What 1967 movie gives us the quote, "Mister, you have got a lot of hard bark on you comin' down here like this. Now, you put two holes in me and I owe you."?

Twentieth Century Fox's "Hombre" is an excellent and engaging western. This 1967 movie has the specific quote, "Mister, you have got a lot of hard bark on you comin' down here like this. Now, you put two holes in me and I owe you." There was no tougher or more formidable film western heavy than Richard Boone. He was a fine, respected actor, and had a strong screen presence. As Cicero Grimes in this film, he forcefully spoke the previous quote to Paul Newman as John Russell.

Russell has no emotion (except anger) and little vitality in this movie; he is totally alienated from mankind, and he himself is 'alienating' others as well. Here, he is a white man raised by the Indians, who call him "Hombre". He clearly identifies with the Native Americans.

By choosing to isolate himself from white society, which he despises, Russell lives on a reservation and looks and dresses like an Indian. But he is persuaded to cut his hair and return to civilization to take over some property. Next, he winds up on a stagecoach with white passengers. They learn his background and force him to ride with the driver. Not quite an Indian, and banished by whites, he is the classic outcast in no man's land. Ironically, later in time, Russell is the only one capable of rescuing the passengers from bandits and guiding them to safety. The obvious drama here depends on whether John Russell will accept any responsibility for the other people who have come to rely on and trust him. Does bias win here?
