Thanks Josie.
216
You can call me, bud.
217
You look real...
218
You look real purdy tonight.
219
I mean, I mean today.
220
I mean, not purdy, you know.
221
Idiot.
222
Oh, Josie, that was kind of hard.
223
I'm sorry, I don't know my own strength.
224
It's from dealing with a catalog day.
225
Maybe we should slow these horses down, but slightly too, slightly too- Slow down, slow down, slow down.
226
Time for highway toll, highway toll.
227

329

331
We're nearly at the city gates!
332

336

337
We gotta make the jump!
338
Come on!
339
The girl with a girl!
340
What a lovely day.
341
I sure hope my daughter's enjoying our time out there with Butch.
342
Put another log on the fire.
343
I hope she hid in my words.
344
She should be home soon.
345
Otherwise it's just me talking about what my family did.
346
Oh, that's so hoarse now.
347
Annabelle, I can hear you panting from outside.
348
Uh, yeah, yeah, it was just a little struggle tying the horse up.
349
It was being a bit difficult.
350
Did you manage to find a husband or a dress?
351
Uh, uh, uh, yeah.
352
Really?
353
Come on in, you sound flustered.
354
Hey, Daddy.
355
Annabelle?
356
Mm-hmm?
357
Missing the shoe?
358
Oh, silly me.
359
When I was trying on the dress, I must have forgot to put it back on.
360
You mean you rode in stirrups all the way back home and didn't notice you were missing the shoe?
361
Well, you see, I was so in love with a man I met that I, um...
362
Sweetie, it's okay, I know.
363
You know?
364
I've known since you were about eight years old.
365
Daddy, what do you mean?
366
You're a lesbian.
367
It's okay.
368
Mama was the same.
369
Yeah, she didn't really discover that about herself until she was in her mid-forties, but that's why she didn't live here anymore.
370
She was finding out who she really is over in San Francisco.
371
And I know that, well, I don't want to assume, but a lot of your activities and a lot of your interests and the fact that, you know, I mean, I'm not saying it's stereotypical,
372
but I just always suspected that you also might be a lesbian.
373
And you hang around with Butch an awful lot, and Bush, you know, I think Bush might have know this, but I think he might be, or they might be, or she might be.
374
It's just she, Daddy.
375
Oh, well, give her time.
376
So I know that you know when she comes over, they come over, she comes over here talking about how you're going out looking for husbands.
377
That might not be strictly true.
378
Now you tell me if...
379
Annabelle?
380
What? Do I smell...
381
...gumpowder?
382
Do I smell what the Rock is cooking?
383
I don't think...
384
Annabelle, have you been robbing banks again?
385
You promised me that that was a one-time thing.
386
I'm gonna go out to your horse and I'm gonna check that saddlebag.
387
And if I find a dollar bills in there...
388
Daddy, I just don't know how to tell Butch how I feel.
389
And every time I try to tell her, what comes out of my mouth instead is, let's rob a bank.
390
And I hope that maybe in the excitement of robbing the bank, in the bank I might tell her how I really feel
391
because in the bank I'm wearing a mask so it feels safe
392
and so is she
393
because she don't feel safe saying it neither I think she
394
might feel the same way Annabelle you are the most beautiful thing
395
that I've ever seen in this world no every daddy has to say
396
that to his daughter it's like the fucking law or something that might be true That may be true.
397
That may be true.
398
But if Butch doesn't see you without that mask...
399
Oh, I was still wearing it.
400
That was the other clue.
401
Here's your words and doesn't feel the same way.
402
The rejection is hard.
403
When your mother left, I did not take it well at first.
404
But then I realized, you know, things change.
405
Change is okay.
406
Robbing banks is not okay.
407
You're right, Daddy.
408
I need to tell Butch how I feel.
409
Yes, you do.
410
Goodbye.
411
Who's there?
412
Who's there?
413
Just give my heart a little back.
414
Oh my god.
415
Where is the girl with the gun?
416
Oh my god, I'm with a lunatic.
417
A musical lunatic.
418
Officer McGillicuddy, you gonna take this one?
419
I think I'll take this one for myself.
420
Thank you.
421
All right.
422
I want the other guy.
423
I want the other guy.
424
He looks pliable.
425
You need someone to play bad cop.
426
I'm no good at that.
427
I really want the other guy.
428
Who there, take his blindfold off me.
429
I was once blind.
430
But now I can see.
431
Ah, blinding light.
432
Because the girl with the gun is the one for me.
433
This shoe.
434
It doesn't smell that good!
435
It smells so good!
436
I've been waiting- It smells so good!
437
I've been waiting my whole life to find that woman. And now...
438
The Lord has put her upon me.
439
And I have to find her.
440
You stay away from her.
441
You stay away, okay? Or what?
442
I'd never tell.
443
She's free.
444
And we were going to be free together.
445
We were going to take that money and leave.
446
Her daddy never would have understood.
447
And we were going to be free together.
448
Where is the girl?
449
I tell you.
450
Come closer.
451
You can...
452
This is a good distance.
453
You would think so, but come closer.
454
I'm not sure if...
455
No, it's probably difficult for...
456
It's difficult.
457
A little bit closer.
458
Pssst!
459
That's how it's gonna be, isn't it?
460
You're gonna make difficult...
461
Come on now, Butch.
462
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
463
I didn't want to make this difficult.
464
Oh, he caught me.
465
But if I have to, I will.
466
Billy, bring out the helium.
467
Oh my god.
468
Some of here is the most powerful delayed helium.
469
Why have you got a pig full of helium?
470
He's in there, he's in there.
471
Sui!
472
Sui!
473
Oh, this is darker than I wanted!
474
No!
475
I never talk!
476
Doesn't matter!
477
Doesn't matter how happy- Doesn't matter how happy- How happy you make my voice!
478
Where is the girl with the gun?!
479
I'm a piano player.
480
I know who you are, Arthur.
481
I know who you are.
482
I would remind you.
483
I'm a piano player.
484
I know who you are, Arthur.
485
I know who you are, Arthur.
486
I know who you are.
487
I was reminding myself.
488
I just said who I am, so I remember who I am.
489
Why don't you sit down and tinkle the ivories for a bit?
490
I'm gonna sit on my chair, which is right here, where I left.
491
Give me a drink.
492
Oh, Henry.
493
I'm heading out of town.
494
Give me a drink.
495
Heading out...
496
Henry, do you know...
497
Just give me a drink!
498
Ding, ding, dong.
499
I'm going to that place across the bridge.
500
Across the bridge?
501
You're going.. you're leaving the city.
502
Give me another one.
503
Why did you throw that on the ground?
504
That's my nice shot!
505
Whoa!
506
TING!
507
Henry, whoa!
508
What's going on here?
509
Danny, somebody stole that pig full of helium.
510
That was my...
511
That was for my son's birthday party.
512
Yeah!
513
Just...
514
I just wanted to say, I can imagine a situation where you might genuinely think for some reason
515
that there was a pig full of helium in front of you.
516
And you might not be trying to cause trouble in saying that, but maybe that's genuinely what you saw.
517
Pling!
518
I just need a few drinks before I go, now give me another one!
519
Why are you leaving town in such a hurry?
520
I've got...
521
I found the girl.
522
The girl from the song?
523
Yeah, I know where she is.
524
Let's find out!
525
You may, uh, hear some high-pitched sounds over the next 24 hours.
526
Did you steal that pig for pull of helium for my daughter?
527
I did what I had to do.
528
You ruined the birthday party!
529
You told me Henry should speak to Henry, and Henry spoke to Henry, and Henry said, you get the girl that you want.
530
I'm drunk.
531
I'm drunk.
532
I'm drunk, Lou.
533
Henry.
534
Henry, if you've done something you regret, you're an officer of the law.
535
That could ruin your entire career.
536
I don't care anymore.
537
Why do you smell like a woman's shoe?
538
Sh-dunk.
539
Boardkeep, you don't need me to blow this guy away.
540
I don't know, Henry.
541
If you've done something that deserves to be blown away.
542
Sh-dunk.
543
I never liked the way you play that piano anyway.
544
Henry, what have you done?
545
You've gone mad!
546
I told you to have a conversation with yourself, but it turns out the other half of yourself is a dickhead.
547
Henry, I don't want you to wait in the upstairs room anymore.
548
Fine.
549
I don't need it anymore.
550
I'm not alone anymore.
551
I found her.
552
I think he's on a helium high.
553
Wait a minute.
554
Maybe the pig's still upstairs in this room.
555
Let's go check on it.
556
We should probably do something about this too.
557
I sure hope Butch is in.
558
Although her horse ain't here.
559
Moooo.
560
Moooo.
561
Her cow is, though.
562
Excuse me, darling.
563
Hm?
564
Uh...
565
Is this yours?
566
Um...
567
Stay.. stay on one side.
568
Uh.. uh...
569
Please.
570
Give me your foot.
571
That's not my.. that ain't my shoe.
572
Give me your foot.
573
I don't know who you are, sir.
574
Perfect in every way.
575
What?
576
I don't like this.
577
Butch!
578
Butch, are you in there?
579
Butch ain't coming.
580
You don't know that.
581
I don't?
582
No. Then what's this?
583
Sweep.
584
Well, I guess I'll check what's going on in the room upstairs that Henry's been staying in.
585
Oh good, we didn't kill the lesbians.
586
I mean, oh my god!
587
Oh, I'm sorry, ma'am.
588
He's going after Annabelle!
589
I don't know who that is!
590
Annabelle, she's the most beautiful, most perfect woman in the world!
591
That's what Henry was saying!
592
Get me a horse!
593
She's out of action right now.
594
And she won't be coming back, but we don't need her.
595
We only need each other.
596
I don't know that that's her hairband.
597
I don't know that...
598
This isn't her hairband?
599
Nope.
600
You're just trying to scare me.
601
Goddamn motherfucker took my tie!
602
I love that tie!
603
Toll please, toll please!
604
Here you two!
605
Oh fuck!
606
Oh fight, fight!
607
And shi- Oh my god.
608
Flying through the air! Is that?
609
It can't be! you want to go with a gun I'm
610
Here's a girl with a more fucking gun!
611
I can feel pain!
612
I'll take my own full of helium and I'll just Annabelle,
613
we gotta go before your daddy gets here.
614
You'll never understand.
615
Annabelle, I told you, just tell her.
616
Stop playing with guns.
617
Well, thank you.
618
You know her a little better with a tire. Of course.
619
The only thing I want holding on around my neck.
620
No it ain't Butch.
621
What do you mean?
622
You want me.
623
And I want you.
624
As best friends.
625
No Butch.
626
No. As riding compadres.
627
No Butch. As co-conspirators. As lovers Butch.
628
You're joking.
629
You're not joking.
630
Your dad's kind of, he's not watching, but...
631
He's kind of looming.
632
Sorry, I just wish your mother was here to see this.
633
Mama was a lesbian too, you see.
634
A lesbian too?
635
Like us.
636
I am a lesbian.
637
We shouldn't be afraid to say it.
638
So say it.
639
We're lesbians.
640
You're damn right.
641
We're lesbians.
642
We are lesbians!
643
Annabelle!
644
Annabelle, you were, ever since you were a little girl, was always incredibly quick with a gun.
645
But it's time to put those quick fingers to a better use.
646
Usually I would be outraged but pass it.
647
We are currently being watched in six continents.
648
Nobody quite opened it!
About This Lesson
In questa lezione, praticherai l'italiano ascoltando e ripetendo un dialogo improvvisato dal video "Never Give Annabelle A Gun". Imparerai a capire l'intonazione colloquiale, le espressioni informali e a seguire un ritmo veloce ma naturale. È perfetto per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la capacità di rispondere in tempo reale, usando il metodo shadowing in inglese.
Parole e Frasi Chiave
- "You pull them off": Espressione usata per dire che qualcosa sta bene a qualcuno (es. "Questi stivali ti stanno bene").
- "Troubles on my mind": Significa "ho dei problemi in testa" o "sono preoccupato/a".
- "Little chin wag": Espressione colloquiale per "chiacchierata leggera" o "confabulario".
- "Firearm": Parola formale per "arma da fuoco" (utile per il vocabolario specifico).
- "I approve of all lifestyles": "Apprezzo tutti i modi di vivere" (espressione per mostrare tolleranza).
Consigli per la Pratica
Per esercitarti con il shadowing, segui questi passaggi: 1) Ascolta un frammento del video 2-3 volte per capire il senso e il ritmo. 2) Ripeti immediatamente dopo, cercando di imitare l'intonazione e la pronuncia (anche le pause!). 3) Focus su espressioni come "You look real pretty tonight" o "Well, you pull them off" per esercitare la fluidità. Il dialogo è veloce ma colloquiale, quindi è perfetto per migliorare la reazione veloce. Usa il metodo shadowspeak: ripeti mentre guardi il video, senza fermarti. Così imparerai a parlare inglese in modo più naturale e a gestire le interruzioni tipiche delle conversazioni reali. Ricorda: la chiave è la costanza! Anche 10 minuti al giorno con i video ti aiuteranno a migliorare la pronuncia inglese in modo significativo.
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
