# The Lone Ranger (2013 film)

The Lone Ranger is a 2013 action western film in which Native American warrior Tonto recounts the untold tales that transformed John Reid, a man of the law, into a legend of justice.
    Directed by Gore Verbinski. Written by Justin Haythe, Ted Elliott, and Terry Rossio.
The story unfolds as Tonto recounts the adventures that led to the unlikely partnership between him and Reid. The duo takes on greed and corruption, particularly focusing on the railroad construction that is displacing Native American tribes and disrupting the natural order of the region. The movie blends action, humor, and drama to explore themes of justice and revenge, while also questioning the historical portrayal of Native American figures in Western cinema

## John Reid

* Wrong brother?
* I boxed in law school.
* [being chained with Tonto] No.
* [Shouting to Tonto while finding Butch Cavendish] What?! Where's the silver?

## Tonto

* I do not fear what comes next.
* Kemosabe.
* [Shouting to John after he saved the passengers] Where is girl?!

## Latham Cole

* [At the ceremony to give a speech to the people of Colby] My friends and citizens of Colby, I've asked you here today so you can see at firsthand what I believe to be the single most important enterprise under God. The unification of this great country of ours by iron rail. To the Comanche, I say you have nothing to fear. As long as there is peace between us, all the land treaties shall be honored. But to the outlaw, those who prey upon the weak, make no mistake, law and order has come to the Wild West. Which is why I am bringing notorious outlaw and Indian-killer, Butch Cavendish here to Colby to hang for his crimes. The future is bright, ladies and gentlemen, and it's just around the bend.
